> You are Maroon, the dark red unicorn smarty with a dark red mane
> And you are quite happy: things are looking up
> Sunny’s foals are now playing, laughing and speaking
> You have a new special friend who is really pretty, with a pretty name: Silky
> She’s so soft and you love giving her special hugs, even if she doesn’t always want to
> You even got Cuddles to show her what mouth hugs are.
> You’re going to make her give you some later
> It’s been four nights, you think, since Sunny gave birth
> During this time, you’ve questioned Sparks on where to find mares
> “Yoo help find mawes” you said “and get new speciaw fwend”
> At this, he seemed still sad. He kept looking at Cuddles, as she gave special hugs to Tangles and Jelly. At the same time.
> “Hooman homes” he said “maybe dere?”
> You’re thinking about it.
> You’re still wondering about Dark Forest, and Fake Ice Lake.
> So, this night, you sent Stompy, Jelly and Tangles to scout the Hooman Homes and look around Fake Ice Lake.
> In the meantime, you would take Sparks, Cuddles, Thor, Silky, Sunny and her foals to Little River, which separates the Home from Dark Forest.
> Little River is only about the length of three fluffies, you believe. You are not sure how deep, but in the middle, you know most fluffies can drown- it has happened before.
> Little River leads out to Big Water, and comes from The Pipe.
> During Snow Time, you have to journey to The Pipe to get water. It’s dangerous, though last Snow Time, Stompy stomped a small hole in the thin ice for the herd to drink from.
> You’ve been wondering about a way to cross it- you are interested to see what is there.
> You remember that Thor lived there when he was a colt. You asked him how get got past Little River.
> “Tor jump!” he said, with a dumb smile.
> You’re not sure you believe that.
> Currently you are drinking from Little River, taking your fill. After this, you will take the herd over to Big Field.
> Thor is teaching Sunny’s foals about water
> “wawa guud fo fwuffies. But too much wawa bad.”
> The foals don’t completely understand
> “why wawa bad?”
> “No, too much wawa bad”
> He laps at the water
> “No go in wawa. That too much wawa.”
> They seem to understand a little bit.
> “You dwink wawa when you owder. Now onwy dwink miwk. Mumma hav miwk”
> Silky still sobs and drinks the water quietly.
> Sparks and Cuddles are getting along quite well, even playing a little in between drinking the water.
> Cuddles spits a mouthful of water in Spark’s face, who tackles her to the ground and playfully nuzzles her.
> Every now and then, however, Cuddles looks to Silky.
> Why? Does she want Silky to play? Or just to be happy?
> You decide not to trouble yourself with wondering, and continue drinking.
> But then you see something on the other side of Little River…
 
----------
 
 
> You are Stompy, and you are scouting this night with Jelly and Tangles
> You are quietly wandering around the Hooman Homes, taking great care not to be seen.
> You are looking for fluffy Unicorns- the best fluffies in the world
> No dumb Earthies. No weak Wingies. Those are the rules. Those are the orders.
> The Hooman Homes are pretty, and all have nice patches of grassies infront of them.
> As well as the long metal things that contain nummies. You have to bark at Tangles and Jelly for stopping to eat grassies.
> You have them check boxes. You remember after you stomped your brother and sister and made them sleep forever because they wouldn’t let you drink mumma milk, Hooman munsta put you in a box.
> You can’t remember much more than that. But you’re certain that if there are fluffies to be found, they will be in boxes.
> Across the small metal munsta path, Tangles sniffs a box, then calls out to you.
> “Stompy! Come hewe! Found sumfing!”
> “Shh!” you hiss at him. Stupid Tangles. Jelly accompanies you as trot over to him.
> The box has a voice! It says “pwease, so scawy. No huwt cwystaw”
> You tug on the box, and it falls over. Out rolls a white unicorn with a silver mane. Three little foals tumble out with her, squealing and crying.
> They’re making too much noise!
> “Fwuffy! Come with us, huwwy! Munstas come!”
> The unicorn dam goes to pick up her foals. Two are also unicorn, one navy with a yellow mane, the other purple with a black mane
> The other is a pure silver earthie!
> You look at Tangles, as Jelly prods her her with his horn.
> The earth foals comes loose.
> “nuuu! Babeh!” she cries
> “jus wun!” you scream “Tangwes take care of babehs, jus wun!”
> You look to see Tangles is nudging the earth foal towards a drain. At the bottom od rain, you know there’s water. There is sadly no time to stomp.
> Then you hear it
> “HEY!”
> A hooman munsta has caught you!
> “fowwow Stompy!” you say, and rush towards a thicket of trees
> Jelly and the dam follow you into it, and you hide
>”YOU LITTLE FUCKS! ALWAYS MAKING FUCKIN’ NOISE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!” you hear the hooman munsta scream, followed by sounds that chill your blood and make you peepee from fear a little
> “Nuuu! Pwease no huwt Tangwes!”
>”SHUT THE FUCK UP!”
> This is followed by screaming and crying, from both Tangles and the earth foal that was left behind
> Jelly puts his face in the leaves, trying to muffle his crying
> The dam sobs softly and holds her two babies
> You bite your lip until you can taste boo-boo juice.
> The screaming stops. The foal continues to cry for a few more seconds before it too stops.
> You don’t move for a few seconds.
> “is gone?” says the dam.
> There is a few moments of silence before the hooman munsta yells
> “AND STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY GARDEN!”
> There is a loud *WHUMP* as something lands amongst you.
> It’s Tangles. His eyes are missing, his special place had been ripped off, he is missing his two front leggies and one of his back ones. Inside his mouth is the head of the foal, and the rest of the foal has been shoved up his poopie place.
> You all scream and run away. You run out of the thicket and into Big Field.
> There all of you stop, panting and afraid.
> “babeh…babeh” the dam sobs, her foals crying as well
> “Tangwes…Tangwes sweep fowevew” Jelly sniffles.
> You wait there a little while, before you ask the dam
> “Wat fwuffy’s name?”
> She sniffles as she lulls her foals back into slumber “Cwystaw”
> Crystal
> “Cwystaw guud mumma. Stompy take guud cawe of cwystaw. Stompy take cwystaw to The Home. Mawoon is guud smawty. Fowwow Stompy?”
> She nods, shivering and afraid
> “we get guud nummies, take cawe of babehs”, you say, as all of you huddle together, hugging
> You take this time to look at her foals. Both colts.
> You hope Maroon will be happy. You start heading back to The Home.
 
----------
 
> You are Silky, and you are sad
> Every night, meanie fluffy Maroon gives you bad special hugs.
> It used to hurt really bad, but now it doesn’t hurt as much
> Last night, Cuddles showed you how to give mouth hugs. She used Sparks’ happy thing to help.
> You don’t want to give mouth hugs. Especially not to Maroon.
> He keeps saying that you will be having his babies.
> You’re not sure you want babies.
> You see that Cuddles keeps looking at you. You were scared of her at first, but she and Sparks give you hugs and make you feel better every time Maroon gives you bad special hugs.
> Across Little River, you see Maroon staring into Dark Forest
>”Fwuffy come out!” he yells.
> Three fluffies emerge from Dark Forest. A Blue Unicorn with a brown mane, a pure yellow Pegasus, and a big red Earth pony.
> They trot up to Little River.
>” Hewwo!” chirps the Unicorn “I Scwuffy.  Who awe you?”
> Maroon puffs out his cheeks “I Mawoon, and dis wiver is Mawoon’s, and bewongs to Mawoon and Mawoon’s hewd!”
> Scruffy and his friends shrink back
> “Dum eawthie and weak wingie fwuffies no come ovew ow Mawoon give big owwies!”
> The three fluffies look at each other. The rest of Maroon’s herd gather around him, you decide to join, though you don’t make eye contact. You’re afraid.
> “Why no shawe wiver?”
>”Because wiver is fow Unicowns!” Maroon says.
> The three fluffies begin to back away, shaking
> “M…Mawoon is bad fwuffy!” Scruffy says as he begins to walk away, tail between his legs “Scwuffy and fwends tell smawty Peppewmint dat Mawoon is meanie fwuffy!”
> Who is Peppermint?
> Maroon snarls and stamps his feet a little.
> “Hewd! We go to Big Field now!” he bellows, and begins trotting off
> You and the others follow him
> You hate grassies. But you have to eat
> You miss sketties.
> You miss daddy.
 
----------
 
> You are Maroon, and you and your herd are eating grassies in Big Field.
> You met fluffies from another herd this night. They made you angry. Unicorn Scruffy was being dumb by having dumb earthie and wingie friends.
> You will have to make sure Dark Forest herd doesn’t come into your territory. Or try to steal your mares and long soft things.
> Stompy arrives with Jelly, and a mare with her two foals
> No Tangles
> “Where Tangwes?” you ask
> “He sweep fowevew” Stompy says, his eyes red. “Hooman munsta got him.”
> He lights up a little, however. “But Stompy find mare and foals!”
> You look the newcomers over. “What yoo name?”
> “Cwystaw” she says, unsure. She’s very pretty. Not as pretty as Silky, though.
> You smile “Evewywun, wewcome cwystaw!” and hug her.
> Everyone crowds around Crystal, giving her hugs and making her feel welcome. They all giggle.
> You spend some time eating grassies, and playing with Crystal and the others, before Jelly nudges you and says “Wook! Othew hewd!”
> He points his hoof far across Big Field. Another herd is slowly coming your way.
> You think the other herd is slightly bigger than your herd.
> “Fwuffies!” you shout. They all snap to attention. “Stay close. Wet dem come. Wets see if they fwends”
> There is a slight throbbing behind your eyes. There are wingies and earthies among them.
> You have a feeling that there’s going to be a fight.
> You smile. As if you actually lose.
> You’re going to give big owwies. Your herd will become stronger after you run these invaders away. You will make them all leak boo-boo juice
> You’re going to be a happy smarty fluffy.
