The Love Demon

Prologue

“C’mon, Shy! We gotta go!” an annoyed Bunny kept tugging on her Mistress’ tail in an attempt to make her walk to Twilight’s.

“No, Bunny”

“WHAT?!”

“I said no”

“You’re…coming…with…me!” Bunny tugged on her tail even harder.

“No…I’m…not!” Fluttershy dragged her tail up with her apprentice still on it, twirled it, and eventually dizzied Bunny enough to let go. The alien fell on the ground. Still persistent, she was about to pounce until her ears perked up at a sound.

“Oh, what now, old girl?”

“Do you hear what I hear?”

“Like what?”

“Sounds like…Twilight screaming!”

That caught Fluttershy’s attention. “Where?!”

Bunny closed her eyes, concentrating to where the source of the sound may be. She listened intently until eventually, her ears pointed to the direction of the screams. “That way”

Fluttershy turned her head to the direction, and there she saw, Twilight and Rainbow Dash were falling down and screaming for their lives.

“I’ll get Rainbow, you save Twilight” Bunny said as they took to the air.

“Bu…Bunny, how will you…?” Fluttershy was about to finish her sentence, but her apprentice already morphed into a Pegasus. She didn’t look like any other Pegasus she had seen before. No, she looked like how she could look if she wasn’t an alien. She looked like a filly, but her coat was entirely orange. She had spots of bolder orange on the ends of her front hooves, and her tail and mane were all bold orange. Her eyes were still the same cerulean color, but she had her diamond spot on her forehead. And she had no cutie mark.

Twilight screamed at the top of her lungs, at least until she felt something hold her. When she opened her eyes, she saw it was Fluttershy. Bunny managed to catch Rainbow just in time too.

“Fluttershy! Phew! Thank goodness! Wait, who’s that?” Twilight pointed to Bunny.

“Oh, that’s just Bunny. She learned to morph into a Pegasus”

That’s when Rainbow noticed. “Woah! That’s cool, Bun! You can even fly. Thanks for saving me”

“Don’t mention it, but now we have to get you to Ponyville Hospital”

All three nodded in response. Fluttershy flew with Twilight, while Bunny carried Rainbow Dash. Right as soon as she went to the operating room, Bunny morphed back to her original form, breathing heavily. Rainbow was really heavy! Fluttershy and Twilight waited outside for their friend. Twilight tried to assure her friend that her foalhood friend would be alright. But Fluttershy, being the most fragile, was worried throughout the entire time. At last, the door opened and Rainbow came out, a cast across one of her wings. “The Doctor said it was just a sprain, in a week I’ll be able to fly again without spraining it again”

“Thank goodness” Fluttershy breathed a sigh of relief.

“At least everything will be fine now”

Bunny was about to nod, but then her right hind leg turned dull red. She knew what that meant. Before she could even react, her eyes glowed white, she inhaled, and chanted. “Nobra timu nora les timalus soverano nonso lovitus confirmus Mane Sixa curato sono bitino nasa wikot fallus Love Pioson doble Sweetie Belle trinu Twilight para datus Rarity. Oncu Kibo Suru fantus, sneeza.” She said all this and fainted.

“Bunny? Bunny?!” Fluttershy shook her friend, but there was no response. “I have to get her back home”

“She saw another vision? What’s happening to that Servant?” Rainbow asked.

Twilight was about to agree and say she was about to leave too, but that’s when she noticed something on Fluttershy’s hooves: Bruises. “Hang on, what happened to your hooves?”

Fluttershy looked at Twilight as she put Bunny in her saddlebag. “Oh, these? I don’t know, I just wake up every morning and they would just appear and disappear throughout my body. I even once had one on my left cheek. Is it still there?” She pulled her mane away from her face to show.

Twilight gasped at the mark. “Yes, it’s all over your cheek”

Fluttershy covered her bruised cheek with her mane again. “Well, I’m just gonna go home now”

Twilight shook her head and stopped her friend. “Hang on, I’m coming with you”

“No, Twilight, it’s okay. My apprentice just fainted from a vision, it’s not like I’m gonna pass out too”

She took a few steps in an attempt to prove it, but she suddenly felt quite queasy. She held her head in response, but was about to collapse. Luckily, Twilight managed to catch her with her magic before she actually passed out. Fluttershy thanked Twilight when she got back on her hooves.

“See? You’re in no condition to go it alone for now”

“But what about your playdate with Rarity? Or your date with Pinkie?”

“It could wait another day. Wait! How did you know that?”

Fluttershy pointed to Bunny. “She flies around as a canary and stops by every now and then to check on all of us, remember?”

“Yep, that’s our Bunny. Rainbow, we’re gonna go ahead, okay?”

Rainbow faked a smile. “Yeah yeah. Go ahead”

Just then, Bunny popped out, looking like she was having a vision again. “Savieto sabrine Rainbow Dash”. And she plopped back down, fainted again. Without another second’s waste, all three ponies ran in their own directions.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Along the way, Fluttershy and Twilight ran into Rarity, she had Opal with her. “Oh! Hello, Twilight!” she greeted but her smile was short-lived when she noticed her best friend was with the lavender mare. “What’s she doing here?”

Twilight spoke as Fluttershy cringed down. “We ran into each other, she saved me from falling from the sky while Bunny saved Rainbow with the wing sprain. We got Dash to the hospital, when she came out, Bunny had a vision and fainted. Then I noticed there were bruise marks on Fluttershy’s body, she nearly collapsed, so I decided to tag along to make sure she would be awake when we get her home.”

“I see. Fluttershy saved you?”

Twilight nodded. “She did. Can we have our playdate some other time? I’m really sorry, but I don’t want two of my friends to faint on the same day”

“I understand” Rarity smiled, but deep down she felt jealousy. Was her best friend really trying to get Twilight? What if her apprentice just faked fainting? Did she pretend to fall so that Twilight would catch her? A million thoughts raced in her head. Just then, Bunny popped out again and did the same thing, except for a minor change in her chanting. “Saviento sabrine Rarity” And yes, she fainted again. At least now, the marshmallow Unicorn was convinced her alien friend wasn’t faking. Bunny wasn’t even a drama queen!

“We better hurry! Since when did she get multiple visions all at once without breaking?” Twilight asked as she put Bunny back in the bag.

Then she and the alien’s Mistress ran off after bidding Rarity goodbye.

When both were out of sight, the Unicorn turned to Opal. “What do you think? Who will win?”

____________________________________________________________________________________________

“Twilight, take Bunny out of the bag” Fluttershy said when she and Twi got to her cottage. The yellow Pegasus rummaged through the drawers of her cabinet until she found what she was looking for. She picked up Bunny, and put what looked like a Baby’s Breath flower on her apprentice’s nose.

“This always works. If Bunny smells Baby’s Breath flowers any time after she faints from a Vision Pain, she will wake up immediately. It will also make her hyper again” Fluttershy explained. She was right. When Bunny smelled the flower, she sneezed on Twilight and woke up.

“Wh-what happened? Did I faint?”

“Pretty much. Sorry about that, Twilight”

“Whoops! So sorry!”

Twilight wiped her face with her hoof. “It’s alright, I didn’t know that you sneeze after smelling Baby’s Breath”

Bunny slightly smirked when she saw Twilight’s eyes glow slightly pink, and back to normal. She heard a foot stamp made by Angel, and decided to go talk to him. In the kitchen, Bunny used Translate on Angel to allow him to speak.

“You fainted, didn’t you?”

“Yep” Bunny slightly cringed.

“What vision?”

“Pretty much my suspicions are right. The sneeze contained the antidote because I put the last drops in the Baby’s Breath. Although, because Sweetie Belle put a second in the tea Twilight drank to make her love Rarity, it only removed the Rarity love, Pinkie’s is still in there.”

Angel face slapped. “Well, you got the other ingredients needed to cure ALL of them, right?”

“Yep” Right then, she heard the door close, and Fluttershy crying. “Duty calls” she closed her eyes and hung her head annoyed.

“I’ll get the others to bed”
