One Shod

On January 3 of 2015, The Hub's programming network would be hijacked and broadcast an altered episode of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic" without the knowledge of the CEO or the employees. After the hijacking was muffled with a bumper, with many unsuccessful attempts prior, every computer was thoroughly investigated in The Hub Television Network building, only to find no sign of flash files, video files, or evidence pointing to an employee causing the problem. 
During an airing of "Transformers: Prime," the transmission froze in the middle of the time slot and immediately cut to the My Little Pony episode, "Luna Eclipsed." After the prologue and intro were finished, it began with some slight differences. The title, now changed to 'One Shod' in Arial font, appeared as though it had been hastily edited over the episode’s original startup. All of the credits were removed and replaced with black squares.
Reports said that the episode proceeded as usual, up until around 14 minutes in. The scene where Luna shouts in her Canterlot voice to the other ponies halted at the lightning strike and instantly cut to grayscale. Text faded in.
"Look what you made me do."
The episode resumed as if nothing had happened for another minute, with no commercial break. During the scene where Twilight tries to reason with Luna, prompting her to not listen, the frame froze again on the shot of her walking away. Text appeared onscreen again like before. This becomes recurrent throughout the broadcast.
"Everyone has it mistaken. Every time."
Cut to a scene from the second episode of the series involving Celestia reuniting with Luna. The two hug. 
"I wasn't just sent to the moon. No."
The scene slowly revealed real footage of the moon being recorded from earth, with the ambience of crickets and cicadas taking up the background sounds. In comes more text, this time having a gradual fading sequence per sentence.
"I was trapped in the moon. Emphasis on 'in.' The rocks closed in on my flesh. I had the smallest ounce of power left. Just enough. I could hardly breathe." 
Cut to an animation of Nightmare Moon, shivering in a semi-fetal position, her eyelids misaligned, bags forming underneath them. She gave the impression of someone who had been sleepless for ages. The background consisted of nothing but a simple rock texture with low exposure. Sounds of radio chatter rang out.
"You enclosed me, your own skin and blister, in a claustrophobic nightmare. For one thousand years. For one millennium. I stopped thinking; right until the moment I was released. What else was there to think about at that moment? Your mind would have eventually emptied itself if you saw nothing but gray."
A jump cut transitions to the next scene, which is now much quieter than the previous one. Luna was in the castle's dining room, alone, eating what appears to be a stack of pancakes. Expressionless. The animation of her chewing, swallowing, and putting another forkful in her mouth cycled.
"You really thought I was telling the truth when I told you I forgave you? And you're supposed to be the wise one. The truth was, hearing you decide how I should feel made my stomach churn, but I kept calm. I had other plans to get my two cents in. Good thing you're not as strong as you think you are."
The looping ended. Luna scraped the excess food into a trash bin before slowly trotting over to Celestia's bedroom. She would peep through the doorway, seeing that she was asleep before making her way inside, and standing next to her bed, her head now completely invisible from the screen's view, and the only light illuminating the room being from the night sky outside of her window. 
"But don't worry, it will only last a few seconds. It shouldn't be a problem for you, considering you like yourself so much. The most precious thing being your dignity."
Luna's horn lit up, and her hoof lifted itself into view. What looked like one of Celestia's golden shoes slipped onto Luna's hoof via her levitation magic. The princess of the night loomed over her sister’s body shortly after climbing onto the bed, draping her in shadow.
"One shod will end my grudge. Vengeance is mine."
With one swift knock from the bottom of Luna's hoof, Celestia's head jerked to its side, but her eyes didn't open. As if she were temporarily unconscious from Luna's kick. A moment of nothing commenced, and Luna stomped on her sister's head. She stomped again after a small period of time, and again. And again. And again, with the last two striking Celestia's horn. Viewers claimed a large chip could be seen in the side of her horn from the last two kicks.
Celestia awoke, seeing her own flesh and blood stood above her, like predator to prey. Instead of there being text, she actually spoke.
"Oh my... m-my head hurts. Sister, what are you doing h-"
Celestia was immediately stifled by Luna's opposite hoof, cramming into her mouth. As the sequence of the moon princess strenuously stomping the air and life out of her dear sister set in motion, the first three kicks pinned against her throat to prevent her from calling for help, what sounded like copyrighted music slowly increased in volume. Albeit, slowed and heavily reverbed. Rumor has it that this song may have been "Heaven is a Place on Earth" by Belinda Carlisle.
Eventually, in the midst of the music, the last stomp against poor Tia's pharynx emitted a snap.
Luna sluggishly stepped off of the bed and, using her magic, gently removed the hoof wear, before leaving the room. Muted noises of running water went on for an uncomfortably long time. Afterwards, Luna made her way back to Celestia's bedroom and shoved the pointed end of the hoof wear into her uvula before clearing her throat. 
Feigning fright, she screamed. The scene darkened, and all that could be heard was the guard stallions of Canterlot racing into the royal bedroom. In the midst of the background noise, Luna yelled about how she woke up to find her sister murdered. Before The Hub's next/now/later bumper came onscreen, no credit roll to be seen, one last quotation phased in.
"Words conceal. Poison spews."
