Mechsrule1 Chapter 0 Warning: Contains Spoilers If you're new to this series, be aware this is not chapter 1 and shouldn't be read first. Twilight woke up to the sound of breaking glass. Somepony was in the tree house! At once she was awake, drawing forth her magic. She got out of bed,and slowly and quietly headed down stairs to investigate. As she entered the main floor of the library something jumped out and pinned her to the ground. "Rainbow Dash?" Twilight shouted, surprised. "Twilight," Rainbow Dash said. Something was wrong. Her pupils were barely visible, and the pegasus was shaking. Twilight couldn't help noticed her wings were flared. "What are you doing in my house at this hour?" Twilight demanded. "You've got to help me Twilight! I'm really hungry!" Rainbow Dash said. "So you broke into my house?" "That's just it. I'm not hungry for hay or apples. I'm hungry for ponies!" Rainbow Dash whined. "Get off me!" Twilight growled, levitating the pegasus off her. "I think I read something about this. When you lived with Gilda, did you eat any meat?" The blue pony fidgeted. "Are you still eating meat?" Rainbow Dash nodded. "Rainbow, you can't do that! There's a food borne illness in meat that's causing this. Carnivores are all immune to it, but you're not." "So what do I do?" Rainbow Dash asked. "If I can find the book, maybe it has a cure," Twilight said. At once she began searching the bookshelves, but stopped when she felt Rainbow Dash pressing against her. The pegasus began nuzzling her. "How do you remember all this stuff?" Rainbow Dash asked, but didn't stop. "I reread it just the other day. This is another symptom," Twilight said, trying to return to searching but Rainbow Dash was rubbing against her harder now. "Rainboooohhhhh," she cooed. At once she began blushing at the sound she had made. "I'm sorry," Rainbow Dash whispered. "It's okay," Twilight would be lying if she said she didn't like what was happening. She had wished for something like this to happen ever since she had first laid eyes on the multicolored mane. Something wasn't right. Something was ruining the dream. It wasn't the fact Rainbow Dash was obviously sick, or the fact her friend was a carnivore. It was probably the metal blades slicing her throat open. The sensation of the pegasus nuzzling the back of her neck made Twilight almost completely unaware of the warm blood flowing down her front. "Sorry," Was the last thing Twilight Sparkle ever heard. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "What is so important you had to wake us up at 3 in the morning to see?" Sweetie Belle asked, rubbing her eyes. "I can't really describe it," Scootaloo said. The trio was on their cloud, rushing across Ponyville towards the club house. "Well it better be important. Applejack'll have mah hide if she finds out Ah snuck out a bed," Apple Bloom protested. "It won't be a problem," Scootaloo replied. Not for long, anyway - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Hey Pinkie," Rainbow Dash said bluntly. The pink pony woke up to three metal blades in her face. Beyond them sat the familiar blue pegasus picking her teeth with something. She turned when she saw the terra pony was awake and tossed aside what she was picking her teeth with. Pinkie cringed when she saw the broken purple horn. "Maybe you can help me. I'm really hungry, and I have a huge sweet tooth right now." "Is this revenge for Cupcakes? That was totally noncanon!" Pinkie protested. "What? No. I'm just really hungry," Rainbow Dash replied. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "So what is it?" Sweetie Belle asked. They had entered the club house, but it seemed exactly the way they had left it. "Yeah, whah did yah bring us here?" Apple Bloom asked. "Oh I had a good reason," Scootaloo answered. The pegasus stepped into the club house, wings glowing brightly. "It was the only way to save you." For myself. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Hey Rarity," came an annoyed voice. At once the fashion pony awoke, and removed her eye mask. Standing at the foot of her bed was a familiar blue pegasus. What wasn't familiar was the red blood soaking the pony, and the metal blades on her forelegs. "Rainbow Dash, what is the meaning of this? What are you doing in my house?" Rarity demanded. "Twilight was too lean, and Pinkie was far too sweet," Rainbow Dash explained. "I wonder how high society tastes." "What are you talking about?" Rarity demanded. Rainbow Dash got closer. She reared up, and extended both sets of claws. "I love being a griffin so much!" Rainbow Dash cheered, coming down onto the unicorn. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "What do you mean save us?" Sweetie Belle cried. "Rainbow Dash is sick. She's killing and eating other ponies This was the only way I could stop that from happening to you," Scootaloo explained. "What?" Sweetie Belle shrieked. "We gotta stop her!" Apple Bloom shouted. "Whah did yah bring us here fer?" "I brought you here because she's not the only one who's sick," Scootaloo said with a creepy smile. "What?" Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom said together. "We're going to play a game. It's called Scootaloo says. The rules are you have to do what I say. If you don't, you're out of the game. As long as you stay in the game, you stay alive. Sound like fun?" Scootaloo said, still with the creepy smile. "Let's begin. Scootaloo says get on your backs." The other two fillies stared at her wide eyed. Scootaloo's expression changed to one of anger. She stomped over and opened her mouth; Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle just stood in shock. She placed Sweetie Belle's horn in her muzzle and bit down. The horn broke with a sickening crack, and Scootaloo stood there chewing it. Sweetie Belle began crying, and Apple Bloom tried to comfort her. "Scootaloo says get on your backs," Scootaloo repeated. This time they obeyed, but Sweetie Belle kept crying. "Scootaloo says spread your legs." They did so, but looked with fear at their former friend. The pegasus filly got really close to the pair. "Scootaloo says you're going to enjoy this." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fluttershy woke up thirsty early in the morning. Softly she got out of bed, and headed downstairs for a drink of water. She stopped, and screamed when she saw her living room. Every one of her animal friends were dead, slaughtered! Little bodies were strewn everywhere. And in the middle of it all stood a blood red pegasus. "Hey, Fluttershy. Your pets were fun, but I'll bet you'll be more fun," Rainbow Dash said, charging the dainty pegasus. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Well, Apple Bloom, I'm glad you are still in the game," Scootaloo said, letting the white limb fall from her jaws. "Too bad about Sweetie. Still, I'm glad you're still in." "How could yah do this to yer friends?" Apple Bloom cried, not looking at the body beside her. "You know, you're really cute with that bow," Scootaloo said, getting really close now. "I can see why Rainbow Dash likes you earth ponies so much." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Hey, Applejack," came a quiet seductive voice. The farm pony didn't rise. "Hey, Applejack," the voice came again. Still the earth pony slept on. "Hey, Applejack," the voice came a third time, a bit louder. This woke the orange pony up. "What the hay?" she said, seeing a pegasus standing over her. "Hey, Applejack," Rainbow Dash said seductively, staring deep into the earth pony's eyes. "What in tarnnation are ya'll doin' in mah bed, Rainbow?" Applejack demanded. "I just visited all our friends, and thought I should see the hottest mare in Ponyville last," Rainbow Dash replied. "What are yah on about?" Applejack asked. Her eyes shrank when she noticed the fresh blood literally dripping down pegasus's body like she had fallen into a pool of it. Now that she noticed, the bed seemed soaked in the foul stuff. "Twilight was too lean, Pinkie, way too sweet enough, Rarity, too fancy and Fluttershy was bland. but I think you'll make the finest meal. After all, you're always teasing me with that flicking tail of yours," Rainbow Dash said leaning in. "You were begging for this." "Get yerself off a me right now, Rainbow!" Applejack demanded. "Oh I love it when they fight," Rainbow Dash said with a smile. "Let's see how you taste, hmmm?" Rainbow Dash said leaning in. "Maybe you taste like cider?" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "You were right. That was fun," Scootaloo said to the older pegasus. "So how were your friends?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Alright. I'll miss them, but we'll both make new friends in the next town." "We sure will," Rainbow Dash replied. "How was Applejack?" Scootaloo asked. "She had this delightful hint of apples," Rainbow Dash replied. "Why do you think we're not going after each other?" Scootaloo asked. "No idea. Twilight said something about this being caused by eating meat, but I wasn’t really listening." "So were are we going now?" Scootaloo asked, sitting on the older pegasus's back. The pair were flying through the night together. Two cannibals. "Canterlot. We're going to have a royal buffet," Rainbow Dash said with a smile. "Yay! Best mom ever!" Scootaloo cheered. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Lol I love this day. If you like this story, you should check out some of my other works: My tumblr, an alternate universe mixing MLP and Cyborg 009. Forever a Changeling, my new story starring Rainbow Dash as a changeling. Samurai Applejack, a drastically different kind of story. It’s rated mature for violence and some suggestive lines. Night of the Werepony, what I consider to be my worst story, but it’s my most popular. It’s just one chapter long.
