	Fluttershy woke up ready to go. She was heading to Sislighterlot so that Soren could teach her social skills. She  wanted to get more friends and open up to more ponies and Soren was going to teach her how to do it. 
She decided that she would take the path that leads her through the Everfree Forest. 
"After all Fluttershy it IS morning... how scary could it be?" she mumbled to herself.
She shuddered thinking about that first the night when her friends were traveling through the Everfree Forest to figure out how to defeat Nightmare Moon. 
She continued walking. Then she stopped in front of the forest entry. 
"What's there to be afraid of?" she muttered to herself "It's morning. You can do it Fluttershy!!! " she murmured inspiring herself.
She trotted into the forest. The deeper she got into the forest the darker it got. The trees were covering the sun. She trotted farther, quickly her steady trot turned into a full-blown gallop. She was scared. Suddenly she stopped.  She thought she saw a pair of eyes watching her every move. 
She started to shudder, then giggle at her actions. "Oh Fluttershy! Stop it! Your mind is playing tricks on you." 
She thought about the night that she and the other Element Spirits traveled into the Everfree Forest. She thought about the scary trees. Then she thought about Pinkie Pie's Element.... Laughter.
"Ha Ha Ha!" she said. 
Instead of the eyes disappearing they moved closer to her. Suddenly she was knocked over by huge paws. She screamed. Suddenly the weight of the big animal was lifted up off of her. She saw familiar amber eyes.
"Soren?" she managed to mutter
"Yes, Fluttershy." Prince Soren muttured comfortingly.
There was a loud screech and a howl. The sound grew more distant and more distant with every second. 
"You're so BRAVE." Fluttershy muttered. She got up and started walking again.
