She has that look in her eyes. That "I'm not letting you go until you answer some questions and I won't take no for an answer so prepare for a ton of questions." Look.
Y/N: I know you have.....questions. So, let's take a walk. Preferably some where far from here.
Twilight: Okay...No funny business?
Y/N: No funny business.
Twilight: Hmm.....Okay.
As soon as we left the store, I thought about running away. But something told me Twilight would find a way to track me down. Whether it'd be using Applejack or worse.....
.. Pinkie Pie.
Y/N: I think I'd have a shot of outrunning Applejack, but Pinkie...
Spike: You say something?
Y/N: Just....talking to myself.
The only safe place I could think of was back home. A safe place.....yet I felt afraid. She wants an answer that I don't have. Honestly, I'm not sure I'd ever get answers.
Twilight: I'm not quite sure how to ask this, so I'll just say it. What happened back there?
Thousands of excuses poured themselves into my mind. But, something told me Twilight would see through them all.
Y/N: Would you believe the northern lights?
Okay, one escaped and no....she did not buy it.
Y/N: *Ahem* In all honesty, I know as much as you do.
Twilight: What?
Y/N: It just....kinda happens when it wants to. Sometimes, doing brief calming techniques work, and sometimes they don't. So, yea, unfortunately....that's all I've got.
Spike: I don't think I've ever heard of something like this happen to any other pony.
Y/N: No, it hasn't. I'd like to keep this between the three of us. I don't need other ponies freaking out about something I can't control.
Spike: Your secret is safe with us, bro!
Y/N: Pinkie promise!
Spike/Twilight: Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.
Y/N: Okay... okay, I trust you...
I wasn't sure about this. Telling anyone about the weird thing that happens to me. I felt....nervous. But, something told me I could trust in these two.
Spike: Not to change the subject, are you coming to the Summer Sun celebration?
Y/N: The Summer what?
Twilight: It's a celebration held in honor of Princess Celestia. It's being held next month.
Spike: Which is a perfect way for you to ask Sunset out.
Y/N: Spike!
He quickly covered his mouth, but it was too late. Twilight heard it all.
Twilight: Wait, Y/N, do you have a crush Sunset?
Y/N: I....well...
I could feel myself getting flustered.
Y/N: I just happen to like when she's around. That's all. So....this summer do hickey... what goes on?
Spike: It's basically this huge party! There's dancing and snacks and games and snacks and prizes and and and—
Y/N: And snacks?
Spike: Yup!
Twilight: And I'm sure Sunset Shimmer will be there too.
She said in a teasing tone.
Y/N: Just....promise me you'll keep this between us?
Spike: The spooky power thing, or the you having a crush on Sunset?
I sighed as I started to think about how this situation could've been avoided and, more importantly....how I should avoid any more incidents like this.
Twilight: Could....your glowing be tied to your cuite mark, perhaps?
Spike: What is it anyway?
Y/N: I doubt it.
Twilight: Why?
Y/N: Haven't gotten one.
Spike: What!?
Spike quickly ran to my side and looked at my flank. He noticed how "blurry" my cutie mark had gotten. He touches it and noticed the color was now on his finger.
Spike: It's drawn on?
Y/N: Painted.
Twilight: What's it supposed to look like anyway?
Y/N: It WAS supposed to be a rabbit to show Fluttershy. I was capable of helping her with her animals.
Twilight: But?
Y/N: Drawing on your own flank is hard.....also I can't draw very well.
Spike: So, then how come no one's said anything about your cutie mark?
Y/N: I don't think anyone's notice. Everyone's either been too busy to notice, or they just assume I have one, so they never asked.
After a bit more questioning, Spike and Twilight eventually left. I wasn't sure how I felt after everything was said and done. Twilight hasn't given me a reason not to trust her, and Spike is my bro. They knew my secret and I'd have to trust in them... they knew my secret... my terrible dark secret......
*Slumps to the floor*
Y/N: They know I like Sunset!
(Next Day....)
Trying not to think about yesterday, I headed into town focused on helping Pinkie Pie with.....I wasn't exactly sure with what. However, once I entered Ponyville. Things seemed.....off.
Y/N: Hello?
........
Y/N: Any pony here?
For some reason, the once bustling town was now empty. Stalls deserted, windows were boarded shut, and cobwebs were everywhere....it had only been a day since I've been here. What happened?
???: Pssst!
Y/N: Huh?
???: Psssst!!
Y/N: Someone there?
???: *Whispering* Come closer!
Y/N: Um....ok—Whoa!
I'm pulled into Sugar Cube corner. To my surprise, Pinkie Pie had the other ponies with her.
Y/N: Are you trying a new way to throw a surprise party?
Pinkie Pie: This is no time to joke around! And believe me, no other pony likes jokes like I do, and I'd love to tell a joke or two or several right this second, but now it's serious time!
By this point, Pinkie was pressing herself against my face.
Y/N: ........So.....it's not a surprise party?
Twilight: Can someone please explain what is going on?!
Pinkie shushes her as she peaks out a window. Applejack then grabs a flashlight and sits in front of Twilight and I.
Applejack: Some say she is a witch who loves to cast evil spells on any pony who crosses her. An evil witch who loves to cause misery and bad luck!
Y/N: That.....does sound bad.
Applejack: She once and awhile comes to Ponyville to find her next prey.....and if you're not careful.....YOU COULD BE NEXT!
She repeatedly flicks the flashlight on and off to insinuate her very spooky point.
Twilight: Uh huh....so, has anyone tried to talk with this mysterious pony?
Applejack: Wha—dag nab, it weren't ya listening to what I said?
Rarity: No one's willing to risk being cursed.
Fluttershy: A-a-and she's super scary...
Rainbow Dash: Plus, I don't wanna risk her doing any funny magic business that could mess up my coolness.
Y/N: I don't think you need magic for that.
I whisper to Spike. Rainbow Dash shoots me a sharp look.
Y/N: *Ahem* I-uh, mean magic couldn't uncool you. Heh heh....Sunset! Your here too?
Sunset Shimmer: Yea...I was on my way to ask Twilight for some help learning a new spell....Unfortunately, I was "rescued" by Pinkie Pie.
Y/N: You poor thing.
For some odd reason, Pinkies tail started to twitch rapidly.
Pinkie Pie: Twitchy twitch!
Y/N: What now?
Pinkie Pie: Something embarrassing is going to happen!
Y/N: And....this is because?
Pinkie Pie: Because! Of the Pinkie sense!
Spike: Haven't you heard? She can predict the future!
Y/N: .......
Twilight: ..........
Sunset Shimmer: ...........
Y/N: Well, I think I've had enough Pinkie strangeness for one day. Unless Pinkie, did you still need—
I watch as Pinkie Pie puts on a helmet and continues to board up windows.
Y/N: .......Nevermind. I'll um.....check if anyone else needs help.
Applejack: I'm warning ya! Don't go out when the witch is out!
Y/N: I'll take my chances.
Twilight: I should get going, too. Spike, let's get going.
Spike: A-are you sure?
Sunset Shimmer: I'm heading out, too.
Ignoring the warning pleads, we each headed out.
SunsetShimmer: Do you think they were serious about the whole witch thing?
Twilight: It sounds very far fetch.
Y/N: Agreed.
Spike: I dunno...it does sound—WITCH!
Spike suddenly takes off in the opposite direction.
Twilight: Spike! Where are you—!?
We all come to a complete stop upon seeing a cloaked spooky pony.
Twilight: W-we should judge someone before we get to know them, right?
Sunset Shimmer: Y-yea! Someone should go talk to them.
Y/N: I don't envy the brave soul who ——guys?
Suddenly, Twilight and Sunset both disappeared.
Y/N: *Gulp* Okay....I guess I'll say h-hello...
(*Meanwhile*)
Sunset Shimmer and Twilight were being held by Applejack and Rainbow Dash.
Applejack: That was close one. Y'all almost ran into the witch.
Rainbow Dash: No need to thank us for rescuing you in time.
Rarity: Aren't we missing someone?
Fluttershy: *Gasp* Y/N is still over there!
Applejack: Wha—Rainbow Dash! You were supposed to get him!
Rainbow Dash: Nuh uh! Pinkie Pie was supposed to— wait...where is she?
Pinkie Pie is seen chewing on some licorice candy.
Rainbow Dash: Dude! What are you doing?! You were supposed to rescue Y/N!
Pinkie Pie: Well, I needed some rope to lasso him to safety, but all I had was licorice, and I was like, "Hmm...maybe I could this for a rope!" But then I got a little hungry then before I knew it I was eating the rope. But don't worry! I'm sure I have more licorice around here!
Sunset Shimmer: I hate to interrupt, but Y/N's gone.
The group gasps.
Applejack: Oh no! The witch got him!
Rarity: What am I to do without my star model!?
Fluttershy: The animals really love whenever he helps out.
Rainbow Dash: Who am I gonna tell all the awesome things I've done!?
Twilight: We've gotta make sure he's okay!
Everyone: Right!
Spike: B-b-but who knows? Maybe the witch isn't so.....scary? So, maybe I'll just sit this one out?
Everyone stares at Spike.
Spike: Uh....I mean...I'm right behind you?
Pinkie Pie: Let's go save Y/N!
