Principal Cinch entered her old art-class from when she was but a student at Crystal Prep Academy. She had been discovered and fired for blackmailing one of her students into winning the Friendship Games. Surely, someone would consider that either cheating or fraud.

Either way, she was sought out and was immediately fired on the spot. She was told to collect a few more of her things before leaving the school.

The last of her things were some her old art projects from her childhood. As soon as Cinch walked into the art studio, memories of her art life came flooding back to her.

In her younger years, Cinch was just a mere art student, one whose life WAS art! As she always used to say, "I live to paint and paint to live!" Of course, she was the star art student, as you could probably tell. But back then, her pride wasn't in her winning, it was in her art.

Believe it or not, Cinch used to not even care about being the star pupil in art or not. All that matter to her was creating wonderful art. She did it because she loved doing it.

That was, until one fateful day, another artist came along and stole Cinch's thunder. Before she knew it, Cinch's work was being ignored and rejected over the new girl's creations. As time passed, she simply lost her drive to create, making her hang up her art tools and throw away her drawings and paintings. She never picked up a pencil or paintbrush again after that.

Then, something caught her eye. Cinch's old art desk. Walking over to it, she spotted something that she hadn't seen in a long time. Drawings of her old original  cartoon characters that she created as an art project.

They were doodles and character sheets of cartoonish ponies, all female, had 'pie-cut eyes' and were black-and-white, like old retro-cartoons from the 1930s. There were seven of them.

The first pony was titled, 'Twilight Sparkle' who had a tattoo of a sparkling star on her behind. The second was named, 'Sunset Shimmer', who had black-and-white streaks in her mane and had a split sun on her behind. The third was named, 'Rarity', whose hair was curled like a fashionista and had three diamonds on her hip. The fourth pony was called, 'Applejack', who was wearing a cowboy hat and had a tattoo of three apples. The fifth was called, 'Rainbow Dash', whose behind was covered with the tattoo of a rainbow-colored bolt. The sixth was named, 'Fluttershy', whose hair was long and had three butterflies on her hip.

This seventh and final character was Cinch's favorite. In fact, she dubbed this pony 'the star of the gang', making her the main character. The pony was called, 'Pinkie Pie', whose mane-and-tail was poofy and had three balloons on her hip. She had a cartoonish smile on her face.

Cinch had dubbed these characters, 'The Mane 7.' She made when she was inspired by her favorite retro-cartoon character, Bendy the Dancing Demon. Ever since growing up, Cinch loved Bendy, as he was the world's most popular cartoon, along with Peacock the Gun-slinging Girl.

These days, Bendy had evolved so much over the years. Became modernized, gained a voice-actor and even had a video game after him. He even had a cartoon series named, Club of Clues!

Cinch put the pictures down and proceeded to continue with her getting her stuff back. Upon becoming principal of CPA, she decided to shut down the art studio, to save money so they can invest it for winning the Friendship Games.

Just then, as she had finished colleting her stuff, Cinch had noticed something off. She saw an odd doorway, half-open. She never remembered there being another room in this studio before.

Letting her curiosity get the better of her, Cinch walked through the door, entering a whole new room she had never been in before. It was like one of those old projection rooms from old animation studios, where they would show the cartoon to the staff before showing it to the world.

The room was filled with several rows of chairs, a projector behind them and a white sheet for the projector to face. Confused by all of this, Cinch had the urge to get out of this strange room. However, the door she came through was shut. And locked!

Realising she was locked in and trapped, Cinch looked around the room, trying to find another way out. She searched high and searched low. But nothing came up. She was, indeed, trapped inside.

Suddenly, the projector turned itself on and started playing an empty film. Cinch jumped in fright from this and wondered of there was someone in here with her. If this was some kind of prank, it wasn't funny.

Then, music stared playing from the audio players from the walls. She had never heard of this song before. It sounded like the music of an cartoon band, swinging from the recording room.

"Well, well, well! If it isn't Cinchy!" spoke out a cheery voice. Cinch turned around and her eyes widened in shock from what she saw. Pinkie Pie, her own character, on the screen. "Don't be such a stranger, old friend. It's been so loooooooong since you've come back home~!"

The pony laughed as she disappeared from the screen. Then, she appeared right outside of the screen, in 3d and standing behind Cinch, who went from in shock to fear!

Pinkie Pie started to sing as she moved. "I know you're seein', but not believein'. A picture's worth a thousand words and look who's holding the pen! You let me outta my cell and all the ink's run out of the well!" Pipes filled with ink began to burst, scaring Cinch as she ran away. Pinkie grinned.

"Ah know yer frightened, but hey, just lighten-up! How else you gonna see the shadows in the corner of yer eyes?" Cinch is then tripped by another of her characters, Applejack, who looked at her evilly. "We've got a killer surprise. It's our thanks fer all of yer lies!"

Then, Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer appeared and both sang in turns.

"Springing from the posters and the reel of the tape, a new dimension for us could be the seal of your fate!"

"And all the years you left us rotting here with nothing but rejection left us bitter and cold,"

"So give us what we're owed!"

Suddenly, out came Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. "I got a million things to say to someone like, now answer to all of your selfish deeds!" Cinch backed away a few steps. "We are the ones you left behind, you put out-of-mind, can't rewind, it's far too late for that now!"

The seven ponies ganged up on Cinch, who was backing into a giant hole in the ground. "Now, the ink is running faster, Say yer payers an hope you'll last, Cause it's a hell of a show, And you're in the front row,"

Just then, Pinkie Pie used her cane to push Cinch over the edge. "Oh mommy, welcome home, you've been away for far too long~!" Cinch fell down the hole, screaming for her life as she fell to darkness.

(BUMP!!!) She then landed on the floor, as if she never fell through the abyss to begin with. She turned and spotted Rarity, working on one of the old desks. The fashion pony was drawing her in a dress.

"No longer sketches, distorted wretches, how come so much have happened since you left so long ago?" Rarity jumped off of the chair and trotted towards her creator. "Well, buddy, don't you know? You're gonna reap what you have sown!"

Cinch quickly got up on her feet an noticed that Rarity was no longer there. "Maybe you'll blink, you'll see it's all in your head. But while your eyes are closed, you might just wind up dead!" Rainbow Dash popped up all inky in front of Cinch, who ran like hell.

"So make a choice and hope that I don't hear your voice, cause I'm a-coming, it's the end of the line." Sunset appeared in front of Cinch, along with AJ and Twilight. "Can't erase this time!"

Fluttershy sang from the silver screen, showing scenes of her and her friends in pain after being abandoned by their creator. "I've got a million memories of agony and pain, sent down the drain, like all the other drafts!"

AJ then tap-dances. "Ya'll thought ya really got away, but now it's time to pay, it's judgement day, Ah'll have the final laugh!"

"Now, the ink's running faster, Say your prayers and hope you'll last, Cause it's a hell of a show, And you're in the front row."

Pinkie grabs Cinch by the collar and stares into her eyes. "Oh mommy, welcome home, you've been away for far too long~!"

Cinch then finds herself back in the cinema room, watching a scene of Pinkie, AJ and Rarity doing a synchronized tap-dance.

She quickly ran away from the room and tried to find a way out of this horrifying place. Running as fast as she could, Cinch tried to escape from her own creations. Then, she stopped, shocked to see them in front of her again.

With three on one side and three on the other side, Fluttershy stood in the middle of her friends, looking sad as she sang. "And now, as the curtains finally close, you'll see the result of what you chose. Did it have to go this way, maybe if you only stayed, all this tragedy could've been prevented but..."

Suddenly, all of the ink pipes bust at once, causing ink to flood the place. Pinkie Pie marched towards Cinch. "Springing from the posters and the reel of the tape, a new dimension for us could be the seal of your fate. And all the years you left us rotting here with nothing but rejection left us bitter and cold,"

"SO GIVE US WHAT WE'RE OWED!!!!"

Cinch immediately sprinted to find an exit while the ponies continued to sing. Soon, she found herself surrounded by her characters. I got a million things to say to someone like, now answer to all of your selfish deeds! We are the ones you left behind, you put out-of-mind, can't rewind, it's far too late for that now! Now, the ink's running faster, say your prayers and hope you'll last, cause it's a hell of a show and you're in the front row,"

"Oh mommy, Welcome Home! You've been away for far too long!"

"Welcome Home! You've been away for far too long!"

"WELCOME HOME! You've been away for far too long!!!!"

Scared out her mind, Cinch just sat there in the corner of the room, trembling like a scared child who was surrounded by monsters. Suddenly, ink appeared underneath her and began to pull her in.

As it pulled her in, Pinkie Pie just laughed like a maniac. Soon, there was nothing left of the former CPA principal.

Back in the classroom, on Cinch's old desk, the appeared an eighth sheet. It was Abacus Cinch in toon pony form. She had a terrified expression on her face. As the lamp on the desk flickered, the picture changed.

The Mane 7 appeared next to her, smiling their trademark cartoon smiles. The lamp flicked again, making the seven ponies grin evilly as they glared at Cinch, who just whimpered at the audience....
