Returning thoughts

The night air was cool and the wind blew towards her target, speeding her progress as she stared down at the town of the elements of harmony. Ponyville was dark and quiet with all the little filly's tucked into their beds and their parents going to bed themselves. Luna flew down towards Sugar cube corner and flared out her wings to slow her decent and land carefully and quietly on the grass and started trotting towards the door. Luna tried to open the door, but the Cakes must have locked up the shop for the night. Luna bent her head down and her horn flared blue as she cast her spell to unlock the door. Luna heard the lock slid up and click and she slowly pushed the door open. The inside of the shop was dark and filled with cakes and baked goods the cakes had left over from the day. Luna slowly crept up the stairs, wincing at every creak of the floor boards. As she reached the top of the stairs she looked down the long dark hallway and tried to see which one might be Pinkies. There were no markings on the doors that would hint at who was inside them, so Luna opened the first door in the hallway and peered inside.

Luna's head poked through the door and she saw Mr. and Mrs. Cake sleeping in the bed, They were sleeping peacefully and were cuddling each other as they slept. Completely unaware of what was about to happen to their beloved Pinkie. Luna smiled at the thought of finally taking down one of the elements. They have probably grown cocky and arrogant in their wins against herself and Discord in the past, but never would they suspect that somepony would target them first. The cakes would be suspicious if Pinkie suddenly went missing Luna thought and quickly went back downstairs. She grabbed a Pen and paper from downstairs and wrote up a quick note from Pinkie to them informing them that she had gone on a trip to learn baking trades from all over the world. Luna then closed the door and made her way over to the next closest door. The door opened with a creak and the second Luna caught a glimpse of the inside of the room she knew it had to be Pinkies. She pushed the door open further to see Pinkie sleeping on the bed. There was confetti all over the floor and the walls were a bright pink color, much like Pinkies own color. Her closet was open revealing her huge party cannon and her welcome cart. Luna slowly tiptoed her way into Pinkies room until she was standing right over top of the pink party pony.

Should I go through with this? Luna thought to herself, This is your last chance to back out. She gazed down at the pink pony and remembered Nightmare Night. Pinkie had drove away every friend she made multiple times, before she finally settled on being a friendly monster to give the kids a good scare every once in a while. With her out of the way, you would be able to make as many friends as you please and stop this boogeyman nonsense. Luna thought about it for a moment before casting a sleeping spell on the already sleeping pony to make sure she didn't wake up before Luna got her somewhere that she could have a little fun. Luna lifted Pinkie up using magic and quietly snuck out of the Cakes house and started flying away from Ponyville.

Pinkie Pie slowly opened her eyes to find herself in an old warehouse looking building that was probably shut down years ago, strapped down to an operating table staring at the ceiling. Pinkie squirmed as much as she could while restrained and called for anypony to come help her. There was no answer and so Pinkie sat there as the hours ticked away until finally she could hear somepony walking up next to her. Pinkie smiled and called out to them "Can you help me out of this crazy contraption?" Pinkie heard a laugh from the person, a deep, but feminine chuckle that held an air of wicked intent. "Oh, but why would I let you out party pony? I was the one that strapped you in all nice and comfortably." Pinkie tried to crane her neck to see who it was, but she couldn't seem to look up far enough to see who it was. "Show your face you coward!" Pinkie yelled defiantly at the figure standing a ways back from the table. "Gladly." She responded as she drifted over to the table and started giggling. Pinkie gasped when she saw who it was. "LUNA?!" The figure smirked and leaned closer to her. "I am Luna no longer. You shall refer to me by my previous name. Nightmare moon!" Pinkie noticed that Luna had indeed transformed back into her dark and twisted form. "Why did you drag me out here?" Pinkie questioned her fears rising. "Why, to gobble you up of course!" Nightmare responded throwing her head up and laughing. "Come on pink one. I thought you LOVED laughing!"

Pinkie Glared defiantly as Nightmare calmed down and walked away from the table. Pinkie thought for a moment she had left her alone to starve when all of the sudden the operating table tilted up and Pink was face to face with Nightmares dark, black eyes. Nightmare moon started laughing as she grabbed a surgical knife off the table she had wheeled over and held it up to Pinkies face. "Jeez Pinkie. I didn't think anypony could take away your smile THAT easily." Nightmare laughed as she danced the blade in front of Pinkies eyes. "Perhaps I should carve your smile into your corpse to make sure your laughter and 'fun' never ends!" Nightmare suggested as she shoved the knife into Pinkies mouth and ran it around the inside of her mouth. Pinkie looked up at nightmare pleadingly as she pulled the knife out of Pinkies mouth and grabbed a meat cleaver from off the able and turned back towards Pinkie. "Time to have some FUN!" Nightmare laughed with an evil glint in her eyes.
