If you are reading this, I'm sorry to inform you that Ponyville's Lusts will not continue.
I know I made a promise to finish this story, but ever since the last episode of season four I have no longer any will to end my work.
To give you the short explanation: Ponyville's Lusts is now so non-canon that I just don't believe in it anymore. I tried to stay true to it but this story only tears deeper in my gut for each passing canon episode. The season finale was probably the most epic story I have ever seen in mlp history and I love it to all of my heart's content. I will continue watching the show to the end and stay a brony for the rest of my life no matter what.
However, I had prepared a long and elaborate plot line for this story and do not wish for it to end without any worth. Therefore I am going to end this story by revealing the two last arks this story had in its sleeves. I am going warn you right before you continue reading this...
Spoiler alert!
These are the concluding plot lines to Ponyville's Lusts
The Stud ark:
Twilight was kidnapped by Stud IV for the purpose that she was going to use her magic for their cause. She was meant to perform a ritual and then be sacrificed together with "the condemned" in order to summon Stud IV's ancestor: Stud I. Before this, Twilight learns about Soul Hook's dark and hopeless past, that he was originally meant to breed with Stud IV so she could have an heir. Twilight manages to convince Soul Hook that she will always be his friend no matter what, giving him the idea of escaping his criminal life. Right after the initial ritual – before she is to be sacrificed – Soul Hook rejects Stud IV's ideals and join forces with Twilight to stop the madness. They ultimately kill Stud IV by stabbing her wicked eye with a broken horn. They then disbands her gang, leaving the unholy hideout without knowing that the sacrifice of the condemned was enough to bring back Stud I in a weaker form. For reasons unknown, this revival triggers a horrible churn in Celestia's stomach...
That concludes the Stud ark.
The Ponyville Murderer ark:
When Twilight and Soul Hook return to Ponyville, they are welcomed by their loved ones. Winter Breeze has spent some time with Berry Punch and sadly interpreted her issues as pedophilia, throwing her into jail thanks to a hidden recording during a bar meeting between the two. Rainbow Dash starts to pay attention to the stalker that always seem to be close to her. She starts an investigation that leads deep into a secret murder case. Profile ponies starts to die and during the investigation, it is also revealed that the Apple family has a dark, terrible secret. Apple Bloom is not Applejack and Big Macintosh's sister: she is their daughter. Soul Hook finds out the truth about this but also that it's all related to their abusive parents who forced them to have sex in front of a camera. Applejack and Big Macintosh makes an agreement with Soul Hook to never let anypony know about this or the fact that they were the ones who killed their parents. It is never spoken of again...
While heated arguments between Fluttershy and Winter Breeze breaks out because of what she did, the murder case becomes official and the mane six gets involved to solve it. The leads and unfortunate events starts to aim at Pinkie Pie due to her odd behavior and obsession with letting ponies visit her basement. A number of those who have died had visited Pinkie's basement earlier, so Ditzy (Derpy) finds out about the murder case and starts putting two and two together. Pinkie Pie flees to her basement in panic after Ditzy leading the guards to her. They are accompanied by the other main characters and finally breaks into the basement to reveal Pinkie Pie's terrible secret... that she has her basement filled with statues made out of chocolate, candy frosting and other sweets. They are the results from her sex withdrawal that she can't control. Basically, she has sex with the statues and do things unimaginable to them just so she won't hurt her beloved Ditzy.
A lot of you were awfully convinced that Pinkie Pie was the murderer.
She was not.
It was somepony else.
Ditzy never dies, okay? You happy now?
You have no idea how many threats I received about this...
Twilight pretends that she drops the case but is now into it more than ever. She decides to work alone and uncover what the meaning of this was. Her personal evidence and investigation proves that all murder victims have one thing in common: they were all more or less connected to Rainbow Dash.
Soarin'
Doctor Stable
Lightning Dust (unrepresented)
And many others. They had all in a way been in touch with Rainbow Dash. Twilight also manages to route out where the bodies most likely has been dumped and follows the leads to an old abandoned house in the heart of Ponyville's less fortunate area. Inside she finds a hidden trap door that leads to a dark room filled with torture equipment and a table covered in blood. Twilight is shocked to realize that this old house belonged to nopony else but...
...Scootaloo.
Now I bet a lot of you got this "dafuuuuuq?!" covering your faces. This was never a quick solution, I thought through this very hard to make sure it made sense. Let me explain how:
Scootaloo was a very obsessed fan of Rainbow Dash. She had been severely abused by her parents in a younger age and always looked up to Dash as a hero and source of inspiration. Sadly, this inspiration brought her to madness, driving her to killing her parents without mercy. She then developed her obsession by never letting anypony insult or prohibit her from being an inspiration to her. Therefore she decided to kill everypony who as much as even made fun out of Dash or made her do things she didn't want to. Soarin' and Spitfire were favored targets for their heinous crime, but also the mare who at some point called Rainbow Dash lame, simply because she said it. Scootaloo could actually fly very well, she was just hiding it to make sure nopony suspected her for anything. She had also managed to pin the blame on Pinkie Pie by placing false evidence for the guards, knowing she was also kind of obsessed with Rainbow Dash. Scootaloo pledged her life to one day be together with Dash, thus the reason for why she lashed out at Twilight for being in a relationship with her.
Now... as you all know, Scootaloo proved in the canon story that she can't fly no matter what, even if nopony can see her. This ruined a lot of my head canon and tons of explanations I had in store for why Scootaloo was so obsessed. Moving on...
Scootaloo catches Twilight off guard and tries to kill her on the table. She was one of the most favored targets since she had "stolen" Rainbow Dash from her. Twilight manages to talk Scootaloo out of it and they come to a peaceful solution that she should give herself in to the guards. In exchange, her evil deeds will be kept a secret and everypony are told that she is simply moving out of town. Scootaloo is placed in an asylum for the criminally insane. She also discovers that the madness that lingers in her cell is because this was the same cell that Stud I lived in two hundred years ago. She dies a few days later from trying to draw a giant image of Rainbow Dash on the cell wall with her own blood...
That concludes the Ponyville murderer ark.
The Return of Stud ark:
As Black-Eye and Moist return to the remains of their hideout, they are met by a stranger that forces them to cooperate in his quest to restore the evil eye of Stud IV. Once restored, the stranger reveals himself to be the one and only Stud I. Now when the source of his power is back in his belonging, he is rewarded with immeasurable power for the two hundred years of misery he has caused with his blood line. He then marches to Canterlot for unknown reasons.
In the meantime, Berry Punch is released from jail due to the lack of evidence even due to the recording. Winter Breeze personal vendetta had clouded her mind and she apologizes to Berry for the troubles she had caused her.
The mane six gets a message telling them to relocate in Canterlot for a crisis of the highest grade according to Celestia. She explains that there is an evil on its way to Canterlot and the entire army is located to defend the castle. The mane six learns that Stud I has returned from the dead and that they must be prepared for what is to come.
Once Stud arrives, all hell breaks lose. Fire rains from the sky, flesh eating locusts swarms the air, the rivers turn red with blood, buildings crumble and even the streets sets on fire as Stud walks towards the castle. Thousands of ponies dies from sudden lack of oxygen and other hazards due to Stud's extreme power over placebo. In fact, the sun is shining and the streets are clean. What kills everypony is simple imaginations and illusions created by Stud I himself.
The mane six and Celestia are finally facing the evil that is Stud I. His heirs and henchmen had killed and been killed in the believe that everypony had to die in order for the world to truly be cleansed. Stud I reveals that this was a lie, also that he was in fact the result of a sad union between Celestia and Discord. Being disgraced with a child born from chaos and with divine powers such as hers, the unnamed foal was raised in secret in an attempt to make sure it grew up as a good individual. But the sinister legacy from Discord drew the foal into a madness with power, forcing Celestia to discard her son and lock him into an asylum. As the years passed, the foal was finally strong enough to break free and exact his revenge on his mother. He knew she could feel her subjects pain when they died, thus dedicated his life to kill every last pony until she would apologize to him.
The group is sickened by Stud's madness. He was seriously torturing and killing ponies by thousands for hundreds of years just because he wanted Celestia to apologize to him for locking him away. Twilight snaps into a silent rage where she takes a page from Soul Hook's book and faces Stud I by herself in a battle of wills inside their heads. An epic showdown breaks loose and the immovable Stud is shocked by Twilight's unbreakable trust and unflinching love for her friends, losing the battle by doubting his godlike powers for a second. Twilight takes the opportunity and decides to sacrifice her horn and gift in a one-way attack by charging it with one hundred percent of her latent magic and then stabbing Stud's eye for the last time. Stud's evil legacy bleeds out on the ground as his eye begins to charge all the pain and misery he has caused during the two hundred years. The souls from all the lives he had taken were sucked into his eye together with a dark cloud in a massive twister of agony and suffering. As Stud screams at the top of his lungs while enduring the absolute worst pain unimaginable, his entire eye socket bursts in a bloody explosion splattering his brain and half his skull all over the place. The blood line and legacy of Stud is finally over...
After the event and celebrations, we are given a quick recap of what happened afterward:
Pinkie Pie and Ditzy Doo decides to break up as friends. This after concluding that Pinkie Pie might eventually hurt Ditzy without meaning it. They are however always promised to each other and still hang out whenever possible.
Rarity and Cheerilee eventually separated when their interests and opinions became to different for each other. Sex alone couldn't keep their relationship intact, so they broke up just in time for them to still be friends. Sadly, they still treat each other as strangers whenever they meet.
Berry Punch and Fluttershy's relationship also ends. Berry has after some serious therapy come to the conclusion that she is no filly fooler after all and also solved her sexual issue caused by past traumas. She is however eternally grateful for what Fluttershy has done for her and her daughter. They still meet for a cup of tea every now and then so Ruby Pinch can see her "second mommy".
Twilight, doomed to walk Equestria as a pony without horn and cuite mark after her sacrifice in the battle against Stud, finally makes up her mind about who in her three-way relationship she will stay with. The answer, shocking as it may seem, is none of them. Twilight explains that she rather sees Applejack and Rainbow Dash has her friends forever instead of forcing them to stand each other whenever they want a moment alone. The friends agree, and Twilight is reward magically by regaining her cutie mark and horn after discovering the final worth of friendship.
Spike finally gets his reward for his loyalty and helpfulness to Celestia. His own memory gets wiped from Rarity's confession that she could never love him. This was so he could continue chasing the dream of winning her heart by treating her like the one and only without being depressed. Ever since then, Rarity has slowly changes her mind about Spike and actually regrets what she said to him before...
Apple Bloom and Zecora decides to break up. However, this is merely because AB is still too young for an intimate relationship according to the law. They promise themselves to each other until the day AB is old enough to make her own decisions. In the future, Apple Bloom has grown into an incredibly beautiful mare, long lost in a sea of love and passion with Zecora by her side in her home country of Zebrica.
Black-Eye and Moist, devastated after realizing they had been fooled by Stud's legacy, decides to leave their past behind and stick to each other. They are unfit to live in the real world due to their unforgivable crimes, but as long as they have each other, they need nothing else. They are last seen kissing each other passionately before walking into the sunset.
The entire story ends with the mane six sitting around a table together with Winter Breeze and Soul Hook at the Ponyville bar. They all look at each other without regrets and praise each other as the best friends you could have. They promise their friendship will never falter, their bonds never break, the truths never untold and that they are glad their new friends Winter Breeze and Soul Hook are here in Ponyville to stay. They also vow that they will never let relationships complicate their circle of friends. As they all laugh and cheer their mugs of apple cider, Soul Hook suddenly spouts "I think I love you", but nopony knows if he said it to Rainbow Dash or Winter Breeze who are sitting next to each other.
The two mares glare at each other with looks of hate.
The end
So that's the summary of Ponyville's Lusts. A little comical ending to it all. I'm sad to say that this is the last you will see from this story and I already now realize the losses I am forced to go through. I thought out the end to be a sort of compromise so it would make more sense to the canon story, but as you can see, this doesn't work out anymore.
Everything stopped making sense halfway through season two. And therefore... I've decided to let this story rest. I hope you all can forgive me for breaking my promise about ending this story. There is nothing more I can ask you all for. You might hate me forever, you might still love me. No matter what you feel: I love you all. If I start writing something else, hopefully it will pan out better than this did. So for now... for the last time from this story.
Brohoof on ya all!
