The Counts of Runith Archimedes Habersaxton

Rainbow Dash promised Fluttershy a day together, and it was already boring. Fluttershy couldn't spend five minutes not worrying about something-whether it was an animal, her health, or how " scary" roller-skating was, even though she never got a pair of skates. Rainbow was practically by Fluttershy's side all day. it was..... Fluttershy bellowed a high-pitched, bloodcurdling scream. Rainbow turned to her friend to see her losing large amounts of blood from every orifice on her face.  Fluttershy's final sound was the sound of her gargling blood. Rainbow picked up her friend's limp corpse, crying, and getting covered in four beer's worth of organ juice.

"Well, then. I usually hate making messes, because I usually have to clean them up, but this is quite the play! Death and loss! Bravo! Bravo!"

Rainbow looked up to see some guy in a mask. "Who are you? My friend just died and you're acting like this is just a big joke! You're a heartless bastard!"

Runith frowned. "Well, I did set the stage. You happened to find said stage. By the way," -Runith pushed her nose like an elevator call button- "Boop!"

Without Rainbow knowing, when Runith pressed her nose, he set in motion the reversal of Fluttershy's death and took out the pendulum swing in time that was her death. "Plus, I'm not that heartless to leave you without your friend. Friends forever, right?"

Runith pointed behind her. Rainbow turned around to see Fluttershy waving at her. She turned back to Runith and tried to speak-but was interrupted by Runith. "It's too simple that it's complex. Let's try not to over-think it. Anyway, would you like to skate? I have all day."

Runith extended his hand to help Rainbow up off the floor. Rainbow was still dumbfounded that this man just killed her friend, then started acting as if he'd known her all his life.

"Well, I practically have. I am one of The Ten, ten beings with powers unimaginable. We know all whenever we step into a universe or galaxy. I deal in fear, but decided I wanted a good time here while I was at it."

Rainbow accepted his help up onto her feet. They started roller-skating at about ten MPH. "So, uh,-"

"Runith."

"-So, Runith, are you usually this random?"

Runith gave a sly smile. "Yes. you'd have to be crazy to pick fear out of ten positions, so, I'm more or less insane than random."

They sped up to 15 MPH. Rainbow started bombarding Runith with questions like"What gives you a drive to kill? Who are The Ten? Why come to Ponyville?"

Runith answered with "A. Because I was bored. B. I just told you about The Ten. C. Because I was bored.

They went to 20 MPH. Rainbow started piping off how fast she skated. " I'm usually in the range of 25-29 MPH."

Runith shot back with "I find myself in the 50-70 MPH range. Anyway, I gotta leave. Things to do. Ciao!"

He walked out the front door and Rainbow went back to being with Fluttershy, who was whining about little things.
