Pump of the Pony - Chapter 4
As bloodstar went through the door, into the supposedly long forgotten story forum he could feel a chill running down his spine. The story forum was a weird place, things inside it seem to be frozen in time, people dressed up as adventurers in the middle of fights, and people sitting around in a lounge, all equally frozen in time.
"H-H-Hello? Is anyone in here?" Bloodstar asked the dark halls, fearing for whatever might be answering, and an answer he got, with an demonic almost robotic voice, robotic because it was obviously overly auto-tuned.
"Wooooooooooaaaaaaaah, you have some good cooooouuuurage to walk in here all alone!"
"A-A-Are you the... Original pumper?"
"Hahahahahooooooooooooo some called me that, but I'm done with that busineeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeess." The voice was awfully, happy somehow, but it was still kinda threatening.
"Even if you are, I still need your help, my name is Bloodstar and"
"DON'T YOU THINK I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!? I AM THE SHADOW RULER OF THIS PLACE, I KNOW EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS HERE, IF IT WASN'T FOR ME, YOU'D ALL BE DROWNED IN THE WAVES OF IDIOCY!"
The sudden raising of the voice scared Bloodstar, and he stopped talking, fearing for his life as he cowered on the ground.
"Now, I knoooooooooooow what happened, Dotty did the dance with Hydra, and you want revenge, I can give you that, here, take my pump and find your real chosen one, so that you can challenge Dotty and Hydra to a roooooooooooooooooll-off."
Bloodstar saw how a hand, entirely made of metal, holding a pump stretched out from the darkness, and as he went to grab it the voice spoke again, this time a little more threatening.
"On one condition, if you take this pump from me, you must be able to get Dotty's pump, and bring it to me, or a hell far worse than seeing them roll will await you."
Bloodstar said nothing, and merely grabbed the pump and started walking out, with renewed confidence, with this pump, he could get his revenge. And just as he walked out the door back into the main part of the circus, the voice spoke to him again.
"Luck be with you Bloodstar. You'll need it! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
He ignored the laughter and went out, looking for his one chosen to roll with.
