The Secrets of the Immortal Fluttershy Flamel

by NicolasFlamel

***

"It's a beautiful day Angel, isn’t it?" Fluttershy said sitting on the grass.

The curious bunny just nodded quickly and continued eating his carrot. Fluttershy loved the days that she could look at the sky, and watch the morning sun shone harmonious. It was very satisfying, feel the warm affection of the sun's rays on her face, watch the butterflies fluttering around like little ballerinas, dancing happily in the air enjoying the beautiful day. As each of those days, Fluttershy and Angel decided to leave and make a small tea party under the shade of an oak, and sitting quiet in that place so special to her.

She sat back, closed her beautiful calypso eyes, and inhale the sweet air of the prairie. It was a clean, refreshing air at once. Exhaled a sigh satisfactory, and relaxed for a moment and then enjoy the view.

There was nothing at all that could disturb her.

"Hello Fluttershy! What you doing?" Said one pony so exciting it makes Fluttershy jump scared to the oak branch.

Looking down she found the smiling face of her friend Pinkie Pie, also with a straight Angel face, who looked angry, to get out scared to the tree branch.

"Oh sorry, Fluttershy, I don't want to scare you," said Pinkie Pie. Fluttershy flying low to the ground, "Do not worry Pinkie Pie it was nothing."

Fluttershy sat down on red blanket with white stripes she always carried to such meetings. She took a small sip of her teacup, and invited Pinkie Pie to accompany her and admire the beautiful day. The clouds passed slowly across the sky, little breezes fresh air caressed her face and shook her mane to a harmonious compass.

"Is there anything I can help Pinkie Pie?" Fluttershy asked timidly. Angel continued his second carrot eating it quickly.

Pinkie Pie had a mouth full of cakes, it seemed a little strange. She had not brought cupcakes. In fact not even know that Pinkie Pie brought cupcakes with her.

Pinkie swallows as hard as she could, "Sure," answered "after tomorrow is our weekly meeting and just came to remind you that you are responsible for keeping the food this time."

"Oh yes, you're right," she said after eating one of the cakes that Pinkie offered, "I'd completely forgotten. Thanks Pinkie Pie, you're such good friend"

Pinkie Pie pulled out what seemed to be another tray of cupcakes. What was Fluttershy wondered as she had to take things out of nothing, was strange to see that a pony getting anything from nothing to just say she had, as the party cannon. The curious object, carried within itself a number of items for parties. She thought for a moment, while eating a blackberry muffin, to realize that there was no reason to think, it was just Pinkie Pie.

"Of course," replied "We don´t want to wepeat when Wainbow Dash was in chad of winwing food" Pinkie Pie said with her mouth full of cupcakes again.

"We’re lucky to be prepared with food. Rainbow is a good friend," gave one more sip her cup of tea, and ate another cupcake and continued,"but cooking is not her thing and apparently we forget that time."

Fluttershy looks again blue sky and then turned to Pinkie Pie, "What do you say if you and I go to the market? I'll need a little help, and also needs to buy food and order seeds for my birds"

Pinkie Pie nodded; her mouth too full to answer. They finished tea, of course at that time for Fluttershy there was no rush.

That was a time, she preferred to enjoy tranquility and serenity. At the end after a few more minutes, it was time to go to market to buy supplies and some food for the meeting. All the way, it was spent talking about how beautiful it was the day. Pinkie Pie added Cake twins second birthday is soon, and of course she was invited. Fluttershy thanked her with a smile accompanied by a "Thank you" to her pink friend.

First, their went to Fluttershy's cottage, to get some bits and seek her bag for shopping. She went to her bedroom,  asked Pinkie to wait for her a moment in the room. She noted the number of beautiful birds, squirrels, mices and even a big bear who lived inside the cottage. It seemed different than her friend had more contact with animals than with the other ponies. But that was not discussed, and there is no reason to give attention an issue that every pony knows already. Moreover, she enjoy a beautiful melody of a pair of robins.

Fluttershy came downstairs a bit rushed. With her saddlebag half tied in her flank.

"I'm sorry if I made you wait Pinkie," said as she tied her saddlebag and heading for the exit.

"No problem, it was just five minutes fifty-two seconds," said jumping to the door.

Count the time without even having a watch, that's new, she thought.

Before leaving, Fluttershy looked for Angel, to ask him if he wanted to go shopping with them. The little white rabbit shook his head and continued eating a salad of lettuce, cucumber and carrot that had prepared itself.

Fluttershy closed the door and started walking towards the market. Pinkie meanwhile kept jumping and jumping with a smile on her face. Jump is like a second way of walking for her, never tired of it. Fluttershy had tried it one day, but did not last one hundred meters when she began to feel tired, Pinkie meanwhile kept jumping as nothing. They continued their way to the market, Fluttershy once again observe the sky.

It is a very beautiful day, too beautiful now that I see. I hope this one will just a day, be no more, she thought.

Ponyville’s market. It is perhaps one of the largest and busiest places in town. Sales can be seen all around. It's apparently the only place where any pony could find what it needed. Not because that's also one of the most popular markets for travellers, who come in search of objects that only can be found here. Plus, they also can sell what they have and go home with a good gain.

Sales of foods such as carrots, asparagus, cherries and apples were the most popular. The number of buyers who come to this place, it makes the perfect place to start a business and prosper. All sellers advertised their products; everypony could hear the names of what they sold and some other by competition for customers. Also that day had many offers, what it called a lot more buyers.

Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie went to a spot of asparagus, which ran with the luck to find the last two bunches. Fluttershy took them and paid with three bits, two for the asparagus and one as a tip from the seller who was grateful. They kept looking for tomatoes, unfortunately all had sold out. But the saleswoman asked them to return in a few minutes because she was waiting for a second delivery. They walked until they stopped at the middle of the busy street to check the list.

"Okay, next on the list," said Pinkie Pie.

Fluttershy took the list from her saddlebag, lifted the cover with her wing. It was one of the advantages of being a Pegasus. Extended the list on the ground and examine what was missing.

"Well, I bought asparagus but have to wait for the tomatoes, so ..." examined the list again. "Just need to buy seeds for my birds and apples"

"Whoo hooo Apples! We will go to see AppleJack" Pinkie Pie said very excited. After a few laps around Fluttershy, took courses towards apples stall.

"What are you waiting for?" Said Pinkie Pie again, ducking and moving her fluffy tail.

Fluttershy, who was a little dizzy to follow her friend, shook her head and smiled. Then she realized that the market was increasingly failing. She feel panic and ran behind Pinkie Pie.

"Wait, don’t leave me here!" Fluttershy cried

Fluttershy ran through the crowd to reach Pinkie Pie. Apparently this day, there was a lot of influx of ponies who wanted to take advantage of deals. Careful to not to hit and throw someone Fluttershy ran, accidentally hit one of the buyers. She fell to the ground on her back, throwing out all in the bag. Tried to get up quickly and get her things, but apparently shed had lost her breath.

The individual who accidentally hit, took her a hoof to help her up.

"You don't know how so sorry I am," said brushing the dust on their wings. Her pink mane covered her face, preventing watched with whom she had encountered.

Their purchases were lying on the ground and immediately started to collect them. It was a little surprised to see the stranger helping to collect their belongings. She still had not seen him from the front, but she noticed a black hoof and a thin leg. Being everything in place already, she got up and could watch it from the front.

It was a male deer, had brown fur and a little darker on the back. The coat was lighter on the belly to the legs. A large head and a snout with a black nose and wet, besides bringing a pair of glasses on his nose.  A couple of big-whites branched antlers out of his head.

Seemed show older than he looked.

"I think this is yours lady" the deer said with an English accent, raised the list and a bunch of asparagus.

"Oh, thank you very much"

His voice was a little hoarse and thick, and denoted a little older. Fluttershy watched him for a moment and had the opportunity to notice a pair of clear hazel eyes. They showed incredible youth, was hypnotized.

"Miss, are you okay?" asked a little surprised.

Fluttershy shook her head, "Yes, I'm fine. You don't know how so sorry, I should watch where I was going and-

The deer laughed a little.

"No problem," he replied, "In fact, it was my fault. I should watch where I was going"

"Ah ... It was ... It was my ..." babble.

"Besides cute, lovely," smiled "I would love to know your name, madam"

Fluttershy felt a little bit uncomfortable, and it was she who collided with him. Moreover he was not even moved. He was placed in front of the seeds stall. The owners who were inside looking for the stranger’ request. Upon completion of this came out and handed a gray small bag.

"Here you are, sir, I hope you serve," said the owner a little embarrassed. He turned his face and looked at his favourite client, "Fluttershy! How are you?” said Mr. Seed “Glad to see you"

"How are you Mr. Seed, How have you been?"

"Very good girl, and do not worry about your seeds, I took the dare to put them aside for you,"

"Thank you Mr. Seed" thanked Fluttershy with her charming voice, "could give them to me to continue, is I have a bit rushed, please"

"I see that still creatures on this planet who still say 'Please'," the deer said with a smile on his face.

"Here you go pretty, is a little bit heavy. Are you sure you can all by yourself? "Asked

"Of course Mr. Seed," she replied, "Well I brought a friend to help me"

Fluttershy tried to close the bag, but the deer stopped her. He started to search for something in his bag as he spoke to the owner.

"Could you do me a favour and take this bag to the house of Miss Fluttershy, please," asked kindly, "and do not worry, I'll pay the cost of the bag and even will pay the shipment"

"Oh no, no, no, no," interrupted Fluttershy, "I cannot accept it for certain-

"It's no trouble, take it as a compensation for me for making you fall"

Fluttershy blushed slightly stranger's kindness.

Mr. Seed was about to refute when he saw the large number of bits on the shelf. He did not know how many had, but they were many. Fluttershy now felt uncomfortable, she tries to ask him to please let her pay, and don't worry that she could alone, but all was in vain.

The stranger insisted on paying. She heard her name from the crowd.

"Fluttershy" listened in the distance.

"Fluttershy" listened a second voice.

The voices came from the crowd of ponies on the market. She tried to see the ones who were calling. She concentrated and hear the voices again. They were apparently Pinkie Pie and Rarity, but look at them and get to them would be impossible.

"I think it are they who are speaking to you, Miss" the stranger said pointing to one of his antlers.

Indeed, Pinkie Pie and Rarity were those who were looking for her. They seemed a little worried. Fluttershy rose a little so they could locate it. Seeing went galloping ponies in the crowd that travelled at that hour. With a little effort, Rarity found a way through all the ponies to come up with Fluttershy.

"Fluttershy darling, where have you been?" She asked. She gave her a little hug and continued, "We've been looking for you. We were worried"

"Sure," said Pinkie Pie popping out of a barrel, "You were behind me, and after I didn't see you, I worried, I looked for you and found Rarity, and we've been looking ever since"

"Sorry," said bowing her head "was not my intention to cause a lot of troubles"

Rarity gave her a hug, "No way are nuisances, we're friends, we care for and care about one another. No need to apologize”

That was enough for Fluttershy feel good. That and a hug from her friends that showed it did not matter the situation they would always be with her. The embrace ended and laughed, at the end Rarity watched by friend's shoulder at the stranger who was watching them.

"Who is it?"

The strange deer smiled again, "I'm just a strange visitor who had the pleasure of meeting Miss here today"

Pinkie's face lit up drawing an impossibly smile.

"It means you're new here," appearing behind him in an instant, "that's means you have no friends and if you have no friends means you're alone," she said after popping in a small jar.

"Technically that's true," replied gently, "but I'll stay for a while I come just passing through. I have planed stay a couple of days and continue my way,”

Pinkie Pie's brain quickly analyses the situation, while her head makes small needle movements like a clock, turning her head in a position relatively impossible. When she finished her head return to its original position as an alarm clock ringing. A fact that made Mr. Seed throws coins in shock.

"I know!" Animated said, "You can come to the babies Cake birthday party, is tomorrow, so you can spend before you go and give you a welcome Pinkie Pie style "

"Pinkie Pie stops!" Rarity said, "Do not you see you're bothering the gentleman here present"

"No, not bothering me at all. In fact I like the proposal, "Pinkie Pie's eyes lit up like never before. They looked like a pair of glasses lit, then the odd deer continued, "But I'm afraid I'll have to politely decline," Pinkie Pie mood deflated like a balloon.

"I have some unfinished business before I left, so I'm afraid that unable to attend, sorry "

"Too bad," said Rarity lifting up Pinkie Pie to the ground, looked a deflated balloon and that was the strangest thing she had done so far.

Mr. Seed continued counting the coins, was missing a few to count and separate the respective customer accounts, simple.

"Pinkie Pie's parties are the most celebrated in Ponyville, especially when are birthdays," Fluttershy said, "If you wanted to go before you leave, it will be in SugarCube Corner, the village bakery. You'll recognize when you see it. "

"Well, in that case will try to attend," he said. Pinkie Pie inflates unexpectedly instantly regaining her form. And once again made the owner throwing the bag with the change, and mixing accounts again.

"Seriously you will attend!" said Pinkie Pie hanging around the store.

"I see your friend again regained her form," letting out a small laugh.

Fluttershy watched the clock inside the store and noticed that she was running late to get home and now she had remembered that babies Cake party is tomorrow, had to buy the gift and also had to feed their animals. And was not finished shopping!

"Oh my goodness!” said surprised “I have to go. I'm sorry I have too much to do," she said goodbye and flew off to finish shopping.

Rarity and Pinkie Pie also kindly said goodbye, thanking Fluttershy have helped with the big bag of seeds. Especially Pinkie Pie who reminded him that the party is tomorrow and he was invited. They also had things to do; they walked together getting lost in the crowd of ponies market.

Mr. Seed was counting the bits in the bag and they were many, in all his years he had always taken the exact price of his products, and not all the time receives this amount of money, he had so much in front of him. Turn away the exact amount of the payment of the sack of seeds and turn away the rest giving it to strange deer.

"Do not worry; you can keep the change as a thank you for their services. Also take it as payment for delivery”

Apparently he doesn’t need to be told twice to get accepted. It was something he had learned. If a client gives you tips accept it without reason, without making sure that it was good.

"And tell me sir, do you planed to stay a short time, isn't it?" asked Mr. Seed tried to make a conversation with his customer.

The stranges deer do not answer. He was following his gaze to Fluttershy going from side to side, apparently looking for of a gift for babies Cake. There was something about this pony, which made him feel great power around her. An incredible powerful force emanated from it. His pair of eyeglasses reflecting light lit up at sunset, confusing small glasses with his eyes making it look mysterious. He lowered his head looking to the ground and sighed.

My search is over, he thought. A small smile crossed his muzzle. He turned his gaze to the owner of the store and watched him for a moment before starting.

"That girl who was with us a while, Fluttershy is a little young for her own shopping, don't you think?" said trying to hide his interest.

Mr. Seed who had begun to save the bits in a box, he waited until the end to respond. Locked the box and put it away and he went to where the stranger and answered.

"Do not worry sir, is an independent young mare"

"Yes it seems," he replied, "But it's also a bit shy to be eighteen, at most"

Mr. Seed will observe a little surprised by the comment for two reasons: the first being successful with the age of his favourite client and the second by the way he said it. It was a form ethereal denoting an interest toward her.

"Such is life when you've lived in an orphanage," he said.

The deer look changed completely to hear the comment of Mr. Seed.

"That girl spent the first ten years in an orphanage in Cloudsdale before being sent to an adoption centre," he continued. This time the comment caught the attention of the deer listened intently.

"After spending three years regulatory apparently threw her to her fate," he said in a tone more sad and melancholy, and continuous. "The poor filly had nowhere to go, wander the streets a while before one of her friends at the orphanage gave him a home. Luckily, her mother had left a small cottage near the Everfree Forest where it was installed and has lived there ever since."

"That's a sad story," said the deer. Then change the tone of voice and asked, "How do you know so much about her?"

Mr. Seed gave a sigh, "I was the one who found the door of the orphanage that night"

"I see," said fixing his sack on his side. Now he has a good excuse to stay out who is actually the pony. The old colt had given him a story he could use to their advantage, but thought twice. It wasn't the perfect way to look for clues, but if there was a place where he could find them.

Mr. Seed look again at the stranger, "Why the sudden interest in the girl?"

The deer looked intently seller before answering, "My interest is just curiosity if that is concerned," looked at his watch he carried in a pocket of the bag. "I think it's getting a bit late to get a place to stay for the night," he turned his back and turned his head to look at him, "Is there a hostel near here where can I spend the night?"

Mr. Seed brought his hoof to his chin and thought for a moment, "I'm sorry sir, but I think all the others are occupied by tourists who come to the Celebration of the Blue Moon," he replied.

The deer just sighed.

Mr. Seed asked to come over a little more to avoid saying it out loud.

"But I know in the town library can rent you a room for the night," said whispering. "But do not tell anyone"

Mr. Seed winked and the deer only gave a smile of gratitude. That said started to make way to the library. He turned around to ask.

"Is that giant tree you see from here?" stated the deer.

"Of course, you cannot miss, sir ..." was a bit puzzled, not knowing the name of the one who was helping.

The deer with a gesture of thanks went his way to the library.

"Excuse me sir, anyway, what is your name?"

He stopped and turned around with a smile on his snout replied, "The name, my dear friend, is just a label that society imposes on us to distinguish ourselves in a subtle and casual the rest, not by our abilities and characteristics of individual skills," He bowed slightly and continued,"But if you want my dear friend, you can call me John, John Deer"

With that said goodbye once again leaving the seller so amazed by the educated and refined with which answered him. He had remembered to bring order his favourite client in a few minutes.

In the distance he saw a deer walking to the library, where for this night would be a place to rest. The antlers cast a playful shadow on the floor, giving some encouragement to the common shade deer. The first orange rays caressed the sky announcing the start of the evening.

Dairy's note

There is no way you can understand how long and miserable, has been my life. Not only I've seen and lived through the years, watching the world turns and changes around me, also I've lost countless friends and family who were, have passed to a better life, where they could rest in peace. That's part is one that I want to change.

I wanna die...

Before, I was an exceptionally strong and brave pony, known for my ability to cope with any situation, regardless of the consequences. But now, with the passing of time, I've developed an attitude of shyness and weakness, dealing with the harrowing idea of seeing the deaths of those around me. The mere thought of dying is something that fills me with some satisfaction since by this time all I wanted was to live as an ordinary pony: get married, have foals, see them grow old, and wait to die. Unfortunately this idea was crushed with a word that has defined my life all these years; immortality. Of course, not only have I travelled, but I also learned magic in it's purest essence, long before the unicorns became the only ones to use it to this day.

After years of travelling and living on most of the planet, I decided to go in search of new horizons to settle. It was then that I reached a small town in development, a place that was full of joy and opportunities. After spending a few days there I found that I preferred to stay and settle there, to build a cottage that I've been changing through the years to leave a legacy. Until now I've decided to only have animals as friends. It's too hard for me to face the loss of someone I knew. Until the day I met the first of my new friends, who would change the mood of my life and help me live happily. Thanks to them, I've made a decision.

I've lived for a long, long time. I've seen things you could ever imagine. I’ve fought with unimaginable monsters do not even belong to the worst nightmares ponies. Visited places are beyond the scope of any other pony, including Pegasus. I've seen empires rise and fall, as kings come and went. Wars came and went. I've fought, I've fled and even I hid.

I've had works as a doctor, soldier, cook, police and thief. But the most enjoyable job has been to take care of animals.

My life has been long and harrowing enough, I guess. Regardless of all that, to this day I've found the happiness I missed.

The day is coming.
