“I am not! I’m just as brave as any-AAHHH!” Sweetie Belle shot straight up, startled. Sweetie Belle frowned at him and stomped her hoof. “That’s ’cause you’re a scaredy-pony,” piped up Snips. “I don’t need an adventure like that ever again.” Applejack told me not to take on any more monsters without askin’ first.” Looks like our first adventure’s gonna be our last one for a while. “If I ever thee another monthster,” said Twist, “I’ll know which ponieth to call!”Īpple Bloom scuffed a hoof on the ground and sighed in disappointment. At least their classmates thought they were heroes. “Couldn’t you have used last season’s fabrics?” Rarity had moaned to her little sister. Most of Ponyville was impressed that the Cutie Mark Crusaders-Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, and Apple Bloom-had saved the town from the frightening bogle. With Lilymoon’s help, they decorated the creature’s old home with Rarity’s beautiful fabric. Against their sisters’ wishes, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle teamed up with Scootaloo to lure the bogle back to the Everfree Forest where it belonged. The bogle, a huge, invisible creature, had moved into Miss Cheerilee’s Schoolhouse after Lilymoon, the newest student there, accidentally disturbed its nest. “And got into lots of trouble for it.” Sweetie Belle sighed, remembering the whole terrifying thing. “Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Lilymoon helped, too,” she added. “Uh, Scootaloo? Aren’t ya forgettin’ somethin’?” Apple Bloom prompted. “No monster is a match for my wheels! I zoomed circles around that bogle! It would have eaten most of Ponyville if I hadn’t chased it back into the Forest and told it to never come back-or else!” Scootaloo struck her best Rainbow Dash–cool pose. “However did you escape?” asked Pip, enthralled. Hhhhhuuuh haaaaa!” Scootaloo breathed noisily, hooves raised like claws as she stalked toward the gathered classmates in the schoolyard. “Its huge fangs were this close to my face! I could feel its horrible, raspy breath as it got closer. The only way to know would be to perform a little experiment.… Perhaps, with the right encouragement, the guardians could be made to serve The Pony. Without a plan to charm the guardians of the Livewood, nopony could set hoof there. The Artifact would be fiercely protected. It was here, in the heart of the Everfree Forest, where the Artifact would be. The Livewood grew far in the distance, in a dark, shadowy patch. Though these “Cutie Mark Crusaders” and their families were proving to be an unexpected complication, The Pony kept focus on the final goal.
