Death City

I’m finally back with another update. Sadly, my laptop hasn’t came through yet and is still broken. This next chapter will focus on Snake in the Ark, chosen by none other than Timefather 64. With that, let us begin.

Chapter 11 – The Weapon of The Century

“Uggg, my head.” Snake said to himself wearily, rubbing his forehead with his front hoof. As he began to open his eyes, he found himself to be the only one in the entire area around him. “Am I in the Ark?” He asked himself. Snake then began to get up on all fours an look at his surroundings. He had found that he was in one of the many hallways in the Ark. To his left was a stainless steel wall with countless doors implanted onto them. To his right were windows slanted outward, showing the darkness of space outside of him. Just by that, Snake knew that he was in the Ark. “Heh.” He mumbled to himself. “When Fluttershy said this place was gonna be enormous, she wasn’t taking shit.” The green Pegasus had no clue what to do next since he was separated from the rest of his group, so he began exploring the space prison, keeping a tight grip on his weapon in case of any sudden danger. As he began to walk down the lengthy corridor, he stooped in his tracks to see what was a metallic vault in front of him. “Seriously, poinies said trying to find your way through the Ark was impossible, and yet I’ve only been here for 30 buckin’ seconds and I’ve already found where they store the prison’s valuables.” Snake said aloud. Afterwards, he began galloping towards the vault before anypony could see him. Once there, he then stood on his back two hooves and placed his back and head against the wall, a few inches to the left from the vault. Snake then put his ear towards the combo as he began spinning the lock both left and right, making it land on random numbers. When just a little colt, his parents had sent him to military school to build up characteristics and bravery, where he learned to fight and defend. He even learned a few tricks like how to pick luck by just using your ear and hoof.

All of a sudden, a click noise went off from the other side of the door, causing the door to open automatically. As the vault door opened, Snake began trotting into the room, expecting to see a bunch of bits and trophies and golden statues, but all he saw was a longer hallway leading to another vault on the opposite side of the hallway. “What kind a trick is this?!” A furious yet confused Snake asked himself. As he began trotting towards the other side of the hallway, a thin red laser made its way onto Snakes neck, revealing a small red dot.

Suddenly, the laser turned yellow, triggering the rest of the lasers in front of him to become activated. The red alarm implanted onto the high corner of the wall suddenly went off as it began glowing bright red, followed by the loud shriek of an alarm.

“What the..” Snake said as he soon realized that he had just stepped hoof first into one of the Ark’s many traps. Suddenly, guards of all shapes and sizes began charging towards him, each of them carrying some sort of weapons and high tech armor.

“Motherbucker.” Snake cursed towards himself. As the guards began to close in on him, Snake did the first thing that  came to mind. He leaped into the air above the guards and expanded his wings, allowing him to fly and soar through the air. The guards soon became confused as their main target had just disappeared in a blink of an eye.

“W-where did he go?!” A scared security guard asked. “WHERE DID THAT BASTARD GO?!” All of a sudden, as if on cue, the security guard to the back of the group had fell to the floor unconscious, a large bump formed onto his head. As the rest of the guards turned to see where the sound came from, they located the unconscious soldier as well as Snake attached to the wall, wings expanded, holding a frying pan by the handle in his mouth.

“After him!” Another guard demanded, extending a hoof in the direction of Snake. Soon, the rest of the guards began charging towards him. The only option left for Snake now was to maneuver his way out. Using the wall as a jump start, he flung off the wall and glided through the air, avoiding all the guards charging towards him in the process. Having perfect speed and agility, Snake was able to doge not only the guards themselves, but also their attacks too. As Snake made his way to the other side of the hallway, he quickly began climbing upwards. The guards had realized what Snake was trying to do, so they began to huddle up in case the intruder decided to do anything funny. To their surprise, he did, and was successful doing so. As he made his way to the roof of the hallway, Snake quickly looked below him to make sure he was right above the guards. Foolish enough for him, the guards didn’t know where he was at the time, making it easier for Snake to knock them all out. Snake began charging up all his energy. His hoofs bending downward towards the ceiling. His wings slowly flapping to the breeze. Once ready, Snake launched himself as hard as he could towards the guards. When eye level with them, Snake quickly began circling the group, leaving the guards in a green tornado created by none other than Snake.

“W-what the” One of the guards said aloud. As Snake zoomed around the group faster and faster, a loud crashing sound could be heard, followed by a thumping noise. Another guard had just bitten the dust. The sound continued as one by one each guard began falling to the floor. Snake had been speeding around, whacking each of the guards with his frying pan, knocking them out. This continued until there was only one guard left. The guard began to slowly back away in fear. Snake suddenly stopped the green tornado he had created and flew upwards till he was right above the guard.

“Here’s a little tip whenever you engage in combat with any other pony.” Snake said to the last guard standing. “Never mess with Snake.” With that, Snake closed in on the last guard and shoved the pan onto his head, literally cracking his skull wide open, ending his life.

Once Snake had reached the ground on all four, with his head turned down in a somewhat epic fashion, he began to get up and dust himself off as if he had slid to home base in baseball. Once done, he then turned around to see all the damage he had committed in his first few minutes of the Ark. “What fool would even think of going up against the all mighty and humble Snake.”  He said before making a beeline towards the end of the hallway, where the other unopened vault laid. Snake had done the same exact maneuver as he did before to open the previous lock. After opening, Snake had stepped inside the vault, only to be taken aback at what he saw.

The walls were covered with all different sorts of guns on them. Ak47s, machine guns, hand guns, shot guns. You name it, they had it. Scattered on the ground were all different sorts of ammo and explosives. There was even a tank already previously loaded with a missile sitting in the corner. Everything Snake had ever loved and wished to have was standing right in front of him. Then, a fatal question soon hit him. What would he carry with him and what would he leave behind. The question sting in his head harder than a queen bee. Snake wanted the most heaviest damage making equipment, without going overboard in weight.

Snake began trotting around the room slowly, closely examining the weapons one by one. He wanted to make sure the weapons were good enough for him personally to handle. Picking the right weapon wasn’t like picking out a flavor of ice cream in an ice cream in an ice cream shop. It was much more advanced. You have to look for preciseness as well as accuracy and distance, not to mention its power and ability to reload. While trotting around the room, looking for the right weapon, Snake wasn’t looking in front of him as to where he was going, and as a result hit the glass was in front of him, or that’s what he thought. It was actually a glass case that he had ran into. Snake collapse over himself and fell to the floor. As he rubbed his head and began to look up, he was stunned by what he saw in front of him. Inside the glass case was  the perfect weapon. The weapon that would destroy this entire base. The weapon stat would show them all what he was truly made of. Reaching for the weapon in the container, he soon realized that the only thing separating him from the weapon was the glass in between the two. Quickly, Snake began looking for something to smash the glass with, but was dumbfounded when he realized that he could have used the frying pan gripped onto his back. Taking control of the pan with his mouth, Snake made one quick swing with the frying pan, shattering the glass in front of him, sending tons of glass shards airborne towards Snake. Using his quick wits, snake averted every single shard without taking the slightest bit of damage. Once regaining balance again, Snake dropped the frying pan out of his mouth and began making his way to the already broken case. After approaching it, he carefully lifted his head into the case, avoiding all the leftover shards stuck to the glass around the case. Snake gently bit the strap of the weapon and carefully pulled it back out, trying as hard as possible not to drop it. Once he got it out of the case, Snake began examining the weapon closely, looking at its fine crafting and sentimental details. “Hell yeah.” Snake said to himself, putting on the strap to the weapon. Apparently, the weapon had been painted gold over it, giving it a nice shiny finish. “This will show them who’s the real boss around here.” Snake began testing the weapon by practicing aiming with it. He then realized that he had no ammo for the weapon. As if meant to happen, the back of the case of where the weapon used to be began to shine brightly. Snake then began to turn towards the brightness, squinting hardly, trying not to go blind. The brightness soon disappeared and a note had took its place. The note read.

Directions for using the Golden Ray:

Always use precaution when handling machinery

Never dent or break the weapon

Never block the out port of the weapon

Always wear strap when in use

This machine comes with the auto load feature. Never again will you have to reload or even think about carrying separate ammo. This mystical device always generates new ammo inside of itself, letting you use the rapid fire feature.

All the way at the bottom of the note read some text that not even Snake could decode.

Always make sure that with no costs, you never …………………… The result of this will cause the fate of this machine to be uncontrollable having a mind of its own.

“What!?” Snake said to himself. Apparently the rest of the words of the note had been either cut of or burned off. Snake had no idea whether he should have taken the weapon or just chose a different weapon, but it was already too late. More guards began running down the hallway form the other end, alarming Snake. “Well, time to bail.” Snake said to himself, taking off in the opposite direction, carrying the golden ray with him. “These guards never learn their lesson, do they?” And Snake was off.

Finished with another chapter. This entire chapter was mainly a type of battle scene, and won’t be the last one of it. There will be many more in the future too, if I can get enough different types of enemies. I am still looking for new OC’s and songs as well as new enemies previously mentioned before. Speaking of songs, the song used at the beginning of this chapter was the Stardust Speedway theme from when you fight Metal Sonic in Sonic Generations (Bad Future is the title of the song). You will actually find me adding a ton of Sonic songs in this fanfic since they are very lively and go well with this story. Also, as mentioned before, I want to know what character I should do next. I’m beginning to think I should do Twilight next, but I’m not completely sure. I want to know what you guys want the next chapter to be about. With that said, I enforce you to review or get your head blown off by the golden ray. Ha.
