Tall, White, and Facelessby TheGamingBronyChapters1: Abandoned 2: Have a Heart3: Its All Fun And Games4: Things That Go Bump.1: Abandoned 1: Abandoned Celestia’s sun glew brightly above everypony in town. It was a ordinary day in Ponyville, all the ponies were in the streets attending to their needs and wants. Some ponies were in a hurry to be somewhere while others were just chatting with friends. Yet, near the edge of the Everfree Forest were three little fillies staring into the darkness of the forest. It was of course the Cutie Mark Crusaders Applebloom,Scootaloo,and Sweetie Belle. Each looked into the forest with unsettling eyes. Scootaloo shook her head and looked at the other two fillies. “You girls ready” She asked nervously. “Y-yeah l-lets get to it” Studdard Applebloom. Sweetie Belle just nodded as they entered the forest. The three fillies kept close to each other making their way through the dangerous forest even more difficult. Their hoofsteps were slow but they managed to get to their destination. In front of them was a old abandoned house. Vines and plants grew along the side of the stone walls and the roof had many holes in it. The home looked like it had been deserted for quite awhile. Scootaloo detached herself from the rest of the group. “ Today we get are cutie marks in investigation” Exclaimed Scootaloo. With that Scootaloo ran into the house. “ Scootaloo wait for us” Applebloom yelled to her friend, leaving a scared stiff Sweetie Belle all alone. “ Appleblo-” Sweetie Belle was cut off by a rustling in a nearby shrub. She backed away from it before running towards the run down house. The house wasn't any better on the inside. Cobwebs covered the corners of the house and dust had settled on everything else. “Girls” yelled Sweetie Belle. No response Sweetie Belle looked at the stairs. The stairs looked sturdy enough to hold a filly like her but not a full grown pony like Rarity and or Applejack. Sweetie Belle slowly inched her way to the stairs and put her front hoof on it. She slowly applied pressure to the step,It let out a long and quite creaking noise that unnerved Sweetie Belle but held itself up. She began to climb up the stairs, testing each of them on the way up. she was near the top step when she came face to face with Scootaloo. “BOO” Yelled Scootaloo. The white unicorn screamed as she began to fall backwards. Before she could fall, Scootaloo grabbed her flailing hoof. “ Heh heh ….. sorry” Scootaloo said embarrassedly. Sweetie Belle just scowled at her. “ Hey ya girls, come an check this out” Applebloom yelled from a room down the hall. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle walked over to the room. The room was dirty and dusty like the rest of the house. There was a torn up bed in one of the corners and a makeup table with its mirror broken into tiny little bits. Applebloom was over in the corner looking at something on the wall. Scootaloo walked over to Applebloom while Sweetie Belle was fixated on a picture frame. The picture was of a stallion,a mare,and a filly. the filly had a light green coat with a light blue mane and tail. her eyes were also light blue. “ Sweetie Belle, Come check this out.” said Scootaloo. Sweetie Belle looked over at her two friends and left to join them. Sweetie Belle looked at the wall. On it was some sort of carving. It looked like a circle with a “X” through it. She put her hoof against the stone. The stone was strangely warm like somepony had been here recently. “ Do you girls know the legend of this house” asked Scootaloo with a evil grin on her face. The other two fillies looked at her with a look of fear and confusion. “N-no wh-what about it?” asked Sweetie Belle. Scootaloo looked at her. “ They say a monster lurks in the shadows of this house. I’ve heard that the family that use to live here was attacked by this monster and before the police could even reach the front door, they were gone. Never to be heard from again” Scootaloo yelled the last word, scaring both fillies. Scootaloo laughed. Just then they heard hoofsteps coming from down the hall. “Did you hear that?” asked a now scared Scootaloo. The three fillies huddled together as the hoofsteps started to get louder and closer. The hoofsteps stopped abruptly and the entrance of the room. Sweetie Belle nudged her two friends and made a motion to the bed. The three fillies quietly as possible slid under the bed just in time. The door slowly creaked open, The three fillies held their breaths. For the longest time, nothing had happened. After what seemed like hours,Scootaloo silently crawled out from under the bed. She inched her way to the door and looked into the hallway. She looked at her friends. “There's nothing out he-” She was stopped by a black tentacle that wrapped around her foreleg and dragged her into the hallway, closing the door behind her. The other two fillies leapt out from under the bed in a panic and sprinted to the door. Applebloom swung the door open, there was nothing in the hallway. No sign of Scootaloo, No sign of what abducted her, there was absolutely nothing. “ SCOOTALOO” yelled Applebloom. No response. “ SCOOTALOO” Applebloom yelled again. Again no response. Tears began to form on the sides of Applebloom’s face. Sweetie Belle grabbed Applebloom and began to run towards the stairs. She ran out the front door with Applebloom still behind her sobbing silently. Sweetie Belle suddenly looked back at the house. In the door way was a very tall and skinny pony that wore a black suit and a blood red tie. What Sweetie Belle found more horrifying was the creature's face or the lack of his face. He had no eyes, no nose, no mouth. Sweetie Belle watched as it tilted its head slightly before disappearing into the house. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom kept running and didn't stop till there were in the middle of Ponyville where they collapsed and sobbed together silently. . . . Author's Note: ‘Ello Everypony!

They ran to the front desk where Nurse Redheart stood. “ Applejack, Rarity slow down and calm down. There this way” Said the nurse pointing over to a hallway. “ Poor fillies have been scared stiff all day” Said Nurse Redheart as they were continuing down the long corridor. The nurse was escorting Applejack and Rarity to Sweetie Belle’s and Applebloom’s room. Applejack looked at Rarity with a face of dread and concern. “We looked them over and they didn't seem to be in any sort of physical pain, But were not sure their mental state is the same. They keep yelling stuff like “It took her” and “ It’s Face” all the time they were here” Nurse Redheart continued. She looked at Applejack. “ By the way, Do you know somepony named “Scootaloo” by any chance?” “ Yeah, thats one their best friends” Applejack told Redheart. The nurse stopped at the door. “ Applejack,Rarity, I advise you two get help for those fillies in their because what ever they saw , it messed them up pretty badly ” and with that Nurse Redheart left the two mares. Rarity opened the door. It was not a pretty sight. Applebloom was in the corner rocking back and forth mumbling something under her breath. Her eyes were huge and red from tears. Her mane was messy and her bow was undone and lying next to her. Sweetie Belle was on the complete opposite side of the room with papers scattered all around her. She was quickly scribbling on a piece of paper. Rarity bent over and looked at one, It was a picture of a crudely drawn pony with no facial features. Another picture was of many circles with “x’s” through them. Applejack ran over to Applebloom. “ Applebloom, all ya alright? Are ya hurt at all? APPLEBLOOM” Applebloom seemed to not even see Applejack frantically move a hoof in front of her eyes. She just kept rocking back and forth mumbling. Applejack sat there with tears in her eyes as she listened to her. “ itslookingforus.weneedtohide.ithasherandwantsus.itwantstokillus.” Applebloom’s eyes darted to random places of the room and all Applejack could do was watch her sister slip into insanity. “ Sweetie Belle? why were you three in the Everfree Forest?” asked Rarity in a gentle tone. Sweetie Belle looked at Rarity then to the floor. “ We were g-gonna get are c-cutie marks in In-investigation. Scootaloo said that there was a house in the Everfree forest that h-had been aba-abandoned for years and that we should check it out” said Sweetie Belle. She had stopped coloring to look at Rarity. Applejack joined Rarity. “ Wheres Scootaloo then dear?” Asked Rarity. Sweetie Belle let out a whimper. “ W-we were in the house and she heard hoofsteps coming towards us so we hid under the bed. After awhile they stopped so Scootaloo went to go check and when she opened the d-door-” Sweetie Belle lowered her head and cried softly. She was unable to say what happened next. Her head suddenly darted upward. “ IT WAS HORRIBLY RARITY! IT DIDN'T HAVE A FACE! IT HAS SCOOTALOO WE NEED TO HELP HER PLEASE.” Rarity hugged Sweetie Belle tightly and stroked her mane as she cried into her coat. “ Its alright dear. You're safe now okay? We’ll find her and bring her back. Everything is going to be alright.” ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ It was near midnight as Nurse Redheart was walking home. the streets were barely lit from Lunas moon up in the sky. No matter what she did, Nurse Redheart couldn't stop thinking about Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. What did those fillies see? I haven't seen any pony shaken up like they were. She thought to herself. Redheart heard a snapping sound behind her and she whirled around. Nothing. She turned back around and started to walk again at a faster pace though.for a second she thought she could hear hoofsteps behind her as she turned around again. Nothing. Redheart stood there for the longest time observing all round. Without warning she began to feel nauseous. She felt like she was going to vomit. An unbearable ringing sound was starting to form in her ears. she covered them but the ringing only amplified. She was able to look forward and when she did she saw a horrid sight. A couple of yards in front of her stood a severely pale and tall pony. It seemed to be wearing a suit with a red tie but there was no way it was normal, there was no way.Redheart let out a gasp when she saw how long its limbs were. Redheart without hesitation turned and ran. Who was that?!?! NO- No WHAT was that! what do I do? I need to hide and collect myself. Nurse redheart thought to herself. She took refuge behind a tree. she was hyperventilating looking around her to look for this creature. she sat down. Her chest ached from lack of air flow “ I- I- I lost it” she said in between a gasp of air. Just then two of the trees branches grabbed her and she let out a scream, But was cut off by one of the branches wrapping around her mouth. She was lifted up to the pale white face of the creature. she gasped again to see it had no eyes or mouth or anything. It just stared at her and tilted its head from side to side as if observing her. One of its tentacles wrapped around the nurses throat and began to tighten. Now her chest really acked as Air started to leave her body. she tried to grab and pull the tentacle away from her but was unable to and with a swift motion, A loud SNAP was heard and seemed to echo through the streets of the town. Redhearts body went limp and her eyes glazed over. The creature continued to stare at the now dead Nurse Redheart. The Creature looked at the saddle bag she was carrying and observed the name tag on it. It read “ Nurse Redheart, Ponyville Care Center” The creature looked towards the hospital before disappearing into the the night with Nurse Redheart over one shoulder and the name tag in the other hand. 3: Its All Fun And GamesThe hospital was still, everything seemed to be almost as still as a painting on a wall. Everything lacked color, a dull grey was the only color noticeable. A single mare trotted through the halls of the hospital. She constantly looked behind her down the long corridors. Her face wore signs of fear and sadness. Something fell in the distance and echoed through the halls, making the mare jump. she looked down a particular hallway that was darker than the rest. Her eyes narrowed as she spoke. “ H-Hello?” she asked. No response She began to walk closer into the darkened corridor. Each hoofstep making it’s own little echo through the halls. “ B-Berry is that you?” she asked in a quivering voice. Again silence. “ Seriously stop it, you're scaring me” exclaimed the mare as she flicked her flashlight on. In the light of the flashlight was a corpse of a light green unicorn resting in a wheelchair. Blood was trickling from its eye sockets and multiple stab wounds in her abdomen area. The mare was about to let out a scream when she was grabbed from behind and came face to face with GhostSnout. “ Man, this movie is complete shit” said a dark violet nurse to her lime green companion. “ Well it managed to scare the piss out of me” said the lime green nurse as she grabbed popcorn from a bowl. “ Yeah? Well your easy to scare Jazz” replied the violet mare before getting up from behind a desk. “ I’m going to the vending machines, want anything?” “ Water please” replied Jazz. The violet mare nodded before grabbing something from a shelf and walking towards the vending machines. Jazz looked at the TV playing in front of her. It showed the mare from before sprinting out of the hospital covered in blood.She turned around to see GhostSnout standing in the doorway of the hospital. Jazz shook her head. “ Totally fake” She sighed and looked at her watch. It read 11:24. As she continued to look at it, the lamp in front of her flickered before turning back on as did the lights. Damn storm has been making the lights go all weird. God the weather team is completely useless. She shook her head. “ Excuse me, Nurse Fatass, I require water ASAP!” Mocked Jazz to her violet friend. No Response. “ Oh No, I hope she not dead” said Jazz sarcastically. “ Oh what ever should I do?” Jazz put her hoof up to her head, pretending to act scared. She chuckled a bit and listened. Dead Silence. She sighed and got up. She trotted down the long corridor towards the vending machines. Halfway through the corridor, the lights shut off suddenly. Jazz let out a yelp as she looked around worriedly. “ Ok Wasp, you got me now lets go, are shift is almost over” Jazz said nervously. Nothing. Jazz’s only light source was the eerie glow of the vending machines at the end of the hall. She slowly made her way through the hallway, at one point pulling out her phone for extra light. She was getting a bit irritated and scared at the silence lingering in the hospital. She finally made it to the vending machines. She looked down the corridors going left and right from the machines. Darkness. Jazz turned around to the corridor she came from. Nothing. Jazz walked to her side only to step in something. Again she let out a yelp and jumped backwards and looked at her hoof. “ I can't see what it is” Jazz said to herself. Gee, Well no shit! Its only pitch black you dumbass. Jazz thought to herself. She whipped out her handy dandy phone and clicked a button, making it turn on. She brought the phone to her hoof and let out a gasp. At the bottom of her hoof was a dark red substance. Blood. She looked where she stepped and found (to her horror) a puddle of the same dark red blood on her hoof. Jazz backed away slowly and hit something behind her. Without warning, she was grabbed. There was no sound ever that could compete with the sound that Nurse Jazz made as she was grabbed by the mystery thing behind her. She was so loud that it could make Vinyl Scratch want to cover her ears in pure pain. Jazz was twirled around and came face to face with a familiar violet mare with the biggest grin on her face and a bottle of ketchup. The mare fell over in a heap of laughter while Jazz stood there with the most reddest face ever whether from embarrassment or rage. “ Y-y-you should have s-seen your f-f-face” Laughed Wasp between gasp for air. “ And t-that s-scream was j-just icing on the c-c-cake” Jazz lowered her head and gathered herself together before looking up again. There standing behind the laughing pony was a extremely large and skinny pony wearing a black suit starring at her. With one swift movement it grabbed Wasp’s mane, brought her up towards its face, and twisted violently. The laughed was quickly silenced. Jazz quickly turned and ran down the black hallway. She was running as fast as she ever ran before. She turned to look behind her. Nothing. She didn't slow down but kept her speed as she reared a corner only to hit a medical cart. As she hit the floor, a sharp pain sliced through her foreleg as she quickly grasped it. A scalpel from the medical cart had stabbed into her foreleg. Jazz laid there and wept silently until the black suited creature scooped her up with a black tential protruding from its back. Jazz struggled to get free, but the vise like grip on the tentacle was too much for her. Jazz froze upon seeing its lack of face. It seemed to be staring at her, almost piercing right through her with its gaze. “ w-what the fuck are you?” Jazz stumbled still crying. The monster only tilted its head before ripping Jazz’s arm off and letting her hit the floor. She tried to crawl away but was instantly stopped when Slendermane stabbed through her skull with a tentacle.The monster ( with his head still tilted) stared at the corpse in front of him, almost admiring what he had done. It then quickly looked over at a door down at the other end of the hallway and teleported to it. It ran its hoof over the text on the door that read..... Room 107 Applebloom / Sweetie Belle *~*~* Applebloom lay awake in her bed. He mind still playing images in her head of her friend getting dragged out into the hallway. The horror on her face before the door slammed shut behind her. Applebloom looked around her hospital room. Sweetie Belle was asleep in her bed. Applejack was snoring in the corner with her hat over her eyes. A few minutes ago Applebloom thought she heard screams out in the hall but she just decided it was in her head. Applebloom got out of her bed and went to the door. She opened the door and peered out into the hall. It was extremely dark except the light of the moon shinning through the window. Applebloom made her way through the halls. She didn't know where she was going but she knew she just wanted to think. What did i see? What ever it was......It isn't normal. It took Scootaloo and is now looking for me and Sweetie Belle. Judging by Belle’s pictures, it was a tall and really skinny. I want to say it was a pony but there is no way that it was normal, there was NO WAY. Applebloom looked up suddenly as a pony ran around a corner and collided with a medical cart. the earth pony laid there motionless as Applebloom ran to a nearby medical closet. For the longest time Applebloom just sat there and stared at the mare weeping in the hall. Applebloom went to go help the mare but something grabbed her. Applebloom watched in horror as the mare was picked up by a very familiar black tentacle. He was here. Apple covered her mouth preventing her from screaming as the creature ripped Jazz’s arm off. Applebloom could feel tears start to form in the corners of her eyes. The creature then threw the mare down. The mare tried so desperately to get away. The mare looked up and saw the teary face of Applebloom before the black tentacle propelled through her head and the mare’s body went limp. Applebloom looked up at the creature who head was tilted to its side as it was staring at the now dead mare. The creature then looked up and by a blink of an eye, he was gone. Applebloom’s eyes darted around to find it and found it in a very bad place.......Right outside of her room. Aaand massive cliffhanger to leave you with :3. hope you enjoyed it and sorry it took awhile making it but i’m back from a trip so the next chapter will be out sooner than this one. 4: Things That Go Bump.Well, look who took their sweet time with this chapter! Sorry for the wait but i have been extremely busy lately with some stuff but im back. Hope you enjoy the chapter :D ~*~*~ Applejack was happily prancing around the farm, Mind free and without a care in the world. She looked out to her orchard. Celestia’s sun seemed to dance in the sky as the light beamed off her many shiny, red, crisp apples. She smiled at the sight and let out a loving sigh. She looked at the barn. The barn seemed to be brand new looking. Applejack made a surprised chuckle. “ Well would ya look at that” She said to no pony particular. She raised her hoof and brought her hat off her head. She looked towards the house. The house seemed to look brand new as well as Granny Smith sat on the front porch. Granny Smith looked over at Applejack and smiled warmly as Applejack watched her do something she didn't expect. Granny Smith stood up on her own, Without the use of a cane or even a grunt. Usually it was a chore for Granny to stand up on her own let alone without a cane. yet there she is, standing with ease without a care in the world. “How in tarnation” Was all Applejack could say. She looked at the orchard again. Out in the field Applejack could see three figures playing happily in the sun. Even at the distance she was at she could still hear their giggles and laughter. It was her little sister playing with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. They seemed to be playing some sort of game. From what Applejack saw it was probably tag. What seemed weird was that Scootaloo wasn't participating. Applejack walked up to the fillies playing. “ Hey’a Partner, why aren’t you playing?” Applejack said to Scootaloo. Scootaloo looked at Applejack with a warm smile. “ Oh cause I can't” “ Why not?” “ Well cause im dead featherbrain” Applejack looked at Scootaloo with a look of confusion. Something wasn't right, It was almost like the color from the world had turned to a darker version of what it once was. Applejack looked around. The once shiny,sweet, red apples was now replaced with rotted, sickening ones. The once blue, bright sky was now a death grey. Celestias Sun was now Lunas fearsome moon. Applejack looked back at Scootaloo or where she use to be. Instead of Scootaloo, there was now a tombstone. She looked at her sister. Tombstone. She looked at Sweetie Belle. Tombstone. “ This isn't happening. BIG MAC! WHERE IN SAMS HELL ARE YA?” Yelled Applejack. Applejack was hyperventilating. She ran towards the house, running past the disgusting fruit which her life was based around. She felt helpless, Running past the same tree over and over again. A branch snapped from a tree and landed on AppleJacks head. Applejacks eyes rolled to the back of her head as she was knocked unconscious. Applejack laid there, face down for the longest time. The feeling of pain was seeping through her head down through her whole body. She slowly lifted her head, her vision still reeling from the impact of the branch. She brought a hoof to her head and felt a wetness on the top of her head. Blood. As her eyesight began to come back she could tell that she wasn't on the farm anymore. She was in a Graveyard. She slowly rose to her hooves. She staggered forward before falling again, this time in front of a tombstone. She looked at the writing on it. Big Macintosh A Stallion Of Few Words. “no...” Applejack eyes began to water. This was too much. She backed away from the tombstone, only to hit another. This one held the name “Granny Smith”. She backed into another one.This one held no name, just a blank surface and a open hole just waiting for the next pony to be thrown in. Applejack began to stumble and faint. As she fell over she began to see something rise out of the grave.Upon seeing the creatures face, she knew exactly who it was. “You” was all Applejack was able to say before darkness consumed her mind and rendered her unconscious. ~*~*~ Applejacks eyes shot open. She breathed heavily as sweat dripped off her face. She wiped her forehead with her stenson in her hoof and put it back on its rightful place upon her head. She slowly started to calm her breathing down and steady her heart beat so it wasn't jumping out of her chest. *CREEEEEEEAK* Applejacks head whipped to the door to see her sister’s head popping out of the opening. Applejack sigh in relief as she looked at her sister. “ What in sams hay are ya'll doin up Applebloom?” Applebloom let out a yelp before looking at Applejack, also letting out a relieved sigh. “ Applejack, Is he in there? can you see him?” Applejack hesitated for a minute before answering. “ Who?” Applejack saw something in the corner of her eye move.It was subtle movement, but noticable. It was in the corner of the room, hiding in the shadows right next to Sweetie Belle’s bed. Without hesitation Applejack flicked on the lights. There was only a flash of light before the bulb exploded, but in that very short glimpse of light Applejack saw a pony with a suit in the corner staring at Sweetie. Applejack let out a scream which caused Applebloom to yell as well. Regaining her composure, Applejack ran towards the Slendermane but was collided into first. Applejack flew across the room, colliding with the wall behind her. She stumbled up to her hooves and with the rest of her might left, she turned and gave a powerful and heavy buck. Connecting to what she assumed Slendermane. “Applebloom, get a light or somethin. lets get a look at this here Slender fella” Applebloom ran out of the doorway and returned with a flashlight. She handed it to Applejack who turned it on and pointed it at where the Slendermane was lying. Slendermane was not lying against the wall. Yet in his place laid a small filly, the filly’s mane was a mess of purple and its coat was a pale orange, However the filly’s face was covered with a mask, Protecting its obvious identity.
1: Abandoned 1: Abandoned Celestia’s sun glew brightly above everypony in town. It was a ordinary day in Ponyville, all the ponies were in the streets attending to their needs and wants. Some ponies were in a hurry to be somewhere while others were just chatting with friends. Yet, near the edge of the Everfree Forest were three little fillies staring into the darkness of the forest. It was of course the Cutie Mark Crusaders Applebloom,Scootaloo,and Sweetie Belle. Each looked into the forest with unsettling eyes. Scootaloo shook her head and looked at the other two fillies. “You girls ready” She asked nervously. “Y-yeah l-lets get to it” Studdard Applebloom. Sweetie Belle just nodded as they entered the forest. The three fillies kept close to each other making their way through the dangerous forest even more difficult. Their hoofsteps were slow but they managed to get to their destination. In front of them was a old abandoned house. Vines and plants grew along the side of the stone walls and the roof had many holes in it. The home looked like it had been deserted for quite awhile. Scootaloo detached herself from the rest of the group. “ Today we get are cutie marks in investigation” Exclaimed Scootaloo. With that Scootaloo ran into the house. “ Scootaloo wait for us” Applebloom yelled to her friend, leaving a scared stiff Sweetie Belle all alone. “ Appleblo-” Sweetie Belle was cut off by a rustling in a nearby shrub.

The stairs looked sturdy enough to hold a filly like her but not a full grown pony like Rarity and or Applejack. Sweetie Belle slowly inched her way to the stairs and put her front hoof on it. She slowly applied pressure to the step,It let out a long and quite creaking noise that unnerved Sweetie Belle but held itself up. She began to climb up the stairs, testing each of them on the way up. she was near the top step when she came face to face with Scootaloo. “BOO” Yelled Scootaloo. The white unicorn screamed as she began to fall backwards. Before she could fall, Scootaloo grabbed her flailing hoof. “ Heh heh ….. sorry” Scootaloo said embarrassedly. Sweetie Belle just scowled at her. “ Hey ya girls, come an check this out” Applebloom yelled from a room down the hall. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle walked over to the room. The room was dirty and dusty like the rest of the house. There was a torn up bed in one of the corners and a makeup table with its mirror broken into tiny little bits. Applebloom was over in the corner looking at something on the wall. Scootaloo walked over to Applebloom while Sweetie Belle was fixated on a picture frame. The picture was of a stallion,a mare,and a filly. the filly had a light green coat with a light blue mane and tail. her eyes were also light blue. “ Sweetie Belle, Come check this out.” said Scootaloo. Sweetie Belle looked over at her two friends and left to join them. Sweetie Belle looked at the wall. On it was some sort of carving. It looked like a circle with a “X” through it.

No sign of Scootaloo, No sign of what abducted her, there was absolutely nothing. “ SCOOTALOO” yelled Applebloom. No response. “ SCOOTALOO” Applebloom yelled again. Again no response.

2: Have a HeartApplejack and Rarity frantically ran through the door of the hospital. They ran to the front desk where Nurse Redheart stood. “ Applejack, Rarity slow down and calm down. There this way” Said the nurse pointing over to a hallway. “ Poor fillies have been scared stiff all day” Said Nurse Redheart as they were continuing down the long corridor. The nurse was escorting Applejack and Rarity to Sweetie Belle’s and Applebloom’s room. Applejack looked at Rarity with a face of dread and concern. “We looked them over and they didn't seem to be in any sort of physical pain, But were not sure their mental state is the same. They keep yelling stuff like “It took her” and “ It’s Face” all the time they were here” Nurse Redheart continued. She looked at Applejack. “ By the way, Do you know somepony named “Scootaloo” by any chance?” “ Yeah, thats one their best friends” Applejack told Redheart. The nurse stopped at the door. “ Applejack,Rarity, I advise you two get help for those fillies in their because what ever they saw , it messed them up pretty badly ” and with that Nurse Redheart left the two mares. Rarity opened the door. It was not a pretty sight. Applebloom was in the corner rocking back and forth mumbling something under her breath. Her eyes were huge and red from tears. Her mane was messy and her bow was undone and lying next to her. Sweetie Belle was on the complete opposite side of the room with papers scattered all around her. She was quickly scribbling on a piece of paper. Rarity bent over and looked at one, It was a picture of a crudely drawn pony with no facial features. Another picture was of many circles with “x’s” through them. Applejack ran over to Applebloom. “ Applebloom, all ya alright? Are ya hurt at all? APPLEBLOOM” Applebloom seemed to not even see Applejack frantically move a hoof in front of her eyes. She just kept rocking back and forth mumbling. Applejack sat there with tears in her eyes as she listened to her. “ itslookingforus.weneedtohide.ithasherandwantsus.itwantstokillus.” Applebloom’s eyes darted to random places of the room and all Applejack could do was watch her sister slip into insanity. “ Sweetie Belle? why were you three in the Everfree Forest?” asked Rarity in a gentle tone. Sweetie Belle looked at Rarity then to the floor. “ We were g-gonna get are c-cutie marks in In-investigation. Scootaloo said that there was a house in the Everfree forest that h-had been aba-abandoned for years and that we should check it out” said Sweetie Belle. She had stopped coloring to look at Rarity. Applejack joined Rarity. “ Wheres Scootaloo then dear?” Asked Rarity. Sweetie Belle let out a whimper. “ W-we were in the house and she heard hoofsteps coming towards us so we hid under the bed. After awhile they stopped so Scootaloo went to go check and when she opened the d-door-” Sweetie Belle lowered her head and cried softly. She was unable to say what happened next. Her head suddenly darted upward. “ IT WAS HORRIBLY RARITY! IT DIDN'T HAVE A FACE! IT HAS SCOOTALOO WE NEED TO HELP HER PLEASE.” Rarity hugged Sweetie Belle tightly and stroked her mane as she cried into her coat. “ Its alright dear. You're safe now okay? We’ll find her and bring her back. Everything is going to be alright.” ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ It was near midnight as Nurse Redheart was walking home. the streets were barely lit from Lunas moon up in the sky. No matter what she did, Nurse Redheart couldn't stop thinking about Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. What did those fillies see? I haven't seen any pony shaken up like they were. She thought to herself. Redheart heard a snapping sound behind her and she whirled around. Nothing. She turned back around and started to walk again at a faster pace though.for a second she thought she could hear hoofsteps behind her as she turned around again. Nothing. Redheart stood there for the longest time observing all round. Without warning she began to feel nauseous. She felt like she was going to vomit. An unbearable ringing sound was starting to form in her ears. she covered them but the ringing only amplified. She was able to look forward and when she did she saw a horrid sight. A couple of yards in front of her stood a severely pale and tall pony. It seemed to be wearing a suit with a red tie but there was no way it was normal, there was no way.Redheart let out a gasp when she saw how long its limbs were. Redheart without hesitation turned and ran. Who was that?!?! NO- No WHAT was that! what do I do? I need to hide and collect myself. Nurse redheart thought to herself. She took refuge behind a tree. she was hyperventilating looking around her to look for this creature. she sat down. Her chest ached from lack of air flow “ I- I- I lost it” she said in between a gasp of air. Just then two of the trees branches grabbed her and she let out a scream, But was cut off by one of the branches wrapping around her mouth. She was lifted up to the pale white face of the creature. she gasped again to see it had no eyes or mouth or anything. It just stared at her and tilted its head from side to side as if observing her. One of its tentacles wrapped around the nurses throat and began to tighten. Now her chest really acked as Air started to leave her body. she tried to grab and pull the tentacle away from her but was unable to and with a swift motion, A loud SNAP was heard and seemed to echo through the streets of the town. Redhearts body went limp and her eyes glazed over. The creature continued to stare at the now dead Nurse Redheart. The Creature looked at the saddle bag she was carrying and observed the name tag on it. It read “ Nurse Redheart, Ponyville Care Center” The creature looked towards the hospital before disappearing into the the night with Nurse Redheart over one shoulder and the name tag in the other hand.
3: Its All Fun And GamesThe hospital was still, everything seemed to be almost as still as a painting on a wall. Everything lacked color, a dull grey was the only color noticeable. A single mare trotted through the halls of the hospital. She constantly looked behind her down the long corridors. Her face wore signs of fear and sadness. Something fell in the distance and echoed through the halls, making the mare jump. she looked down a particular hallway that was darker than the rest. Her eyes narrowed as she spoke. “ H-Hello?” she asked. No response She began to walk closer into the darkened corridor. Each hoofstep making it’s own little echo through the halls. “ B-Berry is that you?” she asked in a quivering voice. Again silence. “ Seriously stop it, you're scaring me” exclaimed the mare as she flicked her flashlight on. In the light of the flashlight was a corpse of a light green unicorn resting in a wheelchair. Blood was trickling from its eye sockets and multiple stab wounds in her abdomen area. The mare was about to let out a scream when she was grabbed from behind and came face to face with GhostSnout. “ Man, this movie is complete shit” said a dark violet nurse to her lime green companion. “ Well it managed to scare the piss out of me” said the lime green nurse as she grabbed popcorn from a bowl. “ Yeah? Well your easy to scare Jazz” replied the violet mare before getting up from behind a desk. “ I’m going to the vending machines, want anything?” “ Water please” replied Jazz. The violet mare nodded before grabbing something from a shelf and walking towards the vending machines. Jazz looked at the TV playing in front of her. It showed the mare from before sprinting out of the hospital covered in blood.She turned around to see GhostSnout standing in the doorway of the hospital. Jazz shook her head. “ Totally fake” She sighed and looked at her watch. It read 11:24. As she continued to look at it, the lamp in front of her flickered before turning back on as did the lights. Damn storm has been making the lights go all weird. God the weather team is completely useless. She shook her head. “ Excuse me, Nurse Fatass, I require water ASAP!” Mocked Jazz to her violet friend. No Response. “ Oh No, I hope she not dead” said Jazz sarcastically. “ Oh what ever should I do?” Jazz put her hoof up to her head, pretending to act scared. She chuckled a bit and listened. Dead Silence. She sighed and got up. She trotted down the long corridor towards the vending machines. Halfway through the corridor, the lights shut off suddenly. Jazz let out a yelp as she looked around worriedly. “ Ok Wasp, you got me now lets go, are shift is almost over” Jazz said nervously. Nothing. Jazz’s only light source was the eerie glow of the vending machines at the end of the hall. She slowly made her way through the hallway, at one point pulling out her phone for extra light. She was getting a bit irritated and scared at the silence lingering in the hospital. She finally made it to the vending machines. She looked down the corridors going left and right from the machines. Darkness. Jazz turned around to the corridor she came from. Nothing. Jazz walked to her side only to step in something. Again she let out a yelp and jumped backwards and looked at her hoof. “ I can't see what it is” Jazz said to herself. Gee, Well no shit! Its only pitch black you dumbass. Jazz thought to herself. She whipped out her handy dandy phone and clicked a button, making it turn on. She brought the phone to her hoof and let out a gasp. At the bottom of her hoof was a dark red substance. Blood. She looked where she stepped and found (to her horror) a puddle of the same dark red blood on her hoof. Jazz backed away slowly and hit something behind her. Without warning, she was grabbed. There was no sound ever that could compete with the sound that Nurse Jazz made as she was grabbed by the mystery thing behind her. She was so loud that it could make Vinyl Scratch want to cover her ears in pure pain. Jazz was twirled around and came face to face with a familiar violet mare with the biggest grin on her face and a bottle of ketchup. The mare fell over in a heap of laughter while Jazz stood there with the most reddest face ever whether from embarrassment or rage. “ Y-y-you should have s-seen your f-f-face” Laughed Wasp between gasp for air. “ And t-that s-scream was j-just icing on the c-c-cake” Jazz lowered her head and gathered herself together before looking up again. There standing behind the laughing pony was a extremely large and skinny pony wearing a black suit starring at her. With one swift movement it grabbed Wasp’s mane, brought her up towards its face, and twisted violently. The laughed was quickly silenced. Jazz quickly turned and ran down the black hallway. She was running as fast as she ever ran before. She turned to look behind her. Nothing. She didn't slow down but kept her speed as she reared a corner only to hit a medical cart. As she hit the floor, a sharp pain sliced through her foreleg as she quickly grasped it. A scalpel from the medical cart had stabbed into her foreleg. Jazz laid there and wept silently until the black suited creature scooped her up with a black tential protruding from its back. Jazz struggled to get free, but the vise like grip on the tentacle was too much for her. Jazz froze upon seeing its lack of face. It seemed to be staring at her, almost piercing right through her with its gaze. “ w-what the fuck are you?” Jazz stumbled still crying. The monster only tilted its head before ripping Jazz’s arm off and letting her hit the floor. She tried to crawl away but was instantly stopped when Slendermane stabbed through her skull with a tentacle.The monster ( with his head still tilted) stared at the corpse in front of him, almost admiring what he had done. It then quickly looked over at a door down at the other end of the hallway and teleported to it. It ran its hoof over the text on the door that read..... Room 107 Applebloom / Sweetie Belle *~*~* Applebloom lay awake in her bed. He mind still playing images in her head of her friend getting dragged out into the hallway. The horror on her face before the door slammed shut behind her. Applebloom looked around her hospital room. Sweetie Belle was asleep in her bed. Applejack was snoring in the corner with her hat over her eyes. A few minutes ago Applebloom thought she heard screams out in the hall but she just decided it was in her head. Applebloom got out of her bed and went to the door. She opened the door and peered out into the hall. It was extremely dark except the light of the moon shinning through the window. Applebloom made her way through the halls. She didn't know where she was going but she knew she just wanted to think. What did i see? What ever it was......It isn't normal. It took Scootaloo and is now looking for me and Sweetie Belle. Judging by Belle’s pictures, it was a tall and really skinny. I want to say it was a pony but there is no way that it was normal, there was NO WAY. Applebloom looked up suddenly as a pony ran around a corner and collided with a medical cart. the earth pony laid there motionless as Applebloom ran to a nearby medical closet. For the longest time Applebloom just sat there and stared at the mare weeping in the hall. Applebloom went to go help the mare but something grabbed her. Applebloom watched in horror as the mare was picked up by a very familiar black tentacle. He was here. Apple covered her mouth preventing her from screaming as the creature ripped Jazz’s arm off. Applebloom could feel tears start to form in the corners of her eyes. The creature then threw the mare down. The mare tried so desperately to get away. The mare looked up and saw the teary face of Applebloom before the black tentacle propelled through her head and the mare’s body went limp. Applebloom looked up at the creature who head was tilted to its side as it was staring at the now dead mare. The creature then looked up and by a blink of an eye, he was gone. Applebloom’s eyes darted around to find it and found it in a very bad place.......Right outside of her room. Aaand massive cliffhanger to leave you with :3. hope you enjoyed it and sorry it took awhile making it but i’m back from a trip so the next chapter will be out sooner than this one.
4: Things That Go Bump.Well, look who took their sweet time with this chapter! Sorry for the wait but i have been extremely busy lately with some stuff but im back. Hope you enjoy the chapter :D ~*~*~ Applejack was happily prancing around the farm, Mind free and without a care in the world. She looked out to her orchard. Celestia’s sun seemed to dance in the sky as the light beamed off her many shiny, red, crisp apples. She smiled at the sight and let out a loving sigh. She looked at the barn. The barn seemed to be brand new looking. Applejack made a surprised chuckle. “ Well would ya look at that” She said to no pony particular. She raised her hoof and brought her hat off her head. She looked towards the house. The house seemed to look brand new as well as Granny Smith sat on the front porch. Granny Smith looked over at Applejack and smiled warmly as Applejack watched her do something she didn't expect. Granny Smith stood up on her own, Without the use of a cane or even a grunt. Usually it was a chore for Granny to stand up on her own let alone without a cane. yet there she is, standing with ease without a care in the world. “How in tarnation” Was all Applejack could say. She looked at the orchard again. Out in the field Applejack could see three figures playing happily in the sun. Even at the distance she was at she could still hear their giggles and laughter. It was her little sister playing with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. They seemed to be playing some sort of game. From what Applejack saw it was probably tag. What seemed weird was that Scootaloo wasn't participating. Applejack walked up to the fillies playing. “ Hey’a Partner, why aren’t you playing?” Applejack said to Scootaloo. Scootaloo looked at Applejack with a warm smile. “ Oh cause I can't” “ Why not?” “ Well cause im dead featherbrain” Applejack looked at Scootaloo with a look of confusion. Something wasn't right, It was almost like the color from the world had turned to a darker version of what it once was. Applejack looked around. The once shiny,sweet, red apples was now replaced with rotted, sickening ones. The once blue, bright sky was now a death grey. Celestias Sun was now Lunas fearsome moon. Applejack looked back at Scootaloo or where she use to be. Instead of Scootaloo, there was now a tombstone. She looked at her sister. Tombstone. She looked at Sweetie Belle. Tombstone. “ This isn't happening. BIG MAC! WHERE IN SAMS HELL ARE YA?” Yelled Applejack. Applejack was hyperventilating. She ran towards the house, running past the disgusting fruit which her life was based around. She felt helpless, Running past the same tree over and over again. A branch snapped from a tree and landed on AppleJacks head. Applejacks eyes rolled to the back of her head as she was knocked unconscious. Applejack laid there, face down for the longest time. The feeling of pain was seeping through her head down through her whole body. She slowly lifted her head, her vision still reeling from the impact of the branch. She brought a hoof to her head and felt a wetness on the top of her head. Blood. As her eyesight began to come back she could tell that she wasn't on the farm anymore. She was in a Graveyard. She slowly rose to her hooves. She staggered forward before falling again, this time in front of a tombstone. She looked at the writing on it. Big Macintosh A Stallion Of Few Words. “no...” Applejack eyes began to water. This was too much. She backed away from the tombstone, only to hit another. This one held the name “Granny Smith”. She backed into another one.This one held no name, just a blank surface and a open hole just waiting for the next pony to be thrown in. Applejack began to stumble and faint. As she fell over she began to see something rise out of the grave.Upon seeing the creatures face, she knew exactly who it was. “You” was all Applejack was able to say before darkness consumed her mind and rendered her unconscious. ~*~*~ Applejacks eyes shot open. She breathed heavily as sweat dripped off her face. She wiped her forehead with her stenson in her hoof and put it back on its rightful place upon her head. She slowly started to calm her breathing down and steady her heart beat so it wasn't jumping out of her chest. *CREEEEEEEAK* Applejacks head whipped to the door to see her sister’s head popping out of the opening. Applejack sigh in relief as she looked at her sister. “ What in sams hay are ya'll doin up Applebloom?” Applebloom let out a yelp before looking at Applejack, also letting out a relieved sigh. “ Applejack, Is he in there? can you see him?” Applejack hesitated for a minute before answering. “ Who?” Applejack saw something in the corner of her eye move.It was subtle movement, but noticable. It was in the corner of the room, hiding in the shadows right next to Sweetie Belle’s bed. Without hesitation Applejack flicked on the lights. There was only a flash of light before the bulb exploded, but in that very short glimpse of light Applejack saw a pony with a suit in the corner staring at Sweetie. Applejack let out a scream which caused Applebloom to yell as well. Regaining her composure, Applejack ran towards the Slendermane but was collided into first. Applejack flew across the room, colliding with the wall behind her. She stumbled up to her hooves and with the rest of her might left, she turned and gave a powerful and heavy buck. Connecting to what she assumed Slendermane. “Applebloom, get a light or somethin. lets get a look at this here Slender fella” Applebloom ran out of the doorway and returned with a flashlight. She handed it to Applejack who turned it on and pointed it at where the Slendermane was lying. Slendermane was not lying against the wall. Yet in his place laid a small filly, the filly’s mane was a mess of purple and its coat was a pale orange, However the filly’s face was covered with a mask, Protecting its obvious identity.
