Secrets in Equestria

“Girls, girls, please calm yourselves.” Pinkamena stood in front of Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash inside of Sugarcube Corner. The three were furious and strangled between keeping their minds in check and the desire to hurt and not hurt Sunset all at the same time. The desire to hurt Sunset wasn’t their only problem, they hated Pinkamena as well, more so actually. Sunset may have been less than pleasant with them but Pinkamena threatened their families. To make it worse, Pinkamena wasn’t even sorry for anything, she never has been. Now here she was trying to tell the three of them to calm down.

“Screw…you Pinkamena.” Rainbow said doing everything in her power to keep from changing for the worst. The pills they took were taken. Yes they gave up their pills but only because of Pinkamena. Rainbow and the others were trapped with no way out.

“You will see the importance of being you again and once you do, we will have a few things to do. The first will be taking over Ponyville as our base of operations. After that, well, we will see how everything goes first.” Pinkamena sat back and watched as her friends struggled to fight their darker sides. The fight was amusing knowing all too well the fight was inevitable. Her friends would succumb in a matter of minutes. Pinkamena knew her friends well enough to know that they were without hope. Without hope, they would give up the fight. The first would be Rarity, then Applejack and finally the loyal Rainbow Dash. Pinkamena looked up at the clock. “I would say you have about ten seconds Rarity.” Pinkamena counted down the time and the second she came to one, Rarity collapsed to the floor. Pinkamena walked over and helped up her friend. “Ready Rarity?”

Rarity looked up with dull eyes before giving a wicked smile. Her eyes had a fire in them she had never had before. “Oh Darling, how could I be ready without my needle or someponies coat in my workshop?”

“It’s good to have you back Rarity, how do you feel?”

“I’m ecstatic about being back after being trapped within that pathetic goodie two hoofed fashionista.” Rarity turned when she heard a thud. “I see Applejack fell first, do you have any of her pills?”

“Of course I do, when have I ever not been prepared?”

“I don’t think ya have ever not been ready Sugarcube.” Applejack stood slowly almost forgetting how to stand. “It’s been far too long since we’ve been back. What’s the first thing?”

“Three…two…one.” Pinkamena said as another thud was heard. “Now with Rainbow Dash back, we need to get to the mayors office.” Rainbow smiled, weakly stood up and followed Pinkamena and the others out of Sugarcube Corner. Ponies around town coward the moment the five were seen walking down the street. Most ponies knew all about the five before they were good decent members of Ponyville. For this reason, they knew the signs of trouble just by seeing them. Ponies hid their children away or attempted to. Pinkamena wouldn’t allow any pony to hide. When some did, her friends would drag them out. “Don’t worry citizens of Ponyville, I won’t hurt you without reason so come to town hall and you won’t get hurt.” Ponies rushed to town hall and soon, all the houses were empty. When Pinkamena and the others arrived, Mayor Mare stood in front of Pinkamena and stared her down. “Mayor Mare, you have quite the backbone.”

Mayor Mare was terrified but she couldn’t back down. This was her town and she wouldn’t allow Pinkamena and her friends to stay. “You… you leave th-this instant P-P-P-Pinkamena.”

Pinkamena just smiled before punching Mayor Mare followed by a kick to her stomach and then a slash across her face. The cut was deep and would certainly leave a scar. Her blood dripped onto the ground. Pinkamena threw Mayor Mare to the ground and then looked into the crowd. “I am in charge now and anypony who wants to fight this will end up with Mayor Mare or should I just call you Mare now?” She looked at Mayor Mare and spit on her before turning back to the crowd. “You will all listen to me from now on or you will be punished.”

Filthy Rich wasn’t a fool but he couldn’t stand for this. “Leave us Pinkamena and let us have Pinkie Pie back!”

Pinkamena threw a knife and hit Filthy Rich right in the leg. “The next pony to mention my other half’s name again will meet a quick end.”

Spoiled Rich and Diamond Tiara rushed to Filthy’s side. Spoiled Rich looked up at Pinkamena. “You’re insane!”

Pinkamena laughed and shook her head. “No, I’m psychotic.”

“What’s the difference?”

“Easy, to say I’m insane would imply I have some sort of sanity. I don’t” Pinkamena looked at Diamond Tiara. “Hello Diamond.” Diamond Tiara was shaking and holding her father. “I know you enough Diamond Tiara. You are the biggest bully I know here in Ponyville along with Silver Spoon. I don’t like bully’s Diamond.”

“Says the bully in front of us.” Cheerilee said before finding herself with a knife in her leg.

“Now now Cheerilee, don’t be stupid. I’m simply keeping ponies safe from others and those that stand in my way are expendable. You must understand teach, there are terrible ponies in this world, bullies being one of them but they aren’t the only ones. I’m spreading my sights on bigger better prey if you will. I will go all through Equestria to make sure that all ponies remain safe. Do as I say, stand with me, and you won’t get hurt. As far as I’m concerned, if you fight against me, you fight for everything wrong with this world. I have always done things this way, making a meal out of my victims was simply insult to injury. They don’t deserve to be respected, they don’t derserve for ponies to feel bad about them and they don’t derserve to live.” Pinkamena turned to Diamond Tiara who was too scared to move and raised her knife into the air. “First I’ll rid the world of the rotten filly and then the mother that spawned her.” She didn’t get the chance to throw the knife as a blast of magic knocked it out of her hooves and sent it flying into the building behind her. Pinkamena looked into the air and saw a demonic looking Alicorn. “Who are you?”

The pony smiled as she floated. “I’m Sun Flare or as you knew me, Sunset Shimmer and now you will pay for what you did to me!”

Sun Flare lit her horn and Pinkamena and the others readied for a fight. “Bring it!” The five rushed toward Sun Flare. Pinkamena was going to end Sunset and no pony was going to stop her. H�넄1
