Part One
Applejack fiddled with the video camera in her hooves, recording a video to send to her friends. The video feed was being stupid and not working, which mildly irritated the orange earth pony.
"Is this stupid thing on...? C'mon, work, dangit!" she huffed, tapping the top of the camera with her right hoof. Thankfully, the feed came up.
"Ah! There it is. Hey, y'all! You can see me, right?" She smiled, seeing herself in the camera feed. Remembering the situation she was meaning to record, however, she sighed.
"Unfortunately, I ain't recordin' this for fun... I-I think something's wrong with Applebloom. She won't eat, she hasn't come out of her room... T-The other night, her teeth just... up and fell out! All of 'em!" She scowled a bit, glancing behind her at her darkened bedroom.
"...H-Here, I'll just show y'all." She said, carrying the camera in her hooves as she left her room, heading to Applebloom's. The sound of creaky floorboards filled Applejack's ears, along with the sound of her own heartbeat and breathing.
She took a deep breath, then opened the door to Applebloom's room in what felt like days. Her face fell as she saw the state of her little sister's bedroom. There were deep claw marks on the wall, the bed was in complete disarray and the blankets looked... muddy? Dark red was splattered on the floor by her toy box.
"...Sugarcube...? You okay...?" Applejack asked, squinting in the darkness. She swore she could see the faint outline of Applebloom's head peeking over the bed. But as she got closer to Applejack... Something was obviously wrong. Her smile was unnaturally wide, her mouth full of jagged teeth. Her hooves seemed cracked, forming rudimentary claws. There were wounds all over her body. But her eyes... where were they?
"...W-What in the world...?" Applejack stammered, crying out as the thing that used to be Applebloom lunged at her, causing her to scream and drop the camera.
And then the feed cut off.
