Fallout Equestria: Isle of the lost.

The wasteland that used to be full of death and pain. Even if it's been ten years since Sunshine and Rainbows. The world is still full of danger. It's not as peaceful as many would like to have you think it is.

I have heard the words before: war, war never changes. I feel that war does change. It’s a matter of how crazy those that wish to fight this war are. I didn’t know it at the time. I was bound to get into the middle of a war that was different from Equestria’s war. Tiria warned me so long ago war will change. It’s a matter of how I handle it. My past though is mostly death and watching friends die including Tiria.

I did my best to be there for her when she was slowly dying. I saw her body slowly die over time. The pain in her eyes. The fact that she gave birth and then died. But I was trained to be a hero of the waste... but right now I am in the middle of a large battle between the NCR and some raiders. I am on the outskirts of Caledonia. I am trying my best to stay out of it. I had no friends helping me but I had a mission to find more traders for my home. The attack was near a dock that seemed to be gathering food but none of the NCR got on it.

I rushed through the battle trying to get away since I didn't want to get into the middle of it. I rushed onto the ship but... I never saw this ship before. Once I was on, I was hit from behind and knocked out. A few hours later I woke back up in a brig. I looked out of a porthole so I could see where it was in the middle of the water... wait, I have never been out this far. Why would they bring me here? I looked to finally see the captain of this ship. A Rat Creeper? Wait when did Rat Creeper's start showing up so much. Wait, no... not a rat creeper... a strange Lizard creature.

I tried to find if this lizard mutated from something else in this land. Most of the creature’s scales shined in the heavy sun. I heard gunshots and I quickly ducked. The lizard jumped at the sound of the gunshots looking down at me. His eyes glowing full of hatred and malice for a pony from the looks of it.

"You dare?" He hissed softly and walked around softly staring at me. He looked very scared. I just kept staring. I have never seen a creature like this. "You dare bring… the NCR and the raider on our asses. The NCR was chasing you for something so we tried to move away. Tell me who are you Pony?"

I stood on my hooves and stared at him through the bars. "I'm Star Shooter... I was on a mission for my home. to find more trading partners. I ran into that fight and rushed up to your ship to be safe. Then I got hit from behind... now I am stuck here far from home." The Salamander smirks while softly hissing a laugh.

"Don't… worry miss Star Shooter we will get you back home... in about two to three years maybe," I blinked. Two to three years? Did I feel my heartbreak? I was going to be away from home for that long? I was about to ask a question but out of nowhere, a storm hit us. Just a freak storm from out of nowhere. I looked outside and saw the clouds became green. Red lightning struck the ground while the rain… it was raining acid. I could see skulls of ponies that had been here before melt. I started to speak, worriedness present in my voice.

"Where are you taking me?!" The Salamander seemed to smile and was about to speak but there was a loud sound outside. Mist floated into the room. The mist turned into a nasty creature that took the form of nothing. The mist vanished after entering than leaving. The rain started coming in and the boat started to shake. Was this the end? Why did this happen so suddenly? I felt that I was being thrown around and I hit the bars with a thud but the door broke open and I landed on the Salamander as ponies rushed around. Something was attacking us. I could hear roars of anger. I rushed to see what was happening... a sea monster... an honest to Goddess sea monster. It was breathing out the clouds... it was causing the storm.

"What is going on?" I looked at the Salamander with panic in my eyes. He stood up and sighed.

Before he could say anything to me the storm got so much worse. The wind blew so hard outside the waves smashed into the boat causing us to rock back and forth. Thanks to all this, my stomach didn’t get along and a shade of green filled my face. He grabbed onto the wall with his claws. He turns his head forcing his claws deep into the hall to stop himself from moving.

"We are trying to find the lost island of Equestria that escaped the war. This island… was meant to be housing them... but no pony can ever get into this island. Because of the storm and the monster, anyone who has tried has been killed. The island is called the ‘Lost Isle of Equestria.’ The best and brightest fled the mainlands… from both sides… to come here. Think of it… a land never hurt by the war or the balefire bombs. But we learned that something else resides here, it tries keeping the outside world from coming in."

I was about to ask what madness he was talking about but then I saw it... an alicorn. An honest to Goddess alicorn. Her horn was enveloped by a black hue. The ship started to crack and break. I was flung from where I was standing and got hit in the head by a board then passed out.

I woke up… on the beach with the water slowly licking my back hooves. I stood up. Seeing the ship crashed on the rocks: the entire hall was broken open. I trotted to the ship but stopped... Seeing a unicorn with guards of different species of pony and creatures... I hid behind a tree.

She spoke in a soft voice. "I asked...you to bring no more… souls to us. We want to be left alone. No pony must know of the peace we have here... even if a rebellion has started." The Salamander bowed, nodding.

"I am sorry Miss Majesty... I understand the death of my crew is payment for bringing the new soul. But of course, I think she is dead... For she is one that would contact the rebellion." I learned the unicorn's name Majesty. She had a cutie mark of flowers. Then I noticed something else. A dragon, a small baby dragon, in armor by her side but this one was light blue and she was also a female. The unicorn left with her guards and the Salamander looked towards me when they finally left and I came over.

"Please miss, get to Cliff… run... contact the bartender. He will find a way to get you home." I nodded and he gave me a map. I had a Pip-Buck that I hid in a bag I wore. It was something that most ponies wanted. I downloaded the map and looked at him. It said on the Pip-buck that my main objective thingy… is to get home... I nodded at him. I started walking and he called out. "Stay on the road. The creatures here are just as bad as Majesty’s temper and stay away from the seer. She will try to get you pulled into her little wars."

I look back to the lizard. A path he walked down that is heading down is engulfed by strange magic and vanished into it. The magic glows brightly and then vanished I no longer see the lizard walking down the road. I took a deep breath, closing my eyes tightly, not sure what to think. I remember back in the wasteland if you allow it. It will cause strange things to show up in your vision

"Long way from home, pony?"

I blinked turning to finally see what it was. It was another Lizard creature. This one hunched back like Tiira's species and wearing heavy armor. He had a bunch of wares and goods on his back. He seemed to be a merchant.

"I see you don't know this land. This land is known as Dream Valley. There are two lands known as Dream valley. Now, this land is known as Devil’s Due. It’s a prison built so long ago by Alicorns to hold their enemies of a war long forgotten. I of course have been here for 500 years so allow me to lead you to Cliffside. A town that most new souls come to.” He stood on his claws and grabbed the straps on his bag heading down the road.

I nodded as I started to follow him. I didn't know what to expect from him but I followed him anyway through the very mist that seems to be trapping me here. I had to get home. I had to get back. This land is not my land. I saw a sign that said Cliffside is 60 miles from here… damn that is a long walk. I read the others. “Scale Hide City” that way, the “Castle Jewel” was another way. Along the path is a very small washed out map. All I could see is Cliffside and the others were scratched off or washed out.

"Better be careful if I were you… magic is banned on this island... only the guards and the Queen can use it. It's her way of keeping the peace. There has never been a war here but there have always been some that dislike her rules. Her biggest rule is that males can place their seed into who they wish. So stallions can force a boost in the surplus population so rape is legal here. So watch your flank."

I blinked my eyes going wide… rape... I could get raped here and nopony would care! What kind of island is this? I wanted to leave now but all I had was my supplies and my bottle caps. I noticed something... They were using real bits... They must have some money mint here. That works. How can one like me, raised in the wastes, last here? It's only been ten years since Equestria was healed. But that is not long enough for one like me to be free of the issues of waste.

I was losing it in my mind. What will I do? How will I live here? I felt so many questions at once going in my head. I had no idea how to live like this. So peaceful. I felt the issues going around in my head over and over. The ponies didn't need the outside world causing issues. I needed to get home. Oh, please, Goddess let me get home. I was praying as we walked the very road. I wasn't sure of what this Island was going to bring to me. I am hoping if I am forced to stay here longer than I wish to. Then I best move on. I know one thing for sure. I needed to be careful. For one wrong step. I could end up in jail or worse.
