//------------------------------// // Coming Home Completely Accepted // Story: Dragons and Aliens // by Hazel_Hester777 //------------------------------// Spike drew a picture a Bunny sorrowfully. “I didn’t even get to thank her” Twilight wiped her tears, nodding. “She was one unique alien” Fluttershy was falling apart. “I was the first one who found her. I saved her once, I should’ve saved her then” she had a hard time speaking between her sobs. Rarity cried in her handkerchief as Pinkie hid her mourning in a pillow. Applejack was lying down with Rainbow in front of her. She was mourning, but Rainbow was thinking. Suddenly, her eyes went wide. “What did she mean by that?” Applejack was confused. “What do ya’ll mean?” “Before she fell off the waterfall, she said ‘I’ll see you guys later” Applejack was now intrigued. “What did she mean by that?” Quite a perfect question. ________________________________________ Back at the waterfall… Underneath the waters that fell off a cliff, you’d expect to find two dead bodies nearly at the bottom. Technically speaking, one was a real body whilst the other was not dead. Bunny opened her eyes, looking around; all she saw was a dead creature and water. She chewed her way through the vine on her neck and it broke. She swam to the surface, playing as though she was a little child who faked her own death. She just swam to dry and land and shook the water off her body like a dog would. That done, she ran into the path that would lead her back home. ________________________________________ Everypony was trying their best to keep it together. Some like Fluttershy just broke apart, others like Pinkie tried to hide it, Rainbow and Applejack were still trying to understand what she meant. What they failed to see was the very friend who was thought to have sacrificed her life to save another was now just waiting outside. Fluttershy cried out her eyes, until she turned her head and saw her. Twilight noticed, “What’s wrong?” The Pegasus just ran out the door. “Bunny!” she hugged her friend. “You’re alive!” “Why wouldn’t I be? I told you before, I can’t die anymore” Bunny smiled. Spike couldn't believe his ears, but when he saw her, he ran up to greet her. Tears of joy streamed down his face as he hugged the little alien. "You came back for us" Bunny hugged back. "Nopony gets left behind, Spikey" The others watched from the sidelines, now the group was complete. For Twilight and Fluttershy, this friendship worked perfectly. And for Spike and Bunny, it was a friendship that goes beyond differences.
