"Oh, hey, Pinkie. Nice to see you... Why is your hair straight ?" Twilight asked.

"I straightened it. Since straight hair is easier to style." Pinkamena replied.

"And... why are your eyes red ?"

"Oh, Twilight... I've been staying up all night to plan your event. That's the reason why my eyes are red."

"Pinkie.. that's.. That's really nice of you ! But, it's not necessary. You need your sleep." 

"Well, if you say so.." 

The whole time they were speaking, Pinkie trailed off into a part of the castle, Twilight tagging behind her. Finally, the two reached an empty room. 

"Why are we here ?" Twilight asked Pinkie, who's back was faced to Twilight.

"Oh, Twilight...." Pinkie started. She turned around, a knife in her mouth.

"You never really liked being a princess, did you ?" She asked.

"Pinkie, what are you-" Twilight started, but was interrupted by Pinkamena.

"It's Pinkamena Diane Pie !!" She corrected, and used the knife to cut off one of Twilight's wings. Twilight screamed. She tried to run out of the door, but Pinkamena stepped in her way.

"Where are you running off to, Princess ?" She asked, and stabbed Twilight's hoof. 

"HELP !!" Twilight screamed, resulting in her tongue getting cut off.

"R.I.P, Twilight." Pinkie said, stepping towards Twilight. She tried to back away, but the pain in her hoof was too much. 

>>><<<

"HELP !!"  The scream echoed throughout the castle. Rarity stopped short. "That sounds like Twilight." She muttered and ran in the direction of the noise.

"Hey, wait up !" Applejack called out, but Rarity din't hear. She had already turned a corner. Applejack decided to follow her, but after the turning, there were two more at the end. 'Which way did she go ?' Applejack thought and went right.

Rarity, who had taken the left turning, ran around trying to find her Princess friend...

>>><<<

"HELP !!" 

Rainbow stopped and looked around. "Did you hear that ?" she asked. 

"I did... It sounded like Twilight." Fluttershy replied.

The two looked at each other before running in the direction of the noise and stopping short before two turnings.

"Go left. I'll take the right." Rainbow said. Fluttershy nodded and went left. Deep inside, she was slightly afraid.

'It's just Twilight's castle.. what could possibly go wrong ?' She assured herself. But what Fluttershy didn't know was that things were very, very, wrong.

>>><<<

"HELP !!" 

Starlight and Spike stared at each other. Both of them were in the library. They came there after hearing what sounded like a crash. 

"Stay here. I'll go and see what's happening." Spike said, and went in the direction of the noise. Starlight nodded grimly. She saw a shadow on the ground, in front of her. Curious, she turned around, only to see Pinkamena. Her once pink mane was now full of red patches. Blood.

Pinkamena raised her knife.

>>><<<

Hey, Twilight !

I heard that your anniversary of being a princess is coming soon. Is it true ? If so, then.. Congratulations !

Would you mind coming over to our world after the anniversary ? I'd really like to spend some time with you when our world's safety isn't hanging in the balance.

Your best friend.

Sunset Shimmer.  

Sunset closed the book and looked at her friends. 

"Do you think she'll come ? I'd really love to know more about magic." Twi asked.

"Hopefully, she will." Sunset replied, fascinated by Twilight's curiosity. A few minutes later, the book started vibrating.

>>><<<

Pinkie stared at the vibrating book before opening it and reading the letter. She glanced at Starlight's body. Her beautiful purple and green mane was now full of red. Her eyes were wide open, and her horn was separated from her body. A pool of dark-red blood surrounded her. 

Pinkamena put down the book and went to fetch a quill. She opened a book, and wrote a reply. One that would give her another victim. And she wasn't wrong, after all. She laughed all evil-like, before the door opened.

"Starlight ! Are you okay ? I found Twilight and she-" Spike paused when he looked at Starlight's remains, and then at Pinkie.

"You're next, Spike." Pinkie said, walking towards the frightened green and purple dragon.

>>><<<

Sunset stared at the reply, and read it again for the umpteenth time.

'No, this can't be happening.' She thought, reading it again.

Oh, silly... Twilight won't be writing from the grave.
