Princess Flurry Heart

Princess Flurry Heart (Suggested by Rubiowolf)

I have had a previous encounter with my next patient before, not as a patient but as an annoying child that caused a lot of damage when her mama couldn't afford her appointment. Yes Flurry Heart is adorable, but that doesn't mean she's not a demon child that likes to destroy things. Besides causing damage to my practice, she did destroy the crystal heart as well. Here is how her appointment played out.

Now the very beginning of this would piss me off. It was a Saturday when Shining Armor, Cadence and Flurry Heart came down to see Twilight. Apparently that morning Flurry crashed into a wall and knocked a tooth out, well that is what Cadence told me when she brought her to my house! Yes, she had the audacity to come and bother me at my house. She begged and pleaded with me for about an hour before I finally caved in since time was running short on Flurry's tooth.

They followed me over to my practice but I did have a couple of conditions that had to be met for me to see her. The first one is that a horn cap would have to be placed on Flurry and she would have to be strapped into the chair given what happened the last time she was here. Yes Cadence protested at first but as time was ticking, she finally agreed. While I wanted to hurry up and demand money, I had to get this royal pain's tooth back in so I took her back.

Regarding Flurry, she was actually very well behaved and I had no issues getting her tooth back in. I was worried she would bite me but luckily that did not happen. If that would have happened, I would have sued Cadence. But things would start going downhill as soon as I unstrapped Flurry. She started flying around giggling, knocking things over and she damaged a light fixture. Cadence saw this and was not happy with her daughter. She wasn't the only one! When Cadence finally got her daughter subdued and saw me coming out with a glare on my face, she knew that things would not go well.

Naturally she didn't have any money on her so the three of us headed over to Twilight's castle. Get this, on the way there Flurry Heart was riding on my back and wrapped her hooves around my neck. Ok, I'll admit, maybe she isn't bad after all, she does seem to like me. Once we got to the castle they knew what it was about. Unfortunately for Shining Armor, he had no money on him either and all Twilight has in her castle are books but I was not about to let them get away without compensation.

Since it was still somewhat early in the day I along with the royal family headed up to the Crystal Empire. I decided I wanted something special, I wanted a relic of theirs as payment. I'll admit, my very first thought was demanding the crystal heart for payment but the absence of it would cause that place to freeze over so forget that. I'm sure I'll see something else that I'll want, hopefully be able to sell it and make a killing.

Once we got there they led me into the treasury since they know I like pretty, shiny things that are worth a lot of money. I saw this crystal snowflake and decided that I wanted it. They were really upset that I demanded it because it was a relic that dated back to the very first crystal queen. I would not be denied though. I reminded Cadence of the customer/doctor agreement and put emphasis on the light fixture that Flurry Heart broke. After an hour of protest from them, they finally gave in and I got my pretty relic.

As I headed home I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. I absolutely love being able to get another princess, despite her having been royalty longer than me, to have to pay up. Once I got into my house the phone starting ringing. When I saw the number on the caller ID I immediately answered the phone. Apparently Dr. Caballeron is wanting to buy something to sell to Ahuizotl. Sweet! It looks like I'll be in another Daring Do book!

Apparently Ahuizotl is looking for a crystal snowflake so he can not only try to freeze over a small area of Equestria, but the whole country! It's all good because I know in the end that Daring Do will make sure that doesn't happen. There is one great thing that happened, something that even I would have never imagined!

The good thing is that Ahuizotl paid me 20,000 bits for that thing. What made it better was that I was able to join Ahuizotl at his ceremony where he began to freeze over the nation and of course was there when Daring Do secured the crystal snowflake and saved Equestria from an eternal winter. Now on to the best part. I never really knew what Daring Do did with all these relics she goes and recovers. Apparently she has some sort of hideout where she keeps them because she told me that she didn't have any room in "her secret place" for the crystal snowflake. What she did was give it back to me for safe keeping. Wow! I'm 100% stoked now! I got paid 20,000 bits for that relic and I get to keep it!

Her only stipulation was that I do not let anypony know I have it. Fair enough, hey I have to hide that golden yak statue so I'll lock this in the same safe with it. I'm thinking I may have to invest in a vault if this is going to keep up. I am betting that in the future the royal family up in the Crystal Empire will remember to bring cash with them when they come to see me. I secretly hope they don't though because there is a silver Alicorn statue up in their treasury that I want so badly!
