All because of the bats

by Misty Skyshadow


Prologue

One day, a pegasus pony found herself lost in the Everfree forest. She was searching for a way out, having what happened in her mind.
***
"Ha!" Rainbow dash said.
"I bet you are even scared out of your mind of your own shadow!" She said taunting.
"I-I-I." I stuttered.
"BWAHAHAHAHA!" Rainbow said laughing like a little filly.
"Fine then, the only way you are even proven fine, I dare you to go into the Everfree Forest!" She said to me.
I was so dumb at that moment, I didn't know what to say so.
"Yes." I said.
"Good. I'll see you in a week!" She said taunting.
"Oh Stargazer, what have you gotten yourself into now?" I said sighing.
I regretted ever saying yes to her.
"I promise myself, when I get out of this mess, she is so going down." I sweared to myself.
I stopped to look around, and take a rest. I sat next to a tree, and looked around more from this point of view. Then I looked straight up in the air. I stood there, still as stone not moving even one little millimeter. Up, straight up, there were bats. Hundreds of them, maybe even thousands. She hated bats. Just hated them. Then, when she noticed they were still. She ran. Sadly, the bats did the same, then she stopped. She felt a tug to go back, to the bats. Something inside wanted her to go to them, but it was her body her choice to do it or not. But she couldn't stop herself, something was trying to control her body.
"NO! Stop it!" She said.
"Why can't I stop myself! HELP! SOMEPONY, ANYPONY HELP ME! PLEASE!" Sadly she knew, right after her calls were not answered, Ponyville was long gone and far away.
She tried to flap her wings, but failed for two reasons. She had broken a wing, when she got here, by falling of a tree. And she could only control her mouth and eyes and nose right now. "Every minute, the bats were getting closer and closer, inch by inch. Then the bats started flapping over to her. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" She screamed at the very top of her lungs.
Then they attacked her, and they made a ring around her when they got to her.
"Go away!" She screamed again.

"Spike! Twilight said cheerfully. Can you come down here please!"
"I'll be right down!" He said back to her.
Spike came down in about two more minutes, carrying the broom.
"Oh sorry Spike, didn't know you were cleaning up there." Twilight said.
"Na, that's ok." He said.
"Find me a copy of the Elements Of Harmony book, please!" Twilight said.
"Alright, and why? That book is very important Twilight. Also, I thought the princesses took it back into the royal library? Didn't they?" He said.
"Well yes they did, but Princess Celestia said to study a bit more on the Elements Of Harmony. You know, just to look at them and to see if there are things we need to know more about on them." She said matter of factly.
"Oh, well, I guess thats ma- " Spike half said.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The voice said.
"WOAH, what the heck was that?" Spike asked hoping Twilight would know who or what made that scream.
"OH NO! Somepony is in trouble! It sounded like a mare!" She said.
Yet Twilight has no clue or any idea where the ear splitting scream came from. So she wanted to help but, didn't know how to help in any way possible. So, sadly with nothing in mind of what to do, to possibly help anypony, she had to go back to The Golden Oaks Library, or her home. And find a spell to find where that scream was or is coming from. She galloped back home as fast as her legs would carry her. She thought in her head that at this speed, she could give Rainbow Dash a run for her money. She bolted through the front door and Spike nearly passed out right on the floor in front of him.
"HOLY, you nearly gave me a heart attack Twilight! Do NOT and I repeat do NOT do that ever in your lifetime to me ever again. EVER!" He said to her backing Twilight almost to the wall behind her.
"Alright I won't." She said.
"Good." Spike said breathing fast.
