She found herself in Canterlot, in a garden late at night. Staring at a statue, with the screaming face of her father. It looked like he was trying to shield himself.

"D-Daddy," She tried to reach the statue's foot, but it was too high up. "Daddy please!" She begged him to answer. She spun her propeller, and floated up to his face. "Wake up Daddy! Please wake up! I don't like this game!" She touched his stone face, but nothing happened.

"What am I supposed to do?" She landed on his shoulder, and hugged his neck. "This has been a horrible birthday... All the ponies were mean to me. I just wanted to play... Daddy?... I don't think you made me right." She clung to the statue as tightly as she could.

"Halt!" Somepony yelled as they ran over. It was a Stallion dressed in golden armor. He blinked, when he realized what was on the statue, wasn't one of Discord's hell monsters, but a child. He couldn't see her well in the dark, "Get down from there foal!" He urged. "If you accidentally break the statue, you'll release him all over again!"

"I will!?" She gaped. "Thanks for telling me!" She pulled her body in the opposite direction. Clinging to the stone, she pulled with all her might, but her tiny body couldn't get the statue to budge.

"What are you doing!?" The guard yelled, "Are you insane!?" He ran over to her to get her off, but she raised her hoof. The guard was lifted into the air, by an invisible force.

He gave a yelp of shock, before pulling out a whistle, and giving it a harsh blow. More guards quickly poured out from the castle.

"Not so fast!" She warped the plants around them, and grabbed at them with the roots. Before she began frantically punching the statue with her hoof.

"Kill it!" Somepony screamed. "It's one of Discord's monsters! Just look at it's eyes!"

"You won't stop me!" The little filly jerked her hoof. The magical static cling within it clashed together, causing a 'SNAP' sound. Suddenly many of the guards found themselves encased in living ice.

A hand formed from the tip of her tail hairs. It snapped and the guards behind her became ice as well.

"Just have to break this rock!" The filly stared up at the stone. Then raised her front hooves to the sky. Calling all the magic in her body, she gathered the clouds. She wasn't particularly good at weather manipulation, as that was some advanced magic, for non-pegasi. However, she believed that if she created a powerful enough lightning bolt, she could destroy the statue.

The guards started panicking at seeing an Earth pony use pegasus magic. "A demon! She's a demon!" The guards readied their bows.

The little abomination glared at the guards, as the arrows glinted in the moonlight. "I just wanted to play. I just want my daddy." She jerked her hooves. "I'll show all of you!"

"Enough!" A mighty voice echoed across the garden. A white Alicorn appeared in between the abomination and the guards.

The filly gasped as a yellow beam hit her storm, instantly dispelling it. The filly went limp, as she didn't have it in her to summon another. It had taken everything she had. She began to fall from the sky, but was encased in yellow energy. However, unlike the ponies it felt... warm... kind... the energy gently laid her on the ground before dissipating.

She weakly looked over, to see a giant horse. Definitely not a pony... her soul felt... big... The majestic white horse was beyond beautiful, and while she looked like a pony... she felt... different... her aura wasn't pony like at all. The Filly didn't know what it was supposed to be.

This was the first creature, besides her daddy, that had ever been nice to her. Even if she wanted her daddy back, some part of her really wanted to hear what this powerful mare had to say.

"That's enough." The tall mare scolded her guards. "What is wrong with you!" She demanded, "This is a child!"

"She's one of Discord's monsters," One of the guards insisted, "She was trying to release Discord."

"Even if she was trying to release all the monsters in TARTARUS, how dare you ATTACK a child with spears and arrows. Regardless of her power, she is clearly attempting to show you mercy." Her horn glowed yellow again, and all the guards were released from their frozen prisons. Revealing all were completely fine.

The guards looked around, many becoming shame faced, when they realized what their princess said was true. Their friends were merely put in some kind of stasis spell, not dead as they feared.

The Alicorn gave one last glare at her guards, before turning kinder eyes on the child. "Are you alright?" The filly backed away from her, panting heavily from the exhaustion of summoning such a mighty storm. "I won't hurt you," the Alicorn promised.

"Liar!" The filly accused. "You turned my daddy into a statue!"

"Your daddy?" the Alicorn puzzled, sparing a glance at Discord, "I see..." looking back to her. "You're a Demigod." She took a single step forward, and the filly tried to scamper away. The girl ended up falling down, and couldn't stand back up.

"Easy," the Alicorn picked her up, with her front leg. "You're suffering from magical exhaustion. It fatigues the body," she explained.

"I know what it does!" The filly snapped but was too weak to struggle.

"My name is Celestia," Said the Alicorn. "What's yours?"

"I..." The filly looked annoyed, before the realization hit her. "I... I don't have a name..." Her ears drooped sadly. "Daddy forgot to give me one."

Celestia turned a glare at Discord's Statue. "I see." She turned a far more compassionate eye back to the filly. "Well let's fix that, shall we? You have a very distinctive Cutie Mark, for such a young filly. Did your daddy give you that?"

"No..." The filly reluctantly admitted. "I earned it playing baseball. I was a pitcher,"

"So young to earn your cutie mark! You must be an extra special filly." Celestia smiled. "How about 'Screwball' for a name?"

The filly looked down and shrugged. "I guess..." Some part of her didn't like the name, because it reminded her of the foals that had chased her off. Still she didn't have it in her to complain, as she was lost in her thoughts. Why hadn't her daddy given her a name?

"Well come on Screwball." Celestia smiled, "It's late and your obviously tired."

I'll put you to bed in Spike's old nursery. He's my adoptive son, I share joint custody with the Sparkle Family. So he went off to live with his big sister, from that clan, in Ponyville." Celestia spoke soothingly, of such personal things... it couldn't help but put Screwball at ease.

"I'm sure he'll visit soon. Then You can meet him. Until then, I would like it if you stayed with me, for as long as you need."

"What about Daddy?" Screwball whined, "Are you going to leave him like that?"

Celestia looked back at the statue. "I'll see what I can do. Your father was very hard on the ponies, living in Ponyville. What he did was a very bad thing, and we are afraid he'll do it again, if he comes out of the statue."

"But…"

"But." Celestia smiled. "There may just be hope for him someday. We'll see what happens, okay?"

Screwball sighed and nodded. "Okay." She was willing to be patient. Maybe Celestia would be good to her after all. They made their way into the castle, for Screwball to begin her new life.
