It was a warm day, the sun beaming down on the building. The new and refurbished "Pinkie Fazpie's Pizzeria" was the new hype of Equestria because it brought the old characters back to life after being refurbished and the mane 6 were ready to have a private tour of the building. This place had the characters made and designed after them. The building's power had to be rewired and thus, the building be closed for the week.
"Alright, we're here." The princess of friendship exclaimed. "This means that we are getting a private tour. So, Pinkie, please don't mess about with the mascots. Just because the animatronic here is based off you and I'm not the main star here doesn't mean that you can mess about. Same goes with the rest of you, alright?"
Everypony nodded frantically in agreement.
"Let's go in, I wanna see what I look like!" Rainbow Dash yelled and flew towards the door, trying to open it but ultimately failing. All of a sudden, a rope wrapped around her chest and AppleJack spoke up.
"I do too Sugarcube, but they are re-routing the power. Who knows if the doors are electric? We can't just make these kinds of assumptions."
Everypony looked to the side of the building, where a blue and white stallion called to them.
"Hey, your the girls who I'm meant to be giving a tour of the place, right? That door is electric so that burglars can't get in at night. Anyways, we had a hole torn through the place to act as our door for now. Anyways, come in!"
They all ran to the stallion and they all had smiles on their faces.
As they walked through the building, Fluttershy asked a question.
"So...... what's your name?"
The stallion stopped dead in his tracks, and said his name.
"My name is WhiteCane, I don't have a cutie mark as of an incident with magic when I was a young pony. My friend is working on a spell to help me counter the spell and get it back, I guess?"
10 minutes later, they were in the dining area, where the animatronics were being repaired.
"WHOAH, IS THAT ME?" Twilight yelled as she teleported besides the animatronic. "It looks so cute! I have a bowtie!"
Half an hour passed and WhiteCane had disappeared into the backroom. . Everpony went into the backroom to ask him where Rarity's animatronic was, and there WhiteCane was, with a knife.
"What are you doing with that knife?" AppleJack asked with a hesitant face, ready to run.
"You'll see..." WhiteCane replied. He pressed a button and then the room went black. The door slammed behind them, Twilight lit her horn, only to find that there was no light. There was nothing. She felt like nothing. A few seconds later, the room lit up. Twilight was in something.. It looked like the torso of her animatronic.
WhiteCane appeared out of nowhere.
"Ah, hello princess, you decided to wake up. About time."
"Wha-" Twilight had a confused face on, however that changed to horror as she realised her friends were dead. All of them. She wanted to cry, but no tears came. However, she though of something.
"The princesses will come for us. You can't kill an alicorn and the saviours of Equestria without royal guards coming to find out where I am. They will come for us, and you will pay! Starlight will come for us, the whole town, Equestria will never lose hope on us."
WhiteCane still had a smile on his face.
"But they won't.. My friend did a duplication spell that will wear off every 30 moons. I may have no cutie mark, but that doesn't mean I'm completely useless, ya know? I've been doing this for almost all my life. I know the ropes around killing ponies and covering it up. Anyways... any final words?"
The two sat in silence for what seemed like an eternity.
"I do." Twilight replied "Where do you come from?"
WhiteCane stood in silence, wondering what to say.
"Well, I was rejected into multiple schools. I figured out that killing is what I was good at, faked my death, left my village, and ended up here. I changed my name, made powerful friends and well, here I am."
"What was your name? Like, before you faked your death?"
WhiteCane answered with a smile on his face.
"William Afton."
WhiteCane then proceeded to place the Twilight Sparkle animatronic head on her own. crushing her head in the process. She was dead. Will she be brought back? Will Celestia and Luna find her? Find out in the next chapter!
(NOTE, THIS IS 35 YEARS LATER IN THE FUTURE FROM THE PROLOGUE. THINGS HAVE CHANGED, THIS IS THE FINAL CHAPTER.)
Twilight's system woke up. Free roam activated. The purple animatronic had came a long way in the 30 years they had been stuck. However, something about this night felt off..
"God when are they going to activate?" Twilight thought to herself, as she waited for her friends to activate as well.
10 minutes later, Pinkie, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash emerged out of their respected place on their stages. Rainbow emerged from Cloudsdale Corner, as per usual. Rarity teleported to her friends and said hello.
"So, has anythin' happened yet? Newspaper articles, nightguards? ANYTHING?!" AJ asked, feeling forgotten.
Twilight hugged Applejack, feeling her pain. "No. face it, we're stuck.. 35 years have passed. Nopony has came to try and find us. We're stuck, forever."
Rainbow remembered the newspaper article she saw in the nightguard's office the previous week. "Wait here guys!" She zoomed off as fast as she could, since being stuck in the suits prevented her from flying or magic.
As soon as Rainbow Dash got into the office, WhiteCane was there. In the office chair. Looking at her. His friend's spell worked and he had his cutie mark. It was a piece of multicoloured sugar cane.
"Hello, Rainbow, ya miss me? It's been a while, eh?" WhiteCane said.
"You. You killed me and my friends! I MISSED YOU BUT FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS!" She charged at WhiteCane, hook at his face.
He smiled, as he got his axe from besides him, and threw it at Rainbow's head. The axe hit and made a loud thud as the suit's power faded. Rainbow was dead. She had died long ago.
WhiteCane yelled in the hallway. Everypony heard him.
"YOU WANT ME? I FEEL NO SHAME OR REGRET! COME GET ME!" He shook his flank in the air at the animatronics.
While they were running towards the office, Rainbow's suit had been shoved into the hallway, for all to see.
"RAINBOW DASH!" The animatronics once ponies, yelled.
"Dashie? DASHIE?" Pinkie yelled, ears down since they cannot cry.
Twilight approached the door, anger fuelled her as she looked and saw WhiteCane in the office.
"It's him. He returned to kill us again. We will go down fighting, who's with me?!?"
Everypony raised a hoof, Pinkie raised Dash's hoof even though she wasn't with us anymore.
"For Dashie!" Everypony screamed.
Charging at the door, it opened. There lied WhiteCane, aged by time.
"Hello, everpony. Time for round 2?"
"Yeah, you wanted a fight. You got one." Twilight said as she charged at the monster of a pony.
3 hours later. They were all gone. AJ took the worst. Her suit was basically destroyed fully. At least Rainbow had it quick.
"Ah, WhiteCane. I really outdid myself this time, eh? Whatever, It's in the past."
The stallion talked to himself as he unlocked the door. His face went white and then realised in the reflection of the glass, Golden Freddy was there, fire and anger in his eyes. The others had not known he was in the kitchen, when they got shipped away from eachother. The souls of the girls he had killed 35 years ago appeared behind him.
The golden beast began to speak, in a nightmare tone.
"WhiteCane, you have caused misery to your village, these ponies have done nothing."
WhiteCane stood in shock, shook his head and screamed.
"NO, NOT YOU! WHY WON'T YOU STAY DEAD!? YOU GOT REBORN BECAUSE OF THIS GOLD BUCKET OF BOLTS DIDN'T YOU?"
They didn't say anything, they just walked towards him.
"The saferoom! It has that suit, doesn't it?"
He ran to the saferoom, and put on the suit. He began to laugh like he did when he killed them.
The golden monster said only one sentence.
"You reap what you sew, Willaim."
The old state of that room, combined with the age of the suit wasn't a good combination for WhiteCane.
The suit snapped shut, crushing him. His eyes closed as he choked to death on the springlocks.
(MEANWHILE)
Starlight clinked her glass with a spoon.
"Everypony please listen to me, It's time. It's been 35 years since our friends have disappeared. This is for Twi-"
A glowing aura was on the stage as the ponies that went missing, appeared. Everypony had tears in their eyes. Spike went up to Twilight."
"TWILIGHT, IS THAT YOU?"
"Spike... I'm so sorry.." Twilight told him, tears in her eyes.
"What happend Twilight? You were missing for almost 40 decades.."
"WhiteCane, the owner of the place killed us and made us haunt the robots.."
"Oh, god.. where is he? I'm gonna kill him myself!" Tempest added, her horn glowing."
The golden bear appeared. "In hell, hopefully. Anyways, I have a gift for you."
Balloons representing their souls appeared infront of them.
"You better say goodbye to your friends, you won't see them until they pass on."
"Goodbye everypony. I wish you a happy life and I'll see you when you pass on."
Everypony was crying at this point, her Canterlot High friends were there as well.
One by one, the girls accepted the balloons, floating up.
Twilight was the last one. She had something to say.
"Remember, everypony. Friendship is forever and don't break your friendships no matter what. Please, stay safe and tell Princess Celestia, Luna and Cadence that.. I'm sorry.
She accepted the balloon, joining her friends.
The nightmare was over.
Thanks for reading, I had fun writing.
