Fluttershy groaned as she struggled to clear the dizziness in her brain, "Ugh...wh-wha...what happened?"

All she remembered was she was leaving Sugar Cube Corner. She saw a hoard of multicolored butterflies fly into the Everfree Forest and was concerned, for something as small as a butterfly could be injured badly in that evil forest. Fluttershy pursued them and pleaded them to stop.

Usually, any creature, let alone butterflies would stop and pay attention to the butter and rose pink pegasus. After all, Fluttershy's talent was to communicate with the critters of Equestria. But the insects seemed to be deaf to Fluttershy's pleas, as if they were ignoring her. They continued to fly into the forests, much to Fluttershy's shock.

Fluttershy spread her wings and flew into the Everfree Forest, where she was knocked on the head by a large wooden stick.

Now it seemed Fluttershy was chained to the grey decaying yet strong concrete ground in an also decaying abandoned castle. The room was a throne room. The thrones were turning to a pile of rotten sawdust, the walls and its paint was grey and peeling, and the ceiling was one hoof bump from caving in. On the rotting walls, a tattered banner barely clung to a nail above the throne. The more Fluttershy squinted at it, the more it looked like an enemy from not only her past, but her friend's past. Lord Tirek. Tirek was the most recent villain to date, not to mention the toughest. But the Rainbow Power sent him back to Tatarus. Didn't it?

"Hello Fluttershy..."

Fluttershy began to tremble at the voice and began searching frantically for its owner, but she already knew who the owner was. Lord Tirek himself. Usually the giant monster's voice was powerful and strong, enough to knock any pony off its feet. But now it seems old, weak, and cracked, similar to an elder pony. Fluttershy new at this stage that the evil monster was at a very vulnerable state, but give him time, and he could destroy the entire world of Equestria by ridding every pony of their magic, flight, and strength.

Fluttershy was cowering now, "T-Tirek?! No! Y-Y-You should b-b-be b-b-back in-"

"Shut up!" Tirek shouted, "Sombra, you know what to do!"

The world around Fluttershy began to grow colder and colder as a puff of black mist with those threatening red-green eyes with the purple mist spilling out from them. The mist laughed darkly, this cause Fluttershy to try and run away. But the shackles stayed put around her ankles as Sombra entered her body.

Fluttershy screamed and tried struggle, but the more she struggled, the faster her flesh and bone were converted into crystal the color of her fur and mane. Soon there was no struggle, for now her entire body was crystal and the process was compete in second after it converted her head.

Fluttershy was now a crystal statue, her expression fear and sadness.

Sombra left the body and gained his pony form.

"Well done King Sombra...that power is useful...Now we wait...We wait for Discord..."

Author's Note

Thanks for reading, I know it looks a little short, but it's supposed to be. It's a little window, foreshadowing of what's going to happen later, because trust me were all going to need this.

I'm sorry it's not what you expect, but honestly all it's meant to be is foreshadowing and nothing more, the main plot will continue next chapter.

Once again, I'm sorry it's not what you expected, the main plot shall begin next chapter...
