Creature of the Everfree

MONSTER! CREATURE! NIGHTMARE!

The filly had these insults forced into her mind, burned into her brain, to where they could never be erased. Even then, the insults stuck in her skull didn't keep her from galloping deeper into the forest.

DEMON! PET OF NIGHTMARES! EVIL!

She kept on tripping and stumbling on roots, but she never lost her speed. She needed to run to the heart of the forest. Nopony dared to follow her there. Nopony has come out alive from the deepest parts of the Everfree.

The cure for all poisons, infections, diseases, and more come from this filly. Being immune to poison of all kinds will save ponykind from anything poisonous, venomous, infection... The cure for life depends on you giving this filly to us for science.

She cringed as she remembered this. She was truly a creature, nothing near a filly. Pony shaped, with a long tail like a cat with a strange blob of flesh at the end that lit up when she performed her special magic. Her "wings", that were more like flaps of skin with bones inside than wings, and finally, her lack of a coat or mane. She had no fur, and skin that was the color black. She truly was a monster of the Everfree, wasn't she?

YES! I never truly wanted this stupid foal! Take it and do what you want!

She almost stumbled over, remembering her mother's response to the request. It was then that she screamed and jumped out the window. She fled to the forest, hoping to find no other pony again. The very sad thing, was that the Everfree Forest, the place of truly terrible monsters and the place where many ponies never came back out alive, was safer than her own home for the filly. The poor thing didn't even have a name.
