The Equestrian Dead

As the trees began to move around the cabin, where only Zecora and Applejack remained, something else emerged. One of the trees was split open by the Evil, and out slithered Mayor Mare, torn, bleeding, and unmoving. The woods freed her as she limped out of the Everfree, moaning. She made it out and into a small town, the sign reading, "WELCOME TO PONYVILLE". She saw the sign and grunted at it and trudged along, clawing the sign with her massive nails. She went down the path when she heard two voices. Angrily, she stared at the source, two little fillies.

"Alright Diamond Tiara," Silver Spoon worried, "Are you sure this is worth it? I'm tired and it's late..."

"Don't be such a wuss!" Diamond Tiara demanded, "We need to sneak to the Blank Flank's cruddy little hideout and wreck it! Show 'em who's boss!"

"Umm," said Silver Spoon, "Diamond, look..." and pointed behind her. They turned and saw in the shadows the Mayor.

"Oh!" said Diamond surprised, "H-hello Mayor! We're just...planning a surprise!"

Mayor stood still and twisted her head around grunting.

"Um... Is s-something wrong...?" cautioned Diamond, "We little angels can help you!"

"I...I don't think this is right..." trembled Silver Spoon.

Diamond Tiara whispered, "Oh shut up. We need to look good in front of the Mayor!". She looked back at the Mayor as stepped out of the shadows. "OH MY!" Diamond Tiara exclaimed, "You're hurt! Silver! Go help the Mayor!".

Silver Spoon grudgingly trotted to the bloody mare. "It...It's okay... We'll...help..." she looked into her eyes and shrieked.

The Mayor lunged at Silver Spoon, digging her claws into her throat and tearing out her aorta. Silver Spoon immediately died, blood purging from her neck.

Diamond Tiara screamed into the air and ran behind a rock for cover. Mayor, uninterested, limped forwards into the quiet little town. Diamond Tiara sprinted to Silver Spoon's dead body and grasped it.

"Damn it all!" she cried, "W-what in Tartaus was THAT?! Well, least *I* am alive. Besides," she smirked, "You were never the strong one."

As she trotted off with a disgusted smug look on her face, she felt grimy claws grab onto her hoof. She turned and saw Silver Spoon dragging herself onto Diamond Tiara. She tore Diamond's hooves off as she tumbled to the ground. Silver Spoon stood over her and slobbered on her terrified and pale face.

She screamed, "T-THOSE EYES!" as Silver Spoon ate her face off. Pulling herself up from the bloody pile of tissue, she looked beyond her shoulder and heard a noise. Bass music. Coming out of a small cottage. She could make out the diminished noises of a cello as well. Silver Spoon sprinted to the cottage roaring like a banshee. And thus, the citizens of Ponyville fell like dominoes....
