Chapters "And that should do it!" Twilight exclaimed, putting away the last chair in the schools gymnasium.
"Finally. That was a lot of work to clean up" Rainbow Dash sighed.
"Oh it wasn't that bad ..." Fluttershy muttered.
"Whatever. I'm tired. Let's tell ghost stories!" Rainbow exclaimed excitedly, a smirk growing on her face.
"Yeah! That would be great!" Scootaloo chimed in.
Equestrian Middle School just hosted a dance party to celebrate halloween, and Twilight and her friends, and their little sisters stayed behind to clean up the gymnasium.
"Ugh Scootaloo, yer always actin so brave an' everything but in reality, yer a chicken " Applebloom cried out, her eyes narrowing down.
"Yeah!" Sweetiebelle agreed hastily.
"Oh but girls! Spooky stories are great! Especially now! Its dark out, its us girlies, OOH I'LL GET THE POPCORN!" Pinkie dashed around excitedly, and disappeared shortly, soon returning with a bag of popcorn in her hooves.
"Ah still dunno how ye do that, sugar. But anyway, a scary story sounds great" Applejack put in her agreement.
"Eeyup" Big Macintosh nodded.
Rainbow Dash set up a candle, and lit it with a nearby match. Everypony huddled around the dreary flame.
"Rumor has it, many years ago, that before Equestrian Middle School was built here, there was a school called Celestial Eclipse Elementary school. And in that story, after that school was torn down, this school came to be. So basically, where Equestria Middle School is standing, there was Celestial Eclipse Elementary." Rainbow Dash began quietly. She looked around at her audience. She had each pony captivated in her story.
"Keep going darling" Rarity pressed.
"Anyway, so why was this school torn down? We will never know what happened during then ... But it all started when a nurse fell to her death down a flight of stairs. And this nurse, happened to be the wife of the principal. The principal was devastated. But it didn't end there. Students began to disappear one by one ... Police officers came by frequently to patrol the school. Nothing was found. HOWEVER, several months later, the bodies of the foals were found. They were mutilated, bloodied corpses. The school was shut down that day. What happened to the principal? Well, what I heard is that he climbed to the roof and jumped to his death. Celestial Eclipse was then closed down, and destroyed. But the scary part is, even though Celestial Eclipse is no longer around, the nurse silently and sadly roams the school, shortly after seven when everyone has gone home, not even realizing she's dead"
Rainbow Dash paused for a moment. Not a pony said a word.
"That's truly awful .." Twilight whispered.
Scootaloo seemed to be frozen in place.
"Uhh ... Scootaloo?" Rarity nudged the frozen pegasi. Scootaloo didn't move.
Rainbow glanced at the orange filly.
"Hey Scoots"
She didn't respond. Her eyes widened for a moment, before she opened her mouth,
"That's a huge load of chicken shit right there" She said simply, before closing her eyes ignorantly.
"Eeyup" Big Mac nodded.
That caused angry glares shooting from the cyan Pegasus.
"Hey! It'snot a load of chicken shit" Rainbow replied angrily, as she stamped a hoof into the wooden floor.
Pinkies bright blue eyes were wide.
"But hey you're a great story teller!" She giggled, with her usual sing-song voice.
"I sure hope that story isn't real ..." Fluttershy whimpered before hiding slightly behind her pastel mane.
"Don't worry Fluttershy. Even if it did, it took place in the past. That story is old" Twilight reassured her gentle and kind friend.
Just as Twilight finished her sentence, the lit match blew out, and the room was as dark as night. Several of the ponies let out cries, and Fluttershy leaped into Twilights hooves to hide.
"W-Whats going on!?" Sweetie Belle cried, her voice interrupting the cries of the other ponies.
"I don't know, come here darling!" Rarity called nervously.
"Alright Rainbow Dash, cut the crap. Re-light the candle and stop scaring us!" Twilight's voice had an edge to it, and it was laced with fury.
"It's not me!" Rainbow Dash spat.
The sound of the door opening in the darkness caused the ponies to quiet down.
"Rainbow Dash ... We need you to ..." Twilight began slowly
"That's .... Not me" Rainbow Dash said quietly.
An eerie voice rang out from behind the door.
"Whaaaat are you dooinnng, lingerring in my schoooooool ....."
Pinkie screamed.
"ITS THE GHOST NURSE! RUUUUN!" The pink mare yelled out.
"Just kidding. What are you all doing out here so late?" A familiar voice replaced the eerie one from moments ago. The lights flickered on, and Cheerilee stood giggling at the door of the gymnasium.
"Mrs. Cheerilee!?" The ten ponies said in union.
"Yup! Anyway, I thought the cleaning up was done awhile ago. It's getting late, you should start heading home soon" Cheerilee trotted to the group.
"You scared me to death !" Applebloom said irritatingly. That only caused a short chuckle from Cheerilee.
"Yes, I'm sorry about that"
"Sorry Mrs. Cheerilee. It's my fault. This is my last day in Ponyville since I'm off for Canterlot tomorrow. The Princess' invited me to stay with them in the castle, since well," Twilight blushed slightly as she unfurled her wings.
Cheerilee nodded.
"I see, and we truly will miss you!"
Everypony turned to Twilight.
"Awh, thats true. Tonight is our last night together" Applejack sighed.
"But hey! We could always take the train to visit you, or you could visit us!" Rarity added in, giving a small smile.
Twilight nodded.
"There's this charm I would like to do with all of you, to ensure that we're friends forever" Twilight stated. She reached into her saddle bag sitting in one corner, and took out several beads.
"Hold onto these beads to remind you that were friends to the end. I'm going to cast a spell onto it, and you all need to say "friends forever" eleven times.
Twilight passed out each bead to each pony, each individual giving a happy grin upon the charm.
As each bead was given, Twilight broke the silence.
"Now, we all must say "friends forever" eleven times, or else this will fail"
Twilight closed her eyes, the other ponies copying her.
Moments later, they opened their eyes.
"Did you all do it?" Nods of agreement came from the crowd.
"I'm gonna keep this FIVEVER!" Pinkie squealed happily.
Twilight was going to open her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by a sudden force that shook the school violently.
Screams of terror burst out among the ponies.
"Everyone! Get under a desk! NOW!" Cheerilee cried.
The herd didn't need to be told twice. Each mare (and the stallion) huddled under the desks. Twilight heard Fluttershy gasp suddenly, and the purple princess looked over to the butter yellow mare. Beneath her, the ground had split, and Fluttershy let out a high pitch wail as she ground beneath her gave away, and sent her plunging below.
"FLUTTERSHY!" Twilight yowled, the other ponies looked up and made out Twilight through the trembling ground.
Twilight attempted to run over to the spot where Fluttershy had fallen. The ground beneath her hooves shook, and she stumbled several times before the whole floor gave away. Each pony cried out as they fell into darkness.
"Nnnggg" Twilight Sparkle slowly opened her eyes. Her vision was darting and dancing before her. All around her, was darkness.
"Oww ..." Twilight lifted a hoof and touched her hoof against her head, and winced.
Wha ... What happened? Oh .... Right. Where am I? The puzzled unicorn looked around at her surroundings. Worn down chairs and desks were laid messily on the floor, and it looked as if it hadn't been used in years.
What is this place? Twilight got up uncertainly, and pain stabbed through her hind leg. She let out a gasp as she stumbled down to the floor again. She flattened her ears against her head, and with great effort, she stood up.
She didn't recognize her surroundings at all. Glancing out a broken window nearby, she could barely tell whether it was painted on, or just really .... dark outside.
Well, I don't know what I'm doing here but I have to get out of here Twilight thought as she staggered across the old, creaking wood below her hooves. She limped around the broken chairs, and slight fear started to grow inside her chest.
Now that I think about it ... It almost looks like a class room Twilight thought uncertainly, as she glanced over to a dusty chalk board towards the right end of the class.
'That would explain the chairs and desks. But I don't understand! I don't recall an abandoned school in Ponyville, or anywhere, really. The best thing I could do right now is try to get the hell out of here'
Twilight staggered out of the class room, and the fear within her chest grew as she carefully examined the hallways. Debris, loose papers, and trash littered the hallways. The floorboards looked as if they were going to give any second, and the walls were dirty and dark. No lights were found, whatsoever.
Twilight gulped and limped down the hallway. It gave off a creepy aura, as if she was being watched. She tried her best to stay focused and calm.
Toward the end of the hallway, a bright, well, not so bright here, but a pink color came into view. It was Pinkie Pie. She was leaning against the end of the hallway against the wall, and her eyes were shut as if she were sleeping.
'Pinkie Pie!' Twilight gasped. With all her effort, she attempted to run towards her pink party friend.
"Pinkie Pie! Pinkie Pie, it's me, Twilight!"
Pinkie stirred slightly. Twilight rushed over and knelt before the earth pony.
"Pinkie Pie! Wake up!" Twilight nudged Pinkie with her hoof.
"Ugh. Is it breakfast already?" Pinkie wiped her eyes with a hoof and wearily blinked her eyes open.
"Uhh Twilight?" Pinkie said, confused.
"Yes I'm here. Pinkie, are you okay?" Twilight asked, helping Pinkie up.
"Yeah I'm great but ... Where is everypony?" Pinkie looked around, puzzled. Her eyes widened.
"And where are we!?" She exclaimed a little nervously.
Twilight shook her head.
"I'm not sure where we are. I'm just glad I found you. Come on, we need to get out of here, and find the others"
Pinkie nodded.
"We better hurry. This place is SPOOOOKY" Pinkie mentioned, with her blue eyes widened. Twilight turned to look at the end of the hall. Two worn down doors were at the end of the hall.
"Come on. Let's see what's on the other side of those doors. I just ... I want to get out of here as soon as possible" Twilight said stressingly. Pinkie nodded in agreement, and skipped behind Twilight, taking the lead down to the doors.
"Hey Twily, are you alright? that leg looks like an owie. Did ya sprain it or something?" Pinkie asked, eyeing Twilights leg carefully. Twilight sighed.
"Yeah, I must've landed on it wrong as I fell" Twilight winced as she attempted to put her hoof down.
Pinkie cocked her head.
"here well I can help you!" She said happily, standing near Twilight so she can lean onto her. Twilight gave a small smile.
"Thank you, Pinkie"
"Don't mention it~" Pinkie chirped.
The two mares made their way to the end of the hall carefully, and in silence, avoiding debris along the way. Upon reaching the two doors, Twilight stood up right, and eyed the door. She tilted her head, and fear grew in her chest. Pinkie just watched Twilight intensely.
"Well ... I'm a little nervous to see whats behind these doors, but, here I go" Twilight said uncertainly as she focused on her horn. Her heart stopped as her magic didn't seem to work, or reach the door.
"Huh ... That's strange" Twilight said slowly.
"What's wrong Twilight? Isn't this basic magic? Oh! Or maybe the school we are in is SO mystical and SO old that magic doesn't even work here!" Pinkie gasped.
"Ohmygosh! WERE NOT EVEN IN EQUESTRIA " Pinkie pretended to faint, and collapsed to the floor. Dust rose to the air upon her collision.
"Pinkie! What are you talking about? Of course we're in Equestria ..." Twilight said uncertainly.
'But .... But what if she's right? Pinkie was barely wrong before ... I have to try my magic once more' Twilight refocused on the door. Twisting her face in concentration, what she planned to do, was open the door, and bring three of the loose floor boards inside the open doors.
Nothing moved. Everything stayed in place.
Twilight gasped.
"But ... But I don't understand! Pinkie how-"
Pinkie shrugged.
"Just a hunch. I bet those doors won't even open without your magic" Pinkie suggested. Twilight swallowed nervously and limped to the door. Squeezing her eyes shut, she placed a hoof on the door, and with small effort, she pushed.
With her eyes squeezed so tightly, the door barely budged. In fact, it didn't even move at all. Twilight's eyes opened, and she looked at the door. She pushed again, but harder. It didn't move.
"what " she exclaimed, pushing harder on the door. It didn't move at all, it didn't look as if she was pressing onto it in the first place. It looked real, but it could've been ... Decoration?
Twilight shook her head in surprise and back up.
"I-I don't understand! How is this ... How is this even possible .." Twilight's voice trailed off, and she looked at the floor in defeat.
"Awh Twilight. Cheer up, we'll find a way back to Equestria, and we'll find our friends. We just have to keep our spirits high. Come on! Where should we look first?" Pinkie leaped up, and bounced down one of the dark, loomy hallways away from the doors. Twilight limped sadly behind the cheerful pony.
"Wow! These doors won't open!" Pinkie exclaimed, pressing on each door they passed.
Twilight's fear was growing each second. Something didn't seem right anymore. Almost as if they were being followed.
"Hey, uh, Pinkie, maybe we should slow down a bit" Twilight called nervously to the bouncing pony. Pinkie didn't seem to hear her, she continued to giggle and bounce ahead.
"La la la la laaa~" Pinkie chirped.
"Pinkie Pie!" Twilight called louder. Pinkie continued to move ahead, she didn't even glance at Twilight. In fact, it almost seemed as if Pinkie was bouncing faster, faster away from Twilight, skipping down the corridor.
"PINKIE PIE!" Twilight cried, she stopped, and waited for Pinkie Pie to respond. But Pinkie Pie only continued to sing and jump further, and further away, soon leaving Twilight alone. At the end of the hall, Pinkie paused. She looked at Twilight, giggled and poked her tongue out.
"Pinkie Pie! This isn't funny! Come back here!" Twilight yelled down the hall.
Pinkie didn't respond. She just winked, and turned the corner.
As soon as Pinkie Pie disappeared, a dull ringing rang in Twilight's ears.
"Augh!" She gasped, and fell, covering her ears with her hooves. The ringing intensified, and seemed to take over her whole body.
Wha- What's going on!? She could barely hear her own thoughts above the high ringing in her head. She squeezed her eyes shut, and the ringing stopped. Twillight's heart was pounding loudly and rapidly. Pinkie's giggling seemed to come from all directions.
"Pinkie ..." Twilight moaned. The giggling echoed off the walls of her head, and consumed her.
"PINKIE!"
"What's wrong, you silly filly?" Pinkie's familiar voice asked out in concern.
Twilight opened her eyes to be greeted with Pinkie's blue ones.
"Pinkie Pie? What ..." Twilight's voice trailed off.
"What happened? I dunno! We were trotting together and all of a sudden you just stopped and fell to the ground and rocked back and forth. You really had me worried there! You were laughing to yourself. It was weird!" Pinkie shrugged.
"Oh well. You're fine now. Come on!" Pinkie stood up and helped Twilight up.
But ... I .... Was I really? Oh well ... I guess I'll let it slide
Twilight limped behind the jumping Pinkie Pie, lost in her train of thought.
But I don't understand. I remember that ringing, and that awful giggling ... How, I can't comprehend this. Maybe, maybe I'm just tired. Maybe I need to have a break. Maybe I need. Hey, what's that? A blue light was shining brightly, and Pinkie also stopped to admire its glow.
"Oooh so pretty!" Pinkie cooed.
"What is that?" Twilight asked, tilting her head.
"Hello. I knew I felt your presences here, but now I guess we finally meet"
Twilight's eyesbrows furled.
"How are you talking? What are you? Where are we?" Twilight asked, pressing.
"I am the spirit of a pony who died here many years ago ... Of course I can talk, I was just like you once. And where are we?I don't know for sure, but we surely aren't in Equestria. We're almost in, an alternate universe if you would like to say. We're in the era of Celestial Eclipse Middle school if you would like to say. Many ponies were brought here against their will. Innocent ones, even. We're all doomed here *sob* I'm sorry, I don't mean to crush your spirit but there's no way out ..."
Pinkie looked bewildered.
"What do you mean no way out!?" She asked in terror.
The spirit let out a sigh.
"The charm brought us here, and because well, you bucked up, vengeful spirits brought you here. I can also sense ponies, including you. I'm assuming these are your friends?"
"Yes! Pinkie, now we know they're here! We have to find them and get out of here!" Twilight exclaimed, new determination lit in her eyes.
"If you don't recall me saying there's no way out, then you're doomed here. Well, I guess you're doomed here either way. Hahaha. And your friends? Well, they're surely not in this space. They're in this school, yes, but not in this space"
Twilight and Pinkie looked at each other in confusion.
"Space?" Twilight asked slowly
"Yes. Four of the vengeful spirits, four spaces. It's hard to explain. Almost as if you're all in different univereses, but not really. I know this is hard to take in, but it's the bitter truth. At least you have somepony. For all we know, somepony could be alone in this hell hole. Stick together, die together. That's a fate worth fighting for"
Pinkie's jaw dropped to the floor.
"D-d-DIE TOGETHER!?" She cried out in fear.
Twilight stomped her hoof down, and glared at the spirit.
"How could you say such terrible thing!? We will get out of here! I ... I know we will! And we will find our friends! We'll find a way through these spaces ... I hope" Twilight's voice trailed off uncertainly.
"Well I sure wish you the best of luck" it said, before it's light vanished, leaving Pinkie and Twilight in the dark. Twilight shook her head sadly.
"How can this be happening to us?" Twilight whimpered before collapsing to the ground, tears brimming her purple eyes.
"Awh Twilight ... Cheer up ... I'm sure we'll find a way out" Pinkie said, although her voice wasn't very convincing.
Twilight buried her head in her hooves.
"Come on. All we can do now is stay calm and think. Let's go find somewhere to rest your leg" Pinkie smiled, and helped Twilight up.
How is Pinkie remaining optimistic in a time like this? Twilight thought as she staggered after Pinkie Pie, who slowed her pace so Twilight could keep up. Something shiny caught Twilight's eye.
"What's this?" Twilight asked, leaning over and reaching the shiny object in her mouth.
Pinkie observed it for a few moments.
"It looks like a key!" She exclaimed. Her eyes brightened up.
"Maybe there's treasure!" Her voice was laced with excitement. Twilight shook her head furiously.
"No, Pinkie! There's no treasure! We're in the middle of NOWHERE! There's no treasure here " Twilight snapped, glaring at Pinkie. Pinkie's usual pink poofy hair deflated, and her lower lip curled up. She looked down.
"Yeah I guess you're right ... I'm so stupid .." Pinkie whimpered.
Twilight rolled her eyes.
"Come on Pinkie. Let's move it" She said, and limped ahead, with the key's rope around her neck like a necklace. Twilight marched on, with Pinkie behind her, moving sadly.
After what seemed like half an hour of trudging through the Celestiaforsaken building, Pinkie broke the dense silence.
"The infirmary is over here" She stated. Twilight turned around, and limped towards Pinkie.
"Right how could I miss it" Twilight muttered. She took her hoof and tried the door knob. The door didn't budge, because it seemed to be locked. Twilight took the key from off her neck, and inserted it into the keyhole. Conveniently, it was a perfect fit. The knob clicked, and the door creaked open.
It was pure darkness inside the room. New fear grew in Twilight's chest.
"Pinkie, do you have a candle or match"
Pinkie nodded, and pulled out a match and candle from her mane
I still don't know how she does that
Twilight scraped one match against the old wood underhoof, and the match hissed to life. Carefully, the unicorn placed the small flame onto the candle.
"Now we have a bit of light" Twilight stated, before looking back into the room. It wasn't as dark, as her eyes already adjusted. Nothing seemed out wrong, but it matched the demeanor as the rest of the school. There were two, green ratty beds in one corner, shelves that were previously stalked with medical goods, and a cabinet, that appeared to be locked.
Twilight and Pinkie both stared into the room, not one of them daring to go in first. Twilight gulped nervously.
Pinkie's been brave enough to hold a smiling face throughout this nightmare, I should go in first
Twilight stepped a hoof inside the room. Her hoofstep echoed as it hit the wood. When nothing out of the ordinary happened, she fully stepped inside. Nothing happened. She hobbled over to the bed, and inhaled the musky scent of sickness on the bed. Pinkie brought in the candle, and its flame danced on the walls around them, and gave off a bright, hopeful light. It was almost good enough to be used as a real light. Twilight took a seat down on the furthest bed so Pinkie can join her.
"Alrighty! So there must be something here to treat that sprain of yours. I'm going to find something, I'll be right back" Pinkie said as she trotted to the end of the room, and she began to rummage through the medical supplies
'Wow ... I feel bad for being so curt with Pinkie. I'll have to apologize. I guess I also feel bad since her mane is flat, and won't poof back up. I'm used to seeing the happy Pinkie, not the scared one pretending to be happy' Twilight felt a twinge of guilt twist within her.
"Erf fernd sermthinf" Pinkie said through a mouthful of white tensor bandage. Twilight pushed out her wounded hoof, and Pinkie tied the tensor around her hoof tenderly, but firmly. She finished it off by pinning it in place with a safety pin.
"That should do it!" Pinkie smiled at her work. Twilight smiled.
"Wow, thanks Pinkie. It feels better already!" Twilight joked lightly. While it didn't feel better completely, it did help ease the pain a bit.
"No problemo!" Pinkie plopped herself down onto the bed, and gazed up at the ceiling.
"You know Twi" She began
Twilight glanced at the pink pony.
"I know you like Big Mac" Pinkie gave a small, seductive smile. Twilight gasped
"What? N-no I don't!" She stammered. A small blush formed on her cheeks.
"Okay maybe a little but so what?" Twilight admitted, but tried to put on a demeanor as if she doesn't care. Pinkie shrugged.
"Nothing. It's just you make it really obvious, hehe!" Pinkie turned away and looked back up at the ceiling. Twilight looked up to see what was so great about the ceiling, but like the rest of the school, it looked like it was about to give away. Cracks lined the ceiling, and some tiles were missing in some areas.
Twilight let out a sigh.
Pinkie broke the silence once more.
"What are you gonna do with him?" Pinkie asked curiously.
"What do you mean?" Twilight asked uncertainly.
"Well, in crises two usually get a little kinky~" Pinkie's voice was rather seductive, and she could hear the smirk in her voice. Twilight reddened even more.
"W-Well Big Mac and I won't do anything!" Twilight turned away, indicating the conversation was over.
Pinkie let out a genuine giggle, despite their situation. Twilight opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by an awfully familiar cry.
Both ponies sat up in shock, and looked at one another.
"That sounded like Applebloom!" Pinkie Pie cried.
"Stay here. I'm going to find her!" Pinkie jumped out of the bed, and sprinted out of the infirmiry.
"No Pinkie! Wait!" Twilight cried after her friend, but it was too late. She rested her head on the pillow, but the sound of the door shutting made her sit up again. Her heart pounded furiously, as the room went deathly cold. Terror shook through Twilight violently. Something wasn't right.
"H-Hello?" Twilight called out nervously. Nothing replied her pathetic call.
'Its probably my imagination. Nothing to get worked up about. Although, I should check the door ...' Twilight carefully got out of the bed, and she limped slowly to the door, which certainly was shut. She grabbed the knob with her hoof, and tried to open it. The door shook, but refused to open.
"The hell?" Twilight tried again vigorously. The door wasn't locked. They unlocked it earlier, and besides, it could only be locked from the outside, and Twilight herself had the key.
Twilight violently pounded at the door.
"PINKIE! PINKIE IM STUCK!" She yelled out, but Pinkie didn't come back. A shadow formed in her peripheral vision.
Twilight turned her head slowly, to see a dark figure standing in the corner of the room. Twilight's eyes widened with fear, as she went to try the door once more. She gasped out as thick, black mane came from nowhere and began to tie itself around the doors, sealing them shut for good.
"No!" Twilight cried. She whipped her head back to the dark figure. It emitted a dark aura, and its outline glowed a blood red. It opened its mouth, and rows of sharp teeth lined the inside of its mouth. It let out a cool smile and began to make its way to Twilight. Twilight let out a cry and began to dart as fast as she can to the candle. To her advantage, the black figure was slow moving.
I can burn the hair with the flame of the candle! She carelessly picked up the candle between her teeth, and let the flame meet the mane. Looking back at the dark figure, it was almost at her. Twilight let out a scared sob. The smell of burning mane was immense, and disgusting. It made Twilight want to throw up, but she held steady. Gasping as the creature got close, she bucked the door with as much strength as she could muster, despite her sprained hoof. The door slammed open, and she sprinted out the room as fast as she can, and down the hallway. The pain stabbing in her back hoof was threatening to aggravate the injury more, but the purple unicorn was desperate.
She saw Pinkie at the end of the hall.
"PINKIE PIE!" She cried out. Pinkie looked over, gasped, and dashed over to Twilight.
"Twilight! What happened!?" Pinkie gasped.
"G-ghost ... Chased me .... Tried to ... kill me " Twilight stammered between breaths. Pinkie narrowed her eyes and looked behind Twilight.
"I'm going to find this ghost and teach it a lesson!" Pinkie snarled. Her whole face lit up for a sec.
"Oh did you laugh your fears away?" Pinkie said, her voice changed briefly.
"Huh?"
"When I was a little filly and the sun was going dooooowwwn ...." Pinkie started, a smile formed on her lips and she began a small dance.
"Pinkie Pie this is no time for a song! " Twilight said angrily.
"Oh right. My bad. Well, the ghost seems to be gone" Pinkie said simply. Twilight nodded.
"Probably is" She muttered.
"Did you find Applebloom?" Twilight asked, looking up.
Pinkie shook her head.
"No sign at all"
Twilight flipped.
"WHAT? WE HEARD HER. SHES HERE. YOU JUST DIDN'T LOOK FOR HER YOU GOOD FOR NOTHING MARE. I COUNTED ON YOU TO SAVE A POOR FILLY, AND DID YOU FIND HER? NO! YOU DIDN'T! INSTEAD YOU LEFT ME FOR A GHOST TO CATCH!" Twilight yelled. She was livid. Sudden anger coursed through her body.
"AND OF COURSE, OF COURSE ITS YOUR FAULT" Twilight continued to let her wrath fall upon Pinkie. Her eyes were brimming with tears.
"I - I" Pinkie began, before bursting into loud sobs, and running past Twilight. Twilight watched her leave, before the anger left her body.
WHAT THE HELL? That .. That wasn't like me at all! What's wrong with me!? Oh my gosh I have to apologize!
"PINKIE PIE! I'm sorry I didn't mean it! Please come back" Twilight cried out, but Pinkie didn't return.
"Pinkie Pie!" Twilight called out, but she never got a response back from the party mare. She followed the hallway Pinkie took, and as she walked down, she noticed a door was open that wasn't before. Curiously, and suspiciously, Twilight trotted over to the door. It was the mare's lavatory, and a gagging sound came from one of the stalls. Twilight slowly, and cautiously made her way to the stall. A rope was suspended from the ceiling above, and Twilight mustered her courage, and kicked the door open. Inside the door, was Pinkie Pie, dangling from a rope tied around her neck. She was weakly pawing at the rope in a feeble attempt to save herself.
"PINKIE!" Twilight yelled out!
I have to save her!
Twilight rushed into the stall, and fumbled with the rope around the neck. It only tightened the bondage.
Shit!
"Pinkie hold on I'll save you!"
whatdoidowhatdoido WHAT DO I DO!? Twilight paced around, searching for something to help Pinkie up.
!
Twilight raced out of the lavatory, and took hold of a bucket just outside. Inside the bucket was a lump of bloody meat, and maggots crawled over it, and digging into it like a feast. Twilight almost puked on the spot, but she dumped out the contents, and it made a squishy splat as it hit the floor. Several maggots crawled onto Twilights hoof. Twilight cried out, and shook the little worms off of her. She picked up the dirty bucket in her mouth, and ran over to Pinkie. Twilight just stared. Pinkie wasn't fighting the rope anymore. She just hung lifelessly, and was slowly swinging from side to side. Her dull pink coat was duller, and her former bright blue eyes were now blank, and lifeless.
Twilight shrunk back.
"nononononon NONONONONO!" Twilight wailed.
"PINKIE!? HOW COULD YOU HAVE HUNG YOURSELF!?" Twilight's wail echoed off of the lavatory.
"I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO MAKE IT OUT TOGETHER! YOU AND I! BUT! But ...." Twilight's voice trailed off, and she let out a sob. She collapsed onto the floor, and her tears dripped from her eyes, and made a small puddle on the floor.
"Pinkie ... Why? Now I can't even apologize" Twilight shook her head.
"I wasn't in the right mind. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry!" Twilight bestowed, before bowing her head, and giving into the sadness welling inside of her.
Yes hello, I have a few concerns regarding this story ... I don't think I'm going to finish this, to be honest. 5 likes and 4 likes is super discouraging. I'm just gonna start a new story or something, I don't know. Whatever. This story isn't appreciated, so why waste my time writing it? No one likes it anyway, so I guess that's that. Say goodbye to My Little Corpse Party ... I'll put it on hiatus just in case you guys wanna change my mind :(
