Equestria Missing 2: Insanity's Nightmare

"Leave him here... this will be good"

I woke up, my neck aching like hell. I immediately froze in place once I saw where I was... I was surrounded by sharp, spiked rocks. There was a small opening, which looked like it could only be reached by crawling. But even then I could cut myself on the rocks, I looked around for another opening, but there was no other way out. "I'm getting sick of this shit..." I started crawling toward the opening, sharp rocks were threatening cuts to my chest as I crawled along the spiky ground, the pain eventually became too much to handle, I rested my body down to relieve some pain.

after about a minute I continued crawling. "Stupid, fucking ball. I'm going to murder him..." I grumbled to myself, I had closed my eyes to bear though the pain at this point, not knowing where I was going was much worse, without realising I ran into one of the spikes along the way, giving me a long cut on the neck. I made a muffled growl in pain, but I kept crawling, just so I could get out of there, I can care about pain once I'm out of danger.

Eventually, I had made it out of the spiked trench. I put my hoof to the cut on my neck, it stung the moment I touched it. "Gargh! Shit.... he'll pay for this..." My insane side said to myself. I shook my head in confusion. "Flare! you are a sane pegasus. That ball is not a 'he'!" I said to myself with slight worry for my sanity.

I had started hearing whispers in my head again. Shit... I have to accept it... "He is going to take me... NO! I CAN'T! That thing is not a 'he' I can't let him take my sanity... IT! GOD DAMN IT!" I had started feeling light headed, possibly from blood loss. I laid down to rest a little, I looked off into the distance, I saw a piece of cloth. I could bandage my wound with it.

I struggled to get up. But I did, I walked over to the cloth, it looked long enough to wrap around my neck. So I did just that, I wrapped it around my neck and tightened it enough to not have myself choking, but still able to apply pressure to the wound. I sat down and let blood come back to my head. I stood up feeling depressed.

"D-Did I really divorce Fluttershy?... N-NO! This is a nightmare. And it's just going out of it's way to make my life a misery...!" I took a deep breath. 'I better head off', I thought to myself, I then started to head away from the trench in which I woke up.

I after about an hours walk, I had reached a cliff edge over looking Ponyville. It was an okay view for a nightmare, I inspected closer and saw someone... Someone familiar... How could I say that? Her pink coat was a no brainer. "Why Pinkie Pie?" I said to myself with confusion, as I started to slide down the slope of the cliff side, and begun to follow her.

After a while we had reached Sugarcube Corner, she looked around as if she was being watched. She looked over in my direction. "HI FLARE!" She yelled out to me, with a somewhat sinister voice. "Come on in! I need some help getting some ingredients out of the freezer." For some reason something drove me to go give her some help, I had started to walk in. "Right this way!" She said with that perky yet still sinister voice.

Walking through into the kitchen, I saw the big steel door that was the freezer. "You go ahead Flare, I need to go get some other ingredients ready..." I was skeptical, I slowly took little filly steps toward the door. "Any time today Flare." I heard Pinkie say, as if she wanted me to get into the freezer. "The cake mix is at the very back, behind the box of melt-in-your-mouth sprinkles." That was an odd name for sprinkles...

I opened the freezer. A very cold rush of air came out of the freezer, giving me a shiver in the process. I took a deep breath and stepped in. I headed to the back of the freezer and started looking on the shelves, then I suddenly heard a smash and a metallic snap. I turned around quickly to see Pinkie Pie shut the door to the freezer locking it in the process, I had realised it had gotten colder, I looked at the thermostat and saw that she had broken it making it below average temperature for the freezer. "S-Shit!" I shivered and turned to the door looking for the emergency release hatch.

"Looking for something..." I heard Pinkie chuckle. "W-WHERE'S THE HATCH!" I yelled to her. She responded sinisterly: "Oh. Nowhere in particular." I then heard a metal twang behind her... She broke the hatch off...

"LET ME OUT!" I screamed to her through the thick steel door. "Wow Flare. I'm surprised Fluttershy even married you... You've got quite the mouth on you..." She said as if to offend me. "But, that shouldn't matter. You seem to be a nice stallion."

"FUCK YOU!" There was a short pause before she responded. "I take that back... Nopony deserves a guy like you, you're just too much of a meanie" I stood back and ran at the door in an attempt to bust it down. "That won't do you any good..." She snickered.

"You know, I don't know why you hate that ball. He is actually a really cool guy... Just like you... Get it? Cause you're in a freezer." She then burst out laughing. "Hey, Flare! You know what you should do? If you survive this. You should make a game based on this experience, it should be called: 'Insanity's Nightmare' and it should use the Frostbite engine... Get it?" there was then a pause, I think she wanted me to respond. "Is it because I'm in a freezer?" I asked with a grunt. "EXACTLY!" She yelled. I put my face onto the ground in unamusment. "OR! You could use the Unreal engine. I mean this experience is pretty unreal" I could just picture the enormous grin on her face.

"Or maybe you should use Unity. It's far more simple than the other two, we're also gaining a unity of friendship here." I had, had enough of her stupid video game puns.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP PINKIE AND LET ME OUT!" I yelled out of frustration. "Only if you say please." She said to me like I was a foal. I breathed to calm down...

"Would you kindly, please let me out..." I said in the calmest way possible. "Also if you give your sanity over to the ball." WHAT!? Where did that come from? "NO PINKIE! I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE MYSELF OVER TO THAT THING!"

"Well, it looks like you're going to freeze to death..." She said nonchalantly, I sat down and prepared for the next few hours.

An hour had past, I couldn't feel my wings. I looked down at them, they had frozen over at the cuts.

I then heard Pinkie say something rather impatiently, "You know, you could just give yourself over to him now... It would be so much easier."

I immediately responded. "N-NO! I-I'd rather die of hypothermia first!" I said with a sniff, I had begun to get sick. "HAH! That could easily be arranged!" She said with a somewhat evil laugh. "What do you want with me Pinkie?" I asked cautiously.

"What do I want with you? Well... To be honest. I wanted to have some fun..." Wait WHAT? This was her idea of fun?

"When that 'Friend' of yours came up to me and asked me to kill you, well I couldn't be any happier. There's something about torturing ponies that's just... Fascinating." my eyes opened wide. "For instance, remember when I gutted you in the asylum? I made Rainbow Dash hang herself." She said with that sinister voice again.

"N-NO! TAKE THAT BACK! YOU WHORE!" I yelled with hatred in my voice. "And Fluttershy... Haha. Fluttershy, I made sure she had a slow and painful death."

"NO! I DON'T BELIEVE YOU! I-I STABBED MYSELF! The doctors said so..." I said quickly. "Well. That's what you think... I did gut you. And boy was I angry when I found out you survived..." I couldn't take it anymore I got up and had a look around. "There's got to be a way out of here." I said to myself with hope.

Looking around I saw a bunch of boxes with labels of ingredients, and some tanks of liquid nitrogen. "I suppose that's for the ice-cream they make." I noted, I looked up and saw a vent where the air was being circulated from, the fan blades were spinning faster than normal. "Maybe I could jam them and crawl through the vent." Now that's an idea... A dangerous one but an idea nonetheless.

"Knock, knock? Flare? Did you die already? I'm surprised, it's always the stallions who die the quickest..."

I looked to the nitrogen tanks and saw one of the valves were broken off. I picked it up immediately and threw it at the fan, I got caught straight away and broke the fan allowing me freedom to climb up into the vent. "H-Hey! What's going on back there?!" I heard Pinkie yell, I also heard a rattling of keys. "I'm coming in there. This better not be a diversion... Your auntie Pinkie knows when someone is creating diversions."

I crawled into the vent and moved quickly. I heard the door open. "I'M 2 YEARS OLDER THAN YOU, BITCH!" I bragged as I immediately continued crawling.

"FLARE! COME BACK HERE THIS INSTANT!" I heard Pinkie demand. "COME BACK NOW AND I WILL ONLY KILL YOU SLOWLY!" Hearing that caused me to start crawling faster. The darkness was very disorientating. "FLARE! I WILL HAVE YOUR HEAD!" She screamed I looked behind me and didn't see anyone, when I was looking behind myself I didn't realise there was a drop, I fell for a few seconds before landing with a heavy thud on the ground

I looked up and saw a door, I sighed and got up. Shaking and coughing, I then headed to the door. "Here goes nothing." I said to myself, and then I turned the handle.

I Entered through the door, shivering like crazy trying to get some body heat back. Into an empty room with nothing but a table and a box. I closed the door behind me and went up to the box, when I opened it there was a note, I lifted up the note there was a knife placed underneath it. The note read "ARE YOU READY TO WAKE UP?". I think I knew what it meant but, will it kill me in the real world, I broke a rib. No I don't want to go through with this.

I walked back to the door and tried to open it but it was locked... I was locked in.... "C-crap". It seemed that I had no other choice, I walked up to the box, picked up the knife and thought for a minute... "W-what will happen? Argh! What will happen? Why is my mind putting me through this? Will I die in the real worl- I don't know..." I gasped on the verge of tears.

"P-P-Please I don't want to, NO I don't want to" The voice was burning in my head 'DO IT! DO IT!'  "N-No I don't want to No..." 'DO IT!'. Knowing that I had no other choice... I put the knife to my neck. And cried "I-I-I'm sorry Fluttershy...."
