Her whole body hurts. She tries to open her eyes but she couldn’t. Then she tries to move to her side, but her body doesn’t want to react... “She wakes up, my sister. Look!” Twilight knows that voice. It’s Princess Luna. She hears approaching hoofstep sounds. “Please rest, Twilight... oh no... I feel so sorry for you...” she hears the shaky voice of Princess Celestia. Twilight tries to remember what happened. Within a split of a second, she remembers... After the shake, the chariot fell down from the sky like a stone. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, the pegasi Royal Guards and Black Needler could save themselves from falling down, but they couldn’t save the ponies who can’t fly. Twilight finally managed to open her eyes. She looks around. The walls and the ceilings has white tiles on it. She is lying in a bed, a thin hosepipe sticks in her left foreleg. In the bed next to her left lies Applejack, to her right is Rarity. Pinkie Pie lies in a bed in the other side of the room. Everyone has a hosepipe in their left foreleg. Then she looks to the princesses who are looking back with tearfilled eyes to her. Princess Celestia says “I’m so sorry, I shouldn’t let you defeat Alma alone...” “It’s not able to defeat her...,” mutters Twilight, “That’s why we were on the way back to Canterlot... before the chariot crashed...” “...that can’t be...,” mutters Celestia. Princess Luna can’t hold her question back “What is with Michael and Shining?” The memories of Michael are flowing back in Twilight’s brain. She hears his last words in her head... GET THE FUCK OUT!!! He tried to save their lives, even when he loses his own... with success. The mane six are alive, but Michael is dead. And Shining was killed without mercy by Alma. "Where are the others?" asks Twilight, trying to change the subject. Celestia takes a deep breath and says "They are in Ponyville, waiting for you. You all will leave the Hospital tomorrow." Twilight’s eyes are watering up. The princesses are approaching and embrace her. “Please, can I read your mind? So you don’t have to tell us what happened back in the old ruins” says Celestia. She knows that the memories might be disturbing and not suitable for her, but she want to knows the details... she moves her horn down to Twilight’s horn. FLASH The memories are flowing through the horn of Celestia. Her eyes are going wide... she moves her horn away from Twilight’s. “Michael... Shining...” mutters Celestia. She sits down on her haunches, to digest the memories. After a while, Celestia says "We are going back to our duties... Please sleep, my student!". Her voice shivers a little. Twilight nods and closes her eyes, to get some rest. Everfree Forest The forest is a place full of 'wild magic' (paranormal activities), strange creatures and strange plants. The wind whistles quietly through the branches of the tree. This silence is interrupted by a loud hissing sound. It comes from a clearing. The clearing is somewhere deep in the forest and several miles away from the ex-old-ruins. A little white orb hovers in the middle of the clearing, 1.50 metres above the grounds. The orb increases in size until it's three metres wide. Some flashes are surrounding the orb, which is a portal now. Suddenly, three bipedal creatures are emerging out from the portal. They are holding metallic tools in their hands and they are looking around. After a while, one of them moves his left hand to his left ear and says "Commander? Here's Echo 13. Area secured. We're in a forest. We may proceed with the test subject!" Four more mens are emerging out from the portal. They are holding a great cage. But instead of grids, the cage has thick glass. Inside the cage stands a man. He has almost shoulder length black hair, and a small beard around his mouth area. He wears green pants and a brown pullover. The pullover has a sign on every arm: 'P1'. On his waist are pockets and a holster for a pistol, but it's empty. The men are putting the cage on the ground and walking back through the portal. Some seconds passed and they are coming back through the portal, each of them holds a large box. On every box is a sign: WARNING!FIREARMS AND EXPLOSIVES!DO NOT THROW! The men are putting the boxes on the ground. One man asks "Hey Chris, what are we doing next?" "The commander says that we should search the area for any lifeforms and taking notes of them," says Chris. "And what is with this guy?" asks the man, which name is Miller, pointing at the man in the glasscage. "Pff... I don't know. The commander says that we should wait for further oders," shrugs Chris. The man in the cage looks up to Chris, anger in his face. Chris just holds his middle finger up to him... Suddenly, one of the armed men shouts "Unknown lifeform detected. Maybe hostile!" They all are turning their heads and spots a creature which they never saw before. It has the body of a lion, the wings of a bat and the tail of a scorpion. A Manticore. The men are unlocking their Briggs SMG's and aiming at the manticore. The manticore growls in response. It's not hungry or so, but the men are in his territory. With instant, the manticore charges up to them. Chris shouts "SUPPRESSIVE FIRE! FALL BACK THROUGH THE PORTAL!" and shoots a burst from his SMG at the manticore. The manticore screams in pain and anger, but it keeps running. All men are turning around and jumping through the portal, with the exception of Chris, who still fires at the manticore. The bullets are too weak to come to the vital spots of the manticore. Suddenly, the portal closes. Chris screams in fear as the manticore pounces at him. He is pinned down by the manticore. The manticore opens his big maw... and bites the head of Chris. His skull just explodes like a ballon, blood flows out from his headless throat. The manticore looks at it's work, jumps from the headless corpse and turns around. He spots the man in the glasscage. This would be a easy target for the manticore and it pounces at the cage. The man inside grunts in pain as his head meet the glass behind him in a unpleasant way. "Wait until I'm outside!" growls the man. The manticore seems to understand his words -it grins- and it smashed the glass with the spike of his scorpion tail. The glass shatters and the manticore tries to pull it's head through the hole... until the man inside the cage kicks him hardly at it's snout. A loud *CRACK* occurs and the manticore jumps back in surprise. The man smashes the rest of the glass with his fist and climbs out from the cage, bloodlust in his eyes "Now the things are going to be real dirty!" He rushes to the corpse of Chris and open the pockets to find a very special tool. A sharp combat knife. He turns around to the manticore, which stands up and pounces again at him... The man stepped to the side and spots a weak place on the manticore... (Author's note: No, not the weak place!) He lungs out with the knife and slices the throat of the manticore. The cut in the manticore's throat is deep and long and the manicore falls to the ground and spasmed on the ground. After some minutes, the manticore went limp... The man just turns around and heads for one of the boxes. He opens one and for a short moment a grin appears on his face. Taking out a Armacham G3A3 Assault Rifle, a EL-10 CAS shotgun and a pistol, some spare ammo, he stands up and looks around. He can see mountains. One thing confuses him: A castle, which is on one of the mountains. "So that means this world is populated by intelligence lifeforms," mutters the man. He realizes that the forest is deep. And maybe there are more dangerous lifeforms... he starts walking, with the Shotgun in stroke, into the dark forest... After 30 minutes of walking, he could hear children screams. “I know that I will meet someone sooner or later... who threaten someone other...” says the man and starts to sprint to the direction of the screams. He steps out from the forest and he spots something unfamiliar. Three little horses...no... ponies (?) are running away from a crowd of wooden wolves...? The first one has orange fur, wings, and a violet mane. The second one has yellow fur and red mane, with a pink ribbon in it. And the last one has a white fur, a horn and violet-coloured mane. And the fillies are screaming “AAH, LET US ALIVE!!!” “... whatever... they need help,” mutters the man to himself. From the tone in their voices he realizes that they are very young. He sprints up to the wooden wolves and follows them, like he hunts the fillies, too. The fillies are spotting the man and they are screaming more. Five very loud thunderclaps are occuring. The fillies are stumbling in shock and face-landing on the ground. They expect to be getting killed by the wolves or the bipedal creature... or both. But then the creature speaks, pointing a finger at them “The forest is too dangerous for little things like you!” The fillies are looking around and a loud gasp escape from their mouths. Their eyes are confronted with the sight of mangled wolf bodies. Then they are looking back to the man, who saved their lives. He wears a total neutral expression in his face. “But at first, who and what are you?” asks the man. The fillies are standing up. They feel not sure to the man... “I’m Scootaloo!” says the pegasus. “I’m Sweete Belle!” says the unicorn. “Ahm’ Applebloom!” says the ‘normal’ pony. “And we are the cutie mark crusaders!” they are yelling in one unison. “Okay, and what are you?” asks the man, raising an eyebrow. Scootaloo says “We’re ponies. And what are you?” Before the man can answere her question, Applebloom says “Ah’ know what his spesies” is calld’. He is a hyooman!” The man is slightly confused “How do you know it?” Applebloom says smiling “A week ago, another human arrived in auer’ world. His name is Michael Becket. Ah heard nothin’ from him sienc' he leavs’ our farm.. ba’ the way’, whad’ is yar' name?” The man says “Uhm... my name is not a normal one...” Sweete Belle says “Well, Michael Becket isn’t a normal name to us... so just say, what is your name?” “Point Man...” Earth, Fairport, Armacham Underground Facilities "Get the Replica Soldiers ready," commands Genevieve Aristide, "And make sure that they are carrying the big calibers!" She stands in Daniel's office, in front of his desk. Enginer Daniel asks "I'll do that, but why the replicas?" "From the report I got from Miller, the new world is not very peaceful and the first team forgot 'P1' back there... And don't forget some Blackhawk Helicopters and APC's. The teleporter seems to be able to make stable portals. Maybe strong enough to move our base there," says Genevieve. He smirks a little "Ma'am you're exaggatering a little..." She says "I know, I'm exaggatering where I can," and she walks out from Daniel's office.

Before Michael can respond her question, Point Man says "Yes, in front of you stands one of Alma's sons. Any questions?" and looks over to the ponies. "Hol' on! Ya' hav' a brother?" ask Applejack shocked. "Yes, his name is Paxton Fettel. I don't know why he got a proper name..." he says. "How is he?" asks Rarity. "My brother? He is a insane, psychopathic cannibal, who killed and eat every human who was involved in Project Origin. What the Project was for... pfff I don't know!" says Point Man. That shocks Twilight even more "I hope that he will never take a step in our world..." Point Man says "He? My brother? He is not able to do this because I pulled a bullet into his head!" Everypony gasps on shock "Wait! Ya'... killed yar' own brother?" asks Applejack shocked. "Yes. I got the chance to kill him, so I used the chance. Hell, I was so glad that he finally stopped talking!" he says in tone as if it were the most normal thing in the world. "How dare you to say it like it is normal?" snarls Rarity. Point Man gives her a neutral glare and says "Because I'm Alma's son, I have a very special ability, called Slow-mo and..." he is suddenly interrupted by Twilight "Michael has this ability, too!" Point Man looks over to Michael, who says "After a big explosion, I gained this ability through a surgery." Point Man thinks for moment then he says "My ability is congenital. Because of this, I'm lacking human emotions. Some people are saying that I'm a unstoppable killing machine. And they are right... And the explosion you talked about was caused by me, by the way." Michael's face changes to total rage. He can't believe what he just hears. "HOW DARE YOU TO NUKE A WHOLE CITY!?!? YOU KILLED SO MANY PEOPLE!!!!" shouts Michael. Point Man shouts back "I HAD TO DO IT! AND IT WASN'T A NUKE! I SHOOT THAT FUCKING ORIGIN FACILITY REACTOR! I DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT WILL CAUSE SUCH A LARGE DESTRUCTION!" Michael shouts back “SHOOTING A REACTOR IS ALWAYS A BAD IDEA!!! AND YOUR FUCKING MOTHER TRIED TO RAPE ME!" Point Man seems a bit surpried by this, then he teases "Well, that means my mother likes you..." Twilight feels that a fight is coming, so she holds them back via her telekinetic. They are struggling against her telekinetic grip, but after a while they are stopping. Pinkie Pie has already a idea in her mind “Come, let's eat some cupcakes. It will cheer you up!” Twilight looks to Michael and Point Man and says "If you two are start fighting again, I will cast a spell that will let you sleeping! Understand? Excuse yourself!" Twilight knows where her position is. Point Man and Michael are looking at Twilight, then to each other. Finally, Michael says "Sorry...". Point Man looks to the side and says "It's okay...". Twilight says, with a winning smile in her face "Was it so difficult?" and lets them free from her telekinetic grip. Pinkie Pie bounces up to them, brings two cupcakes out of nowhere and says smiling "Eat them, you sillys!" Michael takes one, says "Thanks" and bites in it. He starts to smile, like everyone who eats a cupcake made by Pinkie. Then she walks to Point Man and offers him the other one, too. He takes it, says flatly "Thanks" and bites in it. After a while he says "Uuuhm... tastes good..." and he sits down at the couch of the library. But Pinkie doesn't wait for a agreement for the good taste/quality of her cupcakes. She waits that Point Man starts to smile... 5 minutes passed and Point Man doesn't smile yet. Instead, he notices the staring of Pinkie and asks "Do I have something on my face?" Pinkie's mane deflates instantly and she whimpers "Do my cupcakes not make you... smile?" Point Man looks to her and says just one word "No." The other ponies are gasping. Applejack says "Wha' ya' cant just smile?" Point Man sighs and turns himself to them "Like I said, I lack emotions, so stop trying to make me smile, laughing, crying or whatever..." Pinkie walks over to Michael and nuzzled his side. She can't believe that her cupcakes doesn't make Point Man smiling. After a while, her mane goes back to it's normal form. Twilight wants to know more about Point Man and asks "Are there more familiy members?" Point Man looks over to her and says "Yes, I had a father and a aunt... my father was an asshole, but to my luck, he was killed by Alma. My aunt Alice Wade... even when I'm lacking emotions, I really wanted to know more about her. I think she was the only family member who wasn't insane..." Rarity asks "How she was? What happened to her?" "My lovely brother Paxton Fettel cannibalized her... and that was reason enough,why I shoot into his head," says Point Man, "You see, all familys are having their problems, but in our family the problems are special!" Twilight tries to change the subject and says "Tomorrow, we will travel to Canterlot and introduce you to the Princesses!" Point Man looks to her and asks "Canterlot? Princesses?" She rolls her eyes again and points with the hoof at the castle on the mountain, through the window. Point Man sees the castle and says "When I arrived here in this world, I saw this castle, too... I thinks it looks nice." Twilight says "Oh, we forgot to introduce you to Fluttershy! But please be gentle, she is a little bit shy..." A bit later and they are walking out from Ponyville to Fluttershy's cottage. Twilight walks ahead, behind her are Michael and Point Man. They both calmed down and exchanging their 'adventure stories'. Michael is surprised by the fact that Alma tried to kill Point Man, too. Their talking are interrupted by a approaching jet sound... "Seek cover!" shouts Michael and jumps behind a tree. Point Man just stays on the ground... (Author's Note: Point Man's use of 'Slow-mo' will be showed in this colour.) Slow-mo On Point Man turns around and grabs instantly the throat of Rainbow Dash with his right hand- not tight, but strong enough to fling her on the ground in usuage of her momentum. Then he pins RD down with his legs and holds his Combat Knife at her throat. Slow-mo Off Twilight witnessed the scene and yells "Don't hurt her. She's my friend!" Point Man looks to Twilight, then to Rainbow Dash. He says, while standing up and putting his knife back "If you do this again, I will take care that you will not be able to do this again." He looks to the other ponies and says "Sorry, but it was a reflex!" Rainbow Dash whimpers slightly at this, then she let out a annoyed grunt and says "Again a human, which has this stupid 'Slow-mo' ability!" Twilight rolls her eyes and "We are going now to Fluttershy. Do you want to come with us?" Rainbow Dash says "Yes of course! I missed Bucket!" and looks over to Michael, who just facepalms... They are just now some metres away from Fluttershy's cottage. Twilight gallops ahead and knocks at first at the door. The door opens and Fluttershy trots out "Oh... hello friends! It's nice from you that you visits me!" Twilight smiles and says "Well, I'm here to introduce you to Point Man. He's new here and..." "Point Man?" Fluttershy looks over to him, "EEP!" She hides her face behind her mane. Point Man just approaches and ducks down in front of her, to get to her eye-level. He says "Hello, my name is Point Man. I don't mean any harm to you or your friends. Can we come in your cottage?" Fluttershy nods and rushes into her house, followed by the rest. They all are sitting down on couches, while Fluttershy prepared for some tea. After a while, her animal friends are bringing trays with cups on it to the other ponies and humans. Then Fluttershy trots to the couch and sits herself down next to Point Man. He then looks in her face, but Fluttershy still hides behind her mane and mutters quietly "M-my name is Fluttersh..." Even with Point Man's lack of emotions, he can feel that she is a little bit frightened in his presence so he tries the best thing: He starts to pet Fluttershy's mane. She squeaks in surprise, but then she makes 'Mmmmh'. She enjoyed his stroking. After a while Point Man looks over to the other ponies, who jaws drops. Michael just watches the scene. Rainbow Dash nuzzled his side. She misses him so bad... Michael doesn't misses her. Rarity is surprised and says to Point Man "Wow Darling, I've never think that you will doing this..." Point Man responses "Even when I'm a unstoppable... you know what... , I'm not a monster..." Michael looks with surprise at Point Man and grabs a bottle from the desk, to drink from it. After he take some sips, Pinkie Pie says “Er... Michael, you are drinking Hot Sauce!” Michael looks with surprise at the bottle. He just shrugs and drinks the bottle empty. The jaws of each pony drops. Michael says “Mmmhh, spicy and hearty...” Later... It's evening now and Twilight decided to go back to her library. Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy are at their home. Spike writes a letter to the Princesses... Dear Princess Celestia, I have very good news for you. Another human arrived at our world. His name is Point Man. This might confuse you, but he's Alma's son. Don't worry, he means absolutely no harm to us. In fact, he doesn't like his own mother and she tried to kill him, too. By the way, Michael Becket is alive and back at my library. We will come to your castle tomorrow and introduce you him. Yours, Twilight Sparkle "Send it now," says Twilight. Spike takes a deep breath and burns the letter with his fire. The ash flies through a open window... Point Man watches in awe at this. Twilight turns to them and says "Now we should get some sleep and..." but she is interrupted by a *PING!*. Princess Celestia stands in Twilight's library, with wide eyes. She teleported herself the whole way from Canterlot to Ponyville. She opens her mouth but nothing comes out... she can't believe her eyes that Michael sits in front of her. Point Man examines her and thinks A winged unicorn or a horned pegasus? , then he leans to Michael and asks quietly "From which unethical laboratory did she escaped?" Michael moves his both hands to his face, blocking his mouth and nose. He face went red but he doesn't burst out in laughter. After a while, he moves his hands away from his face and takes some breaths. Point Man's face remains almost neutral. The left edge of his mouth moves a little up. Michael looks over to the princess and says smiling "Hi, Tia!" Instantly, Celestia rushes up to him and hugs him with her wings. "Whoah!" exclaims Michael. Point Man just watchs the scene and scratches his head. Princess Celestia unwraps her wings from Michael and says "I thougth you will never come back..." He responses "I thougth that, too... now I'm here." He is totally surprised by her reaction. Celestia smiles to him, then she looks to Point Man, who wears again a totally neutral expression. "Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you Point Man!" then she makes a more serious expression "Do not dare to hurt any of my ponies!" Point Man just says "Don't worry, I don't have any of the abilities of my insane mother... just the Slow-mo ability and a big lack of emotions. And don’t think I’m proud of being Alma’s son..." Princess Celestia looks confused “... no emotions? Well, we can talk about that tomorrow! Goodbye all!” She smiles to Michael, who salutes to her. *PING!* She teleports herself back to her castle. Michael doesn’t know what happened. Twilight giggles and says “It looks like she has something for you!” He says “WHAT? Oh great...” Everfree Forest Flies are flying around a headless, humanoid corpse. This corpse was Chris once before, but the very first day of testing the teleporter went wrong. A manticore attacks the group of soldiers. Only Chris didn’t manage to get through the portal... The ground starts to shake and a white orb hovers at the same place like the orb one day before. The orb grows in size. But this time it is much larger than before, around 30 metres this time. A great vehicle emerges from the orb, along with three other vehicles. 2 APC’s, a large transporter, which carries about 100 soldiers and a Black Hawk Helicopter. Inside each APC are eight soldiers. Each soldier in the vehicles is a Replica Soldier. But they are not activated yet... six little drones are detaching themselves from the transporter and flying to the direction of Canterlot. Ponyville, Twilight’s library “Michael! Point Man! Wake up! We must go to the trainstation!” yells Twilight. Point Man, who slept in the basement, looks at his watch and groans “It’s just 900!” As Twilight hears this she asks puzzled “900? It’s 9 o’clock!” Michael, who slept on the couch, says “He said that, but in other words!” Then they are making breakfast. Twilight says to Point Man, that she already know about what humans eat, so there is no meat in this breakfast. The closest thing to meat would be eggs. Point Man just shrugs and says “I have to deal with that.” After the breakfast, they are going out to the trainstation of Ponyville. Rainbow Dash tries again to tackle one of them down, but a death glare of Point Man and a ‘I-will-watch-you’-gesture of Michael changes her mind and she flies away as fast as she can. Canterlot, Princess Celestia’s Castle “Is that true sister? Michael is still alive?” asks Princess Luna. She sits next to her sister, on a smaller throne. Celestia sits on the big throne, smiling to her “Yes, he’s alive. I saw it by myself.” A knock on the doors occurs. The Royal Guards in the throne hall are opening the doors and Twilight Sparkle, Michael Becket and Point Man are going through the door. Instantly as Princess Luna sees Michael, she literally beams to him and stands in front of him. She examines him with big eyes, unmoving. Michael approaches her and... waves his hands in front of her face “Hello? Equestria to Luna, please report!” Princess Celestia chuckles and says “My sister is a little bit surprised by your comeback. Now to you, Point Man. If you are a soldier, what’s your position?” Point Man approaches Celestia a bit and says “I’m a Former Special Force Operative and, like my name says, point man of the first F.E.A.R. team.” Princess Celestia raises and eyebrow “F.E.A.R.?” He continues “F.E.A.R. stands for First Encounter Assault Recon. They are consisting of Special Force Operatives and they are experts for paranormal activities and supernatural threats, like psionics. A good example for a psionic is my mother... or all ponies who can perform telekinetic. But we are responsible for Special Operations, like rescuing hostages or eliminating Replica Soldiers, too." Princess Luna wakes up from her staring at Michael and she asks “Replica Soldiers?” Michael takes the point “Replica Soldiers are...uhm... just imagine you would copy Twilight Sparkle thousand times. These replicas are living just for doing field duty in war or other military actions. And they can just do their work with a psychic commander. This commander gives them orders via a telephatic link. Without a psychic commander they are useless..." Princess Celestia seems a little bit shocked by this... then she asks Point Man “Yesterday, you said that you have no emotions. Is this correct?” “Yes, that’s correct. For example, I could kill Michael, no offense, and I can show no signs of regret,” says Point Man. The eyes of the princesses are widening. Suddenly, Michael catch a glimpse in the edge of his eyes. It comes from the windows. Michael recognizes instantly what moves behind the glass... he spins around, draws out his AR and shouts “UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE!!!” The ponies are jumping in shock. Point Man draws out his Armacham G3A3 AR and aims at the windows... *CLIRR* All windows are bursting and six UAV’s are hovering into the hall. They are flying drones and they have three ‘arms’, coming out from the centre of the drone. They are equipped with a single, rapid firing laser. And they are using now them... *ZAP* One laser hits Celestia at her left foreleg. She screams in pain. Michael shoots immidiately at the UAV. It bursts in a blue explosion. *BOOM* Point Man shoots the other UAV’s. *BOOM* *BOOM *BOOM* An UAV hovers to Michael from behind. Point Man shoots at it, but he realizes too late that the UAV is too near at Michael... The explosion throws Michael from his feet and it knocks him unconscious... *SLAP* Point Man slaps Michael in his face. His eyes are opening and he looks around. He lies on his back on the floor. Point Man stands over Michael, while a worried Princess Celestia lookd down to him. Princess Luna stands next to a panting Twilight, trying to calm her down. Point Man asks “Sorry for that... are you okay?” Michael face changes to anger and he shows Point Man his middle finger. Point Man groans and says “Yes, he’s fine!” and he helps Michael to get his on his feet. Remembering the attack on Celestia, Michael says “Tia, are you okay?” To his surprise, her leg is healed up. She says “After Point Man destroyed the last... thing... my sister used her telekinetic to heal up my injury... But thanks that you tried to help.” Michael can see her blush, then he says “Well, that things were built by Armacham... and they know about you now. They know now that this world is full with psionics, and they will probably ‘use’ unicorns... or even alicorns for they own...” Princess Celestia asks worried “What that means?” Michael says “As Paxton Fettel were killed, Armacham needed a new psychic commander. They got the crazy idea to enhance the telepathic abilitys from normal humans. The results were... disturbing. The subjects changed their personalitys. They acted not anymore like humans..." He starts to explain what he experienced in the hospital on earth... Michael walks through a hallway in the hospital. He walks in a room, that looks like a audience room. There are windows and Michael can see through them. Behind the glasses is the operation room, where he got his surgery. A window is bursted. The hole is big enough that he can jump through it. But as he approaches the hole... his head starts to hurt and the rooms comes alive. He sees himself on the table. The doctors are burrowing their hands through his open stomach. His guts are rolling to the ground. Alma appears near his head and she approaches him. He can hear himself screaming. Suddenly, the hallucination stops and a human-like things grabs him and pulls him through the hole. He falls on his back and he let out a grunt of pain. The human-like thing crawls on the wall and looks to Michael. His face is bandaged, just a eye sticks out through the bands. It wears trousers and his skins has several bleeding cuts. A abomination. It grunts and crawls out of Michaels field of view. He stands up. The room is stained with blood. But then he sees something unfamiliar. There are words. Everywhere, written with blood. The words are ‘Can He See?’. Suddenly, a abomination jumps at him. Michael can barely keeps on his feets. He starts to punch in the face of the abomination. It screams in anger and jumps away from Michael... *BOSH!* *SHZIK!* Michael shoots the abomination with his combat shotgun. A empty, smoking shotgun-case falls to the ground. Another abomination crawls through a door to Michael. *BOSH!* *SHZIK!* The upper body half of the abomination is ripped apart from the shrapnels of his combat shotgun. He switches to his submachine gun and aims at the next abomination. He squeezes the trigger slightly and a fast rhytm of loud thunderclaps occurs. The next one is again no problem. After he finished off two other abominations, he walks to a door, which is blocked by a table. He kicks the table away, so that the door can be openen. Then he walks through the door, continuing his escape from this hospital filled with horror... **** “Oh... my...” whisper Celestia horrified. A single tear rolls down her cheek. Then she looks to Point Man and Michael and says “I don’t let Armacham doing this to my little ponies.. and to you two. Please, stay at the castle and protect us...” Michael says “Of course!” Point Man says flatly “Okay. I really want to kick Armacham’s ass!” Earth, Fairport, Armacham Underground Facilities “WHAT? Point Man and Michael Becket are working together with a fucking horse?” exclaims Daniel. He looks stunned at the computer screen and listens to the report of Replica Commander Echo-1. They established a video channel through the portal, so the Replica Commander doesn’t have to be in Daniel’s office. “Yes. The subjects are located in a castle, in a unknown town. It looks like the world is populated by intelligent equines creatures. I think their technology is not advanced like ours, Sir!” says the Replica Commander. Daniel leans back in his chair and thinks for a while. Then he says “You said that their technology is not advanced like ours, right?” “Yes, Sir!” “Then I want you to show them our technology... You know what I mean! Shoot when they shoot upon you. Minimize casualties. Do not shoot at unarmed creatures. And use the Black Hawk Helicopter! Take the horse thingy as a hostage and bring it here!" commands Daniel. “Yes! How many Soldiers should I take, Sir?” asks the commander. “That’s your decision, Commander.

It’s the alarm clock. He wakes up and pushes a button on his phone. Then he looks on the battery power. Still 100%. Michael is surprised. Maybe the teleportation increased the power of the battery. He stretches himself and steps out from his bed. Then he wears on his combat suit, takes his pistol and his auto-shotgun and walks out from his chamber. His duty as a Elite Royal Guard/Royal Task Force member starts early in the morning, at 6 o’clock. He walks through a corridor. To his surprise, Princess Luna walks through the corridor up to him and says “Good morning, Michael. You’re up so early?” “Yes, but I would ask you the same...” says Michael. Princess Luna chuckles and says “Well, I’m the Princess of the night and I’m responsible for watching over the sleeping ponies. Literally, I’m the guard of the night. And I’m heading now to my chamber, to sleep over the day.” Michael says “So that means, you rushes through the dreams of your subjects? And take care of the safety in the night?” “Yes!” “You’re stealing my job!” says Michael dramatically and points a finger at her. They both are laughing. “Do you want to lead me to my chamber?” asks Luna. “Yes.” They are walking side-by-side to her chamber. One of Luna’s female night guards, Midnight Blossom, stands next to the door, bows to Princess Luna and salutes to Michael. Princess Luna says to Midnight “Good, job, Midnight Blossom. Take free for the rest of the day!” “Thanks you very much, your highness!” says Midnight Blossom and bows again to Luna, “I wish you a very...” She never manages to finish her sentence. A black humanoid invisible thing falls from the ceiling on the back of Midnight Blossom. -Music (Please open a new Tab)- With one hand, it grabs the mane of Midnight Blossom, with the other hand it cuts through the throat of the night guard with one fast move of his arm. Detached on the arm is a razor-sharp long knife. The head of Midnight Blossom is instantly cutted off from her body. Just in this moment, the invisible thing becomes visible. A Replica Assassin. Blood splashes in the face of Luna. The Replica Assassin holds the head in his left hand, before it jumps at the wall, then jumps from the wall over Michael and Princess Luna and runs away from them. Michael spins around and shoots a load of shrapnels at the Assassin’s back. *BOSH!* But it doesn’t damage the assassin much. It stumbles a little but it keeps running and disappears around a corner. “Shit, we can’t let that thing running around...” says Michael, but then he realizes that Luna doesn’t response. He turns back to her... She still stands on the place, her pupils shrinks to the size of pinheads. She stares at the headless night guard body, which lies on the ground. Michael knows what comes and he covers his ears... “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!” Luna screams in shock. She doesn’t use her Royal Canterlot Voice, however but her scream is loud as the RCV. Then she jumps at Michael and wrapping her hooves around him. Her whole body is shivering. Michael realizes what she is doing, so she pulls her away from him and says “Not right now! The assassin could be everywhere and...” He is interrupted by Princess Celestia, who heard the scream in her chamber and she teleported herself to them. “What is going on?!” She gasps at the sight of the headless cadaver of Midnight Blossom, blood still spurting out from it’s open throat... “That was a Replica Assassin. I’m glad that Luna wasn’t his target...” mutters Michael. They are stepping into the room of Princess Luna. Suddenly, they all can hear a approaching flapping sound. Michael recognizes instantly what the source of the sound could be. The princesses are galloping up to Luna’s balcony and looking out. They are confronted by the sight of a black thing, which approaches the castle from the south. A Armacham Helicopter. But the princesses never saw one before. “Michael! What’s this?” says Princess Celestia worried. “That’s... a Helicopter! Shit! Princesses, the Replica Soldiers will attack the castle!” exclaims Michael. He activates his comlink and establishes connection to Point Man “Come in! We have a little problem here!” Point Man says “Yes, I know. A Helicopter! With sixteen Replica’s inside!” “Fuck!” yells Michael and starts to run to Point Man’s direction. After a while, he can hear three bursts of Point Man’s AR through the corridors of the castle. “What happened?” asks Michael. “That bitch of a Assassin tried to kill me... but I was faster,” says Point Man through his comlink. Suddenly, Michael can hear some windows bursting. He finds cover behind a corner and perks his head around the corner. Four Replica’s are lowering himselves down with ropes. “What are they doing?” Michael turns around his head fast and looks in the shocked faces of Princess Luna and Princess Celestia. They followed him. “What the fuck are you doing here? Hide somewhere!” whispers Michael. Princess Celestia opens her mouth to say something, but she is interrupted by a voice... “Squad, check that out!” commands one of the Replicas. -Music (Please open a new Tab)- Michael takes out a grenade, pulls the pin out and throws it to the group of Replica’s. As they are spotting the grenade, one of them shouts “Grenade! Take cover!”, all Replicas are jumping away from the grenade and lying on the ground, protecting their heads with their hands... *BASH!* “It comes from there!” exclaims a Replica. Michael leans outfrom his corner and shoots three loads of his shotgun. He hits a Replica, who shouts “I’m hit! I’m hit!”. “Suppressive fire!” Michael jumps back to his cover, before a bullet flies past his head. He hears the sonic boom it caused. Then a orchestra of thunderclaps occurs. The Replicas are shooting at Michael’s cover, but to no avail. The princesses are screaming in shock. Michael turns to them “Stop screaming and listen to me! Tia, bring me my AR! And Luna, you teleport yourself to your room and stay there!” Luna says “But... I...” “Stay! There! If you want, you can have my pistol to protect yourself. But stay in your room, dammit!” He says it in a commanding tone, like the princesses would say it. Celestia takes a deep breath, closes her eyes and starts to concentrate... *PING!* She disappears in a white flash. Michael unholsters his pistol, takes out some spare ammo and gives the objects to Luna. She takes them with her telekinetic and examines them. But before Michael can say something, she disappears in a blue flash. *PING!* “Oh great, and I didn’t told her how to use a pistol...” mutters Michael. *PING!* Princess Celestia appears in a white flash, holding Michael’s AR in her telekinetic grip. He takes and says “Thank you... now hide yourself somewhere! What are you waiting for? Leave!” Princess Celestia says “Okay, but please be careful... I don’t want to lose you... again.” *PING!* Michael activates his comlink and says "I need backup! I will finish the squad off, but there are maybe more!" Point Man says "Roger that. Over and out!" Then Michael turns around and jumps from his cover... Slow-mo On "Fuck!" yells one of the Replicas. Michael aims at him and shoots a burst from his AR into the the head of the Replica. He screams in pain and falls to the ground. Then Michael literally pumped 10 bullets into the next Replica. He moves to the next Replica and roundhousekicked him. He kills the last one by switching his weapon to his autoshottie and shoots three shrapnel loads... *SPLAT!* The upper body of the Replica is ripped apart. The organs are smashed by the shrapnels, the pieces are sticking on the wall. The head falls to the ground and rolls to the feets of Michael. Slow-mo Off Michael looks at the mess. Then he takes the weapons which are lying on the ground. At least he gets some spare ammo for his AR and a Combat Shotgun. Suddenly, Point Man shouts through his comlink "Fuck, there's a heavy! I repeat, a Heavy is inside the castle! With some sort of a new Penetrator, which fires hot flechettes!" “Where are you?” “In the corridor which leads to Princess Celestia's door. I think the Heavy tries to get in there! Aaah shit! *AR Burst*” comes from his comlink. Michael starts to run to Point Man’s direction. He runs around the corner, to spot the Heavy. Point Man is behind a table, several red glowing flechettes are piercing through the desk. Michael pulls the pin from a shock grenade and throws the grenade at the Heavy... *BASH!* *FIZZLE!* The Heavy falls on his knees, shivering over it’s whole body. Point Man and Michael are opening their fire. They are literally pumping magazines of bullets in it, because after a while, they have to reload. Suddenly, the Heavy, falls to the ground, unmoving. Dead. Michael sighs in relief, walks over to Celestia’s door and knocks at it “Tia? Are you in...” *PING!* “... there... *vomit*” Michael holds himself with his hands on his knees and vomits on the ground Celestia teleported him into her room, but she instantly regrets it as she sees that Michael can’t handle with teleportation “Oh, sorry Michael! I didn’t want to do that!” Michael stands straight and shoots a annoyed glare at Celestia. She rushes to him, trying to hug him as an act for excusing. But Michael dodges her ‘attack’ and says “No need for excusing, just never do that again!” “Okay” Again, the sound of the Armacham Helicoptes lures them to look out from a window. The Helipter hovers above the part of the castle, where the throne hall is. Eight Replica Soldiers are lowering themselves down with ropes and smashing the big windows. Then they are jumping through the open windows and disappearing in the hall... “That’s wonderful!” exclaims Michael and runs to the door, which is locked. Michael doesn’t have the time to ask Celestia to open the door, so he just shoots the lock with his combat shotgun... *BOSH!* *SHZIK!* “Sorry Tia! Take it from my wage!” exclaims Michael, opens the door and moves to Point Man, “Let’s go to the throne hall, there are more of them!” They both are running down the hallway, to the doors of the throne room. Princess Celestia follows them. As they are in front of the door, they are stopping, to listen through the doors to the Replicas which a re inside the hall. No sounds... (Stop Music Here and open this in a new Tab!) “What’s going on?” asks Michael and moves his hands to the handle of the door... Point Man takes some steps back and slightly bumps at Celestia. He has a very bad feeling. Michael opens the door and rushes in it. He gasps as he spots the scene... Celestia shrieks in horror and Point Man just finds cover at the corner of the doorway. Alma, in her children form, holds all Replicas and some Royal Guards at their throats with her telekinetic. They all are taken by surprise from her appearing. The Replicas and the Royal Guards are grunting in pain. Alma chuckles, she enjoys their struggling. With all sudden, every living being in the throne hall, with the exception of Michael, explodes in a bloody shower. *SPLATCH!!!* Guts, smashed organ pieces, shattered bones and blood are flying wildly through the hall, leaving thick, slimy red stains on the walls and throne. Then a explosion at the place where Alma stands occurs. Michael is hurled against a wall. “MICHAEL!!!” shrieks Celestia, but she doesn’t runs up to him. He falls from the wall to the ground, unmoving. Alma just chuckles again and bounces up to Michael, almost like Pinkie Pie, while purring out a random tune. Like she didn’t nothing... Just as she almost jumps on the unconscious Michael, she dissolves in thin dust.... (Stop Music Here!) *SLAP!* Again, Point Man slaps Michael in his face, to wake him up. Just as Michael opens his eyes, Point Man holds his hands up and shows him four fingers and asks “How many fingers do you see?” To Michael’s response, he shows Point Man again his middle finger. Point Man groans and says to Celestia, who stands at the other side of Michael “See? He’s fine!” Michael stands up and looks at the mess. The whole throne hall has a new color. Red. And it smells awful. Bloodstained bones and skulls are lying on the ground. A pony skeleton, the eyes are still in it’s skull, hangs over Celestia’s wet throne. A ripped human body lies against a wall, it’s guts are spilling over the ground. It’s just a gruesome sight. And Celestia can’t use her throne now for a while... “I think our lovely little girl is on rampage...” mutters Michael. Celestia let out a quiet sob. She worried about Michael a lot. And she developed feelings for him. Even when he’s a totally different species, she likes him more than... whatever. And they all are threatened everytime by Alma or by her apparitions. And Celestia is frightened about the thought of losing Michael. A long time ago, she was together with a Royal Guard. He cared about her, like Michael cares about her now. Not in the same way, but he makes feel Celestia safe. Her former lover was killed by a demonic creature. Even as his life bleeds out, he proved his love to her... But Michael is different. He protects her in a more aggressive way. He seems to doesn’t care about his own life. And that is the thing what makes Celestia frightened. Before she can tell her love to him, he might be gone... “Now we should go to Luna, to look after if she’s okay!” says Michael, turns around and walks past Princess Celestia, who stares at him. He notices her starin, but he doesn’t mind. Instead, he jogs up to Lunas room and opens the door. Celestia trots up behind him. *POW!* Michael stumbles a little and he moves his left hand to his chest. “LUNA? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” shouts Celestia. Luna shoots at Michael in shock. “...OH NO. I’M SO SORRY!!!” cries Luna and collaps on the ground, weeping. “Hey... don’t be worried! It didn’t harm me... but it hurts!” groans Michael. To his luck, his SK4 kevlar vest holds the bullet back. But a nasty blue stain is on his chest at the place where the bullet landed. He walks to Luna and takes away his pistol from her and says “You are not safe for using firearms!” Celestia let out a loud sigh, then she says “Luna, if you use a pistol again, I will banish you to the moon again. And Michael...,” she turns to him,”If you give my sister again a weapon, I will banish you to the moon, too!” Michael says “If you do this... I’ll die... but okay, I’ll not give Luna again a firearm! Sorry for this!” As Michael says “I’ll die”, she winced slightly at this. Then she says “Please... stay alive” I need you... she thinks... Earth, Fairport, Armacham Underground Facilities “What?!” shouts Genevieve, “The group didn’t manage to capture that freakin' horse? But how?” “Yes, the two subjects Michael Becket and P1 wiped out the whole group, Sir!” says Replica Commander Echo-1. Genevieve thinks for a while, then she says “Well, we will send them a ultimatum. If they don’t comply... please start Order-1337! You know what that means!” “Yes, Sir!” Chapter 5Interval 05- Confession DISCLAIMERI don't own My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and/or any of its included characters.

The throne hall is clean again, with the help of Princess Celestia's telekinetic they were able to clean the mess within a hour. "Yes...," says Michael. He and Point Man are in his room. Point Man examines the weapon storage of him and says "The particle weapon and the ASP Rifle are my most favourite weapons." "There are more of them in the Dark Signal APC," says Michael. Point Man says "Are you fucking kidding me? On this world is a APC?" "Long story...," says Michael. Suddenly, a knock on the door occurs. "Come in!" yells Michael. The door opens and Princess Luna steps in "Michael? My sister wants to speak with you. Now. She's in her room." Michael stands up and says "Okay, but about what she wants to speak?" "It's personal." Michael walks out from his chamber, through various hallway, to Princess Celestia's room. He knocks on the door and steps in "Hello, Tia! I'm here!" She sits on her bed on her haunches and smiles to him. "Hello, Micky. Yes, I want to tell you something...," she seems a little bit nervous, "Well, you did so much for us, espacially me. You saved us several times and you was there for us when we need you. Before I sended you with the mane six to the old ruins, I developed feelings for you... and I want to say that... that..." "Spit it out," says Michael. "... I love you," whispers Celestia and looks into Michael's dark grey eyes, "...and I hope you feel the same..." BAM. This answere slaps in the face of Michael like a melee attack from a Replica Soldier. He raises a eyebrow. Aww...shit... but there's a little problem... thinks Michael. He takes a deep breath and asks "Tia, can I sit next to you?" "Yes, of course!" she speaks in a joyful voice. Michael sits next to her and moves his hands together. Then he says "Tia, I respect your feelings and I can't blame you for that. But there's something I said days ago..." "Yes you said that you don't want to have special someponys... But I don't care!" says Celestia. "Mmmh... okay then I will say it right into your face," he turns his head to her face... and says it... "I don't love you," says Michael, "Of course I have feelings for you. But they are not for sure romantical. So sorry, Tia, if I had hurt your feelings." Celestia' face changes... "...Leave..." whispers Celestia sorrowful, "And take your friend with you... leave the royal guards, and leave the RTF... you are banished from Canterlot. And if you take a step in Canterlot..." Michael can't believe what he just hears "What? For only that I don't love you, you disband RTF and banish me from Canterlot?" "YES,YOU FOOL. LEAVE ME, LEAVE CANTERLOT, LEAVE RTF... LEAVE US!!!" yells Princess Celestia in usuage of the Royal Canterlot Voice (150 decibel, loud as a explosion 5 metres away). Michael doesn't even winces at the Royal Canterlot Voice. He just rubs his ears, because he hears a ringing in them. After the ringing is gone, he says "Really? Are you 100% percent sure about that? Because I'm not the changing-mind-type. I don't care about the consequences!" "YES!!!" Instantly, Michael claps his hands together while standing up and says "Good, closing time!" and rushes to the door. He opens it, walks through the doorway and closes the door behind him. Celestia can hear his steps in the hallway. Suddenly, she says "Oh... no... what I have done?" "Michael!" yells Celestia. No response... "Please come back...," sobs Celestia. She falls on her bed and weeps bitterly... The door to Michael's room opens. Point Man jumps from his chair in surprise. Michael rushes to his cupboard and takes all his weapons. Point Man walks up to the working Michael and asks "Er... what are you doing?" Michael says, while still taking his stuff "I'll tell you the short version... Celestia loves me, I don't love her, she's angry at me and we both should leave Canterlot... here, take the keys of the APC. It parks in the courtyard of the castle. Wait for me there." Michael throws the keys to Point Man, who catches the keys. But he is confused "Okay, I think I have to deal with being jobless... but why moving so fast?" Michael looks up to him and says "Because I really need a vacation..." Point Man nods and runs out from the room, to the APC in he courtyard. Michael continues putting his stuff in suitcases. Suddenly, he can hear hoovesteps behind him and he turns around. Princess Cadance. She opens her mouth to say something, but Michael says "Yeah, Yeah... she loves me, I don't love her, she wants to excuse herself... NO!" And with that, he grabs his suitcases and rushes past a dumbstruck Cadance. But before he leaves, he says "Bye Bye Cadance. And send greetings to Luna!" After 5 minutes, Michael arrives at the APC. Point Man opens the rear hatch for Michael. He takes a seat and straps himself on. The rear hatch closes and Point Man starts to drive through Canterlot. He asks "Okay... where's our destination?" "Ponyville... I LOVE this village..." Suddenly a *BUMP* on the top of the APC occurs. Michael can hear someone yelling "MICHAEL!!! I didn't mean that! Please come back!" It's Princess Celestia. Michael unstraps from his seat, opens the turret hatch and looks out. Celestia flies next to him, while the APC still drives. She yells over the sound of the APC "I don't care if you don't love me... just come back and protect us! We... I need you!" Michael groans and says "I must protect a crap! You threw me out and I will not change my mind about this! I don't need to be a Royal Guard or a RTF member to live! And Alma and Armacham is your problem now, princess!" Celestia winces noticeable at this. She never heard such words from him. Michael just closes the hatch. He sits back in his seat and straps himself on again. Then he burrows his face in his hands and sighs loudly... Ponyville, 5 hours later, Twilight's library Twilight stands in her kitchen, preparing a meal for the evening. It consists of various salads, tomatoes and daisy. Suddenly, the windows are starting to vibrate slightly. After some seconds it stops and a hydraulic sound occurs, followed by voices. Twilight trots out from her library and she walks around it. At first she let out a gasp of shock, then another one of joy. "Guys, you're back!" she bounces, like Pinkie Pie, around Michael and Point Man. They parked their APC several metres behind her library. Michael carries a combat shotgun on his back and Point Man has a pistol on in his holster. This weapons didn't fit in the suitcases or ammo boxes, because they are full. Michael says "I hope you don't mind that we parked our APC behind your library..." and he scratches his head. "Of course I don't mind. I'm so happy to see you again. How long you two will stay in Ponyville?" says Twilight. "Uhm... can we talk about that inside, if it's okay for you?" asks Michael. "Yes, of course! I will make some tea," says Twilight. They are sitting on chairs, everyone sips on their tea. Michael says "Like I told it to him," he points at Point Man, "I will say it to you. Okay, Celestia said that she loves me, I don't love her, she got angry at me and threw us out and now we are here!" Twilight spits out her tea in shock and exclaims "WHAT? Do you know what that means?" "Yes, she will force me to come back... but...," he takes out his shotgun and slides the pump of the shotgun back and forth (*SHZIK!*). A grin appears in his face. Twilight knows what he thinks and yells "MICHAEL! Get this idea out from your head!!!" Michael starts to laugh "Don't worry! Just kidding! Of course I wouldn't do this... although..." Twilight takes a deep breath and says "This wasn't funny..." *PING!* Twilight stands up from the couch, trots to the door and opens it with her telekinesis. Outside stands Princess Luna. She steps in the library. "Good Evening, Twilight Sparkle...," she spots Michael and Point Man, "... and a Good Evening to you two." "Oh... hello Luna. What brings you to Twilight?" asks Michael. "A ultimatum, sended right through a window in a rocketshell..." says Luna, "It's from the company Armacham and they wrote that Princess Celestia should work with them together. If she doesn't comply, then Armacham would do something very gruesome to her folk..." "And, did she comply?" asks Point Man. "Of course not. She would have to leave Canterlot. And then she asked about you two... especially you, Michael," she takes some steps to him, "Please, come back. She is not the Tia anymore I know..." "Nah... I don't think that I will come back so fast. I will think about that, just give me some time, okay?" says Michael. Princess Luna seems being satisfied with his answere and she says "Good, but pleace take the right decision... I will leave you now, Goodbye all!" "Goodbye!" they are saying in one unison. *PING* "I hate that sound..." mutters Michael. Twilight chuckles and says "So... where do you want to sleep? In the basement? On the couch?" "Nonono... our lovely APC has enough room for three and...," says Michael, but Twilight cuts him off "I INSIST that you two will sleep in my library!" "Hmpf... okay..." mutters Michael. Canterlot, Princess Celestias Castle "Why I didn't just accepted that he doesn't love me? Now he's gone. And it's all my fault!" cries Celestia. She sits on her throne. *PING!* Princess Luna appears in front of her and says "Good news, sister. He says that he will think about coming back, but he needs some time." Princess Celestia is satisfied with this answere and says "Okay... well, it's pretty late. Do you want to lead me to my room, sister?" "Of course!" Celestia stands up and walks to the door. As they are opening the door, Celestia looks to Luna, as she just dissolves in thin dust... -Music (Please open a new Tab)- Princess Celestia looks panicked around her and yells "LUNA?". The hallway is empty and she turns around to look back to her throne hall... she looks right into the mangled face of Shining Armor. Just as she screams in shock, the door to her throne hall slams shut, locking in the crippled Shining Armor in the throne hall. She collects herself together and tries to open the door with her telekinesis, but to no avail- the door doesn't budge. Taking some steps back, she looks to her left and right. Both ends of the hallway are blocked by a wall. Suddenly, these walls are moving through the hallway to Celestia. She screams in fear and imagine her garden in her head, to teleporting herself out. But nothing happens. She closes her eyes. Tears are falling down from her face. Just as the walls touching Celestia's body... FLASH She opens her eyes. Darkness. Pure darkness. With some fireplaces here and there. And her vision is blurred. Celestia starts to hyperventilate. Her panic is on the highest point she ever had in her life. And it becomes worser... *SCREEEECH!* Celestia spins around. Several legless creatures with yellow glowing eyes are emerging from the farthest point of the darkness around her. She tries to summon a telekinetic beam... her horn just emits some harmless sparkles. Then she tries to use the option to fly away. She clenches her back muscles... but she doesn't leap up in the air. She looks at her back. She expects wings... but to her horror, there are just two bleeding stubs on her back. No wings... The creatures are approaching at a alarming speed. She cries and screams at once. Never ever she is so frightened like before. Suddenly, the fireplace are moving up, the creatures are doing the same, too. She instantly feels what that means. She is falling. Her legs are waggling helpless in the air. She lose her crown while falling... in a large pool, filled with blood. She emerges at the surface and spits out the red life-juice. More panic overflows her senses. Then she vomits in the pool. She can't holds herself on the surface. Of course, Alicorns are able to swim. They are very good swimmer. But she's on the edge of fainting. And if she faints, she will drown in the pool. Suddenly, the height of the blood-surface seems to move down. The blood is draining away. To her luck. She lies on the ground of the pool, bloodstained and panting heavily. The tiles of the pool are changing their colour to black. Her vision isn't blurred anymore. She is back in darkness. After some seconds, her eyes are penetrated by a bright light. She stands up and looks around. She stands in a town. It can't be Canterlot or Ponyville, because the houses are pretty high and big. She knows that city, but she doesn't know the name right now. Turning around, she looks at the backs of ponies. MANY ponies. She stands behind a large crowd of ponies. They all are facing a large stage. On the stage stands a table and at the table stands a familiar blue alicorn. Her sister Luna. Luna yells something to the crowd of ponies but her voice is somehow muffled. And Celestia spots something, that send her a shiver right down her spine. All ponies don't have a face. Instead of eyes, facial expressions or something that builds up a face, their faces are just empty, like a empty sheet of paper. Luna's face is empty, too. Princess Celestia hears steps behind her and she turns around. "Take your positions!" Eight Replica Soldiers are approaching the crowd from behind. They are equipped with weapons, that even Celestia didn't saw before. At first it's a firearm. Big firearms. Celestia can see that the ammunition comes from a little box, which is attached on the underside of the weapon. The cartridges are coming out from the box and they are linked together like a chain. Their weapons are having just one muzzle, but it's a little bit longer than the muzzle of Michael's AR. Michael... "Wait for my signal!" "What are they doing?" thinks Celestia. With one snap in her brain, she knows what are they planning... they wouldn't... No... just SHOOT innocent ponies. "OPEN FIRE!!!" "NOOO!!!" screams Celestia... and finds herself in marketplace of ponyville. She is totally confused what just happened. Looking around, she doesn't find anything out of ordinarys... except that the ponies aren't having faces, too. Every pony is doing it's job, and it seems to be a normal, sunny day in the town. Celestia looks up to her castle which stills stands at the mountain. But it looks different. Before she recognizes what is different on her castle, the whole ground starts to shake. Everypony let out a muffled scream. On some places, the ground opens and some blue flashes are coming out. Then every window on every building bursts. Celestia falls on her haunches. *BLAASH!!!* A very bright flash distorts her vision for a moment. She looks up the castle. Or what is left of it... a very big mushroom-like cloud emerges from the place where her castle stood once before. The sky is dark brown and the sunlight is blocked by dark clouds. A loud, deep humming sound occurs. The pressure-wave approaches Ponyville. Ponies are running around in panic. A sharp wind blows through Celestia's eternal flowing mane. Then ponyville is hit by the full strength of the pressure wave. Every house, every tree, every... pony... is ripped apart from the force of the wave. Celestia is smashed against a building, before she feels that some bones are bursting in her body. She screams... Suddenly, in all that chaos, a humanoid figure appears in front of her. It's naked and in a mangled shape. Alma. She leans forward to the heavily bleeding Celestia and whispers in her ear... "This... Will... Happen..." "No..." whispers Celestia. "This... Is... The... Future..." FLASH "AAAAAAAAAAHHHGG!!!" screams Celestia and she falls on the floor, hyperventilating. Luna rushes to her sister "Oh my goodness! Tia!" Princess Celestia starts to cry in fear and shock. Then a hiccup stops her crying at short intervals. A Royal Guad rushes up them and says "Your highnesses! What happened?" But Celestia doesn't respond to him. Instead, she sobs "I... *hic*... want Michael *hic*... back!" Princess Luna turns to the Royal Guard "We were leaving her throne hall, to lead her to her room. Just as we stepped through the door, she let out this scream..." "Is there something I can help?" asks the Royal Guard. "At the moment... no... Thanks you!" says Luna. The Royal Guard bows and trots away. "Don't leave me, Michael!" whispers Celestia and she stands up. She wobbles a little bit and Luna helps her to her room. Luna covers her shivering sister with a sheet and says "Don't worry. I will visit Michael tonight!"

Luna just appeared out of nowhere in front of him. She trots up to him and says "To clear things up. Why you just leaved us without trying to calm her down?" Michael sits down at a bench (its a dreamworld!) and says "Well, I need just a longer vacation..." "A vacation?" "Yes, in my world, before I ended up here, I was fighting for three days for my life, then I was almost raped by Alma, then I was teleported into this world, then I suffered various hallucinations and defeated Alma's appariations, then the griffons, then I was impaled by a tentacle, then the Replica. And at last Celestia said that she loves me, but I can't love her back because I don't have romantical feelings for her. Do you know how I feel?!" exclaims Michael. Luna lowers her head. She knows now what Michael gone through. But she doesn't know how he feels. "No..." "I feel like I'm a piece of meat!" says Michael. Lunas bursts out in laughter. "What's so funny?" groans Michael, "I meant it serious!" Luna wipes some tears from her eyes with her hoof. Then she says giggling "Okay... I will say that to my sister... it's time for waking up! I will visit now your friend..." "WTF???" Michael opens his eyes. He lies on the couch of the library. He stands up and stretches his body. Some bones are popping in his body. The sun is already raising and he hears a yawn from the upper floors of the library. The sunshine wakes Twilight and Spike up. Michael then hears yelling out from the basement. "EVER HEARD OF PRIVACY?" Point Man beams out from the basement and says "That freakin' U.S. navy blue aldicorny visited me! IN MY MIND! And she didn't even asked!" Michael facepalms and says to himself "Luna, Luna... now she learned to never visits his dreams again..." Twilight hears Point Man's yelling and gallops down the stairs "What happened?!" Point Man looks to her. Twilight takes some steps back in shock as he sees his face. His face shows totally unleashed rage. Point Man exclaims "I was dreaming as suddenly that blue pony-bird-unicorn-princess-of-whatever-thingie appeared in front of me. At first I thougth it was normal but then she said 'Don't worry! I'm really in your dream.'. I couldn't believe what I just heard, so then I shouted Right.Into.Her.Face. 'GET YOUR ASS OUT FROM MY MIND!'. She flown away in shock, then I waked up!" Twilight wears a shocked expression. Then she says "You said... Shouted to her? 'Get your ass out from my mind!'? But why are you so upset? It's her duty to visit other dreams! And everypony likes that!" "Then I am one of those 'ponies' who don't want to be visited. It's absolutely not her business what she can find in my brain!" groans Point Man, "That's just a slump in personal privacy!" Twilight thinks about this statement, then she says "Hmm... in some cases you are right... Well, lets just have our breakfast!" After the breakfast, Point Man and Michael decides to walk around in Ponyville. As they are walking through the streets, almost every pony smiles and waves a hoof to them. "If you want, we can split up and each of us can enjoy his free time alone!" Point Man groans. He is still a little bit upset about the unwelcome guest in his dream. "I will take it as a yes," says Michael, "I will go to Applejack. I miss her pies." As he walks out from Ponyville to Sweet Apple Acres, he can hear a jet sound. But the sound doesn't approach him. He looks up to the sky and spots a rainbow-coloured trail. "Aha... Rainbow Dash..." mutters Michael. He jumps over the fence of the farm and knocks at the door of Applejack's house. After a while, the door is opened by a little filly. Applebloom. "Oh hi Mishel'! Ah'm so happy to see ya'! Ah'm sure ya'r here for a applepy'! Sorry, but Applejack is workin' on tha farm!" says Applebloom happily. Michael is surprised "Yes... but how do you know?" Applebloom giggles "Silly, evrypony comes here for a pie and..." *BOOOM!* A great rainbow-coloured explosion occurs in a height of 300 metres in the sky. Then the explosion is surrounded by rainbow-coloured rings. Applebloom's jaw drops "A Sonic Rainboom..." Michael turns around and spots the explosion, too. He shrugs and turns back to Applebloom "Well... okay. Now about the Applepie..." Appleboom shakes her head and says "Hm...? Ah... Sorry..." and she trots back into the house. After a while, she comes back with a basket in her mouth. In the basket are three applepies. Michael says "Thank you... how much it costs?" "10 bits, tha' basket is on tha' house!" says Applebloom. Michael gives her 10 bits, says "Goodbye and send greetings to Applejack," and he starts to walk back to the village. On the way, he spots Rainbow Dash trotting up to him. She looks happy. Michael tries to smile but it fails as Rainbow Dash asks him "Aaaaand? What do you think about my Sonic Rainboom?" Michael tries to find the right words, then he says... "I witnessed bigger and louder explosions." Rainbow Dash eyes widen in shock. Then she shakes her head and says "Aww... you're lying!" "No, I'm not lying. I'm just not surprised... do you want a piece of applepie?" and he offers her some applepie. After a while, they both are sitting on a bench the park of Ponyville, eating the applepie. Michael realizes that he bought too much pie and a applepie must be eaten in a fresh state. So he eats the pies together with Rainbow Dash. She asks "The last time I showed you my tricks, you get bored. Why?" Michael swallows a piece of the pie, then he says "That's easy to explain. Your put your tricks in a pointless order. They are cool, of course. But just let us think of music. The parts in the music are put in a harmonic order. While practicing your tricks, just think you compose a piece of music. Start with something slow, then go faster. In the middle of your show gear up in overdrive. And in the end do your sonic rainboom." Her eyes are lighten up. She never hears this tip before. "Thanks you very much! Do you think I will become a wonderbolt? They are the best flyers in whole Equestria!" says Rainbow Dash. "If your tricks are good enough, then just send a application to them!" explains Michael while taking a bite in the pie. "Application? Just send a application, that's all?" asks Rainbow Dash dumbstruck, "But... how I write a application?" "Inform yourself, Just go to the library, borrow a book about writing formal letters and..." says Michael but he is interrupted by Rainbow Dash "Uuu... egghead stuff!" Michael groans and says "Even the Wonderbolts had to do egghead stuff to become famous!" Rainbow Dash ears are dropping as she hears this. She opens her mouth to say something but suddenly they both are hearing panicked screams. Applejack and Big MacIntosh are galloping down a hill, screaming all the time. "A DRAGON! A DRAGON!" yells Applejack. And then a big figure flies up behind the hill... A Armacham Helicopter. It flies directly up to Ponyville. Michael stands up and activates his comlink to Point Man "Hey, come in! We have a little problem here!" Point Man answers him "Spot that 'problem', too! I am on my way to the library!" Rainbow Dash looks in awe and fear at the flying thing. Applejack stops in front of Michael, panting heavily. She gasps "We must inform tha' princesses... Huuuff!" Big MacIntosh keeps running to Ponyville. "What is that thing, Michael?" asks Rainbow Dash. But Michael doesn't answere her question. He stands up and says "You can have the rest of the applepies! I must go now!" And he sprints back to the library... Applejack follows him. **** Five minutes ago **** Point Man's PoV Point Man walks through Ponyville. He heads for nowhere, just walking around for searching tactical position if the town is under attack. Suddenly, a pink blur beams up to him. Point Man instantly unholsters his pistol and aims at... Pinkie Pie, who stops as she realizes that he thinks he is attacked. She giggles "Don't worry! I'm... WE are here to cheer you up, you silly! I saw that my cupcakes didn't make you smile, so now we are trying a different way to make you smile!" Point Man groans and holsters his pistol "You can try, but it will not work..." She starts... Youtube Video Point Man looks dumbstruck at the scene before him. Pinkie Pie smiles to him and asks "And... are you happy?" Suddenly, Point Man hears a familiar sound. He turns to the source of the sound. A Armacham helicopter. It heads to the library. He starts to sprint, leaving a stunned and heavily shocked Pinkie Pie. Not even her Smile song makes him smiling. Point Man hears Michael through his comlink "Hey, come in! We have a little problem here!" He says back "Spot that 'problem', too! I am on my way to the library!" In less than 10 seconds, he arrives at the library. He bursts through the door, unholsters his pistol. A feminine voice asks "Where's Michael...?" **** Michael's PoV The first he notices at the library is the golden chariot. He bursts open the doors and spots... the princesses, Twilight Sparkle, Point Man and Spike. Two Royal Guards are with them. The Royal Guards are saluting to Michael as he steps into the library. Princess Celestia stands up from the couch and says "I'm so sorry, Michael..." "Shut up and listen. A helicopter flies to Ponyville. I don't know what they want but we should prepare for the worst!" says Michael and walks to the couch, taking his Combat Shotgun. Luna trots up to him and snarls "How DARE you to say 'Shut up' to a princess?!" Michael just shrugs. The helicopter approaches the library. But instead of landing or attacking the tree, three passengers are lowering themselves with ropes down, three unarmed Replica Soldiers, one of them doesn't wear a helmet. This Replica says something to the other Replicas, which are nodding. The Replica walks to the door of the library without the other Replicas. "Lock that door!" commands Princess Celestia. One of the Royal Guards, a unicorn, locks the door with his telekinesis. The Replica tries to open the door but it doesn' budge. A grin appears in his face and what happens then, that isn't expected by anyone, not even by the princesses or by Michael and Point Man. The Replica just walks through the door like it's not there... Everyone can get a good sight at the intruder. He has short brown hair. A little round scar is on his forehead. His eyes are grey. And to their horror, red smoke engulfes the body of the man. Point Man recognizes instantly who the man is. "What the hell... I thougth I killed you!" says Point Man annoyed. The man smiles "Yes... my brother. You killed me. I didn't like that. But I am reborn." "Who are you?" asks Princess Celestia. The man looks up to her and says "Forgive me my rudeness. My name is Paxton Fettel and I am his brother. I am here to send a message to you, Princess Celestia." She takes some steps back "How... know you my name? And what for a message?" "Nothing is impossible for a son of Alma," he looks up to the rest and closes his eyes, "And this is Luna, your sister. Huh... I feel another personality in her. It wants to break out. And this is Twilight Sparkle, your... faithful student. And this is Spike, her assisstant. The last one is... Applejack..." Princess Celestia is surprised and shocked at once. She feels great might in him... even more than in Discord. Mind-reading... He opens his eyes and says "Now I will say the message. Princess Celestia, this is you last chance. Come with me, work together with Armacham and nothing will happen to your folk. If you refuse... well, let's just say you will regret your refusing!" Princess Celestia's face shows anger "If you dare to hurt any of my subjects... I always take care of my subjects! Royal Guards! Arrest him!" The pegasus Royal Guard nods and rushes up to Paxton... "Oh, you wanna play the hero? Okay!" he says smiling and he stretches his right arm to the Royal Guard. A red beam emerges from his hand and holds the Royal Guard at his throat. The princesses are gasping in shock. Point Man shouts "Stop that! Let him down!" But Paxton just smiles and says "I really want to know how it feels to be in the body of a mystical creature..." And with that, he dissolves in red dust. The dust flies into the body of the Royal Guard. He falls to the ground, shaking his head to the sides. Then he stops. Red smoke comes out from the body of the Royal Guard. Princess Celestia can't believe what she just saw... she asks "... F-Ferrum (that's the name of the Royal Guard)... are you alright?" "Hehehe... I'm not Ferrum...anymore," speaks the Royal Guard with the voice of Paxton. Everypony gasps in shock. Michael just watches the scene. Point Man just facepalms. "Mmmh... that's how it feel to be a pegasus... but I feel...naked," says the Royal Guard. "Let him free!" commands Celestia. The possessed Royal Guard smiles... "Okay!" Point Man whispers to Michael "Let's find cover behind the couch... this is going to be real dirty!" and they both are crouching behind the couch... A red spider-web like muster appears on the fur of the Royal Guard. His eyes are spilling out... *SPLAT!* The whole body of the Royal Guard explodes, sending blood, guts and crushed bone pieces in every direction through the library. Even the princesses are soaked with the red mass. Twilight and Applejack are starting to hyperventilate, Spike faints and the princesses are letting out a yelp of fear. Then Paxton materializes at the place where the Royal Guad exploded. He smiles "He's free!" and he starts to laugh. Michael and Point Man didn't get hit by the gore. They both are standing up and looking at the mess. Paxton stops laughing as the another Royal Guard gets the order from Celestia to pin him down with a spell. The unicorn Royal Guard starts to summon energy in his horn... and he stops with that as Paxton holds the unicorn's throat with the same red beam, but this time with his left hand. Then he holds up his open right hand and he clenches this hand to a fist... *SPLAT!* The unicorn meets the same gruesome death like the pegasus but without the possession. The Princesses are falling on her haunches in shock. Paxton turns to them "I could do this the same on you with no problems..." As Michael hears this , he exclaims "When you even think of...!," he rushes up to Paxton and lungs out with his right arm, to break his nose... and he finds himself holding by Paxtons red telekinetic beam. Princess Celestia yells "IF YOU DARE TO HURT HIM...", stands up and gallops up to Paxton. She lowers her head to shoot a great telekinetic beam at Paxton with her horn. The last time she did this was as she fought Queen Chrysalis. But like Michael, Paxton stops her summoning by holding her at her throat with his telekinetic. "I'm not finished, yet!" says Paxton, "So, you come with me or not, princess? It would be a shame if I kill a... goddess!" Celestia struggles in his telekinetic grip and says "...No!" Suddenly, Paxton stops holding Michael and Princess Celestia. "Good, then it's not my business anymore... I wish you all a... wonderful day. Especially you, brother and Michael Becket... this is propably not the last time we see us...," says Paxton and he turns around. Then he takes a deep breath and says "A war is coming, I've seen it in my dreams. Fires sweeping through the earth, bodies in the streets, cities turned to dust." "What?" says Celestia confused. "Retaliation..." says Paxton with a deep voice. Point Man waves with his hands "Yeah, yeah... I already know this fairytale!" Paxton says "Before I forget it... I have something you might want to watch." He opens his pocket and takes out a USB-Flashdrive and throws it to Point Man, who catches it with his right hand. Then Paxton just walks to the locked door and right through it. He spots the chariot and he starts to grin. Turning around and looking to the princesses inside the library, he pulls the pin of a grenade and throws the grenade into the golden chariot... *BASH!* The golden chariot bursts in thousand pieces... A ladder falls from the still waiting helicopter and he climbs up the ladder up. Then the helicopter flies away, back from where it cames... Michael crouches to the panting Celestia and asks "Is everything alright?" "Yes... he didn't hurt me... but how did he find out that I'm a deity?" mutters Celestia. Point Man says "But he could kill you with ease!" "How did he find us?" whispers Luna shocked. Point Man turns to her and says "My freaking brother is able to track down the psychic signs of psionics... that means YOU! Armacham will use him as a detector for psionics. That means you all can't hide from him." Silence. That shocks everypony in the room. Twilight starts to sob quietly. Michael asks "Tia... sorry that I wasn't there for you when you needed me... But I have a question. You are immortal, right? Which type of immortal? The uber-immortality or the just never getting old immortality?" Princess Celestia wipes some tears from her face with her hoof and turns to Michael. She never heard this question before. Then she says "Something with...both...". She can't hold the urge back. Suddenly, she hugs Michael with her wings. And for the first time, Michael wraps his arms around her and pulls her thight on his body... and... And he pulls her up on her legs. She stumbles a little, but Michael keeps her standing. He says "The situation is death-serious. I will go back to the castle and secure you 24/7! Aaah... shit Paxton destroyed your chariot..." and he unwraps himself from her hugging wings. Point Man takes the word "I will go back to the castle, too. We have our APC and we will just drive back! But under one condition...," and he turns to Luna, "Never visit me in my dreams again..." Princess Luna winces slightly and nods. Then Point Man examines the USB-Flashdrive "I wonder what information are on this thing..."

His goggles are scrambling as he spots a familiar little black-haired girl in a red dress. The girl turns around and disappears. He stands up, holding himself at the smashed chariot and starts to walk through the road. The girls appears again, next to another broken chariot. He stumbles a little and a severe pain shoots through his chest. Looking down, he spots a hole in his right chest. Blood leaks out, but he doesn't feel dizzy. However, he covers the hole with his left hand and keeps the blood in his body. He walks further through the road. The houses around him are destroyed, flames are coming through the windows of them. The sky is blood red and the clouds are moving fast. Then he spots a equines skeleton and he walks up to it. It is large, large as he is and has wings and a horn. It's skull has a large hole in it. He realizes that this is a gunshot wound. His goggles are scrambling and he spots the girl at the marketplace of the village. The fountain of the marketplace is missing, there is just a yellow glowing hole at the place of the fountain. The alleyways to the marketplace are blocked with pieces pf buildings, so he realizes that there is no other way than through the hole. As he approaches the hole, the little girl walks to the hole and disappears. He takes a deep breath and jumps in the hole... FLASH Michael opens his eyes, but he closes them immidiately because his eyes are not adjusted to the bright light, yet. After a while he can open his eyes without having problems and he looks around... and then directly into turquoise eyes. "For Celestia's sake, I'm glad that you're awake!" says the female zebra. He looks puzzled in her face... "Well, uhm hello..." he mutters. Then he realized that he doesn't wear his Combat Suit, only his black boxers. Around his chest are several bandages... "Where are my manners, Zecora is my name. If you don't tell me yours, for me it would be a shame...," saya the Zebra. He says "Okay, my name is Michael Becket... what happened?" Zecora then tells him in rhymes how and where she found him. She says that he was near death, but she used medicine herbals on him. The hole in his chest healed up quickly and he can leave whenever he want. He says "Thank you so much for rescuing me, but I have to go now." (Author's note: Sorry, but it's almost impossible for me to make rhymes in english. Any help is welcome.) After a while, he leaves Zecora's hut. He wears his Combat Suit, but a hole is on the chest part. Michael thinks "Mmmh... maybe Rarity can help me with repairing my Suit..." Ponyville, Rarity's Boutique Rarity arrived at her Boutique yesterday. She and her friends Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Twilight could leave the hospital in Canterlot. She thinks about Michael... she decides to distract herself from him, so she continues on her work where she stops some days ago. Suddenly, a knock occurs on her door. "Oh, that's a customer!" she thinks and rushes to the door. She opens it and says "Welcome to my Bo... OH!" She recognizes the creature instantly. It's Spike. "Oh... hello Spike!" says Rarity smiling, "What do you want?" "I want to ask if you need help," says the Dragon, "A new human arrived at our world. He is in Twilight's library and they are talking about a company called 'Amacham'... I get bored so decided to show up here." Rarity says "Of course I need your help. Your claws are really helpful!" Spike smiles and steps through the doorway and Rarity closes the door with her telekinetic. 30 minutes passed and Rarity is still planning a dress as suddenly Spike yells "There's a knock on the door. I will look after that!" "Do it, I'm busy!" yells Rarity back. She can hear the door opens, a loud gasp from Spike and a very familiar voice. She trots out from her room and went downstairs "Who's there, Spikey? *GASP!*" In her boutique stands Michael Becket, scratching the back of his head. "Sorry, that I'm still alive... but could you please help me with... *UNGH!*" says Michael but he is suddenly pinned down by Rarity "Oh Darling, I'm so happy to see you alive!" and she hugs him. Michael looks over to Spike who looks quietly shocked. He wants to be greeted by Rarity in this way, too... "Rarity... I think that another one wants to be hugged, too!" jokes Michael. Spike shocked expression changes to a 'Don't-say-a-word'-expression. Rarity jumps from his chest and asks "What happened? Why are you here?" Michael explains "I was rescued by the lovely Zecora. I'm here because this Suit has a hole... you know what it caused..." Rarity whimpers a little as he said this, then she says "Of course I will take care of that. And don't even think of paying me! The first time goes on the house and I will repair it in 15 minutes, just wait here!" "Thanks... I really want to know who the new guy is!" says Michael. 15 minutes later "Wow, good work Rarity. It looks like on it's first day!" exclaims Michael. Rarity says "Thanks, Darling. Now come, I think the new guy will be happy to meet you!" Rarity, Michael and Spike are walking out from her Boutique, heading to Twilight's library... Ponyville, Twilight's Library "They builded a teleporter?!" exclaims Twilight, "and they will come to Equestria?!?" Point Man says flatly "Yes, and I think they will not be very friendly..." Applejack says "If dey' ar' traing' to hurt us, Ah' will buck their livin' hay of them!" Pinkie Pie just laughs "Maybe a party will make them friendly! Oh I forget to throw for you a party!" and she bounces joyfully through the library. At this moment, Point Man thinks Crap, I feel like I'm in a show for creepy little girls... A knock on the door occurs and the sound of Rarity's voice comes "Darling, it's me and I have someone for you!" Twilight opens the door with her tekekinetic. Point Man sees this and groans "Oh perfect! I'm surrounded by psionic ponies!" Twilight chuckles a little at this and looks back to Rarity and the 'someone'. *GASP!* Twilight's teleports herself to Michael and hugs him. "I thought you were dead!" she sobs. "I'm not easy to kill... and who's the new guy?" says Michael. Twilight stops hugging him and trots over to the new guy. Michael approaches the man and holds a hand over to him... Suddenly, a severe pain shoot through his hand. He let out a grunt of pain. Then he knows who the guy is. "I know who you are!" Twilight's jaw drops, then she says smiling "Oh that's great! For how long?" Michael grabs Point Man at his shoulders. To the ponies surprise, Michael doesn't seem to be happy... in fact, his face shows anger. Michael growls "You... you are her bastard son!" Point Man pushes him away and says angrily "Hey, don't blame me for the actions of my insane mother. I suffered her horror like everyone she threatened!" Twilight, Spike, Applejack, and Rarity are exchanging puzzled looks. Pinkie Pie just smiles, she thinks that this is an act. Then Rarity says "What are you meaning? We don't understand!" Michael turns to the ponies and says, pointing at Point Man (A pun, hurray!) "This man... is Alma's son!" Even Pinkie Pie is heavily shocked at this words...

All of its content belongs to Hasbro Inc.I don't own the F.E.A.R. game series, characters, names, places, story etc. All of its content belongs to Monolith Production Inc. **** Interval 01- Starting ...Will she make it... ...I feel so sorry... Her whole body hurts. She tries to open her eyes but she couldn’t. Then she tries to move to her side, but her body doesn’t want to react... “She wakes up, my sister. Look!” Twilight knows that voice. It’s Princess Luna. She hears approaching hoofstep sounds. “Please rest, Twilight... oh no... I feel so sorry for you...” she hears the shaky voice of Princess Celestia. Twilight tries to remember what happened. Within a split of a second, she remembers... After the shake, the chariot fell down from the sky like a stone. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, the pegasi Royal Guards and Black Needler could save themselves from falling down, but they couldn’t save the ponies who can’t fly. Twilight finally managed to open her eyes. She looks around. The walls and the ceilings has white tiles on it. She is lying in a bed, a thin hosepipe sticks in her left foreleg. In the bed next to her left lies Applejack, to her right is Rarity. Pinkie Pie lies in a bed in the other side of the room. Everyone has a hosepipe in their left foreleg. Then she looks to the princesses who are looking back with tearfilled eyes to her. Princess Celestia says “I’m so sorry, I shouldn’t let you defeat Alma alone...” “It’s not able to defeat her...,” mutters Twilight, “That’s why we were on the way back to Canterlot... before the chariot crashed...” “...that can’t be...,” mutters Celestia. Princess Luna can’t hold her question back “What is with Michael and Shining?” The memories of Michael are flowing back in Twilight’s brain. She hears his last words in her head... GET THE FUCK OUT!!! He tried to save their lives, even when he loses his own... with success. The mane six are alive, but Michael is dead. And Shining was killed without mercy by Alma. "Where are the others?" asks Twilight, trying to change the subject. Celestia takes a deep breath and says "They are in Ponyville, waiting for you. You all will leave the Hospital tomorrow." Twilight’s eyes are watering up. The princesses are approaching and embrace her. “Please, can I read your mind? So you don’t have to tell us what happened back in the old ruins” says Celestia. She knows that the memories might be disturbing and not suitable for her, but she want to knows the details... she moves her horn down to Twilight’s horn. FLASH The memories are flowing through the horn of Celestia. Her eyes are going wide... she moves her horn away from Twilight’s. “Michael... Shining...” mutters Celestia. She sits down on her haunches, to digest the memories. After a while, Celestia says "We are going back to our duties... Please sleep, my student!". Her voice shivers a little. Twilight nods and closes her eyes, to get some rest. Everfree Forest The forest is a place full of 'wild magic' (paranormal activities), strange creatures and strange plants. The wind whistles quietly through the branches of the tree. This silence is interrupted by a loud hissing sound. It comes from a clearing. The clearing is somewhere deep in the forest and several miles away from the ex-old-ruins. A little white orb hovers in the middle of the clearing, 1.50 metres above the grounds. The orb increases in size until it's three metres wide. Some flashes are surrounding the orb, which is a portal now. Suddenly, three bipedal creatures are emerging out from the portal. They are holding metallic tools in their hands and they are looking around. After a while, one of them moves his left hand to his left ear and says "Commander? Here's Echo 13. Area secured. We're in a forest. We may proceed with the test subject!" Four more mens are emerging out from the portal. They are holding a great cage. But instead of grids, the cage has thick glass. Inside the cage stands a man. He has almost shoulder length black hair, and a small beard around his mouth area. He wears green pants and a brown pullover. The pullover has a sign on every arm: 'P1'. On his waist are pockets and a holster for a pistol, but it's empty. The men are putting the cage on the ground and walking back through the portal. Some seconds passed and they are coming back through the portal, each of them holds a large box. On every box is a sign: WARNING!FIREARMS AND EXPLOSIVES!DO NOT THROW! The men are putting the boxes on the ground. One man asks "Hey Chris, what are we doing next?" "The commander says that we should search the area for any lifeforms and taking notes of them," says Chris. "And what is with this guy?" asks the man, which name is Miller, pointing at the man in the glasscage. "Pff... I don't know. The commander says that we should wait for further oders," shrugs Chris. The man in the cage looks up to Chris, anger in his face. Chris just holds his middle finger up to him... Suddenly, one of the armed men shouts "Unknown lifeform detected. Maybe hostile!" They all are turning their heads and spots a creature which they never saw before. It has the body of a lion, the wings of a bat and the tail of a scorpion. A Manticore. The men are unlocking their Briggs SMG's and aiming at the manticore. The manticore growls in response. It's not hungry or so, but the men are in his territory. With instant, the manticore charges up to them. Chris shouts "SUPPRESSIVE FIRE! FALL BACK THROUGH THE PORTAL!" and shoots a burst from his SMG at the manticore. The manticore screams in pain and anger, but it keeps running. All men are turning around and jumping through the portal, with the exception of Chris, who still fires at the manticore. The bullets are too weak to come to the vital spots of the manticore. Suddenly, the portal closes. Chris screams in fear as the manticore pounces at him. He is pinned down by the manticore. The manticore opens his big maw... and bites the head of Chris. His skull just explodes like a ballon, blood flows out from his headless throat. The manticore looks at it's work, jumps from the headless corpse and turns around. He spots the man in the glasscage. This would be a easy target for the manticore and it pounces at the cage. The man inside grunts in pain as his head meet the glass behind him in a unpleasant way. "Wait until I'm outside!" growls the man. The manticore seems to understand his words -it grins- and it smashed the glass with the spike of his scorpion tail. The glass shatters and the manticore tries to pull it's head through the hole... until the man inside the cage kicks him hardly at it's snout. A loud *CRACK* occurs and the manticore jumps back in surprise. The man smashes the rest of the glass with his fist and climbs out from the cage, bloodlust in his eyes "Now the things are going to be real dirty!" He rushes to the corpse of Chris and open the pockets to find a very special tool. A sharp combat knife. He turns around to the manticore, which stands up and pounces again at him... The man stepped to the side and spots a weak place on the manticore... (Author's note: No, not the weak place!) He lungs out with the knife and slices the throat of the manticore. The cut in the manticore's throat is deep and long and the manicore falls to the ground and spasmed on the ground. After some minutes, the manticore went limp... The man just turns around and heads for one of the boxes. He opens one and for a short moment a grin appears on his face. Taking out a Armacham G3A3 Assault Rifle, a EL-10 CAS shotgun and a pistol, some spare ammo, he stands up and looks around. He can see mountains. One thing confuses him: A castle, which is on one of the mountains. "So that means this world is populated by intelligence lifeforms," mutters the man. He realizes that the forest is deep. And maybe there are more dangerous lifeforms... he starts walking, with the Shotgun in stroke, into the dark forest... After 30 minutes of walking, he could hear children screams. “I know that I will meet someone sooner or later... who threaten someone other...” says the man and starts to sprint to the direction of the screams. He steps out from the forest and he spots something unfamiliar. Three little horses...no... ponies (?) are running away from a crowd of wooden wolves...? The first one has orange fur, wings, and a violet mane. The second one has yellow fur and red mane, with a pink ribbon in it. And the last one has a white fur, a horn and violet-coloured mane. And the fillies are screaming “AAH, LET US ALIVE!!!” “... whatever... they need help,” mutters the man to himself. From the tone in their voices he realizes that they are very young. He sprints up to the wooden wolves and follows them, like he hunts the fillies, too. The fillies are spotting the man and they are screaming more. Five very loud thunderclaps are occuring. The fillies are stumbling in shock and face-landing on the ground. They expect to be getting killed by the wolves or the bipedal creature... or both. But then the creature speaks, pointing a finger at them “The forest is too dangerous for little things like you!” The fillies are looking around and a loud gasp escape from their mouths. Their eyes are confronted with the sight of mangled wolf bodies. Then they are looking back to the man, who saved their lives. He wears a total neutral expression in his face. “But at first, who and what are you?” asks the man. The fillies are standing up. They feel not sure to the man... “I’m Scootaloo!” says the pegasus. “I’m Sweete Belle!” says the unicorn. “Ahm’ Applebloom!” says the ‘normal’ pony. “And we are the cutie mark crusaders!” they are yelling in one unison. “Okay, and what are you?” asks the man, raising an eyebrow. Scootaloo says “We’re ponies. And what are you?” Before the man can answere her question, Applebloom says “Ah’ know what his spesies” is calld’. He is a hyooman!” The man is slightly confused “How do you know it?” Applebloom says smiling “A week ago, another human arrived in auer’ world. His name is Michael Becket. Ah heard nothin’ from him sienc' he leavs’ our farm.. ba’ the way’, whad’ is yar' name?” The man says “Uhm... my name is not a normal one...” Sweete Belle says “Well, Michael Becket isn’t a normal name to us... so just say, what is your name?” “Point Man...” Earth, Fairport, Armacham Underground Facilities "Get the Replica Soldiers ready," commands Genevieve Aristide, "And make sure that they are carrying the big calibers!" She stands in Daniel's office, in front of his desk. Enginer Daniel asks "I'll do that, but why the replicas?" "From the report I got from Miller, the new world is not very peaceful and the first team forgot 'P1' back there... And don't forget some Blackhawk Helicopters and APC's. The teleporter seems to be able to make stable portals. Maybe strong enough to move our base there," says Genevieve. He smirks a little "Ma'am you're exaggatering a little..." She says "I know, I'm exaggatering where I can," and she walks out from Daniel's office.

Before Michael can respond her question, Point Man says "Yes, in front of you stands one of Alma's sons. Any questions?" and looks over to the ponies. "Hol' on! Ya' hav' a brother?" ask Applejack shocked. "Yes, his name is Paxton Fettel. I don't know why he got a proper name..." he says. "How is he?" asks Rarity. "My brother? He is a insane, psychopathic cannibal, who killed and eat every human who was involved in Project Origin. What the Project was for... pfff I don't know!" says Point Man. That shocks Twilight even more "I hope that he will never take a step in our world..." Point Man says "He? My brother? He is not able to do this because I pulled a bullet into his head!" Everypony gasps on shock "Wait! Ya'... killed yar' own brother?" asks Applejack shocked. "Yes. I got the chance to kill him, so I used the chance. Hell, I was so glad that he finally stopped talking!" he says in tone as if it were the most normal thing in the world. "How dare you to say it like it is normal?" snarls Rarity. Point Man gives her a neutral glare and says "Because I'm Alma's son, I have a very special ability, called Slow-mo and..." he is suddenly interrupted by Twilight "Michael has this ability, too!" Point Man looks over to Michael, who says "After a big explosion, I gained this ability through a surgery." Point Man thinks for moment then he says "My ability is congenital. Because of this, I'm lacking human emotions. Some people are saying that I'm a unstoppable killing machine. And they are right... And the explosion you talked about was caused by me, by the way." Michael's face changes to total rage. He can't believe what he just hears. "HOW DARE YOU TO NUKE A WHOLE CITY!?!? YOU KILLED SO MANY PEOPLE!!!!" shouts Michael. Point Man shouts back "I HAD TO DO IT! AND IT WASN'T A NUKE! I SHOOT THAT FUCKING ORIGIN FACILITY REACTOR! I DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT WILL CAUSE SUCH A LARGE DESTRUCTION!" Michael shouts back “SHOOTING A REACTOR IS ALWAYS A BAD IDEA!!! AND YOUR FUCKING MOTHER TRIED TO RAPE ME!" Point Man seems a bit surpried by this, then he teases "Well, that means my mother likes you..." Twilight feels that a fight is coming, so she holds them back via her telekinetic. They are struggling against her telekinetic grip, but after a while they are stopping. Pinkie Pie has already a idea in her mind “Come, let's eat some cupcakes. It will cheer you up!” Twilight looks to Michael and Point Man and says "If you two are start fighting again, I will cast a spell that will let you sleeping! Understand? Excuse yourself!" Twilight knows where her position is. Point Man and Michael are looking at Twilight, then to each other. Finally, Michael says "Sorry...". Point Man looks to the side and says "It's okay...". Twilight says, with a winning smile in her face "Was it so difficult?" and lets them free from her telekinetic grip. Pinkie Pie bounces up to them, brings two cupcakes out of nowhere and says smiling "Eat them, you sillys!" Michael takes one, says "Thanks" and bites in it. He starts to smile, like everyone who eats a cupcake made by Pinkie. Then she walks to Point Man and offers him the other one, too. He takes it, says flatly "Thanks" and bites in it. After a while he says "Uuuhm... tastes good..." and he sits down at the couch of the library. But Pinkie doesn't wait for a agreement for the good taste/quality of her cupcakes. She waits that Point Man starts to smile... 5 minutes passed and Point Man doesn't smile yet. Instead, he notices the staring of Pinkie and asks "Do I have something on my face?" Pinkie's mane deflates instantly and she whimpers "Do my cupcakes not make you... smile?" Point Man looks to her and says just one word "No." The other ponies are gasping. Applejack says "Wha' ya' cant just smile?" Point Man sighs and turns himself to them "Like I said, I lack emotions, so stop trying to make me smile, laughing, crying or whatever..." Pinkie walks over to Michael and nuzzled his side. She can't believe that her cupcakes doesn't make Point Man smiling. After a while, her mane goes back to it's normal form. Twilight wants to know more about Point Man and asks "Are there more familiy members?" Point Man looks over to her and says "Yes, I had a father and a aunt... my father was an asshole, but to my luck, he was killed by Alma. My aunt Alice Wade... even when I'm lacking emotions, I really wanted to know more about her. I think she was the only family member who wasn't insane..." Rarity asks "How she was? What happened to her?" "My lovely brother Paxton Fettel cannibalized her... and that was reason enough,why I shoot into his head," says Point Man, "You see, all familys are having their problems, but in our family the problems are special!" Twilight tries to change the subject and says "Tomorrow, we will travel to Canterlot and introduce you to the Princesses!" Point Man looks to her and asks "Canterlot? Princesses?" She rolls her eyes again and points with the hoof at the castle on the mountain, through the window. Point Man sees the castle and says "When I arrived here in this world, I saw this castle, too... I thinks it looks nice." Twilight says "Oh, we forgot to introduce you to Fluttershy! But please be gentle, she is a little bit shy..." A bit later and they are walking out from Ponyville to Fluttershy's cottage. Twilight walks ahead, behind her are Michael and Point Man. They both calmed down and exchanging their 'adventure stories'. Michael is surprised by the fact that Alma tried to kill Point Man, too. Their talking are interrupted by a approaching jet sound... "Seek cover!" shouts Michael and jumps behind a tree. Point Man just stays on the ground... (Author's Note: Point Man's use of 'Slow-mo' will be showed in this colour.) Slow-mo On Point Man turns around and grabs instantly the throat of Rainbow Dash with his right hand- not tight, but strong enough to fling her on the ground in usuage of her momentum. Then he pins RD down with his legs and holds his Combat Knife at her throat. Slow-mo Off Twilight witnessed the scene and yells "Don't hurt her. She's my friend!" Point Man looks to Twilight, then to Rainbow Dash. He says, while standing up and putting his knife back "If you do this again, I will take care that you will not be able to do this again." He looks to the other ponies and says "Sorry, but it was a reflex!" Rainbow Dash whimpers slightly at this, then she let out a annoyed grunt and says "Again a human, which has this stupid 'Slow-mo' ability!" Twilight rolls her eyes and "We are going now to Fluttershy. Do you want to come with us?" Rainbow Dash says "Yes of course! I missed Bucket!" and looks over to Michael, who just facepalms... They are just now some metres away from Fluttershy's cottage. Twilight gallops ahead and knocks at first at the door. The door opens and Fluttershy trots out "Oh... hello friends! It's nice from you that you visits me!" Twilight smiles and says "Well, I'm here to introduce you to Point Man. He's new here and..." "Point Man?" Fluttershy looks over to him, "EEP!" She hides her face behind her mane. Point Man just approaches and ducks down in front of her, to get to her eye-level. He says "Hello, my name is Point Man. I don't mean any harm to you or your friends. Can we come in your cottage?" Fluttershy nods and rushes into her house, followed by the rest. They all are sitting down on couches, while Fluttershy prepared for some tea. After a while, her animal friends are bringing trays with cups on it to the other ponies and humans. Then Fluttershy trots to the couch and sits herself down next to Point Man. He then looks in her face, but Fluttershy still hides behind her mane and mutters quietly "M-my name is Fluttersh..." Even with Point Man's lack of emotions, he can feel that she is a little bit frightened in his presence so he tries the best thing: He starts to pet Fluttershy's mane. She squeaks in surprise, but then she makes 'Mmmmh'. She enjoyed his stroking. After a while Point Man looks over to the other ponies, who jaws drops. Michael just watches the scene. Rainbow Dash nuzzled his side. She misses him so bad... Michael doesn't misses her. Rarity is surprised and says to Point Man "Wow Darling, I've never think that you will doing this..." Point Man responses "Even when I'm a unstoppable... you know what... , I'm not a monster..." Michael looks with surprise at Point Man and grabs a bottle from the desk, to drink from it. After he take some sips, Pinkie Pie says “Er... Michael, you are drinking Hot Sauce!” Michael looks with surprise at the bottle. He just shrugs and drinks the bottle empty. The jaws of each pony drops. Michael says “Mmmhh, spicy and hearty...” Later... It's evening now and Twilight decided to go back to her library. Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy are at their home. Spike writes a letter to the Princesses... Dear Princess Celestia, I have very good news for you. Another human arrived at our world. His name is Point Man. This might confuse you, but he's Alma's son. Don't worry, he means absolutely no harm to us. In fact, he doesn't like his own mother and she tried to kill him, too. By the way, Michael Becket is alive and back at my library. We will come to your castle tomorrow and introduce you him. Yours, Twilight Sparkle "Send it now," says Twilight. Spike takes a deep breath and burns the letter with his fire. The ash flies through a open window... Point Man watches in awe at this. Twilight turns to them and says "Now we should get some sleep and..." but she is interrupted by a *PING!*. Princess Celestia stands in Twilight's library, with wide eyes. She teleported herself the whole way from Canterlot to Ponyville. She opens her mouth but nothing comes out... she can't believe her eyes that Michael sits in front of her. Point Man examines her and thinks A winged unicorn or a horned pegasus? , then he leans to Michael and asks quietly "From which unethical laboratory did she escaped?" Michael moves his both hands to his face, blocking his mouth and nose. He face went red but he doesn't burst out in laughter. After a while, he moves his hands away from his face and takes some breaths. Point Man's face remains almost neutral. The left edge of his mouth moves a little up. Michael looks over to the princess and says smiling "Hi, Tia!" Instantly, Celestia rushes up to him and hugs him with her wings. "Whoah!" exclaims Michael. Point Man just watchs the scene and scratches his head. Princess Celestia unwraps her wings from Michael and says "I thougth you will never come back..." He responses "I thougth that, too... now I'm here." He is totally surprised by her reaction. Celestia smiles to him, then she looks to Point Man, who wears again a totally neutral expression. "Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you Point Man!" then she makes a more serious expression "Do not dare to hurt any of my ponies!" Point Man just says "Don't worry, I don't have any of the abilities of my insane mother... just the Slow-mo ability and a big lack of emotions. And don’t think I’m proud of being Alma’s son..." Princess Celestia looks confused “... no emotions? Well, we can talk about that tomorrow! Goodbye all!” She smiles to Michael, who salutes to her. *PING!* She teleports herself back to her castle. Michael doesn’t know what happened. Twilight giggles and says “It looks like she has something for you!” He says “WHAT? Oh great...” Everfree Forest Flies are flying around a headless, humanoid corpse. This corpse was Chris once before, but the very first day of testing the teleporter went wrong. A manticore attacks the group of soldiers. Only Chris didn’t manage to get through the portal... The ground starts to shake and a white orb hovers at the same place like the orb one day before. The orb grows in size. But this time it is much larger than before, around 30 metres this time. A great vehicle emerges from the orb, along with three other vehicles. 2 APC’s, a large transporter, which carries about 100 soldiers and a Black Hawk Helicopter. Inside each APC are eight soldiers. Each soldier in the vehicles is a Replica Soldier. But they are not activated yet... six little drones are detaching themselves from the transporter and flying to the direction of Canterlot. Ponyville, Twilight’s library “Michael! Point Man! Wake up! We must go to the trainstation!” yells Twilight. Point Man, who slept in the basement, looks at his watch and groans “It’s just 900!” As Twilight hears this she asks puzzled “900? It’s 9 o’clock!” Michael, who slept on the couch, says “He said that, but in other words!” Then they are making breakfast. Twilight says to Point Man, that she already know about what humans eat, so there is no meat in this breakfast. The closest thing to meat would be eggs. Point Man just shrugs and says “I have to deal with that.” After the breakfast, they are going out to the trainstation of Ponyville. Rainbow Dash tries again to tackle one of them down, but a death glare of Point Man and a ‘I-will-watch-you’-gesture of Michael changes her mind and she flies away as fast as she can. Canterlot, Princess Celestia’s Castle “Is that true sister? Michael is still alive?” asks Princess Luna. She sits next to her sister, on a smaller throne. Celestia sits on the big throne, smiling to her “Yes, he’s alive. I saw it by myself.” A knock on the doors occurs. The Royal Guards in the throne hall are opening the doors and Twilight Sparkle, Michael Becket and Point Man are going through the door. Instantly as Princess Luna sees Michael, she literally beams to him and stands in front of him. She examines him with big eyes, unmoving. Michael approaches her and... waves his hands in front of her face “Hello? Equestria to Luna, please report!” Princess Celestia chuckles and says “My sister is a little bit surprised by your comeback. Now to you, Point Man. If you are a soldier, what’s your position?” Point Man approaches Celestia a bit and says “I’m a Former Special Force Operative and, like my name says, point man of the first F.E.A.R. team.” Princess Celestia raises and eyebrow “F.E.A.R.?” He continues “F.E.A.R. stands for First Encounter Assault Recon. They are consisting of Special Force Operatives and they are experts for paranormal activities and supernatural threats, like psionics. A good example for a psionic is my mother... or all ponies who can perform telekinetic. But we are responsible for Special Operations, like rescuing hostages or eliminating Replica Soldiers, too." Princess Luna wakes up from her staring at Michael and she asks “Replica Soldiers?” Michael takes the point “Replica Soldiers are...uhm... just imagine you would copy Twilight Sparkle thousand times. These replicas are living just for doing field duty in war or other military actions. And they can just do their work with a psychic commander. This commander gives them orders via a telephatic link. Without a psychic commander they are useless..." Princess Celestia seems a little bit shocked by this... then she asks Point Man “Yesterday, you said that you have no emotions. Is this correct?” “Yes, that’s correct. For example, I could kill Michael, no offense, and I can show no signs of regret,” says Point Man. The eyes of the princesses are widening. Suddenly, Michael catch a glimpse in the edge of his eyes. It comes from the windows. Michael recognizes instantly what moves behind the glass... he spins around, draws out his AR and shouts “UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE!!!” The ponies are jumping in shock. Point Man draws out his Armacham G3A3 AR and aims at the windows... *CLIRR* All windows are bursting and six UAV’s are hovering into the hall. They are flying drones and they have three ‘arms’, coming out from the centre of the drone. They are equipped with a single, rapid firing laser. And they are using now them... *ZAP* One laser hits Celestia at her left foreleg. She screams in pain. Michael shoots immidiately at the UAV. It bursts in a blue explosion. *BOOM* Point Man shoots the other UAV’s. *BOOM* *BOOM *BOOM* An UAV hovers to Michael from behind. Point Man shoots at it, but he realizes too late that the UAV is too near at Michael... The explosion throws Michael from his feet and it knocks him unconscious... *SLAP* Point Man slaps Michael in his face. His eyes are opening and he looks around. He lies on his back on the floor. Point Man stands over Michael, while a worried Princess Celestia lookd down to him. Princess Luna stands next to a panting Twilight, trying to calm her down. Point Man asks “Sorry for that... are you okay?” Michael face changes to anger and he shows Point Man his middle finger. Point Man groans and says “Yes, he’s fine!” and he helps Michael to get his on his feet. Remembering the attack on Celestia, Michael says “Tia, are you okay?” To his surprise, her leg is healed up. She says “After Point Man destroyed the last... thing... my sister used her telekinetic to heal up my injury... But thanks that you tried to help.” Michael can see her blush, then he says “Well, that things were built by Armacham... and they know about you now. They know now that this world is full with psionics, and they will probably ‘use’ unicorns... or even alicorns for they own...” Princess Celestia asks worried “What that means?” Michael says “As Paxton Fettel were killed, Armacham needed a new psychic commander. They got the crazy idea to enhance the telepathic abilitys from normal humans. The results were... disturbing. The subjects changed their personalitys. They acted not anymore like humans..." He starts to explain what he experienced in the hospital on earth... Michael walks through a hallway in the hospital. He walks in a room, that looks like a audience room. There are windows and Michael can see through them. Behind the glasses is the operation room, where he got his surgery. A window is bursted. The hole is big enough that he can jump through it. But as he approaches the hole... his head starts to hurt and the rooms comes alive. He sees himself on the table. The doctors are burrowing their hands through his open stomach. His guts are rolling to the ground. Alma appears near his head and she approaches him. He can hear himself screaming. Suddenly, the hallucination stops and a human-like things grabs him and pulls him through the hole. He falls on his back and he let out a grunt of pain. The human-like thing crawls on the wall and looks to Michael. His face is bandaged, just a eye sticks out through the bands. It wears trousers and his skins has several bleeding cuts. A abomination. It grunts and crawls out of Michaels field of view. He stands up. The room is stained with blood. But then he sees something unfamiliar. There are words. Everywhere, written with blood. The words are ‘Can He See?’. Suddenly, a abomination jumps at him. Michael can barely keeps on his feets. He starts to punch in the face of the abomination. It screams in anger and jumps away from Michael... *BOSH!* *SHZIK!* Michael shoots the abomination with his combat shotgun. A empty, smoking shotgun-case falls to the ground. Another abomination crawls through a door to Michael. *BOSH!* *SHZIK!* The upper body half of the abomination is ripped apart from the shrapnels of his combat shotgun. He switches to his submachine gun and aims at the next abomination. He squeezes the trigger slightly and a fast rhytm of loud thunderclaps occurs. The next one is again no problem. After he finished off two other abominations, he walks to a door, which is blocked by a table. He kicks the table away, so that the door can be openen. Then he walks through the door, continuing his escape from this hospital filled with horror... **** “Oh... my...” whisper Celestia horrified. A single tear rolls down her cheek. Then she looks to Point Man and Michael and says “I don’t let Armacham doing this to my little ponies.. and to you two. Please, stay at the castle and protect us...” Michael says “Of course!” Point Man says flatly “Okay. I really want to kick Armacham’s ass!” Earth, Fairport, Armacham Underground Facilities “WHAT? Point Man and Michael Becket are working together with a fucking horse?” exclaims Daniel. He looks stunned at the computer screen and listens to the report of Replica Commander Echo-1. They established a video channel through the portal, so the Replica Commander doesn’t have to be in Daniel’s office. “Yes. The subjects are located in a castle, in a unknown town. It looks like the world is populated by intelligent equines creatures. I think their technology is not advanced like ours, Sir!” says the Replica Commander. Daniel leans back in his chair and thinks for a while. Then he says “You said that their technology is not advanced like ours, right?” “Yes, Sir!” “Then I want you to show them our technology... You know what I mean! Shoot when they shoot upon you. Minimize casualties. Do not shoot at unarmed creatures. And use the Black Hawk Helicopter! Take the horse thingy as a hostage and bring it here!" commands Daniel. “Yes! How many Soldiers should I take, Sir?” asks the commander. “That’s your decision, Commander. Any questions?” “No, Sir!”

All of its content belongs to Hasbro Inc.I don't own the F.E.A.R. game series, characters, names, places, story etc. All of its content belongs to Monolith Production Inc. **** Interval 04- Blackout Michael’s cell phone rings. It’s the alarm clock. He wakes up and pushes a button on his phone. Then he looks on the battery power. Still 100%. Michael is surprised. Maybe the teleportation increased the power of the battery. He stretches himself and steps out from his bed. Then he wears on his combat suit, takes his pistol and his auto-shotgun and walks out from his chamber. His duty as a Elite Royal Guard/Royal Task Force member starts early in the morning, at 6 o’clock. He walks through a corridor. To his surprise, Princess Luna walks through the corridor up to him and says “Good morning, Michael. You’re up so early?” “Yes, but I would ask you the same...” says Michael. Princess Luna chuckles and says “Well, I’m the Princess of the night and I’m responsible for watching over the sleeping ponies. Literally, I’m the guard of the night. And I’m heading now to my chamber, to sleep over the day.” Michael says “So that means, you rushes through the dreams of your subjects? And take care of the safety in the night?” “Yes!” “You’re stealing my job!” says Michael dramatically and points a finger at her. They both are laughing. “Do you want to lead me to my chamber?” asks Luna. “Yes.” They are walking side-by-side to her chamber. One of Luna’s female night guards, Midnight Blossom, stands next to the door, bows to Princess Luna and salutes to Michael. Princess Luna says to Midnight “Good, job, Midnight Blossom. Take free for the rest of the day!” “Thanks you very much, your highness!” says Midnight Blossom and bows again to Luna, “I wish you a very...” She never manages to finish her sentence. A black humanoid invisible thing falls from the ceiling on the back of Midnight Blossom. -Music (Please open a new Tab)- With one hand, it grabs the mane of Midnight Blossom, with the other hand it cuts through the throat of the night guard with one fast move of his arm. Detached on the arm is a razor-sharp long knife. The head of Midnight Blossom is instantly cutted off from her body. Just in this moment, the invisible thing becomes visible. A Replica Assassin. Blood splashes in the face of Luna. The Replica Assassin holds the head in his left hand, before it jumps at the wall, then jumps from the wall over Michael and Princess Luna and runs away from them. Michael spins around and shoots a load of shrapnels at the Assassin’s back. *BOSH!* But it doesn’t damage the assassin much. It stumbles a little but it keeps running and disappears around a corner. “Shit, we can’t let that thing running around...” says Michael, but then he realizes that Luna doesn’t response. He turns back to her... She still stands on the place, her pupils shrinks to the size of pinheads. She stares at the headless night guard body, which lies on the ground. Michael knows what comes and he covers his ears... “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!” Luna screams in shock. She doesn’t use her Royal Canterlot Voice, however but her scream is loud as the RCV. Then she jumps at Michael and wrapping her hooves around him. Her whole body is shivering. Michael realizes what she is doing, so she pulls her away from him and says “Not right now! The assassin could be everywhere and...” He is interrupted by Princess Celestia, who heard the scream in her chamber and she teleported herself to them. “What is going on?!” She gasps at the sight of the headless cadaver of Midnight Blossom, blood still spurting out from it’s open throat... “That was a Replica Assassin. I’m glad that Luna wasn’t his target...” mutters Michael. They are stepping into the room of Princess Luna. Suddenly, they all can hear a approaching flapping sound. Michael recognizes instantly what the source of the sound could be. The princesses are galloping up to Luna’s balcony and looking out. They are confronted by the sight of a black thing, which approaches the castle from the south. A Armacham Helicopter. But the princesses never saw one before. “Michael! What’s this?” says Princess Celestia worried. “That’s... a Helicopter! Shit! Princesses, the Replica Soldiers will attack the castle!” exclaims Michael. He activates his comlink and establishes connection to Point Man “Come in! We have a little problem here!” Point Man says “Yes, I know. A Helicopter! With sixteen Replica’s inside!” “Fuck!” yells Michael and starts to run to Point Man’s direction. After a while, he can hear three bursts of Point Man’s AR through the corridors of the castle. “What happened?” asks Michael. “That bitch of a Assassin tried to kill me... but I was faster,” says Point Man through his comlink. Suddenly, Michael can hear some windows bursting. He finds cover behind a corner and perks his head around the corner. Four Replica’s are lowering himselves down with ropes. “What are they doing?” Michael turns around his head fast and looks in the shocked faces of Princess Luna and Princess Celestia. They followed him. “What the fuck are you doing here? Hide somewhere!” whispers Michael. Princess Celestia opens her mouth to say something, but she is interrupted by a voice... “Squad, check that out!” commands one of the Replicas. -Music (Please open a new Tab)- Michael takes out a grenade, pulls the pin out and throws it to the group of Replica’s. As they are spotting the grenade, one of them shouts “Grenade! Take cover!”, all Replicas are jumping away from the grenade and lying on the ground, protecting their heads with their hands... *BASH!* “It comes from there!” exclaims a Replica. Michael leans outfrom his corner and shoots three loads of his shotgun. He hits a Replica, who shouts “I’m hit! I’m hit!”. “Suppressive fire!” Michael jumps back to his cover, before a bullet flies past his head. He hears the sonic boom it caused. Then a orchestra of thunderclaps occurs. The Replicas are shooting at Michael’s cover, but to no avail. The princesses are screaming in shock. Michael turns to them “Stop screaming and listen to me! Tia, bring me my AR! And Luna, you teleport yourself to your room and stay there!” Luna says “But... I...” “Stay! There! If you want, you can have my pistol to protect yourself. But stay in your room, dammit!” He says it in a commanding tone, like the princesses would say it. Celestia takes a deep breath, closes her eyes and starts to concentrate... *PING!* She disappears in a white flash. Michael unholsters his pistol, takes out some spare ammo and gives the objects to Luna. She takes them with her telekinetic and examines them. But before Michael can say something, she disappears in a blue flash. *PING!* “Oh great, and I didn’t told her how to use a pistol...” mutters Michael. *PING!* Princess Celestia appears in a white flash, holding Michael’s AR in her telekinetic grip. He takes and says “Thank you... now hide yourself somewhere! What are you waiting for? Leave!” Princess Celestia says “Okay, but please be careful... I don’t want to lose you... again.” *PING!* Michael activates his comlink and says "I need backup! I will finish the squad off, but there are maybe more!" Point Man says "Roger that. Over and out!" Then Michael turns around and jumps from his cover... Slow-mo On "Fuck!" yells one of the Replicas. Michael aims at him and shoots a burst from his AR into the the head of the Replica. He screams in pain and falls to the ground. Then Michael literally pumped 10 bullets into the next Replica. He moves to the next Replica and roundhousekicked him. He kills the last one by switching his weapon to his autoshottie and shoots three shrapnel loads... *SPLAT!* The upper body of the Replica is ripped apart. The organs are smashed by the shrapnels, the pieces are sticking on the wall. The head falls to the ground and rolls to the feets of Michael. Slow-mo Off Michael looks at the mess. Then he takes the weapons which are lying on the ground. At least he gets some spare ammo for his AR and a Combat Shotgun. Suddenly, Point Man shouts through his comlink "Fuck, there's a heavy! I repeat, a Heavy is inside the castle! With some sort of a new Penetrator, which fires hot flechettes!" “Where are you?” “In the corridor which leads to Princess Celestia's door. I think the Heavy tries to get in there! Aaah shit! *AR Burst*” comes from his comlink. Michael starts to run to Point Man’s direction. He runs around the corner, to spot the Heavy. Point Man is behind a table, several red glowing flechettes are piercing through the desk. Michael pulls the pin from a shock grenade and throws the grenade at the Heavy... *BASH!* *FIZZLE!* The Heavy falls on his knees, shivering over it’s whole body. Point Man and Michael are opening their fire. They are literally pumping magazines of bullets in it, because after a while, they have to reload. Suddenly, the Heavy, falls to the ground, unmoving. Dead. Michael sighs in relief, walks over to Celestia’s door and knocks at it “Tia? Are you in...” *PING!* “... there... *vomit*” Michael holds himself with his hands on his knees and vomits on the ground Celestia teleported him into her room, but she instantly regrets it as she sees that Michael can’t handle with teleportation “Oh, sorry Michael! I didn’t want to do that!” Michael stands straight and shoots a annoyed glare at Celestia. She rushes to him, trying to hug him as an act for excusing. But Michael dodges her ‘attack’ and says “No need for excusing, just never do that again!” “Okay” Again, the sound of the Armacham Helicoptes lures them to look out from a window. The Helipter hovers above the part of the castle, where the throne hall is. Eight Replica Soldiers are lowering themselves down with ropes and smashing the big windows. Then they are jumping through the open windows and disappearing in the hall... “That’s wonderful!” exclaims Michael and runs to the door, which is locked. Michael doesn’t have the time to ask Celestia to open the door, so he just shoots the lock with his combat shotgun... *BOSH!* *SHZIK!* “Sorry Tia! Take it from my wage!” exclaims Michael, opens the door and moves to Point Man, “Let’s go to the throne hall, there are more of them!” They both are running down the hallway, to the doors of the throne room. Princess Celestia follows them. As they are in front of the door, they are stopping, to listen through the doors to the Replicas which a re inside the hall. No sounds... (Stop Music Here and open this in a new Tab!) “What’s going on?” asks Michael and moves his hands to the handle of the door... Point Man takes some steps back and slightly bumps at Celestia. He has a very bad feeling. Michael opens the door and rushes in it. He gasps as he spots the scene... Celestia shrieks in horror and Point Man just finds cover at the corner of the doorway. Alma, in her children form, holds all Replicas and some Royal Guards at their throats with her telekinetic. They all are taken by surprise from her appearing. The Replicas and the Royal Guards are grunting in pain. Alma chuckles, she enjoys their struggling. With all sudden, every living being in the throne hall, with the exception of Michael, explodes in a bloody shower. *SPLATCH!!!* Guts, smashed organ pieces, shattered bones and blood are flying wildly through the hall, leaving thick, slimy red stains on the walls and throne. Then a explosion at the place where Alma stands occurs. Michael is hurled against a wall. “MICHAEL!!!” shrieks Celestia, but she doesn’t runs up to him. He falls from the wall to the ground, unmoving. Alma just chuckles again and bounces up to Michael, almost like Pinkie Pie, while purring out a random tune. Like she didn’t nothing... Just as she almost jumps on the unconscious Michael, she dissolves in thin dust.... (Stop Music Here!) *SLAP!* Again, Point Man slaps Michael in his face, to wake him up. Just as Michael opens his eyes, Point Man holds his hands up and shows him four fingers and asks “How many fingers do you see?” To Michael’s response, he shows Point Man again his middle finger. Point Man groans and says to Celestia, who stands at the other side of Michael “See? He’s fine!” Michael stands up and looks at the mess. The whole throne hall has a new color. Red. And it smells awful. Bloodstained bones and skulls are lying on the ground. A pony skeleton, the eyes are still in it’s skull, hangs over Celestia’s wet throne. A ripped human body lies against a wall, it’s guts are spilling over the ground. It’s just a gruesome sight. And Celestia can’t use her throne now for a while... “I think our lovely little girl is on rampage...” mutters Michael. Celestia let out a quiet sob. She worried about Michael a lot. And she developed feelings for him. Even when he’s a totally different species, she likes him more than... whatever. And they all are threatened everytime by Alma or by her apparitions. And Celestia is frightened about the thought of losing Michael. A long time ago, she was together with a Royal Guard. He cared about her, like Michael cares about her now. Not in the same way, but he makes feel Celestia safe. Her former lover was killed by a demonic creature. Even as his life bleeds out, he proved his love to her... But Michael is different. He protects her in a more aggressive way. He seems to doesn’t care about his own life. And that is the thing what makes Celestia frightened. Before she can tell her love to him, he might be gone... “Now we should go to Luna, to look after if she’s okay!” says Michael, turns around and walks past Princess Celestia, who stares at him. He notices her starin, but he doesn’t mind. Instead, he jogs up to Lunas room and opens the door. Celestia trots up behind him. *POW!* Michael stumbles a little and he moves his left hand to his chest. “LUNA? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” shouts Celestia. Luna shoots at Michael in shock. “...OH NO. I’M SO SORRY!!!” cries Luna and collaps on the ground, weeping. “Hey... don’t be worried! It didn’t harm me... but it hurts!” groans Michael. To his luck, his SK4 kevlar vest holds the bullet back. But a nasty blue stain is on his chest at the place where the bullet landed. He walks to Luna and takes away his pistol from her and says “You are not safe for using firearms!” Celestia let out a loud sigh, then she says “Luna, if you use a pistol again, I will banish you to the moon again. And Michael...,” she turns to him,”If you give my sister again a weapon, I will banish you to the moon, too!” Michael says “If you do this... I’ll die... but okay, I’ll not give Luna again a firearm! Sorry for this!” As Michael says “I’ll die”, she winced slightly at this. Then she says “Please... stay alive” I need you... she thinks... Earth, Fairport, Armacham Underground Facilities “What?!” shouts Genevieve, “The group didn’t manage to capture that freakin' horse? But how?” “Yes, the two subjects Michael Becket and P1 wiped out the whole group, Sir!” says Replica Commander Echo-1. Genevieve thinks for a while, then she says “Well, we will send them a ultimatum. If they don’t comply... please start Order-1337! You know what that means!” “Yes, Sir!”

The throne hall is clean again, with the help of Princess Celestia's telekinetic they were able to clean the mess within a hour. "Yes...," says Michael. He and Point Man are in his room. Point Man examines the weapon storage of him and says "The particle weapon and the ASP Rifle are my most favourite weapons." "There are more of them in the Dark Signal APC," says Michael. Point Man says "Are you fucking kidding me? On this world is a APC?" "Long story...," says Michael. Suddenly, a knock on the door occurs. "Come in!" yells Michael. The door opens and Princess Luna steps in "Michael? My sister wants to speak with you. Now. She's in her room." Michael stands up and says "Okay, but about what she wants to speak?" "It's personal." Michael walks out from his chamber, through various hallway, to Princess Celestia's room. He knocks on the door and steps in "Hello, Tia! I'm here!" She sits on her bed on her haunches and smiles to him. "Hello, Micky. Yes, I want to tell you something...," she seems a little bit nervous, "Well, you did so much for us, espacially me. You saved us several times and you was there for us when we need you. Before I sended you with the mane six to the old ruins, I developed feelings for you... and I want to say that... that..." "Spit it out," says Michael. "... I love you," whispers Celestia and looks into Michael's dark grey eyes, "...and I hope you feel the same..." BAM. This answere slaps in the face of Michael like a melee attack from a Replica Soldier. He raises a eyebrow. Aww...shit... but there's a little problem... thinks Michael. He takes a deep breath and asks "Tia, can I sit next to you?" "Yes, of course!" she speaks in a joyful voice. Michael sits next to her and moves his hands together. Then he says "Tia, I respect your feelings and I can't blame you for that. But there's something I said days ago..." "Yes you said that you don't want to have special someponys... But I don't care!" says Celestia. "Mmmh... okay then I will say it right into your face," he turns his head to her face... and says it... "I don't love you," says Michael, "Of course I have feelings for you. But they are not for sure romantical. So sorry, Tia, if I had hurt your feelings." Celestia' face changes... "...Leave..." whispers Celestia sorrowful, "And take your friend with you... leave the royal guards, and leave the RTF... you are banished from Canterlot. And if you take a step in Canterlot..." Michael can't believe what he just hears "What? For only that I don't love you, you disband RTF and banish me from Canterlot?" "YES,YOU FOOL. LEAVE ME, LEAVE CANTERLOT, LEAVE RTF... LEAVE US!!!" yells Princess Celestia in usuage of the Royal Canterlot Voice (150 decibel, loud as a explosion 5 metres away). Michael doesn't even winces at the Royal Canterlot Voice. He just rubs his ears, because he hears a ringing in them. After the ringing is gone, he says "Really? Are you 100% percent sure about that? Because I'm not the changing-mind-type. I don't care about the consequences!" "YES!!!" Instantly, Michael claps his hands together while standing up and says "Good, closing time!" and rushes to the door. He opens it, walks through the doorway and closes the door behind him. Celestia can hear his steps in the hallway. Suddenly, she says "Oh... no... what I have done?" "Michael!" yells Celestia. No response... "Please come back...," sobs Celestia. She falls on her bed and weeps bitterly... The door to Michael's room opens. Point Man jumps from his chair in surprise. Michael rushes to his cupboard and takes all his weapons. Point Man walks up to the working Michael and asks "Er... what are you doing?" Michael says, while still taking his stuff "I'll tell you the short version... Celestia loves me, I don't love her, she's angry at me and we both should leave Canterlot... here, take the keys of the APC. It parks in the courtyard of the castle. Wait for me there." Michael throws the keys to Point Man, who catches the keys. But he is confused "Okay, I think I have to deal with being jobless... but why moving so fast?" Michael looks up to him and says "Because I really need a vacation..." Point Man nods and runs out from the room, to the APC in he courtyard. Michael continues putting his stuff in suitcases. Suddenly, he can hear hoovesteps behind him and he turns around. Princess Cadance. She opens her mouth to say something, but Michael says "Yeah, Yeah... she loves me, I don't love her, she wants to excuse herself... NO!" And with that, he grabs his suitcases and rushes past a dumbstruck Cadance. But before he leaves, he says "Bye Bye Cadance. And send greetings to Luna!" After 5 minutes, Michael arrives at the APC. Point Man opens the rear hatch for Michael. He takes a seat and straps himself on. The rear hatch closes and Point Man starts to drive through Canterlot. He asks "Okay... where's our destination?" "Ponyville... I LOVE this village..." Suddenly a *BUMP* on the top of the APC occurs. Michael can hear someone yelling "MICHAEL!!! I didn't mean that! Please come back!" It's Princess Celestia. Michael unstraps from his seat, opens the turret hatch and looks out. Celestia flies next to him, while the APC still drives. She yells over the sound of the APC "I don't care if you don't love me... just come back and protect us! We... I need you!" Michael groans and says "I must protect a crap! You threw me out and I will not change my mind about this! I don't need to be a Royal Guard or a RTF member to live! And Alma and Armacham is your problem now, princess!" Celestia winces noticeable at this. She never heard such words from him. Michael just closes the hatch. He sits back in his seat and straps himself on again. Then he burrows his face in his hands and sighs loudly... Ponyville, 5 hours later, Twilight's library Twilight stands in her kitchen, preparing a meal for the evening. It consists of various salads, tomatoes and daisy. Suddenly, the windows are starting to vibrate slightly. After some seconds it stops and a hydraulic sound occurs, followed by voices. Twilight trots out from her library and she walks around it. At first she let out a gasp of shock, then another one of joy. "Guys, you're back!" she bounces, like Pinkie Pie, around Michael and Point Man. They parked their APC several metres behind her library. Michael carries a combat shotgun on his back and Point Man has a pistol on in his holster. This weapons didn't fit in the suitcases or ammo boxes, because they are full. Michael says "I hope you don't mind that we parked our APC behind your library..." and he scratches his head. "Of course I don't mind. I'm so happy to see you again. How long you two will stay in Ponyville?" says Twilight. "Uhm... can we talk about that inside, if it's okay for you?" asks Michael. "Yes, of course! I will make some tea," says Twilight. They are sitting on chairs, everyone sips on their tea. Michael says "Like I told it to him," he points at Point Man, "I will say it to you. Okay, Celestia said that she loves me, I don't love her, she got angry at me and threw us out and now we are here!" Twilight spits out her tea in shock and exclaims "WHAT? Do you know what that means?" "Yes, she will force me to come back... but...," he takes out his shotgun and slides the pump of the shotgun back and forth (*SHZIK!*). A grin appears in his face. Twilight knows what he thinks and yells "MICHAEL! Get this idea out from your head!!!" Michael starts to laugh "Don't worry! Just kidding! Of course I wouldn't do this... although..." Twilight takes a deep breath and says "This wasn't funny..." *PING!* Twilight stands up from the couch, trots to the door and opens it with her telekinesis. Outside stands Princess Luna. She steps in the library. "Good Evening, Twilight Sparkle...," she spots Michael and Point Man, "... and a Good Evening to you two." "Oh... hello Luna. What brings you to Twilight?" asks Michael. "A ultimatum, sended right through a window in a rocketshell..." says Luna, "It's from the company Armacham and they wrote that Princess Celestia should work with them together. If she doesn't comply, then Armacham would do something very gruesome to her folk..." "And, did she comply?" asks Point Man. "Of course not. She would have to leave Canterlot. And then she asked about you two... especially you, Michael," she takes some steps to him, "Please, come back. She is not the Tia anymore I know..." "Nah... I don't think that I will come back so fast. I will think about that, just give me some time, okay?" says Michael. Princess Luna seems being satisfied with his answere and she says "Good, but pleace take the right decision... I will leave you now, Goodbye all!" "Goodbye!" they are saying in one unison. *PING* "I hate that sound..." mutters Michael. Twilight chuckles and says "So... where do you want to sleep? In the basement? On the couch?" "Nonono... our lovely APC has enough room for three and...," says Michael, but Twilight cuts him off "I INSIST that you two will sleep in my library!" "Hmpf... okay..." mutters Michael. Canterlot, Princess Celestias Castle "Why I didn't just accepted that he doesn't love me? Now he's gone. And it's all my fault!" cries Celestia. She sits on her throne. *PING!* Princess Luna appears in front of her and says "Good news, sister. He says that he will think about coming back, but he needs some time." Princess Celestia is satisfied with this answere and says "Okay... well, it's pretty late. Do you want to lead me to my room, sister?" "Of course!" Celestia stands up and walks to the door. As they are opening the door, Celestia looks to Luna, as she just dissolves in thin dust... -Music (Please open a new Tab)- Princess Celestia looks panicked around her and yells "LUNA?". The hallway is empty and she turns around to look back to her throne hall... she looks right into the mangled face of Shining Armor. Just as she screams in shock, the door to her throne hall slams shut, locking in the crippled Shining Armor in the throne hall. She collects herself together and tries to open the door with her telekinesis, but to no avail- the door doesn't budge. Taking some steps back, she looks to her left and right. Both ends of the hallway are blocked by a wall. Suddenly, these walls are moving through the hallway to Celestia. She screams in fear and imagine her garden in her head, to teleporting herself out. But nothing happens. She closes her eyes. Tears are falling down from her face. Just as the walls touching Celestia's body... FLASH She opens her eyes. Darkness. Pure darkness. With some fireplaces here and there. And her vision is blurred. Celestia starts to hyperventilate. Her panic is on the highest point she ever had in her life. And it becomes worser... *SCREEEECH!* Celestia spins around. Several legless creatures with yellow glowing eyes are emerging from the farthest point of the darkness around her. She tries to summon a telekinetic beam... her horn just emits some harmless sparkles. Then she tries to use the option to fly away. She clenches her back muscles... but she doesn't leap up in the air. She looks at her back. She expects wings... but to her horror, there are just two bleeding stubs on her back. No wings... The creatures are approaching at a alarming speed. She cries and screams at once. Never ever she is so frightened like before. Suddenly, the fireplace are moving up, the creatures are doing the same, too. She instantly feels what that means. She is falling. Her legs are waggling helpless in the air. She lose her crown while falling... in a large pool, filled with blood. She emerges at the surface and spits out the red life-juice. More panic overflows her senses. Then she vomits in the pool. She can't holds herself on the surface. Of course, Alicorns are able to swim. They are very good swimmer. But she's on the edge of fainting. And if she faints, she will drown in the pool. Suddenly, the height of the blood-surface seems to move down. The blood is draining away. To her luck. She lies on the ground of the pool, bloodstained and panting heavily. The tiles of the pool are changing their colour to black. Her vision isn't blurred anymore. She is back in darkness. After some seconds, her eyes are penetrated by a bright light. She stands up and looks around. She stands in a town. It can't be Canterlot or Ponyville, because the houses are pretty high and big. She knows that city, but she doesn't know the name right now. Turning around, she looks at the backs of ponies. MANY ponies. She stands behind a large crowd of ponies. They all are facing a large stage. On the stage stands a table and at the table stands a familiar blue alicorn. Her sister Luna. Luna yells something to the crowd of ponies but her voice is somehow muffled. And Celestia spots something, that send her a shiver right down her spine. All ponies don't have a face. Instead of eyes, facial expressions or something that builds up a face, their faces are just empty, like a empty sheet of paper. Luna's face is empty, too. Princess Celestia hears steps behind her and she turns around. "Take your positions!" Eight Replica Soldiers are approaching the crowd from behind. They are equipped with weapons, that even Celestia didn't saw before. At first it's a firearm. Big firearms. Celestia can see that the ammunition comes from a little box, which is attached on the underside of the weapon. The cartridges are coming out from the box and they are linked together like a chain. Their weapons are having just one muzzle, but it's a little bit longer than the muzzle of Michael's AR. Michael... "Wait for my signal!" "What are they doing?" thinks Celestia. With one snap in her brain, she knows what are they planning... they wouldn't... No... just SHOOT innocent ponies. "OPEN FIRE!!!" "NOOO!!!" screams Celestia... and finds herself in marketplace of ponyville. She is totally confused what just happened. Looking around, she doesn't find anything out of ordinarys... except that the ponies aren't having faces, too. Every pony is doing it's job, and it seems to be a normal, sunny day in the town. Celestia looks up to her castle which stills stands at the mountain. But it looks different. Before she recognizes what is different on her castle, the whole ground starts to shake. Everypony let out a muffled scream. On some places, the ground opens and some blue flashes are coming out. Then every window on every building bursts. Celestia falls on her haunches. *BLAASH!!!* A very bright flash distorts her vision for a moment. She looks up the castle. Or what is left of it... a very big mushroom-like cloud emerges from the place where her castle stood once before. The sky is dark brown and the sunlight is blocked by dark clouds. A loud, deep humming sound occurs. The pressure-wave approaches Ponyville. Ponies are running around in panic. A sharp wind blows through Celestia's eternal flowing mane. Then ponyville is hit by the full strength of the pressure wave. Every house, every tree, every... pony... is ripped apart from the force of the wave. Celestia is smashed against a building, before she feels that some bones are bursting in her body. She screams... Suddenly, in all that chaos, a humanoid figure appears in front of her. It's naked and in a mangled shape. Alma. She leans forward to the heavily bleeding Celestia and whispers in her ear... "This... Will... Happen..." "No..." whispers Celestia. "This... Is... The... Future..." FLASH "AAAAAAAAAAHHHGG!!!" screams Celestia and she falls on the floor, hyperventilating. Luna rushes to her sister "Oh my goodness! Tia!" Princess Celestia starts to cry in fear and shock. Then a hiccup stops her crying at short intervals. A Royal Guad rushes up them and says "Your highnesses! What happened?" But Celestia doesn't respond to him. Instead, she sobs "I... *hic*... want Michael *hic*... back!" Princess Luna turns to the Royal Guard "We were leaving her throne hall, to lead her to her room. Just as we stepped through the door, she let out this scream..." "Is there something I can help?" asks the Royal Guard. "At the moment... no... Thanks you!" says Luna. The Royal Guard bows and trots away. "Don't leave me, Michael!" whispers Celestia and she stands up. She wobbles a little bit and Luna helps her to her room. Luna covers her shivering sister with a sheet and says "Don't worry. I will visit Michael tonight!"

Luna just appeared out of nowhere in front of him. She trots up to him and says "To clear things up. Why you just leaved us without trying to calm her down?" Michael sits down at a bench (its a dreamworld!) and says "Well, I need just a longer vacation..." "A vacation?" "Yes, in my world, before I ended up here, I was fighting for three days for my life, then I was almost raped by Alma, then I was teleported into this world, then I suffered various hallucinations and defeated Alma's appariations, then the griffons, then I was impaled by a tentacle, then the Replica. And at last Celestia said that she loves me, but I can't love her back because I don't have romantical feelings for her. Do you know how I feel?!" exclaims Michael. Luna lowers her head. She knows now what Michael gone through. But she doesn't know how he feels. "No..." "I feel like I'm a piece of meat!" says Michael. Lunas bursts out in laughter. "What's so funny?" groans Michael, "I meant it serious!" Luna wipes some tears from her eyes with her hoof. Then she says giggling "Okay... I will say that to my sister... it's time for waking up! I will visit now your friend..." "WTF???" Michael opens his eyes. He lies on the couch of the library. He stands up and stretches his body. Some bones are popping in his body. The sun is already raising and he hears a yawn from the upper floors of the library. The sunshine wakes Twilight and Spike up. Michael then hears yelling out from the basement. "EVER HEARD OF PRIVACY?" Point Man beams out from the basement and says "That freakin' U.S. navy blue aldicorny visited me! IN MY MIND! And she didn't even asked!" Michael facepalms and says to himself "Luna, Luna... now she learned to never visits his dreams again..." Twilight hears Point Man's yelling and gallops down the stairs "What happened?!" Point Man looks to her. Twilight takes some steps back in shock as he sees his face. His face shows totally unleashed rage. Point Man exclaims "I was dreaming as suddenly that blue pony-bird-unicorn-princess-of-whatever-thingie appeared in front of me. At first I thougth it was normal but then she said 'Don't worry! I'm really in your dream.'. I couldn't believe what I just heard, so then I shouted Right.Into.Her.Face. 'GET YOUR ASS OUT FROM MY MIND!'. She flown away in shock, then I waked up!" Twilight wears a shocked expression. Then she says "You said... Shouted to her? 'Get your ass out from my mind!'? But why are you so upset? It's her duty to visit other dreams! And everypony likes that!" "Then I am one of those 'ponies' who don't want to be visited. It's absolutely not her business what she can find in my brain!" groans Point Man, "That's just a slump in personal privacy!" Twilight thinks about this statement, then she says "Hmm... in some cases you are right... Well, lets just have our breakfast!" After the breakfast, Point Man and Michael decides to walk around in Ponyville. As they are walking through the streets, almost every pony smiles and waves a hoof to them. "If you want, we can split up and each of us can enjoy his free time alone!" Point Man groans. He is still a little bit upset about the unwelcome guest in his dream. "I will take it as a yes," says Michael, "I will go to Applejack. I miss her pies." As he walks out from Ponyville to Sweet Apple Acres, he can hear a jet sound. But the sound doesn't approach him. He looks up to the sky and spots a rainbow-coloured trail. "Aha... Rainbow Dash..." mutters Michael. He jumps over the fence of the farm and knocks at the door of Applejack's house. After a while, the door is opened by a little filly. Applebloom. "Oh hi Mishel'! Ah'm so happy to see ya'! Ah'm sure ya'r here for a applepy'! Sorry, but Applejack is workin' on tha farm!" says Applebloom happily. Michael is surprised "Yes... but how do you know?" Applebloom giggles "Silly, evrypony comes here for a pie and..." *BOOOM!* A great rainbow-coloured explosion occurs in a height of 300 metres in the sky. Then the explosion is surrounded by rainbow-coloured rings. Applebloom's jaw drops "A Sonic Rainboom..." Michael turns around and spots the explosion, too. He shrugs and turns back to Applebloom "Well... okay. Now about the Applepie..." Appleboom shakes her head and says "Hm...? Ah... Sorry..." and she trots back into the house. After a while, she comes back with a basket in her mouth. In the basket are three applepies. Michael says "Thank you... how much it costs?" "10 bits, tha' basket is on tha' house!" says Applebloom. Michael gives her 10 bits, says "Goodbye and send greetings to Applejack," and he starts to walk back to the village. On the way, he spots Rainbow Dash trotting up to him. She looks happy. Michael tries to smile but it fails as Rainbow Dash asks him "Aaaaand? What do you think about my Sonic Rainboom?" Michael tries to find the right words, then he says... "I witnessed bigger and louder explosions." Rainbow Dash eyes widen in shock. Then she shakes her head and says "Aww... you're lying!" "No, I'm not lying. I'm just not surprised... do you want a piece of applepie?" and he offers her some applepie. After a while, they both are sitting on a bench the park of Ponyville, eating the applepie. Michael realizes that he bought too much pie and a applepie must be eaten in a fresh state. So he eats the pies together with Rainbow Dash. She asks "The last time I showed you my tricks, you get bored. Why?" Michael swallows a piece of the pie, then he says "That's easy to explain. Your put your tricks in a pointless order. They are cool, of course. But just let us think of music. The parts in the music are put in a harmonic order. While practicing your tricks, just think you compose a piece of music. Start with something slow, then go faster. In the middle of your show gear up in overdrive. And in the end do your sonic rainboom." Her eyes are lighten up. She never hears this tip before. "Thanks you very much! Do you think I will become a wonderbolt? They are the best flyers in whole Equestria!" says Rainbow Dash. "If your tricks are good enough, then just send a application to them!" explains Michael while taking a bite in the pie. "Application? Just send a application, that's all?" asks Rainbow Dash dumbstruck, "But... how I write a application?" "Inform yourself, Just go to the library, borrow a book about writing formal letters and..." says Michael but he is interrupted by Rainbow Dash "Uuu... egghead stuff!" Michael groans and says "Even the Wonderbolts had to do egghead stuff to become famous!" Rainbow Dash ears are dropping as she hears this. She opens her mouth to say something but suddenly they both are hearing panicked screams. Applejack and Big MacIntosh are galloping down a hill, screaming all the time. "A DRAGON! A DRAGON!" yells Applejack. And then a big figure flies up behind the hill... A Armacham Helicopter. It flies directly up to Ponyville. Michael stands up and activates his comlink to Point Man "Hey, come in! We have a little problem here!" Point Man answers him "Spot that 'problem', too! I am on my way to the library!" Rainbow Dash looks in awe and fear at the flying thing. Applejack stops in front of Michael, panting heavily. She gasps "We must inform tha' princesses... Huuuff!" Big MacIntosh keeps running to Ponyville. "What is that thing, Michael?" asks Rainbow Dash. But Michael doesn't answere her question. He stands up and says "You can have the rest of the applepies! I must go now!" And he sprints back to the library... Applejack follows him. **** Five minutes ago **** Point Man's PoV Point Man walks through Ponyville. He heads for nowhere, just walking around for searching tactical position if the town is under attack. Suddenly, a pink blur beams up to him. Point Man instantly unholsters his pistol and aims at... Pinkie Pie, who stops as she realizes that he thinks he is attacked. She giggles "Don't worry! I'm... WE are here to cheer you up, you silly! I saw that my cupcakes didn't make you smile, so now we are trying a different way to make you smile!" Point Man groans and holsters his pistol "You can try, but it will not work..." She starts... Youtube Video Point Man looks dumbstruck at the scene before him. Pinkie Pie smiles to him and asks "And... are you happy?" Suddenly, Point Man hears a familiar sound. He turns to the source of the sound. A Armacham helicopter. It heads to the library. He starts to sprint, leaving a stunned and heavily shocked Pinkie Pie. Not even her Smile song makes him smiling. Point Man hears Michael through his comlink "Hey, come in! We have a little problem here!" He says back "Spot that 'problem', too! I am on my way to the library!" In less than 10 seconds, he arrives at the library. He bursts through the door, unholsters his pistol. A feminine voice asks "Where's Michael...?" **** Michael's PoV The first he notices at the library is the golden chariot. He bursts open the doors and spots... the princesses, Twilight Sparkle, Point Man and Spike. Two Royal Guards are with them. The Royal Guards are saluting to Michael as he steps into the library. Princess Celestia stands up from the couch and says "I'm so sorry, Michael..." "Shut up and listen. A helicopter flies to Ponyville. I don't know what they want but we should prepare for the worst!" says Michael and walks to the couch, taking his Combat Shotgun. Luna trots up to him and snarls "How DARE you to say 'Shut up' to a princess?!" Michael just shrugs. The helicopter approaches the library. But instead of landing or attacking the tree, three passengers are lowering themselves with ropes down, three unarmed Replica Soldiers, one of them doesn't wear a helmet. This Replica says something to the other Replicas, which are nodding. The Replica walks to the door of the library without the other Replicas. "Lock that door!" commands Princess Celestia. One of the Royal Guards, a unicorn, locks the door with his telekinesis. The Replica tries to open the door but it doesn' budge. A grin appears in his face and what happens then, that isn't expected by anyone, not even by the princesses or by Michael and Point Man. The Replica just walks through the door like it's not there... Everyone can get a good sight at the intruder. He has short brown hair. A little round scar is on his forehead. His eyes are grey. And to their horror, red smoke engulfes the body of the man. Point Man recognizes instantly who the man is. "What the hell... I thougth I killed you!" says Point Man annoyed. The man smiles "Yes... my brother. You killed me. I didn't like that. But I am reborn." "Who are you?" asks Princess Celestia. The man looks up to her and says "Forgive me my rudeness. My name is Paxton Fettel and I am his brother. I am here to send a message to you, Princess Celestia." She takes some steps back "How... know you my name? And what for a message?" "Nothing is impossible for a son of Alma," he looks up to the rest and closes his eyes, "And this is Luna, your sister. Huh... I feel another personality in her. It wants to break out. And this is Twilight Sparkle, your... faithful student. And this is Spike, her assisstant. The last one is... Applejack..." Princess Celestia is surprised and shocked at once. She feels great might in him... even more than in Discord. Mind-reading... He opens his eyes and says "Now I will say the message. Princess Celestia, this is you last chance. Come with me, work together with Armacham and nothing will happen to your folk. If you refuse... well, let's just say you will regret your refusing!" Princess Celestia's face shows anger "If you dare to hurt any of my subjects... I always take care of my subjects! Royal Guards! Arrest him!" The pegasus Royal Guard nods and rushes up to Paxton... "Oh, you wanna play the hero? Okay!" he says smiling and he stretches his right arm to the Royal Guard. A red beam emerges from his hand and holds the Royal Guard at his throat. The princesses are gasping in shock. Point Man shouts "Stop that! Let him down!" But Paxton just smiles and says "I really want to know how it feels to be in the body of a mystical creature..." And with that, he dissolves in red dust. The dust flies into the body of the Royal Guard. He falls to the ground, shaking his head to the sides. Then he stops. Red smoke comes out from the body of the Royal Guard. Princess Celestia can't believe what she just saw... she asks "... F-Ferrum (that's the name of the Royal Guard)... are you alright?" "Hehehe... I'm not Ferrum...anymore," speaks the Royal Guard with the voice of Paxton. Everypony gasps in shock. Michael just watches the scene. Point Man just facepalms. "Mmmh... that's how it feel to be a pegasus... but I feel...naked," says the Royal Guard. "Let him free!" commands Celestia. The possessed Royal Guard smiles... "Okay!" Point Man whispers to Michael "Let's find cover behind the couch... this is going to be real dirty!" and they both are crouching behind the couch... A red spider-web like muster appears on the fur of the Royal Guard. His eyes are spilling out... *SPLAT!* The whole body of the Royal Guard explodes, sending blood, guts and crushed bone pieces in every direction through the library. Even the princesses are soaked with the red mass. Twilight and Applejack are starting to hyperventilate, Spike faints and the princesses are letting out a yelp of fear. Then Paxton materializes at the place where the Royal Guad exploded. He smiles "He's free!" and he starts to laugh. Michael and Point Man didn't get hit by the gore. They both are standing up and looking at the mess. Paxton stops laughing as the another Royal Guard gets the order from Celestia to pin him down with a spell. The unicorn Royal Guard starts to summon energy in his horn... and he stops with that as Paxton holds the unicorn's throat with the same red beam, but this time with his left hand. Then he holds up his open right hand and he clenches this hand to a fist... *SPLAT!* The unicorn meets the same gruesome death like the pegasus but without the possession. The Princesses are falling on her haunches in shock. Paxton turns to them "I could do this the same on you with no problems..." As Michael hears this , he exclaims "When you even think of...!," he rushes up to Paxton and lungs out with his right arm, to break his nose... and he finds himself holding by Paxtons red telekinetic beam. Princess Celestia yells "IF YOU DARE TO HURT HIM...", stands up and gallops up to Paxton. She lowers her head to shoot a great telekinetic beam at Paxton with her horn. The last time she did this was as she fought Queen Chrysalis. But like Michael, Paxton stops her summoning by holding her at her throat with his telekinetic. "I'm not finished, yet!" says Paxton, "So, you come with me or not, princess? It would be a shame if I kill a... goddess!" Celestia struggles in his telekinetic grip and says "...No!" Suddenly, Paxton stops holding Michael and Princess Celestia. "Good, then it's not my business anymore... I wish you all a... wonderful day. Especially you, brother and Michael Becket... this is propably not the last time we see us...," says Paxton and he turns around. Then he takes a deep breath and says "A war is coming, I've seen it in my dreams. Fires sweeping through the earth, bodies in the streets, cities turned to dust." "What?" says Celestia confused. "Retaliation..." says Paxton with a deep voice. Point Man waves with his hands "Yeah, yeah... I already know this fairytale!" Paxton says "Before I forget it... I have something you might want to watch." He opens his pocket and takes out a USB-Flashdrive and throws it to Point Man, who catches it with his right hand. Then Paxton just walks to the locked door and right through it. He spots the chariot and he starts to grin. Turning around and looking to the princesses inside the library, he pulls the pin of a grenade and throws the grenade into the golden chariot... *BASH!* The golden chariot bursts in thousand pieces... A ladder falls from the still waiting helicopter and he climbs up the ladder up. Then the helicopter flies away, back from where it cames... Michael crouches to the panting Celestia and asks "Is everything alright?" "Yes... he didn't hurt me... but how did he find out that I'm a deity?" mutters Celestia. Point Man says "But he could kill you with ease!" "How did he find us?" whispers Luna shocked. Point Man turns to her and says "My freaking brother is able to track down the psychic signs of psionics... that means YOU! Armacham will use him as a detector for psionics. That means you all can't hide from him." Silence. That shocks everypony in the room. Twilight starts to sob quietly. Michael asks "Tia... sorry that I wasn't there for you when you needed me... But I have a question. You are immortal, right? Which type of immortal? The uber-immortality or the just never getting old immortality?" Princess Celestia wipes some tears from her face with her hoof and turns to Michael. She never heard this question before. Then she says "Something with...both...". She can't hold the urge back. Suddenly, she hugs Michael with her wings. And for the first time, Michael wraps his arms around her and pulls her thight on his body... and... And he pulls her up on her legs. She stumbles a little, but Michael keeps her standing. He says "The situation is death-serious. I will go back to the castle and secure you 24/7! Aaah... shit Paxton destroyed your chariot..." and he unwraps himself from her hugging wings. Point Man takes the word "I will go back to the castle, too. We have our APC and we will just drive back! But under one condition...," and he turns to Luna, "Never visit me in my dreams again..." Princess Luna winces slightly and nods. Then Point Man examines the USB-Flashdrive "I wonder what information are on this thing..."

His goggles are scrambling as he spots a familiar little black-haired girl in a red dress. The girl turns around and disappears. He stands up, holding himself at the smashed chariot and starts to walk through the road. The girls appears again, next to another broken chariot. He stumbles a little and a severe pain shoots through his chest. Looking down, he spots a hole in his right chest. Blood leaks out, but he doesn't feel dizzy. However, he covers the hole with his left hand and keeps the blood in his body. He walks further through the road. The houses around him are destroyed, flames are coming through the windows of them. The sky is blood red and the clouds are moving fast. Then he spots a equines skeleton and he walks up to it. It is large, large as he is and has wings and a horn. It's skull has a large hole in it. He realizes that this is a gunshot wound. His goggles are scrambling and he spots the girl at the marketplace of the village. The fountain of the marketplace is missing, there is just a yellow glowing hole at the place of the fountain. The alleyways to the marketplace are blocked with pieces pf buildings, so he realizes that there is no other way than through the hole. As he approaches the hole, the little girl walks to the hole and disappears. He takes a deep breath and jumps in the hole... FLASH Michael opens his eyes, but he closes them immidiately because his eyes are not adjusted to the bright light, yet. After a while he can open his eyes without having problems and he looks around... and then directly into turquoise eyes. "For Celestia's sake, I'm glad that you're awake!" says the female zebra. He looks puzzled in her face... "Well, uhm hello..." he mutters. Then he realized that he doesn't wear his Combat Suit, only his black boxers. Around his chest are several bandages... "Where are my manners, Zecora is my name. If you don't tell me yours, for me it would be a shame...," saya the Zebra. He says "Okay, my name is Michael Becket... what happened?" Zecora then tells him in rhymes how and where she found him. She says that he was near death, but she used medicine herbals on him. The hole in his chest healed up quickly and he can leave whenever he want. He says "Thank you so much for rescuing me, but I have to go now." (Author's note: Sorry, but it's almost impossible for me to make rhymes in english. Any help is welcome.) After a while, he leaves Zecora's hut. He wears his Combat Suit, but a hole is on the chest part. Michael thinks "Mmmh... maybe Rarity can help me with repairing my Suit..." Ponyville, Rarity's Boutique Rarity arrived at her Boutique yesterday. She and her friends Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Twilight could leave the hospital in Canterlot. She thinks about Michael... she decides to distract herself from him, so she continues on her work where she stops some days ago. Suddenly, a knock occurs on her door. "Oh, that's a customer!" she thinks and rushes to the door. She opens it and says "Welcome to my Bo... OH!" She recognizes the creature instantly. It's Spike. "Oh... hello Spike!" says Rarity smiling, "What do you want?" "I want to ask if you need help," says the Dragon, "A new human arrived at our world. He is in Twilight's library and they are talking about a company called 'Amacham'... I get bored so decided to show up here." Rarity says "Of course I need your help. Your claws are really helpful!" Spike smiles and steps through the doorway and Rarity closes the door with her telekinetic. 30 minutes passed and Rarity is still planning a dress as suddenly Spike yells "There's a knock on the door. I will look after that!" "Do it, I'm busy!" yells Rarity back. She can hear the door opens, a loud gasp from Spike and a very familiar voice. She trots out from her room and went downstairs "Who's there, Spikey? *GASP!*" In her boutique stands Michael Becket, scratching the back of his head. "Sorry, that I'm still alive... but could you please help me with... *UNGH!*" says Michael but he is suddenly pinned down by Rarity "Oh Darling, I'm so happy to see you alive!" and she hugs him. Michael looks over to Spike who looks quietly shocked. He wants to be greeted by Rarity in this way, too... "Rarity... I think that another one wants to be hugged, too!" jokes Michael. Spike shocked expression changes to a 'Don't-say-a-word'-expression. Rarity jumps from his chest and asks "What happened? Why are you here?" Michael explains "I was rescued by the lovely Zecora. I'm here because this Suit has a hole... you know what it caused..." Rarity whimpers a little as he said this, then she says "Of course I will take care of that. And don't even think of paying me! The first time goes on the house and I will repair it in 15 minutes, just wait here!" "Thanks... I really want to know who the new guy is!" says Michael. 15 minutes later "Wow, good work Rarity. It looks like on it's first day!" exclaims Michael. Rarity says "Thanks, Darling. Now come, I think the new guy will be happy to meet you!" Rarity, Michael and Spike are walking out from her Boutique, heading to Twilight's library... Ponyville, Twilight's Library "They builded a teleporter?!" exclaims Twilight, "and they will come to Equestria?!?" Point Man says flatly "Yes, and I think they will not be very friendly..." Applejack says "If dey' ar' traing' to hurt us, Ah' will buck their livin' hay of them!" Pinkie Pie just laughs "Maybe a party will make them friendly! Oh I forget to throw for you a party!" and she bounces joyfully through the library. At this moment, Point Man thinks Crap, I feel like I'm in a show for creepy little girls... A knock on the door occurs and the sound of Rarity's voice comes "Darling, it's me and I have someone for you!" Twilight opens the door with her tekekinetic. Point Man sees this and groans "Oh perfect! I'm surrounded by psionic ponies!" Twilight chuckles a little at this and looks back to Rarity and the 'someone'. *GASP!* Twilight's teleports herself to Michael and hugs him. "I thought you were dead!" she sobs. "I'm not easy to kill... and who's the new guy?" says Michael. Twilight stops hugging him and trots over to the new guy. Michael approaches the man and holds a hand over to him... Suddenly, a severe pain shoot through his hand. He let out a grunt of pain. Then he knows who the guy is. "I know who you are!" Twilight's jaw drops, then she says smiling "Oh that's great! For how long?" Michael grabs Point Man at his shoulders. To the ponies surprise, Michael doesn't seem to be happy... in fact, his face shows anger. Michael growls "You... you are her bastard son!" Point Man pushes him away and says angrily "Hey, don't blame me for the actions of my insane mother. I suffered her horror like everyone she threatened!" Twilight, Spike, Applejack, and Rarity are exchanging puzzled looks. Pinkie Pie just smiles, she thinks that this is an act. Then Rarity says "What are you meaning? We don't understand!" Michael turns to the ponies and says, pointing at Point Man (A pun, hurray!) "This man... is Alma's son!" Even Pinkie Pie is heavily shocked at this words...
