My Little Pony: Cyberpunk is Magic

Scootaloo smiled. "Oh, I've had these for a few years. Back when my wings were state of the art, they cost me..." she put a foreleg on her chin. "Oh about, 45,000 bits. Now they'll go for 15,000 bits or so. And that's not counting the surgery."

She levitated over two mugs of beer from the bartender and passed one to Applebloom. "Have a drink," she said, sipping her own mug. "But still, think much more easily you could help on Applejack's farm if you had cybernetic legs."

-------------------

(Sweet Apple Acres)

Applejack gripped a pen in her mouth as she charted the harvest of apples. She sat in a rather plain looking office that had a rustic feel with roughly hewn yet comfortable chairs and tables along with a plain wood floor.

But make no mistake, Sweet Apple Acres was a high-tech farm. Despite the rustic appearance of her office, the farm employed as much technology as any factory.

The beeping of a console set in the wall - seemingly out of place in this rustic office - attracted Applejack's attention.

"Wait a minute, ah'm comin'," Applejack said as she trotted over to the viewscreen. She stepped on the floor mounted button.

"Speak to me," she said.

The image of an dark orange Earth pony mare came up on the screen. She recognized it as Carrot Top - one of the supervisors in her vast underground farm.

"Applejack, you must come quickly! The solar arrays have failed," she said.

The screen then winked out.

Applejack sighed and walked over to the elevator that would take her to the growing levels.

"Yeah, sorry I haven't really been keeping up with our friendship or anything....I don't know what had happened with that" Apple Bloom shook her head as she sipped the drink that was levitated to her "But...can't you give me a discount on that?" she seemed to beg a little bit to her friend.

(Elsewhere in the city)

Lyra was seen pacing back and fourth on the ground "Where is she? She's late...." she grumbled to herself, wondering where Bon Bon was right now before she stopped and looked back as she activated the light on her horn to be able to see better.

The young colt next to the two coughed quietly.
"Well, I suppose I could. Since you are a friend of Scootaloo's. Plus, if the augments go well, then you could be a major PR boost."
He said, a light joking tone in his voice...

After a few moments of cleaning Rainbow Dash's wound, Fluttershy had gotten to around to sewing up said knife wound before she started to then clean away around Rainbow Dash's face next, rather sure that her friend was in a stable condition.

***

Lyra groaned, she just couldn't wait around for Bon Bon as she rushed into the nearby building, beliving that Bon Bon would arrive when she would be ready. The lights turned on and what was revealed was a fairly big mecha as she grinned. It stood on two legs with fists and a glass dome for its head. She trotted over to the mecha as her horn started to glow and she started to work on it some more.

As Fluttershy was tending to her, Dash opened her eyes slowly.
"Fluttershy...?"
She whispered hoarsely...

MrDrake · **Reply #305 on:** February 14, 2012, 12:46:15 AM

Fluttershy gasped "Rainbow Dash! You're alright! I'm just glad that you are, I was starting to get worried...." she spoke to her friend, dabbing the cloth over her head as well "When you showed up the front step all wounded....what happened?" she had to at least question.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #306 on:** February 14, 2012, 02:05:42 AM

Dash smiled at Fluttershy weakly.
"Ah, just some dumb colts. Tried to rob me...heh, they got what they had comin to them..."
She said softly...

MrDrake · **Reply #307 on:** February 14, 2012, 04:09:40 AM

"Oh, but you shouldn't have taken them on, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten hurt like this!" Fluttershy exclaimed back as she finished cleaning up Rainbow Dash's face and smiled to her "I know that you're a good fighter and all that, but taking risks like that?" she just shook her head at that.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #308 on:** February 14, 2012, 09:07:53 PM

Dash smiled a little, then reached up and pulled Fluttershy into a hug.
"I know, 'Shy. I know...but if I don't, what'd happen if they decided to pick on someone else? What if someone else got killed because I didn't stand up to those thugs?"
She whispered, looking aside.
"I won't let that happen...not again..."
She said quietly...

MrDrake · **Reply #309 on:** February 14, 2012, 10:07:37 PM

Fluttershy returned the hug to Rainbow Dash and smiled to her, understanding what her friend was getting at "But now, you do need your rest, that knife wound you got, and what I had to fix up...." she shook her head a little "Just rest up okay?"

***

Lyra grinned to herself as she had finished fixing it and climbed into the cockpit of it, into a humanized sitting position herself. Her horn started to glow as a helmet levitated down upon her head. Her front hoofs being attatched to two parts on the suit that would control the arms "Now, time to take this baby for a test drive"

She attempted to get it to move, but had no luck as she sighed. Again she tried but still nothing. A third time she tried as the right arm of the AMP suit swung right and damaged the nearby wall "That was unexpected...." she muttered, but just shrugged it off.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #310 on:** February 14, 2012, 10:58:45 PM

Dash smiled softly and nuzzled close to Fluttershy.
"Hey...d'you think maybe you could...stay here with me?"
She whispered gently...

MrDrake · **Reply #311 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:01:36 PM

At first, Fluttershy was unsure of that, but she glanced around. It was rather quiet today as she looked back to her friend "Well, okay then, I don't have any other patients to tend to right now" she smiled away as she climbed up onto the bed and sat down at the end of it, looking to Rainbow Dash.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #312 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:19:04 PM

Dash scooted closer to Fluttershy and cuddled against her.
"Thanks for always being here for me, Fluttershy...you're...the best."
She said quietly...

MrDrake · **Reply #313 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:24:46 PM

Fluttershy just shook her head back a little bit "Oh, it's...nothing really" she ended up smiling to Rainbow Dash, yet, was also blushing lightly when her friend was snuggling up to her with ease.

***

"Uh guys, I just remembered something I was suppose to do as well, and I want to get there before it closes for the day" Apple Bloom explained to Scootaloo and the other colt before she turned and headed off, heading off towards Twist's Candy Factory.

Upon entering said factor after a little while of walking, she approached the counter and rang the bell "I hope that Twist is here too, would be cool to see her again..."

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #314 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:39:40 PM

Dash smiled softly and nuzzled Fluttershy.
"Hey...'Shy? There's something I kinda want to tell you..."
She said nervously...

MrDrake · **Reply #315 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:41:27 PM

Fluttershy blushed a little as she was nuzzled "Oh? And what would that be Rainbow Dash?" she asked her friend as she just sat there, looking at her all the while, waiting for what she had to tell her.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #316 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:44:38 PM

Dash blushed.
"Well, y'see...the thing is...I really...y'know...like like you...and I...well, I love you..."
She stammered...

MrDrake · **Reply #317 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:48:32 PM

Fluttershy just froze up when Rainbow Dash had told her that, with those words. She opened her mouth, but no words came out. Again she tried, but still nothing until finally "But....I thought you liked Applejack?" was all she could ask as she looked at her friend still.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #318 on:** February 15, 2012, 12:00:52 AM

Dash chuckled a little.
"Nah. I mean, sure we tried it, but...I guess the two of us are just too alike. We were arguing most of the time, and...it didn't work out."
She said, then smiled.
"Besides, I think all that time, you had my heart, 'Shy."
She added...

MrDrake · **Reply #319 on:** February 15, 2012, 12:04:28 AM

Fluttershy just sat there, silent at first. She sure had not expected any of that to be said to herself. It was causing her head to hurt a little as she rubbed it a little, but then did smile to Rainbow Dash. Though she did want to say something back, but only a small little eep had come out instead as instead, she just blushed away.

***

Apple Bloom rang the bell again, but there was still no answer as she peered over the counter "Where is everypony? All I want to do is buy some candy...." she sighed "Buy some before the factor would close for the day...." she grumbled a little as well, starting to now ring the bell rather impatiently.
