As they all turned to look at the pony who fired the rocket another one gets fired right at them but mid way to the group a zap of magic blew it out of the sky coming from Starberry and she glares at the pony who fired it...and then saw his almost full body armor,bulking metal and platting from his neck down with large blue wings sticking out of each side and a dark hood over his head,covering his entire face but what she noticed most was that on his sides were two different,giant weapons,a Gatling gun on one side and a rocket launcher on the other,and just above the Gatling gun is a automatic metal apple launcher,now she was just glad he didn't fire all of them at once or she could never shoot them all down.

"Hmm,nice shot." The pony says as he is about to fire another rocket.

"Thanks." Starberry interrupts his reloading by zapping the weapon and nearly hitting the rocket as it reloads. "Now if ya'll want to keep yer limbs i suggest you hold her fire or the next round is blowin up that rocket...while its on yer side."

Jerome chuckles as he starts thinking about what it would look like."Ohhhh i would pay to see that."

"Not a chance,last pony who threatened me ended up with his head on a-." A loud snapping sound comes from star's head as in a mere two seconds the pony finds himself attempting to push star dust off before he eats his eyes. "HOLY SHIT WHATS WRONG WITH HIM?!?!?!"

James runs up behind him and pulls him off before hitting him in the face."WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!?!?!"

Star dust lets out a pained groan. "Sorry whenever i hear 'the last pony who threatened me' it reminds me of this bitch in my stable...i once tore his eyes out...and i would do it again if i could."

While star dust was telling his story the hooded pony stands up and starts warming up his Gatling gun only to find himself starring at a array of weapons all aimed at his face. "Shit..."

"Why are you trying to kills us?" Jerome gets ready to toss his zipper bomb at him,specifically aiming for inside his hood.

The pony sighs and Star dust notices something on his hoof...a pip-buck. "It was a assassination contract OK? im a assassin...i may not be the stealthiest but i am damn deadly."

"...You have a pip buck." Star can't tear his eyes away from the pip buck.

"Hmm? yea so? im from a stable." The pony crosses his legs.

"...Whats your name?" Star dust gets up,still starring at the pip buck.

"...Bass lightning...and normally i don't talk with soon-to-be piles of blood."

"And i don't often talk with ducks in a targeting range but im still talking to you." Star dust smirks and Bass lighting does not move a muscle.

"Sooo uhhh ya'll gonna start tryin to kill each other or are we gonna keep moving?" Starberry steps between the two.

"...Hes coming with us BUT i want James watching him at all times."

James does a little solute. "No problem captain." James and star chuckle a bit as Bass lightning grumbles as James puts a sawed off to his head and makes him fallow star dust and starberry as they continue down the path with Jerome right behind James,looking bored.

As they all keep trotting and looking around star dust keeps looking at his pip buck making everypony give each other glances until starberry finally spoke up.

"Uhhh star,not to question yer leadership-."

"Im not the leader,just the pony who walks ahead of everypony."

"Er,right,but where exactly are we going?" Instead of stopping and thinking like starberry expected star to do he just blurts out the name of the place hes planning to go.

"Its a place called 'flank' we are going their,and we are going to stir some trouble."

"Flank? i remember going their once,lot of nice mares their." Bass says while thinking about his favorite mare he met their and chuckles.

"Hey maybe we can try listening to the radio as we go?" Jerome suggests,getting tired of hearing nothing interesting.

"Alright,alright fine." Star dust turns on the radio on his pip buck on the first station on it and sweet music plays through the speakers and Jerome almost celebrates the fact that their is finally good music playing.

After a few minutes of hearing a strangely sweet voice of a old world singer sing the music slowly goes to a stop as a DJ's voice starts going through. "Hello everypony its DJ-pon-3 here and i have some news for you today,the one that im most excited about is that theirs some new stable ponies out,or A stable pony...because the other one is a zebra,thought ponies were the only ones in stables? you thought wrong,and the best part is that they seem to be fallowing the footsteps of the stable ponies before them,what are all stable ponies coming out to try and save the wastes? hehe not that im complaining,i would like to give thanks to these two." As the rest of the news just goes through their ears,Jerome and star dust look at each other in a little shock.

"H-...He was talking about us?"

"Yea i guess so,but whats pissing me off is that he says its JUST us,we have a group and we DID fuck up...or...i did at least." Star dust looks down as he remembers the little filly and the ponies he slaughtered.

"Yea...i want to meet this pony,if he already knows about us then he may know more about the wastes and what we can do."

"DJ-pon-3 is in tempony tower..." Everypony stops and looks at James.

"And you know this how?" Star dust cocks a eyebrow.

"...Hehehehe...as my old friend says,'spoilers'."

"Ya'll such a tease James." Starberry glares at him. "Why did ya even mention em if you aint gonna tell us anythin?"

"Because i want to."

"Will you two idiots stop arguing and start trotting?" Bass lightning says through gritted teeth.

Just as Bass lightning finishes what he was saying a red dot appears on his shoulder and a bullet pings off his armor as the sound of a pony springing rings through star dust's ears and he pulls out royal glory and as he turns...he goes eye to eye with a pair of green eyes glowing through a gas mask as the pony rapidly puts the sniper point blank at star's head,only to get the side of his armor shattered from a powerful buck from starerry and then his neck cracked when James slams him into a rock,making the sniper fire into the air.

"NOT SO FAST!!!" James snarls at the pony.

"SHIT,GAAAAHHH THAT HURT!!!!!" The pony clutches his neck and side,groaning in pain. "P-pleas listen,i mistook you for someony else,i didn't realize it until aiming."

"Thats no excuse." Bass lightning says in a dark,grim tone.

Star dust sighs. "Alright fine we'll help you."

"T-thank y-." Before the pony could even thank star...Bass just slams the ponies head into the rock,splattering it into pieces,making star dust's jaw drop a bit as everypony else backs away.

"...W-why would you do that?" Star's eye twitches.

"Because he attacked us,it does not matter why,he has to die,if he doesn't mean to now,he will later." Bass wipes the blood off and seconds later hears the sound of a gun cocking and as he turns hes looking into the barrel of royal glory...and he can even see the bullet ready to be sent into his eye. "...Star...put the gun down."

"You...murdered him...because of a misunderstanding?...then i guess THIS is a misunderstanding too then." As Star's pupils seem to shrink into insane levels...he pulls the trigger...bang.
