Equestria And The Wonderbeasts!

Kipo peeked under her mother's wing as they walked along the path towards town, feeling nervous about their destination. "M-momma, do I have t-to go?" Kipo asked Fluttershy nervously and the Pegasus merely hugged her wing close to Kipo.

"Yes dear, you have to. As much as I want to have you stay at the house, you need to socialize with other fillies and colts so you can make friends." Fluttershy said and Kipo shook her head.

"But I do have friends! Applebloom, Scoots, and Sweetie Belle! Plus all your friends and my animal friends!" Kipo whined and Fluttershy smiled a bit, knowing that Kipo does have a lot of friends but she still needed to interact with other ponies besides her friends, since she might be going into town when she wants to instead of being locked in the house all the time.

"I know dear, but still, you have to go to school so you can make more friends. You want to make more friends right?" Fluttershy asked the girl, who slowly nodded her head but was still nervous about going to school. "Besides, I'm sure everything will be fine."

"Ok momma." Kipo said just as the two see the schoolhouse, as well as a bunch of other foals playing outside or going inside the building to get to their classes early. "It looks...small."

Fluttershy merely giggled at that. "Maybe just a little, but it's the best school in Ponyville." Fluttershy said before thinking to herself. 'Well, the only school in Ponyville, I wonder why is that since Ponyville is pretty big.' the two soon arrived at the front entrance of the school and stopped and Fluttershy begen to check Kipo's bag if she forgot anything. "Alright, now do you have everything? Lunch?"

"Yes." Kipo said, nodding her head.

"School supplies?"

"Yes."

"Necklace?"

"Wearing it right now."

"Angel?" Fluttershy asked in confusion as she saw the bunny in Kipo's bag and both him and Kipo giving her a sheepish smile.

"I didn't want to be alone and bunny said he would come with me to school." Kipo said and Fluttershy merely shook her head with a smile.

"That's very nice of him but I'm afraid he can't go, animals aren't allowed at school." Fluttershy said and both Kipo and Angel pouted.

"Aaaaw, but I don't want to be alone though!" Kipo said as she took Angel out of her bag and hugged him close to her. "And bunny will miss me!"

Angel began squeaking, 'Yeah, Kipo cub wants me to go with her yellow one. Kipo cub even gave me sad eyes.' both of them gave her pleading looks with their lower lips quivering a bit and Fluttershy just can't say no to those faces.

She lets out a sigh before nodding her head with a smile. "Alright, Angel can stay with you during school."

"Yay!" both Kipo and Angel said happily.

"But, he has to stay out of sight and not disturb anyone in class." Fluttershy said, a slightly stern tone in her voice. "Ok?"

"Ok." Kipo said with Angel nodding his head in agreement before Kipo put Angel back in her bag and the three walked inside and into the classroom, where a magenta earth pony with a light pink mane and tail with three smiling flowers for a Cutie Mark was. The mare looked at the two and smiled a bit while Kipo hid under her mother's wing again.

"Miss Fluttershy, I didn't expect to see you here." the mare said, getting up from her desk and walking over to the pegasus, not noticing Kipo who was peeking out from under Fluttershy's wing. "What brings you here?"

"W-well, I came here t-to enroll my daughter." Fluttershy said, and Cheerilee gasped a little in shock.

"Oh my goodness! You have a daughter? Why haven't I seen her around before?" Cheerilee asked Fluttershy, who nervously rubbed the back of her head.

"W-well, I was a bit w-worried about how other p-ponies would treat her, so I-I've been mostly homeschooling h-her." Fluttershy said and Cheerilee nodded her head in understanding.

"I understand, and you don't have to worry, I'm sure she will have a good time here at the school!" Cheerilee said then looked around Fluttershy, "And where is your daughter by the way? I would love to meet her."

Fluttershy looked at her wing and Cheerliee blushed in embarrassment at not having seen Kipo under Fluttershy's wing. "Come on s-sweetie, Miss Cheerilee is a-a good pony." Fluttershy said to Kipo, who shyly backed away a bit. "D-don't be shy K-Kipo." Kipo was still shy but came out from under Fluttershy's wing, surprising Cheerilee when she saw what Kipo looked like.

"H-hi." Kipo said before hiding behind Fluttershy, making the two mares giggle a bit.

"She certainly takes after you." Cheerilee said to Fluttershy before looking at Kipo, giving the girl a kind smile. "Hello little one, my name is Cheerilee, what's your name?"

"K-Kipo." Kipo responded, still hiding behind Fluttershy, her pink jaguar eyes staring at Cheerilee, who found it strange and adorable, strange because she's never seen anyone with those kinds of eyes before, and adorable because Kipo reminded her of a kitten that was peeking around the corner.

"It's nice to meet you Kipo. I'm sure you'll love coming to school." Cheerilee said, the kind smile still on her face, which made Kipo relax a little as she slowly came out from behind Fluttershy, her jaguar traits disappearing one by one, which made Cheerilee even more surprised but she shook it off. "I understand this is your first day correct?"

"Y-yes." Kipo answered, still feeling a little shy but was starting to get used to Cheerilee's presence.

"Well, I'm sure your first day will be wonderful Kipo, our students are very friendly and I'm sure they would love to be friends with you." Cheerilee said and Kipo perked up a bit at the mention of friends, she did agree to come to school so she can make some friends, even though she has plenty already.

"More friends?" Kipo asked her and Cheerilee nodded her head in response.

“Yes, you’ll make more friends here. Doesn’t that sound nice?” Cheerilee asked Kipo, who nodded her head eagerly.

“Yeah! I-I want to make m-more friends!” Kipo said excitedly.

“Alright, do you know any other fillies or colts?” Cheerilee asked Kipo.

Kipo nodded her and began to tell the mare three of her friends names. “Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle. They are my friends.”

“Oh? Well that's great, there is an open seat right between them. I will let you sit there as long as you pay attention in class, ok?” She asked with a smile.

“Ok!” Kipo said, giving the mare a smile as well.

Cheerilee nods and points at a desk in the middle of the room. “Right there, you can set your things there, the bell should ring in a few moments.”

Kipo nodded before running over to the desk, leaving Fluttershy and Cheerilee to talk. “K-Kipo won’t be a b-bother will she? Considering s-she’s, you know, d-different?” Fluttershy asked Cheerilee, still a bit nervous about leaving KIpo by herself.

Cheerilee smiles at Fluttershy and puts a hoof on her shoulder. “Don’t worry Fluttershy, I promise to take good care of her. What you're feeling is perfectly natural, every parent feels it when they drop their child off at school for the first time.”

’Oh, you don’t know the half of it Cheerilee.’ Fluttershy thought to herself before nodding her head. “I-I guess I am feeling a-a little nervous about sending K-Kipo to school.”

“Don’t worry, she will be fine. But if it makes you feel better you can stay over in the park and watch the school from there.” Cheerilee suggested.

Fluttershy would have agreed but she remembers she had to get back to the cottage as some of her animals needed her right now, especially the ones in the Everfree. “O-oh I would love to, b-but I’m a bit b-busy today.”

“Oh yes your animals, well don’t you worry. Kipo is in good hooves, not only am I here but she has her friends.” Cheerilee said, trying her best to comfort Fluttershy.

“T-thank you.” Fluttershy said, relieved to hear that someone will look after he daughter.

Cheerilee nods with a smile before the bell rings loudly and an army of colts and fillies rush into the classroom. “G-guess I better get g-going now.” Fluttershy said before walking over to Kipo and giving her a hug. “B-bye Kipo.”

“Bye momma.” Kipo said as she returned the hug. Fluttershy then gave the girl a kiss on the forehead before leaving.

Some of the children giggle at Fluttershy kissing Kipo’s forehead while others are slowly getting in their seats. Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle join Kipo around her desk. “Wow, she let you join us in school! That's great!” Sweetie said.

“Yeah! You can show the whole class about-”

“Scoots, maybe don’t tell the whole class about what Kipo can do? Especially if you don’t know if she’s ok with it.” Applebloom whispered, cutting off Scootaloo's sentence.

Kipo looks down, nervous. “Mom said I should try not to… it might scare the others.”

“What?! But you look so awesome though! Not as awesome as Rainbow Dash of course but still awesome!” Scootaloo said,

“Scoots, maybe miss Shy is right, I mean, not a lot of ponies would think what Kipo does is awesome.” Sweetie Belle said and Applebloom nodded in agreement.

"But it's unfair that Kipo has to hide an awesome side to her! Not that she isn't awesome already." Scootaloo said.

“It’s o-ok Scoots. I-I don't mind.” Kipo said, giving her friend a small smile of reassurance, showing that she was fine not showing off her jaguar powers.

“I still think the whole class would love to see it.” Scootaloo said huffing.

“What would the whole class love to see?” An annoyingly smug voice was heard behind the girls.

The three fillies let out groans of annoyances while Kipo looked behind her in confusion, seeing a pink filly with a purple and white mane and tail and a tiara on her head. “Um, hi?” Kipo said, wondering who this filly was and why her friends acted like that towards her.

The filly flinched back from Kipo. “Eeew who let their pet into the school.”

“Pet?” Kipo asked then looked around, wondering who would bring their pet to school, besides her of course but she had a good reason for that.

“Kipo is not a pet.” Applebloom said angrily. “She’s our friend.”

“Oh of course you would bring a dirty animal to school with you, Applebroom.” The pink filly said with a smirk. “What's the matter, so hard to make friends, you had to dress up a hairless monkey and bring it to school?”

“But I’m n-not a monkey.” Kipo said, a bit hurt at the filly’s words.

“Yeah, she’s an awesome jaguar!” Scootaloo said, getting in the filly’s face. “So you better watch out Diamond Tiara!”

“U-um Scoots?” Kipo said, trying to keep Scootaloo from making false threats on her behalf as she is not one for violence but the filly was too busy dealing with Diamond Tiara to hear her.

“A jaguar? What now you make up animals Scootaloser?” Diamond said, laughing at her.

“A-actually a jaguar does exist, j-just doesn’t live in E-Equestria, at least that's w-what momma told me.” Kipo said, making Diamond Tiara look at her, making the half jaguar girl shrink back a bit.

Diamond scoff. “So you taught it how to talk, whatever. It still is a freak.” She then turns away from them and sits at her desk.

The three fillies glare at Diamond but then hear sniffling and turn to see Kipo beginning to tear up due to what Diamond Tiara said about her. “I-I’m not a f-freak…” she said sadly,

The three girls hug Kipo. “Don’t listen to her, she is a mean bully that messes with everypony.” Sweetie Belle said.

“B-but why?” Kipo asked them, a few tears escaping her eyes.

“We don’t know, it's just the way she is Ah suppose.” Applebloom said before some soft knocking was heard. When they looked where it was coming from Cheerilee was standing at her desk.

“Alright students, please take your seats, class is about to start.” She said with a smile. All the colts and fillies listened as they began to sit in their seats and waited for Cheerilee to begin teaching. The day went on for Kipo, mostly boring sitting in the classroom but some things she did enjoy learning about. But every now and then Diamond would try to mess with her, throwing balls of paper at her, making hissing sounds, even trying to get her in trouble for passing notes.

But Kipo managed to bear it the entire time and did her best to ignore Diamond Tiara, but it was getting more and more difficult with each passing second and she can feel something in the back of her mind telling her to teach the filly a lesson. ’N-no, momma raised me better than that.’ Kipo thought to herself, pushing back the violent thoughts as best as she could.

Luckily for her, the bell rang, signaling it was time for lunch. “Come on Kipo, join us for lunch.” Sweetie Belle said, pulling on Kipo.

“Ok, but you don’t need to pull, I was gonna ask to eat lunch with you.” Kipo said though she had a small smile on her face.

“Of course you can join us silly!” Scootaloo said laughing.

“We are the four uh..hmm we need a group name.” Applebloom said and that made the others begin thinking up group names for their little group.

“The four crusaders?” Kipo suggested as they sat at a table outside.

“What are crusaders?” Scootaloo asked as she opened a paper bag lunch.

“Um, momma told me what it was but I think I forgot. But it sounds cool. Right?” Kipo asked her three friends as she pulls open her lunchbox, seeing her favorite sweet, a raspberry cupcake, inside of it.

“Alright! It does sound cool enough for me.” Scootaloo said as she started eating her peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Kipo smiled knowing that she helped her friends come up with a name for their little group. “So what are we gonna do after school?” she asked them.

The group of fillies hum in thought. “We could go to Sugarcube Corner and get some snacks.” Sweetie Belle suggested.

“We could set up a cool obstacle course for me to practice my scooter on.” Scootaloo suggested.

“We could go play in the park.” Applebloom suggested.

“Oh yes all those ideas sound so…lame!” Diamond said as she walked up while smirking. “Don’t you know how to have fun? I say you chain this freak up and get ponies to pay to see it.”

“B-but I’m not a freak.” Kipo said sadly while Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle glared at Diamond Tiara.

“Hey! Leave her alone you big bully!” Scootaloo shouted angrily.

“Stay out of this Scootaloser. If you don’t want to make bits then stay out of my way.” She starts walking towards Kipo.

But the three fillies block her path. “She ain’t somethin y’all can use to make bits!” Applebloom said, “She’s a living being like the rest of us and our friend! So leave her alone!”

Diamond Tiara rolled her eyes. “Oh please, look at it! It is some kind of hairless monkey!”

“She is not a monkey! So stay away from her or else we’ll tell miss Cheerilee about what you’re gonna do!” Scootaloo warned, none of the three fillies noticing Kipo running away, tears in her eyes due to the hurtful words of Diamond Tiara. Only Tiara noticed this and chose to remain silent about it.

Diamond Tiara scoffs and smirks. “I did nothing wrong.” She then turns to walk around the girls heading for the large tree that had grown next to the school.

“Nothing wrong?! Why I outta-” Scootaloo began before Sweetie Belle spoke up.

“Hey, where’s Kipo?” Sweetie Belle asked as she looked around, getting her friends attention as they looked around for Kipo, finally noticing that she was gone.

“Kipo?” Applebloom calls out looking around.

“Kipo?!” Scootaloo shouted in worry. “Where did she go?!”

“We gotta find her! Who knows how much trouble she will get into if Diamond Tiara finds her!” Sweetie Belle said then the three fillies ran off in different directions while Diamond Tiara snickered to herself as she continued walking over to the tree and looked around for her target.

Diamond Tiara then looks up the tree and giggles darkly. “Just like a monkey to run up a tree, come down here before I get mad.” She said up to Kipo, who had managed to climb the tree thanks to her now formed claws in order to hide from Diamond Tiara.

“I-I’m not a monkey.” Kipo said quietly and sadly as she continues to climb up the tree with her claws, trying to get away from the bully..

“Yes you are monkey! Now get down here so I can make fun of you more!” Diamond said with a cruel laugh.

Kipo looks at Diamond with sad eyes as tears stream down her face before she continues to climb to escape the insults of Diamond Tiara. She grabbed a branch and attempted to pull herself up but it snapped and she let go of it in surprise. “Look out!” Kipo shouted as the branch fell towards Diamond. The colts and fillies around the tree see the branch fall down and hit Diamond and they gasp. Kipo went wide-eyed as she watched Diamond Tiara shout in pain before jumping down in front of her, a worried look on her face. “O-oh my gosh! I-I am so sorry! I s-swear I had no i-idea that branch would break!” Kipo said to Tiara.

“Liar! You did that on purpose you idiotic, hairless monkey, freak!” Diamond yelled while holding her face with a hoof.

“B-but I didn’t..” Kipo said, backing up a bit from Tiara.

Diamond stomps closer. “You did! When I tell Miss Cheerilee and my daddy you will be taken away and thrown in the dungeons!” She yells as she pokes Kipo’s chest. The thought of being taken away from her mother and being locked up in the dungeons made Kipo very afraid as she turned to run. “Oh no you don’t!” she heard Diamond Tiara shout before Kipo felt something step on her tail.

Kipo let out a pained and angered yowl as she whirled around and clawed at the filly, making her scream in pain as she off Kipo's tail. Kipo looked at the shocked and fearful face of Diamond Tiara, now sporting three small claw marks on her cheek, with anger while growling before realizing what she did. “O-oh no…I…I-I...” Kipo began before fear clouded her mind and she turned and began to run away with tears streaming down her face.

Fluttershy lets out a sigh of relief as she gave Harry his food, being the last of her animals that need to be fed. “There, that should be the last of you.” Fluttershy said with a smile then looked at the clock. “Hm, it should be lunchtime at the school, maybe I can-” a sudden bang was heard followed by a cry.

“Momma!” The next thing Fluttershy knew, she was tackled into a hug by a crying Kipo. “I didn’t m-mean it, momma! It w-was an accident I-I swear!” cried Kipo as she sobbed into Fluttershy’s fur.

Fluttershy was shocked at first but then hugged Kipo with her hooves and wings. “Didn’t do what? What happened? Why are you crying sweetie? And why aren't you in school?”

“I-I didn’t mean it! D-don’t let them s-send me to the dungeons! Please!” Kipo begged, holding on tighter to Fluttershy.

A bolt of fear runs through Fluttershy's heart at the mention of someone taking Kipo away but she tries to remain calm and hugs her daughter tighter. “Sweetie, I can't help if you don’t tell me what happened.”

“I-I hurt someone….I d-didn’t mean to…it just h-happened!” Kipo said, shocking Fluttershy.

Fluttershy rubs Kipo’s back and whispers kind words to try and calm her down. ‘Oh no, was it too soon to send her to school? Maybe I didn't teach her the right way to behave, o-or maybe she is just overreacting. Kipo has never hurt anyone before.’

Kipo’s sobs were starting to die down until they were only hiccups and sniffles. “P-please don’t let them t-take me to the d-dungeons momma. Please.” begged Kipo.

“I would never let that happen. Now try to tell me exactly what happened?” Fluttershy said, still comforting her daughter.

Kipo sniffled a bit, “I-I was eating l-lunch with my friends, t-then a mean filly c-came and said mean s-stuff about me. L-like how I was p-pet, a freak, a-and that I should b-be tied up so ponies c-can pay to see me.” Kipo said with fresh tears beginning to form in her eyes.

Fluttershy hugs her daughter tighter as her eyes glow slightly with anger. “That…isn’t nice, what happened next?”

“I ran a-away from the filly a-and climbed up a t-tree, but she found me a-and told me t-to get down so s-she can make fun of m-me.” Kipo said as she held on tighter. “I-I didn’t listen and c-climbed up even higher b-but then I accidentally broke a-a branch and it hit her a-and when I tried to apologize s-she said I was gonna g-get taken away and put in the d-dungeons. I got scared a-and tried to leave b-but she stepped on my tail and I-I….” Kipo paused at that and began sobbing again. “I scratched h-her cheek!”

Fluttershy does her best to calm Kipo as she looks out a window. “I will never let anypony take you away, but you know you will have to apologize for scratching her, right? I know she stepped on your tail first but hurting somepony is never right.”

“I-I know…but I g-got so scared that I-I was gonna be taken from y-you.” Kipo said, shaking a little at the thought of being taken away from the only family she's had.

“I know sweetie, but you have to be brave and trust me ok?” Fluttershy asked, making Kipo look at her.

Kipo sniffles a bit. “O-ok.” she said, slowly nodding her head before there was a knock on the door, making Kipo whimper a bit and cling to her mother.

Fluttershy stood up and kept Kipo hidden under her wing as she walked up to the door and opened it enough to peek through. “Yes?”

She went wide-eyed when she saw Spoiled Rich and four guards next to her, “Where is that abomination of yours?!” Spoiled all but shouted. “That thing hurt my daughter!”

Fluttershy frowns behind the door before sighing and opening the door slowly. “I heard about what happened, Kipo will apologize but you're not taking my daughter.”

“That thing is a menace to society and needs to be thrown in the dungeons!” Spoiled shouted angrily. “Besides, you can always find another freak to play pretend with.”

Fluttershy’s nostrils flared as she tried to keep herself calm. “Do not talk about my daughter like that…Mrs. Rich. I told you my daughter will apologize but no one is taking. My. Daughter.”

“Oh do stop pretending that thing is your daughter, it’s an abomination that should be kept far away from us ponies. You can always get a real daughter when you find a suitable husband.” Spoiled said, making Fluttershy even angrier.

Fluttershy closes her eyes to try to calm down. ‘She is just an upset mother, she doesn’t mean it, she doesn’t mean it, she doesn’t me-’ She is brought out of her thoughts by Spoiled.

“Honestly, what kind of sane pony would believe a freak would be their daughter? It should have just stayed in the Everfree where it belongs.” Spoiled said foolishly, causing Fluttershy to nearly snap. Fluttershy’s eyes snap open in rage barely stopping herself from hurting Spoiled. She then noticed that all the guards were looking away in different directions, even their ears were pointed away from the two mares.

“Now, step aside so the guards can get rid of that pest for you.” Spoiled said as she made a go-away motion with her hoof, expecting Fluttershy to do so.

Fluttershy looks at Spoiled a hard look. “No, I will protect my daughter from anypony. I want you to leave now. I will have Kipo apologize to your daughter at school under Cheerilee’s supervision, until then leave my daughter alone.”

“Do not make this harder on yourself, that thing is going to the dungeons.” Spoiled said as her eyes narrowed at the mare while all of Fluttershy's animal friends began to come out.

Fluttershy steps forward putting their muzzles up against each other. “You will not threaten my daughter. Kipo is a good girl, and your daughter was bullying her! What Kipo did was wrong but she was backed into a corner. Now leave us alone before I do something very…unkind.” It was at this moment all the animals inside and around Fluttershy’s home started to growl and glare at Spoiled Rich.

Spoiled backed up a bit in fear as the animals and Fluttershy glared at her, it was honestly frightening due to the fact that nearly all the animals are small adorable creatures, minus Harry the bear. She then regained her composure and scoffs. “I have more important things to do than deal with a crazy mare and her freak of a ‘daughter’.” Spoiled said as she begins to walk away with her nose stuck up in the air.

Fluttershy stayed firm before Spoiled Rich left then she almost collapsed, if not for Kipo still beside her she would have. “I am sorry ma’am.” One of the guards said. “We just had to follow orders, she does help fund the school and did bring up a real concern. A guard will be near the school to keep an eye on all the students. We promise to be fair.”

Fluttershy nodded her head, though she was a bit worried about guards being near the school and Kipo, but she pushed that worry aside since it wasn't an important topic at the moment. “I-I understand.” Fluttershy said, nodding her head.

The guard sighs and turns to leave. “Come on guys, let’s get back so we can do the paperwork.”

“What do you mean we? You’re the one that is in charge.” Another guard.

“Yeah, plus you are the one that-” The rest of the conversation is drowned out as all the animals come to hug Fluttershy and Kipo.

“T-they’re not gonna t-take me away?” Kipo asked, looking up at Fluttershy, her eyes red and puffy due to her crying so much.

Fluttershy hugs Kipo harder. “No, never. I want you to go to school tomorrow and apologize to the filly, and no matter what she does, don't react to her ok?”

“O-ok momma.” Kipo said, though internally she really didn’t want to interact with Diamond Tiara again.

Fluttershy then takes her back inside and up to her room. “You just lay down and relax.”

“Yes m-momma.” Kipo said before getting her bed, then her eyes widened. “Oh no! I left Angel and my bag at school!”

Fluttershy’s eyes widened. “Oh dear…um…I will go get him after making you something to eat.”

“Ok.” Kipo said and just before Fluttershy left to go make something for Kipo, the girl said, “I’m sorry momma.”

“I know sweetie, you just need to learn from this.” She said before leaving the room to get food.

As she was, the door opened again and in walked Angel, pulling Kipo’s bag behind him. ‘Where Kipo cub? Kipo cub left me behind!’ squeaked Angel in annoyance. 'Angel bunny had to drag bag halfway through town!'

Fluttershy quickly walks over and nuzzles Angle. “Oh Angel, I am glad you are ok, unfortunately Kipo ran into a bully at lunch. Do you think you could go join her in her room and help cheer her up?”

Angel went wide-eyed but nodded his head. ‘Ok, I’ll go cheer up Kipo cub.’ he squeaked before hopping up the stairs before Mandu ran up them as well. Fluttershy sighs before making Kipo a simple snack and brings it up to her.

In her room, she saw Kipo holding Angel close to her with Mandu snuggled up to her, a guilty and saddened expression on her face. “Hi momma..” she sadly said, not looking at the mare which made Fluttershy saddened to see Kipo in such a state.

She walks over and sets the plate down and hugs Kipo. “You know I am not mad at you right sweetie?” Kipo nodded her head and Fluttershy kissed the top of her head before getting up. “I am going to go speak to my friends about this, see if their sisters saw what happened.”

“Ok.” Kipo said and Fluttershy sighed as she left Kipo’s room and made her way downstairs,

“Please keep an eye on her.” Fluttershy told her animals and they let out responses that they will, making her smile a bit before leaving. After walking a bit, she saw Rainbow Dash relaxing on a cloud just a bit above the ground. “Rainbow D-Dash, can I talk t-to you please?” she called out to her friend.

“Hmm?” Rainbow looks over the side of the cloud and see's her friend. “What's up Shy?”

“I-it’s about Kipo.” Fluttershy said, and that was more than enough to cause Rainbow to fly down to her, a worried look on her face.

“What's up? Did the kid get hurt or something? Wait..isn’t school still going on?” Rainbow looked up at the sun. “Yep, she should still be in class.”

“T-that’s the thing. Kipo w-was being bullied at school a-and….something bad h-happened.” Fluttershy said which only turned Rainbow's worry into anger.

“What!? Who was it? Scoots didn’t do it, did she?” She asked as she narrows her eyes.

“No! I-it wasn’t Scootaloo. I-it was Spoiled R-Rich’s daughter.” Fluttershy said.

Rainbow was confused a bit before she remembered and frowned. “Oh her, Scoots has told me about her. What do you want to do?”

“I-I just want to t-talk with the rest o-of the girls so we c-can decide what we should d-do.” Fluttershy said and Rainbow Dash nodded her head.

“Right! I will go get them, meet at your place or Rairity’s?” Rainbow asked as her wings flapped.

“Rarity’s.” Fluttershy said, feeling like Kipo would be tired after today’s events so having ponies talking downstairs might not be a good idea right now, considering how loud a couple of her friends can be.

“Right, you head there while I get everypony else.” Rainbow said before flying away in a rainbow blur, kicking up dust that made Fluttershy cough.

Fluttershy lets out a sigh before spreading her wings, figuring she would fly there instead of walk. She got to Rarity’s boutique after fifteen minutes of flying, she knocked on the door, waiting for Rarity to answer. The door opens and Rarity smiles at her friend. “Fluttershy darling, what brings you here? Kipo didn’t rip another shirt did she?”

Fluttershy shook her head. “No, s-she didn’t, but we do n-need to talk about something t-that happened at h-her school.”

“Oh dear, come inside.” Rarity steps aside and lets her in, just as Rainbow lands next to Fluttershy.

“Told them, they should be here in a few minutes.” Rainbow said.

Fluttershy nodded her head as the three walked inside, blinking in surprise when they see Pinkie inside, waiting for them. “P-Pinkie? How did y-you get here?” Fluttershy questioned the overly pink mare.

“Dashie told me something happened so I zipped right over, after letting the Cakes know of course.” Pinkie said with a giggle.

“B-but I just saw you!” Rainbow Dash said before shaking her head. “Know what, no, it’s Pinkie, deal with it.”

Pinkie just giggles and gives Rainbow a cupcake she got out of her mane. “Don’t worry Dashie I am sure with our help Fluttershy’s problem will be solved.”

“W-well we have to w-wait for Applejack to get h-here before we can talk a-about it.” Fluttershy said and everyone finally noticed that Fluttershy was distraught.

“Alright.” Pinkie said as she stopped giggling, seeing how upset Fluttershy is.

There was a knock on the door and Rarity went to go answer it, seeing Applejack on the other side. “Hey y’all, hope Ah made it in time.” Applejack said as she was let in, “So, Dash told me there was a problem with Kipo?”

Fluttershy nodded her head. “Y-yes, there was.”

“Don’t keep us waiting darling, what happened?” Rarity asked with the others nodding and asking Fluttershy to tell them.

Fluttershy sighed as she began to tell her friends what had happened, suffice to say, they were shocked that Kipo would hurt someone, even if it was out of self defense it was still shocking, and angry with Spoiled Rich for all the stuff she said about Kipo. “A-and that’s what h-happened.” Fluttershy said, finishing retelling what had happened.

“That ain't right. Now don’t get me wrong, Ah agree Kipo should be punished but not taken from ya, let alone thrown in the dungeons.” Applejack said, more than upset with Spoiled for trying to seprate a family.

Rainbow growled as she punched her hooves together. “Just let me at that Spoiled mare, I'll teach her a lesson!”

Rarity looks down in thought. “I think we should speak with Sweetie Belle, Applebloom and Scootaloo, see what they saw, and if there is anything we can actually do.”

Pinkie was sobbing large waterfall tears. “Poor Kipo! She just wanted some more friends!”

“I-I’m worried that Spoiled m-might do something t-to Kipo when I’m not l-looking.” Fluttershy said worriedly.

“Don’t you worry Shy! You have us and the fillies to keep an eye on her.” Rainbow said, then there was a tap on glass.

Everyone looked over to see a hummingbird repeatedly tapping against the window, Fluttershy went over and opened the window and the hummingbird flew inside, chirping quickly. “W-what’s wrong?” Fluttershy asked it.

It tweeted quickly as it panted. ‘Strange pony break in, take young one, Angel Bunny tell this one to tell you!’

“What did it say Shy?” Rainbow asked, leaning closer.

Fluttershy was just quiet, her eyes wide in terror. “K-Kipo….she was t-taken…” she said slowly as she looked down at the ground before her eyes slowly narrowed in anger before she began to transform, much to the shock of all her friends. Her eyes changed from blue to blood red while her wings started to change from a pegasus feathered wing into a bat’s leathery wing. Her coat, mane, and tail darkened a bit as her ears started to become pointed and the final change happened to her teeth as two of them started to grow and sharpen until she had two vicious looking fangs.

"Someone took. My. Daughter!!"
