The Flim Flam Return

True Intentions

Flim and Flam’s true intentions

It had been two years since the elements of harmony had run Flim and Flam from sweet apple acres and since then their business had fallen. The two brothers had gone from number one in the cider business to dead last. The two brothers could no longer sell even a pitcher of cider for on bit.

Their business went bankrupt and soon they had to sell their super speedy cider squeezy 6000 to whoever would buy the contraption and the patent. The two had lost everything from their home in Manehatten to the respect and admiration from their peer’s, life was not good!

“Brother I’m hungry!” Cried Flam as he climbed out of the shambled hut made of sticks and leaves. Flam had seen better days; the stallion looked as if he had not had a decent rest in months. His fur a dark stained yellow from dirt and grime. “When are we going to get back into our fame? I’m tired of living in the forest and I’m tired of sleeping on the ground!”

“ENOUGH!” shouted Flim as he stomped his hoof on the ground. Flim was just as bad if not a little better. “I am sick and tired of hearing you do nothing but whine and complain! If you have yet to notice I’m in the same predicament!”

“I know brother but I’m tired! I haven’t had a bath in forever and let’s face it we stink!” Flam sniffed the shambles of clothing that he had left and cringed his nose.

It was true the brothers had been running avoiding every pony they saw the fear of being hazed or stoned continued to rush through their minds which meant that they had continued through heavily forested areas for nearly a year.

Only every so often would one of the brothers dare risk venturing into town to steal food and drink from open windows always remaining in shadow. At first neither of them were any good at it getting caught more often then naught and being chased out of cities and towns and sometimes even further. Their clothes torn from running through brambles and thickets, large scars appeared on both the stallion’s legs and chest.

Flam had suffered the worst of it though, He was chased into a dense area of forest that no light had shone through and while trying to evade his pursuers wound up not watching where he was headed. A large scar ran from where his left ear had been all the way to his right eye. Unfortunately for him the incident had rendered his eye useless.

“Brother,” sighed Flim, “I know I’m sorry but were outlaws now. I know your hungry thirsty and ready for a bath maybe even some medical attention but we have to avoid detection from everypony that’s out to get us!” he exclaimed.

“We wouldn’t be this way if those ponies from Ponyville had they not interfered weed have a farm to call our own and so many sweet, sweet apples to eat!” cooed Flam

“Yes it is all those ponies fault’s isn’t it?” Flim murmured as he began to pace back and forth.

Flam stared at his brother as he paced for a good twenty minutes always watching him closely. Since the brothers were together from the beginning Flam knew what ever facial expression meant even the tiniest detail giving off his brother’s idea. And then it happened. Flim turned to face his brother and Flam noticed a look in his eye, a look that hadn’t been seen in his brother’s facial expression since he had murdered their parents.

“B…Brother you’re not thinking…” Flam stared at his brother in sheer awe as his brother’s face as his lip curled into a grin. “Brother are you sure about this?”

“Yes brother our time is NOW! We are going to exact our revenge! Those ponies are going to pay!” Flim’s smile turned into a loud cackle.

…

It was a warm summer’s day as Twilight-Sparkle was walking thought the Ponyville market place. A cool breeze blew through her mane. Twilight stopped and took a moment to enjoy the cool breeze and the sunlight. After a brief moment she continued on her shopping list her purple saddle bag bouncing on her thighs.

“My today is a wonderful day,” Twilight exclaimed a smile stricken across her face. “Now what am I missing? Carrots, lettuce, cupcakes…”

Suddenly a familiar face came zooming by stopping just in front of her. It was Rainbow Dash. The Pegasus seemed to be worn out and exhausted.

“What’s the matter Dash?” asked Twilight not sure to the reason why the blue Pegasus was in such a hurry.

“F…F…F…” gasped Rainbowdash

“Just take your time Rainbow,” Twilight chuckled, “I mean what could be so important that…” Rainbowdash cut into Twilights sentence.

“Fluttershy she’s gone!” gasped Rainbow Dash “I found this posted on the door!” She held the letter up in front of Twilight.

Twilight scanned over the letter as quickly as she could noticing that it was addressed to her.

“I don’t understand,” said Twilight dazed about the letter, “Who would have taken Flutter Shy?”

“I don’t know!” Exclaimed Rainbow who was now very frantic, “But whoever did will be sorry when I’m through with them!”

“Now hold on Rainbow lets not get ahead of ourselves maybe Fluttershy went off to see her friends I mean come on. It’s not like she doesn’t go see her animal friends very little!”

“I guess your right Twi … sorry.”

“Its fine,” cooed Twilight, “That’s what friends are for.”

…

Fluttershy woke to the sound of grinding metal and the smell of oil and grease. Even though she could hear everything she was still in complete darkness. Her hoofs were bound down by ropes. She tried to scream but was in such disarray that her vocal cords couldn’t even must a squeak. Fluttershy stopped and tried to remember the events that had lead up to this moment.

“Ok I went out to the market to get some num num’s for Angel,” she thought cautiously fearing what she will remember. “And then a hoof covered my mouth and I blacked out.”

She tried to wriggle her way out once again this time feeling the sting of a few broken ribs. She tried to cry out in pain but once again she was unable to.

“Aha! It looks like our first customer is awake brother,” chortled a familiar voice.

“Aha so it seems!” said yet another familiar voice.

Fluttershy heard the two mystery pony’s approach her. One of the pony’s lifted the blindfold from Fluttershy’s eyes as the other set a bag of tools onto a table. Fluttershy looked around to see if she could find out where she was. Unfortunately for her this place was new to her. The building was made of tin siding to her left about five machines none of which she knew what they did. To her left a corkboard strung up by nails and decorated with saw blades every shape and size.

“Don’t worry your pretty little head,” purred Flim as he caressed Fluttershy’s hair. “Soon this will be all over and then we shall move on to the next customer!”

Fluttershy watched in desperation as the two brothers laid the tools out onto the table assorting different size knives, pins, and even spikes. Some tools she didn’t even have a clue what they did. Scared out of her mind Fluttershy tried wriggling out of her restraints tears pouring out of her eyes. The brothers just stared admiring her will to escape.

“You know brother it would be a shame to let a beautiful thing go to waste,” cackled Flam as he approached Fluttershy. “Why don’t we have a little fun?”

Flim and Flam then proceeded to undo the straps making sure the pony was unable to escape. They then flipped the helpless pony over and re-strapped her onto the table she was on. Fluttershy looked down noticed that the table she was laying on had a drain. Flam had noticed her eyeing it and chuckled.

“It’s for any unwanted fluids,” hummed Flam, “Y’know just in case you urinate or defecate!” Both brothers began laughing in a harmonious tune.

“Well brother shall we get started,” Flim looked at his brother his eyes burning with curiosity and adventure. This has not happened in the stallion’s life time since he was just a young colt. Back then the brothers would dissect insects and small animals an easy life it was!

“Yes we shall! We wouldn’t want to make the other customers wait to long now, would we?”

They once again they laughed in unison an almost horrible choir of hate and despair rolling from these two stallions. At that moment Fluttershy realized what was going on, came to the realization that this was her end. Fluttershy began bawling her tears uncontrollable and out of fear her bladder began to drain.

As soon as her bladder had emptied the last of her urine the brothers were ready to begin they each picked up a saw from the table and stood on each side of the helpless pony. They each grabbed the wing on either side of the pony, they then released her bonds. Still holding her wings the two brothers took their wing and fully extended them. They each then took their saws and began cutting their way through the poor harmless Pegasus’s wings.

Fluttershy tried to scream, the pain unbearable as the saws slowly came down and slowly cut through the bone and tendon inside the wings. Her heart now beating at a rapid pace Fluttershy began wriggling again this time aggravating one of the stallions.

“YOU WILL STOP MOVING THIS INSTANT,” screamed Flim as he picked up the bag and struck the Pegasus across the head with it leaving a gash in her forehead.

Fluttershy cried even more her tears mixing with the blood seeping from the now open wound in her head. Shea once again tried to scream but with no prevail.

“This is it,” thought Fluttershy, “I won’t get to see angel, or my friends ever again!” With that memories began flooding through Fluttershy’s mind a whirling mass of memories filled with her friends and her beloved Angel.

The Pegasus went into an instant state of shock allowing her body to block the pain as the two sadistic brothers continued to torture her. After the wings the brothers proceeded to cut off her hoofs. Slowly cutting through muscle, bone and fat they removed each of her four hoofs they then cut into her chest removing all her insides until nothing was left of the mare except her skeletal remains.
