Chapter 1: Canterlot Spooky Mall
It's been a few days since Sun's birthday party, the girls and Wire Wolf are at the mall. Pinkie is being helped by the employees and her friends to put the finishing touches on the mall for… In Pinkie's case, "The Best Spooktacular Halloween Party Ever."
"This is going to be The Best Spooktacular Halloween Party Ever!" Pinkie cheers.
The mall is decorated with black and orange streamers and balloons. Spooky fake skeletons, bats, spiders, and witches flying on broom sticks hanging. There are also many different scary, funny, and happy pumpkins. The mall is fully decorated for Halloween. Even some of the stores, the food court, and the movie theater.
Pinkie and the gang are at the food court after putting many of the decorations around the mall. Now they are having some lunch and a good chat about the Halloween Party tomorrow.
"That looks awesome Pinkie. You outdid yourself again," Rainbow complements.
"Don't I always. I just love Halloween. It's my favorite holiday," Pinkie cheers.
"As well as Christmas, Thanksgiving, Labor day, Groundhog day, and practically every holiday ever known," Sun says with a calm smile.
"Too true," Pinkie happily replies.
"I love Halloween too," Sonata replies.
Aria chuckles with a smirk, "Especially the candy and food they have at parties."
"Hey," Sonata sternly glares at Aria.
"Well, I love to dress great and look presentable," Adagio says.
Rarity smiles, and says, "Ooh, me too. I have an amazing costume to try on."
"I'm not too thrilled about Halloween," Fluttershy worriedly says.
"Why not?" Twilight asks.
"Because every year, she hides in your room with your stuffed animals Until we manage to get her out eighth grade," Applejack answers.
Pinkie giggles, and says, "Yeah. That's the year that Rainbow Dash beat the pants off of the Diamond boys."
"And proud of it. No one messes with my friends," Rainbow says with pride.
Wire Wolf rolls his eyes, and says, "Let me guess, you fought at school and you and the boys got detention for it."
"Way to give me the low blow, Wolf," Rainbow slouches with a sulking look.
Sun smiles, and says, "Alright guys, let's not worry about what happened in the past halloween, and lets focus on this one."
"Says the one who decided to go inside the old manor on halloween night," Rarity grins.
Sun sighs, "Why do you gotta bring up old stuff?"
"Because we learn from our mistakes," Rarity answers.
"Touche," Rainbow replies.
"Well, I think we should have some fun decorating the rest of the mall before the day is done. Halloween is tomorrow, and I can't wait to have some fun!" Pinkie shouts with a smile.
Sonata cheers, "Then let's get to it."
"And I just know the perfect song for the occasion," Pinkie says.
Pinkie brings out the radio and turns on the music. They hear music coming out of the radio
Applejack rolls her eyes, and says, "That song again. Well, I guess it's appropriate to the theme."
"Let's get going," Aria says.
Song:
It's close to midnight
Something evil's lurking from the dark
Aria and Sonata are decorating the stage for the band and d.j. Vinyl plugs in to the speakers so the song can be played all over the mall
Song:
Under the moonlight
You see a sight that almost stops your heart
Rarity, Twilight, and Adagio are putting some of the streamers and decorations on the ceiling.
Song:
You try to scream
But terror takes the sound before you make it
Applejack, Pinkie, Wire Wolf, and Sun are carving the pumpkins and making faces.
Song:
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between your eyes
You're paralyzed
Fluttershy, Falling Star, and Rainbow are
Song:
'Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
And no one's gonna save you
From the beast about to strike
You know it's thriller
Thriller night
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer
Thriller tonight, yeah
The girls then bring their instruments and the microphones on stage, and play to the music for practice.
Song:
You hear the door slam
And realize there's nowhere left to run
Pinkie, Twilight, and Sun hang up the disco ball. Twilight uses her levitation ability to lift it up. Sun and Pinkie are able to attach it to the ceiling.
Song:
You feel the cold hand
And wonder if you'll ever see the sun
Adagio, Sonata, and Rarity set up the dance floor, and turn on the lights.
Song:
You close your eyes
And hope that this is just imagination
Applejack, Rainbow, and Sonata set up the table for the food, drinks, and candy to put on
Song:
Girl but all the while
You hear a creature creeping up behind
You're out of time
Wire Wolf, Aria, and sonata set up the games. Although, Pinkie ends up falling into a barrel full of apple for the apple boubin game.
Song:
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes, girl
Thriller, thriller night
You're fighting for your life inside of killer, thriller tonight
The friends help decorate the theater for the party. With Juniper's help, they are able to find scary and halloween themed movies for anyone arriving to the party.
Song:
Night creatures call
And the dead start to walk in their masquerade
There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time
They're open wide
This is the end of your life
Song:
They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side
They will possess you, unless you change that number on your dial
Now is the time for you and I to cuddle close together, yeah
All through the night
I'll save you from the terror on the screen, I'll make you see
They look at the mall to see that everything is all finish and well decorated for the party.
Song:
That this is thriller, thriller night
'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghoul would ever dare try
Thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight
And share a killer, thriller, chiller
Thriller here tonight
'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
The twelve friends begin to help finish decorating the mall for the Halloween party
After time of decorating and setting the accessories up, the mall is all decorated for halloween.
"Yay! We're all done decorating for the Halloween Party tomorrow!" Pinkie cheers.
"Yeah. the place looks marvelous spooky," Rarity with with a smile.
"Alright, I can't wait for the party. It's going to rock," Rainbow says.
Then Twilight says, "But before we do, we should check out the haunted house close by."
"Good idea," Sun says.
The girls and Wire Wolf arrive at the haunted house that is using a two floor store to do it.
Twilight looks at the map Pinkie has given her, "According to the map, the house is divided by two floors. We should split up so we can check them out faster."
Everyone nod their heads in reply.
Soon the group walkinside the haunted house together. Then they seperate to cover more ground.
Down stairs, Twilight, Adagio, Rarity, Rainbow, Applejack, and Pinkie look around downstairs.
The girls begin to look at the gadgets, lights, and other kinds of features to the haunted house. Pinkie ends up scaring them while dressing up like a mummy and popping out of the casket. Adagio responds to this little prank by smacking Pinkie on the head.
"Ow!" Pinkie reacts.
Applejack and Rainbow look around in one of the rooms. Applejack presses a button, and makes a orb admit electricity scaring the two.
Twilight and Rarity look around to check some of the rooms. Rarity is rather stunned to see some of the dummies and mannequins have in her case, horrible fashion. Twilight rolls her eyes in reply.
Upstairs, Sun, Wire Wolf, Aria, Sonata, Fluttershy, and Falling Star are checking around the rooms to see if they're in perfect condition.
Fluttershy is hudding Falling Star by the arm really tight. So tight that Fluttershy is actually hurting Falling Star's arm.
Feeling the pain, Falling Star says, "Uh Fluttershy, I think you're crushing my arm."
"Oh, I'm… I'm so sorry, Falling Star" Fluttershy quickly apologizes and lets go of Falling Star's arm.
"That's alright. But…. ow… I didn't realize you can squeeze that hard," Falling Star replies, rubbing her right arm.
Fluttershy blushes, and quietly says, "Sorry."
At a different part of the upper floor, Aria and Sonata are looking around a room that has spooky underwater decorations. The room looks almost like a sunken ship.
"This places looks a bit spooky," Sonata says.
"Yeah. It reminds me on the graveyard of ships back home," Aria says.
Sonata spin's shivers, "Don't remind me. That place is supposed to be haunted."
"Aw, don't tell me you're still scared of that place?" Aria asks.
"What do you think?!" Sonata screams in Aria's face.
Aria blinks a few times with a straight look.
Sun and Wire Wolf look around one of the room that looks like a mental asylum padded rooms. They both look around and at the dummy dressed like an insane person. They can see that the room is fine.
After that, Sun and Wire wolf leaves the room.
"Well, that rooms seems to be fine. I'm surprised they aren't on right now," sun says.
"They're probably waiting until tomorrow to have it on," Wire Wolf suspects.
"You're right. We should try to find the others," Sun says.
The two then begin to make their way downstairs to find the others.
Downstairs Pinkie search around the place to see if there's anything that needs spooking up. She keeps from popping one place to another. Just then, she trips on one of the cord that is on the ground. Pinkie ends up bumping her head into the button that is an on switch.
The girls quickly turn up to see the rooms to the haunted house are turning on. The scream when spooks and ghouls begin to pop out from all over the place.
Sun and Wire Wolf scream when a axe wielder with a hockey mask gets in front of them.
The scrambles their feet back, but Sun ends up falling to the wall, and the wall turns around causing her to scream.
Wire Wolf quickly turns around and yells, "Sun."
Wire Wolf quickly turns around to find Sun. Aria, Sonata, Falling Star, and Fluttershy run to find Wire Wolf after hearing the scream.
"What happen?" Fluttershy asks.
"I don't know, Sun disappeared somehow," Wire Wolf answers.
In the dark room, Sun is able to stand up after falling in. She looks around, and wonders why the room is do dark. Sun decides to see if she can find a way out. She walks along the walls to see if she can find a way out of the room.
As she is trying to look for a door or a light for that matter, she doesn't notice her foot stepping on a red button on the ground. Suddenly, the room begin to turn a creepy red and yellow color. And then spirits begin to fly around all over the place, but that's not the end of it. Holographic fire begin to appear, and then little pipes that unleashes small spouts of real fire.
Sun starts to feel her heart beating fast,and her eyes widen as she is starting to get a cold sweat. Being in this room full of fire causes Sun to recall a really bad memory.
Sun begins banging against the wall as she screams, "Help! Get me out of here!"
Outside of the room and hearing the screaming and banging, Wire Wolf and the others quickly turn hear where the noise is coming from. Wire Wolf comes to the wall and hears the screaming and banging sound coming from.
Twilight and the others run up to hear the scream.
"What in the world was that?" Twilight asks.
"I think Sun is in trouble," Wire Wolf says.
Wire Wolf calls out, "Sun, can you hear me?!"
But Wire Wolf can't hear Sun screaming, instead he can hear her crying. Suddenly, Wire Wolf then feels an opening on the wall, and knows that he needs to get Sun out.
"Girls. I think I found a way in. Help me get in this room," Wire Wolf says.
Applejack and Rainbow volunteer and help Wire Wolf bang on the wall until, they are able to turn the wall. Suddenly, Sun runs out and hugs Wire Wolf as they both fall on the ground.
Wire Wolf sits up to see Sun is shedding tears, taking deep breaths, and hugging Wire Wolf. Seeing how frighten Sun is, Wire Wolf gives Sun a hug to reassure her.
Falling Star turns to the others, and asks, "What's wrong with Sun? She looks like she has seen a ghost."
The others look to see the fiery inferno room. Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow, and Pinkie look worried, and understand why Sun is so frighten. Twilight, Falling Star, and the Dazzlings are looking at Sun with worried looks
Applejack leans to the five girls, and whispers, "Remember how Sun told you about losing her memories after gettin' hit by a car."
"Yes," Twilight says.
"That's was part of the story. When she first came into this world, Sun was trapped in the Princess Celestia throne room when it was on fire thank to Queen Chrysalis," Applejack explains.
The five girls look at Applejack with shocked look.
"What?" Twilight responds.
Then Rarity says, "And the worst part is that Queen Chrysalis set the room on fire to get rid of her."
The five gasp in shock. Even Wire Wolf, who are able to hear the conversation is shocked. He wonders, how could Sun go through something that horrible. Sun continues to weep as Wire Wolf tries to comfort her.
Later in the night, Sun is fast asleep in her bed. Of course, the others decide to stay with her until they gone home. They've been worried about her since earlier. They never seen Sun this scared before. Nina sleeps with Sun on the bed to keep her company.
Even though everyone have gone home, there is only one who is watching Sun outside her bedroom window, and that one is Wire Wolf.
He is still concern about Sun's well being and her sanity. Wire Wolf remembers asking Applejack and the others what happen, Twilight, Falling Star, and the Dazzlings ask the same thing. Applejack and the others explain what while she lived in Equestria and as Princess Celestia's student, she has wonder into the throne room to witness Queen Chrysalis. She set the throne room onfire to get rid of Sun and to escape. Sun is able to send a signal, but fallen through the portal. And Sun lost her memories when she saved Screwball from being hit by Rarity's family van.
Wire Wolf say in thought, "Sun, I had no idea what you had suffered from that experience, and your act of good deed cost you your memories. I don't know why but, everything the girls told me about you… reminds me of someone else. Someone who did the same for me."
Wire Wolf sighs, and jumps down of the roof, and head back home.
After getting back home, Wire Wolf calls it a night and is already fast asleep.
Just then, Wire Wolf starts have a dream and not a very good one. He toss over to both sides as he clutches his hand on the pillow and gritting his teeth.
Wire Wolf dreams to find himself in some kind of green capsule. He feels the strange green transparent capsule as he looks around. Suddenly he begins to hear voice.
"Ty?! What have you done to him?!"
"Allow me to demonstrate it on you!"
Suddenly, strange electricity travels into the capsule and causing Wire Wolf to scream in pain.
Wire Wolf continues to struggle as he is having a terrible dreams. What he doesn't know is that his terrible dream has caught the attention of someone or something.
Traveling into his bedroom is a strange dark purple smoke. It looks at Wire Wolf with curiosity, and the dream he is having makes it more interested. The purple smoke tries to travel into Wire Wolf's head, but something happen.
Wire Wolf begins to move and struggle as green electricity begin to be exposed from his body, and shocking the purple smoke. The purple smoke becomes stunned and flies out of the window, and fly in the sky.
The purple smoke travels into Canterlot Mall, and have go straight into a dark room. Suddenly, the purple smoke begins to admit green electricity and begin to change it shapes. Because the room is dark, the shape is almost impossible to make out. The smoke begin to become tall and begins to get eyes, and one of them has a red glowing monocle.
Suddenly an metalcity voice speaks, "Lovely."
