In the depths of the mountains, Derpy found what she thought was an abandoned cave and let the tears flow freely. The Mayor's billboard, Sweet Apple Acres, Sugar Cube Corner, all of Ponyville... she dreaded the thought of what would happen if she was anywhere near civilization. She had relatives in Cloudsdale, but being up in a sky civilization seemed like an even worse idea. Once she had some of her composure back, she looked into the cave. She heard something. "Huh? Who's there?" she asked, wandering deeper into the cave. It was too small to belong to a dragon, but it belonged to something big nonetheless... a BASILISK!
@CorporalPegasus: Heh, thanks. Like I said in previous posts, I've been RPing for a good long while... maybe close to a decade now, and I want to be a writer, so I try to take care in my words... even if I can be a typo/grammar-error machine at times. ^^;
@MasterGraveheart If you write a fan-fic about derpy (If you do I'm sure it will be better than amazing) could I act it out with my friends/classmates?
When Derpy was adequately down the cave, she bumped into something. "Ow! I guess it is pretty dark in here..." she said, scrunching her face as she felt around. To her horror, she realized what she bumped into wasn't solid rock at all, but rather smooth and scaly. A subtle growl could be heard as the basilisk this cave belonged to was roused from it's slumber.
"Who are you, furry one?" the basilisk asked, none to happy about being awoken early.
Derpy backed off,looking up at the perpetually veiled image of the horror that loomed before her. "Um.. I'm sorry, Mister... I didn't mean to intrude..." she said, tripping over a rock that suddenly flung itself upwards at the basilisk's face.
The basilisk was growing impatient. Having been roused from his cozy snooze was bad enough, but now he just had a rock thrown at it's face. "You press your luck, pony... it is unwise to come to the mountain pass of the basilisk nest... should I open my eyes and make you another trophy for my collection, or should I simply make a mid-day snack out of you?" he chuckled, getting in Derpy's face, sticking his tongue out, and lapping her a bit.
Derpy was paralyzed with fear, but then became subtly grossed out from being lapped by this beast. "Ewww... now I smell like frosting AND snake germs..." she muttered.
The frosting, however, was certainly something that captured the basilisk's attention. "Strangely sweet? Perhaps too sweet for my taste... explain yourself, pony," he said.
Derpy ran down her sad story of her accidents and her self-imposed exile. Looking up to the basilisk, the fear and dread she had been feeling before suddenly began to subside, and for good reason. The basilisk seemed have taken to heart Derpy's tale.
"Such a tragic turn of events for you, young friend. Truth be told, I've not been too fond of Ponyville for quite some time. Their countless celebrations, loud jamborees, and frequent parties echo all the way to my mountain dominion. Perhaps... we were meant to find each other, little one. I offer you safe haven in my mountain pass. You needn't worry about your accidents. We basilisks are too large for someone like you to harm and the mountains are sturdy enough to withstand just about any form of abuse you could put to it. Any enemy of Ponyville is a friend of ours," the basilisk sneered, several other basilisks coming out of the catacombs of the cave to greet the new arrival.
Derpy wasn't so sure about this. "Enemy of Ponyville?" she wondered. Sure, Ponyville was mad at her, but was she really an enemy of theirs? It didn't matter now. Nobody at Ponyville would want her around after the day she had. "Thank you," she smiled to the Basilisk.
@MasterGraveheart If you write a fan-fic about derpy (If you do I'm sure it will be better than amazing) could I act it out with my friends/classmates?
If you want, but I'm still not convinced... anypony else think I should do one? (time to butter me up! lol)
Mrs. Mayor walks walks into the cave and sees Derpy. "Derpy! There you are. We've had a hoofs in panic because of you. We didn't mean it like that Derpy. Come back to Ponyville. All the mess is gone. you cleared it when you left with the magic of friendship." Mrs. Mayor smiles.
One of the basilisks blocked the way for the mayor before Derpy could hear a word. "You are not welcome to our king's dominion. Turn back now, Ponyvillian, or be added to his highness' trophy wall as a petrified prize," the basilisk growled, looming closer, eyes closed, hissing threateningly.
The mayor kicks the basilisks with the back of her legs. She runs towards Derpy and grabs her, she pulls her to the front of the cave. "Derpy. Come back to Ponyville. We want you back, we didn't mean what we said. I'm sorry." The mayor looks at the floor.
@Aqueous what happened on the race track did the Internet cut out on you or something?

Derpy listened to what the Mayor said, but was still too hurt from all she's done. The words of several ponies who have criticized her over the years she spent at Ponyville still rang fresh in her ear and this, her biggest day of disasters yet, still rang ominously in her heart. She couldn't go back. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Mayor... but Ponyville shouldn't have me around anymore. I'll just end up hurting somepony or causing more damage. I can't pay back all the damage I've done if I wen't back, but if I leave, I'll be able to prevent it from happening in the future. Please... give my regards to the Apples. And tell Rainbow Dash... she was right about me," she said, walking back into the cave. The basilisk that was kicked by the Mayor sneered in response, and dragged a large, heavy boulder to seal the entrance to the cave.
@MasterGraveheart You definitely need to right a fanfic. Plus if you do it will help you become an even better writer.

Left alone in the depth of the darkness, Derpy began to cry, unknowing that the cave was nothing but an illusion, a reflection of her own heart. She was crushed by her own hoof, and gradually sank into a deep slumber, having lost all desire to waken once again. Then, out of nowhere, she heard a loud voice speak to her, telling her to never let go of hope, that she was not alone in the void. Derpy recognized Luna's traditional canterlot voice. Then, the cross-eyed pony reached out in front of her, unable to see her own hoof in the darkness. Then, she felt it; the burden Luna had carried for a thousand years, alone on the moon, forgotten by the people.
