Chapter 2: Lightning Dust and Rainbow Dash's Test (The Wings Cutter)

After receiving a call, the downpour occurred in the Ponyville. Two police cars and one ambulance were driving through the street soaked in a rain. Three pegasi officers donned in a raincoats were also flying above the car.

"Oh, buck sake. This downpour-" said Officer Storm as he wiped out some droplets that got into his eyes."is making me can't see anything beyond 400 meters!"

"Well, at least it's not a storm" said male pegasus officer as he smirked.

"I hate your joke when it includes my name." replied Storm in a serious manner as they continue to head toward Rainbow Dash's residence.

30 MINUTES LATER

The pegasi officers landed as two police cars parked in front of the house, the female unicorn officer, Officer Denvy got out of the car along with other officers. "Alright, we know how we do this, right?" asked Denvy.

"Yes, Den. You ready for this Dot?" replied and asked Storm as he positioned himself at the doorway.

"As always" answered Dot as they breached the door, Storm aims his gun into the dimly lit house as Peridot saw a shadowy figure upstairs.

"I will check upstairs, both of you check downstairs. Got it?" said and asked Storm.

"Roger that!" replied Peridot and Denvy.

As the command had been given to the rest of the officers, Storm and one earth pony officers rushed upstairs. As soon as they reached upstairs, they heard someone's weeping coming from Dash's bedroom.

"Oh, that hardly explains why someone called us." said the earth pony officer.

The officer kicked the door opened, only to found Lightning Dust sobbing about her nightmarish experience. Beside her was Rainbow Dash sitting on the floor. Both of their wings were wounded.

5 MINUTES LATER

After minutes of investigation, they got two strange devices for evidence, one of them was the one that Lightning Dust was strapped in and died in, it was a metallic pole with multiple small blades attached to the small joints protruding from the sides of the poles and they saw three circular saw blades that was placed few inches away from where the victim are strapped, the saw blades will be few inches away from their back and the mechanism made it able to push itself toward the victim.

"I wonder who's able to construct these strange contraptions." asked Denvy as she inspected the device.

"You asked this in every crime scenes, Den. It can be any kind of pony.....the one which is really smart." replied Storm as he slowly pace around the room. "You found anything, Storm?"

"Nope, like always." answered Storm as he used the handheld scanner to search for magic traces. "Yeah, nothing." said Storm as he turned off the scanner.

After a while, the officers walked downstairs and they saw Frank, their fellow earth pony officer who just finished escorted Dash and Dust to the ambulance outside, the sirens were blaring along the red lights from it, the downpour were almost stopped, he turned his head around and said "You all got anything?". His answer was followed by the three officers shaking their heads.

"So, what did they say?" asked Denvy.

"Well, I got both the tape and Dash's story about what was happening here. They went to the hospital to fix and stitch up their wings." replied Frank "We'll talk about it at the department."

After the officers were back from their duty, the officers sat down on the chairs in the office.

"Go ahead, Frank. We're listening." said Storm.

"Alright, so, we found this tape in the bedroom, right? And we'll call the killer "Jigsaw", because every time the victim died, he'll cut their flesh into a jigsaw shape." said Frank

"So, what did Dash say?" asked Peridot.

"So, she said..." replied Frank as he began to tell what did she say.

FLASHBACK

After returning home from the Wonderbolts Academy. The downpour occurred suddenly all over Ponyville, soaking the entire town with rain.

"Do you have a raincoat?" asked Lightning Dust

"Umm...Rarity borrowed it yesterday and still not returning it to me, so ,no." replied Rainbow Dash

"Guess I have to stay here." said Dust "Until the rain stops."

"Hey, I gotta sleep." said Dash as she stretched "I'm so tired today."

After a while, Dust heard Dash's scream from upstairs. "RAINBOW" said Dust as she ran upstairs. When she opened the door, she saw Dash tied to the strange contraption. "What?" asked Dust. Suddenly, a figure wearing a pig mask leaped out of a wardrobe and jabbed a syringe into her neck.

After the drug effect was gone, Dust found herself strapped to the exact same device that Dash was strapped to. She felt terrible pain from her wings as she looked behind her, her wings were stabbed by various small blades that connected to the contraption. She was shocked and she also saw that she was also handcuffed to the back of the device. The audio tape hanging from the ceiling played once they woke up.

"Hello, Rainbow Dash. And Lightning Dust. I want to play a game. Both of you, for years you are taking yourself to be prideful. A pride for being the greatest flyer in Wonderbolts. I know that it's your goal, but you put too much of yourself into it. Today, the pride the one that is causing you a harm tonight. In 70 seconds, Rainbow must free herself from the device by injuring the tool that she use for her pride: your wings. The only way to survive is to pull yourself of the machine, therefore, this will make your wings heavily wounded, but you'll survive. After you free yourself, you must unlock the handcuff that hold Dust to the machine. If you failed to pull yourself out or free Dust, the saw blades at the back of the device, attached to the machine will engage, shredding your back and your wings. Your time is running out. Live or die, make your choice."

"70...69...68" the timer was counting down, Dust was terrified.

"What are we gonna do?" asked Dust.

"Umm......follow what did the guy just say?" replied Dash "If this is the only way out.....oh no."

"61...60...59" as the timer counting down, Dash begins to pull herself out of the machine painfully. "Come on, Dash! You can do it." cheered Dust as Dash temporarily stopped due to severe pain from her wings.

"50...49...48" Dash successfully pull herself out, the blood from her wings were dripping. She slowly walked toward Dust due to her injury. She searched around the device for a key.

"39...38...37" After searching, she found it, tied to the pole. She, then, uncuffed Dust. But, however, she realized something.
"Dust?...uh..you must pull yourself out too." this line completely shocked Dust. "Come on, we don't have time." said Dash as she grabbed Dust's waist and started pulling her out. Dust grinded her teeth hard from the pain.

"25...24..23" as the time was running out, Dust made a hard push, almost freeing her from the machine. "Dust, just one more and you'll free." said Dash as she pull Dust's waist hard. But it looked like Dust stopped for a moment, because of her bleeding wings.

"10...9...8" as the timer almost hit zero, Dash pulled Dust hard, freeing Dust from the contraption. Just few seconds before the saw blades engaged.

"Are you alright" asked Dash as Dust lay on the floor.

"Yes." answered Dust as Dash went downstairs to grab the towels to hold their bleeding wings and called the police.

FLASHBACK ENDED

As soon as Frank finished talking, Denvy was the first one to speak up. "Jigsaw tested them, because they're prideful?"

"When it's not a problem to us. It's problem for him." replied Frank "That's how Jigsaw works."

"I can't stand seeing the ponies dying like this. We must arrest this killer. We must do it fast." said Storm.

"You look tired, Storm" said Peridot. "I suggest that, you go take a nap at your house. We'll handle this."

"Alright, Dot." said Storm as he smiled "I trust you." after he finished his sentence, he left the room and the department, heading to his home.

Author's Note

Hint#2:They are both mares
Alright, so that's Chapter 2. Chapter 3 and the following chapter will be the trial. (where the character will go through series of tests to reach their goal.)

Chapter 3: Officer Storm's Trial (Part 1-Decapitation Box)

After the nap and woke up in the next day, Officer Storm and Detective Peridot were called to the Rainbow Dash's house once again.

"Can you tell us what happened?" asked Peridot as he writing down the thought of her neighborhood, Flitter.

"Yes, while I was flying to the cafe with my friend, Cloudchaser. We heard her scream coming from her house, we rushed in and found nothing but this symbol." answered Flitter as she handed over Rainbow's Dash book which has a symbol written on its cover, the symbol was a snake wrapping around the metal pole and a jigsaw-shaped symbol. Below it read "Think hard, officers."

"Think hard?" muttered Peridot in confusion.

"Storm, no evidences are found. Even a trace of a criminal." said a pegasus officer as she walked out of Dash's house.

"I guess it's that bucker, again. Jigsaw." said Storm as he sketched the symbol and the message on the book's cover.

"Thank you for your time, ma'am." said Peridot politely as he handed back the book to Flitter. The officers flied back to the station to find out where Rainbow Dash is, and rescue her.

LATER IN THE EVENING

"Buck me, I'm done with this case." said Frank as he puts his hand on the back of his head, no signs of Rainbow Dash after a big search, almost giving up to solve this "Jigsaw" massacre. "I need to know why Jigsaw need to test her twice. I mean, she passed her test, why is she being tested again."

"Yeah, she learned her lesson. Plus the disappearance of Aria Blaze, Adagio Dazzle, Filthy Rich and Princess Twilight. I guess the murderer is starting to get cocky. In every scene we found this symbol and this message." agreed Peridot just a seconds before Denvy rushed into the room.

"WE GOT A CALL FROM STORM'S HOUSE!" shouted Denvy to get the attention of the stallions, after heard her shocking message, the two rushed out of the room quickly.

MEANWHILE

"Aw, my head." muttered Storm as he woke up in a hospital-like building. He was in a room which looked like an x-ray room, judging by the old, dusty x-ray machine at the far-left of the room and few x-ray sheets on the board. He realized that he had been strapped to the chair after moving his arms and wings for a little bit. He saw two metal sheets on his shoulders, along with the metal box that he was wearing, covering his head, leaving with the side that is made of thick glass, allowed him to see what's in front of him. The TV turned on in front of him, showing the Puppet that he found in the video tape in every crime scenes. The Puppet turned, looking at him.

"Hello, Officer Storm. I want to play a game. After the massacre has started, you have been trying to save as much ponies as you can. But at same time, you've been detaching from your friends after you've failed to save someone from the massacre. I would say, you've put too much of yourself in it. Tonight, I'll show you how to truly save a life. Rainbow Dash, Princess Twilight and Adagio Dazzle needs your help. They have 65 minutes to save themselves. To reach them you must face other ponies along the way. The device you're wearing drive the metal sheets into your neck, side by side, before completely decapitating you, if not unlocked after 45 seconds. The key to unlock it, is in the box behind you, but watch out, the box is full of red, heated nails. Let the game begin."

As soon as the tape ends, the restraint on the chair opened, freeing him. Without any hesitation, Storm rushed to the metallic box behind him. The glows of the heated nails were bright, making it not much hard to see.

"Oh, Faust." said Storm in horror.

"39...38...37" as the timer counting down, the officer drove his arm into the box. As he screamed in pain, his arm slowly burning in process.

"33...32...31" unlike other Jigsaws' victims, Storm was able to reach the key very quickly. He pulled his arm out, badly burned from the heat, his arm's fur was almost burned off. He searched for the keyhole around the box.

"28...27...26" Storm inserted the key into the keyhole behind the box, he pulled his head out after the box was unlocked. Storm threw it away, as the door opened. Remembered his goal to save the three mares, he wasted no time and rushed out of the room.

MEANWHILE, AT THE END OF STORM'S TEST

"Where am I?" asked Adagio as she woke up and was instantly terrified as she found herself strapped to the chair with two revolvers, each aiming at her temples. She looked around and found Rainbow Dash and Twilight. Just before she could speak anything, the mares woke up. Rainbow Dash's wings, arms and legs were held together by the metallic restraints and wearing a noose that was made from metal and fiber wire. Twilight was strapped to a chair, wearing a life vest, with many bombs attached on it.

"OH, COME ON! Why am I'm being test again?" shouted Dash in confusion, before she turned to Adagio. "Adagio?" said Dash in surprise.

"Why are both of you here? Me too." asked Adagio in surprise too.

"We don't know." answered Twilight.

"Don't let him in?" asked Dash as she saw the message on the wall along with multiple monitors in front of them. They saw a pegasus walking in one of them.

"Who is that?" asked Adagio.

"Officer Storm. I know him, he's my friend." answered Dash.

MEANWHILE

Two police cars, along with one ESAU (Equestria Special Assault Unit) van and one ambulance driving through the street, with few pegasus officers and troopers flying above them.

"Tophill Hospital?" asked Frank.

"Yes, I'm pretty sure that everyone's there. It's the hospital closed and left abandoned during Equestria's massive economic recession. I know that that symbol is a medicine symbol. They're going to be there." answered Denvy.

"What kind of hospital is that? It served as the hospital, mental hospital and an asylum." said Peridot who was flying near the car.

"Why do we need the ESAU anyway?" asked Frank.

"In case if there's a trap in there." answered Denvy. "Hang in there, Storm. We're coming." said Denvy as the cars continued to drove toward the abandoned hospital.

Author's Note

Hint#3:One of them has a distinctive feature.
Fact:
-In Jigsaws' tests, the victim can't use any abilities. (Uni/Alicorn's magic, Pegasi's ability to fly, stand on the cloud etc.) This is because of special chemical that are injected into them.
-ESAU which is introduced in this fic, is equivalent to SWAT team in real life.

Pay attention viewers, things are getting real.

Chapter 5: Officer Storm's Trial (Part 3- Revolver Chair, Hangmare and Bomb Vest) (THE END)

After passing his tests, Storm rushed down the hallway to the operating room, where his final test took place. While running to save his friends, Storm spotted the messages written in red paint on the wall.

"Think twice."

"Pay Attention."

"Listen to them." said the messages on the wall.

What the buck? Storm thought, looked up and saw the timer, it read 20:19. Storm quickly dashed through the corridor. Hope you all are still alive. Storm thought.

MEANWHILE

"He's close." said Dash as she looked into the monitor, which monitored the hall not much far from their room.

"OK, so once he gets here-" said Twilight as her speech were cut by Adagio shouting.

"OH NO! HE'S COMING!" shouted Adagio.

Storm rushed through the hallway as he saw Dash, Twilight and Adagio were placed in a traps. "I'M COMING!" said Storm as he rushed down the hallway at the maximum of his speed.

"NO, STORM! NO!" shouted Dash as she reached the top of her voice volume, as with Twilight and Adagio.

"IT'S A TRAP! LISTEN TO US!" warned Adagio.

"DON'T DO IT YET! JUST WAIT! shouted Twilight.

Storm paused on his hooves, just a few meters from the door.

"What?" said Storm in a confusion

"STORM, WAIT!" shouted Dash from the inside of the room.

"But I-"

"DON'T COME HERE YET!"

Storm looked at the timer above the door, it read 18:45. Storm, unable to stood to see his friends in the danger and not learning the lesson, he deeply inhaled and charged toward the door.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" screamed Adagio in horror as Storm crashed through the door, triggering the revolver on the ceiling of
the room, fired the shot down the ceiling to his abdomen, followed by the revolvers, side by side of the door, shot him in the wings. As Storm collapsed, the revolvers that aimed at the Adagio's temples, fired a shot to her head, killing her. The winch that connected to Dash's noose engaged, hoisting her up as she gasping for air. The bombs on Twilight's vest started beeping as she made a sad and teary face to Storm. The tape recorder in the middle of the room started playing.

"Hello, Officer Storm. If you're listening to this, it means that you have reached Twilight, Rainbow and Adagio's location in under 65 minutes, resulting in their deaths. Everything were clear enough, you were warned. Perhaps, this is because you're still listening to your obsession...."

FLASHBACK MONTAGE

"Tonight, I'll show you how to truly save a life."

"Help! shouted Aria that was trapped in a coffin

"Will you choose to save her?"

"Get me out!" shouted Aria from inside the coffin.

"I'm trying! Just-just hold on!" said Storm as he searched on top of the coffin for the code.

"OH, BUCK SHIT!" said Storm in horror as he saw the surgical scar.

"GIVE ME THE KEY!" yelled Aria as she charged with the scalpel.

"Or you can leave him in his current situation."

"Bucking leave you here." said Storm in anger as he prepared to walk out of the room.

"OH NO- AHHHHHHHHHH" said Filthy with his last words before he get electrocuted.

PRESENT

"...You failed your final test." the tape ended, Storm covered his ears as the bomb was about to go off. But instead of an explosion, he heard metallic clanking. He turned around and saw Twilight and Rainbow Dash walked toward him, appeared to be not in any danger at all. His face froze in massive shock.

FLASHBACK MONTAGE

"TRIXIE DOESN'T WANT THE INTRUDER TO BE INSIDE HER OWN HOUSE!"

In response Twilight rushed out of the darkness Trixie quickly used her magic to telekinetically knocked the figure over, pinning it to the floor. Suddenly, Dash jumped out of the cabinet and proceeded to caught her in the arm lock, the magician struggled to get out, but to no avail. Afterward, Twilight gets up and forcefully jabbed a syringe into her neck, knocking her into complete unconsciousness.

"Hello, Trixie. I want to play a game." said Dash into a microphone as Twilight used her computer in their lair to modified Dash's voice.

"And it's done. Let's call it Billy." Twilight handed over Dash a puppet, which they will use it on the videos

Twilight, in Pigmask outfit and after put Dash in the Wings Cutter, injected Dash a shot of anesthetic. "You have to do this, so the police won't know it's us." said Twilight as she quickly hid in a doorway as Dash let out a scream.

"The clues? We don't know what kind of pony it is."

Twilight and Dash put on the gloves, which are the part of their Pigmask outfit. "No using magics and flying. OK?" said Twilight to Dash as they tried to concealed their identity.

"I can't stand seeing the ponies dying like this. We must arrest this killer. We must do it fast." said Storm as Dash flew nearby the window of the room, giving her an idea for the new game.

Twilight and Dash, after put Adagio in the Revolver Chair, they put themselves in a harmless traps. The noose were designed to be larger than Dash's neck and the bombs are fake.

PRESENT

Storm, regained his sense, attempted to grab the revolver, only to got Twilight to kick his hand and stepped both of her hooves on them.

"I won't tell you why are we doing this. And sorry, you failed." said Twilight coldly and smiled evilly as Dash poured the gasoline around the room and unplugged the monitors. The two started to leave, not before Dash said her final words to Storm.

"Game Over." said Dash as she smirked, Storm used his last breath ran up to Dash, only to got Dash threw the lighter to his face, causing him to fell and ignite the gasoline, torching him alive. Once they reached the front door, they saw police cars, ESAU van and ambulance parked outside the hospital, along with sirens blaring.

"Twilight! Dash! Are you two okay? Have you seen Storm." asked Frank as he ran up to the two.

"No, just us two." answered Dash.

"Alright, SEARCH THE ENTIRE BUILDING QUICK!" shouted Frank as the ESAU and the police sprinted into the building. Twilight and Dash were safely escorted into the ambulance, the police didn't know that the mares had fooled them.

"Is this done now?" whispered Dash.

"No, it's not over." whispered Twilight. "The games have just begun."

The ambulance drove the Jigsaws to the safety under the sky at night, leaving them to continued their "games" while leading the police in circle. But, however, who are the accomplices? Why are they doing this? Who was the first pony ever to be tested? Who knew, everything has just begun...

Chapter 1: Trixie's Test (The Mute Trap)

In a dark gloomy night in Ponyville, the sounds of the interrogating room door opened. Two Ponyville Police Department officer walked into the room along with the latest massacre victim, Trixie Lulamoon. One of the officers sat on the chair.

"Take a seat, ma'am." said Officer Storm, the senior pegasus police officer. Trixie grabbed her chair and sat on it. Her both physical and psychological scars were still deep-seated inside her mind.

"So, what happened last night?" asked Detective Peridot as Trixie began to slightly sobbed about her experience. After few seconds passed, she calmed down her nerves and started to answering the officers' question.

"Last night, I was..." said Trixie in a light tone of her sound, just before she began to talk about what was happening.

FLASHBACK

In the dark and quiet night, Trixie went back to her home after her performance. When she walked to the front door, she realized that the door's lock had been picked open by someone. She was worried after she knew that someone might have gotten into her house stole her valuables already. She ran into her house and turned on the lights, all of her stuffs are in place.

"Well, that's-" just before she was able to finished her sentence. She saw the faint shadow running within the abyss in the unlit part of her house, immediately had a chill running up her spine, the magician calmed herself and shouted.

"TRIXIE DOESN'T WANT THE INTRUDER TO BE INSIDE HER OWN HOUSE!" she shouted loudly

In response the shadow rushed out of the darkness, revealing itself to be the pony figure wearing a pig mask and a crimson red robe, completely concealed its identity. Trixie quickly used her magic to telekinetically knocked the figure over, pinning it to the floor. Suddenly another "intruder" jumped out of the cabinet and proceeded to caught her in the arm lock, the magician struggled to get out, but to no avail. Afterward, the another figure gets up and forcefully jabbed a syringe into her neck, knocking her into complete unconsciousness.

Afterwards, the magician woke up in the living room inside her house and also strapped to the armchair. Once Trixie moved her tongue, she felt a metallic contraption inside her mouth, covering all of the mare's upper and lower teeth. She also felt a part of the mechanism sticking out of her mouth, between her lips. The device's curve part which is outside her mouth were restraining her lips, preventing her from speaking. As Trixie realized this she began to trying to shout for help, few seconds passed, the TV in front of her turned on, playing the video. The figure in the video appeared to looked like some sort of ventriloquist dummy, it had a body resembling a colt, wearing a tuxedo with red bow tie, had a short black messy mane, pale white coat and red rosy painting on its cheek. The device turned around, as if it was turning around to face Trixie. Its cold crimson red eyes stared directly into her soul, just before it began to talk in a heavily distorted, raspy and masculine voice.

"Hello, Trixie. I want to play a game. For years, you've been boasting yourself under the name of "The Great and Powerful Trixie".
The words you've used to boasted yourself are mostly the fake ones. You are a liar. Even you've learned your lesson from Twilight Sparkle....you are still doing it. That means you truly didn't learned your lesson, you are pathetic. Now...it's time for you to pay the price. After 100 seconds, the device inside your mouth will drives its spikes through your tongue, then to your neck, killing you from the inside. To prevent this, there is a key inside a syringe-filled sink in the bathroom. The key can be used to unlock the device. If you try to speak or move your mouth, the censor will detects it and the spikes will be slowly extended, killing you even sooner. The choice is yours, live or die, Trixie. Make your choice."

Suddenly, the tape ended and the restraints on the armchair are opened, freed her. As Trixie got up she said "This should be easy, as Trixie will use her spell to search the key!" then she started to use her magic, but for some reason, the magic glow faded off very quickly. She tried again, but now her horn didn't emit magic glow at all, leaving her not significantly different from earth ponies. Leaving her momentarily shocked.

"97...96...95"

As the timer was counting down, the magician ran to the bathroom, she opened the door and saw that the sink was full of syringes, just like what the puppet just said. She briefly freezed in fear, then proceeded to drove her hand into the sink, some of them pricked her hand in the process.

"78...77...76"

She searched for the key, and accidentally let out few muffled screams in the process. The sound censor which is taped to the mechanism detected the sound, slowly extending the spikes, now they were about to touch her tongue. After that, she touched something that feels different than the syringes, she pulled her hand out, with many bleeding tiny holes on her hand and few syringes jabbed to her hand too.

"45...44...43"

"Come on....come on" Trixie thought. Trixie tried hard not to panic, move her mouth, or say anything. She began to search for the lock of the device by rapidly touching different parts of her head for it. Finally, she was able to located the lock which was located at the back of her neck. She unlocked the device, she tried to pull it out. Soon, she realized that "if she wanted to remove the device, she must forcefully ripped out her mouth".

"24..23...22"

With no time left, Trixie grabbed the front part of the device, which was located between her lips. She forcefully slowly ripping it out of her mouth. Because of the movement of her lips and muffled screams, this caused the spikes to extended rapidly and to stabbed her in the tongue.

"12...11...10"

Trixie almost removed the contraption completely out of her mouth, she made a final strong pull, causing her to successfully removed the device out of her mouth. The timer, then, counted down to 0, the device's spike then fully extended to its maximum length at high speed. She screamed loudly as her tongue continued to bleed, she taught herself from the recent experience not to lie for profits again. No matter how big the profit gained from the lie is. She then walked to the dining room to find a napkin to hold her bleeding tongue. Afterward, she heard the police sirens, one of the officer slowly opened the door, aiming his pistol around and saw Trixie. He ran up to her.

"What happened here, miss? We've called here from the screaming coming from this house." asked the officer, only to be unanswered from her, then he noticed some blood dripping out of her mouth. "She might was in the trouble!" he thought. The officer turned around and shouted. "Storm, you go investigate this what happened here! Peridot, call the paramedic! Now!"

FLASHBACK ENDED

"Yes, and that's all Trixie can remember" said Trixie.

"Alright, lady. You can now leave, we really appreciate your time here." said Peridot. Trixie got up and leave the room. Officer Storm sighed "This is ridiculous." said Storm "How are we going to arrest this motherbucker."

"Well, what about the clues? Do they leave anything behind?" asked Detective Peridot.

"The clues? We don't know what kind of pony it is. Plus in every crime scenes, we didn't find any fingerprints, feather from pegasui wings nor magic traces that will left behind when unicorn or alicorn used their magic to interact with the object." replied the pegasus officer.

"And the one who is able to build those traps must be intelligent enough. This pony's knowledge is beyond the Flim and Flam brothers." said the pegasus detective.

"You're right." replied Storm just before an unicorn officer rushed into the room.

"Storm! Dot! We received a call from 34 Equine District!" said the officer.

"That's Rainbow Dash's residence! Get the officers ready! Move it!" said Officer Storm as the pegasi and an unicorn rushed out of the room.

Author's Note

Hint#1:Both of them have wings.
So, coincidentally, I realized that this scene is very similar to Amanda's interrogation scene from Saw. Also, if I have anything wrong with something like grammar, words or something, please notify me. So I can fix it for the chapters in the future.

Chapter 4: Officer Storm's Trial (Part 2-Crematorium and Electrotherapy)

After his first test, Storm ventured deeper into the hospital, for his second test. Later, Storm found himself in the long, dark hallway. Even as the brave officer, he felt a sudden creep and chill down on his back.

"Morgue, Crematorium and Autopsy" said the sign above the double door, along with a digital timer on it, showing him that he had 45 minutes left. Storm rushed into the morgue, side by side of him were empty morgue lockers, where they kept the corpses inside.

"Help!" shouted the mare that was trapped in a coffin made of wood and metal. Storm ran up to her, while he was walking, he tripped the rope that was stretched wide, after he tripped, the television turned on. The thing on TV was the puppet again, it moved its head as if it was facing Storm. It said in a heavily distorted, raspy, masculine voice, as always. The mare inside the coffin shivered as the puppet talked.

"Hello, Officer Storm. Welcome to your second test. The situation you find yourself in is one of trust. The mare in this coffin, her name is.." The light inside the coffin turned on. "...Aria Blaze. Throughout her life, she had made a living insulting others and badmouthing others, instead of improving her own life. The conveyor belt will slowly transport her into the furnace. There's four numbers on top of her coffin, hurry up and program it in. However, you can also choose to watch her burn to death. Will you choose to save her? Or the ponies who have their feelings burned down by her words will have their revenge. The choice is yours."

As soon as the tape ended, the conveyor belt activated, slowly pulled Aria into the fiery furnace. Storm, chose to save her, rushed to Aria and searched the top of her coffin for the code.

"Get me out!" shouted Aria from inside the coffin.

"I'm trying! Just-just hold on!" said Storm as he continue his searching. The room was very dimly lit, making it hard to see the number. But when the coffin was near the furnace Storm was able to see the number. On top left corner had number 4 on it, 7 on top right, 5 on lower left and 6 on lower right.

"Found them! Just hang in there!" said Storm as Aria's coffin was far from the furnace only few meters away, making her shivered even more. Storm tried to figure out the dial, on first attempt Storm entered the code "7645" on the small keypad on the coffin, only to be answered by red light near the keypad lit up. Storm tried again, now he entered the code "5674" on it, but the result was same. As the coffin almost reach the furnace, Storm made one last attempt, entered the final code, which was "5467". The result was different, the green light lit up instead, the mechanism which locked the coffin unlocked and the conveyor belt was stopped.

"Thank you." said Aria as she exited the coffin with Storm's help.

"Wait, what?" asked Storm as he spotted a small device around her neck, it was metallic circle that wrapped around her neck. It has a small razor blade on it. "What is that?" said the surprised officer.

The mare was surprised as she touched her neck. "What? I don't know what is this. But my tape said I need to find the key!" said Aria as the 35 seconds timer started.

"35...34...33" the timer started its countdown, both of them were panicked as they didn't know where the key is.

"Did your tape said anything about it?" asked Storm.

"No." answered Aria as she looked behind Storm. She was shocked for a moment.

"What is it?" asked Storm

"The key is inside you!" answered Aria as she ran to the nearby table that had a scalpel on it.

"WHAT?"said Storm in confusion as he glanced behind him and he saw a desk with a lamp on it, on top of it had three pictures, two was a picture of himself, the last one was a picture of a surgical scar on his abdomen, next to them was an x-ray sheet of the key location. Storm looked down and saw the scar. "OH, BUCK SHIT!"

"21...20...19" Aria charged with a scalpel in her hand, Storm dodged her by side-stepping. Aria turned and charge again, Storm grabbed her hand that held the scalpel.

"GIVE ME THE KEY!" yelled Aria. Storm squeezed her hand hard, making Aria to drop the scalpel. Storm followed by a punch to her face and a kick to the chest. Storm kicked her in the hoof and pushed her away.

"11...10...9" as the time was running out, Aria made her final charge at Storm, who proceeded to trip her with his hoof.

"2...1...0" the timer expired and the razor blade were dragged across her neck, slitting it opened. The tape fell out of her pants pocket, Storm picked it up and played it.

"Hello, Aria Blaze. The officer will try to save you. If he chose to save you, your game will begins. You have to find the key to unlock the device around her neck. The location will be obvious."

Storm threw it away and stomped on it. "This bastard will pay for what he done!" thought Storm as the door behind him opened. The timer above the door showed him that he has 35 minutes left. Storm wasted no time and ran out of the room.

MEANWHILE, AT THE END OF STORM'S TRIAL

"Poor Aria." said Dash in a sad tone.

"She was my friend." said Adagio as she started to cry.

"Um....I think "Don't let him in" means, don't let Storm in." said Twilight as she figured out the meaning of the message.

"Well, how he's going to save us then?" asked Adagio.

"I don't know! I don't know anything about this!" answered Twilight.

"Me too." said Dash as they continued to monitor Storm.

BACK TO STORM

Storm rushed through the building, in order to save Twilight, Dash and Adagio from their impending doom. Storm arrived in front of a room with a light on.

"Electrotherapy" said the sign above the door, the timer above it said "30:49". Storm opened the door and found a businesspony, Filthy Rich, strapped to the metal chair, with four electric cables connected to it, the cables were connected to a small electrotherapy machine, which was modified to be capable to deliver lethal voltage of electricity.

"Oh, hey! Please help me! I've been stuck in here for a while now." said Filthy, the TV in the corner of the room turned on, the puppet was there again.

"Hello, Officer Storm. Welcome to the third test. The stallion in front of you is Filthy Rich. A wealthy businesspony who owns a electrical production industry. Very few ponies know about his plan. He hired criminals to wipe out his rivals in the electrical production industry. Today, it is him who will be judge by your act, Officer Storm. After 60 seconds the machine will produce lethal voltage transport by the cables which are connected to the chair, electrocute him. All you have to do to free him is, there will be a box with four buttons in it. You are allowed to press three buttons only. Just think it is the guessing game. Pressing the wrong one will cause the machine to electrocute him for a second. And each press will have a sacrifice. Or you can leave him in his current situation. Make your choice."

"You bucking bastard! I won't save criminals like you! Bucking leave you here." said Storm in anger as he prepared to walk out of the room, through the another door.

"No, please! Don't leave me like this! I'll change my mind! I promise!" entreated Filthy, leaving Storm to think for a seconds.

"56...55...54"

"OK, if you say so." answered Storm with his serious expression. He walked to the box which had four buttons in it. "Each press will have a sacrifice?" muttered Storm before he gulped and press the first button to the left. The blade was drove into his palm after he pressed it, Storm screamed in pain and looked back. The red light on the wall of the room was lit, this resulted in Filthy getting briefly electrocuted.

"BUCK!" yelled Storm frustratedly.

"50...49...48"

"Let's try this again." said Storm as he pressed the second button to the right. The blade stabbed him again, he grinded his teeth in pain. He looked back, the red light was lit again. Filthy also got electrocuted again.

"43...42...41"

"Last chance...um..." said Storm hesitantly, he didn't know what button to press due to if he pressed another button and it's wrong, Filthy will die.

"What are you doing?" said Filthy loudly.

"37...36...35" Storm inhaled deeply. He pushed the second button to the left, he grinded his teeth as the blade stabbed him. He looked back and saw a red light lit.

"Oh no." said Storm in horror

"OH NO- AHHHHHHHHHH" said Filthy with his last words before the machine sends the lethal voltage to his chair, electrocuted him alive. His scream were loud enough to be heard echoing throughout a hospital.

"I'm sorry. I couldn't save you." said Storm sadly while watching him getting electrocuted. Storm, then, left the room. The timer on the wall read "28:10". Storm ran through the corridor, to reach his final test.
