Yuki no Naka no Tenshi

Light began to pour into the room through blinds as it shined down on a large king sized bed, which looked pretty messy at the moment. A figure happened to be wrapped up under the covers and was groaning a bit when the light hit the ‘lump’ under the covers. The figure placed her hand on her head, she had a massive migraine that made her head feel like it was being crushed by a vice.

“...my head…” the ‘lump’ under the bed groaned as it poked it’s head out a bit, revealing a girl around 16-17 years of age with neck length pale pink hair, she was currently wearing pink pajamas that had images of cupcakes on them, but also had some other items on her, being some earrings and a collar of sorts, “Mou...wh-what happened last night?”

“Hiya Fluttershy, sleep well?” a cheerful voice asked, making the pale pinkette wince a bit.

“Pinkie...not so loud,” Fluttershy whimpered, “My head really hurts.”

“Oh… sorry,” Pinkie apologized as she walked over, showing her pink top, baby blue short shorts, thigh high pink and white socks, “Man...that was some party last night, huh?”

Fluttershy rubbed her head a bit as she sat, “Uh… I guess?”

“Yeah. I mean, you should’ve seen Rainbow and Twilight. Heh… they’re funny while drunk.”

“S...wait. Drunk?” Fluttershy blinked, “I thought you Pinkie Pie Promised to never bring alcohol to any of your parties, ever,”

“I did. I don’t know what the heck happened to bring alcohol,” Pinkie informed, giving a sheepish look, “Luckily, Rarity knew a spell that fixed them before they did anything. Oh, by the way, your costume is in the laundry room. I found it lying around on the ground… great job imitating Sailor Moon’s outfit. You acted like her perfectly too.”

“Arigato(thank you),” Fluttershy smiled, before she held her head in pain, “Ite...Pinkie, do you have anything for headaches?”

“Let me check. Oh, and by the way, you’re welcome for the pajamas,” Pinkie informed as she skipped out.

Fluttershy looked to see the pajamas that she was in, but was at a total blank for why it was she was in them and as to why she wasn’t home. The pinekette searched her memory, however most of it was a giant blank. All she remembered was coming to the party with her boyfriend… and that’s it. Just one big giant blank.

“Pinkie?” Fluttershy asked as she slowly tried to follow her, “Wh-wh-where’s Silver-kun?”

“Oh? He went home some time after you two disappeared last night,” Pinkie informed.

“I see…” Fluttershy noted as she slowly walked out, holding her still throbbing head.

“Yup. Strange thing...he had the same headache you have,” Pinkie added..

Fluttershy arrived at the first floor and saw some of the decorations were still around, “...you said we just disappeared. What happened?”

“Well… it all started after we figured out Dashy and Twilight were drunk…” Pinkie began as she began to make a flashback sound effect.

“H-hey Dash...h-hic! how’re ya?” Twilight asked in a drunken manner, a faint blush on her face as she was dressed as a stereotypical stage macian.

“I’m d...doing f-hic! fine Twilight Sp...sparkles…” Rainbow chuckled drunkenly, the tomboy currently dressed as a ninja, “You… hic… l-loo-o-o-ok hot…”

“Thanksh...you t...to…hic!” Twilight replied with a hiccup. She walked over and pulled Dash into a kiss, surprising the tomboy pegasus for a bit before she returned it.

As they kissed, Dash placed her hands on Twilight’s butt, giving it a firm squeeze, earning a slight surprised gasp from the Alicorn.

“...That’s.. shooo good…” Twilight drunkenly smiled.

“Heh...glad y...ya like-hic! it…” Rainbow Dash smirked drunkenly.

Pinkie skipped on over, currently wearing a Wyldstyle costume and she was walking alongside Sugar Belle, who was wearing a costume of Terra from Teen Titans.

“So then I told her that she wasn’t playing a vinyl, she was playing a pancake!” Pinkie told Sugar Belle, making her laugh.

“Oh Pinkie, that is hilarious!” Sugar Belle giggled, “You’re so good at jokes.”

“You know I’ll be there to smile with you, that’s why they call me laughter,” Pinkie smiled.

Before they could do anything else, a young girl walked on over, said girl having pale yellow hair done up in twin pigtails, similar to an odango style, was wearing a sailor fuku like outfit, the skirt being a bright pink, white gloves with the upper half being pink, pink boots, feathers atop a small part of her head, two red orbs of sorts to hold her hair in place, and a small yellow tiara with a red gem atop her head.

“Ano… Pinkie-san?”

“Hmm?” Pinkie blinked as she looked down at the young girl, “Yes, Timid?

“Twilight-san and Rainbow-san are acting funny… and what happened to the cherry punch? Some people are saying it tastes funny…” the girl, Timid, informed.

“Taste funny?” Sugar Belle repeated.

“H...hai,” Timid nodded, “I don’t know how…”

“...alright, uh… Sugar Belle, can you go ask about the punch? I’m gonna go and see what’s up with Twilight and Dashy,”

“Alright,” Sugar Belle nodded as she headed off one way, and Pinkie the other.

Pinkie passed by Fluttershy and her boyfriend, the two dressed as Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask respectively as they talked.

---

“That was the last time any of us saw you last night. After Rarity fixed Twilight and Rainbow and after we dumped out the punch, you two were nowhere to be found. We looked for you both for hours, eventually we had to stop and the others went home,” Pinkie explained, “I found you at about 1:40 in the morning, put you in some of my spare pajamas and let you sleep. What happened anyway?”

“...I wish I had an answer Pinkie,” Fluttershy admitted, twirling a lock of her hair as Pinkie brought her a glass of water, “I really wish I did.”

“Maud did end up finding Silver Hawk and took him and Timid back to their home,” Pinkie informed as she finally found some headache medicine, “Had to give Silver something for his stomach since he threw up.”

“Th...threw up?”

“Whatever it was somebody used in place of my cherry punch didn’t agree with him I guess,” Pinkie shrugged as she handed the medicine to Fluttershy, “So… do you remember anything before you woke up?”

“No. Nothing at all,” Fluttershy replied before tapping her chin a bit, “Though...something did slightly come up...honey.”

“Honey?”

“It’s blurred like an old TV, but I can just faintly remember Silver-kun saying something about honey…” Fluttershy informed, before she sighed, “...thanks for keeping an eye on my Pinkie. I owe ya,”

“Think nothin’ of it. It’s just what friends do,” Pinkie giggled, “I’m gonna call up Rainbow so she can take you home, k?”

“O...ok,” Fluttershy nodded as she took a seat.

Dash paced around in worry, the rainbowette currently in a cyan top, black bike shorts underneath a white skirt, white socks, and red running shoes.

“Come on… where are you?” Dash whispered as she attempted to call up Fluttershy, but it didn’t go through, likely due to Fluttershy’s phone being out of power, “Please pick up, Flutters…”

Suddenly, her phone began to ring, but it was from Pinkie’s house.

“...tch, this better be important Pinkie,” Dash muttered as she answered it, “What is it, Pinkie?”

-Hey, Dashie. Just wanted to let you know that Fluttershy is here with a wicked headache- Pinkie informed -Maud would’ve given her a ride home, but she’s out right now-

“On my way!” Dash said quickly as she hung up and got the keys for her car.

Fluttershy picked up her costume and took off the accessories for it, undoing the ondongo pigtails so her hair would fall back down to its original shape, “Ano… why didn’t you take these off me?”

“I didn’t wanna risk waking you up,” Pinkie informed, “Oh, by the way, what did you think of my Wyldstyle costume?”

“Oh...uh, I thought you looked nice.”

“Thank you!” Pinkie beamed, making Fluttershy wince a bit, “Oops..sorry. By the way, loved your costumes! They were really good,”

“Thanks. We decided to dress up as a couple that got together, a couple we thought off but ended up not using are Inuyasha and Kagome, Naruto and Hinata, and then Shinnosuke and Kiriko,”

“Those two hooked up? When?”

“Last two episodes. They were confirmed to eventually be married and Tomari Eiji is confirmed to be their son from the future, even though the one we saw in Surprise Future was actually Ichi-Zero-Hachi and-”

“No spoilers!” Pinkie hissed, making sure to not scream, “I’m still far behind.”

“Oh...ano, sorry.”

“...It’s cool. I just got up to the episode where Chase became a Rider again. He’s so awesome…” Pinkie giggled, “Bit of a shame he doesn’t have an insert theme. I really would’ve loved to hear Psychic Lover be the ones to perform a theme for him. One that could’ve triple acted for his three forms.”

Fluttershy nodded, “Guess they were busy doing StarNinger’s theme. Not that I have a problem with that.”

“Yeah. I mean, it’s cool that Psychic Lover does quite a few songs for Super Sentai and Yu-Gi-Oh, but they hardly did anything for Kamen Rider,”

“Don’t forget some of their work for Digimon. I loved ‘Tagiru Chikara’, one of their best songs,” Fluttershy smiled.

“I guess we’re a bit of otak-”

“NO!” Fluttershy shouted, “That is incorrect!”

“...huh?”

“Otakus are people who do not leave their homes, like… at all. They’re like people who live in basements, but worse,” Fluttershy explained, “You don’t say that word in the presence of somebody who is actually Japanese, you look like a major baka(idiot) for doing so.”

“Oh...sorry about that then,. I should be more careful next time.” Pinkie apologized.

“It’s fine… just don’t let it happen again, K?” Fluttershy requested.

“Gotcha,” Pinkie smiled, “...so…remind me. How long have you and Silver Hawk been going out again?”

“Hmm…four to five months now,” Fluttershy replied, a small smile on her face, “He’s so sweet and kind and caring… he loves me for me and not for my body. And I’m glad with him around… those perverted jocks at school have finally started to leave me alone.”

Pinkie nodded and let out an internal sigh, recalling how after Fluttershy had joined cheerleaders, some of the male sports players would try and hit on the poor girl. Fluttershy had declined them, but things began to escalate when they were openly talking about her chest and slapping her rear end in the hallway. Pinkie wanted to block out the memory of the day, but she remembered the day that had finally made Fluttershy quit the team, being a big football game where the players got drunk and decided to try and force the cheerleaders into doing some sexual things. Dash and Sunset were able to buy Fluttershy time to escape, but the shy pinkette refused to leave her house and go to school for weeks, scared out of her wits...she then recalled that one day...the day her shy friend tried to end it all when one boy tricked her into liking him as a sick joke. Her friends were able to get her to the hospital in time, but she didn’t wake up for weeks. When she finally woke up..she met him...Silver Hawk. At the time, he was still learning to be a doctor, so he’d help out with some of the patients from time to time. Pinkie failed to remember what made Fluttershy fall for him, but she was happy Fluttershy finally found someone to love her for who she was.

“...Fluttershy. Can you do me a favor?” Pinkie asked.

“Hmm? What is it, Pinkie?”

“Next time you see Silver Hawk… thank him for making you happy,” Pinkie smiled softly, “You deserve to be happy,”

Fluttershy smiled back, recalling how Silver Hawk was there for her the entire time she was in the hospital.

“Hey Pinkie!” Dash’s voice called out from outside, “Open up!”

“Coming~!” Pinkie called back in a sing songy voice as she skipped to the front door. As soon as she opened it up, Dash ran inside and scooped Fluttershy up into a hug.

“Fluttershy! Oh thank god you’re alright!” the tomboy exclaimed in a mix of relief and worry, “...where the heck were you?!?!”

“Ow… Onee-chan… bad migraine…” Fluttershy told her, gripping her head in pain.

“Oh...sorry,” Rainbow quickly apologized as she let go, “But seriously, where were you? I was starting to worry my flank off.”

“...I wish I knew,” Fluttershy admitted, “All I remember was coming to the party with Silver-kun, and the next thing I knew, I wake up in Pinkie’s bed.”

“I saw her at like… 1:40 something in the morning, put her in some pajamas and let her sleep,” Pinkie informed.

“...I see,” Rainbow noted, “...But whatever. I’m just glad my sis is safe and sound.”

“I’ll get the rest of her costume and put it in your car,” Pinkie smiled.

After waving goodbye to the party pinkette, Dash headed out for the road to get them home.

“So, what do you wanna do with this fine Sunday, sis? Play video games? Watch movies? read manga? Whatever you like.”

“...honestly, I just wanna take a bath and go back to sleep,” Fluttershy admitted.

“...Alright. Suit yourself,” Rainbow shrugged a bit, “I’ll just call AJ to see if she’s free or not. Still have to beat her for breaking my winning streak last week.”

“I’m not gonna sleep the entire day away… I just wanna try and sleep off this headache, so… we’ll do something later, sound fair?”

“...Alright. Sounds fair,” Rainbow nodded, “...so, how has Silver Hawk been treating you? ...he’s not trying anything funny with you, is he?”

“Oh my no. Silver-kun would never do something like that,” Fluttershy replied.

“Good...Just need to make sure,” Rainbow stated, “...But...next time you see him, thank him for me.”

“Eh?”

“For...getting you out of your depression after you woke up from your mini-coma.” Dash smiled.

“...I will,” Fluttershy nodded as they stopped by a stoplight, “...so how are things with you and Twilight?”

“Doing pretty good, actually,” Rainbow replied, “She’s been helping me with my studies and stuff so I wouldn’t get kicked off the team. She’s also been a great help with Scootaloo.”

“Oh? Did mom adopt her?” Fluttershy asked.

“...I’ve been thinking… maybe me and Twilight will do it. I’m not sure just yet,” Rainbow sighed a bit, “She and I really love Scootaloo like a daughter…”

Fluttershy nodded softly, soon they continued onward.

“...so, mind me asking what you and Silver Hawk did on your last date?” Dash asked curiously.

“Only if you tell me what you and Twilight did on your last date first,” Fluttershy smiled.

“...Ok,” Rainbow shrugged, ”Didn’t do much really. All we did was just head to the library, the local skating rink, a place to grab a bite to eat, then a small walk in the park before heading home.”

“Oh. Silver-kun took me to that skating rink on one of our first dates,” Fluttershy recalled, “...as for our date, we just had some Chinese food and then Silver-kun gave my legs and feet a massage… he’s really good at it,”

“Didn’t he work at an onsen at one point?” Dash checked.

“For a while yes,” Fluttershy nodded, recalling her boyfriend working there to get the money needed for school and medical supplies, “He’s so caring when it comes to the massages he gives. He even makes sure to get the hard spots, but also makes sure not to do it too hard.”

Dash just gave a nod before letting out a small sigh, “...can you tell him I’m sorry for the way I treated him after I learned you were starting to fall for him?”

Fluttershy winced a bti at that, recalling how…’protective’ Rainbow Dash was around her after that whole attempt at suicide months ago. Dash would visit so much out of both concern for her, and to make sure Silver Hawk wasn’t like those jerks from the football team, or that one guy who tricked her into liking him as a joke. Heck, she’d even spy on the two when they were on dates.

The rest of the ride was in silence as they arrived at the two story house they lived at. The place in question seemed pretty decent on the outside with a few bushes and a tree or two out front. Dash opened up the door, revealing that the inside of the place was pretty nice.

“Mom, I’m back and so is Fluttershy!” Rainbow called out, only to get silence, “...mom, I just said…”

“Ano...look,” Fluttershy spoke up, pointing to a note on the table, “‘Gone shopping, be back soon. Love Okaa-san’.”

“Oh….I guess we got the house to ourselves for a bit then,” Rainbow noted, “Why don’t I go on and start up that bath for you?”

“...thanks Onee-chan,” Fluttershy smiled.

“No prob,” Rainbow nodded as she ran up the stairs to get the bath ready for her sister.

Fluttershy just smiled softly at how her sister was willing to do this, even though she was the one that made her worry. While the two weren’t related by blood, she was glad to have Rainbow Dash in her life.

After about five or so minutes, Rainbow Dash walked back down stairs, a towel and a few clothes in her arms.

“Alright. Bath’s ready a-” the tomboy began before she noticed Fluttershy sleeping on the couch, snoozing softly. Dash smiled at the scene before her as she put the towel and clothes down on the table before she walked over, placing a blanket on the currently sleeping pinkette, “Sleep well… I love you, little sis.”

“Mmm...Onee-chan…” Fluttershy whispered in her sleep as she moved, causing a bti of her hair to move in front of her face, “...I love you…”

Rainbow Dash gave a soft smile as she moved the hair out of Fluttershy’s face, making sure not to wake the shy pinkette up.

Fluttershy woke up and was enjoying her bath, the pinkette giving off a sigh of relief as she rested in the soothing hot water. She could already feel her migraine slowly melting away as her body rested and relaxed. Though...one thing still floated around in her mind, what exactly happened last night?

“Hmm… what… happened?” she mumbled to herself as she held her chin in thought, “I know I came to the party last night with Silver-kun, but I don’t remember anything else past that.”

She stared at the mirror in thought, moving a bit of her currently wet hair out of her face, “Hmm… what could’ve happened?...Wait. I think I fairly recall Onee-chan and Twilight-chan acting...funny.”

It connected with what Pinkie said happened before the shy pinkette and her coltfriend had vanished. But the question is...where did she and Silver disappear to?

“What happened to the two of us?” she asked a little ducky she had floating in the water, giving it a small squeeze, “I see...you got nothing either...mou.”

She placed the duck back down and lowered herself a bit in the water, her hair spread out as she leaned her head back.

“Hey sis… how are you doing?” Dash asked as she knocked on the door.

“Fine, Onee-chan,” Fluttershy replied, “Just...pondering something is all.”

“...did Pinkie Pie tell you that me and Twilight somehow ended up drunk?”

“Hai,” Fluttershy nodded

“I thought she promised to never bring alcohol to her parties,”

“She didn’t. Someone switched the cherry punch out with that alcoholic stuff,” Fluttershy clarified, “Demo...who could’ve switched the drinks?”

“Probably some jerk looking for an easy lay,” Rainbow frowned.

Fluttershy just let out a sigh as she looked to her three duckies in the bathtub with her, she blew some of the bubbles that were in the bath up into the air.

“How’s your head?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“Much better. Still a bit of pain, but it’s nothing very serious…”

“Alright,” Dash smiled, “So… just a curiosity’s sake question. When you have a child… what would you name it?”

“...well, I think the name Spring Blossoms or Snow Angel sounds really pretty,” Fluttershy admitted.

“If I could have a child, I would totally name her Spectrum Boost,” Rainbow smiled a bit, “And she’d be as awesome as her mom.”

Fluttershy giggled a bit as she relaxed in her bath,.

“Onee-chan…” the shy pinkette spoke up.

“Hmm? What is it?” Rainbow asked

“...Nothing. Just thinking about something.”

“Oh...okay then. I’m gonna go and get something done, so I’ll leave you alone,” Rainbow stated.

“Okay,” Fluttershy nodded.

Soon, Fluttershy was dressed in yellow pajamas with pink and green butterflies on it, and pink slippers. She slowly walked into the room that she shared with Dash, which was a fairly large with with a pair of twin beds in it, a large dresser, a desk with a laptop on it, a closet that had their dressers in them, and then a book shelf with various manga, anime DVDs, and then various toys from Super Sentai and Kamen Rider on it. Fluttershy smiled softly as she sat down in her bed and cuddled up with a Sailor Moon plushie.

Then, for a fraction of a moment, just for a mere fraction of a moment, Fluttershy felt something… funny. She shrugged it off, assuming it was nothing.

...never would Fluttershy be more wrong in her entire life...
