//------------------------------// // And The Accident They Brought - MK - Scorpion Chapter 2(BGR) // Story: Gamers on Equis: GAME RESET // by Opius Malikai //------------------------------// My eyes snapped open taking in the light. Redness filled my vision and my ears were assaulted with noise. I reached my hands up to my eyes feeling a liquid cover them. As I felt I realized soon what this liquid was, blood. I wiped the blood away from my mind and stood up. I was in a huge chamber, fire scorched this place and screams filled the air. As I took in the chamber I noticed the walls for the first time. They were beating. Similar to a heart, almost. Except it seemed closer to being that of a drumbeat. THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP Looking around it wasn't to hard to spot the creatures nearby, they looked similar to that one girl I saw...but far less horrific. The monsters had blood red eyes, and for that matter had blood dripping from their eyes and mouth. Some of them were showing off their teeth which looked like they could cut through steel with how sharp they were. However unlike the girl whatever these were didn't have the decency to put on clothes. In my thinking one of the creatures noticed me and didn't waste time charging at me. Raising it's...claws, into the air. The mosters had claws that looked like Death's scythe. Before it could get to slash me with it's claw I cut it off quickly with a punch that stopped it dead in it's tracks, literally dead in it's tracks. All the other creatures quickly noticed this and seemed to cower before me all except one creature, no, one man. As the man got closer I could start to make out how big he was, but before I could fully see this man my vision was overtaken with white. I awoke to the sun hitting my face, as I attempted to cover my eyes my memory of what happened the other day returned to me. Standing up I decided that it would be best to head into town, hopefully the locals wouldn't fear me too much. Although a bit of fear could give me an edge. I smiled and exited the destructed barn that I had slept in. It didn't take much locating to discover which way the town was as there was a sign that pointed the way to town. The town was called Ponyville. Well the only local I've seen is a horse girl, so of course it would be horse related. Although the name struck me as familiar. But I pushed that thought aside. Soon I was at the edge of town, and it sure seemed busy. All the locals were out and a few of them even flew over me. Yeah, flew. Some of these horses had wings. I marched into town feeling quite upbeat. The weather was thankfully nice and the locals even seemed cheery. Until they looked at me, then many of them seemed to start shaking. Although I was kind of scary I didn't expect a reaction quite like this. Many of them just stared at me and started to back away. It looked like parts of the town had recently been destroyed for some reason. With noticeable burn marks on the ground. After just a little more walking I reached town square and a noticeable crowd of ponies had gathered around. They seemed almost angry and I tensed up ready to fight if I had to. I walked up to the fruit dealer, even she seemed slightly scared/angry. I assumed it was a she based on her posture and, well other natural things. She had long green hair and yellow fur. Her eyes were a bright green and she was wearing an outfit you might see on someone at a farmers market. Fitting I guess. I noticed that many of the locals here were very colorful, in all different shades and colors. As I looked back at the vendor and she had a look that told me she didn't want me here. I decided to deal with the situation delicately. "Why is everyone so god damn scared of me?" She looked at me as though the answer was pretty obvious before sighing and saying, "Well we did just recently get attacked, and with all these new outsiders coming ponies are starting to want all these new ponies to get out of here or be forced to leave. In fact if I were you I would get some help from the guard station set up in Ponyville." That got my attention, the forcing me to leave part. They think that they can force me to leave. I couldn't help myself I started to laugh. Not just a small laugh this was a full laugh. For some reason this show of force seemed so, hilarious that I couldn't help but laugh. The woman looked at me strangely, "What's so funny?" "I'm not the one who needs help, but if any of you ponies think for a second that they can attack me, they are the ones who will be needing help." I grinned even though she wouldn't see it I think she got the point. Her look turned from annoyed to scared faster than you could blink. I decided that while I was here I might as well make use of it, i picked up an apple and decided to ask her one more thing, "Which way is it to that guard station?" As I walked I noticed the ponies gathering, ready to fight me by the looks of it. It seemed like a proper mob. It was only ten minutes later when one of them decided to come up to me. He wasn't anything tough looking, but his eyes gave me an aggressive glare. The man had brown hair and tannish fur. He looked at me up and down before speaking, "If you know what's good for you, you'll leave this town right now." "I don't see anyone who could make me." That seemed to set him over the edge. His face seemed to scrunch up with even more anger and he charged at me. So this is what you're looking for buddy. A fight. I knew this would be all too easy so I decided to let him get a free hit on me. He rammed into me setting me backwards. I quickly recovered and sent him flying with an uppercut. He hit the street with a thud and I saw many of the ponies that had looked ready to fight were now backing off. That's right, back off cowards. I kept walking forward as though nothing had even happened. A few of the horses in the crowd still thought they had a chance and charged at me. I sidestepped the first one that came near and punched another horse in the stomach. For horses these guy were pretty weak. I kept doing these same motions to all the others that came near. Suddenly one of them kicked my back and actually got a good hit on me. I turned around to find a horse that actually seemed taller than me. This one towered over all the rest and they seemed to back up, as if they knew that this was his turn. I might have actually found someone that can fight. This horse had yellow-orangeish hair, and red fur. He wore clothes that you would see a farmer wear and definitely had the muscles that would come from such a job. This guy looked like he worked inn his sleep. Alright then big guy, show me what you got. He looked at me for a second before charging at me. I side stepped this guy and planned on punching him in the gut but before I could he extended his fist and punched me in the face. I stumbled back and it clicked in my head what he had done. I got up angrily. I charged at him fists at the ready he just as easily knocked me out of the way, a smirk on his face this time. Standing up I prepared to let him come at me before striking. Then I realized instead of waiting for him what I could do. The smirk on my face is unseen because of my mask which makes what I'm about to do all the better. I pull my hand back before sending it forward. A kunai at the edge of a chain makes its way to my opponent. I see the kunai enter his chest and I pull hard enough to make him come flying towards me. "GET OVER HERE!" I yell as he comes closer. I let go of the kunai and chain and as he is just about to near me I backflip sending him flaming into a building. The building rumbled from the loss of structure but still remained upright. I laughed, knowing that he wouldn't be getting out of there any time soon. As I turn around I hear some crumbling from behind me. I quickly turn back around only to be met with a fist in my face. Somehow the red guy had managed to get up from such a devastating hit. As he came over to me I tried to get up but found that I was trapped under a trash can that had gotten on top of me. While I struggled to get the strangely massive trash can off of me a young girl walked up to the red horse. She was young, had red hair and yellow fur. She wore a pretty simple shirt with a skirt. I caught just the end of what she said as I got up. "-you can't just attack someone." It seemed that they were in some way related. "You know what Applebloom." the red horse said, "I think I'm going to leave this fight. It's pretty much done anyways." He looked over at the arrived guard of the city. I started to get angry at him. You can't just turn your back on a fight and walk away! His actions were horrible and so I knew that if he would try to find a way to end the fight than I would too. I got up and ran up behind him. "Nobody walks away from me. You will pay for this, with your LIFE!" I unsheathed my sword and stabbed him through the stomach. He fell to his knees and I pulled the sword out of him. He little girl looked to be in shock. The guard were quick to respond and charged at me with swords of their own. I heard a scream that likely came from the girl. Suddenly the guards, the girl and the man were all pulled away by a purple glow. From the sky came a Purple furred horse girl. She had dark purple hair, wings and a horn that was glowing. Her eyes were purple and she was wearing an outfit that showed that she was the ruler, or at least she looked the part. Suddenly a man that had been floating as well dropped to the ground. Not a horse man, an actual man. He was wearing a white gi with a red belt. He had brown hair and was near my height. He looked exactly like Ryu from Street Fighter. They both stared at me intensely before finally Ryu spoke, "So you thought you were the only fighter in this town. That's the last mistake you're making." Ryu and the Princess charged at me, as sheathed my main sword I pulled out my my two Ninjato and prepared myself. This is going to be a good fight.
