. HUSH NOW QUIET NOW
Chapter 1

It was one sunny day. All the animals went out to play in the suns warmth. It was the end of the Grand Galloping
Gala and everypony was in bed sleeping, all but one very shy pony. Her name is Fluttershy and this is where are story begins. Fluttershy paced around her house. She had a horrible head ache. It felt as if fire burned in her head. She felt like screaming after all nopony can stop her. When she was about to scream, two of her animal friends (who were squirrels) came running to her. Fluttershy remembered how she had to bring her squirrel friends back to the forest. She walked out the door with the two squirrel friends on her back. She quickly ran in the forest. Her head ache hurt so much she ignored all the darkness and scary creatures around her. She dropped of her two squirrel friends and went back to her house. She was walking through the dark forest, after ten minutes of walking she could see the day light. Oh how much she wanted to see the light. She began running at her top speed. THUMP Fluttershy tripped over a rock and bumped her head on something scaly. She got up and saw red drops. She looked at her hoof. “A snake bite” she said calmly but as soon as she said that her head ache burned. She wailed and screamed in pain. Nopony could hear her as she called for help. She dropped to the floor. She was soaked in her own blood, after all the blood was on the ground which she fell on. Fluttershy heard voices in her head “kill kill kill” they said.

She got up. Her tears streamed down her face. She began laughing, not the normal laugh but the crazy kind of laugh. She grabbed the snake and began to choke it. The snake wailed. Fluttershy continued to choke it and said “Hush now Quiet now.” With the last of those words said she broke the snake’s windpipe. She threw the snake as if it was a rock. Fluttershy walked home, opened the door and walked in to her house. Angel, Fluttershy’s pet bunny stepped in front of Fluttershy. He wondered what was wrong. Fluttershy stared at him and smiled. Angel noticed red on Fluttershy. “Blood” Angel said in his mind, “Fluttershy probably just got hurt” he thought. Angel scampered away and began to nibble on a carrot. Fluttershy went in the shower. She turned the water on and warm water came out of the nozzle. She saw all the blood wash down the drain. As she let out a sigh, a drop of blood fell from her water soaked mane in to her mouth. She tasted the blood. It tasted wonderful! She swallowed it. Fluttershy turned of the nozzle and walked out of the shower. She grabbed a towel and dried her self off. She got in her pajamas and tucked her self in bed. That night Fluttershy had the worst dream. The dream was about her hurting her friends. She woke up screaming. Angel woke up and fell back asleep. “Maybe later I will check on her” he thought. Fluttershy fell off her bed and on to the floor.  The next morning, her head hurt even more. She got out of her bed, brushed her teeth, combed her hair, and packed some snacks because this afternoon was an important afternoon. She was going to have a picnic with her friends. She ran out of the house with her picnic basket and headed over to the park. When she got there she saw her friends Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Applejack. Pinkie Pie brought balloons, Applejack brought apple pies, Rainbow Dash brought the picnic blanket, Rarity brought the plates, and Twilight brought forks, spoons, and napkins. When Pinkie Pie saw Fluttershy she said “Come on you silly filly it is time to eat.” Everypony sat down and ate their sandwiches and other snacks. As soon as it was dessert time Pinkie Pie smashed her face into the pie and started laughing, it was funny to all the ponies because Pinkie Pie was just being Pinkie Pie. Everypony stared to laugh except Fluttershy. Rainbow Dash saw Fluttershy unhappy and came up to her. “Are you ok?” Rainbow Dash said. “ I am just fine” Fluttershy answered “ Just leave me alone…”. Rainbow Dash came up to her and said “Why don’t we have some fun.” Rainbow Dash circled around the sky, flew down on the grass and started to pretend play with Fluttershy. Fluttershy got frustrated and punched Rainbow Dash on the nose. Rainbow Dash let a squeak of pain and fell down. Fluttershy glared around at her friends and smiled. Rainbow Dash took a step awway from Fluttershy then Rainbow flew of. Everypony stood in awe at Fluttershy.Fluttershy turned around towards her friends. Then she spoke in a harsh but soft tone" I am no longer a pushover anymore and what you just saw was your evidence!" Everypony looked at each other. Rarity spke quietly and said" F-Fluttershy." Twilight said nothing, all she did was stare at Fluttershy. Applejack looked as if she wanted to kick Fluttershy to knock some sense in to her. Pinkie Pie's hair went down and Pinkie began to look down and a bit scared. Fluttershy paid no attention.

Later that evening, Fluttershy began to head home back to her cottage. She felt sad and happy at the same time"
Rainbow Dash derserved it" she thought, but then she thought " but I was kind-of being a meanie mean pants". Fluttershy then came to a stop. She felt a very strange feeling. It felt as if something was trying to control her or tell her something was very wrong. She felt that if she knew the feeling and had it before. Then she remembered that weird feeling. "Insanity" she said as she ran towards her cottage to cry and think about what she had done.
