David and Stryker were walking through the hallway. David thought it would be a good time to say something.

"You remember what Rarity said this afternoon?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Well, when I was out, we talked and we decided not to insult each other and whatnot."

"Really now?"

I'd like proof!

Well ask tomorrow then. I'm sure she'll tell you the truth.

Okay, but I don't take his word for it.

"Well David, I hope you are okay and well. Oh, by the way..."

"What?"

"You still got blood all over you."

David looked all over himself and sighed. "That's what you get when a PMC attacks suddenly and you pretty much go badass mode on them."

"Yeah."

"Completely random thought! If I had the power to go back in time, I would go back to the 1930's and totally kick Hitler's ass!"

"Wouldn't you want to kill him?"

"Are you crazy? That is impossible, because if he dies, then Stalin takes over Europe, then I'd have to back in time to stop that from happening and, oh my GOD, it is confusing!"

"Huh."

That was awkward.

Agreed.

Who's Hitler?

You don't want to know, just don't.

"Well," David said. "we're here."

The group of two were outside the throne room. The two allies looked at eachother, then nodded. They entered and were greeted with the other humans and the two princesses. Celestia rose from her throne.

"I trust you are okay?"

"Just a flesh wound and a mild headache. I'm fine."

"Good to hear. I must say though, your way of fighting is... disturbing."

"What can I say, there's no kill like overkill."

"Amen brotha!" Deadpool said.

I'm back, and I decided that I don't need you Pink Caption Box!

Really?

Yep, he's more into the rainbow-maned one we saw this morning.

She so sassy! Me likey!

"Please Yellow Caption! Rainbow Dash does not need to know you're crushing on her."

"Wade... Why are you talking to someone who doesn't speak?" David asked.

"Well, there's Yellow Caption Box, White Caption Box, and Pinkie Pie! I talk to them regularly."

"In other words, Schizophrenia." Stryker said, seeing his share of schizophrenics.

"Is that the sciency term? Doesn't matter, I'm still badass."

"Which reminds me, what powers did you guys get?" David asked. Nikolai immediately walked forward.

"I got power-ups called Perk-a-Colas."

Link seemed confused. Are these Perk-a-Colas elixirs?

"Perks are extra hardiness, fast running, fast reload, fast fire, quick pick up of fallen comrade, boom-proof, sharp shooting thingy and more killing bullets. I also have bag full of guns now, see." Nikolai dumped his satchel's content's on the ground. It was all Pack-a-Punched weapons that were available from Nikolai's journey. David picked up the Reaper.

"Is this a PPSh-41?"

"Used to be, it is now upgraded so now it's Reaper. It is bitchin' weapon."

Link looked at what used to be an M1911 pistol and picked it up with his left hand. He looked at it carefully.

It's engraved, but that's it. What is this...

Link accidently pulled the trigger to the gun, firing a shot and...

"MY BALLS!" Deadpool screamed. The explosive blew up near the merc, but a piece of shrapnel hit Wade in the genitals.

"Walk it off, Wade." Stryker said, knowing Deadpool's healing factor made this a moot point to worry about.

"Ugh, I bet you did that on purpose, dumbass!" Wade said as he took the C3000 b1atch35 away from Link and putting it in his pants, dangerously close to his groin.

Isn't that dangerous?

And stupid?

And who are you talking to?

...

...

Exactly! "Who's up for chimichangas?"

No response. Wade then deadpanned.

"OH COME ON! If you don't come with, I'll show you my face!"

"Please, can't be that ugly." David said.

Wade narrowed his eyes, then put his hands on the mask.

Oh God, he's doing it!

Hide!

Is he ugly?

Fuck yeah!

Wade lifted his mask and soon it was off. He looked at the reactions, and he was surprised at said reactions. Before he said something, David handed him a mirror.

"Whatever you got, it was good."

"Good? What are you... oo oo oo!" Wade saw that the relic gave Deadpool one of his best gifts ever.

"My God, I'm handsome!"

Wade was now scarless, had blond hair and was looking good.

He still has us though. White Caption box?

Umm...

"OH HELL YES!"

The other humans were confused, but David got out first and approached Deadpool.

"Well, you have no cancer scars anymore Wade, but you're still an insane mercenary."

"Yeah. You know what, I think I'll keep the mask until it's all over just for lulz." Deadpool said as he put his mask on. Stryker was now ready to talk.

"Well I have an idea. David, how about a friendly spar?"

"I'll be friendly, you go all out." David said, cracking his knuckles.

"You sure?"

"Guns off safety man, I'm invincible."

"Alright, your choice." Stryker put his fist in his palm and entered a fighting pose.

Stryker immediately closed the distance between him and David and gave a few powerful punches to his chest. David was surprised at his apparent strength, but also understood it. He retaliated with a palm strike, which pushed Stryker back and made him roll.

"Okay try Stryker, come on!"

Stryker got up and reached for something.

"Eat this!" Stryker said as he threw two grenades at David. One of them hit but David was mildly stunned.

"Concussion grenades? Come on!" David said.

"You asked for it!" Stryker took out two guns and opened fire on David. One of them hit him in the head and deflected off. It did leave a hole in the dermis.

"Hurt like hell, that was good!"

Why are you putting yourself in unnecessary danger?

Training, never know when it'll help.

I suppose.

David dashed forward. Stryker never moved.

"Spread 'em!" Stryker said as he took out a flashlight and blinded David. Once he was on his knees, Stryker smashed his head with the flashlight, then smacked David's face with a nightstick. Finally, he tased David.

Isn't that a bit excessive!

Maybe, but David wanted to do it like this.

David fell back on his back. He looked up at the cop and smiled.

"Okay, you win!"

Stryker reached his hand out, and David grabbed it.

"Good fight. Noticed something different?" David said as he got up.

"Well, I apparently have improved reflexes, and disregard for practicality."

"Good, that's totally me. You'll do fine."

Well that was interesting.

Totally.

Link had watched the fight unfold and was thoroughly impressed.

Stryker seemed to know what he was doing, but it scared me to know that they would just fight like that so suddenly.

They did seem to know what they were doing. I find Stryker's way of fighting fascinating. I'm thinking about asking him for lessons now.

Oh go for it! I wouldn't want you to be hurt badly, especially with what happened earlier. 'And you seem so caring. Oh, why must we be like this.'

As Link conversed with Fluttershy, Harry looked at the two fighters, and shook his head.

Well, that got me worried for no reason.

Yeah, I was hoping that David would win.

You don't like Stryker much, do you?

I don't think of him as my friend, but I do see him a rival.

Hopefully not bitter.

I'll need to know him better beforehand.

Well, just be glad there wasn't any unfortunate accidents here.

"Ahem, are you six ready to leave? That fight seemed unnecessary." Celestia said.

"Fine," David said. "Let's go guys. And we'll hide the car better this time Princess."

"Please."

The six humans went to the car. Harry's and Link's abilities would have to be explored later. Right now, the moon had almost set and the sun was over the horizon. They had entered the car and David looked through the songs. He had chosen an obscure song as his riding music, a house song. David began to drive off. When the synths began to join in, it began to calm the crew, even Nikolai was agreeing with it.

"This is calming, especially with what happened tonight." Nikolai said, drink from his bottle.

This garnered a few laughs from Link, Stryker, Deadpool and even David. David especially felt really good about himself when he buried the hatchet with Rarity.

I like this song, it's so soothing.

I like it too, it calms me down.

The car ride was mainly uneventful. Link then noted something.

It seems the more aggressive this 'music' is, the more reckless David uses this thing.

Mmmm... oh you say something, this song is so relaxing.

Nevermind it, just a random thought.

Oh okay, I guess we'll see each other soon.

But, we're right here.

I mean face to face, rather than...

Oh, I understand.

David had driven to the outskirts of Ponyville as the song was ending and carefully moved the car so that it would be hidden in a ditch, by shadows and rocks, not an easy feat. Once that was done, they all went to Twilight's library, where they got some much needed rest. They soon fell asleep from exhaustion from tonight's event.
