Escape
Visions
Load Full StoryNext ChapterThe dark cold night air blowed on my squinted eyes as I looked at the slowly changing number on the ham radio, praying and hoping I would finally hear a new voice, nether caring if it was clear or static.
"Hello is this thing on?" I said tapping my hoof on the big black radio box. "Is anypony out there? Please… is anypony out there." That was it. My hope was quickly draining, fearing that I might be one of the last three survivors until…
"Hello. I can hear you.My name's Breeze." A static gargle said through it's speaker, but I didn't care. Finally a new voice.
"Yes hello. My name is… um… dammit I I still cant remember." I loathed the fact that I've forgotten everything about myself. My name, my age (although I do look young so I would say mid 20s), my favourite foods, music, games, friends, absolutely EVERYTHING. The only thing I do remember before my whole 'hospital' incident was an explosion, but that's it.
"Hey partner, ya there?" The static gurgle spit out. "I asked what's your position. I'm trapped in ma gun store in Ponyville." His words shot me like a bullet.
Ponyville?
I saw a flash of light and I somehow appeared in the past. How do I know it was the past you may ask? It was calm.
"Come on Mr. Slow hooves. Just because of your injured doesn't mean you can't run." A bubbly pink pony said bouncing around me.
"He cracked his leg Pinks, he can't run. A rainbow mane Pegasus said defending me.
"Excuses excuse. You're lucky you got a broke leg Ev or I would beat you".
Just as the pink pony, who I believe name is Pinks, or that quite possibly be a nick name, stopped bouncing on me, a static noise brought me back to the current the current time.
"Hey mista, ya still there? I ask for your position. You've been quiet for five minutes."
"Did you say Ponyville?" I blankly said into the talkie thing.
"Yep. Easy Breezy One Stop Gun Shop."
"I'm in Ponyville at this minute. Just give me directions to the shop and I'll come first thing in the morning."
He started to list roads, houses, companies, and land marks that I would pass to get to his shop.
"Just hang tight. We'll be there tomorrow morning if there isn't a horde." I said as a voice made me turn of the radio.
"Hey Three, we're back." A smiling unicorn followed by a baby dragon said as she checked to make sure nothing followed her to her (well now 'our') sanctuary.
"Hey Twi. Any trouble with the walkers?" I said as she sat next to me.
Me and Twilight met after the explosion. I was wondering through the woods with nothing but a little bit of bread and a spiked wooden stick. I wandered into to the *surprisingly* abandoned town and saw this large tree with a broke window and the lights off, so I decided it was abandoned and made my way in only to be greeted by a hard metal pipe.
"Hey Three. Any voices on the box?" The baby dragon said as he made his way to a bookshelf.
"Y-no. Guess nopony out there wanted to talk."
The only reason I didn't talk about Breeze is because I didn't want them to go crazy about it. Twilight always shed a tear every time we passed Sugercube Corner, Sweet Apples Acres, The Carousel Boutique, or Fluttershy's old cottage. Where I was going, I was passing all four locations. I didn't want go tell Spike because I know he'll want to jump into action with me but he is to slow to keep up. He'll just slow me down. I need to go, get Breeze, kill a couple walkers, and come back.
"Well that's a bummer. I'm starting to think that we're the only survivors." Spike said as he fell on his butt with a large book in claws.
"Me To Spiker, me too." I said rubbing his head.
As I was rubbing his head, a vision of my past came back. It was night, it was quiet, and the only light was from a flashing tv. It was a rerun of an old show. My eyes were droopy but shot open after the laugh of a little filly.
"I wuv this show brafer(brother)." She said as her laugh made me smile.
"Yea I do too kiddo." I said rubbing her small bushy mane. Then I snapped back to reality
"Umm Three… you alright?" Twilight said looking me dead in my eyes with worry.
"Yeah, what makes you worry?" I said as I looked around to see itvwas darker.
"You've been staring at nothing for a hour now. We need to get some sleep." She said we made our way to our rooms but she stopped me before I entered my room.
"Three, you mind sleeping with me again?" She said not looking at me. She was always embarrassed of asking me this. Before any of you jump to conclusions nothing ever happens. She ask me to do this because of some horrible nightmares. When I was first staying here, I would wake up to hear crying from her room. I would wake her up, which led to me sleeping in her room if she needed me, which turned into me sleeping in her bed so she would roll over if she needed comfort.
"Yea Twilight." I said closing the little gap with a click and followed her into her room.
I fell onto her bed first so she could lay her neck on my leg to hold her for protection.
Hours passed(at least I think) and I woke to find Twilight crying, which being a gentlecolt I was, broke my heart. I held her close, hoping the tears would. Later in the night, I got my wish, but this happens more the once a night and I have to leave to find this Breeze character, but I just couldn't leave Twilight like this, so I had to make a choice. Stay with Twilight and comfort her, or venture into the wilderness that is now Ponyville to find somepony that owns a gun shop.
Okay so I'm giving you the power to chose what happens, but your choices have a big impact on the story.
A. Three leaves Twilight to find Breeze.
or
B:Three decides Breeze he's safe inside his gun shop and stays with Twilight. (Which could lead to some romance)
Happy picking.
