Flutterssassin

Chapter 5

Another figure was sitting behind a desk, the chair turned around so Fluttershy couldn’t see the pony/stallion’s face.

“Um… Hello?” Fluttershy nervously asked. “I was supposed to see you I guess. Sigma told me.” The figure spun around, it was another stallion.

“Hello!” Fluttershy jumped. He had a booming voice. “Oops, didn’t mean to startle you!”

“Ha ha, it’s alright…” Fluttershy forced a laugh.

“As you know, I’m the President of the E.A.A.”

“Of course, go on.”

“You also know, as I have heard, that you believe Chrysalis is still roaming free in Equestria?”

“Yes. She told me herself.”

“Do you know where she is?”

“Um… not exactly.” Fluttershy said embarrassingly.

“That’s quite alright!” He exclaimed. “Do you perhaps know if she is working with anyone?”

“I- I don’t know that either.”

“Well then…” He tried his best not to sound disappointed. “What do you know?”

“Um…” Fluttershy whimpered. “I know that my friends are in danger.”

“Danger?”

“Well, Chrysalis told me that she is going to take revenge on all of my friends for messing up her plan.” Fluttershy finally said. She was glad to finally tell someone and have them believe her.

“That’s it?” He replied. Fluttershy had a hurt look on her face. “Not that it isn’t helpful information! Here’s the deal, we can catch Chrysalis by using your friends!”

“What do you mean, exactly? You want to use my friends as bait?” Fluttershy asked questioningly. She was beginning to dislike this stallion.

“No, no, no. We’re going to station high rank members of the E.A.A to protect them from Chrysalis, and that way we can also catch Chrysalis at the same time!” He exclaimed. “It’s like killing two  birds with one stone!” Fluttershy hoped he really didn’t kill two birds.

“Um, okay then. Is that all?”

“That’s about it. However, I would like you to stay here while we’re capturing Chrysalis. That way you won’t get hurt or she won’t try to pry you for information.” That was the last thing he said to her before turning around in his chair once again.

“But wait mister! What about all my pets at my house? Who’s going to feed them? Who’s going to take care of them?” Fluttershy squeaked. He called for a pony outside of his door and told her that her duties now were to take care of Fluttershy’s animals. Fluttershy guessed this was the time to leave, so she just opened up her door and went back into the hallway. Sigma was still there waiting, messing about with some small crossbow.

“Ah, you’re done! Well, come with me and I’ll show you where you will be staying for the next couple months.” He said, putting his small weapon into his pocket.

“M- Months!?” Fluttershy yelled. “How long is this going to take!?”

“Hopefully just a few months, but what did you expect? It won’t be easy catching her. She’s magical, she can fly, and she can disguise herself!”

He’s got a point there… Fluttershy thought. She sighed and just followed him down the hallway once more. He took a left into a door labeled GUEST ROOMS.

“Here is the key to your room. Your room is the last door on the right.” It reminded her of a hotel. Maybe this place wouldn’t be so bad. She took the key and Sigma turned around walked back to the main hallway. She swear she could see him take the crossbow and start fiddling around with it again.

Inside her temporary living place was a basic little room with a bed, a dresser, and a bedside table. Miraculously, all of her clothes and her personal belongings were already there. She checked out everything about the room; the closet, the bathroom, the kitchen, it was all very drab. She would have to make it her own. She also had to go tell her friends about what was going on, as they would be very worried. She walked out of the room and was immediately stopped by a pony who appeared to be guarding her door.

“And where do you think you’re going?” She was very intimidating.

“Well, um, I was just going to go to tell my friends where I am so they aren’t worry about me.” Fluttershy tried her best to stand up to her.

“I have orders, right here.” She showed Fluttershy a note. “I’m not supposed to let you go without permission from the boss.” Fluttershy sighed again.

“Well, am I allowed to leave my room?”

“Yeah, that’s ok. Just don’t bother anyone.” The pony rolled her eyes at Fluttershy. Fluttershy ignored her and just walked off; back into the main hall. She wanted to see what went on in this place, she walked down the hall a couple times, just to think. She kept seeing one door that piqued her interest; it was labeled ASSASIN BASIC TRAINING.

***

Fluttershy walked in, interested. She had nothing better to do so she just watched for a while; ponies and stallion's were practicing martial arts, some were taking turns at an agility course, and others were just simply being taught by mentors. This went on for a while, and Fluttershy was starting to get hungry. She turned around to leave, only to be blocked by another pony.

“Oh, um... excuse me. I was just leaving.” Fluttershy said.

“What were you doing here anyway?” The pony questioned. “You sure don't look like you were training. This is the training room, after all.”

“Well, I was just watching, I have nothing else to do.” Fluttershy answered. Fluttershy just wanted to go eat something, but this pony kept on asking questions. “Can I please just go?”

“Fine, whatever.” The pony rolled her eyes.

` “Violet, stop harassing other ponies.” It was Sigma again. It seemed he was the only nice one around here. “She hasn't done anything wrong.”

“Um, it's okay, really.” Fluttershy replied. “Well, I'm just going to go eat.”

“Here, let me show you where the cafeteria is.” Sigma went forward and Fluttershy had no other choice but to follow him. Inside she was grateful for him stepping in. He lead her down the main hall once again and they went into another room.

“Here's the cafeteria. Meal's are free, and you get three meals a day. Any extra food you want, you will have to pay for it.” Sigma informed her.

“Thanks.” Fluttershy said shyly. Sigma was a nice stallion. She noticed the line and walked over to it. The line wasn't too long, and while she waited she tried to see what there was to eat.

“Next in line.” A mare called.

“What is there to eat?” Fluttershy asked.

“We have lettuce sandwich's with either hay fries or apple slices.”

“I'll have the apple slices than.” The cafeteria mare gave her a lettuce sandwich and apple slices, and Fluttershy went to go find somewhere to sit. Sigma motioned for Fluttershy to come sit down with him. Fluttershy walked over to his table and sat down next to him. All of his friends were there too, unfortunatly including the pony who had been messing with her earlier.

“Sweet Celestia, why does she have to sit here?” Violet said annoyingly.

“Violet, shut up.” One of the other stallions at the table said. “What's your problem with her, anyway?” Fluttershy tried to ignore the conversation as she quietly nibbled on her sandwich.

“What's your name?” The same stallion asked.

“Um... my name is Fluttershy...” Flutershy quietly said.

“Well, my name is Gumball.” He replied. “It's nice to meet you!”

“It's nice to meet you.” Violet mocked.

“Violet, what the hell is your problem today?” Sigma angrily said. “If you have a problem, just say it!”
