::::::::::A moan in the night::::::::::

It was late into the night at Rarity's House,as she was putting the finnishing touches on her newest summer fashion beach-dress."hmmm...perhaps a ruby on the coller...or maby a sand dollar or a seashell...What do you think Opal?" Rarity turned to her cat,whome was curled up in the corner half simply raised her head cocking a brow before laying back down,as if to say "i couldent care less"..."oh what am I going to do...This dress Simply Must Be Flawless if i am ever to please that mare from Canterlot." Rarity pondered for a moment before Abruptly Yawning..."perhaps a good night's sleep is all i need to give me my insperation".After Turning out the light she walked quietly up the stairs,carfull,as to not wake Sweetiebelle up...then went to her room to retire for the night. Climbing into bed she had just about fallen asleep untill...

*Thump Thump* a noise was heard Downstairs,Ignoring it Rarity tried to fall asleep...

*thump...Thump...THUMP.!* "Just what is that racket!,can't a Pony get her Cutie Sleep?".Rarity groaned Getting out of bed and quietly walked to sweetiebelle's room and peeked in."Sweetiebelle is sound Asleep,It couldent have been her making all that noise" She wispered.

Curious as to what was going on Rarity went downstairs,everything was dark and quiet "hello...is enypony down here?"she listend only to hear no response..."Oh this is redicules" she muttered...after all,Rarity Knew there was noone els downstiars other than Herself. Turning to Go upstairs Rarity is stoped dead in her tracks by a Deep Moan echoing thruout the house."What was that!" she spat out in a pittifull whimper as she darted her eyes around the room...it didint sound like eny pony she had ever heard before,and it didint sound like it was coming from within the house...rather than...under it? She heard it Agein...this time elongated and louder she followed the mysterious sound to her basement door."I can't beleave im about to do this" she said to herself as she hesitantly turned the door knob and whent down into the Basement. Unable to turn on the burned out Light she enveloped the basement with the light from her glowing horn. The Room was full of nothing but old Boxes full of "last year's" Fabric and Broken Manickins."theres nothing Down here but junk...i must be hearing things".No sooner did Rarity Finnish her sentance did she hear three loud thuds and another Haunting Moan,still coming from below her,Deeper under the House...Rarity Carefully looked around for the Source,Clearing piles of boxes out of her way...as she peered into one of the Boxes...

"EEEEEEK!" she yelped pulling out an old Ballroom Dress "...Did i actualy wear this Hidious thing?" throwing the Dress over her sholder she continued searching the room...untill she Finaly came across a hole in the wall...she leaned tword the the Hole..."a Mouse maby?" Rarity thot...but she had never known a mouse to make such noises or create a hole so large...another Ear peircing moan bellowed thrue the hole scaring rarity and causing her to jump back on what was an already weak Floor,only to have it colapse from Under her.

Rarity screamed as she fell down a shaft into what seemed to be a large Cavern Deep Below her home. Before her stood a Dark tunnle..."Hel..Hello...Enypony Down here?"she was Met with a Loud Growl and another Moan that echoed thrue the caverd,Whatever it was was just at the other end of that short tunnle. With no other way out,Rarity cautiously ventured onward thrue the tunnle untill she came to an even larger Chamber,one riddled with Gemstones and Pearls that brightly Reflected the light from her Horn.."This is apsolutly FABULES!" Rarity gasped with Delight...but her horn's Glow met with something els in the Cavern Something Giant,Tarnished brown in color...almost a pale bronze,AND MOVING!.Rarity looked up at the Enormes Creature that thrashed Apon the Bed of Pretious Stones and Turned tword hear *RUUUUAAAGGHHHHHHAWWWWWWGHHH* the Beast moaned as as it's Faded Mliky-Grey Eyes met with those of the Frightened Mare that stood Before it.

Rarity Could do no more than let out a Blood Curtling Scream before fainting.
