Chapter 1 - Arrival

Wat.” That is the first word that came out of my mouth. I was in a strange place, a strange form, and had no idea what was happening.

OK. Rewind, slow down. You’re probably thinking – what is he on about? Well, let me tell you from the beginning.

It was a normal day at my home – Freddy’s Fazbears pizza. I performing on stage with my friends, Bonnie and Chica, while Foxy hid in Pirate Cove. I heard him mumbling to himself again. I wanted to check on him but I was…kind of preoccupied.

“Hey Freddy?” the girl on my lap asked.

“Hmm?”

“What’s it like? Singing in front of people, with Bonnie and Chica?” she asked, big eyes looking up at me. I chuckled.

“Well, it’s…fun. When I sing, it’s like I’m spilling all my emotions out, telling you and everyone listening how I feel. But the best part…” I looked down at her. “The best part is the children. They’re always so happy when we sing and play with them. The way their eyes light up when the curtains come apart. It’s magical…”

“I wanna be just like you, Freddy!” the girl said wrapping her hands around my waist. “But…”

“But?”

“I’m scared. When ever I try to sing in front of people, I freeze up,” she explained.

“I see. You have stage fright. Let me tell you something. When I was younger, I had stage fright as well. I mean, I was built to sing, but I got nervous. I had to sing though, for the children. It was hard though. But then, my big brother noticed. He helped me out. Now I sing all the time, and I love it!” I told her.

“Where’s your brother now?” she asked.

“He’s…around.” I answered vaguely.

“Tara, time to go!” We looked up to see a man and his wife waiting.

“OK, coming Mummy!” the girl hopped off my lap and ran over to them. She turned back to me. “Bye Freddy! Thank you!” She waved. I waved back.

Just a regular day at Freddy Fazbear’s pizza.

Soon the few people left filed out the doors and the pizzeria closed for the evening. After the last workers left the building, we finally got a chance to stretch our legs. “Ah…another successful day at the pizzeria,” I said.

“Ugh, easy for you to say,” Bonnie said, adjusting his bowtie. “Why are the kids so gentle with you, Freddy?” he asked.

“Maybe it’s cuz you're always such a grumpy pants,” Chica giggled.

“Hey, give the boy a break.” I said. “He wasn’t always like this.”

“And I won’t be. I’m just tired. And hungry. And rusty. We haven’t gotten repairs in ages!” Bonnie complained.

“Hey, they're struggling to keep us open as it is. You need to learn to be more careful, Bon,” I reminded him.

“Yeah yeah…”

“At least ye’ll still performin’” A rough voiced chimed in.

“Foxy!” I said, arms wide. “How you doing, buddy? We haven’t seen you in a few days.”

“Tryin’ not ta fall apart,” He said, twisting his hand back on. A tough thing to do with nothing but a hook.

“Hey. They’ll fix you one day,” I said, putting a paw on his shoulder.

“Yer too optimistic, Cap’n…” Foxy said.

“Gah!”

“Bonnie!?!” I exclaimed, turning towards the bunny.

“What’s going on?” He asked, as he was surrounded by a red light.

“Bonnie!” Chica leapt forward and tried to grab his hand, failing as he disappeared right in front of us. Suddenly Chica became enveloped in a purple light as she faded away. “AH!”

“Cap’n!” I turned to see Foxy surrounded by a yellow light as he reached out for me.

“Foxy!” I tried to grab him, but he disappeared before I could get ahold of him. I looked to my own paws to see a blue light surrounding them as I slowly disappeared.

When I came too, the first thing I saw was green. I blinked a few times, each time my vision getting clearer. Once my vision cleared, I began observing my surroundings.

I was laying on my back, looking uo at the sky. Bright blue, and mostly covered by leaves. I traced the leaves to their source, tall, think trees of all types. Beneath me was a soft material.

‘Wait…am I…outside?”

I sat up, though it felt rather awkward. I looked around and confirmed that I was, in fact, in the middle of a forest. Outside.

‘Wait a second…” I patter the ground under my paws, carefully. The grass was soft and kind of tickly, the dift underneath rough. “I…I can feel! I have a sense of touch! How is this possible?”

I could feel. I was a robot, no matter how well programmed, even if haunted by children’s souls that allows them to have emotions, robots can’t feel. We have no nerves, just like we have no tastebuds. We can’t feel, and we can’t taste. So…why could I, all of a sudden?

I slowly stood up, only to fall onto all falls. “What the…heck?”

Hooves. I had hooves. Not paws, hooves. I looked around to see my feet had turned into hooves too. I looked around and saw a river. I stumbled over as fast as I could and looked at my reflection. I had kept my blue eyes and brown coat but…I wasn’t really an animatronic bear anymore. My ears were pointed, I had a short, dark brown mane and tail, and on my flank was a picture of a microphone.

A pony. That’s what I was. I knew I was a pony, and not a horse, based on the toys the kids sometimes brought with them to the pizzeria. I looked like one of them. But, I wasn’t a toy, I was real, alive, breathing.

I was alive.

No longer a machine, a creature with flesh, blood, bones, skin. A smile spread across my face as I came to this realisation.

“I’M ALIVE!!” I shouted, throwing my hooves to the sky. I trotted around jumping a little, having fun in my body in pure excitement. “I’m alive! Oh I forgot how it felt! To have a real body, to feel, to smell, to have flesh! Oh, it was wonderful! I had never felt so alive! Which makes sense because I never was before but I'm - " Suddenly I stopped in my tracks. "The others...Foxy? Chica, Bonnie!" I began to call out. "Where are you guys?"

“Ugh…” I heard a faint groaning.

“Foxy?” I looked around, quickly noticing Foxy on the bank across the river. ”Foxy!” I ran into the water and swam to the other side, not a single fear of malfunctioning.

I reached my friend, taking a moment to observe his new appearance. All his ‘injuries’ were gone, he was all fixed up. He had a scruffy dark red mane, tied up into a low, short ponytail. His ‘flank-symbol’ as I dubbed it was a skull and crossbones, only with fox ears. He kept his eye-patch and hook, though it wasn’t really a hook, just a sort of, metal platform, like the bottom of a hoof. Guess you can’t really walk on a hook can you? What was strange were the wings in his back.

“Hey, Foxy, wake up,” I said, shaking him lightly (kind of hard to do with hooves but I managed).

“Ugh…huh?” he said, blinking slowly. “Cap’n…” Suddenly his eye’s widened. “Cap’n! What happened ta ye, to…me…” he looked down at himself, as well as around proceeding to walk in circles. To any bypasser, it would look like he was chasing his tail.

“I don’t know how, but, we’re ponies now,” I said.

“Well, fix it!” he said frantically.

“Hey, look one bright side!” I said. “You’re ALIVE! Flesh and blood!” Foxy tried to avoid cringing when I said the word blood. “Sorry. My point is, your not a robot anymore! You’re a living being! You can feel and taste!”

“Aye…aye, I guess I can…” he said, started to cheer up.

“Come on. We need to find the others,” I said.

“GAAH!!!”

“I think we found ‘em,”

“What the hell!? What happened to me?”

“Bonnie, calm down!”

“Why should I!?! Have you looked at yourself?”

We walked into the clearing to see a yellow mare trying to calm do a frantic purple stallion. Chica had a messy long yellow mane and orange tail, as well as wings, like Foxy. Her flank-symbol was a slice of pizza. Bonnie had a spiky, styled purple mane and tail and a horn, making him a unicorn. His flank-symbol was a red guitar.

“You’re a pony,” I said calmly.

“No I’m not! What pony have you seen that’s PURPLE? And has a picture on their butt? And has a HORN for Celestia’s sake?” he exclaimed. “Why did I just say ‘for Celestia’s sake’? What’s Celestia?”

“You done?” Chica asked.

“For now.” He responded

“Good. FREDDY WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!?!?!?”

“Alright, everyone jus’ calm down…” a familiar southern drawl echoed through the trees as a golden pony walked into the clearing. He looked just like me, only he was a different colour, his flank-symbol was completely black, like a silhouette, and his eyes were completely black with white pricks.

“Golden!” I ran happily over to my big brother, giving him a (awkward) hug. “Where’ve you been?”

“Just…checkin’ up on an ol’ friend…”he said, absent mindedly. “But that’s not important right now. What’s important is findin’ a way outta this here forest,” he said. Suddenly his eye’s widened.

“What?”

The others began backing away as well. “Uh…Cap’n?” Foxy said nervously, pointing a hoof behind me. I turned around to see…the biggest bear I had ever seen, growling, thick saliva dripping from his sharp fangs.

“Huh. I don’t remember bears being blue with star patterns on their coat,” I commented.

“I don’t remember ponies being multi-coloured with pictures on their butts either,” Bonnie added.

“Good point. RUN!!!!!!!!” I commanded.

And with that, we were out of there.

Chapter 2 - Meeting Fluttershy...Sorta

I ran as fast as my paws, or hooves would carry me. Foxy ran ahead of the group, followed by Bonnie, then me and Chica, Golden behind us. The bear was right on our tail.

Suddenly Golden stopped and turned around.

“Gold? What are you doing?” I asked.

“Y’all go on ahead, I’ll hold ‘im off!” he yelled.

“What!?!”

“Come on!” I was pulled away by a red hoof.

“But, he’s a pony now! He could get hurt!”

“Better one lad get hurt than all of us! We’ll get help as soon as we can, Cap’n, now come on!” Foxy insisted.

I looked back once more. The bear had caught up to my brother and was roaring at him, saliva dripping from his fangs. Golden stood his ground. I pulled my eyes away and focused on what was ahead of me.

“I think I see an exit!” Bonnie yelled, rushing towards the light. We followed.

As we broke into the daylight, a flash of gold entered my vision.

“Ah think ah bought us some time,” he said. “But ah dunno how long that branch’ll hold ‘im.” Golden looked behind him. “Sure is a stubborn one!”

I looked behind me to see a rampaging bear hot on our tail, stumbling threw the trees. I looked around and spotted a small cottage, with a backyard full of animals hopping around. “In there!” I shouted. “We’ll hide in the chicken coop until it passes.”

We made a beeline for the chicken coop.

“Ugh,” was the first thing Chica said as she entered the coop. “It stinks in here.”

“How could ye say that, Chica?” Foxy teased, nudging her. “This is yer home, right?”

“What makes you say that?” she said, annoyed.

“Well, yer a chicken aren’t ye!”

She just turned away mumbling, defeated. “Darn fox…”

Suddenly the floor started shaking and thumping. I poked my head out to see the bear standing just outside the cottage, sniffing the air. It turned to look at me. I darted back inside.

“Uh, guys? I think they found us!” I said.

“Well, we’ll jus’ have ta show this landlubber not ta mess with us” Foxy said, hitting his hoof with his ‘hook’. “the hard way!”

“Foxy no!” I reached out a hoof, but he was long gone.

“Hey! Over here, ye scurvy dog!” he yelled.

The bear looked over to Foxy and bared his fangs. Foxy growled and ran over to the bear, growling. He leapt towards it and-

“STOP!!” a soft female voice yelled. Foxy stopped in his tracks, flaring his wings and somehow hovering.

In front of him, staring down the bear, was a butter-yellow winged-pony with a curled, flowing pink mane and teal eyes, a picture of 3 butterflies on her flanks. “What do you think you are doing young man?” she shouted.

The bear cowered a bit but stood it’s ground. The pony closed her eyes and opened them again in an intense stare. It gave me a weird vibe, I’d hate to be at the receiving end of it. “Why would you attack these innocent ponies! Wait until I tell your mother about this!”

The bear backed off and walked regrettably back into the forest. I slowly walked out of the chicken coop nervously, the others behind me.

The pony turned to us and floated down to meet us. “Oh my gosh, are you alright? I hope you didn’t get hurt,” she said, worriedly.

“Nah, we’re fine,” Golden said, walking over. I gasped as I saw his side.

“Brother, you’re hurt!” I said, reaching out to him. He had a large gash on his side. It didn’t look very deep but he was still bleeding quite a bit.

“Ah’m fine, it’s just a scratch,” he said. “And you miss?”

Suddenly the pony seemed to shrink in on herself and squeaked. “Is everything alright?” I asked.

“Y-yes…”

“Would you like to introduce yourself?” I asked.

“Um…I’m Fluttershy…” she responded.

“Um…alright,” I said, not wanting to push. “Thanks for saving our lives back there. My name’s Freddy Fazbear, and this is Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, and my brother Golden Freddy,” I introduced myself and my friends. “I don’t suppose you have a first aid kit around?” I asked, gesturing towards my brother’s wound.

She nodded and walked inside.

Chapter 3 - Meeting Fluttershy - Properly This Time

We followed the pony into her cottage. It was rather homey, filled with small animals, birdhouses and pet beds. There were several small animals, birds, squirrels, things like that just roaming around. We walked in and they turned to look at us curiously. Most of them went back to their business, but a few came over and started investigating. Bonnie laughed as a brown bunny came over and began sniffing his hair. I chuckled when a hamster crawled on my head. We went over and sat on the couch.

The mare came downstairs carrying a small case with a plus symbol on it. She took out a bandage and some antiseptic with a wing and began treating Golden.

“Hey, you were pretty brave out there,” Bonnie said.

She gasped. “N-no-one’s called me brave before…” she said.

“Why not?” Bonnie asked.

“I’m actually quite shy and scared usually.”

“Well you don’t seem to be now.” Bonnie said.

“Yeah, I guess. I’m Fluttershy, by the way.”

“I’m Bonnie.”

“That’s a nice name.”

“Really? Most people make fun of me because of it...”

“Why?”

“Mostly because where I live, Bonnie is a girl name.”

“Oh, my. Have people mistaken you for a girl before?”

“Oh yeah, loads of times. I hate it.”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

“What are you by the way? I’ve never seen a pony with wings before, except for my friends, but they don’t really know either.”

“Oh, I’m a pegasus!”

“Huh, that sounds cool. You are so lucky to be able to fly!”

“Yes but, you’re a unicorn. You have magic.”

“Oh, well no-one ever really taught me how to use it.”

“Uh, ah hate ta interrupt y’all,” Golden said. “But would ya mind explaining where we are?”

“Oh, I’m sorry,” Fluttershy apologised. “You’re in Ponyville.”

“Ponyville?” Chica asked.

“Yes. Ponyville of Equestria.”

We all kinda just gave her a blank stare.

“You’re not from around here, are you?” Fluttershy asked.

“No. Actually we’re from-“

“Hold on Cap’n,” Foxy stopped me midsentence. “Are ye sure we can trust this pony with this?”

“She seems pretty trustworthy,” I said.

“Looks can be deceiving.”

“We need help, Foxy. We can’t expect to get back to the pizzeria without help,” I explained.

“What if I don’t want ta go back!” Foxy yelled, jumping out of his seat and into the air. “We have a new chance at life, uneventful and peaceful, and ye want to go back!?”

“Foxy-“

“Oh of course ye’d want ta go back, yer loved by all, children and adults alike! But me? I’m forced ta sit behind a curtain all day long! Ye understand, right, Golden?” he shouted, turning to Golden.

“Sorry Foxy. Ah can’t leave the band and the children alone. Ah usually just watch over ‘em all day,” he explained. “An’ ah enjoy it. Ah can’t relate.”

“Ugh!” he yelled, before flying off.

“Foxy, wait!” I reached out but was too late. Foxy was long gone.

Foxy flew through the sky. He closed his eyes, ignoring the tears. ‘Maybe a flight will help’ he thought. He flew into the sky, doing a few flips as he went, above the cloud layer. He pushed forward, streamlining his body as thin as he could make it, for increased speed. The wind whipped through his hair, air ruffling his feathers. It was exhilarating. “Waahoo!” He exclaimed, voice full of joy.

“Hey.”

He turned to the left to see another pegasus, this one a light blue with a messy rainbow-coloured mane and magenta eyes. “Your pretty fast! For a rookie I mean. Cool eye-patch by the way,” she said.

“Huh?”

“Bet I could be ya in a race though.” She said, dashing off.

A competitive light flashed in Foxy’s eye. “Yer on.”

Foxy: Ah, nothin' like a good ol' fan fiction ta help an ol' pirate vent.
Pip: You sure you didn't go a little overboard?
Foxy: Aye, I be sure.

Chapter 4: Race

Foxy flew as fast as he could. His mane blew in the wind, blowing through his feathers. It was exhilarating. However Foxy wasn’t focused on that. He was focusing on beating that mare.

“No way am I letting some wee lass beat me…” he muttered.

Said mare turned back around, flying backwards. “That all ya got, big guy?” she asked.

Foxy growled. “Ye haven’t seen the start o’ it!” He surged forwards suddenly, powered by adrenaline.

“Pfft, boooring” she teased, fake yawning.

“Oh, I’ll show ye borin’!” Foxy said.

He flew downwards towards the town, weaving through the buildings. He heard a whoosh as the mare pulled up behind him. “Hey, not bad. Name’s Rainbow Dash,” she said putting out a hoof.

Foxy reluctantly shook it. “Foxy.”

She quickly flew off again. “Betcha can’t bet me!” she said, dashing off again.

“Lass has the maturity of a 5 year-old,” he said, blasting after Rainbow. She led him through the town, weaving through the streets. She turned around and stuck her tongue out, flying into a sign post. Foxy took this opportunity to overtake her. He flew inside a building, interrupting a tan earth pony scolding her son, who looked on curiously. Foxy flew down the stairs and out the front door, Rainbow hot on his trail. He took a sharp turn upwards into the clouds. Rainbow followed him. She stopped and hovered above the clouds.

“Heh you’re pretty good!” she said. She looked around. “Hey, where’d he go?” suddenly she was pulled down by a red hoof and one made of metal into the clouds.

“Gotcha!”

“Hey, lemme go!”

“OK, OK, hold on ta yer horses,” Foxy said, letting her go. He stopped to consider what that saying might mean in a place like this. He shrugged and jumped out of the cloud with Rainbow.

“OK, you totally tricked me!” she said, annoyed.

“Hey, I’m a pirate. It’s what I do!” Foxy said.

“So the accent isn’t just for show, huh?” she asked. “Wow, that’s really cool!”

“R-really?” Foxy asked. “Wow…nobody’s called me ‘cool’ in a very long time…”

“Wow that must be tough – wait, ‘nobody’? You mean ‘nopony’?” she asked, curious.

“Huh?”

‘Oh, right, it must be different here,’ he thought.

“Uh, Aye, that’s what I meant,” he said.

“So, what were ya doing flying around like that? You didn’t seem to have a destination in mind and you looked kinda pissed.”

“Oh, right, it’s hard ta explain. But yer right, I was angry.” Foxy said. “How did you know I didn’t know where I was going?”

“I’m a professional fly, that’s why! Wonderbolt Reserve as a matter of fact!” she boasted.

“Uh…’Wonderbolt’?” Foxy asked.

“You don’t know who the WONDERBOLTS are??” Rainbow exclaimed, like it was some kind of crime. “They’re only the most legendary flyers in Equestria!”

“Ah…”

“…”

“…”

“So you want me to show you around? Or have you already got a guide?”

“Uh, I’m not sure. I should probably get back ta me friends now. Not sure how to get back though?”

“I’ll help ya! Know where they might be?” Rainbow offered.

“Aye, uh, this Mare called, uh, Flutterby or something’, ya know where she lives?” Foxy asked.

“Yeah, I do! Fluttershy’s one of my best friends! I’ll lead the way!” she offered, flying into the air. “Try to keep up!”

Author's Note

Sorry for the kinda short chapter :/

Chapter 5: Experimentation and a Mission

Author's Note

Pip: This might've been better off as 2 separate chapters but we couldn't find a way to properly separate it.

Chapter 5: Experimentation and a Mission

“Foxy, wait!” I reached a hoof after him but he was already gone. “Oh Foxy…”

“Um, is he OK?” Fluttershy asked.

“Yeah, he’ll be fine,” Bonnie said. “He’s just a little…angry.”

“Alright…what did he mean? ‘Loved by all, children and adults alike’? ‘Sit behind a curtain all day’? Could you please explain?” she asked. “Um, if you want to that is.”

The four of us shared a glance. I nodded. “I think she needs to know. She deserves to know at the very least.”

“Yer right,” Golden agreed. “She should know.”

“I’m not so sure guys…” Chica said.

“What are you talking about? She’s totally trustworthy!” Bonnie added. He muttered something under his breath.

“Huh?”

“Nothing!”

“Alright, Ah’ll tell ‘er.” Golden said.

He explained everything. The pizzeria, how Foxy was out of order. He left out some of the details of course – she didn’t seem like the type who like gory stuff.

“Now we need to find a way to get back. Can you help us?” I asked.

Fluttershy nodded. “I’m afraid I might not be much help, but I can try! I know someone who could though…”

Rainbow flew into the house hooves first. “Hey, Shy, ya here?” she asked. “Huh, looks like she’s not home.”

Foxy dragged himself in, sweating like crazy. Rainbow spotted a note left on the table and read it.

“I know where she is, let’s go!” she said, flying off again.

“Ay, wait fer me would ya!”

“This isn’t exactly what I had in mind,” I said over the whirring and beeping.

Fluttershy had taken us to see her friend, Twilight Sparkle. Once she explained the situation, Twilight had been absolutely fascinated by the ‘highly-advanced technology’ used to ‘construct such technological masterpieces’. Of course, we wanted to as much as she could about. SO here, we were, attached to all sorts of machines watching our heart rates and analysing our DNA.

“Oh my God this is so BORING,” Bonnie exclaimed.

“I knoooooow I’m gonna diiiieeeee!!” Chica replied, emphasising it with lots of strange head movements before ‘face-desking’ the platform her forehooves were attached to.

“Patience, ya’ll. Who knows, all these ‘ere might help us out. Ah mean, we’re still not completely what we are yet…” Golden said.

“Yeah, I’m sure she’s nearly done!” I said optimistically.

“Ugh. Hey miss!” Bonnie shouted.

Twilight looked over, pushing her glasses up her muzzle. “Yeah?”

“You got a DS and a copy of Smash Bros I could borrow I’m boooored,” Bonnie asked.

“Uh…I have no idea what that is,” Twilight deadpanned.

“Seriously!?!”

“Calm down Bonnie, they probably don’t have video games in this world yet,” I told him.

“We have video games, but nothing portable. They just stay at the arcade,” Twilight corrected me. “But if you’re bored, why not try reading?” she suggested.

“Ugh, reading’s for eggheads…”

Twilight rolled her eyes. “Jeez, you’re as bad as Rainbow Dash used to be.”

Just as Rainbow said that, the basement door slammed open, a pegasus standing in the doorway

“Speak of the devil and she doth appear,” Twilight mused.

“Hey Twi!” Rainbow Dash greeted her. “Who are these guys?” she asked.

“Oh, this is Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Golden Freddy,” she said.

A familiar red stallion stumbled in, exhausted. “Jeez, Dash, a pirate’s only got so much energy…”

“Foxy!” I said, relieved he was alright.

“Oh, hi Freddy. Uh, sorry, about earlier…” he said, rubbing his neck sheepishly.

“Its OK,” I said.

“OK…” Foxy said, still panting. He looked up and his eyes widened. “Woah, what happened to ye?”

“SHE happened,” Bonnie said, tilting his head towards Twilight.

“Rainbow, please explain to Bonnie here that books are not just for eggheads,” Twilight said.

Rainbow grabbed a book of a stand near the wall and tossed it at Bonnie, smacking him in the face.

“Ow!” the book bounced off Bonnie’s face and into his hooves

“Here. Educate yourself,” she said.

Bonnie rubbed his head and read the title out loud. “’Daring Do and the Quest for the Sapphire Stone’…”

“Just trust me on this one,” Rainbow said. “Anyway, I just came over to drop Foxy off, so I’ll be going now.”

“Aw man, you can’t stay?” Twilight complained.

“What would I do, just sit there and watch you with your nerd stuff?”

“I know, I know, it’s just I barely get to spend time with you anymore,” Twilight said sadly. “You’re always busy with other things…”

“Oh, uh, right, right, uh…” Rainbow said sheepishly. “Look, I’m sorry, I just, ugh, sorry Twi…We’ll hang out soon, OK?” she said.

“Yeah, OK…” Twilight said.

“We’ll, uh, I’ll just be going now, bye!” Rainbow said hastily before flying out.

“Awkward…” Bonnie said quietly to me.

Twilight pressed a button on her machine and it printed a few pieces of paper. “OK, I’ve analysed you all, now I need to look over all this so feel free to relax in the library with Fluttershy will you wait,” she said, undoing us and trotting upstairs.

“FREEDOM!!!!!!!!” Chica yelled, racing up the stairs we followed her into the main library.

It was pretty simple – a cosy room with bookshelves lining the walls, a few couches and cushions covering the floor. The whole room was made of wood.

“So the place really is made from a tree…” Golden said thoughtfully.

I turned to the others. “Something’s going on between her and that ‘Rainbow’ girl,” I said.

“Well, yeah, duh,” Bonnie replied, setting down on a larger cushion. “So?”

“SO we should try and help them,” I said. “That’s our job isn’t it – making people happy?”

“Technically our job is making kids happy. Doesn’t say anything about adults,” Chica intervened.

“They kinda act like kids though…” I said. “Look that’s not the point. There’s something going on here…”

Suddenly a delicious scent filled my nostrils. A turned towards the kitchen and saw Fluttershy walking out, holding a plate of cookies and cakes.

“Oh, you’re all done! I made some treats for you all! I thought you might be hungry!” she said cheerfully.

“OH YEAH I AM!!” Bonnie said, leaping towards the tray. Fluttershy squeaked and jumped out of the way quickly like a scared bunny (quite ironic actually).

“Ow…”

“Ohmygosh I’m so sorry Bonnie! Are you OK?” she asked worriedly.

“Yeah, I’m fine,” he said, rubbing his head with a hoof. He grabbed a cookie from the tray, as quick as lightning and took a bite. “OHMYGODSOGOOD!!!!!!!!” He said, eating like he had never eaten in his life. Which he kind of hadn’t.

Fluttershy giggled and put the plate down on a table, grabbing a brownie for herself. “So what were you talking about before?” she asked.

“We noticed something going on between Rainbow Dash and Twilight and want to help,” I said.

“No, YOU want to help.” Bonnie said. “I want to focus on getting home.”

“I thought we already talked about this, lad…” Foxy said. “Anyway, I be with Freddy on this one. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a chance to make anyone happy…”

“Anyway, could you help?” I asked.

“Of course! I’m always happy to help other ponies!” Fluttershy said. “Rainbow Dash has been avoiding Twilight a lot lately, and I can’t figure out why.”

“Hmm…is there anything going on between them that you know of? What’s their relationship like? How well do they get along?” I asked. Any information might help. I like to think I’m good at this kind of thing.

“Well, they get along really well, despite their personalities being like night and day. They’re the best of friends,” Fluttershy closed her eyes and made a cute humming noise, like she was thinking. “There is one thing…”

“Anything will help,”

“Well, I think Rainbow might have a bit of a crush on Twilight.”

Bonnie took a spit take and starting choking a bit. “Wait WHAT? Am I the only one who didn’t think this was where this was going?”

I nodded. “So, Fluttershy, what makes you say that?” I asked.

“Well, I’ve known Rainbow Dash since we were fillies. She got this crush on another filly, Knighting Bust or something, but she was turned down. She was heartbroken.

“A while ago she was displaying some of the actions she did back then, whenever she was around the filly. I looked into it and it only seemed to happen with Twilight. Now that I think of it, it would make a lot of sense. Rainbow used to spend a lot of time with Twilight until recently, when she just, stopped…”

This peaked my interest. “Do you know why she stopped?”

Fluttershy shook her head. “No, but lately I’ve seen her just sitting on a cloud thinking or going for a fly without actually focusing on where she was going.

“That’s how she found me – I was goin’ fer a flight to clear me head and she just turned up next ta me,” Foxy added.

“Hmm…” I put a hoof to my chin and thought. ‘It all adds up – Rainbow had a crush on Twilight. On it’s own this would explain why she is avoiding Twilight, but instead she seemed to spend even more time with Twilight since then she figured it out…maybe she’s planning something…’

“Well, thanks for the help Fluttershy. We’ll look into it and try to help. Who’s with me?” I asked.

“Count me out,” said Bonnie. “Like I said, I’d much rather focus on getting home then help out with someone’s love life.” He sighed and looked out a window. “That said, I wouldn’t be much help anyway. I’ll probably try to figure out my way around this place and see what this place has to offer.”

“Yeah, me too,” Chica said.

“Gold?”

He shook his head. “Ah would, but Ah need to check if anyone else from our world ended up here. I’d also like to look over Twilight’s notes with ‘er if she doesn’t mind,” he said.

“Welp, looks like it’s just me and you Foxy,” I said.
