Nightmare finally got to the bottom and bumped into the statue, then something smacked her in the face, She lit her horn about to fire, then she saw what hit her in the face, it was Missklang's arm.

Eeeeeeee....

 

Missklang opened his left eye and stared at Nightmare.

 

Your wish is my command. I can't disobey a direct order, can I?

 

He opened the other eye too and smiled.

 

I survived worse. Such insignificant toothpick can't by my doom. It would be ridiculous.

 

He reached his hoof and booped Nightmare. In the same time, he levitated the spear away. 

 

I do appreciate the fact you care so much about my well-being, though. Don't kill me to hard, ok? 

 

He looked at the hole in his chest.

 

Well, look at this! I am see-through now. Isn't that cool? Nah, don't give me that look. I'll fix it right away.

 

He passed his hoof on top of the wound and it disappeared.

What fun is there, without a bit of excitement?

 

He let Nightmare help him to get up. His eyes were lurking in the darkness around. As the place was extremely dusty, the particles of dust in the air didn't let the light spell lit the area good enough.

 

Well, this is a nice place, isn't it? Romantic and stuff. I always wondered, why nopony ever restore lower layers of the castles but just build around and above? Like even Canterlot has its catacombs where Cadence was trapped by Chrysalis...

Nightmare started walking and said as she outlined old cells,

"From what Shadow told me, this place was home to...a dangerous prisoner, He broke out of his cell and went on a rampage everyone in a while, he, I mean it made a riot look like kid stuff. They talked about it like it was a ghost story. Then one day, he grew mad with rage and attacked everyone here, except a mare that locked herself in a cell out of fear what the prisoner might do."

Missklang's eyes glowed a bit less.

 

Yes, indeed. That does sounds quite horrible. That must mean that the skeleton I scavenged was that exact mare... I guess she didn't make it after all. Perhaps her ghost is still here. It would make it easier to summon to the skeleton.

 

He looked in the cells, but they were empty, with occasional bits of bones. 

 

So, got a name for the killer prisoner? Heh. Imagine if it was Shadow or something like that. That would be such a magnificent scary story. And logically plausible too. Perhaps there is interesting evidence here...

Yup...

 

He looked in an old drawer and pulled a rustic vintage dress. Without waiting, he squeezed himself into it. It was brown and white and looked very steampunky. Right there, were some welding goggles as well. His glowy eyes through the tinted glasses looked quite eerie. Like if there were two lamps instead of his eyes. He went to Nightmare to showcase the beautiful dress.
