Chapter 3: Infernal killing
Previous Chapter Next ChapterThe train was starting to come to a stop as it approached the town nearby, and it was then that I decided to jump from the train, I released my buzz axe and fell to the ground, rolling as I hit it to reduce impact. I had noticed the Everfree forest not to far from town from the side of the train and decided to track down my old base in the forest.
I got up from my roll to find myself on the edge of the town with it between me and the Everfree. As I contemplated my choices I realized that I could just run straight through town instead of anything else. As I started to run to the town a couple of ponies on the outskirts had noticed me and ran towards the town screaming.
“GRIND GRIND GRIND KILL KILL KILL!” The voice screamed in my head.
“NO, they are innocents not like the guards who helped to imprison us and would do so again, they have no reason to die yet.” I thought back to the voice, suppressing it.
By now I was in town proper and had noticed that nopony was in sight. “They must have ran,” I thought to myself.
As I continued to run through town I was almost to the center where a fountain was. As I burst into the town center i heard shouts from around me as guards had jumped out of hiding places to fight me, it looked to be about 8 of them.
“Hault creature, in the name of Celestia.” spoke out a pure white pony at the front of them.
“I'LL SLICE OFF YOUR EYELIDS SO YOU CAN WATCH THE END!!” I screamed as I charged the guards with the intent to kill. As i was halfway through this charge I activated my buzz axe and was preparing to jump.
They had lowered the spears they were holding as to impale me, however as I neared I had jumped up and landed on one of the spears and used it to jump behind the guards. I turned around as fast as i could, my axe ripping through a guard in a wet squelching noise taking his life.
As they started to realize what had happened i was already making a second swing with my axe, however the guards had managed to start to move and my swing missed. A pony with a spear tried to hit me however it just snapped when it hit my shield. His trouble was rewarded with corrosive energy traveling down the spears remaining bit and into him, melting him into a puddle.
The unicorn of the group seeing that spears had yet to work tried to light me on fire. As the spell hit me it lit me on fire, however that had almost no effect on me. I decided i should show them a true fire. As I inhaled the ponies had started to run realizing that they couldn't win. I had finished inhaling and released a stream of fire long enough to catch three of them in it directly, engulfing them in flames. This triggered a large fire nova from the fire damage killing them and taking out the rest of the guards.
I had started to sprint for the forest as I was not eager for a new battle and had managed to make it to the town's edge in record time. As i approached the forest I could feel it surging with power as its master returned to it. I slowed down to a walk and stood at the edge of the dark dank place before running in. I had noticed a kind of path that the plants shied away from and followed, knowing this is how the forest guides me.
As I came to what seemed like the end of the path I saw a cave ahead. But not just any cave, it was the cave i made my home so long ago. As i walked inside of it I lit the torches with fire breath. As the cave brightened up i saw several old sites. Things such the off shoot to my arsenal, or over there in the corner, one of the most important things to me, a jury rigged New-U. On the opposite side of the cave i had a station for refining medicine and making bullets. And at the end of the cave a simple sack of hay to sleep on.
It was everything that I needed to live in this land. I had decided to go down to my arsenal to arm myself for what would hopefully be a full on slaughter. As I traveled down the off shoot to the gun stash. I was thinking on what to grab and decided to go for a medium to close range loadout. A smg, a shotgun, a launcher, and a Vladof rifle.
I entered the stache and laid my eyes upon the bountiful legendary loot. However i already knew what weapons i would be using. I started by finding my smg, a Maliwan HellFire just for the extra little flair of fire and death. Next I went to find the Shredifier, cause nothing says slaughter like a wall of bullets. Next however was my favorite gun that I had ever found, Deliverance after all i need at least on thing to be close accurate, so why not a heat seeking shotgun. And last but not least is the Badaboom launcher, when all else fails, spray and pray. Of course all of them were incedary for the bonuses that it provides me to use them.
Now just to find my mod. The legendary psycho mod, boosting all of the skills I need to be as strong as I can, I felt the power boost as I put it on my pants. I was ready for a slaughter and i knew it. Now however was a time for sleep i thought as i walked up to the main cave and fell onto the bag of hay and promptly passed out.
