DOOM Equestria

Buckshot looked at Cadence as if he wanted to cut her open and eat her intestines. Cadence looked back knowing he wouldn't do anything.

"You feel good enough to walk?", she asks.

"I feel good enough to do more then that.", says Buckshot gritting his teeth.

"I had no knowledge of this.", she says defensively. "You should come. Your bother and other survivors are waiting on us."

"What about Dexter.", Buckshot franticly says.

"He's fine.", she responds. "Now let's go." Cadence takes Buckshot to her office where eleven survivors including Hayseed and Dexter are waiting." They begin walking.

"So you're not in this cult.", says Buckshot.

"No no no.", responds Cadence. "I freaked out and hid under my desk when the wave hit."

"Wow.", said Buckshot. "I never guessed that you of all people would do that." Cadence laughs.

"I'm the princess of love, not bravery.", she says. "Luna's a lot better then me at this, cause she has the nightmare moon form that she can take control of."

"I have a question for you.", says Buckshot.

"Fire away.", responds Cadence.

"Did you know that Batrugar was human?", he asks. Cadence starts looking less light hearted.

"Yes.", she responds. "How did you find out?"

"He was at outpost 08 like he was supposed to be, but he had let the demons through and opened the second gate to Hell.", answers Buckshot.

"So he was also a cult member.", she says. "He had brought so many advancements to pony kind."

"How?", asks Buckshot.

"He brought human culture here.", she responds. "We got things like fire arms from it."

"Huh?", says Buckshot.

"Why do you think guns are designed for fingers and not hooves?", she asks. "We can't find a way to make the trigger mechanism compatible with hooves."

"Wow, I thought they were just manufactured by the dragons.", says Buckshot.

"Nope, they're of human origin.", she responds.

"So is this place safe?", asks Buckshot, changing the subject.

"This place is on total lockdown.", Cadence says confidently. "Nothing shot of a titan will break through." They enter a through a sliding door and into Cadence's office. A large number of survivors including Hayseed and Dexter were there sitting in chairs eating rations. Buckshot takes a seat next to them. Cadence sits at her desk in front of all the survivors.

"May I have your attention please.", she says. All the survivors turn their heads toward Cadence. "I regret to inform that this refuge will not last forever.", she says with a frown. "We will eventually have to get off of Mars. I do have a plan though." some of the ponies looked at each other in fear of leaving the stronghold. "I have got in contact with the Phobos base and they haven't been attacked. So you will get to the hangar, and get to Phobos, and I'll go stop Aurora from opening the final gate. Any questions?" No hooves are raised. "Great. Now go get ready, we leave tomorrow" Everyone looks at the princess like she had lost her mind. Buckshot thought that she vary well had. Everyone gets up and goes to get ready, but Buckshot stays.

"I do have one more question.", he says.

"Mhm", says Cadence.

"I have dreams of being in a cave surrounded by flames. All my friends are dead around me and sometimes there's this suit of armor. A deep scary voice will speak."

"Their probably just dreams.", says Cadence.

"It doesn't stop there though.", responds Buckshot. "I have visions of the same place and of this symbol in demonic presence."

"Can you describe or draw this symbol?", asks Cadence. Buckshot looks around. He then gets up and walks to the bookshelf. He points to a book that had the exact symbol on it's spine. Cadence's eyes widen. "A-a-are you sure that's the symbol?", she asks. Buckshot nods. "H-have you had any rage episodes against the demons?", she asks. Buckshot nods again. "You're not bullshitting me are you?", she asks.

"NO!", shouts Buckshot. "What's happening with me?!?!"

"Ok stay calm.", Cadence whispers to herself. She walks to a mechanical container behind her desk and scans her eye. The cylinder container opens and she pulls out what looks like the hilt to a broken sword. "Take tis and you will know everything.", she says. He instinctively grabs it with his mouth.

His eyes glow red and he screams in pain. He sees someone else's memory flash before his eyes. He then finds himself back in the cave, But it's vary different. There are no flames and corpses of his lived ones. Instead, there were humanoid soldiers with spears tipped with blue plasma and white medieval looking armor. The green suit of armor was still there.

"I want to know!", he shouts. The soldiers pound the bottom of their spears on the ground and the symbol glows on the ground underneath him.

"In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood. Burned by the embers of Armageddon, his soul blistered by the fires of Hell and tainted beyond ascension, he chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred, he found no peace, and with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Plains seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. He wore the crown of the Night Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his sword named him... the Doom Slayer."

Buckshot came out of his vision breathing heavily. He looked around as if confused.

"I remember everything.", he says between breaths. "I remember Henry and the Phobos anomaly. I remember failing to save humanity. I remember my second chance, killing Devoth. I remember all of it."

Cadence could do nothing but listen. She just stood there in awe that she was in the presence of the bane of hell itself. Buckshot then looked at Cadence with complete confusion.

"If I killed Devoth, then how are there demons on Mars?", he asks. Cadence then snaps out of her trance and walks over to the bookshelf. She grabs the book with the mark of the Primeval (the Slayer's mark), and opens it.

"At the end of this book, there is something about the Dark Lord being reincarnated.", she says. "Like you."

"And who are our possibilities?", asks Buckshot.

"Maybe our cult leader.", answers Cadence.

"Not an unlikely guess.", responds Buckshot. "But I'm going to stop her. You take the survivors to Phobos."

"Then take some other marines with you.", says Cadence. "They'll show you the way to the argent tower." Buckshot nods. "And I have your old body, you're old shotgun, as well as the Praetor Suit and a copy of it designed for ponies.", she says.

"You happen to have maybe a BFG 9000?", asks Buckshot. Cadence smiles.

"I thought you'd never ask."
