Godzilla: The Void
Fluttershy's New Friend
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Now, now Angel, I know you don't like salads, but it's all I have," a yellow mare said amid her critter friends. Fluttershy was attempting to get her pet bunny, Angel, to eat quite a magnificent salad she had prepped up for him, but he simply refused! The stress was giving her several throbbing headaches. She thought about lying down for a few minutes, but an excellent idea came to her head.
"Ok Angel, you asked for it," she said. Then at that moment, Fluttershy deployed her most effective weapon, the stare. She started opening her eyes to their widest extent, then started staring. All the other animals in the cottage stayed back, for they knew the power of the stare. Angel felt as is those horrible, horrible eyes were drilling into his head, the adorableness overwhelming him. The blue irises felt as if they came straight from the depths of Tartarus.
Oh, dear Celestia, he thought,make it end! Finally he gave into the eyes, and started to eat. It wasn't half bad.
"Now I'm going to go for a walk outside, Angel," Fluttershy said,"Have it all finished when i come back, ok?" Angel nodded in reply. She opened the door, and walked outside to start her trek towards Ponyville. As soon as he heard her close the door, Angel grabbed the salad and cleaned the entire bowl in 3 seconds flat.
Fluttershy was singing the whole way to the small settlement, which brought out many of the other woodland creatures. As she sang, they hopped, frolicked, or hobbled beside her, admiring the talent she had. Halfway to Ponyville, a squirrel let out a cry of alarm and disappeared into the trees far behind her. Then all the other tree dwellers retreated to their sanctuaries, leaving earth bound animals to accompany Fluttershy. She hadn't noticed that half the animals had left until she turned around, and saw an empty space where they had been.
"Huh?" she exclaimed. She heard the rustling of many branches and turned around once more. All the other animals had left. She was now confused at why they abandoned her. Did she smell? She had washed thoroughly the night before, she remembered that. So...what was scaring them away? A snap of a twig answered her question. The source of the sound came directly from the front of the path. Frightened, curiosity dragged her forward to the location and forced her to stay there.
"H-hello?" she called out,"Is anypony there?" Another rustling of branches, then a white dot appeared out of nowhere.
"Gah!" The dot disappeared for a fraction of a second then reappeared, with the smallest hint of frailness in it.
It's an eye, Fluttershy thought. The eye stared back at her, boring deep into her mind. It felt like it was reaping her soul.
What's this?, a booming voice called out, obviously female. The voice echoed through Fluttershy's head and ears, as if the creature was inserting herself into her thoughts. The earth shook beneath Fluttershy, then a massive, thick vine at least 20 feet long unearthed itself and, before she could run away, wrapped itself around Fluttershy. The green tendril put pressure on the appendage, squeezing the air out of the pegasus's lungs.
Who and what are you?! How did I get here?!, the voice screamed. Fluttershy managed to let in a breath of air when the creature spoke and loosened her grip.
"Err...um...uh...,"was all she could mutter out. The blank eyes glared back into the back of her skull, and after what seemed like an eternity, spoke to her.
I am not from your world, but I am just guessing that is the case. Now, do you intend to challenge me, or stand down?! Fluttershy gulped.
"I don't wish t-to fight, sorry if I,um, startled you," she squeaked. The massive eyes slowly opened in sympathy. Fluttershy let out a weak grin before the vines let go and dropped her to the ground.
"Thank you. My name is Fluttershy, and I live at that town over there, called Ponyville."
Ponyville? Poor thing, she's lost her mind, the creature thought to herself. My name is Biolantte. A rose, if you may add. She blinked and opened her maw. The dagger-like teeth glistened in the sunlight.
Take me there. I want to see this place for myself. She snarled to add more frightening tone. Fluttershy, not wanting to anger this "Biolantte" quickly led her in the direction of her friends.
