The Origin Of Derpy

The Origin of Derpy: Part One Chapter 4

The light from the moon illuminated the room. The night was as peaceful as one can get. With gentle breezes gliding in through the window, allowing some coolness to circulate through the room. I lifted Daze's hoof off of my shoulder and inched away from her delicately; almost leaning over the edge of the bed I gazed outside watching the night clouds go by. I looked back at Daze who let out a delicate snore with each breath she took. I began to relax and lay back down towards Daze when I began to hear hoofsteps approaching the door of the room. My adrenaline began to pump, all the while I began jerking Daze to get her out of her sleep.

"Ugh... What is it Derpy? Can't it wait until morning?" She replied half awake. I continued jerking her hoof pulling as hard as I could so she would get up. "What! What!" She said lifting herself up. I need not answer her though; the approaching hoofsteps did that for me. She looked back at me. She quicly swung the covers away from the both of us, picked me up and put me back into the closet, closing the door shut. The closet still had a crevice from before, due to how hard Cobblemane had slammed Daze into it, it now had a permanent slant to it. Daze steadied herself looking at the door. What sounded like a whole parade marching towards our door suddenly stopped. Suddenly we could hear the pitter patter of tiny hoofsteps. The door then creaked slowly opening and revealing Sandy standing alone in the well lit hallway. She stood there legs quivering, bruises evident on her face. I looked downwards from her face noticing a strap of leather around her neck studded in gems with a leash running from it.

"S..Sandy?" Daze hesitantly asked.

"Mmmm nope." The hoofsteps from earlier could be heard again revealing Cobblemane and three of his brutes.

"Wha- What have you done to Sandy?"

"Well, seeing as how you have a new roommate. And I was feeling awfully lonely in the evenings, I decided to get a pet" Cobblemane finished his sentence with a tug of the leash; Sandy moved towards Cobblemane and sat obediently next to his side. "Good girl."

"You sick BASTARD! SHE'S JUST A FILLY!" Daze's scream could be heard miles away. Cobblemane gave a signal and his guard's ran to Daze's side, grabbing both her forehooves and lifting them into the air.

"Over there that'll be good" Cobblemane said as he pointed to the wall opposite to the closet. The men nodded and moved Daze over to the wall, the whole time Daze kicked and screamed at the colts. One of Cobblemane's men was a unicorn and placed restraints around both her hooves pinning her to the wall.

"What are you doing! Stop it!"

"I told you before Daze, you forced my hoof in this. There is nothing.... I can do." Cobblemane said with a chuckle. He then let out a short high pitched whistle, Immediately Sandy got up onto the bed. She then faced her backside to Cobblemane and presented her marehood to him.

"San..Sandy, what are you doing?" Daze said choking down her tears.

"Dear me, what are you doing Sandy?" Cobblemane said sarcastically. "Oh that's right, your doing what your told. You see Daze, Sandy is now my little pet. I was shocked, even after bunking with you she broke rather easily. After 2 years of trying to break you, I broke down your roommate in a matter of hours. Pathetic really." He said as he took a huge snort of Sandy's scent.

"YOU SICK TWISTED FUCK! I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!" Daze jerked erratically against the wall.

"Not just yet Daze, not... just... yet.... I want you to watch." Cobblemane positioned his lower half over his body behind Sandy, arched his back forward putting both his forehooves at the left and right of Sandy. "Count."

"19" Sandy instantly replied with her head hung low.

"And this will make 20" Cobblemane then proceeded to thrusting himself towards Sandy. I couldn't make out what was happening from my angle, but from what I could see was with each passing moment Daze's body slowly began to sink lower and lower until her restraints were the only thing keeping her up. "Lift her head, and keep her eyes open! I want her to see this!" Cobblemane yelled at the unicorn. The guard's horn shown a bright yellow and began creating an aura over Daze's head forcing her to watch. Cobblemane finished his motions after a few minutes releasing a loud groan. Cobblemane then swatted Sandy off of the bed, knocking her to the side of Daze. "Let her go" Cobblemane ordered his guard's.

Daze fell to the floor and immediately began to console Sandy. "Heel" Cobblemane said. Sandy instantly got up knocking Daze away from her and ran towards Cobblemane, once again taking her side by him. Daze's anger began to increase.

"SANDY IT'S ME! GET AWAY FROM HIM!"There was no response. "SANDY LISTEN TO ME, GET AWAY FROM HIM RIGHT NOW!" Again there was no response.

"Good girl" Cobblemane said as he patted the top of Sandy's head.

"YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Daze yelled as she began to charge at him. She swiped at Cobblemane, only to have her assault evaded. She fell onto her face; leaving herself utterly defenseless. Instantly Cobblemane was right on top of her; In the same position he was just in with Sandy a few seconds ago.

"I warned you didn't I? Thing's were gonna get worse for you. Did you think I was lying when I said that?" Cobblemane whispered into her ear, all the while appearing out of breath. "ANSWER ME!" There was none. "You answer me when your ADDRESSED!" Cobblemane then took his right hoof and slammed it into Daze's exposed hoof. Instantly a snap could be heard.

"NOooOoOOoooo" Daze cried out in agony.

"Then why did you expect anything different?" Cobblemane paused for a moment and began to scan the room. He then lowered his head back to Daze's level. "Where's that cunt?" He said. She wouldn't answer. "Don't make me ask again." Knowing full well Daze wouldn't let him know where I was I leaned my body forward hitting the door. Instantly his ears perked up and he gave a signal to one of his guards to investigate. The guard opened the door revealing me, laying flat out of the floor.

"Derpy no!" Daze cried out to me.

"So the cunt has a name huh? Derpy... how befitting to a cock eyed dipshit" Cobblemane snarled.

"Don't hurt her" Daze pleaded to Cobblemane.

"Oh don't worry I wont lay a hoof on her... After all I can't do anything to her while she watches what I do to you." And with that his hips began to thrust towards Daze. I only stared at Daze as her face lunged forwards with every motion Cobblemane made. She didn't take her eyes off of me the whole time. She began to lip something to me and after the third time I was able to make it out. 'Don't cry' she repeated a dozen times before he had stopped.

Cobblemane lifted himself upwards releasing Daze from his grasp. His three guards walked outside of the room, lingering in the doorway to hold the door for Cobblemane. He then leaned back towards Daze. "This is only the beginning, make no mistake about that." He then proceeded to walk towards the door only to stop in the door way. "During the day Sandy is yours, I have too many duties on my plate to deal with her. During the night however, she is mine." He then exited leaving both Daze and Sandy on the floor. I looked over to the window and began to see the first glimmers of daylight. Both Daze and Sandy just laid there with doll's eye's, staring off into space.

Daze laid a few feet from where I laid. I began to position my hooves under me and tried lifting myself upwards. I fully stretched my legs and fell down. I repeated the process and began to lift myself once more, slower than last time. I lifted myself fully; my legs now fully extended I began to take my first steps. My leg's wobbled under my weight; every couple of feet falling down mid way to the floor, I would lift myself back up to a upright position. I was determined to reach Daze and Sandy, to ensure that they both were alright. I reached Daze after a few minutes of attempts. I placed my hoof on her cheek, instantly snapping her out of her state. She took her good hoof and pushed mine towards her cheek and leaned inwards into my hoof, closing her eyes to savor the embrace.

"Thank you Derpy, I'm alright" Said Daze as she lifted herself up opening her eyes, her right hoof cringed towards her body; kept off of the ground as not to add anymore pain. She then turned to Sandy, and began limping her way over to her. I followed Daze with a watchful eye, making sure she did not suddenly fall. Although it was her front hoof where she was hurt, her limp was not from the front. We reached Sandy and she fell down onto the floor next to her and began to tear up.

"I'm so sorry Sandy... all of this... I'm sorry for everything. It was the very thing I wanted to protect you from... I.. I didn't know he would do this to you."

"20 times...." Sandy spoke, Daze remained silent. "I was raped 20 times on my birthday. My virginity ripped from me, never to return. And your sorry?" She turned her head towards Daze as she finished the sentence. "I'M THAT PIG'S PET! AND YOUR SORRY!?"

"Sandy.. I...I don't know what to say... There's nothing I can say."

"Then don't say anything..." Sandy snapped back as she got up and walked out the door of the room slamming it behind her. We didn't hear any steps, just sobbing on the other side.

Daze sighed and looked over to me. "I suppose this is as good as time as any to explain everything to you."

She went into graphic detail about all that went on here. She explained how no one really knew about the orphanage, since it was miles away from any civilization. How no one could escape, or lash back in order to free themselves from here due to Cobblemane. How she and Sandy had caught the eye of Cobblemane and became his sex puppets, to use whenever he deemed fit. She told me her age (fourteen) and Sandy's (twelve), how they both were born into the orphanage and were the only family they've ever known. What struck me most is when she talked about the public displays of discipline that Cobblemane took much pride in. Every time somepony would burst out; Cobblemane would make a special example out of them, by beating them into a bloody pulp. Sometimes killing them, sometimes just barely letting them live. She didn't go into any detail about Ms. Lily though, no one truly knew about her or what she did. Everyday she would remain within her dorm and not leave it once. The only thing people knew was some filly's that entered that room, sometimes never came out.The longer she went on, the more my heart sank. After a few hours of describing the horrors and what this whole place meant she turned away from me.

"Pack up your thing's, we're going to go for a walk." She said in a dead tone. I wobbled myself up and gathered my things, then sat in my basket. "Hide under your cover's again, I'll say when it's okay to come out again alright?" I obliged by wrapping myself up again and hiding. She picked me up and we exited the room, as we walked into the hallway outside of the room, we could see Sandy lying there, curled up into a ball. Daze didn't pause or say a word to her. She just continued walking; down the staircase, through the filly hallway, and out into Zone 1. We reached the entrance of the fence where one of Cobblemane's guard's stood. Daze stood in front of him as he began to open the gate. Daze walked out into the 'acre' and then into the Everfree forest. A shadow on the ground could be seen following us as we first entered the forest. Daze went a couple yards into the forest before setting my basket down.

"You can come out now" She said as she started lifting my covers herself. She looked down to the ground and back at me. "I can't bare it Derpy... Seeing how Sandy is, I... I just can't take it. I thought" She took a big inhale "I thought I would be able to protect her... But i know now that, that's not the case. I know how she feels. Because she feels what I have been feeling for years now. I've become numb to Cobblemane by now... But seeing how she was... I mean she's his pet for Luna sake! I've never felt so helpless In all my life. That's why I need you to leave." My jaw lowered in shock at the sentence. "She needs my help Derpy, and I can't help her. There's no way that I can help you too. I just can't protect the both of you." She began looking away from me and tears began to streak down her face. "Since you figured out how to walk, I need you to get as far away from here as possible." And with that she lifted herself up and began walking back towards the orphanage. Without hesitation I lunged forward and grabbed her hind legs. Her head instantly perked up and she jerked her head back at me. "Derpy let go!" She cried. I shook my head back at her, tears and determination filled within my eyes. She may not be able to protect me, but I knew how helpless one would feel when you weren't in control of your own life, I knew I couldn't just leave her and Sandy."Derpy I'm not going to ask again!" This time she shook her legs trying to wiggle herself free of me, but I only increased my grasp on her. "DON'T YOU GET IT I'M TRYING TO PROTECT YOU!" Daze said hysterically. I dug my head into her cutie mark and wouldn't let go; I knew now what I was getting myself into, with the orphanage and all it's dangers, but it didn't matter I needed to help her and Sandy. Her whole body became jelly as she fell to the floor, crying and screaming to me.

"I CAN'T DO IT DERPY, DON'T FORCE ME TO!" she buried her face in her hooves. I released my grip on her. I got up and began to cuddle by her side, trying my best to console her. "Your going to suffer, I don't want that; you know that right?" Her eye's now deadlocked with mine. I nodded a yes. "Then why wont you leave?" she asked, her eyes still streaming tears down her face. I pointed my hoof back at her. Her eyes became obvious with shock; shock that I would not leave the orphanage because of her. She took a moment and processed the situation and my actions. "you know I won't be able to protect you." I nodded a yes. "You know the things that await you if you were to come back with me." I nodded again. "And that doesn't bother you?" I shook my head for a no. She sat there for a moment and began to shake her head up and down; with each nod increasing her speed."Your sure you want to go through with this?" I nodded a yes back at her. "Alright then, well... we better go get us some food for tonight" she said with a forced smile of worry and joy on her face; as she pointed deeper in the forest.

A few hours later

Daze snuck me back in to the orphanage. I laid higher in my basket due to the berries we had gathered in the forest for dinner... We reached the staircase that led up to our room snd Daze set me down at the base.

"We're out of the line of sight of anypony, so why don't you take up the basket to our room while I go get some more food from the kitchen and we'll have ourselves a feast." she said in a smile as she ruffled my hair. I nodded a yes and began up the stairs, the basket in my mouth as Daze walked away from the staircase leaving my view. I ran up the stairs and opened the door; causing my heart to skip a beat from the site that I saw. I dropped the basket from my mouth as I looked upon Sandy who stood ontop of a stool with her leash pinned up to the top of the cieling. She didn't turn back towards me, instead she just kicked the stool below her and began to strangle herself. Without hesitation I sprinted over towards her,forcing my back to reach her hind legs.

"What are you doing!? Let me die!" Sandy pleaded. I shook my head back and forth, flinging tears out from my eyes. "LEAVE ME ALONE! I WANT TO DIE, I DON'T WANT TO LIVE IN THIS WORLD ANYMORE!" She screamed at me as she raised her hind legs higher, evading the platform of my back. My feelings within began to swelter.

"No!" I yelped... I spoke... I actually spoke... Sandy stopped her squirming. I lifted my head to look at hers; she did the same and began looking down upon me. My first words startling the both of us, I knew Sandy hadn't known me for more than a day but this was the first time she had heard me speak. "S...Sandy... Sister" I was able to stutter out. I was still getting use to speaking so I could not convey my message in whole to her at the time. I wanted to say 'Your my sister now Sandy, I wont let you do this to yourself! Not now, not ever!". All and all though she got the message and set her hind legs back onto my back, haulting her hanging. She then removed the collar from her neck. My body now feeling the full weight of her body, collapsed causing the both of us to fall to the ground. We both got back up to her haunches looking at one another.

"wha-what did you just say?"

"San- Your.. My sister. Don't die. Please!" I just began repeating please over and over again after that sentence, closing my eyes; I couldn't bare looking at her anymore. My repetative chanting was silenced when I felt two hooves wrap around me. I opened my eye's shocked to see Sandy hugging me.

"I dont wanna die...." Sandy whispered to me softly as she tightened her hold on me. "I never wanted to die... I just didn't see any other way..."

I returned the hug, comforting her the best I knew how. A few minutes later Daze entered the room, catching us in full view of our hug. Sandy loosened her grip and I did the same. She wiped her face clear of any tears, looked towards Daze and began to smile.

"What in Equestria happened?"

"My sister saved my life." Sandy responded choking herself up. She then pointed to the collar and leash that hung above. Daze quickly put two and two together. Sandy then got up; and walked towards Daze. She stood in front of her for a moment then rubbed her head against Daze's chest, nestling within her.

"Your not dead to me Daze... I'm sorry you I ever said that to you.

Astonished, Daze took a moment, then leaned her head around Sandy. "No, I should be the one to apologize, I should have warned you... I should have... I don't know, we could have done something to prevent it maybe.. I.. I don't know. I'm sorry for the pain I caused you Sandy, Luna know's I never wanted any of this for you." Daze began to weep and console her.

*clap clap clap*

"Excellent performance tonight girl's, truly marvelous... But, I'm afraid both me and Sandy won't be able to stay for the after party tonight." Cobblemane sounded off in the most sophisticated tone he could muster. He leaned in the now open doorway.

"NO!" Both me and Daze shouted off in unison while Sandy remained quiet.

"Do you have any idea what your doing to her!? You're not goin-" Daze's sentence was cut short form her noticing Sandy getting up. She approached me and gave me a quick hug then whispered in me ear.

"Don't worry, I'll be fin. Beside's we'll see each other again tomorrow right?" she said with a forced smile. I only nodded, my mouthung open and my eye's in shock. She then proceeded to do the same with Daze, only she began to protest.

"Sandy what a you saying!? You can't be serious!" Sandy only nodded; she then took her place by Cobblemane.

"I love you both" And with that Cobblemane slammed the door shut. We remained in the dark until both sets of hoofsteps were gone... I love you too Sandy.

About 10 miles away in Manehatten Nurse Redheart lay in her bed, back arched forward leaning over a picture of Derpy.

"I'll find you some day Derpy, I swear it." A tear fell from her chin onto the photo. She then put the encased photo back onto her night stand that stood next to her bed; rolled over and closed her eye's. "I swear it."
