Chapter 18: satisfaction
I trotted down the familiar halls of the Helping hoof Hospital.
Everypony bounded out of the place once they heard the sounds of the demolisher starting up. There I was, walking amongst the chaos, in front of my old room, I could smell the distant, rotting stench of broken dreams and vacant shells of the happiness I had once had.
Nurses and doctors screamed and rushed outside. I calmly trotted down the hallway, against the stream of panicked staff. There was a relaxed smile over my face as the excitement of what I was about to do settled in.
Then I saw somepony.
Somepony that I once knew, it was Nurse Blueheat.
Her blue mane, was turning into a hue of gray and there were dark bags and wrinkles on her face. She was much older, but so was I.
She stared at me in disbelief for a while but shook her head and walked right by me, without even looking me in the eye.
My mane was flat and straight, which is probably why it was easier for her to recognize me, but it didn't matter and I didn't care, I was here for one reason.
I walked by room 3A. I stared at it for a while and I could almost imagine it, actually, I saw us; I saw me and Dashie, laughing and playing. I gulped down tears and walked on, and finally I got to my destination.
The doors gold writing glinted in the dying artificial light. I walked into the dimly lit office.
"Aren't you a sight for sore eyes." I spat with spite as I stared deep into the eyes of the pony who I had intruded on.
Doctor helfing stared at me.
His smile was now pure shock.
"W-what are you d-doing here!" He stammered with fear as I gazed at him evilly.
"I just was in the neighborhood, and I decided to stop in and say goodbye." I said with a sinister giggle,"I also wanted to tell you how great my life is, I get to watch Rainbow dash fly everyday and she is as free as a bird and you couldn't stop that, we are finally happy!"
"Y-you mean, she remembers you?"
"W-well no, but-" I paused and looked down sadly.
"Oh good, so it worked." His smile reappeared.
"What do you mean?" I said suspiciously
He took In a deep breath and grinned,"I suppose that I can tell you the truth since this place is going down, well, I made Rainbow forget, I Injected her with a serum that cut of her memories, so she would forget you, and not be a filly fooler, it was the only way that I was able to get her out of here, it was a bonus that it would add to your torture." His smile returned with sly confidence.
The blood in my veins boiled, my heart stopped. Pinkie pie disappeared, Pinkamena took control, and it was time for her to end the torment of her childhood dictator, and I let her. It was time for the torment to end, it was time for him to die, I knew it from the day that I met the infamous doctor, that I would kill him, he needed to die. His cruel words and constant punishment and agony he had put me through over the years had finally come back to haunt him, and I was going to give him all that pain, he was going to feel all the agony that I had felt.
My hoof reached down into my saddle bag and felt around for something cold and sharp. I knew this would have to come to an end. I pulled it out and revealed the gigantic knife, it's silver blade glinted in the dying light. A impossibly wide crazed grin formed on my face.
"Your not really going to kill me, Pinkamena, they would find out, and you would end up right back where you started."
I stared at him silently for a little longer,"I wouldn't be so sure doctor, you have no friends, you have no family, nopony here wouldn't really mind if you just, vanished. Your mangled carcass will rot beneath the rubble of this hospital and your shattered dreams."
Sweat dripped down his brown coat and he gulped nervously. He knew I was serious. He tried to run to the side but I grabbed him and threw him down with my strength and plunged my knife deep into his hoof, he yelped in pain and I dug the knife deeper and deeper until it came in contact with the wall behind him.
I thrust out the knife and licked off the blood. I cut vertically down his hooves and blood gushed out, staining his clean hospital floor, I grabbed the slabs of skin and pulled then apart and dug my hoof through the tendons and muscles in his hoof until I came in contact with the bone, and then, I thrust it out. It took a lot of strength and effort, but finally his hoof became limp and bendy without his bone, and the muscles had been all torn out. I
began to wonder if he was in pain, or if shock had taken hold and made him numb, but it didn't matter to me, as long as he got what he deserved.
I took the bone in my hands and ripped it in half, showing off the jagged white shards. I got good grip of the bone and once again plunged it deep into his hoof until the bone pinned his brown flesh against the wall, like how you would tack a poster up.
He gave a blood curdling, ear shattering scream and tears streaked his face, this was the only time I had ever seen the doctor as vulnerable as he was.
I repeated the process on all four of his hooves until he was utterly immobile.
"Okay, now let's begin." I exclaimed with a sadistic grin.
The pain became to unbearable for the doctor and he finally threw up, and promptly, emptied his bladder into the floor, causing the smell of urine to become evident in the room.
"Yuck!" I exclaimed as I jumped out of the way of his urine,"you have to learn to control that, Doctor Helfing." I giggled at his embarrassment.
I grinned more as I explained to him what was going to happen next,"Now I'm going to cut of your ears, but I'm going to leave your eyes, because I want you to see-" I paused and panted as I got closer to doctor helfing's vomit and blood covered face,"I want you to see- I- I want you to see- who is doing this- I want you- I want you to look deep into my eyes, and know- that I- that I am responsible for this." I breathed in and out rapidly and my pupils dilated as I smiled.
I cut of his ears slowly and he shouted in agony. I can feel the tendons and muscles ripping, and warm blood trailed down his face.
"Y-you awe a mounsteh." His weak voice said, his words obscured by his loss of hearing.
I knew he could no longer hear me, but I spoke anyways,"No no, Doctor Helfing, you are the monster that created me."
And with that, I spliced open his stomach, revealing his exposed innards to the dust and draft of the air.
I tried to hold in my giddy excitement but I couldn't and I began to giggle madly. I reached into his stomach and felt his warm, fresh, insides pumping with life. The desire to end that life was getting stronger and stronger as I took hold of his gooey intestines and pulled them out with might.
He vomited again and released his bowls, the smell of urine became stronger, but was masked by the metallic smell of blood.
I worked my way up to his beating heart. I felt it pumping desperately in my hands, trying to compensate for the massive amounts of blood he had lost, but the little heart knew it was over as soon as It felt my cold, bloodstained hoof grip around it.
I shifted my gaze and looked deep Into the doctors eyes.
They pleaded and begged for me to stop, but this time, it was my turn to be the emotionless pshycopath.
"See you in hell." I uttered as my grip got tighter around his beating heart. I pulled upwards and the red, slimy organ popped out with ease, becoming loosened from the tendons that it was hooked onto.
Doctor helfing gurgled and emptied the last of his urine and vomit before finally dying. His eyes rolled to the back of his head and the life slowly evaporated into the air.
It was quiet.
I stood up and looked around the silent room.
I was alone.
The agony filled screams of my victim had vanished and all that was left was the strong smell of piss and blood.
I grabbed the knife and rubbed against his mane, wiping it clean, and put it back in my saddlebag.
I calmly strolled through the empty halls. My shadow followed me and my empty hoofsteps bounced of the rotting walls of the once pristine hospital.
The lavish, clean, doors and walkways were faded and cracking.
The sudden sound of the demolisher outside snapped me from my reflective state as I darted down the hallways to the back entrance of the hospital.
I looked in the broken mirror that hung on the lonely wall before I left.
Blood was caked on my face and my straight pink mane.
I went to a bucket if dirty water in the corner and washed the blood off, I walked over to the mirror and poofed up my mane.
I darted out of the hospital just in time to see it fall to the floor.
I watched it's breaking figure collapse to the floor. It spit and coughed up dust and smoke and it rested peacefully on the ground, it's work was over and the torment that had boiled and resided in the hallways had been released into the air, and vanished.
I watched as the worker ponies had left me alone with the shambles of my ailments.
I started on the path back to Ponyville. The birds sang there songs of joy and the wind whistling through the trees sounded like a symphony. I began to bounce and a smile spread over my face, not a crazed smile, not a forced smile, a real smile.
Pinkamena was gone.
Pinkie was here.
