A back stab from the capital

A back stab from the capital

“Mr. President we have a man out here who goes by the name ‘John’. He said you had a job for him?”

“Yes bring him in and make sure no one is with him I wish to speak with him alone. Understand?”

The door opens and a large man is standing in the doorway of the oval office. He has on camo cargo pants, a tight black shirt with tribal tattoos on both arms.The door shuts behind him.

“My old friend Please sit down, have a drink we have pressing matters to... umm... talk about if you are still interested? Maybe you have a few friends you work with that can help you?”

John sat down at the end of the Presidents sentence and picked up a drink that was poured for him.

“Yes sir I am and I have no friends. I would like to keep it that way, people that are ‘friends’ are liabilities, one other thing just because i did some work for you before does not make you my friend. You are just my employer nothing more.”

“But of course,whatever you want to call me, by the way you have a wife am I right? You have good looks, so maybe a few kids?”

“No sir, I live my life alone, there is no time for people like that.”

“Well I’m sorry to hear that. Do you have any family what-so-ever?”

“I want to talk about a job and the numbers that follow or I walk!”

“Ok, ok, ok, calm down. I’m just making small talk.”

The door opens abruptly, “I heard yelling is every thing ok in here?”

“God damn it, can I not have a fucking conversation with out you butting in?! Get out of my office before I pay John to put you out of your misery!”

“And you told me to calm down.”

The door shuts faster then it opened. John was the first to break the silence.

“Back to business uhhh... What is the job and how much are we talking?”

“We have an eye on this cave that has been sending strange magnetic waves to the scientist outside the area. I want you to go in and see what is going on in there.”

“Ok thats sounds easy... What’s the pay?”

“I will give you 58 thousand. 29 thousand now for supplies and the other 29 thousand after the job is done.”

“Thank you for your business.” John said as he took the check from the President.

John arrived to the cave in just a few days after getting the supplies needed for his exploration. A few guns, some rope, and a few sticks of dynamite.

He walked into the laboratory and the scientist looked at him in confusion. He stares them

down as he makes his way to the exit that led into the cave. He walks in as the door slammed behind him with a loud bang. It was silent. He begins to walk down the erie hallways of the cave. He examined every inch of it to see what was going on but there was nothing, just a long cave system. The more he walked the more he noticed that something wasn't right, the walls changed almost instantly. John stopped for a bit leaning on one of the walls and thinking about what he had found. He started feeling a vibration from the wall as if someone was walking down the hallway. John gets up from his rest and walks toward where he felt the vibrations come from. He spotted four men with guns.

“Well, well, well, what do we have here boys? A lost man perhaps?” The man said turning away from his group.

“The only thing that will be lost is your bodies after I’m through with you.” He pulls his pistol out of his holster and examines his magazine. “You see, the higher ups brought a notorious mercenary down here to deal with weaklings like you.” He chuckles lightly. “So I suggest leaving before someone gets hurt.” John looks up to stare the man in his eyes.

“So this is the fella thats on the kill list for today? Are you perhaps John Darson?”

“How do you know my name?”

“Well you see I'm a merc, like you, but better.”

“We will see about that.”John said as he pulls the trigger to his gun and kills the man behind the leader.

John jumped behind some rocks for cover, shots are fired from both sides one bullet hits John in the arm as he comes out to kill the last guy. The man starts to say his name but is stopped by a gun put in his mouth.

“I dont care who you are 'cause in the end, you're a dead man anyways.” John almost pulls the trigger when one of the dead mens' radio went off, the voice on it sounded very familiar to him.

“Is it done? Is he dead? I want that portal to be a secret for the U.S, if we found it I'm sure other countries have to and I don't want that prick getting it for them!”

John realised who it was and looked at the man that still had the gun in his mouth.
“So this is what I get for trying to help out the leader of our country.” He smiles and pulls the trigger blowing the man's brains all over the wall.

“Lets go find me a portal.” John smiles once more and gave a bit of a chuckle as he puts up his gun.

He walks down the hall where the men came from, he thinks to himself “If they were looking for me there might be more out there. I have got to stay on my toes.”

After a few long hours of looking, John finds a strange blue orb. He touches it, it starts to suck him in, not knowing what to do he tries to pull his hand out but it just gets sucked in deeper. After a few minutes of vigorous struggling he gives up and lets the blue orb ingulf him. After being blinded by a bright light John can see again but he is no longer in the cave. He is outside on top of a hill looking down at a beautifully colored town.

“Where the hell am I? What is this place?” He starts to walk toward the town hoping to find a doctor to help with his wound, but he is stopped by a different colored orb that he accidentally bumped into “Not again...” he gets sucked back into another portal but this time he is teleported into what seemed to be a throne room, as he regained his vision he saw a unnaturally white pony with armor on.

“Where am I?” he said standing up and holding his head. "What is this place?”

“This is the throne room of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna speak your name now!”

“What, who said that? And Princess, what, and who?”

The pony in front of him hit him in the knee and John fell. “Ahhh!!! Damn it you fucking horse!”

“I am a pony, not a horse, and I am one of the princess’ royal guards”

“Oh yeah, thats cool, wait! What?! A talking horse what the hell is going on!” John looks around “What the hell is with all this pink?!” he gets up and starts walking around franticly “I died didn't I, and this is hell!? Ughhhh, I never thought hell would be this bad! I'm going insane!”

“Its not that pink in here” The white pony was sitting there enjoying what was going on, laughing hysterically, till he felt a hoof on his head.

“Oh sorry your highness! Here is the creature you sent me for.” The pony said as he bowed to her.

“So are you the one they call John?” A majestic white alicorn said.

John turns around still confused about the situation he is in. “What are you a unicorn?
Oh man this day is just getting worse. I have no idea what is going on anymore!”

“Hey calm down! In the presence of a princess you should bow!” The white pony tried to hit John in the knee again but he saw it coming. He kicked the pony in the face and he slid across the room.

“I bow to no one, especially, not to a fucking horse!” He looked her in the eyes with a straight face. She glared at him for a few minutes.

“We can use you in my Royal guard.” The white Alicorn said walking to her throne.

“No, I am a mercenary do you know what that means?” Frustration was in his voice now.

“You work for the highest bidder. Am I right?”

“That's right.”

“Well, I can make you an offer you can't refuse. My name is Princess Celestia by the way.”

“And I am-” He was cut off before he could finish what he was saying.

“I know who you are. I'm the one that brought you here in the first place.”

“Why?”

“I need your help,” The Princess said with a sad look on her face. ”You see my sister was taken and nopony can find her. She means the world to me and she is my closest friend.”

“This is why I have no friends. They get in the way and are liabilities, but I get where you're coming from so I’ll tell you what. I’ll do it for half the price I would charge, sound good?”

“Thank you so much John I can't thank you enough!!” Celestia said as she ran up and gave him a hug.

He slowly began to put his arms around her and completed the hug. The white pony that got kicked in the face woke up from being knocked out. He had blood running down his face.

The two stopped hugging. "We'll talk numbers later. But for now we have to do something about your appearance. This just won't do."

“What about it, I look fine.”

“Yeah to you, but to everypony else it would frighten them. So we have to change you into a pony!”

“Umm, do what now?”

“Yes you heard me right, so what kind of pony would you like to be?”

“What can I be?”

“Well there is the pegasi, the unicorn, or the earth pony. Pegasi can fly around and rest on clouds, the unicorn can use magic that can help you with your weapons and the..” she was stopped before she could say anymore.

“I want to fly!” John said with a bit of excitement in his voice.

“Your wish is my command,” she said jokingly. "But what about your weapons?" She paused and looked at him.

"I'll figure that out." He said with a smile. She nodded.

Her horn started to glow yellow. John closed his eyes, it was too bright for him.
“Ugh, it hurts a bit” he started to gasp for air and with another flash and a small explosion John was sent flying across the room.

“You never said it was going to hurt!”

“Quit complaining. It couldn't have hurt any worse the wound you had.”

"How'd you heal the wound?" He asked looking for the bullet hole.

“Because I have powers to do so."

"How can I hold and use my guns?" She looked at him in confusion. "I assume you mean the metal things lying on the floor over there?" He nodded. "Yes these are guns." He said as he picked one up in his mouth.

“Are we done here now that you learned what guns are?”

“Yes now go.” Celestia pointed to the door. “Go to a small town called ponyville and meet with my small friends, you will know them when you see them. They are the liveliest ponies there. They might all be gathered in the library, go there first. Oh, I almost forgot don't use your real name from now on your name is…umm… Razer… yes that’s it! Razer now go with haste!”
