> The Sound of Angels > by Shining Eyes > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Dead One > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Sound of Angels By: Shining Eyes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One day, Shining Eyes was walking a hiking trail when suddenly, a glimpse of a sillouhette caught his eye. He turned around and found nothing. He kept walking. A few minutes later, he felt a cool breeze through his mane. He turned around again and again, nothing. "...What the hell is going on here?" he asked, curious and somewhat afraid. He kept on walking, considering to just go home and take a nap. It was getting dark, anyways. So, he turned around and was met with a pony around his size, with no mane or tail, a coat which was colored to look like he was wearing a suit, and no face. "Hello." The corporeal figure said in a ghostly tone. Shining Eyes was frozen in place, filled with fear. "...Wh- Who are you...?" The moment he said that, he felt a sharp object go through his abdomen and he collapsed to the ground. When he woke up, he was laying in a hospital bed, where a doctor and 3 nurses were huddled around the doorway. "..What happend to me...?" he called out, but nopony seemed to hear him. "I asked what happened to me!" he called out in a louder voice. Still, nopony heard him. He then looked to his right, to his horror, to see the life support system turned off. He suddenly felt lighter and lifted off the ground slightly. He had realized what happened. He didn't understand it, but he rised slightly more off the ground. He heard angels singing, welcoming him into the heavens, and he rose and rose until he though he could rise no higher, and touched down on a cloud, right infront of the gates of heaven. [POLICE REPORT. 12/22/2298] [Victim's name: Shining 'Escongea' Eyes][Cause of death: Stabbed to death. Victim was last seen venturing into the Whitetail Wood at 2:45 P.M.] [Estimated Time of Death: 5:43 P.M.] [POLICE REPORT END] > Another One Gone > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "After the recent reports of numerous deaths in the nearby Whitetail Woods, another pony has been found dead, this time more gruesome than the last. We've been seeing a pattern with these deaths lately. As of-" The television shut off abruptly. "That's it...I can't take any more of this." Said Fireshine as he got up to walk outside. "I'm taking this into my own hooves. Even if it means I'll be the next death." He ran to the Whitetail Wood as fast as his hooves could take him. As he entered the woods some time later, he began to feel a strange presence. Something he could not deny wasn't there. Something that was watching his every move. He took a few more steps and proceeded to turn on hus flashlight, but failed to do so. "Ugh, the batteries are dead." He a few more steps before he began to feel sick. This was not the kind of sick that you would feel when you were about to puke. No, this was very, very different. This sick was when you felt a dark presence, or a 'demon' near you. He began to walk faster and faster, before he broke out into a full out run. He could feel it behind him. Something otherworldly. Something dark and corrupted. He quickly turned around to get a look of the creature. He stopped dead. He died the same way all those other ponies did. That was it. Nopony ever looked into the deaths ever again. The Whitetail Woods were closed to the public, and life went on for the citizens of Equestria. They lived their lives like nothing ever happened. And that was that. Now, when I say that, I mean something very different.... ~The End~ (?) > The Last Death(s) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Extrame and her little sister, Electra Buzz, were still up at this late hour. "H-hey big sister...?" Electra managed to stutter out. "Yeah?" "Do you think the Slendermane will g-get us?" Extrame sighed. "Look, Electra, the Slendermane isn't real. You have no reason to be scared. Now go to bed." "Okay...." They both fell asleep, but when they woke up the next morning, they were lying in dew, in what looked to be like the Everfree Forest. "....Huh?" Extrame said quietly, trying not to be too loud to wake her sister up, but when she looked to her side, she saw that her sister was already pale as a ghost, staring up at the sky with a terrified expression. She looked a little lower to her abdomen and saw 4 holes, still bleeding. What she didn't know is how she died. That happened a few hours ago, when she snuck out of the house to find out how and why all of these ponies were dying. It was convenient that her family lived right next to the Woods. So, at around 2 A.M., she left the house in search of the reason of the deaths. When she walked in, she felt the same sickness as Fireshine had felt. Now, all 3 of these ponies knew eachother, which was ironic, because they said they'd be friends 'till the end. They didn't know that the end would approach them so quickly. Electra Buzz kept on walking, now visibly scared. After she walked for about 2 hours, she thought that the other ponies died of natural causes. So, she turned around and started walking away. She blinked once, and then there he was. The Slendermane. She froze in shock, as many other ponies who had died from this horrific demon. As she stood there, her vision got very fuzzy, then it all went black. "Oh no....Oh Celestia no....ELECTRA NO!" Extrame screamed into the morning sky. "No....Please...No..." She laid down on top of her sister and cried herself into a nap. A few hours later she woke up and decided to take a walk, still mourning over her dead sister. A few minutes after she started her walk, her vision began to get fuzzy. "No...." The second she turned around, there it was. This time, though, he didn't kill her right away, but it did hypnotize her and led her away into his own dimension, where he then murdered her viciously. That was it. Nothing else was allowed to even be 60 feet from the Wood, and no one ever remembered those ponies who had died, nor did they ever find the bodies. ~The End~
