It was a bright, sunny day outside in Ponyville. It was so sunny, everypony had been given a day off from work just to enjoy themselves. Today Fluttershy was going with Twilight and the others to see a documentary about the Diamond Dogs. Twilight organised the event, but nobody had agreed to go until Rarity had forced them to go to see her appearance in the film.

However, there was only one problem with all this: when Fluttershy had woken up from her sleep, she noticed that Angel was lying just in front of the doorway, seemingly exhausted. This bewildered Fluttershy as Angel was never tired, except when he stayed up past midnight. On those occasions he could be found in the middle of the floor, usually surrounded by carrots and ice cream sundaes, wherever he managed to get them from was beyond her.

Upon close inspection of the white bunny, Fluttershy concluded that Angel was sick with the Thumps a rare illness,that causes bunnies to constantly thump at an ear-deafening volume and rapid repetition. However, Fluttershy knew that she could treat him and have him back to full health within a matter of days, but if she left the poor bunny, he could die from exhaustion. This left another problem, Rarity had been putting this viewing of the film off for weeks, as she had a lot of orders that she had to fulfill, and ended up procrastinating until the film was on its final screening.

Fluttershy had now to make an important choice: leave one of her bunnies behind for a couple of hours, a very risky option, or have the possibility of losing some of her friends.

‘Listen to yourself Fluttershy, they will understand, after all, they are your friends, right?’
Her mind gave herself an invisible facehoof, of course they were her friends! But then she thought of how Rainbow Dash would react. After all, the cyan colored pegasus had shouted at her on multiple occasions.

After at least 5 minutes of thinking, Fluttershy came to her decision, she would have to look after Angel and hope that her friends would accept that she wouldn't be able to come.

Fluttershy went to retrieve her smartphone, a joint present from Pinkie Pie and Twilight for her birthday last year, customised by Pinkie to be yellow with her cutie mark on the back, so that she could never lose it and make it feel ponyalised just for her.

She sent a group SMS to all of her friends, her only contacts on her phone aside from her family.
It read: Um... I will not be able to make it to the theatre today... if that's OK with you...Angel is very sick and I need to take care of him. I’m so very sorry for any inconvenience caused...is that ok with you?

Immediately she got 4 replies saying that it was OK, though Rarity’s one implied that she was disappointed. Soon after she got a reply from Rainbow Dash saying: 'Why do you have to be so lame Fluttershy?'
