"RING! RING! RING!" The alarm clock rang. A figure arose from his bed, rubbing his eyes, trying to find the source of the sound. "Ughhh, 5 more minutes..." He mumbled, as he lay back down on his bed. The alarm clock paid no attention to the man's words as it continued to rang. The man, seemingly have had enough, proceeded to smash the alarm clock. The machine finally stopped its assault. The mysterious figure got off his bed and stretched. It was another normal day for him.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Breakfast, Breakfast, Breakfast!" I said aloud to myself as I made my way to the canteen. I just finished putting on my clothes and made my way out of the Boys' Dorm.
As I reached the bustling canteen, I hear a familiar voice call out to me, " Yo Chris! Over here!" My roomate/best friend, Adrian, was calling out to me at one of the tables.
We had met during our highschool years and had grown closer ever since. I made my way to the table, "Jeez, do you have to yell so early in the freaking morning?"
Adrian just laughed and responded, "C'mon dude! It's Sunday! We get a free day off! I'm finally glad to be out of this shithole"
To those of you who don't know, every Sunday and Monday, we get a free day off. Which means that we get to leave campus and all that good stuff. I usually just hang out at my club though. There's nothing much for me to do out there in the real world. I haven't got a job, my family lives far away from me, and the only thing I have from my family is a gun I keep under my bed. My father gave it to me before I left for college, saying that it is for protection. I never really used it unless I'm out with my bike. Yeah I know it's boring but hey! At least I get to practice my sword fighting. That's my club by the way. Swordfighting, it might seem fun to you but let me tell you...when you first join it, it fucking sucks. They teach you the basics and stuff like learning how to do the proper stance, learning how to handle the blade. It's a nightmare, but once you complete it, you get to handle the real deal. Anyways, if I'm bored, I can just take my bike for a spin around town. Seems to always cure my boredom. I'm not talking about a bicycle by the way.
Anyways, I told my friend, "Yeah, yeah. I know you got your family to visit or some shit." Adrian chuckled, "Damn right!"
After breakfast, me and Adrian exchange our goodbyes as he left to go visit his family. I walked towards my club homeroom. As I neared there, I could hear a familiar tune play out...
~My Little Pony~ ~I used to wonder what friendship could be!~ ~Myyyyyyyyyy~
"Is that? No wait...what the fuck!?" I thought to myself as I rushed towards the door of my club. I yanked the door opened and found one of the members, Connor, watching an episode of My Little Pony on his phone! "Dude...What.The.Fuck." I muttered out.
He looked up from his phone and grinned at me sheepishly. "Hehe, H-hey dude! Wh-what's up?" He said to me trying to act normal. I could see through his bullshit.
"You motherfucker," I said to him. Now for those of you who are confused to why I said that, let me explain. A few days ago, Connor AKA The hypocrite fuck, told me off for watching My Little Pony. This motherfucker told me that Princess Luna was not best Princess. At that moment I wanted to rip his head off. He basically went on about how the show was for little girls and that people like him who are, 'Grown Man' , don't watch childish shows. I told him he should not criticize something he hasn't experienced. He just kept going on and on about his ramble.
So now, back to the situation. I have three options what I can do to him. Option A : Beat the shit out of him. Option B : Let it go (Frozen-Style) or Option C : Challenge him to a swordfighting duel. Alright, so Option B was never gonna happen. I'm am getting revenge on this fucker. Option A seems like a good idea, but it would probably get me expelled...so that left me with Option C. Meh, fuck it. Let's put my skills to the test!
"Connor Smith, I, Christopher Plainfield challenge you to a SwordFight battle tomorrow after school. The winner gets to make a forfeit for the loser!" I bellowed towards him.
He stared at me, wide-eyed before proceeding to nod his head and saying, "Fine, I'll accept your challenge. Good luck being my slave for a week!" Ohh, I see how it is. This cocky motherfucker was definitely going down. I then headed towards the training room to practice. I chose my wooden sword, The 'Red Avian'.
Now let me quickly explain something about these wooden swords. They are replicas of real swords. Once we finish the basics, you basically get your own blade. You can either make a custom blade from a shop or you can pick a sword that the college has to offer. I chose to customize my own blade from a well known anime shop. What? Don't judge. So basically, the college will then make a replica of your sword but this time, they will make it into wooden swords. You catch my drift? The wooden swords are basically replicas of our real swords. They don't allow us to use real shit. We only use the real stuff when we are practicing on our own.
Alright so moving on, chose my 'Red Avian' and started walking towards the dummy that was in the middle of the room. Once i was in a close enough distance, I started to slash at the dummy. Bits of hay started to fall down from the dummy as I continued my relentless attack. I kept slashing at the dummy and even did a few rolls to simulate I was dodging the dummy's attack.
"STAR BURST STREAM!!!" I yelled as I did my final attack. Finally, after I was done with my slaughter, I looked around to see the destruction I had cause. There was bits of hay everywhere. The dummy...didn't even look like a dummy. It looked destroyed. "Ah shit...probably have to clean this up...." I thought to myself. I did not think of the consequences did I? Now I have to clean all this up...Fuck it.
"Phew! Finally done!" I was finally finished cleaning up the mess I made when I realized it was already sundown. I then place my sword back to where it belonged and started to walk towards the Boys' Dorm. Can't wait for tomorrow. That cocky bitch is going down! FOR EQUESTERIA!
In case some of you were wondering what 'Red Avian' looks like,
After a good night sleep, I woke up fresh and early. I showered and put on my signature clothes, a black T-shirt and a grey hoodie, trousers which were fit for running and fighting. My red Nike shoes. I then headed out to the canteen to get an early well deserved breakfast. As I was getting closer to the canteen, I could smell the scent of bacon and eggs. I licked my lips in anticipation. Once I was there, I grabbed a tray and a plate and started piling up the food on my plate. After picking out the food, I grabbed a quick glass of water and sat down at a table. I looked down at my plate which was filled with eggs, bacon and bread. I started devouring the food like a hungry wolf. At the corner of my eye, I could see people looking at me as if I had no manners. Well, excuse me for being hungry! Assholes...anyways, after i was done with my food, I quickly gulped down the water to quench my thirst. I then set down the plate and glass on a 'used plates' basket. I then made my way to the clubroom arena.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After a couple of minutes, I reached my destination. I then made my way inside and saw Connor in the middle of the arena. He was smirking as he saw me enter. That cocky motherfucker.
Alright lemme explain real quick, the 'clubroom arena' as we call it was basically a huge room with mats laid down on the floor. It was where we would practice our sparring. The mats was in a square-like position but it wasn't covering up the whole room. If anyone wanted to watch us spar, they could just sit down outside the mat's perimeter.
Anyways, I took my weapon, 'The Red Avian' and took my stance in front of him. He looked at me with his weapon, 'BluesEyes', a short,sharp blade. (Which was made of wood of course) and said, "Ready to get your ass kicked?" Oh this motherfucker.
"Come at me," That was all it took for him to come running at me.
Our blades clashed together and we held it there. I then let the pressure of our blades go and slashed the sword at his side. Connor dodged my attack and swung his blade and my shoulder. I managed to parry it with another swing and thrust my sword towards his thigh. He rolled away from my attack and kicked my chest causing me to stumble backwards. He saw the opportunity and thrust his sword towards my chest. I managed to maintain my balance and blocked his attack with my blade. I then started swinging my sword at him relentlessly but none of my attacks registered as he managed to dodge or block all of him.
"He's tough," I thought to myself.
Connor then started swinging his blade from the top in hopes of hitting my head. I managed to counter his attack by blocking his attack and kicking his knee. He lost his balance and fell down. It left him wide-opened and I stabbed my sword towards his chest. He saw the attack coming and rolled away before the attack hit. He then stood back up and swung at my neck and managed to hit me. I fell down towards the floor and managed to get up before he stabbed his sword at my chest. I started to take a more tactical approach. I started attacking from all sides in hopes to confuse him from where I was attacking. He got tired of all the blocking and started his assault. He nailed a blow to my chest and I was sent stumbling backwards. He then started running at me in hopes of thrusting me in the chest with his sword. I sidestepped his attack and managed to land a blow on his left hip. I then uppercut him in the jaw with my left hand and it sent him flying backwards. He quickly recovered from the attack and started charging at me once more.
"Why is he using the same attack?" I thought to myself.
As he was getting closer he swung his blade towards my chest but I managed to block it. Then, he surprised me by punching my stomach and and kicking me in the chest. It made me fell and I was stunned on the floor. He then stabbed the sword towards my chest. I could see the blade in slow-motion as it was about to stab my chest,
Is this how it was going to end? With me losing? Something snapped in me, I started to feel my body heat up and then, out of nowhere, I saw flames coming out of my hand. It gave me a boost to roll to my side and I saw his blade hit the ground. My body started to recover and before I know it, I was already standing feet.
"WHAT THE FUCK!? I yelled in my head. I saw Connor turning his head towards me, his face full of confusion. I then snapped back to my senses and remembered that I was still in the duel. I had to end this now. I charged towards Connor, who was still standing there in confusion and striked a clean blow in his chest. He was sent sprawling on the ground and before he could recover, I kicked his blade away from his grasp and aimed my sword at his neck.
"Any last words?" I said to him dramatically.
He smirked and responded, "Alright, Alright. You win." BOOM!
I retracted my blade and held a hand to pull him up. He accepted it and stood up. Fuck yeah! We put our blades back and walked out the arena.
"Dude! How did you dodge my final attack? I stunned you!" He asked me.
I chuckled, "Haha, I don't even know dude,"
We both laughed. He then stopped walking, his face turning into one of worry. He asked me, "Shit. This means I have to do a forfeit....PLEASE DONT MAKE ME STRIP OFF MY CLOTHES!!!" I thought to myself. I had plenty of other ideas to do to him...but, he is a brony and we don't do that shit. Hmmm.
"Actually, you know what, I have a better idea. You have to say that, Princess Luna is Best Princess," I said with a smirk. He looked at me wide-eyed and muttered out, "Pincess Luna Is Best Princess.."
"What was that? I couldn't hear you??" Man, being a dick is awesome. Not literally...that would suck.
"I said...Princess Luna Is Best Princess..."
"Huh? What did you say?" I was not going down until he admitted it properly.
"I SAID PRINCESS LUNA IS BEST PRINCESS..." He sighed.
"Much better! You're free to go!" I said to him. As I was walking away, I could hear him beg for forgiveness and that Princess Twilight was the best princess. Not Luna.
Oh boy. I just made him go against his favourite Princess! As I walked back towards the Boys' Dorm, I saw that the time was still 4:30. Too early for me to go to bed. Oh well, time to take my bike out for a spin!
I opened my room in the Boys' Dorm and collected my bike keys. I also took my phone and wallet that had $45. As I was about to leave, I remembered something...my gun. I took it from under my bed and saw the light from my window reflect off it's black surface. It was a Century K100 Mk7 Semi Auto Handgun. It used 9mm bullets. It held 15 rounds. I was not suppose to have this weapon in campus, in fact, I could get thrown in jail. But if they didn't find it...what was the problem? I put on my gun hostler. I was about to slide the pistol in but then realized what a dumb mistake that was. I took a black bag with me and hid the gun in there. I also threw in a couple of magazines in there. Maybe I could get some extra practice sessions for my swordfighting. I glanced towards my bed and saw my 'Red Avian'. No, not the wooden one, but the real deal. Now this weapon was allowed on campus...to some people, including me. Perks of being a swordfighting member I guess. I quickly took the sword and slung it over my shoulder and onto my back. It had it's own hostler. I then zipped up the bag, grabbed it and headed out. I locked my door and headed towards my motorcycle which was parked outside the college building.
"Ahh, glad to see you bikie!" I said towards my bike. It was a simple model, the Suzuki Boulevard M50. It was perfect for cruising and such. I turned on it's engine and it roared to life. I then mounted it (God that sounded wrong) and started cruising around town. Time to test the limits. I drove around my town as the wind blew against my hoodie. I felt a sense of relaxing as I felt the wind blow against my face. The sun was about to set but at least it wasn't going to rain...
"Oh god dammit..." Welp, it rained...a lot....I was currently underneath a bus station as it was the only shelter that was available. My bike was parked to the side of the road, taking the heavy assault from the rain. Thunder struck a couple of times, and they both didn't scare me....maybe just a little.....okay both of them scared me. Shit, I was probably about to get stuck here for couple of hours....at least I bought my phone! Time to play some 'Rolling Sky'!
Holy shit! How long has it been?! Damn! Ahh fuck this. I walked towards my bike, the rain wetting my hoodie and bag. I started the engine and drove away.
"Fuck it! FUCK IT! I'm going back no matter what. Through the rain people!" I thought to myself. I can't take it! This is taking to long. As the speed of my bike grew, I could feel the wind pushed against my face become more harder. I didn't think anything was going to happen until a lightning flashed in front of my eyes. My eyes was blinded for a second as I feel my bike slip and slide on the road. My knee was scraping on the slippery road as I fell. I was hugging my bike while sliding against the road.
"FUCK! MY KNEE!" I screamed in my head as I clenched my teeth in pain. Right after the lightning flash my eyes, I heard the thunder follow with it. My body electrocuted from the shock and I screamed in pain. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I blacked out.
I opened my eyes groggily. "Where the fuck am I?" I said aloud to myself as looked around my surroundings. I was in.....a forest? What the hell? Did I crash here? I looked towards my left and saw my bike. "BIKIE!" I yelled as I crawled up to it. My knee still hurt like a bitch but at least it stopped bleeding. My bike was badly damaged. there were scratches everywhere and the mirror-view mirror glass broke. I shoved the bike key into the ignition hole and twisted it. I pulled the handle as I pressed on a button.
"SCHRHHHH-SPLOMMCLONK!" Okay...that didn't work. Oh god please! I tried it one more time and this time, "SCHRRHHHHH-VRROOOMMMM!" YES! Success! Phew! For a second there I thought my bike broke. I twisted the key back to it's original place and yanked it out. I shoved it down my pocket and walked away. I picked up my bag and decided it was better to push my bike to somewhere....somewhere not here I guess. Where am I anyways?
As I pushed my bike further into...the forest? Was I in a forest? Whatever, doesn't matter right now. Although, I feel like I'm forgetting something. Lemme do a quick mental check. So I have my gun, my bag, my bike, my sword....my sword...MY SWORD! HOW THE FUCK COULD I FORGET THAT! I left my bike on the side and ran back from where I came from. Okay now where is it? AH! There it is!
I walked towards my sheathed sword and as soon as I picked it up, I heard the noise that sent a shiver up my spine. "AOOOOO" Shit....wolves? Seriously? C'mon! How the fuck is there wolves here?
My questions were cut short as a bunch of wolves hopped out of the trees and bushes. They were all...made of wood? What the fuck. This seems to get weirder the longer it drags on. Whatever, looks like I have company now. There were five of them to be exact. If they wanna mess with me, game on!
I unsheathed my sword, the blade seemingly glowing with power. As the first wolf jump on me, I sidestepped his attack and sliced his head off. His whole body seemed to disintegrate and the wooden parts dropped to the ground. That looks famili-" My thoughts were cut short as a wolf pounced on me. I felt his claw dig on my chest as he opened his mouth, preparing for the bite. I kicked it off before it could go in for the kill. I then followed it with a strike to the face! His whole body did the same as the previous wolf. This time, the remaining three wolves decided to surround me. They were trying to overwhelm me by jumping all at once. Not happening bitch.
I came in for the attack as I ran towards the first wolf in my vision. It caught him by surprise and I managed to land a blow on his face but he didn't disintegrate. He shook the attack off and tried to pounce on me but I dodged his attack by rolling to the side. I forgot about the two other wolves and it caught me by surprise when one of them bit me in the leg. "AUGH!" I yelled in pain and I feel the blood trickle down my leg. That motherfucker is going down. I stomped my other foot on his head, trying to pry him off my leg but then, another wolf bit my hand which was holding my sword. I lost grip on my weapon as he clenched his jaw tighter on my arm, sinking his teeth deeper.
"MOTHERFUCKKKK!" The pain was unbearable. I tried my best to get them off my body by shaking them, punching them and kicking them but nothing worked. I saw the third wolf at the corner of my eye, waiting for me to fall down, before devouring me. I wasn't going to let that happen. No. Not yet. I suddenly felt a burst of energy and I felt my whole body heating up. I saw the wolves, releasing their grip a little. All of a sudden, my body burst into flames. I felt my body getting hotter, but I wasn't in pain from the flames. In fact, they seem to calm me down. I saw that the wolves were on fire and were rolling on the ground. It was futile as they burnt to death, leaving only a pile of burnt sticks. The last wolf remained. He had the look of fear in his eyes as my body was in flames. I took a step towards him, he backed away. I then retrieved my sword from the ground, my body still on fire and I threw my sword towards the wolf. The fiery sword flew through the air and struck it directly in the face. I could see his the sword lodged into what was left of his right eye and quickly set the wolf's body on fire. the fire burned quickly, showing no mercy as the wolf burnt to death. I took back my sword and sheathed it as the flames on my body died down.
What the fuck was happening.....seriously. I'm in the middle of nowhere, wolves attack me and now I have magical fire power...great. Fan-fucking-tastic. Let's just try to make the best of it. The wolves seems really familiar. i feel like I've seen them before...somewhere...like on a TV show or something. Whatever, let's just focus on surviving and finding our way out of here. At least I have my trusted 'Avian' with me and my pistol and my bike. Oh, and my phone which was, 78%. Good enough. Okay, now let's find our way back to where I parked the bike shall we!
"Where am I even going?" I went back to my bike and started pushing it until I realized I didn't even know where I was going. Ah crap. the sun looks like it's about to set soon. Better camp somewhere. I started to walk towards the path that was visible to my eye and within a few minutes, I had reached a river.
"Well, this seems interesting," I said aloud. Maybe this would be a good spot to camp? Beside a river, where I can get water easily. Alright, it's decided then! I'll camp here.
I started to remove the items from my bag. My sweet little gun, which had a magazine currently in it. I looked into my bag and found 6 more magazines. good enough. I looked towards my bike which was parked against a tree. It had scratches and dents everywhere. My poor little thing! At least it still worked. I put my gun in my hostler and 2 of the magazines at each respective places. The rest of the magazines, I left them in the bag and zipped it up. Alright, next up is my sword. i unsheathed the beautiful weapon and looked as it's shiny blade reflected against my face.
"Alright, it's in working order!" I thought to myself as i sheathed the weapon back to it's rightful place.
I think it's time for me to take a nap. I laid down the cold muddy ground. I could feel ants crawling up my skin and shit. It was unnerving. Uhh, can't wait to get out of this hellhole...once I find out where I am. I cleared my thoughts and fall into the world of slumber
"Tia! Tia wake up!" Princess Luna burst into Princess Celestia's room. The sun monarch rubbed her eyes and looked towards her worried sister.
"What is it Lulu? Can't you see I'm sleeping here?" Celestia said as she gave a wide yawn.
"I have just sensed a magical disturbance! It came from The Everfree Forest! " Luna responded, her face full of nervousness. Celestia immediately jolted up, now fully aware of her surroundings.
"What! Have you traced whatever caused it?" Celestia asked her sister, who merely shook her head. This wasn't the first time they felt a magical disturbance. they felt one when Discord escaped too. Whatever, caused the magical disturbance had to be found straight away before it could cause any ruckus. The two sisters decided it would be better to discuss this in the morning. With heavy hearts, they went back to what they were doing.
The Everfree Forest was exceptionally quiet, except for a few crickets here and there. Unfortunately, that silence was broken by a creature who was currently yawning.
"Ahh, that was a good nights' sleep...not really...I'm pretty sure a bug crawled in my ear but whatever!" I exclaimed to no one in particular. Man it sucks being alone. Alright, so what's on the agenda today?
1. Get food 2.Get water 3.Find out where the fuck I am.
That seems like a good checklist. Food...hmm...maybe I could go hunting? Yeah! LE'GO!
I started to walk around the forest, looking for any prey. Maybe I could eat some berries? Nah, wouldn't want to risk my life in case they were poison. As I walk more and more, I spotted no animal.
"That's weird. It's unusually quiet..." I thought to myself. Okay so maybe this is kinda sketchy. I mean seriously, there shou-
I was caught off guard as a....dwarf? Wait, what? It wore a RedCap and tattered clothes. It had a long beard that would make Santa Clause jealous. It also had chains on his hands, wore chainmail boots and was carrying a scythe. It wore a devilish grin and started walking towards me with malice in his face. Oh fuck no. I ain't about to become the prey. I quickly unsheathed my sword and held a fighting stance.
"Let's go bitch!" I said. He then proceeded to lunge at me.
I sidestepped his pathetic attack and slashed his side but he took me by surprise by ducking underneath my sword and slashing me in the knee. "FUCK THAT HURT!" I shouted. Now I had two injured knees. He looked at me confused and then continued his attack. I had no choice but to dodge his attacks with an injured knee. It was hard but I managed to parry his attack and thrust my sword towards his stomach. I managed to stab him but he did not falter. He swung his giant weapon towards my head, seizing the opportunity to attack me as my sword was stuck in his chest. I had to abandon my sword and roll away before the scythe chopped off my head.
The dwarf pulled out my sword out of his stomach and started attacking me with both weapons. The blood that was gushing out of his stomach did not faze him in any way. I had to dodge and weave his relentless attacks before I realized that I still had my gun with me. My 'Century' as I called it, was still in it's holster. i pulled it out of my hostler and aimed it straight on the dwarf. It seemed confused by my actions. I didn't waste this chance. I clicked off the safety, pulled back the barrel and maintained my breath. I clicked the trigger.
click....BOOM!
The bullet flew out of my gun and lodged itself into the creature's skull. It immediately jerked backwards and fell down, looking at the sky while blood gushed out of it's skull. I walked towards it's dead body and muttered out, "That's why you don't mess with me, bitch!" Feeling satisfied by my work, I grabbed my sword back and sheathed it. I stared at the creature's eyes. I looked beside the body and found his weapon, the scythe.
"This is so fucking weird. I get thrown into this weird forest, I fought wood wolves and now I'm fighting a dwarf that had a weapon....What. The. Fuck" I said to myself. The days just seem to get weirder. That scythe does seem nice though...meh, fuck it. Hope you don't mind me taking your weapon.
The blade of the scythe was gleaming off my reflection. I found out that I can actually fold the scythe in half. Great! I continued my journey of finding food while carrying a new weapon. What should I call it? The 'DeathBringer'! Nah, too lame...hmm...I got it! I'm gonna call you, 'Reaper'....yup! Reaper...you know...cause...Grim Reaper and stuff...Oh c'mon that was good!
I shifted my focus back to my mission. As I continued on this path, that leads to...I don't where this leads to! I pressed on, even though both my knees were injured, determined to find out where this path would take me. After a couple of minutes, I finally saw a clearing. I quickened my pace and made it out into the clearing. What I saw...was amazing! There is a fucking huge castle! It looked...familiar! Damnit...I swear I saw this castle before! It looked destroyed and ruined. It looked pretty abandoned. Let's check it out.
As I was about to cross the bridge that led to the castle, I heard voices. In instinct, I jumped back and hid in a bush.
"C'mon Twilight! There's nothing here! We have already scouted the whole forest! I'm pretty sure the princess's were worried about nothing...
"Well, I just want to be sure Rainbow. The last place we haven't check is the Castle Of The Two Sisters. After that, we can go home if we don't find anything.
"Finally darling. I would have to wash my mane again after this. Hmph!"
"Oh come on Rarity! It isn't that bad! You just have to turn that frown upside down! Right Applejack?"
"Hm? Oh yeah yeah. Ah just hope we don't find anythin' there."
"Me too...I hope there are no...monsters there..."
"NO WAY! HOLY SHIT!" I screamed in my mind. This is Equestria! Oh My God! I was currently looking at 6 ponies that were on their way to The castle! The Castle Of The Two Sisters! I decided to wait by the bush until they finished their work. What were they doing here anyways....wait...were they trying to find me? Ah shit, how did they find out? Damn...guess I have to wait here until they're done.
"Princess Celestia! We got your message and came here as fast as we could!" A lavender pony said to the sun monarch. There were 5 more ponies that followed her pursuit.
"Princess Twilight, thank you guys for coming. I'm afraid, there is an emergency," Celestia said to the element bearers.
All of them had a worried look on their face and Applejack broke the silence, "Whadd'ya mean Princess?"
"Well, last night, my sister Luna, sensed a magical disturbance," Celestia could see the look of confusion on the ponies' faces and continue, "A magical disturbance means that someone or something has broken the balance of power. Either something has entered our realm or something has left our realm. An example of a magical disturbance is when Discord escaped."
"Did someone mention my name?"
The god of chaos appeared out of nowhere in an explosion of streamers and confetti. "Ta-Da!" Discord exclaimed in excitement.
"Well, that's my job pinkie, to annoy ponies or other creatures! I overheard you guys talking about a magical disturbance?" Discord looks towards Celestia to confirm his claims. She nodded her head. "Well, just saying, I am an expert at magic sensing. So...I can probably help you in your escapades in finding the source of the disturbance," He said while transforming himself into a detective.
The element bearers look at each other with wary in their faces until Princess Celestia spoke up, "Okay Discord. I will allow you to help the girls on their mission. But, if you so much as to hurt one of them, you will find out that I'm not such a nice princess."
Discord didn't notice the malice in Celestia's voice, either that or he just doesn't care. "I won't make any promises but I can promise that I won't intentionally hurt them. Not Fluttershy at least!" He said while hugging Fluttershy, who meekly smiled at his antics.
Back to present -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I've been waiting in this small as bush for 10 minutes. Where could they be? Wait...what's that noise? OH! They're back! I heard the sounds of footsteps grow louder and then finally, voices started to talk.
"See! I told you nothing was in there!" I could tell with her tomboyish voice that that was Rainbow Dash.
"I know, I know. Better safe then sorry." Definitely Twilight. "Hey, where's Discord?" Wait what?
"He said that he would meet us at the entrance after we're done. He went back and double-checked the forest." Aww, Fluttershy, you too cute!
"Well, I guess we're done here girls. Let's head home." Twilight and her gang soon left the place. I can finally go out of this fucking bush. God damn. Am I really sweating that much? My head was drenched in sweat. Welp, time to go to the castle.
After I reached the castle, I entered through the doorway and was amazed at what I saw. Even though the castle was in ruins, it was still beautiful. There were decorations everywhere. And there were two thrones in front of me. There were banners representing the two sisters. As I was looking at the decorations in awe, I heard a voice behind me...
"Who the hell are you?"
I turned around and saw a guy with a red shirt and normal trousers. He also had a white scarf hanging around his neck. I looked at him with my eyes opened...there was another human in Equestria!
"I thought me and my brother were the only ones in Equestria..." He said. What the fuck? He continued, "Oh yeah...I forgot...I traveled back in time. You must be the human Twilight met a few years ago..."
WHAT! WHAT THE FUCK! I meet Twilight! I muttered out, "What!? Who are you dude?"
"Who I am is not important...I think. Why are you here?" He asked. Oh okay, he was little bit of an asshole but hey, I'm not one to judge so quickly.
"Oh, um...just explorin'..." I responded. He looked at me with a glare. I glared at him back.
"Young people like you shouldn't be exploring around. You might get hurt..." He said with a straight face. Oh it is on motherfucker.
"What's your problem dude!" I said with a louder voice than usual.
"Jeez calm down, I was just joking kid. Besides, I'm pretty sure I'm waayyy stronger than you..." He said with a smirk.
"Wanna test it out?" I challenged him.
He began smiling widely at me, "Oh it is so on!"
We rushed towards each other. "Time to test out the scythe" I thought to myself.
He unsheathed his weapon which looks like a long samurai blade. I unfolded my scythe and we clashed our weapons. Since my other hand was free, I unsheathed my Avian and tried to thrust his chest. He saw the attack and managed to rush back before getting hit. Now I had two weapons in my grasp. On my right hand, my Reaper. On my left hand, my Avian.
He sheathed back his sword and saw that I had a confused look in my face. He then took out two pistols from his belt hostler and started shooting at me. I dodged the bullets and managed to roll behind a pillar. I could hear the bullets smash against the surface of the pillar. I thought I was safe until I heard him say, "You do know that this place is in ruins right? The pillar won't last against my bullets kid."
Shit...he was right. After a couple of seconds, I could see some of the pillar rocks falling down. I decided to get out of there as soon as possible. I rolled out of the pillar and sprinted towards him. He saw me and changed his pistols' target towards me. I heard the bullets flying towards me but I managed to deflect most of it with my blade. Some of it grazed my cheek and I could feel blood trickle down my cheek. As I was gaining distance towards him, I swung my Reaper in hopes of slashing him. He weaved through my attack and shot one of his guns towards my knee.
"Oh fuck no!" i screamed in my head as I dodged the bullet.
He wasn't done yet though. He jumped really high....woah....like really high and started spamming bullets from his guns. I had to evacuate back to the pillar. Bad idea.
The pillar fell on my back, crushing me. Both my weapons were slipped out of my grasp. I spat out some blood as the weight of the pillars were on my back.
"I told ya' dude. No one messes with me." He said as he walked up to me. Little did he know I was done.
Since I had gotten out of situations like these before. I decided to depend on my 'fire abilities'. I concentrated on the heat of my body. I felt a warming sensation envelope me.
"What the fuck are you doing dude?" He said. I ignored him and concentrated harder. I felt my body heating up hotter and hotter. Before I knew it, my whole body caught on fire, burning everything around me including the pillar.
"Ah! What the fuck is happening!" He yelled, backing away from me. I got you bitch.
I got up from my position and focused the flame on my hand. I saw a ball of flame on the top of my palm. I looked towards him and said, "Checkmate." I threw the fireball towards him and it nailed him clean on his chest. Got'cha bitch!
There were smoke around him. After the smoke cleared, I was surprised to see him still standing. What the fuck!
He looked at me and smirked, "I'm resistant to magic! That still hurt though. It wasn't 100% magic."
I looked at him in disbelief before I started to feel a little dizzy. My vision started to haze for a bit and before I knew it, I was on the floor. Before I blacked out, I heard a voice, "Aaaannnddd he fainted."
For fuck sakes, I'm gonna kill you whoever you are. My vision started to return to me as I opened my eyes. I had to blink a few times to adjust to the room.
"You finally awake?" A voice called out to me. I turned my head to the side and saw that jackass again. Ah shit, I fainted didn't I? I looked towards him and said, "Whad'you want dude?" He smiled towards me, "Chill dude. Even if you tried, you couldn't defeat me. Anyways, I don't want anything from you. I was just travelling back to the past. Anyways, you put up a good fight dude, with your flames and shit."
I started to smile too, "Thanks dude. Oh yeah, where's my weapon by the way?" He pointed towards my side. I turned and saw my weapons laying on the ground. I stood up and started sheathing all the weapons. My sword and gun inside their hostlers. I then stood up and said, "Alright, let's start from square one...My name is Christopher but you can just call me Chris. What's your name?"
He looked at me and responded, "My names Connor, Connor Smith." Ah, Connor ey. Reminds me of the Princess Twilight fanboy.
And from then on, we started to talk about our lives. Apparently, he and his brother, Travis, was teleported to Equestria. He said that his brother was a cold and heartless person that was responsible for his sister's death. He was also responsible for the death of Connor's girlfriend. Yeah...not a guy I wanna meet. Another thing, Connor has the ability to have any superhero's superpower. He has a voice in his head? His name is Chad....Deadpool much? Whatever, so yeah we've been exchanging stories for the past couple of hours or so until he decided to leave.
"Alright, I think my time is up. Time to go back to where." He said as a portal appeared in front of him. As he was about to step into the portal, he turned around and tossed me something. I caught it and stared at the object, inspecting it carefully. He said, "If you need me again, you can use my token but avoid my brother because he is an asshole."
His token was an amulet (which was obviously from the DMC series.) that was silver and had a ruby in it. I responded to him, "Yeah dude! I'll call you some day! And I'll try to keep that in mind." With that, he stepped into the portal and disappeared.
I looked at the spot which was bearing a human a while ago. This was getting really fuckin' weird man. I have read many fanfictions about this kind of shit. sight....whatever. I walked towards the entrance of the castle and exited there. As I was walking I realized something....
growl... I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN ANY FUCKING FOOD! I ran back to my camp.
"Oh...my...He is bruised and bloody....I hope he won't eat us..."
"Awww c'mon Shy! I bet we can take em' on!"
"Although his ways are...brutal, I still must make an outfit for him. I mean look at what he's wearing! It is simply ugly and dreadful! Hmph! "
"THAT WAS SO COOL! I mean did you see him fight the other guy! He lost but still! He has fiery powers like a phoenix! ohohohoh, Maybe he is a phoenix! Maybe I should feed him with some of my special baked goods cupcakes and throw him a party! What kind of flavoured cupca-hpmphmhpmh!"
"Pinkie, we get it. We know ya' wanna throw a party for the fellow."
The 6 ponies and 1 draconequus just stared at the human who was running towards the forest. The human didn't notice them on the way out as they were invisible.
As the ponies began to describe the human among themselves, Discord just stared at where the human had ran moments ago and chuckled, "Hehehe, this is gonna be chaotic!"
As I was roasting a rabbit that I just caught on top of a fire I had just made with my 'abilities', I felt a chill go up my spine. Someone was talking about me...meh...what am I gonna do about it. I took the stick that was currently impaled through the rabbit's chest, I began eating my meal ravenously. Ahhh....that tasted good.
After I finished my delicious meal, I headed to the river thingy and was about to drink the water there until I realized...was it safe? I mean...I should probably boil the water to rid it of any bacteria....meh....fuck it. YOLO! I took off all my clothes and stood on the edge of the river.
I jumped in the river and dove underneath the surface. I took in a big gulp of water. I then swam back up the surface to take in air. Whooo! That felt good. I decided to just float on my back and relax there for a bit. I may be naked, but as long as no one or...no pony saw me, meh, it was fun. After a few minutes of relaxing, I went back to the shore of the river and dried myself off like how a dog would. By shaking everywhere. After that, I put on all my clothes and laid down on the same cold muddy floor. I was kinda getting used to it. I looked towards my bike that was still propped up against the tree. It was still fine I guess. I then closed my eyes and entered the dream realm...
I was in the dream real, swimming in the sky with some birds. Hey! It might be weird but it's actually really relaxing. Anyways, since I am a lucid dreamer, I can control my dreams! I changed my surroundings into a field with flowers and stuff. I laid down onto the ground and relaxed there a bit. My relaxation was broken as I sensed someone entering my dreams. I knew who it was...time to meet my favourite princess!
"I wonder if I can access it's dreams..." Luna thought to herself. It has been hours since the elements and Discord reported their findings. Apparently, there is a tall biped creature that is residing in the EverFree Forest. It has 2 weapons and a mechanism that fires tiny projectiles. It is very experienced in fighting for what the elements told us but it lost to another biped creature. It also has fire magic? Certainly no weak link.
Luna wondered if she could access it's dreams without him knowing. It is easy to access dreams of her ponies but a strange creature whom she never met before? Chances were slim...but she would try anyways. She needed to know if this creature would harm any of her subjects. She then escaped the dream realm and started searching for the creature's dream.
After a couple of minutes searching through the real, she came across a door that was quite different than all other doors. This door had a strange magical feeling, as if it wasn't meant to be here. It also had strange designs. Normal doors that belong to ponies had their cutie marks on it. This one just had a weird....logo? Well, Luna then entered the doors. She quickly hid her presence with a spell and made herself invisible.
Back to Chris POV -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, time to have a little fun with Luna! As I continued to look up to the sky while laying down on the fields, I summoned a giant snake in ont of me. I then mounted it and we began slithering all over the place while a familiar song. I began to sing along with it! I stood on top of the snake and summoned my Avian. I then started dancing on top of the snake with my blade thrashing around.
Luna POV ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By Faust! What is this act of display!? This creature is dancing around with that horrendous yet addictive music! What is this form of torture? This is even worst! I must leave now!
Luna then left the human's dream and took a nap. She decided that she had seen enough. She then decided to take a nap although....mumbling the song lyrics a few times in her sleep.
"HAOOOO!" I yawned loudly. I had woke up from my dreams of riding a snake. Once I felt that Luna had left, I just continued with my dreams until I woke up. Now! What is on the agenda, I was not hungry or thirsty...yet....I found out where I was...I think that's it. Wow....I had nothing to do huh? Oh! Wait, I have an idea. Since there is no way to go into town without them thinking I'm gonna eat them up....let's slowly make a good impression shall we? And who better to start the the shaman of the forest?
After a minute or so of walking, I found her cottage...Zecora's cottage. It wasn't that hard to find as her cottage was decorated with this creepy masks. Anywho, I walked up the door and knocked on it.
When the door opened, I was staring a a cute filly with a red bowtie. She reached up to my thigh. Wait....isn't this Applebloom?
"Erm, Zecora! There's someone here!" Applebloom said with her southern accent. So cute!
I then heard more hooves coming towards the door. Zecora appeared and said, "What brings you here to my humble abode, May I offer you any drinks or food?"
Huh...so she does rhyme. Anyways I responded, "Urm, not really. I'm good but I just wanted to meet the shaman of the forest I guess. May I come in?"
Zecora lets me in her house, I gotta admit...it's actually pretty big...even though I had to duck under the doorway. Anyways, the cute little Applebloom asked me, "Hey mister! What are ya'?" So cute!
I responded, "Well little Applebloom, I am a human! I'm pretty sure you've never seen one of me before?" I looked towards Zecora and she nodded her head in confirmation.
Applebloom looked at me from head to toe and said, "Wow! Yer' pretty tall mister! Hey, how do ya' know mah name?" Shit.
I looked around nervously and started to dart my eyes around the room. I stuttered, "I-I um...It-it was ju-just a hunch?"
She seem to accept my answer and trotted away. Zecora invited me to sit down and I told her and Applebloom about myself.
"Yeah so basically, humans do not have magic but we adapt with our technology." I said. They have been asking me about my life, what technology humans have and everything. While I was telling them about cars, we heard knocking on the door.
As Zecora was walking towards it, I heard, "Hello? Zecora you there? It's Twilight,"
Shit. fuck. I'm out bitch. I stood up from my chair and ran towards the nearest window. Since it didn't have a window pane, I could jumped through easily.
"Where ya' goin' mister?" Applebloom said to me. I turned around and saw her face of sadness. Fuck! SO CUTE!
"Um, I'll be back! Don'tcha worry now alright? Be sure to tell your sister about me!" I responded to her. She nodded her head furiously and waved me goodbye as I ran.
pantpant Holy shit. I managed to return back to my campsite without anyone noticing. I'm pretty sure they were there for me. Hopefully Zecora and Applebloom will spread good things about me. Anyways, what to do now...there was still sunlight left....hmmm. I glanced towards my bike. Hehe! Let's go bike riding shall we! There was a little gap separating the river and the forest. It was pretty open so I'm pretty sure I can ride there. The path seems pretty long I guess. I took out the bike key and shoved it into the ignition hole. I twist it and the bike roared to life!
SHHHHH-VROOOMM!
I mounted the bike and started riding beside the river. I had a feeling, today's gonna be a good day!
"COME BACK HERE!" A voice yelled behind me. I pulled the throttle even more and the bike accelerated forward faster. Shit! They found me! THEY FUCKING FOUND ME! I was currently up on a hill just following the dirt road. I checked my bike speed.
"105" It read.
I could hear Rainbow Dash getting closer and closer. I glanced back and saw Rainbow Dash closing up on me. Behind her I saw Twilight flying too. I didn't see the rest of the mane six though. I looked forward and started to speed up again.
"115"
My tires were not meant for this. Two times, my bike almost slipped on the mud. At least I still had my weapons. My Avian sheathed, My gun in it's hostler, My scythe clipped to Avian's hostler. Okay, this is good. I just have to lose them. I sped up again.
"125"
I could feel the wind blowing against my face. If only I brought my helmet. I was on a hill thingy that led to....I don't know where. I risked a glance behind me and saw that rainbow dash was keeping with my pace. Twilight however was no where in sight. I aimed my eyes forward.
After a couple of minutes of our cat and mouse game, I saw in front of my bike...
It was a cliff....
I am about to fall off a cliff....
My mind went overdrive and I pulled on the brakes. My bike screeched loudly and I began to lose control of my bike. I fell down on my bike and screeched my knee against the jagged rocks. "FUUUUUUUUUCCCKKKKK!" I screamed. I tighten my grip on my bike and waited until we came to a halting stop. After we stopped, I looked in front of me and saw that I was a few meters away from the cliff.
"Fuck! Just like how I got here huh?"
I slowly let go of my hug with the bike and laid there. I went to a sitting position and saw my knee. It was cut badly and I'm pretty sure it's infected. I already got two knee injuries...this is just adding insult. I poked the wound and hissed in pain. Bad idea. As I just laid there against my bike, in pain, I heard footsteps...or hoofsteps I guess. I looked above me and saw a cyan rainbow mare looking at me with anger and also sympathy on her face.
"Jeez, that looks bad but Twilight and the rest is coming soon so don't you worry. Anyways, what the heck was that!? Why did you run!? And why are you in Equestria?" Rainbow asked me.
I looked at her with a small smile. I was starting to get dizzy from the blood lost. Before I knew it, I blacked out.
"Urm, did he just black out?" Rainbow thought to herself. She look at the creature in front of her. It looked weird and funny. It was heavily injured though. She suddenly heard hooves behind her.
"Hey Rainbow! Where's the creature?" Twilight asked. I pointed towards him.
"Dear Celestia! What happened to it?" Fluttershy asked, seemingly not timid as she saw the injured creature.
I explained to my friends what happened to the creature when I was chasing him and all of them shared a look of sympathy.
"Maybe we should take em' to the hospital?" Applejack suggested. We of them agreed and Twilight gathered enough magic for us to be teleported to the hospital. Once we were there, we explained to the doctor and nurses what had happened. They agreed to take the creature in.
Chris POV -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
beep
What was that sound? Did I fainted again?
beep
Uh, shut up...so annoying...
beep
Okay that's it, you're gonna die now.
I opened my eyes and blinked a few times to adjust my eyes with the brightness. Once I was done, I looked around me. Well, I was in a bed...without a shirt. I glanced towards my left and saw that my stuff was on a chair. My sword, Scythe, Gun and shirt was there. I looked underneath my blanket, at least they left my pants. I'm pretty sure my shoe was under the bed. As I was about to stand up, a nurse walks into my room.
We stare at each other awkwardly before she bolted out the room. Huh...wait....I'm in a hospital....shit. The elements are probably gonna visit me later...fuck. Hopefully they don't banish me! I began to think how they would punish me....
My thoughts were broken as the nurse came back with a doctor.
"Hello! Wow, I did not think you would be awake already. My name is Doctor Thunder Hooves. I am here to do a check-up on you!"He said. I nodded my head and he began checking my heartbeat, my injuries and such.
"Well, you have minor injuries such as cuts and bruises and you also have major injuries. Your, right and left foreleg seems to be swollen with infection. It also has a huge deep cut. Don't worry, we have sterilized the wound and bandaged it up! Other than that, I think you should be fine. you will be staying here for a few more days. Oh and one more thing, you have some visitors!" Doctor Thunder said as he made his way out of the door to fetch the visitors. Visitors huh? Probably the mane six...
After a couple of minutes waiting, the door creaked open and 6 colourful blobs went in the room. We gazed at each other in silence before it was broken by a hyperactive pink pony.
"HI! MY NAME IS PINKIE PIE BUT YOU CAN CALL ME PINKIE! WHAT'S YOUR NAME? OH OH! SHHH! LEMME GUESS! IS IT...JOHN? HOW ABOUT CENA? I HAVE A LOT OF NICKNAMES FOR YOU! ARE YOU HUNGRY? I BROUGHT SOME CUPCAKES FOR YOU! WHAT KIND OF FLAVOU-MPHHMMM" Pinkie said to me before getting silenced by Applejack's hoof.
Applejack said, "Pinkie, I think yer' scarin' him. Please forgive her, mah name's Applejack! We would like to know yer' better!"
"My name...is Christopher Plainfield but you can call me Chris." I responded to Applejack's question. She smiled at me while letting go of her hoof from Pinkie's mouth. She then held her hoof towards me. As I was about to shake it, I remembered something about the show and shook her hoof really fast. Her eyes kinda seemed to shake around as well.
Pinkie Pie came next, "Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie! Of course you already knew that! You want a cupcake? Here have one!" She handed me a cupcake with blue frosting. I was not fond of cupcakes but I tried it anyways. Oh.My.God. That cupcake was delicious! I could feel the frosting circle around my tastebuds and I could taste the flavor! The sweetness ached my mouth for more. I kept eating it until it was no more.
"So did you like it? huhuhuh? Please tell me you liked it!" Pinkie asked me. I nodded my head and she hugged me.
"HOLY FUCKING SHIT! I'm HUGGING PINKIEEEE!" I screamed in my head. This was happening! WOOOO! TAKE THAT BRONIES! And Pegasisters!
She let go of me and bounced back to her friends. Twilight came next and she said, "Hi! I'm Twilight Sparkle! Can I ask what creature you are?"
I responded, "I'm a human!" Her eyes seemed to 'sparkle' a little bit when she heard that. Hehe...sparkle....get it? No? Fuck you.
"Wow! A creature I never seen or heard before! This is amazing!" She exclaimed to herself. She then raise her hand and I shook it normally.
Next up, the almighty, Rainbow Dash! She flew up to my face and started jabbing it while saying, "Listen here buddy! I don't know who you are! But if you harm any of my friends, there will be payback!" Huh?
"Darling, you're simply scaring him. Oh, where are my manners. Hello, I am Rarity! Owner of Carousel Boutique!" Rarity said as she walked up to me. She held up her hoof I had an idea. I got up from my bed and kneel down, even though it hurts and kissed her hoof.
"My, my. See Rainbow, he isn't a brute." Rarity said as she walked back to the mane six, visibly blushing. Rainbow looked at me funny before she held up her hoof towards me. She said, "No kissing my hoof kid." I simply hoofbumped her. She seemed satisfied and went back to the group.
"Is that everyone?" I asked them, knowing that Fluttershy was left. They all looked at each other uncomfortably before nudging the yellow pegasus.
I kneeled down, my fucking knee again...and stroked her mane.
"Eeep!" She muttered in surprise. I continued stroking her mane while saying, "It's okay, I won't hurt you."
She looked up towards me and smile before saying, "Thank you!" I smiled at her.
I got up and said, "That's it right?" They all nodded.
"Alright so what quest-" My words were interrupted by a loud roar.
"ROOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR"
We all recoiled in surprise and looked outside the window.
"Is that.....!" Twilight said before she galloped outside. All of her friends followed in pursuit. I looked outside the window once more and saw a giant blue beast terrorizing Ponyville. It had a star on it's forehead. It looks....familiar....Wait! Isn't that the Ursa Minor? What the fuck!
I put on my clothes and grabbed my weapons. I put my gun in it's hostler and my Avian sheathed. I carried the Reaper and ran outside the hospital. My fucking knee hurts like hell but I pushed forward. I saw the mane six fighting the thing. Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rarity was hiding behind a rock. Rainbow Dash was flying around the beast. Twilight was blasting spells at the beast while Applejack was bucking apples towards his face. The bears seemed unaffected and continued to smash buildings. I unfolded my Reaper and unsheathed my Avian.
You mess with Ponyville, you get the human. Okay that was cringe but COME AT ME BITCH!
"What is an Ursa Minor doing here?" I said as I ran out the hospital. This makes no sense. Ursa Minors' don't usually come out of their cave unless they're hungry and they can survive without eating for a thousand moons. They don't usually go to town either! I stopped in front of the Ursa Minor. I watched as he smashed buildings and stepped on carts.
"Twilight! Twilight over here!" I heard a voice behind me. I turned around and saw my friends running towards me. Worry was all over their faces.
"What's happening here? Why is it here Twi?" Rainbow asked me.
"I-I don't know Rainbow..." I told her. my friends became more worried.
"Fluttershy, can you please talk to the Ursa Minor? You're the only one who can talk to animals!" I told Fluttershy. She looked scared but as soon as she saw the destruction caused by it, she put on a brave face and flew towards the Ursa Minor. The Ursa Minor shifted his focus on to Fluttershy. After a couple of minutes it roared at her. Fluttershy was sent flying backwards before Rainbow caught her.
"What happened there Fluttershy?" I asked her with a visible face of nervousness.
"It-it didn't work....he wouldn't listen to me...sniff.." Fluttershy said as she was sniffing a few tears.
All of us looked at her in sadness. I responded, "Alright girls. Let's stop him the hard way then."
All of us agreed and took our places. Rarity, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy hid behind a rock while Rainbow Dash, Apple jack and me dealt with the Ursa Minor. I began casting spells towards him.
Chris POV -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I ran towards the beast and slashed it's foot. It seemed to visible cringe and swatted his claws at me. It was hard but I managed to dodge and roll its attacks. I turned back and saw that all of the mane six were staring at me in awe and fear. I slashed it's foot once more but this time, I was launched in the air but its foot. It kicked me and I was sent flying up. I landed on its head. Checkmate bitch.
I stabbed my Avian on it's forehead star. It roared in pain and tried to shake me off but i managed to maintain my balance. I ran up to its body and began to slash it's back with my Reaper.
"Slice and Dice!" I yelled out while slashing his back. It roared once more and tried to shake me off again. I lost my balance and tumbled to its side. I managed to puncture it's side with my Reaper and hang there.
"Holy shiiiittt! That is a long drop....I ain't breaking my bones...fuck nah." I said to myself. Fuckin' aye.
The Ursa Minor did not seem to notice me hanging on it's side as he began terrorizing the town again. I looked towards the mane six as they were either hiding or attacking the Ursa Minor. So what am I gonna do now...
"Hey, you hanging out?" I looked towards my left and saw Rainbow Dash hovering in front of me.
"Yeah, I need some help right now..." I told her as I smiled. She smiled back and said, "I got'cha!" She lifted me up and dropped me on the Minor's back.
"Jeez you weigh a ton." She joked to me. We hoofbumped and she flew off. I continued my slashing on it's back and it began to roar in pain again. I run towards his head and took out my Avian. He began shaking his head as the blood gushed out of his skull. I was trying to maintain my balance before and idea struck me. Huh...
I sat down on his neck and sheathed my Avian. I took out my gun and began shooting straight on it's forehead.
click....BOOM
click....BOOM
click....BOOM
The Ursa Minor began to lose his balance and collapse. He laid on the ground, trying to stand up. Not happening bitch. I stabbed my Reaper on his bullet wounds and it seemed that he was losing the battle. I took out my Reaper and folded it. I clipped it to the back of my sling for the Avian. I began shooting at the beast once more.
click....BOOM
"10 bullets left..." I thought to myself. It was always good to keep track of the amount of bullets you have left. The beast started to collapse and soon, he fell on the ground. I won....I WON!
My celebration was cut short as the beast shook off the pain and stood up once more. He shook his body again but this time, it was even more harder to maintain balance. How the fuck? I lost my balance and fell.
Ompfh!
THAT HURTS! FUCK! I think I have some broken bones. Good thing I landed on my back....if not my knees would be fucking broken. I looked up towards the beast...he was visibly different. His coat became dark purple and his eyes became black and his irises became red. He seemed to glow with more power than ever. He looked towards me and roared an almighty roar.
I gulped nervously. Looks like he wants a round two.
"AHHHHHHH!" I was being chased around town by that gigantic fuck right now. As I was running, I took a sharp left and hid in an alleyway. I could hear the Minor's footsteps. As he passed the alleyway, I ran out the alleyway and shot the Minor's tail.
"ROAAAARRRRRRRRRR" I am currently shitting my pants right now. He turned around and gaze me in the eye. I could feel him staring into my soul with that red eye. I aimed the gun at him and shot him in the eye.
"RRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR!" Fuck this shit I'm out!
I began running while he chased me. As we ran, I could feel my back began heating up. I thought it was my flame abilities....until I turned back. I saw the Minor's mouth opening up and it was smoking red.
"What the fuck is h-" My thoughts were cut short as he breathed flames.
"AHHHHH FUCK OFF!" I yelled. The flames caught my foot on fire and I could feel my skin burning. I couldn't stop as he was still chasing me. What the fuck am I suppose to do?!
10 Minutes after -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So for the past 10 fucking minutes, we've been trading our attacks. Every once in a while, I would shoot him and he would either flamethrower my ass or claw me. I am currently down to 5 bullets left. He was getting slower. I am currently on top of a house and he was trying to find me. I am fucking tired man.
"ROAAARRR!" It screamed in anger and agony. I had to cup my ears. I had cuts and my clothes were a little bit burnt. Fuck my knee, my whole body was damaged.
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
It's footsteps echoed throughout Ponyville. I had to end this soon. I was getting tired and I'm injured as fuck. I thought to myself the possibilities on how to kill him. An idea struck me! Well, since it likes to flame me so much, let's give it a test of his own medicine!
"HEY YOU!" My voice rang out throughout Ponyville. The Ursa Minor turned around and saw me standing on a roof. He was about to charge at me until I shouted, "COME AT ME YOU BEAR FREAK!" He became really angry and he charged at me. I smirked and watched as he became closer and closer to me.
"Checkmate!" I yelled as I activated my fire abilities. The ground where The Ursa Minor was running became infested with fiery spikes. The Minor got impaled by one of the spikes and his body caught on fire.
"RRRRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR!"
"Jeez that was loud..."I said to myself. As the Minor was about to move, I wrapped his body in fire chains. It seemed in pain and annoyed. As he was about to roar again, I wrapped his snout with the fiery chains.
"Can't talk huh?" I said to him with a smug look. He stared at me with fury at his eyes. He wiggle around in the chains and was trying to break it. As he struggled within the chains, I felt my energy go lower and lower. Every time the Minor would shake or release himself from the chains, I felt a stabbing sensation. As if someone was slashing and stabbing me with a knife. I was getting more and more tired.
"SCRINGGG-SCHRACK!"
My chains broke! SHIT! He began to tear all of my chains apart and run towards me. Fuckin' hell. I focused the fire in my right arm. I began to feel a heating sensation. If I can time this correctly, I should be able to end him now.
19 seconds
My right arm began to catch on fire.
13 seconds
My arm was now fully on fire. I began to channel all of my energy into my arm. I needed more power!
9 seconds
I could feel the energy in all of my body being focused into my arm.
5 seconds
My arm was glowing with fiery power.
3 seconds
I readied my stance...
2 seconds
I prepared to jump...
1 second
I jumped towards the Minor. It caught him by surprise as I soared towards him. When I was near, I punched his snout with my fiery fist.
"FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FIST!" I shouted as my fist hit contact with his snout. He was sent flying backwards. As I was falling back to the ground, I couldn't do anything to soften my blow. I was out of energy and I was injured...all I could do, was wait for the impact...
"I GOT YOU!" I turned my head and saw Rainbow flying towards me. She surprised me by catching me mid-fall.
"Thanks skittles." I said to her while smiling. She smiled back.
After a couple of minutes of searching around Ponyville, Rainbow finally found her friends and dropped me off there. I laid on the ground, too tired to stand up.
"Dear Celestia! What happened Chris?" Twilight said to me with anxiousness in her face. I tried to talk to her but the words died down in my throat. My eyes started to get heavy.
"No...I ain't fainting..." I thought to myself. No way. As I tried to open my eyes. I felt a sharp jolt of pain through my head. It was easier to let my eyes close. My head started to get dizzy. I then blacked out.
"Where....where the fuck am I?" I said aloud. I was currently floating with...the stars? I looked around me and saw the stars and planets. I'm in the universe? I tried to stand up but there was nothing to stand on. As I was looking around, I heard a voice behind me,
I turned around me and saw an alicorn. She had dark purple coat and her mane was filled with..stars...Her eyes were purple and she was wearing a regal outfit. She even had a crown on and everything.
"Wh-who are you?" I asked her. She seemed to smile at this question.
"I am Ethereal Star. And no, I'm not a princess. I was born this way." She responded while fluttering her wings and waving her horn. I could only stare at her in shock and awe.
"So what am I doing here?" I asked her. She smiled and responded, "I am here to tell you why you were summoned into Equestria."
My heart fluttered. "Woah...this is a little too much to take right now..." I told her. She nodded her head.
"I understand. Would you like to hear a story on why you were summoned here?" She asked me. I nodded my head, "Sure..."
"Long ago, before Celestia and Luna took the throne, Equestria was at war against, The Nightmare." I gasped, mouth wide open, "You mean...the same Nightmare that took over Luna?"
She nodded her head before continuing, "Yes. It was a fierce war that would leave devestating effects. Equestria and reached out to other nations to get help for the war. Surprisingly, many of the nations agreed such as the Minotaurs, Griffons, Dragons and even Changelings. We teamed with each other and fought. In the midst of the war, there were four creatures who stood out. These four carried unique traits. The first creature was a retired Griffon Veteran who was helping in the war. His name was WingBlade. He was in charge of a squad with 5 other Griffons and they were the spies. During on of the nights, they sneaked into the enemy base in order to gain some information. Unfortunately, they got caught and were thrown into cages. They tortured and tormented for information about Equestria's Defense. Despite all that, they still found Courage in the face of death and refused to talk. Several days went and slowly by slowly, the monsters killed them, one by one. There were three left including WingBlade. They were loyal and still held their mouth shut. When suddenly, they saw the enemy base being destroyed and breached by Royal Guards. No soon after they were saved! They were awarded the Equestrian Honor Badge for being Courageous."
"Wow...that's an amazing story!" I said to her. She smiled at my antics. I was like a child listening to my mother telling stories.
Suddenly, an orange glow began to appear beside us. It had a shadow of a Griffon, wielding a Shortsword. The word, Courage was written on it.
"There is more. Our second story is about a Minotaur, two Minoataurs to be exact, who sacrificed their lives to save us. Their names were Tugal and Rugal. And yes, they were twins. They were blacksmiths in the Minotaur land. When the news that Equestria needed help, they offered their help and was put in the front lines. Their weapon of choice were SledgeHammers. They were the unbeatable duo as they would emerge victorious everytime they faced an enemy. It would seem that they found their match. In the midst of battle, they found an enemy. The enemy had two battleaxes and metallic armour. This enemy was different from others however. Unlike other enemies, who were mindless minions that were programmed to kill by the Nightmare, this enemy could speak and was tougher. His name was Gladious. They immediately began clashing with each other. It was obvious who had the advantage as it was a 2 on 1. After a few minutes, the Minotaurs could not do any harm to the enemy. They could only make dents and scratches to the metallic armour. The attacks from Gladious however were more severe. The two brothers had cuts and bruises everywhere along their body. Rugal had one of his horn missing and his left eye was stabbed. Tugal had his left hand broken. It was clear who had gotten the upper hand. The two Minotaurs considered their options. They could retreat, and let the Monster rampage and kill more allies. Or, they could try and risk their lives to kill the beast. They realized that they had to defeat him now so that the allies would be safe. With new found Determination, they doubled up their efforts and managed to do more than dent his armour. They managed to injure Gladious and continued their relentless attack. Gladious however, managed to counterattack and slice Rugal's arms off. He screamed in pain before Gladious sliced his head off, ending his life. Tugal's heart sank to his stomach before he attack Gladious with anger. Finally, emerging victorious, he mourned for his brother before attacking more enemies. Unfortunately, he got killed in action. They were heroes of Equestria for showing Determination towards a seemingly unbeatable enemy."
Again, I was amazed by these stories. Suddenly, another glow, this time it was green, appeared beside them and this time, there was shadows of the two Minotaurs holding the hammer with the words, Determination written on it.
"Is there more stories?" I asked her. She smiled and nodded her head, "Yes. There is one more."
"This time, it is about a dragon. His name was Ruby Flames. He was living in the Dragonlands with his family. When the news that Equestria was going to war and needed help, his family laughed, saying that dragons are proud creatures and would never go so low as to help ponies. Ruby however, thought differently. He wanted every creature to live in peace and if by fighting in this war helps to defeat the threat, then he would gladly help. He enlisted himself with other dragons that wanted to help Equestria. When his family found out about the news, they disowned him, saying that they do not want their bloodline to be tarnished by some pony loving dragon. He was saddened and heartbroken but he still went. During the war, he was in charged with sending the troops towards the right enemy and where backup is needed. As the war dragged on, he felt more and more tired and sad. He remembered what his family had said and he became more angry. His mind began to think of dark thoughts. He thought about how easy it was gonna be to mislead the troops and send them to the wrong place and get them killed. After all, it was their fault that he got disowned by his parents. But was it the right thing. He remembered that he wanted the world to live in peace...so by misleading the troops...wouldn't that be evil? If by defeating Nightmare makes the world a better place, he would try all his best to exterminate the threat. With the Power he had, he led his troops to battle and once the war was over, he was given the chance to be the Captain of the Royal Guards. He decline the offer politely, saying that his job was done and he wanted to live a free life in the DragonLand. He wished Equestria the best of luck for peace before he left." " As usual, there was another glow. It was red. It was in the middle of the other two glow. This time, it had the shadow of the dragon, standing at attention and saluting with the word, Power written on it. I was amazed with all these heroes that helped Equestria. They were inspirational. I asked Ethereal, "What does this gotta do with me?"
She looked at me with a saddened face, "It's because, The Nightmare is back." I gasped before she continued, "The Nightmare is back. And I know what you're going to say to me. The elements of harmony only weakened and sealed The Nightmare. But, it seems as though the seal has been broken by something. The reason why I need your help is because you're the only one who can do this task. See all these heroes, they all hold traits that can defeat the Nightmare. After searching through everything, I found you. You held all of these traits strongly. So, I pulled you from your world and summoned you to Equestria. I'm sorry if you think that I'm selfish...but that was the only way.."
I couldn't believe what I was hearing. So I was basically Destined to be here...I looked at the Alicorn's face who was disheartened.
"Hey, it's okay. I don't blame you. In fact i would like to thank you." I said to her. She looked at me with the face of confusion before I continued, "I would like to thank you for summoning here. I kinda like it here and it has always been my dream to be here." I wasn't going to tell her that Equestria was a television show on Earth. Good thing she didn't ask.
She began smiling, ear to ear. Tears were flowing down her face, "Thanks you..."
I smiled back at her, "Hey, it's fine! I'll try my best." She began to fade away. My vision began to blur, "Wh-what's happening?"
"It would seem that our time has come to an end. You are going to wake up soon." She told me.
Damn, looks like I have the weight of Equestria's future. Welp, time to go. New Mission : Save Equestria.
I opened my eyes to be greeted by blindness. My eyes blinked a couple of times to adjust to the light. Once my eyes could see, I looked around. I was laying down on a hospital bed, my chest wrapped up in bandages and my knees in the same state. I could see burns on my arms and legs. Probably from the Ursa Minor. I looked to my left and saw that most of my stuff was on a chair. My shirt and my shoes. Two of my swords and my gun was on there as well. My bag is also there. At least they kept my pants on. My mind immediately remembered Ethereal Star. So Equestria's fate depends on me huh? Well shit...
As I was looking around the room, the door opened. A white pony with a hat walked in. Her hat had a red cross as well as her cutie mark. She had pink mane. When she saw me looking at her, she immediately shrieked. Before she could run out the door, I called out to her, "Wait!"
She stopped and turned to look at me with fear in her eyes. I rolled my eyes and continued, "It's okay. I'm not gonna harm you..."
She looked at me and slowly approached me. She seemed to calm down a bit. She started to raise her hoof towards me, "Oh, I'm sorry there. My name's Nurse Redheart..." I looked at her and accepted the handsh...hoofshake with a smile.
We started to chat with each other. She seemed to be more open with me. She confessed that she was initially afraid of me and was about to get the Doctor to do the checkup she was suppose to do. I forgave her. We exchanged names and became quick friends.
"So Nurse, how long do I have to stay here?" I asked her. She responded, "It seems that you have some broken bones in your ribs and knees. You also have some minor burns on your hands and legs. Your knee also has some cuts. So I would say that you would in here for at least a week..."
"What! A week? That fast? Wow!" I told her in surprise. A week is really fast. I was expecting a couple of months.
She just smiled, "Well, magic can do miracles. It seems that I have to go and check up on other patients, but don't you worry, I'll be back in a couple of hours!" I smiled back at her. She seemed nice and caring. She fits every description a Nurse should be.
As she was walking out the door, she turned back and said to me, "By the way, Chris, you have visitors that will be here in a couple of hours." She walked out the door.
Visitors huh? Doesn't take a genius to figure out who those 'visitors' are. A couple of hours huh. Alright then. I checked my pockets and found my phone and wallet. I placed my wallet back in my pocket. I turned on my phone and decided to play some games. Might as well play 'Angry Turds'...instead of birds....it's...turds....I know, fucking weird.
2 Hours past and I switched off my phone. It had 61 percent battery left. Shouldn't have kept playing the turds. As I put back my phone in my pocket, the door opened. I saw the Mane Six walked in. They seem to be exhausted, probably from the 'event' that just transpired. They immediately perked up when their eyes laid on me.
"Oh thank god you're okay!" Pinkie said while hugging me. I returned her hug with a smile. As she stepped back, Twilight said, "We thought we lost you!"
"I know Twilight, I know. It's lucky I even survived to be honest." I told her. She nodded her head. The rest of them sat down on chairs around my bed and started to ask me questions.
Twilight started first, "So Chris, where do you live?"
"Umm, Arizona, United States of America?" I responded. She looked at me in puzzlement, "I never heard of Arizona in Equestria before?" Welp shit.
"Umm, that's probably because I'm not from Equestria.." I told her. All of them had their mouths wide opened. And rightfully so.
"Doesn't that mean you're alien?" She asked me. "Yea?" I told her. It seemed to increase their shock levels.
"OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOMYGOSH! So you're an alien! This is my first time being friends with an alien! Yay! Let's throw a party! It'll be called the 'Welcome to Equestria Alien Party!'" Pinkie rambled to me. My mind could barely keep up with what she said. Damn she can talk. I just merely nodded my head, hoping she would calm down.
"Ahem, sorry about that. Pinkie can be a bit...hyperactive..." I nodded my head in agreement with Rarity. "But darling, I must simply ask, what clothes are you wearing? They seem so bland and dreadful..."
"Well Rarity, I am wearing what is commonly known as, a Hoodie, Trackpants and a plain T-shirt underneath my Hoodie." I told her with pride. I loved wearing this type of clothes. She looked at me with a bit of disgust on her face. I felt my pride deflate a bit.
"Well, you must pay me a visit! I could make more 'colourful' outfits! Trust me, you wouldn't want to miss it!" She said to me with enthusiasm. I nodded my head. She was just trying to help after all and I do need more clothes. "Thanks Rarity!"
Next up was Rainbow Dash, "So Chris, how fast can humans fly?" Oh wow.
"Well Rainbow, humans generally can't quote on quote 'fly'," I saw her gasp, "But!" I continued, "We do have flying aircraft that are called airplanes and some of them can travel a supersonic speed of Mach 2.35. Basically 2.35 times the speed of sound!"
I saw her face contort in amazement. I think I may have broken her. "WOW! That is fast! I mean my Sonic Rainboom is pretty fast but just, wow! Not bad!" She told me.
Applejack went next, "So yer humans done pretty amazing stuff. But how do yer people grow crops and food?"
"Well Applejack, we do have farms and stuff. Farmers are still working, but mostly now, we have technologies to take over." I responded. "What kind of technologies do you guys have?" Twilight asked me with curiosity.
"Well, we have this things called computers and consoles. We also have phones." I told her. She seemed to be confused when I listed the items, "Well, I don't know most of the items that you listed but I do know computers. Apparently the engineers in Canterlot are on the verge of making monitors and they call it computers. They have all storage spaces of 1000 kilobytes! How many kilobytes does your computer have?" Bruh. 1000 Kilobytes really? Let's see if I can break Twilight's mind...
"Hmm, well Twilight. Do you know what megabytes are?" She nodded her head. "Do you know what gigabytes are?" She nodded her head once more. "Well, do you know what terabytes are?" She shook her head. "Well, my computer has 2 terabytes! And before you ask, 2 terabytes are 2000 gigabytes!" Her eye began to twitch.
"Umm, Twilight? Are you okay darling?" Rarity asked her with worry.
"2000 Gigabytes? 2000 GIGABYTES! WOW!" She screamed at me. The rest of the Mane 6 stared at her in confusion. "Girls! Comparing Chris's computer to our computer is like comparing an ant to an elephant!" All of them began to nod their heads.
As Twilight began to recover from her initial shock, Pinkie Pie went next, "So Chris! do you like cupcakes?" That was a simple question.
"Sure Pinkie!" She began smiling ear to ear. I heard a quiet whimper from the back of the group and saw Fluttershy looking at the ground. "Fluttershy?" She got startled and looked at me, "Y-yes?"
"Is there a question you want to ask me?" She nodded her head and began, "We-well, what do humans eat?"
Time to face the music, "Well...humans are omnivores..." The Mane Six gasped in bewilderment. "But, before anyone faints, I have never eaten any pony meat, and the animals back from where i come from don't really 'talk'. They're just mindless animals.." They seemed to calm down after that.
As if on cue, the atmosphere was broken by the door opening, showing Nurse Redheart pushing a cart with a tray full of food. She seemed surprise to see the Mane Six in the room. She immediately bowed before Twilight, much to her chagrin.
"It's okay Redheart. Honestly, everypony in Ponyville are my friends!" Twilight told her and she immediately raised up in embarrassment.
"Well, I'm sorry girls but it's late and it's Chris's eating time." Nurse Readheart told the Mane Six. They all agreed and left the room, not before saying goodbye to me. As they left, Nurse Redheart placed the off on my lap and told me that she would check up on other patients first. I licked my lips in anticipation before eating like a wolf. Ugh...fucking taste like cardboard.
Over the next few days, the Mane Six had been visiting me, asking me where I would be living and more questions about earth. Twilight's reaction was hilarious when I told her that we don't have anybody moving the sun and the moon. The week went fast and before I knew it, I was discharged from the hospital. As I was walking through town with the Mane Six, the whole town either gawked at me or ran to hide.
"Jeez, are they always this uptight?" I asked Twilight and her friends. "Oh hehe, I'm sure they will warm up to you soon..." She chuckled nervously.
"Oh! I have an idea! How about we throw you a party! So that the ponies will get to know you better!" Pinkie suggested. It was actually a great idea. All of us were surprised by her idea. I agreed reluctantly. Twilight offered me her place and at first I was skeptical of living for free but she assured me she had the capability of supporting me and that money was not an issue. So I settled down in her castle. Wow. I mean, I knew the castle was huge but this was on a whole another level. She gave me a room and I placed all my stuff in it. I place both my swords in the closet and put my bag on my bed. I kept my gun which had 5 bullets left in my hostler and 2 extra mags in the other two pockets. You can never be too careful...
When I went out my room and walked to the main room with the map table, I saw Twilight reading a book and Spike beside her reading a comic. "Hey Twilight!" I greeted her. She looked at me and greeted back. When Spike saw me, he walked towards me and gawked at my height, "Wow. You're tall!" I smiled at the dragon's antics.
"Hehe, Thanks dude!" I told him. Me and Twilight discussed about the party that was going to happen tomorrow and told me that I should get to bed as it's getting late. I wished her and Spike goodnight before retiring back to my bedroom. Once I reached there, I immediately crashed on top of my bed. Damn I am exhausted. Welp, can't wait till' tomorrow. Hopefully they're not too scared of me....
"Good! Now take a shower and prepare. We're going to town to get some supplies." Twilight told me. I nodded and yawned. She left my room. I got up from my bed and rubbed my eyes to clear the blurriness in my vision. After that is done, I went out my room in search of the bathroom.
After about 10 minutes of walking around aimlessly trying to find the bathroom, I finally found it and entered. It's pretty spacious wow. There's a big tub, alicorn sized, a shower place, a toilet and a sink. I turned on the tap for the bathtub, time to get comfortable!
30 minutes later -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welp, that took too long. I finally exited the bathroom with my clothes and my hair wet. Damn. I don't feel good wearing the same dirty clothes again but hey, I can't complain. Anyways, once I reached the main room, I saw Twilight and Spike having their breakfast. They had pancakes with purple syrup.
"Hey Twilight, sup Spike." I greeted them. They nodded back at me.
"Jeez, what took you so long." Twilight asked me. I flushed a bit, "Well, kinda fell asleep in the bathtub..." Twilight sighed in annoyance, "There's your plate. Spike made you the pancakes."
I nodded and sat down to eat the breakfast. When I took a bite, I swear I was in heaven. The sweetness of the syrup combined with the fresh tasty pancakes melted in my mouth. "Wow! Spike, did you really made this? This is incredible! So tasty!" I told the purple dragon. He smiled bashfully at my compliment, "Haha, thanks Chris. I really like cooking. And frankly, I'm the only one who does the cooking here. We don't want a repeat of the burnt orange juice incident..."
I looked at him quizzically and saw out of the corner of my eyes, Twilight blushing a crimson red, "Okay! That's enough. Once you finished your breakfast we'll be going out Chris!"
I simply nodded my head in agreement. Burning orange juice? How the actual fuck does someone do that? It's Orange Juice? Meh, whatever...
After a few more minutes of eating, Spike took the dishes and placed them in the sink to wash them. I offered him my help but Twilight said that he was fine...okay then. So Twilight and me went out to go shopping...yay....
As soon as we went out, eyes were immediately tossed to our direction. I felt them staring at me and was starting to get uncomfortable. Twilight could have picked up on my uneasiness as she calmed me down. Our first stop was the market. When we walked through, as usual, all the ponies's attention were focused on me. I decided to ignore them. I mean why should I complain if they wanna look at my beautiful face...hehe....fuck I'm not funny.
Anyways, as we walked through the dozens and dozens of stalls, each of them selling something different, I suddenly felt a bump on my hand. I looked on my right and saw that my hand was in a minty telekinetic glow. My hand was suddenly pulled and I lost my balance and fell.
"CHRIS!" I heard Twilight shout at me. If the ponies weren't paying attention to me, they were now. I was being pulled by the grip. I balanced back on my feet and pulled as hard as I can towards the opposite direction. The grip continued to pull. We were in a furious battle of tug of war until Twilight broke the grip. I fell flat on my ass. Ouch, that hurts. I looked towards my hand and the glow was gone.
"Stop!" I heard Twilight scream towards a mysterious figure that was trying to run away in the crowd. She had a cloak on but before she could fully vanish in the alleyway she was running towards to, I saw a glimpse of her cutie mark. A harp? Where have I seen that?
"Chris! You okay?" Twilight asked me with worry in her eyes. I looked at her and back at my hand, "Yeah, yeah....just...what was that?"
Twilight seemed to sigh, "That would be our local harp playing pony, Lyra Heartstrings. She may have....gotten a little bit excited to find you in the market place. You see, a lot of ponies have thought that she was crazy because she believed in your species. She was treated like a crazymare. The reason why she tried to 'take' you just now was probably because she could finally prove that your species were real..."
Wow. She was treated that bad? I feel bad for her now. "Twilight, is there any chance you could introduce me to her by any chance?" I asked her. She looked at me with worried eyes but once she saw the true intent of my reason, she agreed, "Maybe soon Chris but not before you get used to the town yet." I nodded.
We went to get some supplies for food to restock and after that, we decided to head to Carousel Boutique to get me new clothing.
"Cooomminngg~" A mare's voice could be heard as hoofsteps got closer to the door. When it opened, an eloquent white mare stepped out with purplish stylish hair.
"Oh! Alex and Twilight! What do I owe the pleasure of seeing you today?" Rarity asked us.
"Well Rarity, Chris over here needs some new clothes and I was wondering if you could make him some?" Twilight told her.
I swear I saw a twinkle in Rarity's eyes because what happened next surprised me. She immediately encased me with her magic and began to drag me in her Boutique.
"Well! I must say this is a surprise! But don't you worry! I will take care of you! This will be a new challenge!" Rarity said whilst pulling me. I looked to Twilight for help but she simply smiled at me.
No. No way is she going t- "Have fun Chris!" Twilight told me while shutting the door.
"NO PLEASE! MERCYYYY! MERRCCYYY!" Fuck me, this is gonna be a long day....Also Fuck You Twilight...
"Darling, you've been saying that for the past 2 hours, just let me get this final measurements ready!"
....fuck me.
I've been standing like a mannequin for the past 2 hours. How long does she have to get her measurements done? Holy shit. After what seemed like an eternity, she finally finished measuring me.
"There you go! Much better! Now, I will be drawing some designs for your clothing, you just wait down in the living room and I'll be right back!" Rarity told me while she began to draw. I stretched my stiff limbs and went downstairs. Jeez that was long. I sat down on her posh couch and looked around the room. It was quite neat and tidy. If I didn't know who she was I would have mistaken her as a Princess. So much design. I began to feel sleepy and before I knew it, I fell asleep.
I was thrown back to reality with a voice screaming in fear. I opened my eyelids and saw Sweetie Belle screaming at me.
"Hey! Hey! Calm Down! Shhh!" I told her in worry Rarity might come down here. She stopped screaming but was still shaking in fear.
"Wh-what are yo-you doing here ape!" She said to me, her voice shaking. Wow...ape huh?
"Don't worry. My name's Chris. Twilight brought me here to get some measurements for my clothes?" I responded to her. She seemed to calm down, "Oh..sorry about that. My name's Sweetie Belle!" Cuteness Overload!
Just then, Rarity appeared, "Oh! Hi there Sweetie Belle. This is Chris! He'll be living in Ponyville for the next few days!" Sweetie Belle nodded and went to her room.
"So Chris! I have 3 designs for you to choose from!" Rarity told me. She levitated 3 sheets of paper, each one of them with a different design. I looked at the first paper, it seemed like what those snobbish nobles would wear. A tuxedo with black jeans. Hmm, nah. I shook my head towards Rarity and she levitated the next paper. The next design was blue collared shirt with tight blue jeans. Simple but nah. I, again, shook my head and she levitated the final design. The final design...it had a plain T-Shirt, and some sweatpants/trackpants. Wow. I looked at her and nodded. Her smile seemed to broaden, "Thank Celestia! I thought you wouldn't pick any of them! I will get to work right away!"
Well, that settles that. I smiled and we said our goodbyes. Now, I made my way back to Twilight's place. Just as usual, the ponies began staring at me...you know what? Time to do something about it. I stared back at all of them before I took out my pistol.
"LISTEN UP!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. The streets immediately became silent. Now they're really focused.
"Listen up boneheads! See this thing I'm holding? This is a 9mm bullets handgun that can pierce through stuff. It is also know as my Mini-BOOMSTICK! If any of you dares to mess with me, I am not afraid to put a bullet in your head," I shot my gun in the sky and it produced a loud boom. I could see ponies flinch as the bullet exited the gun barrel. "So are we clear?" Silence. "ARE WE CLEAR!" They immediately yelled, "YES!"
I resumed walking to my destination. Can't believe I just pulled that off. Of course the threats were empty and I would never do any of that but that was just so they didn't see me as a doormat.
When I reached Twilight's castle, I went inside and saw Spike at one of the chairs reading a comic whilst eating a donut. "Hey Spike." I greeted him. He nodded back.
"Oh yeah Chris, by the way, Twilight said to meet her in Sugarcube Corner in about 3pm." Spike told me. I wondered confuse, "3pm? Okay then, so what's the time now?"
He told me it was 2.30pm. So I've got 30 minutes. I thanked him and went back to my room. I disassembled my gun and cleaned it out before reassembling it back. I placed it back in my hostler. I looked in my closet, thank god both my swords were still in that. I mentally checked the time, disassembling my gun takes about 15 minutes so I had 15 more minutes to kill. I decided to explore the town. As I went out, I could see ponies staring at me....again. But this time, they were more 'calm' around me. Most of them were not staring at me as much. And they went about their business as usual. As I looked around more, I realized that there were lesser ponies than usual? Meh, maybe I am really going crazy.
To be honest, I don't feel comfortable living with Twilight for free. I mean sure she was a Princess so she got plenty of money. But still, that kind of stuff doesn't really work with me. I decided to get a job. And what better way to start than to go to the Town Hall and ask Mayor Mare bout' it. I made my way there and entered the big building.
Wow, it's spacious inside. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a large billboard with a bunch of posters on it. As I went near it, I could see...pictures of monsters? Each of the posters had a picture of a beast and the words, dead or alive on some of em'. The rest were just asking it to be killed. So it's a monster hunter thingy ey? Seems interesting. I looked at the bits being offered, it ranged from 20 bits to the highest 19000 bits. Holy fucking shit! Wow! Dayum! I'll keep that in mind. I walked back and saw a pony filing cabinets. I walked up to her and asked, "Um, excuse me but could you tell me where I could find Mayor Mare's office?"
She turned around startled, "O-of course! She's right ov-over there..." She pointed her hoof towards a set of doors. I thanked her and made my way inside the room. As I opened the doors, I could see the Mayor's face turn up to look at me before she froze.
I sat down on the chair in front of her desk. We seemed to be stuck in a staring contest before I broke the ice, "Hello?"
She seemed to snap out of her stupor and greeted back, "Oh hello! My name is Mayor Mare!" She extended her hoof and I shook it back. I could sense some uneasiness in her before I said, "Don't worry. I'm living with Twilight and I'm just looking for a job. I won't eat you or anything."
She seemed to calm down, "Ah, I see. A job you say? There's plenty of jobs so what kind do you want Mr..."
"Chris" I told her. She nodded her head. "Well, Mayor, I was actually wondering about the giant billboard outside your office? What was that about? I saw giant monsters or something?" I asked her.
She seemed to froze at that question, "Ur, that would be our 'Help' posters. Ponies in Ponyville can place signs there in hopes for someone to slay creatures that have been terrorizing them. Once you have slain them, . Although, it depends on how tough the creatures are. It's quite sad seeing how no one takes the job up...but why do you ask?"
Oh wow. "Well, i'm kinda interested in it. Is there anyway I can take up that position?" I told her. Her facial features began to contort in worry.
"What!? Are you sure about that Mr Chris. The jobs are usually very dangerous? Is there really no other job I can offer you?" She told me.
"Well Mayor, I don't thing I can really fit in with the jobs. I'm not good at anything except fighting so I'm pretty sure this will be the perfect job for me..." I responded to her.
"Okay then...I understand your plight Mr Chris...but I will need time to finish your permit for hunting these creatures. Meet me again tomorrow and I will get your permit ready." She said to me. I nodded my head and thanked her.
I exited the big building and began walking to Sugarcube Corner. Well that took long enough. Welp, time to go to the 'surprise' in Sugarcube Corner.
Once I reached my destination, I prepped myself for what was about to come. I pushed the doors, it was dark. Okay...
Once I went in and closed the door behind me, the lights went on with a barrage of ponies shouting surprise. Obviously I saw this coming but I acted surprise anyways.
"OH MAH GAUD!" I screamed back. Pinkie appeared beside me, "Were you surprised? Huhuhu? Of course you were, weren't you!" I nodded my head. Her smile widened.
The Mane Six began walking towards me, each of them congratulating me. I just smiled.
Throughout the party, ponies were mingling with me and getting to know me better. Most of them laughed when I told them jokes about my world. It seemed that the ponies were getting comfortable with me. That was good. So none of them would attack me. After a few minutes of talking to the ponies, I told them that I would go sit down a bit. I went to a corner and sat down with a drink in my hand. I was getting a bit lightheaded but that was fine. Nothing I couldn't handle.
"Hey Chris!" Rainbow Dash flew towards me. I looked to my right and saw that she had sat across me. "Sup Dash." I greeted her.
"So what're you doin' here? Aren't you enjoying the party?" She asked me. "Well Rainbow, I am enjoying the party but I just had to rest a bit." I responded to her. She nodded and we began to chat about stuff. I told her more about planes and the Blue Angels and she told me about the 'WonderBolts'. We were exchanging information. After a while, she decided to challenge me to a hoofwrestle.
"Alright Rainbow I accept your challenge, but! We have to make rules. What happens to the loser?" I asked her.
"How about this, if I lose, which I clearly won't, I will do any dare you tell me to do! But if you lose, you have to....buy me tickets to the WonderBolts next show!" Rainbow told me.
"One Question, how much does it cost?" I asked her. "Umm, 5000 bits per ticket!" She responded.
"....WHAT THE FUCK?!" I screamed. Loud but not loud enough for people to hear me due to the loud music being played. Rainbow began to smile sheepishly. "Rainbow...I have no money..." I told her. "Well, losers do have excuses don't they?" She taunted me.
"...Bring it on biatch." I challenged her. Our hands and hoofs began to grip each other, our elbows on the table. We began to push each other's fist against the opposite direction. It was a furious battle. It seems that I underestimated Rainbow's strength, she was putting up a good fight but I still have the advantage due to the grip I had on her hoof. I began to double my efforts and push her hoof. Her hoof began to lower down but she pushed it back and we leveled it back. I didn't notice we were gathering a crowd before I heard Pinkie's voice, "This is so exciting!"
It seemed that Rainbow was surprised as well but she did not lose her focus. After a few minutes, both of us were beginning to be tired. I could see Rainbow's hoof shaking a bit. I decided to use this opportunity to push her hoof down. She was surprised but then managed to level it again. Oh for fuck sakes.
"I must say Chris! You are not bad!" She said while sweating.
"Thanks Rainbow! You're not bad either!" I told her in a similar situation.
Alright time to end this. I pushed her hoof as hard as I can and she seemed to falter. Her hoof was not a few inches off the table. She pushed my hand back as hard as she could and she managed to lift it up a few inches.
"Give it up Chris! This is not going to end if you keep doing this!" She told me with a smirk. My mind thought of a plan and I began to smile, "You're right Rainbow. So GG."
I let go of all the strength I had and Rainbow seemed surprise as she pushed my hand back with ease. Just as she thought she was about to win, I pushed it back with all my strength and her hoof smashed the table. It was silent.
"WOW!" Pinkie screamed. Everyone snapped out of their shock and started clappping and cheering. I saw Rainbow's dumbfounded face.
'Hey, it's fine Dash. It was obvious who would win. Hehe!" I told her with a cocky grin. "Bu-but how!??" She screamed in confusion.
I just smiled at her antics and walked away as her brain tried to think of an answer on how she lost. The Mane Six were surprised when I won and congratulated me. Over the next few hours, we were all dancing and laughing the night away. It was fun. I must say I have never ever felt this happy in my entire life.
Once the party ended everypony went back home. Me and the Mane Six stayed around to help clean-up. Once that was done, we split our ways and went back home.
On the way back, Twilight asked me, "So Chris, did you enjoy yourself?"
"To be honest Twilight, Yea. I did. I wasn't expecting to have that much fun!" I told her with a grin on my face.
She smiled back, "Well, it is a Pinkie Pie party. She always knows how to make everypony smile!"
"True, True..."
So for the next few minutes, we walked in silence until we reached the castle. Once inside, I bid her and Spike goodnight as I went to my bedroom. As I laid on my bed, I thought about the events that had transpired over the past few days. Being teleported to Equestria. Being friends with the mane six. Finding out the future of Equestria depends on you. Just wow....I wonder if I ever was going to go back to my world. I had friends and family but I couldn't just abandon Equestria knowing that it depends on me. As my thoughts wondered deeper, I began to shift into the world of unconsciousness.
My eyes began to feel a burning sensation. I opened my eyes to be greeted with the sunlight shining directly in my eyes. I looked away and rub the blurriness out of my eyes. After that I sat up straight on my bed and looked around the room I was in. All the memories from yesterday began flooding in my mind.
"Good thing I'm still here," I said aloud to myself. I began standing up and my legs began to wobble, I grab the edge of my bed and started to balance myself out. After that I walked towards my closet to get different clothing, exited my bedroom and began walking to the bathroom. After walking around aimlessly for a few minutes I found a door with the sign, 'Bathroom; on it. I chuckled on how they needed signs to find certain rooms. Oh, the struggles of living in a big-ass house. I entered it and turned on the water to fill in the tub. I stripped naked and began dipping me body into the warm liquid. I looked around the bathroom, it was fairly large. I was in a bathtub at the very corner of the room. There was a big circular pool and some other bathroom necessities. I began to relax myself in the tub and soon i became drowsy.
My eyes suddenly opened when I picked up sounds of hooves coming closer and closer into the bathroom door. My heart began racing and sweat dripped down my forehead. 'Oh shit Oh shit Oh shit. Please don't enter Twilight!' I thought in my head. I tried to warn Twilight but before I could, the door was encased in a lavender glow and it snapped open. An alicorn walked in with her towel while humming a song. When she caught sight of the human in the tub, our eyes locked together. Her cheeks began to blush.
"Urr Twilight, you oka-" I was interrupted by a loud girly scream that echoed throughout the whole castle. She began running out the door flinging the bathroom door shut behind her trail.
'Well that went better than expected...'
Once I finished scrubbing my body down and brushing my teeth and washing my hair, I exited the tub and began drying myself with a towel. I unplugged the cork and soon all the water began swirling down the hole. I then wore my new fresh clothes. I grab my dirty clothes and began walking out the bathroom to find the laundry room.
I found it and placed my clothes into the washing machine and began making my way to the living room. Once I reached there, I saw Spike and Twilight eating their breakfast. I saw Twilight look at me with a crimson blush on her cheek. I saw a plate and an extra plate for me. There were pancakes as usual. I sat down and began eating.
"So...." I started.
"So...."
"....Sorry for the incident...back there..." I apologized.
"Oh, it's not your fault. It's mine. I should have heard the bathtub water. I used the other bathroom..." Twilight assured me. I saw Spike look at us with a weird look but didn't bother questioning it. The rest of the meal was silent with the occasional sip of water and chewing of food.
After eating, I insisted doing the dishes. While I was doing the dishes, Spike told us he was going to clean up the library for a bit. Twilight took out and apple from the fridge and sat on the table.
"So, Twilight, I have a job now." I told her casually. She looked at me surprised and asked me what job it was.
"Well, I was at the Town Hall and asked Mayor Mare about the billboard outside. She told me about the job of slaying monsters or whatever and earn money for it. Basically a bounty hunter but slaying monsters...a Monster Hunter?"
I heard shrieking and then a gasp of worry, "Chris! Are you serious? Those jobs are really dangerous! I think you should reconsider! If you want, I could always give a job at the library. I told you I'm a princess, I can support you too!"
I sighed, "Sorry Twi, I can't just freeload like that. If I can I would like to pay rent. And I really don't want to be given these things for free. I want to be independent." I refrained from telling her my interaction with Ethereal Star.
I heard her click her tongue in annoyance and sigh, " I understand Chris...just be careful out there alright? You're not forced to do these things." Oh you have no idea Twi. I merely nod and began drying the plates.
After cleaning the dishes, I walked back to my room and grabbed my stuff. I wore my hostler and began sheathing all my weapons. My sword, my gun and whatnot. after that, I bid Twilight goodbye and began walking towards the Town Hall. While walking there, I noticed that ponies were not gawking at me like they did before. Well, at least not all of them.
'They were beginning to ease up on me...that's good' I thought to myself. After 10 minutes of walking, I reached my destination. I enter the building and entered the Mayor's room. She saw me and smiled, motioning me to sit down.
"So Mayor, you got my permit?" I asked her.
"Well Chris, I certainly got it. She's right behind you." She told me.
I gave her a confused look before turning around. I saw a black coated unicorn mare with light brown mane and glasses. Her cutie mark was glasses overlapping a book. She wore a business suit. She had aqua green eyes as well. Kinda cute.
"Greetings, you must be Chris! I am Lawful Justice and I am going to be your lawyer!" She greeted me with a smile. I shook her hoof and turn around giving the Mayor a confused look.
"Well Chris. Many hunters often get in trouble with the law while trying to do their job. Some of the residence will often call the guards on them and they were arrested. Their lawyers would help defend them and continue their job. This is basically your legal consultant. She will gain 10% of what you earn." Mayor Mare told me. So the job is more complicated than I thought...shit...I turned around and looked at Lawful's eyes with a hint of worry in my eyes.
She smiled at me, "Don't worry Chris! It's not that hard. As long as you don't murder anypony I should be okay to defend you!" Thanks for the reassurance...
I smiled back, "Alright...so where's my permit?"
"Well...hold on Chris this may sting a little bit..." Lawful laughed nervously. I was confused but then her horn started glowing in a blackish aura. She then aim it on my chest and before I knew it, struck me with a bolt of magic.
I gripped my chest in pain as a burning sensation began to wash over my body. I fell to my knees and just groan in agony. What was happening to me!? Was this an assassination? I wallowed in pain as the burning sensation began to burn my body even further.
"AURGHH!" I screamed in pain. My head began throbbing. After a while, the heating sensation began dying down and after a few more minutes it stopped. I panted heavily while sweat drenched my body. After regaining my composure back, I saw that my left hand was glowing in a bright yellow and blue light. Once the light died down, I saw that my left hand had two long chain-like blackish marks that stretched and swirled all around my whole left arm from my elbow up to my wrist. I saw that the chains stopped at the back of my hand with the equestrian logo on it. Half of the circle was the sun with a white alicorn on it while the other half was the moon with a bluish alicorn on it.
I stared up at the two ponies looking at me with worry.
"Can ANYPONY TELL ME WHAT JUST HAPPENED!?" I yelled at their faces. Needless to say I was not happy.
Both of them shared an uncomfortable look before Lawful spoke up, "I placed a rune signature on you as a bounty hunter so you would be locked in the contract. That is the Equestrian Symbol right there as you got your contract from Equestria. There are other hunters with different symbols. It varies from where you come from. So...congrats...you're officially a bounty hunter now!"
I looked at them in disbelief before saying, "So why didn't you tell me that I was gonna feel like my body just dipped in alcohol and lit on fire?!" They both lowered their heads in shame. I sighed and rubbed my temple, "It's fine...as long as I'm not hurt. Does this mean I can start work now?"
Both of them perked up and nodded. Mayor Mare spoke up, "Oh yes! We just need some last paperwork before you can start!"
After signing the paperwork Mayor Mare bid me farewell and good luck on my job. I left the building with my new legal consultant and started to head for the billboard.
While on the way there we started some small talk, "So, how did you find me?"
She chuckled before smiling, "Well, the Mayor called my office in Manehattan and told me about you. I was a little weary at first about accepting the job but when she told me everypony else had turned her down when they heard you were not native, I accepted the job. I told my boss and he agreed to find me a place to stay and pay my salary while I work here!"
"Wow. Thanks for accepting I guess..." I told her bashfully.
Once we reach the billboard, I could see all the different abominations. They honestly creeped me out. As my eyes scan over on which one to pick, I heard Lawful speak up, "Maybe you wanna go for an easier one? All of them have their level of difficulty and the amount of reward you will get. The harder it is, the more bits you'll get of course. To get you into the job, you may want to pick an easier one?"
I nodded and settled on a poster that showed illustrations of timberwolves. I clipped the poster off the billboard and turned it around. There was a mini description on it,
There were sightings of Timberwolves around Sweet Apple Acres. Recently, their livestocks were attacked and if this continues our supply of milk and eggs will slowly diminish. It is your job to go there and hunt the pack that was attacking the livestocks.
It even showed what their weakness was and what abilities they possessed which includes being able to see in the dark, nimble and fast, and the fact that they hunt in packs. It seems that they are weak with fire huh? Figures, my first battle with them was obvious enough.
I flipped the paper back and saw some other writing. Difficulty, easy. Reward, 70 bits. Hmm, easy enough.
I looked over at Lawful who smiled back and nodded. Guess I got my first mission.
"So how do you accept it?" I asked her when suddenly, the mark on my hand began glowing and the poster began glowing as well. It began flashing different colours before it flashed green.
"That means that you're free to do this mission and no one has claimed it yet!" Lawful told me. I nodded in agreement. Honestly, this shit was trippy but did I question it? No, because magic is fucking weird.
I folded the poster and stuffed it in my pocket, looks like we're going to Sweet Apple Acres.
As I began walking there with Lawful, we began making small talk as usual. She was curious as to how I got here and what my species accomplished. I wished I had took a picture when I told her we had brought a man to the moon. It was priceless.
After walking for about half an hour, I began to catch the apple trees. We're getting closer. I saw the entrance to the farm and walked in. I reached the big red house and knocked on it a couple of times. After a few seconds, a yellow filly with a red bowtie opened the door. She looked up at me and we stared at each other.
"Hi, I'm here to se-" I was cut off by a scream of fear.
'Really? That's the second time today!' I thought to myself. I sensed Lawful who was behind me flinch a little bit.
"Applebloom! What happened!" I heard a southern accented voice asked in worry before galloping hooves began coming nearer and nearer towards me.
"Applejack! There's a monster here!" Applebloom yelled. I sighed and facepalmed. Of course.
Once the galloping stopped, I turned to my left to see Applejack panting heavily looking like she was ready to fight. Once she saw me and Applebloom, she sighed.
"Applebloom, this is Chris. Ya' know, the fellar I was talkin to you about?" She told her little sister in annoyance.
"Ohhh! I'm sorry Chris!" She apologized with a cute smile. I smiled back.
"So what're you doin' ere Chris? And who's that mare behind ya'?" Applejack told me.
"Well, this is Lawful, my lawyer. And I'm here to do my job." I told her. Lawful shook her hand before I continued, "I'm here as a bounty hunter." I showed Applejack the poster.
"Oh! What didn't ya say so? I got to warn ya though Chris, be careful out there! Those nitty buggers are fast!" She told me with advice. I smiled and thanked her. After that, Applejack led me and Lawful to the corner of the farm where all the livestocks were. There was a clearing where a path was that leads into the Everfree Forest. I thanked her and she went back to buck the trees.
"So, Lawful. I guess I'm going in there alone then?" I asked her.
"What? Are you kidding me! I'm not gonna leave you alone. Most employers usually stay in their office but I'm going to help you!" Lawful told me with a determined smile.
"But you're not even armed! You're gonna be easily injured out there!" I told her. She smirked at my comment before her horn glowed. I saw her take off her suit and I blushed a little but after that, under her suit was a pair of daggers. Wow...she's starting to grow on me..hehe.
We then made way into the forest. Once we were in deep enough, it started to get dark. Luckily, Lawful had cast a light spell so we could see. We kept on walking before I heard growling and green eyes surrounding us.
"Looks like we've got company!" The unicorn said with excitement in her voice. I smiled back. The owners of the growls then made themselves known to us. There were many timberwolves surrounding us. None of us made any moves before one of the wolves jumped on me. I sidestepped his attack and the other wolves began attacking. I unsheathed my Avian and Reaper before slicing one of them. The wooden twigs fell down but I had no time to lose as I smashed my foot against one of the wolves who decided to come close to me.
I looked over at Lawful who was handling those wolves like a pro! She levitated her weapons and began slicing every wolf who surrounded her. As she was finishing one of the wolves, another one was about to pounce behind her but she teleported away from the attack and blasted a bolt at it. The wolf howled in pain as the twigs began to disassemble. I had to refocus my attention to my opponents. There were 4 surrounding me.
'This is gonna be hard...' I thought. One of the wolves began charging at me while biting everywhere trying to land a hit. Another one behind me began to do the same thing. I ran towards the one in front of me and stabbed my Avian at his jaw, not enough to completely kill him however and spun my sword around, dislodging him at his teammate behind me. The other two began changing their stance down low, ready to pounce on me. Unfortunately for them, I was not gonna wait. I began running towards one of them. It caught him by surprise as he scrambled to try and get away but I was too quick and smashed my Reaper at him. His wooden body fell and split apart. Before I could finish the other one, I felt a biting sensation on my right leg and saw the wolf biting down on it. I began shaking it off before it finally let go. I then kicked it once for it to stumble back and slammed both my weapons on it's head with a roar.
I panted heavily and looked at my now bleeding leg. It didn't hurt as much but I could feel the blood trickle down my foot. I looked over at Lawful to see her finishing off the last wolf with a quick slice. She then sheathed her weapons against her rump?
She saw me and walked over, "Jeez, did one of em got your leg?"
I nodded, "Yea, fucker got me."
Both of us then started walking towards the exit with her mainly asking if I was okay to which I replied yes. When we reached Sweet Apple Acres, Applejack started thanking us along with Big Mac, Applebloom and Granny Smith. She then started treating my leg and got it wrapped up. I was still able to walk though. We then made our way to Town hall.
"You wanna know the best part about today Chris? Ya know, besides slaying wolves." Lawful asked me.
After getting our bits from Mayor Mare, I gave Lawful 10% of what I earned....she got 7 bits....7. As we were walking back to our houses, I asked her, "Are you really fine with 7 bits?"
She giggled at my question and replied, "Oh it's fine. This is like a tip. I mean, I'm already getting paid from my boss so that's nor problem!" Jeez she was cute.
After parting ways, I head back home to find Twilight reading a book and Spike reading some comics. "Hey Chris! How was your day at work?" Twilight asked me. She glanced down at my leg and before she could make any comments, I cut her off, assuring that I was fine. She looked at me skeptically before letting me off to go to bed. Today's a tiring day, gotta say. After a couple of minutes, sleep began taking over my body.
This became a normal routine for me. Woke up, have breakfast and then out to hunting. We would usually hunt the lower end of the spectrum but one day, Lawful suggested to try the medium difficulty. We have been hunting Timberwolves and Cockatrices and Slimes for the past few days, I mean, I gotta upgrade some day. I agreed and we looked for some other monsters. My eyes wondered over each title. "Warbeast", "Frost Yeti", "DeathFairy". Fuckin' hell, these beasts sounds like the creatures of nightmares. This is surprising to say the least, coming from the most peaceful town. Eventually, I settled for the "Bomb-Birds". I took off the poster and looked at the information.
Title : Bomb-Birds Difficulty : Medium Reward : 340 (Bits)
These speedy flying creatures were seen near the Everfree Forest's Entrance. It has made it hard for the local Shaman to come in Ponyville and help our sick patients. Get rid of these creatures so that we can get our remedy from the local Shaman.
Weakness : Colours Strengths : Able to fly fast, have sharp wings, carry bomb-like circular plants in their talons, able to spit acid.
Damn. I guess the local Shaman must mean Zecora. I looked over at Lawful who was just looking back at me with a smile.
"Guess, we're going for this one" I told her casually. She nodded her head. I raised the poster and began sucking the magical force it had. My mark on my hand began glowing and flashing colours, it stopped on the colour green. Bingo.
We began making our way to the Everfreee Entrance. While walking there, I saw that ponies no longer looked at me as a monster, but a protector. They no longer were terrified of me. Some of them even waved.
"Guess, they're beginning to grow on you" Lawful told me. I responded, "Guess so..."
We reached our destination after a few minutes and looked around. This place was quite bright. One thing I learned from past experiences was to scout around the area to see what you could use as your advantage. You do not want to be caught in a situation where you have nothing to use against your opponents...
Flashback
I was running from the green like slime creature. Both my weapons were covered in goo, rendering them useless and heavy to swing. My bullets had no effect on them and only slowed them down. The only way to exterminate the slimes was to either cut them in pieces quickly before they could regenerate, squash them till' those fuckers were flat on the ground, or burn them. It seems like the last option was the only one available for me. I didn't know where Lawful was as we were separated when I booked it out of there. I felt bad about leaving her but I had to. There was still a couple of them on my ass. As I was running, I didn't notice I ws running straight to a cliff. By the time I realized, I was already to fast to break my speed, I slid on the jagged ground and tore someof my clothing. I then managed to grab hold the edge of the cliff and hang there. I could hear the slimy fucks coming closer. I looked down, it was a fucking good lenght for me to die if I dropped. I began trying to pull myself up but I started to hear cracks and backed down. Was this my fate? Luckily, I heard cries of my name. "CHRIS! WHERE ARE YOU?" I could only assume that was her. "OVER HERE!" I yelled back. I heard galloping coming closer. Before I knew it, I heard the magical bolts fire on each slime, disintegrating them. Lawful pulled me up and I immediately hugged her. I was scared for my life. I am glad she's here with me. I thanked her and she just smiled at my affection towards her. That was lesson one, learn my surroundings and try to make sure I don't jump off a cliff.
I shook the memory out of my head and continued to look around. I saw a few rocks that we could hide behind. Some trees and logs. And...that's pretty much it.
"So how do we lure them out again?" I heard Lawful ask from behind me, already unsheathing her two daggers. I shrugged my shoulders and saw her sigh. I continued to scan our surroundings again. I was broken out my stupor when I heard what sounded like a death-screech.
"SCRAAAAA" I looked up and saw black coated birds with white wings and red eyes fly around us. They had what looked like plants in their claws and dripping green venom from their beaks. Their wings looked like it could cut a whole tree.
"Guess we found em" I told Lawful. I unsheathed both my swords and began taking a defensive stance. One of the birds started flying closer to me and tried to slice me with it's wings. I stabbed my Avian at it's wings and was surprised to hear a metal clank back. Looks like their wings were made out of metal?
I turned around and saw Lawful dodging the wing attacks. She was easily flowing through their attacks, unscathed. I re-focused my attention to a bird that was flying directly at me with his beak aiming at my chest. I readied my stance to counter his attack when suddenly, he spat a green goo directly at my direction. I was surprised and barely rolled out of the way. A small amount clipped my right sleeve. I saw my a portion of my sleeve disappear as the venom burned through it.
"Be careful of their slime thing, they fucking burn!" I yelled back at Lawful who nodded. I stood up, gripping both swords before running towards a low-flying bird. It obviously caught it by surprise as it tried to change his flight direction but it was too late as I swung my scythe downwards, hooking his head before doing a spin and smashing his whole body to the ground. A mixture of red and green bled out of it's body. Gross.
I pulled out my Reaper and began running towards another one. I was flung back by an explosion in front of me, causing me to lose both my weapons.
"CHRIS! Are you okay?" I heard Lawful shout as he gallop beside me.
"Yea, I'm fine..." I respond. As the smoke clears up, I saw black ashes covering the grass of where I previously stood. I looked up and saw the bird that dropped the explosive plant on me. He was currently regenerating another one. I found my swords laying on the grass, luckily, still usable. I picked them up and sheathed them. I had another idea.
I took out my gun out of it's hostler and began aiming at the birds. A few of them hovered still while the rest scattered. They looked confused, don't even know how birds look confuse but I took a deep breath and pulled the trigger.
"click-BANG" The sound of the shot echoed throughout the area. I was momentarily deafened before I recovered.
"Thump" I saw the lifeless body of the bird drop down onto the ground, bearing a hole directly on it's chest. I looked up and saw the birds flying around in disarray. Were they deafened by the sound? Whatever, I didn't hesitate to shoot the remaining. I could see some being struck down by Lawful's magical blast as well. Soon, we had already eliminated most of them. There were still some flying. I kept my gun back at it's rightful place and began channeling my flames.
"Let's see what these things can do" I whispered to myself as flames began englufing my arms. I looked at my arms with childlike wonder and looked at one of the flying monsters. I held my palm towards it as I concentrated on it.
My arm immediately jerked back as a beam of fire shot out, disintigrating the flying bird. I saw as the ashes of what was once a creature fall from the sky, being carried by the wind.
"I.AM.A.FIRE.GOD!" I yelled out as flames surrounded my body.
"No you're not," Lawful interrupted me as she threw her dagger towards a bird, stabbing it and boomeranging back towards it's owner.
I looked at her, peeved, "Jeez, gotta ruin a moment do you?"
She smiled at my statement and rolled her eyes. I looked back towards the bodies of the birds. The place was a bloody mess filled with guts and gore. Suddenly, I felt a pulsating feeling from my hand and the hunter symbol glowed signifying that I have completed my mission. I looked over to Lawful and she nodded. She casted a cleansing spell to remove the remaining carcass. We then went off our merry way.
We got our bits and split paths. Lawful went back to wherever she was staying and I was free to do whatever I want. Since I was bored out of my skull, I decided to go to Sugarcube Corner to get a treat.
I opened the door and was greeted to a pink blur smashing into me.
"HI CHRIS ARE YOU HERE TO GET SOME CUPCAKES?" Pinkie screamed at me. I was momentarily stunned before I could form a proper response.
"Yes I am but stop screaming Pinkie!" I responded. She giggle and whispered a quick sorry before sprinting back to the counter with a flash. I walked up to it and saw what they had. Chocolate cupcakes, Strawberry Frosting...hmm...
"I think I'll get the Cookies and Cream one," I said to her. "Okie Dokie Lokie!" She repsonded before disappearing to the kitchen. I waited for a few seconds before she came back with the bag of cupcake. Jeez that was fast..
"That'll be 5 bits!" I handed her the bits and took my bag. I can now afford shit, thank you very much. I exited the store and started heading back to the library. On the way back, I ran into these group of ponies. They looked like what you'd expect from your local bar. One of them which I presumed was their leader went up to me and poked my chest.
"Hey you monkey. You don't belong here! Get out of our town!" He said with a smug voice. His henchmen nodded to each other. Can't believe I actually have to deal with this shit.
"Listen man Im not here to start trouble. Just leave me alone," I said with an even voice. Honestly I have some pent up stress that I need to release and this might be the perfect solution.
"Even if the element bearers accepted you into here, we don't! And we're gonna do something about it!" He said while getting into a fighting stanc. Aw shit, it's about to get real. Obviously he didn't notice the beatiful gleaming weaponry on my back otherwise he wouldn't have started this fight. My hand subconsciously brushed over my gun.
He ran up to me and swung his hoof. I doubled his size so the intended target of his hoof missed its mark. He rebounded and tried to headbutt my stomach. I simply blocked his head with my right hand. He struggled to push it back and then went back to swinging.
After about a few attempts of trying to get me, I got bored. What do I do next when I get bored you ask? Easy. I fuck around.
When he swung next, I grabbed his hoof, swung him backwards and slammed him onto the ground. He hit the ground with an oof. That's gotta hurt.
"Wh-what are you doing? A-Attack!" He said to his henchmen. They hesitated, I looked at them and gave them a predatory smile, being extra sure to show my canine tooth to them. They took a step back and ran. So much for loyalty. I stared back at the downed pony. He was struggling to get up it's almost sad at this point.
"J-Just wait for the Pri-Princess to hear about this!" He said trying to intimidate me.
"Oh c'mon dude just give it up. Let me eat my damn cupcake man" At this point there was a crowd gathering and I started to feel a bit of anxiety. He finally got the damn message and left. I resumed my walk to the castle, eating my delicious cupcake with a grin on my face. Worth it.
