Pinkamena glanced around, she was almost done with her potion. Soon she shall be released into the world as a free pony! She cackled, marring the normally cheerful features of Pinkie Pie's face. She was sick of being stuck in this stupid mare's body. Nopony should be so happy, friendly, and cheerful. Pinkamena finally found the final ingredient, gryphon feathers. The insane pony had given Zecora the pleasure of her visit, and she had 'borrowed' her book of potions. She found one on creating a new body, and another on seperating two minds. Pinkamena already had her new body created. Her new body had a dull red color, and her mane was cut short, as was her tail. They were a brilliant black. Pinkamena looked at her new body enviously, and she began stirring the potion to split minds. As it began to boil, Pinkamena stuck Pinkie's entire face into it and drank deeply. It only hurt for a few seconds, and then she was seing the world with new eyes. Pinkie's body was now fully concious, and she looked upon Pinkamena with horror. She had known that she had been containing a murderous mare, but she had never know she would manifest in the physical world. Pinkie Pie took no extra time to quickly gallop out of Zecora's hut. Pinkamena laughed, knowing she would kill her later. She would start with Pinkie's dear friend Rainbow Dash. Start what though? What horrible thing was she going to do? The scariest of smiles appeared on her face. She knew what she was going to do. To distinguish herself from Pinkie Pie's love of making cupcakes, she was going to make her favorite candy: Jellybeans. She knew that she would make the out of the pony skins, hooves, and manes. They would be delicious, and it would be the most fun she would ever have on this cursed land called Equestria.

Pinkamena heard a moaning noise towards the back of the hut, and remembered the unconcious zebra.

"Things are not what they seem, but I know you are really mean." complained Zecora, rubbing her head. Pinkamena laughed dementedly. This was going to be her first set of jellybeans. She was excited to begin working on her first creation. Without any hesitation, she cleared off a large section of the table, and lugged Zecora onto it. The groggy zebra didn't have the will or power to fight. Pinkamena had previously knocked her in the head with a rock. She strapped the ever rhyming Zecora to the table with some chains that had been laying around so conviently.

"Don't worry, this will only hurt A LOT!" cheered Pinkamena as she found a large knife and brought it down onto Zecora's front left hoof. The zebra immediately recovered from her stupor and cried out in pain as the knife shredded through her flesh and stopped at the bone. Blood was pouring out of her huge wound, and Pinkamena couldn't be any happier. She began to agonizingly saw through Zecora's thick bones. The zebra writhed in pain, doing everything she could to try and escape. To no avail, she screamed to the heavens as Pinkamena finally cut all the way through the leg. At the rate Zecora was bleeding, she would be dead before Pinkamena was even finished. The red pony grabbed a stick from the fire, and as her dark mane fell in her face, began to burn Zecora's stub to prevent it from bleeding any more. Pinkamena did same to two more legs, but the last leg was harder. It was the back right hoof, and Zecora wouldn't stop moving. So instead of cutting directly above the hoof, the knife landed right in the middle of the zebra's calf. Blood squirted out, and Pinkamena drank it as it shot towards her. She began sawing slowly, breaking through the fur and skin, and slowly obliterating the zebra's muscles and tendons. Opening arteries and veins, blood had now throughly soaked both the ponies coats. Pinkamena was regret full, because now she had to clean the fur before she could make jellybeans. She sped up her sawing speed, so she could clean off Zecora's coat before the blood dried. She sawed completely through the bones at top speed, and took the huge vat of water and dumped it out over the bloody mess that Zecora and Pinkamena were. All the blood, a majority of it still liquid, washed off from the ponies' coats. Pinkamena then put down her knife, and turned her attention to a cabinet full of different tools.

She finally found what she was looking for, and held it up for Zecora to see. It was a huge hunting knife, and it was perfect for shaving and skinning ponies. Seeing the knife sent the zebra into a frenzy, she thrashed fiercely and strained her chains. Pinkamena was in heaven. She had never experienced a joy so great as torture. She heard some magical tinkling noise, and it irritated the mare. She turned around to see where the sound had come from, and she saw something that made her smile. Her flank, which was orginally blank, had been marked with a cutie mark of two knives: the knife she used to cut off hooves, and the one she was about to use to skin Zecora. She grinned, her teeth coated in zebra blood, and returned to the task at hoof. The zebra had stopped thrashing, panting for breath. Pinkamena first removed everything that Zecora was wearing, so the zebra was easy to skin. Then Pinkamena took the knife, and with a quick motion, sliced off Zecora's mane. With a loud chip, Pinkamena also removed the zebra's tail. A few sniffled of pain escaped the limbless creature before Pinkamena. It only encouraged her to do her worst. She pushed the knife as far as it would go into Zecora's flank, and sawed out her left cutie mark. The zebra gasped in shock as her special symbol was ripped off of her body. The right one followed it shortly afterwards. That was all the ingredients she needed, but the torture wasn't finished yet.

Pinkamena changed her torture device yet again, and this time, it was a huge fire ant. Pinkamena picked up the insect with utmost caution, so it couldn't bite her, and placed it on Zecora's body. By then, it was furious for being disturbed, and it began injecting Zecora with it's burning venom with the pincers that was it's mouth. After it had bitten the zebra all over her body, the angry ant scuttled away. Pinkamena took her time thinking over what to do next, and it came to her in a flash of inspiration. She grabbed her steak knife and stared into the frightend zebra's eyes. She felt so powerful, and she gave Zecora a look of fake sympathy before ramming the steak knife as far into her eye socket as possible. The zebra that lie before her seemed to realize that she was going to die today. Pinkamena saw every bit of hope left in her drain out of her. She was saddend by this, but still rammed the knife into the other eye before ending it for the zebra. She cut her head clean off, effectively decapitating Zecora. After that was said and done, Pinkamena took all of the ingredients that she had cultivated from Zecora, she grabbed the bag that Pinkie Pie had left when she ran off. She tipped it over, and the jellybean maker fell out along with the cupcake pan. Tossing the cupcake pan aside, Pinkamena put the ingredients into the little machine and cranked the handle. It took a couple of minutes, but Pinkamena had finished her first set of jellybeans. She looked upon her striped jellybeans proudly. The total of jellybeans was now 25 instead of 0, and she couldn't wait to make more. Next Chapter: One Rainbowlicious Pegasus Estimated time remaining: 8 Minutes
