2-1: The Invisible Wall
“WHAT? It was a setup? This is all fake and I know it Twilight! Show yourself!”
Fluttershy felt anger for the first time in a while. She had never felt this angry.
“Okay, as you wish.” Twilight said as she emerged from the trees. Her mane was messy. She had bags under her eyes, as if she never slept since the game begun. Her horn was slightly cracked, and her leg was bruised. Spike followed. His eyes had a strange purple tint, similar to Shining Armour’s eyes when he was under control of Chrysalis. There was a big bruise on his chest, and many more on his arm. Fluttershy wondered if they had fought. But she was more concerned if Twilight was controlling Spike or not.
“I like the new Spike. He does what I say. But this time, he obeys my every command. How cool is that?”
Fluttershy was now 100% sure that Spike was mind-controlled.
“Are you controlling Spike?” Fluttershy asked, whimpering.
“SPIKE! ATTACK!” Twilight commanded.
Spike proceeded to lunge at Fluttershy and scratch her violently. But Fluttershy would not let him reach her.
“I’m sorry for this Spike”
She kicked him up against a tree and started to run again, not before Twilight could get hold of her. Fluttershy tried to fight against the magic, but it was starting to hurt greatly, almost as if this was Twilight’s intention.
“No. I won’t... let...” Fluttershy said as she pushed against the magic with all her strength, but it didn’t work. Twilight’s magic was too strong to fight against
“You should just stop trying. It’s pathetic to watch. Not my taste on comedy.” Twilight smirked and pulled her back harder. At this point, Fluttershy was ready to give up ob fighting against her.
So she did.
Before Rainbow Dash’s funeral, an autopsy took place. Her death just didn’t look natural. They found some wounds caused by blunt force, and even another wound caused by a broken window. A detective said they found traces of an intruder in the room after finding marks left by said intruder in the ventilation system.
It was starting to become clear that Rainbow Dash was murdered. They just didn’t know who did it.
The disappearance of both Fluttershy and Twilight were still being investigated. People have reported attempting to go into the woods but ended up walking into some sort of “invisible wall” A wall even Celestia couldn’t lift. Some feared that the two were trapped in the bubble. They were too right.
“So you gave in, huh?” Twilight asked.
“Yes...” Fluttershy replied, sounding defeated, like there was no hope left.
"Good, now you'll stay here for the rest of your life. Have fun!" Twilight exclaimed, laughing maniacally.
Fluttershy was doomed. she was unsure what to do. She couldn't do anything. She deserved to be here and she knew it. She blamed her friend for her own actions and this is the consequence. Maybe Fluttershy could have picked up her spirits earlier if she had realised it was something Twilight had done to cause Fluttershy to do those things in the Crystal Empire in the first place.
When Twilight and the other 5 ponies went to the Crystal Empire to sort out a problem that could kill everypony living in the area to do with the castle's top as there was a parade going on. But Twilight had changed that day. She was very demanding, and actually accidentally forced Fluttershy into doing those things. Twilight just refused to believe it, and made up her own story that Fluttershy did it on purpose.
Fluttershy was starting to worry if Twilight was possessed. But she just seemed so... normal, but not normal at the same time. Like the story of Jekyll and Hyde. Fluttershy thought that she should probably save the thinking for tomorrow, and went to bed on the soggy, muddy grass. It never felt so uncomfortable to be close to nature.
