When Pinkie Surprised Us
Chapter 4: Respect for Rainbow
Previous Chapter Next ChapterChapter 4
(Normal POV)
Friendship usually sorted itself out. For example, although the Mane Six are all friends, but Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash, or Fluttershy and Rarity, had a more connected friendship, knowing more about one another (But Pinkie doesn't really count, because she knows everything and supports everything about every living thing). This happened with the Turtles and the Mane 6. Twilight and Donatello were together talking about sciencey-book type things, Rainbow and Rapheal were agreeing on how awsome pet trutles were, Rarity and Fluttershy were still uncounisence, Applejack, Micalangelo, and Leonardo were having a perfectly normal conversation. They went on like this until April and Splinter walked into the main room.
(Fluttershy POV)
I had really been hearing and watching everypony from Rarity's fainting couch this whole time. I knew Rarity was sleeping, she was snoring, but I probably would get up once she was awake, she loves her fainting couch, but I think she has four. I was really suprised when a giant rat who walked on two legs and wore a red Chigoat Kimono came in with a strange creature I had never seen before. Well, I guess I wasn't that surprised, we've been seeing some strange things lately, but I guess Rainbow is right- I'll never run out of fear and surprise, it'll always be with me. My mom used to say when I was born, they thought I had autisim because I wasn't crying out loud, I was just whimpering and flowing tears. Daddy said I was just shy because my wings were fluttering, autisim foals didn't do that, so they named me Fluttershy. I guess everypony has a story to their name, besides coloring, but I'm getting off track. Anyway, everypony looked up at him and maybe I was a bit scared, not just surprised, 'cause I jumped up and grabbed onto a loose bar on the ceiling. I accidently bucked Rarity in the face and she fell off of the sleeping couch and woke up.
"Oh, Rarity!" I gasped, "I'm so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so sorry! It was an accidently really! It um... I..." I began to stutter and started trailing off, mumbling as I lost eye contact with everypony else. The turtles laughed, the strage creature blinked, the rat pretended he didn't notice. Rainbow slapped the red-banded turtle in the face, he immediately stopped laughing. She flew up to me and patted me on the back, giving me a hug with her wings.
"You can come down." she smiled. I shivered violently.
"B-but I can't fly th-that far... W-wat if a fall, or, or..." I shut my eyes tightly. She ruffled my mane and helped me slowly glide down to the ground.
"It's okay, darling, you didn't mean it." Rarity said, lending me her scarf. It didn't help stop me stop shivering in the least, but at least she gave it up for me. Everypony in the room seemed to have a newfound respect for Dash, but she didn't take it like the best thing in the world and force us the shower her in compliments like she did sometimes. She just glared at the purple-clothed turtle, who was still snickering. He didn't notice. Twilight rammed her left forhoof into his side and he shut up. I really do have the best friends in the world, and they would never laugh at me.
Rainbow, who know relized the serious vibes floating around, took it as an oppertunity, "We have to go find Pinkie." she announced firmly. Nopony objected as she and Twilight took the lead. The creature and the rat didn't tag along, but everypony else did.
