Two-Strange behavior
It's 4:23 p.m. and Octavia just came inside after one of her performances.
"VINYL! I'M HOME!... ARE YOU UP YET!" Octavia yelled as she walked up some stairs, walking down a hall she stopped at Vinyl's door and knocked.
"Hey, you in there?" Octavia asked on the other side of the door, waking up Vinyl. Vinyl slowly opened her eyes. Everything was upside down.
"Huh?... What the-" Vinyl said as she fell to the ground. She sat up and rubbed the back of her neck.
"Did I... sleep on the ceiling?" she said to herself.
"What are you doing in there? Come out!, you've been sleeping all day." Octavia’s voice said on the other side of the door.
"Kay. I'm coming." Vinyl said walking to her door and opening it. Octavia was standing on the other side smiling, but her face slowly began to grow worried.
"Oh my gosh! What happened?!" Octavia said, in a concerned, scared way. Vinyl looked down and touched her neck, but when she did, Vinyl grunted and fell forward as the pain finally caught up with her, Octavia lunged out and caught her before she could hit the floor. Octavia couldn’t believe what she was seeing. As she looked down at Vinyl’s neck all she could see was a piece of her neck missing.
"I guess it wasn't a dream." Vinyl said faintly.
"We have to get you to a hospital!" Octavia said. She bounced Vinyl on her back carrying her downstairs to the front door.
"A little help?" Octavia asked Vinyl. Vinyl's horn glowed and the door opened. But her horn Glowed red instead of its normal blue glow. Octavia saw the glow and grew a great deal more worried.
"We have to hurry…" Octavia said as she trotted outside. The moment Vinyl came into contact with the sunlight she let out a horrifying scream. Her coat was smoking, and the sun was burning and it felt like the sun itself set vinyl on fire. She screamed in horrible pain and rolled off Octavia's back. Vinyl summoned all of her strength to squirm into the shadow of a tree. Octavia now in a panic ran over to Vinyl.
"Vinyl?! Are you ok?! C'mon, we have to get you to the hospital!" Octavia said as she grabbed Vinyl's hoof pulling it into the sun. Instantly Vinyl's hoof started smoking causing Vinyl to scream and pull her hoof back into the comfort of the shade.
"N..No... Can't...go in...sun." Vinyl said in unbearable pain. Octavia looked around worriedly for anything she could do. She saw Rainbow Dash lying on a nearby cloud.
"Rainbow!...Rainbow Dash!!!....RAINBOW DASH!!!!!" Octavia yelled. Rainbow Dash groaned as if just waking up from a nap, looked down at Octavia.
"Oh, HI! What's up?" Rainbow Dash yelled back.
"Come down here! And bring that cloud!" Octavia yelled. Rainbow Dash obeyed and flew up and pushed the cloud down with no question noticing the worried tone of Octavia’s voice.
"What do you need this cloud for?" Rainbow Dash asked Octavia. Octavia pointed to Vinyl, who was knocked out in the shade.
"Something's wrong with Vinyl. She can't go into the sun and she needs to get to the hospital. I need you to give her shade while I carry her to the hospital." Octavia told Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash nodded and flew up behind the cloud, and pushed it over Vinyl. Octavia bounced Vinyl on her back and the three ponies trotted over to the hospital.
It was 6:45 p.m. The sun was going down and Octavia and Rainbow Dash were sitting in the waiting room.
"So what happened?" Rainbow Dash asked Octavia.
"I don't know." Octavia replied as the double doors opened and the doctor came out. Octavia stood up instantly
"How is she?" Octavia asked the doctor.
"Surprisingly, just tiered. She'll be alright." The doctor said. Vinyl walked out from behind the doctor. She had a bandage wrapped around her neck.
"Hey Octavia...and Rainbow Dash?" Said Vinyl.
"She gave you shade while I carried you here." Octavia said.
"Now remember, Vinyl, Don't take off those bandages for at least three weeks." Said the doctor. Vinyl nodded as all three ponies walked out the doors of the hospital. Vinyl opened the doors, and again, when she did. Her horn glowed red. The three ponies decided it was in their best intentions to go to bed, after all nothing seemed to be wrong anymore and it was pretty late. So Rainbow Dash went to her cloud mansion, and Octavia and Vinyl went to their house. Vinyl's stomach growled.
The time, is 12:00 a.m., Midnight. Octavia woke up as she heard a noise. She sat up from her bed. Her door was open. Octavia was a little scarred, because she always shuts her door before she goes to bed. She held her breath, as she heard breathing. She looked around her room. Except her door being open, there was nothing different. Panning her head around the room she heard a creek...on the ceiling. She looked up and saw Vinyl on the ceiling, but there was something different about her. Her bandage was gone and her wound was healed, and her eyes were reptilian in nature, no… they were demon eyes.
"V..Vinyl? W..What are y..you doing?" Octavia asked. Vinyl exhaled through her mouth and slowly stepped forward. Octavia noticed Vinyl had fangs. Octavia, now terrified, paid close attention. Vinyl jumped from the ceiling towards Octavia in an instant. But before she could get her, Octavia lunged out of the way. Octavia standing in the doorway looked at Vinyl.
"Vinyl! Stop!" Octavia screamed. Vinyl stood on Octavia's bed and growled. She whipped around and tackled Octavia in the doorway. Vinyl was faster than lightning and the tackle cracked three of Octavia’s ribs. Octavia managed to get away from Vinyl and run down the stairs . Vinyl chased her on the wall. The bottom floor had lights lit up, and a window was open. Octavia ran for the window. But the window glowed red, and it closed. Octavia stared outside, it started raining. She turned around and saw Vinyl in the middle of the room. Her horn glowed red and all the lights went out. It was pitch black. Lightning struck and lit the room for a second. Vinyl was closer. Lightning struck again, and Octavia saw Vinyl for another second. She was closer. Octavia bolted for the kitchen door way to her left. She smashed her left shoulder into the door frame and fell down. She crawled under the table and tried to hide.
All of a sudden, the table flew up and all Octavia saw was red eyes and she was thrown out of a window. Octavia was covered in rainwater, blood, and glass. Looking at the house she saw Vinyl crawling out of the window. Vinyl's horn glowed red and Octavia's blood which she was now covered in flew off her body and into Vinyl's mouth. Vinyl licked her lips and smiled. Octavia got up and tried to run but Vinyl's horn glowed red and fire circled Octavia. Octavia stopped in her tracks and turned around. Vinyl walked through the fire and stood in front of Octavia.
"Stop, Vinyl! This isn't you! You’re not a killer! You’re my friend!" Octavia yelled. Vinyl's demon eyes disappeared and the fire disappeared. Vinyl's horn glowed blue and the glass in Octavia levitated out and her cuts were healed. Vinyl ran over and hugged Octavia.
"I'm so sorry! I don't know what came over me!" Vinyl said, crying. Octavia started crying too.
"I'm glad you're back" Octavia said.
"I'll never hurt you again." Vinyl replied, as the two friends cried in the raining night together.
