Fallout Equestria: Days Of Forgotten Past

BUCK" Rhythm swore for the thousand time, before kicking the door again with her back hooves causing a dull Thudsound that echoed around the tunnel. Rhythm kept kicking the door as it was her only means of a way out, she had tried leaving by the way she had come but the entrance was sealed by boulders and debris which she had found out was alot heavier then it looked, after lifting one of these boulders and moving it aside, the magic had drained her energy raising her fatigue levels. She had resolved herself to kicking the door open however so far she had only left a small dent in the steel frame, after kicking it several more times her hooves began to bleed but she was to pissed to care, finally though she was forced to stop when the pain became unbearable. She glanced down at her back hooves and started to lick them clean with some difficulty, after the bleeding had stopped she backed away slowly trying not to put too much pressure on her hind legs. Rhythm looked at the door and then remembered her spell book, she rummaged though her saddlebag and picked up her spell book, she flicked though the pages until she found the page on unlocking locked objects. She read the lines needed before focusing her energy though her horn and moved her willpower towards unlocking the doors mechanical gears that operated the lock, as she continued to use her magic nothing happened, finally she was forced to end her spell or else faint. The door was protected against unauthorised tampering it seemed and after Rhythm realised this she said her new favourite word.

"BUCK"

A Few Hours Later

Rhythm was sitting near to the door still wondering how to open it however a rumble of her tummy reminded her that she hadn't eaten all day, she rummaged into her bag before pulling out one of the loafs of break she had salvaged earlier, Rhythm then looked back at the door before back at the orb light and wondered if she could increase the light it produced, as a filly she was scared of the dark and her mother had put a similar coloured orb light so she wouldn't be scared. At the thought of her mother Rhythm started to cry wondering if she had made it to safety before the shield fell, "Celestia Keep Her safe" she prayed before getting back to the point at hoof, Rhythm gently levitated the orb light towards her and looked at it, she saw a small wheel which she turned causing the orb light to be come brighter, at its maximum brightness it illuminated the cave banishing the shadows lurking in the corner, for several seconds Rhythm's mood lifted for the first time in several hours, she put it back on its stand. Turning back to the door she had got a idea how to open it, maybe their was a spare key somewhere nearby. Rhythm looked around the cage before seeing a toolbox that had previously escaped her notice since it was in the corner of the room where the orb light previous setting had not revealed it.

Rhythm levitated the toolbox towards her still finding it hard to move much as her back hooves still hurt from her physical attack on the door, finding the toolbox unlocked she thanked Celestia for her mercy before rummaging inside. Several tools which Rhythm didn't know and a dull coloured gem were inside, she happily found the door key which was buried after a half eaten sandwich and this caused another praise to be sent to Celestia. Rhythm put the dull gem into her saddlebag but left the tools and sandwich inside, she then levitated the toolbox away and carried the key towards the door, after making sure it fitted she turned and with several creaks she pulled the door open as the door opened she came into a small room with dark earth walls, however on one side a electrical hatch was their causing Rhythm to cry out with joy.

She stepped into the room before propping open the door so she wouldn't be accidentally shut in. Rhythm saw a small computer next to the hatch which she presumed would allow it to open.

Rhythm tapped on the computer switching it from a blank screen to its hatch control which it was already on. The maintenance pony who was last here must have left the computer on sleep, "silly pony" she muttered  as she pressed the button to allow the Hatch to open and to her freedom, however a red alert came up on the screen.

Rhythm started to become pissed by these messages and pressed the No button, "come on you piece of techno-crap, I just want to open the hatch, is it really that hard?" she growled at it as it displayed another warning message.

Rhythm pressed Yes after worrying about trying to start to computer if it turned itself off, if it needed a password to log in then she would be screwed. Her thoughts were interrupted by a alarm and another message as the First hatch opened, she glanced at the message.

Inner Hatch Open

Secondary Hatch Opening in 30 seconds

Surface Hatch Opening in 90 seconds

Rhythm sighed "finally" she grumbled before looking as the Hatch opened, she moved towards it and looked upwards, she saw the Secondary hatch which was made of glass, however as the hatch opened another warning alarm went off from the computer.

Rhythm tapped her hoof as she waited for the surface hatch to open which should be in another minute, she snorted at the device as it started scanning the air again.

Rhythm rolled her eyes "wow that's deadly, air, i hope i don't get to much, then the computer started a material scan of the air

Then The Screen went blank as the computer turned itself off.

Rhythm saw the final hatch open causing a pink cloud to slowly move downwards blocking off Rhythms only Escape route.
