The Truth About The Flim Flam Brothers

It was a normal day and the Flim Flam Brothers were heading to Ponyville. "This will be a perfect place to sell our world famous cider!" Flim said cheerfully to his brother. "Yes, I'm sure it will be a good place." Flam replied. "But what if somepony....you know.....finds out what the cider is really made out of..."

"Don't worry, Flam. Nopony will ever find that out. It's so bad that no one will think of such a....such a.....disgusting thing!" Flim said, shuddering. "I really shock myself sometimes."

Flim and Flam had a very big secret. About their cider. It wasn't made of apples, like most ponies thought. It was made of.....

"We're here!"

They jumped off the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 and began to sing. Everyone was looking up in curiosity at the two brothers.

"Well, lookie what we've got here, brother of mine, it's the same in every town! Ponies with thirsty throats, dry tongues and not a drop of cider to be found! Maybe they're not aware that there's really no need for this teary despair!"

"That the key that they need to solve the sad cider shortage you and I will share!"

The ponies began to chat amongst themselves, wondering who these two unicorns could be.

"Well you've got opportunity, in this very community!"

"He's Flim!"

"He's Flam!"

"We're the world famous Flim Flam Brothers!"

The song went on a bit, and then they had finished singing. All the ponies tried the cider.

"It's....DISGUSTING! What is it made out of?" a pony asked.

The two brothers got a bit worried.

"Uh, it's made out of....uh......ummmmm........"

Flam went bright red.

"Just apples and a bit of sweeteners!" Flim said quickly.

"Really? That sounds like it should taste nice." the pony said, raising her eyebrows.

"What is your name, young filly?" Flam asked.

"Uh, it's Berry Punch."

"You will be of use to us. You sound like you're used to making drinks."

"Yes, I love to make....punch."

"Then follow us."

The Flim Flam Brothers led Berry Punch over to the back of the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000.

"What are we doing here?" she asked.

"Oh, you'll find out soon enough, my dear." Flim smiled.

The purple earth pony started to get worried. Flam went over to a drawer and pulled out a sharp piece of metal.

Berry Punch's breathing became faster and more worried.

"What is that for?" she asked, trembling.

"For making cider. We can't put you in the machine alive, now, can we?' Flim said, smiling evilly.

A tear slid out of the corner of Berry Punch's eye.

"Are you....making me into CIDER and putting me in your machine?"

'Well, obviously. How else would we get our cider to taste better?" Flam said.

Berry Punch started to cry uncontrollably.

"So this is what your cider is really made of? Dead and helpless ponies?"

"My sweet, don't put it like that, it makes it sound much worse than it actually is." Flim said.

"But you are evil monsters! I've never known anything as awful as murdering ponies to make cider out of them."

Berry Punch cried, tears pouring out of her eyes.

"Isn't it time we began, Flim?" Flam asked his brother, who was still grinning evilly.

"Yes, brother of mine."

"Do you want to do the deed first, or shall I do it?"

"I will do it."

Flim walked over to Berry Punch and pushed the sharp piece of metal deep into her flesh. She screamed in pain as it cut into her, blood pouring onto the floor.

"Does she need to be hurt any more, Flam? What do you think?"

"She should be cut some more, brother of mine."

Flim cut a large line down the back of Berry Punch's back. She screamed so much she thought she might lose her voice when he opened up the cut. The sight of all her own body parts out in the open like that made her want to be sick. She was a bit sick, too. All over Flim's shirt.

"Most ponies we kill do that a lot more." he said, shrugging.

Flam handed him a sharp knife.

"I think this will work better, Flim."

Flim stuck his hoof into Berry Punch's skeleton, grabbing and dragging out her intestines. She continued to scream and cry as Flim held them up as if they were some kind of trophy.

He continued to grab her liver, heart and many other body parts out of her flesh. Berry Punch couldn't believe that this was the end of her life.

Flim pushed the sharp knife that Flam had given him deep into Berry Punch's cutie mark.

"You don't make drinks, you are the drink! You're Berry Punch!" Flim laughed.

Berry Punch wasn't laughing. She wasn't crying anymore, either. She realised that no matter how hard she fought, she would still always die because her insides were flapping out of her.

Flim peeled off the entire layer of skin and started cutting through the rest of her.

Berry Punch didn't care about anything anymore. She decided just to get this over with and die quietly.

A few seconds later she was dead.

"Well, brother of mine, we have a new flavour!" Flim declared, hugging Flam with his hooves still covered in jelly from Berry Punch's intestines.

"Hooray!" Flam cheered, hugging Flim.
