It was a late spring afternoon. The foals had just gotten dismissed from school for the weekend, and Fluttershy was very busy in her cottage. "Oh, uhm...You're not supposed to...Eep!" said a frustrated Fluttershy, with her animals oddly out of control. Discord walked into the room.
"Now what seems to be the matter, Fluttershy?" he questioned "Your animals don't seem too comfortable with this situation."
Fluttershy explained, "I don't know..! They just started behaving like this on Wednesday...Oh, I hope they're alright!". Discord had nothing to say, he was absolutely speechless.
Then a confused Discord broke the silence. "Have you tried your stare on them? That always works on me!"
"Yes, I have. But it doesn't seem to be working anymore. Oh, it's hopeless!" answered Fluttershy with a worried expression. The following Thursday, Fluttershy decided to ask Twilight Sparkle for assistance with her animal problem.
"I have never seen anything like this before! Especially with you, the number-one animal caretaker!" Twilight exclaimed.
"I can't believe it either, Twilight. But what should I do?! Please help me! Please!!" Fluttershy pleaded, her eyes welling up with tears.
Twilight nervously cleared her throat. "Well, uhm, you see, Fluttershy...My schedule is pretty loaded until August...And I-"
Fluttershy interrupted. "Oh, well..I guess I could" -Fluttershy wiped her tears- "find somepony else.." Fluttershy had burst into tears and ran out of the library.
