I decided to write this fan fiction after watching the fan animation Snowdrop (if you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend you do). Anyways, here's the first chapter. Sorry it might be a bit off; I wrote it in one night.
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic or Snowdrop. Those belong to Hasbro and Silly Filly Studios.
The first winter snow of the season was about to arrive. Discord planned on causing his usual seasonal mischief, but not before checking his food supply.
"Alright, I've got bread pudding, egg nog, those chocolate log thingies, ham; looks like I'm pretty much stocked up for the winter."
After checking his list, he ate his paper and walked out to the entrance of his cave. Coming out, however, he took notice that something was… different this time of season.
From the sky, the snow was falling, but the individual flakes looked different than what they usually do each winter. Discord caught one of the specks of snow and examined it. To him, it looked like a geometric doily with branches coming out from each of its six points.
Discord started to ponder why the snow was shaped this way. He couldn't have done something like this and even if he did, it would be to make winter more miserable for everypony. He didn't know what to make of this phenomena; he had to figure out why the falling snow was shaped in such a way.
Discord decided to fly up into the sky, transforming himself into a bird, to see what was going on. Up there, he saw Pegasus ponies filling the clouds with the snow doilies.
'What purpose would these ponies have in doing this?' Discord thought to himself.
It was then he looked over and saw Princess Celestia and Princess Luna along with a small Pegasus filly inspecting the work of the other pegasi. This made Discord smirk a little and he decided there that he should pay the princesses a visit.
"Well, congratulations, Princesses, you've finally found a way to make winter a little more interesting for once."
"Discord!" Celestia shouted, unenthused with hearing his voice.
"Oh relax, Celestia, I'm not even causing any trouble… for now." Said Discord transforming into his true self. "I'm just curious as to how you came up with the idea to make it snow doilies."
"One of the Pegasus foals wanted us to make special snow stars so ponies can grant wishes for the winter, so they can be happy for the season for once."
Discord looked over at the small blue filly that stood near the princesses. There was something unusual about the little filly, but he couldn't quite put his claw on it.
"And I take it THIS is the foal who came up with the idea." Said Discord circling the filly, "How ADORABLE."
The filly seemed both nervous and confused at what was going on.
"Thou leave Snowdrop out of thy mischief, Discord!" shouted Princess Luna, defending the little filly.
"I BARELY even touched her." Said Discord.
"What's going on?" asked the little Pegasus in confusion.
"Don't worry, Snowdrop," said Celestia wrapping her wing around the filly, "you shouldn't have to worry about that MONSTER."
"Name calling; oh how mature of you, your highness." Said Discord in sarcasm.
"Leave this place. NOW!"
"Fine. One alteration though."
Discord snapped his fingers, turning the snow yellow.
"DISCORD!" shouted Celestia in disapproval.
"Relax. Its lemon." Said Discord. "Well, I'm off. See you next time, Princesses."
Discord finally disappeared. Celestia sighed in annoyance as she used her Alicorn powers to turn the snow back to its pristine white.
"Princess Celestia, who was that?" asked Snowdrop, the little blue Pegasus filly.
"That was Discord. He sets out to ruin all things good with his powers of chaos."
"Why?"
"Simply out of his own amusement." Said Celestia. "He has no regards for others and treats them like his playthings. He's nothing but a nuisance."
"…I don't think you should've called him a monster, your highness."
Celestia was shocked by this statement. Snowdrop may have been blind, but clearly she must see how evil the draconequus was.
"Snowdrop," said Celestia placing her wing around the filly, "you have a kind heart, but you don't know the kind of beast he is. I'm just glad that he hasn't tried to harm you this time; he can be very dangerous."
Snowdrop couldn't understand why such a creature would be considered dangerous. His powers might've been annoying from what she had witnessed, but surely they couldn't have been THAT bad. The more she thought about it, the more this "Discord" character intrigued her and she wanted to find out more.
Anyways, please R&R.
