The Bathroom/Razor Wire Maze
A random blue light floated around in what seemed to be water, seemed to be cause the liquid itself looked a bit dirty. It seem to have what looked like to be a chain around it. All of a sudden a pony moved around in the water revealing that the pony was in a somehow still working bathtub filled with dirty water.
The pony thrashed around in the bathtub filled with dirty water punching and kicking even spilling some of it out of the tub. Which led to one of her back hooves kicking and pulling the drain plug causing the blue light with a chain around it to go down the drain.
The mare unicorn was coughing and gasping for air as the last of the dirty water went down the drain, before climbing over the bathtub and hitting the floor. Once the unicorn pony got up she was just barely able to see that one of the back hooves was wrapped in a chain that was tied to a pipe.
The unicorn grabbed the chain and yanked it a little "HELP ANYONE HELP ME!" the pony yelled before hearing a noise coming from the other side of the room which made her freeze "Is any pony there?, hey!" she called out. With no response she went back to yanking the chain a little harder this time "Am i dead? is this what the afterlife or limbo is like?" she asked herself before finally getting a response.
"You're not dead" was the response the pony got from a stallion's voice on the other side of the room.
"Who's there!" the pony asked surprised at the sudden response.
"No use in yelling I've already tried that" the voice said "Turn on the lights" the unicorn suggested "i would if i could just find them" the stallion explained.
"If i'm not dead what the fuck is going on where am i?" the mare asked "Don't know yet and not exactly sure" the stallion replied.
"Hold on a second i think i found something that could be the light switch" the stallion said before flipping a switch. The lights in the room turned on 2 at a time blinding the mare a little and revealing the room she was in was a dirty rusty abandoned looking bathroom.
Once her vision got adjusted to the lights she looked to the other side of the room and saw a white unicorn stallion with a light green mane. His fur was dirty and covered in scars and his mane was all messed up and covered in dust.
But the thing that surprised both of them was a dead dark blue unicorn stallion with a red mane that had his brain exposed from him shooting himself right in the head he was holding a gun which was on the stallion's side and a tape recorder which was on the mare's side.
The sight almost made the mare faint but luckily she was tougher than that, but almost ended up throwing up. One of her back hooves being chained to a pipe was bad enough but the fact that there was a dead body in there with them made her lose. She freaked out and started yanking on her chain as hard as she could
"AHHHH HELP US!" she yelled yanking on her chain before repeating help a few more times.

"No one can hear you" the stallion explained trying to calm down the mare. "What the fuck is this? Where are we?!" she lashed out.
"Calm down just calm down, are you alright?" the stallion asked. "I don't know yeah maybe, maybe not" the mare replied "What's your name?" the stallion asked
"My name is So Very Fucking Confused Right Now what's yours what's going on?!" the mare lashed out angrily.
"My name is Dr. Chemical Beaker i'm the alicorn of health i woke up here just like you?" Dr. Chemical explained showing the mare his wings proving he's a alicorn.
The mare sat down trying to either slip off the shackle or unhook the chain from the rusty pipe. "Wait if you're the Alicorn Of Health what do you have a degree in?" she asked.
"Everything you can think of i'm a surgeon, nurse, doctor, psychiatrist i studied everything in not only medicine but health in general something no pony has ever done, which is why Princess Celestia decided to make me the first stallion alicorn."
"But enough of that recognized him" Dr. Chemical asked the mare pointing a hoof at the bathroom body "No i don't" she responded "What's the last thing you remember?" the alicorn doctor asked her
"Nothing went to bed in my crappy apartment and i woke up in a even more crappy place a fucking dirty abandoned rusty shit hole bathroom what's your story" she concluded
"Sorry nothing much here" Dr. Chemical said pointing a front hoof at his head ''I was leaving work and heading home after that i don't remember anything.'' the alicorn explained
''Wait you're an Alicorn so why don't you use your magic to get us out of here'' the unicorn suggested.
''Whoever set up this place must've thought of that, try to use your magic'' Dr. Chemical said. When the unicorn tried to use her magic only sparks came out and when she held it for too long she got shocked.
''AH what the fuck?'' she exclaimed ''You try you're the Alicorn Of Health so your magic is a lot more powerful than mines.
"If you say so" Chemical said before lighting his horn only to be immediately shocked
"OW! see i figured out that the more powerful the magic the more quicker you get shocked" the Alicorn said before sitting down "So you're gonna tell me your name or what"
"Fine my name is Sea Swirl" the mare finally revealed "Well Swirl by the looks of these chains looks like who set this up didn't want us to get very far" Dr Chemical theorized looking at the lock on the chain. Sea Swirl realized something and came up with a theory of her own.
"CHECK FOR STITCHES!"she exclaimed before searching her bodies for scars or stitches "This is what these type of ponies do to you, they drug you and then put you in a bathtub so they can steal your organs and sell them on the black market." Swirl explained
"No pony stole your organs without the right equipment you'll be in a huge amount of pain or be dead by now." The Alicorn of Health explained
"Oh yeah forgot you're the Alicorn of Health" Swirl reminded herself. "Alright Sea Swirl first we have to figure out why were here. Whoever brought us here would've killed us by now but they didn't." Dr. Chemical pointed out,
"Or maybe they left us here to die." Swirl argued "They must want something from us but what exactly?" the doctor wondered
"Look the clock on the wall" Dr Chemical said pointing a hoof at the wall clock "Maybe that has a purpose, like we have a time limit for something." the doctor suggested. "Think i can reach the door" he said before walking over to the door it wasn't that far from him since the chain didn't even straighten up.
Meanwhile Sea Swirl scratched her mane and found a small envelope with her name on it and when she ripped it she found a small tape with the words play me on it.
"Um excuse me Swirl was is that?" the Alicorn of Health asked "It's a tape found in my mane" she responded.
When Dr. Chemical dug through his mane a lot of dust came out causing him to cough a lot before finding a envelope with his name on it and inside he found 3 things the first thing was a tape just like Swirl's with the words play me on it. The second thing was a bullet that he had no use for right now. And the final thing he found in was a key.
The Alicorn of Health used the key in the envelope to try to unlock the shackle on one of her back hooves to no avail, he then moved onto the lock keeping the chain wrapped around the rusty pipe "Come on, Come on" he strained trying to open the lock to once again no avail.
"Throw it to me maybe it'll work for my chain" Swirl suggested. Dr. Chemical lined up his shot before throwing it to his cellmate. Unfortunately just like him the key didn't work on any of Swirl's locks. "Any Luck?" the alicorn asked with the unicorn giving him a head shake.
Sea Swirl saw a tape player in one of the dead unicorn's hooves, when she reached for it the chain stopped her from going any further "Damm it can't reach'' the unicorn said straining.
"Hey use that pipe within your reach and you can use it to grab the tape player." Dr. Chemical pointed out.
Swirl grabbed the pipe that was just barely out of her reach but when going back to retrieving the tape player it still wasn't long enough, "Still not long enough, still can't reach" the unicorn told the alicorn.
Chemical looked around but couldn't find anything long on his side "Look around maybe there's something on your side that can help." the doctor suggested
The lilac unicorn looked around on her side for anything long and within her reach, she then decided to reach into the bathtub she woke up in and found the drain plug which luckily had a long string attached to it. She then tied the drain plug around the pipe and grabbed the string just to make sure it didn't fall off when trying to grab the tape recorder.
After a few failed attempts at getting the tape player the unicorn finally managed to wrap the drain plug around the tape player's string. She made sure to pull it carefully towards her, not wanting to risk losing it and having it stuck out of her reach.
Once successfully retrieving the tape player she inserted her tape in first "Lets see what this one tells us" Sea Swirl informed the alicorn before pressing play.
"Hello Sea Swirl i wanna play a game, right now you might be wondering where you are, but i'll tell you where you might be, you might be in the place you die in. So far in your life you've hid in the shadows spying on others watching their lives play out. So today Swirl you'll be watching yourself die or do something about it, Live Or Die Sea Swirl the choice is yours." the deep demonic voice said the tape ended
"I don't get it who's gonna kill me and how can i stop them?" Swirl stated her voice becoming more panicked.
"Hand me the tape player maybe it'll give us more information." Dr Chemical told Swirl "Throw me your tape i don't want to risk breaking the player." the unicorn explained
The alicorn tossed the unicorn his tape and when she played it the same deep demonic voice came on "Hello Dr. Chemical Beaker i wanna play a game every day you give other ponies information that they will die. So today you'll be the cause of death you have until 6 o clock to kill Sea Swirl the way to do that is hidden around this room and remember x marks the spot. But if you fail your wife, Chemistry Heart and colt Hazardous Chemical will die and..... you'll be left here to rot, Let The Game Begin, live or die make your choice." And with that the tape ended
"Wait hold on a second i hear something" Sea Swirl stated before playing back the tape and taking a closer listen during that pause in the recording.
On a closer listen it revealed a clue, a very faint whisper to follow your heart "I found a clue it says to follow your heart" the unicorn informed the alicorn. Dr Chemical looked around the dirty bathroom and spotted a heart painted on the toilet.
"There, might be something like a tool or a clue in the toilet" the doctor said basically asking Swirl to stick a hoof in a dirty toilet.
Sea Swirl hesitated a little before sticking a hoof into the toilet digging through it as fast as possible. But they're didn't seem to be anything in the toilet except for dirty water. "Nothing in there" the unicorn said before she started gagging. ''Wait a second the heart is on the tank so try that.'' the alicorn informed the mare.
The unicorn once wiping the dirty water off of one of her front hooves slowly took the toilet tank lid off before reaching into the tank. Luckily for her the water in the tank wasn't as dirty as the water in the toilet bowl.
Swirl found a black plastic bag, "Dang it should've looked in here first" she commented before ripping open the bag, 2 rusty hacksaws fell out. "Finally Tools!" she thought before starting to use the rusty blade on her chain.
"Hey you're gonna toss me the other one?" Dr. Chemical asked a bit annoyed.
Swirl tossed him the other rusty hacksaw and both started sawing at their chains or locks. After a while of sawing Sea Swirl's hacksaw broke "FUCK!" she yelled hitting her saw on the rusty pipe her chain was wrapped around before throwing it at a random mirror smashing a piece of it off.
After a little more sawing the Alicorn of Health eventually go tried and put his hacksaw down panting looking at the saw, he then realized something "He doesn't want us to cut through our chains, he wants us to cut through our hooves." Dr Chemical told Swirl. ''I think i may know who's behind this?''
"Wait you know him who is he?" the lilac unicorn asked "It's not some pony i know personally but a pony i know of" Dr. Chemical explained
"Well tell me who's behind this!?" Swirl responded "Last thing i heard is that The Crystal Empire still hasn't caught him and the only reason i know that is because i was a suspect let start at the beginning."
Lead Detective Twilight Sparkle and 2 detectives from Manehattan Rising Hope a pegasus stallion former Royal Guard and the other Violet Blossom a unicorn mare detective all went down some stairs with a cellar door which they were able to open with a buzzsaw and some magic.
RIsing Hope
Violet Blossom (Her eye color is pink)
And once they were all down there they found the dead body of Pony Joe a Pony Inc factory worker. Pony Inc was a company that supplies Canterlot and other parts of Equestria with manufactured goods like food and toys.
"This body isn't a fresh one as far as i can see, the victim is a unicorn stallion, seemed to have died of blood loss from cuts to his arteries. Looks like he started at the back of this razor wire filled room or maze since there's spaces and gaps and tunneled his way through surprised he made it this far." Twilight explained
"i also found this" the unicorn added picking up a tape player in a evidence bag with her magic.
When this game started Pony Joe woke up and when he got up he found himself surrounded by razor wire and a lot of it, everywhere he looked there was either a long string or short string of razor wire. Everywhere is kinda of a understatement cause Joe also manage to find gaps and spaces between the huge amount of razor wire.
Joe clung onto the fence surrounding the maze of razor wire which made him lose it "HELP, HELP ME, HELP SOMEPONY, HELLLLP!" the donut unicorn yelled as he fumbled around the starting area he was in. He eventually found a tape player and press play.
"Hello Pony Joe i wanna play a game, you're a perfectly healthy, sane middle class unicorn stallion with a factory job that pays good yet last month you ran a razor across one of your front hooves. Did you cut yourself because you actually wanted to die or did you do it to seek attention? Today you'll show me but here's the thing with your game if you want to die just stay right where you are but if you want to live you'll have to cut yourself again. Find the path out of the this Razor Wire Maze but hurry cause the door will lock in 2 hours at 3:00 and this room will be your tomb how many cuts are you willing to got through to survive Joe? Live or die the choice is yours." the deep demonic voice concluded.
Joe looked around trying to find a path the voice told him to find but couldn't find a single space or gap between the razor wire that was big enough for him to squeeze through.
Once again this made him lose it "AHHHHHHHHH!" the donut pony yelled and continued yelling as he charged in the Razor Wire Maze trying to tunnel his way to the hole at the front of the maze getting a bunch of cuts to every part of his body in the process.
"YOU SICK FUCK!" Joe yelled during his attempt to get to the front of the maze. He lost a lot of blood which eventually led him to getting tangled in the Razor Wire Maze in the position his body was found in and eventually died of blood loss as the clock hit 3:00 and the celler door locked.
His body was found 3 weeks after the game took place
"The cellar door was on a timer, it was unlocked until 3 o'clock, after that it slammed shut he was given 2 hours to escape" Twilight explained
Rising Hope took another photo of Pony Joe's body with his camera, under one of his front hooves and when looked at the picture he noticed something sticking out. When he shined his flashlight under one of Joe's front hooves he found a hacksaw lodged in there. "A Hacksaw" the pegasus stated before taking another more clearer photo of it.
"I think were gonna be here for a while Violet" Hope informed his partner

Royal Guard Rising Hope and Detective Violet Blossom are both OCs from another MLP Saw crossover called Pieces Of A Jigsaw Puzzle which has been discontinued and the writer hasn't been online since 2016
The only difference here is that their designs are my own take on them and that Rising Hope is the main one in the duo instead of Violet

Flammable Jelly & Reverse Bear Trap/Dr Chemical's Story
"The newspapers started calling him The Hacksaw killer well technically he's not really a murderer. He never killed any pony he finds ways for his victims to kill themselves" Dr Chemical explained
Starlight Glimmer, another Pony Inc factory worker woke up in a room, she found it very hard to get up and once she did saw that the room had very dim lighting in it and the main source of light being a small candle sitting on top of a safe. "Hello any pony here?" Starlight called out.
When Starlight looked down at her hooves she noticed that they were coated in something cause it looked like sweat but at the same time looked something like clear gel. The unicorn also found a tape player on top of the safe and pressed play in hopes of getting more information on what's going on.
On the tape was the same deep demonic voice "Hello Starlight i wanna play a game, if you're so sick and out of energy why do i have all these pictures of you perfectly healthy" dim lights in the room turned on revealing pictures of the unicorn in her expensive house and even using a spell on herself.
"Ever since one of your fellow co-workers got a promotion you've decided to find a new way to get rich by lying to Pony Inc that you're sick. You even went as far as to perform a spell on yourself that removes your cutie mark which also drains your energy and makes your sickness authentic so lets put your so call sickness to the test. I've injected you with a slow acting poison into your veins, the antidote is inside the safe and the code is written on the wall. And by the way that stuff on your body is Flammable Jelly so watch you step with that candle. Lets see if all the ponies you've burned with your lies will finally get their revenge live or die make your choice." the deep demonic voice concluded
"HELLLLP!" Starlight yelled front hooves grabbing onto the safe "HELLLP SOME PONY!" she yelled again looking around the room. The unicorn then tried to use a teleportation spell only to get shocked "HELLP!" she called out one last time, before resorting to the task she was given. She then tried to use her telekinesis on the small candle to pick it up and surprisingly it worked.
Starlight turned the dial on the safe before getting up but when she stepped forward she felt her front hooves get stabbed the something and when she looked down she found crystal shards scattered all over the floor "How did i not fucking see that" she angrily said, the unicorn carefully tipped hoofed over to the wall of numbers careful not to step on anymore crystal and started reading the many different codes.
She did the same thing over and over again she read a code written on the wall and then tried it on the safe each code failing. When she was on her 5th code she placed the small candle down to take a breather front hooves ontop of the safe, when she looked around to see how many codes were left to try, she flicked her mane which touched the candle and caught on fire.
"OH MY FUCKING GOD AHHHH!" she yelled freaking out, bad idea cause her flaming mane touched her head which set it on fire and it quickly spread to her Flammable Jelly coated body. She ran around the room a little before collapsing onto the floor burnt to a crisp.
Starlight's body was found with a hacksaw lodged in her flank alongside Pony Joe's body except in a different room. "Hey guys i found something else" Twilight said before walking over to the number code wall. "Look a peephole a pony must've been looking through here, looks like Hacksaw likes to book himself a front row seat to his own games" the unicorn explained doing a air quote with one of her front hooves.
"He was there at the last one but i found his penlight in this room." Twilight said showing Rising Hope the penlight, when the Royal Guard observed it he concluded "Get a rush on the prints, compare the hoofprints to another suspect" Hope requested "Copy That" responded Twilight
Flashback
"Alright everypony this patient has a inoperable frontal lobe tumor which extends across the midline which started his colon cancer if you want me to simplify that i'm basically saying he has a frontal lobe tumor across his midline that can't be operated on suitably." Dr Chemical Beaker The Alicorn of Health explained to the other doctors in the room.
"The patient has come in for a standard check up, in which we can monitor the rate of his condition to see if it's declining even by a little. The patient had-"
"His name is Radio Shack'' Nurse Redheart interrupted "Dr Chemical he's a pretty interesting unicorn" Redheart explained. The alicorn paused for a moment before he responded "Thank you for that information Redheart, as you can see our nurses and orderlies form bonds with the patients." Dr Chemical explained to the other ponies.
"Now continuing on this patient had-'' before the alicorn of health could continue he was called over to a office "Welp looks like i'm needed somewhere, you carry on" the doctor said handing one of the stallion doctors his clipboard. Once he got to the office he was greeted by a Royal Crystal Guard "Dr Chemical Beaker nice to meet you i'm Rising Hope former Royal Crystal Guard but now active one."
"I'm Detective Violet Blossom were both detectives from Manehattan but since Hope used to be a Royal Guard he decided to become one again when we were called back to The Crystal Empire and Canterlot" Violet explained to the doctor. Hope looked at the doctor's many degrees "Wow Dr Chemical very impressive and it's even more impressive how Princess Celestia decided to make you a alicorn." Hope complimented the doctor.
"So what is this whole thing about?" the Chemical asked, "Sorry to interrupt your work doc" Hope told the doctor "It's fine how can i help you 2?" the alicorn responded "Where were you between 11pm and 1am last night doc?" Violet asked. "Why are you interested?" the doctor countered "We wanna ask you about this, is it your doc?" Hope asked showing Dr Chemical his penlight in an evidence bag.
Now at the Crystal Empire Law Enforcement Station Dr Chemical was explaining his alibi to his lawyer "Wait so you're telling me you have no idea how your penlight ended up at the murder scene?" asked Count Caesar who was Dr Chemical's lawyer.
"Of course not Caesar" the alicorn lashed out "Well if you have no idea, then what were you doing last night?" the earth pony countered "I was seeing someone and before you ask no it wasn't a patient" the doctor explained
"Alright doc with you giving me you alibi out of the way as your lawyer and friend i suggest you give them your alibi now or else they won't believe you or get off your back" Caesar suggested to his client
*** Now in the present and in the bathroom
Chemical was talking about this flashback "That was a few months ago he tried to set me up for murder." he explained
*** Back in the flashback
Violet entered the interrogation room Chemical was in "Welp Dr Chemical Beaker we both checked your alibi and it holds up?" she informed the alicorn "Great can i go home now?" the health alicorn asked in a slightly annoyed tone
"Actually we manage to find some pony who survived one of Hacksaw's games, and interesting enough is that she was right under our muzzles it's actually some pony you know." the unicorn explained to Chemical "Sure since it is some pony i know."
"Alright Cadance tell me what happened in detail, as in i want to hear it from you in your words from the beginning." Chemical told Cadance "Okay it was the end of the day and a Royal Guard informed me about something."
Another Flashback
"Your majesty"A Crystal Royal Guard said getting the attention of the Alicorn "5 ponies were killed by another unidentified creature all we really know is that it wasn't a pony" the Royal Guard explained "Well are the bodies still in tact, any more clues on what or who the creature could?" the princess of love asked "Wait a second you usually care more about than the bodies and information on the killer, i mean you're the princess of love you support every kind of love." The Crystal Guard countered
Things had been hard for Cadance for the last couple of years mainly due to the death of both Shining Armor and Flurry Heart so this statement completely broke her "Well maybe living's overrated!" the alicorn lashed out her voice breaking a little. This gave the guard a hint and he decided to back off leaving the throne room.
Cadance not wanting to be reminded of the deaths of her loved ones decided to just get to bed. She got up from her throne and turned off the lights in the throne room before walking over to an elevator, pressing the button and waiting on it. All of a sudden out of nowhere a glove covered hoof tapped the back of her head. "What do you wan-" as soon as the Alicorn Of Love turned around she was smacked in the head with a metal pipe knocking her out.
***
"Remember anything after that?" Chemical asked the princess
"After that nothing, didn't remember anything, anypony. Next thing i knew i was in a death trap and forced to kill somepony. "Cadance explained
***
When the princess of love woke up she found herself strapped down to a chair with what looked like tape and she had a strange device on her head. When she tried to cast a spell she received an electric shock, she looked around and found herself in this large abandoned looking dark room. Cadance freaked out and started trying to break free of her restraints, after a while of struggling against her restraints a TV turned on causing her to jerk her head towards it.
On the TV screen appeared a picture of a plush tag saying Stichy before it moved over to a black unicorn voodoo doll with a red mane about the size of a filly "Hello, Princess Cadance I want to play a game, you don't know me, but I know you. Here's what happens if you lose my game." Stichy said in a deep demonic voice before the camera moved to a pony mannequin head with the same device on its head.
"The device you're wearing is hooked into your upper and lower jaws. When the timer at the back goes off, your mouth will be permanently ripped open. Think of it like a Reverse Bear Trap. Here, I'll show you." Stichy stated before the camera focused back onto the mannequin head. Cadance heard a ticking timer before it stopped, then suddenly the Reverse Bear Trap's mouth part opened, completely destroying the foam pony head leaving nothing but tiny bits of it.
Once that was over the camera moved a third time back to Stichy "There is only one key to open the device, it's in the stomach of your dead cellmate, look around Cadance so you know that I'm not lying. Better hurry up, Live or die, make your choice." Stichy explained before the TV cut to static and shut off
The Princess Of Love resumed trying to break free of her restraints. And once she did a metal wire tied to The Reverse Bear Trap got pulled and released which started up a ticking timer the same on Cadance heard in Stichy's video message. She immediately took notice and tried to pull the Reverse Bear Trap off her head.
After a while of struggling which wasted a lot of time. Cadance eventually resorted to finding her dead cellmate, she then spotted a yellow mare pegasus with a pink mane laying on the floor not too far away from the chair she started at. The alicorn found a knife and slowly raised it into the air.
The pegasus suddenly opened her eyes revealing that she wasn't dead "What are you-" she said in a very faint whisper only to be stabbed in the chest. After a few stabs Cadance used her hooves to spread the cut and dig through her cellmate's insides she ripped open her rib cage and dug through her organs her heart lungs etc before finding her stomach and cutting it open and finding the key.
She unlocked the Reverse Bear Trap and threw it off her head right before it activated, the mouth part opening.
Fluttershy, an animal care taker who was tested for neglecting some animals letting them die and even killing animals with a non serious disease and was now a part of Cadance's test. Fluttershy's original test was to dig through beehives and piles of animal organs to find a key to free herself from the room under 2 minutes or else toxic gas will fil the room killing her.
Unfortunately she failed after ripping apart the beehives which led to a swarm of bees attacking her. She didn't die from this and instead was forced to swallow a key and be a part of some other pony's test which ended up being Princess Cadance's.
The alicorn once getting the Reverse Bear Trap off her head she started slowly sobbing before she saw and heard a light turn on which made her go silent. All the pink alicorn could see at first was a shadow on the wall of a colt grabbing onto a scooter handlebar. She was about to call out to the colt before she heard a creaking noise and saw the shadow moving making her go silent again.
As the colt figure moved closer to her, Cadance could start seeing it a lot more clearer. Once the figure came out from the shadows and into the dim light she saw that it was Stichy the doll from the video message this time riding a scooter. "Congratulations you survived. Some ponies are so ungrateful to be alive. But not you not anymore."
"Wait so he tested you" the alicorn of health said making air quotes with both front hooves "Because you weren't grateful to be alive?"
"It was something like that" Cadance corrected him "He helped me" the princess concluded
*** Now in present day back in the rusty dirty abandoned bathroom
Sea Swirl started questioning Dr Chemical Beaker's story "Are you sure it's him?" the unicorn she asked the doctor "Yeah i'm sure" he responded "But how do i know you're telling the truth? You could be the one who put me in this room?" she argued "I'm exactly in the same situation you're in" Chemical responded.
"No wrong WRONG!" the unicorn lashed out yanking her chain with the hoof it was wrapped around. "You have one thing i don't it's information you know who did this you're probably in on this and making yourself look like a victim so you can frame somepony else." she countered before picking up the shard of glass.
"Either tell me what's really going on here or i'll throw this at you so hard it might cut you, i repeat it might cu.." before she could complete her sentence she noticed that there was 2 sides to that piece of glass. "A 2 way mirror" she informed her cellmate before chucking the pipe from earlier with cracked it and then breaking it with the shard, which revealed a camera in the medicine cabinet.
Little did they both know that on the other side of the camera a mystery creature was watching them on a TV screen "I can see you" the creature stated in disguised voice. "What is this reality TV is that what this is?" Sea Swirl asked jokingly "Don't look at me i can't help you" the mystery creature said from the other side of the camera.
Sea Swirl kept going with her sarcastic rant "Can you hear me in there? I'm having a blast, this is the most fun I've had without whip cream. Make sure you're getting everything." she said all the while throwing small chunks of rust at the medicine cabinet. "That's not gonna do anything" Dr Chemical reminded his cellmate. "What you want to leave it with it spying on us." she countered.
"You would stop that, that's why we can't cut through these chains or why you won't break the glass. Every angle where we can cheat has already been patched out by him we'll have to beat this the intended way." he informed her "You're making it sound like you support this bastard" she responded "What part of that sound like i was supporting him, what i'm trying to say is that to overcome something you must understand a perfect engine, it's how you fight disease." he explained to his cellmate.
''Now, the tape told us to find a X, it has to be somewhere in this dirty rusty bathroom, help me find it" Chemical asked Swirl "How come you're the calm one in this situation, when your wife and colt are out there? He has them too and could be doing anything to them right now thinking about that?" Swirl brought up "I am thinking about that" he lashed out
After a long silence between the two Beaker finally spoke up "Been thinking about the last thing i said to my colt"
Yet Another Flashback
Hazardous Chemical was in bed still wide awake, he knew there was something wrong with his atmosphere so he got up and out of the covers, sat at the side of his bed and stared at the darkness where the wind chimes were. There was still some light downstairs so he decided to go to his mom's room to talk to her.
Hazardous Chemical
''Chemical are you OK, can you hear me?'' asked Chemistry Heart his mom "Mom i think there's a mare in my room'' he explained to his mom "Are you sure she wasn't in your imagination?" Heart asked him "She talked to me" Hazardous stated
"Alright i'll go check your room" she said, "I want dad to check it he'll get the scary mare'' he requested "Alright since you asked come on."
They both went over to Dr. Chemical who was doing medical paper work "Beaker sorry to bother you but Chemical had a bad dream again he wants you to check his room" Heart explained to her husband "Hold on just a minute, just go to finish this paragraph." he responded before dunking the quill into the ink. After a couple seconds of waiting, Chemical and Heart were just about to leave before, Beaker finally put his quill down "Nope i'm done" he said putting the paper on the stack.
***
After checking his colt's room, Beaker turned on the lamp "See there's no pony in your room, the scary mare doesn't exist, now can you go to sleep?" he asked his colt. Before Chemical could respond Beaker's phone went off "i hate that thing" the colt commented, "Looks like it's time to go to work you know what my job is like, try to get some sleep Chemical?" Beaker told him before kissing him on the forehead "Good night" he said before turning off the lights and leaving his colt's
room closing the door.
*** Back in the present in the bathroom
Dr. Chemical was explaining this story to his cellmate, before throwing his wallet across the room landing near Swirl "This is beautiful" she exclaimed looking at the first 2 pictures of Hazardous Chemical "Thank you" he said with a nod "Thought about having more foals?" she asked him "We've talked about it, but it's pretty hard focusing on just one, don't have any plans yet" he explained "Where's your wife?" she asked.
"Behind the one you're looking at, it's my favorite" Chemical responded, When Swirl pulled out the picture her cellmate was talking about he found a picture of his wife and colt gagged and when she flipped it over she found a clue that said X marks the spot, sometimes you see more with your eyes closed
"Uh the photo you're talking about isn't here" she lied to her cellmate getting a confused look from him "Um are you sure?" the alicorn asked with another confused look, before Swirl threw the wallet back to him hiding the picture with the clue from the alicorn while he was looking through his wallet for that picture.
*** Back In The Flashback
Once downstairs his wife came up to him and asked him out of the blue "How can you just walk through life in this relationship pretending to be happy?" she asked him in an annoyed tone "I am happy" Beaker replied "I'd rather have you break down and rant that you hated me, at least there would be some passion in it" Heart countered. He then gave his wife a slightly angered tone before responding "You know let's just discuss this tomorrow alright" The Alicorn Of Health before leaving out the door
Hazardous Chemical was still trying to get some sleep like his father told him before his closet door creaked open causing him to get up and look at the closet and hearing a disguised voice say "Good night little colt" before a mystery mare brust out the closet, causing Chemical to let out a scream altering his mom.
Once Chemistry Heart got to her colt's room she found the mystery mare covered in a blanket attacking Chemical "CHEMICAL" she yelled before charging at the mystery mare.
Author's Note
The scene where Cadance disembowels Fluttershy is the only reason why the Gore tag is here the rest of this story is just blood
In this alternate universe alicorns aren't exactly immortal that's only half true they won't die of age or die from starvation and or dehydration but they can die from serious injuries like getting there jaw permanently ripped open or damage to their arteries
And if you want to argue if they can't die of starvation or dehydration why did Hacksaw say he would leave Dr Chemical there to rot? Well that's because this rule can be broken by a certain spell which the bathroom is coated in
