The sun was low in the sky as a mare stood blocking the entrance to an alleyway. She had a sinister smirk on her muzzle and her eyes just screamed, kill, kill, kill. One step, then another, then another. She was humming a tone to herself slowly making her way through the dimly lit alley. The only light was from the fires in the houses above and the moon. You could hear her hooves clopping on the wet cobble stone that lined the streets.
In the back of the alleyway a rich noble pony was cowering against the brick wall. His clothes were torn and in some places bloody, and his mane was sopping wet and matted. His green eyes were flicking from the mare to the streets behind her. He was frozen in place stricken with fear. He knew this pony from somewhere but he couldn't place his hoof on it.
The mare whispered something inaudible and the stallion looked at her confusion covering his face. "Pardon?" He asked her seeming to gain back some of his lost composer.
Again her whisper was just that a whisper. "I still didn't catch that." The stallion said stopping his shuddering.
"Love," The last part was cut off and now the mare was just a tail length away.
"Love? Love what?" He asked looking her in the eyes. That was his one mistake, he looked right into her steel blue eyes. They pierced right through his soul and once again he was stopped dead in his tracks. He couldn't move, his body wouldn't move. It seemed as if just a flick of the eye, just one movement was enough to kill.
"Love me." She cooed at him. He began to shake once again. Now he knows just who this pony is. He began to slowly shake his head, his whole body shivering with fear.
"Love me!" She commanded him. He was having a staring contest with the Pirate Mare known as Flutter "Soulgazer" Shy; and he was losing.
"LOVE ME!" She screamed at him her spit spraying him in the face like an ocean breeze, but worse.
This only made Fluttershy more angry. She began to repeatedly yell love me while looking him dead in the eyes. The stallion was a wreck now sinking to the floor and tears cascading down his muzzle. All he could do was violently shake his head in protest. This was how they all die. All of those poor souls. Every last one. They all die by her hoof, as she is screaming love me in their face.
The mare screamed one last time and with that the stallion felt a swift pressure swipe across his neck. He began to cough and sputter, collapsing to the ground. His eyes grew wide as he pressed a hoof to his throat which now is spurting blood at an alarming rate. He coughed and gagged, choking on his own blood. A pitiful death for anypony, and it just so happened he was the pony that this was happening to. He tried to pull in air to his lungs but the only air he got was mixed with blood. Tears fell down his face as he squeezed his eyes shut. How did it happen? When did she strike him?
He was laying in a dying heap on the floor the life quickly leaving him. That was when he saw it. Two white little feet that hopped right in front of him. She was not alone, she never was. She didn't kill him, that thing did. That thing is the one that delivers the final blow. The killer.
His eyes glassed over and his body stopped moving all together. The two white little feel belonged to Angel "The Devil" Bunny. Fluttershy's right hand creature. The little thing jumped on her back and Fluttershy grabbed the mane of the stallion in her mouth and dragged his body into the nighttime streets of Canterlot. She passed by one of her Wanted posters that was hanging on the wall beside the alleyway where she struck the Noblepony. She placed a hoof on the neck of the Stallion soaking it in blood. She took her now bloodied hoof and placed it triumphantly on the sign marking she killed here, then she ripped the sign down. They then trotted with the stallion and poster in mouth to the town square. Fluttershy struggled up the stairs of the center of the square but when she did make it up she placed her Trophy on the head of the fountain. She stuck the poster with a nail Angel Bunny was carrying into the chest of the stallion marking him as another kill.
Beat that Red Rainbow. She thought triumphantly to her self as she marveled her work. The light yellow pegasus stretched her wings and took of to the sky landing on a building just a little farther away. She wanted to be there to see the faces of those stupid ponies as they saw a rich and powerful Noblepony dead and strung up like a display. She giggled at herself giving a hoofbump to Angel for his hard work.
They waited on that rooftop for what seemed like hours. Once daylight reached the sky and the first mare stepped onto the streets Fluttershy heard a bloodcurdling scream. She giggled looking down at the mare, collapsed on the ground in a heap. That mare was most likely either the wife or superspecial somepony that was betrothed to the Noblepony. Other townsponies rushed out to see what the commotion was. Many mares screamed in sheer horror while the Mayor of the Town yelled at the ponies to go and find whoever did this. In that flurry of chaos and mayhem Fluttershy and Angel both found it glorious. These ponies were terrified of her and that is what she wanted. She wanted to be the mare that was never caught. This was her town and she was in command, however, it seemed she had to move on. Canterlot is so bland they never get the joke behind the kills.
That stallion for one was rasing the taxes for no reason and he was cheating on his superspecial somepony. The mare last week was a murderer that just got away with it. The last mayor was a hoarder. Don't even get her started on the first kill. He was all of the above and worse he tortured poor innocent mares before creating heinous acts on them then killing them. She was doing this city a favor and they put the poster and bounty on her head.
She gave a huge sigh before taking to the skies on flight to Pony Harbors. Why Pony Harbors? Well it was where all the best compotition is.
It took Fluttershy over a day to fly to Pony Harbors with Angel on her back. She saw only ocean and the occasional ship that the ponies below just waved at her. Oh Sailsmen so cute yet so naive.
Once her hooves touched the docks of the Harbor she trotted down to hear a pony yell in a high pitched voice, "Rainbow!" Fluttershy slowly walked down the docks to see a pink mare with an orange earthpony mare right beside her. Then Fluttershy saw her, "Red" Rainbowdash. The one pony that she was compeating with for the most kills on her head and the highest bounty. Fluttershy trotted up to the three Angel burying himself in her pastel pink mane, Angel never really had a linking to Rainbow.
"'Red Rainbow' Dash," She said a bit of snark in her tone.
"Flutter 'Soulgazer' Shy." Rainbow spat back.
"Captain Pinkamena D. Pie!" The pink mare screamed in joy bouncing up and down.
Fluttershy gave her a glare before turning to the annoying maned Rainbow pony. "What are you even doing here?"
"I was here for another brawl but Pinkamena came along and asked me to join her crew, the rest is history." She said walking over to the pink coated captain.
"Ha, then I won't have to compete with another solo pirate. I have the highest kill list of a loner." Fluttershy giggled giving a small skip.
"You're a loner pirate too? Why don't you join my crew as well!" The Captain giggled jumping for joy. Fluttershy stared at her confusion knocking thoughts around in her head. Why would she ask me to be apart of her crew? Why would I want to be apart of her crew? Why am I even considering this? Those were few of many.
"Think of it like you can still have a friendly rivalry but in my crew. Your kill count in the crew will start over and you can out match each other there." Pinkamena suggested her curly mane bouncing as she moved.
"Why would I even consider this?" Fluttershy asked.
"Why wouldn't you? You get to be apart of a crew that will have your back, get a friendly rivalry again, and have me as a Captain!" She giggled bouncing.
"Again why would I consider this?" Flutter asked again.
The Pink Captain's mane deflated a bit and looked down, "Because I need a crew to get back my ship, and three ponies isn't enough hooves to help me." She said.
"I won't join." Flutter said walking away, "especially not with her." She flicked her tail and walked into town.
Fluttershy came across a tavern that she walked into. Two Cider's Tavern. Was it's name and Fluttershy immediately walked over to the bar. She sat down and ordered a hard cider. The bartender nodded and filled one stein up with telekenisis and handed the mare the drink. Fluttershy began to drink the cider when a Stallion walked over to her.
"What is a pirate like you doing in our humble tavern?" He asked whispering it in Fluttershy's ear. She shivered and looked behind her. "Especially with a rat like this?" Fluttershy got out of her seat and quickly turned to him. He stumbled back a bit bumping into a mare at a table. She yelled at him for a bit then Fluttershy walked over to him and got right in his face.
"Don't be a Big Meanie." She said turning and smacking him with her tail.
Walking out of the tavern Fluttershy quickly walked behind the building and into the alleyway behind. She waited, and waited for an eternity before the stallion walked out when the moon was the highest in the sky. He was obviously drunk and that was when Fluttershy tailed him. She hid in the shadows only moving when he rounded a corner. The drunken fool stumbled into an alleyway and that was when Fluttershy made her move. One step, then another, then another. She was humming a tone to herself slowly making her way through the dimly lit alley. The only light was from the fires in the houses above and the moon.
The mare whispered something inaudible and the stallion looked at her confusion covering his face.
"Love," The last part was cut off and now the mare was just a tail length away.
"Love? Love what?" He asked looking her in the eyes. That was his one mistake, he looked right into her steel blue eyes. They pierced right through his soul and once again he was stopped dead in his tracks. He couldn't move, his body wouldn't move. It seemed as if just a flick of the eye, just one movement was enough to kill.
"Love me." She cooed at him. He began to shake once again. Now he knows just who this pony is. He began to slowly shake his head, his whole body shivering with fear.
"Love me!" She commanded him. He was having a staring contest with the Pirate Mare known as Flutter "Soulgazer" Shy; and he was losing.
"LOVE ME!" She screamed at him her spit spraying him in the face like an ocean breeze, but worse.
This only made Fluttershy more angry. She began to repeatedly yell love me while looking him dead in the eyes. The stallion was now a wreck now he sunk to the floor and tears cascading down his muzzle. This was how they all die. All of those poor souls. Every last one. They all die by her hoof, as she is screaming love me in their face. He thought shaking.
The mare screamed one last time and with that the stallion felt a swift pressure swipe across his neck. He began to cough and sputter, collapsing to the ground. His eyes grew wide as he pressed a hoof to his throat which now is spurting blood at an alarming rate. He coughed and gagged, choking on his own blood. A pitiful death. He thought crying profusely. He tried to pull in air to his lungs but the only air he got was mixed with blood. Tears fell down his face as he squeezed his eyes shut. How did it happen? When did she strike me?
He was laying in a dying heap on the floor the life quickly leaving him. That was when he saw it. Two white little feet that hopped right in front of him. That rat, that bunny was The Killer.
His eyes glassed over and his body stopped moving all together. Fluttershy smirked before doing her same routine of finding a Poster, stamping it and nailing it to the poor chap as they lay dead in the square.
After placing the stallion in just the perfect way Fluttershy heard the sound of hooves behind her and she turned her head. Behind her was the same annoying Pink Coated Captain.
"That was a great kill. I didn't even know that the bunny was the one who did it." She said glancing at the stallion. "We could really use a swift killer like the two of you. You could even perfect that little trick on my ship, as we travel. Heck your charms could help us commandeer a ship in the first place."
For once Fluttershy was actually considering it. She looked at Pinkamena and nodded, "fine. I will travel with you."
