Nature makes her creatures well. Even if six little fillies are lost in the forest at night, somehow, they just might find a way into the loving arms of another caretaker. Unless a predator gets to them first.
A cute little one-shot I based off the cover art. ^_^ It came to me while I was snuggling Pinkie Pie and Applejack.
I'm sorry Secrets of the Everfree is taking so long to update. I've hit a bout of writer's bout for the current section. I can clearly see what's going to happen AFTER, but this filler part is hard...

EDIT: Well, you guys convinced me. I thought this would be a one-shot, but I was wrong. I've talked to a friend, we've decided to co-write this into a full-blown story! We ARE pretty busy and can only meet once in a while, but with two of us working together, writer's block won't be an issue. Hope you enjoy!
EDIT: Norm De Plume has graciously offered to Beta the story, and I have accepted. Please give him as much credit as you would give me. His help really smooths out my writing.
EDIT: Well, it's been a while. I never did get together that often with my writing partner, and the whole thing has just fallen apart. I feel this story stands well enough on it's own, so I'm canceling any future updates. However, if you wish to use this story as a springboard for one of your own, just message me. We'll work something out. Thanks for staying with me so long guys. I wish I could've given you more.

Okay. What does it need more of? Length, Description, More Chapters?
Damn only one chapter.
It would be cool if they all grew up together as sisters slowly going into the human society just like that one fic I really forgot the name of but it is totally awesome
3006295 Length, Chapters, and story. This is good it just feels like the start of a greater story.
Not bad. Could use a bit more length, or some more chapters. I don't know how well this works as a one shot, but its your story, not mine.
I never really planned anything more than this. I also don't want to turn it into a generic self-insert. Still, i might continue on if the vision takes me. The Mane Six should be easy enough to write, I'd just need to develop a solid setting and back-story for the human. Hmm...
3006312 I believe you're refering to "Responsbilites".
My two bits: This fic is good but does feel more like the first chapter of a fic rather then a one-shot.
3007134
No the name i think is called the American girl ot something like that
3007186 Huh don't recall that one. "Responsbilities" not only includes the mane six but also Princess' Celestia and Luna as well Octavia , Vinyl Scratch, Lyra, and Derpy.
This was not a bad read, but it does need polishing. Typos and misspellings about, as do other minor but annoying errors.
The most grating error is, of course, the title and persistent reference to it. The correct term for infant ponies is foals.
aw the cute love those little one are lucky humans love animals of all kind to a default and don't follow nature complete rule.
More story please for when I got to the end I was sad.
this needs to be more than one chapter its so adorable and it has so much potential
The cover picture alone is enough to make me burst into tears. I just want to scoop them up and take them home. And anyone who does not have the same reaction deserves to be burned at the stake
Where did you get the cover picture I need a link now
3011615 I don't really know :3
I'm almost curious to see what would've happened if they weren't found by a human. Call me crazy, but...
Oh gods! The "What-if"s are already forming!
Flee! Before I have a chance to-
What if they were found by an actual predator?
NO! It's too late! Please! Somone stop my mind before it happens-
What if they were found by Proffessor Charles Xavier?
By the gods, someone just kill me before it gets out of hand!
What if the main 6 had found the basket instead?
Gaaah!!!
Needs more!
MOAR!!!!! DAMMIT!!!!!! Lol great start btw.
3011615 Found the link ^_^ Look in the description
PREDATOR! MURDER THEM!
That was cute
any update
I honestly think you should do more I'd like to see what happens after this
Plus I have this picture it's very heartbreaking isn't it
4418035 I originally intended to, but honestly, I can only write well when the right mix of emotions and inspiration hit. After that, it's no good anymore. If I tried to continue this, i'd butcher it. Besides, I think it works well enough as a one shot
4418035 ALTHOUGH you have reminded me of the arc it was going to take. :) It involved a spirit of chaos, a lonely human, the veterinarian who sometimes came to see him, and absolute pandemonium in Equestria. After all, fillies aren't just foal napped there! And Celestia knows the countdown to her sister's return is ticking...
It was a beautiful idea, but one I don't have the stamina and drive to finish. Think I had a rough draft of chapter 2 hiding in my computer though...
You know, why did you sign in cancelled? This chapter alone has the setting and feel of a story all on it's own. You can sign it as Completed and leave it at that.
5349486 I had this big idea that I was going to continue it. It was just so popular at the time of writing, I was riding a huge wave of elation. Nothing really came of it though.
You're absolutely right this story can definitely stand on it's own
but I can't help but think that this could be the start of something fantastic
anyhow thank you for this little and adorable story
Hehe I always thought it'd be funny the one to find the six fillies was a predator and when he found them just be like
"Tiny quadrupedal beings in a basket...because why the hell not?"
That be hysterical
Wow. Really pulls at your heartstrings. Not sure I'd be able to take care of a basket full of fillies. Probably take them over to a veterinarian or a farmhouse nearby. The city's no place for ponies.

Such a shame a sequel was never finished.
