Twilight's Bizarre Adventure: Tick Tock

"That's her plan?" Eyes widen, Twilight cannot believe her ears: "No! Changing the whole timeline can bring unexpected results! I don't approve of this nonsense!"

"We can't just let Pinkie die, right?" Fluttershy argues back: "their ancestors acquired standability from an arrow. All we need to do it to take that arrow away, nice and easy. No need to mass anything up."

"Twilight is right," Sunset says: "I studied all sorts magic in Equestria, and time-traveling spells were mostly forbidden. There's no way of knowing what might happen!"

"But..."

"Sorry, Fluttershy," Sunset cuts her off: "This isn't going to work."

"It's all right," Pinkamane says, with a smiley face: "This is a plan anyways. Just forget about it, I will figure something out."

"Is there nothing I can do?" Fluttershy asks.

"Don't worry about it. I will figure something out."

"Actually," Fluttershy says: "Would you like to meet my friends this weekend? We would be delighted if you can join us in Equestrian Cafe Saturday afternoon."

"Oh, I am flattered." Pinkamane responds: "I am happy to be invited."

"Hi, Flutters." Sunset enters the pet shop: "What makes you call at lunchtime?"

"Oh, hi Sunset" Fluttershy greets: "Sorry for calling you out on Saturday, but I can use some help."

"What can I do for ya?"

"I just want to clean the whole for an upcoming event, could you please wipe the tables while I wipe the floor?" Fluttershy asks politely.

As the two start cleaning, Sunset asks: "Hi, eh, I am really sorry..."

"It's all right," Fluttershy answers while wiping the floor.

"Ok, cool beans." Sunset is relived: "I also invited Twilight, so you two can..."

A shadowy fist strikes Sunset in the back of her neck, knocking her down instantaneously.

"I am really sorry, Sunset," Fluttershy says as Sunset sinks in her own shadow: "but this is for Pinkie's life."

"So sorry for being late!" Twilight rushes into the door: "What the...Fluttershy, what are you..." Perhaps out of nervousness, Twilight's ability activates on its own. Two possibilities emerge in front of her eyes: 1. both Fluttershy and Sunset on the floor. 2. Both sink into shadows. There's no time to hesitate, and Twilight summons her stand and charges directly towards Fluttershy.

"I am really sorry, Twilight," Fluttershy says, as countless shadowy hands emerge from every piece of shadow in the pet shop, striking Twilight simultaneously from every angle.

"Sorry, Twilight," Fluttershy says as she sinks into shadow while some shadowy hands carry now unconscious gently onto the floor: "Rest now, I will take care of everything."

"Ms. Pinkamane," Pinkamane hears Fluttershy's voice from inside of her bag: "What the...Fluttershy?"

"Please do not speak and listen to what I have to say," Fluttershy shows part of her head inside of Pinkamane's bag: "please make your way to the park, I've found a cure."

"All right." Pinkamane answers, zipping her bag. Her plan is working out: Fluttershy is the most generous, and the kindest among them all. If she can convince Fluttershy, then Fluttershy will convince Sunset for sure. However, what Pinkamane doesn't know is how far Fluttershy has gone.

"Sunset..." Twilight wakes up, surprised that she's still able to move. Fluttershy didn't strick with full force. She took out her phone and called Rainbow Dash: "I am in Fluttershy's pet shop, get everyone, and we have to move now."
