Hello My Dear Darling

Walking around the Everfree forest she heard some rustling, she decided to ignore it. She smelt smoke and knew something bad had happened, she followed the sent until she saw the box, the dark blue box that was lying on its side covered in smoke. Instantly fear arose in her mind, she trotted around looking for some form of life, she started to call his name but her only reply was the wind. She sat down in defeat, what if he had died? What would she do without him?

Soon her thoughts were interrupted by the rustling noise again; she decided to go investigate the noise. She went over to the bushes and saw a purple tail wagging in the wind; she uncovered the bush to see a baby manticore. A bay was the least of her worries, but an adult would be so much worse. Seeing the baby brought back memories of The Doctor helping her around with Dinky was just born, she missed him too much, where was he? Why did he have to leave again?

Snapping out of her thoughts she saw the red eyes, the babies didn't have red eyes this young anyway. It was an adult, Derpy backed up slowly not to disturb it, maybe if she make a sound it won't notice her. She felt a hoof touch her shoulder, she looked behind to see a beaten up doctor and a worried look on his face.

"Run" He said as he pulled her close and started to take off.

"You’re okay! I'm so glad you’re safe but why are we running?!" She asked him as the red eyes seemed to glow brighter at her, as if staring right into her soul.

"That's not a manticore! It's something much worse and we need to get away before it sees anymore!" He said calmly as he reached a clearing in the forest. They say down to catch their breath.

"I'm so glad you’re okay..." Derpy said as she nuzzled close to him, she feared the worst for him but thank Celestia she was wrong. They sat there together watching the stars for which seemed like hours. Derpy couldn't be happier, she has lost too many important ponies in her life, and she wasn't going to lose another.

"You were worried about me huh? I'm glad at least someone was..." He said quietly, she was starting to fall asleep with her head on his shoulder, "Maybe it was a good thing I came back" He whispered as he planted a small kiss on her forehead. She got up and they headed back to her house, what they didn't realize that Dinky had followed them the entire time; it was perfect for her essay.

"Everypony give a round of applause for Dinky and her paper! That's the best writing I have seen all year my little pony!"

"Everypony give a round of applause for Dinky and her paper! That's the best writing I have seen all year my little pony!" Cherilee smiled at Dinky as she marked a big A+ on the essay, Dinky knew it was a good idea to follow her mom that night, because she got to see her mom happy again and it was perfect for the essay.

The lesson is that you will find love one way or another, you have a soul mate out there, you just haven't met them yet. They have loved you deep down for a thousand years, and they will love you for a thousand more. smiled at Dinky as she marked a big A+ on the essay, Dinky knew it was a good idea to follow her mom that night, because she got to see her mom happy again and it was perfect for the essay.

I think i got to...call my dad.

Wow, what an ending. This was a good story! Although, was the repeated part the essay?

This was soooo cute!

There were a couple portions that I couldn't help but notice were surreptitiously copy-pasted :unsuresweetie:. Was that accidental or an attempt to make the chapter longer than 1000 words :trollestia:?
