Bringing Anarchy
Friend?
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe town was thriving with activity. They were all ponies like myself which was freaky at first but then again, I've been through worst. I was wandering around what I believe was a market and observing what kind of society was going on here which seemed like the medieval times on Earth. I was starting to get a few glares by other ponies so I decided to ditch the market and walk toward a tree on the edge of town but as I walked closer to the tree, it turned out that the so-called tree was actually a house.
There was a sign hanging off the trunk of the tree that read 'Golden Oak Library' which spiked my interest 'Maybe I can learn about some history' I thought before opening the door with my new found ability. I walk inside causing a small bell to ring, inside I see around 5 rows of shelves carved into the wood which held lots of books, a staircase which leads upstairs as well as a staircase leading to a basement. I walk over to one of the shelves and start looking through the H category, after 3 seconds I already found a book which one the cover read 'History of Equestria', I assumed that was the name of the country so I walk to one of the tables that were placed in the room and sit down on the wood floor since there were no chairs and began to read.
After around a minute of reading, I hear some footsteps coming down the stairs but pay no mind as I continue to read. "Hello there" I hear a voice call out so I look to my left to see a light purple unicorn with dark blue and pink hair,
"Greetings," I say back as I continue to read.
She walks over to me and peeks over my shoulder "What brings you here?"
I pause for a second to think of something to say before answering "I just moved here and wanted to learn the history of this place but not having much luck" I can see her smile from the corner of my eye
She says "Well my name is Twilight Sparkle... Whats yours?" I pause my reading and quickly realized that I need a new name.
I quickly look at my backside to look at the logo etched into my fur before swallowing the lump in my throat and answering "Anarchy, Black Anarchy".
I look up from my book and look at her to see that she had a look of confusion on her face "Weird name" she says before walking off to one of the shelves. I find nothing useful to note so I close the book and head over to put it back where I found it. Twilight took notice of the weapons I had holstered so she walks up and asks "What is this thing?" She points towards the Tar-21 hanging off my neck
"None of your concern," I say before levitating it off my neck and eject the mag, putting it in one of the pockets in my body armour. I look at her with a smile before saying "I'd love to stick around and all that but I got to get going, bye" I start walking towards the door but as I open the door, I am tackled by a pink blur causing the wind to be knocked out of me
"Hey there! I don't know you which means you're new in town which also means I haven't thrown you a party, speaking of parties, I'm going to go get it ready" she randomly spurts out before she literally disappeared.
"Don't try to understand her" Twilight said, I get back up and look at my hooves to see a pink envelope so I levitated it up to my face and read it as I walked off. I ripped open the envelope and pulled out a card, I opened the card which read 'Come to the large gingerbread house around 7:00 PM. -Pinkie Pie' So that's the pink one's name. I put the card into the pocket of my hoodie and throw the envelope into a nearby trash can.
I was really getting the hang of the magic concept as well as walking but a thought kept entering my head 'I can't keep the secret for long'. I was suddenly pushed out of my head as I heard yelling, I look up to see a blue blur shooting right towards me so I step to the side before the blur hit the ground. The impact kicked up the dirt surface, leaving a crater in the ground.
A pony poked its head out of the crate, seeming a little dazed but quickly shook its head before seeing me and saying "Hey, why didn't you catch me?" I simply shrugged and started to trot away but was instantly tackled from behind, causing the both of us to roll a few feet before landing against a tree with her on me. "Don't walk away till you say sorry"
I was starting to lose my cool in this place so I say "I'm sorry" in a very sarcastic tone, I simply got a confused look.
She shook her head before she asked: "You're a dude? But you have the body of a mare".
I nod and ask "Is that bad?" She shrugs before I repeat her and shrug before saying "I've been through and told worse." I push her off and stand back up.
She gives me a glare before smiling and saying "You're alright, I'm Rainbow Dash, the fastest flier in Equestria" I give off a chuckle which seemed to offend her "What? Don't believe me? I can go around 800 M/PH".
I was tempted to laugh but held it in for me to answer "I've seen faster, In fact, the fastest I've seen was around 4,500 mph" Her face was priceless, to say the least.
She shakes herself out of shock and says "I never got your name yet"
I chuckled again and said "Black Anarchy but I prefer Anarchy more" I hold out my hoof which she lifts her own and gives a quick bump before we put both our hooves down. I remember the party and say "I was invited to some welcome party by some pink mare, you know her?" her face seemed to lighten up more to my despair.
She answered "Pinkie Pie throws the best parties! When is it?" I pull out the card that 'Pinkie Pie' had given me before handing it to Rainbow Dash to read, she threw it behind her before saying "Prepare for the night of your life"
I ask Rainbow Dash "It says 'Come to the large gingerbread house.' What drugs does she take?"
My question caused a stifled laugh from Rainbow Dash before saying "She doesn't take drugs, she's just like that and the giant gingerbread house is a real thing" My sanity was surely very low by now but I couldn't care less right now.
I look up at the sun to see it near the horizon meaning it was around 6:50ish. "We should get going. Which way is it?" I ask which was answered by a small follow gesture as she started hovering with the wings I did not see before. I followed her till a literal giant gingerbread house came into view. I walked up to the front door, waiting a few seconds before entering the most likely fake gingerbread house.
Every light was turned off, leaving the place pitch black. I was beginning to think the place was just a setup before I was blinded by a bright flash.
Twilights POV
The lights are quickly turned on and everypony shouts "SURPRISE!". We see Anarchy standing in the doorway wide-eyed as well as completely motionless beside Rainbow. We waited for a reaction but he didn't express any emotion which struck a little worry. I slowly trot up to Anarchy to see if he was alright, as I got closer I could hear some whispering but almost unintelligible. I look backward to see everypony with either worried or confused expression.
I look back to Anarchy to hear the whispering a little louder "The b-bombs, t-they're a-a-all gone. They w-wiped o-o-out e-e-e-everything." his breath was quite shakey.
His eyes rolled to the back of his head as he seemed to faint and fall to the floor, everypony emitted a gasp as I went into a full panic mode. "We need to get him to the hospital!" I say before hoisting him up with my magic and quickly run out the door followed by my friends.
I set Anarchy on my back as I make it to the hospital. I burst through the doors, saying "I need a nurse!"
Nurse Redheart came by quickly and set him on one of the stretchers in the lobby before allowing another nurse to take him to a room. Redheart turned to me before asking "What happened to her?"
I glare at Redheart as I said "It's male and he passed out after he arrived at a surprise party meant for him", Redheart nods before trotting away to the room with us in tow. We arrive at the room after a few minutes of walking to see the nurse that took him exit from the room.
"He suffered a PTSD panic attack, whatever you did must have triggered an attack. We manage to wake him up but I suggest waiting awhile unless you want to see him now?" she says so I give a simple nod before entering the room and closing the door behind her for a second before opening the door again and letting us in.
We see Anarchy sitting on the edge of the bed, rubbing his eye. He took notice of us and gave a simple wave before his eyes went wide again before asking "Where are they?"
The question left me confused so I asked, "Where is what?" He sighs before pointing toward the weird pocket that held one of the unknown objects.
I was suddenly startled by Pinkie when she popped out of nowhere with the strange objects before she asked "These things?" Anarchy nodded before grabbing the weird objects in the magic and securing the things to himself.
"I guess I have some questions to answer?" He asked which resulted in everypony in the room to nod their heads slowly, He sighed and said "I ain't telling anything till I know everypony in the room so let's start off with you"
He pointed to Applejack who simply said, "Ah'm Applejack".
He pointed to Rarity who said "I'm Rarity, The greatest dressmaker in Ponyville"
then he pointed to Fluttershy who said "I'm F-Fluttershy" surprisingly... Well, non-shy.
He waited a second before saying "I'm not really from this... world" everypony gasped but were quiet down by Anarchy letting out a shhh before he continued "I was living on a planet called earth and in the country of the United States of America, at least it was united till another country went to war with us. We underestimated them, they had weapons that could wipe out entire continents. They dropped 2000 nuclear warheads, spreading radiation and fire everywhere. I witnessed one of those bombs with my very eyes." it was quite sad to hear everything was taken from him because one war but was brought out of my thoughts as he continued.
"My other family members were left to burn outside of the shelter as the bombs tore cities to shreds and vaporized every creature in its path. The problem spread to other countries, the radiation went into the atmosphere and caused a nuclear winter for 2 years before it resided and was safe to go outside. I still can't get the pictures of the bright flashes, the mushroom clouds, the charred skeletons that littered the streets causing me to get PTSD I guess, never really knew till now".
We heard a sniffle coming from Pinkie so I look over to her to see that her hair was deflated and a darker tone to her fur, Pinkie Pie managed to say "This was my fault" I look back to Anarchy who had a sadden expression
He quickly said "Hey, hey, hey. It's not your fault, I would have told you if I knew it was a surprise" Pinkie smiled and lunged at Anarchy, giving him a hug.
Everypony emitted an awww before Pinkie said "You're a good friend" He froze up as he mouth the word 'friend?'
