Predator: Equestria
Cleanliness
Previous ChapterNext ChapterRainbow Dash rummaged through Rarity’s bag and pulled out another dress and tore it up. “Just what do you think you’re… OH NO NOT AGAIN!” Rarity screamed and grabbed the ripped dress from Rainbow Dash. “Hey I need that” Rainbow Dash laughed and pulled the dress back and started to redress her wounds.
Rarity scoffed “Fine but next time I’m not bringing extra dress for you to ruin”. Rarity stormed off and Rainbow Dash chuckled as she finished redressing her wounds. Applejack walked up to her Pegasus friend “Did yah have tah do that?” Applejack laughed and Rainbow Dash gave her a wink and trotted off, her Gatling gun leading her way.
“Keep moving” Trixie ordered and Zecora followed the orders reluctantly as they both proceeded forward through the forest. “You all have no idea what you are facing” Zecora told Trixie who laughed. “Yeah a bunch of bare foot guerilla fighters who are following us” Trixie replied and Zecora shook her head at Trixie’s foolishness.
“Stupid Rainbow Dash and her… barbaric nature, how dare she destroy my beautiful dresses just so she can redress her wounds” Rarity complained to herself as she trotted through the forest.
“Fluttershy, do you see any tracks?” Twilight asked her Pegasus friend who shook her head. “Keep looking” Twilight told her and looked off into the trees ahead.
Rainbow Dash trotted heavily through the forest, twigs snapping under her hooves as she proceeded on. Suddenly she heard rustling in the brush in front of her.
She immediately stopped and leveled her Gatling gun at the brush thicket and listened. The rustling continued and Rainbow Dash flicked the safety on her Gatling gun off “Come on you bastards… old Rainboom is waiting” Rainbow Dash whispered. She had named the gun Rainboom on the fact that its intense fire rate along with the iconic sound that it gave off meant it needed an awesome name.
Suddenly a little hedgehog rustled out of the brush thicket. Rainbow Dash sighed and switched the Gatling gun’s safety on and exhaled a deep breath. Suddenly she thought she seen something moving through the trees and lifted her Gatling back up.
She waited for a moment… nothing, Rainbow Dash sighed “Must be the anxiety getting to me” she muttered to herself then continued on.
Rarity cursed to herself as she continued on. She had started to sweat and thanks to Rainbow Dash’s constructive bandages, Rarity no longer had anything clean and fresh to change into. She felt the squishiness of the sweat in her combat gear as she trotted on, cursing Rainbow Dash all the while.
Suddenly a glint caught Rarity’s eye and she looked over to see something glinting in the setting sun. She quickly trotted over and stopped 15 yards away from what looked to be rather magnificent dresses along with some other assorted clothing. “Oh sweet Celestia, I’m saved” Rarity said, in a damsel in distress voice.
She raced over to the clothing and picked up the first dress but as she did the clothing simply vanished into a green flame. Rarity gasped and lept onto her hindlegs and unslung her grenade launcher. She began breathing heavily as she inspected the surroundings and searched for her unseen enemy.
She tried furiously to control her breathing but couldn’t, she knew that she had just sprung some sort of trap. She heard
something snap behind her and she spun around, pointing her grenade launcher in the direction that the noise had come from. She began to sweat heavily and a bead of sweat rolled down into her eye.
The salty sweat burned her eye and she attempted to rub it away, losing focus of the problem at hand. She finally rubbed the sweat from her eye and looked forward. Suddenly there was a large snap, like the sound of an electric whip. Rarity froze at the sound and from behind her a large green burst of energy flew towards her.
The energy blast punched through her back and blew a large hole out the front of her chest. Rarity gagged at the immediate pain and looked down as blood spurted from her chest. She was still standing on her hindlegs but she began to lose her balance as her life slipped away.
Rainbow Dash had heard the snap sound and looked over to see her white unicorn friend fall forward, blood was profusely leaking out of a huge hole in her chest.
“RARITY” Rainbow Dash screamed as she charged forward at a rather face pace, considering the weight of the Gatling gun.
The entire group looked over to see Rainbow Dash charge for their fallen friend. They all began to rush towards her as well.
Despite being weighed down by the Gatling gun Rainbow Dash was easily able to get to her friend first. She rolled her friend over but saw that there was no life in her friend’s once beautiful and lively eyes. Rainbow Dash looked up to see a horrid creature with holes in her body, a horn and a set of insect like wings. “MOTHER-FUCKER” Rainbow Dash screamed as she switched the Gatling gun’s safety off and started the massive machine gun.
The gun whirred to life and then the entire forest seemed to be filled with the tremendous and awe-inspiring sound of the M134 Gating gun. Rainbow Dash continued to let out a roar as she held the trigger on the Gatling gun down. 7.62x51mm rounds tore away at trees.
The assassin made for a timely escape. The others joined Rainbow Dash and at her side they all opened fire with their weapons. Zecora fell to the ground and covered her ears due to the insane amount of noise being produced by the weapons.
Rainbow Dash continued to fire her massive machinegun and the rounds began to chop down trees as the gun fired at a rate of 6000 rounds per minute.
Applejack’s M60 rattled in her hooves but she kept her machinegun at hip level, and like her rainbow haired Pegasus friend she too began to cut down trees.
Trixie’s MP5 was hindered by the larger weapons wielded by the others and she looked down to Rarity’s dead body and spotted her custom revolving grenade launcher. Slinging her MP5 on her back she picked up Rarity’s grenade launcher and began to fire rounds towards the jungle where they grenade rounds exploded mercilessly.
Twilight held her M16 in one hoof and fired the assault rifle and pulled out her sidearm, a Desert Eagle .44 magnum and began to fire that into the forest. Her M16’s magazine ran dry and she triggered the M203 grenade launcher. The 40mm grenade round blew apart the bottom off a tree and that tree collapsed downwards and contributed to the large pile of fallen trees the team was making. Twilight reloaded a fresh magazine into her M16 and began to fire it again.
Rainbow Dash preformed large horizontal arcs with her Gatling gun and finally after a full minute of firing her massive gun the ammunition feed ran dry and the gun whirred but didn’t fire.
A few moments later the entire team ceased fire and looked into the large smoke cloud created by all the firepower they had spit into the forest. Brass casings and spent magazines littered the ground and the barrels of all the weapons smoked.
Rainbow Dash continued to hold the trigger on her Gatling gun down and the gun’s red hot barrels continued to spin, the whirring noise was all that could be heard. The smoke began to clear and the team began to stand up, Twilight looked to Rainbow Dash who was breathing heavily.
Rainbow Dash let her hoof off the trigger and the gun whirred to a stop. Twilight and Fluttershy both reloaded their M16s and stepped forward into the large mess of knocked down trees, in search for their assassin.
Zecora got up and followed the team, all except Rainbow Dash who simply stood there with her Gatling gun, posed in the exact same position she was when she started shooting.
As Zecora followed the team she spotted a green liquid on a tree leaf and brought her hoof towards it. The mere touch of the liquid made her shiver and it felt almost like blood. “Hey! Come on” Trixie ordered and Zecora wiped the green liquid off on her hindleg and followed the group back to Rainbow Dash and the recently deceased Rarity.
Fluttershy immediately rushed to Rarity’s side and began to check for vital signs, it was a useless effort really, any-pony with any-sort of common sense would know there was no saving her. “NOOO” Fluttershy screamed as she began to weep over her dead unicorn friend. Fluttershy pointed to Applejack who was carrying Pinkie’s radio. “Call us an extraction team…NOW”
