oh goodie!!!!

I came up with this setup with the same characters for a potential story of mine, but it was just a one-off episode in a longer tale and the events were far more drenched in crossover lore, complete with an original ending. Still, for an adaptation, this is good.

Although I will say, there's a reason the FimFiction Writing Guide suggests that you choose to indent or space out your paragraphs, specifically not both at once.

Well Diamond, this is what ya get for lying, poor Cheerilee

Always did love that poem and the animation.

You screw with the bull.....you get the horns.

I loved the original animation, which has a Tropes page, and I loved this too! Great job! It gave me goosebumps!

I guess a student is about to...disappear. Thanks to 'The Mare in the Woods'. After all, "What comes around, goes around."

I just realized the irony of it all. Cheerilee comes for Diamond Tiara after her 'reformation' and Diamond was actually remorseful for what she did to Cheerilee. I wonder what Mrs. Rich is going to do when there is finally evidence of 'The Mare in the Woods'? Her daughter's tiara, by the honeysuckles, with blood on and around it. "You reap what you sow."

I wonder why Cheerilee didn't ask for legal help from Twilight...:facehoof:

7686609 It's a one line mention near the end, but Twilight has been actively campaigning (with no success) to get Cheery her job back.

Very satisfying ending and well constructed story.

Ah, yes. This is great. I remember this story and how I love the transicion you made. Fantastic.

Ideally, Spoiled Rich is victimized later that day.

7688999 Not that day:
Spoiled Rich awoke from a very fitful night. A couple of days ago, her daughter had disappeared. The last any have seen of her was near the honeysuckles. Since then, she has been tirelessly bankrolling leading a search. This was first time she had slept since. However, as she got up to leave the room, she screamed. On the door, was note. On it, in big blood written letter was the message: YOU'RE NEXT! No sooner did she finish reading those word, honeysuckle vines shot out from under the bed. They wrapped themselves around her barrel, hooves and muzzle, then in a flash she was dragged under the bed. Her servants open the door just in time to see their mistress be dragged under. When one of them trying to look under the bed, there was nothing there. But he swore he heard a chilling whisper; The Mare is no longer just in the Woods.

7689100 Which just goes to show you - piss off someone enough and they turn into a creepypasta monster.

The Mare is collecting flowers for her garden...

Post Cutie Re-Mark:

"Starlight, is it true that you stalked a bunch of schoolchildren?"

"I did what now?"

I saw the original video and knew somebody would make an MLP version of it, with the exact characters I had in mind as well.
Well done.
