Wings

And they loved the sky as much as they loved me. And I could only watch as they fell. Helplessly, I watched. And the sky took them to the ground and the book watched and I watched.

And I was a mare with a mission. I was going to break my vow of silence! I was going to make them all see, see what They see. And they were watching.

The door to my house opened easily, the cloud hinges not letting out a sound. The Book was something I had given out a long time ago and had only recently been returned to me. The yellow cover-

"Yellow means caution!" Was what she said.

-did not even come close to describing the contents of it. The book was corrupted evil, dark and nefarious. Perhaps some demon had made it his own centuries ago? I didn't care. All that mattered was that I get it to Twilight. And then maybe she could see Them.

I could warn her. Warn her.

Yeah. I could warn her. About those who watched.

They were watching me...

They were swarming the ground. There were so many of them. Innumerable. Black shapeless forms dancing and parading between all of the ponies. And they were all Watching me.

I had the Book clutched tight to my chest. Tighter than I wanted to. I wanted to throw it away but I couldn't because they would See me and then they would Watch everyone and I can't let them watch everyone.

I was in the air. It was ok. They didn't have wings and They couldn't fly. I was higher in the sky.

"Heh..." I laughed a bit. Finally someone else would know. They would know. They would see. See them.

And I flew into the Library. And Twilight was there. And she took the Book. And she didn't understand why I was flying inside.

She still couldn't See them.

"Can you See them Twilight?" I asked.

"See who?" She replied. There was one behind her.

"Them. They." I tried to describe them by their name and failed.

"Who?" She looked confused. The One behind her was laughing. And it Danced. And I Saw it.

"Behind You." I pointed. She whirled around and I fled for it. The Book was with Twilight. She would See them. I could See them.

"Heh..."

It was ok. The Book was with Twilight. I was Safe. They could See me but They could only Watch me and not Touch me or make me Fall.

I could only Watch helplessly as the fell.

They were there and I was here and I would not See them and I was Free and she was not and I am gone.

"Dash? Where did you go?" She flipped through the book. "Hm. Interesting." She shrugged and flipped it over on to her bed. "I'll look through it later."
