Chapter 1: What's This?

Author's Note: I don't know why. Just a random thought. First chapter will be shorter than the others. It will not follow in the same world as MLP: FiM. It will have new ponies, and will more or less follow the story of Death Note. There will be other ponies from the show to fill some roles, but not many.

Twilight Sparkle, often called Light, was a normal pony around Equestria. She had good grades, she was great at sports and she was quiet, so no one noticed anything. One cold day, as she was trotting home from school, she spied a notebook, lying on the ground in front of the gate.

'That's peculiar…' Light thought to herself, as she wandered over to it and picked it up. On the cover, the notebook read 'Death Note'.

'Like…notebook of death?' Light questioned to herself, before picking it up and skimming through it a bit.

"What?" Light exclaimed, a little too loud, as some ponies stared as they walked past. She stashed the notebook in her bag, and went on her way home. On her way, she felt a strange presence, but brushed it off as nothing.

"Ah! Shit!" exclaimed Spike, a Shinigami.

"What happened this time?" asked another Shinigami from across the way.

"I dropped my Death Note…" sighed Spike, sadly, he walked forward, ready for anyone to just say 'Here it is!'.

"Well, where did you drop it?" asked the same Shinigami.

"The pony world." Spike replied, quietly.

"Isn't that your second book that you tricked the Shinigami King into giving you? Harsh, bro." said another Shinigami, playing Go Fish with another Shinigami.

"I know…I know…" sighed Spike, as he went to the pony world, in search of his Death Note.

Light shoved her bag down, pulled out the notebook and laid it flat on her desk. She opened the first page, and it read 'Instructions'.

"Damn…It's in English." she said, before trying to translate.

The instructions were as follows: 1. If you write a person's nae in this notebook, that person will die in 40 seconds.

2. If no cause of death is specified, the person will die of a heart attack.

3. After writing the cause of death, you have 6 minutes and 40 seconds to write the details of the death.

4. You must be thinking about the pony's face as you write there name, to stop others with the same name dying.

'Interesting…' Light thought.

Author's Note 2: Hope you liked. The story will only slightly differ, in parts, to the story of Death Note.
