The Night Begins

Come one, come all to the circus event. Bring family, friends, a pony you just met, anypony. This circus is going for the whole week. Start buying tickets!

"Oh, that looks fun. Do you want to go?" asked Sweetie Bell.

"Sure!" said Scootaloo and Applebloom in unison.

"Uh," The CMC turned to find Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon.

"Y'all are going to the circus?" said Silver Spoon with a glare.

"Yeah, is that a problem?" asked Scootaloo.

"Don't you see it said no blank flanks," said Diamond Tiara.

"It Doesn't say that if you can read." Said Applebloom with a smirk.

"Whatever, hope we don't see you there," said Diamond as she and Silver walked off.

"We need to ask our sisters if they can go with us," said Applebloom as Scootaloo and Sweetie Bell nodded.

As the Bell rang they all left in separate directions. Applebloom saw AppleJack in the front of the farm watering crops.

"Hey, sis," said AppleJack.

"Hey, AppleJack. Can we go to the circus today?" Asked Applebloom with puppies eyes.

"Sorry, Applebloom. I have a lot of work to do with the farm and friendship business. I don't think we can go at all." said AppleJack.

"So we can go on another day of this week?" asked Applebloom.

"I'm sorry we can't sugar cube," said AppleJack.

"Okay," said Applebloom as she walked away. Applebloom only hoped that her friends were having more luck.

At Rarity's Shop:

"Hello Sweetie Bell." said Rarity.

"Hey, Rarity," said Sweetie Bell. "Can we go to the circus today, it goes on for the whole week?" asked Sweetie Bell smiling.

"Oh, sorry darling. I can't go any of this week." said Rarity as Sweetie Bell's ears lowered.

"Oh, okay." said Sweetie Bell as she walked away.

At WonderBolt Academy:

"Hey, scoots," said Rainbow Dash.

"Hey, Rainbow. Can we go to the circus today?" asked Scootaloo.

"Sorry Scoots, I have to go practice this whole week so I won't be able to go to the circus at all." said Rainbow Dash sadly.

"That cool." said Scootaloo as she trotted away.

CMC Clubhouse:

"Any Luck?" said Applebloom breaking the silence between them.

''Nope." they said in unison.

"Well, I came up with a plan, We will sneak at night and I will meet you at the circus." said Applebloom.

"Sure." said Sweetie Bell.

"That sounds cool." said Scoots.

"Well, what are we waiting for. The sun is down. Let's go!" said Applebloom.

It was 10:00 pm on the dot, Applebloom saw Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo. It was a lot of ponies inside. Applebloom made it down to Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo. Unfortunately, to find Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon one seat away from them Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo noticed the face AppleBloom was making, and right knew why she was making it.

"We know," said Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo as Applebloom took her seat.

"Uh, I have to sit next to you." said Diamond in an unhappy tone.

"Fillies and Gentlecolts, we are happy to see all of you here tonight. The show is full of trilling, jaw-dropping, and amazing stunts. Be prepared for us to blow your mind!" said the show stallion. A stallion popped up in a cage telling everypony to run and get out of here. Before, a clown, who look innocent, came with a chain saw. Which made the stallion scream to the top of his lungs. The clown lunged the chain saw into his stomach making him scream louder. The audience roared with laughter. Applebloom noticed it looked real. To real. She looked at Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo, but they were already looking at her with worried expressions. Apple Bloom turned to see Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, but they were already looking at her too. By the time they all looked back. The stallion was on the floor, his organs spread across the floor.

"This doesn't look right," said Diamond Tiara.

"I agree." said Sweetie Bell.

"It...looks real." said Silver Spoon clutching her stomach.

"Too real," said Scootaloo shaking.

"Maybe it just fake prank blood. Let's keep watching." said Applebloom as they turned their heads back to the floor. The spot where the stallion was laying was just a puddle of blood.

"Oh, I hope he okay." said the show stallion as the audience laughed. As he walked off the floor the clown walked on. The costume he was wearing only have one flaw. The bow tie he had on like a tied up organ in the shape of a bow tie.

"Is that the guys orga-. You know what do Y'all want to get something from McDinky's?" asked Diamond Tiara.

"But, that is all the way down the street." said Scootaloo.

No, dumb blank flank there is one right there." said Diamond Tiara as she rolled her eyes.

As the five of them got up they noticed that there was a long line and they were gonna have to wait.

"What do you blank flanks get from McDinky's?" asked Silver Spoon.

"Well, I get Big Mac." said Applebloom.

"I get the McNuggets." said Scootalooo.

"I get nothing. I don't like McDinky's," said Sweetie Bell.

"Why not?" asked Diamond Tiara.

"On a diet," said Sweetie Bell.

"Oh, really-" Diamond Tiara suddenly stopped shaking in fear.

"What wrong Diamond?" asked Sweetie Bell in concern.

All Diamond Tiara could do was point her hoof to the corner of the tent. The four turned around to see the clown staring at them we a wicked smile on his face. He slowly got up and walked over to them.

"How are you enjoying the show my little fillies." asked the clown in a very creepy tone.

"Oh, it very...nice," said Sweetie Bell, but notice he was just staring at Diamond Tiara. Like hard down staring at her with a smirk.

"What are you staring at pervert! Don't you see you're making her uncomfortable!" yelled Scootaloo moving in front of Diamond.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. My intentions aren't to make you feel uncomfortable." said the clown as he stared at all of them with a wicked grin.

"Okay, we answered your question, you can go now. And never call us your little fillies," yelled Scootaloo as she stomped her hoof. The rat still had that stupid smirk on his face and walked away.

"Thank you, blank flan-, I mean Scootaloo," said Diamond Tiara with a smile.

"What was up with that." said Silver Spoon panicking.

"Woah there, come down Silver Spoon." said Applebloom she took Silver Spoon's hoof."But, I have a bad feeling about this place." said Applebloom as they moved up in the line.

The Truth

As they took their seat it was silent for a few minutes. They were still processing what happened. Applebloom couldn't take it anymore.

"So we just act like what happened, didn't just happen?" asked Applebloom in a fearful tone.

"Applebloom is right. That clown was coming for me! He was hardcore staring at me." said Diamond tiara as she slammed her hoof on the table.

"He wasn't just coming after you, Diamond Tiara! He was coming after all of us! But these rats are weird their all six-foot tall!" said Scootaloo.

"Did you see how to that colt was screaming i-i-it just sounded all real," said Silver Spoon with a concerned look on her face.

"It think we should leave, this place doesn't feel right," said Sweetie Bell as the others nodded there head.

After they finished eating their food they went towards the entrance. There were two clowns standing as if they were guards.

"What are you fillies doing? Go sit down an enjoy the show." said one of the guards.

"Oh, thank you, but we have to get home," said Sweetie Bell.

"Oh, but the final event is coming up! You wouldn't want to miss that would you." asked the guards.

"I think we would" mumbled Scootaloo. Applebloom punched Scootaloo in the shoulder.

"Ouch!" yelped Scootaloo as Applebloom glared at her.

"Oh, us course the final we would want to miss that. Come on girls," said Silver Spoon as they walked away.

"Silver Spoon, what was all of that about? Don't you want to get out of here?" said Diamond with a confused expression on her face.

"Of course I want to get out of here, it just, didn't you hear what they were saying? They obviously didn't want to let us out," said Silver Spoon.

"So how are we going to get out then," said Applebloom as she looked around the circus tent.

"And how are we going to do that?" asked Sweetie Bell.

"Look for one!" yelled Applebloom.

As they searched for a way out Diamond Tiara noticed that the clown was following then. The others started to notice that Diamond Tiara started to speed up her pace. Then she suddenly ran off. The others turned around to see the clown running straight toward them. Applebloom knew they had to find a hiding place quick. And it wouldn't be hard to find one the circus tent was basically an arena.

"run." mumbled Applebloom.

"What?"

"I said run!" yelled Applebloom.

Soon they saw Diamond Tiara open a door to what said 'Circus stars only' door. Scootaloo turned around to see if the clown was still there. It was clear. As they walked through the door they felt a hoof pull them into the clothing rack.

"What heck are yo-"

"Shut up! Diamond Tiara whispered harshly.

"You heard that." One of the stallions asked the other.

"No"

"I sure hope no pony is back here, because if they were...it wouldn't end up so well for them." said the stallion with a wicked smirk on this face.

"We're gonna have to make a run for it." whispered Sweetie Bell. " On my count...1...2...3!" yelled Sweetie Bell as they all ran.

"Get them!" they heard through the distance.

"Nice move Sweetie Bell," said Silver Spoon with a smile.

"There is the entrance. When we get there push the guards and head to the friendship express," said Applebloom.

"Wait, Why aren't we going home?!?!" asked Diamond Tiara.

"Because they can follow us home and hurt our families," said Applebloom as she narrowed her eyes at Diamond Tiara which in her surprise shut her up.

As soon as they go to the entrance the guards were already on the ground on by how fast they were pushed.

"Come on girls to the station!" yelled Applebloom.

They can hear in the distance somepony yelling. After what they witnessed didn't think to look back. When they made it the train station to their surprise ponies were still up and awake.

"Wait, Don't we need tickets to get on the train? asked Scootaloo.

"I have some in my saddlebag," said Sweetie Bell as she pulled out five tickets.

"Where did you get them from," asked Silver Spoon.

"Oh, my sister Rarity gave them to me, for some strange reason." answered Sweetie Bell.

"All Aboard!" yelled the conductor.

"Come let's g-"

"There they are." screamed the stallion from before.

"Go get in!" said Applebloom as she pushed the others inside.

The train started to move. All they could hear was the stallion yelling stop the train at the station. When the station was out of sight they took their seats.

"That was close," said Diamond Tiara.

"Yeah, Sweetie Bell do you know what time it is?" asked Scootaloo.

Sweetie Bell looked at the stars for a moment and then looked back at Scootaloo.

"It's 1:46 in the morning."

"How did you know that?" Applebloom in awe.

"Oh, a trick my mother taught me," answered Sweetie Bell.

" Well, we should get some rest shouldn't?" Applebloom said as she closed her eyes. "Goodnight."

"Goodnight." The other said in unison.

Diamond woke up to see that everypony were up before her. She continued to look around the cart. A lot of ponies were looking at them. 'Made because were alone.' Diamond Tiara thought.

"Slept well?" asked Sweetie Bell as she was munching on a bag of chips.

"Yeah," Diamond looked at the other they were eating snacks too."Where do you get snacks from?"

"We got them from the snack pony. Why?" answered Scootaloo.

"Can I have some?" asked Diamond Tiara.

"Sorry we only got four," said Silver Spoon.

"What about me!" Diamond Tiara said with a glare.

"Go get one then!" said Applebloom"Do we look like maids to you?" Diamond Tiara looked around. They looked tired, manes messed up a little bit, and they smelled a bit.

"Well..."

"Don't answer that question," said Applebloom as she handed three bits to Diamond.

"The next stand is in the next cart." said Applebloom as she went back to snacking.

"Can somepony go with me," said Diamond Tiara with a sheepishly smile.

"I'll go" Sweetie Bell volunteered.

When they made it to the down to the stand. There were two mares. They as if they were in there twenty's. They were both talking to each other.

"Um, excuse me?" whispered Sweetie Bell not meaning to interrupt their conversation.

"Uh, don't you see were talking, you can wait." said one of the mares.

"She was being polite," said Diamond Tiara as she narrowed her eyes.

"But, we were taking!" said the other mare getting up from her seat.

"Well, what you should be doing is your job. You know what I'm not hungry anymore," said Diamond Tiara as she threw the three bits at the mares.

"Here's a tip, go get a better mane-cut," said Diamond Tiara as she stomped away, leaving the mares completely astonished.

As they made back to there seats the others can see the face Diamond Tiara was making. Silver Spoon let out a sigh.

"What happened?" Silver Spoon said with a blank expression.
