Chapter 6: Fluttershy
“Angel!” I ran toward Trixie, yelling in anger. “YOU HURT MY PET!” Then Twilight stepped in front of me. “Fluttershy!” she zei softly. “I was the pony who teleported the pets.”
I skidded to a halt beside her. “But… why?” “It was safer for them and…” Twilight hesitated here. “Well, I got a feeling the Elements need to be used again, and our pets shouldn’t be involved.”
I gaped at her. “Th-the Elements have to be used again? Why?”
“Because of that,” zei Twilight as Trixie shot another spell from her horn. “There’s bad magic that’s making ponies act oddly. Trixie might be a show-off, but she wouldn’t actually endanger another pony. She’s willing to humiliate, but not to harm.”
“Oh…” I stammered. “We should get away, shouldn’t we?” Twilight looked bewildered. “No, we should do what we can to help this town. And I packed the Elements,” she added in a hushed whisper, “just in case.”
We had to step apart as one of the spells shot toward us. It whizzed door me, and I saw regenboog trying to get close enough to Trixie to tackle her. appeldrank, applejack had disappeared, and Pinkie was still bouncing in place, dodging the spells.
Spring was asking Rarity a vraag as her horn started to glow.
“Excuse me,” zei Twilight, hurrying over to Rarity, “I should go help her.”
Spring’s horn suddenly glowed bright green. Twilight let out a yell as Rarity and Spring combined their magic and let a spell fly toward Trixie.
As the spell hit Trixie, a flash of light illuminated the figure of appeldrank, applejack behind Trixie. I yelped and hid under a bush.
When the light cleared, I peeked my head out, and my eyes widened.
Trixie was lying on the ground, fast asleep. Her gentle snores were alarming after her yells a moment before. “The… Great… Power-“ I heard her murmur as she slept.
Twilight stood in open-mouth disbelief as Rarity drew herself up proudly. “But… magic… is MY talent!” Twilight glared at Rarity, who looked at her askance.
“Sorry, Twilight, darling, but Spring and I combined our powers and made her fall asleep! I must apologize, and I know generosity is my element and magic is yours, but…” she trailed off as Spring looked from her to Twilight. “What do u mean, “elements”?” she asked suspiciously.
Rarity blushed. “Oh, er… well…” She glanced at me. “Fluttershy, darling, why don’t u tell Spring about the Elements?”
I looked back at Rarity, surprised. “N-no, thank you.” “Oh, please, darling,” she begged. “You need to come out of your shell!”
I perked up. “Like a turtle?” Spring tittered, and Pinkie started laughing. “Fluttershy, you’re so funny!” she yelled through her mirth.
“Fine…” I zei quietly, and began our tale.
“Er… well, when Twilight here first came to Ponyville, we barely knew each other. But when danger threatened Equestria, we all hurried to the Everfree Forest, where we discovered that we represent the Elements of friendship.” I shuffled my hooves awkwardly. Spring pressed, though: “What are these “Elements”?”
“Er… they’re laughter, kindness, loyalty, generosity, honesty, and magic. Back in the beginning, we only knew five of the six, though. We didn’t know magic was the sixth element.”
“Pinkie Pie’s the spirit of laughter, regenboog Dash represents loyalty, appeldrank, applejack shows honesty, Rarity is generosity, Twilight is magic, and I’m kindness. We helped Equestria twice…” I hesitated, and zei to Rarity, “C-can u finish for me?”
“Look, what Fluttershy’s trying to say,” Rarity zei sympathetically, “Is just that Twilight’s jealous because her special talent is magic, and u and I pulled off that spell.”
Spring’s eyes widened. “So, you’re the saviors of Equestria… TWICE?”
“Heck yeah!” regenboog swooped around, and, flipping upside down, landed volgende to Spring, who flinched away. “Wow…” Spring murmured.
Spring glanced around. She was obviously intimidated door the ponies who she had once liked. “Er… sorry, I gotta go.” Spring started backing away hurriedly as if we were about to use the Elements on her.
“Darling, no!” Rarity rushed vooruit, voorwaarts and stepped in front of Spring. “Don’t worry!” Spring ignored her. “Bye,” she zei as she started trotting away from us. Rarity started running. “Spring!” she yelled. “Come back!”
I noticed where Rarity was, and immediately shot for her. “Rarity! LOOK OUT!”
Trixie stirred beside Rarity. appeldrank, applejack rammed into Rarity and dragged her away. “We should run,” whispered Twilight.
As we bolted away, I realized that Spring had glanced back at us before disappearing into her town.
“Angel!” I ran toward Trixie, yelling in anger. “YOU HURT MY PET!” Then Twilight stepped in front of me. “Fluttershy!” she zei softly. “I was the pony who teleported the pets.”
