A Game?

"Spike?" Twilight Sparkle shouts through the castle corridors. "Spike!" She opens many a door in her new and shiny castle in an attempt to find her dragon friend. "Spike! Come on! Stop sleeping, we got work to do!" She yells through another hallway. "Why does this place have to have so many rooms?!" Twilight mutters to herself. She opens another door, and what she found.... She'll never forget. Her beloved Spike.... At first she thought all was well.... "There you are! I have be-" She breaks off as she takes a closer look. A rope, tied around his neck. His feet did not touch the ground. "Sp-Spike...." Tears start rushing down Twilight's face. "N-NO!" She screeches and collapses to the floor in front of his dead body. "Wh-why would you do this...." She asks him. "I-I" She looks away and buries her face in her hooves.
