//------------------------------// // Chapter 3: Friends? // Story: Magical Fox // by EquinoxTheFox //------------------------------// We walked from the big structure where I slept last night, which I later found out was called a barn, to a small cottage by the forest, it was buzzing with activity from other animals. The animals seemed to know the three fillies that I was walking with, in fact, some birds even greeted them on the way in. Once we got to the door the filly with the white fur knocked, a few seconds afterwards a pony three times my height opened the door and looked down at us. She had yellow fur with a pink mane and seemed a little nervous. "Oh, hello girls." She greeted with a sweet sounding but shy voice. "Hello Fluttershy." All three responded sounding somewhat excited. 'Fluttershy' noticed me and addressed me, "Who is your friend? That is if you don't mind me asking." “Well we don’t know it’s name, we brought it here so you could help us.” Said the little white filly. “We found it in mah sisters barn sleepin’, we didn’t know what else ta do with it.” Added the red haired filly. “Alright, come on in.” Said Fluttershy. We followed her into into the cottage. It was easily justified that she LOVED animals but she didn’t seem to know what I was, I wondered if the ponies even knew that we existed. The Orange filly asked, “So do you know what it is?” Fluttershy answered, ”Well I haven’t seen anything like him, Twilight might know or have a book on him though.” All three asked, “Him?” Fluttershy blushed a small bit, “I’ve been observant of him since he came in, he also seems pretty nervous so be careful with him.” I blushed a bit too noticing just exactly what she saw. Fluttershy spoke up again, “Why don’t you girls go get Twilight and me and him will stay here?” “Ok!” responded the trio and they walked out the door.
