Chapter 15: Why so little die?!

Twilight stepped nearer and nearer to Pinkie Pie, her horn crackling and glowing with energy.
Where did that energy suddenly come from? Thought Pinkie. She was so exhausted earlier.
"Why you so quiet?" asked Twilight. "Did you not hear me?! PREPARE FOR DIE, GOD DAMMIT!" Twilight fired a bolt of magic at Pinkie, which she very narrowly dodged.
"TIME FOR FACE GRAVY!" Twilight fired another bolt of magic at Pinkie, which she dodged again. "WHY SO MUCH DODGE?!"
"WHY SO LITTLE DIE?!" Another bolt, and another, and another. So many bolts of magic. All it took was for just one bolt to hit Pinkie, and it was over for Pinkie. She couldn't keep this up forever.
"YOU SUPPOSE ROSE GOT YOUR NOSE?! IS THAT IT?! HUH?! IS THAT WHY YOU SO LITTLE DIE?!"
Pinkie dodged one last bolt of magic before she dashed to the ladder and began descending it, nearly getting hit by Twilight's magic.
"WHY YOU LEAVE?! WHY NO STAY AND PREPARING FOR DIE DIE?!"
What had gotten in Twilight? Why was she acting like this?
Pinkie descended down the ladder, her hooves barely holding onto the sides as she slid down the length of it, hitting the bottom just a while later. From high above her, Twilight was firing bolts of magic down at her, but missing nearly every time. Her voice was abrely audible from this distance, but Pinkie could still hear the insanity in it.
She stepped away from the rungs of the ladder. Despite Twilight's many attempts at trying to hit her from this angle, she didn't make any move to descend the ladder and chase after Pinkie, for whatever reason. She didn't know whether Twilight would attempt to climb down sooner or later, but she didn't take any chances.
Pinkie turned around, away from the ladder and saw another long hallway that stretched for an indefinite distance. She began walking down the hallway, not looking back, but summoning a brick wall for good measure, in case Twilight did chase after her. As if a brick wall would do any good against the insane magical mare, but still.
She walked down the hallway for a good amount of time, before the sound of Twilight's voice from behind her finally comfirmed her fears, and she felt a chill run along the length of her spine.
"Piiiiinnkkiiiieeee...." said Twilight is a malicious sing-song voice. "Piiiiiiinnnkkkkiiieeeee......"
Pinkie began running, erecting brick walls every couple of steps. The brick walls did nothing to muffle the sound of Twilight's voice, however.
"Piiiiinnkkiiiee Piiieeee...." Twilight's voice seemed to be growing louder and closer. "PINKIE PIE! GET THE FUCK BACK HERE!"
Pinkie only ran faster, her hooves barely touching the ground by now.
"Twilight used Magic Dash!" Pinkie heard the sound of many brick walls being broken from. She dared to look behind herself to see a speeding Twilight Sparkle, coming towards her. She was cloaked in an aura of magical light, the same light which her horn usually emitted.
Twilight suddenly dashed to the side of Pinkie, then rammed into her, squishing her against the brick wall of the hallway.
A sickening crack was heard for a split second, and then Pinkie was lying on the floor, gasping in pain from the shock of having her ribs being suddenly broken.
"It's Super Effective!" Twilight said happily.
Twilight stepped back from her handiwork and examined the situation closely. A badly injured Pinkie Pie, many broken brick walls, and Twilight, herself was aching all over from all the exertion she just performed.
What a day.
