//------------------------------// // Deadly Sin Greed! Questions and Emotions! // Story: Ponyville's Biggest Threat // by MLPkillers //------------------------------// The killer maniac saw a home that looked fancy as he was running and scouting for more victims to kill, he stopped himself, looking at the House. “Rich’s.” (”Splatter there guts time!”) Toom thought insanely with extreme murderous intent., he already had a plan to kill these ponies, along with covering the crime up. He walked up to the door, knocking on it, grasping his hatchet while he knocked. Filthy Rich was counting his money, as been the whole time since isolation. Why haven’t they caught the criminal yet? Filthy rich heard the bang from the door, it knocked down the coat hanger, making the trail to the door harder to travel. Filthy Rich walked over to the door, replacing the coat Hanger’s position to its recent position. He looked at the door, a little frightening. If the killer was an assassin, they can be hired to kill him. The bang got slightly louder. (”Okay, that’s it!”) The rich pony thought with anger. Filthy Rich opened the door. He was greeted with a hatchet to his chest. The hatchet was quickly removed, causing blood to gush. Filthy Rich collapsed to the ground. Lucky he removed the coat hanger, or more penetration would have occurred. Diamond Tiara came running downstairs, she finished counting her father’s bags of currency. She decided to rush downstairs because of the loud noise. This was a grave mistake. “Ru-run! Diamond, Tiara!” “Filthy Rich screamed in pain. Diamond Tiara was paralyzed with fear, seeing her father in that condition. In a small pool of blood. She looked down at her chest. She felt a sharp, burning pain. Her eyes were in shock. She collapsed to the ground, dead. The hatchet Penetrated even further. Filthy Rich was infuriated. He just threw his hatchet at his daughter like she was nothing but a target. He got up, blood running down his abdomen. He attacked the killer, landing a hard firm blow to the face. The killer stepped back a little, his nose bleeding a little; he licked the blood that was flowing from his nose. Filthy Rich was disgusted at the sight. His anger brewed, his daughter is now-! He furiously attacked the killer again, hitting him in the face again, he shouldn’t be licking his blood. The killer again licked the blood off his face. He charged the not-so-far Earthpony. He punched him multiple times in the face while he was distracted by thoughts, his vision was becoming blurry. The hatchet caused more damage than he thought. Filthy Rich succumbed to his chest wound. He fell to the floor. Coughing up blood. The killer walked over to Diamond’s corpse, ripping the hatchet from her back, some part of the spine was exposed; as well as the organs that were protected by a fracture rib cage; he then made his way back to Filthy Rich. He’s going to make him bleed. Yes, very much, make him bleed! He raised his Axe over the wealthy pony’s neck. His eyes looked demonic. “Any Last words!?” The killer said with a devious tone and intent. He wasn’t going to wait patiently for his final words. Time to Di-! “Wh-why, killer!?” Toom smiled; preparing for his joke; His name rhymes with a certain despair word. “Because I’m Toom! Your Doom!” Toom said sinisterly and jokingly. Bring the hatchet down, decapitating Filthy Rich. His head rolled to his daughter’s corpse. Toom scouted the house with his eyes, he thought maybe there will be a new tool for his killing spree. He walked past the corpse and into the kitchen. He opened the kitchen drawer grabbing a big, luxurious knife. It had a gold handle. This is Rich’s home, too bad the wife ain’t here, he would’ve used this new tool for its original purpose. Stab, stab, stab! Toom took the gasoline can from his bag, he went through the kitchen, dumping it all over the floor. He then went into the living room, where the corpse was, the door was open still, he walked out the door, putting the cap back on the can and back into his bag. He decided the knife will be in the bag with his hatchet. (”I’ll think I’ll call it: Goldie.”) Toom said with joy in grabbing a new weapon. He grabbed the box of matches from his bag, igniting 1 and throwing it into the house. The house went ablaze as the fire passed through the Living room to the kitchen. Toom started to run, making quick of 100 feet. The home exploded, it sounded like a gunshot. Toom watched the home exploded, flames in his eyes. (”Glorious!”) Toom wickedly thought. He should’ve cut Filthy Rich’s skull to bits. The thought increases his bloodlust, along with his adrenaline. He made his quick way from the scene, almost tripping on the small debris. (”Who will be next!?”) Toom thought with evil intent; they might see their guts? Maybe they’ll choke on them and he makes them? (Hahahaha!) --- The group appeared in front of the Cottage. The detective and deputy walked up to the door, being followed by the mane 5. The detective activated an x-ray spell, looking at the bushes, he saw the corpse, blood was dried up on the ground. The killer must’ve been brutal since there was a knife wound through her chest. Rainbow flew over the bushes where Fluttershy’s corpse rested. She alerted the already-knowing detective where Fluttershy was. The detective swiped his hoof a Rainbow Dash, telling her to get back. She did what the detective’s body language. The body was levitated up by magic and concealed in a magical pod that won’t let the body rot anymore. The detective turned around to the mane 5, who was still devastated by their friend’s loss. “I have a couple of questions for all of you.” The detective said happy with a smile, he grabbed his notepad and pen; he needs all the information he can gather from them if he wishes to capture this assassin/killer. “What type of questions?” Twilight asked sassily. She didn’t like this Unicorn’s way of speaking, and by the look on his partner’s face, neither did he. “Questions involved in this homicide; and possibly the Pies massacre?” The detective said a tiny bit annoyed; Twilight’s smart, she reported the situation with her friends, he thinks she should know what question “Alright.” Twilight said normally. Twilight really like how he mentioned the massacre of Pinkie Pie’s sisters; she turned to see Pinkie Pie, who looked troubled. She wanted to find this, monster as much they did. Everypony did, so they can feel safe outdoors once again and not worried about being harmed. “Let’s get started. Did any of you touch the body?” The detective asked with worry; if any of them did, they could potentially be charged with murder? Even tho they didn’t commit the crime, the forensic evidence will be enough to charge any of them with murder; maybe the other detectives will start theorizing that the Mane 6 is the group of killers that carry the same knife? Obviously, this will be proven false; they also wouldn’t be the Mane 6 anymore also, they would’ve worked on her kind attitude and metamorphize it into aggression. “Well, Rainbow Dash over here almost did!” She pointed a hoof to the hovering Pegasus. She looked nervous. The detective felt a sigh of relief as he heard “almost did.” “So it’s a no? I don’t believe any of you could be the killer, I can tell by the emotions in the air, none seemed to be fake.” The detective said with sympathy; this made them think if he really can sense emotions? That’s impossible, how could you sense other emotions? I mean Cadence can, but she’s a princess of romance, or whatever? “Dear, you really think one of us could’ve been the killer?” Rarity said maturely and a little upset as she thought he thought that any one of them could be the killer/assassin? The rest of the group felt the same way as Rarity. Rarity moved next to Twilight, who also looked a little anxious and upset. “It was a possibility, that has been proven wrong, which I’m never am.” The detective said pridefully. Twilight was annoyed by the detective, everypony has to be wrong at some point in their life; well at least he doesn’t suspect them of being the killer/assassin which is the same thing; they both kill, one is just hired to. Rainbow Dash decided to be blunt; she had enough of this Unicorn; everypony is wrong sometimes and she felt animosity towards him for thinking one of them could be the killer. “Everypony is wrong sometimes.” The detective laughed; extending his hoof in front of his face and pointed it up. “I, am, never... Wrong!” The detective explained to Rainbow Dash with too much pride; Rainbow Dash got agitated but decided this detective is too full of himself. “Whatever.” Rainbow said back agitated. The detective was a little annoyed; he always solves and even brings the perpetrator to justice. Commer had bigger questions, such as: Was the unicorn named Comber? “My biggest question is, that Unicorn you mentioned and described early, was his name Comber?” The detective asked with a little fright. He hoped it wasn’t. “I think? I really don’t remember?” Twilight disappointedly replied. She looked worried, as she just unintentionally give the wrong information to the detective. “I also think it was.” Rainbow Dash said anxiously, feeling like she’s right. She remembered his name started with a c but forgot the rest. “This homicide is associated with the Pie massacre, the same knife is used; this is no doubt an assassin; if the perpetrator was a flat-out massacrer, they would’ve started to kill more ponies in Ponyville; this is in Ponyville, but on the outskirts, far away from the Rock Farm. “Wait, you measured the diameter of the stab wound?” Twilight asked in surprise. That’s the corner job, not his; he’s overstepping his boundaries; Twilight looked concerned. The detective smirked. “I’m not a coroner, but I like to know everything, I can already conclude this is by the same assassin. She must’ve been inside, in fact” Commer was smartly saying. The detective activated an x-ray spell and revaluation spell. Looking for hoof prints in the cottage. He didn’t find any. The assassin must’ve tampered with the evidence. The Unicorn deactivated the two spells. He was a little angry, but he felt sure he will find this assassin. “Well, there might be another announcement after the assassin is caught?” The Mane 5 was confused at first but remembered everypony in Ponyville is in their homes safe. If they did the same, they wouldn’t have found this information about this tragic murder. “You mares stay safe. Leave this assassin to us.” The detective advised the group; he doesn’t want them or anypony else to get harmed. Rainbow Dash wanted to make the assassin pay; She felt flustered. “I want to stop the assassin. " Rainbow Dash said with anger, Causing the deputy to worry. The deputy accompanied the detective, preparing to leave; they got to take the body back fast or time will consume evidence. “I understand you want to help Ponyville feel safe once again. Please don’t try to be the hero. Leave this assassin to us.” The detective told the blue pegasus and the rest of the group, not wishing no harm to them. Rainbow Dash still wanted to stop the assassin, along with Twilight, who already decided their next destination. “Stay safe.” Said the detective in a wishful manner. The deputy and detective teleported back to the station with the capsule. Leaving the Mane 5 at Fluttershy’s cottage, wondering what they should do next. “Let’s go regroup with Applejack.” Pinkie said depressingly. She wanted all her friends to be safe. She already knew Applejack would be. She wanted the group to be all together again. Maybe they can help solve the cases. “Oh, Twilight, isn’t it strange that Fluttershy’s cottage wasn’t distorted?” Rainbow Dash said with confusion. It was strange Twilight thought; the assassin probably used a clean spell; which would explain why there wasn’t any blood. This would indicate it definitely was a murder. If it was an accident fatal injury, then where’s the blood leading to the bushes? The detective probably thought the same thing. Twilight continued thinking. “Yeah, and where’s Angle?” Pinkie asked concerned for the little white bunny; when they were here the first time searching for Fluttershy and making sure she’s okay, Angle wasn’t able to be found. “He must’ve fled the scene.” Twilight said assuming Angle would’ve left as Fluttershy was being attacked. “I’m going to check on Applejack. Do you all want to come?” Twilight asked already knowing the answer. They are of course going to join. “Friends stick together!” Rainbow Dash said encouragingly with a smile; hoping to raise spirits. She’s the element of loyalty, she would betray that element if she ditched them. “They do darling!” Rarity agreeing with Rainbow Dash. It wouldn’t be generous if she left them in this state now would it? “They do...” Pinkie Pie sadly said. Still being reminded of the loss of her sisters; they also stick together. The group still felt the impact of Fluttershy’s loss; they wanted to cry, but the time is not available for sobbing. Maybe there’s a way to bring her back? That is what Twilight thought; she would need to master healing spells first before attempting resurrection. Twilight turned to Pinkie and Rarity. Needing reassurance they want to join. They nodded. They gathered next to Twilight, along with Rainbow Dash. Twilight liked how they thought she could teleport again, but with that degree of belief, she tried her hardest to teleport to Sweet Apple Anchors, where they would attempt to recruit Applejack. A purple flash occurred, followed by a white flash. The group was gone again, arriving at Sweet Apple Ancers’s welcome sign.
