Stormy brought then into the room. It was on a different floor than the fillies’ rooms.

“Alright.

The room has two bedrooms, a kitchen, a bathroom, a dining room, two closets

and a balcony,” Stormy said dryly.

“Just sign your names here and I’ll give you your keys. You’re not expected to pay

anything. This is a building made to house the orphaned, the abused, the

abandoned, the homeless, the poor, and the misfortunate,”

He gave them a quill and they signed their names. Stormy gave them the keys. One pair

each.

“Now if you excuse me I have to go tell my mom’s annoying little residents that a ghost

story is a ghost story,” Stormy said.

He went

to go talk to the fillies.

After a while the shadow figure watched them and then left and went inside a building.

Suddenly the building blew up.

“What was that?!,” Twilight asked.

“I don’t know,” the Doctor replied.

They were interrupted by the three fillies running outside very alert with saddlebags.

“Hey, where are they going?,” Twilight asked.

The Doctor was already following them.

The three fillies ran towards the sound very determined, almost like they knew what was going on. But they stopped short of the building. It was a brick building, completely blown up. Some planks of wood were on fire and nearly half the building’s bricks were lying around.

“Where did he go?,” Acid asked.

The other two shrugged.

“Guys! What are you doing?,” Twilight asked, as the two catched up.

The three suddenly looked figety.

“Oh….. Nothing. Just though I reconized somepony out here,” Acid Fall quickly responded.

“Huh. We’ll we were just about to investigate. Would you like to join us?,” the Doctor asked calmly.

The three fillies looked at eack other.

“What? Oh. Oh! Um. Um….. Sure,” Acid said.

“Grand,” the Doctor said, gently ruffling Acid’s mane.

The group started to walk off.

“Doctor. What are we doing. What if something dangerous is going on. How are these fillies’ supposed to help?,” Twilight asked.

“They clearly know something about what happened. Either their envoloved in what just happened, or they know someone who is and aren’t saying. We can’t let them out our sight. Not even for a second,” the Doctor expalined.

They walked into a wearhouse.

They walked into one of the rooms and the Doctor looked out the window which was towards the destroyed building, but that wasn’t what was scary, what was scary was what was between the two buildings. The long alley. The Doctor squinted his eyes.

“Wait. …. Wait a minute,” he said.

“What is it?,” Twilight asked.

Acid walked over and also looked out the window, she planted her two fore hooves on the window seal.

“This alley. It a dark as night, the sun’s still out. That’s not right. This alley should be getting sunlight,” the Doctor said.

Acid squinted her eyes. Two red angry eyes appereared ontop of the darkenss and lashed out. It grabbed Acid by her two front hooves and pulled her out of the building. She squeeled. The Doctor's eyes widened and he quickly grabbed her, locking his hooves around her chest and ribs.

"Ok! No! Starting to make sense!," the Doctor said trying to pull Acid back into the building. He quickly grabbed the rope that was tied to the foot of the bed and wrapped it around himself to keep him ancord, but still got pulled out of the window.

"Doctor!," Twilight screamed looking out the window.

The two fillies looked at the darkness below them and rolled their eyes.

"Oh no. Not again," Spell said exasperated.

Then end ran out of rope and stopped the two's fall. They looked down, the darkness had turned into a very bright and colorful black hole. Red and blue and gold. It was also roaring.

"Ok. That's not normal. Hold on, and try not to move," The Doctor said, keeping one hoof firmly gripped onto Acid when getting the sonic screwdriver from her pocket.

The darkness however, had it's grip on all four of Acid's legs, and pulling hard.

"Ya.... I'm afraid both those things are impossible for me to do right now," Acid said, straining from the strength of the force trying to pull her down.

"Fair point," the Doctor agreed.

He used his sonic screwdriver on the rope and the two were quickly pulled back up. The Doctor got into the building and then got two hooves on Acid again. He pulled as hard as he could, stretching the tentacles and then using the sonic screwdriver on them. the black hole roared again and let go of Acid, making the two fall back and into the wall on the other side of the room.

"Are you two okay?," Twilight asked walking over.

"I think so," the Doctor said letting go of Acid and the two got up.

"Thank you," Acid said.

Before the Doctor could say anything, they heard a deep, raspy, airy voice.

"ACID. COME AND PLAY. ACID," the black hole said.

The other went over and looked through the window.

"You know, if any pony else heard a living creature of darkness that looks like something that should not be alive talk to them, it would be weird," Acid said ignoring what the black hole said.

"Well it's reasonably clear that you two know each other. But there is one thing troubling me. And believe me I really feel uncomfortable saying this. Why haven't you eaten anyone yet?," the Doctor said.

"EATTEN? OH NO. I DON'T EAT PONIES. I EAT.... I.... EAT,"

"What? What do you eat?," the Doctor asked.

"I EAT.... FEAR!," it said.

Then it morphed. Turning into a small, but still very large compared to ponies, pitch black cloud, with red pony eyes and razor sharp teeth, looking at them evilly.
