- >Be Anon in Equestria.
- >Well...
- >Not technically in Equestria in this case.
- >You and the ponies that everything weird in the universe centers on (and Spike), just got sucked into a magical comic book.
- >Sounds unbelievable right?
- >Maybe you've died and this is hell. A very technicolor hell.
- >All the ponies just inherited a super powers as well as an appropriate garish costume.
- >No doubt the way to get out of here is by doing something simple like stopping the villain.
- >From what you can tell you're on top of a tall building.
- >Spike begins explaining to the girls where you all are and what their powers are.
- >With great power comes great responsibility and all that.
- >Though the strange thing isn't the fact you got sucked into a comic book.
- >Not that being sucked into a comic book isn't strange in itself.
- >No, the strange thing is that you're dressed not as a spandex wearing hero.
- >You're dressed in black colored Kevlar with a bright white skull emblazoned on it.
- >Not to mention the handguns, magazines, grenades and rifle on your back.
- "Fuck YES! I'm the motherfucking Punisher!"
- >The "Power Ponies" (and Spike) look over at you, all showing emotions ranging from concern, confusion, fear, and "Ugh. Black? So gaudy".
- >Twilight clears her throat, "Um... Anon are you alright?"
- "Am I alright? Of course I'm alright, why wouldn't I be?"
- >"It's just that your costume is a bit... different compared to the rest of us."
- \\
- >Spike snaps out of his trance and shakes his head.
- >"Anon who the heck are you supposed to be? I've never seen or read about any hero that dresses like that."
- "I guess since there's no human hero in this book, it just made into one of the ones back home."
- >Rarity begins trotting around you getting a closer look at your "costume".
- >"Anon, darling. No offense but what type of hero wears all black."
- >So many possible responses. Many of which are sarcastic.
- >Resisting the urge to go all fanboy you give her the simplest answer you can think of.
- "One who wages a one-man war on crime, and possibly one of the best examples of anti-heroes."
- >"A-anti-hero?", Fluttershy asks as she slowly tip-toes towards you, obviously frightened by your grim appearance.
- "Without having to explain it in detail, it's essentially a character who lacks normal heroic attributes."
- >"Like a v-v-villain?" she says, getting a bit more jittery.
- "Not really, sometimes they fight on the side of good they just don't do deeds in a traditional 'heroic' way."
- >Before they can ask you to clarify any furthur a loud explosion is heard from the streets below.
- >Everyone heads to the edge of the building and looks down towards the source.
- >Huge green tentacles drag a giggling (and somewhat psycotic) mare holding a glowing sphere into the streets.
- >Spike begins to panic, "It's the Mane-iac. You girls have to stop her before she uses the electro-orb to power her doomsday device!".
- >The ponies spring into action leaping off the side of the building leaving you and Spike alone.
- >"Anon, aren't you going to help them?"
- "By jumping off the side of a building? Are you nuts?"
- >"Come on Anon we don't have time, you'll be fine."
- >Spike jumps off the roof.
- >The Power Ponies are doing a horrible job of subduing the Mane-iac.
- >Though they’re doing a fine job of subduing themselves.
- "Fuck that, Imma taking a shortcut".
- 10 minutes later...
- >After a bit of searching you find that the only other building of note is one with a huge neon sign for mane-care.
- >Considering this is a hair/mane/whatever themed villain with a mental problem, it's probably a safe bet this is her lair.
- >That and the stallions walking inside muttering things like "dooms-day device" and "trap" also probably helped.
- >Inside the Mane-iac's lair you wait in the shadows.
- >It doesn't take long for the Mane-iac herself to show-up.
- >Office doors open and a bunch of stallions in fashion garb walk out to greet their leader.
- >"MUAHAHAHA-HA With the electro orb I can now power my dooms-day device!"
- >Her minions start laughing as well.
- >Ugh. This is like a bad Saturday morning cartoon.
- >"The Power Ponies will be here soon, get the paralyzing spray ready for the trap! HeheheheHAHA!" The Mane-iac yells out as she caresses the orb like a newborn.
- >Better get the ball rolling if you want out of here.
- >You unslung the rifle from your back and slowly walk towards the group.
- "Hand the shiny sphere over."
- >She appears unperturbed, "Whose this?"
- "Your worst nightmare."
- >Without a second beat you aim and fire the rifle at the villain.
- *FWOCKA-FWOCKA-FWOCKA*
- >A trio of swords slice through the Mane-iacs mane/tentacles leaving her completely flabbergasted and helpless.
- >Everypony is looking at you in shock, while you just stare at the rifle in awe.
- >Then a mysterious voice echos through your head.
- >"It's a gun Anon. A gun that shoots swords."
- >Still shocked (and chuckling for some reason) she manages to blurt out "GET HIM YOU FOALS!"
- >You grin as all the poor goons bum-rush you. Taking aim at the closest one you pull the trigger.
- "FWOCKA-FWOCKA MOTHERFUCKERS!"
- >You are Spike, or Hum-Drum, but you prefer Spike.
- >After helping the Power Ponies recover from their humiliating defeat you lead them to the Mane-iac's lair.
- >As the group nears the hideout, you suddenly hear multiple booms and screams of agony.
- >Before you know it Anon jumps through a window with the electro orb in one hand and a small cylinder in the other.
- >Anon does a tuck and roll before getting back up and dashes off.
- >The only thing he says as he sprints past is "RUN!"
- >Not one to question you all follow him.
- >After getting a considerable distance from the warehouse Anon flips a small cover on the cylinder revealing a red button.
- >"Oh what’s that Nony?" asks Pinkie as she begins bouncing up and down.
- >"A parting gift." he replies, "you should all cover your ears".
- >"I love gifts. What kind is it?" she asks
- >Everypony presses their ears down.
- >"The explosive kind." he says and presses the small button.
- >Twilight's eyes widen at this, "Anon did you just say expl-"
- >She's cut off as a massive explosion comes from the direction of the warehouse.
- >The shockwave from the blast knocks everyone off their hooves.
- >Debris begins raining down from the sky.
- >You think you see chunks of mane as well.
- >Before you can get up all eight of you are dragged into a white portal before being dumped into the study of the ancient castle.
- >"THAT WAS FUCKING AWESOME!" Anon jumps up "We should do it aga-"
- >Everypony groans as Twilight smacks him on the back of the head.
- >"Anon! What did you do?!" she demands.
- >Anon rubs the back of his head, "I stopped the villain."
- >"By doing what exactly?"
- >"Punishing evil. With a gun that shoots swords and lots of explosives. I mean who knew hair spray was so volatile?"
- >Rainbow interjects,"But what about the Mane-iac?"
- >Patting her on the head, Anon just laughs.
- >"Let's just say she curled up and dyed."
