July 17,
It’s been a little over a month since the devastating tornado attack in Los Angeles, and in Canterlot. You’re sleeping in one of the rooms in Applejack’s place which, surprisingly, has survived the F5 tornado disaster.
It’s 5:00 AM and you start to hear what sounds like a voice that’s waking you, though you didn’t hear that somebody came in. It sounds like Applejack’s voice calling your name. You open your eyes barely when you see that the door is open away from your bed, and you see AJ just sitting right next to you.
“It’s time to wake up, buddy.” She says to you as she smiles and looks down at you. You start to stretch your limbs as you awaken from your slumber, and look outside. The sun hasn’t risen yet, and who the hell knows how long it’ll be. To you at least.
You slowly make your way out of the bed, and you start to stretch your limbs again, hearing your joints pop with each stretch.
“Ow.” You whispered as you felt a little pain.
“Come on, Sugarcube.” Applejack said as she’s about to walk out the door. “Ah got breakfast ready before we leave to my cousin’s in Oklahoma. The others are waiting for ya.”
“Thanks Applejack.” You said to her as you rub your eyes. She shuts the door behind her so that you can get dressed. Even though it sucks now you have to go there by car, and not by plane since that the airport might of gotten destroyed. But hey, at least you can sleep in the car as long as you like. You’ve never felt this exhausted except, when you had to wake up almost every single morning for school five days a week.
You pick out the clothes of your choice, and begin to dress yourself. It isn’t a matter of time when you slowly walk downstairs and you see your friends and, your girlfriend ,“Sunset Shimmer.”
“Hey there sleepy head.” She said to you as she saw you. All you can do is smile at her with half lidded eyes. “You ready to go to Oklahoma?”
“I guess.” You said quietly. “How long are we going to stay there for?”
“Well, half of Canterlot was destroyed by last month’s tornado.” Applejack said as she sits down. “But they’re planning to rebuild it so hopefully, not too long.”
“Ah. I see.” You said as you yawned. How sleepy are you and, what time did you go to bed last night?
“Alright. Now eat up big boy. We got a long road trip to go on.” Sunset said as she pecked you on the lips. You just nod and just ate away on your breakfast.
No time later has passed as you’re now done with your morning breakfast. You put your briefcases that you packed last night and put them in the back of Applejack’s van, since that Pinkie’s van is gone, you have to use AJ’s. (Sucks doesn’t it?)
“Oh hey!” Sunset said as she stops you from putting your last briefcase in the van. “Your parents wanted me to give you this.” She pulls out an object from her leatherjacket pocket, and… wait, is that a necklace?
“A necklace?”
“Yeah.” She said as she hands it to you. She also pulls out a note with it that reads…
“Hi, this necklace that we’re giving you is a Talisman that was given to me by your grandfather. It’s suppose to protect you from any harm whatsoever. Keep this with you as much as you can, and stay safe while you’re in Oklahoma with your friend’s cousin, Dad.”
Why would your dad give you a necklace that… represents good luck or something? Nothing bad is going to happen to you, right?
You let out one long yawn as you kept staring at the necklace..
“Ya’ll ready? Ah hope you don’t have to go to the bathroom while we’re on the road!”
Sunset Shimmer faces to you. “You ready sleepy head? You can sleep beside me as long as you like.” You can’t help but smile the best you can at her. As you stare at the necklace for a minute or so, you put it on and huh, it actually looks lovely on you to be honest.
“Come on slow pokes!” You hear Rainbow Dash in the van. You and Sunset both walked to the van. She gets in first and you get in last. Good, everyone’s in. You shut the door with all the strength that you have. You’re still not fully awake yet.
“Okay. Ya’ll ready?” Applejack asked as she looked back at you and the others. You gave her a thumbs up while everyone says “Ready.”
“Alright. Good.”
“Wait Applejack!” Pinkie Pie interrupts. “Why can’t I drive? I’ve driven us all around Los Angeles before!”
“Cause this isn’t your van, Pinkie. It’s my van, and Ah’m the one that’s driving’ it.”
“That’s kind of true, Pinkie Pie.” Rarity said as she gets Pinkie’s attention. “Plus, your van got destroyed. Don’t you remember when we found it two weeks ago in a ditch where that horrible tornado tossed it?”
“Oh yeah, right.” Pinkie said as she gets a melancholy look on her face.
“Anyways, after that tornado we had here, I can’t leave my poor cat Opal alone anymore, and Sweetie Belle is with her friends down at the beach with my Mother and Father. Oh, she was so worried after that tornado.”
After Rarity finished her sentence. You let out, yet another yawn.
“Wanna get going guys?” Sunset asked. “I think sleeping beauty here really wants his sleep.”
“Alright. Here we go!” Applejack said as she put her foot on the gas, and away you go to Oklahoma.
* * *
A few hours has passed as Applejack is still driving, and you’re still sleeping on Sunset’s side. You’re leaning against her arm and holding her hand, she looks down at you and smiles as the sound of your breathing is heard from you. It’s quiet in the van though. Hearing nothing but the tires of the van, spinning on the road, and the music through the radio.
“Lost?” Sunset said to Applejack.
“No. We ain’t lost. Ah got a map right here.” Applejack said as she would look at it, then back up to watch the road.
“How is he?” Pinkie Pie asked as she gets in the conversation.
“He’s sleeping like a baby.” Sunset said as she holds you tightly as you’re sleeping. You moaned a little as she did so.
“Aww, he looks so cute!” Pinkie Pie said as she makes that… That damn face when she sees cute animals, other than Fluttershy.
“Wow. I’ve never seen him sleep this long before.” Fluttershy said as she can see you from behind you. “How long has it been?”
“I think it’s been four hours already?” Rainbow Dash said as she looks out the window. “Are we there yet?”
“Not yet, Rainbow.” Applejack said as she’s still driving.
“How long is it until we get there?” Rarity asked as she pulls out a map of her own. “Hmm… Okay, so we’re here and, to get there, it’s about… Four more hours away?”
“Yep.” Applejack said as she doesn’t take her eyes off the road.
“Ugh! The horror!” Rarity said as she lays back in the seat feeling frustrated.
“Calm down, Rarity. It’ll be alright. We’re only like what… maybe 100 miles left?”
“Damn roads! Why couldn’t we just take the plane?”
“Cause the airport got destroyed by that last tornado we had.”
“Oh, right.” Rarity said as she blushed in embarrassment. She completely forgot about that last tornado that you all had last month. Damn, was it that bad?“Anyways, how is he back there? He’s been awfully quiet ever since we left.”
“He’s out cold Rarity.” Sunset Shimmer said as she rubs her thumb on your hand. “I don’t think he slept much from packing last night. So he’ll wake up soon, eventually.”
“No wonder I haven’t heard him say anything for the past four and a half hours.” Then an idea pops into her. “We should take a picture of him sleeping.”
“I wouldn’t wanna do that.” Sunset said as she stops her from pulling out her phone. “He might get pissed.”
“Oh he’ll get over it.”
“Fine.” Rarity finally stopped her taking picture mode, and went into texting mode as she leaned back a bit more. You just cuddled a bit more into Sunset Shimmer and your eyes still closed. She must be wondering what you’re dreaming about right now. But she can’t walk into your mind sadly, so her wild guess must be that you’re into the greatest land of slumber you’ve ever had in a car.
* * *
About two more hours have passed, and you’re still asleep from this really long car ride, and you only have two more hours to go. Applejack hasn’t stopped to take a break from driving since this morning. She must be exhausted after driving non-stop for such a long time.
Finally, she stops at a resting place on the highway. She finds a parking space and she then proceeds to start stretching her arms and legs after she turns the car off.
“Whoo-wee! What a drive. Ya’ll wanna stretch for a little bit?”
“Yeah.” Said Twilight. “We’ve been in here since this morning, at least, I can finally stretch. Isn’t that right, Spike?” Twilight said to her dog as he barked once.
“Yes, I thing Opal has to use the bathroom.” Rarity said as she grabbed a leash from her purse, and attached it to her cat. “Come on, Opal darling.” Rarity said as she opened the door, and stretched her limbs as she lets Opal down. Same with Twilight as Sunset Shimmer wakes you up.
You slowly open your eyes as the sunlight immediately hits your eyes. Sunset kisses you on the cheek as you’ve been awaken.
“It’s time to wake up, sleeping beauty.” She whispered to you. You slowly start to rise up, and rub your tired eyes and stretched.
“No we’re not there yet if you’re wondering.” She said when she kissed you on the lips. “Come on, let’s take a second to stretch.”
You just nod without saying a word as you open the door. Before you exited, you grabbed your sunglasses and put them on. You take a step out as you and Sunset stretched your limbs. As you’re stretching, you hear your own joints pop. You see the others sitting on some benches and chatting as you and Sunset approached them.
“Well look who’s finally awake.” Applejack said as she sees you. “How was your sleep, partner?” You still kept quiet as you rubbed your eyes behind the sunglasses you’re wearing. “Ah bet it was great. Did you dream about… Ah don’t know… Maybe a strip club or somethin’?” She asked as everyone started to giggle. You blushed a little as she said that.
After thirty minutes of break time, It’s time for you guys to hit the road again after you bought yourself drinks from the soda machine. Sitting in the same spot as before when you left this morning, you proceeded to pull out your iPod , as you jam to some of your tunes that you have Including, “Lamb of God.”
Yes, you’ve known that band for a while now. You just love their music, It’s like heaven to your ears. Even with your famous “Lamb of God” T-Shirt that you’re wearing right now, along with the Talisman that you’re also wearing. The one your Father gave you.
***
At long last, you’re finally in Oklahoma. It’s not what you really expected. It’s kind of like a deserted state, or… you can’t explain it, all you can think of is thinking to yourself “It’s a shitty state!” But all in all, you have to get used to it.
It wasn’t long until Applejack drives into some kind of park that you’re all passing by, and it looks like you see people setting up a little ceremony and, you just wish that you can put your mind to what everyone’s going to celebrate. They’re putting up a sign that reads:
“Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of Oklahoma Bar-B-Q. We hope you enjoy.”
Bar-B-Q huh? What’s next, Buffalo meat? Anywho, you put that to the side and focus on listening to your music as you’re heading to Applejack’s cousin, which is hopefully not too far from where you’re at right now since that you’re in Oklahoma.
***
You’re still looking out the window of the van. You start to see a house that’s actually pretty big. Applejack starts to pull into the driveway. You pull out an ear-bud to talk to her.
“Are we here?”
“Yep, we’re finally here.” Applejack said happily as she puts the van on park. “Ah can’t wait to see him, he must’ve been worried to death about me from that horrible tornado last month.” You hear AJ mumble as she gets out of the van like a fly, and she walks to the door. You get out of the van as well, and same with Sunset Shimmer. The others get out behind you.
Applejack knocks on the front door of… Her cousin’s home and waits a little bit. He opens the door and has a state of shock on his face.
“Applejack? Is that you?” Applejack brings him into a hug. “It’s you, I’m so glad that you’re okay” “That tornado that hit Canterlot scared the holy hell out of me.” He said as he gets into tears.
“Ah know. It scared me too, Braeburn. I’m so happy that ah get to see you.” Oh so that must be his name. Applejack and Braeburn break the hug, and Braeburn notices that Applejack’s not alone.
“So these are your friends that you’ve been talkin’ about?”
“Yep.” Applejack said as she introduces both you and Sunset Shimmer last.
“Oh well, it’s really nice to meet them. Why won’t ya’ll come in.” Applejack and the others walked in the house along with you walking behind them as you’re holding Sunset’s hand. His house looks cool, consider he lives in Oklahoma.
“Hey buddy.” Braeburn said as he sees you. “I’m Braeburn, Applejack’s cousin. It’s nice to meet you.” You take your hand (The one that’s not holding Sunset’s hand) and shake his hand.
“It’s nice to meet you too, Braeburn.” You said as you smile at him. He looks cool to you. “This is Sunset Shimmer, my girlfriend.” You said as you hold her as she waves at him with a smile on her face.
“Well it’s nice to meet you both. Come on in and relax.” Braeburn said as you both sat down on one of the couches and you lean onto Sunset while you start to hold the necklace in your hand as you’re still wearing it.
“You okay?”
“Yeah. I’m fine.” You said to her as you’re smiling. “I was just thinking.”
“About what?”
“About last month’s tornado, and Los Angeles’s tornado.”
“Oh. I see.” Sunset said as she held onto you a bit tighter.
“Is that why my dad gave me this Talisman? I have a feeling he did or something.”
“What makes you say that?”
“Well… The back of my mind keeps telling me that for some odd reason.” You said as now you just pictured the tornado that first touchdown in L.A. that’s still burned into your mind. You hate to admit, but that’s something that you’ll never forget. Especially that F5 that hit Canterlot last month.
“Hey, ya’ll hungry?” You hear Applejack’s voice from the kitchen. You looked at Sunset Shimmer, and you both shrugged. You both hopped up and walked to the kitchen. “Freshly baked potatoes and some other stuff that’s on the table. Dig in ya’ll!”
“Alright!” You hear Pinkie Pie. “Let’s do it!”
(Here we go again with Pinkie’s partyness.)
***
Later that night, you walked outside into the night sky. As you stood there, you look at the stars that’s above you as you hold the Talisman in your hand whenever it’s around your neck. You can’t stop thinking about that damn tornado, and how bad the disaster really was. It’s like… what happened to your last girlfriend. You still can’t get that out of your mind still. Ugh! It still haunts you to this very day.
“Hey.” You hear a familiar voice call out to you. You look behind you, and you see Sunset Shimmer standing there with that sad look on her face. “You coming to bed?”
“Yeah. I just… Need to think a little bit longer.” You said to her.
“I know. Come here.” She says as she brings you in for a hug as you hug her back. “It’ll be okay,” She says to you. “Come on. Let’s go to bed, to get your mind off of what happened. Please?” She gives you a warm smile, and you just look up at her. You sighed and nod. “Okay.” She said as she grabs your hand, and walks you up to your room that you’re staying in as you walk behind her.
Finally, you reached the room that the both of you are staying in till you go back home. Hopefully, you won’t have to stay here long as Canterlot is being rebuilt. Sunset Shimmer crawls into bed.
“You coming slowpoke?” She teased you.
“Who you calling slow?” You smirked at her. while you crawl into bed with her. She holds you tight as you’re now in the covers with your girlfriend. you both kissed each other goodnight, you start to feel your eyes getting a bit heavy just a few minutes after you closed your eyes. Let’s hope that this won’t be too bad for you.
***
It’s finally morning. You start to waken as you see beams of sunlight hit your eye lids. You slowly open them and… wait, where’s Sunset Shimmer? Oh well, at least you still have a few more minutes to yourself. You close your eyes again, and as you did so.
“Morning sleeping beauty.” You hear Sunset’s voice from behind you. You tossed over and you look at her.
“Oh hey, what’s up?”
“Nothing much. Just seeing if you’re awake.”
“Oh, okay.” You said as you smile at her. “What are you dressed for? We going somewhere?”
“Uh-huh. We’re going to the mall. Wanna come? I know you want to.” The mall huh? You shrugged.
“Sure. Let me get dressed first.”
“Alright.” Sunset said as she pecked you on the lips and walked out the door, shutting it behind her as she winked at you. You sit up and start to stretch your limbs. Damn, best good night’s sleep you’ve ever had since the night before.
No time has passed as you picked out the clothes of your choice, and walked downstairs to see that everyone, including Braeburn is ready.
“Oh hi, darling.” Said Rarity when she saw you. “Sleep well?”
“I did. Best sleep I’ve ever had since the night before.”
“Oh I’m glad to hear that.” Rarity said to you. “And by the way. How did things with you and Sunset Shimmer go?” She lowers her voice.
“Huh?”
“Did you and Sunset… have some fun in the bed last night?” Rarity giggles after she finishes her sentence. You just blushed a little. “Oh dear, I’m just teasing you.” She said. Let’s go to the mall shall we?
“What was that all about?” You hear Braeburn behind you. “Are they always like this to you?”
“Yeah, they always tease me if I did my girlfriend or not. I really hate it when they do that.” You said to Braeburn. “Even Applejack does it too.”
“I don’t blame you, man.” Braeburn said to you as he pats your back. “I’m really sorry that they do this to you. But let’s just hang out and have some fun.”
“Yeah, hanging out would be lovely.” You said as you walked out of the house and to Applejack’s van. You get into the side that you rode in on your way to Braeburn's. In no time, you’re now on your way to the mall of Oklahoma.
After only a few minutes of driving later. Huh, you never expected the mall to be like thirty minutes away from Braeburn's place.
In Los Angeles, you could get to the mall in like less than thirty minutes. You pass a little town that’s like… a bit smaller than Canterlot to be exact.
Eventually, you arrived at the Oklahoma mall. Huh, still like the one in Los Angeles. (if it’s still there.)
You all get out of your vehicles and start walking to the entrance of the mall as you hold Sunset Shimmer’s hand as you walk in.
It’s like the other malls that you’ve been to, awesome.
“Hey buddy.” Braeburn said as he gets your attention. “Did you have a girlfriend before Sunset Shimmer? Just curious.” That question that he just asked immediately made your face turn into a depressed look. “You alright man? Was it something I said?”
“Uh Braeburn?” Applejack said as she grabs his attention. “Ah don’t think he wants to talk about that. His last girlfriend passed away in a car accident months ago.”
“Oh.” Braeburn said as he now knows that you did in fact, had a girlfriend before Sunset Shimmer. “Hey man. I’m sorry if I hurt your feelings.”
“It’s okay.” You said to him. “You didn’t know.” You give him a warm smile letting him know that you’re alright with what he just asked you. But, hopefully, he’ll never ask you the same question again after your last girlfriend passed away.
As the day goes by, you shopped at some shops. But you didn’t buy anything since that there’s really nothing that you like here anyways. As the shopping’s done, you all walked out with Twilight having a bag that’s filled with some goodies, Applejack bought herself a new purse, Rarity bought herself some perfume, and Sunset Shimmer bought herself a picture frame. Wonder what she needs that for. But Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie didn’t buy anything. Now, all of you are heading back to Braeburn’s place to chill and hang out today.
Maybe there’ll be something to do there besides just sitting in bed all damn day.
***
As you’re sitting next to Sunset on your way back to Braeburn’s place, you drive pass by that… Same celebration thing that’s close to the mall. How did you miss the celebration that’s so close to the mall? Eh, you don’t wanna think about that right now.
“Hey Applejack.” You call out to her. “What’s with the Bar-B-Q celebration thing?”
“Oh, that? That’s something that people here in Oklahoma celebrate every year. It’s been going on for a hundred years now. Well it’ll be the one hundredth year anniversary next week.” AJ chuckles.
“Oh.” Was all you could say. “I see.”
“Why, you want some Bar-B-Q or something?” Sunset said as she gets your attention. You shake your head.
“Nah, I’m not in the mood for Bar-B-Q right now.” You said to her. She giggles as you hold her hand a little bit till you reached Braeburn’s place.
***
Finally, you reached Braeburn's place once more. As he unlocks the door, you all get out and entered his place. You and Sunset sat back on the couch and turned on the television. Eh, watching some of “The Walking Dead” can’t hurt. Oh, this is the part where they lose the prison, and the Governor dies at the end of the episode.
“Ohh this one’s my favorite.” Sunset said to you as she leans closer to you.
“Mine too.” You said to her as you lean right back to her.
“The Walking Dead, huh?” You hear Braeburn say. “I love this show.”
“Well what are you waiting for?” You said to him. “Come join the zombie apocalypse.” Braeburn slams himself down on the couch as he joins you two watching “The Walking Dead.” Maybe it’ll be a little movie night for you guys soon when you get a chance.
As the episode ends, you, Sunset Shimmer, and Braeburn head to the kitchen to see that everyone else is eating leftover stuff from this morning.
“You’re still eating those biscuits?” You asked.
“Uh… yeah?” Rainbow said as she gives you that devious smirk on her face. “Why, does it bother you?”
“Nope.”
“Oh really, did it bother you when you wanted Sunset Shimmer so badly after you pounded her last month?”
“What?!” You said as your face turned red as a rose. Everyone laughed, including Sunset Shimmer. Braeburn didn’t laugh though.
As everyone stopped laughing, they went to the living room just to chill out a little. Braeburn calls you out by your name.
“Do they always do this to you?”
“Yeah, they do.” You said to him as you put your hands in your pants pocket.
“I feel bad for you, bro.” He said to you as he pats you on the back and walks to the living room as well. You just stood there, just minding your own business, not saying a single word.
***
(This next part’s the dream)
Meanwhile...
You and Sunset are standing outside the little bridge just outside of town, and the both of you are just chilling on the railings. Having your back's up against them, and Sunset’s just sitting right across from you.
“So, now what?” You chuckled as you talk to Sunset Shimmer.
“Well… I was thinking maybe while we’re in Oklahoma. Maybe we could-” Sunset pauses with her face turning into a stage of shock when you feel wind barely picking up. “Oh my god.” She mumbles.
“What.” You said to her. Sunset calls you out by your name with her voice shaking a little. “What.” You said as you look up from your phone. She points at something behind you, and as you turn around, your face turns into a state of shock. You see some dirt spinning on the ground, and you look up just a little and you noticed that a tornado is forming.
“Shit.” You mumbled to yourself. As you stare at the forming vortex, you put your hand to your chest to see if the Talisman’s there, but it’s not.
“My Talisman. Where’s my Talisman?!”
“Forget the damn Talisman!” Sunset Shimmer said as she gets a bit worried.
“Let’s go, come on!” You said. As soon as the tornado touched the ground, you both rushed into your car, turned the key, and drove off. Leaving the tornado on your tail. Rain starts to hit the windshield as you try to look for the Talisman.
“I’ve got to find the Talisman or we’re fucked!” You said as you don’t stop driving. You both looked around and noticed that there’s tornadoes everywhere, but way far off from where you are. You continue to drive as you continue to search.
“The Talisman, I’ve got to find the Talisman!”
“Just drive!” Sunset yells as she’s now getting scared. She looks back and notices that the tornado hasn’t left your tail. This is bad.
You pull into a road as the tornado follows you both. You see another one now getting close up, and it looks like it’s about to hit a building, and it does.
“The Talisman! Where is it?!” You said as you search for it. Sunset Shimmer screams from the top of her lungs. As you looked up, you see a massive desk that’s now flying at you. You and Sunset both covered your faces with your arms.
As soon as that desk was about to hit you. You’ve now awaken from your nightmare, and you screamed a bit as you quickly wake up. Sweat fills your forehead and you put your hand to your chest as you feel your Talisman around your neck. As you’re sitting there breathing heavily, your phone goes off. You quickly answer it.
“Hello...?” You said panting.
“Turn on the TV. Local news. I’ll be up in a sec.” You hear Sunset Shimmer through the phone.
“...Okay…” You said as you hung up, grabbed the remote, turned on the TV and noticed that a town has been destroyed. What happened? Has there been a really bad storm or something? A knock appears on your door and as you were getting dressed, you opened it.
“Hey.” Sunset said as she hugged you. “I heard you scream. Are you alright?”
“Yeah.” You said. “It was just a nightmare.”
“Man. Ah can’t believe this happened.” You hear Applejack as she and the others watched the TV.
“It’s awful.” Said Twilight. You start to stare at the TV screen when you get a confused look on your face.
“What happened? It looks like a fucking war zone.”
“Tornado.” Said Sunset Shimmer which left a look of shock on your face.
“What? Here in Oklahoma this late?”
“Yep. The first ever, outside of season.”
“Holy shit.” You said as you stare at the screen, not even taking your eyes off of it.
“Also, tornado season was last month.” You hear Braeburn. “There’s no way one could of hit outside of season.”
“How can one hit outside of season?” Asked Pinkie Pie. “Didn’t one hit us when it WAS outside of season?”
“No, that tornado hit us IN season, Pinkie!” Said Rainbow Dash.
“Oh.”
“I might know what caused this.” Said Braeburn as he gets that look on his face.
“What is it?” You asked without thinking.
He turns to you and he gets that scared look on his face. Whatever he’s about to say will either shock you, or possibility be a lie. One of the two.
“Meta Tempesta.”
As he says that. Everyone, including Applejack looks at him.
“Uh… Meta what now?” Applejack says as she looks at her cousin.
“Meta Tempesta.” Braeburn said. “Don’t you get it? Meta Tempesta might be behind all this.”
“Um… Okay?” You said to him. “What the hell’s a “Meta Tempesta?”” You asked.
“The “Meta Tempesta” is like a storm that can be more powerful than you think.” Braeburn says. “Only it’s controlled by someone that has the power to stop it also. The only way to stop it is if that person gets killed.”
This still leaves your face into confusion. You have no idea whether you should say anything or stay silent. You’ve never heard of “The Meta Tempesta” before. Not even once in your lifetime. Is it even real?
“Where did you learn this?” You asked Braeburn.
“A friend of mine showed me on a tape a long time ago. He’s in prison right now, so you’ll have to talk to him. I didn’t believe him at first until I saw it with my own eyes.”
“And why was he sent to prison?” You asked.
“They think he’s crazy. Or he might be sent to an Asylum Hospital. Wait, no he’s in Prison.”
“When was the last time you visited him?”
“Last month.”
“Damn.” You said as you looked at Sunset Shimmer. “I think I need to know more about this whole “Meta Tempesta” thing myself, because I’ve never heard of it.”
“Oh, trust me.” Braeburn said to you. “It’s real. I can take you to the prison and you can talk to him. We can go right now.”
“Now?” You said.
“Now, I’ll drive. Applejack wanna come with us?” Applejack looks at you, and then back at her cousin.
“Ah guess so.” She said as she walks with Braeburn.
“Why not.” You said as you face to Sunset Shimmer. “Wanna go?”
“Sure. Let’s see what it’s all about.” She said as she grabs your hand and holds it tightly.
“Uh… See you later. I guess.” You hear Rarity as you all walked out the door and into Braeburn's car.
“What’s the “Meta Tempesta?”” Rarity asked. The others shrugged in response. “Ugh! I think he’s crazy as hell.”
“Yeah, same.” Rainbow Dash said as she crossed her arms.
“I’m not sure if I should believe him or not, but I have a feeling that something might be up with what Braeburn was talking about.” Said Twilight as she holds Spike in her arms and looks at the TV. “I hope it’s not as bad as those tornadoes we were in before.”
“I’ll have to agree.” Pinkie Pie said as they all looked at the TV.
***
As Braeburn is driving his car to the prison, he starts talking about why his friend is in prison, Sunset is sitting beside you, and Applejack is sitting up front with her cousin.
Just about thirty minutes later, you’ve arrive at the place.
“My god, we’re here.” Braeburn calls out.
“Are we at the prison already?” Applejack asked.
“Yeah, we’re here. But, I don’t know if he wants to see me though. So someone else has to go in there.” As Braeburn finishes his sentence he looks at you.
“What.” You said to him until you put the pieces together. “Hell no, I’m not gonna do it, god dammit!” You said as you crossed your arms.
“Hey.” Sunset said as she puts her hand on your arms. “I’ll go in with you.” She gives you a sweet smile, letting you know that you won’t be alone while you’re in the place.
“Fine.” You said as you unbuckled your seatbelt. “You guys owe me.”
“Alright.” Applejack said as she puts her hands in the air. You and Sunset walked out of the car and as you walked to the entrance, Braeburn calls you.
“The name’s “Michael McCoy!” He said.
“Okay!” Was your response. As you were about to enter, you looked back again and noticed that dark clouds are heading your way.
“Hey, you coming, slow poke?” Sunset asked you as she’s at the front door.
“Oh yeah, sorry.” You said as you ran inside with her.

“Ah. Michael McCoy huh?” Said the guard. “Why are you both here to see him?” He chuckles.
“Well we’re a friend of… his old friend and-”
“Ah yes. Braeburn is it?”
“How do you…” You said as you try to think.
“He came here last month.”
“Oh.” Was all you can say. You forgot that Braeburn visited him last month.
“Yeah. He came here last month and Michael started yelling at him for some reason, and he hasn’t been back ever since.”
“Huh.” You said as you and Sunset looked at each other.
“Yeah. His cell’s right over there.” The guard said as he pointed at it. “Good luck.”
“Thanks.” Sunset said as you both started walking to his cell. You bring out a flashlight and start searching for him. He doesn’t appear to be here, unless he might be hiding. The bars are only at your height, and he could be hiding in the door if he’s there.
“Uh… Hello?” You said as you’re hoping that there’s an answer. But there isn’t, so you tried again. “Hello, Mr. McCoy? Mr. McCoy are you there?”
Still no answer. You look back at Sunset Shimmer and she’s getting that worried look on her face.
“Uh… Mr. McCoy. I know you don’t know us but we’re a friend to Braeburn, your old friend?” Still no answer. “Hello?”
Until… He pops up. “Braeburn huh? You know that stupid sick bastard?!” He has a long beard, and his hair looks really messed up. You also noticed that he has on some… old clothes. Damn, what has he been through in here, and how long has he been in here?
“Mr. McCoy.” You said to calm him down. “Remember Braeburn, your friend?”
“Yes, I remember that asshole! He tried to get me killed from that whole “Meta Tempesta” shit!” He roars.
“No, listen. We came to ask you a question.” You said to him.
“Okay then. What is it?”
“What do you know about the Meta Tempesta?” You asked him.
“The Meta Tempesta?” He said as he thinks. “Oh god. It’s coming! It’s coming, I know it! You must leave now! The end is near!”
Wait, he didn’t answer your question. What’s wrong with him? All of a sudden, you start to hear wind, and thunder that interrupts your thinking. You look back as you start to see some grass and dirt fly to the window, but not with full force as the wind start to quickly pick up.
“Oh shit!” McCoy yells from the top of his lungs.
“What’s happening?’ Sunset Shimmer whispers in your ear. She’s getting scared. A branch starts to break through the window and you feel like maybe 70-80 MPH winds.
“Oh fuck. Hang on to something!” You yelled through the brutal winds. You held on to what looks like a small pipe that might be strong enough. Sunset holds your hand and also holds onto something. The wall that’s right across from you starts to crack and crumble. And in no time, a hole is in the wall and you can see that a tornado has already formed.
McCoy’s cell breaks and flies to the direction of the tornado, making the hole in the wall even bigger. You grab a hold of McCoy’s hand with your other hand as the brutal winds take over.
“Hang on!” You yelled through the terrifying winds, the screams from the inmates, guards, and Sunset Shimmer.
“What is the Meta Tempesta! Please! META TEMPESTA!” You yelled as loud as you can.
“META TEMPESTA!” McCoy says through the winds.
“Yes! Explain what it is!”
“You must stop it before it arrives!” He yells. “It’s the only option!”
“Answer my question! What is Meta Tempesta!?! Please, remember, Michael!” You said as a loud thunder takes over, and the tornado hasn’t left that spot when you look at it as you try to hold onto McCoy as tight as you can.
“It’s not gonna last!” Sunset said as she sees that wall cracking.
“I can’t hold on much longer!” You yelled. “He’s slipping.” McCoy doesn’t seem to be listening what you were saying. He starts to slip out of your hand and walks to the tornado, as if the wind is making him walk. You and Sunset Shimmer looked at each other as you watch McCoy walk to the tornado and starts screaming. You start to think back at Los Angeles, and Canterlot when those tornadoes hit. As you watched, you see him get picked up into the air, and the wind starts to slowly die down, and the tornado disappears.
“Fuck.” You mumbled to yourself when you see the wall come down. “Braeburn will love this.”
***
You and Sunset walked out of the prison, as you both noticed that there’s debris all over the car. Surprisingly, it didn’t get tossed up into the air like McCoy did.
“Oh shit.” Sunset mumbled to herself.
“Applejack?! Braeburn?!” You yelled as you get the debris off the car. You opened the door, but they’re not in it. This is bad.
“Over here!” Applejack calls out from far behind you. You looked back and you both noticed that they’re in a ditch, just outside the prison. You and Sunset ran to them.
“Thank god you’re okay!” Applejack said as she hugged you and Sunset both. “We thought we lost you.”
“We thought so too.” You said as you broke the hug and got the debris off the car.
“How’d it go?”
“Well.” You start to explain. “He didn’t answer my fucking question before that tornado hit. Probably an F1 on the scale if I’m not mistaken.”
“What about Michael?” Braeburn asked. You and Sunset stopped and looked at each other. Then back at Braeburn, you hate to give him the bad news.
“He’s gone.” Was your response.
“He didn’t… Did he?” He asked. You nod your head.
“I’m sorry, Braeburn.”
“That’s alright.” He said to you. “Come on, let’s get this debris off and head back to the house.”
“Good idea.” You said as you and the others helped get the debris off the car.
As soon as it’s clear, Braeburn starts the engine, and races back to the house. Let’s hope the others are okay.
***
At last in no time later, you reached Braeburn’s house as you and the others rushed inside to see that if Twilight, Rainbow, Pinkie, and Rarity are alright. Though the house didn’t get destroyed, you still wanted to make sure.
“Guys?” Your voice trailed off in the house. You start to hear footsteps quickly coming down the stairs of Braeburn’s house. It’s Twilight.
“Oh thank god you’re okay!” She said as she ran up to hug you, same with the others.
“We thought we lost you!” Said Rarity in the conversation. “We saw that tornado that was at the prison. We thought we were going to lose you all!”
“I thought so too.” You said as you held them tightly. Sunset, Applejack, and Braeburn all joined in to let you guys know that you’re okay. You took a deep breath and broke the hug.
“Okay.” You said as you calm yourself down.
“So what did you get? Anything?” Rainbow Dash asked.
“He wouldn’t answer my damn question. I tried to get him to talk about this whole Meta Tempesta shit that Braeburn's talking about. But that tornado hit and…” You paused, you don’t know how to finish. “He got… tossed up into the air.”
“No!” Rarity said in a state of shock.
“It’s true.” You said as you put your hands in your pocket. Sunset Shimmer walks up behind you and puts her arm around you. “He was slipping out of my hand and he walked to the tornado as if the fucking wind was taking him.”
“Hey.” Sunset Shimmer said to you. She puts her finger to your chin to meet your gaze. She smiles at you. “It’s not your fault. You couldn’t hold on any longer, and he slipped from you. He might of gotten himself into death.” She said to you as her smile never leaves yours.
“I think you’re right.” You said as you smile at her. Even though that there was nothing you could do to save McCoy, but you did try your best to hold onto him for dear life when the tornado struck.
“Hey guys!” Braeburn said getting all of your attention.
“What is it, Braeburn?” Applejack asked.
“I just got a letter from my other friend, Thomas.”
“Who’s Thomas?” You asked.
“He’s the guy that’s in charge of the whole Bar-B-Q celebration this afternoon.” Braeburn said all excited like.
The Bar-B-Q celebration huh? You remember driving by that place for… Two days now? Anyway, you start to think back when you kept seeing that man in the suit that sets up the stuff with other people’s help. It must be a really big celebration.
“And we’re all invited! He wants to meet you guys!”
“That’s great, Braeburn!” Applejack said while she got that smile on her face and hugged her cousin. “When can we meet him?”
“We can leave now to go there if you guys are up for it.” Braeburn said to you and the others.
“Hey, if you guys are up for it, I’m up for it.” You said as you shrugged in response.
“Alright. Let’s go.” Sunset Shimmer said as she wraps her arms around you from behind you. “You lead the way.”
“Alright.” You chuckled as you walked to Braeburn’s car, and Applejack’s van to get to the celebration thing that’s going on in town square.
***
About ten minutes have passed and you’ve arrived at the celebration of “The Oklahoma Bar-B-Q.” and a lot of people are here. This is surprising.
“My friend!” You hear a man. You look to your side and you see that man in the black suit. Is this that man of “Thomas” that Braeburn was talking about?
“Thomas. What’s up, man?” Braeburn said as he hugged his friend. “How are you?”
“I’m doing marvelous. It’s been a month since we hanged out, bro.”
“I know right?”
“Did you know this guy before, AJ?” You said to Applejack.
“Ah don’t even know him. Ah’v met him before, ah don’t like him.”
“What do you mean?” Sunset Shimmer said getting in the conversation.
“Sometimes, when he hangs out with Braeburn it would be like maybe thirty minutes or an hour, he would always say “I gotta go somewhere. I don’t have time to hang out more.” It’s just that he says it in a weird tone in his voice. It makes me think that something's up.”
“How should we know that he’s up to something?” You ask him.
“Just watch.” Applejack said to you. You just stood there as your arms are now crossed.
About a few minutes have passed and Thomas and Braeburn are still chatting about… whatever they’re chatting about. Until…
“Hey man. I gotta go somewhere, I’ll talk to you when I get back.”
“Where are you going?”
“Oh.. uh… I gotta go get gas for my car, just in case so I won't have to wait on the side of the road for a tow truck.”
“Oh. Um… Okay then.” Braeburn said in a somewhat confusion tone in his voice. “I’ll talk to you when I get back.”
“Alright cool.” Thomas said as he rushed to somewhere. Could he be heading for his car?
“See what ah mean?” Applejack said as she makes eye contact with you.
“Huh, how do you know what he’s planning?” You asked.
“...Follow him?” Sunset said as that just came out of her mouth. You looked at her.
“What?”
“Follow him. You and I can take this, we’ll see what this little shit head’s up to.”
“Uh… Are you fucking crazy?”
“Actually, she’s right.” Applejack said as she agrees with her. “Here, take Braeburn’s car. If you use my van, you’ll probably be spotted. Be careful.”
“I’m not stalking no dude that you think that’s some kind of terrorist!”
“Would you do it for me?” Sunset said as she gets into the puppy dog face mode. This is already breaking your heart when she makes that face.
“Gah! Fine.” You said as you now give up. “Let’s go.”
“Be careful!” Applejack said as she waves “See you in a little bit” to you. You both waved back. You take the driver side, and Sunset takes the passenger side. As you start the engine, you begin to pull out of the dirt driveway where Thomas is headed.
“You owe me one.” You said as you start driving behind your suspect, sort of.
***
5:00 PM.
It’s been about ten minutes and you’re driving somewhere you never expected. It’s like you’re heading to the woods, and… you proceeded to drive the car behind the bushes so he won’t see you. You turn the car off and parked it as you spied on him to see what this little bastard’s up to.
“What are you doing?” Sunset asked you.
“Get down so he won’t see us.” You said to her as she did as she was told. You turn the ignition just slightly so you can crack the window to hear what he’s saying.
He’s now outside with… Wait, who’s that?
“Ah, Alan, good to see you.” You hear Thomas.
“And good to see you too, friend.” You hear Alan. So that’s his name? What is he like a friend to Thomas or something?
“Shall we head to the temple?” Alan asked Thomas
“Let’s do it.” Thomas said as both him, and Alan are now walking to the… Temple? What temple?
As you see them disappear, you turn the ignition to roll your window back up.
“Temple?” You asked.
“I think it’s about time we find out what this temple is.” Sunset said as she gets a feeling in the back of her mind that something’s up. Even though you might be afraid to find out, you have to agree with her, no matter what.
“Let’s go.” You said to her as she nods. The both of you gently walk out the car. The shutting sound of the car doors didn’t travel from you to where Thomas and Alan might be at.
“Come on.” You whispered as you and Sunset kneeled down and walked to the bushes so nobody would see you both. No sign of the temple.
“All clear.” You whispered as you and Sunset kept walking, but kept down. After a few minutes of walking and whispering, you come across to a strange looking building that… looks really old, and looks like it’s from medieval times. Who knows?
“What the hell is that?” You whispered to yourself. You start to hear some mumbling going on into the building.
As you were listening, you start to see that the ground is becoming a shadowy red type, you look up and… oh no.
“Oh my god.” You whispered as you see a blood red moon cover up the sun. This isn’t a good sign.
You held onto your Talisman to hope that this isn’t some kind of “End of the World” thing that you’re hoping that it’ll never happen. Maybe way after you die.
“What’s going on?” Sunset Shimmer asked you as she’s now getting really scared.
“I don’t know.” You whispered to her.
“Today, Meta Tempesta will rise!” You hear someone in the building. Wait, is that what Meta Tempesta’s all about?
Braeburn said it was some type of storm that… Oh no.
“Come on.” You whispered, as you and Sunset are now walking up the stairs to the temple like building. You both peaked in the doorway and you noticed that there are people that have red coats, and red hoodies on their heads. This is bad.
“What’s this whole Meta Tempesta thing? Was Braeburn right about this?” Sunset asked.
“Only one way to find out.” You said to her. You look to your right and noticed that there’s a little doorway that leads to… somewhere. “Look.” You said pointing to the door.
“Go check it out.” Sunset whispered to you.
“You crazy? Why can’t you come with me so you won’t get caught?”
“I’ll be fine right here. Just go.” She said to you as she pushed you a bit. No noise is heard.
“If you insist, mom.” You whispered as you tip-toed to the doorway. You slightly take another peak inside of it. There inside was Thomas.
He’s holding a knife in his right hand and it looks like that they’re… What are they doing?
“What the hell’s he doing?” You whispered to yourself. But as soon as you said that.
“Ah, welcome to the temple, friend.” Said Thomas as he speaks to someone else. Friend? Who are they-
Your thoughts were interrupted by Sunset Shimmer being taken in by a two red coated guys that are helping her. Oh shit, this is bad. You have to save her.
“You son of a bitch, I knew there was something wrong with you, I knew it!” Sunset yelled from the top of her lungs. As she screamed at him as loud as she could. The sun is finally out, leaving the blood red moon to another destination. Probably.
“Oh shit.” You mumbled. You felt a tap three times on your shoulder. You turn around and a strange man begins to punch you. You immediately duck as he throws another punch. You catch it with your fist and you punch him right back. Hard enough to make him hit his face on the concrete railing.
Another man charges up to you and throws his punches. You catch them every time with each punch and you punched him hard enough to throw him off the side of the concrete railing. It’s like ten to fifteen feet off the ground, and the man that was throwing his punches at you passed out on the ground as soon as his head met the ground with a solid “Whack”.
***
“What are you gonna do with me?!” Sunset Shimmer said in anger. “Let me go!”
“Ah, but you haven’t heard.” Thomas said in a low, creepy voice.
“Heard what?”
“That we must make a little sacrifice to the Meta Tempesta.”
“Huh?”
Thomas snapped his fingers as a red coated man walked in with a cup. He pulls out a knife and Sunset Shimmer starts to freak out.
“Time to go bye-bye.” Thomas said to her. Until…
“Hey, asshole.” Your voice comes in from nowhere as you tap on Thomas’s shoulder.
“Huh?” He said as he turned around, and you punch him directly across the face. His face hits the floor and his troop that was holding the cup starts throwing his fists at you. You catch each one and punch him as hard as you can until he passes out.
“Let’s go, hurry, come on!” You said as both you and Sunset Shimmer ran out of the temple.
“Get them!” You hear Thomas’s voice.
“Where are they headed?” Alan asked
“To the celebration, let’s go!”
You and Sunset are running to your car as fast as your legs can take you.
“I think I know something” You said to her as you’re running. “Remember when Braeburn said that the Meta Tempesta caused downtown Oklahoma to be destroyed by a tornado last night?”
“Yeah why?”
“I just thought, back at the damn prison when that McCoy guy didn’t answer my question. I bet he was on their side one time and now he wanted to tell us to stop it all before it’s too late. Don’t you get it? A tornado’s headed there. The Bar-B-Q, we gotta warn the others!”
“Oh my god!” Sunset’s probably thinking that you could be right. This whole Meta Tempesta thing could be true, and it’s a bad storm that’s worse than you think of. Let’s hope it’s not.
You both quickly got into your car and started the engine. As soon as you stomp on the gas, you see that Alan and Thomas are now standing in front of your way.
“Oh shit!” Sunset screamed.
“Hang on!” You said as you stepped on it. They don’t seem to be moving.
“Kiss this, bitch!” You screamed as you floored it all the way to the floor of the car, making the car go faster as Sunset Shimmer holds onto the thing that should be safe when a car’s going fast.
Both Alan and Thomas jumped out of the way, and as you pass by them, they got up as quickly as they could, they start to head for their car.
You and Sunset Shimmer are now racing against time to warn everyone about the tornado before it gets there. As you’re driving, you notice some dark clouds are now behind you as you look at your mirror.
“Oh shit!” You mumbled and you see a familiar car raceing behind you both.
“Oh shit!” Sunset screamed. “We’re being followed!”
“These shit heads don’t know what they’re getting themselves into, do they?” You said as you stomped on the gas. “Hang on!” You looked at your watch and it’s already 5:30 in the evening.
“Oh shit. Please tell me we don’t have long till this storm hits.” You mumbled to yourself as you don’t take your eyes off the road.
***
5:40 PM
Applejack, Twilight, Pinkie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Braeburn are all having a great time when Braeburn decides to give a speech.
“I thank you all for coming to this one hundreth celebration of the “Oklahoma Bar-B-Q, and I like to thank a friend of mine who’s in charge of putting up all the decorations, and all the other stuff. He’s somewhere which he should be back by now. But I would like to thank my good friend Thomas.” Braeburn said as everyone claps. Applejack looks up at the sky and notices that the grayish clouds are just above them. But the sun’s still out. That’s good right?
“Oh my god.” AJ mumbled to herself.
“Don’t we have to cancel it? It might rain.” Twilight asked as she holds her dog in her arms.
“Ah don’t know. But ah got a bad feeling about this storm here.”
***
5:50 PM
“Ten till six. Time’s running out!” You said as you looked at your watch.
“I gotta call Applejack.” Sunset Shimmer said as she grabs her phone from her pocket, and searches through her speed dial for AJ’s name.
“Come on, Applejack. Pick up, please.”
“They’re gaining on us!” You said as you looked back.
As Sunset Shimmer waits for an answer. The line goes out.
“Oh shit, no!”
“What’s wrong?”
“The damn line went out! Can’t we just try to make it there for god’s sakes? We don’t have much time left!”
“We’re gonna try. Hold on!” You said as you floored it.
***
5:55 PM
As you continue to drive, you see a sign that says “Celebration of Oklahoma’s Bar-B-Q. One hundredth anniversary.”
“We’re almost there.” Sunset said to you.
“So are they.” You said to her. You see a pile of watermelons that are not far from you and you’re getting really really close to them so quickly and also by another car. “Hang on. It’s now or never.” You said.
You pull to the side of the road, and as you immediately turned the wheel, Thomas and Alan have crashed into the pile of watermelons and crashed into the car. You’re pretty sure that you lost them.
“You’re quite a driver, babe.” Sunset said smiling at you.
“Thanks.”
***
5:56 PM
The dark skies fill the sky above the people at the Bar-B-Q celebration. A man that’s another friend of Braeburn is standing on the stage giving a speech.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you all, especially Braeburn, his cousin, and friends to come here on this very fine day. And as you all shall dive in on your meals. I do have this one little message to give out...ENJOY!” He said as people start cheering.
Braeburn congrats him on that really good speech.
“Say Braeburn. Where is Thomas at today?”
“He said he had to run an errand. He’ll be back. Which he should be back by now. Sorry Robert” Braeburn said to him.
“Ah. I see.” He said to him. Robert is another one of Braeburn’s friends. He had came in late right after you left to go spy on Thomas.
Him and Braeburn walk behind the stage and they saw you pull up.
“Hey, what are you two doing?” Braeburn asked.
“Braeburn, thank god!” Sunset said as you both ran up to him.
“Anyways, Sunset this is Rob-.”
“There’s no time for that!” You said to Braeburn.
“Why, what’s going on?”
Sunset Shimmer grabs him by the shoulders and speaks. “You’ve got to warn people. There’s a tornado, a GIANT tornado heading this way!”
“What?” Braeburns face turns into a state of shock. He looks up at the sky and notices that the dark clouds are roaming through the beautiful sky. “Robert come on, we got to warn everybody.”
“Let’s go!”
You try to run with Sunset Shimmer but, a pair of hands catch your wrist.
“Hey, what the hell?!” You screamed. Until… Thomas walks into your vision.
“Good day young man.” He said to you.
“You?!?” You said as you spit. “Why the hell are you doing this? You shouldn’t be doing this to everyone!”
“I can, and I will.”
***
“Applejack!” Braeburn cries out to her.
“Braeburn!” Applejack said as she hugged him. “What’s going on?”
“No time to explain. Listen, you need to get these people into the shelters now!”
“Why?”
“Meta Tempesta’s here.”
Applejack looks up, and notices that the dark clouds are slowly covering up the sun. Applejack now knows what’s going on, she knows that Braeburn might be telling the truth.
“Go ahead Braeburn.” Applejack said as she’s now getting scared.
***
“Listen here little boy, you don’t sneak up on me like that. Now, I’m gonna have you punished for a life-time.” Thomas said to you.
“Listen!” You hear Braeburn’s voice threw the microphone.
“See this?” Thomas shows you. “This is the ring of Vengeance.”
Braeburn’s voice is heard through the mic again. “The storm is coming!”
“Alan’s not the one who can call the Meta Tempesta.”
“Meta Tempesta!” Braeburns voice is heard again.
“You’re out of your goddamn mind. Meta Tempesta will kill everyone, everything, you too.” You said as you feel wind starting to blow just a calm force.
“We have to move to shelter!” Braeburn's voice said threw the mic again.
“Once again, young man, you’re mistaken.” Thomas said to you. “I control it.”
“Get your kids and move NOW!” Braeburn said as he finished the sentence.
“This will be a moment of truth for everyone.” He says to you. “Kill him.” He now walks away.
“You little piss head! YOU’RE FUCKING DEAD! YOU HEAR ME?!? DEAD!! MY FRIENDS, AND GIRLFRIEND! YOU’RE GONNA GET US ALL FUCKING KILLED!” You said as you’re voice trailed off in an echo.
Now people are screaming as they’re now running for their lives to seek shelter. The wind starts to pick up quick as the sky grows darker, and darker. Until they have a mix of dark red, orange color, and the clouds are now black.
“Ready to die, boy?”
“Fuck you!” You said as you kicked the man in the knee, and you punched both him and the other man to the ground. The wind picks up even faster, this is a really strong one. You hear a growling sound, it has a really deep creepy sound that you would hear on TV.
As the orange and black clouds are now covering up the sky, you look to your right and… Oh no You see lightning strike twice, and before you know it. A tornado quickly forms and immediately touches down.
This tornado isn’t the one you see with a naked eye at all. This one is all black, and it has that orange, dark red like color that you see on the edge of the tornado. This tornado is not on fire, but this is a really terrifying thing to see.
You start to run to the shelter where everyone’s headed to. You just can’t stop looking back at the tornado that’s… really scarier than the ones you saw.
It’s starting to move to your direction, and you try to call out for Sunset as you try to find her in the sea of everyone running from this monster.
“Sunset!” You called out for her. You try again. “Sunset Shimmer!” You felt something on your wrist gripping you tightly.
“What are you doing?! Come on!” Sunset screams as you’re both running to shelter. As you’re running, you look to your right and you see yet another black tornado forming and quickly touching down. This is the most terrifying thing you’ve ever seen in your whole life.
Finally, after what feels like you’ve been running forever, you reached the underground tunnels where it’s the safest place to be during a tornado warning. You get everyone down the stairs as the two twisters are roaming the entire celebration. You can see Fluttershy freaking out while Applejack and Rainbow Dash help her out.
“Come on, Fluttershy!”
“It’s okay, Fluttershy! Come on now, let’s getcha movin’ to the shelters!”
“Oh goodness!” Said Fluttershy. As she got close to you.
“Come on, Fluttershy! It’s okay!”
“There’s another one!”
“What?!” You shouted, and yet, now there are three tornadoes touched down. “Fuck!”
“Come on!” Rainbow Dash screams. “We need to move! Go, go, go!”
“I’ve never seen tornadoes like this before!” You hear Fluttershy.
“This is unbelievable!” You hear Applejack as she goes down the stairs with Fluttershy and Rainbow.
As everyone’s secure, you and Sunset stand outside and watch the tornadoes. There’s a helicopter flying to one of the tornadoes funnel. As you watched, another tornado touches down. How many are there going to be? Like a million?
“Oh my god!”
“Are they fucking stupid?!” You screamed. As you watched you hear a… really scary growling sound.
“What the hell was that?!” Sunset screamed.
“Look!” You pointed as the helicopter’s starting to lose its control as the brutal winds are about to take it over. You start to see a… Wait, what is that? Did you just see a face?
*Tornado Growls*
As you saw what looked like a face, you see the helicopter blow up, and that was the end of those people who were on the chopper.
“Look, kids!” You said as you spotted two kids on the ground scared. You and Sunset ran to grab one, to take them to the shelter. Sunset’s foot gets caught by a piece of debris while trying to take the kid to the underground shelter.
The child starts to cry as Sunset’s painful foot is stuck on the piece of debris. She struggles to get it off, and as she looks up. She could of sworn that she also saw what appeared to look like a face when the tornado growled loudly. Not like a frieght train or a jet engine flying in the sky.
***
You reached down the stairs and you see AJ, Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and even Braeburn.
“Where’s Sunset Shimmer?” Applejack asked.
You look back and noticed that she’s not behind you. “She was right behind me! Oh shit!” You hand the child to Applejack and she was glad to hold onto him as you went to go save Sunset Shimmer and the other child.
You run outside as you see her on the ground in pain, the child’s trying to help her out, but it’s no use. You went in and helped out too.
“It’s alright take her underground!” Sunset said to you.
“I’m not leaving you!” You said as you try your best to pick up the heavy object.
“Just do it!” Sunset said as she holds onto your Talisman that’s still around your neck and smiles at you. “It’s gonna be okay!”
As much as you didn’t want to leave her, she’s telling you that it’ll be alright. You look back at the child, then you looked at Sunset. You place your hand to hers as she’s still holding the Talisman. You look at the growling pitched black tornadoes with dark red lines on each side as your eyes witness what they’re seeing.
“I’ll be right back!” You said as you quickly picked up the child as Sunset sees you disappear into the underground tunnels. Sunset Shimmer is now trying her best to take the object off her foot, and in just no time later, it’s now off.
“Her ankle’s cut, and it’s too painful for her to walk. As Sunset tries to crawl through the brutal winds of the growling tornadoes. She can barely feel herself getting pulled into it. That is, until she sees you run out of the tunnel.
“Sunset!” You called out as you’re now carrying her. “You okay?!?”
“I’m fine!” She said to you as the tornadoes start to let out a really loud growl that rings your ears. You quickly take her to the underground tunnels just in time before the horrifying winds could take you. As you reached the bottom of the steps, you noticed that her ankle’s been cut.
“You okay?”
“Yeah, Thanks.” Sunset said as she kissed you on the lips. “I thought I was gonna…” She stopped herself as she was about to shed into tears. “That is… Until you came in.” You looked at Sunset Shimmer, and she looks at you. Neither of you speak a word until you were interrupted by the tornado growling.
What about Thomas? Is he down here? No, he must be outside controlling all of this. This may last for a while, and you have to put a stop to this.
“Can you guys take care of her for me?” You said to AJ.
“Where are you goin’?” Asked AJ.
“I’m gonna put a stop to this! Thomas is the one who controls this whole Meta Tempesta thing, and now it’s time for him to stop!”
“Are you crazy?” Sunset Shimmer asked you.
“I might be.” You looked at your Talisman, then back at Sunset Shimmer. “But what choice do we have?”
You can still hear the growlings of the tornado from outside as Sunset and the others think. She’s got to admit, you do have a point there. She grabs you, hugs you, and then kisses you.
“Good luck.” She whispers. You nod to her as you ran up the steps to end Thomas’s life.

Back outside, Thomas is standing beside the underground tunnels as he’s struggling to stand up at the brutal winds of the growling tornadoes. Dirt flying everywhere, and debris flying past him. You start to step outside.
“Hey, jackass!” You said getting his attention.
Thomas faces you, as the both of you started to throw fists at each other. He throws one, you catch it and you throw one across his face. You throw another one, and this time he catches it and he punches you across the face. His “Ring of Vengeance” hits you on your right cheek, making you bleed a little. You throw another one at him, and it goes to his face. He backs up a little bit, and as he did, you can see that one of the growling pitched black tornadoes coming straight towards you.
“You see little boy?” Thomas said to you, grabbing your attention. “I always win! Nothing will stop The Meta Tempesta!”
You start to feel your feet being dragged across the ground as the tornado gets closer and closer. You held onto a small handle-bar that’s attached to the building, so does Thomas. Now, the both of you are holding on for dear life, and you also hold your Talisman.
“Lightning flashes around you as the brutal winds and the loud growling noises take over. You look straight ahead of you and see that the object that Thomas is holding onto is starting to break.
Yours ,however, isn’t breaking at all as you hold onto your Talisman. You hear Thomas scream for what might be victory for a second.
As his object that he’s holding onto is about to snap right off. You used that middle finger on him, and the object breaks and there he goes up in the air. The tornadoes let out one last growl before you see them start to disappear into the sky.
You let go of the object and you start to walk down the shelter to tell everyone the good news.
“...It’s over…” You said in between pants. Everyone is now happy, and they walked outside and you went down the stairs further to help Sunset Shimmer out. Applejack and Rainbow Dash help you out a little while you have Sunset in your arms like holding an injured child, or a puppy.
Rainbow Dash and Applejack left you both alone for a second as you hold Sunset Shimmer in your arms. She has her arms around her neck to hold onto you.
“You… Is he…?” Sunset asked, but can’t get the words out.
“Yeah… He’s gone.” You said to her. Sunset brought her head to yours for a kiss for saving people’s lives.
You start to walk to the van that Applejack drove with her, or if it’s still there.
“Hey Applejack. Where’s your van?”
“Ah see it covered in debris over there.” She said pointing at her van.
“And Braeburn, you might wanna take your car to the shop.” Applejack said as she points to Braeburn’s car that’s in the tree around the corner of the stage.
“Damn it!” Braeburn said. That’s okay, I can get a ride home from Robert. He’s a really great friend.
“Alright Braeburn, we’ll see you back at the house.”
“Alright.” Braeburn said as you helped your friends get the debris off of AJ’s van, and you head for Braeburns house.
And as you’re now riding to Braeburn’s place, you just stare at the sunset as you drive by.
***
A week has passed and it’s now really swell to be back in Canterlot. Even though your house is now being rebuild, you and Sunset are now sitting in her room just watching “Transformers.”
Sunset Shimmer’s house didn’t get hit by that F5 very much. The movie ends as you and Sunset turned the TV off, and you both just cuddled.
“I can’t believe this whole Meta Tempesta thing is true.” You said to her.
“I know, I can’t believe that this is like what… The third time we’ve been hit by tornadoes?” You nod your head to her and you’re still really scared on how it was back there.
Now those tornadoes have come to haunt your nightmares like what happened to Jessica, the tornadoes in Los Angeles, and last month's tornado in Canterlot. They’re all now haunting you and it’s all burnt into your mind.
“And hey.” Sunset said as she brings her face to you. You sat up for a second and she makes eye contact with you. “Thanks for saving me though.” She whispered as she slowly moved in for a loving kiss.
You place your arms around her to bring her in deep, she moans in response as she wraps her arms around you as well.
She gets into a sitting position on your lap and she breaks the kiss to lift your shirt off of you and tossed it to the floor. Sunset Shimmer does the same as she takes her tank-top like shit off, revealing her bra.
She goes back to kissing you again, and she brings you in crashing on top of her. She rolls you on your back and she breaks the connection of the kiss again and she moves lower.
She quickly unbuttons your pants and zipper, as she pulls them down along with your underwear and tosses it to the floor. She takes off her skirt and tosses it as well.
Next, she takes off her bra and tosses it to you. It lands on your face. You take her bra off of your face to see that she’s now going for her panties and she tosses those away too.
You sat up and you both just looked at each other. Sunset brings you in for a hug and you crash on top of her. She puts her hand to the back of your head and brings you in for a loving kiss.
Her legs wrap around your waist without notice and she brings you in for a good rhythm. Making you moan in surprise as you felt your stiff member being squeezed a little in pleasure.
Sunset Shimmer breaks the kiss and she looks into your eyes, panting. You stare at her gorgeous blue-greenish eyes with a questioning look as your face beats red. Sunset Shimmer nods her head. She knows what you want.
You take hold of your shaft and you bring it to her wet folds. You push into her and she lets out a cry, same with you.
You push into her deep until you reached the end of her womb. You slowly start to pump in and out of her as you’re on top of her. Small huffs and puffs came out of you as you slowly get a steady rhythm. Sunset’s panting like crazy.
You speed up the process, and you hear a wet slapping sound. Sunset’s crying in pleasure as you both have in intimate moment together.
Your breathing coming in hot as you’re about to have an incoming climax.
“Uh… Uh… Uh… F-F-Fuck…” You said through clench teeth. Now moans are only things heard from you and Sunset’s cries of pleasure with that smile on her face. “I’m not… Gonna last…!” You said the best you can.
“M-Me neither!” Sunset moaned. Until you feel it run to the head, you quickly pulled out of her before she even had a chance to squeeze you in and you eject all over her as Sunset made a tiny puddle on the bed.
You collapsed by her side and you held her tight as you both are now panting for breath.
“I love you.” You whispered. Sunset grabs a hold of you, and the Talisman around your neck.
“I love you, too.” Sunset Shimmer responded. You held onto her for a bit longer before you started to feel slumber take over the both of you. Might as well wait till tomorrow to see how the day will be. Let’s hope it goes well.
