"Ouch my aching head!" I said while sitting up and rubbing it. "Whoa, uhmm.. where am I? Wait a minute.. who am I?" I got up and went to the door way. I stuck my head out there to make sure it was safe because waking up in an empty room with a blood trial and with no pony to be seen is very unusual. So I gotta stay alert.
I went down the hall way and saw a sign, it read "Bunker 97". Sill walking down the hall I started to smell something horrible. The smell got stronger the further I went. This part of the hall way was dark and some of the lights that worked were flashing and sparking.
What I saw every time the light flashed was.. terrible.. just terrible. Bodies were every where, blood stains on the walls and ceiling. The bodies had to of been decaying for weeks or more. "A great battle must of happened here." I thought to myself. I notice that some of them had a Uniform on with colors of Red, Purple, and Grey. Guessing it was a militia. Everypony had on a badge that had two numbers on it "12". Then it hit me like some pony throwing a brick at my head as hard as they could.
I remembered. It was an attack by the Unicorns from the west. Sirens going off, ponies yelling and screaming. Faction 12 Troopers and militia grabbing battle saddles. Then there was a huge explosion at the bunkers entrance. Shots were fired. Bodies dropping. One of the attackers yelled take no prisoners. Me and some guards wearing the uniform that had the same colors as the one I saw with same numbers 12 fell back. I was hit in the back with a slug, still awake dragged into a white room with a blood trial. Lady Wynter (Winter), Leader of Unicorns of the West said to one of her soldiers "Execute him. We take NO prisoners.". "Right away mam" said the mare. He leaned down to my ear and whispered "I'm sorry". Then hit me hard in the head with a iron pipe which knocked me back into reality.
I got back up and rubbed my head (again). I was really hungry so I looked to see if the bunker had a cafeteria. It did but one problem. All of the food were canned and there was no can opener. I just smashed it open with my hoof and the vegetables splattered all over the floor. I ate it anyways.
I felt like it was time for me to leave the bunker sense I felt stable. Not only that I was getting sick to my stomach from the horrendous smell . I scavenged what I could find.
- A bag full of stuff
- A battle saddle
- canteen
- 2 cans of food (with no can opener)
- Nap sack
I figured I was ready to leave. The exit was blocked by a couple of bodies but I notice something about some of the them, the enemy or the attacker had a horn like in my flashback I believe. From what I remember is that the horned ones are the magic wielders. Their uniform was a cape with colors of black, grey, and blue symbol that represented Unicorns of the West. Any who, I pushed the bodies out the way and walked outside. The sun beamed into my eyes and blinded me for a second or two. I rubbed them and blinked. My vision came back. I looked around for anypony. No pony to be seen. Everything was so beautiful and green. I looked up to see what was making the moving shadow. I thought it was a bird but it wasn't. It was a uhh.. a flying pony? He spotted me and in full speed. I readied my battle saddle for combat but it wasn't a mare at all. He was a she and she tackled me, squeezing me super hard to where I couldn't breath. I tried to say something but all I could get out was "Can't.. Breath!.." She stopped and said "Oh sorry Cass. Its just been so long how did you survive the war that happened here? You've been missing for 2 months! Every one was devastated for you missing sir."
"Uhhh.. Wait. Did you call me Cass?"
