I'm confused..

Celestia stood in her chambers her head still laying on the pillow that was laid softly there, her thoughts kept racing. I miss Illusion and Harmony so very much, and D-discord.. Her train of thought was swiftly wrecked by a soft knock at her door. "Celestia? You've been in there for a while, Luna and I are worried.." A familiar daughter-like voice caught the attention of Celestia, as her head raised. She could never deny her former student. Long ago she was only her teacher, but Celestia saw it more like a mother-like fashion. It always edged her how her parents where so willing to get rid of Twilight, they where happy she could tell, but most of her life was going to be spent with Celestia. So it was only right that she viewed Twilight in that way. "C-celestia?" Her head shook as the door gradually opened. Sat there was a weeping princess, as Luna stepped in she gave a quick hug to her sister and then let Twilight step toward Celestia. "Please, you've been in here for moons! I don't mean to pressure you, but Luna rejected telling me what was the matter, I know Discord and your two other kids have relation to this, but you can tell me.. I am your friend.." The purple alicorn looked up at her mother-figure as Celestia softly sighed as her ear's perked and smiled slightly.

Celestia bit her lip. It's been a while since shes even spoken about this day. "I can always count on you Twilight... I suppose it's time I told you.." A sigh escaped before she sat in silence, Twilight eagerly leaned toward Celestia for once not taking notes. Finally the cold ice was broke by the sigh of Celestia. "You see.. Many years ago, Discord and I where married as you know, but I was to caught up signing papers and focusing on everything BUT my family... So my Discord snapped and he yelled at me, angry like I've never seen him before. He wanted to divorce..." Tears slightly rolled down Celestia's cheek. "We haven't fought like that since-" Luna eyed Celestia.

"Sister, you know not to speak of your youth years with Discord, it's a tragic story, only Tia, Dissy, and I speak of those days.." Luna chuckled as she thought of the old childhood nicknames Discord gave us. "Cay-cay, Lu-lu, mooney.. The only way we could pay him back was by calling him Dis or Dissy.." She smiled and Celestia rolled her eye's but she almost grinned a little. Twilight glanced at them both. She gave a 'how long' look and Luna raised a brow as she looked down upon Twilight. "Over 2000 years Mrs. Sparkle.. We share quite the history, after all Celestia was one of the reasons he went mad." Luna slightly smiled then caught on to what she had just said. Celestia looked up and teared up.

"I-i don't understand.." Twilight softly replied as she raised her audit's in confusion. "Princesses, we have to find Discord.." Twilight's wing's raised as she looked down at Celestia. "You've been my teacher for many years Celestia, but as the princess of Friendship and the mare who knows the princess of love, I say that we find him and rejoin the friendship and love that was lost many years ago. It is my duty as princess to take my role seriously, and spread friendship even to those higher than me." Twilight declared as she stomped her hoof. Celestia smiled once again, this is what she molded her bookworm student into.. "I'll tell Fluttershy to invite him to her cottage, I believe she or her son Buttermilk wouldn't mind a visit, after all, how many years has it been?" Twilight chuckled at the end before stepping more near Luna.

"Very well Sparkle, well lets get ready, it's not everyday we get to see long lost family after all." Her wing's unleashed and sore off to her bed chambers and Celestia nodded and shut the door, hoping for Twilight's help.

Celestia pulled out a certain dress that had always caught her eye. "I like this one, but are you sure this is needed? I'm not going to the gala.." Celestia softly asked before Twilight nodded and Celestia went off to try the dress on. The white mare stepped out, Twilight shook her head swiftly and there Celestia went trying on new outfits. Finally she stepped out with a beautiful gown. Twilight's mouth opened wide. "Well?" Twilight rushed over and put up Celestia's sparkling mane. "I haven't wore my mane up in years.." Still there Twilight sat frozen.

"U-umm, Princess.. Tell me why don't you ever wear your mane up? Or at least design it? It looks beautiful, so does the dress!" Twilight reassured her before pushing her to go see Luna. "I'll be right back gotta throw on a gown of my own!" She hurried out the door and then Luna came walking in with her gown on. There Luna's eye's widened a bit.

"Since when do you look so different sister? I suppose I haven't seen you wore something like this in moons, but I do love your hair tied up though." She snickered before Celestia softly smiled in reply

- Twilight's home

"C'mon there got to be something! I really want to set a good impression!" Her hooves tapped the ground over and over until one caught her eye. She threw it on to where it would actually look nice, she hasn't looked so formal and uptight, but it was good enough.
A knock on Fluttershy's cottage caught Fluttershy's attention. There he stood the noble lord of chaos himself, alongside him his two children stood. "Fluttershy! My dearest friend, or has Pax replaced me?" He laughed before Fluttershy could reply. "Oh right! Hes nothing like me, uptight just like his mother! He could never replace me!" Fluttershy lifted herself towards Discord putting a frown on.
"Pax has been nothing but a gentlecolt towards me! If I where you I'd be proud of my flesh and blood, he is a close friend of mine, and he can act like you! Have you heard his laugh? Have you seen his sad face? He does remind me of a Discord, Celestia, and Twilight combined.. I suggest not complaining about him anymore, and he hasn't replaced you! You're a true friend of mine, but Pax also is!' Fluttershy actually spoke her mind. Discord scratched his head.

"Are you the real Fluttershy? The real one would never talk back to me..." His eye's turned red as a certain knock at the door caught his attention.

"D-discord?! Fluttershy? It's Twilight!"
