[Ponyville]

Pineapple flees, in time for the greatest explosion since Twilight Sparkle got faintly annoyed with Spike to rock the library.
Whatever used to exist in there is most certainly not doing so anymore.

Good thing most of the raiders ran away!
Wait, no, that isn't a good thing, is it?

Probably less so when a raider with a long, rusty chain leaps out to cut him off. The weapon seems to have had various wooden and metal spikes rammed into the links, to make it properly dangerous.

Something it will be testing on Pineapple presently, with a swing at her head.


Razoreye takes potshots!

Single shots seem one of the less effective options available, as most of the raiders seem crazed enough to ignore anything that isn't instantly lethal.
Not to say they aren't effective...getting shot in the chest is probably fatal, but the victims don't really seem to be worried about it just yet.

Although it's just a satisfying as ever to launch a bullet off through a raider's head and watch them drop like a stone. {Raider Count: 16}

This strategy is going to become less effective as the raiders begin to scurry around various bits of cover through the square.

And then Pineapple's bomb forces Razoreye out of cover, and into the square!

Almost immediately, there's a whizz of a bullet, from a raider somewhere who seems to have acquired a gun.


Meanwhile, Lamianos decides to try herding them.
Surprisingly, not too many raiders seem eager to be directly in his path as he charges forward and most of the ones he's running towards are scurrying back around the library with loud cackles.
Well, until an explosive force knocks down a couple near a window. They're undoubtedly completely doomed. {Raider Count: 14}

The pink mare, however, has decided that that plan is dumb and seems to be aiming to slip into a nearby home.
Said building is largely boarded up, but one window seems to be uncovered and she's taking advantage of it.

"GRARAHAHAHA!"
Somehow, somewhen, a raider has managed to find a way to try to jump onto Lamianos' back, equipped with a nailboard.
Probably jumped off the roof of the library as the bomb went off.
Although there is the question of how he got up there.


By this point, the raiders are well and truly scattered. Save for the group being chased by Lamianos near the library, most are fairly separated.
Cover is being found little by little, and they're finding their weapons.
