It all starts with a bare-bones situation

Chapter 2: My first experience of being a found cat

Previous Chapter

First, droplets of water bounced off the skin of the shoulders, causing a slight chill and a sense of novelty and delight, and then this faint coldness gradually spread into sheets. By that time, people already felt terrible, and then the rain poured down from the sky, unrelentingly pouring down on everyone.

Usually, when this happens, I exclaim and walk quickly under cover, perhaps under the eaves of a roadside shop, or behind the glass of some shopping mall, or in more fortunate cases, I hide at home ...... and then, with great interest, enjoy the world in the rain.

It will never be like this, standing shivering in the rain like a stripped-down chicken, defenceless against it.

Moving towards the shade while naked was nothing more than the difference between more rain and less rain —— there was no difference, this forest may look dense but in reality, the gaps between the branches and leaves were enormous, I looked up to get this information and gave up the act of hiding from the rain.

It looks like it's destined to be a terrible day…… I feel pretty bad about what happened to me.

But once again, to my surprise, a heat source suddenly came forward.

"I'm sorry ...... please allow me to ...... sorry ......" it was Fluttershy who cooed vaguely as he approached me.

It felt like a big ball of warm soft fur was coming to me, and my skin tingled slightly from the touch of the fuzz.

Fluttershy squatted next to me, that creamy yellow body pressed against my side, I could feel a constant stream of heat coming through, and his fur was moistened, but it wasn't bad at all and brought me a feeling of reassurance.

Who would refuse the closeness of a cat?

He then straightened his upper body, and for a moment surprisingly made the height slightly more than me. I could feel the raindrops falling on my body decrease.

The creamy yellow pony lowered his head, once again showing those beautiful eyes, and he stretched out his two front hooves, with the front fur of these two upper limbs, gently, budding over my soaked shoulders, and the next thing I knew, I could no longer feel any blows of the rain, and at the same time I felt a shadow envelop me.

Looking up, it turned out to be a huge plume.

The feathers on those wings are lined up very neatly, one on top of the other, trembling slightly in mid-air with the owner's movements. The colour of the feathers deepened with the rain, so the weight the Fluttershy had to bear must have increased. But the feathers on top of the head firmly cover that piece of sky, as if whatever happens will not let it move away.

The world suddenly became quiet, the surrounding scenery was haloed by the rain into a blur, I can only hear the rain fall on the piece with a gentle colour of the feathers of the crisp " pop ", I can only see the bright green eyes half hidden by the tender pink hair.

The body of the pony close to the side of my body rose and fell slowly with his breathing, and I suddenly felt a touch of shyness about it when I was not aware of it.

It was a kind of long-lost, the embarrassment of being taken care of by the heart of someone you don't know well ...... with a little happiness.

We both looked at each other as if someone had pressed the pause button, giggling, but it didn't last long, and with a sneeze from me, and the snot I felt hanging down my mouth, the quiet world returned to the noise, I heard the rain slapping the trees again, the whining of the birds ...... and the laughter of the Fluttershy.

"Oh, bless you ......" winked the Fluttershy, he approached his upper body towards me and lifted one front hoof to naturally wipe my face for me, as if I were wiping my just home from the outside cat, then his forelimbs were placed on the ground and regained his footing, though still maintaining the posture of one side with wings spread wide and firmly over my head.

" Please let me take you to my home ...... Ms. Smith, you must be in need of a blanket right now." With the yellow pony's words, we began to move again, the difference is that this time I was willingly close to him —— I can so need this "umbrella".

Fluttershy now also looks drenched, absorbing the water of the soft pink mane thoroughly sticking to his measured cheeks, the fur is also wet, unlike the furry feeling brought before, at this moment is smooth. But he walks in the woods with the same calm and unhurried movements as always.

I was envious of this, and the ground that was starting to get sticky under my feet was starting to make me uncomfortable. To divert my attention, I looked at the stallion that was leading me forward.

I had already had speculation before, it turned out that the pile bulging up on the side of Fluttershy was really his collected wings, he really was a Pegasus as I remembered ...... I just couldn't help but be curious and opened my mouth and asked, "Excuse me, can you fly?"

I wasn't sure if my question was offensive to a Pegasus, because Fluttershy responded as gently and patiently as before, "Yes, I have wings, so, of course, I can fly." Fluttershy said, opened the wings on the other side of his body, flapped them like a display for a few seconds and then retracted them.

"Wow!" I sighed, this is really a childhood dream come true, if I still have the "life achievement list" I wrote when I was a kid, I would have checked the "meet the Pegasus" line. And even adults are curious, so I thought back to the animation for a moment and then asked, "So do all the other ponies on your companion ...... have wings?"

"Not really, the ponies are Pegasus like me, Unicorns with magic horns, and Earth ponies ...... that have neither wings nor horns," Fluttershy answered me as if responding to a child full of questions, "but the Earth ponies are born with a special affinity for the land, and the plants that are tended by them grow faster, stronger, and healthier than those in the wild. " His voice came clearly through the rain.

"So that's how it is." I maintained the posture of my arms around my chest, thinking while walking after Fluttershy. This answer was completely in line with the setting in my own memory, and the increased awareness of this world also made me feel safer.

This means that this world is not only living in a group called ponies that formed a civilization but there may also be many strange magical creatures, such as dragons or gryphons or something.

Then the good news can be presumed: along with the magic generated must be some magical items, and now, I have to find the props that can help me return home ...... I am sure that props with similar functions do exist, but now I can not recall how they look and their effectiveness.

Ah ...... If time can be turned back, I really want to give a hard slap to myself who only knows how to play with the phone while watching TV.

"We're here." The gentle voice pulled me back from my thoughts and I could feel Fluttershy touch my arm that had started to tremble at some point with one of his front hooves, and with his words, what was introduced to my eyes was a fine forest hut on a gentle hillside in the distance.

There was a small river flowing merrily in front of the house, and the front door of the cottage was not far in front of the delicate little arched bridge. The walls of the cottage appeared to be made of yellow bricks, and the roof was covered with layers of intertwined green vegetation that I couldn't name, and only an equally lovely chimney could be seen coming out of those plants.

By this time, I felt I was already a little shaky, my head was gradually getting dazed, and my body was weakening little by little.

I understand that this is after receiving the message that a safe shelter has appeared, the previously tense nerves can finally relax, and the body that has been strongly held up will follow. But the strong idea of not wanting to bother others still prevented me from just collapsing —— at least I didn't want to cause more trouble for Fluttershy.

Obviously, my body is not listening to me now, I can only feel my feet getting heavier and heavier, kneeling towards the front with both knees, I instinctively stretch my arms to try to hold myself up.

Just then, I felt a piece of fleece brush the side of my waist, my right hand involuntarily looped around the neck of the stallion that came up to me, and then, at the same moment I felt the rain drip back down on me, an unfamiliar touch swept over the other side of my body, and there were soft wings pushing me towards the pony.

I was half-hanging on a friendly pony that I had not long befriended, and because I had just almost fallen, my whole face was buried in Fluttershy's soaked mane, which smelled of rain in the pink.

"Ms. Smith, it's okay, we're almost there." Fluttershy's words of concern came from overhead, and I shot up again, standing up straight and sliding my hand down his neck to his back, carefully handing over part of my body weight to the other man.

In order to take care of me, Fluttershy did not directly lead me to run up, but fast walked across this section of the road, until the front of the house did not stop, directly with the head to open the wooden door.

After entering the cabin, I really do not have the energy to survey the house's installed constant, I only remember that I obediently listened to the Fluttershy and sat down on a piece of soft stuff, followed by a heavy blanket he used to wrap me in a circle from head to toe.

In the daze, I drank the hot sweet liquid fed to me, I could feel my long hair being carefully and gently wiped dry again, before closing my eyes into complete darkness, my last remaining consciousness only had time to remember the creamy yellow stallion full of worry looking over the lake green eyes.
