She didn’t think she could run that fast, she fled from her parent’s house without warning, running away as quickly as she could. She just wanted to get home, get back home… Back to her animals… And of course… Back to Rarity. Her stomach growled loudly, she was hungry… Very hungry… She stopped in her tracks, feeling the pain of her wings striking again. Her heart was pounding heavily as she tried to catch her breath, she could feel her heartbeat in her ears.
Her yellow coat around her muzzle was stained a crimson red as the liquid dripped from the corners of her mouth, she couldn’t believe what she did, everything felt so surreal… She licked her lips to try help contain herself,
“ Oh… No… I can’t do this, I can’t do this... Celestia sake Fluttershy just do it!!.. No! I can’t he’s my brother! You have to do it! It’s the only way to satisfy me!... Why do I have to satisfy you?! All I need is some food… maybe a salad… Fuck salads!! I want blood! Please… who are you? what are you doing in my head?.. Fluttershy, I’m you. A much better version then you to be in fact, Oh… But my friends say that I’m the best version of myself,.. Urgh! You’re so infuriating! I’m sorry… Wait… Why am I saying sorry to myself? You need to feed! There is a perfect meal right there on the bed! Just… Take… A… Small... Bite, “ Suddenly a voice broke her mental battle with… herself?
“Hey! Cry babyshy! Who said you could walk into my room?!” Zephyr yelled at his big sister, causing Shy to sink into her har to hide from his shouting, “Leave then!! Stupid baby,” The end of that sentence became a whisper, hoping she wouldn’t hear it. He turned back to what he was doing,
While she was having her mental battle, she had subconsciously walked into Zephyr’s bedroom and had been staring at him for a good 5 minutes. He has been reading one of Rainbow Dash’s Daring Do books, she then began hearing the sound of his heartbeat filled her ears. A sound that was once unhearable. She was wasting time,
Fluttershy slowly began making her way towards the bed, her stomach growled loudly. Something was taking over her and this something was hungry… This something was the other version of Fluttershy… The version she has kept within was finally coming out to play. Her eyes began narrowing, focusing on the stallion that was in front of her as he was totally oblivious of Fluttershy making her way to him. Her usual calming cyan eyes quickly descended into a deep sinister shade of crimson, two of her teeth elongated into sharp fangs. She licked her lips, getting ready to pounce, however, just as she was about to they hear somepony shouting up. This made Shy take a few steps back,
“Fluttershy! Zephyr! I’ve been called into work to sort out an emergency work issue, I’ll see you two later!” It was Rainbow Dash, who was waiting downstairs for Fluttershy, this was just what she needed,
“Don’t be a stranger Rainkins!!” Zephyr shouted, hoping Dash heard. They soon heard the downstairs door slam shut as it practically shook the whole house. Zephyr then laid eyes on Fluttershy, “Now, get out of my room!” He shouted again before turning back to his book, which would be his last mistake. The hunger hit Fluttershy hard, she wasn’t going to wait any longer, this is perfect timing. With the two being the only ones in the house. Shy broke into a run, charging directly at her brother, which prompted Zephyr to turn around and face her,
“Hey! What’s with the Nightmare Night cost-” He was interrupted by Shy diving at her brother. A lady-like scream escapes his lips as the two stumbles out of bed and landing onto the ground, Zephyr was pinned to the ground, her forehooves standing on his wings to prevent him from getting up, “what the fuck [/] is wrong with you?!”
Fluttershy didn’t answer him, only slowly opening her mouth just enough for him to see her fangs. He tried to speak, but Shy was quicker and latched herself onto his neck. She sank her teeth straight into his skin, puncturing the flesh on his neck. The rich thick texture flowed into her mouth which granted her sweet relief after just over a year of torture. Ever since Twilight ’cured’ her, Fluttershy had always felt that something was missing from her life… This was that something! Her ears went back as her brother screamed for help which only caused Shy to bite down harder, plunging further into him. Draining him like he was a juice carton, some of the blood that she was siphoning out of him began to cascade down her chin, staining her coat with blood. Zephyr slowly began to grow weak, his body going limp as Shy closed her eyes to savour the taste,
” Finally! Oh, Celestia yes!! This is all I wanted! This is wrong... Oh hush you! This is everything I’ve dreamed for, You aren’t going to ruin it! I’ve just killed my brother!! You better get used to it, I’m in charge now! You can’t tell me this doesn’t feel right! I mean… It does feel nice… Good, I’m glad you feel the same,”
Fluttershy felt tears form in her eyes as she continued to run away as fast as she could, wishing her wings weren’t injured so she could just quickly escape from Cloudsdale. As she was running around she accidentally crashed into another pegasus which in turn causes the shy mare to fall backwards, “Oh, hey, are you okay? You’re running quite fast?” The voice above her said to her as they offered a hoof for her. Fluttershy looked up to see who it was, only to see that it was one of the members of the Wonderbolts, “Wait a minute, aren’t you Rainbow Dash’s friend?” Shy nodded slowly at her, “I remember you from one of the meet and greets, I’m Fleetfoot,” She smiles,
“Rainbow Dash does talk a whole lot about the Wonderbolts… But I’m so sorry… I didn’t mean to crash into you,” Shy said as she takes the hoof that was being offered to her, Fleet pulls her back onto all four of her hooves, “Thanks…” Shy smiled softly when she noticed something… She got blood on Fleet’s chest…
“Hey, don’t worry about it. Is everything okay? You were running really fast,” Fleet asked, “And there is blood on your muzzle,” She pointed to her face which causes Shy to quickly bring her hoof to her face, she backs away from her as her legs shake, “Do you need help? What happened to you?”
Fluttershy just stared at the pony that was in front of her, silence took over her and left the two mares in an awkward situation. Although the silence was disrupted by the growling of Shy’s stomach, her eyes drifted towards Fleetfoot’s neck. ” More.” She swallowed hard as she shakes her head to try to break out of her thoughts, “I… I just want to go home…” Fleet then raised an eyebrow at the mares predicament, “But… I didn’t think my trip would be cut so short… I didn’t plan a way back down,” She nervously laughs as she lowers herself, trying to hide within her mane,
“Oh,” Fleet then notices the bandage around her, “I can help you with that,” She smiles at her softly, “If you want my help that is,”
Fluttershy thought about it for a quick second, she just wanted to go home and cuddle up with Rarity in front of the fire… Something that small could make her whole day, she enjoyed the little things in life… “I just want to get home…” Fleet then smiles softly at her once again, “If it’s okay with you… I wouldn’t mind some help to get down…”
“Of course it’s okay with me, if it wasn’t I wouldn’t have offered it in the first place,” She continued to smile at the mare as she flapped her wings lightly to get them ready for the short trip, this prompts Fluttershy to correct her posture, “Now whereabouts do you live?”
“Whereabouts do I live? Um… Ponyville which isn’t far from here… But you can just drop me off at the town hall… I’ve got some things to do and a few things to pick up for… Somepony,” She said quietly which earns her a small nod from Fleetfoot, “You… Won’t drop me, will you?” She was nervous about it, somepony carrying her? It frightened her. The only pony that has ever really carried her was Rainbow Dash, and if she included magic, Rarity and Twilight,
“I swear on my life I won’t drop you, you have my word,” Fleetfoot said towards the mare, which slightly lifted up Fluttershy’s feelings. However, she wasn’t expecting what Fleetfoot did. She suddenly felt hooves quickly wrap around her as she was lifted into the air. She let out a loud yelp, her whole body grew tense and her forehooves were thrown around her next to keep her safe. She had a tight grip on the Wonderbolt as her entire body shook. Fleet found it highly amusing and laughed it off, “I'm going to start flying down now, okay?”
“Okay…” Her voice had become a whisper as she finished the sentence, Fleet then lowered the two below the clouds, beginning their trip down towards Ponyville centre,
Much to Fluttershy’s enjoyment, the flight down wasn’t too long, ” Thankfully…” Fluttershy had stopped shaking as her nerves were calmed down by the slow descent, soon enough, however, her stomach began growling loudly, causing the shy pony to blush lightly ” Come on! Do it, coward! Oh… I couldn’t… She’s so nice… and she’s carrying me down... I don’t want to fall...Celestia sake!! Nopony will notice she’s gone! Ponies will! She’s part of the Wonderbolts… Fine! If you won’t do it, I will! “
Fluttershy let out a quiet whimper as she fought with her inner self, she began fearing what will happen if she lets the hunger take over her again… What did her evil side mean by she will? Fluttershy covered her eyes with her hooves, Celestia knows if she’ll kill another pony… She then felt pain shoot through her stomach and up to her teeth. A familiar pain she knows all too well, but it wasn’t nearly as painful as the pain from earlier that day. Her stomach growled again as her eyes shifted back to a shade of crimson. Removing her hooves from her face she licked her lips, “Actually. Change of plans, can you take me to Sweet Apple Acres?”
“Yeah, of course, I can,” She said as she quickly changed direction, Fluttershy could see the farm approaching fast, “I’ll drop you off in front of the barn?”
“That would be perfect,”
Fleetfoot landed down in front of the barn, slowly lowering Fluttershy to the ground. She smiles at her, suddenly the hunger pain strikes her again, provoking her ears to flatten, ” Finally“ Fleet turns to smile at her, “Thank you so much Fleetfoot, as an appreciation gift, I’ve got something in the barn,”
“Oh, no it’s fine really, it’s a simple act of kindness,” She said as she smiled at Shy, this, however, makes her snarl lightly
“Then let me repay your simple act of kindness with another simple act of kindness come into the barn for something special,” Fluttershy said as she walked towards the barn door, slowly opening it up to check to see if it was empty,
“If you insist,” Fleet then made her way towards the barn, Shy opened it wider as Fleet walks inside. Looking around she turned around to face Shy, “Why is it so dark in here?” Soon as Fleet finished the sentence, Fluttershy closed the barn door leaving the two in total darkness, “Um… Miss? It’s pretty dark in here, I can’t see a thing,”
“Celestia you’re so annoying! Shut up!” Fluttershy then dived at Fleet; this, in turn, caused her to scream in fright, as she made the two ponies roll back slightly. Shy yet again pinned another pegasus to the ground by their wings, “I’m so sorry it has to be this way. You were so nice,”
“Miss… Please, let’s just talk things over, there’s no need for any sort of violence,” Fleet said, hoping that her attacker would stop,
“Mmm, how about… No!”
With one swift motion, she latched onto Fleet’s throat; one last scream escaped her lips as she plunged her teeth straight into her voice box, almost like she was an apple and Fluttershy so desperately wanted to reach the core. The scream faded as she began bucking in hope that she’d get her predator off her, this was all in vain as Fluttershy was much stronger than her she had used her hind legs to stamp down on Fleet’s causing the instant break. Shy’s eyes rolled into the back of her head as she tasted the metallic liquid, her ears lowered as she knew this felt right. This has been something that has been missing from her life, something she didn’t quite know until now. Fluttershy then yanked her head back, ripping out part of her throat, causing the pony to gargle as she tried to breathe. Her eyes began rolling back into her head and soon enough her life force was taken away from her, Shy spat the chunk of flesh out.
“Oh dear me! This pony’s blood is so incredible! So rich and full of life!” She leans down and practically began drinking from her throat, using her like some sort of water fountain. “I’m going to have to save her for later,” She said to herself, licking her lips. She looked up and began to look around. Wanting to find a hiding for her meal, “Mmm, up there,” She spotted a support beam which was high up off the ground. Out of sight out of mind. The major issue, however, was that the beam was way high up, “Shit…” She then looked back at her bandaged wings, before leaving over to remove it, “It doesn’t hurt anymore, so why should I keep it on?”
It was a quiet night, which was much to her enjoyment. The earth pony walked into the kitchen as she wanted to make a slight-night snack for herself and her somepony special. Just as she got the pan out and placed it down onto the stove, a yawn escaped her lips. Which prompted a light chuckle from somepony, “Quit your chuckling at me will you?” She said to him as he walked over,
“Obviously you should have taken my offer in cooking then, since you’ve been on your hooves all day, or did you forget about helping your animal caretaker friend?”
Applejack just chuckles at him, “How can I forget, her animals practically started a riot when they found out it was us looking after them today instead of Fluttershy. They seemed to calm down when Rarity talked to them, however,” She then turns to face the stallion; who was now standing in front of her, smirking, “Anyways, last time I let you cook for us Fancy, you burned the meal and how can I forget to mention about the juice? How in Equestria do you burn juice?! Did you take cooking lessons from Sweetie Belle?!”
It was strange, Applejack would never, in a thousand years, thought that she’d date somepony like Fancy pants. The two got taking after the garden party which Rarity attended along with Twilight’s party, he was rather intrigued at the farm pony as she was digging up weeds. Thinking that it was an actual garden party. After that day, the two seemed to hit it off. For Fancy Pants, Applejack was different compared to the other mares who took interest in him, for one she hadn’t tried to get him to have sex with her or the obvious one being that the other mares who had taken interest in him only wanted to use him just to be noticed in Canterlot, due to his status of being the most important pony in Canterlot,
Applejack just enjoyed his company and enjoyed him for him. Nothing to do with him being rich or being a VIP. This is something that Fancy loved about her, “Well, I never!” He huffed, scrunching his nose while turning away, “Sweetie Belle is a fine cook!” He couldn’t help but smile, it was hard to keep a straight face. Applejack then chuckled at his goofiness
“You can never keep a straight face when you're goofing around.” She then turned back to the stove, another yawn followed closely after,
“We don’t have to eat you know,” He then levitated the pan away from the stove, Applejack followed it with her eyes as he puts it back in the cupboard, “Why don’t we just settle down for the night, I don’t know about you but I’m not hungry,”
“I don’t see the harm in that,” Applejack smiled softly as she walked towards the stairs,
The two of them had decided that they should just head to bed without anything to eat, it was late and Applejack had apple-bucking in the morning. Both of them were under the covers of AJ’s bed, Fancy behind Applejack, having a hoof wrapped around her. The two warming each other up as it was freezing outside. Just as Fancy closed his eyes, he heard, “Hey, Fancy?”
“Yes, dear?” He opened his eyes slightly, looking down at the mare
“Are you sure you want to help me tomorrow? It’s going to be a long day,”
“Positive! I want to help you, darling, I know how stubborn you can get so you’re not saying no,” Fancy then pulled AJ closer, prompting a happy sigh from the mare,
“No offence, but you’re a unicorn. Unicorn’s are known not to have enough strength to… buck the trees,” Fancy then scoffs at her,
“I take slight offence to that! I’ll show you I’m strong enough to help you tomorrow,”
AJ then chuckled, “Whatever you say then sugar cube,” She moves slightly, getting comfortable in his embrace, “Goodnight Fancy,”
“Goodnight Applejack,”
The two ponies had settled down for the night, their eyes closed in the hope that they would drift into the dream realm. It was all in vain however as the two heard a scream. It sounded close. Applejack quickly sits up, whacking Fancy’s chin in the progress. This prompts him to groan, AJ then turns to face him, “oh, I’m sorry Fancy,” The scream then happened again, AJ wasted no time in running off leaving Fancy to rub his chin,
“Wait, AJ! Wait up!” Fancy gets up, running after his marefriend. It didn’t take him long before he reached downstairs, slightly out of breath, he wasn’t used to running around so much, unlike Applejack. He needed to get used to it however, “Applejack! Darling?! Where are you?!” He made his way outside, seeing the mare stood by the barn. He trots over to her, “Applejack?”
“Can you light up the barn, please? The screaming came from here,” AJ asked him. He agreed, walking ahead of her and used his magic to make some sort of flashlight. Applejack walked beside him, “Thanks,” He began looking around the barm, “Like I said just then, the screaming came from here, it stopped as I got outside,”
As the light was searching every nook and cranny of the barn, it finally laid upon the centre of the barn. The two gasped as they saw a large pool of blood and scattered around it was yellow feathers, “Oh dear!” Fancy said as he takes several steps back, “What is that?”
“Just… Just a puddle of blood… with some feathers,” AJ said, struggling to say the sentence, trying not to gag, “The best course of action would be… Well I don’t really know what to do, do you?” She turned to Fancy, who just glared back at her,
“The best course of action… Well… It’s just a single puddle with feathers around it… Some even in it, do you know anypony that could match these feathers?” He then placed a hoof to his chin, “Maybe this somepony has had an accident, which would explain the screams we could hear,”
“Well the only pegasi that comes to mind when I think of yellow feathers is Fluttershy, but I highly doubt it’s her, she’d never travel out this far at night, let alone by herself. Knowing that mare she’ll be at her parents, which is the reason why I was out all day at her cottage with the girls,” Fancy then steps in front of AJ, “What about you?”
“None of my friends know I’m here dear, they think I’m home alone. This must be that friend of yours,” He then looked back at the mess, “We must go see her, just to make sure that she’s okay,” Applejack then nodded,
“There is no harm in checking… Alright, I’ll go get Big Mac to come here and keep an eye out while we’re gone. Just wait outside the barn and I’ll be right back,” She then runs off,
Fancy then turned to face the blood pool, “Hopefully she isn’t badly hurt…” He then began walking towards the exit, waiting for AJ to return. He has never truely met Applejack’s friends, only Rarity and thanks to her he met the most amazing and hardworking mare. As he arrived outside of the barn he noticed AJ and Big Mac walking over, he smiled softly at them, “Ready?” He asked as AJ nodded,
"Eeyup," She said, mimicking her big brother,
“Hey! That’s my line AJ,” Her brother scoffs as AJ chuckled at him. She then took off with Fancy Pants towards Ponyville. Mac sat down outside the bar, sighing heavily, this was going to be a long night
