Celestia pulled the blinders over her eyes, and receeded into her matress. She was ready for Luna's night to carry her away into the beautiful world of sleep. She took in a deep breath, before clearing her mind of all the past month's events. Trying as hard as she could to calm her tense nerves on how DJ was reacting to Ryan's move. It had been two whole days, and still no word from either of them. She gad at least expected Ryan to send her a letter, seeing as she had no grudge against her.

     But she pushed it out of her mind. Relaxing as much as possi...

     "Halt! In t..." *THUNK THUNK THUNK THUNK THUNK*

     Celestia sat straight up in her bed at the sound of royal guard's armor being crushed. She heard moans of pain from the other side of the door. Then, four loud bangs on the door. "Let me in dammit!" Screamed a familiar voice.

     Celestia raised the lock on her door, and opened it with her magic. A dark figure approached the bed. In full padding, a shotgun in his hand.

     His ring, firmly in place, caked with orange paint, and red blood.

     "We have a problem." He said, as a purple unicorn walked up beside DJ.

     Celestia squinted. "Twilight?"

     Just as she looked back to DJ, more figures started to appear. First one, then five, then ten of the most pissed off humans Equestria has ever seen were standing in the archway, in camo gear, guns dangling from their hands, bloodshot eyes.

     And growling stomachs.

     Twilight tapped her foot out of anxiety and exitement as the train pulled into the station. She looked over to her friends. "See if you can see her." Twilight said.

     The ponies all smiled amd nodded, dissecting the crowd with their eyes as Rainbow and Fluttershy flew overhead. But, as the station cleared out, there was no sign of the female human. Twilight frowned and looked at Spike, who gave a shrug. "The letter said noon."

     Twilight brought her hoof to her chin. Maybe she got off on the wrong stop? Maybe she's asleep? A tap on the shoulder brought her back to reality. She looked over to see Rarity pointing into the distance. "What's that?"

     Twilight strained her eyes, and saw the oddity. A red square was coming towards them, over the rolling hills, a loud whine when it tried to climb. Twilight recognized the square, as the truck.

     DJ's truck.

     As it bounced and got closer, she noticed bags bouncing in the back, along with Ryan's bike that was tied down using multi-colored stretchy cords. When it pulled up, it was obvious DJ wasn't the one who got to choose the song being played, as a deep man's voice filled the air, instead of bass or electric guitars.

     The truck bounced over that tracks, then slowly made its way towards the large tree in the center of town. Rainbow flew down beside Twilight. "I thought just Ryan was coming?"

     "So did I." Twilight said as she frowned and started towards her home, which in the front yard held a quarter ton vehicle, a hundred pound angel, and two hundred pound devil.

     DJ pushed down on the brake, and shut off the engine. "Are you sure this is it?" Ryan asked, looking up at the massive tree.

     "Ry, I've loathed this show for years now. I think I know what the main character's house looks like." DJ replied as he threw open the door, unloading the bags onto the ground.

     Ryan got out of the truck, looking around. She noticed a lot of looks. Fear, cofusion, and curiosity. She looked to DJ as he got to the bike. "Need help?"

     "Please." He said, rolling it to the end of the bed. As they started unloading, DJ heard hooves behind him, he glanced back to see the all too familiar purple unicorn leading the pack. An unhappy look on her face. But before he could speak, a cyan pegasus flew into his face.

     "What are you doing here?"

     DJ looked back, bowing up, and sticking his nose just an inch from hers. "Whatever the fuck I want."

     A hand came in fast and hard, making solid contact with the back of DJ's skull, but in a way that didn't push his face straight forward, but to the side. "DJ! Language!" Ryan belted our as she propped her bike against the tree. She put her hand on DJ and Rainbows' s chest. "Let's all calm down, and let me explain."

     Lust stared at the red door, the ring sitting on top, the markings on the floor, and the circle of stones, each with its own unicorn for power. Their portal would be different then Celestia, Luna, and Cadence's. Instead of just the tear in space, they would allow a pre-existing tear to re-open. The door, serving as the tear, alone is just another door. But when powered, it finds a, or all, the previous tears, within a proximity. Bending them into the general location, and from there, the ring directs where the open end of the tear ends up.

     The unicorn walked next to Lust. "This thing, are you sure you will be able to contain it?"

     Lust grunted. "If we can't, then we don't deserve it. It shouldn't be too hard. From what you said, it's fast and strong, but weak against magic." The unicorn nodded, before studying the items. "What's your name?" Lust asked.

     The unicorn raised an eyebrow. "I have many, why are you so curious about it?"

     "I don't like referring to ponies as 'you'. I like to have a name."

     The unicorn nodded. "That's a fair enough reason. My name is Red. And yes, I am not the color red. But that is my name."

     Before Lust could respond, a noise caught her attention. A small line of smoke started to trail towards the door. "The tears are converging!" A unicron yelled. "Everypony to your stations!"

     As the ponies scurried to their spots, the wind picked up, and Lust was starting to regret the idea. What if they couldn't hold it? What if it got out? But on the other hand, what if they captured it. Detained it. As the stones and ring started floating, her nervousness was showing to everypony.

     Then, the door was engulfed in a bright blue light, from the gem in the ring, and the handle on the door shaking. Then, in a second, the door flew open, and four small balls flew through. With each one, a different color smoke. The ponies looked down as the smoke filled the room.

     Lust looked away from the smoke balls just long enough to see red lasers start cutting through the smoke. And, in one booming voice, multiple demons screamed "Get on the fucking floor!"

     Kendrick hit the ground as the paint balls flew over his head. He looked to Corben as he popped open another container to fill his hopper. "Who's bright idea was it for it to be coaches versus players?"

     Corben shrugged. "It wouldn't be so bad, but Davidson's trigger finger is fucking isane. And he's a deer, have you seen him go from cover to cover?"

     Kendrick grunted. "Barely." He peaked his head around the corner barely, already attracting multiple shots. "We need to regroup."

     "Agreed." Corben said, reaching into his bag.

     "You have a lighter, right?"

     Corben looked over, and even though a mask was worn, you could still see the 'are you fucking kidding m?' Look on his face. He pulled out the small rocket, lit it, and let it fly. "Alright, we all meet back at the trail. We should be able to flank them at their camp from there.

   *A regroup and quick jog later*

     Then ten remaining player slowly walked up to the abandoned lake house, now used as Coach Base. They crept up to the front door, stacking five on each side. Tyler looked to Corben. "What else you got to breach?"

     Corben sighed. "All I gots is smoke. Everyone still has their lasers from our night run, right?"

     Everyone nodded, except for a single person. "No, why would I keep that on?"

     Freddy looked behind him. "Shelby, shut the fuck up, no one cares." Followed by muffled laughs.

     Corben took the smoke grenades in his hands. "Alright, you guys ready?" Everyone nodded. "Alright, three... two..." he lit the fuses. "One..." he threw the door open, tossing in the grenades. "Wait a few for the room to fill...... and go!" Corben switched on his laser, and kicked the door in with his foot. The grenades had done their job, the room was completely smoked out, but he could make out living shadows. Then in onw voise, the playeds screamed "Get on the fucking floor!"
