Cupcakes: The Infernoby AustinToons
Chapters
Part 1
)Moving up and down in her typical bounce, Pinkie Pie made her way across Sugarcube corner and back into the pastry shop's kitchen. The hyper pink mare began rummaging through drawers, cabinets, shelves, and any other place one might store things used in a kitchen, most likely looking through supplies and gathering needed things up. Gazing into a certain 'special' area where the pony kept her personal goods--unknown to anypony else, she scrunched her face up slightly in disappointment. She defiantly didn't have nearly enough of what she needed to complete the baking she had desired to do today. Oh well, she would just have to get some more. Not like the task was boring to her, she rather usually enjoyed it quite a bit. Closing up all the things she had opened, taking care to properly seal her special hiding spot, she smiled to herself. Now she was eager to find out who she would invite over to help her gather her ingredients. She skipped over to another door within the building, leading downward into a seemingly unused basement and opened it, stepping inside and shutting the door behind her. It only too a few short moments for the pink pony to reamerge from the below ground room. She grinned cheerfully and giggled. "Oh what a coincidence!" she chirped, once again bouncing and laughing to herself in delight. Today was going to be a fun time indeed....
Austin was worried sick. He hasn't seen Rainbow for almost a week. He knew she would be back soon most likely but her whereabouts were unknown, he was just taking a stroll through Ponyville. A few ponies said a quick hello, his friends all seemed cheery, he may have hammed up his happiness a bit but it was hard to pretend you were happy when somepony who you loved dearly was gone from you. He walked a bit closer to Sugarcube corner. Right when he was about to pass, Pinkie Pie popped out at him, like she was expecting it. He smiled a bit at her, Pinkie always cheered him up. "Oh hey there Pinkie, What's up dude?" He said kicking the dirt a bit.
Pinkie Pie's grinned stretched wide across her face. "Hiya Austin!" she said in her typical cheery voice. She blinked at him. "Aw, Austin, you don't seem very happy today!" she said quickly coming right up to his face and giving him a little worried look. "What's got you so down?" the pink pony asked tilting her head at an angle that looked almost impossible.
Austin looked at the always beaming Pink mare and gave a tiny laugh at her silly pose. "Oh its just I haven't seen Rainbow in about a week.... she said she was going out for a fly and she never came back.... I'm just really worried but I'm glad I have a great friend like you to try and cheer me up." He smiled a bit at the mare.
Looking thoughtful for a moment, Pinkie stared at Austin. "Oh." she said turning her head back up right. "I'm sure you will see her again soon!" she said, once again smiling again at the Pegasus. "Oh! Oh!" I know what will help cheer you up!" she said bouncing up and down "You should come have some cupcakes with me!" She stopped to look at Austin again "Cupcakes always cheer me up!"
Austin looked at Pinkie awkwardly "Uh cupcakes? Well I have nothing else to do today... I guess I could spend some time with one of my best friends!" He cheered up a bit more, it was silly but he expected that from Pinkie. Knowing her they could be doing anything.
"Great!" Pinkie cheered happily, grabbing Austin and yanking him into the building. She grinned at him before looking over to her side and giving a tiny frown. "Oh, Austin." the pink earth pony said looking back at her friend "I actually think I only have one left. Would you like to help me make some more?" she asked smiling again at him.
Austin thought about it for a second, hovering in the air. "Eh, I dunno. What kind of cupcakes will we be making Pinkie?" He looked at the last cupcake and noticed its Rainbow frosting. It looked appetizing. Yet it saddened him on the inside.
Pinkie smiled at Austin. "We can use my super-duper special secret recipe!" she stated bouncing happily yet again. "You won't have to do much, Austin, I only need a little help." she said. "But the results are ultra spectacular!" she said. "You can have that last one from my last batch over there." The pink mare pointed her hoof to the rainbow cupcakes sitting nearby on the table.
Austin flew over and grabbed the cupcake and flew back to Pinkie. "Well ok...." The orange Pegasus took a bite. He chewed and swallowed. "So uh what are we waiting for now Pinkie?"?
Pinkie just stood there and continued to smile at Austin. The effect of the cupcake suspected to kick in at any second. Giving out a giggle she said "You'll see."
Austin started feeling woozy. The room was spinning in circles "H-Hey.... W-wha...?" He falls over on his back legs. He vomits, he feels like he's on a fast amusement park ride. "P-Pinkie Piiiiieeeee....". That was it. Knocked out cold.
Pinkie laughed slightly at Austin, smiling as he was quickly unconscious. "Hm.. so much for that last cupcake though!" she said looking at where Austin had regurgitated onto the floor. Shrugging it off, she quickly cleaned it up, then returned her attention to the passed out Pegasus on the floor. Grabbing him, she half dragged, half carried him down into the basement of Sugarcube Corner. Reaching her destination in the dark underground room, she strapped Austin onto a large flat surface, similar to an operation table. Making sure he was tied down all nice and tightly, assuring her wouldn't be able to get out, she clopped her hooves together in excitement. Now she could finish preparing both him and everything else for when he woke up....
About an hour later, Austin woke up in the dimly lit room. He tried to stretch but realized he was totally immobile. He looked around the room, near the back he could see a ghastly figure with a wide smile on her face. Streamers made from intestines were lined across the walls, skulls in bright colors were hung up, everything else he saw was Made of skin and bones. Austin panicked a bit, trying as hard as he could to get loose but quickly realized it was no use and stopped fighting it. He just sat spread up right, panting.
Pinkie noticed Austin's movement and after watching him for a moment, stepped closer, grinning at him. "Welcome back to reality, Mr. Sleepyhead!" she chirped. The pink mare seemed completely normal seeing as how she was acting just as she normally would, nothing about the situation seeming weird. Though there was a noticeable new feature about her. Pinkie was wearing a strange dress, crudely fashioned from dried skin, cutie marks lining it in no particular pattern. Pegasus wings, all of a different color sprouted from her back, while a necklace of unicorn horns dangled around her neck. "Did you have a nice nap?" she asked still smiling and staring at him with big round blue eyes.
Austin gasped but went into sarcasm. "Actually yes Pinkie my nap was quite delightful and- IT WAS HORRIBLE! W-what’s going on?! What is this?! What's with the dress and ugh.....My head" He stopped yelling for it was make his head pound him more. His whole body felt sluggish and weak. Like a nice long nap. Only this wake up wasn't pleasant he thought as he looked at the bloody Decor and friend.
She giggled at him once again, a single snort coming from her. "Well Austin." she said stepping a little closer to him. "You are strapped down, we are in the basement..." she trailed off for a second "Oh my dress!?" she gave a big grin "I made it myself you know!" she mentioned, seeming proud of herself "Do you like it?"
Pinkie blinked several times at the Pegasus, before giggling yet again. "Well I told you we were going to be making cupcakes, Austin!" The pink mare's eyes drifted to Austin's head for a split second "Oh!" she said "Hold on!" she dashed back further into the basement, apparently looking for something. "Ah hah!" she said, the sound of wheels on the floor escorting her as she came back closer. She was pushing what appeared to be a large tall framed mirror, though the reflective side was facing her, so Austin couldn't see into it.
Austin was getting more mad, "This is making cupcakes?! What does me being tied here have to do with making cupcakes?!" He then saw she was rummaging for something and had a large,tall mirror. "W-What are you doing with that?! Why in Equestria do you have that huge mirror?!"
"Tsk, tsk, somepony is cranky after his nap!" Pinkie said raising a brow at him. "I have a surprise for you!" she sounded excited again, wheeling the mirror closer to him before spinning it around, revealing his entire reflection to him. Austin's mane, and even his tail too, had been completely bleached and drained of its original color, but instead of being white, it had been dyed, and recolored with rainbow colors, almost like that of Rainbow Dash's hair. Pinkie smiled around the mirror. "I couldn't decide on a color!" she stepped around to be beside the mirror rather than behind it. "So I just gave you them all!" she laughed "And I figured you would like it better anyways..."
Austin looked himself and hawked. It made him feel embarrassed and depressed. He wanted to cover his face but he couldn't. "Pinkie w-why..... I thought we were friends..... why would you do this to me.... what are you going to do to me..."
"Well you know, Austin." Pinkie suddenly sounded more serious than usual, but still chipper none the less. "Brown can sometimes be such a nasty color...Like mud." she said sticking her tongue out. "Oh...but then it could also be life fudge or chocolate..." she said placing a hoof to her chin and trailing off for a moment. She shrugged and laughed at herself looking back to the restrained Pegasus. "We are friends Austin!" the earth pony said blinking at him. "And I am so so so so sooo glad you decided to help me! That's what friends are for right?" she asked him, giving him a big smile. "Oh.." she grumbled trailing off to herself again. "My start has been kind of slow lately..." the pony mumbled "I guess I will have to remind myself to keep the introductions short!" Laughing at herself once again she walked over to where a another wheeled surface lay concealed under a small sheet. Moving it off, she revealed an elevated medical tray, lined with sharp tools one might find in a surgery room. "Hmm..." Pinkie mumbled "Where to start.."
Austin noticed all the tools and sharp objects under the sheets. And he looked down "Pinkie.... how exactly am I helping you make these cupcakes?" He looked scared but confident nonetheless. He looked serious as a heart attack.
"I need some more of my special ingredient..." Pinkie said still surveying the tools in front of her. She shrugged to herself seeming like she had been contemplating with herself and decided just to go with what she had first thought. Picking up a scalpel off of the tray she turned back to Austin "You are helping me get some more!" she said happily and stepped back up to him.
Austin gasped, on her dress he saw it. Rainbow's cutie mark. He first started to tear up, them streams of tears ran down his face as he just got angrier. Even though he couldn't move, he could still speak. "What did you do to her...."
"Do to who...?" Pinkie asked looking slightly confused for a moment before she caught on. "Oh! Rainbow Dash?" she asked smiling. "She did help me too a few days ago.." she said "She's still here too! I'll go get her for you!" the pink pony grinned setting the tool down momentarily and walking back off around a corner to what looked like another small room in the basement.
Austin continued to silently sob, he knew what he was about to see might not be pretty. He didn't know any thing anymore, all he had left was his self confidence which was slowly deteriorating as well.
Pinkie's hoofsteps could be heard heading back a few short moments later, being accompanied by another set of wheels. The pink mare came back up to Austin with an obvious taxidermished corpse of Rainbow Dash. The Pegasus no longer had her wings, nor cutie mark on either side of her flanks. Small parts of her coat and hair, mainly around her hooves, were singed, and her face had been contorted and stitched up into what looked like a smile. "I told you that you would see her again soon!" Pinkie said smiling at Austin. "Look, now you can have her with you while you are here!"
Austin was in shock at the deformed corpse. He puked again, his stomach couldn't handle this. "D-Dashie....." more tears came streaming down his face in rapid succession. He looked at his dead girlfriend and realized he was in for similar fate. His tears of sadness and depression soon turned into fierce rage. He let out a large cry and with what he could move started to thrash around in the operation table. He was causing it to wobble and shake but no escape was possible. It was hopeless, this was the end of the line.
Pinkie frowned a little at the thrashing Pegasus. "Aw, come on Austin." she said pushing away the mirror she had obviously forgot to remove before. "At least Dashie is here with you!" Pinkie grinned again as she moved the stuffed body a little closer to Austin and at his side. "Now.." she said, stomping a pink hoof down on the hard floor. "I think we have wasted enough time!" Moving over to the tray and pulling it closer for better access. She picked the scalpel she had previous set down back up. "I don't have ALL day you know!"
Austin looked down and sighed in sadness. He had no idea what his so called friend was going to do to him with that sharp scalpel but he knew he was in for a rough time.
Pinkie smiled at Austin's lack of movement. She bounced over to her friend's side. "Now hold still so I don't mess up!" she said as she raised the medical tool "Rainbow Dash had to learn that the hard way!" she laughed lowering the scalpel and starting to cut a circular incision around his cutie mark.
Austin let out a large painful grunt. He had never experienced a pain like this, he began to sweat in agony. As she got deeper and deeper into his flesh, he cried out in pain and agony. He couldn't withstand it anymore, the pain was unbearable, he could feel the blood dripping down his sides. This was not his friend. This was a deranged psycho killer. The only bright side to this was that he would be seeing Rainbow soon hopefully.
After finishing the full cut around the pony's cutie mark on both sides, the pink earth pony set the scalpel down, still smiling just a happy as ever. She then picked up another tool-- a skinning knife. With the new instrument in her possession she began to carefully work the knife underneath her previous cuts, sliding the knife down to peel the skin away from the rest of him, leaving the exposed, raw bloody flesh underneath. After she had finished working off both of his cutie marks she grinned and held the detached skin up to his face. "Look Austin!" she said still grinning at him "Aren't they lovely?"
Austin was panting and sweating in harsh agony. He looked up at his cutie marks on his orange coat. "Lemme guess? New additions to your dress now?" He looked down, the sweat was in pools underneath him near where he regurgitated for the second time. He wanted to die right now, but it wouldn't happen.
"Hmmm, maybe!" Pinkie giggled looking down at her dress. "But it already has quite a bit, don't you think?" she smiled and moved back over to the tray, setting down both the skinning knife and both of Austin's cutie marks. "I bet I could find a better use for them! Creating new thing is always fun!" she smiled "Don't you think so Austin?" she gazed at him and shook her head slightly "You look terrible!" she huffed "And we have barely even started!" the pink pony laughed once again, reaching into a bag next to the tray that must have contained more tools. "Oh!" she piped up "This has become a very recent favorite of mine! But I still never go my question answered..." she grumbled pulling out a jagged looking saw. "Why DO they call it a hack saw?"
He knew she was mocking him with that. He was the element of creativity. And then those words hit. BARELY. EVEN. STARTED. He knew this was bad, but the fact that she was going to take her sweet time was even worse. Then he looked at the jagged, sharp tool. "N-no.... Pinkie please... not a hack saw." Maybe if he answered her question she'll use something else. "Its a saw used to tear apart or hack hard objects..."
Pinkie ignored his plea, still staring at the tool. "Yeah but..." she mumbled "Its still a saw! You don't HACK with a saw!" she swung the object, mimicking hacking away at something as if using it like and axe. "You saw with it..." she then pretended to move it back and forth over something. "Oh well, I guess it doesn't matter." she laughed and turned her attention back to her prisoner. "You know Austin, it was actually when Rainbow Dash was here helping me that a grew to like this thing!" she smiled "I had forgotten to sharpen my knife! Boy, was that silly! I couldn't get it to cut through her bone, so I grabbed this instead, and I sure ma glad I did!" the pink pony ran her hoof along the side of the sharp blade. "It is so much better than a big ol' butcher knife anyhow!"
Austin got angrier "DONT TALK ABOUT HER." He couldn't believe her. And from what it seemed, it looked like she’s been doing it for a long time. He didn't know of this torturous side of his friend. He knew that she would be stopped or they would find out sooner or later, but he decided to not say what has probably already been said by another victim.
The curly-maned mare blinked at him. "Well you do love her don't you, Austin?" she asked, tilting her head and moving back up next to him."I thought you wanted to know what happened to her." "Who else would I talk about to you?" she giggled. "I could have even told you she was still alive! That wouldn't have been very nice!" The mare touched her nose to Austin's wing, before gently grabbing it in her teeth and pulling it to make sure it was stretched out and open all the way.
"I know what happened to her. You killed her." He said sternly, Austin looked at what she was doing. "H-hey uh what are you doing to my wing?! No! Not my wings! I need those!" He was begging. He was ashamed to but it was really his only option.
"I know what happened to her. You killed her." He said sternly, Austin looked at what she was doing. "H-hey uh what are you doing to my wing?! No! Not my wings! I need those!" He was begging. He was ashamed to but it was really his only option.
Pinkie laughed at Austin letting go of his wing. "No you don't silly!" she said laughing even more "You are never going to be able to use them again anyways!" Shaking her head and still giggling lightly, she held the end of his wing down with one hoof, and lined the hack saw up at the base of it. "Now this shouldn't take too long!" she chimed in a sing-song voice as she pressed the saw down onto his wing, and began to move it back and forth.
Austin gritted his teeth. He let out another agonizing cry. He moved his wings but that only seemed to make the cuts into it more deep. And deep and deeper still. "OW!!!!" He cried out. The pain and burning sensations were only getting worse still. Feathers from his wings fell to the floor, blood with them. He never was in so much pain in, all his life. "Pinkie this isn't you....stop it....please.." he said softly as he was losing more blood and energy.
"What do you mean?" Pinkie asked, sawing into his wing a little harder as she began to shred through the bone. "Of course its me... Do I look like anyone else to you?" the pony laughed, the saw finishing its job on his first wing as it cut completely through, leaving the blade to hit the table behind it and the wing, now detached from Austin's body, held under Pinkie's hoof. She took a step back taking the wing with her and examining it, smiling, seeming rather pleased. "You have nice wings Austin..." she said playing with it for a moment.
Austin couldn't take that comment. A part of his personality was just torn from him. "I mean Pinkie...." he said panting "You don't kill and torture others.... that's not you....."
"Well I have to get my ingredients somehow!" she said looking back at Austin. "And the best way to do it, is to do it yourself!" she set the wing down and moved over to the other side of the Pegasus, where his other wing still remained untouched. "No one else would do it right by my, super special Pinkie Pie standards! Why do you think my cupcakes are so yummy and different?" she smiled at him. "And I especially love having a friend, somepony I care about, being here to help me!" She grabbed his other wing and began to saw down onto it as well.
Austin turned his head just a bit to see her. He had eaten Cupcakes from her before. He gasped when he also realized "YOU MEAN ALL THIS TIME ALL OF THE CUPCAKES WEVE ALL EATEN....WERE OTHER PONIES?!?!" Austin wanted to puke. He wanted to throw up everything he had ever eaten right there. But he couldn't due to his lack of energy. He let out another tear for all the lives lost.
"Mhmm!" The pink pony grinned as she finished ripping through his other wing. "I have been doing this for a loong time, Austin!" she said placing the other wing she had just cut off down with its partner. Pinkie looked back over at him, still smiling. He was now without wings, the skin where his cutie marks were remained bare bleeding flesh, and his dyed hair made it all look silly to Pinkie. She giggled "Oh, you look like an orange Rainbow Dash." she giggled as she examined her work.
Austin yelped again. He had nothing now. "B-But won't everypony be worried about me and Dash?! What about everypony else you've killed?! What about their friends and family?! How are you going to cover this up?!" He was yelling through sheer pain alone. His wings and Cutie mark were gone. He was nothing. Not only that but he has also been humiliated, mocked and laughed at besides that.
Pinkie laughed again. "Oh Austin, you don't need to worry about all that!" she blinked at him, her blue eyes shining in the dim light "I told you I have been doing this for a loooooong time." she looked back at her assorted object, tapping a hoof to her chin. "You are being pretty talkative, aren't you?" she smiled gazing back over at him. "I'm glad! Most ponies just sit there and cry and scream the whole time! Can you believe that? How rude!" she added at the end giving a small
pout.
Austin slowly rolled his eyes "I-I cant imagine why.... but like what if Discord comes back or something? Then you wont be able to use the elements then everypony will be screwed over!" He only kept talking to buy him more time and maybe unravel this whole story before he dies.
The pink mare looked thoughtful for a moment. "Well." she said "The elements have been changed before!" she said "I'm sure if the bearer died, then the element could pick a new one!" she chipped seeming pleased with the answer. "Nopony lives forever, Austin! That would happen at some point anyways!" She laughed and looked back into the bag from earlier. "You really ARE talking a lot aren't you?" she giggled "I think you might go pretty far, Austin!" She emerged from the bag with a strange pear-shaped contraption and stared at it for a moment. "Hm..." she mumbled "I never used this one before."
Austin didn't know what she meant when she said he'll go far and he couldn't see what she had in store for his new means of torture but he knew it'll probably be even worse than a scalpel and a hacksaw. "I know that but that doesn’t mean you got to kill them! Old age is just fine!" He said flashing a nervous smile. He was doing horrible, his heart was best furiously, his body had the shakes, his mane was spiky and Frizzy from all the sweat he was producing, he spit out a little blood.
Pinkie gave a big toothy smile and shrugged. "But I do, I have to make my cupcakes somehow! Yesh! When are you going to remember that?" walking up to him with the device she pouted a little. "As much as I love talking, Austie, You are getting very distracting... and I can't work properly when I am distracted." she giggling as she held up the device and turned it in her hooves for a moment before quickly reaching up and shoving it into Austin's mouth. The metal wasn't sharp at all, in fact it was smooth, the wide part that split off into 4 separate branches fitting right into his mouth, the other, smaller end still sticking out. Pinkie just grinned, bouncing slightly in excitement of trying out a new 'toy'.
Austin was scared on what this contraption would do besides shut him up. It may have been smooth but it made it a bit hard to breathe and it was very uncomfortable in his mouth. Not all of it was in but it was sticking on his teeth a bit. He tried to protest but the thing muffled him.
Pinkie giggled as she stood on her hind legs, her front hooves planted on Austin's chest to both keep herself up and gain access to the contraption she had put in his mouth. Grinning in excitement, she grabbed the end of the device that still was sticking out of the pony's mouth and turned it, revealing to be some form of crank. The four branches that were before closed together began to open and fan out inside of Austin's mouth, also now showing that the device was not completely smooth. Set at the very end of each branch was a small blade that had been before hidden. The pink pony smiled as she continued to twist the crank, causing the device to both spread Austin's mouth open and dig the blades into his skin.
Austin couldn’t do anything, not even speak. His jaw kept getting lower, and lower and lower. Tears and sweat were forming in his eyes and forehead. Blood was forming in his mouth, almost gurgling in it. He let out a large painful moan. His eyes were wide and pupils were dilated as he looked into the Pink mares eyes. Blood splattered on her hooves, a few cuts here and there and that meaty cutie mark dress.
Suddenly Pinkie stopped cranking it. She leaned her head back slightly and continued to smile as she blinked at him. "Hmm, I wonder how far I could actually push it..." she gave a giggle "Ah...but maybe later..." She stepped down from him still smiling...always smiling, leaving the device in his mouth. She turned away from him and walked back further into the room like she had done a few times before, disappearing through another door in the basement.
Austin wondered how many rooms there actually were in this basement torture chamber of hers but he was more concerned about the thing in his mouth. He could still move his tongue. So carefully yet very painfully he pushed the device out of his mouth. As the blades came out so did more blood and he screamed in pain and spit the metal device out with a clang. He could move his jaw but it felt numb. Like it had. lost all feeling. He thought as he. closed his mouth, be was still taking deep heavy breathes. As soon as the Pink monstrosity came back he just looked her in the blue eyes to see what she did or was going to do.
Pinkie returned a few moments later, a warm light glowing from the room she had just left. The pink mare stomped up to Austin, glaring daggers at him. "Who said you could take that out!?" Pinkie growled at him flattening her ears. "I was going to take it out MYSELF soon, but you had to be impatient!" she picked the bloody device up off the floor. "Maybe I should just stick it back in? But this time I will push it FURTHER! Would you like that Austin? Is that what you want?"
Austin looked at Pinkie with a little grin, he didn't know why he was but for some reason he was. "Pinkie if you knew me, you would know I'm impatient..." he even gave a little chuckle. "I wouldn't really like it though. Maybe when I'm in heaven I'll draw you a picture of it." He was still horribly injured but he was more. Concerned about Pinkie than anything at this point.
The pink pony continued to glare at Austin, raising one eyebrow at him. It took her a moment to do anything else, but only a moment she straightened up a little, a smile creeping back onto her face. Ignoring what he had said she tossed the device she had used in his mouth aside and turned back. "I suppose I will have to teach you a lesson then." she said picking the hacksaw from earlier back up. "I have a much better punishment for you than that stupid thing..."
Austin just sat there laughing, he was going to fight insanity with insanity. His eye twitched a bit. "OOOH a hacksaw! I'm so scared Pinkie Pie, quick alert the media! I should just lay here and cry! WAHHH! WAHH! WAHH!" A smile was now on his face, even though he was actually scared. He managed to keep the ruse up.
Pinkie once again looked slightly irritated, she gave Austin a small growl as she stepped up and reclined the table, so that rather than being up right he was now laying on his back. She grinned "You know what Austin, I think you have to be the most fun I've had down here in quite some time." she giggled "Look how much we have done already and its not even over!" she smirked at him "And you are defiantly handling it much better than Rainbow Dash did...." She ran her pink hoof over Austin's foreleg, smiling in an odd way as she did so.
Austin just laughed and laughed and laughed. It was eating him up on the inside about Dash but he had to keep going with this ruse. "Ooh now I'm laying down. What's going to happen now? Are you here to kiss me goodnight? Aw wittle Pinkie Pie all ready to cut me up. Its so adorable how you'd going with this! Aw did you want me to scream?" He was actually quite scared at what she was going to do, and why he was lying down instead of being upright again. But no matter what he had to go on, besides Pinkie is a hard pony to pin-point. Especially now.
The mare's eye twitched slightly, Austin had defiantly gotten to her at least some what. She huffed at him, but then just let out a tiny giggle. "Oh...Austin.." she said taking the saw and placing it directly onto the seam where his hoof and leg met. "You shouldn't have done that...." She began to saw into the pony's flesh once again, though this time she wasn't as nice about it. She ripped the tool back and forth in rough, hard, and rather slow succession, allowing the jagged teeth to painfully grind each fiber it touched.
Austin was in so much pain. It was very hard to hide it. It was hard acting like he didn't care and he wasn't in the most painful thing a pony could experience. He just laid down on that cold price of metal as the jagged tool cut through him as easy as cutting a cake. He began to cry both out of fake laughter and horrible pain. "Oh OWWWW oh you got me now Pinkie Pie. Yep I'm going to die but y'know what. That's fine with me, I'll be in heaven with my mare and you'll be here wasting your life." He continued just to laugh and laugh at Pinkie. Like she was just some kind of sick dirty joke.
Pinkie stopped halfway through the process of cutting into him. she ripped the saw out of his flesh quickly, leaving a gaping mess of a partially attached hoof that had also been partially cracked under the pressure. She stomped over to the other side, doing the same to his other hoof, thought a little more quickly this time, as she seemed eager to do something else.... After she finished sawing his other hoof down to about the same place she threw the hacksaw aside. "Well, since you have having such a GOOD TIME, Austin, I think you might really enjoy this..." she said sticking her muzzle up to his face and grinning before turning around and skipping off back into the room she had just previously come out of, the orange light still coming through the open doorway. Pinkie soon reappeared, a pair of long think bars being carried under a thick wrap of leather in he mouth. A ways out from her was a small, thick, bucket-like pot attached to the other end of the two bars. Inside was a bright hot silver liquid...
Part 2
Austin looked at it and was psyched out of his mind. She was going to pour that all over his hooves. Good they are a bit stronger but it'll go straight to the bone. It'll be the worst possible thing, but he was determined to not let Pinkie win this battle. Even if he was to die. "Aw you brought me a nice pot of soup to help my injures? Aw that's so cute Pinkie Pie. You really think your going to get me to crack? Why now? I'm having too much fun." A grin was still on his face. He knew Pinkie never got this and was not used to being mocked and insulted during this. He knew he was getting to her by that look on her smug smiling face.
Pinkie reached his side, smiling. She moved her load to be carefully held in her hooves so she could speak. "Well I'm glad you are having fun Austin!" she giggled, a crazed look in her eyes "I'm having fun too! Quite a lot of fun actually." A wide grin was plastered on her face she held the pot up and carefully tipped it pouring the molten metal directly into the wound she had made in his hoof. The hot liquid immediately began to burn into the exposed flesh, a loud sizzle and even an occasional pop sounding from the contact, quickly leaving a rank smell of burning flesh and metal. Pinkie giggled at the sound, going over and doing the same to his other hoof, and grinning widely as she did so. "Oh wait..." she said looking at Austin "You wanted soup?" she asked taking the pot and holding it over his face "Open your mouth and I can give you some..."
Austin, was smiling but not on the inside. His burning flesh was searing into the bone now. He was letting tears out but kept smiling. "N-No thanks Pinkie Pie! If you poured that soup on me, we wouldn't have any more fun now would we? You wouldn't get to hear me scream and you'd lose all your ingredients! All my organs destroyed just like your brain cells!" He couldn't stand the pain any more so he bit his lip hard. But he kept his happy little grin on.
Pinkie had started to tilt the pot, about to pour the hot liquid onto him for opening his mouth, but she stopped as she heard what he had said. She blinked and quickly walked away putting the pot back where she had originally taken it from and reappearing shortly after. The wide grin on her face was bigger than ever before. "You know what!" she said coming back up to him. "I wouldn't be able to have fun with you if I had done that! Oh, and who wants to eat a cupcake with METAL in it?" she asked rhetorically opening her mouth, sticking her tongue out and pointing he hoof at it for emphasis. "Yuck!" she then giggled again. "Oh but I still have had so much fun already! You are the best pony I ever brought down here!" she tilted the table back up only halfway, so he wasn't laying down anymore, but also wasn't completely upright. "Although." she grabbed another knife and examined it for a moment "I did have quite a bit of fun with Dashie..." she lashed out at the nearby taxidermished pony she just mentioned, slicing its head off. She laughed and ripped all of the stuffing out of the stuffed head, before placing it over her own like a mask. Doing her best to imitate Dash's voice she got directly up in Austin's face. "Ah, Austin, Pinkie did Sooooo many TERRIBLE things to me!" she mimicked with a pout "Why weren't you there to help me, Austin?"
Austin was still crying but he was laughing, "Oh man! That was a good one Pinkie Pie! You always make me laugh! What fun are we going to have now? I can’t wait to get started! I love making Cupcakes with you! Maybe we can keep this going for a lot more time!" He really didn't want to though. He was petrified. And wanted. to be put out of if right now. So he could be. with Rainbow, in total bliss but there was still more coming.
"Ok Austin." Pinkie said smiling underneath Rainbow's face. She got right up to him again, pushing her muzzle against his, the faded rainbow hair that covered her own brushing his forehead. "I will play with you some more.... then maybe I can just leave you here for a while, let you enjoy the wounds in peace, since you seem to enjoy it so much...I can wait to bake some cupcakes...." she retreated "But before that..." she said turning away and trotting off up the stairs the led back to the floor above. She was gone for a couple of minutes, but soon she came back down into the basement with a small present box being carried in her mouth.
Austin was smiling and he looked at the box. "Ooh! Did you get me a present?! I love presents!" He was smiling nervously, he didn't know what it really was. And his wounds ached, he could only move his mouth and only barely so that.
"Yes indeedy!" Pinkie said holding the small wrapped box up to his face. It was light blue and wrapped in a rainbow ribbon. "Oh but wait... I guess you can't open it all tied down..Here, let me get it for you." She said pulling the ribbon off and opening the box. "I brought this one just for you!" The pink pony pulled a piece of meat out of the box and smiling quickly jumped up and shoved it into Austin's mouth.
Austin had the slab in his mouth and unwillingly chewed and swallowed it. He. then smiled nervously. "Mmm! What was that Pinkie?" He wanted to puke again but he held it back. Ponies. don’t eat meat, it tasted TERRIBLE. What he wouldn't give for some hay to get rid of. the taste of meat and blood from his mouth.
Pinkie giggled at Austin. "That was Rainbow Dash!" she said grinning "She wasn't the best I had, but she was still pretty good, don't you think?" She giggled again and looked back into the box "There is a little more if you want it." she said shoving another smaller piece up to his face.
Austin was awe struck. He just ate Rainbow. She was inside. of him. Tears began streaming out. But he kept laughing an insane laugh. "Oh n-no!! I'm quite f-full!" He said with, a very shallow smirk. "Don't want the Cupcakes to be t-too meaty! Now uh what are you going to do to me?!" His fake smile was getting more and more false, but still believable.
The mare continued to smile taking the meat away from his face and eating it herself. She was still wearing Rainbow Dash's skinned face over he own, though by now the seams that had been holding her mouth into a closed smile had ripped open, leaving the lips slightly torn and gaped open, Pinkie white teeth showing through. Her blue eyes wide, but pupils shrunken in a maniacal stare. She grabbed and needle off of her tray and began to pull a liquid into it. She turned back to Austin and jammed the needle directly into his chest, squirting every last drop of liquid into his body. It wasn't certain what exactly she had put in him, or where she even got it, but whatever it was it was strong. The drug would make him delusional and possibly even hallucinate.
Austin groaned at the needle in him. The drug whatever it was instantly put him into a state of bliss and began bubbly laughter. When he saw a streak of Rainbow come to him. He had his wings and cutie mark back and he was wondering if he died and literally went to heaven. "D-Dashie?" He said to her. While in reality he was knocked out cold, tongue sticking out. Not seeing anything and could barely put out a real word.
Pinkie rippled with laughter as she watched Austin. "Awww.. Austie! You weren't supposed to fall asleep!" she said laughing. "Maybe I used too much..." The pink pony shrugged and giggled once more, bouncing over towards the other end of the room where a light switch controlled the little light that was already in the basement. She flicked it off, leaving the room in complete darkness though she didn't leave. She sat there for a while waiting for Austin to come back to.
Austin smiled widely "R-Rainbow, Pinkie Pie...... she’s killing me now." He said with a large frown.
Rainbow Dash gazed over at Austin in surprise, her eyes wide. "Austin..." she mumbled "I'm sorry... I wish I could have told you...." Her body had a whole pale brilliant glow around it, and he eyes shined brightly like a clear pool reflecting the stars. Wings spread she came over to him and touched her muzzle to his.
Austin let out a tear, "This is the most painful and frightening experience of. my life, she used. your carcass to be like you, made fun of you, said the things she did to you and she made me eat you....." he was actually crying. "I-Is this heaven?"
Rainbow looked heartbroken, but it was as if she was not able to cry. She gave a simple nod in response. "But you are not fully here..." she said looking sadly at him "You are still alive, Austin..."
Austin gasped "WHAT?! NO! I CANT TAKE ANYMORE.PAIN AND SUFFERING! I.NEED.TO.BE.WITH.YOU.!" Streams of tears were coming out, the only time Rainbow had ever seen him cry.
The Pegasus stared at him for a moment, a frown crossing her face. She walked up to him placing her head under his chin. "I know..." she mumbled "You will be soon..."
Austin hugged the Cyan Pegasus tight. "Well at least here we won’t have to worry about anything like this, how is heaven? Doing everything you've dreamed?" He.was.trying hard to lighten the mood.
For a couple of heartbeats, she was silent, almost as if she wasn't quite sure how to respond. "Yeah." she said pulling back a little to look at him. "But I was worried.... about how you were, and how you felt when I.... disappeared....."
Austin looked down "I was. worried sick, I got depressed without you and with all the things Pinkie did to you.....Well lets just say you'll be avenged. I swear." He said with a bit of a smile.
Dash sighed and shook her head sadly. "I'm sorry... I wish I could have at least told you somehow...." she blinked at him. "How do you intend to follow through with that?" she asked raising a brow at him.
Austin just smiled and began to disappear "You'll see" he woke up with a gasp but he couldn't see anything, its like he still had his eyes strapped shut. But he
Could still see two beady blue eyes staring at him. It was smiling hugely, waiting for his arrival to reality.
Pinkie blinked staring in the direction she knew Austin was, waiting for the pony to wake back up. As soon as she realized he had finally come to, she grinned and very slowly began to step back towards him. All that could really be heard where her slow hard hoofsteps as she drew closer, and her faint outline was visible with the aid of the tiny amount of dim light she had previously allowed to return to the room. "Good..." she said in a low, but happy sounding voice "You woke back up... I was starting to think you had died." she was drawing closer, but not very quickly.
Austin could now see somewhat well but realized he had to go back to being insane and talkative. He was going to get Pinkie no matter what. "Oh hey Pinkie! Ready for some more fun?"
"Of course!" Pinkie giggled as she continued her approach. "I was waiting for you so you could enjoy it.." the pink mare just continued to smile at him, finally reaching the medial tray that sat near him. She looked at it and picked up a small knife. "You know, its always such a nice thing to be able to have something to smile about..." She then walked up to him, a small grin still plastered over her face.
Austin just laughed a crazy laugh "Y'know Pinkie this is way more fun than your stupid parties we all hated!" He kept laughing and laughing at her.
Pinkie's eye twitched at the comment, her eyes wide, but pupils contracted to fine point, yet she was still smiling. "But this kind of is like a party, Austin..." she said coming up from behind him over his head. "But I love it when you are happy..." she said before placing the knife in her mouth and using her hooves to grab the corners of the broken pony's mouth, stretching it out into a bigger smile than he already had from his laughter. After another twitch she took the knife and dug it deep into the edges of his lips, creating a deep slice all the way up to the back of his cheeks, making it look like he had a huge, deep red grin.
Austin kept laughing and laughing "Oh owiches Pinkie! You like making smiles don't you? Why don't you make us actually smile for once instead of just making us laugh at you more than we already do? HA HA HA HA HA HA!!" He couldn't even feel the cuts from the drug and that torture device stuck in his mouth. The smile got a bit wider. with every laugh.
The earth pony's eyes grew wider, and she almost fell back from where she was above Austin. A tiny growling whine came from her mouth, her hair starting to ruffle up and straighten. She walked back around and glared at Austin. "S-shut up.."
Austin smiled a bit more "No, I like making fun of you! Everypony does! You really think we liked you?! Oh man that's a hoot! Why don't you just kill yourself now and spare you the trouble! Because we're not laughing with you we're laughing at you! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!" He was going to suffer but it would be totally worth it.
Pinkie's hair made an audible 'pop' as it went completely straight "SHUT UP!" the mare squealed at him, growling and gritting her teeth in rage. "JUST SHUT UP!" She picked the knife up off the floor, as she had dropped it when she had went into her rage. "I should have cut your STUPID TOUNGE OUT a LONG time ago!" She zipped right up on top to Austin in a flash, snarling at him, her eyes reduced to slits. She shoved the knife into the already slit open edge of his mouth. "How about you don't talk anymore? Ever!?"
Austin just kept laughing "Ok ok you got me! Your going to kill me now! Make me into cupcakes and feed me to everypony! But before you do, Don’t I get my last request?" He said smiling and chuckling a little. He had done it, he was finally going to see Rainbow and get away from this hellhole.
Pinkie blinked at him, slowly removing the knife. "Fine..." she pushed her muzzle up against his own once again. "Go on... What do you want to say?" Her eye twitched once more as she stared right into his eyes, waiting to hear what he had to say before she shut him up for good.
Austin just laughed and laughed "Ok! Ok! Tomorrow, at around 1:30pm go to the clearing in the Everfree Forrest! There will be a VERY important note I would like you to read!" He said laughing at her insanely.
Raising a brow at Austin, she smiled once again "Is that all?" she laughed slightly. "Okie Dokie Lokie! she them picked the knife back up and shoved it into his mouth, wiggling it around and cutting into his tongue sloppily, like she wasn't trying to be careful at all. After a moment she had completely cut through it, leaving the blood to pool in his mouth, she didn't even bother to remove the chopped flesh. Stepping back she smiled "There! Now you won't say anymore of those mean words!" she chirped smiling at him. "I think we are about done now, Austie..." she turned around examining all her different tools as she contemplated how she should finish him off. "It has actually been quite fun!" laughing she looked back at him "You were one of my besty-best friends, Austin, even if you did start to say all those nasty things." She stared at him with an almost loving look "But I will forgive you. We don't always say the best things, and we may not always mean what we do say!" she giggled "I am sure you were pretty shocked! Oh, but you seemed so happy to be with me! At first it made me happy! Not many ponies seem to enjoy it as much as I do. SO I kept you alive a lot longer than I usually would have." she gave him a wide grin "Yep, You would have been dead a looooooooooooong time ago if you had just been quiet!" She let out a high pitched laugh as she turned back and picking up the red band she had taken off of his foreleg before they had even started their fun. Coming back up to him she wrapped it around the middle of his face, covering his eyes with it like a blind fold. "I have one more surprise for you..." she said, though she knew the pony couldn't see her smirk. She quickly walked over and grabbed another tool from near the medical tray, a long rugged object with a strange formed end. She trotted back over to Austin, giving out a little eerie hum as she did, standing next to him as she continued to hum, and allow him to just listen to her for a moment. She took the tool and began to rake it across Austin's flesh, digging and peeling into it, slicing off slivers and chunks of flesh as if peeling a potato. She let it scrape across him in a few different areas for a moment, not sure how quickly it would take him to die from all the blood he had already lost, but she enjoyed the sweet sensation all the same. After a little more time of just picking at his skin she began to dig the tool into his chest, repeatedly slicing over and over into the same spot until it began to grind into his ribcage. Feeling this she glanced over for a split second before pounding the tool down into the crater she had formed, cracking the bones and piercing through.
Austin cried through the head band. His permanent smile was still on but he was smiling on the inside too. After she had Gave him the finishing blow. He was gone, he had survived 2 hours and 45 minutes. The longest Pinkie had ever taken with a victim. After what seemed like an eternity, he found himself woken up on a soft plushy cloud. His wings and cutie mark returned. Not a scratch on him actually. A large golden glow came from two large solid gold gates, as he flew. up to it, they slowly but surely opened causing a large blinding light to appear, he covered him eyes and the heavenly glow but he could see a shadow of a. Pegasus and as it was revealed who was there to meet him, it was none other than Rainbow Dash. Giving him a large. calm smile. "I'm here Dashie...."
Pinkie giggled as she knew Austin had finally died. Letting out a soft sigh she dropped the tool she had used to finish him off and smiled as she unfastened the bindings on his mutilated corpse. "Well, it sure was fun Austin!" she gazed down at the body hitting the floor as the last security holding him to the table was undone. "I did tell you would be with Rainbow soon..." Her hair poofed back out, and she returned to her normal happy, bright self as she took the body off to be dealt with. Rainbow Dash nodding at Austin and meeting him. "It’s over..." she said still smiling at him. "We won't ever have to worry about anything like that again."
Austin just flew up to Rainbow quickly and gave her a almost God like kiss as he let out a tear of joy. He just smiled. underneath her warmth and bright heavenly glow. "I'm here with you forever now Dash. No more of our friends but we're together. No more cupcakes.....no more Pinkie." He said still hugging her tight.
Dash just smiled at Austin, her eyes shining. "Oh, how I missed you..." she said laughing slightly rubbing her head on his neck, and nuzzling him. "You are right... we are together now." she looked back and blinked. "Come on, how about we go an just forget about all that stuff!" she said trying to shrug it off "You haven't even really got here yet!"
Austin held out his hoof and smiled "Shall we go in Dashie? I'm sure heaven is the.awesomest place ever!" He. had already forgot about the cupcakes. He was happy and where he was supposed to be.
The Pegasus nodded, beaming over at the one with her. She had been sad the same fate that had befallen her would have happened to Austin as well, and so quickly after her own death too. Though now that they were here together nothing else seemed to be wrong about anything. "Yes!" she said laughing "Come on, we have a lot of things to do!"
Austin nodded as she. grabbed his hoof and the two flew into the bright light and the pearly gates slowly shut.
-EPILOGUE-
Everypony was at Sugarcube Corner, enjoying some delicious chocolate cupcakes with orange frosting. "Mmm!" Twilight said mumbling, a crumb on her.cheek. "Pinkie these are delicious! Did you use your secret recipe.again?"
Pinkie bouncing up and down happily around her friends glowed proudly at the praise "Yup-a-doo!" she chirped at Twilight grinning widely "I'm super duper happy you are enjoying them! They took a little longer to make than usual! But the extra time was worth it, don't you think?" she said shutting her eyes happily as she continued to smile. "Oh! That reminds me! I need to go somewhere for a little while, I promised somepony I would." she said gazing over at the remaining cupcakes in the batch she had made. "You girls can finish those off if you would like, I can always make some more later." She turned her head back to the purple unicorn "See ya later Twilight!" The pink pony called before bouncing out of the door to the sweets shop.
Everypony said a quick goodbye and she was gone.
The clearing in the Everfree Forrest was a bit dark, but you could still see, the occasion hiss or another creature and on a stump waiting for Pinkie as she bounced in was a yellow envelope. Unmarked, unopened.
Bouncing up, seeming fairly unphased by the noises of the forest, the bright envelope caught the pink pony's eye. "Is this what I was supposed to find?" she asked out loud picking it up and examining it for a moment, she smiled as she broke the seal on it and pulling out what was inside.
On a blank sheet of copy paper, in unmistakably Austin's handwriting it only said two words. "GAME OVER." Just then out of nowhere four large bear traps came from up out of the dirt. All hitting the Pink pony's legs. Breaking them all and causing huge amounts of blood to squirt out.
The mare looked puzzled as she saw the words, but her eyes shot wide as suddenly her legs were caught in the traps. She let out a loud squeal as the teeth broke her bones and dug into her flesh. "Nonononoono! HELP! Somepony HELP!" she cried jiggling her messed up legs as best she could, but only succeeding in making the wounds rip deeper into her flesh.
Then as the paper. floated down in front of her the back had some more words. "HAVE FUN. REMEMBER TO SMILE." Just then from the bushes, emitted a large and hungry growl. You could here the few. sniffs from its large nose.
Tears began to stream down Pinkies face as she glanced from side to side at the noises. She was shaking and growing woozy from the shock, pain, and blood loss. She let out a disgruntled whine as her legs wanted to collapse under her but would not do so as the traps held her mostly up.
Just then from the bushes, showed a.large lion like.creature.that looked. strangely familiar. It was a manticore, like the one they had first encountered in the Same.place when they went to defeat Nightmare Moon
Pinkie saw the creature and began to panic even more, letting out another sharp wail. She was confused, how had Austin been able to do this? "OKAY!" she huffed breathing heavy, tears still falling dow her bright pink cheeks. "I get it! Good job Austin...."
The manticore grimaced at his new prey and licked his lips as he pawed the ground. Ready to charge, but gave his victim a chance for defense first.
The helpless mare gazed over at the manticore, her ears flat and her face overcast with fear and pain. She would have run if she could, but even if the traps had leg go of her, her legs would have still been rendered completely useless. Sobbing she tilted her head down and shut her eyes, waiting for the beast to come and finish her.
The manticore then sprung at his chance, as he got closer and closer, he opened his mighty jaws and....
THE END.
