Chapter 1

*The first few scenes are just edited scenes from the episode 'Keep Calm and Flutter On' so obvious spoilers, if you want to skip this just scroll down till you see the mark*

"You know I think princess Celestia was right to single you out as the one who could reform me" Discord joked. Fluttershy's house was spinning, except for the one couch in the center that Discord was laying on, everything in the house was falling up and down. Fluttershy was flying next to the couch to keep from falling and Angel was helplessly running to keep up with the house.

"You're off to such a good start that I'm seriously considering actually being reformed" Discord lied, earning a smile from Fluttershy. She believed she was actually getting somewhere with him, she wasn't going to let the princess down.

"Fluttershy! Fluttershy can you hear me?" A voice yelled outside.

"Goodness, I hear Twilight" Fluttershy said, catching Angel and flying outside to meet Twilight. She spotted her with Spike looking up at her home, worried for what happened.

"Fluttershy, what's going on, are you ok?" Twilight asked when she spotted Fluttershy.

"We're fine" Fluttershy said, placing Angel down. "Everything is going great isn't it angel?" Angel responded by dizzily hopping away.

"He's completely out of control Fluttershy, this is why I brought a backup plan" Twilight said with a smile on her face.

"A backup plan?" Fluttershy asked.

"Yes" Twilight said, pulling out a book. "I found a reformation spell that I'm sure will work on Discord."

"Yeah so you don't have to deal with him anymore" Spike added.

"Thanks Twilight but there's no need, we're making great progress" Fluttershy happily said. Both Twilight and Spike looked up at Fluttershy's floating and spinning home.

"Seriously?" They both asked.

"I'm earning his trust by giving him a little space to be himself" Fluttershy said with a smile. She was so sure she could reform him.

"I hate to break it to you, but he used that 'space to be himself' to tear out all the reforming spells in the library" Spike mentioned, pulling out a book a book that had a ripped page on it.

"That would explain the paper eating" Fluttershy thought out loud.

"He ate them!?" Twilight yelled, groaning loudly.

"Where did you find that spell then?" Fluttershy asked.

"I sent a letter to my BBBF asking him to send me a reformation spell from the Canterlot Archives, I also cast a spell so Discord couldn't mess with it" Twilight said smiling, feeling she outwitted Discord.

"Your, BBBF?" Fluttershy asked, she forgot what that meant. Twilight sighed loudly.

"Big Brother Best Friend" Twilight clarified.

"Oh, well don't worry, we don't need a spell, he's already seriously considering being reformed, he said so" Fluttershy said, satisfied with herself.

"And you believed him?" Twilight asked.

"If I'm going to be his friend, I have to start by giving him the benefit of the doubt. Tell you what, bring all the ponies over for a dinner party this evening and I'll be hit manners would've really improved by then" Fluttershy said, looking very happy and sounding as excited as Pinkie. Twilight looked down, still being doubtful of the draconequus.

"I'll even get him to put the cottage back on the ground first, we won't need that spell you'll see" Fluttershy said, flying up to her home. Twilight sighed.

"Alright, dinner it is" Twilight said, she had a bad feeling about this.


"I can't believe where're having a dinner party with Discord!" Rainbow yelled.

"This evening is sure to be a disaster" Rarity added, looking down at her dress. "Glad I didn't bother wearing my fanciest outfit" she added.

"Fluttershy thinks this is the way to reform Discord and asked us to give it a chance" Twilight told them, she had complete faith in Fluttershy, but this was Discord. "Besides, if anything goes wrong we can just cast the spell on him" she added.

"Don't ya'll worry, Twilight and Fluttershy know what they're doing" Applejack said.

"Oh our pony guests!" Discord yelled from the door. He was dressed in a butler suit and had a fake mustache on. This was going to be a bumpy night.


"Fluttershy don't you see what he's doing?" Rainbow asked, kicking away a few candles that were still attacking her. "He's playing innocent with you so you never agree to use the spell on him!" Rainbow accused. Discord arched an eyebrow at the mentioning of a spell, he guessed she meant the elements of harmony.

"Oh that's a bit harsh isn't it?" Discord asked, looking at the scene before him. The soup terrine was gushing soup at Twilight when Rainbow tossed a bowl over it to stop it, the candles still dancing around her.

"You see what I'm saying right Fluttershy?" Rainbow asked, Fluttershy had a worried look on her face but didn't respond.

"I think this is enough Fluttershy" Twilight said loudly. "It's clear to all of us that Discord has no intention of being reformed" she added.

"I said I would consider it" Discord said, shrugging to Fluttershy as if it wasn't his fault. Although he just said that to get Fluttershy to be more lenient towards his behavior, he wondered how much she'd let him get away with.

"I think it's time we used the spell" she said, preparing to take out a book. Fluttershy didn't respond

"Yeah let's just use it before he can trick us!" Rainbow agreed, Fluttershy still didn't respond. "Fluttershy!?" Rainbow yelled.

"You know what I see? I see Discord's far from perfect, but I also see none of you giving him a chance!" Fluttershy accused, looking at everypony with disapproving eyes. The reactions she got was a mixture of shock and disapproving quotes like 'come on!' and 'what's gotten into you?'

"Why do you keep cutting him so much slack?" Rainbow asked. Fluttershy paused a bit, as if trying to figure it out herself.

"Because that's what friends do" she said, placing a hoof around Discord. This shocked Discord, did she say friend?


*Stop skipping here! If you were doing that.*

"You see? She wants to have fun with me because we're 'friends'" Discord mocked, Fluttershy lost some of her confidence. "She can't use the elements against me because we're 'friends'" he mocked again, Fluttershy looking angrier. "I'm free forever!" he announced, laughing evilly at this. Fluttershy has had enough.

"Not. Your. Friend!" she (somewhat) shouted, tossing the skates Discord had given to her.

"Who cares, I can do whatever I want whenever I want, I'm Discord, the master of chaos" Discord said, sounding a little insulted and teleporting next to Fluttershy, who was still walking away.

"You think you can boss Discord around? You think I'm just going to turn all this back because you say so because if I don't I'll lose the one friend I ever had?" Discord asked, suddenly stopping when he realized what he said.

"Fluttershy, are you ok?" Twilight asked walking to Fluttershy.

"Twilight, go ahead and use it" Fluttershy responded.

"What? But I thought you promised" Twilight started.

"I promised not to use my element, but you didn't promise to use that spell" Fluttershy told her, Discord was only focused on the skates, representing the friend he just lost.

"Alright" Twilight said, feeling bad for Fluttershy. She was so sure she could reform Discord, but she failed. Her horn started to glow.

"Well played Fluttershy, well played" they heard Discord say. Discord turned and saw Twilight's horn glowing, he was expecting an attack but quickly tossed that idea when he started glowing. "What?" Discord thought out loud.

"I'm sorry Discord, but you left us no choice" Twilight said, focusing her spell on Discord.

"Whatever this is" Discord started but realized he couldn't move his fingers, he couldn't escape. "Fluttershy I thought you promised" Discord pleaded, trying to make Fluttershy stop them.

"I promised to not use my element, Twilight is using a reforming spell on you" Fluttershy said, not turning to him.

"Reforming spell?" Discord asked then started laughing. "You think a simple reforming spell will be enough to" Discord started but stopped when he felt the magic around him intensify.

"You won't be laughing for long" Twilight said, feeling confident as she focused more on the spell.

"Wait! We can work this out!" Discord pleaded. The spell was nearly complete. "Please I- wait am I begging? What are you doing to me!?" Discord shouted, he felt himself slipping away. Discord's whole body started to glow, then a bright light emitted all around Discord.

"Nooooo!" Everypony heard him yell, before the light brightened more, making everypony cover their eyes.

"Did it work?" Applejack asked, looking when the brightness cleared up. Discord was laying on the ice, looking like he was knocked out. Fluttershy finally turned around and gasped at what she saw.

"Discord are you ok?" Fluttershy asked loudly as she ran to the unconscious draconequus, almost slipping on the ice. "Discord?" Fluttershy went, looking very worried, she then turned to Twilight.

"Is he..." Fluttershy started, looking a bit scared.

"I don't think so Fluttershy" Twilight said, approaching Fluttershy. Her spell wasn't meant to kill, was it?

"You think the princess will be mad?" Spike asked, skating towards them.

"Did I just become a witness to a crime?" Pinkie asked as she skated towards them with her skates (that she somehow had with her), she didn't look worried at all.

"What about the farm?" Applejack asked, slowly walking to them. Rainbow and Rarity followed close behind.

"Oh I hope he's ok, I shouldn't let you use that spell, what kind of friend am I?" Fluttershy asked, tearing up a bit.

"Wait, so we did kill him?" Rainbow asked, making Fluttershy flinch a bit.

"Oh dear, what do we do now?" Rarity asked. She couldn't go to jail, she had to watch her sister and the shop.

"The cakes won't like it when I tell them what I saw" Pinkie said, looking down at Discord.

"We didn't kill him!" Twilight yelled, being irritated with everypony. Everypony froze when they heard Discord groan a bit, then slowly move his hands. Everypony but Fluttershy backed up when he started to rise to his feet.

"Discord?" Fluttershy asked quietly, wiping the few tears in her eyes. Discord shook his head a bit, wiped his eyes, and finally looked down at Fluttershy. Everypony intensely watched, did the spell work or not?

"Oh Fluttershy, it's good to see you" Discord said smiling. Fluttershy looked at Discord confusingly, as if he was a completely new person. "What's the matter?" Discord asked, scratching his head.

"Discord, are you ok?" Fluttershy asked, the others slowly walking next to her.

"Why yes thank you for asking, although my head hurts a little" Discord said, placing a hand on his head.

"Did you, thank me?" Fluttershy asked, she doesn't remember when he truly thanked her for something.

"Of course, why?" Discord asked, looking as confused as the others.

"Nothing, you're welcome" Fluttershy said with a smile.


I hate writing out something I've watched, at least I finished this. Next chapter will be sure to include some new things. Also I'm not completely sure of Discord's species' name, I assume it is draconequus.
