Ponylands: 2P Co-op (Borderlands2 x FIM x human)
Chapter 1: 1 Welcome to Pandora
Load Full Story Next ChapterMy name is Blake A. Williams and "Ow fuck, my head!" I yelled as I woke up to the wrong side of the bed, or a goddamned metal floor I should say. I sat up and briefly scoped my surroundings to find myself in what appears to be a partially oxidized metal room, with a thick yellow horizontal stripe going around the entire room. I suspect it somehow linked 'Hyperion' since their is a giant logo of it on the floor, probably the same company that made this room since it has the same futuristic-looking design.
I looked down to what I was wearing, the usual: olive-green, sleek, light, jacket from the Old Navy, blue sagging jeans, and a pair of black and blue Reebok sneakers with a bright orange sole on the bottom with a 'zigzag' pattern. I felt my black, straight, and debatably emosish hair and 'still got my hair' I thought.
As I began to rub my temples to relieve myself of the ongoing headache I was having and groaning, a feminine voice spoke 5 feet from behind me and said, "Um hi?".
I turn my head to find (I kid you not) a purple unicorn that was at the same height as my collar bone. It had a darker purple mane with a small hot pink stripe running through and matches the tail. On each side of its flanks there is a magenta six-pointed star with smaller white and magenta stars surrounding it.
Not wanting to scare it by screaming like a moron, I quickly calmed myself and responded,
"Wow, are you a talking purple Unicorn? Cause I must be dreaming."I said with a slightly sarcastic tone.
"Yes and I suspect the same thing, but can you be a little more careful before spouting out profanity?"
Still a little shocked I closed my eyes took a deep breath. I opened them (and yes she is still there) just to be sure I am not hallucinating. Thinking no apparent reason to be rude to a kind-of cute sentient being or stranger just because he/she is different.
Rubbing the back of my head, I said, "Oh sorry you had to hear the 'f-bomb'. I have to wake up to on a metal floor, not the best thing to wake up on. Anyway back to the point: do you know where we are?".
"I have no idea, I was just walking to my home in the middle of the night then suddenly a ball of blue lightning came out of nowhere! Next thing I knew I woke up with a sore headache in this very same room like you about half-a-minute before you did! Do you...!?" she panicked.
I raised my brow a bit in surprise and responded, "If I did would I have asked you that question?" I said with a tone of irritation. "But anyways to answer that question: no, I was just walking down the halls of my high school in the afternoon when the same ball of lightning (with your description) suddenly left me blacked out. Then you know the rest."
"Wait your a teenager? You a lot older for some one who is a... uh. what exactly are you?"
"I am a homo sapiens or human for short. Humans happen to share a common ancestor closely with apes, not evolved from. People tend to get that wrong. And you...?"
"A pony or more specifically a unicorn"
"Oh I forgot to introduce myself" I held out my hand. "My name is Blake Williams, call me Blake. As you can probably tell already, I am a 17 year-old male of my species. I come from a city named San Francisco in a country call the United States of America on a planet called Earth. I am not sure If I am even in the same universe as where I came from since I have never seen a talking hor...- I mean unicorn."
"Names Twilight Sparkle, I am a female and I am 23. I come from a town call Ponyville, Equestria on a planet called Equis." she said as she accepted the hand (or hooves?) shake, though I can tell it is weird for us both to touch a completely alien appendage.
"A young adult? You look five to seven years younger, like near my age!"
"Wow thank you! And you look seem pretty well-educated for a teenager!"
"That's what paying attention in class makes you and to be honest, a lot of my friends and schoolmates are occasional dumb asses, but they are cool enough."
Twilight rolled her eyes and giggled a little.
"Shouldn't you be freaking out right now that you have made contact with an intelligent extraterrestrial being?" I said as I made a thought.
"I have many types of sentient species on my planet that are much more intimidating than what you look like and meeting something else new isn't really all that shocking."
"Wow, cause us humans are the only sentient species on my planet. And before you ask why I am not freaking out is because unlike others, I learn not to waste my energy on panicking unless I think I know I am going to get harmed. Lucky for you I don't happen to be the average human who freaks out and panics."
"It seem like you tough and new situations pretty well!"
I shook my head and added, "I am not phased by much but, anyways, lets find a way out of whatever we are in and find a way back to our worlds or universes for that matter."
"Our universes?" she asked with confusion.
"Well, you see on my home planet or universe, it is an idea or theory that our own universe may not be the only universe. In fact there may be infinite amount of others with infinite possibilites, which is the most probable explanation I can come up for why I see a talking purple unicorn in an unfamiliar room." I saw her mouth drop.
"Wow amazing, you are into science, cause I am too!"
"It's really nothing, I just know basics, but it is mind-blowing stuff when you learn more about it. Anyways, lets find an exit and find a way back home."
"Agreed, now lets have a look around to find anything useful!"
I made a better look around and only found what appears to be an empty futuristic red and yellow crate with a complex opening mechanism across from the only way out of here at the back end of the room.
I sighed and said, "It looks like someone got here before us. This place is picked clean of whatever was in that crate."
Twilight looked at the logo and said "Does Hyperion ring any bells?"
"No, I am unfortunately as clueless just as you are. Lets see if we can't find some answers out there."
I looked at the only way out of the room: the door. The door, apparently, also has the complex opening mechanism like the empty crate across from it. It took up almost all of the wall's area.
I signaled Twilight to come over to the door with my hand. "Lets look for a way to open this tin can.".
As we came closer to the door, a green lit button stuck out like a sore thumb on the right side of the door and stopped in front of the button. Twilight put a hoof on my hand as I was about to touch the button."Are you sure it is a good idea to open this door? We don't know what's on the other side!"
"I know, but I'd rather not wait in this metal lunch box and starve to death waiting for help. And judging the condition of this room I'd say likely nobody will come and rescue us"
She sighed, "Well if you say so."
"Well..." I took a deep breath "...here we go!"
I pressed the button and as expected the door released its locks and slowly began to open out and downwards. As soon as it opened, a blast of freezing air went through the crack of the door. "Damn its cold!".
It was apparently in the middle of the clear cloudless night. We both gasped at the beautiful and breath taking view of the star-filled sky with magenta and green auras slithering like a snake across the sky. In front of the magmatic covered moon was a gigantic H-shaped satellite. Down on the ground there was snow everywhere with mountains ranging from just a small house to two empire state buildings. Just a few feet in front of us was a cliff: looking over a fatal 5000-7000 foot drop, the snowy plains and icy mountains, complete with the blue ocean on the horizon. No sign of civilization yet (unless you count the container and giant-ass satellite).
Twilight spoke, "Wow you almost forget the about the strange things that happened not too long ago."
"I know right? I never thought I would ever get to see a spectacular view like this one, now I have."
We stepped our of the container just stopping a few feet away from the cliff. I carefully bent over the cliff to look at the dizzying height. I whistled which created an echo. "Well that is a long way down." I bent back. "Looks like we are not going down that way.".
"Any suggestions?".
Then a thought came to me, "Wait, your a unicorn, correct?", Twilight nodded. "What spells or magic do you know?".
"Oh I forgot to tell you: the three basics of a unicorn are levitation, illumination, and teleportation. Others are kind of experimental now. Why, is there no magic where you come from?".
I looked at Twilight "No, but we do have the technology to keep a lot of us sustained." I looked back at the landscape. "So how does this teleportation of yours exactly work?".
"I just think of the place where we want to go and teleport the mass I want to a location. But there are limits."
"Explain these 'limits'." I looked back.
"Teleporting takes energy: the amount that is taken depends on the distance of the teleportation and the amount of mass that is being teleported".
"Guess we shouldn't do any teleporting just yet."
"Why's that Blake?"
"We don't know where we are supposed to go yet, so teleporting will just lead to the possibility of getting farther from where we want to go. Second you are going to need the energy to keep up with me and fend off anything that may want to have us as a midnight snack."I said.
"Hmm. Good point.".
I looked over to my left and saw a cave at the end of the cliff that had a faint but noticeable light coming from the center. It is hard to tell what is at the end of it though. I pointed to my left and Twilight turned her head in the same direction. "Looks like someone's home" I said.
"Hm I don't know if we should tru-"
Twilight was interrupted by a loud 'RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR!' That broke silence of the night. The sound came from the right hand (or hoof?) side and (I shit you not: I almost shit my pants, don't laugh).
Twilight made a brief scream and I jumped and yelled in fear "WHAT THE FUCK!?".
Suddenly, an ape-like creature, the size of a car, came climbing on the right side of the cliff we were on and looked at us. The creature had a muscular upper body, with four arms and an ape-like face, with a vertically placed mouth and two tiny legs.
"IT LOOKS LIKE WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE! RUN, GO GO GO!", I yelled and out of instinct. I continued "I'll distract it Twilight, you go the cave!"
"Blake no!" She said in worry.
"Just do it!", She hesitantly galloped towards the light in the distant.
I picked up a four-pound rock nearby and threw in the creature's face. Unfortunately, it was like throwing a grain of sand at a person to the beast. The creature looked at me like it was about to say: 'seriously?'. Another bloodthirsty roar came from the beast as soon I made a run for the cave after Twilight. The primate used its four arms for top speed. "FUCK, FUCK, FUCK,...!" I said as it was about to pounce its fleeing victim before a wave of purple light_outlining the beast, sent it flying a few feet back and dazed. I stopped to look back for a second then at Twilight at the mouth of the cave_pointing her glowing horn at the creature.
"Come on I won't let you die. Not here, not now!" she yelled angrily.
They had a 2-second head start to run before creature orientated itself.
~meanwhile~
After the little yellow Hyperion was done hanging out and playing Texas Holdem with his dead biotic and abiotic friends, he decided to go for some fresh air "no lungs? Fuck logic" he thought to himself. He opened his front door while drinking imaginary whiskey and humming 'wubs' when suddenly...
BAM
"Aah!" he yelled as he had a purple quadruplet and white biped, trip and topple onto him out of desperation.
~Back to 1st person~
I and Twilight got up and quickly noted the door we came through.
"Quick! Shut the door!" I yelled. Twilight responded and slamed the door on the beast's arm trying to claw its way in.
My heart started racing as I looked around for something to back away the creature and found a conveniently placed, loose, yard-long metal pole lying on the wall begging to be used. I took the metal pole, with as much force as possible, hit the creature in the face with one end of the metal pole, repeatedly until it stumbled back a few feet with a bloody and bruised face.
Twilight with her adrenaline running through her veins, closed the door and was luckily able to figure out how to lock it shut before the creature launched itself at the door. While the creature was still pounding at the door, Twilight looked at the couch and said: "Hurry help me with this!".
I responded, helping the pony levitate it by taking an end of the couch and sliding it in front of the door. After both of us hyper-ventilated for around thirty seconds, the pounding stopped. I put my ear to the door, "Blake no stay away!", I responded with a "shh!". There was a sound of a beast giving up and running away on the other side of the door.
I scoped the area to find a small room with the walls made of ice, like the interior of an igloo. A big furnace lays just about three meters in front and across from the door we came though. The furnace continues to warm us up as we remain in the room. 'And oh Satan' I thought to myself, as I saw what appears to be dead humans everywhere, placed on couches, against walls, and on the floor as if someone was trying to impersonate them as living. A giant hole in the ceiling, right above the platform (where the furnace is on), reveals the clear night sky.
As I panted between every word, "What the hell wa-" Twilight hit me in the stomach with a frontal hoof (probably deserved that for scaring her) and she hugged me into a bone crushing hug. Sobbing with her face smothered in my chest, she lifted her face up "Don't you do anything stupid like that ever again! I only have met you for like what: fifteen minutes? I almost bucking lost you and you are the kindest person I ever met! Celestia, you are just a colt!" I made a slight blush and and held back a tear at the incredibly touching compliment and concerns (Shut up! I am a sensitive person! God!).
As I rubbed her mane I said in a calm voice, "shh shh shh! Don't cry! Don't cry. Everything is allright."
After she was done releasing her hug and wiping her eyes with her hoof, a sudden robotic voice broke the mood.
"AHEM!"
We both looked at the 4ft., yellow robot with a white stripe going horizontally just over its only eye. It stood on only one wheel and had its arms crossed with the shudder over its eye, acting like its eyebrow, creating a cute, mad expression.
It spoke again"Are you two done making out, cause' I have a guest room right over-"
I spoke out, "WHAT?! NO, We were just attacked and-!"
"Nah, I was just fucking with you.", He stuck a hand out to make a handshake, "I am a CL4p-TP! But you can call me-... WOAHHHH!" he was interrupted by a shockwave of purple outline, which pushed him into an icy wall.
"Ow", As soon as he hit the ground, jumped back onto his one wheel while rubbing his top. "Fuck me up in the tail pipe horsey, can't you take a joke?".
"Not fucking funny! We could've gotten eaten alive by that... thing and all you do is greet us with an insulting joke?!".
I raised a surprised brow at her and she looked back at me.
"WHAT!? You said it first!", she exclaimed.
"Okay, Okay, I'm sorry horsey, but where was I...? Oh yes my nickname is Claptrap and that 'thing' out there is a bullymong named Knuckle Dragger, killed everyone I know!" he said as I wondered how a he had feelings like living animals, but I don't feel the need to question it though at the moment.
"I am a pony and the name's Twilight Sparkle!" she said angrily and calmed down a bit.
I stepped in and said: "My name Blake Williams but you can call me Blake and I am a human"
"Well no shit, anybody that hasn't lost there sanity on this planet are human. In fact they were a dominant species, before this planet turned into a post-apocalyptic shit-hole; almost everyone lost it and started committing raids and cannibalism to each other." He said with an annoying happy tone.
"C-c-cannibalism?" she with widened eyes.
"Meaning when h-h-humans eat each-?" she paused and gagged.
"Yep! I hear human flesh isn't so bad and the best parts are the eyes, though sadly I don't ha-"
"BLLLEEEEEEHHHHHH!"
"...taste buds." as he was covered in vomit.
"Also I have to apologize for the tone of my voice I have had. You see my programers made this my default tone of voice I am actually quite depressed. Though I keep myself going with claptrap and dead bodies to keep me company!". Claptrap said.
'Well that explains it' I thought.
Twilights eye twitched in shock as she just noticed the dead human corpses scattered about. One group of dead clap trap units in particular was gathered around a table as if they were playing poker. "D-d-d-ead corpses? Why do you...? argh! I am gonna need a therapist when I get home!" she said as I put a hand on her mane to confort her.
"Wait a minute Blake, how come their are more members of your own species in this world?", Twilight said.
"I am just wondering that too, but honestly I have no idea why I am thrown into another universe with my species. I guess it so happens to be a really weird coincidence. I don't think it really matters since almost everyone on this planet seems to want to rather eat each other." I said and continued,
"Well you see believe it or not we both come from two different planets or parallel universes (Earth and Equis) and we somehow got teleported through space into that Hyperion metal tin can back there, do you know where we are Claptrap?" I asked.
"We are currently on a glacier in the middle of an ocean on a planet called Pandora, as for how you guys teleporting into the Hyperion crate I don't any explanation to offer, and if you are wondering who Hyperion is, they are one of the big weapon manufacturers that specialize in things like making some pretty sexy guns and furthermore I am one of the products of the company."
"Wait!" I said. "You are Hyperion?".
"Yes, unfortunately we CL4P-TPs are really old models and they killed the product line long ago leaving me the last of my kind and is run by the biggest, fascist, tyrant, and jack ass: Handsome Jack." Claptrap continued
Twilight intervened "Handsome Jack?"
"Yes, just a couple years ago he became an overnight trillion-are, he came to Pandora with the promise of brining peace to this place but his his biggest reason is to uncover the 'Second Vault'.".
"What things did he do that was so bad?"
"So many: he wiped out entire towns full of innocent men, women, and children with no right to do so what so ever and the remaining survivors were either tortured then executed for fun, sent to starve in desolate areas, or locked up in concentration camps. Nobody is spared when he is around: this one time Jack took a spoon and gouged a man's eyes out right in front of his own children, while Handsome Jack just laughs."
"T-t-thats horr-rible." Twilight said with a horrified look and sighed. "Why do I even ask?".
"Also you mentioned something a while ago about a 'Second Vault'." I asked.
"Allow me to explain"
"We are all ears." I said in response.
"Before the opening of the first Vault, it's existence was just a rumor, but that rumor spread all across galaxy. When the news spread, it caught the attention of some crazy-ass mother fuckers aka Vault hunters. Vault hunters, from all over, came to Pandora and hoped to access the treasures and secrets that came from the vault. Four lucky-ass Vault hunters in particular, found and put the pieces of the Vault key together and struck the jackpot, but were disappointed to see a blood thirsty one-eyed pussy-monster with tentacles at the end of the Journey. However, the real reward soon came later: an explosion of a priceless element: eridium made its appearance all over Pandora_ attracting greedy eyes especially Handsome Jack."
"So that's where he got his Trillions I assume.", I interrupted.
"Yep.", the yellow robot responded.
"What about the second one?" Twilight asked.
"Allow me to continue: after the explosion of eridum, the Ugly Jackass lied about and took the credit of opening the Vault, and slaying the beast within."
"What happened to the guys who opened the Vault?" I said.
"I am not sure what happened to them, but they most likely got hunted down by Hyperion, just like any other who follows the call of the newer Vault's loot.".
'Well that is a downer. This ugly jackass sounds more dangerous than I thought.' I thought to my self.
I looked at Twilight and sighed as I continued my thought 'I didn't want to do this earlier but it is the only way. Better tell her.'.
Before I wanted to tell her my thought I looked at Claptrap, "Do you know what what would happen if this new Vault would do if opened?".
"No only Jack knows, but some rumors suggest that it will open a rift of some sort to where you like." Claptrap said.
"It looks like we are going to need to become-" I interrupted myself with a heavy sigh while tightening my fists in fear.
I was about to say it when Twilight looked back at me "No Blake, If we are going to go after the Vault we will have to go against an all powerful ruler who possibly and most-likely killed four highly experienced Vault hunters! What makes you think us two have a chance against take on him?!.".
"I know we have a very apparent and slim chance of getting to the Vault, but if we want to get to our own worlds then we are left with no choice! We have to work together to get there Twilight!". I said but then a flash back came to me back from my home world.
My fear gradually turned into hate and fury as I was reminded of what Jack who was like. The high school in my past had a lot of enemies and bullies who thought they were above the law. Who thought they could get run the school, who thought they could hurt whoever to get what they want. I unlike other average kids, I barely feared my enemies or bullies, in fact I had this half-a-foot-taller-than-me, smug, asshole named Kyle who tried to jump me behind school with his two fuck-buddies. He had a pocket knife to intimidate and make everyone become his bitch, I only showed a blank stare full of anger, hate, death. His pathetic ghetto-stance didn't make me feel intimidated in the slightest since I did had some hand-eye coordination from playing video games, studied some self-defense on the History channel, and had some physical experience with Martial Arts. He lunged at me with his knife at my stomach, then I quickly held the arm with the knife with the 'Wrist Grip' which made him drop his knife and knocked him out cold with a good roundhouse kick to the left temple. I walked the rest of the way home with a great sense of pride and a long smirk expression on my face. I am not very experienced with martial arts, but managed to pull the simple roundhouse kick and wrist grip like natural.
"It is not just about getting home Twilight.". I responded with a slightly cold tone.
"Huh?" She said.
"It is about getting that ugly son of bitch kicked of his throne and getting his head on a pike." I said with an even more cold but angry tone.
"What?!" said with a disgusted and surprised look.
"He is responsible for the death of millions of innocent (and possibly billions) men, women, children..." I said while holding back a tear and continuing, "...and I refuse to let him or anyone for that matter do such a sickening thing like that! No matter the danger.".
"Bu-" I cut her off. "I know I may seem a bit (or a lot) blindly stubborn about it but it is the moral decision and besides he is the main one who is in the way of possibly getting back!".
Twilight closed her eyes to digest all the thoughts I had given her. She looked back at her own past, at how her country was a very peaceful and respected land with no war like ever, she told me. After fives seconds of her initial deep breath, she opened her eyes and surprisingly, had the look determination and anger in her eyes. Not as seemingly strong as mine, but it was strong enough to make her say, "Alright..." She said in defeat.
"...let's go find this piece of shit and rip his spine out!" she noticed her vulgar, brutal, and cold tone, covered her mouth with two frontal hooves, released it, and said "Oh sorry, too much?" She blushed.
I only responded with surprised opened eyes and a raised, worried brow. 'I feel like I have ruined a good kids show!' I thought. "Remind me to never piss you off!."
"Thanks!"
Claptrap jumped in to the conversation with his hands on his personified hips, "Well, well, well it looks like we have a couple of..."
"...Vault hunters I know" I finished.
"Oooh! That reminds me!" Claptrap said as he took out two small devices from his metaphorical back pocket which appeared to be earbud-sized, black ear pieces and offered them with his arm.
"What are those?" I asked.
"These babies here are the newest, in compact Echo Net Communication better to carry than those bigger ones, so consider yourselves lucky!"
"Echo Net?" Twilight asked.
"Echo Net is what allows anyone with an Echo Net Communication device to contact one another." Claptrap responded.
"I guess these can come in handy!" I said with excitement.
"Oh that's not all these can do: it comes with a heads up display_complete with a minimap, write down your pathetic lives in the notes, set a place you want to go and fuck each other, and allows you to digitally store up to six items like guns, swords, make-up, sex toys, and more.", I glared angrily at him in response,
"Keep it together.", I thought as I resisted the urge to rip his annoying voice out.
"Heads up display? Minimap? Digitally? What?" Twilight said in confusion.
"Oh!" Twilight turned her head at me as I continued explaining, "Well from my home planet heads up display (or HUD for short) is a legible screen front of you that gives you info depending what purpose it has. This HUD apparently in this case is military, which probably displays stuff like the amount of health you have, the amount of ammo you have, etcetera. The minimap is apart of that HUD and shows a small map of the area you are in, generally to the side or a small corner. When he means 'digitally' I think it means we can take any item and shrink it to where it can fit in a memory storage of our ear piece.".
"How do you know all this?" Twilight asked with a suspicious squint.
"On my home planet, we have very similar terminology when it comes to technology, video games, and what not. Why, is there none of these where you come from?" I said.
"We do, it is just that I haven't gotten a chance at the arcade machines in Ponyville, and these things you mentioned sound much more advance than our video game tech.".
We both turned to the two devices. I took one of the ear pieces and was able to put it on my ear conformably because it was adjustable. Even though it was made for humans, Twilight was able to use her magic and adjusted it to her likings.
A thought of mine came up and asked, "Wait these are the newest versions? How were you able to get such new tech?".
"Oh! well it is kind of a secret, but I can tell you I did NOT loot it from the dead Hyperion soldiers.", Claptrap.
Twilight's eye twitched again and I thought with disgust, 'Somehow I believe he's lying though Hyperion doesn't deserve respect for what it has done.'.
The second we got the ear pieces adjusted, I was presented with what appears to be a health bar on the bottom left of my screen and a map on the top right, complete with a compass surrounding the map. "Woah!" was our response as we moved our heads back a bit in astonishment. "Twilight are you seeing what I am seeing?" I said.
"Yeah, but I also wonder why the minimap on the top right isn't all sketched out." Twilight said.
"The system will only layout and remember the parts of the map you have been.", Claptrap explained.
"That is rather an unnecessary inconvenience." I said.
"Oh well, just gotta roll with the fucks I don't give.". Claptrap said before Twilight rolled her eyes in response.
"Whatever,...!" I said with annoyance, "Anyway do you know anywhere we should go for now?".
"I was thinking about to go to this town called 'Sanctuary' alone, but since I have some Vault hunters to help escort me, I don't have to!" Claptrap said.
"Where is this 'Sanctuary'?". I said.
"To get there, we are going to need my boat to get to the mainland..." Claptrap was cut off.
"Great so lets get there and lets go!". Twilight said.
"...and it is not going to be easy to get there." Claptrap said.
"Why's that?" she asked.
"It has been stolen by a Ripper-clan Bandit leader named 'Captain Flynt', I used to be his favorite 'torture doll' a few months ago. We used to play games like 'dodge the blowtorch' and 'don't get dunked into the pool of acid'! I was really good at the first one!".
"WHAT?! Oh fuck, looks like we need to kill this son-of-a-bitch to get off this island!" I clench my fists together and Twilight sighed heavily.
"Well any who, I keep a gun in the cabinet over there..." Claptrap pointed to his left, "... but in here we should be pretty-". The silence was suddenly shattered when a bullymong suddenly crashed onto the platform behind Claptrap below the gaping hole above. We both jumped and almost shit my pants... again. The creature had the injuries as if a metal pole had bashed his face in, 'Knuckle Dragger' I thought to myself.
The creature roared and made a dash for Claptrap. It grabbed him by his wheel with on of its arms and used another two arms to climb half way of the metal chimney for the furnace. With Claptrap hanging upside-down by his wheel, the creature used the last arm to pull out the robot's only eye from its socket. "AHHH MY EYE!" Claptrap said before the bullymong dropped Claptrap onto the ground face first. To our surprise and fortune, the creature escaped through the hole in the ceiling with the eye.
"Good he's gone" I said as my took a moment to breath. "Where did you say where the gun was?". In response Claptrap pointed over to the cabinet over to my left.
"What in Celestia is a gun?" Twilight said as I ran over to the cabinet.
I opened the cabinet to first find an odd-looking revolver (classy-looking too I have to honestly say) with two different sized metallic barrels. It's all almost black except for the handle was slightly a brighter red-wooden texture and in cursive gold was 'tattooed' on the side of the barrel was 'Sally'. I am not really experienced with any guns besides the movies, video games, and video demonstrations. If I remembered American history correctly it looks like the LeMat revolver from the American Civil War which held 9 .42 calibre rounds and and one 16 gauge shotgun shell as a secondary.
"What kind of revolver is this?" I asked.
"That is a gun made by the Jakobs manufacture. The recoil those guns make is really shitty but the firepower and classy looks are what makes your dick hard! That one in particular can hold up to nine 357. magnum rounds and one 12 gauge shotgun shell at a time." Claptrap said.
Remembering Twilight is still on a cliffhanger, I turned to her, "Well to not leave you confused Twilight, but you never heard of a gun where you come from?".
Twilight nodded with a 'no'.
"What weapons does your national military use anyway?" I asked
"We mostly use stuff like arrows, swords, and magic. I believe they are currently experimenting on something called a 'musket'.".
"Muskets? Well, be blown away at how far just being able to ignite a propellent aka. gunpowder will take that concept of being able to take out someone or somepony with the press of a trigger from a distance. Be hold." I held up the revolver and pointed at it to demonstate.
"How does it work?" She asked.
"Tell me Twilight, what do you know about how the muskets in your world work?"
"Well, according to what I have read so far, somepony had the idea to make small metal ball in a long barrel to go so fast, that it can penetrate a target, using the force of the ignited propellant you call 'gunpowder'."
"And that Twilight..." I pointed at Twilight, "...is exactly what a gun like this does, except that it takes that idea and moves countless steps ahead!" I said as I used my free hand to make gestures.
"What do you mean by that?" said intrigued.
I took a .357 bullet from the cabinet and put in the palm of my hand and showed it to Twilight. "Instead of just pushing gunpowder and a metal ball down a barrel. We put in all into a small piece of metal called a bullet.".
"That little thing?" She said with a raised brow.
"Don't let the size of this fool you. This one of the most powerful types of bullets ever invented also known as magnum rounds. There are two main parts to a bullet, the casing (which holds the gunpowder)..." I pointed to the casing "...and the part that does the real damage (the actual bullet)." I pointed to the tip of the bullet. "This is what is called the primer..." I showed the back of the bullet to her. "...and when this thing called the 'hammer'..." I pointed to the hammer of the Jakobs pistol. "...is released and hits the primer,..." I pulled the 'hammer' of the empty gun and pulled the trigger to demonstrate, "....it ignites the gunpowder in the casing here..." I pointed to the casing once more. "...it then has nowhere to go except toward the exit of the barrel and pushes the lethal part out at an incredible speed..."I said as I ran my finger along the barrel to show an imaginary bullet. "...and to significantly increase accuracy and precision, the interior of the barrel is shaped to make the bullet spin as it exits the barrel.".
"Wow Blake, that was surprisingly clever and interesting at how you taught how that works, do you ever consider being a teacher one day?" she said after she had her jaw drop from the information that was given.
"Thanks Twilight I may consider, but anyways this is just one of the many types of bullets and guns you can find or make!"
"What other types are there?" she asked.
"Oh man, there are sure too many others to cover, but I'll tell you about the other type of ammunition this Jakobs can use."
"Like what?" She asked.
"As you can already tell, this gun has two different sized barrels one for magnum rounds and one for 12 gauge buckshot shotgun shells.".
"Shotgun shells?".
I took a 12 gauge from the cabinet "Instead of shooting one bullet at a time, shotgun shells, when ignited shootout multiple projectiles depending on the type of shotgun shell. In this case, the most standard of all shotgun shells (buckshot rounds) will shootout a number of pellets at once, causing wide range damage to what or who is foolish enough to stand in the way of the barrel of the shotgun. The range any shotgun depends on the size of the barrel and muzzles but the best result of any buckshot shotgun is close range. So it is like the muskets that you are experimenting on except they shoot out multiple metal balls in random given directions." I finished.
"OMC, how do you know all this?" she asked.
"Well to be honest I have never used guns before and this is my first try." I made a guilty chuckle.
Twilight's eyes shot open, "WHAT!? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!?", Twilight yelled and continued "Like all weapons they are dangerous in the hoov- er hands of an inexperience pony -er person and you could really hurt yourself or somepony or person if you don't have experience!"
"Hey, don't get so worked and... um... vulgarized-up about it! And besides I think I have played, watched, and read enough video games, movies, demonstration videos, and anatomy of them to handle guns properly. Besides there is a first time for everything right?". I said as I put my hands up in defence.
Twilight sighed "I guess you are right, sorry about the outburst!"
"That's alright, I appreciate the concerns Twilight but I think it is about time I taught you how to use it before we head out." Twilight nodded and said "Okay teach me how to use it.".
"I am going to be holding on to this when we head out and find Knuckle Dragger, but just incase you happen to have yourself alone with it...!" I gave the gun to Twilight and she levitated it. "Okay lets start on how to load in ammunition or also known as reloading, but not real ones, just imaginary, just to be safe.". I pointed to the little button that opened the revolver to reveal the shell holders and said "See that little button right here?" She nodded. "Okay now push it." Everything in front of the firing pin dropped and hung by a hing. "See, that is where you load the magnum rounds..." I pointed to the .357-sized holders. "and that is where you put in the shotgun shell." I pointed to the bigger barrel. "Okay I think I have gotten the reloading part down." She said as she practiced opening and closing the gun to get the hang of it.
"Now next is firing, and like I said earlier you..." I pointed to the hammer, "...pull back this thing called the 'hammer' and then pull the trigger..." I pointed at the trigger. She did this process five times to make it feel natural. "Now I want you to know that guns will usually make a kickback force every time you fire called recoil." I put my put my hand on the barrel to simulate, "Now since this is a magnum, the kickback can hurt you if you don't hold it properly. Fire again to let me simulate." She fired and I pushed the back and up like how a gun would react briefly after the shot. "Be sure to hold it down tightly when you fire." She gulped in fear but she seemed to get the hang of it. "Now since this has a secondary feature I want you to know to to switch between the two firing modes." I pointed to the tip of the hammer. "Now bend the tip of the hammer back right here, pull back, and fire!" She obeyed. "Good now do each mode five times or until you are confident enough to handle it".
After her practice of the two firing modes I continued to the next part, "Now for the next part: Aiming." I pointed to the iron sights. "Now usually, the guns you come across will have a wide range of scopes and sights on them to make hitting shit easier. For this one in particular is good enough, just be sure to align the metal thing sticking out on the edge of the barrel in between these two closest to you eye. When you are aligning make sure the three metal sights are parallel and the one at the edge of the barrel is equidistant from the two other ones and you got yourself a target." She obeyed and I made sure by looking at the other end of the barrel. "Now aim at my pupil." It was a perfect alignment. "Perfect now shoot!" She pulled down the hammer and took a shot at my eye. "Perfect, I think you may be ready!" the unicorn smiled with determination. "Now just work on reloading speed, landing shots, and cock-back speed and you'll be a good shooter in no time, but there is still a lot to learn about handling other types of weapons!", I said while patting her head and taking back the gun.
"Now I know there is only one gun at the moment but I would like you to support me with any spell or magic that might help, okay?" she nodded then I turned to the cabinet to find two, empty, identical, leather bandoliers slash weapon holsters that seemed to be able to hold a variety of equipment in them including a pistol holster, a rifle holster, grenade pouches, and a place for a combat knife. "Badass." I said.
"Huh?" Twilight said
"It's a term for 'awesome' or 'cool' except in my personal opinion 'cooler' term to use!". Twilight rolled her eyes in response.
I took one of the leather holsters and wrapped it around the left shoulder and right hip like a belt. Leaving the rifle holster on my back and the pistol holster at my waste with the grenade pouch on my left shoulder and a knife holder just below it.
I helped with Twilight with her's and it fitted perfectly around her hip and shoulder and patted her on the back after I was done. I searched the cabinet for other things and found 3 empty speed reloaders for the Jakobs, 40 .357-rounds, and 10 12-gauge shotgun shells. Claptrap later told us that the devices on our ears can digitally store ammo and extra grenades in it so I organized the ammo into the speed loaders and put the rest in my ammo storage device.
I looked further to find a (I shit you not) a mother-fucking, jet-black tomahawk with a rubber grip and a black blade (carbon-fiber maybe?) with several intentional holes in it. I didn't physically have a place for the sucker, so I put in my digital storage, and took it out repeatedly to practice my melee and ranged attacks with it. Twilight looked impressed looking at my form. She was also practicing with her magic and what not.
We looked around Claptrap's place to find yellow hyperion crates that had even more ammo for the gun we have and for other guns we don't have. Everywhere there was ammo and magazines flying out the ass, in the lockers, in cardboard boxes, in a dumpster, even in a fucking toilet, so I had to wash those in a sink. I never found anymore speed reloaders for the Jakobs I have, but I did get more ammo for the magnum and shotgun. I gave some ammo to Twilight for her to hold on to just incase but I held onto all the speed reloaders.
We practiced communicating with each other with our Echo devices and took a look at our Echo screens. It was similar to a smartphone and Twilight said she would find it useful for taking notes and entertainment purposes such as reading.
After getting prepped to go kick Knuckle Dragger's ass, I asked the poor blinded robot, "So Clappy, do you know any place we can stay for the night?".
"After we get my eye back from Knuckle Dragger, we'll head out the town of 'Liars Burg'. I know a pal of mine who can fix me up... allon-sy!"
After bumping into a wall a dozen times he went through a Claptrap-sized door and was able to open the gate on the other side. We walked in the other room and noticed a hyperion machine on the right with a holographic projection of the word 'Fast-travel'.
"What is that on the right?" Twilight said.
"That is a fast-travel station but it will only teleport you to the ones that you have already been through."
"Seriously, another inconvenience?" she said.
Another door in front of us was open already and led to the out the back.
"You ready Twilight?" I said as I loaded my Jakobs with a fresh mag and a nice spin to finish it.
"Lets get this over with!" She said as her horn glowed.
"How far is Liars Burg from here Clappy?" I asked.
"It is just a half-a-mile north from here."
"Alright Twilight, stay behind me and help escort Claptrap. Make sure he doesn't bump into anything!" I said as I cocked my magnum. "Stick close".
When we were out the back door, we came across a fairly wide, single path. A metal guard rail that stood on the edge of the cliff on the right which brought me some confort knowing I won't likely fall to my death. On the other side of the trail stood a tall wall of ice that hung over us like big ocean wave. Icicles hanged from the top of the big wave of ice.
After walking carefully for what seemed like ten minutes, a sudden loud thump came from behind. In the blink of an eye I turned my pistol to find a bullymong, not Knuckle Dragger but it seemed to be a smaller yet dangerous version of it.
"Get down!" I said. Twilight then tackled Claptrap to the ground giving me a good target.
"AAAAAAAAAAAARRRR-",
BANG, It's roar ended with a perfect shot to the face, killing it instantly.
The recoil from the magnum hurt my shoulders a little like an arm-weight has pushed it, but I knew I would get used to the pain eventually.
"We have to hurry, that noise will attract more of them!" I said.
After 5 more minutes of running, we came across a wide open area, surrounded by high walls of scrap piles, rock, and ice. A natural ramp of rock let to a hyperion structure.
There were pillars of ice on the walls that had bullymong sized holes on top of them. 'Bullymong nests, shit!' I presumed.
"LOOK OUT!" Twilight said as she used her own body to push me out of the way of a car flying at me and then exploded.
I groaned as we both got up on our legs and hooves. "What the hell was-" I was interrupted by the sight of the bullymong sitting on top the Hyperion structure, 12 'o' clock. "Knuckle Dragger!".
'This is gonna hurt.' I thought to myself.
"BULLYMONGS!" Claptrap yelled.
I was about to draw my gun at KD when I caught another sneaky charging bullymong in my peripheral vision on my left, 9 'o' clock. I reacted quickly enough to materialize a tomahawk in my right hand and throw it at the creatures face. I was surprised at my self when I smirked psychotically as I got satisfaction saw brains pouring and blood squirting out of its face on the ground.
Twilight, just in time, was able to put up a protective barrier behind me, when another bullymong tried jump on me, 2 'o' clock. "I got your back! Don't let your guard down!" she said.
After the shield dissipated, I cocked the gun and hip-fired the stunned attacker in the chest. With my left hand I cocked the magnum in a split-second then with one hand, I turned my gun to another bullymong clinging to a wall, 7 'o' clock. I fired a shot in its eye and it fell to the ground face first, but unfortunately I was caught off guard by a punch in the stomach, coming from 10 'o' clock that sent me flying a few feet backwards. Still having the gun gripped tightly in my hands, I looked up in pain at the same bullymong making a pounce on the fallen victim. Suddenly the creature fell face first to reveal a tomahawk lodged in its back, making fatal bloody wound in its wake.
Behind the dead bullymong, stood a shocked purple pony with a hoof on her mouth and a twitchy eye. Then unexpectedly, her big irises were smaller and made a creepy psychotic laugh. She then made a wide grin with her teeth closed and showing. She then saw a bullymong crawling out a nest directly behind me. Keeping her crazed smile she immediately levitated a flat glass-like piece of ice and sent it flying_decapitating it before it was able to escape its nest. Still stuck to the wall, the loose head slid across the ice and landed in my lap.
I don't mind watching gory movies, but this takes it way too far. I didn't feel so good and threw up on the head after I quickly stood up. I looked up to see Knuckle Dragger jumping high in the air and landing a few feet in front of me. I pointed the gun at him with my right hand but he backed then back-handed the gun, missing a shot on him and sending the gun flying a couple yards.
'Smart creature' I thought before KD roared and grabbed me by the neck with his right hand and lifting me up. Just when I thought I would get choked to death, a purple aura sent both of us flying towards Twilight with the creature at Twilight's hooves. With a cold, angry expression on her face, she levitated the gun with the shotgun shell in it readied to fire.
She cocked the gun back and put the barrel inside the creatures mouth.
"Eat this instead you fucker!" she said before blowing the creature's head off_showering Twilight with blood and chunks of brain.
My jaw dropped when I saw her covered in entrails and a smoking gun to the defeated bullymong.
I got up with a slight pain in my back and walked over to the unicorn to help her, "Sorry you had to do that, thanks for saving my life though!"
"Your welcome Blake." She sighed and added, "Both of us are going to go crazy after all this, aren't we...?"
"I never have experienced real intense violence before, but we'll get used to it..." I sighed "I hope".
"I hope your right...", she said as I took the gun back and reloaded the gun with my loose ammo. "..I am going to need a long shower and a therapist when we get to Liars Burg.". She said.
"I am glad you aren't so too traumatized even though you can be bit scary at sometimes." I said as I kneeled to put an arm on her back to confort her.
"Sorry, I can get really crazy when I am really desperate.".
"Yeah, but at least you saved my life doing it... and that is something. Sometimes crazy can be a good thing."
"Thanks, I appreciate the support!" She smiled.
"I don't really know Pandora, but at least from what I see, it is going to be a dangerous shit-hole. We need to stay strong and work together!" I put both hands on her shoulders to reassure, "Okay?".
In response she looked up at me with a now-determined look, "Let's get the fuck off this glacier and kick some ass.".
I smiled and patted her, "Thats the badass Twilight Sparkle I know!", she chuckled in response.
"Are you guys done fucking with each other? Let's get my fucking eye and go!" Claptrap impatiently said as he was waiting near the entrance to the hyperion structure.
"Oh yeah, almost forgot the eye!" I said before I searched Knuckle Draggers corpse for the eye. I found it on his chest and put it in my digital inventory.
We both ignored Claptrap's impatience and stopped at a door leading inside the structure.
"Now how do we get in this piece of shit?" Twilight said.
I leaned in to inspect the door and beside the yellow and white metal door was a keypad.
"Looks like we are going to need a-"
BANG!
I jumped as soon I saw the door open from a bullet in the keypad. I turned around to see my gun floating in purple with smoke coming out.
"...bullet?" Twilight finished.
"Thanks Twilight." I said when I got my gun back.
We entered the room with my gun pointed and ready for anything. Once it was all clear I holstered my weapon and scoped the room out. We found it noticeably hard to stand on since it is not properly leveled. It was like the room we woke up in, except this one had two ways in and out, but what really stood out was an unopened red and yellow crate in the center of the room, like the one that was opened in the first room, but it had two blinking green lights on it!
"Wonder whats in this crate." I said as we stood in front.
"I hope it is a weapon I get to use!", she said with excitement.
"Let's see!", I pushed the button on the crate and it came to life with a complex and colorful opening. Once finished, it revealed what appears to be some-kind of shotgun, a pistol, and of course more ammo for the shotguns, pistols, and other guns than I would really need, 'Seriously what is with the ridiculous amounts of ammo lying around? I could probably make a house out of the metal I am getting.' I thought. The shotgun appeared to be pump-action and it had a word on the side, 'Tediore', it had a greenish-blue and what strikes me odd it how it doesn't seem to have a place to put a shotgun round in, 'strange' I thought.
"Hey Claptrap, what do you know about 'Tediore'?
"Tediore is a company that is known mostly for their cheap and 'interesting' guns.".
"What do you mean interesting?". I replied
"All Tediore act like grenades when you need or want to reload them and a new Tediore gun materializes In your hands as long as you have the ammo in your Echo device."
"Your serious right?" I asked with concern.
"Yes, but don't worry, they only do that when you push the button those types of weapons, the more ammo in your discarded gun, the better the explosion!".
"I don't know how in hell that would fucking work, but..." I shrugged my shoulders, "who gives a fuck?".
I reloaded my Jakobs and put the gun in my holster. I took the shotgun and holstered it onto my back.
"Now what do we have for this other guy?" I said as I took a closer inspection of the pistol, It appeared to be some sort of semi-auto white and blue pistol with the word 'Maliwan' on the side. It had a little switch on the side and I turned it to find it had glowing orange lights on it.
"What is 'Maliwan?' " I said as I looked at the gun in astonishment.
"'Maliwan is a company that makes elemental weaponry. When you want to literally melt someone's face off, grab a Maliwan! There are four types of elements you can put into any weapon here: fire, shock, acid, and slag!".
"That sounds rather painful to whatever somepon- er someone is shot by one." Twilight said.
"Yeah, but they sound pretty useful for certain situations and by the look of this gun, it is probably fire." I said as I took out the magazine out from the bottom of the gun. It made a beep as I press it and the glow faded. The magazine clip was full of 12 9mm rounds.
"Strange, this somehow converts 9mm ammunition into..." I put the mag back in the gun and fired it at the wall making a small fire ball_engulfing apart of the wall in a 1-second flame_leaving a black flint in its wake, "...fire, fucking awesome.".
I flipped the gun and pointed the grip of the gun towards twilight, "Now listen Twilight, I want you to have this gun, but I want to discuss that this gun is probably semi-automatic."
"Semi-automatic?"
"Meaning, that you don't have to cock back a hammer every time between each shot, the recoil force of the gun does that for you, but you still have to ready the weapon once you have no more bullets in the chamber.", she dropped her jaw in amazement and reloaded the gun like I showed her.
"There are also fully-automatics aka machine guns out there that use the recoil energy to fire continuously when the trigger is held down and they are my favorite!"
"Oh my fucking Celestia, I can't wait to see what other types of weapons this place has!" Twilight said looking dumbstruck.
"I think you'd be surprised at how powerful the other types I haven't told you about." I said as we took the ammo we had found here and headed for the unopened huge metal door.
I looked at Twilight again, "You know how to use that weapon like I told you, right?".
"Yes, I just reload, aim, point, shoot, and kill."
"Good!" I said as Twilight cocked the gun and held it out with her magic. I took out the shotgun off my back and pumped it with one hand and held it with both hands ready.
"Claptrap, you think you can hack it open?" I asked
"Well no shit I can!" He said as he opened the gate with the console to the right of it. 'I wonder how he does that without his eye.' I thought to myself.
The door opened out-downwards to reveal a cliff 20 ft away from us that over looked a town a hundred feet below it.
"That must be Liars Burg ahead." I said.
We crouched towards the edge of the cliff to get a view of the town without being noticed. With a good eye I got to see the entire town, most of it looked down and had buildings covered in ice and snow. The town had some working neon lights on buildings and in the front of it stood a closed gate. Inside the town were people walking around, sitting around camp fires with firearms on them.
"I count at least seven in the town, it looks like they are not aware of us... yet."I stopped Twilight as she was a about to move forward, "Not sure if they are friendly or not. Stick close." I looked at the front gate of the town. "Do you think you can teleport us right in front of that gate right there?" I pointed.
"It looks easy." She said then we were engulfed in a bright light. Next thing we knew we were at the front gate.
We can hear conversations as we crouched near the gate, "Shhh!" I said to Claptrap and Twilight as we stopped to listen,
"Flynt, sure were right when he said taking over Liars Burg was a piece of human flesh!"
"Sure was, easiest $900 bucks I made, gotta a nice Maliwan from that machine over there."
"Dammit!" I whispered "Sounds like Bandits just recently raided the town!"
"What do we do?" Twilight whispered.
I carefully jumped on top of a short pile of ice and carefully got a look over the front wall and at the gathering. The bandits wore all similar styled clothing with helmets and masks covering there heads and faces with dirty looking clothing. They didn't appear to have anything besides pistols on their sides."I count again at least seven guys, four guys sitting around a camp fire, 2 sitting at a table, and one leaning against a wall. All pistols."
I looked for an opening in the wall and I saw a crawl-space hole. It led into a building on the left.
I looked at Twilight, "Okay you stay here and ready your weapon, I am going to try to sneak into that building on the left and give the little party a 'birthday present' if you know what I mean. Then you incinerate anybody you see coming into view, got it?"
"Are you sure you are going to be fine?", Twilight said pulling back her pistol.
"Just wait for the explosion and you lay down some support!"
Twilight sighed, "Okay then, just be careful alright.".
I gave a nod and quietly crawled through the icy crawl space into some sort of metal air duct. I stopped when I came a across a metal lid screwed on, fortunately it had an arm-sized hole for me and was in a small maintenance room. I picked up a screwdriver from the ground and unscrewed the lid off. I am in, 'Bingo' I thought.
I private messaged to Twilight "Okay I am in do you hear me, over?" I whispered
"I hear you, nobody appears aware yet, over!." Twilight 'Echoed' back.
"Copy that, over."
"What?"
I sighed, "It means I hear you, over."
"Copy that, over.".
I crouched my way to the door without making a noise. I saw a shattered mirror on my right and took a piece of it. I slid it under the door to see what or who is on the other side. I 'Echoed' to Twilight again,
"I see another hostile in the next room_facing a window_looking at the gathering,..." I looked for anybody else in the room and there were none, "...I think I got this, hold on, over." I materialized my tomahawk in my right hand and quietly opened the metal door without making a noise to take a peak at my first victim.
On a table on my right I found some loose barbed wire and some gloves on a table next to me. 'Well this is going to be brutal' I thought to myself.
meanwhile
"...and then he said "Oh please don't kill me, I have children!" before I stomped on his head." Bloodskag the bandit said at the camp fire then everyone at the circle laughed in response.
"You sure did cook his internal organs pretty fucking well." said Rapier, another bandit as he enjoyed his heart burger.
Another bandit named Leadhead looked at his supposed friend named Organtrail coming out of a building in front of him, "Hey Organtrail,..." he said in a mocking tone, "...you come back for more cocksucking?"
Orgaintrail stood silent and kept walking towards the circle.
"HEY! What the fuck is with the silent treatment all of the sudden? You got a cock shoved down your throat?" said another bandit at the camp fire named Rakkbrain then the group laughed.
Saying nothing Organtrail threw a shotgun in front of Rackbrain. Rackbrain picked up the shotgun, "Where did you get a 'Tediore' are you fucking poo-"
BAM!
He was interrupted when Organtrail took out a revolver and shot a bandit in the face leaning next to a wall in the blink of an eye.
"ORGANTRAIL! WHAT THE FU-!"
Back to me.
BOOM!
Off the explosive shotgun went tearing off limbs and making fatal burns to all the four bandits at the fire.
The two guys at the table turned and jumped to see what I have done, "ORGANTRAIL! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE YOU FUCKE-". The remaining bandits were suddenly cut off by a barrage of fire balls_burning them alive as they screamed in pain.
"Just killing you guys." I responded with a smile as I removed my disguise.
I looked over to Twilight and yelled, "Nice job Twilight! Hurry get over to me.".
She trotted over the wall with a smile and towards me with her floating gun following her.
She stopped in front of me, "You know, after my first literal bloodbath and some deep thinking, I have gotten used to burning things alive. This gun really kick ass!". She said.
"I think I have also gotten used to it after I choked someone to death with a wire."
"Cool! You should teach me how to do that." she said.
'What have I done?' I thought.
"GET YOUR GUNS READY BITCHES, WE GOT SOME INTRUDERS TO BEND OVER AND FUCK!" a bandit said in the distance. We saw at least five bandits coming out of a building straight ahead ready to fire at us before Twilight laid down a one-way shield. After the bullets of their pistols went off we quickly ran over to a cement blockade and hid behind it. Touching a building on the right side of the blockade I hatched an idea.
"Twilight go around this building here and surprise them from the right, I'll lay down covering fire!"
Two more bandits went around the building on the right to flank us, but Twilight was reactant enough to set them a blaze with a barrage of shots. Twilight then reloaded gun and quickly took a look around the corner from where the two hostiles have come from.
I was busy blindingly firing my shotgun over the piece of cover and fatally blowing off an entire bandit arm off in the process. Another bandit went up to my piece of cover and held a pistol over the cover. I quickly grabbed the wrist and broke it over the blockade causing his bone to stick out. I used his body as a shield with my left as I took out my magnum with my right. With my human shield I peaked over cover slightly to get a good view of the hostiles. I saw only four left behind some dumpsters, corners, and rocks.
One bandit behind a dumpster came out behind cover and managed to hit my human shield instead in the back. I returned the favor with a shot to the man's right eye. Two of them were suddenly incinerated to death by a couple rounds from Twilight's flanking position. Noticing that my human shield was still alive, I ended him with tomahawk to his back. The two remaining bandits turned their attention to Twilight's position. With this I got out of cover and threw a cooked shotgun over to their side of their cover.
BOOM!
Surprisingly, one of the two survived barely with both his legs blown off.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!", He screamed in pain as his legs were bleeding out.
Twilight and I walked over and met near the wounded bandit. With a right hand, I held out my revolver and readied it to execute. I noticed that the bandit looked like he was the squad leader of this raid_considering the fancy bloody captain hat he has.
With his last few moments he slowly put out his middle finger and siad, "F-fuck you and your fucking hor-!"
BANG!
The .357 blew off his right middle finger and made his head explode, making it stain the snow nearby red.
"...and fuck you too!" Twilight said before spitting on the corpse.
Next Chapter: 2 Hunter,Scholar,Gentleman Estimated time remaining: 5 Hours, 25 MinutesAuthor's Notes:
This is my first fanfic, I just wanted to do a nice borderlands 2 fanfic because I know some (or a lot) of you can get tired of Fallout crossovers and well: I felt like it. I hope you have enjoyed it, leave me a first impressions and don't be afraid to criticize. :) I decided to release this when I finished a lot of it so you won't be left on any cliffhangers for a while.
