Starlight Twilight and Anons redemption

A scream can be heard across the campsite.

You and Twi are jolted awake.

You both slip on shoes and a jacket as you head outside.

The fog in the woods is thick.

You make your way to the cabin where the noise came from.

Seems to be the girls dorm.

You both rush inside.

Tables and chairs seem to be knocked over and some of the girls look scared.

"What's going on in here?"

Applejack slowly approaches Twilight.

"I-it was a ghost.."

"Ghost?"

The other girls turning and nodding to each other.

"What?"

A pink haired girl comes up.

"I-it's true, a ghost came and frightened everyone! Tables flipped over, stuff got thrown about."

"B-but Fluttershy, how can that be? Anon, are ghosts real in this world?"

"Uh, well, some people seem to think so. I personally don't believe it."

"Actually, come to think of it.. When I rented this place out the locals were telling me about an old ghost story.."

"A-are you serious? Come on, you don't really believe this do you? This looks more like a prank than the work of some ghost. Don't you think you're overreacting?"

"How dare you Anon, I never over-react to anything."

You raise an eyebrow at her.

Her friends seem to be giving her a skeptical look as well.

"W-what?"

"How about that time you wrote a letter to McDonalds and got them to replace the toy inside with a book?"

"T-that was um.."

"I remember that! Boy there sure were a lot of angry children showing up at the hotel that week."

"W-well Pinkie, it's not my fault the youth of todays generation don't show an interest in expanding their minds.."

You and Twilight look around a little more.

Portraits fallen off the walls, scratch marks in the wood.

"Well, I suppose based on this physical evidence one could assume it's a ghost. Did anyone actually SEE the things happening?"

One of the girls speaks up.

"I-i saw her, floating through the hallways. I screamed and hid under my bed.."

"Hmmm.."

Twilight asks,

"Does anyone here remember how that story goes?"

"I reckon I do, the ghost supposedly hauntin these campgrounds was a settler woman. 'Parrently she was real keen on a marryin' this explorer fella till's that is he ran upon a native camp. Wherein he met a native princess and her tribe. She charmed her way into his heart and he fell for her and not the settler woman. Realizin she could never marry the one she loved she committed suicide. Legend says she haunts these grounds to this day.."

It's quiet for a moment.

"A-anon, you don't think.. No, that's impossible, ghosts don't exist here, you said it yourself.."

"Well, I suppose it is an odd coincidence.."

It's later at breakfast.

Pancakes for breakfast.

Everyone is sitting around chatting with each other,

"So did you hear about the ghost?"

"What ghost?"

"It trashed the girls dorm apparently."

You're sitting next to Twilight.

Something feels weird about this scenario but you can't put your finger on it.

Is it really possible some vengeful ghost is wreaking havoc on the campsite?

No.. I mean, that's ridiculous isn't it?

You notice Starlight from across the cafeteria.

That story seemed awfully similar to what happened to you.

A princess makes a guy fall in love leaving his girl all alone.

Could it be Starlight who's behind this?

It did happen in the girls dorm after all.

Come to think of it, you don't recall seeing her there.

Could she be behind this?

Looking at her now she seems rather miserable.

Elbows on the table with her head in her hands.

Maybe.. You should talk to her..

It's still foggy as heck out today.

Navigating through the woods, you're nearly positive she headed down toward the lake.

The chill of the woods as you feel a bit cold and vulnerable walking through the trees.

You can't see her, but you can just barely hear her sounds moving through the trees.

For some reason you can't bring yourself to call out to her.

You focus on navigating your way through the trees quietly.

It isn't long before you seem to almost lose your way.

Deep within these trees following the faint noises of footsteps and cracking twigs, leaves, and branches.

Eventually you see her as she slumps herself against a tree.

From your vantage point she has her back to you.

You think about approaching her when suddenly Sunburst appears.

"H-have you thought about what I said?"

She's quiet for a moment.

"I'm sorry Sunburst, but I'm just not ready to start over with someone else."

"B-but I'm different, I won't just leave you for someone else! I know you must be feeling lonely right now."

"I can't! I'm sorry Sunburst, but I need to be alone right now.."

"I-i.. understand, I'll let you have some time then.."

Sunburst begins to leave the way he came.

Star slumps against the tree crying softly.

You quietly slink away.

Just like Twilight.. She didn't want to be with anyone else.

You hope she can move on a little better than Twilight did..

You had only just earned her trust and she had opened up to you.

And then with no warning at all you left her.

Now instead of leaving her bad memories behind, she's just made new ones.

Someone like Sunburst deserves her more than you do.

Someone who grew up with her, and cares for her.

But most of all, Star deserves to be happy.

It's dinner time.

Sirloin steak and mashed potatoes.

You're sitting next to Twilight poking at the meat with your fork.

"What's the matter Anon?"

You look over and see Starlight and Sunburst sitting apart from each other.

You feel a sense of melancholy as you look over at her.

Suddenly the lights above you flicker.

The earth begins to quake.

Rattling of plates and panicked students.

Twilight stands up.

"W-what's going on?"

Suddenly the lights go out.

Screams from the campers in the darkness.

You feel the room become cold.

Your eyes adjust to the light of the moon just in time for you to catch a glimpse.

A pale figure trails through the cafeteria.

Screams as the other campers notice it.

It makes this tortured wail as it passes.

The earth rumbles again and the lights flicker back on.

The specter seems to have vanished.

However the cafeteria seems to be in a state of panic.

"E-everyone, please remain calm!"
