The thing about legends is that, sometimes, they're true
My name is Violet Galaxy and i'm a 21 years old bat pony. I live in Hollow Shades, place which is known around the Equestria as "The Cursed Town", since every second myth or legend about monsters comes from here, from Slendermane to Headless horse, but a new rumor has come up of a creature, no, a monster in Hollow Shades that stands high as if it was a minotaur, with metal protruding out of its back and arms like a dragon. The locals say it has a face of a demented, cracked faced porcelain doll with a stare that will make even King Sombra get a shivers down his spine. They say It carries a rusted piece of metal wrapped in old bandages, stained with some type of red liquid ,and carries a bear trap that the spikes resemble a manticore's teeth. Some ponies say that its 'real' face is distorted and scarred, as if the wounds are old; and wears a outfit that represents a butcher, but is made of some old,green material. The name the locals have given to this thing is, The Trapper. Of course, at first the locals wouldn't believe it, as they thought The Trapper was just what It is, a rumor. However, recent disappearance of ponies and bear traps they found on their way to find those poor souls made them think otherwise. They say it is just a bloodlusted monster, just like they say for the rest of creatures who walk alone in the darkest parts of Equestria.
I never believed in tales that The Trapper is evil, i always think that there's reason he's doing this and i'm about to find it.
Currently, i'm walking through the Hollow Shades' forest, watching out for any bear traps. Honestly, it was so relaxing to be alone in the forest at night. That may sounds wierd, but it's true. Because of my body, i'm unofficially crowned as "Hollow Shades' hottest mare". Pfffff, what a joke. It's more disadvantage than advantage. I can't push stallions away, they just keep coming from the left or from the right.
"Well, well. What do we have here? Pretty mare like you shouldn't be in this place, especially at this time." i heard masculine and sinnister voice behind the tree few meters to my right. Pony behind it made his appearance and my eyes widen. It was Red Moon, self-dubbed as "The hottest stallion in Hollow Shades". He was tall and muscular with short lavander mane and tail. He is also very arrogan asshole and believed that "The hottest stallion in Hollow Shades" should be together with "The hottest mare in Hollow Shades". He once asked me on a date and i refused him, knowing that all he had in his mind was sex. He was out raged and tried to spread various rumors about me, but since most of Hollow Shades knew me, they didn't believe him.
"R-red?" i stammered and backed away slowly while he was closing in.
"Yes, it's me Galaxy. I knew you would remember. I also remember that you rejected me that day, so i'm gonna reject any beg for mercy from you." he said with an evil grin on his face. I was backing away until i hit the tree. He grinned even more, knowing that i have nowhere to go. He came very close and focefully kissed me. I could feel his hoof slowly making its way towards my intimate area. I wanted to scream and cry out for help, but i knew that there's nopony to help me now and i screamed, he would probably kill me.
Ohhhhhhh, perrrrrrrrrrrrr. Ohhhhhh, perrrrrrrrrrrr
Red Moon stopped kissing me as we both heard those strange sounds. It sounded like sompony was breathing through some mask of sorts. Then, i saw a giant figure towering over Red Moon. My eyes widen at the sight of the creature. It was... The Trapper!
Red Moon noticed my gaze and looked behind him. His eyes widen to, but didn't stay like that for long because huge meat cleaver connected with them. Red Moon fell on the ground screaming in pain, but there was nopony to help him here. I could only watch in complete terror as The Trapper hit him with his cleaver again, again, again and again. In the end, Red Moon was turned into a distorted, bloody meat pieces. Then The Trapper looked at me. I couldn't take it anymore and i passed out from shock.
I woke up in with a slight headache. I tried to stand up, but then i felt somepony bringing me back on the bed.
"Easy now, Miss Galaxy." i opened my eyes and saw doctor Heart Beat.
"Doctor..." i said groggyngly, "What happened?".
"Some nearby bat ponies were camping in the forest when they heard a scream. They quickly ran to its source and found you next to a bloody puddle. They carried you here as quickly as possible." he said and i slowly started to remeber the events that happened that night. Red Moon, rape attempt, The Trapper... The Trapper! I remembered the huge meat cleaver, the creepy breathing and the scariest mask i've ever seen.
"How long have i been out?" i asked Heart Beat.
"You were asleep for a 48 hours days Miss Galaxy. I feared that you would fall into a coma. Fortunately, you didn't." my eyes widen at his words. Two whole days! Thank Luna, if those bat ponies haven't found me...
"Thank you for all you've done for me, doctor. Now, could you please leave me alone. I need some time to absorb everything that happened recently?" i asked with a small smiled. He nodded.
"Of course, Miss. It is my job to help ponies." he headed to the door.
"Oh, if you need anything, just call." he said and closed the door behind him. I sighed and thought about Trapper killing Red Moon. I did hated Red Moon with burning passion, but i never wanted him to end like this. This was to much. Was i wrong? Is Trapper really just a mindless monster?
Unconsciously, i looked through the window which had a view at the forest. I froze. At the entry of the forest stood a giant with bloodied meat cleaver in its right hand, bloodied butcher outfit, metal pipes pounding out of its shoulder and a porcelain mask with the terrorish grin on it.
