POV: Twilight Sparkle

Twilight Sparkle and her friends Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash bearers of the elements of Harmony trotting down what little dry patch of the swamp deep in the everfree as twilight was reading 'How to travel in swamps guide' with her head stuck in it followed by Rarity watching her step as she carefully places a hoof on what little dry steps. She knows not to filth her coat disgusted by the swamp or being there entirely as Applejack and Fluttershy trot slowly behind her and pinkie pie bouncing around giggling and rainbow dash above them fly looking around concerned as being in the gave them all an anxious feeling before Rarity spoke up.

"Twilight darling, are you sure that were heading in the right path at all, as much as I don't like the boggy scenery I rather not spend any moment in the everfree for long."

"I have to agree with Rarity on this one twi', even if we traveled far in the everforest before this place is still a dangerous place, even though Zecora lives here we never traveled this far in or deep.

Applejack adds looking around in the dark of the forest around them the feeling of being watched by something in the trees and dark around them as twilight looks back away from her guide to see the her friends looking around with their guard up anxious as she sighed to feel the same way as they all looked to her.

"Look girls the map brought us here and where ever the map shines theirs a problem that somepony needs help or a problem that friendship cant fix.

twilight says as it seems not to ease the anxiety as rainbow dash swooped in with a cocky smile as she but twilight could see she's trying to hid it as she hovers over the group. "Maybe is somepony stuck here or just lost I'm sure that we will be in and out of this forest before you can sa- AAAAAA"

Rainbow Dash screamed, bumping her back onto something behind her and quickly zooming straight behind Applejack shaking scared. Twilight uses her magic to illuminate and reveal what she bumped into, only to be a moss and vined covered statue. As and they looked back at Rainbow Dash, she chuckles to herself, getting a small giggle out of the others as they all went to examine the statue removing the vines and moss, revealing a cracked but still standing morel of four ponies, two being pegasi and two earth ponies a family morel and next to them more stones aligned side by side some cracked or broken by time and others covered in moss and vines. Twilight looks at the four statues, and the others go around looking around at the other stones aligned near the statues, seeing some words carved into the stone moral reading aloud 'In honor and memory of the Noble family of The Great Stitchings along with there house hold staff thou there live lost they will be missed greatly.' Twilight gasped as she looked at the others a bit worried as they all looked to be sharing the same emotions as she had.

"What's is this place twilight?" Fluttershy asked quietly as all the girls looked over at twilight seeing her ears go down to a fold as she her face had a small frown on it making there anxiety raise a bit.

""This is a grave and not just for theses four but for all the stones around, its a cemetery for an old noble family and their staff. But I never heard or read anything about this noble family under the name 'Stitchings' before.

The other five ponies looked at themselves just as confused, fused, and concerned as Twilight before Pinkie being behind the four statues talked out, grabbing the attention of the five ponies as she points her hoof over to a part of the stone moral. Right before Twilight could speak to stop her.""Hey, there's something written here reading; "Rise the forgotten one of this cursed family, by order of the 'Great lord' your slumber is over, and your work is not over by his command."

Pinkie read aloud, and a cold wind blows as the dark around them seems to darken eating the light that as they all quickly stood together, as a low deep tone laughter echo's around them and the wind causing them to shiver in as the eyes of the statue glowed red before fiery flames burned out of them and faint but echoing screams let out from the statues. Screams of pain and sorrow as even words of begging for the pain to stop before the statue moral started to make the ground shake only for it to stop as the laughter muffled sounding from the statues or under them. Twilight looks at pinkie angrily as Pinkie giggles nervously before saying "Oopsie." Looking back, Twilight slowly followed by her friends, walked up to the muffled laughter of the moral and leaned over to hear the laughing more clear only to instantly gag and walk retreated at what she and her friends call the worst smell they ever smelled. Rarity fainted pinkie's face turning a sickly green Fluttershy and Applejack holding Rarity while covering their noises as Twilight used her and rainbow used their wings to cover their faces at the rotting smell. Only for a giant clawed hand broke out from the dirt, making Twilight and the other four screams as came crawling from the mud was a big hornless half-burnt unicorn head emerged groaning as it crawls out from the dirt under the statue.

POV: Dr. Stitchings

Dr. Stitchings laid there stitching up the large slice he made on his chest with s sewing needle and some thread he found along with what remained of his white-collared shirt and black vested suit, seeing the white shirts sleeves damage he slowly folded the hoof cuffs up to hid the damaged sleeves while still keeping the style, looked at his claw smiling at the gift of having it being able to properly garbing things and have a really tight grip as he sat there fixing his body and attire, before a small flame light and glowed across the room as he slowly gotten on his hooves and claw staring at the tiny flame, it reminded him of how it ended, the site of his blood sisters as he teared them apart, his blood mother who he burned and left in the dark he was raised in, and his father butchering into pieces, he slowly walked over to the flame, as soon as he go closer to it he could see it grow larger and brighter and revealed four shadow figures standing in front of the fire, he couldn't see there faces but by there bodies shapes he knew not only where he was but who was facing him and all he did was smiled lowering his head and gallops at them charging straight forward.

The four ponies tried to block him, grabbing his giant body. Still, thanks to his massive size, he galloped, knocking one of the ponies to the ground as three held on to him, barely able to slow the giant blue unicorn still gallops to the flame, it grew larger and larger, knocking off the shadow ponies as the screamed in pain as he reached out his claw to grab the fire finally looking back at the shadow ponies. He saw their faces only making him laugh and seeing the faces of his dead blood family, seeing their eyes gouged out from their sockets and all their bodies still having their injuries seeing his blood family, his sisters, mother and father burnt and in pieces all of them as Stitchings laughed before being engulfed in the flame and teleported in a coffin waking up to the a muffled female voice speaking "Rise the forgotten one of this cursed family, by order of the 'Great lord' your slumber is over, and your work is not over by his command."

He laughed and started to bang on the lid of the coffin with his claw and hoof as dirt slowly filled in, and he began to dig through the dirt, laughing, shoveling dirt, pulling and worming his way through the earth, finally punching through the dirt with his claw as he feels the open surface along with feminine screams as his claw was surface.

'Must have been some grave digger pony or some fillies playing dare at the grave"

Stitchings thought to himself as he pulls his head through the dirt groaning as his head slides out from the earth and slowly crawling out hearing the females screams were loud and behind him, crawling from the dirt and slowly standing on his hooves and claws before turning his head and snarl at the loud screams only to be quickly surprised to see a group of six tiny mares, five screaming at him as one was fainted over with two holding her, looking at them before snarling back and inhaling slowly and letting out a growling his at them making them silent quick and followed by him heavily coughing they held each other in their hooves looking at him as he stared them down standing upright and shaking the dirty of his coat and vest suit, he looked over himself before looking back at the group of six tiny ponies seeing them shaking in fear lowering his head to get a closer look at them, only to see them back away and holding their breath as a pink ones face was turning to a sickly shade of green.

"Ok, now that all the needless screaming is over, might I-" "Hold it right there buster just who the filly tails think you- oh you smell jeez."

Seeing the blue rainbowed mane pegasus zoomed surprising him at such a level speed getting up to his face snarling only to quickly fly a few hooves back gaging but still getting close to his face snarling at him, but he knows she was afraid staring into his eyes, he stared into her eyes. 'so much colors, so much life, and yet the a faint of hatred in her, interesting.' He thought to himself as he stared into before smiling eerily as he then snarls back at blue pegasus as she then retreated behind the orange, blond earth pony as they were all shriving in fear which made him chuckle, as the purple alicorn slowly and shakily stepping forward looking up at him.

"S-s-s-sor-rry s-sir...I-" She stuttered as her eyes went almost pinpoint dot as she stared at the giant pony as he sighs shaking his head only to slowly turn and limply walk away from the groaning before looking around at his surroundings seeing the manor was no longer around and seeing the statue of his blood family only to slowly chuckling before turning to slow deep tone laughter before using his claw to striking the heads of the four making them crumble into pieces as he laughs as more manically echoing in the forest as the five ponies watch in pure terrifying fear.

"I'm free, freedom from that dark pit of hell, finally now time to get my work ya fucking buckheads." he turn to face the five ponies as the white purple maned unicorn slowly gotten up and looks around seeing her friends staring at the giant zombie looking pony smiling manically at them only and gasping dramatically at him, standing up right and regaining his posture and stares down at the six tiny mare ponies and stares specifically staring down the violet purple alicorn and spoke in a rough deep tone in his voice.

"Now that my 'excitement' is contained how about an introductions would be an important matter, shall we? you shall call me Dr. Stitchings, curse blood of the noble family of 'what was' the great stitchings the one and rightfully only living dead pony in this land, this is still equestrian golden age correct?"

He watches the tiny alicon shakes her head, regaining herself, and stutters to talk as she looks up and down the giant pony seeing his burnt dark blue ashy coat, his rear hooves being skeletal, and the right forehoof replaced with what looked like a black dragons claw made of bones and then his face, she stares at his right side of his face being burnt do the bone and his right eye now being up close to him seeing that it had a pure pale white center surrounded in a dark pupil and then just red all around in the socket itself as it glowed faintly as it was partly covered by his black charcoal mane along with both of his ears burnt down to his head and finally was his horn, as he watched her examine him before finally speaking.

"H-hello s-ir I MEAN Dr. Stitchings, when you s-say 'living dead' you mean like a z-zombie correct?"

He nodded his head and curled his lips to form a smile at the tiny alicorn as he stared into her eyes before staring away. He could practically see the sun of life in her eyes but yet see curiosity to a very dangerous extent, wondering how far for knowledge she will go to, maybe she would along with her entourage could be of use, after all, he thought to himself as she talks ignoring any stuttering rambles she made. Only caring to listen to the names of all six ponies and them being something of 'elements of harmony' or some ridiculous name of a club, the urge to use his magic and squeeze the very light from her eye was strong along with butchering her companions. Still, being a zombie, he couldn't feel it only except snarl at the alicorn, which made her stutter more as she was backup by her other companions; he lets out a sigh before turning his back at her as she watches, scared.

Twilight Sparkle a purple mane and coat alicorn and bearer of the element of Magic a companied by; Rainbow Dash a sky blue-coated rainbow mane pegasus bearer of the element of Loyalty, Pinkie Pie a bright pink coated earth pony with a bright pink poofy mane bearer of the element of Laughter, Rarity a white-coated with a dark purple curvy mane unicorn and bearer of the element of Generosity, Applejack an orange and yellow blond maned earth pony topped with a brown country hat, bearer of the element of Honesty, and Fluttershy a shy yellow with a long pink mane pegasus bearer of the element of Kindness.

"Twilight, Princess Twilight Sparkle and her friends the helements of armoury or whatever you little gaggle fuck is, I don't care even if your the very goddess sun and moon themselves, just leave me alone to my work or ill have six new blank canvases or patients to take care of, hehehe, do you understand my tiny pony?"

"A-and if we don't? Rainbow Dash added as he lowered his head down to their eye level hold on of his sisters statues head in his clawed hand and with a slow crackling sound crushing the stone head in his claw before smiling and dropping dust and pebbles to the ground.

"I beg, dare, and even ask you to doing it without a second thought, Hell spat me out in to Tartarus as, Tartarus didn't want me, what makes you think that some mare-toruage of six tiny little pathetic ponies do anything let alone shoot me with a rainbow or even beat me to my knees?" He snarles a sinister smile at them all as the backed up away from the giant zombie as he chuckles to himself. "Though I jest being dead is not fun let alone dying again, so ill place nice for now my dear... 'friends'."
