Deafened

Flashbang!

"Rainbow... are you sure this is a good idea?" Fluttershy mumbled as she apprehensively held the grenade in her hands. She was holding so tightly on it, as if one slip of the finger, and the thing would go off in your faces.

"Come on, Fluttershy!" You groan. "We've already been preparing so far for this moment, we'll might as well go through it!"

"B...but...this might hurt Anon!" Fluttershy protests. "What if he dies?! We'll be murderers!"

"Please, for the love of God do you even know what these things are?" You snatch the flashbang out of her hands, causing her to jump back in fear. "They're used by the police to knock out criminals so they take them out without killing anybody. The reason they were invented was so that they DON'T kill people when they're thrown!"

"But... how did you even get it?" Fluttershy asks.

"Oh it was easy." You say. "Shining Armor, Twilight's sister is part of the Canterlot Police; they've got whole stashes of these things! They'll never notice if just one of them is gone."

You look at your phone, and it's 2:40. You've heard rumors that Anon was about to ask out that new girl with the super poofy orange hair. You forgot what her name was; Agario? No...that doesn't sound right, that's the game where you eat the cells, not her name.

You take a peek from your hiding spot and sure enough, you see a girl with purple heeled boots with hair so poofy it made Pinkie Pie's look like nothing. But more importantly, at a nearby table is a brown haired guy wearing a green button up shirt and khakis with a slight blush to his face. That's Anon alright.

"Here they are, get ready!" You whisper to Fluttershy as you duck back under cover.

You start stretching your arms, then crack your neck a few times. Meanwhile, Fluttershy's eyes are closed shut, her hands over her ears. You can see her visibly shaking in fear; shaking so much that to a distant observer it would almost look like she has hypothermia. Ignoring Fluttershy, you swing your arm giving a couple practice throws, until you feel confident you can land it right on the table Anon and the girl are sitting at.

Taking a deep breath, you pull the pin off, and toss the grenade as hard as you can before grabbing Fluttershy's arm, and bolting the heck out of the room.
