"Maybe its better that we stay here for the day," Twilight said, closing the door before Fluttershy or Rainbow Dash could look out the door.

"But, what if I bite you too?" Fluttershy asked, fear creeping into her voice. "I don't any other pony to have a possibility of dying! And then Rainbow might try to bite you too!"

"Fluttershy, I'll be fine," Twilight said, walking over to Fluttershy. "As long as you don't mind sleeping down in the basement. I'll have to lock the door so you can't get out. Plus, I'm sure Rainbow will have complete control over herself." Twilight turned away from Fluttershy and looked and Rainbow Dash and showed the worry in her eyes.

"Yeah Fluttershy," Rainbow said. "The only thing that will probably happen is I get bat ears. I have everything else." Rainbow paused, thinking of what she could say to make Fluttershy calm. "And maybe, since that's the only thing that changes for you, too, maybe you'll have complete control!" Rainbow looked at Fluttershy, expecting an answer.

"Well," Fluttershy started. "I have noticed I can control myself more every time one part of my body doesn't have to change.." Fluttershy still looked a little uncertain, but definitely felt better. "So, um, why do we have to stay here?" Fluttershy asked. "Not that I don't mind," she added quietly.

"Oh, um," Twilight thought for a moment. "Well…." Her eyes lit up a little. "I want to see how you act at night. I'm gonna come down around midnight and see." Seeing the worry in Fluttershy's eyes Twilight added, "But don't worry, I'll be careful." Twilight gave a smile, hoping to be convincing.

"Ya know, that's nice and all, but why do you REALLY want us to stay?" Rainbow got closer on the word "really" then backed away. "I mean, you said we we're going to go to Rarity's. But now after you look outside, all of sudden we should stay here." Rainbow looked smugly and Twilight, seeing through her lie.

Twilight sighed. "There's a large crowd of ponies going all the way from here to Rarity's." Twilight looked at Rainbow and Fluttershy. "I thought that maybe I should wait until tomorrow when there won't be a crowd that you have to worry about."

"And why was-" Rainbow was interrupted when the door opened and Pinkie Pie came in.

"Hey Twilight!" Pinkie said in her normal cheery way. "I saw Fluttershy and Rainbow come in so I decided it would be fun to see what's going on. They seemed in a hurry." Pinkie looked over and gasped and the sight of Fluttershy and Rainbow. "What happened to you two?"

After Fluttershy told Pinkie Pie what happened, Pinkie stood there, seemingly frozen. "That's sooooo cool! I wish I could be a bat. It would be so much fun having wings and fangs and-"

"Yes, except there is no way to change them back," Twilight said before Pinkie could continue talking. "They are completely bat, except for their ears."

"Ohhhhhhh." Pinkie looked at the two pegasi. "I have made a decision!"

"Oh no," Twilight, Fluttershy, and Rainbow said in unison.

"I want to be a bat too!" Pinkie Pie smiled big. "It seems like sooooo much fun! Maybe we could ALL become bats!" Pinkie looked overjoyed at the idea that all her friends would be bats together.

"Um, Pinkie? The only way for us to be bats too, is for Fluttershy to bite us." Twilight gave a slight shiver at the thought.

"Soooooo…?" Pinkie looked over at Fluttershy. "So, Fluttershy, bite me! I REALLY want to be a bat!" Pinkie thought a moment. "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I should get Rarity and Applejack!" Before anypony could stop her, Pinkie raced out the door.

"Oh, no, do I really have to bite all my friends?" Fluttershy looked at Rainbow Dash, fear and worry clearly showing in her eyes.

Rainbow gave Twilight a look that clearly said to give them some peace. Twilight left without any more encouragement. "Of course not, Flutters," Rainbow said, putting her wing around Fluttershy. Just hearing Rainbow call her "Flutters" made Fluttershy feel better. "It'll all be okay. Now come on, let's go downstairs. I'm tired." Rainbow, wing still around Fluttershy, leads the way downstairs and settles into the bed Twilight had ready. Fluttershy got right up next to Rainbow, facing her. Just before she fell asleep, Fluttershy heard Rainbow whisper "I love you." Rainbow looked at her with sleepy eyes. "I love you too," Fluttershy replied before falling asleep next to the pony of her dreams.


Oooooh, a little something between Rainbow and Flutters (love that nickname.) I really don't like this shipping, but it's growing on me. Please keep posting those positive reviews!

Hopefully they'll have free wifi at the hotel! Love all of ya for liking my story!
