the black sign

The black sign

By thomasfactoryuntold

This is not a test, for this is the journal that takes place four years after the events of pinkie pie’s disappearance that belongs to a pony named starlight glimmer. She had been wanted for the cannibalism and sexual offence of ponies in the forest, and this journal tells what has happened to starlight. What you were about to read, maybe disturbing to some viewers

Entry #1

Hello, my name is starlight glimmer, and right now, I am about to go into the everfree forest to find the evidence of pinkie pie’s disappearance. Twilight and I miss pinkie pie, twilight and I have a conversation, we agreed that since some of our friends disappear, somepony has to go and find the evidence of what happened to pinkie pie. And it should be me. I am using the detection spell to find out where pinkie pie is, and I am following the trails in the forest looking for pinkie. I will write down the evidence of pinkie pie.

I think I am following the trails, into what seems to be a cabin in the everfree forest, I am looking inside right now.

I stepped inside this cabin, and I think this is where pinkie records her message in the news. And I believe this is where she… changed? I’m not sure, I say changed because I found dents of what appeared to be tentacles of some kind of an octopus. And apparently, her front hooves must have changed too, her front hooves are bigger than her back hooves with three ents at each hoof. This is freaking me out, I… I should get out of here. I have a bad feeling about this.

Wait a minute. I think I saw something outside from far away, I… I don't know what that was, but it had looked like a walking tree from far away. That's creepy, I think I should stay here, just to be safe.

Its night time, maybe I should sleep here. I think that the walking tree is gone. I should leave tomorrow. I forgot to mention that I found some stuff that pinkie left behind, her tent, her camping stuff including her sleeping bag, and probably other stuff I found while I was following the trails. And that is what led me to this cabin. While I was looking for evidence in the cabin I noticed that the original owner of this cabin is writing down her journal and was exposing it for every mare to see, I’m sure it's not that important but it said

“If you find this journal please believe me what I say this. This cabin is haunted! I may sound crazy in this journal, and you may have been right, for what I have seen is far beyond my comprehension, including yours! This place is haunted by shub-niggurath! The black goat in the woods with a thousand young and her dark young will find you in this cabin right now! My life is short, either you burn the mansion down, or run far away as fast as you can from this cursed cabin! And whatever you do, don't look at the black sign! This is what she wants! I did that once, and I’m under her presence. Leave!”

Leave? Is that pony nuts!? This forest is dangerous here, the smartest thing she would have done is not do anything! Whatever I should continue tomorrow, goodnight.

Entry #2

I don't know if I’m dreaming, but something was here! I found giant hoofprints in front of the cabin! This is ridiculous, no creature that large would ever live in the forest, except maybe the Ursa minor, but that’s not what's happening here! When I walked out I saw the walking tree from earlier and it was walking away from me far away. And the hoofprints were huge! I don't understand how it's possible! But what is even more strange is the symbol drawn on the wall. I have a bad feeling about this simply by looking at it and I… I think I feel the oxytocin. Coursing through my spine. And it feels… sexy…

Sorry I just need to get my head back together. It suddenly gave me the dirty feeling, like I was hypnotized, into breeding, like it was mating season. I don't think this is right. I better find out what happened to pinkie pie before this… this dirty feeling came back.

Ok. I think I found a trapdoor under the chimney, and it's strange, yet interesting. The chimney is big, even bigger than a pony perhaps, and the door is made from glass. The structure of this cabin is not something I have ever seen. This is very strange. I’m curious to know what had happened to the owner of this cabin, and why there would be a trapdoor hiding under a stone slab. I’ll write something down when I have something to write.
Until then.

note: From now on I will be using the vocal inscription spell to record my entries. It's a spell that animates a quill or pen to write down the words that you say aloud; meaning I won’t need to stop what I’m doing. The spell has setbacks, however. it will catch background voices and write down words you never said, but seeing as I’m alone here in this cabin it shouldn't be a problem.

Entry #3

I found something in the attic, apparently, there were alien-like artifacts that I didn't understand and stuff from the occult. This owner had a very supernatural history apparently, did she summon a demon? Ghost? Spirit? I don't know honestly. and this is freaking me out. I used my magic radiation spell to detect any source of magic to see if it was dark magic. Apparently, it's not. It's not like any other magic I've ever seen before, it's just some kind of ancient magic, it's just… ancient magic. And…

damn was it that good, maybe I can use that magic on… wait… what am I thinking? C’mon starlight just keep it together! You can have your dirty thoughts on sunburst later. but right now we must know the evidence of pinkie pie, and maybe this cabin. We’ll see what happens.

Maybe if I can just….

Aha! Got it!

I got the chest open, and it was pictures of the owner and her family. And her name was written down. Moonburst shine light. I think she was the mother of a colt whose father disappeared 5 years ago.

I… I think I’m in a haunted cabin. I heard legends about this moon burst shine light. It said that in legend, it said that she was corrupted by an unknown force and was said to have sex with her husband constantly by that presence. You may think she was a slut, maybe… but I don't think that's the case, I think this symbol I saw had something to do with all of this, and maybe…

Maybe… aw yes… I think I wanna show that sexy sym…

No... NO! Concentrate, starlight! You can do this! Just don’t look at this symbol.

Just look at the pictures and see what was going on.

Oh look at that, there is moonburst with her son. And there's her with her husband and… wait, why is she taking pics of her sexuality? And why is she keeping it here? And… oh Celestia no! She wouldn't do that to her son! Why would she... Wait, there's only one envelope, hold on let me read!

It said, “the black sign is making me do this, it's corrupting me, driving me insane! Whatever you do, do not look at the black sign, nor do you let anypony look! One look will corrupt your mind! It's cursed! Block it! Get rid of it!

Moonburst shinelight”

The black sign? The symbol from outside!? She’s right, I have to leave! I know I sound crazy or anything, but I'm gonna teleport this journal to twilight to say, come get me! The location is…

Nah… maybe just a few more days wouldn’t hurt.

Entry #4

I’m studying the black sign and it looked similar to a pentagram except it has goat horns on it, and I could argue how a walking tree with goat hooves can draw that beautiful artwork this… beautiful… sexy… gorgeous, like rats begging to be eaten… eating…. Rats?

Oh Celestia I can't stop!

Seriously! I can't stop!

What's wrong with me! I gotta get back inside before this gets any worse!

Ok, I’m inside. What i was trying to say is that the black sign looked… you know what… but this sign is just creepy as well. It's just horrifying. Wait… those dirty thoughts. Those aren't my thoughts at all! Some cosmic presence is making me do this! And the note… the attic! Maybe it has evidence of where pinkie pie is!

C’mon… ugh! So heavy!

Got it!

Wait. moonburst she… she carved down everything about pinkie and my friends! It said something about rainbow dash having the wonderbolts killed, the eldritch abominations which are something out of hp hoofcraft, and all those horrible events? What does anything have to do with pinkie pie!? What the Tartarus is going on!

I give up… I can't find pinkie pie. Where is the element of laughter? Where is she?
Somepony come get me!!! The location is...

r҉ea͜d̸ th̸e journ̕al

Entry #5

I didn’t say that.

“Read the journal,” that wasn’t me.

I was mourning for pinkie pie, wishing to see pinkie pie again and all of the sudden, I heard my pen writing itself down, as if some supernatural force was making that sound, telling me to read the journal, unless… wait…

I think it meant…. HER journal! The journal of moonburst, maybe it had all the answers I needed!

I know twilight said not to read personal diaries, but that journal must be very important, maybe it has all the evidence!

Ok, I'm opening the journal, and…

Entry ???

I…I know the truth. A truth that shouldn't be known. moonburst she... She knew everything, and I know where pinkie is! She is at the city of r'lyeh along with the outer god ana-staja her real mother, and Cthulhu, her partner And one of the outer gods. eldritch, indescribable horrors, and that we were all insignificant insects to them. They are going to kill us! They are all going to destroy this world and bring disharmony back to where it used to be before Equestria was found! And moonburst’s father used to worship the grandmother of Cthulhu, shub-niggurath! The black goat in the woods with a thousand young and her dark young.

She described it to be An enormous mass which extrudes black tentacles, slime-dripping mouths, and short, writhing goat legs. Small creatures are continually spat forth by the monstrosity, which is either consumed into the miasmatic form or escape to some monstrous life elsewhere. She couldn't describe the rest, she went insane! She wrote down a warning to anypony that comes into this haunted cabin, haunted by an outer deity!

I hate to admit it, but i think I’m going insane, I stayed for ten days in this stupid cabin, filled with dirty thoughts that are not my own, and it's making me do the ritual! I have to get out of here, but it won’t let me! I don’t know what to do, I don't know what to do!

I have to get out!

Let me out!

Please... Please twilight, come get me! The location-

I need to breed! No! no you can’t keep me from getting out!

Look at the- no! Don't look at it! Look- don’t look at it!

It won't let me go! It won't let me go!

Hello?

Who’s there!

I’m warning you, don't come any closer! I studied spells for years, and I know how to use them!

I want my mate, I want to have sex!!

Oh Celestia this is never going to end!

Come here baby, come here, and wait no! No! Don't come closer!

I saw it, the walking tree up close. No… that’s not a tree! It's one of the dark young! And it looked horrifying, it's a horrifying, pitch-black monstrosity, seemingly made of ropy tentacles. They stand as tall as a tree, perhaps between twelve and twenty feet tall, and it's on stumpy, hoofed legs! I’m whispering to the book right now, hiding from it! And it was waiting for me to mate with it! And it's not forcibly making me come out, it's pressuring me into coming out and just breed with it!

I’m freaking out right now! I don’t know what is gonna happened to me after breeding with that thing, would I explode and die from childbirth? Or would I go completely insane!

I do not want to find out, twilight, Celestia help me!

I finally came out, and shub-niggurath was talking to me in my head!

she said that the only way it will let me go, is if I had sex with one of her dark young, and if I just… show the black sign!

I’m so sorry!

Whatever you do, please don’t turn anymore pages, just close the book right now! Once you see the black sign… there's no turning back!

This was all the journal written by the suspect of the event. A team of royal guards were searching for starlight to be put into the asylum to transform her back and seek mental help, we all started to investigate the bodies of the victims. there were none, the cabin was deserted, except for one. sunburst was recording audio during the attack. what you were about to hear may find this disturbing.

The audio starts recording from static, and then the audio is of hoof steps as if he was running, he was running from something, we didn’t know what he was running from. But we can hear sounds in the background full of moans and maniacal animalistic growls. From what appeared to be a mare. The moans he heard was to seduce him to her. The victim can be heard panting.

“Oh Celestia,” he said, appearing to be sunburst. “Starlight, what has gotten into you!”

“Sunny!” the creature called, “oh sunny baby, you know you want to, you know I’m interested in you!”

Sunburst was shaking in fear, “starlight please, we can help you! We can change you back!”

And then Silence takes hold, but that silence was not good, for it is the silence of a predator. The sound of the creature pouncing on its prey, when giggling can be heard.

“Gotcha sweetheart.” it cooed.

“Starlight no! don’t! Mmmph!”

The monster can be heard kissing

The next sequence is impossible to describe, as the audio distorts badly and jams constantly. However, small snippets that were recovered include what appears to be the moaning and groaning, along with sunburst screaming in fear.

And then the audio cuts

By the time the guards managed to enter the forest, sunburst was dead, starlight was gone. With the events released to the public, the case is now considered closed.
