Mission to Manehattan

Twilight and her friend left The Throne Room of Friendship and went their separate ways to prepare for their trip to Canterlot. Twilight went to inform Spike that her and girls were going to Canterlot for a while and headed for her room. She packed quills, paper, and lots of books, also some flashcards into her saddle bag. She ran out the room into her study. She looked around the room for The Necronomicon. She found it on her desk sitting on top of some other books. She cast a spell to make the book invisible. She wasn't sure how Celestia would react to seeing a book with such a sinister looking face on it. She put the book in the saddle bag and closed it. After that she left her study. She ran down the stairs and out the door and closed the door with her magic. Before she left she cast another illusion spell to make it look like she had the saddle bags on the illusion her's back. While her real ones were on her real bodies back under the illusion. Her and her friends decided to meet each other at The Ponyville Train Station.

" Come on girls where are you?" Said Twilight. She looked to her left to see Pinkie and Applejack coming towards the station.

"Sorry we took so long. Pinkie here decided to stop for ice cream." Said Applejack.

"Whaaat.? I can't help it. I need my sweets." Said Pinkie. Just then Rainbow Dash landed in front of Twilight.

"Sorry girls had to feed Tank." Rainbow Dash said. Then Rarity and Fluttershy came from the right.

"Alright everyponies here. Come on girls." Said Twilight as the train arrived. The six friends stepped in and took their seats. Twilight sat next to Rarity. While Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie sat behind them. Rainbow Dash and Applejack sat across from Twilight and Rarity. The train started moving and Twilight looked out the window.

The train ride to Canterlot was very uneventful. Twilight sat and looked out the window. She was enjoying the view she had seen on every train ride she ever took.

Why are you going to Canterlot?

"Princess Celestia summoned me and my friends. I don't know why though all the letter said is that it is an urgent matter."Twilight said.

Is it possible that one of your "Friends" contacted the Princess and told her about us.

"What no the girls promised they wouldn't. It was a Pinkie Promise at that. We never break those." Twilight told the voice.

Are you sure about this?

"Yes I am 100 percent certain."

If you say so then fine. The voice said and then put an image of a frown in Twilight's head.

"Hey how did you do that?" Twilight asked flabbergasted.

It is another one of our skills. You can learn about it if you read further in the book.

"I'll read more when I get the chance alright." Twilight turned around to see all her friends looking at her with worried expressions." What?"

"Who are you talking to darling?" Asked Rarity.

"The voice remember. Sometime me and it have conversations." Said Twilight.

"Riiiight the voice." Applejack said. "And just what was this voice asking about?"

"It just wanted to know why I was heading to Canterlot."Twilight replied.

"Okay well can you stop talking to it. It's kinda making us uncomfortable. You know seeing you talk to nothing and all." Said Applejack

"Oh...sorry girls." Twilight said with a sheepish smile.

The train pulled into The Canterlot Train Station. The six friends stepped out and started making their way towards the castle. A couple moments later they reached the gates. The guards outside the gate saw Twilight and opened the gates for them. They entered the castle and made their way though the castle corridors and entered the castle throne room. Inside they saw Princess Luna and Princess Celestia talking to each other. They looked over to the door and saw the Mane 6 walking in.

"Ah Twilight you made it." Said Celestia. Twilight's friends bowed and so did Twilight out of habit. Celestia chuckled at this."Twilight you don't have to that anymore remember."

"Oh right." Twilight said as she got up. "So why have you called us here?"

"The reason you were summoned was because I need you to assist Luna with an investigation." Celestia said.

"What kind of investigation?" Twilight asked. Celestia paused for a little.

"There has been a murder in Manehattan." Said Celestia. There was a collected gasp from the Mane 6.

"A murder. Who would do such a terrible thing? " asked Rarity.

"That is why I asked Luna to assist you in this matter." Said Celestia as she looked towards Luna. "Your train to Manehattan will be leaving in an hour. "Luna will be arriving by chariot."

"Why will Princess Luna be coming with us?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"We have experienced this type of tragedy before.Though it is not common in this time, it happened often in the olden times. We assist you because we have ways of locating the murder." Said Luna.

"Oh okay." Said Rainbow as she flew to the ground. The ponies in the room said there farewells and then went off to prepare for the trip to Manehattan.

One Hour Later

The Mane 6 headed back to the train station and got on the train heading to Manehattan. The six took their original positions from their previous train ride and started talking with each other,besides Twilight who was reading The Necronomicon. She had cast an illusion spell on it.The book now had a red cover with gold on the spine of the book. The title now read Starswirl The Bearded's Guide to Defensive Magic. She was on page 1045 of the book. This section of the book dealt with powerful detection spells. Once she was done with the page the next spell dealt with transformation spells. The next page dealt with more teleportation spells. The next one transmogrify. Rarity looked over to Twilight.

"What you reading there dear?" Rarity asked. Twilight turned towards Rarity and held up her book. Rarity looked at the book and gave an approving smile."I glad you stop reading that other horrible book you found." Twilight put the book down and spoke.

"Yup no more of that book." She said and gave a sheepish smile and Rarity turned back around to talk with Pinkie. Twilight picked the book back up and started reading again. She flipped the page and saw the spell the voice had told her about."Ah here it is."

Later In Manehattan

The train pulled into the station and the six friends exited. There were three Royal Guard waiting for them. The guard saluted when the saw Twilight.

"Princess Twilight,Princess Luna is waiting for you at the murder sight. She has asked us to escort you there where she is waiting."Said a guard with a white coat and black mane. The three guards escorted Twilight and her friends to the sight. They entered a tall blue and white building. The inside of the building was nicely decorated. There were plants that looked like they were well taken care of. The floor was a nice tile pattern of black and yellow and the walls of the building on the inside were white. Twilight and her friends were led to a room on the first floor. There were six more Royal Guard standing outside the room and they stood on either side of the door. The three escorts moved to the side and let the Mane 6 enter the room. What they saw horrified them except Twilight for some odd reason. The walls of the room were stained with dried blood,the same is said for the floor. Rarity and the other gagged at the sight except for Twilight. Fluttershy almost screamed at the sight and hid behind her mane. Princess Luna stood of to the side and addressed the six.

"This murder happened at least three days ago.if thou wish to leave now would be the time." Luna said. All of Twilight's friends had decided to leave the room while her and Luna stayed. Luna closed the door with and magic and turned towards Twilight. " Why dost thou wish to stay Twilight Sparkle?" She asked.

"This sight should have made me hurl when I saw it,but i wasn't phased at all. I...I think it might have to do something with the dream I had."Twilight responded. Luna gave a nod and asked Twilight to follow her. She led Twilight to a closet. She opened it and the smell of death hit Twilight's nose. She hardly even reacted she only stared at the body. The body had been sliced in half. Then Luna led her to the bathroom.The bathroom door was smashed in. Inside there was two other bodies one had his head smashed into the wall. The other one had her intestines ripped out and around her neck signaling that she was strangled. Again Twilight was not phased. Luna had a concerned look on her face. Twilight broke the silence. "The way these ponies died seems all too familiar. Wouldn't you agree Luna?" Luna was now confused. Why would the way these ponies died be familiar to her?

"What dost thou mean?"Luna asked

"Remember when I told you about my dream. Remember how the ponies I found were killed in a brutal fashion? These ponies looked to have been murdered the same way." Twilight explained.

"Yes we remember,but that was a dream. A pony did this."Luna said with a little retortion in her voice.

"A pony or something else. Think about the stallion that had his head smashed into the wall. A pony does not have enough strength to do that, even if it was an earth pony it would take more that one strike. Also the height of his body is similar to the height of discord. The murder could have been a unicorn but there is no previous magic signature. Even though it has been three days the signature would still be in the air.You would have been able to sense it. It is also possible that it could have been a minotaur. But why would a minotaur have a grudge against a pony so bad that it led to them killing the pony and two others. Also think about the mare that had her intestines ripped out and then strangled with them. A pony would have to be pretty strong to rip through the flesh and muscle. A minotaur could have probably done it. That now brings us to the mare in the closet. Minotaur's wield weapons but those mostly consist of clubs. Some have sharp edges but they are usually very dull. The cut was clean and precise. You can also tell that There was a lot of power put into the swing. My guess is the pony was cut in half and then crawled into the closet. That would explain why there was blood on the ceiling and floor and the walls. The murders had been committed by the same pony. Only the murder is not a pony,a minotaur, griffon,or zebra,nor is it a monster." Luna was thinking over what Twilight had just said.

"Ho...how did she?"Luna thought mentally. Twilight looked towards Luna.

"Are you alright Luna?"Twilight asked. Luna looked towards Twilight.

"Yes we are fine. How dost thou knowest of these details? Are thou a expert on this type of matter?" Luna asked.

"I've studied under you sister for most of my life. I have learned almost about every langue of every tribe and nation on Eqquis. I know almost every species to live on the planet and I know their physiology." Twilight said with hint of pride that went unnoticed by Luna.

"We had no idea of thou's vast knowledge." Luna said. Twilight then lit her horn and the room around them started to change. The blood from the ceiling and floor disappeared. Luna looked around the room was now clean. She was about to walk towards the bathroom when the door opened. She looked towards it to see the stallion and the two mares walk in. The stallion walked over to the bed and layed in his back. The mares walked up. One of them walked up and grabbed the stallions member and preceded to give him a hoof job.
The second mare walked over and started licking the stallions sack. The first mare now placed her mouth over the members tip. The stallion moaned as the mare gave him a blowjob. A little while later the first mare allowed the second mare to get her fill of the stallions member. After that the stallion got off the bed while the two mares hopped on the bed. The stallion stood back and try to decide which one he would do first. The stallion went with the mare with the yellow for and red mane. The stallion went up to her and inserted his member into her vagina. The stallion started slow and then fastest and faster. The mare screamed at the top of her lungs. She screamed "Yes" over and over again. The second mare rubbed her clint while she watched. The door was suddenly smashed and the three ponies stopped. They turned around to see a bipedal creature holding a machete in its hand. The first mare screamed and tried to run out the door. She thought she could push past it but instead it grabbed her by the tail lifted her up and sliced her clean in half. She fell to the floor and she crawled over to a closet. The remaining ponies ran to the bathroom and closed the door.

"What are we gonna do?" The mare asked.

"I...I don't know." The stallion responded. The creature smashed through the bathroom door and turned towards the stallion who prepared to fight. The stallion charged the creature and was going to buck it. Instead the creature dodged the attack by side stepping. The creature grabbed him by the neck picked him up and smashed his head into the wall with one powerful thrust. The mare backed against the wall as she watched the creature. It turned towards her and walked her way. It stopped in front of her. It looked at the mare and it grabbed her. It held her in the air. She struggled but it was all inevitable. The creature thrust it hand into her stomach and ripped out her intestines out. It then wrapped them around her neck. One side was around her neck and the other side in the creatures hand. The mare hung in the air. She was dead the creature dropped her and picked up its machete and left the room.

The room returned to normal and Twilght horn died. "How did thou do that. Even our sister is not capable of such a feat. We are not sure even our parents could do that. Luna said.

"That is not important right now. We now know what is responsible for this murder. The being from my dream is real and it it here in Equestria." Twilight said as she turned to leave the room. Luna stayed behind and was in complete bewilderment. She headed out the room and followed Twilight out the building.
