Just to give you the heads-up, the Lead Arrow was something I got from Greek Mythology as well. I might've made some of the stuff on the Arrows up just to make my story good. Anyway, enjoy! This is my favorite chapter yet.

Ch.6: "Lover's" Chase

Back at Castle Celestia, Spike was looking out the window of Princess Celestia's room for Twilight and the others to get back. With him are Princess Luna, with fear and worry in her eyes, and Princess Celestia pacing a little.

"Thou thinketh they will get back soon?" asked Luna. Celestia then gave her a reassuring smile, not wanting her to worry.

"Do not fear, little sister," she said to her. "I am certain that they will be back as soon as they can."

However, the older princess couldn't help but fear that something is wrong as well. Something feels to be at amiss. She couldn't help but get the feeling that something bad is going to happen while the Mane Six are away.

Oh, Discord, the beautiful Alicorn thought to herself sadly. Of all times to fall back in love with me, why do you have to do so now?

"Thinking about me, Celestia?" asked a voice she knows far too well. "I knew you have it bad for me." She, Luna, and Spike turned sharply to see Discord, Kaa, and Hiss appear inside the room in a flash of light. Quickly, Celestia stood in front of Luna, and Spike stood in front of Celestia, despite his small size.

"Y-You stay away from her!" he threatened. Kaa simply smiled at the little dragon trying to be brave and to protect the princesses.

"Well, aren't you a ssspunky little thing," he purred softly as he moved his head towards him. "It'sss really quite adorable…"

"Hey, I may be a baby dragon," Spike shot back, "but I'm…not too…young to…fight…" The little dragon began getting a little woozy as swirling colors began emitting from Kaa's eyes. Celestia gasped as swirling colors began emitting from the little dragon's eyes as well as he stared into them.

"Spike, don't look into his eyes!" she cried, despite she was too late. Spike couldn't hear her; he was too fascinated by the pretty colors.

"Aww, poor baby dwagon getting cranky?" Kaa cooed as Spike started to get wobbly. "Maybe a little nap should do the trick." As if on cue, the little dragon fell into his wing. The python smiled as his little victim began sucking his thumb like a darling baby.

"And I thought he wasss cute before," he chuckled before gently settling him on a silky pillow. Celestia quickly turned to her sister.

"Luna, we must—" She stopped in midsentence when she saw that Hiss was using the same spell as Kaa did to hypnotize the blue Alicorn.

"Celes…tia…" she whispered before fainting into his golden wings.

"Luna!" her older sister cried, rushing over to help her, only to have Discord appear in front of her and grab her quickly as she crashed into her chest.

"I knew you missed me, Celestia," he purred, planting kisses on her cheek.

"I thought nothing of the sort!" she protested, struggling to get out of his grip. "Please, stop this, Discord!"

"Your blushing says you like it," he teased, nuzzling his nose into her neck. Celestia felt her cheeks flare up more. How embarrassing. Quickly, she slipped out of his grip and flew out of the room. Discord simply smiled slyly.

"So you wanna play, do you?" he chuckled. "How cute. Well, then, ready or not, here comes Discord." He then flew off after her.

"I am mossst certainly glad thessse two are asssleep," Kaa said, covering Spike with a blanket.

"I agree," Hiss said, tucking Luna in. "Knowing them, they would probably be…uh, what isss that ssslang again?"

"Grosssed out?" asked his green companion. The gentlemanly snake snapped his finger/feathers.

"That's it!"

Meanwhile, Celestia was busy trying to get away from Discord before he does something drastic when he catches her. But with his type of power, he could be at every turn. She has no idea how right she was.

Turning to the left at the end of the hall, she screeched to a stop when she saw the Draconequus there, lifting a dumbbell up and down with his lion arm.

"Hey, Tia," he purred, giving her a flirty look. "I was just working on my biceps." He then flexed his arm to show off the large muscle. "Care to feel how hard it is?" Celestia quickly ran for the opposite direction, her face blushing like crazy.

This can't be happening, she thought to herself. This can't be happening. This can't be happening. When she reached the foyer, she saw Discord leaning against the door, arms crossing his chest, his ox leg crossing his dragon leg, and a seductive look in his eyes. Before Celestia could make another break for it, Discord grabbed her with his tail.

"Oh, Celestia, why fight it?" he asked, bring her closer to him. "You know you can't ignore what we had all those years ago."

"Discord, please!" she cried. "STOP IT!" She then blasted pastel-colored energy from her horn right at Discord, forcing him to let her go so that he can dodge it. Quickly, Celestia flew out of an open window…she had to get to safety.

She then landed in the courtyard, and three pink butterflies flew towards her.

At least something peaceful is approaching me, the white Alicorn thought to herself with a sigh…before she saw that each of the butterflies has a an antler, a goat horn, bushy eyebrows, a goatee, and a snaggletooth.

"A mare like you can truly make my heart a-flutter," they said in unison with Discord's voice. With a cry, Celestia ran into the labyrinth, making twists and turns until she reached an area in the maze with fruit trees and a pond. Thirst getting the best of her, she went over to the pond and drank its clear spring water…just as a pile of Red Delicious apples, a pile of Bright Macintosh apples, and a pile of Granny Smith apples rolled over to her and rose to form three apple-pile creatures looking at her with crimson eyes.

"You are the only apple of my eye," they said in unison with Discord's voice, just like the butterflies. Choking on the water, Celestia quickly ran out of the area and made more twists and turns. As she ran, three diamonds and three green balloons flew around her, each bearing an image of the Draconequus.

"My jewel of jewels…" the diamonds said to her.

"I feel myself floating on air when you are near me," the balloons finished.

"Stop this, Discord!" she demanded, tears of frustration streaming down her face. She then found herself in another area and no signs of the balloons and diamonds. She panted with exhaustion, her heart about to burst out of her chest. What she wouldn't give for a soft pillow to rest on…then she spotted something white and soft like a cloud in front of her through her tears of frustration. Exhaustion consuming her, she flopped onto the cushiony item and sighed happily…before a pair of arms and a tail wrapped around her. She shot her eyes wide open and saw that she is on a cloud…and Discord's on it as well, holding her with her arms and tail.

"Romantic, isn't it?" he purred into her ear. "You and me, cuddling on cloud nine…" Celestia couldn't take any more of this.

"Discord, just stop already," she threatened, storing energy into her horn…only to have it and her wings vanish in flashes of light.

"Sorry, baby," he purred to her as he held her closer, "but I don't want to take any chances. Do you want to exhaust yourself more than you already have?"

Now that she thought about it, Celestia is now extremely tired from using so much of her powers and running away from him. But she can't just stay here. She then struggled to get out of his grasp, but he held her firmly but gently as he kissed her neck. She shivered at the touch, sighing in unwanted pleasure.

"Discord…" she moaned, "not like this…I beg you…" Even she couldn't believe she's begging him. It could be his touch that's messing around with her head. With a soft smile, he lifted up his head to her and turned her head to face him with one claw.

"Shh…" he said to her softly. "Don't worry, Celestia…I'm not going anywhere for a long…long time." As he said this, swirling colors began emitting from his eyes, hypnotizing her. It was too late when she saw this; Celestia is now under his spell.

"Just rest in my arms…" he purred seductively. "Let me hold you…" Celestia soon started to get drowsy.

"Dis…cord…" she said softly before fainting into his chest. The chaotic entity simply ran his lion fingers through her mane with a smile.

"I can see why you're an entity of peace and harmony," he said to her. "You're just so relaxed and adorable when you're asleep…especially in my arms." He then closed his eyes and concentrated, emitting a telepathy spell through his horns.

"Kaa! Hiss! I have her. Let's head back to the ruins so that I can get started on that arrow."

"Got it, Massster," the two snakes replied in unison. Discord then opened his eyes to look down at Celestia once again. Smiling with a sigh, the mishmash entity gently kissed her on the forehead, and she just sighed in her sleep as she snuggled into his cinnamon brown fur. Chuckling to himself, he gathered her up into his arms and stood up on the cloud, holding her bridal style.

"Now this is something I can get used to," he said to himself. He then took off into the skies with his prize in his arms.
