A pegasus with blue fur and an orange mane wearing a safari hat looks through her binoculars and sees animals around the woods. She saw a woodpecker, a squirrel, and a turtle. She sighed. "I'll never find a bear.", she said.
Then she heard laughing from a field where Little Bear, Twilight, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Spike, and Starlight were playing tag. Twilight was it.
The pegasus went out into the field, trying not to be seen. She wanted to surprise the group. She darted to the tree, went into it, and got a closer look while hanging on to a branch.
Rarity was running around the tree until Twilight finally caught her. Twilight flew into her and knocked her on her back. Rarity was laying on the ground while Twilight had her hooves pin her body down into the grass. "Haha. Gotcha, Rarity.", she laughed.
Rarity giggled. "You got me.", she laughed.
"Alright, Twilight, you're it.", Little Bear said.
"You know, I'm starting to like this game.", Spike said.
"Me two.", Pinkie said.
"I've never played something like this when I was filly.", Applejack said.
"Me neither.", Rainbow Dash stated.
"I'm usually busy feeding the animals in my cottage, but I never chased them around, otherwise I would cause a ruckus.", Fluttershy said.
"I'm pretty sure a lot of animals can cause a ruckus.", Starlight added.
"I'd never start a ruckus, you all know I'm not that kind of animal.", Little Bear said.
"We all know, Little Bear.", Applejack said.
"Twilight, can you get off me, so I can start chasing you?", Rarity asked, teasing her friend and raising an eyebrow.
"Well, catch us if you can.", Twilight laughed, getting off Rarity and flying everywhere.
The group started running when Rarity got up on her hooves and started chasing her friends around the field.
"Going to get him at a steady rate.", the Pegasus whispered as she waited for Little Bear to be under the branch. As Little Bear was about to be under the branch, she leaped off and landed on top of him. The two fell, causing the others to gasp.
"Whew, that was quite a landing.", the Pegasus said.
"MOM?!", Rainbow Dash shouted, shocked.
The Pegasus is Rainbow Dash's mom, Windy Whistles. She lives in Cloudsdale along with her husband, Bow Hodhoof. "Hi, Rainbow Dash.", she greeted.
"Excuse me, can you get off me, please?", Little Bear asked, still being crushed by the rainbow Pegasus's mother.
"Oh, sorry about that dear.", Windy said, getting off the bear and helping him to his feet. "Didn't notice you." She was about to head toward her daughter, but she stopped and noticed something she was looking for. "Oh my gosh, you're a bear! Sharp teeth, two big claws, a furry belly, and two big feet."
"And I can talk, too.", Little Bear added.
"Oh, you can... talk?", Windy asked.
"Of course I can.", Little bear said. "Why, am I not supposed to-"
"No, it's okay.", Windy said. "It's just that I've seen a lot of bears that don't talk in Equestria."
"That's because I'm from here, I'm from another world.", Little Bear said.
"Oh, you're not from here?", Windy asked.
"He's new to this place, Mom.", Rainbow Dash said.
"Of course.", Windy said. "Thank you for pointing that out, Dear."
"So, you're Rainbow Dash's mom?", Little Bear asked.
"That's right, I'm from Cloudsdale.", Windy said.
"What's that?", Little Bear asked.
"It's a place in the clouds.", Windy said. "I been supportive for my daughter for years, until me and my husband found out she's a wonderbolt. Then, after a while, she showed us that she now appreciates our support and forgave us."
"Wow, Cloudsdale doesn't sound like a bad place.", Little Bear stated.
"Of course it isn't, you'll love it there.", Windy said.
"Can you take me there?", Little Bear asked.
"Sure.", Windy said. "I was planning on studying bears, but since I met you for real, I guess I could get to know you."
Rainbow Dash felt her nerves burn inside her. "Um, Little Bear, can I have a word with you... in private, please?", she asked, shyly. She and Little Bear hid behind a tree to talk privately.
"What's the issue, Rainbow?", Little Bear asked.
"About my mom, I wouldn't think she'd be the best newest friend.", Rainbow Dash whispered in Little Bear's ear.
"But, she is your mom, right?", Little Bear asked.
"Yes, I know that.", Rainbow Dash said. "It's just that... she's been an embarrassment to me through out me life."
"But, after all these times, you've forgiven your parents.", Little Bear said. "I think it's about time I get to know someone's parents. Do you trust me? You have to, Rainbow, I really like her."
Rainbow Dash didn't Little Bear running into trouble with her mom. But, it would hurt her mom's feelings if she didn't let her spend time with Little Bear. So, she made her decision. "Okay, Little Bear, I trust you.", she said.
"Thanks, Rainbow Dash.", Little Bear said. He ran from behind the tree and went over to Windy, which had her safari hat off. "You won't regret it. So, how do we get there?"
"Well, I have wings, so we fly to Cloudsdale.", Windy said, taking Little Bear by the armpits and zooming into the sky.
"Have fun, Little Bear.", Fluttershy said, waving to them as they flew off.
"I hope it's not too much trouble spending time with somepony else's mom.", Twilight hoped.
The two made it to Cloudsdale. They landed softly onto a cloud. Little Bear took a look around. "This is what Cloudsdale looks like?", Little Bear asked.
"It sure does.", Windy said. "Let me give you the grand tour." She showed Little Bear the water factory where they make snowflakes. Then, she took him to where they make the rainbows. Then, she took him to where they make the steam.
"I guess Cloudsdale is a really awesome place for Rainbow Dash.", Little Bear remarked.
"Yeah, it sure is.", Windy said. "Since I showed you the whole, do you want to do what I like to do when I'm not around in Cloudsdale?"
"Sure.", Little Bear said. "What do you like to do?"
"Go to the beach.", Windy said.
"That sounds like fun.", Little Bear said.
"But, I have to go back to my house to get some stuff.", Windy said. "Oh, since we're going there, I can show you my house." She and Little Bear went over to the house.
"That's a nice house you got there.", Little Bear complimented.
"Thank you.", Windy said. "I've been taking care of Rainbow Dash in this house ever since she was little. We took baths together when she was a foal."
"I bet she reminded you to scrub the back of her ears.", Little Bear said.
"Oh.", Windy laughed. She booped the bear in the belly. "Boop!" Then, she went into the house. She put on her swimsuit, she grabbed her beach balls, sand shovels and buckets. Then, she headed out her house, took Little Bear by the pits once more, and flew over to the beach.
Little Bear and Windy finally arrived at the beach. They both landed on the sand softly. "Alright, I cannot believe we made it.", Windy said.
"I cannot believe it either.", Little Bear said. "The sun's really bright for a day at the beach."
"That's why you have to wear sunscreen every day when it's really sunny.", Windy said. "So, you want to play catch?"
"Yes.", Little Bear said.
Windy flew to six feet away from Little Bear and threw the ball at him. Little Bear caught the ball and the threw it back at Windy. Windy caught it and threw it back at Little Bear again. "This is beautiful, this day is amazing.", Little Bear said, catching the ball and throwing it back.
"Yes, best beach day ever!", Windy cheered, catching the ball and throwing back to the bear.
But, instead of Little Bear catching the ball, it hit him in the stomach and knocked him down to the soft sand. Little Bear laughed as he spread his body around the sand, as Windy flew circles around him, she was laughing as well.
Little Bear tried to still laugh at the fun, but he let the texture of the sand overcome him, causing him to fall asleep and snore like an actual bear.
Windy giggled as she picked up her sand bucket, scooped up some sand, and poured it on Little Bear's belly.
Little Bear woke up and saw Windy scoop up more sand and poured on Little Bear, covering up his sides and waist. "Hey, what are you doing?", he asked.
"I'm burying you.", Windy laughed, as she scooped up more sand and poured it on Little Bear's thighs.
Little Bear went back to sleep as Windy covered Little Bear's knees up with sand. Windy then covered up Little Bear's lower part of his legs. She then covered up Little Bear's feet with sand. Windy continued to put more sand on Little Bear until it was a big oval mountain on Little Bear's body. She then covered his arms with sand. She then poured more sand on Little Bear making the sand go up to his chin. Then, she poured even more sand, making go over Little Bear's face and covering the top of his head.
All of a sudden, the sand shook with a growl underneath. Then, there came a roar. Little Bear jumped out of the sand, with sand covered all of him head to toe. "I am the sand monster.", he said, getting ready to chase Windy.
"No, don't get me!", Windy said, running away from Little Bear. "Don't get me!"
They ran to the water and jumped in. The water washed off all of the sand from Little Bear's body. Their heads sprung out and looked at each other. "You're not a sand monster, you're Little Bear.", Windy said.
Little Bear began running around the water. Windy joined in. Then, they both jumped in the water once more. "Whew, that was a lot of fun.", Little Bear said. "Thanks for that, Windy."
"Anytime, Little Bear.", Windy said.
They both walked out of the water, Windy was tired from all the playing. "You know, I think I had enough for today.", she said. "What do you say we head home?"
"That sounds like a good idea, I'm tired two.", Little Bear said.
Windy took Little Bear to Twilight's castle. "Well, I guess that's the end of the day.", Little Bear said.
"Thank you for spending time with me, Little Bear.", Windy said. "I really had a lot of fun playing with you at the beach."
"You're welcome.", Little Bear said. "And I got to say, you raised a pretty great flyer, I'm sure you're a great flyer two."
"Thank you, Little Bear.", Windy said. She kissed him on the cheek and flew off into the sky.
"Bye.", Little Bear said, waving to the Pegasus.
