The Deaths

Load Full StoryNext Chapter

It was a sad day in Ponyville. Celestia herself had attended the funeral. The night before, the mane six, keepers of the elements of harmony, had all died.

Pinkie Pie was having a sleepover at Applejack's house on Sweet Apple Acres. She had partied too hard, thus dying. After this happened, Applejack went out into the orchard and applebucked herself to death. On a flyover, Rainbow Dash saw Applejack's body. Despite their petty rivalry, they had a very strong friendship. Rainbow Dash flew into an empty field and slit her throat. As Fluttershy was escorting some animals to a new house, she flew ahead a little bit. She found Rainbow Dash's body. When she picked up the knife, the animals (All of them were bears) thought she had killed Rainbow Dash. They mauled Fluttershy to death.

Rarity, looking for some furs to use in a new dress, was walking to Fluttershy's house when she saw the bodies. Out of sadness, she promptly walked home and crushed herself with Tom. (She'd actually kept it) Looking for Rarity's opinion on a dress in a book she'd found, Twilight saw her body. In mourning, she beat her head in with the book she was carrying.

The next morning, Spike found all of the bodies. He sent a letter to Princess Celestia, who almost immediately used her magic to teleport to Ponyville. The funeral was later that night. As the mane six were lowered into their graves, a dark lightning cloud swirled around the cemetery. A disembodied voice resounded through the air. "Now that your heroes are dead" It said. "I can now take my rightful place on the throne!" There was evil laughter as the cloud dissipated.

Everypony attending the funeral looked at Princess Celestia. Her eyes were wide. "I have to get to Canterlot." She said, and teleported away.
