"I'm absolutely amazed! I had no idea those chemicals would work that well! She died, not from going into shock from the pain alone, but from her neck breaking as a result of her violent thrashes. Had it not been for that, who knows how much pain she could have survived. It up sets me that I'll never know just how much pain her body could have taken before dying, now that she is gone." Twilight Sparkle turned to the last surviving pony of the group. "We're almost done, Rarity!"

Rarity was shaken and teary. All of her closest friends were no longer with her. She was all alone.

"I have something special in store for you." Twilight said, obtaining a syringe. Rarity said nothing. She didn't care anymore. She was just grateful that she would be joining her friends soon, but hoping it would not be too painful. The purple unicorn stuck the hypodermic needle

into the white pony's spine, just below the neck. Slowly, she was losing the use of all her voluntary muscles below the neck.

She, though looking forward to her death, was frightened as to what she might be subjected to before her final departure. Especially seeing the torments Fluttershy had to go through. "Ple... please tell me what you plan to do to me... "

"Rarity, I want it to be a surprise. I've been looking forward to your session most of all. Oh the secrets that will be revealed!" A button glowed on the central control panel, and Rarity was released, but unable to walk or crawl away. Twilight hoisted the fallen pony onto her back, and carried her to the back room. The back room's contents were completely organized. The Carts of active organ containing jars were all lined up next to each other against the walls. The surgical knives, bone cutters, syringes, and all kinds of other tools were sorted by category on trays and in metal cases, all resting on counters and shelves. And glassware, such as test tubes and flasks were sitting in glassware holders, also on the counters and shelves. And there were a few other strange devices up against the walls.

At the end of the room was a door accompanied by numbered buttons on the wall next to it. Twilight Sparkle typed a long numerical code, opening the door, allowing them to go inside an elevator. Twilight looked so excited, "Congratulations Rarity. You're the only one of the five who get to see my underground layer. Not many from the outside have ever visited, or even heard of my layer... fortunately for me."

Four buttons were visible on the elevator wall near the door they entered. Each corresponded to a floor. The purple unicorn pressed the very top button sending the elevator to sublevel one. Three minutes passed and the door on the other side of the elevator opened. Twi carried the hornless unicorn through the door, and down a few hallways, making some left and right turns.

During that walk, Rarity noticed a multitude of numbered doors, as in a hotel, only less friendly looking. Because the floors and walls were mostly concrete and metal. In addition to the labeled doors, there was what looked like a cafeteria, a medical center, and an entertainment room, passing by.

Arriving at some stairs, Twilight informed Rarity, "We'll take the long way, so I can show you around." They descended a very long way down the stairs, and entered a wider corridor. All along the right wall was a long glass window. Peering through the window, the paralyzed pony saw an extremely large room, in which were long conveyor belts, machinery, construction supplies, and an enormous empty space at the center.

Rarity had no idea what to think of this. "What... is all this?"

"Progress! It's amazing how much can be accomplished with powerful levitation magic and hundreds of diamond dogs and thousands of parasprite slaves under my hypnotic spell. Why, it only took 3 and a half months to construct this entire lair. It couldn't have been done that quickly without super energizing my workers with a magic potion I invented, via injection. Moving along..."

At the end of the hall, they then entered a room much smaller than the factory they just observed. "Progress? Progress in what?" Rarity said, before looking around to see that the room's walls and desks where covered in maps. They were maps of all sorts of places in Equestria. They included Ponyville, Manehattan, Fillydelphia, the Everfree Forest, Canterlot, and other places, including ones she's never even heard of. On the wall to the right was a huge map of all of Equestria, and then some.

"To answer your question... let's just say... I have big ambitions. Very, very big ambitions." Twilight said with a gleeful smile.

The hornless unicorn's puzzled look changed into a look of great surprise and horror on realizing the implications of Twilight's statement 'big ambitions.' Moving out of the room and descending a long way down some more stairs, they entered yet another hallway. "There's no way you can pull this off. Princess Celestia and Luna are too powerful for you. An army of Diamond Dogs and parasprites won't work."

"Diamond Dogs? *snort* Yeah, right! I know that won't work."

"You'll be found out. Then Celestria will put you to justice!"

"Oh, I expect them to find out. I intend for them to discover my secret activities. But only when I'm prepared."

Rarity thought for a moment, then was tearing up, "Someone was bound to hear our screams and begging. Especially," her voice choked, "Fluttershy's... Spike is probably getting help as I speak!"

"Oh, dear! You're right!... *snort* Hahahahaha! Not likely. I put a spell around my basement. Loud sounds, even ones that loud, will be blocked. Quite ones won't be, so no one becomes suspicious. I use my magic to eliminate all physical traces of what goes on down here. I sometimes even set up a barrier that prevents any unwanted guests from entering. But I'm pleased you are thinking logically. You can see how useful it is to possess powerful magic."

Walking through the hall, they passed 8 doors, 4 on each side. The four on the left side were labeled "Inventions laboratory." The other four on the right side read "Chemical/Medical laboratory." They approached the end of the hall, where another corridor crossed the first perpendicularly, making two paths. Each side of the hall had two doors, making four doors total. All the doors were facing them. They read "Genetic engineering laboratory." Twilight entered with Rariy into one of the doors. It led them to a large, wide, tall, and very, very long room.

Along the right side of the huge corridor like room were desks, tables, and counters of all sorts of shapes, lengths, widths, and heights. On them were all kinds of tools and devices, such as testing tubes, computers, syringes, beakers, cloning cylinders, microscopes, and many other types. Heavy machinery were all over the place. There were doors all along the right wall of this gigantic corridor, leading to much smaller rooms, with large, long glass windows, allowing the viewer to see inside. In the rooms were desks with computers, paper work, and office supplies. On the room's walls were charts. It all looked absolutely intimidating. But it was all dwarfed in comparison by the right side of the giant hallway.

There were rows and rows of big, cylinder glass tanks that served as giant test tubes. They were filled with a clear amniotic-like fluid, and each housed what appeared to be a sizable developing winged unicorn fetus. The fetuses' color was always changing, cycling through the entire spectrum. Their pupils almost covered their entire eyes. Their cutie marks were of that symbol that was cut into Fluttershy's flank by Twilight, and a unique lettered and numbered code under it. Each pony had a unique code of its own. Moving by, Rarity took notice of the monitors that were each connected to its own tank. A 'ready date' was displayed on each monitor, along with a category pertaining to the tank's respective winged unicorn fetus.

Going down the long room, she read the categories. They included "worker," "troop," "commander," "medical," "scientist," and others. As they went further, there were new, strange, and hideous creatures growing inside the test tubes. They were all under the category "experimental life form." Some where parasprites of larger and smaller sizes, some with sharp teeth, and a varying number of eyes and wings. A few tanks held multiple parasprite mutants at once. Other creatures shown were various hybrids of all sorts of combinations of many different species. Some of the species involved were cockatrices, parasprites, Griffons, ponies of all three types, dragons, Manticores, Diamond Dogs, and many others.

Seeing all this, Rarity knew just how dead serious Twilight Sparkle was about her plans. It was a hellish realization of just what immense, abominable impact this would have on everything in Equestria, should she succeed. It would upset the natural order of everything she knew.

But Rarity wasn't convinced that Twilight could pull this off. "You can't do this. It's impossible."

"Hmm, maybe. We'll have to see." Replied Twilight.

"Why would you do this?"

"To see if it could be done."

"No. There's absolutely no reason for this. Don't do this!"

"Oh, Rarity. Haven't you ever wondered if it's possible for an ordinary pony, like myself, to completely rearrange the entire natural order of things? I know I have. That is why I have put myself up to this task. I'm very confident in my plans and abilities to execute them. Plus, you have to admit, it does sound fun. It's like a game!"

Rarity said nothing in return.

After what seemed like an eternity of walking through a nightmarish display of pure manic terror, they finally reached the end. Going through another doorway, the horned mare carried Rarity through an approximately 60 meter long corridor. Much shorter than the previous room. Twilight checked on her friend, "I'm just grateful to see that you are taking interest in my projects. I was afraid that my last remaining best friend would see it as just more boring fancy-shamcy science stuff. But you don't disappoint!"

They were at the halfway point of the hall. It was at that time that Rarity picked up faint sounds of moaning and crying. Twilight stopped to rest for a bit, "Mare! I'm tired. This was a llllooonnnggg walk. But we're so very close to the appointed place."

Drawing closer to the now visible door, the moaning sounds grew louder. Rarity made it out to be a multitude of individuals weeping and begging to be killed. She feared what she would find behind that door. So many thoughts ran through her panicking mind. "Who do those voices belong to? What's happening to them! Why are they begging to be killed? Please tell me I won't have to suffer their fate! Please, make this as quick and painless for me as possible! I want to die! Let me die now!"

Twilight Sparkle chuckled as if Rarity had told her a moderately funny joke, "No Rarity. I don't want you dead. I need you alive for a long time for this experiment to- OH YES! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! THIS IS GOING TO BE SO WONDERFUL! IT'S ALMOST TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE! AND WE'RE ALMOST HERE! HEEEE!"

And finally, they arrived at the door to the place of their destination. "Oooooooo, are you ready Rar?" The white unicorn was no longer willing to go through with this. She moved one of the body parts still under her control, and bit as hard as she could into her captive's neck, just as Twilight opened the door. Before Rarity could take out a chunk, Twi flung her into the room. "AAauuch, Rarity! That wasn't necessary."

Rarity had landed on her underside. The source of the wails was only one and a half meters away. One of them began to shout, "NNnNooOoO! Don't cut us open again! Aaaaeeeuuuu!"

"Please! We are large enough. Kaaahhhhheeeeyyyyy... Don't add on to us." cried another.

And yet another yelled, "It hurts us all when you cut even just one of us..."

Rarity's eyes were shut tight, far too scared to look up. But it was useless. The cruel unicorn sat Rarity upright against the wall, and forced her eyes open with her mystic horn powers. What Rarity was forced to behold, horrified her beyond belief. It was a huge, pulsating, moving (in place), intricate network of unidentified living, organic tissue. They were all branching off several large masses of oddly shaped, disgusting, moist, unknown living tissue. These hideous masses had strange, wiggling, and distorting body parts of unknown functions. The giant, pumping, vial veins of these... creatures... were all too apparent. There were other nasty features that these things possessed, who's purpose was beyond the terrified mare. And the biggest mass of organic tissue was at the center.

But the most horrific part was that there were deformed, wrongly structured, live bodies and body parts of mostly ponies embedded into the network and masses. Some bodies were not even whole. And they were positioned in the most awkward, uncomfortable manners possible, in relationship to themselves and each other.

"The central 'Looktrogon' is the primary source of their sustenance. It's like... their most vital organs." Twilight paused to see the expression on Rarity's face. "I've been working on this for about three weeks and four days. You're the element of generosity. So... I don't know. You are generously giving yourself to this creature by contributing your body to it's expansion. Sure. That will do."

The white pony spoke to herself, "Wake up Rarity. This is not real. None of this is really happening. None of this ever took place... *sob*" She still could not accept that Twilight was capable of committing these abominable acts. Her best friend.

"Take a good long look at this jumble of ponies. Get use to the idea. This is going to be you for a long time. This creature has a much longer life span than your average pony... So just be accustom to the idea... I'll be ready in a minute. I need to refill my laboratory flask with my... favorite drink." She left the room through a back door, with that evil looking symbol on it. Rarity listened as the clopping grew fainter. She shut her teary eyes, and just sat there in despair.

"R... Rarity... "

The mare in question looked up to see one of the bound ponies talking to her.

"I... think I... eeeeeAAAAAAGGHHHH! I think I know why Twi... Twilight is... HUH-huh-huh-huh-huh-hhuuuuh..."

"Why Twilight is what?"

"Why she is...GGGGUUUUUUUUOOOOOONNNNN! AAAAAAAHHHH!"

"HEY! What are you telling her?" Twilight had returned with her drink. "I do the lecturing here. Time to get going! You ready Rarity?" Twilight had a sip from her glassware. Rarity noticed Twilight's eye's had glowed a little brighter soon after her small consumption of the mysterious liquid...

"THE DRINK!" Rarity exclaimed. "That's what is making you do all this! Isn't it!"

Twilight Sparkle looked at Rarity with a vexed and serious face. She then turned to the massive mesh of ponies. Her horn illuminated the room. A violet beam of light projected from the horn's tip, and struck the central looktrogon. The magic ran through the entanglement of live, organic tissue, assaulting all the creatures trapped inside. They all forced out screams. howled and ululated. The looktrogons expressed their pain with demonic, low-pitched 'OOOOOOHHH' sounds. They all were in complete turmoil.

"Did any of you feed Rarity this information?" The angry female pony was now speaking in a satanic version of her voice, "You all know very well, when one of you suffers, you all suffer." She ceased the torture and turned to Rarity, who could hardly wrap her mind around what just happened. "Yes. It's true. I may as well confess. No point in hiding it now. I invented a magic potion to increase my intellect and magic. It works well. It's composition is for me alone to know."

Rarity felt like an idiot. She thought to herself, how could she or any of her friends not have seen this before? It was the drink! During her twisted experiments, Twi was consuming that strange, fizzing liquid throughout the whole night. She felt that they could have prevented all of this, had they only known. And, had they known earlier, maybe they could have stopped her from killing anyone. It was a miserable feeling.

Rarity spoke, "Twilight! All you have to do is put down that glass. Then we can settle everyth-"

The demonic pony's eye's glowed bright red. She continued, this time in her satanic tone, "But it's NOT ENOUGH! I'll genetically and magically alter myself, increasing my power and wisdom further, such that I will no longer have to rely on this potion. My power and wisdom will surpass those of Princess Luna, Celestia, and the Elements of Harmony combined! With this power, and the combined effort of my army of super powered, winged unicorns, I will commence a full takeover of Equestria. The elements of harmony will be destroyed. I'll wipe out Celestia, Luna, from existence, if necessary. Any and all resistance I shall smite! I'll immortalize myself and rule over all of Equestria for all eternity!"

Twilight reverted back to her usual tone and appearance. She breathed heavily until she calmed down. "...Sorry... I become a bit too... enthusiastic at times when thinking about Equestria's bright future." She wore a smile of the purest glee, "You ready?"

A cart wheeled over to Twi. She opened a metal case resting on top of it, revealing an array of surgical instruments not dissimilar to the ones she has been using all night.

"Listen Twilight! I'm your... Friend," Rarity said, not sure if it was true. "Friends don't hurt friends. They don't cut them with knives, or stick needles in them. What kind of friend are you? Don't you remember... the magic of friendship?"

"Yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes! This is going to be so much fun! Yay, surgery." The doctor pony exclaimed, clapping her front hoofs, not paying attention to what Rarity was saying.

"Twilight Sparkle!" the white coated unicorn shouted, "Think back, before all this happened. We were so happy together. We loved and cared for each other. It was true friendship we had. But now-"

"And it still is." the purple horned mare interrupted, "We're on a road of discovery together. If that isn't true friendship, then I-"

"You killed your friends. How can you be friends with them if they are dead? You can't. You clearly were never their friends if you planned to kill them." Rarity's passion took over, "I can't be your friend now... Infact, I was never your friend! You don't deserve me or anyone else as a friend!"

The lavender horse just stared at the ground, possibly thinking about what the unicorn was saying to her. There was silence. She quickly drank her entire glass in one go. Then, with such force and emotion, threw the laboratory flask to the ground, shattering it into many small pieces. With a sudden jolt, she lifted her head, revealing the hugest grin she had ever given that night. Those illuminating, red eyes of the purest manic look, stared directly into Rarity's, piercing her troubled soul.

That wide smile spoke with a demonic tone, filled with bitterness and forced glee, "Hee hih heh ha ha ha ha. My friends gave their lives for the sake of expanding the knowledge of friendship. They're still alive in our hearts and minds. They will be remembered. And now you are about to dedicate the rest of your life to science. So don't you dare say we were never friends."

"This has nothing to do with friendship! And STOP POISONING YOUR MIND WITH THAT FUCKING POTION!"

"EeeEEENNNNOOUUUUGH!" Twilight Sparkle's eyes began to tear, "You and I are having a learning experience together. If that doesn't spell friendship... We're friends. WE'RE FRIENDS! Let's begin NOW!"

She harshly forced a syringe into Rarity's throat. With much struggle, Twi managed to inject both vocal folds with a paralyzing substance, to keep Rarity from talking. Miss Sparkle had Rarity float to the central looktrogon, and remain in the air. Two minutes passed, allowing Twilight to calm down. She moved to her patient. The cart was positioned for convenient access for when the surgeon did her work. She opened the silver case and began.

She decided to use her magic for the entire operation, as it would require great speed and accuracy. A small, but extremely sharp knife hovered to the levitating pony. It made a deep, circular incision on Rarity's soft, fragile tummy. Rarity was paralyzed, in that she couldn't move anything below the neck down. But she could still feel the pain that the scalpel was inflicting on her. All she could do was breathe heavily from stress.

The surgeon removed the pancake shaped flap from Rarity, and squirted an antiseptic fluid on her fresh wound, to reduce the risk of infection. Twilight twirled the piece of Rarity around like she was handling moist, sauce Sprinkling pizza dough. She had more fun when she rubbed the red gooey side of it on Rarity's face, as if she were bragging to Rarity that she can cut her open with no trouble or regret. Rarity thought she was going to vomit any second.

"Pay attention. You may learn a good thing or two about surgical procedures." Twilight looked down to find a fresh, red puddle on the already dark brown stained floor under Rarity. "Oh, Hay! This is embarrassing." She quickly floated clamps to her patient, and latched them on along the cut skin to reduce the bleeding. "And I just spoke of surgical procedures. Heh, heh."

The surgeon discarded the red dripping sheet of skin and muscle into a meter wide hole on the top of the central looktrogon. Thin, green ligaments with orange, slightly curved hooks at their ends extended out of the hole. They caught the tasty morsel by the hooks. After fiddling around with it for a few seconds, they took it down into the hole, where fearsome tearing and shredding was heard. Twi informed, "It gets hungry when I perform an operation on it. Convenient that it takes the unneeded body tissue, nourishing everyone connected to it. Isn't it captivating?"

She turn to a familiar griffon, who's head was buried into the central looktrogon's base area. Her eyes and beak were poking out. Her body was suspended at a 45 degree angle from the ground, with her back facing towards the floor, and feet sticking in the air. And her body was being supported by a strange, disgusting growth, that she was connected to, and extending from a smaller, nearby looktrogon. Gilda was mumbling incoherent words, sounding very confused and frustrated. "Her brain is a little messed up and damaged from being fused with an internal organ belonging to the alpha looktrogon. It's kind of funny listening to her babbling nonsense." said Twilight, amused.

Rarity just cried the best she could. A larger scalpel floated over the griffon's belly and made a circular cut of the same shape and size as the one on Rarity's underside. The chamber filled with the echoing sounds of pain. The demented doctor fed her creature the bloody layer of meat, skin, and feathers. Gilda's wound was cleaned, and the blood vessels at the incision's edge were clamped. The more crucial and delicate part of the operation was coming up.

Twilight made a quick stab in the side of the open pony's stomach. A teary eyed Rarity silently gagged. Her urge to throw up was building further. The sickly unicorn was about to regurgitate. But the blade hastefully but carefully sliced off about three sevenths of her digestive organ. That portion fell off, and the stomach's contents spilled out. This left a huge gaping hole in the front of the tensing, throbbing organ. The surgeon's magic caught the falling tissue and stomach juices. She sent the juices and digesting food into the large hole on the top of her created monster for it to drink. And the organ fragment was caught in midair by the beast's orange claws peeking out of its top mouth. Twi wasted no time in covering the stomach's wound with antiseptic fluid, and then putting clamps along the stomach's hole's edge to prevent too much blood loss.

She turned to a bitter Gilda & jabbed her bare stomach and proceeded to mutilate it in the same fashion as she did with Rarity's. The multitude of life in the room increased the volume of their howls and wails. Once the wound was cleaned and clamped, and the Alpha looktrogon was fed, it was now time to sew.

Doctor Sparkle retrieved a surgical suture, consisting of asurgical needle and absorbable surgical thread. All the clamping forceps were removed from the two patients. Twilight positioned Rarity above the suspended half-eagle, half-lion creature, such that Rarity's face was looking right at Gilda's crotch. With both their stomach's gaps lined up to each other, and touching, the surgical suture pierced their tissue, and sewed them together. Twi worked with speed, via her sophisticated magic and knowledge of surgical procedures. After a knot was tied, the same thing was done to the two open bellies. The white pony and brown griffon were now surgically attached to each other by their stomachs and tummies. It was very awkward and uncomfortable. But it was only going to get worse.

The unicorn surgeon fetched a large scalpel. "I know who's hungry." She made a hurting incision around Rarity's left leg, just above the knee. Blood seeped out of the circular cut and covered the leg in red streams. Twilight rapidly moved the knife back and forth, cutting deeper into her test subject's leg from all sides. Rarity forcefully gnashed her teeth, with tear's of pain flowing down her miserable face.

The scalpel reached the bone all along the incision around the leg. The purple unicorn started slicing the leg below the incision into slabs of meat. They were tossed into the central creature of the room. After scraping the last bits of bloody muscle off of the leg bone, the massacre doctor used a bone cutting hacksaw to sever the exposed parts of the leg bones. She discarded the bone and continued the same nasty work on her victim's right leg. This time, however, the cut was made somewhere below the knee. With the bone stripped of it's brawn, it was cut off and thrown aside. An antiseptic was squirted onto the end wounds of both partial legs.

Surgeon Sparkle used the surgical needle and thread to sew the ends of the cut legs to the looktrogon, just above to where Gilda's head was stuck inside the beast. Rarity felt the paralysis beginning to wear off. She could weakly move her four legs. A clean cut bone cutting hacksaw pressed against her left arm, a centimeter away from the hoof. It sawed off the hoof. The hoof was thrown to the other side of the room. The vocal cords' paralysis were weakening. Rarity was now able to moan softly. The surgical suture sewed her front ligaments to a long, hanging piece of the unknown organic material. The hacksaw was cleaned via alcohol, and floated to the front leg.

The white unicorn now had enough strength to attempt to fend off the teethed blade. Twilight spoke with slight surprise, "What... Did I not give you enough paralysis... ?" Twi tried to position the saw to her patient's arm. But Rarity kept waving her arms. "Hold still! Or we'll never get this done." Twilight shouted. Rarity was rather successful at keeping the bone cutter at bay. The purple pony sighed.

She decided to take matters into her own hooves. She trotted to the fending pony's waving arm, and used her hoofs to hold it firm, before the hornless unicorn's strength fully returned. Quickly, Rarity's front hoof was cut off and cast aside. The end of her arm was cleaned and sewed onto another hanging rope of living tissue. The same basic process was used to surgically connect Rarity's right face cheek to somepony else's left butt cheek. "Hey! Cheek to cheek! HAHAHAheehee heh hoohoo!" Laughed the sick minded doctor. After all that surgery, Rarity was very bloody. Her underside, four legs, and right cheek were wet with red, as she slowly bled from all her visible stitches. Twilight informed, "The looktrogon's tissue should fuse with yours soon. Hey! You love fashion, right? Well, I'm lovin' your new look!"

"We're almost done!" Twilight began to hop around out of joy, "Yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes-yes! And the best part is right around the corner." At this point, Rar had regained almost all of her strength. She gradually joined in the chorus of weeping in the chamber. Twilight spoke, "Aw, you're sad? Cheer up Rar. Come on! Give me a smile!" Rarity continued wearing a face of great sadness.

"Here. Let me help you..." Twilight said, approaching the crying pony. She put her own lips against hers. A few seconds into the passionate kiss, Twi heard Rarity growl. She took that as a sign to move away. She moved in time to avoid Rarity's vicious CHOMP! Twilight wasn't bothered by this. She just raised her mouth to the end of the bound unicorn's front leg at the stitches. Her tongue started licking the blood. Then she was sucking on the blood that was flowing out. Her mouth was full with blood. But she did not swallow. Instead, she pushed Gilda a little out of the way. Her lips met Rarity's... The lips on Rarity's vulva. The blood spat out of the mouth and into the vagina. Twilight spent a minute or two making out with Rarity's slit, blood dripping out from the two pairs of lips.

Author's note: I do NOT have a fetish for someone kissing vulvas with blood dripping down both lips. I just wanted to show Twilight's sick state of mind.

Twilight looked up to Rarity, while spitting out the remaining blood from her mouth. "You're...still not smiling?...I know just the thing!" She had the cart draw closer. From it, she took and floated various scalpels, surgical scissors, forceps, retractors, needle holders, a surgical suture, syringes, and a basting bulb containing an antimicrobial substance. Using a good amount of magical energy, Twilight managed to freeze Rarity's mouth and neck in place with her magic, making sure the trapped unicorn wouldn't try biting, or moving her head away. With all these surgeon's tools at hand, Dr. Sparkle commenced a tedious operation on her patient's mouth.

Rarity's mouth was undergoing painful incisions, severing of nerves, cutting and connecting of tissue, and some other manipulations. With her mouth and neck forcefully still, all she could do to express her agony was to shed tears from her closed eyes, and loudly scream. After about a half an hour, the surgeon completed sewing the last of her patient's tissue together. She was finally done. Not with just Rarity's mouth, but with all her five closest friends. Twilight put away her instruments, and turned to see her handy work. She smiled in satisfaction, as she saw the big grin she put on her friends face.

Rarity's neck and mouth unfroze. But the only expression her mouth could show was a huge, bloody smile. "I am so happy you're smiling, Rar. Not even Pinkie Pie could give someone a smile this big!" Twi said with a gleeful tone. "Well... I suppose that's it..." Rarity was crying the hardest she had ever cried.

"I'll let you know how the invasion goes! See ya later!" Twilight said, just before leaving the room. The last thing she heard from Rarity that night was a loud, long 'NNNNNOOOOOOOOO!' just before teleporting out of the hall that was just outside in the room, in a flash of light.

Twilight teleported back to her basement laboratory where four of her friends' corpses were. She saw the mess of blood everywhere. "What.. a.. mess." She did not hesitate in picking up all the scraps and fragments of Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy. They were put in a sterile bucket. She spotted an untouched area on the floor, and put a nice, clean mat over it. She neatly arranged the dead ponies and Angel on the mat, having them sit up against a wall. Angel sat on Fluttershy's single-legged lap. Pinkie Pie was next to Flutter at her left, with her arms around her in an embracing hug. To Fluttershy's right was AJ leaning against her, her elbow resting on the yellow Pegasus' shoulder. And next to Applejack was Dashie, with, what was left of her right arm, around AJ's back.

"Now you all get to watch me work!" Twilight said, while taking out several scrubs and powerful detergents, and went right to work. Using her hoofs and magic at the same time, she sprayed all the filthy areas of the floor, walls, and machinery with detergent, using all the spray containers at once. With her magic and hooves, she soaked all the sponges and scrubs, and scrubbed hard using all of them simultaneously. She was hard at work, making sure every inch of the floor, walls, and machinery were spotless. When she finished, she put all the cleaning appliances away.

She looked at the entire room, and was very pleased with the great job she did that entire night. She turned to her friends. "They all look so cute together." Twi said, in admiration. Then a frown entered her face, "But they don't look very happy... It must have been the tough love I've given them tonight." She thought. Her face lit up, "Maybe, I'm not done just yet..."
