“Silence Grave, fetch me the Libris Mortis Exhaltum, volume Four.” Twilight said coolly as she entered the fourth week of her self imposed 'exile' in the Forsaken Halls. She was not wearing the goggles anymore, completely used to the shadows in the corners of her eyes.

The skeletal 'Alicorn' flew to where the book was stored, with six more volumes in that collection to go. 'He' retrieved the tome and flew back, placing the book to his master's side.

Twilight floated the book onto the desk and flipped through it till she found a certain page.

“Silence Grave, how would you like to be able to speak? It would be nice to have some real conversation.” Twilight's ears twitched. “Not that you're not 'so' much fun...” She spoke to the air, and received hushed whispers. “Quit complaining. I'm going to put you to good use and give you a mouth, but if you talk too much, I'll end the enchantment.”

Her horn glowed a dark purple with pale white motes. Runes appeared all over Silent Grave, then faded into him.

“Silence Grave, what is my name.”

“Dark Mistress Twilight Deathspark.” A haunting, cold and emotionless voice spoke.

Twilight rubbed her temples. “My name is Twilight Sparkle... Where did you get the rest of that? And Deathspark I don't get it.”

Her skeletal minion remained still and silent for but a few seconds. “Dark Mistress, the title you have earned for your mastery over death weaving. Deathspark, to signify your evolution from a lesser being into an immortal.”

Twilight raised an eye. “Immortal? Since when did I become Immoral? I don't feel any different.”

Silence Grave was silent again for a short while before answering. “Our Dark Mistress has achieved immortality upon completion of the Infinitium Exrealim Verstis Immortalis.”

Twilight looked at the ancient tome in question. She didn't recall reading the book in full. She did remember opening it to start reading, and then closing it, having apparently been at the final page. She had not dared touch the book again for some reason.

“Very well, return the Infinitium Exrealim Verstis Immortalis to the shelf.” Twilight grinned. (Deathspark... I like it.) She then got back to work.

After only a few minutes, her ears twitched.

The silence.

She looked up at her servant, who had just returned from putting the tome away. “I'm releasing your voice. This silence is maddening, more so than the whispering.” She released the spell on Silence Grave, and the whispers returned.

Twilight sighed, oddly relaxed. “Much better.”
...

Blackthorn's lair was now an hour flight into the Everfree Forest. Well, an hour flight for Flutter or even Rainbow Dash. Most other Pegasai would require at least two or three hours to reach here.

Flutter flew freely and high in the sky, knowing that no pony would ever know she was here.

She flew toward a massive tree that towered over the rest of the forest and landed on one of the five length wide branches that stretched for over a hundred lengths strait out.

Gripped in her teeth was her latest prey, still alive, but unable to move. An unfortunate camper.

Flutter's long, slender tail was strong and flexible, almost like a snake's tail. It was tipped with a slender, needle-like needle that could inject a slow acting paralyzing poison.

This latest transformation had began almost a week ago, and had been quite painful.

Flutter could not argue with the results. It was quite an interesting and fun little tool.

Her hooves had split into three and sharpened into sharp claw-hooves.

Her teeth were fully feline, which had began to change when she began consuming the flesh of ponies. Her favorite part was the heart and eyes.

Flutter's tongue could stretch out to nearly the length of her head, and was VERY flexible, and rough, like a cat's tongue.

Flutter released her prey, a female unicorn. Bright pink coat, dark green/light green striped mane and tail, green eyes and a watermelon slice cutie mark.

“Hmm, that was a fun little chase you gave me.” Flutter smiled, moments before she bit onto Melon's hind ankle, digging teeth into the bone. She then dragged the paralyzed unicorn into a large opening in the tree.

The opening went deep into the trunk, into a large hollow. The walls were lines with natural platforms and shelves.

The shelves were full of skulls, hundred and hundreds of skulls, mostly pony, but there was also human, gryphon, a few smaller dragon skulls and many more. Flutter didn't know what most of those skulls were, but did not worry.

“Mama's home. I've brought you fresh meat.” She almost sang out.

Melon heard a soft thump behind her, then a soft growl.

“Now now. Mama will feed you. Don't you worry.” Flutter smiled down at Melon. “You said your name was Melon, right?” She licked the horn, her tongue wrapping around and gently caressing it.

Melon blushed from the attention. She could not move at all, not even to scream, or whimper. She could not even move her eyes.

But she could feel everything.

The pain on her legs, her burning lungs from the terrifying chase through the dark forest.

Her coat was covered in cuts and scratches from the many thorn bushes she had ran through, and every one of them hurt.

All she could see was the pony monster's tongue 'tasting' her horn.

“Mmm. Sweet, like ripe watermelon.” Flutter giggled, then started sucking on the horn.

Melon's face was bright red at this sensation. (S... stop it. Please stop this. This is wrong. It's...)

CRUNCH!!!

Imagine having one of your nice, shiny and healthy teeth suddenly 'bitten' off right at the gums. Now multiply that by ten.

Melon's head felt like it had just been ripped apart. Tears poured from her eyes. She wanted to shut them so she didn't have to watch this monstrosity chewing away at her horn, then swallowing it.

“You tasted so good.” Flutter licked at the bloody stump, then sucked some of the blood out. Melon then watched in horror as Flutter kissed her, full on the mouth. Forcing her own blood into her mouth.

The taste wanted to make her vomit, but her body would not even do that for her, and not even as the blood poured down her throat and into her belly.

“Don't you agree? You taste so good.” Flutter's long tongue flicked out and licked down Melon's face, jaw, neck, chest, belly, nipples, where she played for a bit.

The pain in her head blinded out almost all of the minor pleasure this attention was creating. Then the tongue went lower, and inside.

The pain never receded, but the pleasure rose to blend with it.

Melon's breathing increased, faster and faster as the tongue invaded her.

Had she been able she would have screamed as she came. Pain and pleasure were fully one now... for the moment.

The tongue withdrew, taking away the pleasure, allowing the pain to return in full force.

It then suddenly increased as sharp teeth tore into her privates, ravaging it and ripping chunks off. Melon watched, unable to do anything at all as the meat was chewed slowly and swallowed.

“Oh, that was even better than your horn. I love virgins.” Flutter smiled at her beautiful, monstrous baby, which was nearly the same size as her now.

His claws and teeth were coming in nicely. Soon, he wold be able to join in on the hunts.

Flutter then began ripping into Melon, tearing her apart and feeding her to Whisper Wing. He happily ate what he was fed and never complained when Mama would eat her favorite parts. The horn was always the first thing to go, if a Unicorn. The wings were always ripped off any Pegasus, just to be sure they didn't somehow escape.

She would then pleasure the victim's genitals, one last time, with her tongue and mouth, before brutally ripping them out and eating them. She would then feed Whisper Wing his favorite parts, mainly the nice meaty internal organs.

Flutter was very happy to find her strange magical venom not only paralyzed her prey, taking nearly an hour (of hunting and terrorizing). Once paralyzed, the prey would not die unless the heart or brain was too heavily damaged, even if the body was drained of blood.

Fluttershy always made sure to have drained the victim of most of their blood, usually shortly after the paralysis took effect.

After the best organs were consumed, Flutter would use her prehensile tongue and mouth to slowly suck out the eyes.

Melon almost welcomed the darkness as hers were sucked from their sockets, but the sound of them being chewed and eaten was sickening.

Finally, oh yes, finally Melon knew no more as her heart was ripped out and eaten by Flutter.

The rest of the flesh was stripped from the bones and fed to Whisper Wing. After eating, he would breath an acid on the skull, which melted everything but the bone itself.

The skull was then added to the collection on one of the shelves.

After the feeding, Flutter would snuggle and sing Whisper Wing to sleep before heading back home, washing up and reverting to Fluttershy along the way.
...

A week after the lone traveling Watermelon merchant had vanished...

Applejack approached Fluttershy's cottage. It was very early in the morning, but she had to talk with her friend.

She was a little surprised to see the Pegasus Pony trotting out of the Everfree Forest, carrying a little basket filled with flowers.

“Mornin Sugarcube.” Applejack called out.

Fluttershy was startled by the sudden call. “Eep” She jumped and bolted behind a bush. Only her wide gentle eyes peaked out.

“Applejack?” She said softly, poking her head out from the flowering bush.

“It's just me.” Applejack chuckled as Fluttershy emerged and picked the dropped basket.

Applejack helped pick up the scattered flowers. “Ah didn't mean ta startle ya.”

“It's, um, it's alright.”

AJ smiled brightly. “Well, Ah was just comin by to ask ya fer yer help. Th' sheep are not wanting to come outta their pens fer some reason. They asked to see you specifically.”

“Me?” Fluttershy's eyes almost seemed to smile. “Oh of course. I'd love to help.” Her ears twitched slightly and she sniffed the air. “But there's a storm coming from over the Everfree.”

“Storm's ah comin'? Well, that might explain th' sheep actin all sheepish.” Applejack chuckled. “Think you can come over and have a chat with em?”

“Of course. Let me just feed my animals.”
...

Fluttershy walked up to the sheep and smiled kindly. “Whatever is the matter? Can you feel the storm coming?”

The sheep were all huddled together.

“You can feel a storm is coming from the Everfree, but you don't have to be afraid. It won't be here till tonight.”

The sheep seemed to relax as Fluttershy told them about the incoming storm.

“Out wool is really feeling funny.” The lead sheep replied. A few random sparks of static would jump about on occasion, making the sheep flinch. Apparently the static in the air was reacting with their wool coats, making them feel uncomfortable.

“You needn't be afraid.” Fluttershy smiled at the huddled group. “I'm sure Applejack can make room for you in the barn tonight, would you like that?”

The sheep nodded, his small curled horns catching Fluttershy's attention. (Such pretty horns. A shame my baby doesn't have any.) She thought. “Why don't you try to relax and enjoy the day.”

“We'll try, but the air is just so heavy.”

Fluttershy nodded and continued telling them that they had nothing to worry about. “Storms like this are rare, but they never do any real harm, other than blowing down branches and making a lot of sound. The lightening and thunder will be scary, but the barn has a lightening rod on it, so you should be protected.” She turned to Applejack. “Right Applejack?”

“Ah course. Ya'll more than welcome to shelter there tonight.” Applejack gave a reassuring smile.

“Well, ok. Thank you Applejack. Thank you Fluttershy.” The lead sheep then turned to his fellow sheep. “You all heard Fluttershy and Applejack. We can stay in the barn till the storm passes.”

They all cheered happily, then followed the pair of ponies to the barn. Once they were squirreled away and cozy, Applejack turned to Fluttershy.

“Ah dun know what Ah'd do without ya.” Applejack smiled as she headed outside.

Behind the farm Pony, and unseen by the sheep, Fluttershy grinned, her small fangs visible. (One could only wonder by dear friend.) She glanced back at the sheep and smiled cutely. “You stay in here, The storm will have passed by morning.” She then trotted after Applejack.

Outside, she spotted Rainbow Dash landing near Applejack. “Hey AJ. I came to warn you about a big storm rolling in from the Everfree. It'll be here by evening.”

“Ah know 'bout it already. Fluttershy told me an' helped me with the sheep. They're downright spooked.”

Dash looked at Fluttershy, a little surprised. “Hiya Shy. How'd you know about the storm? You're no weather pony.”

“My little animal friends in the forest told me about it.” She lied. She could feel the power in the air. It would definitely be a strong lightening and thunder storm. “They said there's a lot of static in the air.”

“Oh, of course the animals would be able to feel it. Specially the birds.” Dash chuckled. “I'm even going to be bringing my house down to the ground so it doesn't get hit by lightening again. That was a real shocker last time.”

Fluttershy remembered that storm from a few years ago. It had frightened her tremendously and she had actually hidden in her cellar, a place she was normally too scared to even enter on a bright sunny day.

“And I don't want to have to tow my house back from half way across Equestria again.”

“Ah remember that storm. Fluttershy helped me out with mah animals that time too.”

“It was so frightening.” Fluttershy shivered.

“Ya'll welcomed to stay with the Apple family for th' night.”

“I'd love too, but the weather team has to keep an eye out for anything that could go wrong. Heck, an old friend of my family is coming in from Cloudsdale to help out. Lightening Rod is the only pony I know who can take a hit from lightening and laugh about it.”

“Oh that sounds dangerous.” Fluttershy whimpered. “That is dangerous, right?”

“I've been hit once. Spent a month in recovery.” Dash shuddered. “That's why we called him in to protect the weather team.”

“Good call Sugercube.” Applejack 'brohoofed' Rainbow Dash. “Ya'll keep Ponyville safe, y'hear?”

“Can do. I gotta go and warn a few others who live in the area. Take care.” Dash then tore into the sky and vanished from view.

Fluttershy's eyes flickered red for a moment, unseen by the blond pony. “I should get home and make sure all the animals will be safe.” She waved and, much to Applejack's surprise, flew off, quite quickly too.

(She flew plenty quick there... but then, she's always worryin 'bout her critters.) AJ shrugged and got to work, preparing the farm for the storm.
...

Fluttershy tended to her animals, loving and kind as always. They had no clue about her inner thoughts.

But Fluttershy did. She could feel the connection between her and her beautiful baby. She could sometimes, almost hear his thoughts.

He never spoke, but his eyes showed a level of intelligence that could rival Twilight's, or even the Princesses.

(Mama is so proud of you Sweetheart. You're growing stronger and stronger. I can't wait till you can join me on the hunt. It will be so much fun.) She looked out the window and saw the four small graves. She knew now that Angel's death couldn't have been an accident. But she didn't worry about that.

(It's been a week, and Melon is stripped to the bone. I'm going to have to hunt again, but I don't have the time to find any lone travelers or campers... This storm will make finding them almost impossible...) She fumed as she entered the bathroom and shut the door.

She looked at herself in the mirror, blood dripping from her eyes, forming blood red stripes down each side of her face.

Her coat darkened to a deeper yellow. Mane and tail went wild and feral, shifting from pale pink to a blood red, that turned to a coal black at the tips.

Her teeth elongated, sharpening to deadly points. Her pupils narrowed to slits while the soft green darkened, and was streaked with red. The whites shifted to a disturbing black.

She looked down at her forehooves, watching them crack and spit into three, shifting and sharpening to become deadly weapons.

Her tail stretched to nearly one and a half times her full length, becoming flexible and serpentine, and tipped with a thin stinger, much like a scorpion's.

Her wings grew longer, slender, and strong.

Flutter grinned. Her body had also grown a full hoof taller, with sexy sleek muscles rippling under her slightly feral coat.

Her grin widening and allowing her mouth to open twice as wide as any normal pony could. Her long, very flexible tongue hanging out between her fangs, drool dripping onto the floor.

“Mama is so beautiful.” She whispered to herself, her voice dark, husky and sexy.

She then sensed a presence approaching. It took only seconds to transform back. She didn't really even feel the shifting and cracking of bones or feel the tightening of her muscles.

Flutter loved how it felt.
...

She was Fluttershy's neighbor, though she didn't know the yellow Pegasus all that well.

Still, she knew that the shy pony was really good with animals, and her pet bird had just hurt his wing.

The parrot had freaked out for some reason and flew through her house till he hurt his wing. She managed to put him in a cage and was now carrying him to the 'Druid' pony of Ponyville.

She reached out with a hoof to knock at the door when it simply opened. Fluttershy stood there for a second before jumping back and squeaking in surprise.

“Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to startle you. My bird hurt his wing and...”

Fluttershy was right there in a flash. “Oh you poor thing. Please, bring him inside and I'll see what can do.”

“Thank you. Oh, I'm...”

“Carrot Top. I know.” Fluttershy smiled sweetly. “We've been neighbors for years.”

“Oh, I... um... I didn't know you knew me.”

Fluttershy's smile didn't face as she fawned over the parrot. “Oh you poor wittle thing. Let Fluttershy see your wing. This might hurt a little, but I need to stretch it out.” She then glanced back at Carrot Top. “I'll bring him home once I've tended to his wing, is that alright with you?”

“Oh, sure. Of course that's alright.”

Fluttershy nodded. “Oh yes. There's a big storm coming on from the forest. It's too big for the weather teams to break up.”

“Yea, Silver Lining and Skyline came and warned me earlier.”

“They make such a cute couple.” Fluttershy blushed a little. “But, I have work to do. Be careful you don't trip or stub your hoof on the way home.” (Or let the door hit you in the hindquarters on the way out.) She added to herself.

“Oh, well, thank you, and thanks for taking care of Boxer. He's one of my best friends.”

“Didn't you used to have a bunny?” Fluttershy suddenly asked as Carrot Top was half way out the door.

“Yea, but then she started having babies and they started raiding my carrot garden. I had to release them into the forest before they destroyed my entire crop.”

“Oh, that's why the bunny population exploded last year.” She smiled. “Well, take care.”

“You too.”

(I'll be seeing you later tonight.) She grinned as the door closed. (Seems I won't have to go far to get something to eat.)
...

The shadows in the corners of her eyes were no longer shapeless.

They were the skittering forms of ponies who had tried to learn this magic, and failed so horribly. So horribly that their souls ripped themselves from their bodies and returned to this forsaken place.

Twilight grinned as she gathered one of them and bound it to her will. The specter thrashed and screamed in silence as it was forced to submit. Oh, it had fought back, and had caused harm, but the Mistress's will was far too strong.

Twilight watched as the black form changed to a pale, ghostly magenta ball of light. It floated around her, staying just out of her sight, or occasionally in the corner of her vision.

Twilight looked at her left foreleg. It had been blackened, and she couldn't feel it anymore. Still, she could move it with no difficulty. It had been the price she had paid to gain a new servant.

Now that she knew how to bind them, she could learn how to take precautions so she would not have to pay such a price ever again.

Dark Lady Twilight Deathspark's eyes flickered dark violet as she pressed on with her studies.
