> Soldiers without Borders > by Goku the Super Sandwich4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- There he was in an abandoned castle fighting a what appeared to be a half human half alicorn. She was as black as the night, eyes that were as cold as death, teeth as sharp as knives with nothing but killer intentions. Yet at the same time her body was beautiful, she had nice curves and D cup breasts. Despite all of this he was never once phased by her looks, to be honest he just wanted survive. One thing that bugged him was the fact that he had just killed his nemesis on Earth, and then got blown up by a nuclear black hole. This should have killed him, but he certainly didn't feel dead and, he was pretty damn sure when you die you don't keep your weapons and gear. The evil mare then shot another bolt of energy at him; he easily dodged it by rolling out the way. Then taking out his tomahawk, which had a Phoenix theme to it, and pulling out his combat knife, he got into his combat stance "Is that the best you got, Nightmare Moon? A blind person would make a better shot than you." The mare that was now called Nightmare growled at him and said; "You pathetic mortal, you haven't seen what I'm capable of!" "I'm no pathetic mortal; my name is Captain Mike McKay aka The Blaze leader of the Fire Wolves." Blaze was about 5'9” and had light brown skin; his hair was styled into a black mohawk. He had an average muscular body and wore his lucky grey Fire Wolves hoodie with a grey tactical vest holding most of his gear which consisted of grenades, a combat knife, flash bangs, some throwing knives, also forest green pants equipped with holsters for his two pistols, he had black grip finger less gloves and black combat boots. On his was his wrist was his wrist computer that connected to his eye screen and ear piece. The wrist computer stored his weapons, held data, communicator, GPS, and entertainment system. Blaze's weapon set was a Mark 2 Blaster Rifle; this rifle is the most advance in the world. it doesn't rely on bullets, but on solar energy to create deadly laser beams for lethal attack and then there is an electric beam for stunning the enemy. It also housed a reusable grappling gun to get to high places, two Desert Eagle,s one golden which was from his father, and one silver which was from his mother, some grenades, EMP grenades, and a spy drone."Man I can't believe this is happening, and just think a few hours ago I was on Earth." Three hours ago, Earth, Russia; The year is 2251, and the Earth is in the middle of huge war against an army of terrorists known as The Paradox. The Paradox thinks that the world should be under one ruler and that freedom does not exist. But today that was all about to change thanks to a multinational team of four elite black ops known as the Fire Wolves. Their Captain, Miles McKay, aka Blaze, to lead them into the mission that might close this war once and for all.A huge plane flew over the thick forest. Inside were five soldiers waiting and preparing for the mission that lay ahead. Captain Blaze, Tech, Rhino, Angel Feet, and Quick Draw, the five best soldiers the world has to offer. "Well everyone, this is it the mission that can actually win this war or bring the world into complete hell. The entire world is counting on us especially, every soldier on the front lines causing a distraction for us to get by quietly, anyways ready up is in three minutes," said Blaze. "This is madness, Blaze. All of us against an entire base? We are going to get killed before we even reach the objective,” responded Tech “You’re wrong Tech, have you seen this team? We have the Russian brute Rhino, who once flipped an entire armored jeep to give his comrades cover.” "Da, it was nothing,” Rhino interjected. The Russian Rhino, or Rafik Nekrasov, was about 6'1” had a brown buzz cut hairstyle. He had a very muscular body, he also wore his Fire Wolves combat fatigues with forest camouflage. Had a black bandanna wrapped around his head, and had a wrist computer connected to his eyes and ear. His weapon set was a X20 Chain-gun , 200 bullets in under ten seconds is all you need to know about this gun, as a secondary he has a AA-20, the rapid fire shotgun. He also carried some grenades, claymores, and mine detector. "Then there’s our lovely British's ninja, Angel Feet, who manage to infiltrate a blow up high tech prison without being seen or heard." "I'm not one to brag but it was one of my best moments,” Angel Feet said while blushing. Angel Feet, or Jenny Valentine, was around 5'4”, and had blond straight hair in a ponytail. Her skin was slightly tanned due from being outside all the time. She had a slightly curvy figure and had a nice pair of B cup breasts, and wore a gear sneaking suit which kind of reminded most people of Solid Snake and she also had a wrist computer like Rhino. Her weapons were Weston SMG02 and as a secondary two old fashion M9's with silencers attached. Also she had grenades, smoke grenades, flash bang, and micro cameras bots. "Then there’s our silent Japanese American gunslinger, Quick Draw, he outgunned a dozen men in only under a minute." Quick Draw said nothing, just giving a smirk. Quick Draw, or Alex Weston, was about 5'7”, had black spiky hair and wore a mask that covered most of his face. He had an average muscular body just like Blaze, and he wore black slim body armor under his forest tactical vest and had forest camouflage pants. Just like everyone had a wrist computer. His weapons were two P92 SMGs, and two 44. Magnums. Also grenades, EMP grenades , sticky grenades, and throwing knives. "Last, but not least you, Tech, the young genius. You made a communicator out of paperclips and a subway coupons for Christ sake! If anything we are more than qualified to do this mission." "...If you say, so Blaze," Tech replied, Tech, or Jason Frost, was the youngest of the group. He was 5'7”, just like Quick Draw, and had brown hair that went straight down, he wasn't as muscular as the other but always manage to carry his weight. He had the same suit like Echo but his was all black. His weapon set was the spas-14 pump shotgun, also dual G-18 machine gun pistols. He had EMP grenades, C5, a backpack that contained all this technology like his computer, electrical tools, and his spy bots. Just then the doors of the plane opened up Blaze could feel the winds slapping his face. It felt somewhat refreshing, and with that the five jumped out of the plane, when landing on a roof they removed their parachutes, prepared their weapons and headed out to the nearest vet which led to a hallway. The five made it down a few hallways taking out any who would pose as a threat silently as possible. As the five made their way into what appear an empty mess hall then stopped and hid behind some of the tables and chairs. "Tech, use your sonar eye to map out the quickest route to our target." Blaze whispered out "Roger that." Tech replied then a green holograph came over his right eye, pressing a few button on his wrist the sound of a rapid beeping noise came from his wrist "Tech what was that" Blaze said in a concerned tone "Ok there is good news and bad news, the good news is that I found the objective, it’s on your hawk eye, the bad news is that our location has been compromised." "What do you mean compromised? did you..."Blaze was cut off by the alarm going off. "We have intruders in the mess hall I repeat in the intruders in the mess hall, this is not a drill I repeat this is not a drill.” a man said on the intercom. "Damn it, ugh ok guy's weapons ready." Blaze ordered. The team took out many soldiers but even with their combined skills they were still outnumbered. "Bring in the radioactive gas and shut all doors, that should kill them" shouted one of the soldiers “Crap, Rhino pick up that table, we'll use it as a shield.” "Da roger that comrade" Rhino respond The squad charged their way through unfortunately the door was closing and they weren't going make. "We’re not going to make it!” cried out Tech "Not if I have anything to do about it!" Said Rhino Rhino then grabbed the closing door and starts to lift it, everyone runs under except Blaze. "What are you doing run under captain I can handle them!" Rhino cried out "No I won’t leave you!!!"Blaze shouted out "Captain you know good as well that most of us won’t make it out alive" Blaze knew that Rhino was right but didn't want to accept the reality that this might be his team’s last mission, but went through the door. "See that easy” said Rhino until a bullet hit his right arm causing him to lose his grip on the door and collapse on him. "Ack!!!!!" Rhino yelled out as he was being crushed by the door then started to cough up blood "Rhino!!!" Tech yelled out "Forget..... me ...(cough) just…. go" "What!? Are you crazy? We are not leaving you!" "Don't worry, you will understand later now go" Just as Tech was about to argue, Blaze grabbed Tech by the arm and pulled him into the next hallway. As the four escaped Rhino took out all his grenades pulled the pins and said, "When you get to hell tell them the Rhino sent yah" *BOOM* The sound of the explosion rang through the entire base and with the The Russian Rhino had fallen. "I can’t believe he's gone" Tech said in a monotone voice "He died for the greater good and if we fail his death will mean nothing." Blaze replied. Meanwhile in a different location of the base “I see they made it out of sector five… Send in the drones.” said a mysterious voice. "But sir the drones are still prototypes, we don't know if they even work.” replied one of the henchmen. "Are you questioning my authority Delta 42?" "No sir I......" *Bang* Delta42 was interrupted with a bullet in his head and collapsed; the rest of the henchmen picked up body and dragged it away. "And that's what happens when you go against my command.” the mystery voice said. Back with Blaze's Team The team was running down what felt like an endless hallway and just as Blaze was about make a turn, Quick Draw grabbed him and yanked him back. "Quick Draw, what was that for?" Blaze said slightly annoyed Quick Draw took out an empty mag and threw it, next thing you know the mag gets brutally torn by bullets from the drones. "OK you made your point" Blaze said sheepishly "How can we get by without getting shot" said Angel Feet "Well we could always just...”Tech was interrupted by Quick Draw which was much unexpected because Quick Draw never talks "When I say go run like hell to that door okay" Everyone nodded in agreement, the Quick Draw took out his EMP grenades threw it at the drones, when the EMP grenade went off he yelled "GO!!" Everyone ran like there was no tomorrow everyone except Quick Draw. He just stood in front of the turret holding his sub-machine guns. "Quick Draw what the hell are you doing!? get over here!” Blaze shouted out "No, I'm sorry but this is the end of the road for me, unless these drones are destroyed those things will just follow you" Quick Draw responded flatly Blaze sigh to himself he knew Quick Draw was right, so he and what was left of his team ran off. Blaze sighs. “Two comrades in one day, I guess this is my last mission." Blaze thought to himself Quick Draw held his guns up and started to charge "Well looks like I'm going to be late for that movie." he chuckled. With that he ran towards the drones firing his guns off taking down as much drones he could see yet at the same time he could feel the bullets tearing his suit and skin, but continued on rushing. As he destroyed the final drone he felt a heavy pain in his chest turns out one of the drones shot out a hidden spear in his heart, he pulled it out and sat down leaning against a wall, with all the adrenaline gone and the amount of blood he loss he knew it was the end he looked up with tears in his eyes and said "I regret nothing” and with that he died ................................................................................................... The team or what was left of the team finally made it to the objective, standing in front was a metal door. "So this is it, this is the moment we've be training for, Angel Feet set the charges we're going to breach." Blaze commanded. "Roger that captain breaching now.” She replied. *BOOM* The team ran into the room but it was dark and quiet to quiet. The team spread out to search for the target but found nothing; they regrouped and started to report their status. "Did you find anything” Blaze asked his teammates "Nothing" Tech "Me neither I guess they moved we should move...Ack" Angel Feet was cut off by a sword piercing through her chest she started to cough up blood then the sword retracted out of her, Angel Feet then fell down to reveal a man he had blond hair was about 5’9” with green eyes and a scar over his left eye. "NOOOOO!" Blaze yelled out then caught Angel Feet, he looked up at the man and said "Decker you bastard I will kill you for this." The blond known as Decker gave a sadistic laugh and said,"You have three minutes before my sister dies better get you last words in Mike and if you need me I'll be in the control room" then started to walk away "Jenny stay with me you can make this.” Blaze replied in a frighten tone. "Mike it’s too late I...I feel cold.” she replied. "J....Jenny there are so many things I wanted to tell you. it can't end here." "I know…” She coughs “me too Mike ... I've loved you ever since the day I saw you at the academy but I never had the courage to tell you, guess I took too long ." "Jenny...."Mike leaned in and gave her a passionate kiss "Promise me that you will live your life (cough) and have a family make it out of this mission alive, ok?" "I.....I promise Jenny." "T…Thank you Mike" then died in his arms Blaze then closed her eyes and set her down. He stood up and checked his surrounding, and then he realized that Tech was gone. "Oh crap" Blaze realize that Tech must have ran off to take on Decker by himself. He ran at neck breaking speeds to the control room as he kick the door down he saw Decker grabbing a bloody and beaten up Tech by his throat then tossing to Blaze's feet. Blaze picked Tech brought Tech to his feet. "Can you walk?” Blaze asked his friend "I'll manage" Tech replied "Sorry to interrupt gents, but I do have a nukes to launch” Decker interrupted "Ha, Decker nukes, is that it really it, what’s really going on" Blaze said "Ahh… I see you still have your wits and skills, brother." Decker spat out the last word. "Don't call me that! You lost that privilege a long time ago." "Whatever, anyways these are no ordinary nukes, over the years I've studied black hole technology each of these nukes has unstable black holes that will rip anything molecule by molecule apart and send it to the sun." "What!? You’re crazy, you'll kill millions of innocent people!" Tech shouted out “Blaze we have to stop him" "Your half right Tech he needs to be stopped, but by me alone.” Blaze replied "Yeah wait wha...”Blaze knocked out Tech with his favorite move 'The Vulcan Neck Pinch' then put him into the nearest escape pod and sealed the hatch, and with that, the pod shot off leaving the base. "Smart move Mike he'll just get in the way" Decker said. "Shut up" Blaze replied coldly then pointed his golden and silver desert eagles at Decker. "What you think killing me with your parent’s pistols will solve your nuke problem? Even if I die the nukes will still be launched" Decker replied. "Really now?" Blaze said then fired some shots but it wasn't at Decker, he shot the control panel. "Error 67. Black hole nuclear missiles overloaded. Self-destruct in 2 minutes!!!" Said one of the soldiers on the intercom. "What the hell you'll kill both of us!!" Decker shouted out “Two minutes won’t give us time to escape" "Exactly it won't give us time to escape but enough time to fight" Blaze replied then pulled out his Phoenix tomahawk and combat knife then got into his combat stance. "One last fight, eh? Fine." Decker replied calmly then pulled out his wolf fang blade "I see you still have that stupid fire bird hatchet." then got into his combat stance. "I see you still have your mutt sword as well." Blaze responded The two soldiers locked eyes on to each other not letting each other out of their sights. Decker was the first to attack as he rushed towards Blaze at neck breaking speeds, he started with some slashes which Blaze blocked, then Decker went for the stab, Blaze blocked Decker’s sword with his tomahawk then countered by elbowing him in the face with his free arm. Decker staggered back a couple steps, dazed. Blaze used his chance to dash forwards, throwing his tomahawk at Decker, but Decker dodged it by ducking. "Ha you missed" Decker said. "Did I?" Blaze replied then stabbed Decker in his side. "Ah, looks like you actually hit me." "There's more where that came from." "Really now?" Decker then punched Blaze in the stomach with all his might; it sent Blaze back a few. "Hey Mike let’s just end this, the nuke should be going off right… about… now." The outer shell of the nuke started to break apart piece by piece, then the black holes started to appear and expand, ripping the base apart. Blaze could hear the building falling apart he looked at Decker and said, "You're right next attack is a fatal wound" then picked up his tomahawk. "Fine by me…" Decker replied readying his sword. "On the count of three..." "One" "Two" "Three!!!" Blaze and Decker charged at each other then made a huge slash with their weapons. Neither of them said a word until Decker fell to the ground bleeding out of his neck. Blaze just held his stance and didn't move, one thing was for sure he felt his body slowly losing energy, and then his body was starting to fade away and in an instant Decker and himself were gone. > The End is only the begining > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike was unconscious after the fight with Decker he was knocked out for an hour or two. In his mind all he could think about was how he succeeds in his mission but failed to keep his promise. "Decker is dead I completed my mission but I never kept my promise, sorry Jenny even I know that nuke more than likely killed me." He thought to himself. Just then he heard water flowing almost like there was a stream nearby or maybe it was a river. Mike's eyes shot wide open but his vision was still blurry then got up. When his vision cleared up he saw it was daytime and there was a meadow like field with a small stream next to him. "Where the hell am I and why am I not dead or am I?" Mike asked to himself then looked at his wrist computer to see if he could pinpoint his location. “Damn its telling me this location is unknown I’m probably in an uncharted area and there might not civilization for miles, but even if I was close by I have no idea which direction civilization is." Just then something in the sky caught his attention it appeared to be some kind of shiny metal box flying pretty fast, then in an instant gone out of Mike field of vision. Mike stood there curious and wondering mysterious flying box was. "To small to be a plane, but it moves just like one." Mike thought to himself. "But there is a chance that thing is going to a place where there is civilization so I should probably follow it God I hope I'm right." Mike started to check his weapons and gear; he had his two gold and silver Dessert Eagles pistols with four magazine clips for each gun, his Mark 2 Blaster Rifle which had two rechargeable solar magazines and one rechargeable lighting round, his combat knife, three grenades, two flash bangs, and his Phoenix tomahawk. "Well everything seems to be in check, I guess." he told himself. ”I better head out I hope I find someone before it gets dark." Mike walked for a while until it became dark but he had enough light from the moon to see where he was going and in that time he never found one single person he started thinking that it would probably take more than a day to find people. But just as he was about to give up he saw a sign that said ' Ponyville two miles ahead' In his excitement he decided to run the next two miles without stopping. Mike finally reached the outskirts of Ponyville and decided to spy on the area first; he didn't want to walk in on the town and not know what he might be up against, so he activated his hawk eye and started to zoom in on the town. His eyes widen as he couldn't believe what he was watching he saw these multi-colored human like ponies walking around the town some had wings and were flying in the air while others had horns on their heads that would emits colors of energy then they had some that were just regular ponies that had neither of the two. “I’m guessing these are the locals.” He said to himself “I still can’t believe what they are; it just doesn't make any sense... a-am I dead or maybe I survived the blast and I'm in cold sleep." Mike then saw all the ponies going to the center of the town which had a building that stood in the middle of everything. He decided to get a closer look so he threw on his hood and pulled up his mask over his face so you could only see his eyes also he wouldn't cause any attention to himself and made his way into town. Luckily for Mike the ponies seemed to busy notice him apparently some kind of festivity was going inside the building, when everyone was inside he decided to look through a window. Mike saw so many colored ponies he thought he might go color blind but out of all the ponies there two stood out, one was pink and had extremely poofy and wild mane she was about 5'7 and had curvy body and C-cup breast which would constantly jiggle due to the fact that she was jumping up and down from excitement. She wore a pink t-shirt with a balloon design in the middle she also wore some navy blue jeans and pink tennis shoes the other pony had a horn and was lavender she was about a foot shorter than the pink one her body wasn't as curvy as the pink one but she had some curves and had the same breast size, her mane was neat, straight and dark violet with a light purple and pink streak running through it, she wore purple shirt with a longer black shirt under it, a purple skirt, and black leggings she also had black dress shoes to go with it. "Hmm I wonder what the occasion?" Mike thought to himself." Maybe a town meeting." As he was about to investigate something caught his eyes something that make his spine freeze up something he never thought he'd never see in a million years, it was Paradox soldiers four to be exact but something was off about them they were running with a cloak figure and carrying a unconscious pony that was tied and gagged black glowing ropes. This one like most of the ponies Mike saw was female due to her huge breast and curvy waist she looked taller than most of the ponies he'd already seen; she had wings and a horn, her coat was white as snow and her mane was multi-colored which would flow in the wind even though there was no wind wasn't blowing in the direction of her hair also she wore a white sun dress and golden slippers. "Boss we have kidnapped the princess and are moving to the castle now." said one of the soldiers to the cloaked figure. "Good let us begin stage two of the plan." the cloaked figure replied in a stern feminine voice then vanished in a dark blue smoke. "With these guys here there's bound to be trouble." Mike thought to himself. "As a Fire Wolf it's my job to stop guys like them." Mike was just about to chase them until he heard screaming coming from the front doors of the building, ponies where running in complete chaos so where even trampled during the anarchy. Since everyone seem to be in panic they never even notice Mike but to be fair his hood was on. Mike saw the same lavender unicorn, carrying a purple and green lizard, and running but not in a panicking state, she was less panicked and more worried like something was on her mind. To Mike she looked very suspicious and he decided to follow her. He followed her to a tree that had windows and a door there was also a sign that said 'Golden Oaks Library' the mare went inside and Mike followed right in then the mare went upstairs while Mike waited. "I can believe she hasn't notice me yet I mean I'm not even trying to be stealthy." Mike thought to himself. "This is too easy." When the mare came back downstairs her eyes widen when she saw Mike to her he looked very intimidating but she kept her composure. "W-Who are you and what do you want?" She asked. "You know it’s rude to ask for someone’s name before introducing yourself and my name is Mi... I mean Blaze; my name is Blaze you seem to know what’s going on around here care to fill me in.” he replied. “M-my name is Twilight Sparkle, weren't you inside when Nightmare Moon showed up?” "Um no I was outside when all of that happened and who's Nightmare Moon?" "You don't know about her, let’s just say she's the Evil Goddess of the night, anyways she captured Princess Celestia all I need to do is get the Elements of Harmony and-" Just as Twilight was about to explain a cyan pony with wings and a short but messy rainbow mane burst inside the room. She was around 5'6 and had B-cupped breast and while she looked feminine she had a tomboyish style, also she wore a sky blue tank top which a had a cloud with a rainbow colored lightning bolt in the middle, she also had black gym shorts, and blue running sneakers. "And just what are the Elements of Harmony and how did you know about Nightmare Moon, huh are you a spy? The cyan pony asked. "Also who is this guy?" Just as Mike or Blaze was about to introduce himself the same pink pony the he saw earlier along with three other ponies came through the door. The first one was the same height and body shape as the pink one the only difference was that she had more athletic features. Her coat was orange while her mane blond but most of her mane was covered by her Stetson hat with the exception of her ponytail, she wore an orange checkered blouse that was tied into a knot in the front and tight fitting jeans with cowboy boots. Next to her was a white unicorn mare she was the same height as the lavender mare and same body shape, she had a white coat and curly indigo mane she wore a dark blue dress that was slightly above knee length and black high heels. The final pony was Pegasus mare she had a light yellow coat and a pink straight mane that covered her face, out of all the mares inside she had the biggest bust and curves, she wore a green t-shirt with three pink butterflies in the center some light blue jeans and white sneakers. "I go by Blaze and you are." He responded in a slightly annoyed tone. "Mah name is Applejack please to make your acquaintance." The orange mare responded in a southern accent. She then took Mike's hand and shook it, she had an extremely tight grip on his hand but Mike didn't seem to mind. "Sorry about our friend Rainbow Dash getting in your face like that." "It's fine." He assured her but thought to himself saying. "Dang that sis lifts." "My name is Pinkie Pie I like parties, pranks, and especially cupcakes oh; we should have a welcome party after this for you Blazy." The pink mare said in a bubble cheery tone which to Blaze was slightly amusing but annoying at the same time. "Um that won’t be necessary, and don't call me Blazy!" He responded more even more annoyed than he already was. "My name is Rarity, oh and darling your clothes are hideous." The white mare said in a sophisticated voice. "After this come see me I will definitely change your clothes to something more appealing." "Um no thanks, wait what's wrong with my clothes?" Blaze said slightly offended but kept his cool. "All I'm saying is that it's to plain." she responded "Bitch." Blaze said under his breath "Anyways the name is Rainbow Dash but AJ already told you that, I am the fastest flyer in Equestria." The cyan Pegasus said in a boasting attitude. "Um ok so what?" Mike responded somewhat amused voice which made Rainbow Dash upset. "If there wasn't the fate of Equestria and Princess missing I would totally kick your ass." She said pissed. "Man she's annoying to bad I don't have duct tape on me duct tape solves everything even annoying horses." Blaze thought to himself then he turned his attention to the yellow mare that was looking extremely nervous. "I...I'm Fluttershy." She whispered out "What?" Blaze said trying to make out what she was saying. "I'm Fluttershy." She said again trying to sound louder but didn't work "What?" "Her name is Fluttershy!!!" Rainbow Dash said. "Can we get on with it, now what are the Elements of Harmony?" "Oh right, well the Elements of Harmony are the only things that can stop Nightmare Moon, but I don't know what they are, where to find them; I don't even know what they do!" Twilight explained slightly frustrated "The Elements of Harmony: a Reference Guide." Pinkie Pie read out aloud which surprised everyone in the room. "W-where did you find that I didn't see it anywhere?" Twilight asked "It was under Eeee."Pinkie Pie responded in a singing tone. Twilight then took the book from Pinkie Pike and started to read aloud. "So apparently there are six elements but only five are known: Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Honesty and Loyalty. The sixth is a complete mystery. It is said, the last known location of the five elements was in the ancient castle of the royal pony sisters. It is located in what is now known as the Everfree Forest. "The Everfree Forest!?!" The other ponies yelled in unison "What's the Everfree Forest?" Blaze asked "You mean you don't know what the Everfree Forest is it the most dangerous place in Ponyville." Rarity said "Where are you from darling." "Let’s just say I'm from out of town." He replied "Now where is the Everfree Forest?" "Well it’s on the northern outskirts of Ponyville I reckon it should only take fifteen minutes to get there." Applejack said. "Follow me ah'll show ya." "Um before we go I need check something." Blaze said. He then took out his knife and stabbed himself in the leg and let out a small grunt. "What in the name of Celestia are you doing!?!" Twilight yelled extremely freaked out from Blazes action. "I just needed to check if is really happening." He replied as he was patching up the wound he just made." Besides I didn't hit anything vital." "Look I know this is a lot to take in but don't you think that was a little too far." Twilight responded "Also I get light headed when I see blood." "Well I'm fine now let's get out of here." Everyone exited the library Blaze was second to last and Fluttershy was last. Something that caught Fluttershy attention was the fact that she didn't see Blaze with a tail, all ponies have tails some short but still a tail. "I'll have to ask him later." Fluttershy thought to herself. Fifteen Minutes later. The group finally made it to the entrance of the Everfree Forest and just as the ponies were about to enter Blaze threw his knife down in their path the six mares stop dead in their tracks until Rainbow Dash spoke up. "What the heck are you doing we have to get inside the forest you know?" She said in an annoyed tone. "Not we just me and Twilight it’s too dangerous, you five will stay here while me and Twilight stop Nightmare Moon." Blaze replied then took off the safety on his rifle. "He's right it would be too dangerous for you and you'll probably get in the way." Twilight added on. "Don't get ahead of yourself Twilight the only reason you’re coming along is because you have information about the Elements of Harmony and Nightmare Moon not because I want your company." "Hmp jerk." Twilight said "I didn't want your help anyways." "You need my help or you'll be killed by the Paradox." "Um Mr Blaze can I ask you something if that's ok with you." Fluttershy said "You can just call me Blaze, but sure shoot." he replied in the nicest tone he could think of he didn't want to sound harsh because he see that Fluttershy was gentle and her emotions were fragile and probably cry's easy. "Well um it’s just that you don't have a tail, I've been meaning to ask you but I couldn't muster up the strength." "Now that I think about where is your tail and why is your face covered?" Twilight ask. "That's none of your concern." Blaze replied "What, we have all the right to know!" Rainbow Dash said "No you don't!" Blaze yelled then turned around and started to walk towards the forest. Just then Rainbow Dash grabbed his hood off and his mask fell off at the same time. The six mare gasp at Blaze's face. "What are you?” Twilight asked. He didn't respond just turned around and kept quiet. "Please Blaze tell us who you are if that's ok?" Fluttershy said in the most concerned tone then put a hand on his shoulder. "(Sigh) I'm a human, I was sent here by an explosion while I was fighting the Paradox that's all I can tell you right now." He explained. "The Paradox?" Rainbow Dash said with a questionable look on her face. “You keep talking about these Paradox guys who the hay are the Paradox?" "(Sigh) The Paradox is one of the most evil, corrupt, and insane military organizations." Mike replied. "Yeah well they don't sound so tough I bet I could take them down ten seconds flat." Rainbow Dash said proudly while puffing out her chest. "You don't understand there not like any other soldiers you've seen their ruthless killers." "K-killers?" Fluttershy spoke nervously her legs were practically shaking at this point. "Yes ruthless killers they care for no one but themselves." He replied to Fluttershy. "They can't be that bad I mean what's the worst they can do?" Rainbow Dash said. "Then you don't them like I do, the Paradox don't care if you’re a child or an adult they will kill their own comrades hell they enjoy it if it's your birthday. I've seen so many birthday executions I've become used to it." He said coldly. All the mares had a sad and scared look on their face some even cried a little. Then there was an awkward silence until Applejack said. "That's mighty wrong what them fellers are doing but we are still coming." She said "(Sigh) fine you can come but I'm not responsible anyone who gets injured or dies." "Dies? (Gulp)” Fluttershy said just as everyone entered the forest leaving her by herself "Wait for me." Inside the Everfree Forest The group walked quietly in the forest for a while everyone seem to just keep everything to themselves until Twilight decided to break the silence and start a conversation. "So, none of you have been here before?" she asked. "Ugh, heavens no! Just look at it... it's dreadful." Rarity replied. “And it ain’t natural. Folks say it don't work the same as Equestria." Applejack added. "Oh, what's that supposed to mean?" Twilight said. "No pony knows. You know why?" Rainbow Dashed said trying to sound menacing as possible with she hovered in the air. Blaze could see the look of fear on Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie's face. He was about to step in but Applejack beat him to it, "Rainbow, quit it already.", she told Rainbow Dash in a commanding tone, but her friend still continued, ”'cause every pony who's come in, has never came out!" She shouted while she dropped on the ground with force. Mike was about to ignore it until he felt the ground under his feet collapsing, then in an instant he was sliding downwards along with the girls. Trying get a grip on something he pulled out his tomahawk and hooked it into the ground, he managed to get a grip and stopped sliding down instantly. "Phew, that was close" Blaze said. But he spoke to soon as Twilight slid right in front of him, he could see under her skirt ironically she was wearing pink panties, Blaze was extremely surprised to see her panties and his nose started to bleed while in the process Twilight bump into him and his tomahawk lost its grip. "Aw crap!" He said as he started to fall, he then took out his blaster rifle and changed the setting to grappling hook. Blaze fired his gun and the hook caught on to a piece of the cliff, Blaze swung into a side of the cliff and bashed his arm extremely hard, he could feel it being dislocated out of his shoulder. He let out a silent grunt of pain and swung to the ground he could feel that he was coming to fast so he retracted the hook and tucked himself in so he could roll. As rolled he could feel the pain jolting in his arm but wouldn't show any sign of weakness. As he recovered and got to his feet he saw that the six mares had also made it down safely. "What the hell is were to thinking you nearly killed me!" Blaze shouted at Twilight with complete anger. "Well excuse me for being in panic, it’s not like anypony got hurt." she replied being annoyed by Blaze's anger. "Yeah no pony did, but somebody did get hurt." He said. “Hey Fluttershy can you do me a favor and pass me that piece of bark?" "Um ok." She replied then passing him the nearby bark feeling unsure if she should have. Blaze put the bark in his mouth, which taste not that bad in view, and bit down on it extremely hard. He used his good arm a grabbed a hold of the dislocated arm and popped it back in place, he could even hear the popping sound coming from his shoulder and it hurt like a bitch. "Oh my goodness, you’re hurt." The yellow mare said which was slightly louder than she is used to. "Not anymore." He replied. "It's was just a dislocated arm, I'll live." "Hey, I've been wondering what that thing is?" Rainbow Dash asked pointing towards Blaze's blaster rifle. "It's the Mark 2 Blaster, this rifle is one of the most advance guns of all time. I will never have to worry about running out of ammo ever again and it also has so many useful attachments, it’s like a utility knife but in a gun version." "Um yeah what’s a gun?" Pinkie Pie asked then out of nowhere she was holding his two Dessert Eagles. "Are they guns too, their kinda heavy." "How did you get those, give them back." Blaze responded the snatched the guns out of her hands and place them pack in his holsters. “Wait you don't know what a gun is?" "Nope." She replied in her cheery tone. "Well it's basically a weapon that shoots out extremely fast projectiles some are metal others are heat energy like my rifle." He explained. "So I'm guessing you don't have guns here?" "Nope." "Great now I'll have to conserve on my bullets." He said in a sarcastic tone "Any ways let’s keep moving." The group continued on walking down the dirt path that seem to quiet for Blaze's approval he had this feeling that something was going to pop out and bite is head off but maybe it still that fact that he's in another world with no clue what to do. "Ladies keep your eyes open something is off about this path." He said quietly. Just as they were about to make it out of the mysterious path when a large figure jumped out of the nearby bushes. At first Blaze couldn't make out what it was but where he got a good look at it all he could say was. "Sweet mother of old spice and taco Jesus that the hell is that!" It had the body of a lion, wings of a bat, and tail of a scorpion. Blaze didn't even need approval to ready his gun it had the I going to kill you look in his eyes, he would have open fired but thought that it might not be such a good idea, opening fire on an animal that you never seen before isn't the best idea he learn that a long time ago and it is something he will never forget but that is another story for another time. "It's a manticore!! Twilight yelled then the manticore started to roar. “We've got to get passed it." Then the manticore pounced with all its might at the mares and Blaze, instantly the manticore swept one of its claws at them and by instinct Blaze jump back keeping his distance from the beast and him. "Keep your distance I may not know what that thing is but I'm sure you don't want to get hit with those claws or stinger." He said. The mares nodded in response and moved back to keep their distance all except Fluttershy who kept moving closer to the manticore. "Fluttershy what the hell are you doing get back here." Blaze said still having his gun aimed at the manticore. She ignored him and continued to walk toward the manticore. When she was finally in front of it the manticore raised it paw. "Fluttershy!!!" Everyone yelled out. Blaze then rushed toward putting away his rifle and pulling out his tomahawk and knife as he was about in put a blade in its skull he stopped to see that Fluttershy was pulling out a huge thorn out of the manticore paw. The manticore was so happy to be relieved from its pain that it started to lick Fluttershy as a sign of gratitude for helping it. "Great job I guess sometimes all you need is a little kindness." Blaze said then walked pass the manticore with the others except Twilight who stayed behind to talk to Fluttershy. As they went deeper into the forest it became a lot darker. The only thing giving them light was the moon, which barely shown though the tree tops. "Hey I'm going to go ahead and see what we might go up against." Blaze told the other mares. Before they could even say anything he was already gone. Blaze started to walk deeper and deeper in the forest the more he went the darker, so he turned on his Hawkeye’s night vision, all he saw was funny shaped trees that had scary faces but to Blaze it was very amusing. "Those would have made good decorations for Halloween at the K9 Base." He said to himself. After sometime he made it out of the dense dark forest and was stopped by a river which was moving extremely ruff. He decided to wait for the girls plan out their next move. It took about a half an hour for them to come out one thing he notice was Applejack boots had brown stuff in the bottom. "Um, that's mud right?" He asked in a joking tone. "What, oh yeah hehe it's mud don't worry about it partner." "So we made it through the thick part of the forest but this river current are to ruff to cross over I could use the grappling gun but I don't know if you can support your weight. You may not look heavy but for all I know you probably weigh a ton.” Blaze explain. "Wait a minute are you calling us fat?" Rainbow Dash said in an extremely threatening tone. “Because I will make you eat those words buster!" "Damn this girl have anger issues." He thought to himself, just then he heard what sounded like crying coming from one side of the bush. “Follow me and stay down." He told them then advanced toward the crying, to discover some kind of purple sea monster crying like a baby and splashing the water uncontrollably which was causing the extremely crazy currents. "Whoa what’s wrong with you, you’re crying so hard that you're making the river impossible to get though." Blaze ask the monster. "Well, I don't know. I was just sitting here, minding my own business, when this tacky little cloud of purple smoke just whisked past me and tore half of my beloved moustache clean off, and now I look simply horrid." The sea monster replied then continued crying. "Oh give me a break." Rainbow Dash said in a slightly irritated tone. "That's all?" Applejack added. "I heard of obsessed but your bat shit insane just for a moustache. You know what, I'm just going to sit this one out." Blaze said then sat down and leaned on a tree and went to sleep. In Blaze's Perspective and Dream As I close my eyes I start to dream I see a park people playing enjoying their lives smiling everywhere like not a single worry is given. It feel so comforting and relaxing I wish I could stay like this forever. "I feel like I've been here before." I think to myself. "Hey hotshot are you coming or not everyone is waiting." A female voice yells out which breaks my train of thought. When I look to see who called my one of my many nicknames it’s none other than Jenny. "J...Jenny, what's she doing here." I think to myself. Half of me wants to run and kiss her but my other half is telling me that it’s just a dream and I'll make matter worse for myself. "Mike are you ok you seem of?" Jenny asked in a concerned tone. "Oh, I'm fine Jenny, let’s get going." I assure her, she shrugs and walks off with me following her. We walk around the park seeing the perfectly cut grass, the pond with the ducks swimming around, and the tall trees giving everyone shade. We finally reach our destination there's an oak tree and under it a blue blanket on the ground with a picnic basket, cooler and small table on the side. "I think I know what this is." I think to myself, then right on cue, the rest of my teammates jump out behind the tree and yell, "SURPRISE!!!" "What's all of this about?" I ask. "Well it's a congratulations on a first mission success picnic duh." Jason replied as he walked over to Mike giving him the manliest hug he could muster up. "You did such a great job as team leader we thought you deserved this the most." Jenny said then pulled out a knife." Now who wants cake?" "ME!!!" Jason and Rafik say simultaneously then look at each other only to look at the cake then back to each other. Then in flash they both bolted towards the cake with Jenny and Alex right behind of them and as usual Alex has his mask over and his favourite book out, he never changes. I get ready to walk over until I hear an explosion, fly back, and feel debris hit me. I get up only to look in horror as all my friends are cut up, bleeding, lying, on the ground and not moving. I run over to then and see Jenny on her back I gently pick her up and she slowly regains her conciseness. "W...Why didn't you save us Mike you could have saved us?" She asked while tears are rolling down her eyes. "Jenny I..." I was about to tell her until I hear a familiar laugh. I look up and see Decker floating in the air with an RPG in his hand. "Ha, you can't save anyone what makes you think you can save yourself from this Nightmare Moon?" He say then dashes at me and stabs me causing me to jolt awake. Back at The Everfree Forest still Mike or Blaze's Perspective "JENNY!!!!!"I yell while wake up to everyone looking at me also the sea monster looked happy and Rarity had a short tail. This has to be one of the weirdest wakeups I have ever seen. It even worse than the time I found a Zebra in my apartment. "What happen?" I ask Twilight who gives me a smug look then say's. "Well if you were awake you might had known." In here annoyed attitude tone then walked off have I ever mention her attitude is starting to piss me off. "Um Rarity gave her tail to the sea monster so he feel better about himself." Fluttershy says. "Thanks for the info Fluttershy." I say giving her a small smile while we crossover. "Oh no problem, but if it's ok with you who is Jenny?" She ask getting the rest of them look at me. Once I heard that name my smile dropped. "Old history, I don't want to talk about." I reply in the coldest tone. Everyone has a concerned look but shrug and continues to walk. "Um ok sorry for asking you I didn't mean to get into your business." We walk for a while and to be honest everything looks almost the same to me until I see Rainbow Dash holding Twilight's tail as she on the edge of a cliff that has loads of fog. I couldn't help but wish she had fell off the cliff so I would have to deal with her attitude I mean she acts like she has her time of the month every day. "So how do we get across?" Twilight asks everyone. "There's a bridge on the other side if we can get someone on the other side then they can bring to back to us." I say then point towards the fog. "What bridge all I see is fog. You're seeing things." Twilight say's. "(Sigh) Rainbow Dash please go on the other side and get the rest of the bridge." I say as I start to massage my temples, then I think to myself," I wonder if she really can't see... I think I know the reason why now." When I get out of my train of thought Rainbow Dash came back with the rest of the bridge and I repaired it to make it sturdy. When I finished I see that the girls already started to cross I follow behind, then I to see Applejack fall back to me and asks me, "How did yah see that bridge over there Blaze?" "Well Applejack my theory is since your equine your sight and sense of smell is not as strong mine." "What in the hay does that mean?" "Well it’s like this I have more predatory features than you like this..." I open my mouth and show her my carnivores’ teeth." My body is made for hunting and tracking so my vision is more advance than yours and my sense of smell." "S...so you eat flesh?" She responds in a nervous tone. "Yes but don't worry I don't eat ponies." I say giving her a reassuring smile. I can see the castle up ahead and all of us start to pick up the pace. I can see the determination on the girls faces in a way I kinda respect that but determination and courage isn't going to be of any use against those Paradox soldiers, those guys are ruthless and fight dirty, we are going to have to be very tactical when fighting then. Just then I saw three of the Paradox soldiers stand in front of the entrance of the castle by instinct I jump in the nearest bush to stay out of sight and the girl follow. “Keep quiet and stay here I’ll go and take down those guys.” I tell them as I’m about to take them out Fluttershy grabs my hand and tells me, “Please Blaze don’t kill them.” She has this pleading look in her eyes. “(Sigh) I’ll try but no promises.” I reply then dash out as fast as I can the first soldier sees me and is about to pull his assault rifle on me but I kick it out of his hand (guess he should have brought a strap) after I disarm him I throw three quick but hard jabs to his face and finish him off with a jump kick to the face. He drops to the ground with thud alerting the other two, then they start to rush me. The first on the right pulls out his knife which I slap out of his hand then I karate chopped him in the throat which stunned him after that I kick sweep him off his leg and finished him with an axe kick to the stomach. The last one appeared to be a girl but that doesn't mean I’m going easy on her, she already has out her revolver and knife and tries to stab me but I back away and kick the knife out of her hands (damn everyone is getting disarmed today, man I am on a roll) then she tries hit me with her gun but I grab her arm and throw her on the ground and keep her in a spinal lock. “Where the other one there is four of you and I only see three.” I say “Go fuck yourselves.” She responds which only makes me put a tighter hold increasing the pain. “Where is your other comrade?” I say in a more intimidating tone. “Don’t make me have to do something you'll regret.” “(Sigh) He’s inside the castle with Nightmare Moon, that’s all I know we were just given order to guard outside.” “See was that so hard.” I say then Vulcan neck pinch her letting fall unconscious. After that throw down I see the girls coming out of the bush. They all seem surprise at what I’m capable of but what they expect I’m not going to ask them to move nicely do I look like a girl scout. Just then Rainbow Dash flies towards me and says, “That...was...AWESOME!!!!” She has this face that in a way look kinda adorable.” Where did you learn to fight like that?” “That’s not important right now, but I think I know where your elements are we need to get inside.” I open the door to find a statue with these stone orb’s all of us look in awe then Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash decide to take the orb’s down once they got all of them Twilight started do her magic thing. To be honest I still can’t believe magic exist but for now I’m just going to go with the flow because I don’t know jack. “Well I’m going to look for the last soldier later.” I say then walk out. “What you’re leaving us here aren't you going to stay and help.” Rarity say’s “Help and do what use the magic I don’t have or how about I let the Paradox escape and kill everyone else.” I reply then walk out though the next door. I walk through a this corridor for about ten minute and I’m already tired of it the same old bricks and damaged pictures almost feel like I’m going in circle but I made a mark on one of the wall’s which I don’t see any more so that mean I’m heading somewhere. Just then I hear a gunshot and glass shatter, looks like I found my target. Following the sound I came up to a wooden door, slowly and silently opening up I cautiously walk inside to find the room empty. “But that can’t be unless he's behin…” My train thought was cut off by a force being pushed toward my back sending me flying to the ground. “So you're the legendary Blaze the one that slayed the unstoppable Saint and insane Decker.” A voice say’s behind. I see the last Paradox soldier but something different about him he’s wearing his standard black and grey Paradox fatigues but it’s his eyes are black and filled with complete darkness. Next to him is a black mare she in light blue armor like the princess she has a horn and wings but even with those extra appendages I can sense her evil. “Who are you two?” I ask.” You don’t seem like the others.” “I have to go and dispose of those annoying ponies take care of our guest please.” The mare say’s completely ignoring my question then vanishes in a white light. “Well look like it’s just you and me Blaze.” He say’s then pulls out his two knives. “And before I kill you I might as well tell you my name it’s Delta 42.” Delta 42 dashes at a quick speed but I manage to draw my tomahawk and knife. He starts with some slashes which were pretty fast I was lucky enough to dodge and block them all, I then attacked with my own slashes with my tomahawk he dodge them like they were nothing. “How does he make it look so easy it like he just enhanced his body with some kind of super serum?” I think to myself, then he kicks me in the rib the pain is sharp I think it’s broken I also think he might of hit an organ to because I’m coughing up a little bit of blood but I need to push through anyways I fly towards the wall slamming into my back. “Aww did I break your wittle rib Blazy?” He said in a mocking tone. “Thank to Nightmare Moon my abilities are superior to any human.” “What (cough) do you mean thanks to Nightmare Moon?” I ask as I wipe the blood from my mouth and weakly stand up. “When we arrive in this dimension we bumped right into her, she saw potential in us and told us that if we join her we can have all the power and riches that we desire, I agreed as you can see, and since I am the leader she gave me this power in exchange for my knowledge of battle and her allegiance everything I know she knows it’s almost like were the same person but enough about that TIME TO DIE!!!!!!” He yell’s then lunges at me. Time slows down everything around me moved almost at a standstill a I can think is ‘what do I do’, just then an idea pops into my head I ready don’t want do it but I can’t think straight the pain is making me not think straight so let’s do this time comes back to normal as Delta 42 is just inches away, I do a split dodging his knives and then punching in the groin. “AHHHHHHOOHOOHOHOO!!!!!” He howls out in agonizing pain grabbing his crotch and falling on his knees. “You bastard that was a cheap shot” “A cheap shot that is going to stop you from killing me.” Then jump up and axe kick him making his face slam into the ground and knocking him out. ”Thank you Mortal Combat.” I look at the now unconscious Delta 42 I decided to cuff him up to a nearby pillar. When I’m done I see that same white light flash and Nightmare Moon appears but she not alone, Twilight is there and it looks like she’s started to fight her I can see some bruise and she look exhausted, so if Delta 42 is telling the truth then Twilight is as dead as that avatar movie in the 21st century. “Wait why should I worry for Twilight she’s a thorn in my side since I got here?” I think to myself but my conscience tell me, “Because it’s the right thing to do.” And my conscience is right dammit oh well better go and help. “So it looks like the one known as Delta 42 failed me I presume to bad he was such a warrior probably a good mate too bad, well it’s time to die.” Nightmare Moon say’s in the most sinister voice. “(Huff) Blaze (Huff)?” Twilight manages to say. “Thought you might need some help.” I reply “Stay here and see if you can get those elements to work.” “How did you know do I didn't get the element to work?” “Well she’s still here. ”As I point to Nightmare Moon.” So that means that it didn't work, just get it to work will yah that won’t be too hard.” Then I stand up and walk toward Nightmare Moon, stopping and giving her a serious look.” I’m your new opponent lets fight right now.” “So be it, it doesn't matter who I fight you all will die and the night will last forever.” Nightmare Moon replies. “Are you ready?” “Let’s do this.” I say then crack my knuckles. As I do that Nightmare Moon shot an energy blast at me but I dodge it, but she shoots more of them I simple dodge those doing back flips, front flips, and rolls. “I can the she getting frustrated by not finally hitting so I’ll use it to my advantage.” I think to myself. “It’s proven that your I.Q decreases when you're frustrated or upset.” Nightmare Moon fire an extremely powerful energy blast this one is huge but I'm still able to dodge it so I roll out of the way and pull out my Phoenix tomahawk and combat knife then I got into my combat stance and said; "Is that the best you got, Nightmare Moon? A blind person would make a better shot than you." Nightmare Moon growled at him and said; "You pathetic mortal, you haven't seen what I'm capable of!" "I'm no pathetic mortal; my name is Captain Mike McKay aka The Blaze leader of the Fire Wolves." I reply "Man I can't believe this is happening, and just think a few hours ago I was on Earth." I rush at her and swing my tomahawk, instantly she jumps back but I manage to get a cut on her cheek. “Raaagh you little foal I will get you for that, I am a goddess no one can beat me!!” she yell. “Well I got news for you Nightmare gods don’t bleed.” I reply “So you're no god.” “Ahhhh I hate you.” She yell then rushes me with her sharp nails and start to scratch all over, I manage to dodge most of them but that final blow caught me. Her nails were super strong that it tore up my vest, jacket, and skin. The vest was destroyed beyond repair but the jacket and my skin had claw marks but still intact to wear. I just threw the remains of my vest on the ground and returned to my combat stance only to find Nightmare Moon laughing. “What’s so funny?” I ask “Have you lost it or something.” “Oh I guess you don’t feel it.’ She replies. “Feel what?” “You see those cuts you have on your chest?” I nod ‘Well my nails have manticore poison in them which means that as we speak your body is failing on itself, your organs will stop working and you will pass out then die.” “What!!!” I yell ”That can’t be.” Even now I start to feel my body weakening. “Face it you lose.” “Damn I can't hold this up for long but I’ll use every last bit of energy I have left.” I think to myself then rest of the girl coming up which breaks my train of thought. “Blaze I found out how you use the element’s!!!!” Twilight yells at me. “(Huff) that’s (Huff) great (Huff). I say feeling weaker at every second. “Use it!!!”Then I dash with all my might and hold Nightmare Moon down so she can’t move. “What are you doing let go of me!!!!” She yell. “GIRLS NOW!!!” I yell my vision is extremely blurry so all I can see are Rainbows then I feel the rainbow go right through me shoot me into a wall then I fall unconscious. Twilights Perspective With all that energy I used I passed out as I woke up I see a tiara with my cutie mark on it. “Am I a princess?” Is the first thing I thought “Nah that never going to happen oh my Celestia we did it me and the girls did it, we actually stopped Nightmare Moon.” I see that all the girls have necklaces of their cutie mar and I also see that Rarity’s tail is back. Just then Applejack come up to and tell me; “Gee, Twilight! I thought you were just spoutin' a lot of hooey, but I reckon we really do represent the elements of friendship. ” “Indeed you do.” say’s a familiar voice. I turn around to see Princess Celestia standing there smiling. “Princess Celestia!!!!” I yell then run to hug her. “Twilight I knew you could do it.” “But you told me it was an old pony’s tale.” “I told you to make some friends nothing more I saw the signs of Nightmare Moons return and knew it was you who had the magic inside to defeat her, but you could not unleash it until you let true friendship into your heart.” She explains to me. “Now if only another will as well. Princess Luna!” The alicorn mare know a Princess Luna jumps a little I guess she still scared of what just happened then Princess Celestia say’s, ”It has been a thousand years since I have seen you like this. Time to put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, little sister.” Wait sister I did not see that one coming well buck. And it looks like everyone in the room is just as surprised as I am. Luna look down for a bit then starts crying. “Will you accept my friendship?” Princess Celestia asks as she reached out her hand. Prince Luna grabs Princess Celestia hand and hugs her tightly and say’s, “I’m so sorry! I missed you so much, big sister!” “I missed you too Luna.” Celestia replied as she also cry with tears of joy. This is such a touching moment I almost want it to last forever. But then Blaze comes out of the rubble getting everyone attention he’s clutch his chest and he looks pretty banged up I should help him wait why do I even care he’s been a pain in my flanks since I have met him plus he ruined a touching moment. Blaze Perspective I awake to find myself covered in rubble I still feel extremely weak but I need to get out or else I’ll suffocate so crawl out my chest in so much pain but I need to keep going. As I make it out I see the girls, their Princess, and a smaller unicorn pegasus in the room looking at me they all have tear in their eye’s but are smiling so I say; "Great every turn out great so I’m going to pass out now, good bye feeling in my body.” Then I drop on the ground and blackness takes me. > Confrontation and possible new friends > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Princess Celestia’s Perspective Three day after the Summer Sun Celebration As I walked through the castle hallway I could help but feel so happy. My sister came back after one thousand years of exile, my faithful student made friends and now has a social life, and Equestria has a new defense the Elements of Harmony. This just couldn't get any better but then there those creatures that came from another world. “I wonder how they will respond to being here in Equestria." I think to myself. ”I wonder if they are even friendly, but this can wait I need to get to my cake stash before morning court.” As I start making my way down I hear running then yelling as the yelling gets louder and louder the more curious I am as it get closer I ready myself for what approaching but all I saw was a brown blur then I felt the wind get knocked straight out of me making me drop to my knees and vomit up my remaining breakfast. The pain was so unbearable that I think one my ovaries exploded so I passed out for a while just to let the pain ease. Canterlot Doctor Patches Perspective a few minutes before the accident. As I sit in my office sipping on a cup of Joe I think to myself how do I wish for more action in my life? The same old routine greet the patients check to make sure that things run smoothly, which they do because no one really gets that hurt here. The only new thing that happened are those new creatures in special care, but there all unconscious so it’s not like I can speak with them about their anatomy. Speaking of those creatures I wonder if the nurse put restraints on the one with manticore poison. As I’m thinking about this Nurse Stitches come in my office. “Nurse Stitches.” I say. “Yes Doctor Patches.” She replies in her usual cheery tone. “Did you happen to put restraints on our manticore special patient?” “Um no I thought it might be uncomfortable on it so I took them off.” Upon hearing this I spat out my coffee and my heart is racing at a speed that is unreal get out my chair throw on my coat and start to run toward the intensive care unit. “Nurse it needs those restrains when a victim gets manticore poisoning they can suffer an unfortunate fate but if you're lucky enough to survive your body will be in the most unimaginable pain and you will suffer from extremely terrifying hallucination.” I say. “Oh dear that’s horrible.” she replies. “Yes but that’s not all the victim will also be in a uncontrollable rage that is nearly unstoppable unless you restrain them that is why we need to hurry before it wakes up.” As I make it towards the door I’m praying to Celestia that I’m not late. I open the door to find the creature still unconscious while the nurse and I get ready to strap the other arm down I see the creature eye shoot wide open. “Restrain the patient!!!” I yell but I was cut off by the creature head butting me to the face. “Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!” It yell’s out then bolts out the door. “Where do you think it will go?” The nurse asks me.’ “Your guess is as good as mine nurse.” I reply while clutching my bleeding nose. “We need to get a straitjacket and some tranquilizer darts.” Mike’s Perspective a few minutes before the accident Darkness that all I see, just total darkness and me in the middle of it all just then I see a small light that gets bigger and bigger, but the bigger it gets the more my heat my body feel soon enough the light is closer and my body feels like it’s on fire I can’t take it anymore I wake up with the same heat on my body and everything look likes fire the first thing I hear is, “Restrain the patient!!!” I heard before I cut them off by slamming my head into their face. The pain is so unbearable that I’m yelling in agonizing pain both the burning and my face, so I ran out the door. To be honest I never thought I could even run this fast as I continue my run see something it looks like a demon version of Decker and he’s laughing at me mocking me. I suddenly feel this rage inside of me and I punch him with all my anger and hatred as when my fist makes contact he demon Decker dissipates into black smoke. I continue to run my hand start to hurt so much that the pain is unbearable all of a sudden then my whole body go numb and I drop to my knees the fire I my eyesight clears up and I see myself in a hallway It see a bit fancy for my though, there are statues and paintings of ponies they must be important or something. All of a sudden I find myself in a straitjacket with five tranquilizer darts in both my legs. “W...where am I?” I ask aloud. “You're in Canterlot Castle.” A voice says behind me. I turn around to see a white pony in gold and purple armor. He’s about my height but taller by a few inches and his hair is straight and blue with a light blue streak in the middle, now I know what you're thinking how do I know what his hair looks like well he didn’t have his helmet on he looks pissed at me for some reason but I guess it doesn’t matter right now because there are more thing to worry about like his sword against my throat. “Whoa dude chill out I don’t have any beef with you.” I say, I’m a little surprised that I can talk right now I thought the tranquilizers would paralyze and knock me out by now but I guess it must be enough for an average pony and I might need a bigger amount. “You are under arrest for the assault on Princess Celestia and will be imprison until questioning.” “You know if my body wasn’t paralyzed right now I would have totally disarmed you right now.” “Shut up!!!” He yelled then looks over to two guards.” You two take the prisoner into the interrogation room.” “Right away Captain Shining Armor.” They say simultaneously the grab me by my arms and start to drag me away. The two guards drag me through the castle I basically see doors statues and paintings. Then we stop at a metal door they open it then throw me in. But this time the feeling in my legs returned so I can walk again but it’s not like I have anywhere to go all that is in this room is a two chairs and a table. I decide to take a seat and wait but after an hour I become bored and decide to get out the straitjacket. Sadly I didn’t have anything sharp so it was going to be a while. I look at myself and I see that I don't have a shirt on just a large bandage wrapped around my chest, some hospital pants, and no shoes.” “You're not going to get out of that its enchanted not even a manticore could get out of that.” A familiar voice said, it was that captain from before Captain Shining Armor. “Oh it’s you, so what’s it going to be death by….” I was cut off by him punching me in the face. “Shut up, now tell me what your mission who sent you is!?!?” He yell in my face “Ha you hit like a malnourished vegetarian.” I reply then spit out the blood in my mouth. “Raaagh shut up!!!” He yells then flips the table between us. “What is your mission and who sent you?!?!” “.....” “Oh now you're giving me the silent treatment, well it won't take long to break you.” He says with a smirk on his face. Five hours later Shining Armor Perspective. “Damnit I can’t get him to talk!!!!” I say in a frustrated tone to the Princesses which was Celestia, Luna, and my old friend Candace. I haven’t seen her in a while but she is looking beautiful as ever with her smooth pink coat and her pink, purple and yellow mane. She has a cute set of B-cups and has amazing hips. She was wearing casual clothes which consisted of a pink hoodie, blue jeans, and white sneakers. But as we stand in the viewing room I can see that wretched creature it’s almost like he’s looking through the tinted glass and at me with this smile that tells me he is mocking me. “We saw Captain he seem to be a professional at this.” Celestia says as she is still clutching her bandaged stomach. “So do you have any other methods?” “No he resisted every method I could think of he won’t say who is or what is nothing.” I reply. “May I try?” Candace says. Which surprises everyone. “With all due respect my lady it would be too dangerous for you to go in there that creature is dangerous, you did see what he did to your aunt did you.” “Well then I’ll just have to have the big strong captain of the royal guard to protect me won’t I?” She tells me then walks into the room. I look over to the other Princess and they just nod their heads. “Just do your best Captain now if you will excuse us me and my sister have a meeting to go to.” Princess Celestia says then the two walk out the room. “(Sigh) as you wish Princess.” I say then follow Candace. Princess Candace Perspective As I walk in the interrogation room I see the creature sitting in the chair with a neutral expression on his face then turns into a smile. “So they either sent you to rough me up more or seduce. And right now the seducing option is working.” It say’s I can't help but blush at it's comment. “Silence you that is no way to talk to the princess.” Shining Armor tell it then is about to punch him again. “Stop Captain.” I say. “But it disrespected you Princess I just…”I raise my and to cut him off. “Instead of showing brute force and violence let’s start with love and kindness.” I say then undo the strap on his straitjacket letting his arms loose it starts to stretch his arms but winches at the pain in his right hand. “Oh my you seem to have broken you’re a hand here let me heal your hand” I say then use my magic to restore the bones. “Wow thank you.” It replies as he examines it hand. “I guess I owe you an explanation um... what’s your name?” “You don’t have to talk right now if you don’t want to and it’s Candace.” I reply. He then sits there with a serious face all of a sudden I hear this loud growl I see that the creature is clutching its stomach he must be hungry. “I’ll tell you what you get me some grilled cheese sandwiches thirteen to be exact and tomato soup and I’ll tell you some information about myself do we have a deal?” It says. “Okay deal, Captain Armor please go to the kitchen and tell the cook to make thirteen grill cheese sandwiches and a big bowl of tomato soup.” “But Princess Candace you do not expect me to leave you here with that.” Shining Armor say’s as he points at the creature. “That an order Captain.” I say sternly. “(Sigh) as you wish your highness.” He say’s then walks out of the room I can hear the worry in voice but I need to gain this creatures trust. “You know he’s only doing his job if I were in his place I’d probably doing the same if I were in his shoes.” The creatures said. “Also I can tell he has a thing for you.” “Wha… what no me and him are just friends.” I reply as I feel a blush come on my face. “He is I can tell by the way he looks at you not to mention when I made that seducing comment he made quite an outburst.” “Well what are you saying?” “Just give him a chance.” “I’ll give it a try thank you...” “Blaze, call me Blaze.” Just then Shining Armor came back with the food he set it down on the table. Then I told them to leave us he was hesitant at first but eventually left. Blaze started to eat like there was no tomorrow it must have been the fact that he hasn’t eaten in three days. After he was finish he gave a relieve sigh, “That was great it feels like I haven’t eaten in days.” Blaze tells me. “Actually you haven't eaten in three days.” “Get out of town really.” “Yes we didn’t know what to feed you so we let you just rest and hope that you didn’t starve.” “Yeah well I have be trained to go without food for weeks and still feel energized. So I guess you guy’s made the right call.” “So I have to ask what you are.” “Well I’m a male human.” “A human what’s that?” "Well some say that we are evolved monkey people others say we came from a superior being honestly I could care less.” “So you were trained, what kind of profession did you before you came here.” “Well I used to be a soldier I guess.” “A soldier, so you're like Captain Armor?” “Oh no he’s a guard that just enforces the law, I on the other hand fight for my country or countries in my case.” “Countries, you fight for more than one country?” “More like the world, where I come from my entire world was in war with an evil military force so all the nations formed an alliance and fought back.” “How long have you been fighting?” “Well almost all my life I started training when I was five years old and my first mission was at twelve.” “What but you were just a child?” “Yeah well with soldiers dying left and right you got to get new soldiers somewhere right.” “Dying, so you’ve killed others of your kind?” “Well yes.” “Did you enjoy it?” “What do you mean?” “Do you enjoy killing?” “Well no actually hate killing but I am willing to do anything for my country even if it means to take the lives of others, I had to learn that lesson the hard way and it cost me dearly in the end.” I sat there with this unbelievable look. Killing for your country seems like a bit too much for me but he seemed like a good person and his intention were true but I could sense no love in his heart he felt cold, he pretends that it's nothing though and keeps up all these walls. We sat and talked for a few hours about each other’s species we shared a few laughs here and there Blaze is quite the storyteller I never knew that someone could use a banana to make someone drop all their stuff wait till I tell Celestia. “Well I believe you and once my aunts come back from the meeting we will discuss your time being here as for now you will be a guest in the castle a guest room and a pair of clothes will be there for you.” I say then get up and walk out. “By the way it was nice talking to you Blaze.” “Same here by the way where is my stuff like my jacket and equipment.” He said. “Well your jacket was repaired and will be given to your shortly but as for your other things they have been confiscated until further notice, can’t have you roaming the castle with possible dangerous objects we already found knives and a tomahawk we don’t know what the other metal objects are but we can't take any chances.” “Please I need my tomahawk and pistols those are very special to me.” “Pistols, what are those?” “It’s a weapon that shoots out extremely fast metal projectiles, but you see those are very special to me.” “Special, how are they special they kill things?” “The tomahawk is a gift from a close friend and the pistols are the only thing I have left of my family, please those are the only things I really need.” “I don’t know it wouldn’t be the responsible thing to do.” “Candace do you have something you hold dear to.” “Well there is this necklace my mother gave to me, why do you ask?” “What if someone took it away from you how you would feel?” “I guess I would feel really hurt.” “It’s the same with my tomahawk and pistols.” “(Sigh) I...I guess I can let this slide but please promise me that you will not hurt anypony.” “I promise and I always keep my promises but if someone attack me and I have no choice then and only then will I use my weapons.” “Alright, now Captain Shining Armor will take you to your quarters.” I get up and walk out the door I see Shining Armor standing outside the hallway, he see me and runs over. “Princess Candace are you alright is there anything I can do for you?” He asked me. “Shining you can just call me Candace you realize we have be friends for year’s right and yes there is something you can do for me, I need you to take Blaze to one of the bedrooms in the castle.” I reply. “What, why isn’t he a criminal he did assault Princess Celestia?” “He did but I learned from of the doctors that it was a side effect from the poison so all charges were dropped anyway just escort him there and you can continue your day.” “Yes Princess uh I mean Candace.” He said then saluted then walk to the interrogation room. Just then a thought ran through my head, it was the advice Blaze told me ‘Just give him a chance’ I thought about it and decided to give it a shot. “Hey Shining Armor.” “Uh yeah Candace.” “I was wondering if you wanted to hang out sometime maybe this weekend if you're not busy.” “Um sure how about Saturday we could go to the movies.” “Great sounds like a plan how about we meet up at noon.” “Huh that went better that I thought.” I think to myself then walk to Celestia to report in. Blaze’s Perspective As Candace walks out I get up and follow out I wonder if where she went off to. Just then I see Shining Armor and he has this stupid smile on his face, she totally asked him out, he then snaps out of his stupor and looks at me. “The Princess has instructed me to escort you to one of the bed chambers so follow me and keep up.” He says. “Lead the way.” I say then lazily salute. We reach to a big door then Shining Armor opens the door and we both go inside the room its big also there's a huge flat screen on the wall, a gigantic bed, a kitchen, and a bathroom it was like being in a five star hotel. “So this is where you will be staying for now or until Celestia knows what to do with you, there are some clothes on the bed and if you need anything just call on the phone.” Shining Armor tells me then walk towards the door he stop.” Oh and please don’t come out of the room its bad enough that the news ponies are swarming the castle about Princess Luna’s return.” “Sure thing chief.” I say in a joking tone, he just looks at me then sighs and walks out the door. “Well that could have gone better.” I walk around inspecting the room a little more and to my surprised I found a balcony which had an amazing view of the city. There were buildings everywhere but the sky was blue and clear well with a few of those flying ponies here and there. I then something smelled funky, I took a moment to realize that it’s me I wonder if the nurses even decided to give me a bath while I was out ? It doesn’t even matter now anyways I go into the bathroom, I see and large tub well more like a hot tub when I think about it also there’s a shower that’s looks like if could fit four people, then there was the average bathroom things like a toilet, sink, and mirror. I strip off my clothes and bandages ,the wound seemed to heal up ok, and hop into the shower. I then turn on the water it feels refreshing to have the water pour on my skin I see that there are some body soaps and shampoos in there there’s tropical breeze ,lavender, and fruity splash I chose the tropical breeze and scrubbed body all over then my head after the shower I came back to the bedroom in a towel, I found a grey t-shirt, some dark blue jean, black boxers, my dog tags, and a pair of black sneakers on the bed also my Fire Wolves hoodie and some of my gear like my pistols, the holsters, my Phoenix tomahawk, and combat knife. I put everything on except my jacket and gear and then lay down on the bed. “I wonder what I should do.” I say to myself. Then I look at the flat screen I take the remote and turn it on. I was watching T.V for three hours most of the shows here are like the ones on earth but only ponified. After finish watching another episode of the Power Ponies Spd I see a guard come inside. “Princess Celestia wishes to see you right now.” He tells me. “Well I guess I don’t have a choice do I?” I say then throw on my jacket but leave zipper down. We arrive to a huge room with two thrones in the middle, Celestia sitting in one and a blue alicorn as Candace told me sitting in the other. She had a neutral expression on her face which gave me an uneasy feeling. “So you are the one called Blaze?” Celestia said, “Uh yes so why have summon me have I done something, if this is about punching you in the gut it wasn’t intentional just a misunderstanding.” I reply. “No it’s not about that you see, Candace has reported on what her plans are for you she said that you are live peacefully here on Equestria.” “Whoa hold on one minute can't you just send me back and save yourself the trouble?” "I guess you don't know." "Don't Know what?" "A few thousands of years ago evil mages would cause havoc in our land and when we had the upper hand they would retreat to other dimensions like yours, I was extremely frustrated so I put a barrier that blocked off anyone from leaving this dimension." "So what you're saying is once I come in I can never get out." "Precisely." "Oh, alright I'm probably dead in my other world anyways so no one is going to notice." “Well now that that's out of the way I will discuss your living arrangements you won stay here because the news ponies have been swarming around my castle so much that it’s hard to take a simple bubble bath, but that’s beside the point you see I have decided to send you a back to Ponyville because Canterlot as too much news feed from my sister’s return.” “Sister’s return?” I say. “Yes Princess Luna, you helped freed her from Nightmare Moon don't you remember?” “Freed her...?” Then the gears start to turn in my head. “Wait you’re... Her… what?!” “Yes I used to be Nightmare Moon but thanks to you and the Elements of Harmony I’m free so I thank you.” Luna tells me. ”Also it seems that when you and I were hit by the element some of your personality came apart of my like how the way you speak and not the Canterlot voice.” “Uh ok that’s kinda creepy but anyways, who will I be staying with or do you have a house for me?” I say then cross my arms. “The house will have to wait for now I’m just too busy to deal with things here so once you get to Ponyville the Elements will have it sorted out.” Celestia tells me. “Oh ok I guess I can live with that.” “Speaking of living you should know Equestria does not tolerate murder we haven’t had one in ages so no killing or you be severely punished.” “I won’t kill unless anyone wants to kill me so you have nothing to worry about.” “I should hope so do not make me regret having Candace do this she has been quite interested in you.” “Well then let’s not disappoint her.” The next day I was escorted out of the castle putting my hood and mask on. With some of my gear on I feel less exposed some of the ponies give me weird look but I just shrug it off. The camera were flashing in my eyes left and right it was like walking in a room full of exploding flash bangs but I finally made it out walked around the town seeing all the ponies doing their things and not having a single care in the world this is how peace must feel like. I make it to the train station get my ticket then heard to the train it’s a bit old school for my taste but I wasn’t complaining, I sit down and wait for the train to start then a pony sits next to me from what I can tell their female. She has charcoal fur, black straight mane she’s around 5’5 and has quite the B-cup breasts she also had a curvy body. She wore a black sweater and white dress pants with black heels. She also looks extremely pissed off grumbling about something. “The nerve of that mare who does she think she is taking my spot in the music awards.” She says then look over to me. “Oh I’m sorry here I am going on about my problem you must be annoyed with me and my problems.” “Nah its ok.” I reply then put my hand out. “The name is Blaze pleasure to meet you.” “Octavia like wise.” She tells me then shakes my hand. “So what’s got you so upset Octavia you look like you could flip twenty tables right now.” “Well you see I was practicing for the Canterlot music awards, I practiced so hard every day then a producer saw my talent I gave me opportunity to perform for the music awards.” “Well that’s sounds good.” “Yeah it was until the last day before the awards, he came to my hotel room and told me that I was being replaced by some disc jockey apparently the viewers want more new age music, I was so furious I deck him in the face.” “Wow that must have sucked good thing you didn’t go out without a bang huh?” “I guess but I’m still hurt about it though I practiced so hard and all for nothing.” “Well I would say nothing.” “Huh what do you mean?” “Ok look at it like this you may not have gotten the chance perform but you did improve your skill and there might be something bigger in store for you.” “I never saw it like that, you really know how to see the positive in saddest times Blaze thank you.” “No problem.” The train ride was pretty alright since Octavia was there to keep my company I learned so much about from her like what instrument she plays, it’s called the cello it’s kinda like a huge violin but of course she slapped me over the head telling me it’s not but whatever I also learned that she used to be a martial artist and was a damn good one to but decided to take a full time in music saying something like it was her destiny to play it. What was hours felt like minutes cause the train had finally stopped I reached Ponyville. I got out of the train with Octavia, apparently she lives in Ponyville, and so we arrived at the exit of the train station Octavia said, “Well it was nice meeting you Blaze I hope we can hang out sometime hey if you have a cell phone maybe we could exchange numbers.” “Sure.” She writes her number down and hands it to me surprisingly they have English as their writing style so I could understand. I transfer all the data to my hawk eye and give her my number back. “Well good-bye Blaze I hope to see you soon.” She tell me then walks away. “Bye.” I say while waving my hand. When she was out of my sight I decided to wait I sat down on a bench and started to look at the sky just thinking about what’s happening here. So I’m in a world full of humanoid colourful ponies with no other humans except those Paradox which I probably won’t see because if I do I will have to kill them, great on a bright note at least I’m making friends, sort of. As I was thinking a shadow peers over me I look over to see it’s the same lavender unicorn from three days ago and boy did she looked pissed along with her was her five friends. “Twibright wasn’t it.” I say. “It’s Twilight!” She says in an angered tone. “When the Princess said a special guest was coming this is not what I expected.” “Oh come on Twi he ain’t all that bad let’s just give him a chance.” Applejack says. “Yeah beside we need to throw the P.A.R.T.Y for him.” Pinkie Pie adds on. “You do realize I can spell Pinkie Pie?” I say. “Oh so you remember her name right!?!” Twilight say in an annoyed tone. “Yes only the people I feel like remembering.” I reply. “Now let’s get to business where am I staying?” “Um well about that yah see we haven’t really decided yet.” Applejack said then gave a nervous chuckle. “Well that’s alright I’m mean having to decide who get some unknown creature to stay in their house for who know how long is a tough decision. “ I tell her then give a small smile. “Why don’t you decide?” Pinkie Pie suggests. “Hey that’s not a bad idea.” Applejack adds on. “Hehe Pinkie Pie came up with an idea now wonder I’m seeing crazy critters today.” “Well ok it’s worth a try.” I say then I start to think. ”Hmm let’s see If I pick Twilight there is a possibility that there will constant arguing on the other hand it would be so fun just to piss her off, then there’s Rarity I’m sure she we don’t match she probably to neat for my taste about things and have me constantly dressing up which I hate then again I might need new clothes and rooming with her could give me that advantage, but then there Fluttershy she a bit too quiet for me and we might end up having to many awkward silences but on the other hand she is super nice out of the rest. From what I heard Rainbow Dash lives in clouds so that’s just a no, Pinkie Pie well she so hyper I might not be able to keep up with her and she might drive me nuts with that chain gun mouth of hers then again she is a baker so I wouldn’t have to worry about food, lastly there’s Applejack she looks like the no privacy kinda gal which I might need if I’m to be here but she does run a farm which will keep me in shape. Damn so many good option and so many bad factor to choose from.” “Hey yah Blaze have yah decided?” Applejack askes me. “Uh I choose…” > Touring the town and getting adjusted > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Blaze looked over to Twilight and gave a mischievous grin no one caught on except Twilight who gave a fearful look on her face. “I think I know who I’m going to pick.” He said while giving a small grin. “Really who huh huh huh?!?” Pinkie Pie ask while getting into Blazes face. “Well Pinkie you were going to be my first choice but I think I’ll go with Twibright.” “It’s Twilight.” She responded with a hint of venom in her voice. “Besides why not anyone else.” “Now Twilight it’s not lady like to reject someone who is in need of assistance, if he feels the need to stay with you then you should accept.” Rarity said then whispered. “Oh when you get the chance tell me how he looks under those clothes of his like his chest and buttocks perhaps. Twilight could only give a frustrated groan at how this day was starting to become, not only is she going to have to share a house with the one being in the entire universe she despise, she also found out how much of a pervert Rarity is. “Well now that that’s over with how about a tour of the town Blaze.” Rainbow Dash said. “Sure, I guess that’s ok.” He replied. Blaze was walking down the streets with the six mares most of the buildings looked the same only some were taller than others and some had different shapes the roads were gravel he saw so many colored ponies and with each one he made eye contact with they would look away or give him an uncomfortable look. He knew that he was different so he couldn't really complain. “So I’m guessing your town doesn't see other creatures often?” “Well not exactly.” Applejack replied. “How about we show you the park, it’s a great place to make friends well there and Sugarcube Corner.” Pinkie Pie suggested. “Yeah I’m going to have to agree with Pinkie on that on plus it would give me a chance to show off my flying moves.” Rainbow Dash added in. “Well then ah guess it’s decided we’ll head to the park.” Applejack said and with that the group headed to the park. Blaze’s Perspective Oh my god the park was so beautiful there was lush grass and the trees had so much life and color I started wondering what fertilizer they were using, wait why the hell am I talking about fertilizer, they had lake with fish swimming and the water was so clear. Man this place is way different than the park we had back home where everything was in a camouflaged dome so the Paradox wouldn't bomb the hell out of it. As we walked I couldn't helped but feel as though I was being watch But seeing as this place doesn't have many threats I decided not to make a big deal out of it but that doesn't mean I won’t be cautious. “Blaze are you ok?” Fluttershy asked in a worried tone. “Uh yeah, I’m fine your park just left me breathless that all.” I lied. “Don’t you have park like these back where you’re from?” She asked me “Well not exactly most of my planet is damaged from the war so lots of places were left damage unlivable, and that’s why most of the cities are domed cities.” “Couldn't you repair and rebuild?” “Well we tried but every time we tried our builders would get killed by Paradox soldiers and bandits so we gave up on the idea until we won the war.” After the park Pinkie Pie said something about having to get her cannon her reloaded and left, honestly I will never understand that mare. We continued the tour through town I got to meet some of the town’s resident most of them were actually nice to me while others were a bit hesitant at first but I could really get angry they had the right to be scared or even terrified of me. After playing tourist it started to get dark and I started to feel hungry I was going to ask if they knew any good food joints around here but my stomach beat me to it by growling. “Well ah guess somepony is hungry.” Applejack said. “Hehe that obvious huh?” I reply while rubbing the back of my head. “Well your gut was roaring like a manticore how could we not notice.” Rainbow Dash added in. “Well we could head to Sugarcube Corner.” Rarity suggested. “What’s Sugarcube Corner?” I asked. “You’ll just hafta see for yah self sugarcube.” Applejack tells me then walks off followed by the rest of the mares. Sugarcube Corner wasn't a far walk we reached there in about 2 minutes. The entire place looked like a tsunami of candies, cookies and others sweet just washed up only on this specific area. “I wonder if it taste anything of how it look?” I thought to myself. So I stuck my tongue out and quickly licked it without anybody seeing me, it did not taste anything like sweets just concrete and paint how disappointing. As we made it inside it was really dark and quiet which kinda made me feel uneasy, that is until the lights came on I heard, “SURPRISE!!!!!” I know I’m supposed to be surprised but when you been on as many missions as I have and being ambushed constantly you tend not to feel anything, but from the looks of it seemed to be a party there was food, drinks, games, and music, not to mention the entire place had steamers, confetti and balloons everywhere. Just then Pinkie Pie came up to my face I could smell the sweets from her breath and said, “Were you surprised huh huh huh?” “Uh, I sure was Pinkie you got me good.” I lied, I felt kinda bad about telling her that her surprise didn't make me jump but what she doesn't know won’t hurt her. I decided to head to the refreshments table and get some food until I felt I was being followed but I ignored it again. I got to the table and everything looked good well except the hay mini tacos. I grabbed a cookie, three spring rolls, a slice of coconut cake, and mug of cider then sat down at one of the tables and started to eat I could hear some sighs of relief it’s probably because they saw me eat the food and know I won’t eat them. As I’m done with my food I move over to the cider taking a sip, it taste just apple cider so I just chug it down. “Whoa there buddy yer going to get drunk if yah keep drink like that.” Applejack said then took a seat in front me. “Really, I don’t taste any alcohol, all I taste is apple cider.” I reply, upon hearing this her jaw dropped. “That there is one of the strongest batches of cider ah ever made, it could knock over a full grown stallion if he chugged t down like how you did there.” “Well as you can see I’m not a stallion and ponies must be light drinkers.” “Wha… what I’ll have you know I can handle alcohol.” “Then you've had Vodka.” “Vodka, what’s that?” “Let’s just say that shit will burn your insides and knock you out if you don’t have experience with it.” “Well do you have any on yah?” “Uh I don’t think I do.” I say then check my pockets by instinct, randomly I manage to find my vodka flask that Rafik gave to me to help with the night terrors I’ve been having recently luckily its full. To be honest drinking doesn't solve my problem but it does ease the pain. “Here try this.” I say then pour a little in her cup. She was a little hesitant but drank it, once it made contact with the inside of her mouth her eyes widen so much I swore they were going to explode, she then spat it out instantly while falling over her chair. “What in the name of Celestia’s garden hoe is that stuff it almost set my mouth on fire!?” She yell at me. “That is Vodka my furry compadre.” I reply then take a swift chug of it, it burns but not as much as it used to before it used to set my mouth on fire but with all the killing and battles it’s almost like a stress reliever. “Guess what it’s made of.” “What?” “Potatoes.” “Get out of town.” “Nah I’m dead serious it’s potatoes.” “Well you humans have a crazy way with alcohol.” “Ha you haven’t heard of sake.” “Sake?” “I’ll talk to you about it later right now I need more food on my plate touring an entire town kinda makes you hungry.” “Okay well see yah around Blaze.” She said then got up and walked away. While she was walking her hips swayed side so side and her ass in motion it wasn't helping that her jean were hugging as well, she has a nice ass. Wait a minute why am I watching a pony’s ass that’s so wrong. Regular Perspective As Blaze went to the refreshment once again he grab the same things he had a while ago as he feel satisfied with his plate he see Rarity walking toward him. “Hello Blaze darling how are you.” She said. “Uh hi Rarity to what do I owe this pleasure?” He replied. “Oh but the pleasure is mine Blaze.” She replies. “How would you like be my first clothing line for humans.” “Uh I’m the only human Rarity, also is there really a difference we kinda wear the same clothes.” “Well I guess your right about that.” She says then puts her hand under her chin. “But you don’t have a change clothes though.” “I suppose I don’t the one thing Celestia didn't give me besides currency.” Blaze said jokingly. “Well how about this, tomorrow you come by my boutique and I will set you up with some clothes.” She said. “Then stare at that hot ass of yours.” She said under her breath. “What was that?” Blaze replied. “Oh nothing darling, I just can’t wait for tomorrow.” “Uh ok I’ll see you around.” Blaze ate his food and then started to walk around. He greeted some of the ponies they were pretty nice to him. As he was about to go get another cup of cider but then he felt those same pair of eye’s that have been staring at him for the whole day. “This is getting annoying.” He thought to himself. He then started to pick up his pace slid into a corner. As he hid into the corner his pursuer finally caught up, the pursuer was female she was wearing some blue shorts, which hugged her butt very nicely, a mint green hoodie and some grey sandals. “Where did he go?” She asked herself. Just then Blaze grabbed her arm and yanked her in the corner. She would have screamed but his hand was over her mouth. “You have about eleven seconds to answer my question or you’ll start seeing stars, one why are you following and two why are you sniffing my hand.” He told her then slowly moved his hand, he couldn't help but notice that she was grinning so hard that he swore this mare was going to explode. Just then she snapped out of her stupor and said, “Hi I’m Lyra Heartstrings I’m a musician but part time I do a little research on other species, to answer your first question I was observing you I had heard of the rumors of a new species in Ponyville I couldn't give up the chance of not meeting you, now for your second question I was smelling your hand I want to know if there is difference.” “Okay that's kinda creepy.” He replied. “Oh no I’m sorry I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.” She said while looking embarrass then said to herself. “Lyra you’re so stupid your first day of meeting a new species and you embarrass yourself.” She then proceed by knocking herself in the head then fell on her knees and started to weep, Blaze couldn't help but feel sorry for her. “I know I’m probably going to regret this later but would you like to sit and talk?” Upon hearing this she got out of her sadness “Really?” “Sure why not.” He replied then pulled her up. The two walked towards an empty table then sat down. Lyra having a hyper active smile, Blaze could help but her a squeaking noise come out of her but decided he really didn't want to know. “So what do you want to know?” Blaze asked. “Well what are you for starters what are you?” She replied. “I am a human male I don’t know the origins of my species some say we came from monkeys others say we came from a superior being.” “Alright now you said that you were male so I’m guessing that there are females and that means that you have genitals am I right?” “W…Well yeah.” “Okay next question what do you eat?” “Uh well humans are omnivorous so we eat almost anything.” “Almost anything, what don’t you eat?” “Well there’s hay and grass for starters.” Blaze replies then point towards the hay mini tacos at the refreshments table. “But hay is so good how you could not eat it?” “Look can we just get to the next question and shouldn't you be writing notes?” “Oh sorry guess I kinda ran off topic and don’t worry I have an excellent memory.” “If you say so.” “Anyways how are humans when it comes to mating?” “Wait what?!” “Yeah is there a specific ritual or anything does your species even mate?” “What… um I well I really don’t think I’m comfortable with… YAH!!!!” He yelped out as he felt something touching his crotch. ”What the hell is that for?” “What, I was just checking how a humans genitals feels, but um nice package by the way.” She replied. “Uh I think this conversation is over.” “Wait I’m sorry I promise not to touch you like that.” “(Sigh) Fine just don’t do whatever you did again.” “You mean my magic.” “Magic is just illusions and cheap pallor tricks.” “Is not, magic is very real it helps with our everyday lives.” “Heh no wonder your technology is prehistoric.” “What do you mean?” “You’re so called magic doesn't exist in your world, my people rely on science and logic.” Just as Lyra was about to respond Blaze saw a cup fly across his face. He looked in the direction and saw two stallions and Fluttershy the seem to be yelling at her about something, she then filled a cup with punch and handed to one of the stallions only to have it slapped out of her hand and fly towards Blaze but his speedy reflex caught the cup in time, the first stallion was about 6 feet and was an earth pony he had a sky blue curry mane and a black coat. He wore a white t-shirt with some grey khaki shorts and grey sneakers. The next stallion was about an inch or two shorter that the other one he was also pegasus, he had a red spiky mane and a white coat he also wore an orange vest and black jeans and white sneakers. Those two seemed like they were get too aggressive, Blaze was about to excuse himself from Lyra but she beat him to it telling him, “Its ok go ahead we can meet up later.” “Thanks Lyra I live in the Library by the way.” He said with a smile then got up and dashed towards the two stallions. Fluttershy’s Perspective Oh no I mess up really bad. I knew it was a bad idea for Pinkie Pie to leave me to serve drinks now this stallion is mad at me for accidentally spilling some on his shoes. He’s yelling at me so much and no matter how many time I say sorry he just get angrier. “Hey bitch look at me when I talk to you.” The first stallion tells me. “Yeah you better listen to Steel Puncher.” The shorter stallion adds in. “A...As I said before I’m really sorry.” I reply with tears in my eye’s I then pour him another cup of punch, only to have it slapped it out of my hands. “I don’t want your damn drink now I want so compensation for my shoes, you’re going to the backroom get on your knees and…” “Noooo!!!” I cut him off. “No? Did you just tell me no? Come with me or you’ll regret it bitch.” “Please no I don’t want to.” “That’s it this will teach you a lesson!!” he yelled then raised his hand at me getting ready to strike. Fear overtook me I couldn't move a muscle. I closed my eyes so and waited for the impact but it never came. Curious to when I was not on the floor I decided to open them, as I did I found Blaze in front of me and he had a hard grip on Steel Puncher hand. Blazes eyes were dead cold he looked at the two with a stare that could make Rainbow Dash cower in fear. Regular Perspective “Fluttershy are you alright.” Blaze asked Fluttershy in a serious tone. “I….I.” Was the only thing she could muster up. Fluttershy was still scared so by instinct she hugged Blaze. His body felt so muscular and well-toned she felt like she could stay in his embrace forever. “Hey you hairless freak stay out of this this is none of your business.” Steel Puncher said to him. “Oh it is my business, you think you can just disrespect ponies and get away with it.” Blaze replied. “Yeah I’m the best boxer in Ponyville I can take just about anypony in this place, even you monkey spawn.” “Oh monkey spawn that a new one where did you get that joke from your toilet, because it smells like shit.” “That’s it taste my fist you freak.” Steel Puncher said the swung his fist. Blaze pushed Fluttershy out of the way luckily for her she fell into a chair. Then she saw Steel Puncher punch Blaze dead in the face it was so horrible and she felt really bad for him. “Blaze took the hit for me ad all I could do was watch.” Fluttershy thought to herself “Yeah try that on for size.” Steel Puncher said while having a cocky grin. Blazes head was turned so Fluttershy nor Steel Puncher couldn’t see if he was ok, Fluttershy also noticed that everyone had their attention on them. Just then Rainbow Dash came towards Fluttershy with a concerned expression on her face. “Shy what happened are you ok?” She asked. “I…I’m fine Rainbow Dash thanks to Blaze anyway he saved me from those mean stallion.” Fluttershy replies just then Blaze turns head his face looks very scary he has this smile and say’s, “Thank you sir… may I have another.” Blaze said in a sadistic tone while wiping the blood from his lip. “What?” Steel Puncher asked. “You heard me punch me again if you have the balls to anyways.” Steel Puncher was grinning at Blazes bravery.” You know what I will.” Steel Puncher then give Blaze a quick jab to the face with his other arm. In a matter of second Blaze caught his fist. He looked Steel Puncher dead in his eyes and didn't let go of his hand. “What the let go of me freak.” Steel Puncher said. “My turn.” Blaze replied then grabbed him by the arm and threw him into a table. “Steel Puncher!!!” The other stallion yelled out. “Bastard take this.” He said the tried to punch Blaze. Blaze easily stepped out of the way then gave him an upper cut to the chin. But he wasn't done yet Blaze used his other arm to grab the stallion in mid air by the throat and slammed him into the floor causing there to be a loud Thud!! “Best boxer ha!!! More like a waste of space.” Blaze said then walked towards Fluttershy. As he started to walk towards Fluttershy Steel Puncher pulled out his knife and charged at Blaze. Blaze had seen this coming and was fully prepared, Steel Puncher tried to lunge Blaze, but Blaze was faster, he turned around then grabbed Steel Puncher by the wrist. Blaze started to crush his wrist until Steel Puncher dropped the knife then he proceeded by pulling Steel Puncher and ramming his elbow into Steel Punchers arm thus breaking it. “AAAAAHHHHH!!!!” Steel Puncher cried out as he dropped to his knee’s clutching his arm in agonizing pain. Blaze then took out his Desert Eagle and put it to Steel Punchers head. “Now I’m going to make this very easy you and your friend get the hell out of this place or else I will splatter your brains all on floor.” Steel Puncher got up then grabbed his friend are ran to the door. ”This isn't over monkey spawn I will get you back for humiliating me!!” He yelled then ran out. “I’ll be waiting.” Blaze replied. After the fight Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy walk towards Blaze. “That… was… awesome!!!! Where did you lean to fight like that you were so fast, I am serious when I say you have got to teach me how to fight like that.” Rainbow Dash said while patting Blaze on the back. “I was taught by someone who was just as hardcore as I am and no it would be irresponsible, god knows what you would use my moves for.” Blaze replied. “Anyways I think I’m going to leave ponies are starting to stare at me.” Blaze left Sugarcube Corner and started walking to the library. While on his way there he hear footsteps approaching him. Guessing if maybe Steel Puncher had called some friends to attack him he decided grab his knife by the handle just in case. Then a hand grabbed his shoulder as he turned he pulled out his knife only to find Twilight and as usual she did not look amused. “What in the name of taturaus were you thinking!!!? You go and start a fight in Sugarcube Corner then smash table are you anymore insane?” “Look Twibright they hit me first and if you get your facts right instead of being a high and mighty ass you would have known that those assholes were going to rape Fluttershy!!!” “They what?!?” She replied. “Well I didn't know but that’s beside the point you should have attacked them, you should have went for help.” “Oh and by the time I did that god knows what they could have done to her!!! You know what I’m going to bed.” Blaze said then walked away. “Don’t you walk away from me!!!” “Whatever.” The entire walk to the library was filled with constant grumbling and anger but after 10 minutes he finally made it. Opening the door with the spare key Twilight gave him he went inside. The library looked exactly how Blaze left it when he first came to Equestria the books well organized and the place completely clean. But admiring the library could wait till tomorrow sleep was calling his name and he wasn't about to give that up. He searched the library to find his room after about three minutes later he found a door that said guest on it. He opened the door to find a decent sized room with two windows which have a refreshing breeze blow in every now and then it also had a twin bed with a desk and closet. It also had a small bathroom which had a small shower and the basic bathroom things like a sink and toilet. “Hmmm cozy it’s better to what I've been in anyways.” Blaze said, he then took of his jacket kicked off his shoes then dropped on his bed. “Man I hope tomorrow will be better than today no matter where I go I end up kick someone’s ass.” He said then drifted off into sleep. > A new opportunity and a pervy designer > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike’s Dreamscape and Perspective I stand there my entire environment is just plain and blank there is nothing but pure whiteness surrounding me. I then feel a chill go down my spine and turn around only to find four figures they are too far away for me to recognize them so I start to run towards them yelling ‘stop’ and ‘wait up’. The closer I got to them the more cold I felt it was almost as if death was wrapped around me but decided to move on. As I finally caught up I stopped in my track completely frozen with mixed emotions, I felt fear and happiness at the same time it was crazy. My dead teammates Rafik, Jenny, Jason, and Alex all of them with their backs turn. “Guy’s it’s me Mike I can’t believe you’re here!” I say. “Mike?” Jason said in a cold tone then turned around with the others. “You mean the one that abandon us left us for dead and only to survive and live the cushy life.” “No that’s not true I would never abandon my comrades nor my friends stop these lies.” “Lies?” Alex said. “If we were telling lies why are we dead?” “Dead?” I replied. “Dah yes dead we are dead and soon you will join us.” Rafik said. “Wha… Jenny you believe me right?” All Jenny could do was look away she had a sorrow look on her face and had tears down her cheeks.“I loved you and you used my emotions to walk me to my grave I want nothing to do with you!” She tell yells at me with all the hatred. “We will end you.” They all say in a monotone voice as their eyes glow red.Then they rush me all at once. Alex was the first to encounter me slashing his knives at me the only thing I could do is dodge his attack since I did not want to hurt him. “Please Alex don’t do this I don’t want to hurt you.” I say in a pleading tone while dodging his attacks just then he kicks me in the face and I slid across the ground. “But I do.” He said. As I got up Jason rushed me he started with a barraged of punches. I start to think to myself this is not how my team fights it just can be them. Jason then jabbed me in the stomach which pushed me back a little. “How pathetic I thought you were better.” He said in a mocking tone. “It’s a mystery how you became a captain in the first place.” I have to fight to fight back I won’t kill them but at least I can stop them. I charge at Jason sweep kicking him as he loses his balance I smash my fist into his stomach knocking the wind out of him then I start to run to Alex. But as I do I hear a loud ‘BANG’ and my legs drop to the floor I can’t feel any pain but I can’t move either. I looked at my legs to find bullet wounds in my knee’s I then look in the direction of the gun, Rafik was holding a smoking magnum and also smiling. “I want to get the killing of you over with.” He said. “Jenny finish him.” Jenny walk toward me holding an M9 then she pointed it to my head. She had a sadistic smirk on her face and said, “Good bye Mike forever.” “Jenny noooo!!!!” Yell as I jolt awake with a cold sweat and my heart racing. When I finally calm down I realize it was daytime, activating my hawk eye I see that its 8:30 am on the HUD. I get out of my bed do some stretching and walk out of my room. My stomach was making those noise again so I decided to head to the kitchen. As I get there I see a purple and green lizard or I think it’s a lizard any way’s he seem to be doing something on the stove but he’s so short that he has to use a stool.Not know whether it was a friend or foe I drew one of my Desert Eagle I slowly made my way towards it. Then I put my gun to his head and said, “Freeze.” “Yah!!!” It yell then falls of the stool it was standing on. “You’re awake.” “Who are you?” “I….I’m Spike Twilights number one assistant.” He tells me. “Hmm ok what are you doing then Spike.” “Well I’m making breakfast I was going to wake you up but you beat me to it.” “Well since I’m here I guess I saved you the trouble.” I say then I see a book on the counter it says Zombie Survival Guide. “So you like zombies?” “More like I believe in them I’m telling you they exist, every pony tells me that they aren’t real but think they are.” He says. “You probably think I’m crazy don’t you?” “Actually no I don’t me actually believe you.” “Wha… really.” “Yeah mostly because I encounter them already.” “You’ve seen zombies before!!!!” “Yup.” “Tell me more.” “How about I tell you while we eat my stomach has been eyeing those waffles for a bit.” Let me tell you Spike knows how to cook, those waffles were the best waffles I had in ages they were so rich and crispy. Anyways we talked for three hours about my experiences with zombies and about his life well mostly him anyways. He was very interested to know that fried chicken grease actually cures you from the infection and that zombies can’t see or smell they only have their hearing to rely on. “Oh I almost forgot Twilight wanted me to give you this letter.” Spike said then handed me the letter.I took the letter and opened it and it said, Dear Blaze, Since you were still sleeping like an idiot and yelling stuff in your sleep I decided not to bother you. I went out to help out Applejack with something so I will be out if you have any question just ask Spike. Also Rarity said to come by at 11:00 am. Please don’t do anything stupid or corrupt Spike with your stupidity. Twilight Sparkle. Influenced stupidity did I mention how much Twilight is a bitch. I then get up from the table and go to the sink with my plate as I’m about to wash it Spike tell me he will do them for mostly because 11:00 is almost here and I wouldn’t want to keep Rarity. Realizing he was right I bolted toward the door but realized that I have no idea where she lives so it return to Spike and he tells me the direction but to be safe he gives me a photo of the Carousel Boutique. I thank him ad head out as I’m outside just then an idea hits me why don’t I get a map of the place so I won’t have to ask for directions all the time. I look at the library it seem pretty high to see most of Ponyville so I start climbing I would have taken the stairs but what’s the fun in that. As I reach the top I activate my hawk eye and activated the map layout mode, scanning all of Ponyville took no more than a few seconds. Once that was done I put a marker on the Carousel Boutique and headed off by jumping to the nearest roof, the fall wasn’t that high so there was no need to tuck and roll, then I saw a ladder and used it to climb down to the ground. Once that was done I started to walk through town most of the ponies didn’t seem to mind me some even waved at me I wondered if Pinkie Pie or Fluttershy put in a good word for me well whatever happen makes me feel more at easy. Then I walk to the Carousel Boutique with my head hung high. Regular Perspective Blaze final reached the boutique he notice how fancy the place look and then entered the door. Upon entering he heard the bell ring and Rarity appear, when she saw Blaze she couldn’t help but smile making a quick sprint towards him she gave him a hug. Blaze could feel Rarity’s soft breast rubbing on his chest and started blushing. “Is something wrong Blaze?” She asked him. “Oh I’m fine just a little hot from running all the ways here.” He replied. “Ok well go into the changing booth and strip down so I can take you measurements.” “Is it really necessary to strip?” “Very if I don’t I won’t have proper measurement.” Rarity say then starts to push him into the changing room. “Not to mention I’ll get to look at that ass of yours.” “Did you say something Rarity?” “Oh nothing darling I’m just excited that’s all.” “If you say so.” He said then went inside. Rarity’s Perspective It’s been five minutes where is he? I’ve been waiting and wondering how he looks under his clothes is does he have a abs or flabs is he hairy or hairless to be honest I sort of have a fetish for exotic creatures and I really want see what Blaze has going on. “Rarity I’m finished.” He calls out, I so excited that I on the edge of my seat. As he comes out I couldn’t help but frown as his jacket was still on but I could still see his leg and might I right I’m extremely impressed. “Blaze darling you need to take off you jacket or I won’t get the right measurement.” “(Sigh) Ok but please don’t be disgusted.” He tells me. “I promise whatever is under there I won’t judge.” “Alight here I go.” He said then took off his jacket. Oh my Celestia his body is amazing his are abs amazing his muscles are just so hot. As I examine his body some more he has a few scars on his chest and back which makes him even hotter. I wanted to just put my finger all over his body but I need to be professional about this but soon maybe when he’s sleeping. “Rarity are you in there.” Blaze tells me then I snap out of my stupor. “I know my scars are bad but you don’t have to stare so hard.” “Scars are nothing to be ashamed of, my father always told me scars are a reminder of our mistake but we learn from them and move on.” I reply. “Well your father was a wise man.” “Yes he was he was a retired veteran for the royal guard, but know he just travel’s around the world with my mother.” I reply. “Now get on the stand and we can begin measurements.” He complies and get on I can still see he’s nervous, which makes him so adorable. “Blaze darling there’s no need to be nervous.” I say in a soothing tone. “Sorry it’s just that it’s been a while since I’ve been half naked around the opposite gender.” “Oh no need to worry darling I am a professional I get male clients all the time.” “If you say so.” “So Blaze is there anything specific you would like in your clothes?” “Well if you could make them in colors of black, grey, and red that would be great, also I need the clothes to be durable and flexible so I will be able to move around when I run or climb over intense obstacles.” “So basically you want the free runner set.” “Uh yeah I guess so.” “Alright then I shall start the measurements.” I start the measurements on his torso. As I but the measuring tape my hands run along his chest, his chest is so firm and strong. “Uh Rarity.” He tells me so I move to his arms his muscles are simply divine my hand are just all in bliss right know and I don’t want to stop but if I don’t he might catch on and I haven’t even gotten to feel his bottom. So I move on to his waist his abs felt just amazing as they look if I keep this up I might just soak my panties. I measured his legs and finally got to grab his butt, his butt is so well tone so firm that it was unbearable. “Rarity can you please stop touching my butt?” Blaze tells me. “You’re kinda making me uncomfortable.” “Oh sorry my bad.” I reply. “On the bright side I’m done so you can go.” “Thanks.” He said then went into the changing room. Blaze Perspective The first thought going through my heed was how I just been violated so badly I mean did she even get measurement or was she just having a hands on session with my body. Trying to forget the fact that I was violated I put my clothes on then head back to Rarity, she tells me that making the clothes will take a half an hour so I can come back then, I then thank her and leave. Once I reach the town my mind started to wonder. “I wonder if there are any other humans besides those Paradox goons” I think to myself. “I mean am I the only one here did Jason make it out of the blast or is he here but far away?” All these question spun around my head and all this thinking made me hungry. I decided to head home and get a quick bite but before I could even register anything someone grabbed my hand and in the blink of an eye I was in Sugarcube Corner and Pinkie Pie was in my face again I could smell the sweets coming from her mouth. “Hiya Blaze what can I get you?” she asks me in her usual cheery tone. “What?” I reply still dumbfounded I will never understand her logic. “What would you like to eat silly?” “Uh Pinkie Pie I don’t have any currency.” “That’s okay this one is on the house.” “Pinkie Pie you really don’t have to.” “Oh but I want to it’s what friends do Blazy.” Friends we only know each other for a few hours and she considers me a friend. These ponies are really trusting I guess staying here won’t be so bad. Anyway I looked at the counter and saw a slice of strawberry cheesecake it looked really. “Pinkie Pie can I have that?” I say while pointing to the cheesecake. “Sure!!!!” She replies then hops over takes a slice and slides it towards me. I ate the cake so quickly man I guess I didn’t realize how hungry I am. “Thank you Pinkie Pie the cake was really good.” I tell her. “You’re welcome and you can call me Pinkie all my friends do.” “Uh ok Pinkie thanks but still I do need it make some money if I’m going to be staying here.” “Well you could look at the quest board they always have jobs and some pay really really well.” “I think I will check it out thanks Pinks.” “OHHHHHH you gave me a nick name are we like good friends now?” “I…guess.” “Yay!!!” Pinkie Pie yells then gives me a spine crunching hug I could feel her breast pressing on my chest there so it wasn’t that bad wait she’s a pony this is wrong I have to get out of this . “Pin-kie you’re crushing me.” I say in a wheezing voice. “Whoops.” She said then released me from her grip. “I guess I don’t know my strength sorry.” “No problem.” I say with a grunt. “Now let’s find that quest board.” “It’s by the entrance.” She tell me then points toward the board. “Thanks again.” I say then head to the board. As I reach I see the board has many papers that are stapled in pinned in. “Ok let’s see here, foal sitter that’s a big no I mean what do I know about kids next, clock tower assistant nah seems to boring, huh what this treasure retriever it says here you have to be extremely agile, stealthy, strong and fast, they must also know how to fight you will be paid very good and travel. This sounds like my kinda of job.” I take the flyer down and put it in my pocket then I check my Hawkeye HUD and see that thirty minutes had gone by. “Well I got to go see yah Pinks.” I say then head out the door. “Bye Blazy I hope you like your clothes.” She replies. “Thanks, wait how did you know about the clothes Rarity was making for me?” “Oh I didn’t it was just a lucky guess.” I look at her for a few more seconds shake my head and leave. “That mare is going to give me an aneurism one day.” I finally made it to the boutique feel a little nervous about how my clothes are going to look. Taking a deep breath I open the door and walk in as I get inside I see Rarity come out from the back, the awkward thing was is that it sort of smelled a bit musky but I decided to ignore it. “Hey Rarity are they finished.” I ask. “Oh yes darling they are finished it was not really that hard since you have the same height as most stallions.” “Told yah so, anyways can I see them?” “Of course right this way.” She said then walked into the back room with me right behind her. Regular Perspective Blaze was in complete awe as he saw the clothes Rarity made for him. First was five t-shirts one was red, two black, and two were grey. Next was his pants he had two grey cargo shorts, two black cargo pants, and one forest camo cargo pants. “These are great but what’s with the camo pants.” “Uh well I just added that in for fun I hope it’s not an issues.” “Oh it fine I was just curious, that’s all.” “Well I thought the pants would look nice on you.” “Oh thanks.” “You’re very welcome I hope they are to your liking.” “They are and I will find a way to repay you once I start getting cash.” “Blaze darling think nothing of it as I said this one is on me.” “Well either way I’ll make it up to you somehow.” “Well if you say so dear anyways I’ll go pack your clothes.” She said then left the room to go get bags. After Rarity pack my bags I went to one of the stores and got some boxers and socks then I came back to the library Spike was sleeping on the couch I didn’t want to disturb him so I just went to my room. I dropped my jacket on my bed and took the job flyer out of my pocket looking the flyer once more. It said to meet them at 2pm at the local coffee shop ‘Sweet Bean’. “Well it 1:30 pm right now I guess it won’t hurt to get ready now.” Blaze said. Then he took off his clothes and take a shower once he was finished he got his red shirt, grey cargo shorts and sneakers. As he left his room he saw Spike was up and reading his zombie survival book, he decided to get a cup of water and not bother him. “Oh Blaze I didn’t realize you were back um Twilight wanted to speak with you when you came home.” He said. “Oh she does, alright where is she?” Blaze asked. “She’s in her room.” “Ok thanks Spike.” Blaze tells him then goes up stairs. “This better be good I need to leave so I can get that job.” As Blaze reached Twilight’s room and took a deep breath then knocked. There was no answer he knocked again now answer so he decided to just walk in. As he got inside Twilight was walking out of the bathroom Blaze could only drop his jaw as Twilight was in nothing but a towel. As Twilight saw Blaze she scream and by instinct she shot a blast of magic at him. Normally Blaze would have dodged the blast but he was still off guard by Twilight only in her towel and was hit, the impact was so much that he flew out the door as he recovered the door slammed. “Well she obviously does not want to talk guess I’ll try later.” He said then got up. As he came down stairs Spike hopped of the couch. “So Blaze how did it go.” Spiked asked. “Um she didn’t fell like talking.” He replied. “Huh that’s weird.” “Yeah weird, anyway I’m heading out again so I’ll me back whenever.” He said then walked out the door. “Oh ok dinner is at seven I’m making Alfredo.” “Sounds good.” He said then ran off. FIVE MINUTES LATER AT THE SWEET BEAN COFFEE SHOP Blaze entered the coffee shop as he did he realized that he had no idea how his new employer looked so he went to the cashier. As he went to the counter he saw a mare pegasus she was slightly shorter him and had an athletic body tone similar to Rainbow Dash. She had orange eyes and a cream coat also she had an orange mane that was in a pony tail (no pun intended). She wore a black apron green shirt and black jeans and some green flip flops, she had her back turned so she didn’t see him so he reached over and tapped her on the shoulder. “Excuse me my name is Blaze I’m looking for the person who put up this ad up.” “Hold on one sec.” She turns around and saw Blaze her jaw dropped instantly. “WA what wah it’s you the human, what are you doing here?” “I’m here for the job application Ms….” “Extract, Vanilla Extract pleasure to meet you.” She said then took her hand out which of course Blaze shook. “So you’re here for the job?” “Yup, I gotta make some money somehow and the ad looked interesting.” “W… wow well just follow me I’ll lead you to him.” She said then took off her apron and started to head into the back. “Hey Espresso can you take over for now I got to deal with this.” “Sure Ms. Extract.” Said the one known as Espresso. “Follow me Blaze.” Vanilla said then went in the back room it was a simple room it had a couch, two beanbags and a desk. “Yo Fort someone’s is here for the job.” “I’ll be out in second.” Said a masculine voice. Just then the door opened and a unicorn stallion came out he had a light brown coat straight grey mane and blue eyes, he wore a light green shirt and some grey jeans. The one thing that caught Blaze of guard was the fact that the stallion was in a wheelchair. “Hello I’m Fortune.” He said then took out his hand which of course Blaze shook. “So you’re the human that everypony is talking, can I offer you a drink?” He said then offered Blaze a glass of a white cold liquid. “Sure.” Blaze replied not wanting to be rude he drank it. “Pina Colada?” “Yup to me they are one of the most refreshing drinks in the world, what about you Blaze.” “Uhh I don’t really have a favorite I just go with whatever quenches my thirst.” “I see you’re not picky that’s a good start well let’s begin.” “Ok what do want to know?” “I want to know if I can trust you, as you can see I can walk anymore.” “Um if I can ask why can’t you walk?” “Well it started while I was on my latest expedition one of my partners betrayed me and I ended up with this.” He said then lifted his the sleeve of his pants to see his legs were turned into stone. “Wha…what happened?” “It’s a curse called Maredusa Gaze, it turns the victim into stone, and lucky I only got half of it.” “I can see why you would have some trust issues.” “Exactly, so how can I trust you?” “Well for one I just came to this place so I don’t really know any but the Elements of Harmony and the Princesses.” “That pretty good but I still need more, oh I know how about I give you a lie detector test.” “Fine with me.” Fortune charged up a spell then shot it at Blaze. It encased Blaze in a blue aura, Blaze didn’t feel any different so just went with it. “First question what did you used to do before you came here?” “I was a soldier.” “Ok so far so good next question have you ever killed someone?” “Yes.” “How many have you killed?” “I lost count after five thousand.” “Jeez did you go on a massacre?” “No I just killed at a really young age.” “Ok do you enjoy killing?” “Why does everyone ask that?” “Because I want to know if I’ll be working with a psychotic killer or a sane pon -erm person.” “(Sigh) No I don’t enjoy it actually my least favorite thing to do.” “You seem to be telling the truth.” “Well I don’t really have much hide.” “So far you seem ok and I’ll take your word for it your first job start tomorrows we will be traveling to the Pamazonion Rainforest there seems to be a secret temple there which will bring us one step closer to lifting the curse. An informant named Yearly was doing some research there when she discover the temple she would have gone in there herself but the temple was covered head to toe with guards from an organization. There a bunch of scoundrels if you ask me they take artefacts and put them in their mansion like souvenirs. The world needs to see these artefact learn about the past that what I devoted my life to until the accident. Now I decided that I need to focus on how to lift the curse and walk again. Anyways I’ll see you at 8 am sharp.” “Understood I’ll see you tomorrow.” Blaze said then shook his hand. “But um just how are we getting there.” “Well Vanilla of course we have a flying carriage and she will pull like she always does.” Fortune replied. “Right any way’s I’ll see you tomorrow.” Blaze said then left the walk back to the library seemed very quick. He open the door and found Spike sleeping on the couch not wanting to disturb him he snuck into the kitchen and found Twilight washing the dishes with her magic. He saw plastic bowl with his name on it and took it. “Well your home you missed dinner.” She said in a rude tone. “Well it was for a good cause Twibright.” He replied with pasta in his mouth. “Ugh will you stop calling me that?” She replied in an annoyed tone. “Anyways earlier today that little stunt you pulled trying to peep on me while I was taking a shower you’re sick you know that.” “Spike told me you wanted to talk to me and I accidental walked in not my fault you stunk at that specific moment.” “I wasn’t smelly I was just really sweaty from helping Applejack you idiot!” “Can you… I don’t know keep it down Spike is sleeping.” Twilight looks over and saw Spike sleeping peacefully. “Follow me outside.” She said then walk out the back followed by Blaze. “Look I know you’re living here but just because the Princess said that you were supposed to stay here doesn’t mean that you can be a freeloader that’s why I asked Applejack if you can work on the farm.” “Heh there’s no need for that Twibright I already have a job I start tomorrow and I won’t be back till Tuesday or Wednesday depending on the situation.” “So you’re going to be gone for two to three days.” Twilight said with a hint of happiness in her tone. “Yes I bet you’re just ecstatic about me being out of your hair.” “Yeah you could say that but you’re still going to help Applejack every once in a while.” “Ugh fine jeez anyways I’m going to bed.” Blaze said then walked inside. He saw Spike still sleeping on the couch and decided to carry him to bed, he went to Twilights room then put him down into Spike’s basket. “Good night kid.” Blaze then went into his room and started to do a weapons check. “My tomahawk and knife are in perfect condition, let’s see my Desert Eagles have four clips, and I have two flash bangs guess my weapons are in check. Now what should I wear, I guess a grey shirt my Fire Wolves hoodie and those camo pants will do for now. Anyways now that everything is in check I can get some shut eye tomorrow is going to be a big day. > A new job and interesting rewards > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Princess Celestia had basically had a good day overall her subjects were safe there were no complaints and she had only three more minute until day courts was over. Yes in Celestia’s book this would count as a great day, “AUNTY!!!!” A regal male voice yelled. Well almost a great day. As her doors open up only to find her nephew Prince Blue walk in and he did not have a happy look on his face. Celestia already knew that he wanted something could feel that smile on her face disappear. “What is it Blueblood?” She ask with a forced smile. “I’m going on a date tonight with a mare and I need some money for a new suit.” “But you have over a hundred suits just use one of those.” “What I can do no such thing, wearing the same suit could ruin my reputation.” “Well I don’t see how that’s my problem.” “We I’m the face of Cant-“Just as he was about to finish what he was saying the door busted open and upon entering was a pissed off blood covered Blaze. “Celestia!!!!!!!”Blaze yell that could almost rival the Royal Canterlot voice. Celestia almost cringed at the amount of sound Blaze just emitted but yet would rather have Blaze being pissed off and covered in blood than a whiny Blueblood. “Blaze what an unexpected surprise what brings you to Canterlot and why are you covered in blood.” “Don’t bullshit me Celestia you know what going on here.” He said while walking up to her but was cut off by Blueblood. “Hey you overgrown ape I was talking to my aun-“But was but off by Blaze head-butting him, Blueblood instantly fell down without a fight Celestia could only feel a slight weight lifted off her shoulders. “Now where was I, oh right being pissed off at you?” Blaze said to Celestia. “What did I do?” Just then Blueblood got up and charge at Blaze, easily enough Blaze merely sidestepped and pulled out something that looked like the blaster rifle Blaze owned, the only difference was that it was shorter and had a bow so it looked like a crossbow, he then shot Blueblood you could see Blueblood being electrocuted by his twitching around on the ground, the electrocuted hair, smoky smell, and also the fact that he urinated himself. Just then Luna ran into the door she seemed to have a concerned look on her face. “Sister we heard someone use the Royal Canterlot voice is thou ok?” Luna ask. She then shifted her attention to Blaze and an unconscious wet Blueblood. “Sister why is our annoying nephew on the ground in a puddle of urine, not that we are upset about it, oh Blaze we almost did not see you there how are you?” “Uh sister now is not a good time.” “Yeah mostly because your sister stole my technology to make weapons for her guards.” “What I did no such thing, what would give you that idea.” “Hmm let’s see I’m the only person in the world that knows about and owns that weapon, I left it in Canterlot with you, and I’m currently hold a bootlegged version so if that doesn't say made in Equestria I don’t know what does.” “Blaze I assure you I had nothing to do with this.” Celestia replied in a sincere tone. “Why don’t you, me, and Luna sort this out try but let’s get some dinner first. “(Sigh) fine.” Blaze replied bitterly. After a three minute walk to the dining hall the three finally made it and took a seat, Celestia ordered some mushroom soup while Luna had some Alfredo, Blaze just gave them a mistrusting look. Celestia could see the anger in his eyes, she needed a way to diffuse the situation. “Blaze would you like anything to eat?” She asked. “I didn't come to have dinner with you Celestia.” “(Sigh) Fine what’s wrong.” “Well to explain what happened I need to start from the beginning.” “Okay, then give me a second. Sister I will see you shortly” Celestia told Luna then teleported herself and Blaze into her study. “So what gave you the idea about weapon manufacturing in Equestria?” “Anyways my day started…” PONYVILLE, GOLDEN OAKS LIBRARY 6, AM Blaze’s Perspective I woke up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated it’s the first time in a while that I haven’t had any night terrors. Getting out of my bed my bed I saw something shining out of my hoodie pocket so out of curiosity I decided it inspect. But what I found was something that made me drop to my knees, it was my teammate dog tag. You see before the mission my team (excluding Tech) gave me their dog tags, they knew that this mission was going to be brutal and had a few doubts about making back so they gave me the dog tags for some strange reason they thought I would survive I guess they were right. Holding in my hand are all my memories of my team came back all the missions and fun time I felt a little sadness welled up in but I immediately get a hold of myself and suppress my emotions. “You guys deserve a better place than my pocket I’ll make sure to give you a good resting place.” I said then I decided to get dress which was a grey shirt, forest camo cargos, black fingerless gloves, and combat boots. After that I threw on my gear which was my Desert Eagles, my tomahawk, and my combat knife. Feeling ready I grabbed my fallen comrades dog tags then headed out my room. Unfortunately for me Twibright was already up and I bumped into her while I was in the hallway to make things worse she had coffee all over and she seemed pissed off more than ever. “Great there goes my coffee.” She said in an annoyed tone. She then look at me and saw that I had on my gear and gave me a curious but annoyed look. “Where do you think you’re going and what’s with all that stuff you have on?” “Well to answer I’m going to work and to answer your second question this is my working gear.” I reply. “You’re working gear?” “Yeah is that a problem Twibright?” “Ugh don’t call me that Flame.” “My name is Blaze and you know that.” “I’ll call you Blaze when you call me Twilight.” “Whatever I’m out of here.” “I can already feel my headache lifting.” “Oh ha-ha very funny, don’t you have some little report to write for Celestia or something?” “As matter fact I do and that-“ “I was kidding I really don’t care.” I say then walk out the door. Walking down Ponyville at 6 in the morning is actually quiet. Most Ponies are just setting up their shops or heading on their way to work. Lucky I don’t have to start until 8 so I have some time to kill. Then it dawned on me I could still use some more equipment so I head to the nearest weapons store around. When I reach there is a small store that’s called Dual Steel’s Weaponry & Crossbow Shooting Range. I enter the building it’s seemed to have swords, knives, crossbows, and bows. “Seems like I’m going to be coming here often.” I say to myself. Then I looked over to the counter to see a grey unicorn mare, she had silver short hair with bangs and had an athletic figure similar to Rainbow Dash. She wore a black blouse and grey jean and was about a foot shorter than me she look at me with a curious look. “You’re the human right?” she asked in an accent that sounded British. “Uh yeah.” I reply “As cool as this is why are you here?” “Well I was getting to that, you see I need some throwing knives and my tomahawk needs to be sharpened.” Oh that should be easy that will be-“ “But you see I don’t have any money.“ “(Sigh) so you’re broke?” “Yes but maybe I can repay you someway else I’m probably getting paid when I get back from my job.” “So you just want me hand you stuff you might not even come back.” “Look I’m living in Ponyville so you could find me if I was bull shiting you.” “(Sigh) Okay I’ll go along for now follow me.” She said then motions me to follow her. Entering the back were more blades, axes, knives, and a workshop. “So you need throwing knives I have all kinds of throwing knives. From the boomerang knives which will come back to the owner once thrown to the heat seeking knives which will follow the nearest heat signature.” “Those sound pretty useful I’ll take five of those boomerang knives and some regulars throwing knives, now about my tomahawk.” “Oh sure give it here.” She said the reach out her hand. I give her my tomahawk and she start to inspect it, she seem it be in awe with it inspect the craftsmanship of it feeling the blade and the wincing in pain from the cut she just received from it. “This tomahawk is magnificent the blade is so superb and the handle is sturdy this is truly a masterpiece where is you get it from?” “Well it was a gift so I’m not sure where it was from exactly.” “Such a shame it would have been nice to know where it came from I could and learn to make weapons like yours.” She tells me the starts sharpening it. Twenty minutes later she done and hands me my tomahawk, and man did she do a good job, holding it in my hand I could feel that the handle had been repaired and looking at the blade I could tell that it was sharpened right. “Wow you really know what you’re doing.” I say. “My blade has never looked so… fresh.” “Yeah well it’s my speciality so I’m not surprised.” She replies in a cool casual tone. “Well thanks you really helped me out today I guess I own you one Ms…. I uh never got your name.” “Oh um my name is Dual Steel and you?” “Blaze.” “Well Mr. Blaze after you’re done with whatever you’re doing you can come and meet me at my shop and pay me back.” “Uh sure anyway I better get going.” I reply then start to head out. “Oh before you go take this.” She said then hands me what appears to be a blow dart pipe with a trigger attached to it. “What this some kind of dart gun?” “Yes actually it shoots sleeping or poison darts, but instead of blowing you can pull a trigger, it’s much safer than blowing into it.” “Well that’s neat and all but why are you giving it to me?” “I need someone to test it and you seem perfect tell me how it works when you get back and I will give it to you.” “Deal.” I reply then leave. After a few minutes I finally make it to the coffee shop but when I got there was a trailer in front of the store and it had clouds underneath it. “What the hell is this thing?” I ask myself. “It’s our transportation I call it the nimbus ranger.” A voice said. Turning to the voice I see Fortune and Vanilla both of them looked ready to go. “What is it exactly?” “Well it our mobile base for when we leave Equestria.” Fortune replied. “Well let’s head out the sooner we leave the sooner we’ll finish.” He said then went inside the craft.Vanilla and I then follow Fortune into the interior it basically looks like the interior of a spy van it has a control panel, some computers and chairs, and a mini fridge. “Nice place but how does it fly?” Blaze asked. “We’ll all you have to is punch in the coordinates then it take you there.” Fortune replied. “Sounds easy enough but to you have a manual setting in case it can’t reach certain areas?” “Of course there’s a manual mode why do you ask?” “Well you guys might need to fly into some tight space to extract me out.” “Well let’s get going.” Fortune said then punched in the coordinates. In an instant the nimbus ranger took to the skies. “Whoa this thing moves pretty quickly.” Blaze said. “Yup you could cross the entire of Equestria in about an hour, just so you know Equestria is pretty big.” Fortune explained. “Okay sounds pretty neat anyways care to brief me on what my mission is.” “Oh right as you know we are going to the Pamazonion Rainforest its completely outside Equestrian soil and that there is a temple there it’s called the Itzpapalotl Temple. Basically there these jewels called time gems, they basically can reverse time whether it be would or a time of day.” “You’re telling me that these gems can reverse time?” Blaze said with a shock expression. “Well yes and no. You see there are more than one of these gems it would take at least three of these gems in order return me back to normal.” “Okay, is there anything else I need to know?” “Yes the temple is being guarded by PMC’s so it won’t be a cake walk.” “Well I guess that’s when stealth will needed.” “Exactly try to avoid as much contact as possible.” “No problem, but how will I know what the time gem looks like?” “Don’t worry when you get to the top of the inside the temple you’ll know, oh take this.” Fortune said then handed him a parachute. ”Vanilla open the hatch.” “Roger.” Vanilla replied. “So how will I be able to contact you?” Fortune asked me. “I’ll contact you on my hawkeye.” The hatch opened up, I could feel the air blowing against me this feeling is so nostalgic. The blood in my veins started to pump, I could feel the adrenaline flowing. Then I dashed off and jumped out of the nimbus. During my freefall I could see the temple in the distance, so I turned on my hawkeye to set a marker on the temple. Seeing that I was gaining more ground I opened my chute and descended into the jungle. My chute manage to hang on a branch and from there I unhooked it and dropped to the ground unscathed. I then open my hawkeye and contacted Fortune. “Fortune this is Blaze do you copy?” I say. “How are you alive?!” Fortune replied in a relieved tone. “What are you talking about?” I reply. “You jumped from an extremely high altitude I thought you died since you forgot to take the oxygen mask.” “Oh that’s right my body is modified to handle high altitudes I guess I forgot to tell you.” “I guess so anyways when you’re done getting the gem meet us 5 miles southwest from the temple you won’t be able to call us once you get near the temple.” “Huh why?” “The PMC will intercept our radio and compromise your cover so radio silence is necessary.” “Hm, make sense okay I’ll see you soon.” Turning off my communications I took out my desert eagle and knife and started to head out. Moving thought the jungle for 3 hours was a real pain in the ass I only wonder why I couldn't land a little closer to the temple. Anyways after a while I saw some on the PMC’s, instantly I took cover into a nearby bush, they all seemed to be wearing balaclavas with jungle fatigues but the weirdest thing was their weapons, it was a crossbow but metallic and covered in black. I felt like seen that weapon before but decided to shake off for now and finish the mission. When I got towards the temple I saw at least 20 PMC’s guarding the temple. “This is too easy I won’t even have to take anyone out.” I thought to myself. “I am going to have to find a different way to get into to the temple there are too many PMC’s guarding the entrance. I better use my hawkeye and do 3D scan of the temple.” Scanning the temple was easy and quick I found a small hole, that was big enough for me to fit in, that lead to the inside. After seeing that the coast was clear I make a quick sprint toward the hole, while sticking to cover, when I finally reach the hole I crawled inside. Even though the hole was big enough for me to crawl into it was still a little cramped and crawling though it for 20 minutes was getting me antsy but I manage to finally get on the other side. The inside of the temple basically look like any other temple in a jungle it was dusty, covered in ruins, and had many vines stick out. I ended up in a hallway and started to head out making my way up. “So wanna grab some cider after we finished patrolling this floor.” A voice said getting my attention I decided to hug the wall and stick to the shadows peeping out of the corner, I saw two PMC’s one was a pegasus stallion and the other was an earth pony mare. “Sure I think that a great idea all this patrolling is making me thirsty.” Said the mare. “Damn the only way to the gem is through them looks like I’ll have to take them down.” I thought to myself then took out my dart gun. I aimed it at the stallion and fire it, the gun was silent so I didn't worry about attracting attention, and the dart stuck him in the neck. The stallion start to get wobbly after a few seconds and I knew that was my moment to strike so I dashed. “Steel are you…” the mare tried to say but I beat her by putting her in a lock and covering her muzzle, by this time the stallion known as Steel was already on the ground unconscious, the mare now trying to break free was panicking. Now at first I was just going to hold her until she passed out but then I saw one of the crossbows on the floor. Again it looked so familiar to until I saw the Fire Wolves insignia on it not to mention when did crossbows have ammunition clips? “Son of a bitch.” I muttered under my breath. I couldn't believe it, that sun bitch took my rifle and made a bootlegged copies. I then remembered I still had the mare PMC in my hands now I was a perfect time to get some answers. “Tell me what you know about your weapons.” I saw then slowly move my hand. “Go buck yourself.” She tell me in the bitterest tone possible. “What did you do to Steel?” “Shut up I’m the one asking the questions.” I tell her then put a tighter grip on her. “Now tell me about these weapons or I’ll kill you.” “Ha why don’t I give you a hand?” She said in a cocky tone. She then started to chew on something, at this moment I let her go and she dropped in the ground, she started to spasm on the ground while foam came from her mouth the in an instant she went limp. “Damn it they have cyanide tablets.” I said then look over to the unconscious stallion. “I tie him up and when he wakes up I’ll interrogate him. But for now I’ll I need to focus on finding that time gem and after that I’ll eliminate every last PMC on this site, I can have them l walking around holding this kind of technology.” Finding the gem wasn't really hard at all sure there was the piranha pit I had to climb over and the flaming dart hallway I had to speed though not to mention the Manticore den I had to stealthy cross. Overall it was basically cakewalk I mean this wasn't my first time walking through a booby-trapped build needless to say I made it to the gem it was blue and about the size of my hand, I stored it in to one of my pockets and started to make my way out, as I reached the exit of the door I check my weapons were ready and full of ammo. Once that was done I kick down the door and dashed outside. By that time I had already caught a few of the PMC’s attention. One off them had already started to make his move, he tried to slash me with his machete but I manage to duck and instead counter by cutting in his side with my tomahawk, he yelp in pain as blood started to ooze out of his side but I wasn't done with him yet I pulled out and slit throat in and instant he fell to the ground laying limp in a pool of his own blood. The other PMC looked at me with an angered look as they saw me kill one of their teammates. “Let kill that piece of shi-“one of the PMC’s tried to say but was cut off when my tomahawk met her face. At that moment I knew I had just added the gasoline to the fire that was burn inside of them all at once all the PMC’s rush at me but I wasn't going let that scare me so instead I went Edward Kenway on their asses. I pulled out my two Desert Eagles and started to drop them. I could see all of their flesh being torn away by my bullets some were even going through them and killing the pony behind them. When I stopped firing there was 12 of the PMC’s on the ground soaked in blood and dead. “Over there kill him!!!” yell one of the ponies. I quickly turned my head so see three PMC running towards me. I saw a nearby gas tank and fire my gun blowing them up and watching their limbs fly everywhere. There were two PMC’s one had a battle axe and the other had a copied blaster bow. I was basically out of bullets and it would take too long to reload so instead I went for a boomerang knife. “HAHAHA what do you expect to do with a knife you outnumbered and outgunned” One of the PMC’s said. I threw the knife at them, instantly they dodged it by ducking, then I saw my chance while they were ducking I dashed towards the PMC with the blaster bow and quickly disarmed him then I pointed the blaster and his stomach and fired, I also started to pull the gun upward while firing so scorched wholes were in his stomach and chest. Just then another PMC rushed at me with his battle axe, he swung his axe but I manage to back flip away “Come back here so I can cut you in half!!!!” He yelled. “I’d rather not.” I reply with a snarky tone. “So you can talk.” “Yeah I can but you won’t be alive long enough to see.” I say then rush at him, I jumped up and roundhouse kick his axe out of his hand but he managed to grab me by the legs and toss me to the ground. “Hmph your all talk.” He said in a mocking tone. “Well I bet your friends wish they could say that.” I tell him then get up. “Grrrrr you bastard.” He yells then charges at me. Instantly I get into my combat stance, he starts to throw wild punches which I manage to easily dodge. After his little rage I could see that he was getting tired and this was my chance to get on the offensive. I started to throw some quick jabs to his face and he started to get dazed at that moment I knew that this was the moment to finish him. I jumped up in the air and axe kick him. Instantly he fell to the ground and was knocked out, but I wasn't finished with him yet I picked up his axe and decapitated him in one chop. But the time that was over I was covered in blood and but less pissed off I still need to get some answers, it’s a good thing that I knocked out on of those PMC’s. I walked over to the dead mare that had my tomahawk in her face and pulled it out, then I cleaned my tomahawk. I started to walk inside the temple until I heard yelling, it seem to be a PMC and he seem pissed he was charging at me with a machete. “I will kill you and avenge all my comra-.” Is what he said until my boomerang knife made contact with head? He dropped instantly and went limp. “So that’s where it was, and that was pretty anticlimactic.” I said the headed to the temple.I found the unconscious PMC that was called Steel. He was tied up and sleeping soundly then I saw the dead mare and realize that that he probably has cyanide tablets on him I start to inspect his teeth and see three of them. I yank them all out then tie him up to a chair, it took about three hours for him to wake up and man did he freak out. “Where is Skyla!?” he yelled. “Skyla? So that’s her name, (sigh) I hate to break it to you but Skyla is dead.” I replied. “WHAT!!!! You killed her, you bastard.” “Actually she did that herself.” “She did it herself?” he repeated. “Yup cyanide really is bitch.” “Cyanide?” “Yeah cyanide.” I said then turned around. “Oh and don’t even bother to uses you I've already pulled them out.” “Damnit!!!” “Oh but don’t worry I used sanitized tools.” I say then pulled out a box full of surgery tools. “Now let’s play game, the rules are you tell me what I need to know about these blaster bows in exchange I’ll consider keeping you alive, and if you don’t comply I will forcefully remove something from your body. Now first question who your weapons supplier is?” “Go buck yourself!!!!” He yelled.” Just wait the others will find you.” “Oh no I believe that’s the wrong answer you know what that means.” I say then pull out a scalpel and slowly sever off his index finger. “By the way everyone is dead.” “RAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!”He yelled out in pain as his finger dropped on the floor and blood squirted all over me and him.” You bastard!!!!” “Now are you ready to talk?” “Just kill me I ain't talking.” “Such a shame but after this you’re going to wish you were dead.” I tell him then pull out a knife and cut his ear. Then I stabbed his legs and starting twisting the blade. His screams could be heard though the entire temple. “You know this would be so much easier if you would just tell me.” “I won’t tell you a single thing you can cut me up all you want.” “(Sigh) they just never learn welp I guess you know what that means.” I say then take the scalpel and precisely cut a square on his chest.” Just so you know this hurt you more than it hurts me.” I whisper in his cut ear then rip off the square skin on his chest. “YAAAAAAARRRG!!!!” He cries out in pain. “Yarg? No silly you’re not a pirate you a PMC.” I tell with the goofiest smile possible then slowly slice off his wings. I could see he was about to break I just need to push him a little further. “Now are you ready to talk?” “You are a sick twist creature and you belong in taturaus.” “Been there they said I was to sick twisted to handle. By the way wrong answer.” I tell him then stick my fingers into his eye socket and pull out his eye. If I though his previous scream were bad this one was way worse it could rival a banshee and actual win. “So how about now are you ready to talk?” “YES YES SWEET MERCIFUL CELESTIA YES JUST NO MORE!!!!!” “Good now who sent you these weapons?” “It was a weapons dealer that goes by the name East last from what I heard is that he made a trip from Canterlot that’s all I know I swear.” “See was that so bad don’t you feel so much better.” “Y-yes does this mean you’ll let me go?” “Sorry no can do I’m going to have to kill you.” “Wha-what but I thought you said-“ “I said I would consider letting you live. Besides you wouldn't last a day in the jungle considering the condition you in.” I say then point my pistol at his head. “I’ll make sure to make it quick and painless.” He closed his eyes and waited for the impact to be honest I didn't want to kill him but this is the price you pay when you become a soldier. I pulled the trigger and in an instant he went limp in the chair bleeding out of his head. “(Sigh) I guess I should head back to Fortune and get out of here, the sooner the better.” I say. “But first I need to get rid of all these Blaster Bow.” I pick up basically all of them, except for one that was going to be used as evidence, the most annoying part was trying to remove a blaster from a hand that got melted with the metal, in the end I just threw the body in the pit along with the other blaster then planted some explosives that was laying on the ground. I then ignited the explosives and walked away, I didn’t walk away because it made me look cool but more of the fact that there was nothing else here for me to do and I had some questions to ask. The walk back to Fortune was quiet. There was nothing to say, the only thing I could think about was the fact that Celestia lied to me all her talk about love and peace was complete bullshit. I just know that the first thing I’m going to do when I see Celestia is tell her a piece of my mind, take my gun back and get some answers. After three hour I finally spotted the Nimbus Ranger it was camouflaged under a waterfall. I entered the Ranger to find Fortune and Vanilla face to face, if any closer and it would be kissing. “Um I am I interrupting anything?” I say. Instantly they pull away from each other and a blush appears on their faces. I don’t say anything else mostly because the situation was awkward already. “We were just um…” Fortune tried to say. “Having a staring contest and-“Vanilla tried to finished but look at me with a shocked expression. “What happen to you and why are you covered in blood?” “Oh well I kinda killed all the PMC.” I replied. “WHAT!!!!!” They both yelled. “Why would you do that?” Fortune ask in a concerned tone. I then explained the situation to them. They seem to be shocked and surprised that their princess would do something like. Vanilla even tried to convince me that it might not even be her. So I told them the only way to see is if I talk to Celestia herself. Fortune seemed to agree and in an instant we headed to Canterlot. They dropped me of by the train station and from there I headed on foot, before I left Fortune handed me a bag of bits and told me that this was payment, then I got into the castle of course I beat the crap out of some of the guards then made it to Celestia. Present Time Regular Perspective “You killed them!!!” Celestia said in a furious tone. “I thought I told you not to kill anyone while in Equestria!!!!!!” “And I didn't I was outside Equestrian soil so I never broke my promise.” Blaze replied. “But I need to know if you are manufacturing weapons.” “No, I wouldn't do such a thing.” “So I can go to your research facility and not find multiply copies of these knock offs.” “Of course I have nothing to hide.” She said with a snarky tone. “How about we go right know.” Then Blaze and Celestia then teleport to Celestia’s research factory. Just then a unicorn mare came up to them, she had a brown mane in a ponytail, silver fur, and turquoise eyes. She wore a white lab coat, white blouse, black skirt, and black dress shoes. “Princess!!!!” the mare said in a cheerful tone then bowed. “Please rise Bright Star we have guest.” “Oh of course.” Bright Star replied then turned her attention toward me. Instantly she screamed. “Oh my gosh you're the human!!!!” “Uh yeah I am.” Blaze replied. “I've heard so much about you like how you helped defeat Nightmare Moon, I surprise that they didn't give you a medal or something.” “I don’t this for fame I basically fight where I’m needed but I not here to talk about ideologies do you and your scientist team have my blaster rifle?” “Um well yes.” “So you are mass producing my weapon.” Blaze said aggressively. “No I would never, one thing I don’t do is weapons.” Bright Star replied in a somewhat defensive tone. “So then why do I have this cheap knock off?” Blaze replied then pulled out the blaster bow. Bright Star then took the blaster bow and inspected it. “Well this is definitely an imitation, but this is not my work, you see I would I don’t know a single thing about weapon not to mention how would a small group of scientist mass produce these there’s just not enough people to do that .” “Well can’t you copy them?” Blaze asked. “An illusion copy yes but not the real deal, it wouldn't be able to fire anything.” “So if you’re not mass producing my rifle then what are you doing on it?” As Blaze asked her she instantly got excited. “Well we've conducted a solar energy based of your rifle this will make energy much more dependable than unicorn magic.” “Your story check out.” Blaze said. “How could you tell?” Celestia asked. “I could hear her heart rate when I asked her the question her heart rate was normal.” “But how come you didn't belie me when I told you the truth.” “Oh I did but I needed to make it look like I was blaming you so in case the suspect was in here they wouldn't seem worried and escape. Now Ms. Star if you would be so kind to retrieve my rifle that would be highly appreciated.” “Oh of course.” Bright Star replied the left. “Blaze you never seize to amaze me.” Celestia said. “How can you hear that well?” “Well not only can I hear well I can see far better, you see I was infused with wolf DNA which gives me more advance senses and abilities than ponies.” “Are all human like this?” Celestia asked. “No only Fire Wolves can obtain it.” “Fire Wolves?” “Yeah it was team I was in back on Earth we were the best of the best me and my team, (sigh) we were the best such a shame that most of them are dead.” Blaze replied with a hint of sadness in his tone. “Blaze if you want to talk about it I can-“ “Look Celestia I’d rather not talk about it talking about my past is something I’d rather not get into.” “Blaze if you keep you emotion bottled you you’ll break down eventually.” “Look you live your life raising the sun and ruling your people and I’ll live mines.” Before Celestia could replied there was a scream that came from the data room. Instantly the two made it down to the data room and found Bright Star on her knee’s crying her eye’s out. Celestia rushed over to Bright Star and tried to comfort her, meanwhile Blaze went over to the desk and found his rifle. He picked it up then latched it on his back. “I missed you so much old friend.” He said to his rifle. Then he turned his attention to Celestia and Bright Star. All Bright Star seem to say was ‘It’s all gone, It’s all gone’ he then got down on his knee and asked. “What’s all gone?” “My research, everything I work so hard on is gone, that was basically my life’s work somepony broke in and stole my files and blueprints.” Bright Star replied franticly with sobs in between. “Bright Star you need to calm down.” Blaze said seriously. “Now is there anyone who has recently been fired or quit recently.” “Well our janitor retired quit yesterday because he got a new job in Ponyville, you think he might have done it.” “Well he’s a led do you have any information on him?” “Yes we have backgrounds on all our employees… here it is his name is Orientem. He lives 113 A Cloverfield it’s a cottage on the edge of Ponyville.” “Orientem… that means east in Latin.” “You don’t think that he and the weapons dealer from your story are the same do you?” Celestia asked. “They might just be.” Blaze replied. “Well then I’ll get my guard and-“ “No, I’ll go he might be expecting you and if he is the weapons dealer he will more than likely use those blaster bows. If I go in he won’t expect it not to mention you won’t receive any causalities.” “Are you sure?” “More than sure I’ll head back Ponyville and start my search in the morning.” “Although I don’t agree I will allow it you seem to know more about these weapon so I’ll leave this up to you.” “Thank you Princess now I’ll just let myself out.” “Blaze I can just teleport you to Ponyville.” “Are you sure I don’t want to be a bother.” “No I insist.” “Well ok then, uh bye Bright Star.” “Bye Blaze, and make sure you bring that thief to justice.” Bright Star said. “Don't worry I will.” And with that he and Celestia teleported and in an instant the two made it to the entrance to Ponyville. “Well I'll see you around Princess.” Blaze said then started to walk away only to be stopped by Celestia’s had on his shoulder. She had a serious look on her face. “Blaze if you want to talk I’m all ears.” She said in a concerned tone. “Don't worry I'll be fine.” He replied in a serious tone then walked away. “I'll have to send Twilight a letter about this” She thought to herself then teleported away. It was night time by now Ponyville was mostly quiet, there was a few bars and pubs open with music but nothing really to cause a disturbance. Blaze had considered going back to the library but he was not in the mood to fight with Twilight. So instead he decided to stop by Dual Silver and pay her back for her help. Since he just got paid by Fortune. Five minutes late he was at her shop it seemed closed but the second floor light were on. So Blaze knock on the door. “Can't you see that were closed you bloody idiot!!!!” She said with an annoyed tone. “Dual it’s me Blaze you know the human.” “Blaze?!?” she replied. “Yeah.” Just then in an instant the door unlocked and open. There was Dual Steal in a blue tank top and black short that hugged her butt and hips pretty well. Blaze had caught a quick glanced but brushed it away and keep repeating in his mind that she was a pony and he was a human and it would be wrong. “So what bring you here?” she asked in an excited tone. “Well I just got off work and got paid so I decided to pay off the debt.” “Wow how very noble of you.” She said in a joking tone.” Why don’t you come inside I’m making stir fry.” “Sure I guess I could grab some grub.” Then followed her in. “So you live here?” “Yup it’s so much easier that getting a separate house.” She said then opened a door. “So this is basically my apartment.” It was more like a studio the kitchen and living room were in the same area the only thing that wasn't there was bedroom and bathroom. “Well um make yourself at home I'll get us some plates.” Blaze made his way to the couch and sat down the turned on the television. Up till this day he wonder how Equestrian had television and 21st century appliances but have medieval weapons. Anyways by the time he was done thinking Dual came back with the food. The rice and vegetables looked extremely tasty, Blaze could almost feel his mouth water. “Well someone’s hungry.” Dual said in a joking tone “Yeah well I didn't really eat anything today.” Blaze replied defensively. “Well dig in.” She told him then put some in her mouth.”Mmmmn this is good I really outdid myself this time.” “Well cheers.” Blaze said then pop the vegetable goodness in his mouth.” Damn this is good I especially like the slight spicy flavour you added in what is it?” “It’s called heat root it’s kinda like ginger but spicier it’s completely safe, I looked it up on a cookbook.” “Well I am definitely digging it.” After they were finished Blaze and Dual were satisfied with their meal but then Blaze felt something off. “Hey um Dual is it getting hot in here or is it just me.” “You know I would have taken that as a joke if I wasn't so hot myself.” She replied back. The two start to breathe a lot heavier than normal and were sweating crazy. “Dual (pant) I think it’s the stir fry.” Blaze said. “What how could it be (pant) the stir fry it the book (pant) said it was 100% safe.” “Let (pant) me see the (pant) the book.” “Here.” Dual said then tossed him the book. “It’s called Heated Stir Fry.” “It (pant) says here that the stir fry gives the (pant) consumers a passionate heat.” Blaze just had a questionable look on his face. “Passionate (pant) heat? What does that even mean?” “Oh shit, it (pant) mean that the stir fry makes us horny.” Dual said with a blush on her face. Her legs were shaking as were her arm. “How the taturaus (pant) did I not see that, ugh no matter is there a cure?” “Let’s see it say on liquid (pant) love can extinguish the (pant) heat. I think that means (pant) sex but I sure we can find another way right Dual?” Blaze said but got no reply. “Uh Dual?” Still no reply he turned around to see that Dual was gone but her clothes were on the ground. “Dual where are yo-. “ Blaze tried to say but was cut off by a naked Dual Silver jump on him. The two instantly drop to the ground with Blaze on the bottom and Dual on the top. Blaze had now seen Dual naked and was blushing extremely hard. “Dual what are you do-?” Blaze said then was cut off by Dual kissing him. “What does it look like I’m doing I trying to get your dick out.” “This isn't you this is the heat you need to beat-“Blaze tried to say but was cut off by Dual rubbing her wet marehood on Blaze’s crotch she let out a soft moan. ”Oh man that sounded hot. Wait what I just said?” “See you want it too.” Dual said in a sultry voice. “Your mind says no but your body says yes.” She said then undid his pants. Blaze didn't even fight back by this time all the grinding had put him in a pleasure coma. She then pulled out his 9 inch solid manhood and said. My my my you have a nice cock.” Then looked at his swollen ball. “Oh my, it seem that you balls are just ready to swelling up, when was the last time you had sex or relieved yourself?” Dual then proceed to lick his shaft, Blaze let out a quiet moan, she got up and position her marehood over Blaze’s face by instinct Blaze start to lick her soaking marehood while Dual working away on his cock. Blaze’s cock started to leak out pre cum and look like it was ready to burst but Dual wasn't going to have that. She the Dual horn lit up and a red ring wrapped around Blazes cock. “What happen why can't I cum.” Blaze said frustrated. “What did you do Dual?” “It’s simple really I just put blocking spell on you dick so you can't cum until I do.” “That’s sick!!!” “Hey more licking less talking.” Dual said then took Blaze’s length down her throat. Pleasure and pain swept over Blaze’s body the fact that Dual had took the entire thing down her throat was amazing but at the same time he wanted to explode. Blaze decided that Dual was not going to outdo him so he grabbed Dual by her flank and started to lick her marehood then used one of his hands to rub her clit. She start to moan loud loudly and started to get more wet her juice flowing on Blaze’s face. “Now you're getting it NYA!!!!!” "Mmmmn you taste like ginger.” Blaze said. “But I think it time for the main course don’t you agree?” “You bet.” Dual replied in a sultry tone, then got up and pointed to the couch. “Lay down and let me do all the work.” Blaze had no objections to this, not to mention they both weren't thinking since they had been drugged with a root that make you rut anything on site. Blaze laid on the couch and Dual got on top, her marehood hovering over his member the anticipation a making Blaze crazy, so he grabbed her by the waist and plunged right in. One thing was for sure she was super tight had it not been for Dual’s saliva lubing Blaze dick things would had gotten more painful than pleasure full. Dual screamed as soon as Blaze penetrated her, she could feel his member touching her womb, she started ride him slowing both of them moaning together. “I bet you want to hah explode don't yah so I'm going to pick up the pack I can feel myself getting close to. Dual said then started to move faster, their sweaty body mashing against each other. “Dual I can’t ahh take this anymore I’m going insane!!!” Blaze yelled. “Just hold on I’m also there!!” She said then picked up the pace. “NYA!!! I’m cumming I’m cumming!!!!!” All of a sudden the ring on Blaze’s member broke and the two came together. Blaze was cumming so much that it start to leak out of Dual marehood. “Sweet Celestia it’s filling me up!!!!!” After three minute of Blaze constantly cummining inside of Dual he passed out. Dual look at down to see he stomach had a small bulge. “Aw geez I’m so full I can’t wait to see our reaction in the morning”. Dual said then passed out on top of Blaze. > A rude awakening and a unexpected alliance > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Blaze had been sleeping for quite some time not only was he exhausted from yesterday’s crazy experiences but also the comfort Dual was giving him, since she had been laying on top of him, but unfortunately his slumber would come to an painful end. While he was sleeping the front door opened up, normally he would have shot right up but his body wouldn't let him so he decided to shake it off and make it a figure of his imagination. That’s what he planned to do until he heard a loud feminine scream instantly he shot up causing Dual to fall over. But before he could even react he got smacked in the face with something wooden and fell off the couch. “Ow what the hell?” He said then got a good look at the attacker. To his surprise it was Octavia the mare he met on the train. “Octavia?” he said with a confused look. “Blaze?” She replied also with a confused look. “What in the name of Faust are you doing here?” “I can actually explain that one cousin.” Dual butted in still looking tired. “Cousin?” Blaze asked still having a confused look on his face. “Yeah we are cousins.” Dual said then put her arm around Octavia. “Dual, darling I rather touch you when you’re clothed and not smelling like sex.” Octavia said with an uneasy face. “Meh whatever, uh not to be rude or anything Octavia but why are you here anyways.” Dual asked. “Well I guess I should explain.” Octavia’s Perspective a few minute before It was a pretty busy day in Ponyville the stores seemed to be very lively and everypony was going about their day. I especially was extremely busy today, because today is the day that I audition for the Grand Galloping Gala, I'm extremely excited and the best part is that my cousin Dual Steel is going to be there for support. She’s the best we are basically like sisters, so anyways I’m going over to her house to get her. I knock on the door but everything was quiet so I took out the spare key that Dual gave me and unlocked the door. Then I went upstairs and knocked on her door no answer getting concerned I opened the door upon entering the smell of sex blast my snout but the sight I saw nearly but me in shock. My cousin and Blaze, the guy I met on the train, were both naked and passed out and to make matter worse his half erect member was still inside her. Upon instinct I screamed which made Blaze shoot up causing Dual to fall over, during that time I pick my cello case and smacked him across the face with it instantly he fell off the couch. Regular Perspective present time “That explains the knocking.” Dual said. “So you actually hear me and didn't answer the door.” Octavia replied angrily “Well I was kinda to comfy to move.” Dual replied sheepishly. “I mean once we cuddle none of us could even move, right Blaze?” Blaze did not answer he only could sit on the couch with a stressed out expression and keep repeating the fact that he just slept with a pony. Octavia and Dual Steel gave him a questionable look. “Will he be okay?” Octavia asked. “Yeah I’m sure I guess interspecies relationship aren't really a thing from where he’s from.” Dual replied then started to think to herself. “Oh, Blaze why don’t you come with me to see Octavia’s audition? It will take you mind off of yesterday’s events.” Blaze just look at her and nodded still slightly freaked out that Dual was still in the nude. “But we are going to have to get you something else to wear, because your clothes are covered in our cum. Lucky for you I have some guy clothes in my house that will fit you perfectly” “Uh yeah just point me to the shower and leave the clothes in the bathroom.” Blaze replied. “Aw I thought we could take a shower together you know save water and stuff.” She replied teasingly, Blaze just gave her a straight face. “Joking the bathroom is the first door on the left.” “Thanks.” Blaze replied. “Oh and Dual?” “Yes?” “Let’s keep this on the hush hush.” “What are you embarrass of me?” “It’s not that it’s just-“ “Don’t worry I understand.” Blaze nodded his head at her then headed to the bathroom. To Blaze it seemed like very shower he got was refreshing, this one was not different. He basically was washing off all the dried blood and sex off him. Then he hear the door open, and thought that it was Dual but it was actually Octavia, she said something about Dual using the workplace shower downstairs and told her to drop off the clothes. Blaze just replied with a simple ‘sure’ but then he felt like someone was staring at his ass, but he decided to shake it off. Once he was finished showering he found a sky blue shirt and some black jeans, finally getting dressed then threw on his gear he made it into the kitchen where as he open the fridge there was nothing but a bottle of hot salsa and some chilli’s. Looking at his options he grabbed the salsa and start to down it. It was spicy at first but he got used to it, while he was devouring the spicy sauce Octavia came in and looked at him with disgust. “Ewww what are you doing.” She ask with a disgusted face. “Breakfast, there nothing in the fridge.” He replied calmly. “(Sigh) I love Dual, but she need to be more responsible, I guess I can take you both to a restaurant or something.” “Awesome!!!” Dual butted in. She look refreshed and smelled a lot better, she was wearing a green shorts and a white tank top. “Well lets go I’m starving” She said then headed outside. Both Blaze and Octavia gave her a questionable look then shrugged. The trio then headed to a nearby diner, then the waitress came to take their orders. “I’ll have the blue berry waffles. “Dual asked. “Extra syrup.” “I’ll have the same.” Octavia said. “Um I know this is going to sound weird but do you have bacon.” Blaze asked sheepishly. “You mean hay bacon?” the waitress replied. “No I mean bacon bacon.” “Oh, you’re a meat eater.” “Yeah that not a problem is it?” “No not really, you’re not the first meat eater I’ve seen.” “Whew, that’s a relief in that case I’ll have some bacon.” “What do you want with that?” “Nothing else really just the bacon and lots of it.” “So you want a plate full of bacon?” “Yes ma’am.” “Alright then your food will be out soon.” The waitress said then left. “You eat meat?” Octavia said in curious tone. “Yeah humans are omnivores so I can shift back and forth between meat and plants.” Blaze replied. “Whoa I guess you learn something new every day.” “Speaking of learning Blaze I've been meaning to ask you something.” Dual said. “Uh sure what is it?” Blaze replied. “Well I’m just wondering about your new weapon.” “Oh you mean my blaster rifle, well it’s the Mark 2 blaster rifle it’s a long range weapon that fires solar beams from these rechargeable energy magazines. It can also has more features like a grappling gun and stun gun, it’s basically a swiss army knife but in gun version.” “Whoa now that is badass.” Dual replied still in awe at his gun. Just then the waitress came back with their food. Then the three ate, as of that moment Blaze was in heaven he hadn’t had bacon since he got here and eating it was giving him a foodgasm to be honest it probably wasn't the best bacon but bacon none the less. Dual and Octavia had given him many questionable look but Blaze assured them that he was fine. Once they were finished Octavia paid the bill and the three headed out. While walking to their destination Blaze was thinking about the mission he accepted. ‘Man this is a pain in the ass not only is my weapon being copied but who know how many have an exact copy just like mine. Well after Octavia’s audition I’m going to have pay this Orientem a visit.’ Blaze thought. “Were here!!!” Octavia said with enthusiasm that snapped Blaze out of his thoughts. “Town Hall.” “Isn’t this the place were Nightmare Moon made her appearance?” Blaze asked. “Yes it is actually.” Dual said. “Well this is going to be the place where I audition.” Octavia replied then ran inside. “Now let’s go I don’t want to be late.” Once Octavia got signed it Blaze and Dual took their seats and listened to everypony play. Some were good and others were horrible but the most amusing part were the judges. They were all uptight and cruel they even made this beefy stallion cry like a baby. Then finally Octavia came out Blaze and Dual started to cheer until someone shushed them which they easily complied, not wanting to ruin Octavia’s chances. Octavia played so beautifully everything she did was in tune. It was smooth and majestic if Blaze could cry he’d probably do it right about now on the other hand Dual Steel was crying her eyes out but not making a single sound. Once it was over Blaze and Dual started to clap they didn’t care if anyone thought they were weird they just kept clapping. Then the judges laid out their verdict it was a complete no brainer when they said Octavia won her cello was what they had been looking for apparently most ponies in Ponyville only play the piano, guitar, drums, and violin, things that they already had so Octavia’s cello was perfect. Once that was over Octavia meet Blaze and Dual outside instantly Dual gave her cousin a big hug and congratulated her on a job well done while Blaze gave her a thumbs up. Dual then said that she would take all of them to the spa as Octavia’s treat for winning but Blaze decline and said he had to take care of some business. Dual was a little disappointed at first but got over it then went her separate was with Octavia. Now that Blaze was alone he took out the file he was given by Celestia and started to read about Orientem most of his records said that he had an average life but something was telling Blaze that this was utter bull shit but Blaze did have a lead there had to be something worth looking at this cottage that Orientem supposedly lived in. Once he made it to the edge of Ponyville he felt someone following him. Instantly he took out his rifle and said, “Alright come on out I know you following me and it doesn’t make any sense to hide.” Just then someone walked out of a nearby bush and instantly Blaze’s face was shocked. It was that Paradox soldier Delta 42 he was wearing his standard black and grey Paradox fatigues but the only difference was that instead of having the paradox insignia on his shoulder it had a crest moon instead. “Delta 42? What the hell are you doing here shouldn’t you be rotting in a jail or something?” “No actually the Princess gave me a second chance I work for Luna now I’m a part of her Nightmare squad a tactical group than deals with stealth and intense missions.” He replied. “You can’t be serious.” Blaze replied still trying to rap his head around the fact that the Princess just hired a Paradox soldier. “Oh I’m serious to be honest I was going to quit anyways. Decker always treated us like crap, hell he killed me the only reason I’m alive is because of Nightmare Moon.” “Well it’s great that you want to turn over a new leaf but why are you here?” “I’ve been assigned to be your back up in this operation.” “What, I told Celestia that I don’t need back up.” “Celestia didn’t make this order Luna did.” “Well look you can go back from where ever you came from because this is a solo mission.” “Sorry Blaze but I have order to assist you and I won’t disobey orders.” Blaze paused for a moment to think, part of him was saying to let Delta 42 tag along because you never know what can happen, while his other half was saying to kill delta on the spot. “(Sigh) you can come but any funny business and I will take you down without hesitation.” Blaze told him in a cold tone. “No problem.” Delta replied then lazily saluted. The two then continued walking to the path until Delta decided to break the ice. “So Blaze I need to know did you kill Decker?” Delta asked. “Yes.” Blaze replied. “Wow it must have been an intense battle.” “Meh, now I’ve got a question for you.” “Um, sure shoot.” “Were are the others?” “Who?” “The other Paradox soldiers, I know there are more of them I did fight them after all.” “Oh you mean Karen and Zack. Yeah there fine, there actually at the castle.” “Is that were all of you live now?” “Yeah, when we woke up the Celestia and Luna were there. They told us that we had a choice live peacefully or get banished to taturaus, obviously we took the better choice. We then asked for you and they told us that you were still unconscious.” “Yeah well getting poison in your chest then getting blasted by raw rainbow power does seem to have that effect not to mention I was crushed my debris and you broke a few of my ribs.” “Heh, sorry about that. But I hope that eventually we can come on good ter…” “We’re here.” Blaze interrupted. The two soldiers finally made it to the cottage but it looked abandon. Blaze decided to knock on the door but no one answer. Then just opened it since it was unlock both Blaze and Delta gave each other questionable looks then headed inside the inside was basically dark, dusty, and abandoned. “Looks like no one’s home.” Delta said. “Search the place for anything that could be a clue.” Blaze replied. “Roger that chief.” The two went their separate ways and search the house. It had been 20 minutes and Blaze hadn’t found anything. He was about to go to the next room until Delta called out. Blaze rushed over to the game room to see Delta trying to move a couch. “Hey a little help it seems to be stuck.” Delta said. Blaze nodded his head and picked up the other end of the couch. Once they moved the couch they found a metal door on the floor. Blaze opened it up and went inside with Delta right behind. Once they reach the secret room Blaze was in complete shock what he found it was a room full of blaster bows. “Jesus Christ he basically has an armoury to take on an army.” Blaze said. “Well at least we know Orientem is involved.” Delta said. “Yeah, check the room for any clue we might be able to find something on hi-“ “That won’t be necessary.” A voice said. The two soldiers turned around to find a unicorn stallion. He had a curly red mane and a silver coat, also he wore a black trench coat with grey pants and brown boots. “I take it that you’re Orientem?” Blaze asked while aiming his pistol. “Yes I am also don’t waste your time firing that thing this is just a holo-projection.” Orientem replied. “Alright well why are you doing this?” “Why am I doing this? Well I guess for the money. You see war isn't just about fighting for your country it’s a businesses and soldiers won't be tied to lands.” “But you're messing with weapons that are going to kill thousands of innocent lives.” “That’s not my problem.” “Well you do realize I'm going to have to stop you.” “Well you can’t stop me if you’re dead.” “What do you mean-“Blaze asked then was cut off by a beeping noise. He looked over to see the blaster bows flashing red. Delta we need to get out of here!!!” The two started to dash out of the house. As they reached the front door the house exploded making both of them fly out of the house. Delta got up and brushed himself off. “I can't believe we made it out alive.” He said. “Yeah, I almost thought we’d died for a second.” Blaze replied. “So what happens now?” “Well we find out where the weapons are being made then destroy them.” > Blaze's Day Off > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It had been almost a month since Blaze and Delta 42 escaped Orientem’s cottage. During that month Blaze had done only two thing straight help Fortune get those time gems and find out information about Orientem and his plans. But right now Blaze, wearing a white shirt, grey cargo’s, and black combat boots, was running over rooftop in Saddle Arabia while being chased by mercenaries that were launching arrows and magical blasts. “Get back here you thief, so we can cut your fingers off.” Said one of the mercenaries then fired another blast. “Not on your life pal.” Blaze replied then vaulted over a ledge. “Drop dead!!!” Another Mercenary yelled then fired three arrows. Blaze instantly jumped over the first two arrows then back flipped over the last arrow. “Vanilla I’m going to need an evac now!!!” Blaze said then threw a red smoke grenade on the ground. “Follow the red smoke.” “Roger that Blaze.” Vanilla said on the Hawkeye. “We finally caught up to you human.” A mercenary said. “Give us what you stole and we will make sure your death is painless.” “Yeah I’m going to leave death out as an option.” Blaze replied then pulled out his tomahawk and knife while getting into his combat stance. “Are you serious this is a one sided fight.” A mercenary said then pulled out his sword. “Your right, you going to need more men.” Blaze replied then threw his tomahawk into one of the mercenaries who instantly fell down. Blaze then rushed two of the other mercenaries, he side kicked in the head instantly knocking him out the other tried to thrust his blade at Blaze but Blaze easily dodged to the side and spin kicked him off the roof. Blaze then rolled over and got his tomahawk he saw another mercenary coming from behind, Blaze merely swept the leg then punched him to the ground unconscious. Just then the Nimbus Ranger swooped right in and Vanilla opened the door. “Blaze get in!!!” She yelled with haste. Blaze nodded then took out his blaster rifle and started to lay down cover while backing up into the Ranger, then Vanilla pulled out a crossbow and started to cover Blaze. “Vanilla get back inside its too dangerous!!!” Blaze yelled. “Don’t worry I’ve got this!!!” Vanilla replied. But as she was laying down covering fire for Blaze. A unicorn archer put an explosive spell on his arrow and fired it at Vanilla. Blaze saw all of this and ran towards Vanilla. “Vanilla look out!!!” He yell out. “What?” She said until she was the arrow coming towards her. Blaze then pushed her back into the Ranger but got hit by the explosion and flew into the Ranger. “Fort get us out of here and get a medical kit!!!” She yelled in worry. Once Fortune got to higher altitude he put the Nimbus Ranger in auto-pilot and wheeled himself to the back where he found a Vanilla and Blaze sitting on the floor. “Hey what happen is everyone alright?” Fortune ask with concern. Blaze replied by tossing him the time gem in his lap, Blaze then gave him a thumbs up. “Mission accomplished boss.” Blaze said then winced in pain. “Are you okay Blaze?” Fortune asked with concerned then looked over at Blaze’s left arm. He gasped in horror to find that the whole of Blaze’s arm was covered in 3rd degree burns. “Blaze your arm need medical attention stat!!!” “It can’t be that bad.” Blaze said then look at his arm.” Sweet Mother Teresa on the hood of a Mercedes Benz my arm is messed up!!!” “Yeah how are you not in agonizing pain right now?” Vanilla asked. “Well before every mission I activate my Hawkeye and dull my pain receptors so I don’t really feel much pain.” Blaze replied. “Well let me see if I can at least help.” Fortune said then charged his horn instantly covering Blaze’s arm with his magic. “What are you doing?” Blaze ask curiously. “It’s a spell that should help for the burn all I have to do now is bandage it up.” Fortune replied then start to wrap up Blaze’s arm. “Thanks Fortune.” “No problem but it looks like you will have to take time off for it to heal so we will probably have to postpone the next trip until your arm heals.” “Nah I’ll heal up in a week, fire wolves have a small healing factor.” Blaze said the stood up letting his bandage hand hang limply. While it’s not instant and it leaves scaring it is faster than the average human heck by the time we reach back to Ponyville I will be able to move my arm and fingers.” “Amazing but even if you hadn’t gotten injured I still want you to take some time off you’ve been working non-stop whether it’s been getting treasure, finding a time gem location, or getting lead on Orientem.” “Yeah some R&R does sound great.” “Well it’s settled you are taking a vacation.” The trip back was basically quiet Fortune decided to fly the Nimbus manually, Vanilla had decided to read a book, and Blaze was watching movies on his Hawkeye. After a few hours passed Blaze got up and noticed that his arm could move then walked over to Fortune who was still flying the Ranger. “How the arm?” Fortune asked. “It’s better I can move it now.” Blaze replied the sat next to him “You weren’t joke when you said you heal fast.” “Nope.” Blaze said then got serious. “Fortune sometimes I feel like this is my fault.” “How do you mean Blaze?” “Well if I never came to Equis the blaster bows would never exist and people wouldn’t have to die by them.” “Blaze but what would happen if you didn’t come to Equis? I mean I would still be at the Sweet Bean probably sulking that I can’t walk. You can’t always focus on what if you need to focus on the now that’s why I hate time travel.” “What does time travel have to do with this?” “Ponies want to travel back in time to change a mistake that they made but sometimes we have to consider if we go back and change it all the good things that have happen to use also vanish. I feel that mistakes and death happen for a reason.” “Wow I’ve never looked at it that way before.” “Yeah well I don’t think much of us do, a…nd we’re here Golden Oak Library.” Fortune said. As Blaze walked out of the Ranger Fortune said. “Don’t worry we will find Orientem.” Then flew off. “I hope we do Fortune I hope we do.” Blaze said then went inside. When he got inside he found Twilight and Rarity siting down drinking tea. “Hello Blaze it’s been forever.” Rarity said. “Hi Rarity good to see you to.” Blaze replied then look over to Twilight. “Hello Twibright.” He said sourly. “Don’t you have something better to do than be a plothole?” Twilight replied. “Go to hell Sparkle by the way do we have any wrapping bandages?” “Yeah I keep some in the bathroom why?” “Well I kinda burnt my arm and I’ll need to change it every now and then.” “Of course an idiot like you would burn your arm this is what happen when you go out all the time.” “Yeah at least I go out unlike you who stays inside and reads books I mean if you didn’t have friends to take you out you would be an a annoy hermit bitch but since you do your just a bitch!!!” (Gasp)”Well you’re just an idiot with no friends!!!” “Raaagh you’re so annoying I’m going to my room where I don’t need to see your stupid purple face!!!” Blaze yell then walked to his room. “That’s the smartest thing you have done today!!!” Twilight replied then looked over to Rarity who had a completely stunned face. “What?” “Darling I know you and Blaze your disagreements but don’t you think you should be trying to get along I mean you and him do live under the same roof.” Rarity said. “Plus if you get on hi good side he might be of some use to you like maybe when you’re in heat you could-“ “Don’t even finished that sentence, like I would ever do that with him.” Twilight said with a hint of a blush. “Well at least try and make friends with him I mean he was taken away from his home and I doubt he is able to get back he’s probably going through a tough time dear not to mention you still need to make Blaze open up to you didn’t the Princess want to know more about him.” Rarity said then started to head to the door. “All I’m saying is that while he may not show it he needs someone plus you two live under the same roof and I bet you don’t know a single thing about him anyways see you at the party.” “Yeah I guess but why do I have to go again? I mean it’s a party for a filly.” Twilight said. “Twilight Diamond Tiara’s party is a great way to interact with other ponies I mean stallions and mares are also going to be there darling plus it would give you a chance to actually get acquainted with the town.” Rarity said then walked out. After the talk with Rarity Twilight decided to catch up with some reading she kept thinking about what Rarity told her to do about Blaze, maybe she did need to be nicer to him. So she decided to give it a try and invite him to the party she opened the door to find Blaze only wearing black cargo’s and his boots, she saw all the scars on his body then started to get curious about how he got them maybe Rarity was right maybe she did need to get to know Blaze better for all she knew he could be a psychotic killer, sitting on his bed trying to wrap up the bandage she also saw how burns his arm was. Blaze then looked up to see Twilight with her face in surprise. “Don’t you ever knock Twibright?” Blaze said in a snarky tone. Twilight was about to reply with an insult by walked and sat next to him then used her magic to wrap Blaze’s arm up properly. Blaze was caught off guard by this and didn’t know how to reply. “I believe the words your looking for is thank you.” Twilight said. “Yeah uh thanks.” Blaze replied is confused. “But why did you help me normally you hate my guts?” “Yeah well maybe I’m tired of arguing. Look there a party going on at Sugarcube Corner and I’m just about to head out do you want to come?” “Sure I guess.” Blaze replied with uncertainly then put on a white t-shirt holster his pistol to the side of his legs and followed Twilight out. The walk was silent and awkward neither Blaze nor Twilight said anything. Blaze wasn’t sure how to approach this and Twilight was trying to think of a way to speak. “So mind if I ask you something?” Blaze said. “Sure.” Twilight replied nervously. “Why are you doing this I mean asking me to come with you to the party and wrapping up my arm I thought you hated my guts?” “Well I guess I thought we could call a truce.” “Truce? Well this is unexpected.” “Look we don’t have to friends but we can at least hold down on the arguing.” “I think we can do that.” Blaze replied then shook hands. “Wow I never expected a peace treaty with you Twibr- Twilight.” “Must be weird for you to say my name correctly.” Twilight said with a smirk. All of a sudden an orange filly on a scooter zoomed right pass them and snatched Twilights purse. “Gah my purse they jack my purse.” “(Sigh) I’ll get it just meet me at the party.” Blaze said then ran off after them. Whoever they were they definitely knew the Ponyville’s layout since they kept swerving and constantly making constant sharp turns everywhere they went. Just as he was passing a Neighpony they knocked over some nearby crates Blaze easily dodge them but lost sight of the thief. But manage to end up in a abandon dead-end all he saw a dumpster. “The dumpster to obvious.” Blaze said then moved the dumpster to find a weaken wall. “Normally I would use my right hand but its damage good thing I can adjust.” He said then punched through it with his good hand grabbing the filly and dragging her out. She had a purple short mane, orange fur, orange short sleeve hoodie, purple shorts and white sneakers. “Hey let me go you bastard!!!” The filly said while squirming in Blaze’s grip. “Well you certainly have a mouth don’t you.” Blaze replied. “Now I will be taking that.” Blaze then took the purse. “What did you hope to accomplish by this?” The filly just look at him with an annoyed silence look but then her stomach growled. “Well that answers my question, look don’t you have parent’s to feed you or something.” More silence that was I needed to know. “Oh um sorry.” I say with a little sympathy. “Look there’s a party happening at Sugarcube Corner I’m sure if you sneak in you can get some food of something.” She nods and races off. A few minute later Blaze is at the party Twilight see him and walks over. “Hey did you get my purse back.” She asked. “Yeah it was just some hungry kid so I didn’t bother to report it to the authorities.” Blaze replied coolly. “We thanks.” She said then walked off to meet some ponies. Blaze was trying to enjoy the party but kept getting asking constant questions about himself and his species. The first time he didn’t mind but after a while it started to get old. There were a few ponies that would just talk to him about other thing like jobs and if was enjoy Equestria but nothing that really interested him. The only thing that had actually brought interest is when he saw the orange filly from earlier and two other stand up to some rich pink filly about not having cutie-marks after an hour or so the party had ended. Blaze decided to help with the clean-up Mrs. Cake thanked him then went into the back, Pinkie Pie then show up. “Hiya Blaze did you enjoy the party?” Pinkie asked. “I was fine I guess.” Blaze replied. “You guess?” Pinkie said with a worried look. “I thought it was fun is everything okay Blaze?” “(Sigh) everything is fine.” “It doesn’t look like it.” “Look Pinkie will you stop prying into my problems!” Blaze replied agitated but saw Pinkie looking slightly hurt. “(Sigh) I’m sorry Pinkie it’s just been a rough month.” “You know it’s better to talk about you problems than keep it bottled up silly.” “Fine, look when I first got here somepony took blue prints of my weapon then started to mass produce them. Now ponies are being hurt by my weapon the ponies responsible for it are untraceable and I have searching since I’ve gotten here also all those closest to me are gone forgive me if I’m not into parties.” “What do you mean gone?” Before Blaze could respond there was a loud crash coming from the back room “I’ll show you what I mean later.” Blaze said then followed the noise with Pinkie Pie behind him. When the got to the back they found Mr. Cake unconscious with a black eye while on the ground and two earth pony stallion, one had blue fur and white short mane while the other had brown fur and an orange buzz cut mane both of them wore black and red track suits, groping Mrs. Cake. “Let me go you perverts!!!” Mrs Cake said while on the verge of tears. Blaze turned around to see an enraged Pinkie who had grabbed a knife and was about to charge over there. But Blaze stopped her. “Let me handle this if you end up killing them you will remember their faces for as long as you live.” Blaze said. Pinkie dropped the knife which caused some noise that alerted to two stallions. “Well well well Platinum Storm it looks like you won’t have to wait your turn after all there’s a a nice mare over there to have fun with. The Stallion said “Yeah but you’ll have to go through me first.” Blaze replied. “But before I kick your ass I would like to know who you are so I can deliver your bodies to you next of kin.” “Oh you’re that human that beat Steel Puncher well my name is Bronze Bucker and well you already know him.” Bronze replied then pointed over to Platinum Storm. “Why are you here?!?!” Pinkie asked furiously. “Well your boss Mr. Cake has not accepted our gang’s protection and as such he need to be persuaded.” “So you and Steel Puncher are just a bunch of common thugs” Blaze said with disgust. “No we are business men.” Bronze Bucker replied then cracked his knuckles. “Now you may have beaten Steel Puncher but I’m a lot stronger than him so don’t even think about trying to play hero.” All Blaze did was smirk. “That’s cute you think that because your stronger than some two bit gangster your capable to take me down.” Blaze then walked over to Bronze and looked him in the eyes. “Let Mrs. Cake go, leave and never come back.” “Or wha-“Is what Bronze tried to say until Blaze decked him in the face and dropped Mrs. Cake. “Are you okay?” Blaze knelt down and asked her. She nodded and then crawled over to her husband to make sure he was okay. “So of a bitch you caught me off guard I won’t let that happen again.” Bronze said then slipped his brass knuckles on. “When I done with you they won’t be able to tell if your face is your plot Platinum stay out of the he’s mine.” He said then charged at Blaze. Bronze started to throw precise and quick jabs at Blaze. But Blaze was merely blocking them with little Bronze could see his attack were not working and decided to play dirty by picking up a nearby glass bottle and smashing against Blaze’s bandage arm. Unfortunately it had no effect Blaze could only give a devilish smirk then said. “My turn.” Blaze then proceed by grabbing Bronze by the head and kneeing him in the face. While Bronze dazed and disoriented Blaze then gave him a powerful uppercut sending Bronze outside unconscious. Terrified that his partner was easily taken down Platinum pulls out a blaster bow. “Everyone get down.” Pinkie and the Cakes listen to Blaze’s order and hits the deck. Platinum then fire and a bunch of blaster fire scattered all over the place. Normally Blaze would have just used his pistol but thought that is wasn’t worth it. Instead he picked up a nearby kitchen knife and threw it after Platinum hitting him in the shoulder. Platinum yelled in pain and the knife stuck him, Blaze then walked over grabbe the handle of the knife handle and started to twist the blade in Platinum’s shoulder Platinum stared to yell in pain. “That was only the first helping now tell me where you got this from.” “I ain’t no snitch monkey boy.” Platinum replied. “Look I know over one thousands ways to make someone talk and in that thousand I know ways to torture someone just make it easier on yourself and tell me.” Blaze said but got no response. “Fine have it your way, Pinkie fill up the sink and add some lemon juice to it.” Pinkie got up and did it without saying a word. Blaze then grabbed Platinum and brought him to the sink. “Last chance.” No response was made. Blaze then dunked Platinum’s head into the lemon water and didn’t let him up until he started to squirm them pulled him up. “Ready to talk?” All Blaze could get was Platinum gasping for air while trying to rub his eye from the stinging lemon. “I guess not the dunked his head back in and waited two minute then pulled it back out. “How about now?” “M…Maneha..ten (cough) I…I got it in Manehatten!!!” Platinum manage to say is a raspy voice. “That’s a start keep talking.” Blaze said. “T…they have a weapon expo in the abandon subways that all I know I swear!!!” Blaze the dropped him and said. “Get out of here and take your friend also if I ever find out that your gang was here causing trouble I will make sure end your pathetic existence.” Platinum then picked up Bronze and ran out. “I guess it was a good idea for me to go to the party after all.” He then look at Pinkie Pie who way still shaken up by the event that just occurred. “You okay Pinks.” “Yeah I’ll be fine but did you have to be so rough with him?” She replied. “He had important information that I need to get.” “Well thank you anyways you’re a true friend Blaze but you never explained to me by what those closest to you are gone.” “Right well we need to go to the Everfree forest for me to explain.” “Well I’ll tell Mrs. Cake that I’m head out.” After walking out of Ponyville and into the Everfree forest Blaze took Pinkie Pie to a waterfall where she saw three small black boxes bolted into the ground. Blaze then knelt down and took out his dead team member dog tags then inserted them into the black boxes slots. A projection of Rafik, Alex, and Jenny showed up. “Who are they?” Pinkie asked in awe. “They are my old teammates I grew up with them and fought alongside them in almost every battle. We laugh together and we cried together.” Blaze replied then point to Rafik. “His name was Rafik he always was the jokes guy in the group you two might had gotten along if he was here.” Blaze then pointed to Alex. “That was Alex he was more of the quiet type but always got stuff done and was an excellent cook.” “What about her?” Pinkie said then pointed to Jenny. Blaze instantly turned depressed Pinkie Pie realize this. “If you don’t feel like talking about her you don’t have to Blaze I’m sorry if I pried.” “Her name was Jenny she was always bringing a bright light to my spirit she was a kind person always looking out for people first then herself.” Blaze said pained. “These three we considered hero’s and will always be remember.” Blaze said then saluted for a good minute he then turned to she Pinkie saluting as well. The two then got out of the forest and where walking in town. “I guess when I get home I’ll have to thank Twilight. Had she not asked me to come to the party I wouldn’t have gotten the information.” “And you manage to fend of those meanie thugs from Sugarcube Corner. I mean had you not been there I might had done something I would have regretted.” Pinkie said. “Well I have to go see you around Blaze.” “Bye Pinkie.” Blaze replied. Once Pinkie was out of sight Blaze opened up his Hawkeye and called Delta 42. “Hey this is Blaze.” “Hello Blaze what’s up?” “I’ve got a lead on the blaster bows get us a train to Manehatten by tomorrow bring you team, wear suits, and silence weapons we need this mission to be covert also we need to disguise our self as ponies so see if the princess have and disguises spells.” “Roger that Delta out.”
