(The lights turn on to reveal Pinkie Pie in her room, disturbed by the events in the previous chapter.)

(Pinkie Pie)

"It wasn't a ghost! It was just a figment of my imagination. Nothing more. Nothing less. But if it wasn't my imagination? What if Dashie has come back to haunt me?"

(Pinkamina appears.)

(Pinkamina)

"Don't be ridiculous Pinkie! Only a fool like yourself would think, see and say such things!"

(Pinkie Pie)

"Okay, even if it wasn't a ghost, I definately saw something under that light! It looked exactly like Dashie!"

(Pinkamina raises a hoof and slaps her across the face. Pinkie Pie falls to the floor as Pinkamina stands over her.)

(Pinkamina)

"QUIET PINKIE! You're acting like a filly and it's not very professional!"

(Pinkie Pie pushes Pinkamina away.)

(Pinkie Pie)

"I'm not acting like a filly! And YOU'RE the one who's acting unprofessional! Are you just trying to make me mad?! 'Cause you're doing a real good job at it!"

(Pinkamina)

"I'm not the one who's trying to make you mad!"

('Dark World' from 'Luna Game 3' begins to play as Pinkie Pie turns away from Pinkamina.)

"Don't you understand Pinkie Pie? Nobody's making you mad but yourself."

(Pinkie Pie)

"I don't believe you. And I don't see any reason why I should."

(Pinkamina)

"You're able to cope with murder Pinkie. I know. I saw you murder Gilda."

(Pinkie Pie turns back to face Pinkamina.)

(Pinkie Pie)

"No! That was an accident! I never meant to kill her! She started with me! She went back to her meanie-mouth ways and tried to pick a fight with me after we couldn't find Dashie! She took several claws at me, I pushed her away and before we knew it, Gilda broke her neck by hitting her head on a rock! And you call THAT murder?"

(Pinkamina)

"Yes, BUT I wasn't the one who grabbed a live parasprite of a near-by tree and shoved it down her throat, holding it in place whilst she kicked and struggled, trying to break free, until eventually she fell limp from choking to death! Followed by you saying 'Sweet Celestia, what have I done?' and then you took her back to the Sugarcube Corner cellar!"

(Pinkie Pie)

"I was scared she was going to tell someone on me!"

(Pinkamina)

"It's not of any importance right now! There's another job I want you to do. At the memorial for Rainbow Dash, Soarin mentioned something about wanting to die."

(Pinkie Pie)

"So?"

(Pinkamina)

"So I want you to take your tools of trade and grant him his wish."

(Pinkie Pie)

"What?! You expect me to kill a Wonderbolt?! Well, you can forget it! I'm NEVER killing anypony again! Can you imagine how painful it felt for me to cut up my best friend whilst she screamed, cried and thrashed in her bonds?! Well, I've had enough! If you want to kill everypony in Equestria, go ahead! You'll get stopped eventually. But leave me out of this! I've done enough murder for my lifetime! If you want Soarin dead, do it yourself because I'm not killing anymore!"

(Pinkie Pie, breathing heavily, then goes over to her bed.)

"Now leave me alone. I'm going to bed."

(She then lies down on her back and falls asleep. Pinkamina then looks at her as 'Whispers From The Darkside' from 'Luna Game 0' begins to play.)

(Pinkamina)

"You know Pinkie? You're right. I SHOULD do the things I want to do. If I want Soarin, I'll do it myself."

(She then grabs a piece of plastic that looks like a dagger with a sharp blade.)

"Unfortunately, in order to do so, I'll need to kill anypony that plans to get in my way. Including those who I work and play with."

(She slowly advances on Pinkie Pie asleep as she lists a group of names.)

"Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Spike, Fluttershy, Big Mac, Braeburn, Spitfire, even the Cutie Mark Crusaders. If they get in my way, it's suicide."

(She stands just before Pinkie Pie beside her bed.)

"And since you used to work with me, you're first."

(She then raises the piece of plastic, ready to stab Pinkie Pie.)

"It was nice knowing you Pinkie."

(Pinkie Pie then suddenly wakes up.)

(Pinkie Pie)

"WHAT?!"

(Pinkamina then brings down the plastic piece and stabs Pinkie Pie. Just as the dagger makes contact with Pinkie's chest, the lights go out. There is a loud blood-curling scream from Pinkie Pie and loud stabbing sounds in the background as Pinkamina stabs Pinkie Pie to death. After the scream ends, it echoes into the next scene.)
