The Story
Today started like any other day, the cakes are baking, Sweetie bell trying to cook for Rarity, Scootaloo is taking flying lessons from Rainbow dash, snips and snails are getting into mischief, applejack is getting groceries and today Applebloom is going to Twilight's house to ask Twilight for any more ways to get a Cutie mark as she rushes to twilight's house waiting for her next adventure to begin. As she got there she noticed Twilight's door was open. Carefree with no hesitation she rushes towards the door but in a matter of seconds the door shuts her inside.
"Twi, ya here, hay it's me Applebloom I’m here for my cutie mark"
Then suddenly a door pops up from out of nowhere it slowly starts to open and then Twilight appears right behind Applebloom
"Oh hey Twi, I been looking for ya".
Twilight stare at Applebloom with cold unforgiving eyes.
"Uuhhhhh Twi, did you find a way you can help find my Cutie mar-"
Twilight interrupts her " I think I can help you and your little crusade... problems, I came up with a way to find a pony... a cutie mark whether or not if the pony yet discovered their special talent and it's just pass that door"
Overjoyed Applebloom jumps and gives twilight a nice huge hug and she says in excitement.
“Oh thank you thank you thank you! I can't wait to tell the others about this.
As soon as Applebloom goes for the door twilight levitates Applebloom and slammed her head against the surface of the wooden floor. knocking her out cold...
When Applebloom awoke, she discovered that she was not alone and she is now chained to the floor all she can move is her head and what she sees... A dim lighted white room with four other ponies each chained in a different way.
“Oh look your awake, we’ve been waiting for you" said twilight with a big smile on her face
"I was just waiting for the right moment t-"
"Where are we Snails?!" Snips said in panic
“I-I don't Snips I don't even know why we are here.”
“Maybe you shouldn't have thrown rocks at my window!” Twilight bursts out in anger
"This is just a joke right, this is a way to scare right!?!" Snips said in denial
Then suddenly multiple tubes start hovering over Applebloom. Then the tubes impale the poor defenseless Applebloom, each one in a different part of her body. One through her back and out her chest “ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” Applebloom gives a big screech in pain, than one through her neck, Applebloom is still alive by sheer will power. Then a tube goes through where her cutie mark should be. Twilight unchains Applebloom and starts to levitate her
“Look you got your cutie mark, it’s pole dancing” with a grin.
Twilight levitates Applebloom over Snips and Snails. She is bleeding over the two colts. Barely able to talk, tears started to flow out of her eyes.
"Sh-ould've lis-ten to gran-ny smith.
Twilight's horn glowed brighter than before, Applebloom's body went upright and her head was glowing, with the last of her strength Applebloom gives one last loud scream as her skull was getting crushed , then blood pours down her face and in seconds her head becomes no bigger than her hoof, her head implodes..... Blood and brain fragments scattered all over snips and snails.
In shock snails released his bowels.
Twilight stands up on her hide legs and raises her front legs in the air then throws it down and the floor starts to elevate down to a white tube like pit.
"Let’s hope you two are smarter than you look, I’m going to ask the both of you a series of riddles that are so easy… an educated filly can solve it. I'm going to ask you 6 questions. Which means you have 6 chances and if you answer 1. 1! Question right than it will restore my faith in Equestria, but if you get a wrong answer... I’m going to throw the answer at you. "wh-what do you mean" snails said in fear. Without responding Twilight continued with the questions.
The Questions
Question 1!
You’re in a room with a mirror and no doors. The room has no windows or doors. How do you get out?
“You open the door of course” snails say with great confidence.
Wrong! You look in the mirror and see what you saw. You use the saw to cut the table in halves. You put the halves together and create a hole. You jump in the hole.
Twilight constructs multiple mirrors and starts throwing it at them one by one.
Snips escaped with minor injuries leaving his horn with one crack in the middle. But snails took it the worse he gets a shard of glass in his left upper arm. But he is unable to remove the shard of glass because of his firmly chained hooves.
Sorry I guess that was too advanced for you. Aren't you in the special ed in miss Cheerilee's class?
Snips snaps and with angry tone says "hey were not in special e-" Question 2! Twilight interrupts snips.
"A cult walks into a bar and says ouch". Why?
Snails was about to answer with a great big smile but before he can say the answer. Snips quickly stops him then says
“Just shut your mouth Snails you're going to get us kill! I got this one, Ok... here it goes. snips then answers “ he slips on a piece ice and falls down and that’s why he says ouch!”
Twilight gives snips an unimproved look "no, just no there's no piece of ice, no falling down, just a bar, yes a metal bar!
“Oh come on there’s no way anypony would know that” snips protested.
“Oops sorry guess you’re going to hit the bar aren’t you?” Twilight smiles
“Wait what?!” Than before he can react, Snips feels a sharp pain, a pain so intense he couldn’t process what happened to him. All he feels is a warm watery feeling across his head and throughout his legs and the cold marble floor. Snips was unable to see with his right eye all he can barely see is Snails unconscious covered with metal bars throughout his body and his head gushing out blood. He doesn’t seem to move.
Humph! I highly doubt you will make it through the next few questions. I guess I should go easy. Question 3! What’s yours but other ponies use it more then you?
Snails started to gurgle the words… “ ur meme, yoiiur mane!” snips then asks
Wha-what? Your mane?
Twilight then smiles and replies “is that your final answer?”
For a minute Snips looks at Twilight’s expression seeing for any sign of approval. Her smile seems hopeful. Snips had decided his final answer.
“ *sigh* it’s your mane.”
Twilight’s facial expression quickly changes from happiness to a great disapproval that Snips has never seen before. She has her teeth clenched together, her mane overshadowing her eyes as she looks down on him…
“You idiot!” Twilight grunted “you couldn't see that snails was trying to give you the answer that could change your pathetic fate! he was trying to say your Name! Twilight looks at Snails and says
“I’ll go easy on you. You do deserve to be in my world. But let us hope Snips doesn't kill you on your way to freedom.”
Once again Twilight proceeds to dish out punishment. Twilight constructs a single snail and places it gently on snails head… as for snips. she was turbulent towards him. She puts her hooves together in a rainbow motion. Scissors magically appear in the direction she moved her hooves. Then she lifts both hooves in the air and the scissors started to multiply behind her… it looked like a beautiful magic show. For a moment Snips was bewildered. Then she continued to put her hooves back together. She slides her hooves against each other as if she were a dealer in the Equestria poker tournaments. It was a barrage scissors raining down on him. As if she practice this for months… the scissors cut though him missing his vitals.
“I-I can’t feel my hooves” Snips said with tears flowing down his eyes
“That’s right, all you can do is sit th____ then suddenly snips urinates himself interrupting Twilight.
“Well your weak mind always seems to find a way to disappoint me. Might as well proceed to the next question….
Question 4! What goes up a chimney down, but won't go down a chimney up?
“um-um-um……a rock” Snips answers with all hope in him lost…
“you really want me to bash your head in with a rock?
“ Noooooooo! I-I----- mean smoke”
“Nope an umbrella” Said Twilight with a with a little smirk
“th-that’s it. no hitting us? No stabbing? You’re not going to shove the umbrella down my throat?
“No… but I will be needing it soon. Twilight said with her broad smile still on her face.
“What do you mea-
Question 5!
Three lives have I.
Gentle enough to soothe the skin, Light enough to caress the sky, Hard enough to crack rocks. What am I?
“Well I don’t get what you just said but may I have time to think about this?” looking up at Twilight
For a second Twilight looks back down at him “fine. But I think your friend won’t be able to help you.
“ Huh? He slowly turns with tears filling his eyes…… S-Snails…
Snails’ right leg was under his body and the left still managing to keep his appearance as if he were alive. Though his head is tilt down and his pupils are hollow…
“Well it’s up to you; don’t make his death be in vein.
“*stiff* *stiff* Snails I’m so sorry… I promise I’ll get this one right for you and turn this maniac in for you and Applebloom.
“I would like to see that. Now proceed to your answer.
With the last hope in his words Snips begins his conclusion. “I do know that the answer has something to do with that umbrella of yours. But I never heard of water being able to break a rock and the hardest thing of the umbrella is the handle bar of umbrella. So the handle of the umbrella is the answer.
Twilight is speechless. All she can do demonstrate her emotion. Her horn starts to aluminate. Snails’ lifeless body begins to move.
“Snails you’re alive!” Snips rejoice “I think I got it we c-can go home now”
Than Snails body levitates no more than 3 inches off the ground than starts slowly rotating. His hooves still Chained to the ground. His legs begin to break. The right front dislocates and frees itself from the bonds. The left front leg rips off completely, spreading blood around the floor. The left hide fractures to the point where it’s noodle like and slips off. The right hide hoof rips off and stays chained.
Snips eyes open wide to the horror in front of him. Snips looks at Twilight, Twilight just points at Snails.
Midair, faster and faster Snails rotates upward outside the pit. His body stops. Then his neck snaps, facing towards Snips…
“If you haven’t noticed. there is a lot of blood for a body as scrawny as that and Snips do you understand my message of why I did this to Snails lifeless body?
“No! No I don’t your just a m-m-monster!
“Hmm… not quite. What I’m trying to tell you is Snails is rolling over is grave. Do you know what was the answer is?”
“*stiff* *stiff* …” Slips reply
“Water”
The blood begins to go upward. Then the blood begins to slowly purify into water. Making a roof of water over Slips and Snails. When Slips Looks up at Snails it gives the allusion as if he is standing on the water looking up at him upside down.
*sigh* Question 6…..
“The pony, who makes it, sells it. The pony who buys, it never uses it. And the pony who uses it, doesn't know they are. What is it?”
“*tch*you know… I don’t even care anymore .after seeing that… that was the icing on the cake and I don’t think…… I know I can’t solve that question. So might as well try one more thing…
“Huh? And that is?
Snips cracked horn glows with a great power and he shoots a beam at Twilight… but the beam did not even make it part way. The beam in fact faded as if it never fired, and the horn keeps on glowing to a blinding state and overflowing with magic then the horn breaks in half… shocking him close to death. All snips can feel is his back on the floor and just realized his chains were released. The blood pouring from where his horn used to be was purifying to water.
“No the answer “I don’t care” is not right…it was in fact a coffin.
Then the water surrounding snails turns into a coffin incasing him in it. Than snips starts to float and as he goes up. he sees his reflection in the water…and he sees a coffin coming out of his reflection and it opens and sets him inside.
“ hmm and I thought snails would have the strength to survive…but you killed him and yourself…… time to drown in your own failure.”
Twilight opens 6 holes in snips coffin, 3 holes on each side and drops the coffins. Landing face down preventing snips from being able to open the coffin…Snails’ coffin falls perfectly as if he was able to have the chance to escape. Twilight fills the pit with the purified blood water and she can hear snips scream till his lungs fill in with the water. She smiles.
Twilight stumped closing the pit and walks away satisfied…
