> Ticci Toby in Equestria > by IntentWings31 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Portal > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- A boy walked down a dirt path in a dark forest. He didn't know how he got there, all he remembers is him seeing a very tall "man" in a suit and the next thing he knew he woke up in this forest. The boy knew about the legend of the Slenderman, but he knew it was just that, a legend. It was just a coincidences that he woke up in a forest after seeing a strange tall man, that was what he thought until he saw something white out of the corner of his eye. The boy turned to see what it was to see a piece of paper nailed to a tree. He walked up to it and took it off the tree so he could read it. DON"T LOOK OR IT TAKES YOU "Nonononononono! This has to be some kind of sick joke." The boy said, beginning to get very scared, but still denying that this is real. "It's more of a game really." A voice said from behind him. "AHHH!!!!" The boy screamed and turned around quickly, startled by the voice. When he turned around he saw a boy about his age wearing dirty jeans, a light brown hoodie with darker brown striped sleeves and a blue hood, a belt holding two bloody axes' on his side with one looking older than the other, orange tinted goggles, black gloves, and a bandanna around his mouth that looks like a sick and twisted smile."W-Who are you?" He asked cautiously, ready to run at a moments notice. "Name's Toby, but some people call me Ticcy-Toby, but they don't live very long." Toby said while patting on one of his axes'. "W-What do you want?" The boy asked. "Oh, I don't want anything. My boss just told me to distract you before you could get anymore of his pages." Toby said, noticing Slender was right behind the boy. "Wait, wha-" Before the boy could finish, a black tendril wrapped around his mouth and the rest of his body like a cocoon. Slender slowly started to squeeze the life out of the boy until he was finally dead. Slender opened his tendrils to reveal that the body was gone. "How do you even do that? Do ya s-squeeze them out of existence or something" Toby asked twitching a bit due to his turrets. 'It is how I feed, that is all you need to know.' Slender replied telepathically before turning around. 'don't forget to put the note back up.' and with that he left. Toby sighed loudly as he suddenly started to feel angry. He knew it was his bipolar getting to him so he decided to let out some anger. He growled. "Why am I the one who always has to put up these FUCKING notes!" He exclaimed. He stomped on over to a tree and raised a fist to punch it. "AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" He yelled as he punched the tree, leaving a dent in it. But Toby didn't yell in pain, no, he couldn't feel pain. It was one of his many disorders, congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) is what his doctors call it. "Geez! What did that tree ever do to you?" He heard someone say from behind him. Toby turned around to see two people standing behind him. "W-Well if it isn't the lovely couple Masky and Hoodie! What brings you to this neck of the woods?" He teased, walking over and wrapping his arms around there necks, smiling. The two glared at him. "For the last time! We're not a couple! We're partners!" Masky said with Hoodie nodding in agreement. "Same thing." Toby said as he let them go. He walks over to the page and snached it off the ground. He spun around to face them. "So, tell Uncle Toby what you and your oh so original names want." He said, still in a playful mood. "Ok, for one, we're a lot older then you, two, stop making fun of our names, and three, we're here because we found something weird in the forest and we want to show you it." Masky said, holding out one finger for each number. "Weirder then shit we've seen" Toby asked, crossing his arms. Masky was about to say yes until he remembered all the weird stuff that they've seen. "Well...no, but its pretty odd." "Fine." Toby said as he went to the tree with the nail in it, pulled the nail out and used the back of one of his axes as a hammer to nail the page back on. He turned and walked to them as he strapped his axe pack on his hip. "Ok, lets go." He said as he motioned them to lead the way. One 15 minute long walk later the three proxies approached a small clearing. "Its over there." Masky said pointing to a strange purple glowing oval just floating an inch off the ground. "looks like a portal or something." He added as he and Hoodie lead Toby towards it. "Well shit! you guys weren't kidding. Have you told Slender yet?" Toby asked as he approached the portal and inspected it closely. "No. What would Slender do with a portal anyway?" Masky asked "Good point." Toby said. He looked at the portal and held out a finger to poke it. When his finger touched the portal it rippled like water. "Hmmmm?" He hummed, listening to the sound it made. He went to pull his finger out, but found that it was stuck. He was confused so he pushed it a little further in with ease and pulled as hard as he could to try and get it out, but found that it wouldn't budge. He felt something pull on his finger, pulling him elbow deep now."Guys? A little help?!" He yelled. Masky and Hoodie both turned to Toby to see his arm stuck in the portal. "What the hell did you do!" Masky yelled as he and Hoodie ran over to help pull. "I hardly touched it I swear!" Toby tried to explain while panicking. "Just shut up and pull!" Hoodie demanded in his deep demonic voice, which is also why he doesn't talk much. "Jesus! Thats what he sounds like!?" Toby asked. "Now you know why I do most of the talking. Now stop talking and focus!" Masky yelled. "Guys its starting to get-" Toby never got to finish as Masky and Hoodie lost their grip causing them to fall backwards and Toby to fall into the portal. They got up off the ground and dusted themselves off. Hoodie looked at the portal with determination as he walked towards it until Masky grabbed his shoulder. "What are you doing?! You're not actually going after him are you?!" He asked. "Would you rather take your chances with the portal or take your chances telling Slender that we probably killed one of his proxies?" Hoodie asked Masky stood there for a couple of seconds thinking, then quickly yelled "Last one though is a rotting corpse!" and doing a dive through the portal. Hoodie smirked and stepped through the portal as it closed behind him. IN EQUESTRIA (30 minutes ago) Five ponies with their own special things to help their friend Twilight Sparkle feel more at home were running around her castle singing and decorating. there was one specific mare that was popping up in random places throughout the castle hiding confetti cannons everywhere. Pinkie Pie poked her head out of a bookshelf, knocking some books off in the process. she looked down to see that she was above the machine Twilight used to open the mirror portal. "*gasp* Thats perfect!" She exclaimed, jumping down next to the wooden tank that is attached to the machine. she climbed to the top of it and lifted the metal top a bit and got a huge confetti cannon out of her mane and placed it inside. She closed it and hopped back in the bookshelf where she came from, knocking over more books, but one book that Twilight got from the human world hit the book connected with the machine and knocking it off and taking its place while the book that use to be connected with the machine fell on the ON switch. The machine roared to life, and the portal opened, but not to the same place as before. Now it was open in wherever the book that was titled 'CreepyPasta' was connected to. (29 minutes later) "AAAAAHHHHHHH-UHHH! stronger." Toby finishes his sentence after he lands on a very hard floor. He gets up and looks around to see the entire room is made out of some kind of crystal. He turned around and sees the portal he came out of. "Thank God! There's a way back." He was about to walk back through it until a certain masked man is sent flying into Toby, sending him flying across the room. When they landed Masky looked around and straightened his mask. "Wow! That was a much softer landing than I expected" He said "Just because I can't feel pain doesn't mean I like having my ribs broken by your fat ass! Now get off!" Toby yelled at Masky. "Huh?" Masky looked under him and saw Toby. "Oh shit! Toby!" He got off Toby and helped him up. "You OK?" He asked. "Considering who your talking to, what do you think." Toby said. *THUD* They turned around to see Hoodie getting up and rubbing his head. He noticed the two looking at him so he walked to them. "You OK?" Masky asked. Hoodie nodded "Good!" Toby said "Now lets just get back to the-" *POOOOOOOT* *ZZZZZTTTZZ* *BOOM* The group turns around to see that the portal had blown up and confetti slowly falling around it. "...portal......AWWW FOR FUCK SAKE!!!!" Toby screamed in frustration. "Toby! Quiet! Someone might hear you." Masky yelled in a hushed tone. "I hope they do!" Toby exclaimed, taking out both his axes. Hoodie and Masky took a step back. "Cause if they find me I can relieve some of my anger!" Just after he said that they could hear several people running in there direction. "Speaking of." He said as he turned to face the doorway with his axes ready. Six colorful ponies came running in the room. They all stopped dead in their tracks as soon as they caught sight of the three strange humans. Pinkie looked over to the mirror and noticed all the confetti around it. "OOOOHHHHHHH! That's where I hide the last confetti cannon!" She exclaimed. Toby was confused, but still angry. "Is this s-some kind of fucking joke! A bunch of talking mutated horses! Seriously!?" "Hey buddy! Who you callin a horse!" Rainbow Dash said as she hovered in the air. "Awww isn't that cute? The gay one wants to act tough." Toby taunted. Rainbow blushed a little. "I'm not gay!" "Says the gay horse with a pride flag on her head and ass!" Toby retorted. Rainbow Dash couldn't take anymore and flew as fast as she could strait at Toby's head and buck him as hard as she could in the jaw making him stumble back a bit. "That'll teach ya to not to mess with-" "Hehehehehehehe Hahahahahahahaha!" Toby laughed as he grabbed his jaw and forced it back into place with a loud sickening crack that echoed through the entire castle. "Your right, your not gay." Toby said without any emotion. "You're dead." TO BE CONTINUED > The More, The Creepier > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Toby was furious. He adjusted his crooked bandanna and started charging towards Dash at full speed. She tried to dodge But was grabbed by the tail and slammed against the crystal floor back first. She could hear her friends call out her name. As she laid there groaning with her eyes closed and teeth clenched. She felt pressure on her chest. She opened her eyes and saw Toby standing over her with his foot pressed against her chest, holding her down. He looked down, but instead of Dash, he saw a very familiar man's corpse covered in blood and stab wounds. He looked up to see he was not in the crystal room anymore, but in his old dining room. He heard a scream from behind him and turned around to see his a woman. Why did this all seem so familiar to him. Then all at once he remembered. This was the day he killed his father. He grabbed his head to try and get rid of the memory of his past. He began to feel dizzy and the room began to spin around him as he stumbled back and fell to his knees. He closed his eyes and when he opened them again he was back in the crystal room. Everyone watched as Toby was acting like he was seeing something that they couldn't. Almost as if he was somewhere else entirely. Masky and Hoodie ran to Toby, who was starting to sweat and breath heavily. Masky knelt down and put a hand on Toby's shoulder. "Toby. What happen?" He asked to try and calm him down. "S-S-S-She s-saw me k-kill him. T-The way she l-l-looked at m-me. W-W-Why d-did she h-have to see." Toby said. Back On Earth, Slender's Forest Slendeman was teleporting all throughout the forest trying to find where his proxies disappeared to. He made sure to have a telepathic connection to them so he will know where they are at all times. They were in one of Hoodie and Masky's clearings in the forest and then one by one they just disappeared. He has already searched the entire forest and couldn't find a single trace of them. He went to the clearing where they last were to see if he had missed anything. When he got there he saw someone standing at the opposite edge of the clearing looking around. He had a bloody white hoodie with black pants and long messy black hair and carrying a whisky bottle. Slenderman knew this person very well. It was Jeff the Killer. Slender felt pure rage at the thought of Jeff doing something to his proxies. He teleported in front of Jeff and rapped a tendril around him before he had time to react. 'JEFF!'He screamed in Jeff's head. Jeff looked up at Slender with surprise. "Huh, so it finally talks." Jeff Sneered and looked at Slenders right arm. "I see your arm grew back nicely, such a shame. I was hoping it wouldn't grow back. So, do you mind putting me the fuck down, or will I have to burn down another forest." He said in an irritated tone. Slender slammed Jeff against a tree, leaving a huge dent in it and almost knocking it over. 'WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY PROXIES!' Jeff recovered from the pain quickly and replied. "What the fuck are you talking about!" 'Jeff, I can make your life an unimaginable hell. NOW TELL ME WHERE THEY ARE!' Slender said in a dark tone then went back to screaming. "I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL YOUR-" Jeff cut himself off as he suddenly realized something. "OH yeah, I heard about these three weirdos that always hang out in this forest. They're yours?" He asked. 'Yes, and the last place they were was right here and then they just vanish! I come here and find YOU here! That gives me reason to beleive that YOU did something!' Slender said "Listen Slendy, I wasn't even here at the same time they were. I was to busy running from-" Jeff tried to explain but was cut off. "JEFF!" A female voice yelled. They both look to were Jeff entered to see a girl with paper white skin with black hair, eyes, lips, and clothing holding two extra large kitchen knives. "...Jane." Jeff finished. Jane turned towards Jeff and walked up to him, completely ignoring Slender. "There you are. Now listen up. Just because I get to your next victims house first and are about to kill them DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN JUMP THREW THE FUCKING WINDOW AND TACKLE ME LIKE THAT! SERIOUSLY! WHAT THE FUCK!" "I'm tired of you always stealing my kills!" Jeff responded. "And you think that-" Jane was cut off as the group heard someone clear there throat from behind them they looked to see who it was. Slender recognized her immediately. It was a girl about Toby's age with a pale skin tone, long messy brown hair. She wore a white tank top under an unzipped blue jacket with gray jeans and black fingerless gloves. Her most notable feature was her face. She had a cut in smile like Jeff, but it had stitches running along the cuts. Her left eye was replaced with what looked like the clock of a small pocket watch. Jeff chuckled as he looked at the girl. "I like the face. Might want to lose the stitches though." Jeff said. He looked at Slenderman. "Hey stretch, mind putting me the fuck down now?" Slenderman looked at Jeff and promptly slammed him to the ground hard, still holding on to him. 'There I let you down.' he said. Jeff glared up at Slenderman. "So the over grown twig has jokes now. You knew what I meant fucker!" "Oh shut it Jeffery." Jane said. "You deserve it after the things you've done." Jane then turned her attention back to the girl. "Who are you?" She asked. "Just call me Clockwork." Clockwork replied. She turned to Slenderman. "Um, Slenderman, have you seen Toby anywhere? I can't find him. The only thing I found is this creepy dog that keeps following me around." She stepped to the side to reveal a husky sitting down with a giant, almost human smile. "Smile?!" Jeff exclaimed in surprise. "I told you to stay at the house!" Jeff yelled. Smile Dog's ears flattened against his head as he looked down and wined. Jane raised an eye brow at Jeff and asked. "Where in the hell did you get a dog like that." "Well" Jeff began. "I found a picture of him, then a couple days later he just showed up and started following me. I liked how he looked so I kept him. OH! And watch this. Smile!" Smile's ears perked back up and he looked at Jeff. "Spread the word." Jeff told Smile. Everyone watched as Smile Dog's fur turned red as his eyes began to glow and the black fur on his head and back grew into long black hair. It almost looked like someone ripped his skin off leaving only muscle and hair. Jeff began to laugh. "HAHAHA! Good boy. Now back to normal." Jeff told Smile. Just as Jeff commanded Smile changed back. "Anyway." Clockwork said looking back to Slender. "So, have you seen him." Slender looked at her. 'Clockwork, do not panic, but Toby, Hoodie, and Masky are missing' Clockworks eyes widened. "W-Wha- Missing!? They couldn't have just disappeared!" She exclaimed. 'Sadly they did. I have been trying to-' Slender was cut off as he started to hear a voice. S-S-S-She s-saw me k-kill him. T-The way she l-l-looked at m-me. W-W-Why d-did she h-have to see. It was Toby's voice. Toby was remembering. Slender let go of Jeff and started to follow the voice. He walked to the middle of the clearing and stopped. He stood there for a minute. He felt a strange energy. Slender knew this kind of energy. It was the energy left behind from a portal. He consumed the energy to try and use it to create another portal. He concentrated on forming the portal. As he did this the portal slowly started to fade into existence. Once he was finished he turned around to the group of Killers. 'I think I might have found where my Proxies have gone. Stay here.' And with that said he turned and walked into the portal. "Hang on! I'm coming too!" Clockwork yelled as she ran through the portal after Slender. Smile Dog barked and ran after Clockwork. "Hey! No Smile! Bad dog!" Jeff yelled as he chased after Smile. "I'm not letting you get away that easily Jeffery." Jane mumbled before running through the portal after Jeff. The portal was not able to keep stable after five entities have entered and collapsed in on itself. > Uninvited Guests > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Masky was starting to worry about Toby, He has never seen Toby act like that before. He tried to calm him down before he did something that would not end well for the three killers. Toby was already unpredictable and Masky did not want to now what he is like when he is emotionally unstable. "Toby just calm down and tell me what happened." He said slowly. "No." Toby whispered. "No. NO! NO!" He started to yell. "JUST GET IT OUT! GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD! I DON'T WANT TO REMEMBER! JUST GET IT THE FUCK OUT!!" Toby started to scream and pound on his head, trying anything to get rid of the horrible memory. "Toby." Masky said. "Toby stop! Toby! Tob-" Masky was interrupted by Hoodie as he pushed him to the side and grabbed Toby by his jacket and pulled him up. Hoodie looked him strait in the eyes and then punched him in the face as hard as he could. "SNAP OUT OF IT!!!!!" Hoodie screamed in his demonic voice causing the ponies to jump and Fluttershy to hide behind Twilight and silently whimper. The whole room fell to a dead silence as Toby just stared back at Hoodie. "Better?" Hoodie asked. "Better." Toby replied as Hoodie let go of his jacket. "Well that escalated quickly." Pinkie said. Toby turned around and looked directly at Pinkie. "Shut up. I don't w-want to here from the thing that was d-dumb enough to put a fucking cannon in a machine that can apparently make portals to another dimension." He said "It was a confetti cannon, not a 'fucking' cannon. Whats a Fucking Cannon anyway? Is it like a Party Cannon? I Have a Party Cannon!" Pinkie reached behind herself and pull her Party Cannon out of nowhere and jumped on top of it. "I never leave home without- Hmmm Mmmnn Mmmhmm Hmm." Pinkie was silenced as Applejack put a hoof in her mouth. "Okay, listen here partner, ah don't know what in the hay is happen'en, an yer all probably just as confused. So way don't we all just simmer down an start over." Applejack suggested. "............Did she just pull that thing out of her ass?!" Toby exclaimed. Masky facepalms and sighs. "He means yes." He said "Good." Applejack said as she removed her hoof from Pinkies mouth. "Then I was like 'oatmeal?! Are you crazy?!' Hahahahhahaha *snort*" "Um, anyway, Y'all are humans. Right? "Well technically me and Masky over here are, but Hoodie is..." Toby turned around to get a look at hoodie who currently messing with his video camera that he keeps in his pocket, then turned back to the ponies. "... Hoddie. And judging by the way little miss Skittles reacted I'm assuming your not horses." "Skittles?" Rainbow Dash mumbled in confusion. Twilight stepped forward. "No. We are not horses. We are Ponies, well Pinkie is more considered..." She looked at Pinkie and watched as she stuffed her whole Party Cannon in her mane and turned back to Toby. "...Pinkie." "Is anybody else going to question that!" Toby exclaimed while pointing to Pinkie. "I mean seriously, guys your with me on this right?" He asked. "Toby, we stopped questioning things a long time ago. Get over it. Now step aside and let me do the talking before you say something stupid...again." Masky said and pushed Toby aside to stand in his place. "Ahem. Anyway, now that we got that out of the way lets move on to names. I'm Masky. I'm the one who keeps things in order and makes sure Toby doesn't end up getting killed." He said as he put a hand to his chest. "Over there is Hoodie. He's the silent but deadly one." He pointed to Hoodie who looked up from his camera and nodded. Both Rainbow Dash and Toby snickered at hearing the 'silent but deadly part. "And the rude one over here is Toby. He's basically the one who does all the dirty work." He pointed to Toby who replied with giving him the finger. "And you are?" "Well, My name Is Twilight Sparkle, and these are my friends Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and... Um. Where's Fluttershy?" Pinkie raised a hoof much like a school filly would. " Oh oh oh oh, me! Pick me!" Twilight sighed. "Yes Pinkie." Pinkie put her hoof down. "She said she had to go check on her animals! She seemed in a BIG hurry to go too!" Twilight sighed again. "Rainbow. Will you please go make sure Fluttershy's okay. She must be scared senseless." "Yea. We do have that affect on people. Heck, you should see the guy we work for." Toby said. Rainbow Dash flew up in the air and saluted. "I'm on it!" She exclaimed before zipping out the door. Twilight turned back to Toby. "Um, Toby? May I ask you something." "Depends." He said as he finally holstered his axes back to his sides. "On what?" Twilight asked. "On whether it pisses me off or not." He said "Well its about those two hatchets you have. Why are they covered in what looks like blood stains? What were you doing before you got here?" She asked. Toby looked down at his axes then looked back to Twilight. "Relieving s-some stress." He answered. "Okay, but that doesn't answer the first question." "If you th-think about it, it kinda does. Here, let me ask you something. Have you e-ever been so mad that you just wanted t-to hit something?" Toby said. "Everypony has at one point or another, so yes, yes I have." She replied. "Now imagine s-someone that angry or e-even angrier with two axes and these v-voices in your head n-nagging you, getting louder and l-louder, more impatient the m-more you try t-to ignore them u-until finally... you listen." Toby said. Sounding more aggressive and mad the more he went on until he said the last two words normally. "Um" Twilight gulped. "What do the voices say?" "Kill." Toby said in a calm and relaxed tone. Almost as is the word alone brought him comfort. The ponies stared wide eyed at Tody. "Your not saying that you actually, you know-" "Kill people." Toby interrupted. "Yes I do. Its an amazing stress reliever. Especially if you have nothing to loose." "Toby, shut the fuck up." Masky told him. The room went silent for a minute. Until A door flashed into existence. Everyones attention was moved to the door. It opened and and an odd looking creature with mismatched animal parts came walking through the door while whistling. It's eyes were closed as he strolled on in and the door vanished behind him. He opened his eyes and froze mid step and stopped whistling when he noticed everyone looking at him. He took a normal standing position and looked at the humans then the ponies. "Oh I'm sorry. Am I interrupting something?" Discord asked with his playful grin. "Discord, What are you doing here?" Twilight asked in a irritated tone. "What? I was just popping by to say hi to my dear friends." He said innocently as a halo appeared on his head. Twilight simply glared at him. "Fine." Discord sighed as the halo disappeared. "I sensed some chaos coming from here and I wasn't invited, so I just came to join in on the fun." "The hell are you supposed to be?" Toby asked. Discord turned to the humans. "Oh! My apologies. I forgot to introduces myself. I'm Discord, God of Chaos." Tody chuckled. "A God of Chaos, huh." He looked the Draconequus up and down. "Am I supposed to be impressed." "Hey! Now there's no need to be rude." Discord told Toby. Toby was about to reply with one of his smart-alick remarks when he started to hear drums. He knew what the drums meant. He turned towards Hoodie and Masky. "Um, guys? do you-" "Yes. Come on we gotta go." Masky interrupted. They all nodded and ran passed the ponies that were still at the doorway. Leaving all the ponies completely confused. Slenderman stepped out of the portal and noticed he was still deep in a forest, but this wasn't his forest. This forest had a strange magic around blocking his signal to his proxies. He teleported somewhere at the edge of the forest to see if he can find there signal. Clockwork came tumbling out of the portal shortly after. As she got up and dusted herself off she looked around. "Slenderman! Toby! Anyone!" She yelled. After not getting a response she decided to go in the direction she thinks Slender might have gone. After Clockwork was out of sight Smile came running out then stopped as he looked around in confusion. He heard the rustling of bushes beside him. He turned to look at what is was and saw a squirrel hop out. Smile growled making the squirrel look at him then run away with Smile following close behind. Shortly after Smile left Jeff was thrown out of the portal and slid a couple of feet on his back before finally stopping. He checked his pockets as he was laying on the ground and noticed something missing. "Where the fuck is my knife?" He asked himself. As if to answer the portal shot out his knife and stuck itself in the ground right beside his head. He pulled the knife out of the ground and sat up chuckling. "That was close." He heard barking in the distance and stood up. "That dog is in so much trouble." He said before running to where he heard the barking. Lastly Jane came out of the portal stumbling dizzily. She shook the dizziness off and looked around for any signs of Jeff. As she looked around she heard a weird noise coming from behind her. She turned around to see the portal glowing brighter and brighter and then it just vanished. "Oh come on! You gotta be fucking kidding me!" She exclaimed angrily. "I blame Jeff." > Family Reunion > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the back seat of a car driving down the road there was a blond teenage girl looking out the window with a bored look. She wore a light green T-shirt, blue skinny jeans, and wore a gold lyre necklace. Next to her was a teenage boy with short brown hair. He wore a black sweat shirt and baggy denim jeans. Lyra felt a strange sense of deja vu. She looked over to her brother Toby to see if she could try and brake the silence but couldn't think of anything to say. She turned back around and fiddled with her necklace. She was very talented at playing the lyre. Her friend always joked about how ironic her name was. She loved playing it, expesily for her brother. It always made him feel a little better whenever he felt depressed. She was shook out of her thoughts by a strange feeling in the back of her mind telling her to look forward. As she turned her head to look out the front windshield she saw a truck coming straight for the car. She screamed. "AHHHHHHHH!" Lyra Heartstrings screamed as she woke up covered in sweat. She through the covers off and looked down. She was met with her normal pony self. She sighed in relief. Hooves steps could be heard running up the stairs to her room. "Lyra!?" Bonbon exclaimed in worry as she came bursting through the door. "I'm fine. I'm fine. I just had the dream again." Lyra said to her best friend. Bonbon groaned. "Again?!" She exclaimed. "Seiriously Lyra, I really think you should see someone about this Human thing. I'm getting worried." "I'm fine, Bon." Lyra tried to reassure her. "It just felt so real, like... like a memory of a past life or something." "Okay, now your talking crazy. You've been reading too many books." Bonbon said. Lyra just rolled her eyes and got out of bed. "I have not." She said as she walked past Bonbon and out the bedroom door with Bonbon close behind. "I just need some fresh air." "At three in the morning?" Bonbon asked. Lyra picked up her lyre and turned to her friend. "Yes. I'm just going to play my lyre and try to relax. I'll be back in a couple minutes." She said before walking out the front door and towards her favorite bench. "We've been w-walking around for hours and haven't seen any sign of Slender." Toby complained. Masky sighed in annoyance "Then what do you suppose we do then." "We could find one of them pony things and force it to tell us were the nearest forest is." He suggested. "Yea, that'll go just great." Masky said sarcastically. "Fine. Lets hear your plan, smartass." Toby said. "How about we just split up and look. It will be alot faster and a lot less irritating." Masky said and looked at Toby. "Ohhh. I get it. you two want some alone time. Hahahahaha!" Toby laughed as he walk a different direction. "Have fun. Hahahaha!" "He is so lucky he can't feel pain." Masky said as he clenched his fists. "Little shits telling me were t-to go when they don't even know were the fuck there going." Toby said as he walked. He moved his goggles above his eyes so he could see better and pulled down his bandana. He only ever did this when he was alone. He came to a hult when he heard a fimiliar sound. Flash Back Toby was laying in his bed staring at the ceiling. He heard hid door open and turned to see Lyra. "Hey Toby." She said as she walked in, lyre in hand. "Hope I'm not bothering you." "No. Your fine." He said dully. "So w-what do you want." "Just wanted to come and try and cheer you up a little." She said as she sat down on the foot of Toby's bad and started playing her lyre. End Flash Back Toby's eyes widened. "Lyra?" He whispered. He bolted in the direction of the music. He knew his sister was dead and it would be impossible for her to be alive, but he's seen a lot of impossible things after being taken in by Slenderman. As he got closer he felt more hope that his sister was alive. The music he was hearing was the exact same tune that she would play to him. When he turned a corner and found the souce of the music his hopes were shattered in a million peices. In the distance instead of his sister there was a mint-green unicorn playing a gold lyre that looked just like his sisters necklace. It was sitting in a way that a human would with its eyes closed in relaxation. Toby suddenly felt extream anger towards this pony.The pony that made him believe that Lyra was still alive only to shatter every bit of hope he had. He slowly grabbed his axes. He just wanted to forget his life, but this pony had to remind him of the only person her truly cared about. He titened his grip on his axes and clenched his teeth in pure anger. An image of Lyra's mangled corpes flashed across his vision for a second and he charged. As Lyra was playing she heard something and opened her eyes to see what it was, only to be tackled off her bench moments later. She looked up to see who tackled her only to see the same boy she seen in her dreams. He had a look of rage, but had tears running down his face. He raise two axes in the air and was about to strike. Memories from a life she should not remember living flooded her mind. "Toby?" Toby froze. That voice. That was Lyra's voice. And she knew who he was. Toby dropped the axes and stared at the pony. he blinked and found himself stareing at his beloved sister. "L-Lyra?" He blinked again and he saw the pony once again. "B-but your-" "A pony?" Lyra finished. "I know. I was born a pony, but I was also born a human. Wow, this is confusing. It's like I have two lives crambed into one head." "Y-your alive." Toby said. "Yea, I guess that's what being reborn does to a- OOF!" She was interrupted be Toby grabbing her into a hug. She could already feel her fur getting stained with tears. Lyra hugged back. Lyra heard something coming towards them and looked up to see Bonbon rocketing strait for Toby. She didn't have tiem to react as Bonbon bucked him right in the temple causing him to fly into the bench and shatering it. Bonbon walked up to a completely shocked Lyra. "Lyra! Are you okay? Did that creature hurt y- BAM!" Lyra punched Bonbon in the face before she could finish. "HOW DARE YOU DO THAT TO MY LITTLE BROTHER!!!" She screamed and ran to Toby's side. "Toby. Toby? Come on Toby you can wake up now! Seriously this isn't funny! TOBY! WAKE UP!" She yelled as she tried to shake him awake. She put her ear on his chest to try and hear a heart beat. Nothing. She hugged him and started sobbing. "Lyra." Bonbon said as she put a hoof on her shoulder. Lyra turned around and gave her the most hate-filled glare Equestria has ever seen. "Don't you touch me!" She said with so much venom it could fill the entire ocean. "Lyra, please. Can you explain what is going on?" Bonbon pleaded. "The end of our friendship." She said before vanishing in a flash of green magic with Toby. She quickly turned around to see her front door being slammed shut. She ran up to the door and tried to open it, but it was locked. She started pounding on the door. "Lyra! Lyra open the door! This is my house too, you can't just lock me out! Lyra!" Slender sensed something wrong. Something had happened to Toby. Someone had attacked him. This really pissed Slender off. Looks like someone made the top off his Hit List. > Smile For The Killer! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As Smile Dog looked for the squirrel he was chasing he heard growling that was not his own. He looked around him and notice glowing yellow eyes watching him from every angle. He growled back. 'Damn Animal instincts! Damn squirrel! Damn weird girl having MY cursed photo! Sigh, Whatever. At least I have some new playmates to kill.' Smile thought as his fur turned red and he started to change into his cursed form. Jeff was running through the forest looking for his Smile. He heard pained yelps and whines and ran faster towards the noise. As he ran a dog shape slowly crawled out of a bush whimpering, then quickly got dragged back behind the bush. Jeff stopped and smirked. "Hey Smile, don't kill them too quickly!" He yelled then started making his way past the bush. As he made it through he saw Smile calmly sitting surrounded by wood chips and in front of him cowering against a tree was a living wooden wolf. "Huh. Well look what we have here. Seems like you fetched yourself one hell of a stick." He said as he walked up to the wolf. "Hmmm? It looks kinda cool. Lets see if this twig knows some tricks." He leaned up to the wolf. "Sit." The wolf just continued to shrink back closer against the tree. "Maybe you didn't hear me. I said SIT!!!!" He yelled as he took out his knife and embedded it into the tree right above its head. The wolf yelped in fear and slowly got into a siting position. "Good dog. Just needs a bit of encouragement." He pulled his knife out and lick the sap off. "Now, let me ask you something runt. Do you really think I'm going to let you live after you tried to attack my dog? But I'll tell you what, since you did what I said..." Jeff quickly lifted the wolf off the ground by its neck. "...I'll give you a quick death." And with that said Jeff squeezed his hand and crushed its neck. The wolf fell apart stick by stick. Jeff turned to Smile... then kicked him in the face. "That's for running off." Jeff looked over and saw a squirrel climbing a tree. He through his knife and nailed it to the tree by its tail. "And this is for killing those damn wolves." He walked over to the flailing squirrel and took it off the tree with his knife and through the squirrel to smile which he caught, forgetting about the pain in his face. Jeff looked around a bit and saw an odd looking tree with bottles hanging from the branches by rope and weird masks surrounding it. He spotted a window and a door and saw it was a house. "Well it looks like we've got a place to stay. Come on Smile." Jeff said as he motioned for Smile to follow. As Jeff and Smile neared the tree house he noticed some light coming though the window. For a moment he wondered how stupid one would have to be to put fire in a tree. He peaked in the window to see that no one was inside. He walked to the door and found it was unlocked. However lived here was just asking to get robbed. He walked in with Smile following close behind. "Hmmmm? Weird, but cozy." Jeff said as he closed the door and looked closely at the strange liquid in the boiling cauldron in the middle of the room. "Yep, this'll do." Jeff said as he unzipped his pants and began to wiz in the cauldron. "Ahhhhhhh. Much better." He said as he releaved himself in the big pot. When he was finished he zipped his pants and began to look around. He approached a shelf that was labeled potions and inspected the colorful bottles. Finding nothing interesting he went to look at the rest of the house. "I wonder if there's any whiskey. Hey Smile, try to sniff my out some Alcohol." Smile nodded and was about to begin searching until he heard someone coming. He ran to the window and confirmed his suspicions. A creature that was hidden under a light brown cloak with two bags on its sides was coming towards them. Jeff walk up to Smile and look out the window also. "The fuck is that?" He asked. "Shit. We gotta hide." He turned around and spotted a bed. "Smile, under the bed." Jeff ordered. Smile did just that and ran under the bed. Jeff looked around some more but couldn't find another place to hide. He could hear the creature walking up the wooden steps and started to panic a little. The creature opened the door to see... nothing, Just like it expected. Above the creature, hanging onto the vines on the ceiling was Jeff. The creature walked to the cauldron and took off the hood to reveal... a zebra? With a Mohawk? Covered in gold rings? Well it definitely wasn't the weirdest thing Jeff has seen. It set the bags down and took a whiff of the pot and put on a suspicious expression. "It appears somepony was messing with my brew, But now the question is, Who?" The Zebra said. Scratch that, Defiantly one of the weirdest things he's ever seen. Zecora stepped away from the pot and sniffed the air. The smell of B.O. mixed with blood and a hint of alcohol greeted her. "Whoever you are I know you are here. Come out now and I will not be severe" She said. There was a loud thud behind her and and then she heard a gravely voice speak. "Is that a threat?" Zecora calmly turned around to confront the intruder. Standing in front of her was a tall, pale, bipedal creature with red stains on its white hoodie and jeans, but the most noticeable feature was its face. Big, wide, bloodshot eyes that seemed to never blink and huge bags underneath as if it hasn't slept for weeks. Its long, greasy, messy, black mane reached all the way down to its shoulders. It had an unnaturally large cut in smile on its face that literally went ear to ear. Its purples were dilated to the size of pin pricks. Quicker than Zecora could react Jeff grabbed her muzzle, holding it shut and held his knife to her throat. "Do you really think you scare me! I could slit your throat right now and shower in your blood as it squirts out of you neck while you try to get that one last breath before you GO TO SLEEP!". Zecora was scared stiff and sweating profusely. Was this how she was going to die? Killed by a strange creature from the Everfree Forest. To Zecora's relief Jeff loosened his grip on the knife and pulled it back. "BUT! You interest me. I've seen a lot of shit, but a tiny, talking, potion brewing zebra! HA! That's almost as crazy as I am, and I can appreciate that. Plus you can tell me a little about this little Hell Hole I ended up in." Jeff let go of her and she immediately ran for the door. A huge red and black dog jumped in between her and the exit, causing her to stop dead in her tracks. The dog was terrifying with a giant grin that did not belong on a normal dog. It just sat there starring at her with non-blinking white eyes. She backed away from the dog and bumped into something behind her. "Why do they always choose to run?" The biped creature said. She didn't dare look behind her, for she did not want to see the creatures bloody cut up face again. "W-what do you want with me strange beast? Just please, I do not wish to be deceased." After she said the the creature... started laughing? Jeff howled in laughter while holding his gut. When he finally calmed down he spoke. "I don't know what it is, but I like you." Jeff turned the zebra around and looked her in the eyes. "Come on! Give me a smile!" He said. Zecora just stood there in confusion. "I said smile" Jeff took out his knife and held it in front of her face. "Before I give you one."
