Being an Angel

Getting snapped back into reality from AJ calling his name. "Huh? wha-? W-what's going on?" Saving Angel said trying to figure out where they were. "Ya okay Sugarcube? Ya fell asleep shortly after we left Sugar Cube Corner." AJ said looking at the half awake foal on her back. "Sorry, I didn't think I was that tired." Saving said with a yawn.

Looking around Saving noticed that they were in the middle of a field a little ways from town. “What are we doing all the way out here mumma?” Saving said looking at AJ with confusion. “Look up.” AJ said pointing directly upwards.

Saving looked up into the sky to see what she was talking about.

“What in Equestria-?” Saving said looking at the giant floating mansion sitting above them.

“That there, Saving; is Rainbow Dash’s house.” AJ said looking back at Saving with a smile.

Saving sat there on AJ’s back looking up, in a stunned silence “RAINBOW DASH! ARE YA HOME!?” AJ called up to the cloud home.

“AJ IS THAT YOU!?” A voice called back.

“YEAH, COME DOWN HERE! I HAVE SOMEPONY Y’ALL WILL WANT TAH MEET!” AJ said looking back at Saving and winking.

“ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT! I’LL BE RIGHT DOWN!” She called down.

“Just give her a minute (she can be a little lazy at times).” AJ said somewhat mumbling the last part.

After about five minutes of AJ and Saving waiting for Rainbow to come down AJ was starting to lose her patience “RAINBOW DASH! GET YER BUT DOWN HERE NOW! BEFORE I COME UP THERE AND DRAG IT DOWN MAH SELF!” AJ said looking up at the house tapping her hoof on the ground, trying to find the patience.

“There’s no need to yell AJ, I’m standing right here.” A voice said coming from behind the two ponies standing there.

“GAH! Don’t do that Rainbow! How did ya even get down here without us noticing!?” AJ said turning around to look at Rainbow Dash.

“What? You gonna tell me you didn’t notice the cloud that came from behind my house? You know those things don’t move on their own.” Rainbow dash said with a cockiness in here voice.

“Yeah okay, ah want ya ta meet somepony.” AJ said taking Saving off of her back.

“This is Saving Angel, he is a foal ah found on mah farm. He didn’t have a home so ah adopted him as mah own.” AJ said scooting Saving up to Rainbow Dash.

“Hey squirt! I’m Rainbow Dash, but you can call me Dash.” Dash said extending her hoof to give Saving a hoof bump.

“Hi Dash.” Saving said meekly extending his own hoof out to hoof bump her.

“What uh- what happened to your wing squirt?” Dash said looking at the stump on Saving’s back where his wing would be.

“Oh uh- aye uh- d-don’t uh- wan’ to talk about it.” Saving said placing his hoof over the stump.

“It’s okay kid, I understand. I just have one question about it though if you don’t mind my asking.” Dash said looking Saving in the eyes.

“Well it depends on ye question.” Saving said looking back at Dash.

“Was it from birth?” Dash said flat-out, no hesitation what-so-ever.

“Yes it was, aye was uh- one month early.” Saving said.

“Oh- well I’m sorry…” Dash said as a small awkward silence fell between the three ponies. “Well how about this? Since you cannot fly, would you like me to take you up in my house to show you around?” Dash offered trying to lighten the mood.

“That would be awesome- but only if it’s okay with mumma.” Saving said looking back at AJ.

“Yeah mumma! Is it okay?” Dash said mimicking Saving Angel’s accent.

“Hmm- I don’t know. How do ya plan to get ‘em up there?” AJ said looking up at the house unsure.

“By carrying him on my back- Duh!” Dash said as though the information was already told to AJ.

“That’s what ah thought you’d say…” AJ was looking up unsure. “Yeah ah guess ya can, just be careful okay? And Saving, ah’ll be at the Library when ya guys are done; meet me there, okay?” AJ said Taking Saving off of her back.

“Okay mumma!” Saving said while climbing of Dash’s back.

“And also, behave- the both of ya!” AJ said pushing her face close to dash’s with a death glare.

After standing like that for a few seconds Dash said “What, are you gonna kiss me or something?” AJ backed up a few feet. “Just go before ah change mah mind.” AJ said as she started to walk towards the library tree.
