Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Claptrap wipe himself from any snow still on him and drives closer to his minions/saviors .

“Thanks, minions” He said as he turned around to his “Minions”. Claptrap goes by the dead bullymongs and to a crate that has a frozen door. As Claptrap looks around, someone was trying to talk to them on the ECHO device.

“Hey kiddo, Discord here- President of Hyperion. Lemme explain how things works here: Vault hunter shows up. Vault hunter look for the new Vault, Vault hunter get killed. By me.” Discord said. “You see the issue here? You mares are still alive. So, if you do me a favor and off yourself, that will be great. Thanks, sweetie pie.” Discord finished. “But, we are not Vault hunters!” Twilight yells nerverous into the ECHO device hoping that he will not kill them.

But, no said anything back. Just silents from the ECHO device

“Annnnnnnd open!” Claptrap said as he bash his body into the door which cause the door to fall inwards. Next to the door was yellow, metal, boxes. Twilight quickly opens one hoping there a placebo and some ammo. Which she was right, She found a two pistol ammo boxes and four placebo.  She pick up the a pistol ammo and put the ammo inside her saddlebag and she picks up a placebo and stabs it in her hoof. Her health was lifted back to 75/90, she lifted up another placebo and was about to put in her hoof but she didn't the effects of the overdosing the placebo. So, she put the placebo inside her saddlebag. Her friend’s opened other boxes and found the same items inside the boxes. She look at her friend’s health bar and most of them were full expect her and Rainbow Dash.

“Everypony locked and loaded?” Twilight asked all her friends.

Her friends look at their ammo counter and saw they had a full magazine. They nod their heads and Twilight knew that she was ready for any possible fight. She move inside the container which Claptrap opened. Inside the container was snow and fallen metal door, not much inside but a hole on the right side of the container which leads to a big area that creates an arena type of area with a hill that has scrap metal and a ramp leading to a container.

Claptrap was the first one to step or drive outside the container. But, Claptrap suddenly jumped as he saw a ghost.

“My eye just switched back on!” Claptrap yells with his default voice. Twilight runs towards Claptrap and lifts her pistol over her head.

“What do you see?” Twilight asks very nervously. She scans  area they were around and saw nothing coming out out the bullymong nests.

“I see a minion, and incredibly handsome robot right next to my minion.” Claptrap answers, but he quickly realized something.

“This means that whoever has my eye…Is very close” Claptrap said in a worried version of his default voice.

In the distance, a big bullymong with something glowing on it chest, jumped on top of a container. The container surrounded by metal, broken cars, and quickly land on top of car that was pretty close to the cliff and grab a car next to the car he was on top of and threw it towards the ground.

As the car was falling not too far from the cliff, the big bullymong quickly jumped down to the ground. The car landed to the ground exploded on contact bit and prices , and at the same time as the car explodes, the bullymong lands on the ground behind the black smoke. The bullymong start to roar behind the smoke, but quickly the smoke starts to disappear. Revealing the big bullymong pounding the floor with his big 4 arms. “AHHHHHHH! That’s Knuckle Dragger!” Claptrap screamed in fear as he runs around the arena-like area with arms in the air.

Knuckle Dragger heard the screaming from Claptrap and turn it head toward the container, it saw Claptrap and quickly chased after it.

“Oh, no you don’t!” Rainbow dash said as she aims her gun at the Knuckle Dragger. She pulled the trigger and the bullets hit the back of Knuckle Dragger dealing 11 damage from both bullets, Which his health when down, by an astronomically small amount. Knuckle Dragger ignore the bullets and continues chasing the feared robot.

Quickly, Twilight and Applejack aim their pistols at Knuckle Dragger and fried their pistols.The all four of the bullets hit Knuckle Dragger in the back dealing more damage than Rainbow dash alone. Knuckle Dragger, felt the pain from bullets and stop chasing Claptrap. Knuckle Dragger turns around and saw the 3 of the group aiming their pistols at him. Knuckle Dragger used his arms to smash the ice causing it to break into large pieces .

Twilight and her friend knew what it was doing, they quickly took aim and fired their pistols. Rarity and Fluttershy peak from the container like a bear out of a cave and saw the fight. The bullymong lifted the broken ice from the ground and instead of lifting the broken ice over its head, it lifts the ice in front of it and used it as cover .

“Be careful, it looks pretty smart!” Fluttershy yells out to her friends, as she watch the movement of the big bullymong. Twilight took note of what Fluttershy in her head, and quickly thought of a plan.

“Rainbow dash!” she calls out to her friend in a need of assistance. Rainbow Dash look to the left next to her which was twilight calling for her.

“I am right next to you. you know that right?” Rainbow Dash said as she rubbed her left ear with her hoof.

“Sorry, but we need to get Knuckle Dragger to move away from his cover, so I need you to lure him out of cover. Don’t worry because we got you covered, me and Applejack will help you when he is lured out.” Twilight told her plan to Rainbow dash.

“Ok.” Rainbow dash said with no concern. Rainbow dash jumps into the sky and opens her wings.

She used the cool wind to help her glide in the air and over Knuckle’s icy cover. Knuckle quickly notice her in air and started to move towards the wall that she couldn’t go over. She looks down to see the bullymong look at her and chasing her. Rainbow dash look forward again and saw the big icy wall that she was heading straight towards.

“Oh snap!” she said as she prepare for impact by blocking her face again.

Rainbow dash smashes her covered face into the icy wall and landed on top of the hill part of the arena. She fell down a couple of feet from the sky to ground without hitting into anything her way down to the ground. The next thing falling from the sky was her sword which landed on the sharp, side so the handle was sticking upwards. Next to the swords was her gun which didn’t break nor leave a crack.

The fall only took 10 out of her 90 health. She quickly get up to her hooves and saw Knuckle Dragger running towards her. She quickly picks her pistol with her hoof and her sword with her mouth. The bullymong stop on the end of the hill when it notice that Rainbow recovered quickly. She charge towards Knuckle with her sword point towards the bullymong.

As Rainbow dash charges downhill, Twilight and Applejack snuck behind the cover created by Knuckle. Rainbow dash, push her sword to stab Knuckle but Knuckles dodge quickly to right of attack and leap away from Rainbow dash and land behind the cover he made. It start to walk backwards with his four large hands.

Twilight and Applejack lend their heads to see the fight and saw Knuckles in front of them. He didn't notice them, as it was fighting Rainbow dash. Twilight aim her pistol at Knuckle Dragger on the right side of cover, Applejack notice what Twilight was doing and she aimed her gun at Knuckle Dragger on the left side of the cover. Rainbow dash saw her friends aiming at the bullymong, she quickly ran towards Knuckle Dragger again with her sword pointed at the bullymong again.

Knuckle didn’t move away from his made cover, it just stood still like it was in a execution and glared at Rainbow dash. Rainbow Dash ran faster with her sword and stabbed in Knuckle’s stomach. Knuckle Dragger didn't felt the sword inside his body nor it felt pain at all. Rainbow dash looked up and saw the Knuckle Dragger face. She notice quickly that it didn’t yell out in pain. Quickly, she pull out her sword out the Knuckle’s stomach and backed away from Knuckle. Knuckles starts to bleed out of his stomach and dripping down to the ground. Twilight look away from the sword being pulled out as it disgusted her.

Applejack pulled the trigger on her pistol and the two hit Knuckle Dragger in the head twice. Knuckle Dragger shocked of both, being shot in the face and his cover was taken by the enemy. Twilight who was unprepared to shoot Knuckle Dragger, re-aimed her pistol at Knuckle Dragger again and pulled the trigger. The bullets hit the body Knuckle Dragger. It didn’t deal a lot of damage but it made Knuckle very angry. Knuckle underestimated the ponies.

Knuckle turns around and took the cover that Twilight and Applejack were behind. Knuckle lift the icy cover over his head with two of his four arms. He turned around and quickly threw at Rainbow dash. Rainbow dash instead of running away from the rock, she ran towards the Knuckle Dragger fast. The rock landed far behind Rainbow dash, she had held her sword sideways this time. Knuckle Dragger notice that his rock was useless and Charge towards Rainbow dash. Twilight saw them going to do a head-on collision, she aim her pistol at Knuckle Dragger leg’s and pulled the trigger.

The bullet hit it’s right leg but the second bullet hit the ground between leg. Knuckle dragger tripped fell on icy ground and fell face first. Rainbow dash continues her charge. She took a small leap a couple steps away from, while she was in leap she turn around and kicked the Knuckle Dragger in face really hard causing him to be knocked back to icy floor. Knuckle sprang back to see Rainbow Dash’s sword stabbed into his chest. Knuckle Dragger this time it really felt the pain.

Knuckle pushed away Rainbow dash, but left the sword inside it's chest. Knuckle did a 180 spin punch, hitting Twilight and Applejack who was still behind knuckle and being knocked back into a car dealing 20 of their 90 health. Knuckle Dragger jump in the air towards the container and landed on top of the container. Bullymong started to come out of the walls that had holes in them. "Oh god! They are coming out of the wall holes!" Claptrap yells out to his minions as he still runs around the arena like area.

As the bullymongs of different sizes start to swarm the group near a cliff. The other 2 start to grow concerns for their friends. “We need to save them.” Rarity said quietly to Fluttershy.

“What are we going to do?” Fluttershy asked Rarity. Rarity thought her plan and she walks out the container. She aims her pistol to the closest bullymong, which was a level 1 monglet. She hesitated to pulled the trigger, as she saw the amount of about 10 bullymongs was surrounding Twilight, Applejack, and Rainbow dash.

If she shot a bullymong, that mean that all of bullymongs will attack her friend and her also. The bullymongs started to close a gap in between Twilight and her other 2 friends. Rarity lower her pistol as she closed her eyes to think of a visual plan.

Instead of her seeing her plan, she saw a small crystal with a rainbow color, the crystal start to shaking and start moving. The crystal moved into the ground slowly. Then, the ground cracked and appeared a thin, tall, rainbow color, and sharp jagged on edges and on of the diamond that appear out of the ground. The diamond created a electricity that was shared between the edges.

She wonder why she was think of this, until the electricity volts was quickly shot towards her eyes. She open her eyes to that she is still alive and she accidentally pulled the trigger on her gun, the bullets hit the ground in front of her. All the bullymongs turned their attention to shooter, Rarity. She was neverous about the amount of bullymongs nearby.

One of the bullymongs, the level 1 monglet she aimed at,  has jumped into the air and raised it arm readying itself for punch to Rarity. Rarity aimed her pistol at the monglet in that air. But, she quickly changed her mind and used her magic. Her horn glowed and raised her right hoof. The hoof started to grow a sharp, long, clear color,crystal with smaller sharp crystals around the long one. The monglet was about to smash down on Rarity, while it was quickly descending.

Rarity closed her eyes in nervousness and raised her crystallized hoof up to the monglet, the monglet was too late to move and end up get killed by a crystal. Blood splatter on to Rarity’s face and blood on the, Rarity opens her eyes to see the dead monglet on her crystal. She smiles as she lower her hoof letting the monglet slowly slide off the crystal. Rarity look at the other 9 bullymongs. “Who next?” Rarity said taunting the bullymongs. The next bullymong is a level 2 brat bullymong, it begins to charge towards Rarity . Rarity aimed her pistol at the brat bullymong’s legs and she pulled the trigger.

The one of the two bullets hit the leg stopping the bullymong, the other hit the ground. Rarity quickly ran towards the bullymong and readied her crystals hoof. The bullymong saw her run towards and used his big arm to punch her out of it sight. But, she dropped down and slide under the gap the bullymong’s arms. She jumped up to her hoofs and stab the head of the bullymong killing it. Rarity pulled out her crystal hoof out the bullymongs head and the bullymong fell backwards.

“Heh, that too easy.” Rarity said with a smirk on her face. Twilight and her other 2 friends watch Rarity quickly and cleanly kill two bullymongs on her own.

“I going to help her.” Twilight said reloading her pistol held by her magic. Rainbow dash held her pistol in her hooves.

Two brat bullymongs surrounded Rarity on the left side and right side. “ You really want to fight me?” Rarity ask the bullymongs in a sarcastic way. The bullymong on the right tried to punch with it big arm. Rarity quickly ducked down, donging the bullymongs attack and causing it to punch the other bullymong. The bullymong was hit so hard that he already hit the ground when it hit the bullymong. Rarity saw her chance and she jumps and uppercuts the bullymong’s jaw on the right with her left hoof.

The bullymong head didn't move at all and the bullymong endured the uppercut. But, Rarity quickly notice that the uppercut did nothing to bullymong. She quickly drop down to the ground and she stabs the crystal hoof to the bullymong stomach. The bullymong forcefully grabs the crystal hoof and pulls the hoof out quickly.

The bullymong held Rarity by her crystal hoof, this made Rarity lost her cool and start to be nervous. “Back off-” She said as she use her magic to move her gun in front of the bullymong’s face. “You, bully!” She said as she pull the trigger. The two bullets hit the middle of the bullymongs head killing it. The bullymong lost it grip of Rarity and she drop to the ground face first and she accidentally smash her crystal hoof into piece. “Ow!” Rarity said as she lost 5 of her 90 health left.

She get up and notice that her gun has drop into a group bullymongs fighting Rainbow dash and applejack while twilight used her pistol in medium range.

“Shoot!” She said as her horn lit up. “On guard!” She said as she lift her right again and a crystal with the same color and size grew from it again. She notice that a monglet ran out of the group and moved towards the far left of the battlefield nearby the cars and other metal scrap with rust.

Rarity knew that it was about to flank her friend positions, and quickly ran towards that monglet. The monglet saw Rarity charging towards it and quickly saw something metal in front of it, the monglet pick it up and notice that it was a thick pipe used for cars. Rarity jumped into the air and stick her crystal hoof out towards the monglet. The monget held the pipe sideways protecting it head. Rarity’s Crystals hoof penetrated through the metal pipe and into the head killing it. The monglet body drop and so does the pipe. Rarity saw her pistol being stomped around by bullymongs but not breaking. Rarity had to find way to get her gun without get harmed.

“Hey! Pinkie!” She yells towards the container that had Fluttershy and Pinkie. Pinkie pokes her head out to find who was calling her name. She turns her head to the left to see that Rarity was looking in her direction and container where the other 2 of her friends are. Pinkie move her head out of the container and turned to the direction where she heard her name. She saw Rarity waving her hooves, and looking at her like she need help. Pinkie looks at the team head up display and notice that her 4 fighting friends were losing a lot of health.

Pinkie ran out of the container and towards Rarity. She held her pistol in her hooves as she ran across from the container to Rarity for safety against the bullymongs. She get in front of Rarity wondering why Rarity called.

“You called me?” Pinkie asks.

“Yes” Rarity answers. “I need help with getting my gun back but looking at the amount of bullymongs still around, I need a bigger number than one” Rarity said. Pinkie nods in understanding.

“Ok, we need to attack from the left side and that might help out our friends in need”

A red skull appeared on the team head up display with a red bar under the skull is a that is slowly decreasing. The skull appeared over Applejack’s name. Rarity looks at the fight and notice that Applejack was on the ground with her pistol in her hooves.

“I need help y’all , I am bleeding a lot!” Applejack yells out as she as she crawls to get closer to her friends. Twilight kills a bullymong coming closer to Applejack, she saw another monglet running towards Applejack. Twilight fried her gun from her right side without aiming and the monglet died quickly.

“Twilight, help me up!” Applejack said as she raised her hoof.

Twilight grabs her hoof and stood there for couple seconds, stopping the meter from decreasing. Twilight saw a monglet with barely any health jump towards her. Applejack was quickly notice the monglet and shot the monglet in the head killing it, then it fell to the ground. Now there are five bullymongs left and Applejack was on her hooves again but, with barely any health.The skull disappeared from Applejack’s name. Knuckle dragger fell down into the fighting field. Knuckle Dragger notice there is still one pony still inside the container and it was Fluttershy.

Knuckle Dragger wasn't spotted by the 5 fighting ponies, so it was taking advantage of the opportunity. Knuckle Dragger walked over to the container and saw the yellow pony in the end of container, with no cover.

“EEKK!” Fluttershy screams in fright, and then immediately cover her eyes as she curls up into a ball. Knuckle Dragger grabs Fluttershy with it big arm and takes her out of the container. Knuckles looks at Fluttershy with a death stare, Fluttershy opens her eyes and saw it looking at her.

“EEEEKKK! She screams again this time loud enough for her friends to hear it. They turn around and saw Knuckle Dragger lifting it arm over it head. “Please don’t do this to me Mr.Knuckles I have done no harm to you.” Fluttershy said as she sobs. Knuckle Dragger, was cold hearted  and didn't listen as it throw Fluttershy towards her friends.

The feeling that Fluttershy was….bloodthirsty, she wanted punishment for what that bullymong did to her, she wanted it to die. She open her wings which slowed down the speed that she was going at. She landed on her hoof, but it was still too fast as she left skid marks on the ice. The speed started to slow down and stop in front of her friends, not harming them at all.

“Fluttershy?” Twilight ask her friend that wasn’t her.

Fluttershy didn’t answer to Twilight, as she thought about her plan to kill Knuckle Dragger, she notice that the group bullymongs have been gone and that Rarity’s pistol was in the middle between Fluttershy and Knuckle Dragger. She also notice that Knuckle Dragger still had the Rainbow’s sword outside of his stomach. Fluttershy ran towards Knuckle Dragger and picked up the gun off the ground, then she aims at Knuckle Dragger and pulled the trigger. The bullets hit the bullymongs head and chest. Not killing but leaving Knuckle Dragger at very low health.

She pulled the trigger again and no bullets came out of the gun. It was empty, Knuckle Dragger charge towards her. Fluttershy drops the gun, and was ready for Knuckle’s attack. Knuckles started to run faster as it got closer to Fluttershy. The bullymong got ready to it attack but, Fluttershy leaped into the air and grabbed the head of Knuckles. She pulls down on the head of the bullymong and smash it head into the ground. it deal no damage, Knuckle Dragger quickly got back up to it’s feet but to find Fluttershy no where to be found.

Fluttershy was far behind knuckles as she grabs a very sharp, short, metal stick on the ground in front of her. She picks it up with a grin of a murder and start to run towards Knuckle Dragger with a smile of a killer. Knuckle Dragger turns around around from hearing footsteps behind him and saw Fluttershy jumps into air again. Fluttershy stabs the metal stick into knuckle Dragger face, killing him. Loot fell out of his body and landing on the ground, some were ammo, some were place, and 2 were guns. Fluttershy jumps off from the dead bullymong body and she tries to catch her breath. She starts to giggles, not like having fun, but like she just felt what true killing is.
