The Purple Mare.
Chapter Two.
Adjusting.
David stormed through the doors, Cadence ran after him.
''David! Please calm down!'' Cadence shouted, trying to keep up him, ''I wanted to tell you but they swore me to secrecy!'' Cadence added.
''You have no right to tell me to calm down!'' He snapped back at the alicorn, ''You have no idea what that bitch put me through! You have no idea what i went through being that twisted monster for fifteen years!'' He snapped, Cadence took a step back in surprise at her brother's outburst, he started walking away
''David, please lets talk about this!'' Cadence snapped back, still standing where she was, David stopped in his tracks and looked back at her.
''How am i going to explain this to Dashie?'' David said, looking back at Cadence.
''We tell her together, i'll explain the things you don't understand or are unaware of.'' She replied, ''I promise you, I will help you two through this.'' She added, walking over to him and hugging him.
''Be warned, she's been a bet cranky lately.'' He responded, walking over to the doors at the end of the hall. The doors opened and David came face to face with a very panic filled Rainbow.
''Whoa! Hey Dashie." David said, the pegasus looked it him with a look of both fear and anger, she instantly hugged him.
''Rainbow, you may seat down, their is something we need to tell you.'' Cadence said, gesturing to a bench near by.
They walked over to the bench and sat down on it.
''Whats wrong?'' Rainbow tilted her head, her ears flopped over to the side. David took a deep breath.
''I was called to the palace because i've been tasked with helping the reformation program in Tartarus, but the only problem is the pony i've been tasked with helping is... how i say this...'' David replied, Rainbow looked into his blue eyes, he kissed his forehead.
''Please me." Rainbow looked at his face, ''Don't lock me out, let me in...'' She added, David took a deep breath again.
''The pony i've been task with is Starlight.'' He said, Rainbow's facial expression changed.
''What?'' Rainbow softly said, ''Your joking right?'' She said, smirking slightly.
''It's... true Dash.'' David said, Rainbow face went cold, ''She will be staying with us until she is reformed...'' He added.
''Rainbow, with a pony of her powers, you will be watched closely for any signs that her reformation isn't working.'' Cadence said, ''it was a good thing i convinced you to live in the palace.'' The alicorn added, Rainbow cracked a smile.
''Rainbow, go back to the party and then the others. I'll go and get Starlight... i mean Starspring.'' David said, kissing her cheek.
Starspring sat on cold stone floors, the glow from her red eyes barely lighting her face as she sat in the dark and damp dungeon, the wires pouring from her left ears fizzled and hissed in the damp air, making her twitch ever so slightly. She looked down at a puddle of water, she saw her former self, Starlight Glimmer staring back at her, she put her animatronic hoof in the puddle, the ripples in the water made the image fade, the reflection was now the suit. Starspring pulled the mask open, she looked at the reflection of Starlight's corpse, her corpse.
''I'm a monster...'' She sighed, her red eyes flickered. She heard hoof steps, she shut her mask backup as four guard, Cadence and David appeared at the iron gate.
''Let me guess, you've come to gloat at me." Starspring bluntly said, turning away from the gate, ''Well go then, gloat.'' She added, gritting her endoskeleton teeth, she then heard the gate open with a creak. She turned to see the four guards pointing spears at her.
''Get up prisoner.'' One of the guard said, Starspring stood up, the Spring-Locks creaked as an iron collar and chain were placed around her neck, the second guard pulled on the chain, signalling her to move along with them. Her metal rear legs clanked as she walked up the stone stair case and onto the crystal floors of the palace above, unbeknownst to everyone, as she walked, Starspring leaked a faint trail of blood and oil.
Cadence, David, the guards and Starspring reached David's area of the palace, David unlocked the door, Cadence and Starspring stepped inside, the guards, now off duty, went home, leaving the three alone. The collar was taken off by Cadence, Starspring went over to a spot of floor in the living room and laid down like a cat.
''Now David, if anything happens, call me straight away. I don't trust her one bit." Cadence said, gritting her teeth.
''I heard that...'' Starspring said, sounding depressed, ''You were meant too!'' Cadence shouted back, ''What ever...'' Starspring added.
''Yes Cadence, i'll let you know if and only if something goes wrong.'' David said, waving Cadence off. He turned away from the door and walked over to where Starspring was laying.
''Ok Starspring, i'm gonna say this once and only once, if you ever turn to hurt my family, i will take a blowtorch to you.'' David gritted his teeth, pulling something out of the cupboard behind him.
''Sure, what ever...'' She replied, burying her face into the carpet. ''I wasn't joking!" He replied, pulling out a blowtorch and lighting it, it roared as the blue flame rose out the end.
''Ok, ok.'' Starspring said, trembling at the sight of the blowtorch, David released the trigger, the flame died out.
Sapphire, Rainbow and Blood Cream walked back to their area of the palace, Sapphire opened the door and heard voices.
"Dad! Is that you?" Sapphire shouted, walking towards the source of the voices, she walking into the living room and froze when she saw Starspring.
''Hello, Sapphire.'' Starspring said in a depressing tone
"It's you!" Sapphire snapped.
A building sat abandoned and alone, slowly collapsing in on itself. A rusting sign layed on the ground outside, most of the lettering fell off the sign, making it now say 'F_ed_y F_zb_ar's P_z_a'.
Two teenagers explored the ageing building, the first teenager, a pegasus, had a flashlight on, shining it on the walls, most of the paint of the walls had faded, leaving the bare brick work visible.
''This place sure looks different since the children were freed.'' Said the pegasus, her name was Nyan, the other teenager, an earth pony, trembled in terror.
''Can't we just go now.'' Said the earth pony, his name was Blitzpony, following Nyan towards a room near the bathroom, a now faint trail of dried blood was leading to a doorway.
Nyan pushed the door open and stepped into the room and looked around, on the back wall of the room was dried blood splatter.
''Wow, this is the very place where Springtrap was born.'' Nyan said, pulling out a camera and taking a picture. Blitzpony trembled as he waited for his friend to reappear from the room, his ears twitched when he heard metallic clanks.
''Nyan, do you hear that?'' He said, Nyan appeared from the room, the clanking kept going before stopping.
''Blitz, its an old building, probably just the pipes.'' Nyan said, putting her camera back in her saddle bag.
The two walked around the building, following a trail of dried blood and cracked tiles, following in the footsteps of Springtrap. They looked into the office, shattered glass littered the West side of the office and a smashed and crushed phone on the floor in the middle of the office. Nyan took more photos, Blitzpony found a tablet laying on the desk, he walking over to it and tapped the screen, he was surprised when it flickered to life and displayed a view of the camera in the 'Back Stage & Spare Parts' room. Most of the animatronic suit heads that sat on the shelves were now just a pile of rusted metal and rotting felt. He tapped on the cameras, nearly all of then were now not working, with the exception of 'Funtime Cove' , the curtains that once hung above the cove's stage were now all tattered and rotting.
Something caught Blitzpony's eye, behind one of the curtains was a white spot, he blinked and the dot disappeared.
''Hmm, may of just been dust on the lens of the camera.'' Nyan said, looking over Blitz's shoulder, ''Come on Blitz, lets get going before we get caught.'' She added, walking out the office, Blitzpony followed her towards the exit. The clanking started again, followed by something else.
''You shouldn't be here.'' A glitchy voice box said, a drop of oil landed on Nyan's shoulder, she looked up and shone her flashlight at the ceiling, some wires scurried away from the light.
A pair of glowing white dots appeared behind the two, Blitzpony and Nyan saw the glow and turned around and saw the two dots, then a third dot, coloured neon blue, appeared to the left of the dot on the right. The blue and the white dot then rotated around each other until the blue dot was between the two white ones.
''What the fuck is that!'' Nyan screamed, wires appear from the darkness and wrap around the flashlight and threw it away.
''Who or what are you!'' Blitzpony said, stepping back from the dots.
''They call me... The Tangle.'' It said, the dots barely lighting its face, it swung down and screeched.
