A Few More Good Stallions.
Chapter 66: At this exact same time... aw hell. No really. Hell!
Previous Chapter Next ChapterNiko's POV
"Hello! Guard! When do I get a bathroom break?" I asked the man keeping me in my cell. He didn't answer me. I'm still kinda confused about how all the forces of hell destroyed our worlds and took everyone prisoner. Then the guard decided to answer me.
"The scanners say you don't need to pee Niko."
"Well not for me. For my buddy here." I pointed to David who was upside down in his chains. They... did that on purpose.
"Upside down prisoner has to pee!" he shouted. Our cell was different from all the others. We were the only cell up here because we were going to be Iron's go to guys for a human shield when Grimm does arrive.
"Let him go." He said on his radio. One of the guards in the control room released the locks and let him leave closing the door behind him. I wasn't shackled because I didn't back sass Cold Iron. David... well he's a fucking moron! Oh Grimm... if you ever decided to come crashing through the ceiling now would be the appropriate time.
(CRASH) Just then he fell through the ceiling while wrestling Iron.
"Give up Anthony!" he yelled delivering a swift blow to his balls.
"OOH! NEVER! *cough*" He tackled Grimm and went down through the floor again. The guards all ran to the hole prepared to kill him when one of the dune worms came through the ceiling and killed all 14 of them. It then dove through the hole after Grimm.
"Did I miss something?" asked David.
"Uh... yeah. Hey can you go to the control booth over there? Be a doll and OPEN MY DAMN CELL!"
"Relax. You sound like you just had a near death experience." He said while opening the cells.
"Oh you have no idea..."
"Oh... I know! Let's have a party!" Christ... I keep forgetting he went insane due to Celestia's death.
Meanwhile... one floor below Twilight's POV
I sat alone in my cell as the guards dragged of Applejack. I wanted to help her but they shackled me and covered my horn with this magic cloth. They took all the mares as... sex slaves. What a cruel way to go before your executed for 'Master Lucifer.' I think that's what they said.
"Psst... hey Twilight." Said the voice from the cell on my right.
"Yeah Rainbow?" I whispered.
"Oh good. Your still fine. Is Applejack okay?" She couldn't see anymore. They not only raped Rainbow but they took away her eyes.
"Uh... yeah. She's sleeping."
"Oh... how about Fluttershy?" I haven't seen her in 3 days so I can only hope she's okay.
"I don't know." I whispered back.
"Rarity? Pinkie?"
"They've been gone for weeks."
"What do they do to them?"
"From what I've heard they send them to a different prison."
"How come they haven't taken you yet?"
"They think Grimm likes me. Can you believe that?"
"Yeah. You like him."
"Shh... anyways we can't worry about that. We can only pray."
"Twilight... Applejack's not there is she?"
"...No."
"I'm sorry."
"So am I..." I couldn't help but let the tears flow.
"Oh hey. Don't cry Twi."
"I'm sorry *sob*"
"Hey... I bet we'll get out of here soon."
"Let's hope so." Come on Grimm! If now you ever decide to come crashing through the ceiling than now would be the time.
(CRASH)
"Ow motherfucker!" cried Iron.
"What did I warn you!"
"You said..."
"I said if you ever fuck with my friends that I would murder you!" he slammed his fist into his face a few more times. "Have you met Queen Wyeth?" he flipped himself on his back and held him up as the worm came down and swallowed him. "Hello again today!"
"Hello my favorite subject." She tried to hug him.
"Oh hahahah! Quit it!"
"I'll see you later."
He stopped and looked over at me.
"Twilight?" he asked getting up.
"Grimm! You came!"
"Yeah! Hey... where's everyone else?"
"They sold them off... as sex slaves."
"Oh Twilight... oh no... don't worry! I can fix this!" He looked to his left and saw Rainbow. "Oh good heavens! Rainbow!"
"Hey Grimm..."
"Jesus, what did they do?"
"The same thing they do to any slave that disobeys orders."
"They gouge out your eyes?"
"Yeah. Pretty much."
Just before all of this... Grimm's POV
"So what do you think?" asked Iron.
"I think you couldn't have done this on your own."
"Ah... good eye."
"No. Your just a slacker."
"Shut up!"
"Yeah... hahaha... that's sounds about right."
"I will destroy you!" he grabbed me and started flying. In the air we began our fight. I started to shake my right hand like I was going to punch him then I gave him a strong left hook. "OW!"
"I'm giving you one chance to fix this you faggot!"
"Me? This is your fault!"
"Really?"
"Well... no... but... Shut up!" he tackled me again and we began our fist fight. I grabbed his wing and snapped the bone thus causing us to begin our free fall. "You were right though. I had help. Ever hear about Lucifer?"
"Lucy? Aw yeah...Ask her about the pineapple."
"What?"
Earlier a few dimensions back...
"I warned you! No one, and I mean NO ONE, FUCKS... WITH..." I had her bent over on a table pants-less with a pineapple above her asshole. "MY SANDWICH!!!" I brought down the sledgehammer forever bringing pain upon her life.
"So that's why she sits on all of those pillows." said Iron.
"Yep!" In the air I kicked him in the face and he started to wrestle with me again. I managed to ring my hands around his neck.
"Oh let go! Let go!"
"Why?"
"We are falling above the prison!"
"You could use a little time!" I started to choke him again as we fell into the prison.
Back to speed...
"I can fix this." I told Twilight.
"You say you could but you never mean it!" she yelled. "Sorry... It's just this is hard to take in for me."
"Yeah... so how did this happen?"
"A group of people rose out of a portal from the underworld and took over. They killed Celestia and scorched the planet."
"And Luna?"
"She was able to get away. Start a revolution."
"Alright-y then." I turned my metal arm into a blade and started cutting the jail bars.
"Grimm that won't work."
"Got it!" i managed to slice through all of them.
"Oh wow..."
"Twilight go upstairs. I saw Niko and David on my way down."
"David's gone insane."
"Oh... well get Niko out of there and I'll get Rainbow. Met me at quarter after." She ran away when I went to Rainbow's cell. I only saw her face though. I didn't know at the time that she was torn in pieces and chains pierced every inch of her body. "Oh crap... Rainbow? Listen... I don't think I can get you out of here."
"Can you please... end the pain? I know it's not easy since Pinkimina's death but please help me..."
"Rainbow...I...I...*sigh* Okay... I'm sorry."
"Don't be." I quickly slit her throat with my arm. She wouldn't even feel it. "Thank... you..."
"Sorry. Alright!" I turned around to get a good look of my area. Far ahead of me a portal opened up with a familiar woman walking out. "Ah Lucy. How's it been?"
"I've been horrible you repulsive bastard!"
"Oh... I'm so sorry. There does that make you feel better?"
"How do you feel knowing that your world had been destroyed because of you?"
"Honestly? I feel okay. Same old same old."
"Why?"
"Well I can easily fix this." I said while awkwardly scratching my head. Then Twilight ran down with Niko who was carrying David in a straight jacket. "Hey guys... meet Lucy. Lucifer. Lucille. Whatever you want to call her."
"I am your new god now."
"No your not. Because I know your weakness!" I jumped at her quickly dodging some of her shadow attacks. I got behind her and threw a kick hitting her in the ass.
"GAH!"
"Aha! I knew it!"
"Bastard..." she said while kneeling on the ground. "Wait... you didn't know?"
"I had to take a guess. Say while I wait for you to get up..." I reached into my pocket and pulled out a can of fruit. "Want some pineapple?"
"Kill him!" she shouted as Discord jumped down and kicked me away from her.
"Oh hello!" we both said at the same time. "How's it going? Stop copying me! Stop!"
"You dare?" asked the dead god.
"No... but he does." I said pointing to David who managed to get out of the jacket and jump on Discord. How did he do that?
"Did ya miss me?" he asked.
"David get off!"
"Nope!" he grabbed the god and jumped out the window with him.
"Did he... did he just..." Twilight was still... startled.
"Yeah he did. Kinda wish he didn't." I turned to see Lucy walking over to Rainbow's body. "Aw Lucy no don't do that man..."
"You afraid of zombies?" she asked.
"You know why."
"Because one zombie bite can kill a god." she said while doing an evil cackle. "Arise my new companion."
Rainbow got out of the cell with red dots in her empty eye sockets and she ripped off most of her skin leaving the cell. We stood there having a stare-down knowing this is life and death. I quickly used my sonic powers to get inside her head and use my mind tricks to turn her.
"Now attack my- AAAHHHH!" Rainbow turned and jumped on Lucy when she was talking biting her many times. I quickly ran away without know Niko and Twilight were following me.
"Wait!" they cried. I turned quickly seeing I was a good half a mile ahead of them.
"Come on!"
"I... need...to breath..." said Niko who started to walk.
"*sigh* You are so lucky..." I ran back and picked both him and Twilight up and ran to the mountain which I parked in. The desert wasn't that bad. Well besides the temp. and the lack of people. "Alright guys... we are almost there..." as I made my way to the mountain a loud bullet was fired going through my chest. "*sigh* Damn..." I dropped them and fell to my knee.
"We got him." said a voice behind some rocks. She then pulled out a megaphone. "Attention human! Release Twilight and Niko!" I recognize that voice... it was Fluttershy. But... not so Shy. She was threatening and evil man. So very evil.
"I... you shot me!"
"Then we leave you to die!" she ran up with a very large group of civilians turned soldiers and took away my friends. I faked my death and waited for them to leave before getting up.
"Oh boy... oh that's gonna scar..." I held my breath and popped out the bullet. ".308. Someone wants me dead." I looked around to see that they left and I was presumed dead. "Alright. They can handle themselves as I turn back time..." I went back to my mountain hike and went inside the Tardis.
"I'll take this back to... hmm... I'd say... last week." I went back in time and went outside to see the world on fire. "Nope." I went back in and went 5 more days back. "Aha!" Everything was back to normal. I ran back inside and grabbed my armor. I'm going to be prepared this time. I kinda wish I had my wings but running is so much more fun. Besides I'm like a modern Leonardo DaVinci.
"Help!" yelled a civilian who ran past me. I looked up to see them beginning their assault on the castle. Come on Grimm! Time to use your instinctive engineer skills! Aha! I smashed a park bench, sharpened a bunch of twigs, and grabbed some wire and made an improvised bow. I shot the arrow right in the neck of Discord.
Meanwhile...
"MUWAHAHA! I'll be taking you place in this world!" laughed Lucifer as she threatened Celestia.
"I'll be the one to kill this tramp!" yelled Iron as he stood beside her with a sword. "What about you Discord? You've been awfully quiet for awhile now."
"Discord?" asked Lucy. "You... got an arrow in your throat." I pulled on the wire and threw him to the wall beside of the window and I climbed up.
"Thank you buddy." I said throwing him out. "Iron, Lucy, how's it going?"
"Kill him-" started Iron but I jumped up and drop-kicked him. I grabbed one of my side knives and stabbed Lucifer's hand when she tried to grab me and I gave her a roundhouse kick.
"Guys get out of here!" I told the princesses. Iron went to hit me with a hammer and I ducked as he nailed Lucy. "Nice one."
"Shut up!"
"Okay that's finally getting annoying." He went for another punch and I grabbed it and snapped his arm making the bone stick out. I quickly turned his limb and stabbed him in the neck with it dropping his body. "Just you and me Lucy."
"I'm going to get you back-" I kicked her on the chest and pushed her on her back.
"I have no shame for you fallen angel."
"Keep up what your doing and you'll join me." I turned my arm into a single shotgun barrel and blew her head up.
"Sorry... didn't catch that."
"Your...dead..." choked out Iron.
"Save it Anthony." I pumped my arm back releasing a shell. "I picked up some ammo."
"I'm so scared."
"Oh I'm not going to kill you. I have a friend who wants to meet you." I grabbed him by his hair and ignited my rocket boots and flew to the desert. "Queen Wyeth!" I called as she came out like a sky scrapper opening her mouth. "Bye Iron."
"No! No! NOOOO!" I dropped him and watched all her teeth tear up the poor guy.
"Oh man. There's no way he survived that." I let out a sigh of relief and flew back finding Discord. "Oh how's it going guy?"
"You will be dead by my hand-" I blew his head up as well.
"Whatever." I put my back against the wall and began smoking my cancer sticks. "There's nothing better than a smoke to remind you that your alive. Wait... I'm dead. Hahaha..." Oh it's good fun to laugh at your own jokes when no one's around. That wasn't even a joke. I walked inside and made it to the door but stopped because I could hear everyone inside. I stopped smoking so they couldn't smell it and I refolded my helmet to hear them better.
"He did it!" cheered Pinkie Pie.
"It takes a monster to know one." said Rainbow.
"He saved my life." said Celestia. "He's not a monster Rainbow."
"Are you sure? You've seen everything and your telling me that he's not a dangerous freak?"
"I agree!" said Rarity.
"He scares me." said Fluttershy.
"No one should have that power. Especially not a freak like Grimm." said Twilight.
"Guys I think we're being irrational here." said Niko getting backed up by Vinyl, Octavia, David, and the princesses. Pinkie didn't say anything.
"I don't have to listen to you. In my opinion I think he should never come back." said Rainbow.
"THAT'S ENOUGH!" yelled David. "How dare you!"
"David how am I suppose to trust someone who enjoys killing? Hmm? I think he should be exiled!" they all remained quiet. I had my hand on the handle but... I couldn't open it. There hate just filled my heart with questions. What's the point in being here if they don't trust me? I mean I just saved the day again. If anything... they should be safe for the rest of this dimension's life. "I hate him. I really do."
"Rainbow..." started Twilight. "Why?"
"He's a murderer! A monster! A madman! And he gets all of this power as we all sit here and watch in awe." I accidentally pushed on the handle making a noise.
"Whose there?" asked Luna. "Show thyself now!" she demanded walking to the door. Right before she opened it I activated my cloak and she didn't take notice to me. It's more of optical camouflage meaning they can't see me if I don't move. While they continued there insults I went outside. The only damage, and I mean the only damage done to the city, was upon me. They destroyed my cookies. All except this one box. So I grabbed it and went to the park.
I watched the sunset. It was the last thing I saw before Shining killed me. Maybe that's why I liked orange so much... Yeah. I'll ask Death for the orange back. I don't care about the grey hair much though. This is nice. Just me... nibbling on some cookies... watching a sunset... while my 'friends' hate me. Even Twilight said something not so nice. *sigh* I wonder that maybe I should go back and just watch as those 3 demons destroy this world. I think they deserve it. But it's not my place to decide. NO that's out of my jurisdiction. I'm only the messenger of God's wrath.
"Hey man." said David walking up to me and taking a seat. "You saved us again."
"Yeah I did."
"You sound depressed. What's the matter?"
"Hmm... nothing." I continued to eat my cookies when I saw the others walk by. I didn't show any emotion on my face. I did hate them but... I don't want them to know it. Not yet.
"I'm serious. Tell me what's wrong?"
"*sigh* I saved the day and yet you guys treat me like a circus freak."
"You heard that huh?"
"Yeah... I kinda did. Kinda wish I didn't."
"Sorry."
"Fuck off."
"Right."
"Listen to me David. My job is not easy. I have to decide life and death constantly. I just saved this world AGAIN and maybe for the last time."
"Don't say that."
"What's the point if everyone hates me?"
"Grimm... look... I'm sorry. I know how you feel. I mean you just lost Pinkimina and you've seen the world in the future. Was it that bad?"
"It was horrible David. Absolutely horrible." I watched as the sun had finally set. "It's getting late."
"It's July 7th."
"So propose tomorrow."
"Will you be here?"
"...Probably not. No." I closed my cookie box and handed it to him. "Here. Finish these for me." I got up and walked away from the comfortable bench. A few ponies looked at me here and there. A lot of them closed their stores in-case I attacked or something. Then I saw a group of kids. They were playing with a soccer ball. One of them kicked it too hard and it landed at my feet. (Little did I know I was being followed by my friends.) "Hey there kiddo. Here's you ball." I said happily while handing it to him.
"That's okay... you keep it..."
"But I don't want YOUR ball. Here. Take it please."
"No! Get away from me you monster!" he cried when I handed it to him. He kicked it out of my hand and ran away with all the screaming kids. I unfolded my helmet and took another seat on a bench while smoking.
"*sigh* I can't even talk to kids anymore let alone be a father." I held the ball in my hands. He didn't want it. I looked up the street to see the same kids playing with another ball. Then I heard someone walk up and take a seat beside me.
"Tough crowd." said Rainbow Dash.
"You know it."
"David told me that you heard everything."
"...Yeah I did."
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that."
"You want a ball?"
"I saw that as well. Look your a nice guy but... we are just horrified by you. All the other humans are great!"
"So I'm the worst human here?"
"No... oh that came out wrong. Look..." I got up and started walking. "Grimm please listen!"
"What's the point!" When I walked past the kids I gently rolled the ball towards them and slept my hands in my pocket. Pinkimina would know how to cheer me up. She understood my pain better than any one here. But now she's happily living with her friends. I am the only person who will remember the other her. I turned around and saw that no one was following me so I went to the Tardis. "Oh what am I going to do?" then the screen on the controls showed Twilight knocking outside.
"Grimm! Are you in there?"
"Go away Sparkle." I said on the speaker.
"Can you just come outside and talk?"
"I've done enough talking. Leave me alone."
"So that's just it? Hmm? Your going to leave us?"
"Yeah I am miss 'No freak should have that power.' So bye."
"You heard that?"
"I did. So fuck you."
"You can't just leave."
"Sure I can. I saved this world. Now I'm moving on. You should too. Goodbye Twilight." I cut on the Tardis making it's wonderful noise.
"No! Wait please! Grimm!" I left that world and began traveling through time and space.
"*sigh* Good riddance. Luna seemed to like me a lot. That one Luna... Maybe if I-" Just then the Tardis started shaking and crashed into something sending me on my back. In the side of it stood a ship. "What?"
I reached down and grabbed a floaty which said the 'U.S.S. Equestrian Titanic.'
"What?"
