Workers of the Factory: Dr. Flutters, Darth Pie and Princess Munch

Somewhere deep in the factory was a rejuvenation tank full of pink liquid. Many tubes and wires hooked up to it. Around the pink tank were ten grey Pinkie Pies, barely alive, spectra drained from their bodies. All of them were hooked up to the pink tank which drained the energy and power from their bodies. Pink smoke filled the air.

A clone of Cheese Sandwich walked into the room. He walked towards the rejuvenation tank. "Lord, the new pony slaves have arrived. You asked me to get you." Cheese said nervously. "They seem kinda worried."

Slowly the pink rejuvenation tank began to to drain, revealing a very pink pony. Wires and tubes were stuck into her belly and limbs. A breathing mask was over her muzzle so she could breath while submerged in the spectra.

The front of the tank open and the pony pulled out the wires and tubes. At first she was frowning, but she soon put on her signature Pinkie Pie grin. She put on a black cape and a top hat.

"Well, if they are worried its time to throw them a 'welcome to the factory party'!" said the Pinkie Pie.

"Did KARiN find Trixie yet, or do I have to put on this show by myself?" she said happily.

"No she hasn't, but she's close."

"Oh well, guess this is going to have to be a solo."

"Um, Lord Pinkie-"

"Thats Darth Pinkie to you." Pinkie said.

"Yes Darth Pinkie, I was wondering if you should be absorbing three Pinkie Pie clones a day. KARiN's tests said that one Pinkie Pie per day was dangerous who knows what three could do to your body."

Darth Pie looked Cheese straight in the eye dropping her smile. Cheese gulped afraid to get choked.

"Cheese, do you know how difficult it is to keep thousands of meat ponies happy and entertained? Well let me tell you, it's pretty gosh darn difficult when every day brings them closer to slaughter, rape and the occasional weirdo who just wants to cuddle."

Cheese made a face of disgust.

"I know right? Cuddling ponies? What kind of sicko does that? Any who as the administrator of cheer in this factory, KARiN hand picked me to be in charge of keeping these ponies happy so they won't riot. Because if they do that we'll have to kill them and then we'll have to explain to everybody that the live pony they ordered is going to be delayed. That's why I'm willing to absorb three Pinkie Pies a day. The factory needs me to take risks so it can succeed. Now come on, lets go."

Darth Pie began to walk out the door of the chamber into the main hall of the factory when she felt something weird in her kidney.

"I sense a disturbance in the goof." said Darth Pie.

"I don't sense anything." said Cheese.

"Its one of the clones. She's... different. Stronger even." she paused a moment, considering the implications.

"Cheese?"

"Yes my pink lord?"

"Fetch me my speaker system, some snacks, my party cannon and my lightsaber, we are going to greet the meat."

***

Twilight just sat there in the pale light of the elevator, covered in the cum and blood of Trixie, waiting for her brain to do its work and sort out her thoughts and then as if someone flipped a switch she began to have a mental breakdown.

Twilight's mind was completely shattered as she stood there riding the elevator down to the basement of the factory. She had just seen eleven ponies brutally murdered before her eyes. It wasn't so much the blood and gore part that bothered her. It was more the fact that what just happened went against every moral code that Twilight had been taught as a child and since her time in Ponyville. The magic of friendship was absolutely worthless in this place. She was in a place where the value of her body was considered more valuable than her soul and it was driving her mad. She couldn't stand to spend another second in this factory.

Her panicked mind came up with a plan. When the elevator stopped and let her out near KARiN she would attack her. Her chances of survival were slim, but she didn't care. Death would be better than spending another minute in this factory.

The elevator slowed to a stop. Twilight braced herself ready to attack as soon as the doors opened.

The doors began to open. Twilight rushed out primed to attack KARiN.

But KARiN was not at the end of the hallway.

"Hi Twilight." said a Fluttershy clone sitting in a chair, sipping on a box of apple juice . Next to her was a red velvet sofa with some restraints.

"Fluttershy!" Twilight said, surprised. "what are you doing here?"

"Oh, miss KARiN made me one of her factory workers."

"Factory workers? I thought this place was automated?" said Twilight.

"The factory was run exclusively by Miss KARiN, but she discovered that some things required a pony's touch. One of those things was being a therapist or nurse for when injuries to the mind or body happen. I really enjoy it."

"Oh, ok, why am I here then? " asked Twilight.

"Mistress KARiN was worried that your accident may have caused your sanity to drop drastically. So she sent you to me first. Now take a seat." Fluttershy gestured to the red velvet couch.

Very clever KARiN, you knew that I was planning to attack you so you sent Fluttershy to greet me. I would never even think to hurt Fluttershy. Suddenly Twilight was aware that she was covered in semen and blood and felt ashamed, she wanted to melt into the walls so no pony could see her in her disgraceful state.

Mechanical hands picked up Twilight and placed her onto the couch gently.

"I wouldn't try to run if I were you, trust me, it wouldn't end well" Fluttershy said.

Twilight let out a sigh, she knew that Fluttershy wasn't lying after what she had seen so far today.

Fluttershy hummed as she looked over her notes. The room was decorated with pictures of her animals from back home some of them from a while ago. There was also a PhD in psychology from Canterlot University framed over her desk.

"The ponies here call me Dr. Flutters. Mistress KARiN gave me the job as the factory's psychologist." said Fluttershy. "Sent me to college and everything. Now my job is to make sure the ponies that we sell stay sane. We can't have insane ponies walking into the customers home. If I can't get them sane..." She looked over at a closed grinder on the edge of the room and then she looked back at Twilight. "KARiN isn't as bad as you think she is. She's just doing her job. She's actually really sweet, I owe her my life and would do anything for her."

Twilight didn't need to be a psychologist to know this was a very obvious case of Stockholm Syndrome.

Fluttershy looked her over and gave her a gentle smile.

"Yeah, I know what you're thinking. You think I have Stockholm Syndrome again don't you. Every Twilight that comes here thinks that, and perhaps they are right. It doesn't affect my feelings for her though. I would give my life and body to her if she needed me."

Twilight had an eerie feeling that Fluttershy had this conversation before with another Twilight Sparkle. So many meat ponies had come through this room for her to inspect she must have dozens of them.

Please take a look at this ink blot and tell me what you see.

Twilight hesitated.

"I see a a face." Lied Twilight.

Dr. Flutters raised an eyebrow.

"Be honest Twilight. I really am trying to help you." said Dr. Flutters

"I see ponies having sex with another pony."

Fluttershy scribbled a note onto her notepad.

"And this one?"

"I see two humans getting impaled."

Fluttershy nodded as if this confirmed what she was thinking.

"You are having doubts about being a meat pony?" Fluttershy stated calmly as if it were a fact not a question.

"Yes." replied Twilight. "I hate being a meat pony, its not just the whole being raped and tortured."

"Its around this time that you tell me about the very first meat pony that you sold."

"The first one? It was a clone of me. I made her from the mirror pool myself. I... I liked her. It was kinda nice having some pony who knew everything about me. My secret fetishes. My hopes and dreams, she knew everything. When I had problems running my kingdom she was there to help. She even helped me design the factory. She was like the sister I never had." Twilight said her memories coming back to her.

"And what happened to her?" Fluttershy asked careful not to upset her.

"It was finally time for her to be brought to the humans. I came with her, held her hoof as we drove to the portal. I was there when we delivered her to the humans. Before she went she told me something that I'd never forget. She said she was more than willing to die to protect Equestria and she would do it a thousand times if she had to. She walked through the portal. They jumped on her, and..." Twilight trailed off. "It was awful. I was heart broken. I wanted to hurt the humans, but Celestia didn't let me. I told Celestia that we would never sell another meat pony ever again."

Fluttershy nodded.

"What made you change your mind?" she asked.

"On the way home, I saw a filly. She was starving, I could see her ribs poking out of her skin. She was dying. I went to the market and bought the store's last piece of bread they had and gave it to her. She was so happy. She just kept thanking me over and over again for the bread.

That's when I decided I couldn't just let Equestria wither and die. I would have to keep selling meat ponies. I finished the construction of the factory and moved KARiN in and she took care of the messy part. All I did was do the mirror pool part. Over time I started to hate the clones. I'm not sure why, but I think it was a coping mechanism. If I didn't hate them, I wouldn't be able to do my job for the good of Equestria.

Fluttershy nodded. She had clearly heard this story about 100 times, but she was asking Twilight to retell it for her benefit.

"And that is why you hate your current situation so much. You hated meat ponies, but now you are one of them and you don't know how to deal with it. Let me ask you something if you don't mind. Is the goal of feeding Equestria still worth it even though you are a humble meat pony?"

Twilight didn't even have to think about it.

"Yes, of course it is." Twilight said growing in determining. "Even though what I have to go through may be horrible, I have a duty to Equestria as its princess"

Dr. Fluttershy smiled. "It sounds like you have regained at least some meaning in your life."

"Thanks Doctor. I feel a whole lot better now that I realize that my life is worth something.

"I'm happy to help." said Dr. Fluttershy. "Now that you've calmed down a little bit, I think you are ready to go see KARiN."

As if on cue the elevator doors opened inviting her into its interior.

Twilight filled with a new sense of purpose stepped into the elevator doors.

"By the way Twilight, be careful of a Twilight clone with a bite taken out of her ear. Everypony in the factory calls her Princess Munch, but don't call her that to her face. She's nice, but... a little bit clingy to KARiN.

"What do you mean by clingy?"

Before she could answer the elevator door closed cutting her off. And Twilight began her descent again into the factory.

***

Dr. Fluttershy leaned back in her chair congratulating herself with another sip from her apple juice, another clone saved thanks to the work of doctor Fluttershy. She loved her job. Most of the time...

"Ok, next." she said, and an angry Lyra immediately burst through the door.

"I! WANT! OUT!" she yelled at Dr. Flutters scaring the bejesus out of her.

"Please don't shout dear and try to calmly tell me what's wrong." said Fluttershy.

"What's wrong you ask! How about this whole stinkin factory! If I get raped one more time I swear to Celestia I'll find KARiN and shove my horn up her android ass!" shouted Lyra flailing about the room in a panic.

"I thought you didn't mind getting raped or eaten as long as you got to see humans. Isn't that why you signed up in the first place, Lyra? You're only a few months away from shipment." said Dr. Flutters in an attempt to calm her down.

"Yeah, I was ok with it at first because I thought that I'd be having sex with beautiful humans and when they were finished I'd get to become one with their bodies. But nopony said I'd be getting raped by other ponies. I want out! And I want out now!" She said yelling the last sentence.

"I know Lyra, but if you could wait just a few more months I'm sure-" said Dr. Flutters.

"No, screw you I'm getting out of here now! And you're not going to stop me! " She screamed a battle cry and ran at Fluttershy with the intent to kill.

Sometimes Dr. Flutters really hated her job.

Two pairs of mechanical arms caught Lyra's front and back legs, Lyra struggled to escape, but the arms held tight. Too tight. Both of Lyra's front hooves were crushed off by the pure power of the mechanical arms, spraying Fluttershy's face with a bit of blood.

The arms released Lyra and she fell to the floor screaming curses at Fluttershy.

Dr. Fluttershy stood out of her chair and began to walk towards Lyra, moving very slowly and carefully. Standing up Lyra was able too see that instead of wings attached to her back were four mechanical Doctor Octopus style robotic arms.

"I'm sorry Lyra, I'm not quite used to these yet. I'll try to make the rest of this as painless as possible for you." Lyra tried to get away, but she wasn't good at walking on her back legs and she just flailed around on the floor trying to escape Fluttershy's loving arms as they grabbed her by the neck.

She opened the grinder that was built into the wall.

"Sorry Lyra, nobody is going to want to buy you with your attitude and injuries. I did my best, but there was nothing I could do." she said sadly.

"And there's only one thing I can do with a pony I can't fix."

"Please no. "

"Are you scared Lyra? I used to be scared of flying, but now I don't have to worry about it. KARiN replaced my wings with these arms so they I could work with my patients without worrying about them attacking me." said Fluttershy. "She could have made you better too, if you only gave her a chance."

"Please."

Fluttershy began to sing.

"Hush now quiet now it's time to lay your sleepy head,
hush now quiet now it's time to go to bed..."

She held Lyra over the grinder head first

"Please don't do it Fluttershy I'll be good! I'll get raped like a good girl!"

"Drifting off to sleep.
Exciting day behind you."

Lyra kept begging her to stop, but Fluttershy had tuned it out by now. She had done this many times and thier pleading had become desensitized for her.

"Drifting off to sleep

Let the joy of dreamland find you"

Fluttershy forced Lyra horn first into the grinder. It made a sickening sound as it chewed through her skull and brain. Her body spasmed a little bit until it went completely limp, as it was chewed up by the grinder. Her beautiful flank was eaten away by the mechanical teeth, then the remainder of her legs and finally her tail was the last to disappear into the grinder.

"Hush now quiet now..."

Sometimes this job sucked.

Fluttershy cleaned up the blood and sat back down at her desk determined to succeed next time.

"Bring in the next one please"

***

Twilight rode the elevator lower and lower into the factory. She no longer worried about how she was going to be raped, eaten or tortured though, she was thinking about how much her sale could benefit the children of Equestria.

The elevator began to slow down.

Alright Twilight this is it, I'm finally going to meet KARiN. I've seen her before a few years ago. she had looked a lot like her sister GLaDOS, but thinner and a little less advanced, but their was a possibility that she may have done some rearranging of her cores

The elevator door opened.

"Hello Twilight number 301" She said in her seductive cold robot voice. "Lets get right down to business shall we?"

Twilight's jaw dropped to the floor shocked.

This wasn't how she had envisioned this part of the factory.

And this certainly wasn't the same KARiN she had installed years ago.

Not at all.
