Chapter 7: The Judgement Day

“Pinkie!” Rainbow shouted. She was looking for her friend that had ran off crying, for some reason. She then groaned. “Where is she...” She sighs. “Oh well. She won't be getting into any troub—“ Her thoughts were interrupted when she bumped into an orange stallion.

He had on a shirt that said “Judgement Day”, a wizards cap (which she thought was laaaame.) and…two bracelets. One had a money symbol on it, and the other, a heart symbol.“Oh! Sorry, I didn't see you there...” She said in embaressment.

“I am Judgement Colt.” He spoke. “It’s your Judgement day, Rainbow Dash!”

“Wait, how do you…never mind. Go on?” Rainbow was wondering how did he know her name, but she just slid that to the side.

“You're a young pegasus foal, in flight school.” Judgement Colt began. “You're in a race with your best friend. You're oh-so close to the finish line, and if you finish that race, you get a year's supply of food for your poor family. But! As you cross the finish line, your friend slips off a cloud and falls. What will you do?”

This really tested her loyalty. Rainbow stared at the unicorn, then sat down, and thought. “I'd save my friend.” She concluded.

Judgement Colt then smirked an devilish grin. “Oh really, Is that so?” he asked. “Well, here's a little ‘lesson about friendship’ for you, dear Rainbow Dash!” He then stood on his hind legs, and levitated the two bracelets in the air, swinging them back and forth with his magic. “If you try to weigh your money against your love, there's no doubt your heart will start to sway. If you try to weigh your love against your money, your heart will start to break!” He then started spinning them around almost as fast as Rainbow can do the Sonic Rainboom. “ Judgment—“ He then stomped all four hooves down, and raised his right hoof in the air. “NOW!” The money bracelet went on his hoof, but the heart bracelet flung down, and shattered.

“You swoop to the ground and save your friend!” He shouted with a slight devilish joy. “But too bad for you, you never won the race, and your family dies of starvation because of your greed. If your friend fell, it would have been quick, and almost painless. But your entire family is dead, now.”

He then leaned closer.

“And it's all.
Your.
Fault.”

“...Buck you.” Rainbow spat, in disgust.

Judgement Colt laughed. “Oh, my dear, I'm amused by your defiance.” He complimented. “The truth hurts, doesn't it?”

“Why you…” Rainbow Dash growled, then charged up to him, she was clearly going to hurt him.

“Now, now. It's only fair.” Judgement Colt said calmly. “You played the game...”

His horn lit up, and Rainbow’s neck snapped. Rainbow fell straight to the ground, clearly not breathing.

“And you lost…” Judgement Colt finished. “It was your choice, Rainbow. You get to live with it. Or, you did live with it, at least.” He then turned around, and started trotting down the hallway. He then started chanting something. “Do you know? Who I am? They call me Judgement Colt..."
