Edit: ... I hate cliffhangers. Hmmm, Lord Nosferatu decided to show himself (Or herself because he is in Fluttershy's body?) huh? This will get very interesting.
“Doctor, I understand what you saw was... unnatural, but are you sure,” Twilight leaned forward, her own lips trembling. “Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake?”
Dammit Twilight how many times do we have to say it?! It. Was. A. VAMPIRE!!!
“...yes,” Twilight sighed, closing her eyes. “I don’t know... what Rarity had become... but all those witnesses said the same story. I have no reason to doubt them.”
“... then is she a vampire?” Dash asked.
Twilight looked ready to deny it, her mouth open to shut it down, but she just growled and shook her head. “I don’t know. Okay?! I don’t know! I don’t know if she’s possessed! I don’t know if she’s got some kind of mental illness! I don’t know if Discord went insane again and decided to just reappear and make her into a pony eating, blood drinking, abomination! I DON’T KNOW”!
You'll know soon enough.
Taking a deep breath, Twilight looked all her remaining friends and gave them a smile. “I’m glad we’re doing this together. I... I really need you girls.” A certain dragon coughed in his claw. “And you too, Spike.”
Again, leaving Spike behind.... Typical.
“Are you sure you wish to capture the mon-I mean Miss Rarity, Princess?” One of the unicorn guards asked, his spear poking nearby bushes. “It would be easier to just kill her.”
I think you know the answer to that question.
“I want that to be a last resort, Corporal,” Twilight replied sternly. She had lost one friend already and she wasn’t going to lose a second. “Whatever condition Rarity is under, I refuse to believe that it cannot be treated if we were to study it carefully and find a cure to her madness.”
Always wanting to use every available option before the last more painful one...I'd expect no less.
“She killed ponies, your Majesty,” he replied back, shaking his head. “By right of law, she should be put to death.”
It wasn't of her own accord you jackass!
“The real Rarity ain’t a mindless killer that murders ponies for insane reasons,” Applejack growled.
Exactly!
“Applejack is right,” Twilight said, nodding her head. “The law states that any pony who committed crimes against their will is found not responsible for those crimes. Just like everypony’s actions when Discord discorded everyone.”
Sounds like a pretty special law.
“Tell that to the families of the dead,” the guard muttered before trotting ahead.
Wow, way to rub it in.
“Meany pants,” Pinkie whispered, but Twilight shook her head.
A very assholish meanie pants.
The group looked up and soon saw why. A giant tree, ripped out of its roots, was heading straight for them. Twilight teleported herself, Pinkie Pie, and one of the guards out of the way while Applejack and two other guards managed to run fast enough to avoid it. One was too stunned at the sight and by the time he managed to get his act together, he had be crushed in an instant.
Been crushed in an instant. Unfinished word there.
Rainbow Dash didn’t often say it, but she had a good sense of sight that could tell her what she needed to know especially when she was flying. Sometimes, she could tell a pony’s character just by looking at them in the eyes. She had looked into the eyes of villains before, each of them unique in their own way. With Nightmare Moon, it was rage and sorrow. Discord’s eyes held madness and cunning. Chrysalis’ eyes always had held a gaze of lust and envy.
Wow...Dash really can read emotions, cant she?
No, what she looked at this time was pure bucking evil.
Evil from the very depths of Tartarus itself.
The voice of Pinkie Pie alerted the two as she, a frightened looking Twilight and a stunned guard rushed into the area. The two froze upon seeing their former friend who was now eyeing them with a lustful and hungry gaze. “Run!” shouted Rainbow Dash, struggling to get up. “She’s... she’s not normal!”
“Dashie! It’s okay! I got this!” Pinkie shouted as she smiled at her with a nod. Her hair managed to poof up a little as she looked at Twilight, hesitantly doing nothing. “Let me try to speak to her?”
Are you insane Pinkie Pie?! Rarity will rip your throat out!!!
“She’s our friend, Twilight! I know we can reach into her! No matter how badly she needs Dry Eyes,” Pinkie replied as she faced an emotionless Rarity. Slowly, she began to walk forward as Rainbow stood still and unsure of what to do. She wanted to tell Pinkie Pie to get out of there, or drag her away, but she was worried about what this... evil Rarity would do.
So am I.
I just hope she does something Pinkish to not get any of us killed, Dash hoped.
Me too.
“Rarity, it’s me... Pinkie Pie,” the party pony slowly said, raising her hoof as if to calm her. “Remember? Me, Twilight, and the other girls? You’re friends? What about your sister, Sweetie Belle? She’s really worried for you.” This actually made Rarity flinch a bit. “See, you remember. And you know who I am. You’re my friend. I made all those Birthday parties for you! I’ve even thrown “You’re Still Awesome” parties when your made mistakes in your designs!” She was now fully smiling while getting closer and closer. To her credit, Rarity hadn’t acted at all and was just watching Pinkie Pie with her cold, red eyes.
Careful Pinkie Pie....
“I don’t know what’s wrong, but the Rarity I know... the Rarity you are... she wouldn’t want to do this. I know something is wrong. She’s a sweet, gentle, and generous mare whose made some amazing designs that made everyone’s life happier! In a way, you’re just like me! Only less candy, balloons, streamers, pinatas, cakes, cupcakes, pies-”
NOT THE TIME PINKIE!!!
And then Rarity twisted her hooves as Pinkie’s head suddenly snapped in the opposite direction as the sound of a spine breaking echoed in Rainbow Dash and Twilight’s ears. The legs of the pink pony sumbled for a bit before falling to her side with a surprised look on its face. Yet her eyes hold no mirth, only a lifeless gaze.
...
...
...
...
...
No...NO....NOOOOOOOOO!!!PINKIIIIIIIIIIIE!!!
They didn’t find the bodies of Diamond Tiara and Tender Taps that night when Dinky screamed about her friends being killed. They assumed the monster devoured them whole, but a much more sinister and foul outcome seemed to have occurred that none could have for seen. She knew a dead pony when she saw a dead pony, and Diamond Tiara and Tender Taps were quite dead. Yet as they continued to feast on the remains of their new victims, it was clear that they were not as dead as they should have been.
So...DT and TT were turned too....
Applejack watched in silent horror as the bodies began to fix their bones and slowly repair themselves as if nothing happened. The sound of a neck twisting back to its right position made AJ wince before realizing she was going to get attacked again. Realizing she needed to make sure they stayed down permanently, Applejack decided to charge first.
Wow...hyper speed regeneration and repairing of bones...!!! Yikes!!!
An added bonus was achieved when the potion shattered in the walking corpse as the liquid soon became aflamed with oxygen. In an instant, Diamond Tiara was lit on fire from her head to her tail as she shrieked in agony, wailing her limbs around in a futile effort to stop the flames. Gasping for breath, Applejack backed up as she saw the corpse filly slowly fall to the ground motionless, burning slowly to ash.
Rest now Diamond Tiara...Tender Taps...be angry no more....
That was all Twilight's brain could think as she saw the corpse on the ground of the once smiling party pony whose head was twisted and spine broken. The first pony she actually met in Ponyville. The one who always stood by her even in the worst of times. Always making a joke, a laugh, or a party to ensure that no matter how dark things got there was always a smile to shine through. Pinkie Pie had brought the joy of love and life to all she came across.
The very life of the party....
She couldn’t hold back anymore. She had enough. Enough death. Enough loss. Enough was enough. Fluttershy. Roseluck. Porky Peirce. Twist. Tender Taps. Diamond Tiara. Silver Spoon. Rumble. Nurse Redheart.
So many wonderful ponies...all gone...at the hooves of one of the six meant to keep them safe....
No more! NO MORE! NO BUCKING MORE!
TEAR THAT MONSTER APART!!!
“BUCK YOU!”
Three in each limb.
“BUCK YOU TO TARTARUS!”
Two in the chest.
“YOU BUCKING MURDER!
A single one between the legs.
“JUST! BUCKING!”
Two in the head.
“DIE!”
An one in the throat for good measure.
One stab each for the ponies that were killed....
Roaring with rage, she trapped the murder in her telekinesis before throwing her hard into the ground over and over again to make a huge crater. Flying in the air, she created purple swords with her magic and shot them one by one into the body of the beast that lay before her.
Murderer. Another little mistake there...
“You... you can’t... I don’t...” Twilight gasped, struggling to get up, but the sight of what should be a corpse still walking towards had all but paralyzed her nerves. “Monster... monster...”
Walking towards her.
Garlic?
Garlic?
The creature that held her friend’s skin began to hack out blood, eyes turning bloodshot as the skin began to pale. It was hurting her. The garlic was actually hurting her. Something so harmless was a terror to this thing that her magic was all but immune too.
Whoa....
A figure jumped between them, sheltered by the aroma. The black and white stripes were all that Twilight needed to see to recognize that the one who was saving her was Zecora. Rarity, glaring with hatred in her eyes, snarled at the unflinching zebra who slowly reached into her cloak and pulled out a large braided necklace. It held wooden carved charms and dead animal bones on it. “Mabaya roho Hayawi! Kutupwa tena kwenye vivuli na kamwe kurudi! Kutuma wao kurudi katika eneo lako kulaaniwa! Hayawi milele zaidi! Mabaya roho Hayawi!” she chanted which seemed to cause Rarity to freeze up and struggle as if she was having a stroke. She continued to hiss even as Zecora repeated the chant over and over until she was directly above Rarity’s spit giving face.
ZECORA!!!
Then, in the blink of an eye, Zecora pulled out a wooden stake and slammed it right into Rarity’s chest.
K-O!!!
“I am sorry, Rarity. For a peaceful sleep, I now give to thee.”
Sleep now Rarity...be angry no more....
“Garlic is like poison to these creatures of darkness. Not enough to kill, but enough to make them harmless,” Zecora explained before lifting her charm. “A holy charm called a grigri from my homeland. A prayer to ward off evil that is so simple and yet results are so grand.”
Thank Faust.
Garlic. Charms. Prayers.
If Twilight had the strength, she would have denied such things yet her eyes saw them work as clear as day.
Do you see it now Twilight? Do you finally see the truth you've been trying to deny for so long?
“And while your magic is enough to make anything expire,” Zecora said, looking into Twilight’s confused eyes. “I’m afraid a blow to the heart or cutting off the head is needed to kill a vampire.”
And now it begins to hit home....
Vampire.
That word again.
That word that she ignored ever since she first heard it.
Yet can no longer anymore.
How many times did she dismiss it?
Too many.
How many times did she roll her eyes when Dinky, Zecora, or Spike suggested the possibility?
Kids these day should really be listened to more.
Celestia had told her that vampires were not real.
Another one of her lies.
Because Rarity had turned into a vampire.
Right in front of your eyes.
Falling to her haunches, Twilight lowered her head and felt like a veil had been lifted from her eyes. A veil that now opened her to the possibility that everything she once knew about this world was wrong. Vampires were real. Did that mean werewolves too? Zombies? Gods? Souls? Heaven and hell?
Like Tempest said...Open Up Your Eyes....
The logical and reasonable world she had build for herself over the years had crumbled like a cracker. I thought it was all fake... just supernatural fiction ponies told each other over the years... not seeing the reality we all lived in. And yet... I was the one who was blind.
And now you finally see the truth....
“W-wait a sec,” Rainbow Dash said, speaking up as she continued to hold Pinkie’s body. “If... if Rarity was a vampire... then doesn’t that mean... Fluttershy...”
You got it at last Rainbow.
“I was wondering when you were going to figure it out.”
And the timing could not be better!!!
It was the source of all this evil.
The evil that took away you're friend...and the evil Twilight had created.
HALLEUJAH!!!!!!!!! We've been going nuts waiting for a new chapter ! Now at last, we can read the action in all its bloody glory! This was definitely worth the wait.
And then Rarity twisted her hooves as Pinkie’s head suddenly snapped in the opposite direction as the sound of a spine breaking echoed in Rainbow Dash and Twilight’s ears. The legs of the pink pony sumbled for a bit before falling to her side with a surprised look on its face. Yet her eyes hold no mirth, only a lifeless gaze.
So sad what happened to Pinkie . How is her family going to take this?

I honestly did NOT expect the vampire Diamond and Tender ! I thought they were dead too! It makes you wonder just how many others Nosferatu has turned. Are Roseluck, Pokey and the others going to rise up?

BADASS ZEBRA!!! WOOOOO!!!!!!

It was like being a filly again. Not knowing anything about the world that was big and scary. For the first time in a long time, Twilight Sparkle was scared because she was facing something she knew nothing about out of her own ignorance. Suddenly, it seemed as if she was nothing more than an insignificant speck in a darker world that had shadows around every corner.
The logical and reasonable world she had build for herself over the years had crumbled like a cracker. I thought it was all fake... just supernatural fiction ponies told each other over the years... not seeing the reality we all lived in. And yet... I was the one who was blind.
She's finally snapped. How is she going to react upon seeing Celestia and Luna, the former especially? Is she going to attack her, blame her (which she kinda IS to blame as much as Twilight is). Also, if she finds out it was HER spell that caused all this technically, then what? Will RAINBOW and APPLEJACK blame her for all this (Rainbow maybe, but AJ? IDK...)
“I was wondering when you were going to figure it out.”
The three of them all turned around to a voice they hadn’t heard in a long time. Twilight felt her heart sink as she saw what she had dreamed of in her deepest desires yet what she looked at was not the Fluttershy she knew.
It was the source of all this evil.
It finally happens. Coming face to face with a demon. The source of all your pain.
Can't wait for the next chapter, plus the other artwork. Keep up the good work. Hope to see an (eventual) update.
“She killed ponies, your Majesty,” he replied back, shaking his head. “By right of law, she should be put to death.”
I would think the idea is to capture if possible so a trail can take place instead of just killing outright. Unless Equestria is different.
And then Rarity twisted her hooves as Pinkie’s head suddenly snapped in the opposite direction as the sound of a spine breaking echoed in Rainbow Dash and Twilight’s ears. The legs of the pink pony sumbled for a bit before falling to her side with a surprised look on its face. Yet her eyes hold no mirth, only a lifeless gaze.
RIP Pinkie Pie and Rarity. This story just can't get any worse, especially when Twilight Sparkle was holding back her beliefs whether or not vampires exist. I wonder why the author didn't include "death" and "horror" as topics, when it occurred throughout this story?
9386090 Yeah, it was Twilight's spell that caused all of this to happen, and AJ pushing Fluttershy so hard into using the Stare on them for Twilight to do her spell. In the original episode, they just had them not like apples anymore, which would've led to the Vampire Fruit Bats starving to death! In this one, Twilight was a lot more smarter in the spell she used and turned them into regular Fruit Bats, which apparent the apples don't have problems with, but the essence of the Vampire was still alive, thus corrupting Fluttershy. I really wish that the girls found some other alternative, like having Fluttershy make the Vampire Fruit Bats make a truce with the Fruit Bats and share their part of the orchard. Maybe if they did that, then none of this would've happened!
9392671 I have multiple other Fanfics besides this one and besides MLP ones. I have to pay the artist for all the artwork that goes with this which is at least $75 minimum each price. And I have to spend my time job hunting in updating my resume so I can continue my career

all of this is twilights fault. hers and AJs
so i wonder how they will feel about that

Oh shit!

Alright, imma be straight with this, when do you think next chapter gonna come out? Cuz I wanna read it already.

Not for maybe three months?
9392663
...
THREE MONTHS???
Ok, I do get that you do have other things to do than just writing up a chapter, but seriously. Three. months.

Well take your time.
(Pulls out pillow, blanket, and lawn chair)
I be sleeping till you do, RP
Sigh... Its only February. Kill me Nosferatu
One more month... Cmon you can wait...
NO I CANT SOMEONE HALP
Only now do you understand the price of your ignorance, Twilight.
Also Celestia, fuck you!
