Jeff was certainly a happy camper. Having each of the girl at their third - and in Scootaloo's case, fourth - kill was surely an accomplishment. They seemed very happy with their progress, and Jeff was too. It was becoming quite a bit easier to move, and therefore kill, in his new form, and even his tail wasn't bothering him as much as it used to. It seemed to be looking up to be a fine day, when he awoke to a cloudy morning with a pretty spring breeze.

But that was until, around lunch time, Applebloom came in crying. She ran up to Jeff and buried her face in his side, sobbing uncontrollably. The other too followed close behind, looking concerned. Questioningly, Jeff looked up, pushing his sunglasses down to, silently, ask what was wrong. "Applebloom was getting bullied...And, well, It got really bad..." Sweetie started, looking upset.

"Like, REALLY bad. Ugh! I just wanted to turn around an cow-kick that Diamond Tiara in the face!" Scootaloo finished, angrily, stopping her hooves on the floor. Applebloom, head still buried in Jeff's side, sniffled.

"Ah'm sorry for bein' so whiny, but what she said really upset me...." She mumbled, looking up at Jeff. He tsk'd, gently rubbing is muzzle across her face. Darn, this place must really be getting to him if he was acting this kind. But...Well...Maybe it wasn't so bad, to have a couple friends? Especially such gifted little killers....

"What did she say?" He asked, quietly. Applebloom just wined an shook her head.

"She called her a filthy inbreeder, that's what she said!" Scootaloo shouted, angrily, after a few moments of silence. Applebloom whined again. Jeff let out an angry snort,his tail flicking to the side. "It's all right Applebloom, we know you're better than that. Better....better than her." Jeff, mid-sentence, had come up with an idea. His lips twitched in a smile, hidden by the one already there. Applebloom sat up and nodded, seeming to steel herself.

"Ah'm okay, really. It just...got to me, that's all." Applebloom said, looking down. "Its like, She's gettin' worse with every passing day, getting more mean. An Ah don't understand." She looked back up at Jeff, and then sighed.

"Well, there's always an easy way to take care of mean kids, you know." Jeff said, a gleam in his eyes. The three girls looked over at him. "We can always, you know...Kill her." He said, smile growing wider.

"But, I though it was nice to kill people, Jeff... Why would we do it for her...?" Sweetie Belle, asked slowly, seeming unsure.

Jeff hesitated for a moment, just a split second, before smiling again. "Well, There's two sides to everything, Sweetie. Two sides to death as well. Death can be a dark, gruesome thing as well as a happy, celebrated one. To kill someone so young is to wrong them, rid them of all days to come, both happy, and sad. But to kill and old mare, who has lived her glory days and is slowly wasting away, why, that's a good deed. Give them something exiting fort heir last moments. Killing a mid-aged pony is, well, in the middle. They might have already reached their peak, or they could still be building up to it. It all depends.

"Either way, if we kill this mean filly, this 'Diamond Tiara', She will never bother you again. And, she will get what she deserves, for treating you so terribly." Jeff concluded, smiling down at the three sitting fillies, eyes so wide in wonder. Eyes, so ready to be tainted, filled with the malice of the world. But, not yet. For now they could believe Jeff's petty little lies and twisted truths, until they were so deep in they wouldn't care for morals anymore. Jeff grinned at the idea.

"So...Are you in, or not?"

The girls looked at each other, then nodded. Together, they said, "We're in."
