A New kind of Chaos

The new girl

Diamond awoke to find herself on the edge of a bed. She couldn't seem to remember much about what happened the previous night, until she looked down. She found she was falling out of the bed. She tried to open her wings before she hit the ground, but was not fast enough. She hit the tile floor with a huge splat.

When she opened her eyes, and looked up. The furniture was all over the walls and on the ceiling. She watched the room spin, but though that this was in her mind. She watched the room change and materialize into a dining room. "What just happened?" asked Diamond.

"Oh, I thought you would want some breakfast. But if you don't want any..." said a deep male voice. Diamond remembered everything from last night. She remembered the snow, the castle, and Discord. Diamond looked up to see the draconaquus.

"Discord, why did you do that?" asked Diamond.

"Because you are a disharmonious spirit. Is that not reason enough?" said Discord. He used his tail to lift her up from the floor, and set her on a chair at the hexagon shaped table.

"You don't have to point out that I am an example of disharmony." said Diamond, now using her hair to block her face.

"Why? Does it upset you?" asked Discord, now extending his neck to have his face right in front of Diamond's. She lifted her hair away from her face, to see Discord's face right in front of hers. This caused her to blush a bright red.

"Yes Discord, it does upset me." said Diamond, now getting a bit angry with Discord.

"Oh, sorry." said Discord, now retracing his neck. He sunk into his chair and held his lion paw and eagle talons together.

"Discord, I'm sorry I got a bit angry with you." Said Diamond. "I just never get as much chaos in my life anymore. Usually, if I want chaos, I need to make it myself. There has never been someone else to create chaos for me."

"Oh," said Discord, now sitting up. "If you want chaos, I can make chaos." He snapped his lion paw and eagle talons several times to make different foods appear on the table. None of these foods were normally acceptable for breakfast, but this felt better then a regular meal. There were salads with crystal berries, hay burgers, sandwiches, and fries.

"Discord, this is more lunch then breakfast." said Diamond.

"Did I not put a clock in your room?" said Discord, pointing to a wavy clock on the wall. It read 11:54.

"Oh, how long did I sleep?" asked Diamond.

"I can't remember. I found you last night around 3 in the morning." said Discord, holding his head in his lion paw.

"Yeah, I guess I haven't had a sense of time since Celestia banished me." Said Diamond, now looking down at her hooves.

"Celestia banished you! Why? You seem delightful!" said Discord.

"I don't want to talk about it." said Diamond, turning away from Discord's view.

"Okay then, you don't have to talk." Discord said. He made his eagle talon glow, as he touched her forehead. "Oh, I see..."

"What are you doing?" asked Diamond.

"You said you didn't want to talk about it, but you never said I couldn't see it." said Discord, now having a sly grin on his face.

"I guess you managed to find a loop hole there." said Diamond.

"It's okay Diamond. Celestia made me insane too." said Discord. He used this tail to pick her up off her chair. He turned the table full of food into a purple rug, with a normal fireplace in the corner.

"Discord, what about lunch?" asked Diamond.

"Oh, that can wait. You aren't really hungry, are you." said Discord, wrapping his tail around Diamond.

"I guess not..." said Diamond.

"No, you are hungry." Discord said, snapping his talons. He made a small bowl of popcorn appear in front of Diamond. Diamond accepted the random action, as she used her magic to lift some pieces of popcorn into her mouth.

"Not long ago," started Discord. Diamond rolled her eyes, knowing this would be a long story. "I fell in love with that pony. When she rejected me, I fell into a state of insanity. She then rose up against me with Luna and turned me to stone. Though the new bearers of harmony 'reformed' me."

"But how does that make us similar? After Celestia gave me magical abilities, I went insane." said Diamond.

"But didn't Celestia ever make you mad? I mean, that's the reason I went mad." said Discord.

"Maybe a few times, but I would never hurt her because of that." said Diamond. "But I have thought of it a few times before."

"See! It's Celestia's fault there are so many villains in Equestria." said Discord.

"So, now you're calling me evil?" said Diamond.

"What? No! I-I'm just saying... Wow, you got quite the temper on you." Said Discord, releasing Diamond from his grasp.

"No, I'm sorry. I'm just not used to talking to any pony without getting offended." said Diamond.

"Well, I'm no pony." Discord said, as he used the tuff on his tail to lift Diamond's head up. He looked into her eyes, her eyes were filled with tears. "Why are you crying?" he asked.

"I-I just didn't...want to...lose you...as a...friend." sniffled Diamond. She used her hooves to wipe her tears out of her eyes. Discord used his lion paw to wipe away the rest of the tears.

Discord was a bit taken back when he heard her use friend. The last time he heard some pony have trouble saying friend, was him. He did want her to think of his as more than a friend, but he knew that would take time. "Don't worry, I am still your friend." Discord said, holding her head in his lion paw.

"Really?" said Diamond.

"Really." said Discord. He used his tail to pull her into a hug. He expected her to pull away in rejection, but instead she accepted his hug.

Really, she just meet him. But if she wasn't mistaken, she would have known him her whole life.

"Well, maybe you should meet my other friends too." said Discord.

"What, you have other friends." said Diamond as she broke the hug.

"Yes, and they are ponies just like you. Doesn't that make you happy?" said Discord.

"I guess, but I don't always feel comfortable around other ponies. Ever since the Celestia event." Diamond said, turning away from Discord.

"Don't worry, I'll have Fluttershy arrange a dinner party so you can meet them and they can meet you." said Discord, trying to give Diamond a smile.

Diamond didn't want to disappoint one of her first real friends, so she wanted to say yes. Diamond huffed, "Only for you Discord."

"Wonderful! Splendid! Absolutely amazing! Thank you Diamond!" Discord said, taking her in a hug. Diamond silently worried to herself. 'What will his friends think of me? What if they report me to the princess? Maybe it's worth it for Discord.'
