The Adventures of Gummy

Gummy, the Guardian of Manehattan, stood atop the city’s tallest building. There was a brown fedora on his head along with a dark green half mask covering his face while the rest of his body was covered in a dark ninja suit and there was a belt with a variety of tools at his waist. For some reason he had chosen to wear a cape with too. He knew that it wouldn’t help him in a fight, but it served another purpose; to strike fear in the heart of his enemies.

His cape fluttered in the wind as his eyes silently roamed over the noisy city below him. The bright city lights were a stark contrast to dark sky above. It looked like the city would be just as busy as normal tonight. Though that didn’t matter to Gummy. He just ignored the activities of the innocent pony citizens. His only focus was on finding his enemy, the villains that lurked in the dark corners of the city.

As his eyes continued to search, a loud explosion echoed through the city and a cloud of black smoke started to rise up. It seemed his enemy was starting early tonight. He shook his head in annoyance. His enemies never seemed to learn. If you’re going to commit crimes, you shouldn’t make it so obvious.

Gummy blinked once before he reached for his belt and pulled out his grappling hook. It was time to get to work. He launched the hook in the direction of the explosion, catching the side of the building next to his. Then he calmly walked off the edge and swung across the skyline.

As he did, the sound of creaking floor boards issued behind him. “Wait, that’s not right. Oh, shoot. The author’s coming,” Pinkie whispered to herself as she hurriedly closed the laptop she was writing Gummy’s story on and stuffed it under a blanket. A second later there was a knock on the door. “Come in,” Pinkie said calmly.

The door swung open and the real author walked in. “Hey Pinkie have you seen my laptop?” Adam asked.

Pinkie hoped he didn’t see the sweat on her forehead as she calmly replied, “Hmmm, maybe you should try in the living room. I think I might have seen it there.”

Adam frowned as he pondered for a second. “Hmmm, well okay then. I’ll try there, thanks. I hope I can find it soon. I have a story to write.”

Pinkie smiled and said, “Yeah, good luck on your quest.”

Adam paused for a second before he said, “Thanks” and walked out the door.

As soon as the door was closed Pinkie said, “Whew, that was too close. At least that’ll keep him occupied for a few minutes.” Then she pulled out the laptop again. “Now where was I. Oh yeah, that’s right.”

Gummy’s face remained blank as he swung in the direction of the explosion. As he reached the top of his swing he pushed a release button on his grappling gun and the hook dislodged from the building and rewound itself. It took a few seconds for the rope to recoil itself, Gummy waited calmly as he started to fall downward.

Once it was ready again he shot at the nearest building and continued on his way. In short order he found himself on top of the building directly across from a bank that had smoke rising from it. It looked like he had arrived just in time because there were ponies screaming and running out of the front doors.

Sirens could be heard in the distance as firefighters and police rushed to the scene. They were too far away however. By the time they arrived it would already be over. It would be up to Gummy this time to make sure the villains responsible face justice.

Gummy shot his grappling hook one more time and walked off the edge of the building. He rapidly swung toward the bank and crashed through its smoking front doors. Without changing the expression on his face, he slid to a stop a few feet beyond.

The inside of the bank was noisy and chaotic. There was an alarm blaring loudly and the safe’s door was off its hinges. It looked like it had been blown off. That must have been the cause of the smoke Gummy realized. What a lazy and unintelligent way to rob a bank. It made him feel rather disappointed.

He shook his head and focused back on the problem at hand. That’s when he noticed the frightened ponies tied up next to the front desk. A single guard pony watched over them. The sight of their plight made Gummy move to action. In a flash he was behind the guard pony, who had failed to notice Gummy’s approach.

Gummy slammed his elbow on the side of the pony’s head. The pony let out a gasp as he collapsed to the ground, unconscious. Gummy didn’t waste time as he pulled a pair of cuffs from his belt and slapped them on the pony’s front hooves. That would keep him subdued for now.

Then he turned his attention to the hostage ponies. They were all tied up, but they didn’t look hurt. He was about to free them, when there was an evil laugh from behind him. Gummy spun around and came face to face with his greatest enemy, Dark Angel. Gummy didn’t even flinch as he stared down at the fluffy white bunny who only stood a foot tall.

The little bunny wore a dark cape and an evil smile as he laughed at Gummy. “Ha-ha-ha, I see you decided to show up Gradian. What a lame name. You really should have picked something better. Like Dark Avenger of the night. That would have been so much better, though, maybe not that one since it’s too close to mine,” Dark Angel laughed evilly.

Gummy just stared down at Dark Angel with a blank expression. The little bunny never seemed to change. Gummy sighed internally realizing that he would be left to clean up his mess yet again. What a waste of time.

Dark Angel tilted his head and said, “Really not even going to respond?” He shook his head for a few seconds before continuing. “You know, having you as a nemesis is kind of boring. I could do the evilest thing in the world and you wouldn’t even show a hint of anger. Oh well. I guess it can’t be helped.”

Gummy blinked once before he held up his claw and pointed at the broken safe and the hostages.

Dark Angel looked where Gummy was pointing before he smiled. “I suppose you’d label all of that as evil and you’re probably here to stop me, right? He-he, well, that’s no good. I’m taking this money and you’re not going to be able to stop me.”

Gummy slowly shook his head and took a step forward. He raised his claw, palm facing up and narrowed his eyes.

“Wow, you’re so serious. Very well then,” the little bunny said as he took up a fighting stance and smiled evilly. “Have it your way then. Come and stop me if you can.”

Gummy looked like he was frozen in place for a second. He didn’t even breathe or blink. Then, in a flash he closed the distance between him and the bunny and struck out with a clenched claw. Dark Angel saw the move coming and was able to block it at the last second. Then he countered by attacking with a powerful kick.

With the slightest movement, barely more than a breath of wind, Gummy moved out of the way of the kick, his cape fluttering gently. The little bunny was fast, but his moves were so obvious to Gummy. It was almost too easy. Gummy sighed internally. It was at times like these that he wished for an actual challenge. Even if he went easy on Dark Angel it wouldn’t be very much fun at all. Oh well, there was nothing he could really do about. At the very least though he would be able to put a stop to his evil ways.

While Dark Angel was still off balance, Gummy reached forward and grabbed the bunny’s leg and at the same time did a sweeping motion with his leg. Dark Angel fell to the ground with a stunned look on his face. Gummy still held his leg as he stood over the defeated bunny. There wasn’t even a single drop of sweat on his forehead.

For a few seconds Dark Angel just stared up at him angrily, and then he smiled. “Well, I see you’re just as good of a fighter as always and you still don’t like to pull your punches. Hmmm, what shall we do now? I suppose that you’re planning on arresting me now, but I can’t allow that. I’m going to leave now and you’re not going to be able to stop me.” The little bunny smiled evilly as he looked up at Gummy. At the last second, his eyes shifted to the left of Gummy’s face.

There was another knock at the door, wait, were the police here already Gummy wondered. “Oh, shoot I have to stop doing that,” Pinkie said as there was another knock at the door. “That lame Adam just won’t leave me alone.” Pinkie closed and hid the laptop again. “Come in.”

Adam opened the door and entered the room. “Hey, I’m sorry to bug you again but I checked the living room and I couldn’t find my laptop. Are you sure that’s where you last saw it?” Adam asked.

Pinkie tried to frown and hide her little smirk as she said, “Hmmm that’s weird. I could have sworn I saw it there. Maybe try the kitchen. I was using it to look up a recipe the other day so it could be in there.”

Adam looked at Pinkie suspiciously for a second before he smiled and said, “Well, okay thanks. I’ll try there next.” He turned around and started to close the door but stopped. “By the way, what are you even doing in here and what was that blue light I saw coming from under the door?”

Pinkie smiled and said, “Oh, you know I’m just thinking about stuff. I might try and plan a party later.”

Adam shook his head and smiled as he said, “You and your parties. Well anyway, thanks, and have fun.” Then he finally left and closed the door.

“Whew, that was so close. I don’t know how much longer I can keep this up. I have to finish this now. Okay, where was I?” Pinkie asked as she pulled the laptop out again and started typing. “Oh yeah that’s right.”

Gummy shook his head almost imperceptibly and sighed internally, knowing what was about to happen. One of Dark Angel’s henchponies was behind him and that villain was about to attack. He could see it in Dark Angel’s eyes. A second later he felt the slightest breath of wind on the back of his neck. Before the villain had a chance to attack him, Gummy stepped to the side and spun around to face him.

The villain looked so surprised by Gummy’s sudden movement. It took the villain a few seconds to recover. He struck out at Gummy with lightning speed trying to catch him off guard. However, Gummy was far too fast for the henchpony. Gummy moved to the side, though in dodging the oncoming attack he was forced to let go of Dark Angel.

As soon as he was free, Dark Angel hopped back onto his feet, smiling evilly the whole time. “He-he, you are quite the fighter, aren’t you? If I were on my own I wouldn’t stand a chance against you, but lucky for me I’m not on my own. If you want to defeat me you’ll have to beat them first.” The bunny pointed around them to the dozen henchponies that now surrounded them.

“Though, I doubt this will be a challenge for you, but it’ll give me enough time to get away from you,” Dark Angel said as he spun around and started to laugh as he walked away, a few henchponies with bags of money following along behind him.

“Now, if you’ll excuse me I have some business to attend to.” He turned around one last time and smiled. “Oh, and since I know you’ll try and bring back all this money, I’ve decided to take out some extra insurance this time. I kidnapped your friend Pinkie Pie and I’m holding her hostage. If you want her back you better leave me alone.”

For the first time Gummy’s eyes narrowed ever so slightly, but if you weren’t looking closely you wouldn’t have noticed the change at all. He knew that Dark Angel was evil, but to take someone as innocent as Pinkie Pie hostage was unforgivable. Gummy was actually a little angry now. Dark Angel had made a big mistake.

As Dark Angel laughed his way out of the building, the henchponies smiled menacingly as they approached Gummy. They clearly thought that they would win, since they outnumbered him. A second later the first one rushed at him and the others followed close behind.

What a dumb way to attack. If they all attacked at once like that it would make it much harder for them to fight because they could end up hitting each other. It would give him a huge advantage though, which is exactly what he was looking for. Gummy tensed his body like a spring in preparation for his next move.

The first henchpony swung his hoof forward and Gummy unleashed the tension in his body and jumped above the pony’s punch and landed right on the ponies back. The pony stumbled forward and wound up in the middle of all of the other ponies. They were all too slow to react and they all ended up attacking him instead of Gummy.

Gummy jumped off the pony as he fell to the ground, knocked out, then Gummy landed on another pony’s head. This time though, he used his momentum to pull the pony forward and ram him into another pony. The two ponies both collapsed to the ground, with Gummy still on top of them.

As he stood there silently, three more ponies came at him all at once. Gummy swiftly and deftly stretched his body to avoid all three of their attacks. They all wound up striking each other and they quickly collapse to the floor.

Now there were only six ponies left to deal with. Gummy saw them trying to come at him from every angle. That made things so much easier. He’d be able to take them out all at once. It’s a good thing villains like these never seemed to learn from their mistakes, Gummy thought.

Gummy ducked and planted both of his claws firmly on the floor before he lifted his back legs and tail so they were horizontal to the ground. Then he spun himself around like a top just as the ponies closed the distance around him. His tail struck them all with an immense amount of force and made them all fly backwards, knocking them all out.

Once that was done Gummy calmly stood up. There wasn’t even a bead of sweat on his forehead as he looked around to see all of the knocked out henchponies. Sadly, though it appeared that Dark Angel had indeed gotten away. That just wouldn’t do. He needed to find him fast so he could save Pinkie from his evil clutches. Luckily, he had a good idea where the little bunny would be hiding out.

Gummy took a step forward, but froze in place as he heard the sound of sirens right outside the bank’s front doors. It seemed the police had finally arrived. They were always far too slow and they always got in his way. He sighed internally and shook his head slightly. Well, at least they could clean up all these villains for him, but he would need to get out of the building fast or they might arrest him too. Vigilante justice wasn’t liked by the police after all.

Without wasting any time Gummy swiftly ran out of the back, probably using the same door that Dark Angel had used to escape. He was just in time too. As he left, the police rushed into the bank shouting at everyone to freeze.

Now outside, Gummy looked around at the back alley he stood in. He wasn’t too far away from the place he was sure Dark Angel would be using as a hide out. There was an old abandoned warehouse only two blocks away and it would be perfect for a villain’s lair and the perfect setting for a final battle. Gummy pulled out his grappling hook and quickly used it to get to the rooftops again. Then in very short order his made his way to the building in question.

The building looked like it was falling apart and it needed some serious repair. Though, strangely there were lights coming from the inside of it. He was right after all it seemed. They sure weren’t very good at hiding themselves. It made him wonder how villains always got away if they continually did foolish things like this.

Well, whatever the case it made his job easier. Gummy made his way to the top of the roof. Then from there he quietly crawled into a vent and made his way deep into the building. A minute later he saw a light up ahead, so he made his way to it. It was a little grate that looked down to the floor. Gummy looked through it and saw a scene that made his anger grow.

Pinkie Pie was tied to a table and Dark Angel stood just a few feet away from her. “You’re such a monster. Can’t you just let me go?” Pinkie asked.

“Ha-ha-ha, you think I’m a fool? I need you here to protect me against the Guardian. He’s sure to track me down again and I need you as insurance. With you here he wouldn’t dare attack me. If he did something really bad could happen to you,” Dark Angel said with another round of evil laughter.

Pinkie looked frightened for a second before she giggled and said, “Oh, you’re such a silly little bunny. Why’d I even make you the villain anyway? Gummy, I mean the Guardian’s not going to stop just because you have me. He’ll stop you, and save me.”

Pinkie jumped in her seat as there was yet another knock on the door. She shook her head before she mumbled under her breath, “Can’t he just leave me alone?” Then she hid the laptop. “Come in.”

Adam walked in with a confused look on his face as he asked, “Uh, who were you talking to Pinkie?”

Pinkie bit her lip as she realized she had been speaking her lines out loud. She quickly shook her head and said, “Ummm, no one. I must have just been thinking out loud. Silly me. So, what do you want this time?”

Adam frowned slightly as he said, “Um, okay. I’m still trying to find my laptop. I’ve looked everywhere in the house and I can’t seem to find it anywhere.”

Pinkie nervously looked away from Adam, her eyes briefly fluttering to the laptop’s hiding place before she said, “Awww, what a shame. I wish I could help you, but I can’t. Now can you leave? I’m kind of in the middle of something and I’m running out of time. There’s only a few days left before Nightmare Night and I need to finish my party planning.” Pinkie started to push Adam out the door.

Adam placed his hand on the door trying to keep it open as he asked, “You’re not hiding my laptop on me, are you?”

Pinkie shook her head, offended as she said, “What, no? Why would you think that? Besides what would I do with it anyway?”

Adam smiled as he said, “Because you like to torment me and write your own fanfics. You’re working on one right now, aren’t you?”

Pinkie narrowed her eyes and said, “What? I’m really offended that you would think that of me. Humph, I would never do anything like that. Now why don’t you leave and check the garage? I bet it’s in there.” Then she slammed the door in Adam’s face.

Adam stood on the other side of the door. “But we don’t even have a garage,” he said in confusion. Pinkie was definitely up to something and he was going to find out what it was.

Pinkie sighed as she got the laptop out again. “Hopefully that’ll be the last interruption and I can actually finish this story,” she said before she started to type away.

Dark Angel narrowed his eyes and said, “Your precious Guardian won’t be able to save you this time. I’m prepared for him. When he gets here, he’ll wish he had never become a hero.”

Pinkie smiled as she asked, “So what’s your plan this time?”

“Ha-ha-ha, you think I’m just going to tell you what my plan is? What a joke,” Dark Angel said as he turned around.

Pinkie giggled as she said, “Oh, its’ okay Angel. I know you don’t really have a plan. You’re just trying to act tough.”

Dark Angel spun around angrily and said, “Of course I have a plan and my name is Dark Angel. Don’t you ever forget it.”

Pinkie kept on giggling for a minute before she said, “Oh, silly me, I must have confused you for another little bunny I know. Anyway, it doesn’t matter if you have a plan now or not, because the Guardian’s already here and he’s about to attack and defeat you again.”

“What, he’s here already?” Dark Angel said as spun around in fear. A few seconds later though, he laughed when he didn’t see Gummy anywhere. “Oh, you had me going there. I’m sure he’s on his way, but there’s no way he’s here now.”

Pinkie shrugged her shoulders, still smiling as she said, “Oh he’s here alright. He’s just listening to us and waiting for an opening. My guess is he’ll attack in about a minute when you’re distracted.”

Dark Angel continued to laugh as he said, “Oh you’re so hilarious. Well, whatever. If he comes I’ll be ready for him.” Then he turned away from Pinkie and walked over to his henchponies and started to whisper to them.

Gummy stared down at Pinkie as she giggled to herself. He wasn’t surprised that she already knew that he was here. Pinkie was always a few steps ahead of everyone else. She could probably even get out of this situation herself if she really wanted to, but Gummy doubted she would. He knew that she was having too much fun by the looks of it.

Then Gummy noticed that Dark Angel was distracted as he argued with one of his henchponies. What perfect timing he thought as he quietly pulled the vent grate up. Then he silently slipped through the hole and jumped down to the floor, landing right next to Pinkie’s table.

Pinkie smiled up at him as soon as she saw him and giggled. “Oh, it’s good to see you again Gummy.”

Gummy sighed internally. Why did she have to use his real name? It was really annoying and it could lead him into trouble if she wasn’t careful. There was a reason he chose to be called the Guardian and not Gummy.

“Oh, sorry for that Gummy, I mean Guardian. I just got a little excited because we’re almost done with the story now,” Pinkie said happily as she somehow untied herself.

Gummy growled internally in annoyance. She really could have done that the whole time if she really wanted to. Why was he even here if she was just going to do that anyway? Well whatever, now that she was free the two of them could leave before anyone noticed that she was gone.

Pinkie giggled as she said, “Oh silly, you’re here because you’re my best friend. You just couldn’t leave me here with them, could you?” Then she slipped off the table and started to follow him out of the building.

Well, she was right about that, but Gummy wished she would be quieter. If she wasn’t careful, Dark Angel would notice them.

Pinkie frowned before she whispered, “Whoops, sorry. I didn’t realize that I was being so loud. Do you think they heard me?”

“No, we didn’t hear you at all,” Dark Angel said from a few feet behind her.

“Oh shoot, I’m sorry Gum- Guardian,” Pinkie said, but she really didn’t look sorry.

“Well now that you’ve arrived we can get started,” Dark Angel said and pointed around them indicating the hundreds of henchponies that had come out of nowhere.

“Wow, where’d they come from? I thought I only gave him a couple of dozen henchponies. This story may not end as quickly as I thought,” Pinkie said with concern. Then she looked over at Gummy who had a very strange look on his face. “Um, are you okay Guardian?”

Dark Angel laughed as he said, “He’s probably frightened by all my henchponies. I bet he just realized how futile it all is and he’s about to give up.” There was a strong look of confidence in his eyes.

Gummy closed his eyes for a few seconds. When he opened them again there was now a real look of anger on his face as his mouth twitched a little before he opened it and spoke for the first time. “You know, normally I wouldn’t have a problem with a fight, but I’m just not feeling it right now.”

Everypoines’ mouths fell open in shock. It took more than just a few seconds for someone to make a noise. Pinkie shook her head and smiled. “Oh, Gummy I didn’t know you could talk out loud. That’s a neat little trick.”

Only a few seconds slower than Pinkie, Dark Angel asked, “Wait, you can actually talk? I thought you couldn’t, but this whole time you could? Why do it now through?”

Gummy sighed and shook his head. “I’ve had enough of you and your failings Dark Angel. I’m not going easy on you anymore. It’s time you were brought to justice,” he said, his voice cold and dark.

“Wait, what do you mean?” Dark Angel asked in confusion.

Gummy sighed before he closed his eyes. “It’s over for all of you,” he said. Then, the very second he opened his eyes again, his body moved faster than the eye could see and maybe even fast than physics would allow, because just an instant later every single henchpony was knocked out and tied up.

It took Dark Angel a few seconds to realize what had just happened. “What, but how? When did you …?” he said as he tried taking a step forward only to realize that he too was tied up. “Huh?”

“It’s over,” Gummy said, before he knocked Dark Angel out a second later.

Pinkie smiled at Gummy and said, “Oh I knew you would be able to win in the end. Thanks Gummy.” Then she gave Gummy a big hug. Before the two of them made their way out of the building to call the police. A few minutes later Dark Angel and his henchponies were arrested and all of the bank’s money was returned.

Gummy stood atop the building next to the warehouse and watched as his enemy was finally being taken away for the last time. It was a good sight, but he knew it would be a short-lived victory. There would always be another villain waiting in the wings to do more harm. Evil never paused or rested and that meant that he too would never be able to rest. Only he could be the one true Guardian of the city. It needed him and he could never let it down.

There was a loud cough behind Pinkie and she spun around in surprise. “So, this is what you were up to this whole time,” Adam said as he finished reading Pinkie’s story.

Pinkie bit her lip as she was caught red handed. She looked down at the floor and guiltily said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to steal your laptop. I just got so excited by the idea of a Nightmare Night story that I had to do it. Please don’t be mad at me.”

Adam smiled as he laughed. “Why would I be mad at you? This story is actually really funny. You did a good job with it,” Adam said.

Pinkie smiled in surprise as she said, “What, really? You like it? Does that mean I can write more stories in the future and post them on your FimFiction account?”

“Woah, don’t get ahead of yourself. I know you can write, but I can’t just have you posting whatever you want on my account. Besides, I’m not even sure if the fandom will be continuing after Season 9 ends. You know what’s happening after that,” Adam said with sadness in his voice.

Pinkie looked sadly down at the floor and said, “Oh. You’re right. I almost forgot about that. I hope Gen Five is good too, and that Hasbro doesn’t muck with the good thing they have.”

Adam nodded before he said, “Yeah me too, but just remember that we’ll always have you. I don’t think anything will ever replace the magic of friendship.”

Pinkie smiled as she said, “Awww, that’s so sweet, thank you.”

Adam’s cheeks reddened a little before he said, “Don’t mention it.” Then his face hardened. “Don’t you dare tell anyone I have a soft spot though, got it?”

Pinkie frowned as she said, “Oh, ummm, you mean I wasn’t supposed to add this conversation to my story?”

Adam’s eyes widened as he realized that Pinkie had been typing away on the keyboard the whole time. “Wait, did you really type all that up?”

Pinkie smiled and said, “He-he, of course silly. It’s all a part of the story and I’m about to submit it.”

“What? NO DON’T,” Adam shouted, but it was already too late. Pinkie had just clicked the submit button and the story was quickly uploaded to the internet, where it would remain forever.
