Leaf-ing the Dream!
Ch4 Say "Trees!". Trees!
Previous ChapterNext Chapter*Night of the third day*
Fluttertree was having a hard time going to sleep tonight. It wasn't the pain that AJ did to her, heavens no, the pain was already gone but something else was bothering her.
"...it’s so lonely..." whisper Fluttertree as she scans the area.
She didn't realize how lonely she was after AJ and the CMC left to return home this afternoon. Sure animals came around a few times but she needed to speak to somepony. She wanted to listen to anypony, even if it was a simple hi or hello. She finally realizes that a tree life wasn't that peaceful...it was very lonely.
Fluttertree stare into the night sky and watch the stars slowly moved across the sea of the night sky and shed a tear as she spoke "...I want to go home...”
The forest was very quiet if anypony enter it but if they had cast the plant spell, they could hear somepony crying. Crying their heart out.
Outside of ponyville
Within a tree cottage, a rainbow mare was chasing a white bunny as the rabbit stole her dinner.
"COME BACK HERE!" shouted Dash as she chases the rabbit across the room "GIVE ME MY HAY FRIES BACK, YOU LITTLE MONSTER!”
The rabbit jump on the table and slap its butt at her, which made Dash, filled with more fury. Angel jump off the table with the dish as he watch Dash turn red with anger and blasted at him.
Down the road, a pink mare with a puffy mane, was heading toward the house but soon stop as she heard stuff being crash into.
"Oh! Fluttershy throwing a party!" smiled Pinkie as she hop to the door and knock with her head but the door slowly open as the noise didn't stop.
At that moment, Dash finally caught that evil rabbit as she jump on it and took back the dish and did the thing that Link does when he finds an item. Right before she could enjoy her prize, a pink blur jump out from the door and crash on top of her and Angel.
"THE PARTY QUEEN IS HERE!" cheered Pinkie as she started to dance "TURN THE MUSIC UP! THIS IS MY SONG!”
"Pinkie...”
Pinkie started to do the moon walk and even break dance but quickly stop as she notice something.
"Wait a minute!" shouted Pinkie as she look around the room "There no music!”
Dash and Angel did a face hoof/paw and push her off as they stood up.
"Pinkie! You’re so random." said Dash as she dusts herself off.
Seeing her super cool friend here, Pinkie hop around her and smiled. This party just became 20% cooler! In Pinkie's book.
"I didn't know that Fluttershy could throw a super, awesome, fun, amazing... (ten minutes later)...epic party!" smiled the party pony.
"Huh?" said Dash as she turns around to her after cleaning the place up "What was that?”
"Oh! I said...mmmm." said Pinkie as Angel stuff a carrot in her mouth before she could start again.
A few minutes pass and Pinkie got caught up on everything as Dash explains why she was here and taking care of the animals. Since Pinkie was gone this whole week, as she watch her sister perform in Manehattan with her band, she was out of the loop, how Fluttershy wanted to be a tree.
"Ooooh!" gasp Pinkie "but why did you call me here?"
Dash grab her fan made Wonderbolts jacket and official Wonderbolts goggles and turn to Pinkie and answer her "There been a last second change to the weather for tonight, the others and I are going to set it up, so I need you to watch over Fluttershy place."
With that said Dash took off and vanish into the night sky as dark thunder clouds started to appear. As Pinkie shut the door, a weird feeling took over her body. Her body made her tail twitches and followed up with a combo that she knew too well.
"Oh no!" cried Pinkie as she stare into the forest where Dash flew over "A dozy!”
*Back in the forest*
Fluttertree was still crying as she felt so lonely. She wanted the day to come faster, so Twilight can transform her back from her dumb wish.
"...please Luna...ends the night faster..." prayed Fluttertree as she closes her eye and finally went to sleep.
As she slept, a rainbow blur flew above her and vanish over the dark gathering clouds.
"What is this!" shouted Dash as she landed on white cloud and face the weather team.
"It's called a job!" snorted a red Pegasus known as Firefly as she pushes a cloud into place.
Everypony on the weather team knew that Firefly always had to finish Dashie job when she was too lazy.
"Ha ha ha, good one Firefly." said Dash in slight anger "but for real! Why are there thunderclouds? The forecast report just said rain and nothing else."
"What are you talking about? We all got reports for a thunderstorm!" answered Firefly as her and the other showed Dash their letters.
Dash scans each letter and quickly realizes something. The ID code at the bottom didn't match the code for ponyville weather system.
"Great! Another mix up!" snorted Dash as she tosses the paper away “when will does idiots at the weather program ever learn?”
Dash summon everypony and told them what happen and quickly ask everypony to remove the thunderclouds carefully, she didn't want to start the storm.
"MUFFINS!”
"Huh?" said everypony as they spotted a gray blur heading their way.
Soon they all realize it was ditzy doo or known to others, Derpy Hooves the mail pony of ponyville.
"SORRY! I SENT THE WRONG FORECAST LETTERS TO THE WRONG TEAM!" shouted Derpy has she almost reach them.
Dash and the others quickly tried to stop her from landing on the thunderclouds but it was too late. As she landed, she active the thunderclouds and the thunderstorm began.
FLASH!
"Huh!" spoke Fluttertree as a loud noise woke her from her deep sleep.
She looks up to the dark gray sky after another thunder blasted across the sky. Soon, it started to rain and more flash of thunder lit the sky. The weather team did a great job in making this storm but something was wrong.
"why are there so many thunder?" whisper Fluttertree as she grew more scared as the sky kept unleashing thunder from the dark clouds.
"What the hay is going on!" shouted Dash as she saw all the thunder being unleash "this isn't right!”
Back at ponyville
Within the town's library, Twilight finally woke from her deep sleep. She wasn't 100% recover but she couldn't help it, something woke her up. As she went to the window, she could see that she wasn't the only pony. Almost half the town was out and staring to the sky. The sky under ponyville was fine but far away and above the forest was a huge thunderstorm like they never seen before. The clouds kept unleashing thunder and thunder all over again in every second. It was madness but something hit Twilight mind.
"FLUTTERSHY!" shouted the purple mare as she storm out of the tree house and headed to the forest.
*Back at Fluttershy house*
Pinkie and Angel watch in fear as the thunder started to hit the forest. They weren’t afraid at the storm but afraid for their dear shy friend, who was out there, somewhere in the forest. Pinkie shut her eyes and prayed that her big dozy wasn't about Fluttershy. She could only hope and pray.
"Fluttershy..." whisper Pinkie as she shed a single tear.
*Back above the forest*
Dash and the others watch as the forest started to catch on fire as more lighting hit the forest. The weird part about this was that the red glow that the forest fire was giving off was beautiful. The little embers that shoot out of the forest, added to the evil but yet beautiful view. But a scream force Dash and the others to snap out of it and turn around to find where the scream came from. They all did sweatdrop as they realize that Derpy forgot her muffin at home.
"Derpy!" yelled Dash in pure anger "cut that out and come here!”
The derp Pegasus flew over to Dash and was soon handed a letter.
"I need you to send this to the higher ups as fast as you can!" said Dash as her place her hooves on Derpy shoulders "can I count on you?”
Dash was surprise to see Derpy eyes become normal and more serious looking than usual.
"Yes, Captain Dash! I'll get there in ten muffins flat or my name isn't Derpy Muffin Hooves" smiled the mail pony as she took off.
"DERPY!" shouted Dash "THE OTHER WAY!" as she notice that Derpy went the wrong way.
"Oops!" giggle Derpy as she corrects her mistake and flew off while upside down... (It’s Derpy, remember people)
Dash cracks a smile but that smile was soon replaced with shock and fear as she remembers who was in the forest.
"FLUTTERSHY!”
Dash quickly left Firefly in charge as they tried to move the clouds away from the forest but without getting zap. As Dash soar under the clouds where there was no thunder, she soon spotted Twilight and took off to meet with her.
As this was happening, Fluttertree was shaking with fear as the area around her was cover in flames. With no legs to move, she was stuck but her fear lifted as she heard Twilight and Dash voice. She could see them heading her way.
"Twilight! Dash!" cried Fluttertree.
"Where is she?" ask Dash as she just saw trees.
"She up ahead!" answer Twilight as she was forcing all the strength in her worn out legs to go faster.
Before Twilight and Dash could reach Fluttertree, a bright flash of thunder came from the clouds and hit the ground.
"AAAAHHHHH!" scream one of the girls in great pain.
