Applejack is warned by her friends of a convicted serial killer on the loose and is invited to stay over at the library to be safe. Being the only one left to look after the farm, she stays at Sweet Apple Acres with her dog and lifelong pal, Winona. With one of Winona's reassuring licks, Applejack had nothing to fear or does she?

A Note from the Author (Winonatank):

My first fan-fiction here and also my first dark one - I don't usually write these kinds of stories. A good opportunity to explore genres though and now that's fun.
Anyways, this is based on an idea by C0NN3X105 who beholds quite an imagination. Actually, it's based on that Urban Legend, "The Licked Hand" only ponified.
Characters may be out-of-character but that's fan-fiction for you and I make a lot of mistakes (and that's why spell-check was invented).
I really don't know what to else to say. Read on if you dare to bear... Oh how I love things that rhyme.

Okay, okay, okay. I see what you did there. I heard about this story in school, but you ponified it!
A girl is going to bed, and every night, her dog would lick her palm. One night, he licked her palm lick, lick. She went to bed, but she started to hear some water dripping. She goes downstairs, not there. She checks all around the house for the leaking, but it was in her bathroom. When she walked into her bathroom, the dripping was actually the dog's blood falling from the ceiling. She screamed in horror, and ran into her room. On the windowsill, while it was the window was open, layed a note saying "PSYCHOS LICK TOO!" She checked under her bed, and nothing was there.
It went something like that, but nice use of that story!

i think i heard of one recently where it was and old women i think.. and the message was "people can lick to"
989026 It changes, what I wrote is what I was told.
Yeah, I've heard of this story too. But for the end it was "Written in the dog's blood on her mirror was "Humans can lick too."" Or something.
Anyways, good idea to use that story.

and the message was on the mirror in blood to
989039 I wonder how stories change like that?
989044
the thing is.. i cant remember where i heard the story
989050 I remember I heard it at school from my friends.
989055
i think i found it on creepypas no wait it was a different scary story site for the more known scary stories
I'm sorry, never heard this story before.
And as far as killing people is fine and dandy with me, doing that to animals is...
Especially poor little Winona
I've got it in a book of urban legends...though my version has it as the Jersey Devil. Fairly standard stuff, really, plays to any number of human fears. Dogs are basically the highest level companion most people have that will lick, so we have loss of companionship. The fact that the killer/madman/devil can enter, kill the animal, and leave, all without the victim realizing adds the possibility that "they did it once, what's to stop them doing it again."
Oh, and yeah, notice how in every variant (at least, that I've ever seen), its a woman in the bed. Alone. While a male invader uses his tongue on her. Ever so terribly suggestive.
As to the story...not bad, but...no offense, its too derivative. If you're going to do this kind of story, you need to change something, make it so that people can't recite it more or less from memory. Besides which, it probably would have worked better with Fluttershy/Angel or even Rarity/Opal.
I also heard of this story.
And Im intrigued to see where this goes. (And also a bit happy since I really liked the story.)

I can't be the only one?
I remember the nightmares I got after hearing ths story in the 3rd grade.
AIEEE NOOO
I didn't except any comments but thanks to everyone anyway. They're such fun to read. Thank you.
988978
Thanks and ditto. I've heard many variations too.
989085
I know, and I feel terrible for killing Winona.
989120
Suggestive? Definitely, I agree with you on that. Yeah, I figured it was quite derivative. I wrote this from what I can remember of that Urban Legend. Thanks for your honest opinions by the way. And yes, I was contemplating on Fluttershy/Angel before. I will probably continue this if ever an idea comes to mind.
989164
You're not the only one.
ooh, yup, I saw the title and thought it might be an adaptation of that story, first time I ever heard it was at church camp.
Poor precious puppy.....
but I do think Winona was the most likely choice, and I don't think you could use angle, I do suppose rabbits lick or gently nibble fingers on occasion but often if they like you they.... do other things....

yeah.... um no, just no

Hah, I see...
you forgot to add:
and in the mirror, she saw the reflection of the murderer

I think we've heard of different variations but I'll consider adding that in the first chapter. Thanks for the starter.
Why is this marked as 'incomplete' and the only chapter just described as a 'prologue'?
The story is already finished.
What's gonna happen next? IT'S UP TO YOU, to find out! dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_rainbowkiss_flip.png

I may (or may not) continue this so I left it incomplete. This is the just the beginning...
991187
Exactly.

Ohh, I'm sorry about that.
1003332 Oh cool. Ditto to that.
990716 I will be writing a continuation of this. It was my idea after all.
