The story starts at the ends of F.E.A.R. 2 (Spoiler Alert!)

****

"Becket!"

The phantom in front of his face is staring directly into his eyes, while they are struggling for a pistol. The muzzle of the pistol is pointed at Beckett`s forehead.

"Help me!"

The phantom is... WAS Harold Keegan, a member of Dark Signal, which is an elite strike team of Delta Force operatives. Because of the influence of Alma, a powerful psionic girl, he changed into said phantom. He was a good man and cared about his teammates. But that is past now...

Michael Becket uses his full strength in his hands to point the muzzle of the pistol at Harold's left temple.

He mutters: "I'm sorry..."

BANG!!!

Harold's body falls to the ground and vanishes into thin dust. Michael stand there for a second, thinking about Harold, his friend, who was killed by his own hands. But he had to do it. And now he has to stop Alma. He reach fo the last lever in the console before him and he pulls it down. Then he feel weakness in his body and he catch a glimpse at a figure at top of his body. He realizes it.

Alma has now some "fun" with him.

But suddenly, she is pushed back by a invisible force. Alma looks surprised and anger appears in her face. Michael's vision is surrounded by a faint blue, then darkness.

And then he loses consciousness...

*********************************************************************

Ponyville, Equestria, in another universe, 5 minutes ago

*********************************************************************

It is a wonderful day in Ponyville. The sun, which was raised by Princess Celestia, shines warmly at the ground. The ponies are going after their work and everything is just like any other day.

***********************

1 minute later

***********************

The sky turns into a dangerous red, and the clouds are moving themselves to a center area over the everfree forest. A lavender unicorn, Twilight Sparkle, stands on the balcony of her library. She never, ever saw something like this in her whole life. It looks dangerous and beautiful at the same time. Next to her stands a terrified dragon. It is her personal assistant, Spike, who watched the scene, too, with mouth agape.

"Wha... Whats this, Twilight?" asks Spike. No response from her.

"TWILIGHT!" yells Spike. "Huh? Did you ask something?" asks Twilight, not taking her eyes away from the clouds, which are now starting to spin around a big glistening bright sphere.

"W-what is happening over there?"

"I don't know, Spike. But this doesn't look-" Suddenly, a bright flash from the sphere crashs down into the forest. It caused a VERY loud bang and a light pressure wave. "WHAAAAAAAA!!?" both are screaming in shock. After the flash, the sphere disappears into nothing and the clouds parted away. The sky turns back into the blue just like minutes ago and the sun shines on the ground again. Its like nothing just happened. But all ponies in the town are shocked, although no physical harm was caused on a pony or an house... even in the place where the flash crashed in, there is no smoke or something new.

"Hmm, I think I have to investigate this place... but at first, I have to write a letter to the princess!" ,Twilight says to herself, "SPIKE! Where are you? We must write a letter to the princess!". No response. Twilight trots back into her library and looks for Spike. There he is, in his basket. He shakes allover in his body in fear and whimpers.

"Spike, its over now. You can go out of your basket now."

Slowly, he climbs out of his basket and looks through the window to the sky. After he realizes that the sphere and the spinning clouds are gone and the sky is blue, he let out a sigh of relief. "Wow, that was scary... Okay what I should write?"

Canterlot, Princess Celestias Castle

Princess Celestia, a white alicorn with waving, rainbow-colored mane, was on her window as the sky turned red. Now she stands still there, mouth agape. The door in her room shoots open and Princess Luna, an alicorn, too, but blue and smaller as her sister Princess Celestia, runs into her sister's room; with fear directly written in her face. Princess Celestia turns around and embrace her sister in a hug. "Its okay, its gone now..." Celestia tries to calm down her sister. Luna is crying, tears are falling down from her eyes onto her sister's shoulders.

Suddenly, a letter appears in front of Celestia and falls to the ground. Celestia picks it up with her magic/telekinesis, opened it and starts to read. "Ah, it's from my faithful student Twilight Sparkle."

Luna has now calmed down, and asks "What did she wrote?"

"She asks for investigating the place where the flash crashed in... I will let her, but she has to take her friends with her..."

Luna hangs her head down and whispers "I hope she will do the right thing if there is something..."

Everfree Forest

-Music (Please open a new tab)-

"Oooh..."

Michael Becket slowly wakes up and tries to open his eyes, but he couldn`t. The sunlight is too much bright.

"I am in heaven?" he asks to himself, as his eyes just adjusted to the bright sunlight. "Well, if this is heaven, then why the hell I am in a forest?". He looks around carefully and tries to get up on his feet. (Author`s note: NO, he is not turned into a pony, he is still a human and he wears still his combat suit.)

"No, I am not in heaven... I have still my weapons..."

He still wears his Patten PK470 Assault Rifle, Seegert ACM46 Pistol, SHO Series-3 Combat Shotgun and Raab KM50 Sniper Rifle, some grenades and a proximity mine. The weapons he carried before he encounters the evil-turned Harold Keegan. Still fully loaded.

"I have to look where I am."

He opens the map in his blue goggles, but they are showing the "NO MAPDATA/UNKNOWN LOCATION" error.

"Shit, this is awkward..." He starts to walk, to find a way out of the strange forest...

Fluttershy's cottage

"Fluttershy, come out. We have to investigate something in the Everfree Forest!",Rainbow Dash yells, "and we need you, if we are encounting a strange creature!"

"NO!"

"Wha..? But we all are going with you, me, Applejack, Twilight, Rarity and Pinkie Pie!"

"NO!"

Rainbow Dash turns around to her friends and say "Sorry Girls, but when she say no, that means no..."

Twilight hang her head down and says "Ok... we are going without her... Rainbow Dash?"

"Yes?"

"I want you to fly above the forest and look for strange beings. Is that clear?"

Rainbow Dash salutes and yells "Sir, yes, Sir!" and flies away. Twilight says "And the rest... with me!"

"Okay!" all the other of her friends says in one unison. And they walked into the forest...

Rainbow Dash PoV

Rainbow Dash needs less than 1 minute to fly to the place where the flash crashed in. As she approaches, she see that there's no damage done, just a small crater... with strange marks in it. She lands next to the crater and soon she finds strange foot tracks next to it... which she never saw before. The tracks are leading deep into the forest and in the direction of ponyville. She stands there for about a minute, to digest the image of a alien, which is lurking around in the forest and is now walking directly to the town. Then she thinks "Hmm... if I manage to capture the alien, everyone will cheer to me and I will be the hero of the month!". A big grin appears on her face. She takes off, searching for the creature.

5 Minutes passing by and then she see something moving in the forest. She approaches carefully, not to draw the attention of the alien to herself.

It looks strange.

It walks on two legs, like a diamond dog, but it has no fur. It wears clothes. And then they are this strange... gadgets it carrys on its body. Maybe they are laser guns?

She wastes no time.

She increases her speed, diving to the ground, trying to tackle the alien to the ground and calling her friends for help. She is so close at the creature now...

Michael Becket PoV

Michael Becket is now walking for about 15 minutes, as suddenly he feels something approaching behind him FAST.

"Oh great!"

Slow-mo On

The world around him seems to slow down by the rate of five. His vision stretched a little bit and is tinted in a very faint green. (Author`s note: I use the Slow-mo style of F.E.A.R. 2)

He turns around, only to see a cyan pegasus with rainbow-coloured mane just 2 metres away, approaching fast. Then he does the right thing.

He side-rolls to the right and ducks down.

Slow-mo Off

The pegasus watches in horror as the creature dodge to the site with an incredible speed. At first, it is impressed, but after milliseconds it realizes that it is still on full speed. And the tree in front of it comes nearer and nearer...

*CRASH* (It crashes into a tree)

*CRACK* (It dislocates its right wing bone)

"AAAAAAAAAH!!!!" (Pain)

"Thats weird. The pegasus just... SCREAMS?! What the Fuck?!" Michael asks to himself. He turns around to the pegasus who whinces at the ground, with a dislocated wing, a small spot of blood appears on its wing. "Its voice... its a female? Ok, thats definitely NOT heaven!" The pegasus mare looks with tearfilled eyes on Michael, as he approaches to her.

"Please... don't hurt or kill me *sob*... ooh... my wing", she whinces to him.

Michael's jaw drops as he heard that pegasus speaking. He wants to say something, as suddenly the bushes behind him are starting to shake. He looks behind himself and see a bunch of wolves he never seen before. They are looking like normal wolves, except that they are made of... wood?

The wolves are starting to circling around him and the pegasus mare, but they are mostly looking at the injured pegasus. But they do not care about killing Michael if he stands in the way. The are growling at him, as he stands in front of the injured pegasus. Michael wastes no time, he know what is to do. He take out his Combat Shotgun, checks the chamber if it's loaded and aims at the nearest wolf. Normally, he wouldn't hurt or kill an animal. But there's something in his mind...

The wolf jumps on him... to no avail...

*BOSH*

The head of the wolf explodes in a shower of blood, pieces of brain and splitters of the skull. Something hit becket at his combat suit, leaves thick, red patches on it...

"AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"

"Rainbow Dash!!!" gasping everypony as they are hearing her scream. Seconds later, a loud thunderclap occurs, which send everypony in shock. One moment later there are more such sounds and a loud yell. But the yell doesn't sound like Rainbow Dash...

"LET'S GO'GIRLS. SHE IS'IN TROUBLE!!!" yells Applejack, to move the girls on. She carries a long rope with her, ready to catch the thing that possibly sets RD in danger. As they are approaching the source of the sounds, they see the most

terrifying scene which they never see before.

In a clearing there are lying several bodies on the floor, each one surrounded by a pool of their own blood. It is not able to recognize what the bodies were once before... And in the middle of the massacre, there lies the strange creature, holding a metallic stock in his hands. A wolf is standing over him, biting in the stock and knocks the stock away from the alien. Then the wolf tries to snap in the alien's limbs, but the creature hold the head of the wolf back with his... hooves?

"Argh! You want to taste me? Taste my boots, you son of a bitch!" with this words, the alien starts to kick in the wolf's face. They all are surprised that this alien can speak flawless equstrian...

The wolf whimpers, let's go off the creature and flees back into the deep woods of the forest. Some seconds passed by, and the alien stands up and walks to the injured RD.

"DON'T TOUCH HER!!!" screams Rarity. Michael spins around and sees more ponies. But he doesn't attack or makes another attempts to do something. Instead of that, he holds up his hands in the air and says "I... I just... h-how... What The Hell?"

They stares at each other for one minute. It feels like a hour. Then Twilight looks to her friends and they give all a nod to her. Then she takes a few steps forward and says "Hello... my name is Twilight... uhm... welcome in Equestria... Mr. Alienthing...y... "

Yep, that's definitely a female Michael thinks to himself. He thinks what he can say to... her. Then he thinks, he could start with the easiest thing for a greeting.

"Hello, Mrs... Twilight... my name is Michael Becket and I just want to help your little friend here", he pointed at the cyan pegasus mare, "your friend tried to tackle me, but instead she crashed in a tree and she dislocates one of her wings and..."

He is cut off by Twilight.

"No time for further explainings. We must get her to Fluttershy immidiately!"

10 minutes later

No of the ponies says a word during the trip to Fluttershy's cottage. Either they are shocked about the sight of mangled bodies which they saw before, or they are taking care of Rainbow Dash, who is being carried by Michael Becket at his back.

Applejack is impressed by his strength in his body.

But everyone has a question in their mind: How he could managed to avoid being tackled down by Rainbow Dash? Nopony ever before was able to do this!

They are arriving at Fluttershy's cottage. Twilight knocks at the door and yells "Flutteshy! We need your help! Rainbow Dash is injured!" - "Ok, I'm coming", Fluttershy yells back and opens the door, "I'm here and... EEP!" When she sees Michael with his bloodstained suit, she falls back on her haunches and hides her face behind her mane. She is too scared to say something and avoids eye contact with Michael.

"Fluttershy? Somepony here is injured" says Rarity and points at RD with her hoof. Immidiately, Fluttershy stands up and pointed at her couch. "Lie her down there" she commands and opens her first aid kit. Michael trots over to the couch and putting her down carefully. Fluttershy flies over to RD, not taking care of Michael who stands next to her.

"Her wing is dislocated and I have to bring it back, but I don't know how she could stand over the pain..." Fluttershy mutters.

"I think that I have the solution", Michael says and puts out a syringe out of his pocket, "this is a painkiller and it should handle with her pain, so that you can bring her wing back." - "Oh... ok" she mutters.

One minute later and Rainbow Dash's wing is back where it belongs. Now they all are sitting in Fluttershy's living room, looking at each other and animals everywhere...

"So, I think everyone has questions for you. I suggest that one ask you a question, you answer it, then turn around and so on, ok?" asks Twilight.

Michael thinks about it, and says "Yes, okay. So, what's your first question?"

Twilight asks "What are you? I've never seen a creature like you before!" - "I'm a human. Now it's my turn: What are you? Are you horses, or what?"

She giggles "No, we are not horses. We are ponies. There exists 4 different types of ponies. As you can see, I'm a unicorn. Rarity here is a unicorn, too. Unicorns can perform magic. Then we have earthponies, like pinkie pie and applejack. The earthponies are responsible for growing plants and harvesting them. Pegasi are responsible for the weather. They are moving clouds and making snow in the winter. And last, but not least, there are alicorns, ponies with both wings and horn. They are very powerful. Our Princess Celestia is an alicorn and so is her sister, Princess Luna. Celestia raises and sets the sun, Luna raises and sets the moon."

Michael's face changes from surprise to confuseness "What, stop. You have magic? Pegasi are making the weather? Two ponies are responsible for day and night? What's this for a world?" - "Don't you have magic in your world? Look, I will show it to you!" with this words, Twilight starts to levitate a glass in front of Michael. Michael face... doesn't change... he doesn't seem to be impressed.

"Doesn't look like magic to me..."

"WHA..?!" gasps everyone as he says that.

"You heard it. This doesn't look like magic to me. I think it's something that is called... telekinesis. And where I came from, it has devastating consequences..." - "Who could do so something terrible? Tell me what happened!" gasps Rarity.

"I... I don't want to talk about that... please... next question" mutters Michael. The ponies around him can see the anger and sadness in his face...

"Why are you wearing clothes? Do you wear clothes all the time? What are you wearing now?" asks Rarity curiousily. She has already new ideas in her mind.

Michael smiles "As you can see, I have no fur. If I ran around naked, I could easily get a cold. And except for this, the clothing covers my... *cough* private areas *cough*!" Everyone are blushing at this words. "And I'm wearing a combat suit at the moment..."

"A combat suit? Are you a royal guard?"- "What? No... I'm a Delta Force member a Elite Strike Team, called 'Dark Signal' " he explains.

Quizzical looks.

"*Sigh* Its like a royal guard, except that you are not guarding royalty. It's more like field duty. But before you ask, what I am EXACTLY doing, please ask your next question."

It's now Pinkie's turn to ask: "Do you like parties?" - "Huh... what?" - "I said, do you like parties, you silly. I want to throw a welcome-party for you!"

Michael looks over to the other mares, who give him all a smiling nod: "Just say 'Yes!' "

"Yes...?"

"HOOOOHAAAJ! PARTY!!!" and pinke disappears in a pink blur. "Is she always like that? Looks like she eats too much sugar!" Michael determines, totally surprised.

"It's just Pinkie being Pinkie." says Twilight. It's now Rainbow Dash turn to ask Michael something...

"Sorry again for trying to tackle you down... but how you could manage to dodge me with this incredible amount of speed?"

Michael eye's goes wide, then he explains "I'm capable of react at a super human level. This ability is called 'Slow-mo'. When I use this ability, the world around me seems to slow down at a rate of five, while I can still react and move in normal time. While it's very helpful in life-threatening situations, I can just use it for a few seconds..."

Twilight looks with a surprised face at him. "Not even the Princesses are capable to use this ability..." mutters Twilight to herself. "Is that good or bad?" he asks.

"I don't know. I have to inform the Princess later about this..."

Applejack looks at Michael's legs since they are in Fluttershy's cottage. Michael realizes this now and asks "Is there something?" - "Wat?", she starts blush, "No, I am ask myself ho' strong ar'ya! Can ya' buck' a tree?" - "Buck a tree?" - "I men'... kick' a tree'? Yar' legs ar' lookin' pretty strong!"

"Thanks." smiles Michael, almost laughing at this compliment, then he looks over to Fluttershy, who is still hiding behind her mane. Michael tries to break the ice, smiles to her and says "What do you want to know about me?"

"I-I... want to kn-know... if it's okay for yo-you... what are you eat-eating? I... saw... that you... ha-have omnivore the-theeth..." she squeaks as she said 'theeth'.

Shit he thinks. Now they are all going nuts...

"Oh dear Celestia, he eats the meat of others?" gasps Rarity.

"Thats disgusting. How you could do so something terrible?" yells Rainbow Dash.

"If'ya eat anypony, then ah will com' to ya and buck ya yar..." growls Applejack.

"I'm sorry... I didn't want to... EEP!" cried Fluttershy.

"But I don't have to eat meat. If I get all necessary nutrients over vegetables and fruits, I'm going well! Please, don't screw me up because I can eat meat." says Michael. All ponies are sighing in relief. Michael wants to turn their attention away from what humans eat, so he asks "What means these tattos on you rear ends?"

"These? These are called 'cutie-marks'. They are represent our special talent. Mine is magic." says Twilight

"And mah's is for growin' and harvestin' appletrees!" exclaims Applejack.

"My is generosity!" says Rarity.

"Mine is for speed and controlling weather!" yells Rainbow Dash, making a salto in the air. Her wing is fully regenerated.

"Uhm... mine is... f-for kindness. I c-can speak to-o animals..." whispers Fluttershy.

"Uhm... do ya' have a cutie-mark?" asks Applejack curiosly.

"No. Humans don't have cutie-marks or any other representation of their special talent." says Michael flatly.

"Oh, I'm so sorry darling", Rarity says to him, "But if you have a special talent, what would it be?"

"Protect and Assault. My occupation is elite soldier. Sorry that I didn't told it to you earlier."

"Oh, that's great... my brother Shining Armor is captain in the royal guards. It would be a pleasure for him to meet you later." says Twilight, "And that leads me to my question, do humans have weapons?" - "I hoped you didn't ask that, but whatever..."

With this words, he puts all his weapons on the table. The ponies are approaching them in curiosity.

"They are don't looking sharp or dangerous... boring!" yawns Rainbow Dash.

"Well, these weapons are called firearms. They are not made for close-battle, except for the shotgun", he points at the long stock in the middle, "They are firing little metal pieces like this", he pulls the magazine out from his assault rifle, pulls out a bullet and hold it in front of the ponies, so everyone gets a good sight on it, "This is called a bullet casing. There's a powder in it which explodes when the little area on the rear of the casing is hit. The explosion pulls the bullet out of his casing and it exits the muzzle of the weapon at a very high speed." - "Faster than me?" asks Rainbow Dash.

"I don't know how fast you can fly, all I can say is that the bullet will hit the sound-barrier and beyond. If the bullet hits a target... well, the bullets can easily pierce through skin, bones and flesh, causing heavy injures and death", then he points at the sniper rifle, "The same, but for longer distances, the fire rate is slower and the bullets are bigger. Then the shotgun. Rainbow Dash saw it in action. It fires little bullets, but hundreds per shot. And at last the pistol. It's a backup weapon if you ran out of ammo of your other weapons..."

The ponies are horrified. So much damage, caused by little pieces of metal. But Twilight goes on "And what are these for balls?" - "These are called grenades. If there's a group of enemies, you pull out the pin of a grenade and throw the grenade at the enemies. After three seconds, the grenade will explode, causing very heavy damage or death to the enemies. These type with the flash on it, are called shock grenades. You can use them to pin down enemies by not harming them. And this is called fire grenade. It causes fire, like the name says. And this is a proximity mine. It can stick on almost every surface. If an enemy is too close at the mine... you know what happens..." with this, he ends his presentation with a face, in which everypony can see that he didn't enjoy it.

"It's okay... well it's pretty late. Maybe we should search a place for him to sleep?" Twilight tries to change the subject.

Rainbow Dash opens her mouth to say something, but she is cut off by Applejack "He can sleep in' mah' barn!", she looks over to Michael, who is smiling warmly at her, "if that's oka' for ya'..." - "Yes, I would really appreciate that. Thank you very much. I haven't slept since the last three days."

"Well, wa' we ar' still her' ?" Applejack grins.

Sweet Apple Acres, 10 Minutes later

Before they went to the farm, Rarity cleans Michaels suit with her magic. It looks like new now...

The trip to the farm wasn't special. There were some ponies who lookes terrified by the sight of Michael. Some were whispering about bald monkey, diamond dog and more, but Michael wasn't paying attention...

Michael Becket and Applejack are standing in the barn. There's a bed and a commode.

"This is more than enough, thank you."

"Well, if ya' need' somethin', just lemme' kno' it!", says Applejack, "Sleep well, we hav' a bunch' of work in tha' mornin'!"

"Okay, thank you very much", he says, "Good night!" - "Good nit' "she says back. And with that she trots off.

Michael looks around and goes to his bed and sits on the edge. He thinks about the situation in his world and the fate of his teammates... as suddenly someone knocks at the door. Michael walks over and opens the door.

There stands Rainbow Dash, who looks at the ground...

"Oh, hi... I am going to the bed at the moment, but whatever. Why are you here?"

She blushes "Umm... sorry but I must thank you. You saved my life..." - "Oh that was nothin... umpf" , she hugs him.

"Thank you" she whispers in his ear. Michael was stunned.

After some moments, she lets him go and stands in front of him.

"Do you want to hang out with me tomorrow?" she asks him playfully. "Well, we will see... I have something to do tomorrow. But after I finished it, we will have some time. Is that okay?"

"Ok, see ya tomorrow." she flies off and takes into the air.

"Ciao"

He closes the door and trots over to his bed, again. He is totally tired and he falls on the bed. After some moments, he drives off into sleep, finally after three days of fighting for his life...

Ponyville, Library

As she gets home, she immidiately informs Spike about the newcomer. He just nods at her words.

Then she writes a letter to the Princess:

Dear Princess Celestia,

I found a totally new creature in the forest. He is the cause of the incident today. The creature is a species called 'human' , but don't worry. His name is 'Michael Becket', he is nice and he means no harm to the others, although he has brought some weapons with him from his world.  He saved Rainbow Dash from timberwolves and I think we should learn more about him. Maybe you could come to my library tomorrow?

Your faithful student,

Twilight Sparkle

She finishes the letter and hold it over to Spike, who burns the letter to sending it to the Princess. But Twilight is nervous. How will the princess react to him? Will she ban him from Equistria? Why she would do that?

"Nah, I overreact again. Everything will be fine!"

Suddenly, Spike hold his stomach and he burps out a letter from the princess. He opens it and starts to read:

"My faithful student Twilight Sparkle

I received your letter. I thank you that you informed me about the human. I will come to your library about 13 o'clock and talk to him. We will find a solution to send him back to his world. Also please note that I have to read his memories.

Yours,

Princess Celestia"

Twilight sighs in relief. "Puh, she wants to know him... okay I will go to the bed now. Good Night Spike!"

****

Canterlot, Princess Celestias Castle, lower floors

A lonely pegasus guard walks through the corridors. All other guards are guarding the outer sectors of the castle or are sleeping.

He trots over to the next crossing, as he hears someone crying... the sounds of crying are coming from the corridor to his left.

"Who's there?" he asks carefully. Sobbing

"It's okay. I'm here. Please come out. I don't want to hurt you!" The sobbing stops

He walks into the corridor. It is dark and he can't see where he steps...

Suddenly, his right hindleg sticks in something. "Perfect, my colleagues are playing a prank on me with glue... Okay, guys, you got me!" he exclaims. But this isn't a prank.

His mood changes from annoyed to concern. "Guys...?" he whispers. To his shock, all his other legs are stucking in the floor and he feels something is dragging him in the floor.

-Music (Please open a new tab!)-

"HEEELP. SOMEPONY, PLEASE HEEELP!!!" he screams in fear. His heart rate increases to a very high level and he starts to sweat. But his yelling is swallowed by the deepness of the castle... his lower body half is dragging down in the floor, as he feels a severe pain on his hindlegs. They are going to be cutted of...

The guard shrieks in pain and horror, as suddenly a creature emerges from the floor. It has a long face, but with lifeless eyes and a mouth. It's skin is dirty brown with bloodstains on it and it has long razor-sharp fingers. The creature lungs out with his hands at the throat of the guard...

Blood is emerging from his slashed open throat like from a hosepipe and makes a red, warm pool. The poor pegasus tries to yell again, but he only manages a quiet gargle, as his own blood makes his way down his lungs. He knows that this is his end and he wents limp.

The creature makes a distorted deep scream and drags the lifeless body of the guard in the ground...

*SPLAT!*

A shower of blood and pieces of flesh explodes from the place where the guard was dragged in. Then, suddenly everything is quiet.

The corridors are back in their stillness like before.

Only a big, red puddle with some red meat chunks around it is the only witness of that, what happened just seconds before...

Ponyville, Sweet Apple Acres

"Michael! Wake up!" she yells.

Michael's eyes are opening within a split second, he jumps from his bed and unholsters his pistol "What is happening?"

"Wohaa... relax, evrythin' is fine'. Com' on, we are havin' breakfast!" says Applejack.

Michael groans "Oh man, never wake me up like that again!" - "Hehe... I'm sorry"

As they are stepping in the kitchen, he meets the rest of her family. A green pony with white mane is sitting in a rocking chair; a pony with blonde mane and a red fur trots over to the table and a little red-maned filly with yellow fur and a ribbon in her mane. They all are looking with big eyes at Michael.

"Don't worry guys'. He cams' to auer' world yesterday and he mens' no harm' to as'. His name is Mishel' Begget' and he is a Hyooman!" Applejack explains. 'Mishel' could not help at chuckling at her southern accent.

"Well welcom' to our little farm, big guy! Feel yourself like home! My name is Granny Smith." exclaims the green old pony.

As she says 'home', Michael's face freezes.

"Oh, is something wrong, big guy?" asks the pony with red fur.

"Nothing... just... nothing" he mutters. But Applejack knows better. She feels that he is lying.

"You're lying. Please tell us... me the truth." she looks into his grey eyes, but he is avoiding the eye contact "No... please... let us make breakfast"

Applejack just shrugs. Then she starts to introduce the two other members of her family to Michael.

After finishing breakfast which was REALLY DELICIOUS for him, Michael and Applejack are going out, to a apple tree.

"So, at first ah' will show ya' how to buck a tree'! Then it's ya turn!" with that words, she turns around and gives the tree behind her a strong kick with her hindlegs. All apples from the tree are falling down to the ground.

"Now ya'! Buck that tree!" she points at a random tree "Just kick this tree?" - "Yeah!" - "Ok."

He walks away from the tree a  few metres, then he sprints at the tree. Just metres away from the trunk, he jumps in the air and he bicyclekicked the tree. Some pieces of the tree rind are chipped away. All apples and a big tree branch are falling to the ground.

Applejack stands there, mouth agape. "Dude, how did ya' do that'. That was... whoa! Tell me' how ya' learn that'! An' tell me the truth!" - "Okay... but please don't go mad! Promise me that." he says.

"Okay! Cross my hard', hope to fli', stick a cupcake in ma' eye!" she puts a hoof to her right eye. Michael is surprised "What was that for?" - "Well, that was da' Pinkie Promise!" - "Hmm, whatever, just don't get mad!"

Michael takes a deep breath, then he says "This legs killed more enemies as you kicked trees... I think..."

Applejack was mentally stunned. "So ya'... killed..."

"Yes, but it was self-defense and duty in one..." he mutters. Applejack shakes her head "It's okay, it's okay..."

"MICHAEL!!! APPLEJACK!!!" shouts somepony.

They are turning around and watching a lavender coloured pony running to them. It's Twilight. As she approaches, she pants "The *gasp* Princesses are... coming. *gasp* You must come... to my library..."

Ponyville, Library

Pinkie Pie is not in the library. Twilight says that she has work to do.

After some minutes after arriving at the library, a golden chariot which is carried by two white pegasi, lands outside of the tree. Two large creature ponies with crowns, wings and horns are stepping out from the chariot.

Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. They are stepping in the library...

Michael sits on a chair at a table and waits. As the Princesses are seeing Michael, they are shocked. None of them are expecting a living being like him. Michael just stares at the Princesses, then he stands up, goes to them and helds a hand to them "It's a pleasure to meet you, ma'am!" He stands on eye-level with Celestia. She just looks at his hand. She knows the gesture, but she has never seen a hand before.

"Oh sorry, your highness!" he exclaims. He takes his hand back, stand straight and salutes in front of her.

"Huh? No no...", she chuckles, "It's not that. I just was wondering what... whatever. Welcome to Equistria, Sir Becket. It's a pleasure to meet you, too." - "Sir Becket? No, I'm in the position of a sergeant!" - "You're are a soldier? Well, that makes it easier! We are here to say that we can send you back to your world and..." she is cut off by Michael.

"No."

"What?!" says everypony

"No!"

Princess Celestia is shocked, "But you have a family in you world..."

"They're dead..." says Michael monotonically.

"Your friends?" asks Luna, terrified.

"Murdered..."

"Anyone you are close?" asks Luna again

"They all ARE FUCKING DEAD!!!" he yells, and he looks around, "...sorry for my outburst"

"Oh dear... if you don't mind can I read your memories?" asks Celestia, the tears are welling up in her eyes.

"Hmph, you can, but you will not be happy about what you will find..." he says flatly.

Celestia raises her horn to his forehead. Just as the tip of her horn hits his forehead, her eyes goes wide.

Within a split second, she snap her head back and falls to the ground, panting heavily and fast.

"Princess Celestia!!!" yells everypony, except Luna; she asks Michael "What you've done?" while moving to her sister.

"I did nothing! She was that who read one's mind!" he yells.

Princess Celestia knows now everything. Well, ALMOST everything.

The explosion.

The surgery on Michael Becket (and the gruesome nightmare).

The horror in the underground hospital.

The abominations.

The fate of his teammates.

The rest is still black...

Slowly, Princess Celestia recovers and her breathing returns to normal. "Tia! Are you alright?" asks Luna, some tears are falling down from her cheeks.

"Uhm... yes... I didn't expect so much memories in such a short time... and the contents in it..." she mutters and stand up, "I know it's not the right time, but we must get to my castle as soon as possible!"

"Okay, if it is nothing more." he says, as suddenly he feel a severe pain in his right temple. His goggles are starting to scramble. He falls to the ground, yelling in pain. All ponies are looking shocked, as he spasmed on the floor.

-Music (Please open a new Tab)-

Hallucination

Michael Becket recovers fast and he looks around. But the surrounding around him has changed. He sees bloodstained skeletons. EQUINES skeletons. There are seven overall, still smoking, scattered around in the library, bloody smudges on every surface. Two of them have still a crown on their horned skull. He stands up and steps out of the library. Ponyville isn't behind the door anymore. The sky isn't blue, it's red. The cloud are moving fast from east to west and smell of decay is in the air. Michael stands on a hill. On the hill there's a huge tree, a swing hanging from it.

"Oh no..." he mutters...

(Stop music here)

Michael's eyes shoots open again and looks around. The surrounding is back to normal, except that a rainbow-maned pegasus mare stands on his chest.

"Rainbow... Dash... can't catch... my... breath" he pants. She jumps from his chest.

"Sorry, I was worried", she says.

"Mmmh... yes, I had just an... Oh shit!" he stutters.

"What's wrong? What is it?" Rainbow Dash asks concerned.

"I just had an hallucination, and I saw you all..." - "What did you saw about us?" - "...dead..."

Everyone gasps at this word, even the Princesses.

Then Celestia says "My Little Ponies and Human, we have to go to my Castle immidiately!"

"Okay, but under one condition..." Michael says.

Canterlot, Princess Celestias Castle

They are going through the big halls and corridors of Celestias castle.

"It's okay that you put value on protection, but why did you take your... Assault Rifle with you?" asks Twilight.

"Because I have a very bad feeling about this..." he whispers.

Princess Luna doesn't take her eyes away from the gun. Man, these creature are really attached to this weapons she thinks.

As they are arriving at the throne hall, Princess Celestia leaps up with her wings and sits herself down at her throne. Next to her is sitting a white unicorn with blue-coloured mane.

"Shining Armor!" Twilight exclaims and runs to her big brother and embraces him.

"Hey Twily, I am so happy to see you" Shining Armor says, "So that's the human you talked about. Well..."

Michael takes a few steps forward to Shining Armor and salutes. Shining Armor returns the gesture with a big grin in his face.

"At least he shows respect" he determines "So, Mr. Becket, what's your position?" - "My position is Sergeant at the elite strike team Dark Signal!" he exclaims. Shining Armor is impressed.

"Do you have combat skills?" - "I have Combat skills in firearms and close-battle!" - "Then show me something. But not here right now..." he looks to Princess Celestia, who gives him a nod, "Okay, come with me, Sergeant Becket!"

After some minutes of walking, they are arriving in a big training area. There are some recruits who are practicing with wooden swords.

"So, just for today, show me some of your close-battle skills!" Shining Armor exclaims. He picks up two wooden swords with his telekinetic grip and throws one to Michael. But he doesn't catch it. "Hey, what's with you?" Shining asks.

"I don't need a sword. Of course I don't need my weapon right now, too." he says and puts his AR on the ground.

"Ok if you want... then let's fight!" yells Shining. Twilight says "Are you sure about this. I forgot to say, that he has a special ability...", but Shining says "Well, let's just see who wins..."

Shining Armor starts to circling Michael, but he just stands there. Then he figures out a plan in his brain...

Slow-mo On

He just walks to Shining. As Shining sees him approaching, he swings his sword from from top to bottom, but Michael dodges his attack with ease. Then he kicked the sword away in mid-air, releasing it from Shining's telekinetic grip... then he just grabs the sword with his hands, rushes to Shining, tackles him down and holds the sword at the captains throat.

Slow-mo Off

Even Celestia's jaw drops as she sees a winning Michael over Shining. Twilight is surprised, normally her brother would win in a sword-fight...

Shininig is stunned. That was too fast for him. Michael releases him and says "Well, I don't even have practical experiences in fighting with swords."

Shining stands up, smiles and says "Whoa, that was impressive? How did you learn that? And what is the special ability Twily talked about?"

Michael then explains about his 'Slow-mo' ability.

Shining says smiling "Hey, then this was cheating."

They both shared a lough, as suddenly a female servant pony rushes to them, screaming the whole time...

"AAAAAAH!!! HELP!!!"

"What is it, Serving Star? What's the matter?" Celestia asks worried.

But Serving Star just manages incomprehensible words, while gasping heavily.

"Please, calm down..." she says.

Finally, she calms down, takes a few deep breaths and says "I-I s-saw... I-I-I walked... *deep breath*  I just walked through the lower floors of the castle as suddenly I smell decay. I fo-followed the smell, when I saw-w that corridor. In the middle of it, there was a... big spot of blood and some chunks of... MEAT!!!"

She started to hyperventilate. Fluttershy rushes to Serving Star, hugs her, trying to calm her down.

"Okay while you calm her down, we are going to the lower floors of the castle." says Celestia and moves on. Princess Luna, Shining Armor, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Rarity followed her,

Michael picks up his AR, and runs to the group, trying to follow, too.

They are walking down stairs and corridors. Suddenly, Rarity holds her snout and says "Aaah, what's that for a awful smell?"

Celestia sniffed, too, and says "We are close..." At next crossing, they are going to the right and seeing the crime scene.

In the middle of the corridor, there are big patches of dried blood. Maggots are crawling around the pieces of flesh. It is an horrible sight.

Michael steps to the biggest patch of blood...

*SCREEECH*

His feets are surrounded by a black liquid, he can't move them. A creature emerges from the ground, the same creature which killed the guard, and starts to lung out at Michael...

Everypony shrieks in horror, and Shining Armor starts to summon a spell for Michael which should push him away... but he is interrupted by a steady rhythm of loud thunderclaps, which sends all ponies again in shock.

Then they are hearing a high-pitched scream...

When they are opening their eyes, they all sighing in relief. Michael still stands there, the muzzle of his AR is smoking, twelve empty bullet casings are surrounding his feet. The monster is nowhere to be found, instead there is a small crater in the floor, a few inches deep.

"Well, that was new!" mutters Michael, walking to the group of terrified ponies.

"Wha-what was that?" asks Twilight. "I don't know, but I know the cause." he says.

"Who or what is the cause. Please tell it us!" says Princess Celestia.

"...Alma..."

-Music (Please open a new Tab)-

"Who is Al-" she asks, as everypony, with the exception of Michael, are hurling against the wall. Michael's goggles are scrambling heavily. Rainbow Dash tries to struggle her free with her wings, but to no avail. And Applejack tries to stood on all four on the wall, but she can't move her legs. The Princesses aren't moving, but they are looking around with their eyes wildly. Rarity just screams in terror. Shining couldn't see, he lies on the wall with his belly...

There is orange-coloured fog in the air and suddenly a humanoid figure appears in the end of the corridor. In an instant, she stands in front of the ponies. Everypony are getting now a clear sight of the humanoid creature.

It walks on two legs like Michael and has long, black hair. Its skin is dirty brown, like the skin from the creature in the floor.

It's eyes are missing and the mouth look dried. From all what the ponies can see, the creature is looking DEAD...

Celestia and Luna are trying to summon an offensive spell, but their horn are just emitting some harmless sparkles. Alma is blocking their magic.

"Hey, you bitch. You want me? I'm here!" yells Michael, trying to get Alma's attention. Alma turns to him.

Michael hopes that he can save the lives of the ponies, although he can probably loses his own...

But Alma shakes her head... and points with her finger at...

...the Princesses...

She has already new interests in these powerful beings.

"NOO!" yells Twilight and uses her full force to shooting a sparkling beam at Alma. But Alma just disappears and appears in an instant in front of her...

Twilight is hurled against the ceiling. It doesn't hurt her much, but she feel something new: Death Anxiety. She began to weepy bitterly.

(Stop Music Here)

With all at once, it's over. The Princesses, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Shining Armor and Rarity are falling from the wall to the ground.

Twilight falls on her belly. THAT hurt's her. Michael rushes to her, turns her to her back and asks "Is everything alright?"

She is still crying, but she nods. The rest of the group are standing up and are galloping to her, too. After some moments, she stands up and hugs Michael. He returns the gesture by wrapping his arm around her. She is still sobbing...

"I wasn't able to do something... but how... and why?" Celestia mutters to herself. Michael releases Twilight, stands up and says "Because she can block areas in the brains of her victims..." - "Wad' els' she can do'?" asks Applejack angrily.

"She can summon fire, create apparitions like the monster in the floor, telekinesis and, for which she is quite famous, liquefying the flesh of living beings in split of seconds." explains Michael, not taking his eyes away from the sobbing Twilight, "You all could be glad that she didn't murder one of us..."

"Oh... dear..." Princess Luna is stunned. She is ready for anything anytime, but LIQUEFYING the flesh of a living thing, that is too much for her. She feel a wince in her stomach, then she vomits on the floor.

"Oh... no... Luna!" yells Celestia and hold her sister, so that she can't fall over, "Okay, this is a serious situation. I want you all go back to Ponyville and wait for further instruction. Now, go go go!"

Even in a life threatening situation or after, she keeps her head clear...

Ponyville, 30 Minutes later

18:30

The group of ponies and a human are walking through Ponyville. They aren't heading for the library, they are heading for... Sugarcube Corner. Rainbow Dash says that Pinkie Pie prepared something, but each of them knows WHAT she prepared. And they need it now...

As they are stepping through the door of the bakery, they can see that the lights are turned off... then suddenly they are turned on. They can see a crowd of colorful ponies with party hats; there are 40 overall.

"WELCOME TO PONYVILLE, STRANGE CREATURE!!!" shouts everypony.

This is followed by the best party they ever had, except for Michael. He never was on a party. And he can feel now something that he has not felt in a long time: Happiness.

He tastes one of the Cupcakes, which were baked by Pinkie, and they are EXTREMELY DELICIOUS for him. He takes another cupcake and Pinkie appears in front of him "It tastes good to you?" - "They're great!!!" he exclaims and eats more of them. Pinkie just laughs at his look, his mouth is full with cupcake mass.

They are forgetting about the incident today and having a lot of fun.

At 22 o'clock the party ends and all are going to their home.

Michael walks to the barn on the farm, as he hears flapping wings behind him. It is Rainbow Dash.

"Do you care if can sleep with you in your bed?", then she starts blushing, "No, it's nothing like that! I...I-I...!"

"It's okay, Rainbow Dash, it's okay..." he smiles.

They stepping in the barn, heading for the bed and dropping in. Both of them are driving off in sleep fast...

INTERVAL 03- Intruders

11:45

Rainbow Dash wakes up late in the morning and opens her eyes. She sits up, looks around and realizes that Michael is not in the barn. Her eyes wanders over his body vest, which Michael has left. She jumps out of the bed and trots out of the barn.

Michael left the barn at 9 o’clock to work at the farm. Applejack kicks the trees, the apples are falling into the baskets, which are placed under the trees. Then Michael carries the full baskets to applejacks apple cellar. He is sweating.“Okay, Big Guy. Jus’ thes’ baskeds’ , then we ar’ done fo’ today!” she exclaims to him. He nods to her. Then Michael spots Rainbow Dash and waves to her “Good Morning, Rainbow Dawdler!”“Good Morning, Michael Bucket!” she yells to him. Michael laughs “My friend Jedd called my like that.”“Ok, I need to work. See ya’ later, Bucket!” she yells and flies off.After a couple of minutes, Michael and Applejack finished their work. “So, now I’m going to Twilight and read some of her books. I need some knowledge about the Equestrian History.” he says, “But at first, where I can get a shower? I haven’t cleaned myself for six days!” - “Ya’ can jus’ auer’ if ya’ want.”“Thanks...”Ponyville Library, a hour later Michael sits on a couch, several books are lying on the floor next to his feets. Twilight asks questions about Alma, and Michael answeres them, while he reads a book about the princesses. She wants to get more information about Alma, and she wants to send this informations to Princess Celestia... then the princesses can figure out how to destroy/kill/banish/calm down/whatever Alma... “1000 fucking years?! Princess Luna was banished on the moon for 1000 years? Oh my fucking god! Ooops... sorry!” he exclaims. “Yes, and we will do the same on Alma if she tries to hurt somepony again” says Twilight, “And why the hay are you so upset of 1000 years banishment? Okay, 1000 years banishment are a hard penalty, but what else was Princess Celestia supposed to do, as her sister changed to Nightmare Moon?” - “If I were Princess Celestia, I would throw Nightmare Moon in a psychatry for one year... and I’m so surprised, because this 1000 years didn’t broke her sanity. Besides this, you CAN’T contain or banish Alma...” says Michael.“What do you mean with that? Why we can’t contain Alma?” - “Because if you or somepony else do that, Alma’s soul separates from her body and she would do the same thing like before containment. She’s a incarnated ghost.” Twilight gasps at this. “And why is she so aggressive?” - “I don’t know... but one is sure: Wherever Alma appears, in a radius of 30 kilometres parananormal activites are occuring. Like monsters in the floor, hallucinations, dangerous specters and more... we must inform your major about that!”“Already done, we must at least send a letter to Princess Celes...” she is interrupted by a loud knocking at the door.“SPIIKEE!! There’s someone on the door” she yells, but there is no need for opening the door anymore, because the pony, who knocked on the door, bursts the door open and yells “THEY’RE COMING!!! THE DIAMOND DOGS ARE COMING!!!” “... what are Diamond Dogs?” asks Michael counfused. “You will know this if you see one.” yells Twilight, as she rushes from her couch. “One last question: Are they dangerous?” - “Yes!” Within an instant, he leapt up from the couch, too, and runs through ponyville. As he runs through the marketplace, heading for Sweet Apple Acres, he sees some strange creatures. They’re looking like dogs, but they are bigger, walking on two legs and wearing clothes. At Sweet Apple Acres, he can see a group of 6 muscular Diamond Dogs approaching the farm...****-Music (Please open a new Tab)- “We are making a big booty again today! These stupid ponies are so weak and stupid!” roars one of the Diamond Dogs, holding a big sack in his paws.“Ya’ ar’ stealin’ nothin’ today!” yells a mare behind them, holding a rope between her theeth. The DD’s are turning around and yelling “Ah... our good, old friend Applejack. Today, you are willing to give us your savings and 600 apples!” - “And wa’ Ah’ should do thad’?” - “If you refuse, we will KILL you!” with this words, the leader of the DD’s drews out a crossbow and aims at Applejack. She looks terrified, then she drops the rope and says “Okay, ya’ won... ju-just wait here!” and turns around to go inside her house... “You will not give your savings these bastards!” yells Michael behind them. All of them are turning around. Michael stands there, with his body vest, fully loaded AR in his hands, pistol in his holster and shotgun on his back. He let the sniper at the barn. The leader of the DD’s gasps in surprise, then he laughs and roars “You bald monkey are trying to stop us? Go back to your jungle where you belong, before we are ripping your body apart!” - “No, just be a good doggy and go back where you came and nobody gets hurt or killed! This is my first and last warning!” he says calmly. “Mishel’? Whad’ the hay’ are ya’ thinkin’?” yells Applejack. She doesn’t understand why he brings himself in such a dangerous situation. “I’m trying to settle this whole thing down.” he says.        The leader laughs “Oh, this is your pet? I’m sorry, Applecrap! But I know a better place for him... in our stomaches! Harharhar” Michael looks in the face of the leader, then in the face of Applejack, then he asks “He annoys me... can I get the authorization to kill him on your ground?”Applejack nods. The leader hears this, points his paw to the dog next to him and says “YOU!!! Rip Applecrap’s pet apart! After that you can kill Applecrap and her family!”The Diamond Dog pounces at Michael. But before the dog pins him down, he meets Michael’s feet in mid-air. A loud knock from the neck of the dog occurs and the dog is send through the air. Michael roundhousekicked the dog. The dog falls to the ground and lays there, unmoving...“Applejack! Go in your house and secure your family! This will take a while!” Michael yells. Applejack nods and rushes to her house and locks all doors.“You will regret this.” the leader says, then he says to his minions “Go and find a way into the house. And kill these ponies!”  His minions are finding the easiest way into the house... through the windows...“It’s now you and me, while my min-...” he never finishes the sentence.        *POW!!!*(Please stop music here and open this in new tab) His right half of his head explodes, brain-mass scattered on the ground. The leader falls on his knees, then to the side on the ground.Michael sprints immidiately after that to the house and jumps through a window.He soon finds the first dog in the kitchen. The dog tries to bite him in the leg. A short burst of his AR makes a short process with it. Michael runs through the hallway of the house, as suddenly another dog jumps out from a room and Michael is pinned down by this dog. His AR is knocked away. His attacker manages to bite him once in his arm. Michael let out a short yell of pain, then he punches the dog in the snout. The dog jumps away, it’s snout is bleeding, then it’s stand up. Michael stand’s up, too, and draw out his shotgun. The dog wipes it’s blood from snout, then it charges in rage at Michael... he squeezes the trigger of his weapon, as the dog is just inches from him away...        *BOSH* *SPLAT!!!*

A shower of blood, guts and bones occurs. The body of the dog is dismembered by the shrapnels of Michael’s shotgun. There is nothing left of the dog, just a big red stain of blood and some gibs...

“AAAAAAH. IT GOT ME!!!"Michael turns around, the scream comes from a room. But it sounded male. He bursts through the door, just to see a wounded Big Macintos, who is attacked by the last diamond dog. The diamond dog bites him in the right hindleg and shakes his head wildly."AAAAAAH! PLEASE HELP ME!!!" Michael Becket squeezes the trigger of his shotgun again. The diamond dog makes a loud whine, then it doesn't move anymore...Big Macintosh  grinds his theeth in pain. His right hindleg has several biting marks and is blooding."We must get you immidiately to the Hospital, Big Mac. But where's Appleja..." Michael is interrupted by an screeching noise. A door in the floor opens and Applejack, Applebloom and Granny Smith are stepping out. They were hiding in a secret room, while Big Mac tried to hide the handle of the door with something and bring himself in safety, but he was surprised by the diamond dog.(Stop Music Here)"Brother!" yells Applejack and nuzzled her brother."I'm fine." he mutters, but Michael says "No, you aren't fine. As I said, we must get you to the hospital, before your wound gets infected."Ponyville Hospital The ponies in the town managed to strike back at the diamond dogs- with minimal casualties.Nurse Redheat looks at Big Macs wound, than at Michael's wound. She says "Well, I can sterilize and bandage your wound, Mr. Becket, but..." ,she turns to Big Macintosh, "...your wound is quite big. We need to observe it for a few days." Big Mac let out a loud groan and falls on his bed. Michael sits up from his chair and says "I'm sorry, dude. But you were quite good at protecting your family." Big Mac just smiles at him...Michael steps out of the room and meets Applejack and Applebloom in the waiting room. They surrounding him "Thanks, Mishel'. Thanks a lot. Ya' savd' as' and auer' littl' farm. But' hows' goin' Big Mac?" - "He will need to stay a while here, but otherwise he's okay..." says Michael. "Oh thank Celestia", sighs Applejack, "Okay, Sugarcube, let's clean tad' mess in auer' house up, then we are goin' to Twilight!"Ponyville Library, two hours later As they stepping in the Library, the rest of the mane six are already there. "So, what was happening on the farm?" asks Twilight. Michael answeres "Applejack's existence was threatened by some diamond dogs, but I solved the problem... did the princesses wrote something?" - "Yes, that's the reason why I called you all. Shortly after Michael leaved the library, Spike received a letter from the princesses. They wrote that they didn't encountered Alma or something paranormal again...""Well, that's is her tactic!" mutters Michael."Tactic? What do you mean with tactic?" asks Twilight."Well, she makes at first panic, than she makes a pause, so that everyone thinks, that she isn't here or there anymore... and with all sudden, she strikes back again." explains Michael, "and nobody will know WHERE she will start.""That is... not good" mutters Twilight. Pinkie Pie just starts to bounce around and says "If Alma comes here, I will throw a party for her, too!" - "No, Pinkie." - "What.... do you don't like my parties?" she asks, mane deflated, pure sadness in her voice."Wait, do you didn't tell her about Alma?" asks Michael."No, we haven't yet." is the response from Rarity."Then tell her, dammit!"With that, Twilight starts to explain to Pinkie about Alma. After 10 minutes she's done and Pinkies mane goes back to her normal form "Aaah, now I understand!"Michael says "Please, do not forget. If you encounter her, run away fast as you can! Understand?" - "Okie dokie lokie!" she says smiling. Everypony and human are hoping that this is not the silence before the storm...Ponyville Hospital, Later in the afternoon "GET A DOCTOR OVER HERE IMMIDIATELY!", shouts Nurse Redheat, "PATIENT 113 HAS A HEAVY PANIC ATTACK!" With that, Doctor Hooves gallops through the Corridors, holding a syringe in his mouth. As he bursts through the door, Nurse Redheat exclaims "No need for this now. He calmed herself down, but he's awake. Maybe we could ask him what was happening." - "Hmm okay!" the Doctor puts the syringe on a table and walks over to the patient. Then he asks "We are here and nopony can hurt you. If you want, you can tell us what happened."The patient looks into the eyes of Nurse Redheat and Doctor Whooves, then he takes a deep breath and says "I hop' ah' will not get thrown inda' psychatry. So, now I'm starting. Ah' was sleepin' as Ah' heard somethin'. I wakd' up and openet' ma' eys' but Ah' couldn't see somepony. Suddenli', the light went off fo' a feuw' seconds', Ah swea' Ah' heard somepony whisperin', then the lights are turned back on and then... then...""What was then? Please tell us." says Whooves calmly."Then it was ove' ther'!", he points with his hoof to the cupboard, "It was sitting ther', and spinned violently with his faceles' head! But that wos 'not the scary part, suddenli' the light went off and on again. An'... An' my.bed was surround' by them! Ah' saw three crawlin' around the ceilin'! And evry' of them spinned with their head! Then Ah' screamed and you showed up!"Doctor Whooves and Nurse Redheat are stunned. Maybe the disinfectants have too much alcohol in it."Ah. That was just a side effect of the disinfectant we used on your injured leg. It was just an illusion!" explains the doctor."Whoah. Then Ah'm cool with it. Mane, ya' hav' som'.pretty stron' stuff her'!" he laughs. The doctor and the nurse are smiling. Then they are trotting away from the bed."Good Nit'!" the patient says."Good Night, Mr. Macintosh!"  says the nurse, still smiling, tur and closes the door. The patient turns to his side and closes his eyes, trying to get some sleep.In one thing the Doctor was wrong. The desinfectant has much alcohol in it, that's correct. But this wasn't an illusion...
