I - Mysterious Mare

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The storm had passed, and the citizens of Ponyville were aloud to go outside. The grass was mucky and wet, and the pavements were slippery, but everyone seemed to enjoy running around in the fresh air, and not be cooped up in their houses. Twilight stepped outside of her castle, almost slipping on the first step. After taking a few steps, her friends came to join her. When walking around the town, no pony seemed to question the unexpected weather.

Ponies almost immediately saw her. A weird mare in a cloak. At first glance, the ponies of Ponyville thought nothing of it, thinking it was Zecora in her robe again from when they first saw her. But, after wondering around the town for a little bit, the ponies soon realised that is wasn't who they thought it was. The mare was pure white, and had no stripes on her, so it could not be Zecora. Upon further inspection, the mare was just wondering around, watching every pony else.

A few grabbed their fillies and ran indoors, but the others didn't seem to be as alarmed as others. Instead, they found Princess Twilight and asked her about it. Many complained, many thought that Twilight would know who she was. But she didn't. The new mare wondered around the place for ages, observing others and the place around her. She seemed confused at the sight of ponies. No pony had the courage to talk to her, so the only information Twilight knew is that she was never seen before.

Twilight and her friends were walking towards the new mare, whom had turned back and was heading towards the Everfree. Dash had pointed out that wherever this new pony goes she leaves a trail of drops of blood, so this just made them more concerned and curious. As the unfamiliar mare stepped into the entrance of the Everfree Forest, she noticed she was being followed by Twilight and her friends, so she turned towards the forest and ran.

"Hey! Wait up!" Dash yelled after her.

Zipping through the forest, the new mare managed to refrain from falling or hitting anything whilst she ran. It had seemed like she knew the place by heart, as behind her Rainbow Dash had already ran into a tree and Starlight and Spike fell over not long ago, trying to catch up. The mysterious mare vanished into a bush of thorns, as if she didn't care about the sharp things that come out of the bush. Everyone that was chasing her stopped in front of the bush, pondering how they were going to go around it. They soon figured out that the only way was to go through it.

Twilight carefully lit up her horn and removed as much of the bush as she could. The ponies went through it one by one, following the mare that had came through. Once they were all through, they looked up to see a small shack, and behind it was a graveyard. They had never came across this before, and they haven't been in this part of the forest either, so they had to stay alert for any monsters that they were unfamiliar of. Trotting towards the torn-apart house, they came up to the door and gently knocked on it, scared that the whole house will come down.

"Come in." Said a slightly robotic voice coming from inside the house.

They slowly opened the broken door, and galloped inside. The shack was bigger on the inside, and there stood the mare that they were chasing. They stood inside the house, staring at the mare, until their attention was drawn by the sound of the door loudly shutting by itself. The main six and their two friends soon looked back at the mysterious mare, who took off her cloak and revealed herself.
