Fallout: New Pegasus

BANG! I shot an empty Sunset Sarsaparilla bottle, shattering the the glass bottle into uncountable sparkling pieces. It was the fifth bottle in a row the I shattered from whatever distance we where at.

"Damn," said the charcoal-coated unicorn mare next to me. "How far away are we, dude,"

I pulled the scope of the gun that mare gave me. I could barely make out the shape of the bottles half because of the sand and half because of the distance. I tried to do the math but I truly had no clue, still the math was easier to do than remembering my own name at times.

"I don't have the slightest clue," I finally said. I looked up to the mare who was with me, she looked truly beautiful, she could have easily been the post-apocalyptic version of the rarely seen mare for the Ministry of Image. No Bullet Storm you can't think about her like that. Remember the curse? But she's just so hot. Wait am I having an argument,with myself in my own head? The mares name was Sunfire, Doc sent me to look for her, after i got all my things.

"Hey i got a job if your up for it," Sunfire said pulling me out of some fantasies of how many ways and places that i could, OK, not thinking about that.

"Sure whats the job," I asked hoping that it wasn't having to do a lot of traveling. I had lost a lot of blood when I got shot in the face by Poker Chip. "I'll do it so long as I don't have to travel over 50 miles to finish it, I'd like to keep all my blood in me,

"No, it shouldn't be more than two or three miles, and we'll just be clearing geckos from some wells that brings water to Meadow Springs. It should be a walk in the park, We'll be back before supper,"

"FUCK, FUCK, FUCK. OH DEAR CELESTIA FUCK ME BRUTALLY IN THE ASS WITH YOUR HORN," I screamed as I fired the the varmint rifle blindly over my shoulder at the pack of Giant Geckos that gathered behind me.

"Just turn around and fight them, it's not that many Bullet Storm." Sunfire yelled at me as I rolled out of the way of a gecko that got in front of me.

"If it's so fucking easy you do," I yelled back using my rife as a club to bash a small geckos head in. "I don't have any melee weapons if you have noticed,"

Oh fuck it I though and turned to face the geckos chasing me. Apparently I took out a 5 of the original 9 following me. As I stopped the first gecko jumped out me. The over-sized lizard must have jumped over a yard and a half to get close to me. I ducked down and side stepped to avoid getting a face full of gecko and its poison. I hit the gecko in the back of the head with the butt if my rifle. I then pulled the rifle out of my magical field with my mouth by the barrel while spinning and hitting the next gecko out of the air and square in the temple. The next gecko landed on top of me knocking the rifle out of my mouth. I was on my back facing pushing the radiation monster out of my face with my fore hooves. I was desperate for someone to the get the creature off me, I did this Buck-up move the forced me into a sort of somersault knocking the gecko on the ground with my hind hooves smashing the gecko's head under me.

The last gecko then just looked at me as if sizing me up. It was a different color from the rest. I was a deep crimson red with black stripes running down its back and arms.

"Your move," I goaded, wrong move. The moment I said that the gecko opened its mouth and let forth a ball of fire. No fair I thought. The fire singed my mane a good amount.

"Hey Fucker, I was growing that out," I yelled at it. I was about to the charge the fire breathing gecko, when a loud BANG rang out and a bullet flew by my check. The bullet landed right in between the eyes of the fiery-mouthed gecko. I whipped my head head around to see Sunfire's gun levitating down from her eye.

"You lied. You said that this would be a walk in the park," I said jokingly as I picked up my rifle from where I dropped it.

"It was, wasn't it?"

"Sure if that park is a radioactive mega-spell crater"

"If you say so,"

"Can we just go back to town before something it gets dark and something decides that we look like a tasty dinner and dessert?" I asked. Having grown up alone in the post-war Marehove desert you learn to get somewhere either brightly light or structurally secure because of all the nocturnal hunters that where huge dangerous and hungry.

"Yeah we should probably hurry too night well be falling soon,"

We walked back to town in silence for a little while, it was about a mile walk form the well we just cleared out. I don't know what Sunfire was thinking about, but i was trying to figure out what hand guns to my knowledge could even fire scatter shot or if the bullet just broke when it went through my head. I then remembered that Doc said that a robot brought me into his house and asked he to help me. I wonder if anyone else heard the gunshot or saw the people who tried to kill me I thought to myself.

"Hey Sunfire, Did you hear anything or see anyone strange the night I was shot?" I asked finally breaking the silence.

"No, but I Salty Martini did have them in her bar for a bit, but that's all I know,"

"Okay, what about the robot that brought me to Doc's place, do you know where I can find him?"

"Post Office maybe, but I think he's almost always out,"

"Cool thanks," Just then a purple filly came running up to us. She was gasping for breath and looked scared out of her mind.

"Sunfire, it's Korn Kobb he's asking about the guy who was in the old gas station.

"O.K. Where is he now?"

"Salty's. He's threatening to burn down the whole town if we don't give him up!"
