Carrot Top: Vampony Hunter
First Contact
Previous ChapterNext ChapterCarrot sat at her kitchen table, watching the two ponies dance to the music box's melody. It has been five years since her parents were killed. She was now living in a trash of a house. Not by choice but rather because it was all she could afford. She still had no clue who killed her parents that night but she was dead set on finding him and making him pay. She looked at the clock on the wall. It read 9:15 at night. She let out a sigh and left the kitchen, heading for the front door. She opened it and stood outside, staring up at the night sky. It seemed so peaceful. She gave a slight smile as she began walking through the empty streets of Hoofington. She stopped when she heard a noise coming from a nearby alleyway. Carrot slowly began her approach, careful not to make a sound. She now stood in front of the alley. Carrot saw a mare hunched over and kneeling on the ground, muttering something to herself. Carrot slowly moved towards her. She bumped into a wooden crate and the mare looked up. Her mouth was covered with blood and her eyes were black as night. She let out a screech and lunged at Carrot. They fell into the crate, shattering it.
"What's going on?" Carrot asked out loud.
The mare opened its mouth, revealing two fangs. Drool left its mouth and landed on Carrot's shoulder. She managed to gain enough strength to throw her attacker off her.
"Stay away from me." Carrot said with fear in her eyes.
The mare darted at Carrot, slamming her into the side of the building. Carrot held the mare's face away. It seemed like she wanted to take a chunk out of her neck. Carrot knocked the mare back and picked up a piece of the crate with her two front hooves.
"Stay back." said Carrot. "I'm warning you."
The mare didn't listen. She lunged again, landing on Carrot. The wooden shard impaled her leg. Blood squirted out as the mare arched back and screeched. She backed away and looked down at the piece of wood. Carrot watched as the mare regained her balance and hissed.
"What are you?" cried Carrot.
The mare lunged again. This time, Carrot dodged and the mare landed on the broken crate. A piece of wood shot through her chest. The blood sprayed Carrot in the face. the mare didn't move. Carrot fell to her knees, half grossed out by the blood on her face and half freaked out by what just happened. She slowly scooted over to the mare. The piece of wood from the crate had impaled her through the heart.
"Is that what it was?" Carrot asked herself out loud. "A stake through the heart?"
The mare's body suddenly burst into black smoke and disappeared. Carrot was left in shock. She eventually regained her composure and made her way back home, immediately heading to the bathroom to wash the blood off her face.
