Diary of the Dead
Geodes vs. Guns!
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTwilight and the others stood outside of the complex, ready to strike. For the leader, it was a chance at redemption. She’d been unable to save two of her best friends. In fact, she’d run like a coward. The very idea that she scurried away and foolishly protected herself while Sunset was beaten and taken off to an unknown fate haunted her. But this time, she promised herself that there would be no running. There would also be no mercy if Sunset and Fluttershy were dead. Twilight instructed the girls to use lethal force if necessary. After all, these men and women had taken their friends from them and possibly killed them. But, as she did not want to stoop to that level, she also told her friends to capture as many as possible. Rarity would make a prison out of impenetrable diamonds for them to be placed in.
So it was that the team readied itself for the moment of truth. They’d bid farewell to Applejack back in the forest. But, they did not leave her without defense. Rarity left the crowbar, and Twilight used her magic to summon a couple of pistols for her. As the purple girl stood at the door, she remembered the look on Applejack’s face. It was torn, as she wanted desperately to help save Sunset and Fluttershy. But at the same time, she also understood the extent of her leg injury. So, she’d wished them luck as tears fell. Twilight promised her that they would return with their friends, and it was a promise she wasn’t about to break…at least, not if she could help it.
“Alright, everyone,” she said, “ready…ready…now!”
With that, she grabbed her geode, kicked the door in, and the girls charged back into the base. They caught the guards completely by surprise, and Twilight couldn’t help but do an internal fist pump. Unfortunately, she couldn’t create the same happiness on the outside as they were met with immediate gunfire. Taking cover behind some crates, Twilight used her magic to acquire a gun of her own. It broke her soul to have to resort to such violence, but she realized that it needed to be done. She fired on the guards at set intervals, taking out one or two in the process. But it wasn’t enough. She needed help.
Thankfully, she had friends with geodes that were just as powerful. Rainbow Dash used her speed to confuse the guards, winding them up and having them fight each other. Pinkie Pie created small grenades out of her exploding abilities, tossing them hither and thither like flower petals on a wedding day. When they detonated, not only did they force shrapnel everywhere, but they also sent out a pink substance that blinded the enemy. Meanwhile, Rarity created the prison, but then started sending sharp diamond edged knives into the soldiers. It was a grand affair, with the girls making short work of many of their foe. However, there were simply too many of them, and they drove themselves towards the heroines.
“We need a plan!” Dash screamed as she shot towards Twilight and sat down, “they’re just too numerous!”
“Dashie’s right, darlings!” Rarity exclaimed, “there are only so many diamonds I can hurl!”
“We need to get to Fluttershy and Sunset!” Twilight said, “we can’t activate our true power until we’re all together!”
“But we don’t even know if they’re still alive!” Dash exclaimed.
“Then we just keep fighting until we find out!” Twilight shouted back.
So, the girls went about their violent affair, shooting and running and causing mass mayhem. They managed to kill some of the guards, while others were placed into Rarity’s floating inescapable cube. Twilight was terrified at the thought of having to be so lethal, but she was even more terrified at the idea that her friends could be gone. So, she continued to fight, grabbing soldiers and bashing them in the face before shooting those around them. Growling to herself, she made her way forward. Sunset and Fluttershy were at the front of her mind. She left a trail of blood along the floor, but she didn’t care. Bullets riddled her skin, but the pain didn’t faze her. Determination burned at the very core of her existence. Things would be made right, and she’d be the one to ensure that.
She was quickly joined by her friends, themselves bleeding profusely from the battle. They continued to be shot at, but they also continued to respond. Pinkie’s grenades were taking their toll, and Twilight was fast becoming an excellent marksman. Rainbow Dash, meanwhile, sped on ahead and dealt with the guards surrounding the cell itself. She ran a zigzag pattern around them. Just like previously, they became confused and started to pummel each other. When they’d been sufficiently knocked unconscious, Dash called for Rarity, and the fashionista used her platform magic to toss them into the prison cube.
Then, suddenly, Mr. Shy, Torture Rack, and Sharp Eye appeared on a railing overhead. The evil genius didn’t look too pleased with the developments, and he sent Torture downstairs. The crazed woman took up a nearby fully automatic weapon and ran after the intruders. She began firing haphazardly, sending bullets into her own soldiers! But she didn’t care. Mr. Shy had promised her a lot of things if she helped him with this project, and she was determined to make her dreams a reality. Soon, she’d have all the sexual toys she wanted. Because, in her mind, sex was only fun when she was putting someone through hell by doing it.
Soon, the world will be delightfully stupid! She thought as she continued to fire, and then, I’ll be able to fuck anyone I want!!
She continued her rampage, but the girls made their own stand. Rarity created a wall for them to hide behind, and they each used their abilities to their advantage. Rainbow Dash charged from the barrier, running circles around Torture faster than she could unload her clip. Meanwhile, Rarity and Twilight both had guns of their own and fired on the deranged psychopath. Pinkie’s grenades landed nearby, exploding and sending out huge amounts of blinding pink liquid. This entire combination was too much for Torture Rack, and, after a moment, she fell over. The stillness of the body confirmed everyone’s expectations. She’d been killed.
