//------------------------------// // A vacation of epic proportions! // Story: Flutterdash: The sequel // by tallon567 //------------------------------// Chapter 3: A Vacation! Fluttershy awoke in a small pool of sweat, she had nightmares about what had happened the previous night she looked next to her to see her beautiful wife sleeping soundly next to her, she grinned. ‘How did I get so luck?’ she thought to herself. She got out of bed to start her routine, but first, Fluttershy thought. “Make a nice breakfast for Rainbow Dash for saving me!” not like Dash would want a thank you, but she wanted to do it anyway. She walked in their kitchen and started making an egg and pancake breakfast (dash’s favorite of course) and brought it up to her. She nuzzled her side “Rainbow Dash… wake up! I made you something.” Rainbow Dash opened one eye, and replied with a few tired groans that were inaudible. She saw the plate and immediately sprung into a full state of awake. “Oh my god, thank you SO MUCH Fluttershy!” Rainbow Dash got up and hugged Fluttershy in a full-tackle hug and they both fell to the ground. “umm…R-rainbow d-dash yo..your welcome…b-but your h-h-hurting me.” Rainbow Dash blushed and got off the shy pony. “Heh, sorry. But you didn’t have to do this” Rainbow Dash started eating her breakfast when they heard a knock at the door “who could that be?” Fluttershy said as she approached the door, she opened it and a pink pony threw herself on Fluttershy. “p-pinkie pie, please get off me” Pinkie Pie got off Fluttershy and 3 other ponies joined her in the living room. “We heard what happened last night, and we came to make sure you two were ok.” Twilight Sparkle said, Rainbow Dash walked out of the bedroom. “Hey guys, what are you doing here?” she said Pinkie Pie grinned her usual large grin “we’re inviting you two on a VACATION TO THE BEACH!” Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash looked at her in awe “t..the beach?” Fluttershy said “ as in, the canterlot beach?” “That’s the one!” Pinkie Pie said. The two mares jaws dropped. “You don’t have to take us on a vacation, we’re fine. Trust us!” Rainbow Dash said “You both almost got killed, and terrorized, you deserve a vacation, to get your mind off this whole thing” Twilight sparkle chimed in. They walked into the kitchen and Rarity made breakfast for the six of them. “So, we’ll give you an hour to pack and we’ll meet at sugar cube corner, ok?” Rarity said, taking a small and “ladylike” bite of her toast. They all finished their breakfast and cleared out of the cottage. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash began packing for their adventure. “How long do you think we’re going to be there?” Fluttershy said “AJ told me 2 days, so you don’t have to pack THAT much.” They continued on with their packing and small talk and the occasional joke or two. After they finished packing they set off for sugar cube corner. They took flight and flew towards town, where the four other mares were waiting with saddle bags strapped to them. Ponyville but still a long walk, they made it just in time and boarded the train “Are y’all ready to go now?” Applejack said in her usual southern drawl. The couple nodded in reply and Twilight handed everyone a ticket. “Come on girls, the train leaves in 30 minutes, so we have to hoof it down to the train station if we’re gonna make it on time.” They all set off down the road to the train station, which wasn’t far from Ponyville, but still a long walk. They made it just in time and boarded the train. The train’s engine started humming and they were on route to canterlot! “What do you think they have at the beach?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Well, according to this map, they have a boardwalk with lots of activities on it, and there’s the sea, Fluttershy, they have lots of nice sea creatures there” Twilight said, the train ride continued for about 20 minutes and everyone got to talking about what they want to do “I brought the grapes of wrath, its such an eloquent book.” Rarity said holding up her book with magic “ahm gonna try and sell some treats on the boardwalk, maybe I’ll get better service than the Gala” Applejack said with excitement “OH OH, IM GONNA PLAY THE GAMES THEY HAVE THERE, MAYBE THERE’LL BE A PARTY! I LOVE PARTIES” the five other ponies stared at Pinkie for a moment then continued the conversation. “Im going to see all the little sea creatures that will at the water!” Fluttershy said, imagining her fun. “I’m gonna stick with you Fluttershy, cause frankly, I don’t have any “special” plans for this trip…” “Princess Celestia told me to do some research while we’re here, so I plan on doing that.” They finally arrived at the canterlot train station. They all filed out and got their luggage. They hit the beach and soon split up (but no one cares about the other four right? Good,cause I don’t ^_^) Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash walked down the beach, holding hands talking small talk, such stuff as “what do you think about the beach?” and... “I wonder if the princess will be here!” and even…. “I wonder if the princess will ever be overthrown” to which Fluttershy protested against such gruesome topics. They finally found an empty area, one with no people, two chairs, and an umbrella. “They’re walking towards the spot, good work girls, not let’s get out of their hair.” Twilight said (did you think Applejack wanted to ‘sell apples’ or twilight wanted to ‘study’?” The couple walked towards the set-up and sat down in the chairs “oh my… this was so lucky, and the suns setting as well!” Fluttershy said she scooted (scootalooted) her chair closer to Rainbow Dash’s and grabbed her hand. “I love you Dashie” She said “=) I love you too Fluttershy” they both leaned in and kissed a very passionate kiss. Then, something horrible, or, it might have been horrible, Rainbow Dash wasn’t sure happened. She felt an abrupt force that felt like a brick hitting her in the stomache.
