"Be Very, Very Quiet... Otherwise We Might Spook Him"

"Fluttershy, why are you dressed like that?" Twilight asked her friend.

"W- Well... Every year, I normally go out into the wilds to find my turkey friends and ask them what they like to do on Thanksgiving. This year, I thought I'd dress up and see what they thought about it," she replied with a small smile. "You don't think it's too much, do you?"

Twilight looked over her friend's strange way of dressing. She had a large hat that was brown and red and a suit that matched in color. She held a small stick in between one of her wings that was strangely pointed at one of the ends and strangely flat at the other. "You look great Fluttershy, but what's with the stick?"

"Oh this?" she asked back, adjusting her wing to move the stick slightly. "I thought it would be a long walk, so I decided to take this with me."

"But... can't you just fly?"

"Well... I could, but last time I did, I couldn't find his home. I don't want the same to happen again."

"Alright, just one last question Fluttershy."

"Y- Yes?"

"Are you going alone into the wilds? Isn't it dangerous out there?"

"Well... Yes, it is dangerous, but I'm not going alone." As she said that, Angel Bunny hopped from the floor behind her and onto Fluttershy's back. "I'm taking Angel Bunny with me."

"Really?" Twilight deadpanned. "You're taking the rabbit?"

"He's not just a rabbit!" Fluttershy shot back angrily before shrinking back. "I- I'm sorry... Please don't hate me..."

"Fluttershy... It's not you who should be sorry, it's me. I shouldn't have said that. I was just surprised your taking him instead of one of your friends."

"Angel Bunny is my friend, and I take him every year. He's really good at navigating, and I wouldn't have come home one day without him."

Twilight looked between the rabbit, who seemed to be smiling at her with a look that looked devious. "Alright..." she finally said. "If you're so sure, I won't stop you."

"Bye Twilight," Fluttershy said, walking off and waving back at her. "Tell everypony that looks for me where I've gone!"

"You got it!" Twilight replied as she watched her friend walk over the hill and out of sight.

As Fluttershy neared Mr. Turkey's house, she slowed down. "Oh... I hope I'm not too late..." she said quietly. Angel Bunny thumped a foot on her back. "What is it?"

Angel Bunny hopped down and began pushing gently on her leg, trying to move her forward. "You're saying that I shouldn't be afraid and just move on?" The bunny nodded quickly, hopping back onto her back. "You're right! I shouldn't be worried that I'm late. I should just move forward! Surely if I am late, Mr. Turkey will forgive me."

She walked up to Mr. Turkey's home, only to see him coming out of there, running.

"Mr. Turkey?" Fluttershy asked, beginning to give chase after him. She nearly caught up to him when she began running faster.

"Gobble gobble!"

"Mr. Turkey! What's wrong?"

But Mr. Turkey was already gone.

"Oh... This isn't good Angel Bunny," Fluttershy as she paced circles around him. "How can we spend Thanksgiving with Mr. Turkey is he's run away?"

The bunny hopped in front of her, halting her movements. "What is it?" The bunny pointed off toward the woods where Mr. Turkey vanished. "You want me to go after him?"

The bunny nodded, hopping onto her back and pointing in the direction Mr. Turkey went. "Um... Alright. If you're so sure Angel."

And then the two of them left to find Mr. Turkey.

Fluttershy walked slowly though the dark, thick woods. Each turn seemed to repeat itself, and the pony with the rabbit on her back soon became lost.

"I don't like this Angel..." Fluttershy said quietly, jumping at every noise that leapt out of the dark at them. "I wonder what could have spooked Mr. Turkey. He's never been that scared before in his life!"

Angel was scared too. He hung onto Fluttershy's mane as tight as he could. He glanced around the woods, cowering gently on the yellow pony's back.

"Remember Angel, be very, very quiet... Otherwise, we might spook him."

Then the familiar sound filled the two's ears. "Mr. Turkey!" Fluttershy said excitedly as she ran in the direction of the sound. Rounding a tree, she found a cowering Mr. Turkey. "Mr. Turkey, what's wrong?"

"Gobble gobble!" I was waiting for you to come Fluttershy, but when the Mrs. saw you coming, she insisted that you were someone else coming for me and I got scared.

"Oh... There's no reason to be scared of me," Fluttershy said quietly. "I'm completely harmless. I wouldn't hurt one of my animal friends."

Mr. Turkey nodded in agreement. "Come on Mr. Turkey. Let's go back to your place to spend Thanksgiving together."

As Fluttershy neared home, she sighed happily. "My Angel. Isn't it nice to spend the day, giving thanks to what you're thankful for?"

Angel Bunny was snoring happily on Fluttershy's back, his stomach very full from all the carrots he was thankful to have on this day.

It was his favorite holiday too.

Author's Note

Happy Thanksgiving!:twilightsmile:

This isn't the story I was saying I was working on a few days ago. This is just something I came up with for Thanksgiving. Also, yes, I could have gone further with this, but I wanted to make it short for Thanksgiving.

Also... If you think about it, this story sounds like it was meant to be read to children.
