The Problem With Serial Killers

Barry walked towards Fluttershy, knife raised and a wide smile plastered on his face. Fluttershy looked at Barry with horror realizing what he was about to do, she screamed and cowered against the wall.

"Why are you doing this Barry?" she cried.

Barry replied with monotony "You asked me how I could do something so horrible, so I am showing you."

Barry raised the knife above his head, the cold metal gleaming in the candle light as it screamed hungrily for the yellow pegasus's blood. Barry plunged the knife into Fluttershy's abdomen, and Fluttershy screamed as the knives icy steel slithered past her ribs. Barry pulled the knife out and Fluttershy clenched the wound as she screamed her pain to the world. Barry towered above Fluttershy his knife dripping with the pegasus's blood. Fluttershy just lay where she was, to shocked to do anything except for cry and bleed.

She somehow managed to get one question past the bile in her throat before she passed out. "Why Barry?"

She woke up again and she was still siting in the same place but her wound had been bandaged up. Looking around she saw Barry sitting across the room with eyes closed, his chest rising and falling with steady breaths so she assumed he was asleep. Gathering every bit of courage she had she slowly got up, and walked out of the den, into the hallway, she had to quickly get Angel Bunny from his room and get out of here before Barry woke up. She trotted into Angels room, and almost screamed at the sight. Angel had been chopped into pieces and his head mounted on a pike in the middle of the room. She wanted to just flop down on the floor, and cry but she had to be strong for him, she would mourn him later. As she made a fast  gallop for the door something big blocked her path. She looked up into his face, Barry had a huge grin and a mad glint in his eye.

"Going somewhere?" he asked.

Fluttershy squeaked and tried to run, but was picked up by the throat in a massive choke hold and was thrown back into the corner she woke up in, she landed with a loud crunch and screamed again as she felt her two of her ribs break. Barry laughed at her pain and said "Shut up or I will kill you right now."

Upon hearing this Fluttershy stopped, but continued to quietly whimper in pain, Barry looked at her and said.

"There is a key detail that I left out when I told you about when I avenged my family. After I killed the man that were directly responsible for my family, and finished killing a few of his underlings for good measure. I felt as if I couldn't stop there, the adrenaline that coursed through my veins as I chopped them up, felt amazing. I loved every little bit of it, the feel of their blood running through my fingers, the sound of their screams piercing the air. After I had chopped up everyone their into chunks of meat, I couldn't stop I was just having to much fun.

Fluttershy was complete and utterly, horrified that she had trusted Barry. Barry seeming to sense Fluttershy's thoughts said "It's not your fault Fluttershy, many of my victims fell for the same mistake. But I must be off Fluttershy, I'm on a murdering spree. You wouldn't happen to be able to point me in the direction of any ponies I can kill?"

Fluttershy gasped her eyes darting to a picture of her friends that sat on the mantle opposite her, worried about the safety of her friend's. Barry followed Fluttershy's eyes to where she was looking and smiled as he said "do not worry my dear they will join you shortly."

Fluttershy cried out in panic and trying to reason with him she said "please don't hurt them, they don't deserve this Barry, take me but please just leave them alone."

Barry laughed at her desperate attempts to reason with him, he thought that maybe he could have even more fun before she died. Thinking quickly to himself he thought of something to say. "Very well Fluttershy, I will leave your friend's be, you have my word that I will not hurt them."

Fluttershy's face seemed to relax a little as if the knowledge of knowing her friend's would not be hurt brought her peace. Upon seeing her facial expression change from panic and horror to just horror told him that it worked. Barry lifted the knife above his head causing Fluttershy to cower down in fear, Barry brought the knife down into her chest and relished in her scream. He did this again and again laughing like a maniac as he stabbed Fluttershy, watching the life being slowly dredged from her body. She seemed to be at peace with her death and Barry knew how he could change that. He grabbed Fluttershy's head and tilted it towards his and said.

"So sorry dear, but I fear there has been a change of plans, your friend's will die after all."

Barry laughed as he saw her facial expression and brought the knife down into her chest one last time, Fluttershy slumped back against the wall stab wounds littering her body. Barry laughed to himself, as he saw Fluttershy's lifeless corpse lying on the floor of her cottage. Her blood pooling at his feet, he walked over to the picture of her friends that rested on the mantle and as he gazed at it he said "This is going to be fun."
