The reaper
Load Full StoryNext ChapterAll in all, I am having a bad day. I went to the annual forest warden meeting and they suspended my. Something about not going to anyof the meetings and the fact that they just didnt like me. They would not even let me stay for the party afterwards. As I was driving home some rocks fell out of the back of this giant semi and chipped the windshield as well as scratching my new subaru’s paint job. I am getting desperate now so I drove to the nearest convenience store and bought six 2Ls of mountain dew and some Vodka to mix up some drinks later. The wind is picking up as imI drive home, the guy on the news is saying that some freak storm in brewing south of our town and that I should stay indoors.
When I get back to my house my driveway is completely covered with assorted shit. Some shingles have blown of my neighbour's house and and scattered around my drive way with the nails pointing up at me. I park my car on the street next to my drive way and start picking up the shingles. Its wall going swell until i stepped on a nail and it goes right through my shoe into my foot. “WHAT THE FUCK, GODDAMIT!” Some little old lady across the street walking her dog gives me the finger at keeps walking. SIghing I pull the nail out of my shoe, grab my drinks and walk into my house.
My house is a two story condo with a unfinished basement. I had the choice of finishing it or getting my subaru and I chose the cool car. I am still in the process of moving in so there is piles of boxes and bags strewn around the floor.
I wade through the piles of assorted junk into the back of my house where i had cleared a space for drinks, my tv and the xbox. I throw in call of duty and join a lobby. Within in minutes i'm swearing into my mike and raging at the poor people on my team. Eventually I hear a knock at the door at goto open it.
On my doorstep there is a black robed figure holding a scythe and staring at my with glowing red eyes. “I have come for you” He says in a raspy voice.
“NOPE” And I slam the door in his face and run back into the house. I'm thinking it was probably just some teenage kid playing some practical joke until hear a hissing sound the door blows up behind me. Not looking back I grab the closest thing which happens to be a open bottle of mountain dew and throw it behind me. I run into the kitchen and grab my pocket knife. turning around i see a very wet grim reaper snarling at my with his scythe on fire.
I take one look at the flaming sytch and run out of the hole that used to be my front door. I jump over the hedge and make my way to my car. Just and I reach the door to my car a ball of black fire hits the back of the car and disintegrates it
I start running up the street when I hear a honking behind me. I turn around and see the grim reaper in a mother fuckin harly speeding towards me. I jump aside and he speeds past me. I hear the honking again and I see a semi truck with black skulls on the side speeding around the corner. “ O fuck me” And everything went dark.
“SPIKE!” I open my eyes and see this purple form standing over me. I blink a couple time and the form sharpens into… A unicorn? The unicorn thingy was staring at me with wide eyes. Suddenly the horn on top of her head starts to glow. Without thinking I lash out and grab the horn. The glow appears to be halted by my hand, all that is happening is the unicorn has a look of deep concentration on her face. I let go of the horn and am immediately thrown backwards into a bookshelf. The unicorn advances on my with a gleam in her eyes.
“Spike come down here quickly.” she says while staring at me. “ I think I may have soumound some intelligent life again.”
“Do you want me to bring the axe?” A little kid’s voice responds
After hearing the word axe I jump up and grab the nearest thing to me, a book. The unicorns horn starts to glow again so i impale the book on her horn. She stumbles back and I jump out a window that was left open next to a bed.
As soon as I hit the ground I roll and take off running through what appears to be a town. As far as I can see the whole town is populated by ponies and looks like it came straight out of a children's book. The roofs are thatched and the houses resemble old victorian style condos. Soon i've left the town behind and i'm staring at a sinister looking forest. I hear a small explosion behind me and I can see the purple unicorn flying towards me in a bubble. I turn around and sprint into the forest.
I sprint through the trees, jumping over stumps and crashing through vines and brambles. After about fifteen minutes I slow down and start hiding my tracks. I climb half way up a tree and star jumping from tree to tree like a freaking ninja. Soon I can see a stone structure through the tangle of vines and branches. As I get closer the structure turn into a giant running castle that looks like it had been abandoned for about ten years max. As I walked around the ruin i noticed a tower that had a hole in one of the walls. I walked into it and started to set up a camp.
