1000 Ways To Die

Location: Manehatten, Up Talent's Theater

Meet The Great Delfino. He was...Well...Actually he really wasn't that great. His magic act had only one trick. He would put audience asleep as fast as possible. Now here he is in a theater where most ponies could get their big break. Up Talent who was a mare needed somepony to fill in the blank one day she had nopony to perform but then she found Delfino. She was desperate so she gave him one night.

Delfino was doing all the simple tricks he did and pretty much it made the crowd yawn and grow tired. Worst of all Up Talent had the role of playing his assistant since the last assistant Delfino had left because he wouldn't pay her. This night was like every other night and Delfino was putting his crowd to sleep.

"Now everypony I shall do the most dangerous stunt I shall stop a bullet with my mouth!"

This caught the crowd’s attention and they began to look with a little bit of excitement. Trixie what is that trick Delfino's trying to pull off.

"This awful magician is trying to pull off. The Bullet Catch. It's probably one of the deadliest effects in magic and I would never perform it. A lot can go wrong. About twelve magicians have died by different reasons doing this trick."

Delfino being not so good with his tricks didn't care how dangerous this was. He wanted ponies to notice him and maybe began to rise to fame. He was going to do this trick one way or another. The way he was going to do it was the simplest way. He told Up Talent to take a gun he had loaded with blanks and put a bullet in his mouth. She would fire at him, and he would fall over then stand up and show the bullet in his mouth so it would look like he stopped it.

Once the trick was ready Delfino and Up Talent go back on stage and Delfino speaks some stupid mumbo jumbo while hitting the gun with his wand and finally it was time.

Up Talent was ready to fire and Delfino got on the other side of the stage. "Fire!" He shouted.

*Bang!!!*

"Ta-Da." Up Talent said smiling at the crowd.

However, the crowd was screaming. Up Talent looked a Delfino and realized he was dead as his act. What happened? She knew the gun was loaded with blanks. Well Trixie do you know?

"When he tapped the gun the hunked-tip of his wand accidently dropped into the gun barrel when he tapped it. So when

Up Talent fired the gun Delfino's jugular vein got severed by the chunked-tip of his wand and he bled out and died."

It all went horribly wrong. However, his final trick produced some real magic. The crowd was about to fall asleep. With one death they woke up. That was a great trick Delfino. You're famous now...Now everyone knows the story of the late Delfino
