Injection

Authors notes: The last chapter was rushed, for this I apologize. I have also realized a lack of comments however, constructive criticism is the key factor for my stories, if I plan to maintain quality,  I want to keep chapters in check and story in line.

As I saw the redneck pony (whom I assumed was redneck because of her hat), my initial reaction was run. Ironic when you think about it, the asshole who bit off more than he could chew with 20 fully trained guards, running away from a horse.

I took into account that these horses probably wanted nothing more than my death. They saw me as a threat probably and I couldn’t blame them, I’m guessing they didn’t know what syringes or guns were, so they just assumed from my sword and bowie knife.

I limped as fast as I could running away from the mare (I took a class on horses as a child, that was the only reason I knew gender names), as she trotted up to her crying friend, shooting me a glare that I will not forget, a glare that sucked the soul out of me, a glare that said “you’re going down if you even touched her.”.

I pulled out my Bowie knife, pointed it at her and gripped it firmly at my hand, despite being far away from her, I felt ready to stab her from the instant she ran up to me. Bad move on my part.

She ran like lightning, her hat not even coming off. I yelled and limped forward with my all my speed, she kicked me right where she obviously knew it would hurt, my bandaged ankle.  I fell to the ground, aching and screaming with pain, it felt worse than it did when I first was hit by the baton, a burning fire on an already scorched tree. I felt a tear trickle down my cheek.

Despite this I got back up and the next time she tried to kick me, I stepped to the side and grabbed her by the ankle.

After flipping her over I started limping away, that was when the mare yelled out words that made me feel the need take out my Remmington off of my back, load it, and blow her brains out.

“And don’t you let me find you on Sweet Apple Acres, none either.”, I was just threatened, by a goddamn horse. She looked over to her friend.

“Pinkie Pie, what did that there psycho do to you anyway?” the mare asked.

Pinkie, I guessed her name was, just sat there and sobbed before yelling, “He said he didn’t want a party thrown for him!”

I raised an eyebrow and shouted, “What is that? Some kind of goddamn crime here!”

“IT IS WHEN IT’S ONE OF PINKIE’S!” I heard a voice yell before I looked up to see a blue pegasus, with a rainbow mane (wow this world just kept getting more and more ridiculous).

I stood in awe at the site of it. Majestically flying through the air, and gracefully landing on three hooves, holding one out to, shake my hand?

“Well put er’ there.” She said, I reached out and grabbed the hoof before gently shaking it. “Name’s Rainbow Dash, I saw you back there totally owning Applejack and I couldn’t help but like your style.”

The orange mare with the hat spoke up and interrupted.

“Well I got a good hit on him.” She grumbled.

A purple unicorn walked in before I started slowly limping away.

“Hold it y’all, now where do you think you’re going.” Applejack spoke up. I turned and merely sighed, before turning back and starting onward again.

I went through a lot of crap today, and I couldn’t really believe they didn’t notice that from the bandage, I pulled out my shotgun and guessed I would explain.

“See this, I’m gonna use this to get me some meat, I need food.” I said aloud, my normal cocky tone of voice now gone, I now realized this was a matter of survival.

“Hold on, you’re just gonna go out there, kill an animal, skin it, and then eat it raw?” The purple unicorn asked.

“That’s the plan, besides I thought horses were vegetarians, what would you know about eating meat.”  I said.

Twilight spoke up, “My friend Spike is a dragon, he has had meat before, and usually he cooks it.”

“Well there most likely isn’t an oven for miles. Raw meat is probably the best food I could get.” I spoke up, bad move on my part again, long story short, Applejack offered me apples, Pinkie Pie offered me Cupcakes, Twilight offered me a book on what plants were poisonous and what weren’t, and Rainbow Dash offered me a lift towards the Everfree forest, saying it was good hunting ground, on the condition that I took down an “Ursa Major”.

I took Rainbow Dash’s offe

r, which the others apparently started calling me crazy for taking.

When we got to the Ursa Major’s cave, I took out my shotgun and got ready for battle, ready to blow whatever little piece of crap was in there to bits, the situation I had gotten into was literally much bigger than I had expected. To wake it up I shot one round into the air, The beast awoke, that was when I saw it, it stood 50 ft tall, smaller than Godzilla, but bigger than a building, I wasn’t going to back down, for two reasons, I’m a man of my word, and I like biting off more than I can chew.

I limped as fast as I could around the cave, letting the bastard chase me, eventually I knew its weak point, I shot it in the eye and it recoiled back, it didn’t do much but it was enough to piss it off apparently, it picked me up and literally swallowed me whole.

As I fell into its throat, I did the one thing I could do, I used my knife to slow down my fall, of course it wasn’t a deep enough cut to kill the beast, but I knew what I was doing.

When I reached the collar bone, I pulled the knife out of the beast and was much more in control of my fall.

Now let me tell you they don’t call me Injection for nothing, as I fell I reached on to one of its blood vessels and climbed my way to the heart, where I then pulled out a syringe and stuck it in the beast heart, injecting a mixture of liquified lead and mango into the beast’s blood cells as the beating of the heart tried to push me off, I had done it, I heard the creature start coughing, before the beating heart that was trying to push me then stopped, I then heard the beast fall to the ground, it was over, I had won.

Authors notes: In the next chapter, we see the real adventure unfold, and you will see where Fluttershy was during all of this.
