Crimson Bubbles Part One: Cheerilee PONYNAPPED

"She saw her true love go to waste, now she must make haste, here comes the crimson bubbles right before your pony eyes."

---A broken heart--

......As she walked through ponyville, flowers in her mouth, she hopped along happily, yet clumsily, for she was not like other ponies. Then she abruptly stopped dead in her tracks, a look of horror and anguish painting itself upon her face. There her special somepony stood, flowers in his mouth, with another pony. The flowers in her mouth slipped from their perch, then her look of anguish and horror twisted into seething rage, agony, and revenge. She knew that she-pony had to go, if she couldn't have her special somepony then nopony would.......

....................................
One Month and a half Earlier...

"Watch it! You feather brain!"

Crashing into her was a rainbow maned Pegasus, they both fell over, she heard the groaning of the rainbow maned Pegasus as she rolled off of her. "Oops! Sorry Rainbow Dash!"

"Watch where you walk, for Celestia's sake, Derpy!" Rainbow Dash said shaking herself ridding herself of the dirt from her mane. "Somepony like me could get hurt! I need to keep in mint condition for the Wonder Bolt tryouts this Friday! It's going to be so awesome!" Rainbow Dash said letting out a small fan girl squeal.

"Sorry." Derpy mumbled, her eyes walled out as usual.

"Heh, that's okay Derpy! It isn't your fault after all that you cannot see right, those derpy eyes of yours must totally be annoying, anyways...gotta dash!" Rainbow Dash said before flapping her wings and jumping into the air rocketing off at the speed of sound.

"What's wrong with my eyes?" Derpy whispered to herself sitting down on the paved dirt road she had been trotting on.

"Pardon me!"

Derpy turned around to spy none other than Rarity the unicorn, who was using unicorn magic to hold up some bags. "Sorry, Rarity!"

"That is quite alright Derpy, now could you move a little bit to the left, dear? You are kind of in the way, and as you know a fashion diva like myself needs to get back to work!' Rarity used her hoof to shoo Derpy out of the way. "Derpy you might want to keep walking, or at least get out of the way, you are in everypony's way!" The white unicorn trotted off leaving a distraught Derpy to her sorrows.

"Does everypony really think I'm only in the way?" Derpy mumbled, feeling rather down hearted by this point. "Maybe they are right? Maybe there is something wrong with me!" Worry gripped her heart like a vice. "Hey! I know! Twilight Sparkle is a smart pony! Maybe she could use her magic to get rid of the problems with my eyes?" With a new found resolve she hauled herself to her hooves and took off into the air, heading for Twilight Sparkle's Library. The gray pony slipped into the Library and trotted over to where Twilight Sparkle was hovering over a scroll, using her unicorn magic to write something with a quill. "Twilight Sparkle!" Derpy called over to the purple coated unicorn.

"Oh, hey Derpy!" Twilight said, not looking away from her scroll. "Look, Derpy, the Library is closed, did you not see the sign?"

Derpy looked perplexed and her gaze flickered over to the window of Twilight's Library, she saw the sign in the window and a small blush appeared on her. "Sorry I didn't notice it because..."

"Because of your wall eyes? I understand! It isn't your fault, nopony should have to be wall eyed, it is a dreadful and such a shame that you are! Too bad I don't have any spell to fix that! Maybe you should see a doctor? Maybe a doctor will know what to do? I may be great at unicorn magic but I'm no eye surgeon, that's for sure." Twilight said, turning to look at Derpy, she blinked her eyes as she saw the crestfallen face of Derpy. "You okay?" She asked, abandoning her scroll for a few moments and walking over to the saddened wall eyed pony.

"Why does EVERYPONY keep calling me wall eyed?! I can't help it!" Derpy didn't wait for an answer, she turned tail and bolted from the Library leaving a rather confused Twilight Sparkle standing at the door way watching her vanish down the road.

Derpy didn't stop until she was forced to a stop by crashing straight into a tree, she fell flat on her back, she realized that she had took refuge at Sweet Apple Acers. The wall eyed Pegasus struggled to her hoofs and shook herself off, only to hear very familiar voices. Her ears perked up as she realized it was Rainbow Dash and Applejack, they were sitting a few yards a way having a picnic, along with Pinkie Pie. Derpy heard laughter ringing from the three ponies. Derpy watched from the safety of the trees, listening to what they were saying, she knew spying wasn't the most polite idea but she wanted to hear what they were saying.

"Who wants cupcakes?!" Pinkie said excitedly bouncing up and down before grabbing the cupcakes out of the picnic basket, she placed the cupcakes out in front of them.

Rainbow Dash's eyes went wide and she blinked and said suddenly," World.... getting..... dark!" With that the rainbow maned Pegasus fainted.

Applejack narrowed her eyes and shook her head. "No thank yeh Pinkie! I'll pass!"

"Okey dokey lokey! More for ME!" With that, Pinkie took the whole plate of cupcakes and wolfed them down in one big gulp.

Rainbow Dash had woken up to the horrible sight and her blue coat suddenly took on a hint of white. "Pinkie Pie you animal!" She mumbled and sat up. She was quite nervous so she thought she'd lighten the tension with conversation. She could remember two things that happened today that were hilarious. "Hey you guys know that wall eyed Pegasus pony right?"

Pinkie Pie had just taken out more cupcakes from the picnic basket and was about to stuff one into her mouth, she opened one eye and lowered the cupcake away from her mouth. "Who? Oh!!! I love guessing games! Uhm....don't tell me...uhm uhm..." Pinkie Pie discarded the cupcake and put it back on the plate and stood up dancing and bouncing all around the picnic blanket. "Oh! OH! I KNOW! Derpy right?"

"That's the one!" Rainbow Dash said, inwardly sighing with relief that Pinkie Pie discarded the horrid creation that is known as the cupcake.

"What 'bout her, Rainbow?" Applejack asked of the rainbow maned Pegasus.

"I ran into her today and remembered something funny that happened to her yesterday! Okay so get this, so I was up clearing the clouds and then who should I see but Derpy walking along! I saw that banana peel from five miles away, and, well I guess I can't blame her, it's those darned derped up eyes of hers that is causing her all this trouble. Anyways, so she walked right onto the banana peel and flipped right over on to her back!" Rainbow Dash was in tears and laughing when she finished, lying on her back now.

Applejack and Pinkie Pie both doubled over in laughter, holding their stomachs. Little did the three unsuspecting ponies know, however, was that Derpy was hiding amongst the trees. Listening to the whole story.

Derpy's eyes went wide and walled out in their sockets. She sunk to the ground and covered her ears feeling ashamed. ' Everypony hates me! Is there nopony in Ponyville, no in Equestria even, that loves me?' Thought the crying Pegasus.

"Uhm...." Came a gentle voice, "Derpy? Are you...uh... okay?" A yellow hoof was gingerly placed upon Derpy's shoulder. It turns out to be none other than everypony's favorite shy pony, Fluttershy!

Derpy jumps up abruptly and wails out, straining her lungs," WHAT DO YOU WANT?!?! ARE YOU LIKE THE OTHERS?!?!" Her derped up eyes were spinning in their sockets as she gave Fluttershy a crazed, almost feral look. "ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE FUN OF ME TOO!? HUH?!?! HUH?!?!" She spat out, shoving her face into Fluttershy's until they were touching noses.

"EEP!" Was all Fluttershy managed to squeak out, before Derpy shoved past her and stormed off. Fluttershy stared in the direction that Derpy took flight in, before she heard the voice of Applejack.

"Yeh, but y'all know that everypony loves Derpy! She's a mighty great riot! Whenever I'm feelin' down 'bout myself and everythin' I just go and see what Derpy's up ta and then I feel much better when I see her doin' somethin' funny--" Suddenly Applejack stopped talking as she heard the squeak of Fluttershy coming from just inside the shelter of the trees. "Fluttershy? Is that you?" Asked Applejack before jumping to her hoofs and trotting over to the trees.

"Y-Y-Yes..." Fluttershy said before flying down to meet her friend.

"Yeah, I'd know that squeakin' from anywhere!" Applejack said smiling. "What's got y'all spooked anyways?"

Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash had followed along after hearing Fluttershy's squeak. "Yeah what's up Fluttershy? Oh, did you see a monster?!" Pinkie Pie's eyes were wide as she quickly looked around, her eyes rounded like the moon. "Okay no monsters here!" The pink pony said smiling a mile wide.

"A-A-Actually no..uhm...you know that Pegasus pony...uhm Derpy? She was here just now, and she looked upset so uhm..I tried to ask what was wrong and then she started to howl something awful at me and then she rocketed off..." Fluttershy explained in a softer tone then usual.

"Derpy? Here?" Rainbow Dash said, quizzically tilting her head to one side.

"Y-Y-Yes..." Fluttershy nodded slowly, before she turned to look into the direction Derpy had fled too.

Later....

Derpy walked around, Ponyville, head down, as if a gray and angry storm cloud hung over her head. She continued to walk as the clouds in the sky were being pushed by Pegasus ponies to create a storm. Soon she was soaked with rain, her hair sopping wet as she trotted along the somewhat abandon streets. Most likely, everypony but her was out and about. She continued, head down, before running into somepony. She fell over on to her back and onto the dirt road. Her eyes now fluttered open, strange she couldn't remember closing them as she fell, she gazed up and before her stood none other than Doctor Whooves, who had a saddle umbrella.

"Oh my..." DR. Whooves said looking down at Derpy, whom was soaked. "Dear me, you simply must get out of this rain, you'll catch a cold!" Dr. Whooves shook his head, helping Derpy up.

Derpy felt her cheeks slightly grow hot as she was pulled up from the cold and soggy ground. "Oh...thanks..." This was defiantly new to her, finally somepony was kind to her!

Dr. Whooves smiled and then he took his umbrella saddle off and placed it upon Derpy's back. "There."

"What about you?" Derpy asked, quite shocked at this stranger's generosity.

"I'll be fine, it is only a short walk in the rain, now come on." Dr. Whooves said guiding Derpy towards a white building.

Finally out of the chilled rains, Derpy stood in a warm office, while Dr. Whooves went to fetch a towel. Derpy looked around the rather dim lit office, she saw a large desk, with a chair, and a stack of papers were perched on the corner of it. Suddenly the gray Pegasus felt slightly dizzy. She shook her head and felt an onslaught of a headache starting. Great, just great, just what she needed. Suddenly her skin slowly began to heat up, a blush formed on her face, then her world began to spin furiously, the heat of her skin flared and she stumbled on her hoofs only to trip and land on her side. Then darkness gripped her and then there was nothing but black.

....................
......................

"Oh! You are waking up! Good! Good!" A voice reached her from inside the dark place she was hidden in, Derpy slowly opened her eyes and stared up in wonder. She saw Dr. Whooves hovering over her, looking down at her.

"What happened?" Asked Derpy as she attempted to sit, the dizziness returning but not as bad as before.

"You fainted, a while ago actually, three days ago...almost four." Dr. Whooves explained, before gently pushing her back down. "You need to lie down, you still are a bit under the weather."

"What time is it?"

"Almost one in the morning."

"You've been awake for almost four days watching over me?" Derpy asked, her mouth standing slightly agape.

"In a matter of speaking, yes." Dr. Whooves said, a smile on his face, though anypony could clearly see he was dead tired. He looked as if he was about to fall flat on the floor and never get up.

"Why did you stay up? You could have slept.." Derpy said, her voice was groggy and quiet.

"Not when I have a patient that is burning up." Dr. Whooves told her. "How long were you out in the rain anyways?" He asked her seriously.

"Uh...an hour or so? I can't remember..." Derpy said honestly before rolling over on to her side. "Wait? So, I've been asleep for almost four days?"

"Yes." Dr. Whooves told her firmly. "You hungry?"
As if in response to Dr. Whooves, Derpy's stomach barked in hunger.

"I'll take that as a yes." Dr. Whooves said before trotting off. He came back with a daisy sandwich and offered it to Derpy.

Derpy sluggishly propped herself up and took the sandwich, from Dr. Whooves, and gulped it down quickly.

That was just the beginning of the action that set the insanity into motion.

..........................

Derpy woke up one morning, inside her apartment. She was now taking up residence in Ponyville. She had moved down from Cloudsdale for two reasons, Dr. Whooves and she was working as his assistant. So she had to be close to the hospital of course. She could remember all the picnics and hang outs and all of the memories that they shared. Just like that one time when Rainbow Dash came in after she had fractured her left wing and Dr. Whooves finally trusted her to do something on her own. At first Rainbow Dash had protested, however it was a complete success after Derpy treated the fractured wing. Suddenly something occurred to her, the reason she was so excited before she went to bed. It was Hearts and Hooves Day! "OH BUBBLES!" Derpy cried. Jumping, she stumbled off of her bed and face planted upon the floor. Derpy jumped to her hoofs and gasped," I don't have anything to give Dr. Whooves!" Panicking, the gray Pegasus bolted out of her apartment and out into Ponyville, forgetting to brush her pale blond mane, in her haste. She rushed into the flower stored and quickly picked out some roses, daisies,

and tulips. Perfect for Hearts and Hooves Day, so she thought. She skipped out of the shop, in search of Dr. Whooves. This year he was going to be her special somepony...As she walked through ponyville, the flowers in her mouth, she hopped along happily, yet clumsily, for she was not like other ponies. Then she abruptly stopped dead in her tracks, a look of horror and anguish painting itself upon her face. There her special somepony stood, flowers in his mouth, with another pony. The flowers in her mouth slipped from their perch, then her look of anguish and horror twisted into seething rage, agony, and revenge. She knew that she-pony had to go, if she couldn't have her special somepony then nopony would. Yes, Cheerilee must go. Only Derpy could have Dr. Whooves....

Derpy's world...shattered. The tears rained down, just like the rain did the day Derpy first met Dr. Whooves.

....................
.....................
......................

A couple days later......

A note arrived at Cheerilee's door step. The dark reddish purple coated earth pony picked the letter up and took it to her table. She opened the letter and read it.

Dear Miss Cheerilee,
Meet me outside the Everfree Forest at sunset, for I have a "Surprise" for you. I'll be waiting for you, my special somepony.
Love forever and always, Dr. Whoovs.

Miss Cheerilee's pink hair with light pink stripes, flowed behind her like ribbons as she dashed about her home, giddy with this thought. ' Oh my Equestria, is he proposing to me?' She could hardly wait! Oh, she had to get ready and quickly! Thank Celestia it was a Saturday!

..........................

"Ohhh Dr. Whooves?!" Cheeilee's voice sang out, as she walked along. She stopped just on the edge of Everfree, her voice echoing through the trees around her.
Rustle...Rustle...Rustle

"Dr. Whooves?" Cheerilee said, " Is that you? Where are you hiding you silly stallion you, if this is a joke then--"

Suddenly out from the trees, something lunged. It dropped down onto Cheerliee's back and pinned her upon the ground. It forced Cheerilee to look up, then a cloth was shoved into her face. Cheerilee tried screaming but to no avail. The cloth was scented with something strange, it made Cheerilee feel woozy, as she tried to struggle but her kicks grew feeble as time grew on. Horrid images flashed through her mind as she remembered all those horror movies she watched about ponies being ponynapped by strangers like this! She didn't want her life to end like this, oh dear Celestia please somepony save her from this nightmare! Slowly she faded into unconsciousness.

.............
..............
..............

2 days later

"Mmmnnh... mmh? MMMMM?? MMMMM!!!" Cheerilee had woken up in a dark place. There was only stone walls, no windows. She felt something on her mouth. It was duct tape. She started to panic and shriek with fear. Then a shadowy figure came upon her. "Oh, you're awake. Sorry about this." Cheerilee was too stunned to even move. The mysterious figure ran a hoof over her stomach and sides, making her shriek more. "It's okay," the mysterious figure said calmly, patting her stomach, then chest, then head. "I'm going to take care of you." Cheerilee started to whimper. Then the figure came over and removed the tape from her mouth. She started to gasp. Before her she saw Derpy Hooves, then the fear subsided and turned into laughter.

"Oh Derpy! I'm glad to see you!" Cheerilee had tears running down her cheeks, yet she was smiling. "I'm so glad Dr. Whooves sent you to save me! How'd you find me? What happened to the thing that ponynapped me, where are we any way......?" Cheerilee rambled on and on, yet Derpy said nothing, only smiled in a peculiar way. Cheerilee's voice faded and she looked up at Derpy, in confusion. "D-Derpy?"

"Poor, sweet, naive little teacher." Derpy shook her head as if disappointed, yet the eerie smile lingered upon her muzzle.

"W-What is going on?" Cheerilee asked, her voice losing the laughter it had before. A look of terror plastered itself onto her face.

"Aren't you just...dying...to know?" Derpy's voice rang out like a sickening lullaby. With that being said, she slipped away and returned with some tape in her mouth.

"Derpy what is---MHNNN!" Tape was slapped down onto Cheerliee's mouth before she could say anything more, then her arms were forced behind her back and taped. Then her legs were taped, now she lie down on the cold unforgiving floor. "MHHNNN!!!-----MHHNNNN!---" Her screams were too muffled. Sadly for Cheerilee nopony would hear her nor would anypony be coming to her rescue.

"Sorry, Cheerilee!" Derpy said, giggling as she went over and stroked Cheerliee's mane with a hoof, singing. "I have errands to attend to, I'll be back later!"

Cheerilee began to hyperventilate, as she struggled upon the ground like a fish flopping on a dock, gasping for air. The once strong Cheerilee broke down into hysterics. "MHNNN!!!!" She wailed, yet it was muffled from the tape so it came out more like a whimper of a dog.

"Now, now Miss Cheerilee, don't you go and cry yourself to death! The fun will begin when I get back!" Derpy cackled as she bent down and whispered into Cheerilee's ear, "I'm bringing some special guests..."

As Derpy left, Cheerilee's muffled howls and sobs were heard behind her.

Chapter 3: Crimson bubbles

CRIMSON BUBBLES PART THREE/CH THREE: Crimson bubbles

A brown Earth pony pushed open his office door, he slipped into the dim lit room and closed the door behind him, dismay chasing after him like a disease. Suddenly he noticed his desk chair was turned backwards facing the other wall, he blinked and wondered who in Equestria had been in his office. He could have sworn he had locked his office door before he left. Only he had a key to his office he and...and...

The chair slowly turned, there a gray Pegasus sat with a plastic jar of bubbles, she held a bubble wand in one hoof. Her head was tilted downwards, her blonde hair streaming down over her face, blocking her eyes from view.

"Derpy?" Dr. Whooves said timidly," You are back! Thank Celestia! Do you know where Twilight and the others went?"

Derpy sat there, doing nothing but humming gently to herself, gradually her humming became louder and louder. She slowly dipped the bubble wand into the plastic jar and stirred the contents. A content sigh whistled from her mouth and she raised her head, she then placed the bubble wand in front of her mouth. Using a hoof to swipe the hair of her mane off of her face she then took a deep breath and exhaled into the wand. The bubbles took a circular shape and were blown out into the room, tinted with a red color, the bubbles floated and danced through the air.

"Hello...Doctor...I've been waiting for you!" Derpy's giggle was that of one gone off the deep end, her derped eyes were puffy and red. Two red streaks travelled down each cheek, upon her muzzle, as if she had been crying.

"Derpy? Are you alright what happened to you?" Dr. Whooves whispered, his heart pounding, his instinct was to flee yet he ignored it. His skin was itching over the concern of the events that had flown by so quickly in the past few days. "Why..why are those bubbles red?"

"I'm fine Dr. Whooves and they are crimson red, actually." Derpy said in her normal bubbly voice, yet something was off about it. Something wicked laced the words she spoke. She blew into the bubble wand again, this time closer, she held out a hoof and a bubble landed on it, suspended upon it. "Have you ever eaten a bubble, Doctor?" Asked the gray Pegasus pony, looking up at him in a quizzical way.

"Good Equestria, no. Why would I do that Derpy, Derpy what the hay is going on? I heard from Fluttershy you--"

Derpy held her hoof up as if demanding silence, the bubble still perched upon her hoof. She shook her head and the brought her hoof to her mouth and used her tongue to lift the bubble off of her hoof and onto her mouth. The bubble rolled into her mouth and settled on the back of her tongue where it popped, she slurped down the liquid that it left and squealed in delight as her body shivered with the deliciousness that flooded through the inner core of her stomach. She held the wand up to her mouth and whispered softly, "These are bloody crimson bubbles! Mhnn juicy, they taste just like cheery cherries!"

Dr. Whooves stomach churned and he groaned, his heart raced. He let out a cry as pain punctured his heart, he hunched over in pain and almost grew sick.

That was when Derpy rose from her perch, she stood tall, her two front hoofs on the desk her two back ones on the chair. "My, my, my..." She soothed," You seem ill doctor...let me make you...better.." That was when Derpy lunged.
...............................
................................

"AGHH!" Twilight Sparkle cried, a rattling shock galloped though her insides, she collapsed on to the ground, her breathing shallow.

"Twilight! Stop!" Applejack cried out. " Yer gonna hurt yerself even more then yeh already are!"

"I can't give up, I have to...to try...I'm not about to sit here while Derpy roams free! Somepony has to stop that insane Pegasus!" Twilight struggled to her hoofs, and she teetered. It took all her will power to keep standing.

Suddenly out of no where Derpy appeared, dragging a bag along with her. The bottom of the bag was soaked in blood, the rank stench filled the dungeon. The blood soaked out onto the stone floor and left a trail of crimson behind.

Cheerilee would have jumped up and would have raced away screaming until her voice was lost to the world forever. However she was nailed down and had no choice but to stay put.

Derpy discarded the bag besides the table and walked over to Twilight Sparkle. "Get over here." She wrapped her arms around Twilight Sparkle and yanked her forward. She undid the chains on Twilight Sparkle, yet keeping the shock collar firm upon her neck. She turned with Twilight in her arms and tossed her over to Cheerilee and pranced over to her shock collar remote control. "Twilight, I want you to perform a spell on Cheerilee that will keep her heart strong for a few hours, so I can torture her! I want to hack her into pieces, but I want to hear her suffer while I do so. If you don't do as I ask, then I'll kill your friends right here and right now... then I'll kill your cute little dragon too!"

"You STAY away from Spike, and where are we Derpy?!" Twilight's voice was like a dagger, she narrowed her eyes and gazed into Derpy's deranged orbs.

"You being the smart one I thought you would have figured it out. You've been here plenty of times before, you just haven't been under it.... you came here the first time to find your precious elements of Harmony!" Derpy sneered in disgust.

"T-The ancient ruins of the castle of the royal pony sisters!" Twilight gasped out as she struggled to her hoofs, she suddenly felt weak at the knees her legs felt like jelly. She looked around at Derpy and saw the shock collar remote and knew if she refused a painful shock wave would be sent through her...she would also loose her friends as well. She had no choice, there was nothing that could be done. She turned to face Cheerilee and stared deeply into here eyes, tears brimming to the surface, feeling dirty and guilty, she was helping somepony carry out a heinous and murderous act. How would she ever be able to forgive herself after this? "I'm sorry.." She whispered to Cheerilee and gathered the last bit of strength she had to cast the spell, she felt hot pain rip through her blood vessels as she was shocked. She gasped out in pain, yakking up some blood, yet she kept going until the spell was complete. She stumbled and fell on to her side, and lie deathly still.

"TWILIGHT!" Screamed Twilight's friends along with Cheerilee.

Derpy howled in gleeful laughter, she jumped down from perch and came up to Twilight Sparkle's side. "Aw, don't disappoint me Twilight! I thought you'd have more fight in you!" Derpy bent down to check for a heart beat, she about leaped for joy when she found it. Twilight's heart was fluttering in agony, jumping, sometimes skipping beats. It was trying to keep pumping, trying to keep Twilight alive. Derpy knew however, that it was futile. Twilight would die all the same, her heart would stop beating all the same. Either it gave out or Derpy would be the one to silence it, forever. "So, you do have some fight left in you after all good...good." Derpy smiled as she dragged Twilight back to the chain and hooked her back up to it. "Now where was I...oh yes...." Derpy slowly flew over towards Cheerilee, dancing and gliding through the air that was heavily tainted with the foul scent of blood. She landed next to Cheerilee and picked up the knife she had abandoned earlier and placed it next to Cheerilee's side, lying it down. Then suddenly the clops of hooves could be heard from above, and the voices of Celestia and Luna could be heard themselves, they seemed to be reminiscing about the old day. Derpy tensed up, for the love of buck she had not expected Celestia and Luna to show up, hay! They'd ruin her hard work! Suddenly Cheerilee let out a scream, Derpy reacted with lightening fast reflexes. Taking the sack that was soaked with crimson blood she slammed it over the screaming pony. "SHUT THE BUCK UP!"

Cheerilee was silenced when a bloodied brown hoof slipped out of the sack and landed in her mouth, she was too disgusted to utter a scream.

Before the mane six could utter out a cry for help Derpy turned to them and pressed the button on the shock collar. The pain from the voltage caused the six ponies to collapse, writhing in silent pain upon the floor. "Shhhh my pretties." Derpy soothed, she waited in silence, her own heart pounding praying that Celestia and Luna had not heard the screams from the dungeon.

....................................................
.......................................................
.........Mean while.................................

"Did you hear that?" Luna said stopping, she could have sworn she heard muffled and distant screams from somewhere nearby.

"I thought I heard something but...." Celestia trailed off letting her gaze sweep the ruins of the run down and dusty castle. "Now I'm not certain I did or not..."

Luna perked her ears, straining to hear any sign of the screams from earlier yet there was no trace of the wails that had once filled the air. "I guess we must have imagined it."

"Yes...let us get home, we have a meeting in Canterlot soon, we are having a vote on whether or not to repave Ponyville's roads with stone." Celestia said, the two took flight in the air and when they should return horror would meet them in this place.

...................
...................
...................

Silence flooded the dungeon, Derpy's heart slowed to a calm. "Hehehehe, even though they heard you, they still won't be here to save you!" With that being said she trotted over to Cheerilee looking white as a ghost. She giggled viciously as she saw why Cheerilee was mortified. "Oh, I see you have met my little friend!" Derpy cooed and yanked the bag away from Cheerilee and dumped out the contents of the blood soaked bag. Out slid Dr. Whooves, his side held a deep cut and sticky blood clung upon his body.

Tears bubbled up in Cheerilee's eyes. "You've KILLED HIM!" She shrieked her voice like claws upon stone. "You've KILLED DR.WHOOVES! NO! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!" Her voice was like high screeching bells, as she thrashed against the nails that bound her to the table. Agony zapped through her arms and legs, yet she continued to yowl in despair.

The Mane Six sat crying, silently, to themselves. They watched this tragic even unfold, the six of them huddled together trying to comfort one another. They watched as Dr. Whooves's bloody body slipped from the bag, the scene played out before them. As if it were a grotesque and twisted horror film that projected its images into their minds and burned it deep.

Cheerilee's words of loss became nothing but shrieks of agony, the pony thrashed upon the table, flailing.

Derpy mocked her with a delightful laughter of sing song bells, the pegasus pony trotted of to Dr.Whooves's body and scooped him up. With a stroke of pure, insane, genius she chucked Dr.Whooves's limp body at Cheerilee. Cheerilee felt Dr.Whooves's body crash into her and now the crimson coated body draped limply over her. Dr.Whooves's head was tilted up at her, the body of Dr.Whooves lie on it's crimson smudged side, the blood of Dr.Whooves trickled down Cheerilee. She shuddered as the sticky substance painted her blood red. Cheerilee's wails of despair subsided into quiet sobs. As gross and morbid as this may sound, if she could have moved her arms she would have wrapped them around Dr.Whooves and hugged him tight. Never to let go, yet seeing as she was nailed to the table all she could do was touch her nose to Dr.Whooves's forehead, that was until Dr.Whooves's corpse was stripped away from her.

Derpy held up Dr. Whooves like a rag doll and moved him like a puppet. "Ohhh look at me! I'm Dr. Whooves! I pretend to care for somepony, pretend to love her...then I up and run away with a SMARTIE TARTIE!! HAHAAHAH!" Derpy mocked Dr. Whooves by mimicking his voice, however the venom of her voice leaked into the last bit and over rode her mock. Suddenly the limp features of Dr.Whooves animated to life, he was moving on his own! Derpy let out a shriek of shock and dropped the brown earth pony.

Dr.Whooves hit the ground with a groan and he lifted his head. "What...where?" He choked out, spitting up some blood before turning to look at Cheerilee nailed to the table, Derpy looking down sinisterly at him. "Derpy? What in the hay is going on?" He demanded, his voice feeble, as he tried to stand, he grunted and tried to use the wall of stone to help pull himself up. Vainly, however, the effort had been. The earth pony's hoofs slipped off of the wall, his head hit the side with a 'cracking' sound and he collapsed into a sit, leaning up against the wall.

"Oh...an operation, Doctor. Operation: Revenge!" Derpy hummed, seeming to get over her initial shock that Dr. Whooves was alive. This however played perfectly, according to her ultimate design. Now Dr. Whooves would suffer even longer, watching her tear Cheerilee piece by piece into a bloody pile of blood and gore! She clapped her front hoofs together, giggling delightfully. "Oh I am so glad you are awake for this, Doctor! I cannot wait to show you how many things I learned from you while watching you perform surgery upon many ponies!" Derpy left Dr. Whooves leaning against the wall and went over to Cheerilee," Now, now, miss Cheerilee! The PARTY can finally begin! What party? Why your farewell party...your...PERMANETE farewell party!" Derpy began to cackle and giggle as she reached for the knife that she placed next to Cheerilee. She dangled the knife above the terrified earth pony, Derpy flicked it back and forth between her hoofs, a few inches away from Cheerilee's round eyes. Derpy relished in the burning terror she saw reflected from Cheerilee's tear filled eyes. "Hush now, nopony say anything! This is delicate work! Hey Dr. Whooves, watch me work, you'll be proud of me!" She said softly her voice echoing through the silent dungeon. Derpy slowly lowered the knife down upon Cheerilee, she placed the blade gingerly on Cheerilee's stomach. "You scream, Cheerilee I only dig deeper, so chin up and steel yourself! Better clench your teeth now!" Derpy plunged the knife an inch deep into Cheerilee's skin, blood splattered up and onto her face, Derpy licked the blood from her muzzle. "Mnnn...tastes divine, maybe I shall use some of your blood for a muffins recipe later!" Derpy said soothingly.

Cheerilee sucked in a screech, the knife drilling into her innards was like a brand of fire, blood spurted out of the new wound and she clenched her teeth, looking up at Derpy with narrowed eyes.

Derpy continued with her endeavor, the knife following the shallow cut in the shape of a heart. She slowly pushed the knife deeper into Cheerilee with each incision.

Cheerilee couldn't stop herself she began to scream bloody murder, blood pushed itself up her esophagus and she spat the salty crimson substance up and on to her chest.

"Oh dearest me, what did I say about screaming, shame!" Derpy let out a tsk noise and drove the knife even deeper, she heard it hit bone as the knife ripped into the rib cage of Cheerilee. The steel knife scrapping upon bone let out a terrible wail that rebounded through the darkened dungeon. "Soon it will be time to count dead bodies, like sheep! Don't worry my pets, all of this will be over soon and you can sleep at ease forever under the Ancient Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters! This is such a shame you know, this all could have been avoided. Now DR. Whooves tell me is the old me as dead as dead can be? The answer is buck yeah, this is the new me! I'm a monster...the monster you made and now this monster is going to kill the one you left me for and then..the monster will kill you." Soon Derpy had finished cutting out the outline of the heart, she placed her hoofs over the cut and hooked them onto Cheerilee and squeezed in the heart shape, she squeezed even more, hearing the sloshing of blood and the squishing of muscle.

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP!!!!!!!!

Derpy pulled the heart shape off of Cheerilee, smiling psychotically.

Cheerilee let out a blood chilling cry of agony, now lying with her innards exposed.

Dr. Whooves placed a hoof over his mouth and went pale, bile rose in his throat and he threw his head to the side and became sick, the smell of blood and puke stank up the dungeon, the resulting smell was unpleasant.

The Mane Six huddled together and looked away from the vile and sickening scene, they shivered as the air filled with a nasty chill.

Derpy placed the knife next to Cheerilee who had her mouth open now in a silent scream. Derpy retrieved the heart shaped cut out and trotted over to Dr. Whooves and stood in front of him with a smile," Ohhh DR!!! Look at what I made you!" Her eyes wide and her voice sounded insane and high pitched, scratchy even.

Dr. Whooves looked at Derpy with sheer terror in his rounded eyes. "MY CELESTIA! " He cried out and tried struggling away from Derpy as the gray pegasus placed the heart shaped cut out in his front hoofs. Dr. Whooves threw the heart shaped cut out away from him flinching, the heart shaped cut out landed in front of The Mane Six with a sloshing sound.

Fluttershy began to cry loudly and she buried her face into Pinkie Pie's frizzled fluffy hair. Pinkie Pie let out a gagging noise and buried her own face into Fluttershy's hair. Twilight buried her face into Apple Jack's hair, Apple Jack buried her face into Rainbow Dash's hair and Rarity buried her face into Rainbow Dash's hair as well. Rainbow Dash covered her eyes with her tail. They couldn't bear to look at the heart shaped cut out piece of Cheerilee that landed before them.

Derpy let out a giggle and placed her hoof in Dr. Whooves's mane and stroked it lightly as if soothing him. "Awwww you didn't like my little gift? I'm so sorry I'll try harder next time!" Derpy left Dr. Whooves and went back over to Cheerilee and looked over her, she gazed upon Cheerilee's ravaged body and trotted off from the scene only to come back with a straw and her bubble wand. She dipped the babble wand into Cheerilee's exposed blood. Derpy then blew into the bubble wand and crimson bubbles began to gracefully dance around the dungeon. Derpy took flight and bit down on each bubble letting the warm and salty taste spark on her tongue before swallowing the liquid. She returned to Cheerilee and placed the straw into the crimson substance and began slurping it down. She then blew with the straw into Cheerilee's blood and made the surface bubble, rippling. Derpy then chucked the straw and shoved her head into Cheerilee's open wound and she then thrust her muzzle into the sticky blood and began to suck it down, she pulled away blood dribbling down her chin. She sighed dreamily," Your blood tastes just like heaven, Cheerilee..." Derpy then went to licking Cheerilee's exposed rib cage of the blood and left over muscle that clung to its surface. She licked it clean and then she began to lick at the exposed frantically beating heart of Cheerilee. She then began to nibble at it," Ohhhhhhh...ahh....OH MY BUCK! CHEERILEE YOU ARE DELECIOUS!" With that she bit down hard into Cheerilee's heart and blood flew up everywhere, landing on Derpy, landing on Cheerilee herself, landing on Dr. Whooves, landing on The Mane Six.

Cheerilee let out a feral cry and tears of blood splashed down her cheeks, blood rolled out of her ears and trickled out of mouth. The reek of blood was all that fluttered around the air, one could taste it if they breathed in.

Derpy sucked in a deep breath of the misted blood in the air," MHNNNNNNNNNN" She hummed while patting Cheerilee's head. "Now Cheerilee, my dearest you should be honored I chose you as my first pony to perform surgery on!" Said the gray pegasus, letting out a bout of cackles, with a crooked and insane smile. "You know I love the way you taste, maybe I should keep all your blood for myself!"

"S-s-s-stoopp..." Dr. Whooves let out a painful groan, forcing himself to his hoofs with what little strength that remained inside of his limbs. The blood from his wounds splattering to the floor. He looked into Derpy's eyes, his jaws clenching together. Fire of hate danced in his eyes," You aren't Derpy anymore! The Derpy I knew is just somepony that I used to know, that I used to care about that I used to love like she was my sister! You aren't anything but a psychotic little she-witch. Derpy, the real Derpy, if you are still some where inside, I'm sorry I couldn't love you like I love Cheerilee! I'm sorry if you thought I loved you as something more, now please Derpy...come back to me!" He pleaded, staggering over to Derpy placing a hoof on her cheek," Please hear me Derpy, I'm so sorry, I'm sorry I hurt you! I don't know what I can do to make you feel better, but please...please come back!"

Derpy stood rigid as the tears began to surface in her eyes, the y pilled over and to her cheeks. She placed a hoof on Dr. Whooves's hoof and a small saddened smile stretched itself upon her face. "D-D-Dr.." She let out a choked up sob. "Dr...d-d-do you know what you can do to make it up to me?" She asked of him, looking him directly in the eyes.

"I'll do anything Derpy, just name it, I promise." Dr. Whooves said softly stroking her blonde mane with a hoof.

Derpy's eyes flashed red for a moment, the angelic smile twisted into a demonic one, she pushed Dr. Whooves away from her and giggled. "Sit back and watch me kill Cheerilee! That is what you can do!"

"NO!" With adrenaline pumping through his body he jumped up grabbed the knife up in his hoofs and then stabbed Derpy in the side and then sliced side ways. Blood splattered his coat and Derpy let out a cry of dismay and fell to the cold ground.

"AUGH! YOU BASTARD!" Derpy screamed at him as she leaped up, ignoring the flow of blood and agonizing pain from her wound, and drove Dr. Whooves to the floor. She used her front hoofs and slammed them down onto Dr. Whooves's chest.

Dr. Whooves let out a gasp, the knife fell from his hoofs and he clutched his chest, wheezing as he curled up into a ball.

Derpy snatched up the knife and stepped away from Dr. Whooves, she too was panting, she was slowly turning pale, a water fall of blood was seeping out of her wound and splashing upon the floor like rain. "F-Fine..." She panted, gasping, her breath hitching," Y-Y-You want Cheerilee's heart so badly...t-t-then I'll cut it out and g-g-give it t-t-to you!" She turned and staggered over to Cheerilee, she held the knife over Cheerilee.

Cheerilee looked up at the knife looming over her and she knew that she was a goner, she closed her eyes, letting out a small whimper. She waited for the strike it never came..

SCCCCCKGHHHHHHHHH

Cheerilee's eyes fluttered open, blood hit her face, looming above her she saw Dr. Whooves's heart. The Stallion had jumped in front of the blade protecting Cheerilee and now his heart had gone out his back as the knife Derpy held stabbed through it. The blood slithered into her mouth and she gagged, throwing up all over herself, the acid poured into her innards and burned, blood was covering her and snaking inside her. The acid was eating away at her insides, it burned like a thousand suns, GREAT CELESTIA MAKE IT STOP! She began screaming as she had never screamed before, the whole dungeon echoed with her screams creating a chorus. The goriest part of this was that Dr. Whooves's heart was still attached to him.

Derpy had not expected this to happen but it had so she chorused Cheerilee's screams with wicked cackles. She slipped the knife out of Dr. Whooves's heart, pulling it into the hole of his back, through his chest cavity and back out through his chest. She looked into Dr. Whooves's eyes, seeing the endless pools of pain within. She knew he was still alive for his heart thumped feebly upon her hoofs. She shoved Dr. Whooves on to Cheerilee, Dr. Whooves's lie limply on his side, heaving, struggling to breath. Dr. Whooves was half way sunken into Cheerilee's exposed chest cavity and innards. Derpy panted and painfully sang out," I understand that you wanted this Cheerilee!" Derpy waved Dr. Whooves's heart, dangling it over her mouth. "You know. Dr. Whooves will be MINE forever after this, but I suppose you should have him to hold for a bit longer." She then shoved Dr.Whooves's heart into Cheerilee's mouth.

"MHAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA!" Cheerilee's muffled screaming came from deep within her vocal cords. Cheerilee spat Dr. Whooves's heart out and her eyes rolled into the back of her head and she started to convulse. Dr.Whooves's limply bounced upon her, Dr.Whooves stared at her, eyes wide. Cheerilee's organs began to fail, blood splashed upon the table, on the floor on Derpy...then all was still. Cheerilee nor Dr. Whooves moved no more...they were dead.

Derpy panted, heavily, feeling weak at the knees, the mare shook her head to clear the dizziness. She suddenly felt the chains of sorrow start to release her," Now..." She hummed lightly as she stumbled over to Twilight and yanked her by the mane," Heal me...or...or..." She stammered, pointing her hoof to Fluttershy. "Or I kill Fluttershy first!"

Twilight looked towards Derpy, shaking, she knew she had no choice, she used her magic to heal Derpy, getting shocked multiple times in the process, her mane frizzling up even more. Soon Derpy's wound was healed, and Twilight lie on her stomach gasping for air, she curled up into a ball and shivered.

One by one Derpy killed them, starting with Twilight. Twilight lasted only a few minutes due to her weak condition, Pinkie Pie lasted an hour, Derpy enjoyed ripping her to shreds. Derpy shivered with delight at Rarity's dramatic screams and flowing tears, Derpy enjoyed the bucking fight Apple jack put up before she too slipped away. Rainbow Dash lasted the longest, she tasted almost as good as Cheerilee did, almost...

Fluttershy...well.........That was the last time The Mane six, besides Fluttershy, saw daylight again. Now....In the Ancient Castle of The Pony sisters, they shall stay. Twilight and her friends used as paint, Derpy painted their cutie marks on the wall, their bones now each lie under their respective cutie marks. Only Fluttershy made it out with Derpy alive, perhaps Derpy took pity on Fluttershy, yes she did, so she decided to take Fluttershy under her wing and now the two were going around helping other ponies find their revenge..Fluttershy was slowly losing her mind, while she helped Derpy kill off ponies all around Equestria.......today...they were helping a certain young Apple family filly.

CH 4: Revenge Never Tasted So Sweet

"I jus' can't take it anymore, Fluttershy! First Cheerilee went missin, then Derpy, then y'all then DR. Whooves...and now only you and Derpy made it back from where ever y'all were, and now Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon are pickin' on me now more than ever along with Twist now! Twist was so sick of Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon pickin' on her even after she got her cutie mark Twist started making fun of us now too! Along with another young filly named Jade! She blamed me fer spllin mah apple juice on Miss Cheerilee's desk a few weeks ago!" Applebloom sobbed looking up at Fluttershy.

Fluttershy listened to Applebloom's tale of woe," There there, Applebloom." She soothed stroking her mane with a hoof. "Come with auntie Fluttershy I'll let you in on a little secret, call Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Babs Seed too."

With that Applebloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and Babs Seed all found their way into the old Ancient Castle of the Pony Sister's. They froze when they saw Applejack's, Rarity's, Pinkiepie's, Twilight Sparkle's and Rainbow Dash's cutie marks all painted crudely on the wall with blood, guts and gore. They also saw the skeleton of the five upon the ground. They also saw Dr. Whooves and Cheerilee plastered upon the wall, both of them lying in a position that looked like they made a heart shape.

"Weep not." Derpy's voice echoed through the room grabbing the four filly's attention.

Their gaze travelled towards her voice. They saw a desk and a chair was facing away from them.

Derpy turned the chair around and placed her hoofs upon the desk. "I hear you have someponies talking trash about you?" She asked, smiling deviously.

"What didya do ta mah big sister!" Applebloom cried out, looking to the bones of Applejack, tears filling her orbs.

"I did nothing, a monster dragged all of these ponies down here, killed them all, Fluttershy and I barely escaped its clutches." Derpy explained weaving a white lie, she knew without a shadow of a doubt that these fillies would believe her if she told them she could help them get revenge on Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Twist and Jade.

Applebloom and the three other fillies huddled together crying. "How can I---"

"Girls, please trust Derpy." Fluttershy said trotting up to them looking down at the saddened fillies. " We did everything we could to save them but it was too late....I too am filled with sorrow that they are gone, but trust me they did not go down without a fight. Now listen to Derpy.....she has something to tell you."

"Would you do anything to get revenge upon Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Twist and Jade?" Derpy asked slowly, and seriously.

Scootaloo was the first to answer," YES! I'm sick of them picking on us! After Rainbowdash went missing it only got worse and now that I know she is gone it only makes me think that she'd want me to stand up for myself and fight back!

"I agree! I know what it's like ta be bullied for bein' a blank flank!" Babs said, her voice filled with sorrow and agony.

Sweetie Belle and Applebloom agreed without a second thought, the two fillies already filled with heart break to learn that their sisters had died here and Derpy and Fluttershy had done everything they could to save them only fueled their desire to fight back, it is what their sisters would have wanted.

Derpy smiled, "Excellent...now...." The gray pegasus pulled out a bloody knife from the desk drawer and a bubble wand.....

"Where are we?"

"It's so dark in here!"

"Ugh what is that stench?!"

"I'm scawred."

"Stop being a baby Twist and---"

Suddenly green unicorn light filled the room, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Twist and Jade were all strapped to tables. They looked ahead only to see Derpy, Fluttershy, Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo and Babs Seeds slipping into the light out of some shadows before them.

"What is the meaning of this?" Diamond Tiara spat out, her eyes narrowed.

"You've been very bad ponies." Fluttershy said, walking over to them. "So hush now quiet now, it is time to lay your sleepy heads..." She trailed off and then smiled a twistedly. "Forever!"

Derpy let out a bout of cackles as she watched Applebloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and Babs walk up to their tormenters, each of them carrying a knife and a bubble wand with them.

"Hey Diamond Tiara!" Applebloom said, coldly. "Guess what?"

"What?!" Diamond Tiara spat out again, yet a hint of fear could be heard as she spotted the knife Applebloom held.

"Y'know...you coulda jus' been nice ta me then you wouldn't have been dragged down here. Shame you decided ta be a bucking witch though.." Applebloom sneered, gingerly poking Diamond Tiara's side with the tip of the knife.

"Yeah!" Scootaloo said, looking down at Jade, as she held the knife above the green haired Pegasus's head. "You know when you saved us from that dragon a while back Jade, I thought you were a cool and friendly pony, I can see how dead wrong I was!"

Jade gulped as Scootaloo placed the tip of the knife on her chest, tears ran down her eyes. "I-I-I it was the voices, I hear them! No! No! The Bloody Hooves! They told me if I wasn't nasty to you they'd kill me again! Please don't!"

"Hah, why should we stop?" Babs asked, looking down to Silver Spoon, placing the tip of the knife upon Silver Spoon's cheek. "Didja stop when you was callin' us names and blank flanks, huh?"

Silver Spoon narrowed her eyes. "Stop this! THIS ISN'T FUNNY! Fluttershy HELP PLEASE!"

"She isn't going to help you." Sweetie Belle mumbled, poking Twist in the stomach with the knife causing the filly to whimper. "You've been bad and nasty little fillies and Fluttershy says bad fillies like you don't deserve to live."

Fluttershy and Derpy bowed to the Cutie Mark Crusaders and stepped back into the depths of the shadows, to allow them to reek their revenge.

"Now it is your turn to be blank flanks!" The Cutie Mark Crusaders voices echoed throughout the dungeon. Ditzy Death's Revenge service was open.

Screams could be heard coming from Everfree, and if any pony were to look over and up above the Everfree forest, nopony could deny that they saw Crimson Bubbles floating in the sky.

Chapter 2: The capturing of the Mane six

Crimson Bubbles Part One: The capturing of the Mane six

"Whoa! Calm down Dr. Whooves! What happened?!" Twilight Sparkle said as Dr. Whooves dashed about tearing through Ponyville like a hurricane.

Dr. Whooves came to a dead stop and looked over his shoulder and said," THIS!" He shoved a letter in Twilight Sparkle's face.

"What?" Twilight Sparkle said as she used her magic to hover the letter beside her and she read it. " So what exactly is the big hullabaloo about?"

"I NEVER WROTE THIS!" Dr. Whooves's voice cracked as the panic in his mind rattled about like the tail of a venomous rattlesnake.

"But...it is signed by you?" Twilight Sparkle pointed out.

"Not in my hoof writing though!" Dr. Whooves argued.

"Are you going to tell me what the big commotion is about? Or what?" Twilight pressed, wondering what in Equestria Dr. Whooves was being so worked up about.

"CHEERILEE IS MISSING!" Dr. Whooves blurted out, stamping his front hoofs on the ground." SO IS DERPY!" He shook his head, in panic. "What if something happened to them!? Derpy didn't come into work today either! What if both of them got taken by a monster of the Everfree Forest?"

"What's going on everypony?" Derpy appeared as if from nowhere.

"DERPY!" Dr. Whooves sighed in relief, running over to her. "What happened to you?!" He asked in worry, checking over the gray Pegasus pony for any signs of injury or sickness.

"I-I-I was at Fluttershy's house!" Derpy blurted out," She had an injured bird that broke its wings in several places. She couldn't handle it on her own and you know how Fluttershy is with her...animal friends...she couldn't find you so she asked me to come and fix him up. I stayed for two days making sure the bird would be alright and not pass away- or anything, You know how heart broken- she'd be."

"I'm glad that you are okay, but we still have to find Cheerilee." Dr. Whooves said.

"What?" Derpy said, suddenly, perhaps too suddenly.

"Cheerilee's been missing for two days." Twilight said, looking at Derpy. " The last known location of Cheerilee was by the Everfree Forest."

"MISSING?!?!" Derpy screamed and jumped behind Dr. Whooves and cowered as if terrified, oh how she would thank those acting classes she took in Cloudsdale Drama School long ago. She was pulling this off perfectly, perhaps a little too perfect. This was rich, amusing, she had to force the giggles to stay dormant within her.

"We should go and set up a search party, we should split up into two pairs each and go off in search of Cheerilee." Twilight said, " Dr. Whooves I need you to the Mayor and tell her what is going on this is a APA."

"APA?" Derpy asked.

"ALL PONY ALERT!" Twilight said looking towards Derpy.

"Can I come with you?" Derpy whimpered, her wall eyes shimmering with the fake tears she shed.

"Sure Derpy! You can come with me, just be careful, and watch your flying. Your eyes might give you some trouble." Twilight beckoned the crying Pegasus towards her.

Derpy used all her will to keep herself from lunging out at Twilight and snapping her neck in two in the process. She continued with the fake tears and followed after the purple unicorn. As soon as she and Twilight were out of sight from Ponyville and Twilight's back was turned, Derpy....smiled.
.........................
........................
Meanwhile
..........................
..........................
I don't know where I am, but I'm screaming with everything I've got. Why won't anypony hear me? Why won't somepony save me? Where in the wide world of Equestria am I any way? Well one thing is for sure, I know how I ended up here. It was all because of HER, that wall eyed pony. That...that Derpy Hooves. Why had Derpy ponynapped me? Me of all ponies? Why is she doing this to me? She seemed so nice and sweet, innocent even. What did I ever do to her to make her so upset at me that she would drag me down into this dark and dank place? These were the thoughts of our fair and frightened, poor little Miss Cheerilee, as she lie on the ice cold floor, her heart pounding. She could do nothing now. She had stopped screaming. Her vocal cords burning with overuse, all she could do was lie in stark horror as she waited for Derpy to return with the special guests she had mentioned. Cheerilee desperately let her gaze sweep across the seemingly void of the dungeon, trying to spot an exit, alas it was too dark. It was hopeless. Her muffled sobs bounced and echoed through the dungeon she was held captive in.
..................
..................

"This is where Cheerilee vanished." Twilight said looking down at the ground, seeing where a struggle had played out.

"I want to go home." Derpy whined, pressing herself up close to Twilight Sparkle's side.

"Oh Derpy, stop being such a fraidy pony..." Twilight said, however she gained no answer from Derpy.

"Derpy?" She said. She looked around and noticed the wall eyed Pegasus pony was no longer there. "Derpy?" She looked around, her gaze flickering this way and that as she tried to relocate Derpy. "Derpy? Are you there? Come on, it is okay, nothing is going to get us I promise---"

Twilight Sparkle would eat those words and regret them for the short time she had left in this world.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pinkie Pie trotted along inside the flower shop, seeking out Cheerilee. "Hey!" She said to the manager," Has Cheerilee been here recently?"

"Yeah, on Hearts and Hooves Day she stopped by, picking up flowers for her special somepony." The manager said, handing off some flowers to a regular costumer. The regular costumer left the shop, leaving only Pinkie Pie and the manager alone.

"Have you seen her since then?"

"No...oh flower pots, I forgot I have to do something really quick. Hold on, I'll be right back!" The manager slipped away and into the back room.

"Okey dokey lokey!" Pinkie Pie said. Suddenly the sound of a shattering flower pot reached her ears. "Huh?" She turned around to see an open closet door. It was wide open, blackness inside. A broken flower pot lie next to it. "Ohhh...my detective senses are tingling! I should investigate!" Without a second thought, she bounced into the closet, being her Pinkie Pie self when, the door behind her slammed shut, with the sound of thunder rumbling across the shop. Pinkie's scream echoed only for a second before----
WHAM!

"ACK!"

Thump.

............
............

Applejack and Rarity ended up being together, for they bumped into each other a while ago. "Okay," Rarity sighed. "So we know that Cheerilee isn't by the Everfree Forest anymore. So where else is there to look?"

Applejack was thinking and observing. Then her face lit up. "Oh! I've got it!"

Rarity looked at her in confusion. "What?"

AJ turned to her then. "Let's look for her in Sweet Apple Acres. I done don't mean to sound creepy an' all, but I thank that it would be a darn great place for somepony to get ponynapped. I mayn, all of the trees. Think 'bout it. Once, Apple Bloom once got lost in there."

Rarity thought this over. Then she made up her mind. "Okay, let's begin our search there together." The two slapped high hoofs and continued on their way, proceeding to Sweet Apple Acres.

As the two made their way in, there was a rustling in the trees. "Hey, yah hear that?"
Rarity nodded.

Then AJ said, "Ya know what? It's probably justa bird. Maybe the one that we heard that Derpy and Fluttershy were taking care of."

"But Applejack, Fluttershy said that she never was with Derpy-- Ah!" Suddenly, Rarity was gone.

"Rarity!" AJ panicked. She turned and looked to see that Rarity was knocked unconscious and was being dragged behind one of the apple trees. She sped up to the Rarity's caper and was about to lunge for them when Applejack was hit in the ribs. "Oof!" was all that she could get out. The punch knocked the wind out of her. Then, she felt something prick her shoulder. "Uhn... R-r-arti-ty..." That's when the colors of the world began to bleed and mash together and then faded to black.

.............................
.............................

"Come on, Fluttershy!" Rainbow Dash said, urging the terrified yellow Pegasus onward. "It's only the Ponyville School House! Nothing scary about it!" Rainbow Dash said, pushing Fluttershy with her front hoofs.

"B-B-But!" Fluttershy squeaked as she shivered, as the moon loomed down on them as if looking at them like one great huge eye in the sky. "It's dark in there!" She held her hoofs out and they caught on the frame of the school door.

"Fluttershy!" Rainbow Dash growled out of her clenched teeth. With one last push the both of them went stumbling into the school house.

Fluttershy jumped up as Rainbow Dash landed on her tail. With a squeak of pure horror, she jumped up and blindly flew through the School House and hit a wall opposite from the door. She slumped down onto the floor and crawled underneath the teacher's desk.

Rainbow Dash struggled to her hoofs and shook herself, to rid herself of the dizzy feeling she had gained when falling. "Fluttershy?" She called out, not seeing where her pal had gotten too. She walked trough the wooden school, then suddenly the door smashed closed and the force sent a gusting wind through the school. Rainbow Dash heard the squeal of Fluttershy, this drowning out the sound of flapping wings coming towards her. Suddenly she was pushed into a dark corner and then she screamed. "NO PINKIE NO MORE CUPCAKES!"

SHIINNGGGKKK

The cowering Fluttershy gave out a cry that sounded like a wounded animal. She gulped in a warm breath of air, wait warm? Suddenly the scent of blood filled her nostrils. "Rainbow Dash?" She shivered as she lie on her stomach, slightly curled up. She did not dare to peek out from her refuge under the teacher's desk. For she was too fearful of what she might find. Suddenly the air chilled, Fluttershy felt somepony grab her ankles like a vice and yank her out from her hidey desk. Fluttershy gave out a blood piercing scream, yet it was silenced with the sound of a whizzing bat through the air. Nopony was around to hear it.

............
...........

Cheerilee woke to a horrid sight. She saw Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy all leashed up in chains against the wall, with shock collars hanging from their necks. Each shock collar had a pendant in the shape of each of their cutie marks.

"I'm baaack!!!"

Cheerilee's heart almost jumped out of her chest. She was swooped up and smacked down on to a table, roughly. Cheerilee groaned irritably in response.

"Now...what to do with you? Mhn...." Derpy paced back and forth.

Cheerilee began shaking her head, and trying to speak but all that came out were a couple of muffled," MHHNNNS!"

"Oh..I know, don't worry...It will all be okay..." Derpy said, patting Cheerilee's stomach with a hoof, Cheerilee giving an uncomfortable moan, in response. Suddenly, Derpy hit a brilliant idea. One idea that would beat all murderous ideas that anypony that ever murdered ever had. Derpy walked over to a strange device and pressed a button. Several shocking noises were heard, as they came from the collars around the mane six.

"AHHH!" Twilight Sparkle and her friends wailed as they were jolted from their agonizing slumber. Twilight Sparkle panted as the shocking subsided, her mane frizzled and her coat dirty. She glanced around her, while her eyes where trying to adjust to the dim light. Suddenly, like a crash of thunder, she saw her friends in the same situation as she was. "What is going on?" Twilight mumbled.

"MHHNNN! MHHHMMm-MHHNN!"

"Huh?" Twilight rounded as she looked toward the noise. She saw Cheerilee taped up, struggling. "CHEERILEE!" Twilight ran towards her. Suddenly she was thrown back, landing flat on her flank. That was when she noticed the chains on her neck and the shock collar strapped around her. "Cheerilee, what is going on?" Twilight attempted to use her unicorn magic, to slip the tape off of Cheerilee's mouth, when she got a nasty surprise in the form of a rattling shock, galloping through her throat. She cried out and collapsed onto the floor, panting.

Cheerilee let out a muffled shriek and struggled against the tape that held her bind together.

"SHUT THE BUCK UP!"

Twilight Sparkle's eyes snapped open and she noticed some other pony standing next to Cheerilee. She had not noticed that pony there before. "DERPY?!"

"Oops, silly WALL EYED me! I've been caught! Red hoofed!" Derpy giggled in a frightening manner. "I wanted you all awake for this and don't dare to attempt flying or using magic to escape the automatic security I installed in the shock systems, for they will send powerful volt waves shuddering through you." She raised a hoof and flipped some bangs from Cheerilee's face. "No wonder Dr. Whooves loves you, you are so beautiful." Derpy stroked Cheerilee's mane, as if she were running a brush through it.

"Let her go, yeh no good buckin' pony!" Applejack said, trying to rush towards them but was thrown back like Twilight had been.

"What the hay? Derpy? What in the name of Equestria is going on? I thought you were nice?" Rainbow Dash gasped, as she struggled into a sit. Blood dribbling from her forehead down to her cheeks. She was way too worn out to attempt standing up, let alone trying to rescue Cheerilee from this mad pony before them.

"I've heard of some pretty dark jokes in my day, yet I know enough to know that this isn't a joke! We are in serious trouble!" Pinkie Pie's voice was strained and broken up, as if talking hurt.

"You all will pay." Derpy said her voice eerily quiet, merely above a whisper.

"Derpy, darling?" Rarity whispered in slight fear, not believing what she was seeing. "What ever is this all about?"

"Revenge." Derpy put it bluntly while giving Rarity a burning stare. She turned away, back to Cheerilee, ignoring the mane six's protest and the blubbering coming from Fluttershy. " I'm going to turn you into bubbles, my lovely." Derpy cooed and giggle psychotically, whilst she smiled eerily. She noticed that the tape that held Cheerilee was worn and tearing. "Mhnn.... Time to go get the nails.." She mumbled, trotting off and vanishing into the shadows.

"MHNNN!" Cheerilee began to trash upon the table, tears splashing around her. Suddenly she heard the tape ripping and she was free, she worked the tape off of her muzzle. She rolled off of the table landing, with a thud, on the hard floor upon her stomach. She jumped up, ignoring the dirt and other debris that clung to her. She rushed over to the mane six. "We've got to get out of here!" Her voice was drained and duller than a butter knife. She attempted to tug at Twilight Sparkle's shock collar, trying to rid the purple unicorn of the sinister device, only to have her plans thwarted with Derpy's return. Derpy let the nails and the hammer in her mouth drop, she lunged at Cheerilee with a feral howl.

"You aren't going any where!" Derpy pinned Cheerilee on to the stone floor and brought a hoof sailing down to Cheeliee's stomach, knocking the wind out of reddish purple Earth pony.

Cheerilee let out a wail of agony and spat up some blood, she struggled underneath Derpy's hold, yet she was too wakened to put up much of a fight.

Derpy easily smashed Cheerilee back onto the table and began with her sinister work. "Hold still now, Cheerilee, I'm a trained doctor! Trust me when I tell you that this will only hurt...a lot." With that Derpy hovered a nail over Cheerilee's right arm, she raised the hammer high into the air.

SLAM! SLAM! SLAM!

Cheerilee's blood splattered upon Derpy's face leaving it dotted with crimson droplets.
The mane six watched on, all of the pale as a ghost. Except for Rarity of course, she was the color white so it wasn't certain if she was much more pale. The six of them were close enough to huddle together and so they did as Derpy began to torture Cheerilee, they watched on. Their eyes glued to the uncouth scene, unable to pry away for they were frozen as if they were blocks of ice.

Cheerilee screeched and her body convulsed! She wailed as she felt Derpy hammer the gigantic nail into her right arm. She continued to wail as Derpy hammered another nail into her left arm.

Derpy hammered and hammered until there were three nails each, wedged inside Cheerilee's arms and legs. She relished at Cheerilee's screams and mocked her by screaming and fake crying. "Ohhh! No stop Derpy please, please stop!" Derpy mocked. "Well did you stop when you stole Dr. Whooves away from me? I don't think so!" She hammered again, this time with more force, just to make sure each nail would hold Cheerilee steady. Derpy slipped away only to come back with a jar she placed the jar besides the edge of the table, where a thin trail of Cheerilee's blood was slipping off of. The blood trickled into the jar, Derpy waited staring at it with an insane smile, watching the blood splash at the bottom. Watching with glee she whispered to Cheerilee," Innocence is a form of insanity." Said she, as she gained all the blood she needed. She placed the jar down on the stone ground, she then danced and pranced around Cheerilee, singing. "Innocence is a form of insanity, it eats your mind it eats your heart!" Derpy danced all around, careful as not to spill the jar of blood that was under the table. "This madness has only just begun to start!" She came to a halt and started humming to herself as she trotted off into the darkness. She returned with a knife in hoof, giggling as she approached Cheerilee.

"No! No! Don't stop! Please I beg of you! I'll do anything you want please don't hurt me anymore!" Cheerilee's voice was cracked and broken into sobs.

"It's far too late for that Miss Cheerilee!" Derpy hummed as she hovered the knife inches away from Cheerilee's eyes. She waved the knife back and forth, only inches from slicing Cheerilee's eyes out from their sockets. "Capturing you fools was as easy as Pinkie Pie!" The laughter of pure insanity slipped past Derpy's lips.

Pinkie Pie's eyes grew wide and she buried her face into Rainbow Dash's mane, with a whimper.

"Did I scare the poor little pony?" Derpy's voice drifted like ice across the dungeon, it echoed with malice. Derpy slid away from Cheerilee and over to Pinkie Pie and let out a dreamy sigh. "Oh, it is such a shame that I have to strip you of your lives." Derpy shook her head, making a 'task task, task' noise from her voice. The gray Pegasus pranced off and over to a table that held some wash clothes, she picked some up and rubbed her face with them. Ridding herself of Cheerilee's dotted blood. She then went back to Cheerilee and placed the knife upon her belly, smiling Derpy hummed a sweet tone to Cheerilee as if this were nothing but another day at work at the Hospital. She grazed the knife over Cheerilee making shallow cuts, she heard Cheerilee make a whimper noise that sounded a lot like sad giggles, Derpy finished with the shallow cutting, engraved within Cheerilee's skin was a incision in the shape of a heart. It started from Cheerilee's lower abdomen and stopped at her chest. "Aw, does that tickle? Well how about this?!" She asked plunging the knife a little deeper and engraving the words; ' Cheerilee and Dr. Whooves together forever.' Inside of the heart shape, she then dove the knife a little deeper and marked an 'x' through the words and the heart. She giggled at Cheerilee's screams of fright. "Well my little lovelies, I have a score to settle, I'll be back...soon." Derpy slipped off without a word, dropping the knife on the floor and scooping up the jar of Cheerilee's blood, leaving the mane six and Cheerilee to the suffocating fear of knowing they'd not make it out of there alive.
