The Shadow Pony: Chapter 3

Life Isn't All Rainbows

AN- It’s CrimLight, back for more! Here’s my third chapter, up at last. I’m sorry it’s so short. If you like it,

comment- if you don’t, comment anyway. Thank you!

Twilight Sparkle and Rarity shouted Light’s name at the same time. Twilight dashed to the edge,

leaning over the balcony. “Light? Are you okay?” Suddenly, Light appeared below them. She looked up

at Twilight and smiled. She replied, “Yeah, I’m fine, thanks to this pegasus. The said pegasus appeared

below them.

“Hi, Twilight!” shouted Rainbow Dash, waving at a dumbstruck Twilight Sparkle. “Happy to see

me?” Rarity trotted up beside Twilight. “Rainbow Dash, that wasn’t very nice! You shouldn’t just come

crashing into my boutique!” Rainbow Dash scowled. “Yeah, well, nothing’s broken, is it?” Rarity shot

back, “That’s not the point! You nearly hurt Light very badly!” Rainbow Dash looked at Light

sheepishly. “Yeah…sorry about that….” Light grinned. “Well, you saved me, so it all evens out, doesn’t

it?” Rainbow Dash smiled back. “Yeah, I guess it does.”

Twilight interrupted. “Well, Light, now that you’ve met Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and

me, it’s time for you to meet Fluttershy! I’m sure you’d be the best of friends!” Twilight smiled

encouragingly. Light gulped nervously. Twilight grinned. “Let’s go!”

Twilight Sparkle knocked on Fluttershy’s door. Light watched all the animals running, flying,

walking, and hopping around her with a smile. Fluttershy slowly opened the door and peeked out.

“H-hello?” she whispered. “Twilight?” She opened the door a little wider. “Here, come on in.”

Twilight walked through the door. Light tiptoed through the door after her. Fluttershy held the door

open just a little wider. Light smiled shyly at her and Fluttershy smiled back. Fluttershy closed the door

softly behind them.

Fluttershy walked over to one of her animal friends. “Oh, my, Angel. You’re out of carrots, aren’t

you?” Fluttershy turned and pulled three carrots from a box. “Here you go.” She pushed the carrots

toward the bunny rabbit. “Eat them if you want to.” She walked over to Twilight and Light and sat

down. “Welcome,” she said softly, smiling a little. “I’m Fluttershy. What’s your name?” Light smile shyly

back. “I’m Light. It’s nice to meet you, Fluttershy. Your house is amazing!”

Fluttershy blushed. “Thank you,” she said. Light looked around the house. On every wall were

animal homes, big and small. The closets all held animal food and supplies and the floor was covered

with Fluttershy’s animal friends. Twilight coughed to get Light’s attention. “Light, now that you’ve met

Fluttershy, we should go see Applejack.” Light turned toward Twilight, embarrassed. “Okay.” They

walked out the door, Fluttershy waving goodbye.
