Beginnings

“In memory of Pinkie Diane Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Twilight Sparkle, and Rarity. May my friends and the embodiments of the Elements of Harmony have a Blissful and beautiful rest.”

“Sir, the attacks are coming from all directions. We are completely surrounded.”

“I know Night Wing. Tell all the men to gather together for I need to tell them something.” Shining Armor ordered.

“It will be done,” Night Wing states and dashes off.

To think, I was the one commanding these men and it is my fault that we ended up being ambushed. If only the dragons were not so tactical and clever. They were going to win this battle from the beginning. We are fighting the wiser and more powerful dragons after all.

“Sir, I have rallied the troops. We are ready for your command,” Night Wing states.

“Good job. Men I have something to tell you all. My protective shield will not be able to last long. Besides that, I want you all to know we are facing the Wisest and strongest dragons seen so far. Now I feel that we will not be able to make it out of this fight alive, but, I want you all to think of why you joined the Equestrian army. You joined so you could protect your country, your homes, your Mother, Father, and your Family. Now I want you all to be thankful for your lives, and your time spent with loved ones.” Shining Armor falters a bit from using his shield spell. “There is not much time left. So be prepared to die. But we shall die for our country. Now who is ready to teach these dragons a lesson that they shall never forget.” In unison the men shout “Yah.”

As if time slows, the shield falls and the Combatants have the last few seconds to prepare. All Shining Armor does however is think of his little sister back in Ponyville.

I’m sorry Twily. Your big bro won’t be coming back from this one. Take care of yourself and stay with your friends. For they will be there for you in the darkest of times, and in the lightest of times. You are so strong and I am proud to have a little sister as special as you. Who would of thought that Celestia would have taken you under her wing and taught you everything you know. You’re so powerful and I am proud to be called your B.B.B.F.F. See you around little one and stay strong.

Just as his thought finishes, the shield is completely gone and the dragons have begun their attack.

Back in Ponyville, Twilight is reading a new novel from Daring Do with Rainbow Dash. All of a sudden, she is struck by nothing and sent flying across the room. She hits the wall hard and falls with a strong thump on the ground.

“Twilight!!! Are you okay?” Rainbow asks with much concern. With no answer she goes and checks Twilight. “Twilight?” she says questioningly. She finds Twilight knocked out but with a smile on her face.

“Mmmm. Where am I?” Twilight says meekly after waking up.

She looks around finding herself in a white room and what appears to be in a hospital. “What am I doing here?” she asks franticly while sitting up. The last thing I remember is being in the library with Dash when all of a sudden I was thrown into a wall and knocked out. This is really terrifying.

She comes out of her thinking to state to find all of her friends there crying profusely.

“‘Ma gosh Twi, you’re okay.”

“Oh my gosh Twilight it is very nice to see you awake. Are you ok or are we bugging you by being here?”

"Darling, we aren’t bugging her. We’re all glad to see you well and okay.”

“This calls for a big party!”

“Not now Pinkie. Twilight are you okay?” Rainbow says while coming closer to Twilight.

“Girls, Girls. I’m fine. Just really swore and hurting. Do you know what happened Dash?” Twilight says instinctively.

“No I don’t. I was just sitting there reading when out of nowhere, I hear this crash and a loud thump. I look up and see your body on the other side of the room and it appeared as if you had been thrown around like a ragdoll,” Declared Rainbow.

Suddenly Luna teleports into the room and looks at all the ponies. They all bow in respect for the royal highness.
“Is everything alright Princess?” Twilight asks in confusion.

“Thou shall be concerned with thy own problems. I haft come to tell the of retched news.” Luna says vigorously but softly.

“No offense to you princess, but I believe that Twi should get all the rest she can for now and not be told of some nasty new as soon as she wakes up,” Applejack says to the princess.

“Aye, but the ‘nasty’ news I speak of is the reason why she got knocked unconscious in thy first place. Now please, can I have a moment with Twilight?” Luna asks sharply but softly.

"It’s up to you Sugarcube. Do you want to hear what she has to say or do you want to rest?” Applejack asks with much concern in her voice.

“We’ll do whatever you ask dear,” Rarity says nicely.

“Girls. I would like to hear what the princess has to say. However, Ms. Luna, I would like my friends to stay with me,” Twilight says reasonably.

“If that is the wish, then thou friends shall stay.” Luna says slightly angered.

“Thank you so much princess Luna,” Twilight says happily. “Now please, what is it that you wished to tell me?”

Author's Note

So this is my 1st attempt at writing a story. I already have up to chapter 8 completed however, i just want to see how many of you want to continue on with the story. Please let me know how you feel and think about this story.

Twilight

On the outskirts of Ponyville, we find a gathering of ponies from far and wide. They consisted of Shining Armor’s friends, Co-Workers, and family. They are all weeping from the passing of some pony that they all cared for and loved.

“…And we all hope and pray that our dear Shining Armor has a peaceful and meaningful rest. Twilight is there anything you or anyone would like to say as your final words to your beloved brother?” asked Princess Luna.

Twilight, who has been crying her heart out, looks up at the princess and nods her head slowly. She walks up and stands, looking at the crowd of people that all cared for her brother. She begins crying for she sees how many lives her brother has touched personally. Everyone sees this and tries to smile in order to show Twilight that it is alright to cry for they all miss him, but not as much as she will.

“My brother is a stallion of honor, loyalty, and safety. He gave his very life in order to keep us safe. I know that he is now under the watchful eye of the queen and shall be treated with kindness so great that he will want all of us to be grateful for him and to move on with happiness for his life. I know that I will never get him back but I wish him the best of luck and I hope he is in the place that was in his dreams that he told me about as a kid. I will forever miss you my Big Brother, Best Friend Forever.”

Later, Twilight is home with her friends and Spike. They are all hanging together for they know how terrible this is and that Twilight is going to need all the support that she can until this stage of her being is complete. How long it will take, no pony knows. But they all know that no matter how long it takes, they will stand by Twilight until the very end.

“Twi, I know exactly what you are going through, for I went through the same thing with both of my parents. I want you to know that I will stand by your side and that you can talk to me whenever you want,” Applejack said with assurance.

“Thanks AJ. It’s just so hard. I feel so alone and I hate the world for taking my brother away from me. I wish that he would be knocking on the front door with a big smile and ice cream like he always does whenever he visits. I am going to miss him so much and I do not know if I will ever be truly happy again.” Twilight says through her tears and trouble breathing.

The girls separate for it is getting late and they all have to get home. Spike and Twilight are left alone in the library with nothing to do or say, just cry and hold each other. They continue crying for another hour or so when Twilight stands and starts walking out the door. Spike knows what’s happening and follows. They walk. They continue walking until they come to the cemetery. They continue onward to Shining Armor’s tombstone.

Spike grabs Twilight’s hoof and begins crying. She notices and tries staying sturdy for her younger friend. Her securing walls fail and she begins crying as well. Picking spike up and hugging him as tight as she can, she cries and wishes for her brother back. They look up into each other’s eyes and can see the sadness within the others heart. They knew this day would eventually end up coming. They just did not expect it to be so soon and when they were so young.

Spike can see Twilights happy memories of her brother being there for her as a friend to help her be strong and be there when she was sad. He also saw how he was there for Twilight as a brother. He saw the day she learned how to fly a kite. There, teaching her was Shining Armor. He was there to play with her and to keep her safe in the terrifying thunder storms that seemed to never pass, and in the times when she was scared at night from the darkness.

Likewise, Twilight saw the times in Spike’s eyes where Shining Armor was playing football with him, and all the times when they hung out together to have their little “Guy’s time”. She saw the moments when Armor taught Spike how to protect those he loved with logic instead of power. The time when he was on the little league baseball team and Shining Armor came and cheered the loudest for Spike when he was out training for the army.

They each saw how important Shining Armor was to one another was and that made them cry even more. They loved him so much that they knew that they would never stop crying until they all saw him again. That day, they would both be happy again and be able to continue on. Sometime later, they returned home and went into their rooms to end this retched day.

A couple of months later, everything seems to be back to normal, except for the fact that Twilight and Spike return to the cemetery every weekend in order to honor their brother. This weekend, however, is different. There is almost no food left. Twilight notices this and asks Spike to run to the store to retrieve some food. However, she asks him to go and bring their friends back to the house.

Spike thinks nothing of the request and runs to the store and gathers together enough food and supplies to last a month. He remembers that Twilight wanted all of her friends to go to the library and proceeds to get them. He gets Rainbow Dash first since she is the fastest and asks her to get Applejack, and Fluttershy from their respective homes while he goes and gets Rarity and Pinkie Pie from their own homes. They rush off and everyone meets in front of the library a half hour later.

Spike grabs the doorknob and instantly knows something is wrong. He opens the door slowly. When it is fully open, they all walk in to the obscure and abnormally tranquil library. Rarity uses her magic and turns on the light. What they all find is a gruesome sight. Twilight was swinging back and forth, by the neck, from the ceiling of the library. She was about ten feet in the air, but it was not completely her.

It was only her head. Everyone looked off to the left and found Twilight’s body smashed into a corner and completely covered in blood. Besides the blood and body parts everywhere, they find that she has cuts across her wrists which everyone thought was anomalous. They all looked to Spike for answers but he was in a complete state of shock. He was still looking at her head, hanging from the ceiling with the same expression from when she learned Shining Armor was dead.

Fluttershy immediately covered Spike’s eyes and pushed him outside. However it was too late. Spike had seen the last person he cared for dead and completely empty. He fell to his knees, and looked to Fluttershy.

“Tell me that I just imagined all of that. Please tell me that Twilight is in there alive and reading a book just as usual. Tell me that her head is not hanging halfway between the floors and ceiling and that her body is in a corner smashed with blood everywhere. Please tell me what I saw.”

“I- I’m sorry Spike. What you saw is the truth.” Fluttershy said while crying and with complete sadness in her voice.

Spike begin crying his heart out for he had just lost the last person he cared for with all his heart. He was alone.

“I think you should come and read this,” Applejack said. Spike turned and looked to AJ who was holding what appeared to be a book, a diary of some sort.

Author's Note

So this 2nd chapter has less dialogue but i hope that it still has an impact to you guys.

Diaries

Day of Shining Armor’s Death

Dear diary,
Today is the day of Shining Armor’s funeral. How I hated watching him get carried from the hearse all the way to his designated grave. I don’t believe there was a second in which I was not crying at all today. I mean, even now while I’m writing this, I’m crying. I know he would want me and everyone else to move on but I feel that I will never be able to move on without him. He was the reasons in which I lived. At least all the way up until the day I met all of my wonderful friends.

I thank them for being here for me. I know Applejack with her honesty; will never lie to make me feel better. She will see the good inside the deep descent of this hole into my never ending sadness. Rainbow Dash will be loyal to me and never try to use this to her advantage to hurt me. Fluttershy with her kindness can make each day pass with her support. She is there for when I need her most. Pinkie will be there to make me smile. I do not know if it will work but I am happy with her trying. Rarity will be generous to me and help me in trouble times. I know that if we are in any trouble, she will not hesitate to help. In fact, all of them will try to help as best as they can.
Sincerely,
Twilight Sparkle

2 weeks after Shining Armor’s death

Dear Diary,
Today has been exactly 2 weeks since we held Shining Armor’s funeral in his honor for living such a wonderful life. It’s been so hard living on without him. Honestly the only reason I can find to keep living is Spike. He gives me the hope that I feel will get me through the day. I haven’t been a good teacher to him lately however. Lately, I’ve been in my room, alone, crying my heart out. Whenever he asks if I’m ok, I simply state that I am still sad. He then proceeds to tell me that he knows exactly what I mean.

However, he does not know 100% what I mean. I have been cutting myself to make the pain go away. And to tell the truth, it feels good. Whenever I get the blade into my hoofs, I feel in control of something for once in my life. The blade, hungry for my skin and wanting to tear my skin apart. It’s horrible, but it pleases me so much. I cut, not deep, but deep enough to feel satisfied. I know that I am taking my chances doing with Spike in the library. But I do not care. As long as I am able to make the pain go away, that is all I care for anymore.
Sincerely,
Twilight Sparkle

One month after Shining Armor’s funeral

Dear Diary,
Today I am going to go to the tombstone and weep my heart into pieces. I am making Spike stay home for I do not want him to see me in the state I will be in. I am taking my brother’s favorite things to the grave. His football, his wife, and his dreams.
I still remember the day that he got that football. We had gone to one of the school football games and he got the crazy idea of running onto the field and intercepting the ball. Well he ran out onto the field, and caught the ball. He proceeded to run down the field and was being persuaded by both teams. It was so funny. He was running as fast as he could, scared for his life. That’s how he ended up getting that School nickname, Shining Runner.

I am taking Cadence with me to Shining Armor’s grave for she has not been to see him since the day he was buried. It will be very hard on her. But I shall be there to support her as best as my abilities will enable me to.

The day that they got married, I was so happy and joyful for him. I mean, my foal sitter and my B.B.B.F.F. were getting married and were going to spend the rest of their lives together. All of my friends were there to see it as well, That made the day even better for me to know that my friends were going to be there to celebrate a wonderful time in my life. This showed that they really loved me and my family no matter what happened.

His dreams. I do not exactly how I am going to take those. But I know that I will get them to him somehow. He was so young and most likely wanted to accomplish many more things in his life before passing on to the next world.

I wish I knew how Cadence is reacting to all of this. She is probably not as bad as me however. I still care for her and I will always see her as family whether or not my brother is alive.

Well, I do not want to be late. I shall set off now.
Sincerely,
Twilight Sparkle

2 months after the death of Shining Armor

Dear Diary,
I can’t take it anymore. I feel so lost and I hate this feeling. I can feel the monster inside of me that wants to be released from its cage to wreak havoc. However, I do not want it to hurt any pony that it does not need to hurt. I know that today is they day. The day that I end my suffering and join my brother again underneath the light of the queen.

I know exactly how I am going to end up taking my own life. I will send Spike out to run some errands and to gather all of the girls together. I want them all to find me to support one another. Especially to support Spike. When he is out, I shall get the rope that I have been hiding in my room for about a month now, and tie it to the ceiling. From there, I shall tie it around my neck while standing upstairs. If tied right, and with the right trajectory, I should end up tearing my body in two. Hopefully it happens that way it is a quick, clean, and recognizable suicide. I will be able to hold you in more hoofs again.

Just hold on Brother. I am coming to you. Then we shall play and fly kites like we used to when we were younger. You’ll be teaching me all over again. You will show me how this new world works and what I can do to make my keep. I’ll do anything to meet you again and hold you in my hoofs.

I shall be coming in a few minutes my brother. I love you,
Sincerely,
Twilight Sparkle

“Sincerely, Twilight Sparkle,” Spike said with tears in his eyes.

Everyone was crying, confused, but mostly crying. They still did not understand why their friend did not come to them and ask them for support. They just wish that she never killed herself and instead of resorting to irrational decisions, would have thought about her well-being and the well-being of everyone before doing something so irrational. It was so unlike her. However, everyone understood her motives and just cried together.

Pinkie Reacts

In Memory of
Chapter 4 Pinkie Reacts
“Twilight, how could you just kill yourself? If you weren’t feeling well, you should have just come to me and I would have made you smile. I would of thrown a party, or told you jokes. I would have done anything you wanted. We could have read together, you could have tried to understand my pinkie sense. Anything. I would have done anything just to keep you smiling.” Pinkie cries out towards Twilight’s decapitated body.

“Darling, she is already gone. There is no use in talking to a...” Rarity says.

“Don’t you say that say she is just a body now. She was our friend. A friend that was lost. We should have been able to tell that she wasn’t happy. Especially me. I failed her and now she is gone.” Pinkie states then runs out of the library towards her home

You failed her Pinkie. You weren’t there for your friend and now she is lost forever. How could you be so selfish and hateful? You knew she was upset and you didn’t try to make her happy. You stayed away from her and didn’t care what happened to her. You are the reason she is dead.

“SHUT UP”

Why Pinkie you know it is true. You are the embodiment of laughter and you couldn’t even make one pony laugh. Oh I’m sorry. Now that the connection of the Elements of Harmony is dead, you are no longer an Element of Harmony. You are useless. Maybe her depression was foreshadowing that you are as useless and unimportant as every other pony out there in the world.

“LEAVE ME ALONE”

Suddenly there is knocking at Pinkie’s door.

“Pinkie, who are ya talkin’ to?” Applejack asks.

Pinkie rushes to her door wiping off tears as she went. “Oh hi Applejack. Hi Rainbow Dash. I wasn’t talking to anyone. Here come on in,” Pinkie steps to the side inviting her two friends in. “What brings you two here?” She looks at the two of them questioningly.

“We stopped by to say goodbye. We are both joining the army to put an end to this war. Twilight wouldn’t have killed herself if her brother hadn’t gotten killed. So we are going to go and avenge both of them. This way no one else gets hurt and that way their spirits may rest,” Applejack states calmly.

“You can’t go. The both of you will most likely get killed...”

“We know Pinkie but we must try, For Twilight’s sake,” Rainbow cuts off Pinkie but states coldly.

Pinkie begins crying again. Applejack and Rainbow Dash look at each other and then to their pink friend. They both feel terrible for making their friend cry. Especially since she was the embodiment of happiness. No one had ever seen her cry. Rainbow walks towards Pinkie to comfort her best friend.

“Hey. I promise that I’ll come back. Heck, when I get back, we’ll go and prank Princess Celestia, Okay?” Rainbow says meekly.

Pinkie turns her head to look at her friend. She doesn’t say a word but instead, hugs her friend tightly. Applejack comes and joins the three way hug.

“I will miss both of you greatly. Please come back home soon and do not make me have to bury you the two of you. If I have to bury another one of my friends. I know that I will go crazy,” Pinkie says to both of her friends.

“You can count on us coming back,” Applejack and Rainbow Dash say in unison. “So are ya coming to see us off or are you going to stay here talking to no one?” Applejack says jokingly.

At the train station
Applejack and Rainbow Dash are hugging their friends, Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie. They all know that it feels wrong to do a group hug without their fellow friend, Twilight. But they all know that she is there in spirit and in their hearts hugging them.

“Well we are off everypony. I shall miss ya all greatly,” Applejack says releasing her hug. Realizing that Rainbow Dash has yet to say anything, she elbows her.

“And I shall miss you all greatly. I promise to return not only as the fastest flier in Equestria, but as the hero of Equestria for ending this war,” Rainbow Dash pronounces proudly. The two of them turn and board the train knowing that they are leaving their homes, never to return again.

A few hours later
How could you let them go Pinkie? You know that they are both going to die and it’ll be your fault for not stopping them. They shall return home in body bags and you shall bury both of them knowing that you were the only reason to keep them home safe. But did you stop them. No. You let them go and now they are going to end up the same as your “Friend” Twilight Sparkle and her brother Shining Armor.

“I DID NOT LET THEM GO. I TRIED STOPPING THEM BUT THEY HAD MADE UP THEIR MINDS. THERE WAS NO STOPPING THEM. THEIR HEARTS HAD ALREADY CHOOSEN THEIR PATHS. AND DON’T YOU DARE YOU SAY TWILIGHT’S NAME. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT IN USING THAT NAME. SHE WAS ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS AND THE REASON THAT I SMILED SO OFTEN AND TRIED MAKING HER AND EVERYPONY ELSE SMILE. WITHOUT HER, I WOULD HAVE NEVER KNOWN THAT I AM THE EMBOIDMENT OF LAUGHTER. I SHALL KEEP PEOPLE LAUGHING AND I SHALL HONOR TWILIGHT FOR SHOWING ME WHO I AM REALLY AM. THERE IS NO WAY I AM LETTING YOU DISRUPT AND POISON MY MIND WITH YOUR RICHID THOUGHTS. NOW BEGONE.” Pinkie yelled out to her thoughts.

The room was silent, dark, and eerie. Pinkie knew that she was on the brink of her madness. All she needed was a goodnight sleep and she’ll be perfect in the morning,or would she?

Apple Dash

“Twi! I can’t believe that you of all ponies would resort to suicide! I thought you were stronger than this. All of us have lost an important piece to our lives. I would have never known that I was the element of Honesty without you. But now, that’s all gone. The element of magic, the magic of friendship. We are all lost without you holding us together,” Applejack says through her tears and frustrations.

Rainbow nods in agreement.

Exactly what AJ said. I believed most of all, you would be strong enough to stay out of the deep whole of despair. You probably didn’t know this but, I lost my whole family. I went to check on my family, but, there was nothing left. No house, no hopes, no dreams. Just blood was left over in place of everything. I instantly knew the fate of my family and wept myself to tears. I never talked to anyone until the day I met you. You gave me hope and it showed that I still had a life to live for. That is why I went with you on your quest to find the Elements of Harmony. I followed you. In following you, it showed that I was still needed on this world. I stayed loyal to myself and in staying loyal to myself, I met you. I was then loyal to you which ended up with me being the Element of Loyalty. I will never forget it. Thank you so much.

“You ok Dashy? You appear to be thinking a lot,” Pinkie asked.

Rainbow looked up. “Yeah I’m fine. Just very happy. I am happy that I was able to meet, and know Twilight and the awesomeness of her. I will miss her very much. To show how loyal I am to her, I am going to sign up for the army and put a stop to this war,” Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

“No Dash. You can’t go and risk your life. At least not without me you’re not,” Applejack said calmly.

They smirked at one another and laughed. They then proceeded to their places and packed their things. They said their goodbyes to everyone and headed off to Canterlot to begin their training.

8 Months Later

“You are probably wondering why I called the two of you hear. Well I have called the two of you here in order to let you know that you shall be sent out to your first battle. The two of you shall be in command of your own squad. Captain Dash you shall take squad T and Captain Jack, you shall take squad S. you what must be done.” The General salutes to Captain Rainbow Dash and to Captain Applejack.

“Sir, permission to speak, Sir.” Dash asks.

“Permission granted Captain. What is it?” Dash and Jack look at each other and sneer.

“When will we be deployed sir?”

Alright Squad. You know that we are going to be heading into battle within the next couple of days. I will be your commanding officer on this deployment. Now I know what you’re thinking. “She’s never been to battle. Why is she in command?” Well I was surprised myself to be put in command but it is a place that I shall take with much weight on my shoulders. As for the why part, I do not know. I would say it’s because of my experience with dragons, knowing their weaknesses and knowing the best time to strike. Let me tell you this. The best time to strike is now. They are weak for they have not been home in a while. They are low on supplies as our major gem source is protected at the great city of Canterlot. We shall strike now and we shall prevail. Who is with me?”

Applejack and Rainbow Dash say proudly and encouraging to each of their own squads as they are marching towards a bloody, ravened battlefield.

2 hours later

“APPLEJACK! NOOOOOOOOOOO!” Rainbow Dash exclaims as her friend is shredded apart in front of her.

She looks towards the monster that did it knowing that she has no chance to prevail over the beast. She knows this for he is the leader of the dragons.

“Why Applejack? You shouldn’t have saved me from that beast. It was my own fault if I would have gotten killed. I didn’t retreat like you said. Instead I pushed forward and kept attacking. I was almost hit by this monster but you took the hit for me. Knocking me out of the way and jumping into his claw. You knew what was going to happen. But you still did it. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!” Rainbow Dash exclaims and proceeds to attacking the dragons enveloping her.

She kills the first one by flying at the speed of awesome into his skull, crushing it instantly. A second, she kills by stabbing her sword into his chest multiple times. The dragon dies because of the loss of blood. A third falls by her hand for she just flew at it and sliced its head off. The leader sees this and looks at her hungrily. He proceeds to Dash by flying at an easy pace. When they meet up, Dash is completely blinded by rage and hate for all dragons. He sees this and aggravates her even more by taking his claw (which he tore apart Applejack) and begin licking it ever so slowly.

Rainbow is enraged by this act and proceeds to her next target. However, no matter what she does, she cannot kill the leader. His hide is too thick for her sword to cut through. Through her blinded rage, Dash sees this and proceeds attacking a different way. She starts attacking his eyes. The eyes are the only part of his body which are not covered and can easily be damaged. She stabs her sword into his eye and pulls it out. This angers the leader more than anything and begins attacking Rainbow Dash.

She is slapped with his claw and flown 50 meters. He flies over to her and begins tearing her wings off slowly to break her soul. She does not give in though. The pain is too great, however so, she stays strong and does not give him the satisfaction he desires. Upon seeing this, the Dragon leader takes a claw and cuts her skin open, exposing her gut, intestines, heart, lungs, and all of her veins. He begins taking each organ out one by one leaving the heart for last. With each organ pulled, her screams grow louder and louder until she is exhausted and cannot do anything but cry. The dragon sees this and is pleased. However he feels that he should end his suffering.

Before doing this though, he simply states, “Your home in Ponyville is next."

He proceeds to tearing out Dash’s heart, leaving nothing but an empty corpse, of the Element of Loyalty.

Author's Note

Ehhhh. My 1st battle chapter i've done. I don't know if it was well, or just horrible to read through. I tried making it seem like some battle scenes of other stories i read. What did you think?

Pinkamena Unleashed

On a peaceful, quiet day in Ponyville, Pinkie is being her usual self. Walking around, talking to everypony, making others laugh, and of course breaking the 4th wall. “What do you mean breaking the 4th wall?” Wait what, no, go, and stop breaking the wall Pinkie. “Okey dokey lokey,” Pinkie says happily and wanders off.

I feel like heading to Fluttershy’s and seeing if she wants to come with me to the train station to see if Rainbow and Applejack are back. You know it’s been almost two months since I lasted spoke to Fluttershy or Rarity. I know, I’ll set up a party for us to get together again. Now just where and how I will tell them?

Five minutes later, Pinkie is decorating the train station for her little get together party.
“Oh, I hope Rarity and Fluttershy got the R.S.V.P’s I sent to them. Gummi, you better have given the letters to them. If they got them, they’ll be sure to arrive within the next ten minutes,” Pinkie says excitedly.

She continues decorating when Spike walks up to her.

“Hey Pinkie. What are ya up to?”

“Oh I’m just decorating for a little get together that I’m setting up for Fluttershy, Rarity and I. Do you want to join us? It’ll be tons of fun,” Pinkie asks

Spike hyperly. “Sure. Sounds fun. Plus I have to get my head off of Twilight. I can’t believe that it has been 8 months since she died,” Spike said sadly.

“I know Spike. It’s been hard on all of us,” Pinkie sympathizes.

10 Minutes later

“Welcome Fluttershy. Where’s Rarity at? I hope she can come,” Pinkie asks Fluttershy instantaneously.

“Oh. Hi Pinkie. She’s getting dressed still. You know how she is about these things,” Fluttershy explains while rolling her eyes.

“Oh. Hahahaha. How silly of me to forget that Rarity is well, a Rarity,” Pinkie says with full pun intended.

“Darling, are you always going to make such childish puns of my name whenever I’m not around?” Rarity asks while walking inside the train station.

“RARITY,” Pinkie shouts and hugs her friend. “Only when I know that you are around to hear them.”

The group of friends laugh and begin catching up with each other while listening to a song that Pinkie got to record professionally just because of Vinyl. This song was her Smile song... Spike explains how hard it has been for him coping without Twilight. Pinkie explains that she is very worried for Applejack and Rainbow Dash and prays to Celestia that they make it home safely. Rarity lets everypony know that she is working on her brand new and most fashion’s dress so far. And Fluttershy explains how she has been able to cope with everything so far just because of her animal friends.

“So my dear Pinkie, you did not explain why you wanted to meet up at the Train station. Would you mind telling us now since we’re all here?” Rarity asks Pinkie kindly.

“Oh of course. I am supposed to be receiving a letter from Applejack letting me know how everything is and how she is feeling,” Pinkie explains happily.

All of a sudden, the trains whistle blows and the train arrives in Ponyville. The group all wait patiently for the letter. However, no letter appeared. What did appear though were two body bags with Applejack’s and Rainbow Dash’s cutie marks on the side.
Pinkie looks at the train as if suspecting her two friends to pop out from it somewhere. But no one ever got off the train. All that laid in front of Pinkie, were the two body bags. The bags didn’t move, shift, or even appear to have anything inside. Pinkie, finally fed up, unzipped both bags to find her two friends, inside. They were not moving except for the bits of hair that moved with the wind.

“G-g-good joke you guys. Come on. Get out of those bags and give your favorite Pink pony a hug.” No response.

“Come on you two. This isn’t funny anymore,” Pinkie says with less hope in her voice.

“Pinkie, look at them. This is no joke. They are dead my dear. We must leave their bodies in peace and give them a proper burial,” Rarity explains with ever growing sadness in her voice.

Fluttershy sees where this is heading to, and quickly knocks Spike unconscious and carries him to her extra cottage. The one place she can go to just in case something bad was to happen. Rarity sees this but ignores her. She feels that Fluttershy is over exaggerating, and so she lets her friend go off. She however was going to stay and see through till the end until Pinkie snapped back into reality realizing that their best friends were now gone, Lost to the world.

Slowly, Pinkie’s bright pink fur, mane and tail begin changing colors. It changed from its usual bright happy pink, to the dark pink of dried blood.

While this is happening, Pinkie begins saying “They’re not dead. They promised that they would both come back safely and heroes of the war. They are both just playing a prank. A very good one that is. Come on you two. Snap out of it. Get up and show Rarity that you aren’t dead.” The last word came with a sting to her mouth.

“PINKIE. SNAP OUT OF IT. THEY ARE BOTH DEAD. THEY ARE NOT COMING BACK.” Rarity exclaims at the top of her lungs.

Pinkie turns to face Rarity. However, it is not Pinkie looking into Rarity’s eyes. That happy mare is gone. All that is left over is the soulless, empty body of their friend. Rarity sees this and starts screaming for her life. It is not Pinkie Pie anymore. It is her evil side. Pinkameana Diane Pie.

All that is heard in the background is just the terror in Rarity’s voice along with a song. A song that she knew to very well. It was song that they were all listening to earlier, laughing and hanging out like friends should. The lyrics went over in her head. Every so slowly as she realized what was about to happen to her.

My name is Pinkie Pie, and I am here to say. I’m going to make you smile and I will brighten up your daaaaay. It doesn’t matter now, if you are sad or blue. Cause cheering up my friends is just what Pinkie’s here to do. Because I love to make you smile, smile, smile. Yes I do. It feels my heart up with sunshine all the while, yes it does. Because all I really need is a smile, smile, smile from these happy friends of mine.
