Evil Intentions
Malice looked at the dark wasteland surrounding her castle.
"In a perfect world everything is dark and dreary and I alone shall rule. There will be no room for happiness and love."
Malice knew that love was something that made you weak. The more people you loved, the more people could hurt you. No one would hurt her, she made sure of that.
A raven flew in from outside and landed on her arm.
"What news do you bring me my pet?"
"Your plans were put into action. Mr. Moochick has been killed and Ember has been captured."
Malice stroked the bird softly.
"I sense you are holding back. Is there something I should know?"
The raven's fear showed and he knew that no matter what he said, his fate was sealed.
"I regret to inform you that Mr. Moochick's documents about the rainbow were gone and so was his assistant. One of your soldiers also brutalized one of the ponies beyond recognition. We aren't sure that she will stay alive long enough to tell them where Ember is being taken."
Malice flung the bird into the air and closed the window.
"You fools! You idiots! Do you realize how important that rainbow is!? Moochick's death means nothing if those ponies learn the truth from his documents!"
The raven flew around the room trying to find a way out.
Malice laughed at his pitiful plight.
"There is no escape. You know what the punishment for failure is."
"Please give me another chance. I won't fail you again."
"I know."
Malice began to scream as dark wings grew from her slender back, sharp white fangs formed, and talons sharpened. Her eyes glowed red as a dark mist formed from her mouth.
"A thousand dark daggers rip this wretched soul apart!"
The raven screamed in agony as invisible daggers began to slice him open. An invisible force held him still and made him watch as he was torn apart.
After his screams were silenced Malice reverted. She walked to the door and called to her shadows.
"Clean up this mess and when the other men come back, invite them to join me for a feast. I want to congratulate them for all their hard work."
Her evil grin could hardly be contained as she thought about the horror she would inflict on them. Her plans had been almost a complete failure. She only hoped that wretched pony would survive to send them on a journey delivering Megan and the rainbow straight to her.
"Once the rainbow is gone and Megan is mine I will rule this land of eternal darkness."
