The Anti-Brony Chronicles

I kicked the doors to the church open, guns loaded and grenades hot. The Anti's didn't see it coming, so they were, needless to say, unprepared. I pecked them off one by one, blood splattering the walls and heads being blown to pieces. I tossed a few grenades in, blowing out more pieces of Anti's, and even knocking over their scaffolding.

"TIMMMMMBEERRRRRRRR!" I shouted and laughed, guns still blazing. I saw more and more of them flood out into the church, and each one was slaughtered in a hail of gunfire. A few managed to fire back, but missed and were killed just like the rest of them. One by one they fell, blood spraying the walls and gunshots ringing out into the night sky. Finally, when all was said and done, I dropped the empty guns and strapped C4 to the walls and support beams of the church. I ran out and hit the detonator switch. The resulting explosion sent shrapnel, rock and wood flying from the old building and it collapsed in a heap. I just grinned and turned to walk away.

The pistol's barrel was right in front of my nose. The man holding the gun grinned at me; his black hoodie flowing in the breeze.

"Well well well! Quite a mess you've made here." He said, finger tickling the trigger.

"You were gonna kill the princesses just for power? You call yourself a brony?!"

"And what are you, boy?! An anti? Proud and strong? Look at yourself. You couldn't even kill the Mane 6! And now you've teamed up with them!"

"That's doesn't matter anymore!"

"Oh ho? And what, praytell, does? We're in a world where power will crush you like a nut! You have to get to the top, no matter who or what you need to kill in order to do so."

"What you speak of is murder!"

"And what do you call what you just did? You killed off your own kind!"

"You tried to kill me."

"You were nothing more than another rung in the ladder of life, boy. You needed to die, so that I can take your place. I was going to do away with you anyway after you finished off Princess Celestia and Luna!"

"I'm protecting myself and the ones I care about!"

"So riddle me this then! What are you? Brony or Anti?"

"What will it matter? You've got the gun. You're gonna kill me anyways."

"Maybe so, but I want to know what you truly are, boy!"

"I can't answer you, because I don't know anymore."

"That's a shame then..."

And he shot me. Shot me right in the stomach. I staggered back, holding my gut. Suddenly, as I fell, the ponies ran in and shot him down in a rain of bullets. Twilight ran to my side and propped my head up, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Austin! Stay with us! You're going to be okay!"

I coughed up blood. My vision blurred and my wound bled like a faucet.

"Tw-Twilight."

"You're going to be fine! Just hold on!"

"Twilight....I need to tell you something."

The ponies all looked at me as I lay there dying, tears filling their eyes. I coughed again.

"It doesn't matter what happens to me. You need to save the princess. I think she's still in danger."

"No! We have to stay here! A medic is on the way! Just stay with us!"

"Twilight...You've been a great help to me...I would've died if it weren't for you. And even still...now that I am dying....I want to thank you. We've had our differences in the past, but I think we can look over them...."

"Just stay with us, Austin!!"

"I can't Twi...Not for long..."

"No! You'll be okay!! You're going to be fine!"

"Don't kid yourself Twi. Look at me...I'm fatally wounded and dying. I'm not going to make it."

"Don't say that!" She cried.

"Facts are facts Twi. You of anypony should know that by now."

Twilight's eyes watered like two big purple fountains.

"I'm sorry about everything I've done. I'm glad we could be friends in the end."

"No this isn't the end!!"

"It is Twilight. Don't make it harder for yourself than it is."

My vision slowly started to fade into blackness as I felt life slip away from my grasp.

"Twilight...save the princess....save yourself...."

And then everything went black.
