A dimming star

By thomasfactoryuntold

This is princess Cadence of the equestrian government to give you a message to warn you of the most dangerous threat to equestria. There had been numerous reports of an equinox epidemic spreading throughout the land. And the five recordings we found has revealed the suspect of the apocalypse coming towards us.

The audio recordings was In the everfree forest to show proof that she had survived the train crash.

What you were about to hear, may be disturbing to some viewers.

“Hello, this is twilight sparkle. As you can see, or hear, I was kicked out of the wedding by my big brother. because I was trying to protect him from that stupid, bitch demanding, Insincere, FUCKING RUDE, AND THE WORST PONY WHO DOESN'T DESERVE TO GET FUCKED BY A PENI-”

The audio Pauses for 2 minutes, with the sound of a train moving in the background.

“:sigh: sorry I… need to calm down. if you can already tell I am recording myself of my misery of going back to ponyville. But it's no big deal don’t really think it was a big deal, I mean I can still make new friends right?

I think I’m still celestia’s star student. Maybe I will find new friends to learn friendship that way. right? right?

:sigh: I don’t know, maybe I will go back to ponyville and see if anypony would want to be my friend, I think that’s a good idea.

Huh, a scroll, from celestia? I wonder what it-

“Rumbling”

Wait…. Why was the train moving so fast?

I have to stop the train!

What!? The door is stuck!? How am I going to get out!? Oh no, no! NOOOOOOOOO-”

“Explosion, then audio cuts”

“hello sons of bitches, did you fIve narcissists, one little draconic traitor, and my former fucking teacher have a good time, yeeeeesssss? Well good for you, but not me, when I read this note from her, and CRASHED INTO THE FUCKING EVERFREE FOREST!!!!!!! That's just great! I am so angry right now! She had wrote down the most outrageous message, even which I didn't know that the first vlog was that short, since I was In the train for a short time before the crash, BUT THAT IS NOT THE SUBJECT!!!!!!!

The subject is this bullshit letter given to me by celestia that I was expelled for being over-protective, when the worst mare who was not the cadence I knew, was manipulative to my brother! AND NOW I’M STUCK HERE IN THE EVERFREE FOREST AND SURVIVED THE CRASH!!!

And you can never guess what she had wrote down, ‘and whatever discord that is happening to you twilight, you deserve everything you get.’ WELL THAT’S FUCKING PERFECT!!!! PERFECT ENOUGH TO PUNCH HER IN THE FACE!!!!!

:mocking: princess MI Amore Cadenza, WHAT’S NEXT, CALLING CELESTIA PRINCESS LUMIÈRE DU SOLEIL!? FUCKING BULLSHIT! FUCKING BULLSHIT! FUCKING BULL-”

AUDIO DISTORTED; CANNOT TRANSLATE

“I HATE EQUESTRIA! I HATE CELESTIA! I HATE PONYVILLE! I HATE MY FIVE ENEMIES! I HATE EVERYPONY! I HATE CANTERLOT! I HATE-

AUDIO DISTORTED; CANNOT TRANSLATE

Great… now I’m alone! I’ll just build a campfire, and just survive all by myself as far as I care.

:maybe I’ll go back InsIde the train and maybe find some camping supplies there. Oh crap, a sunset! I better hurry before any other creatures get me, if I need to survive. No thanks to my stupid teacher! I’ll get over it.

Well good news, I have finally found some supplies and some food for me to actually eat. No thanks to mI amore cadenza! I’ll just get over it, but for now I better get a tent and some firewood for me to survive In this forest.

Tent, check.

Food, check

Wood, check

Equipment like a lighter, an axe, and some other tools, check.

Ok time to survive.

Ok I have some marshmallows on a stick In case I make myself some smores for myself. if you were wondering yes I’m still angry, But I’m not as angry as when I read this note. But I… I hope I would make some new animal friends and just forget this issue. Even my Incident with the wedding. :sigh: I hope I can get out of this forest, and find Civilization soon.

I hear something, it sounded like that it was coming from the forest. I’m scared right now.

:Garbled laughter:

D…..did I just hear…. Laughing!?

:Garbled speech:

Just stop it pinkie! You know we were not friends anymore, your freaking me out right now!

…

I don’t hear anything… I got a bad feeling about this. I hope it’s not pinkie, because usually pinkie pie was at random at certaIn places like the the everfree forest I am In right now. I really need to hunt for food if I need to survive if I ran out. I can use my food finding spell to find food, but I better save it In case it runs out.

“bushes moving:

:twilight gasps: it’s.. it’s ok twIly he he he, you are going to be just fIne… unless you are being hunted down by w wild animals, but those are my thoughts.

:10 minutes of silence:

Ok.. I think I’m safe for-

:stallIon screaming:

Gah!!!

:runs Into a tent:

Ok I know I’m whispering to the mike but what was that!? Somepony was screaming out there! I am not going out of my tent to find out!

…

Maybe I should look outsIde the tent to see what was going on In the campfire.

:unzipped the zipper:

:hoof steps, of moving stIcks and leaves:

I… I don’t think I can describe this. You know the candymare, an urban legend that she will eat pony flesh if you don’t feed it candy In nightmare night, and will also eats anypony who dares to go In the everfree forest?

Well I know you would not belIeve me but…she’s real! And she is outsIde my tent right now! Dragging the body of a mIddle aged stallIon, he looked like he was dead, I can’t tell, from the shadow behInd the campfire. But right now she is dragging the body and, and… she’s…

time for you to get cooked smithy!

She is making a rotisserIe with stIcks, on my own campfire! She’s - she’s roasting him! My celestia! This is bad! This is really bad! I need to get out of here!

Wait… where is it?

Shit!

I left the note outsIde with this…. Thing! How am I supposed to get out of here now!?

It’s reading the note.

Twilight sparkle you are expelled for…

Ooohhhh poor twIly, expelled by this mean teacher, losing a brother, and friends along with it. I know, I will be her new teacher! She will spread the plague, and make people happy as monsters. That will be a great idea!

P….plague? what is that thing talking about!?

Fuck it! I don’t want to know what she means, I better avoId her and get out!

I better go out and find this twilight sparkle, ohh twily where are youuuuuu! :voIce fades away:

She- she’s gone!

:Runs out the tent: I have to pack my things and leave! Tent; flashlIght; :uses spell to pack all the camping stuff as fast as possIble:

Ok I got my stuff I better get out of here and find zecora. if not then I have to go to a nearby tower and contact the royal guards.

Twilight sIgning out!

Log date 4/22/12

Ok, I’m back. right now I’m going to PLAN A and tell zecora and find out about this candy creature that was hunting me down. I may not have fIve of my friends anymore, but at least I have zecora. You may be wondering why I put bargaining In the title, well, I’m trying to find a way to actually get out of this forest and maybe get new friends, at canterlot or other places than ponyville and canterlot.

They maybe not like fIve of the ponIes that used to be my friends, but I need to keep trying. Reeeeally need to keep trying. :sigh: I hope I get out of this forest soon.

A pathway to zecora’s! Yes! I can finally get the help I need! Oh shit, I have to hurry though! it is still hunting me down! I’ll get back to you if I can!

I can smell you twilight! I’m gonna find you!

it knows that I’m here, I better run!

:sound of hoofsteps running:

C’mon!

C’mon!

C’mon!

I heard your hoof steps!

Crap! I better hurry this up! She’s getting close!

:hoofsteps running even faster:

I made it!

:hard knocking:

Zecora! Zecora I need your help! This is urgant! I need to get In! I’m being hunted down by the candy mare and I need your help

:turning door knob:

it’s unlocked?

How would it... never mind I just need to get to see zecora!

:door bursts open:

Zecora! I need your help! First I was kicked out of the wedding, then I got expelled thus loosing my friends, and now I have been in a train crash, being hunted down by this candeymare from the legend! Zecora I am in danger and I need safety! Zecora? Zecora!?

:the sound of running:

No!

No!

No!

Not here!

Not hear!!

Where is she, where is she!?

Aaaaaah!

:silence for 6 minutes:

No… NO! it can’t be!.... she killed you…. the candymare killed you!

A note!

it’s…. it’s a warning.

:the operator reads the note: she… she knew?

No… no she can’t be beignet sweets, can she?....

I think know who that candymare is, she was the shop owner who was thought was spreading poison candy 7 years ago. But I find it ridiculous! There is no scientific proof that it had ever happened to everypony! Who ever came up with that stupid idea is a bully! Sorry I needed to get this off of my chest, I need to get out of this forest, but since plan A is all in vain, I will stick with plan B.

Ok I know I haven’t mentioned this in the last blog, but you may have been wondering “twilight since you have crashed in a train shouldn’t there be ponies excavate the rubble to look for you”? To be honest I do not know. I know that celestia said that I deserve everything I get, but maybe I can struck a deal after I got out of this forest. Maybe if I had her assistant, I will not harm cadence again. I guess I was imagining things. Maybe she will forgive me? I don’t know. I shouldn’t be so naive about this. I better keep going.

…

Yes! There’s the tower! I’m going to make it! Despite the fact that it has a broken window! ponyville here I come! Woohoo!

“Running”

“Garbled laughter”

No.. no! no! no! no! Not her again! Not her again!

I better hurry!

Twilight! I have a surprise for you! And I also got news for you!

No.. nooo! Get away from me, you flesh eating monster!

I need something to slow her down , but how am I-

:pauses for a second while the operator is still running:

I got it!

There’s a rubble on top of an old bridge, maybe if I can… oh celestia I hope it works!

“Magical blast, rocks falling”

Aaaaahhhhhhhh!

Hahaaaaaaa! Eat that you pile of cavities! Wooooo!

…

Yes! Yes! I’m almost there! I’m finally going to get out of this fucking forest! Yes!

ha! I made it! Now I just need to get into the… what! The door is locked!? Where’s the key!? Seriously I just got here and-

:garbled laughter:

crap!! She’s back! C’mon c’mon! Let me in! Wait something in the carpet is bulgy! Why is it…

:doormat flips over:

Well fuck me in the keyhole!

Shit! I better get in, quick!

:door unlocks:

There you are!

Now I’m gone!

:door slam:

My celestia that was close! Gasp! But what is she breaks in!? I better hurry!

:running for 10 minutes:

:climbing up the ladder, then the audio cuts:

finally I made it to the telephone room! Now I just need to call the authorities, and I better look out for this candymare creature that was chasing me. Ok let’s hope that this thing works.

:radio distorted:

Please please work! Please work!

“Hello?”

Hello! Yes, finally you can read me, listen I am in an extreme case of emergency right now! I need to get out of this everfree forest!

“Why, what’s going on? What’s the situation?”

I have survived the crash and there was this creature from the everfree forest chasing after me! Please! Please get me out of hear!

“Calm down ma’am, can you describe what the creature looked like, and tell me the whole story?”

Ok.. it started with my brother in the wedding I came here to visit my filly sitter cadence, she would do anything for me, she even charged for me like a sister. But everything changed when I came to visit her, I noticed that there something wasn’t right with her. she was being rude to my friends, and even cast a spell on my brother, I tried to exposed her, but I really… didn’t try it hard enough, my brother scolded me and told me that I shouldn’t show up at the wedding, so I left. I left canterlot and was about to go back to ponyville, when the train crashed, I do not know what had caused it, but that’s not important now.

I was the only one who survived the crash, I was about to go camping to wait for somepony to get me…. but... I…

“Ma’am?”

That… BEAST!!!! THAT NIGHTMARE!!!

Why.. why… why are you doing this to me?

“It’s alright ma’am, now, about the monster you mentioned to me before?”

You… you know the legend of the candymare?

“Yah?”

Well… she’s real.. she’s real! I been chased by her! I even saw her when I was hiding in a tent! She was eating a middle aged stallion, cocking him up with a campfire!

I SAW HER WITH MY OWN EYES YOU SON OF A BITCH!!! she killed zecora!! And she was now coming for me! I can’t rest, I can’t eat! You have to let me out! Please! I’m terrified! I have to get out of here before she does anything worse!

“Ma’am calm down, we will report this to celestia as soon as possible.”

Thank you please do that for me.

“Rodger, over and out.”

:radio hangs up:

finally I’m going to be out soon. Let’s hope that they arrive.

:science for 10 seconds before garbled laughter:

There you are twilight.

Oh no! please don’t eat me!

Don’t worry I’m not trying to eat you, I want to give you something.

W...What do you want from me! My friends need me. They need my help from this madness happening!

Silly twi they don’t need your help,

What?

they already took care of that. They have probably ignored you by now! That’s probably why they have disowned you, they don’t need you anymore. They abandoned you.

Your.. your lying, your lying!

I have lied to anypony yes, but I’m not lying this time. I want to give you a generous offer, I’m not going to tell you what it was, but hear is the gift for you.

No please!

Bleeeeeeeeh

:coughing before the audio cuts:

Alright this is blog… 3 or… 4? I don’t know, it’s been 11 months since I have been recording this. Since when is there any hope of ever having friends, there isn't! I can’t believe they would ignore me, I have been surviving for months after the last 3 blogs, finally I can remember, but look at me in this photo of myself! I’m sick, my mane and tail are a mess, my eyes are red, because I can’t…. Fucking…. Sleep!

:snifs:

In case you were wondering… what device I am using… to make an audio blog… like what I am doing right now, it’s called an audio text tx3.
It records the voice of the audio you recorded and puts them into text for it to write down. The flaw is that it catches background noises and voices from other ponies, which explained why you can see the candymare talking in the text even though you can't even tell who that was, and which is why you can text is sound effects like-

:desk thump:

So you can know what was going on.

:silence for 5 minutes:

Oh yah, and this is also why you see silence for whatever minutes you see being typed in. It shows that nothing has happened when it was recording. Sorry, I almost forgot about that.

I…. I can't do anything to have any friends, I just can't they have ignored me and after 10 months they most likely forgot about me.

You… you will never know what you had, until… you… lose it.

:sobbing:

That thing was right, they did abandon me!

If it wasn't for that mi amore whore-enza, I haven't been stuck in this forest! I… I want to see her in chains!

:coughing:

I want to save them, I was trying to help them, and this is the thanks I get? I want to see them scream, I want to see them bleed, rip off the smug little face of-

Hurk!

:vomits:

He he he he.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Haha Haha haha haha.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

:gurgled laughter:

It looks like I've learned something new from this experience, how wonderful it feels to accept the fact that I can only make everypony enemies, It felt right.The candymare is right, I will make everypony into my own monsters and I will never ever use the elements of harmony again!

I don't think I'm a pony anymore, in don't know what I am, but I was no longer the naive little twilight trickle I used to be, she's too weak! She is nothing but a lonely little foal who was looking for the love she will never get, I will never be that insolent foal!

I haven’t tried it hard enough

I wasn't strong enough.

I will never be good enough.

I wasn't conceived enough

And since I could not rise above, why should they?

friendship isn't magic! They lied, they all lied! I fought for the chance, but only to be lied again!

But, He he he, I'm just getting started. I have a few ponies infected already. But it's not enough, I need more monsters! I need to take over all of equestria and make that traitorous princess pay! From now on, why stop here!? I don't even care who is an imposter or not at this point if I see the real pony, I will kill both of them, or infect them both!

My first victim is right beside me right now, I have done some experiment on that mare. Do you have something to say?

“Mmmfff!” “Mmmfff!”

That’s what they all say. I will make cadence pay the price. But right now I will save canterlot for the last, ponyville will be the start of my task. I’m starting to think that appaloosa is going to be easier than I thought it was going to be, since they only have pie's for weapons… somewhat. But I'm pretty sure that the hard part is going to be the crystal Empire, they have powerfully magic along the way. But this time, we will be prepared for this.

The candymare was beignet sweets, I can see this now. She wanted to be my new teacher so I can make better monsters in equestria. She can help me with the apocalypse. As for the changelings, they too will die. The equinox can see through a disguise of a Changeling very easy. But they will never see the hunger I have been feeding inside.

I don't think I need this audio journal anymore. There is no love for me for those ponies, the equinox has infected beignet, now one of the campers, and now me, and soon equestria itself! It will be ours, it will all be ours!

My name is not twilight sparkle, not anymore.

I am the devil of equestria, I am the lurking fear that you can feel in the dark, I'm…

I'm…

Dimmed star! Yes! Yes! That's my name!

Dimmed star!

The age of monsters shall conquer all, we will rise!

We!

Want!

To!

Kill!

Everypony!

:garbled laughter then the audio cuts:
