Fallout Equestria: RainFall
Chapter 73: Chapter Sevenity-Four: Hawk {Meanwhile Arc]
Previous Chapter Next ChapterDo you wish to learn about a former terrorist turned mech with just a brain in a dome? I am known as Hawk I was named Hawk even during the old days. I was very anti-war and anti-noble. I hated what the princess did to us and the fact Celestia caused many children to die, I get it war is war. But those I led refused to allow it to keep happening. It would be one of those days when we knew what would happen. I had my life taken from me because of what they did to me. I was given a fake past with Starlight. So I wouldn’t remember and now I can explain what happened fully.
Written by Hawk.

The hero returns
I haven’t been given my new body yet. My husband told me my new body wouldn’t be ready till the end of the war. I stood beside my family well. I got to know the judge, a descendant of one of those who worked under me during the old days. From what I learned from him he told me his family still knew I was alive. He became a judge to ensure what happened to me doesn’t happen to anyone else. He did say to me that my methods during the past weren’t the best idea but he would have done the same.
I turn my cams over to Gavel. I remember his family well and those who came before him. I wish I could understand what happened to them but he never told me. He told me they were treated better than I was and told me his family turned on me and why I was turned into this. When he learned this it's why he became a judge so it wouldn’t happen again.
“Gavel I hope you’re ready to deal with Ruby. I no longer have any respect for her. She is going to expect us to fight in her war.”
Gavel chuckles.
“You should fight in this war because if you don’t the ability to live here is going to be harsher even if Wheel Treads methods are what a business pony would be doing like in the past. Sometimes we must allow ourselves to progress even if the moment is not as simple as most see it.”
I wish I could groan and sigh but I can't. I could feel my anger build. It’s like all they gave me and I know my husband is trying to give me a body that will give me an ability to feel love and all the other emotions again. Even if I feel love around him right now, it’s rare at times.
“I wish I could agree with Gavel. It’s harder than you think to want to accept it. I don’t want to be there to help her at all. I miss my old friendship with her. Now I won’t even be able to look at her like I used to. The others refuse to want to fight for her but we have to. We are forced to since this is now our home. The island is no longer our home. Many of those who lived on the island want to come here now.”
Gavel sighs.
“I need to warn you, Hawk. After this is over the leadership of the NCA wants this land taken over by them and brought into the fold. I need you to be like you are when they try. Try to force them out. I will be leaving after my task.”
I turn my cams over to Gavel. I knew I couldn’t trust the NCA, it's something I never will trust. I will never trust anyone in power again. After what happened to me in the past. It’s not something I can handle. I was about to say something.
“Here they come!!”
I turn my cams to follow the heads of everyone else I see the airship coming towards the way to land. It’s seen better days. There are so many scars on the old wood it looks like it’s ready to fall apart it’s pretty normal sadly. When the airship lands it falls apart and It will take time for them to come out. I look over to Majesty who turns her eyes to me. I could tell she was happy to see me. I remember fighting her. I remember fighting with the heroes of legend. But my path is how I see it now. I look back on what happened to me.

Hawk during the war.
How I was during the war Beezen wants to know more about what went on in my life. My life went through a lot of problems during the war. I lost most of my family because of the war and I had many zebra friends who had to be placed in camps. The words of those who placed them in the camps. We need to accept them in these camps for the value of pony life. I didn’t care for those answers; many who I knew did the same.
It took time but we started to get more and more angry at the government and the war. So I gathered who I could and we met at an old run-down theater and we used it as our hideout. Many have been displaced thanks to the Storm King attack many years earlier and thanks to when so many issues started happening after that it caused more things in this world to fall apart.
“We are all gathered here today to become what is needed. We gather our hope and then we wish to end this war our way.”
I watch the pony speak. I don’t get why there is this speech we should just do what we need to. Ending this war won’t be as simple as blowing things up. We need to prove the war is causing more with the pony way of life. But it’s never going to be that simple. I stood up from my seat.
“We get it we are here because of everything the war has caused. But there are better ways to do this than blowing places up. We need to choose a leader and we need to make sure our leadership will be the best.”
The pony turns to look at me and the entire ground looks at me and I just stare at them. Why are they staring at me? Do they want to make me a leader? I am the daughter of a former guard. I don't know anything about being a terrorist. I wanted to argue but I saw all the eyes staring at me. I knew it, I knew this would happen.
I stood up on my hooves, took a deep breath, closed my eyes tightly, and looked up at the others standing at the podium. I look at all the eyes staring at me there are even children here and this is all about our future
“I don’t know how to say all this, my friends. But we hope that we know what is to come. If we don’t fight correctly we might not make a dent in the war effort. But even if we do this it might not work at all.”
Even after that they still cheer. So we did what we had to. We went through many bombs and we caused many issues with our supply lines. Everything we did caused the Equestrian ponies to hate us more and we had one more job to do. We wanted to force the Hippogriffs out of this war. So this was the best choice we could make.
The plan was sound: we would gather many allies within the land itself. But this is what caused us to fail. Many of them backed out and even warned the others of what was happening so they knew we were coming. We had our meeting before we left.
“It seems many of the allies we made turned on us and then warned the guards we were coming. But they never told them our looks and our names. You know this is the only chance we have and if we do this it will break their ability to go to war.”
The ponies nod.
“I know many of you are getting scared of this task. We have done it for so long now. It's all most of us know now. I don’t feel I can do anything else myself. But I think the path we follow is this. I expect myself to die.”
I look over Hammer who is Gavel's great-grandfather. He from what I am told is the only one who survived and was free from this entire thing. He turns on us and makes it so it's harder for us to fight for our lives. I didn’t understand then but he saved us from watching the world end. Well, I saw the world end no matter what twice.
I am unhappy I am even writing all this again and the fact I am remembering all this. I never wish to remember again but my husband found a way for me to remember and I wish I could stop myself from remembering.
“Now Hammer, you have everything set up?’
Hamer gave a quick nod.
“Yes, they found a way to get all the bombs and supplies there before they gave up and had cold hooves. Now they wish to not do this anymore and they promised they wouldn’t turn on us. But they did warn others to make sure no children get hurt.”
Once we all had the idea we did it. We didn’t do many things around this time. The last few things we did we tried to destroy weapons and mostly we caused weapons to stop being made for at least a few weeks. But this could cause an entire ally to pull out of this pointless war. Deep down though I wish I never did this.
It was the day we did it. The freedom from the Storm King they did their celebration and now it was the best time to do so. When we set off our bomb it caused so many problems. I was caught in part of the blast. I didn’t get hurt just the shockwave of it tossed me into the water causing me to get the wind knocked out of me.
But others died and Hammer was the only one who didn’t do anything. I learned later he was the one who was betraying us and it didn’t only work. The Hippogriffs broke off from Equestria altogether because of the deaths.
Of course, I wouldn’t know that I was forced into a program soon after and all I remember is them making a spell to make it look like Starlight was turning on me. Mainly my life is what you see as I write this. You all know from the other stories I was found by Star Shooter. I am not going much deeper into this. Just you have to understand if I did my life would be destroyed. Many enemies would read these books and I don’t know when this book will be finished. But no more.

The end.
I come back after remembering and I watch Ruby come down from the ship. She looks so much stronger. I worry what is going to happen to her. I know full well what is going to happen. I will turn on her and the others will too. I can’t breathe, I can't feel and all I know is that my friend is going to die. I watch Pinda take her way. I stand by the others and her new friends. I turn my cams to see her new friends.
I see a yellow mare.
“Cranberry, why are they taking my wife?’
When I heard those words, wife? She got married, she finally has a life and we are about to destroy it. Gem comes down and puts her arms around Cranberry before they even speak and we all watch while the hero of the stars or so-called hero is taken away. Standing beside us is the Storm King.
“I wish I could tell you what is going to happen but we all know what is going to happen. The war will be soon after she is given the riot act by the NCA. Just remember my friends this war you can win. I will be heading back and waiting.”
The Storm King leaves with his guards and we watch while the other judges follow me and I just watch while the goat watches me. I can see him and now I know why so many get upset. I see the red mist. The battle is starting and it will start soon.
