Please, come in have a seat... heh, if any. To tell the truth my room is nice and plain, even the cot is not much but it is cozy and window let in a draft but is a window that let in the light, nonetheless.
The good doctor sent you in, didn't he? Yes, as you can see I'm not feeling well for the moment. I'll get better someday, it is like any storm we have in the sky. It's there to blow, pour and beat the grass on the ground but only a brief time even the seemingly never-ending ones. He told you that I have seen a giant vampire fruit bat. Oh... He's a little wrong, I've seen a pony turned into a giant vampire fruit bat!
Are you thinking I'm crazy?! You don't really believe me?! ... No? Shaking your mane meaning you're believing me? Oh... my apologies, it just that nopony would believe me. Nopony would take it seriously, they think I've gone bonkers. But I have seen her back at Sweet Apple Acres and I will tell.
I'm an earth pony of produce business from Manehatten. We usually get shipments from all over Equestria. Pears, peaches, corn, carrots, oranges and apples. Over the years, Ponyville gained some reputation having the best apples of all Equestria. It did gain my interests when my apples are green sour apples and I need more variety for the choice of apples, It seems Ponyville is the best choice to make the biggest order for a bushels of apples.
I sent them a notice for my arrival a day before. Then I packed my documents and stuff and took a train on the morrow. As soon I got there, I managed to find the farm with ease... You don't believe me? All it takes is to ask somepony then they point you to the right direction.
Anyways, the Sweet Apple Acres is what everypony would ever dream, a farm with acres and acres of delicious colorful apples growing over the hills. Baskets are placed around the trees as the orange pony bucking the trunks, vibrating the apples off the branches landed where it needs to land. I'd admire a pony even a mare with much passion of her farm, the way she kicked with her hind legs is a skill of a true farmer. Hopefully she's reasonable enough to square a deal with me.
I called to her attention then she came up to me, wiping off the sweat of her brow and warmly shakes my hoof as she greets me. I came to the subject of ordering twelve bushels of apples to be selling in Manehatten. But however I would like a bit of a tour and her sharing of her methods of harvesting, in which she gladly to.
She first off tells the history of her family raised the farm and also putting the town into the map. I can tell she's the proudest mare to be in the family that founded this town.
However just we about to start a tour, there is one thing that got me interest. I've noticed a mushed apple lying near the fence, it makes me want to question her ways of harvesting apples. I called to her attention in a disapproving way but she reassures me that her apples are the best. At first, I was about to argue but she then told me that this part of the orchard is a sanctuary to vampire fruit bats.
Vampire fruit bats... perhaps you never heard of them, they are the most disgusting vermin I have ever known. You would never keep them as a pet or even let them come near my market. The way they suck juices from my fruits would suck my business dry.... Ew. She recounts her story that took place last week with her friend, who is an animal expert suggesting to build a sanctuary. Of course, she didn't take that into considerations and wanted to get rid of them now. I share her point. But enough about them.
As half a day passed by, we traveled around the apple woods telling me all kinds of apples that they grow there. She kindly gave me a sample slice of an apple and it is what it has promised. Sweet and crunchy, sweet enough to make more bits from the shelf. With no hesitation I made an order over five bushels of apples.
You think this story is over from there? Oh... no, no, no, no, no, this is when it gets crazy. Perhaps you'll think me crazy, do you?... No?
To start, I happen to bump into a mare while we were heading back to the Sweet Apple Arch. She is yellow, and a long dreamy mane of pink. Her blue eyes gleam in apologetic gesture.
She says, "Oh, I am so sorry," in the most adorable voice. Small and timid, I bet that what makes her more prettier. But I haven't talk with her more.
The orange mare said her name is Fluttershy and she told me that she's responsible of the vampire fruit bats before they decided to leave the orchard. But her beauty flourishes to my eyes that I didn't care of what she does with the vermin.
(Twitch) Well, if the fact she stays the way she is, I would be he happiest colt of all Equestria. It all happened after sundown when I retire to my check out resting hotel room. Even by a small town standards it is not bad, by the way. It just seems I fell asleep on a rather cozy bed, if there wasn't any noise going on outside. The sound pierce my ears harshly that I should've brought my cotton earplugs with me. I looked outside and by a glowing Luna's moonlight the vampire fruit bats flutter up into the sky. It seems to me that they are leaving the orchard. Good riddance. However it seems to go on and on, and I was up about few hours; hours of non-stop screeching. Then I was about to shut the window until I saw Fluttershy strolling in the street.
What is she doing there? That is when I was about to find out.
I pulled on my robe and lighted my flashlight. Even within the cozy small hotel, I started getting the chills. My thoughts was on the pretty mare in the dead of night, walking within the shadows. My curiosity got the better of me when I head out the door to find her.
(Twitch, wink) Oh, I searched and searched all over this town... Heh... But I see no signs of her. What is she doing out here? Is she witnessing the department of these bats? Perhaps she would like to join the herd?... Heh, heh... Ha, ha.
With no avail to my search, I was about to turn back to my hotel room but then I realized this I forgot my keys... Heh... How the hay I would even forget those tiny little significant keys?! I freaked out that I would be locked out for the rest of the night.
(Tweak, twitch) You're thinking I'm going crazy from there? (Breathing in, exhaling) It gets even better.
I was about to head back inside, abandoning my curiosity, to alert the staff for my keys. That is when I heard the rustling noise. Not the wind or the creature coming to pounce on me, this sound whispers to my ears. It speaks of somepony brushing through the bushes with hoof steps tramping on a soft grass.
This is where I saw her. Fluttershy stepped out of the darkness. I was relived when I came up to her. But then I noticed something a little more stranger about her. Her mane seems rougher rather than flowing. Her eyes stares at me. But to my horror her eyes turns red, then she hissed at me showing her fangs.
My blood froze at the sight of her. Her feathered Pegasi wings melted into leather and her ears grew wider and her ear throbs thickens. The sweats pores from her brow then the transformation is complete. One minute she's a mare now she a giant monstrous vampire bat.
(Twitch, wink, shiver then he tackles the bars) You got to warn everypony. She is a mare no more! She's a monster I tell you! A monster!! Don't let looks deceive you!! Warn Everypony!! Where are you going?!! You really think I'm crazy?! I'll get better soon!! Don't you think I'm crazy!!
