Another Note: This is my very first story, EVER, it is in no way professional writing, and I believe I have no skill in writing. I just had an idea, and wanted to get it out there. It was a normal, beautiful day in Ponyville and the Cutie Mark Crusaders were hanging out in their tree house thinking of a new way to get their Cutie Marks. “How about cooking?” asked Applebloom “Already tried that Applebloom.. “ replied Scootaloo. “Well I’m plum outta ideas then!” Applebloom was getting frustrated. It has been a year since the Cutie Mark Crusaders was formed and the fillies have done just about everything they could think of. “Well, I’m gonna go to my sister’s and see if there’s anything she needs help with” Sweetie Belle headed down the ladder from the tree house. “Rainbow Dash said she was going to teach me some tricks today, I’m gonna go see if she is ready” Scootaloo hopped off of the platform and flew into the air; she had been practicing flying for a while now, and was getting pretty good at it. She attempted a backflip but halfway through a cramp started in her wing. “Ow!” she yelled. “Scootaloo!” Applebloom ran down the ladder. Scootaloo plummeted to the ground with a loud crack. Sweetie and Applebloom ran over to her “Are you okay Scoots?” Sweetie Belle asked. Scootaloo was lying on the ground, half unconscious and crying in pain, her wing, bent back in a gruesome manner. “Scootaloo!” Applebloom yelled “Are you awake?” Scootaloo attempted to stand up but the pain in her wing made her collapse back to the ground. “I…I think I broke my wing” sobbed Scootaloo. Sweetie Belle approached Scootaloo “Let me look at it, my sister has taught me a bit about injuries” “Oh..Okay” Scootaloo shifted herself to let Sweetie get a good look at her wing, even the mere movement made her shriek in pain. “Ooh.. this looks bad.. the bone is poking out” “Bone?!” screamed Scootaloo she completely broke down “This can’t be happening.. it can’t.. “ “Let me try something Scoots, I might be able to fix it” Sweetie Belle tried to bend Scootaloo’s wing back into place. “OW, that.. that hurts even more!” she shuddered in pain. “Sorry! Let’s try this way..” Sweetie bent her wing the other direction, but the bone snapped and her wing fell limp, attached by just a few piece of skin. At the sharp pain, Scootaloo passed out. “OH MY GOD! Sweetie, what did you do!?” Applebloom was freaking out. “I.. I didn’t mean to..” Applebloom was lying on the ground crying. Sweetie sat still, transfixed on Scootaloo’s limp wing. Something about it.. just.. made her want to see more.. more blood.. more bone. Sweetie Belle approached Scootaloo once again whom was still unconscious. “Wha..what are you doing now Sweetie?” Applebloom said through her sobs. “Turn around Applebloom..” “Why?” She asked. “JUST DO IT!” Sweetie yelled. At that, Applebloom burst into tears and turned away. Sweetie Belle grabbed Scootaloo’s wing with her mouth and tugged. It seemed like it would come off easy.. She tugged again and it snapped off easily. “Hrmph” Scootaloo stirred. Blood was seeping out from the hole in the side of Scootaloo, getting on Sweetie’s hoofs. Applebloom was still sobbing in the background. Sweetie Belle walked over to Applebloom and dropped the dismembered wing in front of her. “AHH! Is that… Scoot’s wing?!” Applebloom jumped away, revolted by the wing. “Yes, now help me get her up into the tree house” “But shouldn’t we go ask for help?” Applebloom was dazed.. all this going on.. it happened to fast. “There’s no one around that can help from here, let’s make her comfortable. Now help me get her into the tree house.” Sweetie and Applebloom dragged Scootaloo into the tree house and laid her down on a rug. Scootaloo was regaining consciousness, Applebloom was laying down next to her, trying to comfort her. “What’s going on?” Asked Scootaloo. “We brought you up into the tree house… your.. your wing..” Scootaloo felt a warm sensation on her side, she looked over “What the! OH MY GOD, MY WING!” Scootaloo broke into tears. “What happened!” “I..I don’t know Scoots.. I don’t know..” Applebloom hugged Scootaloo “Everything is gonna be okay..” CRACK! The last thing Applebloom and Scootaloo could remember was a burning sensation and their heads colliding. Then everything went black. While the two were knocked out, Sweetie had work to do. The sight of Scootaloo’s blood had opened a new part in Sweetie Belles brain. She had a love for bloodlust she never knew before. Sweetie had grabbed a rope and began tying Scootaloo and Applebloom to a pole in the tree house. Both had large cuts in their heads from where Sweetie’s hooves cracked their skulls. Once they were tied up to the wall Sweetie got started with her fun. She took a knife she had found in the Everfree Forest on one of their journeys and started to cut into Applebloom’s ear. The knife was dull and rusty so it didn’t cut very well, but it was working nonetheless. Sweetie was sawing at her ear, slowly but surely slicing it off. Blood trickled from where it was starting to come apart. After a couple minutes the ear was dangling by an inch of skin, Sweetie grabbed in by her mouth, and tore it off. But she also tore a long piece of skin from Applebloom’s ear to the side of her mouth. The hole where her ear used to be was gushing blood, staining the ground below it. Sweetie bent over and licked up some of the blood. She liked the taste of it, and she wanted more. Applebloom started to stir, but another hoof to the head fixed that. Sweetie had thought that the knife took too long to cut, so she was going to try the other ear a different way. She bit the tip of Applebloom’s other ear and attempted to rip it off will all of her force. But being a filly, she didn’t have a lot. The ear partially came off and was dangling by a piece of skin on Applebloom’s cheek. Sweetie didn’t want to have to go through the trouble of getting it off, so she left it there and moved over to Scootaloo. Overlooking Scootaloo’s side where her wing used to be, a thought came to Sweetie’s mind… what would the inside of Scootaloo taste like? Sweetie felt around Scootaloo’s stomach looking for a week spot, but there didn’t seem to be one. She decided it would be easier to get in if those bones weren’t in the way. Sweetie turned around and aimed a full force buck right at Scootaloo’s stomach. She heard a loud crack! And the sound of blood dripping. She turned around to see that she had missed her stomach and had gotten her in the face. Her nose was broken and her jaw was limp. Sweetie turned around once again and bucked at Scootaloo’s stomach. This time it as a dead hit, she heard another crack and Scootaloo’s ribs cracked like twigs. Sweetie turn around to look at Scootaloo and what she saw.. was beautiful. Not only had she broken her ribs, but blood and stomach fluid was dripping out of her mouth. Applebloom started to stir again, Sweetie thought Applebloom should watch what was happening, she thought it would be more fun. Before Applebloom woke up completely, Sweetie put a gag on Applebloom to keep her from screaming. Sweetie got back to work on Scootaloo; she untied her and laid her down on the ground. It would be easier to work from here. “Hmph” Applebloom made a noise as she woke. She was dazed, but opened her eyes and saw her best friends. Sweetie was standing over the lifeless body of Scootaloo. Applebloom’s eyes were wide-open with terror. What was going on? Sweetie saw that Applebloom was fully conscious “Like what you see Applebloom? I know I do.. I hope you don’t mind, I stole one of your ears.. and the other.. well I think you can tell.”. Applebloom saw her intact ear hanging in the side of her view, she struggled to scream, but just couldn’t with the gag on. “But I’m done with you for now, It’s Scoots turn” Sweetie turned to Scootaloo and picked up her knife. She started humming the Cutie Mark Crusader’s theme song and got to work on cutting open Scootaloo’s disfigured stomach. After a while of hacking and slicing, Scootaloo’s stomach was torn open. The exposed organs wreaked, the room filled with the scent of blood. Sweetie had thought Scootaloo was dead, but even after all the blood-loss, Scootaloo still twitched and moved around as her organs were prodded. Sweetie saw that Scootaloo’s eyes were starting to open. “Good morning, Scoots!” she smiled, blood stains on her teeth. “Ugh what’s going on Sweetie??” Scootaloo’s limp jaw throbbed as she talkedd “Oh, nothing.. just.. rearranging some things” Sweetie chuckled. “What do you mean… rearranging..?” Scootaloo was starting to panic. “Look for yourself” Sweetie pointed her hoof at Scootaloo’s gaping stomach. “My stomach! Why are you doing this?!” Scootaloo tried to move, but she was paralyzed from the neck down. “Why can’t I move!”. “Why am I doing this? Because I can and because I like it.” “But for why you can’t move, I don’t know.” Sweetie could see Scootaloo’s lungs expanding with terror. “I wonder if this works like a balloon?” Sweetie slammed her hoof into Scootaloo’s chest, making the expanded lung pop. “Knew it!” Scootaloo was gasping for air, one lung was hard to breathe with. “Sweetie..*gasp* Just kill me..*gasp* it’s too much *gasp* to bear..” Scootaloo was about to pass out from a combination of blood loss and lack of air. “Why would I do that Scoots? The more you suffer, the more I like it!” “You..you bitch!” Scootaloo used all of her might to yell at Sweetie. “No one.. calls me a bitch.” Sweetie Belle slammed her hoof into the side of Scootaloo’s skull making yet another loud crack! Applebloom stirred once more, but Sweetie didn’t notice. She awoke to the horrid sight of blood and dismembered organs. Most of Scootaloo’s organs were laid out on the ground next to her. Her stomach, liver, kidneys and intestines were strewn across the ground, all seeping bodily fluids. Applebloom gagged at the smell in the room. Sweetie saw Applebloom’s eyes open, Applebloom shut them as quick as she could, but it was too late. “Morning sleepy-head, you’ve missed a lot.” Sweetie bent over and took a bite of Scootaloo’s stomach “I was just enjoying a snack, do you want some?”. Applebloom shook her head, a tear running down her cheek. Why was her best friend doing this? Sweetie Belle was always nice. “Well, I don’t want you to starve, that’s not fun enough.” Sweetie bit off another piece of Scootaloo’s stomach and carried to over to Applebloom. “Try some.” Sweetie took the gag off of Applebloom. She shook her head once again. “I said TRY SOME!” Sweetie force the chunk of organ into Applebloom’s mouth. She chewed it and swallowed, the taste was horrid.. the acid burned. “Like it? I really did, it reminded me of gum, very chewy.” Applebloom couldn’t stand the feeling; she threw up, right on Sweetie Belle. “Oh my god, I’m sorry Sweetie Belle, I really am! Whatever I did, I’m sorry!” Applebloom was sobbing, she felt dead inside. “You WILL be sorry, now shut up!” Sweetie put the gag back on Applebloom. “I’m feeling nice right, now, so you get to stay awake and watch.” Sweetie walked back over to Scootaloo. “What to do next…” She looked at her friends body, her dark orange coat was matted with blood and pieces of skin, the stomach, wide open. Her faint beating heart was visible, there wasn’t much left inside of her. Sweetie decided to sit back and wait for Scootaloo to wake, she had had her fun. She was ready to finish this. After about an hour, Scootaloo stirred once more, waking up to the throbbing pain in her whole body, but she felt empty. “Hrmh..oh..Hi Sweetie Belle, what’s going on?” Scootaloo’s blood loss was affecting her thinking, she didn’t remember what was happening. “Welcome to your death bed, Scoots” It all came rushing back to Scootaloo, the pain and torture she went through for no reason. “Sweetie! I hope..i hope you burn in hell! YOU DESERVE TO DIE YOU STUPID BI-“ Sweetie Belle put her hoof over Scootaloo’s mouth. “Hush.. Scoots, be quiet” Sweetie removed her hoof from her mouth. “Any last words Scootaloo? Your time in Equestria has ended.” Applebloom was swelling up with tears, she couldn’t believe what was happening. “Just one thing Sweetie. We will never stop the journey, not until we get our Cutie Marks!” With that, Scootaloo used all the energy left in her, which wasn’t much, to jump up and hit Sweetie Belle. But all she managed to do was flip forward with a complete miss. “Shameful Scoots, I thought you were better than that.” Sweetie put her hoof on the side of Scootaloo’s head. “Good night, Scoots.” She pressed down with all her might, slowly crushing Scootaloo’s skull, the brain matter and fluid gushing out of her eyes. It was done, her hearts had stopped beating, Scootaloo, was dead. Applebloom screamed, Sweetie could even hear it through the gag. Applebloom nodded towards Scootaloo’s flank. Without fully comprehending what she saw, she looked, and saw a Cutie Mark.. a lion, on Scootaloo’s flank. A lion for courage, courage to stand up against those who stood in her way, the courage to survive until the very end. Scootaloo’s journey had ended, with a Cutie Mark. For the first time that day, Sweetie Belle broke down into tears, at the realization of what she just did. In a mere 5 hours, she had killed her best friend, and tortured her other. Her life was over, there was nothing she could do.
