Last time on I Wonder If I'll Kill Someone Off This Time Quest
 
>Got some sneezing powder from Cheerliee
>Were able to find Sweetie Belle and get her to teach Twilight and Rarity a sneezing spell.
>Both got it down, although Rarity isn’t so good at it
>Left Sweetie with Apple family, who are trying to save their trees
>Ran into the Everfree Forrest to go save pony friends
>Sneaked up to Zecora's hut, expecting the others to be around.
>When Twilight came over and gave some light, turns out its completely empty
>No ponies, no mushroom, no furniture, nothing
>All that’s left is a cast iron cauldron
 
You are Rusty Shacleford, a human with no memory who has found himself lost in Equestria.
 
Currently you are at Zecora's hut with Rarity and Twilight Sparkle. The place is completely abandoned. You were expecting to find the Helmet Head monster and the ponies it had under control here.
 
"Where could they have gone?" Rarity says, looking around the room. "Why would they leave?"
 
You go out side and search for any clues or traces to where the mushroom and its minions might have gone. Even here in the forest, the snow is coming down in heavy sheets of powder, making following foot prints practically impossible. Not that you see any in this darkness.
 
You take out your lighter to give you at least some illumination as you search around. It barely helps. You really don’t see much of anything, the snow is giving everything a clean, untouched look. There's a bush not far away that MIGHT have been trampled by some one or something, but you're just guess.
 
"Find anything, Rusty?" Twilight says, coming outside.
 
"Not really," You say, walking over the the little bush that may or may not have been trampled. Its completely smooshed and frosted over. "They might have gone this way and walked on this bush."
 
Twilight comes over, using her horn to cast some light. It doesn’t really reveal anything to you. You scrap off some snow, but its just a bush. You're not a tracker....as far as you know.
 
"Hmm," Twilight says, looking from the bush to back the the hut. "If they went in a straight line.....oh no!"
 
"What is it?"
 
"I think they're heading to Ponyville!"
 
"Rarity!" Twilight calls. "Come on! We got to get back to town!"
 
Rarity rushes out of the dark little hut and you all hot foot back through the forest, noisily crunching through the snow.
 
"What is it?" Rarity yells as you run.
 
"They're heading to Ponyville!" Twilight answers.
 
"If they left, why didn’t we run into them already?" You ask.
 
"Maybe they're hide from us?"
 
Whatever the case, you thunder down the forest path for what must be at least the third time tonight. Nothing significant happens as you blast out of forest. Ponyville isn’t far away and you reach it in no time.
 
Its late now, but there are still a few ponies outside, either shoveling snow out of their doorways or trying to keep warm. Everything seems ok.
 
"I think we beat them here," Twilight says, huffing and breathing hard from all the running.
 
"Not by much." Rarity says, pointing. Looking where she's indicating, you can sees a number of shadowy figures creeping towards Ponyville in the dark. One of them is clearly much larger then the others.
