Fluttershy was always the shy one in ponyville... I mean sure, some other ponies might be shy but... she was afraid of her own shadow, LITERALLY! Nontheless... she was the kindest pony ponyville had ever seen... from her love to animals to being very polite... maybe that was her downfall... maybe the fact that she always obeys to pretty much anything... maybe that's why she was...well... it's a trumatizing event to say the least... that event made all of here freinds sad, depressed, they hated the person who did this to fluttershy... but... the one who took it worse was her boyfriend... you're probally wondering, "fluttershy had a boyfriend!?" indeed... indeed... they were madly in love...
