Load Full StoryNext Chapter"Sleep soundly no longer Miss Fluttershy."
Fluttershy gasps and bolts up in a sitting position in her bed. Beads of sweat cover her face while she scans the room. It was too dark to see, so she waits for her eyes to adjust. Once she could see, she finds herself looking at a shadowy figure opposite from where she was sitting. Fluttershy stares at it, petrified, afraid to do anything for the chance of it harming her. After a minute passes, Fluttershy gathers up enough courage to squeak out a frightened, “who are you?"
The figure softly laughs sending a chill down her spine. It whispers, “tomorrow we'll play," he laughs a bit louder then disappears leaving Fluttershy in a state of shock. She lies back down and tries to go to sleep, but the thought of what the figure said keeps tugging at the back of her mind. After a few restless hours her exhausted mind shuts down causing Fluttershy to finally fall back to sleep.
Fluttershy wakes up and stares at her clock, after a while she turns her head to the right to see a cup of tea sitting on her night stand. Next to the tea she sees a letter that read ~it's time~. Fluttershy looks on the back expecting a signature, but finds only a picture of an open door leading to some sort light. There was also a shadow of a pony stretched across the floor in the picture. For a moment she was surprised, “who could have sent me this tea and why?" She thinks. She shakes her head, “there’s nothing to worry about," she tells herself. Fluttershy gets out of bed, eats, and starts her morning chores.
After Fluttershy gets done with eating and tending to her chores, she leaves the cottage to see her friends. First she goes to Applejack's to help buck apple trees, but since Fluttershy wasn't that strong she picks them off instead. When she finished Applejack made some apple juice or her and Fluttershy.
During their conversation they hear Rainbow Dash yell from above, "hey you two," she flies down and lands next to them. "Do you guys want to watch me and some other ponies’ race?" asks Rainbow Dash.
"I can't today Rainbow I got work that still needs to be done," explains Applejack.
Rainbow Dash looks at Fluttershy," I'd love to see you race," Fluttershy says with a smile.
They both fly off together towards Cloudsdale. After the race, Fluttershy thanks Rainbow Dash for inviting her and leaves; while she was leaving Fluttershy finds a note which reads ~why won't you play with me~. It also had the same picture on the back, but she shrugs it off and goes to Pinkie's to bake cookies.
Once Fluttershy got inside Sugar Cube Corner she goes over to the counter where Mrs. Cake was standing. "I'm guessing your here to see Pinkie Pie aren't you?" asks Mrs. Cake, "She’s in the kitchen waiting for you."
Fluttershy nods and walks into the kitchen only to find Pinkie Pie covered in flour from head to hoof. They both start laughing so hard that their sides started to hurt; after a while they stopp and cleaned up the flour. They make so much cookie dough though, that takes them hours to bake; they didn't care how long it took, as long as they were having fun in the process. By the time they were done baking and cleaning it was dark outside. Fluttershy packs up and starts heading for the door only to slip on some cookie dough. She lands directly on her her wing.
"Oops, I guess we didn't get all the cookie dough cleaned up," said Pinkie, “Are you okay?" Fluttershy gets back up and looks at her wings, they look fine but she feels a little pain in her right one.
"I'm fine," Fluttershy lies not wanting Pinkie to worry. When Fluttershy reaches the door there was another note taped on the door knob that reads ~I'm done asking~. The picture shows the same shadow, but this time, the shadow was holding a knife. She takes a step back.
Pinkie looks at her, "You look pale," she says, but at this moment Fluttershy losses it.
She starts to panic; all she could think about was getting to Twilight's house, so she runs. There was just enough light from the moon to let her see the road in front of her. After a while she starts to tire out and begins walking. While she's walking she sees the outline of Twilight's tree, Fluttershy gets a sense of relief. She starts to pass an alleyway when a bat hits her in the side of the head. She tries to scream but she is to dazed to even move. She feels a darkness pass over her before blacking out.
