Fallout Equestria: Wasteland Guardian
Chapter 70: A new foe
Previous ChapterNext ChapterOn the ground after a somewhat fun ride thanks to the Grand Pegasus Enclave remnants. The group found themselves back on Equestrian Highway 105 and they walked east. They also knew because of Purple's Pipbuck that Highway 105 and 104 meet.
They came across a one-story concrete building and Purple's Pipbuck said that it's an Equestrian Highway patrol building whose job was to patrol the roads, highways, and police the civilians as they moved out west and the soldiers who went out west to fight the Zebras.
They heard Raiders talking about things.
"I was taught how to clear a room," said Purple. "Bang and clear. Who has a frag grenade?"
Rocky Road gave Purple a fragmentation grenade she had.
"Thank you, Rocky," said Purple. "Everypony go leaning against the walls."
They all went against the wall. Lavender slightly opened one of the double doors and threw the grenades in and closed the door. There was a loud bang and they stormed it. The Raiders weren't prepared and in the main office area of the old police station.
With the Raiders in the main area dead, a Raider came out of the hallway and hit Purple with a pool cue only for Purple to force his .45 Auto Pistol into the Raider's mouth and shoot him.
Purple carefully moved down the hallway and noticed two side doors opened and he used that to his advantage. He quickly took out another Raider with a headshot and he took out the other Raider with his combat knife by gutting him like a fish and slicing his neck.
Not worth a challenge, Purple thought, But hey. Fuck it.
Purple entered the other room which was the holding cell and saw some ponies in it and two Raiders whom he quickly killed.
Rocky Road came and said, "Lavender. There was a radio and we got some Slavers coming here."
Purple replied, "Mares and Gentlecolts. If you can fight then raise your hoof. If not, stay here! If you are injured, speak out."
A majority of the ponies and a few Zebra's and some Crystal Ponies raised their hooves meaning they were ready to fight. Some spoke out that they were injured or that their colts or fillies were injured. Purple tended to the injured and Paladin Sapphire broke open the old armory. It was full of Commando Assault Rifles which have thirty round magazines or some have forty-five round magazines. But they had andom attachments such as sights, suppressors, grenade launchers, or under barrel shotguns.
Purple gave his medicine to the injured and told them to stay in the back while they helped them upfront but he grabbed a Commando assault rifle with dual magazines and red dot sight.
He joined them upfront. Not adding when he sat down some Slavers came in and dropped the Slavers.

In the armory.
Paladin Sapphire tried to open a locked gate by force and she decided to search the building while the firefight was happening for a key and even searched the bodies. But none of the keys opened it.
There was an arc welder and she put on the welder mask and used the arc welder and cut the door.
Paladin Sapphire got access to the old military high capacity high powered shotguns which were mostly the M.S.P.C.S or Military Special Purpose Combat Shotgun and armed them with it. She gave Purple a special one which had Dragon's Breath's rounds in them.
The Slavers kept coming with Raiders and it felt like an endless wave of them and they kept coming with two Raiders dead and ten more would take their place. But the gunfire kept coming and both sides kept the gunfire from coming.
When Purple would reload he used his wing to flip it upside down to place the dual magazine in or drop both empty ones, place in another one, and hit a button on the side.
But Paladin Sapphire and Lavender Astrology worked in a tag-team where when Lavender was reloading Paladin Sapphire would take over shooting at the Slavers and Raiders and vice versa. But they worked well and in unison.
Once the smoke cleared and they looked. All of the Raiders and Slavers were deceased and were looted for supplies.

Outside of the old police station.
"Go north!" Purple said, "Road is clear for several miles!"
Rainy Night said, "Lavender. CCA Honey Cake. Squad's Airy, Ethereal, and Loft just cleared Route 74 to Highway 104. I'll give you more updates or something. Technician Fourth Grade Rainy Night out."
Purple went back into the building and found a pair of aviator sunglasses with black lenses.
Paladin Sapphire did the same but with Patrolpony's sunglasses.
"Now we got some cool shades," said Paladin Sapphire.
"Let's go Guardians," said Purple. "Our work isn't done yet."
They followed Purple going south on the highway and they noticed some ponies wearing a crimson red and old sports gear. They charged them with spears and machetes. But they quickly put them down.
"Woo," said Critical, "That was fun."
Purple replied, "Don't know who they are."
Paladin Sapphire replied, "They're called 'The Legion.' Another version of your brother and his faction but they use mares as slaves as well and they don't want to lose and whoever loses who is a leader. They're beaten to death and thrown to the wolves literally. They're trained in 'winning is everything. Losing is death. Victory is everything, defeat results in death. Honor and Victory only.' They're fucking loons. They even tourment young colts into mindless killing machines when they turn sixteen."
Purple was the only one disgusted by what Paladin Sapphire said about how they treated colts and fillies. All of them but Paladin Sapphire forgot that Purple was born and raised in a Stable where colts and fillies weren't treated how Paladin Sapphire told them how 'The Legion' treated them.
They kept going south and Paladin Sapphire rode on Purple's back not adding she rested her head on the back and top of Purple's head.
"Lavender what's your nickname?" asked Paladin Sapphire.
Lavender replied, "It's 'Purple Hazel Artist.' From two old Equestrian special forces soldiers who turn out to be husband and husband. And they're my five-times great grandfathers. Purple from Purple Masonry and Artist from Hazel Artist. And that's the last time I'm going to talk about it."
Rocky replied, "Lavender or Purple. Why don't you and Sapphire or whatever her name is live together? If you two are together."
Paladin Sapphire replied, "Because I don't want to. I grew up in a household with a lot of sisters, a mother who's a piece of work and a father who always raped me. I sometimes think that Purple is going to rape me."
Purple replied, "I won't. I'm a gentle stallion. But your decision is your decision and I respect that."
They kept walking and going until they saw some smoke rising in the distance.
"Come on Critical," said Purple. "Everypony else. stay here."
Purple and Critical ran off to investigate the smoke and they saw a huge encampment with smoke and tons of stallions in crimson red old sports equipment, mostly football equipment. They were either training or chasing young colts around and whipping them with whips to get them into shape.
Sick fuckers, Purple thought, These fuckers are on my personal enemy list. There up top on I'm switching the focus away from my brother and dealing with these fuckers!
They did some reconnaissance and it was sick to Purple's stomach. He wanted to go in there and shoot every pony in there and give the colts, fillies, and mares a better future.
"Psst," whispered Critical, "Where did your brother get his name?"
Purple replied, "There were three baseball players back then. One named 'Base Runner,' another one named 'Icy Frost Wind,' and a third named 'Flyer Las Hoofer.' So he combined them into his name. He thinks it's better than Arsen Nimrod Walnut Icey Flier. He changed it to those three. He's a fucking Nimrod. Let's go back to the others."
They went back to the others but they noticed it was getting dark. They didn't go back to the town of Crimson. But they had a nice night under the starry night.
All of them stared up at the stars but all fell asleep. Purple who stayed up staring up at the stars which were peaceful and lovely. And he kept his wing around Paladin Sapphire to keep her warm and feel safe.
