Twilight and Friends

Prologue

As the sun was setting and tinting the sky orange, three pegasi flew alongside a mountain range. Heart Throb, the one whose mane was dark pink said to the others, "The sky looks so beautiful in the sunset, perfect for a romance novel."

"I concur that the scenery is aesthetically appealing at this phase of the planet's rotation," Wind Whistle added.

"Come again?" The purple-maned Firefly said to the light blue pony. "I don't speak egghead."

"My dialect may be difficult to comprehend because of my extensive vocabulary, but that doesn't justify your derision of it."

Heart Throb defended Wind Whistler, "Yeah, don't make fun of others just because they are different."

"Don't take it seriously," Firefly told the two ponies flying with her. "I was just kidding!"

"What you said to her was mean spirited. Apologize to Wind Whistler at once."

"Sorry," Firefly said reluctantly. "What about I show you how good of a flier I am by flying much closer to those mountains?"

Wind Whistler answered, "That course of action is not recommended. The lack of sufficient lighting increases the possibility of equine error."

"Quit your complaining. I'm going to do it anyways."

As Firefly began zooming her way to the mountains, Heart Throb and Wind Whistler shouted "No!" in unison.

Firefly turned her head to speak to the others, "You two will see that Firefly is best flier ever! She never crashes, never!" Just then, she crashed into a mountain. Because of her velocity, the front half of Firefly's body got stuck in the ground and the impact caused a rock slide to happen.

"Follow me with utmost haste!" Wind Whistler told Heart Throb. The two free pegasi dodged boulders as they flew to Firefly. Working together, they pulled her out. Unfortunately, a boulder was headed exactly where the three of them were grouped and it appeared there was no time to fly out.

"Duck!" Firefly shouted. Wind Whistler and Heart Throb did what she said. While their bodies were crouched, Firefly turned around and caught the incoming rock with her two hind hooves. "Go!" As her friends flew out of danger, she tossed the boulder aside. Firefly then escaped and met the others. "It's a good thing you two are safe. If you didn't distract me, this would of never happened."

"You were the one who ignored Wind Whistler," Heart Throb pointed out.

"Don't initiate an argument at this moment," Wind Whistler said. "What matters at this point of time is that there is no immediate sign of danger."

"I agree. I'm sorry about blaming you for what happened."

"If you're sorry..." Firefly paused for a second before adding, "...then that means you two are guilty for my crash!"

"Aren't you supposed to apologize as well?"

"She didn't say that we had to say sorry, I think..."

"Let's head back to Paradise Estate," Wind Whistler stated. "We all had enough exuberance for one night."

"I agree with Wind Whistler. All that happened today was a rock slide. It isn't as much fun as fighting evil. Wait, exuber-whatever means boredom, right?"

"The basic definition for exuberance is excitement."

"Oh! I knew that! Still, I wouldn't mind staying a night at Paradise Estate."

The trio began to fly their way to Paradise Estate. Heart Throb took a look back at the rock slide and felt that something was off, but couldn't quite put her hoof on it. Still, she thought it was for the best to go home.


Even though she didn't know it at the time, Heart Throb was correct. The rock slide uncovered a mysterious silver door. It slowly opened, and out walked a human girl with brown hair. Just then, a dark blue van came out as well and knocked her off the cliff. Her body got badly mangled and most of her bones broke as she tumbled down. She contemplated a lot of unimportant things as she fell and even after. Just before losing her consciousness from the blood loss, the girl could of sworn she saw a shadow.
