//------------------------------// // Fallen in the Underground // Story: Flowey's Best Friend // by Agent Fluffy //------------------------------// I was walking in the Everfree forest admiring the trees that had flowers blooming and a brisk breeze flowed through my mane. After a mile of walking I found an unusually gigantic hole in the ground. It was big enough to swallow a gigantic dragon. It was a deep dark hole too. “Hmm, I wonder what was down that hole?” I thought to myself in curiosity. At first, I was scared and unsure to go down it. I don’t know what is down there though. My teeth clenched and beads of sweat were dripping down my face in fear. I wiped the sweat off of my face and mustered up the courage to look inside. “Hello? Is anypony there?” I yelled into the hole. I hesitantly took a step forward and fell through the hole with the ground collapsing. “Oh sweet Celestia! I hope that doesn't hurt!” I screamed. Thank Celestia I landed without a scratch. It was dark underground except for a little sunlight where I fell through. I landed on a pretty patch of golden flowers that glistened in the sunlight. I was scared but something compelled me to move through the darkness. I moved along in the darkness. I couldn’t see where I was going. It was terrifying. As I trotted through the darkness having no clue where I was, I see another patch of light and what looks like a single golden flower with a face bouncing up and down with its stem. I walked up to it with curiosity and I heard a voice coming from nowhere. “Howdy!” It said. I jumped and squealed at the top of my lungs wondering where the voice came from. The voice was high pitched. “Ahem!” The flower cleared its throat. I looked around, I wasn’t sure where the sound was. I looked at the flower and asked with curiosity, “Was that you who spoke to me?" “Yep!” The flower replied. I was shocked to find a flower talking. I didn’t know this place had talking flowers. I was curious to learn more about the flower. I asked it a question sheepishly, “What is your name, if you don’t mind me asking?” “My name’s Flowey, Flowey the flower!” It replied. “What a cute name!” I told Flowey. Its petals became slightly red which I assumed was embarrassment. “Daww! Golly, that’s the nicest thing anyone said to me.” “Are you a boy or a girl?” I asked it. “I’m a boy.” Flowey replied, “By the way, what is your name?” “I’m Fluttershy.” I replied. Flowey smiled a grin as he bounced on his stem. “Golly, what a beautiful name for a pony such as yourself.” He complimented. I was shocked that he knew I was a pony. I blushed with rose red cheeks after he complimented me. I looked at him with a cute yet caring face. “You are the cutest flower I have ever seen. I can’t resist your cuteness.” I blurted out. “Aww! No one ever called me cute before until now. Golly, we have just met and now you are showering me with compliments and flirting with me,” Flowey said turning slightly redder., “So what brought you to the Underground?” He asked. “Well, I found a gigantic hole in the ground in the Everfree forest and I guess I fell in.” I replied. “Everfree Forest huh? Well, I have never been there.” Flowey said with friendliness, “I was just wondering, will you be my best friend and take me to the Everfree forest?” He asked me. “Of course. I’ll take you to the Everfree forest and take you to my place.” I replied with kindness. “Thanks Fluttershy, I’m so tired of being stuck in the Underground for so long. Golly Fluttershy, you are the nicest and cutest pony I’ve ever met.” Flowey said. “Thank you Flowey. That is very kind of you,” I replied with a blush.”What can I keep you in?” I asked. “You can put me in a flower pot so I can thrive there is always one around. I really want to get to know you better Fluttershy.” He replied. Suddenly, I noticed that a flower pot had appeared nearby. It was too far for Flowey to reach. So, I approached the flower pot and moved it towards Flowey. “Don’t worry Flowey. I’ll take good care of you.” I assured Flowey. “Golly, thanks Fluttershy.” His petals turned a brighter red. I flew him up from the Underground and arrived at the Everfree Forest making sure to land on a patch of ground that looks safe and secure.
