All Alone

I watched the fan blades spin around while I threw a ball at the wall, it rolling back, and then I throw it back.

I caught the ball and looked at the clock, it was 4:30. I still had a couple hours to go.

I continued in my cycle of throwing the ball and waited for the clock to change to 6:00 A.M.

This was my job now. I looked to the left and out the door, seeing the empty Pinkie Pie exoskeleton that was always right outside the door. I watched the animatronic, thinking it would move at any second and try to attack me, but it didn’t. It was just standing there, staring off into nothing as if it were in deep thought.

I felt the ball hit my side and it began rolling away from my grasp.

“Oh... Great.” I said.

I turned my head to the right and turned on the camera tablet, flipping through each camera. I didn’t see much. All I saw in the semi darkness was the animatronic heads hanging on the wall with lights glowing from their eye holes and mouths, illuminating the darkness somewhat.

I kind of felt myself getting sad seeing the animatronics in this condition, remembering there are the spirits of foals in the suits. But I quickly shook the feeling. They weren’t foals anymore.

But I still felt a small inkling of the feeling stay with me, no matter how much I tried to convince myself that they were monsters and didn’t deserve pity. But... They were still foals.

I turned off the camera tablet and looked left, looking to the reboot tablet. Everything was okay, nothing was broken and needed rebooting.

I instantly got out of my chair as soon as I heard the bell ringing, showing that it was time for me to get home.

“Thank Faust.” I muttered under my breath.

I walked outside and made an immediate turn left to the back door.

I opened the door and took a deep breath of the fresh air, which was a major improvement from the stinky air in the building.

I walked away from the building, but looked back to it and read the sign.

‘Pinkie’s Horror Attraction’. It read.

I turned back around and continued my journey home to Fluttershy. Maybe she made spaghetti and saved me some leftovers tonight. I could really use some.

This was my job now. Every night I would go to Pinkie’s Horror Attraction, which opens in a week, and I watch the place to make sure nopony breaks in. It would have been fine, mainly because I finally found the animatronics I had spent five years looking for.

But they couldn’t move. They were torn apart and empty exoskeletons now. Rainbow Dash’s head was now just a little light to create scares at the end of a hallway, Rarity’s head was just on the floor that glowed to illuminate the Puppet’s disembodied head, Pinkie Pie was now just an empty exoskeleton that just hung out by my door, and I had no idea where Applejack, or any of the Toy animatronics where. They probably scrapped the Toy ones. They scrapped Balloon Spike and kept his voice box for ambience in the attraction for when it opens.

I should feel happy about this. I could finally do my job without having to defend myself from the animatronics, but I just felt sad. They were all just foals. They didn’t deserve this, any of this.

I walked up the stairs to get home where Fluttershy was waiting. I opened the door and heard Fluttershy call out.

“Welcome home Jet,” she said, “How was work?”

“It was fine," I said, “The same as usual though, nothing happening.”

“Well I’m glad that you’re enjoying your new job,” she said, walking up to me and planting a kiss on my cheek, “I have some leftovers in the fridge for you.”

I smiled and walked to the kitchen, opening to door to see a little bowl of spaghetti sitting on the top shelf.

I hadn’t told Fluttershy about my new job, of course not. If I told her about my job at PINKIE’S Horror Attraction, then she would have a fit and probably wouldn’t even allow me to leave the house. I just told her I was just a janitor at the mall and, thankfully, she believed me.

I took the bowl out of the fridge and closed the door, walking to the microwave to heat it up.

When it was done heating up I put took the bowl, grabbed a fork, and got comfortable on the couch while twirling the fork in the spaghetti.

I watched Jet sit down and twirl his fork into his spaghetti.

When he finished his dinner I took the bowl and put it in the sink, washing it.

I was washing the bowl when I noticed I was smiling. I then noticed I was smiling because I was remembering five years ago. Back when Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Applejack would ‘rock out their band’ as the fillies would say. I remember back when Pinkie Pie helped some poor innocent filly when he was lost... But then the Bite happened.

I often think about Pinkie Pie and her friends. Where were they? But a bigger question I had was how the Puppet was able to get to the Ponyville mall and kill that pony.

Nopony stole it, as far as I knew. Could it have moved there somehow? No... Somepony must have moved it. But who would do such a thing?

I turned my head to Jet as he sat on the couch watching the Equestrian Daily News Channel. I quickly turned my head back to the sink.

No! Jet couldn’t have done it! He’s not the type of pony to do that! I thought. I then began remembering back in the second location for Pinkie’s Party Palace, how Jet’s sanity seemed to threaten to snap at any moment. Could he have done it?

I turned my head again to him to see him sitting back on the couch. I turned to the TV and saw he had put in our copy of ‘Ghost Pony Rider’. He seemed to be obsessed with that movie these days.

“Um... Jet?” I said.

“Yeah?” He answered, keeping his attention on the TV but raising an ear. “What’s up?”

“Why do you always watch that movie?” I asked. “It’s pretty much the only movie you watch these days.”

“.... I just like it,” he responded, “I feel like I can relate.”

“.... Jet?” I said.

“Yeah?” He said.

“How do you think the Puppet got to the mall that day? When that pony died?” I asked.

Jet didn’t answer. He just continued staring at the TV with a blank expression.

“Jet.” I said.

He continued to ignore me.

“Jet!” I said.

He looked down with his eyes then looked at me. “I don’t know... Somepony could have put it there.”

“But what pony would do that?” I asked.

“I don’t know... But somepony must have done it.” He said.

“Well how do you think that stallion died?” I asked. “The Puppet couldn’t have done it.”

Jet looked down. “I don’t know Flutters... I don’t know.”

He got off the couch and took the movie out of the VHS player.

“I’m gonna watch this in our room.” He said quietly, walking down the hallway.

I continued washing the dishes, trying to find some way to disprove my suspicions. But no matter what I tried I just couldn’t.

I closed the fridge, a small bowl with a salad in my magical grasp. I walked over to the couch and sat down next to my darling wife who had fallen asleep.

I picked up the remote with my magic and levitated it to me, pushing the button to turn the TV on as it landed next to me.

I levitated a fork to me and stabbed it into the salad, lifting the fork to my mouth. But I stopped as soon as I saw what was on the TV.

“Come be part of the new horror icon of the century!” I heard a voice say as the commercial showed a building that, while it’s structure looked unfamiliar, had a sign on top of it that I could read clearly.

“Pinkie’s Horror Attraction!” The voice said. “A fun new attraction based off the horrors of the Pinkie’s Party Palace, back when a child was murdered there mercilessly.”

I began to remember my, thankfully short, time working at the Pinkie’s Party Palace. I remember when Balloon Spike cornered me along with Mangled Rainbow.

I dropped the fork, hearing the dull thud it made as it hit the floor below the couch.

The commercial went on to go inside the building, showing a Rainbow Dash head hanging from a wall, only one of her eyes shining with a light, illuminating the area around her. It then moved on to show a Rarity head on the floor, both her eyes and mouth shining light, illuminating the head of the Puppet on the wall in front of her. It then showed the feet of something that resembled a pony, but was unmoving.

The camera slowly panned up and confirmed to me that it was a pony. But it was metallic and creepy. It panned up to the face and showed an obviously hollow Pinkie Pie animatronic suit.

I stared at the Pinkie Pie suit, it looking straight at the camera. I know I shouldn’t think this because it’s hollow, but it looked as if it were staring straight at me. I felt my breathing becoming frantic and my heart beating faster at the sight of the Pinkie Pie animatronic.

I looked out the window to the sun, which was now rising, hoping that wherever they were Fluttershy was stopping Jet from watching this commercial.

“This new horror attraction is now the top interest of Ponyville as ponies here all can’t wait until the new attraction opens up in a week.” The TV announcer said.

I began spazzing again....

I didn’t mean to do it.... It just happens.... Probably due to some faulty wiring or something....

But.... “I’m here.... I’m still here old friend....” I thought.

“I never left….”

“And I know you’ll be back.... You always do....”

I began twitching my yellow... tentacle things on my hooves. I could feel my bunny ears twitching as well...

I couldn’t take it anymore... Today is the day I’ll escape…

I put my hoof things with tentacles on the top of the head, trying to lift it off my head.... I quickly put it down when I started howling in pain, only for it to come out as some garbled mess due to the broken voice box…

I dropped my arms, submitting to the pain…

“I’ll get you back for doing this to me old friend... Soon...“ I said, but the broken voice box made it come out as a garbled mess.

My one broken ear twitched as soon as I heard something rustling around outside the room I was in. I heard voices, somepony was coming. I couldn’t close my eyes as the door was opened and a bright light was shone in my face, threatening to blind me.

“Guys,” I heard somepony say, “We found one! A REAL one! Oh ho man! It’s so creepy!”

They walked towards me and I watched as they inspected me. I felt myself unable to move because I was still going through the pain from the gears. I didn’t know who they were, or what they wanted to do to me, but I couldn’t do anything to stop it.

“I’ll get you some time, old friend...” I thought. “And you’ll regret putting me in this suit...

Not Alone Anymore (Night 1)

I flipped through the cameras, looking down the hallway that had the Rainbow Dash animatronic head flashing down the hallway.

I reached my hoof forward and grabbed another mint from the bowl that I had brought from home and threw one into my mouth and began to immediately chew it. I felt my mind begin to go through my memories, clearly trying to distract me from this boring job by making me think of something else.

I groaned loudly as I heard the phone begin to ring, knowing I’d have to listen to that bucking kid talk for what would feel like hours. I leaned forward and pushed the button and put it on speaker, sitting back in my chair comfortably and looking through the cameras.

“Hey? Hey, you there?” I heard the stallion ask.

“I’m here,” I thought, “I’ll always be here....”

“Well, I just needed to say thanks for coming back for another night. I know it can get pretty boring there sometimes but I’ve got to say that things might get a little more interesting tomorrow night.” He said, chuckling a bit at the end.

I grew a confused look on my face and turned off the camera tablet, moving it away from my vision and focused on the phone.

“Yeah, you might have noticed that Rainbow Dash head in one of the hallways, that’s because we found one at the second location Pinkie’s Party Palace was at. It just has to be the real thing! It can’t be just some other crappy cosplay. And we’re following a new lead about a secret the older location might have. Oh! Gotta go. I promise things will get a lot more interesting tomorrow. Oh, and we added something to your camera tablet’s controls. Just click that button that says ‘audio’ on the left. Alright, gotta go. See ya tomorrow.” The phone clicked, indicating the call ended.

I was curious, so I turned the camera tablet back on and looked to the left. Sure enough there was a button that said ‘audio’. I pushed it and heard a familiar laughter coming from right outside the door. I know it was from some audio box or something in the microphone, but I heard a very familiar ‘Hello’. It was Balloon Spike’s ‘Hello’.

I began remembering my first time running into Balloon Spike, I didn’t know what to do with him, I didn’t have a plan, so I was completely unprepared for what he would do. I was winding up the music box when I put the tablet down and saw Balloon Spike standing at the door, laughing at me. I didn’t know what to do so I just stared him down, hoping he’d just back up after that. But then I heard mechanical whirring coming from down the hall and knew that Rainbow Dash was preparing to fly right towards me.

I jumped when I heard the bell ring, indicating it was 6:00. I didn’t get up from my chair, I just stayed there and stared straight ahead. I seemed to still be able to hear Balloon Spike’s voice, even though it was clearly not playing.

I finally got myself to get out of my chair and leave the building, my whole body shuddering during my walk out. I reached home and stood at the door, staring straight ahead. “How long can I live this lie? I thought.

I knew that it was only a matter of time before Fluttershy either forced me to tell her, or just packed her bags and straight up left.

I sighed and opened the door, walking inside and getting greeted by Fluttershy.

I stood still as the ponies carried me out of the room I had been locked in. They carried me out and I finally got a glimpse of what the building I was in looked like. This place was obviously abandoned because there was trash everywhere, the walls were devoid of the drawings that I, for some reason, remember being there. And the paint on the walls were cracking. They took me out into the outside world and put me in the back of their truck, closing the door and trapping me again in darkness.

I heard the truck start to move and it felt like they decided to hit every speed bump in town because I kept jumping around, threatening to crash into the wall.

Eventually the truck stopped and they took me out. I only got a glimpse of the sign on the building.

‘Pinkie’s Horror Attraction’ it read.

They took me inside and placed me down near the front door, making sure to put me down carefully as to not break anything on me that was already about to fall off anyway.

I watched them leave and I was left alone, staring straight ahead at the hallway that was decorated with creepy drawings from the earlier locations I guess. The walls were covered with the drawings, the floors were littered with paper, and the paint was put on the walls to imitate cracking and old paint.

“Is this my new life,” I thought, “To stay here, standing here, and just be a part of this ‘attraction’?”

.... No....

I wouldn’t accept this as my new life. I was going to move. I strained as much as I could, fighting to find some way to move my body outside of the random twitches and moments of spazzing I often had.

I fought and fought until....

CRACK

I smiled, knowing I had succeeded. I clenched my left tentacle hoof into a ball, followed by my right one.

“I control my own life... And this is the life I chose to live.”

A New Friend (Night 2)

I stayed up almost all night, eventually letting sleep take me in the middle of Ghost Pony Rider.

I woke up and saw the time, it was 9:00 P.M..

I got off the couch and stretched myself, yawning. I cracked my neck and walked to the kitchen, grabbing a granola bar as a late breakfast. I opened the granola bar and bit into it, tasting the sweet chocolate chips. I looked around, making sure Fluttershy wasn’t near and reached into the cabinet and took another granola bar, hiding it in my bag and strapped it to my side.

I walked my way back to work, finishing the first granola bar and throwing the wrapper away at the nearest trash can I could find.

I went my usual route to work, and I went inside the usual way through the back. I sat down on my chair and put my bag down on the floor next to me, jumping slightly as I heard the phone suddenly ring.

“Hey! Okay, I don’t have long but just know that things are getting awesome on our end. First, we’ve added these cool little doors to the vents so that they can stop ponies from breaking into the place during night that you’ll keep an eye on when this place opens, and... Guess what? We’ve been chasing that lead I told you about, and dude.... We found one.” The stallion said.

I stopped where I was and slowly turned my head towards the phone.

“A real one.” He proceeded to say.

I felt my heart begin to beat rapidly. A real one? What? But they already have the other animatronics! They have Pinkie, Rarity, the Puppet, Balloon Spike’s voice box, the only one I can think is missing would be.... The Mangled Rainbow and Applejack....

“Oh no...” I thought.

“Hey! I gotta run, but don’t worry. You’ll see the one we found near the door. Oh hey! And we might have overdone it with the building when we tried to make it, like, super authentic. Because the vents, camera systems, and audio systems do actually need to be rebooted. So, make sure to check on that because if you don’t keep your vents up and ready to go then you’re going to start seeing some crrrraaaaaazzzzzy stuff man! And make sure to not use too much stuff at once, because the grid or something might, like, totally catch on fire... So, uh, yeah. Watch out for that. Okay, see you later man!” The phone clicked, indicating the end of the call.

What did he mean? A real one? Did they actually find Applejack? Or the Mangled Rainbow? I tried not to freak out, they could have just found some really good cosplay outfit or something, no need to freak.

I turned on the camera tablet and decided to look at the new animatronic or whatever to see what it looked like.

I flipped to the front door and stared at the tablet, my eyes growing wide and my heart sinking down to the deepest pit of my stomach as my hooves started shaking violently.

I saw what seemed to be an animatronic based off a rabbit standing in front of the camera, it’s body clearly decayed and rotting, it’s mouth was cut into an endless smile that literally stretched from ear to ear. It’s eyes stared straight at me, glowing in the somewhat dark room it was in.

I stared at the thing, feeling my heart beating like I had just run a mile. I tried to take deep breaths, trying to calm myself down and tell myself that it wasn’t alive. I would have succeeded, if it’s eyes didn’t look straight towards the camera when I checked on it again.

I turned off the tablet and began hyperventilating, I had no doors, I had no mask, I don’t even have any music box to lure it away. And since there’s an empty Pinkie Pie suit right next to my door I can say that I am royally bucked.

No. I can do this. I did have a music box, maybe this thing would be like the Puppet and would be attracted to the noise.

I turned on the camera and saw him gone, followed by some banging in the vents traveling through the building. I turned on the vent cameras and saw the thing going through the vent that went straight to my office, stopping as soon as I turned on the camera and staring straight towards the camera at me. I saw a button next to the vent camera and pushed it, hearing some kind of metal door shut.

The screen went to static and I heard more banging, indicating the thing was getting back out. I switched to the camera at the door and played the audio, hearing Balloon Spike’s little ‘hello’ resonating through the halls.

I switched to the camera where Rainbow Dash’s head was to make sure she didn’t decide to hop over to me or something, but something was blocking my way. I was about to tap the button again, hoping that would fix it, when the camera tablet was torn from my hooves and I saw Balloon Spike right in front of me. He had a burned look and didn’t have his little Balloons he normally had.

He proceeded to jump at me, producing the most Faust-awful scream I’ve ever heard and causing my vision to fade as I screamed my own scream of terror with him. I then heard an alarm sound, signifying that something needed rebooting.

I looked around, Balloon Spike was gone but the room was flashing red. I began struggling to catch my breath and held my chest. I looked left and raised the grid tablet and rebooted the ventilation, not wanting to have it shut off.

The vents finished rebooting and I turned back right, checking the camera and seeing the thing standing where the Puppet and Rarity are.

I switched to a camera further away from me and played the audio, a shiver traveling up my spine as I heard Balloon Spike’s laughter traveling through the hallways.

I put the tablet down and began to control my breathing, not really appreciating Balloon Spike’s little visit there.

I looked right to see if anything else needed to be rebooted, but saw Rarity and froze. She leaned towards me, producing the same scream Balloon Spike made, followed by my own scream.

I heard another alarm and the room started flashing red. I turned on the reboot tablet and rebooted the audio, lowering the tablet and stopping dead in my tracks. I looked out the window and saw what looked like a dark, shadow looking Pinkie Pie figure walking through the hallway towards my door.

She got to the end of the window and ducked under the wall out of my sight, only to reappear right in front of me from the floor. She screamed the same scream as the other two and I screamed along with her, vision fading.

I turned back and rebooted the vents, hearing banging noises. I turned the camera tablet on as soon as I finished rebooting the vents and shut the vent that was right outside the office as soon as I saw the yellow animatronic creature staring back to me.

I heard it crawling back through the vent and I played Balloon Spike’s laughter at the front door, where it was before. I heard a bell ringing, signifying it was time for me to leave, but I was already out of the building by the time I heard the first chime.

I ran my flank back home, crashing through the door, hearing Fluttershy yelp out in surprise in the living room, and turning around to slam the door shut.

“Jet?” I heard Fluttershy say.

“Nothing is wrong! Everything is okay!” I immediately said.

She walked to the hallway and looked towards me with a face of concern. “Jet? are you okay?”

“Of course!” I said, walking up the stairs.

“Then what was that for?” She asked.

“Uh.... I just thought I’d sprint back home today,” I said, rubbing the back of my head and stopping at the top of the stairs, “It’s a much healthier exercise than just walking home, ya know?”

I looked back down to her and she just looked back, keeping her concerned expression.

“So how was work?” She asked.

“I-It was fine....” I said, remembering that thing and how Rarity, Balloon Spike and Pinkie Pie had jumped from nowhere and given me a fright.

“Are you sure? You seem.... Weird.” She said.

“I’m fine Flutters!” I said, walking down the upstairs hallway and entering the room.

I laid down on the bed and stared at the ceiling, still going through what just happened tonight.

The face of the yellow creature was still fresh in my mind. I could still see it and make out every decaying part of it’s face, ears and body.

“It’s me old friend.... It’s me.” I made the suit do a little grin, which wasn’t very hard as the mouth of it was already stuck in a permanent smile anyways.

“And I know you’re awake. And now I’M taking over your little operation here.” I thought.

I stared at the face of that creepy Puppet thing and it looked back. Even though it couldn’t move, or make any noise, I knew that he was terrified. I knew Silver Screen was in there, watching me stare at him and was absolutely terrified of the mere sight of me.

“And that stallion who was just here? He’s the first victim of my rise.”

You Are All Mine Now

I picked up the head of the white unicorn animatronic from the floor, examining it and seeing it was empty.

I held onto it and walked around the building, finding some blue animatronic head hanging on the wall and shining like a lamp. I tore it off the wall with a few struggles and carried it with me. I put them both down at the door to the office the stallion was in.

I looked at the two heads and looked up to see an empty pink animatronic staring off into space.

“You all already have some kind of soul in each of you, don’t you?” I thought, picking up the white unicorn’s head.

I inspected it for a while and then switched to the blue one. “But none of you are like me or Silver, are you? You’re being forced to do what you’re doing, aren’t you? Who’s forcing you? Ah.... Silver is. He must be angry at somepony.” I thought, putting it down and looking towards the pink one.

“Well don’t worry. I’m in charge now, and I think you all could do with a little rebuilding.”

I moved away from the animatronic heads and looked around the building, searching for the rest of the parts for those animatronics. I need some help if I’m going to take this place and make it mine.

I walked past the Puppet head and stopped, turning my head to look back at it.

I guess I could use as much help as I could get. I grinned at my thought of having Silver fight alongside me, the stallion who murdered him and made him murder the foal.

Speaking of which... Where was that purple suit?

I wandered the building, looking up and down the walls and ceiling for any signs of the purple animatronic suit thing I had Silver put that foal’s body in. I found a room and opened it, the purple animatronic was in pieces all over the floor.

“Aw.... Poor thing.” I thought.

I stepped in the room and I could just feel the foal’s spirit just screaming for me to leave.

“You’re no use to me in this state.... So that’s why I’m going to have to fix you.” I thought, grinning as I picked up it’s head.

I had to take several trips back and forth to get the purple suit’s pieces back to where I had put the rest, but it didn’t take long.

I sat down and began to work on rebuilding them.

After a while I had almost had the white unicorn done when I realized that it wasn’t trying to move, even with it’s hooves still attached.

“None of you move that much, do you?” I thought.

I heard soft whispering and turned my head to the head of the purple one.

“Oh come on,” I thought, “Don’t tell me that you actually have morals!”

I leaned over and picked up the purple suit’s head, staring it straight in it’s empty eye sockets.

“Because none of you do. You’re all just creations of death. You can’t have morals. And that stallion is going to die. He’ll be the first one of the many ponies who will be victims to my rise.”

I threw the head back to where it was and it rolled around, facing towards me on it’s side. I heard more soft whispering but kept working on the white animatronic, humming to myself a bit to drown out the whispers.

Can't Breath (Night 3)

I stood outside the back door that led inside to my office, wondering if I should really go back inside there or not.

I eventually slapped myself and walked inside when I had finally convinced myself, remembering that they were my responsibility.

I shakingly sat down on my chair and saw the clock turn to midnight. I turned on the camera tablet and saw the yellow creature by the front door, looking straight at the camera.

I gulped and put down the tablet, Balloon Spike jumping at me as soon as I did, causing me to scream along with him.

When my vision came back I turned left to reboot the system, but Rarity popped out of nowhere and screamed at me, causing me to scream and turn left. But as soon as I turned left Pinkie Pie popped up and screamed at me, turning me left as I screamed. But the left side wasn’t safe either as Rainbow Dash was standing there, jumping towards me and screaming as soon as I turned left.

I covered my eyes with my hooves and started screaming. I opened my eyes and saw that everything was safe now. I turned left and rebooted all of the systems.

When that was done I turned it off and turned back right, stopping where I was as soon as I saw the yellow creature standing outside the window, staring straight at me.

I stared at him and he stared back, both of us stuck in a creepy staring contest. I didn’t know what to do, could I still lure him away? Could I do that?

I gulped and decided to give it a try. I turned right and quickly turned on the camera tablet and flipped to the camera right outside of that room he was in and played Balloon Spike’s laugh.

I gulped and turned it off, putting it away and closing my eyes.

I opened my eyes slowly and saw that the creature was gone. I looked to the door and sighed in relief as I saw it wasn’t there. But I didn’t to get too comfortable with this, it’ll move back here.

I turned back on the camera and played Balloon Spike’s laughter at a further hallway where an arcade cabinet was. I lowered the tablet and Balloon Spike jumped at me, both of us screaming.

“Enough of that! I’m tired of that now!” I screamed as I turned left and rebooting the vents.

I heard banging noises and turned on the camera tablet quickly, switching to the vent cameras and seeing the yellow creature crawling through the vents that led to my office, stopping to stare at me.

I shut the metal door and turned it off, hearing banging noises that I knew were coming from it crawling back out.

I looked through the cameras and found it staring at me from the front door.

“Good.... Stay there. FAR away from me.” I thought.

I put down the tablet and Balloon Spike jumped at me, causing me to scream again.

“WHAT DID I SAY EARLIER!?!?” I screamed as I turned left, only for Rarity to jump at me.

I screamed, groaning as my vision came back to me. I raised the grid tablet and rebooted all of the systems.

I turned back and Pinkie Pie jumped at me again, followed by Rarity as I turned left, then getting jumped at by Balloon Spike as I turned right, then getting hit by Rainbow Dash as I turned left.

I was breathing frantically, sweating like crazy, and was utterly terrified by now. I looked right and out the window, seeing the yellow bunny creature staring at me. I quickly raised the camera tablet and lured him to the other room with Balloon Spike’s laughter.

“I’m getting really tired of this now!” I said, running my hoof through my mane.

I found it was getting harder for me to breath, facehoofing as I remembered I forgot to reboot the ventilation system.

I turned left and Rainbow Dash jumped at me, my vision fading and taking longer to come back to me. I looked around, searching for light as my vision slowly came back to me, only for Rarity to jump towards me.

“Buck,” I cried out, turning on the grid tablet as my vision finally came back to me, “I did not miss this job.” Grumbling that last part I turned the grid tablet off and turned to the window, freezing where I was as I saw the yellow creature standing at the door, staring directly at me.

I quickly turned on the tablet and drew him to the room next to the one he was in with Balloon Spike’s laughter. I waited a while for the audio to finish with its own rebooting and drew the yellow creature further.

I turned off the tablet and set it down, leaning back on my chair and running my hoof through my mane. I could still feel my heart beating fast, my breathing was in more control but still frantic, and I could feel my hooves shaking. I was sweating and I was terrified.

I grabbed the tablet and prepared to turn it on, hoping to lure the thing even further, only to put it back down and run out the door as I heard the bell ringing.

I ran out of the building and began running back home, only to slow myself to a stop as something began to appear in my mind. It was a realization.

“If that thing is still alive when this place opens.... Then who’s going to stop it during the day? Who’ll stop it from hurting somepony?” I thought as I turned my head back to the direction where the horror attraction was.

“How could I stop it?” I said aloud to myself.

I got an idea, jumping up and my eyes opening up a bit at the thought.

I began hauling flank to get to Shining Armor’s house, also trying to find some way on how I’d convince him to go along with my idea I had.

Monsters Are All I See, And A Monster Is What I Am

I watched the yellow monster get to work on the Rarity animatronic, trying to put her back together.

He seemed to be also breaking her pieces apart and bending them, making them look some crazy, demonic version of the pieces former self.

I decided to take my time and look around.

The building definitely felt authentic. The place was terrible. I looked back to the monster and thought of how well his decayed look matched with this place.

I looked back to the yellow creature and he looked back at me, making his permanent grin grow even wider, turning into a slasher smile. He waved at me and turned back to the animatronic to continue his work.

I saw him finally get the animatronic put back together and he took off one of it’s legs, probably not wanting the Rarity animatronic to run off or something.

He set it aside via throwing it, and put the Pinkie Pie animatronic take it’s place. He began humming to himself and I turned to the purple animatronic head, seeing it’s eyes lit up.

“Jet.... The monster.... I can save Jet.... but the monster is mine.... That monster and I have a score to settle....”

Old Business Partners Reunite

I was quickly knocking on the door, looking back to see if the yellow animatronic creature thing had decide to leave the building and follow me here.

I looked back to see the door opening, me ending up knocking on Shining’s head as he gave me an unamused look. I stopped knocking and mumbled an apology.

“Jet,” he said, “What are you doing here?”

“Okay... Remember how I said I was going to hunt down the animatronics six years ago?” I said.

He nodded.

“Well... I found them. And they have a new friend.” I said, rubbing the back of my head.

“A new friend? What does that mean?” He asked.

“Well, it’s yellow, It’s a rabbit, it’s torn up, decayed, permanent grin on it’s face, and just a bucking nightmare to look at.” I said.

“Wait, you actually found them?!” Shining said.

“Yeah, but they’re all torn up and stuff. Rainbow Dash is just a lamp, Rarity is a lamp too, Pinkie Pie is just a little decoration outside my door, and I don’t know where the buck Applejack is.” I said.

“But since that’s the case let it go! The yellow animatronic isn’t one that you made if it’s possessed! So just move on now!” Shining said.

“But.... I can’t.... It’s still an animatronic and I still need to protect people.” I said.

“But it’s not your-”

“I plan on destroying it.” I said, interrupting him.

“What? How?” Shining said, a bit of shock in his voice.

“I plan on destroying the building.” I said.

“The building!?” he said, “How do you plan on doing that!?”

“The place is new, but the tech in it is old. They used tech from the first location for Pinkie’s Party Palace. All we have to do is just overuse it, or overheat a furnace, or something. Just burn the place down.” I said, noting Shinings shocked expression. He was looking at me as if I’d gone mad or something.

He looked back inside his house and closed the door. “Now, I don’t know what kind of stuff you’re on man but I just want you to know that this is crazy.”

“I’m not on anything!” I said.

“Are you sure? Because blowing up a Faust damn building isn’t really going to go by very well with the police.” He said.

“I know, I know. But that just seems like really the only thing I can do by now. It’s the only thing that I can do that’ll stop the animatronics forever.”

Shining looked down for a while, as if in deep thought.

“Okay,” he said, raising his head, “I’ll help you. How are we going to do this?”

Breakdown (Night 4)

I stepped inside the building, sitting calmly in my chair as I entered my office. I took a couple deep breaths to try and keep my nerves for tonight so I don’t end up freaking out and getting paranoid.

I would need to check the vent system better tonight. I don’t think I can handle having to deal with the hallucinations of the animatronics while also dealing with the yellow guy.

I turned on the camera tablet and knew instantly that this was going to be a long night.

I was on a camera for the room with the arcade cabinets and I saw the Mangled Rainbow hanging there.

I turned the cameras off and I was forced to cover my ears with my hooves as I heard a near deafening screech that just seemed to go on forever, with no sign of it ending soon.

I looked to the window and saw the Mangled Rainbow peeking it’s little head up from under the window.

I closed my eyes and laid on the chair in a ball, trying to get the Faust-awful noise to just stop. But no matter how tightly I held my ears the noise just wouldn’t stop.

Finally, after what felt like a lifetime of ear bleedingly loud screeching, the noise finally stopped and I could uncover my ears.

I sat back up on the chair and turned the tablet back on, seeing Balloon Spike in front of me and quickly flipping through the camera out of shock. I braced myself for Balloon Spike to jump at me, but he never did.

I relaxed a little and made a mental note to remember that trick when I see Balloon Spike again.

I wiped my brow and turned off the tablet, seeing the yellow creature standing at the window.

It must have been attracted by the Mangled Rainbow’s seemingly endless screeching.

I hurriedly turned on the camera and played Balloon Spike’s laughter outside the door to the other room with the arcade machines, which I quickly left as I saw Rarity’s face on the screen but demonic looking.

I flipped to another camera to lure the creature away but Balloon Spike was there. I tried to flip to a different screen but Balloon Spike was too quick, pulling the tablet down and jumping at me, both of us screaming in synch. I turned left and Rarity jumped towards me, causing me to turn right right into Pinkie Pie’s trap. I turned left and Rainbow Dash jumped at me, giving me my sixth heart attack tonight.

I put my hooves on my ears as I kept hearing their horrible screaming replaying in my head as I rocked myself in my chair.

“They’re just hallucinations....” I kept repeating in my mind. “They’re just hallucinations.... They’re just hallucinations.... They’re just hallucinations....”

I shot my head up as soon as I heard the bell ringing and I jumped out of my chair, running out of the room and hitting the wall outside my office as I ran out the door to get away from this accursed building.

I ran home, slamming into the door as I failed to open it on time. I got up and shook my head, turning the knob on the door and running inside, slamming the door and quickly flying upstairs.

“Jet?” I heard Fluttershy say as I flew upstairs.

I flew into the bathroom upstairs and closed the door, laying down in the tub in a fetal position.

I covered my ears with my hooves and shut my eyes tight, repeating to myself that they were just hallucinations and they weren’t real.

“They’re just hallucinations.... They’re just hallucinations....They’re just hallucinations.... They’re just hallucinations....” I kept repeating in my head.

“Jet?” I heard Fluttershy say at the door.

“I’m fine Flutters!” I immediately shouted to her.

I heard the door open and peeked over the tub to see Fluttershy walk in.

“Jet, what’s wrong?” She asked.

“I said nothing’s wrong....” I said, laying back down.

“Are you sure,” She asked, “You don’t seem-”

“DAMMIT I SAID I’M FINE!!!!” I screamed at her as I sat back up, interrupting her and causing her to jump back.

I stared at her as she stared back, her mouth hung open at my sudden outburst.

I laid back down in the tub and rubbed small circles on my temple, feeling a headache creeping up.

“Faust dammit... They’re just hallucinations... They’re just hallucinations... They’re just hallucinations....” I said to myself.

“Jet?” I heard Fluttershy say.

“What!?” I said sternly.

I could hear her voice getting progressively more shaken and I sat up and could see her eyes begin to water up.

“Please... Tell me what’s wrong....” She whispered, but still loud enough for me to hear.

I groaned and laid my head down on the side of the tub. “Nothing is wrong! Now go! Get out of here! Leave me alone!” I said, waving my hoof to wave her off.

“Please Jet! Tell me what’s wrong!” She said.

“No matter what I say... Or do... It’s never up to me... Or you, is it?” I whispered.

“What?” She asked.

“NO MATTER WHAT I SAY OR DO, IT’S NEVER UP TO ME OR YOU!! IS IT!?” I screamed, causing her to back up out of the bathroom.

“Jet....” She said as she backed out of the room.

“But what is that they spy? With their robotic eyes... They can see a little flesh inside this new guy....” I said, the yellow creature’s creepy glare and decaying body on my mind.

“What new guy?” Fluttershy said.

“No matter what they say or do... It’s never up to me or you... It’s up to him” I said.

“Who?” She asked.

“THE NEW ANIMATRONIC FAUST DAMMIT!!!” I screamed. “HE’S CONTROLLING THEM!!!!”

“Animatronic? Jet, what are you-Oh no....” Fluttershy said.

“A fucking Pinkie Pie themed horror attraction is the perfect place for him.... But what does he fucking want?” I said to myself, punching the wall.

“Jet!” I heard Fluttershy say.

“NOT NOW!” I screamed back.

“Jet!!!” She said, a lot louder and sterner than normal. She spoke it louder than I thought her voice could go and it shocked me. She still didn’t talk loud, but it was loud enough that if it came from her my attention would be altered.

“You went back....” She said, “To Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and all of them.... This is why I wanted us to move to your home in Manehattan! Because I knew that you just wouldn’t be able to resist looking for them! Janitor at the mall.... You lied to me! To me!!!”

“Fluttershy...” I began.

“I don’t want to hear it!” She said back, interrupting me. “I’m done hearing your lies Jet.... And you probably won’t tell me why you’re so obsessed with the animatronics either, right?”

I just stared at her, not answering, but from the way she looked down and nodded I knew she could read my answer in my eyes.

“That’s what I thought....” She said, turning around and walking to the door. “I’ll go get some boxes for you to pack up with.”

I was sitting with Cadance, watching the newest episode of Equestria’s Funniest Home Videos when I heard a knock at the door.

“I’ll get it sweetie.” I said, getting up.

I trotted to the door and opened it, seeing Jet standing there with a melancholy look on his face, boxes full of stuff to his left and right.

“Jet,” I said, “What’s wrong?”

“She figured it out....” He said, lowering his head even more.

“Oh... She knows of the animatronics?” I asked.

“No.... But she knows I’m working at a place with the animatronics...” He said.

“Hm... And... She kicked you out.” I said.

“Yeah...” He said, nodding softly.

“Well come on in. Cadance! Can you heat up some left overs for Jet!” I said, “Come on in, and sit down on the couch. Cadance will heat up some left overs for you and you and I can talk about what’s going on and this plan of yours that you still have to tell me.” I said, watching him walk in and picking up a box.

“Jet... Black…” I thought, looking at the employee card that the stallion had left behind.

I crushed the card as I made my tentacle hoof thing into a ball and dropped it, turning around to the nearly finished animatronics.

“You’re almost done... Even you too... Silver Screen...” I thought, the Puppet turning it’s head to me slowly.

“”Oh, I’m sorry. Puppet.” I thought, sitting back down and working on the Pinkie Pie animatronic. “Well guess what ‘Puppet’. I’M the Puppet Master.”

Why He Did It

I was sitting on the couch, flipping through the channels as I tried to hold back my tears.

I eventually lost the battle and lowered my head, feeling the tears fill up my eyes and slide down my cheeks and falling onto the couch.

“Why did he have to do it? Why couldn’t he just let it go?” I thought.

Jet was a happy stallion before we moved to that second location. What happened there that was so bad?

Well I’ll never know... He wouldn’t tell me and I don’t know where he is now.

I brushed a strand of my pink mane away from my face and wiped my eyes, sniffing loudly and using the other hoof to pick up a tissue. I blew my nose with it and tossed it down into the trash can next to me, picking up the empty tissue box and dropping it into a bag of empty tissue boxes.

I put my head down on my hoof and began to think about anything, anything at all that I could have done that would have caused him to become this way. But nothing came to mine. So it must have been from his job as the night guard.

But what could have happened that was so bad that it caused him to become like this? It couldn’t have just been some simple thief who broke in.

The first time I can remember him every acting strange is when he finished his very first shift as the night guard in the first location. He jumped into my hooves when Pinkie turned on and screamed.

I looked out the window, it was getting pretty dark outside. But if I was going to find the answers I’m looking for, then I’ll have to get to the first location and look through the security tapes. Jet never let me look through them, saying that they were just boring tapes of him sitting down and throwing a ball back and forth at a wall.

I opened the door and turned, locking it and closing it. I opened my wings and flew up, flying to the old location.

I flew down as I got there, looking at the sign that showed Pinkie and all her friends with smiles on their faces. I smiled at the sight of the animatronic friends, and the joy they brought to foals and colts.

I looked down to the door and looked around, seeing nopony around I tried to open the door. But, naturally, it was locked.

I walked around the building to the secret entrance in the back that, thankfully, I overlooked back when the place was shut down so we could move to the next location.

I opened the door, creating a loud creaking sound that echoed through the building.

I entered the old building and put a box down in front of the door, stopping it from closing.

The building was still visibly old. The painting on the walls was cracking and I could hear some various creaking sounds resonating from deeper within.

I took a deep breath and took a step inside. “Okay Fluttershy... You can do this. Just find those security tapes and watch them. Then you can leave.” I thought to myself.

I walked deeper into the building, finding the night guard office and entering, looking around.

“Now where would they be?” I asked. I don’t remember Jet taking any boxes from the security office. The place still looked the same. The cupcake thing was there, the poster of Pinkie and her friends, and the old spin chair Jet loved.

I looked around, unable to find any boxes that held the security tapes. Or any boxes for that matter.

I walked up to the front desk and looked under it, not finding anything. I sighed and looked down.

“What happened to you Jet?” I asked myself.

I lifted my head but bumped it against the desk. I heard something hit the floor and saw a VHS tape on the floor.

I picked it up, rubbing my head, and read the words on the tape.

“Five Nights at Pinkie’s. Keep away from Fluttershy.” I read.

I looked around and found the TV, plugging it in and putting in the tape.

I hit the play button and sat down on the chair as I put the TV on the desk.

I saw Jet walk inside the office and sit down on the chair, nearly jumping back out of it as the phone in the office began to ring.

Jet answered the phone and it started playing a prerecorded message made by a stallion named Flash Sentry, the night guard at the time.

Flash Sentry went on saying that Jet made a big mistake taking the job and that the animatronics would move around and hunt him down so they could shove Jet into an empty exoskeleton suit.

He must have been trying to scare Jet a little, just as a tease or something.

Jet looked down at the tablet and his wings went down and I could see his whole body shaking. The camera was in an angle at the back of the room, so I could see over Jet’s shoulder and see tablet’s screen.

I felt my own body start to shake as I looked at the tablet screen, seeing the Stage.... With Applejack missing.

I watched through the tape, only to watch Jet screaming and freaking out, flying out faster than anything I’ve ever seen as soon as the bell rang.

I watched through the three others, which were just Jet freaking out at the whole thing as he shut the doors.

Sometimes during the third and fourth night I would hear something bang against the left door after Jet closed it and looked back at the tablet.

I could kind of see into the hole the room has in it on the right side. And sometimes, before Jet shuts the door on the right side, I could see something that was white. I didn’t know what it was, but I kept having a thought that it was Rarity.

But that couldn’t be it! .... Could it? No! There’s no way that the animatronics could move around freely! No, this must just be some weird error thing on the camera or something.

I turned my attention back to the TV as it showed the fifth night Jet worked, which began calm enough, but with Jet freaking out earlier than normal.

The night went on and I started to hear more banging at the left door before all of it just stopped and Jet began looking around as if he was confused about something.

I felt my eyes suddenly get extremely heavy and forced themselves shut before opening again, and I could feel my body begin to shake as I saw something in the closed room with Jet. In the room, both doors closed, sat the purple animatronic suit from the back room.

The very same suit we wanted to mold in honor of Shining Armor’s sister, Midnight Glow. I could see Jet stare at the thing and brace himself, as if he was expecting it to do something. But it just sat there, staring directly at him with it’s black, dark eyes.

Jet was staring at the tablet, but as soon as the animatronic suit appeared he lowered it.

Then, the room went dark. Jet began panting wildly, freaking out. Then, to my horror, out of the left side of the room I saw the Applejack animatronic and the Rainbow Dash animatronic walk into the room as Jet watched then, shaking.

Then, to the right, I saw the Rarity and Pinkie Pie animatronics walk inside.

I was staring at the screen, wide eyed at what I was seeing. The animatronics stood there, staring at Jet as he shook in fear.

He lowered his head after a while of staring at them and I could hear him crying.

I could hear him mumble something, which caused the animatronics, except the purple suit, to lean forward as if they were asking him to speak up.

“I’m sorry.” He said, his head lowered.

The creatures backed up and started chuckling.

“I’m sorry. I’m so, so, so sorry.” He said. I could hear him sobbing as he spoke, indicating he was crying. “I’m a monster. I’m not saying that I expect you all to forgive me, I’m just saying that I need to say that I’m sorry. It wasn’t all me. I was put up to it.” The animatronics stared at each other, then back to him. “I didn’t want to kill any of you, honest, but I was forced to. If I didn’t then the man would kill me, Fluttershy, and everypony who meant the world to me.”

“Jet was put up to it?” I thought.

The creatures seemed to light up as soon as Jet mentioned my name, leaving me to guess they must like me.

“I’m a disgusting pony. What I did was a disgusting waste of pony life. It was a mistake that I wish I could take back. But I can’t. Faust knows I should die. And now seems to be the appropriate time for it to happen.” He said, holding his head high up.

The animatronics turned their heads to stare at the purple animatronic, as if they were waiting for it to respond.

They all then turned their head to him and he braced himself again.

But nothing happened, soon Jet began to relax himself and the animatronics were just staring at him.

Then the bell rang, it was 6:00. The creatures looked at the purple one and my eyes were forced closed and the purple suit was gone. The animatronics walked out of the room, quiet, not making a sound. Jet just stood there, not making a sound either, he probably was wondering what had happened.

I stared at the screen, too busy being shocked at the fact that the animatronics were walking freely and the purple one was teleporting or whatever, to even think about what had just happened.

There were so many questions going on in my mind, and I couldn’t find the answers to any.

The screen started going to static and I hit the TV a little, making the screen go back to normal.

The screen showed Jet with another stallion, Jet reading a magazine and the stallion looking at the tablet. Then the screen started going to static again and it returned to normal, but I could see the stallion being dragged from the room by the animatronics.

The screen went to static as my jaw fell open, the screen went back to normal and it showed Jet with the animatronics in the room.

The animatronics were flashing light from their eyes, the Pinkie Pie one standing next to Jet as it shone a light at a magazine he was reading it, the Rainbow Dash one was just leaning against the wall, and the Rarity and Applejack animatronics walked out of the room through opposite doors with their heads held up high as if they had just gotten done with an argument.

Jet looked up from the magazine and looked at the Pinkie Pie animatronic. “Fluttershy would hate to see you guys like this... Well, murderous, I mean. She’d just hate having to be forced to get rid of you guys due to you being too dangerous.” He said to the animatronic. “That’s why I have to keep your guy’s sentience a secret.”

The camera started going to static and the screen turned black, leaving me in the darkness with the never ending mental picture of the animatronics dragging the stallion away, and the animatronics staring at Jet.

I looked down and I saw something at the bottom of the TV. I lifted the TV and saw it was a picture taped to the bottom of the TV. I took the picture off and saw that it was a picture of me, with writing on it.

“Do the job. Or her wings come off.” It read.

I dropped the photo, unable to fully process what was happening.

I heard some creaking from deeper inside the building and I ran out with fear.

I ran home and closed the door, slamming it closed and locking it with every lock I had and using a chair from the kitchen to hold it closed.

I ran up the stairs and closed the bedroom door, jumping in the bed and hiding underneath the covers as my whole body shaked.

I couldn’t get the mental image of the animatronics out of my mind, and I could feel my body shaking more at the thought.

“So that’s why Jet couldn’t let the animatronics get off his mind...” I thought. “Oh Faust... Jet....”

How He Got Here

I stood up and looked down upon the animatronic, nodding my head in approval at the pink abomination.

“It’s almost time, Puppet.” I thought, “To make my return, and to kill this ‘Jet Black’.”

I saw the Puppet turn it’s head to me and heard a static noise. “Leave Jet out of it you freak.”

“The mother bucker is going to wish he had never taken this job.” I thought.

I heard another static noise that emanated from the Puppet. “It’s not him you want. It’s that monster he calls a marefriend. She’s the one who ruined everything. She turned my creation into something to point and laugh at. She ruined everything.”

I turned to the Puppet and walked towards it, getting on one knee and stared directly into it’s eyes, seeing a little blood oozing inside.

“We’re the real monsters Silver Screen.” I thought, “We’re abominations. Cast aways.” I turned to the Pinkie Pie animatronic and pointed to it. “That’s a victim.”

I stood up and turned to walk away to put the last finishing touch on the Pinkie Pie animatronic, but was stopped when I heard more static noises from the Puppet. “So what are you going to do Flash? Are you going to use us to kill anypony you see?”

“Baby steps Silver. Baby steps.” I thought, walking to the Pinkie Pie animatronic.

I got down on one knee and picked up a top hat from next to the pink animatronic and placing it neatly on it’s head.

The animatronic eyes immediately turned on and the pink creature recoiled a bit at the sight of me.

I stood up and started giving a wheezily chuckle as I turned to see the Rarity, Puppet, Balloon Spike, Mangled Rainbow and Rainbow Dash animatronics.

I looked at the madpony stare at the animatronics as he gave off a wheezy chuckle. I could do nothing but thank Faust that Toy Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Rarity were destroyed to make scraps before this placed opened. And thank Faust that the Applejack animatronic isn’t here.

I should have never shoved Flash into that damned suit.

I remember when he first got this job, during the first nights we just went easy on him just to give him something to freak out over so I could see my murderer fear.

But he came back after the first night, which left me in shock.

The Applejack animatronic told me that he kept talking about how he knew that I was behind this, and that he was going to find the my suit and destroy it.

I decided to just have a little fun. When it was the fifth night, I made sure all of the animatronics stayed still on the stage, and I began moving through the building. Then, he shut both doors, from paranoia most likely, and I began banging on them.

The animatronics came to help me, banging on the doors until the power finally ran out and Flash Sentry was at the mercy of me.

The animatronics dragged him away to a back room to wait for me. I noticed he was making a prerecorded message and decided to make my own.

“If you’re hearing this, then I think you know who you are to me. And how much I want to kill you. You ruined everything that once made this place great, and I don’t take too kindly to that. But don’t worry, Fluttershy, soon you will know the Joy of Creation.” I said to the phone. I was sure that it was going to come out as just a bunch of beeping and static noises, but I didn’t care. I was getting the sweet revenge on my murderer that I deserved.

I went to the back room and found the animatronics holding him next to a yellow, decayed bunny animatronic suit. I knew what it was, it was one of the three animatronics that were supposed to be the things that brought Silver Screen’s Ponyplex Theater up to the top and make it well known across Equestria.

Rarity took off the head of the suit as I watched the other animatronics try to force him into the suit, only to face complications as he struggled and fought back against them.

He then tried to kick one of the animatronics, probably thinking it would get that one to let him go so he could break free easier and run away, but it only caused him to lose his grip and fall right in there, back hooves first.

He fell in and struggled to crawl back out, but it was too late as Pinkie Pie put the head back on, trapping him.

He struggled in the suit for a while before the suit turned on, but due to it never being completely finished, it’s wires, springs, and gears began pounding into him and causing him to howl out in pain.

He fell on the animatronic creature’s knees and I could see blood spilling out of the suit, his eyes began bulging out to the suit’s eye sockets, and I could see his body being ripped apart, exposing flesh and blood, through the holes in the decaying suit.

He looked up at us through the suit, shaking in pain, and I could see his bottom jaw in the mouth of the animatronic suit.

He shook for a while before falling back, sitting against the wall and beginning to twitch and shake in pain.

I turned and left the room, entering the kitchen and back into the ‘no enter’ room which, I shared with the unfinished purple animatronic suit, and climbed back into my box.

I wish I hadn’t done that... I should have just torn him to pieces right then and there...

Then he wouldn’t be here, right in front of me, wheezily chuckling at seeing the animatronics he had just rebuilt and were going to use to kill Jet, my brother, and then go out and kill anypony he sees.

And here I was, unable to stop him. Just sitting here, watching him rebuild the nightmares of the past.

... I should have used these animatronics to kill that monster back when I had the chance...

I had killed that other pony at the mall... I should have just ignored him and went off to look for Fluttershy. Then she would be dead and I wouldn’t have to care about the situation right now.

But... He is going to kill Jet... He may be dating that monster, but that doesn’t mean I can’t help him. I just need to hope Jet is ready to fight them back with no doors.
