Chapters
"You want to hear a story? Well, let's start where we are now. The shit I've gone through just to become human. I even sacrificed my life for a dragon I barely knew, gave him the suit, the responsibility, to save the entire world. His name was Spike. Lucky bastard got attacked by a Ceph ship and survived. Hell, our entire world was being attacked by a bunch of squid fuckers, that didn't come from the stars, like we thought they would, but they hid for millions of years, underground."
"When they came to me with the nanosuit, I sacrificed Laurence Barnes, the man I was, to become Prophet. When my own flesh and blood held me back, I sacrificed that too. Replaced it, like a spare part. Victory costs. Every time, you pay a little more. I saw a glimpse of what's coming and there was nothing left of me to stop it. When the greatest combat machine fails... what do we do then? What do I do?!" Prophet said, showing a invading force of Ceph ships, and a large mechanical tentacle reaching towards the planet through a black hole.
Eight months before...
Spike looked around the church he was in. "Vesa, move that a little to the left. No, my left!"
"Damn boss, you're lucky you have that fuckin' Nanosuit, or I'd kick your ass." Vesa complained, making a different person chuckle.
"Yeah, you taking on a dragon that survive a Ceph invasion of Canterlot, I can already see you cooked, medium rare on a platter, covered in Bar-B-Q sauce." Karlos said, making Vesa groan in annoyance.
"Karlos, why'd you pick this place again? Really digging how I'm doing all the fucking work." Vesa said sarcastically.
"Vesa, do you ever quit your bitchin'?"
"Do you ever get sick of busting my balls?"
"...Point taken."
"Lock it down, both of you. I'm having a wedding in a few days, and I want it to be perfect for AJ. Now quit your shit, and start getting this stuff ready." Spike said, looking at the Two CELL soldiers. "Also, why aren't you wearing normal clothes instead of your old CELL armor? You've been wearing that stuff since the invasion of Canterlot, a few weeks ago."
"We're more at home wearing these. Seeing as how we met wearing these CELL suits."
((What Vesa and Karlos look like.))
"Look, I'm going to get married, just hurry it up." Spike said, rubbing his eyes in annoyance. That, and he was tired, after AJ kept him up all night doing...stuff.
"Boss, where should I put the machinegun?" Karlos asked.
"Why in the bloody Hell wouldja 'ave a machinegun at a wedding?" A British accent said, showing Psycho.
"Guarding purposes. Who knows, someone would hold a grudge against Spike or AppleJack." Vesa answered for Karlos.
"You two just bring pistols. No turrets, no miniguns, no helicopters, just knives and pistols. But the pistols will have Silencer attachments, or there will be some serious Hell to pay." Spike said, then, he yawned.
"Boss, have ya been up all night?" Psycho asked, looking at Spike.
"Yes. AJ kept me up all night, doing something I'd rather not tell." Spike said.
"Bow chika bow wow." Vesa said, his voice struggled as he moved a heavy bench to it's place.
"Son of a bitch." Spike moaned out, seeing Karlos give a wink at him. Spike looked up when he heard giggling, but no one else heard it. He walked up to a pillar, examining it. He then put on his helmet, and his suit turned red, his muscles growing a bit larger.
"Maximum Strength."
"What is it?" Vesa asked.
Suddenly, Spike punched the pillar, and a cyan blur hit the ground. She groaned, and got up, dusting herself off.
"Spike, why'd you do that?" Rainbow Dash asked, looking at the Nanosuit in front of her.
"Wrong man, he's th' one you want to talk to." Psycho said, pointing at the now normal Nanosuit which held Spike.
"One, you shouldn't be here. Two, I know you're loyal, I heard you almost went after me then the gardens started to float. Three, AJ shouldn't know about this, so Pinkie Promise that you won't tell." Spike said.
"Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." RD said, doing the motions with her hands.
"Good, now four, I need you to deliver all the invites to everyone I know. Except the princesses, they're too busy to come, so don't even try. Last, but not least, I'm pretty busy, and I don't want you to prank me. You should be quiet while doing so anyway, and try not to giggle."
RD blushed, then nodded. Spike handed her a bag full of invites. RD got ready, but a hand went on her shoulder.
"Listen, make sure no one tells AJ, I want it to be a surprise." Spike said.
RD nodded, then flew off.
"Looks like we're almost done boss. Just need a cake, and a bride." Karlos said, winking at Spike, who only growled.
"I know someone who would make the cake for a special occasion like this." Spike said, smiling, even though they couldn't see it, thanks to Spike's helmet.
"Who are you talking about?...No." Vesa said, realizing who it was.
"Yes." Spike said, smirking.
"Who are we talking about?" Karlos asked, then Vesa whispered the name. "You've got to be shitting me."
"Nope, we're going to Ponyville to meet up with her." Spike said, looking outside. They were in the newly rebuilt Canterlot, even though the battle was four weeks ago.
Spike started to head towards the Train station.
"Please, not that pink devil." Karlos pleaded.
"Well, since you said no Pinkie Pie, I guess I'll have to..." Spike said, looking at the two relieved CELL soldiers. "Order you to come with me to see her. Since you insist on calling me Boss, I guess I give you orders."
Vesa growled. "I hate my job."
"You and me both, brother." Karlos said
"Quit your bitchin', and get on the train. Psycho, stay at the Church and wait for RD. After that, go get a rest, do something that doesn't involve killing or having a weapon until the wedding."
"Alright Boss. Oh, and Spike."
Spike was about to enter the train, until Psycho called him. "Yeah?"
"Wish you the best of luck. And, congrats, Boss."
"Thanks. See you when we get back." Spike said, entering the train.
The train started up, and started to chug down the mountain. Leaving a trail of smoke as it went.
A CELL soldier stood there, along with his friend, another CELL soldier, standing right next to him. He then checked his watch, to see what time it was, and groaned in boredom. Suddenly, something flew by the window right behind them.
"Hey, did you hear something?" The first soldier asked.
"Probably the sound of you being an idiot." His friend said.
"You're probably right...dick biscuit." The first one said.
A invisible figure stood behind them, as a sword ejected out of it's right wrist, and he raised his gun with it's left hand. It deactivated it's Cloak mode, and stabbed the first soldier, and fired at the second. It then kicked off the first CELL soldier, and shot at him, and stabbed the second at the heart, killing both CELL in a few seconds.
A CELL soldier walked in, his armor different than the others. It looked exactly like a Nanosuit, and then he pulled his MARSHALL shotgun out, and pumped it. He then turned invisible, the thing that attacked the two CELL soldiers looked around, trying to spot the new CELL soldier.
It's head then splattered as the shotgun fired, making the CELL soldier flicker in and out of visual for the cameras. He then started to fire some more, blowing it's mechanical arms off, then it's jell like body, and kicked it out the window, making the mechanical body drop ten floors down, before exploding on the concrete.
"Stupid fucking Ceph need to stay away." The CELL soldier said, reloading.
"Charles, report in." A voice said in his COMMs.
"This is Charles reporting in. We've got three KIA, two CELL guards and one Ceph Stalker. Please confirm." Charles said, looking around.
"Say again, Charles, it sounded like you said a Ceph Stalker." The male voice said.
"I did sir."
"Well, that means it's not alone...Hold on a second, I have to check who's out the door. Sounds like someone's screaming about Bloody Murder or some stupid shit about that." The voice said, then, he left the radio he was using, but left it on.
"Sir! Don't go out there!"
"Don't worry I'll be--" The radio then filled with a large metallic screech, then gun fire.
"Sir? Sir! God dammit! Not only do I have to find the fucktard, but now I have to kill some Ceph too. This is the usual Monday for me." Charles said, then, he heard a sound behind him, and pumped his shotgun.
"Love how you pump that shotgun whenever you're near me." A female voice said.
"Bow chika bow wow." A second voice said.
"Shut up!" The first voice said.
"God fucking dammit, my nuts!"
"Aw fuckmuffins." Charles said as he turned around, only to see a CELL soldier on the ground, holding his tender area. Another CELL soldier stood beside him, but her armor had a feminine outline to it. "Angel, Haggs, good to see you both."
"Same to you sir." Haggs said, his voice a octave higher than it usually was. Charles helped Haggs up. "Thanks man."
"No problem. But you will have one in a second."
"What are you talking about?" Haggs asked, only to get kicked in the same area he tried to protect. "Fuck! Fucking Mondays man, can't do shit about anything on Mondays."
Charles smiled as he lowered his leg. "Alright you two, let's get up there and kill some squid motherfuckers!"
"Yeah, let's kick some ass!" Haggs said, getting up. He then grabbed his SCAR, and cocked it.
"Yeah, fucking kill some shit!" Angel said, not as excited, but still excited.
Suddenly, the doors blew right off in front of them as a Ceph Heavy stood there, charging it's grenade cannon.
"Son of a fucking bitch!" Haggs said as it fired, barely missing his helmet. Haggs notices that some of his helmet was scorched, making him pissed. "Alright asshole. You fuck with CELL, then you fuck with me." Haggs said, firing at the Ceph Heavy, making it stumble a few steps back. Haggs pulled out his C4, and threw it on the Heavy, but fired at it's helmet, taking it off.
Angel pulled out her M12 NOVA out, and fired at the Ceph Heavy's head, doing nothing but enraging it. Charles jumped onto it's back, and fired his Shotgun into it's head, killing it. It then leaned backwards, and landed on Charles, but Haggs and Angel didn't notice.
Both the CELL soldiers high fived, but then they looked at the Ceph Heavy. "Get this thing off of me." Charles muffled voice came out. Angel and Haggs would lift it off of him. "So, Haggs, what's the C4 supposed to do?"
"You see, when a man and a explosive device love each other very much, then the man will plant the explosive, and blow shit up." Haggs explained in a humored tone. "Seeing as how those things will notice us any second, we might as well blow them up."
Angel and Charles looked at the glass to see a couple Ceph stalkers and grunts attempting to break the glass, enough were lucky and had their limbs sticking through the broken glass. Charles then used his Maximum Strength on his suit to kick the body of the Ceph Heavy towards the glass, leaving a huge crack in it.
"Valid point. So, let's blow shit up." Charles said as he ran towards another door, and kicked it down, getting out of the blast radius of the explosives, same with Haggs and Angel.
"You might want to cover your ears! Shit's about to hit the fan!" Haggs warned, then he pushed the trigger, running faster.
One of the Ceph grunts was lucky enough to get in, and start running towards the gaping hole of what was a door frame. It didn't noticed the explosive on the carcass of the Ceph Heavy right in front of the glass. Suddenly, a explosion went out, making all of those near die in a fireball, or blast them out of the windows. Those not so close, like Charles, Angel, and Haggs, temporary went deaf at the sound. Later on, there would be nothing but broken mechanical bodies of the once alive Ceph.
New York Liberty Dome
Some hooded figures stood next to a frozen the Nanosuit, a large metal container keeping the user in cryo sleep.
"Alright, this fucker doesn't look so hard to give to CELL. I'll just let him out and kick his ass if he doesn't agree to come with us." The leader said, smugly as he went towards a control pad.
The leader pressed some buttons, and the Nanosuit had electricity go through, making the suit jolt. Then, Alcatraz's body, or, as he's known as Prophet now, stopped moving. A soldier got close towards the ice holding Prophet.
"Bitch doesn't look so tough now." The CELL soldier said, laughing.
Suddenly, in a fraction of a second, Prophet looked up, and pushed his hand out, breaking the glass and ice holding him, and grabbed the CELL soldier's throat. He then walked out of the glass and ice, and crushed the soldier's throat easily, throwing the lifeless corpse away. He turned around to see countless CELL soldiers aiming at him.
"Alright assholes...Whose next?" Prophet asked, running towards a CELL soldier. He turned his Maximum Power on, and punched the soldier in the face, breaking the soldier's skull even through his helmet. Prophet then kicked the CELL soldier's SCAR into the air, and grabbed it in mid-air. He quickly reloaded, and fired at another CELL soldier, killing the man easily.
"What the Hell are you all waiting for? Shoot the fucker down!" The leader said in panic, but the CELL soldiers fired anyway, trying to hit Prophet.
Prophet turned his Cloak on, turning invisible, making the soldiers look around in confusion, and fired in random directions. Prophet flickered in the soldier's view, but snapped the soldier's neck, killing him easily. The soldiers started to fire at Prophet making him turn invisible again.
"What the Hell? He's like a fucking ghost! We can't hit him, or find him!" A CELL soldier cried out in alarm.
"Sir, what should we do?" Another asked, before a knife went into his throat.
"Son of a bitch! Fall back!" The CELL commander said, before a hand came out of the shadows, and snapped his neck killing him.
Prophet then fired at some CELL soldiers, killing them instantly. He looked around to notice that he killed almost all the CELL soldiers, except a few who were on the ground, dying slowly, or the ones attempting to escape, only to get killed by the super soldier.
One of the commanders would lean his back against the wall, his breathing erratic. Prophet would walk over to the CELL soldier, and kneel down next to him.
"What're ya waitin' fer? Kill me, and get it over wit'." The commander said, glaring at Prophet.
"Where am I?" Prophet asked.
"New York Liberty Dome, 'ere the second Ceph attack happened five weeks ago. Why?"
"Then there's still time to stop the Ceph invasion. Tell me, how many Ceph survived?"
"None, the Ceph are gone and dead. All that is here are lifeless husks of those slimy bastards." Another CELL soldier said, before a sniper bullet went through his helmet, killing him.
The commander then got sniped as well, but both shots were silenced.
Suddenly, a bald man came into view, a sniper in his hands. "Prophet, good to see ya' mate."
Prophet would then grab someone again, ready to crush the man's throat, when suddenly he noticed it wasn't a CELL soldier.
"Woah, woah, woah! We're friendlies!" Prophet would look a the bald man, remembering the man's British accent. "You remember friendlies, right?"
"Psyco?" Prophet said, dropping the soldier.
"That's right Prophet. It's me." Psyco said.
"What happened to your Nanosuit?" Prophet asked, helping the soldier he almost killed get up.
"Me and Psycho got skinned. Fuckin' CELL took the Nanosuits. You were next, Proph." Psyco said, growling in irritation. "Psycho got skinned yesterday. C'mon, we got to warn Spike about CELL."
"What about the Ceph?" Prophet asked, dropping his empty weapon on the floor.
"Spike and you took 'em out, remember? Whatever, we have to get the Hell outta 'ere." Psyco said, walking away.
"No, the Alpha Ceph. I mean is it around here?" Prophet asked in annoyance.
"Proph, I'm tellin' ya, you kicked their cyborg asses. Plus, the Alpha Ceph doesn't exist. You must've been frozen for too long. We should get Spike though, he needs to come here and see this shit." Psyco said, then he would look around, aiming his silenced sniper.
They started to move around, only to crouch when a CELL soldier went by. Prophet quickly grabbed one of the CELL soldiers, and snapped his neck, while Psyco fired three shots, killing to CELL soldiers. Psyco then gave Prophet a bow.
"A bow? A little old fashion if you ask me."
"That's no ordinary bow, Proph. CELL made it. Has four modes, with nine arrows for each mode."
"If I wanted this, I would've been found in Ponyville."
"That's not all. If you use that weapon while in Cloak mode, you stay Cloaked. So, how do you feel about it now?"
"I'm warmin' up to it."
Suddenly, a radio crackled to life on one of the CELL soldiers, and Prophet turned to the same channel to listen.
"Be advised. New Military group called CELL continues to climb up the power ladder. These CELL soldiers wear new armor compared to the old ones that help us today. We advise everyone stays inside their homes if you spot one of them. Instructions shall be sent of what to do if you spot them."
"Yeah, here's my instructions; kill all sons of bitches!" Prophet said, kicking open the door to see twenty CELL soldiers standing there, one of them dead from being squashed by the metal door. Prophet grabbed the MARSHALL Shotgun on the floor, and pumped it. "So, which one of you fuckers wants to go first." Prophet said, aiming at the CELL soldiers.
"They call me...Prophet."
Spike stepped out, breathing in the fresh air. He had his helmet off, thankfully, and breathed some green flames out, but they were small. "Home sweet home." Spike said, smiling.
"Yeah, if that's what you call it." Vesa said, only to get smacked in the back of the head by Karlos.
"You don't diss a mans home. No matter how great or shitty it is." Karlos growled to Vesa. "Plus, be nice, after all, it is his home."
A bunch of mares, stallions, colts and fillies started to crowd around Spike.
"Can you please sign my autograph?" A mare asked, giving him a picture. He signed it, making her squeal.
"I don't want to know if she has wet dreams about him." Vesa snickered, making Karlos snicker as well.
"Yo, assholes, you comin' or what?" Spike asked, walking away, making the two CELL soldiers follow.
Spike waved towards some girls and mares, making them giggle. Karlos and Vesa watched with mirth, but kept their mouths closed. Spike then started to talk to some colts and fillies, making them giggle or blush. Spike would then look at Karlos, but whisper in a colts ear, making him laugh. Spike would laugh with him, much to Karlos displeasure.
"C'mon boss. We gotta go." Vesa said, patting Spike's shoulder, to gain his attention. Spike would look at him, and nod, walking away.
Spike would walk back, and whisper something, making all of the colts and fillies laugh. He then would run after Karlos and Vesa, and they never noticed.
"Your so good with the fans." Vesa said sarcastically when he saw Spike wave to Derpy, while she waved back.
"Cus my mama taught me some manners son." Spike quoted from Gears of War. But, it was true.
"Well, you better hope you could have some kids so you can teach them some manners. After this, your kids will most likely not exist. That's if you escape with your life." Karlos joked, laughing.
Suddenly, Pinkie appeared in front of Karlos. "Whatcha laughin' 'bout?"
"Holy shit!" Karlos said, falling backwards.
Vesa started to laugh, but when he turned around, and saw Pinkie, he nearly shat himself. "Jesus fucking Christ! You trying to give me a heart attack?"
"Nope." Pinkie said, crossing her arms in mock anger.
"Well, you're trying to prank me, aren't you? Or trick me in some way?" Vesa asked.
"Are not." Pinkie countered
"Are too." Vesa countered back.
"Are not."
"Are too."
"Are not."
"Are too."
"Are too." Pinkie said, smiling. Spike was in the background, trying to hold his laughing back.
"Are not." Vesa said.
"Are too."
"You are not! And that's the end of this argument." Vesa said, crossing his arms, thinking he won.
"Okey Dokey Lokey!" Pinkie said, bouncing towards Spike.
Spike, however, was rolling on the ground, laughing. Vesa realized what happened, and facepalmed. He then remembered he had a helmet, and facepalmed again.
"You are a dumbass, you know that?" Spike said, catching his breath.
"Aren't you supposed to be at AppleJack's house?" Karlos asked, snickering still from the argument.
"Oh shit! Pinkie, I'm going to need you to make a Wedding Cake." Spike said.
"Sir yes sir!" Pinkie said with a military helmet on.
Spike blinked, trying to see if he was seeing things. When he blinked again, she was gone. "How in the Hell...Never mind, I have to propose to somepony today!" Spike ran towards the barn, Vesa and Karlos chasing after him.
"Boss, I have to ask, how are you going to ask her to be your wife-" Karlos started.
"Mare." Spike interrupted. Karlos gave him a glare that made him smile sheepishly.
"Anyway, how're you going to propose to her?" Karlos asked, with a worried glance towards AJs house.
"My unique Charisma should do the trick." Vesa said, smirking.
"Yeah, I'll have to lend you some of mine." Spike said, sounding serious.
"Shut the Hell up!" Vesa said, then, he arrived at the door, and knocked rapidly.
"I wouldn't do that." Spike said.
"I know what I'm doing." Vesa growled, and kept on knocking.
Suddenly, the door broke open, crushing Vesa, Spike would start laughing, seeing his friend fly back. AJ walked out of the door way, rubbing her tired eyes.
"Ya'll better 'ave a good reason fer wakin' me up." AJ said, glaring at Karlos, who took a step back.
"Get this thing...off of me!" Vesa said, his voice muffled. Spike quickly kicked it off of his friend, and smiled.
"Told ya not to do that." Spike said smugly.
"Smartass." Vesa coughed out, laughing. Spike helped Vesa up, and the CELL soldier brushed himself. "Charisma, works every time." Vesa said, smiling.
"AJ, I've got to ask you something." Spike said, getting down on one knee. "Would you marry me?"
AJ suddenly tackled Spike to the ground, kissing the surprised dragon. "Let me think...yes." AJ said, tears of joy going down her cheeks.
"Knew you wouldn't refuse. Now, can you please get off of me? Your crushing my ribs." Spike said through a struggled breath. AJ let go, blushing. "Thanks. Now, I already had Rainbow send the invitations. Pinkie is already making a cake."
"Well, ya got prepared." AJ said, smirking.
"Well, you had a zero point thrity four chance of not accepting my-" Spike started, then AJ glared at him.
"Don't you use yer fancy mathematics on me!" AJ said, making Spike laugh.
"It's good to be back." Spike said, hugging AJ.
"I'm Human, Prophet! They took away my Nanosuit!" Psycho
A robotic limb came out the rubble, it's claws balling into a fist. A metallic roar was heard, as the rest of the body came out, showing the Ceph General. "The Alpha Ceph will be happy to know I have found a new world to take over." He said to himself, laughing.
He heard some rubble behind him move, and he turned around to see two Ceph Stalkers coming out of the grass, metallic noises coming out of their mouths.
"Sir! We thought of you long dead. Thank the Alpha you're still alive." One said, his screechy voice.
"Yes. The Alpha Ceph feared your demise." The second said, a slight distortion to his voice.
"Where is he now?" The General asked.
"New York Liberty Dome." The first one said, joy in his voice.
"Good, then you two have served my purpose." The General said, raising his Pinch Rifle, and shooting the two Ceph, killing them both.
------------------------------------------------Wedding----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spike and AJ stood together.
"Spike, do you take this mare t' be your wife?" The priest, who was Psyco, just without his Nanosuit.
"I do." Spike said, with a fancy suit on, his armor peeled back onto one scale, that was hidden.
"And AJ, do you take this drake t' be your husband?" Psyco asked, looking at AJ.
"Ah do!" AJ said, smiling.
"Then I pronounce ya both Drake and Mare! You may now kiss the bride." Psyco said, making Spike and AJ kiss, and the crowd started cheering.
Karlos sniffled, Vesa standing right next to him.
"Dude, are you crying?" Vesa asked, looking at Karlos.
"No, there's something in my eye!" Karlos answered, making Vesa laugh.
"That's a big fat lie! We're wearing standard issue CELL helmets, remember?" Vesa said, making Karlos sigh.
"I call Uncle!" Karlos said, before Vesa could say.
"Fuck!"
"I call Aunt!" Twilight said, and Karlos looked to floor, disappointed.
"Fuck!" Karlos said, making Vesa happy he wasn't Uncle.
AJ threw her flowers in the air, and some girls and mares were trying to grab it, but Twilight grabbed it, smiling.
Suddenly, some CELL soldiers came through, aiming their weapons around.
"Yo, how come you made a party and didn't invite us?" A CELL soldier asked jokingly, wearing a CELL Nanosuit on.
Karlos bumped fists with the CELL soldier. "Charles. Good to see you man."
"Same with you Karlos Spicey Weiner!" Charles joked, earning some laughs for the CELL soldiers behind him.
Spike bumped fists with Charles as well. "Name's Spike."
"Charles. Nice to meet someone else with a Nanosuit that isn't Prophet." Charles said, smiling.
"Sir, we got a problem!" a CELL soldier said, before something uncloaked behind him, and tackled him.
"Johnny's down! It ripped his fuckin' throat out!" A CELL soldier said, before another Ceph tackled him down.
"Just great. AJ stay here, I've got business to take care of." Spike said, then, the Nanosuit covered his body, making him look like Prophet. "So, which one of you assholes decided to crash my wedding?" Spike asked, cracking his fist, and cracking his neck.
Seeing Spike as a threat, one of the three Ceph Stalker ran towards him, roaring out in its metallic tone. Spike quickly punched it, killing it as his fist went through it's heart. He kicked the body off, and Charles quickly went behind one of the Stalkers, pulled his knife out, and stabbed it's chin, going through it's brain, killing it.
The last Ceph quickly roared, and another Ceph uncloaked, right behind Spike.
"Boss, watch out!" A voice said, and then something was stabbed.
Spike turned around to see Psyco, stabbed with the Stalker's sword. The Stalker through Psyco away, but then Spike grabbed the Stalker's throat, and put his face in front of it's face.
"You son of a bitch! I'll kill you!" Spike said, throwing it to a pillar. He then ran up to it, and started punching it, the Nanosuit making dents in the Ceph's armor. Spike then punched it's head, making it explode. He then threw the body away, and roared.
A arrow then went on the last Ceph. The Ceph looked down to see the arrow light up red where it hit, then it exploded.
A large figure, the same size as Spike, jumped from his cover, to show; Prophet. "Psycho, situation is FUBAR, Fucked Up Beyond Any Repair! Psyco is down, I repeat, Psyco is down!"
Spike would then run towards Psyco, who would lie there, bleeding. He would then kneel next to Psyco, and hold him, tears going onto Spike's visor as he silently cried.
"Medic! We need a Medic over here!"
"Hey boss...*Cough, cough* Did you get hit?" Psyco asked, making Spike smiled sadly.
"No, Psyco. I wasn't hurt. But we need to get you medical assistance. Goddammit! We need Medical assistance!" Spike said, his helmet peeling back so Psyco could see his face.
"No...no. Listen, boss, I'm done for." Psyco said, laughing, but then he coughed. Psyco then pulled his Dogtags off, and put them in Spike's hand. "Listen, boss, I need to ask you a favor. My dying wish." Psyco said, smiling sadly, knowing what was going to happen.
"Anything Psyco." Spike said, holding onto the Dogtags.
"Listen, I need you to make sure that the Ceph don't destroy our world. I know that I won't live long enough to see your first child. Hell, I won't live long enough to see the next day. But, you have to promise me; keep this place safe." Psyco said, then, he smiled. "Buck up kiddo. At least I'll see Raptor team again. See ya on the other side, Spike..."
Spike felt Psyco go limp, the life out of his eyes, drained. Spike would then give a long, pained roar to the Heavens. Spike would then push Psyco's eyelids down, and lower his head in respect.
"Spike?" AJ said, seeing Spike stand up.
Prophet would lower his head in respect.
"Boss, what's going on!" Psycho said in the radio.
A medical team came in, and Spike backed away, giving them some space.
----------------------------------------------------------Psycho-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Boss, what's going on?" Psycho asked, looking at the Church where the wedding was held.
"Psyco's down." Prophet's voice said, over the COMMs.
"Get him some Medical Assistance then!" Psycho said, fury evident in his voice.
"We did. Medics called it in a few seconds ago. Psyco's KIA." Prophet's voice said.
Psycho finally arrived, seeing Psyco, lying on the floor, a puddle of blood on the ground. Psycho would lower his head in respect at seeing the sight. Everyone in the church was giving a moment of silence for Psyco.
"We need to give him a burial." Spike said, looking at Psyco's lifeless form.
"Spike?" AJ asked, looking at Spike.
"He died with Honor, and doing his duty as a Soldier. He needs a burial. It's the least we can do for him." Spike said, pocketing Psyco's Dogtags.
"Alright." Prophet said, nodding.
A week after Psyco's death, they held a funeral. It had rained that day, the grey clouds overhead, almost as if they were crying as well. People had wondered if Pegasi had made it rain, but, none of the ponies had touched a cloud since a week ago.
Psycho had been there, as well as Prophet, Karlos, Vesa, and Spike. Twilight, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, AppleJack, and Pinkie Pie were there. All had saddened expressions, even Pinkie's mane was down, even though she was the happiest pony everyone knew.
Spike stood there, on top of a tree, watching as his friend, Psyco, got a funeral. He watched as people cried, children and foals cried as well. Psyco had been known by many as a friend, and now they were grieving. CELL soldiers grabbed their guns, along with Marines, and readied them.
"Present arms!" Prophet yelled, seeing the soldiers aim their SCARs into the sky. "Fire!"
The guns fired. Twenty One Gun salute. Not many people knew that it was a honor to get that at your funeral. Too bad Psyco wasn't there, enjoying it. Maybe he was, just a ghost now.
Spike balled his hands into fists, and roared in the air, as the guns stopped firing. Prophet saluted towards the casket, and Spike jumped down, joining them in the grieving. He then walked over to the casket, seeing his friend peaceful. Prophet patted Spike's shoulder, who only grunted in response.
"Who would like to day a few words?" The priest asked, looking at everyone and everypony. Spike nodded, then the priest moved, to let Spike have some room.
"Where to begin? Many of you may have known him as a user of the first Nanosuit program, as a soldier. I saw him as that, but also more. He was a soldier, he was a user of the Nanosuit program, but, he was a friend, felt like family, even though we weren't blood related."
"He had been through so many horrors, blood, and war, even I, a Marine, would throw up in disgust. He said he was a Veteran, of war and life, and I believed him. He was a tough bastard, still can't believe he took a stab through the chest just to save my life. if you ask me, he was a true hero of war. I believed him, I was a friend of him, even to the grave."
"He said that he would give his life to just save Equestria. Not only that, but he saved my life, and so many others. If it weren't for him, I'd probably be dead if it weren't for him. I owe him my life. What I have to say, is that I'll enjoy the memories we made, good and bad."
"I'll take these memories to the grave, and I want to say is...Enjoy your rest, Psyco. Have fun with Raptor squad." Spike said, smiling sadly at his friend's face. But, he seemed to smile now, seemingly more peaceful. "Good luck big fella, you'll need it." Spike said, chuckling.
Prophet then nodded, standing where Spike was. "My old friend knew Psyco as a team member, who defied orders, even though he did great. He saw him as a tough bastard who withstood torture to save people's lives, good and bad. He still has the scars from the torture even now."
"He saw Psyco as a soldier, a man who knew what he was doing. He also saw, a friend. He was like family to so many people, it was almost not real when I saw him pass away. Listen, not many of you may've known Psyco like the old me did, but deep inside, I knew he was a true friend."
The only time he didn't help you was when he would die, even then, he promised to keep us safe. He had a good eye, knew people inside and out, like they were a book, and he knew how to read them, cover to cover."
"He knew so many things about people that took me months to find out, and it'd take him days, maybe hours, to find out what your fingerprint looked like, even when the picture was smudged. If you ask me, he deserves to be buried with the best heroes. He was a Hero of War. Rest In Peace." Prophet concluded.
The day started off sad, but then it turned out fine when people and ponies alike told stories about Psyco, how the Remember was a Memory so many would enjoy for the rest of their lives. Prophet and Spike both lifted their SCARs, and fired, honoring their friend's death.
That day, Spike and the rest remembered all the good times they had with a dear friend. At the bottom of the tombstone, Spike grabbed out a Kukri, and started to carve something, but only when the others were gone, so they couldn't see what he was making.
When he finished, Spike grabbed Psycho's knife out, and stabbed it in the ground, the hilt and half of the blade showing. Spike patted the hilt, put something on the knife, and stood up. He then saluted, and walked off. Before he left, he would look back at the tombstone, and put his helmet on, hiding the smile under it.
On the tombstone, a broken Nanosuit helmet, Psyco's to be precise, was hanging onto the knife. the carving Spike made said only one sentence.
"Remember the fallen, as if they were your own."
"Spike, you comin'?" AJ asked.
"Yeah, just a sec, honey!" Spike yelled back. Spike would then look at the tombstone, then nod. He would then turn around, and run after AJ.
My Note: I'd like to take the moment to Remember those who have fallen in war, battle, or just every day life. Either by old age, saving someone's life, or sacrificing yourself to save your friends, just know to remember them. Remember the good and bad times. Remember the fun times, and the sad times. Just, Remember all about the person, and they're never truly gone, just as long as the people who knew them Remember.
"Spike?" Psycho asked, knowing Spike was still sad about Psyco's death.
"Let's get this over with." Spike grunted out, looking at Psycho.
"Alright, but Boss, you'll need this." Psycho said, handing Spike something.
Spike grabbed it, and it unfurled to show..."A bow?"
"Yeah, makes ya a silent killing machine. Serious kit this, you like?" Psycho asked, as Spike tested the string.
"No." Spike replied after a seconds, looking back at Psycho.
"Well that's because you haven't heard the good part. Came from CELL weapons factory, with a nine interchangeable heads, it has enough Kenetic force to stop a rhino dead. Best part is, laser targeting attaches to your suit, so you stay cloaked while firing. You like it now?" Psycho explained, smiling.
"I'm coming around." Spike said, examining the bow.
"Well, we better go to the Liberty Dome. Prophet said he'll meet us there." Psycho said, patting the dragon's shoulder.
Spike sighed, then he would look at the house he lived in with AJ. It was the same house she has been living in for a while, except AB went to High School now, Granny Smith is still the same old Granny Smith, and Big Macintosh was marrying Miss Cheerilee.
He put a note in front of the door, and let the bow retract. He then put it on his back, and started to walk towards the helicopter Psyco and Spike took when they first battled together. Spike drew out his Kukri, and started to sketch something out.
When he was done, he sheathed his knife, and walked towards the cockpit. Psycho saw what he drew, and it was showing the tattoo Psycho and Psyco had, and eagle tattooed on their heads. Psycho chuckled, and got in. He then pounded the side with his fist, making Spike take off.
Prophet sat there, but shielded his visor when a helicopter came into view. It set down, the cold, cloudy, raining night was the only thing visible, besides the lights. The helicopter opened to show Spike and Psycho come out. Spike noticed the dead bodies, but didn't say anything.
"He's quiet..." Prophet noted, knowing Spike was quiet only when he was sad.
"We better get going, boss. Karlos and Vesa are already inside." Psycho said, walking away. Prophet nodded, then looked at Spike again.
"Let's go." Spike said, walking ahead. The soft pattering of rain filled their ears as they walked.
"What happened while I was gone?" Prophet asked, looking ahead.
"They took over the world, except for Equestria." Psycho said, sneering.
"The Alpha Ceph?" Prophet asked, but Psycho growled.
"No. The guys who shot you full of K-Volts in Siberia, the guys who skinned the others, the guys who had you locked up for four weeks, the guys who took my Nanosuit: CELL, those guys." Psycho explained. "Ah, forget it." Psycho said, shaking his head.
"What about the Ceph?" Prophet asked, but then, a CELL soldier came into view, looking at a computer.
Spike pulled his military knife out, then stabbed the CELL soldier, killing him silently. Spike would then turn his Cloak on, disappearing from view. The soft sound of his footsteps was heard as he listened in, seeing four CELL soldiers ahead.
"I don't get why we have to stay here. I mean, yeah, this guy has the Nanosuit, but we could take him easily." One of them complained, but another with a Marshall shotgun growled.
"Haven't you heard? This is Prophet. Hell, he ain't even human anymore. He took down the Ceph easily." The Sargent said, shaking his head. He looked down a hole that was in the middle of the floor, used for docking.
It was quite large. "Yeah, I heard this guy took down Colbat section four weeks ago. Not only is he dangerous, but he is a killer."
"Well, he bleeds like the rest of us." One of them said, laughing.
"No. He doesn't." The sargent said, before a hand came out of the shadows and snapped his neck.
"Sarge, you know when we're going to skin this asshole? Sarge?" One of soldiers looked around. Suddenly, a arrow flew by, impaling his head, killing him silently.
Prophet walked towards the dead body, and pulled out the arrow. He then turned his Cloak on, disappearing from view.
"You know where Joan went? And where's Sarge?" One of them asked, before a punch to the stomach and face knocked him out. Spike picked up the body, and threw it down the hole.
"Guys?" A arrow pierced his chest, sending him backwards.
Spike would walk up to the soldier, and take the arrow out. "All yours, Prophet." Spike said, walking away from the soldier's view.
"My pleasure." Prophet said, aiming his bow towards the CELL soldier's head. He fired, killing the man instantly.
Psycho looked towards Spike and Prophet. "We need to get to the observation deck. It's near here. We'll split up. Spike, stay with Prophet. I'll provide you with coverin' fire." Psycho said, going up a ladder once they got outside.
"So, just like old times." Prophet said, fist bumping Spike.
"Except you saved my life." Spike said, smiling, even thought his helmet wore a expressionless face.
"Yeah, well, I had to give you the suit. Anyway, let's kick some ass." Prophet said, shrugging. He turned his Cloak on, same with Spike.
"Shit! Charlie team is down!" A CELL Sargent said. Spike fired a arrow, impaling the man's spine, killing him instantly.
"Peek a boo." Prophet said, firing a arrow as well, killing a CELL soldier.
They both grabbed the arrows, but one of the CELL soldiers spotted them. "Shit! Prophet is out! Also, there's a Nanosuit we missed! Get the Helicopter, now!"
Prophet looked over his shoulder to see a light flaring at them. "Nanosuit subject Prophet and Spike! Stand down! Other wise, we'll kill you both!" The helicopter came into view, weapons trained on them.
"All yours, Spike." Prophet said, seeing Spike draw a explosive arrow out.
Spike then aimed, and fired, hitting the Helicopter. The arrow exploded, damaging the Helicopter. It started to fire at Spike and Prophet. Spike activated his Maximum Armor, blocking most of the bullets, but he grunted in pain.
Spike drew another arrow, then fired, hitting the Helicopter's cockpit. It then beeped twice, and exploded, taking the Helicopter out of the air, and into the stormy water below.
"Who needs rockets?" Spike asked, changing to his normal arrows. Prophet threw a grenade over his shoulder. It landed right in front of a CELL soldier, who yelped in alarm before exploding.
"Let's meet up with Psycho." Prophet advised going back inside.
"Yeaah, hold on for a sec." Psycho said, cutting a CELL soldier. "Prick." Psycho muttered, unlocking the door. Spike and Prophet would walk in.
Spike would look at the dead bodies, then to Prophet, who was looking as well. Prophet got one of their black boxes, a little watch like device to record how they died, and downloaded it.
"Alright. I'll show youi what CELL has done to the place while you were asleep. Then, we'll RV with my people." Psycho said, but Prophet was surprised.
"You have people now?" Prophet asked, eyeing Psycho.
"You know me. I've always been a team player." Psycho said, but both Spike and Prophet scanned him.
'You tell me what's happening, or I'll fucking kill you.' Psycho said in Prophet's helmet video. "Final Assesment: Incorrect Statment." Both of their suits said.
"Yeah, I remember." Prophet said, his voice filled with humor.
"Let me show what CELL has done while you were asleep." Psycho said, as the doors opened to show two chairs. Psycho started to push some buttons, and a wall opened, which turned out to be a window.
It showed New York, turned into a tropical jungle. "Welcome to New York. Version Two. Point. Zero." Psycho said, looking at the once great city.
"What have they done?" Prophet asked. He used his tactical mode, and scanned the city. "The City...It has a energy signature. Why is that?"
"CELL is running off a single Ceph machine inside the city." Psycho informed, shaking his head sadly.
"No, it can't be that simple. The Alpha Ceph, He's still out there." Prophet said, growling softly.
"Simple as you like, boss." Psycho said, anger in his voice.
"But the Alpha Ceph showed me visions, glimpses of the-" Prophet began, but Psycho interrupted him.
"Boss, while you were out there hunting some super alien that doesn't exist, CELL were busy taking over the world!" Psycho yelled, his anger flaring.
"Whatever CELL is doing, we have to stop it. Or else, they'll bring about the end of the world!" Prophet stated, but Psycho smiled.
"Fuckin' A we do!" Psycho said, walking away. "Welcome to the Jungle, boss." Psycho said, chuckling.
This is the first Q/A for the My Little Crysis series. Alright, so a bunch of you are wondering why Psyco died, so you can ask anything about the story. But please, one at a time. At My Little Raptor, it was total Chaos. Anyway, if any of you are wondering what will happen next in the story, write down the questions, and I'll write the answers, or in this case, type the answers. I can't reveal too much though, or else that'd ruin the story.
KARLOS1234IFY Q: Can me and VESA have additional rifle? Namely a Sniper rifle perhaps? Where is Discord at the meantime? A: Well, you guys could have weapons that kick ass and stuff. You, Karlos, will most likely the close weapons expert, and Vesa will be long range expert. I don't leave fans disappointed.
