It’s the wedding day of Fluttershy and Thunderlane. Twilight is officiating. It’s a small wedding, just friends and family, which for Fluttershy means her little brother is in town and she hopes he doesn’t mess things up. She peaks over to make sure he’s behaving himself and by some miracle he is. “Fluttershy, Fluttershy,” says Twilight trying to catch the mare’s attention. “It’s time for you and Thunderlane to share your vows, remember?” “Oh sorry, zoned out, I’m a bit nervous, sorry,” responds Fluttershy softly. She lets out a sigh and begins her vows. “Thunderlane, from the moment I first met you, I couldn’t help but fall head over hooves for you. You are handsome, strong, talented, a good cook,” she giggles, “I knew right then that I needed you in my life. I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you!” Thunderlane begins his vows. “My dearest Fluttershy, I remember the day you fell into my hooves, you lost your balance on a cloud and I caught you, from that moment, I dare say, I’d fallen for you.” “Okay, now for the important part,” responds Twilight, “do you, Thunderlane, take Fluttershy to be your lawfully wedded wife?” “I do,” responds Thunderlane. “And do you, Fluttershy, take Thunderlane to be your lawfully wedded husband?” “I do,” Fluttershy responds softly. “You may kiss the bride,” responds Twilight with a smile. Thunderlane takes Fluttershy and kisses her. They then fly off and away to their new home in Cloudsdale. They agreed prior to use Fluttershy’s cottage as a vacation and summer home if need be so that she wouldn’t have to sell it. Over the following weeks, they happily adjust to their new home, him more easily than her at times. “Honey, you do like our home, don’t you?” Asks Thunderlane as he puts his hoof on her shoulder. “Yes,” responds Fluttershy, “I do. I’m just a little homesick. I’ll get over it, though.” She says that but never gets over it. A week later, she realizes why when she starts puking everywhere. “Honey,” she says to Thunderlane one night, “I think I’m pregnant.” “Oh joy!” Squeals Thunderlane as he scoops her up in his hooves. “I’m going to be a father!” “Yeah,” giggles Fluttershy, “I can’t wait to be a mom!” Over the following weeks, the two buy everything they need to welcome a little filly or colt into their lives. They buy a crib, bottles, formula, diapers. They’re so excited and ready for this next step in their lives. A few hours later, Thunderlane tucks Fluttershy all comfy into bed and heads off to work where he’s soon greeted by Trail Blazer, Soaren and Rainbow Dash. “Welcome to the parents club,” they say to him with a chuckle. “What? Oh thanks,” responds Thunderlane. “We’re excited.” “Yeah, as are we,” says Soaren looking at Rainbow Dash. “We’re expecting a foal of our own as well,” responds RD. “We’re hoping for a filly.” “As are we,” responds Thunderlane. “As are we.” He then heads off to flying practice with Soaren and Trailblazer while Rainbow returns to her office. There, she starts on paperwork when she’s interrupted by two young recruits. “Get back to your young flyers training!” She snaps at the two colts. The two colts are Spitfire and Lightning Dust’s colts, Blazer and Bolt. The two leave her office and head back to young flyers training where they are surrounded by the other colts and fillies. “Where’d you two disappear to?” Asks another colt, Wind Splitter. “Getting kicked out of his godmare’s office, I bet,” interjects another colt, Triple Whip. “Yes, fine, that’s right, is that what you wanted to hear!” Snaps Bolt. He and Blaze fly off. They don’t get far before getting stopped by Lightning Dust who is there to pick them up due to their misbehavior. “Oh, hi, mom,” says Bolt. He and Blaze follow her back to the Dust family home where they’re reprimanded further. “You know not to bother Rainbow when she’s working because that means I get called which means I can’t work! What were you thinking?! And Blaze, you know better, your mom was a Wonderbolt’s captain, what in Tartarus?!” “We’re sorry, we weren’t thinking,” respond the colts. “We promise to behave next time.” “Darn right,” responds Lighting Dust. She then flies off back to work. A few hours later after practice had ended for the day, Thunderlane returns home and finds Fluttershy fast asleep but she awakens at the sound of his hoof beats entering their bedroom. “Oh hey, welcome home, honey,” says Fluttershy with a smile. “How was practice today?” “Good, did you know RD is expecting as well?” Responds Thunderlane. “Yeah, she found out last week,” responds Fluttershy. “And I know what you’re gonna say next, Trail Blazer and his wife are expecting their third.” “Okay, cool,” responds Thunderlane. “How have you been?” “Good, just tired,” responds Fluttershy. “I’ve basically slept all day. Food wise just had soup and daisy sandwiches brought to me by Angel Bunny. He’s such a good little helper.” “Uh huh, I’m sure,” responds Thunderlane who soon sits down at his wife’s side. The two talk for about an hour more before Fluttershy falls back asleep. Two hours later, the doorbell rings and they open the door to find RD and Soaren along with Trailblazer and his wife Crystalline. “Come in,” says Thunderlane. He then goes and helps Fluttershy to the couch so she can see her friends. Once on the couch, she embraces RD in a hug. “It’s good to see you, RD,” says Fluttershy. “Yeah, it’s good to see you, too, Fluttershy,” responds RD with a smile. “I can’t believe all our foals will get to grow up together.” “I know, it’s going to be nice,” responds Fluttershy. “I can’t wait.” “Neither can I,” responds RD. “I’m sure our foals will be best friends just like we are!” “No doubt in my mind,” responds Fluttershy with a smile. The two friends talk for another hour or two before parting ways. They’re both so excited. They can’t wait! Chapter 2-A Year Later and a Day ApartA year later and a day apart, Fluttershy gives birth to her daughter Flittersoft and Rainbow gives birth to her daughter Soara. Flittersoft is pale gray in color with her mom’s pink mane and tail and green eyes. Soara is a navy blue with a rainbow mane and tail and deep blue eyes. The fillies are even born in the same hospital in Cloudsdale. After their birth, the fillies are taken to be checked over by the doctors while the mares stay in their respective rooms where they’re soon greeted by their husbands. “Hey honey,” says Thunderlane as he kisses Fluttershy on the head. In a room next door, Soaren does the same to RD. “I can’t believe we’re finally parents,” respond the mares to their respective husbands. “And to beautiful little fillies nonetheless.” Elsewhere in another room down the hall, Trail Blazer and Crystalline welcome their third, a little filly into the world as well. They name theirs Twinkling Moon. About two weeks later, the couples return home with their fillies in tow. A week after that, Soara and Flittersoft are properly introduced while Rainbow and Fluttershy catch up over tea. “I’m so thrilled to be a mom to a foal of my own,” laughs Rainbow, “Soara is so much easier than her older godbrother Bolt, the little pain in my neck.” She giggles. “I still don’t know why you agreed to be the godmare to Lightning Dust’s colt, you two used to hate each other,” responds Fluttershy. “You puzzle me sometimes, Rainbow.” “We were both children then, immature, we’ve grown up, motherhood has changed both of us,” responds Rainbow. “And besides, I love the kid, he’s just a normal ten year old.” “I suppose so,” responds Fluttershy. “I love being a mom, little Flittersoft is so quiet. She’s such a quiet sleeper, it’s nice. She hasn’t even met her uncle yet, poor thing doesn’t know what she’s in for.” “Yeah, Zeph sure is a handful,” responds RD, “hopefully he won’t fudge up being an uncle too.” “Here’s hoping,” agrees a nervous Fluttershy. She lets out a sigh. “Here’s hoping.” A few weeks later, little Flittersoft meets her super outgoing uncle for the first time and is absolutely terrified of him just like Fluttershy feared. She scoops the filly up and away from Zephyr Breeze. “Zephyr, unless you tone down the energy some, you can’t see your niece. You’re scaring her.” “Sorry sis, I’m just so excited to be an uncle,” Zephyr responds. “I’ll try to calm down. I’ll do better. I promise.” “Okay,” responds Fluttershy. Once Flittersoft stops crying, Fluttershy puts her back down on the ground and Zephyr drops his energy level a bit and approaches the filly again, this time with lack of tears from the filly. Both Fluttershy and her brother are relieved. Over the following weeks, Flittersoft learns to finally take a proper liking to her uncle. Fluttershy couldn’t be more relieved. On top of that, her parents love being grandparents and stop by whenever they get an excuse. Everything truly is perfect and Fluttershy wouldn’t have it any other way. Chapter 4-Flying PracticeA few weeks later, it’s the first week of flying practice for all young Pegasi fillies and colts on the Wonderbolts grounds so Fluttershy sends little Flittersoft there at her father Thunderlane’s side. “Do I have to go, daddy?” Asks the shy little filly. “Yes, besides, Soara will be there too,” responds Thunderlane with a smile. “And who knows? You may end up making new friends.” A few moments later, the two arrive and Thunderlane drops Flittersoft off at the flying session where she is quickly greeted by Soara and one other little filly. “Hi,” says Flittersoft. She high hoofs with her friend. “It’s good to see you again, Soara.” “You too,” responds Soara with a smile, “this is my other friend, Airess.” “Nice to meet you,” responds Flittersoft with a smile. “Likewise,” Airess responds just as shyly. The three head off to flying practice together. As they’re practicing with the instructor, they watch in awe at the more advanced young flyers overhead especially Bolt and Blaze. “Those are the advanced students,” says the instructor, “don’t mind them.” The foals don’t listen as their eyes remain fixed on the foals above them. After a few minutes, they snap out of it and get back to practicing their wing flaps with the instructor. There are about ten foals in the beginners class including Soara, Flittersoft, and Airess. The other foals include Scootaloo’s little girl Conch Shell, a soft spoken daredevil type. She soon attaches herself onto Soara, Flittersoft, and Airess who don’t mind at all, they like having another friend. After practice, all the fillies hang out together until their parents finish Wonderbolt training for the day. For Conch and Flittersoft, that would be their dads and for the other two, it would be both of their parents. A few hours later, that training ends and the fillies share goodbye hugs and head their separate ways and tell their parents all about the day they had and how glad they were to be around familiar friends. “See, I told you it wouldn’t be that bad,” says Thunderlane to little Flittersoft. “Yeah,” responds Flittersoft, “you were right dad. It’s nice to have friends around, there’s Soara, Airess, Conch Shell. We spent the time after our young flyers class just hanging out and joking and just having an all around fun time.” “Well, that’s good, I’m glad you’re making friends, baby girl,” responds Thunderlane. They stop by the ice cream shop Cloud Cones before heading home. Once at home, Flittersoft can’t stop talking and tells her mom absolutely everything. Fluttershy can’t even get her to slow down. That’s how she knows her daughter had an amazing time and for that, she’s glad and glad her daughter is making new friends too. Chapter 5-The SleepoverThat weekend, Flittersoft has her new friends and Soara for a sleepover. “Your house is nice,” says Airess in awe. “Ours is so tiny.” “Thanks,” says Flittersoft somewhat shyly. “Glad you like it.” The four fillies stumble up the stairs to Flittersoft’s room. Once inside, they all sit down on the bed and continue to talk while Flittersoft grabs Pippy gently from her wood house. She holds it close to her face and it nuzzles her cheek. She brings her pet over and lets her friends see it. “She’s cute,” says Airess. “Can I hold her?” Flittersoft nods as she lets her friend hold her pet. Airess giggles as she plays with the small chipmunk. They all take turns with Pippy before she eventually ends back up curled up and asleep in Flittersoft’s lap. “So, flying training is hecking hard, I’m so weak winged,” grumbles Flittersoft. “Filly, same,” agree Airess, Soara, and Conch. “I wish there was a group we could talk about our struggles after practice.” “Well, we could revive mom’s old Weak Flyers Club that she and Derpy were a part of,” suggests Flittersoft. “That works,” responds Soara. “First meeting next week after training?” They put their hooves in and out up in the air in agreement. “Agreed!” Cheer the fillies in unison. They then fall back onto the bed laughing. A few moments later, they are called down to dinner by Fluttershy. “Girls! Dinner!” Cries the pink maned yellow Pegasus mare up the staircase. “Coming!” Holler the fillies as they topple down the stairs one atop another. They then scramble to their seats at the table. Flittersoft seemingly forgetting that she forgot to tuck Pippy back into bed. Fluttershy just giggles. “Baby girl, no chipmunks at the table, go put the poor thing back to bed.” Flittersoft nods and takes Pippy back up to her bed, and tucks her in before returning back downstairs to dinner. “So, how’s the sleepover been so far?” Inquires Fluttershy. “It’s been good,” say the girls in unison. “It’s been so much fun!” They then begin eating their dinner as Fluttershy sits down to join them and afterwards they play cards and watch a movie. Needless to say, it’s been a great sleepover and the girls can’t wait to have more in the future. Chapter 6-I Hearby Call the First Meeting of the New and Improved Weak Flyers ClubA few weeks later, Flittersoft and her friends Soara, Airess, and Conch gather in the bleachers after practice for the first meeting of the Weak Flyers Club. “I now call this meeting to order,” says Flittersoft. “This is the first meeting of the new and improved Weak Flyers Club.” She then rejoins them on the bleachers. “Practice today was a struggle as always,” sighs Soara. “It’s so hard to even get off the clouds. It’s not my fault mom and dad don’t have enough time to practice with me. They’re both full fledged Wonderbolts after all.” “I feel that,” agree Flittersoft and Airess. “Dad is always busy at practice,” says Flittersoft. “Mom and dad are always here training, practicing, nonstop,” adds Airess. “Same with my dad,” adds Conch. “Rumble is always out here training.” “Yeah, I wish they’d spend more time with us, just being with family and helping us with our flying,” say Flittersoft and her cousin Conch with a sigh in unison. The four fillies continue to talk for hours on end before their parents finally finish practice and head home. Thunderlane and Flittersoft first stop by Rumble’s where he is greeted by Scootaloo, they then all head back to Thunderlane’s house. Someway, somehow, Flittersoft forgot it was family game night. She’s honestly glad it is though as she enjoys quality family time when she can get it. That night at the Thunderlane household, the family laughs and jokes as they play cards, haystacks, Wood tower, among other games. Between turns, Everypony nibbles on hay burgers and fresh apple slices with caramel sauce. “This is fun,” giggle Flittersoft and Conch. “Man! Do I love family night!” The fillies smile ear to ear. They continue to giggle as they put their cards down on the “haystack”. The games continue for hours before the siblings part ways. First though, they agree to let the cousins go on and have a sleepover which leaves both fillies overjoyed. “Thanks dad, mom, I’ll see you tomorrow,” says Conch as she hugs her parents goodbye. “We’ll see you then,” says Rumble as he messes up the filly’s mane. He and Scootaloo then head out and the fillies file up the stairs to play in Flittersoft’s room. Chapter 3-PippyThree years later, Fluttershy takes Flittersoft to her cottage to let her pick out a pet. “I like the chipmunk, mommy,” says the filly with a giggle. “Then she’s yours,” responds Fluttershy as she flies up to the tree and brings it down to her daughter. She hands it to the filly. “Mow what do you want to name her?” “Pipsqueak or Pippy for shore,” responds the filly. “Then Pippy it is,” responds Fluttershy with a beaming smile. They then fly off to Rainbow Dash and Soaren’s for their scheduled play date. Once there, Flittersoft shows her pet to her best friend Soara. “Whoa, cool,” responds Soara. “Can I pet her?” “Of core,” responds Flittersoft. Soara then walks over and pets the chipmunk and giggles as it climbs up her hoof. Flittersoft smiles and giggles along as well before walking over and taking Pippy back under her wing. The chipmunk cuddles up and falls fast asleep. “That’s a good Pippy,” says Flittersoft softly. “Enjoy your nap.” The fillies then head off to play while Fluttershy catches up with Rainbow. “They’re growing up so fast,” sighs Rainbow to her friend. “Yeah, I know,” responds Fluttershy. “Flittersoft just got to choose her first pet today, her chipmunk, Pippy.” “Yeah, it sure does look like she enjoys her little companion,” responds Rainbow. “Soara keeps asking for a pet, but I don’t know what to do.” “Well, let her come to my cottage someday and let her pick one out,” responds Fluttershy giggling. “Don’t worry, I will,” responds Rainbow laughing. “There’s no doubt about that.” The two continue to talk for hours on end while the girls play upstairs in Soara’s room. They run around, attempt flying, and just play generally with Soara’s toys. About two hours later, Fluttershy and Flittersoft say goodbye and return home to Thunderlane who just got out of Wonderbolt training from the day. “Hey girls, welcome home,” says Thunderlane with a smile, “how was the play date at Rainbow and Soaren’s?” “It was good,” responds Fluttershy. “We also had something else today before that, remember?” “Oh yes, letting Flitter pick out her pet at your cottage, right? What did you decide on baby girl?” “A chipmunk,” responds Flittersoft. She pulls it out from under her wing and shows her dad. “See! Her name is Pippy!” “That’s a great name for her, she’s so cute, so teensy,” responds Thunderlane. “You’re gonna be a great pet momma, baby girl.” He fluffs and ruffles her mane messing up the braid. Flittersoft stops his hoof from doing it again and heads up to her room and fixes her braid. She then comes back down to dinner with her parents after putting Pippy down for a nap.
Chapter 1-I Do’s and Big NewsIt’s a sunny spring morning in Ponyville where this story begins. It’s the wedding day of Fluttershy and Thunderlane. Twilight is officiating. It’s a small wedding, just friends and family, which for Fluttershy means her little brother is in town and she hopes he doesn’t mess things up. She peaks over to make sure he’s behaving himself and by some miracle he is. “Fluttershy, Fluttershy,” says Twilight trying to catch the mare’s attention. “It’s time for you and Thunderlane to share your vows, remember?” “Oh sorry, zoned out, I’m a bit nervous, sorry,” responds Fluttershy softly.

Thunderlane takes Fluttershy and kisses her. They then fly off and away to their new home in Cloudsdale. They agreed prior to use Fluttershy’s cottage as a vacation and summer home if need be so that she wouldn’t have to sell it. Over the following weeks, they happily adjust to their new home, him more easily than her at times. “Honey, you do like our home, don’t you?” Asks Thunderlane as he puts his hoof on her shoulder. “Yes,” responds Fluttershy, “I do.

A few hours later, Thunderlane tucks Fluttershy all comfy into bed and heads off to work where he’s soon greeted by Trail Blazer, Soaren and Rainbow Dash. “Welcome to the parents club,” they say to him with a chuckle. “What? Oh thanks,” responds Thunderlane. “We’re excited.” “Yeah, as are we,” says Soaren looking at Rainbow Dash. “We’re expecting a foal of our own as well,” responds RD. “We’re hoping for a filly.” “As are we,” responds Thunderlane. “As are we.” He then heads off to flying practice with Soaren and Trailblazer while Rainbow returns to her office. There, she starts on paperwork when she’s interrupted by two young recruits. “Get back to your young flyers training!” She snaps at the two colts. The two colts are Spitfire and Lightning Dust’s colts, Blazer and Bolt. The two leave her office and head back to young flyers training where they are surrounded by the other colts and fillies. “Where’d you two disappear to?” Asks another colt, Wind Splitter. “Getting kicked out of his godmare’s office, I bet,” interjects another colt, Triple Whip. “Yes, fine, that’s right, is that what you wanted to hear!” Snaps Bolt. He and Blaze fly off. They don’t get far before getting stopped by Lightning Dust who is there to pick them up due to their misbehavior. “Oh, hi, mom,” says Bolt. He and Blaze follow her back to the Dust family home where they’re reprimanded further. “You know not to bother Rainbow when she’s working because that means I get called which means I can’t work! What were you thinking?! And Blaze, you know better, your mom was a Wonderbolt’s captain, what in Tartarus?!” “We’re sorry, we weren’t thinking,” respond the colts. “We promise to behave next time.” “Darn right,” responds Lighting Dust. She then flies off back to work. A few hours later after practice had ended for the day, Thunderlane returns home and finds Fluttershy fast asleep but she awakens at the sound of his hoof beats entering their bedroom. “Oh hey, welcome home, honey,” says Fluttershy with a smile. “How was practice today?” “Good, did you know RD is expecting as well?” Responds Thunderlane. “Yeah, she found out last week,” responds Fluttershy. “And I know what you’re gonna say next, Trail Blazer and his wife are expecting their third.” “Okay, cool,” responds Thunderlane. “How have you been?” “Good, just tired,” responds Fluttershy. “I’ve basically slept all day. Food wise just had soup and daisy sandwiches brought to me by Angel Bunny. He’s such a good little helper.” “Uh huh, I’m sure,” responds Thunderlane who soon sits down at his wife’s side. The two talk for about an hour more before Fluttershy falls back asleep. Two hours later, the doorbell rings and they open the door to find RD and Soaren along with Trailblazer and his wife Crystalline. “Come in,” says Thunderlane. He then goes and helps Fluttershy to the couch so she can see her friends. Once on the couch, she embraces RD in a hug. “It’s good to see you, RD,” says Fluttershy. “Yeah, it’s good to see you, too, Fluttershy,” responds RD with a smile. “I can’t believe all our foals will get to grow up together.” “I know, it’s going to be nice,” responds Fluttershy. “I can’t wait.” “Neither can I,” responds RD. “I’m sure our foals will be best friends just like we are!” “No doubt in my mind,” responds Fluttershy with a smile. The two friends talk for another hour or two before parting ways. They’re both so excited. They can’t wait!
Chapter 2-A Year Later and a Day ApartA year later and a day apart, Fluttershy gives birth to her daughter Flittersoft and Rainbow gives birth to her daughter Soara. Flittersoft is pale gray in color with her mom’s pink mane and tail and green eyes. Soara is a navy blue with a rainbow mane and tail and deep blue eyes. The fillies are even born in the same hospital in Cloudsdale. After their birth, the fillies are taken to be checked over by the doctors while the mares stay in their respective rooms where they’re soon greeted by their husbands. “Hey honey,” says Thunderlane as he kisses Fluttershy on the head. In a room next door, Soaren does the same to RD. “I can’t believe we’re finally parents,” respond the mares to their respective husbands. “And to beautiful little fillies nonetheless.” Elsewhere in another room down the hall, Trail Blazer and Crystalline welcome their third, a little filly into the world as well.

She lets out a sigh. “Here’s hoping.” A few weeks later, little Flittersoft meets her super outgoing uncle for the first time and is absolutely terrified of him just like Fluttershy feared. She scoops the filly up and away from Zephyr Breeze. “Zephyr, unless you tone down the energy some, you can’t see your niece. You’re scaring her.” “Sorry sis, I’m just so excited to be an uncle,” Zephyr responds. “I’ll try to calm down. I’ll do better. I promise.” “Okay,” responds Fluttershy. Once Flittersoft stops crying, Fluttershy puts her back down on the ground and Zephyr drops his energy level a bit and approaches the filly again, this time with lack of tears from the filly. Both Fluttershy and her brother are relieved. Over the following weeks, Flittersoft learns to finally take a proper liking to her uncle. Fluttershy couldn’t be more relieved. On top of that, her parents love being grandparents and stop by whenever they get an excuse. Everything truly is perfect and Fluttershy wouldn’t have it any other way.
Chapter 4-Flying PracticeA few weeks later, it’s the first week of flying practice for all young Pegasi fillies and colts on the Wonderbolts grounds so Fluttershy sends little Flittersoft there at her father Thunderlane’s side. “Do I have to go, daddy?” Asks the shy little filly. “Yes, besides, Soara will be there too,” responds Thunderlane with a smile. “And who knows? You may end up making new friends.” A few moments later, the two arrive and Thunderlane drops Flittersoft off at the flying session where she is quickly greeted by Soara and one other little filly. “Hi,” says Flittersoft. She high hoofs with her friend. “It’s good to see you again, Soara.” “You too,” responds Soara with a smile, “this is my other friend, Airess.” “Nice to meet you,” responds Flittersoft with a smile. “Likewise,” Airess responds just as shyly. The three head off to flying practice together. As they’re practicing with the instructor, they watch in awe at the more advanced young flyers overhead especially Bolt and Blaze. “Those are the advanced students,” says the instructor, “don’t mind them.” The foals don’t listen as their eyes remain fixed on the foals above them. After a few minutes, they snap out of it and get back to practicing their wing flaps with the instructor. There are about ten foals in the beginners class including Soara, Flittersoft, and Airess. The other foals include Scootaloo’s little girl Conch Shell, a soft spoken daredevil type. She soon attaches herself onto Soara, Flittersoft, and Airess who don’t mind at all, they like having another friend. After practice, all the fillies hang out together until their parents finish Wonderbolt training for the day. For Conch and Flittersoft, that would be their dads and for the other two, it would be both of their parents. A few hours later, that training ends and the fillies share goodbye hugs and head their separate ways and tell their parents all about the day they had and how glad they were to be around familiar friends. “See, I told you it wouldn’t be that bad,” says Thunderlane to little Flittersoft. “Yeah,” responds Flittersoft, “you were right dad. It’s nice to have friends around, there’s Soara, Airess, Conch Shell. We spent the time after our young flyers class just hanging out and joking and just having an all around fun time.” “Well, that’s good, I’m glad you’re making friends, baby girl,” responds Thunderlane. They stop by the ice cream shop Cloud Cones before heading home. Once at home, Flittersoft can’t stop talking and tells her mom absolutely everything. Fluttershy can’t even get her to slow down. That’s how she knows her daughter had an amazing time and for that, she’s glad and glad her daughter is making new friends too.
Chapter 5-The SleepoverThat weekend, Flittersoft has her new friends and Soara for a sleepover. “Your house is nice,” says Airess in awe. “Ours is so tiny.” “Thanks,” says Flittersoft somewhat shyly. “Glad you like it.” The four fillies stumble up the stairs to Flittersoft’s room. Once inside, they all sit down on the bed and continue to talk while Flittersoft grabs Pippy gently from her wood house. She holds it close to her face and it nuzzles her cheek. She brings her pet over and lets her friends see it. “She’s cute,” says Airess. “Can I hold her?” Flittersoft nods as she lets her friend hold her pet. Airess giggles as she plays with the small chipmunk. They all take turns with Pippy before she eventually ends back up curled up and asleep in Flittersoft’s lap. “So, flying training is hecking hard, I’m so weak winged,” grumbles Flittersoft. “Filly, same,” agree Airess, Soara, and Conch. “I wish there was a group we could talk about our struggles after practice.” “Well, we could revive mom’s old Weak Flyers Club that she and Derpy were a part of,” suggests Flittersoft. “That works,” responds Soara. “First meeting next week after training?” They put their hooves in and out up in the air in agreement. “Agreed!” Cheer the fillies in unison. They then fall back onto the bed laughing. A few moments later, they are called down to dinner by Fluttershy. “Girls! Dinner!” Cries the pink maned yellow Pegasus mare up the staircase. “Coming!” Holler the fillies as they topple down the stairs one atop another. They then scramble to their seats at the table. Flittersoft seemingly forgetting that she forgot to tuck Pippy back into bed. Fluttershy just giggles. “Baby girl, no chipmunks at the table, go put the poor thing back to bed.” Flittersoft nods and takes Pippy back up to her bed, and tucks her in before returning back downstairs to dinner. “So, how’s the sleepover been so far?” Inquires Fluttershy. “It’s been good,” say the girls in unison. “It’s been so much fun!” They then begin eating their dinner as Fluttershy sits down to join them and afterwards they play cards and watch a movie. Needless to say, it’s been a great sleepover and the girls can’t wait to have more in the future.
Chapter 6-I Hearby Call the First Meeting of the New and Improved Weak Flyers ClubA few weeks later, Flittersoft and her friends Soara, Airess, and Conch gather in the bleachers after practice for the first meeting of the Weak Flyers Club. “I now call this meeting to order,” says Flittersoft. “This is the first meeting of the new and improved Weak Flyers Club.” She then rejoins them on the bleachers. “Practice today was a struggle as always,” sighs Soara. “It’s so hard to even get off the clouds. It’s not my fault mom and dad don’t have enough time to practice with me. They’re both full fledged Wonderbolts after all.” “I feel that,” agree Flittersoft and Airess. “Dad is always busy at practice,” says Flittersoft. “Mom and dad are always here training, practicing, nonstop,” adds Airess. “Same with my dad,” adds Conch. “Rumble is always out here training.” “Yeah, I wish they’d spend more time with us, just being with family and helping us with our flying,” say Flittersoft and her cousin Conch with a sigh in unison. The four fillies continue to talk for hours on end before their parents finally finish practice and head home. Thunderlane and Flittersoft first stop by Rumble’s where he is greeted by Scootaloo, they then all head back to Thunderlane’s house. Someway, somehow, Flittersoft forgot it was family game night. She’s honestly glad it is though as she enjoys quality family time when she can get it. That night at the Thunderlane household, the family laughs and jokes as they play cards, haystacks, Wood tower, among other games. Between turns, Everypony nibbles on hay burgers and fresh apple slices with caramel sauce. “This is fun,” giggle Flittersoft and Conch. “Man! Do I love family night!” The fillies smile ear to ear. They continue to giggle as they put their cards down on the “haystack”. The games continue for hours before the siblings part ways. First though, they agree to let the cousins go on and have a sleepover which leaves both fillies overjoyed. “Thanks dad, mom, I’ll see you tomorrow,” says Conch as she hugs her parents goodbye. “We’ll see you then,” says Rumble as he messes up the filly’s mane. He and Scootaloo then head out and the fillies file up the stairs to play in Flittersoft’s room.
Chapter 3-PippyThree years later, Fluttershy takes Flittersoft to her cottage to let her pick out a pet. “I like the chipmunk, mommy,” says the filly with a giggle. “Then she’s yours,” responds Fluttershy as she flies up to the tree and brings it down to her daughter. She hands it to the filly. “Mow what do you want to name her?” “Pipsqueak or Pippy for shore,” responds the filly. “Then Pippy it is,” responds Fluttershy with a beaming smile. They then fly off to Rainbow Dash and Soaren’s for their scheduled play date. Once there, Flittersoft shows her pet to her best friend Soara. “Whoa, cool,” responds Soara. “Can I pet her?” “Of core,” responds Flittersoft. Soara then walks over and pets the chipmunk and giggles as it climbs up her hoof. Flittersoft smiles and giggles along as well before walking over and taking Pippy back under her wing. The chipmunk cuddles up and falls fast asleep. “That’s a good Pippy,” says Flittersoft softly. “Enjoy your nap.” The fillies then head off to play while Fluttershy catches up with Rainbow. “They’re growing up so fast,” sighs Rainbow to her friend. “Yeah, I know,” responds Fluttershy. “Flittersoft just got to choose her first pet today, her chipmunk, Pippy.” “Yeah, it sure does look like she enjoys her little companion,” responds Rainbow. “Soara keeps asking for a pet, but I don’t know what to do.” “Well, let her come to my cottage someday and let her pick one out,” responds Fluttershy giggling. “Don’t worry, I will,” responds Rainbow laughing. “There’s no doubt about that.” The two continue to talk for hours on end while the girls play upstairs in Soara’s room. They run around, attempt flying, and just play generally with Soara’s toys. About two hours later, Fluttershy and Flittersoft say goodbye and return home to Thunderlane who just got out of Wonderbolt training from the day. “Hey girls, welcome home,” says Thunderlane with a smile, “how was the play date at Rainbow and Soaren’s?” “It was good,” responds Fluttershy. “We also had something else today before that, remember?” “Oh yes, letting Flitter pick out her pet at your cottage, right? What did you decide on baby girl?” “A chipmunk,” responds Flittersoft. She pulls it out from under her wing and shows her dad. “See! Her name is Pippy!” “That’s a great name for her, she’s so cute, so teensy,” responds Thunderlane. “You’re gonna be a great pet momma, baby girl.” He fluffs and ruffles her mane messing up the braid. Flittersoft stops his hoof from doing it again and heads up to her room and fixes her braid. She then comes back down to dinner with her parents after putting Pippy down for a nap.
