Revenge of the Slendermane

"Are you sure about this?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Yes I'm sure." Scootaloo said.

"Really? Getting our cutie marks.... for tree climbing? In the Everfree Forest?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Yes." The orange filly said.

"But remember last time?" The white filly asked.

"We won't go so far into the Everfree just three or four feet in." Scootaloo reassured.

"Well if you say so." The yellow filly said.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders then traveled into the Everfree Forest and looked out for any monsters or dangerous creatures that might attack. They then found a nice tree.... that didn't look anything like the other trees. It was very old and it didn't have any leaves.

"Let's climb this one. I'll go first." Scootaloo said.

She then jumped onto the bark and tried climbing up it but suddenly the tree started glowing a dark aura and Scoot was forced off and into her friends. The tree then started changing and it morphed into a tall white, faceless pony in a dark suit with a red tie and a circle with an through it for a cutie mark.

"Lily Slender?" Sweetie asked.

"No. Slender Mane." The tall pony said.

"What do y'all want with us?" Apple Bloom asked.

"You're going to help me destroy the Elements of Harmony and the Princesses." Slender Mane said menacingly.

"Why would we help you with an evil plan? There's no way in the name of Celestia and Luna are we helping you." Scootaloo said.

"Oh you're not helping me willingly. Heh heh heh...." Slender Mane went.

Suddenly a sewn on smile appeared on him and it opened to reveal bloody fangs. He then produced three tendrils and grabbed the CMC. Then a red aura went onto them and mist went around them and their shadowed selves showed them being shocked and suddenly getting larger and when they fell onto the ground something surprising happened.... the three had been turned into grown-ups like all the other ponies. And then a black light went on their flanks and then the same circle and x on Slender Mane appeared on them.

"Rise." The tall pony said.

The three ponies then got up wearily and when they opened their eyes they had become completely black. They then bowed down to Slender Mane and said,

"Command us.... Master."

"Heh... I like that." The tall pony said.

He then reached inside his suit and pulled out three boxes and threw them near the CMC. When they opened them there were black hoodies with the circle with an x on them, black boots and three masks.

"Put those on." Slender Mane commanded.

The CMC did what they were told and put on the offical clothes of a proxy.

"Now you will follow my every command without hesitation or questions. You will help me in my conquest to destroy the accursed Celestia and Luna." The white pony said.

"As you wish our dark lord." The Cutie Mark Proxies said.

Then a smile went on the Slendermane and he said,

"Excellent..... However we our not done..... Our army needs to grow, grow and grow. And when we are powerful enough.... Then we shall be able to take on the accursed Princesses."

"Who shall we seek?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Who shall join us?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Who shall gain the privelage of joining our army?" Scootaloo asked.

"Follow me and you shall have the answers." Slendermane said.

The four then galloped into the forest to make their army of darkness grow.
