A cream colored pony strolled down the street. Her read mane and tail blew slightly in the wind as she made her way home. .She glanced behind her and noticed that a few ponies were following her.

She shrugged it off and continued to her house. Her little cottage was on the edge of town. Carrot Top loved it out there. There was peace, quiet, and an amazing view of Canterlot. Also she had room to garden. Her cutie mark was three carrots after all.

A sudden sound jolted the filly from her thoughts. Carrot top glanced around and now found herself surrounded by ponies. She managed a small half smile. "Uh, hi?"

All the ponies around her glared. She cowered a little but gathered her courage enough to ask a question. "W-what do you want?"

The leader stepped forward. He was a dark blue earth pony with a yellow mane and multicolored film reel as a cutie mark. He gave her a nasty look before saying, "Your suck a freak Carrot Top! You have to leave town. Now."

Carrot Top glanced fearfully around her. No escape.

"I can't leave. Ponyville is my home!"

"Not anymore!"

The leader nodded and rocks were now being thrown at the cream pony. She crouched down as best she could, hoping that the rocks would miss.

She could feel anger welling up inside herself. The filly tried, in vain, to stay calm. They can't do this! This is my home! I won't let them!

The red headed pony stood up to her fullest height and stomped one foot. A shock wave erupted from where her hoof had hit the ground and the earth began to tremble.

All the ponies that had gathered now crouched as low to the ground as possible, hoping to evade the mad earth pony.

Carrot Top walked to the nearest pony. He had a grey coat and orange mane. He glanced up at her fearfully. Carrot Top held out her hoof to the colt and offered him a gentle smile.


A few months later…

Carrot Top was returning from the market when she heard a few Colts whispering.

"I heard she was a witch," Said one.

"Someone told me she can control plants."

"That's so weird."

"Here she comes!"

Carrot top sighed. Those rumors had started the day she was confronted by the other ponies. Not many ponies would talk to her now.

Small tears formed around the fillies eyes, but she refused to let them fall. Not in public at least.

The red head was passing by Sugar Cube Corner when a yell caught her attention.

"Get out of here you freak!" Carrot Top looked up from the ground and was hit in the face with a rock.

She could feel something warm and wet slide down her face. Blood! She was bleeding!

Carrot Top let out a startled cry before running home. Tears now fell freely from her eyes.


A few minutes later, the cream filly arrived at her cottage. She ran up to the door and was about to open it when it flew open.

Inside were many ponies each one sneering at her. One grabbed her and pulled her inside.

Carrot Top tried to struggle but there were too many ponies. They easily over powered the poor filly. About four held her to the ground while the others tied her up. The red head cried and asked 'Why' but nopony would answer her.

Eventually, the ponies stood back to admire their work. They all smiled at the now tied up Carrot Top.

All the ponies left the house, but Carrot Top could hear them outside. She head one of them say 'Light it up.'

A few seconds later Carrot Top smelt something weird. It was a terrible smell that sent chills down her spine. It was smoke.

They had light her house on fire.

Flames entered the room like a bull in a china shop. They destroyed everything.

Carrot Top struggled in her binds, but to no avail. She could not get free. She sighed and waited for the end to come, which it did.


The ponies outside cheered at the house before them collapsed. None of them bothered to search through the ashes because they knew they would find nothing. And when they turned away, they didn't notice the bushel of carrots that looked like a certain fillies cutie mark.

The ponies reentered ponyville and immediately told everyone about how they had killed the witch. All ponies, young and old listened to their stories. What they didn't notice was a Cream colored pony laughing as she left town


.

Carrot Top laughed. They thought she was gone. They thought they had killed her. What a joke! Those fools didn't know anything.

They had called Carrot Top a witch, demon, and monster, but none of these could be farther from the truth. The red head was a savior, no, a God! If they knew her real name, they would never mess with her.

No matter how hard they tried, Carrot Top could never truly die. They could kill her body but never her spirit. As long as Equestria lived, so would Carrot Top.

After all, she was Mother Nature.
