Chapter 4 Modern Meets Magic Pt. 2

Previously on Retirement in Equestria…
We had Twilight Sparkle use a taser.
Then the group took a photo together.
Then Golden Gears shows up.
Things are gonna get interesting really fast…

And now… Modern meets Magic, PART 2!!!!!

As I said in Part 1, the group of ponies and Thomas are on a hayride and Golden Gears heard a noise outside and went to investigate. Proceed.



Golden snuck out of the garage and around the corner and saw a pony that looked like Derpy Hooves but with a sweatshirt, different mane style and color, and was a darker shade of grey. Above her, a portal was floating then suddenly, it vanished. Golden snuck back into the garage and found a strange-looking box with 2 metal points on it, “This might help a bit..” he muttered to himself as he picked up the taser and turned it on. “HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” a voice yelled from behind causing Golden to lose grip on the taser and it ended up hitting his chest, points first, shocking him and he was out cold.

“Well, that went in a very different direction…” the Alt. Derpy said then she sat down and leaned back against the glossy black truck and fell asleep.

meanwhile.

“On your left is a portable toilet. On your right is my homemade shooting range, which I allow anypony to use if they want to practice their skills.” Thomas said while holding the truck straight and maintaining its speed. At that point, a pegasus with a dark shade of mint green fur and a mane/tail style of Rarity but was white with blue stripes, was flying overhead then she softly descended and landed gracefully on the rear of the farm trailer, she then felt it bounce as it made a turn. “Ok. Hi, and why is the wagon moving without a pony in front?” She then heard a sound that was like a beast then she looked up at the thing in front and made eye contact with the human driving, “YAAAAH!” she screamed as an amulet on her chest helped create a crosswind that the truck could not handle and the fact Thomas floored it, out of instinct, and the position of the steering, speed of 40 MPH, and the strong wind, the truck slammed into a tree head-on, not injuring anypony, but left all of them shaken up pretty good.

“Well, this sucks.” Thomas said as he got out to see how far the push bar went into the tree. “Well shit. I'm gonna need a nice amount of help to get the truck out of the spot it’s in, the push bar is in the tree.” After about 5 minutes of convincing the pegasus known as Spring breeze to help get the ride backed out of the tree and positioned towards the house on the other end of the property. After 5 minutes of weaving around the property, the group rolled on the driveway and Thomas put the truck in park, not before noticing 2 figures in the garage, one on the ground near a storage rack and the other one leaning against the Raptor.

Lucky on the other hoof, found the taser and picked it up, then she got an idea. “Hehehehehe." She quietly laughed. She then charged up her magic then amped up that magic with the taser. Then she aimed 2 lightning bolts at Thomas and Ebony. She then fired both bolts knocking them out cold and sending Spring scrambling under the Subaru that was in the detached garage. After waking up, Thomas gets a look on his face and to his old friends, it meant 2 short words, Nerf Fight. After herding (get it?) everypony into the basement and putting the 2 sleeping ponies into a bed in the upstairs back bedroom, he pulled out 3 tubs of Nerf guns of different types and darts. Lots and lots of darts, "Time for a little war." He said with little mercy in his voice.
About 5 minutes in, it was total chaos, ponies either ducking behind cover, sprinting around and spamming darts, or sitting there trying to figure out what end to point the dart guns. After 3 hours of it, everypony went back to their respective homes. Except for Spring Breeze, she was way too scared, so Thomas put her in his room, went into the living room, turned on the 11 PM news, set the tv to turn off in an hour, lied on the couch, and fell asleep.
