Growing up in equestria

by Liaf112


I'm not an it! I'm a him!

Dylan wakes up with pain coming from his forehead and knees. He notices that he is in a bed in what looks like hospital room. Dylan hears some voices coming from outside the room.

"-didn't mean to knock him over, Fluttershy. It was a totally uncool accident! I just saw it with you three and just wanted to check it out, but...I got hit with a huge gust of wind that sent me out of control. I am so sorry Fluttershy." Says a voice that Dylan does but also doesn't recognize.

"I know you didn't mean it Rainbow, but you knocked him out. He probably has a concussion, and to make it worse no pony knows exactly if we can use our kinds of medicine on him because he isn't a pony, because we can't use any pain killers he is going to feel all of w-what happened." Says the voice that Dylan immediately recognizes as Fluttershy.

Dylan slides to the end of the bed and gets off of it. He slowly moves to the door and opens it. He sees Fluttershy and another pony that he doesn't know yet that has a light blue coat and a rainbow mane and tail.

"M-Miss Fluttershy?" Dylan calls out into the hallway.

Fluttershy and the rainbow colored pony turn to face Dylan. Fluttershy rushes over to Dylan and gives him a hug. Dylan returns the hug as strongly as he can. Fluttershy pulls away to say something.

"Oh Dylan, I was so worried about you! I t-thought you might be in to much p-pain to m-move." She says while tearing up.

"I-I'll be alright mom, I've h-had a lot worse before." Says Dylan reaching out and getting the tears out of Fluttershy' eyes.

"Whoa! Did you just call Fluttershy Mom!?" Asks the Rainbow pony.

Dylan puts his hands to his mouth and says "OH, I'm sorry I-I didn't, I m-meant, I-I-I....."

"It's alright Dylan, you can call me mom after all I-I do kind of want to adopt you...um...i-if that's alright with you that is?" She says trying to calm down Dylan.

Dylan doesn't respond verbally he just hugs Fluttershy hard and buries his face into her shoulder. Rainbow smiles at this but then clears her throat. After that both Dylan and Fluttershy stop hugging and turn to listen to her. She walks up to them and sits down.

"So you're adopting it?" She asks Fluttershy.

Dylan speaks up quickly "I'm not an it! I'm a him!"

"Whoa easy there big guy, hehe, you are adopting 'him' right Fluttershy?" Says Rainbow to them both.

Fluttershy nods and says "Um...yes."

"Well then maybe we should go introduce him to the Cutie Mark Crusaders. After all he probably would be going to the same school as them." Says Rainbow. "Do you know where they would be right now?"

"Um...I think I heard them say they were going to spend the day at Rarity' house today." Replies Fluttershy.

"Right so lets go there and 'he' can meet her too." Says Rainbow in a confident way. She then adds "Oh uh, also, my names Rainbow Dash and I'm sorry about accidentally flying into you kid. I got out of control."

"I-It's alright Miss Rainbow, it was an accident and I only got my knees scraped and a bump on my head. I r-really have had a lot worse before. One time I broke my arm and it was in a cast for a long time. It hurt a lot more than this, hehe."

"Well you seem to be one tough little guy, aren't you?" Says Rainbow while messing with his hair. She stops and says "Well, come on you two lets go meet Rarity and the Cutie Mark Crusaders."

They all start walking toward the front entrance of the hospital. They stop at the front desk to check Dylan out. At the front desk sits a pony with a white coat and a pink mane and tail wearing a nurses hat.

"H-hello Nurse Redheart we're here to check Dylan out of the hospital." Says Fluttershy.

"Okay then, let me just get you the papers to check out and you all can be on your ways. Oh, also it is nice to meet you while you are awake Dylan." Nurse Redheart says to them.

Dylan blushes and hides his face in Fluttershy' mane, this makes all of the ponies around him start giggling. After they finish giggling Nurse Redheart gives Fluttershy and Dylan their paper work and they fill it out. After they finish the paper work Dylan asks Fluttershy where his cupcake is.

"Oops, we almost forgot it in your room. I will be right back with it." She says and trots off to go get it.

Dylan and Rainbow stand there for about half a minute when she breaks the awkward silence by clearing her throat.

"Ahem, so...what exactly are you?" She asks with a look of curiosity on her face.

"Oh yeah, I'm a Human. Everyone keeps asking me that, I have no problem explaining it but it does get kind of old explaining it over and over." Dylan says.

"Oh cool...so what is a Hu-man exactly?" She asks even more curious.

"We're kind of like really smart Apes but we look and act a little different." Dylan says.

"Oh okay awesome." Replies Rainbow.

Fluttershy walks back up to them carrying a brown paper bag in her mouth she gives it to Dylan.

"Thanks mom!" Says Dylan giving her a hug.

"Come on you two we need to introduce you to Rarity and the fillies." Says Rainbow.

They head out of the hospital and then in a direction that Dylan hasn't been yet.

I wonder where we are going next. Thinks Dylan
