//------------------------------// // Ep. 27 - Fluttershy's Bath // Story: Little Bear's Adventures in Equestria // by CAPTAIN YOSHI HD //------------------------------// It was a rainy day in Ponyville. Fluttershy and Little Bear were stepping outside the cottage to get the mail. At that moment, the clouds cleared and the rain stopped. Fluttershy rushed to the mailbox and looked inside. "Is there anything?", Little Bear asked. Fluttershy shook her head. "It's nothing important, Little Bear, everyday I just check my mailbox to see if I got anything.", she said. "So, you ready to start our day?" "Sure.", Little Bear said. "But, you should take a bath first, I filled a huge bucket of water for you." "Oh, okay.", Fluttershy said. "But, don't you want to look at the wonders?" She galloped along the grass, right when she slipped on the mud and landed in muddy rain water. Now, she was all muddy head to hoof. Little Bear laughed. "Spoke too soon, haven't you?", he asked. "It is one way to get dirty before taking a bath.", Fluttershy said, flying into her cottage and leaving a trail of mud dripping off. She went to the bucket of water and dipped her whole body in. Little Bear came upon and began making her laugh. First, he made a bubble statue that looked just like Fluttershy. Then, he got bubbles from the water and put them on the underside of his chin making a great big beard. "Ho ho ho.", he said. Fluttershy laughed. "Alright, time to get to cleaning.", Little Bear said. He got some bubbles and scrubbed behind Fluttershy's ears. He then grabbed a brush, wet it, and scrubbed Fluttershy's forearms. As it happened, Fluttershy giggled. "It tickles, Little Bear.", she said. "Well, don't laugh so much.", Little Bear warned playfully as he scrubbed the other forearm with the brush, still making her laugh. Fluttershy was finished with her bath. After she got out, Little Bear grabbed a towel and dried her up. "You look really clean.", he said. "So, you ready to start the day off now?", Fluttershy asked, unwrapping herself from her towel. "Of course we can, Fluttershy.", Little Bear said. The two ran out of the house and ran through the streets of Ponyville and enjoyed their day.
