"I can handle it"

by ThatOneFurryGamer


I guess it's up to me now

Angel hopped quickly through the halls, his heart pounding. This tiny pony was dangerous! He rounded a corner, and saw her trotting towards him. He ran up the stairs and saw Fluttershy passed out. Now who's going to control that filly! he thought, panicking. He hopped down the stairs before the filly could corner him in there. He saw her coming again and ran to the nearest door, slamming it as hard as his tiny bunny arms could behind him. Free, at last! But she was so small and cute... Stop it, me! She tried to maim me! he squeaked angrily at himself. But really, who was going to take care of her? If he didn't do something, Fluttershy might get in trouble for not being able to take care of the filly. He groaned. Fine. You convinced me. He bounced back into the humble hut.

Immediately, a playful filly ran at him.

She began to drag him through the air with her magic. This is kind of fun, He admitted to himself. Right before he hit a wall.

When Angel woke up, the young alicorn was using her magic to make him ride a plush snail's shell. He groaned. His head still hurt from the impact. He saw a bird fly by and motioned it over.

"Hey! Psst! Can you get me away from this kid?" Angel squeaked to the bird.

"Sorry, man. She's a princess! I can't mess with a princess!" The bird chirped, flying away.

Angel groaned, for possibly the millionth time today. If only she could understand that he was alive too. Suddenly, he fell. Thankfully, the snail plushie cushioned his fall. He looked up to see what had stopped the filly. It was a real snail. It looked similar to the plushie, now that he thought about it. It was yellow with a green shell. It looked so small and innocent, crawling across the floor. Flurry heart was mesmerized. Maybe she'll finally learn that other things besides fillies are alive, he thought, pleasantly. Just maybe.
