Kid Anon and Fluttermom Part 30

>you're asleep
>you are dreaming....at least. You think you are.
>or are you awake?
>The room is brighter than you remember leaving it.
>something was off.
>the doors leading anywhere were gone.
>the windows, all but one. had vanished.
>you lazily get out of bed, and walk to it.
>there's a glow emanating from it, through it's glass. It draws you closer, it seems almost inviting.
>you peer through it. you can see..something
>it was a dining room, not any you were familair with.
>it also seemed adjusted for other humans. nothing equestrian about it.
>you could see a small childlike figure sitting at a table. Enjoying a meal, across from him was a larger shadow figure. it appeared female.
>it patted the smaller figure, the child figure seemed excited. up until...
>the adult figure seemed to have started coughing. the smaller figure looks worried.
>the child figure goes and hugs on to the adult figure. and then begin to fade away.
>yet, you found yourself still staring at the empty dining room.
>It started to glow red
>then it burst into flames, it was as quick as a flash. as the flames rushed out.
>you put your hands up in terror as they burst through the window like an explosion. engulfing you completely.
>you are dead....?

>you open your eyes, gasping for air.
>you quickly jumped out of your bed....again.
>you were terrified. you couldn't even scream as you began to draw breath.
>you quickly look around frantically. It was, darkish in the room. And this time. Everything was normal.
>The sun must be coming up soon, as it's light is starting to barely fill the sky. And yet the sun itself couldn't be seen through any of the windows.
>"just a dream?" you said, silently to yourself. it had to be.
>you yawned as you tried to get your thoughts in order. It was also still very early. Something you weren't quite used too.
>You grab "Friender" and carefully walk over to Fluttershy's door and open it as silently as possible.
>She's still asleep, it's looks like it's too early for her too.
>you sigh in relief as you close the door. Everything was normal. nothing freaky or crazy was happening.
>Suddenly you started thinking of more realistic events. Such as going to school.
>you went and sat on your bed as you still tried to clear your head. No...perhaps it's better to think about it after getting enough rest.. Last thing you needed was to make a mistake on the subject. Especially since it seemed important to Fluttershy.
>as you fluffed your pillow and straightened your blankets to plop back down. You suddenly hear a knocking on the front door.
>"wha..?" you found that od, it was still early. were you dreaming still? were you lucid?.
>you slowly approached the front door, and called out "hello? who's there?"
>you hear a knocking again. Did they hear you?
>You get to the door, and slowly open it. You wondered if Fluttershy was expecting someone.
>plus, why were you worried? Everyone in Ponyville seemed pretty friendly anyway.
>You peer out the door, and again ask "Hello?"
>and there, infront of you is a creepy hooded figure. Still of four legs though. heck, you could swear that you saw it's eyes glow through the open part of it's hood.

>Well, you were a sensible kid. Given you lived in a world where you knew mythical creatures exist. and There were some evil that Fluttershy and her friends did have to battle to defeat.
>there was only one logical conclusion to this situation, only one way to act to this strange visitor.....
>"DEMMMMOOONNNNNNN" You scream
>You quickly slam the door, and rush over to Fluttershy's room, slamming the door open.
>you immediatly yell "MOOOMMMM!" the moment you see her, causing her to immediatly jump to the ceiling like a cat. and then falling back into her bed.
>She started to frantically look around "What..who! what?!"
>You don't even take the time to notice her startled form as you find a broom to use as a weapon, and throw another towards Fluttershy to use as a weapon. "MOM, TAKE THIS. THERES A D-D-D-DEMON AT THE DOOR!" You were shaking, stumbling on your words.
>Fluttershy, still disoriented from the sudden waking. replies "W-what? Anon whOW!"
>the broom smacks her on the face.
>You hear her yelp and look back at her....oh crap...you forgot...she doesn't have hands.
>"m-mom. S-sorry I didn't mean to hit you...b-but...DEMON! DEMON AT THE FRONT DOOR. QUICK. USE YOUR MAGIC THINGY YOU TOLD ME ABOUT!"
>Fluttershy rubbed her head, that really stung. but she certainly was awake now. "demon? Anon are you alright? you didn't have a bad dream did you?"
>you look towards her door, incase the demon came bursting through. "N-no mom! I swear! I was awake. It was knocking on the door!"
>suddenly there's another knock at the door
>you turn pale "j-j-j-ust like that! Quick...Blast it, Blast it!"
>Fluttershy herself got spooked the moment she heard the door knock as well. She wasn't expecting anyone. But she was questioning in her head what you saw. But she couldn't take any chances. She couldn't actually blast whatever might be out there...but maybe..she could..reason with it?

>Fluttershy put on a brave face as she stepped forward "Anon, stay here alright? if...if anything happens. I want you to take Angel and run ok?"
>You started to tear up. Just...go?! "N-no mom! I-I can't. just..."
>you felt stupid. Maybe if you got the jump on the demon...great, now she was going to sacrifice herself. "M-mom..I..I"
>Fluttershy started to feel more chilled as every second passed, but she went closer to the door "Anon, don't...don't..just please..I don't want anything to happen to you."
>You step back. You look at Angel, he was caught trying to get out of the blankets from Fluttershy's jump. "....mom..."
>Fluttershy continued stepping forward, starting to feel more and more fear as she gets close to the door. letting out a small squeal of fear when the door suddenly is knocked at again.
>You stood just at her door as Angel went to hop beside Fluttershy. But you quickly nab him and hold him close "No Angel!..D-don't...."
>You also weren't about to abandon her and look at Angel and point at the broom you tossed towards Fluttershy. "Angel..we can't just leave her by herself...can you use a broom?"
>Angel was trying to figure out what was exactly going on. But it was dire, that he knew. He saluted to you and grabbed the broom..well tried. he couldn't exactly lift it well.
>Fluttershy said hello once more, but still no answer.
>you stood at the ready. Just incase.
>Fluttershy, started to feel terrified. Whatever it was. It wasn't replying to her.
>Fluttershy took a breath. Atleast it wasn't trying to burst into the cottage.
>She slowly opened the door. And there it was. The hooded figure.
>Fluttershy peered out the door. and took a gander at the figure.
>It was Zecora. Well you didn't know that.
>Fluttershy was relieved that it wasn't a demon of any sort. and noticed she had two saddle bags and even a bag in her mouth. that explains why she wasn't replying.
>But you...you couldn't see that.

>You readied your broom. Clearly this demon had hypnotised your mother and was planning sinister. you readied your broom. "Angel, we gotta go now! it's got mom!"
>You immediately charge forward, letting out a battlecry as Angel trips, unable to hold his broom.
>The door fully opens as Fluttershy let's in the figure. CRAP, SHE LET IT IN. SHE'S HYPNOTISED IN FULL.
>"I'LL SAVE YOU MOOOOMMMMM" You put the broom above you for a heavy downward slash. "RRRAAAAWWWRRR"
>Fluttershy yelled out "WAIT ANON, SHE'S NOT A DEMON!"
>her yelling wasn't loud enough to pierce your battlecry as you bring the broom down.
>though the figure was quick on it's feet, and sidestepped your slash.
>You lose balance, and fall forward on your face. the broom smacking your nose directly in the center. "a-a-OWWW!"
>the hooded figure removes ir's hood and carefully drops it's bag on the table and looks at you, then at Fluttershy, and giggled. "ahh, so this is the one known as Anon, I certainly hope his mind is not gone."
>Fluttershy walked up to you to see if you were ok. Luckily, you didn't break your nose. But...your face hurt. You scrunched up from the pain as you flipped and sat upwards. "A-anon...a-are you alright? w-what were you trying to do?"
>You began rubbing your nose. "Mom, I was trying to save you from the demon."
>Zecora laughed again. "from a being that is as new as you are, that kind of accusation isn't quite up to par."
>why is she rhyming? You didn't even understand that sentence. You tried to get up to go for a second swipe. But Fluttershy moved the broom away from you. "Anon, she isn't a demon. She's a friend of mine. Please don't try to hurt her."
>you weren't convinced, you looked into fluttershy's eyes for any signs of being a zombie "Mom...." she doesn't seem like a zombie "who is she? if she isn't a demon?"

>Suddenly Fluttershy gave you a light tap. I think she tried to give you a smack. But she didn't put any force into it "Anon, she isn't a demon. Please don't be rude to our guest...please..." she sighed, and went back to examining your face. All there was was a bruise on your nose "She's Zecora, a friend of mine. I think she's here to examine you."
>Zecora finished putting down all her bags and walked over to you. you felt a little stiff by her presence. Infact.....was she..a zebra? Wait...examine? You couldn't remember anything about that. It was way too early for this kind of thing.
>Fluttershy went to a cabinet to pull out a small band-aid for your bruise. It wasn't needed. But she didn't want to take any chances.
>Zecora started to go through her bags. taking out..what seemed like herbs and potions...cripes...was she a witch doctor..zebra? she started to speak as Fluttershy gave your nose a kiss and put a band aid over it. "I am quite surprised by your son Fluttershy" she turned to walk over to you "I sadly can already say, I've never seen one before, much to my dismay"
>you tap at the band-aid, it was on there pretty good.
>What was this zebra..pony...talking about? "Mom, why is she here exactly?"
>Fluttershy helped you up as she smiled at you "She's here to examine you, to see what medicines I can give you and see if she might know where you came from..." suddenly she frowned "...though...it seems she's never heard of a human either" She looked towards Zecora "Zecora....Are you still able...I mean...can you help Anon in case...he gets sick?"
>Zecora went and pulled out a small corked vial in her mouth and put it beside you. "I can still help, have no doubt. Anon, can you please drink this diseased ..."
>but before she could finish her rhyme, both Fluttershy and you respond simultaneously "DISEASED?!"

>You scoot backwards and behind Fluttershy as she looks at Zecora with shock. "Zecora! You can't make Anon drink that! If it's disea...what are you trying to do.?! kill him?!"
>oh geez, was Fluttershy sure she wasn't a demon?!
>Zecora turned towards the both of you, the smile never leaving her face "I know the concoction seems grim, but the potency is weak, and so he won't be torn apart from within."
>TORN APART?! WHAT?!
>you look towards Fluttershy as you shiver, this zebra was out of her mind "m-mom..I..I don't like her..."
>Fluttershy couldn't deny that whatever Zecora wanted you to do seemed pretty dangerous. "Zecora...why do you want to make my son sick? you can't"
>Zecora tried to reassure Fluttershy "do not worry Fluttershy, I can promise you he will not die. The brew is only to make him slightly ill, then I can test my cures to see what will fit the bill."
>you were damned scared, even Fluttershy was reluctant. Maybe she should have tried regular medicine first..infact, she looks up at Zecora. "Z-zecora, is there anyway we can try..well...regular medicine?"
>Zecora nodded "we could try some of your medicine if you want"
> Zecora's smile suddenly disappeared though "But we must take a precaution first, we don't know how usual pony medicine will work."
>Fluttershy tilted her head in puzzlement "what do you mean by that?"
>"modern medicine may be good for a a stallion or a mare, but we do not know how a human might fare"
>you were confused "w-what does that mean?"
>Zecora laid it out flat. "it could be fatal to you Anon"
>You turn white "F-fatal?"
>Fluttershy was hevaily shocked. She was glad you never got sick. She may have...tried the medicine...and who knows what might have happened. "then...h...how do we know if he can take it?"
>Zecora went through her bags and took out a small knife "the medicine and a sample of his blood is all I need, to see if the medicine will go through clean."

>your pupils shrank at the sight of the knife and you duck behind Fluttershy "nonononononononononononononono, Mom! Mom! NO..NOPE..nononono! Don't let her near me"
>Fluttershy wasn't afraid of Zecora actually hurting you but "b-blood, Zecora...I don't...I mean...d-..do you really need his blood? and...with that..knife?"
>Zecora chuckled...almost evilly it sounded "It will not hurt, and I'll only take what I need. The amount of blood would be the size of a few small beads."
>Fluttershy was still reluctant. But..she trusted Zecora, and...it had to be done...for your health. She turned to you, and looked deep into your eyes. "Anon, please listen. I need you to be brave, I want you to trust me, and Zecora. and Understand that this is for your health...ok?"
>ohhhhhh nooooo "M-MOM?! SHE HAS..A...KNIIIFFEE!"
>Zecora seemed to be taking your fear and accusations in stride. it was humorous to her. She found you peculiar, she had never laid eyes on you before. it was remarkable. But she was here to fulfill a favor, as all friends would do.
>Fluttershy did her best to settle you down "I-I know...b-but, if you pay attention to her carefully and be a brave little gentlecolt. y-you probably won't feel a thing. We..we just want to be able to help you incase you get sick..."
>You weren't convinced it was going to go so smoothly."M-mom...what if...what if..I" You couldn't think of a good reason to convince Fluttershy otherwise. Anything too extreme she'd probably dismiss.
>Fluttershy thought of a plan, and grasped you gently and nuzzled into you "What if I hold you and give you a nice big hug through the whole thing?I bet you'd be able to do it if I was close enough to make sure nothing bad happened. And..well..don't you feel braver already?"
>more comforted was more like it, but that was probably Fluttershy's plan. She was always so warm. Her fur made her so cuddly. you always felt safe the closer she was. and this was pretty darn close....but still "I dunno..."

>Zecora found the moment cute, and decided maybe if she demonstrated her skills. you might feel better about it.
>She took the knife to her mouth and lifted her hoof. and make a very quick incision.
>Fluttershy and you flinched at the sight.What was she even doing?
>Zecora came close to the both of you and showed you her hoof. There was barely a cut there, and only a little blood coming out "This would be the cut I would be making, now don't you feel silly for all that shaking?" she chuckled.
>Fluttershy took a breath, irked by even the smallest of blood...but...if that was it "I-it doesn't...seem so bad...Anon...you could handle a teeny tiny poke,,right?"
>it didn't seem so bad...she seemed...competent enough. "ermmm..."
>Zecora turned away "I never thought a human would be of a cowardly lot,perhaps he is more frightened than I th-"
>Cowardly lot?! what?! over a small poke?!...well ok...you have been pretty scared...of a lot of things...and the demon thing...didn't help but...you were getting better...certainly better enough to not being called a full on coward! "Woah Woah, hey! I'm not that b-bad"
>you put out your hand "I-I just was getting ready, I mean...you know"
>You couldn't come up with an excuse, though you played right into Zecora's hands....hooves...
>Zecora nodded "Then let us proceed"
>And so she performed the procedure. It didn't even hurt.
>what followed was a series of events where she took your blood into an empty bottle, and then took some of the medicine fluttershy handed to her and put it in another empty bottle.
>She seemed to mix some other concoction with the medicine. making some kind of fizzy purple medicine.
>this was pretty cool, you started to stare, intrigued.
>Zecora carefully took the tiny amount of blood and dipped it into the purple liquid. It imediatly turned green and let out a..rather ominous black puff of smoke.

>"hmm, it's good he did not take these." she stared at the smoke "Should he have taken these at any point before, his soul would have taken wing, and soared"
>....welp...thats a pretty grim rhyme.
>Fluttershy was in shock, she herself had turned pure white, her mane and tail even becoming a lighter shade of pink. "......"
>You look over to her, she looked spooked to high heaven "M-mom?" you start shaking her gently "Mom..are you alright?"
>suddenly she bursts into tears as she hugs you "Anon! My little Anon..I'm So..so ...sososososo glad you never got sick..I..I could have.."
>oh..oh geez...she was thinking.. of. Well. You didn't know what to say. you could feel your robe get damp as her tear flowed. "it's ok mom...I'm..i'm a pretty healthy guy, I-i probably can't even get sick" you hoped..
>Zecora felt bad for poor Fluttershy, she was now more glad than ever she was here. She might have to be your doctor herself should she be successful in her examination. Simply due to the fact she'd be the only one able to help you should you get sick.
>Of course, she still needed you to drink the disease potion for her to try some remedies. She wasn't too worried about it's contents. the potion itself was extremely weak and she knew it would only cause you at worst....the sniffles.
