Chapter 8 Pay Back

Rainbow dashed as she finally finished another page of paper work. Her teeth and mouth muscles ached from holding the pen so long. She sighed looking at her clock before smirking 'finally it's time to rid that hedgehog of me forever.' she thought "Ben Slash get the shredders ready." she called...but there was silence. Her ear flicked usually her two loyal workers would wait outside the door and when she commanded them she would hear their hoof steps, but this time there was nothing.

Dash huffed annoyed "Ben, Slash if this is some kind of prank its not funny now I gave you an order." she said louder, but still there was nothing. Rainbow hopped of her chair and went to the door kicking it open. she was expecting to see her workers standing on either side of her office entrance, but they weren't there. The factory was still working everything was operating as it should...but the remaining workers Dash had were gone. She knew they didn't take the day off only she could order that, and Celestia defiantly didn't come cause she would have been alerted before hand.

Dash walked around the balcony her hoof steps echoing off the walls of the factory "Hello is anypony there?" Dash called. She halted her walk however feeling something wet and a squelching noise hitting her ears. Daring to look down her eyes widened pupils shrinking as she let out a startled scream as she fell back on her haunches. She had just stepped in blood and the mutilated body of her worker Slash. Her breath started getting raspy and she turned finding Ben's body his torso cut clean from his bottom half and hanging limply off a rail by his intestine. As Dash looked around more from her position she found more and more of her workers weather hanging or in pieces all over the balconies and floor.

Dash quickly got up about to turn and run when a certain someone blocked her path. Sonic smiled demonically his head tilted slightly to the side his eyes were a solid glowing red and he looked like he was crying blood due to the crimson drippy tear streaks. He started laugh "HeLlo DasH." he said his voice cracking and going deeper on some words "I see you found one of the decorations...looks like his stomach wasn't strong enough to hold him." Dash slowly began to back away her wings ready to help her take off that is until. Suddenly Sonic was right back behind her, the walls made her voice echo as she screamed in agony tears running down her sky blue cheeks. She fell on her belly ragged sobs escaping her lips. Her sides flared in fiery pain as she forced her self to stand again.

Sonic as he walked from her side towards the front of her. "There now it will make the game fair." he said dropping Dash's wings on the ground. They landed with a feathery floof a few of the blue feathers coming off and gently fluttering to the ground. Dash looked down at her wings then up at the demonic hedgehog as she slowly backed away ignoring the burning pain in her back as she stared fearfully at her attacker. Sonic smiled more before tilting his head more to the side "I'll give you a ten second head start." he said.

Dash didn't waste anytime as she turned and galloped down the large black corridor. 'If I can just make it to the emergency exit on the other side of the factory I'll be safe.' She thought adrenaline numbing her back pain 'there's no way that hedgehog can follow me through the cloud maze I know it like the back of my hoof.' She ran faster her hooves echoing through the corridor and back to a certain pair of ears. Sonic chuckled and dropped to fours before running after her laughing manically. Dash pushed herself to run faster "shit that was ten seconds already." she cursed making a sharp turn her ear flicked as she heard singing.

Sonic had stopped now nonchalantly walking through the hall, little to Dash's knowledge he had already blocked the emergency exit once he killed all the guards. Now he was taking his time in finding her after all revenge is going to be sweet. "Ding Dong here i come to find you hurry up and run let's play a little game and have fun."

He sang going up to a trott. Dash's fear immediately increased she knew that song to well after she watched a late night horror anime. It was a song of death and a very sick game a game they were currently playing. "Ding Dong where is it you've gone to? Do you think you've won? Our game of hide and seek has just begun. I hear your footsteps." Sonic sang his ear flicking at the light echoing clip clop of her hooves. "Clopping loudly through the hallways I can here your sharp breaths." his other ear twitched at the Pony's raspy breathing before he chuckled "Your not very good at hiding."

Sonic then smiled demonically and sped up into a run "Just wait you can't hide from me I'm coming Just wait you can't hide from me I'm coming Just wait you can't hide from me I'm coming just wait you can't hide from me." he chided large black claws clicking against the metal.

Dash had made it to the exit, but found it welded together. She pounded frantically on it but it was no use she was trapped with a revenge crazed hedgehog after her. Quickly she darted to one of the balcony rooms closing the door behind her. "I think I escaped." she muttered. She turned around about to make a plan on one of the boards only to gasp in horror.

Sonic smiled demonically his tilted all the way to the right. "Ding Dong I have found, Ding Dong you were hiding here now your it." Dash fell on her bottom again and began scooting back trying to get some distance between them but Sonic only walked closer straightening his head as he continued "Ding Dong finally found you dear now your it, Ding Dong looks like I have won now your it Ding Dong pay the consequence." He finished his evil tune with laughter as he stood up normal. His hand glowed red as a double bladed scythe appeared. It had crimson stripes and the blade itself looked like it was always changing color. Sonic took a step closer beginning to chuckle.

Dash had backed up as far as she could go her back now pressed against the door. "Sonic please I'm begging you don't do this." she begged tears running down her cheeks as she trembled with fear. Sonic laughed "You still haven't got it yet?" He said "I'm not Sonic...The name's iNsAnItY." with that he rose the weapon before slashing down into the pony's chest before forcefully dragging it down and yanking it out. His mouth twitched as blood sprayed everywhere some droplets landing on his cheeks as Dash's scream filled the air only to be covered by Insanity's maniacal laughter.
