	In the depths of the Everfree Forest, past Zecoras hut and the remains of the old castle, you could hear the sounds of the timberwolves howling in pain. Laying in the clearing a dozen wolves lay unconscious but fully intact. In the center there was a black and white pegasus covered in scars, bruises and bite marks. Panting heavily he turned and walked away with a slight limp unaware that another certain yellow pegasus was hiding out in the trees behind a bush completely dumbfounded from watching the whole ordeal. 

The yellow pegasus ran as fast as she could to her friends in Ponyville looking for some advice. As she entered town she saw the book smart, purple coated unicorn, buying more quills. She yelled in her timid voice calling to her friend," Twilight, Twilight, please, I need your help." Holding the newly bought quills with her magic she turned to her.

"Oh, why hello there Fluttershy, whats the rush?" Fluttershy stopped, and tried to catch her breath, managing to wheeze out her next sentence

"need.... your....help...., timberwolves.....Everfree..... pony......hurt." Twilight just stared at her understanding what she said but not knowing what to do.

"um, Shy maybe we should go home and you can try to explain the situation there." Regaining her breath she looked at her friend with an expression that said "OK, lets go".

With Twilights' purple haze engulfing the door they walked in and sat down, facing each other, "OK, Fluttershy now that you've calmed down, tell me what was so urgent." Fluttershy got ready and started to explain.

"I was on my way to Zecoras so I could get some of angels special bath herbs when I heard a the sound of what seemed to be a pony. When I went to investigate I saw this black and white pony picking what looked like some poison joke and daisies. There was a loud crash behind him and I got scared so I hid behind a bush, when I took a peek he was surrounded by a group of timber wolves. He stood still and then went back to picking the flowers," 

Twilights eyes shot open and yelled,"WHAT!! WHY DIDN'T HE RUN, TIMBERWOLVES ARE ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS CREATURES IN THE FOREST!!" Fluttershy backed away and Twilight regained her composure," I'm sorry, please continue with the story."

"Well he just went back to picking the flowers and the wolves just sat there and waited. When he picked the last of the bunch he turned to face them, and then just nodded, nothing else just a small nod, and they all got up and started to follow him. I was so vary scared and wanted to run but there was something in the air I just couldn't explain and it willed me to follow them. We went past the old castle, the one where we fought nightmare moon, then we ended up in a small clearing deep in the forest, it was the deepest I've ever gone, then he sat his saddle bag down and went to the center. All the wolves circled him but he just stood there, almost like a statue. They were all around him, looking like they were about to attack the poor pony,"
