Afterlife

Day 6: Bunny hunt:

I woke up as Spike called‘’Breakfast is ready!‘’

I got up and I walked down to Spike and Twilight, who began to eat, as I walked over to them Twilight said ‘’Good morning Star, did you sleep well?‘’

To where I yawned before answering ‘’Good morning, yeah but I’m still a little tired.‘’

Twilight only chuckled before saying ‘’Well yesterday was a busy day.‘’

A few minutes went by before Twilight broke the silence by saying ‘’Oh… I almost forgot to tell you, first of, since nopony in town knows who you are-‘’

‘’Then I don’t remember where I’m from and I’m adopted as your little sister and I live with you.‘’ I said.

She had a weird look on her face, as she looked at me, before she sternly said ‘’Star… It’s rude to interrupt while others are speaking and if you really need to say something and it’s not an emergency, then I want you to raise your front hoof. Do we have a deal?‘’

A bit ashamed, I nodded and she continued ‘’Good, as I was saying… I have decided that you should not enter school, at least until you have gotten used to living here in Ponyville and the other thing I wanted to say is, if you are planning on going out, I want you to tell me before you go, deal?‘’

‘’Deal. But do I have to go to school at some point?‘’ I asked as I ate the last of my breakfast.

‘’No, not at this moment, but maybe one day. But for now, let’s just take it one day at a time.‘’ Twilight said.

I nodded and while showing my bowl, I said ‘’I’m finished, may I go to my room?‘’ Twilight nodded and before I rose from the table I said ‘’Thanks for the breakfast.‘’

Inside my room I took the history book from yesterday, went out onto my balcony and turned to the page I was at as I continued to read.

A lot of time passed until I was finally done with the book, as I looked around, I noticed a yellow Pegasus with a long pink mane and tail, she looked familiar and I thought ‘Must be Fluttershy, I wonder what she is up to?

At that moment our eyes met, she flew over to me and with her shy timed voice she said in a little state of panic ‘’Hi… Um… have you seen a little white bunny? If you are not too busy I mean, oh I’m so sorry I didn't see that you were reading, I’m sorry, I- I’ll just go now.‘’

As she flew away, I quickly called ‘’Fluttershy wait, I haven’t seen a white bunny, but do you want help to find the bunny?‘’

Slowly she came back and asked ‘’A-are you sure, I don’t wish to disturb you.‘’

‘’No, I’m sure, will you go with me to tell Twilight, so I won't get in trouble.‘’ I asked, but thought ‘She did help me back in Canterlot, so this is the least I can do.’ Together we walked in and after Fluttershy had explained the whole thing to Twilight, she and Spike offered to help as well.

As we looked through the town, Fluttershy suddenly asked quietly ‘’You know my name’s Fluttershy, but what's your name?‘’

I swallowed hard, as I had to say ‘’Star Sparkle, but just call me Star.‘’

She gave me a sweet smile as she said ‘’Well, it’s nice to meet you Star.‘’

Before I could respond Twilight said ‘’I think it’ll be better to split up, to cover more ground, Star you go with Spike and we’ll meet back at the library in an hour.‘’

Fluttershy then said as she grabbed something from her saddlebag ‘’And if you see Angel, give him a carrot and say that you’ll help him back to me.‘’ Spike then took our carrot and we went on our way.

A long time passed by, as Spike and I looked and called ‘’Angel! Angel! Fluttershy sent us to find you! We have carrots!‘’

As Spike asked some ponies if they had seen the bunny, I noticed a white bunny and slowly went over to it as I asked ‘’Angel?‘’ The bunny looked at me and looked confused, I then asked again ‘’Are you Angel? We are helping Fluttershy to find you.‘’ At least he reacted to when I mentioned Fluttershy, he nodded and I turned to Spike and signaled for him to go over to me with the carrots, after Spike gave me one, I offered it to the bunny, who within a second ate it and after he was done he jumped on my back and then the top of my head and fell asleep.

As we came back to the library Fluttershy and Twilight was already there and as we came over to them Twilight asked ‘’What kept you two?‘’

I showed the bunny on my head and asked ‘’Is this a good enough reason?‘’

Twilight quietly giggled to not wake up the bunny. But when Fluttershy tried to lift the bunny off my head as he was close to waking up, so instead Fluttershy turned to Twilight and asked ‘’Is it okay if I take Star home with me? I don’t want to wake up Angel.‘’

Twilight looked at me and I smiled so she said ‘’Alright, but make sure she's home before 7pm.‘’

‘’Thank you Twilight, I will.‘’ Fluttershy said before we walked, but to not wake up Angel, we walked in silence.
