Nyx And The Tickety Toc Lost Horror Episode Creepy Pasta
By Sunny Meadows
Every Filly has their own cherished fillyhood memories. Family, friends and of course those derived from our nations favourite pastime: TV. My name is Nyx. I’m seventeen years old and I want to talk about something that happened one year ago. The year was two thousand and twenty and I was stuck at home because of the Coronavirus. That pesky viral nuisance had every pony in lockdown. Bored out of my brain, I decided to watch Tickety Toc, just like I did when I was eight years old. After seeing a promo advertising that it was the eighth anniversary of my beloved series, I thought to myself, why not get the DVD with every single episode at once? The DVD featured over nine and a half hours of runtime. This of course was equal to that amount of pure happiness. I always loved Pufferty in particular as he was my all time favourite.
I had to borrow the DVD from my friend (whose name I will not state for privacy reasons). I knew she had a copy and was eager to take it off her hooves. I was happy to see her but upon my departure, she said something surprisingly ominous and I quote, “Do NOT watch episode fifty-three.” I was rendered speechless at this odd directive. What a weird thing to say! I instantly shrugged off my unease and dismissed it as a lie. I mean, there is no episode fifty-three.
Anyway, I made some popcorn and I ventured down to my plush basement to watch it on my big screened TV. As I loaded the shiny disc into the DVD player I had a small moment of trepidation. My friend's warning played softly in the back of my mind. Once again shaking away any seeds of doubt, I used my magic to press play.
As the series began, I took note that the entire episodic runtime was displayed on the front of the DVDs text screen. Oddly enough, the time bar showed nine hours, forty-two minutes and zero seconds instead of the nine hours, thirty-one minutes and zero seconds I knew it to be. I was very confused but I thought maybe the last episode was twice as long or something. As I watched every episode my fillyhood memories came flooding back to me; the sleepovers with fellow cutie mark crusaders and times spent with cosy glow (after she was reformed of course) and other wonderful nights in with friends and family.
A warm and fuzzy feeling began to surround my entire being as my mind took a trip down memory lane - that is until the clock hit 9:31 pm. To my utmost surprise and shock episode fifty-two suddenly ended. But it’s eleven minutes early, I thought to myself. Before I could turn off the TV, it said in large bold red text: EPISODE FIFTY-THREE.
I gulped in fear as my friend's warning once again took centre stage inside my mind. I took a deep breath as I started to watch the episode. The intro was as filly friendly as I assumed it would be. As the episode started however, Pufferty's solemn face appeared looking very sad and extremely depressed. He began to cry mournfully. Between fits of previously unshed tears, he started to speak, "First my mother and now my nemesis has replaced me." I felt so very bad for Pufferty but I was still holding on to the naive hope that it would end happily with his nemesis getting kicked out or something. As the episode progressed however, the horror only began to grow and grow.
Two minutes later into the episode, Pufferty was in a precarious position beside his nemesis. The camera locked onto Pufferty's nemesis and he began to speak.
"You thought you could run away from death…well…too bad that your Mother couldn’t Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!”
“DON’T YOU EVEN DARE BRING MY MOTHER INTO THIS! YOU PSYCHOPATHIC MURDERER!" Pufferty yelled.
I was heartbroken to see Pufferty looking so vulnerable and shocked beyond belief that Nemesis (as Pufferty called him) was such a monster towards him. I shared Pufferty's distress with waves of empathy pouring out of me.
At the five-minute mark Pufferty began to write a suicide note. This is what he wrote down. "Dear Friends. I’m really sorry for what I’m about to do but I just can’t take it anymore. I'm scared of Nemesis because he killed my mother. I thought about running away but the worst about it is that he’s right. He told me that I’m a burden to all of you. That I’m a burden to every one. Where would I go if I ran away, I would just be a burden someplace else too. I’ve seen the hospital bills from the crash last year. I’ve seen you late at night when you think I’m in bed looking at a calculator looking all sad and worried. I know you’re trying to figure out on how to pay for every thing. I hate to make you sad my dear friends. I never want to make you sad my dear friends but being alive makes you cry after you put me to bed. That’s why I never told what Nemesis was doing to me. I didn’t want to you to worry and be even more sad. At least by doing this I can get rid of your burden. Love you always my dear friends. I hope to see all of you again some day. Love Pufferty."
By the time he was finished I was crying and struggling for breath. At the eight minute-mark Pufferty ,my favourite character…committed suicide. The last four minutes was about his funeral and the execution of Nemesis. I swore to never EVER! watch Tickety Toc again because now I know about the lost episode of this so called “filly friendly” series.
This is Nyx signing off.
The End
