Chapter 2 - the first killing

Author's note

So, you all decided on Diamond Tiara, huh. NOTE: i will not be held responsible for any nightmares or hurling

This... thing that had stolen my body was making it's way towards the park, it avoided any living thing, all of them were in groups, they would be harder to kill. it reached the park and hid in the bushes and trees. I heard a voice, coming from a pony walking down the path, I wanted to scream "RUN AWAY!!!" but I couldn't, I was a prisoner in my own mind, unable to warn the pony of it's imminent danger. It came into view, a pink filly, with a mane and tail that were purple with white streaks along them, on her flank was a picture of a tiara. The thing growled in anticipation, I kept trying to yell "RUN, GET AWAY" but I could do nothing as it silently slipped out of the bushes and snuck up behind her, she seemed to feel something breathing down her neck and began to turn around, saying "who's there breathing down my neck, it's not very polite you kno-" she broke off as she saw the thing, it stood a good 6 feet above her. She looked at it with fear in her eyes, she was barely able to whimper "wh-what are you?" it brought it's paw up, unsheathing the claws, i kept screaming "RUN!!!!!!" she looked like she was about to scream.

-GORE SCENE STARTS NOW-

If she screamed this thing might back off, especially if more ponies come i thought, and she almost made it too, it brought it's claw down on her tiny chest, and ripped out her vocal cords. her eyes widened as she tried to scream, but couldn't even whimper. i saw the pain in her eyes as she looked at it, pain and fear. Fear of me i thought, it picked her up, she bled all over the grass, it still picked her up, and leapt into the forest. she was trying to scream the entire time, because of pain and fear i caused this, it's my fault i was only able to think those words, over and over, repeating in my mind, the broken record of my sanity played on, i turned my body and senses over to the beast completely, hearing only my own pain, seeing nothing but the pain in her eyes.

when the thing landed, it set her down, reached over to one of her legs, and broke it with a sickening SNAP, she couldn't even walk now, couldn't get away. the thing left her, dying, in the woods. it collected sticks, several sticks. It came back, to the still living, squirming pony. It picked her up and set her down on her back, it picked up a stick, and drove it through her left leg . her eyes screamed with pain, but it seemed not to even notice as it drove another spike into her other leg, it speared her arms to the ground as well, and put the rest of the sticks in a pile, they were all sharpened.

It looked at the bleeding immobile pony, pondering what to do to it's first catch, it decided, it walked over to the pony, and stabbed it with a claw in the chest, it slowly pulled down, slitting her ope entirely, she writhed, in a pitiful attempt to get free, it reached over and grabbed both sides of the slit, and slowly began to pull them open, the pony had been crying ever since having her vocal cord ripped out of her chest, her entire face was soaked in her own tears. the slit widened into a gaping hole to reveal all the internal organs, it reached in and violently ripped out her liver. it picked up a stick and speared the organ, planting it in the ground, doing the same for all her non-vital organs it looked over at her still face, lifeless, she hadn't been able to take the pain and had died, it continued ripping out her organs, until all that was left was her heart, brain, eyes and tounge. It ripped off her head, leaving her carcass with nothing but a heart, it ripped the brain and eyes out, and speared them. It reached into her lifeless body, nearly devoid of blood, as it was spilled all over the ground, it picked up the heart and ate it.

It surveyed the internal organs, impaled on sticks and at the lifeless body, it speared the head as well, before running off.

-GORE SCENE OVER-

I awoke the next day with no memories past meeting twilight, i wondered for a moment before one thing came back to me, eyes filled with pain and fear. I crouched in a fetal position, remembering nothing, but those eyes. "DEREK!!" i heard a voice yell. it seemed familiar, but i could do nothing, i just lay there, in an alley, holding myself (...do i even have to say it? NOT IN THE WAY I KNOW SOME OF YOU ARE THINKING). i slowly decnded, deeper into my own mind, trying desperately to get away from that image. my senses began to fade, but even through the haze that covered me, deafened my ears i heard it "d-derek?" a voice, it was so familiar, i felt something pick me up, and i gave a small squeak and tried to hide. I felt small, insignificant, i had a feeling that if i let it take me i would be hurt, if i just hid, did nothing, felt nothing, i would be safe. but whatever was holding me didn't stop and i saw a bright flash through my tightly closed eyes. i closed my eyes even tighter to try and escape the new light that had appeared before me, it was like the sun was shining in my eyes. i grew into a tighter ball, i knew the light brought pain, pain and suffering, the dark brought cold and lonliness, but lonliness was better than pain.

Perspective change - twilight

"how is it possible that he slipped out of my magic," twilighy groaned "now i have to find him again". she looked everywhere, all night she searched for him, but she never found him. around midnight she decided to go back home and get some rest, she was walking through the park when she heard a voice, a young filly say "wha-what are you" right before she heard another sound, one she knew she could never forget, a splattering, ripping sound that made her blood run cold. she peered around the corner to see a giant furry thing looming over a filly, it was holding something, she relisd what it was a split second before it threw it away, her vocal cords. Twiight nearly fainted right there, but shook herself awake as it grabbed the filly and jumped over the first few trees into a clearing, it reached down and broke the filly's leg, it ran off, twilight knew she should run out there and save the filly, but she felt a fear in the depths of her being, a fear of the thing that did this to the filly, a fear that it would come back and find her, and do worse to her. she turned away and fled.

Authors note

The first person who guesses what the light was correctly get's to choose the next victim (as long as it's none of the mane 6, or celestia, or luna, honstly i'm surprised that noone voted celestia or luna, since they were NOT excluded from the last voting)
