Fallout Equestria: Embers
Grey Walls
Load Full StoryNext ChapterGrey, impenetrable walls narrowing into thick, steel hallways. Rooms left to right filled with ponies either sleeping or fucking, but now that I think about it its probably the latter. The Atrium bustling with ponies, hurrying to get to their jobs their stuck with for the rest of our lives. The Overmares office occupied with the one pony that`s given the responsibility to protect us. Honestly, I hate her. Brainwashing us with that bullshit, saying outside is nothing but a void filled with helpless souls; who had the misfortune to be outside when the bombs dropped.
Buts it not all that bad. Besides everypony calling me 'nerd' for studying all the time. The only pony that doesnt make fun of me is my little sister, Flash. Weird, Im a Unicorn and shes a Pegasus. Mom and Dad died a couple years ago, when the Overmare was elected. So, I was the only pony who could take care of her; But, Mom and Dad mentioned a brother who left the Stable. Lucky son of a mule. So youre probably wondering what the unlucky job I got: Engineering. Some other ponies have to clean toilets, so its way better than that. Oh well, stuck here for the rest of my life; in this steel prison.
Beep. Beep. Beep. I extend my hoof trying to turn off the alarm, knocking everything off of my nightstand. Finally, my hoof clicks the alarm off and the annoying beeping irrupts and stops. Really, why can`t we just wake up whenever we want? After getting out of bed, I slip my utility barding on. I peek out into the hall and see nopony, and I walk out into the hall; and start making my way to engineering track.
Walking, I start to hear poniesdoors opening and eventually hoofsteps. I start to trot and eventually gallop. I honestly dont wanna get caught around a whole bunch of assholes. I think today we have to repair the ve-
I knock into the toughest pony in the Stable: Big Doon. Well, Im a dead pony. I wonder what theyll do with Flash, replace me? I chanced a look at Big Doon and He picked me up by the collar. "S-S-Sorry?" I close my eyes and put my hooves up to protect my face, not like it will do good anyways. Big Doon reaches his hoof up and punches right across my muzzle. I could feel the warm, red liquid pouring down my muzzle and dropping onto the floor. He punches again and blood comes spurting out once another time. Now, there was an audience watching and chanting 'Fight Fight Fight'.
After several pounces, he drops me to the ground and starts walking down the hall; ponies clearing way for the mammoth of a pony. I eventually stand up and wipe the blood off my muzzle, and start the journey to Engineering. As I walked, ponies glanced looks at me and murmuring. Probably about me, mostly.
"Yo, what happened?" The main engineering pony asked. I walked past him and started trotting towards the chart for the day. He catched up to me and looked at me, waiting for my answer. Still looking forward, I replied. "I got in a fight."
"With who?"
"Big Doon. I was walking and I bumped into him, I still think he takes drugs." I chuckled at the thought.
"And he beat the pulp out of you?" He asked. Orange Juice never was the shiniest apple in the apple tree. Or orange for his case. I nodded and kept walking. After looking at the chart, I walked to a toolbox; I levitated it and placed it at the vent. So, I was right about the vents, atleast. Pulling out a wrench, I noticed the drugs placed in my toolbox. I swear to Celestia, I hate everpony in this Stable. I picked it up with my horn and walked over to the trashcan. I noticed a Security Guard staring at me. Well, this day can`t get any worse, Right?
We arrived at the Overmare`s office and the Security Guard opened the door to the room and pointed his hoof at the Overmare. I walked with her and to the desk. Behind the desk, is the all powerful Overmare, regent as ever. "Thank you, Raspberry." The Security Guard nodded and walked out of the room, locking the door behind him. After he left, the Overmare looked back at me and said. "What is it this time, Wary?" Her hooves crossed across the desk, waiting for my response.
"Somepony placed drugs in my toolbox." I said trying to sound as honest as I can.
"Uh-Huh." The Overmare stood up and walked up to the intercom and speaked into it. "Escort Wary and her sister to the Stable Door. Make sure they dont put up a fuss." She sat down and pointed to the door. I scowled at her and stood up, walked over and dropped onto my haunches. I cant get believe were getting *kicked out of the Stable.*This is ridiculous! Flash and I cant survive out there! Finally the Security Guard arrived and we started to walk to Stable door. Eventually, we were at the door and sure enough Flash was there.
"Wary, what`s happening?" Flash asked, with worry showing up in her voice.
"It`s okay. Just follow me at costs, understand?" I said with skipping a beat. She nodded and I stared at the Guard, he pointed to the door and we walked to it. He pressed some buttons on the control panel, and the door skidded back; slipped to the side. I levitated Flash onto my back and together we walked through the opening.
Through the door was a linear, narrow cave. At the end was a thin, wooden door. We trotted over to it and opened it. Flash and I put our hooves up, to cover our eyes. Finally, after adjusting to the brightness and looking out over the hill. Well, couldn`t get worse, Right?
