Scarred

Twilight looked around her brand new library to find a good book to read before she went to sleep tonight. Spike pointed at rather large book on the second shelf.  She picked it up and examined the cover. It was a book on the history of Equestria. She decided that it would be perfect to read.

She and spike went upstairs and she hopped onto her brand new bed while spike curled up in his basket. Her new mattress was much softer than her old rough mattress. She loved this castle. She did miss her old home though. Some of her best memories were there.

She opened up the book to chapter one and began reading. After the first 20 pages her eyes began to grow heavy. She struggled to focus her eyes on the pages and had to reread everything so her brain could actually process it. Finally she put the book down and blew out her candle. She whispered,"Goodnight spike." Then she closed her eyes and went to sleep.

When she opened her eyes she was in a dark forest holding a flashlight with her horn. "Whe-Where am I?" She yelled. "Spike? Fluttershy? Applejack!?" She continued to yell her friends' names until her throat hurt. Then she saw a piece of paper on a tree. She slowly approached it then read what it said out loud. "Don't look or it gets you." Her whole body began to shake. "Wh-What ge-gets you?" She though out loud. Then a chill ran don her spine.  She turned around. I could have sworn something was watching me she thought. Then she heard hooves hitting the ground.

"Who's there? This isn't funny!" She shouted. Then she turned around again. She was face to face with a tall white earth pony wearing a tuxedo. It bared its teeth at her and growled. She recovered from her shock and screamed. She then ran blindly through the forest until her legs hurt. The pony didn't bother to case her. It would strike again. Twilight kept on running with terror. Soon it was hard to breathe. She stopped to catch her breath. Then her fear returned. She flew up and looked around the forest below her to make sure the pony wasn't there. She then carefully landed and thought about the situation she was in. She obviously wasn't in Equestria. And this pony was certainly was trying to kill. She decided that she should look around for other ponies. She turned on her flashlight and headed in a random direction. After a few minutes of walking she spotted an old looking building and walked towards it carefully. She saw another note on it. It had a drawing of the white pony and the word no written all over it. She began to shake again. Then she saw the door to the building was open.

Should I go in? She thought. She examined the building closely. Soon curiosity got the best of her and she walked in. It was one big room with just a chair in it. She looked around the room to see if there was anything else. Then when she looked at the chair again there was blood covering it. She turned around to run but the white pony was blocking her way. She slowly backed up against the wall. It approached her slowly and bared its teeth. Then a bunch of black arms appeared on its back. She screamed for help. I'm going to die she thought. Just as the pony was going to luge fear made her teleport out of the building. She turned around and saw that the pony was chasing her. She flew up and darted in a random direction as fast as her wings would carry her. She was so scared that she bumped into a large tree and fell to the ground. She instantly go onto her feat and looked around with her flashlight.

Nothing. Just trees and grass. Then she remembered a book she read  about a pony just like the one that was chasing her. It would abduct ponies and no one would see them again. Other times it would scar ponies for life. It was slender pony. The moment she thought that it sent chills down her spine. Her whole body was shaking hard and she found it hard to stand. Then when she looked at the tree she bumped into there was another note. The notes! she thought. In the legends Slender pony played this game where he would set up eight notes. If you find all of them you lived. But you would probably be scarred. If you don't in time, you die. So she had found two so far. She needed six more. I was her only chance at getting out of this nightmare. She picked up her flashlight with confidence. She would find all eight of those notes.

She trotted off into the forest hunting for the other six notes. Soon she stumbled upon a large concrete tunnel. She walked in as slow as possible looking for a note. She then saw a white piece of paper on the wall. Using her magic she carefully picked it up from a safe distance a looked at it. It just had a picture of the pony walking through the woods. She took the note and put it into the pile she had been carrying with her.

"Three down. Five to go!" She said with confidence. But this was Slender pony's game. He wouldn't let Twilight win that easily. Twilight was just about to leave the tunnel when he appeared. She ran to the other side and escaped the tunnel. She glanced behind her while running then hit something warm...She looked forward. She screamed as it growled and lunged at her.

Twilight woke up screaming. Then she sat there with a blank look on her face. She looked like her soul had been ripped out of her. Spike woke up and saw Twilight.

"Are you okay Twilight? Twilight..." She simply sat there. Then Spike saw that her eyes were colorless now. They were just a dull gray. Something was wrong. Very wrong. Spike ran down stairs and out the door for help. Rarity had been standing in front door about to knock so it was quite shocking to see the little dragon run around panicking all of the sudden.

"Well what is the matter my dear?" She asked confused. Spike simply grabbed her hoof and pulled her inside and up to Twilight's room.

"She woke up screaming and then just sat there like this!" He said with worry. Rarity gasped and dropped the drawings she had been holding.

"Get Celestia right now!"
