Just remember, this is a humanized story. Think of it as anthro. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash have wings, but still are human, and Twilight and Rarity have horns, but again are humans. Hope that cleared up any confusion.

Lightning crashes, leaving cracks of white across the night sky, while thunder booms, mixing the crashing and booming with the sound of torrential rainfall pouring down all around you. You struggle to stand, your body heavily wounded and losing blood rapidly. You know that you'll die soon of you don't find help. Considering that you're in the middle of Everfree Forest, the possibility of finding any is slim to none.

Finally to your feet, you begin to stagger forward, desperate to get out of the forest. Your body was covered in bruises, cuts and gashes, leaving your clothes blood-stained and torn. Thoughts begin to come across your mind as you limp through the dense forest. Is this the right way? Will you just be walking back into that treacherous bastard that attacked you? Will you trudge through this damn forest until Death decides to end your suffering?

You shiver, the loss of blood and cold rain freezing your body. Continuing to stagger forward, you notice that the thickness of trees begins to thin out. Hope of survival glimmering through the darkness, you begin to quicken your slow pace a tad. Time slowly crept by as you limped out of the forest. A rock in your path trips you up, causing you to stumble and fall to the ground. You instinctively stick you arm out to protect your face, but instantly regret it. A gash that felt as it had reached the muscle is present on your forearm. All your weight falls upon your wounded arm, and pain streaks throughout your body. You scream in agony, and rise to your feet. The pain was numbing you. You make it a couple more steps before exhaustion takes over your body, and collapse.

Surveying your soon to be final resting place, you notice that under you is a dirt path, most likely formed from so many shoes being tread upon that strip of land. You lay on your side, blood from your wounds leaking onto the dirt under you. Along with the sound of rainfall and booming thunder, another sound slowly approaches you. Footsteps. Someone is nearing you. After a couple seconds, a girl who looked to be around 18 with pink hair, and an umbrella to match it, comes across your wounded self. She drops the umbrella and rushes to your aid, crouching down over you.

"A-are you ok?" She calls out, fear and concern making her voice tremble. She takes notice to your wounds and gasps. Unconsciousness takes over your mind, and your sight slowly fades to black.
