Enjoy!
You feel branches whacking against your face and scratching your flank as you are bursting through the Everfree forest. The sun is beaming down it’s rays, making the situation even hotter than before, you are leaping over logs and you run from them, hoping to dear Celestia that they do not catch up with you, there is no telling what they will do if they catch you, it’s best not to think about it, you must just keep galloping, never stopping to look back, not even for a second, it is just too risky. You take a sharp left and then a sharp right, you are blocked by what looks like a relatively thin bush, and you jump through it, with even more branches scratching you. You have leaves in your mane and your tail and before you look down, you land flat on your blank, with your vision disappearing from the lack of energy, and you see a yellow Pegasus slowly scooting towards you, more afraid of you than you are of the ponies chasing you. Suddenly, all is blurry and then blackness, you hear a faint squeal, which could only be the Pegasus that was coming towards you. The rest of your senses fading, you try to hold on but you can’t all is gone. No sound, no sight, no smell, touch or even taste, you are numb.
You feel a cold hoof tough your forehead, it feels like an icicle melting you’re your head, very slowly. You try to open your eyes, it’s hard at first and your body is fairly reluctant to doing it but eventually you take control of it and they burst open, you notice the yellow Pegasus you thought was there isn’t any more. You start forcing your body up from lying down and you hear a slight squeak from under the bed. “H- Hello?”
“Eek!”
“Is anypony there?”
All is silent, you try to stand on your hooves but your head starts to go dizzy and you feel very light headed, luckily you grab onto the banister of the bed before you fall over. You grab on for dear life, or what’s left of you, you think about using your secret but you decide against it, you are far too weak to do it. You take a look at your flank and notice that you are all bandaged up, you have bandages nearly all over your body, doesn’t exactly look like a professional did it but it’s acceptable. You coat is still a light brown colour, with only slight blood stains on it, not enough to look as if you was in a fight but enough to notice if someone looks long enough. Your mane is still long and darker than the usual blond colour; a wash should clear it up. Hopefully, your eyes are still blue, hopefully.
You feel a slight tug on your back leg, you almost jump right out of your own skin at the feeling, and luckily you keep it inside. You peer down and see a gorgeous pink haired, yellow mare, you have never seen such beauty in your life, the sheer elegance of her has you almost in tears as your heart melts away, suddenly, thought start to flood in of you and her, locking hooves on a first date, but before you can go on, you are interrupted by her voice. “Uhm excuse me, sorry but uhm, could you please tell me why you jumped through my hedge?”
“Oh! I am so sorry, I am Ritus, I was just, running through the woods and I guess I took a wrong turn, I am really sorry, I will help anyway I can to repay you, again I am really sorry…” You bow your head in shame and the yellow Pegasus crawls out from under the bed and stand up.
“It’s fine, I guess uhm, you can leave it to me, it’s nothing really, but I was just about to give you a bath, I’m Fluttershy by the way, nice to meet you.” You take her hoof in yours and kiss the front of it, a gesture or kindness, she starts to blush, a lot until she notices you giggle, and her face is already bright red by the time she realises. She gently pulls back her hoof and starts to trot away, “Just lay back down while I get the tub going, you really do need a wash and I will need to re-do those bandages, if that’s okay, of course…”
“Its fine, thank you so much for taking care of me, I owe you a great deal, thanks.”
“It’s not a problem, I live to help ponies and animals, it’s what I do, I guess.” You slowly get back into the bed, as you lay down you start to take in your surroundings. You smell the beautiful fragrance of flowers all around you, then you notice that the place is literally filled with them, plant pots everywhere, roses, daffodils, violets, globe flower, hyacinth and so many more, it all looks so wonderful, and also very, very tasty. The bed you are in appears to be on the first floor, in an open kind of area, there are chairs in the middle of the room and a carpet of many colours, you are at the back end of the room, the chairs to your left, there is a corner, you assume that it must be the kitchen and next to that is the bathroom that Fluttershy went into to run the bath, speaking of which must be ready as you see her coming back out of the area. “The uhm bath is ready, just follow me, if that’s okay…”
“It’s fine Fluttershy, you don’t always have to say that you know?”
“Oh sorry, I uhm I didn’t mean to upset you…”
“You don’t always have to say sorry either.”
“Sorry, I mean uhm, sorry! Oh no, I did it again, sorry…”
“Oh I can tell this will be fun” You start to chuckle a bit. “Don’t worry about it too much, it’s not that bad, just try not to say sorry all of the time, you could never do anything wrong from what I can tell, you took me in, a complete stranger, you put bandages on me, let me rest in one of your beds when you could of just left me there, you are a very noble and generous pony, Fluttershy.”
She starts to blush again, her other blush had only just gone away as well, she sinks into her fur a bit, feeling very shy, even more so than before.
