These last few days have been odd. Truly, odd. I'm so used to things happening, big things, but I got nothing. No new people or anything. Except Derpy. She kept flying into Fluttershy's window. I had no clue why, just that she did it. It was odd, to think about it in such a way. Pegasi were supposed to be coordinated and graceful creatures, so why couldn't she be like one of the---

BANG!!!

The house shook, and I jumped up, startled, thinking it may have been attacked. I quickly pulled out the swords, just to have Fluttershy hugging me tightly, terrified evidently, much worse than I was. "Fluttershy, it's okay, please, get off for a little while, okay?" I said, trying to reassure her that things would be okay. "But I'm scared... I was just waking up, and heard that bang..." She replied, and I knew I couldn't get her off easily.

I spun around quickly and threw her into a piggyback position. If I was gonna get anywhere with her latched to me, I would have to carry her. That much was obvious. "Come on, Fluttershy." I said reassuringly, and walked out to look around and see what the crash was. I looked around the house and found what it was behind the small cottage. It was a grayish blue pony--- One I've seen before. Derpy Hooves...

"Derpy, must you always hit the house? At least you could have hit a tree or something.... Sheesh. Try to go for a light landing. Don't wanna break anything. So how are you doing, Derpy?"

"Ooooh... I'm doing okay.... Hey, why is Fluttershy on your back? Silly Blaine, you two shouldn't be having kids yet!"

I was fried. That comment there... Wow. I couldn't believe she actually said that. That was... awkward, don't you think? Me and Fluttershy were both blushing heavily, embarrassed as hell. Seriously, I just---

SNAP! I heard something break, a loud shriek, and I ran over to Derpy. I wanted to make sure she was okay. She didn't sound okay.
