Shall we Play a Game?

by BlurredTheLines
What started out as an ordinary day in Ponyville quickly turns in to a fight for their lives for the mane six, forced to take part in a set of cruel "games" set forth by a mysterious mastermind. Will they survive? Or become victims?

I'm writing this as part of EqD's Nightmare Night fanfic writing contest. I wanted to take part in National Pony Writing Month, but due to the Artists Training Grounds, and irl stuff, that didn't happen, so this'll do (I suppose). My first fanfic, and I'm writing about horror, where has my life gone so wrong? But enough of hearing me ramble, onto the story.

A day like any other in Ponyville, peaceful and calm. Pinkie invites her friends to have a party over at Sugarcube Corner. The merriment soon turns into horror as shorty after the party starts, the group finds themselves in a strange place, the careful planning of a cunning individual. Leaving is simple, the group must overcome a set of challenges, each tailor-made against their character. The consequence for failure: Death. With the odds stacked against them, they must fight for their lives. Who could know these ponies so well to do something like this? No one knows...
