After leaving Ponyville three months ago, you have been relaxing far away from home, waiting for winter to pass. Finally, it is warm enough for you to go home, and you know there is someone waiting there for you that you should have never left behind.

The Princesses have invited you to Canterlot to spend some time with them before the big holiday of Hearth's Warming Eve. You have enjoyed your time, but it really is time to be getting back to Ponyville. Then again, what sort of hosts would Celestia and Luna be if they let you, the only human in Equestria, just LEAVE in this cold weather!?

The first story of my December Christmas Carol writing project: this fanfiction is based off of the carol 'Baby, it's Cold Outside!'

What did you expect when a two hundred and fifty pound horse hits you at the speed of sound?

Anon shaves his head. The ponies think he has cancer. What could possibly happen?

For Rainbow Dash, seeing is believing. When her friend Twilight Sparkle told her that "electricity is harmful to humans with enough likelihood that you should definitely not zap Anon with lightning bolts", she didn't listen. After all from the two of them, it was Dash who saw more creatures zapped with lightning. Most of those occurrences were her doing as well. And so she decided to knock down two apples with one stone - teach her book loving friend a lesson about who the real weather expert is, and cure the local oddity that was Anonymous the Human from his irrational fear. Oh, and of course have a blast doing it.

Things don't exactly go according to her plan however, and she ends up creating a bigger mess than she could comprehend - not only for herself and her target, but also a certain somepony who will have to abandon her ancient traditions and improvise on the spot.

Formerly marked mature for uncouth language and the death theme. I now have an actual 'death' tag though, so I dropped it down.

Princess Luna is dead. Princess Twilight is missing. Princess Cadance is trapped in the Frozen North. And Princess Celestia...

In this new world, there are three rules:

Walk in the shadows.

Avoid the sun.

Fear the light.

Follow them, and you might survive.
