Chapter 4: Regained Trust

Chapter 4: Regained Trust

Twilight was talking to Lyra as she was getting ready to travel around with the group. Packing some stuff for the adventure she felt she was going on. Spitfire took Aon out into the cute upstairs hall to talk. “So am I, your new VIP then?” Spitfire asked, sounding a little embarrassed. Aon looked into her eyes. “You are much more than that. Not only will I protect you, I will follow every order you give me and do whatever is in my power to keep you happy. You saved my life. For that I am eternally grateful.” Spitfire smiled. She could sense his words were genuine. Before Spitfire could continue with any emotion or words the door slammed open behind her, out coming Lyra and Twilight. “Alright you two ready to go?” Twilight asked. That made Spitfire jump a little, the two looked at each other and nodded. Beginning down the stairs with a “Let’s go.”

For whatever reason, Lyra asked everyone to wait outside while she said her goodbyes to Bon Bon. No one seemed to know why, but they respected it. When they got outside Twilight looked at Aon and then over to the guard with a look of authority. “Guard, you can give Aon his axe back.” Having learned his lesson for disobeying orders from last time, he did so right away levitating over the axe. Aon looked very pleased to see his axe again. “You trust me with it?” He asked. “I don’t see any reason not to trust you with it. You have been trust worthy so far and I think you have earned that right back.”

It was a very large and intimidating axe. The blade was a very intricate black and white metal with many rails and gears. Like a headsman’s axe but a lot fancier. Aon took the Axe from the guard’s magic hold. Taking hold of his mighty axe once again, he gave it a twirl and spin. Then it folded up and did some fancy compacting before clicking it onto his back under his cape.

“Impressive.” Spitfire commented. Then Lyra opened up the door with a smile and let out very enthusiastic “All set and ready for adventure.” Twilight let everyone know “The train will be here pretty soon, about twenty minutes. Come on, It’s this way.” She waved her hoof and the group started walking, and not even halfway down the street somepony let out a sudden scream of death. Lyra was confused and a little angry. “Oh come on! Aon is not scary.” Aon stopped and turned around. “I’m not what she is afraid of.”

…

At the far end of the street a massive Red and White dragon landed on two houses, flattening them to the ground in an instant. Aon was stunned at the sheer size of the beast. Easily sixty to eighty feet tall, with two massive horns on its head, and a look of anger that struck horror into anyone who saw. The beast let out a roar that could be heard all across Ponyville. Twilight, Lyra and Spitfire were frozen in horror.

Aon’s heart sank, as the dragon raised its massive fist into the air. It brought it down with such anger it went through another few houses, smashing them and anything in them. Ponies were screaming in fear and horror, running in any direction away from the massive dragon. Pure chaos was among the little town of Ponyville.
Like he was trained to, Aon slung out his rifle and pulled the bolt back, checking that it was loaded and took aim. “Permission to engage?” He yelled out.

Twilight snapped out of the horror still petrified. “Engage? Engage what?” She asked, scared and heartbroken at what she just saw. “The dragon!” Aon barked out. “Kill it before it kills anyone else.” He explained.
“What!? Kill it how are you going to-“ Twilight started, only to be cut off by Spitfire.

“DO IT!” Spitfire yelled out.

“Cover your ears!” Aon yelled back

The ponies ducked their heads and covered their ears. Aon took aim. The dragon raised its head up for a roar. Aon took the shot. With a loud boom the shot went into the dragon’s jaw. With a loud crunch, it shattered the beast’s lower left jaw mid roar. The roar now turned into an ear piercing moan of pain.
A fluid pull of the bolt, a ting as the large shell flung out of the chamber and a firm click back in place Aon was ready to shoot again.

The massive beast lifted its head back up and looked straight at Aon. His crosshair between the enraged eyes, he thought. “Good night.” With another loud boom, the beast fell. Crashing to the ground with an earthquake like thud.

Twilight brought her head up. “What did you do!?” She asked in anger. “I killed it.” Aon answered, sounding angry. “Why!?” Twilight asked still angry. Spitfire pushed Twilight’s shoulder a little. “Twilight, it was the right thing to do! Think of the destruction it would have caused if Aon didn’t kill it so quickly.” Spitfire was quick to defend Aon. Twilight looked livid. “How did you even kill it? No magic can even begin to harm a dragon that size.” Aon flipped the safety on his rifle and held it in front of Twilight. “It wasn’t magic. It was two high velocity armor piercing bullets.”

Umm... Where did that dragon came from? He just comes out of the blue and trashes the town with no apparent reason. That scene looks like it's just some sort of an excuse for Aon to use his gun.

I keep reading Aon's name as Anon. Dammit WHY?
