Trapped and Afraid

A single drop of water fell on the alicorn princess that was enough to wake her up along with her friends. They were al chained up to the neck, legs and of course wings for the pegasi, especially Rainbow Dash who was shocked then tried to fly up but was brought back down by the chain.

"What the hell? Why are we tied up?" asked Dash frantic.

"Ah reckon it's that damn Starlight Glimmer, such a sore apple after what we did," exclaimed Applejack.

Twilight looked up trying to see but failed, why are we here she thought. A TV inside the room buzzed then showed Starlight Glimmer sitting in an office chair, smiling from ear to ear which made Dash get very pissed off but Twilight calmed her down with a gentle hoof.

"Hello fellow ponies especially you Twilight I'm so glad you all decided to join me in my little game, I promise that this is going to be a fun survival game," explained Starlight flashing an evil grin.

"Starlight you'd better hope I don't find you and shove my hoof so far up your ass you'll shit out your organs through your mouth," exclaimed Dash angrily.

Fluttershy had hid under Applejack who comforted the shy pegasus, none of them have ever seen Dash in this kind of anger even though she had a burning hatred of Starlight along with everypony else. Twilight tried to fly up to get a better look of their surroundings but like Rainbow earlier she was pulled down by the chains, she kept doing that but eventually gave up.

"Poor princess Twilight it's a shame you can't call for Celestia or Luna for help such a crying shame," said Starlight.

"What do you want Star?" asked Twilight who was kinda getting fed up with her constant bullshit.

"It's very simple really I want to play a survival game, a game that requires nerves of steel and no fear. Now on each one of your hooves is a fear bracelet that will react to how scared you get," explained Glimmer.

"Oh dear! These bracelets could use a bit more touch from a mare like me," said Rarity until Applejack slapped her on the back of her head.

"No time," said Applejack.

"Now if those bracelets turn red well you'll see...have fun," said Starlight as she released the chains.

Twilight's stomach dropped to a level anyone never seen before, Starlight was doing this as revenge for Twi embarrassing her so now it her turn to spread a little fear and probably some death in the process.

"Okay girls we need to be as fearless as possible or at least try," said Twilight shivering a bit.

That was better said than done considering Fluttershy was shaking like a leaf. Eventually Applejack calmed down the shy pony and agreed to be her partner, so no Twilight had to see where the hell they were and find a way out without going completely going insane...all according to Starlight's plan.

"So what now?" We'd better get moving before something else happens," said Rainbow Dash as she walked beside her friends.

They all walked about half a mile down the road, taking frequent stops to rest and use the bathroom even though their wasn't any public bathrooms where they were. Once every mile, Twilight would check the bracelets one by one and which made the others back up from Fluttershy.

"Please don't back away...please," said Shy until a vein started to pop out along with several blisters that spread everywhere.

"Fluttershy!" yelled Twilight.

It only got worse: The blisters turned into popping holes that spat out puss, her eyes rolled back until all they saw was pure white which made Rarity faint, Dash put her on her back then proceeded to run for dear life as if nothing else mattered. Twilight looked in fear and sorrow as she saw what used to be Fluttershy, she didn't want to hurt her but the alicorn princess had no choice so she stood her ground and charges at her, blasting her in the head hard that caused her brain to fall, eventually she fell on the ground. Twilight's horn lit up and out of nowhere she turned Fluttershy into a statue and she caught up with her friends.

"Twi please tell me that Shy is in a better place," said Applejack.

"Yea I used the stone statue spell on her after I splattered her brains all over the forest," said Twilight with a single tear in her eye.

Dash put a reassuring hoof on her friend as if to give her confidence in this dark time.

"Aw what a shame that poor Fluttershy, I actually though she would last longer but no pony can live forever," explained Starlight who communicated through the bracelets.

"Give me a reason not to kill you," said Dash enraged.

"Cause I'm in control of this game and if you want to survive I suggest you do as I say," responded Starlight with a devilish smile.

The mares knew they're wasn't any other way out of this so in a huff Rainbow Dash nodded to continue this crazy train.

"Now head to that cave, inside it is a key for one of the bracelets but make sure you choose the right one or they're going to be an explosion," explained Starlight.

Twilight stepped into the cave, dark as it was she lit it up with her horn being cautious as ever. The others stood outside even as Rarity woke up, Applejack explained to the white unicorn about what's been going on now, Rarity looked at her bracelet and the mere shock in her face told the whole story.

"Girls I got the key now-"

Twilight was cut off by an explosion that spread Rarity's intestines and other important organs all over the trees and the blood covered the other mares coats.

Applejack and Twilight let out a bloodcurdling scream while Rainbow fainted, all that was left was Rarity's hoof with the bracelet. After a whole hour of constant screaming Twilight sobbed hard along with Applejack but Dash was curled up in a ball rocking back and forth.

The insanity is about to begin.
