Another 5 years past, Fluttershy turned 15 and I turned 25! It's been great, the best thing was that I was moving out! I graduated Uni and raised enough money to get a house. I'm moving to America where my dream job of being a game maker will come true, I know because Valve accepted me! They heard a lot about a game I want to make and they love it! I got quite famous from making YouTube videos and make a lot of money from it, so that was a job so you may wonder 'Why bother getting a new job?', well, Valve games inspire me, the Portal games are good and Half-Life 2: Episode 3 comes out tomorrow. But enough about Valve, 'how will you take Fluttershy?' you may ask, well from my YouTube videos that got me the money to buy the house I decided to hire a plane, 'oh look at you with your private jet and fancy stuff, you're so awesome' you might say sarcastically because I might be boasting a little but I'm sorry as I'm so existed about moving. "I'm going to miss this place. Do... Do we really have to go?" "Don't worry Fluttershy, my mum and dad will be coming to live with us too after a few days along with our stuff, now take a good long look at this place, and tuck it into bed, and put it into the back of your head." "Ok dad, bye Lucinda," Lucinda is my sister by the way "bye Mis Jasmine," She's my mum "bye Mr. Stephen" He's my dad" and bye Mr. Gavin, I still don't forgive you for playing that trick on, but love you all the same" "Bye mum, bye dad, bye Gav, bye Lu Lu. Visit soon, ok?" we did our good bye hugs and left for the airport. I had trouble getting Fluttershy on without anyone seeing her get on, but we did.

-----------------------------------

After a long sleep on the plain, we was at our new home, San Francisco. We found our house, it was a little small but nice all the same. It had what my mum always wanted, a basement (because hardly any houses in England has basements) and there was so much room, I could use some of the rooms for sets and things. Fluttershy loved her new room, she liked the house, but the weather she did not like. She hated the back garden, it was just flat grass with a pool and the fences people could see over easily. She even hated her first day here, personally so did I. Endless waves of people giving us things and one asked to party, I declined as 1. I didn't want Fluttershy to spend all day in her room and 2. I needed to plan what room would be for what and where my mum and dad would sleep as they are old and I did promises I would take care of them when they get old. I decided to sleep in the same room as Fluttershy for tonight as she hasn't seen me all day, the worst thing was it was raining outside. "I hate it here, I want to go back to England." "Fluttershy, my growing tree, I hated this day more then you did as I had to sort out everything, but in 3 days everything will be in order and sorted. Ok?" "Ok, but i still hate the heat" "Well get use to it as it is always this hot here. Trust me, this isn't my first time here."

-----------------------------------

I woke up in the middle of the night to find that someone ways trying to kidnap my daughter. I chased him down stairs, lucky for me he left his gun on the table, I never fired a gun before but I shot like I was pro by shooting him in his knees and his shoulders, I didn't want to shoot the hands incase I hit Fluttershy but after I shot him he was on the floor, so I got the gun and beat him with the handle until he was out, and out cold, then I phoned the police. "yeah, someone tried to kidnap my daughter in both her and my sleep." after sorting that out I tied him up by putting his ankles and wrist together, I don't know how much trouble this would get me into for using a gun without a license, but I did use it in defence to save my girl and that's ok in my books, maybe not yours but ok in mine, I handed him to the police when they came and they wanted to see Fluttershy to interview her but I said that she doesn't want to talk nor talks for a couple days after something bad like this happens. She talked to them a couple days later via the phone, they couldn't understand her as she was being so quiet, so I talked to them quoting what she said. I hope the guy is happy about almost kidnapping my growing tree as it almost cost him his arms and legs.

----------------------------------- 

Well, work was well today, seemed like I thought a job would be like, but it's nothing like uni said, but I think that's because Valve treat there employees differently then other company's, Fluttershy was glad I was home as she was scared I wouldn't return or she would get captured again, but from now on I kept her close. She enjoyed how all our stuff was back, imported from UK to USA. Mum and dad came a little while later too, and they liked their new house and my new salary.

-----------------------------------

Everything was looking good for me and Fluttershy, we still had each other, my game was turning into a success over the 3 years of working at Valve, "I've never seen a game like it!" "It's awesome since you came up with it since the 7 grade!" they kept saying. It was a solo project, so I was working on that while the others was working on Portal 3, Half-Life 3 and Counter Strike: Freedom Fighter. I thought I might add a coopcrowd reference into the game by giving some of the soldiers in my game some of there lines from there videos. Life was perfect with me and Fluttershy, no problems were in our way, we was very honest with each other and I still watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic with her, it stopped at season 8 and replayed from there, which is odd as it even said that in My Little Dashie, which makes me wonder if I'm the only brony in the whole world at this point.

-----------------------------------

It's been two years since I wondered if I was the only brony alive, I put that in my YouTube videos for a joke, and I'm waiting for the day that just isn't coming, Fluttershy's goodbye... Do I get to keep her forever? Will I get to keep my growing tree? I just look at Fluttershy as I stroke her mane while she's asleep on my lap every night... waiting... for the critical end...

-----------------------------------

A year It's been since my last "journal entry", but Fluttershy has never been so happy, and neither have I. We celebrated my birthday a few months back and today we're celebrating her 21st birthday. At mid day when all the presents were open, the doorbell rang. I got up and said "I'll get it!", so I got to the door and opened it. No... Not today, please... It couldn't be like this now, could it? As infront of me was non-other the Celestia, as I saw her, my happy face dropped. My face went went white. All I did is just slowly shake my head side to side and mouthed "no...". She slowly, with a sad face, nodded slowly and said aloud "I'm afrade so...". What else could I do? All I did is just move out of here path and allow her to enter along with the main 5, 6 if they had Fluttershy, the moment I saw Dash I almost cried, she reminded me so much of My Little Dashie. I guided them to the front room, turned off the telivtion and closed the door. "I know why you're here.... And I beg you, please... Don't..." "We have to, and you know it." "JUST ONE MORE DAY!!!! Please, today is her birthday." "I'm afrade we can'...." "OH A PARTY!!! Who wants to play pin the tail on the pony?!?!" "Pinkie, we don't have time for games, maybe when we get Fluttershy the we will, sorry princess, you was saying?" "Thank you my student. Anyway, we don't have anytime to waste, so this is your..." I didn't hear what she was saying, I couldn't stop looking at Dash. "...Are you even listening to me?!" "What? Sorry Celestia, but Dash doesn't seem right, is it ok if I talk to her for a little bit? Please?" "Fine, but then we have to do it, understand?" "I understand, Celestia." I opened the door and gestured to Dash to leave the room with me, which she did. "What's wrong? You look like this is bringing back horrible memories" she started to cry, poor thing. "Cos it does, I lived this moment and re-live it every night in my sleep... It's painful and makes me wake up screaming just one word....." "What is it Dashie?" "....Dad.... I wake up screaming the word Dad... Ok? I miss him so much, I just can't forget him. I want to see him again. I'm glad Fluttershy had to live with a kind man like you." and by surprise, she hugged me and hugged me tight, she cried more on my shoulder then ever now. A little later I went back into the room and sat in front of Fluttershy and told her everything and why it was happening. Some of her friends helped "....and then you was gone! We missed you so much sugarcube!" "So I'm about to give you a memory spell that will give you back all your memories. Hope you understand" "I... I understand, but when will dad get to see me again?" there was a silence for a good 3 minutes. "That's the thing Fluttershy... I can't see you again... ever..." and here come the water works. "Wh... What? Why not?" "Well, you.... You don't belong in this world, you belong with these creatures that look more like your type of species. Like I told you many years ago when you found out you was from a tv show, you are a pony. You belong with these other ponies." "But... I trust and love you with my life, you must come with me, you must! Please Miss... Um..." "Princess Celestia" "Thanks, please let him come with me! Please!" "I'm sorry Fluttershy, but you need to come with us, to your home in..." "THIS IS MY HOME!!!!" Fluttershy started to cry even more at this point. "WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I WANT TO STAAAAAaaaaayyyyy?!?!?!?!" there was a 3 second silence, the only sound ways Fluttershy crying. "I am so sorry Princess, I have no idea what got over her, she has never acted like this for the 16 years I..." "I beg your pardon, but did you say 16 years? 'Cos she's been missing for 16 days." "Yeah, your days are my years, anyway, she never acted that way. Ever." "Well Fluttershy is just in a bad mood, how about a party?!?!?" "Pinkie, you came when we was having a party, a birthday party." "Oh, well no wonder she's cranky!" /)_- I honestly face-palmed at this point. I really wanted to yell NO SH... I'll stop there. After a while of Fluttershy calming down and learning to let go, she was ready to go. "Twilight, if you would do the honours please." "Gladly and woefully." Twilight's horn began to glow, and she started slowly walking to Fluttershy. I think everypony in the room was crying a little, I know I was, but Dash seemed to be crying a lot more. Wait...... Why is she crying a lot more then everypony else? Is.... Is My Little Dashie based on a true story? Is Dashie remembering what she was put through? I had a bit of time to ask what was wrong as Twilight was kinda milking it with the walking speed, I swear one pony yawned. "What's wrong Dashie?" "Don't call me that! My dad only has a right to call me that!" "Dash, I know what you went through." "No you don't!" "Let me show you something..." ".....fine, but make it quick." I took her to the tv, opened the draw underneath the tv, and took out a 23 paged book made of nothing but A4 paper. It had an image of rainbow dash hugging a weird looking pony, with fingers and... It wasn't a pony, it was a man, she was hugging a man, she was hugging her dad. "He... He wrote a book... About me?" "He wrote a book about the greatest 15 years of his life, and it was spent with you. Now you look me in the eyes and say that I don't know what you was put through..." she looked me in the eyes and opened her mouth "You know what I was put though, and I feel sorry you will have to too." I looked at Dash, picked her up and stroked her mane, we both watch Twilight go to Fluttershy, she was so close... "WAIT!!! Celestia, may I talk to you in private?" What the heck is happening?!?! Why did I ask to talk to Celestia in private? "Twilight, stay where you are, I'll talk to Mr.... I'm sorry what was your name again?" "Luke, Luke Mathaüs Sullivan-Corbelle" the last e in Corbelle is silent by the way. "Right, let's talk Mr. Luke." I walked out the room with Celestia, I went to my bedroom and I turned to Celestia. "I am so sorry Princess, I don't know what happened, my mind just said it and..." "Your mind made you say it? Huh, well, how about you let it talk then." She put her horn on my head and it started to glow. I found my self yelling, begging. "Please let me come with you! Yeah I have a nice job and lots of money but I'd give up anything and I mean ANYTHING to spend my life with Fluttershy and live in your world! I love it! Take me with you, your world is everything this world should be! You have real magic, we have fake magic. We predict the weather, you make the weather! We're trying to make the world perfect, your world IS perfect! Just please pleeeeaaaase take me with you, I beg you! Get me out of this world where everyone is the same and get easily stuck in an never ending routine that plans their day! It's always get up, go to work, go home, go to bed and repeat. With your world it's get up, LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST, go to bed and repeat. And your some of you pony-tales have a possibility of being true! Pleeeeeaaaaassssseeee take me with you!!!!" I shorty could control everything to do with my body, I could control my eyelids which were closed for some reason and my whole body, oh... I was in the begging pose... I slowly got up and straitened my cloths" I am so sorry Celestia, what made my brain say that?" "Me of course." "Oh, well sorry about making a fool of my self" after 10 minutes of talking, we walked back in the room, I just looked at Celestia and put my hands behind my back, she stared at me and nodded once, I nodded once back. "Ahem, me and mr. Sullivan have come to an agreement, that Fluttershy should go to the pony world and join her friends, as friendship is more important then family." "Friendship is also like family when you think about it." "Very well thought Mr. Sullivan." "Thank you. Twilight, would you again do the honers?" "Woefully Mr. Sullivan" "Just call me Luke, it'll be easier. Oh, and go a little faster then last time or the dramatic and sad mement will be ruined." and without interruption, I let Twilight do her job, she slowly went up to Fluttershy, I don't know if she will remember me or not, but I hope she has some memories of me so she knows that someone out there loves her, and will do anything for her. As Twilight was getting closer, the more I could remember everything, but it was going in reverse, from now to the very begining, as Twilight got really close to Fluttershy to give her back her old memories, I saw it... The moment which made me want to run up to her and give her the biggest hug of my life... The moment where I wanted to grab my hair and rip it clean off my head... The moment that made me loose my vision from the amount of tears coming from my eyes... I saw her... The way I first saw her, the way it all started.... And thats when time stopped. Literetly, something made it stop, but I didn't care. "What's wrong? Why are you crying so much?" said a gentle, loving voice "It's her... She looks like the way I found her, she looks so young, so cute, yet... So lost, but at home... Just let it end right now... JUST LET IT ENNNnnnnd" I leaned on the wall and slid down it slowly and put my head on my knees "Unless you have something you want to do or say, just end it...". And without another word, she replayed time, but it moved slowly, this wasn't from Celestia. But as time moved slowly, the foul Fluttershy looked at me, and I looked at her back. She opened her mouth and said..... "I love you dad" I just stared back and said "I love you too... my growing tree... and I will never forget you..." "neither will I daddy, I'll always love you". And it was over. A big white light let me know it was... I still could remember her, and I was still crying my eyes out. "Luke? Are you ok? Why are you crying?" "Fluttershy's gone mum, she's gone... To her friends in ponyville, and I don't know if she will remember me or not... But I hope she's happy with her life..." "Fluttershy? You're crying as if you spent most your life with her and had to let her go. You really need to stop watching My Little Pony." My mum put me on the couch and gave me some milk. She was gone from my mum and dads mind, Celestia didn't let them keep there memorise of her. "wait..." I ran upstairs to Fluttershy's room, nothing but a bed. I guess it was the guest room. "Luke! Come here!" I went downstairs and saw that mum was holding a book, I went up to her and asked to hold it, it was a memory book. Me and Fluttershy was in it. "Celestia.... you kind pony." I took it and went to put it on the top of a high book shelf, a piece of paper fell out of it. I picked it up and read it in my mind "Dear dad, these 16 years have been great. I learned so many things that my friends would love to hear about. I hope I never forget you as I couldn't have asked for a better dad, I may never see you again, but everyday I'll live life to the fullest for us both. Love from... Your growing tree..." I got soft, gentle tears running down my cheeks and drank the milk mum gave me.

Epilogue

Today is Friday the 13th, the day 6 ponies entered my house though the front door, and 7 left through no doors but instead used magic. The day I found a little creature, gave it some family love, raised it and called it my own. The day I still celebrate a ponies birthday for, even though they are not around anymore. The day I made a promise to live each day to the fullest for that creature I raised, I cared for, I called my daughter, I call her my growing tree, but sometimes I call her... My Little Fluttershy.

I decided I'll live wild tomorrow, but now was bedtime. I go to my bed room after a shower and go in the dresser that stores my cloths to put on some pjs, it seemed bright for the middle of the night cause there was a light at the back of my dresser and.... Wait... I don't have a light in my dresser.... I moved some cloths to look closer, and I got to the light... I poked my head in it, then blackness. I woke up later to some excited screaming "DADDY DADDY DADDY DADDY DADDY!!!!!" "Fluttershy, quit screaming, I'm trying to sleep...." I said as I was really tired. Then I fully woke up from realisation of what was going on, I was in Fluttershy's house. "FLUTTERSHY!!!!" I gave her the biggest hug that I ever gave anything in my life. "DADDY!!! I never thought I would see you again!!!" That's when Fluttershy's door opened and what would you know, some royal guards were stood there. Me and Fluttershy stared at them in fear "Fluttershy, what's happening?" "I don't know daddy" "Ahem! Princess Celestia would like to see both of you, immediately." I don't like the sound of that, but when we got there Celestia looked dis-pleased. "Mr. Luke Mathaüs Sullivan-Corbelle, you have come here to Equestria to do what?" "To live with my daughter. To be honest too, I saw a White light in the back of my dresser so I didn't think I would be visiting" "Well you should of! Don't you remember the agreement we had?" "I do, daddy let me go to ponyville to be with my friends" "Also I could come and see my daughter at anytime I wanted and still live my normal life outside of ponyville and Equestria." "Wh... What? And you didn't tell me dad?" "Sorry, happy birthday I suppose?" "Oh shoot! It's my birthday today! I should be returning to ponyville and get back to the party!" "We moved it here ages ago, so enjoy your party little one." "Thank you Celestia" "Oh, and Luke, you can't walk around Equestria like that, here." she put her horn on my head and I felt odd, it's like that feeling you get when you feel shorter but you're still the same size. Celestia gave me a mirror and showed me what I looked like. My dream pony, I looked like him! My creation! My Cutie Mark was a person holding a little yellow creature, showing that my special talent is being a farther, after looking at my pony, I went to Fluttershy's party. The guys were surprised to see me there, and the celebrated even more. All but Rainbow Dash... It was more obvious she was upset as everyone in the room was happy. I thought I would slip out the room without telling anypony and talk to Celestia. 1 Hour later, the doors to Fluttershy's birthday party opened, everypony went quiet and stared at me and the person I was with. Dash looked at him, the man and slowly walked to him and stopped in front of him. "Daddy?" "Dashie?" they looked at each other, and smiled, and they hugged each other and didn't let go. "I missed you so much dad..." "I missed you too Dashie..." I sniffed here "Somepony get me a tissue.... This is very touching when you know what happened before this." Shortly after the party continued, Dash's dad made the same agreement as I did, Dash was reunited with her dad, I got to be a pony, and everypony was happy. Both me and... My Little Fluttershy.
