Pride and Positivity ends today

Speedrun, bitchessss!

Merry sat on one of the wagons, watching the scenery go by. It was nerve racking. She didn’t know what to expect. What if they immediately opened fire? What would they do if they’d defeated the Marching Colors? Would she die?

These thoughts echoed around her mind, like noise in a cave. Merry laid against a hay bale.

After a few hours, they rode up towards the front gates. The city streets were lit up by the hanging lamps. The citizens looked at the convoy, confused. They weren’t sure how to react or what to do. The convoy rode past, heading towards the castle. However, it wasn’t long until they heard a boom, followed by a loud crash and the leading wagon flying off the road.

The leading wagons began yelling ‘cannon!’ as another explosion rang out. The cannonball ripped through another wagon, sending the wagon and occupants flying off the road.

Merry grabbed her crossbow and tried to remain calm. Then, the bolts began flying. Automatic crossbows rained hail fire onto the wagons.

“Get down!” one of the ponies yelled.

Merry and some of the others ducked down. One colt looked terrified. Merry tried to reach for him, but a crossbow bolt got to him first.

Merry wasn’t sure what it was. Maybe it was the arrow hitting him. Maybe the blood splatter. Or maybe his scared but lifeless eyes. A dead pony’s eyes.

The wagon quickly came to an abrupt stop. The braking wasn’t clean, however. The wagon flipped onto its side, sending the occupants out. Merry felt her body ragdoll against the dirt path and land in on the soft grass. And for a while, she stayed like that. Just lying there. She was thankful to even survive the crash, let alone not break anything.

She’ll walk it off.

Okay, in all seriousness, I’m debating whether to actually kill her

I mean, she’s not really a standout character like Star Striker

And she’s not really the main character. There really isn’t a main character. She’s just witnessing an event take place. She can’t change anything that happens. I mean, she’s not a White character in an 80’s war film
