Fluttershy gaped at AppleJack. "AppleJack,we need to help them", Fluttershy told her. She looked at the turtles. She was especially worried about the red one. He wasn't doing too well,from the looks of it. "Sorry, Sugarcube. I just really don't know how we're gonna help. We aren't like them",AppleJack said to her. Fluttershy looked down. "We could at least try",she whispered. AppleJack walked away. She was alone to find out how to help her new friends. She had thought. "What can we do to help?", someone asked. Fluttershy looked to her side. Twilight and Pinkie stood there. They were both smiling. "Oh thank you!",Fluttershy whispered screamed. "Hey no problem. I am as fascinated as you are",Twilight said. "You aren't going to experiment on us,right?",her new friend Donatello said. "Experiment? Why would we do that? You have as many rights as we do",Twilight explained. Fluttershy heard a sigh of relief. She turned around and looked at them. "What can we do to help your brother?", Fluttershy asked. She really wanted to help. "First of all,we need to clean off all the blood. Then I can add some stitches. So,a wet rag and a needle and thread",Donatello said. "I can get it!",Pinkie said. She ran over to a bush and pulled out a needle and a roll of thread. Twilight and Fluttershy raised their eyebrows. "I keep fashiony things around in case Rarity ever needs them. Don't tell her",Pinkie said. Twilight and Fluttershy crossed their hearts. Pinkie giggled and ran over to hand the things to Donatello. "Thanks",Donatello grinned. "I'll be right back with the rag",Pinkie ran off. "Umm..I just wanted ask,what are your names?",Twilight asked. Fluttershy already knew Donnie and Mikey,and Leo was it? Fluttershy hadn't captured the last one's name. "I'm Donatello. You can just call me Donnie",Donnie explained. "I'm Leonardo. I'm called Leo",the blue banded one said. "I'm Michaelangelo but I prefer Mikey. I'm the cutest out of all of us",Mikey explained. Twilight nodded with a slight giggle. Leo sighed. "This is my younger brother,Raphael",Leo looked at Raphael. "We call him Raph",Leo said. "Or bonehead or hothead",Mikey listed. Leo stomped on Mikey's foot and made the two girls giggled."I'm Twilight Sparkle",Twilight told them, Pinkie Pie ran over with a wet rag. She was breathing hard. "Where did you go?",Twilight asked her. "Well first I went down to Sugarcube Corner and bought some cupcakes. Then I ran to AppleJack's barn and picked apples with Granny Smith. Then I went back to Sugarcube Corner and asked to borrow a rag. Then I went to a stream and dipped the rag in it. And then I came here",Pinkie explained. This didn't surprise Fluttershy or Twilight but it made their friends gasp. "You'll get used to it",Twilight told them.
Donnie cleaned and stitched up Raph's wounds. He didn't know what else to do exactly. He knew that his older brother needed rest for he did lose a lot of blood. But they couldn't lay him down outside,he needed a actual bed. "You guys wouldn't have a place where my brother could stay,would you?",Donnie asked. He knew it was much to ask the three girls but his brother really needed it. Twilight and Pinkie Pie glanced at each other but Fluttershy made no hesitation. "He can stay in my apartment. I have an extra room",Fluttershy said quietly. Donnie grinned at her. "I'll go get my car and we can drive up there",Fluttershy said. She walked away. "Why is she so...kind?",Leo asked the two remaining girls. "That's just who Fluttershy is. She's never had a temper with anyone. Not even once, though her feelings can be hurt easily",Twilight explained. "She's Raph's opposite",Mikey grunted. Twilight looked at him confused. "Raph's hot tempered and he isn't always kind. Though his feelings can get hurt easily too,kinda like Fluttershy",Donnie said to them. A horn honked and Donnie looked over. Fluttershy waved at them from a white van. "Come on,I'm borrowing AppleJack's for a bit. My car is actually getting patched up as we speak",Fluttershy said. Donnie helped Leo and Mikey pick up Raph. They put him in the van and them and the three girls drove off.
Leo kept quiet,staring at his younger brother. Leo blamed himself for letting Raph get hurt. He should've found Raph instead of Donnie. And these girls had took them in even though they were different. Leo and his brothers owed them. The van stopped and Leo,with Mikey and Donnie, lifted Raph out of the van and into the building. Luckily no one was in the lobby at the moment. It was easy to get upstairs and to Fluttershy's apartment. It reminded Leo of April's. Fluttershy had showed them a room where they could lay down Raph,in which they did gratefully. Fluttershy stood in the doorway. "I'll let you guys have some time alone. I'll get some drinks for you guys",Fluttershy told them. She turned around and closed the door. Leo smiled. He was so thankful to befriend someone like Fluttershy. When they first encountered April,she was terrified of them. Not that he didn't like April or anything,he just thought that Fluttershy didn't have such a scared reaction. It was like he was completely normal in her eyes. Leo sighed a bit. "He should be ok. Just resting will help him more",Donnie said. "Guys,I think we should go to Canterlot High with Twilight,Pinkie,and Fluttershy. Maybe we should kinda explore you know. It won't be that bad right?",Mikey spoke up. Leo was taken aback by Mikey's idea. He wanted to stay beside Raph until he was awake. But Mikey did have a point. It would be a good way to explore. "That's a good idea,Mikey",Donnie agreed. They looked at Leo,awaiting his permission. Leo took one quick look at Raph and said,"Alright". Mikey fist pumped the air and Donnie did a silent cheer.
Fluttershy had given them each a refreshing soda. She said that they could borrow some hoodies and jeans that she had. Luckily,Fluttershy had hoodies that were the turtles' mask colors. The jeans slipped on perfectly. Fluttershy had also volunteered to watch Raph for the rest of the day. Mikey put up the hood and loved it. He walked out with his brothers and waved goodbye to Fluttershy. Time to go to school for the very first time.
