Fear

Fear - Welcome To The Club (Human Story)

I sighed as I washed my hands, finishing another day of dreadful work. It's the same each day; work, work, work, work, break, work, leave. I took off my apron, and hung it up onto the wall. "Sunset Shimmer!" I heard my boss call me. I rushed over to him, almost tripping on my way there.

"Y-Yes, Sir Donut Joe.... um... Sir?" I stammered, standing up straight.

"Why weren't you here when I called you up earlier?! I called you about fifty gazillion times!" he demanded and slammed his hand onto the table, narrowing his eyes at me. I flinched.

"Uh, I-I didn't hear you, sir." I replied.

"Well, if you don't come the next time, then you're fired! You hear me? Fired!" he shouted, slamming his hands on the table again, making me take a step back.

"Y-Yes, sir!" I quickly nodded.

"Good. Now, don't be late tomorrow!" he finished, storming out of the room.

I sighed and walked out of the room, grabbing my coat from the hangers next to the back door. I walked out, breathing in the fresh, night air. I started walking but then, I heard giggling and laughter. I took a quick glance to my right, only to see a couple of teenagers. I've been seeing them out here for a couple of days now, it seems like this is there new hangout or something. One of them turned over to me and smiled. "Hey, girly! Why not get us some coke? You work here, right?" he said, pointing over to the restaurant. I sighed and shook my head. I knew I couldn't get them some free cokes, I'll get fired. I've been working there ever since I turned eleven. I used to be a little helper until my (bitchy fat-ass) boss said I was old enough to work at the dishes and as a waitress. It's been harder for me ever since my father died, I was thirteen when it happened.

"Sorry," I started, "I can't get you any free coke. I'll get fired."

"Oh, c'mon!" a girl with rainbow hair shouted at me, grinning, "You won't get in trouble!"

"Yeah!" Another said. "C'mon! Please, man!"

I sighed and walked to my car. I do so much sighing... it helps me calm down somehow.

The next day, I had no work. But, I did have school. I drove to school, and saw the teens I saw yesterday. I just realized they've been going to the same school as me. Canterlot High. Maybe I was just too busy thinking about other things to notice them.

"Hey!" one of the girls from last night shouted. "Over here!"

I took a step but hesitated, Should I...? I thought. I finally got the guts and walked over to them. "Yeah...?" I asked.

The girl smiled and flipped her purple hair, "I saw that you seemed lonely. So I decided to call you over."

I nodded, showing that I understood.

"My name's Rarity, this is Rainbow, Applejack, Soarin, and Pinkamena." she said, pointing at the other kids with her.

        "Sup?" they all said.

        "Uh, hi." I waved at them.

        "So, you lonely...? You can hang with us." Soarin said.

        "Um, ok... I'll hang with you guys!" I said. They seem cool... I thought.

        "Ok! But first," Pinkamena started, "You have to pass a test."

        "What kind...?" I asked.

        "You have to kill someone." Rarity smirked.

        "W-What?!" I shouted, my eyes wide.

        "Yeah! Kill someone." Soarin grinned. "Our group has to be awesome for a reason!"

        "You mean... you all killed someone just to get into some group?! You're murderers?!" I shouted.

        "Duh." Soarin rolled his eyes. It looked like he was trying to hide a chuckle, "Right, Rarity?"

        "Right."

        "W-Who do I have to kill...?" I asked, in a hushed voice.

        Rarity flipped her hair, "Anyone. Pick the person who loves to laugh at you. Who disrespects you. Who doesn't like you, and you don't like them."

        I thought for a moment... who do I hate...? My boss... Donut Joe. But, was I really going to kill just to get into some stupid group...?

                                                                                Yes.

        It was ten thirty at night. That's the time I was supposed to meet up with Rarity and the others. I smirked as I drove to the park. When I got there, I saw them, chatting. I walked over. Still smirking.

        "It's done." I said, interrupting them.

        "What's done...?" Applejack asked.

        "I killed my boss, Donut Joe."

        Rarity's eyes widened, "You actually did it...?"

        I nodded, "Yeah."

        "Dude! We were kidding!" Rainbow shouted.

        What? They're telling me just NOW?!

       "Kidding?! KIDDING?!" I shouted back at her.

        "Yes! You actually think that we killed people?!"

        "Oh, please, my boss is dead now and you just tell me this... MY BUCKING BOSS IS DEAD! YOU HEAR ME? DEAD RAINBOW!"

        Applejack flinched, I got a crazed look in my eyes as I took out the gun I used to kill Donut Joe. I raised it and pointed it to Rarity. Then moved on to Soarin, Applejack, Rainbow, and Pinkamena. All their eyes wide. They all took a step back, raising their hands.

        "Dang! Calm down, man!" Soarin said.

        "NO. YOU LIED... YOU ALL LIED TO ME! AND I DON'T TRUST YOU TO KEEP THIS A SECRET!" I started pulling the trigger.... ever so slowly.

        "Oh, shit!" Applejack shouted.

BAM!

        I shot her, right in the head.

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

        Three more bullets. Three more deaths. I grinned, welcome to the club, Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow, Pikamena, and Soarin.

Death...
