//------------------------------// // Chapter 2: Fluttershy's Fun // Story: It's a small world // by Memekip //------------------------------// "Oh, they're through there?" Fluttershy says softly, gently flying over to the portal; a bit excited to meet some new tiny critters. On the way to the castle, twilight had explained just how small and fragile the little creatures she saw appeared to be. "Yes! But they seem pretty smart! They have tiny buildings an everything!" Twilight says excitedly, thrilled to be making first contact with an entirely new species. "Go on ahead fluttershy! I'll be waiting here for you!" Twilight says reassuringly, gently nudging fluttershy with her hoof. Smiling, flutters flies through the mirror, beating her wings softly as to not stir up too much of a breeze "What is that?!?" A random New Yorker says, as the shadow of a huge yellow pegasus overshadows a good chunk of metropolis. Fluttershy giggles a bit as people start to panic, hearing all their tiny squeaky little voices. "Oh, there's no need to be afraid little ones, I'm not going to hurt you~" She says warmly, softly landing in central park. Her huge body barely fits in one of the fields there as she lands. Her huge voice reverberates through all the buildings, echoing and filling everyone's ears with her tone. Everyone within a few blocks of her immediately begin to catch her scent as well; the most recent mane shampoo she used causing everyone to breathe in the thick and pleasant scent of strawberries. "Come out everyone! There's nothing to be afraid of~" She says patiently, smiling as some brave people come slowly out of the bushes and cautiously walk up to her. "There! That wasn't so bad! Now was it~" She says happily, reaching over with one of her big feathery wings, and playfully tickling a woman's chest. She immediately rolls over in a fit of laughter, much to flutteshy's delight. Fluttershy then carefully rests her face near the ground, positioning herself so that one of her ears is above a small group of a dozen or so people. "Umm, what is this place?" She asks in a whisper, not wanting to hurt their ears". She can't help but smile as she hears their squeaky response "This is earth! A-are you an alien or something? What do you want with us?" A brave boy asks, still a bit afraid of her intimidating form. "Oh, I don't want anything at all from you little critters! A-and I suppose I am an alien, if this is a different world..." She whispers, raising her head up and observing the tiny environment. She first notices the little clouds, blowing softly, and giggling a bit as she completely blows one of them away like it's nothing. "I-I promise I won't hurt any of you, but I'm sure my friend twilight would love to see some of you! Would a few of you come with me please~" Fluttershy says, doing her irresistibly cute stare. Not wanting to upset the huge pegasus, and unable to resist her cuteness, a few people obediently climb onto her mane, causing her to smile happily. "Oh thank you so much little ones! I'll be sure to get you some treats later~" Fluttershy says, unable to help seeing them as tiny little critters. "Hold on everyone!" She says to the people in her mane. She then softly beats her wings, blowing over the trees nearest to her, and knocking bystanders onto their butts as she gently lifts off. She then casually flies around the New York area, admiring the tiny city, forests, and mountains, before fluttering through the portal once more; leaving everyone in New York less scared, and more confused than ever
