The Other Side [Book 1]

Chapter 24 - Stuck up

Applejack was with Link knocking down apples from the trees.

"So Link I want to see how y'all knock down Apples from the trees!" Said Applejack kicking a apple tree

"Well its easy for me I wear these gauntlets and just punch it." Said Link

He demonstrated and only a few fell down.

"What the?" Said Link repeating the punches.

"WORK DAMN YOU!" Shouted Link.

So he tried to do a running start but he tripped on a rock and rolled into it knocking down the remaining apples and one even landed on his head, they both laughed.

"Alright now I want to see what other ingredients we need to make a green potion for Twilight for her birthday!" Said Link

"Right behind you brother!" Said Applejack

So they both picked up the wagons containing the apples and headed to Zecora's house

"I wish I had my train it would make things so much easier." Said Link

"Yeah but it has plasma damage since the last you took it on your discovery." Said Applejack

"Right but Oozak knows about plasma damage he is smart, I like that." Said Link

"Right." Said Applejack depressingly remembering the conversation with Oozak

They both arrived at Zecora's house and she made a green potion which allows pony's magic stronger.

"That's the ticket!" Said Link

"So what's the payment?" Said Applejack

"I didn't make this potion for a fee, I merely did it for free!" Said Zecora's.

"Awesome!" Said Link

They both left the house and Link looked at the potion.

"So what does the potion do?" Asked Applejack

"Any pony who knows magic will drink this and it makes more focus on magic power." Said Link

"Ah shucks, my grandma is going to be in a snit I got to go link!" Said Applejack.

"Take it easy Applejack." Link said as she ran off.

Link whistled a song for a bit and took a stroll in the woods, Soon he could here two pony's crying.

"What is going on there?" Link said

He ran towards the crying and it was Rarity and Pinkie Pie sobbing their hearts out.

"Girls what's happened?" Said Link

"It's Fluttershy, she has turned into some kind of bully" Pinkie pie said Sobbing

"I don't understand how a darling of a pony could turn into such a thing." Said rarity also sobbing.

"I do know one thing, Bullies are not my thing I'm going to have a few words with that pony." Said Link walking past them.

Link looked really angry at this point and stood in the front garden and saw Fluttershy was acting all cool, but she looked into a puddle and looked kind of sad

"Knew it!" Said Link.

"You knew, WHAT!!!" Said Fluttershy looking angrily at Link.

"How could you treat your friends like that?" Said Link with an angered tone.

"They are all petty concerns about, Party hats and Fashion, You left them all in danger you know I know you are a terrible friend for them." Said Fluttershy.

"Seriously?" Said Link.

"Yeah seriously!, or are you too busy polishing your sword and shield to notice?" Said Fluttershy.

"Well I know that was harsh, you know I remember a attitude like you are now and trust me you do not want to push it." Warned Link

"No I don't want to push it, you're right." Said Fluttershy

"Good." Said Link turning to walk home.

"I want to SHOVE IT!" Shouted Fluttershy knocking down Link into a muddy puddle.

"Shouldn't have done that!" Said Link.

He got back up and pushed Fluttershy and then they both fought each other, Oozak came along with Rarity and they both saw that Fluttershy had link pinned down to the ground and she had a hoove on Link's throat strangling him.

"This..... Isn't....... You!" Said Link with a few gasps of breath trying to grab Fluttershy's neck.

"Dear god - She is going to kill him!" Said Rarity

"Not if I have anything to say about it!" Said Oozak and he made a magic spell that picked up Fluttershy

Then Link went to use it as his advantage.

"And you!" Said Rarity picking up Link.

"What is this petty magic?" asked Fluttershy

"I'm not sure, but it isn't petty knowing you can't break free." Link said with laughter.

Fluttershy gave him an angry look and there Rarity and Oozak stood giving them both angry looks.

"Guys help I have been grabbed!" Said Link.

"Play nice and maybe we will see who is the true bully!" Said Oozak.

"Fine." Fluttershy and Link said as Oozak and Rarity dropped them.

Fluttershy went to attack Oozak but Rarity saved him.

"Here let me do something that might work to refresh her memory." Said Rarity.

Oozak read the book of spells and told her what to do and there was a spark coming from Oozak's left hoove, Link noticed this but assumed that it was part of the spell

"God that powerful?" Said Oozak in shock quietly from the other three.

"So what now?" Said Rarity finishing the spell.

"We wait." Said Link reading the book.

Fluttershy realised that they were her friends and she couldn't be more sorry than she already was.

"I took some lessons on how to stick up for myself, I cant believe that was me...." Said Fluttershy quietly

"Hey look um, I'm sorry for any pain I caused during the fight." Said Link because he knew that he had an advantage, Because he wasn't a pony

"Me too." Said Fluttershy.

"Friends?" asked Link.

"Always." Said Fluttershy with a smile.
