I am a robot, a robot of war, and now I have to face...ponies?

Date:3115
Location:ARC (Alien Revival Carrier)
I'm on a mission to destroy an aircraft carrier. But when the Hyper Drive becomes unstable, I'm blown away somewhere else. Apparently a different universe. I don't think I am ready for it though. Soon as I land into the other dimension, I'm in limbo. Being lost, injured, and low on battery wasn't going to help either.

Inflitration

I breached the aliens security. Nothing a little fist to fist couldn't handle. I have four more corridors to go through until I hit the H-Drive. But of course nothing goes in my way. Why should it? I have two waves of aliens running through the corridors. I know how to kill. I done it a thousand times. But this was pushing my limits. I scanned my surroundings to see what could help me. Thankfully, there was a crack in the ceiling, big enough for me to crawl through. Afterwords I followed the ventilation shafts to my destination. The Hyper Drive Room.

No guards were in sight, so I dropped though the vents. After that I started to hack into the H-Drive. Until I heard the charging of a blaster ray behind me. I quickly dived out of the shot. I remember saying I wished for a stronger physique than a small agiler one. Guess I should thank the makers of my body. And combat training. I turned to face my combatant to see it was the general of the operation.

As I glanced at him I withdrew the military weapon strapped to my back and held it in my arms in a defensive position. It seemed as the blast projectile was an alien pistol that my opponent held. It also seemed he didn't have any other weaponry at this moment, so basically this came by surprise. Speaking of surprises, the Alien general launched at me with full speed. I guess he thought we'd do it the old fashioned way. That was until I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. I look down to see a knife stuck inside me, held by the alien. He grinned as he twisted the knife, Amplifying the pain, to make sure I feel it. I keep forgetting I'm a cyborg and still feel pain. It is the year 3115 so I should feel hardly anything at this point. But of course, I do.

Knocking the alien off me, I pull out the knife that was cleverly covered in some sort of poison, which explained my dizziness. Suddenly the ship screams in agony, then I quickly find out why. When I dodged the shot, I left the H-Drive on, letting it become unstable enough until it-

Where Am I?

...Explodes. Wait, what the hell? Where's the ship?! I wake up to find myself floating in a somehow white limbo. Was I dead? Did we win? Is the alien civilization gone?

As I am about to create another question in my head, I feel enormous amounts of pain in my human body parts. I'm not in bad shape, but I lost a lot of fluid. After the pain stopped, more had overtaken my body, as if I was regenerating. Which I simply thought was impossible. I am a 6G-7Y0 prototype cyborg. And by cyborg, I mean I am a complete robot, that has a brain, and small human patches of skin and bone. The 6G-9X13 was the robot that would be a regeneratable prototype. But that would had come out a the year 3236. Guess I'll never find out, unless I get home. As each thought, each question runs through my head, the pain went from enormous, to unbearable. As much as I tried my best to keep my mind off the pain, trying not to make it worse was harder than I thought. It wasn't too soon until I finally passed out only a few moments until I woke up. The light from the sun blinded me, but I was sure someone was around me. Was it the aliens? Did they win? More thoughts were going to pop until I heard a voice.

"Hello? Sir, or whatever you are, are you okay?". It sounded feminine, as a human. Did I come back? I put a hand over my eyes to shield myself from the light, until I realized, I had no hands. Ether the regeneration process (Which I'm still debating on.) failed, or I've been mutilated. I look at my arm (So to say for now) and look at it in disbelief. not only I was mutilated, but my arm bent in the other direction. I did a scan check on my body to see that not only my feet were gone, and my other arm and legs bent the other way as the hand I used to shield my eyes with did, but to see I wasn't human anymore (Technically, I wasn't human in the first place but my physique and body had, changed.) but cybernetic pony organism.

All of these thoughts and the scan happened in 3 seconds, until I realized someone was helping me. Once I had my hand in the right spot, I saw directly what had asked me a question. I've seen some pretty damn weird stuff. But this was to much to bear.

A horse (Let me rephrase that. A HORSE) asked me a question and all I could do was freeze. 20 seconds passed, and I guess it thought I was alright, or I was down right weird, because it left. A purple horse with a horn asked me, a robot a question. Is this a dream, or am I going crazy? Once it left, I got up and looked around for anything to find.

Background music

________________________________________________________________________________

As I enter the household, I can hear the music coming from the upper floor. As I was listening to the unbearable music (Explanation-Robot's hate dubstep and techno. It messes with their hardware. But after awhile they would get used to it.) I thought, "If there's music, there's got to be someone controlling it."

After my thoughts, I started to head upstairs, hearing the beat get louder and louder. I literally thought one of my eardrums were going to pop out. Once I reached the top of the stairs, I looked into the room of where the music was coming from.

Of course a pony was playing it. A white pony with purple shades and cyan-blue hair. But what I found weird was when she (Again, judged by shape.) changed tracks. She used a horn I didn't see as I, er... observed her, to levitate a track onto her machine, then I heard more awful sounds of the same music. I paid too much attention to the music though, that I didn't notice that the pony discovered me in her home. She basically fell over. It was until then when I realized what happened. I decided to help her up, she'd already seen me anyways. Afterwards she spoke something to me. "What the heck are you?!" She basically screeched at me. I sighed and replied "I am a futuristic robot, sent here by some unofficially known source. I am from a distant universe, very different from yours. At first I was in a limbo, when turned into a dusty desert, when it finally resorted to normal woods."

"Okay. Well... I'm Vinyl Scratch, mostly known as DJ PON-3! Nice to meet you, weird robot thing."

"Ah so your a DJ, that explains the," I shuddered for a bit "Disorienting music."

"D-Disorienting? What's that supposed to mean?" I found she began raising her tone. Like a mother with her child.

"Well, according to dictionary, 'Disorienting is-"

"I know what it means! I want to know your point."

"Oh well you see-"

I paused and shook my head. No! This is not the time for you long stories. You need to find out more about this place. You have a idea, but it's going to wallow your ears in shame.

"Hey, do you mind I use your-" I shuddered once more "D-Dubstep?" I asked in disbelief of my own words. She looked confused at me. "Didn't you just say it was disorienting or whatever?" Vinyl asked.

"Yeah sorry but I really need it for something important."

"And that is? Wait don't tell me. A concert!" Vinyl basically squeaked with excitement. All I could do is give myself a facepalm. "No, something more, Important." I sighed as my hoof still rested upon my head. "What can be more important that an epic concert?" Vinyl asked, tilting her head a bit.

"Listen I just need the electrons coming from your music to-"

"Hold on, I'm lost. 'Electrons'?"

I sighed, shaking my head. "Just let me use your music, for something." I finally say in annoyance. "Whatever." Vinyl says as she shrugs. Taking her permission, I take a responsive plug and stick it into the music-creating machine. Taking full control, I reroute all settings into a sound that can charge a dead battery for centuries, at least that or something to show a map of this whole dimension. After imputing the data to my core, I spotted a tiny but see-able map to the corner of my screen (Well, only see-able for me). Then, when I finished making a map, I returned the machine's system to it's original state. "Done" I say finishing. "Dude, what did you do? That was like five minutes." She asked.

"I rerouted your system data to make a map for my core."

"Huh?"

"*Sigh* I made a map!" I say annoyed again. This mare is interesting but lacks inner knowledge. "Oh, can I see it?" She asks.

"Here" I say ask I make a holographic representation of the map. All she says is "Wow! I didn't think my machine could do that."

"Me neither. The map is in good definition too." I add, making her grin, which also makes some sort of squee sound.

"Thanks for your help." I say respectfully. She responds "Thanks for barging in." Although she seemed alright with it. "Come back anytime!" Is all I hear before I leave her home. A nice eccentric mare, added to the list.

______________________________________________________________________

So, after leaving the white mare's house, I headed downtown of Ponyville. Me, totally being a clueless idiot, walked straight through the town, while ponies were screaming and pointing at me while they ran away.

And all I said was, "What's wrong?". After the 3rd time, I realized the problem was me. I quickly dove into an alley way, safely hiding from civilians, and most importantly: Authorities. Let me say, I am not one who can handle steel bars around me while I sit in a cage, and at that they would probably put me in a circus. Hiding away from streets I followed the tiny map looking for anywhere else to go. There was a bridge nearby, crossing into the forest. In there I could manage, because 1) I was in Eco mode so that was useful when I was around millions of trees and 2) I had enhanced instincts, plus I knew how to kill even animals to make food. But there is a problem, I'm a pony now, so I don't think I can Digest meat nor become a carnivore. Oh well; leaves, grass, and whatever else equines eat, I'll survive.

Smirking, I start for the forest, until I stumble upon a weird looking box. It was weird because it was moving. I head for it, my shadow completely covering the box and half the wall. Standing in front of it, I gently tap it.

Nothing.

I shake it a bit.

Nothing. Again.

Finally done with it, I lift it off the ground to find a small orange filly closing her eyes and yelling, "You got me!"-and laughing. After awhile she starts opening her eyes. Oh damn. When they fully opened, They pointed right towards me. 2 seconds passed. 6 seconds passed. Almost 10 full seconds of silence passed until I decided to break it up. "Uh, hey kid." Was all I could say for the moment. And what was left for me was a big scream made by a young filly. Not in the forest. Not in the middle of Ponyville. Right here, in front of me. I started to panic, considering I knew that it would cause unwanted attention. (Well unwanted from me.) I decided to run from the alley, forgetting the forest, the filly, the box, everything. I just ran, far away. Until I went smack right into a bench. Groaning in pain I got up to see it was less of a bench and more of a-...Guard, of some type. "Name." He said to me. I wasn't really in the zone to speak yet, and in return I sputtered "Ahh Yoou a goood?" (I was trying to say 'Are you a Guard'.)

"Sir are you intoxicated?"

"Naaaahh."

"I'm not so sure..."

With that I started to gain back my conscience. I still dizzy I sputter "I'm sorry I-ah, Accidentally bumped (More like rammed.) into a bench. Heh heh."

"That was me." The guard said motionless. Oh. "Oh I'm sorry sir." I say as I started walking away, until the guard stops me.

"I didn't get you name." Pulling on my robotic tail.

"I- Don't have one."

"Fine cyborg. You are under arrest."

"What?!" I say in shock, as he starts chaining me.

"Let's just say you look a bit suspicious."

"Aw come on! I-I have rights!"

"You don't look much like a pony much." And with that he shoves me into some sort of carriage, and we fly away to some magical place called Canterlot.

Fuel

As I looked around for supplies, I heard a beep come from my body. I did a full scan over me to see that I was still a pony, but I was running out on fuel processing.

"Damn my creators for my incompetent storage amount for fuel!" I shouted angrily. Looks like I'm going to be here for awhile. I checked my radar, to see I had to scan the area around myself in order to store it for render data. It went as far as a 5 mile radius. Then checking my compass, I started towards north. Hopefully where-ever I am, north still means the same thing coming from earth.

15 Mins. Later...

The sandy desert turned into earth as I slowly passed swift grass.

Then I started to pass trees, as a idea crossed my mind. I started to buck (As they called it.) into one of the trees to see sap pour from inside. As this continued, I sprouted a tube from my torso, that had acted as a small vacuum, as it began to suck up the sticky sap. Once it entered my core, my mode switched from fuel processor, to economic, which makes me have take a lot of sap from trees to charge myself, but it degenerates slowly. As I gathered enough sap by bucking about 18-19 trees, I darted into a full out sprint. Being a robot gives me the advantages over other hu- I mean ponies.

Pretty soon I found a small town with citizens of the same shape as me. But they aren't cyborg-robots though. I tried to use my skin changer, but it was only set to human, so getting around town isn't going to be easy as I thought it would be. I tried to sneak past buildings but after the 7th, a pink pony spotted me, and then started rambling on about how she (Judging by body shape.) never met, or heard of me. She didn't seem to mind the fact I'm partially half robot, and half...equine. After she finished talking for 4 minutes, she ran (Zoomed more like.) off someplace I wasn't aware of. My recording didn't help. She talked so fast I couldn't understand. Like a hummingbird's wings, they kept beating. Like how she kept talking. Oh well, I just hope that is not how everyone is in this town.

12 Mins. Later...

Every. Single. One. Everyone here are equines. I am going to lose it if this whole planet is a bunch of equines. If there was some sort of radio tower or ELECTRICITY for that matter, then I could scan this whole place and find a way to leave.

Wait a minute...

Scanning...

Okay so there IS electricity in a house nearby. As I enter the household, I hear a very loud-

YES OH MY GOD!!!!

I sigh as I mutter "Let's get this over with."
