While Fluttershy was walking to Sweet Apple Acres, she noticed the sky getting darker and darker from the rain that was about to come in. So she picked up the pace. But while she was speed walking, she heard a tiny crackle of thunder. Fluttershy heard that and started running a little faster. While she was jogging, she heard the thunder getting louder like rice crispies popping in a bowl, but louder. So she ran even faster. While she was running, the thunder got to the loudest point yet, to the point where it sounded like fireworks popping LOUD in the sky. That made Fluttershy scared and she screamed. She needed to get there before it started raining. She needed to.
But it was to late. It started pouring down rain. She saw lighning strikes hitting the ground and she heard the thunder louder than she had ever heard. Fluttershy had a phobia of loud noises. Fluttershy screamed and she ran. She ran as fast as her little legs could carry her. She had tears streaming down her eyes, but barely noticable in the rain. She screamed, but couldn't be heard over the loud thunder. She was terrified.
When she saw her cottage in view, she ran and ran fast. When she finally got there, she slammed the door open and slammed the door shut and locked it. When she was done locking the door, she turned around a leaned back against it and slid down. She exhaled and was breathing in and out.
Fluttershy was shivering from the coldness of her house, and the coldness from the rain. Her animals noticed that, and quickly went to get her some towels and blankets. When they got back, they quickly went over to Fluttershy and wrapped the towels and blankets around her tiny body. When they were finished, they went back to their homes and proceeded to what they were doing previous. When Fluttershy was comepletly calmed, she wrapped the blankets around her a little bit harder, and got comfortable. Fluttershy sighed. Her heartbeat got slower and she felt a little better.
Fluttershy closed her eyes slowly, and fell into a deep sleep.
Fluttershy woke up from the sound of thunder rumbling. She had forgotten that she had fallen asleep. She sighed and and sat up. Still having the blankets wrapped around her, she slowly got up and went to the kitchen and made herself a little snack. She sat down at her table, still having the blankets around her, and started eating. Like always, Big Macintosh came into her mind. Fluttershy gasped when she realized that she had forgotten that she hadn't asked Big Macintosh about going to lunch with her yet, for a 'thank you'.
She finished her snack and unwrapped the blankets that were around her and placed them back where they were safe inside the closet. Safe. Wish she was safe from all the voices in her head asking her to go and ask Big Mac to lunch with her. She sighed. She noticed it getting dark outside and decided to go to bed and just fall asleep and let all her troubles fade away until morning came. She wished morning would never come. How did she feel about Big Mac? Did she really like him?
Nah.
So Fluttershy when upstairs to her bedroom and tucked herself in and just fell asleep. But she had a hard time falling asleep. The voices were back in her head telling her to get up out of bed and go to Big Mac and ask to lunch. But Fluttershy refused and shut her eyes tightly and tried to fall asleep. After about ten minutes of rolling around in her bed trying to go to sleep, she finally fell into another deep sleep.
