Hunter Killer 141

It was at that point that Reaper decided to make his appearance. Remember his message earlier? Here's what it says decoded.

Heh Hey jackass!

What's our current situation?

The unicorn in front of you has the ability of telepathy.

So continue the code?

Yes. Alright, I'm following along.

Code word?

DevilMaster666

Same as usual then.

Yea. I'm going to the crash site to hide what we can salvage, meet up with you soon.

For what it's worth, I'm sorry.

It's worth nothing.

Oh right. You're an asshole. Dismissed.

Also, by make appearance, I mean slam me into the ground at speeds of Mach 1.

"Son of a biiiiiiiiiiiiiitch!"

"Sorry, but there wasn't a better way."

"Oh fuck you Reaper."

"Good to see your still the same."

I cracked my neck and pulled myself off the ground. I'll admit, Reaper already looked like a badass. He had black feathers, and already had picked up a few scars. I then turned to the pony, who was still clutching her leg.

"Oh right! We have to get her up to that castle! Some queen, princess, god, ruler pony is up there. Since we already kinda fucked up first contact protocol-"

"You mean YOU fucked up first contact protocol."

"We'll need to learn what the hell is going on. So you look for a cross and drop her off there, I'll find the entrance to the giant ass castle, and we'll meet at an ice cream shop. Sound good?"

"What is it with you and ice cream?"

"Don't judge me, I didn't have a childhood. Now then. Esperanto!"

"You totally bastardized that." And with that, Reaper took the pony and flew off. I let my wings pop out to their full length before taking to the skies.

4 hours later...

"What? I they had a whole bunch of murals of the sun and shit. I thought they liked the sun god Ra!"

"So you publicly shouted out 'ALL HAIL RA THE TRUE GOD OF THE SUN' right in front of the castle where the SUN goddess lives?"

"It was an honest mistake."

So now I was in a jail cell. I'll be honest, I don't like jail cells. However, either I stay in this nice little jail cell, or I most likely die. Take a guess which one I'll pick.

Luckily, a guard came to save me from boredom and Reaper's monologue.

"You two are to report to Princess Celestia. In her presence, if you make a move, I will execute you myself."

"Uh, guardsman...pony...thing. What exactly are we under arrest for?"

He put on a very bored face as he listed off the crimes. "Attempted murder-" I cut him off right there

"Hold up! I had her as a captive, much as you had me. I simply used tactics I learned to keep her restrained. As soon as we got here, I sent Reaper to bring her to the nearest medical facility, which I trust that he did. On another note, I don't 'attempt' murder." For my efforts, I recieved a glare.

"Heresy."

"That was an honest mistake. We're not from these parts. Where we are from, the sun is normally a sign of Ra. We had thought we were in the midst of Ra worshippers." Now the guard was looking up in thought, trying to find a way to condemn them.

"You're griffin."

"YOU RACIST BASTARD!" Okay, I'll admit, it was hard not to laugh at his reaction. "I COME IN HERE, HELP HEAL YOUR SOLDIER, AND TRY TO BE FRIENDLY WITH YOU AND YOU WANT TO CONVICT ME BECAUSE I'M DIFFERENT? MAY YOUR SOUL BURN IN THE FIRES OF THE TARTARUS!" I heard Reaper supress a snicker. The guard was on the verge of shitting himself.

"NOW TAKE ME TO YOUR RULER! I AM IN NEED OF ANSWERS!"

To his credit, the guard tried not to look scared. He failed, but at least he tried. He calmly said "Yes. Come with me." then opened our cell. He moved at a brisk trot, leading us up stairs and into the middle of the castle. Apperently, we had been in a dungeon. How...primitive. Eventually, we reached what I assumed to be the royal throne room. Take I guess why?

An alabaster unicorn/winged pony who stood about my height was sitting in it. She wore a crown, and other regalia. Around her were multiple...ponies. That looked important. Really, that's all I got. Hey! Don't judge me, I'm Talon! We aren't exactly known for being geniuses.

"So these are the griffins that shot one of my little ponies." The voice wasn't angry, nor remorseful. I couldn't actually detect any emotion. It was simply a statement.

"Actually ma'am. HE shot one of your ponies." Aaaaand there's the asshat known as Reaper! It must be a skill to be *that* much of a dbag all the time. To my surprise, the unicorn...wingy...thing didn't even acknowledge his presence. I wish I could do that.

"However, you have redeemed yourselves by making sure she got to a medical facility. For that, I thank you." Was that...sincerity? Was she letting us off the hook?

"You have questions I hear. Now, I know you are not of this world. Sadly, I can not tell you how you got here, nor how you'll get back."

"Well, that answers one question. I have a few more though."

"Please, ask away. Know however, that I'll be requiring your assistance after you have finished." Ah! There's the twist. I can already guess what we'll be doing. Two allies disguised perfectly as the enemy? It'd be too easy.

"Alright. First up, where are we. Second off, where are your guns. Third off, why is everyone so racist? Fourth off...where are your guns? Seriously?"

"Well you see, currently we are at war with-" A giant smash interrupted our conversation as multiple feathery figures smashed through a giant sun stained glass window that was behind the throne.

"Nobody move!" One of the figures started firing small arms. Celestia ducked down behind her throne. I ran forward towards the scene of destruction. Somehow, I knew this was a rescue mission. I jumped out the window and started flying away, with Reaper hot on my heels. We hightailed it out of the airspace surrounding the mountain, dodging bolts of various elements being shot at us. The team that had busted us flew a little bit behind us. The leader caught up to me.

"Nice job getting captured dumbass. Next time, have a plan. I haven't seen you before, so I'll be bringing you before the council. Try not to fuck up dumbass."

"Can I have the pleasure of learning the name of the bitchiest griffin I've ever seen?"

"Sure dick-for-brains. Names Gilda. Don't forget it, cause next time I'll shove my claw up your ass."
