So, This Happened · 8:27pm Jun 27th, 2013
This isn't my fault. Blame Bradel, who started it, and horizon, who made it a thing.
Idared Montoya: She's climbing the rope. And she's gaining on us.
Trixini: Inconceivable!
(The chase continues. The Mare in Black is still gaining.)
Trixini: Faster!
Fezzie: I thought I was going faster. I'm faster than this rope, anyway. I mean, it's not even moving! It's all just like, durrrr.
Trixini: Trixini had heard you were unstoppable. This great force, unconstrained by reality! And yet she gains.
Fezzie: Well, I am climbing with hooves. Hooves! I mean, how does that work?
Trixini: Trixini does not accept excuses. She shall simply have to find a new minion to warp the causal fabric of the universe.
Fezzie: What? I am totally the bestest reality-warper ever!
(They are at the top of the cliff.)
Idared: Hold up. How did we...
(Trixini lights her horn and unravels the rope, which is tied around a great rock. The rope plunges over the edge of the cliff.)
Trixini: Hah!
(They go to the edge and look down. The Mare in Black is hovering with wings unfurled.)
Trixini: She didn't fall? Inconceivable!
Fezzie: Oh.
Idared: Right.
Fezzie: Wings.
Idared: Huh.
EDIT TO ADD: Two dozen points to whoever writes a scene with Fluttershy in the Zoo of Death.
what?
Bradel had better watch out. If he doesn't get started on the story soon, the whole thing might get written out for him.

What am I doing!? It's been nearly an hour since this was posted, and I haven't checked in yet!
(Also, I love this. Also, nice job with the Idared Montoya.)

Thanks! The Idared thing is the second time in 24 hours that I've gone to wikipedia to craft a pony-related pun.
Zoo of Death?
Do you mean the Pit of Despair?
Fiiiine...
"Ah, you're awake. Excellent."
She adjusted her labcoat and fiddled a moment with the goggles perched atop her brow before addressing me once more.
"I don't believe we've met. My name is Dr. Adorable. I care for those creatures who cannot care for themselves. Over the years, I've found that the only problem with so many wards is a source of reliable food. To that end, I have invented this. I call it the Vege-Might."
She smiled proudly at her work.
"Beautiful isn't it?"
The yellow pegasus gestured to the enormous carrot-shaped device behind her, from which countless tubes, wires, belts, and hoses issued forth. Its design would be cause enough for alarm, but these same tubes, wires, belts and hoses ended up connected to the gurney upon which I was restrained.
I did not give her the satisfaction of a reply. She simply smiled, then continued her monologue.
"It took me half a lifetime to invent it. I'm sure you've discovered my deep and abiding interest in the care and keeping of critters. Presently, I'm writing the definitive work on the subject. So, I want you to be totally honest with me on how the machine makes you feel. This being our first try, I'll use the 'carrot' setting."
Without another word, she flipped a nearby switch. My world dissolved into a riot of pain and color. After a few moments, after a few years, the pain ended. From my limited viewpoint, I tried to ascertain the damage.
I was orange, and I noted a distinct improvement to my eyesight...
I am weeping tears of pure joy.

Close enough! Nineteen points, and my grudging approval.
I wish. All I can think of is:

No no, Zoo of Death. That bit where Inigo and Fezzik muddle their way through some five staircases of deadly animal-based deathtraps, before getting to the pit of despair at the bottom? The one that got replaced with the knothole scene in the move?
NOTANEDIT: Y'guys may have found my "I'm supposed to be doing something else" writing for the next little while. I don't even know if I can take myself unseriously enough to do this.
