The Project

In Equestria....

Celestia's sun had risen over Equestria, shunning down on Ponyville. Ponies began to awake from their sleep, except for one, who had been up all night reading a book. She lived in her castle, and she was the Princess of Friendship, known as Twilight Sparkle. She had been up most of Luna's night, reading a book that Sunset Shimmer sent her. It was a book about the human version of the City of Canterlot, and the history of it and other towns near it.

"I got to return the favor to sunset somehow..." Twilight said, as she flipped to the next page. As she continued, her number one assistant, Spike came ion. He was a small, purple dragon, who looked tired from just waking up.

"Please tell me that you didn't stay up all night reading that book...." Spike said, the grogginess was clear in his voice.

"Not all night... Just since three or four.... And this isn't the first book I read...." Twilight replied, rubbing her eyes with her hooves. "I'm just reading the book Sunset gave me, and I'm just getting to the "S" section." Spike sighed, as he pulled a small chair next to her, and sat down.

"Well, what does it say?" Spike asked, looking at the page. The first page to the next sections always shows the contacts of that section. "Wow, there aren't really that many." Twilight paid him no mind, as her eyes scanned through, looking for one she could read. One caught her eye, as she read it out loud.

"This one looks interesting. It say's "Silent Hill" That's a weird name for a town..." Twilight said, as she started to flip to the page that had the history of the town on it.

"What sounds so interesting about a town called Silent Hill? It doesn't seem that great..." Spike said, as he took a drink of coffee that he had made before coming up.

"You never know Spike, never judge a book by it's cover.. Or in this case, title." Twilight said, as she finally made it to the page with the history of the town on it. "Here it is... Wait, what's this?" She then pulled out a few folded papers. She decided to read them later, after she read what the page contained.

"Well? What does it say?" Spike asked, as Twilight began to read.

"Silent Hill started out as a resort town, but was abandon soon sometime after, due to strange disappearances connected with the town. Not much is known about the town, but now it's considered one of the creepiest ghost towns in america. Witnesses who explore the town claim to see strange figures walking around when it's extremely foggy, but it is unknown if these claims are true or false." Twilight finished reading the page, with a look of curiosity plastered on her face.

"Hm, I want to know more about this "Silent Hill." Twilight said. Spike nodded with agreement, he now being interesting in what he thought would be a boring little town. Twilight remembered the folded papers that fell out of the book.

"Maybe she left something in these papers?" Twilight wondered, as she unfolded the first paper. It contained words in bold that said "MISSING" on it. The women in the picture had black hair, pale skin, light blue eyes, a green shirt, with blue jeans. The name above it said Sarah Greenman, her age was twenty-eight, and she had been missing for a very long time in the human world, since the 80's. The last place she was seen, was at her house, just about to leave, but she was never found. Her car was found near the ghost town, with everything she brought with her stored in it.

"That's kind of sad.... She was never found..." Twilight said, her ears drooping. "Her car thingy was found near Silent Hill... Odd." Spike nodded in agreement, taking yet another sip of his coffee. She levitated the other two papers, both of them also being missing posters as well.

"That is weird." Spike said, looking at the posters. "They all disappeared, and something belonging to them was found near Silent Hill..." Twilight nodded in agreement, as she had an unsure look.

"Something's wrong with that town."

Meanwhile, at Canterlot High....

It was another Monday morning at Canterlot High, the students were all walking into the school, this included Sunset Shimmer, and all of her other friends, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash. They walked into the building, all talking about different things, like how was there weekend, and what not. They had a good one, they spent Saturday at the beach, but on Sunday, they all had plans to do, and couldn't hang out.

"I wonder what history class is going to be today..." Sunset wondered. Before the weekend, their teacher said that she'll give them a project to do after the weekend ended.

"It's probably going to be something boring. Wouldn't be surprised there..." Rainbow said, looking at the clock that hung on the wall. It read 8:35, class was going to start in five minutes.

"You never know." Twilight said, adjusting her glasses. "History can be interesting if you take a deeper look into it." Sunset nodded in agreement, as she too liked History.

"There's not really anything I like about it, though." Rainbow replied. "Just my opinion, anyway...." Her friends usually respected her opinion, so that was good.

"I think History is a lot of fun!" Pinkie said, with her usual hyper active energy present with her. Sunset and Twilight nodded with agreement, while the other's had mixed opinions on the topic. They spent the rest of there free time talking, while walking through the halls, until the bell rang for passing period. All of the students started walking to their classrooms, Sunset and Rainbow being the only one among their friends to share the same history class. They went to history first.

"Maybe it wont be completely boring..." Rainbow said, looking on the bright side. She did have good grades, but that was just she could participate in sports and what not. She still found school extremely boring, however.

"Well, maybe our project will be something you like." Sunset said, as their teacher walked into the room, after the bell just rang. The teacher was somewhat strict, but overall, was nice. After the announcements were finished, and homeroom ended, they started class

"As you all know, I said that there would be a project last Friday that you would have to work on, is that correct?" Mrs. Audra asked her class, and they all let out a tired "yes" or just nodded their heads with agreement. "What I failed to tell you however, was that this was supposed to be a pair project, meaning you can work with one other person." The class let out a few cheers, as they didn't want to work alone with this.

"Hey, Sunset!" Rainbow whispered, and Sunset leaned in closer to hear her. "We should pair up." Sunset, not having anyone else she wanted to pair up with in this class, nodded in agreement. The class quieted down, to listen to the teachers
next instructions.

"Alright, your assignment is to get a partner, and write an essay on a historical town. It can be any town, just as long as it has some sort of history behind it." Mrs. Audra said, as the class all nodded with understatement. "Now, use this time to discuss with your partner on what town you would like to do." The class went into chatter, as so did Sunset and Rainbow.

"I already got a place in mind." Rainbow said, as she pulled out a book, and flipped through it to a page. Sunset looked at the page, and saw the words above it said "Silent Hill". Sunset looked up at Rainbow with confusion, but Rainbow just had a wide grin plastered on her face.

"Why would you want to go there?" Sunset asked, and Rainbow instantly had a response.

"Isn't it obvious?" Rainbow asked, Sunset being silent as Rainbow continued. "It's a ghost town! It's creepy, and probably haunted, people that don't disappear there say that in the fog, they can see figures walking around." Sunset gave her a spectacle look.

"What gives you that idea besides the book?" Sunset asked, and Rainbow pulled out her phone, and practically shoved it in her face.

"Wikipedia says so, it also says that there was a cult that was in Silent Hill before it was abandoned, or something." Rainbow replied, as she took a loot at her phone.

"Don't be ridiculous." Sunset replied, as she let out a sigh. "I guess we can do this town... Even though there's not a lot known about it." Rainbow practically jumped up with joy at this. She was one who loved creepy and horrifying things, and she didn't just want to research the town online.

"Yeah, we should go after school and-" Rainbow was saying, but was then cut off by Sunset.

"Whoa wait, you actually want to explore the town?" Sunset asked, not really sure if that was the best idea.

"Well yeah, of course!" Rainbow replied. "I want to see it for myself, it sounds like a fun place to explore." Sunset would normally reject this, as she wasn't too big on horror, but this time, it felt different. It felt like she should for some reason, she should go to the town with Rainbow. She wanted to go to Silent Hill.

"Sure, we can go after school if you want to...." Sunset said, and Rainbow beamed with joy.

"Thank you Sunset! We should go at dark!" Rainbow replied, as Sunset just nodded.

I wonder why I want to go so badly....? Sunset wondered. It was as if the town was calling her herself.

Later....

It was late at night now, and Rainbow and Sunset were in Rainbow's car. They were on there way to Silent Hill, and Sunset wanted to share as much information about the town, not only for the sake of her grade, but for sharing the information with Princess Twilight, so she brought her book that she uses to communicate with her.

"This is so exciting for me!" Rainbow Dash said, the enthusiasm in her voice was unmistakable. However, Sunset was having her doubts that they would actually see something.

"Do you think we might see something?" Sunset asked. "I'm not really that sure if we will..."

"Well, you never know, right?" Rainbow replied. Sunset was about to counter this, when all the sudden, just as they passed what seemed to be a crashed police motorcycle, the car radio started making loud static noises.

"Whats's wrong with the radio?" Sunset asked, covering her ears with her hands, as Rainbow tried to turn it off.

"I don't know, this is brand new, it doesn't act this-"

POP

Suddenly, a loud noise came from the tire of the car, as Rainbow suddenly lost control of it, as she swerved, trying to get it back under control. Sunset grabbed the steering wheel, trying to help Rainbow, but to no avail. The car kept swerving, as neither of them were in control of it. The car got to the ledge of the small mountain, scraping against the medal part that was supposed to prevent drivers from falling off.

It broke.

The car made it's way down the mountain roughly. Sunset and Rainbow were flying all over the car, along with a few other items. Sunset felt her body collide with certain parts of the car, as they both screamed in terror. Suddenly, they were on somewhat flat ground, but once that happened, Sunsets head made contact with the dash board, knocking her unconscious. Rainbow's head also hit the tire, leaving them both unresponsive, as a thick, creepy fog began to form around their car.
