Previous ChapterNext Chapter

“It feels nice…” Fluttershy said. “To kill animals, now I know why we are doing this, we want to feel the joy of killing these animals!” Fluttershy screams at her friends. The other 5 friend were nervous about Fluttershy new “Joy”. Twilight took a step closer to Fluttershy.

“Fluttershy, are you ok?” Twilight asks in concern of her friend.

“I am fine! I am perfectly fine, Twilight!” Fluttershy screams at Twilight. Twilight took a step back into her group of friends. Fluttershy felt something very hot, she touches her head, and start to slumps to left side, she used her hoofs to stops her moving to the left and start to slump over to the right side. But, she was too tried. So she closes her eyes and faints in on top of a dead bullymong. “Fluttershy!” all her friends said as they ran towards her body. Twilight puts a her hoof over Fluttershy’s head to see how hot is her head. It was flaming hot, “We need to cooldown her temperature!” Twilight shouts to her friends.

“We don’t have much!” Rainbow dash shouts.

“We have placebo and a lot of snow but I don’t think it will help” Rarity said supporting Rainbow dash’s short statement. Claptrap start to walk closer to where he heard his minions shouting.

Claptrap heard placebo and knew something.

“Oh, actually placebo can cure anything! Even sadness!” Claptrap said.

“Ok…. Rainbow give me a placebo.” Twilight said. Rainbow dash walks over to a placebo on the ground and picks it up with her right hoof. She gives Twilight the placebo, and Twilight levitated the placebo over Fluttershy’s right hoof. She inserts the in that hoof, she put her hoof on Fluttershy head again.

The temperature started to slowly decrease, but she still had her eyes closed.

“Ok, she going to be fine all we have to do is to find Claptrap’s eye.” Twilight said as she levitated Fluttershy onto the top of her back. The weight from Fluttershy didn't affect Twilight from moving. Twilight walk with her friends to find the Claptrap’s eye. A white diamond shape panned over a dead bullymong.

“That might where the eye be.” Rainbow dash said.

“I will check.” Applejack said. She walks over to the on top of Knuckle Dragger was a Claptrap’s eye.

“Found it!” Applejack shouts.

“Found my eye?” Claptrap asks.

“Yes, and it still in one piece.” Applejack answers.

“Great! Now we just need to find somepony to put in back into me. He said.

"Much as I’m sure you’d like jam your hoof into my skull, eye surgery is best left to professionals -- my pal Daring Do in Liar’s Berg can fix me up!” Claptrap said.

Rainbow dash heard Daring Do from Claptrap and She felt extremely happy . She quickly flys up to Claptrap and pick him up to her happy face.

“Daring Do?!” Rainbow dash said in a fangirl voice.

“Yeah, I said that.” Claptrap said awkwardly. “Are you fan of her?” Claptrap asks. Rainbow dash still happy from hearing Daring Do, She didn't answer.

Twilight overheard their conversation, and notice that Claptrap question was left unanswered. She walks closer to her friend who held Claptrap like a fangirl waiting for a comment from a famous pony.

“Yes, she is a huge fan especially her books.” Twilight answers.

“Great, now can you tell your friend left go of me.” Claptrap said as Rainbow dash smile starts to get wider and creeper. Twilight nods and nudges her with her hoof.

“Yeah, I heard him, just messing around a little.” Rainbow dash said as she dropped him on the ground. She stop having a fangirl moment yet it still in her head.

Pinkie, Rarity, and Applejack was picking ammo and health, until they both found two pistols on the floor. One was a grey single barrel pistol with a flip switch on the left side, the other is a small grey revolver.

“Hey, Twilight and Rainbow come over!” Applejack called out to her friends.

Twilight and Rainbow dash walks towards Applejack. “What is, Applejack” Twilight ask. “We found two pistol or look like a gun. So I was wondering if anyone wants one. I don’t want one they look a little too weak to me” Applejack said. Rainbow dash looked at the single barrel pistol and saw a chart with numbers appeared in front of her.

“Whoa! what this?!” Rainbow dash said.

“What's what?” Pinkie pie asks Rainbow dash. “There like numbers in front of my eyes!” Rainbow dash describes the chart. Her friends walks closer to the pistol and saw the same chart that Rainbow dash saw. It was the chart for the pistol, the pistol was called TMP. The chart had small pictures next that was words that said : Damage, Accuracy, Fire rate, Reload speed, and Magazine size.

Next to the words was the number for the pictures. The name of the pistol was on top of the chart. It was called TMP, the damage of the gun is 6, the accuracy is 86.2, the fire rate is 12.6, the reload speed is 4.6, and the magazine size was 20.

“Anyone still going to take it?” Applejack asks again. Rainbow dash picks it up and puts in her hooves.

“Let me test run this.” Rainbow dash said.  She aims at the ground and pulls the trigger. The guns fires 1 bullet every second, just from one pull from she used up 7 bullets.

“Whoa! This is pretty good! I will take it” She said happy.

“Ok, so there a another pistol.” Applejack said as she show her friends the small grey revolver. The chart appeared in front of everypony face. The gun was called revolver and the damage is 10, the accuracy is 92.1, the fire rate is 12.7, and the reload speed 3.7, and the magazine size is 6, but this time the gun had a sentence under the chart. It said Fires as fast as you can pull the trigger.

“What that supposed to mean?” Pinkie asks Twilight.

“I think it means that when you pull the trigger, you have to do something to it to something to it to shoot the gun again.” Twilight guess as she didn't have any books to keep her informed about weapons they are using

“I will take it, if no pony wants it” Applejack said. Her 4 friend shakes their heads.

“Ok, it mine.” Applejack said as she picks the revolver with her hoof. She aims her new pistol at the metal scraps. She pulled the trigger and the bullet hit a car hood. She pulled the trigger again, but the bullet didn't come out of the gun.

“Huh?” She said as she examines the gun. The hammer (The part that is in the top back part of the gun that need to be pulled back after each shot). It wasn't pulled back to put the next bullet into the barrel. She pulled back the hammer, and she hear the click from the gun and pulled the trigger again. The bullet came out of the barrel of the gun. She pulls the hammer again.

“Ok, I can learn to use this gun better.”  She said as she wants to get better with her revolver.

She said as she put her new pistol in her saddle bag and pulls out her repeater. “Hurry up, I am tired of seeing darkness.” Claptrap complaints. “We are done.” Twilight said as her and her friends were walking up the hill. Claptrap heard them coming closer and start to go ahead, but without his eye he bumped into a hollow icy rock with skulls inside the rock. “Oof!” He said as he fell to the ground. He quickly pushed himself up by using his arms  and move toward the container.

He heard his minions were close by there hoovesteps and he hearing stopped the hoofsteps.

“Oops! Forgot something.” Rainbow dash said as she just remembers something that she shouldn't forget. She jump from the hill and opens her wings in mid-air to glide over to Knuckledraggers body. Her neon blue sword was sticking upwards of it body. She grabs the sword her mouth and pull it out of the bullymong’s body. The blood on the sword starts to drip on top of the ice.

“Eh, I will clean it later.” Rainbow dash said as she put the sword on the in her saddlebag with the handle sticking outside of the bag. She walks up the hill again to see her friends waiting for her.

“Hey, minion  with my eye! can you point my eye towards the container?” Claptrap asks. “Yeah.” Applejack said as she pulled out the eye from her saddlebag. She used her right hoof to point the eye to the  container. "Ha! Hyperion tech, child's play!" Claptrap said as he move to left side of the container. He lift his arms into the air. “Annnnnd Open!.” He said a blue scanner that look like the scanner from Claptrap's place. The light scans Claptrap's body by look up and down slowly.

The light stop scanning Claptrap. “Intruders detected. Locking doors.” A robotic female voice said and the scanner puts up a blue X sigh to Claptrap.

The container said as it close the door with more doors. A second of awkward silence was interrupted. “Well, it was nice knowing ya! I heard getting eaten alive by Bullymongs or freezing to death isn't such a bad way to go.” Claptrap said with his default voice.

“Really!?” Twilight yells at Claptrap annoyed by just giving up.

“Let me get that for you.” The Unknown female-voice said. “Executing phase shift.” She said as there was technical noise in the background.

The door opens and the door leads to yellow metal boxes.

“Yes! And I was just joke about getting eaten by bullymongs!.” Claptrap said. Twilight and friends knew he was lying about him opening the door but ignored it.

“You’re welcome! The Perks of being Artificial Intelligence. I’m networked into almost everything everything in this planet." The unknown female-voice said.

“Ok, so we got support from an unknown pony that knows us more than we know her.” Rainbow dash said.

“Well, better to die by bullymongs if she didn't open that door.” Rarity argues.

“Rarity right, if she didn't open the doors we will die.” Twilight agreeing Rarity’s statement.

“Yeah, I guess you’re right.” Rainbow dash agreeing with her statement also.

They walk inside the container and saw a trap door open and revealing something. A red and orange, metal box appeared from the trap door hole. The box had a green light lit on the front side of the box and it had only one button near the green light.

“It’s a long way to Sanctuary-- Please take whatever you need for the journey ahead.” The female-voice said.

“Wow, wonder what inside here.” Pinkie said excited.

“Well, let see.” Twilight saw the button near the green light and pressed it, steam came out of the chest and it unfolding it and moving the plates closer and moving to the sides to Twilight and her friends. The chest had ammo, a different kind of ammo than pistol, it was buckshot or shotgun ammo.

Next to that was a big, white and gray, medium size gun. It had a single, large barrel, and it look like the barrel can be broken apart. It had no visible magazine placement. The damage is 11x6, accuracy is 69.1, fire rate is 12.6, reload speed is 5.1, and magazine is 1. It was also a fast as you pull trigger weapon.

“I like surprises but this is a little confusing to me.” Pinkie said as she looks at the charts of the gun. “Oh, that a shotgun! Best at close range but crap at long range.” Claptrap said to inform them about the gun they were looking at.

"Wait, how can you see? You have no eye!" Twilight said as she notice that Applejack had the eye in on top of her hat, it was glowing blue.

"I don't need my eye in my eye socket to see, duh!" Claptrap said as he didn't like what Twilight said.

“Who going to take it?” Rarity ask.

Applejack rises her hoof. “I will.” Applejack said.

“Anypony else wants it?” Rarity gives somepony else a chance before giving it away.

“I like long range better.” Rainbow dash said and her others friends except Applejack shaked their heads, not wanting the gun.

“Ok, here you go, Applejack.” Rarity said as she lifts the gun with her magic into Applejack's hooves.

“Thanks” She said thanking her friend.

She wondered how to reload the gun, it had no visible magazine placement. So, she examines the gun and notice that gun had a small opening around the gun barrel near the trigger. She pushes the barrel with her hoof and the gun opens with the barrel pointing downwards. A small hole was inside the barrel of the gun, she notice that there is a white bullet inside the hole. She lifts up the gun’s barrel to the level that the gun was set at and it keep the original position. She took only one of the buckshots and put it in her saddlebag.

“You guys need to take some of these.” Applejack suggests.

“You might not know when you’re using a shotgun.” Applejack added as she pick another buckshot case and toss it to Rainbow dash.

"Thanks.” She said as she put it in her saddlebag.

“Well, how about we share the supplies we get and when we see a gun, we don’t be greedy and take them without telling your friends.” Twilight said setting a rule for survival. Her friends nodded in agreement.

“Oh! One more thing! Did anypony know that we are not level one any more?” Pinkie said as she just notice that they are not level one. All of her friends looked below the EXP bar and saw that level number and saw they are not level 1 no more they are level 2.

“So, what does this mean?” Applejack asks Pinkie.

“I think it means that we are going to be better at something!” Pinkie theorized. “Oh! Or maybe we get stronger.” Pinkie added.

“She right!” Rarity said. “We are get stronger! We used to have 90 health now we have 100!” Rarity said noticing that she has a bigger health bar. Her friends look at their health bar and they all had the same exact maximum health points.

"And I do feel a little bit stronger." Applejack said as she feels a tiny bit stronger than how she was before.

“Cool! We are going to be the best team ever!” Rainbow dash said happy.

“We still have Discord after us and he wants our head.” Twilight said ruining the happy moment.

“We need to hurry up and Get claptrap eye repaired so we can go to Sanctuary.” Twilight ordered friends. All her friends nodded and went through the small yellow boxes and found money, health, and ammo and quickly collected them like they were robbing a bank.

“Lemme know when you’re ready, minions.” Claptrap said.

“Actually, we are ready, Claptrap.” Twilight said.

Twilight notice that Claptrap had a green question mark over his head, She walk up to him and got a reward 10$ and 45 EXP from him.  He turns away from twilight and walks up to a dial pad attached to a metal door. He start to type on the dial pad for a few seconds. Then he stop and move away from the keypad. The metal door opens to the other side of the container leading to more snow.

“ This way, minions!.” Claptrap said as he move his arms to point to the snowy path up hill. Twilight and friends walk up the hill with Claptrap dashing  past them and going ahead.
