The Assistant: Silent Ponyville Part 5

(Not Proofread)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The smoke cleared and my eyes lost their irritation. I lower my jacket and look around the room. It was dark, so I pulled out my new flashlight and turned it on. I was shocked at the sudden room. It was empty except for a couple chairs in the middle. The floor was entirely grated and the walls were covered with blood. Ponies were hanging in the corners rapped in some sort of cloth.
“What is this!?”
My question was interrupted by the sound of loud footsteps mixed with the metal grating outside the room. I walk over to the door and try the knob. The door was tightly shut and I was unable to open it.
“Why won't this door open?”
I look around the room for something to break the door down. On the other side of the room sat an ax with a note attached. I quickly run over and grab the ax and note. I put the flashlight in my chest pocket and unattached the note from the ax. I slowly unfolded it.

One time use only!

I quickly understand what this means and run over to the door. I quickly began my work on the door. I bring the ax back and strike the door heavily. The ax only goes in about half an inch before stopping. I try again. I raise it over and behind my head and quickly bring it forward towards the door. I hear a satisfying crack as the ax breaks through. I continue destroying the door, each swing making the hole larger.

Finally the hole I made was wide enough to fit through. I stick my head through to see outside. It was the same thing as inside the room. The blood covered walls with hanging ponies. The grated floor and dark area. I slip through the hole with the ax in hand. Once I got both feet on the floor, the ax dispersed into black ash in my hands.

I hear a loud commotion down the hall way mixed with my radio giving off a soft static sound.
“PINKIE!?”
“ASSISTANT!! HELP!!”
I began running as fast as I could down hall towards Pinkie, dodging bodies of dead ponies on the floor.

I see the end of the hall with an open door. Inside I see Pinkie laying down and covering her face, while a tall pony wearing a black suit walking towards her. My radio intensifying as I get closer. I begin to yell at the monster.
“Hey!”
He turned his head towards me as I reach the doorway. I reach into my inside pocket and pull out my gun and aim it at the monster. The monster seemed to tilt his head at my action and turns back to Pinkie. I become furious at this and fire.

The bullet hits him and he jolts forward before stopping. He turns towards me and starts walking. I begin to unload the clip into his head. The bullets hit him and immediately turned to ash once they made contact. I become incredibly irritated that the gun isn't working. I slip it back into my coat and ready for an attack.

The monster suddenly stops. I watch as he turns back to Pinkie. The sound of Pinkie and my radio dimming to a slight static. Then I hear the siren. It is the same as the one I heard earlier. The monster lifts a hoof and reaches inside his jacket. He pulls out a box similar to the ones I have been opening. He places it in the middle of the room and walks to the doorway towards me. He stops in front of me. I look down at him as he stands there. He shifts his head to the left. I am knocked down on the floor to the left of him and out of his way. He then begins his walk down the hall until he was not visible. Then my flashlight began to dim and the darkness seemed to swallow me.
