Fallout Equestria: The Forsaken ones

Chapter 2: Dark Intents

   The Crystal Mountains was a section within the Frozen North. It was a cold range of mountains that served as an earth-made "fence" that guarded the Crystal Empire. There, within these mountains, was a tall structure which seemed to be stretching towards the heavens. The dark atmosphere inside seemed to match the residents' personalities to a tee. Scotch Tape looked around, an anxious feeling within her. What exactly did they want? And what were they going to do with her? From hearing their conversations, she learned that the trio of freaks who stole her actually had names. The griffon: Gavino, the diamond dog: Fenrir, the yak: Ivor. As for their leader, she too had a name of her own; that name being Jayne. She seemed to have a beige pelt, brown hair, and what appeared to be a bleeding eye for a cutie mark. "You have done well in retrieving four of the artifacts," she told them, "But there is still two more to obtain." Scotch Tape remembered; there were six artifacts that served as keys for the Chest of Harmony, each one upholding a specific value. These objects were a rainbow thread spool, a pre-war Wonderbolts pin, a rubber chicken, a flower, a bit, and probably the most powerful; Scorpan's medallion. They already have the bit, the pin, the chicken, and the spool in their possession.

   "It won't be long now before we accomplish our goal," said Jayne, a sly smirk crossing her face, "Once I obtain the gift of invincibility, not even the Watcher will stand a chance." Interesting, Scotch Tape thought to herself, This pony is an alicorn, yet she's still mortal. "We have already learned of the final two's positions," Ivor told Jayne, "It's only a matter of time before they're in our grasp." "Okay, so..." Scotch spoke up. Jayne took notice almost immediately. "Yes?" "What exactly do you need ME for?" Scotch asked, "If you just want these artifacts, then what good am I?" "I could use a fourth disciple," Jayne answered, "Three warriors are enough, but four? Combined with immortality, I would be TRULY powerful!" Fenrir stifled a chuckle. "Isn't that great?" he said, "You get to live." "You," Scotch Tape scoffed, "teach me YOUR skills? After you kidnapped me? I don't think Either Blackjack or Littlepip would approve..." "What's that?" Jayne said, "The Light Bringer? The Maiden of the Stars?" "Uh-huh," Scotch answered, "Best hope they don't get here, or you'll be sorry~." "You'd best keep your mouth shut about that Hellmare if you know what's good for you," Gavino barked. Jayne kept silent. I've heard of this pony before, she thought, She was the one who thwarted Red Eye's plan to become the newest God of the Wasteland.

   As Jayne sent both Ivor and Gavino to find the two artifacts, Scotch Tape took the opportunity to try and escape. At first, it seems to go well, but sure enough, Jayne spotted her and zapped a tranquilizing spell on Scotch Tape, causing her to fall asleep. She then walked towards the sleeping filly, a devious look in her eyes. "Just TRY to leave us," she smirked, "I dare you."
