Lost Cause

Chapter 1:Waking up in the Everfree Forest

Aces POV

I felt something soft brushing in between my fingers, I could hear the birds chirp away, I could smell the scent of a forest. That's when I woke up. My eyes needed a second to adjust to the light. It was then I realised what have happened before."Herc" I managed to utter out quietly followed along by a sad sigh. I'm in a forest I thought to myself. I checked everything I had on me making a mental note in the back of my brain " Pistol, knife, backpack, me, am I real right now" I said out loudly.

I continued my trek to find out where I was last but my navigation skills told me something different, it told me that i'm in a completely different place than before. This felt peculiar, falling into a pool of water and waking up in a completely different place with not a single drop (besides sweat) on me. Speaking of water I began to feel the need to quench my thirst so I whipped out my flask, opened up the cap and nothing. It was as dry as a bone. I sighed knowing that I would have to find a stream somewhere.

I looked everywhere whilst putting my hand sideways on my forehead to block out some light until I stopped my gaze on a hill side just up ahead. That should at least give me an advantage to see further I thought to myself. I started to jog to my destination until I was met with the sound of growling not far behind. I quickly turned around to face 3 wolves but these weren't like your average wolves these looked like trees. Green glowing eyes, bits of chopped wood to form a wolf like body and razor sharp wooden teeth. "This can't be real" I was speaking until a growl brought me back. "Shit" was my response as I saw the one on the right slowly creep towards me.

My hands rapidly reached down to grab my knife and gun. I held my knife up and put the gun on my wrist to make a cross section with my two arms. I'm guessing the wolves didn't know that I had two deadly weapons in my hands as the one on the right got closer. Out of the corner of my eye I could see the left wolf trying to flank me so I quickly swayed to the left and right keeping my eye on both of them. Even though the one in the middle was not moving I didn't care, I still kept my eye on him as well.

The first attack was when I looked to the left and see the wolf on the right accelerate towards me. I knew I didn't have enough time to turn around and shoot him so I moved out of the way just in time for him to speed past and slide on the mud. My reactions were flaring as I saw the other two wolves sprint towards me. I managed to dodge one but the second one knocked me over causing my weapons to fly into a pile of leaves. "Arrrgggh" I screamed as excruciating pain pierced my skin causing blood to rush out of the wound. I performed kicking the wolf off of me and running to grab my knife as I couldn't see my gun anymore.

A wolf tackled me down to the ground causing me to levitate somewhat because my bag was holding me and the wolf up. I held the wolf's head up and proceeded to stab it continuously in the eye as what seemed to be sap ooze out onto my face. The wolf managed to struggle its way out of my grip and run away crying as a trail of sap made its path. I wiped the sticky substance of my face and made the mistake of making an attack as one out of the two that were there sliced his paw against my leg which made another big red gush appear on my thigh. I ignored the agony as I got that adrenaline rush and got the wolf in somewhat of a headlock and began to stab its eyes out with sap squirting as howls of pain emitted from its mouth.

I felt a tug on my ankle but this tug didn't feel the slightest at all. I gazed down to witness the other wolf gnawing at my ankle. I shook my leg to try and get it off but he didn't obey so I had to let go of the wolf which ran around about the same direction as the other one leaving a bigger sap trail behind him. I threw my knife which pierced a bit of tree bark on his forehead and stuck there. The wolf let go of my ankle and dropped to the floor which somehow got the knife out of its head and the knife make its grave out of my reach. I was pushing myself back and felt my back touch something cold and metal. I knew what it was and at the speed of light I was pointing my gun right in between the wolf's eyes. Before I knew it the trigger was pulled and the wolf dropped down onto the mud with a slapping noise. I aimed at his head again and shot another one to make sure.

"Aced" I said to myself as I blew the smoke emitting from the barrel of my gun. I couldn't move as a grunt forced its way out of me and the pain really started to kick in. My arms lost the battle of keeping up and sank into the mud below. I was so exhausted that I had to black out again but before I blacked out I said one thing "Not again" and there I went slightly hearing a faint voice which I couldn't make out.

I first want to say a big massive thanks to all that read and especially to GUEST which was his name seeming that he doesn't have an account but that doesn't bother me because a guest to me is a friend to me and I treat friends with respect if they do the same.

Next chapter which I'm excited for will get Ace to see the ponies and characters I will be introducing.

Again please leave reviews and tell me about mlp because I'm a bit rusty on the knowledge.
