Everything is prepared and seems to be going alright.
Until they start telling eachother some spooky stories.

WARNING!!!
The stories told in this story aren't as spooky, creepy or scary as the tittle makes them sound!

Oh, and.. another warning! This story in my opinion is surprisingly darker than i imagined so..

Spooky Stories to Tell

Pinkie Pie was really happy to invite her best friend, Rainbow Dash to a nice sleepover. They haven't seen eachother for few days, and Pinkie thought that this will be the perfect plan to see her best friend again.

When she finished writing her letter to Rainbow, she sended it to her and waited.

Waited, waited and waited..

Then, a loud door slam could be heard from the front door of her house and boom! Rainbow Dash herself arrived!

"Pinkie! Haha!! It's been a while since i've lastly saw you!"

Both mares hugged tightly.

"Oh, it's really nice to see you too, Dashie! Now, are you ready for our sleepover?!" Pinkie happily asked her bestie.

"Ohh YEAH!" Rainbow answered, full of energy as always.

"GREAT!! Now, let's get started!"

It's been an hour since Pinkie and Rainbow prepared the stuff for their sleepover.

Pinkie Pie sat on a little blue pillow while reading Twilight's book about sleepovers and pajama parties. Rainbow meanwhile was almost impatiently waiting for Pinkie to say something to do.

"AH! There's something interesting to do!" Pinkie finally announced to Dashie. The rainbow pegasus smiled widely, not feeling impatient anymore.

"Really?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Well, what is it?"

"We'll tell eachother.." Pinkie paused to try and sound more 'cooler'. "Spooky stories in the dark!! What do you think, Dashie?!"

Rainbow Dash got a little disappointed, but still she agreed, because she thought that it'll get fun, and she knew that if she agrees, she'll make her friend happy.

"So, you got a story to tell, Dash?" Pinkie asked.

Dashie thought of a story to tell, then she decided to make up one just for this moment.

"Yeah, i do have one to tell." She said with a grin on her face. "This is the classic story of the Headless Horse-"

"Oh, i know that one!" Pinkie interrupted but stopped talking after she realized that and with an akward look on her face, she turned off the lights in the room, pulled on an lamp full of fireflies and gave Rainbow a sign to continue.

"Anyway, the tale of The Headless Horse.. A classic horror tale to tell to the little fillies.. Now, this story is a little bit different.." Rainbow cleared her throat as she proceeded to tell the actual story. "There were two creatures, an earth pony and her pet dog. They were taking a nice walk in the forest, somewhere a little far from the town where they lived. But then, the dog started to act kinda strange.. It began sniffing the air for some odd reason that the pony didn't had any idea on what was going on. It became even more strange when the dog started growling and barking at something, but the pony was sure that there was nobody around them. And then.. the dog ran away, leaving the pony all alone. "Hey, come back!!" the pony shouted, but the dog didn't come back. After some time, the pony started to hear somebody else's hoofsteps. The pony slowly started to feel scared and creeped out, until it heard the blood curling screech of the unknown creature behind it. The pony, starting to fear for it's life, turned it's head around to see who made that terrific sound. And then.." Rainbow paused to build the tension up. "..the pony saw him.. The Headless Horse himself!!" Rainbow shouted as she jumped towards her friend in attempt to scare her. Pinkie screamed then both laughed afterwords.

"That was a good one, Dash!!" Pinkie said after she was done laughing. "Now would you like to hear my story?!"

"Bring it on, Pinkie!" Rainbow sat on her pale, pink pillow, patiently waiting for the pink mare to start telling her story.

"Ahem! This one is the story of the Rocker Horse. Once upon a time, there was this band of unicorns, who liked to play the drums and electric guitars. But, one of them wanted to be the leader of the band and to be the one with the most popularity out of everyone in the band. He tried everything to get rid of his co-members, including the current band leader, Flamehoof. The things he tried included 'accidental fire' in one of the rooms, drowning, dropping heavy metal things on his co-members's heads and cancelation. Surprisingly, everything worked, all of his co-members were eliminated, except the leader. He just couldn't do anything to cause him any harm.." Pinkie paused on telling her story, got up from her blue pillow and ran towards the kitchen to get some snacks.

When the pink pony came back, she discovered that Rainbow Dash have fallen asleep. Pinkie was a little disappointed, but still, they could have another sleepover, that was even longer than the current one that they were having now.

"Well, okay." Pinkie trotted back to the kitchen to return the snacks, excluding a bag of jelly beans, and came back to her sleeping friend with two white and thin blankets. "Good night, Dashie." Pinkie whispered as she turned off the lamp full of fireflies.

"Uh.. Pinkie..? Pinkie, can you- uhh.. wake up..?"

The pink pony slowly opened her tired eyes. She was a little angry because her dream was just getting into the best part.

"What.." Pinkie yawned. "What is it, Dash-"

When Pinkie got fully conscious she jumped out of her pillow and tightly hugged Rainbow Dash, who hugged her back.

Both of them looked at the same angle in terror. And what was in that 'angle' exactly, you may ask?

"D-Dashie, why is there a giant unicorn with no skin on his face infront of us..?"

The lamp, that Rainbow turned on, was the only light sorce right now, so the mysterious unicorn looked even more spooky on such low light.

"I don't know, Pinkie. All i know is that i felt a little cold, woke up, turned the lamp on and saw him just laying there.."

Pinkie's eyes looked at Rainbow again in confusion.

"Him?"

"Yeah, at least i think that this giant unicorn is he.. I- i'm not sure."

The unicorn wasn't doing anything. Just standing there, staring right into their sparkly, innocent eyes.

Then.. a tired, whispery voice called from the unicorn's skully face.

"Tell me how i died."

Both mares got confused by that.

"You told your friend about my past. I want to hear it again. I want to remember anything once again."

Pinkie realized that the unicorn was talking to her and her story. Now she knew that the whole story had to be told.

"The stallion couldn't cause any harm to his band leader. He just kept on dodging his traps, schemes and plans to make him fall from grace. Then, the day of the stallion's final plan came to be. It was a simple plan. It involved poisoning his food, while preparing it. "Hey, Flame, here's the salad that you asked for!" The stallion called. Flamehoof was in a good mood today, so he couldn't wait on getting his hooves on that deadly salad." Pinkie paused the story again so she can eaat more from the chips she brought from the kitchen. "The salad was served and the stallion looked carefully as Flamehoof was taking a bite. But everything seemed like the plan was ruined when the band leader said, "Would you like to eat some? I insist." The stallion dropped a sweat, but he couldn't disagree, so he took two-three bites from the salad. After less than a minute, his leader felt like.."

"Like what?" Rainbow asked with interest.

"Uhh, i don't think i can tell that part of the story.."

"So.. you're just gonna skip it?"

Pinkie looked nervously at the creepy unicorn, who was still silently staring at her soul.

"Yes."

Pinkie took a deep breath and continued on.

"Flamehoof really thought that the unicorn stallion was his bestest friend, despite the suspicious disappearence of the other band members. Then, he felt that his throat is collapsing and getting dry. Flame was struggling to breathe, so he tried to gallop towards the kitchen sink to drink some water, but the stallion stopped him with his magic. "What are you doing?!" Flame struggled to ask. The other stallion answered with no remorse as his voice was getting dryer from the poisoned salad, "I won't let you take my destiny away.." In anger, Flamehoof used his last bits of magic, blasted it in the form of a magic beam at the stallion's face and collapsed on the carpeted floor. The.. stallion's face was burned off and the poison was still taking effect. Both stallions didn't make it out alive.."

Pinkie was done telling the story. She looked at the stallion again, hoping that he was satisfied with the story now being fully told. Rainbow Dash nervously gritted her teeth.

"About time.." His voice started to get even lower. "..I've never heard anyone before tell me the whole story. Thank you." And as he said that, he disappeared into the darkness.

"Dash?"

"Yeah, i guess that's enough 'scary stories' for now.."
