the 5 elements of harmonyView OnlineShythe 5 elements of harmonyChapter 1 "pinkie left yesterday" *sob* "Why?" "I don't get why your so upset shy" "It's not like pinkie to just leave without saying goodbye, and besides what if we need to access the elements again?" "Maybe she didn't leave on her own accord." "DASH! there will be none of that! I'm sure she's just fine" It all started after the reign of discord. The elements may have been able to seal, and free him but...... The elements aren't some godly artifact that can be used as a safe line. I haven't been telling the whole truth. I don't remember the last time I really have......... "We should listen to rarity" I timidly suggested "It's not like her to just leave us" "Lets just let this blow over, and catch some rest, I need to herd the rain clouds over to the apple farm for AJ tomorrow." "Alright lets meet at sugar cube corner tomorrow." "uhh clouds?" Rainbow said annoyed "after your business" Twi said just as annoyed back. I turned, and, with regret, headed home knowing what was going to happen that night, a tear glistening in the rising monument of Luna. ~---~ "Just like the others" she said, a tear running down her cheek, as her once lively home was filled with the eerie drool of darkness. The critters where hiding, they always did. There was no other way. "Please" Fluttershy cried. There was no sound in the world that could make it to her already made up mind. Her cutie mark suddenly glowing, then vanishing. She was on the ground now, grinding her teeth together in the reething pain that swept over her. Wave by wave, pulsating. She wanted to let her mind go, but she knew that any second now it would end, and she would dream of the circles that tormented her fragile mind. "hello? Please, Please stop!!" "Why would you fight me?" "Because this is my body, my body!" "I'm terribly sorry if you feel as though we are intruding you, but... Mhmmmmhmm, you don't really have a choice" "I do! I can fight you!" "And that's why the pink one left, isn't it?" *sob*"please just stop" "I'm sorry my precious Fluttershy, but we've come to far to stop now." ~---~ . I didn't know if I was ready for the day. "Hmm, I fed angel, and fluffed his tail.". I bit my lip lightly in thought "said bye to the rest of the critters". I smiled, ready to head out the door when my eyes suddenly fell upon the pile of glass, and bright red liquid near the door. "Oh, I almost forgot". Something like this always happened, and was one of the reasons I always dread the mornings. I sweeped up the remains and mopped the liquid, and, like always, discarded everything. "All right, time to head out" I began trotting down the path t'words ponyville. I was so unusually happy, I just had to, sing, or something. I began to trot rhythmically to pinkies smile song as I hummed the chorus. My smile furthered as I thought of the fluffy pink mare. "She will be missed". I continued down the path, now more timidly as I reached civilization. The usual, "hello" from him, and, the "how do you do?" from her, and always the timid cute response from me. I let out a pleased sigh as I first felt the rays of warm sun on my flank. "Hey Fluttershy!" I jumped a little at the sudden separation from my own thoughts. "oh, hi dash" "Are you going to meet me, and the others at sugar cube corner?" "I thought that you had to help A.J with her rain clouds" "I woke up early to get it done" "Early?" I became lost in the thought "Well, ok. I Will meet you there." I finished as the cyan pegasus turned, and took off, leaving me to, once again, explore my own thoughts. "early?" I said to myself over, and over. I mean this is Dash we are talking about. "early???" the thought began to plague me. "shy!" Again I jumped as my head jolted to the left to see Twi standing at the entrance' of sugar cube corner. "You just going to walk right on by?" I looked around, and noticed I had already trotted straight into the heart of Ponyville. I went a little cross eyed as my sense of direction slapped me. "shy?" "S-Sorry, lost in my own thoughts" "isn't it a bit too early for that?" "early?" "never mind, lets just get inside" I entered to see a slightly distraught looking Mrs pie. We talked to her quite a bit, but couldn't unearth any relevant info. The rest of the meeting was lack lustre, and, to be honest, I was half asleep. I was tired after all, I mean if you had..... ugh, a sick taste rolled over my tongue as i thought of IT. "Oh Fluttershy, while we are here would you mind being a darling, and lending me a little of that fine Everfree forest gem dye you made the other day?" "Oh, I'm sorry, but..... I had a little accident, and it kind of got, mopped up...." I frowned and remembered this morning. I spent a good hour collecting the ingredients for that dye, and I couldn't possibly ask Zecora to help me collect them again......
Dieing inside?View OnlineShyDieing inside?Chapter 2 Here I find myself once again, walking down the dirt road towards the Everfree, and my own little cottage. I looked down to see the lightly bouncing shadow of my saddle bag, filled with carrots, and a bottle of fine "lemon grass ale". I smiled, after all there was a party tomorrow. I stopped suddenly in my tracks, and looked up to the setting sun. "tomorrow", I frowned, and suddenly felt feverish, and decided to pick up the pace, and soon found my self in a full gallop to get home, cursing under my breath after every throb of my headache. ~---~ The door of the cottage opened with a light squeal, the small dark outline of a anxious angel awaiting his owner to return. "A-angel what are you doing up?!" she said worryingly. "go to bed!". The bunny hopped up the stairs and into the veil of the blind, and Fluttershy, with a burst of haste, turned the corner to the kitchen. Drawers were opened, and slammed. The once elegant Pegasus staggering around the corner, and bumping into the couch, fell to the floor limp...... and then she got up, and turned the corner. ~---~ "Hello? Please, please stop!" "Why would you fight me?" "Because this is my body, MY BODY! you can't just use it like this!" "I'm terribly sorry if you feel as though we are intruding you, but, mhmm you already agreed to this, you don't really have a choice." "I do, I can fight you!" "And that's why the pink one left isn't it?" *sob* please just stop, what are you gaining from this?" "I'm sorry my dear Fluttershy, but we've come to far to stop now, and, besides, it's almost done." ~---~ I woke up, rubbing my cheek against my warm pillow, a nice change from the usual hard floor I have become so accustomed to. I stretched my legs, and rolled over to see my clock. "10:00 A.M" It was early, and yet, I felt so refreshed. "What a great sleep" I chirped to myself. I carefully made my way down the stairs, and was even happier when I noticed nothing in the foyer was broken, or out of place. My smile turned however, when I went in to the kitchen. The bottle of ale I bought had a been placed on the stone counter top with a small yellow post it note on it. Have fun at the party Shy It was in my own hoof-writing. I frowned, tossing the note into the garbage, and sticking my tongue out because of the excessively bitter taste it left. I turned around again to pick up the bottle, and carefully tossed it into the bottom of my saddle bag. I sighed when I saw my pair of scissors lying behind it with yet another note. Is this scaring you yet? Shy I turned, took a deep breath, and "FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! REALLY!?!?!? REAL MATURE!" I shouted to the invisible representation of shy that I had made up in front of me. I was debating lingering in the fit I was in until I heard a small yawn from behind me. "oh, hi angel, did I wake you?" I asked the bunny in my now timid voice. There was something off about him, he looked, annoyed. He hopped up to his room, and upon entering I saw a couple of thin strips of paper. How About NOW? I felt ready to tell off, well, I suppose myself, once again, but a small white bunny hugging my leg allowed me to swallow it. "I'm sorry angel, only a few more days, ok?" He looked up at me, a small bit of tear's glistening in his eyes like diamonds. "I know you are frightened, but your a brave bunny, just hang in there" I tried to smile, but couldn't as I noticed my own face in the reflection of the window. ~---~ I had a pleasant walk to Ponyville today. I passed Zecora, and we had a lengthy conversation about the spill't dye. It ended with the agreement that Zecora would collect some of the ingredients for me as long as I could get Rarity to make her a new cloak. "Please nothing fancy for me, just something I can bear to see" I nodded, and trotted away, continuing to ponder some of the mystery's of yesterday. "Rainbowdash waking up early?"........ "or dashie not being able to sleep lately" I suddenly felt the urge to find answer's, and had decided to take to the clouds (even though I really didn't exactly like being in the clouds). It took some time, but after awhile (and many thanks to twi's magic "cloud in a bottle") I had slowly ascended to cloud level, and it didn't take long before I had found just the pony I was looking to find, for, maybe 10 feet in front of me, was a small, curled up cyan Pegasus, taking a nap. I had to smile at the sight, I had never seen dash this relaxed before. *sigh* It almost reminds me of myself, before all of the trouble Discord had caused for me in the long term. Hell, for all of us in the long term. I was about to call out, but, she was so, ehhhh, cute. I didn't want to wake her from whatever paradise she was putting herself into through slumber, and decided to just go see Rarity about the cloak. ~---~ *knock knock* "Oh darling, how do you do?" "oh I'm fine" I ensured, as I welcomed my self in, and explained the situation. "Oh my, of coarse I can make Zecora a new uhhh "cloak" " She hesitated with the terminology "Fluttershy dear, look at your mane, it's all disheveled, and stressed! You must be dieing inside for a trip to the spa, why don't you come with me later?" I noticed Rarity fake the best "genuine" smile she was capable of. Dieing inside, huh, I like that term, one can only hope to just die, but dieing is as far as Fluttershy will take us. Dieing, a state in which one can only hope to die.
I'm so sorry......View OnlineShyI'm so sorry......Chapter 3 "Hey, Fluttershy........ Fluuuuuutershy, I know you can hear me. Listen, Fluttershy, can you hear it? Can you hear me? Listen......" "Fluttershy?" "wah?" I suddenly snapped back into reality. "O-oh, sorry Rarity" I rubbed my eyes, and, sluggishly made my way out of the tub, feeling a bit unsteady, and struggled to keep my balance. "I know it's relaxing dear, but, I don't think you should fall asleep inside........... Are you all right shy? You don't look too well......" "H-how so?" I said, now placing a hoof on my warm forehead. "You look, pale, and, your mane even seems to be somewhat, discoloured" I didn't protest the now approaching Rarity with a look of true worry in her eyes. "My, my darling you look awe full, why don't you just stay at my house for awhile?" I looked confused at her until I realised I was now in the designer's room of her house. "No! NO!" I thrashed away from her, and looking out the window, saw that the sun had hid it's face, and the moon was rising relentlessly over the distant mountains. I started to panic "N-no I have to get to a party!" "Dear, the party was a week ago...." "W-what?" I started to sweat profusely. "This can't be happening, not here, not now!" I cracked..... "Shy calm down! Darling Please!" "NO! Don't call me that! we aren't the same pony!!!!" I protested, a tear running down my cheek, and the fear of the approaching nightmare coming. "What are you talking about dear?" "Please, leave, I can't stop him. PLEASE!" I tried desperately to get out the door, as I fumbled hopelessly with the knob. ~---~ I galloped, and never stopped, running from myself, huh, that sounds funny doesn't it? Oh well, I can just go home, have a nice rest, it will all be fine. Then tomorrow I can spend all day with angle, go see Berry Punch wish her a happy birthday! Maybe hang out with Rainbowdash! Look for Pinkie! TALK WITH TWILIGHT! wait . . . . . . "Rainbowdash......." "Oh Celestia, if she has what I have? NO! That's not what's happening. Tomorrow I can fix everything. Just one more night! Just like my promise to Angel." I looked around to see the green hills, and gentle tree's "EVERYTHING IS JUST FINE!" I screamed, now fully crying. The thoughts of giving in, and standing strong and sturdy against.... him . . . . . . . . "Not in your house are you shy?" No, everything is not fine. Please! *thud* ~---~ "Hello, please, please stop!" "Why would you fight me?" "Because this is my-.........." "Wait, something's not right......." "What the hell?!" "This.....S-something.. is not.... right.." I opened my eye's, and rubbed my forehead with my hoof. "Blood...." I looked over to the puppeteer. "Wha-what did you do?" "Oh my celestia, I-i'm so sorry" "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!" "I-I think, this isn't how this is supposed to happen!" "please, don't move!" "NO! AHHH! OW!" I began to cry as I felt the cold steel pass through my flank, and rip through the other side "OH CELESTIA! OH LUNA! PLEEEASE!" Constantly The burning, and stinging sensation filling my eyes with the ever approaching face of mortality. "Please,I don't want to die." I screamed as the blood ran down over my eyelids. "N-no, I'm sorry! Stay with us!" I opened my eye's with no emotion so see him covering his eye's with his hands. I whispered "I don't want to die, not yet." ~---~ So I guess that this is how it ends..... I can't change this, I can only tell the tale now. Where to begin? *sigh* How about my birth? Or the list of my dolls? Lets keep this simple, I don't deserve to brag on this job.......... Let's go back to 2007.
