Curses of Honesty

Apple Bloom stood at the entrance to Sunny Town, she had been wanting to talk with Mitta again for some time now and had finely found the town again. Apple Bloom reached up and removed her bow, tying the ribbon that made it up around her right foreleg before entering the cursed town. She didn't make it eight steps before Grey Hoof jumped out, in full cursed form, and took on a fighting stance.
"What brings you back hear Apple Bloom?" he asked sadistically. Apple Bloom was unimpressed.
"ah came ta talk with Mitta 'bout somethin', so none of your business Grey Hoof." Apple Bloom said, her accent fading near the end.
"Brave little filly."
"I have no reason ta be scared." with that, Apple Bloom walked past Grey Hoof, who attacked soon after, only to hit the ground from a sudden, violent, punch. Ignoring the shocked gasps that came from the ponies around her, Apple Bloom walked up to Roneo's house, bucking him out of the way, and entered, going strait to Mitta's room.
The house was pretty bad off, no surprise though, seeing as Apple Bloom saw through the illusion the town had. Apple Bloom bucked several boulders out of her way as she walked, eventually coming to a door, where she simply knocked.

"Come in!" Mitta called, her voice had the demonic echo of her true form.
Apple Bloom pushed open the door and walked over to Mitta, who wasn't bothering to hide her true form. Mitta cried out happily before pulling Apple Bloom into a hug that could and would crush bones. They exchanged greetings, then a laugh after Mitta heard what Apple Bloom had done to Grey Hoof and Roneo. Once that was done, Apple Bloom let her own illusion fade. Her yellow coat reverted to midnight black while her mane and tail became blood-red and her eyes began glowing red, hiding their real appearance. Unlike the other cursed ponies, Apple Bloom didn't have fangs, since she wouldn't need them.
The two talked for a while, relaying storied, even with the curse Mitta had some interesting tales, and talking about their occasional sightings of Ruby, who had made it a point to visit them as often as possible.
"Hey Mita?" Apple Bloom asked a few minutes later, her voice had a slight demonic echo to it now.
"Yeah?" Mitta asked, giving Apple Bloom her attention.
"I've been meanin' ta ask, why don't ya leave Sunny Town, even though ya could?"
"Oh, I guess I'm just scared of how ponies would react to my appearance." Mitta motioned towards her body.
Apple Bloom just nodded as she noted it was late and said her goodbyes. Heading outside, Apple Bloom was met with some of the residents of the town, all in their curse forms and all ready to attack. She just sighed as she pulled a knife out of her saddle bag and started cutting her way through the ponies. Eventually, she stopped at the crumbled gates, which had been intentionally destroyed to prevent her escape, she easily got around it though. On her way back home, Apple Bloom re-tied her bow.

Apple Jack, her coat darker with the Earth-Pony runes along her body glowing; her glowing orange eyes that, unknown to her, matched Twilight's; and her claws out; was walking through the Everfree, she was searching for something to eat. A random pony caught her eye suddenly and she went down low before approaching. Up close, the pony had flesh hanging off its body with bones visible and a red fire burning in its eyes. Must be one of those ponies from that town Apple Bloom was talking about, wonder how they taste she thought as she approached her prey. Once she was close enough, Apple Jack lunged, quickly biting into the pony's neck with her sharpened teeth and ripping a chunk out. She wasn't particularly found of the taste, rotten flesh wasn't the best after all. Taste aside, Apple Jack was happy to find that the pony felt pain, but didn't die. She began ripping more of the flesh off, even biting into some of the bones. after mostly devouring the entire pony, she got off and walked away, cleaning the blood off with her Demon Magic.
Unknown to her, however, a filly with a pink bow and glowing red eyes had watched the entire thing from the bushes. Apple Bloom smiled, whispering "so that's what ya've been hidin' from me." under her breath before reaching into her saddle bags and writing her findings down on a notepad.
