Truly Sleepless in Ponyville

The rain dropped heavily onto the roof, poor Scootaloo couldn't sleep as she tossed and turned in her bed. "I can't sleep, damn rain storm!" Scootaloo growled as she threw her pillow at the window in anger, she laid back down and tried again to drift to sleep. A Click was heard as the filly's bedroom window opened, a pale white colt entered and trotted toward the sleeping filly, he placed his hoof on her, she turned and screamed in fear. "I heard...you were having trouble sleeping." He said, she crawled back in fear, sweat dripped down the frightened filly's face. "W-What are you!?" She asked in fear, the white colt walked into the light and revealed the cuts around his muzzle  and his lack of eyelids.

"I'm Jeff.....I'm here to release you." Jeff said as he held a knife with his hoof, Scootaloo shirked. "Shhh, Don't be scared dear." Jeff said as he placed the blade near the young filly's neck. "I'm doing you a favor." Jeff stated as he whispered into her ear. "Now, Go...To...Sleep!" He yelled as he slashed the knife at the young Filly's throat...

(The Next Day)

Royal Guards surrounded the home, Twilight and her friends trotted towards the scene. "What's going on?" Twilight asked. "Somepony was murdered last night." One of the guards stated. "It was a filly." he stated, Dash's heart skipped a beat when she heard does words, Twilight turned to Dash. "Rainbow....I'm sorry." She said sadly, A tear ran down Dash's face as her expression turned from sad to angered. "Who the fuck did this!? I'll kick his ass!" Dash yelled in anger as tears continued leaking from her face. "We don't know, his blood stained hoof prints on the window frame is the only evidence we have." The guard replied, Dash ran into the house, she gasped at what she saw, Scootaloo was laying in her bed dead, her muzzle had been cut at the sides of her mouth into a form of some sick smile, Dash nearly vomited at the sight. "No....I...I....Scootaloo...." Dash said choking back tears, she ran back outside. "Tell me this isn't happening! This can't be!" Dash yelled at Twilight's face, at this point, even Pinkie had a sad look on her face.

(Meanwhile)

Jeff stood in the shadows, he had his hood on to avoid showing his face as his muzzle cuts were a dead give away. "Fuck, you should be thanking me." Jeff said to himself as he watched Dash from afar. "I couldn't kill you, your one of those damned elements." Jeff stated in anger. "But I guess this is close enough." Jeff said as he trotted away before anypony could discover him.

(Later)

The Mane Six stood in front of Princess Celestia. "Twilight, I'd like you and your friends to find whoever did this before he can take anypony else's life." Celestia said. "Yes but, we've defeated ponies like this before but ...they've never killed anypony." Twilight said, Celestia bowed her head. "I know." Celestia stated. "You bet we'll get this bastard!" Dash yelled, they all turned to her. "This guy killed Scootaloo, he's gonna pay!" Dash stated with full rage in her voice, the others decided Dash was right.
