Ditzes, Rainbows and Butterflies
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAfter leaving Sugarcube Corners with a box full of cupcakes, happily gifted to Daniel from Pinkamiena, Daniel and Allison walked down the cobblestone street eating aforementioned cupcakes, sighing from the frosting-coated delicacy's sweet taste.
"Mmm... These are delicious!" he said starting on his third cupcake, "I think I might go there everyday!" he cheered happily.
As he finished his third and was going for his fourth, he backed his hand away fast as Allison closed the box, almost crushing his fingers. "We should save the rest for Abigail, Mac and Granny Smith." Daniel groaned without the delicious taste of frosting, "Wouldn't you love to see the look on Abby's face tasting these?" Allison said trying to reason with him. The very thought of Abigail's cute little smile on her adorable little face made him blush, nodding and smiling.
She smiled and took the box from him as they continued to walk. As they moved through the street, waving and talking with each other or to others, a goofy but distressed feminine voice could be heard coming towards them, "Watch out!" As if instinctively, Allison ducked faster than Daniel could think as he was crashed into by something or someone.
Daniel groaned as he tried to see what hit him, being met by the sight of long blond hair and a mailman's hat. He sat up groaning as the one who crashed into him jumped up and back, a frightened look on her face, "Oh no, I'm so sorry! Are you okay?!" she said worriedly as she kneeled by his side, trying to help him up. He groaned more as he stood up and rubbed the back of his head, looking down at the girl who'd charged into him like a battering ram through a door.
She was much shorter than he and Allison, only reaching up to his forearm. She was blonde, had big yellow eyes, one seemingly lazy, which actually added to how cute it was, and her skin was a pale peach color. She wore a light grey mailperson uniform and a navy blue bag strapped over her shoulder, decorative bubbles all over it.
Allison chuckled and walked up to her, "Well, ya sure do know how'ta make an entrance Delilah." she said kindly, catching her attention and gasping as she jumped up and hugged her, "Allison!" she said happily, tackle-hugging the unexpecting farm girl to the ground.
Daniel watched with a small smile on his face and bent down, holding a hand out to each of them and pulling them up. Allison got to her feet perfectly fine as Delilah, being partially lighter than the cowgirl, fell on Daniel, again.
Daniel chuckled and stood up with her in his arm. She stood up wobbily, her bangs going over her eye as she looked down at the ground sadly and ashamed, "I'm really sorry about crashing into you... Please don't be mad at me..." she said, her voice cracking as if she was ready to cry. Daniel looked a little annoyed that his jacket was even dirtier than it already was, but his look softened as he heard her voice and looked at her sniffling face.
He sighed and kneeled down, looking up at the blonde mail woman and catching her attention, "Hey, don't worry. I'm not injured or anything, see?" he showed her the back of his head an his arms, all perfectly fine, "I'm okay, accidents happen."
It seemed like it worked as she gave a small smile and nodded, "Y-yeah... Accidents happen... Thank you..." Daniel smiled big and stood up to his full height, "So... What's your name?" she asked wiping away the few tears that made it out.
"I'm Daniel Komuro, Danny if you like. What's yours?"
She looked down at the ground sadly, "My name is Delilah Donavo... But everyone calls me... Well..."
At that moment, a group of guys their age pointed at her and laughed, "Hey look guys, its Derpy! 'Sup klutz!" they all laughed as they walked away, Delilah seeming like she was about to cry.
Daniel growled and started to walk towards them along with Allison until Delilah grabbed their arms, "Don't... Its okay, they call me stuff like that all the time... I'm used to it..." Daniel shook his head and started walking again as Allison stayed next to Delilah.
Daniel walked up to the 3 and tapped their shoulders as they all turned around, a little more muscled and taller than him, "Whattya want shorty?"
The first, the one on the right, had light brown skin and orange hair covering his eyes, a white tank top and jeans covering him.
The second with white hair, obviously bleached, was Caucasian with his hair draped over a single blue eye. He wore the same as the other man.
Daniel growled, "You made fun of my friend and I'm not going to just stand by and let it happen!" he clenched his fists looking up a little to meet their gaze, a glare on his face.
They just laughed at him as the biggest with pale skin and blonde hair in an army fashion stepped up. He had no shirt on, showing off his muscles that were rather large to say the least.
"YEAAAH!!!" He roared as he charged and swung at Daniel who dodged and looked up at him as the orange, red gemmed ring on his right wrist glowed and his eyes turned crimson, uppercutting the tall man straight in his chin as he staggered back, growling angrily as he ran at Daniel about to throw another punch that landed, making Daniel flip backwards from the blow.
The behemoth was about to knee him as he dodged again and landed on his hands and feet, spinning and sweep kicking him to make him lose his balance, and finally punched him in the stomach to the ground.
"W-What the hell..." the albino giant groaned as he was knocked out cold.
"SNOWFLAKE!!!" His friends screamed as they ran up to him and then glared at Daniel who stood tall, waiting to see what they'd do. As he expected, they ran at him as he got ready and both of them swung at him from both ways. He ducked and punched their knees, making them fall.
As he readied another strike, they sucker punched him in his face as he flew a meter or two away. Allison and Delilah gasped as he staggered back to his feet, his nose bleeding as he ran at them again, both of them getting ready as they dodged and threw punches at his stomach, both of them connecting as he fell to the ground groaning in pain.
They smirked walking up to him, the carrot top raising his foot and bringing it down, thinking he'd just stomped on Daniel.
Allison and Delilah looked away, Delilah cowering and whimpering from what might've been lying before them, until the sound of the carrot top yelling was heard, "What the hell?!"
They looked back and saw his foot being pushed back as Daniel stood up and pushed him down, his long hair a crimson red with orange streaks, as if his hair was on fire, or better yet, was an inferno come to life as it waved behind him, no winds blowing to show the source. He glared at the two of them, his eyes full of rage as he stepped towards them and the rocks under his feet breaking and smoke rising every step as they ran away, picking up Snowflake in the process.
Allison raced up to Daniel, Delilah in tow as his hair went back to its usual purple and black and he groaned, holding his head in pain as his nose stopped bleeding and he wiped the blood from before away.
"Sugarcube, are ya alright?!" Allison yelled worriedly as Daniel chuckled, "Yeah, I'm fine, why wouldn't I be?" he said smiling wide.
"That... That was amazing..." Delilah said in awe of his previous actions.
Daniel looked at her confusedly, "Uh... Thanks but... What did I do?"
This question made Allison and Delilah look at him like he was crazy, "You... You just beat up Hoops, Shoot and Snowflake... Don't you remember?" Delilah said amazed as Daniel wracked his brain for the answers and shook his head.
"I don't recall that but... If it helped, I'm glad I did it." he said kindly, rubbing the back of his head.
Allison looked at him like he was crazy and chuckled, happy that even though he'd changed physically, he didn't change at all personality wise.
Daniel was going to speak until a familiar British voice yelled in their direction, frantic from the sound of it, "Delilah!"
Delilah's eyes widened and a smile grew on her face as she turned around and the doctor from the hospital was looking around for her. She yelled happily, "Doctor!" she ran quickly and tripped over a part of the cobblestone ground tumbling and accidentally tackling him. They stared at each other and blushed, laughing at her clumsiness.
"Sugarcube, Ah' reckon we should let these two have their moment." Daniel nodded as they both slowly walked away from them, smiling.
Fifteen or so minutes later, Daniel walked slowly through the town with Allison right by his side. He groaned and leaned on her unexpectedly as she caught him, "Daniel, what's wrong with ya' sugarcube?" she said worriedly, looking at the tall male.
He looked down at her and groaned, his voice dull as only three words escaped his lips, "I'm so bored!"
Allison couldn't believe how childish he was being at this point, giggling at him as she pushed him back onto his own feet, "Calm on down Sugarcube, we're almost there. And believe me, y'all won't be bored with this'n." she smiled and winked as she kept walking, Daniel following close behind.
They soon came into sight of a blue house with white, cloud-looking designs, the roof and door were rainbow colored, as if a piece of the sky had fallen on top of the building and splattered, turning it into this.
Daniel's mouth dropped at the sight as Allison giggled again, walking towards the door, pulling the awestruck Daniel along with her.
She knocked on the door and yelled, "Hey RD, c'mon outside! Ah' got someone fer' ya' ta' meet!" afterwards being met by the sound of crashes, loud thuds and an 'Ow!' now and then.
After a few more seconds of waiting, the door shot open. On the opposite side of the rainbow door was a rainbow haired, magenta eyed girl with light peach skin. She wore sky blue running shorts that ended right above her knees, sky blue and rainbow running shoes, and a tank-top which was once again, a sky blue.
She seemed like she'd been running a marathon, sweaty, out of breath, and her tank-top was drenched in said sweat, making it clamp to her small sized-- probably A or double B cup-- chest.
Unlike with Mrs. Cake and Pinkie, he didn't stare for very long, or even blush that much. Let's face it, there wasn't much to see.
But sadly, there was enough blush that RD and Allison noticed it and elicited chuckles from the two. She gave a quirky smile and spoke with a tomboyish tone of voice, "What's got your face so red? Staring at my tits?" she laughed and blushed as Allison groaned, pulling a hat over her blushing face and Daniel blushing darkly, both caused by RD's words.
She stopped laughing and kept the big grin, the sweat stopping, "Well, whatever. Stare as much as you want, I don't and won't care. My name's Riana Davis, Rainbow Dash if you want. What's yours?"
Daniel smiled and crossed his arms, "I'm Daniel Komuro. I'm new to the town." Riana nods and looks at Allison.
"So, you're showing him around huh? Hope you let him meet Pinkie first, cause you know how she gets when she misses out on meeting new people." she leaned against the door frame.
Allison nodded and sighed, "Yup, Pinkie was our first stop. Figured you should be next." she shrugged.
Riana nodded and smirked, "Wanted to let him get a glimpse at the fastest girl in the world? Understandable. I am pretty awesome." she posed, grabbing glasses from almost seemingly nowhere along with a hat, crossing her arms in front of her like it was for the cover of a hip hop album.
Allison shook her head and sighed, "Y'all got an ego bigger than everyone in the town put together..."
At this, Riana just laughs at her, "Yeah, maybe. But that's what comes from my awesomeness!" she said arrogantly as she made the same pose again. Allison facepalmed, a 'slap' sound resonating from it, making Daniel and Riana chuckle.
"Well, I gotta get back to training. I'll see ya!" she started to run off until Daniel saw a gold necklace which had a matching bolt like his own and noticed it glowing.
"Wait, Riana!" he yelled hurriedly as he ran up to her.
She stopped and turned around to face him, "Wassup Dan?"
"What's that around your neck?" he said pointing at the aforementioned necklace.
She looked at it, "Huh? Oh! Don't worry about it." she winked and dashed away, leaving Daniel confused.
"Well that was... Interesting?" he said looking for the right word as the bolt on his necklace ceased to glow.
Allison shrugged and sighed, "Yeah well... She's as blunt as a boulder, but she can give ya' a run fer' yer' money when it comes ta' racin'."
He nodded, "I can tell... I could've sworn I saw a rainbow trail behind her." he chuckled.
"Well, onto our next stop. She's right on down the road there." Daniel nodded and started walking with Allison.
"So, who's this next friend of yours? What's she like?" Daniel asked quizzically.
Allison smiled sweetly at him as she spoke, "Her names Flonne. She's a real sweetheart and wouldn't hurt a fly. She loves animals of all kinds, dogs, cats, birds, and she's got her own little pet bunny." she said, happy to talk about her.
Daniel smiled hearing about her as he thought to himself, 'She sounds like a caring girl... And hopefully she's calmer than the last two.'
~Five minutes later~
Daniel was groaning with anger and annoyance as they walked, Allison sighing and looking up at him, "Lemme guess, bored?" she said knowingly as he nodded and continued walking.
Allison chuckled at him and then looked at the road in front of them, a startling sight eliciting a gasp from her, "W-wait... Is that b-b-blood?" she said in surprise as Daniel looked down and saw it as well gasping and taking a single step back.
Allison ran up to the door of a small cottage, animals and the like prancing around happily, completely oblivious to the two running up to their home. "Fluttershy! Fluttershy are you okay?!"
The door opened slowly as an Asian girl with bright pink hair that reached over one of her eyes, onto her large, Double D or single E cup, breasts and her big eyes were a radiant baby blue. She wore a yellow long-sleeve sweater with a turtle neck and three little pink butterflies on the chest, tight light blue jeans, and little pink sandals, a size 6 in women's to be exact.
She looked at Allison worriedly, "Um... Allison, is something wrong?" she said cluelessly in her high voice, soft as a whisper, and not noticing Daniel at all.
Allison sighed in relief, "Oh thank goodness yer' alright."
She looked at her dumbfounded and tilted her head, "Um... Yes, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?"
Allison pointed behind them, "Didn't ya' notice the big trail of blood outside your house?"
Fluttershy's eyes widened and she ran outside, seeing the trail as she gasped, "Oh my goodness! When did that get there?"
Allison looked at her surprised, "Didn't ya' go to the shop this mornin' like ya' always do?"
She shook her head, "No, I stayed to take care of poor little Angel Bunny, he's sick." she said upset as a small bunny in a little robe hopped out and made a little sneeze that nearly made Daniel's heart melt.
Daniel looked down at fluttershy, "So this is the infamous little Angel Bunny." he said petting Angel's little head as he nuzzled his hand but made another tiny sneeze. "Poor little guy..."
The Sakura haired girl made a high-pitched 'Eep!' noise in surprise of the new voice. Allison chuckled and smiled, "Oopsie, sorry Flutters, lemme introduce ya' to Daniel Komuro."
Daniel stood up after petting the sick little bunny and waved to her, "Hi there."
She made a shy expression, blushing and hiding behind her long hair, pushing her fingers together in a nervous fashion. "Uh... H-hi..."
Daniel blushed looking at her adorable embarrassment, 'She's pretty cute...' he thought to himself as he cleared his throat, "So, Allison told me your name is Flonne, right?"
She blushed darker from behind her hair as she quietly answered, "Um... Y-yes... But... My friends..." she became quieter than a whisper, "My friends... Call me Fluttershy..."
Daniel looked at her confusedly, "Um... I'm sorry, what was that?"
"My friends call me Fluttershy..." she mumbled a little louder, Daniel still not understanding. "I'm sorry, I'm still not getting it." he persisted.
She squeaked and whined, terribly embarrassed and looking at the ground, not wanting to make eye contact with him.
Allison chuckled and tapped Daniel's arm, "She's a little shyer than most. She'll get used to ya." she smiled at him and he nodded. "Anyway, y'all should probably think about gettin' the mayor ta' get someone ta' clean that mess up." she gestured to the blood on the ground.
Flonne shook her head, "Oh no, I can get Harry and the others to help." Angel stood on his hind legs and was walking outside as the shy girl picked him up and nuzzles him, "No no Angel, you go to bed and rest. The others can handle it." Angel looked up at his owner and nodded nuzzling her back and hopping up the stairs behind her.
Daniel looked amazed and smiled at the cute scene and leaned over to Allison, "She's really good. And also... Who the heck is Harry?"
"Oh, you'll see Sugarcube, you'll see." she said slyly as Flonne pressed two fingers to her lips and gave a whistle as a loud growl could be heard.
"... What was that?" Daniel said with wide, frightened eyes.
"Harry." was the one word that escaped her lips that were stretched into a sly grin.
Walking through the door, Flonne now in front of her home between Allison and Daniel, was a big brown bear, standing on its hind legs. "Hi Harry honey." she hugged the bear that wrapped its paws around her, hugging her back.
'... Okay, I've heard of a bear hug, but this is just ridiculous..." he thought to himself with wider eyes than before, Allison just chuckling at her companion's expression.
Flonne stepped to the side and gestured to the duo, "Look who cam to visit Harry." she said happily as Allison smiled and pulled Daniel forward, a freaked out look on his face as they got closer.
Allison pet Harry's muzzle and chuckled as he nuzzles her palm, moving up and licking her cheek as she chuckled louder hugging the bear, "Howdy Harry. Been a while hasn't it?" she smiled as the bear nodded and picked her up, kissing her cheek.
Allison giggled at the affection the bear showed her and looked at Daniel who wore a nervous expression on his face, "C'mon Danny, come say hi!"
Daniel nodded slowly and walked forward even more so. Allison giggled and jumped from the bear's grip, grabbing Daniel's hand and guiding it towards Harry's snout. Daniel was reluctant to touch the Ursa's nose, but Allison pulled his hand to the bear's nose.
It was a little damp and warm, and after a few seconds, Harry moved past his hand and nuzzled him, Allison never letting go of his hand. Or rather she couldn't since he had a death grip on it. "See? Harry's a big ol' honey bear with a heart'a gold. He won't hurt'cha."
Daniel nodded and gave a small smile, hugging and petting the bear, still gripping Allison's hand for dear life. Allison squeezed his hand back, trying to reassure him that Harry was harmless.
"Harry, could you please clean up the mess on the ground over there?" she said sweetly as the bear nodded and walked back inside, a mop and bucket in his hands as he headed towards the blood stained ground, mopping it up.
Daniel was amazed at how well-trained the bear was. He looked at Flonne and smiled, "How did you do that?"
She's froze up and stuttered an answer quietly, "D-Do what?" she asked.
"Get a giant 400 pound--"
"He's actually exactly 297.5 pounds. I keep him on a diet of veggies with the occasional meat-flavored treat now and then." she said in an 'as a matter of fact' tone of voice.
Daniel nodded slowly, "Uh-huh... Well, how did you get him to do what you said?" he asked surprised by such a usually impossible feat.
"Oh, well Harry and I have been friends for quite a while now, since I was about 4. I was lost in the woods because I'd wandered off, and he found me and helped me get back to my parents. They didn't like Harry though, so I would go visit him while my parents were at work or after school."
Daniel smiled, "Cool. So where're your parents now? Do they still live with you?"
Flonne shook her head, "No, my parents moved back to Cloudsdale. Its a town a few miles away, so I can still visit them. Since they moved out, I turned my home into a small animal sanctuary and pet shop. And since Harry was living in a dark cave in the forest, he was the first to be welcomed. He's been here with Angel and I ever since." she smiled kindly.
He smiled and looked at the seemingly whistling bear, or as well of a whistle as he could make. "So you and Harry are really close huh?"
Flonne blushed and hid behind her hair again, nodding as she answered quietly, "I... I suppose so... You must think I'm weird..."
Daniel chuckled and shook his head, "Not at all. I actually think its kinda cool, even though bears still freak me out to no end." he looked over at Harry, finishing up his cleaning, "But that bear? He's cool in my book." he smiled at Flonne who blushed darker, her eyes wide as she continued to hide behind her hair.
Allison chuckled at her rosy cheeked friend and gripped Daniel's hand and making them both blush, "C'mon Sugarcube, lets let Flutters get back to taking care of Angel." Daniel nodded and they began walking until Allison stopped abruptly, Daniel running into her as she turned to face her, "Oh, and if you get the chance, Winona's been a little under the weather lately herself. Could y'all c'mon by sometime ta' take a look?"
Flonne looked at her and nodded, a sweet smile gracing her lips as they waved goodbye and left. Flonne smiled and crossed her arms underneath her bust as if holding them up, looking over to Harry who had finished cleaning up the mess and was walking back towards her. She smiled and walked up to him, kneeling down and nuzzling his cheek as they looked in the direction the duo had left in as she sighed, "Harry... I think I need a boyfriend..." Harry nodded and pointed over in the same direction the two had gone as she looked at him strangely, "Daniel? Oh no! I couldn't possibly take him from Allison. She's my friend!" Harry rolled his eyes and shrugged.
Flonne sighed and stood as they headed back towards the cottage, her smile returning as she started to skip merrily, "Well, nevermind. Lets go take care of Angel." Harry growled a sigh and followed her in until he stopped and made a look, a grin spreading over his face as he ran inside.
