Chapter 2

Fluttershy woke up to a gentle snoring. She wasn't sure how though because it was so quiet. Assuming it was one of her animal friends she let it go. She looked out the window and was shocked to see it was night time already. She felt like she had just gone to sleep. Fluttershy heard a deep grumbling noise. She looked around for the source and was embarrassed to when she realized it was her stomach. She got up out of her warm spot on the couch and went to the kitchen. What she saw nearly made her faint.

There laying on the counter was a small breezie. She had a green coat and pink mane. Tucked behind her ear was a small blue jay feather. The little breezie was laying in a jumbled heap on the counter. Fluttershy knew she was just sleeping by the rise and fall of her little chest.

"Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!" Fluttershy exclaimed "This little one was left behind! Oh but it's too late to get her back to her friends. What will I do? What can I do!?!" Fluttershy put her hooves on her head and lay on the counter in a moment of panic.

all this racket had woken up Feathermane who was now sitting up and rubbing the sleepiness out of her eyes. She looked over to see Fluttershy panicking. Oops. She had left herself out in plain sight and was unlucky enough to be found. "Hey, Miss Fluttershy?" she asked.

"Huh, oh your awake. I-I'm sorry." Fluttershy stuttered "I must of forgotten you when taking everypony else to your town. And- wait a minute. I thought only Seabreeze was the only one who could speak the pony language."

"Were not all as stupid as he thinks." Feathermane replied crossly.

"Oh my Seabreeze doesn't actually think that. He was just worried about not making it home on time." Fluttershy said earnestly.

"Humph, it sure didn't seem that way to me." puffed Feathermane.

Fluttershy sighed the gently picked up Feathermane. "Now what will we do with you?" she asked herself.

"I don't want to go back." Feathermane said quietly.

Fluttershy heard this remark and asked "Why not little one?"

Feathermane looked uncomfortable as she said "Because I like it here more."

Fluttershy had a look of understanding as she put Feathermane gently down on the counter. "I see little one. I won't ask anymore questions unless you want me too."

Feathermane furrowed her brow and said "What's up with little one? I have a name you know."

"Oh my, I'm sorry if I offended you but I'm afraid I don't know your name." Fluttershy apologised.

"It's Feathermane." Feathermane stated bluntly. She floated down to the ground and trotted to the living room.

Fluttershy followed her and sat down on the couch. "What will you do now?" she asked genuinely concerned.

"I don't know..." Feathermane admitted. There was a long awkward silence broken by the door slamming loudly.

"Eep!" Fluttershy jumped up and hit her head on the ceiling.

"Fluttershy? Yall ok over there?" AppleJack asked. AppleJack walked over to Fluttershy who was clinging onto the rafters. She grabbed onto her long pink tail and pulled her onto the couch with a thud.

"Oh hello there Applejack." Fluttershy said sheepishly.

"Fluttershy y'all need ta try to relax now and then. After all were all ya friends so there no need to be so nervous." AppleJack glanced around the room her gaze stopping at Feathermane who was sitting on the floor. "What in tarnation!" She exclaimed "Fluttershy ah thought we had gotten dem breezies all home. Whats this one still doing here?"

"Well um, this one hid in my home. She doesn't want to go back." Fluttershy exclaimed.

"Well it's too late anyways but still..." AppleJack said staring hard at Feathermane. Feathermane squirmed under her cold stare. She bowed her head down somewhat ashamed. It was just dawning on her that if she changed her mind she would have to wait a whole year for the portal to open again.

"I'm sorry." she sniffed "I just wanted to explore this world. Mine is so boring."

"Shucks, now don't y'all go crying. Ya didn't mean ta make anypony mad." AppleJack said taking a step towards Feathermane. "Still ah should probably tell Twilight bout ya. She might know what ta do. But I should probably go tell er in the morning."

"Oh yes! That reminds me, how come you're here in the middle of the night?" Fluttershy questioned.

"Ah wanted ta see how y'all settling down. After all we did just have a pretty eventful day." AppleJack said.

"Oh ya!" exclaimed Feathermane "What did happen after the other breezies left?"

AppleJack and Fluttershy settled down to tell her what had happened that afternoon. AppleJack agreed to spend the night as it was late and dangerous for anypony to be out and alone. Fluttershy had scolded AppleJack for even coming here this late.

After some stories and s'mores the three settled down for some sleep, even if it would only be for a few hours.

Chapter 3

Chapter 3

After saying farewell AppleJack stepped out the door. She took a few steps when she realized that she had just spoken to a breezie. AppleJack wasn't sure if it was a side effect of Twilight's spell or if Feathermane could just speak the pony language but it wasn't to important. She had to get to Twilight's place and tell her of Feathermane.

On the way to the library AppleJack came across the cutie mark crusaders. Scootaloo informed her they were trying to get printmaking cutie marks. AppleJack saw ink on both the paper and stamps as well as on her sister and her friends. Chuckling to herself AppleJack continued to the library.

Twilight was trying frantically to keep a watch on the kettle as it brewed tea and straighten up the library. It seemed whenever she would put away a book two more would appear in little piles all over. Spike was over at Rarity's helping her make new dresses so Twilight was doing his daily chores for him. As she was sweeping up the floor with her magic and pouring herself a cup of tea she heard a knocking. She set down the broom and went to the door. AppleJack was standing on the top step and she let her inside.

"So AppleJack, what brings you here?" she asked.

"Well Twilight, Fluttershys in a bit of a pickle." AppleJack explained the situation, not leaving out a single detail. Twilight poured another cup of tea and handed it to her.
"I see." Twilight replied solemnly "After the breezies left I went to study them a bit. Turns out there is a spell that I can cast to force open the portal. Unfortunately only breezies can enter and leave the portal. That means we won't be able to tag along. Another thing is that the breezies must enter the portal willingly and it sounds like Feathermane doesn't want to go back."

"Hmm, well y'all think we could convince her ta go back?" AppleJack asked, pondering this new aspect.

"No. I think that this has to be done by herself, like you when you went to Manehatten and got your cutie mark." Twilight said pouring herself another cup of tea.

"Maybe, but ah think she need ta make up her darn mind!" AppleJack exclaimed stamping her hoof down on the table. She was lucky none of the tea spelt.

"AppleJack maybe you should try to calm down." Twilight said hoping to stop the rampage before it got bad. "You don't usually get this upset about this so why are you now?"

Applejack huffed then sat back down. 'Sorry Twi. Ah don't know what happened back there. It's just kinda weird to see another pony in my situation from all them years ago."
Twilight nodded her head. "I suppose so. It is kinda personal after all, but still I think we shouldn't interfere. Let's just see what happens. Now let's go tell them about the spell but don't try to change Feathermane's mind for her, okay?" Twilight wrote a quick note to Spike telling him that she was going to Fluttershy's cottage if he got home early.

Her and AppleJack stepped outside and saw Pinkie Pie bouncing up and down on the first step. "Hiya guys! My Pinkie Sense told me something was happening. Something really really important! So I came here so you could tell me. Oh, is it a surprise? I love surprises! Oh! Maybe it's a party! I absolutely LOVE parties!"

"PINKIE!" Twilight shouted hoping to stop the pink pony before she got any further. "Sorry for yelling but me and AppleJack were heading to Fluttershy's and if you come with we'll fill you in on the way."

"Oh it's okay Twilight. If I were you I'd probably yell at myself too! Also of course I'll come with. After all when my Pinkie Sense senses something it's bound to be good." Pinkie Pie responded bounding along.

The trio had just reached their destination when they had finished their tale. Twilight knocked on the door and Fluttershy welcomed them in. She welcomed her friends then asked if they wanted anything to drink. Twilight and AppleJack both respectively declined but Pinkie asked for some juice. When Fluttershy returned with a glass of apple juice Pinkie gulped it down then sat down hard on the ground.

"So everypony, I assume AppleJack has explained the situation." Fluttershy said.

"Yup a doodle rooni!" Pinkie Pie chirped "Anyways where is the little breezie? If she wants I'll throw her a super duper awesome party!"

"Oh, Feathermane is napping upstairs." Fluttershy told them. She picked up Pinkie's glass to put away then returned a moment later.

"Fluttershy? Twilight here found a spell that send Feathermane back to her village if she wants." AppleJack nodded to Twilight who then explained the details once more.

Fluttershy listened carefully then said "Well, it's up to Feathermane but I think that it's a wonderful idea. Thank you Twilight."

"What's up to me again?" said a curious voice. The four ponies looked over and saw the source floating down the stairs. Feathermane flew over and landed on Fluttershy's head. She let out a big yawn then looked the new ponies up and down. "So who are these ponies again? I already know that orange one. AppleJack right?"

Fluttershy told her about the spell and the new ponies. Feathermane stood quiet for a few minutes then said slowly "I thought about this all last night and realized I kinda do miss home. If you don't mind I'll stay here for awhile then go home after learning a bit."

"That's perfectly fine with me." Fluttershy said solemnly. "You can take as long as you need. I'll be right here for you and Twilight will cast the spell whenever you want." Feathermane nodded her head in thanks then everypony went about their normal activities. Everything was okay now, so why did Feathermane feel weird.

"Good night Feathermane." Fluttershy said "In the morning how about we get you to a school so you can learn there for a day or two." Feathermane nodded once more then Fluttershy turned out the lights and soon fell asleep.

Chapter 4

Feathermane slowly walked down the empty street of her old home. Everypony was gone and she didn't know what to do. It was as if the town was haunted. The lights if not burnt out flickered on and off and not a single light could be seen inside one of the many homes that lined the road. Feathermane's house was just up ahead. Unlike every other building hers was lit up. Every light appeared to be on. Feathermane saw the door was slightly ajar. She nudged it further open then stepped inside.

Once inside she took a quick look around. She saw a few wilted flowers in old rusty pots. They sat in the sunless windows. She received these as a gift from PetalDress back when she lived here. Feathermane saw nothing to interesting as she trotted through her home. It seemed to have a gloomy atmosphere and something seemed off. She shook her head. She was probably imagining it but it felt like someone was watching her. She turned quickly but saw no one. Feathermane stepped cautiously out the door, shutting it as she left. She went back down the street to the old flower shop where she had once worked. The door was locked but there was a gaping hole in the window. Feathermane flew inside then turned on the lights.

Inside she saw wilted plants lining the shelves. The normal flowers that had once filled the shop were replaced with vines and thorns. They tangled through every gap in the old wooden shelves. Somepony must have replaced them but who? Feathermane saw a torn note on the checkout counter. She reached out for it and read.

Shop Closed for a while. Will be back soon.

Feathermane decided to go try find somepony. She gingerly stepped out the window then trotted down the streets. She could hear her hooves on the cold stone. Feathermane came upon her friend PetalDress's house. Like her home the door was open but the lights were off. She went inside and up the stairs. What she saw scared her but she couldn't look away. PetalDress was sitting propped up on her bed. She was coughing and had red splotches on her face. She had the symptoms of a horrible disease that had once swept a neighboring village to the west. The entire population had died and nothing has been found to stop it.

Feathermane gasped as she realized what had happened. She ran out of the home and kept running for about ten minutes through the streets. She didn't have a destination, she was just running to try to get the horrible scene out of her mind. She tripped and fell on her face. She heard a voice ask if she was okay then a blue hoof was shoved in her face. Feathermane accepted it then saw a blue pony with a flowing mane in front of her. She wasn't sure how the pony was here because a normal sized pony wouldn't fit. Perhaps a shrinking spell or something. Feathermane did see a horn on the pony but what confused her was the wings. The only pony she knew with wings and a horn was Twilight.

"Who are you?" Feathermane asked with a quivering voice.

"We are Princess Luna. We have come to aid thee in thy dream." The mare said with a confident voice. "We noticed a disturbance in the dreamscape and came to help!"

"Wait dream?" Feathermane questioned. She sat down on her rump hoping for an explanation.

"Yes little one." Luna replied "This is your dream. We am the princess of the night. We explore ponies dreams and help resolve nightmares."

"Wait. So your saying that I'm dreaming and PetalDress wasn't real?" Feathermane asked "Does that mean she's okay?"

"Yes small breezie, your friend is all right and nopony is hurt." Luna responded "This dream has a meaning. That meaning is up to you to find but we are certain you will figure it out."

"I think I understand what it is."Feathermane replied "But how do I escape this dream? It's kinda scarring me and I wish to wake up please."

"Of course Feathermane." Luna said. Feathermane wasn't sure how she knew her name but then again she was inside of her dream. "Lay down and we will use our magic to release you from the dreamscape." Feathermane obeyed, laying down she closed her eyes and relaxed. Luna placed her horn on her forehead and it started to glow. Feathermane felt herself grow tired and she drifted into darkness.

Chapter 5

Feathermane awoke in a cold sweat. She shook her head trying to figure out what had just happened. Luna had visited her in her dream and told her that the nightmare had held a message. Feathermane was pretty sure she had figured it out but wasn't sure. She looked over to see Fluttershy was sound asleep. She hadn't woken her up.

Feathermane grabbed the thimble of water Fluttershy had set out for her. She gulped it down to sooth her dry throat. She set down the makeshift cup and flew over to the bathroom. Fluttershy had a little bowl of water for Feathermane set out on the counter. She touched the water with her hooves and found it was cold. Shuttering Feathermane settled down into the little bowl. She wanted to wash away the sweat from that night before she went to the school house.

Fluttershy had promised to let her go for the day to learn a bit of Equestrian history. Feathermane planned to go today then spend the rest of the week to learn firsthand. Then she would go home.

Feathermane scrubbed her mane then stepped out of the bath. She tore of a sheet of toilet paper to use as a towel. She wrapped it around her waist then flew outside the room. Fluttershy was already up and was pouring some milk into a cup. She looked up as Feathermane landed next to her. Smiling she said "I see you took a bath." Feathermane nodded then asked about the school. She was eager to get going but Fluttershy told her it didn't start for an hour. With a disappointed huff Feathermane sat down to eat breakfast.

After Feathermane had finished her morning meal Fluttershy told her they would be going into town for some shopping before school started. Feathermane happily agreed. She loved to see all the cool stuff ponies had for sale in those little stalls. Feathermane jumped onto Fluttershy's head and they were off!

The two creatures entered the market and started towards the food vendors. Fluttershy picked up some lettuce, carrots, celery, and basically anything her animals would eat. After she dropped the bits onto the vendors counter she let Feathermane go look at other stalls. Feathermane saw all sorts of goods being sold. Everything from apples to candies to pots and pans! It was a lot like the old market at her home but it had the brand new effect as it wasn't something she was used to.

After awhile Fluttershy put Feathermane back on her head and trotted from the market. It was time for school. Feathermane was about as excited as a young filly going for the first time would be. She was jumping all around and had a bubbly expression on her face. By the time they had reached the school yard she had settled down. After all she wanted to make a good first impression. She walked through the doors of the school house and entered the small room. She saw desks and a chalk board nothing to impressive. Books lined the many shelves along the walls and a globe could be seen off to the side.

Fluttershy walked up to Miss Cheerlie and explained that Feathermane would be joining the class today. She beckoned for Feathermane to come over to the two so she did. The little breezie flew up to the teacher and landed on her desk. "Hello Feathermane. I understand you will be attending class today." Miss Cheerlie said. Feathermane nodded her head suddenly feeling shy. "You can sit up here on my desk for the day. Just remember it's all right to ask questions. That's how you learn more." She said a smile across her face."It's time to start class so I'll be back soon. I have to go get all the fillies and colts from the playground." Miss Cheerlie stepped out a back door and came back a few seconds later with all the kids.

"All right Feathermane, I'll come get you when schools over. Have fun!" Fluttershy said. She stepped out the doors leaving Feathermane on the desk. All the children sat down in the many desks scattered across the room.

"Okay class, today we have a guest. I hope you will treat them with utmost respect because they are here to learn, just like all of you!" Miss Cheerlie stepped to the side revealing Feathermane. "This is Feathermane. She's a breezie. I believe you all remember the breezie migration about a week ago, right?" The class nodded then said their welcomes. Feathermane shyly looked away then perked up when Miss Cheerlie said it was time for spelling. Class was finally starting.

After about an hour of learning to spell various words Miss Cheerlie announced that history would now begin. Feathermane felt like doing a victory dance but held back. History was what she was waiting for the whole time. It would tell her about all sorts of things that had happened in Equestria. Miss Cheerlie went to one of the book shelves and pulled out an old looking book. It was made of leather and the cover was worn. Miss Cheerlie stepped back in front of the room and sat in her desk. "Okay class, today we will be going over the war between the two princess sisters. I'm sure most of you are familiar with this story and for those who aren't this will be a new and exciting aspect for you." Miss Cheerlie opened the book to the first page and began to read. "About a thousand years ago two sisters ruled over the land of Equestria. The elder ruled the sun and the younger had reign over the moon. All seemed peaceful until the younger started to grow jealous of her sister. She thought it was unfair that ponies played and had fun during her sister's sun but locked themselves away during her beautiful night. The younger sister eventually let the hate consume her and she tried to overthrow her sister. But the elder fought back. She used the elements of harmony to banish her beloved sister to the moon. There her sister sat for a long thousand years." Miss Cheerlie closed the book. "Now who knows what happened next?"

A few foals hooves shot into the air and Miss Cheerlie chose Sweetie Bell. "Well my sister and her friends now are like the keepers of the elements. At least that's what Rarity told me. Anyways they said that when Nightmare Moon returned she tried to get rid of her sister again. The elements of harmony stopped her though and she returned to her normal self and her and her sister now rule Equestria together!" Sweetie Bell squeaked. Miss Cheerlie nodded her head. She thought to herself that this little pony was way to smart for her age but didn't let on. After all she didn't like to choose favorites.

"All right, maybe we should start science." Miss Cheerlie said. A few ponies groaned but that was okay. Not much else happened that day, at least not anything important to Feathermane. She was after all considered an adult in her town and knew most of what was being taught. At the end of the day Fluttershy picked her up and they went home. They ate supper and went off to bed. This time however Feathermane fell into a dreamless sleep. She wasn't attacked by the nightmares which was good.

Chapter 6

The next few days Feathermane explored everything she could. She tried all sorts of fun new things and made friends with the townsfolk. Nothing out of the ordinary happened, she just had fun and learned! Rainbow Dash had taught her about all sorts tricks she could do. Feathermane was definitely going to show these off to her friends back at home. Pinkie Pie told her all sorts of weird stories that made no sense but were funny and Rarity had shown her ways to match your jewelry with your outfit. Feathermane didn't let on how bored she was at Rarity's turn to teach because she didn't want to make her feel bad. Instead she pretended to be fascinated but truth be told she probably wasn't going to use this advice back home.

Today was her last day in Ponyville. Feathermane was going to miss this place a lot. These ponies had respected her and became close friends. They made her happy but she also had friends back in her own town who were probably freaking out that she was gone. Feathermane asked if she could be alone these last few hours to say goodbye. The other ponies happily obliged as the knew how important this was. Feathermane flew over to the small lake on the edge of town. She sat for awhile thinking of all the fun things she had done. This was a week she wouldn't forget, that's for sure. Feathermane heard a noise from behind her. She turned around startled and saw the pony from her dreams standing behind her. "Princess Luna!" Feathermane cried. She ran over to the moon ruler and bowed down. The princess prodded her gently with a hoof.

"There is no need for you to be so formal." she giggled helping the small breezie up. She grinned and said "I bet you never thought you'd see us- I mean me here." Feathermane nodded her head in agreement. "I assume you have figured out what the dream meant, correct?"

Feathermane nodded her head once more then said "I think it was telling me that even though it's fun exploring stuff and making new friends I have old friends waiting for me to come back. That's why I was going to leave today. My friends are waiting but they can't wait forever."

Princess Luna gave a small nod of her head "That is all true. But I still cannot figure out why the dreamscape has given you such a harsh way of saying it." She smiled and said "Now, I think you have some friends waiting for you back home." She stood up and started walking back to the town of Ponyville. Feathermane followed close behind. They entered the town and heard many gasps and ponies recognized the lunar princess. Ponies frantically ran around trying to tidy up for the royal visitor. Many apologies were heard along with ponies bowing down. "PONIES OF PONYVILLE! PLEASE DO NOT BE ALARMED, THIS IS A NORMAL VISIT. I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THIS BOWING AND APOLOGISING. NOW STAND UP AND GET BACK TO WHAT YOU WERE DOING." Princess Luna boomed in her royal Canterlot voice. Hearing the commotion Pinkie Pie ran up to the princess. For some reason Pinkie sniffed her before gasping and running off. "I will never understand that pony..." Luna said looking lost for a moment. "Never mind. Feathermane it's time you get home." She took off at a fast pace with the small breezie chasing her.

Luna stopped once she reached a familiar library. She knocked on the wooden door then went in. She didn't even wait for anypony to come get her or welcome her in. "Princess Luna!" A surprised voice said. Twilight walked up behind the lunar princess before bowing down. "What are you doing here?"

"Rise Twilight. This isn't a royal visit. There is no need to be so formal." Luna helped Twilight up then smiled. "Now we came here because if you recall it's time for Feathermane to go home."

Twilight nodded her head then said "I'll go get my friends. They will probably want to be here." She trotted out of the library and left Luna and Feathermane alone. They stood in silence waiting for everypony to return. After about ten minutes of browsing the books Twilight returned with five other ponies. Feathermane flew over to the familiar pink and yellow pegasus and sat of her head.

"Is everypony ready?" Twilight asked. She was answered by the many nodding heads. "It's best if we go to where the portal closed of last time." Twilight beckoned to the door. The group including princess Luna left the town of Ponyville to head to the portal.

During their small trek the group realized somepony was missing. "Pinkie Pie!" Rainbow Dash let out and agitated growl. "That pony was here when we left the library. How did we miss her leave?" She bonked herself with her hoof but didn't do anything too drastic. The ponies decided that it would be best to just keep going. After all they were halfway there and turning back would be useless. The 6 ponies and breezie entered the clearing where the portal would be summoned. What they saw made them all stare with dropped jaws. Pinkie Pie was standing in the clearing with balloons tied to every little thing possible. Streamers hung in the trees and a blanket was laid out with various food items on top.

Pinkie bounced over to the surprised ponies and swooped them over to the blanket. "I decided to make a double party! One for Princess Luna's arrival and another as a goodbye party!" Pinkie bounced super high then landed on the blanket. "LET"S PARTY!!!" Pinkie ran over to a jukebox she had somehow managed to get here. She turned it one then chose a perky song. The music blasted out into the clearing and everypony started to dance. After all why let this party go to waste?

After the excitement went away and everypony had helped pick up it was time for Feathermane to go home. Princess Luna nodded her head to Twilight and watched as she began the spell. Her horn glowed then sparks started to fly. Twilight grunted from her effort and flew back as a particularly large amount of energy flew out of her hitting the stone face that the portal should form on. A bright light flashed temporarily blinding everypony. When it faded a swirling portal was left. Inside you could see the breezie village.

"I guess this is goodbye. Thanks for everything guys. I won't forget you." Feathermane said sadly a tear running down her face. every word she said was true. They all gathered for a group hug.

"Thanks Princess Luna for helping me in my dreams. And thank you too Fluttershy for helping me in Ponyville." Feathermane turned to go to the portal. With a deep breath she entered and vanished into the swirling mass. It closed behind her almost as soon as she went through. She was back home.

Feathermane opened her eyes. She blinked a few times to adjust to the light. She was almost instantly thrown to the ground and she felt a pair of hooves wrap around her. "Feathermane your back!" a loud voice shouted in her ear. She was picked back up of the ground and placed on her hooves.

"PetalDress?" Feathermane asked staring at the breezie in front of her. Her best friend was standing right in front of her. Her friend's eyes were watering and she looked shocked.

"I missed you so much!" she yelled trying to grab her friend for another hug. Feathermane dodged her and instead grabbed her hoof. She pulled her friend behind her all the way to her home. Once they arrived Feathermane sat her friend on a chair before turning the kettle on. "Where were you!" PetalDress shouted more than asked.

"I'm sorry for not telling you but I was afraid you'd tell me to stay. I was staying in Ponyville to learn more about the ponies. I was staying with the nice pony Fluttershy who help us after we crashed." This time it was Feathermane who pulled her friend into a hug. "I'm so sorry."

"You should have told me. I was looking everywhere for you! I panicked when I couldn't find you. It was horrible!" her friend took a long sip of tea.

Feathermane's face fell. "So you were the only one looking for me huh. I figured." Feathermane frowned and looked down at her hooves.

"Actually no." PetalDress said "There was somepony else!" She said in a sing song voice. Feathermane looked up with a concerned look on her face. When PetalDress got like this it was always bad. "Hehe, you know that one dude at the café who's always watching you when we go there?"

Feathermane's face flushed. She knew what her friend meant and she also knew that with what was about to be said would come horrible tauntings. "You don't mean?"

"Yup! He likes you!" PetalDress squealed in a kindergarten like voice. She started teasing her friend as soon as that weird face showed up.

"PetalDress," Feathermane said in a serious tone. "I hate you so much."

The End! I finally got around to finishing this and all I can say about the ending is that I had to! Sorry (not really)! -TimeBlitz ^^

Chapter 1

Feathermane lightly stepped out onto the floor. She had been hiding in a mouse hole in Fluttershy's home. She had heard Fluttershy trying to usher out all of her travel buddies but she wanted to stay. After all nopony would miss her at home. Well, except maybe Petaldress her co-worker. They worked at a small flower shop on the edge of town. Unlike Ponyville florists, they sold not only flowers but dresses and other clothes made of various plants.

Feathermane looked around the cottage. She saw nothing she hadn't seen before. Bird houses, food dishes, and the occasional creature flittering about the home. Feathermane decided to explore. She hadn't gone upstairs yet so with a few flaps of her wings she went to the second floor. Once up she landed on a bedside drawer. On the drawer was a glass of water and a lamp. From on the drawer she could get a good look of the room. Nothing special stood out. She could see a pony sized bed, a few shelves, a dresser, and the drawer she was standing on.

Feathermane heard a noise from downstairs. She quickly flew down to investigate. Fluttershy was closing the door behind her. She set down her saddle bags and lay down on the couch. She cuddled inside a fluffy blue blanket and soon fell asleep. One could hardly blame her as she had had a very eventful day.

Feathermane flew down to the sleeping form. She noticed a blue flower from her village in her mane. She had no idea what had happened after the rest of the breezies had left, only that they didn't notice her absence.

Feathermane flew over to the kitchen hoping to find something to eat. She hadn't been among the many breezies to have had bite sized sandwiches prepared by Fluttershy. Feathermane found a few sandwiches on a small platter. They must have been leftover from earlier that day. After having a few Feathermane settled down on the counter for a nap. There was no changing her mind now, the gate had closed awhile ago.
