'I-I-I need this. Think of how good this will be! It's low pay but I need a job..' Said Mike.
'Do you really want to do this, Mike?' Said his sister. She was almost like a friend rather than a sister to Mike. She would give him advice when he needed it and Mike would do the same.
'Truely.'
'This place is... Creepy.' Said Mike. He was starting his first day at Twilight Sparkle's Pizzaria. This Pizzaria is well known for the theory's around it. According to some, back in '87, a child's head got bitten off! Others say it was just the frontal lobe, but that's not the point. This was a Pizzaria full of crazy pony animatronics. There was 4. Twilight, Pinkamina, Dashie and Rarity.
Mike made his way over to the security office. The place was dark and spooky with all the lights off. When he got into the room, there was a few things he noticed. There was a tablet. Looked like a cheap iPad 1st Gen.
The second was a light that would turn on and off. The third was a door, fourth was a percentage thing saying 'POWER: 100%' on it.
Mike was about an hour early. His shift started at 12 AM and ended at 6 AM. As soon as it turned 12, two things happened. The power started going down slowly, and the phone starting ringing.
'Hello? Hello hello? I wanted to record a message for you.. To get you settled in on your first night. You see, here at Twilight Sparkle's Pizzaria, a few... Different.. Things happen. First I have a little... Message I have to read. It's kinda a legal thing. Welcome to Twilight Sparkle's Pizzaria, where children and adults come alike for great food and entertainment. Please do not touch any animatronics. If we find anyone dead, we will file a missing persons report within 2 weeks or after we have thoroughly scrubbed and replaced the carpets. So uh.. I know that sounds pretty bad but you've got nothing to worry about! The ponies do tend to.. Roam around at night. They are set to some sort of.. Free roam mode at night because of something to do with their servos locking up... Anyway, be sure to check the cameras to see if the ponies are in their right place. And only shut those doors if absolutely necessary. Gotta conserve power. Goodnight.
He felt kinda in the dark with this.
'So, I have to watch a few stupid pony characters for 6 hours? Easy!'
Too bad he was so... So wrong.
'So. Using the camera, using the light, using the door, all take up power. What happens if I run out of power? Maybe I get spooked by a little cute pony. Hehe 3Spoopy5Me!' Said Mike. He thought of it like a cute little joke.
'Checking the cameras lalalala- OH MY GOD' Screamed Mike. 'D-D-Dashie is gone..' He whispered to himself.
'Whew! I got a bit spooked there! Dashie is just in the dining hall. Nothing to worry about!'
Too bad there is quite a few things to worry about. Mike didn't seem at all bothered that creepy pony figures where waking around a dark Pizzaria. A Pizzaria known for a bad history of children dying and people being bitten. Some even call each week of the night shift 'five nights at Twilight's.'
Poor Mike was gonna get quite the spook..
THE START OF THE PIZZARIA: PART 1
1977 -
'Finally! Hahahaha!' Shouted Twilight. At long last, the mare had finally made a portal. But it wasn't just any portal. It wasn't a portal like the one that sent her to canterlot high. It was a portal to a planet named 'Earth'. This was a very special planet, that Lyra in particular was interested in. The humans there, from what Twilight had deducted, where not very colourful. They where simply either black or white. There was no exceptions. Twilight was ready to go in and see. But she needed help. She needed ponies to be with her when she went through, in case anything went wrong.
RIIING! RIING! RIIIIIIIINNGGG!
'I'm coming I'm coming!' Said Pinkie to herself. Being a fun pony, she hated constant, loud noises.
'Hello?' Said Pinkie after she picked up the phone.
'Hello Pinkie! It's Twilight. Are you free tonight?' Answered twilight.
'Of course silly! I only go out on Fridays over to the pub for karaoke!'
'Good.' Replied Twilight. 'Come over to my tree tonight at 8. Something special is happening.'
'Ooh I LOVE special things! I'll be there!' Said Pinkie, then she hung up.
'Phew' said Twilight. 'Only Dashie and Rarity left to phone.'
'Hello girls.' Said Twilight. It was finally 8 'o' clock. It was finally time for twilight to see for herself what 'Earth' is like. 'Now, your probably wondering why your here.'
'Yep...' Whispered Dash under her breath. Being an inpatient pony, she didn't like to go places without knowing what it was. That way, she knows if it's boring or not.
'Now, today I finally made the portal to 'Earth'. You guys, and me will be going into the portal to see what it's like.' Said Twilight. She seemed kinda hurt at dash's comment, but she didn't let it bother her.
'Awesome!' Shouted Dash
'I hope they have dresses there' Said Rarity
'That sounds cool! I'm nervous.. And exited... I'm nervosited!' Said Pinkie.
'Good. Said twilight. She was a bit nervosited herself though. She didn't really want to leave Spike, but she knew that it was for the sake of Pony kind.
'Alright girls! Let's go.' Said Twilight. After that command, one after the other, the three mares walked into the portal. Twilight went behind, at the very end of the line.
'Um.. Something seems wrong here.' Said twilight. They had just got through the portal.
'Well DUHH Silly! It's a completely different dimension from ours!' Said Pinkie to the confused pony next to her.
'No... Why aren't we like the animals that inhabit this 'Earth'? What will we do if one comes up to us?' Said Twilight. She was so worried her mane had started to stick up.
'Uh.. I don't mean to add on to the worry, darling, but the portal is gone..' Said Rarity.
'WHAAAAATT?' Shouted pinkie in a horrified tone.
'Guys, how about we take shelter in that place there?' Said Dashie. It seemed pretty worn out, so it was perfect to hide in until Twilight could figure out how to get away from this place back to Equestria.
TWILIGHT SPARKLE'S PIZZARIA
'Hmm... This place kinda creepy.' Said dash. 'I mean, it has your name on it Twi.'
They proceeded forward. However, they would get a much bigger surprise soon...
As they walked in, they saw a stage. Three ponies where sat on it. They looked just like Dash, Pinkie, Twilight and Rarity.
'W H O A R E Y O U ?' Said one of the animatronic ponies to Twilight.
'Well I'm twilight sparkle. These are my friends- Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Rarity.' Replied Twilight.
'T H A T I S O U R N A M E S . Y O U M U S T N O W B E K I L L E D . N O E X E P T I O N S .' Said the same pony. Dash went in front of Twilight. 'If you wanna get Twi, you gotta go through me!' Said dash. She seemed very confident in that they could destroy the robots.
'Okay... So Dashie is moving around like a son of a...' Said Mike. He was working on making sure the ponies where not killing him. Although it didn't seem it, he was terrified. He was trying to act like nothing was happening, and that these were not killer pony animatronics. 'Dashie? Dashieeeee?' Shouted Mike. 'Holy Sh*t!' Screamed Mike. 'Shut the door shut the door shut the door shut the door' Mike repeated to himself as he shut the door on Dashie who had just tried to come into the office.
POWER: 14%
'Okay.. It's 4 AM. I can do this. Keep calm' said Mike to himself. His encounter with Dashie trying to get inside his office had convinced him that this place is all they say it is. Whenever he checked the light for if Dashie was there, he remembered the terror of what Dashie had looked like. Blood and mucus around the eyes and mouth. A terrible smile that told you that your gonna die. Cyan hooves that had faded to a darkish blue from all the dirty floors around the Pizzaria. That's Dashie alright.
Suddenly, without notice, without anything, the lights switched off, everything electronic stopped and Mike was still with fear. Footsteps started coming closer and closer, suddenly then a song started playing, and a ponies face started flashing up at the left door. It was twilight. She walked into the room and stood before Mike. He was petrified of this pony. It was standing on all fours in front of him, staring into his eyes. Mike started crying. 'P-p-please don't kill me.. I'll leave.. I'll do anything... Just please don't kill me...' Said Mike through tears. For the first time in his life, he was completely powerless over
life and death, and the only thing that chose was an old worn out robotic pony.
Suddenly Twilight left. No warning. Nothing. Then Mike realised the time. She had left because it was 6 AM. He could leave.
'I-I' cried Mike. He was amazed that he was still alive. He cautiously made his way through the Pizzaria, over to the door and left. As he left he saw the ponies as they where in the morning. As he watched them while walking past he noticed an animatronic walking up to him. One that he didn't see all night. Rarity. She came up to him and said 'hello, child! Welcome to Twilight Sparkle's Pizzaria!' Mike was confused. Wasn't that Twilight's line? '
Anyway, why did she call me a kid? I am a full grown man!' Thought Mike to himself as he stared at Rarity. Before hesitating any longer, he exited the building.
'I'm home!' Shouted Mike as he got back.
'Hello Mike!' Shouted his sister in reply. 'How was the first night at Twilight's?'
'Um..' Replied Mike. He wanted to tell his sister everything. About the blood and mucus on the ponies. About the power going out and Twilight nearly killing him. But something was stopping him. Something... Weird.
'It was fine.' Said Mike eventually.
