The More Most Dangerous Game contest

So recently our Great Beardlord Obselescence started a new The Most Dangerous Game™ contest. Now with more Equestria Daily! Of course, I'm going to enter once again this time. The writing rules are the same as last time (mostly):

-Word Count Minimum: 2500 words. Word Count Maximum: 15,000 words. Some slight allowance may be given to stories that go over, but in general you should strive to fit within 15,000 words.

-Submissions must be complete when submitted.

-Submissions must have been written for this contest, meaning no old fics.

-One entry allowed per contestant.

-Use only one prompt, please. In the previous Most Dangerous Game, we got an awful lot of people trying to score as many prompts in their entry as possible. It was an admirable effort, but this time please try to do your best work possible using only one of the prompts.

-No crossovers, unfortunately. While one of the prompts is based on a crossover, this isn’t really the contest to submit a Fallout: Equestria sidestory or similar crossover attempt. Both because the audiences/judges may not be familiar with the source material, and because we feel it’ll encourage greater creativity for each contestant to come up with original concepts to tackle the prompt, instead of everyone going to the Fallout universe for ideas.

-Standard Equestria Daily rules regarding sex/gore apply (Find them here). One of the prompts is based on Cupcakes, so we are expecting to see some blood and such, but try not to go too far overboard. You can go the distance without in-depth descriptions of Pinkie playing skip-rope with someone’s organs.

-You may see a way to interpret any of the listed prompts in ways that run entirely contrary to the stories on which they were based. While you can try to do this, keep in mind that the goal of the contest is to “revamp” the classics, and create your own take on the original idea—which does suggest sticking at least a little bit to the spirit of the story. This being the case, the judges will probably look a bit askew at your entry if you try to, say, twist the Cupcakes prompt into a story about Pinkie building a spaceship to promote scientific discovery and goodwill. So just keep that in mind.

-Have fun. This, if anything, is the most important rule. Don’t stay up and chew your fingernails off to make your story perfect. We want this to be a fun contest for everyone.

The prompts this time, however, are old [in]famous stories from the deepest pits of hell EqD/fimfic:

-"Pinkie Pie invites a friend over to Sugarcube Corner. Little do they know that they’re in for a dark surprise." (Cupcakes)

-"A human finds a young pony abandoned in a cardboard box, and decides to raise them as their own." (My Little Dashie)

-"An old foe is reincarnated in the body of a young pony. What will the Mane Six do when they find out?" (Past Sins)

-"Lyra has always suspected that humans are real, and doesn't care if everyone else thinks she's crazy for it. She's about to find out that she was awfully, horribly, spectacularly, right." (Anthropology)

-"In an Equestria devastated by an apocalyptic war, the few that remain try their best to survive or rebuild--however they can." (Fallout: Equestria)

Choose one prompt to write about, as mention earlier. Of course. The contest is running from 3rd Jan to 24th Jan.

I have a pretty nice idea for the My Little Dashie prompt, so that's what I'm going to tackle. My Little Celestia, here I come! :3 I'll dress her in frilly filly dresses and have tea time together and—

I need to stop writing blogs while high on cough medicine.
