The ten friends gathered at Applejack's barn to discuss the recent events.

"What do you think's going on?" asked Twilight.

"I think it's somepony else." said Fern. "There's no way she can be back."

"Is that so?" Rainbow Dash. "She didn't seem to have a problem coming back before. Who's to say she didn't do it again?"

"Rainbow's right, ya'll." said Applejack. "We've all seen what that mare can do. We almost lost some of our friends because of her."

"So, what do you propose we do?" asked Trixie. "If Pinkamena really is back from the dead, how do you plan on finding her?"

"She seems to be targeting Apple Bloom... or ponies close to her." said Twilight. "We must keep on our guard so we can make it through this."

"Uh... Applejack?" asked May.

"Yeah, May?"

"I need to use the little filly's room." May whispered.

"Right over there." said AJ, pointing at a nearby hallway.

May quickly got up and made her way to the hall.

"May?" asked Twilight.

"Yeah?" May asked, turning around and squirming.

"Be careful."

"Uh huh." May said quickly, taking off down the hall.

"You really think Pinkamena could sneak in here without us knowing?" asked Trixie.

"I don't know." answered Twilight. "But we've all seen the things she can do. I wouldn't be surprised if--"

"AAAAAHHHHHH!" screamed May's terrified voice.

The friends quickly jumped up and ran to the bathroom.

"May?" asked Dawn frantically.

"Don't hurt me!" cried May. "Please."

"Is that--" Macy began to ask.

She was cut off by Pinkamena's laugh.

"Oh, May." she said. "I really wish I didn't have to... but liars must be taught a lesson."

"No, STOP!" pleaded May. "I'm SORRY!"

"Too late for apologies!" screamed Pinkamena.

"Quick, girls!" screamed Twilight frantically. "Knock the door down!"

"Pinkie..." said May's voice. "I lo--"

"Don't say it!" Pinkamena yelled. "I'm sick of your lies!"

May let out a scream of pain.

"HURRY!" screamed Dawn.

The friends began to bang harder.

"Pinkie, don't." said May, crying.

"Too late." she said with a dark tone.

May let out a long scream that slowly built up.

"That's it, girls." said Twilight. "Step back."

She charged up magic in her horn. It sent off a loud whining noise as the light grew brighter. She then fired it, blasting the door off its hinges. Twilight and Dawn ran in while the others stood at the door. May was sitting on the floor with a blindfold on. Her left forearm had a stab mark and her right back leg had a large cut. The bathroom window was open. Dawn knelt down with her friend as Twilight approached the window and looked out.

"May?" asked Dawn frantically.

"Dawn?" asked May. "Is that you?"

Dawn gripped the blindfold with her teeth and pulled it off.

"What happened?" she asked.

"Not entirely sure." said May. "I felt a knock on the back of the head which blurred my vision. Then somepony put a blindfold around my eyes. I wasn't sure who it was until I heard that laugh." Tears began pouring down her face. "Why is she doing this?" May asked. "I just want her stop... I just wanna be with her."

Twilight quickly looked over at her shoulder at May before returning her gaze to the window.

"See anythin', Twi?" asked Applejack.

"There's a trail of bloody hoofprints on the grass outside, but it stops when it hits the road."

She left the window and joined Dawn.

"How are you?" she asked, kneeling down.

"Been better." May answered.

Twilight placed a hoof on her shoulder. "Let's get you to a doctor."
