The Fearless Warrior

Three days had passed since Discord was defeated. The world of Equestria was enjoying the end of chaos. Of course, not everypony was happy with that. Pink Pie missed the candy cotton clouds and the rains of chocolate milk, but despite that everypony was enjoying the normal and ordinary life they had, especially Fluttershy. She was the shyest pony around Equestria, with a kind heart and the memories of her mean self haunted her. She often caught herself thinking about how mean she was with her friends and, even if it was not her fault, she still blamed herself.

Right now, the yellow pegasus was finishing her chores with the small critters that lived around her cottage. A soft smiled crossed her lips as she nuzzled the forehead of a squirrel that was eating a piece of nut that she gave him. A fresh breeze came and waved her pink mane, it was the perfect image of a peaceful world. But that peace broke when a loud roar startled her, birds started to fly away from the top of the trees in Everfree forest. She watched that with unease thoughts of what was that. Usually the wild animals that lived there did not roared in vain, something bad must have happen.

Without second thoughts she flew towards Ponyvile, where most of her friends lived. She wanted to talk with her most intelligent friend, Twilight Sparkle. As she approached the city she could see the tallest building in the center come into view first. Right after a few smallest buildings and the house that was carved in a tree. There was where her purple friend lived and was also the library of the city. She landed near the door and when she was going to knock the door suddenly opened and almost hit the yellow pegasus. From the inside a pink pony came shaking violently. It was Pink Pie having a strong attack of her 'pink sense'. Right after the pink pony was a purple one, Twilight.
“Oh! Hey Fluttershy, how are thing going at your cottage?” The purple unicorn asked smiling.
“Thank you for asking Twilight. Is good to see all my critters normal again” Fluttershy stared with a soft voice, more like a loud whisper. “What is happening with Pink Pie? Is that her Pink Sense?” The yellow pegasus asked, watching her pink friend shaking violently.
“Well, yes, she came to me talking about imminent danger, and something that we have never seen before. But after we saw what Discord made with us and with Ponyvile I think is hard to be something we never saw before.” The purple unicorn answered.

That made the yellow pegasus thinks. “Well, maybe it has something to do with what I heard today coming from Everfree forest.” Fluttershy said and made Twilight look at her with a confusion expression. “I heard a really loud roar coming from the forest today” Fluttershy explained. “But that is not normal. I never heard anything like that before. It was like the animal was... asking for help.” The yellow pegasus said widening her eyes. “Twilight! We have to go there; something terrible must be happening with the animals of Everfree forest!” The usually shy and calm pegasus had grabbed her purple friend on the shoulders and were shaking her.
“C-Calm down Fluttershy!” Twilight said with her head spinning from the shakes. “We don't even know what creature is! What if is dangerous?”

Fluttershy let her friend go. “It doesn't matter! If it needs our help then we got to help it!” The yellow pegasus's voice was urgent.

Twilight knew that it would be more than just dangerous for her yellow friend to go alone, and that would happened if she did not agreed to go with her. “Ok, ok. But first lets grab all the others first.” Twilight said starting to walk. “Come ‘on Pink Pie, We got to discover what is making your pink sense to go crazy!” The purple unicorn stated.
“Oky Doky Loky!” The pink pony said with her voice shaking and tried to follow her other two friends.

Soon all the six were at Fluttershy's cottage. Twilight Sparkle, Pink Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Fluttershy herself. They stared at the forest in silence for a couple of minutes.
“Well? Shall we go?” Rainbow Dash, the cyan pegasus with rainbow mane and tail, asked in an impatience voice. She was flying in place, near her friends.
“Y-yes... Let's go... somepony is in there and needs our help” Fluttershy said walking towards the forest, surprising her friends with that display of courage.
“Who are you and watcha did with mah friend Fluttershy?” Applejack, an orange pony with blond tail and mane asked in her usual accent, but not louder than a whisper. The six of them were near the forest when they heard some footsteps. It where approaching slowly. The six of them gathered together, pressing into each other. Pink Pie started to shake again.
“Ohmygosh!” started to say. “t-that's it! THAT is the thing that my pink sense was warning me!” Her voice shaking from her spasms.

The creature approached the six ponies as it step into the light and were full visible, the six equines could see it and their jaw dropped into the ground. Right in front of them was a biped creature. All covered in blood, hurt and had the same stare of a dragon ready to attack.
