Three days past as they headed west they were now somewhere deep in the White Tail Woods. Everything seem fine everyone was conversing and joking, Discord seemed to be back to his old tricks. This relieved everyone but they still didn't like it when they were at the receiving end of the prank.

As they laughed and had fun, there was a presence, Discord felt it right before he was going to prank Rarity. Discord happy, care-free smile faded to a snarl, his eyes losing their sparkle turning cold and hard as he scanned around searching for what was causing the strange feeling of being watched.

The first to notice his change of behavior was Fluttershy, worry shown on her face as she looked towards her friends who went deathly quiet. They noticed the change of Discord's mood knowing something was wrong. As they all crowded together looking towards the trees an arrow shot through the trees towards Fluttershy who was in the middle of the circle. Discord and Applejack saw the arrow, Applejack jumped in front of Fluttershy blocking the arrow with her shield. Discord then Stood in front of them both with his axe drawn, he stood defensively as he growled, glaring towards the direction of where the arrow had came from.

Another arrow shot through the air from a different spot, the arrow headed towards spike whose back was turned. With a gasp Rarity used her fans to blow the arrow away.

Eyes searched in every direction to get a glance of the one attacking them. Then ten arrows shot from behind pinkie and Rainbow, with a grunt Twilight waved her hand causing a shield to appear to protect them. Leaving her vulnerable, she was then shot in the shoulder, making her fall to her knees in pain.

"Oh my, It seems I missed, I won't miss next time." A feminine voice sound from the forest shadows.

"Show yaself! Ya coward!" Applejack yelled with fury.

"I am no coward peasant, this is just how I fight sense my weapon is the bow and arrow." The voice stated before another arrow was fired. Rainbow split the arrow with a swing of one off her swords.

"Seems pretty cowardly to me! Besides what are you even aiming at, you only got one of us because her guard was down!" Rainbow retorted as she pointed her sword toward Twilight who was being healed by Fluttershy, as Discord stood in a defensive position to make sure they weren't sneaked attacked.

"Who said I was trying to hit you,I only hit purple girl because she's a high level mage. No, my objective wasn't to hit you but surround you." The voice explained before the arrows that were embedded into the ground began to release a green mist into the air.

Discord's eye widened as he slightly trembled, "No, not this again." He turn toward Fluttershy and Twilight to see them already affected by the mist of the arrow laying next to them.

"No! Fluttershy!" He went to reach out towards her but the mist covered her body making him back up. He looked around seeing he was surrounded by the green fog, he could hear everyone else falling on to the ground as the mist took them. Discord tried to stay strong but he remembered what happened last time and fear took over him as he trembled.

"Aw, the poor thing is scared, alone and unloved."

"I am not alone and I am loved you just knocked out everyone!" Discord roared even though scared he still knew he had to fight.

"What if I told that was an illusion and that they abandoned you when they saw the mist. Leaving you, not caring what would happen to you."

"Well, I would say you're lying because they would never do that to me!"

"Well, your parents did so what would stop them from doing the same."

Discord froze looking to the ground, his parents left him to go fight a war but were killed in a blizzard leaving him to defend for himself in a world that hated his kind.

" Your parent didn't love you, they rather been dead than be with you."

Tears pricked his eyes, 'was this true? Did they really want to die than be with me.'

"So who said those girls and dragon boy wouldn't do the same thing. Especially that light pink hair girl, I mean who would love a monster like you? I bet if given the chance she would leave you, no one could love you."

Discord tears silently fell as a scowl formed onto his face, lifting his head he screamed. "Shut up! My parents did love me! My friends wouldn't leave me! And Fluttershy does love me!"

"Love is a lie"

Discord's pupils shrank in terror as a shadow of women in a torn and bloody wedding dress stood in front of him. She had no features but if you looked long enough you could see a slight frown on the shadows face.

The voice from early came from the solemn figure," I should know, I was once human and was in love but I was killed by the one I loved. I found out love doesn't exist, love is an illusion. So just face it, if I was killed by my own love how could someone like you be loved?"

Trembling, Discord fell to his knees as he stared at the features being in red and white, tears falling from his eyes as he faced with a terrifying truth. "W-who are you?" Is all he could say to the ghostly figure.

"My name is Loveless Ruler…" She pointed her bow and arrow to his forehead, "I'm the one who's going to release you from this fails love life."

Before she could realise the arrow into his head, a pink and yellow mass sucker punched her, knocking her to the ground. Looking towards her ofender, Loveless gaze landed onto the sea colored eyes of Fluttershy, who glared at her. "You bitch aren't gonna lay a finger on my man!"

Loveless slowly got up, her head tilted in confusion, "How did you get break free from the illusion mist?"

Fluttershy glared as she pointed at Loveless acussendly, " Because of your big fucking voice woke me up! I almost fell for your illusion of no one loving me but I knew that was not true for if it were I WOULDN'T FUCKING BE HERE!"

Discord stared wide eyed at Fluttershy, shocked of what she was saying or really how she worded it. 'I must be brushing off on her...' He looked at her questioning what she meant, then it struck him like one of Loveless's arrows. Tears stopped falling as determination grew in his eyes as he stood up, Fluttershy noticed this and looked at him concern filled her eyes.

"Are you alright you're not hurt are you?" Fluttershy going back to her normal demeanor.

Smirking, Discord approached her, "I'm just fine thanks to you." When he was close enough he grab her waist and smashed his lips to hers, making Fluttershy go wide eyed and blushed profoundly. Realising what was going on she wrapped her arms around his neck to deepen the kiss.

Loveless Ruler growled at the show of affection, she lifted her bow to shoot an arrow at the couple but then a strong gust of wind blow forcing her to try to stand up straight instead of shooting the arrow. The wind blow away the mist that was still in the air, once the mist cleared it revealed it was Rainbow who used her wings to blow the fog away. With her stood the rest of the group.

"Really guys!? Why are you two sucking each others faces off in a time like this!?" Rainbow screamed from frustration.

Holding a blushing Fluttershy to his armored chest Discord just shrugged, "I don't know… felt right to do so."

Growling, Rainbow retorted "Well if it weren't for me your little stunt of yours would of gotten yourselves killed!"

Discord blankly stared at her, "I knew she was going to shoot and I knew you were awake so I took the opportunity to kiss my lover thank you."

" Why you motherfuc-" Rainbow's shoulder was grabbed by Applejack who just shook her head.

An inhuman screech was then sounded by Loveless, angered that she was ignored, she shot an arrow at the couple but Rarity jumped between the arrow and it's target. She used her fan to create a huge gush of wind change the arrows direction making it charge back towards the one who shot it. The arrow went through Loveless's left arm making her drop the bow and collapsing to the ground in pain just like she did to Twilight earlier. Rarity was about to attack with the final blow but a red figure walked past her making her freeze in a mid-attack pose.

Discord strolled up to the fallen watcher with his axe on shoulder, his eyes shadowed by his bangs. Loveless shook in fear from how cold he looked, when he stood before her, his shadowed face showed no emotion.

"You said there was no love here in this world for you."

She tried to back away from him as fear washed over her, "Please no! Please forgive me!"

His red and yellow eyes shone when his bangs were brushed away by a ghostly breeze, his eyes cold and hard, he showed no mercy. " Let me release you from your worthless, loveless life." He raised his axe above his head.

"No, oh god no, Please NO!"

The axe fell and split her head in half as blood spat out onto Discord's cold, emotionless face. He dislodged his axe from the broken, bloody head.

"May you find love in death."

He turned around towards the group, all were shocked of what they just witnessed. Fluttershy then proceeded to faint, Discord was at her side in a flash, catching her before she hit the ground. Picking her up bridal style, he looked to the group making them flinch under his gaze.

"Can someone please find our rides? We're gonna rest here for the night."
