The characters are intentionally out of character.
Please do not take this seriously at all.
I apologize in advance for this crappy story.

The Evil Within Us

"Monsters are real, Ghosts are real too, they live inside us, and sometimes, they win"

My name is Fluttershy, I have something I need to confess. Ever since I drank this potion I've been nothing but an evil psychopath. I need to tell this to you, and you alone. As your the only one who can't do anything about it.

I live a quiet life in a town called Ponyville. I'm usually taking care of animals or hanging out with my friends. They are really good to me and as it turns out, they are all the elements of harmony, me included. I represent kindness, probably because I used to be so kind to everyone. Anyway, about 5 days ago I was low on some medicines I needed for the animals, the best place to look was the newly opened pharmacy. As I went through the doors, something wasn't right. They had barely anything, just a few potions and such. I mindlessly walked through the halls, taking in the view of the weird.. Decorations, yes, that word is appropriate I suppose.

I eventually found something titled, Tale Spin. It interested me as it was the only thing not dark. It was a potion and the liquid inside was pure yellow. I was interested so I pushed it around with my hoof and read the label on the back. "Tired of being shy? Well step up with this new potion. It will make you an outgoing pony t-" The rest appeared to be ripped off. I pondered the option for a minute. I could be more outgoing and have more friends, but the rest of the label was torn off, so there could be more harmful changes or side affects. I held it in my mouth and brought it to the register pony.

"Um excuse me, does this have any harmful things or side affects?" I asked with my sweet little voice.

He took a second to look it over and a small smile appeared on his face.

"Nope, completely safe, you want to be outgoing? This is for you!" The stallion said in a advertising-ish voice.

He had a dark blue coat and a green mane. The potion was 30 bits. Not too much, I liked it. I bid farewell and went about my business. I returned to my home about 2 hours later. Unloading my things from my saddle bag. I drank the potion swiftly. And OH GOSH, the taste was awful! The worst thing I ever tasted in my entire life! Luckily I didn't throw up.  Suddenly I felt a jolt of energy. It was like when something scary happens, like adrenaline. It was a great feeling suprisingly. I felt like I wanted to go out and meet people, like I wasn't shy anymore.

  I couldn't wait to go and talk to my friends, they would be so shocked at my new personality! Of course I had to keep my voice down for the animals though. After tending to said animals, I set out to find Rainbow Dash, the one who would probably be the most shocked. The first place to check would be the sky naturally. I took off flying, rather slowly as usual. Yet, something was amiss. I felt the need to go faster, like I wouldn't make it going slow. The adrenaline feeling kicked in again and I just felt it. I had to go fast!

My goodness, did I go fast. I could say that how fast I was going was on par with Rainbow Dash, though a tad slower.

"Fluttershy!?" I heard Dash yell in awe of my magnificence.

"Yes Rainbow Dash?" I said. It was quite louder than what Rainbow Dash was used to, so it caught her off guard.

"I didn't know you could fly so fast!" She squealed.

"Indeed I can! You're right Rainbow Dash, it felt so..  so.. AWESOME!" I shouted. I think it caught her off guard again.

"Fluttershy.. You're yelling, talking louder, flying WAY faster.. I think you just became 20% cooler!" She squealed again. Suddenly, an impulse ran through me.. I felt under control by an unknown source. I smacked Rainbow Dash across the face. I instantly regained control after that.

"Wha..? Why did you do that?" Rainbow Dash whimpered. It felt good doing that. I did it again, harder that time. Dash kept whimpering. I kept doing it untill Dash fell unconcious. I just kept laughing like a maniac. Then I threw her off the edge. I won't go into detail about what happened when she landed. Let's just say, alot of screaming and well, Dash is dead.

I had control of my mind, and my body. I watched in horror as hospital ponies desperately tried to save her, but it was no use.

2 days later I found myself inside Sugarcube Corner in Pinkies Room. She was crying uncontrollably at the death of her friend. I knew that Pinkie and the others would die soon, but I couldn't stop it.

"She was my best friend Fluttershy! WHY!!" Pinkie yelled.

"Oh Pinkie, I'm so sorry, I miss her too. We all do." I said, pointing a hoof at the other elements of harmony.

"She's right Pinkie.. W-We.." Applejack started but burst out crying as well. Dark marks were under everypony's eyes, they had all been crying obviously. All except me. I even felt no regrets for what I did... I decided it was time to finish the job. I grabbed a knife with my teeth and looked menacingly at my friends.

"Fluttershy what are you doing with that?" They all asked. It was sickening, what followed. The look of terror on their faces, the screams of agony. Only Twilight remained. A horrible grin spread on my face.

Isn't that awful? It wasn't the potions fault... All of their deaths are my fault. I hop- AAAGH.. What's happening to me?! AAAGH..

You know what? I think Twilight is far from my last victim.. Ha.. Ha.. HAHAHAHAH! AHAHHAHAHAHA!
