Equestrian Horizon: The Elements of Chaos

Chapter 13

The Next few days was a blur. Our heroes pretty much got nowhere with their research. Taylor and Hunter tried to do some further investigation on the Leviathan but made no progress. Seth and Michael found nothing back in Ponyville. Chandler murdered the terrorist he kept prisoner. And Brandon was to busy making time with his new sister by just hanging out along with also developing models for his weapons in Rainbow Dash’s house as he couldn’t bare to go back to his dad’s house and break the news. He wasn’t really a fan of “Sappy” moments. The days went on as the group did nothing. They hardly talked to each other or even thought of each other. Taylor and Hunter did bring up some of their research with the group but kept most of it to themselves. They wanted to make sure that their theories were right before they went further into it. Brandon had told everyone about his new sister. And Chandler wanted to just not tell everyone that he murdered their only primary source. They all just went about their business. Nothing eventful really happened. But this doesn’t mean that the group became more distant. Brandon had just gotten the idea of getting the group together for a night out. A night out on Canterlot that is…

It was a nice summer afternoon at a local diner in Ponyville. The group had finished talking about their recent activities. Brandon felt like it was about time the group got together and did something.

“Hey guys,” said Brandon, “So I’ve been thinking.”

“Uh oh,” said Michael, “That’s Dangerous.”

“Alright I get it Mr. Smart Ass” said Brandon

“Hey just messing with you man,” said Michael

“So I’ve been thinking,” said Brandon, “We should hang out tonight.”

“We’re hanging out right now..” said Seth as he leaned back in his chair.

“No,” said Brandon, “”We ate dinner. I wouldn’t really call this ‘Hanging Out’”

“Man’s got a point” said Taylor, “Right Chandler?”

“I didn’t kill him!!” said Chandler as he sat, shaking in his chair.

“Are you okay man?” said Hunter

“What?” said Chandler still shaking in anxiety, “Yeah I’m okay! Why wouldn’t I be okay? It’s not like I killed our only link as to finding out what happened at the weather factory or anything. hehe”

The group stood looking at him in confusion. Brandon proceeded, “Anyways” he said, “What I mean by Hang out is ‘A Night Out in Canterlot’. 7 bars! One night!”

“Brandon, we’re 16,” said Seth,

“You’re point,” said Brandon,

“Guys keep in mind, nearly a week ago we were supposed to meet up with a Mexican drug dealer.” said Taylor

“So what do you say?” said Brandon, “I even invited the girls along.”

Michael shot up and tackled Brandon, “Even Fluttershy?”

“What? Yeah all six of them.” said Brandon

“Fuck Head here’s been getting too friendly with his pony friend.” said Seth

“Yeah. Yeah.” said Taylor, “What about Rarity?”

“Didn’t you just fucking here me?” said Brandon, “All of them are coming!”

Taylor jumped up in excitement and immediately got a grip of himself.

“So guys,” said Hunter, “Night out on Canterlot or what?”

“Fuck Yeah” said Michael and Taylor simultaneously.

“Why the fuck not?” said Seth

Everyone looked at Chandler. Hunter spoke, “What about you Chandler?”

“I didn’t kill him!” said Chandler

“I’ll take that as a yes!!” said Brandon

The group high fives and ran off to their place. Seth and Michael went back to the library. Hunter and Taylor went back to the Castle. Chandler back to the airship and Brandon went back to Rainbow Dash’s house.

That night, the group met at the main entrance in the Canterlot Castle. The girls showed up a few minutes afterwards. Everypony was already excited for the night. It was going to be an experience unlike any other they had before.

“So,” said Twilight, “You guys ready?”

“Ready as Hell” said Taylor

“Alright Brandon,” said Hunter “What’s the plan bro?”

Brandon pulled out a map, “First bar we hit, The Fallen Pegasus. A full on Club complete with Strip Center, Bar, Dance Floor, Peep Show, and Private Lounges. The Plan is to go to 7 different bars tonight starting from least intense to most intense”

“And this one’s the least intense?” Michael asked

“Fuck Yeah man!” said Brandon

“Out of curiosity. What’s the most intense Place?” said Taylor

“Oh that’s surprise!” said Brandon as he threw away the map

The group set out to go party. The walk there was long but not boring. The group went laughing and and chatting all throughout the walk. Taylor got to know Rarity a bit more, same for Michael and Fluttershy, Hunter went talking with Twilight and Seth about recent cultural events. And Brandon, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash talked with each other. The conversation made the walk pretty quick. Before they knew it, they were there. They stood right in front of The Fallen Pegasus Club. The building stood high above them glowing in purple neon, and spotlights.

“Alright!” said Taylor, “Let’s do this!”

The crew kicked through the doors as the loud music rushed in their ears. Lights gleamed all throughout the Club as the dancers performed on the stage. Lonely stallions from across the city lined up on around the stage throwing money at the dancers. The bar was filled with drunks, bastards, and scumbag businessmen as they collapsed upon the tables and were escorted out of the place. The dance floor was lit up with happy couples and guys trying to make it to first base.

The group scattered into different sections of the club. Twilight, Hunter, Chandler, Michael, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash went over to the bar.

“Alright,” said Hunter, “What do you guys recommend around here?”

“Who cares!” said Chandler, “Anything I drink will eventually fuck me up!”

Twilight said in worry, “Please tell me you’re not going to…”

“Waiter!!” said Chandler, “Give me one of everything!!”

Everypony in the bar threw their hooves up in the air and cheered for chandler. The crowd came to life as they applauded Chandler for going all out!

Michael rolled his eyes and went back to talking with Fluttershy, “Sorry about Chandler.” he said, “He’s a bit.. explosive at times.”

“Oh don’t worry,” said Fluttershy, “Honestly, it’s not bother. In fact..” Fluttershy hopped on the table, “Waiter!! I’ll have one of everything too! If that’s okay with you.”

The crows began to cheer once more. Everyone from the grow starred with their chins nearly touching the ground.

Hunter shook his head in amazement, “Fluttershy, are you sure?” he said

Rainbow Dash lifted Fluttershy up into the air, “Woohoo Fluttershy!!” she said right before she began to cheer for Fluttershy with three Hip-Hip-Hoorays accompanied by the crowd of ponies.

Seth, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Taylor and Rarity went over to the Dance floor. They started to get with the crowd and dance for a while, no matter how awkward it was.

“So tell me Taylor,” said Rarity, “You’ve been to places like this before with other girls?”

“Nope. Can’t say I have” said Taylor, “I didn’t really like going to places back then. I wasn’t really social when I was little. Kind of the way it had to be where I came from. You know, where I was raised.”

“Where DID you come from?” said Rarity

“It’s kind of a long story.” said Taylor

“I’ve got time,” said Rarity as she got closer to Taylor,

“I,” Taylor began to stutter, “I don’t like to talk about it,” a single tear began to bead down his face

“Awww It’s Okay,” Rarity escorted Taylor off the dance floor to console him.

Pinkie Pie started a conga line and Seth and Applejack went along. It wasn’t long before the rest of the of the dance floor was nothing but a single conga line of 80 something ponies.

Meanwhile, Brandon went over to a table near the bar as a massive headache began to tear through his skull.

The Raz appeared next to him, “What’s up bub?”

“Fuck I’ve got a splitting headache!” said Brandon

“Yeah, It’s your brain trying to piece together memories of you and your sister.” said Raz

“That explains a lot,” said Brandon as he grunted from the pain

“Alright so I’ve got a question?” said Raz, “What up with you and Applejack?”

“What the fuck are you talking about?” said Brandon

“Well you know” said Raz

“No.” said Brandon, “No Raz I don’t know.”

“You know.” said Raz “When you first got to Equestria you were all over her.”

“Yeah but it wasn’t anything serious. We talked, had fun” said Brandon

“Yeah but it didn’t go any further than that,” said Raz

“Raz I’m not going to ask her out okay?” said Brandon

“Why not?” Raz responded

“Because” Brandon said, “Just no!”

“Oh I see,” said Raz as he began to understand, “You’re afraid of commitment.”

“Fuck you!” Brandon exclaimed

A voice called out from beside them, “Well aren’t you loud!” A purplish pink pegasus stepped towards them. She had long fuzzy black hair with a single yellow streak going down it. Her cutie mark appeared to be a heart with an arrow through it.

“Hey there,” she said,

“Well hello there,” said Raz, “I’m of no importance here. This however is my buddy Brandon. Say ‘hi’ faggot.”

“Shut up” said Brandon, “Hey. I’m Brandon.”

“I’m Dark Love,” said the pegasus, “You can call me Darky”

“You on the uhhh,” said the Raz, “You know the uhhhh…”

“…Girls for hire?” Darky said as she laughed a little, “Yes. Yes I am,”

“Yeah I’ve heard about you,” said Raz

“How do you keep up with this shit?” said Brandon,

“I’ve been places kid. I had to keep my eyes on several pony’s before you showed up.” said Raz

Brandon looked at Darky in confusion, “And you! First Question: Why are you here? Second Question: Are you not freaked out by the weird Dark Matter pony right in front of you?”

“I’ll start by answering the second question,” said Darky, “Listen Hun, I’ve seen plenty of things around here. Seeing your little friend, doesn’t bother me. As for the first question. Well I couldn’t help but overhear your little conversation.”

“It’s not nice to eaves drop” said Brandon

“And I’m supposed to be nice? Yeah right! Did you really expect kindness out of me” said Darky

“Looks like the Whore out schooled you kid,” said the Raz ,”No offense madam”

“None taken,” said Darky, “Now what’s this I hear about this guy not liking commitment.”

“Both of you,” said Brandon, “Fuck off!”

“Look at you. So immature you’re making up words.” said Darky as she chuckled

“It’s not made up,” said Raz, “It’s normal from where this guy’s from.”

“And exactly where is that?” said Darky with a smirk on her face

“Can we fucking change the subject please!” Brandon cried in frustration

Darky looked at Brandon in amazement. She knew he was different.She could tell a lot from a pony. Who they are, what they’ve seen, where they’ve been. Simply by listening to the way Brandon talked, she could tell that he’s had a complicated past. She didn’t tell him though, she enjoyed watching him go on, annoyed at the world for just existing as a headache pounded through his skull.

“Awww. Come on Hun,” she said, “Cheer up”

“Kind of hard to do that with this headache!” said Brandon as he put his hooves on his head to suppress the pain

Darky smiled and looked over to the bar tender, “Hey Wonder! this guy over here a Moonlight Cocktail. On me”

The pony called out from a far, “Yeah and how much do you plan on paying for THIS one. You’re not getting one this time Darky!”

“Oh that’s a shame,” said Darky, “I’d hate to tell your boss that you’ve been stealing from this establishment.”

The pony growled, “Fine!” he said as he put down one of the glasses he was cleaning.

“Damn!” said Brandon, slowly recovering from the headache which had miraculously disappeared, “You’re good.”

“You learn over the years,” said Darky

Brandon began to stir up a conversation and the Raz disappeared to leave Brandon alone for a bit. The two talked for a while and relaxed at the table for a while.

When it was time to leave, Brandon met up with the group at the front of the club accompanied by Darky.

“Alright,” said Darky, “We ready to go?”

Everyone looked in infusion at Darky. Seeing as they never met her before. Hunter walked up, “Uhhhh What?” he said

“Guys,” said Brandon, “This is Darky. She’ll be coming with us.”

“Why” said Michael

“I know the ins and outs of every club, bar, and joint in Equestria. You’ll be needing me sooner or later if you plan on pulling this bar crawl tonight.” said Darky

Brandon looked at her and nodded then looked back at the group, “You head her!”

“I’m not sure bro,” said Rainbow Dash, “Inviting a complete stranger to tag along..”

“I’m standing right you know,” said Darky

“Guys come on. Just a week ago we were strangers not only to each other, but to this whole fucking world.” said Brandon, “I don’t see how this is a problem

Darky looked at Brandon in confusion, unaware of what he meant by “Other World”

“You gotta admit,” said Taylor, “He’s got a point. And I don’t mind. I knew that we were most likely going to meet some ponies tonight.”

Pinkie Pie jumped up “You know what they say, the more the merrier!!” she said

Everypony looked and agreed with each other. Once again Hunter stepped up, “Well Darky,” he said, “Welcome to the Party.”

The group walked out of the club and into the street, prepared to take on a night of adventure.
