This is my sixteenth overall story, as well as the second Friendship is Magic story to have its events taking place during the series instead of after, and the first to be a thriller story.

On a regular day in ponyville, A new pony moves into town. Normally this wouldn’t be that big of a deal to your average pony. The town has gained increased popularity via it being the residence of the Elements of harmony.

So why is this pony so important? Well, he isn’t. Compared to everyone else, he’s just a regular pony. Rather nice, Good at what he does, and a little paranoid.

Actually, maybe he’s a bit more paranoid. Also, he always stays inside, watching the TV. And, he always wears a mask when outside. Also, why does he always carry a box cutter?

If you couldn’t tell, this was inspired by the character Brightside, by Ceramic skin studios.

I hope that I be the first one to write about this golden character.

I didn't know what I was expecting when I rushed to help an unconscious girl I found laying on the school grounds, alone with no memories. I didn't expect a mystery. I didn't expect to dig so deep into a rabbit hole. I didn't expect to find love.

On the way home, Sunset finds a girl, laid out in a field near the school, unconscious, injured, and with no recollection on who she was or what happened. Feeling the need to bring closure, Sunset decided to help the girl trace back her steps to where she found her. Along the way, they grow closer to each other. But their journey to find answers might give them the kind of answers that they won't want to hear. What was the girl doing out in the field? What was she running away from?
