When a Door Closes a New One Opens

Today is an interesting day. There is smoke coming from the mountain west of Ponyville. And from what Princess Celestia told me was that it was coming from a dragon. Dragon’s aren’t allowed to breathe smoke so close to Equestrian settlements and so it is our duty as the elements of harmony to convince him to leave.

I noticed that Fluttershy seemed a bit concerned about what we were doing and so I decided to talk to her.

“Hey Fluttershy everything alright?” I asked dearly to my friend.

“It’s fine Twilight it’s just oh I’m so afraid of confrontation.” Fluttershy admitted.

“Look I know it’s tough but he can’t be allowed to cause all this smoke in our settlement I’m sure there are plenty of other places he can rest but if we don’t act now Celestia might have to send the royal guard.” I said with concern.

“The royal guard oh that must be prevented.” Fluttershy said sounding a little more confident then before I’m glad our little talk helped.

We then got to the dragon’s den and saw a large dragon resting. I approached quietly not wanting to startle or anger him.

“Sir.” I said.

I tried talking to him but that didn't work. He then blew smoke at me and I realized he was actually still asleep

Rainbow Dash then flew over and kicked him and he camed out of the cave and used his magic to knock most of us out save Fluttershy. I then saw something that I didn’t expect.

“How dare you.” Fluttershy said quietly. “How dare you!” Fluttershy yelled.

“ You listen just because your big doesn't mean you get to act like that. If you don't move because of your snoring you will only put more Equestrians at danger. I am only doing this for the good of Equestria and my friends as well as your own good because the royal gaurd might go after a dragon who becomes a health hazard to Equestria." Fluttershy said.

“A health hazard I thought that I had control of my snoring. I guess I was wrong. I’ll leave and thank you I can take things a bit offensively too sometimes and I needed that.” The older dragon said.

The dragon and Fluttershy would grow to become fast friends apparently the dragon was an activist for dragon rights and Fluttershy fully supports that and they both seem to have a love for defending all live’s creatures the dragon was even a vegetarian. Which I found to be very impressive.

I couldn’t believe it. This shy and kind hearted mare was standing up for herself. I am so proud of her.
