Maniac Cop: Equestrian Silence
Chapter 4
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTwilight and Shining arrived at the scene to see it taped off to prevent the onlookers from coming in, but they managed to get in quite easily since a few guard and police ponies let them in without a problem. What they saw made them gag. Blood was pouring from Lyra and Bon-Bon's throat, the wound looked like it cut straight through them.
"Not again!" Twilight said, "How did this happen?!"
"We're not sure, all we know is that the bodies were found by Ms. Derpy Hooves who came to see the bodies and no glimpse of the killer." A guard said
"This is starting to look like less of somepony trying to frame me to more like we have a serial killer on our hands." Twilight said
"Twily, don't freak out, but after seeing this I'm considering helping the police with this problem." Shining said
"ARE YOU CRAZY!?" Twilight said to Shining, "WHAT WOULD CADENCE SAY?! YOU HAVE A FOAL FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! THINK ABOUT THEM FIRST BEFORE THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING THIS DANGEROUS!"
"I know it's dangerous! But I can't just sit idly by while somepony's out killing innocents!"
"And just what do you think you can do that the guard and police can't!"
"He can help!"
The two then stopped fighting and looked to see Cadence.
"Honey?!"
"Cadence?!"
"What are you doing here?!" Shining asked
"I saw the commotion and asked Applejack to look over Flurry Heart while I checked up on this. But what do i find? You two arguing like a bunch of little foals." Cadence scolded, "Twilight I know you wanna protect your brother, but could you at least let him help out?! It's the least you can let him do after he just saved you."
Twilight then let out a long sigh.
"Alright. Shining, I want you to help the police in anyway you can." Twilight said to her brother
"I'll do my best." Shining replied
"Uh Scootaloo, remind me, WHY are we at the castle of the royal sisters?"
Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Applebloom, Silver Spoon, and Diamond Tiara stood outside the old castle of Celestia and Luna. The castle itself had a presence that spooked the crusaders to no end.
"I saw something weird walk on the bridge to the Everfee Forest! It looked like some kind of bipedal creature wearing a policepony's outfit!" Scootaloo said to Silver Spoon, "I followed it all the way to castle and returned to tell you guys about it!"
"Then why in the hay did ya drag us all the way down here!" Applebloom asked
"To show you guys that I wasn't joking! I mean, I don't know if my eyes were playing tricks on me or not, but it looked like the same creature we saw that statue of."
"THEN WHY IN THE-"
The others quickly shushed Diamond Tiara out of fear.
"Then why in the hay are weeven over here in the first place! We're gonna get killed!" Diamond whispered
"We don't know that!" Scootaloo said, "Come on you chickens lets go in!"
And without a second thought Scootaloo opened the door and headed in.
"Scootaloo come back!" The others shouted running in after her
Just then the door closed and locked behind them. Diamond tried to get the door to open and even tried to buck it down, only for nothing to happen.
"We're locked in!" he said in fear
Everyone then looked at Scootaloo in anger.
"What?" Scootaloo asked
Cordell was wandering through the halls of the castle of the two royal sisters. He memorized the hallways and traps by heart and soul, there wasn't a single room he didn't recognize.
Hmmmmm. That attack's probably got the police in a frenzy by now. I'm gonna have to be more careful about when I attack. But what I wanna know is why didn't those two freak out when they saw me. I mean, I'm a creature that's never been seen for over 1,000 years. Why wouldn't they freak out about me?
Suddenly the sound of a slamming door caught Cordell's attention.
What the?! Who the hell?!
"We're locked in!"
..... It's those kids.... What are they doing here?
"What?"
"YA'LL HAD TA FOLLOW THAT BIPEDAL CREATURE DIDN'T YA SCOOTS!"
?! WHAT?! I WAS FOLLOWED?! GOD DAMN IT I NEED TO KILL THEM NOW! Okay, calm down dude. You can handle this. They're just a bunch of children, and you are one of the most obscure slashers in history. You are Matt Cordell, THE MANIAC COP! And as for those foals? As decreed by Princess Celestia of Equestria, they have the right to remain silent.... forever.
The crusaders decided to split up to see if they could fins a way out quicker. Silver Spoon went with Diamond Tiara, Scootaloo went with Applebloom, and Sweetie Belle went solo.
"Diamond I'm scared, what if we run into Cordell?!" Silver Spoon said
"Don't be such a baby!" Diamond said, "Cordell's in concrete! He would've suffocated by now!"
"But the princesses said he was immortal!"
"Silver Spoon, do you honestly think anything will last forever?"
"Uhhhhhh."
"The princesses don't count."
"Darn."
"Hold it!" Diamond said holding out a hoof right in front of Silver spoon
"What is it?!"
"Do you smell that?"
"Yeah. Smells like a rotting corpse."
"It's coming from that room." Diamond said pointing to a partially open room
"I-I've seen enough! L-lets turn back!" Silver Spoon said
"No way." Diamond said heading towards the door
"W-wait for me!" Silver said catching up, "Damn it Diamond!"
The two then went inside the dark room, not even hearing the sound of a baton being twirled around behind them.
