Nightmare Night

"It's almost time! The attraction's gonna start any second! It's gonna be so awesome! Are you ready, Fluttershy?" When Rainbow turned around to look at her close partner, all she saw was the crowd of many other ponies behind her, Fluttershy not included. She did feel something clutching on her hind leg, shaking violently. Looking down, she found the pony in question curled up as close to her as she could.

"Come on, Fluttershy. We're not even inside yet." Rainbow waved a hoof towards the mansion she was talking about. Or rather, that was the closest thing most ponies could describe it. It seemed like a rather miniature blue and black mansion with three white stars decorated at its front. The mansion was settled at the end of a very tall hill where they would almost meet the edge of a cliff. Smoke flowed around and through it, creating shadows that looked like ponies were already inside the mansion. Those shadows even formed into monsters that were haunting the ponies inside.

"I don't know how you talked me into this!" Fluttershy expressed desperately. Rainbow bent down to her level and placed a hoof on her mane.

"Come on, Fluttershy. I told you. You join me on the Ghost Mansion Feast, and I'd agree to help you with, that." Rainbow tapped Fluttershy with a hoof on the word, 'that'.

"Oh... I don't know if it's even worth that anymore..." Fluttershy watched as one of the pony shadows got cornered by a monster with large teeth. That monster then chomped down on the pony without mercy. Her eyes shrunk seeing the shadow of that pony get chewed on. But that horrifying vision was cut short when Rainbow moved her face in front of Fluttershy's

"Don't worry. Nothing bad is gonna happen. Just look at everypony else." Fluttershy did as Rainbow suggested and looked behind her. But it didn't help matters. Everypony else was shaking just about as badly as she was. Some of them couldn't even look at the mansion. One of the ponies in the back suddenly turned tail and zipped out of there.

Rainbow scowled. "COWARD!" Fluttershy yelped at the scream Rainbow did. She was about to turn tail too, until Rainbow held onto her. She made Fluttershy's head turn to look directly into her eyes. "Look, Fluttershy. If there is danger, I'm not gonna let anything bad happen to you. I'll protect you all the way. Got it?"

Looking into Rainbow's eyes certainly helped Fluttershy's nerves. They were filled with confidence, ready to take on any scary monster that dared cross their-

"Protect?!" An evil witch's laugh suddenly came from the shadow that preyed on the previous shadow. Fluttershy's fear came back full force while Rainbow turned around swiftly. Everypony else just backed away further and gasped. "How can you protect her, if you can't even protect yourself?!"

The shadow lunged itself outside the mansion, launching itself straight towards the pegasi. Rainbow and Fluttershy yelped in fear. But true to her word, Rainbow stepped in front of Fluttershy. When the shadow reached her, she snapped her eyes closed and screamed out like she was in pain. Fluttershy cried out when she saw the shadow phase right through Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow was shaking, clearly terrified. Her hooves trembled and struggled to keep her standing. But when she realized she was unharmed, she opened her eyes. And then, she smiled and laughed.

"Hahah! That was awesome! I really thought I was a goner!" She could hear Fluttershy agonizing even more. The mansion doors opened widely like a monster opening its massive jaws. The walls between the doors snapped off like it was showing its teeth. Even a red carpet was thrown out, which looked very much like a tongue, decorated in a green slime that could very much be its venomous saliva. Its tongue slammed onto the ground, next to Rainbow and Fluttershy, which Fluttershy winced to.

"Very well! You have gained permission to enter my bode. But be warned! You will not leave with your courage intact! It will be mine!"

Rainbow was releasing a fangirl laugh while her wings buzzed in excitement. "This is gonna be the best Nightmare Night ever! I really gotta know who came up with this! Come on, Fluttershy! Let's show them our courage!"

"U-Um... I think I left my courage at home! Sorry! I gotta go get it!" Fluttershy immediately tried to run, but only found her hooves sliding along the ground, taking her nowhere. Rainbow was holding her by the tail, pulling her back some so they could meet eye to eye.

“Nothing bad’s gonna happen, Fluttershy!” Rainbow assured.

“B-But-” Fluttershy was silenced by a hoof.

“Look. Just remember. All you have to do is face your fears. Do that, and it’ll be over in a snap. Because after we’re done, we’ll be doing that. Okay?” Fluttershy’s heavy breathing settled. Rainbow was able to remove her hoof from Fluttershy and comfort her more. “Just remember that,” she repeated.

“Just remember that,” Fluttershy mimicked. She was able to smile. "It is worth it... for that.” Rainbow helped Fluttershy walk to the red carpet tongue of the mansion. It felt just as slimy as an actual monster’s tongue. Upon touching it, Fluttershy winced, but Rainbow held her close using a wing and comforted her.

“It is worth it... for that...” Fluttershy continued to repeat herself as they walked closer to the mouth of the mansion. There was green liquid oozing from the roof of this mansion’s mouth. Her eyes could only shrink watching them drip like saliva. “It is worth it for that!” Rainbow held her tighter while her voice’s pitch grew. They entered the mouth. That was when the first green ooze dropped onto Fluttershy’s head.

“IT’S NOT WORTH IT!” Fluttershy retreated from Rainbow’s grip. “IT’S NOT WORTH-” Before she could leave, the mansion’s mouth slammed shut. Everypony outside the mansion gasped as Fluttershy’s cries grew deaf. Some of them fainted on the spot.

______________________________________________________________________________

Fluttershy desperately scratched against the door liked a locked puppy pleading to let her out. Nopony answered her pleas. All she could hear was the ominous winds and steam blowing somewhere inside the mansion. She didn’t care where or how they were blowing, she just wanted out. Something brushed against her shoulder, making her jump in fright. But she settled when she recognized that warmth. Looking away from the door, she found herself meeting Rainbow’s eyes again.

“Nowhere to go but forward now,” Rainbow said. “Stay close to me. You’ll be fine,” she emphasized. Fluttershy gulped. It’s not like she didn’t trust Rainbow. She just couldn’t trust herself to stay close to Rainbow every time something scary popped up.

Nevertheless, Fluttershy managed to stand back on her own hooves. Rainbow Dash kept Fluttershy protected under her wing as they started walking. Fluttershy could already feel the tension in the air. Up ahead, all she could see was steam and a flickering light that turned different shades of blue and green. Each step closer to that light made the ground under her hooves feel less stable.

They entered the light. Rough steam blew against their hooves, causing Fluttershy to jump. “What was that?! “ she asked in a panic. The lights suddenly snapped off. Darkness covered them for a split second before they turned back on. Fluttershy hastily looked around the room they were walking through.

To the right, there was hanging from a rope while upside down, hanging over a boiling pot. It looked like a pony... a pony... without a head. Fluttershy's eyes shrunk. The very figure reminded her heavily of-

"The headless horse," Rainbow whispered. It chilled Fluttershy's body. She could hear some clanging to her left. Both Rainbow and Fluttershy turned to look. Somepony else was there, with their back turned. They seemed to be chopping something against a cutting board, going back and forth with it. There was a sound of a growling stomach, and it was coming from that pony.

"Somepony sure sounds hungry," Rainbow whispered.

"D-Do you think the-ey're planning to eat-" Fluttershy yelped when she saw the pony suddenly turn its glowing eyes towards them. It felt as if a jumpscare sound that movies love to make sounded in her ears the very moment it looked. She hastily removed herself from Rainbow's wing and dashed ahead, frightened.

"Fluttershy! Wait up!" Rainbow chased after Fluttershy, who continued to scream and run. The light and steam was leaving them as they entered a pitch black room, where the only thing visible was themselves.

Fluttershy continued to run and scream until she opened her eyes. A light flashed in front of her, making her yelp as she stopped. The light above shined down on a pony, a pony who looked very much like the one before. Its right eye, or rather to Fluttershy's right, was missing. Otherwise, it's other eye was green with a white lifeless pupil. She realized soon that it was just a white pony statue. Her heart raced at how lifelike it looked otherwise, almost as if it could come to life.

Rainbow Dash walked next to Fluttershy to examine the statue as well. "Whoa... That's really creepy." She gave Fluttershy a friendly jab. "Heh. Good thing statues don't get hungry. I wonder what-"

The statue suddenly opened its mouth. At the same time, the ground underneath them gave away. Both Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy yelped in fear from both the shock of the statue moving and the ground beneath them disappearing. Their flanks shortly hit an angled and slippery ground.

“IS THE STATUE EATING US?!” Fluttershy screamed while holding Rainbow Dash tightly. Her wings were locked up as they slid, too scared to spread. Rainbow tried bracing her hooves against the floor to settle their sliding. The ground was too slippery and steep, so this was the best she could do that didn’t involve knocking Fluttershy off her.

Something came into view. It was the first sign of light they got, which looked green and dangerous. They fell through the hole that the light was coming from. A pool of bubbling green slime came into view. Fluttershy cold only scream louder as they fell down. Rainbow Dash bit her lip as she thrusted her body back. The force caused Fluttershy to lose some grip, enabling Rainbow enough room to spread her wings and catch them both from the fall.

Both ponies were just a few inches from the green slime, which Rainbow would only guess as being the statue’s stomach acid. Well... at least that was assuming they really were just eaten. Steam was coming from the slime. They could feel the heat from it, yet they were shivering. But soon, Rainbow stopped her shivering.

“Wow! That looks so real! I almost can't believe it isn't!” Rainbow chuckled.

“Are you sure it isn’t real?” Fluttershy asked. “Because it feels very real to me!”

“Of course it isn’t.” Rainbow turned to the slime and saw how big the bubbles were getting. “Although now that you mention it, it is getting really hot in h-EEERE!” One of the bubbles bursted in the middle of Rainbow’s speech. It blasted a large amount of slime in the air, mere inches in front of Rainbow and Fluttershy.

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy held each other tightly and screamed when something emerged from that slime. It looked like a giant worm with only a mouth for where its head would be. They couldn’t see its eyes, but it had three sets of teeth on three corners of its mouth.

“What is that?!” Rainbow shouted.

“I… I don’t know!” Fluttershy screamed. The worm started sucking in the air like a vacuum. Rainbow and Fluttershy yelped when they felt themselves being pulled in. Some of the slime was also getting sucked in. When Rainbow tried to fight the air, Fluttershy attached herself to Rainbow even tighter, making it more difficult to fly.

“Fluttershy! You can fly too you knoooow!” The winds suddenly got stronger, making Fluttershy’s embrace become rough. Rainbow lost balance in her wings. Unable to continue flying, she and Fluttershy got sucked into the mouth of this giant worm. They screamed and screamed until the worm closed its mouth, causing them to black out as they were enshrouded in darkness.

______________________________________________________________________________

Some time must’ve passed. The next thing she knew, Fluttershy found herself opening her eyes and finding herself in an empty void, where only a few inches around her were lit up. Her eyes shrunk and she gasped.

“Rainbow?!” she called out, looking around in a panic. “Rainbow Dash! Where are you?!” She ran around frantically. But everywhere looked the same. It seemed like she was going nowhere. And after looking around for awhile, she ran out of breath and stopped. Nothing was here. Nopony was here.

Fluttershy gasped. Somepony was here! She heard them appear. And they appeared right behind her. Shaking violently, she turned around to see who it was, immediately regretting it. Her eyes shrunk. It was the very pony she saw at the beginning, the one chopping something on a cutting board, having only one eye.

Fluttershy started hyperventilating. The silhouette of the pony and its glowing eye, held a massive scythe in its hooves held high. It looked ready to strike.

“Give me your soul!” the pony spoke. When it readied its scythe back, Fluttershy screamed.

“Fluttershy!” Rainbow suddenly appeared as soon as her voice came. She charged directly at this one eyed pony, kicking it with all her might. But she ended up kicking it in the head. What happened next was something neither Rainbow nor Fluttershy were prepared for.

The head of that pony popped right off. It flung to the ground, rolling a few meters before coming to a stop with the head positioned upright. Fluttershy’s colors faded while Rainbow Dash shrieked.

“I DIDN'T MEAN TO DO THAT!"

Rainbow suddenly heard Fluttershy gasp and turned to the direction she was looking. The pony whose head was just popped off was still standing like normal. It dropped it’s scythe, but it was still moving, moving closer to them. Both Rainbow and Fluttershy huddled together in fright at the realization.

“T-The… T-T-The…”

“Headless Horse?!” Rainbow finished for Fluttershy. “I created the Headless Horse?!” She and Fluttershy screamed at the top of their lungs then turned tail. The Headless Horse chased after them.

But as they ran, the one eyed head of the Headless Horse suddenly appeared before them. Shrieking, they stopped and looked behind them. With the Headless Horse behind them, and its one-eyed head in front of them, they were trapped.

The Headless Horse lifted a hoof and pointed it to both Rainbow and Fluttershy. It then took that hoof and gestured it to where its head was supposed to be. Rainbow and Fluttershy flinched back. This thing wanted their heads. Fluttershy closed her eyes and cried out in fear.

“Rainbow Dash! What are we gonna do?!” Fluttershy asked desperately. Rainbow gulped nervously, not sure how to answer. She looked behind her and saw the head. It was now floating and inching closer to them. When she looked back to her front, the Headless Horse was crouching into a stance, ready to charge at them at any second.

“Fluttershy. Be ready to run,” Rainbow answered.

“Ready to what?” Fluttershy asked, but it was too late. The Headless Horse charged at them, which made Rainbow Dash charge back at it. Fluttershy yelped when Rainbow left her side. When Rainbow got close enough, she turned her body around and threw her legs backwards. A solid kick collided against the chest of the Headless Horse, knocking it back. Looking back to the Headless Horse, she could confirm that it was knocked away, and now lying on the ground. Then Rainbow looked ahead and her eyes shrunk.

“Fluttershy! Look out!” she shouted. Fluttershy turned her head. The head of the Headless Horse was charging at her, now mere inches away from her.

“Your soul is mine!” the head shouted. Fluttershy screamed stiff. She couldn’t move from her spot. This head was about to get her.

Something suddenly appeared in front of her. She opened her eyes, immediately regretting it. What appeared in front of her was Rainbow Dash. The head went right through her body. There was a line streak coming out of her body. Following that line, she traced the end source of where it went.

Fluttershy’s moans of fear grew into a desperate suffocating gasp. The head was there, but she could also see a glowing ghost in the form of Rainbow Dash in its mouth. She stepped back at the sight with her legs shaking violently. Her chest practically bursted out of her body with each breath. When Rainbow’s lifeless body fell to the ground, Fluttershy screamed.

The head released Rainbow Drash from its mouth. Rainbow opened her eyes and gasped. She could still hear Fluttershy's screams of terror. When she looked to her, she felt like screaming just as loud. Fluttershy was there, crying, holding... her own lifeless body. But... she was Rainbow Dash. Why was she...

Rainbow looked at her hooves, screaming internally. Her body was white and glowing. She was a ghost now.

"NOOO!" Rainbow finally screamed out.

Fluttershy yelped again. Something stood before her again. It was the Headless Horse, and it had its scythe back. Her breath stuttered as she held the body of Rainbow Dash close. The Headless Horse readied its scythe, making her pupils shrink to pea-sizes.

"Fluttershy!" Rainbow shouted as her ghost body flew down towards them. She flew as fast as she could to stop the Headless Horse from swinging that scythe. But when she reached it, all she did was phase right through it.

"What?!" she asked. The moment she looked back, the Headless Horse swung its scythe. Rainbow braced her cheeks and released another scream. She saw both her own head, and Fluttershy's head get flung off their bodies. Their bodies fell to the ground while Fluttershy's head was caught by the Headless Horse. It then proceeded to attach the head to its body, giving it a good twist to keep it in place.

Fluttershy's face then grew a smirk. Her eyes opened, but it was not her eyes. They were glowing, just like that floating head. Speaking of, the floating head had floated over to Rainbow's body and attached itself to her. Rainbow's body then proceeded to move its legs towards the head, giving it a good twist to keep itself attached. The ghost of Rainbow Dash quickly looked to Fluttershy's headless body in a panic.

"Fluttershy!" she yelled as she rushed to her body. "Come on, Fluttershy! Get up!" Rainbow pulled at Fluttershy's hooves, but they just phased through. Instead, she was pulling something else out. Her ghost hooves were holding onto another ghost hoof as she pulled it out. She kept pulling, pulling, until the ghost of Fluttershy was pulled out of her body to meet her.

"Wake up! Come on!" Rainbow repeatedly tapped on Fluttershy's cheek. Her eyes opened in response, followed by a yelp.

"R-Rainbow Dash?!" She removed herself from Rainbow's grasp and screamed. "What happened?! Where are we?!"

"Look!" Rainbow Dash pointed a hoof. Fluttershy looked to its direction and saw two ponies releasing an evil laugh. Her eyes shrunk. She noticed that those bodies had her head and the other had Rainbow's body.

"Now that we have your bodies," one pony started.

"We will spread fear all across Equestria!" the other one finished. Their voices were the same, sounding just like that one-eyed pony. They started running off into the void.

"Rainbow! What's going on?! I thought this was all supposed to be fake!"

Rainbow moaned nervously. "I don't know anymore. But we can't let them get away!" She started flying after them. Fluttershy stayed behind, nervously pouting and shivering. After a few seconds, she followed Rainbow Dash. Where they were going, they had no idea. Somehow, they could see their bodies perfectly, but everywhere else was just a void. Their possessed bodies continued running through this void as if they could see where they were going.

Suddenly, a bright light emerged. Their bodies entered it. Rainbow and Fluttershy followed suit. When they crossed the other side, the night time air came to their visions. They gasped, finding themselves outside the mansion, where everypony else was waiting. Both ponies could be seen staring at the crowd. The entire crowd looked terrified. But they weren't looking at the ponies below. What they were actually looking at, was Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, their ghost souls. All of them screamed.

"Ahh! No! It's not what it looks-" Rainbow was cut off.

"Behold!" The mansion behind them was speaking. "I have taken their bodies, and their souls! Soon, all of your delicious souls will belong to me!" The crowd started fleeing the scene. Fluttershy started holding Rainbow's ghost body tightly.

"Please! Make it stop!" she pleaded. Now not only was she terrified, she was striking fear on everypony else.

"Come to me, my delicious souls!" The mansion started inhaling the air around it. Rainbow and Fluttershy yelped as they felt their ghost bodies getting sucked in. The two ponies below were laughing as they let their stolen bodies get taken back into the mansion.

Rainbow and Fluttershy held each other tightly as they were sucked in. They were forced back into the mansion. But they didn't stop there. Their ghost bodies continued getting pulled in, going deeper, and deeper inside the mansion. After a moment, Rainbow managed to open her eyes. She saw their bodies, the remains of their bodies being sucked in as well and near them. Her head was there without its body, and Fluttershy's body was there without its head.

“Into that body. Now!” Fluttershy hesitated, but did what Rainbow told her. Rainbow followed suit.

“Wait! Both of us?!” Fluttershy asked just before their ghosts phased into the body. After the body shined, it moved its legs, grabbing the head and attaching it to its neck. Rainbow’s head was now connected to Fluttershy’s body. When it opened its eyes, they revealed to be blue instead of magenta. It gasped and turned its head to look its body over.

“W-Wait a minute!” the head spoke in Fluttershy’s voice. “I’m in control of your head?” Her body wobbled out of her control. Something spoke in her head.

And I’m in control of your body.” It was Rainbow Dash’s voice.

“And my mind?!” Fluttershy responded.

"Um... I don't think so." Fluttershy yelped when Rainbow ignited the wings of their conjoined bodies, trying to take flight. "It's just the only way I can talk to you." Rainbow seemed to struggle using Fluttershy's wings as the flight was rather wobbly at first. Their body even fell down for a bit before gaining some balance.

“Rainbow! What are you doing?!” Fluttershy asked.

Fluttershy! Look straight!" With a gasp, Fluttershy did just that. When she saw she was heading straight for a vortex, she winced and closed her eyes. “I can only see what you can see. Open your eyes!

Fluttershy refused. “But it’s too scary!”

Face your fear, Fluttershy!” Fluttershy hesitated. “Look at them!” One of her eyes opened slowly. She could see the vortex, but she could also see the two ponies in front of it, laughing, using their bodies. “If you keep hiding behind your fears, they’re going to get away. Keep looking at them.

Rainbow ignited Fluttershy’s wings again, flying faster towards the vortex that was sucking them in. Fluttershy could only respond with a yelp as she shut her eyes again. Blinded once again, Rainbow’s flight pathed wobbled again and was going off course.

Keep looking at them!” Rainbow repeated with more emphasis. “Face your fear, Fluttershy! I know you can do it!

Fluttershy’s eyes winced open. Tears obstructed her vision. She tried steeling her nerves harder, slowly allowing her eyes to open more. It was enough for Rainbow Dash to see where she was going again. Their body was able to fly towards the two ponies again. The closer they came, the harder it was for Fluttershy to not look away or close her eyes.

They were all getting awfully close to the vortex. The two laughing ponies suddenly stopped laughing and gasped when they saw their victims charging at them.

“What?!” both ponies said. At the last second, Fluttershy winced and looked away. Their hooves collided with both their bodies, knocking both of them on their backs while Rainbow and Fluttershy towered over them.

Now! Out of this body and into theirs!” Fluttershy hesitated when Rainbow said that. But when Rainbow forced her ghost out of the body, Fluttershy found herself being dragged along with her. Now they were both floating in the air, looking down at their possessed and pinned down bodies.

Fluttershy gulped, but she steeled her nerves again. They had to get their bodies back, and this was the only way how. When they saw her face, both bodies grew fear on their faces. Meanwhile, everypony was just inches away from being sucked in the vortex.

“Y-You’re… You’re no longer afraid?!” they said in unison. At that mention, Rainbow and Fluttershy threw their ghost bodies at their possessed ones. As soon as they made contact, the vortex sucked them in. Everything flashed at that moment.

Silence followed. Darkness followed. Feelings disappeared. For a moment, everything was non-existent.

______________________________________________________________________________

Rainbow Dash moaned as she opened her eyes, still hearing the faint echoes of silence, if silence somehow had a sound. Her eyes caught vision of the night sky. Blinking harshly, she picked herself up to get a better look. She was outside the mansion. To her left, she heard whimpering.

“Fluttershy,” she whispered as she turned her head. Fluttershy was there, curled into a ball while trying to hold back tears, failing to do so. Rainbow rushed to her. “Fluttershy. Wake up, Fluttershy.” Her voice was quiet as she tapped Fluttershy gently.

Fluttershy released a gasp as she opened her eyes. She was about to panic, but her eyes met with Rainbow’s. Looking into those protective eyes calmed her nerves, but she was also taken by surprise.

“R-Rainbow Dash?” she asked. “You’re…” Rainbow helped Fluttershy sit up. “You’re back to normal.” Hearing that, Rainbow’s eyes widened as she looked at her hooves.

“Hey, you’re right,” Rainbow responded. “And you are too.” Fluttershy looked to her hooves as well, finding the results both stunning, and relieving.

“Does that mean… it’s over?” Fluttershy somewhat held her breath at that question. Rainbow turned around. They seemed to be inside the edge of a large cliff with a carved out cove in the walls. She and Fluttershy walked closer to its edge to view the night air.

“Looks like it,” she answered while turning to Fluttershy with a smile. Fluttershy released her breath in relief as she dropped her head towards Rainbow. Rainbow caught Fluttershy and embraced her in a hug that warmed both their hearts. The fear had left them both, Fluttershy being far more relieved.

“That was so scary, Rainbow Dash,” Fluttershy muttered. “It all felt so real. I thought we were in danger.”

Rainbow chuckled. “I know. But you wanna know how to tell that it wasn’t real?” Fluttershy just responded with a confused look. With a boop to the nose, Rainbow answered. “Because we didn’t feel any pain. Did we?”

Fluttershy blinked as her nose was booped. When Rainbow removed her hoof, it left behind a smile on Fluttershy’s face. “You’re right, Rainbow.” She giggled as she gave Rainbow a hug. “Even when we lost our heads, I didn't feel any pain. You were right all along. All we had to do was face our fear.”

Rainbow returned the hug, but blushed in embarrassment from being reminded what she told Fluttershy earlier. “Yeah… heheh.” When she told Fluttershy that, this wasn’t exactly what she meant. But it worked. “Hey! Now that it’s over, we get to do, that.”

Fluttershy gasped, internally excited. “Ooh! You’re right!” She nuzzled underneath Rainbow’s chin. “I’m looking forward to it.”

Rainbow smiled and wrapped a wing around Fluttershy. They did what Rainbow wanted to do. Now it was time to do what Fluttershy wanted to do.

Something just dawned on Rainbow Dash. Removing herself from Fluttershy's side, she walked to the cliff's edge and looked up. This was the same cliff that the mansion was at. But from what she could tell from this view and the lack of sound, the mansion was gone.

"What is it, Rainbow?" Fluttershy asked as she walked to Rainbow's side.

"Huh..." Rainbow responded. "When they said a haunted attraction for two, did they literally mean only two?" When the words sank in, all Fluttershy could do was blush.
