Blood Moon

Darkness was beginning to set in on the Empire and all was quiet. Once the sun was fully below the horizon, Fluttershy headed out onto the balcony to see if there was anypony out and about, anypony that she could turn into her next meal. Much to her displeasure, nopony at all was out and about. She noticed that many houses had their lights on and realized that if she wanted a meal that she would have to break in to get them.

"Pfft....they are nothing more than sparkly earth ponies. Getting in and eating them will be easy as pie."

As she readied herself to take flight towards a nearby house, she saw a bright light in the sky. She initially was unsure as to what it was but soon began to feel a sense of dread. She began to think that there was perhaps one thing that could defeat her and whatever that bright light was, that it could be that light. She would then become very nervous when she saw something that shouldn't be happening, dawn approaching. She wasn't sure why it was happening but knew that the approaching light likely had something to do with it.

She rushed into the palace but unlike she did earlier, she did not go into an interior room. She had heard about how one time Twilight used her magic to open a chasm into a dark abyss that existed when King Sombra ruled the Empire. She headed into the throne room and used her magic on the throne to reveal the passage. She knew that if whatever it was that she felt was hunting her saw it, that it would come down after her. Down there though, she felt like she would be most likely to be able to take it on.

LaurFa continued to search the palace, searching in every interior room that she could but was finding no trace of the vampony she sought. She knew that she couldn't be in a majority of the rooms as most of them had windows that would allow daylight to shine in and kill her. She then began to wonder about the throne room since it had no east facing windows. When she arrived, she saw the chasm and exclaimed, "That has to be it! She has to be down there!"

LaurFa began to walk down the stairs, unsure of what exactly to expect. She knew that she would likely be attacked but given the confined space that they would be in, she knew that the advantage would clearly be hers. She did not want to kill Fluttershy though, she wanted to go through with the wishes of most of the vampony's friends' wishes and try and remove the vampony before taking more drastic measures.

When she got to the bottom of the chasm, she saw Fluttershy there, with her horn glowing pink and a look of hunger in her eyes. She flared up her horn but rather than attacking, she decided she would address her instead, "Fluttershy, you have killed many, many ponies. You have more blood on your hooves than any soldier but I come to you on behalf of your friends, I have come here to save you."

Fluttershy was a bit suspicious of what the white Alicorn was hinting at but decided to humor her. She hissed, "Oh?"

LaurFa continued, "Yes. Princess Luna seems to think that I should just kill you but the others want me to try to save you." LaurFa then gave her a warm smile and added, "For your own good, let me spare you. Let me remove the vampony from you and you will be spared and face no punishment."

Fluttershy was having a hard time believing her but she then began to think that she could use this to her advantage. The Alicorn in front of her did look very tasty and figured that if she could get her to let her guard down, that she could feed on her. Fluttershy hissed, "Very well, you may remove the vampony from me."

LaurFa gave her another warm smile before staring straight into Fluttershy's eyes. Her horn gave a gentle glow as she readied herself to cast the proper spell. Fluttershy would keep a close eye on her though and once it appeared that she would be easy prey, she pounced. Fluttershy pounced on top of her, knocking her backwards. She then bore her fangs and sank them into LaurFa.

As she was feeding on her, she began to feel massive amounts of magic flowing into her body. The magic she was feeling was unlike what she got out of Luna and Twilight, it was something much stronger. She then felt a tingle as a special kind of magic flowed into her before she would be thrown. LaurFa gave her a glare and yelled, "So you have chosen the route of death."

Fluttershy blasted her with a powerful bolt of magic before flying up the chasm back to the throne room. She then cast the proper spell to hide the stairway into the chasm but would not be pleased when LaurFa burst through the floor. LaurFa knew that the time had come to take Fluttershy down and decided she would use sunlight to do so. She blasted a hole in the wall, revealing the outdoors. She began firing energy at the vampony and was able to chase her outside. Much to LaurFa's dismay, the sunlight was doing absolutely nothing to Fluttershy.

Fluttershy hissed, "You fool, you stupid fool! Once I drank some of your blood, I got some of your magic." She then fired a powerful bolt of magic at LaurFa and laughed, "And now you must die!"

The two began firing powerful bolts of energy at one another. Neither was paying attention where their energy was going and the homes of many crystal ponies were being destroyed. They all came out and began to yell at the two to stop it. Their yells would go unheard though as there was only one thing running through their minds, taking down their opponent.

Once the two got closer to the castle, Fluttershy unleashed multiple bolts of energy. One struck LaurFa and knocked her to the ground. The others hit the bottom of the palace and it began to collapse. LaurFa quickly got up and got out of the way so that her death would not come at the hands of a collapsing palace. When it finally collapsed, all of the crystal ponies began to shout angrily at the two, particularly Fluttershy since it was mostly her fault.

Again their yells would go unheard as they continued to focus on one another. Fluttershy would soon shoot LaurFa out of the sky and immediately landed on her and began to feed again. LaurFa's screams were more painful than before and the crystal ponies watched in horror as the white Alicorn became weaker and weaker. Finally she let out one final whimper before she breathed her last.

Fluttershy sniffed her to make sure that she was indeed dead but knew that LaurFa was no ordinary pony, she knew that simply sucking her dry may not be enough. She bit into her chest and began to tear her open. She did know that one thing needed to be done to make sure she was good and dead, her heart had to be removed. She continued to feast on her meat until she exposed the internal organs. She then took the heart and ripped it out of her body, causing the body to let out one final spasm.

She began to eat the heart and it was likely the tastiest thing she had ever eaten and once she finished the heart, she let out a triumphant hiss, "Now I can feed when I want, where I want and on who I want!"

She then licked her chops and immediately began to feed on the crystal ponies one by one. As she was feeding, she wondered whether she should perhaps only feed on one a day or simply kill them all in a matter of a couple of days before turning all of Equestria into one giant buffet. She got a smile on her face and hissed, "I'll eat them all quickly, I have a whole country to devour!"
