Your favorite fluffy critters become ponies!

Am i seeing this right? FEATURED on January 9th, 2014!

The characters of Happy Tree Friends become ponies.

Happy Tree Friends and My Little Pony crossover.
Flaky-Centric in most chapters, but not all.
Story will contain at least a bit of gore(Come on, it IS Happy Tree Friends!), and may contain couples of both gay and straight orientation in the future. Might get the 'romance' , 'adventure' and 'slice of life' tags in the future, depending on how the story goes.
Rated TEEN for some gore(Don't worry mods, if it gets bad I will put it as mature, but I'm not sure how much it will have yet), some cussing, and some disturbing and some suggestive themes.

A Portal

It was a warm, summer evening with a light breeze. It was warm, but not unbearably hot - the nice type of weather that made you sleepy. The world was seemingly perfect. Birds chirped out a well-practiced song while foals played in the park, their parents falling asleep on benches or having idle chats with friends.

One of the ponies who was not out enjoying the beautiful, wonderful evening was Twilight Sparkle. Inside of her library, she was attempting an experiment. of sorts. She had been holed up in there for days, and it was now, finally, coming to fruition. Five ponies and a baby dragon watched as she ran around, making last minute checks on her machine and muttering scientific things to herself that none of them could understand.

"So, this will really bring ponies here from another dimension?" Pinkie asked. She was getting extremely exited at the though of new ponies. Hopefully, they'd be friendly! "Yes, Pinkie." Twilight said, in reply to the pink party pony. "If everything goes according to plan, ponies from another dimension will fall through this portal." She said, turning to look at the large portal in the middle of her contraption. "OOOH! I'll have to host a party for their arrival!" Pinkie said, bouncing up and down from excitement.

"Now, Rarity, Will you help me power this up?" Twilight asked, her horn beginning to glow."All right, dear." Rarity said, starting to concentrate her magic on the machine. With the two unicorns magic being pumped into it, it soon turned on, a red glow appearing in the portal. The glow soon turned more solid, becoming a mass of swirling red colors in the middle of the machine, and the smell of burnt flesh and burnt mayonnaise filled the room.

A crackling sound came. It was quiet at fist, but it slowly got louder and louder, until it was the only think that could be heard in the room. And then...Silence. Complete, utter silence. No one was even breathing. And then it happened.

A writhing mass of equine bodies came tumbling out of the portal, landing in a heap on the floor. Flashes of all the colors of the rainbow were visible as the mass of ponies tried to separate themselves from each other. Eventually, most of them came apart. Fluttershy let out a soft gasp upon noticing that one of them, and orange Pegasus, was missing half of its front legs. But the end of her soft "oh my..." was cut off my a loud scream from the corner of the newly-arrived body pile.

Every head in the room turned to look at the thin pinkish-red mare, just in time to see a giant puff of thin white flakes go flying into the air off of her mane, which was a slightly less pink red. Her eyes were wide and her pupils small, her mouth wide open. "Why am I a horse!!!" She yelled , clearly freaking out. "You're actually a pony." Came a voice that none of the newcomers knew.

Turning their heads, they realized that they were not, in fact, alone - six ponies and a baby dragon were standing there, staring at them. "You're all ponies." Twilight spoke up again, blinking at them. She then introduced herself, and all of her friends. "Your probably wondering why, and how, your here..." She said, only slightly awkwardly. She received many nods from her newly-ponified guests. "Before you go into any sort of explanation, could you please get me a stool or something?" The orange Pegasus said, from his laying spot on the floor, "That way I can sit up, and have my front legs sitting on it."

Everyone looked at him, and they all realized what a problem he had. He pulled a back hoof up and itched behind his ear, Noticing the seven faces staring at him, he he shrugged. "S'not like I'm not used to it by now." He muttered, turning his head. Twilight levitated a stool up, placing it in front of him. He gave his wings and experimental flap, then used them to help lift his front end up, placing his stumps on the stool. "Oh yeah, and my name is Handy, just so you know." He said, getting his haunches into a comfortable position.

The pinkish-red mare stepped forward at that point, before sitting down next to Handy. "We should probably all introduce ourselves..." She said, shuffling her hooves a bit. She was obviously a bit shy. "I'm Flaky..." She started, reaching a forehoof up and scratching her head, sending a few flakes falling down. Twilight blinked, wondering why, and HOW, she had such thick dandruff, and so much of it. They she realized that the aptly named Flaky had a cutie mark of dandruff flakes. She felt sorry for her. "I'm Flippy." Said a green Pegasus as he stepped up into the now-forming line, a friendly smile on his face. He wore a camo jacket and a military hat, and his cutie mark was a military sign - an orange shield.

Rainbow Dash, who had made it her personal duty to inspect all Pegasi, noted that though he looked skinny and had a nice build, he was all muscle and would probably be very strong and have fairly good stamina. As Flippy sat down, a purple unicorn colt with white face pain on jumped up next to him, giving an energetic fave and a big smile, before sitting down. His cutie mark was a ball, with white face paint on it and a big smiley face. Flippy chuckled. "This is Mime. He doesn't speak, so I wouldn't expect anything vocal out of him. I don't think he's spoken a word since he was a baby."

Pinkie smiled big, waving back at the mime pony. Next up was a blue....Unicorn? All seven equestrians stared quizzically as he came up, and sat down in line, an idiotic grin on his face. "Hello. I'm Lumpy." He introduced himself, nodding stupidly. He 1420would have looked like an earth pony, except for the two moose-like horns sticking off the sides of his head, one of which was upside-down. They all silently agreed on calling him a unicorn, until further notice.

Next came a yellow Pegasus colt with a skateboard cutie mark. He was wearing a yellow jacket, just a few shades lighter than his fur, with bunny ears on it. He sat next to Mime, smiling a cute smile. "I'm Cuddles." He said, shifting his tail behind him, unused to actually having a tail that was movable. Next, a pink mare came up and sat next to cuddles. Her cutie mark was three bubble-like hearts. "I'm Giggles. " she said, with a small giggle to punctuate it, leaning her head on Cuddle's shoulder.

A blue mare came up and sat next to giggles, but not before checking the ground for any speck of dirt first. "I'm Petunia. " She said, her voice light and a bit breezy. Her cutie mark was three petunias, each with a small vine sticking off of it. Around her neck she wore a pine-tree shaped air freshener.

A pale purple mare with a very puffy, wooly-looking mane came up and sat next to her. She was gently holding a pickle in her mouth. Setting t down between her forelegs, she pulled her head back up and smiled. "I'm Lammy," She said, before looking back down at her pickle, "And this is Mr.Pickles." She said, ignoring the strange looks she got.

Next came a pale purple unicorn with a pink mane and tail.He wore round, black glasses, had a small mole beside his eye, and, somehow having figured out how to use his magic already, was levitating something that looked like a catch-pole and using it as a walking stick. His cutie mark was those same black glasses and 'walking stick' . He came forward, but in the wrong place, and slammed straight into Cuddles. Twilight winced. Yep - He was most definitely blind. Cuddles sighed, standing up, and walked the blind pony over to the other side of the line, at the beginning, sitting him down on the opposite side of Handy as Flaky, before going back to his own seat and letting Giggles get comfortable again. The blind pony let his ~~catch-pole~~ walking stick drop to the ground with a clang, before speaking up. "I am The Mole." He said, his voice rather feminine, which matched his feminine appearance. He then leaned over and rested his head on Handy's shoulder, making a bit of a cute sight.

Next a bright blue Pegasus stepped up, seeping confidence and vanity out of every pore of his being. "I, am Splendid!" He said with a grin before settling down next to Lammy. His mane and tail were a paler, more icy blue than his body, but not pastel in any way. The only clothing he wore was a red super-hero type eye mask, which was kind of like a blindfold with eye holes in it.

Then, a pair of green twins came up. "Shifty" Said one. "Lifty." Said the other. Shifty was wearing a hat, but other than that, they looked exactly alike. They had raccoon-face-mask marks over there eyes, and their color schemes were the same. They even had the same cutie mark - money signs. Shifty stepped forward and pressed himself between Lammy and Splendid, Chuckling evilly at the blue colt, who tried to edge away from him, but ended up being blocked by Lifty sitting on his other side, fairly close, also chuckling evilly.

The last pony was a bright green earth pony - much brighter than the twins - who was a bit small. he was rather cute, with a young-looking appearance. His mane and tail were a bit darker than his fur, and had bits of candy stuck in them. He also had a candy-cane stuck to his chest, and his cutie mark was candy pieces. His eyes faced two different directions, but not in the same manner as Derpy's. They looked much more crazy than hers, yet still cute, in a way. One of them had a green iris, but the other was missing the iris completely, instead having just a pupil.

Now that they had all introduced themselves, Twilight got down to business. She explained that she had brought them here through a portal, and that they were now in a land called Equestria. She told them that the machine had a five-month cool-down time, and that they would have to stay here until that time. Then she explained to them all about Equestria.

_________________________________________________________________________

After a thorough explanation of the world they would now be living in, It was decided that they would live in Applejack's barn until a better place is found. And so, all the Tree Friend ponies set off for their new home. Flaky,, however, stayed behind for a moment. "T-Twilight...?" She said quietly to the purple mare. "Hmm? What is it, Flaky?" Twilight asked, turning around to the shy red earth pony. "W-wel...There's some things I want you to know about us...Things you need to know.

"I'll start with the simplest...the Mole is blind. I'm guessing you already guessed this, but I thought I'd let you know, just in case. Petunia has OCD. But not normal OCD - she has it REALLY bad. Like, she might kill herself if she can't get clean bad." Flaky explained not pausing when Twilight winced.

"The twins, Shifty and Lifty, are really bad kleptomaniac's. REALLY BAD. And I think that Lumpy might have some kind of mental issue...? Either way, he's unnaturally stupid. Dangerously stupid. His stupidity has gotten people killed or injured before. Splendid is a superhero - or, at least, he thinks he is. He acts like one, anyway. Lammy has an imaginary friend -" Lammy, who had came back to see what was keeping Flaky, sighed and let her ears sag. 'Why does nobody believe me...Mr. Pickles is real...' "- known as Mr. Pickles, and we're not sure exactly whats up with it. Umm...Nutty has a really bad sugar addiction, so we need to keep him well fed on candy. Somehow, he manages to survive eating only sugar, cake, and candy.and he's on a constant sugar high."

Twilight nodded, taking in all the information. Then she saw a dark look pass onto Flaky's face. "There's...One more thing..." The shy red mare said, quietly, before looking up a bit. "Its about Flippy." She said, chewing on her lip slightly. "Oh, the nice veteran stallion?" Twilight asked, receiving a nod from the earth pony in front of her. Flaky, took a deep breath, then began to speak. "He has...Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.Really bad.

"Well, At least we think that's what it is. Either way, its from the war. He developed an alternate personality to help him with the fighting. We call it Fliqpy. It made him a super soldier. Not only did it make him get stronger, it gave him the will to do things that most people wont. Things no sane person would do...COULD do. It saved his life many times. But it got worse and worse over the years, it mutated into a full-on alternate personality - A murderous lunatic that will do anything to survive. Anything...To kill." As Flaky explained the terrible tale, Twilight was having one of those - 'OHGODWHATHAVEIDONE' moments. "So..." She said after a few moments, "We have to worry about him randomly deciding to kill people...?" Flaky shook her head. "Its not exactly random. Whenever he hears or see's things that remind him of the war to much, he flips. Loud tapping noises, most sudden loud things, or anything that goes boom really." She explained, hoping that Twilight wouldn't hold it against him.

They finished up their conversation shortly, and after Flaky made sure(multiple times) that Twilight wouldn't hate the green Pegasus for something that no one could control, she left.

On the way to the barn that she would soon be living in, she couldn't help but think - This is going to be one strange five months...

A New Day

The only sound she heard was gentle breathing all around her as Flaky woke up. She slowly blinked open her eyes, only to find herself in a pile of hay. "Wahh...?" She murmured groggily, sitting up. Or, rather, attempting to. She momentarily began to hyperventilate when she realized she couldn't move her hands, before remembering that she did not, in fact, have hands anymore. She let out a breath, relived that she wasn't dying. Standing up, she pushed aside a pile of dandruff and began to pick her way over the large pile of bodies. Flippy twitched, muttering something about not swallowing grenades, before laying still again.

After successfully walking the minefield, Flaky began to pull the barn door open. "Well howdy, partner." Said Applejack, who had been about come and wake them up. "Aaghhh!" Flaky let out a scream, surprised that someone- err, somepony- was there. A loud thump sounded as Splendid woke up and, in an attempt to 'save' whoever was in distress, flew straight into the ceiling. Flippy sat straight up, ears perked, and stared at Flaky for just a moment too long before shaking his head and beginning to pick pieces of straw out of his tail. Everyone else was sitting up groggily.

Applejack chuckled. "Well, guess ah don't need to make a wakeup call then." She said with a smile. "...Sorry." Flaky muttered, with her signature embarrassed laugh. "Breakfast's ready, everypony!" Applejack yelled, before turning and trotting off, nodding at Flaky over her shoulder as she left.

Slowly but surely, they all began to get up. Well, everyone except Handy, who couldn't get himself up. He ended up hovering over everyone else, looking upset. They all filed out of the barn, and towards the farmhouse. Applejack was waiting outside, plates set on the ground. They all obviously wouldn't fit into the dining room.

They ate, and Applejack told them more about Equestria. Lumpy hit several heads with his horns, apologising each time. Splendid got told to 'shut up by everyone there, even Applejack after awhile, when he wouldn't stop rambling on about saving people. The twins, eventually, ended up choking him with an apple pie and left him to gasp for breath in a corner. Applejack seemed slightly worried by the the violence, which confused Flaky greatly. Wasn't that normal? She thought, before getting distracted by Flippy offering her some of his food, since hers had acquired a pile of dandruff. She smiled, accepted gratefully, and took a small portion of his food. He didn't eat much, anymore, anyways.

After breakfast, they all headed back to the Library, to see if Twilight could get them back home. Handy had to fly above the Mole and direct him, to keep him from running into other ponies. Lammy walked along the back, depressedly, with a pickle on her head. She looked mildly crazy to passers-by. Cuddles found himself depressed that he could not, in fact, skateboard in this form.

Eventually, they reached the library. They all found it a bit weird that someone lived in a library. Except the Mole, who had not yet realized that this was a library. Twilight greeted them with a smile, and let them all in. Lumpy had a hard time getting through the door, since it didn't cross his mind to turn his head sideways until Twilight turned it for him. "Ahh-hahh!" He said, grinning triumphantly and trotting in. Flaky sighed and shook her head.

"Ahh, Miss Twilight?" Flippy asked, politely, as he walked up the the mare. "Yes?" She said, turning around to face him. She wondered if this nice colt could really be crazy, with how nice he was. "Do you have any history books here? I'd like to read one." Twilight smiled. "Yes, of course! Over here..."

In another corner, Cuddles And Giggles lay on a couch together, flipping through some magazines that had been left on the table.Petunia sat next to them, furiously scrubbing dirt off the table.

The Mime stood in a corner, Miming.

Splendid ended up staying in the air, because whenever he landed, the twins began pestering him. They had already stolen three books and were currently sitting on them.

Twilight stared at the odd bunch for a moment, and let out a sigh. "Well, it'll be one weird five months..."

Author's Note

I am terribly sorry for the wait.

I lost my inspiration for this, for awhile. I'm honestly not sure where to make it go. There will be more, I promise, I just may take awhile coming up with a plotline for it.

The Big Enterance

"Hey, Flaky! Come over here!" Flippy called, from his position on top of a rabbit shed. "Look how cute she is!" Flaky looked up from the chicken walking between her legs and smiled.

"Okay, just a second." They were all currently at Fluttershy's house, looking at her animals. It's been three days since they got to Equestria, and they were all getting used to their new bodies. Rainbow Dash and Handy were inside, practicing wing strengthening movements, since he'll be constantly flying for the next five months. Lumpy was trying to un-stick one of his antlers from the chicken coup, Lammy was enjoying a picnic with the Mole, Rarity and Mr.Pickles, and Splendid was hiding in a tree branch, hoping that the twins wouldn't find him. They had been targeting him more than usual, now that they were all equines, and he couldn't get his laser-eyes to work to defend himself. Cuddles and Giggles were cuddling on Fluttershys' couch. Petunia was hiding in the bathroom. The Mime was having a juggling contest with Pinkie. Rainbow dash attempted to move her eyes fast enough to judge. Nutty sat in the kitchen, eating out of the sugar jar while Fluttershy made small attempts to stop him.

The overall fact was that everyone was happy. Flaky noted this as she looked around, before trotting over to Flippy and looking at the young rabbit he was stroking with his hoof. He had the biggest smile on his face. Flaky smiled at the serenity of it all. Peace was such a rare thing back at home.

...She only hoped it would last.

The days moved by quickly, and Flaky found herself quite happy with this new place. She loved the peace they had here. Even the occasional craziness was enjoyable, rather than painful. She really liked it here.

However, the day of the one-week mark, things got out of hand. Or, rather, out of hoof.

Early one morning, Pinkie burst into the barn with a shout. "Good morning everypony!!!!" Pinkie yelled, hopping over Flippy, who woke with a start. She nearly landed on top of the Mole, practically bursting with excitement. "Today, I'm holding a party for you all! Isn't that exiting?!?!" She yelled, bouncing up and down. "Since I didn't get to throw you one when you first got here, I thought, hey, why not throw one now? You absolutely HAVE to have a welcome party! Its practically my job to throw them for every new pony that comes into town! So, at noon, You all can home down to Sugar Cube Corner for a great big welcome party!!!" The pink mare was vibrating by now, a grin splitting her face in half. "Well, I've got to go invite Applejack, so, see you there!" She yelled again, before bouncing out of the barn.

All of the tree friends sat around in confusion. "Uhmmm..." Flaky began, quietly. Her voice still stood out in the post-Pinkie silence. "A party does sound pretty nice, its been a long time since we've had one." Everyone nodded.

"I'm loads of fun at parties!' Splendid boasted, from the rafters where he slept.
Flaky rolled her eyes, but laughed at the same time.

Breakfast went as normal, and Applejack led all the Tree Friends into town to go to the party. It was a mostly private thing - Twilight forced Pinkie not to invite the whole town because she didn't want to have to explain the strange group's arrival - so only the six they had originally met would be there. Flaky was okay with that, though - She had never been to good at making new friends, and the six ponies - plus the baby dragon - were plenty new friends for her.

As they moved through town to get too Sugar Cube Corner, Flaky couldn't help but feel a bit worried, but pushed it into the back of her mind. This couldn't possible go as bad as the last party she had went to. But still...She found herself glancing back at Flippy a couple times, who was in an animated conversation with Splendid. Maybe bringing him to a party wouldn't be a good idea...?

A loud crash interrupted her thoughts. She, out of instinct, flinched and hunched down. She peaked through her eyelids and discovered that a nearby flower selling cart had broken. She peaked at Flippy. He was walking over to help the tan mare pick her flowers up. Flaky stood back up and smiled. Maybe coming here had desensitized flippy. She didn't seem to have anything to worry about.

The setback was only momentary, and they soon reached Sugar Cube Corner. They came through the front doors to find everyone there, and quickly began to spread out and socialize.

"Ooh, Ooh! They're here!" Came a yell from the stairs, where pinkie just dropped the cake she was carrying. Everyone looked up at her. "I have to go get my party cannon!"

For a single moment, time stopped in Flaky's eyes. "No, ahh, Pinkie, please!" She yelled, running towards the stairs. "Not a cannon!"

"Relax, Flaky." Twilight said, "its not a real cannon. It can't hurt anybody."
Flaky shook her head. "No, you don't understand..."

But it was too late.

There was a loud BANG, a louder POP, and confetti flew across the room. Flippy froze. The rest of the Tree Friends froze as well, except for lumpy, who was still eating cake.

His eyes changed color, his mane spiking out slightly and his teeth getting sharper. He let out a deep, dark laugh, spreading his wings wide and preparing for a leap.

Twilight suddenly remembered what Flaky had told her about him.

In a flash, Fliqpy had leaped over the food table and grabbed the cake-cutting knife - The large kind, often used for pizza. He landed square on Lumpy's back, filling the room with the sound of a sickening crunch. Lumpy let out a scream, but was quickly cut off when Fliqpy ran the knife in his mouth across the blue throat. Blood sprayed across the cake and punch bowl, splattering on the opposite wall.

He turned and ran across the room, slashing the knife across Fluttershy's leg as he did so. She let out a pained scream and fell backwards,. straight into Twilight, who had been starting a spell to restrain Fliqpy. Twilight's head hit the corner of a table, knocking her unconscious.

The next one in his path was the Mole, who couldn't figure out what all the commotion was. The knife, ironically enough, went straight through his eye and into his brain, killing him near-instantly. He slumped over, knife still inside.

Flaky was hiding in a corner, nearly hyperventilating out of fear. He was coming her way. She tried to crawl under the table, but it was bucked aside before she could. Yellow eyes, once so kind, stared down at her in crazed excitement. Time slowed down as she saw green forelegs rear up in front of her, powerful hooves ready to crash down into her skull...She closed her eyes and prepared for the inevitable.

Only to find that it never came.

She opened her eyes to see Flippy slumped down in front of her, a blue-wrapped punch bowl floating above him. Rarity had saved the day, from across the room using her magic.

Flaky stood up slowly, whimpered, and then proceeded to faint straight back onto the floor.

Author's Note

Not dead!

The Morning Rush

It took around an hour before any form of civil conversation could be had. Flaky woke up a couple minutes after Twilight, who was wrapping up Fluttershy's foreleg. Flippy had his legs and wings tied together, a sleeping spell placed on him, and was currently in the corner. Those who were not dead gathered in the middle of the room.

Pinkie Pie seemed oddly put out, her hair flat and a pout on her face,. She obviously understood that this was her fault. Fluttershy sat next to her and wrapped a wing around her. "Its okay, Pinkie..Nopony blames you..." She murmured quietly, still in shock.

Twilight turned to Flaky. "Will he be back to normal when he wakes up?" She asked, gesturing to Flippy.

"Yes, He, umm, normally snaps out of it rather quickly." Flaky said, seeming surprisingly unshaken. Twilight assumed she was good in bad situations.

Rarity walked around and checked everyone over, making sure that no one else was hurt. Lumpy and The Mole, however, she avoided. No point checking the dead for life.

She did, however, feel the need to bring it up. "What do we do with...with them?" She asked quietly, looking over at Lumpy's hideously twisted back. Handy spoke up quietly. "We should probably just put hem in the back of the barn, for now. Deal with anything extra in the morning." He looked around at everyone, seeing them all thoroughly shaken up. "I think we all need to get some sleep."

They all seemed to agree, though Applejack wasn't happy about having them in her barn. But, too socked to be as stubborn as usual, she agreed.

The morning came all to soon for the ponies of Ponyville.

They all went over to Applejack's house early that morning, Converging out front before heading to the barn.

They had stopped to talk, but none really knew what to say. Murder hadn't ever happened in Ponyville before. Even in the darkest parts of cities like Manehatten, it was a thing that only showed up one every ten or so years. None of them had ever witnessed it, and none of them knew what to do or say. Rarity fidgeted and shuffled her hooves. Fluttershy's lip quivered while she held her hurt hoof in the air.

Eventually, they all walked to the barn in silence.

What they saw when they opened the door surprised them.

There was Flippy, using one of the barn mops to clean all the blood off Lumpy, who stood there, perfectly alive, with a smile on his face. As if nothing had even happened. The blood and brain matter that still lay on the floor behind him, where they had lain the bodies, told a different tale.

"What in tarnation?"

Both tree friends.looked up. Flippy seemed to shrink back when he saw Fluttershy.

The Mole then popped out of some hay, looking vaguely in their direction with grey eyes, holding his glasses in his mouth. Flaky woke up, struggling to find her legs. "Uh, Huhh...?" She murmured, blinking sleep from her eyes. Upon seeing the ponies in the entrance, she shook the sleep away and walked towards them. "Oh, uhh, thanks for coming. Umm, Fluttershy, how are you? Is your leg better?"

Flaky stared, confused, as the six ponies stared back at her, confused. "Is something, umm, wrong?" She asked, quietly, looking between the six of them. She gave a soft, nervous chuckle.

"Umm, dear, care to explain why they're not..Ahh, Dead?" Rarity asked, slowly, her gaze flickering between Lumpy and The Mole.

A look of sudden realization dawned on Flakies face just as Splendid jumped down from the rafters. "Well, Why would they be? Its morning, after all!" He said, loudly, stretching out his wings. "Don't know what the big deal is. Anyway, I'm going for a fly, See you around, ladies!" He flashed a smile before pushing past the line of mares and flying off, out the barn door.

Flaky took an uncertain step towards Twilight. "Do your dead not, umm....come back here...?" She asked, quietly.

Applejack gave her a strange look. "Hold on a minute, missy. You mean to tell me that this -" She gestured towards Lumpy and The Mole, "Is normal? Where you come from, I mean?" She didn't look convinced, not all the way.

"Excuse me, may I put a word in?" A voice quietly spoke up from the back of the barn, as Flippy took a step forward. "I know that this must be strange to you - all of it - but where we come from, violence is normal. Its a totally accepted fact of life. Now, this doesn't mean I'm not ashamed of myself..." He paused, looking almost painfully at Fluttershy. "because I am. I hate the way I become. But the dying? Its normal. And the reanimation is normal too. I hope you don't find us freaks." He stepped forward, standing in front of Fluttershy."I want to tell you I'm sorry." He murmured, before stepping back and looking at all of them. "All of you. I'll try to stay contained."

They all stared at him in stunned silence, even Flaky. No one knew what to say.

Eventually, it was Twilight who spoke up. "While this is...news, to me, I'll let you know that we won't judge you all for it. its only natural for you. And, well, We don't blame you Flippy. Flaky explained to us that you weren't in control. And I know for certain that Fluttershy in't one to hold a grudge." She looked over at the cream Pegasus, who smiled softly and nodded.

"I don't blame you." Fluttershy said quietly. Flippy smiled and blushed, looking down at his hooves.

And so, all was well -
At least, until Splendid crash-landed through the barn roof, breaking his neck and nearly severing his head.

Everyone was silent for a moment.

With a glare and a noise of anger, Handy picked up a wrench with his mouth and flew up to fix the roof. Lumpy, with a laugh, moved over and started rolling the body to the back of the barn.

And, well, while everything wasn't perfect, it could have been a whole lot worse.
