Pretty Rave Mares

Chapter 2

          When the siblings all got to the Ponyville arcade, Devlin quickly started to play a racing game. Gami and TayTay were going to play against each other, like usual. And Zo just planned to play the basketball toss game. Jade enjoyed playing various arcade games, but her sisters and brother only liked specific ones.

          Jade trotted over to the toss-at-the-screen game. "Oh well," she sighed, and got a ball with her right forehoof. When she was told what her target was, she started throwing balls at them. But then she heard a scream.

          "What the hell was that?" Zo asked, slightly startled and alarmed.

          "How the buck should I know? Jade's the one who was born with psychic abilities!" Devlin snapped at his sister.

          "Maybe we should..." TayTay paused to gulp. "Check it out..." she finished, sounding shook up.

          "Well, go on!" Gami pressed, giving Jade a little push. Jade turned her head to her, and scowled. Then, she trotted to where the scream came from, and opened the door.

          "Is anypony here?" She asked. There was dead silence, except for her and her four other siblings breathing. "Hello?" She asked again. Silence.

          "Let's go. I don't wanna be here anymore!" Devlin suggested. Jade nodded, and closed the door. As they approached the arcade doors, Devlin took a hoof, and started to push the door. It didn't open.

          "What the?!" He exclaimed, shocked and frightened. Gami, TayTay, and Zo all started praying that the doors would open, and that they could leave. Devlin pushed the door again, and it still didn't open.

          "Dammit!" He discouraged. "We're locked in..." He added lamely. Gami's coat furs started to stand up, as a cold breeze blew through the arcade. Then suddenly, all of the neon bright lights burst, and shut off.

          "What do we do now? Wait for mom to come and pick us up?" Zo rhetorically asked. Gami turned to TayTay, and Jade did as well.

          "Check your phone, and call mom!" Gami told TayTay. She nodded, and pulled her iPhone out. She started to dial Kara, but she didn't answer.

          "No answer..." TayTay sighed.

          "Try dad then..." Devlin suggested. TayTay nodded, and dialed Bud. His boss, Shot answered.

          "Hello?" He greeted.

          "Shot? Where's dad? This is his daughter TayTay." She panicked a bit.

          "Your dad accidentally left his phone at the bar. What's wrong, did something happen?"

          "We got locked in the damn arcade!" Devlin shouted in the background.

          "Devlin? What the-who else is with you, Tay?" Shot asked, concerned.

          "Zo, Gami and Jade...we were playing arcade games when we heard a scream come from the employee break room, and now all the lights are out, and the doors are jammed or something!" TayTay explained.

          "I'll be there to pick you five up in a few minutes, hang tight, kiddos." Shot finished, and hung up.

          "That went well..." Zo sighed.

          Just then, Jade had heard something, and turned to look and see. She started to back up, and her flank pressed against the doors as she pointed at what she saw. "Look..." She simply stated. All four of the siblings turned to see a figure of a pony, her mane halfway torn out of her head, her eyes mostly black, with red rims, and a demonic smile, with all teeth looking like fangs. They all panicked as they kept backing up. Eventually, the doors bust open and they galloped outside of the mall.

          "What the buck was that ugly thing?!" Gami asked.

          "A demon, that's what. Only such entities can cause things to burst spontaneously." Jade answered emotionless. Just then, Shot pulled up with his cart.

          "What the buck? I thought you kids were stuck in the arcade." He asked.

          "A demon scared us out." Jade replied. Shot's eyebrows raised, as if to say "really?".

          "Can we just leave, I was scared crapless back in there!" Devlin pleaded. Shot nodded, and he drove them back home in his cart.
