One day the mane six were in the Everfree Forest...

"what's...that....noise?....." Whimpered Fluttershy.

"It's just the wind." Replied Rainbow.

The six friends spotted a castle in the fog, they ran up to it. Zecora spotted them and tried to stop them.

"Do not go in that castle for it can be a hassle." Rhymed Zecora.

The mane six couldn't hear her and went in the castle. Turns out it was haunted, cause the door slammed right on them.

"Ah' can't open it!" Yelled Applejack.

"Then we will get out of here some other way." Twilight tried to keep calm.

Just then a loud and brief "Snap!" Was heard. The six friends or five, friends turn around. There was no Applejack. Faint cries of the word "Help!" Can be heard. The five friends saw a big hole, as they were about to go in it, it closed.

"Omff!" Words escaped from Applejack's mouth as she hit the ground.

"Hello.." Said a faint voice.

"Who's there?" Applejack waited for a answer.

"Let's just say I'm your dark side, but that stupid you kicked me out!" The voice said. "Now I'm back to take what's mine!"

"Wait, what?"

"I'm here to take over your body once and for all!"

"NOOOOOO!" Applejack wailed her hooves as she said her sentence.

Applejack lost control of her legs, then her body, and then to her head.

"Now I'll give Ponieville what it deserves!" Said Applejack's dark side, "MWAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Applejack was now nothing, her dark side kicked her out, she was a whole bunch of nothingness. Just then she found a body of a green mare with red hair, it looked perfectly new, so Applejack climbed into the body and took control of it. She spotted a door with a flight of stairs on the other side. She climbed up it only to see the evil Applejack with her friends. The evil Applejack turned around and did a sneer at Applejack in the other mare's body. Applejack was very shocked so she didn't bother running up to her friends, but her friends were very glad to have, or almost have Applejack again.

"We need to split up." Insisted Twilight, "Fluttershy and I will go in one direction, Rarity and Applejack go there, and Rainbow and Pinkie go that way."

As Twilight and Fluttershy went in a large room they found a green mare that was Applejack.

"Oh hi there!" Said Twilight in shock.

"Twilight I need you're help! please!" Applejack said in sadness.

"Uhh.. How do you know my name? And who are you?"

"I'm Applejack! It's me! I need you to listen to me!

Of course Twilight didn't believe her.

"Hehe. Very funny, so what's your name?"

"Applejack! Honest! My dark side took over and know I'm stuck as this pony!

"Excuse me?"

"Ugh... Forget it. I just wanted to ask, can I join?

"Of course "Applejack." You can come." Twilight giggled.

Applejack sighed. After a quick exploration,Twilight and Fluttershy bumped into Rarity and the evil Applejack. Rarity had a scared expression on her face, then the evil Applejack spotted the real Applejack in the other mare's body.

"YOU SILLY BUFFOON! HOW COULD YOU BRING THIS DUMB IDIOT!?" Yelled out the evil Applejack.

"Applejack!" Said Twilight Sparkle.

The evil Applejack then kicked Twilight in the face. "YOU GUYS ARE DUMB, CRAZY, IDIOTIC PONIES!!" The evil Applejack walked away into darkness.

Everypony was huddled up around Twilight, she had a black eye. Then Applejack spoke up.

"I was telling the truth! When I fell in the hole my dark side took over my body! But I found this one and now I'm stuck like this! Come on! Let's use the Elements of Harmony to eliminate the dark forces!" Applejack said quickly.

"But we need Applejack, and you're not exactly "Applejack." Replied Twilight in a faint voice.

Applejack sighed again, no one would believe her like this, there was no hope. She figured she'd play along in her new body. The friends continued down the room. The spotted Rainbow and Pinkie a few minutes later,

"Where's Applejack? And why do you have a black eye?" Questioned Pinkie.

"She stormed off and kicked me after calling me a buffoon." Answers Twilight.

"How could she!" Said Rarity.

"Who's this pony?" Asked Rainbow Dash.

"I don't know, she said her name is Applejack." Replied Twilight.

"That's nonsense!" Said Rainbow Dash.

"I am! I'm Applejack!" Applejack said.

The ponies kept walking in a dark hallway, then a "Crash!" noise was heard, another friend was missing. This time the friend missing was Fluttershy. There was no hole, and all that could be heard was her cries. Fluttershy found herself in a dark room, just like Applejack was in.

"H-Help..." Faintly cried Fluttershy.

"Hello Fluttershy." Said a mysterious voice.

"Umm.. Who's there?..."

"Oh, don't mind me, I'm just here to get rid of you!"

"W-What!?" Cried Fluttershy. "W-What do you mean?.."

"I mean I'm going to kill you!"

"Please... No..." Pleaded Fluttershy.

"No begging! Just follow me!"

The mysterious pony with a knife as a cutiemark led Fluttershy into a room.

"Fulfill your life as you still can!" Said the psycho pony. "HEHEHEHHEHEHEHHEHEHHE!"

"N-Nooooo!" Screamed Fluttershy.

"Hold on, let me introduce myself, I am Syko. The pony who will rule Equestria one day! Then Everypony will obey me!" Dramatically said Syko. "But this Element of Harmony thing is in my path, so I'll have to get rid of you!"

"Ding!" The sound of a bell rang.

"Dinner is ready!" Said a mare's voice.

"Coming Mommy!" Yelled Syko. "I'll be back Fluttershy."

"These ponies live in here?" Said Fluttershy to herself.

Fluttershy had to find a way to escape, and fast or else it'd be too late! Or she would become a resident of the dead! Meanwhile, when Twilight, Dashie, "Applejack", Rarity, and Pinkie were one the first floor.

"I'm worried about Fluttershy." Rainbow said.

"Me too, we got to find her." Replied Twilight.

At that moment weird noises were entering the five ponies' ears. Bats were flying towards the five ponies at a remarkable speed!

"Oh, sh*t." Said Rainbow Dash.

The bats flew toward them and cut them with their claws. The ponies were cut, but thankfully they weren't bleeding as much.

"We should've stayed home tonight." Angrily said Applejack.

"You're right." Said Pinkie.

Fluttershy was still in Syko's place, she looked around, and saw a rope leading to a trapdoor. She climbed the rope and when she opened the trapdoor sirens went off.

"INTRUDER ALERT! ESCAPEE ALERT!" Hollered the sirens.

"What in the name in Celestia?" Said Syko eating his Pizza Rolls.

"Run! RUN! RuN!!" Thought Fluttershy, and she did.

She jumped out of the trapdoor and saw a trail of mud.

"This might lead to the others." Fluttershy imagined. But she made a horrible mistake.

While the other five ponies were walking, they saw a giant gap in the floor.

"We have to turn around." Said Applejack.

"What do you mean?" Rainbow asked.

"You're not gonna carry us."

"Fine..." Shot back Rainbow.

They turned around, but when walking for a good five minutes, they saw a door they hadn't seen before.

"Where in name of Celestia did this come from?" Inquired Twilight.

She opened it and there was a trail of blood.

"Here we go..." Twilight said, and the five ponies entered the depths of the blood-stained hallway.

Turns out there were goblins in there, not just goblins, but literately three hundred seventy-two of them! The ponies ran straight into them, and they were in for a wild ride. Meanwhile, Fluttershy was still following the trail of mud. She kept whispering to herself about help, but they didn't help her. She was to scared to moved but she managed to still moved on. She ran into a pony that looked like Syko a few minutes later.

"I'm Menntel, and I also come to kill you!" Said the mental pony.

Fluttershy tried to run back on the mud trail but she was stopped by Syko.

"Not so fast!" Cried the psychopathic pony.

Just then the door flew open.

"Fluttershy!" Said the five friends.

Syko and Menntel ran away in fear.

"Let's get out of here." Said Rainbow Dash.

"Not so fast." Said a Unidentified voice.

"Who's there?"

"Me." Said the evil Applejack, this time her eyes were crying blood and she had a big cut on her side.

Everypony gasped. They stood there motionless for a second, then they ran.

"No Escape...." Said evil Applejack. "No..... Esscappe..."

"RUUUUUNNNNNN!" Shouted Fluttershy. "RUUUUUUN!"
