MLP Dramatic Reading: Bullet Point
Project Overview
24th this is the last extension i will make after this the casting will be finalized!
More In Depth details are provided in the included video.
The Story:http://www.fimfiction.net/story/174483/bullet-point
When Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie travel to a private estate in the middle of nowhere in response to a seemingly innocent invitation, their lives are plunged into total despair when they are imprisoned alongside thirteen other ponies and forced to take part in a game where it's kill or be killed.
Warning: This story takes heavy inspiration from Dangan Ronpa so be prepared for: Blood, Murder, Dark Humour, and Over the Top Cartoony Violence.
In case you don't know what Dangan Ronpa is here are the first executions of both games to show
what you are getting into: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeV-ph1lxfA & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eotlv4tE6RI the deaths of dangan ronpa normally have some sort of thematic or ironic design to them(Leon a star baseball player is machine gunned by a pitching machine and Teruteru a chef is deep fried.) and Bullet Point's are no different(well actually they are but you know what i mean't!)
this story contains a prolouge and epilouge with five cases in between and each case is split into there sections: murder, investigation. & finally Trial/Execution. i want to have fun with this so i am planning on challenging the Viewer/listeners to guess the victim, culprit, and method of murder for each case. the first person to correctly guess any of these wil win a prize whether it be a song cover, a reaction video to something of their choosing, pretty much anything i can provide within reason of course.
you don't have to sound exactly like the characters as long as you make the performance belivable imagine how you would react in this sort of situation and go from there.
I look forward to everyone's auditions and just remember to have fun!

a well-known supermodel from canterlot.only had one line in the actual series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQE56QW3NQI
in this story she has a subtle french accent hidden behind her upper class tone. Fleur is one of the most level-headed ponies trapped within the manor and tends to take charge when the situation calls for it.
That’s probably for the best, we shouldn’t take any unnecessary risks. So who was searching the second floor?
I am going to continue to search the house, these old buildings are notorious for secret rooms and passages. It is possible we overlooked some yesterday.
Well I think we’ve gotten a good bearing of the house, thank you all for your cooperation, I know we’re all eager to get out of here, but I am famished, and we can hardly investigate on empty stomachs.
*hesitant* It’s a…well, it’s a date rape drug.
I’ll have to treat this before it becomes infected, I have some medical equipment in my room, come with me and I’ll get you patched up.
finishing up an autopsy*Well it would have been easier I had been able to examine her earlier, but she’s still displaying some symptoms, For starters her eyes have been tinged with yellow, her blood is very dark, and judging from the way her limbs are twisted and the bedcovers beneath her, I believe she went into spasms, when really being stabbed should have paralyzed her from shock.

An up and coming fashion designer. quiet and timid
*quiet* Excuse me…Please, I think I might know…*rasing voice slightly* Seriously now, I would appreciate it if you would all listen…*demanding attention* EVERYPONY SHUT THE BUCK UP! I am trying to present some evidence if you would all shut up and listen to me for five seconds!
*high pitched whisper* I was… just looking for medicine for Soarin, I’m not getting in the way of your investigation am I?
*cautious* Let’s wait until Braeburn makes up his mind, we don’t want to give her any false hope.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Krj5ycxdf6M
braeburn is an apple farmer. very energetic and enthusiastic, seeming very friendly. However, he can be very clueless about what is going on around him.
Braeburn has a slight southern accent
*dismissive*Ignoring that, I think that little lady had the right idea, we should be working together if we’re gonna get outta here!
What the heck is Ketamine?
Oh it’s nothin’ against her, she’s really pretty, and she’s been right friendly to me these past few days. I just don’t know if a relationship would work, especially in here.
a tinkerer. gizmo a stereotypical nerd and. speaks with a lisp
Do any of you really believe for a shecond that that Mashtermind is jusht going to let ush leave?
Great, how are we shupposhed to figure out who the culprit ish?
Doeshn’t thish prove Blueblood ish reshponshible? shurely with hish fancy upbringing, he’d have learnt to mix potions.”

an Arrogant Stage Magician and One-time evil dictator with a habit of speaking in third person. Trixie was lured to Arcane Manor with the promise of powerful anicent magic but winds up falling into the mastermind's trap and is now forced into a life of mutual killing.
*condecending* Trixie wishes to know the same thing, Trixie was summoned here under the pretense of obtaining ancient spell books. However it would appear ‘spell books’ meant drugging Trixie and locking her in a room with these imbeciles.
*smugly*You say that like Trixie is supposed to have heard of you,
*civil* Very well, Trixie was merely attempting to make it clear to…Lightning, how utterly foolish it is to just storm through a door that only opened at the command of a mysterious psychopath who wants us to kill each other, without at least checking for traps first.
a baker from canterlot may secretly be a supervillain:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5nAFecVXkU
has a generic new york accent
Yeah, if there’s anypony who can help us out of this mess, it’s Twilight Sparkle.
Let me, cooking is kind of my thing.
*emotional breakdown* I KNOW! DON’T YOU THINK I KNOW?! I kept telling myself, it was for the best, if one of us could get out, if I could get out, I could get help, I could save the others. I didn’t know everypony would have to die for me to go free!

Lightining is a former wonderbolt cadet but was kicked out of the academy for being too reckless, she percieves herself as the greatest daredevil ever. arrogant and selfish, Lightning isn't above risking the lives of others to prove she is the best which makes her a perfect player in the mastermind's twisted game.
Hey buddy! Who the hay do you think you are? Locking us in this room!
Oh for the love of…This is ridiculous! There’s no axe wielding maniac waiting for us out there, but if you’re all too baby then I’ll go first!
*Barking Laugh* Okay, now I know you’re taking the piss! If any of that was true, I would have just killed Soarin while he was out of it, no offence dude. I mean, why the heck would I attack Trenderhoof if Soarin was completely defenceless.”
Ponyville's #1 DJ. Vinyl is known to be wild, unpredictable, and sometimes borderline insane, not caring what anypony else thinks of her words and actions
Vinyl doesn't have an offical voice so do what ever you feel fits..
*mock horror* Well what kind of gentlestallion would you be if you made me do it on my own? But I guess, I can do it if you really won’t help out a mare in need…
As sweet as this whole scene is, you might want to loosen up there or the next trial is going to be to find out who suffocated Coco Pommel.
*furious and worried* Tell me you didn’t leave the room unlocked all night! *sigh* Look, I know yesterday was hard on you, it was for everypony. But we can’t just lie down and accept this pathetic excuse for a life. We need to fight back, and to do that we need everypony to work together.
her only line in the series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6JuJ8pgj2M
in this story she is revealed to work as an escort (make of that what you will.
*playful giggle*Yeah, a girl’s gotta pay the rent somehow.
He can’t read?!*raucous laughter*
You have to! If you don’t, he’ll just kill you too. Don’t make the same mistake I did, don’t give up! You can still get out of here alive.

Blueblood is a pampered noble. he is the perfect depiction of prince charmless. he looks down on anyone or anything that he sees as going against his high society life style. The more he sounds like a snobby, arrogant douchebag the better.
*outraged *Are you really so dim-witted to believe you can keep me locked up in here for a week let alone forever? As soon as my auntie sees that I am missing, the entire Royal Guard will be searching all of Equestria for me! They will storm this place and you will pay for your lack of respect!
*uninterested* Oh he was a good magician, no doubt about that, He just wasn’t much of a stallion, I mean look at his horn.
*about to be executed* What do you think you’re doing?! You tricked me! You told me I would win this! You told me they would never figure it out!
An example of twilight's voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Okg38oDyY3Q
Princess of frendship and avid bookworm. Twilight along side her best friend pinkie pie recieves an invitation to spend the night at a Place know as Arcane manor and is soon trapped with thirteen ponies. twilght is challenged by a being known as the mastermind into a game that will test the limits of her friendships. the game is simple: commit the perfect murder or remain a prisoner forever.
Well Trixie and I found some interesting spell books yesterday, I’m not sure what we can find, but given a little time we might be able to come up with something that could help us get out.
*shocked* What? Pinkie how could you even think that? Listen to me Pinkie Pie, no matter what happens, we will leave this place. We will go back to Ponyville and see our friends, you hear me?
*Dying thoughts* Flailing and writhing… the life being choked from my body…White sheets stained red… in blood… my blood...The sun’s setting… no surprise… I couldn’t last forever…The twilight couldn’t last forever…She couldn’t live forever…My friend…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h30MCKV-NbY
Perpetually perky party planner. Pinkie Pie always tries to put a smile on everyponies face even in darkest of hours. but will being trapped in a mansion with no signs of escape and an ultimatum of kill somepony or remain trapped forever finally put an end to her sunny disposition once and for all?
Oh Twilight, you’ve been reading that letter since we got off the cart, something’s clearly bothering you, and nothing spoils a good vacation more than a mopey friend.
Hey, how about this for an idea?There’s fifteen of us, so what if we go searching in groups of three?
*casual* Oh I’ve been planning out how I’m going to murder everypony in their sleep, Pffftttt,*hysterical laughter*Oh the looks on your faces! Priceless!
*sick of Blueblood's shit!* Look buddy, Maybe I should be flattered you think I’m some criminal genius, but I’ll be honest, I’m not that smart! I dropped out of school for Celestia’s sake! Flying is all I’m good at! Even if I wanted to kill one of you, I wouldn’t know the first thing about how to go about it. Not that I would, the Wonderbolts are more than just a team of performers and athletes, we’re also one of Equestria’s most elite tactical units, our creed is the protection of all Celestia’s citizens. I joined them because I believe in that creed, so you can accuse me all you want but the simple truth is I would rather die than kill another pony!
Drugs?! Somepony drugged me!
Hey, What are you guys looking forward to most about getting out of here? Not seeing friends or family, that’s obvious. I mean little things; personally I can’t wait to see the sun again.

A travel writer with a knack for starting all sorts of new trends across Equestria. Famous for his ability to take the mundane, the simple, the unappreciated, and make it relatable. Kind of a hipster
But yes, in answer to your question, I believe that while the Mastermind will try to stop us, we can overcome them if we put our heads together. Especially, if I might add, with the help of an Alicorn Princess.
That’s Orchid the Omnipotent, So named for his knowledge in all fields of magic, and not just the one associated with his cutie mark, which was plant magic, hence the space dedicated to gardens outside.
*seething with rage* Are you implying there’s something wrong with stallions who have short horns?
