It had to be now, thought Sassy. She needed to leave here, her and her foals, before he could hurt them. Her eyes still on the door after her daddy had left, the mare’s breathing became rapid and frantic, Seth’s insidious, hateful glare burned into her mind. While Sassy couldn’t be sure what he was planning to do with her, the mare knew that she and her foals were in mortal danger. Looking around the bathtub, it was clear that she couldn’t leap over it’s rim, not from the bottom at least. Desperation began to cause Sassy’s mind to spiral back, to all the nights of abuse her old daddy had inflicted apon her, and the night he took her leg. Looking down at her pile of foals, the scared, blind fluffies cheeping in a panic from Candyfloss’ terrified screams, Sassy was determined to spare them such a fate. Her poor blue colt had already lost a wing, a cruel lesson from her daddy, and the mare simply couldn’t bear them to suffer here any longer. One by one, Sassy scooped them up, kissing them and singing softly to them, their frantic peeps now softer and slower as she put them on her back.
With all of her foals now clutching firmly to her mane, save for one, Sassy looked to Candyfloss, the little foal still chirping slightly as she glanced around the tub, nuzzled behind Craven. While still sobbing, it was clear that the broken unicorn was oblivious to the foal, trying her best to hide from one of the monsters that had scared her so badly, that had even hurt her. As Sassy approached her, Candyfloss eyes focused on the mare, her cheeping now fervent as she tried to hide behind Craven’s bulk.
“*screeeeeee!!! …*chirp…*chirp…mun’sta!!! …*chirp…*chirp…hewp!!! …*chirp…*chirp…”
It pained Sassy to see her own child so scared of her. She was ashamed of how she had handled the fight with Plucky, but from her point of view, it had been mostly his fault. It was as though he liked their new daddy, like he couldn’t grasp why Sassy wanted to escape. And he had hit her! Sassy still had trouble believing that her once wonderful and gentle special friend had grown so cruel. While she could never truly love or even trust Plucky ever again, Sassy knew deep down, that it wasn’t his fault, it was her new daddy’s. When they had lived outside, it wasn’t an easy existence, but she had never doubted how much the pegasus had loved her. But ever since their abduction, Plucky’s attitude had soured quickly, especially towards Sassy.
Not wanting to frighten her daughter any further, Sassy leaned down and began to calmly call out to her, trying to raise her voice above Craven’s whimpering sobs.
“It am otay babbeh…Mummah am hewe fow yu. Mummah wuvs yu! Comes tu mummah an’ fwuffies wiww weeb dis scawy pwace. Jus’ p’wease…comes tu mummah…”
Despite the soft and gentle tones of her voice, Candyfloss refused to emerge from behind the crying unicorn, the foal clearly still frightened from the plethora of panicked chirps and peeps coming from behind Craven. After several moments of continuing to gently coax her foal out, Sassy grew frustrated. There wasn’t time for this, as her daddy could be back at any moment. Sassy could still see the terrible stare he had given her before leaving, a cold chill passing through her just thinking about that hateful glare. While she didn’t know what her daddy had planned for her punishment, Sassy knew that it was better to leave now than to find out.
Forcing her self upright again, Sassy decided it may be easier to convince Craven to move, as it was clear that Candyfloss was far too scared to come out willingly. Putting her front hoof gently onto the mewling unicorn, Sassy tried to gently push him aside.
“Sa’see nee’ C’waven tu mobe ovah…Sa’see wan babbeh dat hide’n behinds C’waven…”
Budging only slightly, Craven tensed up at Sassy’s gentle nudging, his light sobbing going into full hysterics again as he violently shoved her backwards, with Sassy falling awkwardly on her back. Yelping slightly from the shock, she looked up from the bathtub floor, a hint of growing anger in her eyes.
“Dummeh C’waven! Nu gib meanie pushies tu Sa’see!”
As she rose again, the fluff on her back slightly standing up, Sassy tried to fight her growing frustrations as best she could. But even as she spoke to him, Craven ignored her, his bawling being too loud to speak over. Worse still, the unicorn’s sudden yelling and awkward shifting was clearly upsetting Candyfloss even more, the confused foal now screaming as the one fluffy she had trusted was beset by terrors that she couldn’t see.
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! …*huuu…huuu…huuu…*SCREEEEEEE!!! …*huuu…huuu…huuu…*SCREEEEEEE!!! …”
*chirp…*chirp…fwend huwt?! …*chirp…*chirp…mun’sta huwt fwend?! …*chirp…*chirp…
Without understanding why her friend was so upset, Candyfloss had leapt to the conclusion that her mother, the monster had injured Craven. Her terrified chirps now became rapid, the foal now shrieking in response to the unicorn’s screams.
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! …*huuu…huuu…huuu…*SCREEEEEEE!!! …*huuu…huuu…huuu…*SCREEEEEEE!!! …*huuu…huuu…huuu…*SCREEEEEEE!!! …”
“*chirp…*chirp…screeeeeee!!! …*chirp…*chirp…hewp!!! …*chirp…*chirp… sabe fwu’fees!!! …*chirp…*chirp…*screeeeeee!!! …”
“C’waven…yu nee’ tu cawms down…C’waven’s yewwin’ an’ show’tees am maekin’ babbeh scawed…”
Wobbling back over to Craven, Sassy reached out once again, trying to lightly grasp the unicorn to move him aside. His glassy eyes shifting to her hoof, Craven screamed, flailing his front legs violently, striking Sassy several times in her muzzle.
“*SCREEEEEEE!!!”
Trying in vain to cover her face with her only front hoof, Sassy tumbled over, her vision blurred as she held her aching head. While she slowly rose to her feet once again, Craven’s panicked screeching had grown far worse, the unicorn’s confused terror sending Candyfloss into a frenzy of horrified screams, the combination grating on Sassy’s last nerve.
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
“*screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!!”
“Wisten tu Sa’see…Yu nee’ tu…”
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
“*screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!!”
Her eyes closing as she tried to black out the discordant noise, Sassy gritted her teeth, once again attempting to calm the wailing unicorn.
“C’waven!!! Wai yu nu…”
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
“*screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!!”
“Babbeh…p’wease nu cwy…”
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
“*screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!!”
“C’WAVEN!!! SA’SEE AM TAWKIN’ TU…”
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
“*screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!!”
“STAHP YEWWIN’!!! P’WEASE STAHP!!!”
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
“*screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!!”
“NU MOWE!!! NU MOWE SHOW’TEES!!!”
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
“*screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!! *screeeeeee!!!”
“DAT AM ENUFF!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
As she had struggled over and over to try and quell Craven’s fervent screaming, Sassy grew frustrated. Staring as the braindead unicorn, she started to growl, as her thoughts went back to her abduction. Suddenly lunging, Sassy shrieked, her head plowing violently into Craven’s stomach before savagely striking the downed unicorn over and over.
“NU MOWE SHOW’TEES!!! NU MOWE!!! SA’SEE HATCHU!!! HATCHU!!! SA"SEE KNO!!! SA’SEE KNO C’WAVEN WEAD DADDEH TU HEWD!!! AM C’WAVEN’S FAWT!!! IT AWW AM C’WAVEN’S FAWT!!! *SCREEEEEEE!!!”
Her mind had gone blank, with Sassy’s striking against Craven’s face countless times, past the point of her hoof stinging and going numb. As she finally came to, her breathing slow and labored, she felt the blood dripping down her body, and saw the unicorn’s ruined head, with only the outer skull still intact and the middle a slurried mix of blood, bone, and brain matter. Feeling a pang of guilt for going so far, Sassy then gasped, her eyes falling to Candyfloss, the foal still partially hidden underneath the unicorn’s corpse, her eyes wide as she stared at her mother. Looking at what she had done and then her blood covered fluff, Sassy reached out for the quivering fluff.
“It am otay nao babbeh…Mummah am gowna taek yu an’ odah babbehs faw way’ fwom hewe…”
As her hoof came close to Candyfloss, the trembling foal only flinched away, her eyes firmly closed as Sassy neared her. Traumatized to the point of silence, the foal only lightly squirmed as she was grasped, with Sassy then lightly scruffing Candyfloss with her teeth, the foal’s only protest the occasionaly chirp as she tried to wiggle and writhe free. Looking back down to Craven’s corpse, Sassy nearly gagged, but the unicorn’s cadaver gave her an idea.
It was a good question, thought Seth. While he knew that Candyfloss was a keeper, he didn’t have any long term plans for the rest, save for tomorrow of course. “Well Plucky, I was kinda planning to give Candyfloss to another fluffy mamma. A really nice one that will take good care of her.” His dour expression lifting, Plucky slowly started to smile.
“Weawwy?! Daddeh am gowna gib babbeh to nices’ mummah fwuffy?! Dat am su guds! Buh…buh wat bout’ odah babbehs?”
Taking his hand, Seth started to lightly pet Plucky down his mane, enjoying the pegasus’ gentle coos with each calming stroke. “I don’t know just yet buddy. I’m not going to lie, Sassy was very bad, and to punish her I may need to hurt one of your babies…maybe even kill it…” Tensing away from Seth’s hand, Plucky started to tear up as he stared upward at Seth, dumbfounded.
“Buh…*huuu…huuu…huuu…buh P’wuky wuv babbehs…P’wease daddeh…nu…nu gib babbehs foweba sweepies…*huuu…huuu…huuu…”
Crossing his arms, Seth sneered as he shook his head slowly. “Now Plucky, I warned you…Right from the start I told you what might happen. And you chose to come here anyway. And look what you have to show for it. Sassy betrayed you, has even tried to steal your foals from you. The only thing you have now is me. I…I think you’re a good fluffy Plucky…” While it may have sounded corny, Seth truly meant it, even if it was a little embarrassing. He had really taken a liking to the little pegasus, almost being reminded of a young Ash. “…So while I don’t want to make you sad, the fact is that at least one of your babies is probably going to die tonight. It won’t be Candyfloss, that I can promise. And if it helps you feel better, I can take all the ones that live and have the nice fluffy take care of them too. Would that make you feel better?”
Still sobbing slightly, Plucky stared downward, his eyes on the floor as he anxiously dragged his hoof across the floor.
“Am deww nu odah way’? P’wuky wuv aww babbehs! Nu wan any babbeh tu gu foweba sweepies…Gib P’wuky huwties n’sted! Gib P’wuky foweba sweepies n’sted! Jus’ p’wease…nu huwt babbehs…”
Looking down at the sullen little stallion, Seth was truly torn. While he was dead-set on torturing and eventually killing one of the foals to teach Sassy a lesson, Plucky’s bravery and pleas for mercy and even his offer to take their place was actually touching. Sadly, despite what the pegasus wanted, Seth didn’t believe in half measures. Sassy had pissed him off, plain and simple. One of her foals was going to die and afterwards, the bitch would be lucky if she didn’t join them…
Sighing aloud, Seth leaned down and held Plucky gently under his muzzle, leading his head to meet his gaze. “You are too good for them, buddy…” Standing back up, Seth then backed out of the closet before shutting the door, hearing the muffled pegasus’ protests, and making his way back to the guest bathroom.
As Seth opened the door, he was quickly shocked to see Sassy suddenly charging as fast as her three legs could carry her towards the door. Almost passing him due to sheer shock, Seth scowled before lightly kicking at the mare’s front leg, with Sassy screaming as she toppled ass over head to the bathroom floor. Shutting the door, Seth looked down, noticing the blood on Sassy’s hoof and chestfluff. “…How the hell did you get out?”
Noticing that as the mare struggled to recover from her fall, her foals were chirping frantically on her mane, save for Candyfloss who was curled up and shivering inches away from Sassy’s muzzle. Leaning down, Seth carefully scooped up the foal and began to pet the quivering mass of fluff, trying his best to calm and soothe her. “There, there…It’s ok…it’s ok Candyfloss…Shhhh…Daddy’s here now…”
Trembling as she tried to rise from the floor, Sassy glared upward towards Seth.
“Yu nu am babbeh’s daddeh…”
Seth felt the heat from before rising again, that burning rage kindled by Ash and Sassy acting out, blatantly disobeying him despite what it might cost them. Gently placing Candyfloss into the bathroom sink, Seth then leaned down and slapped Sassy across her muzzle, the suddenly blow startling the mare as she shrieked before hunkering down against the floor and curling up, trying to cover herself and her foals as best she could. Leaving the mare to stew in what was to come, Seth made his way to the bathtub, gasping slightly when he discovered Craven’s corpse. Seth was slightly stunned that Sassy had killed the lobotomized unicorn, as he had been trying to subtly push Plucky into doing it himself. Seeing the trail of blood just above the corpse, Seth smiled at the ingenuity, realizing that she had used the body as a stepping stool.
“Well aren’t we clever…” Seth’s voice was even and low, so as not to further scare Candyfloss. Walking back to Sassy, Seth saw the mare try and dash out of his reach and lightly stomped his foot down on her tail.
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! WET GU!!! WET SA’SEE GU!!! SA’SEE NU WET DADDEH HUWT BABBEHS!!!”
Feigning shock, Seth smiled as he leaned in, his foot still firmly digging in to the mare’s tail. “Sweety, I’m not going to hurt your foals, but you are…” Before Sassy could even respond, Seth plucked one of her foals from her mane, a blue earthie filly and placed her onto the bathroom floor, belly up. He then grasped Sassy’s front leg and forced her hoof onto the peeping foal, it’s chirps becoming rapid and frantic as she felt her mother’s hoof slowly pressing against her. “Sassy…only a bad mamma hurts their babies…” Her eyes wide, Sassy looked to her screeching foal and then to Seth, tears slowly falling down her cheeks.
“P’wease daddeh…nu…”
Squeezing her limb tightly, Seth then forced the hoof down further, slowly pressing the foal harder and harder against the floor, it’s chirps louder and louder before the pressure from her mother’s leg was so great she couldn’t breath, with only a raspy wheeze to mark the baby’s pleading for mercy. Try as she might, Sassy tugged and pulled but couldn’t free her leg from Seth’s grasp. Desperate as she felt her daughter squirming under her hoof, she gazed at Seth, sobbing as she feebly tried to pull her leg, again and again.
“Sa’see am sowwy daddeh!!! P’wease…nu huwties babbeh!!!”
“I would never Sassy…but you on the other hand…” There was a terrible crunching sound, followed by Sassy’s dispair fueled screams, as Seth forced the hoof downward, with the poor blue foal being crushed under her own mother’s leg.
“BABBEH!!! NUUUUUUU!!!”
It was music to Seth’s ears, as Sassy shrieked on and on, with her remaining foals now chirping and peeping nervously. Letting go of the mare, Seth savored her agony as he watched her pull her hoof away from the remains, a fair bit of viscera and gore sticking to her hood and stretching from the cadaver, almost like a sneaker walking across gum. Her face falling to the crushed filly, Sassy sobbed as she tried in vain to pull the gory pile closer, her front hoof around it in a grim parody of a hug.
“*huuu…huuu…huuu…WAI!!! SA’SEE WUV BABBEH!!! WAI DADDEH GIB BABBEH FOWEBA SWEEPIES!!!”
“I didn’t crush her Sassy…you did. Her flesh and blood are stuck to your hoof. Candyfloss was right…you are a monster…” His mind drifting slightly to the two-toned foal, Seth suddenly had a terrible idea as a grin slowly grew across his face. Making sure that the foals were free of Sassy’s mane, he scruffed the crying mare and lifted her to the sink, making sure that her face was towards Candyfloss. As the foal saw her mother, her face bruised and discolored, her fluff covered in blood, the poor filly began to chirp and screech, covering her eyes with her hooves as she lowered down in the sink, a small trail of urine falling from her haunches into the drain.
“*screeeeeee!!! …*chirp…*chirp…nuuuuuuu!!! …*chirp…*chirp…mun’sta wan ba’beh!!! …*chirp…*chirp…”
As Seth saw Sassy try and speak, no doubt trying to calm the foal, or even explain what was happening, Seth struck her firmly in the throat, her eyes bulging as she coughed and struggled to breathe. Now for the difficult part, thought Seth, as he leaned his arm outward and away, watching Candyfloss carefully and making sure that her covered eyes neither opened nor saw what he was doing.
His hand now discreetly above the foal, Seth quickly pinched her by her still forming mane, lifting her as she peeped and chirped her displeasure.
“*screeeeeee!!! ba’ upsies!!! …*chirp…*chirp…hewp!!! …*chirp…*chirp…”
Slowly pulling her towards Sassy, Seth used his thumb to pull at the foal’s head, forcing her eyes open as she wiggled and peeped, clearly terrified of her mother.
“*screeeeeee!!! …*chirp…*chirp…nuuuuuuu!!! …”
Taking his finger from her head, Seth then put it under her belly, now sure that her focus was on Sassy, the poor foal’s fear giving her tunnel vision, with only the pink fluffed monster in her line of sight. Forcing her tiny front hooves forward with his index finger, Seth then used his other hand from under Sassy’s chin, pushing his fingers into the sides of her mouth and forcing it open. Stifling a cruel laugh, Seth then gave his best attempt at a mocked gasp. “Sassy!!! What are you doing to Candyfloss?!” Not giving either the foal or mare a moment to react, Seth pushed the filly’s legs within Sassy’s mouth and then forced her maw closed, the mare’s eyes widening in horror as she realized what was in her mouth. Now seizing in Seth’s grip, Candyfloss gasped violently, her breathing erratic as the shock of what had just happened hit her.
“*screeeeeee!!!”
Letting Candyfloss go for the moment, Seth held Sassy’s muzzle firmly shut, using his other hand to rub her throat downward in harsh and firm strokes until he heard that long awaited gulp, with the mare’s eyes widening as she began to quiver in his arms. Placing her on the floor for the time being, Seth opened up the medicine drawer and pulled out some emergency supplies. Looking into the sink, Seth saw Candyfloss lying back down in a pool of her own blood, her breathing sharp and erratic.
Taking a thumbtack, some petroleum jelly, and a lighter, Seth then laid out a paper-towel and laid the tremoring foal atop it, her eyes bulging as she writhed and flailed. “It’s ok Candyfloss…Daddy has you now. The monster hurt you, but I can make you better again…” First, Seth cleaned off the wounds as best he could before putting a healthy bit of the jelly over each, with Candyfloss shrieking as her freshly gnawed stumps were touched.
“screeeeeee!!! nuuuuuuu!!!”
Taking a tube of toothpaste, Seth screwed off the lid and then worked the thumbtack within, making sure that he could hold it firmly before using the lighter to heat the tack’s metal top until it was red hot. While cauterization wasn’t always necessary when a foal had legs amputated, it greatly increased their survival rate, with nearly all foals who had the wound tended to making a recovery. During the pillowfluff craze a few years back, Seth heard it was common practice to use leg-boards and an assembly line with bandsaws to do the procedure on masse, with the extreme numbers outweighing the lowered survivability. If done correctly however, cauterizing the wound shortly after the injury could leave the area pliable and even able to grow bits of fluff instead of the gristly eyesores that were the stumps most pillowfluffs had.
Which is why Seth had placed the petroleum jelly onto the wounds first. As the tack was heated and a firey red, Seth grimaced only slightly. “This will hurt Candyfloss, but I promise it will help you…” Placing it firmly against the wound, it hissed angrily as the metal pressed into the flesh, searing it shut. Her eyes wide, Candyfloss’ mouth opened wide, but only a light wheezing sound came out as she flailed for a few moments before collapsing from the pain. Thankful that she’d be unconscious for the second bit, Seth heated the tack again and repeated the process with her other missing leg, the bleeding now halted. Seth smiled slightly, knowing that now, like Starburst, Candyfloss would be forever dependent on either him or Cyclops for nearly everything.
Running the faucet, Seth let the water drain out the blood before lightly scrubbing Candyfloss, making sure she was good and clean before drying her off. Placing her on the counter for a moment, Seth leaned back down and began to pluck up the chirping foals one by one and placed them in the sink, their scared and confused peeps growing more and more rapid as they tried and failed to crawl out. Satisfied that they wouldn’t fall or hurt themselves, Seth then turned his attention back to Sassy.
Ever since Seth had forced her to consume her own foal’s legs, the mare had gone quiet, only shivering and shaking on the bathroom floor. Grabbing her by her mane, Seth violently lifted her upward and threw her back into the bathtub. “If you know what’s good for you, you’ll stay in there until I get back…” Not even screaming as she collided with the porcelain, Seth chuckled slightly. He knew that being made to eat part of her own progeny would scar Sassy, but this was too good. Taking a few paper towels, Seth made a makeshift carrier and carefully lifted the foals out of the bathroom and into the living room.
As Seth walked into her view, a clearly tired Cyclops’ tail began to wag as she laid on her bed with her foals, only rising when she heard the frantic peeps coming from Seth’s hands. Meeting her owner as he crossed over the gate, Cyclops stood up against his legs, clearly desperate to see the poor fluffies that he held.
“Am dose babbehs? Dey sown’d wike dey hab huwties ow am scawdies daddeh. P’wease…wet Cy’cwops wook at babbehs…”
“Down girl…down. I know you’re worried but I have to talk to you first.” Still concerned as she hesitantly lowered herself off Seth’s leg, Cyclops looked to the barely visible fluffpile that Seth was holding.
“Otay daddeh…Cy’cwops am sowwy…”
“It’s okay sweety. Now, these are some foals that a very bad fluffy wasn’t taking care of. She even gave the worst hurties to one of them, and took her front legs…” Gasping as Seth lied to her, Cyclops began to sob lightly, her lower lip trembling as she cast a compassionate glance to the foals above her.
“Dat am su saddies! Babbehs nu am fow huwties…babbehs am fow huggies an’ wuv…Cy’cwops nu wan babbehs be sad ow hab huwties…Daddeh…me’beh Cy’cwops taek cawe of babbehs…”
Leaning down so that the mare could see them, Seth smiled to Cyclops. “That is exactly what I was wanting you to do sweety. You’re such a wonderful fluffy…” Letting the paper-towel nest down slowly, Seth put the pile of foals onto the tarp next to the concerned mare, who instantly began to sniffle and lick each and every one of them. Pleased with his decision, Seth began to lightly stroke Cyclops’ flank. "Now I also have two more foals for you to watch over, but one is big enough to eat on his own. He was also hurt badly and he lost a wing. Looking up from Candyfloss for a moment, Cyclops frowned.
“Poow huwty fwuffies…Dey aw wucky dat daddeh finds dem…”
Trying not to laugh, Seth stood up. “Now I know that there are alot of them, so I’ll be giving you more kibble so that you can feed them all. I’ll bring the others in a moment, but then daddy has to go, at least until morning ok?” Nodding emphatically, Cyclops was quickly back to nuzzling and licking the foals, slowly picking up the fluffies with her teeth one by one and placing them onto the bed.
“Otay daddeh…babbehs nee’ sweepies tu…Dey hab weawwy ba’ b’wite time…”
Walking over the fence, Seth made his way to the kitchen and picked up Raptor’s carrier. As Seth lightly jostled it, the only noise from within was the white foal’s confused peeps. Clearly the poor pegasus had blacked out from his trauma earlier. Seth then made his way back to the living room, trying to be quiet as Cyclops quietly sang on her bed, trying to calm and soothe Sassy’s foals. Seth noticed that tucked firmly under the mare’s arm was the still unconscious Candyfloss, with Cyclops occasionally nuzzling against the sleeping filly. Walking near her, Seth placed the carrier down and then pulled out Raptor and the white foal, placing them on the bed with Cyclops who began to lick and sing to the new fluffies as well.
“You are such a good momma, Cyclops…Now daddeh has things to take care of before he goes to bed. You gonna be okay with all these babies?” Smiling as she halted her song, the mare looked up to Seth, her tail wagging.
“Cy’cwops be otay…Cy’cwops wuv babbehs an’ am gud mummah…Gud nite daddeh…Cy’cwops wuv yu…”
Leaving the pleased mare, Seth made his way back to the guest bathroom. This might work out in his favor, he thought as he crossed over the fluffy-gate. With all the new foals to take care of, it would be far easier to have Cyclops’ babies have an accident without breaking her too much. Of course that all depended on how things went tomorrow, but that was for Seth to enjoy then. As he approached the door to the bathroom, Seth took a deep breath and opened the door.
To her credit, whether due to being traumatized or being too scared to misbehave, Sassy was right where Seth had left her. Getting right to the matter at hand, Seth lifted her up by her throat, the dazed mare slowly coming to as she realized she couldn’t breathe. “Now, where were we…” Both hands now firmly grasped around her neck, Seth seethed as he felt her back hooves try desperately to kick at his arms. “Oh that’s right…your punishment.” Flailing in his hands, Sassy rasped and wheezed, her eyes widening as they became bloodshot from the strain. Enjoying the look of fear and anguish in her eyes, Seth suddenly thought of Ash, shaking his head as he only gripped tighter.
“I don’t need you anymore…You hear me…I don’t need you anymore!” Losing himself a bit as he choked the life out of the poor mare, Seth began to tear up slightly, shaking Sassy back and forth wildly, even as she expired, her body going limp in his hands. Seth stood there in the bathroom for what felt like forever, his hands still firmly around the fluffy’s throat before sighing and letting her body fall to the bathroom floor. “I don’t need you anymore…”
Taking a few minutes to bag up the bodies, Seth ran the tub’s sprayer to wash away the blood, using some cleaner from under the sink to disinfect where the unicorn had been killed. Once he was satisfied, Seth made his way outside and tossed the bag into the dumpster, feeling slightly cold despite the warm July evening. Once he was done, he made his way to his room and took a long, hot shower before redressing, setting his alarm, and finally going to sleep.
End of July 3rd
