One Ingredient

One warm, sunny day, Fluttershy was feeding all of her little animal friends. She was rushing around from here to there feeding them one by one. She fed the birds their seeds and the squirrels and mice their nuts. Once she was done feeding her animals, she wiped some sweat from her face in relief. Fluttershy trotted over to the kitchen and stopped in her tracks only to find a angry and impatient bunny tapping his foot on the ground hard. She looked down and sighed. "Oh, hi Angel Bunny, I um, was just about to come find you," said Fluttershy. Angel still angry and tapping his foot impatiently waited for Fluttershy to make his breakfast.

Fluttershy noticed Angel waiting for her and said,"Oh, im sorry, what would you like?".

Angel stopped his tapping and rushed over to the counter and grabbed a cook book and ran back to Fluttershy. Angel flipped to a page that had his favorite meal in it: Carrot Salad.

Fluttershy saw what Angel wanted and said, "Okay Angel Bunny, i'll be done before you know it." And with that, Fluttershy was off to the kitchen and getting the ingredients ready.

"Okay, let's see what I have, lettuce, check, oranges, check, cucumbers, check, seeds, check, cream cheese, check, cherry, check, and finally, apples, che-," Fluttershy froze.

"Oh, I know I have some apples around here somewhere."

Fluttershy checked the refrigerator first, no apples their. Next, she checked the cabinets, still no apples. After that, she started checking drawers, cuboards, and other things she thought there might be some apples in.

Fluttershy had no luck. She checked everywhere she could and still found no apples. Fluttershy only had one thing to do if she were to have Angel's breakfast complete. So, she grabbed her saddlebag and some bits, and flew over to Angel. Angel looked up at her and saw that there was no breakfast in her hooves prepared for him. Angel looked up her and got angry.

Fluttershy noticed and said, "Im sorry Angel, I have to go to the market and get the last ingredient for your yummy breakfast." Angel, still angry, jumped up ont he couch symboling that he was waiting for her. Of course, Fluttershy noticed that and she told him, " I'll be back before you know it, you be good for mommy okay?

And with that Fluttershy was off to the market.

When Fluttershy arrived at the market, she saw that the sky was getting grey with the rain clouds, so she decided that she should probaly hurry. Fluttershy saw that there was not that many shops still open. Some were packing up, and some were already closed. Fluttershy thought that the shop she wanted to go to was probaly closed, so she would probaly have to go to Sweet Apple Acres to get the apples. But after wandering for a few minutes she found her target. Fluttershy flew over to the market and stopped right in front of it, expecting to see Applejack, but only to find a rather large red stallion packing up.

Fluttershy notcied the packing up and lifted up her right hoof and tapped it on the stallion's shoulder. The stallion noticed and turned around only to be met with a yellow pegasus mare with a pink mane partly hiding one of her eyes. There was a awkward silence between them and than Fluttershy finally spoke up.

" Um, hi, not to be rude or anything, but, where's Applejack?" she asked.

The stallion stared at her than said," Applejack is at the barn helping ma little sister with her chores," the stallion answered.

"Oh, ok," Fluttershy said. Another silence fell between them.

Than the stallion spoke up and said," So would you like anything before ah finish packing up?".

"Oh um, y-yes please." Fluttershy said.

"What kind?" he said." Oh! Um, gala apples please, if you don't mind." Fluttershy said.

" Ah dont mind." he answered.

The stallion turned around and got some gala apples out of a box and handed them to Fluttershy." Your one of Applejack's friends, right?" the stallion suddenly said.

"Oh, um yes." Fluttershy said.

" Then in that case, free of charge." he said.

Fluttershy looked up at him in shock." Oh I can't let you do that," Fluttershy said.

"No friend of ma family is paying in my world," the stallion said.

" Oh, but I insist," Fluttershy said.

" Nnope," he answered.

"Please?" Fluttershy asked.

"Nnope," he answered again.

"Oh, ok, I dont want to argue," Fluttershy said defeated." Fluttershy took the bad of apples and put them in her saddlebag and said," Thank you very much, I am very grateful."

"Mah Pleasure." He said

. Fluttershy started to fly into the air then stopped and turned around and asked,"I almost forgot to ask you, what's your name?"

" Mah name is Big Macintosh, and yours?" He answered.

"Oh my name is Fluttershy," She said. And with that, Fluttershy was off to her cottage to finish Angel's breakfast.

Once Fluttershy got to her cottage, she flew inside and placed the gala apples on the counter and got out all of the ingredients once again. She got out a bowl and started preparing Angel's breakfast. First, she put in the lettuce, then the oranges, than the cucumbers, and then topped that with more lettuce, then a thin, full circle orange slice, than the cream cheese, then she sprinkled on some of the seeds, and then she put some cut up apples around the bottom of the lettuce, and then the finishing touch, the cherry.Once Fluttershy was done making his breakfast, she flew over to where Angel was sitting, and placed the finished breakfast right in front of Angel.

" There you go Angel, your tasty, yummy breakfast is finally ready!" Fluttershy said. She sighed in relief as she was finally done with Angel's breakfast, but, while Angel was eating his yummy breakfast, Fluttershy was thinking of something, or somepony, and that pony was Big Macintosh.
