A new kid and a new life.
Backstory
October 6th, 1988. A young couple settled down in Ponyville. Both Pegasus. One firey maned mare and a Black maned white colt.. They were settled in the middle of town near a road dubbed 'Mane-iac Road'. It was named that because all of the drivers drove real crazy like. Inside the couples home the mare was lied back on the couch with her husbands lap right under her head. The both had their eyes locked on to the TV which was tuned to the news. The colt on screen was wearing a light red dress shirt with a microphone patch on the breast. A caption below him read 'BREAKING NEWS' in big red letters. "The princess has issued a warning for all of Equestria." The colt said. "The tension of the communist powers in Steurope is rising. We are expected to be put in to peace talks within the coming weeks." The colt kept talking but the mare looked up at her husband. "I hope this all blows over before our little bundle of joy comes." She said. "I want them to come into a world where we don't have to worry about war." The colt sighed and reached over rubbing his wifes stomach. "Everythings gonna be okay baby." He said. "Lucky we actually have an emergency plan if Equestria is ever invaded. Head directly to vault 619. Those things are impenetrable." What they didn't know is that what he said was what they were going to have to do just that.
In the dead of night months later they peeled down the road with suitcases filled with clothes and personal belongings in their jeep. They saw nothing but headlights, tail lights and other colts and mares running down the roads screaming. Some had babies in their arms. Others struggled to keep their children in sight while keeping their hands on their suitcases. Loud sirens echoed through the air. "CMON CMON!" The colt driving the couples jeep yelled. The traffic in front of him was fast but not fast enough. The mare had her hands between her legs blushing hard as a stain grew under her and on her shorts. "GOD DAMMIT!!" She yelled. "I-Im so freaked out I just pissed myself!" The colt reached over and put his hand on his wifes shoulder. "Don't worry its okay i'm sure other ponies are pissing themselves out of fear too." He said. "Just stay calm! Our kid can pick up off your emotions! Take deep breaths!" The mare nodded closing her eyes starting to breathe. It didn't take long for the large door of vault 619 to come in to view. All the cars in front of them had stopped and there were ponies scrambling for the door. They both hopped out of the vehicle and grabbed their bags and joined the fray. The colt and mare pushed their way through the crowd that was starting to build up. Most were adults and teenagers. Very few were children. When they were about 40 feet from the door the ground rumbled. The colt looked to the giant door. It was slowly rolling shut. "HONEY RUN!" He yelled pushing his wife. She looked at him. "NO YOU'RE COMING WITH ME!" She yelled back. The colt grabbed his wifes hand. "Its too late for me!" He said. "I wont make it anyways! You were always the fast one! That's the mare I fell in love with back in high school! Now go! Give our kid a good life inside!" The mare teared up and smiled nodding. She gave her husband a quick kiss before turning and bolting toward the vault her shorts still soaked with her urine. Just as the door was about to shut she dove through. She took the impact of the landing on her shoulder just as the vault closed and locked up. A bright light shown up on her. A unicorn and another Pegasus ran over and helped her up. "Ma'am? Ma'am are you alright?" The unicorn asked. The mare nodded hesitantly panting. She couldn't believe it. Her husband was gone. "From the looks of it you need a hospital." The Pegasus said. The mare sniffled and gagged a bit. "Yeah she definitely needs a hospital!" The unicorn said to the Pegasus. The Pegasus nodded just as the mare blacked out from hyperventilating.
Around 5 months later the widowed mare was being put in a hospital running through the halls with another colt pushing her on a gurney. "Come on Spitfire BREATHE!" He said as the mare on the gurney panted. Each pony around them that worked in the hospital were wearing the same kind of uniform. A red jumpsuit that had the number '619' on the back in bold lettering. The mare on the gurney- Spitfire- was sweating profusely as she kept her self from screaming her head off. Her bloated belly kept her from seeing where they were headed. "HURRY! HE'S COMING!" She screamed in pain. An earth pony mare wearing a lab coat and stethoscope joined the two by the gurney and followed them. "Don't worry miss you're almost there!" The doctor mare said. Soon they came into an open room. Where the doctor and the colt helped Spitfire transfer over to a waiting bed. The doctor picked up each of the pregnant mares legs and put them on braces to keep them in place opening up her gown revealing her ass and her vagina. A wet bulge shown through the lips of her vagina. The doctor looked under her gown and got her hands ready. "Alright miss PUSH!" She commanded. Spitfire gritted her teeth and grunted her face turning red. The colt grabbed Spitfires hand and she squeezed it hard. The colt flinched a bit as spitfire screamed. "Push baby push!" He said. Spitfire screamed and grunted as her face turned really red. Even more red than a cherry. After about a half hour of pushing and screaming Spitfire gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. Black mane. White coat and white wings. "Congratulations!" The doctor said handing Spitfire her new born child. She sniffled tears dripping down her face along with sweat. The doctor handed the colt a pair of scissors. "Does daddy wanna cut the umbilical chord?" The colt looked at Spitfire and then at the crying baby. He looked back to the doctor and sighed a bit. "...Unfortunately im not the father of him...." He said. Spitfire looked at the colt. "C'mon you big baby!" She snapped despite being in pain. "Cut the damn chord!" The colt smiled a bit and took the scissors from the doctor. He put the umbilical chord between the blades of the scissors and cut down on it. The doctor reached for the baby and took him away from his mother. "Alright let me get his little one all cleaned up and let him rest." She said. "A nurse is going to be here soon to make sure nothing tore. Please think of a name soon." Spitfire reached out toward the doctor. "Wait!" She said. The doctor looked at her. "The baby looks just like his father... I've already come up with a name... His name is Rough Ryder...." The doctor and the colt smiled. "That's a great name baby..." The colt said. "...in memory of the colt who saved your life to get in here when the bombs dropped..." The doctor sighed and turned with the baby crying in her arms. "A wonderful name indeed for little Ryder here..." She said.
About a year later Spitfire sat on a couch in a metal room. Photos of Ryder and the colt Spitfire was with were all over the wall. Ryder sat on the ground playing with toys in his vault 619 onsie. Spitfire wore a full red vault 619 jumpsuit with some work boots and a leather jacket with oil splotches. "Its a shame your new dad got bit by a Rad Roach..." She said kicking back. "...Even worse this is the 1 year anniversary of when your real dad got incinerated by the nukes... Rough Ryder... You don't know how lucky you are to be alive... I always protected you even when you were inside me... Rad Roaches are the biggest things we have here... The Overseer gave me a few things to protect you without hurting you... a crowbar to force the door if we ever get trapped inside... a baseball bat to hurt those intended to hurt you and a pittpony to keep you under my eye as I go to work... A pittpony is a special device I wear to show everything I have, look at where I am, where you are and to show what I have to do even the little things in between... By the time you get one yours might be a bit more advanced...." Ryder stacked up four blocks and knocked it over. The top block rolled towards Spitfire making her smile. "Mamas little architect... You might be a great builder one day...." She said. She then noticed her child getting on his hands and feet. She just stared thinking to herself. 'Come on Ry you can do it... I know you can...' Spitfire thought. Ryder grasped onto the table next to him and stood straight up. Spitfire gasped as she watched her son walk slowly step by step towards her. "Good job Ryry!" She said reaching her arms out. Ryder looked up at his mother and broke off from the table and wobbled a bit. He fell back onto his padded little butt and started to cry a bit. Spitfire let out a sad aw and took her jacket off revealing a longer sleeved jumpsuit than what was thought and picked her son up resting his head on her shoulder. "Don't worry Ryder... I gotcha... I always do..." She said looking at her little boy.
Years later on young Rough Ryder's 10th birthday he was being led somewhere by one of his best friends. A little filly by the name of Silver Spoon. Her mane was silver with her dark green eyes hiding behind the two shining but clear lenses of her glasses. A patch of a tiny little spoon sat on the thigh of the vault 619 jumpsuit. That was her special talent of setting out fancy cutlery. Ryder didn't have a patch on his jumpsuits thigh. One would have realized what they did well to earn the patch. They called it a Cutie Mark. It usually would appear on their thigh where the patch sat. She held his hand pulling him through the halls of the inner vault passing by other ponies who gave them both a quick smile. "Silver where are you taking me?" Ryder asked. Silver Spoon giggled. "You'll see!" She replied. "Now close your eyes! We're almost there!" Ryder sighed and clenched his eyes shut. They walked a few minutes more. Ryder started hearing different noises. Motors, laughter, and screams of enjoyment. "Alright Ry! Open your eyes!" Silver spoon said. Ryder opened his eyes and gasped seeing his mother and a few other ponies under a banner that read 'Happy Birthday' in big colorful letters. Behind them was a racetrack with other kids in go karts. "SURPRISE!" The group yelled. Spitfire walked up and hugged her son. "Happy Birthday Ryder!" She said. Ryder blushed as Silver Spoon giggled. "Thanks mom but please don't embarrass me!" He replied. Spitfire laughed a bit. "Alright but right now you go enjoy your party." She said. "I've gotta wait for someone anyways. By the way Sparky is making a special present just for you." Ryder gasped. "Uncle Sparky has a gift for me?!" He asked surprised. Spitfire smiled brightly and nodded standing up straight. She rustled her sons mane and pushed him gently towards the track, Ryder ran over to the starting line where other kids were getting out of the go-karts. Silver Spoon had already grabbed a go-kart in front. Only two karts were open. One right next to his friend and one behind her. Just before Ryder took another step toward the front kart someone pushed him to the side. "Screw off half pint this is my race!" They said. Ryder growled a bit but gasped seeing a very feared pony in the vault. A filly by the name of Scootaloo. She was a tough mare. That and because she was the overseers daughter. She had an orange pigment to her skin. Her purple mane complimented her even darker eyes. Her vault jumpsuit was ripped just about six inches from the shoulder. The patch on her thigh was a racing helmet. She hopped into the go kart next to Silver Spoon and laughed. "Some birthday boy you are!" She said. "Your a wuss!" Ryder growled and hopped in the kart behind his friend. "I'm gonna make you eat those words!" He called out. Scootaloo looked back and laughed. "You? Beat me in a race?" She said. "I'd LOVE to see a twerp like you beat me!" Ryder growled. Silver Spoon looked back at her friend. "C'mon Ry its alright! You and I can race by each other next time!" She said. Ryder didn't answer. He gritted his teeth staring Scootaloo down. Ryan then looked to the bright red light over the track. The light turned from red to yellow. It felt like a few hours to Ryder as he sat in his humming go kart. The light suddenly turned green and the squeal of tires filled the air and all the karts pulled away from the starting line. Silver spoon went to the side of the track slowing down as Ryder passed. He looked back and saw her behind him giving him a reassuring smile. Ryder smiled back and looked ahead toward the track. He saw nobody in front of him except Scootaloo. They weaved through the course fast. At one point Scootaloo hit a wall and bounced off slowing down a bit. Ryder pulled out in front and laughed. "YOU ARE NOT GETTING THIS WIN THAT EASY!" Scootaloo yelled out getting directly behind Ryder. Ryder got in front of Scootaloo each time she tried to push by. Scootaloo tail tapped Ryders kart making him swerve a bit giving the mean filly a good window to try and pull ahead. Ryder and Scootaloo were now neck and neck on the home stretch. The finish line was in sight. Suddenly Scootaloo was bumped from behind making her swerve and slow down. Ryder pulled out in front and crossed the finish line. As all the karts sputtered to a stop Scootaloo grunted getting out of her kart. Ryan got out of his and grinned looking smugly in the face of Scootaloo. "'I'd LOVE to see a twerp like you beat me in a race!'" Ryder said copycatting the filly's words. Scootaloo growled and clenched her hand into a fist. She wound up and as she followed through Ryder was pushed out of the way by someone. Scared Ryder put his hands out and clenched his eyes shut. He heard a little yelp and a little snap was heard. "Ryder!" Someone called out with the sounds of boots hitting floor. Ryder pushed himself up opening his eyes and coughed a bit from the dusty track. He looked back and saw Silver Spoon on the ground in tears with a bruise on her cheek. She held her now broken glasses in her hands. He looked to the other side of the track and saw his mother hurrying over with a few other ponies. Looked like the other ponies were Silver Spoons father and Scootaloo's mother. The Overseer. Silver Spoons father was an earth pony colt. His mane was spiked up. Skin was a light brown color. The patch on the thigh of his jumpsuit was an hourglass. Scootaloo's mother was named Cheerilee. Most ponies called her The Overseer when they reffered to her. Only in person do they call her Cheerilee. Or as the little ones called her either Mrs. Overseer or Mrs. Cheerilee. Spitfire picked her son up and hugged him. "Ryder are you alright?" She asked. Ryder looked to her and nodded shaking a bit. Mrs. Cheerilee grabbed Scootaloo's arm and dragged her away. "Scootaloo I told you not to hit anypony!" She snapped. Scootaloo growled. "MOM HE STARTED IT!" She yelled. Cheerilee sighed. "Ryder couldn't have started It!" She snapped back. "He hasn't been in trouble a day in his life! You however are going to use your allowance to pay for the fillys glasses YOU broke!" Scootaloo groaned and they went out the door into the hall. Spitfire took Ryders hand and walked with him towards the table. Silver Spoon was sat right next to him by her father. she just stared at her broken glasses sniffling. Their parents left them alone to get a few things sorted out with the overseer. Ryder hugged his sniffling friend. She instantly hugged back. "Don't worry Silver I gotcha..." Ryder said shushing her. "... Sorry Scootaloo broke your glasses... but... why would you take the punch for me...?" Silver Spoon sniffled. "...I... I took that punch... because... you had that look in your eye... the look that means you wont stop until you get it... I protected you because I care about you..." Ryder smiled and sighed. "...I care about you too Silver..." He replied. "...Thank you... I owe you one... I promise." Spitfire came back through the door with a box looking a bit worried. So did Silver Spoons father with a glasses case in hand. "Ryder!" Spitfire said alerting the two kids. Ryder broke the hug with his friend and looked to his mother as his friend was taken away towards a restroom with her father. "Ryder I am so sorry The Overseers daughter tried to hit you. I hope it didn't ruin your party." Ryder sighed and stood up hugging his mother. "Don't worry... It didn't." He replied. Some kids ran past and the little colt felt a breeze on his side. Ryder looked down at his side and saw a hole in his jumpsuit. "Oh no..." He said a bit sadly. Spitfire looked down and saw the hole. She let out a sad aw and knelt down. "You ripped your jumpsuit!" She said. "Don't worry ill have The Overseer give you a new one and-" She was cut off by a discoloration on her sons thigh. "Ryder? Are you hurt?" She asked. "I don't think I am mom." Ryder replied. Spitfire stood up and grabbed her sons hand as Silver Spoon and her father came out of the bathroom. Silver Spoon had new pair of glasses on. Almost goggle like. They had a band around them keeping them on her head. Spitfire and Ryder passed them going into the restroom. Just before the door was closed Ryder looked out and waved at Silver Spoon who was looking back at him. Spitfire closed the door and locked her son and her self inside. "Alright Ryder out of your jumpsuit!" Spitfire said. Ryder blushed a bit. "Mom I thought you weren't going to embarrass me!" He said averting his gaze. Spitfire gave him a death stare. "Jumpsuit. Off. NOW!" She snapped. Frightened by his mother he unzipped the torso of the jumpsuit and wiggled his arms out of it. He pulled the rest of the jumpsuit around his ankles. Now just in his underwear he was blushing harder than ever. Spitfire gasped. "You got your cutie mark!" She said surprised. Ryder tilted his head and looked down at his thigh. There on it sat a burning tire. His face brightened seeing his newly acquired cutie mark. "AWESOME!" He yelled. Spitfire shushed him covering his mouth. "Quiet!" She said softly. "No yelling right now. This place isn't sound proof from the inside and we don't want to get kicked out of here!" Ryder nodded before Spitfire uncovered his mouth. "Good now lets go open your presents. I would let you have your cake but someone at the bakery accidentally sold it to another pony who wanted it. Don't worry ill get one just for you and Silver Spoon to share!" Ryder smiled and hugged his mother. She giggled and pried him off. "Cmon you naked jay bird get dressed!" Ryder blushed and quickly got his jumpsuit back on. His mother helped him zip it up and she gave him a kiss on the cheek. Spitfire turned around and unlocked the bathroom and opened the door walking out with her son again. Ryder ran up to the table where Silver Spoon sat holding an ice pack to her bruised cheek. Rough Ryder sat next to her and pulled her close. "I got my cutie mark!" He whispered into her ear. Silver Spoon looked at him and smiled. "Best part of today right?" She said. Ryder shrugged as his mother pushed the box in front of him. "Happy Birthday Ryder." Spitfire said. "Your Uncle was here while you were racing. He told me to give this to you and that he said he was sorry for not wishing you a happy birthday in person." Ryder sighed a bit. "Just like Uncle Sparks to be busy." He said. "I mean he is an engineer for The Overseer." Ryder put his hands on the box and tore into it. He gasped at a shiny metal cylinder object with a black screen around 3 inches tall by 6 inches across. It was his very own Pittpony! "Awesome! I wish I was 10!" Silver Spoon said. Spitfire grabbed the Pittpony and pushed a button on it allowing it to open up on the opposite side of the screen. She took Ryders wrist and put it on snapping it closed. She then clicked another button on it and the screen lit up a bit. Words popped up on the screen reading 'PITTPONY 2000' in big blue letters. "Pittpony 2000?" Silver Spoons father said. "Your uncle must've spoke with The Overseer and have given you the latest version before it came out!" He turned to Spitfire. "Isn't it supposed to come out next month around this time?" Spitfire nodded. "Uncle Sparks really wanted you to have that." She said. She looked back inside the box and found a paper on the bottom of the box. "Ryder you missed something in there!" Rough Ryder looked in the box on his lap and reached in picking up the paper. He looked closely at the paper and saw in bold lettering 'INSTRUCTIONS' sat right on the top of the paper. Spitfire took the paper from her son and started reading them out loud. "Step one: Attatch to arm around wrist area. Check." She said. "Step two: Turn Pittpony on using button to the right of the screen. Check. Step 3: Choose a color for display. Oh that's a new one! Step 4: Turn on the Automatic Item Display. Oohh even more awesome! I have to do mine manually!" Ryder smiled and pushed a few buttons. He ended up turning the display on the screen to a red color and then it showed he had an empty box. "Woah how'd you do that?" Silver Spoon asked. Ryder shrugged and laughed. Spitfire turned a dial on the Pittpony and it showed the condition of Ryder's whole body. It appeared that his arm was bruised. "Well that'll heal up here soon." Spitfire said. She smiled at her son when Ryder hugged her.
Years after that just after Ryder had turned 18 he was sitting in his room reading an old comic book. Ryder's mane was longer and a little scar sat vertically just below his eye. Inside his room sat old posters from the world before the vault. 'Metallicolt' posters and even some video game posters such as 'Call of Cutie Equestrian Warfare' and 'Left 2 Die' sat on his walls. The metal door across the room slid open and in came Spitfire. Her mane was a little longer as well and it was tied in a pony tail. Ryder lied back on his bed still reading his comic book. "Mom I told you not right now!" He said. "Your new Pittpony can wait! I'll teach you how to use it after i'm done with this comic!" Spitfire laughed and sat on his bed taking his comic away. "It's not about my new Pittpony!" She said setting the comic down on the nearby desk. "You my boy are due to see The Overseer for your SCAR exam!" Ryder groaned about it. The SCAR exam is a test that everyone must take that tells them what their job is in the vault. "Ma can't I take that test some other time!?" Ryder said sitting up. Spitfire stood up and yanked her son up by his arm. "No Ryder you cant get out of this again!" She snapped. "She told me if you didn't take this exam you'd spend time in the Vault 619 Prison until you do take the SCAR." Ryder groaned again. Spitfire smacked him in the forehead. "MOM!" He snapped. Spitfire put her hand over her sons mouth. "Hush Ry!" She said. "By the way your little friend Silver Spoon is waiting for you! She has to do the test too! She's right outside so hurry up now!" Ryder quickly sprang to his feet. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?" He said grabbing a black baseball cap. He put his cap on with just a tuft of his mane sticking through the snap back of the cap. He hurried out of his room and saw his friend sitting on the couch in the metallic box that was his living room. Silver Spoon had the same style glasses she had after Ryder'ss 10th birthday. Ryder couldn't help but notice her chest bulging a bit over her crossed arms. "There you are!" Silver Spoon said getting up. Ryder looked up and blushed a little. "Sorry I was having a little trouble with my Pittpony." He said. Silver raised her eye brow giving him a questionable look. "Yeah. Did that Pittpony have pictures of a sword wielding unicorn with a shield cutie mark?" She said. Ryder perked up and looked behind him to see his mother dangling his comic book between her index finger and thumb. Ryder sighed and shook his head looking back to Silver Spoon who had a smug grin on her face. She giggled and hugged her friend patting his back. "Don't worry you'll get this back after you take the SCAR!" Spitfire said tossing her sons comic on the table. Ryder gave his mother a dirty look as Silver Spoon broke the hug and took his hand. She pulled him out the door and down the hall. Ryder looked down the hall taking his hand from Silver Spoon shoving it in his pocket. "Ryder come on please don't be like this." Silver Spoon said. Ryder huffed and gazed at his friend. "Sorry..." He said. "... My mom has just been on my case since some kid tried leaving the vault. My mom knows id never leave the vault. I always tell myself to never ever leave the vault. Not even if my mother asked me to leave the vault." Silver Spoon sighed. "Haven't you ever thought about what's outside the vault?" She asked. "The Overseer actually showed me something from the outside of the vault. A Radroach. She told me it was from outside the vault reeking havoc on any other creature affected by the radiation from the bombs. I imagined the outside of the vault as a gigantic dark burned area where the creatures are as huge and ugly as the Radroach." Ryder started imagining his own outside of the vault. But... instead of a landscape he saw nothing but darkness around a gigantic metal door. "I'm actually not sure what even is outside the vault... this is all I know..." He said hanging his head in sadness. "I really would love to know what the world was like before the bombs dropped. My mom never told me what it was like before the vault was closed on her. I want to know what it would've been like if we hadn't been born inside of this vault." Silver Spoon turned the corner with her friend. They stopped in their tracks seeing three ponies each in a black leather jacket. One had the sleeves cut off. The pony who wore it was a familiar Pegasus filly. All three leather wearing ponies were fillies in fact. They were leaning on the walls talking with each other. A yellow earth pony filly with a red mane looked over and saw Ryder and Silver Spoon. "Well well well... What do we have here Scootaloo?" She said. The familiar ripped sleeved Pegasus looked over and it was definitely Scootaloo. A pink and purple maned unicorn filly and the other two fillies stood side by side in the hall blocking their path. Scootaloo walked forward. "Looks like someone is a little lost." She said. She raised a hand and snapped her fingers. "Sweetie Belle! Applebloom! Tell them about the 'toll' they have to pay to walk through Crusader territory." Their little group was called The Crusaders. They made their group on the count of they all got their cutie marks at the same time. Applebloom was supposed to be the muscle of the group. Her older brother taught her how to handle herself incase anyone gave her trouble. He taught her that stuff after they lost their parents to RadScorpions luckily taken down by the Vault 619 Security force. Not to mention her older sister helped her build up her strength by doing a little heavy lifting. Sweetie Belle, the brainy unicorn filly, handled all the money within the Crusaders. She paid her sister to make the leather jackets for the gang. That and to stay quiet about what they did. Applebloom grabbed Ryder and pinned him to the wall. Silver Spoon stood frozen in fear. She never experienced the feeling of being near all three of the Crusaders. Ryder growled and tried prying Appleblooms hands off his jumpsuit seeing Sweetie Belle pin his friend to the other wall. "Ooh a feisty one!" Applebloom said chuckling. She looked over to Scootaloo. "I could use a hand with this big boy!" Before Scootaloo even stepped forward Ryder brought his boot up and kicked Applebloom off. He quickly went to Sweetie Belle grabbing her and then whipping her to the ground. "YOU STAY AWAY FROM MY FRIEND!" Ryder yelled. He looked back at Silver Spoon as he blocked The Crusaders from her as they recovered. "What is going on here?!" Someone said coming from behind The Crusaders. Scootaloo let out a small muffled yelp as her friends ran off around the corner from where Ryder and Silver Spoon came from. Scootaloo hesitantly turned around and saw her mother standing there looking a bit ticked. "M-Mom?!" She said scared backing up a bit. Before the Pegasus girl could turn and run Ryder got in front of her and grabbed her wrist. "I got her Mrs. Cheerilee!" He said. The Overseer smiled and grabbed her daughters free wrist. "Young lady you are coming with me!" She snapped trying not to slap her daughter. She looked to Ryder who had went back to Silver Spoon who shook scared. "Thank you Ryder. Are you two okay? She didn't hurt you did she?" Ryder looked over and shook his head still consoling his friend. "Her friends tried taking our money but I didn't let them get a single bit!" He said. "We were just coming to take the SCAR when they stopped us. I know my mother told me to never hit a filly but I was just protecting her!" He looked to Silver Spoon as she cried softly into his shoulder. The Overseer snapped her fingers in her daughters face and pointed down the hall. She didn't say anything for Scootaloo to run down the hall. Mrs. Cheerilee turned back to Ryder and his friend. "I understand you were protecting her." She said resting a hand on the Pegasus colts shoulder. "If one of those fillies tell your mother just bring her to me and ill explain everything. Why don't you come with me and we can get the test done and over with!" Ryder gave a bit of a smile and nodded. Almost an hour later Ryder and Silver Spoon were standing in line with other colts and mares right the front of a classroom with about twelve smaller desks in it. The big desk they were lined up at was the desk of The Overseer. She sat behind the desk looking at each test paper. Ryder and Silver Spoon were the last two in line and they looked better than earlier. Ryder looked to his friend as they moved up a few steps. "What job skill do you think you're going to get?" He asked. Silver Spoon looked back at him. "I was hoping to get engineer." She said. "Just like your uncle right Ryder?" Ryder smiled a bit and nodded. He looked to his own test paper. "My mom said I could probably do what she does and be a mechanic for all the generators and stuff." He replied. "Just hoping I get that lucky..." Silver Spoon giggled just as she got up to Mrs. Cheerilee. "Don't worry you'll get it!" She said. "I believe in you!" Ryder smiled and blushed a bit as his friend handed The Overseer her paper. The leading mare read over the test paper and then set it in a pile next to her with other tests. "Well Miss Spoon it looks like you'll be a Technician!" She said. "Who knows you might be inventing the next Pittpony!" Silver Spoon smiled at Mrs. Cheerilee and stepped off to the side. Rough Ryder stepped up and handed Mrs. Cheerilee the paper. She looked closely at the answers he had written on the paper. Ryder stood their stiff not knowing what the answer would be. He saw the teachers eyes dart here and there on his paper. Suddenly she gasped. She looked up at Ryder and smiled brightly. "Well I think I know somepony who'll be taking over the vault once I step down!" Mrs. Cheerilee said. Ryder's jaw dropped. Silver Spoon stepped up surprised. "So he'll be the new Overseer?!" She said shocked. The Overseer mare nodded still smiling. "Rough Ryder why don't you take your friend here and go celebrate down at the diner!" She said standing up. "Ill call ahead and tell them to give you a free meal. Just think of it as a way of my daughter apologizing." Ryder shook his head snapping back and smiled. "Thank you Mrs. Cheerilee but uh... Can you possibly tell my mother where I am and what I got?" He asked. "Please? I don't want her to worry about me while I'm out." The Overseer smiled and nodded. Silver Spoon grabbed her friends hand and pulled him out the door. ###### Ryder followed her down the hall when she suddenly pulled him into an empty apartment of the vault. The windows were closed up with metal shutters. Silver Spoon pushed Ryder to the ground, closing the door and locking it. She then pressed a bright green button in the darkness turning on the lights in the apartment. Ryder blushed as his friend lied on top of him and kissed him on the lips. He quickly pushed her off. "What are you doing?!" He asked. Silver Spoon giggled and blushed starting to unzip her jumpsuit. She stopped the zipper at her stomach and took her arms out of her sleeves simultaneously removing her Pittpony. She revealed a white bra covering both her big breasts. "I wanna be the first one to do it with the new over seer of Vault 619!" She said grabbing her friends arms. She then pressed her friends hands against her chest blushing hard. "Take me Ryder! Take me right here! Right now!" Rough Ryder blushed hard. "You... uh... You really want me to do that...?" He asked. Silver Spoon nodded and started to unzip her friend turned lovers jumpsuit. She clicked a button on her friends Pittpony opening it up. Ryder brought his arm up and slipped out of his jumpsuit. He reached around and unhooked Silver Spoons bra, allowing it to drop down revealing more of her squishy tits. Ryder rolled over away from his Pittpony getting on top of his friend. he pulled his jumpsuit down revealing grey boxers bulging with his hard member. Silver Spoon pulled her jumpsuit down tossing her bra to the side revealing her cute pink and white striped panties. She pulled her panties to the side revealing her pink pussy begging for her friend's dick. Ryder pulled his boxers down and out popped his cock. Silver Spoon gazed at his member. It was thick and big looking like it could tear her in half. Ryder grabbed hold of it and put the tip right on the lips of his friends freshly lubricated hole. He slowly pushed in making Silver Spoon whimper. She squeezed Ryder's wrists and started to breathe heavily once she felt her womb squish. "...G-Go slow..." She told her friend. Ryder nodded and started to thrust slowly. Silver Spoon let out little moans biting her lip. She grabbed one of her huge breasts and started to play with her clit extending her fingers around Ryder's cock as it slid in and out of her dripping wet pussy. "G-Go faster...?" She said through her moans. Ryder nodded and started to thrust a bit faster making his female friend moan louder. They both felt pressure grow as their parts interlocked. Ryder leaned down and kissed Silver Spoon passionately as he started to thrust a bit faster again. Silver let out a muffled scream as she took a pounding from her friend. They broke the kiss and almost yelled. Silver Spoon gushed with her feminine juices as she came hard. Ryder kept thrusting. He wasn't ready to blow just yet. Still moaning Silver Spoon looked her friend right in the eye. "...Cum already!" She said. "Fill me! I-Its safe today!" Ryder smiled a bit breaking his concentration. His large member convulsed and within a second he and his friend yelled as Ryder came filling her womb. Thick white goo splurged out from the grey mares pussy. As Ryder propped himself up with one hand on the ground and the other gripping his panting friends hand he pulled his dick out and kissed Silver Spoon. ##### Soon after they were both up on their feet again dressed in their jump suits with their Pittpony's back on their wrists. Silver Spoon's mane was a bit messy but she fixed it right up with a brush she kept in her jump suit pocket. Ryder's mane dripped with his sweat and he flipped it back keeping it out of his eyes. Silver Spoon slipped her brush away and sighed going to her friends side. "This'll be between you and me big boy!" She said taking Ryder's hand. Ryder smiled. "You really know how to celebrate." He said. "Wish you could've gotten party planner for a job in the vault. That was awesome. Bet that really built up an appetite too. Why don't we head to the diner to take up that free meal The Overseer gave me?" Silver Spoon nodded and clicked the button on the front door and unlocked it while at the same time opening it. Ryder looked around in the hall before he and Silver Spoon came out turning out the lights and closing the metal door.
A few years later Ryder, now 22 was sleeping in his bed. A loud alarm went off waking him from his slumber. He threw off his covers revealing he was in his boxers. He quickly went over to a dresser where his Pittpony sat but this one looked upgraded. He opened a drawer and pulled out a Vault 619 jumpsuit. He quickly got in it when his mother came in looking panicked. "Ryder you need to go see The Overseer RIGHT NOW!" Spitfire snapped. Rough Ryder stumbled as he put his leg inside his jumpsuit at the same time he put his arm in. He looked to his mother as he zipped his jumpsuit up. "What the hell is going on?!" He asked as he slapped his Pittpony on. Spitfire grabbed her sons arm and looked him straight in the eye. "Its about Silver Spoon." She said. Ryder's heart dropped. He quickly slipped his boots on and darted out of his room. He clicked the button to open the front door and ran out into the hall where other ponies were running left and right trying to get back into their homes. The loud alarm covered up everything the other ponies were saying. Ryder pushed everyone out of the way not meaning to be rude but to be fast getting to where he needed. Just as he came to a clearing in an open empty hall he saw someone panicked run up to him. It was Scootaloo. She had tears in her eyes. Ryder tried to run off but Scootaloo grabbed his arm stopping him. "RYDER! YOU HAVE TO HELP ME PLEASE!" She yelled through her tears. Ryder looked to her. "Cant it wait?" He asked. "Your mother needs me!" Scootaloo pulled him away. "NO PLEASE YOU GOTTA HELP ME!" She screamed. Ryder snatched his arm away stopping. "Why should I?!" He snapped. Scootaloo sniffled. "I'm sorry for bullying you okay? Now please! HELP ME!" She said through her tears. "I was in the diner with Applebloom and Sweetie Belle when the alarm sounded! I got up to get out of there but they were trapped by RadRoaches! They're still in there! Please go help them!" Ryder nodded and ran off down the hall with Scootaloo on his heels. They got to the diner and Ryder looked inside an open window. Inside he saw Sweetie Belle and Applebloom both on the counter holding each other close while four RadRoaches tried crawling up at them. Scootaloo tapped Ryders shoulder. He looked over and saw she had a crow bar in her hand. "Here!" She said handing the metal bar over. "Use this to kill those things! I would but... They freak me out worse than a friggen spider...." Ryder nodded and grabbed the crowbar. He quickly ran through the open door and started to hit the gigantic bugs one by one. Suddenly everything went in slow motion. Ryder swung at the last two bugs smashing them both in one shot. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom looked down from the counter and saw Ryder still smashing the already dead gigantic bugs. They both hopped down behind him. Ryder stopped smashing the bugs and looked up at the two shaking girls. "You two okay?" Ryder asked. Sweetie Belle nodded. Applebloom hugged Ryder scared. "Thank you for saving us..." She said starting to cry a bit. Scootaloo ran in teary eyed. "GUYS!" She yelled. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom looked to her and immediately went to her hugging her. "Guys... I'm so sorry I left you two here... Please don't hate me...." Sweetie Belle sniffled as Applebloom sobbed. "I-its okay..." She said holding back tears. "...I would've done the same... im sorry but... I would've...." Ryder stepped up. "There you are two alive friends!" He said. Scootaloo looked over her friends shoulders. "Thank you Ryder..." She said. "Y-you know we was just joking when we were pickin' on you right?" She pushed her friends off a bit giving her enough room. "Here... Take my jacket... It's a bit too big for me and... Look just take it before I start crying..." She whimpered taking her jacket off. She handed it over to Ryder who hesitantly took it. He slipped it on and it fit him perfectly. He looked to Scootaloo and smiled. "You keep the crowbar too... You might need it..." Scootaloo said. Ryder nodded and hurried back out the door and back down the hall. He soon came up onto The Overseers office. He saw her through the window pacing back and forth nervously. Ryder clicked the button on the door startling The Overseer as the door opened. Ryder went in with crowbar in hand and a serious face. The Overseer quickly grabbed the colts arm and pulled him towards another room with the door wide open. She pushed the button closing the door behind them. Suddenly she turned around pushing Rough Ryder into an open chair. "Mrs. Cheerilee what the hell is going on?!" Ryder asked panicked. The Overseer whimpered a bit and pointed to a computer right behind him. Ryder turned the chair and took a look at the screen. It was a video replaying over and over again of someone opening the vault door and running out. Ryder took a closer look at the screen and gasped. The pony he saw opening the vault door was none other than Silver Spoon! He couldn't believe his eyes. He turned back to The Overseer mouth gaping in shock. "... I know what you're thinking Ryder..." Mrs. Cheerilee said sadly. "Why would a good filly like Silver Spoon leave the vault when we aren't supposed to?" Ryder shuttered. 'Silver Spoon... She actually did it...' He thought. 'She actually went to see the outside...' He stood up and growled mad bearing his teeth and eyes clenched shut. He opened his eyes and locked onto The Overseer. "I wanna go after her!" He snapped. The Overseer gasped. "NO YOU CANT!" She yelled scared. Ryder grabbed her arm and looked her straight in the eye. "I. Want. To. Go. AFTER. Her!" He said. "I want to bring her back here! You and I both know it's dangerous out there and what I've seen from the RadRoaches things out there are BIG! Now if you will please! Lead me to that vault door and open it for me! My Pittpony will allow me to keep in contact with you and other vault dwellers! I'll bring her back or die trying!" Mrs. Cheerilee took a deep breath and shook her head. "ALRIGHT!" She yelled now giving Ryder a crazed look. "You bring her back here and I wont punish her! You always have been a modeled citizen of Vault 619 and you're using this to your advantage! Just quickly follow me to the vault door! I don't want anyone to see me doing this they'll think I'm a pushover!" Ryder nodded.
Not even a few minutes later Rough Ryder and Mrs. Cheerilee found themselves inside a cave with bright lights around them illuminating a big door. Ryder stood at a set of stairs leading down to cave floors. The Overseer stood to the side at a control panel pushing a few buttons. "Mrs. Cheerilee..." Ryder said. The Overseer looked over at him. She saw him looking to her worried. "...If I don't make it back within a few months... Keep the door closed and tell my mother I'm sorry I couldn't stay inside... I needed my friend... my... girlfriend..." Mrs. Cheerilee walked over to the steps. "...I see why you want her back..." She said. "... If I had the courage to go after my husband if he ran away after I found out I was pregnant I would've... If he had stayed Scootaloo wouldn't have been such a bully to you if she was raised by both me and her father..." Ryder hugged her. "You know she just needed someone to show they weren't scared at all..." He said. "If you noticed I have a leather jacket on... It's Scootaloo's... She gave it to me after I saved her friends from RadRoaches... She even apologized for bullying me all those years... You give her a hug for me and tell her i'll be back soon!" Mrs. Cheerilee sniffled. "... O-okay..." She said. She broke the hug and went back to the panel. Before she could open the vault door another door behind her opened. Ryder looked back and saw his mother running to his side with a baseball bat in hand. "Ryder!" She said. Ryder stood frozen in place a bit scared. "M-Mom?!" He said dropping his crowbar. "Mom I-I can explain!" Spitfire growled and got into her sons face making him flinch clenching his eyes shut. Ryder felt her grab his arm and felt something push up into the palm of his hand. "Take this Ryder!" She said. Ryder opened his eyes and looked to his hand. There he saw the bat his mother had carried. He looked to his mother who was now hugging him almost in tears. "...Mom...? Why are you doing this...?" He asked. Spitfire sniffled. "...I want you to bring your girlfriend back safe!" She said. Ryder's heart dropped. "...Y-you knew...?" He said. Spitfire nodded. Mrs. Cheerilee stepped over blushing a bit. "I showed her the security footage after you and Silver Spoon left my classroom.... Where she pulled you into an empty housing unit... We didn't see anything but we heard a lot...." She said. "...Microphones could be anywhere in the corners of the homes..." Ryder blushed hard as Spitfire broke the hug. "...Go get her Ryder!" She said. "I want you to be happy! You bring her back and I promise we can make your lives perfect in the vault!" Ryder picked up his crowbar and smiled. "Alright..." He said. "... I love you mom... Keep everything ready for me when I get home...." Spitfire nodded as The Overseer went to the control panel again. Ryder turned and walked down the steps. Just as he hit the cave floor the giant vault door started to roll open. It stopped opening just about 3 yards wide. Ryder looked back and saw his mother and Mrs. Cheerilee waving at him. Ryder waved back and turned to the opened door. Where was he going to go? What was outside of that vault door. Will he make it back to the vault in time? Who even knows?
