Applebloom slowly bounded through the thick underbrush of the Everfree forest. On her back she carried various potions and and a strange variety of Bottles in her saddle bag.

In recent weeks Applebloom had been receiving training from Zecora in the production of Potions, and every so often Zecora would instruct her to dispose of failed Potion mixes and experiments in a nearby cave. But on her first expedition Applebloom found that the cave had collapsed. So without telling Zecora, Applebloom had been Dumping the discarded Potions in a far off part of the Everfree.

The section of the Everfree was the creepiest part Applebloom had ever seen, Everything in it was dead, the trees, the grass, and not a single animal inhabited the place. She had stumbled upon it by chance after discovering the collapsed cave.

Applebloom’s hooves crunched on the dead dry leaves on the ground as she entered the clearing, broken bottles from previous disposal runs littered the ground. She removed her Saddlebags and began her ritual of dumping all the bottles out on to the dark black soil. Applebloom had dumped about three bottles out when she felt something that made her stop.

The ground beneath her hooves had begun to shake, the sound of tearing soil erupted from the ground as a single rotten tan hoof popped from the dirt.

Applebloom dropped a bottle in shock as the hoof slowly grew into a whole pony. The Pony got to his hooves and stood before her at an odd angle.

The Stallion that rose from the dirt was not a normal pony, He had a dry rotten tan coat and a tombstone for a cutie mark. He had a huge gaping wound in his side exposing several vital organs that were all black with age, a burning cigarette hung from his mouth, he wore a tattered brown suit complete with jacket and Hat. But worst of all he had simply the ugliest tie Applebloom had laid eyes on.

“Excuse me sir, but what possessed you to wear the tie this mornin?” Applebloom asked.

The previously dead pony responded by looking down at the filly. The Stallion pounced on her brought his jaw right on top of Applebloom’s head before she could even squeak. He bit her skull open with a sickening *Crack! Then proceeded to eat away at the small supply of gray matter beneath. After a few bites he found her Brain stem, He took in in his teeth and popped it from the fillies body with a audible *Pop! He let the fillies body fall listlessly to the ground, a look of shock frozen in her milky dead eyes.

The Zompony felt refreshed with his newest meal, then noticed the something was wrong. Ponies didn’t typically rise from a unmarked grave and eat the brains of other ponies. The Zompony tried to remember what had happened but I guess being dead doesn’t do much for the mind. The Zompony groaned with frustration, he then got an idea. He dug through his coat, after a few seconds he fished out a Seven rusty bits and a moth eaten card. On the card it said,

“Official license of door to door sale Snubbed life.”

Okay so what he got from it was he was a door to door salespony named Snubbed life, who eats brains. First things first, Snubbed life was a crappy name, the Zompony decided that he would be called Snubbs from now on, because it sounded really cool.

“Brains,” a light voice moaned.

Snubbs looked up and found that the corpse of his previous victim had reanimated and was stumbling around. Snubbs decided to ask her where the nearest town was, he gave her a warm smile through his partially decomposed lips and asked,

“Brains?”

The little filly stopped limping around and stared at Snubbs blankly, then when back to stumbling around like a idiot.

Snubbs groaned again and decided to find a town on his own, he picked a direction and started limping into the forest.

The Undead filly however had come over a huge craving for brains, a small primeval instinct drove her in a direction where she knew there would be plenty of brains. She shuffled through the bushes of the Everfree for about an hour. Until she reached her destination, A large apple orchard. She limped and moaned through the wide expansion of trees and climbed the steps of the dry wooden porch to the farmhouse.

“Brrraaa-aa-aaaaaiins,” She chimmed.

The sound of heavy Hoofsteps echoed within, the door opened to a large red stallion who jumped with shock at the sight of Applebloom. “Applejack! get some towels! Appleblooms home and she’s bleeding!” The Stallion screamed, then took Applebloom in his hooves.

A Orange mare by the name Applejack upstairs panicked when he heard him shout, She quickly left her room and ran to the bathroom. As Applejack gathered several towels she heard her brother Big Mac scream, She hurried to prevent him from getting too hysterical and ran down the stairs. She entered the living room and froze with shock at what she saw.

Big Mac lay on the ground ideally twitching with with life leaving his body as Applebloom had her entire muzzle in Big Mac’s Skull chewing away at it’s contents.

“Applebloom,...no,...what's happened?” Applejack choked.

Applebloom finished her meal, she took a few steps back, then pounced on Applejack.

The sound of screaming echoed through the rural area as one Sister,...ate another.

Snubbs fought his way out of the final bushes of the Everfree, her eventually broke free into a clearing. Snubbs let out a sigh of relief and removed the twigs and burs to on his tattered suit, he tried to fill his lungs with the fresh morning air when he realized,

Zomponys don’t need air, being a Zompony was more complicated than Snubbs knew.

Snubbs pondered a little bit, then turned his attention to something off in the distance. He saw a bright and colorful town and instantly something clicked in his mind.

“Thats where it happened, that town right there is were I,...I….died,” Subbs thought to himself.

Snubbs adjusted his hat and marched (Well, shuffled like someone who had been dead) towards the town, it was an uneventful trip until he entered the town. When he entered Ponies everywhere emmedly started to gawk at him.

“Who is that?”

“Why, he looks dead on his feet,”

“How can he walk with that gaping wound in his chest?”

“How did he think that he would pull off the awful tie?”

Okay, Snubbs had to admit that the comment about his tie hurt but he still cared little about the opinions of those around him. Until he started feeling hungry, Snubbs felt his insides rumble. Snubbs looked around and spotted a bright pink building that looked to be made of candy, Quickly Snubbs shuffled through the front door.

‘Now Pinkie when a customer orders something a little unorthodox we still have to cater to them,” Mrs Cake explained.

“But almonds in a super chocolate surprise is anarchy!! everypony knows that almonds only go good with coconut!!” Pinkie shouted hysterically.

“Be that as it may Dear but we are a place of business, we need to cater to all of our customer’s needs to survive,”

*Sigh “ Ookie Dookie Lookie,” Pinkie said sadly.

“Good, now Mr Cake is in the kitchen why don’t you go wait tables for a while okay?”

“Okay,”

Rarity worked silently on her latest order, she hummed happily and basked in the tranquility.

*Knock*Knock*Knock.

“Oh,....Sweetie can you get that? My hooves are a bit full,”

The pitter patter of her Sisters hooves traveled from her room upstairs to the front door.

She opened it and daylight filled the main room of Raritys boutique.

“Oh hey Applebloom what's up? and what did you with your hair? and the chunk of your head thats missing? Wait,..what are you doing? No No No NO OH CELESTIA NO!! AARRRAAGGGGLLELELLLE,”

Rariy decided that she did not like the sound of the game her Sister and her Friend were playing, She turned off her sewing machine and went to investigate.

“Sweetie? is there somthing wrong?” Rarity turned the corner to the main room and was met with a blank glassy eyed Big Mac.

“Eeeenope,” Big mac moaned then wrapped his massive jaw around Rarity’s Forehead.

Snubbs entered the eating establishment and stood in the doorway, the conversations carried by the customers ceased, Snubbs shuffled uncomfortably before a bright pink mare bounced up to him.

“Hi! welcome to Sugar Cube Corner! My names Pinkie Pie you can take a seat anywhere you like and let me say that the tie you are wearing looks absolutely funtastic!” Pinkie shouted.

Snubbs felt flattered by Pinkie’s comment and sat at the front counter.

“Okay, now let me take your order,”

“Brains!” Snubbs moaned as politely as he could.

Pinkie gave Snubbs a concerned look, then shrugged.

“Ookie Dokie Lokie,”

After the energetic waitress left Snubbs went back to pondering life,...err,death,...whatever. “It was sompony here who killed him, somepony important,.hmmmm,”

“Pinkie what are you doing? wait no no NO NO!”a male voice shouted followed by a gruesome *Crack!

Snubbs head began to hurt, he just couldn’t remember. Maybe he would think better with a full stomach.

“Order up!’ The Pink Mare giggled and threw a plate of steaming pink brain flesh in front of him.

Speaking of which, Snubbs picked up a fork and began eating his meal slowly, Still Pondering his situation.

“Hey I’ve never seen you around Before! And I know everypony! when your done we go see the sights! I can introduce you to all my friends! there Applejack, Rarity, Twilight sparkle,...”

That was it, those four syllables sent Snubbs’s mind into a frenzy, he now had a name.

“Twwwiiilligghhtt Ssspaarklle,” Snubbs moaned. He got up, left three bits on the counter and turned to leave.

“Wait where are you going?” Pinkie asked.

“Oh my dear Celestia! what happened to my Husband!? Mrs Cake yelled hysterically.

Pinkie took in a deep breath, “Okay Pinkie, just remember what she told you and tell her right back,”

Snubbs Quickly Hobbled out of the restaurant and franticly sprinted down the street. Everything came flooding back he remembered everything, Every last nauseating detail of how Twilight Sparkle became his murderer.
