She knew that she would have to give Rarity and her some time apart after their talk last night. She changed her mind however, and instead went to her hut. She got into the hut and started reading some books. The topic of interest, torture. She could not think of anyway to get payback for her death. She wasn't just thinking of herself though. She was wanting to seek revenge for the deaths of many ponies killed by Moonstone. Her motivation for this was that she had lost many years of what should have been her life. The thing that kept her going though was that she was kind of the Lucky one. She had to stop him. She went through book after book. As she did, she began to think about her friends. It seemed as if she was the only one among the group that would think like this. She had worked on her revenge for so long, she never stopped to think of the good. She now has many friends. She lives in a town. She got to see both princesses. She had a beautiful dress made just for her. She is a hero of her home town. But... there is plenty of bad that comes with Moonstone himself. He kills relentlessly. He shows almost no mercy. He makes many bizarre things that do Celestia knows what. Inn was almost positive that he even uses other ponies body parts as his own. If she goes through with this, she might lose her friends. If she doesn't go through with it, then many innocent ponies will die. If she just tells Celestia, then she may only lock him in a prison where he may escape. She doesn't know what to do now. She only keeps reading in the books, hoping there may be an answer somewhere in them. A way to torture him, a way to keep him at bay, whether it is better to report him, or anything. Finally, Inn finds her answer. It was a bit odd, but she found it suitable. It was common for guards and citizens to kill leader after the lead had shown themselves unworthy. She would do just this. Inn was about to dart of, happy she had an answer, sad she may not get to see her friends, and wanting to get this all over with. She then noticed that she may be needing something for her friends. She goes and rights a note. When Inn finished her note, she left the note pinned to the door as she left. ============= Inn walked to Moonstone's metallic house, slowing down every so often. She got to thinking about this a bit more. He did not seem that vile. Moonstone may stop if he has something to make him stop, yes. That something does not have to be death though, does it? Inn's thoughts were spinning. She had two conclusions, and neither seemed good to do or not do. She watched the patterns of the shadows caused by the raising sun as she walked. She was almost at the house now, she needed to make up her mind. She could see the house and still her mind was not made up. She continued walking slower and slower as she got close to the house. Standing in front of the door. Mind not made up yet. She hesitated on pressing the button for those bells. Then it clicked. She can just leave. Before Inn could Lower her hoof, there was a sudden, “Well hello there,” from behind her. Inn jumped, back flipping to the ground... again. “Ah, h-high.” “Oh, it has been so long since you last did that,” chuckled Moonstone. “So do you have any more information to tell me? I so would love to hear about what is going on with the flying monsters. I came out about a week ago to see if-.” “Ah, well a-actually... I have a question for you.” Inn started to roll over to get back to her hooves. “Well, fire away little Inn. You know I wouldn't mind sharing what I know about any random trivia.” “How i-is it that y-you have a multi colored coat? Why don't your m-mane and t-tail match? H-how did it a-all change f-from before?” Inn believes that she knows the answer to these questions, it's just a matter of how they are answered that will help with her final decision. “Oh, that's simple. I have seen many ponies that have coats that just looks wonderful, and if I can, I use their coats as my own. I of course need a robot like Tex to do the work of stitching it onto me, but it is done with relative ease.” He said this as if it were as common a thing as eating hay. “I have a-another question. Do you k-kill those ponies?” “Well yes, I need to experiment with something. It is usually better if the subject is dead for it to work. Well, that is, I have made it better. I can keep body parts living while the subject is not any more.” That sealed it. She now knew what she was going to do. “Doctor Moonstone Specter... I quit.” “What!” he said as he took some steps back. “Why all of the sudden?” “Working for you s-supports your h-horrid experiments. S-so I quit.” Inn just knew that stating what she wasn't liking about his life would get him to change it. “Why does everypony keep saying that?” he asked, raising his voice a little as he did. Inn began to doublethink her own choice. “Who else h-has told you this?” “The ponies from my home town. They all said it. They said that my experiment made them feel scared. Then Tex says that she can't stand to look at me. Why?” There was hysterical confusion in his tone. Inn stepped closer. “Ponies... don't like k-killing. Even my killing d-dragons is looked down upon.” “Why? What is it that makes these things wrong?” He was beginning to sound more irritated now. Inn tilted her head to the side and asked, “What do you m-mean why?” “Why is it not okay for me to experiment or you to live? I don't get it!” Now there seemed to be no confusion, just irritation. “Death, i-it's to avoid death. N-not to stop us, to s-stop death.” She said in hopes that this would get across to him. “AHHH! But why? I don't get it!” he shouted in his frustration of a topic that is clearly over his head. Inn sighs, “I-I'm going now, bye.” “No, stay!” he demands as he head buts Inn. “Wha-?” is all she could say before the sudden attack. Inn stammers, and then looks back at Moonstone. “Wha-what was th-that for?” “No! You can't leave! You can't leave!” Moonstone seemed to be losing it... or what little he had. “Y-you can-can't keep me he-here.” Inn was just about to change into a taller pony, but then she was head butted again. As she tried to prepare for another head but, he rammed her again and pushed her until she fell onto the ground. “Don't leave! Don't leave! Stay!” Inn never knew that old ponies could hit this hard. She stammers back to her hoofs again. She make her fur scaly and hard before she made her reply. “No, n-not e-ever a-.” He rammed her again, and asked, “Why, why?” Inn was hurting from the previous head buts, and had a hard enough time changing her fur. So after this ram, she lost control of it. She was getting closer to the house with every ram Moonstone did. Inn did not answer his question, but instead tried to run. As soon as she lowered her head to sprint off, Moonstone charged at her again. This flung Inn into the house's metallic walls. “No no no NO! I was so close to finding out what it was! Don't go! I need you!” Inn was too distracted by the pain around her body to hear what Moonstone said. He came for one more head but. He got dizzy from that one. Inn started coughing. When Moonstone's world was not spinning anymore, he rammed again. Inn's instinct kicked in, and a spike formed at her side. Inn was pushed into the metal with quite some force. Almost as soon as she lost the spike, Moonstone fell to the ground with a massive hole in his head. Inn coughed. She coughed again and again. She looks under her where she was coughing, and see blood splatters. She has never felt such pain. She now welcomes that time she fell out of the sky do to the sun blinding her. Inn tires to stand, but passes out.
