This story takes place 63 years before the main story line and it follows a younger mare by the name of Scattered Hope, and a Stallion that goes by Ghost aka N1ghtWatch. Join them on a adventure through the waste land called Equestria.

Not everything is quite what it seems, unless it seems like the world turned into a barren wasteland full of terrifying monsters and the fact that everypony is crazy enough to kill for water and food. Then yes it’s exactly how it seems, it’s been one-hundred and thirty-seven years sense Equestrian and the Zebra mega spells went off and killed almost everything in their path. But you didn’t come here for a history lesson about some trivial things that wiped out your ancestors.

My names Scattered Hope, but you can call me Sixes. I got my nickname from my love of revolvers and my knack to carry everything I have in multiples of six. Ya it causes problems when I go out looting but I don’t do that much. You see I’m a Mercenary I belong to a group called The Forgotten Eden, and we go around taking jobs and doing what we’re paid to do. But before you ask yourself “does that include killing innocents and the more inappropriate things in the waste land?” For one we aren’t raiders as I’ve stated already we’re Mercs, and we at least have morals. Second, sense when in the wasteland is anypony innocent?

A big shout out to I Like Ponies, and PipDoodle for going over my really bad grammar. Plus my good friend N1ghtWatch for writing the story with me as a Collaboration and allowing me to use his Oc.

Disclaimers: I do not own Fallout or My Little Pony so this is just for fun and enjoyment.

And a big thanks to Kkat, Somber, and all the other writers out there that make and evolve the FoE universe.

(Authors Notes: I will be adding tags as needed. And no I am not planing on any sex scenes or anything of the like, although it could still happen but still unlikely. And lastly N1ghtWatch and I will be will be writing this as a dual perspective book.)

Chapter 1: Well isn’t this just great, another fun time on the road…

Waking up in the morning is not one of Scattered Hope’s favorite things in the world, but at least it meant somepony didn’t kill her in her sleep. She woke in an abandoned building with small amounts of light coming through the cracks in the ceiling and walls. She then proceeded to roll over and avoid what little rays of light there was, but to no avail. Cursing the vary name of Celestia and getting out of a makeshift bed she made the night prior and proceeded to look around. “Fucking hell what time is it…” spotting her bags at the end of the bed, she trotted over and went through them. Then pulling out an ancient looking pocket watch she opened it up to check the time. “And shit, it's 10 a.m. I’m behind by about an hour now.” Packing up her stuff Hope slipped into her light barding and put her saddle bags on. Then walking towards the door she stopped at a mirror near the door to examine herself.

Scattered Hope was a about average Unicorn with a semi up-kept mane and tail. And much to her dismay, she had pink eyes, well it did make her look sexy, but that doesn't help when you’re trying to intimidate somepony, although she did have a gun for that. Her mane and tail are a light purple with rich blue highlights. Her coat, although in rough shape, was a tan-ish color. She had on light barding that protected her lower neck, down to the middle of the front legs, and stretched back to her flank. Her saddle bags were the standard “holds shit” as she would say.
On her right fore-leg was the love of her life, and also her weapon of choice. The .38 special was in mint condition and had a sleek silver sheen to it, as well as what looked to be a few custom modifications to it. She also had a semi-automatic IFR-9 assault rifle that hung on her saddles. And just to be safe she had a combat knife sheathed on her left hind-leg.

Once satisfied that she was set to go she got started out the door. As she stepped out the door, Hope looked around to find her bearings, and to see if there was any hostiles nearby. The city street she was looking at was the basic ruins of a city hit by a Mega spell. The once beautiful city of Las Pegasus, well the parts that weren’t the slums anyways, were now charred and destroyed, with the buildings now leaning on each other for support like we used too. Most of the street was covered in rubble and skeletons of things long past, that just made the city more of an empty waste land like the rest of Equestria, and for that matter probably the world. To her left was the path she took coming into the city, which was a narrow path that you could only walk through single file. Hope’s worst fear when entering the city was that she could be ambushed and killed without her even knowing it till she’s dead, and at that point it didn’t matter. To her right was a smaller street that looked like it leads to the Las Pegasus Strip, or at least she hoped it did any way.

After she checked and was satisfied that no pony was around she slipped out into the streets and went on her way. “So where am I heading again…” Hope has been wondering the waste since she was young, but she never found many ponies other than the ones that shot at her for being alive. But when she found a Flyer that looked to be a job application for a mercenary group, she couldn’t pass it up. Although she did have her suspicions about the job, mostly that it could be a trap.
When hope finally got to the end of the street and turned the corner, she then felt a piercing pain run down her right leg. Hope rolled back around the corner for some cover.

“Oh fuck my life!” She started checking the wound until she noticed that the bullet didn’t penetrate her barding, and she would have been happy too… if the reason it didn’t wasn’t the fact that the bullet hit her 38.

“We’d be happy to do that and more to your dead corpse when we get done killing your ass.” Said what sounded like a bigger male earth pony, and on top of that definitely a Raider.

“Well doesn’t this just make my day…” Hope retorted now in a very bad mood, she felt like a good killing spree was in order. “OK I’ll give you to ten to run away or I’m going to kill every Luna damned one of you.” Her only reply was hearing them break out into laughter, so decided she took her chance. “Ten!”

She jumped out from behind the corner with her IFR-9 in her telekinetic grasp and targeted the closest one to her. Opening fire she was glad to see her first burst hit their mark and the Earth pony that was talking shit had several new holes for it to come out of. When she turned to target the second one she saw a unicorn mare standing next to a freshly killed corpse of another pony, drawing dual pistols from their holsters. Hope Focused on the pistols and turned the safeties on, just in time for the mare to pull the triggers, and also in time for her own weapon to shoot out another burst into the mares chest. The only thing that was missing was the thrill of actually being shot at, at least until the last one opened fire on hope hitting her in the flank.

Feeling the rounds tear through her barding and into her flesh wasn’t the best feeling in the world, but then again she was a masochist. Turning about to look at this new adversary she noticed a few things; one, this raider had a nice spiky helmet that other raiders would be jealous of, which made him in charge, two, she just got shot with hallow point rounds.

Then in an instant she pulled the trigger one last time, hitting him in the head, which sent his brains off in every direction. Hope sat down in the street she ended up in. “That could have gone better, but at least I’m alive and can enjoy taking these hollow point rounds out of my ass.” But before Hope could get started she remembered that she was out in the middle of the street, and decided it was best that she found some cover. After Hope made it to a bigger piece of a fallen building she got to work on her injuries; but not without some moaning here and there from the pleasure.

When Hope finally pulled out the last bullet, she started going through her saddle bags to find her Healing potions. Once she found them she took the first one she saw and drank it, then looking at the other five Hope felt really off. Unable to resist she took out the other five and placed them on the ground. “Fucking hell I hate this… sometimes I wish I had a Traveling companion just for times like these…” and with that she started going through the rest of her stuff and did the same to everything that came out not being a Multiple of six.

After Hope was done gutting out her bags and repacking them she got up to leave. “Well I guess the whole 'it’s a trap' thing was correct, but maybe not, it should be a couple of blocks away.” With that she started off again towards her destination, for better or for worse.
