The Past Is Faster Then Progress
Chapter 2
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"We should get out of here." Gunhoof broke the silence, I put way my pistol a while ago in my belt "well let go met my friend." I shrugged, mostly surprised Gunhoof made other friends. He led us to sugercube corner by the bar is Berry Punch, drunk, Gunhoof hit her in the back "oh get up Berry. Lyra and Bon Bon are here!" That got her up. A odd hug was dispensed to me, Lyra, and a random passing pony only to get in to a bar fight with the stallion chaining every drunk in the bar on others. I pulled Berry out of there, Berry tried all she could to get back in the bar but I kept tight hold on her tail (even if it did tast like rubber, cider, and plot) and dragged her back to the apartment. When Lyra and Gunhoof came back Gunhoof looked unhurt from his armor but Lyra looked as if she was a Uras Minor's new chew toy, I ran to her useing my body to keep her up. I walked her to her bedroom, wrapped the wounds that wouldn't go away, or at lest scab up, in a days rest, and I trotted off to bed, not before laughing at Gunhoof laying on the sofa very still to not effect the drunk purple mare laying on him. I drifted off to sleep leaveing the day filled with assassins and drunks for a nice, Lyra filled, dream land...
I was awoken by Berry busting in my room at 7:34 with her shotgun at the ready. Gunhoof was following behind her, looking shameful, with his sniper rifle. "Hey Bon Bon wake up we gotta do stuff!" Berry was yelling in to my ear.
Pushing her away I whent in to the bathroom and brushed my mane back in to its normal form, not before snarling at it, I hated I couldn't get it in to a strait mane type like Derpy I hate my mane. I trotted in to the kitchen, first thing to happen is I was suddenly getting pulled to the sofa there was magic griping my hooves pulling me, the magic held me tell I sat down in my normal way. A plate of apple pancakes was floated to me. I saw the lovely cyan mare follow behind it "well Bon Bon you always make food for me so today I made breakfast, eat up!" She was smiling but in the kind of way where they seem to eager.
"So Lyra what did you do with the food?" I asked quizzically, that only got a chuckle from her, with a defeated sigh I start eating. It was really good! If I didn't know Lyra made it i would be thinking about when I made something like this because it tastes on par with my cooking. After scarfing it down I sat up, my face very serious (at lest as serious as you can get looking in to the eyes of the one who I loved for a long time) "Lyra you need a gun." I finally said.
She was shaking her head quickly "Bon Bon, no just... No! I don't want to be shooting..."
"Lyra it's shoot or get shot now, look you don't need any thing big just something to shoot." I said not wavering.
She finally gave in, she was thinking for a moment in tell Berry walked in to the room tossing Lyra a small SMG "there ya' go Lyra you now own a skorpion!" Berry explained as Lyra griped the skorpion in her magic, she's slipped it in her saddlebag. With that we all started packing up, I looked at my odd pistol I found it in my saddle bag out of no where one day I'd adventuring with Gunhoof and it been my prime weapon everyday after, it's not as strong as something like a M4 would be but it's a nice pistol.
We left ponyville heading north, the everfree forest was south so that one reson we where heading north, the other reson is there are tons of groups of petty bandits north, it seemed I was picking off the where I left I was hunting bandits again.
After a long time of walking we saw a group of men in some scraped together armor, I grabbed my pistol, Gunhoof got in to a good sniper position, Berry got her shotgun ready to start shooting with out a care in the world, but Lyra pushes down my pistol whispering to is "what if there not bandits?"
I rolled my eyes and stood up ignoring Lyra's pleads for me to get back down and I trotted over to the group of five ponies "hey guys I was just wondering what brings you here!" I called to them, my jacket covering my gun, the five stallions graped there guns, most of them had pistols but one had a griffin dear hunting rifle, they opened fire on me makeing me dive for cover back where I was before, turning to Lyra I said "well there welcoming commety is very rude..." I leaned out of cover sending two shots in to a rust colored unicorn wielding what looks like a 9mm, the rust-unicorn fell not dead but not able to keep shooting, that made Berry jump cover her rock cover sending two shots (one press of the trigger) from her duble berral shotgun in to the wounded unicorn, Berry ran for cover behind a tent. With two shots from Gunhoof sniper two ponies where dead, Lyra sprayed her skorpion on the last livening pony. I gathered what I could from the camp sight and from the ponies, I got more ammo from the 9mm, Mm pistol takes 9mm ammo and I also took the griffin dear hunting rifle.
