Destiny: Equestria
Lone Wolf...
Previous Chapter"Do you think she`s okay. Her dot has been out for days."
"I dont know. But in my short time of knowing Deadshot, Ive learned she is a tough pony."
"But, not Everypony can survive getting stabbed through the chest."
"She will survive. Don`t worry."
"I hope so."
Death.
I never thought it would be like this. I thought it would be the everafter like in the books. But, I digress. I was certainly not was going to survive falling to the ground. My wings were broken, so basically Tank killed me.
But what is death? The act of dying? No. Dying is when you decide to eternally sleep and not wake up. When you decide your body has had enough and to give it the rest it deserves.
No. I won`t die. I have to find the Core! I have to find the Elements. I need to get out of here! I need to find Mystic and Tank! Glowing, small orbs started floating around me, and into the distance. I looked at it with my nonexistent eyes, and followed it. My not...there, legs walking towards it.
The orbs dissolved into embers, reforming into something much bigger: The Core. I reached out for it, trying to see if I touch it; if it will bring me back to the land of the living.
I touched it and my body felt relaxing. Behind me was a loud explosion, revealing the six ponies from the past. I looked at them, waiting for one of to speak and speak they did.
"You need to wake up, Deadshot!" The purple unicorn said.
"Come on, wake up! The City needs you!" Rainbow Dash screamed at me.
"Why? They killed me, in the first place!" I shouted back.
Twilight, is it Twilight? Twilight stepped up and spoke, "What about Mystic and Tank, Hmm? What about your mother?" How do they know my mother?
"We are a part of you, Deadshot. Thats how told we you cant touch pegasi." This is impossible! They can talk to me in my head!
"How? How can I wake up?"
"Touch the Core. It makes you immortal. It will bring you back to life." I nodded, walking slowly to the Core. My steps felt like the whole world was standing on top of me. I stand at it. The power to make me immortal and bring me back to life.
I reached out, but hesitated. Did I want to live? Did I want to be immortal? I left my hoof, if you can call it that, there in the air. I felt my body blast forward, sending my body onto the Core.
My hoof touched it. The world slowly broke apart, piece by piece. Blackness into lightness. My body reformed into my current state and I felt the pain. This is gonna suck!
Tank reached around, grabbing his saddlebags. Mystic snuggled up against Tank for warmth, rain surrounded the ground with wetness. It felt wrong to have somepony sleeping next to you. Especially, somepony you barely know.
He still felt weird about Deadshot playing with him in the cell. She doesn't even know him, and kissed him. Tank shook away the thought, arising from slumber. He gently got up, not wanting to wake the pale mare sleeping next to him.
Its been weeks and Deadshots dot is still out. Is she really dead? Maybe the guard caught her and killed her? Tank slipped on his armor, strapping his helmet on.
He slid his saddlebags over his back, shifting it around. Once it found a comfortable position, Tank pulled out a holonote and began writing.
Pinning it onto a tree, he wrapped Mystic in a blanket and left. He needed to find Deadshot. The rain poured around him as he walked towards the City.
Mystic stretched, feeling a warm cloth around her. She opened her eyes and noticed Tank was gone. She sat up, readying her magic, along with her horn powering up.
She relaxed when she saw a holonote strapped onto a nearby tree. She trotted over to it, mud wetting her hooves. She reached the tree, ripping off the note and read it.
Mystic,
I left to find Deadshot. I need to find out if she is alive or not. I won`t be gone too long. I hope.
You can move or stay, either your choice. If you move, me and Deadshot, if she`s alive, will find you.
Tank.
Mystic slipped the note into a pocket. Is she alive? Her dot has been gone for weeks. Maybe the guard killed her? Mystic placed her round-like helmet on. She started walking towards the City, hoping to find Tank; and hopefully, Deadshot.
I shifted around in my blanket, the itching warmness bugging me. I ripped off the blanket, flying over to the corner of the room. I sat on my haunches, pressing buttons on my helmet. The radio turned on, playing a rather catchy song. I placed my helmet down, letting the music play in the air.
It`s been a couple of months since I died. I tried staying away from Everypony, as much as I could. As far as I know, Tank and Mystic probably gave up on looking for me. Good. I tapped my cyber leg, the metal making a clink.
It felt wrong having one of my limbs missing, it least I could walk. My wings are healing, but still fucked up. The fall broke my ear, making me deaf in my left ear. I haven`t got messed up since then.
The song ended and another song came on, replacing the catchiness with slow cello. I stood up, grabbing my helmet. I slid the mask on, the strapping in. I pulled my hood on, my cape at the end of it.
I hesitated. I took off the helmet, shoving it into my saddlebags. I pulled out my picture of Mom. Her mane was dark blue, her coat black. She was always the prettiest of us two. I smiled. I haven`t smiled for a while, no reason to. I slipped it back in, strapping my saddlebags.
I always worked alone. I never had anypony follow me, or follow them for that matter. But, I feel alone. Ever since Mom died, I just felt alone. Alone, in this unforgiving world. Hopefully I can find them. And maybe the Core as well...
Author's Note
