The Gift Of The Golden Feathers

She stumbles around a bit, failing to get her hoof work properly , finally giving up she flops on the grass with a loud thump.

"Why can't I be normal?" The soft spoken voice cracks through the calm night.

"Why can't I be normal like the others?" She repeats to herself again as tears start to stream down her face, placing both hooves over her eyes she tries to stop herself from crying.


It is early summer, yet the weather is oddly cool and damp out. As the stars dot the sky, the world seems to be muted, other than the occasional ruffle of a tree, or the soft trickles of a poor ponies tears flooding down across her face. The young mare removes her hooves from her face, exposing her marvelous golden eyes glistening from moons reflection and the fur around her eyes a darker shade from tears.

"Why do I have to be me?" , she lets out a soft sniffle as she rubs her nose with her hoof.

She stops crying as she sees several fireflies gracefully drift by her head, making a slight clicking noise as they skim by, going on their separate ways.
Her slight smile fades as they pass by her, slowly vanishing amongst the grass.

"Come back.." she lets out a soft sigh. "I don't mean to be different.."

Her head lowers as she bites her lower lip, feeling tears starting to swell up in her eyes. She lets out a few grumbles before down right breaking down in tears and sobbing uncontrollably.

"Um... I don't mean to intrude... but are you okay?" A soft voice breaks through as the young pony looks up and rubs her face.

"... Just fine... Please go away..."
"Well..." the voice speaks up once again, "I am Fluttershy... I was with my critter friends when Angel heard someone, so I came over here to see."

Fluttershy gracefully but cautiously walks over before stopping, raising her front hoof up, eagerly waiting for a response of approval.

"I understand if you don't want me here. I just want to help is all and I am sure Angle wants to help too."

Angel darts his eyes from Fluttershy to the new pony, thumping his hind leg in disapproval and crossing his arms before bolting away.

"Don't mind him.. he's just very very shy.. So whats your name?"

"...Derpy... Derpy Hooves.."

Grinning in delight, Fluttershy takes the response positively and approaches closer to Derpy and lays down in the grass with her. Spreading her wing she gently bats it around Derpy's back as a form of positive affection.

"No pony deserves to be alone. Especially on a cold night like this one. Do you come out here a lot?" Her head tilts to one side, her emerald green eyes shining back as they make contact with her eyes.

"..Yes.. it's where I find peace. Where I find that no one can make fun of my lisp... nor my eyes.. or my clumsyness..."

"I know what that's like.. When I was a little filly I was veeeery shy and clumsy. I could hardly fly." stretching out both her wings, she flaps them around a bit. "Even now I have problems flying... I am not a strong flier."

Looking at her wings, Derpy extends hers and does the same, flapping them slowly then getting faster. The grass slowly laying flat with every beat her wings give. She smiles briefly before stopping and tucking her wings in quickly and remaining silent.

"No pony deserves to be alone." Reaching back to her wings, she plucks out several of her own blonde feathers and placing them within the sad ponies wings.

"I need to go as the sun is already rising... but please know that when you walk.. or fly.. or sing.. or cry.. I will always be there with you." Fluttershy then begins to stand up, nudging Derpy's cheek lovingly before prancing away, looking back only once to say these words that will linger on in Derpy's mind;

"I will always be your friend."

Still laying down in the grass, she looks over at her wings. The golden like feathers twinkling as the sun peers over the horizon. She gets up on all fours, puffing up her chest as she slowly stretches her wings. With this gift, she knows that she will never be alone.

"Thank you, Fluttershy."
