Dashie falls: the first, the best

Fastest of the pegasus;

Twilight Sparkle, called to you,

Forever, your will hers to do.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fluttershy scrambled through the doors as soon as they opened. She slammed them shut, ignoring the pain from the spatula embedded in the bone of her wing. Her broken leg, though helped by the makeshift splint, only complicated things further. She took off running. The Everfree Forest was only a few hundred yards away. Fluttershy knew she could easily escape if she could just get into the forest before Pinkie got out.

She had only gone a little ways when she heard an enormous crashing noise resound through the still air. The camouflaged doors flew into the air, spinning around, as pieces fell off. An enormous shadowy figure leapt from the tunnel's entrance, a small blob of pink sitting on its neck like some kind of mane-clip. It roared, bits of shadow flying from its cavernous mouth.

"Hiii Fluttershy!" Pinkie yelled as she waved frantically, "you almost left before playtime was over. Good thing we caught you." She jumped off Pinkamena's quivering back and bounced to a stop when she hit the ground. Giving an enormous kick, Pinkie launched herself over Fluttershy's head and landed in between her and the escape of the forest.

Pinkamena gave another roar, pawing at the ground as if about to charge. "Oh by the way," Pinkie said, began digging a small hole, "Pinkamena is really angry that you hurt her poor eyes like that. You're so mean Fluttershy." Pinkie jumped into the hole and disappeared almost instantly, dirt flew out of the hole and formed a level patch of ground where it was.

Fluttershy turned and began running for the forest when a pink hoof shot out of the ground and tripped her. She fell over and was grabbed by four hooves, each one held a different limb. Pinkamena gave a final roar and charged straight at Fluttershy. The ground shook with every step of the massive shadow pony.

Fluttershy prepared to be trampled but instead was kicked as Pinkamena stumbled on a chunk of the doors she had just broken. Fluttershy felt herself ripped from Pinkie's grasp. The bones in her legs crunched and several punched through the skin.

Fluttershy screamed in pain and tried to slow her descent. Each movement of her wings brought renewed agony and Pinkamena was already rushing towards her, teeth gnashing.

'That ridiculous little mare thinks she can get away with THIS?' thoughts flooded Pinkamena's mind. 'She nearly blinds me and continues trying to run.' "DIE PUNY ONE!" Pinkamena jumped up and caught the falling pegasus in her mouth.

Fluttershy managed to twist and, instead of being swallowed, was caught by her wings. Pinkamena bit down, completely crushing Fluttershy's wings. The spatula stabbed into her gums, but Pinkamena didn't seem to notice. She flung her hung back and threw Fluttershy into the air, prepared to eat the little insect who had dared ruin her precious eyes.

Fluttershy flew through the air once again. She looked down and saw Pinkamena's gaping maw. Her face lost the last semblance of color it held. She flailed as she fell; the enormous blood-stained fangs filled her vision.

A flash of pink flared beneath her and Fluttershy felt herself yanked to the side. "No Pinkamena," Pinkie yelled, hoofing her dark side's nose as she passed, "you know we need more of her than we'll get if you do that."

"She must pay," came the deep rage-filled voice in reply.

"Then hoof her, you know that's what we were going to do anyways."

Pinkamena nodded and lifted her hoof. Every inch it rose seemed to make it grow even larger until its shadow seemed to cover the clearing. Pinkie dove back into her hole and settled in to watch the fun. As the hoof descended, Fluttershy closed her eyes and pushed herself to the side as hard as she could. She rolled under the fleshy part of Pinkamena's hoof and grabbed on as it pushed her into the ground. The hoof came up, carrying Fluttershy with it. She could see Pinkie's head sticking out of the ground, eyes twinkling at the excitement.

Fluttershy pulled herself along, careful to stay out of Pinkamena's sight as she searched for the smashed remains of the yellow mare. "Where are you?" the vibrations from the yell nearly shook Fluttershy off. She shook her head and continued climbing.

Pinkamena seemed to realize that Fluttershy hadn't been crushed and began searching for her along her leg. As her face pulled level with Fluttershy a grin stretched across the darkness, noticeable only because of Fluttershy's blood dripping from the fangs. "Hello little one." Pinkamena's breath was incredibly cold, ice crystals formed in the air around her and Fluttershy could smell the rotten flesh still stuck to the crimson stained teeth.

Fluttershy kicked off, her legs folding as pressure was put on them. She managed to go far enough to grab the smoking holes she knew to be Pinkamena's nostrils. She began biting at the sensitive skin. Cold black slime flowed freely out as she dug her teeth in. It tasted like soot and stuck to Fluttershy in huge globs, but she continued biting.

An enormous hoof slammed into Fluttershy driving her forward. An earsplitting crack said that Pinkamena had succeeded in breaking her own nose. Fluttershy noted this with a small nod of satisfaction as she fell to the ground.

Pinkamena reeled in pain, her enormous stumbling gait threatened to crush pinkie and Fluttershy. Fluttershy hit the ground, even more snapping sounds came from within her shattered form. She felt several points on her chest and looked down to see small white nubs sticking up. She knew she didn't have long until she died from either blood-loss or shock. She turned and saw Pinkie advancing on her, anger glared in her eyes. "How dare you do that to Pinkamena! What did she ever do to you Flutterbitch?"

Fluttershy looked shocked at the name. She'd never heard Pinkie use harsh language before. 'Of course,' she thought, something inside her laughing at the thought, 'I never saw her kill anypony before. Or turn into some freakish monster.' Pinkamena continued stumbling around, the black slime pouring from her nose in a waterfall. She managed to stagger to her hooves, the bone splinters in her leg groaned ominously; several gave way, dropping Fluttershy several inches as they stuck out of her blood-stained skin.

Pinkie ran at Fluttershy, her only thoughts bent on avenging Pinkamena's pain. She pulled her hoof back, ready to slam it into Fluttershy's windpipe, killing her slowly and painfully. Fluttershy gave a tiny grin, almost unnoticeable in the pain filling her features. She somehow jumped in the air. Fluttershy spun in the air, her hooves going above her head as she flew forwards toward Pinkie. Her rear legs swung downward, the bones sticking out creating tiny daggers.

Pinkie managed to get a hoof up in time. Fluttershy collided with her, breaking Pinkie's leg and embedding several large bone splinters deep in her side and leg. Pinkie pulled away and Fluttershy was dragged along. Her screams of pain seemed to return focus to both Pinkie and Pinkamena.

Pinkamena stopped and placed both front hooves on her nose. She concentrated and a flare of light revealed the broken cartilage knitting itself back together. After a few seconds, Pinkamena drew in a huge breath and walked calmly to the small ponies nearby. She saw that Fluttershy had managed to attach herself to her small counterpart using bone fragments. "Such a shame to have to kill you," Pinkamena said, moving in on the two grappling ponies. She stuck out her tongue and struck Fluttershy with it.

Fluttershy was trying to gain an advantage over Pinkie when something huge and stinking slapped her head. She flew off of Pinkie and came to landing a small distance away. Several new gashes had been added to her sides by the coarse, sandpaper like thing that hit her. She looked and saw Pinkie struggling to stand up. Fluttershy's bone fragments were lodged in various places around her legs and one leg hung almost doubled as Pinkie stared at it in disbelief.

"Shall I finish her now?" Pinkamena looked at her counterpart scathingly. "I wish to taste her flesh again."

Pinkie wiped a smear of blood out of her eyes; the gash that had caused it was already a fading pink scar. "Please, be my guest." Pinkie breathed heavily. No one had taxed her strength like this since she had sworn herself to Nightmare Moon. "Make it special though, she deserves it."

"Ah, my special trick?" Pinkamena lowered her eye to be level with the pink mare. "The one we practiced so long."

"Of course, she'll enjoy its… effects before she goes."

Applejack, the farming pony

She proved you to be no phony.

Your evil unmasked to her alone

Your good side too, to her was shown.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fluttershy kept struggling, trying her best to regain her hooves. She knew that even if she managed to get up there was no way for her to escape. Her legs were shattered and missing much of the bones. Her wings had been mangled; several pieces still clung to Pinkamena's mouth. She could see the safety of the forest mere hooves away. The animals there could hold off the demonic duo long enough for Fluttershy to get help. But she knew they wouldn't come out in the open to help. Even the dragons in the Great Dragon Migration had swerved to avoid coming above this place, much to everypony's confusion. She could see Pinkamena walking towards her; taking her time as she approached the shattered pony.

"I'm going to show you a little trick," Pinkamena said, her face split once more by a red slash of a grin. Her voice had taken on the strange quality it had before Fluttershy came along, sounding both like Pinkie and Pinkamena. The two pitches combining in an uneasy harmony. "It's very special. I can use it to hurt and kill. Wanna see?" Pinkamena's eyes suddenly flared bright red and she flew into the air. Huge batwings burst from her side as she rushed upwards. She came to a stop in front of the moon, her silhouette blotting out much of the light; an even more sinister replacement for Luna's old image that had vanished when she returned to Equestria.

Pinkamena began to glow, crimson light radiating from her at every point. A huge beam shot down and struck the forest, instantly creating an inferno. Several more beams lit up the area, each creating its own flaming stretch of forest. Fluttershy could hear the howls of the animals as they were cooked alive. Many began running out of the trees, their pelts aflame, already blackening and falling off. Nothing but pain and fear showed in their eyes.

The stampede of fleeing animals built as they ran for the one place not on fire: the clearing where Fluttershy now lay. Many stepped on her in their haste to escape. Fallen younglings and elders were abandoned in the mad flight for safety. Shafts of red light continued to rain down, obliterating the forest Fluttershy had loved. Eventually the animals were either running about the clearing in fear or had already perished in the flames.

Another beam, this one shaped like a crescent, burned the clearing. As it struck Pinkie, her body went limp and she floated in the air until she rose up to the same level as Pinkamena. The beams were now shot through with pink light; electricity crackling along their lengths as they struck the charred forest. Fluttershy could vaguely hear the shouts of ponies coming from Ponyville as the rushed to stop the blaze from spreading. She could hear them break and flee as the pegasi moving rainclouds were struck by the bolts of heat and lightning.

A cackling howl descended from the creatures blocking the moon. The animals in the clearing began to morph, their bodies twisting and combining in ways never meant to be seen by mortal eyes. Several rabbits exploded, only to melt and reform into the paw of a monster being formed from the harvested beings. Limbs rushed in, pulled by an unknown force. Soon, a hulking chimera stood before Fluttershy. She could still see the faces of every animal that had gone into it, they were all still aware; all locked deep within the prisons of their flesh, bound in pain until Pinkamena released them.

The hideous creature advanced on Fluttershy. She could see that it recognized her for who she was. It fell apart, the broken corpses surrounded her. They sank into the ground and a spiral of black spires shot up; slowly at first, but picking up speed as the spiral rushed in towards Fluttershy. She felt the ground crack beneath her and she sunk slightly. She knew it was the end. Her last thoughts were spent in hatred of Pinkie who had come down to her to watch as the black stone ripped her apart.

Pinkie smiled at her friend. "Bye Fluttershy, miss you lots. Tell everypony I said hi." She giggled and Fluttershy looked at her. Her eyes were clenched in pain, hoof marks and punctures covered more of her body than her actual skin did. She glared at Pinkie, her eyes full of loathing.

"Pinkie Pie," Fluttershy said as her eyes began to glaze over, the black spire slowly rising out of the ground to impale her.

"Yes?" the spire slowed, to allow them time to talk.

"I –ahh!- I hope you burn." Fluttershy gasped for breath, she was now wrapped around a three hoof thick chunk of jagged stone. "I hate you, you filthy bi-" her head fell, striking the stone with a crack. Her body was no longer able to support it as she was ripped apart by the expanding stone.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fluttershy, the timid creature,

Shyness, her prominent feature.

You killed her too with no remorse,

The stone that slit her throat was coarse.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Don't you just hate it when they don't' finish talking?" Pinkamena asked as she landed next to Pinkie, her wings reforming with her body as she settled.

"Yeah," Pinkie felt a quick wave of sadness as her friend's body fell off the stone in pieces. The spires all began to retract quickly, broken corpses reappearing in their stead. "Oh well," Pinkie said, yawning, "guess we'd… better clean this place up before anypony finds us."

"We have time. For now, rest is more important. We expended too much energy on that mare."

"I know wasn't it fun?" Pinkie began hopping towards the now blackened tunnel as she giggled. Too bad nopony else could make it out here.

"I doubt there would be enough ground left to fight on if they did," Pinkamena was satisfied, though she and her partner had both been injured many times, it was the most excitement they'd had in a long time. Never before had anypony taxed them so much. 'We really did do well to choose these mares,' Pinkamena thought as they walked through the true Sugarcube Corner to their bedroom.
