My Little Kaiju: Ponies Are Weird
Thunder and Poison
Previous ChapterNext ChapterCutting Edge deftly sliced through the fruit before tossing both halves into the air and impaling the larger one with his knife. The smaller half was swallowed whole as it came down. Cutting Edge had found out that even without his horn he was still an expert in cutting things. Truth be told Cutting enjoyed life as a pony more than as a kaiju. Not only was their life expectancy longer than ten years, he was also free of the silly war that the Precursors were waging. It saddened him to think of how many humans had died, surely by now the planet was conquered. The humans had been resourceful and honorable opponents and many kaiju wondered why the Precursors did not propose an alliance instead of losing kaiju faster than ever before. Whether it was pride or stupidity, Cutting knew that in Ponyville he was safe from the war. Cutting sighed and went over to the mirror while chewing up the apple on his knife. He had gotten a nice suit made from amethyst shards that had been mined by Spike. Cutting was going to go with a flesh suit until Spike reminded him that ponies would find that revolting and that flesh suits were dead and not alive. It had been about a week since the second Spike incident and throughout that time Cutting had been trying to get Rarity to date him. What happened whenever he met her was that he'd start stuttering like a moron and change subjects as fast as possible. It had gotten to the point where he almost wanted Spike to grow again so that he could tell Rarity again.
"Come on this time I will tell her" Cutting said to himself. He took a deep breath and opened the door. The sun was setting and Luna was raising her night. Before he could move two steps he heard a loud roar from the Everfree Forest. "Or maybe I'll just suit up and take on a dragon" he muttered angrily. Cutting stomped back into his rental home, took off his suit, and put on the guard armor he had been given. Twilight had pulled some strings and now he was a ranger protecting Ponyville from monsters. The pay was not that good but it provided an outlet for the kaiju urges that were still in his brain. It made him shudder to think that one day he might revert to his programming and eat a pony. The silver armor marked him as a minor but he was quickly climbing the ranks into becoming an officer. It had gauntlets to cover his lower leg while leaving the upper leg exposed for movement. The chest plate curved around, protecting his back and shoulders as well. The final piece was the helmet, a large plate to cover the head and back of the neck with a mask to cover his face but leave his eyes open. Cutting Edge grabbed about ten knives, scalpels, and punch blades and strapped them to his body before opening the door and rushing towards the Everfree Forest.
Otachi shrieked as she flapped her arms, briefly forgetting she didn't have wings anymore. The dragon that was chasing them had green scales with a yellow eye. The other eye was bloodshot from when she had stepped in it. Leatherback buzzed his wings and didn't really fly so much as super hop. A whip from the drake's tail sent them both sprawling and stopped their frantic run. They hugged each other in terror as the dragon got closer, drool dripping from it's maw. They had only been reincarnated for five minutes and they were going to die again. The dragon then left them alone and stood up growling. Otachi and Leatherback turned to see who had gotten the dragon's attention. A yellow pony with at least eight daggers strapped to him and imposing armor that made him look far bigger than he really was.
"Go now Futs Lung before I shank you like I did to Ladon" the yellow pony growled and for a second, Otachi and Leatherback were wondering if they should take their chances with Futs Lung or the pony. The dragon snorted in response and turned it's back to walk away. That was when Leatherback did something monumentally stupid.
"Hey, asinus! Come get me you scared lizard!" he yelled before tapping into his pegasi magic and blasting the dragon with a lightning bolt. Their savior looked like he was about to shank them when the dragon charged back with a vengeance and pinned him to the ground. Leatherback continued blasting the dragon only for it to flare its wings and knock him away like a fly. Otachi tried to upchuck acid and expected nothing to happen. What did happen was her horn glowing cyan and spraying acid at the dragon's face. The dragon howled with pain and fell to the ground, screeching in agony. The yellow pony kicked free and tossed down a flare before stomping over to Otachi. Otachi got her expectations turned again when he pulled out his blade and shoved it up her nose just hard enough to draw blood.
"What the hell was that?! We could have gotten away with no one getting hurt but your tool of a friend was too stupid wasn't he? Now the dragon clans are going to have our ass unless you convince them to spare you" the ranger roared in her face before pulling the knife away.
"But I saved you" Otachi managed to sputter. Why was he so pissed off?
"I could have gotten out myself and look what you did to him. There's a reason why acid attacks are banned you violent prick" the pony said, pulling out a med kit and putting some liquid over the acid still on the dragon's face. Otachi was indeed horrified with what the acid had done. The dragon looked like one of the killers from Belobog's private collection(nightmare on friday the thirteenth was the name she thought) with his face scarred and disfigured. "I'll take you back to HQ and we'll process and handle you two" the ranger grunted while pointing at a small squad of other ponies with similar armor albeit orange in their case. As the two reincarnated kaiju were led away, Cutting Edge could not help but feel deja vu. They not only smelt familiar they also looked similar but to what? In a split second he realized who they were after looking at the color of the acid. If Otachi and Leatherback had become ponies then he head plans to make them better ponies.
