When you're 25 and a pegasus, you must go on a migration with all of the other 25 year old pegasi. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash just turned 25 (Fluttershy first, and so did Derpy) so they hear about the migration and have to say goodbye to their friends. It's hard for not only the 2 pegasi, but the rest of their friends to say goodbye.

The Great Pegasus Migration.

Fluttershy waked out of her cottage door to get the mail. She looked threw all of it. angel, angel, angel, angel, angel, suddenly, something caught her eye. It was a neon yellow, and all of it was computer printed, except for her name.

Dear Mr/Miss.Fluttershy,
As you may or may not know, every Pegasusus that are the age of 25 excactly, MUST go to the great Pegasus migration. We will leave on the 29th of May which will give you five days to say your goodbyes and pack. We will we gone for a yea...

Fluttershy dropped the note. Tears where coming to her eyes. She flew as fast as she could to Rainbow Dashes, who was also 25 years old.
"Rainbow Dash! Did you get the let....ter.......too...?" Fluttershy saw Rainbow Dash, lying on the ground, crying. I should've known "R.....Rainbow Dash? Are you oka..."

Rainbow Dash jumped into Fluttershy's arms, crying. Fluttershy started crying, too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rainbow Dash finally gathered up the courage to say "So..... We should go te....tell the o...others, right? I will t...tell Applejack and Twilight, you can tell Rarity and Pinkie Pie, okay?" O...Okay." Fluttershy said with no signs of encouragement.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fluttershy went off to Rarities boutique. I better tell Rarity first. I don't want to see Pinkie Pie in tears. "U...Uhm...Rarity? I have something to tell you." Fluttershy said. "Well, whatever is it, dear? You can tell me anything!"

"I...."
"You what?"
"Okay, if you REALLY want to know... (If you have hippopottomanstrasuesquipedaliophobia, the fear of long 'words,' dont read this.)AllOfThePegasiInEquestriaMUSTGoToAPegasusMigrationForAYearInFiveDaysAndIJustWantToSay...Goodbye, Rarity."

Tears where forming in Rarities eyes already. "I....I'm going to miss you, Fluttershy." Rarity choked. "I'll miss you, too!" They both hugged.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rainbow Dash was trotting to Twilight Sparkles tree house. "Hey, Twilight? I have som...." Rainbow Dash started. "I already know. The pegasus migration. I'll miss you and Fluttershy!" Twilight finished.
"Twilight?"
"Yeah?"
"I'll miss you too!"

They both hugged.

Twilight then whispered "Hey, you do know I'm fine with you two going to the migration, right?"
Rainbow said."Yes. Yes I do."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fluttershy walked to Pinkie Pies house, or Sugar Cube Corner, as she, and all of the other ponies in Equestria, call it. Fluttershy walked verry slowly.

When she FINALLY arrived, she asked the Cakes where Pinkie Pie was. "She's upstairs, playing with the twins." Mrs,Cake said. "Pinkie... I have some...." "OH HI, FLUTTERSHY! IT'S REALLY GREAT SEEING YOU!" Pinkie Pie said out of know where. This got Fluttershys hopes 20% lower. "Pinkie Pie, I have something seriou...."
"OOOOH I LOVE SERIOUS THINGS! LIKE T HIS ONE TI..."
PINKIE PIE!" Fluttershy yelled for the first time in 2 years.
"What is it, Fluttershy?"
"Okay, so, I thought I should tell you this now. In five days there's a pegasus migration, and I won't be back for a year, so...Goodbye, Pinkie."

Pinkie Pie was silent. Her hair became flat instantly, and she tried her best to ask, "D....Do you want me to th...throw a Goodbye Party for y...you and Rainb..bow Dash?"
"Anything you want, Pinkie."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rainbow Dash was going to Applejacks barn, or Sweet Apple Acres. Okay, stay strong, Dash. It's going to be hard but...stay strong. "Uhm...Applejack? I need.....to talk to you."
"What is it, Rainbow Dash?"
"I...... Fluttershy and I need to go to something called a pegasus migration and..... I think I will miss you the most!"

Applejack was silent for about 3 seconds, then hugged Rainbow and said, "I'll miss you, too!" She was starting to cry for the first time in her life.

"Hey, Applejack? Do you mind if I take a couple of apples for the trip?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"You can take 100!"
"Wow, AJ. That's...Thank you."

They hugged once more.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FOUR DAYS LATER

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Thanks for the party, Pinkie!" Fluttershy said, trying to sound enthusiastic. "Oh, it's no big deal...." Said a sad Pinkie Pie. They all hugged once more, then Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash left. "Well, I guess this is it." Said Twilight. The all headed to their own houses.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE NEXT DAY

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy where at the edge of a cliff, getting prepared to take flight. (Fluttershy can now fly pretty decently.) "You ready, Flutters?"
"Y....Yes."
"Let's go."

Then they where off.

Derpy was next to Rainbow, and said, "Hey Rainbow? I think I have a letter for you." Rainbow was pretty surprised. "A letter to a 25 year old pegasus in the middle of the migration? Let me see that." She took it from Derpy, and read it while flying. "Dear Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy,." She stopped reading, and headed over to Fluttershy. "We have a letter from Rarity, Applejack, Twilight and Pinkie. It says: Dear Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash,

We miss you very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so much, and hope you are having a wonderful time! inside of the envelope you will find a picture of us writing this letter. And next to that picture you will find a picture of us taking the picture of us writing this letter.

Yours truly,
AJ, Rarity, Twilight and PINKIE!
Oh, and a poem from Pinkie:
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I miss you,
and I can't rhyme.
Refrigerator"

ONE YEAR LATER

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash where back, and they met up with Pinkie and the rest of the mane six for a Welcome Back! party. "WEEEEEEEEEW!" Screamed Pinkie. She seemed kinda........Weirder. "OOOH I LOVE THIS DARK COLOR AND THIS RED COLOR AND THIS WHITE COLOR! THIS IS A CUTE WIN BUT IT'S ALSO A FAIL!!!!"

"It's really good to see yu, again, guys." Applejack said with a big smile on the cowgirls face.
Then they all partied till they where purple. (YAY I LOVE BRING PURPLE!)
