Out of the bushes

Ponyville, Equestria


Celestia's sun was rising and glown brightly, the clouds were being cleared by a rainbow maned pegasus. The shops were being opened while ponies were on their way to work or to do their daily routines. Fillies could be seen going towards the schoolhouse, some were gathering to walk in together. A grey coloured pegasus with a blond mane could be seen delivering mail to the town's residents, with a few crashes and bumps on the head although this didnt seem to affect her at all.


Fluttershy's Cottage, Ponyville, Equestria


Fluttershy woke up and got out of bed, she looked in the mirror to see the dreaded bed mane "nothing a quick brush can't fix" Fluttershy thought to herself, she looked around for Angel but could not find him, she walked downstairs to see Angel sleeping on the couch and proceeded to walk up to him and nuzzled him gently

"time to wake up angel...i mean...thats if you want to..." her voice getting quieter but even that didnt stop Angel from waking up. he looked at Fluttershy's mane and hopped up the stairs, only return about 30 seconds later with a brush. he jumped onto Fluttershy's back and started to brush her mane while she walked into the kitchen to make her and Angel breakfast

a short while after, she put the breakfast for herself and her small companion on the table. Angel jumped onto the table and stared at his breakfast which consisted of carrots, lettuce and some other vegetables and then to Fluttershy, rolling his eyes which looked like he was saying "oh, im having this again..."

"Whats the matter Angel? dont you like what i made for you?" said Fluttershy as she started to eat her breakfast which was a bowl of cereal with a glass of orange juice. Angel looked down at his food and started to dig in.

After breakfast, Fluttershy started to tend to the other animals, she checked they had enough food and water, made sure that they were happy. She looked towards to the sky to see Rainbow Dash preparing a cloud for herself to nap on and smiled before looking towards the Everfree forest...

She squinted her eyes to see 2 small dots falling towards the forest, thinking it was 2 birds or even worse, 2 pegasi that have been injured, her caring instinct kicked in as she started to run to the Everfree forest.

Rainbow Dash was just about to lay down on the cloud when she saw Fluttershy heading towards the Everfree and flew down behind her "Hey Fluttershy..."

This caused Fluttershy to jump and try to find a good hiding spot, going into a nearby bush. Rainbow Dash gave a light giggle and walked up to the bush and said in a calm voice "don't worry Fluttershy, its only me"

Fluttershy slowly peaked her head out of the bush only to be greeted by the cyan pegasus "oh...sorry Rainbow...i didnt know it was you..." she replied as she slowly got out of the bush

Rainbow flew above Fluttershy and helped lift her out of the bush and put her on the ground.

"heh, it's okay Fluttershy, i should of known by now not to sneak up on you like that. Why are you heading to the forest anyways?"

"Oh..um.." Fluttershy tilted her head towards the ground while digging her hoof into the ground a little "i...i saw something falling into the forest...and i think it might be hurt so i thought i should go see if i can help it..."

Rainbow stared at Fluttershy for a while before turning her head towards the forest "did you think that i was going to let you go in there alone? what kind of friend would i be if i let one of my best friends go in to dark, dangerous forest by herself with no means of protection?"

Fluttershy looked up at Rainbow silently before saying in her soothing voice "n..not a very good one?" before hiding her face behind her mane

"EGGS-actly" Rainbow replied with a smile on her face "now come on, let's go see what happened".

***

Ashley and Callum both woke up, only to hear the sound of air rushing past their ears while all they could see was a small, flickering bright pink/purple light in the sky. Both felt like they were falling and slowly turned their bodies only to see they WERE falling and the only safe spots were trees or a small pond which would be too far away to land in.

Both decided to use their common sense and try to slow down the falling rate by spreading their bodies out more, it didnt help much but it was going to be better than diving head first into the ground from about 400ft in the air.

When they assumed that they were about 100ft away, they turned their bodies once more so that their bags would take most of the force of hitting the tree's (hopefully) or hitting the ground. Callum closed his eyes as hard as he could while Ashley just looked at the sky. The breaking of tree branches and rustle of the leaves replaced the sound of air rushing past their ears.

Luckily, their bags DID take most of the impact but it didnt help them from injury, about 2 minutes of groaning from pain, Ashley struggled to stand up, using nearby trees to support his movements. He slowly limbed to Callum, clutching his left arm with his right hand after seeing a huge cut going up his forearm (it wasn't fatal, but nothing a bandage couldn't fix, thats if they had any bandages on them). He held his left hand out to Callum who grabbed hold of it, Ashley pulled Callum up only to see him with a few minor scratches and cuts over his hands and neck "Lucky bastard" Ashley thought to himself.

Callum looked around to see their new environment, all he saw was trees, bushes, and the odd blue flowers which he decided not to go nearby in case they were poisonous. He looked up, only to see the 2 shapes him and his friend made when they 'landed' with a couple of broken branches, as well as being blinded by the sun's light breaking through them.

Ashley on the other hand was in pain, but he didnt like to show it in front of Callum, sitting on the ground, he took off his shirt, he pulled out his knife to cut the shirt in half so it its purpose would be a makeshift bandage. wrapping the shirt around his arm but dropping the shirt as he only had one hand to do so "Callum, i need some help here..."

Callum turned around and walked over to Ashley. Grabbing the ripped shirt and bandaging the wound "Would you like me to kiss the boo-boo better now?" he said with small laugh

"I know something else on my body you should kiss" replied Ashley while pointing to his behind, with a huge grin on his face.

"thats just disgusting and you know it" replied Callum while putting slight pressure onto the wound with a smirk on his face.

"FFFF- THAT FUCKING HURTS YA' KNOW?!" pushing Callum away with his other hand, Ashley putting his knife away and slowly stood back up, checking his bandaged wound before looking at the scenary "where in God's name do you think we are?"

"i dont know, i was thinking the Amazon rainforest but for one thing, it is way too quiet"

Callum got out his pistol and turned on the flashlight, checking the suppressor was on properly before whispering to Ashley "if anything attacks us, maybe the flashlight will blind them slightly. You should get your weapon out just in case. also, check your suppressor. We dont want to get any unwanted attention from God knows whats in this forest"

Ashley done what his friend asked, he listened out for any noise, all he could hear was the rustling of nearby bushes with the sound of large footsteps getting closer. he turned to Callum who was keeping an eye behind them "we should hide, as in NOW." he whisper loudly to Callum

But it was too late...
