Fluttershy was sitting on a drape with her good friend Applejack. After some time, the warmth and the silence caught her and she began to take a nap. As for 'Shy, she was staring at the sky in which her best friend was zooming in every directions for clearing the blue from the white.
Earlier today, the three of them had decided to have to a picnic in a clearing not far from Ponyville that Applejack found in her last one and that she wanted to share the beauty of the surrounding. The weather was perfect except some clouds that Rainbow promised would clear once they were installed. Everything ready, they left with a basket full of fruits, vegetables and some sweets that they bought from Sugarcube corner. Knowing that Pinkie Pie would love to come, they invited her. But sadly for poor Pinkie, she was too busy to come with them today. Baking and baby-sitting in the same day that she promised, she told them. She promised them to invite them the next day and that she would bring a ton of pastries other sweets and delicacies. The three friends said her goodbyes, then left with their hearts slightly sad. Mostly Fluttershy who knew how much Pinkie would have loved to come.
Once on the site and satisfied of the emplacement, AJ put a drape on the ground she brought from her house. Fluttershy who brought the basket in her mouth put it at a corner. For Rainbow, she told they she would respect her word and get rid of the nasty clouds in the sky. She flew away in the big blue and began swiftly and without stopping a moment. Both the farmer pony and the animal care taker sat down on the drape and observe the blue and rainbow dot in the sky kicking, bucky and flying through the fluffy stuff. For a time, both observed her and kept following the weather specialist doing her job until couldn't take it anymore for her sore neck and the sleepiness taking her. She made a lot of chores in the morning for freeing her afternoon. Only the yellow and pink pegasus kept watching.
It somehow made her sad that Dash was destroying them. They were numerous and in so many different shapes and sizes that Fluttershy could find a different animal in nearly everyone of them. But there was one in particular that she found to be look like her beloved pet Angel Bunny. She had to rub her eyes with a hoof to be sure she was looking well. It really looked like him.... but something entirely different: he had wings. He was looking as his name implied. The joy of the sight warmed her heart... until she realized the sad truth: it would be the victim of the Dash pony.
One after one, Rainbow bashed every fluffy animals the yellow coated pegasus looked at. But only one brought her worries at its fullest. The Angel Bunny cloud. Shy was following the blue pegasus with her gaze and each time she flew close of the cute cloud, she hold her breath. Once, she flew very close before taking a turn for another cloud. The stress was becoming unbearable for her. She began to sweat and biting her hooves, with her eyes on the bunny cloud. After what seemed ten minutes, but was in fact only five, the sky was cleared. Except one. The one. Rainbow attacked it twice her usual speed with a grin in her face. Fluttershy couldn't take it and screamed:
"RAINBOW!!!! STOP!!!!"
Her cry startled Applejack who awoke, but a bit confused. Same for Rainbow who stopped a couple hooves from her target, a puzzled look in her face.
"WHAT'S WRONG FLUTTERSHY?" she shouted.
"DO... DO YOU REALLY HAVE TO GET RID OF ALL OF THEM?" she replied.
"WELL... YEAH? WHY?", Rainbow asked.
"CAN..... CAN YOU.... MAKE AN EXCEPTION WITH THIS ONE? PLEASE? PRETTY PLEASE?" she replied again. Applejack was also puzzled why her friend wanted this cloud to be untouched. Until she raised her eyes to the said cloud and understood why. It looked like her pet bunny and she got attached to it.
"WHAT'S SO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS ONE?", Rainbow asked while flying closer to her two friends.
"THE CLOUD..." Applejack began but since Rainbow was much closer, she began to talk quieter. "The cloud reminds Fluttershy of someone, Rainbow. Just look at it from here."
"Huh?" Rainbow turned her head to take a look at this said precious cloud. She only thought about it as mockery of her near perfect work. It needed a moment, but Dash got it. "Oh! It looks like your pet bunny Angel. So... that's why you didn't want me to...."
"Y.... yes." Fluttershy let her head drop and looked at the ground while staying silent for a moment.
"Ha! Don't worry about that Fluttershy. That's okay." Fluttershy raised her head, then looked at her friend with a little smile.
"T-thank you Rainbow Dash...." the shy pegasus simply said.
"No problem. Good thing you shouted, thought, because I was very close to try my new technique on it...." Rainbow replied. "But something doesn't look right about it...."
"An' what exactly?" Applejack asked.
"Now way "Angel" would become an angel. Uh... I mean.... not a "real" angel, but...." Rainbow responded.
"Ah got the idea." Applejack said before letting her finish her sentence. Fluttershy simply smiled.
"Well, let's eat!" Rainbow shouted.
For the rest of the picnic, the three chatted to each other, between bites of apples, salads and slices of cake and pie. They talked about their past, their experiences, worries and future. And how beautiful the day was. AJ asked for some help on the farm, Fluttershy for attending her animals and Rainbow.... for watching her new air tricks. Only the other pegasus didn't mind. And the angel bunny cloud was still floating in the sky. Until Fluttershy realized that she should have brought Angel by her side for the outside meal.
"D-do you think he will be very upset?" asked Fluttershy. Something pushed Rainbow to take a glance at the bunny cloud. It's wings disappeared.... and strangely became horns over its head.
"Uh.... I think... I'll take this sign as a yes....." simply replied Rainbow.
I hope you enjoyed this little story. Wonderful artworks have this effect on me.
