Chapter 8: A wild Nightmare Night

Date: Friday, October 31st, 2031
Time: 15:41
Status: Booooooooo I'm spooky as fuck bois.


Thomas was doing something in his garage. It involved Victoria. Why? Because it’s that time of year to decorate one of his cars and this year HAPPENED to be the poor sedan’s turn. Nightmare Night according to Twilight, is one of the biggest holidays in Ponyville. So, Thomas decided to drag Victoria’s metallic ass into the garage and used a shit ton of wood and Amazon boxes he had in a storage area downstairs to dress Victoria up as a chariot. As he was spraying some black paint on a box, Golden Gears poked his head in to see what was up.
“Hey Thomas, what’s going on in here?” the tall stallion asked.

“Dressin’ up Victoria.” Thomas replied.

“AGAINST MY FUCKING WILL!” Vic yelled.

“Tone it down. We already discussed that it was your turn this year.” Thomas said and he rolled his eyes.

“Anyway, did you want to pair up with me for Nightmare Night Thomas?” Golden asked after chuckling.

“I got no problem with it. Vic? Thomas said and looked at his companion.

“Sure. Nothin’ better to do.” Victoria said.

Within 10 minutes, Victoria’s costume was done. Thomas had found an old mechanic’s suit in his closet so he got it dirty by doing some MUCH needed work on the Subaru. Golden is basically Frankenstein (Equine Edition!) so he was all set. Suddenly, a bright as fuck flash from the twin’s place caught Thomas’s eye so he and Victoria hauled ass in their direction with Golden on the roof of the car. As the trio pulled up, a light violet-colored pegasus with a sparkly magenta mane and tail was standing on the front porch. To say the mare was absolutely stunning would have been an understatement. Then Vic got curious.
“Now who the fuck are you?” She asked.

“Good day Victoria. Hope you’re day is going well.” the mare said.

“Still doesn’t answer my question. And I’m not gonna bother questioning how you know my name.” Vic said as Thomas did the little drum/symbol thing you get when you make a pun.

“I’m Midnight Luck. But it’s actually Elbony and Lucky. This is our fused form. Impressed?” she replied.
“Wait what.” Thomas said.

“Didn’t know that.” Golden also said.

“Oh. So this is your costume?” Vic asked.

“Yeah,” Midnight replied before asking, “Could I get a ride to town?”

“Hop in” Victoria said.

When the group got into town, Victoria stopped at the Castle of Friendship and let the 3 out. Already at the door was the entire Mane 6 and Spike, the CMC, and Spring Breeze who gave Thomas a hug as they haven’t talked much in the last month. Then a loud flap of wings was heard, a thud behind them, and Victoria tearin’ off like a bat outta hell. Everyone turned around and immediately bowed in front of Princess Luna who showed up for the celebration because it IS her night after all.
“You all don’t have to be so formal with me. I’m just here to enjoy the night.” Luna said as everyone got back up and Victoria slowly came back. Then everybody started laughing like hell.

Time: 19:53

Twilight was going over a group list and splitting everyone up. Spring and Flutters in one, Thomas and Golden in another,  Twi and Spike, Midnight with Victoria. So on and so forth. Once 20:00, everyone went their separate ways and the night began.

Victoria’s POV:
Time: 20:20

Me and Midnight were knocking out houses along the outskirts of town and I was playing the I Love My Country music video as we went along. Then the wind kicked up. Then outta nowhere, I felt a stare being laid on me, I looked in my mirror and a pair of eyes were staring directly at me. I tore the fuck off while I heard Fluttershy, Midnight, and Spring laugh their asses off. I came back and laughed too until a bolt of lightning flashed and a scary face sent all of us running, completely abandoning our candy bags. It happened to be Luna and RD that pulled the prank on us and swiped our candy. I honestly had to laugh and so did the others.

Thomas’s POV: 
Time: 20:43

Me and Golden had split up to cover more ground, after regrouping, we sat on a bench and counted our candy, but while we were, something happened which sent me running and Golden was laughing like hell. After chasing him around the block, we went ahead and made our way back to the castle where everybody was waiting.

After everyone had sat down in the dining hall where Twi had managed to prep a large feast that looked like it was out of one of the Harry Potter books which told Thomas she stole one of his books. After dinner, they all exchanged tales of what happened and laughs were made. After everything was said and done, they all went back to their respective homes,  with Thomas driving Midnight, Spring, and Golden back to his house. When the 5 pulled up, the first 4 got out with the 5th pulling into the garage and going to sleep while the others watched a number of movies.  The night ended at ‘bout quarter to 4 in the morning. Everyone opted to sleep on the couch with Thomas till late in the day. 

See ya next time folks!
