"The Jabberwocky...it's coming!!!" Discord said with a look of fear across his face.
"THE JABBERWOCKY?!?!?!!!" Everyone cried out.
Queen Rarity looked terrified and rushed passed Discord to look outside, and once she did, the Jabberwocky was already setting fire to some of the villages!! People screaming and shrieking once they gazed upon the Jabberwocky's hideous face. It then let out a loud, powerful roar before it breathes fire all over the village.
"Dear Celestia!!!" Queen Rarity muttered.
"Queen Rarity, what should we do?" Rainbow Dash asked.
But Queen Rarity didn't answer as she saw the Jabberwocky breathe fire upon some of the villages. She quickly snapped out of her trance and turned to everyone with a serious face.
"Rainbow Dash, I want you to gather up your army and attack the Jabberwocky! We need everything we have to prevent this creature from killing anymore civilians!" Queen Rarity explained as Rainbow Dash nodded and left the room to gather her army. "Applejack and Pinkie Pie, I want you two to find any survivors that managed to escape the village. Everyone else grab a weapon! We need to defend ourselves the best way that we can to defeat this monster." Everyone missed and ran out of the room to do their jobs. Discord was about to run out of the room until Queen Rarity put a hand on his shoulder. "Discord I need to talk to you separately."
Queen Rarity pulled Discord aside and looked at him straight into his eyes.
"Discord, your job is to take Fluttershy, go into the Everfree forest and make sure she goes through the portal to get to her world." Queen Rarity explained.
"B-But wait! That means...she has to leave...f-forever?!?!" Discord asked as tears starred to form in his eyes and his throat began to hurt.
"Discord listen to me, under no circumstances you let Fluttershy stay here. We're in the middle of a battle where millions of people can get hurt and possibly die!! You must do everything you can to get her through that portal, is the only way Wonderland has a chance of surviving and for Fluttershy to live. If she stays here any longer than the Jabberwocky will find her and kill her!! Do you understand?" Queen Rarity explained.
As Discord listened to Queen Rarity's words, he couldn't help but think that he had to say goodbye to Fluttershy forever. But he couldn't let her stay here! What future could they have if they manage to survive the Jabberwocky's reign?! If sending Fluttershy away back to her world is the only way she'll be safe, then so be it then.
"I understand." Discord replied.
"Then grab a weapon and find a horse, because you need to get to that portal as fast as you can before the Jabberwocky finds you." Queen Rarity said as she turned to walk away.
"But wait what are you going to do?!" Discord asked.
"I'm going to protect my kingdom." Queen Rarity replied as she grabbed a sword that was golden with a red and fire-like ora around it.
Discord nodded as he ran out of the throne room, to grab a sword and find a horse. Once he was out of the throne room he saw tons of soldiers thinking all over the place and getting ready for Wonderland's biggest battle in history. Discord pushed through the guards to find a rack full of weapons and swords, all brand new and ready for battle. He grabbed one that was sharp and silver with an iron handle and a red ruby right in the center. He stated at the series for a quick second before the ground starred to rumble and shake, causing people to fall down and lose their balance.
Once the shaking stopped everyone got right back up on their feet and continued to prepare for the Jabberwocky. When Discord was about to run to the castle stables to find a horse, he heard a soft voice calling his name.
"Discord? Discord!"
Discord turned around to see Fluttershy pushing and diving her way through the soldiers, and one she did she ran to Discord and hugged him. He hugged back and looked down at Fluttershy.
"Discord, what's going on?! Why is everyone in a frenzy?!" Fluttershy asked in a worried tone as she looked up at him.
"Plans have changed Fluttershy. Apparently our time is cut short." Discord said as he grabbed Fluttershy's hand and lead her to the stables.
"W-Wait! I don't understand! What's going on?!" Flutter asked.
"The Jabberwocky is here." Discord replied as he opened the door to the stables and started to prepare a horse by having a saddle.
"T-Th-The J-Jabberwocky?!?!?!" Fluttershy exclaimed.
Fluttershy's body began to shake with fear as she heard the loud roars of the hideous beast.
"Yes. And I need to take you away from that creature!" Discord said as he hopped onto the horse. "Hop on!!" Discord exclaimed as he offered his hand to Fluttershy.
Without hesitation, Fluttershy grabbed Discord's hand and he hauled her up onto the horse. Then the horse started to run out of the castle grounds and into the Everfree forest. As Fluttershy held on tight to Discord, she felt the heat from the fires that the Jabberwocky created and heard the screams of people being out from the fires out. Fluttershy couldn't help but think of the nightmare she used to have, how each one of them was coming true!! About how the Jabberwocky would come and burn Wonderland until it's nothing but a speck of ash.
Fluttershy felt her eyes burn from the smoke and she cried into Discord's back. As Discord was directing the horse to go into the Everfree forest he looked behind him to see Fluttershy crying and hiding onto him tightly. Discord then turned back to the road and told to go faster. The horse was then running as fast as he could through the thick branches and muddy ground. Just then Discord could see the door that lead to Fluttershy's world and he stopped the horse. When Discord turned to Fluttershy, he saw Fluttershy shaking and holding him tightly.
"It's ok Fluttershy. Soon you'll be safe, and away from this massacre." Discord said as he pulled Fluttershy away and got off of the horse.
"W-Where are we going?" Fluttershy asked.
"Where you'll be going is safer than here. But unfortunately I can't go with you." Discord said as he grabbed Fluttershy by the waist and helped Fluttershy her off of the horse.
Before Fluttershy could say anything more, she looked behind Discord to see the door where she came through, the one that lead her back home.
"Discord? W-Why are we here?" Fluttershy asked as she looked at the door and then back at Discord.
She then saw Discord with a sad face as he held his head low. Fluttershy started to get confused, until finally she realized why she was brought here.
"No...no!! Please tell that it's not true!!" Fluttershy said while tears started to form into her eyes.
"Yes. It's true. You can't stay here any more, and I'm afraid...well, this is it! This is the end!" Discord said.
"But it can't be!! If keeping me safe means that I have to leave you forever then I rather die right now!!" Fluttershy exclaimed, and her tears streaming down her face.
"I know it's hard Fluttershy, but this is the only way that you can be safe and the Jabberwocky won't find you." discord started to explain until Fluttershy cut him off.
"No!! No I won't go!! I'm not going to lose you!! Not after everything we've been through." Fluttershy yelled.
"I'm sorry but it has to be this way. There's no other solution!" Discord said as his heart began to ache.
"B-But I love you!! We were supposed to get married and live happily ever after, now my reams of being with you just went up into flames!! WHY DOES YOUR WORLD NOT WANT ME TO BE WITH YOU?!?!? WHAT DID I OR ANY PERSON FROM MY WORLD EVER DID TO WONDERLAND TO PREVENT MY LOVE FOR YOU?!?!" Flutttershy sobbed.
She then felt her legs getting shaky and she collapsed to the ground weeping her eyes out. Fluttershy cried and cried while Discord watched her in her state of denial. He knew that Fluttershy was absolutely devastated about having to leave him and with all of his heart he wanted to be with Fluttershy forever, from waking up to see her beautiful face to kissing her soft and sweet lips and being with her to no end. But sometimes life just doesn't work that way. It can really be unfair at times, sometimes it at times when your at your most joyful moment until someone or something comes in and ruins it all. In this case, it's the Jabberwocky that would come and ruin it all. As Fluttershy laid on the floor sobbing, Discord walked up to her and knelt down in front of her. He placed his finger under her chin and lifted her head up gently.
"Fluttershy listen to me,I know that it's unfair that I'm not supposed to love you. But even though the law states said that I can't love you, it can't stop the burning sensation I feel for you in my heart. I love you so much that I would do anything to make sure that's you're safe and sound. And if that means I won't ever get to see you in my life ever again, well...at least that means I know the alive and safe." Discord explained as a single year ran down his left cheek.
"B-But what if....w-what if when I get back to my world I forget about you?! What if I fall in l-love with someone else?! What if I get f-forced into another arranged marriage?! I don't know what I'll do without you!!" Fluttershy sobbed.
"You won't forget about me. After all we've been through, do really think you could forget me? When I'm not there with you, when you're alone or feel sad, just remember that I'll always be there beside you. Even though I'm not there to comfort you just know that I love you. I'll always love you even if I'm at the edge of death itself. My heart will never be touched by another woman other than you. I love you Fluttershy." Discord explained as he stopped away Fluttershy's tears with his thumbs.
Fluttershy gave a little smile to Discord and leaned toward him do she could kiss him. Until right where they were, Fluttershy and Discord heard a low but menacing laugh that rang all throughout the Everfree forest. It gave could up Fluttershy's alive and she hugged Discord tightly. Discord put one arm around Fluttershy while the other grabbed the sword.
"Oh look at the two love birds, all by themselves with no one around...except for me of course!"
It was the Jabberwocky!! It found them!! Discord wanted to take his sword and cut off the Jabberwocky's head clean off its body, but the creature was no where to be seen.
"Show yourself you coward!!" Discord exclaimed.
"Me? A coward? That's s lot coming from someone who would rather keep his lover and let the fate of millions of people crumble."
Discord could only see the Jabberwocky's two bright yellow eyes and black pupils.
"But if you want me to show myself, then I gladly will. After all I did came here to kill her!" The Jabberwocky spoke as it pointed at Fluttershy.
Fluttershy got scared and dug her face into Discord's chest. As the Jabberwocky stepped out of the shadows, Discord couldn't believe his eyes!!! The Jabberwocky...was human?!?!
"Y-You're human?!?!?!?" Discord exclaimed as he started at a man with black combed back hair. It's skin was a dark shade of navy blue and he wore a silverish suit with a black tie with sharp pointy teeth.
"No, I only turn human when I have consumed enough human lives. But as I've said before, I came here for one thing only. So if you don't mind-" The Jabberwocky said and with a flick of his wrist, Discord was pushed to a large oak tree and with his magic vines started to wrap around him, preventing Discord to move.
"Fluttershy, RUN!!!!!" Discord exclaimed.
Fluttershy then started to run deeper into the Everfree forest.
"You can run Fluttershy but you can't hide." The Jabberwocky said.
"Why are you doing this?! Why is Fluttershy the one thing you can to kill?!" Discord asked while trying to break free of the vines.
"Why am I doing this? Well since you're all about to die pretty soon, I might as well share my true intentions."
(A/N SONG TIME!!! had to tweak a few lyrics)
"In the dark of the night I was tossing and turning
And the nightmare I had was as bad as can be
It scared me out of my wits--
A corpse falling to bits!
Then I opened my eyes
And the nightmare was...me!"
Just then, all of the shadows that haunted the Everfree forest started coming out of the ground and from the trees.
"I was once the most mystical man in all of Wonderland
When the royals betrayed me they made a mistake
My curse made each of them pay
But one little girl got away!
Little Fluttershy, beware,
Jabberwocky's awake!
Shadows:
In the dark of the night evil will find her
In the dark of the night just before dawn
Aah...
Jabberwocky:
Revenge will be sweet
Jabberwocky and shadows:
When the curse is complete!
All:
In the Dark of the night
Jabberwocky:
She'll be gone!
I can feel that my powers are slowly returning!
Tie my sash and a dash of cologne for that smell!
As the pieces fall into place
I'll see her crawl into place!
Do Svidaniya, Fluttershy, your grace!
Farwell...
Shadows:
In the dark of the night terror will strike her!
Jabberwocky:
Terror's the least I can do!
Shadows:
In the dark of the night evil will brew!
Ooh!
Jabberwocky:
Now she will feel that her night mares are real!
All:
In the dark of the night!
Jabberwocky:
She'll be through!
Shadows:
In the dark of the night
Evil will find her!
Find her!
Ooh!
In the dark of the night terror comes true!
Doom her!
Jabberwocky:
My dear, here's a sign--
All:
It's the end of the line!"
Fluttershy could here the voices of the shadows and Jabberwocky become louder and louder as she ran through the forest. While the shadows are rising from within the ground and the trees.
"All:
In the dark of the night...
In the dark of the night...
In the dark of the night...
Jabberwocky:
Come my minions,
Rise for your master,
Let your evil shine!
Find her now,
Yes, fly ever faster"
Fluttershy tried to run but in every direction the shadows were already in front of her! Their dark figures and glowing eyes, getting more and more intense as they closed in on her.
All:
In the dark of the night...
In the dark of the night...
In the dark of the night...
Jabberwocky:
She'll be mine!!!"
And with that being said, all of the shadows came at Fluttershy all at once and immediately started to tie her down to the floor. Fluttershy tried to fight them off but as they kept tightening their grip on her, she could see the Jabberwocky slowly walking up to her. Fluttershy tried to fight off but then the Jabberwocky pointed a sword right at her chest. The Jabberwocky slowly began to press down on the sword, causing the sword to sink into Fluttershy's chest. Fluttershy winced in pain as tears began to blind her eyes.
"Dear Fluttershy, I must say that it has been a while since I've last seen you. I was just going to kill you quickly, but I rather see you suffer before I move on to the bigger picture.' The Jabberwocky said as he smiled maliciously.
"Y-Yo-You won't g-get away with this!!" Fluttershy tried to say as the sword was digging in deeper into her chest.
"Oh...I already have." The Jabberwocky replied as he pressed harder on the sword.
Fluttershy couldn't contain the pain she was feeling, she screamed at the top of her lungs and that scream rang all throughout the Everfree forest. While Discord managed free himself from the vines, he heard the scream coming from the deepest part of the Everfree forest and his heart dropped. Discord recognized that scream and he began to feel a hell-like anger rise within him. His eyes began to turn red and he grabbed a sword and started to run, leaving a fire trail behind him. As he ran, Discord began to see a lifeless Fluttershy lying on the ground and the Jabberwocky smiling evily at her. Discord began to run faster and right when he was close to the Jabberwocky he screamed!
"OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!!!!!" Discord screamed as he swung his sword and chopped off his head clean of its shoulders.
Right when the sword went through, the Jabberwocky's head rolled onto the floor and it disappeared into black smoke while the body fell to the floor and disappeared. With a heavy breath, Discord dropped the sword and went over to Fluttershy. He saw Fluttershy with pale skin and her breath became slower within every take.
"F-Fluttershy?!?!? No! I-It can't be!! Please, no!!!" Discord said as tears began to stream down his face as he held Fluttershy's body in his arms.
"D-Discord?" Fluttershy tried to say but she only winced in pain.
Discord smiled a little that she was still alive but soon his smile disappeared when Fluttershy realized that she was dying.
"Fluttershy...I know that you don't want me to say this, b-but I have no other choice. Now that the Jabberwocky has been defeated, magic has been restored! And with that I need to use the magic that I have...to send you back to your world." Discord explained.
"B-But why c-can't you-" Fluttershy began to say but discord placed her fingers upon her lips to shush her.
"Magic can do many things Fluttershy, but fixing things that have been caused by the Jabberwocky cannot be done. But there's enough magic to send you back home. So I ask you Fluttershy to stay strong, and never forget about me! I'll always be in your heart." Discord said as he gave her one final kiss on her lips.
Discord's hand started to glow a pink and light blue light and he placed it on Fluttershy's chest. Fluttershy's body began to disappear into a herd of small light pink butterflies. But before Fluttershy's body disappeared entirely, Fluttershy raised her head and looked at Discord.
"Goodbye Discord. I love you." Fluttershy whispered.
And with that being said, Fluttershy's body disappeared entirely into a herd of small pink butterflies and they began to fly away and as they flew toward the stars, the faded away. Once the butterflies had faded away, Discord started to punch the floor as he sobbed. With his body shaking and his tears blinding him and he looked up at the sky and remembered the times that he had with Fluttershy.
"FLUTTERSHY!!!!!!!!!!" Discord cried out, with tears streaming down his face and the fact that he can never see his true love ever again.
