Many years ago, the world experienced a technological revolution that changed everything for the better, for both the extremely wealthy and the ordinary.

Dusk is only ordinary in that he's a pony. Unlike most, he's a bat pony with a mental state now comparable to Mad Max. Lately, all he's done is aimlessly wander Equestria, working temp jobs to keep himself supported, his car his only companion, indulging in his old hobbies to keep himself in a relatively good mood and keep his painful memories from getting too close to his comfort zone.

But then a chance encounter lands him the opportunity to settle the score with those who wronged him. The catch? He's going to have to fight for it, gladiator-style.

[Author's notes] This story was heavily inspired by and is based on Twisted Metal PS3/2012. It will go through all of the events in the game's campaign. Rated for language, violence, and dark subjects (though they may not be obvious at the beginning). I need a cover image for this story, but have no method of payment; contact me if you're interested, anyway.
