//------------------------------// // Fluttershy's Shooting Star // Story: Adventures of love // by Woogabear //------------------------------// Fluttershy happily walk along the edge of Everfree forests looking for a special flower that only comes out at night. It was the only thing that Angle Bunny would eat lately. Fluttershy sighed, there was only a little of this special flow out tonight. She was about to start walking back to her cottage, when she looked at the night sky. There was a shooting star, Fluttershy was about to make a wish when she heard: "HELP!!!!!!!!!!". Shooting stars don't yell, for help that's a pony!Fluttershy ran to where the "star" had landed, trying not to be scared that she was running straight through the Everfree forest. There was a clearing up ahead and laying in a crumpled ball was a pony. Fluttershy cautiously approached. She heard groaning coming from the pony as she got closer. "Soarin?" "Fluttershy, is that you?" "Soarin, what happened, actually don't answer that I have to get you home." Fluttershy said with a worried expression. Fluttershy left Soarin' and returned with a makeshift gurney. She gently slide Soarin' on it and attached it to her back. "Don't worry Soarin' you're going to be all right." Fluttershy said more convincing herself than Soarin'. Once they got to Fluttershy's cottage she laid him on the couch. "Okay Soarin' this might hurt a little but I'm going to have to move you around a little to see what injuries you have." Said Fluttershy gingerly. After about five minuets of poking and prodding Fluttershy had come up with a conclusion. "Well Soarin' it looks like your Right front leg is broken and your left back leg, also your left wing is sprained and your right wing is complety broken, you should recover fully, other than that your just bruised and beaten." Fluttershy said that so quickly and quietly that Soarin' only got about half of it. Soarin tried to lift his head to look at her but felt a sharp pain in his back and decided against it. "Fluttershy you didn't have to bring me all the way to your cottage. I'll just go to the inn someplace." As Soarin' said it he tried to get up and walk, but failed miserably. "Oh you're not going anywhere mister, I am more than happy to take care of you while you recover." Fluttershy said more assertively. "I'm sure you have a bunch going on. I wouldn't want to intrude on your privacy." "There is no changing my mind Soarin'. You are staying here." "Okay jeez if you insist." Soarin' said giving her that goofy grin that she had fallen in love with. Fluttershy hid behind her hair to hide her blush. Soarin' was already drifting to sleep from exhaustion and pain. Fluttershy decided to go to bed too. As Fluttershy laid in bed she began to get embarrased by her force in keeping Soarin' here. Her blush grew as she started to think about all the wonderful days they had and nights. Am I really thinking about getting back with Soarin'. Of course he would never get back with me. With that final thought Fluttershy drifted to sleep. The next morning Fluttershy fed all her animals and made a muscle relaxer for Soarin'. She also got several bandages and supplies to make a cast. She entered the living room with everything and sat by Soarin'. He wasn't awake yet so Fluttershy decided to wait. She found herself starring at his rumpled blue mane, and his very toned body that had once been hers. He had a very angular handsome face that Fluttershy had always liked to touch. The more she thought about him the more she wanted to be with him. Soarin's eyes started to flicker open. He was pleasantly surprised to fine a very pretty mare looking straight at him. "Good morning sleepy head." She said in that angelic voice. "Good morning" He said trying to muster the best smile he could get. "Sorry I kinda crashed at your place last night." "It's fine you can stay as long as you want. I have to wrap your wings so they don't get any worse." Soarin' shifted his weight so that she had access to both of his wings. Fluttershy firmly wrapped Soarin's wings tight to his body. Fluttershy had to reach across his body to wrap his other wing. "Not afraid to get close to me are you?" Fluttershy immediately shot back and backed away from Soarin', blushing pink clear across her cheeks. Soarin let out a laugh that turned into a groan. "I was kidding Fluttershy take it easy." Fluttershy noticeably relaxed and continued to wrap his other wing. "Still the joker I see." Said Fluttershy with a hint of humor. "So how did you get like this?" Soarin' turned slightly more serious." Well we were practicing are evening performance and I was supposed to launched out of a cannon. But some jokester put in more launching fluid than I was used to so I spun out and I tried to slow my fall but it only help slightly. Then I landed right were you found me in the Everfree forest. I don't know what would have happened to me if you hadn't been there. I owe you my life Fluttershy, thank you." Fluttershy blushed then turned angry. "It's that kind of reckless behavior that gets someone hurt, whoever that prankster was he should be punished." Fluttershy said angrily. "You being mad is kinda a turn on." Fluttershy punched him in the arm playfully. "Just for that I'm going to make your cast pink." "No not pink!" Soarin' said in fake dispair. After about an hour he was all bandaged up and was starting to doze. Fluttershy looked at him while he slept remembering all of the intimate times they shared, there long preening sessions and late night walks. Fluttershy was beginning to realize that she still loved Soarin'.
