"Twilight? Are.. Are you oka-"

Twilight kicked Spike across the room. Spike hit a bookshelf, and some of the books fell and landed on his head. A bruise started to appear on his chest as he coughed constantly.

"I'm going to make Fluttershy pay, and no pony, zebra, weird animal hybrids or DRAGONS ARE GOING TO STOP ME! NOW GET TO YOUR BED AND DON'T COME OUT UNTIL I SAY SO, OR I'LL USE MY MAGIC ON YOU TOO!"

Spike struggled to get upstairs, but he still rushed to his small bed, to get away from Twilight. He knew deep down that he would somehow get pulled into the drama anyway. But he didn't know what Twilight was talking about. He didn't know what kind of drama he could possibly get into.

Twilight left the house, and set her destination to Fluttershy's home. She couldn't wait for her revenge, as for her, it would be sweeter than any revenge possible. When she finally made it to her friend's, or rather, ex-friend's home, she dove into the bushes and peered through her small window. She was trying to get all of her animals to sleep. Twilight put a stop to this and used a telepathic message spell on Fluttershy, which she had learnt just for this occasion. She also restricted her from moving.

Hello, my friend. I have a game for you after you ruined all my friendships and, well, MY ENTIRE LIFE. I THOUGHT YOU WERE THE ELEMENT OF KINDNESS.

W-Who is this? WHY ARE YOU IN MY HEAD? Y-You won't hurt me, right? Are you a ghost? Is this a dream?

OH NO. THIS IS A CERTAIN UNICORN YOU KNOW. HERE'S A HINT: THE ELEMENT OF MAGIC. THE ALICORN PRINCESS YOU WERE FRIENDS WITH BEFORE YOU LEFT ALL OF THE PRESSURE ON THEM WITH KILLING THE ENTIRE CRYSTAL EMPIRE?

Tw-tw-Twilight? Why would you do this? Are you blaming me? It was kinda your responsibility...

ENOUGH! Now, we are gonna play a game. You stay quiet for the rest of your life, or you go to the Everfree Forest and don’t return. You got that? It might seem weird, but it gives me the chance to speak the truth since you won’t be in the way. Am I clear?

yes... I admit, it was my fault. But I don’t want to go there. I need to take care of the-

Then you will do as I say. The game begins now. Good luck.

Twilight had never felt happier. It felt satisfying to give Fluttershy a piece of her mind. She couldn’t even remember her old friendly self anymore. Friendly Twilight was gone for now. Or maybe even forever. She felt even happier knowing that Fluttershy would fail too easily, as she always does.
