Secret Stealer 1--Rainbow Dash

PART 2, STORY 1-AND THEN THERE'S FLUTTERSHY

Fluttershy entered the store next. She needed the same thing Twilight did. Rainbow said, "May I help you?" "Uhm...well....*squeak*..." Said Fluttershy. "I, um, kinda, maybe, sorta...uh...you see, I see these strange shadows in the dark at night, and uh, I don't really feel the need to leave my room to go to the bathroom when I need to, because I'm afraid something will, I don't know, jump out and grab me by the hoof or something, so I just burrow under my covers with my plushies and...and...uh...um..." Fluttershy said in a voice barely louder than a whisper.

"Ah." Said Dash. She raced over to the other side of the store. Fluttershy made out a dim rainbow trail when she followed the clerk. Huh? But I thought the only pony that could make such a colorful trail like that was--

"This what you want?" Rainbow asked, holding the same box of waterproof mattress protectors that Twilight had purchased earlier. "Um, yeah..." Fluttershy replied softly. Rainbow speed-walked back to the other side of the store. Fluttershy kept up with her. Rainbow was speed-walking so fast that her store clerk outfit pants slid down to her gaskin, revealing her cutie mark. "Whoops!" Dash muttered, pulling her pants back up. But Fluttershy had seen her visible cutie mark. No way! It must be-

"Name?" Rainbow asked. "Um, I'm Fluttershy..." Fluttershy mumbled, almost mouthing it. But Rainbow already knew her name so it didn't matter if she heard her anyway. Tik tik tik tik tak. "That'll be $3.50," said Dash."Oh dear...I forgot my wallet..." Fluttershy stuttered. Dash thought quickly. "Uh...on the house," Rainbow said. Fluttershy's ear went straight back up. "Oh, why, um, thank you," said Fluttershy, blushing. She took the bag in her mouth and flew out of the store. Rainbow knew she represented the element of loyalty, but these 2 secrets were just too good to keep.
