Pink, Yellow and Shy

Day 2

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Another day, another awesome adventure in Ponyville. Everything was absolutely perfect. Clear skies, lovely animals, and happy ponies all around the town, the place felt like heaven. In the cottage, the beautiful pony arose to the sound of her roosters.

*yawn* “I slept wonderfully last night. I better check to see how Cassie is doing,”

She walked upstairs to her bedroom and opened the door. She saw the occupant stretching, getting out of the plush nest.

Flutters smiled, “Good morning. I trusted you slept well?” Cassie couldn’t help but smile. “I know it would pretty boring to keep you in here all the time, so I thought today I’ll show you around.”

“Okay, but….” Cassie thought of what could go wrong.

“Don’t worry about it. They’ll understand,”

They went downstairs to have breakfast, discussing their tour.

“So, how would you like to meet my animal friends,”

*gasp* “I’d love to,”

“Great. You can head outside, I’ll take care of the dishes,”

“Okay, if you say so,” the dragoness said unsure.

The yellow pony turned around to where her friend was sitting. “Hmm, she acts like me most of the time,”

Outside, the animals were everywhere except by Cassie. She didn’t think they would react this way.

“Wait, I won’t hurt you,”

“That’s what you say now, but I’m watching you,”

The dragoness turned to see a white bunny with an angry look. “Oh, one left. Hey there,”

“En garde, monster!” he said, biting down on her with all his might.

She was caught off guard as she took one claw covering her mouth and swung the other, hoping the ambusher would get off. Flutters looked out the window to see a cute dragon about to be slaughtered by her well-trained angels, then it hit her. “Angel,”

A herd of many different creatures came out of their hiding, forming a circle around the helpless dragoness.

“ATTACK!!” the bunny signaled. The army launched themselves at their target, who was now cowering.

“STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!!!!” she yelled. The bunny whipped around to see it’s master.

“Who dares to cease Commander Angel Bunnybomb and the Army of the Everfree?”

“ ‘Tis I, General Fluttershy, and you shall not harm her,”

“FOOL! Do you not know what stands before you? The very creature of your nightmares, and thus it is my duty to support you in your time of need, so I have summoned the Army to the Everfree to dispose of it,”

“Then I will have to stop your plans,”

“DO YOUR WORST, BEAST!!”

The Pegasus unleashed her deadly Stare on the second-in-command. The herd looked on, wondering who would break first. The bunny struggled to keep his ground, but was quickly failing. His soldiers cheered him on to get him back in the game.

“C’mon, sir! You got this!” said a hawk.

“She bows to you. You own her,” said a bear.

“Use the flamethrowers!” said a falcon.

The commander screeched at his foe, catching her. It proved to be of very little effect.

“Grrr, you win this round, but be warned. That thing brings nothing but utter chaos. I will not stop until the beast has been slayed, FOR I AM….. AAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaah,”

*splash*

She then turned her attention to the soldiers of the wild. “Anyone wanna try their luck? Come on,” she said with cockiness. The animals slowly backed away from the enraged yellow Pegasus. Cassie looked at her protector.

“Wow, you’re good with them,”

“Oh, that’s right. I never told you I have a special way with animals. Believe it or not, I can speak to them and understand what they say,”

“Really? Wow,”

“I know. Ready to meet my friends?”

“Yes,”

The two started on their way to Twilight’s, but everypony outside stared at the awkward pair before, saying things like: ‘Fluttershy and a dragon that’s not Spike? Isn’t she scared?’ or ‘Spike’s the only dragon around here. Where did she come from?’ The more amazing thing was why the locals weren’t attacking, but that didn’t stop the fear from slithering inside the dragoness.

“Why are they looking at us like that?” she asked nervously.

“They’re probably confused to see me with another dragon,”

“Wait, ANOTHER dragon?”

“Yes. You see, there’s a dragon here named Spike, and… I’m not afraid of him,”

“Wow,”

They finally reached the castle of the Princess of Friendship, in which they were greeted by said dragon.

“Good morning, Fluttershy and…. Uh?” he paused, noting the dragoness his shy friend was accompanied by, “Hey, why are you with a dragon?”

“Oh, this is Cassie. You two haven’t met.”

“No….. we haven’t……” he said, staring into the eyes of the beauty.

“No, Spike. You’re in love with Rarity. You belong to HER!” He thought to himself. “Besides, you don’t even know this girl. You don’t even know if she’s of our world,”

“Yeah, I’ll get Twilight,”

The lavender pony was soon on her way down the stairs to welcome them.

“Oh, hi Fluttershy. I don’t think we ever got your friends name,” She turned back inside. “Spike, I’m going out. You’re in charge,”

The trio started on their way to Sweet Apple Acres. The orange farmer was already hard at work when she saw her friends walk by.

“Hi, Twi. Hi Flutters, Hi…….. DRAGON!!” All it took was one look to send her in a state of panic. She immediately made her way to the barn and barred the doors shut. The ponies were not amused at this. Twilight teleported herself and her pals inside.

“Applejack, There’s nothing to worry about,”

“Yeah, Cassie’s the greatest dragon friend ever,” Flutters stated with her hoof stamped on the table. “And take it from me, because I promised myself I take care of her until her wings feel better,”

“That’s great,” the farm pony sighed.

“Well, if you don’t mind, we’re going to Rainbow’s now,” the lavender pony sighed.

“Okay, y’all. Tell her Ah’m looking for her,”

“Alright,”

Their second stop: Rainbow’s house, where the spectrum Pegasus was staring down at the dragoness.

“So, you’re Fluttershy’s new friend, right?” she asked, hovering about the dragoness at an uncomfortable range.

“Y-yes”

“And….. YOU’RE A DRAGON!”

“Ugh!” Twilight sighed. “We already discussed this 50 times”

“Says the pony who triple-checks her checklists,” Dash countered.

Twilight’s face went red. “Whatever. We just stopped by to introduce you to each other”

“Well, hi Cassie,” she said sarcastically.

“Hi…” the dragoness responded with lots of nervousness.

“So, what are you doing here? Are you spying on us with that thing around your neck?” she asked, pointing out the blue orb.

“What is that?” Twilight asked curiously.

“Oh, it’s my Dragon Badge. It glows whenever we do something special,” Cassie answered.

“Oh, so is it like a Cutie Mark?”

“What’s that?”

“It’s kind of like something that tells you what your special talent is,”

“I don’t think I’ve heard of anything like that. Speaking of which, doesn’t Spike have a Badge?”

“Sorry, but no. Back to my question,” Dash interrupted. “Are you a spy?”

The adorable dragoness was offended by the behavior of the rainbow Pegasus. “No, I’m not, and Fluttershy knows it, besides, I only came here by accident,”

“That’s what you say now, but nopony gets one up on Rainbow Dash,”

The lavender alicorn was getting frustrated by this feud. “Stop. Just stop. We finished this argument already. Fluttershy’s friends with a dragon, she’s NOT a spy, and she needs help getting home. Oh…” she nearly forgotten to ask Cassie how to help her get back home. “…yeah, that reminds me, where exactly is your home?”

“Can we talk about with another one of our friends?” Fluttershy interrupted. “I wanted to show Cassie what all of them do,”

“Oh, sure thing. Almost forgot. AJ’s looking for you,”

As the trio left, Rainbow waved a hoof at them. “See ya later,”

“Much later,”

Their third stop: Carousel Boutique where Rarity was hard at work.

“Oh, hello girls. How can I help you today?”

“We wanted you to say hello to Cassie. She’s visiting all our friends, so we thought we should pass by,” the lavender pony said.

“A DRAGON?! What in Equestria would make you do THAT?”

“Don’t worry, she’s very nice,” came Flutters.

“Well Fluttershy, if you say so. Hi, my name’s Rarity and welcome to Carousel Boutique, where everything is chic, unique and Mani fique. How can I help you?”

“Well….” Cassie started.

“Ooh, how about I make you a dress. I haven’t had many chances to dress a dragon,”

The dragoness tried countless times to get the fashionista’s attention to stop, but to no avail. As the carnage went on, the ponies got stacked with clothing. When the marshmallow pony was finished, the pile was at least 7 feet tall.

“There. I think that suits you,” Rarity said while inspecting her work.

“Um…thanks?”

“Not to worry, my dear. It was my pleasure,”

“So… are we done?”

“Of course. I just have a few more pieces that you can try. Come by tomorrow to pick them up,”

“Will do,” Flutters smiled.

The tour was coming to a close at Sugarcube Corner with the wildest pony around: Pinkie Pie.

“Hey, girls and… *gasp* who’s this?”

“Pinkie, this is Cassie. She’s a new friend of ours,” the yellow Pegasus said.

“And a dragon,” the party pony said sarcastically.

Twilight was not amused. “Yes, we’ve been over this before, Pinkie,”

“Okey-dokey. HEY! I should throw a ‘Welcome to Equestria’ party! I’ll invite all our friends and we can play awesome games and we can eat cake…”

“Yeah, well maybe another time. It’s getting kind of late. We spent most of the afternoon at Rarity’s getting piled with dresses,”

“Okay…”

The lavender alicorn parted ways with the pony-dragon pair. The new pals headed back with lots of joy.

Fluttershy simply beamed. “Another great day, right Cassie?”

“Very great day”


Author's Note

Sorry this one took so long. I had a bit of down time and kind of cooled off. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. I'm going to try and mix it up a little bit with some action in the next one.
