Chapter 1

It was a bright sunny day in Ponyville when me, Bon Bon the baker, got the mail. From frist glance it seem only of Lyra's mail, letters from noble trying to get her to come back to canterlot, even though Lyra is a noble she prefers living with me in a apartment where we pay half rent each. i really don't under stand why but i don't care to much mostly because I have a slight crush on her. Ok maybe is a bit more then slight but still, when I gave mail to Lyra she looked through threw away all the messages that are sent from canterlot, payed some bills (we both did) then she found a letter say just one name, Gunhoof, Lyra handed the mail, and when I saw it I ripped it open as fast as possible. What it said in side was just two things, a time and a place, sugercube corner 8:20, the time was 8:18 so I ran out the door yelling back "bye Lyra I got some one to met!" I slung my jacket on to cover the belt and pistol I had on, as I always do.

When I got to sugercube corner I checked the clock, 8:21 I looked around for the stallion, only not drunk pony there was a pony with little to no coat, armor that almost looks like its holding him together, and a mask covering his face. He didn't seem to have a mane but there was bunt up bit of his tail, purple with a yellow line in it, I knew it was Gunhoof once I saw him, I ran over starting in surprise "hey Bon Bon." he says in a slick voice.

"Uh h...hey Gunhoof... Long time no see." I stutter because well he will explain why.

"Ya haven't seen you sense we where fillies and colts, you know when you left to to burn in the fire." he laughs "looks like I am still going." he breaks out laughing again.

I looked down sadly "I...I left you to burn..." I start to sniffle holding back tears.

He noticed it quickly and said "ya you did to save that town, it was ether you died trying to save me or you save the town and live, in any case I lived." He pats me on the head "why don't we talk about what we did after the fire." he suggested.

I nod softly "after I saved the town I stopped being 'the bringer of hope' and well came here in ponyville, no one knew I was a hero so I was able to get a apartment and start making candy to sell, it was hard work as a filly but as I grew I made friends and life got better, I live in a apartment with my friend Lyra." I smiled thinking about the pretty good life I have

He rose a eyebrow (what was little left of them that is) "is Lyra a mare?" He seemed pretty serious.

Not under standing the reson of the question I just simply said "yep!"

He jumped up "ah ha! I thought so! I saw your face when you talked about Lyra, you like her don't you!?"

I was surprised the he was able to figure out just from my face "I... Um... Lies! You are total wrong!" I felt my self blushing

He shook his head slightly, even behind the mask I could tell he was smiling "tsk tsk tsk, by the raise of voice, word choice, the blushing, and stuttering you are lying very much!"  he coughed a bit "can I met your fillyfriend?"

I blushed and hit him in the back of the head "ok I like her but we are not dating!" I looked away and said "but we can go see her..."

He started laughing and followed me out of sugercube corner, it became a place for drunks when Applejack started selling strong alcoholic cider there, when we got to me and Lyra's apartment he was shocked "you live in a apartment?" His slick voice rang out from the mask

"Yep, me and Lyra pay rent for it together." I thought about how me and Lyra came to live in one apartment, I was limping in to ponyville very injured, Lyra found me. Even though we where fillies at the time she had a job and have been paying rent, she ran away from home in canterlot hating the noble life and played her lyre here in ponyville for bits, I made a candy shop and we payed for rent growing up together. Gunhoof noticed my deep thinking and decided to snap me out of

"Damn Lyra your one sexy girl!" I snapped up looking around for Lyra but it was him joking, he was saying it to the closed door. Hit him in The back of the head and walked in side, Gunhoof followed behind.

"Oh Bon Bon your back!" Lyra turned see me but her eye where dead set on looking at the undead looking stallion next to me "h..hi, um I am guessing your Bon Bon's friend she left to go and s...see." Lyra extended her hoof to the hairless stallion in front of her he shook it

"So your Lyra, Bon Bon told me about you. I am Gunhoof a foal hood friend of Bon Bon's." Lyra winced at the flesh feeling of the hoof shake

"Well if you know about Bon Bon's past I would love to hear she doesn't tell me much about it, mostly due to my rants about my life and my human rants..." Lyra rubs the back of her head chuckling

"I'll make some tea, Gunhoof you can tell Lyra about my past just leave any... 'Hope' things about of it." Gunhoof nodded knowing what I meant and started to talk to Lyra about my past as I walked In to the kitchen and started to make tea. When I finished the tea I put the three cups down and I took a seat next to Lyra making Gunhoof chuckle

"Hey Bon Bon could you get some sugar for the tea?" Gunhoof asked so I got it. In the kitchen I realized he wanted me to be out of earshot so I listened close to the door and I hear Gunhoof whisper "when Bon Bon was a filly I found put she was in to m..." I heard him. Kicking open the door with my hind legs (breaking the the hinges) and I hit Gunhoof over the head with the metal sugar pot "ow! Dang Bon Bon you are strong!"

"And you are a rat!" I yelled at him putting the sugar pot on the table

"I want going to tell Lyra any thing like you think!" He rubbed the place i hit him, I snorted

"So what where you going to say!" I retorted

"That you where in to mare baby toys as a filly!" That made me hit him again with the pot

"Thats just as bad! Embarrassing!" He rubbed his new found head lump. Lyra just sat there looking shocked siting in her bipedal  siting way. But then a bullet flew though the window, a pegusis was fire in to our apartment after all its in the top floor. I grabbed my pistol out of my belt firing three shots in to the attackers neck watching him drop, Lyra was looking back and forth between my gun and where the attacker was surprised by the skill of the gun shooting and the fact I even have a pistol. I saw the attackers bullet glazed Gunhoof's front right leg, I grabbed some bandages and warped the wound

Lyra snapped out of her shocked state and stood up "ok... What the buck is going on guys! I want to know now!" she looked scared and frustrated

Gunhoof gave me a nod making me explain it "ok Lyra a long time ago before I became Bon Bon the baker I was Bon Bon the bringer of hope traveling with Gunhoof the bringer of light we hunted slavers, bandits, and even demons. We were hunting a demon in a forest when it lit the hole forest the fire spread to the town and got Gunhoof I could ether try and save Gunhoof or help the town, I helped the town, once they found out Gunhoof was down for the count the large crime groups and large demon cults came after me..."

Lyra looked scared, anger, sad, and what made my heart wrench because it was all directed me "Bon Bon why didn't you tell me about your past? I could help in some way, I am a noble I have allies..."

I shook my head "Lyra I didn't tell you to save me from my past, in fact now that I told you... Your going to be hunted to" she looked shocked but I pulled out my pistol "don't you worry I won't let any one take you down!"

Chapter 2

"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.

Chapter 3

When we where done picking the camp clean it was dark. i got up and moved to the campfire, i got somethings out of my saddle bag and i got to work on diner, every one seem really tired well Lyra wasn't she was to busy freaking out (like yay freak out not like the i just saw a man die freak out) out how she was shot "I WAS ALL LIKE BOOM BOOM BOOM WITH THE UZI!"

"its a Skorpion... not a Uzi..." Berry corrected taking another swig of her cider. i was just surprised she wasn't to drunk to correct Lyra, "in any case." Berry started "i think we should head to bed right after we eat." i was completely shocked she could even be that... sane i mean shes Berry i know her a crazy drunk not... this kind-of-ish-leader-drunk-mare but in any case i finished making the daisy-daffodil soup and out it on the block wood we where using as a table and i filled up the four bowls.

i trotted to my tent, relaxing in my tent i started to drift off to sleep. that was in tell i was awaken by the flap of my tent being opened, my eyes shot open and i saw a purple mare walk in to my tent holding a bottle a cider in her mouth, she dropped the cider and walked over to me in the dark "hey... Gunhoof... you awake?..."

I looked up at Berry "uhh Berry what are you doing in my tent?..." she reeled back dashing out of my tent i chuckled wait was she looking for Gunhoof's tent?... wait are they together?... my mind spun with many questions that i will be asking them, i chuckled and slipped back in to my sleep...

when i woke up the first thing i did was grab Berry and Gunhoof and i dragged them to my tent "Bon Bon what are you doing? don't you need to make breakfast?" Gunhoof said almost almost pleadingly.

"Gunhoof i want to know whats going on between you two?" Berry blushed lightly and put her head down.

"there is nothing between me and Berry going on..." he seemed to be a bit shameful with his head held down, both of them are just siting there with there head down.

"that's not how you would be acting if nothing was going on, in any case Berry came to my tent when trying to find yours." i said staring in to his masks eye visors.

Berry finally lifted her head "OK yes there are something going on between us..." Gunhoof tried to cut in but Berry waved him off "we met a long time ago, for as long as i knew him he was in that armor and still it was him that shined though not the armor... we  been together for a while now..." i chuckled and stood up.

"that's not something you should be ashamed of love is well... love so as long as you really love each other then you should be very happy love is something you cant let go in this world..." i went to leave but Gunhoof taped my back i turned to him "ya?"

"well... i want you to do something for me... get Lyra, make her your love that is if you truly do care about her." i nodded and trotted out of the tent i got to work right away on making breakfast, it was going to be some simple hay fries because i didn't have much to work with.

after eating we left camp, i was walking behind Lyra as Gunhoof and Berry walked with each other, Gunhoof sped up a bit and gave me a little push, it moved me next to Lyra "oh hey Lyra, Gunhoof is being annoying..."

"oh hey Bon Bon, ya i noticed Gunhoof been acting odd mostly like talking with Berry a lot more. any way where are we going?" i thought for a second and brought out my map pointing to the next town we are coming up to "so where are going to dodge junction?" i nodded and walked silently next to Lyra in tell a shadow of the town was see able. we trotted in to town and the first thing that happened was a gun, a pistol was pressed to my temple.

"who are ya'll and what ya' doin' 'round here?" the tan stallion wearing the cowcolt waited for a answer, i was to shocked to answer at the time, when the cowcolt didn't get his answer right way he pressed it harder on my head "ah' said, who are ya'll and what ya' doin' 'round here?"

i shook my head to get my forces of what was going on "oh um, i am Bon Bon The Bringer Of Hope, i travel with Gunhoof Bringer Of Light, Berry Punch, and Lyra. we came to help the corruption and banditry die down." the cowcolt lowered his pistol.

"wait w'at?" he said shocked "ya'll bringers didn't die?"

"well you could say i died..." Gunhoof nodded to him self, that got a chuckle from the cowcolt.

"well ya'll are welcome here!" the cowcolt trotted away leavening us to wonder around town. we walked around for a bit but i headed for ammo and weapon stores. after buying some ammo we found a hotel to plan what to do next. we decided to go and take some bandits out around the town. corruption in the town is to big to really do anything in tell we have some really have some influence in the town. if we got many people to help us we could over throw the the messed up government, the guards around here are just as messed up as the bandits are, but like i said before there to strong for us at the time...

Chapter 4

Corruption, that is the best word to explain doge junction. Here are a few reasons I say this, ever corner you look there somepony all shady most likely waiting to get hired to kill somepony then use most of the cash to bribe off a guard, there are foals running around stealing stuff for there parents and every house and shop looks like a Uras Major chewed it up, spit it out, and took a dump on it, little to say its a clestia-awefull place to be in no matter what kind of pony you are (and I don't mean by race) not to mention the large amount of 'night women' as I would say (Berry find much enjoy meant, much to Gunhoof's dismay, calling them dirty hussies) "so how are we going to root out the good from the bad?" I asked the group with me at the table.

"Well from what I know of this town, I say just kill every one.  More then likely every one did something bad at one point." Gunhoof said like it was nothing giving a little hoof wave, easily getting a thump on the back of the head from Berry.

"They most likely did but every one has done something bad at one point and the good in this town deserves more then either death or corruption." i said stated very seriously.

Lyra looked up happily "ideaaaaaa!" She yelled and added "you know how ever pony here has some kind of gun or weapon?" Lyra asked not giving us any time to say any thing "well I found out, from a pretty shady guy, that the mayor here got speakers every where due to so many lockdowns so we just go in the mayor's place, get on the speaker thing, fight any guards trying to stop us, say stuff to make the good in the town to fight the corruption and there you go!" Lyra puffed put her chest very proudly.

"That could work." Gunhoof said before adding "but what would we say?" Lyra seemed to deflate.

I was sitting there thinking as hard as I can search my mind for the right words to inspire a small war. But then it came to mind, it might be a long speech but... "I got it!" I yelled as jumped up, ever one looked at me with shock.

"Well what is the speech?" Berry asked and taking a sip of cider.

"You will find out when I tell it to the town but there are some things we need to do!" I said before running out, the others following swiftly behind as we ran I explained how before we can root out any corruption they needed to strike down the already known bandit groups, I promised to my self that I will make this town better. After all my birth town couldn't be that bad right?

We where walking around the towns alleyways for any large groups of gun toting ponies, we all split up after a while and I found my self walking down a dark alleyway, a ruff voice emerged from the shadows "oh... This is not place for a sweet mare like your self to be" the stallion chuckled as he walked out of the shadows with many others, some holding blunt weapons like base ball bats and others holding guns or knives, I quickly whipped out my Griffin Hunting Rifle and aimed ready to fire if they tried any thing.

"Do any thing dumb like attack me and I will fire!" I said making sure my rifle was aimed at one of the sleaze balls head.

"Oh I am soooo scared, you out matched girly give up and maby we won't rape you to hard" the leader like bandit said sounding very bored but the idea of them doing... That! Was vey scary.

"Oh that's it you buckers made a bad choice!" A voice said, it wasn't mine it was... Lyra leaped over me sliding to stay up, her SMG griped in a magic aura. She fired wildly targeting ever pony that was in front of her, the battle was in her favor in tell a bullet hit her chest, she dropped her magic falling, pissed now I griped my rifle tight quickly fire bullet after bullet in to there sculls watching them drop fast. I looked down to see Lyra pull out the bullet with her magic and wrap the wound.

I picked up Lyra on my back ignoring her telling me she's fine and can walk. When we met up with the others I ordered Berry to take Lyra to the hospital and handed her some bits to pay for the medical treatment and I got to work on thinking of the speech as Gunhoof left to hunt down more bandits, I got to work on what I was going to say and it quickly came in to mind.

I met up with the others and we headed for the shops, we pay a lot of money of armor but now we looked pretty awesome and more protected, Gunhoof didn't buy armor due to having the armor holding him together, Berry had some simple leather armor, I got some thick padding on my jacket to protect me more, and Lyra go some scraped together metal armor that seem to be very good. We then for to armor store headed to the town hall, we made sure out funs where loaded and we where ready.

A guard stopped us from going in "halt! No pony is allowed in to town hall unless you are some kind of noble!" The guard said then turned to the guard next to him and nodded, they look out there shotguns ready to put up a fight If we try any thing, I nodded to Gunhoof and he galloped to a abandoned looking building and got his way to the roof, Lyra and Berry distracted the guards as  slipped next to the one on the right putting my pistol to his head, when I fired Gunhoof shot the guard on the left. We had most of this worked out Berry ran in the building jumping behind a filing cabinet for cover up close so her shotgun is useful and she opened fire at the guards, Lyra ran in next getting in cover behind a door spraying bullets at the guards helping Berry fight off the guards, I ran in firing my rifle as I ran for cover behind a cubical wall, and I heard Gunhoof change place to shoot threw a new window at the guards with his sniper.

After a while of fighting we reached the last stop before the office, the door of the office, it was guarded by two earth ponies in heavy heavy looking armor. They looked like walking metal chunk and on there back was a some kind of twin berral metal thing, I couldn't really tell, I looked at there armor in my hiding spot. The only weak spot seemed to be the helmet, I pulled out my pistol and ran next to one fire three shots  in to his he's the first one failed to get threw but the other two shoots ripped in to his head, I took cover behind the dead lump of metal I just killed as the other one turned to me biting on a string sending many bullets from the twin berral gun. Due to the heavy amount of gun fire I was pinned down, Lyra and Berry aren't understanding that the head is the weakness and they are firing at his chest, he started to turn to them but I couldn't let him kill them so I reloaded my pistol and jumped in to the spray of bullets, I felt the bullets rip threw my body and the warn stickyness of my blood running in my fur but I tackled the lump of bullet spraying metal and I unloaded my clip in his head to make sure he died, as I felt the stallion I shot die my eyes closed then... Darkness...

Chapter 5

Darkness was all I could see I felt heavy but I stood up, it looked like I was in a void or something. But I wasn't alone in the darkness a voice rang out "do you have the power to defend the ones you care about, the ones you love?" The voice sounded like it was making fun of me soon after a very grumpy moon princess came out of the darkness with a purple alicorn who looks far to happy looking around this place and a... Thing that looks like a thrown together pony but then I knew who the three was, Princess Luna, Princess Twilight, and Discord I am pretty sure Discord was the one who said that because he teleported next to me "I can give you power to protect them all. With this power you can protect everypony!" After he said that Luna floated him back over by her but my mind was flooded thinking about if this is a good idea after all but also about saving everypony.

"What's the power you offer and what do I need to give you for it?" I asked mostly because two princesses wouldn't let discord do any thing evil to me... Right?

Discord let out a chuckle "oh no no, the crazy stuff you do already is fine payment just don't get your self brutally murdered again ok? I am not allowed to bring you to life again." I nodded "so you taking the power? It will give you a form of magic even with out a horn!" I nodded again and twilight stepped up

"This place is awesome, magic is so cool! Of ya I need to give you your powers" she focused and soon her horn was glowing blindingly bright and she taped my head with it and I felt a blast of magic flow in to me and slowly.... My eyes opened, there was a rush of noise the sound of crying and mutters of thing to cheer somepony up. I weakly lifted my head to see Gunhoof and Berry try and comfort Lyra who was crying!

"It my faults she died! She was filled with bullets to save me! It's all my fault" she cried out. I swiftly stood up wincing at the  burning pain and trotted over to her.

"I did get shot to save you Lyra but no way would I die on you" I felt a hug grip around me and Lyra was crying in to my coat, after a while she calmed down and I explained what happened in the death world and that I most likely have some kind of magic in me.

Gunhoof looked at me crazy "you made a deal... With bucking Discord!?" He yelled but just as he said that there was a puff of fire and standing there was a pure white demon mare with spiked hair.

Demon snapped "hello, my name is Kat and not with a C it's with a K, Lord Discord sent me. A new part of the deal is I have to travel with you" Kat said, she had very dull gray lines on her but that really doesn't matter what is important is the death glare Kat was getting form Gunhoof she reacted in a... odd way "hey there metal, you checking me out?" the demon said to Gunhoof but he just snorted and turned away where Berry was trying to calm him down.

"i am not going to be walk around with a bucking demon!" Gunhood yelled whipping out a switch blade and was threatening the demon, i walked over to him and hit him over the head with my hoof "are you defending this demon!?" he yelled rubbing his head

"Yes, not only because Kat could be good but because there is two things I don't go back on, deals, and promises. If you have a big deal with that you can leave but I am not giving up on being a Bringer from a bucking demon would is hitching a ride from a deal. Now if you want to go butthurt mode on me then do so but I am not, I repeat am not going to give up from a deal!" I yelled, I am pretty sure that got to him because he just sighed from behind his mask and turned his head away.

I was almost unable to her Gunhoof mumble "buck you and your mind changing speeches you can pull from your flank..." He mumble flank like it was poison, I am kind,of worried about him...

I turned to the awaiting mic and trotted over adjusting it to fit me better I taped it and the taps rang out all across the town, everything was ready now I need to do is talk "hello everypony... My name is Bon Bon The Bringer Of Hope, me and my allies would like to say that we are here to fight this corruption in this town you all know and love, Dodge Junction. Now  if you need me to give you some reasons why you should unholster your guns at the bandits and other evils of this town then he is a very good reason. Love, if you want to protect the ones you care about and love then you must fight for a better town, for a better you, if you wish to join me wear yellow and grab your weapons FIGHT FOR THE GOOD OF THE TOWN AND THE PONIES IN IT!" I said in to the microphone and I threw on my gear taking my guns I rushed out, it didn't take long for the town to become a battle field. A bullet wized me as I threw my Griffin Hunt Rifle ready fireing at the ponies with guns not wearing any thing yellow, I picked yellow : it's the color of hope to me and I wrapped golden yellow cloth on my front right hoof one things for sure, It's war time.

Chapter 6

KAW KAW   KABOOM KABOOM  TETETETETELEL  FLUMP FLUMP  CHEK-CACHEK-BOOM Everypony was firing at the corruption loyalist, well most shooting, Kat was sending fire balls. In any case ran in to a alleyway to escape some fire, Lyra followed quickly behind I was about to run out back in to the fight but then I heard... KA BING KA BING KA CHUL "AAAAAHKaaa..." I quickly turned to see Lyra hit the ground! Blood was streaming from her neck, three things flowed in to my mind, oh fuck sniper, Lyra, and oh shit oh shit. I went with the first two and I grabbed Lyra bringing her behind a dumpster I couldn't help but cry, I could feel her life draining from her. In a flash of rage and sadness I pressed my front left hoof to Lyra's wound and focused, feeling the new magic in me bubble up my leg up to my knee joint started to glow and turn to a small ball of light, the ball entered the wound sealing the shot hole, and slowly... I felt Lyra's life slowly come back as the blood on her seemed to disappear. My tears quickly dried and I hugged Lyra as she slowly woke up, I had no more tears to cry... "Uhh... Bonny, what happened?" She asked me, I never heard her call me Bonny before but I ignored it and just kept hugging, that is intel Lyra noticed my front left leg being a stump "oh my! Bonny are you ok!?" She asked full of worry as I just nodded as I tried to get up but I would just hit face first in the dirt, Lyra helped me up using her body to support me as we walked to the others.

"Bon Bon! What happened to your leg!?" Yelled Gunhoof as he sniped another pony.

"Well remember that magic I told you about? Lyra was almost dead so some how turned my leg in to a form of healing spell." I said it like it was nothing as Berry quickly walked to me using a thick stick to work as a makeshift leg intel we get something better tie it on with my gold-yellow cloth. Intel I get something better then wood and cloth I can only really shoot my pistol unless I have some kind of place to mount up my rifle but I am fine with what I am doing now, I took out my pistol and charged (fast waddled) in to combat pistol firing very soon the battle comes to a end... It's over... We did it! Now Dodge Junction is free from corruption so it's now time for my last few thing so do. I gathered everypony to the town hall where I looked down at the sea of yellow.

"Frist of all,thank all of you for fighting with us. This town is good as long as you, the ponies who live here, make sure it stays that way, but now i have so thing new for everypony, I would like plenty of ponies to join me on my mission, to be a army of cleansing. Any pony with me wear yellow out side of the town in five hours!" I yelled so everypony can hear before walking off as the group spread out many ways.

I headed in to town and we fixed up our armor, got tons more food and ammo, and got a arm replacement, it's pretty much a short metal pole with a hook at the end to let me shoot but also let me walk normally. We headed out of the town with the stuff we bought and the free stuff ponies gave us, there where like... 20 ponies joining us and there was no way I am going to be able to remember everypony's name...

We have been moving for a while now, the next place I was going to was Canterlot, we needed to swing by there because I wanted to request new guards to be put in to Dodge Junction. It will be a hard travel, I mean even convincing those selfish political bastards to do stuff will be bucking harder then getting to the damn place! In any case it became dark so we camped down, now the camps as two groups. Me, Lyra, and Gunhoof in the general camp sight and the solider camp sight has the 20  or so ponies in it, over with the solider there having a good time drinking  and everything while I had some training I wanted to do "hey Kat you told me you use magic and a sword right? Well I want to learn how to use the magic I was given also I would like to learn to use a blade" Kat stood up.

"Ok... Look Candy Flank, every demon or power given pony has varied magic powers. But one thing I can do for you Candy Flank is teach you to use a sword." Kat stood up ripping off two sticks from a tree and tossing one to me, she asked if I was ready so I nodded and she started to train me...

I woke up feeling like a wagon hit, I was sore all over. I pushed my self up, wobbling on my three legs as I grabbed my replacement and fitted on my stump of a joint warping the gold-yellow cloth on its middle to keep up our color and I threw on my armored jacket and waked out side as I made sure my gear was on right, ponies where already cooking and getting ready to pack up so packed up my tent and packed up everything else I had in my saddle bags and after everypony ate we started moving again, three should be about three more days before we get there so it won't be to long but nor is that a little hike.

Chapter 7

Canterlot... It took a long time to get here but here we are. While traveling I practiced sword fighting and getting use to the missing leg also got me a real blade, but that's going to be on break intel we are done in Canterlot so we needed to find out where the commander of the Royal Guard is so I trotted over to a guard, "hello sir, can you tell me where to find the commander of the Royal Guard is. It's very important." He looked scared of me after all I got only three legs, I have a dead body alive from some metal, not to mention a demon, oh and don't forget the small army. It was the same look the city folk gave as we headed where the scared guard pointed, the guard also told us the stallion who's the commander is out so somepony is filling in for him.

I walked in with everypony but the 20 others and Kat (who just teleported in) had to stay out I trotted up to the royalty siting on his throne. The fill in commander looked at me like I was trash, I think from my leg "who are you, what do you want, and what makes you like your so good you can just walk up to me?" I hated him. I don't know why I just did.

"I am Bon Bon The Bringer Of Hope, I want you to send guards to Dodge Junction it's guards are dead because they rooted there selves with corruption, and lastly I think I can just waltz up to you because I bucking saved a town!" He didn't change he just got out of his chair chuckling.

"Ok, you must not know who I am, I'm Prince Blueblood of the third royal family and fill in of the Royal Guard. You are... Bon Bon and by my guess a weak hussy, but lets give you a bit of niceness" he clapped his hooves and pointed to Lyra, two guards grabbed her putting a pistol to her head "here's the deal, we have a honorable dual with the blade you got there. If I win the blue bitch dies and no guards are sent, if you win she goes free and thirty guards go." He explained and I nodded in agreement.

We took our stances, I was pissed and bucking hated this guy so I took to charging blinded by rage. He easily let our blades meet as I took a few leaps back before pulling in to another charge, instead of letting out swords hit I spun around trying to slash his side but expecting it he dived out of the way, I noticed something. He cut my face a little we aren't sparing, this is killed or be killed and with that I charged again this time using his pansy-ass-ness on him I spun back around making him dive and from his dive I jumped at him sword swinging, but something shocking happened he raised his blade on the lower swinging part and path of my sword making it fly out of my hooves, I could have sworn I felt fate bitchslap me. I took to dodging his attacks very soon i noticed a weakness in the swinging pattern, I hooked my fake arm on his blade bring it to him. My plan was to stab him with his own blade but he hit the side of the blade with his hoof nocking it away, with that I tackled him brining my fake arm down on his neck, dead. But I didn't stop at that I just kept bashing his face in with the fake hoof I couldn't her any thing I was so mad I just kept bashing his face none stop, he needed to die more... I could hear the guards run in fear, hell I could smell there fear but I just kept beating is face in, it's turning in to a puddle of blood and shattered scull I wasn't planning on stoping but I felt Lyra put a hoof on my shoulder turning me to her, she was saddened to see me angry and crying but what she did next I was never expecting...

Lyra... Kissed me...

Chapter 8

Lyra... Kissed me... The world seemed to just melt when that happens, almost as if life was trying to make stuff good for me, not sure if it is after all life is a bucking asshat sometimes but... Lyra! She kissed me! Of course she quickly backed off saying sorry like a billion times second, I just walked up to her very unhappy that it was a quick little peek of a kiss and locked her in a long full on kiss, she was shocked but embraced it (that's a very good thing, i wouldn't want to seem creepy would i?) after a long while of kissing i broke off the kiss mostly to breath and she was gasping for breath also, everypony was just looking at us shocked and confused Lyra turned to me, something about the way she looked at me... almost like a sparkle in her eyes "B-Bon... you... we... erm... i like you?" she offered weakly. i think she is really confused about whats going on but i could see she truly meant it, she likes me and i like her... i couldn't really call it love, well at lest not yet but i just smiled at her.

"i... like you to Lyra..." a lot of d'aws rang out from the ponies watching, well not Kat who poofed up next to us giving both of us a VERY seductive look.

"hey Lyra, Bon if you ever want a threesome? i am in!" she poofed away Lyra just sat there blushing and my face looking... very odd (a lot like this :I   ) i shook my head almost as if none of that happened waving a hoof to call my men over and my freinds

It's been five weeks since the Canterlot trip, we went threw Hoofington for supplies me and Lyra have grown much closer, we are comfertable with kissing and hugging (which we do a lot) and even sharing a tent (glad I don't have wings or they would be stiff every night) we also picked up some new clothing, our next target being the Crystal Empire, but as we where traveling... Well... The ground split open and a wave of fire coming out, we quickly dived away and took out our guns when over 50 demons came out, half with fire in there hands half with swords, one walked up to me "BonBon the bringer of Hope, lord Discord told me to give you these things" he handed me a sealed note then slashed my face with a dagger, Lyra quickly killed the demon who slashed as all the other demons went back in to the crack, after a few moments I felt woozy and passed out.

Slowly I woken every thing slightly blurred and kinda like I am not seeing everything I should be, Lyra looking down at me worried, very skinny (in a bad way) I seemed to be in a medical tent, one of my shoulders I think her name was Red a Heart seemed to be working the medical things "Oh Bon! Your awake! I was so worried!" Lyra said hugging me tight but then slowly bringing up a hoof held mirror showing me my face, I was wearing a eye patch on one eye and coming out of the bottom of the eye patch, a large scar.

"Ugh... How long have I been asleep?..."

Red Heart turned saying calmly "three days"  i stood up fast looking worried but Lyra slowly pushed me down for me to relax, Red Heart turned to me slowly "I... Haven't told Lyra this yet but... Miss. Bon you have been poisoned by that demon and I haven't found any real cure..." Lyra looked like her world has just crashed and started crying I hugged her and rubbed her back saying every thing is ok.

I felt a shiver go down my spine and the odd voice of Discord in my mind "Oh my dear Bonnie... You must find the cave of souls and enter the underworld, once you pass ever test and face me I will send my champion demon to battle you, both having any weapon you want and if you kill him I will give you the cure, good luck!" The voice slowly faded...

After telling everypony the words Discord said we set off towards the cave of souls every day I felt a little of my self die, it was terrifying but after about a week, me and Lyra spending much time together wondering if it will be the last time we reached it, the cave of souls... Lyra convinced me and the others to stay in camp one more night before I go in the cave alone like Discord said, I spent the day greasing up. But at night, well Lyra had a idea...

Chapter 9

So, the morning after that... "Pleasing" night I had to get packed, I swear it felt like I was carrying the camp from how prepared I was made then. The cave. The cave was dark the second I entered, not only that but there was a loud crack and the cave sealed it self with falling rocks, alone that's all I could explain how I felt, so alone and so cold... I lit up one of the many torches i packed for light as I headed further in the cave slowly... After a long while of going down I found a river, the rivered seemed as if it was made of souls and there was a small boat with a undead looking pony that seemed ready to control it down the river  I shrugged and walked over to him "Uhm 'sup 'Skeletor' can you get me past this river" he just stomps lightly and after a second I wobbled and fell on my face, just as I noticed my gear was gone including my metal leg and eye patch covering the blinded eye he hit me on the head with his boat oar nocking my candy face out.

When I woke up he was at the other end of the river, he picked me up with shocking power and threw me off the boat, with a hard thud I landed on the glassy sand, when I looked back for the bone-pony he was gone, I shrugged and tried to get up only to land here on my face again I sighed and stayed there on the ground for a long while Intel out the corner of my eyes I saw a leg bone about my leg, a little smaller I crawled over there, the glassy sand cutting up my chest, I screamed in pain my after a moment I reached the leg, it sadly was still connected to a skeleton which I ignored and ripped the leg off of, I bit down on the cloths of the dead pony and ripped it off, tying the leg bone to my stump I noticed I saw looking back down on the rest of the pony, I sighed and felt like I couldn't just leave the skeleton I took the leg from to I took another bit of cloth from the cloths on the pony tying the skeleton on my back and looked around, I saw three ways I could go. North seemed like there would be more of the glass-sand, not a good idea noticing my hooves are bleeding a lot so I looked west. There was some kind of creepy forest that I could almost SEE the evil floating out, so I looked east. There was a large wall and a normal sized door, the wall almost seemed to cover the full east side so that way seemed best. I looked up at my skeleton... For some reason the name "Dark Fire" came to mind so I kinda shrugged and said "Well Dark, we are going east!" I wasn't sure why I said said that but I started east, going towards the door hurt due to the glass-sand under my hooves but after what I could guess was a hour I reached I door kicking it open with my bone hoof (the hoof Dark let me barr - Uhm I mean I took...) and walked in the first thing that happened was that the ground was stone and there was three doors, each saying a word above them the one to the right was "Level 1" the left was was "Level 2" the middle one was "Champion" I tried opening the middle, locked same with the left one so that means the right one or "Level 1" was first... Sadly...

So I entered the door and started walking, it was very dark I couldn't see anything intel I heard clicking of hooves behind me, I turned to see Lyra holding a torch, I tackle hugged her and in a blur of words I explained every I went threw, even about Dark Fire.

After my ranting Lyra spoke "my way down was kinda the same, but I came down to help!" She sorta shrugged at the bone thing and we started walking, I let her lead the way for three reasons 1) she had the torch 2) she seemed to have her gear 3) I mean... That flank! How could I not stare!?

So after, as far as I can tell, four hours for walking Lyra turned to me sighing and said "I think we are lost..." Before I could say anything she got close, very close it made me blush and i saw a faint extra glow grow on her horn, she was trying to hide that she was floating something other then the torch, all I got as warning was the glint of the dagger before Lyra, the mare I love will of of my life, sinked a dagger in my back...

Betrayal...

Chapter 10: Door 1 Betrayal...

I fell, the emotional pain hurt far more then the dagger it's self did, but I can just sit there and let Lyra kill me, sure I love her but... No, I must fight back! I slide a bit back on my back hooves and swung my bone hoof right in her jaw, she stumbled back a bit before pulling out another dagger and grinning evilly, I hated that look... I ripped the dagger out of my back and charged at Lyra, I could feel the anger bubble inside me, I loved her! I loved her and she took that love and ripped it in into 47 little bits!! I am going to kill her!

                                              (Lyra's point of view)

So far camp has been boring, I hope Bonnie is doing ok down in that cave, I was kinda thinking of going down there after her but the rocks stop me and Gunhoof told me all that would happen is I would be killed, at lest Kat told me that soon she can connect with Bonnie's mind and let me teleport letters to her, oh how I hope she's ok...

                                        (Back to Bon)

I clashed daggers pushing on Lyra intel she fell back wards, I swung for a stab but she rolled tossing the dagger at me, i dived away my self but that didn't stop the dagger from making a cut on my face, I am pretty sure I yelled fuck, I now have two scars on my face, one blinding my eye, and one on my back not to mention my lack of legs... Anyway I turned to face Lyra and I twirled my dagger before charging at the unarmed pony "Bonnie wait!" But I didn't stop, I drove my dagger hard into her neck, blood came out of her mouth before she fell down, dead.

                                                  (Lyra again)

I couldn't fell more alive! I am ready to write a note to Bonnie! I started writing it going something like this "Dear Bonnie, my love, I have been safe and sound at the camp, I am not sure how long it will be before your back but I believe in you, please come back soon, I miss you so much, love Lyra Heartstings" I handed it, sealed, to Kat and she proofed it away, I turned and sat down on a tree stump facing the cave, waiting...

                                                        (Bon once again)

I started walking away from Lyra, more down into the room of door 1 when a small bit of fire appeared, once the fire disappeared there was a letter, I picked it up reading slowly, now I am very confused, didn't I just kill Lyra? Unless... I turned sharply around to see Lyra get back up, half her body demoniac, she made a fire sword and charged, I gasped diving from the blazing blade. I tried to get a stab into the demons side, I can't even call it Lyra any more, anyway the demon turned blocking my dagger with his sword I growled to my self and dropped the dagger, I turned to the skeleton on my back, Dark Fire, I whispered "sorry..." And ripped off one of his legs and focused into it, soon the leg becoming the handle for my light blade, I grinned at the demon charging. The demon charged back and we clashed blades, I brought my bone hoof away from the swords and hit the demon-Lyra in the chest, focusing again the sent a sharp blast of light into its chest, once it moved back in pain I dug my blade into its chest. Now it's truly dead, I slipped the light sword into Darks ripe to hold the sword in place, I heard a long click sound and I headed out of door 1 it was a long while before I finally reached the exist of door 1, now in front of the last two doors...

Chapter 11: Door 2 Pain...

I just sat there thinking about all that went down, looking at all the blood oozing out of my wound as I stared at the next door and I slowly started to cry, why me? Why did I have to go into all of this? I don't want this... I just want a life with Lyra but that can't happen, no that's not going to happened unless I kill the man that made all of this happen, you might be thinking Discord but no sure he made me go to hell but that's not what i am talking about, the real issue was a stallion named Blood Scar he is a massive crime lord. He must die...

After I was done crying and doing my mental monologue I got up and made sure my skeleton armor was fitted and my knee light sword was still in place before I opened the door, first thing that happened was a small spark that turned into my fur lighting ablaze, then the fact all of the ground is glass-sand, oh and not to mention the small army of undead ponies coming at me, I started to cry from the pain but I couldn't let my self die, no not when I have Lyra waiting for me. I pulled the light sword from the rip storage in the bones and ran at the undead burning- no pun intended- with pain but ran threw then cutting as I went, if I am not mistaken each door has a a challenge I needed to go threw before next one opened I cried out in pain from the glass inside of my hooves and burning on my skin I sunk my blade into one of the undead's head before spinning cutting more I didn't have time for this if didn't get past this stuff in time I will burn to death!

I looked around now that I had some chance, still in loads of pain and I noticed there was nothing but the army, I realized something... I HAD TO KILL ALL OF THE FUCKING UNDEAD. I ran back into the hord and kicked one down jumping into another cleaving it in half, I stabbed the one on the ground and slashed another, there was still 48 I swung to the side killing two more I threw the blade  into another's neck and beat another to death before I grabbed my blade and slashed many more after about a hour there was 17 more, I pulled my blade to the next few and charged nocking a few down giving short stabs to deal with them, 14 more I shanked tow more bringing their numbers to 12 before I fell down in pain, it took be a bit to get back up slashing another to take them to 11 I stumbled back and focused energy to a hoof, I sent 3 odd blasts of light each one into a undead fool dropping it to 8 I felt so much closer to being done with this shit.

I dived away from a bit of a undead pushing my blade into it jaw bring it up threw its scull splitting it head in half and stabbing 2 more in the neck to make the numbers 5 before I got a silly idea in my mind and I forced the energy to my lungs and said some odd words before sending a blue wave nocking the last 5 down and dived one beating it to death and slashing ones neck off its head then I puked on the ground for many reasons, still on fire and crying I but my energy to my hoof again send 3 light blasts into the last 3 undead stumbling to the door out, once I reached it, now out of the glass-sand me rolled intel the fire is gone, and looked at my fur, my old cream colored fur was patchy and what was left was burned black, I tried to not cry again but i couldn't when i started thinking about Lyra, will she still love when she see how fucked up I am? No way to know but I sat there in front of the last door crying as the second door lit up in red light showing the words

               "Door 2: Pain"

Chapter 12: The Challenger

After the long while of crying and tending to my wounds I got up, and opened the last door labeled "Challenger" when I opened I saw Discord (that fucking asshat) siting on a throne made of skulls and he got up and said to me "Oh there you are! Alright then we can start the fun battle! Blood for the blood god and skulls for the skull throne!" He snapped and in front of me appeared a small cure foal who looked at me with fury in his eyes "Fight!" Yelled Discord but I couldn't do it it was just a foal but the foal didn't give me a pick on that as made a HUGE sword and charged at me I tryed to dodge but it was a huge sword so it slashed a lot of skin off the side of my leg I winced in pain and I knew I had to fight, holding but the tears from what I was about to do I took out my light blade.

One the kid charged again I blocked his attack and nicked his sword away swing my own blade down at this, he easily moved away as I went in for another strike he swung his sword around into my side though my bone armor blocked it mostly, I dived towards him my blade ready to stab and he tried to move back but my blade got in in his hoof, nailing him to that ground, he struggled to get out but he couldn't "Look little guy, we can just end this peacefully" .... He spat in my face... That little bitch spat in my face when he knew he can't get free. Ok death time, I picked up his sword (with much struggle) and swung it down in his head, I saw it cleave his head in two. But then something odd happened his body burst open and it was him but full grown size, he was still dead though wait...

.....

"FUCKING SIZE SPELLS!!!" I yelled in anger and stormed over to Discord who was laughing his ass off "Cure me. Now" I growled at him and he replied simply

"Alright drink this." He snapped his fingers and in front of me was a bottle labeled 'Demon making potion' I looked up at him.

"... What the hell this this?"

"The cure silly filly."

"This is will make me into a demon"

"Yep"

"Where. Is. The. Cure."

"There is none, only way to stop it is to be a demon, now drink up!"

"Is this really the only way?.."

He nodded and slowly I drank tears starting to flow again, not only am I fucked up but a demon now? Lyra... She won't love me... After drinking the potion the skin that was furless turned into a, odd hard skin and cream colored and the black fur patches sank in and turned to white glowing spots, my mane went to its normal curly pink blueness and all there again the bone in was using as my leg was sealed to me by growing skin and my bone amor the same, sealed to me... I felt so good I felt like I could take on the world.

Before I could say anything I was teleported right in front of the camp, slowly I walked in every one raising there guns not noticed who i was, I gave a small smile and waved "Hello everyone"

Skip if you don't like sex :c

Once it got dark Lyra pulled me into our tent zipping it closed and turning to me a sorta subduction in her eye making me blush she quickly pushed me on my back and said "Well... We may as well have a little fun before you leave right~?" And I could do is give a little shrug as she put a hoof on my chest slowly trailing it down intel it landed softly on my pussy, she pressed in a little rubbing softly, brining a moun to me as she slowly speed up and as she rubbed at this slow speed she started to move her head that way.

"Mmmh~" was all I was really able to say once Lyra got her head in place and licked slowly I let out more sharp mouns as licked the feeling of her tongue glide across my parts maybe me shiver and moun with delight, she started to lick faster as that pretty devilish smile grew on her face. I could feel Lyra put her tongue INSIDE my pussy, oh how I mound with pleasure as Lyra licked and licked inside of me, a odd feeling started to raise inside of me, I could only guess it was my climax "L-Lyra... I am g-going to cum!" I said right before all in her muzzle my cum drooled out, Lyra just licked it up as I feel back, all of my energy as gone and just as I felt my self slowly fall to sleep I saw Lyra lay down next to me snuggling close and giving me a small kiss before saying

"Good night my love~" then... I was asleep.
