The Dead Of Night: The Menace Returns
Chapter 4: Looking For Pinkie
Previous Chapter Next ChapterAs Rainbow Dash, Twilight, and Fluttershy entered the forest, they noticed that finding Pinkie was going to be harder than they thought.
"No tracks..." Rainbow whispered loud enough for everypony to hear.
"Get out the map." Twilight ordered.
"Why?" Rainbow asked.
"Just do it!" Twi shot back.
"Okay, okay!" Rainbow said as she took the map from her pack. "Now what?"
"I'm going to find out where they took Pinkie Pie." Twilight said calmly.
"How?" Rainbow and Fluttershy asked together.
"Using an old locating spell I learned a few years ago." Twilight explained, "It will tell us exactly where anypony we are looking for is so long as they are somewhere on the map."
"Makes sense," Rainbow said, nodding, "but what if it doesn't work?"
"It will work," Twilight assured, "trust me."
"If you say so..." Rainbow said nervously.
"Alright, now lay out the map." Twi said.
Rainbow did so, and Twilight's horn started to glow purple with magic. Putting all of her concentration into the location spell, Twilight managed to pull it off, and red dot appeared over a place deep in the forest, that is where Pinkie Pie was. So the three headed in that direction, and a few hours of walking later, they found Pinkie Pie, along with five alicorns, all with glowing red eyes.
"Ahhh, there you are!" Said one with a dark purple coat and a blackish-red mane.
"Who are you? What do you want with Pinkie Pie?" Twilight demanded.
"Oh it's not Pinkie Pie we want," the purple alicorn said, "she was just the bait, it's the pegasus who killed our sister!"
"Rainbow Dash?" Fluttershy asked.
"So THAT is her name." The alicorn said. "Makes sense, her having that ugly multicoloured mane of hers!"
"What the buck did you just say?!" Rainbow said, anger rising in her voice.
"Ugly. Multicoloured. Mane!" The alicorn taunted.
"Alright I've had it!" Said Rainbow as she made a jump for the alicorn, which Twilight quickly stopped by catching Raimbow with her magic.
"What are you doing Twilight?!" Asked a furious Rainbow Dash. "Put me down!"
"No Rainbow Dash, that's exactly what she wants." Twilight warned.
"Well, well, well." The leader alicorn mused. "Aren't you a clever one?"
"Just give us Pinkie Pue and we'll leave you alone." Fluttershy just barely managed to whisper.
"And why would we do that?" The midnight blue alicorn asked. "You haven't given us who we want, so why should we give you who you want?"
"What do you mean, "who" you want?" Twilight asked.
"Isn't it obvious? We want revenge!" The leader alicorn said, anger starting to take over her tone of voice.
"They want me..." Rainbow Dash said. "They want to see me dead."
"Finally! Somepony who understands!" The purple alicorn sighed with relief.
"But you can't have me!" Rainbow said, her own anger taking over. "You will never get the chance to harm me or any of my friends ever again!!!"
Rainbow then flew right at Pinkie, who was still being levitated by the alicorn's magic, and crashed right into her. Rainbow then tried desperately to free Pinkie Pie from the alicorn's powerful hold, to no avail. Another alicorn, a black one with a blood red mane, grabbed Rainbow from behind and restrained her.
"Time to go!" She whispered in the pegasus's ear.
And with that, the five alicorns, along with Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie, vanished in a bright flash.
Next Chapter: The Predaki Estimated time remaining: 11 MinutesAuthor's Notes:
Plot twist!!! (Not really...) BTW: I also took the location spell from another fanfic. 'Scarlet Harvest' to be precise. Again, I thought it was a brilliant idea so... Yeah. Don't be hatin.
