Hello, here is my next story called Weekend Studying. It's going to be a two shot and then there's my three one shot fics. Please enjoy the story.
Chapter one: A Weekend Planning.
It was a clam and soothing night in the village of Ponyville. While most of it's residents were nodding off into a deep and heavy sleep with the knowledge that the princesses were watching over them. But there was one pony still wide awake from all the excitement she had gone through. She lived by herself in a cottage with dozens of animal friends to keep her company. She was the current bearer of the Element of Kindness, Fluttershy, as she was combing her hair and talking to her 'pet' rabbit.
"Oh, Angel. You would have been so proud if you saw mama deal with that huge dragon." she said to her little furry friend, who seamed less then impressed with his owners day as he laid in his small bed and tried to get some sleep. As she watched him nod off in his sleep, Fluttershy let out a sigh as she was not as sure of herself as she told she finished combing her hair, she plopped on her soft and was getting ready to allow sleep to take her. That is, until the phone rang. She slowly got up, went over to the new invention, and picked it up.
"Hello?" she asked as she was not sure who would have been calling her at this time, and then a voice she new all to well came in from the other line.
"Hey, Fluttershy. Did I wake you?" the voice belonged to her close friend, Twilight Sparkle.
"Oh, no Twilight. I was just going to bed. Is something wrong?" she asked as she was not sure what her friend needed.
"Oh, nothing. I'm just calling telling you that I had sent the report from today. Well, I'll leave you since..." Twilight was about to hang up, and Fluttershy interrupted her.
"Wait Twilight. I-I need to ask you something." Fluttershy said in a meek tone.
"Yeah, what is it?" Twilight asked.
"C-Could I borrow Spike for the weekend?" FLuttershy asked as she was unsure of what Twilight would think of her request.
"Why would you want to borrow him?" Twilight asked as she felt a little hurt from what she was being asked.
"W-well, you see. I want to get over my fear of dragons. So, I thought if I could study Spike's habits. I could get a better idea for them and might be able to get over my fear for good." Fluttershy explained the best she could as she hoped not to offend her. After a few minutes of silence, she heard a responds.
"Sure, as long as you treat him with the respect you would a pony." Twilight explained in a stern tone.
"Oh, of cause I will. Oh please don't tell him. I want to keep it a secret that I'm studying him." Fluttershy said meekly as she was still worried from Twilight's reaction.
"So, what do I tell him?" she asked as she was not sure of what her shy friend had planned for Spike.
"Oh, I'll tell him I have a reward for him taking such good care of my animals." Fluttershy explained her plan to study Spike. After a few more minutes of silence, Twilight answered her.
"Sure, I'll tell him in the morning that you'll pick him up in the after noon." Twilight said as they finished their conversion and hung up their phones.
The next morning, Fluttershy went through her normal routine in feeding her animals and taking care of her hair, and such until she was ready and then headed into town. After a ten minute walk through the calm woods and lessoning to the birds sing their lovely songs, she had arrived at the market area of Ponyville. Fluttershy shivered from the large crowed of ponies walking around as they shopped and worked for a hard day pay. She meekly walked through it, trying her best not to bump into any pony and then she got to her destination, her friends Rarity's boutique. She calmly walked up the steps and then proceeded to knock on the door, and after a minute or two, Rarity answered.
"Oh, why hello darling. Please come in for some tea." Rarity said as she turned and was ready to let in her friend.
"Oh, no thank you Rarity. I'm here to asked you for a favor." Fluttershy said in her calm tone as she stood there for a moment, waiting for her to answer.
"Why sure Darling. What is it?" Rarity asked with a sweet tone as she wanted to know what her friend needed from her.
"I would like some of your finest gems." Fluttershy said in a meek tone and with a straight face. Rarity was a little confused from this request as she stood there for a moment, and then she spoke.
"What do you need them for?" Rarity asked as she was not sure if she could fulfill this request.
"Well, I'm having Spike at my house for the weekend to say thanks for all the things he did for us in the little time he's been hear." Fluttershy explained as she had a small smile on her face as she waited for Rarity's response.
"Sure, I have few spares you can have." she said as she went back into the house and then she returned with a bag full of gems, and then she hoofed them to her.
"Thank you Rarity." Fluttershy said as she took the bag and then placed it in her saddle bag. She then bid her a farewell and then she went on er way to find her other surplice.
After her meeting with Rarity, Fluttershy headed off back through the crowed and walked down the street until she got to her next destination, the Sugar Cube Corner. She proceeded to walk into the bake shop and saw that it was a bit busy, and she had every intention on waiting quietly in line until she got to the front. That is, until she heard a very hyper voice call to her.
"FLUTTERSHY. Over here." the meek pony looked around the line and saw the resident party master, the Element of Laughter, Pinkie Pie. Fluttershy meekly got out of line and headed towards the counter, and once she got here, she meekly looked at her friend and spoke in a soft tone.
"Umm, P-Pinkie. D-Do you thing it's right for me to cur all of them?" Fluttershy asked as they both looked over to the line full of ponies, and most were staring at them with a slight glare.
"Oh, don't worry. I'll just put an extra cupcake in their orders." Pinkie said in a very loud, cheer voice and that seamed to be satisfied with it as their stares seam to lesson. After seeing glares vanish, Fluttershy seamed okay enough for to ask what she came here for.
"Pinkie Pie, can I ask for a special cake be made for me and Spike using these." she said as she removed the bag of gems and placed them on the counter. Pinkie looked inside and saw what was asked of her, and when she looked up for the bag, she had a big smile.
"Oh, a challenge. Sure, I should be done at five." Pinkie Pie said as she took the bag and placed it behind the counter for later. After this, Pinkie offered her a free cupcake, to which Fluttershy took and began to eat it as she walked out of the bakery, and towards her next stop.
After the bakery, Fluttershy headed out of town and towards the famous Sweet Apple Acres. As she walked down the dirty path, she set her eyes on the apple orchard and just stared in awe at the rows, upon row of the sweet objects of nature. Not long in her walk, she finally arrived at the farm house of her dear friend and possible the strongest pony ever, Applejack. As she walk on to the property, she heard the sound of powerful hind legs hitting an apple tree andso she decided to follow the noise to who ever was making it. After a few minutes of following the noise, she came to a large area with barrels full of apples and others empty, it was then that she heard a voice call to her.
"How'dy Fluttershy. What brings you here this morn?" the voice belonged to the tough as nails earth pony, Applejack.
"Oh, well. I have a little this planned tonight and would it be okay if I have some apple cider for it." Fluttershy asked with a smile, but got a confused look form Applejack.
"Oh, you really want some of our special cider? You sure sugar cube, it's pretty strong." Applejack said as it wa her turn to get a confused look on her face, until Fluttershy figured what she was asking and then responded.
"Oh, no. I'm having Spike over the week end as a thank you to him and thought we could use a special drink for the event." Fluttershy said as she blushed heavily and then they both laugher at the confusion.
"Sure, I'll have Big Mac bring it over around 4. Kay?" Applejack said with a smile as she tried to catch her breath.
"Oh, sure. Now I'm off to Twilight's to get him." Fluttershy said as she turned and began to leave, but not without hearing Applejack.
"Alright, have fun on your date." she said with chuckle and she got a small blush from her friend.
After her final meeting, Fluttershy took notice it was in the afternoon and with a big smile she totted back towards town and asfter ten minute, she was in front of the library. She went right up to the front door and then she knocked very calmly. After a few minutes, the door opened and out popped Spike head.
"Oh, hey Fluttershy." Spike said in cheerful tone as he opened the door fully and allowed the meek Pegasus to enter his house, he shared with Twilight. Fluttershy walked in and there she saw Twilight at her desk, studying. "Hey, Twilight. Fluttershy's here." Spike announced as he walked forward and made sure she knew her friend was there. Soon after his announcement, Twilight shut her book and then turned to reveal a small smile.
"Thank you Spike, now please go gather your things while I talk to her." Twilight said as got up from her chair and walked towards Fluttershy.
"Sure, I'll be right back." Spike said as he took off up the stairs and headed towards his room. After he was out of ear shot, Twilight turned towards him and began to speak.
"Look Fluttershy, I'm sorry about last night. It's just, he's very dear to me." Twilight said as she looked down and blushed a little form her statement.
"Oh, I hand no idea you felt that way about him Twilight." Fluttershy said as she smiled at her, and then Twilight let out a lite laugh as she got a confused look from her.
"Oh, no Flutterhsy. Not like that. He's been my best friend for years and he's all was been goo to me." Twilight explained her self to Fluttershy.
"Oh, I see. Well, what really made you so upset?" Fluttershy asked as she was not sure what had hurt her friend from last night.
"Oh, that. Well, you see. Some ponies were a little to excited to find a dragon in Cantorlot." Twilight explained, but she got a confused look from Fluttershy, so, she continued, "SOme want to study him, others enslave him and treat him like a pet, and one even want to dissect him."
"Oh, My, Celstia." Fluttershy said as she placed her hooves over her mouth and was in pure shock at how cruel some ponies could be.
"That's the worst. One stallion tried to hunt and stuff him/ And then there was this weird cult leader that wanted to sacrifice him in an attempt to summon Nightmare Moon." After telling her that, Twilight tuned away form and then added, "So, please treat him with the respect he deserves." Soon after hearing that, Spike came back down with a bag in claw.
"Alright, I have all stuff..." SPike was cut off as Fluttershy pulled him in a sudden hug and squeezed him tight.
"Oh, Spike. I'm so sorry for how other treated you." she said with a worried tone as she did not want to let him go.
"Well,...that's great Fluttershy. But could I please breath." Spike asked as his face turned from purple to a dark blue. Fluttershy let go of him instantly and blushed bright red as he caught his breath. After all that, Spike placed his bag on her side and then hopped right on to her back.
"Ready?" Fluttershy asked as she stood in front of the door and looked back at him to make sure he was all set.
"Ready when your are? I've never been on a Pegasus's back before." Spike said a little excited. After hearing that, she smiled big as she trotted out, puffed out her wings and then she looked at him.
"Hold on tight." she said as she lifted her self off the ground and then flow them off towards her home, leaving a smiling Twilight at the door.
TBC.
Well, that's it. Sorry if it's not to my usual standard. My mind's been else were. SO, I'm putting this on hiatus for one week so I can do my first non-MLP one-shot.
