Savior

Later

So much. So much has transpired. You're still sitting on Fluttershy's bed. The room has actually started to become rather dull because of the hours of looking at it. Nonetheless, You take this chance to reminisce on everything.

Ok, first, I woke up in the middle of nowhere. Not so terrifying. NEXT, A purple equine saves me from death. Not so bad either. Then- WAIT! You realize you had totally forgotten about Twilight and your promise to her. You have no idea where you actually are. To make it worse, she's probably worried sick about you. Or worse, she's going to kill you. Before You pass out again from stress, you take a breath and think positive. Now, I wasn't remotely far from Ponyville, and the Rainbow pegasus, who I'm guessing was the reason for me being here, was following me ever since I had left the library. This means I'm probably still in Ponyville. You mentally sigh and pat yourself on the back for making note of your location. You continue you thinking train. That would also mean she's friends with Twilight. And, if she brought me to Fluttershy . . . that would suggest she's friends with her too.. You scrunch your index finger on your forehead as you piece all this information together.

EUREKA! You jump up. That means that Fluttershy is also friends with Twilight. Plus, those two pegasi are probably two of the five friends you were to find that day. You finish you brainstorm with a wide grin.  As you bask in your mental victory, your eyes unintentionally glance toward the clock. 5:50. Fluttershy has been gone for at least thirty minutes (counting your thinking episode). You straighten your jacket as you decide to head down the wooden stairs to find her. You look around the cozy abode. There were critters here and there that would scurry away from you. Typical. You head out the front door not wanting to waste anymore daylight to feel the cool breeze gust against your face. Another breezy day. You stop to think again.

Where would a pegasus be at this time? You ask yourself as you stand on the bridge that is keeping you above the small brook near Fluttershy's house. You don't know your way around town, so wandering might not be the brightest of ideas. Before you come up with more random questions that probably won't be answered, the bunny that kept giving you that cute but mean glare tapped the back of you calf. You turn around and give it a quizzical look. It sighs at your obliviousness and starts hopping down the path. I guess it wanted me to follow it, You shrug as you really have no other choice but to follow its trail.

Small time skip

You groan. This rabbit has been dragging for about twenty minutes through the same damn meadow you had been laid out on earlier that day. The sun has already started to set. "Okay, where are we going?" You ask grumpily as you tower of the small creature. It turns and gives you a look that pretty much said you no right asking that question. Just who does it think it is? You suck it up and keep trudging. Then you stop. You are going to just about blow you top over this stupid rabbit's actions, but then it rolls its eyes and point up.

"Oh! Thank you for bringing him, Angel!" You look up to see Fluttershy calling from a giant cloud. I mean a BIG cloud. It was more like a mansion then anything, but regardless you can't stop your jaw from dropping at the sight of it. How could something this beautiful be made? You have absolutely no idea. You shake yourself from your daze as the yellow mare glides down to you.

"H-Hi, {f/n}. I hope you don't mind, but I'm going to try and bring you to Rainbow's house to talk..." She trails off in a fit of shyness. You shrug and say your cool with it. Then you realize she meant up there to talk. You were never really afraid of heights, but the thought of actually falling terrified you. And also, a cloud? How would you stand up there? You hope that because you're in a different world, you would be able to stand up there. Then, there's Fluttershy. You ask her if she's strong enough to lift you. You weren't sure you were light enough to be picked up by the meek little pony. She said 'yes', but it didn't sound too confident. C'mon. When is anything she says completely confident. You go off of that philosophy and allow her to try and lift you.

After a terrifying three minutes of hoping not to be dropped like a sack of bricks, you make it. Fluttershy isn't fairing any better as she is panting heavily. She manages to keep a smile though. How does she do it? Anyway, you are more surprised that you are standing on a FREAKING CLOUD! Fluttershy quickly briefs you that only pegasi can stand on clouds, but she didn't know about humans. You assumed her friend pressured her but brushed it off. You both walk into the structure.

"What took you so long?" You see the rainbow pony as irritated as ever. You go to explain your predicament before she has you against one of the walls questioning you like a criminal.  You definitely weren't friends yet."SO, What did you do to Twilight? Why were you heading for MY house?  Who are you- better question is WHAT are you? What are you doing here? W-" Her barrage of questions are cut short by a now rather intimidating yellow pony.

"Rainbow Dash. We need to talk. Now," She seethed through her now clenched teeth. You are terrified. Lucky she wasn't looking at you. But, Rainbow seemed unaffected. Instead, it seemed to piss her off even further. She lets you go. They both hover over to the kitchen while still trying to kill each other with looks. You try to keep yourself composed, but this is a little much for you.

Did I cause this? What does Rainbow have against me? And, why do they keep going at each other like that. These questions swarm in you head as you continue to sit in the same corner Dash had you up against. After a couple minutes of discussing you couldn't hear from the other room, Rainbow comes back to you. She's looking down almost guiltily. You figure the "talk" was used against her. Y'know, the talk that your parents give you in the bathroom after you did something wrong in public. The one that turns you into the perfect child for the rest of the time because of the whispered threats or just pure anger in their voices. That's what happened here. You step back a little as she slowly mopes toward you.

"Look, I'm not gonna kill you alright?" The blue mare states plainly. You mentally sigh. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have treated you like a monster, even if you look like one." Gee, thanks. "Anyway, the name's Rainbow Dash.," She said with a hoof to her chest. You introduce yourself and as hard as it was, you forgive her. "I know we kind of got off on the wrong hoof there, but do you want to y'know... start over?" You think for a minute.

And that's what you did.

1 hour later

"Wow, that must've been rough." You had decided to answer all you could to Rainbow about your arrival to Equestria and what else that hadn't been knocked out of your memory. You had just finished up you horrible experience about your arrival a couple days ago. You shrug at her comment. You were used to fainting, so it wasn't that big of a surprise. It also came to you how cool Rainbow could be once you got to know her. Sure, she was a little brash and cocky, but overall she cared about her friends no matter what. You then asked the pegasus about Fluttershy's location. "Oh, her . . ." She looked down and sighed. " . . . Fluttershy went home. She said something about her animals, but I know it's because she's mad at me." You can't really tell if she's mad or not about it until her next words come out next words come out.

"I just don't know why. I mean, I said sorry. I meant it too." Dash looks to you with her magenta eyes. They look a little watery. "You believe me . . . right?" You aren't sure what to say at this point. You think back to Fluttershy. Did Dash really do something so bad to have her storm off? You then look at Rainbow Dash. She seems really sincere.

You make your decision. "Of course I believe in you. I think that if we could both tell Fluttershy about how you feel, she wouldn't feel so stressed." That sets her off.

"Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" She pulls into a quick but rib-crushing hug. She sees your problem and lets you down. You sigh and chuckle at her reaction. She laughs right back and allows you to stay at her place for the night. "You can stay with me for the night," Dash says as she guides you to the guest room. She must've saw you uneasiness and reassured you. "Don't worry; I'll give Twilight the heads up tomorrow and we can get things sorted out." You nod and give her a half smile as she walks away to get some shut-eye. You walk over to the bed and think again.

I can't believe I betrayed Fluttershy like that. After all she did for me... You then feel a feeling you hadn't felt in a while; Confidence. No, I did the right thing. Rainbow Dash is innocent. I just . . . know it. Then again, I don't know all of the backstory behind their fights. I know I wasn't the only cause for this. You twiddle with the collar of your folded up jacket on the nightstand as you continue. I'm probably the spark of their emotional gunpowder keg. You sigh as you get up and walk to the window. The stars are burning brightly. The view is amazing. Hopefully, tomorrow will bring me some answers. You walk back to the bed and let Darkness welcome you back.
