Chapter 3 : Camping!

"Where am I even going?" I went back to my bike and started pushing it until I realized I didn't even know where I was going. Ah crap. the sun looks like it's about to set soon. Better camp somewhere. I started to walk towards the path that was visible to my eye and within a few minutes, I had reached a river.

"Well, this seems interesting," I said aloud. Maybe this would be a good spot to camp? Beside a river, where I can get water easily. Alright, it's decided then! I'll camp here.

I started to remove the items from my bag. My sweet little gun, which had a magazine currently in it. I looked into my bag and found 6 more magazines. good enough. I looked towards my bike which was parked against a tree. It had scratches and dents everywhere. My poor little thing! At least it still worked. I put my gun in my hostler and 2 of the magazines at each respective places. The rest of the magazines, I left them in the bag and zipped it up. Alright, next up is my sword. i unsheathed the beautiful weapon and looked as it's shiny blade reflected against my face.

"Alright, it's in working order!" I thought to myself as i sheathed the weapon back to it's rightful place.

I think it's time for me to take a nap. I laid down the cold muddy ground. I could feel ants crawling up my skin and shit. It was unnerving. Uhh, can't wait to get out of this hellhole...once I find out where I am. I cleared my thoughts and fall into the world of slumber

"Tia! Tia wake up!" Princess Luna burst into Princess Celestia's room. The sun monarch rubbed her eyes and looked towards her worried sister.

"What is it Lulu? Can't you see I'm sleeping here?" Celestia said as she gave a wide yawn.

"I have just sensed a magical disturbance! It came from The Everfree Forest! " Luna responded, her face full of nervousness. Celestia immediately jolted up, now fully aware of her surroundings.

"What! Have you traced whatever caused it?" Celestia asked her sister, who merely shook her head. This wasn't the first time they felt a magical disturbance. they felt one when Discord escaped too. Whatever, caused the magical disturbance had to be found straight away before it could cause any ruckus. The two sisters decided it would be better to discuss this in the morning. With heavy hearts, they went back to what they were doing.

The Everfree Forest was exceptionally quiet, except for a few crickets here and there. Unfortunately, that silence was broken by a creature who was currently yawning.

"Ahh, that was a good nights' sleep...not really...I'm pretty sure a bug crawled in my ear but whatever!" I exclaimed to no one in particular. Man it sucks being alone. Alright, so what's on the agenda today?

1. Get food
2.Get water
3.Find out where the fuck I am.

That seems like a good checklist. Food...hmm...maybe I could go hunting? Yeah! LE'GO!

I started to walk around the forest, looking for any prey. Maybe I could eat some berries? Nah, wouldn't want to risk my life in case they were poison. As I walk more and more, I spotted no animal.

"That's weird. It's unusually quiet..." I thought to myself. Okay so maybe this is kinda sketchy. I mean seriously, there shou-

I was caught off guard as a....dwarf? Wait, what? It wore a RedCap and tattered clothes. It had a long beard that would make Santa Clause jealous. It also had chains on his hands, wore chainmail boots and was carrying a scythe. It wore a devilish grin and started walking towards me with malice in his face. Oh fuck no. I ain't about to become the prey. I quickly unsheathed my sword and held a fighting stance.

"Let's go bitch!" I said. He then proceeded to lunge at me.

I sidestepped his pathetic attack and slashed his side but he took me by surprise by ducking underneath my sword and slashing me in the knee. "FUCK THAT HURT!" I shouted. Now I had two injured knees. He looked at me confused and then continued his attack. I had no choice but to dodge his attacks with an injured knee. It was hard but I managed to parry his attack and thrust my sword towards his stomach. I managed to stab him but he did not falter. He swung his giant weapon towards my head, seizing the opportunity to attack me as my sword was stuck in his chest. I had to abandon my sword and roll away before the scythe chopped off my head.

The dwarf pulled out my sword out of his stomach and started attacking me with both weapons. The blood that was gushing out of his stomach did not faze him in any way. I had to dodge and weave his relentless attacks before I realized that I still had my gun with me. My 'Century' as I called it, was still in it's holster. i pulled it out of my hostler and aimed it straight on the dwarf. It seemed confused by my actions. I didn't waste this chance. I clicked off the safety, pulled back the barrel and maintained my breath. I clicked the trigger.

click....BOOM!

The bullet flew out of my gun and lodged itself into the creature's skull. It immediately jerked backwards and fell down, looking at the sky while blood gushed out of it's skull. I walked towards it's dead body and muttered out, "That's why you don't mess with me, bitch!" Feeling satisfied by my work, I grabbed my sword back and sheathed it. I stared at the creature's eyes. I looked beside the body and found his weapon, the scythe.

"This is so fucking weird. I get thrown into this weird forest, I fought wood wolves and now I'm fighting a dwarf that had a weapon....What. The. Fuck" I said to myself. The days just seem to get weirder. That scythe does seem nice though...meh, fuck it. Hope you don't mind me taking your weapon.

The blade of the scythe was gleaming off my reflection. I found out that I can actually fold the scythe in half. Great! I continued my journey of finding food while carrying a new weapon. What should I call it? The 'DeathBringer'! Nah, too lame...hmm...I got it! I'm gonna call you, 'Reaper'....yup! Reaper...you know...cause...Grim Reaper and stuff...Oh c'mon that was good!

I shifted my focus back to my mission. As I continued on this path, that leads to...I don't where this leads to! I pressed on, even though both my knees were injured, determined to find out where this path would take me. After a couple of minutes, I finally saw a clearing. I quickened my pace and made it out into the clearing. What I saw...was amazing! There is a fucking huge castle! It looked...familiar! Damnit...I swear I saw this castle before! It looked destroyed and ruined. It looked pretty abandoned. Let's check it out.

As I was about to cross the bridge that led to the castle, I heard voices. In instinct, I jumped back and hid in a bush.

"C'mon Twilight! There's nothing here! We have already scouted the whole forest! I'm pretty sure the princess's were worried about nothing...

"Well, I just want to be sure Rainbow. The last place we haven't check is the Castle Of The Two Sisters. After that, we can go home if we don't find anything.

"Finally darling. I would have to wash my mane again after this. Hmph!"

"Oh come on Rarity! It isn't that bad! You just have to turn that frown upside down! Right Applejack?"

"Hm? Oh yeah yeah. Ah just hope we don't find anythin' there."

"Me too...I hope there are no...monsters there..."

"Wait a minute....that sounds like....!"
