> Fluttershy Loiters > by Flighter > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Sleep > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aah, it was a nice, warm spring day, there were a couple clouds in the sky, and the sound of birds chirping awoke Fluttershy, she always kept her window cracked when she slept, because any cute critters might want to come in, even bears could manage. Fluttershy sat up in bed, she looked at the mirror on the opposite side of her bedroom, she had gotten bedhead. Fluttershy slipped out of bed and went across the room to her mirror, and picked up her comb. The comb was a light pink with sparkles on it, she thought it was really pretty. She combed her hair pretty well, making it look normal again. Fluttershy never told her friends that she got bedhead almost every night, but she didn't know why. It wasn't bad or anything. Fluttershy walked into the bathroom, she decided to take a nice, warm bubble bath. She might get some more sleep that way. Fluttershy turned on the water, after waiting a couple of minutes she felt the water. The water was freezing! Fluttershy made the water a bit warm, this time, she only waited a couple of seconds before testing the water, it was still a bit to cold. Fluttershy continued doing this a couple of times until the water was just warm enough. Fluttershy hopped in. Fluttershy turned on the bubbles, the bath became instantly relaxing, but before Fluttershy drifted off, she had to clean herself. She cleaned all over her body, yes, she cleaned her privates, she needed to get clean. Fluttershy washed her hair well, and combed it afterwards. Fluttershy finished washing, the bath was so relaxing. Fluttershy lay down in the tub, (It was a big tub.) and drifted off. Fluttershy awoke to the sound of a knocking by the door to the bathroom. What time was it? Could she have drifted off this long? Fluttershy thought it was well past breakfast time. Fluttershy hopped out of the tub, drained all the water and dried herself with a towel that had a picture of nature on it. Fluttershy hurried out the door. Angel Bunny was thumping his paw against the floor, and pointing to the clock. It read 11:21 A.M! Breakfast time was at 8:30 A.M! Fluttershy hurriedly walked down the stairs, and walked through the hall to her kitchen. Fluttershy's kitchen looked dusty and lived in, but the dusty part wasn't her fault, she cleaned her kitchen every couple of days. The counters had marks on them, and when you looked at it, you might think that an animal would be living in it, which was true. Fluttershy quickly chopped up all the carrots, lettuce, spinach and other greens, and made a couple of salads for some of her animals. Fluttershy gathered acorns for the squirrels and other yummy foods for the other animals. Every one of her pets loved her food, well, that was except for Angel Bunny. Angel was a very, very picky eater. Fluttershy decided to take a nice walk in the woods nearby. She packed her bag with water and bag of potato chips, and then she began to walk into the woods. The woods were beautiful, flowers blooming, the sun rays streaking through the treetops. It was wonderful. The sounds of birds chirping and winds whistling echoed through the woods, the forest was still; beautifully still, nothing scary. Fluttershy decided to have a nice snack under the shade of a tree. She ate her potato chips, and then drifted off. Fluttershy didn't notice the sign nailed to the tree that read : NO LOITERING! > Questions > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Yes, hello, police stallion Jo Spinner here, what can I do for ya?" Jo answered the ringing cell phone. There was a fire in a building, and he was needed there. "Hello, I found a mare in the middle of the woods under a 'No Loitering!' sign, but the thing is, she was loitering!" "Yup, aha, be right there." Jo ran to one of the police cars, unlocked it, opened the door and hopped in. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The fire was traveling, firemen spraying it with fire extinguishers, police stallions and mares rescuing ponies from the burning building. The place was really, really loud. Finally the fire was put out, now there was Jo's other case. Jo told his boss that he had received a telephone call and needed to arrest someone, his boss nodded and gave him a light shove. Jo hurried out the door, handcuffs in his bag. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roseluck hung up. The police were probably rushing to see Fluttershy right now, she waited, and waited, and waited some more. After almost dosing off herself, police officer Jo Spinner came. "Hello, Jo, I think you may take it from here." Roseluck walked off. Jo handcuffed Fluttershy and shook her awake. "What? Why am I handcuffed?" Fluttershy asked "Look up, at the tree you were sleepin' under." Jo answered. "Oh dear, I didn't see that there!" "Good, you've answered our first question for you." "Okay, you can take me, but after I answer your questions, am I free to go?" "That depends." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fluttershy was told to sit down in the chair across from Jo. Jo told her they had a test for her, providing them with information and it also determined if she was going to be able to leave the prison or not. "Did you know the sign was there?" "No." "Did anypony put you there besides yourself?" "No." "Are you guilty of this crime?" Fluttershy had to think about this one a bit, and then she said, "Half-way." "How so?" "I did commit it but I did not see the sign." "Aah." Jo breathed calmly "Thank you for your answers." "You are free to go." > Free > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fluttershy exited the police station, breathing in the warm spring air. The essences of spring greeted her as she walked home to her cottage. She thought she would keep this one to herself. When Fluttershy got home, she tucked her pets into bed and made herself a cup of coffee. Fluttershy lay down on the couch and clicked on the remote, turning on the T.V. Fluttershy searched the channels until she found a show she liked, it was called 'The Flash', it was one of her favorite shows. An ordinary pony, Quick Flick could run faster than any other pony alive, well, except for one. Fluttershy sipped her coffee and watched the show until she fell asleep. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fluttershy opened her eyes, the T.V was playing a random show and the sound of the newspaper thumping in her yard, and then the sound of the mail colt riding his bicycle back to Ponyville. Fluttershy walked out to her lawn, and picked up the paper, the headline of one of the articles on the front page read : A Loiterer Found Under A 'No Loitering!" Sign
