//------------------------------// // Fallout // Story: My Little Pony Destroyers are Magic. // by CommonDash //------------------------------// Taylor is just watching the body when the sound of flapping wings are heard. “Is that Triek! What happened to him he looks… dead?” Taylor turns around to see a Yellow Pegasus with a light red mane. His cutie mark is a pineapple on a history book. “Um why are you here?” Taylor asks “Well, you see I was flying near by when suddenly I couldn’t see anything like I was looking directly into the sun. Once I got my vision back I came to see what it was. Oh I’m Straight River. It’s nice to meet you.” Straight river says “Uh Huh, well this thing tried to steal my magic and well I guess my magic reacted violently.” Taylor says in half truth. “That’s interesting! I bet the researchers would love to find out what type of magic you’ve got! I mean you’re a flying earth pony that’s awesome!” Straight River says “In truth you should probably back up a bit… like a bit a bit. My magic is very volatile.” Taylor says The Geiger counter is reading medium levels which shouldn’t be a problem for her and hopefully nothing to bad as long as exposure time isn’t in days. She takes a few steps closer to the body and it shoots up dramatically… “Right find the safe spot and draw a circle… the magic is probably doing something to contain it.” Taylor says drawing a circle in the dirt around Triek’s body. ==================== “It’s been so long since we just had tea like this.” Celestia says “Usually cause something goes horribly wrong whenever we do.” Luna says “I find having tea like this rather nice and relaxing.” Twilight says “Last time he hath had tea… Discord came.” Luna says “… yes I could see how you would not want to have tea.” Twilight says “I remember that!” Celestia says laughing “What?” Twilight asks “Well you see Twilight we were in Baltimare just having tea after a meeting with the navy. When discord shows up and tells us we aren’t having a proper American tea party. That draconis snapped his fingers and turned the entire harbor into tea.” Celestia says giggling “Speaking of the Navy. I have heard of the new ship they are making.” Luna says “Your modern equestrian is improving sister.” Celestia says “I have my student to thank for that.” Luna says with a smile. The two other princesses just stop and stare at Luna. “Student? Who’s your student?” Celestia asks Suddenly there is a flash of green flames as a letter drops onto the table. Celestia doesn’t notice the letter though she’s looking off into the mountain range in the far distance. “There was just a second sun… it was there for a few seconds then gone.” Celestia says in awe. Twilight opens and reads the letter in a panic at that statement. “ Triek is in the Everfree and Taylor is missing.” Twilight reads “She hath dropped the sun on Triek.” Luna says Twilight’s teleport was quickly followed by Luna’s and Celestia’s. ================= Taylor is just watching the crater talking with Straight River when 3 distinct ponies appear. “You three probably wanna stand back his body is leaking poison.” Taylor says aloud “Is he dead?” Celestia asks shocked “I think so? I mean he tried to steal my magic them just sort of fell over convulsing.” Taylor says “Thou said his body was poisonous?” Luna asks “Yes, anything that gets within 5 feet of him for more than a few minutes every few years will die.” Taylor says trying to describe how radiation works. “Are you okay Taylor?” Twilight asks looking around at the destruction. The shadows burnt into the cliff face make her shiver slightly. Triek’s body suddenly groans as it tries to force itself right. Triek looks much like a ghoul from fallout. “Holy buck! A zombie! Kill it kill it with fire!” Taylor shouts in panic. Ghoul Triek rushes Taylor only for an electrical hum followed by a crack. To stop him dead in his tracks. Once again the body of Triek falls over dead, again this time a large majority of his head is missing. “That was brutal.” Straight River says “My little pony what are you doing out here?” Celestia asks just realizing there was a yellow Pegasus here the whole time. “Watching history in the making of course!” Straight River replies with excitement. “What?” Twilight asks shocked by the Pegasus’ happiness. “Triek finally faced justice! Do you know how many Pegasi he killed? He stole the magic of all the Pegasi in cloudsdale a lot of us fell to our deaths! You Taylor your gonna be a hero! I need to find my friend Water Blast and I guarantee you will have a song written about you!” Straight river announces shooting into the clouds at speeds that were starting to form a Mach cone. “I didn’t know he killed that many.” Twilight says in horror. “I didn’t have the heart to tell you Twilight.” Celestia says “If I didn’t hide.” Twilight mutters “Mom! Don’t you dare start thinking like that.” Taylor says hugging Twilight. “So what shall we do with the body?” Luna asks “He needs to be buried in a box of lead. That would keep the poison from spreading.” Taylor says Celestia nods and takes the crying Twilight under her wing. “Are we going home?” Taylor asks “Yes you two should go home, Luna and I shall take care of the body.” Celestia says “What was that Pegasus’ name?” Luna asks “Straight River?” Taylor says “The reserve wonderbolt? Huh well Twilight I think you should take Taylor home and ask her for more information on her friendship report.” Celestia says “Okay princess Celestia.” Twilight says as she charges up her horn to teleport them out. With a light pop the two are gone. “Sister, thou should know Taylor is my student.” Luna says “I wanted to keep her hidden from the noble’s however I don’t think it’s possible anymore. You’ve done a good job so far Luna.” Celestia says “The body?” Luna asks “I’m sending it to the sun.” Celestia says matter of factly.
