Rebirth of True Madness
Chapter 1: Chapter One - Death and Rebirth(Old)
Load Full Story Next ChapterIt's been a great day today, managed to FINALLY get the last of the tech from MBORF and BIO INT. Jesus Christ it took me forever to get my hands on it all. Even managed to get my hands on a syringe of cervical armor that I'm working on and it's nearly done! Just a minute more and I'll have my own set of cervical armor. Heh.... sad part is, is that it took me a good bit of time after the projects OMEGA, XERO, KARY, ASKAD, happened to of died to get these damn things. Least it was worth it, 3 years after XERO and Omega fought Kary and all of them dying, I finally have it....
In case you're wondering, yes, I'm a woman in a world of madness, I stand at about 7 feet 2 inches tall, thank my father for that, and I happen to have green hair ( Side effect of some of my genetic engineering on my own body, heh... kinda like Kary-08 ) along with green eyes, and actual more carnivorous and incredibly sharp teeth in my mouth ( No idea how THAT happened with the genetic modifications, ah well, I didn't lose anything, so, pure bonus am I right? ). On top of that, I'm very well well endowed and proud of it! EE cup breast size for my frame! and I happen to be an excellent sniper / markswoman, and one of the best infiltrators and hackers in the world. Now with cervical armor added to the mix.... lets see ANYONE TRY to stop me from hacking their stuff or even someone try to SEE me now! I've got my cervical armor to have a light bending modification so that I can't be seen by human eyes and I even have a heat dispersal and cooler tech added so thermal isn't gonna do SHIT against me! So I can't be SEEN by the eye OR by thermal! Along with a lot of other features such as boots that allow 100% silent movement, as in, literally, I SLAMMED the bottom of these damn things on the ground and NO sound at all, period. Along with boosts to my hacking skills so that I can literally hack with a thought when I'm wearing the armor and Jesus Christ am I glad I got the cybernetic augments kinda like the Bolverk squad did. Had to do it via a machine and a lot of luck, but it worked out perfectly!
During the time that I began gathering the weapons that the Bolverk Squad used, I managed to re-create most of them, sans a few that I REALLY didn't want to mess with, such as Omega's Bloody Doll, the Loner / Longinus knives, The Executer, Sawer, hollow, red hill, Blood wire (Somewhat), Nightstar, Petrol silhouettes... and that's it for what I HAVEN'T made.
Other than that, I've made all of them, some, with a LOT of tweaking to work with my current strength and such, but eh?
I'm currently in my hacking / gaming room as yes, I'm a gamer, and I tend to get transmissions on a nearly if not impossibly hard to figured out type of transmission with a password that is... well, over 300 characters long. Yes, I have it written down, but no, I don't have to look at it as I can recite the whole thing from my memory. I also changed it every month to keep some people off my ass or after I get contacted by someone. Only those who know how to properly contact me are able to learn of it as it happens to have a rather complex system required to access it or else the files delete themselves from it. Recently got a job, so I'm expecting a transmission soon. I also tend to have a fairly large TV moniter for this, 72 inch about 9 feet away from where I sit normally and facing towards my back when I'm on the computer hacking, but I have a mirror on my desk to peak on it every once in a while to ensure no one hacked through, even though, my system warns me every time someone gets into the transmission, but can't be TOO careful in my line of work.
ACTIVATING TRANSMISSION! Yeah, lets hope this one pays a LOT more than the last, seriously, if I get tricked outta my money ONE more time I'm going to be writing a little thing that, you try to trick me outta my money, you'll end up DEAD!
A man appears on the screen, and just like all of the other males of this god forsaken hell hole of a planet, his face is not shown, but I can see a 5'o clock shadow plainly visible and the cross that makes up his 'face', but I can tell from his body language that he is rather angry.
" Catherine-" OH FUCK! HE KNOWS MY ACTUAL NAME! I USE A CODE NAME THAT IS UNIQUE FOR EVERY PERSON I DEAL WITH! "- you have been caught stealing from both of our companies-" AW FUCK! YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS! THOSE FUCKS CAUGHT ME?! "- and have a simple choice, either die, or hand over our technology and any you've made with it and all information on the projects of the 'bulverk squad' and have your brain scrubbed. Your choice. " Well fuck... die, or hand it over and have my mind wiped? Fuck, that. I'm betting they got... AH HA! Yep, over 500 men outside my bunker. Cutting through the doors now, I'm dead either way, I'm going to ENSURE they NEVER get this tech ever again, as whenever I stole from Bio INT or MBORF or any other huge company that had insanely dangerous things hidden / secret, I deleted every single file after I copied them to me... guess I don't have any other choice here, sayonara Suckers!
I tell that damn fucker one, simple, thing. "I know you'll just kill me, so you know what asshole?" his posture shifts, in a way I can tell means 'Huh?' "If I go down, I'M TAKING YOU FUCKS WITH ME!" I lift a hatch on my desk and it shows a button that says 'Kamikaze!' I press the button...
And it all turns to darkness.
Then, I see... my life? and the lives of... others? No no… friends? No no! That one doesn't even take place on this planet! Then could it be my futures? No... those were already lived... they were my PAST LIVES! Replaying like a damn movie in front of my eyes! I remember it all! Pandora... the protectorate.... the zone... the green flu... the dovahkin...and so many more... all of these memories, now here like as if they always were, which, I guess is true since my soul has been through each of them, hell of an experience if I say so myself.
I hear someone clearing their throat, and turn around to see the one thing that many dread, the Messor, the Reaper, the Pale one themselves, Death. Scythe, and all. They seemed... indifferent? It's hard to read something that you can't even see the bodily language of, though, I can see their eyes... Glowing red, bioluminescent, iris's that have no pupil, jesus Christ what would I have to do for eyes like THAT?! They were tapping their finger on a rather nice desk. I walk up and sit down in the chair that is in front of them. They speak "Ah, Catherine, you're just on time, bit earlier than I thought though. Now, down to business. I want to say that you're not the first I've picked for this, and you're CERTAINLY not the ONLY one who has had this happen to them as other beings have done similar things as to what I'm going to offer you for other people."
I tilt my head to the side, wondering just what death could possibly offer me or other people. Insanely curious, I motion for them to continue. "I'm offering you a 2nd chance at life, and no, I do not mean it like how most mortals see it, I mean with all the memories you had, and have now gained, intact. As in, you remember it all. Now I have my own reasons as to why I want to do this with you, but because there is a few issues cropping up in some universes that needs a bit of... shall we say, cleaning up."
"What do you mean by that?" I ask with a slight frown, wondering if said universes were messed up by fucking evil assholes that I'd enjoy putting a bullet through their heads or something else.
"You'll get a 2nd chance, and you'll have quite some time to prepare for it as you'll become immortal, and when I say that, I mean you'll no longer age once you reach your prime / stop growing, no longer require food or water to stay alive, but it will feel as if you're in a mortal body, and, that I quote'that won't fucking die inspite that it feels like every centimeter of your insides is on fire and your skin is dryer than a desert and your stomach feels like a fucking black hole' if you don't eat and drink normally, and be completely immune to ALL disease sans a VERY few that, if you encounter them you'll have a way to deal with them, and get to kill some of the most horrid beings to exist in said universes, are so, would you like to be reborn? Or would you rather pass on and miss this opportunity?"
I'm staring, yet nod my head simply dumfounded by what just I just heard. Being reborn, getting to remember everything, there being others out there like me out there having had the same circumstances occur, AND getting to kill some of the most horrid things AND living forever? Jesus Christ... this can't be true, if it IS true then this is INSANELY AWESOME! Sounds like a thing I'll take for sure! Fuck passing on. "If what you're saying is damn well true, I'm in, I just want to be told a few things, firstly, what am I going to become? PLEASE don't tell me I'm going to be a type of talking bipedal lizard or snake or something like that, I know from reading about it shedding and scales can SUCK! I'd rather have wings and have to deal with preening honestly."
Death looks at me with an interested gaze for a few moments then starts to seemingly hold back a chuckle or laugh. "What's so funny Bones?" Instantly I find a scythe blade right next to my neck as the air turns near absolute zero.
DO NOT CALL ME THAT! YOU DO NOT KNOW JUST HOW MUCH IT PISSES ME OFF![/] Death SCREAMED at me. I jump back and nearly scream in fright.
"I'm Sorry! I didn't know! I should've figured that people who meet you call you that a lot!" I instantly notice that death's just sulking afterward. "I'm really sorry, alright? Please, forgive me for that, I didn't know." I replied, hoping I hadn't lost this opportunity and chance.
"You could've NOT said it, though, and you BETTER make sure to NEVER say it again, I will KNOW if you DO say it if it's directed at me. Even if it's a joke as it makes me angrier than you could believe, your chance isn't lost, nor have I decided to change anything about it, but I WILL make sure you suffer for eternity if you say that towards or about me EVER AGAIN! Do I make myself CLEAR?! "
I nod rapidly in utter fear and I think I pissed myself. I look down and no, I didn't. Oh wait, I wouldn't even be able to tell if I did on the outside as I'd feel the warmth of it, as... well... I wear adult diapers quite often due to not being able to get up or quickly go to the bathroom in my line of work and that I drink a lot of liquid and tend to eat things that tend to give me bad gas that tends to equal having to get up every 5 minutes to make sure I don't shit my panties / pants / you know what I mean and well... I'm a serious gamer at times, not including the fact that sometimes when I've infiltrated a building I got in there due to time constraints ( When I can safely exit and enter ) and have to hide in a spot for too long to hold it and couldn't risk leaving a DNA sample, plus, I find them comfy, and VERY arousing when wet and / or filled and would've LOVED to of had a girlfriend or boyfriend that liked them as well, what? I'm Pansexual as well but I do prefer women slightly over men, but now isn't the time to go into my fetishes, is it? AS that ain't even the start.
Death seems to of calmed down and begins speaking again"Very well, for a little more information on what will happen to you, you will be reborn completely. As in, you literally will wake up still INSIDE your mother a few minutes before she births you, and that, you may or may not have the same color scheme you have now.
I'm not sure on that part, and that, your body will be VASTLY different as opposed to a normal being's body of that world, oh, and yes, I know your fetishes-" I blush scarlet at that "-and that, I'll have it set so you can carry them out. All of them in the ways you'd want and even some you wouldn't, in fact, and yes, THAT one too-" I'm already redder than a tomato at this point "-Along with the fact that, due to the timing, you're going to be the first born Futanari / hermaphrodite in that world, as in, yes, feminine body with both sets of genitalia, and I'm fairly certain you'll like the race you'll end up as, however, I'm not going to spoil it for you and quit blushing, I don't want you to be a near incoherent jabbering mess while I try to explain things to you.
He waits a few minutes for my blush to go down. "Now, for a quick little guide book for this. You're going to be known as a displaced, short for, dimensionally misplaced, yes, I know, it should be universally misplaced, but unisplaced, didn't really work due to, well obvious reasons. I giggle a slight bit and nod at that.
"Well, as a displaced, you get sent to a world called equestria, said world, happens to contain multiple different races, but not like humans oh no! I mean Minotaurs, Griffons, Dragons, and much more. And each one of the races I mentioned and more are sentient AND sapient, similar to humans." I am wide eyed at this, DRAGONS?! GRIFFONS?! MINOTAURS?! THAT ARE AS SMART AS HUMANS?! WHAT ELSE! I WANNA KNOW!
Death looks at me and chuckles a bit, before continuing. "Now, the important part of this, is that each equestria tends to have between bits and pieces to nearly all of said person or being they get displaced as world(s). For example. If someone were to be displaced there as someone from borderlands, more than likely, but not always, that equestria would actually be like Pandora, but different in, well, obvious and some not so obvious regards. As one such example. Deaths looks to me like 'Did you catch that?' I nod and motion for them to continue.
"However, due to how you are and how I'm doing this, ALL of your previous lives will affect this equestria. Not when you're born, but in the future..... it's up for debate as to which one will appear, sans for the first one, which I've been able to narrow down to 4 of them. The Wasteland. Skyrim / Tameriel. Pandora / borderlands. Or The Zone. You got that? I nod once more and am starting to shake outta my seat in excitement. I can't wait for this.
"Calm down please, I don't want to have to explain this again.... Now displaced are capable of summoning other displaced through the use of tokens. Said tokens, can take the shape of anything, but tend to be an item that represents that displaced. Some are paragons, some are good. Some are Infamous, some are just evil or mean. It varies quite wildly. You to, can make your own token. But you must wait until you're 16 to do so. That way, you'll more than likely be able to tackle whatever summons you or whoever or whatever you summon unless it's VERY powerful. Well, I believe it is time to send you off to your new life! He exclaimed with a sorta cheerful tone. Everything started to turn lighter colors around us. Then, suddenly, once it became near blindingly bright, I black out....
Transition -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wake up. It warm, soft, fleshy, comfy just about and it's pitchblack. 'Ah shit, I'm in the womb, aren't I? Well fuck, few minutes ain't that...….' I hear a loud scream and muffled voices. I feel my body being pushed. 'Well fuck! Here we go! Or should I say OUT we go! He he! Oh jesus this is gonna be loud ain't it?' I hear more screams, panting, and yelling, it's starting to get clearer.
"Keep pushing! She's almost out!" I hear what I bet is a doc speaking.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK I"M TRYING TO DO YOU IDIOTIC BAFFON?! IT ISN'T AS EASY AS YOU THINK IT IS! YOU TRY PUSHING A BABY OUT OF YOUR DICK AND TELL ME HOW IT FEELS! GRAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" JESUS CHRIST! MY MOTHER HAS A SET OF PIPES ON HER! MY EARS ARE RINGING AND I'M NOT EVEN BORN YET! HOLY FUCK!
Moments later, I hear an even louder scream ( couldn't believe that! ), then I'm blinded by bright light, and the exclamation "It's a... uh... miss? You might want to see this." Then they hold me and show off my privates to what I assume to be my mother and father as I hear two gasps. Then I'm cleaned and wrapped up. Then put into my mothers arms. What I see, surprises me, somewhat. Rather than the floating handed homo sapiens of my previous life's world, these people have arms and legs, rather than just hands, feet, torso, and head with a very small if nearly no neck. But that's not the only thing! They look like... Antro? Anthro! That's right, Anthro... horses? Ponies? Something like that. And holy hell! Their eyes are HUGE! My father is some sort of... Bat... Horse? Pony? Hybrid thing, as I can see bat wings on him, but woah! His eyes look cool Slit pupils and iris's! Hope I got those! His... coat, aw crap, a COAT?! That's gonna make handling sticky stuff a hell of a lot harder! Ah well... no more caramel or chocolate fountains for me... anyways, his coat is a darker grey, kinda closer to black just about with black hair and golden eyes? Now my moth....er… woah.. Near white if not white color coat with Crimson red Slit eyes that are just like my fathers sans color with black hair, but the odd thing is she has a HORN on her head! A curved one at that! Woah.. I love this world already!
"Ma'am, we have no idea what happened. Your.....Child. Is both male AND female at the same time, as we saw a complete vagina behind the scrotum and penis. I haven't heard of this happening before, ever. What do you make of it, Doctor Remedy?" So Doctor Remedy huh? What, so their entire family line last name is Remedy? Wonder how that started?'
"Well heart, I do not have any clue unfortunately, however, I need-" unfortunately, everything else passed by in a haze, I got a few words here and there, but otherwise, I couldn't tell what happened other than having to breast feed. The only words I got were: Alicorn, Hermaphrodite, Stable, Home, Unicorn, Pegasus, Ponies, Magic, and a few others not worth mentioning. And I do NOT like breast feeding, It was irritating and it tasted sub par compared to cow milk... I already miss cow dairy..... Ugh... I have to put up with a sub par milk taste AND having to breast feed for 6 months or possibly more... perfect...
At the very least, I know my mother's and father's name. Midnight Rhythm and Astral Symphony respectively. Very interesting names if I say so myself. Must be music players. Wonder what name they gave me? Maybe they couldn't decide? I wonder.... well, hopefully I can keep myself awake long enough to find out. The haze starts to fade and I see we're in a somewhat decently sized town. Just about a city I think judging by how far the walls are away. Must be medieval times or some such. Well... fuck, this means I gotta be VERY careful about what I say. I mean VERY careful. I can't talk TOO intelligently or reveal anything past what they've got right now, or else they'll get suspicious. And holy hell! Why is everything SO loud?! I must have insanely good hearing. My vision? is AMAZING! Better than it ever has been! But of which, I notice we're nearing an alleyway and I hear something, and I feel what I bet are the ears on the sides of my head move, swivel around to be facing the sound. It sounds like.... "*Sob* No... please..*Sob* no..." Oh fuck! Someone's either about to be murdered or raped! I look up at my parents and see my father looking at the alleyway with a VERY angry expression.
He turns around and looks into my mothers eyes. "Honey, go get the guard, I've got a problem in that alleyway that needs solving." my mother nods and briskly walks off ( Running with a newborn? That is NOT a good idea ) and the last thing I catch is my father pulling a knife out of a sheathe and advancing towards the alleyway.
My mother gets to a guard within 20-30 seconds and tells them the situation, the guard looks far different from my mother and father, with a feathered Eagle head and chest and a more feline lower and talons for hands, that was all I could see. This must be a Griffon! He whistles very loudly and it hurt my ears, a lot. I can tell it hurt my mom's ears as well. Then within 5 seconds 3 more show up and start to head over toward the alleyway, but we all hear a scream and they go fucking foot in the carburetor and fly off at speeds that I honestly didn't think they could get to that quickly with wings.
When we arrive at the alleyway... something had happened. My father is lying there, a crossbow bolt sticking out of his right side. He's still moving and the bolt seems to be in a non fatal area, so long as he doesn't pull the bolt out. He stands up and walks over to my mother and I and speaks with some pain in his voice "Took care of the damn rapist... he won't be anywhere but in a six feet deep hole now." My mother frowns but stays her tongue.
My mother goes up to him and hugs him. "What happened to the woman he tried to rape Astral?" My father looks down, ashamed... I knew that look, he couldn't get there before the rapist finished and probably got the woman pregnant.... damnit... I hope they don't try to abort it with what tech they seem to have right now. That'll probably kill her if they try. Unless they got some kind of magic to do it for them. Ugh... well, great, eyelids are getting too heavy again... I just smile at my mother and father, then fall asleep once again. I doubt my body should be doing this that much though.
Transition a few hours------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wake up in a room that is about 8 feet wide by 10 feet long, with a bit of furniture but other than that not really note worthy and I'm looking through crib bars. I see a lot of baby toys and such all around, yeah.... I may be into diapers, but fuck that. I'm a DL not an AB. So no thanks! Guess I'll just have to relax and do whatever I can to do something fun. Hmm.... my mother and father aren't around, I'm guessing that they're outside the room. Lets see what can I get into... wait, cubes with letters on them? YES! May be a childs toy, but THAT is one I CAN have fun with! Spelling the word 'Fuck' anyone?
Hmm.... how to go about getting out of this crib lemme see.... ornate wood, well made, AH HA! Deep grove, right at the end of it. Big enough to stick my foot... hoof, in, I think? Dunno how well it'll work with... hooves.. for feet, but I can manage. Now lets try to stand.... *Pumf* Damnit, can't even fucking STAND yet! Going to have to work REALLY hard on this. As if I don't, it'll be HELL for a long time. As normally, human kids tend to take until at LEAST 9 months to be able to walk. But ponies... aren't horses able to walk just a short while after they're born? I think they are, aren't they? So if that's playing to my advantage, coupled with the fact that I'm actively TRYING TO WALK...… 2 weeks - 5 months by my guess.... Before I can walk or even STAND. Roughly. Fuck damnit that's probably going to be a long time in this case..... FUCK! Oh well, I don't think I SHOULD try standing up anymore, as while HUMAN infants are fragile, I don't know how fragile or how tough I am right now. Well, I suppose I've got to figure out how to do SOMETHING! Hmm... wait, foot.. no hoof steps approaching the door.
I hear my mother speaking "So, what should we do? Tell the solar tyrant?! I'd RATHER we keep her hidden and hope that if she IS found out by one of her major supporters that KNOWS what she's doing to the thestral race that she isn't taken and us executed for being what we are?" wait WHAT?! Solar tyrant?! Who the hell is that?! Crap... must be the ruler of the country I'm in... and wait, it's TOO easy to read between the lines there. THE TYRANT IS PLANNING ON FUCKING GENOCIDE?! Ok, look, I never played the undertale genocide run, I never COULD do so due to all the fan fic's I've read, and jesus christ and I happy I didn't, considering the multiverse... but the solar tyrant won't be so tough at night! They'll be weakest then! I'll get revenge for the thestral race! Just you wait! But because my mother and father are thestrals… fuck so am I. That ain't good.
My father replies to my mother in quite a grim tone" I know, but the town has seen her, and I'm sure that damn supporter of hers knows now as well, we're barely in the P.O.W category for these types of things and I'm still surprised the tyrant let me keep my knife on me, but with our child... this isn't going to be easy, but we'll get through it. Now, I've already gotten everything packed and ready to go at a moments notice. If we get attacked or they demand to see our child, just RUN. I'll have to at least try to hold them off so you and our child can have a possible life. As I'd rather DIE than see my child taken." Woah.... well shit, talk about protective. Then again, that is sorta expected from a parent. Well, lets see if they... *Knob turning* called it.
My Mother and Father walk into the run and see me looking at them as soon as they walk in. They smile brightly and I attempt to smile back. Course, it's just a toothless little grin. They say some stuff that I kinda don't pay attention to. As jesus christ my stomach is already hurting a bit. And perfect.... breast feeding, again... ugh... this is gonna be the same boring routine, ain't it? Fucking perfect... oh well. Guess I'll just have to deal with it.
Transition 1 month later------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ugh... It's been the same boring routine for the past MONTH, mostly, anyways, sans a few bits and pieces! Wake up, feed, stay awake for a bit doing nearly nothing sans crawling around for exercise, then fall asleep, get my diapers changed every so often ( Cloth, not disposable like what I'm used to ) and when waking up at night when hungry I just cry loudly to wake my parents up. Ugh... this is SO BORING! Well, until today. As now, I'm starting on walking, and once I do that, I'll start running. As hey! Call it a bad habit, but every time I was born, I didn't learn how to walk, as oh no. I went from crawling, to RUNNING! Literally, just 2-3 days of walking before, BOOM! Already running along. Heh... nothing will be able to hold me once I get strong enough in my legs. But as of now, I'm pretty limited... guess I just have to keep waiting. Though, in this time I managed to find out that 'Solar tyrant' is actually the princess of this land, now ain't THAT odd? Not ruled by a king or queen, but a princess, named Celestia. Which, there used to be two princesses ruling, sisters, until the younger sister, which was named Luna, got jealous and angry at the older one because the people were shunning her and her work, as they raise and lower the sun and moon! And the younger one fucking arranged the stars in the sky for a night sky! Talk about crazy! But, supposedly, the jealousy and hatred of the older sister manifested as an entity of it's own, named Nightmare Moon, possessed the younger sister, and attempted a coup against the older one and was banished to the moon by the 'elements of harmony', well fuck, if they were ACTUAL harmony they wouldn't of banished her to the damn moon! They would've made her see reason! Other than that, and a few other tid bits that I learned, nothing really important happened, as I was stuck inside the house while my parents went out and did stuff, other than that though, I learned that my mane is black, darker than both my mothers AND my fathers, my coat is the same color as my mother, and my eyes are slit just like my parents but my eyes are a very tiny bit lighter red than my mothers. I'm currently outside of my crib and am attempting to walk on both legs. I'm holding onto something to help my balance and it's already coming along pretty fast. Currently, it's about 6PM so it's dusk. It's actually pretty nice right now. Though My parents just left the room to get the door as they heard a knock.
I hear a very gruff and LOUD voice from the other room "DO NOT MOVE. BAT. WE'RE HERE TO SEE THE ALICORN AND DELIVER HER TO PRINCESS CELESTIA. DO NOT RESIST." I hear chains clanking. Oh fuck.... not NOW!
"Rhythm RUN!" I hear hoof steps slamming down and sounds of fighting as the door got flung off the hinges and my mother quickly grabbed me and held onto me tightly and bolted through the window. She ended up dodging at least 3 other flying ponies while flying faster than those damn griffons did! I mean jesus! We're already outside of the town and into a forest that was outside and she's swerving and dodging as much as she can through the thick trees trying to lose our pursuers of which, she was doing quite rapidly. We've already lost sight of them and we hear loud cracking behind us like something smashing into tree limbs and breaking them off then screams very shortly after it all goes quiet... we kept flying through the forest for at least an hour before she slows down and stops, she's panting and I see she has a pack on and somehow must've managed to grab it while rushing for me. Either way, my father's more than likely dead now... fucking perfect...
"WAAAAAHHHH" I'm crying, yeah, and I don't give a fuck if I am. After just the short damn time I knew my father he was a good person. Yeah we didn't trust a soul in that damn town. But we had our reasons. But now.... DAMNIT! Celestia you will RUE this day you stupid utterly idiotic genocidal BITCH! I'll make sure to shove that damn horn on your head up your ass then slowly, and AGONIZINGLY kill you for this! My mother is just trying to calm me down but god damnit! This is too damn much too damn fast! But wait.... huh?! Is that what I fucking think it is?!
My mother is just staring at the giant floating ball of electricity that is surrounded by a distorted field and sees a very faint outline of the creature that appears to BE the ball of electricity. Dear god... guess it's the ZONE first... a Poltergeist… I can tell it's staring at us, and from my mothers look, she can see it to. My mother slowly starts walking back, but, seemingly, the Poltergeist can see us already inspite that it detects via sound, for some reason, it hasn't attacked yet, then, we hear it, a slight hum, right behind us. Then, like a jumpscare out of FNAF "HALT!" My blood goes cold.
Little lesson about the ZONE and poltergeists from it, Poltergeists from the zone see by sound made by other things. If you walk too loudly within a 100FT radius of one, you better be ready to be pelted with things that can weigh up to 40 pounds flying at about 40-100 miles per hour right at you. Now, considering the distance and how loud it was, what the guard just did was essentially like yelling 'I"M HERE! SHOOT ME' next right to a bandit or merc base with a whole bunch of people from said faction just around the corner while standing buck naked covered in blood while holding the corpses of one of the aforementioned factions people in his hands. So of which, basically, this guard is fucking screwed, and so are we if we.... what the fuck?
Both me and my mother are staring, dumbfounded at what we're seeing. The guard is, hilariously, being held up by his underwear by the poltergeist and is being spun around like a top while his coat, tail, and mane, are standing up on end. PFFFFT! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THAT POLTERGEIST HAS A SENSE OF HUMOR! HAHAHA! THIS IS HILARIOUS! DEAR LORD OF MERCIFUL FUCK! Laughing my ass off in my mind at that.
after that, I see the mane being turned into multiple different shapes, ranging from but not limited to: Dicks, instruments, odd headwear, into a copy of his helmet, the shapes of candy bars, and a lot of other hilarious things. Stopping almost completely to show off the new shapes before re-spinning at the same speed as before and I'm unable to contain myself any longer and start laughing out loud which, of course, sounds very cute due to my current age. Now looking at the guard whenever he slows down, he has a blue coat with green mane and tail with golden colored armor and has a different horn on his head as opposed to me or my mother. But dear lord this is TOO funny to pass up! You know, I'm surprised he isn't vomiting yet.
Then after about 2-3 more minutes of spinning and my mother can actually barely hold herself back from laughing, then guard stops dead still from spinning, then gets thrown out of the forest at a speed that might make the flash's jaw drop. As in, I bet he'll land in the village pond which must be a PRETTY damn good distance away if how long my mother flew is correct.
"Why is a mom and their kid so far out in this hell hole?" THAT scared me, I've NEVER heard of a poltergeist talking before.
My mother was staring at it, fear very obvious in her eyes, shaking like a leaf, taking almost a minute before replying "W-w-w-We were trying to avoid being hunted down due to the leader of this country going on a genocidal war path. She wants to kill all thestrals due to what happened between our kind and her sister's fall from grace, and tried to take my child due to them being born an Alicorn, which means they have both a Horn and wings and are very powerful."
My mother VERY quickly covers her mouth after saying 'and are very powerful' and then smiles nervously like 'woops! didn't mean to say that!'
The poltergeist seems to ignore that, and seems to contemplate for a mere second before the air begins to crackle with electricity. "So, the leader of this country wants to kill off all of what you are because of a political fight and is trying to take all of the children from them or any like yours due to them being powerful and related in some way? That right then? Well, looks like I know who's on my 'Shoot them down like shooting at a fucking Chimera and hoping it dies with a makarov' list for later." Yep, this is either a duty who isn't the most clever, a bandit that happens to actually care, or a STALKER. Not sure which one. But I'm assuming either Duty or STALKER faction. But that voice.... and 'Shooting a fucking Chimera with a Makarov?' Where have I heard THAT before?
My mother shook her head before beginning to explain "It's.... more complex than that, it wasn't due to political, it was due to the fact that many of the ponies under celestial the sister's rule didn't appreciate the night and praised the day. Of which, caused the younger sister, Luna, the one we followed and idolized and who saved us over 500 years ago just 10-30 years after the tribes of ponies made it here and settled down, to become jealous of her sister, and eventually, resent, and hate her sister. But the solar tyrant, known then as Celestia, never did anything about it, inspite the obvious signs, and just kept ignoring Luna. " The electricity in the air is starting to crackle more intensely. Uh oh... Pissed off Poltergeist = NOT GOOD!
"After so long, eventually those feelings manifested from Luna, as nightmare moon. A mare bent on making night eternal. Some of the more idiotic of our kind, that couldn't see what would happen SHOULD night become eternal, or were too blind with loyalty or couldn't see past the glory of working with the one they idolized, sided with Nightmare moon, and that, began the hunts and the genocide of our race. Now, less than 500 thestrals remind to my knowledge. But many have hidden out, or have been hidden or left equestria since long before nightmare moon rose. Now... my husband is dead, and now.... my child is the tyrants number one target and she will stop at NOTHING to kill me... and.... get... my..... child." By the end of it, my mother is fucking crying her eyes out. Sobbing loudly. The air is now furiously crackling with electricity. And the psy field that the poltergeist emits is actually becoming visible. We must have a higher tolerance to psy fields and such, which explains why it wasn't affecting us before. But now...
The small outline of it that I see is beginning to shake, damnit, it's pissed. "This. Is. DISPICABLE! DISGUSTING! If my best friend was here to hear this, she'd of started swearing up a damn storm and of grabbed her equipment and tried to take on EVERY SINGLE ONE of the damn bastards that are loyal to that Tyrant even if she only had a knife and of saved her last bullet for that Tyrant! I...." The rant was cut short as the poltergeist just about choked on the word... the poor poltergeist... whoever this is, they aren't one of the original poltergeists in the zone... while women weren't very common in the zone, they still were there, albeit, pretty rare, because most barely ever went there and when they did, they were targeted by the bandits, literally, 20 person teams of bandits just after one woman, happened to me while I was there a few times, though, a reinforced exosuit and a heavily modified PKM machine gun taught them that it ISN'T a smart move to come after me. I wonder though...... who is he talking about? Though... that sounds a LOT like me when I was in the zone.
The poltergeist continues, sounding very upset but the lightning is starting to die down "Damnit I miss her... she died before I came here, a fucking jackass stole from our group and put a bullet in the back of her head when she wasn't looking after she went after them to get our shit back. " Wait a minute. Stole from our group? Hang on a sec... wait a minute, I'm not sure on this, but if that's who I THINK it is... then holy hell am I glad he's here!
The poltergeist is beginning to sob by the sounds of things, doubt they can actually cry though, my mother has a look of 'Stop swearing around my child' and is still afraid, but not nearly to the same extent. She was earlier. "I'm sorry for your loss, however, we need to keep moving, I will NOT allow my child to be captured by the Tyrant, she'll probably kill them in believing they're possessed by nightmare moon or something like that. And can you TRY to keep your language to something more suitable for all ears?"
The poltergeist's outline turns a bit, I think it turned towards us. "I will help you, as I want this damn bitch dead myself, I will not censor myself as your kid's gonna learn the words anyways. Follow me, I'll take you to where I've been resting each night, it'll be safer there than out here at night, the damn mutants around here know better than to fuck with me. After all, having lightning raining at you like a machine gun does that!" He sounded mirthful at that last bit and quite frankly? I find it funny too. Though, mutants? Fuck, if he's just calling everything he sees mutants, that'd be one thing, but if the zone has already mutated the fuck outta the damn wildlife around here... that could be REALLY, REALLY bad! Mutant Hydra? NO THANKS!
My mother looks sceptic, just due to what he CAN do. "Are you SURE you will NOT harm me or my child? As while I am thankful for you saving us from the guard, more are coming, we won't be able to stay long and you will for sure be hunted down." She's got a point, but if it's who I think it is, he should be kind to us.
"Yes, I won't hurt ya or your kid. Anyone who'd ever try to kidnap a kid / take them from their folks I hate with every part of me, unless of course said parents were abusing their kid, if THAT'S the case, then the kid would need to be saved from those sacks of shit and have both of the parents put 6ft under." Ok, yep, little doubt in my mind that is who I think it is. It HAS to be Deck. No way it COULDN'T be. That voice, the tone of speaking, now there is damn near no doubt in my mind it's him. Wonder if... wonder if Branch and Storm survived?
He motions us to follow and my mother, albeit reluctantly, follows him. We continue on a path through the woods, the trees are getting a bit thicker than earlier and after a bit we enter a smaller opening and...HOLY SHIT! Those vines are HUGE and COVERED in spikes! we come upon a huge cave with most of it and it's entrance covered by extremely large vines covered with spikes, but when the poltergeist approaches the vines seemingly move out of the way and he enters without issue.
My mother looks at me, then at the vines, and slowly, and cautiously approaches them, the vines start to move, closing the hole and a few are attempting to slither around her leg, which she sees and backs up. "What the buck! You lied to us! Your damn plant is trying to kill us!" SHIT! Not good!
The vines suddenly stop. "NO! Do NOT harm them you stupid plant! Try to do so again and I swear I'll TURN YOU TO ASH! THEY. ARE. FRIENDLY!" the vines recede and the entrance opens once again, this time wider than before.
She's looking at the poltergeist who I'm betting is Deck with a look of surprise. Probably not expecting that. Deck, I'll just call him that for now, since I'm nearly if not 100% sure it is him rather quickly voiced his displeasure at that. "Sorry, these plants tended to let anything that I wanted through, made them a few months back, don't ask how, not even I know, but it seems that's not the case. Guess they don't like non mutants that much. I'll keep an eye on them and make 100% SURE they do not harm you. But you might want to be a bit careful around here. Some stuff that not even I know what the hell they are showed up a while ago, they haven't bothered me yet, but they might bother you.
"
My mother is still skeptic about it, but concludes that having some shelter, even if it's a bit iffy, is better than being out in the woods at night, as we can see the sun is almost completely down with a crescent moon rising in it's place. She begins to enter the opening and this time it goes smoothly. Once we're inside we see a few beds made of moss, twigs, ect, along with a few dead animals that don't quite look mutated. We hear a snap and my mother turns her head towards the sound, I couldn't see it, but after a moment she turns to allow me to see that Deck is nearly completely visible and is making a makeshift crib while using a bone knife to whittle down the sticks and logs into a somewhat suitable shape. Wow, talk about nice.
Deck seems to turn around and notices us looking. "What? Can't have a young kid wandering around here as it's a little bit TOO dangerous if they manage to somehow get outside of the cave or irritates the vines. So I'm using some sticks I've found to make a makeshift crib. If you're wondering because of the beds, I did have a few buddies before, but... they didn't make it. Branch died last year to a fucking over sized wooden wolf and storm lost his marbles due to... an unfortunate accident and I had to kill him before he killed me.... I wish Sierra was here... she'd of kept both of them alive and at least slowed storm losing his marbales a good bit." Oh... damnit, yep, it is for sure Deck. Storm AND branch didn't fucking make it? damnit... Heh, kinda ironic, Branch died to a wolf made of wood. Ironic but... damnit I'll miss that bastard. Storm though... if they were brought through...
I look at the size of the beds and see one of them is about the same size as a pseudodog, the other.... Oh shit... now I see how storm went nuts... that bed's the size of a fucking chimera! No wonder he went more insane than noah! Wait a sec, is that? I look over at a corner that is pretty well hidden and I see something that makes my eyes light up, literally, they actually started glowing. I see an Exo-suit. MY Exo-suit. Along with three guns. Branch's Pistol, storm's shotgun, and... dear god that's my PKM.
My mother sees my eyes and gasps. Which causes Deck to look and he gasps as well, seeing my eyes glow and follows my gaze. I start looking at him and blinking in morse code. He chuckles while looking at the pile"Seems as though your kid noticed those already, word of advice, don't touch 'em. They're all I got left of my friends, Sierra didn't make it here, but her armor and weapon did. Hmm.... wait a damn second..." He had turned around and was watching my eyes. He know morse code a good bit, but not entirely.
He floats closer but my mother tries to cover me "Now now, don't worry, I don't want to hurt you, nor your kid, but... hang on" He starts tapping each of my blinks in perfect sequence, he gasped when he realized what it was 'It's me, Sierra.' He started to cry, call it a hunch but he was.
He raps a quick ( Sierra ) with his hand and he has started crying, I could tell by the sound of his voice when he spoke next"You have a... very beautiful child. I'm actually glad you're here. As it has been some time since I've spoken with anyone. Please, I'll do what I need to, to defend you from that damn Tyrant. More so since... Call it a well educated guess, well.. he looks at me, very close now, and my mother is about to push him back "You're gonna go far, kid" then my mother proceeds to ask him what the hell provoked such a reaction and why he was knocking on the floor. He managed to convince her that he could just 'see' something about me that got him really happy, and that he had to do those knocks to do something that he can't really explain. She accepted it after a bit and just said 'You better tell me the truth later' after that.
So of which, Deck went out of the cave and left my mother and I behind, before I could chat with deck, I fell asleep till the next morning. But nothing good came from the next morning when I awoke. Only sorrow....
