Wittyhooves Campfire Tales

" Everypony comfortable", asked Wittyhooves in his lunar guard armor trusty trident in sheath.

" Yeah bro," said a stallion dressed as a sea pony" but why do you have a trident when the usual weapon for a guard is a spear"?

Wittyhooves held in a chuckle. The sea pony was a new friend from the fight. He had his candy stolen from the changeling thugs and had been found in the distance with a slingshot ready. They didn't know much about each other, other than names.

" Well thats Witty's weapon of choice," said Gyro, in a Engineer costume," didn't anypony tell you about the fight"?

" What fight"?

" We'll tell you later, but first lets brake you in to the group", Witty said, with a sly smile.

" Ummm ok, what do we do"?

" Well Blitz, we call it the Nightmare Night Delight, we go around until midnight and have a large prank battle. Last pony standing gets the candy bet by everypony. So come on every pony put some candy in the pot and we will start at separate ends of town," everypony puts in a variety of candy from their bags", only rule is you come back here when your out! Everypony bet. Ok. Go!

Wow, their all ready. I wonder how I can win. I don't even know any of these ponies. At least they are nice. Ooh, behind this tree!

Blitz jumps behind the large fir tree and gets on his stomach.

Ok, ok what should I do... I could. No. Or mabey. No.

Blitz lay their glaring at the ground for a second and finally got a plan together. He then trotted off onto the street.

Meanwhile

Ok lets not over think it this time. Ok I'm gonna get them good! I just need my blowgun, matches, telescope, tape, and skreaming bottle rockets. Darn I need to break off the sticks. Oh well I better hurry.

Witty runs off to his house to get his supplies.

Most of the night is filled with screams and laughter.

" Hey guys, said Gyro with a bunch of feathers stuck to his fur" were are Witty and that, new guy.

A few ponies walk to the fire, some's flanks burned and some wet.

Oh my Celestia what happened to you guys," yelled Drill Bit, not like she didn't know.

" Well," said a clown pony" it would seem that Witty is in a tree with an improvised missile launcher and Blitz is in the sewers jumping out of coltholes. But I think they're the only ponies left".

" This,ll be a while. Well i have a story for you guys anyway...

Ok I don't see anypony. Wait... Is that Blitz... in a colthole. Smart pony. But he obviously doesn't know that I am up here, and gonna snipe him.

Game set and match my friend, Witty thought as he put a rocket in the blowgun. He took aim with his makeshift scope and blew. The rocket was blown through the end of the tube, lit at the last second by the match taped to the end of his magnificent contraption. As the bullet took flight it scream what Witty thought would be a scream of victory...

Whats that noise, thought Blitz as he lifted himself from the colthole. He looked twards the noise and in an instant, he kicked the steel plate from the earth, lifted it in front of him and reflected the mystery object from its path.

"Oh buck" screamed Wittyhooves, breaking the silence of his own thoughts. He saw the whole procedure on the ground and was now playing chicken with a bottle rocket. At the last second he pulled his head to the side and dodged the projectile by a hair. It plunged into the trunk of the tree behind him and with a bang finish it's job by exploding into the rough wood.

The first thing to come to Witty's mind was; That was epic. The second was about his loss in the competition. He was going to have a lot to talk about when he got back to the fire.

Blitz equals completely broken in.
