Honeymoon of Loyal Kindness

Fluttershy woke up to a weird feeling, when she opened her eyes to see Rainbow had been stroking her mane gently."Hey sleepy head."

"What happened?"

"To be honest, I don't remember."

"Well, what should we do today?"

"I don't know?.....Hmm, we should have at least ONE day here, right?"

"Well.....OKAY!" The simply laughed as they laid back down.

"Do you think we should go surprise them in Canterlot!?" Pinkie asked standing up.

"Pinkie please!" Rarity asked looking up from the pattern she'd being studying. The girls had decided to have a picnic because it was a clear and sunny day.

"Rarity's right, you should quit worrying about them, nothing major is going to happen!" Twilight said, then looking back at the book she was reading, it had been entitled: Daring Do and the quest for the Sapphire Stone.

"Besides we agreed to surprise them at the train, 'member?" Applejack said, before also looking at the book Twilight was reading.

"BUT I MISS THEM!" Pinkie sobbed.

"Pinkie...they'll be back in a few days , i'm sure they're having fun, and they want you to have fun too." Twilight said and motioned for Pinkie to sit beside her."Come and read with us!"

"Hmm, okay!" Pinkie said as she plopped by her friends.

"Say, what are you three reading?" Rarity asked.

"Daring Do; Wanna join us?" Applejack asked.

"Eh, why not?"

"Rainbow, get your lazy flank out of bed!" Fluttershy said. She went over to the bed and used her wing feathers to tickle her neck.

"AH!" Rainbow screamed and flew into the air. When she realized what was going on, she gently descended back to the bed. "I thought we were spending today here..."

"Yes, well I thought we should at least go for a walk! Now get up!"

"UGH!" Rainbow groaned but got up anyway, and was so exhausted she didn't even mind when Fluttershy brushed her mane this time.

The two walked down the streets of Canterlot, laughing an cutting up, and stayed that way for an hour or so until-"AH!"

"Fluttershy!? What's wrong!?" Rainbow asked as she threw a wing around her to help keep her on her hooves.

"Not-nothing! My stomach just hurts  a little bit."

"Well, it sure seems a lot worse, are you sure you don't want to head back to the castle and have a stay at "home" day like I suggested?"

"Actually, that may not be such a bad idea."

When they got back to their room Rainbow forced Fluttershy to lay down, and was about to head to ask a favor of Princess Celestia."Do you think we should head home early?"

"I...Don't know.." Fluttershy stuttered.

"How's this, if you're still feeling this bad tomorrow, we'll go home?"

"Okay." Rainbow said as she headed to toward the door.

"Where are you going?"

"I won't be long baby I promise. I need to ask something of Celestia.

"Okay."

"Princess Celestia!?" Rainbow asked as she hurried into the throne room.

"Yes, Rainbow Dash? What's the problem?"

"It's Fluttershy, we were walking through Canterlot and she almost fell over. When I asked her what was wrong, she said it was her stomach."

"Where is she now?"

"In bed, I came to you to ask if I could send a letter to Twilight. We decided to head home if she doesn't feel better by tomorrow."

"Why of course! Here." Celestia levitated a scroll and quill to the pegasus, who began writing immediately.

Dear Princess Twilight,

Fluttershy seems to have contracted something, and if she's not better by tomorrow, then we are gonna head home. I have no idea what's wrong with her, but the Princesses here are going to help me. Please have our cottage ready for whatever it could be.....

-W. Rainbow Dash

Once Celestia sent the letter, she returned her gaze to the worried looking cyan pegasus."Is there anything Princess Luna or myself can do?"

"Well..This question might seem weird, but can you have Luna look into her dreams tonight, maybe there'll be clues as to what's going on?"

"Of course, now go back to your mare, goodnight Mrs Dash." Rainbow bowed to the Princess and quickly headed back to Fluttershy.

"WHAT!?" Twilight asked dropping the letter that she was holding with her magic.

"What's wrong Twilight?" Pinkie asked sitting up, she had been taking a nap in the throne of laughter.

"I just got a letter from Rainbow Dash.."

"Well, what's it say?" Applejack said.

"Fluttershy...she's not feeling right.."

"WHAT!?" Everypony and Spike yelled in unity.

"Rainbow and the Princesses are going to work to figure it out, but if they can't by tomorrow, they're coming home. And they want us to prepare their house for anything!"

"Well, we better get started then!" Rarity said, and everypony ran from the Castle of Friendship to the Cottage of Loyal Kindess.
