Flutterb*tch

Rainbow Dash set out with her father to go find her friends. She looked up at her dad and asked,”Who should we find first? I mean, who would be easiest?”

“How about Fluttershy? She always seemed the gentle type. Maybe she will remain calm, and can think this through.”

So they carefully set towards Fluttershy’s hut. It was unusually loud as they approached. Fluttershy was yelling something indistinguishable. The cry of an animal was heard, then a loud thump. Dash and her father went to the back of the hut, and recoiled in shock. Fluttershy was in there, and so were the animals, but something was wrong.

“You! bring me the next one!”

Fluttershy looked angry. A deer approached, obviously scared out of its mind. In its mouth was a small bag of bits. Most of it was probably found when travelers dropped their wallets.

“And what have you brought me, filth?”

The deer laid down the bag of bits and backed away.

Fluttershy was muttering. “Twenty-seven, twenty-eight, twenty nine. Humph. You mock me with a pitiful gift as this?”

She gestured to a nearby bear.

“Kill it.”

The deer bolted, but the door was locked. The bear ripped off the deer’s head and chewed contentedly. The body was thrown into the other room by a team of falcons.

“What happened to Fluttershy?”

Dash muttered something that sounded suspiciously like “Flutterb*tch.”

We thought up a plan. Obviously Fluttershy was unstable, so she needed to be detained. I found a coil of rope nearby.

“Can you swoop in and grab Fluttershy?” I asked.

“Sure.”

Dash flew in and grabbed Fluttershy around the waist. I hog-tied her and tied down her wings as well. We carried her into the Everfree forest, Fluttershy screaming bloody murder the entire time. I gagged her with another piece of rope. We carried her about three miles down a path, and stopped to rest.We set her down in a clearing. I removed the gag.

“Fluttershy, what happened to you?” Dash looked concerned.

“What happened was that you left! You’re supposed to be the most loyal pony in Equestria! But when you left, we felt abandoned! And you!” she said, glaring at me,”How dare you steal Dash from us! The first time was an accident! How in the world did you do it the second time? The entire town went crazy! When Rainbow Dash told us what happened, and how she remembered what happened on Earth, I freaked out and flew away.”

Something clicked in Fluttershy’s brain. She did a double-take. She saw Rainbow Dash, and stared all quiet-like, her pupils all but disappearing. She stayed like that for five minutes.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

She screamed, snapped the ropes binding her, God knows how, and flew off.

Dashie set out to follow her, and I followed on foot. When I found them in the back of the Everfree Forest, they were hugging and crying. Fluttershy saw me, a big smile on her face. She explained what happened.

“I got this irrational fear that my animals were going to betray me, or eat me or something.So I got them to obey me by killing Angel Bunny. When I killed him, all the others, including the bears and lions and things, got scared, so I just went on like that. I don’t really know why, maybe just because I felt nothing wrong with it. But now...”

She trailed off, knowing she would never get Angel back. She sat there in silence for ten minutes, just staring, so I picked her up (she is rather light) and went down to Ponyville, Dash flying above.

Fluttershy looked up at me, tears in her eyes. I almost didn’t catch what she said next.

“Thank you...”
