Lunar Agents

Cold steel under my back, blood dripping under me. I could barely move with the restraints holding me down and I could barely see. The cuts in my hide started dripping blood slower as I gain full control. My cheek has a burn sensation and I could barely feel anything below. As I struggled and mare walked in to the room, and recognizing those hoofsteps, it was someone familiar. The heavied armor Pegasus walked in glaring at me with disgust.

"When they wanted to torture you, I didn't think it was like this." She said. "Some methods are gruesome, but taking a ponies marehood away from her is something else." Undoing the restraints, she sighed and turned around towards the door. "These bastards have a problem that need fixing, their money isn't worth it anymore." She stated as she walked off.

I stood up, shaking and having problems just walking small steps. I wobbled to the door and caught myself on the wall. I struggled to continue into the hallway, leaving a trail of blood mixed with other fluids. The deep pit of grey and cold followed me all the way down as I stagger across, one blood print at a time. The wound on my forehead started to dripped down in my eye, tinting my vision with crimson. Anger building up, I starter moving faster. Shrugging the pain off, I continued down, blind with rage.

I pushed to door open, revealing another blood mess. The only thing that made me loose control was the sight of the familiar green hide and golden mane. Grabbing the nearest sharp object, I looked at the two ponies, full of blood. I walked up to them and with a evil grin on my face. Stabbing through the throat of one, then slashing through the throat of the other, splashing blood everywhere. I tasted copper in my mouth as I was gleefully slaughtering them. I looked at the murdered, desecrated, body of Cloverul. Seeing this sight made me worry about the others but filled me with even more rage then before. I saw a bag in the corner, clearly thrown there as if unimportant. I took a look and saw paper, food, and other things. I took it and walked out of the room. Forgive me Clover but I don't have time to give you a proper passing to the other world.

Continuing my path of blood and chaos, I marched onward, giving zero fucks about stealth at this point. I'm going to get out of here and going to see Penni one last time. Even if she's dead. The steel now feels warm under my hoof of blood. I continued until I came upon a window, full of a crimson sky. I look out and saw that I was high up, so I would have to walk down all the way there, meaning plenty of floors to clear out of here. Seeing my grinning reflection in the window, I knew I lost it, but it doesn't matter now. Its too late for mercy now, all I have to give is hatred and vengeance.

I opened the next door to reveal a weapon compound. The guards aimed at me, but wavered, seeing my full of blood, glaring into their tainted souls. Without hesitation, I charged them with the blade in hoof and stabbed the throat of the first one. Ribbing it out, blood spilling out, turning to the other. He fired a shot but missed, looking scared. Before I knew it, there was a scalpel between his eyes. I pulled the bloody tool out, only to receive a broken mess. Discarding the now useless weapon, I turn towards the cache of weapons, only being met with a few to select. I spotted a holster and equipped it. Pulling out a six-shooter from it, I knew this was the appropriate sidearm for me. Checking the current amount of rounds and the amount of ammunition I found around the room, I was set. I exited the room into the hallway, seeing the my trail of blood leading to my current position. I spun the revolver and grinned, this was it, every one of those bastards are fucked. I go to the stairwell, looking at the sets of stairs I'll be walking down. Plenty of floors to clean of this parasite, Lets hope that fucker is somewhere. Continuing my genocide of this building, I opened the door to the next floor. I was met with patrolling guards. I looked down the sights, lined up my shot, and boom. Brains splattered onto the floor and the other guard turned my direction. Not quick enough as his twitching body laid there on the floor. I'm noticing a trend of two guards everywhere. As long as this keeps up, I'll be just fine for now.

Clearing them out left and right as if this was just a nest of rodents. No good rodents who needed to be wiped out from this place. I had no place in this world anymore, I'm just as corrupted as them, but I'm taking them to hell with me. I've came upon a door, looking different from others. I kicked it down, scanning the room. I saw a evil grinning pony, staring right at me. I shot him, but the bullet deflected off a shield. This guy isn't going down easily.

"I'm surprised you made it here, honestly am." he said. "You don't look very well though." He was a regular earth pony, but with that protective shield, it means a unicorn is nearby. "Oh but look at this, there he is." Pressing a button, lighting up the place. The unicorn showed up, horn dimly glowing as he is chained up. The one unicorn who did this to me. I stared him in the eyes, like daggers darting into his soul. He cowered before me, but this was unlike him from before. Last time he was screaming, being an alpha male... but now this is sad. My heart dropped at the sight, I did the only thing I really wanted done, revenge. I shot the horn of him, interrupting the spell. Then I aimed at the smirking stallion, the only one who could, Petty Ruby. I looked him dead in the eyes before releasing the last bullet into his brain. I spat on his corpse and put away the revolver, that was for Cloverul.

I unbound the stallion and walked off. The hallway was filled with blood and corpses, nothing else. I walked down the steps, to the final floor, the first. Opening the door, I was met with a clean room, nothing wrong at all. I started to stagger down, losing my adrenaline from the fight. I reached the front door, looked up, and saw something beautiful. The face of my lover, the one I tried so hard to protect. I was able to see her face once more before passing away. I smiled as I fell to the floor, drenched with blood, unable to tell which is my own.

"She's in horrible conditions Pennilope, there is nearly no chance of her recovering." A familiar tone stated. "Her wounds were cause from sharp jagged objects so not a regular knife, but also these burn marks shows that a heated object was pressed onto her skin, and do I have to explain what happened anywhere else?"

"But she made it that far, she has to be ok." A upset mare muttered. "She can't just leave us now."

"Pennilope she has been fucked over, both figuratively and literally." Who I knew as Tulip said. "She is a mess and even if she does pull through, what would happen then? She was covered in blood when we found her and that wasn't all hers, she is not sane, her mental state is not normal."

"I know her though, she wouldn't hurt anyone innocent." Penni said. I couldn't open my eye after hearing those words. How many of them did I slaughter and how many of them could've been innocent bystanders. No, they all were the same, the only ones that weren't armed were the ones I caught by surprise. I thought it has been long enough for this charades of fake sleeping.

I opened my eyes to the wooden ceiling of the building we are in. I looked over my mummified body to see Tulip and Penni. I wanted to sit up at the time but my whole body was sore. I heard a disappointed sigh from the filly.

"She's awake now." Sighed Tulip. "She shouldn't wake up like this, she's not stable at all."

"She looks fine though, she is alright, right?" Penni asked. I heard a big sigh break the argument between them.

"She doesn't even show signs of pain after all that has happened around her, she is just pushing them out of her head so she doesn't feel the pain." A huffy tone said. "She doesn't have any little remorse for it, this just shows how much she lost it."

"Bella!" Penni exclaimed. "Star wouldn't change like that, plus its normal to hide those feelings, not everyone likes talking about it, especially if you are trying to just tough it out." with a disappointed sigh.

"GAH! We used every last bit of medical supplies from that building!" Tulip screamed. "Bella come with me and help me look for some more." as she stomped towards the door with Bella following. I was left alone with Penni now, as those two went to find more supplies for me.

"Here Star, I want to show you something." Penni said, helping me up. I leaned on her as my legs grew weak. She led me down to the other end of the room where the curtains blocked a door. She moved them and opened the door, leading to a balcony. I looked up into the sky full of light, the gentle embrace of the moon giving us a peaceful setting once again. The sky suddenly lit up with colors, gentle yet a sight to see. I was in awe, even after all that happened to me. I know these lights too, these are what my mother named me after, Starleian Array, they shine every few years across Equestria all the way to the Luna Ocean. I always enjoyed looking at them back home, it brings me hope. I feel a hoof wipe at my cheek.

"Its a wonderful sight Star, its okay to cry." Penni said soothingly. I didn't want to at all, but her words tugged at my heart. I couldn't stop my tears anymore. I burst out, letting all my sorrows out. I cried into her coat, drenching it with my tears. I felt her comforting hooves around me, embracing me. I sniffled as I looked at her, this mare's eyes were shining, reflecting my poor form back at me. I looked like a mess, bandages around me as if I'm dressing up for a costume party, and most of them were wet from blood. She smiled at me, giving me a warm feeling again. I didn't want to let go, I knew this was how it was meant to be. "Oh thank you Star for bringing his bag." She said. "He had important things in there, also enough rations to keep us going for a bit."

"Sorry for stopping this touching moment, but we should discuss where we are going." Tulip said, interrupting us. "I got a map of this general area, and it looks like we are close enough to Fillydelphia."

"We got out of Manehatten, so if we go south we should hit Fillydelphia." Bella added. "If we leave soon, we should be able to reach it in about a day, of course I would be carrying Starlesa all the way."

"Sounds good, should we start leaving now?" Penni asked. "I'll get packed up right away." She said, bringing me inside with her. I was brought back to the couch that I was laying on before. She set me down and went to gather the few supplies we have. I looked around but the blurry mess of a room, unable to perceive much of it. I heard the rustling of bags being packed and zipped as everyone was getting ready. "I forgot, but Clover got these for you." Passing a case towards me.

I opened up the small case to another pair of glasses, perfect for the occasion. I put them on and was introduced into the clear world. I looked up to Bella offering her hand towards me. I grabbed it and was pulled up into her arms. I think I overdid it with the massacre at the Manehatten tower, walking around with my wounds and pushing myself, now I'm next to useless with anything that isn't lighter then a pen. Now we walk towards Phillydelphia.
