The following morning Naruto got up bright and early. Fixing breakfast for Rarity before making his way over to Fluttershy’s cottage.

“Congratulations!” Minuette called out to him with a wave.

“Way to go man!” Thunderlane had called out to him from above.

“It’s about time you two!” Berry Punch had called out as she was in the process of taking her daughter to school.

He couldn’t help but chuckled. Look like Pinkie Pie had already took care of the whole inform the town phase. Knowing her she was already half way through with the invitations for the wedding. He could hardly walk fifteen feet without someone congratulating him. There were a few annoyed at him though, either ponies who were jealous for getting one of the most eligible bachelerotte’s in town and others because of the money they lost from the betting pool. He made a mental note not to let Rarity find out for the sake of the idea pony’s health not being compromised.

As he expected Fluttershy was up, bright and early and interacting with the wildlife. She was dressed in a lime sleeveless top and a creamy looking short of skirt. Far from her usual more modest outfits, but then again it was a particularly warm day.

“Oh, hello Naruto.” She greeted him in a voice that was almost normal volume. She was coming a long way from her timid self, at least among her friends. They also made progress of her phobias. Fluttershy was now far less afraid of the Everfree Forest then she used to be more on the side of caution and concern when it came to the wild life. She also didn’t have a petrifying fear of the darkness and was no longer startled by her own shadow or complexion. The only set back was the recent seminar that occurred a few days ago when Iron Will came to town and she took to his self-help approach a little too well. Unfortunately that meant that Fluttershy was a bit reluctant to take being confident a bit too far. (1)

“Hey, I know its sudden, but I’m hoping that maybe this evening we can go out. You and me spending quality time together. Rare has assured me she doesn’t mind and if I really think about it, we haven’t had much one on one time lately.”

“I’d love to go out with you tonight.” She spoke with a sense of confidence. She didn’t feel the need to instantly revert back to being timid.

“Then I’ll come pick you up say around four?” He asked as she gave him a bashful nod.

Fluttershy gave him a tiny smile as she looked up at him. “That sounds nice.”

“Alright, see you then.” He said as he carried on back down the road.

“Oh, my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness!” Fluttershy exclaimed, prancing across her living room in a panic. This would be her first time on an actual one on one date with Naruto. Without Rarity or it just being a picnic or a stroll. This would be a bonafide romantic…well date. “… I have no idea what to do!” For almost an hour she had been in a tizzy since Naruto asked her out.

Her cheeks burned red when she thought about what could happen. Everypony practically knew about the incident on the beach with Naruto and Pinkie. Two well ponies like that couldn’t so much as sneeze without it being plastered everywhere and despite it only being a few months the Bearers and the new Lunar Captain were still a hot topic.

That and progress with Naruto had been one of their topics when the herd would gather to discuss what was going on in their lives. Romantic progress was always one of the topic with discussions, along with families, wealth, personal issues that could become a problem for the herd and other such things.

Rarity was rather thorough in making sure that nopony would be bringing issues that could harm their growing family with them. For a moment Fluttershy was going to go ask Rarity for help and decided against. She already felt bad as she had privately expressed her concerns of inadequacy when it came to the blond’s affection because of her introverted nature meaning he was taking time away focusing on her when it should be on his fiancé. Ex-model or not personality traits could not just be changed overnight. At this point it would have been too late, figuring Generosity had a hand in this anyway.

“Okay, settle down, Fluttershy.” She thought to herself. Naruto cared about her. He wasn’t going to judge her. He cared about her and assured her he found her attractive. She just had to be herself. Well a more confident version of herself.

She took a look at her mane and realized it was a bit messy from her morning chores. “Angel? Can you come help me please?” Her faithful bunny companion didn’t respond. “Angel, where are you?” Taking a few steps around her sofa, she found him lying in his basket with an oversized sleeping mask covering his face. “Mama needs your help. Do you mind fixing up my hair, please?” Despite putting on her sweetest smile, Angel who had removed the mask simply put it back on.

Even though Angel was her faithful companion, he could be very impatient with her at times, and often a bit selfish. He was still fairly young for a bunny, so she often overlooked his rude behavior, for the most part. After his behavior during the seminar incident and what good that actually came out of it Fluttershy finally realized that for Angel’s own good he would need to be disciplined when he was being spoiled or acting like a brat.

“I’m going to count to three.” She began a stern expression on her face. The bunny of course immediately began to scamper, returning with her brush. A sigh escaped her lips. She hated the thought, the idea of having to discipline any creature, but as she learned some things were necessary.

“Oh, thank you so much, Angel.” She responded gingerly, as she took a seat on the couch. The breed of rabbit Angel was bred from were considered intelligent, like Applejack’s pet Winoa, but not intelligent enough to be recognized as a fully sapient species like one of their cousin species. They weren’t capable of full speech or a culture, but compared to other animal companions the rabbit was the closest of being on that level.

“I would do it myself, but I’m just so nervous right now. This is my chance to improve my relationship with Naruto and I don’t want to ruin it. It was different when Rarity was there to take the lead and give me support. I wish I could be as calm and poised as her.”

Angel didn’t seem to be paying any attention to Fluttershy as she confessed her anxiousness about the upcoming evening.

The sudden usage of a spray had caught Fluttershy off guard as she let out a cute little sneeze. A mirror dropped in her lap courtesy of the bunny. Using it she saw her pink mane to its former glory, he hopped off of her down to the floor. “Oh, you’re done. Thank you, Angel, you’ve been a big help to me.” In a huff, the grumpy bunny took the sleeping mask and hopped back to his basket to laze about like before.

“Perhaps I should have taken a shower and gotten dress before you did my hair.” Fluttershy pondered aloud now that she thought about it.

Angel double face palmed, knowing that he wasn’t going to get much sleep tonight.

That evening Fluttershy was examining her appearance in the mirror. Hopefully it would wow the blond. A knock on the door drew her attention. She opened and there stood Naruto, exchanging out his usual darker colored shirt for a green shirt.

“Wow.” Was the only thing the blond could say as he gave Fluttershy a glance over. “I…just wow.”

Fluttershy could feel her cheeks redden. “Um… hi.” she said sheepishly, barely able to keep eye contact with him. No. Now was not the time for her to get a sudden bout of shyness.

“Are you ready to go?”

“Y-Yes.” She began hoping by some miracle she wouldn’t make a fool of herself.

Fluttershy's heart was pounding in her chest. As she traveled alongside the blond and took in the sights she began to relax. Still this date was like a dream come true. A nice romantic stroll under the moon light. Oh, she had to make sure everything went perfect, she couldn't let this chance slip away. She didn’t want to be left behind after all.

Naruto was such a good stallion; he was kind, honest, intelligent, hardworking... He had this special aura about him that comforted and protected her, even during her darkest moments. There were very few things in this world that Fluttershy could claim brought her true happiness and peace, and being in Naruto's arms was one of them.

Sure if Fluttershy wanted a hunk, her former model status as well as her newfound fame she could have gotten one, but she cared for more of what was in one’s heart then what they looked like. Though she had to admit his looks helped. Especially the improvements when he came back from training in the capital. He was definitely an Alpha Male. Why, right now he could throw her to the ground and rip off her clothes and she wouldn't stop him!

‘O-Oh my!’ She began to wonder where that thought came from? A holdover from the seminar.

"Fluttershy? Are you alright? You're looking a bit feverish? You’re not getting sick are you?”

Fluttershy quickly turned her head away in embarrassment, hiding her bright.

"Um, n-no I’m fine. I-It’s nothing at all!” She blurted out, hoping he wouldn't pick up on the lie, despite knowing how futile that thought was.

“Well, if something is wrong just let me know. Anyway our reservations aren’t for another two hours so I thought I would show you something. ” Here in the town of Coltsville one could take a boat ride and see a rare breed of endangered swan that were indigenous to the reason and protected in their inhabitant. In fact, Coltsville lake was a national landmark of great importance and considering Fluttershy’s love of animals he knew she was going to enjoy seeing the swan. Coltsville was also popular because it was a community where many bachelor herds would come for the purpose of meeting eligible mares. The dating services in town was currently being run by a committee that made sure the stallions were protected and their rights wouldn’t be violated.

Despite being there together it didn’t stop the mares from hitting on the both of them. As annoyed as he was he would be lying if he didn’t find his flustered date reacting to other mare’s flirtations a mixture of money and adorable.

"Can't I at least have a little hint?" Fluttershy pleaded. Naruto gave her a bright grin.

"Nope."

Fluttershy pouted.

He had been concerned that Fluttershy knew or at least heard about the protected swan, but then again Coltsville dating services and high male population often was the forefront of any news concerning the town.

“At last, I’ve managed to give the guards the slip.” The mare continued down her path as she grumbled. “Curse that infernal Celestia. The voice belonged to a beautiful mare who was currently using her magic to stoke a heat crystal that she liberated from her latest victim. She had a white coat and an electric blue mane and tail. It was not long ago her coat and mane was dirty and matted and she smelled like garbage, a result of having been on the run. While she was in better condition her coat was far from its impeccable look and her beauty marred from years of imprisonment.

‘To be away from my beauties for so long. Fifty-nine treasures is hardly enough for a collection.’ Her eyes seemed to flicker, madness clearly in them. ‘Could they not see the sin in letting such beauty die? They had to be preserved.’ She paused in front of the window of a shop as she looked at her reflection. A moan of despair escaped her lips. ‘I will never be able to ensnare my beauties in this condition. At best a two bit whore would mistake me for their kind.’

She ran her hands through her mane, trying to make it look halfway presentable. "Ugh."

After a few moments of her trying, and failing, to fix her appearance she was interrupted by what sounded like voices. She stopped and threw herself at the ground. Listening, she noticed the voices were coming just south of her, down the hill. Slowly, quietly crawling south, she peeked from behind a tree. .

There was an orange and yellow stallion making his way down the path to the boat areas. The mare scoffed at him. Typical hunky stallion, probably a heartbreaker too. Stallions didn't know how to properly treat mares, they didn't know what it meant to truly love a mare. She suddenly noticed movement in the foliage and directed her attention there. Her heart stopped.

There was magnificent Pegasus Mare. She had a flawless butter-yellow coat that shone in the sunlight, and a silky pink mane that swayed in the breeze like a work of art. She was tall, much taller than her own five-foot-five and the proportions that made hourglasses cry in shame.

'Look at her bosom. Absolutely magnificent!’ The mare thought to herself. She watched the Pegasus Mare walk, watching her long legs and rear end. 'Oh what I wouldn’t give to make her my little pet.’

"I have to have her. Her beauty surpasses all my other art pieces. I want to have her and keep her. Until the day her beauty begins to wane and then I’ll make her my ultimate master piece. I'll make sure her beauty lasts forever."

She was watching the duo closely now. Suddenly, the beautiful Pegasus Mare tripped and fell into the powerful arms of the orange stallion. The mare gave the stallion a look of pure, unadulterated adoration. The white mare sneered.

"But first, I have to take care of a teensy obstacle."

Slowly, the white mare's horn lit up with a baby blue glow and a black arrow floated out of the quiver she had liberated from her victim’s home. She focused on the orange stallion, and so did the floating, black arrow.

Fluttershy had slipped on some wet rocks as they made their way to the dock, but luckily he caught her.

"Sorry about that Fluttershy, I forgot there were some slippery rocks around here."

Fluttershy, however, was pressed tightly into Naruto's body. Her stomach was pressed into his abs, and her breasts were mashed into his pectorals and she held him tightly.

"Oh, i-it's no problem, at all." She breathed, relishing his hard body against hers. Her body was ready, but her mind wasn’t quite there yet. Suddenly Naruto’s expression changed and she became concerned. “N-Naruto?”

“Something’s wrong?” He stated. He could feel something in the air.

A sharp whistling? It was a sound that he definitely recognized. All of a sudden, his hand shot up in the air, quickly closing his fist around something.

It took Fluttershy a moment to realize Naruto was holding a large, black arrow in his fist. He had caught it mere inches from his face.

Damn! Somehow that son of a bitch was able to catch her arrow! How the fuck did he do that!? Realizing she had given away her position, she quickly turned around to move but ran head first into a large, orange wall. Falling on her ass, she looked up and saw it was the large stallion that she had tried to kill.

'How the...?'

"Why were you trying to kill me?" The stallion spoke. His voice was deep and had an underlying growl that, quite honestly, terrified her. Suddenly, his face changed from angry to surprise. "Wait a minute, I know you." He said. He recognized her as one of the escaped prisoners from the Nightmare Moon incident. She was a notorious serial killer that targeted Mares. He had gone over the files and committed their images to memory. “Vanity.” He growled.

The white Unicorn Mare looked up at him and gave him a sinister grin.

"Guilty as charged. Do me a favor…" Twenty arrows floated out of the bag. “…and die for me quickly.” She said as she fired the entire load of arrows at him.
