Once more, Spike and Twilight fell on the cutie map.

“Wait, why is is night again?” Spike asked. “Didn’t we already do Nightmare Moon?”

“Yeah, we did. I wonder if this is a different her, or some other threat.”

“Well, I gue-”

“What is it, Spike?”

“Look, the bushes!”

For there, in the bushes, were eyes. Not your standard creepy yellow eyes, mind you, but red ones. Red ones are always much worse.

“H-hello?” Twilight called out.

The eye grew closer. And closer. Before long, there was a… creature… belonging to those eyes.

“S-sunset? Sunset, is that you?”

For Sunset it appeared to be. Then the wings unfurled. They were not, of course, ordinary wings. These were more leathery -looking, and slightly translucent.

“What are you?” Twilight asked, voice wavering.

Still no response. And still not-Sunset grew closer.

By the time they saw the fangs, it was too late.
