Congrats gamer you've completed the tutorial, the game has officially started "Well now time to unlock my magic" . I sit on the bed crisscrossed for thirty minutes concentrating, and i feel a spark of energy inside my body, then it bursts and spreads to my whole body and feels like the blood from my own body pumping throughout my body then two notifications pop up. You now have full access to your magic From repeating an action you've created a skill Meditation. [LVL:1] XP:340 Left This skill helps regen your mana faster Mana regen: 2 per min "Yes awesome well let's get dressed and visit Iil pip cause i don't have any handyman work to do today". I get dressed making sure i cover the cutie marks and head out, the corridors seem to be bustling as i walking i get waves , i wave back then i make it to pip-buck repair room and enter and see the mare in question i come to see just staring at the grey wall. 'Celestia and Luna if she didn't like mares i would've asked her out years ago'. I say in my head. "Hey pip how's my favorite pip-buck technician". "Hey chaos how's my favorite handyman and I'm not doing good it's another boring day here and this rooms so bland". "I could ask the morale staff to paint down here they own me a few favors". "Thanks but i don't think your mother would like that". "Oh forget her she can't control the connections i make outside her influence". "I don't think she'd like hearing you say that bro". I turn around and see the most famous pony in the stable and my little sister velvet remedy. "V-velvet r-remedy what are you doing here". "Well unexpectedly meeting my big brother here and i need my pip-buck checked it's chafing my fore-hoof, i was wondering if you could change the cushioning". "I'd be happy too". "Thank you, it's little pip right". I could hear pips heart beat i chuckle. "You know my name" . "Of course even though we never met officially my brother wouldn't stop talking about you". My face turns red. "T-that's not true" . "Oh and you talking about her constantly" "T-that's only because she didn't look at me just as the over-mares son or your older brother". I say through a stutter. "Oh is that all" . "Shut up" . She giggles. "So how long will it take little pip" . "Uh it'll be finish by tomorrow, i can bring it to you if you like". "That sounds wonderful well I'm off". "I'll catch up sis i want to talk to you" . "Alright". She leaves and i see pip staring and i elbow her playfully and she blushes and pushes me. "See ya pip" . "See ya chaos" . I leave but didn't know pip had a blush. 'Did he actually have a crush on me'. She thought. With me I catch up to velvet and have a serious face. "So your going through with it" . "Yes I'm going through with it". "Did you pack that taser i smuggled out" . "Bro-". I make her look at me. "Did you pack it" . She sighed. "Yes". "Are you sure about this and are you sure you don't want! me to come with you". "I'm sure". I hug her tightly some tear go down my face. "I'm going to miss you little sister". She hugs back. "You too big brother". I pull back. "Be safe you hear me your one of the only ones i care about". "What about mom". "We both know what's she like, she's so controlling as soon as you got your cutie mark she totally disregarded your dreams of being a doctor to help other ponies". She tears up and hugs me tighter." I'm going to miss you so much big brother". She sobs out. "Me too sis, me too". Some tears drop from my face as well then i wipe my eyes. Now hurry up and get everything ready. "Right love you" . "Love you too sis" . We depart from each other and i continue my day with doing odd jobs through out the stable while doing that some of my skills leveled up and i gain a few. Mechanic. [LVL:1] XP:1000 left Understand the inner workings of machines to either reprogram or fix them Chance of success: 5% 'Alright today has been a productive that mechanic skill will be useful in the long run'. I say in my head then i see a bottle cap from a nuka-cole on the ground. I sigh. "Ponies these days" . I pick it up but then a notification pop. Bottle cap Currency of the wasteland 'Currency of the wasteland that's interesting'. I say in my head, then another notification pops up. Through a repeated action a skill has been created Observe. [LVL:1] XP:1000 left This skill allows you to get information from objects or ponies to get the upper hand or their history and value I smirk. 'Now that's something i can really use'. I think then someone wraps their arms around my neck. "Hello~chaos". 'Oh celestia and luna'. I say in my head. "Hello honey lemon". I turn around. "Hehe how's my favorite handyman doing~". "Good how have you been honey lemon". "I've been so lonely without you why don't you visit anymore". She says with a pout. "Cause everytime I'm their you try to pull me in to sleep with you". "Sooo~". "You call me to fix something, i do and try to get in my pants, i don't mind but it's confusing are you trying to sleep with me because you actually like me or is it to get in good with my mom". She gasps and looks offended. "How dare you" . "Oh how dare i, it's pretty much what everyone in this stable expect my friend pip does they want to get close to me to either close to my mom or sister what about me huh don't i matter enough to be shown any interest huh everybody in this stable expect pip sees me as either the over-mares son or velvet remedies big brother"! I practically yell wiping away the tears that were coming. She looks at me in shock and sorrow. "Has that really happened to you" . She cups my cheek. "Yes too many times and i hate it, I'm my own pony and nobody sees that". "I do, I'm so sorry i never considered your feelings at the start i just liked seeing your reaction to my advances i thought it was really cute how you were so nice to me and asked nothing in return and how you looked at me like a mare instead of a object". She says with a sad smile. I cup her cheek and look into her eyes and she looks back, we slowly lean in but then i get an alert on my pip-buck and we stop, i look and it's my mom. "Um i need to take this" . "Uh y-yeah" . I answer it." Yes". "Come to my office" . I sigh in annoyance. "Yes mom". I hang up. "I have to go" . "I know, let-let's talk later". "Sure ". I smile then kiss her cheek then leave her a blushing mess as i head to my mom's office. I pass some guard ponies remembering the times i help in hand to hand combat drills and remember seeing them at the firing range. Then a few notifications pop up. For witnessing a skill in progress you've unlocked another gamer ability Gamer's sight [LVL:MAX] This skill allows for the gamer to gain skills by witnessing other skills giving them a slight chance to gain that skill You've gain two new skills Hand to hand combat [LVL:5] XP:1800 left The proficiency of fighting with your fist to defend or attack Firearms mastery [LVL:1] XP:1000 left Be a master with any firearm you pick up I smirk. 'Now this is getting interesting'. I dismiss all the windows and finally make it to the over mares office aka my mom's office. I enter. "Hey mom or is it over-mare cause i can't tell if your going to scolded me as either". "Don't take that tone with me young man" . "And why not it seems to be the only tone you seem to acknowledge". She sighs in frustration. "I'm not starting this again chaos, anyway what have i told you about going around and doing those odd jobs". "And like I've said multiple times what's the issue". "The issue is that every pony here has their own purpose that specifically made for them you don't you've been just lucky with helping". "Oh here we go again you just can't let anyone being good at something with out their precious cutie mark". "Because if one pony without a cutie mark then all of them will think that it will throw off the stability of the stable". "You know what I'm not dealing with this today you just can't help yourself to be this controlling". I get up and leave not listening to my mo- no my over-mares orders to get back there. When i get back to my room better put my tools in my inventory cause i doubt she'll take this laying down, then I'll go check on the only two doctors that actually let me help and doesn't care what mom says. Time-skip I'm heading to the medical wing and I'm getting curious looks from the guard ponies then i get a pop up. A new skill has been created Detection [LVL:1] EXP:1000 left This skill allows you to detect others or detect others killer intent or ill will or their over all present Range: 100 feet 'Useful but also not good mom must've told them to keep an eye on me which any of the favors i have with security are null and void damn'. 'I better watch my back don't want mom to catch on to sis's plan'. I head in and find the doc's. (Doc nix) And (Doc bright) "Hey doc bright, hey doc nix how've you two been". "Chaos "! They yell and tackle me into a hug. How's our te- we mean patient. I look at both of them with deadpanned expression. You were about to say test subject weren't you. "Noooo" . They say awkwardly. Then two pop up. A skill has been created Lie detection [LVL:1] EXP: 1000 left This skill allows the player to know when someones lying Skill has been copied through gamer's sight Alchemy [LVL:1] EXP: 1000 left This art is an ancient practice that has many applications such as infused metal working,potions,and golem creation( requires the golem skill book, may be found; randomly in shop in the wasteland or picked up after killing boss monster I smile." Your both terrible liars you know that" . They both pout cutely which makes me laugh. "Your both cute when angry". They blush hard. "D-don't lie chaos it's mean" . "Why would i lie". They blush harder and say sheepishly. "Thank you". "No problem my cute little doctors". "Shut up, shut up, shut up". They whine cutely. I chuckle we get up and i help them around their lab, while grinding my observe skill to which it leveled up five times and alchemy and mechanic by two and my INT stat gained five points which will help later. "Thanks for all the help as usual chaos" . "No problem bright, nix see you later" . "Or tonight". They whisper. "Huh ". I say confused. "Nothing" . They sing. O-k. I left. The doctors POV "So are we still on for tonight" . Nix asks. Bright checks her pip-buck and confirms the message from honey lemon. "Yep good to go" . We cheer excitedly. "He's going to be so surprised" . "We leave to sneak to our destination" . Chaos's POV After a few more odd jobs and avoiding my mom and guards, i make it to my room, i enter while yawning but when i open my eyes after and left gawking at something i didn't expect, honey lemon,doc bright, and doc nix all in my room. "Welcome back chaos". They all say in sultry and seductive voices, i gulp. "Um hey um w-what ya doing here" . They all look at each other then giggle while slowly approaching and I'm slowly backing up, then nix and bright ponce and knocking me on the ground while honey locks the door. "W-what's going on" . I look at them while groan from nix and bright starting to kiss my neck, then honey straddles me. Then she starts to speak in a sultry voice. "Still don't understand our precious stallion". "No I'm really dumb sometimes". I squeak out as the doctors start nibbling my coat and neck. Then they pull away and i look at all three of them panting slightly, and their looking at me with love and lust. "We love you, you big lug" . "W-wait what"? I look at all them surprised but also confused. "It's true all three of us have developed feelings for you". Honey confirmed. "But why there's nothing special about me". "That's not true"! They all yell. "Eep ". "S-sorry but that's not true" . "What do you mean". "You idiot do we really have to spell it out your the only stallion in this whole stable who isn't nice to us just to get into our pants". "Wait what". I say in shock and slight anger. "Did any of them touch you, hurt you" . I say in concern while sitting up almost knocking honey lemon off my lap as i cup their faces. They blush but then tear up before hugging me tightly then doc nix speaks up. "No but a few did try something good thing you suggested me and bright to make those tasers, we gave one to honey when she came to us saying she had the same problem". I sigh in relief. "That's good i was worried" . Then they look at me with teasing smirks. What. "Wanted to ravage us yourself" . They tease. "W-what T-that's not it" . I say with my cheeks going red. They giggle." We're joking chaos but you are the only one we'd ever let touch us". They say then blush. I look at the dumb struck and then i feel something grab both my hands, i look and it was nix and bright. "Doc bright, n-" . Then they shush me. "Shh call me bright moon" . Doc bright says. "And me nixy gale". Then they continue what they were doing and bring my hands against their breasts. "Can you feel our heartbeats how you make our heart rates increase from just being near you". I don't know what to say then honey lemon grabs my head and puts my head in between her breasts. "Feel my heartbeat too my love feel them increase by your very presents". I feel them, then i take in honeys scent the sweet scent of honey along with the slight sour smell of ripe lemons. Then honey let's go and along with nixy and bright moon take me to my bed and lay me down while hovering above me. "Are you sure I'm the one you want to be with". "We're definitely sure let us show you" . I chuckle. "How can i say no to you girls" . Time-skip I slowly wake up to feel still somewhat exhausted and a weight on my body, when i open my eyes i see a bunch of notifications. Kissing LVL:50 Foreplay LVL:50 Oral LVL:50 Sex LVL:50 Physical Endurance LVL: 25 'Holy shit how wild did we go last night'. I dismiss all the windows to be met with a beautiful sight three mares i love, i smile and brush the hair away from their cute sleeping faces, their faces cutely scrunch up then start to wake up, they quickly look around before their sleepy eyes land on me. "How'd you sleep my dears". I say then caress their faces they respond by nuzzling against my hand. "Better now knowing it wasn't a dream" . Nixy said. "Agreed ". The others chimed in. "So i guess we're a herd now aye" . "Yes and we couldn't be happier". They all say with bright smile which i find adorable, then i bring them into quick but passionate kisses it was a loving moment until guards busted in the room causing the girls to yelp in surprise holding me close while also trying to cover themselves with the blanket. "The hell if the doors locked its for a reason". The guards just look at each other then back at us mostly my girls. "Hey ass-hats stop staring at my girls or I'll shove my hoof up your asses now, what do you need we were having a moment". Then one spoke up. "U-um the over-mare is calling a emergency meeting for the whole stable there was an incident". I sigh. "Alright get out we need to get dressed" . They dispersed. "That sure killed the mood" Then they hugged me. "Eh we knew we'd need to get up at some point". Bright moon said "Yeah we still have duties" . Nixy added "And you need to get back to being everyone's loveable handy man". Honey finished. I smile at them a peck their lips." I love you girls" . "We love you too and as your alpha mares of your herd we give you permission to add more mares as long as they love you as much as we do". I blush. "Well i doubt there are any in this stable so I'll settle for my three beautiful mares here". I say then start to play with them by nibbling at their necks. They start giggling. "Chaos stop we need to get dressed" . I pout. "Oh fine". They giggle more, then give me pecks on my lips. "Oh don't worry our handsome stallion you'll have us all to yourself when night comes". They say then purr seductively. I growl in response. "Can't wait" . Then we get up and get dressed and make our way too the auditorium for the emergency meeting and we meet pip there, pip saw how the three clung to me and started poking fun and teasing me which i respond with bringing her into a headlock while giving her a nudge, then the over-mare showed herself standing at the podium. "Hello mares and stallions of stable 2 i have distressing news it seems last night our beloved velvet remedy left the safety of the stable". That got gasps and murmurs of distress. "But worry not with her still having her pip-buck we can track her and bring her home". I smirk. "That won't work sis would have gotten ri-". My eyes widen in horror and look at pip who had the same realization. "Oh no" . "Pip get behind me" . "Chaos i-". "Doesn't matter now, behind me". She does and after that mom activated the tracker but then every pony there starts hearing the ping coming from inside the room, look around then they start looking my direction, more specifically to pip behind me holding the pip-buck their eyes widen and then some turn to angry glares and some start to approach but stop when they got close and their blood ran cold when i start giving them a murderous glare. "You even try I'll kill you, i was there yesterday my sister ask for the cushions to be changed neither me or pip could've of thought this was the reason, now back up". But in their anger two stallions charge. "Alright let's do this" . One attack with a right hook but i deflect it then put his arm into a lock and start punching him in the face, then my other attacker tries to attack, push the other stallion into his strike then kicked him away then kneed the stomach before punching him knocking him out then i look at the other stallion and he's holding his chest. "Stand down" . He doesn't listen and i slip past his strike and put him in a head lock, head tried to over power me by running me into a wall but before he could i kick his legs out from under him and he goes on his knees. "Sh sh sh just go to sleep" . After a few seconds he goes limp and i drop him. "Anyone else cause the next one who attacks i kill so please attack cause i have a lot of issues to dish out". They keep back. "That's what i thought, come on pip, girls". We walk off from the group. I look at pip and she's still in shock. "It's alright pip i don't blame you my sister has always been impulsive but i wish i could've said goodbye". She shakes off her shock and looks at me with a sad look and i just ruffle her mane. "I'll be alright".i then sigh."But after that incident my mom is going to be on my flank like crazy". I feel my girls hug me and i chuckle. "Thanks let's get back to the room, pip you can come too if you don't feel safe". "N-no it's fine chaos thanks though". "No problem stop by my room if anyone gives you any problems". "Sure" . We go our separate ways and the over mare announces this a day of mourning so me and the girls spent most of the day kissing and cuddling only coming out for food. Time-skip Me and the girls are the bed I'm only have shorts on while they only have their bra and panties on while the blanket covers us as we held each other,i slowly wake up trying not to wake up the girls and i get out of bed but accidentally wake them up. They look at me with a cute pout. "Come back to bed we demand more cuddles" . I chuckle at their cuteness. "Sorry girls i wanted to check on pip she was really bummed out yesterday i just want to make sure she's okay". "Oh we'll-". "No it's okay besides i want to be welcomed back by your beautiful selves we i get back and maybe we can have a bit of fun before we set out for the day". They leer at me with lust. "Then hurry back handsome" . Honey says. "Yeah we'll need it for the possibly stressful day it'll hold us over until tonight". Bright and Nixy adds. "Hehe alright my beautiful mares" . I give them all quick pecks on the lips and head to pips room, when i get there i knock on the door but after a few no answer, i then use an override key i " borrowed" from security, i head inside but she wasn't there which was confusing cause the work day doesn't start, i then go to the pip-buck technician workshop but not there either, then i bring up my pip-buck and type her pip-buck registration number in and my eyes go wide and it shows she's in a completely blacked out area of the map far away from the stable, i rush to my mothers office and practicality kick the door down. "Is it true" . "Oh hello son what has you so upset. She says with a lack of emotion and doesn't even look up from her papers. "Did pip go out of the stable". "Who". "The small pip-buck technician that had sis's pip-buck". "Oh yes her yes what of it". "Did no one try to stop her". "Oh yes you can ask the guards she knocked unconscious before opening the stable door and left, is that all our do you have something more important to discuss with me". "But why". "Cause she thought in her infinite wisdom thought if she could bring back my daughter she'd be welcomed back with open arms". "Because she was being harassed by everypony because she was doing her job like you always encourage oh so great over-mare"! "Do not take that tone with me young man"! "I'll do as i damn please you've been like since dad died"! Then she slaps me. -50 I touch my cheek then look at her. "Don't you dare talk to me about that stallion you get your rebellious nature from him". "Well at least i know how important family is to you". I get up and leave. "Get back here I'm not done"! "But i am". Then i leave to my room. Slight Time-skip I'm in my room with the girls. "I've decided" . They look at me worried then grab onto me i look at them and they are slightly crying. "Please don't go" Honey says. "We can't lose you". Bright adds. "Please stay with us".nixy jumped in. I look at them saddened and hug them. "I want to, celestia and luna knows i want to spend every moment of everyday and night with you three but i need to go to make sure that bullheaded mare doesn't get herself killed remember she's my first friend i need to have her back". They hold me tight and sob quietly. After they slowly stop they say. "Then we'll start packing" . "Out of the damn question it's not safe" . "And it's safe for you". "Hell no but I'm an idiot". "That's not a good reason, in fact it makes us worry more". "You being smarter then me is the exact reason you need to stay here cause an only an idiot would go through with this plan". "But how will we know if your alive have you even thought about not knowing that fact will make us". I did and i have a secret to reveal to you, 'create party; invite honey lemon,bright moon,and nixy wind'. Then three boxes appear in front of them and slightly jump in surprise. "Press the y icon" . They do and jump again, I'm guess from the hud i see all their status bars and smile and look towards them. "This is my life now some force gave me these powers and i need to use them to protect you and her and this way you can see my status out there so please stay here and stay safe that's all i ask and i want you to be careful". They're still a bit confused but cave. "Alright but if you get seriously hurt out there we'll kick your ass". I chuckle. "Yes ma'ams". I give them all a long passionate kiss then pull away." I love you all" . "We love you too, please be safe". "I'll try my best". They nod and let go. I start collecting things and putting them into my inventory like my tool box, food,and i start calling in favors and i sneak to the security wing to steal a gun, not the smartest idea if you didn't call in a favor from the security station that controls the camreas, i enter security and head to the weapon lockers, when i reach the room i head to one of the lockers but then i noticed two guns and an advanced pip-buck in display cases and i know the guns well they belonged to me and vevlet's dad. Ace and pathbringer they belonged to dad, he was head of security when he was alive, i go over and break all the cases and then take of my pip-buck and put on the new one, the needles stab into my arm. "Buck" . Then a message appears on the screen as in boots up. -50 New user registered pip-buck 900 now active, welcome new user "Ow damn that hurt well at least i can use it now". I grab the holsters for my dads guns and put the guns in, the go back to the locker and mange to pick the lock but there weren't and guns but just a large tube the my new pip-buck talks again. {Stealth buck detected retrieving now} Then a panel constructs from it and the tube flies to it and once it connects it seemingly dematerializes and then i speaks again. {Stealth buck reserves: 1} 'This thing is cool as all hell'. Then i hear a bucnch of cocking noises, i turn around and see a bunch of security ponies. "Oh buck me" . "Get on the ground" . "How about i don't and say that i did" . "We won't ask again you may be the over-mares son but that doesn't exclude you from the rules". Then they heard my pip-buck say. {User in danger stealth buck engaged} "Whah" . Then my whole body became transparent. Well that helps. I thought to myself. But I need to get passed them but how, I wish I had something to stun then all. Then I hear a voice come from pathbringer. {Stun bullets engaged} 'Huh'. I take out pathbringer and it's glowing blue and crackling. O-k. I look back up and see the guards still looking for me and spread out, I notice one alone. 'Goddesses I hope this works'. Then I shoot him which no sound can from pathbringer and it looks like at small device shoot out and attached itself on him, which he noticed but before he could grab it a powerful electrical charge hits him, he screams in pain then collapses and the device seems to destroy itself. The other guard ponies hurry over to check on their fallen comrade, before I leave I check his status bar and it lucky only took off twenty health and gave him the status effect {unconscious}. I sigh relief and hurry to the stable door and I make it to the consule then my pip-buck says. {User is no longer in danger disengaging stealth buck, 65% of power used, 35% left} 'Well that's interesting but also helpful. But then I realize something, I bucking don't know the accesscode'. Then it speaks again. {External consule detected establishing connection} 1% 10% 40% 70% 100% {Connection established two commands detected} Open Close The second command is grayed out meaning it won't show until I open it. "Open it" {Acknowledged, sending command to consule, error command requires passcode} "Buck, can the passcode be recovered from the last times it was punched in". {Acknowledged, searching, processing, successful, passcode enter command acknowledged stable unsealing process commenced} Then the door is slowly opening as I was at the consule I started hear a stamped of hoofs I run to the door as the security ponies opened fire I slide through the crack,but not without a bullet grazing my shoulder. -45 Close it! {Acknowledged} Then it reverses and closes then I look at my arm, may be a graze but it hurts like hell. Then my pip-buck says. {Low light detected activating light spell} Then my pip-buck illuminates and all around me is ponies skeletons and one thing, one thing comes to my mind. "What in Tartarus have I gotten myself into". //-------------------------------------------------------// Welcome to Ponyville, Raiders //-------------------------------------------------------// Welcome to Ponyville, Raiders 'Ok, calm down chaos old boy you're surrounded by pony skeletons, okay in hindsight I should be freaking the Taurus out but am not, I guess gamer's mind is kicking in, all those stories about outside the stable were bad but i didn't think it was this bad these ponies died trying to get in before the blast or they were survivors looking for shelter after and we did nothing'. I feel guilt but shake it off. 'Theirs nothing I could've done my mom would have stopped me before I tried while I'm here I might as well check the info on ace and pathbringer'. I use observe. Ace Weapon type: Handcannon Item grade: Legendary Durability: unbreakable Special skill: sunburst; this skill will be unlocked at LVL: 10; once you get a headshot enemy will explode, if enemies are close will receive burn damage for one minute Pathbringer Weapon type: Handcannon Item grade: Legendary Durability: unbreakable Special skill: Elemental shots; this skill allows user to ask for element type ammo then have to wait one hour before next use of said element 'Well these are interesting no wonder dad told me never to play with these, well time to move out'. I holster both my guns and head out what looks like a dark tunnel good thing my pip-buck illuminates my surroundings so i don't trip over my own hooves or the skeletons, i mange to reach the end and the door was open guess pip didn't close it when getting out so i know I'm on the right track. I head out and the whole world is dark as tartarus but there's some light, i look up and see then there seems to be a constant cloud cover. "What the hell that's not how those books me and velvet described the sky, sure we thought it would most likely be different cause the detonation of the mega-spells but the constant cloud cover is strange". I start looking around my surroundings and notice a barn and start heading towards it, when i finally got close my pip-buck goes off. {Alert,Alert stable-tech cache in close proximity} 'Huh a stable-tech cache was the pony that use to live here affiliated with them'. Then my pip-bucks screen turned into compass dial and pointed southwest of the barn, i follow it, it looked like it was leading to the back of the barn, i get to the back and the dials pointing due west, i look and see what looks like a cellar door. "That must be it or where it's hiding" . I head towards it cautiously, i go for the handle with one hand and the other on ace's grip and in one swift motion i open the cellar and also take out ace aiming inside looking around inside to make sure theirs no pony hiding, i also check my pip-buck's detection spell and used detection to make sure nothing in there and i see on blip and the blip was just in range of detection. I take a breath calming myself even though I have gamer's mind it only mildly calms my nerves and is primarily used to stop mental attacks and mind control so i need to go in to situations with a level head, with that thought do let's head in. I decent the stairs slowly and quietly as i can, with ace cocked i reach the bottom and my pip-buck's light spell goes off and the cellar lights up, i slowly proceed down the slight long corrade of the cellar and see a turn but also hear rattling at the end of it, i slow my pace and turn the conor and are met with something i didn't expect something that looked like a canine but looked mutated it had a brown coat and white under belly (think of a mutated version of winona) it looks scrawny and malnourished and it has some cuts on its body, then it spots me and growls, it doesn't seem to be a threat so i put away ace and cautiously approached with my hand out stretched to it, it growls still but doesn't attack, it maybe cautious as well because of its weakened state, it was about to bark to scare me away but before it could i put my hand on it's head and start to pet it, it stops growling and looks at me then something happened i didn't expect tears flowed down it's face and it tackles me whimpering and crying, i look down at it and then i understand. "You've been alone for so long haven't you, no one to keep you company to care for you, to show you love and give you love". It continues to whine and nuzzles me. "Shh it's alright you don't have to be alone anymore I'll take you with me if you want". It looks at me as if seeing if I'm lying after a few minutes it starts licking my face. "Haha down i get it your excited you'll drown me in love before we leave". It barks and i hear it's stomach growl then whimpers to me. "I don't have any meat on me do you want to eat a apple". It nods, i quickly get one out of my inventory and hold it out, which they devoured it, then i pet their head. "Hehe don't worry as soon as we get on the road I'll try to get enough meat for you, by the way do you have a name". It walks away for a few seconds, then came back with and collar and name tag on it, i look at it to read what it says. "W-W-Winona" . They bark happily and nuzzles me i chuckle. "Hehe so your names winona a perfect name for a handsome b-". They start to growl. "Alright Alright a beautiful girl such as yourself". She lifts her snout in the air in pride and recognition. "Hey girl is there are their any boxes down here with these words on them". I lift up my pip-buck to show the stable-tech logo on it. She looks away for a sec with her eyes closed as to think, then turns back to me and barks, before getting behind me and pushing me off the ground and pushing me to what I'm looking for. "Ok ok I'm going" . She keeps pushing me forward until i see. "So this is it" . I crouched down and open it and it open in a crazy way, once opened two mechanical platforms that shows two boxes of ammo and a giant staff on the bottom i first put the ammo in my inventory and i found out that the inventory put them automatically in their ammo type and i believe if i press on the type it pops out which would help a lot, then i grab the handle from what I see is it has a handle with s trigger, once i take it out of the box i feel my hand getting pricked. "Ow buck me" . -100 Why'd this one take off a hundred. {New user found, magic matrix reinitializing, magi axe online} "Huh" . Then it starts to glows blue and then the tip pops out a axe curve.  (For all us rvb fans out there you know where this is from) 'Buck me this is crazy'. I then use observe on it. Magi Axe Durability: 240000\240000 Item class: legendary Weapon type: Melee Special trait: Magic slam{locked}; this attack takes 1000 mana to create a powerful shockwave to stagger or kill an area of enemies, caution:will harm allies as well make sure they are clear; unlocked steps: reach level 40, STR:150 "Holy shit that's crazy I can't use ace's ability until i hit level ten i can understand but forty and strength a hundred and fifty jeez*sigh* well I'm in this waste land now might as well grind my levels on skills and myself speaking of skills i have magic but i doubt i have enough to make a familiar pack with winona, i believe that's what they're called cause i only saw a brief instance of mentioning in the concept in a book i saw when i was younger". I look back into the box and it looks like there's a holster go the axe, i pick it up and strap it on then i look at the axe which was still on. "Um deactivate" . {Deactivating} Then it shuts off. "Oh thank the sisters it worked" . I then put it in the holster, i turn back to winona and she's laying there waiting for me to finish, i look at he cuts on her body some look old and have healed but some look like they were made a few days ago. "Let's get you treated okay girl" . I take out some healing bandages, a low grade healing potion, cotton balls and tweezers luckily when sis wanted to be a medical pony i read some of her books so i know somewhat of what I'm doing. I go over set the items down and use the tweezers to grab a cotton ball then i pop the cork on the healing potion and dab it the cotton ball in the potion then look at winona. "This may sting bare with me ok" . She whimpers but nods. "Alright here we go". I started slowly dragging the potion drenched cotton ball against one of the wounds and I can hear Winona's pained whimpers. "Shh it's alright, I'm here girl". I keep the process going for a while until i got all the wounds and they started to heal then i tell her to stand, then i wrap the healing bandages around her body tightly to keep the healing process going. "Feeling better girl" . She barks and licks my face. "Hehe good to hear". The i see a notification. First aid LVL: 1 EXP:0.00 % You are adept in the basics of first aid to clean, disinfect wounds to keep your allies and yourself healthy Efficiency: 5 % 'Sweet well at least I'll get better at it and it seems the experience bar changed hmm i should check my stats'.

Those two are gonna give me a grey coat at this point. I look at winona, who looks like she's feeling better, the i decide to use observe on her. Winona Species: mutant hound Title: apple families pup Lvl: 35 HP: 1560|3000 MP:0 Observe lvl up Can see name, species, title,level,hp ,and mp 'Sweet'. I dismiss the screen. "Come on girl we got some traveling too do". She barks happily jumping around making me chuckle "Hehe come on pup lets move" . We proceed out of the cellar then i just thought of something. "Ugh I'm an idiot why'd I not think of this before". I bring up my pip-buck. "Bring up the map" . {Acknowledged} Then instead of it being on the screen of my pip-buck two mechanical panels extend from it and shot out light when they collided a holo map. "Who in the buck designed this pip-buck this is way more advanced than any back in the old world and who was it's previous owner". I look at the holo map and it marked this area as the sweet apple acres and through those dead trees there's a town called ponyville. "Alright we have a destination let's move shall we". She barks in agreement. We start heading out, but when we get to the edge of the forest i start smelling something. Huh was there a fire earlier before i came out. Winona seems to have picked up the same smell and starts going towards it, pull out ace and pathbringer and follow behind keeping my eyes open cause there are to many places for ponies to pop out of, then we come upon what we assume where the smells coming from, i see and circle of rocks. "Huh" . I go over and kneel down and put my hand in the circle and scoop up some of the black substance." Soot this must have been a campsite but if it was where the ponies go the stable's the other way interesting". I get up and wipe of the soot on my jumpsuit. We continue walking following the map but then i see Winona stop and start growling, i go over and pet her back and her hairs are standing on end which could mean enemies. "Let's proceed with caution" . She nods. I ready my guns and we keep going after a while i see what she's so cautious about there were bodies all over the ground. "Shit i guess there was a battle not to long ago and from the looks of it must've been yesterday". (A\N: Chaos is one day behind pip and they'll meet in new applosa before they go to the stable) "Well let's see what i can salvage from them might be some food and ammo on them". Then i notice something round and metallic near the bodies furthest from the bridge, and go over while it looks like Winona was looking around the body's, i reach it and kneel down then use observe.  Sprite bot (broken) 'Huh i think i saw one of these in an old magazine the stable had in the library they were made by the ministry of moral i believe it was called, hmm maybe i can bring it with me i could use it to grind my mechanic skill and if I'm lucky enough fix it but definitely going to deactivate it's song protocols I'm all about up lifting music but i can only take so much'. I grab it and place it in my inventory and get up then i hear a crunching sound,i quickly spin around guns pointed but see it's just Winona munching on one of the bodies. *Trying not to barf* "Well that's gross" . I walk back over and pat her back signaling it's time to go,she lift her head her muzzle covered in blood and still chewing on that ponies intestines, which prompts me to go behind a tree to barf, after that we head for the bridge to ponyville but then i see Winona go after something that was in the river. 'By the sisters don't let it be another dead body'. Then she comes back with something in her mouth. "Huh whatcha got there girl". I take it from her mouth and it's a flask with the logo for stable 2 on it, then i hug and ruffle her fur. "Great work girl now we know we're on the right track". She growls happily at the praise, i start looting the bodies on the bridge but then i see something that doesn't sit right well two things, one; if everyponies dead how did these parts of the bridge get blasted away, and two; these shackles and it worries me more that there are two sets but it somewhat puts my mind at ease that they're here instead of not being there. "Looks like pip ran into some trouble out here but it's good to see she handled herself let's hope she can handle herself until i find her". We keep going over the bridge while collect what i can, from the bodies a total of three hundred and fifty caps which i put in my inventory and i picked up some leg and arm guards that looked somewhat intact, probably not sturdy enough to block bullets but good enough, we proceed and make it into town and my pip-buck beeps and i look at it and it pulls up the map but instead of the surrounding area it shows the streets and towns layout. "Okay I'm liking this pip-buck more and more". I see on the map it shows the names of some of the buildings the closest to me is the ponyville library but it has a strange symbol next to the name on the map, i follow the road and map and get there and it looks like the bridge like a battle took place, i look it over and see the balcony. "Well that explains the holes in the bridge sniper nest but I'm assuming pip killed all the ponies or else I'd had my head blown off before i reach the town." Then a notification pops up. Historical landmark discovered Ponyville library Reward: 300 XP, 300 caps 'Woah sick looks like i get rewards based on the importance of the landmark was to history'. I look at Winona and she looks really sad. "What's wrong girl". She whimpers as she looks at the building. "Wait do you know this place" . She nods. "Wait how old are you girl were you alive back during the war". She nods tears flowing, i hug her. "I'm so sorry Winona you must miss them dearly, i bet they didn't mean to leave you behind if they made it to the stable but know that i will keep you company as long as i live". She licks my face happily. "Alright let's go inside see if we can't find anything to A; loot or b; figure out where pip went". She nods, and we proceed to find a way inside, we would have used the front door but it's heavily boarded up, we swing around back and see the back door open and we head inside, with me having ace out of course, and what i see is a complete battlefield in this place there's bullet holes everywhere and dead ponies in the same makeshift armor as the ones on the bridge go to loot the bodies but they're already been picked clean and i smile. "That a girl pip getting what you can to survive I'm proud of ya, but you could have at least save some for me". I say jokingly and continue through the library while hearing munching and sigh. "Guess she found another body" . I keep going and find the libraries main area and find something truly unsettling there was the remains of cages and in looks like an explosive or explosives went off in here and there was a pony still one. "By the sisters" . I kneel down and touch the body it seems to have cooled down. "Don't worry I'll give you a proper burial once I'm done no one should be left like this and i would wish this on my worst enemies*sigh*i shouldn't say that it maybe my worst enemy who does something like this but it's a nice though that I'd be that merciful". I turn around and notice a door, i do a quick whistle call for Winona who scurries over. "Hang back a little and follow just in case". She nods. I open it and there's nothing behind it but there are a set of stairs and i slowly start to descend but the my detection skill and pip-buck go off, i quickly look at my pip-buck and it shows the lay out of the library and I'm going to the basement and it shows a green and red dot on my map, i lightly quicken my pace but slow my pace once i reach the bottom of the stairs, i hear the crys of a mare and then a stallions voice rings out. "Shut up bitch" . The mare seems to quiet down and whimpers. "Bucking finally you've been crying for hours hoping that bucking cunt that killed the rest of my people would hear your stupid ass well guess what they left and ain't coming back now, i need to get back all the caps i lost from those escaped slaves that cunt even let our pleasure toy go upstairs young thing too i hadn't even gotten my turn yet". I start gripping ace's handle in rage. "But i guess you'll do and maybe I'll turn you into a pleasure hole for other raider tribes we happen to come across to either pay the toll of for entering their territory or for caps". He chuckles darkly. "I hope they don't mind you being pre used". Then i hear zip, I've had enough. As he was about to have his way and the mare was crying out for help i combat roll out of cover aiming ace. "Not another step shit stain".He Quickly turns around seeing me. "Now put that thing away before i shoot it off and trust me you'll be lucky enough that'll be the only bullet in your body". He quickly does so and looks back up but then gets super scared when he looks at my pistol. "N-no your supposed to be dead you haven't been seen in years they said you were dead". I look slightly confused but i quickly roll with it to hopefully get some information out of him. "Well that's what I wanted you shitheads to believe give you a false sense of hope now remind me what am i that strikes fear into you raider scumbags". "The courier, the bane of slavers, enemy of the enclave, plague of the steel rangers, the destroyer". 'This pony sounds dangerous as hell'. But quickly respond. "Good to hear my resume again and to see you lot still piss yourselves at the site of my gun so what's been going on since my absences anything new I've been out of the loop for a good while". "Well mister courier there is someone rallying the slavers under his banner". "Does anyone know why or the name of the pony or is that a mystery". "No he's pretty well known called red-eye he fancies himself the leader of the wasteland but more like just king of the slavers and rumors say he has powerful backing nobody knows from what or who and if they found out they're mostly dead". 'Good to know let's see of this courier had any allies'. I start talking again." What about my allies any of them still kicking". "Yeah you're biggest backer DJ pon-3 is still alive and kicking". "And where can i find them". "Only a select few know rumors say that they're held up at ten pony tower in the ruins of Manehattan". "Good to know might check up on them for old time sake anyone else". "Some of the steel rangers still hold you in high regards even though your against their policy of hording and controlling old world tech". "Also good to know, since you've been so sporting I'll give you till the count of three to leave". He starts scrambling, going past me and trying to go up the stairs but the last thing he hears before a bullet goes through his skull. "Three" . Then the shot rings out the bullet going through his skull killing him instantly. "Bucking shit stain" . Then a small notification pops up. Defeated common raider; 300 XP 'Well go to know'. I hurry over to the mare and start breaking the locks on her chains as soon as i finish i get look at her she's a purple unicorn mare with a light violet mane and it looks like her horn was broken but not by the raiders but by something else and she's wearing armor which she probably new to being enslaved and was sold with the armor hoping to get a better price but i can only speculate I'd rather not try to understand the mind of slavers or the people who by slaves.  "Sorry to ask the obvious question but are you alright"? I ask while untying her. "Well I've been captured,sold and nearly raped what do you think". She says in a clearly annoyed voice. I sigh. "Yeah i know dumb question but had to start the conversation somehow even though I'm doing poorly". She sighs as well. "Look I'm sorry i just didn't expect this to happen you see I'm a guard pony for ten pony tower in the ruins of Manehattan those bucking slaver scumbags caught me off guard on my usual perimeter check". "Damn that does suck." I say as i finish untying her. She rubs her wrists. "So what's your name" . "Rude not giving yours first even though the whole wasteland knows your legends". "Yeah i know but i thought I'd ask and um yeah about that I'm not this courier that guy was so scared of". She looks at me in shock. "Wait you were talking out your flank but you were so convincing". "Well thanks but that was from the absolute rage i was feeling towards him for attempting to rape you but was able to control it somewhat before putting a bullet in him, which made me feel a bit better". "Well that still doesn't explain why you have his weapons minus what you have on your back". "Yeah I'm just as confused cause these weapons belonged to me and my sister's dad and he was a stable pony like me". "Wait you came from a stable but you just shot that pony without flinching". "Yeah not going to lie I'm not going to be sleeping well for a while but the bastard had it coming". "But there's no way you came from a stable the courier disappeared thirty years ago". "Hey that's when my mom said...she...met...him, holy shit". "Yep apparently your the son of the most feared pony in the equestrian wastelands". "No that can't be then who let my dad in and also why'd they let him stay and let him become head of security... okay that last ones self explanatory, buck my whole life's been I've been lied too dear celestia and luna". "Wait you still praise those two why" . "Before the war they were great rulers they just got put in a difficult situation with the zebra, i personally think the war happened out of ignorance on both sides". She surprised by my answers but accepts it. "Oh by the way names chaos crimson and since i gave you my name can i have yours". "Fine i guess i can give you it as a thanks for saving me names Tempest Shadow". "Nice to meet you tempest, oh right you should meet someone, Winona come down girl". "You have a pony with you and you treat her like a pet". She says angry. "Not exactly a pony". Then she hears foot steps and the sees a big mutant hound coming towards us and starts lick me. "Ah come on girl down meet our new friend". She stops licking me and looks to tempest and walks over and starts circling her while sniffing her, when she finishes she licks her face causing tempest to laugh but the my pip-buck goes off snd my detection skill as well, i quickly bring up my map but it's still just showing the libraries lay out then i get an idea. "Show town map" . {Acknowledged} Then it shows the towns layout and it shows ten red dots. "It's official i love this thing and shit". I take out pathbringer and i look at tempest. "Stay here snd if you can find a weapon defend yourself". Then i look at Winona. "Watch her back girl" . I hurry up stairs and head out the way me and Winona came in and slide my back against the building to keep cover, i look to see the enemy, good news they don't look to heavy armed or armored so it shouldn't be hard but some of those weapons look to be semi-auto gun and i have cocked pistols which have six bullets at best and I'm not that well trained in firearms just yet, i look down and see a good sized rock, i holster path real quick and pick up the rock and toss it and luckily it hits a intact window shattering it getting one of them to shoot at the noise i quickly action roll out of cover and shot that pony in the head while hurrying to a house for cover while the others shoot at me, i shoot back hitting two in the shoulders and another in the leg before getting to cover i did get grazed by three of their bullets -50×3 "Well at least it's just grazes but damn that's smarts". I quickly unholstered path. "Let's see how good this elemental bullet skill is, let's see um flame". Pathbringer starts glowing a reddish orange. "Alright let's test this out" . I circle the house to the back and see one of them and shot path and the results were more then i wished as this pony was set on fire and burned alive. "Okay I'm starting to think if my dad was this courier pony he was sadistic as buck before coming to the stable". I shake the feeling off real quick as i see another pony and they see me first and start shooting and i duck into a alley in-between the house i was behind. "Buck that was close i wish that was one of the ponies i grazed but they must've separated from the group to heal". Then notice one of them in front of the alley I'm in and shoot the mare in the head with the last bullet in ace." Or they're still fighting cause they're dumb as tartarus". Then ace speaks. {Reloading in progress;one minute and fifty seconds} "Alright the hell" . I holster ace the i turn around and see the stallion that was shooting at me earlier and started again but i guess he didn't reload cause only three bullets came out but one embedded itself in my shoulder. "Buck me" . And quickly shoot him with path which i forgot was still shooting flame bullets and torches the stallion. "Well better remember when those are enabled". I look at my shoulder. "By the sun and the moon that hurts" . -85 "Well that was four i believe so six left and four bullets left in path and one big ass axe, let's do this". 'Luckily all the ponies I've shot at have been earth ponies and not unicorns but i have no idea what kind of spells they have out here'. I quickly look out in the main street the pony i shoot in the leg is still there guess they're using them as bait to give my position away, i look around and see two ponies in a house through the broken window, get an idea and shot at the house setting it on fire the two scramble out of the house and i take two more shots catching them on fire. "One shot left'. Then my detection skill goes off and i quickly action roll to the left and turn around taking a shot at the pony killing the pony. 'Thank you detection skill'. I say then holster path and take out the magi axe." Alright let's do this, Activate" . {Acknowledged} It comes to life. 'Well time to see if you're just for show, alright there should be three left minus the one on the ground which that makes two and i don't know if they have have guns i only saw their numbers and some having guns'. Then i hear a battle cry or more of idiotic yell. "You bucking cunt your so dead"! He comes out ready to shoot but i had thrown my axe cutting off his head. "Oh gods gonna be sick" . I swallow it back down and retrieve my axe then i hear the last pony i turn around and one thought went through my head. Of course they're a unicorn. They're standing in the middle of the road and scream. "Time to die you bucking shit stain"! And then he shoots a magical blast from his horn. In a desperate act i swing the axe at the beam and to both or surprises once the axes blade made contact with the beam it was destroyed, i quickly shock off the shock and charged the pony before he came back to his senses, once he did the last thing he saw was me bringing down my axe and them i split him in half. I let out some pants of exhaustion. "Well al-" . I don't finish my thought and start puking for a good minute. "Oh good gods that was awful but i saw the numbers above them they were raiders and pretty high levels eleven and fifteens". Then a bunch of notifications pop up. You defeated common raider×10; 300 XP×10 You've leveled up×2 You've discovered the magi axe's special skill: Magic smasher; this skill allows the axe to smash through almost any magic weather it be offensive or defensive Detcetion has leveled up×2 Firearm proficiency lvl×4 You've cleared the surrounding area of raiders, area may now be populated by settlers and merchants Rewards:1100 caps, magi axe attachment, pip-buck attachment, mission tab available Rewards sent to inventory 'Well that makes me feel a little better not by much but enough, and i get missions now and those attachments sound promising let's check them real quick'. I open my inventory and pull them out and use observe and it levels again. Magi axe form attachment: sword Pip-buck attachment: grappling hook/chain spear 'Oh now that's promising'. Look around and see the death i caused and let out a sigh. "I know i shouldn't feel bad but I can't help it they were still ponies no matter how evil but i will own up to my sins when the time comes but that time will come later i need to find my friend then smack her in the head for being so damn dumb'. I quickly put the attachments on and head back to the library on thought kept coming. 'What will this new land of equestria throw at me next i wonder'. //-------------------------------------------------------// Calamity,Reunion //-------------------------------------------------------// Calamity,Reunion Start treading back to the library to get Winona maybe, just so we can move out, I split my AP points, putting five in perception and five in agility cause I need a bit more reaction and relative speed if I'm going to be dodging bullets out here and then there's this pop up that showed up after I got that mission tab. Mission obtained Search and possibly rescue Your friend is somewhere in the wasteland searching for your sister; find both a confirm their safety [0/2] Reward: your nerves calmed Failure: their deaths 'We thanks a lot mysterious power that puts my mind so much more at ease*sighs* well let's hurry back'. I go to the backdoor once I enter, I'm met with the backside of a frying pan. -83 "MOTHERBUCKER MY NOSE"!! "CHAOS"!!! "Oh my gods I'm so sorry you said find something to defend myself with and all the other guns here are either destroyed or out ammo". "Well that's a relief I'd rather have a broken nose then shoot in the face, ow shit sticks". "Here let me take a look they had us take basic combat medic drills". "Ah sure". She puts her hands on my muzzle and used her thumbs to check my nose to make sure it's not broken. "Ok it's not broken just will hurt for a while". "Well that's reassuring hell of a swing by the way". "Thanks, trained in melee weapons too". I'll bet now we're heading out let's collect all we can then get moving. "Wait we". "Yeah what you thought I was going to leave you semi defenseless and alone in this wasteland". "But how can you tru-".but I cut her off. "I don't". "W-what"? "I don't trust you at least not fully but i trust you enough not try anything under the threat me or Winona won't shoot you or tear your throat out". "A-alright". "Good now start collecting anything that looks useful for the track food that looks almost edible, bobby pins, tools, etc". "Right boss". "Boss"? "Oh sorry that's what I usually called my captain back at ten pony". "Well you can call me chaos, but if we encounter any settlers or raiders call me courier i might not be my dad but let's use it as a information gather or fear tactic". "Right chaos". She goes off to find supplies then i look at Winona. "What do you think girl think we can trust her. She puts her paw under her chin as to think then barks. Hmm your right she could be useful as a source of information let's keep an eye on her just in case okay girl. She barks then licks my cheek then goes off probably to find another body to munch on, I shiver at the thought then start scrounging for whatever i could find". Time-skip "After an hour we converged at the outside of the backdoor". "Alright got everything you could find". "Everything except a working gun". "Don't worry just pick one off the ground. I say as i walk to the front of the building". She looks confused and follows. When we reach the front she's met with the sight she didn't expect all dead raider bodies all over the ground of the town. "You did this". "Yep oh watch your step my pucks somewhere on the ground". "You throw up"? "I split a pony in half you tell me what my reaction should be". I say with a deadpanned expression. "Ehehe good point". She looks and picks up one of the automatic weapons from the dead raider ponies and we continue on with me in front with Winona next to me and tempest behind us. Tempest's POV "Can i really trust the word of this random pony,he says he's a stable pony, but the last one here killed all the ponies in that library and this one killed all these ponies I'll admit they had it coming since they're raiders and he said he pucked but can i really trust him all my training as a guard pony at ten pony never taught me to survive so far from the ruins and maybe just maybe if he is the son of the courier, he could help me back home but maybe i need to think about something to repay him with, maybe caps, or maybe weapons and armor, or even m-'. I stop myself from finishing that sentence my face flares up. 'What the hell was i thinking, he just save me from being raped and now I almost had the thought of repaying him with sex the hell is wrong with me, well he is cute argh no stop it get it out of your head girl, anyway theirs a lot of time before we reach ten pony'. Then i hear his voice. "Hey let's get a move on we're burning whatever you call daylight out here". "Oh yeah coming". I catch up. Chaos's POV We keep moving forward we stumble on the Big Macintosh memorial and i read the placket. Big Macintosh, hero of shattered Hoof Ridge Then a notification pops up Landmark discovered Big Macintosh memorial Rewards: 3000 caps, blueprint: little macintosh ammo, three spell books I'll check those out later, I then see tempest stand at attention and salute the statue, I do the same then i say. "Rest easy solider you earned it that war was something none of us wanted but you and the other solider on both sides gave it your all to protect your homelands you all should be commended for that". Then another pop up shows. Your reputation with Tempest has increased "Huh that's new and guess i made an impression". We continue you on finding more of those spritebots with that triumph music even heard words from that red-eye felo dude sounds like a egotistical prick and speaking right out his flank, while walking i was practicing basic telekinesis on random objects and let me tell you pip and the rest made it look so easy it's true the skill i got when i started training it is lvl six now but to pick up more then one item is super hard if you don't focus and i think tempest has started to notice it's me i don't know if i should lie or explain this weird system i have, and I'm still not sure what my cutie mark means is it solely connected to this system or is it more. I shake my head. 'No time to dwell on that now things to think about later'. We pass so clothing shops and find a place that looks promising, i see the sign that says "Ironshod firearms". "Well that seems promising if it hasn't been picked clean". "Yeah from what i heard from some ghouls in tenpony Ironshod was a company that did business with the ministry of war time technology and supply some of the standard weapons besides spell based weapons those were handled by the ministry of arcane science and technology". "These ministries must have been important to the war". "From what i heard they were along with stable tec". Oh my great, great, great grandma's company. "Wait your a descendants of Applebloom". "No that was her friend, she was sweetiebelle". "Ohmygosh I'm a huge fan of her did you inherit her singing talent". "I don't know i think of myself as mediocre but my sister definitely we use to sing to each other when we couldn't sleep she sounded like a angel hehe before her cutie mark showed up i call her my little song bird, my dad took a liking to it so he started calling her that too". "Wow everything i heard about the courier was he was sadistic killing machine". "Yeah well that's why I'm surprised they let him stay but I'm still curious on who let him in but i can think about it later anyway you said this place was one of the main distributor of firearms during the war". "Yes that right". "Well this place if we're lucky could be a huge ammo cache". "That's true but wouldn't the ammo either have degraded or been destroyed during the belfire bombings". "Hmm true but maybe they have a sub level or a hidden vault just in case that or looters came". "That's true too". "What do you think Winona". She barks. "Hmmm also true this place could still have it's security system still working". "Wait you can really understand her". "Well yeah you can't she's speaking clear as day". "Huh"? "Wait a second". I look to Winona. "Are speaking to me telepathically". She barks and nods. "Well why aren't doing the same for tempest". She barks again. "Hmm true we still don't know if she's trustworthy but it'll be better for her to know so we can make sure nothing's lost in translation and i don't feel like playing translator between you two". She growl then barks then starts staring at tempest. "It done". Then tempest starts hearing her voice. "Yes happy now master". "I still don't like you calling me that I've told you call me chaos". "Yes and you've also told me to stop eating dead raiders and i haven't so we're still at an impasse". I sigh. "Fine". Then she looks at tempest again. "And you missy i have my eyes on you so don't try anything to harm my master". "He saved my life I'm not going just spit it back into his face". "Alright that's enough you two let get what ever we can from here and go". "Alright master". "Sure chaos". We go to what looks like an entrance tempest told me it's called a loading dock for trucks to transport items to there destination which i found interesting, when we got to the main manufacturing floor we're met with a crap ton of robots but deactivated and more curious some are destroyed. "Well at least i know pips been here". "How can you tell". "That mares curiosity always got the best of her sometimes and she probably came in here looking for supplies maybe, let's look around try to find anything useful, but me". I shock tempest by pulling a tool box out of thin air. "I'm gonna take some of these bad boys apart for parts". "What could you possibly need all those robot parts for". "Well lots of things, to create new stuff,repair old useful things, metal for ammunition". "Wait you know how to make bullets". "Nope but if i find a book on it then i can learn the basics". She looks at me with a deadpanned expression. "Your crazy". "So I've been told". We spread out and i start dismantling the bots to the best of my abilities and also my mechanic was getting levels which helped a lot but then i hear tempest say. "Um chaos we have a problem". "And wha-". Then i see some of the bots that i haven't took apart start moving. "Oh shit, you touched something didn't you"! "Maybe". "God dammit tempest". I start hurrying of to hide.' Winona hide looks like i need to deal with some malfunctioning equipment'. 'Are you sure master'. "Yep". But in the back of my mind. 'I'm bending that girl over my lap and spanking her if i get out of this alive i swear to the sisters'. Meanwhile with tempest a chill runs down her back. 'Why do i feel like I'm in trouble'. She thought to herself Back with me 'Alright on my mini map i see about twelve ene- wait what's that red skull icon comin-, oh shit'. I quickly run from cover as something crashes into it where i was, i quickly turn around and I'm met with a view of a hulking mass of machinery, a bucking sentry bot. "Why in the name of the sisters do that have a bucking sentry bot"! I shout and then use observe. Sentry bot LVL: 15 HP: 400(5000) Weaknesses: joits and brain dome. 'I guess pip manged to shut these things down before actually destroying it but that also means'. I run away and then it open fire. "That it's weapons still have ammo". as I'm running i get a thought and run through the security bots I'm being fired apon and as i run through them some take pot shots missing but nearly throwing me off balance but my plan worked it destroyed most and crippled others but also the exploding bots nick me with shrapnel taking off. Sixty health each, then i notice the last bot in front of me, i get an idea. 'Oh this better work'. I quickly un sheath my magi-axe and shout a command. Activate sword mode. [Acknowledged] The long handle shortens and a hand guard loops around my hand and the blade activates but it's not a short curved energy blade but a longer one. 'Alright here we go'. I pick up more speed and climb up the security bots bot with my feet and kicked off the bot before it's ripped apart by bullets luckily i was able to kick off hard enough that i land on the back of the sentry bot, which in turn start frantically trying to throw me off its back, but i hold on and see it's brain dome it really disturbed me that it was a actual brain but no time to dwell on that i lift my magi-axe turned sword in a downward angle and yell. "DIE"! And thrust with all my might and stab through the dome impaling the brain inside. Critical hit -600 You've defeated sentry bot 600 xp Loot: metal scrap×83, screws×94, medium health potions×2, Ammunition engineer skill book Transferring all to inventory Huh that's new. Then another pops up. Congratulations on defeating your first boss level enemy player, as you seen it listed the rewards you got from defeating said boss these will automatically transfer to inventory unlike drops from normal enemies the harder the boss the greater the rewards, good luck gamer "Well that explains that". I sheath my magi-axe, i really need to come up with a better name for this thing, anyway i start walking around putting bullets into the bodies of the bots for extra measure which turned into a good thing cause i leveled up once and was close to a second one, I'm now level eight and put all points in endurance to increase my health can't be too careful. 550 'Okay every five to endurance i get fifty health good to know now time to salvage what i can'. Time-skip 'Alright got everything i could and my mechanic skill is now sixteen'. Then winona and tempest approach with tempest looking rather embarrassed. 'You okay master'. "Yes luckily pip weakened that thing greatly before deactivating them all". I look at tempest. "S-sorry". "It's alright as long as it was an accident". "R-really you for-". But then i cut her off. "That being said winona can you you wait outside and don't come in no matter how much you hear screaming or crying". She tilts her head confused but rolls with it. 'Okay master'. She leaves and look at tempest with a smile but she could feel a dark meaning behind it and starts backing away and i slowly approach. "C-chaos what are you doing". "Oh nothing". I say as i get closer. "H-hey this isn't f-funny s-stay back". "I just want a simple chat". I say as she finally back into a wall and i loom over her. "Eeeeek"! She screams. Time-skip After thirty minutes me and tempest come out, with tempest with slight tears welled up in her eyes and rubbing her flank and we see winona laying down. "Come on girl time to go". She gets up and stretches and yawns. 'All done master'. "Yep let head out you and Tempest will be a head of me while i inspect some of the items". 'Ok master… come on werid mare'. She says as she walks "Hey what's that supposed to mean". She say following. I follow behind them. 'So i wonder umm bring up skill and spell books'. Then a window pops up. Spells/skill books Basic magic warp magic Enhancement magic Ammunition engineer Would you like to learn Y/N I press Y and in a slight brust of light all the books disapper and are absorb into me. Shit that hurts. Then windows pop up. Basic magic Tier 1: Telekinesis Transmogrification Magic shield As the tier rank raises more spells will be unlocked Warp magic tier 1 Warp magic is a special type of magic that uses recycled magic from the chaos relem to full unlock this you must have a warp stone Enchantment magic tier 1 This magic will allow you echant weapons or accessories for buffs and status effects, requires enchantment book Ammunition engineer LVL: 1 EXP:0.00 The art of creating bullets you can create bullets that have status effects and standard ammunition, requires blueprints of the ammo and materials 'Well great i can't use two of these, well i guess technically one and half i can still use warp magic it's just less focused without a warp stone whatever the buck that is and i don't even know where that would be, and where in the equestrian wastelands will i find a enchantment book nevertheless one intact*i internally sigh* so troublesome well just using the spells should rank up the tiers problem is unlike my skills i can't see a experience bar, but it'll notify me of a rank up'. Then my pip-buck rings out, i quickly bring it up to me and it shows me 6 dots but they're different they're green i'm going to assume that means friendlies i catch up to winona and tempest and show them and we start heading in that direction and after a few we stubble on what caravan or that's what tempest told me they're called from my outside view it looks like there are two kids, three adults, and two teenagers, we approach they see us and at first they thought us raiders but we convinced them we weren't and we were looking for someone and were wondering where the nearest town was and they said it was new Appaloosa so I suggested that we travel together for extra protection. They graciously accept, we head off and didn't encounter much except some bloatflies no more then ten at most which I wish there was one more cause my XP bar was at 99.99% it's like it was mocking me damn it *I sigh internally* well let's hope nothing too eventful happens. We go over a bridge and on words the landscape turns desert like. "So strange why would a town be way out here with no food or water". The the father speaks. "Well ever since the pegasi closed the skies to protect their remaining cities from the mega spells and bailfire bombs but from what I heard from some ghouls that were around during the war some still got hit by those lucky striped bastards". "So nobody's controlling the weather so it running of nature alone". "Yep just like that forest near ponyville I believe so of the post war ghouls called it the everfree forest before and during the war no pegasi could control the forests weather not to mention the place was over run with dangerous beasts". "Damn but how are they keeping the cloud cover it would take hundreds no thousands of pegasi working around the clock to keep it up". The father looks up to the sky and points. "There's your answer kid". I look and see a giant floating tower. "What in Tartarus". "The S. P. P towers one of many all over equestria". "Shit and if I'm guessing right the only hub that controls all of them is in the clouds with them". "Smart kid and a correct guess no one except a Pegasus would know where that would be". "Figures but damn it must be a pain for anyone to grow crops especially with the irradiated soil". "Yep it's hard out here but you lot already know that much". "Yeah but still". Before I could continue my detection skill and and pip-buck go off. "We got company people". I quickly check my pip-buck and it looks like five incomings but their yellow so I'm guessing neutrals but one wrong move and we could have a battle on our hands, I quickly unholstered pathbringer. "Sir you keep your family safe inside the cart, tempest, Winona hang back with the civilians, I'll meet them see what they want". 'Yes master'. "Are you sure you don't need back up". "Eh fifty-fifty". I head to meet our "guests" while readying my pip-buck's grappling hook. I keep walking and found five individuals which makes me tense cause my pip-buck said there was six. Good day gents now what's your business here and I'd please ask for your sixth companion to come out cause to don't appreciate being under to threat of a unknown gun pointed at me. "Sorry but we need to keep our guard up while not keeping it up I'm sure you understand". The leader of the group says. "I can respect that this is my second day out here, but I understand". They give me a look of slight surprise before the leader spoke again. "You wouldn't be a stable pony would you". *slight surprise*"and if I am". "Well a couple days ago we took in a stable pony she had a run in with our towns gun for hire and got pretty". I don't let him finish and aim path at his skull and the rest point their weapons at me. "Is she OK answer quick and I'll give you an estimate of how pissed I am". "She fine our towns doc fixed her up". *sigh*"Damn that girl always giving me a fright". I stop aiming at him. "Sorry two ponies minus myself left the stable in the past few days so I'm worried about one I know the other is tough as nails but I wanted to check on her". "Understandable I care about my friends too, we can take you to her". "Thanks but give me a sec". I let out a whistle and Winona, tempest and the caravan move up to us. "Well since you've shown us the courtesy". He looks up to the sky. "Hey calamity get down here they're friends". I start hearing flapping and look to the sky and am surprised to see a Pegasus. "Well I'll be dammed. Then tempest chimed in". "Well I'd heard some pegasi were down here". "Really"? "Yeah, from what I'd heard from travelers that came to tenpony and had the chance to talk to them some are exiled for speaking up against the society they made up there like saying they should help the surface, and those who envy rainbow dash the element of loyalty and head mare of the Ministry of Awesomeness". I give her a deadpanned look. "Ministry of Awesomeness". "Hey don't ask me… anyway and those exiles are labeled as dashites and give a brand where their cutie mark is or would be and it's supposedly rainbow dash's cutie mark that is the brand mark, they're forced down to the surface and threatened with death if they return and it's issued by the enclave". "Enclave"? "Didn't that slaver I blew their brains out say my dad had some run in's with them". "Yep your pops was loved by many of the peace loving folks around the wastes but hated but the non peaceful folks". "Well that's understandable but still I'm guessing he did some pretty messed up stuff to piss them off". "Eh I bet they deserved it those guys are selfintitles assholes". "Well not all of us". We hear a southern voice beside us, we look and see the Pegasus in question, he stands a little shorter then me but pretty up there, with a white under shirt and a brown trench coat and slightly ripped up pants and finally a cowboy hat and a sniper slung on his back, Then tempest says. "Wait were you part of the enclave". "Well not me but my family is another story". "Well shit". "Yep anyway follow us and thanks for taking up my job while gone makin sure that little lady didn't die due to the misunderstanding". "Why the hell did you shoot anyway". Trying not to deck this stallion. "She was wearing raider gear and my motto is the only good raider is a dead one that goes the same for slavers too". "And don't blame me if I deck you later". "And why's that". "She's a dear friend so if it happens again you better be ready". "You can try kid". Then tempest say. "Alright calm down you two let's head out". We glare at each other but give a "okay" and head out. 'Master do you wish me to rip this brats throat out'. "No not yet". "Are you talking to that dog". "What's it to you". He just walks farther ahead and tempest looks at me. "Why are you acting so hostile to him". "I don't know just something I don't like about him". "Just behave we need a place to rest". *I sigh* "alright I'll try". "Good we don't need enemies with friendly settlements". "I get it okay". "Good". "You're really bossy". "Oh shut up". We continue on and it seemed to take one in a half or two hours of walking which did up my endurance by ten so I got a hundred HP, so we make it and the family thanks us for the protection and part way, we follow calamity to the medical house where pip is, we enter and met with a earth pony mare in a nurses outfit, which not gonna lie super hot, and making a mental note to get the girls to wear those outfits next time we make love but I shake out of my perverse thoughts when she says. "Oh calamity your back". "Yep, how's our patient". "Oh she just woke up not to long ago". "That's good to hear". "So who are your friends". She says and gives me a slight look over then winks at me. I just chuckle nervously while tempest glares. "So what's your name miss". "Call me Candi handsome". "Nice name I'm Chaos Crimson". Then tempest gets in front of me. "Tempest shadow". Then Winona introduces herself but it comes out as barks to them, I already told her not talk mentality except to me or tempest just to be safe. I walk up to pip. She sees me and her eyes go widen. "Chaos". "Hey pippy". She groans. "You know I hate that nickname". "You lost all rights to bitch about me using that nickname after running off and apparently getting shot up by raiders, security bots, and a Pegasus". She look at you. "Um how did you know about the robots". I point at tempest. "She accidentally reactivated them from the same terminal you deactivated them from but quick question, WHY IN TARUTRUS DIDN'T BREAK THE DANE THINGS"! I shout while grabbing her ear. "Ow ow ow stop it I'm sorry". "Sorry doesn't help the shrapnel in my flank". We go back and fourth with this argument while our audience watched. "Um should we stop them". Candi asks. "Um not a good idea". "Why's that". Calamity asks. "He gets scary when mad". "Wait are you with him against your will". "What no he saved me and promised me to help me back to tenpony". "Well damn your far out there, but do you believe him". She looks at me and her heart starts beating faster. "With my life". "Your one crazy mare but hey I ain't one ta judge." They walk away from us cause it doesn't look like it's gonna end anytime soon. //-------------------------------------------------------// Suiting up //-------------------------------------------------------// Suiting up After a good while of arguing me and pip find Tempest, Calamity, Winona at the bar when they see us only one thing they said. "What the hell happened to you two. " Why did they say that, well we both have bruises and scratches over each other and both have black eyes. "Jeez kid Candi just fixed ya up. " "Well blame this stubburn mule. " "Oh that's rich coming from you pippy. " She growl. "Stop calling me that. " "Never. " "Alright, alright calm down you two, you sound like an old married couple." Then we both yell at him. "We do not! " He laughs." Even says the same things when's the honeymoon. " "Shut up!" We yell again and then sit on opposite sides of calamity. "Man too easy. " "Keep it up cowboy you'll be eating that hat. " "Sure. " Then the bar keep comes up to us. "What'll you be having. " "Apple cider if you got it if not surprise me. "Tempest says she'll have the same, he says that'll be fifty caps, I reach into my pocket but in fact I was reaching into my inventory and pull out the caps and put them on the counter and slide them to him and he checks them. "Dude they're bottle caps not bits in the days of old. " "Still have to check son." "Whatever just please get our drinks it's be a long couple days for me and tempest. " He shrugs and takes em then the second bar keep is tuning the radio and finds what's he's looking for. "Hey everypony DJ-pon3 is on. " Everyone shuts up and listen in. "Hey everypony this is DJ-Pon3 coming to live with some news, looks like those raiders down in ponyville were taken out by a stable pony saving a few ponies along the way, then a few days later another pony showed up guns ablazing killing more raiders in harsher ways I haven't seen in years you know what that means ponies our courrier is back so I have a special thank you to this stable pony and a welcome back to the wastelands greatest hero let's welcome and welcome back them with a sweetiebelle classic. "Music starts playing and I recognize it as one of the songs me and sis sang to each other so we'd get to sleep faster. "I'm coming little song bird, I may not be taking you back but I need to make sure you didn't get yourself killed. " But then the music cuts off and another stallions voice comes on as I recgonize as red-eye from him taking over some sprite-bots. "Not this asshole. " "Know him kid. " "Not officially got some info out of a raider first day out go a feel for all the big players out here but some of his buddies had me pin in ponyville had to kill them. " "Wait ponyville you weren't the fella that killed those raiders down there." "Yep also rescued tempest there now I'm helping her get back home. " "Fehw I thought the courier was back they said he was a mad pony." "Oi watch your words. " "Oh you one of his fans. " "You could say that." "Well I'm just saying what a lot of ponies think." I pull out path and point it between his eyes, and give a deadly glare. "Watch what you say about me and my sisters father you feathered mule. " Everyone except tempest look at me with pure shock and fear. "Wait your the Courier kid." Calamity says. "One of them, yes." "Holy shit the most deadly pony in the wasteland settled down." "Oh believe me with how my mom is now I think my dad could have done better." Then pip chimes in. "So mister Valent shield was originally from out here. " "Apparently so. " "Then who let him in and he was the head of security. " "Oh believe me pip my moms going to be answering a shit ton of questions after I'm done checking on my sis. " "Checking on, don't you mean finding and rescuing. " I lower my gun and sigh looking at pip sadly. "No pip I'm so sorry you got caught up in this. " She looks at me as soon as she realises." Y-you knew. " "It was supposed to be a simple thing she didn't want to be pressured and caged by our mother before my sister got her cutie mark you know what she wanted to be. "She doesn't say anything but shakes her head. "A doctor she wanted to help other ponies to be a healer, she even helped out in the medical wing, but as soon as her cutie mark appeared she was forced to give it up, I didn't know-." I was cut off by her slapping me hard and walking out, my mane covering my eyes. -35 "Heh thought that might happen. " "Kid you alright." Calamity asks. "Yeah I'll be fine." Then my attention is caught but a hand on my shoulder, I look and see tempest with a sad smile and feel Winona nuzzle against my leg. "Heh thanks you two. " "No problem you helped me least I can do is return the favor, I'll go talk to her see if I can't help. " "Be my guest that mare is stubborn." "She remainds me of super stubborn stallion. "She says before walking off to find pip. "Yeah who-, hey." The last thing I hear from her is a giggle. "Damn it I walk in to that one. " "You sure did. " "Zip it cowboy. "Then bartender finally brings me and tempest's cider. "Thanks." "No problem kid. " I pop off the top of my cider and start drinking. Then a pop up shows. 'Oh come the buck on.' I thought as I saw the skill. Poison resistance LVL: 1 EXP: 00.26 Nullifies most poisonous materials and substances 'I can't even get drunk properly great. 'I thought annoyed and just kept drinking after I finished I decided to take a walk around the town and fined it to be a seemingly normal town but something bothered me.' How are they getting their supplies I didn't see a town on way and well I might check my map. 'I bring up my pip-buck. 'Hmm bring up territory map and run a scan see if their are town close by and anything else like potential material spots. ' [Acknowledged] Then the holographic map pulls up I don't notice the pony on lookers and it's a complete map of the area. 'Well not suprising dad would have needed to come though here to get to stable 2, Hmm there are some close by and what is that icon.' It looks like mask of some kind and it looks like it's in one of the material patches. 'Hmm maybe I show check it out maybe give pip sometime to cool off.' Winona nuzzles my leg. "Hehe I know you want to come with, I could use the company anyway." We head to the gate as I memorize the way their, we make it their and guard posted asks. "What's your bussiness here." "Going outside." "Why is that. " "Winona here wants to stretch her legs. " The guard looks at the the large canine who plays along with my lie by over excitingly jumping around. "Alright but make sure you get back before dark we lock up the gates then. " "Roger that boss. " They open up and we head out and follow the direction I memorized from the map it was pretty far out and I've been keeping an eye on my detection skill and motion tracker on my pip-buck when we get there it looked like a junkyard, me and Winona walk up to the entrance but what happens next we didn't expect turrets pop out of the ground and aim at me. Oh buck me. But then something else pops out that looks weird but then I hear a robotic voice ring out. Verify identity or be fire upon "How do I do that." Then it says again. Place pip-buck through scanner Warning: if pip-buck doesn't match identification codes you have thirty seconds to flee 'Wonderful well here goes something. "I put my pip-buck arm through the scanner, it took three minutes and the robotic voice rang out again. Identification confirmed, welcome courier chaos to courier outpost 1745 facility last used 20yrs: 11mth: 345days: 6hours: 45mins: 50sec timer reset will begin again once user leaves "Holy shit what in Tartarus. "Then I start hearing gears turning and mechanisms churning then the door opens, me and Winona walk in and what I see is amazing. I could see many machines and some mechanisms everywhere the outside was some kind of Illinois cause once we enter it was a large structure then me and Winona start hearing gears turning again then I see what looks like projecters pop out of the walls then turn on and once the beams of light converge a holographic image of a earth pony stallion is shown but I know this stallion. "Dad. "Then the holographic image starts to speak. "Welcome new appointed Courier if you are watching this pre-recorded message then I'm dead or I'm dead and you've not recived the training outfit, well to start this off if you haven't guessed it yet you and I aren't the first to wear the monicor of the courier there have been plenty of us over the centuries dating back to the earliest days of the wasteland we've been everywhere except the zebralands themselves but I digress welcome to the latest of our ranks even though your probably the last but I want to say something first. His face turns to one of saddness. If this is one of my children, I'm so sorry I mixed you in this you should have never had to put on that pip-buck and I hope your able to save as many ponies as you can and please stay safe out there their are many danger out in the wasteland but luckily our forefathers of past couriers were paranoid sons of bitches and set up bases and safe houses all over the place not all were discovered by me or my predecessor so look for the couriors mark the picture you mostly saw on the pip-buck, they're hidden very well so keep an eye our this is a base equipped for defense or for weapons, food, matrials, and spells if you were born a unicorn, alright that's all the info I'm allow to tell hell that's all the info my old man gave me when I started my training with him, this base is close to a stable as well but I'd was getting strange readings when I passed it so check it out if you can… this base is well equip to upgrade and modify any weapons or armor you have but I don't think you'll need them. " Then I hear some shifting and look a compartment raises from the ground showing a full set of armor(A/N: the ncr ranger set) and I whisle impressed. "This armor has been worn by every courior thus far it has enchantments and modifications that put a lot to shame it's yours now take care of it, and one more thing this place has two set of modifications one for your courior's pip-buck the device you hold is the prototype of stable-tec they left out all the things it could do cause different scientist were working on the mods for it courior's from the start to me been finding these things in either special stable-tec caches in the scientists home or what was left of them or stable-tec facilities such as stables or branch offices and the other mods is something the couriers have been searching for a century now it's a zebra secret project that could have been super dangerous if the ponies didn't take the prototype during the war the weapons name was… the magi-axe or magi multi weapon. " "No way. " "This dangerous piece of weaponry would have changed the tide of the war if they had finished it but seeing that there are modifications means that our scientists over at the minastry of arcane science either keep working on it either with or behind minister twilight, this thing was made to shift into weapons to counter each of the pony races, its blade could cut through magic, it come hit Pegasus troops out of the air from yards away, some of the weapons increased the users speed or strength to overpower a earth pony but this is stuff we only know from documents we found at zebra secret bases in equestria none of us know if it's true we found a record on a sighting of it in one of the major battles and it was weilded by big Macintosh but it isn't concrete so if you find it you can take the mods but be careful we have no idea if the zebras that survived the war are still looking for their prize achievement, that's all the info I have for you good luck out their courior. " Then the projection cut off and two more secret compartments open up, I just stand there Winona starts to worry. "Master are you OK. " Tears go down my face." Selfless bastard always thinking of others. " I wipe my eyes. "I'll make you proud dad. "But then the projection cuts back on. "Oh almost forgot take care of pinkie for us she's been a courior project for a long time and she's not seen the outside world before but we've told her about how it's like post, pre, and after the war and if you are my kid then you'll be quite the mare magnet good luck." He finishes with a cheeky grin. "Pinkie? Who's-. "Then my motion tracker and detection skill went off to movement behind me, I quickly turn around just to be tackled by a speedy pink object. "Offf!" The object takes me a few inches sliding on the floor, but I hear two different voices one that sound excited and energetic and the one that sounds concerned. "MASTER!/Master!" With the wind knocked out of me I wait a little for my mind to focus on what just hit but I start hearing arguing. "Get off master you pink hussy. " "No, I finally get to meet master after all this time I will not leave him. " Then I start feeling a grip around me tighten but felt oddly soft. "I don't care I'm all master needs, now back off. " "No master's mine. " The two who are arguing who I can only assume is Winona and this pinkie character who full body tackled me, I finally focus back into everything just to see the two growling at each other… I was taking in this pinkies features she seems like a mix between a bipedal wolf or dog and robotic parts and her fur is pink which was strange by no by much, but then after I finished looking I felt this pinkie creature grab my head and bury it into her bust which was really soft but that's besides the point cause I'm being suffocated by them and I start struggling to get free then she speaks again. "You could never do this for master so why don't you fuck off. " "No master is my master I won't let some bitch take him." Then Winona pounces pinkie knock her off and they roll around scratching and biting each other, it take me a sec to get my bearings before I see them trying to rip each other limb from limb then I louder then I expected. Enough! They hear this and quickly stop before sitting on their butts and says. "Yes master, sorry master. "I sigh and look at pinkie. "Alright who or what are you. " "I am masters personal assistant made by the couriers and finish by courier Valiant shield and instructed to remain here till next courier entered this facility code name haven and I am to travel and assistant the courier in anything he may from fighting, gathering, to. Her fur around her cheeks glow, uh oh. "To letting him use my body in any fashion he sees fit." She goes back to serious mode. "My name is Pinkamena Dina pie or that's the name I remember when I first woke up from being alseep." 'Why does that sound familiar.' "Well my dad told you that your to follow the next courior." "That's right master. " "Well it can't be help welcome to the gang. " "But master how can we trust this pinkie thing. " "Hey don't be like that we were the same about tempest and she hasn't stab us in the back yet let's give her a chance." I finish then pet Winona's head which she appreciated. Through her happy growls. "Fine master but it doesn't mean I have to like it." "And that's why I count on you to have my back Winona." "Fine but if she attacks I don't want any whining when I rub it in your face that I was right. " "Fair. " 'Good. ' I look at pinkie. "Can you show us where the weapons are. " "Will do master. She skips away and we follow" We follow and the weapons are impressive from magic firearms from regular. "Oh… yeah. " I start stocking up I only grab four cases of full boxes of ammunition and grab weapons for said ammo, Then I go to the second hidden rack that popped up during dad speech I look at all the modifications for both pip-buck and Magi-axe. [A/N: the ones marked as green are the ones he has access to] Magi-axe modification🔻 Magi-knuckle (LVL: 8) Magi-bow (LVL: 10) Magi-scythe (LVL: 26) Magi-spear (LVL: 26) Magi-rapier (LVL: 30) Magi-greatsword (LVL: 40) Pip-buck modification🔻 Healing potion injector (LVL: 15) Magic potion injector (LVL: 15) Comm system (LVL: 20) Chem injector (LVL: 26) Creature encyclopedia(LVL: 40) Access to any stable-tec system (LVL: 79) "Holy shit these numbers are nuts but they sound use full and from observing them my skill leveled up five times. "I was about to collect them but the panel on my pip-buck and my magi-axe absorbs them. "Well that's helpful. "I then go over to the secret compartment that opened up showing the armor and use observe again. North cantorlot ranger armor (enchanted and modified) full set (enchantments and modifications will be revealed at level cap of armor pieces, currently hidden) "Must be some powerful ones if I can see the info and observe leveled up another six time I'm guessing how much it progresses is how powerful or complex the object is. "Once I touch it the armor I'm guessing my power automatically equipped it, I touch around the helmet then I feel something that feels like a button and click and the helmet retracts. "Oh that's cool. "Then I look at pinkie. Can you show me where they keep the magic books. "Huh but why master my scans say your a earth pony. " "Trust me. " "Alright master, then follow me. " Me and Winona follow and are lead into a library and it was massive seriously these courier weren't messing around when making their bases. "Welcome to the magic achieve this is where most couriers stored spell book and the like from their Journeys this is quiet small if my records are up to date master. " "Thanks pinkie. "I go off to find some spells I'll need not noticing pinkie giving Winona a victorious smirk. After a while I figure out that they are alphabetical order so I first go to the h section and find a heal spell. Would you like to learn this spell [Y/N] I was about to press y but I remember what happened when I learned those spells earlier today they disappeared I can't do that these might be the last copies in existance I wish I could copy them then a pop up shows up. Reconfiguring in progess Success Would you like to copy this spell [Y/N] I press y and the book glowed and magic silhouette of the book breaks off from the book, I touch it and its absorbed into me then a pop up shows. Healing spell (Tier 1) EXP: 00.00 Can heal minor wounds and injuries "Nice. "I put it back and start copying some attack spells and defense spells, but then I feel something compelling me to go to the center of the achieve, I keep going until I come upon a necklace with a green gem and my observe automatically goes off. Key Item found Warp stone necklace Durablity: indestructible (unless hit with strong magical energy) "Huh so this is a warp stone. "I pick it up and put it on, then what feels like a strong magical pulse shots through my body and I drop to one knee and start panting. "Buck what was that. "Then a pop up shows. User is now connected to chaotic Realm can now use recycled magic without need use of own MP but highly advised to keep magic stable the stronger the spell the more magic used to keep stable (A/N: I didn't come up with concept of warp magic that honor goes to the brony/youtuber the editor I'm just adding the extra bits) "Oh that sounds as dangerous as it sounds." Then I hear a male voice in my head. "Oh well this is interesting another pony that can access the chaotic realm." "And now I'm hearing voices well muffins not even a week and I'm going crazy." "Oh believe me your quite sane well mostly I mean only a crazy person would access the chaotic realm without prior knowledge but who am I to judge. " "And who are you. " "Aww has so many years past that knows me anymore then let me reintroduce myself I am the chaotic being, the king of mischief, the one, the only, the undeniably handsome, lord of chaos discord." Then I start hearing fanfare and fireworks going off in my head. "Wait discord, as in the discord. " "Oh you've heard of me. " "Heard of you I'm a fan. " "A fan oh my never thought I'd hear that from a pony." "Well yeah before you caused terror among my kind before the war but most seemed like harmless prank and not gonna lie would've liked to try some of those cotton candy clouds your famous for. " "Well my boy if we meet in person I'll try to live up to the hype. " "That would be nice this world could some fun now a days. " "Ugh tell me about it it's dreadfully dull now a days it's just the same chaos day after day it so boring. " "Well nice talking to you. " "Same. " Then I feel the slight presents leave. "Well meeting him was fun. " out one of the windows I see it getting dark. "Look like we're staying the night." I go to find pinkie and Winona //-------------------------------------------------------// Stable 22 //-------------------------------------------------------// Stable 22 I yawn and start waking up but I feel two weights on me, I open my eyes and it's pinkie and Winona. I sigh. "Of course. "I start shaking them to get them up Winona starts to wake but pinkie buries her muzzle into my neck more. "Five more minutes master your so warm. " No can do we need to head out. "Aww okay. " We get up and requip my courier armor, the girls get ready and we head out back to new Appaloosa, I also equip one of my new weapons, from the looks of it, it's a zebra assault rifle and what I read in one of the books I was looking through was that some zebra weapons were heavily enchanted when fired the bullets had side effects, ponies can say whatever they want about zebras they knew their weapons and I found an enchantment book too and put it in my inventory I wish I could just copy it but the description of my enchanting magic I need the book same with my warp stone. But then the voice of discord speaks again. 'You know you don't really need that little rock. ' 'Maybe so but with the stone I have a more focused connection to the chaotic realm, and don't think I don't know you just want to see what chaotic mishaps happen when I don't have the stone. 'He chuckles. 'Guilty as charged kid but I'm interested in what this little adventure of yours leads to I'm able to see many futures but I can't see yours and trust me I tried to multiple times while you were alseep. ' 'Good. ' 'Good? ' 'Nothing ruins an adventure more then spoilers don't you think. 'And he laughs. 'Ohooho I knew I'd like you kid well catch you later. ' 'Later discord. ' 'Later. ' Man still weird having the literal embodiment of chaos in my head but he does make for good conversation, I look and see Winona and pinkie who was in what looks like high grade leather combat armor with a bit of armor plating. "Everyone ready. " "Yes master. "They both. I mentally sigh. 'Seriously what's with them calling me master. 'I clear my throat. "Alright then time to move out. " I get a "right" from both of them, we exit and start heading in the direction of new Appaloosa, it takes an hour or so but we make it there and walk up to the gate and the guardsmen on the wall point their weapons at me. "Stat- courier is that you. "The guardsman asks recognizing the armor from the stories he heard about when he was a colt. I press the button on the side of my helmet and it retracts. "Hey boys miss me. " "Wait aren't you the kid that went out last night your companions have been wondering where you were. " "Ah crap right should have told Tempest I was heading out crap, um can I head in now. " The guardsmen look at you then see pinkie who just waves. "Um what about that thing. " "Firstly that it is a she and secondly she's with me so can we come in. " They look at each other the start opening the gate. "Thanks gentes. "We head inside for me to fine tempest to show I'm ok and I didn't go back on my promise, I walk through the town, I look around and then see a familiar magical aura wrapped around train car in the distance I hurry over, when I get there I see pip is practicing her telekinesis which gives me an idea, I see all these other items all over, I start to focus my magic and the warp stone magic necklace starts glowing and the items start lifting up then a notification pops up. Due to possessing a warp stone your MP cost is half and will still level up and note: spells now have levels to indicate when spell will upgrade to next tier 'Well that's super helpful. ' I keep an eye on my MP gauge and was true my MP was only going down by twenty-five then fifty and I'm guessing it's because I'm lifting multiple objects but it's leveled up five times which is good, but then I finally notice the on looker while pinkie and Winona just look at me with awe, everyone else looks at me in shock a disbelief. "Um sup. "I say awkwardly. Pip shakes out of it first. "Chaos how did you do that. " "Oh it was this little gem apparently dad left it for me when he passed I kind of forgot about it in my pocket after leaving the stable and remembered it on my walk on the outside yesterday. "I lied and she seemed to believe it and a pop up shows. Lying LVL: 1 EXP: 01.56 Your skill in deception, to deceive another could be a deciding factor in some encounters throughout the wasteland Then another pops up. For gaining the lying skill a perk has been unlocked Silver tongue [1/5] Your tongue is as sharp as a serpent, the XP for any and all deception skills is doubled 'Well I'll be. ' I clear my throat. "Well pip where's." But I'm cut off when I get tackled by tempest, I look down and she has tears in her eyes. "Tempest what's wrong. "I say in a concerned tone. "You should know what's wrong you idiot I thought you left me here and went back on your promise. " "That's the one thing you should know about me, I never break my promises. " "It's true that's kinda what's so annoying about him. "Pip chimes in. "Aww thanks pippy. " "I hate you so much for that nickname. " "Love you too. " She just groans and she looks over and finally notices pinkie. "Um who's that chaos. " "Oh I met her on my walk yesterday she gave me shelter last night. " "Hi I'm pinkie nice to meet you. " "Um yeah same. " "So anything interesting happen yesterday while I was gone. " "Well the mayor wants to give me to do a job. " "Oh what's the job. " "Apparently theirs strange creatures appearing attacking the walls and attacking some of the patrols no serious injuries but they want us to check it out where they believe they're coming from. "Pip says and pinkie chimes in. "Oh do you mean stable 24." "We both look at her and I ask. Stable 24?" "Yes master, that's what it's designation was. " "Master? Tempest and pip ask." "*sigh* Please don't ask, anyway continue pinkie. " "Okie doki master, anyway stable 24 is where most of the citizens of Appaloosa fled to before the balefire bombs fell, any other information was sadly corrupted including details on the layout, I'm sorry I can't be any more help master. " She says with a sad expression with her ears flopping down, but I get up and pet her head and she perks up at that. "It's alright pinkie this much info is enough, we can get any other info from one of their terminals alright. "She looks up with a happy expression with her tail wagging. "So are we suppose to take um out or what." I ask pip. "If it is a stable and they forgot to mention then we can just close the door but I'm curious what secrets this stable holds. " "You and me both pip. " We head over to the mayors office to tell him that we'll take the job; we make it over and see that the sheriff is standing in front of it, he catches a glimpse of us but looks more in my direction and gives whistle. "Well ill be I thought it was a load of horse shit when Djpon3 said you were back, well I'm glad I was about to send this little lady in to fight some vermits but since your heI-. "But I cut him off. "Well hold on mayor you've already offered this young mare the job I ain't hear to swipe somepony trying to earn a honest days pay, now if I was like that in the past I ain't no more what I'm here for was supplies but this mare ask for help, I said I do it for a price and we already agreed on the split so I'm just along for the ride. "Then a pop up shows. Lie successful; bonus XP added due to the length of the lie and extra due to the silver tongue perk Lying LVL up x 9 I smirk under my helmet and the mayor coughs into his hand. "W-well then if that's the case then you can ask her on the details on the job have a good day." He then starts to head back in to the makeshift sheriff's office. "What a weenie." Tempest holds a chuckle. So pip explained the job to me, tempest, pinkie, and Winona. I whistle. "Damn, well sounds like a good time to me what about you guys." " I'm not letting you go, you definitely owe me." Tempest says with a glare towards me. " Where you go I go master." " I still don't trust these two, the pink mutt even less." " You want to go bitch." " Anytime mutt." "Alright that's enough you two we are traveling companies now, so chill." Fine/Fine! They yell turning from each other. *Mentally sighs*'Yes this is definitely my life now.' I look towards pip."So when do you want to head out. " Probably soon before night hits or whatever counts as night since the whole cloud cover. " "True". Then we hear a voice coming from behind. "Now hold your horses now". We look and see it's Calamity . "Sup cowboy.” "Well I'll be as I live and breath the courier.“ “Yep now whose horses do we need to hold.” "Yours, I know you're some sort of badass ". "Damn straight ". "But your companion their barely knows much about the outside world except the things she's read in derpy's book". "Derpy why does that name sound so familiar ". Then pinkie says. "Derpy hooves aka Ditzy doo ex mail mare of ponyville now ghoul and author of the wasteland survival guide, birthday October twenty fifth ". "Thanks pinkie but what's up with the last bit". "Not sure master I just have that in my database weird". "No problem pinkie but helpful none the less, now your right but we plan on being careful ". "Well do you even know where it is". "Yes pinkie here has the way in her database, just not the layout so that's the only thing we're in the dark about". "Well I reckon you could use a fresh par of eyes". "Hmm you could be right it would help I planned on leaving Winona". 'What, but master.' 'Don't think of it as a punishment I'm not sure what we'll find down there and just in case any of these creatures get past us I'm relying on you to protect the town can you do that.' 'Yes master.' I look at Calamity. "Then suit up pack only what you need". "Copy that". He flies off. Pip asks."I-is it really alright to bring him along". I put my hand on her shoulder."I know your worries but to his credit you were wearing bloody raider armor". She pouts. "That still doesn't make up for the bullet holes in my flank". “Didn't say it does but be more careful in you approaches next time, what if it was the caravan that shot you would you have blamed them.” “Well no.” “And there you go, out here its always a struggle to survive so try not to hold it against him too much and you can also take this as a lesson to always be alert cause there aren't just Pegsai that can fly at least it wasn't a griffen or celestia and lunas sake a dragon no telling how the aftermath of the war affected them especially the mega spells and balefire bombs so they're just as much apart of this crazy world order as well.” “Heh your a smart one aren't yeah, yeah on my travels I've run into the occasional griffen but no dragons i thought they either went extinct or stayed in the dragonlands or i believe that's what the ghoul ponies called it when i was hearing it from an old ghoul.” Calamity said returning from collecting his gear. “Yeah even if they where fairy tales i read my sister they referenced the place being called the dragonlands.” “We'll need to go that stable and either kill those creatures or seal it up but knowing me and pip we will most likely explore the place first cause like her I'm curious on how another stable operated then ours.” We get ourselves ready and me, pinkie, tempest, pip, and calamity go to the gate. “Alright let's head out. I give a thumb up to the gate ponies, they nod and open the doors and we head out.” “Pinkie which way.” “According to the beceon that all stables have it's do northwest of New Applelosa.” “Roger let's move everypony.” We start heading in that direction but I hold one more conversation with Winona. 'Keep the town safe but be careful alright.' 'You too master, hey pink mutt.' 'I have a name you know.' 'Whatever, just make sure master comes back in one piece even though I don't like you we both want master to be safe.' 'Heh I will.' In my inner mind. 'Well at least they've found a common ground.' Then I hear a familiar voice. 'Aww but they're fighting was getting good.' I rool my eyes. 'Hey discord nice to hear from you.' 'Likewise kid and I see whatever power you have explained warp magic.' 'To an extent yeah, it said it can connect to the Chaotic releam where all magic is recycled there.' 'It's not wrong but what I'm also sensing is that when you figure it out how you'll be able to pull powerful spells from the Chaotic sea of the Chaotic Realm that were once weilded by powerful unicorns from back in my day or hell either further then when I first appeared in equestria.' ' That would be helpful if I could I like to obtain a spell from a unicorn I believe his name was shining armor, when I was in that Couriers outpost and found post-war history book and found out he had a powerful shield magic that could cover all of cantrlot where ever the hell that is.' 'Ah yeah sparkle butts brother.' 'Sparkle butt?' Wait, do you mean twilight sparkle the minister of arcane science.' 'The very same.' 'Huh the more you know i guess, but yeah.' 'Hmm, that would do you some good to have good defensive magic.' 'Yeah cause I don't know what's all out here and with this weird power I obtained once I got my cutie mark will make it harder.' 'Good thinking kid.' 'Well I'm not alone can't think just about myself, I could just cut thru magic with my magi-axe or avoided bullets as soon as I get fast enough but my companions can't so need to look after them too.' 'Now me personally back in my younger centuries I'd gag and berate you about caring for your friends and family but due to the lack of friendship between the zebra lands and equestria resulted in this soooo I guess friendship and harmony had some merits.' 'Wow, younger centuries don't cut yourself short your probably still as spriy as every.' 'Ohohoh flattery will get you everywhere with me my little pony.' I chuckle. 'Talk you you later discord.' 'Catch you later kid.' Once I finished my conversation with discord, I hear a small shriek and something latch onto my left arm, I look and it's pip. “Huh pip are you alright.” Concerned for my first friend/crush. “So loud, I got scared for a second.” I was confused for a second until I hear another crash from the sky and look, the clouds are darker now and looking stromy. “What never 'eard thunder and lightning before.” “Stable ponies remember, I mean I've heard of it and a few times I heard it whenever I was close to the Stable 2 entrance but I just thought the outside was a fiery wasteland by now.” “Ah right keep forgettin, but that just means it's close to rainin and sometimes the down pours last a few hours, to days.” “Well that just means we need to get to our destination a bit faster how far pinkie.” “Not to far master just a few clicks ahead.” “Roger that, you heard her people let's move less you want a wet coat of fur.” But all of a sudden I start to sense something and tell the others to go ahead, I use my search skill and sensed three small entities prowling behind us but now just me, I switch my gun from full auto to semi and quickly turn around and took three quick shots hitting and due to the enchantment on the gun once the bullets hit they're set on fire with belfire, I quickly use analyze. Chimara(magicly mutated varient) x 3 LVL:16 Hp:0/600 MP: 50/50 Weakness:water/ice 'Hmm looks like pathbriger will be the best choice there.' Then I get the notifications. 1400 exp x 3 Level up Marksman perk obtained 1/5: the perk helps with accuracy with any weapon with a 25% chance of a critical hit Firearm mastery level up x 2 'Good, my firearms skill is coming along and this marksman perk will help with aiming at far away targets and the critical will help with damage.' I turn but as I do something catches my eyes, I see something that looks like it's flying, I put my zebra modified gun and sling it on my back and quickly take out my sniper from my inventory and look though its scope and zoom to its max and see something I couldn't believe. An alicorn the buck. I use analyze but what I read makes me flip. Young Alicorn(magicly mutated unicorn variant) LVL:32 HP:3350 MP:10000 Weakness: do to their magily enhanced body their resistances are very high, suggestion run or have a weapon with the ability to cut through magic 'Oh buck me sideways, a magicly created alicorn who the buck could be doing that, no buck that why and it says that was once a unicorn the buck happened to the world while my dad was gone.' I quickly look though the scope again trying to see it's direct path after keep my eye on it for awhile I could tell it was going in the direction of the old ruins of the old town of applosa which I found out that was out there after surveying the area yesterday through my map and the maps kept at that courier outpost but on my map it displayed a skull with the words under it saying slaver camp but also for some reason it had the crest of celestia and Luna next to it, but other then that nothing else I could, wait, I aim down a bit and see she has a saddle bag look back up and see something that unsettled me, she was looking directly at me or my direction. 'Oh buck.' I quickly aim my gun down but before I could I see a although faint a flash. 'Double buck, she teleported.' Then my detection skill goes haywire. 'Ah buck my head it's feels like it's splitting, I guess this is what happens when the passive side of detect can't pinpoint a target teleporting.' Then sound of the teleport comes from behind I quickly turn while taking out ace and point it at the alicorn and it has a shield up. Horse apples. I say in my head, I look her over and she has a violet coat while wearing ragged clothing her eyes glowing then they spoke. “You, what business do you have to observe the goddess.” “Wow conseded much. I thought. And who are you.” “Did you not hear me pesent I'm the goddess.” “Not what you are, who are you, your name.” Then two notification pop up. Possession blocked by gamer body Mind infiltration countered by gamer's mind and warp magic. “You know it's not nice to read or take over someones mind and body right.” “Impossible your tiny mind and body dares to resist this goddesses command.” “Damn right bitch now answer me or die.” “Hahaha you think you can kill me foolish mortal what can you do against my power.” I grab the handle of the magi-axe. “Gauntlet mode.” In a flash it transforms and I throw a punch into the shield shattering it, her go wide. “I-impossible! ” She yells in suprise. “Lady I'm full of impossibilities.” I focus my magic to make a ball of magic. She backs up. “Now leave.” She quickly teleports away not sure of what else to do cautious of my capabilities, once she was gone I dispel the ball of magic and pant heavily. “Buck that was close need to get stronger to make sure we're safe.” Then two notifications pop up. Magic manipulation Lvl 1 Magic sphere tier 1 “Good start but not great. ”I hurry up and catch up to the others and while on the way it starts to pour down rain and we make it to the entrance of the stable with the giant number 22 on it. “Well let's see what's behind door 22.”
