Iron Pony

Chapter 1: Rarity

In the middle of the dessert…

A few trucks were driving on the road in the middle of the dessert. In the first truck, three ponies were chatting about how well the 'Demonstration' went, they recently tested a missle known as 'The Jerico', a name from pony culture, in the backseat of the car sat Rarity, also beside her was a stallion in war uniform, two stallions in the front were also wearing uniforms of course one of them was driving, there was silence for quite some time.

"I can speak right?" Rarity questioned.

"Yes, of course you can speak," the pony beside her replied. The stallion beside the driver turned his head around and said," I have been dying to take a picture with you Rarity."

"Im good with that, pull over let these two switch sides with me", she pointed to the two ponies, they switched places eventually, the pony took out a phone, held it in front of him and Rarity. He took the picture,"Thanks, Rarity."

"Yeah don't mention it, I hope it appears on your Facebook."

During the last centery, ponies discovered more about electricity, this allowed the inventions of, Television, computer, and smartphones to be developed within the last one hundred years. There were Internet Browsers with many websites that ponies look and play on. Including Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and of course 'e-mare', there was such thing as air condition, and entertainment software. Rarity usually does her part to engage in the ways of the internet, she mostly is a mechanic though, building weapons for the Equestrian Government. Rarity was known for drinking a lot, especially during conventions.

"You know, when we head back we should—", Rarity got interrupted when a loud boom, crashed into the cars, there were terrorists nearby, they were in Saddle Arabia, there were ponies there that didn't want anything to do with Equestria Law. They knew how to use explosives, and rifles. The stallions in the truck all got caring guns to defend the car Rarity was in.

"Give me a gun."

"Ms. Rarity keep your head down plea—AHH", the stallion got shot several times all over his body, blood rushing out of him. Rarity looked at her surroundings then ran out of the truck, into the war that was going on. She hid behind a big rock, trying to call for help, when she spot a heavy grenade roll beside her in the sand, she dropped the phone and quickly ran away, unfortunately it exploded sending Rarity flying, she fell on the soft sand, her head feeling hot, her body was shaking, it felt cold, a huge wound, was in her chest, her eyes felt tired, and she gave into consciousness , she closed her eyes, she felt like this was it.

30 Hours Earlier…..

It was nighttime at Manehatten, Rarity was awarded 'Mare of the Year', she couldn't attend because she wasn't there when the pony announced who it was, a stallion came forth onto the stage, he worked with Rarity, his name was Cinnamon Spice, he walked up to the pony who offered the award," Sadly, Ms. Rarity could not be here at the moment to congratulate herself on such a sweet golden award, you know if I was Rarity, I would make lots of chatter about how beautiful I am, and how I make stallions drool because I have a charming name, but I can put what she should say, into two words,'Thank You', goodnight everypony", he sat back down along with Spike the Dragon, he also works with Rarity. Spike is secretly in love with Rarity. Cinnamon decided to go look for her.

"Where are you going Spice?"

"Im gonna find our boss."

Rarity threw the dice across a casino board.

"Yes, that's two 'Sugar Cookie'"

"I told you not to call me that."

"You know you love it when I say your name slowly, anyhoof..OH, hey Cinnamon, what happened?"

"Well, you won 'Mare of the Year', so I had to give out a speech in front of thousands of ponies, you owe me one Rare."

"Im sorry I was too busy."

"A boss can never be too busy, anyhoof, Im going towards my room, so see you tomorrow after your demonstration."

"Okay, see ya Cinnamon…now that he's gone, Im going another round."

Three hours later…

Hundreds of camera ponies were taking pictures of Rarity as she walked towards her car, she was stopped by a news reporter pony.

"Hello my name is Black Ink, from the Equestrian Newspaper, if you don't mind, I wanna ask you some questions before you leave."

"… sure that won't hurt, fire away."

"First question, How does it feel to be 'Mare of the Year'?"

"Amazing, I feel good."

"Next, lots of ponies call you the greatest mare of all time, what would you say to that?"

"I don't think so, years ago, there was a farm pony that changed how wars were made."

" Also a curious one, how do you sleep at night, do you lose any hours of sleep?"

" Im prepared to lose a few with you," Rarity smiled," Come on, I'll follow you to my car Mr. Black Ink."

They both went in the car.

In a mansion near the ocean…

"What about your dragon assistant Spike?", Ink asked.

"It's alright he sleeps upstairs," Rarity ran towards her bedroom.

"Are you sure your ok with this Rarity?"

"Of course this isn't my first time, I've done this, should I shut off the light?"

"Sure Rare, that's fine with me."

9:00a.m

A messy mane and tail were the only things seen in the thick warm blankets and bed sheets, the stallion woke up to realize Rarity left. He got up and walked around the mansion looking for her.

"Rarity, did you leave?"

"She's gone, she left few hours ago, did you…have fun?", a dragon asked eating some toast with some OJ.

"You can say that, she's going to the weapons demonstration isn't she?"

"Yup, so, would you like me to call a taxi for you? It is getting late?"

"Sure, thank you", the stallion walked around for a bit.

"Could I use her shower?"

" I Guess that's alright, just don't take too long in there… and don't use the hot water, I wanna have some for later ok?"

Three vehicles were driving through the dessert, it was the same one where Rarity was in for her weapons demonstration, she going there now.

"Thank you everypony, once you see how accurate this missle is, you'd swear, the terrorists will be cowerds and run back in their caves… BEHOLD… THE JERICO!," behind her a missle launched shooting mini missles from it, a sound wave came behind her creating a huge gust of wind, some of their hats blown off in the wind. "You did it again Rare," one of the soliders said. She opened an ice chest, with some alcoholic beverages in them. She took a quick gulp of one of the beverages and put it back. They went back to their trucks, Sugar Cookie was walking over to Rarity's truck.

"Im sorry this is the Fun Truck, Normal Trucks are over there", Rarity smiled.

"Come on, Im your best friend."

"Im tired, I will be a best friend when we get back to lovely Equestria", she shut her door. The trucks drove once again on the road. Rarity got a call from Cinnamon Spice.

"Hi, how's it going?"

"How was the demonstration?"

"Fantastic, you should have seen it, anyhoof Im going back to Equestria so see you when I get there ok."

"Ok, Im going back to bed," Cinnamon yawned.

"Why aren't you wearing those pajamas I sent you?"

"Goodnight Rarity."

Rarity hung up her phone.

Moments later Rarity and the soliders were caught in a spot where terrorists were hiding. Rarity blacked out, she was screaming, something wrong happened, her mind grew fuzzy until she fell into deep consciousness.
