Darkness thats all I see , nothing more , nothing less . ' Bloody 'ell , this is boring ' I say in thought as I drift thought the darkness.
Well my name is Tristan Glenn , or better know to my mates as 'Irish' since I hale from Dublin . The nickname has stuck with me for quite a while .
' Now how the fuck did Aye wind up 'ere ' I say again in though as I try to piece together why I'm drifting though darkness .
Before I come up with any good answers , the darkness turns into a bright light and I soon pass out .
"Aye , bloody hell , why does it feel like I drank a whole bottle of Mad Dog ? " I say picking my self off the lushess grass
" This doesn't look like Knoxville .. " I say noticing the bright ass colors and weird looking trees . I just shrug it off and try to take a step before falling on my face .
" Sheeit , what the bloody hell did I trip on ? " I say looking at the ground for the source of my downfall , only to notice a duffel bag . Without second thought , I open the bag .
" What the ? " I say pulling out my custom Navy Colt Single Action Revolver , that has two shamrocks on each side of the cyndlire ( Sorry cant spell) , and then pulling out a 30-30 Winchester lever action , along with a rifle holster and an holster for my pistol .
" Now how in the great hell did these get here ? " I say putting my holster in my belt loop on my blue jeans , along with putting the rifle holster on my back .
- 30 mins of tampering and seaching later-
After putting my guns in their respective holsters I reach in the bag once more , when I do I pull out two more items , a 16'in Wesson bowie knive , and a can of Copenhagen Long Cut Straight dip
" Hell yea ! Now , were's me bullets ? " I say noticing that I havent found any ammo for my guns .
So I reach once into the ' Bag of Wonders' as I have nicknamed it . When I do , instead of a box of bullets , I pull out a note that reads
'Dear whoever this may consern , inside you will find your four most prized and wanted items from you world . The firearmes inside are enchanted to be able wo shoot with out reloading . Enjoy . - The Enlightend One '
I just sit there dumbstruck until I hear a voice say " HELL YES !! " At the sudden noise , I draw and cock my revolver
" Might as well check it out . " I say walking though the folige toward the voice .
When I get to the location , I see a man , rummanging though a duffel bag .
" Oh , and M4 ? Hell yes !" He says picking up the assault rifle and pulling back the cocking mechnism .
Just then I notice that he is decked out in an army uniform . ' What the 'ell is an Marine doin ..' My thoughts are cut off when I step on a twig , snapping it .
" Shit .. " As soon as I say that , the GI turns and fires a burst of gunfire to the right of were I am . So I take the chance of him not knowing were I am at to sneak to a postiton behind him . When I do , I see that he has forgoten the sound and has returned to the duffle bag .
So deciding that this is the best chance I got , I start to sneak up on him . When I get about 4 feet away , he turns and swings his M4 at my face , which he successfully hits me with, and then jumping onto me and puching me in the face .
" Think I would forget about that sound ? " He say landing another devasating punch into my gut . When he goes to swing again , I catch his punch and hit him with a powerful right hook to his face , knocking him off of me .
So I take the chance to jump up and pull out my gun and point at his face , unforcantly , he decides to do the same .
As we stare each other down , a 1911 in one hand , a Civil War era revolver in another , I decide to state the clear point .
" Aye , it seems that were at an impass , eh ? " ,
" I guess so " He say with a tone full of wonderful anger . I lower my gun in a attempt to ease the tension , he keeps his gun pointed at my face
" Aye , laddy , will you drop the bloody gun ? " I say holstering my revolver
" Just because you lowered yours doesnt mean jack shit to me . " He says
" Oi , bloody 'ell , will you just put the the damned gun away . " I say backing up a step or two .
" Why should I ? " ," Because , if you had'nt notice , were in the middle of a bloody forest ! " I say with anger
" True . Name is Zach Larrson . " He says finally putting the gun away .
" Aye , pleasure to meet ya . Name is Tristan Glenn , just call me Irish " I say holding out a hand to shake , which takes .
" Irish ? Nice .. Friends call me Danger . Now were the fuck are we ? " He says looking around .
" 'ell if I know . Me and some mate's were drinking the night away at pub .."
" A pub ? Okay I can tell you Irish and all , but for gods sake , use words I can understand " He says while still looking around .
" Well boyo , a pub is a bloody bar . Anywho , we best get a move on and find a place that doesnt have creepy arse tree's , eh ? "
" Sure ... Lead the way , boyo " He says trying to mimic an irish accent
" Terrible .. Bloody americans cant do much of anything . Except for Copenhagen .. " I say walking off in an random direction
" Hey ! Wait up" Zach yells after me .
- Some Time later- After walking for what seems like forever , we finally spot a clearing past some tree's .
" 'Bout bloody time ! " I say pulling out my bowie to cut my to the clearin. After making a path , I venture out into the clearing , after looking around for any sign of a town , I hear Zack say
" Hey numbnuts , I think I see a town " He says pointing at the town
" Its Irish , ye army man . And why the bloody 'ell does the town look like 19th cnetury Britan ? " I say noticing that most of the houses are wooden or made of stone .
" No idea , but nothing ventured is nothing gained , eh ? " Zach says walking to the village , M4 in tow .
" That bloody idiot is going get him self killed . " I say running to catch up , little did I know that I would be in for quite a shock .
3rd Person , By the wonderful Shadow Brony and Dark Rabbit
As the human know as Rabbit wakes up in a back alley in a daze.
"What thah fuck did ah do last night?" he asked no one in particular, taking a step his boot hits something nearly making him fall.
"Wha?" Bending down and grabbing a black duffel bag with a note attached.
'Dear whomever this may concern,You have been sent to a world known as Equestria.Your purpose here is whatever you make of it, good luck.'
" *sigh* Well shoot...might as well see what ah got." he then began to rummage through the contents to find...
"MAH NECKLACE....AND COWBOY HAT....AND MAH SAX...AND....mah bowie knife?" *scratches head* "Why would ah need mah bowie fer?"
He simply shrugs it off and straps his new gear on him heads out of the alley into a vast city of lights signs and...casinos?
"Wait...Vegas?" he again asks no one "Ah thought ah was in Equestria?"
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Shadow, while curious about the note and duffel bag containing his phone, Chuck Norris fact book, football, and heirloom Colt Model 1917 revolver passed down since his great grandfather back in WWI, he was even more curious as to why he was in a city similar to Vegas, except filled with ponies.
"Fuck it." Shadow thought. "Even if I'm dreaming, it's Vegas." He decided as he headed towards one of the casinos.
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
"Gamblin' time!" he then heads to the nearest casino forgetting he had no money.
"Wait, what the hell are these coins in my wallet?" He said as he pulled out one golden coin.
"Is that...real gold? Hmm, maybe it's the currency here. That'd explain why all of my cash is gone."
un-aware of all the stares rabbit simply keeps on moving towards any casino near him until he stops.
"Wait...money....do ah have any? he checks for his money only to find gold coins. "oh this'll do."
He then heads into the casino named "Equestrian's 13"
````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
"Equestrian's 13, eh?" Shadow said as he walked up to the casino.
He walked inside, and instantly got stared at by the ponies who weren't wasted out of their minds. A big pony with a security uniform walked over to him, but didn't say anything.
"Uhh, hey there. This where I can do some gambling?" Shadow asked.
The security pony stared for a few more moments before slowly nodding.
Shadow smiled. "Great!" He said before walking over to the poker tables
````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Rabbit went to a random poker table and was getting ready for a few rounds still oblivious to the stares.
Another figure sat down and when he looked up he saw another person...then he noticed all the ponies.
"Oh..."
was all he said before the game began.
Shadow couldn't help but snicker to himself as the person apparently just realized he was surrounded by ponies.
"Looks like both the literal and metaphoric hands are being dealt." Shadow thought to himself.
Shadow smiled. "It looks like you're out of place in more than one way then, eh? Alright then, how about we discuss a few things over at the slots? You know how to operate one of those, right?" He finished in a sarcastic tone.
"fold."
he gets up and walks to the slots
"Fold. So do you have any idea what the hell is going on?" Shadow asked as he headed towards the slots with the only human he can see in the place.
"Yew're askin' the fella who didn't know how tah play poker." Rabbit told him with incredulous look.
"But ah did find this note." He hands the stranger the note. "Oh by the way, name's Randle but call me Rabbit." putting out another genuine smile.
"Hunter, my friends call me Shadow." Shadow said, sticking his hand out for a shake.
*shakes hand* "So yeah, apparently we are s'pposed to head to a place named Ponyville and tah do that we'll need a map and somebody tah tell us where we are." they reach the machines and both sit.
"Any ideas?"
"Well I guess we should ask one of the ponies for directions. You pulled me away from my poker table, so I'll let you go do that." Shadow replied
"Yokay..." Rabbit gets up and chooses a random pony.The pony he chose was a chocolate colored mare with tan braided hair and tail with an odd tattoo of a chocolate mocha. "Uhmm s'cuse me miss, but do you know where i could find me a map?"
The mare just stares with a slight nervous view and he notices this.
"Oh, sorry if ah scared ya miss but ya see, ah've been lost for a good while and ah have no clue of where ah'm at in Equestria."
Her features softened a little at this.
"Oh you poor dear, well you're currently in Las pegasus, south of Apploosa and southwest from ponyville." she then pulls out a map from hammerspace? "Here is a map of the surrounding area including Apploosa." she said Hoofing(?) him the map and as soon as he put up the map the excitement and happiness couldn't be held back any longer. He then scooped up the mare is a big hug causing her to start blushing madly.
"OH thankyewthankyewthankyew sooo much miss, ah won't never ferget this ever fer as long as ah liuv!" he exclaimed as the happiness boosted his accent to near hick levels."Ah fergot , what's yer name?"
"I-i'm C-chocolate M-malt." she stuttered through her blush
"Whelp Miss Malt, thankyew so very much." He then planted a big ol kiss on her cheek making her blush ten times worse. Putting the now flustered mare down and jogging back to shadow.
"lookie there, a little white lie, a bunch of charm and we are set." he spoke giving the map to shadow and giving a wink to the same chocolate mare turning her face a complete cherry red.
Shadow laughed. "Alright, props to you for that. I was hoping I could spend some time here, but I guess that can wait." Shadow said as he got off of his stool.
Shadow and Rabbit exited the casino, and Shadow spoke. "Mind if I see that map for a sec?"
Rabbit nodded and handed Shadow the map. "Alright, so here we are in Las Pegasus, and we need to get to that place known as Ponyville. Looking at the scale, I'd say that's about a two day journey. Guess we better stock up on some supplies then."
"well you can do that cuz i got the map and directions, i'll be over here with mah sax." He walks to a random area and begins to play his sax cycling between blues and jazz.
Shadow sighed. "Alright, I'll be right back." He said before walking off and leaving Rabbit to his sax.
"He's not bad, but not my cup of tea." Shadow thought to himself as he looked for a convenient store, or something similar to it.
He eventually came across a store, and walked inside. He got the expected stares, but shrugged them off as he grabbed a basket. He walked through the aisles, and picked up a lot of water, some trail mix, and other various snacks. "Rabbit's gonna owe me for this." Shadow thought aloud as he thought about the cost.
He walked up to the register, and set the basket down while putting on the friendliest smile he could muster in order to calm down the shaking blue mare behind the desk.
"I-is th-that it for y-you, s-s-sir?"
"Yeah, this is everything I guess."
"A-alright." She said as she began to tap her register.
"You can relax you know, I'm not going to eat you or anything. That's what I have the trail mix for."
She actually seemed to relax a bit, and spoke. "Well, that's sixty-four bits."
Shadow pulled out his wallet, and got a coin marked '50', and a coin marked '20'. He handed them to her, and she prepared to get the change.
He held up his hand. "Don't worry about the change, consider it an apology if I scared you before."
She smiled. "Thank you sir!"
Shadow nodded to her, and picked up the supplies. After trying to figure out where he was, he finally found his way back to Rabbit, who had apparently drawn a crowd in his absence. "Oh boy..."
````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
'I think Shadow ain't that bad a feller, atleast he's company for the time bein.' Rabbit came out thought process to see a small crowd had formed from his playing.
"Well then, how are ya'll doin' today?" he got a few murmurs of 'ok' and 'fine'.
He nods his head "okay then, how about i play for ya'll?"
The crowd got louder at this and that's all he needed.
He started low then slowly rose into a stable note, suddenly braking off into a riff of sorts and started One by Metallica....with a sax. Since this was new to the ponies they just listened with awe as he went through each riff with ease.
by 3 minutes in Rabbit had tipped his hat off to the ground in which it was now being slowly filled with coins marked with 1's, 5's, and the occasional 10
soon the song began to pick up and sound more rock than jazz with a sax but still held that energetic feel.Now he was really lost to reality and he hit the first solo blazing through it like nothing. All the ponies watched in awe as the strange creature in front of them played with such speed that would put some fiddlers to shame.
then the breakdown hit and it went like a breeze soon coming to an end.Playing the last note Rabbit stopped and the crowd was silent for about a second before busting into a full-blown cheer, not to mention the crowd had gotten huge while he played.
looking around the crowd for a minute he spotted shadow heading back towards him. "Thank you all for listenin' and bein' generous, but that's goin' to be mah last so have a nice day now." he then waved them away as shadow finally got to him through all the ponies.
Rabbit lifted the cowboy hat and showed the contents, lots and LOTS of bits filled it to the brim and then some."looks like we're set for a good while." all the while he pulled out handfuls to give to Shadow. "That's for whatever you bought for us since you used your own money."
