Widow's Story
As she was out enjoying her morning stroll she was stopped by a stallion and a changeling, they both looked puzzled and confused. The stallion looked to his friend then back to the strange pony before them “your a spider and a pony?” he asked. “But how is that so? We've never seen anything like you here before” said the changeling. She smiled to them both saying “let's go to Sugarcube Corner and I'll tell you both what you want to know.” The three of them when headed to Sugarcube Corner where they found themselves a table to sit down and talk. She looked at the two and said “before we start I'd like to know whom I'm speaking with.” The stallion smiled saying “my name is Stargazer”, the changeling then said with a soft sweet tone “my name is Rose.” Nodding to them both she then said “I'll tell you just what you'd asked me. Yes I am a spider pony.” Before they could even ask what she knew they would she then said “I'd like to tell you both my story if you'd both like.” The two friends nodded saying “yes please it would tell us just what we'd need to know about you.” After they all ordered themselves something she than began her story:
My name is Widow Rogue and yes I'm a spider pony, Yes I know this is very odd to see a spider as well as a pony. I'm sure all kinds of ideas are just running through your heads like “did her father breed a spider?” or “did her mother breed a spider?” I assure you that's not the case. Let's start way back before I was born. My mother Araneo was born within the Everfree forest her mother always spoke of our ancestors saying something about spider ponies was in our bloodline. My mother didn't fully believe her mother until one day she went to visit with Zecora and she seen for herself a spider pony. At first my mother was scared having never seeing one before, Zecora assured my mother that the mare wouldn't harm her. The strange pony smiled at Araneo saying to her “you look so much like your mother young one.”  My mother was confused by this but before she could ask the strange pony left. Zecora of course just distracted Araneo from the srtange pony. My mother learned many things from Zecora over the years, when my mother was older she questioned Zecora of the strange pony she'd seen when she was a young filly. Zecora just spoke her riddles like always leaving my mother to understand when she becames a mother herself. Soon my mother would meet my father, she was out collecting ingredients for Zecora when a royal guard come towards her. He looked lost and some timberwolves were after him, my mother just had to help him.
She waited till he ran passed her then she moved quickly distracting them towards her, she fought with them till they all ran off. Araneo then went off looking for the royal guard, once she'd finally found him she calmed him from being spooked. Then asked “what are you doing out here?” He was still a bit rattled as he spoke, “I was sent out here to find Zecora but I'd gotten lost.” Nodding to him she walked with him to Zecora's, once at Zecora's the stallion said “Zecora I'm Dreogan the royal guard of the Crystal Empire, Princess Cadance asked for your assistances.”  Zecora nodded to Dreogan then began gathering what she needed, Araneo stepped outside with Dreogan as they waited for Zecora. After a while Zecora was ready and they all headed back to the Crystal Empire. Araneo and Dreogan began talking with each other starting to become close, Zecora smiled knowing what will be for the two. It didn't take long till they was at the Crystal Empire, Princess Cadence meet them as they came up. It has seemed that Flurry Heart was acting oddly and Princess Cadence, Skining Armor needed Zecora to help them. Zecora didn't need Araneo's help with this so my mother went with Dreogan to tour the empire. They mostly just talked knowing each other more and soon becoming much more then just friends. Zecora found Araneo telling her they would need to stay a bit longer which made my mother very much please to stay on longer. When Dreogan wasn't working he was with Araneo, when she wasn't helping Zecora. The two of them spent any or all their time together, when Zecora was no longer needed Araneo had a choice to make, return back to the everfree forest with Zecora. Or stay at the Crystal Empire with Dreogan. Of course the choice was made easy for her when Dreogan asked her to marry him.
Zecora went back without my mother, she spread the news around for all to know, Araneo's mother was both happy and worried for her. You see what my mother didn't know was that, that the strange pony she meet as a filly was Aranya her great ancestor, whom was a spider pony. My grandmother's parents was lucky she didn't become a spider pony, however it was still within the family, she feared it would fall upon Aroneo's children. A few weeks before my mother's wedding day Zecora and my grandmother went to Araneo's new home to spend the next few weeks with her before her wedding. While they was there Alorisa my grandmother finally told Araneo about their bloodline. “Araneo my darl'n daughter it's time you understand more of our family. One of your great ancestors is a spider pony, the strange spider pony you meet as a filly is your ancestor. Her name is Aranya she is to believed to have been my great grandmother's mother. The spider pony genetics seems to skip from generation to generation, It skipped me however there is a 50/50 chance that the genetics will be within your filly or colt. Just please understand that he/she will change from pony to spider pony then full spider pony. I don't want you or Dreogan to think something is wrong with your filly or colt and end up seeking out Zecora for help. Araneo I love you and I wanted you to know of this, do you understand my darl'n?” she asked Araneo. Araneo stayed silent then got up and walked out of her home to think about all her mother had told her. Araneo soon found herself at Dreogan's where she sat and told him all that her mother had said. Dreogan sat silently for a moment then said lovingly to Araneo “then we will learn all we can from Zecora, Alorisa, and Aranya. We will embrace whatever our filly or colt will be.”
Araneo smiled then kissed him “your right Dreogan we'll love our son/daughter no matter what.” she said then kissed him once again before heading back home. Alorisa was waiting for Araneo worried about her, Araneo told her mother what Dreogan had said then she told her mother something else. “Mother I'm pregnant Dreogan doesn't know yet.” she said smiling brightly. Alorisa hugged her daughter with tears in her eyes saying to her “you'll make a great mother Araneo.” Araneo and Dreogan's wedding day finally came Alorisa walked her daughter down the asile. Everyone was there Princess Celestia was asked to marry them of course, Princess Luna, Cadance, Shining Armor was there as well. Aranya was even seen in the back of the palace. As they said their vows Araneo whispered to Dreogan “we take you as my husband and their father.” Dreogan's eyes widen as he says unknowingly out loud “your pregnant?” Everyone gasped in shock Alorisa and Araneo just smiled, Araneo nodded “yes I am” she said. Everyone cheered in happiness for the couple. After the wedding Zecora came to the two, she looked at Araneo and asked if she wished to know if they were having a filly or colt. Dreogan left it up to her he'd be happy either way, so Araneo said shocking them both “I feel we'll have a filly and her name will be Widow Rogue.” Zecora smiled nodding to them then stepped away. Dreogan kissed her lovingly saying “that's a beautiful name,” they were both pleased and happy. Their days after were perparing their home for their filly, soon days became weeks and sure enough on a very hot summers night. I was born.
My mother was right about her feeling I was her little filly. My fillyhood was a different one, I spent time with my grandmother and godmother Zecora. Causing trouble with the timberwolves, scaring Flurry Heart a lot and of course learning magic, spells, and potions with Zecora and Princess Twilight. My mother and father did see the changes in me shifting from pony to spider pony but that never stopped me, I kept right on learning and being the unique pony I was born to be. As I got older ponies kept away from me my only friends was in the everfree forest or Fluttershy. There was one day I was out in my shifted form and a group of ponies started picking on me. Throwing things at me and calling me names, then this mare came out of nowhere and defended me. After she chased them off she flew back to me and said “what a pair of airheads. Are you alright?” I couldn't help but laugh at her she was so sweet and tough all in a wild bundle of a gray pegasus. “Yes I'm fine, I guess things never change.” I said to her then said “it don't bother you that I'm a freak?” She laughed so hard she fell to the ground “are you kidding? Freak is my middle name...okay maybe not but it does sound hot.” she said then added “I'm Adelle Star nice to meet ya.” Shaking my head laughing I said “I'm Widow Rogue the freak.” We laughed so hard our sides hurt, from that day on she was my best friend and protector.
She was there for me when I moved from the Crystal Empire to Ponyville, I've lived here for six years and didn't have anymore worries of being called a freak anymore. Since my teen years I've become fully spider pony and everyone wasn't use to seeing a spider pony walking around. So I got called freak once again but I learned that everyone didn't know about my kind so I asked Twilight and Zecora to help me have everyone understand more about what I am. Soon everyone understood and didn't freak out seeing me. Now as an adult I've learned to control when I'm in full spider pony form thanks to Zecora I can be a pony when I want and spider pony when I'm just feeling diferent. So that's how I'm both spider and pony I'm a very friendly spider pony as well, when I'm mad I stay in my spider pony form and I don't speak to anyone. Most the time you'd find me being very playful with everyone. After telling her life story Stargazer and Rose seemed honored to have meet Widow and asking about what she was. “I'm very glad to have meet you Widow and thank you for telling us your story” Stargazer said. Rose nodded then said “and I thought changeling's had a bad time. Now I know different and glad to say I know a spider pony.” She smiled then jumped as a big gray blur flew by her “what in the world is or was that?” she asked, Stargazer just shrugged Widow just laughed. “That's Adelle she's always here for some peanut butter cake” she said looking over to her best friend. Adelle looked over towards her friend and with a big mouth full of cake said “what? Did I miss something?” Widow, Stargazer, and Rose just laughed Widow walked over and just said “only the greatest story ever told.”  Stargazer and Rose said to the two friends “it was nice meeting you and we hope to see you again Widow.” Then they both left the shop leaving Adelle stuffing her face and Widow just laughing at her friend. “Maybe next time it'll be your story to tell and I'll stuff my face with cake.” Widow said as both friends walked out of Sugarcube Corner laughing.
I hope you all enjoyed this story of my oc Widow Rogue as for a few of the other ponies I mentioned in this story well they aren't really just names I made up (someone else did lol) You see Stargazer and Rose are actual friends of mine on Kik and Adelle  Star well that's my fiances oc the others well duh everyone knows them from my little pony (duh ofc) all but the mother, father, grandmother and the ancestor names I had my friends give me those (good names huh?) Anyway's I'm the writer (as if you didn't know already) and I really do hope you the reader enjoyed this who knows I might write another story about someone else's oc maybe Adelle who knows. Thanks for reading and hopefully you'll be reading something else of mine.

Black and White in Grey: Chapter 8
Author’s note: I was on a roll and thought I might post the next chapter as well!
I’ll have to warn you about STRONG-ISH LANGUAGE in here. I couldn’t bring myself to keep it all clean. I did attempt to warn you, even though I know that most people skip the author’s notes... oh well...
This was a fun chapter to write, so I hope it is just as fun to read! Things get steamy, but not in the way most would think - fellow gutter minds, hahaha!
Lets go! Enjoy!
CHAPTER 8: IT’S NOT FUN AND GAMES, UNTIL IT IS
This was not happening. This was not happening.
It’s hard to explain, but Discord wasn’t joking when he said he wanted to catch up with her. Or rather, for her to catch up with him… in the Dream Realm…
She lost Discord in the Dream Realm.
She wasn’t prepared for him to suddenly jump in head first – when he said that he wanted to ‘get the ball rolling’ – as he put it. He left her with a poke the her muzzle and a cute ‘You’re it’ before teleporting away. Since she felt the foreign presence calling from the far-away Dream Realm, the pony knew it was Discord.
It wasn’t really her fault, but Luna scolded herself for not taking it as a given that the Lord of Chaos would pull a stunt like this. What an ass. He was roaming the minds of her subject freely now, and probably driving them to madness as he went. Well, not without driving her to madness in the process.
He just knew how to get under her skin.
As she chased his presence dream throughout dream, he only left her a single glance at him before he jumped into someone else’s dream. It was infuriating how he seemed to run circles around her. The princess was scrambling around in her own realm like a headless chicken, with the intention to find Discord and prevent him from doing anything dumb, all while checking the subjects’ dream for nightmares.
She actually stopped her chase with the crazed spirit just to take care of a few distressed subjects that were, in fact, terrorized by nightmares. It took 3 subjects with nightmares, for her to notice that Discords movements in the realm had frozen during those times along with her.
It confused her, but it mostly fueled the fire within her even more. The blasted, petty, irrational, competitive side of her felt almost offended that he felt the need to wait for her to finish her duty as princess, before continuing their ridiculous chase. The subject was left almost confused.
She was the Princess of the Night and this was her realm.
No rival ever had to wait on her in her own realm. She didn’t care how messed up that sounded. She was determined to catch that menacing draconiquus – and scold him for wasting her time. She was angry… but when Discord started taunting her in the brief moments she caught up to him, she was pissed. Fueled with a goal and furious for a reason.
She loved it.
Discord would leave comments, like, “Get with it, sleepy head!” or, “You can’t even catch me in your dreams!”
For the longest time, the pony stayed silent, only focusing on trying to hit him with a non-fatal energy blast – at least enough to just startle him – but soon gave in to the burning need to snap something back at him, “Maybe I’d be more eager to stop you if your insults weren’t so predictable!”
Oh, that struck a nerve and Luna saw it. She knew that would get to him.
The Lord stood frozen in an open meadow with clear skies, his fingers in mid-snap – about to jump to another subject’s mind, when he heard the insult the princess spat at him. He looked positively startled and, much to Luna’s satisfaction, deliciously insulted.
He gasped, “What a nerve you have! Calling me, the Lord – the embodiment of Chaos itself – predicta…” Discord couldn’t bring himself to even finish the word. He was too caught up in the smug smiled of the dark princess. If Discord was faking this, he was a damn good actor.
“Oh, but it was only the first word that came to mind, Lord Discord!” she said in a mocking concern. In her mind, she was just a relieved as she was smug that the chase was over, but she milked what she could from his stupor, “There are many other adjectives suitable for my name-calling towards you! Like… boring! Dull. Bland. Shall I continue?”
The look on his face was priceless. He seemed so out of his element – wordplay intended! Luna soaked in the shift in his expression, from surprised to determined. She gotten to him, she already won. Everything about to follow, was just an added bonus. If Discord wanted to extend their banter by trying to pull his ego out of the hole it dove into, she would accept any comeback he threw at her.
“Princess, your fire is a sight for sore eyes.”
Maybe, except that comeback.
What the hell did that even mean? That was so random, coming from him. His expression was one she wouldn’t be able to imagine any day before now. It was odd, but so intriguing. She wanted more of this… whatever she had brought out of him.
It almost threw her off her game, but she tried matching his stance with one step forward, “Well, little cults that toy with fire get their fingers burned.”
“Oh? But I can’t resist – can’t keep my claws at bay.” Discord said lowly, taking a step of his own towards Luna, hungry eyes boring into hers, accompanied with a smirk, almost making her flustered for a reason she couldn’t comprehend. Her expression wouldn’t falter though.
“What else is there to expect from someone with no self-restraint?” Luna smugly said, stepping towards him once more. Closer. She needed him closer. No matter how much this sudden change of pace made her wonder about the funny tension in the air.
“You are one to tell me I have no self-restraint… after hunting me down like a predator?” Discord questioned, his voice still lowered and quiet. Stalking towards her, making her almost blush. Why?
“As any predator…” Luna paused, noticing how close they were, standing but a two feet apart, “…I have an acquired taste.”
She was almost certain that she didn’t control her own tongue anymore. She didn’t know what came over her, but she couldn’t stop. This whole situation was pulling her into something that just didn’t seem to ever be satisfied.
“Is that so, princess?” Discord practically purred, bending down just above her level, making Luna internally quiver in anticipation.
This was getting… very… interesting.
“What the hell, guys?!”
An unknown voice suddenly broke the noble’s intense gaze they held, only to look at the mare that interrupted them.
Cadence. This was the mind of Cadence. They were in Cadence’s dream, the princess of love. Her comment fell on an odd place of Luna’s insides, feeling embarrassed that they were caught, even though, in her mind, it was just aggressive banter.
It was nothing to be ashamed of.
“Anyway…” Cadence spoke up again, seeing that neither of the two culprits were going to, “Discord, I wanted to talk to you? You know, in private… about that thing…?”
“Oh, right! That thing! We can talk all you want once you’ve escaped Dreamland!” Discord said, his playful, normal tone ripping what had Luna lulled moments ago, out under her hooves like a blanket. She was also confused by Cadence’s request. She couldn’t ponder too long about it, as there was a shift in Cadence mind.
“This is a dream?” the Princess of Love questioned, earning a nod from both of them. She spaced out for a moment, “Wow… can I do stuff, like shape-shifting and change the grass into a pit of dry beans?”
“You can try, yes…?” Luna said with a cringe. This was all weird!
“Changing things and manipulating common laws of nature is my shtick! You darn lucid dreamers…” Discord mumbled, crossing his upper limbs like a stubborn child, “Why would you go with dried beans, anyway?”
Cadence scoffed with no real bite, “Are you kidding? Have you ever put you hoof into a sack of dried beans? It feels so good.”
“It’s said to be therapeutic.” Luna added in agreement, before shaking her head, to focus, “Discord, we should probably go.”
“What? But I wanted to teach Cadence the fundamentals of chaos!” Discord whined, causing Luna to roll her eyes. Her horn glowed as she prepared to teleport herself to the waking realm.
Before they knew it, the deities, were in the throne room once again. Discord’s arrival was delayed, as they each teleported themselves. The princess check the clock and found that her shift was as good as done. Her eyes widened. Her subjects… she had neglected them!
“Well as fun as this was, Lulu, I’m beat.” Discord said, yawning, “You sure put up with a lot more than I remember.”
“I didn’t put up with anything!” she said worried, “I didn’t attend to my subjects tonight! I let myself get distracted by you – and it’s not like I can just go back and fix it, because everyone is waking up soon! I need to –”
“Oh, Lulu, you are such a character!” Discord laughed, Luna too panicked to be mad at his careless attitude. He calmed down, still smiling, “We tore through everypony’s mind tonight! We were on fire! You covered every nightmare like a pro and nothing stood in your way.”
“Everypony?”
That’s right, the chase! She chased Discord through every dream of everypony sleeping that night. In a normal shift, she could cover half the kingdom and cover the other half the following day.
But this time, she managed everpony. It was huge! She didn’t even feel as if she was working, it all just flew by… because of the Lord of Chaos, Discord. He made it happen. He made her forget about almost everything that was bothering her for a whole night.
She just took about 12 hours to realize it.
She looked up at Discord and smiled – there was no use containing it. Discord’s smug expression faltered as the dark princess lit up. Smiling at him – for him. He couldn’t help but give his own genuine smile back.
That fire. It captivated him.
“Thank you, Discord. That was… something else, wasn’t it?”
“Do you expect anything else from me?”
They shared a short laugh, before falling into a definite, awkward silence, which Luna felt obligated to brake, “Let’s not do that again any time soon.”
“Agreed. See you next week.”
“What?”
Discord didn’t reply. He was already gone.
