Fallout Equestria: Home

My name is Black Bullet. I have been living in this hell for 16 years (Basically my entire life). Well you might want to know what I look like. I'm like most normal mares. I have white skin and my mane is black and purple. My eyes are a dark blue. I'm not the most beautiful mare in the wasteland but who needs looks when everyone kills each other in the wasteland. My family and I have been living as peacefully as possible. My mom my brother and I. Dad died in the war. Enough with my life, that's boring.

"Hey Bullet what are you looking at," my brother asked.

"Nothing," I replied. I was looking at the barren wasteland which was indeed nothing. Although the raider's do come in from time to time there really isn't much else exciting. "Hey Fire, how much caps do you have?"

"Uh, like 200,"

Wow my family is broke, I really never realized it until now. Even though my brother does random jobs for people in the neighborhood it really is not enough to make a living.

"Hey Bullet I'm going to find my friends and maybe we can find some jobs".

"Okay have fun, just don't bring them back with you".

"Why not?"

"I caught one of them staring at my ass last time they were here,".

Damn, you would think that guys older then me would be more mature. Around here, they are no where close to it. My brother is older then me but the way he acts you could mistake him for a young colt. If only he wasn't built like a tank I could literally pass as being older then him. I watched him go to his friends house. I was tired from the day before so I laid down on the rock behind me and tried to get a nap in.

*BEEP* *BEEP* "What, what?" *BEEP* I woke up to the sound of my pipbuck going off. Damn I need to figure out a way to change the alarm.

BANG

"What the hell?

   That gunshot sounded like a .357. One thought raced through my mind. "No, FIRE!". I galloped as fast as I could in the direction of the gunshot. I made sure my pistol was in its holster. I went over a hill and quickly flattened myself on the ground so I wouldn't be seen.

"Hey! Everypony put their guns down!"

Of all the people who could be yelling that, it had to be a raider. My brother and his friends are in some deep shit this time. I was just glad that he was not dead. His friend, however, did not have the same luck. He got shot through the head and his corpse was laying dead on the ground. "Poor bastard". The 5 raiders were pointing their guns at my brother and his friends. I wanted to yell but I would probably get shot myself. To bad my brother didn't have mare in his group to charm the raiders. Well time to put my charm to the test.

I silently slid down the hill while to raiders were arguing with my brothers group. I was 20 feet from the groups and I hid behind a rock. I took off holster and used my magic to get a dress out of my backpack. Don't judge me, every mare should pack an extra change of clothes. Well I guess pack clothes because normally I don't wear any. I put the dress on loosely and came out from behind the rock.

"Hellooo babe, how are you doing?" one of the raiders asked. Raiders are complete idiots. They all fall for some slut looking mare. I guess I needed to play along.

"Well, well, well, what are you boys fighting about?" I had to keep down my laughter. The raiders were no longer paying any attention to my brother and his friends.

"Awe us? We aren't fighting we were just messing around with these kids." Right after he said that all of the raiders lowered their guns. My plan was working.

When I was 3 feet from them the leader tried to grab my dress. I kindly took his arm and put him to the ground. "Any other takers?"

The raiders just stared at me stunned. Which really isn't that big of a surprise to me. If raiders were this attracted to me I wonder what they would do if someone slightly better looking then me was here.

One of them gained his dignity and raised his gun. "You may be beautiful but I will shoot you,".

"Oh really?" My brother raised his pistol and put a bullet through the raiders side. He yelled in pain and fell to the ground. I tried to warn my brothers group but it was to late the remaining of my brothers friends got shot.

This was one of those times that I was glad my brother was the leader. He was saved for last. The remaining raiders pointed their guns at me. "Let him up or we shoot you,".

I let the raider up and he spit in my direction and walked away. I would trade anything to snap his neck right now. They turned to my brother.

"Come with us or we shoot you,".

"No!" I couldn't think of anything else to yell. I put a reflective shield around my brother. Now I know what you are thinking. Why didn't I do it for his friends? I didn't have enough time to make one.

"Well babe there's nothing you can do".

"Quit calling me babe, fucker".

"Feisty, I like it. I may have to bring you along".

"I swear to Celestia, if you touch me I will end you". Raiders have no idea what personal space is. Probably because they molest little fillies for sport, I wouldn't doubt they would do the same to a mare. I'm one of the lucky mares that wasn't in slavery. Today hopefully wouldn't be the day I became one.

"Ok we won't touch you but your friend over there is coming with us".

"Bullet its ok just let them take me".

"Great mare great name," the raider commented. I was so close to marching over there and shooting him. If only I didn't leave my gun behind that rock.

The raiders bound my brother in ropes and took him away. Once they were out of sight I tore off my dress and grabbed my gun and backpack. I stuffed the dress back into the bag and I went in the direction they took my brother. I took one last look at Fillydalphia. I didn't want to bother telling my mother, she wouldn't have let me go. I may be young but my brother taught me most everything I need to know to survive in the wasteland.

*BEEP* "Fuck". *BEEP* "Dammit..." I shut off my pipbucks alarm and willed myself to get up. I had been following what I thought was the raiders footstep's for 2 hours. Then I took a quick nap in a cave. "Ewww". I spit my tail out of my mouth. I always wake up to my tail curled around my body and for some reason its in my mouth. I really need to clean myself. I don't have time forget about that. I walked outside to find that it was still dark. I kept following the path that hopefully would lead to the raiders. When I find them all hell is going to break loose.

I walked in silence for 15 minutes without anything out of the ordinary. I found an abandoned town, well mostly abandoned. I went to the first house and knocked. Silence. I knocked again, no answer. I tried to knob and it was open so I walked inside. I wasn't much of a fan of what I found inside. A male pegasus had his head severed off and a small filly was hiding under the table.

"P-Please d-do-don't h-hurt me". I ignored her and went in the other rooms of the house. A mare had been shot and dumped face down on a bed. This wasn't new to me, murder was what ponies did to survive. Survive... That word was the only word that everypony tried to do. I went to another room and found a .50 Caliber Sniper Rifle with 30 rounds. I took it with my magic and slid it into my back pack, well most of the gun anyway. I went back out to the main room.

"Please, help me. They said they are going to sell me when they get back". I honestly felt bad for her, so why ignore the request.

"Ok, come with me. Who were these ponies that came?"

"I don't know but the pony in charge was green and had a yellow and white mane". That was exactly what the leader of the little raiders looked like. I knew that my brother wouldn't come back with them, they probably have him locked up at their base.

"Ok come out from under the table". She obeyed and she was wiping back tears. She looked really fucked up. Her blue and white mane was all over the place. She had white skin like me, however, she looked like she had not eaten in 3 days.

"Do you have any food?"

"Yeah I think," I gave her an apple. She took a big bite out of it savoring the taste. After she had finished she gave me a big smile. She walked up and gave me a hug. I have not had a hug from anypony since I was a little filly and I was not about to pass up this moment. I hugged her back tightly. I made a promise to myself I would take care of her. She deserved it, after what she had just seen.

"Hey, my name is Black Bullet what is yours?"

"I'm Diamond Dagger". Well hopefully she will be good at combat.

"I like your name, is it ok if I just call you Diamond?"

"Yeah". She began to tear up again. I'm not good with sad fillies. I just wrapped her in another hug.

"It's just that my parents called me that". Well now I feel terrible. I have no idea what else to do. I led her outside so she didn't have to look at her dead parents.

"I'm glad to see you took daddy's gun". I stopped in my tracks. I forgot that she was bound to notice I basically robbed her house.

"No, no, I'm not mad. Thank you for taking it, he would be glad to see somepony using it". I breathed a sigh of relief. I was dearly hoping she wouldn't abandon me. I really could use a companion.

"How old are you Diamond?"

"13".

Well she is older than I thought, honestly she looked only 10. I haven't seen a foal in a very long time so I guess my way to guess age is off.

"How old are you Bullet?"

"I'm 16".

"What are you doing out here then? Without anypony to look after you?"

"My dad died and my mother didn't want to come, the raiders who did this to your parents took my brother away from me". I knew the thing about my mother was a lie but that's not important.

"Bullet you look like your at least 20, mean people might kill you". Unfortunately I did look older because of my muscular build. Don't get me wrong, I don't look like a huge oaf. I'm just more muscular then most 16 year olds.

"Don't worry I'm not afraid of death. Its the wasteland, death is a normal thing now". I really didn't fear death but now I promised I would protect Diamond. I'm her last hope for happiness. Even if I made that promise to myself, I will still keep it.

"Bullet please don't die, you are like my sister now. I've lost my parents and you took me with you, your my only family left". She began to cry again.

Well that is just great, now she thinks I'm family. Now I can't die. I wrapped her in another big hug.

"Diamond lets stay here until the raiders come back, when they realize you left maybe we can follow them back to their base".

"B-but what if they hurt you?"

"I will try not to get hurt, I promise," I smiled. "Is there a store around here?"

"Yeah follow me". I followed her through deserted street down into the more populated part of town. I saw a bar, a general store, and a hotel. I was thinking of going to the bar, maybe for a drink. I walked into the general store and looked around. It wasn't much. That's a shame but it had most of what I needed. I bought some food, health potions, bullets, a new pistol, a holster, and a new knife. That was 800 caps. So now I was broke but I'm sure I will get money when I get back to Fillydalphia, if I ever get back.

Diamond led me to another empty house. "The raiders said they would come back in a week. So we can settle here".

I looked around, I found 200 caps and food. I have a feeling my good luck will soon come to an end.

"Diamond I have some stuff for you". She walked over to me.

"What do you have?" I used my magic to slide the new gun and a holster onto her leg.

"Only use that in emergencies, ok?" She nodded in response.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" She licked my cheek and my face quickly turned red. Dammit why did I have to be a fillyfooler. Before you get the wrong idea, the only reason I like mares is because I have been deprived of stallions in my life. So I have every right reason to be a fillyfooler. Not to say its right, but stallions these days molest mares so I really wouldn't want to be with one.

"Bullet are you ok?" I realized that I was still blushing and quickly turned away to get myself together.

"Yes I am fine. Why do you ask?"

"Well your face got really re-". She looked away from me. Fuck, now what does she think of me. "Um, forget I said anything".

I gave her a playful smile. "I was planning on not doing that". Great now she knows I like mares. To be honest she isn't to bad looking herself. Dammit why am I thinking like this. Oh yeah I'm a fillyfooler.

"Bullet, its ok to like mares, stallions these days..." She trailed off. Glad to know she has the same logic I have. I went to the second room of the small house to find one bed and a nightstand.

"Diamond, are you tired?"

"Yeah, are you?"

"Yeah I walked for 3 hours to get here". I laid down on the floor next to the bed.

"Why are you down there?"

"Don't you want the bed?"

"I'm sure there is room for you up here".

I blushed and laid down on one of the two pillows. Instead of Diamond sleeping on the other pillow she curled herself into a ball and laid on my stomach. "She isn't making this easy," I thought to myself. I curled myself up into a ball around her and fell asleep.

"Bullet! Bullet!" My brother was calling for me. I ran in his direction only to find that his skin was on inside out and his eyes were just black holes.

"Join me Bullet".

"No way fucker. Fire what the fuck happened?" He grinned at me with a sick smile. He pulled out a knife and lunged at me.

*BEEP* I jolted my head up realizing I just had a nightmare. I turned off my pipbuck. I also spit out my tail from my mouth. Why does that keep happening. I felt something warm against my body. I looked down to see Diamond looking at me concerned.

"Bullet are you ok?"

"Yeah, why?"

"You were screaming in your sleep".

"I had a nightmare that's all, nothing to worry about".

"On the bright side you eating your tail was funny". She giggled.

"I don't know why I do that, it happens every time I wake up".

I looked at my pipbuck, I only slept for 5 hours. Well in my case that's a lot.

"Diamond are you hungry?"

"Yeah a little".

I gave her another apple. Even though I hardly am able to make it with the provisions by myself let alone with Diamond, it was still nice to have her around. I went outside for a second to get some fresh air. I heard a noise come from the outside of the back of the house. I went around to investigate to be met with a pistol bullet to my leg. "Fuck!" I turned to see a raider spy holding a smoking pistol pointed at me.

"You know what you son of a bitch". Before he could react I leaped on him and started to choke him. He tried to throw me off but I kept my grip and he slipped into unconsciousness. I pulled out my pistol as Diamond walked out and stared at the scene in horror.

"Diamond! Look away!". She did as she was told and I shot the raider in the head twice for good measure. I limped over to Diamond to see if she was alright. I led her back inside. My wound was bleeding and showed no signs of stopping.

"Diamond, please get me a healing potion and the medical kit". She came over crying.

"What's wrong?"

She hugged me tight. "You got shot, you promised me you wouldn't get hurt".

"Well give me a second and I will be as good as new". I took the medical kit and set the healing potion on the ground beside me. I took the surgical knife out of the bag. The bullet was still lodged in my leg so I had to dig it out. I scraped at the wound making more blood flow out and I screamed in pain but finally the bullet dropped to the ground. "Fuck... Hollow Points". I drank the healing potion and bandaged my leg up as much as I could. It stung like a bitch but I was patched up now.

Diamond watched the entire ordeal in terror when I was done she burst out crying more.

"Diamond I'm going to be fine, no reason to cry". I grabbed her and hugged as tight as I could without choking her.

"Bullet please don't die on me... Please," she whispered in my ear.

"Don't worry I don't plan on going anywhere". The window shattered when I heard another gun shot. I brought the .50 Caliber to me and looked down the scope. I saw one raider and I shot. His head exploded from the blast of the .50 Caliber round. None of them seemed to match the group leaders description.

Diamond was cowering in fear under the table.

"Hey its ok, we got both the spies".

"How do you know there is only two?"

"I stole the pony in the back's radio. I heard someone ask if both the spies were still alive". I wondered what else I would need to have when the raiders finally come in 6 days. I had enough ammo but could I kill all of them? I will have to ask the locals for help. If they indeed do not leave and try to kill me. I just wanted another nap and I slowly fell asleep thinking about Diamond.
