Live or Dieby Poppy8ChaptersAcid DipToo CloseThe Death of A StarTwo For OneRevealedThe Start of the BeginningAcid DipBlood Bones was fixing his room up as it was right next to his brother's room: Timidthy. Blood Bones room had a ruby-red floor that shimmered every time the light turned on. The wall was covered in flames as red, black, and purple blended perfectly together. He had a big bed with plenty of fluffy blankets on it. Blood Bones didn't want to admit it but he needed many blankets in his sleep to wrap around in. His bed also had miniature stuffed pony dolls of the most recent bad guy's and criminals that had hurt Timidthy. Some of them we're torn and had their stuffing ripped out, if you'd asked Blood Bones he'd say he liked to beat and destroy thing's. But what he really had those dolls for was he'd often execute them (after giving them a fair trial of course) he'd then celebrate by burning the doll and he'd feel happy. He cared about Timidthy and anypony that hurt him he hated, and those wanted to severely hurt (or kill). Blood Bones looked at his flank and it was blank, he sighed. Ever since he'd been brought back the mark had disappeared as if it was never truly his. Blood Bones smiled slightly and jumped on the bed as he got ready to go to sleep. Meanwhile Timidthy was lying on his own bed as he breathed in and out peacefully. It had been three months since Blood Bones had become his brother and he loved the lack of danger and adventure that hadn't happened. Timidthy smiled as he thought of his new brother Blood Bones, he had noticed Blood Bones's cutiemark had just vanished. And he didn't tell Blood Bones but he had changed drastically from just thinking of himself and wanting to kill ponies for no reason but to pleasure himself. To wanting to hurt or kill ponies because of the terrible, horrible, and horrific deeds they did. Especially when Timidthy was involved, Blood Bones would jump into action and weigh whether the pony deserved to live. It slightly scared Timidthy that his brother still wanted to inflict harm onto ponies but at least hurting bad ponies would help improve the world. Timidthy blushed deep red and got up from his bed, he had heard that ponies had gone missing and would be found dead. Timidthy gulped, he had almost forgotten about that and he hoped the pony who was doing the crimes would soon be caught. But that still didn't help with his nerves, he knew it was silly but Timidthy grabbed the pillow he'd gotten from Sweet Dreams for his birthday and walked to his brother's room. Hour's later the streets of Canterlot we're empty as they all slept in their beds safe.....at the moment. The view then slowly moved down to the Canterlot dungeons as a zerbra by the name of Zecora was hung by the ceiling and side's of the walls by chains. That held her head, front hooves and back hooves. In front of Zecora was a small figure in a chair as it wore a black cloke hiding its face, mane, and tail perfectly. Zecora woke up as her eye's slowly fluttered open, while her eye's adjusted to the darkness she immediately noticed the small figure. "Mystery pony, I must ask. Are you the one who's left me in these chains metal grasp?" Zecora said cautiously as she tried to figure out who the pony was. The figure smiled and banged her front hoof on the chair and a timer appeared in front of Zecora and it read two minutes. As the figure did that, a vat of yellow liquid bubbled to life as it was held in a black caldron underneath Zecora her mouth just barely over it. Zecora raised an eyebrow, the figure spoke, its voice deep and masculine. "Zecora you have two minutes to escape, as you can see a vat full of acid is underneath you. And the chains are holding you above it, if you fail to escape then the chains will pull your limbs off painfully. And hopefully your head will be included, for after the chains leave your body then you will be dunked into the acid. So it's time to make your choice Zecora. Live or Die?" Before Zecora had time to react the timer started counting down, Zecora gasped as she yanked at the chains. She did it for a full minute before realizing she didn't have much time left. She looked at the acid and dipped her tail in the acid and swung it against her left and right chains that held her back hooves. Her tail (along with the chains) sizzled, Zecora winced slightly and pulled as the chains that held her back hooves gave out and Zecora desperately held her back hooves in. In order to prevent her hooves from getting eaten by the acid. Zecora looked the timer and it read thirty seconds, Zecora paled and gasped. She then (hurriedly) flipped herself so a bit of her mane could get in the acid. Zecora was just about to flip back up and rub the acid on the chains that held her front hooves. Until Zecora heard a loud buzz and looked at the timer. It read zero, Zecora started crying as the chains pulled, her bones made sickening crunches and pop's. Zecora screamed and the chains ripped her front hooves off and fell into the acid bellow. Zecora screamed a blood curdling scream as she thrashed around in the acid and it turned red from her blood. Soon her body stopped moving and the life in her died, the figure smiled evilly. Unfazed by the gore and blood, it then laughed evilly. And said, "Looks like Zecora chose to die." As the view slowly rose back to the streets of Canterlot. Everything was silent as the ponies we're unknown to the loss of a life right underneath them. Too CloseThe news of Zecora's disappearance had spread like wildfire all throughout Equestria. And so far Timidthy was handling it as well as you'd expect. "She's gone! And she'll wind up dead, I know it! Poor Zecora what type of monstrous pony would take a full-grown innocent mare!" Timidthy cried, as him and his friend's we're sitting in the dinning room. Bumper snorted, "Just look at your brother he's done worse." Bumper said. Timidthy and Blood Bones glared at him, "Oh really and how was humiliating my brother any different?" Blood Bones said. Bumps blushed as his eye's glossed over with tears. "Says the pony who tried to take over Equestria and kill my pet!" Bumper said his voice just barely cracking. Blood Bones blushed and growled as he opened his mouth. But Timidthy put his hoof over his mouth and signalled him to just drop it. French Press tsked and shook her head, "Thumpy get over it he's good now and it helps that Timidthy is his brother and can keep him under the radar." French Press said. Bumper blushed at the use of his pet name and muttered a small, "Fine." Sweet Dreams snickered, while Crepe snorted and Binkey whispered a small. "Dawww." Blood Bones smirked slightly, Timidthy sighed as his ears drew back. He cleared his throat grabbing everypony's attention. "Guy's, we have to do something. Zecora isn't the first pony to go missing........." Timidthy said muttering the last part. Blood Bones's ears went back and he tried sinking into his seat. To avoid any glares and most importantly hide his face. That was going green. He may not mind blood and gore but just the thought of an innocent pony dying the ways the other's had went, made him sick. The kid's paled and looked at Timidthy and Blood Bones with worry. They had heard more ponies before Zecora had went missing. But the haden' t known they died, they hadn't known both stories we're connected. And there parents had made sure to hide the newspapers from them. Timidthy and Blood Bones had guessed they didn't know the full truth. But now they knew for sure, Timidthy then teleported three newspaper's in front of them. Timidthy looked away from the pictures. As his friends saw the gruesome death's that had been photographed. Blood Bones hid his face entirely, the other's gasped and grew green as well. Timidthy quickly teleported the pictures away. And replaced them with glasses of bubbling soda. The friend's quickly grabbed the glasses and sucked the constants down. To avoid vomiting on the castle floor, or worse yet on the table. Blood Bones would've found it humorous. If it werent for the fact he was trying to fight the wave of nausea he was experiencing. Timidthy felt his stomach twist and turn as his face flushed red. He took a deep breath and spoke as his friend's (and brother) managed to compose themselves. "We have to figure out who this sick, corrupted criminal is and lock them away!" Timidthy said, and the kid's cheered until a deep raspy voice spoke. "Oh heck no! That's the last thing you kid's are doing!" The kid's jumped and turned around to see Shimmer Sword. (One of the royal guard's) with an irritated yet concerned look on his face. Blood Bones and Bumper got up to protest but they sat back down. As they saw Watch Dog (another royal guard) walk in with a grim and serious expression on his face. "That's right, you kid's are the future of Equestria. And recently you have proven to shine bright. But that light will fade if you go digging in the wrong places. You are to not go looking for the mystery mass murderer or else we will have to tell Celestia and your parent's." Watch Dog said sternly, Blood Bones was the only one who had the guts to speak up. "But ponies are dying and even the one's who live are suffering mentally and physically!" The guard's rolled their eye's. And Watch Dog picked the two princes up while Shimmer Sword picked their friend's up. "Don't you dare do it." said Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog. The kid's didn't even try escaping the guard's grasp. As they walked them to their respected homes. As Shimmer Sword returned to the castle he saw Watch Dog shut Blood Bones's room door. He looked exhausted and said to his partner, "The two wouldn't go to sleep they kept screaming at me that everypony was in danger and something had to be done." Watch Dog said. Shimmer Sword nodded solemnly, "Same they all wouldn't shut up, their parent's each and every one of them asked me to put a shield over their beds. If the killer tried to get them. It's set up with alarms and everything and doesnt disappear until they get out of bed. And reappears when they get into bed." Shimmer Sword said as Watch Dog noticed the bags under his eye's. Watch Dog sighed and walked with Shimmer Sword, until they saw a small figure. The two gasped and started charging after the figure. The last thing the two guard's saw was the figure's smile. As that both felt sleepy and woozy and they passed out and everything went black. The two guard's woke up tied together as they tried to move they both winced in pain. As they looked at the ropes they realized (to their horror) that they we're tied with barbed wire. And they looked around, they saw that there was a string of it trailing off somewhere unknown. As they looked around they saw they we're in shed of some kind. They then heard a masculine voice, "Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog, it's your turn to choose. The end of the wire is close to an open flame, which yours truly will light it. And you will burn along with the shed." said the deep voice. Shimmer Sword growled, "You can't do this! Let us go!" Watch Dog said. The deep voice growled and considered to burn them anyway, "Anyway, you only have one minute to make a very delicate choice. It's been thrown around that you two are dating and well I have to agree with them. So here's what you have to do, tell each other how you really feel and that's it! You live, but if you can't or won't you will die a painful death. Now make your choice soldiers, live or die." the deep voice finished. As a clock started counting down from one minute above the guard's. The guard's faces we're blushed a deep shade of red as they stared at the clock with fear. The two remained silent too afraid to speak as they weighed their choices. The answer seemed simple. (But if you've even been in love especially with the same-sex. You'd probably be afraid to speak as well) just tell each other how they feel, simple. But as the saying goes easier said then done, the guard's stared at the clock and it read twenty seconds. Watch Dog's lip trembled as he shut his eye's and spoke, "I love you man with all my heart! I know it's not exactly normal to be in love with your same-sex but I do!" Watch Dog said as his face went redder. Shimmer Sword blushed redder as well, he looked at the clock as it then read ten seconds. Shimmer Sword felt his eye's tear up as the clock read five seconds. Watch Dog started crying as it read two seconds, Shimmer Sword caved. "I love you too and I hope we can be more than friends!" Shimmer Sword cried just as the clock stopped at one second. There was slow clapping as the figure came out of the shadows. (Still wearing its trademark cloke) and undid the barbed wire. The two stallions fell into a heap relieved to have their lives. And started sobbing having been mentally scared. The figure smiled evilly, "You know some ponies don't value thier lives. But not you too......not anymore." the figure said. As it laughed evilly and left, it opened the shed door and walked out. As the moon shined through the door the moon light moved past the stallions. And landed on a piece of paper and the paper had a list of ponies names on it. On the list, there read the name's: Celestia and Luna. The Death of A StarCelestia and Luna (with permission of their parent's) had gathered up Timidthy's friends and now had them in her private study. Celestia had heard from Watch Dog and Shimmer Sword about their kidnapping. And it scared her that such a small figure could somehow sneak into the castle. Knock out two royal guard's and threaten their lives without slipping up and revealing themselves by mistake. It just didn't seem possible! Timidthy was hugging his brother tightly, Blood Bones was blushing madly. (Though it was hard to tell) as he hugged back, Sweet Dreams was wrapping her wing around Timidthy. French Press and Bumper we're holding each other's hooves and finally Crepe was biting his hooves. While Binkey was sucking on one of his pacifiers, Watch Dog and Blood Bones sat we're watching the kid's. As they secretly wrapped their tails around the other one's, the figure may have threatened their lives but now they we're a couple. Luna and Celestia we're in a royal conference talking to other kingdom leader's about what they we're going to do and how they we're going to save their subject's. The group waited for hour's until it became the time for the moon to have raised. But the sun was still up and that was worrying, Timidthy and Blood Bones looked at the sun. And lit up their horns, soon the sun became surrounded in blood-red and dandelion yellow magic. Their horns we're sparking madly as the two young alicorns struggled to lower the sun. The other's watched in amazement as the two lowered the sun very slowly, no sooner did they do that the moon rose. Blood Bones and Timidthy's magic died as all their horn did was spark and sputtered. Their eye's we're pale as they fell over from exhaustion, Crepe and Binkey helped the two up and moved them onto Celestia's bed. The two landed on the bed in a heap and tried to fall asleep and cancel out the worry in their mind's for their mother and aunt. The kid's looked at the guard's with fear and uncertainty in their eye's. "Whe-Where's Celestia and Luna?" French Press squeaked out, the guard's looked at the kid's and put them into the bed. "Don't worry I'm sure their fine." Watch Dog said and Shimmer Sword pulled out a magical laser like sword. And held the sword in one hoof as he walked around the bed until it closed into a complete circle. The circle glowed as a large force field surrounded the bed. The kid's stared in amazement, "Go to sleep. Everything will be fine in morning." Shimmer Sword said and the two watched as the kid's got under the covers and fell asleep. As soon as they all went to sleep the guard's quickly ran out of the room. And got all the guard's to look around for princess Celestia and Luna. Unfortunately the princesses weren't going to be found in the castle. Luna woke up in what looked to be a dungeon she stood in the center of it as a spotlight shone on her. "Princess Luna, your know to be the princess of the moon. Or how some ponies remember you as Nightmare Moon. You have one minute to escape the cell you're in, if you fail to. A bomb will go off in your cell splattering you all over the wall's. I apologize your sister couldn't join but she's in another cell. Make your choice Luna. Live or Die." a deep voice said as it echoed across the wall's. And a timer appeared in front of Luna and it counted down from one minute. Luna gasped, she tried activating her magic but her horn wouldn't respond. She ran to the edge of the cell and bucked the bars but they could budge. Luna looked around the room and saw a file on the floor and quickly started sawing the bars. She had managed to weaken five of the bars as she stared at the timer, it read thirty seconds. Luna started hyperventilating as she bucked the bar's. She kept going until the timer read ten seconds, Luna broke down and stared sobbing as put her back against bars. "I-I'm sorry sister." Luna said as she stared at the timer, it read three seconds. "I-I'm sorry Timidthy and Blood Bones's." she whispered just as the timer buzzed and a bomb went off. And Luna's flesh, and internal organs got spattered on the walls. A deep voice laughed evilly, "Looks like Luna chose to die." it said as disappeared to Celestia's cell. Celestia had been startled awake by a loud boom, and she was trying to figure out where she was. But it was hard to do so with a blindfold over her eye's, "Princess Sun Butt, you are known to be the princess of the sun. Today your going to be tested your cell is wide open all you have to do is walk out. But be careful, there might be some obstacles in the way. You have thirty seconds to get out or.....well let's just say you will be flatter then a pancake." said a deep voice. The timer stated to count down as Celestia felt her heart race. As she tried to light her horn to get the blindfold off, but her horn wouldn't respond because it had been sawed off. It lied on the floor a few feet from Celestia but unfortunately (and fortunately based on how you see it) Celestia gave up and used her sense of direction to find the door as she hurriedly made a path straight towards it. The timer read fifteen seconds just as Celestia was about to get out of the cell. Suddenly Celestia felt indescribable pain shoot through her back hoof. If Celestia hadn't been blindfolded shed had seen that she'd sprung a beartrap and it was now tearing at her flesh and daring to snap the bone inside. The timer read five seconds as Celestia kept going and just as she got out of the cell. The timer buzzed and the wall's slammed shut. Meanwhile the figure was in a room filled with tv screens. It had been slightly disappointed that Celestia had lived. But Luna's death was entertaining, the figure then looked at one of the screens. And it had Timidthy, Sweet Dreams, French Press, Bumper, Crepe, Blood Bones, and Binkey we're all sleeping in Celestia's bed. It smiled evilly as it pressed a button and the bed the kid's we're in fell apart and the kids fell down a tunnel that was underneath the bed. It laughed evilly, now the real fun was about to begin. Two For OneTimidthy woke up his eye's felt heavy and weak, his heart started thumping as he saw he was in a well. Timidthy looked up and saw his brother hanging over well. Timidthy strained his eye's and saw that he was breathing, Timidthy looked at his brother. He still had his bat-like wing's and his horn, he didn't have any cuts or bruises. He was fine, Timidthy felt his forehead and felt his horn was still there and looked at his wing's. His wing's we're fine, though they we're tied to his side's they looked fine. Timidthy felt pain in his lower admin but before he could worry some more he saw Blood Bones stir awake. Blood Bones looked around, "Blood Bones! Down here!" Timidthy cried. Blood Bones looked down and gave a relieved smile. Blood Bones then gave an uncomfortable and pained look, "You too huh?" Timidthy said as he blushed slightly. Blood Bones gave a sheepish smile, Blood Bones lit up his horn and lifted Timidthy out of the well. Once Timidthy hit solid ground he undid the ropes that hung Blood Bones and put Blood Bones on the ground. The two brother's looked to see they we're in a cottage of some sort the place was comforting to say the least. "Glad to see you two got out of your predicaments." a deep voice said, Timidthy jumped and hugged Blood Bones. "Anyway, you and your friend's will participate in a test of sorts. Your's is easy just sit and do nothing. But here's the catch you two will have to watch your friend's as they live or die. If you two try to leave and help your friend's or leave for the little colts room. You will die." the deep voice continued, Timidthy and Blood Bones blushed slightly. While their tails flickered nervously, suddenly a blue circle surrounded the brother's. Blood Bones growled slightly and got ready to step from the circle. "You might not want to do that, this is where leaving will cause your downfall. These circles will electrocute you if you put more than a hoof out of it. So good luck. It's your choice, live or die." the deep voice finished. Timidthy started crying, while Blood Bones had a furious look on his face. Then the wall turned. As Timidthy and Blood Bones saw Sweet Dreams unconscious on a platform with a timer above it. Their was a strange metal helmet like contraption on her head. Soon Sweet Dreams soon woke up and she felt joy as she saw Timidthy and Blood Bones. But she quickly realized that they we're upset, she opened her mouth to ask what was wrong. Unfortunately she was quickly answered, "Sweet Dreams this challenge will get you and your victim to step out of your comfort zones. The helmet on your head is connected to the timer that is set for five minutes. This helmet when the timer goes off will drive sharp knives into your head." said the voice. Sweet Dreams paled, Timidthy gasped. Blood Bones eye's filled with horror, "The key to it is in one of your friend's bladders. You will either have to cut into them and find the key or make them wet themselves to get the key. Either way it's gonna be entertaining for me." the figure continued. By then Sweet Dreams's jaw had dropped and her face was flushed red. Timidthy's body was completely red, and Blood Bones back legs we're shaking. "So I wish you three the best of luck. Sweet Dreams it's time to make your choice. Live or Die." The circles around Blood Bones and Timidthy disappeared. As the timer started to count down. Sweet Dreams snapped out of her daze and looked at the two colts, this was highly inappropriate. Sweet Dreams felt beads of sweat go down her forehead. Sweet Dreams grabbed a knife that was beside her and hesitantly walked in between the two colts. She looked at the timer it read four minutes, Timidthy blushed redder and gulped. "Sw-Sweet Dreams, please put the knife down." Timidthy said with fear in his voice. Sweet Dreams looked at Timidthy, "I'll only have to do it if you two refuse to cooperate. I won't look if you two find it necessary but I don't want to die!" Sweet Dreams said, her voice quivering. Blood Bones bit his lip, "Fi-Fine but we never speak of this." Blood Bones said. Sweet Dreams nodded and walked away from the colts and turned around. She looked at the clock that now read three minutes, Blood Bones and Timidthy looked at the clock. As they felt an uncomfortable warm sensation come from their bladders. And spread around them. As the two ran out of liquids in their bladder. Blood Bones yelped in pain as he felt something hard squeeze through his bladder. Sweet Dreams turned around and saw the key, she then ran over as her mind raced trying to figure out how to get the key out. Sweet Dreams looked at the timer and her heart skipped a beat she only had two minutes left! Timidthy was biting his lip hard while Blood Bones looked at her with fear. "I-I'm sorry!" Sweet Dreams cried as she grabbed at the key, Blood Bones eye's widened in shock. "Sweet Dreams don't tell me your--" said Timidthy fearfully. Just before he was cut off when Sweet Dreams pulled and Blood Bones screamed in pain. Sweet Dreams pulled harder and harder but the key wouldn't come out. By then Blood Bones was crying, Timidthy face was blushed deep red as he covered his ears. Sweet Dreams looked at the timer again and saw that only one minute was left. Sweet Dreams was desperate as she grabbed the knife she had before. Timidthy looked away knowing thing's we're going to get worse. Blood Bones screamed, "No! Don't do it!" Sweet Dreams ignored his objections as she sliced at his bladder. Blood Bones screamed in agony, Sweet Dreams stopped and threw the knife seat that had blood and urine in it. She then pulled at the key one more time with as much strength as she could muster. Blood Bones screamed again as the key was pulled out and Sweet Dreams hit the edge of the platform. She looked at her hooves, she smiled as she saw the key in her hooves. Sweet Dreams stared at the timer and it read twenty-five seconds. Sweet Dreams screamed, she then jammed the key onto the key hole of her helmet. Timidthy stared between Sweet Dreams and the timer with ever-growing worry. Blood Bones clutched his bladder as he prayed that Sweet Dreams would make it. The timer ticked down from five, Sweet Dreams finally undid the lock and the helmet fell from her head. The timer stopped at three seconds and the three friends sighed in relief. "Looks like you live Sweet Dreams. Now you can either leave or join your friend's." said the deep voice. Sweet Dreams then tucked her tail underneath her. And sat in between Timidthy and Blood Bones as the circles surrounded them one more. Meanwhile the entire kingdom was in panic. Celestia and Luna we're missing and now seven kid's we're as well! Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog sent out a full grid search as all the castle staff and everypony was on the lookout. And all everypony could do was search and hope that the missing ponies we're okay. RevealedAs the three friend's waited for the next trial they waited in awkward silence. Timidthy finally spoke up, "U-Um.......Sweet Dreams.......I just wanted to say I'm glad your alive. But of you had to would you have hurt Blood Bones even more?" Timidthy said stating his word's very cautiously. Blood Bones looked at Sweet Dreams with lingering fear. While Sweet Dreams blushed deep red. "No, of course not! Blood Bones is your brother and if I had to do more harm I'd simply give my last word's and let that helmet take my life!" Sweet Dreams said as she pointed at the helmet with disgust. Blood Bones smiled slightly but Timidthy's ears ducked down. As he tried to give his best pleased smile. Blood Bones looked at Timidthy with a hint of worry. Did his brother want his marefriend to hurt him? Sweet Dreams spoke, "Timidthy, do you wish to say something?" Timidthy gulped. "Not really. It's just I don't like seeing my brother hurt but stab wounds can heal. And I don't want my marefriend to die! I love you both and I'm not sure who'd I'd be able to choose if it came down to it." Timidthy said as he looked down at his hooves in shame. Blood Bones and Sweet Dreams shared looks of concern. What if Timidthy did have to choose at some point? Then one of them would be in trouble. Their thoughts we're interrupted when they heard the wall slide again. This time Bumper and Crepe we're on the platform, their back hooves chained together. They both we're unconscious as the timer set it's self to one minute, and a buzz saw was set in the path of the two colts. The friends shared scared looks as their fellow friend's woke up. "H-Hey what's going on?" Crepe said as his mind came to focus, Bumper looked around. "And where's French Press?" Bumper said and blushed red realizing he'd said that. "Not that I care or anything." Bumper said quickly trying to clarify. Everypony rolled their eye's, just before a deep voice spoke. "Bumper and Crepe this is a matter of whose loyalty is strongest. As you can see you are unable to escape, and there's a buzz saw I'm front of you. You two will either have to give yourselves up or kill another just to save your own skins. But I'll be fair if you two find a way to escape alive, then your free to go. Good luck, it's time to choose. Live or Die." Bumper and Crepe paled, as the timer counter down and the buzz saw started making it's was down to the colts. Bumper tried pulling out of the restrains. But the most he did was give a clear shot to the saw that was now heading towards Crepe. Crepe looked at Bumper and pulled back, Bumper fell on his stomach as the saw now was aimed for his back hooves. Sweet Dreams and Timidthy looked in horror as they saw the hopeless situation. And the timer count down as it hit thirty seconds. Blood Bones was fighting the urge the light his horn up, 'Remember you can't help or you die.' Blood Bones kept repeating in his head. Crepe and Bumper we're now in an ultimate tug of war match as they pulled at the chains that blinded them. The continued counting down from ten and Bumper pulled one final time as Crepe flopped onto his back. Crepe tried to get but Bumper held him down with his magic. Crepe looked at the saw it was only meer inched away, "Bumper please." Crepe squeaked out as tears flooded his eye's. Bumper then gave a small smile, and lit his horn and blasted the chains. Crepe smiled and quickly moved out-of-the-way, just in time to avoid the saws blade. The timer buzzed and everypony held thier breathe. "But I was expecting blood shed! Fine I guess you two get to live. Just move it and join your friend's before you join the dead instead!" the deep voice said clearly annoyed and angry. Bumper and Crepe quickly got off the platform and sat next to Timidthy. Now they had to wait for what they thought to be the last test. But as they waited Crepe hugged Bumper for a second, "Thanks I thought you'd really let me die." Crepe said. Bumper blushed and rolled his eye's, "I only did it because French Press might not want me if I let you die." Bumper said and everypony smirked. Bumper smacked his forehead. Realizing he'd just admit to caring. Either way his friends knew that despite what Bumper said there was a kind-hearted motive to it. "I'm proud of you Bumper. You put your own life at risk. And to be honest for a split second I thought you'd let Crepe meat a painful death. But you proved me wrong and that just shows what a good pony you have become." Timidthy said calmly. Bumper blushed redder and smiled, "Thanks Tim." Bumper said bashfully. The kid's we're interrupted when they heard the wall slide again. And this time French Press and Binkey we're given the freedom to roam. But one big tank stood in the center of them as they both we're asleep. But what shocked everypony the most was the white alicorn that was in the tank. She was asleep as well and her horn was tied on with a white bandage. Timidthy and Blood Bones stared in horror. As they felt like running to their mother but knew they couldn't. French Press and Binkey woke up and immediately noticed Princess Celestia. Princess Celestia started to stir as the deep voice spoke. "SURPRISE! This is the last challenge, you three only have twenty seconds. French Press and Binkey all you have to do to live is leave the princess be. But if you wish to be brave and free her before her untimely death then you will die. You see the tank the princess is in will soon fill with a toxic gas of my own creation. If you break the glass then the room all of you are in will fill with the gas and all of you will die. So just sit back and watch the life drain from your precious princess. Oh and I would like to point out, Celestia, Timidthy, Blood Bones. Luna wanted to apologize for failing her test and y'all as well. So all of this leads to the final question of the day. Will you all live or die?" The ponies we're silent as they let those word's sink in. And finally Timidthy, and Blood Bones burst into tears. The other's hung their head's in defeat as they all slightly mourned and cried. Celestia, with tears in her eye's looked at the timer as it started counting down. Celestia gasped and started bucking the glass it stated cracking and breaking. "Everpony take a deep breath now!" Celestia said urgently, the kid's wiped away their tears. And took deep breaths and held their breathes catching on to what Celestia was trying to do. Blood Bones lit up his horn as he put a force field around them. While Binkey and French Press got down and protected their faces. Celestia with one final buck shattered the glass and sent it flying. Celestia held her breathe and jumped out of the tank just as the toxic gas stated filling the air. Celestia hurriedly grabbed the kid's but stopped. Once she saw that Timidthy and Blood Bones had circles around them. They looked at her with pleading eye's, Celestia forced her horn to spark and undid the spell. She then grabbed her two son's and teleported out of the room. When the hero's teleported they landed of what appeared to be a hallway. Everypony started gulping down air, after they took in the much-needed oxygen. Timidthy began to cry again, "I-I can't believe auntie Luna is gone." Timidthy whimpered. The remaining kid's all started tearing up as well. Celestia levitated the kid's onto her back, and lit her horn up. Her horn started glowing and Celestia followed it until it flashed a blinding light. By a cell that smelled of rotting meat. Celestia placed the kid's down, she lit her horn again and with a flash of bright light. Luna appeared in the center of the cell completely unharmed. Celestia smiled and levitated Luna as she searched for a way out. Meanwhile the figure was angrily looking at the screens. As it was furious for Celestia's quick thinking. It thought for sure that once Celestia found out Luna was dead she'd break down! And when did she learn a retroversion spell!? The figure didn't have anything planed so it would have to improvise. Suddenly before the figure could react the door was busted open by a magical blast. The figure turned around to see Celestia and Luna. And seven livid kid's, Celestia looked at the figure with caution. Luna looked at the figure with fear, while the kid's jumped the figure and held it down. Blood Bones was at the front as he let his horn spark uncontrollably. Dangerously close to the figures face, "Yeah we kinda dragged mom and auntie here. But besides that, it's time to see who you really are!" said Blood Bones as he ripped the cloke of the figure. And everypony gasped, Timidthy, Crepe, and Binkey we're shaking as they all paled. Sweet Dreams's and French Press's eye's glared down at the figure. Bumper paled slightly but tried to look unafraid. And finally Blood Bones stared at the figure with malice in his eye's. As the figure held a disgusted and annoyed look and was reveled to be non other than Bessie Bully. The Start of the BeginningBully stared at the hero's as they all stared at her in mixed shock and anger. Bully smirked, Blood Bones glared. "Ya know your pretty cute for a feather for brain's." Bully said as she walked around Blood Bones and hit his flank with her tail. Blood Bones looked shocked and then growled. Sweet Dreams rolled her eye's in annoyance. "Quit the chit-chat why did you kill innocent ponies?" French Press said anger filling her tone. Bully started giggling until it erupted into a crazed laugh. "To get revenge of course!" Bully shrieked her voice jumping an octave as she stopped laughing. Blood Bones blinked, "Revenge!? Revenge for what!?" Blood Bones screamed as he got closer to reaching the end of his tether. Bully's left eye twitched, "I wanted revenge for what you did to me. After being talked down from twiddle dumb and twiddle dumber! I couldn't show my face at school, everypony though I was a looser! I went to Mrs.Pamper and she laughed in my face saying that "I deserve to suffer for treating Timidthy so badly!" I wrote my parents and they didn't care! After that I was a laughingstock! But one day when I was about to give up I realized something. I realized that since you all ruined my life and reputation. That I would take away something even more valuable your lives." Bully finished her rant as her pupils we're pin pricks. Timidthy very cautiously walked over to her. "Li-Listen Bully I u-understand what it's like. But ki-killing ponies isn't the--" Timidthy said before Bully pinned him to the wall. And screamed. "How could YOU know how I feel! You're a prince, you live in a fancy castle! Your mother and aunt are princesses! So I ask again...how could you know how I feel!?" Sweet Dreams and Celestia took a step closer ready to intervene when the time was right. Timidthy teared up as his body blushed red, "Yo-You honestly think my life is perfect......I-I get bullied constantly. Even since you and Bumper I've never had a moment's peace. I hear ponies calling me a baby and other colts mocking me for being beat by a filly. You don't know the half of it. I wake up with nightmares every night. I worry about what I do and say constantly. Heck! I almost lost my life when I was in diapers by a mad mare who wanted me dead. Since I was made I've been the target of ridicule and pain. So don't come here telling on how you got teased once and your world is falling apart! My confidence and my life has been shattered more times than I can count! So suck your flank cause I've had in worse than anypony." said Timidthy as tears fell from his eye's. Bully's eye's softened for a moment before she growled and drop Timidthy. Bully muttered curses as she regained her evil, twisted composure. Sweet Dreams ran over and hugged Timidthy tightly. Blood Bones got up in Bully's face, "Listen Bully I'm not nice like my brother so how about I get a saw. And cut your head off because that's the only way I'll forgive you." Blood Bones said as his voice started to sound demonic. Bully snorted, "You'll never take me. As long as your wimpy brother says otherwise." Bully said as she glared at Timidthy. Timidthy looked away, Celestia and Luna looked at each other, "Bully your crimes we're unforgivable so as ruler of Equestria I sentence you to death." Celestia said her voice as cold as an arctic wind. Timidthy looked over to Bully who had genuine tears in her eye's. Timidthy sighed, "Mother ca-can't we do something different. Please?" Timidthy whispered but Luna and Celestia shook their head's. The other's had triumphant smiles on their faces. Bully tried running away but Bumper's magic encased her. And they all teleported back to the castle for the execution. Three day's had passed..... Timidthy was by the decapitation device as him and his friend's looked at the crowd. Timidthy felt like bursting into tears. While the other's had either serious or small smirks on their faces. Celestia stood letting her magic keep the blade from falling. While Luna brought out tomatoes for the crowd to throw. Timidthy teleported to the castle dungeons and saw a mal-nourished filly in one of the cages. It was Bully. Bully's eye's we're red from crying, she looked at Timidthy. "Yo-You can't let them do this!" Bully cried. Timidthy winced, "I can't do anything! I wish it could be something different but I've tried everything! Everypony thinks you're a monster and a traitor and that you deserve to die! I want to help, I wish I could but I can't! What am I gonna do? Tell the entire crowd of ponies that you don't deserve this.....when you did it to lot's of other ponies! I-I'm sorry Bessie but there's nothing I can do!" Timidthy said as tears fell from his eye's and he broke down. And Bully started crying as well, the two we're interrupted when a bell went off. Two guard's walked in by the name's of Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog. And opened Bully's cell, Timidthy watched as they put hoofcups on Bully and dragged her away. Timidthy wiped the tears from his eye's and walked back to his place at Bully's execution. Bully was pelted with tomatoes as the crowd shouted names at her. Watch Dog quieted the crowd down and let Luna speak. "Bessie Rosetta Bully. You are here to be executed. For the crimes of: Kidnapping Mental torture Physical torture Imprisoning ponies Killing ponies And treason. Do you have any last word's?" Luna said her voice filled with anger. Bully gulped, "I-I'm sorry." Bully said. Timidthy bit his lip as the crowd booed some more and threw more tomatoes. Shimmer Sword shoved Bully's head into the device and locked it. Blood Bones ran over and Celestia handed him the rope. Bully closed her eye's and sobbed, while Timidthy ducked his head to hide his tears. The other's (crowd included) glared at Bully. Celestia then nodded and Blood Bones let the blade drop. And in that crucial second. A blinding flash happened and by the time it dimmed. Everypony had enough time to see Bully's head as it tumbled to the ground and Luna grabbed it with her magic. But Celestia gasped when she saw Blood Bones's flank. A cutiemark of a pony wearing one of those execution masks was on it. Blood Bones smiled, "Cool your meant to be an executioner!" Bumper said. Timidthy managed a smile for his brother as the crowd cheered. Later that night a party was held for Blood Bones in celebration of him getting his cutiemark. But Timidthy had to slip out for a moment and he teleported himself to the Canterlot dungeons. Once Timidthy got their he looked around and lit his horn, he knocked his hoof on the ground three times. And Bully appeared around the corner, Timidthy smiled, looked around and hugged Bully. Bully smiled, "Thanks Tim for saving me. But did you really have to wait until the blinding flash to do the switch?" Bully asked. Timidthy giggled, "No but even I had to admit you did deserve something." Timidthy said sheepishly. Bully blushed and smirked, "Okay point taken. But how'd you do it? Did you know Blood Bones was gonna get his mark?" Bully asked. Timidthy blushed redder, "No I just calculated what the right time would be to switch you and the doll by how fast the metel blade was going." Timidthy said. Bully smiled, "Listen Timid, when I was being humiliated earlier today I felt something in my mind click. And when I got down here well......" Bully them finished her sentence by showing Timidthy her flank that was now blank. Timidthy looked stunned but relaxed, "I knew that mark wasn't gonna stick." Timidthy said. Bully blushed and let Timidthy incase her in magic. "Ready? This is permanent so I want you to be sure." Timidthy said uncertainty lingering in her voice. Bully smiled warmly, "Yes I'm ready. I want to live a normal life here in Canterlot." Bully said. And Timidthy lit his horn, Bully's body began to glow as her coat turned a blinding bright purple. And her eye's changed into a graceful shape with big eyelashes. And they started changing into crystal pony eyes. Her freckles remained but they turned a light shade of pink and spread onto her muzzle. Her hair turned a pure light blue with steaks of honeydew yellow. Bully felt a huge pain in her forehead as a horn sprouted from it. Finally she felt a tingly sensation in her throat and finally the dandelion yellow aurora disappeared and her hooves softly hit the ground. Bully gave a impressed smile over to the exhausted colt. Timidthy smiled, "I learned the spell from mother along with giving horns and wing's to ponies as well as taking them away. I also changed your voice. Sorry if you wanted to keep it but nopony can recognize you, or else they will kill you and they'll hate me." Timidthy said blushing slightly as he said the last sentence. Bully nodded, "Apologize not needed but accepted. Thank you Timidthy I owe you my life." Bully said as her voice had jumped three octaves and had a british accent from Timidthy's spell. Timidthy shook his head, "No you don't. But we're also going to have to change your name." Timidthy said. Bully's ears went back but knew she couldn't go by her own name. She sighed and said, "How about Angel?" Bully said. Timidthy snickered, Bully blushed. "I get it I was a jerk and a psychopath. Let's see if you can come up with anything better?" Bully said. Timidthy blushed slightly but spoke, "How about...... Prado Angélico?" Timidthy said. Bully blushed red, "Angelic Meadow? How'd you come up with that? And when did you learn spanish?" Bully questioned. Timidthy blushed and looked away, "It just came at the top of my head and I had to read a physiology book in spanish once. So.....I picked up on it." Timidthy said shyly, Bully smiled. "Well I like it and thanks again I can't wait to be a normal filly." Bully said with relief in her tone. Timidthy smiled and hugged Bully, "Well I thought you would Angélico." Timidthy said sweetly as he and the now Angelic Meadow got up and took the long way back to the castle.
Acid DipBlood Bones was fixing his room up as it was right next to his brother's room: Timidthy. Blood Bones room had a ruby-red floor that shimmered every time the light turned on. The wall was covered in flames as red, black, and purple blended perfectly together. He had a big bed with plenty of fluffy blankets on it. Blood Bones didn't want to admit it but he needed many blankets in his sleep to wrap around in. His bed also had miniature stuffed pony dolls of the most recent bad guy's and criminals that had hurt Timidthy. Some of them we're torn and had their stuffing ripped out, if you'd asked Blood Bones he'd say he liked to beat and destroy thing's. But what he really had those dolls for was he'd often execute them (after giving them a fair trial of course) he'd then celebrate by burning the doll and he'd feel happy. He cared about Timidthy and anypony that hurt him he hated, and those wanted to severely hurt (or kill). Blood Bones looked at his flank and it was blank, he sighed. Ever since he'd been brought back the mark had disappeared as if it was never truly his. Blood Bones smiled slightly and jumped on the bed as he got ready to go to sleep. Meanwhile Timidthy was lying on his own bed as he breathed in and out peacefully. It had been three months since Blood Bones had become his brother and he loved the lack of danger and adventure that hadn't happened. Timidthy smiled as he thought of his new brother Blood Bones, he had noticed Blood Bones's cutiemark had just vanished. And he didn't tell Blood Bones but he had changed drastically from just thinking of himself and wanting to kill ponies for no reason but to pleasure himself. To wanting to hurt or kill ponies because of the terrible, horrible, and horrific deeds they did. Especially when Timidthy was involved, Blood Bones would jump into action and weigh whether the pony deserved to live. It slightly scared Timidthy that his brother still wanted to inflict harm onto ponies but at least hurting bad ponies would help improve the world. Timidthy blushed deep red and got up from his bed, he had heard that ponies had gone missing and would be found dead. Timidthy gulped, he had almost forgotten about that and he hoped the pony who was doing the crimes would soon be caught. But that still didn't help with his nerves, he knew it was silly but Timidthy grabbed the pillow he'd gotten from Sweet Dreams for his birthday and walked to his brother's room. Hour's later the streets of Canterlot we're empty as they all slept in their beds safe.....at the moment. The view then slowly moved down to the Canterlot dungeons as a zerbra by the name of Zecora was hung by the ceiling and side's of the walls by chains. That held her head, front hooves and back hooves. In front of Zecora was a small figure in a chair as it wore a black cloke hiding its face, mane, and tail perfectly. Zecora woke up as her eye's slowly fluttered open, while her eye's adjusted to the darkness she immediately noticed the small figure. "Mystery pony, I must ask. Are you the one who's left me in these chains metal grasp?" Zecora said cautiously as she tried to figure out who the pony was. The figure smiled and banged her front hoof on the chair and a timer appeared in front of Zecora and it read two minutes. As the figure did that, a vat of yellow liquid bubbled to life as it was held in a black caldron underneath Zecora her mouth just barely over it. Zecora raised an eyebrow, the figure spoke, its voice deep and masculine. "Zecora you have two minutes to escape, as you can see a vat full of acid is underneath you. And the chains are holding you above it, if you fail to escape then the chains will pull your limbs off painfully. And hopefully your head will be included, for after the chains leave your body then you will be dunked into the acid. So it's time to make your choice Zecora. Live or Die?" Before Zecora had time to react the timer started counting down, Zecora gasped as she yanked at the chains. She did it for a full minute before realizing she didn't have much time left. She looked at the acid and dipped her tail in the acid and swung it against her left and right chains that held her back hooves. Her tail (along with the chains) sizzled, Zecora winced slightly and pulled as the chains that held her back hooves gave out and Zecora desperately held her back hooves in. In order to prevent her hooves from getting eaten by the acid. Zecora looked the timer and it read thirty seconds, Zecora paled and gasped. She then (hurriedly) flipped herself so a bit of her mane could get in the acid. Zecora was just about to flip back up and rub the acid on the chains that held her front hooves. Until Zecora heard a loud buzz and looked at the timer. It read zero, Zecora started crying as the chains pulled, her bones made sickening crunches and pop's. Zecora screamed and the chains ripped her front hooves off and fell into the acid bellow. Zecora screamed a blood curdling scream as she thrashed around in the acid and it turned red from her blood. Soon her body stopped moving and the life in her died, the figure smiled evilly. Unfazed by the gore and blood, it then laughed evilly. And said, "Looks like Zecora chose to die." As the view slowly rose back to the streets of Canterlot. Everything was silent as the ponies we're unknown to the loss of a life right underneath them.
Too CloseThe news of Zecora's disappearance had spread like wildfire all throughout Equestria. And so far Timidthy was handling it as well as you'd expect. "She's gone! And she'll wind up dead, I know it! Poor Zecora what type of monstrous pony would take a full-grown innocent mare!" Timidthy cried, as him and his friend's we're sitting in the dinning room. Bumper snorted, "Just look at your brother he's done worse." Bumper said. Timidthy and Blood Bones glared at him, "Oh really and how was humiliating my brother any different?" Blood Bones said. Bumps blushed as his eye's glossed over with tears. "Says the pony who tried to take over Equestria and kill my pet!" Bumper said his voice just barely cracking. Blood Bones blushed and growled as he opened his mouth. But Timidthy put his hoof over his mouth and signalled him to just drop it. French Press tsked and shook her head, "Thumpy get over it he's good now and it helps that Timidthy is his brother and can keep him under the radar." French Press said. Bumper blushed at the use of his pet name and muttered a small, "Fine." Sweet Dreams snickered, while Crepe snorted and Binkey whispered a small. "Dawww." Blood Bones smirked slightly, Timidthy sighed as his ears drew back. He cleared his throat grabbing everypony's attention. "Guy's, we have to do something. Zecora isn't the first pony to go missing........." Timidthy said muttering the last part. Blood Bones's ears went back and he tried sinking into his seat. To avoid any glares and most importantly hide his face. That was going green. He may not mind blood and gore but just the thought of an innocent pony dying the ways the other's had went, made him sick. The kid's paled and looked at Timidthy and Blood Bones with worry. They had heard more ponies before Zecora had went missing. But the haden' t known they died, they hadn't known both stories we're connected. And there parents had made sure to hide the newspapers from them. Timidthy and Blood Bones had guessed they didn't know the full truth. But now they knew for sure, Timidthy then teleported three newspaper's in front of them. Timidthy looked away from the pictures. As his friends saw the gruesome death's that had been photographed. Blood Bones hid his face entirely, the other's gasped and grew green as well. Timidthy quickly teleported the pictures away. And replaced them with glasses of bubbling soda. The friend's quickly grabbed the glasses and sucked the constants down. To avoid vomiting on the castle floor, or worse yet on the table. Blood Bones would've found it humorous. If it werent for the fact he was trying to fight the wave of nausea he was experiencing. Timidthy felt his stomach twist and turn as his face flushed red. He took a deep breath and spoke as his friend's (and brother) managed to compose themselves. "We have to figure out who this sick, corrupted criminal is and lock them away!" Timidthy said, and the kid's cheered until a deep raspy voice spoke. "Oh heck no! That's the last thing you kid's are doing!" The kid's jumped and turned around to see Shimmer Sword. (One of the royal guard's) with an irritated yet concerned look on his face. Blood Bones and Bumper got up to protest but they sat back down. As they saw Watch Dog (another royal guard) walk in with a grim and serious expression on his face. "That's right, you kid's are the future of Equestria. And recently you have proven to shine bright. But that light will fade if you go digging in the wrong places. You are to not go looking for the mystery mass murderer or else we will have to tell Celestia and your parent's." Watch Dog said sternly, Blood Bones was the only one who had the guts to speak up. "But ponies are dying and even the one's who live are suffering mentally and physically!" The guard's rolled their eye's. And Watch Dog picked the two princes up while Shimmer Sword picked their friend's up. "Don't you dare do it." said Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog. The kid's didn't even try escaping the guard's grasp. As they walked them to their respected homes. As Shimmer Sword returned to the castle he saw Watch Dog shut Blood Bones's room door. He looked exhausted and said to his partner, "The two wouldn't go to sleep they kept screaming at me that everypony was in danger and something had to be done." Watch Dog said. Shimmer Sword nodded solemnly, "Same they all wouldn't shut up, their parent's each and every one of them asked me to put a shield over their beds. If the killer tried to get them. It's set up with alarms and everything and doesnt disappear until they get out of bed. And reappears when they get into bed." Shimmer Sword said as Watch Dog noticed the bags under his eye's. Watch Dog sighed and walked with Shimmer Sword, until they saw a small figure. The two gasped and started charging after the figure. The last thing the two guard's saw was the figure's smile. As that both felt sleepy and woozy and they passed out and everything went black. The two guard's woke up tied together as they tried to move they both winced in pain. As they looked at the ropes they realized (to their horror) that they we're tied with barbed wire. And they looked around, they saw that there was a string of it trailing off somewhere unknown. As they looked around they saw they we're in shed of some kind. They then heard a masculine voice, "Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog, it's your turn to choose. The end of the wire is close to an open flame, which yours truly will light it. And you will burn along with the shed." said the deep voice. Shimmer Sword growled, "You can't do this! Let us go!" Watch Dog said. The deep voice growled and considered to burn them anyway, "Anyway, you only have one minute to make a very delicate choice. It's been thrown around that you two are dating and well I have to agree with them. So here's what you have to do, tell each other how you really feel and that's it! You live, but if you can't or won't you will die a painful death. Now make your choice soldiers, live or die." the deep voice finished. As a clock started counting down from one minute above the guard's. The guard's faces we're blushed a deep shade of red as they stared at the clock with fear. The two remained silent too afraid to speak as they weighed their choices. The answer seemed simple. (But if you've even been in love especially with the same-sex. You'd probably be afraid to speak as well) just tell each other how they feel, simple. But as the saying goes easier said then done, the guard's stared at the clock and it read twenty seconds. Watch Dog's lip trembled as he shut his eye's and spoke, "I love you man with all my heart! I know it's not exactly normal to be in love with your same-sex but I do!" Watch Dog said as his face went redder. Shimmer Sword blushed redder as well, he looked at the clock as it then read ten seconds. Shimmer Sword felt his eye's tear up as the clock read five seconds. Watch Dog started crying as it read two seconds, Shimmer Sword caved. "I love you too and I hope we can be more than friends!" Shimmer Sword cried just as the clock stopped at one second. There was slow clapping as the figure came out of the shadows. (Still wearing its trademark cloke) and undid the barbed wire. The two stallions fell into a heap relieved to have their lives. And started sobbing having been mentally scared. The figure smiled evilly, "You know some ponies don't value thier lives. But not you too......not anymore." the figure said. As it laughed evilly and left, it opened the shed door and walked out. As the moon shined through the door the moon light moved past the stallions. And landed on a piece of paper and the paper had a list of ponies names on it. On the list, there read the name's: Celestia and Luna.
The Death of A StarCelestia and Luna (with permission of their parent's) had gathered up Timidthy's friends and now had them in her private study. Celestia had heard from Watch Dog and Shimmer Sword about their kidnapping. And it scared her that such a small figure could somehow sneak into the castle. Knock out two royal guard's and threaten their lives without slipping up and revealing themselves by mistake. It just didn't seem possible! Timidthy was hugging his brother tightly, Blood Bones was blushing madly. (Though it was hard to tell) as he hugged back, Sweet Dreams was wrapping her wing around Timidthy. French Press and Bumper we're holding each other's hooves and finally Crepe was biting his hooves. While Binkey was sucking on one of his pacifiers, Watch Dog and Blood Bones sat we're watching the kid's. As they secretly wrapped their tails around the other one's, the figure may have threatened their lives but now they we're a couple. Luna and Celestia we're in a royal conference talking to other kingdom leader's about what they we're going to do and how they we're going to save their subject's. The group waited for hour's until it became the time for the moon to have raised. But the sun was still up and that was worrying, Timidthy and Blood Bones looked at the sun. And lit up their horns, soon the sun became surrounded in blood-red and dandelion yellow magic. Their horns we're sparking madly as the two young alicorns struggled to lower the sun. The other's watched in amazement as the two lowered the sun very slowly, no sooner did they do that the moon rose. Blood Bones and Timidthy's magic died as all their horn did was spark and sputtered. Their eye's we're pale as they fell over from exhaustion, Crepe and Binkey helped the two up and moved them onto Celestia's bed. The two landed on the bed in a heap and tried to fall asleep and cancel out the worry in their mind's for their mother and aunt. The kid's looked at the guard's with fear and uncertainty in their eye's. "Whe-Where's Celestia and Luna?" French Press squeaked out, the guard's looked at the kid's and put them into the bed. "Don't worry I'm sure their fine." Watch Dog said and Shimmer Sword pulled out a magical laser like sword. And held the sword in one hoof as he walked around the bed until it closed into a complete circle. The circle glowed as a large force field surrounded the bed. The kid's stared in amazement, "Go to sleep. Everything will be fine in morning." Shimmer Sword said and the two watched as the kid's got under the covers and fell asleep. As soon as they all went to sleep the guard's quickly ran out of the room. And got all the guard's to look around for princess Celestia and Luna. Unfortunately the princesses weren't going to be found in the castle. Luna woke up in what looked to be a dungeon she stood in the center of it as a spotlight shone on her. "Princess Luna, your know to be the princess of the moon. Or how some ponies remember you as Nightmare Moon. You have one minute to escape the cell you're in, if you fail to. A bomb will go off in your cell splattering you all over the wall's. I apologize your sister couldn't join but she's in another cell. Make your choice Luna. Live or Die." a deep voice said as it echoed across the wall's. And a timer appeared in front of Luna and it counted down from one minute. Luna gasped, she tried activating her magic but her horn wouldn't respond. She ran to the edge of the cell and bucked the bars but they could budge. Luna looked around the room and saw a file on the floor and quickly started sawing the bars. She had managed to weaken five of the bars as she stared at the timer, it read thirty seconds. Luna started hyperventilating as she bucked the bar's. She kept going until the timer read ten seconds, Luna broke down and stared sobbing as put her back against bars. "I-I'm sorry sister." Luna said as she stared at the timer, it read three seconds. "I-I'm sorry Timidthy and Blood Bones's." she whispered just as the timer buzzed and a bomb went off. And Luna's flesh, and internal organs got spattered on the walls. A deep voice laughed evilly, "Looks like Luna chose to die." it said as disappeared to Celestia's cell. Celestia had been startled awake by a loud boom, and she was trying to figure out where she was. But it was hard to do so with a blindfold over her eye's, "Princess Sun Butt, you are known to be the princess of the sun. Today your going to be tested your cell is wide open all you have to do is walk out. But be careful, there might be some obstacles in the way. You have thirty seconds to get out or.....well let's just say you will be flatter then a pancake." said a deep voice. The timer stated to count down as Celestia felt her heart race. As she tried to light her horn to get the blindfold off, but her horn wouldn't respond because it had been sawed off. It lied on the floor a few feet from Celestia but unfortunately (and fortunately based on how you see it) Celestia gave up and used her sense of direction to find the door as she hurriedly made a path straight towards it. The timer read fifteen seconds just as Celestia was about to get out of the cell. Suddenly Celestia felt indescribable pain shoot through her back hoof. If Celestia hadn't been blindfolded shed had seen that she'd sprung a beartrap and it was now tearing at her flesh and daring to snap the bone inside. The timer read five seconds as Celestia kept going and just as she got out of the cell. The timer buzzed and the wall's slammed shut. Meanwhile the figure was in a room filled with tv screens. It had been slightly disappointed that Celestia had lived. But Luna's death was entertaining, the figure then looked at one of the screens. And it had Timidthy, Sweet Dreams, French Press, Bumper, Crepe, Blood Bones, and Binkey we're all sleeping in Celestia's bed. It smiled evilly as it pressed a button and the bed the kid's we're in fell apart and the kids fell down a tunnel that was underneath the bed. It laughed evilly, now the real fun was about to begin.
Two For OneTimidthy woke up his eye's felt heavy and weak, his heart started thumping as he saw he was in a well. Timidthy looked up and saw his brother hanging over well. Timidthy strained his eye's and saw that he was breathing, Timidthy looked at his brother. He still had his bat-like wing's and his horn, he didn't have any cuts or bruises. He was fine, Timidthy felt his forehead and felt his horn was still there and looked at his wing's. His wing's we're fine, though they we're tied to his side's they looked fine. Timidthy felt pain in his lower admin but before he could worry some more he saw Blood Bones stir awake. Blood Bones looked around, "Blood Bones! Down here!" Timidthy cried. Blood Bones looked down and gave a relieved smile. Blood Bones then gave an uncomfortable and pained look, "You too huh?" Timidthy said as he blushed slightly. Blood Bones gave a sheepish smile, Blood Bones lit up his horn and lifted Timidthy out of the well. Once Timidthy hit solid ground he undid the ropes that hung Blood Bones and put Blood Bones on the ground. The two brother's looked to see they we're in a cottage of some sort the place was comforting to say the least. "Glad to see you two got out of your predicaments." a deep voice said, Timidthy jumped and hugged Blood Bones. "Anyway, you and your friend's will participate in a test of sorts. Your's is easy just sit and do nothing. But here's the catch you two will have to watch your friend's as they live or die. If you two try to leave and help your friend's or leave for the little colts room. You will die." the deep voice continued, Timidthy and Blood Bones blushed slightly. While their tails flickered nervously, suddenly a blue circle surrounded the brother's. Blood Bones growled slightly and got ready to step from the circle. "You might not want to do that, this is where leaving will cause your downfall. These circles will electrocute you if you put more than a hoof out of it. So good luck. It's your choice, live or die." the deep voice finished. Timidthy started crying, while Blood Bones had a furious look on his face. Then the wall turned. As Timidthy and Blood Bones saw Sweet Dreams unconscious on a platform with a timer above it. Their was a strange metal helmet like contraption on her head. Soon Sweet Dreams soon woke up and she felt joy as she saw Timidthy and Blood Bones. But she quickly realized that they we're upset, she opened her mouth to ask what was wrong. Unfortunately she was quickly answered, "Sweet Dreams this challenge will get you and your victim to step out of your comfort zones. The helmet on your head is connected to the timer that is set for five minutes. This helmet when the timer goes off will drive sharp knives into your head." said the voice. Sweet Dreams paled, Timidthy gasped. Blood Bones eye's filled with horror, "The key to it is in one of your friend's bladders. You will either have to cut into them and find the key or make them wet themselves to get the key. Either way it's gonna be entertaining for me." the figure continued. By then Sweet Dreams's jaw had dropped and her face was flushed red. Timidthy's body was completely red, and Blood Bones back legs we're shaking. "So I wish you three the best of luck. Sweet Dreams it's time to make your choice. Live or Die." The circles around Blood Bones and Timidthy disappeared. As the timer started to count down. Sweet Dreams snapped out of her daze and looked at the two colts, this was highly inappropriate. Sweet Dreams felt beads of sweat go down her forehead. Sweet Dreams grabbed a knife that was beside her and hesitantly walked in between the two colts. She looked at the timer it read four minutes, Timidthy blushed redder and gulped. "Sw-Sweet Dreams, please put the knife down." Timidthy said with fear in his voice. Sweet Dreams looked at Timidthy, "I'll only have to do it if you two refuse to cooperate. I won't look if you two find it necessary but I don't want to die!" Sweet Dreams said, her voice quivering. Blood Bones bit his lip, "Fi-Fine but we never speak of this." Blood Bones said. Sweet Dreams nodded and walked away from the colts and turned around. She looked at the clock that now read three minutes, Blood Bones and Timidthy looked at the clock. As they felt an uncomfortable warm sensation come from their bladders. And spread around them. As the two ran out of liquids in their bladder. Blood Bones yelped in pain as he felt something hard squeeze through his bladder. Sweet Dreams turned around and saw the key, she then ran over as her mind raced trying to figure out how to get the key out. Sweet Dreams looked at the timer and her heart skipped a beat she only had two minutes left! Timidthy was biting his lip hard while Blood Bones looked at her with fear. "I-I'm sorry!" Sweet Dreams cried as she grabbed at the key, Blood Bones eye's widened in shock. "Sweet Dreams don't tell me your--" said Timidthy fearfully. Just before he was cut off when Sweet Dreams pulled and Blood Bones screamed in pain. Sweet Dreams pulled harder and harder but the key wouldn't come out. By then Blood Bones was crying, Timidthy face was blushed deep red as he covered his ears. Sweet Dreams looked at the timer again and saw that only one minute was left. Sweet Dreams was desperate as she grabbed the knife she had before. Timidthy looked away knowing thing's we're going to get worse. Blood Bones screamed, "No! Don't do it!" Sweet Dreams ignored his objections as she sliced at his bladder. Blood Bones screamed in agony, Sweet Dreams stopped and threw the knife seat that had blood and urine in it. She then pulled at the key one more time with as much strength as she could muster. Blood Bones screamed again as the key was pulled out and Sweet Dreams hit the edge of the platform. She looked at her hooves, she smiled as she saw the key in her hooves. Sweet Dreams stared at the timer and it read twenty-five seconds. Sweet Dreams screamed, she then jammed the key onto the key hole of her helmet. Timidthy stared between Sweet Dreams and the timer with ever-growing worry. Blood Bones clutched his bladder as he prayed that Sweet Dreams would make it. The timer ticked down from five, Sweet Dreams finally undid the lock and the helmet fell from her head. The timer stopped at three seconds and the three friends sighed in relief. "Looks like you live Sweet Dreams. Now you can either leave or join your friend's." said the deep voice. Sweet Dreams then tucked her tail underneath her. And sat in between Timidthy and Blood Bones as the circles surrounded them one more. Meanwhile the entire kingdom was in panic. Celestia and Luna we're missing and now seven kid's we're as well! Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog sent out a full grid search as all the castle staff and everypony was on the lookout. And all everypony could do was search and hope that the missing ponies we're okay.
RevealedAs the three friend's waited for the next trial they waited in awkward silence. Timidthy finally spoke up, "U-Um.......Sweet Dreams.......I just wanted to say I'm glad your alive. But of you had to would you have hurt Blood Bones even more?" Timidthy said stating his word's very cautiously. Blood Bones looked at Sweet Dreams with lingering fear. While Sweet Dreams blushed deep red. "No, of course not! Blood Bones is your brother and if I had to do more harm I'd simply give my last word's and let that helmet take my life!" Sweet Dreams said as she pointed at the helmet with disgust. Blood Bones smiled slightly but Timidthy's ears ducked down. As he tried to give his best pleased smile. Blood Bones looked at Timidthy with a hint of worry. Did his brother want his marefriend to hurt him? Sweet Dreams spoke, "Timidthy, do you wish to say something?" Timidthy gulped. "Not really. It's just I don't like seeing my brother hurt but stab wounds can heal. And I don't want my marefriend to die! I love you both and I'm not sure who'd I'd be able to choose if it came down to it." Timidthy said as he looked down at his hooves in shame. Blood Bones and Sweet Dreams shared looks of concern. What if Timidthy did have to choose at some point? Then one of them would be in trouble. Their thoughts we're interrupted when they heard the wall slide again. This time Bumper and Crepe we're on the platform, their back hooves chained together. They both we're unconscious as the timer set it's self to one minute, and a buzz saw was set in the path of the two colts. The friends shared scared looks as their fellow friend's woke up. "H-Hey what's going on?" Crepe said as his mind came to focus, Bumper looked around. "And where's French Press?" Bumper said and blushed red realizing he'd said that. "Not that I care or anything." Bumper said quickly trying to clarify. Everypony rolled their eye's, just before a deep voice spoke. "Bumper and Crepe this is a matter of whose loyalty is strongest. As you can see you are unable to escape, and there's a buzz saw I'm front of you. You two will either have to give yourselves up or kill another just to save your own skins. But I'll be fair if you two find a way to escape alive, then your free to go. Good luck, it's time to choose. Live or Die." Bumper and Crepe paled, as the timer counter down and the buzz saw started making it's was down to the colts. Bumper tried pulling out of the restrains. But the most he did was give a clear shot to the saw that was now heading towards Crepe. Crepe looked at Bumper and pulled back, Bumper fell on his stomach as the saw now was aimed for his back hooves. Sweet Dreams and Timidthy looked in horror as they saw the hopeless situation. And the timer count down as it hit thirty seconds. Blood Bones was fighting the urge the light his horn up, 'Remember you can't help or you die.' Blood Bones kept repeating in his head. Crepe and Bumper we're now in an ultimate tug of war match as they pulled at the chains that blinded them. The continued counting down from ten and Bumper pulled one final time as Crepe flopped onto his back. Crepe tried to get but Bumper held him down with his magic. Crepe looked at the saw it was only meer inched away, "Bumper please." Crepe squeaked out as tears flooded his eye's. Bumper then gave a small smile, and lit his horn and blasted the chains. Crepe smiled and quickly moved out-of-the-way, just in time to avoid the saws blade. The timer buzzed and everypony held thier breathe. "But I was expecting blood shed! Fine I guess you two get to live. Just move it and join your friend's before you join the dead instead!" the deep voice said clearly annoyed and angry. Bumper and Crepe quickly got off the platform and sat next to Timidthy. Now they had to wait for what they thought to be the last test. But as they waited Crepe hugged Bumper for a second, "Thanks I thought you'd really let me die." Crepe said. Bumper blushed and rolled his eye's, "I only did it because French Press might not want me if I let you die." Bumper said and everypony smirked. Bumper smacked his forehead. Realizing he'd just admit to caring. Either way his friends knew that despite what Bumper said there was a kind-hearted motive to it. "I'm proud of you Bumper. You put your own life at risk. And to be honest for a split second I thought you'd let Crepe meat a painful death. But you proved me wrong and that just shows what a good pony you have become." Timidthy said calmly. Bumper blushed redder and smiled, "Thanks Tim." Bumper said bashfully. The kid's we're interrupted when they heard the wall slide again. And this time French Press and Binkey we're given the freedom to roam. But one big tank stood in the center of them as they both we're asleep. But what shocked everypony the most was the white alicorn that was in the tank. She was asleep as well and her horn was tied on with a white bandage. Timidthy and Blood Bones stared in horror. As they felt like running to their mother but knew they couldn't. French Press and Binkey woke up and immediately noticed Princess Celestia. Princess Celestia started to stir as the deep voice spoke. "SURPRISE! This is the last challenge, you three only have twenty seconds. French Press and Binkey all you have to do to live is leave the princess be. But if you wish to be brave and free her before her untimely death then you will die. You see the tank the princess is in will soon fill with a toxic gas of my own creation. If you break the glass then the room all of you are in will fill with the gas and all of you will die. So just sit back and watch the life drain from your precious princess. Oh and I would like to point out, Celestia, Timidthy, Blood Bones. Luna wanted to apologize for failing her test and y'all as well. So all of this leads to the final question of the day. Will you all live or die?" The ponies we're silent as they let those word's sink in. And finally Timidthy, and Blood Bones burst into tears. The other's hung their head's in defeat as they all slightly mourned and cried. Celestia, with tears in her eye's looked at the timer as it started counting down. Celestia gasped and started bucking the glass it stated cracking and breaking. "Everpony take a deep breath now!" Celestia said urgently, the kid's wiped away their tears. And took deep breaths and held their breathes catching on to what Celestia was trying to do. Blood Bones lit up his horn as he put a force field around them. While Binkey and French Press got down and protected their faces. Celestia with one final buck shattered the glass and sent it flying. Celestia held her breathe and jumped out of the tank just as the toxic gas stated filling the air. Celestia hurriedly grabbed the kid's but stopped. Once she saw that Timidthy and Blood Bones had circles around them. They looked at her with pleading eye's, Celestia forced her horn to spark and undid the spell. She then grabbed her two son's and teleported out of the room. When the hero's teleported they landed of what appeared to be a hallway. Everypony started gulping down air, after they took in the much-needed oxygen. Timidthy began to cry again, "I-I can't believe auntie Luna is gone." Timidthy whimpered. The remaining kid's all started tearing up as well. Celestia levitated the kid's onto her back, and lit her horn up. Her horn started glowing and Celestia followed it until it flashed a blinding light. By a cell that smelled of rotting meat. Celestia placed the kid's down, she lit her horn again and with a flash of bright light. Luna appeared in the center of the cell completely unharmed. Celestia smiled and levitated Luna as she searched for a way out. Meanwhile the figure was angrily looking at the screens. As it was furious for Celestia's quick thinking. It thought for sure that once Celestia found out Luna was dead she'd break down! And when did she learn a retroversion spell!? The figure didn't have anything planed so it would have to improvise. Suddenly before the figure could react the door was busted open by a magical blast. The figure turned around to see Celestia and Luna. And seven livid kid's, Celestia looked at the figure with caution. Luna looked at the figure with fear, while the kid's jumped the figure and held it down. Blood Bones was at the front as he let his horn spark uncontrollably. Dangerously close to the figures face, "Yeah we kinda dragged mom and auntie here. But besides that, it's time to see who you really are!" said Blood Bones as he ripped the cloke of the figure. And everypony gasped, Timidthy, Crepe, and Binkey we're shaking as they all paled. Sweet Dreams's and French Press's eye's glared down at the figure. Bumper paled slightly but tried to look unafraid. And finally Blood Bones stared at the figure with malice in his eye's. As the figure held a disgusted and annoyed look and was reveled to be non other than Bessie Bully.
The Start of the BeginningBully stared at the hero's as they all stared at her in mixed shock and anger. Bully smirked, Blood Bones glared. "Ya know your pretty cute for a feather for brain's." Bully said as she walked around Blood Bones and hit his flank with her tail. Blood Bones looked shocked and then growled. Sweet Dreams rolled her eye's in annoyance. "Quit the chit-chat why did you kill innocent ponies?" French Press said anger filling her tone. Bully started giggling until it erupted into a crazed laugh. "To get revenge of course!" Bully shrieked her voice jumping an octave as she stopped laughing. Blood Bones blinked, "Revenge!? Revenge for what!?" Blood Bones screamed as he got closer to reaching the end of his tether. Bully's left eye twitched, "I wanted revenge for what you did to me. After being talked down from twiddle dumb and twiddle dumber! I couldn't show my face at school, everypony though I was a looser! I went to Mrs.Pamper and she laughed in my face saying that "I deserve to suffer for treating Timidthy so badly!" I wrote my parents and they didn't care! After that I was a laughingstock! But one day when I was about to give up I realized something. I realized that since you all ruined my life and reputation. That I would take away something even more valuable your lives." Bully finished her rant as her pupils we're pin pricks. Timidthy very cautiously walked over to her. "Li-Listen Bully I u-understand what it's like. But ki-killing ponies isn't the--" Timidthy said before Bully pinned him to the wall. And screamed. "How could YOU know how I feel! You're a prince, you live in a fancy castle! Your mother and aunt are princesses! So I ask again...how could you know how I feel!?" Sweet Dreams and Celestia took a step closer ready to intervene when the time was right. Timidthy teared up as his body blushed red, "Yo-You honestly think my life is perfect......I-I get bullied constantly. Even since you and Bumper I've never had a moment's peace. I hear ponies calling me a baby and other colts mocking me for being beat by a filly. You don't know the half of it. I wake up with nightmares every night. I worry about what I do and say constantly. Heck! I almost lost my life when I was in diapers by a mad mare who wanted me dead. Since I was made I've been the target of ridicule and pain. So don't come here telling on how you got teased once and your world is falling apart! My confidence and my life has been shattered more times than I can count! So suck your flank cause I've had in worse than anypony." said Timidthy as tears fell from his eye's. Bully's eye's softened for a moment before she growled and drop Timidthy. Bully muttered curses as she regained her evil, twisted composure. Sweet Dreams ran over and hugged Timidthy tightly. Blood Bones got up in Bully's face, "Listen Bully I'm not nice like my brother so how about I get a saw. And cut your head off because that's the only way I'll forgive you." Blood Bones said as his voice started to sound demonic. Bully snorted, "You'll never take me. As long as your wimpy brother says otherwise." Bully said as she glared at Timidthy. Timidthy looked away, Celestia and Luna looked at each other, "Bully your crimes we're unforgivable so as ruler of Equestria I sentence you to death." Celestia said her voice as cold as an arctic wind. Timidthy looked over to Bully who had genuine tears in her eye's. Timidthy sighed, "Mother ca-can't we do something different. Please?" Timidthy whispered but Luna and Celestia shook their head's. The other's had triumphant smiles on their faces. Bully tried running away but Bumper's magic encased her. And they all teleported back to the castle for the execution. Three day's had passed..... Timidthy was by the decapitation device as him and his friend's looked at the crowd. Timidthy felt like bursting into tears. While the other's had either serious or small smirks on their faces. Celestia stood letting her magic keep the blade from falling. While Luna brought out tomatoes for the crowd to throw. Timidthy teleported to the castle dungeons and saw a mal-nourished filly in one of the cages. It was Bully. Bully's eye's we're red from crying, she looked at Timidthy. "Yo-You can't let them do this!" Bully cried. Timidthy winced, "I can't do anything! I wish it could be something different but I've tried everything! Everypony thinks you're a monster and a traitor and that you deserve to die! I want to help, I wish I could but I can't! What am I gonna do? Tell the entire crowd of ponies that you don't deserve this.....when you did it to lot's of other ponies! I-I'm sorry Bessie but there's nothing I can do!" Timidthy said as tears fell from his eye's and he broke down. And Bully started crying as well, the two we're interrupted when a bell went off. Two guard's walked in by the name's of Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog. And opened Bully's cell, Timidthy watched as they put hoofcups on Bully and dragged her away. Timidthy wiped the tears from his eye's and walked back to his place at Bully's execution. Bully was pelted with tomatoes as the crowd shouted names at her. Watch Dog quieted the crowd down and let Luna speak. "Bessie Rosetta Bully. You are here to be executed. For the crimes of: Kidnapping Mental torture Physical torture Imprisoning ponies Killing ponies And treason. Do you have any last word's?" Luna said her voice filled with anger. Bully gulped, "I-I'm sorry." Bully said. Timidthy bit his lip as the crowd booed some more and threw more tomatoes. Shimmer Sword shoved Bully's head into the device and locked it. Blood Bones ran over and Celestia handed him the rope. Bully closed her eye's and sobbed, while Timidthy ducked his head to hide his tears. The other's (crowd included) glared at Bully. Celestia then nodded and Blood Bones let the blade drop. And in that crucial second. A blinding flash happened and by the time it dimmed. Everypony had enough time to see Bully's head as it tumbled to the ground and Luna grabbed it with her magic. But Celestia gasped when she saw Blood Bones's flank. A cutiemark of a pony wearing one of those execution masks was on it. Blood Bones smiled, "Cool your meant to be an executioner!" Bumper said. Timidthy managed a smile for his brother as the crowd cheered. Later that night a party was held for Blood Bones in celebration of him getting his cutiemark. But Timidthy had to slip out for a moment and he teleported himself to the Canterlot dungeons. Once Timidthy got their he looked around and lit his horn, he knocked his hoof on the ground three times. And Bully appeared around the corner, Timidthy smiled, looked around and hugged Bully. Bully smiled, "Thanks Tim for saving me. But did you really have to wait until the blinding flash to do the switch?" Bully asked. Timidthy giggled, "No but even I had to admit you did deserve something." Timidthy said sheepishly. Bully blushed and smirked, "Okay point taken. But how'd you do it? Did you know Blood Bones was gonna get his mark?" Bully asked. Timidthy blushed redder, "No I just calculated what the right time would be to switch you and the doll by how fast the metel blade was going." Timidthy said. Bully smiled, "Listen Timid, when I was being humiliated earlier today I felt something in my mind click. And when I got down here well......" Bully them finished her sentence by showing Timidthy her flank that was now blank. Timidthy looked stunned but relaxed, "I knew that mark wasn't gonna stick." Timidthy said. Bully blushed and let Timidthy incase her in magic. "Ready? This is permanent so I want you to be sure." Timidthy said uncertainty lingering in her voice. Bully smiled warmly, "Yes I'm ready. I want to live a normal life here in Canterlot." Bully said. And Timidthy lit his horn, Bully's body began to glow as her coat turned a blinding bright purple. And her eye's changed into a graceful shape with big eyelashes. And they started changing into crystal pony eyes. Her freckles remained but they turned a light shade of pink and spread onto her muzzle. Her hair turned a pure light blue with steaks of honeydew yellow. Bully felt a huge pain in her forehead as a horn sprouted from it. Finally she felt a tingly sensation in her throat and finally the dandelion yellow aurora disappeared and her hooves softly hit the ground. Bully gave a impressed smile over to the exhausted colt. Timidthy smiled, "I learned the spell from mother along with giving horns and wing's to ponies as well as taking them away. I also changed your voice. Sorry if you wanted to keep it but nopony can recognize you, or else they will kill you and they'll hate me." Timidthy said blushing slightly as he said the last sentence. Bully nodded, "Apologize not needed but accepted. Thank you Timidthy I owe you my life." Bully said as her voice had jumped three octaves and had a british accent from Timidthy's spell. Timidthy shook his head, "No you don't. But we're also going to have to change your name." Timidthy said. Bully's ears went back but knew she couldn't go by her own name. She sighed and said, "How about Angel?" Bully said. Timidthy snickered, Bully blushed. "I get it I was a jerk and a psychopath. Let's see if you can come up with anything better?" Bully said. Timidthy blushed slightly but spoke, "How about...... Prado Angélico?" Timidthy said. Bully blushed red, "Angelic Meadow? How'd you come up with that? And when did you learn spanish?" Bully questioned. Timidthy blushed and looked away, "It just came at the top of my head and I had to read a physiology book in spanish once. So.....I picked up on it." Timidthy said shyly, Bully smiled. "Well I like it and thanks again I can't wait to be a normal filly." Bully said with relief in her tone. Timidthy smiled and hugged Bully, "Well I thought you would Angélico." Timidthy said sweetly as he and the now Angelic Meadow got up and took the long way back to the castle.
