Scream to be Heard!

Twilight lay gasping and sobbing on the floor, blood gushing from the crater in her flank, paralyzed in fear. The monster above her simply stood, staring at her, with her bloodied cutie mark rolled up like a scroll in his purple, stained gauntlet. He was enjoying this, she thought. He was waiting for her to die. He wasnt doing anything to quicken her death, which meant he was torturing her. And he was still here, which meant he wanted something with her, instantly her mind drawed to one conclusion. He was going to mutilate her body, and do Celestia-knows-what to Rainbow Dash. Despite her heavy thinking, she was in intense pain, before she knew it however, her eyes closed, and she fell asleep.

Forever.

Bartlet let out a small chuckle as she died, this was going to be fun he thought. He dragged her to the side, leaving a wide trail of blood.He walked over to the cyan one, she had bruised her head somewhat on the table. He picked her up, dragging her up the wall. He held her up by the neck with one hand, and grabbed a wooden shard from the broken table, he slowly brought it up, and smashed it into her left hoof, suspending her in the air from the wall. He let go, letting her dangle from one hoof, and brought another shard into her right hoof, he stood back and waited for her to wake up.

Her eyes slowly drifted, but most her her vision was blocked in a haze of red blurriness. She slowly dragged her eyes across the room, the walls were relatively clean, but the floor was covered in blood, and then she realized she was suspended in the air. Snapping out of her daze, she quickly brought her vision to her left hoof, nailed into the wall with a bloody chunk of wood. She saw the same on the right hoof, then she saw the monster clearly for the first time. It was a tall statue thing that stood on two legs, easily dwarfing Celestia or a diamond dog. It's skin, or what she assumed was skin, was purple, and had a light pink ivory trim, it had a pair of hands instead of hoofs, it's fingers and palm covered in blood. On it's chest was a golden six pointed star, three of it's arms reaching around it's back. On it's pauldrons was a strange pink symbol she didn't realize, and the other pauldron was another six pointed star, but in a more condensed state with a red eye in the center. It's head was dominated by two miss-matched horns descending down it's light pink face, purposely missing the neon pink eyes so to not obstruct it's vision. What she saw next made stomach churn. The monster grabbed Twilight from the ground, her cutie-mark was cut off.

"It didnt have to be like this, you know. I could have raped you both." He said with a small chuckle, examining the mutilated corpse.

"I wonder what I could do with this? Hmm, oh yes that could work!" He yelled, grabbing the base of her neck and her chin. he slowly tore her head off, her spine, esophagus, and muscles snapping from the intense pressure. He let her beheaded body fall into a blood heap on the floor, and brought her head upwards, into the light.

"What a nice head, how do you think it will be on a pole, hmm?" He asked, still examining the head. When she didnt reply, he turned his head to look at her. She was dropping to the floor, her jaw wide open, a small amount of vomit dripping from it.

"Hmm, It'd be nice right above yours, I think!" After this statement, Rainbow Dash snapped out of her shock.

"No! Please no! NO!" She screamed as he advanced menacingly, purple blade clutched tightly in his hand. After a long moment, he quickly slashed through her neck, sparing her the pain. With both heads in his hands, he set them down on the floor, and searched the room for a pole, when he found none, he strolled out of the room, down the stairs and found himself in what looked like a library. Peering over the spines of nearby books, he picked out a history book, and read the first word and closed the book. He thought correct, these animals looked familiar, these ponies. He then searched this lower floor for a pole, when he found none he again went to search elsewhere. He crouched down and side-stepped through the small door, and he found himself in a vibrant, bright town. Looking around, he strolled along, trying to find a pole.

Ten Hours Later

Spike sat on Rarity's back as she was hauling a cart of gems into town, for the entire day they had hunted for gems and jewels. They no longer feared the diamond dogs, and this allowed them more frequent outings. Rarity was happy because she could make more dresses, and Spike was happy because he had an excuse to help her. As they came into town however, it looked deserted. There were no ponies in sight.

"I wondered where everypony went?" Spike inquired, ignorant of what would come.

"I wouldnt worry Spike." Rarity said with her usual cheerfulness, when they spotted Applejack in her stand.

"Hey, Applejack!" Spike yelled.

"Oh hey there sugarcubes, y'know where everypony went off to?" She asked.

"We wouldnt know, we just got back from gem hunting, are you closing up soon?" Rarity said.

"Ah sure ahm, lemme close up fer what it's worth an' we'l go to Twilight's together." Applejack said as she closed up.

"I can handle this Spike, go help Applejack close up." Rarity said, Spike climbing off her back and walking to Applejack's stand, helping her close up. She trotted away to her boutique, she went around back and opened the back door, unhitching the cart in her storeroom. She then trotted out, locking the door, and went back to Applejack's stand, all closed up.

"Alright y'all, lets go see what everypony's up ta."
