Speak no evil, only breathe. Hear no evil, only listen. See no evil, only darkness... or so the tale goes.
Twilight Sparkle retires an old tome to the shelves one final time, having more than enough spooks for one night. Now with Spike away at Applebloom's, she can relax, because after all, a story is just a story... right?

Read this in the dark.

There is a thing that does not see, that does not sleep, and does not dream. It waits and ponders while it watches with bait. Tantalizing the youngest and fooling the eldest. From a myth forgotten, from a nightmare ended, he walks the forest of the cursed.

The Slender Man.

Prior to Season 3
Story two in my Twidash Challange: Dark Theme
Poem by kitten-ears11

Some experts think that Slender Mane is a type of sentient tree.
Some of Fluttershy's friends thought Fluttershy was a tree.
They are both half right.

Fluttershy's nineteenth birthday sets into motion a chain of events that makes her question who she really is. Meanwhile Slender Mane slowly closes in on her.
