A Flash Before The Eyes

It was night time and the moon was full as Carrot burst through the door of the windmill.

"SCOURGE!" she yelled. "WHERE ARE YOU?"

"Right here." said a voice as a form dropped down from the shadows.

He was a red pegasus with a black mane and sharp fangs.

"YOU'RE GONNA PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID!" yelled Carrot at the top of her lungs.

"Still on about that, I see." said Scourge with a laugh. "Did you really come here for revenge?" he asked. "Or did you come here to die?"

Carrot let out a yell as she dove towards him, stakes at the ready. He delivered a powerful kick to Carrot's chest that made her fly backwards, dropping the stakes.

"how upsetting." said Scourge, approaching Carrot. "And here you thought you'd be tough."

Carrot quickly shot back up and threw a punch. Scourge blocked at and slammed her across the face with a hoof, knocking her back down. When she tried to get back up Scourge kicked her in the chest. He circled around her a couple times, watching her try to get back up. He then put a hoof on her chest and slammed her against the wall. Carrot lay slumped up against the wall of the windmill.

"I was really hoping for more of a fight." said Scourge, picking up a nearby carrot stake with his two front hooves.

He knelt down in front of Carrot, who could hardly move.

"Time to die." Scourge whispered.

He raised the stake and brought it down. At that same moment Carrot saw the stake coming towards her eye, her entire life flashed before her eyes...

"Open your present, kiddo."

Carrot Top looked up at her parents and smiled.

"Go ahead, honey." said her mom. "Open it."

Carrot looked down at the box in front of her. The wrapping paper had Christmas trees on it and the bow was bright red. Carrot bit down on the paper and began tearing into her present. When she finally got the paper off, she was left with a box. Knowing not what it was, she opened it. A sweet melody began to play as figures of two ponies danced. It was a music box. And it had the sweetest tune Carrot's ever heard.

"Like it?" asked the father.

"Like it?" asked Carrot. "I love it." She got up and gave her parents a big hug. "I love you."

"Love you, too, sweetie." replied mom.

Just then they heard a noise outside. The sound of hooves trampling lightly over the fallen snow. Just then there was a knock on the front door.

"Who could that be?" asked the father, heading for the door.

He opened it and the visitor gave him a massive push, knocking him into the hallway wall.

"NO!" yelled mom.

"RUN!" yelled the father. "GET CARROT OUT OF HERE!"

Carrot's mom pulled her away as they heard the sounds of flesh tearing and blood splattering. They ran towards the back of the house and the mom opened the door.

"Run!" she whispered. "HURRY!"

As soon as Carrot left the house, the visitor pulled her mother back in. The door slammed shut as Carrot heard agonizing screams. She took one last look before bolting into the forest, tears streaming down her face. She stopped and turned when she heard the house explode. Debris flew everywhere. Carrot caught a slight glimpse of a shadowy figure darting away from the house and disappearing into the trees. Carrot waited until she had caught her breath. She then slowly made her way back towards the house. Wooden boards lay in pieces everywhere. She saw pieces of her parents all over the place. She fell to her knees in a pile of rubble and cried. She looked down and saw something in the debris. She reached out a hoof, knocking away the broken pieces of wood. She then reached down with her hooves and picked up the music box. Her eyes filled with tears again as she opened it. The music played its sweet melody as the filly just sat in what used to be her house and cried.

Better Equipped

Carrot Top looked in the bathroom mirror.

"What was that?" she asked out loud. "Are there more?"

She splashed her face with some more water, getting the last bit of blood.

Carrot went back into the kitchen and stared at one of the chairs. She remembered how the demonic mare died when she was impaled throughh the heart by wood. And how she burst into black smoke. She suddenly remembered something from that horrible Christmas day. When she saw her father thrown into the wall, there was a burst of black smoke from the strange visitor.

"There must be more of these things." said Carrot to herself, kneeling down in front of the chair.

Carrot kicked the chair hard, causing it to break. She gathered all the wood pieces into a bag and tightened it. Afterwards, she cautiously left her house,, looking everywhere for signs of more creatures. Seeing nothing, she made her way through the streets of Hoofington. She finally came to a stop in front of a building. There was a picture of a hammer and nails on the door. She dragged the bag of wood up to the door and knocked. After about a minute, the door opened and a pale unicorn answered.

"Carrot?" she asked, rubbing her eyes. "Do you have any idea what time it is?"

"Nicee to ssee you, too, Coral." said Carrot, rushing passed her.

Coral closed the door and turned around.

"What is it?"

"I need you to make me something."

"What is it?" asked Coral with a yawn.

"I need you to turn these..." Carrot started, dumping out the wood. "into stakes."

"Stakes?" asked Coral. "What for?"

"Just do it." urged Carrot. "Please?"

Coral yawned.

"All right." she said. "Just let me go take a shower so I can wake up."

"Thank you." said Carrot as Coral went upstairs.

Carrot looked around at the workplace. There were table saws and a furnace, as well as various carpenter tools and some metal. Carrot suddenly heard a scream from upstairs.

"Coral?" Carrot asked frantically. "Coral!"

She grabbed a piece of wood in her mouth and took off towards the stairs. When she got to the second floor she stood in the hall, listening for a noise.

"Coral?" Carrot called through the stake.

"Carrot!" came Coral's voice. "Help!"

Carrot ran to the bathroom and burst through the door. A black mare with a red mane had Coral pinned to the floor, trying to bite her.

"Get off her!" Carrot mumbled.

The mare looked at Carrot and hissed. She then leapt into the air, heading for the orange mare. Carrot delivered a punch to the mare in mid-air, causing her to fall to the ground. She then slammed a hoof down on the mare's neck, holding her down. She then held the stake with her two front hooves and drove it downwards, stabbing the mare in the heart. The attacker let out a screech as she burst into smoke.

"What was that?" Coral asked, walking over to Carrot.

"The reason why I need wooden stakes."

Coral paused to think. "I'll make you something even better."

Carrot Top stood in front of a vertical mirror.

"Like it?" asked Coral.

Carrot Top held up her hoof, examining the hoof ring with the stake attached to it. The ring was about an inch away from her hoof. The stake didn't even clear her hoof.

"How am I supposed to use this if it can't reach out far enough?"

"Simple." said Coral. "Just imagine it getting longer."

"Say what?" Carrot asked.

Coral giggled. "Try it."

Carrot sighed. She looked at the stake and imagined it getting bigger. To her surprise, it did. It instantly became 50% longer.

"Whoa." said Carrot in delightful surprise.

"Cool, huh?" asked Coral. "I enchanted them. All you have to do is imagine it and they'll grow instantly."

"Sweet." said Carrot, looking at both stakes on her hooves.

"Now, those creatures don't stand a chance."

First Contact

Carrot 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.

Finding Out A Thing Or Two

"You sure you wanna do this?" asked Coral.

She and Carrot stood out in the blackened streets of Hoofington.

"Yes." said Carrot. "We need to find one so we know what we're dealing with."

They looked up and down the streets but saw nothing.

"Where do you suppose they are?" asked Coral.

Carrot squinted to see if she could see better. "I have no idea."

The two began walking, making sure to be on their guard at all times.

"I'm scared, Carrot." whispered Coral.

"Me, too." Carrot admitted, pressing up against the side of a building and peeking into the alley. "Me, too."

"See anything?" asked Coral quietly.

Carrot held up a hoof to silence her.

"There's two of them."

"Wha--"

Carrot held a hoof over Coral's mouth.

"Shh." she urged.

"Who's there?" said one of the creatures.

He was a colt with a black coat and a fire-y red mane. The other was grey colt with a black mane.

"Buck." whispered Carrot.

"Who's there?" the colt demanded again.

Carrot took a deep breath and stepped out into view.

"Hello, boys." she said.

"Who are you?" the grey colt asked.

"Me?" asked Carrot. "Who are you?"

The black colt smirked and lunged. Carrot held up a hoof and the stake on it extended. The colt stopped just before hitting it.

"I see you know a thing or two about us." he said.

"I know a bit." she said. "Now who do you work for?"

The colt smiled. "You don't know?"

"I'm just starting off."

"Is that so?" asked the colt.

He swung his hoof upwards, knocking Carrot's hoof away before wrapping a forleg around her neck and pulling her close. He grinned again. This time Carrot saw his fangs.

"You're just starting off and you though you'd take on the Kronos clan?" He let out a laugh. "Big mistake."

he threw her into the side of the building and watched as she fell to the ground.

"Carrot!" yelled Coral.

The colt looked up.

"Well, well, well." said the colt. "Look what we have here, Dex. Another mare to play with."

Carrot slowly looked up as the grey colt shot by and pinned Coral to the ground.

"What shall we do with you?" Dex asked.

Carrot slowly started to get up.

"Hey, Midnight." said Dex, pointing at Carrot. "Look."

Midnight returned his gaze to Carrot who had managed to get back on her hooves.

"I'll give you a choice." said Midnight. "How should we kill your friend?"

Carrot let out a yell as her right hoof stake extended. She then stabbed Midnight in the shoulder. He only winced as it pierced his skin.

"Missed." he said.

He whacked Carrot across the face with the back of his hoof, knocking her to the ground.

"Let's just kill both of them." said Dex, still holding Coral down.

"No. Scourge wants this one alive." he said, looking at Carrot. "Kill that one."

Dex looked down at Coral. "With pleasure." Dex raised a hoof but stopped. "Midnight. Look."

Midnight noticed it, too.

"We have to go." he said. "Come on!"

The two colts took off, disappearing around a corner. Carrot looked up and saw it, too.

"The sun." she said aloud. She got up and ran over to Coral. "You okay?"

"Yeah, I'll live." she answered, getting up."What'd you find out?"

"Quite a bit." said Carrot with a smile.
