Previous ChapterNext ChapterFluttershy open her eyes and see she is in a cemetery, with many zombies. She scream and run toward the exit, but the door disappear and transform into a terrifying monster. Fluttershy run in the other direction, but the zombies stop her escape.
“This is a nightmare!!! I must be dreaming!!!” she said in pinching her arm.
But she’s always in the cemetery, and she is trapped between zombies and a metal monster who was a grid 10 seconds ago.
“I am hallucinating... Somebody is playing with my mind. She think. I have to calm myself.”
Fluttershy is thinking about her pets, and her parents, Rainbow Dash, Sunset, Sunrise, and all of her friends. She smile, and the zombies and the cimetery disappear. She look around and see she is in a dark room and lying on the floor.
”A dark room, another of my fears, this is not a hazard. Somebody use a magic on me.... But who?” she thought
Long-Face appear in front of Fluttershy.
“I have underestimated you... You are not so weak than you look. But anybody have a fear they can’t face, a weakness, i will find your greatest fear and use it against you” he said.
Long-Face throw at Fluttershy a powder.
“What is that?!” she asked.
“A magic powder especially created for giving paranoia and break your willpower” he answered.
The dark room make place to a crowd, she is on a scene, and thousands of peoples watch her. Fluttershy have an anxiety attack, and try to escape the scene, but anywhere she go, the peoples always look at her.
”Oh... You are afraid of the crowds... It’s a common fear, you know, Try to escape that!” said the villain, in her mind.
Fluttershy try to hide behind the curtains of the scene, but she can’t cause her feet are stuck on the floor. The crowd start to laugh at her, she look her body and see she wear a clown costume. She try to get rid of it, but the costume stay on her skin, she fall on the floor, people laugh louder.
“Stop, stop mocking me, please!!!” she said to the crowd.
”This is so... Bad for you, you’ll never be able to face your shyness, this is a part of your name after all.” said Long-Face.
Fluttershy start to hide her face, trying to fight the effects of his magic powder. She think of her friends, her pets, Angel, Rainbow Dash and the others. She face the crowd and start to say a joke:
“What is the difference between Long-Face and a zombie? Answer: The zombie is ten time more scarier than him!”
The crowd laugh of the joke, a person in the crowd said:
“Another joke!!!! Please!!”
“What is the difference between a pet and Long-Face? Answer: No one is interested by Long-Face!!!!” she said.
The crowd is laughing very loud...
“Enough!!! Stop mocking me!!!” said Long-Face.
Fluttershy is in a forest, but the forest is devastated by the fire and the humans, she see many animals lying on the ground, dead or agonizing.
“What do you think of that?! This is the nightmare of all ecologist and animal defender. How do you will stop that?” said Long Face.
“I can’t, i know that nobody can save all of the animals or the trees on Earth, but i do my best...” she said.
Fluttershy break the effect of the spell, she is back in the dark room. Long-Face is astonished, and throw at her more powder.
“Impossible!!! She broke my enchantment! But i have other tricks under my sleeves! He said. Fear is only one of the emotions i can manipulate, now face your desires!” he said.
He use his powers to change the background. Fluttershy see she is with Sunrise, in her chamber...
“What the?!” she said.
“Are you okay, Fluttershy?” said Sunrise.
“I am not sure... Why are you in my chamber?!”she asked
“I am here because i want to tell you a thing who’s bothering me for a long time.”
Fluttershy heartbeat increase quickly and she start blushing
“Yes?” she said.
“I love you! And i want to date you! You are the most important person for me.” he said.
Fluttershy stop to blush and walk away of him.
“You are not the real Sunrise!”
“What are you talking about? It’s me!” he said
“No, you said that i was the most precious person to you, but it’s false. I am not the most important to you, this is Celestia!” she said.
The illusion break and the dark room reappear. Long Face is afraid.
“Well played, Long Face, use my deepest desire against me...too bad you didn’t know Sunrise like i do.” said the girl.
The villain throw at her a spell, but she’s not affected.
“How can you resist to my spell!?!” said Long Face.
“My sensibility and my shyness are my weakness, i know, but my inner strength and my will are unbreakable! And this is why i am stronger than you!” she told to him.
“Damn it! I made a mistake, how i could be so stupid...(he sit on the floor) I never asked to be a bad person, i was a nice guy many years ago, like you, i was always ready to help those who need it, he started to explain. I had your age, but one day, some jerks decided to beat me just for stole my money and my valuables possessions. The most ironic thing is that i helped them many days ago... After that, i was just disgusted by my kindness, i took my revenge and put the fire to their shelter, don’t worry, they were not inside it. I felt good after that, and i lost my kindness and my mind at this moment.”
Fluttershy is crying.
“This is awful, this is why you are so sad?” she said
“You are too kind, Fluttershy, one day, a person will use that against you.” he said
Fluttershy hug him. Long Face is surprised by that.
“Why do you hug me? After what i did to you.” he asked
“Anyone deserve kindness. You are not a bad person, you helped so much peoples, and no one helped you when you needed it...let my help you...” she answered.
She smile at him... Long Face look at her and accept her help.
“How do we get out of here?” asked Fluttershy.
“Punch me, trust me, this is the only way.” he answered.
Fluttershy is shocked by that.
“No! Why?!”
“Because someone have to win for leave this place. Do it, for your friend, your town, but, use that.” he said
Fluttershy took the sleep powder and throw a pinch of it to him, Long Face fell asleep. They disappear both of them.
