hi

It was dusk by the time Twilight left the Mayor's and arrived back at the library. She closed the door and sat on the couch with a sigh. "What a day..."

An ash tray sat on the arm of the couch with four cigarette butts in it.

The unicorn sighed. "Oh, Spike..."

Just then there was a knock at the door.

Twilight let out a short gasp before getting up and trotting over to the door. She then opened it. "Hello?"

There stood a brown colt. "Hello, Miss Sparkle. Detective Clue. May I come in?" he asked

"Detective? Uh... sure... I-I guess..." She stepped to the side, allowing the colt access to her home.

He smiled as he came in and sat at her table. "Ma'am... Have you heard of anypony coming into town last night?"

"Well... Actually there was... one colt that was asking around for a place to stay; A hotel. Is that the one?"

"I would gess so. Do you know where he is?"

"No. Sorry. I told him a good place to stay, but... I don't really remember the place I suggested. Sorry."

The colt raised an eyebrow. "Really? Well he's been reported missing. And just today, a miss Bon Bon was reported missing..."

Twilight's heart sped up. "Bon-Bon's missing?" she asked, sounding surprised and upset. "W-Well... Do you have any leads?"

"Not really. Some think there's a killer on the loose..." he said, eyeing Twilight.

Twilight went wide-eyed. "A k-killer? Here? In Ponyville?"

"That's what it seems like..."

"There are... a lot of foals in Ponyville. I know most of them. Please, catch whoever's doing this."

"Oh, I will... Miss Sparkle. I will catch all of them." And with that he got up and left.

"All of them?" asked Twilight, a little nervous. She got up and went to the door, looking out to see if she could see the detective.

All she caught a glimpse of was a chariot taking off. She then took off back to Sugarcube Corner. She burst through the door and closed it shut.

"PINKIE!!!" she yelled. "PROBLEM!!!"

The pink mare's ear twitched as she opened her eyes. She then shook Scootaloo gently. "Hey. Wake up."

"Mmmmh?" The filly looked up. "M-Mommy?"

"I hear Twilight." She paused. "Something's wrong. Get up." She stood up and left the room.

Scoots slowly got up and followed. Pinkamena began trotting down the stairs.

"PINKIE!!!" yelled Twilight.

"What?" asked the pink mare, arriving at the bottom of the stairs.

"A detective! He was asking about Bon-Bon and that colt I ate."

Pinks' eyes narrowed. "Clue... THAT FUCKER!!! Next time he shows his face, I'll kill him."

"Clue?" asked Scoots.

"He's, uh... your... uncle, Scoots," said the pink mare.

Twilight let out a soft gasp.

"Y-You mean dad's... brother?" asked Scootaloo.

"Yeah," said the pink mare. "You know him?"

"He... Not really."

"So... You'd be okay if I, uh... You know..."

"Oh, yeah. It's fine. You're all I need," she said, hugging Pinkamena.

Pinks smiled and hugged her back before looking at Twilight. "If you see him, kill him." Twilight gasped slightly.

"Something wrong, Twi?" Scootaloo asked.

"I just... don't know if I'll be able to... kill him..."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm not like you two. I'm not... a murderer..."

"Awww..."

"But I'll keep on lying to him if he starts asking me more stuff." Pinks' eyes narrowed. "No... No more talking. Next time he shows his face, he's dead."

"Yeah. He'll tell on us!" called Scootaloo.

Twilight held her head. "This can't be happening..." She took a deep breath to calm down and nodded. "I-I'll do my best..." she said with a tear in her eye.

"You'd better," said Pinkamena.

Twilight took a step back. "If it's okay, I'll... head home..."

"Sure," said the pink mare. "Go on."

The unicorn nodded and looked at Scootaloo before leaving. The orange filly waved her hoof in a shooing motion.

Twilight sighed and headed outside and back to her home, only to find the door open. She quickly ran up to it and peered inside.

Clue was standing over the exact spot where the colt had died, his horn glowing as something moved on the far wall. Twilight squinted to see what he was doing.

The floor glowed a sickly blue. "Just as I thought; blood..." Clue looked up at what Twilight could now see was Spike, struggling to breathe as he was held up by a ring of magic around his neck. "I can see why you tried to attack me. You must be attached to Miss Sparkle. Just help me bring her in and you can go free."

Spike only glared. "F-Fuck you!"

Twilight opened the door and stepped in, glaring at Clue.

"Ah, Miss Sparkle. Care to explain the blood on your floor?" he asked, lifting Spike a little higher, making him gasp for air.

"You let him go right now," Twilight demanded.

"No. He was concealing evidence of a murder... murderer..."

"Let him go... or you'll regret it."

"Miss Sparkle... I will tell you once. We are going to trot to my carriage where I'll bring you to jail, then I'll drop off the dragon... in the cell next to yours."

Twilight's eyes narrowed. "Then come get me, you piece of shit."

The colt trotted forward, smiling. Twilight suddenly took off full speed and tackled him to the floor.

"Ah! Bitch!" yelled the colt.

Twilight's eyes rolled into the back of her head slightly as she opened her mouth and bit down hard on the colt's neck.

Clue started kicking at Twilight's stomach as hard as he could.

The unicorn let out a low growl as she pierced Clue's skin with her teeth, blood pouring out onto the floor.

"Ahhh-gghhhh..." he started screaming, only to start drowning in his own blood.

Twilight then pulled back, tearing off a nice chunk of meat before chewing it, moaning with pleasure. Clue grasped at his missing neck as he died. Twilight chewed furiously and swallowed before leaning in and tearing off another chunk.

Spike slowly caught his breath as he chocked out, "T-Twilight!"

The unicorn swallowed the flesh and leaned in drinking the blood from his neck before tearing off another chunk.

"T-Twilight!" Spike yelled again.

The unicorn was too lost in the spoils of her kill that she didn't hear Spike. She just kept chewing. She then swallowed and dove her face into the wound, noisily drinking the blood.

Spike picked up a book and tossed at her. "Twilight!"

The unicorn let out a grunt as the book hit her and looked over at Spike, blood all over her face.

"What?" she asked, somewhat sternly. "I'm eating."

"A... colt..." Spike said, holding back vomit.

"What about a colt?"

"He knew about Pinkie... and Scootaloo."

Twilight drove a hoof into the wound and pulled it out, licking the blood off. "Not anymore."

Spike gagged. "Sh-Sholudn't you... tell her?"

"You care about Pinkie all of a sudden?" asked Twilight, driving her hoof inside the wound again, this time swishing it around.

"No... Scootaloo."

Twilight stopped what she was doing. "I probably should tell her. Could you have her and Scoots come over, please? I'm sorta... busy..."

"Yeah, I--" Spike suddenly vomited as he got a good look at Twilight's work.

He then rushed out the door. Twilight went back to her meal, waiting for the others to arrive.

Pinkamena was sitting at a table, sharpening a knife when there was a set of loud knocks at the front door. Pinkamena trotted up to the door and opened it and saw Spike throwing up in a bush.

"Spike?" asked Pinks. "What're you doing here?"

"Twilight... Dead detective... Gonna be sick!" he chocked out before throwing up once more.

Pinkamena went wide-eyed. "SCOOTS!!!"

The filly bolted down the stairs. "What happened?"

"I think Twilight killed Clue. Come on!" she yelled, taking off out the door, heading towards the library.

Scoots bolted after her.

The pink mare burst through the library door to find that Twilight had eaten most of Clue's neck and had now made a hole in his chest. She bit down and ripped a piece off before chewing.

"Holy shit," said the pink mare, feeling both shocked and proud.

"Wow..." Scoots said with a whistle.

"Well, Scoots," said Pinkamena. "What do you think?"

"I think he's dead."

Twilight's ear twitched and she looked up at them, her face covered in blood.

"Pinkie. Scoots. Hello," she said, driving a hoof into the wound and then licking the blood off. Pinkamena just stared.

"You hungry, there, Twilight?" Scoots asked, smiling slightly.

The unicorn's horn lit up and there was a sick cracking and squishing sound before a bone was ripped from the colt's chest. She then began eating the meat off of it.

"Psssst... Pinkie... Ribs!" Scootaloo said snickering.

Pinks smiled at Scootaloo's comment. Twilight threw the bone aside and her horn lit up again. The rib cage in the colt's body were ripped open, blood splattering everywhere. Twilight leaned forward and began licking the blood that was pooling in the colt's gaping chest.

Pinks shuddered slightly. "Holy fuck."

Twilight looked over at Scootaloo. "Would you like a taste?"

Scoots cheered, trotting closer. Twilight ripped the heart out and held it over her head. She then tilted her head back and squeezed the heart, drinking the blood. Pinkamena still just stared, totally shocked by what Twilight was doing. Scoots slowly snagged a rib and munched on it.

Pinkamena trotted over to Scoots and Twilight. "How does it taste?"

"Hmmmm... Kind of salty..."

"Salty?" asked Pinkie. Twilight wiped her mouth and stood. "I think I'll save the rest for later."

Pinkamena nodded. "So... Good?"

Twilight nodded. "Delicious."

Pinks eyed Scootaloo. She was gnawing on the bone.

"So, Scoots..." said Pinkamena. "What do you think of Twilight now?"

The purple unicorn eyed her and then looked at Scootaloo.

"She's fun!"

"I'm fun?" asked Twilight, looking at the bleeding corpse.

"Well, you're having fun... Same difference."

Twilight eyed the corpse again. "Guess there's no going back now. I suppose I'm one of you now."

Pinkamena smiled and nodded.

"Yay!" the filly cheered.

Twilight smiled and trotted passed Scootaloo, giving the foal a playful rub on the head.

The purple unicorn looked out the door. "I wonder what Spike thinks of me now. He probably hates me. Probably thinks I'm disgusting!"

Pinkamena looked at the corpse. "Well, that was a little... extreme..."

Scootaloo nodded in agreement.

"Well, I was hungry," said Twilight. "And he threatened Spike and Scootaloo. And you said to kill him when I saw him!"

"And you did very good, Twilight," said the pink mare. "Proud of you."

Twilight gasped at Pinkie's compliment.
