Where we last left off, we had a special guest come into the pony world. He has the spotlight in this installment of the "Two Stabs" saga.
I'm So Frustrated Right Now. There Are So Many People That Think That I Own My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. It's Not True I Tell Them. Hasbro Owns It. They Just Don't Understand.
*Cue MacGyver theme*
"What is this place?" said Dexter-Pony. "Last thing I remember was doing some field work for the Miami-Dade Police Department. And I sure as hell was not a pony. I was a human being." Dexter-Pony had many questions for Mayor Mare and Zecora. But there was no time for that, as they went on to explain.
"We brought you here because you target and kill other serial killers. We have had a problem with a serial killer in the past week. 6 of our upstanding citizens were murdered over the course of the week. And all were great friends with each other." Mayor Mare explained the situation to Dexter-Pony.
"Dexter, you are our only hope. They must be avenged. No one else has the guts to take on this killer" Zecora said. "Well, you hired the right pony for the job. As you so put it, I do indeed kill those who have killed and intend to kill again. But I follow a strict code. I have to make sure the killer is definitely guilty of the murders. And I have to make sure I never get caught" Dexter-Pony said.
Zecora said, "well that is in your world. We do things a bit differently in our world. I want you to look in my crystal ball, and watch the murders in action as they happened. That will save you a lot of work." Without hesitation, the three went to the table, and looked at the crystal ball. Dexter-Pony then said, "oh yeah, he is definitely guilty. It is a matter of finding him though."
"No problem", said Zecora. "The crystal ball tells all. It will reveal the killer's home. And there it is. It is on the outskirts of Canterlot. Follow me and I will lead you to the house. It will take a couple days to get there however. So bring some food with you. We both will."
Meanwhile, night had fallen on Ponyville. Everyone was asleep. Spike had a dream about Sweetie Belle. Since he couldn't go for Rarity anymore, he wanted the next best thing: her sister. It was quite a romantic dream. Then they started hearing a voice. "Spike...Spike..." Spike woke up, to find the spirit of Twilight Sparkle staring at him. Spike screamed so loud that it was heard in space. And they say, "in space, no one can hear you scream".
"Spike...sorry I scared you, but this is important. You are the heir to my estate. I need you to meet with my lawyer tomorrow. Cadence and Shining Armor will be there too. Can you do this please?" Twilight said. "I guess I have no choice" Spike said. All through the night, the spirits of the Mane 6 went around Ponyville, scaring more than a few. They had some unfinished business here.
At Sweet Apple Acres, Applejack's spirit was guarding the place, making sure nothing caused trouble. Rarity kept an eye on her little sister. Rainbow Dash patrolled the sky, as did Fluttershy. Pinkie Pie guarded Sugarcube Corner. As soon as morning broke, the Mane 6 went back to Heaven.
Now, back with Dexter-Pony, they finally reached the killer's house. Mare said, "good luck Dexter. Be careful." Zecora said "avenge our friends!" Zecora used magic to make the door disappear. Dexter-Pony walked in. He saw the killer playing Solitare. Dexter-Pony said, "so you like to kill huh?" The stallion said, "what's it to you?"
"I kill too, only in the name of justice." Dexter-Pony approached the stallion with a knife, and sliced his throat open. Within a few minutes, he was dead. "Another job well done. Now we have to bury the body" said Mare. Dexter-Pony had something else in mind. He got out some gasoline, and poured it all over as he walked to the door.
"Get out!" he said, both obliged. As soon as all were out the door, Dexter-Pony lit a match, and dropped it on the trail of gasoline. Within a few minutes, the whole house was in flames. "Wow you're really something Dexter" said Mare. "Well you said you do things different in this world. So I thought of this."
A few days later, they came back to Zecora's hut. Zecora summoned the same portal that brought Dexter-Pony into this world, and he jumped in, after bidding farewell. The Mane 6 could now rest in peace, knowing their killer met his demise.
Things soon went back to normal in Ponyville, or as normal as could be in this time. Regular classes soon resumed at the Ponyville Schoolhouse. The Cutie Mark Crusaders returned after some time being absent. And with the Mane 6 gone, they were the town's new favorite citizens, even though they still had not acquired their cutie marks yet.
At Sugarcube Corner, the Cakes had more business than ever. Without Pinkie Pie eating all that was supposed to be sold to customers, they actually made a huge profit. This isn't to say they were glad she was dead. They missed her a lot. Their new employee was different from her. She actually did not try to pass herself off as a food-taster.
At the meeting of Cadence, Shining Armor, Spike, and Twilight Sparkle's lawyer, Twilight's will was read. Spike was given the deed to her house, since Cadence and Shining Armor had a place of their own already. Twilight's fortune was split among the three. She didn't have all that much money, but still. Spike decided to get a job at the Ponyville book store, to make some more money.
Sweetie Belle meanwhile, began following in the footsteps of her late sister, and started to design clothes. Her first designs were rather simple, being a newcomer to the whole thing, but they sold. With time, she became as good as Rarity.
Apple Bloom was now the lead Applebucker at Sweet Apple Acres. She had a lot to learn about work on the farm. It was going to take some time, but in the end it would result in her getting her cutie mark finally. She got a lot of help from the other family members.
Scootaloo began practicing for joining the Wonderbolts. She had a long way to go, but hopefully she would get in. Being able to perform great stunts in front of large audiences was something she wanted to do. She began all this in honor of her idol, Rainbow Dash.
Spike meanwhile wrote a letter of recommendation that he continue Twilight's studies of friendship and such to Princess Celestia. She agreed, and although Spike was a dragon, he would be good for the job.
The pets of the Mane 6 all finally received new homes. For example, Gummi was given to Mayor Mare. Tank was left with the Cakes. Owlowiscious became Spike's.
Every Nightmare Night, the spirits of the Mane 6 came to haunt Ponyville, for they thought they had an obligation to do so. Other than that, Ponyville was pretty normal.
THE END
Well how about that? We finally reach the end of the saga. Things are up and running in Ponyville again. I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did.
