Chapter 11: Homicide
This song really fits the chapter.
I ran out of the room and in Starlight's room.
"Teleport me to Princess Celestia, its an emergency!" I yelled at her.
"Wh-what?" She asked, starting to stir.
"Ugh, fine." He horn glowed a deep blue. We were in Princess Celestia's throne room again.
"Stargazer! How did Crimson's date with Luna go?" She asked.
"Um, Bumble killed Pinkie Pie." I responded flatly. Her eye twitched.
"What? Bumble killed Pinkie Pie?" She asked.
"Yeah. He just tried to kill me at my house." I pointed to my bandages.
"He told me to come here and tell you." I said.
"Stay calm." She said.
"We will try to keep this a secret. Nopony must know that there is a killer in Ponyville." She said. There was a scream in the distance.
(Dammit! What is he doing this time?)
{Hurry Stargazer!}
I flew out of the window to see that the scream came from Sugarcube corner. I flew down.
{I believe Bumble said that Pinkie Pie was in the basement.}
I flew down to see Ms.Cake running out of the basement. She passed by and I went in. I walked down a flight of stairs and nearly screamed. Pinkie Pie was hanging there upside-down, with a Big X cut into her chest, blood dripping down.
"Hi, Stargazer." I turned around to see Bumble, a wicked smile spreading across his face.
"Time to finish what I've started." He said, arming his knife.
Goddammit.
He tried to slash me again, and I bucked him in the face, but this time, he got right back up.
"Snap out of it, dude! You are not a murderer!" I yelled. Suddenly, the door opened, and we turned to the door.
"Yes, I came down here and saw Pinkie Pie hanging upside down with a-" Ms.Cake was explaining to Mr.Cake. They stopped and looked at me and Bumble. They both screamed an ran out. While Bumble was distracted, I gave him a good ol' bitch slap in the face.
"Wake the fuck up man!" I yelled. He shook his head and looked around. He looked at the knife, and then over to Pinkie Pie. He dropped the knife and fell to his knees. He started sobbing.
"Stay here." I said. I was about to leave when he said,
"I don't want to be stuck in a room with the Pinkie Pie that I murdered." He pleaded.
"Fine. Stay behind me at all times." I told him. We walked back up the stairs, and then ran out of the building. Mr. and Ms. Cake were telling the Mayor everything. There was a crowd as well, and they turned to us.
(Oh, hell.)
"FLY!" I yelled to him. We took to the sky and flew away as fast as we could. Most of the pegasi flew up, and I saw Rainbow Dash in the front of the crowd, more pissed than ever.
"You-YOU KILLED MY BEST FRIEND!" She yelled at us. I looked over to Bumble.
"Get to somewhere safe, I'll hold them off!" I screamed at him. He nodded and sped off. I turned around, facing all of them.
"Come at me bros!" I screamed. Rainbow Dash came first, and sent me flying into the ground with one hard punch. But I quickly rose back up to face her, and uppercutted her stomach. She looked as if she was about to puke. I saw Derpy over in the crowd. She yelled at me,
"Why are you fighting us!? That pony is a killer!" She yelled.
"That pony is my FRIEND!" I yelled back, darting into the crowd. Something else came over me, as I felt myself getting stronger, faster, better. I could feel something inside me burst out, and I was glowing a dark blue. Nopony could lay a hoof on me, and they couldn't even open their eyes without being smashed in the face. There was only one that I avoided. Derpy.
{Angle 12! Strength 57! Force 83! Speed 154!}
(YEAH! WE ARE SO BADASS!)
What's happening?
[You're in Boost mode. Basically, your strength, speed, and accuracy triple.]
Damn!
<It only happens when you have a vengeance, or is constantly trying to protect something. You can actually control when it happens, but you can't do that yet.>
{Indeed. But at the moment, we must protect Bumble!}
I was hitting them all. Most of them gave up and fell to the ground, while some others were more persistent. After a fury of punches and blows, they were all out except for Rainbow Dash. She looked furious.
"I'LL KILL YOU!" She screamed and charged at me. I dodged to the side and grabbed her tail. Big mistake, she bucked me in the face, and I let go of her tail. She charged at me head on, and smashed me through a tree.
(Damn, dude!)
I got up and dodged the revenge filled punch, and grabbed her arm, twisting it around. I let go and grabbed her face, smashing it into my knee. She had a very bloody nose, but she was only unconscious. Derpy stood there in fear, backing away if I even got close.
"I'm sorry." I told her, and flew in the direction that Bumble was headed.
