Slenderpony
Be warned
A young teenage filly is laying on the ground unconscious, in the middle of the dark forest. The big full moon is somehow not shining through the forest. It was just pure darkness.
The filly has a lime green coat and yellow mane and tail. She is an earth pony. Her name is Grassflower.
She woke up, feeling the ache of her bones. When she open her yellow iris eyes that match her mane and tail, she see a big full moon. She then shot up from her slumber and look around. But all she could see is trees that are close to her.
"What's going on? How did I get here?" While she starting asking question to herself. She suddenly feel something hard. She look down closely and saw a black stick with a funnel. She touch it and accidentally press the button that made a clicking noise and light came out of the funnel. It is a flashlight.
she jumped up in fright and squealed. She looked at the light where it was shiny at. The light is dim and narrow but she could see the trees better. She then see a small saddlebag and a note that someone or somepony wrote. She hesitantly pick up the flashlight from her mouth and point at the note from the ground. She then reads it.
It said "If you want to make it out alive, you must collect eight pages, but be warn. The more you collect the page, the better he comes." She began to panic.
"Who is coming? I don't want to do this, get me out of this." She whimpered. Few minutes of crying, she stop crying and felt the courage to do this. So she looked inside her bag and saw nothing inside. She put the bag on and strap it and began to trot with the flashlight.
She scanned around the area and notice that she is in the open area that have the pathway. While she is trotting, she see trees swaying, she hear crickets chirping and trees rustling.
Suddenly, she see a very large tree. Bigger than the trees that was surrounding her.
She trot towards it and see a white figure. As she got towards the figure, it is just the page. She looked side to side and then back to the page.
When she is close enough, she looks at it. On the page, it has a drawing. It has trees that look like the forest and a pony figure. She was curious of the pony figure.
When she took the page off the tree (1/8) and put it inside her bag, she heard a faint crunching and rustling noise. She look back and see that there is nopony. Suddenly, she started to breathe a little heavy.
While she is trotting along the path, she started to feel like she is being followed. She stop trotting and turned around. Again, she looked side to side. She then turned back around and continue trotting.
Two minutes of trotting. She see a rusty metal wall that is tall like the tree from before. The problem is, it's in the forest. She slowly trot in the forest and went around the metal wall. She finally found the page.
She went closer to the page and see a figure of a pony that has no eyes and no mouth. Someone or somepony wrote and said "No eyes, but watches you."
A wave of fear went through her body when she reads it. She quickly took the page (2/8) and went back to the path. She put the page in the bag. She suddenly feel like she is being watch.
Her body is shaken. She is too scared to do this. But she has no choice. So she continue trotting. But this time she constantly looking back and around. But she found nothing suspicious.
One minute of trotting. She found a half sewage pipe. "A sewage pipe, there must be a page in there and a bathroom. I don't think I can hold it no more." She said.
Soon, she went towards the front of the entrance and stood there. She could see the opening at the end but it leads to the forest.
She then, went inside to find the paper. She went in deeper. She found the page. It is at the side of the wall. She looked at the page and reads it.
It said "HELP ME!" She stood there and thought. "That doesn't sound good." She took the page (3/8) and put it inside her bag. She turned around to exit where she came in when suddenly she jumped and scream in a high-pitch voice. She drop her flashlight. Then she accidentally unleashes her urine, letting all of it out. All she did is stared at a pony that has a black coat but, the head is all dull white, very dull. The pony is wearing a suit with black tie. The pony has no mane but has a fizzy tail that is black. It also has no eyes and mouth. All it's doing is just facing her like it is looking at her, but without eyes.
While she stood there frozen, her vision started to disorient. "No no no no." She backed up stepping her own puddle of urine. She turned around, picked up her flashlight and galloped out of the sewage pipe and into the forest.
While she went through the forest, she looked back and could see that the pony is following her.
Soon, she found an opening. She got out of the forest but ended up in a path. She look to the right and see a wooden broken down wagon, not to far. She turn to look to the left and see a path to whatever it leads too. So she took the right.
She went straight to the wagon and quickly search for the page. She found the page and quickly reads it.
All it said is "NO" everywhere and a pony figure in the middle.
She looked to her right and saw a pony facing her in the middle of the path. She quickly took the page (4/8) and put it inside her bag. She looked to the right again and saw the pony came closer, still facing her.
"Get away!" She then galloped out of the area and followed the path. Suddenly, she started breathing hard, and became too scared to look back. Her body shook violently due to her frightness.
Three minutes of trotting, she found a building. She looked over her shoulder and see no pony. She turned around to find the pony. Suddenly, her vision disorient to a quick second. She flinched. Then she see something white sticking out of the tree. It is the pony.
She squealed, almost dropping her flashlight. She got her grip back but she notice the pony disappear. She started breathing heavy.
She turned around to face the building. She see an entrance. It is dark inside. She point her flashlight. Still dark, not enough to bright the inside from far.
She decided not to go inside, so she turned around. But then she jumped and screamed, seeing the pony standing in front of her, not to far but close.
She turned around and galloped inside of the building. She pushed herself against the wall, feeling a doorway. Then felt the corner. She put herself in the corner and cuddle herself. She started to cry.
She then notice, she forgot the flashlight that she dropped. Now she is in the corner, alone in the dark.
Suddenly, she hear something rolling down the hallway. By the time it went in front of the doorway, it stop. It was her flashlight, still on. She stood there staring at her flashlight that is shining at her. She then, wiped her tears, got up and trot to her flashlight slowly. At the doorway, she looked left and right. Nothing, just pure darkness. She grab her flashlight with her mouth and trot.
She didn't exit the building, she went in deeper. Then the hallway became a maze. The walls is full with mildew, hearing drops of water and has cracks everywhere. She searched the hallways and the rooms. All she found is a chair in the corner of the room.
She turned back around and found another room. She went towards the door and by the time she is at the doorway, the pony is standing in the middle of the room.
She jumped and squealed, lucky she didn't lose grip of her flashlight. Her vision disoriented more and she is too close to the pony.
She galloped through the hallway, trying to find the exit.
Few seconds of finding the exit, she finally found the exit. She galloped out of the building.
She is now outside. In front of her, she sees about a dozen of oil tanks, all lined up. She turned around to look at the back of the building. The pony is not there anymore.
She turned back around and went towards the oil tanks. She trot between the oil tanks and now she is surrounded by oil tanks. She search some of the oil tanks and found the page. She went towards it and reads it.
It said "NEVER LOOK BACK" She took the page (5/8) and put it in the bag. "I'll try." She told herself.
Suddenly, she feels like the pony is behind her. She remember the page that said, never look back. So she did and trot to the forest.
Two minutes of trotting, she found pillars. She trot towards it, when suddenly, her breathing became heavy. She been noticing she was breathing heavy. She wants to know why, but she ignored it.
She went each pillars until she saw the pony standing. She backed away and quickly looked away, forgetting the page. She moved on.
One minute of trotting, she found a big boulder with piles of crumpled rocks. She trot towards the rocks and search for the page. She looked to the left and see a white head poking out of the tree. She looked at it more closely, but the tree blocked her view. She push her head further to see the white figure, but it's gone. She just saw the figure a second ago. She forgets it and shook her mind of the scaring stuff, but it's useless, because it's obvious that she is in the dark forest and a pony that is following her. She then went back to finding the page.
She found the page and reads it. It said "WATCH OUT" She quickly took it (6/8) and put it in the bag.
She turned around to go back to the pillar, but then, she stop her tracks to see a pony right in front of her. She is too scared to scream. Her vision disoriented violently, unable to see.
She closed her eyes and bolted away from the pony. Surprising, she didn't bump into a tree.
She opens her eyes and looked back. The pony still standing there with slimey arms going inside from the back.
She didn't lose her flashlight, it was gripped hard from her teeth. She was so scared, it paralyzed her muscle, and made her heart skip a beat when she saw the pony that was too close to her.
She couldn't take it no more. She broke down crying in fear. "I want go go back. I don't want to be here anymore. Please celestia, h-help me p-please."
Out of nowhere, she started to breathe heavy. She wiped her tears and regain herself. She got up and continue trotting through the forest.
During two minutes of trotting, she notice the wind became rough. Not too rough. But tough enough to make the trees rustle more.
By the time pass by, she found an opening. She went towards it. While she looked around, she notice that she is in the same area where she got the flashlight and the saddlebag. She then went confused.
Thinking, she remember the area that has pillars. So, she trot to the path where the big tree is at.
Four minutes of trotting at a long path, her vision disoriented a quick second again. She glanced around and found a small shack. She went towards it but soon she found the pony again. She galloped to the back of the shack because there was no page in front. She found the page and looked at.
It is a picture of the pony with slimey arms coming out from the back. She quickly took the page (7/8) and gallop out of the area with a page and flashlight on her teeth and lips.
About 30 seconds, she stop and put the page in the bag. Suddenly, her flashlight started flickering on and off. "What, no. Don't die on me now flashlight." She hit the flashlight so it could stay on, but it turned off. She continue hitting the flashlight when suddenly it went back on. When she looked up, the pony is right in front of her. She screamed and dropped her flashlight, but somehow she caught it in mid air. She backed up, turned around and started galloping on the path.
One minute of galloping, she is out of breath. She then notice the wind is blowing violently and her flashlight is still flickering on and off. She looked back over her shoulder and see a pony still following. She then found the pillars right next to the pony. She thought to herself, how could I miss that. She then put her angry face and said "Stop FOLLOWING ME!" She then charged at the pillars. She passed the pony and searched each pillars. She found the last page. She bolted to the page when she felt something grabbed her hindleg. She fell and dropped her flashlight. Suddenly her flashlight turned off. She shook her right hindleg to get it off. It worked, so she quickly got up, grabbed her flashlight and started pressing the button two times, then her flashlight went back on, but still flickering. She glanced at the pillar that has the page. She galloped towards it and finally grabbed the page.
She reads it. It said, "BEHIND YOU" She stuffed the page in her bag and turned around. Suddenly, she couldn't move any more. She looked up and see a pony moving closer everytime the flashlight flickered off. Her vision disoriented violently. When the pony was close enough, it let out slimey arms out from the back. "Wait what!? No, NO!" Suddenly, she felt dizzy. Then she fell down and blacked out.
The next day
She stirred, fluttering her eyes. But then she shot up and screamed. She then heard the door opened fast. "What's going on here! Oh, it's you. Are you ok?" A nurse that has a white coat, pink mane and tail, blue eyes and wearing the uniform hat asked.
"W-where am I?" She asked.
"You are at the Ponyville Hospital." She answered.
"How did I get here?" She asked again.
"A stallion found you in the middle of the forest and took you here." She answered.
"Look, you still need some rest, so go and get some sleep, ok." She said, grinning.
"Oh, ok." She then laid back to her bed. She looked at the window and notice it's late and raining outside.
"Oh, I forgot." The nurse grabbed a folded paper. "He also found this." She put the paper on the hospital nightstand.
"Goodnight." Then she left.
She took the paper and unfold it. It said, "NO EYES, BUT WATCHES YOU" She flinched, remembering it. She looked at the window and saw the pony from before, facing her. Thunder and lightning came and disappear in front of her. She jumped and fell off the bed. She got back up and looked at the window. It's not there anymore. She got up to her bed and lay herself down. Suddenly the light started to flicker on and off. Then it went off. She grabbed the cover tightly. The lightning and thunder came again and saw the pony standing in the room, facing her.
She screamed.
The End
