There was going to be a big party tonight in Ponyville, but this time it wasn't just one party pony that was going to prepare it, Vinyl Scratch was joining Pinkie Pie today, and everypony knew that when that happened, it was going to be hardcore, no foals allowed.
Among the ponies going to the party was Carrot Top, she was looking forward to it today, her work had been very stressful and surely the right amount of "Friendship Lubricant", as Pinkie Pie called it, would help her unwind nicely.
A few hours later, the party was going down, several ponies already helped themselves to the drinks and a little surprise Pinkie got from Canterlot, called "Opium", Carrot thought of going the safe route and drink just a few mugs of Hard Cider, but as time went by, she just gave in to the drink and chugged down mug after mug.
Felling a bit dizzy, she spotted a mare waving towards her, signaling to go inside the room, she complied and once inside she noticed the room was very dark, dimly illuminated merely by the moonlight stood the mare who called her, a blue unicorn who was wearing some sort of cape, she looked familiar, but Carrot couldn't quite put her hoof on where she'd met her before.
"Now, it is time for Trixie to have some fun" the unicorn lunged on Carrot Top, who was half intoxicated already, so Trixie was met with little resistance, she started kissing and rubbing her hooves all over the drunk mare, which seemed to be enjoying the ride.
Until she was bitten. Carrot tried screaming, but the pain was too great and her intoxicated state helped on almost completely draining her energies, she could feel the fangs being pressed against her neck, they seemed to be injecting something inside her. Unable to think clearly, she collapsed on the floor once Trixie released her.
On the next morning she woke up with a pounding headache. Ugh... I'm never going to drink that much cider ever again. Her memories from last night were very cloudy, and she couldn't tell where she was, the room was very dark, but she noticed it was daytime once she saw sunlight creeping from a gap in the curtains.
She decided to open them and look outside, which turned out to be a big mistake, once her eyes had met the sunlight, she felt an extremely painful burning sensation, which made her scream on top of her lungs. Oh Celestia... how much did I drink last night?. Carrot Top was very unfamiliar with hangovers, she always had drunk responsibly or nothing at all at parties, she knew it was a bad feeling from her friends, but had no idea how much.
Taking careful steps to avoid looking into the sun light, she left the room to explore the house she was in, leaving the bedroom she noticed she was back on her home, she had no idea how she got here, but was at least thankful she woke up in a familiar location after a drunken slumber instead of a weird place.
She made her way to the kitchen and tried getting a glass of water, but still feeling very tired she ended up clumsily spilling the water on her hooves, which responded with the same burning sensation she had when looking into the sunlight. What?? That's not possible, I might not know hangovers much but I sure as hay know they don't make you temporarily allergic to water, or whatever this burning is... if only drinking it is meant to help you! Carrot Top felt something was deeply wrong with her today.
She decided to run to the bathroom to see how she looked like, she was definitely going to need to look presentable, as she had work today on the afternoon, looking at the clock she noticed she still had a few hours to prepare herself. At the bathroom she positioned herself in front of the mirror, but there was no reflection. She put her hooves on her mouth in shock and felt two peculiar, sharp things on her mouth, she had a pair of fangs.
No no no no no no, this can't be, it's impossible, they don't exist.. do they? She couldn't believe it herself, but the evidence was clear, the aversion to sunlight, water, the fangs and the lack of reflection on her mirror.
She was a vampire.
No, she couldn't be, vampires have been on Equestrian folklore since before Nightmare Moon, if any existed there would be at least some evidence by now... Maybe it was just some strange disease she'd caught last night, considering the high amount of liquor she consumed, she might have done some crazy things, Berry Punch got Tetanus once while drunk, and she still has no memories of how the hay that happened.
She also thought about how Ponyville was a big disaster magnet, invasions and horrible accidents end up happening very often, so life in here wasn't always ordinary, a lot of the citizens argue that's what makes the town good, she didn't usually meet eye to eye to most ponies in here but on the rare occasions she did, it was wholeheartedly, she had to admit sometimes it was very exciting even if it did cause a bit of harm, but that was usually very minor, the ponies here were known for blowing things out of proportions.
She made up her mind, she'd wait until it was dark and visit the hospital, she'd go sooner but she didn't have any sunglasses nor did she want to risk it, Celestia knows what the sun was doing to her.
A few hours later, she set off to Ponyville General, it was about 10PM, she took a nap after she got bored of waiting and went a bit overboard, it was a good thing it was Sunday so she didn't have to skip work, but part of her wanted to remain ill so she could get a sick leave for Monday at least.
Her special talent was carrot based cuisine and she managed to get a job at Sugarcube Corner as a baker but not only did she nearly never cooked something with carrots in them, Pinkie Pie was a terrible boss. she seemed to have nice intentions, but she was so annoying and confusing, it had been only a few months bearing this and it was already taking it's toll on her sanity.
There it is, finally! she was now facing the hospital, it was a very long walk, the genius who did the city planning had the wonderful idea to make the establishment nearly outside of the city so the Apple family could get faster rescue on emergencies, completely disregarding the farms living on the other side of the town, or you know, the people living in the city, this happened a long time ago, but it was one of the many examples of the family abusing power while hypocritically claiming to always be in dire needs.
She went inside and had a glimpse at the clock, it was 10:27, she took nearly half an hour to walk from home to the hospital, before she could have any reaction to this however, a distressed light brown stallion entered behind her with a hoof pressing against his neck, which was bleeding profusely, Carrot's eyes widened as she had a sudden strong urge to lunge at him, she was drawn strongly by his blood.
"H-help...me" he uttered weakly before collapsing on the floor, the nurse quickly called a few doctors and they took him to a room, all Carrot could do was stare at his blood stains on the floor, she wet her hoof with a little of it and looked around her to make sure no one was looking. She stared at it, it was fresh scarlet blood, she never noticed before how beautiful the red liquid looked like, she glanced around the room one more time and licked it.
She wasn't ready for what happened next, she nearly fainted at the warm and pleasant sensations that surged through her body, she'd never felt this good in her entire life, and it was with less than an ounce of it, she wanted more of it, she needed more of it, she looked at the remaining blood on the floor, maybe if she had some more no one would notice...
"Excuse me ma'am" a gray pegasus mare with poked at her from behind "I need to clean this up"
"O-oh, I'm sorry go ahead" she looked at the pegasus in front of her, she was the janitor. She couldn't bear seeing that precious liquid being washed away, and she also desperately needed more, panicking she galloped out of the hospital and moved towards a random direction.
After a few more minutes she finally stopped and rested her back against a barn, after some deserved rest she looked at it, its wall sported a large painting of the Sun and Pinkie Pie's face, the sight awoke a rather unpleasant memory, she once told Pinkie she wanted to paint her house in a new color, and overnight, Pinkie painted without her permission the house bright pink with her face on it, however the most infuriating part of this was that Pinkie's and her own "friends" just laughed it off saying it was merely "Pinkie Pie being Pinkie Pie".
She decided to go inside it, maybe she could simply feed on a farm animal and hide its body later I'm sure the owners won't notice one animal go missing...or two and she did find an animal alright, as soon as she came in a dog bit on her leg and didn't let go, Carrot rose on her hind legs and swung the canine towards the wall repeatedly hitting it over and over until it finally let go of her.
"I can bite too you stupid mutt!" She then bit it on the neck with surprisingly little effort, her new grown fangs cut through the dog's flesh like knife through butter and she then started sucking on the blood, it was extremely satisfying, the feeling wasn't as good as pony blood, but it was very close, the fact she absolutely despised dogs made the treat all the more sweeter.
She took nearly an entire hour reveling on the blood, luckily for her the farmers were probably heavy sleepers as no one had come close to check on the barn, her little fight with the dog made a considerable amount of noise after all. She motioned to get up from the dog but forgot to release her fangs from it and accidentally removed a big chunk of meat from its neck. She chewed on it and swallowed. Not Bad, but she'd rather Blood or Oatmeal.
She put the corpse on her back and "borrowed" the farmers' shovel, after trotting for a long distance until she was outside of the property, she lay the corpse on the soil and started digging, after 2 hours making the hole, putting the dog in, and covering it in a way that looked convincing, she was very tired and decided she'd retire for the day, she took the shovel for herself for good measure. She sneaked back home, everypony seemed to have been sleeping by now as the streets were completely empty, but she felt like she was being watched.
Finally at her humble abode she sunk on her bed and left herself to her thoughts, there were no doubts anymore, she was definitely a vampire, she panicked at the thought at first but after experiencing it she felt good, it was exhilarating to sneak in the darkness of the night and consume blood, so long as she kept with small animals she was sure to have no trouble, she was going to have to employ herself on a job with the night shift however, but that didn't bothered her in the slightest, she loved the starry sky the night provided.
Her face broke into a wide grin, she was well fed with the blood and had a lot of fun. This was the best night she's had in years.
