Love Could Be Where You Least Expect It (Fluttershy/Rainbow Dash version)

Surprises All Around



An hour later after Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash became marefriends, a rainbow colored blur shot across the sky. It was obviously Rainbow Dash, but she was moving a lot more swifter than normal and even she noticed it. She felt like she could Sonic Rainboom in an instant.

'I never thought I would be with Fluttershy. I'm guessing I need to expect the unexpected. The others aren't going to believe it!' Rainbow thought, with an excited expression on her face.

Fluttershy was actually thinking the exact same thing back at her cottage.

'I didn't think Rainbow and I would ever be together, but this completely changed my opinion. I don't think any of our friends will believe this,' Fluttershy thought, slightly blushing.

Speaking of their friends, they were planning on telling them at a party that Pinkie Pie had invited them to a few hours ago. They both had decided this when they had became marefriends.

*****An hour earlier*****

Fluttershy and Rainbow were sitting in the living room of Fluttershy's cottage.

"So, how are we going to tell the others?" Rainbow asked, tapping her hoof on the table while trying to think.

"I don't know, but there has to be someway to gather everypony to tell them," Fluttershy answered with a sigh.

"It's not like we can have a meeting or a party and tell them there," Rainbow said, putting her head down on the table.

"A par- Rainbow Dash! That's it!" Fluttershy exclaimed with a beaming smile.

"Wha- what's it?!" Rainbow Dash asked, nearly jumping out of her seat from Fluttershy's outburst.

"The party! Didn't Pinkie invite us to a party?" Fluttershy answered.

"Oh yeah. The whole gang is going to be there! Fluttershy, that's perfect!" Rainbow agreed in excitement.

Fluttershy blushed a deep red, which made Rainbow chuckle. She went over and placed a kiss on her marefriend's cheek. After Rainbow kissed her, Fluttershy giggled at herself for being so bashful and then kissed Rainbow on her cheek.

*****Normal Time*****

Rainbow Dash had already gotten home in half the time it usually takes her to fly home from Fluttershy's cottage. When she landed, images from her dream flashed more clearly through her head. She gave a light smirk, knowing that these things in her head might happen after all and she didn't mind if it did happen. In fact, she was looking foward to having a relationship with Fluttershy. It her it was like a new adventure in her life, except she wasn't leaving Ponyville. The only thing that troubled her was the sight of a familiar figure that see never wanted to see again, but she thought she was seeing things. The party was going to start in an hour which gave her plenty of time to think about how to explain how Fluttershy and her got together.

Meanwhile, back at Fluttershy's cottage, Fluttershy was helping nurse a small mouse back to health, when she heard somepony clear their throat. She turned around, but saw nothing until she looked down at a small white bunny looking at her with his arms crossed. It was Fluttershy's pet bunny, Angel Bunny, tapping his foot like he was waiting for something.

"Oh, Angel Bunny. Do you need something?" Fluttershy asked her pet.

She then heard Angel Bunny's stomach growl.

"Oh, I almost forgot to feed you. Luckily, I've had a carrot waiting for you in the oven," Fluttershy said, walking to the kitchen to get the warm carrot for Angel Bunny.

Angel Bunny was a little surprised that his owner was thinking ahead. His own frown started to soften at this, but when he heard her walking back, he regained his normal composure.

"Here you go Angel," Fluttershy said, placing the plate with the carrot in front of Angel Bunny.

Fluttershy knew the party was going to start in 10 minutes, so she went outside of her cottage, only to be greeted by Rainbow Dash a few seconds later.

"Hey Fluttershy," Rainbow greeted, landing right by Fluttershy.

"Hi Rainbow Dash," Fluttershy greeted back.

Rainbow was about to ask if Fluttershy was ready to go to Pinkie's party, when Fluttershy nuzzled her wing. Rainbow started to giggle and get a faint blush. Fluttershy didn't know that Rainbow's wing was very ticklish when something soft, like fur, brushes across it.

"Fl-fl-fluttershy," Rainbow stuggled to say, trying to hold her laughter in.

"Hmm... Oh! Sorry Rainbow Dash!" Fluttershy quickly apologized, blushing a deep red.

"It's no problem. So, are you ready to go?" Rainbow responded with the faint blush still visible on her face.

Fluttershy nodded. Both Rainbow and Fluttershy turned in the direction of Sugarcube Corner, to see two familiar ponies. Both ponies were very well known throughout Equestria, mainly for their music. It was the most well known DJ in all Equestria, Vinyl Scratch (or better well known as DJ Pon-3), and the most known Cellist in all Equestria, Octavia.

Vinyl was a marshmellow white unicorn that has a electric blue mane and tail with light blue streaks. She also has magenta eyes, but not that many ponies have seen them because she wears her purple shades most of the time. Her cutie mark is a pair of black eighth notes.

Octavia was a brown earth pony with a charcoal black mane and tail. She also wears a bowtie and she has lavender eyes. Her cutie mark is a lavender treble cleft.

"DJ? Octavia? What are you two doing here?" Rainbow asked, walking up to the two mares.

"Um... Well... We came here to go visit my sister, Pinkie. I heard she is having a party where we can make some life changing confessions and there is one confession I have to make," Octavia explained.

"Really? Because I have to make one, too," Rainbow said.

"How about we go to the party together, since all of us are headin' that way?" Vinyl asked, stepping forward a few steps.

They all agreed and headed to Sugarcube Corner. On the way, they met up with Rarity and Applejack just a couple of blocks down. They were all in for a big surprise once everyone arrived at Pinkie's.

***30 minutes later***

The door to Sugarcube Corner opened to reveal two unicorns. A loud gasp was heard from Rarity, Pinkie, Applejack, Rainbow, and Fluttershy. The last two guests were Twilight Sparkle and somepony they never expected to see again. It was The Great and Powerful Trixie.

"What in the hay are you doin' here?" Applejack asked, looking at the unicorn with a cold glare.

"We thought we had ran you outta town! Do we have to run you out again?!" Rainbow asked angrilly, looking like she was going to kick Trixie all the way out of town herself.

Then, the unexpected happened. Twilight jumped right in front of Trixie, defending her. This made both Applejack and Rainbow Dash back down.

"Twilight, why are you defendin' her after the terrible things she has done to us?" a confused Applejack asked, looking at her friend.

"She has changed. I found her wounded and unconscious on my doorstep. What did you expect me to do?! Leave her out there to die in the cold?! I can't and won't turn my back on somepony that needs my help, especially if they are on the brink of death!" Twilight explained in an angry, yet calm tone.

Hearing this, everypony looked Twilight and Trixie in guilt. They never knew Trixie was hurt and she was out cold, wounded on Twilight's doorstep.

"Twilight, I think that's enough. I need to say something to them myself," Trixie said, walking forward.

She looked towards the five members of the mane six that were looking at her.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything I've done to humiliate you all! I just wanted to be known as somepony, but I didn't mean to hurt anypony! I hope you can forgive me!" Trixie cried, apologizing as well as she could between gasps in her breath.

They all looked at the light blue unicorn that was crying her eyes out. They all felt guilt, but her apology made smile on the inside, knowing that it was the truth and not a lie.

"We forgive you," Fluttershy said with a smile.

"We can all see you've changed just from how you're acting," Rarity explained with a light expression on her face.

Trixie looked up at the other ponies and saw their smiles.

"Thank you all," Trixie said, smiling with tears still streaming down her face.

"Now with all of that out of the way. LET'S PARTY!!!!" Pinkie yelled, getting party poppers out of nowhere.

"Hang on a second, I thought we were supposed to tell a few confessions first," Octavia said, just walking in the door.

"Octavia!" Pinkie yelled, galloping over to her older sister.

"Nice to see you too, Pinkie," Octavia greeted, giving her younger sister a hug.

"What are you doing here? I thought you had to go to Phillydelphia for a concert," Pinkie asked.

"Well, I had a few weeks before I go and preform, so I decided to drop by... with a friend," Octavia explained.

They were going to ask who her friend was, but just before they asked, she walked in.

"Tav, do you mean me?" Vinyl asked with a smirk.

"DJ?!" Twilight, Trixie, and Pinkie yelled in surprise.

They never expected DJ Pon-3 to be here. She was usually running the music for a club in a city, not that far from Phillydelphia.

"Now, I really need to ask what are you doing here?!" a confused Pinkie exclaimed.

"Well, since the club needs to be repaired, thanks to some drunk colt, I thought I should go with Octavia. I had nothing else to do," Vinyl explained, adjusting her sunglasses which were slightly slanted.

"Okay... But who's going to go first?" Pinkie Pie asked, putting her hoof on her chin.

"Pinkie, how about us," said a slightly chilling, but familiar voice from around a wall corner.

Pinkie walked over and whispered to her.

"Are you sure?" Pinkie quietly asked.

"Yes Pinkie, I am," the voice answered quietly back.

Pinkie gave a slight nod and stepped over to the left, away from the corner. A pink earth pony walked out from behind the wall. She looked almost exactly like Pinkie. The only differences was that her fur, mane, and tail was a darker shade of pink and her mane and tail was just straight, like when Pinkie turn into Pinkineama.

"Pinkie Pie, who is this and why does she look like we met her before?" Rainbow asked, looking at both of them, surprised.

"You guys have met her before! You honestly don't remem-" Pinkie was explained before she was interrupted.

"Pinkie let me explain it. I'm Pinkinema Diane Pie," the other Pinkie greeted.

Everypony in the room was confused. They though Pinkie was Pinkinema Diane Pie. How could she be her?


Sorry to leave you guys with a cliffhanger, but this chapter has been long overdue. I'm sorry for the long wait and I will try to get these chapters up here faster. Peace out! Haters Gonna Hate, Gotta Love And Tolerate!
