When Sly awoke from his nap he smiled, as he looked at Winona sleeping next to him. “Well I’m sorry to say it’s time to go, but Pinkie Pie wanted me to bring Sly by Sugar Cube Corner so that she can see him since she hasn’t yet.”
“Right because she didn’t come with us to the castle. But Ah hear she’s been making up for it by spending a lot of her free time partying with those creatures in it.”
“Well, all except the garden last time I spoke with her. It seems that Kit has closed that section off, at least a large part of it, but she says she still likes to go there and play with Chomper.”
“Oh right, how is the big guy?”
“I’m not sure, Pinkie says he’s lots of fun, but makes sure she stays out of the restricted area of the garden.”
“Ah wonder what he’s up to.”
“I’m not sure, but he’s been so good recently, I’m sure it’s nothing, maybe just trying to make the place more fun.”
“Ah guess, but we’ll have to talk with Twilight about it this afternoon.”
“Oh right, when everyone is going to meet up and let the little ones have a sleepover at Twilight’s.”
“Darn tootin’. But ya’ll better get on your way, wouldn’t want Pinkie to miss out seeing the little feller.” Applejack looks over at Sly who’s curled up closer to Winona. “And if’n we don’t get him awake soon he’ll be up all night.” with that Applejack walked over to Sly and Winona and picked Sly up getting the little fox to whimper, waking up Winona and getting her to jump to her feet. “Ah know little one, ya don’t want to go but ya got to, Fluttershy is going to take you to go see another friend.” Sly only looked down at Winona with sad puppy eyes.
“But I don’t want to go.”
“Ah know, but the master says you’ll be seeing other friends, trust my master she’s a good and kind master. We’ll see each other again, and ya’ll can come by anytime you want, and ah’ll teach you how to be a good farm dog.” With that Winona picked up Sly’s squeaky toy and held it up to the sad little fox getting him to timidly take it into his mouth, but could still hear him whimper as he was placed on Fluttershy’s back.
“Oh, I’m so sorry Sly but we really have to be going, I promise we’ll come back again and you and Winona can play some more.” Futtershy said, as she looked back as Sly who was at that time being comforted by Rainbow and Lightning.
“Yeah, besides we’re going to the funnest place in Ponyville.” Sly looked back and saw Winona at the door of the barn house. Then laid down as a tear rolled down his cheek. “Fwuttershy, we got to hurry we got a sad puppy back here that needs 20 cc of Pinkie Pie fun.” Rainbow said as she looked at the back of Fluttershy’s head and then felt her slightly speed up. “Wightning, we got to find away to cheer Sly up before we get to Pinkie, he’s fading fast.” Rainbow turned Sly over and then blew a raspberry on his tummy. “WAUGH don’t you dare cry on me.”
“I got the tickwer.” Lightning said, as she reached down and placed her hooves on Sly’s chest. “CWEAR!” As she started to tickle Sly. The little Fox squirmed and started to squeak his toy several times, all the while getting the two little fillies a good laugh, as they watched his tail swished back and forth. As they made their way to Sugar Cube Corner, Fluttershy smiled as she kept heard her two little ones cheering Sly up. “Alright girls we’re here.” As Fluttershy walked into Sugar Cube Corner she was greeted by Pinkie Pie who was her normal happy bouncing self.
“Hey Fluttershy, great to see you.”
“Nice to see you also Pinkie and as I promised I brought Sly over to visit.” in a flash Pinkie Pie looked at Fluttershy’s back and smiled as she saw a panting Sly still breathing hard.
“Well hello there.” Sly looked at Pinkie slightly confused then squeaked his toy once before trying to role to his feet only to fall from Fluttershy’s back into Pinkie Pie’s awaiting fore hoofs. “This is one twitchy tail, I’m not going to let happen.” Pinkie said, as she lifted Sly up getting him to smile as his tail wagged happily. “Oh he’s just so adorable Fluttershy.” As Pinkie Pie hugged Sly he nuzzled up to her and smiled as she looked down at him. “You’re going to love Gummy.”
“I don’t know Pinkie, are you sure it’s safe?”
“Oh don’t worry, Shy, Gummy is completely harmless and he loves to make new friends.” with that Pinkie walked up stairs to her room followed by Fluttershy. Where they the youths were put down on the floor and got to play around while Sly was introduced to Gummy, for a while Sly was content in just watching the little gator move around, it was when Gummy opened his mouth that Sly got a little more interested and moved in closer to get a good look on the inside of Gummy’s mouth, only to have Gummy snap shut on his muzzle, getting Sly to jump a little and then lift his head up with Gummy still attached to his face. He tried to shake him off several times as he walked around the room before Rainbow and the other foals crawled up and looked at the little fox.
“Well you’ve got gummed.” Rainbow said, as she looked at Sly who seemed confused on what was going on. “Don’t worry, it just means he likes you.” with that Rainbow reached under and tickled Gummy’s lower jaw getting him to open getting Sly free. “See all better, now play nice.” with that Sly looked down at Gummy then slowly backed away from the muzzle bitter and turned his attention to the two new foals, Pumpkin and pound cake.
“Oh he’s so fuzzy.” Pumpkin said, as she wrapped her arms around Sly.
“Hey come on Pumpkin, you’re going to hurt him.” Pound cake said, as he got his sister to let go. “Come on wet’s pway.” with that Pound Cake held up a bit of rope and held it out to Sly who looked at it for a second then latched onto it as Pound cake started to tickle his nose with it. “That’s it now come on, bet I can beat you in a tug of war.” as the two started tug on the rope the other fillies started to cheer them on. “Come on you can’t beat me.” Pound Cake said, as he kept pulled but then started to feel as he was slowly getting dragged.
“I got winner.” Rainbow yelled, as she watched the match go back and forth.
“Oh my, it looks like they finally found something they all can play.” Fluttershy said, as she pointed at the little tug of war going.
“AND SWY THE WINNER!” Lightning announced as Sly won the match.
“My turn.” As Rainbow took up the rope she smirked as she started to Fly up pulling Sly off the floor. “Now how are you going to win, Sly?”
“Rainbow Dash that’s cheating.” Fluttershy scolded as she looked at Rainbow.
“No it’s not, we never said we couldn’t use our wings.” Rainbow countered as she smiled at Fluttershy, then looked down at Sly who had started to swing back and forth until he was able to get his hind legs wrapped around the rope. “Not going to work, there is nothing you can do to get me to let go of this rope.” then it happened, first it started with a little graze of Sly’s tail to Rainbow’s tummy, then the gaze turned into a stroking, before it turned into a fully on tickle attack by Sly to Rainbow’s unprotected tummy, getting her to giggle then laugh as she slowly started to lose altitude until finally she was on the floor laughing as Sly kept tickling her.
“The winner is Sly.” Lightning announced once more getting everyone to laugh a little.
“Alright girls we should be going soon, Rarity wanted us to stop by so she could get Sly’s measurements for a set of clothes.”
“Pwease just one more.” the foals begged as they all looked at Fluttershy who smiled softly.
“Alright just one more.” with that Pumpkin crawled up and took the rope from Rainbow Dash and then smiled at Sly who.
“Weady?” with that Sly nodded and then felt as Pumpkin started to pull on the rope, while using some of her magic to try and give her an advantage, but was then surprised as she rolled backwards as Sly walked towards her and placed his end of the rope down then started to give her face a tong bath. “Ah, I surrender I surrender.” Pumpkin said, as she laughed under the attack. As she sat up she wrapped her arms around Sly’s neck and smiled. “You not onwy fuzzy your tickwy to.” Several minutes later Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie were walking down the street of Ponyville, Pinkie with the Cake twins on her back while the other three youths rode on Fluttershy’s back.
“Pinkie, are you sure you’re going to need that?” Fluttershy asked as she looked down at Pinkie’s party cannon.
“Oh course silly, I never go to a party with out it.”
“But Pinkie it’s just going to be a sleepover.”
“I know silly.” Once at Rarity’s place the small band of youths were set down on the floor where Onyx was happily playing with his teddy bear.
“Hey, Onyx what you doing?” Rainbow asked, as she walked up and looked at her friend.
“Just pwaying with my teddy bear.” Onyx said, as he hugged his teddy bear and then noticed Sly sniffing around Pinkie’s party cannon. “Is he going to be awright over there?” Onyx asked, as he looked at Rainbow.
“Oh sure he’ww be fine.” Rainbow replied as she looked over at Sly who had started to chew on the cannon’s string.
“Darling, I insist.” Rarity said, as she came walking back into the room with the foals and started to head for Sly. “The little darling is going to be here for a few more days and Princess Luna has requested that I try and make him a set of cloths for formal affairs.” Rarity said, as she walked up to Sly who was concentrating on chewing on the string of the party cannon then anything else. “Now then, let’s see if we can get his little measurements.” with that Rarity reached down for Sly who jumped at the last second and turned to face her with the string in his mouth getting Rarity and Fluttershy to flinch as they saw the string go taunt and realized that the cannon would go off. After a few seconds the two could hear Pinkie Pie laughing as she walked up and picked Sly up and tickled his tummy a little getting him to leg go of the string as he started to laugh.
“You two should see the looks on your faces, it’s priceless.”
“Pinkie Pie what if that cannon would have gone off, the poor little dear would have created such a mess.” Rarity scolded as she looked at her pink friend.
“Oh don’t be silly Rarity, he would have had to pull the string a lot harder, like this.”
“PINKIE NO!!” *BOOM!* Rarity and Fluttershy’s protest came a second to late as the party cannon fired and the room was filled with streamers and confetti.
“See he would have had to pull it a lot harder then those little tugs of his.” Rarity started to growl slightly at Pinkie Pie, while Fluttershy looked at Rarity with a bit of concern knowing that she might loose it a little against their friend. However, the crisis was averted as the sound of foals laughter filled the air getting the three adults to turn and looked at them, playing with the party streamers, and giving each other funny color manes with them. “That’s funny.”
“It’s adorable.” Rarity said as she walked up nuzzled Onyx, who was now sporting green streamer hair. “Well while you and Fluttershy will start to clean up this mess I’m going to take Sly into the fitting room and get his measurements.” This wasn’t nearly as easy and Rarity thought it was going to be, as she took Sly into the other room and started the little Fox ran out with the measuring tape still around his waist and ran up to the group of foals. “Sly darling, you have to remain still so I can get the rest of your measurements.” Rarity said, as she walked up and then noticed how much Sly was trembling. “Oh now Sly you don’t need to be scared I’m your friend.” Rarity said, as she levitated Sly up and hugged him slightly. “Would it make you fell more comfortable if your friends were around?” Sly looked at the others then nodded getting Rarity to smile as she levitated the little fox up. “Alright then as Rarity levitates her note pad into the other room she started to get Sly’s measurements again, as the rest of the group looked. Once she was finished, the first thing Sly did was run a little before pouncing on his squeaky toy.
“I know how you feew, Swy, I can’t stand sitting stiww for to wong either.”
“Maybe we should start heading for Twilight’s, it is getting rather late.”
“Good idea.” as Pinkie started to bounce away she was caught in mid-air and levitated back to the center of the room.
“Not so fast Pinkie, you’re going to clean up this mess you made.”
“But the party...”
“You can join the sleepover when you’re finished..” as Pinkie’s mane and tail started to deflate as the group started to head out the front door it swung open and DG walked in caring a saddle bag worth of groceries.
“Rarity, I’m back with what you asked for.” DG stopped for a moment as he looked down, saw the group of foals, and in the center was Sly with his faithful squeaky in his mouth, and as he bit down on the poor little toy and caused it to squeak DG could feel his heart start to pound harder and harder.
‘Oh great he’s going to do it, he’s going to have Sly attack me now in the story and cause me to blow my cover, what did I ever do to him?’ DG thought to himself as he watched as Sly looked at him a slightly confused look on his face before he walked up slowly to DG.
‘Oh no, Sly, don’t do it be a good boy, don’t bite DG, don’t blow his cover.’ Onyx mentally pleaded as he watched on with a great deal of concern. Sly started to sniff DG, then placed his toy down on the floor and started to walk around DG as if trying to measure him up and understand whom this new pony was. “Hewwo DG.” Onyx said, getting Sly’s attention. “Swy this is DG, he’s a friend.” Sly turned and looked at DG again took another step close, which got DG to take a hoof back.
‘Oh just great, you’re scared now he’s going to jump me for sure, Crystal Shard, I swear if I get ran out of town by and angry mob with pitch forks and torches, I’m going to get you back for this.’ DG mentally swore as he braced for the worst, and that’s when it happen Sly sprung into action.
