I walked into the throne room, just me. I saw Discord and Fluttershy next to him. She was gray though and had an evil smirk on her face. "So our little hero has come to save the day?" she says sarcastically. "Ha ha ha, very funny Fluttershy." I reply. "You sure you don't want to give up now?" Discord asks. "Why would I do that?" I inquire, confused. Discord knows I wont give up that easily, so why ask? He paces around me , "You don't know a single spell, your outnumbered 2 to 1, and your just a child."  I make a ice blast come out of my horn, it knocks Discord to the back of the of the throne room and freezes his hand.

Suddenly, I'm trapped in sticky cotton candy. "Really Discord, that's the best you can do?" I point out with an eye roll.  "So you want a really fight? As you wish, princess." he challenges with mock politeness. A blade comes out of nowhere and stabs me in the shoulder. I use a fire spell do make it burn into ash. I'm not sure where the spells come from though, the just come when I need them. A jolt of pain enters me shoulders, I look and see that my shoulder is gushing fresh, red blood. I collapse in pain, screaming.

Ash runs in, regardless of the facts that he's abandoning the plan. He offers me his hoof to lift me up. "Are you okay?" Ash asks, his eyes full of worry. "Don't worry I'm perfectly..." I'm cut of my another jolt of pain, followed by a shriek of agony.  "What did you do to her!" Ash demands. "London wanted a fight, I only gave her what she wanted." Discord answered as if he was a little angel. Ash charges towards Discord a kicks him, punches him, and does some other cool fighting moves. "Go Ash!" I cheer happily.

My grin fades away when I hear a voice , "Better watch what you say love bird." I turn around to see the corrupted Fluttershy,  a long sliver blade laying just in front of her hooves. "I'm willing to take a life for a life." she says cruelly.  "What do you mean?" I inquire quietly. "Discord, me, and the drone army will never bother or touch Ash ever gain on one condition." Fluttershy coos. "You die." she whispers into my ear.

"You promise." I whisper. "I promise my life." Fluttershy answers. Life, the word has  been tossed around very causally in this conversation, even though my life is on the line. "I'll do it." I confirm.
