The Night of Unusual Frights

So let's begin...

Prologue:

“Sweetie Belle! Are you ready!” Shouted Applebloom.

Scootaloo stood next to her outside of Rarity's house, tonight was going to be the first night they went out camping alone.

“I'll be ready as soon as my sister is!” shouted Sweetie Belle.

Rarity was making sure things were just right for her sister and her friends to be out alone. Although she was a bit worried, she was also a bit relieved they may be able to start taking care of themselves more often, they just needed to prove it tonight.

“Now Remember to set up the tent close to the river, but not too close, you might fall in, or it could flood!” Said Rarity as She triple checked her sister.

Sweetie Belle pushed her sister back, and said, “We will be fine, And I am 120% sure I have everything we need for any emergency.

Rarity quickly said back “Even the..”

“Emergency whistle.” Said Sweetie Belle, interrupting Rarity. “Applejack and Big mac aren't going to be too far off, if we need help, we will call them.”

(Little did she know that Applejack more or less planned to spy on them to make sure they could handle themselves.)

Rarity sighed, and said “Alright, just be careful, alright, Mom and Dad would be so upset if you came back in pieces.”

Suddenly, Scootaloo shouted “LET'S GOOO! I will leave without you if I have too!”

And with that, Sweetie Belle said a quick goodbye, and ran Down to her Friends...

-----About an hour later--

“Did you the tent up yet?” asked Sweetie Belle

“Almost done here.” Replied Applebloom

“Now how is this going to help is get our Cutie Marks?” Said Scootaloo.

Applebloom replied- “I may not directly, but if we can prove we can handle ourselves alone for a night, we can get more time alone to search for our Special talents!”

Sweetie Belle then said- “Yes, and Time is what matter! Heck! We can use this time right now! There is plenty of space.”

“But what can we do here? In the night time?” Said Scootaloo

Applebloom replied- “Many things! Like using the least to build the most! We could use the wilderness to supply supplies for some project!”

“Maybe a canoe! Or a party style pontoon!” Said Sweetie Belle

“Well alright! Sounds like a plan!” Replied Scootaloo.

--Meanwhile--

“Always like big mac to show up, say 'eeyup' and leave me here alone to watch over my sisters, well, not too accurately I recon.” thought applejack and she set up a small camp in the trees next to were the Cutiemark Crusaders were.

“Well, I can do this on my own, Just need to stay up until they fall asleep, and make sure nothing bad happens.” She continued to think.

Suddenly, Big mac came running, and then Applejack said “Let me guess, the Timber wolves are acting oddly violent and terrorizing the edge of the farm, and you need my help?”

Big mac, panting, said “Eeyup!”

Applejack, surprised at being right, jumped up, and said “Well let's go! Wait! I better get someone to watch my sister tonight instead! I still worry they might get into trouble again! Applebloom said Fluttershy has done a good job asking care of her, maybe she will watch them.”

---Meanwhile elsewhere---

It was getting late, and Fluttershy was finishing getting her animals all to bed, tonight they were very cooperative.

“Angel! Finished with your dinner yet?” said Fluttershy. And she was pleasantly surprised he did finish in a timely manner tonight.

“Oh, good boy Angel, It's time for bed then!” She said.

To her slight surprise, Angel grabbed her hoof, and led her to the kitchen, were multiple of the critters and him made a simple stew of sorts. They have been doing this about once a month, and she never refused to try it again, despite the almost horrid taste.

“Oh, a, thanks Angel! How nice of you all to do this! [Might as well amuse him for being so good today].”

Suddenly, before Fluttershy took her sip, someone knocked on the door really hard and repeatedly. This caused her to jump and spill the soup.

“EEK! Oh my, sorry Angel, I better get that.” said Fluttershy as she headed to the door, while Angel slightly panicked.

Fluttershy then open the door a bit, then noticed it was Applejack.

“Hey Applejack Why are you here right now? Is something wrong?” asked Fluttershy.

Applejack replied “A little emergency came up, and I was wondering if you could go watch over my sister and her friends tonight.”

Fluttershy then said “Oh, well, sure, I still have some energy from the day, were are they?”

Applejack replied “Oh, they are out Camping at the edge of town bye the river, I have a small area set up there to keep an eye on them incase anything goes wrong.”

Fluttershy said “Well, I guess, I was worried they would be in the Everfree forest again. Just let me get some things and I will go out quickly.”

Suddenly, Angel Jumped on her head, and acted like he really wanted her to stay.

Fluttershy then said to angel, “It's alright, I have you bed all set up for you. I will be back right away in the morning.”

Despite this, Angel still frantically tried to convince her to stay bye shaking his head.

“Angel, I have to do this for my friend, it's and emergency.”

Applejack then said, “Alrighty then, Thanks for Helping, I have to go, but I will be at the farm if you need me!”

Fluttershy then got some things and put them in a bag, and headed for the Door, but Angel and multiple other critters hop'd in the way and tried to get her to stay with a 'road block' of sorts.

“Oh don't worry so much,” she said, “I promise I will be right back as soon as I get home, just go to bed and don't break anything.”

She then went to the door, and Open'd it, and fought a bit through Angel try to push it shut, and went out. “Sorry Angel, I have to go now, just try to calm down, I will be back soon.”

As Fluttershy shut the door, and turned around, a big chill ran down her Spin. She then looked around the night, and was a little frightened, but new it was going to be fine. Although, due to the chill, she got a little nervous something may happen. But non the less, she headed out into the Half-moonlight...

Intro note:

Well, To be exact, I have had the idea for this theme of fan-fiction for awhile now. I don't usually write much, and I am not sure I will do a sequel to this, but I had to get it out of my head the best I could. I will admit I am likely not the best writer, and you may likely find multiple spelling errors, [I had to fix spelling about thirty times for this note] But I do hope you will like this short story of mine. And I also tried my best to fit the actually characters into this, and how I thought they would react, I am sure that you may find objections to how some react to scenes in this. And my goal here is not much, I would like some people to read, and I am testing to see if I have the ability to set an environment, development, references, and meaning behind a story.

Though this has been in my head awhile, I have been coming up with ever so improving details as I read things like “My sister Fluttershy”, which is my favorite fan-fiction of this show. I also got the idea for the setting from the idea of how the group would fare in a horror-type situation, without it seaming like too harsh of a horror to the reader. I was pushed to do this though, mostly to prove you can put a new setting, while keeping it true to the original show.

This Short story will mainly serve to see if I can nail down the Main characters designs in different events, and correctly enough give them proper reactions. I may write one[or both] of two crossover fanfictions I have been thinking of, which would be longer. If this does get popular, I MIGHT write a sequel story to this, but I highly doubt my skills are good enough to get it as popular as My little Dashie. One thing though, I hope the setting and story are different from other scenarios done by others, but I have not read many fanfics, so I would not know. And please do send me feedback on improvements or suggestions for characters designs in this, as it is still in “Alpha” (I will decide based on my satisfaction on when it will go from Alpha[Still being written], to Beta[finally done with draft], to Gamma[first official released], and Omega[never need to edit again].)

Another thing, as this may hint to some big plot thing, the episode “Putting your hoof down” helped give me the first idea for this. It likely has to do with how I thought numerous times, how she seamed to be “venting” more than just having bad advice. A few other episodes that caught my early thoughts for this were “the stare master”, and “The best night ever”. I will say this, “The world put's a burden on you sometimes, but your attitude and reaction to these burdens is what counts.”

PS: I would like to thank Fernin for some helpful advice on edits and improvements to be made! [this part will likely be changed more before it is set in stone].
