//------------------------------// // Pt1. Prologue // Story: Daring do and the stalker at Twilight. // by Aiwhisper //------------------------------// “Hiya Twilight whatcha doin?” “Oh nothing.” Twilight was in fact looking through a pair of binoculars at a particular author. “Neto. Can I join you?” She pulled out her own pair from her mane. “Sure Pinkie whatever you want.” Twilight nodded without paying much attention. Daring Do, ak A.k. Yearling, felt a chill down her spine. Ever since moving into the sleepy town of Ponyville, on the recommendation of her friend and fellow adventurer, Rainbow dash, she hadn’t felt quite comfortable. “Um miss, that’ll be five bits.” The stall owner held out a hoof impatiently. “Here keep the change.” She slammed six bits down on the counter and moved slunk around the corner towards her house with her purchase. “Likes asparagus and is a generous tipper.” Twilight wrote in her notebook. “Oh that was nice of her.” Pinkie began writing in her own notebook, she didn’t want to feel left out. “Woah! Sorry about that.” She helped the pony she had just ran into up. “Oh hey A.K. What’s?..” “Shh.” Daring Dew slammed her fried into the shadow she had been using to hide. “Somepony is following me.” Rainbow dash looked around, she spotted Twilight and Pinkie up to their usual antics but nopony suspicions. “Really where?” That still didn’t mean she didn’t take her friend seriously. “I don’t know.” Daring groaned. “I have felt like this for the past week. Eyes everywhere. I think Dr. C and his henchponies found me or one of my other enemies.” Rainbow’s eyes went wide and she started to panic. “Should I get the girls? They can help.” “No! I don’t want to put anypony else in danger.” Daring pulled her cloak tightly around herself. “Tell nopony.” Rainbow nodded and gave a salute. “Cares about her friend’s safety though is also willing to accept help.” Twilight made another note from her invisibility spell. “Excellent this was some great research today.” “Oh oh oh, Twilight do you want to compare notes?” Pinkie happy bounced up and down, somehow able to see through Twilight’s spell. “Sure Pinkie.” They traded notebooks. “Pinkie this is just a bunch of drawings of cake.” “Yummy looking right? I wonder which one Dewy would like.” Twilight facehoofed. “Oh Pinkie.”
