Alone or so I Thought

Alone she stood in the mists of the mysteriously dark Everfree forest. “No pony knows I’m here, and if they did I probably would just be sent back home. I can’t let that happen, no not this time anyway. I have to do this.’ Fluttershy softly said in hopes of encouraging herself. “Twilight may have said I should be cured but I know I’m not ok and until I figure myself out I refuse to chance hurting anyone!” She stomped her hoof to the dirt in anger and marched alone into the mists. A small sigh escaped her as she looked back one last time wondering if she would ever see her dear friends again. Marching deeper into the forest she could slowly feel herself changing. She had no idea what was happening to her but she could feel a sharp lighting pain in her mouth as another pain stabbed her precious heart. Wincing she stopped and huffed looking around. “I…I am still to close to Ponyvill I mu-must keep moving. If I stop I could hu-hurt some pony.” Fluttershy huffed angry at herself for not being stronger. Slowly she hoofed on. With every minute that passed a new pain struck her. The thought of her changing here and going into Ponyvilll encouraged her on. Black clouds covered the sky around the forest and a icy breeze punched her lungs. “Why does this have to happen to me? What have I ever done to any pony to be hurt so badly!?” Fluttershy yelled at the breeze. Looking around she forced her wings open and tried to fight the icy wind and fly. Fluttershy looked around as she flew against the winds and found a dark cave calling out to her. No really this cave had a bright crimson glow and Fluttershy could hear a low muffled voice calling her. “Come here my dear Fluttershy. Don’t be a fool any more you will only get yourself killed out there! Now come inside!.” Fluttershy thought about this if not even for a second and flew to the cave. A rough crash landing made her hooves ache, her lungs hurt, and even worse she felt as though her heart was breaking. Rain dropped from the shy like knives and stabbed Fluttershy with every drop. She stood and weakly walked into the cave. “H-hello? Is any pony there? How do you know me? Who are you!?’ Fluttershy asked in confusion. In the cave the crimson light vanished as though it was never there. In the shadows she was surprised to see Princess Luna standing. “Oh my goodness, please pardon me Princess Luna! I was just trying to get away, I mean not because there is anything bad happening! W-well..i mean not that my friends have any part of this! I just am so scared that ill hurt someone..I am so sorry princess..” Fluttershy tried to explain her self to Luna like a thief red handed. The color was fading from her coat and her ears and face lowered to her princess. “Fluttershy, don’t be so afraid. I know what has happened here and I have the royal duty to let you know that you are not alone. Actually what your going through is more than familiar to me my dear subject. Luna smiled as two small fangs poked out to Fluttershy’s attention. “P-princess, what are those?” Luna smiled and tried not to giggle. "Why these are my weapons my dear. Against the world when it turns its back on me. You will also have them soon Fluttershy. For you see, we are monsters of my night. Yours may have been brought out by accident but the rest of us are born like this" Luna said in a calm tone trying not to frighten Fluttershy off. Looking at the princess Fluttershy shy felt her breaking heart slowly mending. "Princess Luna, am I going to hurt some one? I cant stand the thought of hurting any pony!" Fluttershy asked desperately as tears raced down her face. "That's why I left I don't want anyone hurt. I rather live alone and miserable in the da-' Luna placed her hoof gently on Fluttershy's mouth. "Shhh, calm down Fluttershy. It will be ok I promise. I will help you tame your monster, and show you every pony who is like us. Frist you must understand that no pony can ever know about our kind. It endangers us all and a new war would begin. Do you understand?" Luna asked soft and strictly. Fluttershy nodded slowly in confusion and crossed her heart. Looking at Princess Luna Fluttershy couldn't help but notice that she had grown into a adult mares body. If she white she would almost look exactly like Princess Celestia. There were much more to this monster that Princess Luna was describing but she would need help with it. So no matter what she has to treat Princess Luna as though she was Twilight. Princess Luna slowly started walking more into the cave. "Come with me Fluttershy its time to introduce you to every pony." She said with a smile.
