My Little Fluttershyby guywhowritesbadfanficsChaptersWorlds CollideGrowing TreeThe Critical EndWorlds CollideBefore you start reading, I must tell you why there are dashes every now and then within the story, these dashes indicate when the story has skipped a one or a couple days. oh, and this story (or as I prefer "Book") is rushed as I do all my stories on a iPhone, as when I write on a word document I will forget about it the day after, so a phone is more productive to me. Today is a sad day, it's Friday the 13th and it has every right to rain today, I don't care if I get wet. Today I finished reading My Little Dashie and my favourite music teacher was leaving. Yeah I won tickets to the semi-finals of the Olympics in the football Aka Soccer (if you're from the USA) event, but I don't give a flying feather. It's hard to imagine what can make this day better... I'm bummed out about the ending to My Little Dashie and trying my best to withhold my tears. YEAH, call me a wuss all you want, I don't care, if you read it you'd be crying you eyes out. If I could find a pony in a box, I hope it's Derpy or a Dash of my own, or better yet a Rarity or Twilight! But no way is that going to happen, not in a lifetime. The real world sucks... where else can you get magical ponies that do awesome things? My friends are ass hats to me cause I like My Little Pony, they complain and say I talk about it all the time every time I bring it up, but in reality I only bring up the subject of MLP once in a Smurfing moon and when I do bring it up it's only for 5 seconds, but they just have to extend it up to a day long conversation. Anti-bronies, they will one day watch the show and turn to you and say its gay and all I ask is how much did you watch and they always, and I mean ALWAYS, reply with "Only up to the intro, then I turned it off as I didn't like the music and the bit before."... I always get mad at the sound of that... The day is over, and thank god it is, now I have 3 school days left until summer, a wet one and yes the summers in England are wet too, I could make a funny joke now but 1. It's too rude for young people and 2. I can't be bothered on saying anything funny nor happy on a sad day like this. Damn my Autism, if it wasn't for that then I most likely be crying now, but I'll cry at home, on the bus isn't a good place as I'm the oldest and the rest are year 7s, 8s and 9s who bully you on the slightest thing, that's why I have music playing, keep quiet and read my book (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, if you're wondering). So, today is the 2nd to last day to school, as I was running home from the bus I was trying to do 2 things, keep my headphones on because they're the ones that sit in your ears and keep my hood on as it was raining like no tomorrow, when I got home to see if anyone was in, I saw a flash a lightning where I was stood only 15 seconds ago, thank the lord I wasn't still there, and thank the lord that non of the wooden fences caught on fire. Even though I was scared out of my skin but I still went to wave to the bus like normal to tell then they can go and drop off the next person, then I went to investigate cause I saw something in the corner of my eye, the only thing new was a little cardboard box, it wasn't there when I was running home, and I know I didn't see it. After finding this odd box, I decided to take it inside so I can dry off and keep the contents at least dry themselves. I decided I'll keep it to myself for now; either way, I'm going to see The Amazing Spiderman in 3D. After the movie It's 11:26 (according to my clock) and I was getting into bed, the box was still on the floor and I went to bed. Date: Wednesday the 18th Time: 3:52 I wake up to find that I woke up early, so I must have to pee. So I got up and go, I noticed something though... The box, it was open. I didn't open it. Ooooh, please tell me no one came in here while I was sleeping and opened it and took what was inside. Time: 7:13 I pushed the snooze button on my alarm and got up, but as I did, a little yellow furry creature with pink hair asleep on my lap. I looked at it, not moving, after 10 whole seconds I yawned, I (without thinking) let out a little "D'aaaawwwww." As I did, it quickly woke up and looked at me with it's big blue eyes, after looking at me for around 6 seconds it, backed away in fear. It didn't trust me, so I picked it up and held it close to my body, near the heart area, it flapped its wings as fast as it could as if it would fly by some miracle (just like in My Little Dashie). "Shhhhhhh little foal, I'm here to take care of you, feed you and raise you until you get back home, but for now, you're my little fluttershy." she calmed down after feeling the warmth of my body, then when she was calm I put her back on my lap. She smiled at me and walked up to my hands and used her nose to push it, I realised that she wanted a hug. I couldn't believe it, I had my own Fluttershy. But then I realised something, today was the last day of school, I can't bring a pony into school, not even a filly pony that will be able to fly and talk when it's older! But I can't leave it at home because I won't be there to feed her. OH GOSH DARN IT! I didn't feed her last night! She MUST be starving! "you must be starving, let me get you something to eat." I said in a calm voice. When I told her this, her big blue eyes looked at me, and she got a bigger smile, all the way from ear to ear. "I, urrr, I didn't know what you like and we don't have hay so would you do wiiiiiith.... Apples? Bananas? Weetabix (google it if you don't know what they are)?" she tilted her head in confusion at the Weetabix, so I just put the apple, banana and Weetabix in front of her in a line and let her choose, and guess what it was.... Weetabix. I gave her one so it wouldn't be too much for her. She quite enjoyed it, I held out one more and politely said "do you care for another one? Or are you not hungry?" she shook her head, then I realised what was happening, we were communicating, she knew every word that came out my mouth like we knew each other for years on end. I decided to take her to school, but how? I said she would have to stay here but then she almost cried, I could tell, her eyes were going watery and in no way (without a smile) that could be a good thing. One thing I didn't get is how she behaved, she never acted like this in the show, not once. At school I managed to sneak her in via my coat, I didn't go to my friends or on the playground, I went straight in to my form teacher, but I had to make sure she wasn't in a meeting or if anyone else was in the room. It was empty, so that was good. The more I think about this, the more I think that this was a bad idea, but I'm in year 10 so I can't just skip school, I had to bring her in as no one else is at home and plus, she's only a couple of weeks old, what else could I do? "Miss Brunt..." "Yes Luke?" "Is it ok if I give you something to take care of for me? Just for the day" "Sure, what is it?" "Well.. That's the thing..." I put Fluttershy on her desk, she looked at the teacher and backed off a little in fear "Oh.. What is this?" I took a deep breath as I was about to say this. "This will be hard to take in, but... I'm her farther..." After saying that, Fluttershy looked at me as if she was surprised to hear it, because she was, she was happy too, I was her dad now, and no body and no pony will change that. Not now, not ever. Miss hid her in the cupboard where she keeps the phones, 3DSs and other things, I told her if the fire alarm were to go off, I would run to get her. She gave me a big hug after this news and I kissed her on the head. At lunch and breaks I went to feed her, I decided to give the end-of-year disco a miss after someone had a fight in there, I'm also not the disco type. This may sound mean and cruel, but I was disappointed to miss the annual last-day fight, but I was also GLaD to miss it too as he looked really hurt. Anyway, I took this opportunity to spend time with Fluttershy, with the teachers permission of course. After school was over, I was GLaD to spend 6 weeks with my little filly, I wonder if she'd learn to fly, or talk, or better yet, sing. I had my reasons to believe that she could talk to animals, so that was ticked by default. Date: 19th July Today I had a free day off summer activities, so I thought I might spend time with my filly, she wanted to too. We did lots of things, I tickled her, I fed her, I hugged her, I even kissed her good night. It was sad seeing her cry though, it was because I did that thing where you cover your face and go "where's daddy?", I think it's called Peak-A-Boo, I'll just call it that. It was really sad, I had to rock her gently for an hour until she 1. Fell asleep and 2. Stopped crying. Date: 20th July For today, I thought I might just teach her to speak, after wasting my time with that idea, I thought I'll give her a few months before I do. Growing TreeI soon realised that it's been a year since I got my Fluttershy, time seem to be going fast, I only have 15 years until she leaves me. Fluttershy (like in My Little Dashie) seems to know her name as when I said her name for the first time, she responded with a smile and trusted me completely. Every time I let her look outside, she refused. I looked and no one was there, she seemed to not want to see the 'mean, tall monsters' that walk the earth. She seemed to like no one but me, it's as if I was the only living thing she could trust. This means I'll have to be careful with everything, if I loose her trust, she has nothing. She doesn't like anything on tv, I showed her EVERY channel, all but..... I'M SO STUPID!!!! WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF IT BEFORE?!?!? THE NATURE CHANNEL!!! Oh... She... She doesn't like it... SHE LOVES IT!!!!! Why didn't I show her sooner? She found out what an iPhone is for, she asked what the Internet was, I told her it's not a safe thing, it's dangerous and should never look or browse it. Come to think of it, I'm never safe on the Internet. I also put her in the bath, the big one, not a bowl like I used for the past year, but a real bath. Bless her little soul, she was so scared, I told her if she did it, I would take her to Heaton Park to have a roam around the woods. And she loved both the bath and the woods, she even said she wanted to be a tree, so I just replied "well, you'll always be my growing tree." She screamed with glee "I love you , dad" I.... I think my heart just exploded. "I.... I'll never... Ever.... Stop loving you" I lost track of how long we was hugging for after this, but I think it was an hour. It's been 5 years since we have been a happy two-member-family (I don't know if that is a real thing, but it sounds good enough for me), I taught her how to fly, how to talk, I finally bought her some hay (which I had to refund because she preferred Weatabix more then hay) and how to be independent, it was hard to get her the use the Sky remote but she just told me "Where there's a will, there's a way" "Who told you that?" "I learned some things in that school of yours" I smiled at this. I managed to get her to feed herself (once again, hard) how to write, which was surprisingly easy, and got her a new bed instead of that crib she's been sleeping in for 2 years, it was in my room, she didn't want to leave my side, which was the most adorable thing I heard her say. In My Little Dashie, the man taking care of her couldn't watch any more of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, I've tried while Fluttershy was asleep and managed to succeed. But the more I do the more I tell myself that it won't stop her from finding out. I really should tell her about her place of origin when I get a job, move house or (when the time is right) sooner. I FORGOT HER CUTIE MARK!!! She was confused on what it was so asked me to wash it off in the bath, I told her what it was, she was (I never thought I would say this) flabbergasted, for a joke I asked if I should still wash it off (she didn't get it) Well, I can't hide her any longer, things are getting difficult for me to keep Fluttershy, so I decided to do it... the thing I dreaded to do for all these years... I was going to tell my family about her... I don't know how they'll take it, but I hope it goes well... the worst that could happen is that I get sent to a mental hospital. "Mum, dad, I have something to tell you?" "You're gay?" "What? No I-" "It wouldn't be a surprise as you watch a little girls show." "Dad! Shut up, please, you're not helping... anyway, I've been keeping this from you for a long time now... but I'm a dad." my mum and dad sat their "Well, the thing is... I was a dad since I was 15..." "How did you keep this a secret?" "Well, I hid her." mum started to sound a bit upset "Well, this sounds a little unrealistic, why did hide it?" "Well, this is why. Fluttershy, come on out." "Ok Luke, this obsession is getting out of contro-!" Fluttershy trotted in, very shy and very scared, she looked at my parents and stayed close to me "Dad… who are these ponies…?" My parents mouths dropped at the sight of her "Fluttershy, these are my parents. Say hello to them." she looked at them "Um… h-hello…" she put her head into my chest with fear, whimpering "I hope you two take this well, I hope the rest of the family take it the same way too…" I got up and whispered in my parents ears "She doesn't know that she's from a tv show." The last day of summer, the day Fluttershy found out about the show. You may wonder "England has the HUB network?" no, we show it on something called "Boomerang" (603 for Sky customers). I was amazed that she got to watch it on Boomerang, I saw it via Sky Anytime+, never on the channel itself. I was both annoyed and saddened. Annoyed how she saw it live on the channel and saddened how I should have seen it coming. "You knew, didn't you?" "Fluttershy, I... I stopped as Fluttershy started to cry. I decided to sit next to her and stroked her mane "Why didn't you tell me I didn't belong here?" "I was going to tell you tomorrow, but you found out yourself, and I'm sorry..." I started to cry here "...really, really, sorry. You can run away if you want, daddy won't blame you, daddy won't hate you, daddy will understand fully" "R... Run away? Why would I do that? I still love you, you was going to tell me anyway. Yes, I'm really mad at you, but I could never run away from you, where would I go? Where would I sleep? And who could I trust?" we both looked at each other, we smiled, and I told her everything. In My Little Dashie, Dashie ran away from this moment, but I forgot that this isn't Rainbow Dash, this is Fluttershy, and I need to remember that. To say sorry, I thought I would introduce her to the magic of 3D, it hurt her eyes a little but she got use to it, the movies I showed her was TRON: L E G A C Y and The Smurfs Movie. She loved them both and kept asking to see them again and again, but the filly needed her sleep. No, she's not a filly but she will always be one to me, she's about 8 or 10 now, but still, I'm 20 now and my mum still calls me Mr. Mu (Mr. Moo) cos I'm still her little boy, like Fluttershy is my little girl, or... filly. Fluttershy woke me up in the middle of the night crying, I couldn't understand her from the amount of tears she was producing. A few minuets later she told me what happened, I was seriously disappointed with my brother, so I picked up Fluttershy, held her close and calmly went to my mum and dad and told them what happened, Gavin showed her the scary maze game. Yes, I'm 20 and I'm still living with my mum and dad, so does my sister and my brother, and they're older than me! I had to comfort her for the next 3 months because she was that scared from it. Poor tree.... I mean fluttershy, she must be scarred for life, I hope she won't show anyone that. I had to call my uni and tell them my daughter is really upset, it took a while to persuade them to let me take time off, I even had to tell them that she cries in her sleep and wakes up screaming. Gavin (my brother) almost hit her one time. I thought I would hit him before he hit her. After that, I gave Fluttershy a 10 minute lecture about how fighting is bad. The Critical EndAnother 5 years past, Fluttershy turned 15 and I turned 25! It's been great, the best thing was that I was moving out! I graduated Uni and raised enough money to get a house. I'm moving to America where my dream job of being a game maker will come true, I know because Valve accepted me! They heard a lot about a game I want to make and they love it! I got quite famous from making YouTube videos and make a lot of money from it, so that was a job so you may wonder 'Why bother getting a new job?', well, Valve games inspire me, the Portal games are good and Half-Life 2: Episode 3 comes out tomorrow. But enough about Valve, 'how will you take Fluttershy?' you may ask, well from my YouTube videos that got me the money to buy the house I decided to hire a plane, 'oh look at you with your private jet and fancy stuff, you're so awesome' you might say sarcastically because I might be boasting a little but I'm sorry as I'm so existed about moving. "I'm going to miss this place. Do... Do we really have to go?" "Don't worry Fluttershy, my mum and dad will be coming to live with us too after a few days along with our stuff, now take a good long look at this place, and tuck it into bed, and put it into the back of your head." "Ok dad, bye Lucinda," Lucinda is my sister by the way "bye Mis Jasmine," She's my mum "bye Mr. Stephen" He's my dad" and bye Mr. Gavin, I still don't forgive you for playing that trick on, but love you all the same" "Bye mum, bye dad, bye Gav, bye Lu Lu. Visit soon, ok?" we did our good bye hugs and left for the airport. I had trouble getting Fluttershy on without anyone seeing her get on, but we did. After a long sleep on the plain, we was at our new home, San Francisco. We found our house, it was a little small but nice all the same. It had what my mum always wanted, a basement (because hardly any houses in England has basements) and there was so much room, I could use some of the rooms for sets and things. Fluttershy loved her new room, she liked the house, but the weather she did not like. She hated the back garden, it was just flat grass with a pool and the fences people could see over easily. She even hated her first day here, personally so did I. Endless waves of people giving us things and one asked to party, I declined as 1. I didn't want Fluttershy to spend all day in her room and 2. I needed to plan what room would be for what and where my mum and dad would sleep as they are old and I did promises I would take care of them when they get old. I decided to sleep in the same room as Fluttershy for tonight as she hasn't seen me all day, the worst thing was it was raining outside. "I hate it here, I want to go back to England." "Fluttershy, my growing tree, I hated this day more then you did as I had to sort out everything, but in 3 days everything will be in order and sorted. Ok?" "Ok, but i still hate the heat" "Well get use to it as it is always this hot here. Trust me, this isn't my first time here." I woke up in the middle of the night to find that someone ways trying to kidnap my daughter. I chased him down stairs, lucky for me he left his gun on the table, I never fired a gun before but I shot like I was pro by shooting him in his knees and his shoulders, I didn't want to shoot the hands incase I hit Fluttershy but after I shot him he was on the floor, so I got the gun and beat him with the handle until he was out, and out cold, then I phoned the police. "yeah, someone tried to kidnap my daughter in both her and my sleep." after sorting that out I tied him up by putting his ankles and wrist together, I don't know how much trouble this would get me into for using a gun without a license, but I did use it in defence to save my girl and that's ok in my books, maybe not yours but ok in mine, I handed him to the police when they came and they wanted to see Fluttershy to interview her but I said that she doesn't want to talk nor talks for a couple days after something bad like this happens. She talked to them a couple days later via the phone, they couldn't understand her as she was being so quiet, so I talked to them quoting what she said. I hope the guy is happy about almost kidnapping my growing tree as it almost cost him his arms and legs. Well, work was well today, seemed like I thought a job would be like, but it's nothing like uni said, but I think that's because Valve treat there employees differently then other company's, Fluttershy was glad I was home as she was scared I wouldn't return or she would get captured again, but from now on I kept her close. She enjoyed how all our stuff was back, imported from UK to USA. Mum and dad came a little while later too, and they liked their new house and my new salary. Everything was looking good for me and Fluttershy, we still had each other, my game was turning into a success over the 3 years of working at Valve, "I've never seen a game like it!" "It's awesome since you came up with it since the 7 grade!" they kept saying. It was a solo project, so I was working on that while the others was working on Portal 3, Half-Life 3 and Counter Strike: Freedom Fighter. I thought I might add a coopcrowd reference into the game by giving some of the soldiers in my game some of there lines from there videos. Life was perfect with me and Fluttershy, no problems were in our way, we was very honest with each other and I still watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic with her, it stopped at season 8 and replayed from there, which is odd as it even said that in My Little Dashie, which makes me wonder if I'm the only brony in the whole world at this point. It's been two years since I wondered if I was the only brony alive, I put that in my YouTube videos for a joke, and I'm waiting for the day that just isn't coming, Fluttershy's goodbye... Do I get to keep her forever? Will I get to keep my growing tree? I just look at Fluttershy as I stroke her mane while she's asleep on my lap every night... waiting... for the critical end... A year It's been since my last "journal entry", but Fluttershy has never been so happy, and neither have I. We celebrated my birthday a few months back and today we're celebrating her 21st birthday. At mid day when all the presents were open, the doorbell rang. I got up and said "I'll get it!", so I got to the door and opened it. No... Not today, please... It couldn't be like this now, could it? As infront of me was non-other the Celestia, as I saw her, my happy face dropped. My face went went white. All I did is just slowly shake my head side to side and mouthed "no...". She slowly, with a sad face, nodded slowly and said aloud "I'm afrade so...". What else could I do? All I did is just move out of here path and allow her to enter along with the main 5, 6 if they had Fluttershy, the moment I saw Dash I almost cried, she reminded me so much of My Little Dashie. I guided them to the front room, turned off the telivtion and closed the door. "I know why you're here.... And I beg you, please... Don't..." "We have to, and you know it." "JUST ONE MORE DAY!!!! Please, today is her birthday." "I'm afrade we can'...." "OH A PARTY!!! Who wants to play pin the tail on the pony?!?!" "Pinkie, we don't have time for games, maybe when we get Fluttershy the we will, sorry princess, you was saying?" "Thank you my student. Anyway, we don't have anytime to waste, so this is your..." I didn't hear what she was saying, I couldn't stop looking at Dash. "...Are you even listening to me?!" "What? Sorry Celestia, but Dash doesn't seem right, is it ok if I talk to her for a little bit? Please?" "Fine, but then we have to do it, understand?" "I understand, Celestia." I opened the door and gestured to Dash to leave the room with me, which she did. "What's wrong? You look like this is bringing back horrible memories" she started to cry, poor thing. "Cos it does, I lived this moment and re-live it every night in my sleep... It's painful and makes me wake up screaming just one word....." "What is it Dashie?" "....Dad.... I wake up screaming the word Dad... Ok? I miss him so much, I just can't forget him. I want to see him again. I'm glad Fluttershy had to live with a kind man like you." and by surprise, she hugged me and hugged me tight, she cried more on my shoulder then ever now. A little later I went back into the room and sat in front of Fluttershy and told her everything and why it was happening. Some of her friends helped "....and then you was gone! We missed you so much sugarcube!" "So I'm about to give you a memory spell that will give you back all your memories. Hope you understand" "I... I understand, but when will dad get to see me again?" there was a silence for a good 3 minutes. "That's the thing Fluttershy... I can't see you again... ever..." and here come the water works. "Wh... What? Why not?" "Well, you.... You don't belong in this world, you belong with these creatures that look more like your type of species. Like I told you many years ago when you found out you was from a tv show, you are a pony. You belong with these other ponies." "But... I trust and love you with my life, you must come with me, you must! Please Miss... Um..." "Princess Celestia" "Thanks, please let him come with me! Please!" "I'm sorry Fluttershy, but you need to come with us, to your home in..." "THIS IS MY HOME!!!!" Fluttershy started to cry even more at this point. "WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I WANT TO STAAAAAaaaaayyyyy?!?!?!?!" there was a 3 second silence, the only sound ways Fluttershy crying. "I am so sorry Princess, I have no idea what got over her, she has never acted like this for the 16 years I..." "I beg your pardon, but did you say 16 years? 'Cos she's been missing for 16 days." "Yeah, your days are my years, anyway, she never acted that way. Ever." "Well Fluttershy is just in a bad mood, how about a party?!?!?" "Pinkie, you came when we was having a party, a birthday party." "Oh, well no wonder she's cranky!" /)_- I honestly face-palmed at this point. I really wanted to yell NO SH... I'll stop there. After a while of Fluttershy calming down and learning to let go, she was ready to go. "Twilight, if you would do the honours please." "Gladly and woefully." Twilight's horn began to glow, and she started slowly walking to Fluttershy. I think everypony in the room was crying a little, I know I was, but Dash seemed to be crying a lot more. Wait...... Why is she crying a lot more then everypony else? Is.... Is My Little Dashie based on a true story? Is Dashie remembering what she was put through? I had a bit of time to ask what was wrong as Twilight was kinda milking it with the walking speed, I swear one pony yawned. "What's wrong Dashie?" "Don't call me that! My dad only has a right to call me that!" "Dash, I know what you went through." "No you don't!" "Let me show you something..." ".....fine, but make it quick." I took her to the tv, opened the draw underneath the tv, and took out a 23 paged book made of nothing but A4 paper. It had an image of rainbow dash hugging a weird looking pony, with fingers and... It wasn't a pony, it was a man, she was hugging a man, she was hugging her dad. "He... He wrote a book... About me?" "He wrote a book about the greatest 15 years of his life, and it was spent with you. Now you look me in the eyes and say that I don't know what you was put through..." she looked me in the eyes and opened her mouth "You know what I was put though, and I feel sorry you will have to too." I looked at Dash, picked her up and stroked her mane, we both watch Twilight go to Fluttershy, she was so close... "WAIT!!! Celestia, may I talk to you in private?" What the heck is happening?!?! Why did I ask to talk to Celestia in private? "Twilight, stay where you are, I'll talk to Mr.... I'm sorry what was your name again?" "Luke, Luke Mathaüs Sullivan-Corbelle" the last e in Corbelle is silent by the way. "Right, let's talk Mr. Luke." I walked out the room with Celestia, I went to my bedroom and I turned to Celestia. "I am so sorry Princess, I don't know what happened, my mind just said it and..." "Your mind made you say it? Huh, well, how about you let it talk then." She put her horn on my head and it started to glow. I found my self yelling, begging. "Please let me come with you! Yeah I have a nice job and lots of money but I'd give up anything and I mean ANYTHING to spend my life with Fluttershy and live in your world! I love it! Take me with you, your world is everything this world should be! You have real magic, we have fake magic. We predict the weather, you make the weather! We're trying to make the world perfect, your world IS perfect! Just please pleeeeaaaase take me with you, I beg you! Get me out of this world where everyone is the same and get easily stuck in an never ending routine that plans their day! It's always get up, go to work, go home, go to bed and repeat. With your world it's get up, LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST, go to bed and repeat. And your some of you pony-tales have a possibility of being true! Pleeeeeaaaaassssseeee take me with you!!!!" I shorty could control everything to do with my body, I could control my eyelids which were closed for some reason and my whole body, oh... I was in the begging pose... I slowly got up and straitened my cloths" I am so sorry Celestia, what made my brain say that?" "Me of course." "Oh, well sorry about making a fool of my self" after 10 minutes of talking, we walked back in the room, I just looked at Celestia and put my hands behind my back, she stared at me and nodded once, I nodded once back. "Ahem, me and mr. Sullivan have come to an agreement, that Fluttershy should go to the pony world and join her friends, as friendship is more important then family." "Friendship is also like family when you think about it." "Very well thought Mr. Sullivan." "Thank you. Twilight, would you again do the honers?" "Woefully Mr. Sullivan" "Just call me Luke, it'll be easier. Oh, and go a little faster then last time or the dramatic and sad mement will be ruined." and without interruption, I let Twilight do her job, she slowly went up to Fluttershy, I don't know if she will remember me or not, but I hope she has some memories of me so she knows that someone out there loves her, and will do anything for her. As Twilight was getting closer, the more I could remember everything, but it was going in reverse, from now to the very begining, as Twilight got really close to Fluttershy to give her back her old memories, I saw it... The moment which made me want to run up to her and give her the biggest hug of my life... The moment where I wanted to grab my hair and rip it clean off my head... The moment that made me loose my vision from the amount of tears coming from my eyes... I saw her... The way I first saw her, the way it all started.... And thats when time stopped. Literetly, something made it stop, but I didn't care. "What's wrong? Why are you crying so much?" said a gentle, loving voice "It's her... She looks like the way I found her, she looks so young, so cute, yet... So lost, but at home... Just let it end right now... JUST LET IT ENNNnnnnd" I leaned on the wall and slid down it slowly and put my head on my knees "Unless you have something you want to do or say, just end it...". And without another word, she replayed time, but it moved slowly, this wasn't from Celestia. But as time moved slowly, the foul Fluttershy looked at me, and I looked at her back. She opened her mouth and said..... "I love you dad" I just stared back and said "I love you too... my growing tree... and I will never forget you..." "neither will I daddy, I'll always love you". And it was over. A big white light let me know it was... I still could remember her, and I was still crying my eyes out. "Luke? Are you ok? Why are you crying?" "Fluttershy's gone mum, she's gone... To her friends in ponyville, and I don't know if she will remember me or not... But I hope she's happy with her life..." "Fluttershy? You're crying as if you spent most your life with her and had to let her go. You really need to stop watching My Little Pony." My mum put me on the couch and gave me some milk. She was gone from my mum and dads mind, Celestia didn't let them keep there memorise of her. "wait..." I ran upstairs to Fluttershy's room, nothing but a bed. I guess it was the guest room. "Luke! Come here!" I went downstairs and saw that mum was holding a book, I went up to her and asked to hold it, it was a memory book. Me and Fluttershy was in it. "Celestia.... you kind pony." I took it and went to put it on the top of a high book shelf, a piece of paper fell out of it. I picked it up and read it in my mind "Dear dad, these 16 years have been great. I learned so many things that my friends would love to hear about. I hope I never forget you as I couldn't have asked for a better dad, I may never see you again, but everyday I'll live life to the fullest for us both. Love from... Your growing tree..." I got soft, gentle tears running down my cheeks and drank the milk mum gave me. Epilogue Today is Friday the 13th, the day 6 ponies entered my house though the front door, and 7 left through no doors but instead used magic. The day I found a little creature, gave it some family love, raised it and called it my own. The day I still celebrate a ponies birthday for, even though they are not around anymore. The day I made a promise to live each day to the fullest for that creature I raised, I cared for, I called my daughter, I call her my growing tree, but sometimes I call her... My Little Fluttershy. I decided I'll live wild tomorrow, but now was bedtime. I go to my bed room after a shower and go in the dresser that stores my cloths to put on some pjs, it seemed bright for the middle of the night cause there was a light at the back of my dresser and.... Wait... I don't have a light in my dresser.... I moved some cloths to look closer, and I got to the light... I poked my head in it, then blackness. I woke up later to some excited screaming "DADDY DADDY DADDY DADDY DADDY!!!!!" "Fluttershy, quit screaming, I'm trying to sleep...." I said as I was really tired. Then I fully woke up from realisation of what was going on, I was in Fluttershy's house. "FLUTTERSHY!!!!" I gave her the biggest hug that I ever gave anything in my life. "DADDY!!! I never thought I would see you again!!!" That's when Fluttershy's door opened and what would you know, some royal guards were stood there. Me and Fluttershy stared at them in fear "Fluttershy, what's happening?" "I don't know daddy" "Ahem! Princess Celestia would like to see both of you, immediately." I don't like the sound of that, but when we got there Celestia looked dis-pleased. "Mr. Luke Mathaüs Sullivan-Corbelle, you have come here to Equestria to do what?" "To live with my daughter. To be honest too, I saw a White light in the back of my dresser so I didn't think I would be visiting" "Well you should of! Don't you remember the agreement we had?" "I do, daddy let me go to ponyville to be with my friends" "Also I could come and see my daughter at anytime I wanted and still live my normal life outside of ponyville and Equestria." "Wh... What? And you didn't tell me dad?" "Sorry, happy birthday I suppose?" "Oh shoot! It's my birthday today! I should be returning to ponyville and get back to the party!" "We moved it here ages ago, so enjoy your party little one." "Thank you Celestia" "Oh, and Luke, you can't walk around Equestria like that, here." she put her horn on my head and I felt odd, it's like that feeling you get when you feel shorter but you're still the same size. Celestia gave me a mirror and showed me what I looked like. My dream pony, I looked like him! My creation! My Cutie Mark was a person holding a little yellow creature, showing that my special talent is being a farther, after looking at my pony, I went to Fluttershy's party. The guys were surprised to see me there, and the celebrated even more. All but Rainbow Dash... It was more obvious she was upset as everyone in the room was happy. I thought I would slip out the room without telling anypony and talk to Celestia. 1 Hour later, the doors to Fluttershy's birthday party opened, everypony went quiet and stared at me and the person I was with. Dash looked at him, the man and slowly walked to him and stopped in front of him. "Daddy?" "Dashie?" they looked at each other, and smiled, and they hugged each other and didn't let go. "I missed you so much dad..." "I missed you too Dashie..." I sniffed here "Somepony get me a tissue.... This is very touching when you know what happened before this." Shortly after the party continued, Dash's dad made the same agreement as I did, Dash was reunited with her dad, I got to be a pony, and everypony was happy. Both me and... My Little Fluttershy.
Worlds CollideBefore you start reading, I must tell you why there are dashes every now and then within the story, these dashes indicate when the story has skipped a one or a couple days. oh, and this story (or as I prefer "Book") is rushed as I do all my stories on a iPhone, as when I write on a word document I will forget about it the day after, so a phone is more productive to me. Today is a sad day, it's Friday the 13th and it has every right to rain today, I don't care if I get wet. Today I finished reading My Little Dashie and my favourite music teacher was leaving. Yeah I won tickets to the semi-finals of the Olympics in the football Aka Soccer (if you're from the USA) event, but I don't give a flying feather. It's hard to imagine what can make this day better... I'm bummed out about the ending to My Little Dashie and trying my best to withhold my tears. YEAH, call me a wuss all you want, I don't care, if you read it you'd be crying you eyes out. If I could find a pony in a box, I hope it's Derpy or a Dash of my own, or better yet a Rarity or Twilight! But no way is that going to happen, not in a lifetime. The real world sucks... where else can you get magical ponies that do awesome things? My friends are ass hats to me cause I like My Little Pony, they complain and say I talk about it all the time every time I bring it up, but in reality I only bring up the subject of MLP once in a Smurfing moon and when I do bring it up it's only for 5 seconds, but they just have to extend it up to a day long conversation. Anti-bronies, they will one day watch the show and turn to you and say its gay and all I ask is how much did you watch and they always, and I mean ALWAYS, reply with "Only up to the intro, then I turned it off as I didn't like the music and the bit before."... I always get mad at the sound of that... The day is over, and thank god it is, now I have 3 school days left until summer, a wet one and yes the summers in England are wet too, I could make a funny joke now but 1. It's too rude for young people and 2. I can't be bothered on saying anything funny nor happy on a sad day like this. Damn my Autism, if it wasn't for that then I most likely be crying now, but I'll cry at home, on the bus isn't a good place as I'm the oldest and the rest are year 7s, 8s and 9s who bully you on the slightest thing, that's why I have music playing, keep quiet and read my book (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, if you're wondering). So, today is the 2nd to last day to school, as I was running home from the bus I was trying to do 2 things, keep my headphones on because they're the ones that sit in your ears and keep my hood on as it was raining like no tomorrow, when I got home to see if anyone was in, I saw a flash a lightning where I was stood only 15 seconds ago, thank the lord I wasn't still there, and thank the lord that non of the wooden fences caught on fire. Even though I was scared out of my skin but I still went to wave to the bus like normal to tell then they can go and drop off the next person, then I went to investigate cause I saw something in the corner of my eye, the only thing new was a little cardboard box, it wasn't there when I was running home, and I know I didn't see it. After finding this odd box, I decided to take it inside so I can dry off and keep the contents at least dry themselves. I decided I'll keep it to myself for now; either way, I'm going to see The Amazing Spiderman in 3D. After the movie It's 11:26 (according to my clock) and I was getting into bed, the box was still on the floor and I went to bed. Date: Wednesday the 18th Time: 3:52 I wake up to find that I woke up early, so I must have to pee. So I got up and go, I noticed something though... The box, it was open. I didn't open it. Ooooh, please tell me no one came in here while I was sleeping and opened it and took what was inside. Time: 7:13 I pushed the snooze button on my alarm and got up, but as I did, a little yellow furry creature with pink hair asleep on my lap. I looked at it, not moving, after 10 whole seconds I yawned, I (without thinking) let out a little "D'aaaawwwww." As I did, it quickly woke up and looked at me with it's big blue eyes, after looking at me for around 6 seconds it, backed away in fear. It didn't trust me, so I picked it up and held it close to my body, near the heart area, it flapped its wings as fast as it could as if it would fly by some miracle (just like in My Little Dashie). "Shhhhhhh little foal, I'm here to take care of you, feed you and raise you until you get back home, but for now, you're my little fluttershy." she calmed down after feeling the warmth of my body, then when she was calm I put her back on my lap. She smiled at me and walked up to my hands and used her nose to push it, I realised that she wanted a hug. I couldn't believe it, I had my own Fluttershy. But then I realised something, today was the last day of school, I can't bring a pony into school, not even a filly pony that will be able to fly and talk when it's older! But I can't leave it at home because I won't be there to feed her. OH GOSH DARN IT! I didn't feed her last night! She MUST be starving! "you must be starving, let me get you something to eat." I said in a calm voice. When I told her this, her big blue eyes looked at me, and she got a bigger smile, all the way from ear to ear. "I, urrr, I didn't know what you like and we don't have hay so would you do wiiiiiith.... Apples? Bananas? Weetabix (google it if you don't know what they are)?" she tilted her head in confusion at the Weetabix, so I just put the apple, banana and Weetabix in front of her in a line and let her choose, and guess what it was.... Weetabix. I gave her one so it wouldn't be too much for her. She quite enjoyed it, I held out one more and politely said "do you care for another one? Or are you not hungry?" she shook her head, then I realised what was happening, we were communicating, she knew every word that came out my mouth like we knew each other for years on end. I decided to take her to school, but how? I said she would have to stay here but then she almost cried, I could tell, her eyes were going watery and in no way (without a smile) that could be a good thing. One thing I didn't get is how she behaved, she never acted like this in the show, not once. At school I managed to sneak her in via my coat, I didn't go to my friends or on the playground, I went straight in to my form teacher, but I had to make sure she wasn't in a meeting or if anyone else was in the room. It was empty, so that was good. The more I think about this, the more I think that this was a bad idea, but I'm in year 10 so I can't just skip school, I had to bring her in as no one else is at home and plus, she's only a couple of weeks old, what else could I do? "Miss Brunt..." "Yes Luke?" "Is it ok if I give you something to take care of for me? Just for the day" "Sure, what is it?" "Well.. That's the thing..." I put Fluttershy on her desk, she looked at the teacher and backed off a little in fear "Oh.. What is this?" I took a deep breath as I was about to say this. "This will be hard to take in, but... I'm her farther..." After saying that, Fluttershy looked at me as if she was surprised to hear it, because she was, she was happy too, I was her dad now, and no body and no pony will change that. Not now, not ever. Miss hid her in the cupboard where she keeps the phones, 3DSs and other things, I told her if the fire alarm were to go off, I would run to get her. She gave me a big hug after this news and I kissed her on the head. At lunch and breaks I went to feed her, I decided to give the end-of-year disco a miss after someone had a fight in there, I'm also not the disco type. This may sound mean and cruel, but I was disappointed to miss the annual last-day fight, but I was also GLaD to miss it too as he looked really hurt. Anyway, I took this opportunity to spend time with Fluttershy, with the teachers permission of course. After school was over, I was GLaD to spend 6 weeks with my little filly, I wonder if she'd learn to fly, or talk, or better yet, sing. I had my reasons to believe that she could talk to animals, so that was ticked by default. Date: 19th July Today I had a free day off summer activities, so I thought I might spend time with my filly, she wanted to too. We did lots of things, I tickled her, I fed her, I hugged her, I even kissed her good night. It was sad seeing her cry though, it was because I did that thing where you cover your face and go "where's daddy?", I think it's called Peak-A-Boo, I'll just call it that. It was really sad, I had to rock her gently for an hour until she 1. Fell asleep and 2. Stopped crying. Date: 20th July For today, I thought I might just teach her to speak, after wasting my time with that idea, I thought I'll give her a few months before I do.
Growing TreeI soon realised that it's been a year since I got my Fluttershy, time seem to be going fast, I only have 15 years until she leaves me. Fluttershy (like in My Little Dashie) seems to know her name as when I said her name for the first time, she responded with a smile and trusted me completely. Every time I let her look outside, she refused. I looked and no one was there, she seemed to not want to see the 'mean, tall monsters' that walk the earth. She seemed to like no one but me, it's as if I was the only living thing she could trust. This means I'll have to be careful with everything, if I loose her trust, she has nothing. She doesn't like anything on tv, I showed her EVERY channel, all but..... I'M SO STUPID!!!! WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF IT BEFORE?!?!? THE NATURE CHANNEL!!! Oh... She... She doesn't like it... SHE LOVES IT!!!!! Why didn't I show her sooner? She found out what an iPhone is for, she asked what the Internet was, I told her it's not a safe thing, it's dangerous and should never look or browse it. Come to think of it, I'm never safe on the Internet. I also put her in the bath, the big one, not a bowl like I used for the past year, but a real bath. Bless her little soul, she was so scared, I told her if she did it, I would take her to Heaton Park to have a roam around the woods. And she loved both the bath and the woods, she even said she wanted to be a tree, so I just replied "well, you'll always be my growing tree." She screamed with glee "I love you , dad" I.... I think my heart just exploded. "I.... I'll never... Ever.... Stop loving you" I lost track of how long we was hugging for after this, but I think it was an hour. It's been 5 years since we have been a happy two-member-family (I don't know if that is a real thing, but it sounds good enough for me), I taught her how to fly, how to talk, I finally bought her some hay (which I had to refund because she preferred Weatabix more then hay) and how to be independent, it was hard to get her the use the Sky remote but she just told me "Where there's a will, there's a way" "Who told you that?" "I learned some things in that school of yours" I smiled at this. I managed to get her to feed herself (once again, hard) how to write, which was surprisingly easy, and got her a new bed instead of that crib she's been sleeping in for 2 years, it was in my room, she didn't want to leave my side, which was the most adorable thing I heard her say. In My Little Dashie, the man taking care of her couldn't watch any more of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, I've tried while Fluttershy was asleep and managed to succeed. But the more I do the more I tell myself that it won't stop her from finding out. I really should tell her about her place of origin when I get a job, move house or (when the time is right) sooner. I FORGOT HER CUTIE MARK!!! She was confused on what it was so asked me to wash it off in the bath, I told her what it was, she was (I never thought I would say this) flabbergasted, for a joke I asked if I should still wash it off (she didn't get it) Well, I can't hide her any longer, things are getting difficult for me to keep Fluttershy, so I decided to do it... the thing I dreaded to do for all these years... I was going to tell my family about her... I don't know how they'll take it, but I hope it goes well... the worst that could happen is that I get sent to a mental hospital. "Mum, dad, I have something to tell you?" "You're gay?" "What? No I-" "It wouldn't be a surprise as you watch a little girls show." "Dad! Shut up, please, you're not helping... anyway, I've been keeping this from you for a long time now... but I'm a dad." my mum and dad sat their "Well, the thing is... I was a dad since I was 15..." "How did you keep this a secret?" "Well, I hid her." mum started to sound a bit upset "Well, this sounds a little unrealistic, why did hide it?" "Well, this is why. Fluttershy, come on out." "Ok Luke, this obsession is getting out of contro-!" Fluttershy trotted in, very shy and very scared, she looked at my parents and stayed close to me "Dad… who are these ponies…?" My parents mouths dropped at the sight of her "Fluttershy, these are my parents. Say hello to them." she looked at them "Um… h-hello…" she put her head into my chest with fear, whimpering "I hope you two take this well, I hope the rest of the family take it the same way too…" I got up and whispered in my parents ears "She doesn't know that she's from a tv show." The last day of summer, the day Fluttershy found out about the show. You may wonder "England has the HUB network?" no, we show it on something called "Boomerang" (603 for Sky customers). I was amazed that she got to watch it on Boomerang, I saw it via Sky Anytime+, never on the channel itself. I was both annoyed and saddened. Annoyed how she saw it live on the channel and saddened how I should have seen it coming. "You knew, didn't you?" "Fluttershy, I... I stopped as Fluttershy started to cry. I decided to sit next to her and stroked her mane "Why didn't you tell me I didn't belong here?" "I was going to tell you tomorrow, but you found out yourself, and I'm sorry..." I started to cry here "...really, really, sorry. You can run away if you want, daddy won't blame you, daddy won't hate you, daddy will understand fully" "R... Run away? Why would I do that? I still love you, you was going to tell me anyway. Yes, I'm really mad at you, but I could never run away from you, where would I go? Where would I sleep? And who could I trust?" we both looked at each other, we smiled, and I told her everything. In My Little Dashie, Dashie ran away from this moment, but I forgot that this isn't Rainbow Dash, this is Fluttershy, and I need to remember that. To say sorry, I thought I would introduce her to the magic of 3D, it hurt her eyes a little but she got use to it, the movies I showed her was TRON: L E G A C Y and The Smurfs Movie. She loved them both and kept asking to see them again and again, but the filly needed her sleep. No, she's not a filly but she will always be one to me, she's about 8 or 10 now, but still, I'm 20 now and my mum still calls me Mr. Mu (Mr. Moo) cos I'm still her little boy, like Fluttershy is my little girl, or... filly. Fluttershy woke me up in the middle of the night crying, I couldn't understand her from the amount of tears she was producing. A few minuets later she told me what happened, I was seriously disappointed with my brother, so I picked up Fluttershy, held her close and calmly went to my mum and dad and told them what happened, Gavin showed her the scary maze game. Yes, I'm 20 and I'm still living with my mum and dad, so does my sister and my brother, and they're older than me! I had to comfort her for the next 3 months because she was that scared from it. Poor tree.... I mean fluttershy, she must be scarred for life, I hope she won't show anyone that. I had to call my uni and tell them my daughter is really upset, it took a while to persuade them to let me take time off, I even had to tell them that she cries in her sleep and wakes up screaming. Gavin (my brother) almost hit her one time. I thought I would hit him before he hit her. After that, I gave Fluttershy a 10 minute lecture about how fighting is bad.
The Critical EndAnother 5 years past, Fluttershy turned 15 and I turned 25! It's been great, the best thing was that I was moving out! I graduated Uni and raised enough money to get a house. I'm moving to America where my dream job of being a game maker will come true, I know because Valve accepted me! They heard a lot about a game I want to make and they love it! I got quite famous from making YouTube videos and make a lot of money from it, so that was a job so you may wonder 'Why bother getting a new job?', well, Valve games inspire me, the Portal games are good and Half-Life 2: Episode 3 comes out tomorrow. But enough about Valve, 'how will you take Fluttershy?' you may ask, well from my YouTube videos that got me the money to buy the house I decided to hire a plane, 'oh look at you with your private jet and fancy stuff, you're so awesome' you might say sarcastically because I might be boasting a little but I'm sorry as I'm so existed about moving. "I'm going to miss this place. Do... Do we really have to go?" "Don't worry Fluttershy, my mum and dad will be coming to live with us too after a few days along with our stuff, now take a good long look at this place, and tuck it into bed, and put it into the back of your head." "Ok dad, bye Lucinda," Lucinda is my sister by the way "bye Mis Jasmine," She's my mum "bye Mr. Stephen" He's my dad" and bye Mr. Gavin, I still don't forgive you for playing that trick on, but love you all the same" "Bye mum, bye dad, bye Gav, bye Lu Lu. Visit soon, ok?" we did our good bye hugs and left for the airport. I had trouble getting Fluttershy on without anyone seeing her get on, but we did. After a long sleep on the plain, we was at our new home, San Francisco. We found our house, it was a little small but nice all the same. It had what my mum always wanted, a basement (because hardly any houses in England has basements) and there was so much room, I could use some of the rooms for sets and things. Fluttershy loved her new room, she liked the house, but the weather she did not like. She hated the back garden, it was just flat grass with a pool and the fences people could see over easily. She even hated her first day here, personally so did I. Endless waves of people giving us things and one asked to party, I declined as 1. I didn't want Fluttershy to spend all day in her room and 2. I needed to plan what room would be for what and where my mum and dad would sleep as they are old and I did promises I would take care of them when they get old. I decided to sleep in the same room as Fluttershy for tonight as she hasn't seen me all day, the worst thing was it was raining outside. "I hate it here, I want to go back to England." "Fluttershy, my growing tree, I hated this day more then you did as I had to sort out everything, but in 3 days everything will be in order and sorted. Ok?" "Ok, but i still hate the heat" "Well get use to it as it is always this hot here. Trust me, this isn't my first time here." I woke up in the middle of the night to find that someone ways trying to kidnap my daughter. I chased him down stairs, lucky for me he left his gun on the table, I never fired a gun before but I shot like I was pro by shooting him in his knees and his shoulders, I didn't want to shoot the hands incase I hit Fluttershy but after I shot him he was on the floor, so I got the gun and beat him with the handle until he was out, and out cold, then I phoned the police. "yeah, someone tried to kidnap my daughter in both her and my sleep." after sorting that out I tied him up by putting his ankles and wrist together, I don't know how much trouble this would get me into for using a gun without a license, but I did use it in defence to save my girl and that's ok in my books, maybe not yours but ok in mine, I handed him to the police when they came and they wanted to see Fluttershy to interview her but I said that she doesn't want to talk nor talks for a couple days after something bad like this happens. She talked to them a couple days later via the phone, they couldn't understand her as she was being so quiet, so I talked to them quoting what she said. I hope the guy is happy about almost kidnapping my growing tree as it almost cost him his arms and legs. Well, work was well today, seemed like I thought a job would be like, but it's nothing like uni said, but I think that's because Valve treat there employees differently then other company's, Fluttershy was glad I was home as she was scared I wouldn't return or she would get captured again, but from now on I kept her close. She enjoyed how all our stuff was back, imported from UK to USA. Mum and dad came a little while later too, and they liked their new house and my new salary. Everything was looking good for me and Fluttershy, we still had each other, my game was turning into a success over the 3 years of working at Valve, "I've never seen a game like it!" "It's awesome since you came up with it since the 7 grade!" they kept saying. It was a solo project, so I was working on that while the others was working on Portal 3, Half-Life 3 and Counter Strike: Freedom Fighter. I thought I might add a coopcrowd reference into the game by giving some of the soldiers in my game some of there lines from there videos. Life was perfect with me and Fluttershy, no problems were in our way, we was very honest with each other and I still watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic with her, it stopped at season 8 and replayed from there, which is odd as it even said that in My Little Dashie, which makes me wonder if I'm the only brony in the whole world at this point. It's been two years since I wondered if I was the only brony alive, I put that in my YouTube videos for a joke, and I'm waiting for the day that just isn't coming, Fluttershy's goodbye... Do I get to keep her forever? Will I get to keep my growing tree? I just look at Fluttershy as I stroke her mane while she's asleep on my lap every night... waiting... for the critical end... A year It's been since my last "journal entry", but Fluttershy has never been so happy, and neither have I. We celebrated my birthday a few months back and today we're celebrating her 21st birthday. At mid day when all the presents were open, the doorbell rang. I got up and said "I'll get it!", so I got to the door and opened it. No... Not today, please... It couldn't be like this now, could it? As infront of me was non-other the Celestia, as I saw her, my happy face dropped. My face went went white. All I did is just slowly shake my head side to side and mouthed "no...". She slowly, with a sad face, nodded slowly and said aloud "I'm afrade so...". What else could I do? All I did is just move out of here path and allow her to enter along with the main 5, 6 if they had Fluttershy, the moment I saw Dash I almost cried, she reminded me so much of My Little Dashie. I guided them to the front room, turned off the telivtion and closed the door. "I know why you're here.... And I beg you, please... Don't..." "We have to, and you know it." "JUST ONE MORE DAY!!!! Please, today is her birthday." "I'm afrade we can'...." "OH A PARTY!!! Who wants to play pin the tail on the pony?!?!" "Pinkie, we don't have time for games, maybe when we get Fluttershy the we will, sorry princess, you was saying?" "Thank you my student. Anyway, we don't have anytime to waste, so this is your..." I didn't hear what she was saying, I couldn't stop looking at Dash. "...Are you even listening to me?!" "What? Sorry Celestia, but Dash doesn't seem right, is it ok if I talk to her for a little bit? Please?" "Fine, but then we have to do it, understand?" "I understand, Celestia." I opened the door and gestured to Dash to leave the room with me, which she did. "What's wrong? You look like this is bringing back horrible memories" she started to cry, poor thing. "Cos it does, I lived this moment and re-live it every night in my sleep... It's painful and makes me wake up screaming just one word....." "What is it Dashie?" "....Dad.... I wake up screaming the word Dad... Ok? I miss him so much, I just can't forget him. I want to see him again. I'm glad Fluttershy had to live with a kind man like you." and by surprise, she hugged me and hugged me tight, she cried more on my shoulder then ever now. A little later I went back into the room and sat in front of Fluttershy and told her everything and why it was happening. Some of her friends helped "....and then you was gone! We missed you so much sugarcube!" "So I'm about to give you a memory spell that will give you back all your memories. Hope you understand" "I... I understand, but when will dad get to see me again?" there was a silence for a good 3 minutes. "That's the thing Fluttershy... I can't see you again... ever..." and here come the water works. "Wh... What? Why not?" "Well, you.... You don't belong in this world, you belong with these creatures that look more like your type of species. Like I told you many years ago when you found out you was from a tv show, you are a pony. You belong with these other ponies." "But... I trust and love you with my life, you must come with me, you must! Please Miss... Um..." "Princess Celestia" "Thanks, please let him come with me! Please!" "I'm sorry Fluttershy, but you need to come with us, to your home in..." "THIS IS MY HOME!!!!" Fluttershy started to cry even more at this point. "WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I WANT TO STAAAAAaaaaayyyyy?!?!?!?!" there was a 3 second silence, the only sound ways Fluttershy crying. "I am so sorry Princess, I have no idea what got over her, she has never acted like this for the 16 years I..." "I beg your pardon, but did you say 16 years? 'Cos she's been missing for 16 days." "Yeah, your days are my years, anyway, she never acted that way. Ever." "Well Fluttershy is just in a bad mood, how about a party?!?!?" "Pinkie, you came when we was having a party, a birthday party." "Oh, well no wonder she's cranky!" /)_- I honestly face-palmed at this point. I really wanted to yell NO SH... I'll stop there. After a while of Fluttershy calming down and learning to let go, she was ready to go. "Twilight, if you would do the honours please." "Gladly and woefully." Twilight's horn began to glow, and she started slowly walking to Fluttershy. I think everypony in the room was crying a little, I know I was, but Dash seemed to be crying a lot more. Wait...... Why is she crying a lot more then everypony else? Is.... Is My Little Dashie based on a true story? Is Dashie remembering what she was put through? I had a bit of time to ask what was wrong as Twilight was kinda milking it with the walking speed, I swear one pony yawned. "What's wrong Dashie?" "Don't call me that! My dad only has a right to call me that!" "Dash, I know what you went through." "No you don't!" "Let me show you something..." ".....fine, but make it quick." I took her to the tv, opened the draw underneath the tv, and took out a 23 paged book made of nothing but A4 paper. It had an image of rainbow dash hugging a weird looking pony, with fingers and... It wasn't a pony, it was a man, she was hugging a man, she was hugging her dad. "He... He wrote a book... About me?" "He wrote a book about the greatest 15 years of his life, and it was spent with you. Now you look me in the eyes and say that I don't know what you was put through..." she looked me in the eyes and opened her mouth "You know what I was put though, and I feel sorry you will have to too." I looked at Dash, picked her up and stroked her mane, we both watch Twilight go to Fluttershy, she was so close... "WAIT!!! Celestia, may I talk to you in private?" What the heck is happening?!?! Why did I ask to talk to Celestia in private? "Twilight, stay where you are, I'll talk to Mr.... I'm sorry what was your name again?" "Luke, Luke Mathaüs Sullivan-Corbelle" the last e in Corbelle is silent by the way. "Right, let's talk Mr. Luke." I walked out the room with Celestia, I went to my bedroom and I turned to Celestia. "I am so sorry Princess, I don't know what happened, my mind just said it and..." "Your mind made you say it? Huh, well, how about you let it talk then." She put her horn on my head and it started to glow. I found my self yelling, begging. "Please let me come with you! Yeah I have a nice job and lots of money but I'd give up anything and I mean ANYTHING to spend my life with Fluttershy and live in your world! I love it! Take me with you, your world is everything this world should be! You have real magic, we have fake magic. We predict the weather, you make the weather! We're trying to make the world perfect, your world IS perfect! Just please pleeeeaaaase take me with you, I beg you! Get me out of this world where everyone is the same and get easily stuck in an never ending routine that plans their day! It's always get up, go to work, go home, go to bed and repeat. With your world it's get up, LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST, go to bed and repeat. And your some of you pony-tales have a possibility of being true! Pleeeeeaaaaassssseeee take me with you!!!!" I shorty could control everything to do with my body, I could control my eyelids which were closed for some reason and my whole body, oh... I was in the begging pose... I slowly got up and straitened my cloths" I am so sorry Celestia, what made my brain say that?" "Me of course." "Oh, well sorry about making a fool of my self" after 10 minutes of talking, we walked back in the room, I just looked at Celestia and put my hands behind my back, she stared at me and nodded once, I nodded once back. "Ahem, me and mr. Sullivan have come to an agreement, that Fluttershy should go to the pony world and join her friends, as friendship is more important then family." "Friendship is also like family when you think about it." "Very well thought Mr. Sullivan." "Thank you. Twilight, would you again do the honers?" "Woefully Mr. Sullivan" "Just call me Luke, it'll be easier. Oh, and go a little faster then last time or the dramatic and sad mement will be ruined." and without interruption, I let Twilight do her job, she slowly went up to Fluttershy, I don't know if she will remember me or not, but I hope she has some memories of me so she knows that someone out there loves her, and will do anything for her. As Twilight was getting closer, the more I could remember everything, but it was going in reverse, from now to the very begining, as Twilight got really close to Fluttershy to give her back her old memories, I saw it... The moment which made me want to run up to her and give her the biggest hug of my life... The moment where I wanted to grab my hair and rip it clean off my head... The moment that made me loose my vision from the amount of tears coming from my eyes... I saw her... The way I first saw her, the way it all started.... And thats when time stopped. Literetly, something made it stop, but I didn't care. "What's wrong? Why are you crying so much?" said a gentle, loving voice "It's her... She looks like the way I found her, she looks so young, so cute, yet... So lost, but at home... Just let it end right now... JUST LET IT ENNNnnnnd" I leaned on the wall and slid down it slowly and put my head on my knees "Unless you have something you want to do or say, just end it...". And without another word, she replayed time, but it moved slowly, this wasn't from Celestia. But as time moved slowly, the foul Fluttershy looked at me, and I looked at her back. She opened her mouth and said..... "I love you dad" I just stared back and said "I love you too... my growing tree... and I will never forget you..." "neither will I daddy, I'll always love you". And it was over. A big white light let me know it was... I still could remember her, and I was still crying my eyes out. "Luke? Are you ok? Why are you crying?" "Fluttershy's gone mum, she's gone... To her friends in ponyville, and I don't know if she will remember me or not... But I hope she's happy with her life..." "Fluttershy? You're crying as if you spent most your life with her and had to let her go. You really need to stop watching My Little Pony." My mum put me on the couch and gave me some milk. She was gone from my mum and dads mind, Celestia didn't let them keep there memorise of her. "wait..." I ran upstairs to Fluttershy's room, nothing but a bed. I guess it was the guest room. "Luke! Come here!" I went downstairs and saw that mum was holding a book, I went up to her and asked to hold it, it was a memory book. Me and Fluttershy was in it. "Celestia.... you kind pony." I took it and went to put it on the top of a high book shelf, a piece of paper fell out of it. I picked it up and read it in my mind "Dear dad, these 16 years have been great. I learned so many things that my friends would love to hear about. I hope I never forget you as I couldn't have asked for a better dad, I may never see you again, but everyday I'll live life to the fullest for us both. Love from... Your growing tree..." I got soft, gentle tears running down my cheeks and drank the milk mum gave me. Epilogue Today is Friday the 13th, the day 6 ponies entered my house though the front door, and 7 left through no doors but instead used magic. The day I found a little creature, gave it some family love, raised it and called it my own. The day I still celebrate a ponies birthday for, even though they are not around anymore. The day I made a promise to live each day to the fullest for that creature I raised, I cared for, I called my daughter, I call her my growing tree, but sometimes I call her... My Little Fluttershy. I decided I'll live wild tomorrow, but now was bedtime. I go to my bed room after a shower and go in the dresser that stores my cloths to put on some pjs, it seemed bright for the middle of the night cause there was a light at the back of my dresser and.... Wait... I don't have a light in my dresser.... I moved some cloths to look closer, and I got to the light... I poked my head in it, then blackness. I woke up later to some excited screaming "DADDY DADDY DADDY DADDY DADDY!!!!!" "Fluttershy, quit screaming, I'm trying to sleep...." I said as I was really tired. Then I fully woke up from realisation of what was going on, I was in Fluttershy's house. "FLUTTERSHY!!!!" I gave her the biggest hug that I ever gave anything in my life. "DADDY!!! I never thought I would see you again!!!" That's when Fluttershy's door opened and what would you know, some royal guards were stood there. Me and Fluttershy stared at them in fear "Fluttershy, what's happening?" "I don't know daddy" "Ahem! Princess Celestia would like to see both of you, immediately." I don't like the sound of that, but when we got there Celestia looked dis-pleased. "Mr. Luke Mathaüs Sullivan-Corbelle, you have come here to Equestria to do what?" "To live with my daughter. To be honest too, I saw a White light in the back of my dresser so I didn't think I would be visiting" "Well you should of! Don't you remember the agreement we had?" "I do, daddy let me go to ponyville to be with my friends" "Also I could come and see my daughter at anytime I wanted and still live my normal life outside of ponyville and Equestria." "Wh... What? And you didn't tell me dad?" "Sorry, happy birthday I suppose?" "Oh shoot! It's my birthday today! I should be returning to ponyville and get back to the party!" "We moved it here ages ago, so enjoy your party little one." "Thank you Celestia" "Oh, and Luke, you can't walk around Equestria like that, here." she put her horn on my head and I felt odd, it's like that feeling you get when you feel shorter but you're still the same size. Celestia gave me a mirror and showed me what I looked like. My dream pony, I looked like him! My creation! My Cutie Mark was a person holding a little yellow creature, showing that my special talent is being a farther, after looking at my pony, I went to Fluttershy's party. The guys were surprised to see me there, and the celebrated even more. All but Rainbow Dash... It was more obvious she was upset as everyone in the room was happy. I thought I would slip out the room without telling anypony and talk to Celestia. 1 Hour later, the doors to Fluttershy's birthday party opened, everypony went quiet and stared at me and the person I was with. Dash looked at him, the man and slowly walked to him and stopped in front of him. "Daddy?" "Dashie?" they looked at each other, and smiled, and they hugged each other and didn't let go. "I missed you so much dad..." "I missed you too Dashie..." I sniffed here "Somepony get me a tissue.... This is very touching when you know what happened before this." Shortly after the party continued, Dash's dad made the same agreement as I did, Dash was reunited with her dad, I got to be a pony, and everypony was happy. Both me and... My Little Fluttershy.
