Competition

"Hey Soul!" The little filly, known as the speaker, called out to Soul...both of them. Since the fight, both Souls decided to let each other go with their ways with a compromise. The compromise is that both Souls has to look out for each other. Soul Light will leave the mare alone to her privacy, and Blood did the same. Three months later, the speaker had returned to Ponyvile with an idea that will be just for fun. Of course, Pinkie Pie decided to be the co host to the competition.

Soul Light asked what she was doing here and she said that she wants a friendly competition for fun. Both knew that the speaker's competition can be a bit...chaotic, but they would not turn it down for that.

"We accept," Soul Blood said.

"GREAT!!! I'll see if others want to join!" The filly wrote down the names on a piece of paper with ink, using her bare hooves.

How did she do that?

Then the filly walked across the street and vanished into an alleyway.

She must have learned that from Pinkie

Oh yea! At 5 o' clock in the marathon track

She makes thought messages too?

Soul Blood shakes her head and tells Light about the location and time. Going back to his house, Light lay on the reddish brown couch, and Blood sat next to Light. Blood wonders how Light would react to selfcest.

"Soul Light?" Blood asked as she looked to the stallion on his back to her right.

"Yea?"

"Would you mind if I..."

"Mind if you...?"

"Sex with you?"

"WHAT!?!?" The noise sent the birds flying away from Fluttershy's house as she says, "Wait! Come back!"

"ARE YOU CRAZY!?!" Light stood up on the couch and looked disturbed and confused as his face said 'What the fuck!?'. Light thought that they could still hear each others thoughts, but due to months of seperation, they had seperate minds. Blood blushes and looks away.

"I knew that was a bad idea," She turns slowly back to Light, but returns her face away from him. Light was thinking about some thoughts. The thought had images of Light fucking Blood, them kissing, and both of them moaning. Light shakes his head wildly against the thought and decided to invite Dash, Derpy, and Fluttershy to play some Left 4 Dead 2.

5:00 PM

"Alright Ponies! This is where I,"

"And me, Pinkie Pie!"

"Get to host a special type of competition. For fun!" The crowd cheers in the sides of the marathon track. Some other ponies though, think that the competition was for bragging rights.

"Here are your contestants!He maybe part filly, but he is all stallion! Soul Light!" Soul Light appears in a red headband and matching red leg bands while the soundtrack "I'm Sexy And I Know It" plays.

"Next, She's sexy, she's cute, and she got the looks, Soul Blood!" Soul Blood stands up with the same get up as Light, with the soundtrack "Everyday I'm Shuffling."

After the introductions of the faster than light Rainbow Dash, The infamous apple bucker Applejack, everypony's favorite mailmare Derpy, and several other entries, everypony crouched on their hooves.

Pinkie Pie, with her blimp and a megaphone, yelled, "GOOD LUCK EVERYPONY!" The speaker closed her ears with her hooves, the crowd silenced, and the contestants pulled their heads back from the party pony.

;"Anyway...On your mark!" All contestants puffed out a breath.

"Get set!" Dash stretched her wings, Applejack prepared like a bull, and Derpy eating a muffin.

How did she get that muffin?

FOCUS

"GO!" Of course, Rainbow Dash zoomed out and finished the race in ten seconds flat. In second was Applejack using her legs to run extremely fast. Third was Soul Blood. Because of her more slick body than Soul Light, she used it to her advantage and went at the speed of the wind.

"That was fast!" The speaker was told from Pinkie that Dash is SUPPOSED to be the fastest pegasus in Equestria.

_________________________________

"Next! Pull off the best trick you can!"

Dash whispered to Light, "Of course I'm going to win," while Light replied, " I always knew you can do it."

"GO!"

Dash sat back and relaxed until every contestant done their trick. Applejack using a rope, Derpy making muffins, Light came up with nothing and neither did Blood, a purple unicorn teleported, a white one made dresses, and several others copied the four. As the last competitor's turn came, Dash flew up at the speed of light, and her mane colors formed an explosion in a circle.

"Dash wins! Again...Hey Dash can you come up here?" Dash did what she was told and Light saw them whispering to one another.

"O.K! Gotcha...um..."

"Just call me the speaker."

"Yea...O.K."

____________________________

"Third! Jump as high as you can! No wings!"

Some pegasi moaned as they walk over to the high jump. Light was first. He crouched his leg and leaped like a cat...but made only one foot high. Blood, since she was lighter, jumped at one and a half feet. Applejack jumped four feet high since she had leg power as an Earth pony. Derpy and Rainbow jumped at the height of three feet, due to their lightweight.

"Applejack wins!"

____________________________

"O.K! Everypony!" The speaker said with excitment as she explains the next courses they have to go through.

"All of these courses are in order by the audience; Tug of war, throwing, accuracy, swordplay, riddles,..."

The list went for a few seconds as she said the last words "...,applebucking and finally, a mystery. Oooo."

Tug of war                                    

"Alright! Here are the pairings, Rainbow against Light, Blood against Derpy, Fluttershy against Applejack, and..." The speaker turns and hearđ a whisper from Pinkie Pie. "Alright everypony! It turns out that two new challengers arrived! Meet the pony stripper! Nashadow! and the royal guard who did one of my competitions before, and won...Ginka!!!"

The crowd cheered as the two step in, both shades of green, stood out from the dirt from the marathon track. The speaker pulls out a set of paper and began reading them. " The rules are, no wings unless the other pony has wings, no magic unless the other has magic, blah blah blah....O.K! We got it!" She toss the paper to her side and rid herself from every paper stack that she had.

Rainbow Vs. Light

"Go!" Rainbow uses her wings to fly back with a great amount of force. Light tries to resist but uses the dirt to his advantage and planted himself on the ground. The lightweight Pegasus tried to pull the heavier Pegasus across the dirt. Light moved inch by inch until he lets go for a moment, and yanks Rainbow in to the ground. With her wings exhausted, Soul flew backwards and tried to make Rainbow get into the brown mud in the center. Both let go and yanked after another. Light tasted an amount of a salty fluid from his teeth. Seeing that Soul was actually bleeding, Dash loosened up and with another yank, Soul beat Rainbow.

Blood Vs. Derpy

"Go!" Derpy and Blood took their tug of war to the air. Tightening the rope at it's center. Both used their wings and flew backwards as the two had no advantage. Both of them struggled to become the victor, but after five entire minutes of pulling and yanking, nopony had the edge. The two flew down, exhausted until Derpy ate a muffin. Blood gave one last yank that pulled the rope into the mud. Derpy was still eating a muffin.

Are you that obsessed with muffins?

Fluttershy Vs. Applejack

"Go!"

Applejack picked up the rope in her mouth and said, "Ahm mno ah'mm mmo mmeasy mmn mmya." Fluttershy picked up the rope and nods. The yellow pegasus tugged against Applejack with little force. Applejack still tugs gently against Fluttershy. Fluttershy tried using the wing tactic but only moved Applejack a centimeter. Not wanting to, Fluttershy used the stare and Applejack dropped her rope, leaving Fluttershy to tug the rope to the mud. Applejack still remains hypnotized by her stare until about five seconds after she stopped.

Nashadow Vs. Ginka

"Now ma'am, I know mares, so I'll go easy on ya," Nashadow turns to Ginka and said, "Don't worry about your manners, I like it rough." Both ponies grab the rope in their mouth, waiting for the symbol to tug.

"Go!"

Nashadow pulls with her mouth and in a few seconds, she won. Ginka was shocked, he had never seen a mare that strong before...'sides Applejack.

Throwing                          

The speaker reads a set of more rules and tossed it away. The only parts ponies got was: Throw, No magic or wings, No harming others.

"Now lets mix up these pairings," The speaker puts the paper slips with their names on it in a basket and drawed randomly.

"Now! We have new pairings!" on the blimp, there was a big T.V on the side of the ballon and with big white letters, it said.

Ginka Vs. Light

Dash Vs. Nashadow

Fluttershy Vs. Derpy

Applejack Vs. Blood

Ginka Vs. Light

The two got their 'point' darts and grabbed them in their mouth. The darts were blue with a silver point with yellow numbers on the side of them. In front of the both of them was a roulette. If you get the corresponding number with the dart and on the wheel, you get that much amount of points added. if you get it wrong however, you lose the points according to the number on the dart. The speaker thinks of a number in her head and tells the two, "I'm thinking of a number from 1 to 10,"

Ginka's response was 9.

Soul Light's response was 5.

"Soul Light's closer! My number was lucky 7!"

Light grabbed the blue dart from a wooden prism, and it had the number 3 on it. Soul threw the number on the roulette and it shot between the bumps on 3. That started it off. Back and fourth, subtracts and adds, throw and grab, until the final dart was on Light's hooves.

Ginka: 15

Soul: 13

On the dart was the number three. If Soul throws it right, he wins, if he miss, he loses. Everything came in slow motion for Soul. Sweat dripped from his face. His teeth grabs the dart, with the silver point shimmering in the sun. Light throws...and the crowd watches as the dart flew in slow motion as the speaker slows it down and speeds it up.

"And he..."

Light panicked, but this was a friendly competition after all, but who knows what the prize will be.

"he...miss."

Shit

"Ginka wins!"

The following results follow...

Ginka

Dash

Derpy

Applejack

Accuracy                            

"Ugh... more rules, Unicorns use magic for throwing arrows. Pegasi use their wings to blow the arrows to the target, and Earth ponies get a blunt object to buck." Fwap! Fwap! Fwap! The paper flew away in the wind and the speaker gets ready for another draw.

Blood Vs. Light

Ginka Vs. Fluttershy

Dash Vs. Applejack

Nashadow Vs. Derpy

The results were shown.

Blood because she is more controlled.

Ginka because he's a unicorn.

Applejack because she's a master bucker.

Nashadow cause she has more aim.

Swordplay

"EVEN MORE RULES!?!?" The speaker growns as Pinkie did the honors, " Use the swords to knock each other out of the ring."

Where's the ring?

The floor shook, the eight rises up to the height of the blimp. All the dirt fell off to reveal a metal circle plateu. In the center was a red line and a blue line parrallel to it.

That escalated quickly...

All the ponies were armed with body armor to protect them from falling and a matching color of their mane with a pole in several shapes.

"Choose your weapons, and no wings or levatating!"

Soul Light, Sword.

Soul Blood, Spear.

Rainbow Dash, Dual Swords

Applejack, Mace.

Fluttershy, Shield.

Derpy, Flail.

Nashadow, Staff. (She's a stripper what you expect?)

Ginka, Hoof guards.

The weapons and body armor matched the colors of the owners manes. The speaker pulls out a draw and then puts it back with Pinkie saying, "FREE-FOR-ALL!" Soul Light readied his sword to be pulled out, Blood attached the spear to her side, Rainbow made two swords on both of her hooves, Applejack grips her mace, Fluttershy shakes with the shield, Derpy spins her head around while gripping a flail, Nashadow spins her pole in her mouth, and Ginka packs his two hooves together.

"Go!" Light and Blood decided to charge at Ginka together, attacking him and pushing him back a little. Ginka stands on his hind legs and prepares a hoof. Ginka spun his leg with the hoof guard round and round until he...SMACK!!! He punched Blood on her face, sending some blood dripping from her mouth as she plants her hoof on the floor and slid. Rainbow Dash spun in a whirl with her dual swords, spinning like a top. Nashadow pokes Rainbow Dash and tilted her spin out of the arena. She stops and realized she spun too much that Derpy looks in her eyes and they were straight, even though the world turned around her. Derpy pokes Dash, making her lose balance and falling out of the ring.

"Rainbow Dash's out!"

"I hate losing..." Dash mumbled as she flew up and spectates the other seven. Blood was bashed by Applejack's hind legs, causing her to fly off the arena.

"Blood is out!"

Fluttershy stood put as the other five clashed at trying to ring each other out. Derpy was also bucked by Applejack. Ginka inched back and back to the edge of the arena at each attempt by Light. Nashadow did her pole dancing and tried to win the crowd as they were getting intense.

"Ditzy is out!"

"Ginka is out!"

Nashadow was pushed by Fluttershy as she couldn't see past the shield.

"Nashadow is out!"

Applejack and Light poked at each other with their weapons. A swing was dodged by Light. A thrust was endured by Applejack. Applejack tried to buck but misses and fell off the arena, grabbing Light's tail with him.

"Light and Applejack are out! Fluttershy wins!"

Riddles                            

"Everypony has to play this game, you have to find the center of the maze by solving riddles along the way. No wings or teleportation." The speaker teleported the eight to the labyrinth. The hedges towered as high as three Ginka's and the eight split up when a riddle appeared on a piece of paper.

"To find the center, enter." All eight went different ways as the next paper appears.

Where do bronies go meet up?

What in the hay is a brony?

Is it like...a bro pony?

Uhhh....

What the fuck?

I heard of them from my computer...maybe they meet at some convention... bronycon?

I never heard of strange creatures of bronies

Convention...right?

Everybody else except Light and Derpy knew the riddle and went to where the sign had said. Light and Derpy went to Bronycon answer, Fluttershy and Applejack guessed Bro Pony, and the other four guessed I don't know.

Light and Derpy had another riddle appear on a sheet of paper.

What do you think is right?

There were two seperate paths, right and...well, the sign says right. Derpy and Light went to their Right as the other six solve another riddle.

What has four legs, then no legs, and then four legs?

Dash and Blood got that one right, while the others went to I don't know. While Derpy and Light solved another riddle, the other ponies were getting dangerously far behind. The ones that answered I don't know reached a dead end. Dash and Blood solve the riddle, What do you think is right? Derpy and Light reached the center of the maze, to face one last riddle.

What is one of Shakespear's quote?

"To be or not to be."

"Light wins!" The eight were now transported back to the marathon track, where the arena was hidden safely under dirt.

After a few more challenges of wins.

"Applejack wins!"

"Dash!"

"Nashadow!"

"Ginka!"

"Ginka!"

"Blood!"

"Applejack!"

"Nashadow!"

How many times have I fucking lost?

"And Applejack wins the applebucking!"

"Now here's a chance to turn the tables, the mystery course will tie you up with the best winner! If you win this! You and the other winner will get a prize!"

Fuck the prize

"And since I read a book recently and the audience suggested this, the mystery course will be.."

And then those words froze everypony as she spoke the three words that may be life and death.

THE HUNGER GAMES

"All righty everypony! The hunger games shall begin! Each of you will be in teams of two! One mare and one stallion per team! The goal here is to survive against all odds put against you! If there is no winner, the team that died most recently will win! Good luck every pony!"

Nashadow and Soul Light.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash.

Soul Blood and Ginka

Fluttershy and Derpy

Fluttercry and Neutral Dash

I never heard of them

Who the hay are they?

and finally, Celestia and Luna

**Oh* my Celestia Have Mercy*

The ponies were teleported to random areas of the map. Soul Shadow team were assigned to a forest. Apple Dash Team were assigned to a forest. Soul Ginka team were assigned to a desert. Flutter Derpy team was assigned to the desert. Flutter Dash was assigned to an Arctic. Celestia and Luna was assigned to the Arctic.

"LET THE GAMES BEGIN! ...Oh wait I forgot something. And may the odds be ever in your favor!"

The first thing Soul did was find an axe. The stripper was behind him, following up his lead. Soul saw a chest, and inside was a pole, a stick and flint with a knife. With no better luck, Applejack used her applebucking to get some apples for their stomachs. Dash flew upward to see the enemy's location but with no luck, she flew down. Nashadow knew the pegasus would try to see where they were so they hid while she grabbed the pole and climbed a stone structure. On top of the stone structure was a dented dagger. She threw the dagger to Soul Light and she slid down the pole like a fire pony does.

Meanwhile, Blood and Ginka were chopping down trees for wood and made a cabin for the two. Fluttershy was eating muffins that Derpy infinitely spawned out of nowhere. Fluttercry left Neutral Dash to find more supplies as they split up and argued. Celestia and Luna...well they are goddesses so they didn't need to eat but the rules are the rules so they were converted to mortals.

Celestia slept during the night and Luna guarded her during the night. When Luna was caught off guard, Fluttercry charged at Luna, biting her flesh and hitting her with her hooves, Celestia was vulnerable. Neutral carefully sneaked up to the alicorn and tore off her wings by restraining her with her own wings. Two cannons fired as the royal sisters were eliminated.

Guess they forgot what it's like to be mortal Soul thought to himself while their faces appeared on the screen glass above them. Sunrise was close so everypony had to sleep except that the first two killers refused to sleep.

Chirp Chirp. The birds sang their morning songs as Fluttershy attracted more animals. Being an easy target, Blood disguised herself as a bush and killed her with a sharpened piece of wood. The second after Fluttershy was killed, Derpy looked to her left and was killed by Ginka snapping her neck with his horn. Two more cannons fired as their face appeared on screen.

"Dash! I found them!" Applejack said as Light and Nashadow slept in their stone structure. Dash grabbed the knife and stabbed Nashadow in the heart while Light grabbed Nashadow's pole and knocked her out. Applejack came in and tried to buck them with her two hind legs but Light took out the dagger and stabbed AJ on her neck. The farmer was bleeding and soon she was dead as Dash joined her death when Soul stabbed her in her own heart. Three more cannons fired as more pony faces appeared on screen. Light looted the two murderers and set off to find the rest of the ponies.

Seven down, four to go.

The map was small for holding twelve ponies so making them die was easy as making instant soup. Ginka met the two soul entities and was overwhelmed when Blood had to make a tree fall on them. The three, Ginka, Neutral, and Fluttercry died from the suffocation. The only ponies left was Soul Light and Soul Blood.

Then the floor had shattered. Leaving the two Souls to fall in the world. They saw each other in mid air and decided to fight. The match ended in a few seconds with Soul Light jabbing a knife to her side.

"The winner is...Soul Light!"

They were transported back and healed as the crowd roars and clap.

"Now for your prize!"

Aww...shit

The ground shook when a big stone structure in the shape of a crystal ball, shattered itself from dust and rock to reveal a bright clear blue diamond.

This isn't so bad

When Soul tries to claim his prize, he was knocked back into a wall when the diamond turned into a dark crystal unicorn.

Shit

Why does all my prizes turn out like this?

"What has brought me back?" A deep female voice yelled across the track.

"U-Uh...me" The speaker raises a hoof in the air. The shadow crystal pony looks around and determined that the ponies are pathetic and did not deserve the love they had. She made a shadow ball and it engulfed all the ponies into hating one another. The only ones who weren't affected were those who already hate and those who can control Souls.

"So...You!" The dark crystal pony points a hoof to Soul Light.

"You won the games right?"

"Yes..."

"Then I shall take you as my husband!"

"NEVER!" Soul Light charged at the shadow pony and went through her.

"It's a shame you do not see reason. If you wish to stop me, then defeat me." She makes an evil laugh.

Straight out of a comic book eh?
