Author's Notes:

To those who had spent the last fortnight dwelling in and of course on this story so far, I've now realized that this exponential jump in word count from the previous chapter has made the whole thing a bit too large and overrated to say the least; thankfully, I've decided to get better at this and remedy the problems long enough to finish it on a high note so until then I have one thing to say to y'all: brace yourselves.

Anyways, this chapter will be considered a proper finish to the first part and I mean no exaggeration whatsoever before returning to the set pattern as well: this was by far a difficult task to accomplish given the time that had been lost doing so and the fact that it was created all by myself but we can assure you that it will be made up for it soon enough later onward; after all, for those of you who've read part one, you will find that a special guest will be joining the party faster than you could flawlessly say "A Cruel Angel's Thesis" in its native mother language.

Anyways, here is the disclaimer before you head on out and read the chapter: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic belongs to Lauren Faust; Parasite Eve belongs to Hideaki Sena; this story and the character Adam belongs to us, Dark Colt Sabata and yours truly, Fireflower.

“Perfect: the wheels are now in motion and our esteemed guests of honor have already arrived,” a low chuckle escaped out into the enormously raucous crowd of mares outside the castle ruins, the source being none other than Adam himself whom notice a scattering swarm of stallions and caribou starting to gather behind them in the distance.

Among one of them was the guardpony in silver armor, gathering many others about alongside a few caribou next to the bridge; in process, the ratio between them was four to three so to speak. The other guardponies varied in the color of the coats and armor upon their very bodies already, a trait not shared by the caribous in the group despite not showing any importance whatsoever. Each of the members in attendance were carrying weapons of every length and material possible, all of which that shared a purpose in striving for the common goal that their owners had in mind. Every single being had on a pair of eyebrows arching towards one another and a set of smiles like barbed wire not meant to keep out intruders but as traps to capture the unwary in the process. For what it was worth though, it had seemed that preparations were in order to carry out a series of actions only know to themselves but not the mares whom were so far away from the swarm.

Taking his time to exhale at once, he swallowed a lump in the throat then said to them all at once, “alright men, listen up and listen good: yesterday’s whore games had gotten off to an explosive start which would have been bitching if it weren’t for the fires and the escaping what have you; nevertheless, this is indeed a very serious issue that we’re expected to handle it as such at once. We have reason to believe the remaining escapees have been holed up past the Everfree Forest; thanks to that zebra cunt and her owner, we have mustered up supplies to recapture these twats. However, these deluded masses have lost their way and it is our duty as males to make them all see the light once more: our mission is to take back as many as we can but do not kill a single one for the time being. Also, there is a possibility that the rabble-rousing mare sympathizer heretic is among one of them so be on the lookout: if you can’t take him with you, then hit him with everything you got. To male superiority, to the new Equestria, and more importantly, to our King Dainn…!”

“ALL HAIL THE NEWFOUND KING!” were all the very words that the swarm had shouted loudly as they raised up their weapons and items in such a furor, “DOWN WITH THE MARES!”

“CHARGE!” the guardpony spoke, leading the soldiers on to the bridge where the equines had gathered; little did they realize, there were already watched by the white canine from so far away.

Adam chuckled quietly at the approaching army behind the large audience before speaking to the crowd at once instantly, “to those looking for freedom, look behind you right now: see to this as a chance to take it back; show these oppressors that you are not beneath them!”

“DOWN WITH DAINN…!” the crowd shouted in anger as they started to face the oncoming horde at once, “UP WITH EQUESTRIA…!”

Almost immediately, the two opposing forces were on the move to strike each with all of their might and emotion guiding them as the commotion escalated. One of the caribou opposite of the mares had moved in front the lead guardpony, reaching for the nearest mare, a charred coat one armed with large stone in tow, with a big stick to smack it out of the way. Pinkie and Applejack watched as the mare bashed his teeth in the muzzle before being swallowed by those trailing behind. Thrashing shrieks joined the clash of materials carrying around the castle grounds as both equine and cervine masses rose to the conflict within due time, every single one of their defenses instantly forgotten. The males who were fighting off the advances had little to no time in admiring the opposition’s overall dishabille altogether, moving onward with only smooth efficiency as they engage them at once. The notable exceptions in question whom were lucky to cover up a part of themselves then joined the others once more, thanks to the determine regiment but refused to run away in terror of their lost modesty.

“Pinkie, where are you going…?” the orange pony whispered as she watched the pink counterpart walk into the opposite direction of where the rest were located at.

At this very moment, Pinkie managed to lock up her sights onto Adam so far away, ignoring Applejack whom followed as the two made their way further past where the people once were before. A cool breeze ran over their fur and skin as they took note of the lingering aroma now dissipating at once; nevertheless, its presence reminded them both of their current status of affairs whatsoever. The two walk on towards the ruins til a faint sound joined the commotion: what had started out as a rusty creak metamorphosed into a metal jerk as it had came from a falling wooden door.

While that they were definitely safe from the initial impact, they were nonetheless quick enough to cover themselves away from the miniscule debris that ensued from it all; afterwards, their ears now stood on endwise as the canine greeted, “picked a nice day for traveling, wouldn’t you say?”

“Don’t try and play it cool here; Ah am not sure about what you’re doing here at this time…!” the orange pony snarled as she pointed at Adam while the pink one looked onward as they were, “who are you and what have you done to my friend; are you working with the caribou…?!”

“Humph, I’m the one that your friend has been talking about; besides, it should be obvious…” the canine replied as he started to walk into the castle without a care in the whole wide world.

Applejack growled and started to follow him with Pinkie trailing behind her at once saying, “what do ya mean by that; how exactly do you expect me to understand all this, let alone believe it? You’re a diamond dog after all, aren’t ya: Ah read about how the mares trying to escape this nightmare being caught by them varmints ever since; what’s going to make us think you’re any different? Are you even alone in this one: Ah bet that your team is probably hiding underground right this minute; why don’t you call your fellows to come up so y’all can throw us down and rape us when you have the chance? You’re just as bad as these rutting caribou, turning us mares like me into sex objects and fuck toys just to be passed around without a care; Ah had watched people being ruined by that rutting bastard who called himself king: Celestia, Fluttershy, Pinkie, Winona, EVEN A FEW MEMBERS OF MAH FAMILY GOT BLANKED BECAUSE OF HIM! What’s going on here, you mongrel freak; what and why in the green hill are you all doing this?! I just want to understand… why now… why…?”

“Applejack…” the pink pony slowly squeaked as she then heard the orange one started sniffling about suddenly, “please don’t cry…”

“Don’t…!” Applejack wept as she outstretched a hand in front of Pinkie with little warning, stopping the latter at a small distance from the former as some tears were being wiped away.

Adam watched as the orange pony’s tears fell from her eyes to the cover and soil before sighing, “okay then, it’s best that I show you…”

“Show me what: your cock…?” Applejack growled as the canine looked onward, “Ah see where this is going…”

“I meant the castle… come along…” he murmured before turning away and walking inside, prompting the two ponies to follow him; what they had found reflected the outside in quality. The stony lonesome walls inside the castle had showed signs of erosion and disrepair as equiangular holes of every shape and perimeter whatsoever surrounded out and about within. Many parts of the ceiling were reeking of leaky dust and pebbles as if they were ready to stumble and fall under its own weight by the gravitational pull so that a fake skyline would take its place. The flooring had many patches of grass that even showed the darker and drab color shades with its own texture being not worth its attention despite its inherent problems reflecting of the area. The tapestries that were found hanging from above the ground once told of its very own history now told of the current state of affairs with little of the shadows that could be with wear and tear. The stairwells around the three had pointed upward from the ground with each possibility being almost endless but nonetheless limited by its dimensions as they still stood up on themselves.

Pinkie looked around at the environment that they were in with but a wide mouth and gasped, “wowie, I’m surprised that the place has managed to stand up on itself after all these years…!”

“Hmm… it seems that your friend here happens to be acting a bit off after all that went on…” Adam said to Applejack before stopping in place, “how often is she like this…?”

“All the time but before the whole mess; why should it concern you anyway…?” the orange pony wheezed as the canine faced her slowly.

At first, only silence was filling in the blanks brought on by the dead air but then he’d answered, “to be honest, I knew not much about the whole thing at all to begin with; but, let’s just say that I am nothing like them. However, what I had learned was from my constant travels throughout the land and how things had changed so suddenly all this time; you see where I am going with this. Under any other circumstances, I would have been just another target of the fallen’s unfulfilled revenge, succumbing to the aftereffects of lecherousness just like many of the others…”

“Others…?” Applejack interrupted as she wiped the last of the tears away completely, “what are you saying…?”

“The usurpers only believe in might making right but what this world needs are wrongs being righted: this short term pursuit of happiness at the land’s expense will make everything worse off in the long run; it’s was only a matter of time…” Adam continued as he faced the orange pony.

Applejack stared on in confusion and said to the canine with suspicion, “Ah don’t get you…”

“This pointless destruction in the name of superiority is causing nothing but misery for many even as of now…” he replied with a dark tone, “the violence, the cruelty, the murder of this oh green world will be their own undoing; even without me, the death warrant would still be signed nonetheless but I do not desire the death of all beings. I would rather go for a tactical destruction rather than total annihilation; going after the big fish is just like cutting off the head: once that happens, the body will wither and die. Besides, your friend has a similar power just like mine but for the time being, it lays dormant; speaking of which, I believe you two had alright found another one joining in right now.”

“Rainbow…?” the pink pony spoke prompting her friend to turn around and come in contact with another individual: a cyan pony standing within the doorway; judging from the attire, it was safe to say that the being in question was a pegasus mare. The subject in question had on a jet black collar, just like Applejack, along with a set of matching sheaths that were set in place of these very wings. Rainbow had a short mane, though stained with a few patches of dirt possessed a color scheme reflecting its namesake, thin racing stripes and all no less compared to the orange pony. The cyan pegasus wore a dark blue turtleneck with a yellow lightning bolt to give much attention to the cleavage that was exposed to the elements. Oddly enough, there was also another article of clothing that was of more surprise to say the very least: across Rainbow’s waistline were a set of leaves arraigned to avoid the same condition. The cyan pegasus sported a series of cuts and bruises throughout her body from top to bottom, each of them possessing a significant variance in shape and size altogether; one of them even appear in between her magenta irises.

Rainbow started to enter the main hall, approaching Pinkie and Applejack steadily while asking, “Pinkie, Applejack, you’re alive; I can’t believe that it’s really you two guys. What are you doing here…?”

“We was going to ask you the same thing, Rainbow…” the orange pony answered the cyan pegasus as the former moved onward slowly, “what happened with everyone smelling so foul?”

“Beats me… but enough about that: we need to get out of here fast; there’s a good chance that more of these bastards will be after us soon enough…!” Rainbow replied as she grabbed ahold of Applejack’s shoulder.

The orange pony turned around and said, “Ah know a place where we can lay low for the time being: Ah can understand ya being all reluctant about the whole thing sugarcube but it’s at mah brother’s farm; we just need to stay out of trouble until we can come up with a different plan.”

“Applejack, why would we go here of all places; what if they decide to check here first soon…?” the cyan pegasus asked with the slightest bit of trepidation in her very tone for other traveler to hear, “even if they don’t, how can you be sure about it; what if these fuckers have turned him into one of them already…?”

“If they had done that sooner, then how else would Ah have been able to get this far, especially with Pinkie in tow no less…?” Applejack said as Rainbow glanced at Pinkie with suspicion.

The pink pony slowly moved forward to the two and said to them at once with little hesitation, “she’s got a point; even she trusts me…”

“How, Pinkie…?” the cyan pegasus growled as she moved in front of the orange pony without so much as a warning, “you’re just another red collar like Rarity and that traitor of a princess…!”

“Not since yesterday after what had happened; besides, with my owner dead, what choice do I even have especially considering the trouble going on and about…?” Pinkie explained as Rainbow glared at the former, leaving Applejack a bit unsettled by the fain animosity thereof.

Soon enough, the sounds of a sudden strong gust of wind surfed inside the stony ruins not so silently; then, Adam started to speak to the group of three, “you should go on ahead and hide already for the time being; your strength will serve as a purpose for the ongoing days to come.”

“What do you know about all this; aren’t you one of them anyway…?!” the cyan pegasus barked faintly at the canine, scaring the pink pony, “what makes you think I should listen to you…?!”

“Simply put, we are all in this together…” he answered calmly, shaking his head nonchalantly.

Rainbow turned her eyes away from Adam who stood there away from them and then onto Pinkie who was started to back away from her slowly; just as the former averted her sight from them, she said, “I don’t know what to think about it; all this talk about rebellion here reminds me of how the others failed especially concerning that dickhead of a king here.”

“Ah know that too sugarcube: we were all there on that bright sunny day, every one of us, except Rarity of course…” Applejack said, wiping a tear away from the eye with her blanket, “however, Ah would’ve been unable to believe that Pinkie had been freed from all this madness no less…”

“You’re right, what do you say that we leave this place before we all go to pieces once again…?” the cyan pegasus asked, causing the two other ponies around to crack a smile upon their faces.

Rainbow felt a pair of arms draped over her shoulders as she found herself brought closer to Applejack who said, “you’ve read mah mind sugarcube…”

“And mines too, Dashie; did I forget to tell you that we were expecting to see you again…?!” Pinkie shouted as she jumped towards the two, “I mean you were all ‘I SAY WE–––’”

“Let’s get something straight here: I don’t know how or what did happened that made you able to convince Applejack that you’re on her side or that weirdo’s side but we still have a long way to go before you go and earn mine trust back; after all, you’re still a red collar, understand…?!” the cyan pegasus snorted, intercepting the pink pony’s arm with a tightened grip instantaneously.

Pinkie stopped in midair as Rainbow glared fiercely while the canine looked on without a care; then, their orange friend interjected, “enough of this, Rainbow put Pinkie back down floor now!”

“Fine then; as you wish…” the cyan pegasus said before releasing the pink pony at once, sending the former tumbling onto the floor instantly with a trepid whimper, “so what now, old friend…?”

“We leave; at this rate, Dainn’s going to be stopping at nothing to regain control of the whole thing…” Applejack answered as she began to walk out of the main hall at once.

After Pinkie got back up, Rainbow still focused in on the blue eyes and said but only lowly, “don’t think that it’s over yet…”

The pink pony only whimpered before the cyan pegasus followed the orange one quietly; afterwards, the former joined alongside.
