 OP: >"No Twilight you don't get it, Anon said if l broke one more thing in his house he was going to pluck me like a chicken! His living room is wrecked!"
 
 >"Alright everyone, nothing to see here, move along.."
 >The guard pony shooed off the crowed, giving Twilight the chance to move closer
 "Sir!, what's going on? Why are there so many Guards here?"
 >Twilight takes a step back to look at the other guards
 >Two are blocking Fluttershys' door, while the one she is confronting is blocking the bridge leading to the cottage
 >"We're sorry Miss, a serious crime has taken place and we need everypony off the premises at once so I'm going to have to ask you to-"
 "But that's my friends cottage! I have to see what's going on!"
 >The guards face turns from one of stern demeanor to one of shock
 >"You're...?"
 >Twilight let's out a drawn out sigh before answering the guard
 "Yes, I'm Celestias student and bearer of the Element of Magic, now can you please move aside?"
 >The guard turns around and walks towards the two at the door
 >He whispers something to the guards, to distant to be deciphered
 >He turns around again, facing Twilights direction, and waves a hoof for her to come over
 >She quickly trots over to the guards, awaiting for them to open the door
 >"Do be careful Mrs.Twilight, we don't want you to accidentally tamper with evidence that could be useful to us.."
 >She shakes her head in agreement, and the guard opens the door with a eerie creak...
 
 >The doors opened wide, revealing the contents of the cottage
 >It was clean, swept recently
 >None of the usual animals were inside, this is what caught Twilight off
 >And where was Fluttershy?
 >A faint sobbing, right above Twilight
 >If she hadn't stood where she did she might have missed it
 >It sounded vaguely like ...
 "Fluttershy?"
 >She perked up an ear and listened to the crying
 >"W-W-Why would somepony do this? I-I-I can't...Why?"
 >Twilight realized something was VERY wrong
 >She headed upstairs, and looked at the bed
 >Before she could even turn her head, Fluttershy was under the covers, and crying
 >"I-I don't have a-anymore, you took them all, p-please.."
 "Fluttershy? What happened?"
 >The shivering blankets ceased, and were slowly pulled down by a yellow hoof
 >Only her bright blue eyes were exposed
 >"T-Twilight?"
 >Her eyes darted from wall to wall, searching.. Looking.
 >"H-he's not here is he?"
 "Who's not here? Fluttershy, what happened?"
 >Fluttershy was startled at the sudden question, and retreated back into the blankets
 >"N-no one.. Please, I qwant to be left-"
 >Before she could speak, Twilight yanked the covers off with surprising ease
 >Only Fluttershys trademark "EEP" was heard as Twilight realized what she bore witness to
 >An act against Pegasus kind, an act of true cruelty
 >Her friend lay on the bed, shivering on her back, her wings completely exposed.
 >Where beautiful feathers once lay flat, only plain pinkish skin remained
 
 "Fluttershy?! What happened to your wings!?"
 >"I-I don't know Twilight, they were all gone when I woke up..C-Can you fix this?"
 >Twilight took a moment to think, all her regrowth spells would take days, weeks, for the feathers to grow back
 >it would easily take months for enough feathers to grow back for her to fly again
 >Zecora didn't have anything for wings because, well..
 "I don't think I have anything that'll help this instant.. But if you could try to remember who could have done this, it would surly help the guards."
 >Fluttershy looked down at the wooden floor, wiped away a tear, and spoke again
 >"I already said *sniffle* I woke up like this..
 >Twilight turned away from the bed, tired of looking at what remains of her friends wings
 >Twilight thought to herself...
 "There have GOT to be clues, but where?"
 >She looked around the room, nothing
 >Under the bed perhaps?
 >she got down and looked under the bed, horn glowing, allowing her vision in the dark underneaths
 "Nothing.."
 >But, what was that?
 >Twilight got up and walked to the right of the bed
 >A long red tie..
 >A clue?
 >She picked it up with her magic, and showed Fluttershy
 "You don't wear ties, do you?"
 >Last Night
 >You are Anon
 >The infamous Beast of Ponyville and Terror of the Everfree
 >And what does an Anon have to do to get a comfy pillow around here?
 
 >Last night, you had the worst dream
 >You were in a cage, laughed at by all the ponies
 >Flim and Flam were poking you with sticks like some carnival animal and ponies threw rotting fruits at you
 >But when you awoke, you realized 3 things
 >1.Sleeping on rocks for pillows and cushions sucked. A lot.
 >2.A cave isn't as cool a home or idea as you'd thought it be
 >3.If the ponies decided to find out if you were real, they could try to capture you
 >Time to teach them the meaning of fear
 >And possibly pick up a blanket or two
 >Mainly for the blanket and pillow though, the thought of an angry mob with torches and pitch-forks as a possibility wasn't all to great an idea
 >You get up from your rock couch and make your way to the exit of the Everfree
 >Once you get out, you can spot a small house
 >Maybe you can steal a blanket or something...
 >You walk towards the house, spotting many different animals along the way
 >Cool, maybe grab something to eat here too
 >You looked at what could be a second story window
 >You pop it open, and make you way inside
 >Although not a very silent entry, it was quiet enough to make sure the pony that resided here stayed asleep
 >You tiptoed as silently as possible, and looked at the sleeping mare
 >Well, it could have been a stallion but the hair says otherwise
 >You begin to pull the blanket off, but it's caught in her hooves
 >But then you spotted it
 >A solution to both your problems
 >Her yellow wings, unfolded, spread across the bed
 >The soft feathers, and in abundance too
 >Although you didn't know to much about their little society, a Pegasus' feathers were quite dear to them
 >But they looked.. So soft..
 >Just a pillow full?
 >You begin to pluck each individual feather, taking satisfaction in each of the soft quills
 >You were sleeping good from here on out
 >You reach down for another, and touch warm skin instead
 >You look at the mare on the bed, instead of the bundle of feathers held by your other arm
 >You took all of them..
 
 >Well, that wasn't planned..
 >She's sure gonna be pissed once she wakes up that's for sure
 >The bundle you have isn't enough for half a pillow
 >You need moar
 >You're about to leave when your pulled to the floor
 >Thankfully, it wasn't loud
 >But your tie is in the hooves of that mare
 >You grab the tie and start to pull
 >No give, this mare has an Iron Grip
 >If she woke up, she'd beat your ass for sure
 >Think.. There's got to be some way..
 >An idea hits!
 >You start to untie the ties that bind
 >You're free!
 >At the price of one tie, but you'll get another soon enough
 >You make your way out the window
 >You're about to go make a mini pillow when you spot another Pegasus..
 >Flying towards a cloud house
 >Perhaps...
 
 >you walk under the cloud household
 >Pretty far up, but if you could get the necessary supplies, you could easily get up there
 >First, you'll need a cloud walking spell
 >Second, you'll need something to lift you up there
 >Third, You'll need to not be caught
 >You already know where you can get the cloud walking spell
 >Time to hit up your favorite unicorn
 >Lyra...
 >You begin the walk to her place, ever-since she spotted you that one fateful day, she'd been pretty much your only friend since then
 >Helped you out in times of need, she even offered you a place in her house
 >You would have accepted but then she said her friend "Bon Bon" wouldn't be keen on letting you stay
 >It was alright though, she still helps out and visits whenever she can
 >You told her that every once in a while she should wait and sit at a park bench when no one was a round
 >That's how you spotted her in a crowd, her way of sitting
 >And sure enough, she's sitting at that same bench
 >She always seems to know when your coming to visit..
 "Hey, Lyra!"
 >"Hey Anon! long time no see, whatcha' need?"
 "I came to ask for a little help.."
 
 >"Sure, anything for my favorite human!"
 >You look to your left and to your right, scanning for anypony who might be watching
 "Lyra, I really need a cloudwalking spell, I..."
 >"What for, if you don't mind me asking?"
 >You truly don't want to lie to her, but you can't tell the truth...
 "I'm making some new pillows.."
 >Your really hoping she buys it..
 >She squints at you, she's onto you-!
 >"Alright, but you gotta make me a cloud pillow too!"
 >It's not lying, it's twisting the truth..
 "Alright, deal. The faster the spell gets done the faster I can get on those clouds."
 >She leans back, her horn begins to glow,
 >You can feel a presence, like something watching you
 >You assume it's the spell, did it work?
 >"There! one cloud walking spell, remember our deal Anon!"
 "I will, see ya later Lyra!"
 >You wave good bye as you walk away,
 >Those feathers are soon to be yours...
 >And you'll just pick some of the edge of the cloud and take it back to Lyra for a pillow
 >Now, something to get you up on that cloud..
 
 >Twilight scratched her chin
 "Whoever did this, they wouldn't do this without reason, the punishment is to severe for anyone to even CONSIDER taking a Pegasus' feathers."
 >Fluttershy, laying on the couch, interrupts Twilights thinking
 >"I could ask my animals if they saw anything last night.."
 >Twilight perks up, and faces Fluttershy
 "And you decide to tell me this now because...?"
 >Fluttershy goes back to her shivering
 >"Well, I thought you wouldn't think it was important.."
 >Twilight lets out a loud groan
 "Fluttershy, can you please go ask the animals? I'll stay in here and look for more clues..."
 >Fluttershy slowly gets up from her couch and begins to walk towards the door
 >She begins to think to herself..
 >"What if the animals don't recognize me without my feathers?"
 >"What if they think I'm somepony else and refuse to answer?"
 >She walks outside and Twilight makes her way back upstairs
 >She looks around, hopeful for more clues as to who did this
 >"Alright Twilight, they had to get in somehow, where..."
 >On queue, she spots the still open window
 "Ah-ha!"
 >She trots over to the window, and looks down
 >Hoof-Prints!
 >...
 >Sort of..
 "Looks like we've got a trail..."
 >She starts her way downstairs
 >She turns just as Fluttershy walks through the door
 >"My animals said that it looked like of of the monkeys, but with a suit and had green skin.."
 "Then we know what we're looking for, let's go!"
