I awake once again to a hard, cold floor. At least this time i'm not wet. I crack my eyes open and squint in the light. It was dimly lit so my eyes got accustomed to the light fast. I sit up and take in my surroundings. It looks like i'm in a... Cell? I stand up, my legs shaky. How did I get here? I walk over to the bars locking me in and do my best to peek around the corner. There is a stair case but other then that nothing. I sigh and look around my cell. There is a little wooden bed and a small bared window above it. I jump on the bed. The window is still too high up. I jump into the air and hover, peering out the window. I could not see much, but it did not look like anywhere I know.
I land on the bed and sit, trying to think. The last thing I remember was looking out my window.. I scratch my head and wince. There is a lump on the side of my head and it hurts. How did I get that? I jump off the bed and walk over the the metal door holding me in.
"Hello?" I call out. My voice echoes. "Any pony there?" I hold my breath and listen. The faint sound of hooves on cement reaches my ears. YES! This thing will be all sorted out now. A pail yellow stallion in guard uniform rounds the corner and stops.
"Hey?" I ask. He jumps. I frown. "Can you let me out of here?" I sigh. Stupid stallion. Afraid of a little mare stuck in a cell. He looks over his shoulder and swallows.
"No." He says. My mouth drops open.
"Why NOT?" I snap. My head is starting to throb and i'm sick and tired of ever pony being afraid of me even though I have done nothing to make them that way. If they can except Zicora, then they can except me. The stallion jumps again at my harsh tone and starts to back away. "No wait. I'm sorry. I'm just cold and my head hurts and I just want to go home." A little whine enters my voice. "And I don't even know why i'm here in the first place." I let my head drop but keep my eyes on him. He stops backing up and looks at me confused but still not coming to let me out. I sigh.
"Please let me out." I look him straight in the eye putting all my effort to convince him with my voice. "I'm tired and.. Hungry." I add. A faint red glow surrounds his ears. His eyes glaze over as the glow flows into his ears.
"Anything you say, LoveNote." He says like he was drunk and walks over to my door. His horn glows red as he lifts the key up to my cell door. Strange, his magic should be a pail yellow like his coat. I look closer. His green eyes have a red glow to them. I step back from the door as he opens it. He stands as still as a statue holding the door open wide for me. I slowly walk by keeping my full attention on the stallion. He is freaking me out, acting all possessed like that. A shiver runs down my back as I fly up the stairs fast.
I land at the top of the stair case. I could turn left or right. I look back and forth. The noise of talking is coming from the left so I head that way. If there are ponies then they can help me get out. I trot down the hallway fast and come into a big open room. There are a bunch of desks and ponies working left and right. A few look up when I walk into the room.
"I need help out." I say making every pony look up at me. Fear enters their eyes and within a second I am surrounded by at least 10 ponies in uniform. All around me I see the glow of magic, all different colors. A blue and white one steps forward. His armor is different so i come to the conclusion that hes the caption. Perfect. He will get these ponies off of me.
"How did you get out of your cell?" He demands. The fear in his blue eyes show threw his confident demeanor. I sigh again. This is getting old.
"The stallion who was waiting for me to awake let me out. Now will you please show me the way out of this building?" I ask as nicely as I could. The purple and blue stallions magic next to him flickers. He leans over.
"Sunny let her out, Shining Armor? That does not sound like him." He whispers to the caption, Shining Armor.
"Go check on him." Shining Armor says to the stallion before turning back to me. "We can't let you go. You are subject in many attacks and a murder of one of the guard members." My mouth drops. Me subject in attacks and a murder?
"That is stupid!" I yell at him, my legs spreading out some to stabilize me more. The magic around me glows brighter and Shining jumps slightly. "I'm not even big enough to hurt, much less kill, some pony from your guard!" I glare at him. Out of the corner of my eye I can see a few of the ponies around me take a step back. Shining glares right back.
"You used magic." He counters. I blink.
"I'm a PEGASUS you stupid unicorn! Pegasuses have no magic, in case you forgot!" I snap at him. Anger fills me and I start to shake. Shining takes a step towards me, his nose just inches from mine.
"Exactly. So how did you do it?" He snaps back. I can barley control myself. It was almost like I was fighting myself. Part of me said to jump this arrogant foal and the other part said to back off and cool down. I start panting and look down. The marble floor under me shines as if it was just polished. If I concentrate hard enough I could almost see my reflection. A red glow is coming off of the floor like it was reflecting my... eyes?
I smile. My fangs poke out over my lower lip. I snap my head back up and glare at Shining Armor. His eyes widen and he jumps back. I leap into the air and surround myself in a red glow. All around me the ponies shoot their magic at me. It was quiet beautiful from where I am, the magic hitting mine and exploding into a colorful ball. Each time I get hit by unicorn magic I feel my powers grow stronger.
Once the ponies around me used up their strength I land again. Shining was still standing his ground where other ponies scream and run out of the room. I glare at him and smirk. The glow around me comes close to my body and then shoots out, smashing into the ponies around me, knocking them back. I make it go around Shining Armor though, i'm not done with him. I concentrate my magic on him and hold him still. He struggles against my magic uselessly.
"How do I do it?" I ask his as I stroke his cheek bone. I put my mussel right up against his ear. "Like this." I say and bit into his neck.
"Stop.." He says breathlessly. I chuckle. His blood spills onto his white coat, staining it red. Red always was the best color. I lick it off and look into his blue eyes. He tries to struggle against the red magic glowing around his body. I release him and he falls to the floor.
"Don't worry Shining Armor. I wont kill you. I never meant to kill the other one, I just did not know what I could do yet." I put my mouth near his neck again and lick the rest of the blood off of his neck. His eyes flutter and then shut. I spread my wings and take off towards the ceiling made of glass. I send a bolt of magic into the glass and it shatters, glass bits falling to the ground below me. The sun was up and as I look around I notice that I was not in Ponyville anymore. I was in Canterlot. I shoot off in the direction back to Ponyville.
By the time I make it back home my wings were sore and the sun was almost down. I land on the bridge and look around. Desire flows threw me like a fire and I trot towards the center. There are ponies all around and they all freeze when they see me. Fear and panic enter their eyes and I let the magic flow out of me. A red glow fills the air and envelops the ponies around me. Their screams stop and they freeze where they are. I smile. One by one my magic enters their ears and they turn and stand in rows in front of me. More and more ponies show up as my magic reaches them and brings them over. I stand up straighter and smile, flashing my blood stained fangs.
"Welcome to the slaughter." I growl at them.
