Fallout Equestria: The Outcast

I slept and I slept good, as if I was back in Ten Pony Tower on my bed and I slept long, at least so I thought. I was woken up in the middle of the night, still not a single bit of daylight by a horrific scream. I shot up and saw that there was a whole in the tree, I woke up Bone and shouted:

“Bone wake the fuck up we have a problem!”,

“Mhm… what… what’s going on?”, he said as he rubbed his eyes,

“The unicorn! I just heard her scream, she´s gone!”,, I exclaimed, within a second he jumped up and drew his pistols, I drew my Winchester. We walked out of the tree and I immediately saw tracks coming from the street and leading back to it.

“Tracks! There!”, I shouted and we followed them,

“They went this way!”, Bone said pointing in the direction of mud that has fallen of a wheel as it seemed. We followed the tracks for half an hour until we came to what looked like an old dinner with multiple stories. Bone didn’t wait he just went in. As we walked into the dinner, we were greeted by ten rifles pointed directly at us.

“Fuck off you aren’t welcome here!”, a buck with chains as cutie mark groaned but as he turned around to look at us his eyes widened, “Look who we have here guys, our old friend Bone.”, he said as he walked towards us, “Thought you died ages ago after what we did to your mark!”, he added as he flicked up Bone´s trench coat to reveal the nasty scar I was too afraid to ask about. ” And you even brought us another slave how nice of you!”, he grinned at me,

“Where is the unicorn?”, Bone hissed at him,

“The one we found in the tree? My boys are having a little fun with her upstairs.”, he said and as if a button was pressed, I heard her scream of pain.

And I snapped.

I don’t exactly remember what happened, I saw red, pointed my gun at him and filled his head with three bullets, the other seven were killed by Bone.

I ran upstairs and kicked in the first door, nothing,

I kicked in the second door, weapons and ammunition have to remember to loot later, third times the charm.

I kicked in the door and was greeted by the sight of a black earthpony having his fun with the poor unicorn who was bound. I just jumped at him and tackled him to the ground, holding him there with my hooves while Bone cut the mare free with his knife he hid somewhere in his coat.

“Please, please don’t hurt me!”, the buck begged as he tried to get free. I pulled out my Winchester and put another bullet into its chamber. The buck’s eyes widened even more,

“No please, please no!”, he begged. I put the barrel to his head and said:

“Give me one good reason not to end you!”, he just begged:

“Please I can give you caps if that’s what you’re after!”,

“Not in the slightest”, I answered pressing the gun even harder to his head, he just begged even more:

“It wouldn’t be fair, it’s against the law!”,

“I know no law other than my own, I am not fair, I am biased, I am my own law, I am an Outlaw.”, I said, “And you have just broken said law”. Then I put a bullet through his head, it didn’t take me much and he deserved it. The unicorn sat in the corner crying, Bone stood next to her and I walked over to her and hugged her, she took the hug and just cried into my shoulders.

We two walked back downstairs while Bone looted the second room,

“Thank you”, she suddenly mumbled to me, “Thank you for saving me.”,

“I’m happy to do so but we never got to know each other, my name is Fire Strife.”, I said,

“I’m Starry Diamond”, she said and only now I realized that her cutie mark was a ruby with sparks on it,

“Nice to meet you Diamond”, I answered back trying to lighten her mood.

“What now?”, she asked,

“Well”, I said, “first you need to rest, this time I will stand guard while you sleep and after that you could join old Boney and me on our journey to the Everfree forest.”,

“Isn’t the Everfree forest one of the most dangerous places in the wasteland?”, she asked,

“Yes it is”, I replied, “but the only thing the wasteland likes more than being toxic is forcing me to go exactly there.”, she actually snickered at that. As Bone came back down Diamond was already asleep and I told him:

“We are gonna rest here for a while until Diamond has had a bit of sleep. I am standing guard you can sleep if you want and tomorrow, we will continue our journey.”,

“With her?”, Bone asked, I nodded, “Ah whatever I´m getting some shut eye.”, he growled. As I sat there I activated my pip bucks radio and switched to Dj-Pony´s broadcast, right at the time where he said:

“This was Sweetie Belle remembering us that the sun will rise again someday and now to an interesting bit of news, While our friendly stable dweller fights for the good of the wasteland it seems like we have another hero: I just got in reports that a Pegasus, a non Dashite Pegasus, was taking care of the slavers in the old Dinner near Junktion R-7 and as it seems this Outlaw as he was called had something to say to the buck who just raped an innocent mare, let’s play the recording”, I was stunned as my voice sounded from my pip buck,

“I know no law other than my own, I am not fair, I am biased, I am my own law, I am an Outlaw. And you have just broken said law. And then he finished him off with a quick shot to the head. Looks like the Outlaw didn’t take too lightly to rape, so watch out you Slaver bastards ´cause if you rape the next time the Outlaw will come and kill you even before you can finish!”.

I chuckled at that, the Outlaw doesn’t sound that bad and being known as the one who punishes rapists is a reputation I could live with and do something for it.
