Fluttershy, founder and only member of the Ponyville Animal Welfare Society, handles her dear forest friends as if they were her own family. One day her favorite fox, Cross, comes down ill; and with no bits for the medicine, old personal wounds are reopened as she strives to make her friend return to full health.
