MONDAY

"Okay so... this is day 1 of our visit and well we haven't gotten there yet we're still in Celestia's carriage. We are going to visit the Haunted mansion near the outskirts of Canterlot." Rainbow put the camera towards Twilight

"Well it's not going to be your average overnight tour. Remember, Celestia said it would be another hour before we get there." Twilight then takes the camera and points it to Applejack

"Well by the time we get there it'll be nighttime!" Applejack then gives the camera back to Rainbow Dash

"All the fun to make it even scarier!" Rainbow laughed at her own joke

*One Hour Later*

"Okay we're here!" Celestia motioned for the trio to get their belongings

"Wow! I didn't expect the mansion to be THIS big!" Rainbow looked around the grounds. Indeed the property was big.

"Alright I'm off! Have fun with your stay!" And Celestia took off

"Uh...You go first. I'll make sure no one sneaks up on us." From the looks on Twilight's face you could tell she was terrified

"Your such a coward Twi. Come on! I bet it has a library in there!" Rainbow then pushed Twilight inside

As Rainbow Dash pushed Twilight inside she saw a painting of a stallion with a monocle on it's right eye.

'Ok Twilight stay calm you have your friends with you. You won't... Hey a book!' Twilight went up to the book that was laying on the table near the front door

"Wow look at all this stuff." Applejack was going through the items near the table

"Probably for the investigations. So what does the book say?" Rainbow looked at the book

"Let's see... The history of this mansion is very old. In fact it's been stated that this mansion was the most haunted mansion in all of Equestria." Twilight continued to read the other words out loud

"In the past there were numerous reports of murder, suicide, and illness. Ponies that have visited the house have experienced huge headaches while looking around the house. If you aren't careful you will end up killing yourself while you visit. One report states that a little filly was murdered in this very house. It's spirit still lingers looking for the pony that murdered it." Twilight could barely read those last words so Rainbow Dash decided to read the rest.

"The Pool creature... Many ponies that have been in the pool have said they had their back legs pulled or scratched. The creature that attacked the ponies is still a mystery.

"The Basement... It's never a good idea to go in the basement alone. Rumors say that an evil spirit will steal your soul if you drop your guard. No one is ever found once they disappear." Rainbow started to grow cold after reading the last sentence so Applejack read the final Part.

"The Master's Bedroom... Visitors say if you stay in this bedroom for more than 10 minutes you will start to see the ghost of the past owner of the house. Rumor has it that during the morning when you look at the bedroom window you will see it is open. And you will unusually hear a piano playing when no one is inside."

"The Kitchen... Most of the activity is in this room. Because most deaths occur here you will often hear footsteps and voices in the room... Looks like we're going to have the ride of our lives!" Applejack then closed the book and took her belongings.

"Uh... where are you going?" Twilight asked while gathering the equipment for the nightly investigations

"To find a room for us to sleep! If we're going to stay here we got to have a place to sleep!" Applejack then motioned her friends to follow.

As the three friends walked through the hallways Rainbow spotted a perfect room.

"How about this one?" Rainbow then opened the door. What luck! 3 beds perfectly laid out.

"Yep! This is where we will sleep!" Applejack then sat down and went through her stuff.

*Footsteps*

"What the *bleep* is that?" Rainbow was looking around to find the source of the noise

"Shh! Be quiet!" As Twilight motioned for everyone to be silent the footsteps stopped

"Holy *bleep* that was scary." Just saying this caused a direct smack to the face

"Can you just go one day without swearing Rainbow?" Applejack gave Rainbow a glare before going back to her stuff.

"Sorry..." Rainbow just layed on her bed and stared at the ceiling

"Alright let's get some sleep." Twilight then turned off the lights

"Wait... Why don't we investigate before we sleep?" Rainbow then turned the lights back on

"Fine. But for only an hour." Applejack then got the equipment and gave it to Twilight and Rainbow

"Remember. Only an hour." Applejack then went outside the room for the investigation.

"Come on Twilight. Are you coming?" Twilight put the equipment back and gave a no in response so Rainbow went to join Applejack

"Where's Twilight?" Applejack looked behind Rainbow and saw Twilight in bed

"She said she doesn't want to come." Rainbow looked behind her just in case

"Typical... C'mon. Let's explore." Applejack then went downstairs. Rainbow Dash soon followed

"This is just too creepy... I mean who would live in here?" Rainbow looked at Applejack but she wasn't there

"What the? Applejack where are you?" Rainbow looked all over then she heard Applejack's voice

"Over here! I found something." Rainbow Dash followed Applejack's voice and ended up at the exact same spot where she saw that painting.

"Rainbow, wasn't that monocle on the right eye?" Applejack then pointed at the painting.

"Yeah... Why? What's wrong?" Then Rainbow took a look at the painting. The monocle was now on the left eye.

"No. No way that happened. That's a painting! Paintings don't move by themselves!" She looked a little harder... Indeed the monocle was part of the painting.

"That's only part of it. Look at the book." Applejack then opened the book for Rainbow to see

The letters in the book were circled. It seemed that the letters made 2 words

"G - E - T - O - U - T... GET OUT." Just saying the 2 words sent a chill up both up the 2 pony's spines.

11:30 PM

"This is just way too freaky." Rainbow looked around but saw nothing out of the ordinary

*Running footsteps and a scream is heard*

"That's Twilight!" Suddenly both ponies sprinted upstairs and saw Twilight in the hallway crying.

"Twilight are you alright?" Rainbow looked up but saw nothing that could've made Twilight burst into tears

"I-I-I saw a little filly next to my bed..." Just saying this made both ponies ice cold

"T-t-the filly asked if I saw her mother..." Twilight started to cry even harder

"Applejack..." Rainbow gave Applejack the signal to cancel the investigation.

"Alright. Let's just go to sleep." Then all three ponies went inside the room, closed the door, turned off the lights, and went to sleep.

TUESDAY

*Twilight's Video Diary*

"Ok so I might've overreacted last night but I'm telling you right now! I really did see a little filly in that room with me! And to think I would get a break from all my work..." *Facehoof*

*Rainbow Dash's Video Diary*

"First time I've seen Twilight break down like that. But I have a feeling this isn't going to be the only time one of us freaks out." *Looks out the window* "What the -

*Applejack's Video Diary*

"Meh. I didn't see anything that was scary last night. ....Okay fine. Well after what Twilight said about the little filly I'm still making sure I don't lose my mind." *Applejack twiddles with her hooves*

*yawn* "What the... Where is everyone?" Rainbow sniffed the air before realizing they were in the kitchen

"Alright! Smells like Applejack is cooking!" And Rainbow dashed down the stairs tripping at the last step

"Whoa! Oof!" Luckily the Kitchen was near the stairs so Twilight saw Rainbow fall down the stairs.

"Thanks Twilight." Rainbow checked the table. Food was already there.

"You need to watch your step Rainbow. Your lucky you didn't crack your neck there." Rainbow just made a face at her in response

"Turns out there's no apples in the refrigerator so I decided to make pancakes." Applejack looks back at the pan to make sure the pancakes don't burn.

"Sounds fine to me!" Rainbow said as she sat down to enjoy

DURING THEIR CONVERSATION. A VOICE WAS HEARD. THE THREE DID NOT HEAR IT.

*Playback*

"Turns out there's no apples in the refrigerator so i decided to make pancakes."

"I'm going to kill you all."

"Sounds fine to me!"

*Back in Reality*

"Wow. I think the pancakes you made topped Pinkies's Pancakes." Rainbow looked out the window to look at the scenery

"But of course! I needed the perfect temperature for each pan-" Was all Applejack said before Rainbow bolted out the front doors

"Hey you! Who are you and what are you doing here?!" Applejack and Twilight just watched through the window as Rainbow was talking to nothing

"I think she's lost it." Applejack just looked at Twilight

"Seriously? In the first 2 days? I don't think so." They both look out the window and Rainbow isn't there anymore

"You got to be kidding me..." Applejack then motioned Twilight to follow her

They checked everywhere in the front yard. No sign of her.

"I bet she's around back." So Twilight and Applejack went around back. Sure enough they found Rainbow still talking to nothing.

"Come on! You aren't scared are you? Come at me! Give me your best shot!" It seemed like Rainbow was fighting something but when Applejack and Twilight went over to get a better look they still saw nothing.

"*bleep*. Why did you do that? I was so close to having the fight of my life!" Rainbow had turned around with an annoyed look on her face

"What are you talking about?" Whatever Rainbow saw, it was probably bigger than her.

"I was going to go up against this stallion about twice the height as me. 3 times the length." All Rainbow got in return was weird looks

"Uh... There was no stallion in front of you. If there was, then we would've seen it too." Rainbow then realized she was talking to a ghost.

Rainbow was going to swear again but Applejack's glare prevented that. Suddenly a piano was heard from inside the house.

"Where is that coming from?" They looked at each other and looked at the Master bedroom. The window was open.

"Is someone in the house?" Applejack looked at Twilight and said

"No." All three kept listening to the piano. It sounded sad. Suddenly the music stopped and the window slammed shut.

"I think we made the owner mad." Twilight looked at her friends who agreed with her opinion

The sun was starting to set on the horizon. The three friends decided to go inside. Even if they made the past owner mad.

"So when do you expect the activity to start?" Rainbow looked around the house while still waiting for an answer

"Uh... I think right now." When Applejack and Rainbow turned around to see what Twilight was talking about they saw a knife laying on the floor.

"It's that suicide stuff the book was talking about..." Applejack looked around but saw nothing but the knife

"Or murder." Twilight said while looking at the knife

"Wait a second! This is the knife I used to cut the pancakes!" Twilight started to laugh at her own mistake. Leaving an annoyed Applejack and Rainbow Dash staring at her.

"Geez don't do that again Twi." Rainbow was still annoyed at Twilight for that mistake

"Sorry. How about we investigate the pool?" This question was greeted with a yes so all 3 friends went to the pool to investigate the pool creature incidents.

"You know you can put that knife down Twilight." Applejack was starting to get nervous with Twilight levitating the knife to her head.

"Oops! My bad!" So Twilight levitated the knife down onto a nearby table. The knife was facing towards the wall

As the trio walked into the Pool Room they all got a sudden chill up their spines.

"I feel like something is watching us..." Twilight kept moving through the room until she slipped and fell into the water.

"Twilight!" Rainbow hovered over the water and looked at the water. Twilight then came out of the water.

"T-t-t-t-t-this water is c-c-c-c-cold!" Applejack and Rainbow Dash just laughed at this remark and pulled her out of the water.

"So the pool is not haunted I guess?" Twilight gave a no in response

"The reason why ponies felt their back legs scratched is because the ice cold water sort off burns the legs making it fell like their legs are being scratched." But Applejack then made a confused face

"But what about their legs being pulled?" Twilight then motioned Rainbow to put her hoof in the water.

"WHOA!" *Splash* Rainbow comes to the top of the water moments later

"Stupid drain pulled me down." Rainbow then got out of the water and motioned the other 2 to go to bed

As the trio walked down the hallway they saw the knife Twilight had put down. It was now facing them.

"Um... Twilight? Did you move the knife?" Twilight gave a no in response. Then the knife was flung at them. The knife had hit the door to the pool narrowly missing Applejack.

"RUN!" all three ponies ran upstairs, inside the room and locked the door.

"That was some crazy *bleep*." For once Applejack didn't give Rainbow the look for saying that

*Loud Pounding on the door*

"GO AWAY!" Twilight hid under the covers along with Rainbow and Applejack. Soon after everything stopped.

"Barricade the door, windows, anything! DON'T LET THAT THING GET IN HERE!" So they Covered the windows, Barricaded the door, and hoped that the thing wouldn't come inside.

"Let's... Go... To..... Sleep." And so Rainbow, Twilight, and Applejack fell asleep unaware that the thing was already inside the room.

*All the Cameras turn into static.*

NOTHING IS RECORDED FROM 12:00 AM TO 3:00 AM

WEDNESDAY

4:00 A.M.

*Each pony went outside the room in different spots to do their video diaries*

*Twilight's Video Diary*

"Okay from what I just saw yesterday I do NOT want to be in this house. I mean why would anyone live in a house where knifes are thrown at you? This has got to be the most scariest thing I have ever gotten into..."

*Rainbow Dash's Video Diary*

"I have to admit Celestia was right about the activity grows with each day... This is just way too creepy."

*Applejack's Video Diary*

"You know after that incident last night. I don't think I will live before I get out of here in 2 more days... I just want to go home... *Applejack is attacked* Agh! Help!"

*30 minutes later*

"Rainbow. Rainbow! Wake up!" Twilight was shaking Rainbow frantically back and forth

"STOP SHAKING ME." Rainbow pulled Twilight's hoofs off her and asked her what happened.

"Applejack is missing..." Rainbow immediately woke up and went outside the room no sign of Applejack

"When did this happen?" Twilight then gave Rainbow the Video Diary that was Applejack's

"Son of a *bleep*. Something's got Applejack!." Rainbow bolted out of the bedroom and went looking for Applejack.

"APPLEJACK! WHERE ARE YOU?!" No matter how hard Rainbow searched Applejack was nowhere to be found.

AFTER APPLEJACK'S DISAPPEARANCE RAINBOW DASH AND TWILIGHT DECIDE TO LOOK FOR HER IN THE BASEMENT.

5:00 AM

"Okay we are in the basement...looking for the creature that took Applejack." Rainbow swung the camera all over basement but saw nothing.

"Wow. Even the Basement is big and complicated. It looks like extra rooms for people to sleep in." Twilight looked around. Applejack could be in any one of these rooms.

As Rainbow Dash opened the first door she screamed in horror. Twilight went over to Rainbow Dash to see what she saw. A body was on the floor. Knife in the eye, Blood everywhere, but it wasn't Applejack. It was another pony that had gone missing 3 years ago.

"Twilight! Applejack might end up like this if we don't hurry!" So both ponies went door to door and checked each one. Every single room had a dead pony that went missing years ago. Each dying different ways. From being hanged to being burnt to a crisp. To being brutally beaten or to having the head cut off. But one room caught Twilight's eye.

The room looked like a little filly's room.

"Oh no." Rainbow turned around and saw Twilight with an emotional face. Rainbow looked inside the room and was shocked.

"Twilight. Was this the little filly you saw in the room on Monday?" Twilight nodded. Both ponies just stared at the dead filly. It looked like who ever did this was a cold serial killing pony.

"We need to find Applejack NOW!" Rainbow took Twilight by the hoof and they went to the final room in the basement.

"Applejack has to be in here. If she isn't. Then looks like we're going to be telling Celestia some bad news." Rainbow then kicked down the door. Twilight looked inside. All she saw was black. Rainbow then turned on the lights and right there in the middle was Applejack. She was tied up and she had bruises all over. Rainbow went over to Applejack and untied her.

"Thank goodness! If you didn't get here on time I would've died!" Applejack was starting to get a little too overjoyed with her rescue.

"Come on let's get out of here!" and so Rainbow, Twilight, and Applejack ran out of the mansion. And who else but Celestia was waiting for them out in front.

"What the? You've been out here the whole entire time?!" Twilight was starting to get furious that Applejack was attacked and Celestia didn't notice while she was out here the whole entire time.

"Yes. Now you want to quit the challenge and go home?" The three ponies said yes and so Celestia took off with them towards Ponyville.

As the ponies left the mansion Rainbow turned around. To think she would've been the bravest pony ever in all of Equestria. The first one to survive 5 days in a mansion. Those dreams are gone now. But it was better to leave the mansion then to stay. Then the carriage stopped.

"Huh? Why did we stop? We aren't at Ponyville yet!" Rainbow looked at her friends. They were sitting their in the seats. Dead.

"C-c-celestia! What's going on here?!" Rainbow stared at Celestia who was looking down. Blood was in her mane. She had a knife in her hoof.

"No. NO. NO!" Rainbow ran out of the carriage and started to fly towards Ponyville but Celestia caught her.

"Time for your demise!" Celestia then raised the knife and aimed it at Rainbow's throat

"NOOO!" All Rainbow remembered after that was blackness. Then she woke up.

7:00 AM

Rainbow woke up screaming which pretty much scared the buck out of Twilight.

"Geez Rainbow! What's wrong with you?!" Rainbow was panting from the nightmare. She looked all around the room.

"Ugh." Rainbow then just fell back onto her bed. It was just a nightmare. Then she remembered.

"WHERE'S APPLEJACK?!" Twilight then told Rainbow she was in the kitchen so Rainbow bolted down the stairs.

"Phew..." Applejack looked up at Rainbow who was out of breath

"Is something wrong? I heard you screaming from here." Applejack then stopped what she was doing and went over to Rainbow who was now putting her hooves to her head.

"Uh... Rainbow?" As Applejack started to move closer Rainbow started to scream again

"AGH! THE PAIN! WHAT'S GOING ON?! MY HEAD.... IT HURTS!!!" Rainbow then started to bang her head on the wall. Hard.

"Twilight! I need your help!" Twilight then rushed down to see what was going on.

"What's happ- RAINBOW STOP THAT!" Twilight then grabbed Rainbow before she could bang her head against the wall again.

"Don't you know you can kill yourself by doing that?!" Rainbow then started to talk about the nightmare she had. This helped the headache to stop.

"Okay so let me get this straight. You had a nightmare that Applejack was abducted, then downstairs in the basement there are dead bodies of the missing ponies, then we left the mansion, then Celestia killed us, and finally she killed you. Correct?" Rainbow gave a nod.

"Sounds like the house is getting to us." Applejack then motioned for Twilight and Rainbow to do the Video Diaries

*Twilight's Video Diary*

"So first I see a little filly in my room on Monday, then we all got threatened on Tuesday, and now Rainbow got a nightmare AND a huge headache today! What's going on?"

*Rainbow Dash's Video Diary*

*curls up into a ball* "Please don't let me die. Please don't let me die. Please don't let me die." *starts to cry*

*Applejack's Video Diary*

"To think a dream like that would cause someone like Rainbow to be scared. I can understand that. But to be caused by a house? Now that's confusing."

"Come on Rainbow eat up." Applejack pushed the plate of pancakes towards Rainbow

"Not hungry anymore." Rainbow then got up and went upstairs

"You know I'm really worried about her..." Twilight then finished her pancakes and went to the sink

"Yeah well you know sometimes you can't be brave all the time." Then they heard Rainbow from upstairs

"WHAT THE *bleep*! WHO MESSED UP THE ROOM?!" Twilight and Applejack then rushed up the stairs to the room

"Whoa." The three looked at the room. It was tangled up everywhere. Their belongings were in corners. Furniture were overturned. Worst of all a message was on the wall.

"I WARNED YOU. NOW BE READY FOR YOUR DEMISE TONIGHT." Applejack and Twilight then looked at Rainbow who was shocked.

"Please don't tell me your dream was real." Rainbow just stared at the floor ignoring Twilight's question

"Twilight. We need to investigate this now! Let's go to the basement!" This just made Rainbow perk up

"Don't! You'll be captured if you do!" But Twilight and Applejack ignored her plea and went to the basement

"...Wait! Don't leave me here!" Rainbow then caught up with Twilight and Applejack. When they reached the bottom of the stairs there were no rooms. It was just an normal basement.

"See Rainbow? Nothing to be afraid of. There isn't anything here." So all 3 ponies went upstairs. As Twilight went to open the door, the door would not open.

"Seriously?! Now?!" Twilight then continued to try to open the door. It still wouldn't budge. Rainbow turned around and at the bottom of the stairs was a stallion. The same one she described on Tuesday. Except it was furious and it looked like it was about to attack. Rainbow then screamed at the top of her lungs -

"OPEN THE DOOR!!!!" But way too late. The stallion charged up the stairs. But he passed the trio and hit the door. The door went flying and the stallion disappeared.

"What. The. *bleep*." All three ponies looked out the door but nothing was seen. So they went back to the room. Which was now cleaned up for some strange reason. Then they found a note on Applejack's bed

"Sorry for the mess. I'm just really depressed right now..." To Applejack that was really awkward for a ghost to say that. To Rainbow Dash she was glad the owner wasn't mad. Applejack then continued reading.

"...But right now an evil spirit lies here and is controlling my house. I can't seem to control it anymore. You must get out of here while you still can!" Applejack then looked at Rainbow who was laying in bed without a care.

"Rainbow! How can you be resting at this time?! First you were scared out of your mind! Now you act like you don't care if you die!" Rainbow just gave a faint smile

"Now that I know this stallion is gentle I don't think there should be a reason for me to get scared." Rainbow then stopped Applejack from smacking her again.

"Not today." Rainbow then laughed and went outside

"Sometimes that I don't get that pony at all!" Applejack then fell backwards on her bed and stared at the ceiling. Rainbow then came in soon after.

"Um... What time is it right now?" Rainbow had a scared look on her face

"8:00 AM. Why?" Rainbow then motioned Twilight and Applejack to look outside

"I don't believe it..." Twilight stared outside. IT WAS NIGHT AGAIN.

"Maybe Luna forgot to bring the moon down?" But when they looked again there was no moon in the sky. (no sun either) It was all pitch black.

"This is not good at all... Huh? Hey the cameras are acting funny! Oh no! They're turning to static!" Twilight tried to get the cameras to start working again.

"DON'T LET THE CAM-"

*All the cameras turn to static*

NOTHING WAS RECORDED FROM 8:00 AM TO 8:00 PM

8:01 PM

"Hey the cameras are back on!" Rainbow then grabbed her camera and swung it around the master bedroom to capture as much as she could.

"Okay... Twilight and Applejack are in the Kitchen right now investigating some weird noise in there. You have no idea what you missed... There were crashes, windows opening by themselves, even I saw the stallion again -" But Rainbow was cut short before she could finish telling what happened.

"Whoa look out! SHOOT GET OUT NOW!" You could hear the sound of plates smashing onto the floor from the kitchen. Soon after Applejack and Twilight came into the room, locked the door, and covered the windows.

"What happened down there?" Rainbow then put the camera down on the bed

"We are so dead if we don't stay awake for the night." Rainbow then gave a confused face at Applejack

"What do you mean?" Then Applejack told Rainbow about last night and how the thing got inside the room.

"Wow. How did I not notice that..." Then the camera ran out of batteries.

THURSDAY

3:00 AM

"Okay the camera is back on." Rainbow then flashed the camera towards Twilight.

"Now isn't the time to record Rainbow." Twilight then took the camera and placed down on the master bed.

"Is the thing gone?" Applejack then took a peek outside. She saw nothing but the empty hallways.

"Looks like it..." Applejack then motioned for the trio to go back to the room.

"I hope the room isn't trashed again..." As the trio went into the room nothing was out of place. Everything was exactly as it should be.

"I think everything will be okay if we just sleep for the rest of the 4 hours..." Applejack and Twilight agreed and all 3 went to bed to face the paranormal in the morning.

7:00 AM

"Ah! That was a good nap." Applejack looked at Twilight and Rainbow. They were still asleep so Applejack let them sleep in while she went downstairs to make breakfast. She went in and checked the refrigerator but it was empty.

"Strange... I could've sworn the refrigerator still had more food in here..." Applejack checked the cabinets but there was nothing.

"Looks like we're going to go a day without food." Applejack went upstairs to check on Rainbow and Twilight. Both ponies were up.

"Hey Applejack is breakfast ready?" Rainbow was starving from that action last night

"Ran out of food." Rainbow just frowned at this.

"Come on Rainbow it's not like your going to die from 1 day without food. Tomorrow is the last day. We can all go to Sugarcube Corner after we get back!" Twilight laughed and went downstairs. Rainbow was annoyed that she had to wait a day to eat but Twilight was right. So Rainbow went downstairs to meet up with her.

"Where are you going?" Twilight pointed outside so Applejack decided to join them as well.

"Looks like the sun is back..." All three then decided to do the video diaries outside.

*Twilight's Video Diary*

"You know I kinda wondered what this evil spirit looked like... And since Rainbow is the only one who can see that gentle stallion of her's I want her to ask the gentle one to describe the evil spirit. It's not like it would be that scary... right?"

*Rainbow Dash's Video Diary*

"You know... Yesterday was just too surprising to even describe. I mean the sky doesn't just lose the moon or sun for a day! *Stomach growls* Also I think I won't be able to focus for tonight's final investigation..."

*Applejack's Video Diary*

"Okay looking back at what happened in the past 3 days. Twilight is met by a little filly, We get terrorized by the evil spirit, Rainbow gets a horrible nightmare... Oh no I'm next..."

"Okay I have a plan on what we should do for tonight. How about we split up this time. I will go outside in the back while you 2 stay in the house. Applejack you will investigate downstairs while Rainbow will investigate upstairs." All 3 agreed with the plan and did some activities as they waited for nightfall to come.

9:00 PM

*Twilight*

"Okay... nothing to worry about now..." Twilight said as she walked through the backyard. There was so many fields of grass in front of her. She even noticed that there was a forest in the distance but it was fenced off.

"I don't see any activity out here... And to think that I would've gotten like some stuff move around of something..." Twilight then started to move back into the house but a noise caught her off guard.

UWAAHHH

"The heck?" Then Twilight started to move towards to where she heard the sound... and got the surprise of her life.

*Rainbow Dash*

"It's quiet. Too quiet." As Rainbow wandered around in the dark hallways she noticed that there was an entrance to the attic.

"How did we not notice this?" Rainbow wondered as she opened the door

"Holy mother of Celestia..." Rainbow stared at what she saw was a ghostly figure standing inside the attic. It did nothing at all.

"Who are you?" Rainbow started to move closer to the figure but then it turned around and went right through her and disappeared through the other side of the attic.

"Well isn't that just *bleep* glorious?" Then Rainbow fell backwards and passed out.

*Applejack*

"Oh geez... I hope I don't get a heart attack." As Applejack searched everywhere downstairs for any signs of activity she had a feeling something was was watching her. She turned around to look. Nothing.

"Phew! Heh heh my imagination sure is wild!" Applejack then turned around and ended up being face to face with the evil spirit that was controlling the house. She screamed and ran as fast as she could out the front door. When Applejack made it out she was out of breath.

"Whoa now... That was... Close..." Applejack then remembered that Rainbow Dash was still in the house so she went back inside. The evil spirit however was gone.

"I got to find Rainbow!" So Applejack went upstairs to look for her.

*Twilight*

"I don't believe it!" Standing right there in front of Twilight was the little filly she had seen before. But the filly did nothing except stare back at Twilight.

'This can't get any weirder...' But just as Twilight thought it couldn't get weirder. The little filly started to speak through her head.

'What are you talking about? Aren't we just doing a staring contest?' Twilight was shocked that the filly just spoke to her through her head. Twilight blinked in the process.

'Yay! I win!' Twilight then watched as the filly jumped for joy. Slowly, Twilight backed away. Then she ran full speed towards the house.

"I AM NOT GOING TO LOSE IT TONIGHT!" Twilight looked behind her and saw that the little filly was gone. But Twilight kept running until she reached the house. She decided to find Applejack and Rainbow Dash.

*Applejack*

"Rainbow?" Applejack needed to find Rainbow fast before the evil spirit finds her. While looking for Rainbow though Applejack ran into Twilight.

"Applejack! Oh thank goodness I found you!" Twilight gave Applejack a hug and explained what just happened to her just moments ago.

"That's scary but we need to find Rainbow now! I searched everywhere but I can't find her!" Applejack started to get really worried.

"Then let's check one more time." Twilight and Applejack then went through the hallways once more. This time Twilight found an entrance to the attic.

"How in the world did we not see this." Twilight wondered out loud. Applejack just shrugged and went up the stairs. Then they found Rainbow Dash on the floor passed out.

"RAINBOW!" Applejack then rushed over to Rainbow. She wasn't waking up at all.

"We need to get Rainbow back to the room!" Twilight then helped Applejack pick up Rainbow to get her back to the bedroom.

"You know I think we should cancel tonight's inves- WHOA!" Applejack then stopped immediately. The door to the right of them had opened by itself. If Applejack hadn't stopped she wouldn't be awake right now.

"Close one... Come on Twilight! We need to get to the room!" Applejack and Twilight then started to move faster. As they reached the room Rainbow started to wake up.

"Huh... What? What happened?" Rainbow then looked at Applejack and Twilight who were carrying her to the room. They both didn't say anything at all to Rainbow.

"Is the investigation over?" Rainbow was really confused as to what in the world just happened but she brushed the thought aside as Applejack and Twilight laid her in the bed. Then Twilight locked the door, covered the windows, and went over to her bed.

"We'll tell you when Celestia comes to take us home tomorrow." Applejack then turned off the lights and got into bed. All 3 ponies then fell asleep as they waited for Friday to come.

*Twilight's Video Diary*

"You know from what I have seen in the past days... I would say I am glad we survived! We can FINALLY get out of here! Wow... And to think we would've been killed back there!"

*Rainbow Dash's Video Diary*

"YES! We can go home now! Alright! I'm so going to have a feast when we get back! WOO HOO!"

*Applejack's Video Diary*

"I can't believe it! It's already Friday! This is the best day of my life! Celestia will pick us up any minute now!"

"Alright! Who wants to go home?" Celestia said as she came out of the carriage to meet up with Rainbow Dash, Twilight, and Applejack.

"DON'T LEAVE US HERE!" Rainbow then bolted out the front door with her belongings and sat in the one of the seats.

"Hey! Wait up!" Applejack and Twilight were then seen running down the stairs.

"Hurry up if you want to get to Ponyville before dark!" Twilight and Applejack then jumped into the carriage and Celestia sat down next to Rainbow Dash. Then the carriage started to move and then they were off.

"So you want to go back next week?" Celestia then made a face as she said the words

"NO!" All 3 ponies replied. Celestia laughs and then asks them what has happened during their stay.

"You know... It's been such a long time since I've been in that house. I'm not saying that I miss it or anything it's just that after what happened to me, Applejack and Rainbow Dash. We've actually gotten more respect from other ponies. In fact we've been getting loads of requests for autographs from every pony in town." Twilight sighed and looked off camera.

"We're so famous that I don't even get a chance to read a decent book! Or even see my friends! Trust me ask Rainbow Dash next." Twilight then puts her hoof over the lens to not let anypony see anything else.


"Well of course! Being this famous and all is great! No let me rephrase that... IT'S AWESOME! But I do miss Twilight and the others. But that didn't really matter because after that one of the Wonderbolts asked for my autograph!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! After that day my life was complete. But I could still see my friends again one last time before I get overwhelmed by the ponies." Rainbow then started to leave when the camera pony stopped her.

"You can see them again. We already got Twilight to sign it." Rainbow then stares at the camera in shock.

"You can't be serious." But the camera pony was telling the truth and Rainbow knew it. That signature was Twilight's. Or Spike since he writes literally everything for Twilight...

"So you wanna see them again?" The camera pony asked.

"COUNT ME IN!" The camera pony then gave Rainbow the paper and she signed it.


"So tell me. Why did you come all the way to Sweet Apple Acres? You want to send me back there to that house?" Applejack's tone showed that she was not amused in the slightest bit of why these ponies came back.

"No, no, no, no, no we just want you to sign this sheet of paper." You could then hear the sound of paper behind the camera.

"What is that for?" Applejack pointed at the paper that was off-screen

"Well I've heard you, Twilight and Rainbow have been real famous around here and you've been having trouble seeing each other again... So we've arranged you 3 to meet at this address in Ponyville."

"The Everfree... Why here?" Applejack was now confused.

"No pony would expect to find you there!" The camera pony then watched as Applejack's expression changed.

"Alright I'll go." So Applejack signed the paper and was about to leave when the camera pony stopped her.

"Don't forget these." The camera pony then gave Applejack 3 cameras that were fully charged. Applejack frowned at this.


-Everfree Forest-

*Applejack turns on one of the cameras*

"So this is the spot I'm supposed to meet Rainbow and Twilight? Seems weird. I mean there's just a random house in the forest. Not like Zecora's shack but still..." Applejack stood there for a while when suddenly the door opened. It was Twilight!

"I thought you would never come Applejack!" Both laughed and gave each other hugs before Twilight let her in.

"So where's Rainbow?" Applejack looked around but didn't see her until she heard Rainbow's voice.

"Someone call me?" Applejack turned around to see Rainbow coming from the kitchen.

"RAINBOW!" Applejack ran straight up to Rainbow Dash and gave her the tightest of all hugs.

"Whoa! Is it me or is your strength the same as Pinkie?" Applejack ignored the question and let Twilight take over.

"So let's talk about what has happened to each other in these last 4 years." Twilight started with Rainbow since she was eager to go.

"Well I got a request from a Won-" Rainbow was then stopped mid-sentence when a shadow passed by at lightning quick speed.

"Uh... What was that?" Rainbow turned around. There was nothing.

"Here take these cameras." Applejack then gave both cameras to Twilight and Rainbow to use to record everything.

"We'll split up and find out who's in here." Twilight said. "Search every room until that shadow pony is found."

They all agreed and went to search for the mysterious shadow. Little did they know that it was something they did not expect.


-Twilight-

"Alright... 2nd floor... Inside one of the rooms..." Twilight looked around in the bedroom. It was like any ordinary bedroom... Only it was colored red and black.

"Geez! Is it me or did it just get cold in here all of a sudden?" Twilight looked around again. This time she looked at the window. There in the window was the figure of a white stallion. His eyes weren't normal, his skin was pale, he had a black mane and it looked like he was going to come inside.

"OH NO! LET ME OUT OF HERE!" Twilight rushed to the door but it had closed shut and it was locked. She turned around. The stallion was now only a few feet in front of her. Twilight knew she was a goner and closed her eyes. When she opened them the stallion was gone. The door had opened.

"Phew..." Twilight then walked outside and went over to the next room. She used her magic to open the door but just as she was going to do that she felt a hoof on her shoulder. She turned around to see the stallion in front of her.

"Say GOODNIGHT!" The stallion then swiped at her neck with a blade that was in his hoof. Blood was everywhere and Twilight collapsed to the floor.

*Static*

-Rainbow Dash-

"In the attic... Just me your fellow Rainbow Dash... Setting out to find that creepy shadow." Rainbow then looked around the attic. There was barely any light and the camera was already about to run out of batteries.

"Applejack lied to me. She said these cameras had been fully recharged." Rainbow sighed and continued to search. She found absolutely nothing in the attic. Just junk. Then the attic light went out.

"Ahh! I can't see! Come on!" Rainbow looked around frantically but she couldn't see anything. It was pitch black.

"Wait! I still got that flashlight from 4 years ago! Maybe it still has some energy left!" Rainbow then reached for the flashlight. Then she remembered. It wasn't with her.

"Shoot. Now I can't see and the camera is just recording nothing." Rainbow was about to just sit there and wait for Twilight or Applejack to come up when she felt somepony put a flashlight in her hooves.

"Yes! Alright where are you shadow?!" Rainbow then turned on the flashlight. Right in front of her was a stallion. It wasn't the good stallion she saw from the mansion. It was a rather pale looking one. But that was still no reason to not run away.

"*BLEEP* ME! I'M OUTTA HERE!" Rainbow then started to run towards the exit but the pale stallion caught her and slammed her against the wall.

"No, no, no, no, NO! This can't be real! This has got to be a dream!" Rainbow was going to run but the pale stallion grabbed her by the neck.

"It's not a dream. IT'S REAL!" The stallion then took out a blade and slashed it at Rainbow's neck. The stallion watched as the blood poured down her neck. Rainbow then collapsed to the floor. Dead.

*Static*

-Applejack-

"This house gives me the creeps... Why would anyone build a house in the middle of the Everfree Forest?" Applejack wondered for a while before going back to searching for that shadow.

"Maybe it's in this room over here?" Applejack then opened the room. Nothing except house cleaning tools.

"Well this is meaningless! Why look for some stupid shadow?! I could be hearing stories from Twilight and Rainbow right now!" Applejack then slammed the door and went to go outside the house. But it turns out to be locked.

"What the? Who locked us in?! ...Maybe I should tell the others about this." Applejack then went upstairs to the room where Twilight was.

"Hey Twilight the doors are locked and I was wondering if you could- HOLY MOTHER OF CELESTIA!" Applejack stared in horror as Twilight was laying on the floor dead. Blood was everywhere and it looked like she had just been killed right now.

"Oh No! Gotta warn Rainbow Dash!" Applejack then rushed upstairs to the attic but when she got there Rainbow was already dead.

"No..... NO!! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!" Applejack held the sides of her head and yelled in pain. She then looked up to see the stallion she saw 4 years ago.

"You!? It can't be! You died in that house fire!" The stallion didn't say anything at all. He walked up to Applejack and gave a devious smile at her. Applejack tried to run but she was frozen in her place.

"Don't believe everything you hear darling." The stallion then raised his hoof and slashed at Applejack.

"NOOOO!!!!"

*Static*

AFTER THAT DAY TWILIGHT, RAINBOW DASH OR APPLEJACK WAS NOT FOUND ANYWHERE. ALTHOUGH THE ROYAL GUARDS DID SEARCH FOR THEM THE ONLY THING THEY FOUND WAS 3 CAMERAS. TO THIS DAY NO ONE HAS EVER PLAYED THOSE VIDEOS. FOR IF YOU DO AND YOU WATCH THEM. YOU. WILL. DIE.
