Resistance: Equestria

by Evowizard25


Chapter 6

The hospital ward was silent. Deathly silent. Nurse Redheart had never seen the place more calm then today. This is saying something, since she worked in the most accident prone town in all of Equestria. Not that she hated working there. Just the opposite in fact. She loved Ponyville. It was so calm and peaceful, for the most part. The town certainly did give her new ways to heal ponies, which was her job after all.
But certain ponies were rather…how should she put it…aggravating. Aggravating was putting it mildly. Now, she didn’t hate these ponies, or specifically one pink mare, but she found her job extremely difficult when she had to deal with them. ‘I can’t believe she uses so much confetti and deserts…Oh, that just complicates things.’ She thought. Sometimes, a patient would get too high on the sweets and cause some damage. ‘Pinkie Pie namely.’ It wasn’t much and no one got hurt. ‘Most of the time.’ But still, Redheart did not like being around the local party mare.
But of course, she had no need to worry about the pink menace. Instead, she was looking for her assistant, Nurse Tenderheart. She knew where she was, so it wouldn’t take long. She herself visited that area often.
“…And they lived happily ever after.” She heard Tenderheart finish off another one of the children’s stories. “The end.”
Redheart walked into the nursery room, to find all the toddlers asleep. They looked so peaceful and calm. ‘If only they were always like that.’ Tenderheart was tucking in a small Pegasus colt. “So, I see you’ve got them to lie still for a moment. I’m impressed.”
Tenderheart smiled. “Well, how could they resist a good, old, nap time story?”
“I thought they’d fight to the last foal before they let anything like this happen.”
Tenderheart chuckled slightly, casting a fleeting glance to the colt. The small colts and fillies had been dropped here, since Cheerilee couldn’t look after them. The mare had a day-care set up on the weekends, but this week, she had a little too much on her hooves, with exams and all. Redheart wondered how the mare could manage, with so little free time. ‘She must really love these little ponies.’ The little colt let out a yawn, before fiddling around in his sheets. The two nurses had to fight the urge to ‘awww’.
“So,” Tenderheart asked. “Where’s Dr. Muffin Top? I haven’t seen him all day. He’s usually here with the foals.”
“Oh,” Nurse Redheart shook a hoof in the air. “He just went out for a little respite. He was up all last night, engrossed in a new book on foals.”
Tenderheart sighed. “So, it’s just you and me?”
“As always.” Redheart smiled, trying to comfort her friend.
“You’d think they’d hire a few more nurses and Doctors.” Tenderheart complained. “I mean, look at this place, this is way too big for just a couple of nurses and a foal doctor.”
“We manage.” Redheart set a hoof on her shoulder. Tenderheart just raised an eyebrow. “Besides,” She turned her friend’s head to look at the sleeping colt. “He’s happy, isn’t he?”
Tenderheart couldn’t help but smile at the child. The little moment was interrupted when they heard the soft ring of a bell. Redheart turned around. “I’ll get it.” She walked through the hallway, making sure to be quiet as she left. Finally, she went to the front door and opened it. In front of her, was a rather tired, blue stallion. “Umm, can I help you?”
“Yes…this guy over here knocked himself out cold.” The stallion said, trying to catch his breath. “So, me and a few others dragged him over to the hospital.”
“Was it that serious?” Nurse Redheart tilted her head to the side. “You could have simply taken him home. A little rest and a couple pain tablets and he’d be as right as rain.”
The stallion looked at her for a moment. “Right, you weren’t in town when it happened.”
“When it happened?” Redheart raised an eyebrow. “Was Pinkie Pie involved?”
The stallion shook his head. “No, but her cousin was.” He scratched his chin. “Was she her cousin?” He asked himself. He then turned his head around. “Hey, was that white Pegasus Pinkie’s cousin.” There were a few huffy ‘yeses’ in reply.
Nurse Redheart looked over his shoulder to spy three other exhausted stallions. At their feet was a massive, black Earth Pony. Her eyes widened as she took him all in. He was the biggest pony she had ever seen. Even larger then Macintosh. ‘My word, what has that pony been eating?’ “What happened?”
“Well, one thing led to another and he smashed right into the side of a building.” The stallion she was originally talking to said.
Redheart walked over to the stallion. She trotted around him once. The white nurse stopped when she spied his cutie mark. ‘How peculiar.’ She thought, as she made out what appeared to be a hoof smashing some sort of simian’s skull. She made a mental note to ask him what it meant. “He seems fine. No outward bruising, but let’s take him in, just to be sure.” The stallions groaned, but complied, as they once again tried to heave the giant Earth pony.

Back in town, the Advanced Hybrid stood outside the Sugar Cube Corner. He tapped his hoof impatiently, unbeknownst to himself. The two creatures that he had ordered to take him to this so called ‘hospital’ were busy moving items all around their living space. “Why are you not doing what I ordered you to do?” He growled at them.
“Ordered?” Pinkie Pie said, balancing a tray of cupcakes on her head. The two sniper pegasi stared at it, with mouths agape. “You didn’t order me to do anything.”
“I think he means about us taking him to the hospital.” Surprise said, carrying a large bag of flour.
Pinkie Pie giggled. “Oh, yeah.” She then turned to look at him. “Sorry, we’re kind of busy. What with so many new ponies in town, we have to make this party grand.”
The Advanced Hybrid fought the urge to seriously maim the two mares. ‘How dare they just ignore my request like that. Don’t they know who I am? If it wasn’t for that stupid human, I’d have killed them for such disobedience.’ “I do not care about this ‘party’. I just want you to take me to my lesser pawn.”
Pinkie Pie stopped and looked at him. She raised an eyebrow. “Lesser pawn?” She said, not sure that she heard him right. “That’s not a very nice thing to say about your friend.”
“Friend?” The Advanced Hybrid tilted his head in confusion. ‘What is this ‘friend’ thing she’s talking?’
“Yeah,” Pinkie Pie smiled. “He kind of look like you guys and you know him, so you must be friends.”
“What is a ‘friend’?” One of the other Chimera Earth ponies asked.
The Advanced Hybrid quickly turned to that individual and glared at him. “Only speak when spoken too.” He growled. All of Chimera ponies shrunk back in fear.
Pinkie Pie gasped. “You don’t know what a friend is?” The Chimera ponies shook their heads. Her gaze became very stern. “Well, I’m going to change that.” She jumped up in front of the sniper duo and held up a hoof. “Hi, I’m Pinkie Pie and I want to be your first friend.”
The duo looked at her hoof for a moment, then to each other. Finally, they turned their attention to Pinkie. They gulped, casting a fearful glance towards the Advanced Unicorn. One of them extended his hoof and grasped onto hers. Pinkie’s smile grew even brighter when he did. After a gentle shake, she let go. “Was that it?” The Chimera Pegasus said.
“Yep.” Pinkie said. “We’re friends now.”
The other Chimera, who could be mistaken for a twin of the first, bumped the other one aside. “Hey, I want to be your friend too.”
The first Pegasus growled. “No. She’s my friend.”
“Hey, she isn’t one of your kills, you know.”
“Oh, no.” The first one raised an eyebrow. “Then why are you trying to take her away from me? You did the same thing when we were back in our old bodies.” The two pressed their foreheads against one another, snarling.
Pinkie got in between them. “Hey,” She said. “You two don’t have to fight over me. You can both be my friends.”
“Really?” They both asked.
“Sure,” Pinkie said. “There’s no such thing as enough friends.” The two pegasi smiled.
“But what is a friend?” The Advanced Hybrid asked, advancing on them. ‘I will not have my pawns growing soft on me.’ He thought, remarking on the scene that had just unfolded before him.
“Oh, a friend is somepony who you hang out with, and do fun things together.” Pinkie explained. “They help you out when you’re in need and cheer you up when you feel sad.”
The Advanced Hybrid scoffed. “Sounds like something a fool would do.”
The pegasi duo looked at each. “Did he just call us fools?”
“I think he did.”
“Wouldn’t be the first time.”
What Pinkie did next, shocked them all. She bounced right in front of him and poked him in the chest, with a little glare of her own. “That’s not a very nice thing to say to your friends. Apologize.”
The Advanced Hybrid stood there in shock. Never, in his whole life, had he been told to apologize. And the courage that she possessed, far exceeded any human he had encountered. Finally, he awoke from his little daze. ‘How dare she? Only the song can tell what I can or cannot do.’ He wacked her hoof off him and snarled. Pinkie Pie didn’t back down.
Surprise stopped what she was doing the moment he swiped her Pinkie’s hoof away. She flew in between them, spreading out her wings in an attempt to look threatening. “Stop it. Both of you.”
The white Pegasus had done that so quickly, that the Advanced Hybrid had little time to register it. When he did, it filled him with pure rage. ‘Stop telling me what to do.’ And without a second thought, he grabbed hold of one of Surprise’s wings in his mouth and threw her to the ground. She gave out a startled cry as he did so.
Meanwhile, Gregory was cowering in the corner, next to an unconscious Twilight, watching the scene unfold. “Come on.” He shook her. “Wake up. Scream. Do something.”
The purple unicorn didn’t stir, as The Advanced Hybrid stood over Surprise with a deathly glare. “No one tells me what to do.”
“You can’t do that.” Pinkie Pie said. The moment she had, the unicorn swung his hoof right across her face, knocking her down.
“I am your superior.” He growled. “You do not speak to me like that.”
“John said that…” Gregory started, finding a little courage within himself.
“To the eternal abyss with John’s orders.” The Advanced Hybrid snarled, driving away Gregory’s newfound courage. “I will not stand these ponies ordering me around. I am the superior creature here. Me and I shall not allow them to make lesser of myself.”
Gregroy shrunk back, cowering next to Twilight. “Well, she just wanted to throw a party.”
“I do not know what a party is,” The Chimera unicorn started. “But I will not have any of it.”
“But,” Pinkie whimpered, tears welling up in her eyes, both of pain and sadness. “Parties make everypony happy.”
“I don’t want to be happy, you inferior creature.” The Advanced Hybrid hovered over her. “I just want to get back to my old body. Once that human does so, I shall take great pleasure in killing him and his companions.” He smiled wickedly. Images of their deaths playing in his mind. ‘Oh, I can’t wait.’ Gregory was shaking in fear, just by looking at the once- Chimera. “You on the other hand, are to be dealt with now.”
Just then, the sniper pegasi duo jumped in front of Pinkie. The Chimera unicorn took a couple of steps back in shock. They were glaring at him fiercely. Their bodies were prone and ready to pounce. The Advanced Hybrid knew that look. They were ready to kill. “What is the meaning of this?”
“We won’t let you kill her.” One of them said.
“Yeah, we won’t.” The other nodded.
“Why not?” The Advanced Hybrid asked. ‘Wait! These must be those two bumbling snipers from back in my world. I should have recognized them earlier.’ “If this is about that little contest of yours, then be my guest.”
“No,” The Chimera pegasi said. “It’s not about that.”
“Then, what is this about?” The Advanced Hybrid said, snorting in agitation. ‘These two are interrupting my kill.’ His stomach grumbled, reminding him of his hunger.
“We won’t let you hurt our friend.” They said in unison.
The unicorn’s eyes widened. Never before had any of his pawns stood up to him like this or at all. “What?” He growled.
“We said, we won’t let you hurt our friend.” They said.
“Friend?” The Advanced Hybrid said. “We don’t have these ‘friends’.” The word still felt so foreign to his lips.
“Yes we do.” They said, looking back at Pinkie Pie.
“This is treachery.”
“No, it is not.” One of them said, turning his attention back to him. “She was nice to us, unlike you.”
“Yeah, she even gave us cupcakes.” The other said, to which the duo started to water at the mouth.
“Cupcakes don’t give you the right to disobey me.” The Advanced Hybrid said.
“But she’s our friend.” One of them said. “And friends help each other.” He turned to Pinkie. “That’s what friends do, right?”
Pinkie nodded, smiling, wiping away her tears. Surprise was huddled up next to her. “Uh-huh.”
The scene made the Chimera Unicorn’s blood boil. ‘No! They can’t do this. They’re supposed to listen to me. The song commands it. Why won’t they listen? Why won’t the song play? WHY?’ He wanted nothing more then to tear them to shreds. To claw out their eyes, and rip out their throats. He still had the Bullseye rifle beside him. Since he lacked hands, he couldn’t fire it. ‘WHY?’ He’d have to rely on his own teeth. He was outnumbered by the snipers, but he was far stronger than them and the others still listened to them. ‘But how long will it be before they too go mad?’
Before he could strike, a voice called out. “What is going on here?” He turned to look as a light tan, white haired, pony came over to him. She had a pair of spectacles on her face.
“He hit us.” Surprise said, pointing at him. He snarled in response.
“Is this true?” The mare said.
“What of it?” The Advanced Hybrid responded.
“I will have you know, that I am the mayor of this town.” The mare said. “And I will not have ponies in my town hurting others.”
“Your town?” The Advanced Hybrid had a flicker of interest in this pony. “Are you the Supreme Commander of this ‘town’.”
“Supreme Commander?” The Mayor raised an eyebrow. “If you mean I run this town, then yes.”
‘Finally, a pony of my caliber.’ He smiled. He looked to the others. *Grab her.* He cackled in the Chimera language. Two Earth pony Chimera nodded. One of them charged into Mayor Mare’s side, knocking her down, while the other ran around her and held her down. “Then I relieve you of your command.”
“Relieve of my…” The Mayor was speechless.
“You’re lucky I haven’t decided to devour you.” The Advanced Hybrid growled, bringing his face next to hers. He licked her cheek, savoring the flavor of flesh once more. “Which is a shame. You’re rather tasty.” The Mayor’s cheeks were red, not getting the real meaning behind those words. He turned his attention back to the others. “Secure those two traitor’s and their ‘friends’ here.” They nodded. “Bring the human and the pony supreme Commander with us.” He walked out of the door. “And no killing.” The other Chimera groaned. He knew he was being a hypocrite, as he was about to kill himself, but he wouldn’t have his pawns running around in a blood crazed state. He needed to keep order here. He would have to do as the new Supreme Commander.
