Chapter 2 - Fluttershy's Tiniest Caregiver

"Now, who would like some play time with the royal plot?" Twilight Sparkle asked.
"I would say the Goddess of Kindness." Radiant said. Twilight placed him on her plot.
"Now have fun and worship it." Twilight winked.
"Will do," Radiant said "I can talk to you telepathically when I make progress." He saw a yellow pegasus in the distance.
"Hello, Twilight." the pegasus said.
"Fluttershy, come in and sit down." Twilight sat down as well, hoping that Radiant stayed on. She didn't want the Fluttershy to know about him just yet. Radiant looked at the colossal pegasus, blushing. Twilight pressed against him and the couch.
"Oh!" Radiant yelped. He struggled to get off.

"I'll be right back, Fluttershy. I'm going to get some orange juice for us." Twilight stood up and walked away.
"That was close." Radiant said in relief. He looked at Fluttershy. "Hi!" He called.
"Huh? Who said that?" Fluttershy asked, she looked around.
"Down here!" Radiant called "On the couch!"
Fluttershy looked down and her eyes lit up. She picked up the tiny pony immediately. "Oh my, you are so cute." She blushed as well.
"Yeah," Radiant said, blushing, "I'm Radiant Sword. Twilight shrunk me so I can do the Trials of Friendship. I wanted to learn about Kindness."
"Oh. Well, why are you so small to learn then?" Fluttershy asked.
"Because I want to meet you as big as a goddess," Radiant said "You're the Goddess of Kindness."
Fluttershy blushed redder. "Well, I can't ask you to do anything for me." She said shyly.
"Can you take me to your place?" Radiant asked "I want to see what it's like to befriend small animals and insects now that they're bigger than me."
"Oh, um, I suppose so but let's wait for Twilight. I wouldn't want her to be scared that her little friend is gone." Fluttershy said.
"Okay." Radiant said.

Twilight came back. "Oh, Fluttershy. I um, I see you've been acquainted with Radiant." She said. Fluttershy nodded.
"Is she nice to you, Radiant?" Twilight asked.
"Yes," Radiant said "Very nice."
"That's good. Did you still want your juice, Fluttershy?" Twilight asked.
"Oh, yes, please." Fluttershy drank some, "Did you want some?" The yellow pony asked.
"No thank you," Radiant said "I just had a drink."
"Okay." Fluttershy began to drink. "So what were you two studying really?" She asked. Twilight was too embarrassed and nervous to talk about it.
"I'm learning about Friendship." Radiant said.
"Is that all? She hasn't hurt you has she?" Fluttershy whispered in Radiant's ear.
"Not at all," Radiant said, "She's gentle to me."
"That's good to know," Fluttershy said, "Don't let her royalty abuse you."
"Okay." Radiant said.

The animal goddess smiled and placed him in between her legs until she was ready to leave. "Wait for me!" he called. He caught up with Fluttershy before she left.
"Oh right," Fluttershy lowered her wing to allow Radiant to climb on.
"Thanks, Fluttershy." Radiant said as he got on.
"I hope my wings don't bother you." Fluttershy said.
"They don't appear to be," Radiant said "But can I ride on your muzzle?"
"Oh, well, I don't exactly want you to feel uncomfortable." Fluttershy said.
"Okay." Radiant said "Any ideas?"
"What do you feel most comfortable with?" Fluttershy said.
"Your mane." Radiant said "It's so soft..."
"Oh okay." Fluttershy smiled. She placed Radiant in her mane. "Hang on tight." She said. Her pink vines began to blow in the wind as she started to trot. He hugged her mane. "I hope it feels good." the goddess said.

Fluttershy passed a speech given by Donald Trot. "We need to make Equestria great again," he said "And the way to do that is to build a wall by the Everfree Forest to protect us. And we will send all the changelings and Mexihays back. And we will make them pay for it." The ponies cheered.
"I don't understand him," Fluttershy said to Radiant, "He seems so mean."
"Yeah," Radiant said, "He's too confusing."
Fluttershy reached to her cottage. "Are you ready to meet my friends?" She asked.
"Yes," Radiant said "Please let me see your friends."
Fluttershy opened the door and the first pet that approached her was angel. She took Radiant off and handed him down to the rabbit. "This is angel." She said. The giant rabbit sniffed Radiant.
Radiant smiled warmly at the huge rabbit. The rabbit pushed the tiny pony down.
"Angel." Fluttershy said. She picked the tiny pony up and asked, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah." Radiant said.
"I'm so sorry for Angel bunny. He's usually not this mean." Fluttershy said.
"Can you take me to your smaller friends?" Radiant asked.
"Sure." Fluttershy said.

Fluttershy picked Radiant up and trotted over to her humming bird. "This is my other friend," She said "He's a real sweetheart."
"Hi." Radiant said to the large bird. It chirped happily and shook his hoof with its wing. "A pleasure to meet you," He said, he then asked Fluttershy, "What's smaller than a hummingbird?"
"A bee, baby turtles, a lot of things." Fluttershy said.
"Can I see the butterfly?" Radiant said.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Fluttershy said, "She hurt her wing yesterday when leaf hit her."
"Oh, dear..." Radiant said, then asked, "Can I help her? I am good at healing magic."
"Well, alright," Fluttershy said, "This way." She led him to a room where the butterfly was laying on a small bed. The butterfly looked so big to Radiant, her wing was in a small bandage.
"Doctor Radiant here," Radiant said "Do you miss your days of flying?" The butterfly looked at him and nodded slowly. "Don't worry, I'll help you restore your former glory." He said. The butterfly fluttered her good wing once. He used magic to restore the her bad wing. Her color was restored. She flew up and flapped her wings. She flew down to him and hugged him with her legs. "Can I have a ride?" Radiant asked. The butterfly shook her head.
"After her accident, she's afraid of things riding her or things that have may weigh her down." Fluttershy said.
"Oh, bummer," Radiant said, "Sorry I asked."

"But I'm sure my hummingbird would give you a ride." Fluttershy smiled.
"Okay," Radiant said "I could've used magic to make myself lighter. But oh well. I'm sure she'll reconsider due to how much I cared for butterflies."
"You know, for what you did, there must be something I can do " Fluttershy said.
"And that is?" Radiant asked.
"I don't know. I'm not sure how to repay you." Fluttershy said.
"A kiss from the Goddess of Kindness." Radiant said, blushing at her. Fluttershy smiled and blushed as well.
"I can do that." Fluttershy bent down and kissed Radiant softly and warmly. The tiny knight kissed and massaged her lips.
"I love you, Fluttershy, the Goddess of Kindness..." Radiant said.
"I love you too, little one. Thank you for helping my friend." Fluttershy said.
"You're welcome, my cute goddess..." Radiant said.
"You think I'm cute?" Fluttershy blushed.
"Yes," Radiant said "No matter how big you are, you are quite a cute heroine."
"Thank you." Fluttershy said.
