She felt her heart shatter as a drop of blood hit her face. She turned around and suddenly wished she never did. The sight was awful. Sweetie hadn't moved quick enough and a couple of bones had impaled her chest. Her eyes welled up with tears.

"PONY? ARE YOU ALRIGHT? ISN'T THAT RED STUFF SUPPOSED TO STAY ON THE INSIDE OF YOU'RE-"

A small, pink heart floated out of the young ponies carcass.

"PONY? IS... IS THAT YOU'RE SOUL?" Her pain. Her sadness. The emptiness inside her chest because of the loss of a friend. It all was filled with anger. Pure and violent rage. She turned on the taller skeleton. Her head hurt. Her heart shattered. Her companion was dead. All of that was because of the being stood in front of her. That MONSTER!

"How could you?! You! You... You killed her! In cold blood! You murder! You MONSTER! How could you kill her? She was innocent! Innocent and tired! Recovering from the brink of death! And you... you killed her!" Her voice echoed down the river. It didn't take long before the inhabitants of the near town came to investigate.

"Oh dear Toby!" said the Innkeeper from earlier. Somewhere in the crowd a dog barked.

"Oh dear me, this wasn't supposed to happen!"

"Is that... a young child?"

"Whomever had the right to kill such innocence!"

"Oh no no no, this wasn't supposed to happen!" A white dog on all fours with a purple cat following approached Sweetie Belle's body.

"I agree Ann, a RESET would be useful, wouldn't it?"

"But how-?"

"They should ask Sans." The purple cat looked up at her as if she knew she was listening. The cat turned and left the dog looking over at her for a moment before following his feline friend.

"PONY, I DIDN'T MEAN-"

"Did you mean anything?! At all? This is what you wanted! A pony's soul right? This is how you get it! Not by asking! Or puzzles! It's a straight up bloody massacre! Now back off, I need to talk with your brother!"

"PONY, I-"

"Back off!" She spun around, acting on reflex. She bucked the skeleton, his armor doing nothing to protect him. She watched the HP drop to 1 as she walked away. Sparing a glance at Apple Bloom, she noticed her other companion being looked after by a young drake they had met. He had helped them carry Sweetie when she was unconscious. Now he and his mother watched Apple Bloom as if she would be in harms way.

"Sans! Where are you! I need to talk to you!"

"i'm here kid." She spun around. There he stood, the answer to her problems.

"Sans, Sweetie..."

"i heard. i also know what you want. to RESET, right? i'll help ya. all you need to do is focus."

"On what?"

"before all this murder. back before the clearing perhaps?" She nodded, focusing. She wasn't entirely sure WHAT she was doing but she was doing SOMETHING, so that was good. She felt a pull on her soul. She concentrated harder on the town, before the clearing. The clearing... How did Sans know about it. She turned her head to ask and found herself facing Sweetie's shocked face.

Wait...

There was something wrong with that sentence...

Wait...

"Sweetie!" She grabbed her friend, hugging her like if she hadn't seen her for ages.

"Sweetie!" echoed another voice to her right. It was of course Apple Bloom.

"But... But how?!" Sweetie exclaimed, pushing away from her friends and touching where the bones had penetrated her chest.

"I RESET. Dunno what it means though."

"You bent time and went back." A familiar voice said from behind her.

"You're that dog from earlier!" The dog barked. It appeared to be laughing.

"The name's Annoying Dog or Ann for short."

"Also known as Toby 'Radiation' Fox." The cat walked, smiling ear to ear.

"Who are you?" Sweetie asked, pointing at the intruder. "I doubt any of the readers know." The cat's eyes shrunk and her jaw dropped.

"Now I need to know why you know about that!"

"I dunno, shorta came to me... why?" Sweetie shrugged. The cat shook her head and Toby fell to the ground, rolling around and laughing his head off.

"So, who are you?"

"I won't tell till the readers figure it out!" The cat looked at something in the distance, focusing on a spot in the distance as if looking at someone.

"But they don't know abou-"

"Ah, yes." She smirked and her feline eyes flashed green for a split second. "Is that enough? Who am I dear readers?" With that she turned and ran, laughing teasingly all the way. " See ya Toby, I'm off to see Temmie!"

The 3 ponies turned at the dog, tilting their heads in confusion. Toby sighed, "She never knows when not to break the fourth wall." The dog then jumped, disappearing in thin air.

"What the BUCK just happened!" Apple Bloom shouted. What indeed did happen?

Author's Note

Space-time Shenanigans! Also I won't tell the cats name till someone guesses who she is. If no one ever guesses you'll find out in the final chapter.
