A Wonderful Colour Crimson Is

III. A Wonderful Colour Crimson Is

The mare smiled, deep crimson liquid running down her face in streams before dripping off her chin.

The mare had moved quickly, forcefully driving the sharp tip of her horn into the abdomen of the Earth pony as he cowered against the wall, now gaping at the air.

Slowly the mare backed away, flicking her head towards the Pegasus, the splatter of blood trailed along the floor at the mares hooves.

"Run ." The mare teased as the Pegasus backpedaled, stumbling over his own hooves before crawling out the door. The mare grinned, pleased.

"Mia!" The mare yelled for her assistant who came in the door as soon as her name was called.

The young mare peered through the crack in the door, the light glimmered off the silvery stands of her mane as her deep blue eyes scanned the room.

"Send for a clean up team..." The mare ordered, her tone hushed and calm as she took off her glasses and wiped them briefly on the thick white coat of her chest, staining it red.

The mare grumbled quietly. "Oh well...." She sighed as she lifted the pair of glasses back to her muzzle as her assistant nodded and immediately handed the mare what looked like a handkerchief.

The mare hesitated slightly before reaching out a hoof and taking the small square of material and nodding to the young mare who simply smiled sweetly in return. The mare wiped her face, the thick blood smearing across her pale complexion.

It wasn't long after another crack of thunder shook the ground from above. The lights swayed gently as they started to flicker, the mares gaze followed the standard lights as the hung from the ceiling.

Soon a small group of ponies walked through the door the the mares office, wearing protective masks and carrying crates of supplies. Already the stench of the strong chemicals made the mare almost turn her head.

"You know what to do." The mare exclaimed before walking to the door, eyeing one of the cleaning staff as she walked past.

"Wait! Ma'm!" One called after her as she hovered a hoof in the air, about to take a step outside the door.

The mare stood, waiting for the stallion to continue. Slowly he hesitated, looking to his colleges before answering.

"H-he... He's still alive, Ma'm...." Slowly the mare peered over her shoulder, looking at the heap that was her victim, now being propped up against the wall by another pony.

"Hmph." The mare scoffed lightly before turning back from the insubordinate. "To the Red Wall then." With that the mare walked out of the office, leaving the cleaning staff with a look of utter shock.
