Toy Chica, “Old” Chica, and Fluttershy strolled through the hallways, heading toward the Break Room. Chica had “calmed down” and was now only brooding softly as she led the way through the halls.
“So, “Fluttershy”, where are you from again?”
“Ponyville. It’s a very nice place where all of my friends live.”
“Ooooh! Sis, can I go there with Fluttershy once we’ve finished the night shift?”
“Sure… there’s just the tiny problem that we’d need to explain why you’re not there in the morning. And management seems pretty keen on sending us back to Parts & Service in case we start acting weird.”
“Oh.”
“We’ve gotten to the break room. So, let’s get the first aid kit. Seriously, little sis… I don’t get why you’re so quick to defend this pathetic non-a-Night-Guard.”
“I’m… really not. I… well…” She pointed to Fluttershy.
Chica rolled her eyes. “And that’s your only reason? Wow. Didn’t take long for you to get soft. Next thing I know I’ll be seeing you bring the Night Guard something to drink!”
Toy Chica groaned and looked slightly annoyed with her sister.
“I’m missing something here, aren’t I?”
“Well, do you wanna do it, sis? I mean she is your friend… best she hear it from you.”
“Hear what from you, Toy Chica?” Fluttershy’s face grew odd with concern, her head canting to the side.
“Uhh… Fluttershy, I…”
“Whimper mentioned something about that others wanted to kill him…” Her ears drooped, tail going limp as she looked down toward the ground.
“But I’m not like that! We just… it’s how we’re programmed.”
Fluttershy sniffled.
“It’s… it’s okay. I’ve… been close to feeling like that before. But, we… that doesn’t happen in Ponyville.”
“Wait. Hold up. You… understand… murder, “Fluttershy”?”
“Can I try something to you? I promise I won’t hurt you.”
Chica chuckled. “Yeah… don’t think you could do that if you tried. Go ahead. I can’t wait to see what something as timid as you could do to me.”
“All right. I just need you to look at me.”
“That’s… it. I could be going after the Ni–WHAT THE…?”
The Stare shot out. Chica felt her body tense up and freeze.
“WHAT IS THIS! SIS?!”
“Don’t look at me, I didn’t even know she could do this!”
Fluttershy gave out a soft chuckle. “I call it The Stare. Guaranteed to make anything freeze and lock up as long as I keep looking at them.”
“I CAN’T MOVE! WOULD YOU STOP IT ALREADY? THE NIGHT GUARD COULD BE GETTING IN PLACES HE DOESN’T BELONG!”
“If, and only if, you say please.”
“Please. Please, Fluttershy, stop…”
Fluttershy closed her eyes, and Chica felt her body loosen up.
“Whoa… that’s awesome.”
“I try. Now, can we get the first aid kit?”
“Of course!”
