Into The Dark

Previous Chapter

Twilight and her four friends walked slowly into the dark, somehow cold palace of Celestia. They found it surprisingly quiet. No guards, no music playing, no nothing.

"Gee, I wonder where everyone could be?" said Twilight, with a fake grin on her face.

No one replied to her. They all came because of Rainbow Dash's plea that Princess Celestia ordered them to come to canterlot at once. But since she wasn't clear on where they should meet, so the five of them decided to go to the main throne room; where they usually met.

Robert's POV


Robert walked aimlessly in this unfamiliar castle. He was sure he was lost until he heard...hoof steps? He listened closer.....Yes, he was sure of it this time. He decided to get closer to the noise to find the source of it. After all, it's not like he had any other choice...

Twilight and her friend's POV


"Girls, do you have the feeling that we're being...watched?" spoke Twilight as she moved her head from left to right, and then left again.

"N-no, I don't think so." spoke Fluttershy.

Then all of a sudden, they heard a monstrous, low-pitched wail from behind them.

Robert's POV


'Well that certainly didn't come out right' thought Robert as his "words" came out as a low-pitched wail, and he then realized who was in front of him.

'It's...Just like the cartoon! Those things are talking ponies! Maybe I should go hug them to see what would happen..' He thought as he gleefully "jogged" over to them.

Twilight and her Friend's POV


Twilight was still shaking, as were her friends as they suddenly heard fast paced footsteps behind them as they whirred around to see that a creature straight out of a horror movie was coming right at them!

"Ruuuun!" screamed a stupid spoiled who-, I mean, Rarity.

They all bolted out of the castle as the giant whatever thing was still chasing after them. He even fired out a weird tentacle out of it's mouth to catch them. But however, right after it did that, it stopped chasing them.

~~~

The five horses kept running even when they were back in Ponyville.

"What was that thing?" said Fluttershy, still running along with her friends.

"I don't know, *Puff* but it definitely wasn't human." answered Twilight.

Robert's POV


'How did I do that?' Parker thought to himself. Among many other thoughts.

He looked around himself, and realized he wasn't in the castle anymore. He, however, was just outside Ponyville. He decided to head towards that direction. But suddenly he heard a powerful roar above him, and suddenly, the pink beast dropped out of the sky in front of him and he came face to face with the ugliest abominations on the planet...Pinkie Pie.

'Alright...LET'S GET IT ON!' thought Robert, as he charged forward at the thingy with a dingy, his claws raised, he wasn't about to let this cartoon let anymore people get annoyed by her. He jumped in the air and landed on it's face. He then began taking swipes at it's unattractive face and then finished by (somehow) farting in it's face.

The pink creature fainted from sucking in the first place and because on how awesome Robert really was. As it began to fall on it's back, Robert did a backflip and landed on his feet as the pink ugly fell to the ground, defeated.

'That'll teach you to mess with me...trick.' he thought confidently as he began once again towards the poorly financed town of Ponyville.

Ponyville, the mane six's POV...Or should I say, Mane Five's POV


"*Puff Puff* What..was...THAT?!" bellowed Twilight as she and her friends arrived back at her library house thingy and finally got a chance to catch their breaths.

"I...don't know." responded Rainbow Dash.

"Maybe it was a poor beast trying to find it's way home?" said Fluttershy, a small smile starting to spread on her face.

"Shut the buck up fluttershy, that THING wanted to kill us!" yelled Rarity, right in the face of the weak and helpless Fluttershy.

Fluttershy instantly burst into tears at the sight of Rarity's rambling, and surprisingly, Rarity made no move into apologizing to Fluttershy. She then literally picked up Fluttershy and threw her out of the window.

"Urgh, that's better, I didn't need to hear anymore of that little baby's crying." grumbled a now frustrated Rarity.

"Rarity?! What has gotten into you?" spoke a flabbergasted Twilight Sparkle.

"Oh nothing...It's just that thing is probably still out there running around, possibly killing more innocent lives, and now that we got away from it, it's possibly coming after us and possibly going to hunt us down and kill us off one by one. That's all."

Well Twilight wasn't going to let this little drama queen just throw out her friend and talk like that to all them.

"Well listen up you stupid spoiled whore! You can't just throw out fluttershy like that! I'm gonna kick your-"

Suddenly a familiar voice rang out in the night.

"OH CELESTIA! HELP ME! IT'S GETTING CLOSER, AND IT WANTS ME! HELP! OH NO, NO, N-"

It was the voice of Fluttershy and it sounded like she needed help. Not wanting to waste time, the remaining four ponies put their differences aside and rushed out to met whatever was attacking Fluttershy...Or what's left of her.

Weakly, with the last breath she had, Fluttershy said this final phrase: "Girls.....run"

Right out in front of them, it was the monster from the castle, and it had came for them...
