Chapter 6 - The Final Hour

Twilight Sparkle bursts into the room and catches Bun mid-air just inches away from Pinkie Pie's chest. Twilight throws him across the room into a wall, causing to drop his knife. Twilight unties Pinkie Pie and said "I think I found out why he can talk, and now I think I am correct." Pinkie Pie said "What...?" Twilight pulls a book out of her saddle bag and flips through pages until she stops on one page. She said "The Leshy Curse. A high level spell that can teach an animal to speak, but at a cost. The brain slowly Corrupt. There is no known cure and the spell has been outlawed for over three hundred years." Pinkie Pie then said "Then what do we do with Bun?" Twilight sadly replies "The only options are banishment where they can cause no harm... or..." She stops for a few seconds "Death" she finishes. Pinkie Pie shouts "We cannot kill Bun, think about his life and what it would do to Fluttershy?" Twilight replies "I know... but where could we send him where he could cause no harm..."

Pinkie Pie turns to the wall and gasps "Bun is gone!" she yells. Twilight said "There is no place we can send him, so we only have one option." Pinkie pie rejects "No! I cannot harm a living thing... I can't do it..." Twilight said "I know its hard... but it would be better for him in the long run." she continues "If you want, I can do it..." Pinkie Pie said "okay... Where is Bun any..." Then she realized "The Cakes!" She shouts as she starts to run towards the stairs. Her leg starts to throb and she collapses to the ground. Twilight sparkle said "I will go... you stay here and make sure he doesn't leave the building" as she walked up the stairs.

Twilight enter the nursery and saw the baby Cakes tied up and dangling from the roof. She sees Bun about to cut the rope and let them drop on to the ground. Twilight then says "Bun! Stop, they did nothing." Bun then turns to Twilight and says "Would you rather take there place?" as he lunges towards Twilight. Twilight teleports out of the way behind Bun. Bun crashes on the ground. He quickly gets up and lunges at twilight. Its a hit. Twilight's leg was punctured. She screamed! Bun laughed at her pain. Twilight kicked Bun and knocked him against the wall. Twilight picked up the knife and ran at Bun at full speed. Twilight missed and the knife bounded off the wall. Bun scurried under her. Twilight managed to kick him from behind and knock him to the floor. Twilight grab the knife from the wall and delivered the finishing blow.
