The scene was horrific, one pony ripped limb from limb with their insides pulled out. It was like looking at a nightmare come to life. The grass was drenched in blood.

"Got anything from the wounds?" Note Taker asked.

A short yellow maned nurse turned to him and spoke.

"Yep. All injuries inflicted correspond to those found on the couple out in the forest." She said.

Note Taker, nodded and turned around.

"But..." the nurse started again. "They do not match those found in the Royal Castle's dungeons."

"What do you mean?"

"Despite the attacks being almost identical there is one clear difference."

"That being?" Note asked as he raised his eyebrow.

"The bite marks are different." The nurse pulled a file over and opened it before laying out three distinct pictures. "This attack and the first attack have identical bite marks while the one in the dungeons is different."

She pointed at the pictures. They were different, Note Taker noticed the teeth spacing on the second attack where much more spread out unlike the the other two.

"Is it possible there are two of these things?" He asked.

"More than possible." The nurse said with a hint of fascination.

Note Taker left the nurse to geek out over her findings. He pulled out his pipe and started to smoke.

"Thought you gave up on that thing?" Said Autumn as he walked up next to Note.

"Well in times like these we need a chance to calm ourselves."

They both fell silent for what seemed like hours but was only a few seconds.

"You really think there's two of those things out there?" Autumn asked.

Note toom the pipe from his mouth a blew the smoke from his nostrils. "All the evidence points to yes."

"What if what we are dealing with is not an animal? But rather something much, much worse."

" Then what are we dealing with, monsters?"

Autumn sighed and looked to the ground.

"I don't think we have a word to describe what we're dealing with."

Another long silence fell over the two.

"Who was the victim this time around?" Note asked suddenly.

"Twenty four year old, Cherry Cake. Cause of death... undeterminable." Autumn said in a heavy tone.

"Fucking hell. What ever these things are... they must be stopped."

Looking down to the ground Note took in the sight of a massive hoof print, a hoof print that didn't match that of a pony, horse or a dear.
