Being nice requires vice. Being a doormat is one thing this pony does not adore. Being lame isn't my game. These are the things I was taught by that mean old minotaur, Iron Will. But he does have a point... I am a doormat, and I do nothing about it. Lame isn't my game, but it's all I am. So, I decided to stop this nice business. I've decided that no more, shall this pony be a doormat!
"As Celestia is my witness, I'll never be a pushover again!" And that is exactly what I did. I became assertive.
When somepony tries to block, show them that I rock. And I did that. I shoved those who dare to block the path of new Fluttershy.
When new Fluttershy trotted around Ponyville, she met her friends Pinkie Pie and Rarity. They said they want the old me back, old wimp Fluttershy back, old do-what-you-want-because-Fluttershy-won't-do-anything-back Fluttershy. Well newsflash, girls! Old Fluttershy is gone! No, instead, you get new Fluttershy! The listen-to-me-for-once-in-your-pathetic-time-wasting-job-that-nopony-cares-about-lives Fluttershy! They want me all sad, and weak, and helpless, but no! I am NOT going to go back to old Fluttershy! Old Fluttershy is dead and y'know what Pinkie? There wouldn't have to BE so many Fluttershy's if my friends didn't have to push me aside, or my sweet little IGNORANT UNTHANKFUL Angel listened to me and ATE HIS CARROT, or if ponies took old Fluttershy seriously, BUT NO!
No more of this. New and improved Fluttershy is the way of the future! If one of those nasty dragons comes back, I'll give him such a talking to that no dragon will ever step foot in Equestria again unlike last time. I'll have total control over my animals for a change, they will all eat what I give them. That paper colt will do his job properly. That florist will do his easy job correctly and not over water my plants because he now works for NEW FLUTTERSHY!
... and this went on. New Fluttershy, for once, gave me results when I wanted to buy something. I got no lip from others. I never got ripped off because new Fluttershy is awesome. When somepony tries to rip-off, raise your hoof and FLIP OFF! I never knew what that meant but it worked so I did it. I got what I wanted for once and nopony pushed me around. It worked! I'm no longer a doormat.
... but my friends don't like me. Pinkie and Rarity were... bullied by new Fluttershy! I shoved them around. I made them my doormat. I threw a treat back in Pinkie's face. I was so rude and... I hurt my friends. I'm... new Fluttershy is what I want. I don't want to be a doormat.
But... *sniff* I don't want to hurt my friends anymore. I don't want to be feared by my little animal friends. I don't want to be rude! *hic* I don't want this! I hate this! I hate it so much! But if I don't, I'm going to be pushed around... *sniff* and ponies are going to block, and ponies are going to rip-off, and ponies are going to ignore, and ponies are going to be rude, and I'll be weak and pathetic Fluttershy... *sniff*
Oh no... oh no. No. No. No no no no. Oh no. Oh dear. I'm... no. I have... no. No~o! I'm... I'm like that minotaur. I have horns that strike fear into others... no. No. I have an attitude that makes others... NO! I... but, I have... NO NO~O! I'm...
I'm rude, as Spike would say.
I'm uncouth, as Rarity would say.
I'm uncool, as Rainbow Dash would say.
I'm lying to myself, as Applejack would say.
I'm meanie-Fluttershy, as Pinkie Pie would say.
I'm mentally confused about who I really am, as Twilight would say.
I hurt others.
I insult others.
I shove other around.
I'm...
. . .
I'm a monster.
I'm a big, rude, insulting, confused, lying, totally uncool, shoving mean old monster. I'm not a good friend. I'm not a good friend. I'm not a good friend. My animal friends hate me. My friends hate me. I'm hated. Because I'm a monster.
I hate me... because I'm a monster.
I will never hurt anypony again. I will never go into Ponyville again. I will never see my friends again. I will never see my animal friends again. I will never leave my yard again. I will never leave my house again... because I'm a monster.
I will be caged up. I will be banished. I will be caged up in the place that I am banished too. Because that's what you do with things... things like me. I will be chained up. I will be treated badly. Because that is what you do... that is what you do... because I am a monster.
I am... a monster.
