Pow!

“One.”

Pow!

“Two.”

Pow!

“Three.”

Pow! Pow!

“Thats four.”

Pow!

“Five. Reloading.”

Len dove back behind cover to reload her new rifle. She groaned as she heard the tell-tale scream of a psycho rushing her.

“You’ll make the best meat bicycle!” Yelled the bloodshot bandit as he ran up the hill with buzzsaw axe. She couldn't help but grin when she jumped up and punched him in the face, his mask breaking from the impact. She really enjoyed kicking him over the edge into a deep cavern with spikes all over the floor beneath.

“Have a nice fall Asshat!” yelled a happy Len before popping two more shots and blowing the heads off of two more bandits before diving back behind cover.

‘How did this shit even happen again? The day started out so pleasant too.’

...

Blood Wing, a thestral and Luna’s personal assistant(or whatever you call her position.), panted heavily as her body twitched uncontrollably. Len rose from her knees licking her lips. “Thanks for the fun. I’ll be back after I return from scouting some gryphon camps, then we do this a couple more times.” Blood Wing couldn't even reply as she just nodded with a goofy grin on her face.

“Good girl, see ya around.” She strode out into the hallway happy with herself as she looked at her EXP bar seeing it flash before emptying as she got the classic LVL UP with a big golden 15 popping up into her face. Checking her skill tree, she added a point into one of her more weird trees that had nothing to do with the character Gaige from Borderlands, instead they dealt with her use of magic and... well the last one of the three new trees was a bit of a mystery but she still liked the sound of it.

“Hey, Len, got a mission for us!” Came an excited Firefly zooming down the hallway to land beside her, Gilda right behind her and landing to her other side. “We get to go fuck up some more dodos and maybe even get some pie on the way back! Fun right!”

Len chuckled as she scratched behind Firefly’s ear. The mare practically looked orgasmic as from the scratch, her eyes seeming to glaze over. ‘Who would have thought ponies like it behind the ears just as much as dogs do?’

“Sure does Fly. Let’s get on the move already, we’re wasting precious killing time.” Len said with glee as she ran down the hallway eager to get started. She had just finished upgrading her goggles yesterday as well as found some new gear by killing the local skags. Something she didn't even know existed here.

“Alright boss lady, let’s go kick some ass!” Fly cheered before we left the castle.

...

Boom!

“Ha, ya skaglit!” She screamed as she killed another gryphon, blowing his head off and turning it into chunks.

Gilda grinned madly as she slashed through two more with her sword before shooting a third one in the face with her pistol. Firefly just laughed like a maniac as she down through any that tried to flee.

“I love my job!” Yelled Gilda as she plunged her sword into a goliath gryphon centurion, the massive gryphon twice the size of a normal gryphon. Gilda’s grin fell as the huge gryphon just seemed to be a bit more pissed than in pain and got bitch smacked into a tree.

Firefly yelled out a battle cry as she shot forward at blinding speeds and delivered a solid buck to the gryphons jaw, the sickening sound of bones breaking filling the air as she used his face as a springboard to tackle another gryphon out of the air and brutally bash his skull in.

The massive gryphon stumbled about still recovering from the surprising brutality of the pegasus. Len, being one of opportunity, ran up behind him and grinned with malicious intent before giving him a solid robot nut check. If the gryphon thought he was in pain before, now he was pure, unfathomable agony the likes of which no one had ever known.

“Say ‘ahh! ’ Shit for brains!” Len pulled out a triple barreled shotgun and fired it into the gryphon’s face, blowing his head off and blighting his body on fire.

Len looked pretty satisfied with herself as she watched the gryphon start dropping their weapons in fear and surrendering. “Good choice, We would have been happy to slaughter you all but, y’know what, this works to.”

“Hey G, you alright over there?” asked a concerned Firefly. GIlda gave a thumbs up before proceeding to rest up against the tree.

“My head is spinning but I’ll be fine after a few minutes.” She said as her eyes spun around comically.

Firefly and Len relaxed as they tied up their captives. Satisfied, the trio started to loot the area fro any valuables.

“Wow, its good thing we have you on our side. To bad you came in near the end of the war. the gryphon’s are almost beaten. Sadly that means less violence for us.” Firefly deflated at the revelation, actually saddened.

“Be careful what you wish for Fly. fighting the gryphons amy be fun, but an even worse enemy could show up and it won't be so fun then.” Len warned. After finding out that skags existed in Equestria she had been worried how many other things for the game existed in this world.

As if to simply answer her thoughts in the most bull shit way possible, a massive metal structure boomed out of a portal in the sky, the object zooming overhead before crashing some ways away.

“I got a bad feeling about this one guys. Lets check it out.” Len ordered before taking off in its direction.

Len ducked behind a rock as she looked on in both mild shock and horror at the occupants of the object, a ship from the looks of it. Anthropomorphic ponies all wearing varying items of clothing such as masks, helmet, goggles blood stained pants and blood stained wraps, usually on their arms and or chest. Each one looked to be well armed and few didn't even have guns, just carrying around a buzzsaw axe.

“Hey, it’s a vault hunter! Let’s get em!” yelled a bandit. Said bandit received two shots, one to his nuts and the last to his face.

“Fuck you skag breath, you sons a bitches ain't gonna take me down, no way, no how!” Len shouted back. before popping off into two more bandits taking them down.

‘And thus you now understand just how quickly things went to shit. What was supposed to be a simply, yet very fun killing spree elevated into a shootout with a bunch damn bandits. Just great. Well, at least I can do some real looten, borderlands style.’

Gilda flew overhead unloading a full three clips into the bandits racking up six kills before she landed to avoid being shot out of the sky. Firefly, being even crazier and headstrong than both of us combined, fly straight into the heat of things slashing away and dismembering at least a dozen of them before sheathing her swords, instead picking up two buzzsaw axes before dashing from behind piece of ship wreckage and continuing her slaughter spree. After making a full two dozen in total kills she landed beside a stunned Len and Gilda.

“Are...are you the god of death?” Asked Gilda in a state of complete awe.

“Not bad, but let’s see if I can't do better.” said Len before doing what was even seen as crazy by Firefly and probably even Discord, she jumped over the rock ran down the hill firing and reloading her shotgun over and over. The two didn't understand at first, it soon became apparent as she went about blasting bandits apart left and right, half the time her shots missed but somehow ricocheted of objects and still managed to find a cozy home inside of bandit skaglits, incinerating them.

The biggest surprise came when Len unleashed a secret weapon, one she had kept secret for the last two weeks. A massive, floating machine was soon digistructed into existence before booming in mechanical sound before immediately going about slash and beating bandits into a fine paste of blood and guts.

“Third place... third place... I can’t believe those judges gave you third place! I mean, just look at how badass you are Death trap!” Len raved.

“Thank you master. DIE!” boomed a deep mechanical voice as the machine known as Death Trap ripped a bandit in half. A much large bandit walked out into the battle, one arm being freakishly huge and the other freakishly small. GIlda made sure to picked up a new, better weapon before rushing in and unloading both of her guns at the overgrown monstrosity from the sky while Firefly rushed in taking care of any other bandits that were in the area.

“We got ourselves a badass, be careful!:” Len shouted before Death Trap went to work fighting the badass bandit. Though DT was strong, the bandit was equally so and demonstrated this by back handing the robot to the ground. As it raised its weapon to strike the downed machine, DT fired a laser from its one eye burning the bastard alive as Len unleashed her wrath on him with a new weapon she picked up,a four barreled corrosive shotgun, and Gilda hovered behind him reloading and firing off in his back. Dt managed to get up before taking one last great slash and decapitating the badass.

Len sighed as she looked around to see that everyone was either dead or had managed to escape into the forest. Checking her map, however, revealed one last red dot. Len, being a bit of completionist as of late, marched over to the last dot shotgun in hand.

“Ya should have ran like the rest of your friends ass hat, cause now I’m gonna-” She stopped, lowering her weapon seeing a wounded little filly, probably no older than 12. Her left arm and right leg were mangled beyond repair and hanging by bits of flesh, not even fully connected in all honesty. Two long cuts went over her left eye and the other eye, though still there, didn't look to be in too much of a better state than the other.

Gilda was about to ask what was going on when she halted at the sight of the girl and her heart sank seeing what she knew had to be a child in such critical condition. The poor thing barely looked alive at all, the only sign she still was, was the rising and falling of her chest but it was more than obvious she was fading fast.

“Um,... Gilda, Firefly, watch over her for a sec, try and keep her alive till I get back.” She ordered. Neither of them protested as Firefly got a good look at the horrible condition of her charge.

Len searched frantically through the wreckage. “Come on, come on, it's got to be here! Where is it?!”

Tossing a side piece of debris she found a crate and opened it to find exactly what she had been looking for. “Yes! I”m coming guys!”

She sprinted over to them, sliding under a fallen rail and sliding to halt just a mere inch away. Without hesitation she injected the mare with one of the vials. “Get her to the castle, i need to scavenge for a few things around here to help the poor kid out.”

Her words left no room for question as she rushed off leaving her two companions to tend to their part and get the young filly to the castle for treatment. All the while, form watched them from the shadows. a pair of teal eyes narrowing before the form sunk into the shadows, with a sick grin it watched Len closely before disappearing all together.

“Yes, fight, get stronger, yes. Prepare your body for you shall be truly useful to me...Miss Heartworthy.”
