Demise of the King

Dash and shadow made a stop at rarity’s house. “Rarity, have you noticed anything unusual about twilight lately?” dash questioned her. “Well she did come in for a dress the other day” “what kind of dress did she get?” “A wedding dress, she had me make a special one just for her” rarity replied. “A wedding dress?” dash said to herself “so she’s marrying nova?” shadow asked his mare. “So she tells you but not me? Hmph she’s not a really good friend” rarity butts in upset. “Do you have any other information that could help us rarity?” “The only other thing is I haven’t seen spike all week, he’s usually tried to win me over somehow by now.” “Hmmmmmmm ok well thank you for your help rarity” dash and shadow head out. “We need to talk to applejack she’s the last pony who saw the king” shadow said “good idea babe” she gives her stallion a confident smile.

They make their way to Sweet Apple Acres, when they arrive they find Big Mac. “Big mac where’s applejack?” “Hmmmmmmmm in the barn I think” he answers. They make their way over to the barn where they indeed do find applejack. “Applejack you were the last one to see the king, do you have any information that might help us find him?” “No I can’t say that I do, sorry….well maybe I do. Last I saw he was headed towards twilights place.” She answered. “Alright thank you applejack” dash and shadow head off to scope out twilights house. “So far everything points to twilight, but we need evidence” shadow said. “That’s why we are going to scope out her house and hope we can find something” dash insured him. They finally reach her house and hide in the bushes and wait. After a few hours they see me and twilight leave the house. “Alright this is our chance, ill check inside you check outside. If you don’t find anything come help me inside” dash set up the plan.

They both rushed the house and started their search. Dash began looking through everything, books, drawers, you name it. She looked in a trash can and found the boxes of the dye twilight used to change my mane and hide color with. “Lime green and black” she said to herself, she continued to dig in the trash but found no more clues. She checked the cabinets and found a bottle of pills that was unmarked and that had only a few pills left in it. She took the bottle and put it in her saddle bag. She continued searching through the house, she found the blood covered blade twilight had used and put it in her saddle bag as well. She lifted the covered off of the bed and saw the blood. “Who’s blood is this?” she thought to herself. Finding nothing else upstairs she headed back down when suddenly she heard “hey baby come here quick!” She rushed outside to shadow “something is buried here, let’s see what it is” he said, they then started digging. They began to see green and purple through the dirt “NO! NO!..............its spike”
