In the video, Rarity got up again quickly afterwards. "Oh, sorry about that, darling, it happens sometimes." She laughed sweetly. "Now, I think you could use a new suit. Follow me!"

Rarity and Hoity Toity trotted to the sewing room. Hoity Toity surveyed his surroundings. "Well, it's a nice little workroom..."

"Do you really think so?" Rarity smiled and took out some fabric and a pair of scissors. "I think you could use a change from your current fabric, don't you?"

"Well... what did you have in mind?"

"Oh, I don't know... your suit is silk, correct? Velvet can be very comfortable and elegant, and cotton can look very nice, and fur is always comfortable..."

"Fur?" Hoity Toity's glasses almost fell from his face.

"Oh, yes. Things that have been treated well often produce the best quality of fur, you know." Rarity pulled out a butcher knife from the drawer, out of Hoity Toity's sight.

"But... but, I don't think that's a very good... did the animals die naturally?"

"Well, death itself is natural."

"Well, yes, but were the animals purposely killed?"

Rarity gasped in horror. "How could you even think that I'd buy furs like that?"

Hoity Toity sighed in relief. "Er, I'm sorry, I normally don't work with furs."

"Would you like to be the fur?" Hoity Toity's confused look was quickly replaced by one of pain, after all, it's hard to keep a straight face when you're got a knife in your throat. He fell to the ground, the blood pooling around him. Rarity made short work of him, skinning him expertly and quickly.

She picked up the coat and washed out the bloodstains. A few stray stains remained, but otherwise the coat looked perfectly normal. Rarity got to sewing, and in a matter of moments, she had created a beautiful suit, but it needed... something. Rarity trotted back to the sewing room and plucked out his mane, washed the blood out, then added the mane as undertones to the suit, giving it a very elegant effect.

Rarity hung up the suit, found Hoity Toity's old suit, cleaned it free from the blood, and hung it up, although it was tinged red somewhat; Rarity had left the suit in the blood for a bit too long. She went to the body and began cleaning it. She used her magic to open up a small door to the basement and tossed the skinned body down there. A few flies flew out, having gorged themselves on rotting meat.

Rarity looked dizzy again. "Oh dear..." She fell to the ground in the same place she had fainted at first.

Twilight turned off the screen and took out the video. Rarity stared at the empty screen, stunned that she could even do such a thing, or that anypony could do something like that. Pinkie Pie nodded. "I TOLD you guys!"

Twilight sighed. "Rarity, I'm afraid Pinkie's right... you DID kill those ponies, and..." she swallowed nervously.

Rarity began to cry. "Oh, Twilight, I'm a monster! What do we do?!"

Twilight bit her lip. "Rarity, you are my best friend. But... we need to lock you up while we find out."

"Anything! Just save me from myself!" Rarity's tears pooled on the ground.

Twilight sighed and used her magic to open a door leading underground. Rarity galloped down there and stayed there as Twilight put up a forcefield to keep her down there. Rarity heard some words, then the front door closing. A few moments later, there were more hoofsteps and voices. Rarity listened closely and realized that Twilight and Pinkie had gotten the rest of the group to try and figure this out. She stayed silent so she could hear.

"So, Rarity actually... killed ponies?" That was Rainbow Dash.

"I'm afraid so. We have a video of her killing Hoity Toity and turning him into a suit." Twilight, most definitely.

The next voice she had to strain to hear. "Oh, how could Rarity do such a thing? A-are you sure it was her?" It had to be Fluttershy's voice.

"I never thought that dainty lil' pony had anythin' like that in her." Applejack.

"Well, guys, we GOTTA help her somehow!" Pinkie Pie. Rarity could hear her bouncing around.

There were some scuffling noises. They must be looking through the books, Rarity thought. "Found one!"

"Rainbow thinks she found something useful, please, please be useful..." Rarity quickly silenced herself, not wanting to miss anything they say.

Twilight began to read aloud, loudly enough for Rarity to her without straining her ears. " 'The corrupt pony is in a very unstable condition and can change her mind at any time about how she feels about anypony or everypony. They will often use their victims in a hobby or career of theirs, often tricking others into thinking it's a normal product."

"S-stop! Y-you're going to give me nightmares!" Fluttershy couldn't stand it.

Rainbow spoke. "Don't worry, it's not that bad. The worst is yet to come!"

"Rainbow, don't say that! Now, let's see here..."

Rarity stopped listening, curled up in a corner, and began to weep softly. "What's going to happen to me? Oh, I've never been so scared... I need help! I ne-e-e-e-e-ed HELP!" Soft weeping turned into loud bawling, and yet the voices upstairs seemed to be ignoring her.

Rarity stopped crying for a moment. Maybe her friends didn't care about her as a pony, they just wanted to make sure she didn't kill them. Selfish ponies. Why should they live?

She became lightheaded again and closed her eyes for a moment.

Twilight broke the forcefield and yelled for her. "Rarity! I found a cure!"

Rarity got up slowly. "I'll be up in a moment, darling." She conjured up something and hid it in her mane, then trotted upstairs.
