Rainbow's cries of help rippled through the floors of the library and to her surprise, didn't wake Twilight from her deep sleep.
Rainbow flew to her bedside and started shaking her sleeping soul with what strength she had left in her now shaking hooves.
'Twilight! WAKE UP!'
Twilight sleepily opened her eyes as the rainbow maned Pegasus came into focus. Twilight gave a loud yawn.
'R-Rainbow? What are you doing here?' Twilight glanced at her bedside clock,'Its 3 in the morning...'
'I NEED YOUR HELP! SOMETHING IS IN MY HOUSE! SOMETHING EVIL!' Rainbow instantly replied with a fierce tone out of her scared and shaken voice.
'There was something in a box and... it tried to attack me!! I'VE NEVER BEEN SO SCARED! It came at me and stared into my eyes with its own glowing red eyes and....'
Rainbow was stopped by Twilight's hoof being slammed into her mouth.
'Rainbow, calm down! Now, what attacked you?' Twilight stared at Rainbow, retracting her hoof awaiting an answer.
She gave her a scared look.
'A.... yellow and white fox doll with blood red glowing eyes and a maniacal smile! I TAPED IT BACK INTO THE BOX AND IT BROKE ITSELF OUT!'
Rainbow began telling her story, 'I was awoken by the jingling bells it had inside of it and.... i went to my bookshelf where i placed it and... ITS WAS OUT OF THE BOX! I just found the box outside of my house yesterday, after sky busting through the clouds.... It had no address...'
Twilight put her hoof to her chin, tapping it a few times.
'Hmmm.... A moving, crazy doll, huh? That sounds a bit weird, Rainbow.. Are you sure it wasn't a dream??'
She gave Rainbow a smile at her small joke of Dashie being scared of a doll.
Rainbow gave an angered groan.
'HEY! This is serious!!' Rainbow yelled at the purple unicorn, now laughing.
'Yes it was real! I saw it! i came here after it happened!'
'Hehe, sorry, Rainbow, it just sounds like a dream a filly would have, but i do remember a thing like this in one of my books...'
Twilight used her magic to lift books off her shelf and swoop them down so she could find what she was scanning for.
'No,no,no,no,no, YES!' Twilight said in an excited voice.
'Rainbow, the tale is called: Mystery of The Death Doll'
Rainbow's ears pricked upon hearing this.
'Come again? A death doll?'
'Yes, it says here that it was a failed experiment that turned incredibly hostile and ended up escaping the facility where they tried to make it by splicing DNA of a fox and a stuffed bear.' Twilight explained,'Yes, it sounds physically impossible, but they made it work, and upon its escape, it killed lots of scientists and guards, as well as facility engineers.'
'They were all found with their chests torn fully open, through the bones and flesh with their hearts gone.'
Rainbow's expression turned to a look of disgust.
'Eww! That's just vile! What does it want with a heart anyway? Its a stuffed fox-bear experiment, it has no use for a heart!'
'Hmmm, not quite sure Rainbow, I don't think anypony knows. I guess you would have to find one of the ponies who used to work there before the accident happened.'
'I dunno... that sounds a bit risky to me. What if that 'thing' catches me? He may kill me too!'
Rainbow was starting to go deeper into her thoughts to consider her final choice to go find the source of the evil or find the facility from which it was created in. But this surely can't be true, it just couldn't!
Silence swept between the two friends as Rainbow broke the silence telling Twilight her final answer.
'Twilight... I want to go find out what that thing is and why it was at my doorstep. I'm gonna go find out the truth.'
Rainbow's voice was now quiet, thinking further about her decision as to what she just said she was going to do.
LATER ON AT RAINBOW'S PALACE
Rainbow had left Twilight's library and flown back to her fluffy cloud house in Cloudsdale.
She opened her door gently and quietly with her front hoof and peered inside for a glimpse of the doll that came to life the day she brought it in, but she saw no sight of the devilish thing.
She slowly trotted into the still darkened hallway of her house, sending shivers down her spine by just thinking about what Twilight had told her.
She saw and heard nothing apart from the draft of the wind coming from the slightly opened door behind Rainbow Dash.
Rainbow wasn't taking any chances and scanned every inch of her house for the nightmarish doll that she had taken in last night, but saw no trace other than the small cardboard shards from the first time it came to life.
As she was scanning the dining room in which she had left the doll, she was startled by a loud noise that sounded like glass breaking.
The noise made Rainbow jump out of her skin and she began to slowly whimper, fear now soaring in her now fragile mind.
Rainbow quietly trotted to her kitchen where she found the source of the noise.
All of her plates and cups, including her cherished Wonderbolts plate had been smashed into small bits of pottery and granules.
'How the hay...?'
Rainbow was confused and scared, thinking where the doll was now. It was clearly in the kitchen... but where?
Rainbow was snapped out of her trance as she saw the doll fall from the cupboard door and onto the many shards that now lay across it with a thud.
'AHH!'
Rainbow screamed.
'OH MY CELESTIA!'
Rainbow was now more scared than she had ever been. She felt as tho she was in a horror film with all that was happening around her.
The doll's lifeless eyes gleamed devilishly in the light coming from the lights above like a fire ruby, filled with all sorts of inhumane thoughts.
Rainbow froze as she met the dolls disturbing glare. Just the very look of the doll made all the nerves within Rainbow turn to ice. sending shivers down her spine.
The dolls mouth began to move slowly then say in a darkened voice.
'I see yooooo-uuuuu.'
The doll then revealed it's razor-sharp teeth to Rainbow's now horrified face and made her back away as the possessed doll stumbled to it's feet.
What Rainbow didn't notice, out of fright, the doll was wielding a knife in its small, stuffed hand.
Rainbow was now panicking, looking for a way out, but the only way out was the window, but that was too risky.
If she tried the window, she would surely be killed by the knife first.
She had to act fast, and grabbed the nearest weapon she could find.
She feverishly rushed her hand around her kitchen counter and felt her electric bread knife and took it out from behind some glass cups and mugs and turned it on.
'STAY BACK! STAY AWAY FROM ME!!'
Rainbow demanded.
She couldn't see any trace of the doll now, but she could hear its tormenting laughter that echoed throughout her house's fluffy walls.
The laughter never seemed to end as it bounced wall to wall like a ghosts cry into Rainbow's ears.
Out of the darkness the doll was hunting Dashie and waiting for the right moment to take her by surprise.
A few minutes had passed and Rainbow Dash was scared half out of her mind, when all of a sudden the doll jumped on top of her with ungodly strength, especially awkwardly strong for a stuffed teddy.
'AHHH! NO! GET OFF ME!'
Dash screamed as she struggled to stop the doll pushing the knife into her chest as she fought for her life.
'You are perfect for what I need...you must die for me to process you!'
The doll said in a muffled voice.
Dash was getting even more scared by the hour.
Upon being tackled, Rainbow dropped the bread knife and was struggling to get it under the force of the dolls strength and strangely heavy body mass.
She tried to grab it with her front hoof while using her feet to push herself along her puffy cloud floor and eventually reached the knife.
After retrieving the knife, Dash flipped the power switch and the knifes began to move at a rapid pace, strong enough to cut through soft materials.
She used her right hoof to wield the electric bread knife and sawed through the collar of the doll, creating a long gash and a confetti of stuffing as the doll cried in pain and retreated out of the kitchen and escaped through the front door of Dash's cloud palace.
Finally alone, Dash was able to breathe and live another day.
'I... gotta... tell Twilight and the others about this....this is bad!'
