//------------------------------// // Sentry Buster's First Chase // Story: Applejack and the Remote Sentry Buster // by efug25g //------------------------------// After taking the Remote Sentry Buster for a couple of more test drives, Applejack started cackling like a maniac, while Derpy was used as a lab rat when being chased all over the castle by that robot. While on the sidelines, Twilight was snickering when seeing the Sentry Buster run all over the castle hallways through the ipad that was controlling it. The ipad displayed a small screen where the user could see everything through the Remote Sentry Buster's front camera. On the ipad's left edge, it shows 4 directional buttons pointing left, right, forward, and backwards. On the ipad's right edge, it shows a circular mini-radar that displays dots, indicating signs nearby. Just when Applejack is going crazy over controlling the Remote Sentry Buster at will, Twilight ordered her to stop and wait until nightfall, where Rainbow Dash will be caught off guard. As soon as nightfall appeared in Ponyville, Rainbow Dash was hanging out at a nearby pub with her fellow Wonderbolt members. After the rest of the Wonderbolts went back home, Rainbow took for a stroll down the town square. Without warning, Rainbow started hearing a strange beeping noise, creeping from behind her. Not wanting to think that there's something bad behind her, Rainbow started whistling with her eye looking upward into the clear, blue night sky. As she went to a nearby lamp post somewhere nearby the Gazebo, Rainbow heard thumping noises heading straight for her. "W-What was that noise?" Rainbow Dash muttered before getting her ego back on. "Hey, Applejack, are you out there? You're not scared of the dark are you?" Back at Twilight's Castle, Applejack was at the castle's map room with the controlling ipad in her hooves. Upon seeing Rainbow Dash through the Remote Sentry Buster's main camera, the farm pony mare started laughing her head off, while the rest of the Mane 4 watched from behind her. "This is it, Rainbow Dash." Applejack snickered in excitement. "Your days are numbered!!!" Back at the Town Square, the light-blue pegasus turned around to see what's behind her. Suddenly, Rainbow Dash's eyes widen with horror after seeing a tall two-legged robot appear next to a lamp post, with its light shinning upon it. Upon seeing the robot walking towards her position, making loud beeps and ticks, Rainbow Dash screamed. "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!" Rainbow shrieked in fear as she started to fly at full speed away from the robot. "What in Sweet Celestia is that thing???" "Target confirmed! Subject Rainbow Dash, locked on!!!" The Sentry Buster spoke in a robotic voice before it started running in full speed. "ENGAGE RAINBOW DASH!!" During the chase, Rainbow Dash went hiding underneath the school bell. Unfortunately, the Sentry Buster appeared from the shadow right next to her. Upon seeing it up close and person, Rainbow shrieked like a loud chicken before she took off again, with the Sentry Buster in hot pursuit. In her next hiding place, Rainbow hid near a storage area full of crates. But in just seconds, the Sentry Buster popped out from one of the crates a few feet away from the scared light-blue pegasus. After taking flight again, Rainbow went up to a nearby forest to hide. Then again, the Sentry Buster popped out from one of the trees and appeared right behind the light-blue pegasus, scaring the living vibes out of her. When Rainbow went inside the train station to take a breather, she turns around to see the Sentry Buster appear right behind her again, making loud beeping, ticking noises. In just an instant, the Sentry Buster chases the light-blue pegasus around the ticket booth a dozen times before she flew out the main entrance, like a bat out of hell. Similar events of Rainbow Dash getting chased by the Remote Sentry Buster started occurring from left and right, all over Ponyville. Realizing that there is no escape from the Sentry Buster, Rainbow Dash started going crazy, while screaming her head off. After hearing the loud noises from their houses, the rest of the ponies came out to see what was going on. As robot continued to chase Rainbow Dash all over Ponyville, Derpy makes her announcement through the P.A speakers at the town square. "ALERT!! A REMOTE SENTRY BUSTER HAS ENTERED THE AREA!!!" Derpy said in a high-pitched tone, while Applejack was controlling the robot with the ipad she had in her hooves. "EEEEEEYAAAAAHHHHH!!!!" Rainbow Dash screamed her head as she bursted through the sky while getting chased by the beeping Sentry Buster. "Why won't that bucket of bolts LEAVE ME ALONE??? I WANT MY MOMMY!!!!" As soon as she reached her home in Cloudsdale, Rainbow immediately slammed the door shut right behind her and barricaded every single door and window all over her house, so that the Sentry Buster will not follow her any further. Even though it was a success, the Sentry Buster keep showing up outside of the windows, freaking out the poor light-blue pegasus to death. After having a runaway experience with the Sentry Buster, Rainbow Dash started sweating like a pig and covered herself up in a huge blanket, while in her bedroom, not wanting the Sentry Buster to harass her any further. Meanwhile back at Twilight's Castle, Twilight told the Mane 4 on how to operate the remote Sentry Buster with a big ipad. Upon seeing the look on Rainbow Dash's face through the Sentry Buster's sights, the Mane 5 started laughing their heads off, along with Derpy who is sitting at a nearby crystal bench. The next thing they saw from Rainbow Dash was when her mane and tail started stretching out like a lighting bolt. "This is so fun." Pinkie cheered in a happy, squeaky voice. "Can we do it again, please? Pretty Pretty Pretty, please?" "Maybe next time, Pinkie Pie." Applejack said otherwise. "For now, let's get some rest. It's way past our bedtime." After every pony, except Twilight Sparkle, left Twilight's Castle, Applejack took the ipad with her. When the farm pony went back to Sweet Apple Acres, Applejack led the Remote Sentry Buster inside the barn before going to bed. As soon as Applejack closed her and went to sleep, she started laughing and snickering in silent as she made an evil smile. As for Rainbow Dash, she was not able to sleep at night. Instead, her eyes turned bloodshot red while the light-blue pegasus started hyperventilating after getting chased by the two-legged robot for over a chaotic 30 minutes tops. "I-I don't know what was going on here, but I-I hope I don't see t-that mechanical horror again next morning!!!" Rainbow Dash said as she started shivering while on top of her bed, covering herself up with her bed sheet.
