Chapter 8
I’m a...dad?

“Well I think that is a good idea how about all of you?” The unicorn asked the crowd. They all looked at each other and nodded. “Alright then! Let me just get a scroll and write the princess a note.”

He grabbed a parchment from the desk that held the computer. He scribbled on the parchment and sent it off with a simple spell. “Now we wait and watch the show begin!”

(\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/)

Celestia had her game interrupted by a scroll suddenly falling and landing on her muzzle. She snorted slightly and picked up the scroll and unrolled it. A malicious smile spread across her face. She let out a small giggle and started up a small spell. A few moments later she appeared in the garden with a frozen Discord still cowering in fear from his already decided fate.

“Hello old friend.” She said placing a hoof on the stone statue of the mix and matched creature. “It’s time for you to join our world again, but in a different way.”

With another giggle she touched the tip of her horn to the middle of the statue and a small flow of golden energy went into the statue. She began to fidget in her golden hoof caps and slowly began to pull back. As she did, a small ball of fur, scales, and leather was levitating in front of her horn. She let out a gasp and looked at the small ball of fur that was currently hovering in front of her with a golden glow covering it.

Easy spell....LOTS of energy.’ She thought as she placed the ball of fur on her back and laid down for a moment. “Just gotta rest for a moment....And then put him in the cell with Slayer.” She said with a small huff.

After about 10 minutes she heard a small yawn come up from behind her and she slightly flinched. She pulled the small Discord off her back and began to spell. After about 1 minute and a small POP, Discord was gone.

“And let the games begin.” She said with a giddy smile before teleporting back to her throne.

(\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/)

I was lying on my cell’s cot and somewhat dozing off. I had really no reason to stay awake because the guards had gone off to go exchange duties.

“Hope the new guards are just as friendly as the last.” I said to no one. I let my eyelids finally fall and let the wonder known as sleep take hold of me. I was on the verge of getting some good sleep until something landed on my chest. It was plump, soft, and really warm. ‘Okay what did they throw on me?’ I thought. ‘Been in here not even one day and they are already pranking me.

I groggily opened my eyes and I am met with a sight that, Not only melted my heart, but made it stop completely. I saw....laying on my chest, curled up in a ball....A baby...Discord.

His little chest rose and fell with simple ease. I didn’t know what to do. All of my feelings were colliding together. Wondering how? This is what was going on in my head....

Ohmehgerd so cute!

I should get this thing off me!!

How can something so evil be so adorable?

Why is he a baby and why is he on my chest....

How on celestia’s mighty sun am I to deal with him when he wakes up!?

He let out a small adorable yawn and raised his head sleepily while blinking. ‘Why does fate hate me?

Then he looked around with half lidded eyes trying to pick up anything that might be able to be seen. His eyes fell on me and he went completely still, as did I. We stared at each other for a few moments until he lifted his lion paw. I was practically sweating bullets now as he raised his little paw. Then he ever so slowly leaned over with his paw still out. I closed my eyes and tensed up with the fear of impending doom or some awful confusing punishment. His paw touched my nose and I prepared for the worst. After a few moments I opened my eyes to see discord with his head tilted.

He looked...confused? ‘Okay now I know someone is fucking with me.’ I thought. I blinked and he just kept his paw on my nose. I gently lifted one hand up and gently attempted to get his paw off my nose. As I touched his paw he flinched, but kept his paw there nonetheless. I gently wrapped my fingers around his little arm and took the paw of my nose.

I placed it back next to him and then we went back to our staring contest. I lifted my hand and replicated his action. I gently put my finger on his nose and then said...

“Boop.” Needless to say he actually giggled. I smiled and chuckle as well. I gently tapped his nose again and said. “Boop!”

He broke out into a small fit of giggles. ‘He really is a child?...Filly?...foal?...Cub? … Uh lizard?’ I thought. He had stopped gigging and his eyes were wide open now.

“Hey there little guy!” I said with a high pitched voice.(You know the ones you use with babies.) I took a small chance and put my hands around his little, snake-like body. He fidgeted, but let me do it nonetheless. Then I picked him up and sat up properly. I rolled my neck, cracking it, for a moment before I sat him down on my lap.

I stretched my arms and looked down at the small creature. He was about the size of a large puppy, acted like one too. I mean literally he was sniffing around the place and pawing at my jeans. ‘Probably hungry.’ I thought.

“But how to get out of here...” I said out loud. I looked around and my cell was pretty much escape proof. I mean there was no actual lock for the cell door, There was no window, and my last escape was because had lady luck looking down on me.

“Augh this suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-”

(\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/)

Celestia was sitting on her throne playing her game and not really paying attention to anything else. She was snapped out of her trance by a frantic knocking from her throne room’s doors. She quickly hid her gaming device and watched as her faithful student bolted through the doors and stopped in front of her.

“Princess!! *Pant pant* I would..*Pant pant.*” Twilight began. Celestia giggled slightly and held up a hoof.

“Twilight please calm yourself! Now please take a few breaths and tell me what is going on.” She said calmly.

“Alright...” Twilight said. She took a few breaths and sighed. “Alright. Princess. I would like to request that me and my friends interrogate the creature you have in the dungeon.”

“May I ask why?” Celestia said to her student.

“Princess that creature knows more than he lets on! He adress all of my friends by their full name and told me about my brothers relationship with Cadance!! He knows A LOT more that we think!” She said with a determined nod.

“Well...” Celestia began. She rubbed a hoof against her chin in thought. ‘This would be fun to watch.’ “I guess I can allow it. I shall send for the creature. You call for you friends to assemble and meet me back here in the throneroom.

She gave a obedient nod and runs off. ‘Why doesn’t she just teleport?’ Celestia thought as she watched her student run. Then she clapped her hooves together and a few guards came in.

“Yes your majesty?” The soldier said.

“First is my nephew okay?” Celestia asked. The guard nodded.

“He does have a few broken bones, but nothing too serious. His muzzle was sealed shut due to landing on it wrong.” The guard said.

“Well that is too bad.” ‘YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES’ “Anyway, I need you to get that creature and bring him back here.”

“Yes, right away your majesty.” the guard said.

(\~~~~~~~~~~~~/)

“-uuuuuucks.”

I was sitting on my cot playing around with the baby discord thinking for a plan.

“Well I can’t pick the lock...Don’t even know how to either. Don’t have anything to saw through it. Probably enchanted anyway. Can’t dig out because of the stone floor. Maybe I can have discord let me out of here on some sort of freak accident.” I said holding the small mix-matched creature in the air as if he was flying. He giggled with unbridled joy and his little wings even flapped a little.

“How can something so evil be so damned adorable?” I said looking at the little guy. Then my blood ran cold when I heard hooves falling against the floor. “That ain’t good...”

I looked around and began to freak out. All I had was my jacket, flannel and my hat. “Oh god oh god oh god what do I do!?” I said beginning to freak out.

That was when Discord began to work his, literal, magic. He began to gag and then coughed violently. I picked him up and gently began to pat him on the back. He finally coughed up a whole bunch of cards. I am not kidding they were playing cards.

“Feel better?” I asked him. He turned his head and nodded. Then he did something I never thought I would see. He reached up. I mean it, He reached up and looked at me with those big, miss sized eyes of his. Feeling absolutely nothing else other than D’AAAAWWs trying to escape, I picked him up and hugged the little bugger close.

“My god what has happened to me?” I said as I realized what I was doing. I heard the hooves getting closer and began to panic. I took off my jacket and my flannel, so I was in my simple white T-shirt. I put discord in flannel and wrapped him up in it. It looked like a pillow honestly, but I could still see a very distinct creature shape made out. I picked him up and placed him in the jacket and wrapped him up. Now at least he looked like nothing more than a bundle. Then I began to pick up all the cards that he spew all over the cell’s floor.

They were simple playing cards. Nothing very chaotic other than the fact that all of the suits were wrong. Instead of Diamonds, Spades, Hearts, and Clubs there were Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind. ‘Meh he could have done better.’ I thought. After I got all of the cards put back into a deck, I slipped them into my pocket.

The guards arrived just as I turned around to pick up discord. “You. Creature! You are being taken to the princess. Grab your things and let’s get going.” The guard said.

I nodded and picked up my jacket. Thankfully Discord was being fairly quiet and was not flailing about. The guard opened the door and I walked out holding the bundle in my arms. The guards didn’t really care about the fact that my coat and flannel were balled up and oddly shaped.

(\~~~~~~~~~~~~~/)

Celestia watched as he student and her friends walked into the Throne room. Twilight was discussing the situation with her friends as they walked.

“...So that is why we need to get the creature to tell us everything it knows.” She said with determination in her voice.

“Well that’s all fine and dandy Twi, but that doesn’t explain why we need to interrogate ‘em” Applejack said with confusion evident in her voice.

“Ugh...I just told you Applejack! He knew more than he let on about us!! That is why he wouldn’t talk when we caught him the first time.” She said with a matter ‘o fact tone.

“I dunno Twi...Still sounds like a load of hooey.” Applejack said thinking about what her friend said.

“Well it doesn’t matter. I will show you all that he knows more than he lets on!” Twilight said.

Then the doors burst open with several guards and a human standing behind them. They walked in and pushed the human to the ground. “He is the creature your majesty. Should we put him in cuffs?” The guard asked.

“Yes. We don’t want him kicking anypony else right?” Celestia said scowling at the human.

“Yeah yeah...bracelets please.” The human said placing the bundle his arms down and holding out his arms. The guards placed the cuffs onto his wrists and then placed a set on his ankles as well. “Really? I am gonna run with two unicorns and a alicorn watching me like a hawk? Look I am not that desperate to escape to commit suicide.”

“Wait princess what do you mean ‘kicking anypony else’?” Twilight asked her mentor.

“Well...Earlier this creature was here and we were getting questioning him and my nephew Blueblood thought he would ‘help’.” Celestia said using a hoof to rub her head in an attempt to clear a oncoming headache. “Then this thing became agitated and well....Kicked him clear out of the throne room. I mean like out of the room.”

All the ponies looked from the princess to the creature that was currently looking at the lump of clothing in his arms. Then they looked at each other until Rarity decided to speak up.

“So wait princess you’re saying that that..” Rarity started as she pointed to the human. “...Kicked Blueblood out of that door? Just out of impulse?”

“I also beat the shit out of him while I was running through the halls. Mostly because his voice and personality pissed me off. And he wanted to kill me.” The human said holding up a cuffed arm. “But yes.... Completely out of impulse.”

“So yes. He did kick a pony.” Celestia said with another glare to the human.

(\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/)

I was too busy worrying about the baby chaos lord in my arms. He had been fairly quiet and I was starting to get a little freaked out. I opened up the jacket a bit and saw him with his eyes closed. ‘Oh thank god...He is just sleeping.’ I thought with a silent sigh.

I looked around and saw Celestia glaring at me. “Did I miss something?” I asked.

“No, but you are going to do exactly what my student asks.” Celestia said. Twilight stepped forward and walked up to me. I blinked and smiled.

“Okay then. What is it you want Ms. student?” I asked her. She looked at me quizzically.

“You know exactly what I want!” She said with a triumphant smile. I looked at her confused.

“I actually don’t. You ran from my cell earlier and didn’t say another word. Then I escaped, but that is beside the point.” I said shrugging my shoulders.

Rainbow dash chuckled a bit, but stopped when Twilight glared at her. Then she turned back to me and used a hoof to grab my shirt and pull me to her face.

“You are stalling. Now please. Tell us how you know so much about us!!” Twilight said getting frustrated.

“Who? You and your friends over there?” I asked. She nodded and let me go. “Well it is a simple answer...” Twilight smiled in triumph again. “But I am not going to tell you.”

Then her smile dropped and she began to turn red with frustration. Applejack walked over to her and placed a hoof on her shoulder before saying.

“Now calm down Twi. He is just messing with you.” Twilight calmed down a bit before looking at me. “You of all ponies should have known that this wasn’t going to be easy.”

“Actually I will tell you everything for one simple request.” I said with a smile. Twilight got right into my face with a smile that almost put pinkie’s smile to shame.

“What!? What is the request!!” She demanded. I chuckled at the sight of the giddy pony and sighed.

“Let me go.” I said calmly. Her smile stopped and get backed up. “It’s a simple request. Let me go after I tell you what you want to know and you won’t have to worry about me.”

She turned to the princess and Celestia just frowned. “I am sorry, but that can’t be permitted.” Celestia said.

Twilight’s demeanor became saddened when she heard this. I sighed and hung my head.

“Yeah knew that wasn’t going to work. Now I know how King Sombra felt.” I said while rolling my neck. After a few cracks were heard I saw Pinkie Pie walk up to me.

“How did you know about that you silly willy tall human?” Pinkie said. I just laughed and shook my head.

“Oh Pinkie Pie. Still breaking the laws of physics I see.” I said chuckling. Pinkie Pie stared at me before bursting into laughter. Everyone just stared before I started to calm down. “Speaking of physics...Does anyone have anything to eat? Kinda hungry.”

Pinkie pulled out a cupcake and placed it in my hand. I smiled and thanked her before taking a bite of the cupcake. I am not gonna lie it was pretty damn good. It’s not like how everyone makes them out to be, over loaded with sugar and smothering them in frosting. It was perfect. Not too sweet and really moist.

“That was wonderful. Thanks Pinkie.” I said with a smile. She smiled and hopped back to her friends. Everyone was just staring at the two of us.

“So you weren’t just making that stuff up.” Applejack said looking at me. Then, Rainbow being Rainbow, she flew forward and tackled me, thankfully missing discord.

“Okay spill it! How do you know about us!! ARE YOU A SPY!!?” She said getting into my face.

“Look Rainbow Dash if you wanted a hug all you have to do is ask.” I said grinning. She blushed and hit me with her hoof.

“S-shut up!! Just tell us!!” She said trying to pin me beneath her.

“I think not. I would prefer not to give up my sources names.” I said smiling. Twilight levitated Rainbow Dash off me and back into the group before using her magic to help me up.

“I am sorry for my friend, but we are going to find out.” Twilight said.

“Alright fine. Tell you what. Ask me a question and I will answer it, but be warned I will not answer some of the questions you’re going to ask. So shoot.” I said sitting back down. Twilight skipped back over to me and sat down pulling out a notepad and quill as well as a inkpot.

“Alright. What’s your name?” She asked.

“Slayer. Slayer Broman. Pleasure to meet you Miss sparkle.” I said holding out my hand. She looked at me before placing her hoof into my hand.

“What are you?”

“I am a human!” I said with a smile. “I thought you all heard that from Pinkie Pie over there.”

“Okay. Now for a big question. How do you know are names?” She said.

“That I can’t tell you, but I will say I don’t know everything about you.” I said while wiping smile of my face.

“Alright. Then how much do you know about us?” She asked with an inquisitive stare.

“Um that is a big question. I mostly know stuff about you six.” I said gesturing to the mane 6. “But I know a few things about others as well.”

“That didn’t answer my question.” She said. I sigh and begin to tell her all that I knew. Which is the average amount that any brony would know. The ponies are all gawking except the princess.

“I also know that Celestia has a mild cake addiction.” I said pointing to the princess. Everyone looks to her and she blushes greatly. “Which is also the reason when ever she is alone she will question if she has a big flank or not.”

Pinkie slowly starts to giggled, but suppresses it. Celestia looks as if she is going to kill me now, but it was so worth it. I did something any brony would love to do. I met the mane 6, survived a changeling feeding off me, and I got a gun. Pretty nice run if I do say so.

I felt something warm cover my body from my neck down. I looked down to see a golden glow. Next thing I knew I was brought right up to Celestia’s face. Man did she look PISSED.

“How do you know that!?” She whispered to me. I just grinned and shook my head.

“I didn’t. But I do now.” I said. She pulled back and smirked while giving me either a ‘loving’ stare or a ‘I am going to hurt you in the future' stare. Most likely the latter.

“Touche. Touche.” She said as she lowered me back to the ground. Then she looked to the small bundle in my arms and raised an eyebrow. “May I ask what is in that bundle of fabric?”

“Um. Just my flannel over-shirt and coat.” I said shrugging. Celestia smirks and chuckles.

“Then why is it giving off a massive magical energy signature?” She said and I go pale.

“Uuuuuuh...” I dumbly stated.

“May we look inside the jacket?” She said. I began to fidget and then looked around.

“Do I have a choice?” I asked with a teeny bit of hope.

“Of course not.” Celestia said. I sighed and hesitantly held out the small bundle.

If that little bugger is smart he will either run or teleport or something!!’ I thought.

Celestia’s magic glow covered the bundle of clothes and brought it to her face. She grinned for some reason as she slowly unrolled the bundle. I could feel the tension in the air and I am pretty sure that I have a good strip of white going through my hair under my hat right now.

I swear she is doing it that slow to kill me with the anxiety.’ I thought as she levitated my coat over to me. I grabbed it out of the air and hung it over my right arm. Finally she began to unwrap the flannel. I was considering closing my eyes and just waiting to get turned to stone, but it was like watching a ghost movie. I just couldn’t stop watching or else I might miss something important.

She finished unwrapping the cloth that was my flanner and gasped. “There is nothing here!” Celestia said levitating the flannel long sleeve around like it was a odd artifact. I let out a silent sigh and smiled.

“Well yeah. I told you it was just my flannel and coat...” I said as Celestia glared at me. “What?”

She just points at my shoulder and smirks. “What are you pointing to-” I look to see none other than Discord. Sitting on my shoulder rubbing against my neck while purring. I blinked and looked at the dumbfounded expressions of everyone. “May I just say that is a total D’aw moment?”

Everyone blinked before I picked Discord off my shoulder and brought him into my arms. He let out a small yawn and snuggled against my chest. I smiled before remembering what was going on. My smile dropped as I looked around the room. Everyone was staring at me with complete astonishment. Even Celestia’s jaw had dropped.

“Um....Who wants to meet my adopted son Discord?” I said with a nervous smile. ‘Why did I say that?

I got a collective. “WHAT!?” from everyone in the room.

(\~~~~~~~~~~~~~/)

Everyone was staring at the screen with dumbfounded expressions. The dark Cyan Unicorn walked up and looked upon the crowd before saying. “Well that backfired.”
