A story that came out of boredom and not being satisfied with the ending of "cupcakes".

This story was a result of a really boring sunday afternoon the 17th february 2013 and as listening to the creepy/ponypasta called "cupcakes" and me personally being totally unsatisfied by the ending of it.
It's a work in progress and i'm not a mastermind in the english language since i only learned it in school.
Iam aware that my grammar isn't the best and some words can be mispelled but i'm not in the need to getting it rubbed under my nose by grammar nazis. If you don't like don't read it but i'm always happy about a positive or constructive critique and not something like this: "lulz, he's a retard" i think no one appreciates such comments.
Now have fun or leave this flick and move on with your life.
I wish everyone a nice day

Limbo Part 1 (Is rainbow dash really gone?)

Limbo

The pink pony, with the name of Pinkie Pie is rubbing her belly while the taste of the last cupcakes she made wen't down her throat  and disappears in her stomach. As she get's up from the table, she licks her lips an says: "Those were the best cupcake i had in months. Too bad there are no more Pegasus Ponies like Rainbow Dash around, so athletic yet so weak behind the facade of being cool and tough. Well, back cleaning up all this mess, before Mr. and Mrs. Cake return from their delivery."

Pinkie start's cleaning up really fast and cleans out every single spot were blood could splatte, she looks over the table she worked on dash and strapped her down. The remains of her good friend with an open stomach and cut-off wings. Suddenly a brillliant idea hit's her out of nowhere: "It would be a shame to throw her away... I know il just stuff her with cotton and she will be around me forever!"

After stuffing her and attaching back the cut-off wings by stitching them to the body, Dash stands there life-like in front of pinkie and staring at her, pinkie starts bouncing around her, full of joy and being surprised that Dash turned out so life-like. Suddenly a voice rangs from upstairs: "Pinkie, were back from the catering-Job!" pinkie quickly throw's the stuffed Rainbow Dash in a chest and locks it, then she bounces upstairs to greet Mr. and Mrs Cake from the succesful business and being away for 2 day's. "I hope everything wen't smooth and without any problems, Pinkie?" Mr. Cake asks in a calm voice, immediatly pinkie responds: "Everything wen't fine and i even had time to clean up the bakery and storage room."

"Oh, that's  so kind of you pinkie. I knew we could count on you and we got great news. We will organize the Desert Buffet for the Grand-Galloping Gala and we won't be around in Ponyville for 2 weeks, so we count on you pinkie to supply ponyville with our baked goods, while we will be gone for that time." Mr. Cake said. "And if you are in trouble pinkie just ask spike to send a letter to celestia, the guards will bring it over to us." Mrs. Cake said with a bit troubled look. "Is it me or is it getting colder in here, it's in the middle of the Summer and the temperature seems to be fine."

After loading up the carriage with supplies and taking off to Canterlot, pinkie was waving like the happiest pony of equestria and went back inside, after she closed the door and walking to the kitchen, she suddenly hears pounding from the basement and someone calling her name, the voice sounds like the ones from Rainbow Dash but that's impossible pinkie thought and opened the door to the basement, now the pounding is even louder and after walking down the stairs her eyes get affixiated on the chest she stuffed Rainbow Dash in. Pinkie slowly walks forward to the chest on the other end of the room and suddenly the punding stops, she opens the chest and there is just the stuffed figure of the pony, same as she stuffed it in there hours ago. Suddenly something pushes her with a powerful kick in the back and she fall's into the chest and the cover was slammed down and the lock makes click. Pinkie remains calm and asks: "Whoever did this, please let me out of here. Please? Pretty please?"

Nothing happens, suddenly pinkie notices someone breathing but it's not her, she's confused and asks: "Anypony in here, expect me?"

It takes a long time but a deep voice responses "Take a wild guess."

Her mind is deciffering and pitching the voice up a bit after she comes to the conclusion: "It sounds like Rainbow Dash but that's impossible, i killed her. Oh pinkie, your imagination is again on it's brightest side." The low pitched voice speaks again for once: "This time pinkie, it's not your mind or your imagination." The voice is getting higher and higher "This time it's reality and i will show you what damage you caused to the other's you killed and turned into cupcakes." After the sentence is finished the voice was the same as from Rainbow Dash and a red glow came from the stuffed pony out of the eyes staring in pinkies eyes. When pinkie turns her head around and sees the glow from the eyes in a split second, her mind shuts down and she blacks out. Pinkie wakes up gasping for air and sweating bullets in her bedroom and sighs: "Just a bad dream. It was just a bad dream, rainbow dash is dead, i ate her inner organs, she's gone."

"Are you sure?" a muffled voice comes from the blanket covering her bed. Pinkie jumps out of her bed desperatly tries to turn on the light by searching the the entire wall beside the door, finally here the switch. She thought in relief. And switches it on, in the same second she turns around and sees the shape of a pony under her blanket, she walks slowly towards her bed and stop's in front of it, staring at the pony shape."Do you dare to take the blanket? Am i too scary for you, Pinkie Pie? C'mon Pinkie pie, remember all the fun we had together, pranking other and hanging around." Pinkie start's to shutter after the voice of Rainbow Dash comes muffled from the blanket. She bites down the blanket and pull's it away with her entire strength and quickly turns around to see, nothing, there's nothing at all just the matress and pillow and no impression in them under the weight of a pony, no evidence at all. "I think, i need to calm down a bit and just relax." Pinkie walks to the bathroom and takes a glass of water and washing her face and looks up in the mirror, Rainbow Dash is standing right behind her, she rubs her eyes and the reflection is gone. Pinkie looking now a bit unnerved walks back to her bedroom and locks the door and put the key under her pillow and wen't to sleep. The rest of the night was peaceful and without any unexpected events that happend before.

To be contiuned...

Limbo part 2 (Halluzinations or is it reality)

The alarm clock rang and pinkie rolled around in her bed to face the alarm clock, her eyes where still closed since the sunlight was too bright and her eyes weren't adjusted to it yet. She started thumbling with her hoof around to find the alarm clock and turn it off, finally she found it and pressed the button to turn off the annyoing buzzing sound it made and by doing that she fell out of her bed and picked herself up slowly and thought: "No sign of Rainbow Dash, i guess i had a really bad dream last night but it felt so real. Well, everyone say's i got a pretty lifelike imagination." So she went on with the new day that had started and made it quickly to the bathroom to fix up her mane, brushing her teeth and taking a shower. While brushing her teeth, a rustling came from the shower curtain and pinkie immediatly stopped brushing and slowly turned her head in the direction of the bathtub with the curtain, it rustled again. She slowly started walking towards it, while staring for any evidences of magical aura from an unicorn or a shadow that was casted through the curtain, as she stood in front of it, she grabbed the curtain and flung it open. Again, nothing and she couldn't explain why it rustled but then said to herself in her mind: "Maybe i left a window open yesterday and a wind blow came from outside." she went back to the sink to spit out the remaining toothpaste and to wash out her mouth with water. She stepped away from the sink and made her way to the bathtub to take a shower, since she was a bit behind her daily schedual, pinkie didn't had the time to take a bath and decided to take a quick shower. As she stepped inside the it felt diffrent, like the tub was kept in a freezer but she shrugged it off and turned first the valve for the cold water slowly and starting to turn the valve for the hot water but nothing came, neither hot or cold water the shower head just wobbled for a second and made a clinching sound. Since pinkie was a curious pony, she placed her ear, next to the shower head and heard somepony or something breathing in it with an echo. Pinkie backed away immediatly and now stared with one eye into the shower head and said: "He... Hello?" the breathing had stopped but pinkie made out something in the dark, a very dim glow of pink and a pair of eyes opening quickly and the glow was so bright it blinded pinkie for a second adn she backed away, the pipe made another clinching sound and woobled once again, pinkie slipped and fell into the tub and the shower head let a enourmous stream of blood out, that filled the tub in seconds, pinkie was panicking and tried to grab an edge of the tub to hoist her out of the blood-filled tub but slipped and was in the blood again and gasped for air and swallowed some blood while gagging under the liquid. Out of nowhere a blue hoof appeard and pulled her up and out of the blood, as pinkie said upright in the tub, she slowly opened her eyes to see rainbow dash sitting in the opposite of her. "I thought you like bloodbath's, pinkie?" Rainbow Dash asked in a bit teasing voice, pinkie was thrembling backwards and fell out of the tub and stuttered "I killed you, you can't be real, you are a production of my mind." "If you say so pinkie." Dash replied and pinkie shut's her eyes and covers her ears with her hoof's and just sat there, blood smeared all over the bathroom the tub full of blood. After a few minutes pinkie slowly takes off her hoofes from her covered ears and opens her eyes. The bathroom looks like nothing happend at all, it was in the state as she entered it in the morning. "I think i should visit Zecora for an relaxing ointment to calm my nerves and taking the stress of me." pinkie thought and checked her mane and if everything was alright, before she wen't downstairs to work, pinkie checked once again behind the shower curtain and checked the shower head but there was nothing. As bouncing down the stairs, she already had put up her unforgettanable smile and wen't into the kitchen to bake the supplies, to provide ponyville with the baked goods. The day went by in no time, costumers came purchased and left the store with a smile on their faces, at the end of the day Applejack entered the shop and asked a bit concerned: "Hi pinkie pie. Have ya seen RD around lately? She promised me to hang out today and to help me to do some chores around the farm." Pinkie quickly replied: "Sorry applejack, i haven't seen her in days. Maybe scootaloo knows something?" Suddenly pinkies eyes locked on a quickly appearing shape of a pegasus behind applejack, pinkies look slowly changed from smiling to a terrifying one. "Everything alright, sugarcube? You look like you've seen a ghost or something." Rainbow Dash raised her left hoof and wiped applejacks hat off her head into the direction of pinkie and it landed in her face. "Wow, you seem to have more than one open window in your house but i can't remember that any wind was out there before i came in here." applejack chuckled and pinkie took, applejacks hat off her face and gave it back to her . "He he, yeah that could be possible. Oh look at the time i have to get to Zecora to get something to relax myself, i was a bit stressed out since i have to take care of the store and running it on my own." pinkie said with a really happy voice, she was just happy to have someone around her and not being alone with her fantasies or ghost or whatever rainbow dash is now. "Maybe, i could help you out from time to time, just come by and ask me." "That sounds great applejack." but then pinky frowned "No, it's ok applejack, i have to learn to take up on my responsibilites on my own or i won't ever be able to open a bakery by myself." "Alright then, just if it would be too much, just tell me and il help ya out." applejack said and wen't out the main doors. After Applejack left, pinkie turned the Open sign to closed and mopped the floor and cleaned the counter. "Finally done and no sign of this halluzination." pinkie thought and wen't upstairs to get her saddleback and prepare for the hike to Zecora into the everfree forest.

Limbo part 3 (Is reality now the insanity?)

As reaching the city limits of ponyville and the border to the everfree forest, pinkie took her time and was looking around her and the envoirement for some time, to be sure that rainbow dash isn't around she checked every space in her sight of view and the 360 degrees around her. Rainbow Dash wasn't around but how can pinkie aware of something she can't see, when rainbow dash can control wheter be seen by someone or not. She was following pinkie the entire time, atleast she got her wings back in the limbo and just fly over her without causing to getting noticed.

Pinkie slowly starts walking into the dark and scary forest with the unseen rainbow dash above her. As the forest contiuned to get darker and a lot of unsettling shadows to appear, pinkie started humming her song giggle at the ghosties. Those were happier times, before all the killing and cannibalism started. Pinkie realised at this very moment what she had done to her victims and she got flooded with memories, all the funerals and crying realtives of her victims. The first time in months she felt depressed and regretted everything she had done in this time. Rainbow dash was lying on a branch and watching pinkie pie crying, even she had done nothing, pinkie regret everything. Rainbow dash just smirked and thought: "I think i warmed her up and finally she's getting fragile, let's see how long she can take it." Then suddenly like a bolt hit her, pinkie stopped crying and was all happy and smiling bouncing towards zecoras house, like a switch in her mind was flipped and now it's the normal murdering pinkie pie as before, all happy and smiling and killing... Rainbow dash was indeed a bit disturbed by watching the transformation of pinkies mind. Rainbow dash contiuned to follow pinkie and the finally after a few wrong turns, they both reached zecoras house and pinkie knocked on the door, there was a brief moment of silence but was broke by zecora saying "Come in, come in, i'm just working on something." Pinkie opened the door slowly and there was an intense green glow from the cauldron coming from the center of the room and zecora talking in her language some weird rhyme and green fog errupted out the cauldron, blasting pinkie out the doorway and rainbow dash laughing on her top of the lungs, while landing on her back outside, as the fog layed down zecora stand in front of her staring down on her and speak's "Good evening, pinkie pie. What is your desire to visit me on such a late time?" Zecora helped pinkie up and pinkie was a bit unnerfed looking around and talking in a very silent tone "Zecora, i need some ointment to relax and calm myself, i have been haunted by weird halluzinations that must've came with the stress and all the chores i have to do, while Mr. and Mrs. Cake are gone." Zecora put up her hoof under her chin and said "Hmm, i got a great relaxing bubblebath that i just made yesterday." Pinkies look and facial expression turned into a terrified look and yelled " NO, no baths" pinkie calmed herself down immediatly and zecora stopped covering her ears from the yelling from pinkie as she started from the beggining "No, no bubblebaths. Do you have something like an ointment that i could buy?" and her head swifted a bit to the left and saw rainbow dash juggling with potions and other random stuff "Everything alright, pinkie pie?" zecora asked and turned her head around to see what's going on behind her and in that moment pinkie closed her eyes for a second and openend them again and everything was in perfect order, now pinkie knew she isn't save anywhere until zecora got something that blocks or scares ghosts away but pinkie was still not sure if it is just her feeling regret is projecting those halluzinations or rainbow dash is really a ghost of some kind. "Did you came alone, pinkie pie?" Zecora asked, while giving pinkie a worried look "because i have this weird feeling we aren't alone and somepony or something is watching us"

"Oh no, what if anypony finds out about my secret. I will be banned and locked away for my entire life and will never taste those great cupcakes again." so many thought's were shooting through her mind but pinkie stayed calm and asked zecora "Zecora, could you bring me the ointment you promised me?"

"Oh, i'm sorry got a bit carried away. Il get it in a sec." she wen't inside and brought out the ointment and pinkie payed her and went back home with the hope to find some rest and gain some distance from this neverending nightmare to the normal reality.

While zecora was working on her brew, he was flying over all these weird feelings she had when pinkie was here, she never felt, such an intense and penetrating stare from someone. Something must be terribly wrong and that was making her a bit paranoid but brushed it off, since it was gone and everything was back to normal.

WHile pinkie was walking out the everfree forest it was almost midnight and the full moon shined down clearly and the sky was cloud free as reaching the city limit of ponyville, pinkie suddenly saw that only black clouds were hanging over Sugarcube corner and it was raining blood, as it was already really late, nopony was up to see this subnormal sight of black clouds raining blood. "No, no, no, no, no! This can't be happening, maybe im just hallucinating the blood and it's water in realitiy." as she stepped on the road on the opposite of sugarcube corner she held her tongue out and tried to catch this water or blood rain. It was blood, pinkie was shocked that she tasted the blood of Rainbow Dash again, while cutting her up and licking the splattered blood from her lips it had the same taste. She ran inside threw her saddlebag on the floor and wanted to run upstairs to her room but in the moment as she reached the first step of the stairs she looked up and then struck by a lightning, visible for a second the stuffed rainbow dash was standing on the top of the staircase. The terrifying lifeless eyes started to move and focusing on her and a menacingly wide grin peeled itself into the face of the stuffed dash and it stopped growing when it reached eachside of the skull, pinkie in terror looked away and blinked, in the same moment the stuffed pony appeared besides her and pinkie swung her head on the other side and needed to blink. Everything wen't black even though her eyes were open everything was pitch black and in the next second a bright light occured from a ceiling and pinkie recognized the ceiling as the same ceiling rainbow dash saw when she got killed and she was strapped down to the operation table. "This is not true, this isn't real!" pinkie screamed and shut her eyes shut while struggling to get away. "Goodie, you're awake. Now we can get started." in this very moment pinkie realised that those were the words she spoke before working on rainbow dash and she opened her eyes, beside her was a cart covered with a cloth and a pink pony turned around and it was herself as she turned her head she saw that her fur is now blue and looking up, her mane was the same as from rainbow dash. Her view started to blurry and wen't back to black as it brithened up pinkie found herself in a hot oven, screaming with all pain the oven causes her while burning her and everything wen't black again and as she woke up, a weird feeling overcame her "Why can't i feel my body? My hoofes, why can't i move them and where am i?" pinkie said to herself. A mirror rose up from the edge and pinkie saw her head in a jar unable to move and impossible to be still alive.

"Now we will be forever together!" rainbow dash said appearing out of thin air. Pinkie couldn't stan to look at rainbow dash since her eye's were scratched out and leaving empty black holes and all her teeth were smashed by some dull object, as the mouth moved all teeth were falling out and her eye socket's were starting to drop and blood trickling down her cheecks. Her mane was harshly torn off her head. Pinkie couldn't take the view of this tortured pony anymore and shut her eyes and was menancingly telling to herself: "This is not real! This is not real! This is not real!" At the third time saying this pinkie felt a bit wet and slammed her eyelids open realizing that she is in her bedroom laying in her bed, that was soaked by her sweat, as for the rest of the night pinkie layed like a frozen statue in her bed watching the ceiling and seeing herself doing all the cruel cutting up and harvesting of her past unti the sun rose.
