Silent space (an MLP fanfic)

Chapter 12

Everyone was filled up and stuffed from the food that Steeltrix had taken out from the freezer and as everyone lolled around on the floor, Widit, Moonbloosom, Solar, and Fireblaze had all fallen asleep as Steeltrix, Mint, Eclipse, Alec, and Turbosky all were up to look out for the others as they slumbered.

As Steeltrix looked to Turbosky, Turbosky said, "This was a good find."

"It is. And from what I see, its pretty abandoned too so we could have plenty of supplies here for the next trip ahead." said Steeltrix as he watched Alec looked from where he was to outside the windows.

"Say... is it weird for a place to be stocked... to have no one in it?" asked Alec as he looked outside.

"It is a little weird... but I think its a true blessing." said Eclipse.

They all nodded as they all kept a look around the building when Turbosky said, "I think I'll go scout the place out. Anyone coming?"

"I'll go." said Steeltrix as he got up. "The rest of us should keep a lookout for the others till they wake up."

Alec, Minty, and Eclipse all nodded as they kept their weapons out as they all looked around and as Turbosky got up, both he and Steeltrix trotted to the buildings main doors as they opened it and began to look around.

The lines form Steeltrix' plasma cutter and Turbosky's Plasma disruptor danced all around the area as the two stallions slowly trotted through the main road that was in the middle of the town, while the buildings were all lining it. It made it simpler for them to slowly patrol since everything was pretty much insight and though the walls still went out in a circle around the place, it wasn't that big so all they had to make sure was that they were aware of everything.

"So... do you think we can reach a inhabited place that is not full of necromorphs or psychopaths?" asked Turbosky.

"You mean Gryphon Rock? I don't actually know. For all we know, we could be heading for anywhere but Gryphon Rock." said Steeltrix as he looked around. "In fact, in bugs me that we haven't found a way to tell where we exactly are!"

As they trotted along, Steeltrix looked around as he sighed and said, "Maybe the only way we can get off this rock is by finding a space port or something...."

Tubosky nodded as he and Steeltrix stopped and began the trot back to the others.

Shining Armor watched the blizzard smash against the dome around Gryphon rock as it hammered ice and snow against it but he was just thankful that the "Necromorphs", as Steeltrix had called them, weren't attacking. It meant they had time to recuperate and prepare for the future.

Which was currently being rebuilt in the Gryphons Rocks only hangar. It was a Rebel cruiser, just barely big enough to get Shining Armor, his men, and the Rebels into Outer space once it was done. But as Shining Armor looked over to where it was being made, he wished he could send Steeltrix some coordinates to get him here.

Wait! Could do that! Don't Ice Skidders have Nav's that track coordinates? Thought Shining Armor. Only one way to find out!

He went to his communications lieutenant as he said, "Do you think we can raise Steeltrix?"

"Sir, it'll be difficult but maybe we could." said the stallion as he began to quickly type commands with his hoofs at the communication console.

As the stallion did this, Shining armor walked over to the nearby command table as he looked over the reports:

.... and the enemy is still coming from the sewers. We believe that the enemy is residing somewhere within the sewers in maybe a hive of some sort....
