Tales of a Rainbow Pony: The Way Out West

By: Rambo Dash

Chapter 0: Before I Start…

*Walks up on stage and taps the min* Ahem… What's good? Rambo Dash here. Before I get to the nitty gritty process of writing this beast, just a few words of warning:

1: Be aware that this does contain violence, sexual content, vulgar language etc. If you are not ok with that, DO NOT READ.

2: For all you cloppers out there, there won't be clop in the first few chapters, and there won't be a clop each chapter after. This story does not revolve around the Skiddlypoopin gentlecolts! And the 4 mares that clop… (Call me ;) )

3: First fanfic, don't expect a Fallout Equestria.

4: I may not be able to upload all the time so bear with me!

Now let's get to the characters!

Rambo Dash: One of the main characters, Rambo Dash is a cousin of the popular Rainbow Dash with none of the fame. He is a male Pegasus in his early 20's with blue eyes, white coat and you guessed it, rainbow hair (hangs with most of his hair parted behind his right eye) His wings tips are a jet black with splotches of black trailing down a third of the wings. His hooves are done similarly, with the black going up a third of the way also. His cutie mark is an S-shaped rainbow string but frankly, he doesn't know what the fuck it means. He is quick to defend the ponies he is close to but sometimes doesn't have a grasp on a dire situation. Highly combative, Rambo will jump into any fight if given the option to, and is a strategic, speedy fighter.

Art Beat: The recent new girlfriend (SSP) of Rambo Dash, Art Beat is a kind pony who helps out anypony, friend or foe in need of a helping hoof. She has a rainbow mane similar to Rambo with a solid white coat. She prefers to keep to herself most of the time, detesting violence. She also has questions about Rambo's daughter Sweetie, which he conceived a long time ago. Still, she remains Rambo's best friend and lover.

Shadow Dash: Rambo Dash's brother, Shadow Dash is a black and red colored pony (primarily black wings, coat with red mane) With like characteristic to Rambo, they don't have much conflict (The worst being over a prank Shadow pulled) and work well when fighting together, Rambo being a strategist while Shadow rushing the attacker. Not much more to say…

Sweetie: Rambo Dash's daughter, Sweetie is a slightly sadistic pre teen with a coat and mane similar to Fluttershy (although Fluttershy is not the mother). Her sense of humor tends to throw ponies off but she usually means well. She is surprisingly able in combat having a mix between Rambo and Shadow's style of fighting. On a side note, Sweetie is EXTREMELY lusty around certain ponies.

Blarebun: A long time friend, Blare is a primarily orange earth pony with a brown mane. Extremely adept with machinery, Blare is able to invent and fix almost anything, eventually creating his own wings to fly with, and constantly creating attachments to his firearms like a FREAKING FLAMETHROWER (His proudest accomplishment) Blare is the quickest to anger out of the group which is both a blessing and a curse. For once when he was angered, Blare burned an entire power plant to the ground. On the other hand, he will not care if you are friend or foe, He's lighting you aflame.

Steel Sword: The newest of the ponies, Steel is a mostly grey Pegasus with a dark blue, gelled back mane. Not much is known about Steel only that he was involved in a splicing experiment that left him with paralyzed wings. After fixing his wings (with golden shock chargers braced to the bottom of his wings) he resides in Ponyville and will act as the guide out west.

Arise: A being of cosmic energy… nuff said… But seriously, Arise is the most powerful of the group, being somehow linked to the ancient dragons, Arise can breathe fire, conjure lightning and have enormous strength. This however, has a drawback. Only when Arise is unconscious and frankly, has enough energy left in the tank can he tap into his dormant energy. He is the wisest of the group, being 3000 years old and is well respected among the group.

Those are all the characters for now! I may add more as the story progresses but for now, there you have it. Thank you, and I'll see you when the first chapter is out!
