" How fate Ends."

It was the middle of the night before the day of the fight. I woke up to screaming and sword clashing. The battle had started early. I gathard my cloak and weapons along with my bag and rushed outside. Seeing that the village is on fire. It seems the leader of these guards made a surprise attack. I saw many bodies of zebras and ponies I didn't know.

I saw many of them rushing into the inn. As it seems it's the only building along with some on the dock that is not burning. I noticed the ordinance is on fire and all the children and the swamp rat thing is in the inn as well. I got into the battle hearing machine guns from Hawk and we started to push them back. Arrows flew behind us and then I heard more gunshots. Looking towards the blacksmith I noticed they were able to make guns but very poor guns.

They still fired and hit the guards and I noticed Jonon who had a few arrows in her side. But she kept plugging on and they were pulling zebras griffins and ponies out of the burning buildings. I felt I had enough. There is something in my bag. I never told Jonon that it was in there. I attached the Stealth buck and reached into my bag, bringing out several metal apples, and a landmine. I rushed by the guards into the middle of them and set down a frag and they blew up causing them to fly and burn. Then I tossed one up the road to them more burning. I looked down and Jonon had a look of disappointment frozen to her face.

I reached into my bags with my magic and pulled out some tape and before another guard rushed out. I placed the mine covered in tape on the ass of the stallion without him even knowing. Of course i didn't know if it would go off or not. But I armed it first. Maybe I would hear something. Then I went into the building. Looking around calmly and saw the nameplate of who owned this building. The Bicep's family. Looking to see the first of this line. Captain Bulk Biceps had built this house. Then went down the line and I finally saw the owner of this house. Sir Bicep's. I looked at the painting seeing the smug ass grin. It was pretty silent in this house. Looking around very calmly and looked into a glass case..Seeing a very old gun. A gun called the Bulk. It seemed to be a giant giant gun made for one as big as this Bicep's family. But before I could do anything I finally heard something and walking out of the room. It seemed to be a bodyguard of the owner. A large earth pony male with heavy armor and large sword's. I tried to sneak with the stealth buck of course not realizing that it's about to go shut off. I got closer and a little bit closer and when I got near him it went turned off and I looked at him face to face. He looked down at me in my eye. Giving me a soft kind smile. I gave a weak smile back trying to now back up and then before I could the large stallion lifted on his back hoofs and tried to smash into me. But I moved quickly but felt a bit of a shock wave that shook the house..That made me back up closer.

Coughing a bit and looked up to him. I was scared to death was it normal for me to pee? Well I did pee myself and looked down the puddle of yellow forming at my hooves and gulped deeply. He walked closer to me and started to speak in a deep voice. " So...you're the one that has been causing all the problems." He started walking closer to me. " The little hero..trying to make the island a better place. Go back to Equestria little filly. You belong there with the rest of the filth." My eyes went wide and I kept my cool and with my magic I pulled out my sword. He pulled out his giant sword with his mouth and I just stared.. I was trained to fight like a Zebra. But it wasn't going to be easy. Because I needed more than just a few weeks of training. Slowly we started to move around each other eyeing each other. Looking for weakness but the battle was getting closer..I could hear screaming and swords from the battle outside.

It was silent inside the house. All we heard was the screaming and the sword. He charged first and rushed at me. I ducked and went through his legs. He tried stomping me with his hooves but I made it before he could get me and I turned around quickly slicing into his flank. Blood spurted everywhere but he kept going. he then turned around and smashed his sword into mine and I had to parry it and groaning in pain from trying to use my magic. Then I didn't noticed that he lifted a hoof and smashed into me made me fly into the wall. The sword dropped from my magic and I coughed and looked up from him and he said in a dark smile with the sword in his mouth.

" You...will...die.." He charged and I tried to get out of the way and He stabbed me right in the shoulder and I coughed as the sword impaled me into the wall so much pain but..he couldn't pull it out. But he smirked at me and pulled out another sword and I was in a daze from the pain. As he stabbed a knife into my other shoulder. I groaned in more pain..i couldn't move. I knew my bones were broken and I couldn't move my leg to see the Pip buck. I had to do something my vision turned into the magic seeking. Looking around i noticed a vase that had a strange magic aura. I tried to grab it with my magic but I couldn't he was backing up. He set his bow down and then armed an arrow and I heard a window break seeing a gun landing right beside me. Looking up seeing the merchant lizard and gave me a nod vanishing into the night. Looking at the gun and him looking at me with glee to shoot me with an arrow. He fired but the arrow missed very slightly hitting my mane and it hitting the wall. I finally lifted the gun and weakly aimed and finally did what I should have done.

I went into S.T.A.T.S. and time slowed down. I aimed for his head targeting it three times. The first two shots missed him and when the time went back to normal I fired one more time and he fell dead. But then I noticed my Pip Buck it said. Stats will not refresh . Something on this island was blocking its ability to recharge. Groaning in so much pain, I used my magic to pull out the knife and the sword. I groaned as I’m sure my bones are broken. Looking into my bag for some potions. I did find them of course and I drank the two the wounds and the bones did heal..But I felt I was standing on very weak legs. But then fell back on my haunches groaning. I felt my body burn from pain and I groaned softly. Slowly I stood back up. Now I needed to find the owner of this building. Looking around calmly my eyes studying the glass cases. Some were full of old armor and flag's. Other had old weapons and some had guns along with a few bullets for said guns. I was looking at old paintings of the princess and ponies before they died from the stupid war that somehow got to this island. My hooves clicked along the wood of the floor.

Slowly walking upstairs to try to find the owner of this building and when I finally got to the main room. A chair was not facing me it was turned around looking into the fire place. A voice spoke a soft male voice.

" You must be the hero that is trying to rescue this little town of filth. But from the point of you view that you see. Yes I do understand. You're from Equestria! Where my ancestors are from. I am sorry to say though if you kill me, the Queen will send some of her army to take this place back from you. But that’s if she cares what goes on here. But If you call off your dogs and I call off what is left of mine, we will have a duel! A duel for the fate of this town. If i win I will kill all the Zebra and leave the ponies to be breeding fodder. If you win, I will be dead of course but if you do win, my guards will leave and you may have all the treasures of this building."

The large Pegasus stood up and he had a dueling sword along his side. He looked to me and smiled. " No guns. Just the weapons of the past. Before the war that ended our land."

His offer was just too good. A way to free the town and without much bloodshed? I gave him nod. I would free this town!

Duel for Cliffside

It took some time but i was able to get the citizens of Cliff side to stop their attack. I had no gear on anymore but my sword. The citizens were ready to kill anyone even after the duel. I told them the deal but most didn't care they would do what they wished anyway. A storm oddly started to form and rain slowly. Putting the sword in my mouth and it was getting to be time. I looked at all the citizens of Cliff side that lived through the battle. They all were out here cheering for me most of the guards held back because if they even got close to the citizens they would be killed. The Pegasus started to speak.

" Citizen's of Cliff side...This is a duel of the old ways before our lands pushed ourselves into that silly war of the past. If she wins..Everything will belong to you and the debt my ancestors did to you will be repaid. If I win...then you will follow me and rebuild this town. The deal has already been agreed. Now! No using magic unicorn." Giving a nod and the clock not far from us counted down to the time for the duel.

It was time and our weapons clashed while the storm came down harder and ten times nastier but..they all watched. This was their fate a fate that they never knew they wanted. He had more experience then I did he was able to hit me back a few times and got a few cuts in on me but I was able to get one of his wings. Blood drained from my small wound's. Blood drained from his wing. Pain went through every fiber of me. It was getting harder to do this fight..Because I had muscles I over strained while trying to keep myself from falling. He smashed my sword out of my mouth and then looked at me with a grin.

" Ah the hero..doesn't fight so well I see." He said speaking with the sword in his mouth and started to swing his sword at me in many stabs motions and swings. I could feel the power behind each swing and stab and I did my best to avoid then and I heard Jonon yell. 'Fight like a Zebra!!' Then I started to use my training I got on my back hooves and jumped into the air getting onto his back..But being smaller I couldn't do anything but while he was trying to buck me off his back. I wrapped around his neck and then tried to remove all the air from it. He started to slow while his eyes were bugging out. Grabbing a knife with my mouth I stabbed it right into his head killing him but when I did, a flash hit my eyes.

Memory

I was in the body of Bulk? He was building his house and he looked to the Queen as she came over with a gentle smile on her face.

" Did you find the seal and make sure it was protected?" My host gave a nod looking towards the building. He didn't seem to speak much but he did speak. It had a calm and relaxed voice.

" This seal, what will happen if all of them are shattered?" The Queen known as Majesty just seemed to give a dark smile.

" If all the seals are broken on this island, it weakens the seal holding the great threat in place. A threat that would not just harm all of Equestria but the world."

My host blinked and looked back at the Queen.

" You mean the creature imprisoned on this island is not the greatest threat?" Before she could answer back the vision ended.

I woke up in a bed. A bed I have never seen before. Slowly getting out of it and I looked around hearing hooves close to the way in and Jonon walking inside.

" Ah you're awake hero. You have been out for a couple of day's. The citizens of the town have thought of giving you this house and you becoming the leader of Cliff Side."

I blinked a moment and thought a moment and sighing knowing If I said no somepony would be put in their place much worse.

" I will be your advisor since..I am one of your companions that follow you on your journey." Giving a nod and slowly stood out of the bed.

" First things first...I am sure he has a garden here..We need to harvest and give all of the food we can find to the citizens then see what is in the basement" She nodded we looked through the entire house seeing mostly paintings and then we got a one large room that was the main room. I found him. IN the room was many books and in the middle on the desk a map of the entire island. But it seems it was made 200 years ago before more of the folks that are here showed up.

Then I remembered that vision I had about the basement. Heading down into the basement we saw a lot of old gear from so long ago. Even some turrets that could be placed around the town. But it would take time to get power to them. They have been powered down for so many year's. The fact they would even work would be impressive to me. Looking through more of the room of the basement not seeing the seal that is carved into the floor and I walked over it. A shield forming around and me and it started to glow. But only I could see this and then it vanished a loud angry laugh sounded as the ground shook for about a few minutes but I was the only one feeling this..But then I looked back to Jonon and she gave me an odd look.

Then I sighed and started looking through more of the basement. Finding some old guns that haven't been used and a lot of ammo we both took the armor and ammo we found along with the guns and gave it all to the blacksmith and then after that..the ponies of the town bowed to me. I just stood there watching them not sure what to think.

But I gave a gentle smile because I knew they needed me to help them through their pain. But It would be along time before I even left cliff side to see what else this island has to offer me. But suddenly I was moved off my hooves and they carried me to the inn. The inn there was a party and a bunch of food for me to have and I just stayed on my own as the ponies and zebras well other creatures of this town cheered and were extremely happy to be freed. I didn't know what to think or what to do anymore at this moment. So I calmly drank and ate watching them party. I stayed in the darkness of the back room I didn't wish to cheer. I wanted to get home. I needed to see my family..I wanted to speak to the one that gave me the will to go on before she died.

But I had the owner of the bar and her wife sit at the same table as me. I looked up to them and they both smiled. They knew I didn't want to be a bother but Speckled and Paw pad just sat there looking at me with smiles on their faces. But Speckled finally spoke and being a salamander it was odd to me that she was married to a pony.

" Now little Star shooter we need you to stay longer in the town. I am sure many have told you that we need to rebuild. We need to be ready for you to leave. Because if we aren't ready just in case the Queen herself sends her guards to fight us..We will need you to stay here to face them." Looking towards the citizens of the town that came here to party but some just came here to relax and drink. It's something I knew that was going to happen. But looking towards the two.

" What do you need me to do then?" The two set down a list and I looked at it calmly reading down it. Along it is to get the fishing market of this little town up to snuff meaning I need to help build more boat's. Then check in with their doctor a doctor that seems to keep to himself a bit to much. Mainly stick around the town and upgrade update and do what I can for it. Looking through most of it. It seems I need to find a way to get a steady stream of food into it. But I would need to find out the best way to get a brew to help grow some gardens quickly. Then I looked through another part of the list. All that I need to do is train guards arm them feed the town. Find a way to get more fish. So I needed to stay here much longer then I wished..I didn't wish this and they could tell that on my face.

Looking towards the two and I gave a gentle smile. " I will do what I can for you.. I do know there is a large garden in the house up there..I will do some harvesting take the seeds to other gardens and try to get more gardens growing. But the thing that is going to be hard is to find enough guards to protect this place. But then I thought of Hawk.

" I got an idea for the captain of the guard for this town." Standing up out of the chair. All the citizens that could make it to the party looked at me. But then I sat back down and they got back to partying looking to Jonon bringing her over with a hoof.

" Jonon..please go to Hawk and tell him. I would like him to be the captain of the guard." Jonon gave a gentle bow. " Oh and I would like some you trust to protect the house while we are gone from here. We can't stay here forever. I need to find a way to get back to Equestria somehow."

She nodded and calmly slipped out. I just sat there watching the party go on. I was slipped a drink and It made my vision go strange and I don't know what I did but I partied through the night.

Unknown caves

I woke up in a strange bed and looked around and looked at the edge of the bed with a stallion on me and...I finally realized what happen. I tried to move away from him and felt so sore. I grunted getting out of the bed and slowly walked out of the house I was in. I found I wasn't even in town. But then I realized the reason i was sore. I felt pain in me and I finally woke fully. Seeing there was no stallion at all but I was held down by one of the Queen's powerful warriors. A large bug creature. I didn't know their names. But they seemed to be the cross of a cockroach and a cricket. He spoke chittering.

" Yes....the queen wishes to send..you a message child. Yes...a message." He rubbed his upper hands together as he held me down. " She knows what you did child yes. Now now, we can't have you go back for help. You will come with me and we shall hold you in jail for most of your life." He lifted me up and I groaned but i had to find a way to free myself. Having none of my weapons at all just my...Pip buck. I noticed I wasn't tied up and I was getting farther away from the town, but then it was hidden from the mist. Lifted up the pip buck and smashed it right into the back of his head over and over. He finally fell to the ground holding his head with his many hands. I ran off as he charged after me his wings spread out. Looking to my pip buck it was saying I couldn't find the map. But I got to the edge of a cliff and fell down screaming and the bug creature just stayed watching me fall and I vanished into the mist falling to my death. I hit the ground hard feeling so much pain..But only a few broken bones.

I couldn't even move and my vision blacked out.

Opening my eyes I was in a bed wrapped in bandages looking around. But it was a cave. I didn't know were i was I tried to move and groaned screaming in pain as the sound went out through the cave and I heard hissing and saw a salamander come towards me she had very fiery red scales and she seemed to exhale smoke came from her nose. She looked up to me.

"You're lucky to be alive little pony. You seem very far from home." I nodded, coughing a bit as it feels like one of my ribs had hit one of my lungs.

" i am...from Equestria...but i have been living the past few weeks in Cliff side..." The lizard nodded looking towards the way out of her cave.

" But you seemed to be on the run from something. But I shall go find someone from Cliff side that knows you." I watched while Blaze calmly walked out of her cave and I lay back in her bed closing my eyes for a bit..Then woke up hearing some buggy sounds...As a voice echoes in the cave.

" Oh...little pony I hear...you Cricket hears you oh yes...The queen wants you to play with her. It won't be so bad. " He then Gasped and laughed darkly. " OH it will be glorious." Feeling great fear I got out of the bed and didn't know how big this. But all that the creature had in here was a bed. Slowly I slipped into the cave it was pretty dark but I could hear him clicking along. I willed to let my magic vision see through. So I can see the magic of this island let me get to the way out. I kept hearing him speak with laughs and giggles.

" Oh little pony come and play oh I will not hurt you...Much!!" Groaning in so much pain. Every part of me was crying. I covered my mouth to muffle the coughing. I kept following the magic path to get out of the cave. Feeling so much pain fill me. I knew if he spotted me I would be dead. Slowly in pain using my weight to get on my wounds. But he and I weren't alone in this cave. The creature knew their way around it. But then I ran into something large and fuzzy. The creature turned to look at me and I saw it's evil eyes.

“OH Fucking Goddess” I said to myself it's a bear! I was scared to death but i had to run. As the bear roared and I tried to get away quickly.

" Now now Bear...that is my target." The bear turned to the bug and charged after him and he grabbed many swords in his six arms holding them in his hands and I heard them battle. But I kept running out. hear sinister laughing. " Wait little pony...don't you want to see the winner?!" My bandages started to bleed more if i wasn't careful I would pull something or cause something to bleed. The battle grew more and more distant but while I couldn't fully go quick. I knew the bug would be on me quickly. Finally I found a way out but I slipped and fell down a small drop and hit the ground more bones cracking and breaking but I could still walk well barley. I must have broke many of my ribs and I slowly could get away but suddenly the bug landed in front of me. He stared down at me with a large evil glare on his face chittering. I moved back as he walked towards me.

" Now now...little pony it would have been easy for you if you just came with me. The Queen wants to make an example of those that threatened her rule." He came closer to me as my butt was forced against the cave wall and I gulped, tears falling from my eyes. He swung one of his swords at me and I covered my eyes but I felt my horn glow and the sword was pulled from his hand he hissed and swinged another at me my magic grabbing it using two. Despite the pain I started fighting him but with so much pain i couldn't get away from the wall and tried to slice into him no luck. Jumping aside but i fell and dropped the swords he picked them back up and laughed.

" The Queen doesn't want you dead little pony." I started shaking was he came closer to me and started tying me up and gagging me. I wasn't going to be able to get out this time. But I heard a large lizard like growl and the salamander landed on the bug and breathed fire on him as he dropped me and Jonon rushed over looking me over and had a frown on her face.

" Stay there little Star shooter." She rushed to help the Salamander with the bug and he was kind of on fire. While Jonon quickly attacked him like she did me when we first met. Doing many of the zebra attacks that she taught me. I was lying here in so much pain knowing that I wouldn't be awake to see the winner..I Slowly started to black out as my vision started to darkened and then I finally passed out.

Doc's Office Cliffside

I am sure it's been a few days later I had no dreams and I woke in a bed I knew. Groaning a bit I sat up but i screamed loudly since I felt so much pain. But I wasn't in a bed i knew. I was in the bed of that doctor I was meant to meet. The doctor trotted in and stared at me.

"Shhh. Lay there child. You need to rest." I gave a nod and lay back. " You're extremely lucky that your friends found you when they did. I will let them talk to you. When you heal up, I got a task for you." Giving a weak nod, I lay back and he left as The lizard walked in so did Jonon they seemed no worse for wear. The salamander got on her back webbed feet and looked at me.

" I didn't give you my name little pony. I am Blaze..I have been told you are Star shooter, a hero. I shall come with you on your journey." I smiled softly nodding but laid back in so much pain.

"How come...i can't have potions?" Jonon sighed and nuzzled my neck a bit and smiled.

" The doctor feels it wouldn't heal you correctly so he used magic to fix your bones. Now he feels your body just need;s a bit of a rest." Giving a smile and then I wondered but I would ask when I wake up. Laying back down feeling so much pain as I tried to get just right. Blaze and Jonon did stay with me though. Closing my eyes and fell asleep. I slept have calm gentle dreams But dreams that didn't make anything important till..

Dreams

i could hear voices in my mind and they all said the same thing.

" He is coming...the great darkness is coming. Red eye's...pure red evil eye's. No pony will live no pony will live..All you know will die. he is coming the seal's have been broken. Repent allow the pact to control what you do and then maybe he will let you live poor little ponies."

Blinking I wanted to see what this creature was and I saw red eye's coming towards me with a dark evil laugh. But It kept coming and I had to run..i was running away as the eye's got closer and all i saw was a mouth opening up and very evil looking teeth trying to bite me. But I quickly got away and just heard dark evil laughter as I stopped turning to stare at the creature.

" Your princess couldn't stop me...Your world is weak...I will finally take over the world that stopped me the first time." The creature gives a dark smile."

Closing my eyes tightly trying to remove this creature from my brain and a flash of light blinded me and then when the light vanished a Alicorn stood there with a gentle smile. I couldn't believe who it was it was Celestia..But I know she wasn't really there..But there to protect my mind from harm. Bowing my head a bit closing my eyes and smiled.

" Thank you Goddess" She didn't speak but nodded with her gentle motherly smile and I slept soundly. I had no dreams but I knew I slept through the night.

Doc's Office

I woke up the next morning and slowly got out of the bed groaning and had to see what was going on but Blaze stood in front of the door and stared at me she seemed to block the entire door with her body and just kept staring at me. She didn't speak the one but with her tail she pointed back to the bed. Sighing I did what i was asked and she used her tail to her eye's saying she is watching me. Then went back around the corner of the door.

" I just...wanted to..." I said as i got back on the bed.

" Don't care.." Replied Blaze.

" But!" I countered back.

" No butts Star you need to rest..now do so before..I tie you down and have wild sex with you. Oh wait keep acting like that. It sounds like fun." She laughs. Gulping with a bright red face I lay back on the bed and waited for the doctor closing my eyes. " Come on Star I need some fun.." She said with a hissing giggle. My face turned so bright red. I could have been mistaken for a very red pony. But I cleared my mind and then tried to find a window..Standing on the bed trying to see outside. But there was no windows it was blocked and I tried to listen to the outside. But I heard nothing. Groaning and lay back down. As the doctor finally came in and smiled.

" Ah there we are...Now we found some potions and we can help heal you..But I would say don't do anything to crazy. But I do have a job for you. Now I know what you found in that cave. You found a bunker from the old war. I need you to go to the elevator that is in there and try to find any research on sickness here. Now you won't be going alone you will be going with Blaze..Jonon is needed here." Giving a nod and Blaze gave me a seductive smile. My cheeks started burning hotly. But then I shake my head and drank the potions i was given. I felt the bones and my body healing but still had a bit of pain.

Slowly got out of the bed and Blaze came over wrapping her tail around me and looked to the doctor.

" I will keep a good eye on her doc. Besides I want to make her my mate..so she needs to be alive for that." The doc laughed as I just blushed so red. She then pulled me along with her tail. I wasn't expecting this but It made me flattered very flattered. Going to my new home and i gathered my gear and I turned to look at Blaze.

" Um...what do you see in me that makes you want to well..you know." She looked to me and smiled softly and wrapped her tail around me tighter.

" Listen...I am sure you have been told that all sexes would be attracted to you for being the hero of the legend. Also I am willing to get to know you Star Shooter before I force you in bed and then do whatever your kind do to claim or marry whatever it is." My cheeks are bright red. I didn't know what to say but I felt maybe this is a good thing.

" But how did you know...I was this hero of legend?" I simply asked. Blaze looked at me with a gentle smile and gave me a long lick on my cheek making me blush bright bright red.

" I just simply asked your Zebra friend...Then asked if you have been taken already by anyone else." She said with a hissing smile and I started to feel that she would be good for me. " Besides..I have no one else..I am a outcast of the Salamander race..Because I didn't follow the queen's will. Besides your so cute when you blush." I was bright red and getting shy pawing the ground with my hoof. She was enjoying the effect she was having on me..She wrapped her tail around my neck and pulled me along.

" Come little hero. Lets not keep the doc waiting besides..When we get back i am going to show you how my kind dance.." She winked at me I looked so red that my normal fur color was. But I have a feeling she would be very protective of me and as we left she turned to me and gave me a deep kiss. It would be my ever first kiss and when she broke it unwrapping her tail around me and I fell on my face with a on air smile and she laughed at that. Slowly standing back up blushing still and Jonon walked into to see all this she just chuckled and whispered gently to Blaze and she nodded.

" Come Star Shooter." Smiled and calmly walked out of the house with my new friend.

Cave outside Bunker

" Then she died..giving birth.. She taught me so much before she passed. I was just eight when that happen. I miss her so much. But Things like this happen she saved us and saved me from dyeing." We were getting to know each other as we walked to the cave and into it. i felt I had a right to tell her what happen to Tiria and the rest of Equestria. I started to like her even if she was a bit forward with what she wanted. But maybe there would be love there. But when we got into the cave we stayed silent the lizard's even seemed to watch us..All the mushrooms have been removed for now.

Slowly we walked into the bunker and We had gas mask on..Just in case I saw that mouse again. It was interesting that one could fit her. But she kept her tail wrapped around me being extremely defensiveness of me at the moment. Blaze wanted me alive so she could give me what she called the night of pleasure and love. Of course she couldn't see the heat on my face. Because it was getting to the point I was very red..But now we needed to worry about what is in here..I went to the computer that controlled the elevator that went down the basement. From what I have been reading this project mouse created a lot of problems for the ponies in this bunker. But that's all I could get and then I powered the elevator back up and when the door open a body fell through well it was of bone's. But when it fell it just lay there. Looking to Blaze she just shrugged and wrapped her tail around me tighter and we both went inside the elevator. Clicking the button to let is go down. But of course Blaze started wrapping tighter around me to the point I felt so much pressure but of course she just spoke up.

" I am not letting my wife to be or whatever to get hurt..Besides i need you strong tonight." Again my face turned bright red. It was becoming crazy at the fact that she wanted me this badly. I never thought a non pony would fall in love with me. But again we had to concentrate on what what happen here. But I removed the mask it was getting on my nerves and I looked to Blaze. I gave her just a gentle smile.

Inside Bunker

The elevator finally opened and down here we found an large lab. Also it seemed to be made to house an entire army. But more of the bodies with the green substance around and looking around on the walls. Seeing beware of Project Mouse. Project Stop watch and Project Mech. Blinking and thinking to myself three projects and why did they worry about Hawk? Maybe Hawk did something they don't remember. But Blaze asked the most interesting question.

" Project Mouse?" She just gave a shrug of her shoulders and we started to look around for research on sickness. It seems they didn't have any security down here to protect the well whatever was placed down here. But again it seemed most of whatever was down here killed all the ponies that lived in here. The two of us went through this and I noticed a screen showing live of a Ghoul detective seeming to be with his friends in a strange mountain area and A zebra mare with heavy robotic hooves and her friends seeming to fight some war not far from Detrot. But it just seems they change every now and then. Then I saw the big 52 then...went to the hoof and the rest of the world. It's getting interesting. Why would this be used to spy? But how could it spy with...

" Wait a moment..." I looked closer. Suddenly, I realized that this was all ten years ago. What is happening is all that happened ten years ago somehow they are receiving stuff from ten years ago. Then it changed again showing Tiria fighting for camp that is her home and I froze...staring at the one that inspired me...Tears formed in my eyes. Blaze looked at the screen then back at me..Then back at the screen..

" Star Shooter...it's the past you need to move on." Giving a nod I answered back.

" I have...just watching the past when i was so young...While all this was going on is crazy to me. But...how can they be getting all this ten years later." Then it was fuzzy and it said interference from an outside force. Next window three years from now. " The spell is blocking the rest. So this has been going on for every three years. I am sure they were able to watch the world die in here. " Clicking on some buttons and I got a recording with a video.

" We just...saw Equestria burn...the war is over...We need to tell the captain..It's been three years since then..Oh Goddesses to damn this island..We are stuck here while are families are maybe dyeing.." In the background there are ponies sobbing and no pony doing anything. Clicking the next one about project mouse but all I found is what it's meant to be a mining robot. That's all really. Then nothing else after it. Clicking on another and there was screaming and ponies dyeing.

" Some..thing..Cough...cough. Is..down here killing us." Then the image died..but the scream's didn't and it all went dead. That happened 100 years ago. Whatever this was caused them all to die. Looked to Blaze and gave her a nod using my magic to pull out my sword. Calmly walking along the room to see what we can find. Looking through some of the housing that is down here..But all we found are beds. Then we saw a sign saying research. Nodded to Blaze with a gentle smile and we went inside the room that held the research. Looking through it we found old vial's with fluid still in them. I took them and placed them into my bag. Blaze started looking through stuff as well but as we did. I noticed more of those little mice robots. But they seemed to avoid us. I watching them digging and placing ore everywhere but then they released a strange fluid not far from us..But I couldn't smell it this time. But I was asked to take anything. Grabbing one of the vial's that the doc gave me and placed it in and then capped it putting it into my bag's and Blaze found some research papers but there wasn't much left it's like everything melted but as we looked around more of those robotic mice started surrounding us but they didn't do much but seem to move around.

Calmly the two of us walked through the research and I wanted one of these mice..But i doubt it would have been a good idea. Leaving the room more mice showed up and they started to stare at us with strange sounds coming from them like their speaking to each other. One of them sprayed on the ground right near my hooves and I could now smell it and I started getting dizzy but I noticed that Blaze didn't get affected by it. She forced my mask back on me and the dazing went away but i did have some scar's. She grabbed me with her strong tail lifting me u p to keep me away from the slime. Then I saw that she started to breath fire to destroy these mice. Some down burn but more are made from a strange hole that came from the research and she carried me far away from these creature's. For some reason these mice wanted us dead but she tripped on something in the middle of the floor and I flew over the mice and landed right into the elevator door. But she rushed over to me and burned whatever got near her. She then rushed to me lifting me up with her tail clicking the elevator and we both waited as she lifted me up to keep me away from the little creature's

It finally came down and we rushed in and she held me close and tight against her she wasn't letting me go. But she removed her tail and removed my mask and looked me over to see if there is any more wounds and all I could do was blush bright red.

" Alright you seem alright...Now lets get this stuff to the doc and then we can go back to your new place and get to know each other..Then I can please you all night." Pawing the floor with my hoof again. But when the elevator open there were no more of those mice. But we needed to block this building off from the rest of the creature's of this island..

Slowly walking out of the bunker and I sighed calmly closing my eyes and breathed deeply smelling the fresh air and had a smile on my face as we walked back out of the cave to go to the doc.

Cliffside

We walked through the town and hawk calmly patrolled near us but then I stopped.

" Hawk...do you know what Project Mouse is?" Hawk turned looking down at me and the hydraulics steamed a bit while the robotic creature just looked at me or I thought it did with strange camera's looking at me.

" Project Mouse..was made to be a mining Project I don't know much about it..But when I was active they went everywhere that cave you see now over there..Was created by them. It took them awhile but then I was shut down after a year or so."

Giving a nod, Then hawk slowly walked away. Looking back to the cave sighing a bit but Blaze sneaked in a deep kiss on my lips and I just seemed to stand there like I was frozen and she smirked.

" Come on hero lets go before you forget we need to get to know each other..Before I make you mind..fully." She winked my cheeks burning bright red as we walked back to the doctor and when we got in. I set down my bags for him to look through.

"Hmmm interesting not much here but they did seem to create some interesting things down there. What else did you find down there?" Thinking before speaking and then looked back to him.

" We found warnings of three project's Project Mech..what hawk is..Project Stopwatch having no idea what that is and Project Mouse." I answered back. He thought a moment and brought out the green fluid looking at it closely and thought a moment.

" I will do some test on this subtense it seems extremely deadly..So I will wear a mask." Giving a nod and he placed many gold coins in my bag. Smiling calmly looking to Blaze who just stayed away to let me do my job and then I looked back to him.

" Alright Doc might be best to tell the citizens to stay away from the bunker. But it is a good area to grow mushrooms. But for now tell them to avoid the bunker as much as they can..There are to many of those robotic mice in that Bunker." Doc gave a gentle smile nodding to that.

" But being a Doc called Doc it's a interesting way to be helpful. Now go enjoy yourself. it seems Blaze has some ideas in that mind of hers." My face turned bright red as he laughed. She wrapped her tail around my neck.

" Yes..I do have some ideas but..I need to get to know her first." She said with a smirk pulling me along with her tail and all i could do was follow Doc laughed softly. She lead me back to my new home and all I could do was stutter and not able to speak..I could tell she wouldn't take no for an answer.
