//------------------------------// // Provocative Poisoning // Story: Life's End // by Nightingale28 //------------------------------// Bon Bon walked down the stairs from her bedroom to the kitchen. She began to make herself a cup of coffee, like she did every morning. Ponyville...wasn’t the safest anymore, ponies turning up dead wasn’t uncommon and that was a truly grim thought. Despite this Bon Bon tried to stay in the best of spirits, knowing that fear and grief would get her nowhere. She opened the fridge door and got out her coffee creamer, pouring it into her coffee mug and stirring it with a spoon. She took a sip, and noticed a strange taste to her coffee that she hadn’t ever tasted before. It smelled like...bitter almonds. Bon Bon felt a wave of nausea wash over her, as she started retching violently. She gasped for air but couldn’t seem to draw enough into her lungs. Bon Bon’s eyes rolled up into her head as she hit the floor with a thud.
