The Dungeon Of Spike: Judgement Days
Day 1
Applejack’s eyes slowly opened as she stared at the gold in front of her. She attempted to rub her eyes but her hooves were chained down. Her vision was foggy as if she was crying. However, with a few blinks her vision was back to normal. Applejack sighed, it was hopeless, last night when Applejack went to bed, she’d hoped and wished for the events of the day before to all be a dream. The screams of Twilight, Rainbow, and Fluttershy rang through her head the entire night, along with visions of their grizzly demise, Pinkie’s suicide, and what ever could have happened to Rarity. Throughout the first day Spike had been force feeding her soup made from different parts of Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. However, this morning Spike was not making his stew. Perhaps he would stop giving her that soup, or he had simply forgotten this morning and was fetching more of them, or worse, another of Applejack’s friends.
“What?!” A loud squeaky voice cried “WHERE AM I?! SILVER SPOON?!”
“OVER HERE!” Another voice called. The voices came from the dungeon across the hallway.
“Huh?” Applejack questioned
“OH!” Exclaimed the all too familiar voice of Spike the dragon “Applejack’s finally awake!” The dragon walked into his cave displaying his new appearance to Applejack. It came as no surprise to Applejack that Spike had grown to his full greedy state, like the day after his birthday. Throughout the previous day Spike had been growing due to his greed. Now he was full sized.
“Sp-p-p-piiike?” Applejack stuttered “W-w-what are y'all doin’”
“Oh you’ll see” Spike grabbed Applejack and unchained her. He carried her to the dungeon where she saw the school yard bullies: Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon.
“Now that you’re all here,” Spike began, “I can explain my ideas.”
“I-i-i-ideas?” Applejack stuttered
“Yeah, I was thinking,” Spike went on “I slaughtered Twilight, Rainbow, Fluttershy, and Rarity….”
A black void stood before Applejack as she heard terrifying sounds. Sounds of her friends screaming, eyes flopping on the ground, saws cutting through flesh, and the chewing of a cupcake.
“APPLEJACK!” Spike screamed, snapping Applejack out of her vision. “As I was saying, I killed them because they deserved it. In fact I gave them a test to see if they were evil or good.”
“S-s-so?”
“So,” Spike explained “I’m like god! Or Satan whatever, the point is I’ve decided to become god in the form of the judgement days!”
Applejack looked at Spike with confusion and terror.
“Throughout these days I will choose random ponies and run tests on them, if they choose the right answers they get the quick release of death, if they choose wrong they stay here and are tourchered forever!” Spike explained
Spike opened the door to Silver Spoon’s cell and dragged the terrified filly out.
“PLEASE DON’T HURT ME!” Silver Spoon shrieked
“I might not,” Spike explained “it’s up to you!” Spike pointed at Diamond Tiara “Shall I tear off Silver Spoon’s cutie mark or yours?”
“HERS OF COURSE!” Diamond shouted
“WHAT?!” Silver Spoon shouted “NO N-N-NO! PLEASE! I THOUGHT WE WERE FRIE- AAAAAAAAAAA!” Silver’s screams echoed throughout the cave and Applejack ears.
Applejack shut her eyes tight and tried not to hear. However, the screams died down and so did any sound.
“Applejack”
“Wha?” Applejack rubbed her eyes and blinked, when she opened them she saw… Twilight!
“Applejack get up” Twilight helped the earth pony up.
“TWILIGHT!” Applejack gasped and hugged her friend “you're okay.”
“Okay?” Twilight questioned “why wouldn’t I be?”
Applejack looked confused and then turned around. She was in Ponyville, Rarity was wearing a fabulous new dress, Pinkie was bouncing behind her carrying balloons, and if Applejack looked off in the distance she could see Fluttershy carrying food to her cottage.
Applejack began to cry tears of joy.
“Oh my!” Twilight exclaimed “Applejack what happened in your dream?”
“Nevermind that” Applejack sniffed “It was just a nightmare!”
“Well,” Twilight asked, “could you help me get ready for the party like you promised?”
Applejack nodded and trotted into Twilight’s tree house. Inside, Applejack saw something that terrified her… Spike.
“Oh hey Applejack!” Spike greeted as he put some books on the shelf.
Applejack ran up to Spike and bucked the ladder out from underneath him.
“Applejack?!” Twilight exclaimed “what are you doing?!”
Applejack grabbed Spike with her hoofs and twisted his neck!
“APPLEJACK!!!!” Twilight shrieked and shot her with magic
“But T-t-Twilight,” Applejack stuttered “in my dream he-”
“IT WAS JUST A DREAM!” Twilight shouted “I’M CALLING THE COPS!” Twilight levitated the landline off the table.
Applejack bolted out the door crying. What had she done, she knew it was just a dream, wh-, her thoughts were interrupted by Pinkie crashing into her.
“APPLEJACK!” Pinkie shouted with panic “I BURNED THE PIE! THE PIE IS VERY IMPORTANT! IT CAN’T BE BURNT! SO IF IT’S NOT TOO MUCH TROUBLE CAN YOU MAKE ME AN APPLE PIE?!”
“Pinkie I-” Applejack was interrupted by screams of terror coming from Twilight’s house.
Applejack and Pinkie bolted towards the house in panic.
However, Pinkie seemed to slam into an invisible force field.
“Pinkie! This is no time for games!” Applejack shouted as she burst into the library.
Spike held Twilight’s cutie mark in his hand as Twilight screamed.
Applejack then hit an invisible field just like Pinkie had, but this time worse! Applejack couldn’t move at all.
“APPLEJACK HELP MEeEeEeEeEeEeEeEeEeE!” Twilight screamed as Spike used a spoon to tear out her eye.
“I CAN’T!” Applejack sobbed and shut her eyes, crying.
“Of course you can!” Twilight shouted “AGH! WAIT NO! NOT THAT! APPLEAJACK HELP! APPLEJACK HELP! APPLEJACK HELP! APPLEJA-” Twilight’s cries for help were muffled and Applejack heard the sounds of gunshots ringing out in the air and then silence.
Day 2
Applejack slowly opened her eyes and removed her hooves from her face. She was no longer in the terrifying library, but in the gold chamber that Spike kept her. It was all a dream, Applejack was never free, she would never be free, and she would always belong to Spike.
Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara remained in their cages. They had yet to die, much to Applejack’s surprise. It had been about a day since Spike had first torn off Silver Spoon’s cutiemark. Both the fillies had their cutie marks removed, and slashes all over their backs. A fire burned in the center of the dungeon.
“Oh good morning Applejack!” Spike turned around “welcome to the judgment days!”
“J-judgment days?” Applejack looked up at the cages, next to the fillies was a blue mare, a white filly, an orange filly and “APPLE BLOOM!”
“Ah so you’ve finally noticed,” Spike grinned “Don’t worry, she’s reserved for the final day of our little event!”
“Event?” Applejack sniffed
“The Judgment days!” Spike announced “throughout the next two days, I’ll torture these four ponies, and at the end we’ll have a vote for if they should be tossed into the pit of flames to burn forever!”
Spike then picked up a sledge hammer and approached the blue mare. Applejack could now see that the unicorn was Trixie.
As spike approached Trixie began to scream “N-no-no NO! STOP STAY AWAY!” she sobbed.
“I thought you’d try and use some magic,” Spike chuckled “or your brain? Oh well, for the sin of the arrogance of your magical ability, you shall lose your horn!” Spike swung the sledgehammer into the shar horn, with a crushing impact.
Trixie screamed, as rich blood trickled out from the shattered crunch that was her horn.
Spike dropped the sledgehammer onto Trixie’s hoof, as Trixie cried in pain Spike walked over to Applejack holding a cup of Apple Cider.
“Night night, see your for judgment day two!” Spike opened Applejack’s mouth and poured the cider down her throat, and then everything went black.
Day 3
Applejack’s eyes slowly opened, an aching pain in her head. What had Spike done to her? Looking up she saw Trixie crying in her cage. Her horn was still broken, and she had several slashes on her back.
“Good morning Applejack!” Spike greeted as he held a knife in his hand “time for the ‘cutie mark crusaders’ judgment!”
“No!” Applejack cried, but it was too late.
Spike approached Sweetie Belle “now Sweetie, your sin is your horrible squeaks and singing!”
“Horrible..” Sweetie started to tear up.
“Don’t worry Sweetie, your singing voice is great!” Scootaloo assured.
“Oh you’ll be next!” Spike grinned “now,” Spike picked up a rusty knife and approached Sweetie Belle “well your voice will be no more!” He grabbed Sweetie by her hair and started slicing open her throat. Sweetie struggled and screamed, but Spike cut deeper. Once he cut deep enough, and pushed a claw into her throat and began pulling out vocal cords.
“STOP! STOP IT NOW YOU ASSHOLE!” Scootaloo cried
Spike turned around “I suppose it’s your turn now!” Spike walked over to Scootaloo and grabbed her tiny wings with his huge claws. Given the size of Spike’s claws compared to her wings they were torn off easily. As Scootaloo screamed Spike turned around “now for the final event!” Spike approached Apple Bloom, and just as her sister, had her hooves torn off.
Applejack put her head into her hooves, trying to not focus on her sister's screams of pain.
“Now for the final judgment” Spike walked over to Silver Spoon’s cage “Silver Spoon… Guilty!” And with that he tossed her into the fire. Diamond Tiara, and Trixie were both tossed in as well. However, Spike spared the cutie mark crusaders.
“Well I hope you all enjoyed my little event!” Spike sighed, as Trixie, Silver, and Diamond screamed in the background “good night to all!” He chuckled as he walked away, Applejack and the others cried in pain, and grief.
The halls of Canterlot echoed with hoof steps as Princess Luna crossed through. She could sense something was amiss, and she could hear whispers coming from the balcony. She rounded the corner and came across Princess Celestia and Princess Cadance standing on the balcony levitating two of the elements of harmony. Celestia had the element of magic, and Cadence had the element of laughter.
“Sister, what are you two doing out here” Luna approached “it’s late, this is my time to look after the kingdom.”
“Luna I..” Celestia swallowed “Equestria needs at least some of the elements.”
“Whatever are you on about sister?” Luna continued to walk up “has something happened to the elements?”
“Yes,” Cadance stepped in “we have reason to believe none of them are with us anymore.”
“WHAT” Luna’s wings spread in panic
“But we have found a way to solve this” Celestia’s eyes began to water “we can bring two of them back, but at a cost.”
“What cost?” There was silence, Luna’s heart began racing “WHAT COST SISTER?!”
“Take care of the kingdom for me.” Celestia and Cadance’s horns touched together both glowing.
“SISTER NO!” but Luna’s cries were to no avail as the horns touched and large cracks flew across the princess bodies.
The two’s bodies exploded as they screamed in agony, blood and feathers flew everywhere. Cracked pieces of their crowns, necklaces, and their horns continued shattering into tinier and tinier pieces. The pieces, blood and feathers mixed into the elements.
The screams stopped, the tears on Luna’s face stained, and for a moment there was silence. The elements hovered in the air.
Then the elements began the glow and shine, and gradually formed into their respective wielders. And all of a sudden Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle stood in front of Princess Luna. Their bodies were entirely the color of their element, blue for Pinkie, pink for Twilight. But they were there, in front of Luna. On the cold balcony of Canterlot castle.
