The Departure (Edited)

Planet Earth, a thriving planet of the most interesting living creatures in the solar system. Oceans far as the eye can see, with green trees and plains covering the land for the creatures to feast off of. Where the most intelligent creatures on planet Earth are none other then the human race.

Humans are a mixed creatures between harsh and misunderstood, too smart and kind, whatever the situation makes them to survive on the planet. They never knew the word 'fight' before the existence of their planet. Instead they were prey to the large predators that easily over powered them, making humans cower and run in trees where they could be moderately safe.
They were all prey before the first human learned to use the simplest of weapons; The rock. But to the late primitive humans, it was the chance for survival. They were no longer food to predators that think they are easy meals to them. Instead, the humans finally understood the one thing that made them the most deadly of the species, they all learned to 'fight' back.

Let us fast forward in time to the present day humans. No longer do they live in caves and struggle to make fire. They now live in advanced homes made of tough material and live in large buildings that touch the skies and even pierce the heavens.

They no longer have the need for sharp rocks and spears to kill their enemies. Now they have advanced, with their weapons being modern day guns, bombs, and nuclear weapons that with a just push of a single button may launch a single missile that holds a miniature sun to the targeted location and can completely wipe away its existence.
...
With such massive weapons at hand, soon came fear and paranoia with other countries holding the different races of the humans. They too had weapons that could destroy anything they would consider a threat to their homeland and their allies. In which case, the humans would proceed to take action to their enemies and whoever should pose to attack them. The word for what they seem to always commit and understand was 'war'.

Days became months, months became years, and when one side returns it is either in celebration for their victory or in loss and disgrace.

All seemed lost, for the humans only made allies for material gain and only fought to take the oppositions land while they continually depleted their own. True, while the humans were a self-inflicting race, at the same time they had also remained a kind and intelligent species.

As their knowledge and technology slowly increased over the years, as-well did their ideas of having peace between their former enemies. Years of hate and prejudice made them realize that it was pointless to do such terrible things to their fellow men and the humans decided to set aside their petty differences in order to finally live in perfect peace and harmony.
...
Through years of trial and error, the humans managed to direct their science and technology toward medicine; no longer using their minds to think of other ways to kill each other, but instead heal the sick and cure all illnesses. Slow it may have been for them, but it came out to be a planet where they no longer needed to attack other lands for survival, nor did they make any more weapons to take other lives to save their own. Truly they made an era in which peace and harmony is no longer out of reach for them.

Happy years of living in harmony was cut short though when an enemy they never thought could, arose and acted to destroy everything they worked in order to achieve peace. It was none other than their own creations that helped them raise a better life for their generation. Technology was threatening to disrupt their happy lives in order to wipe out the living beings that breathed life into them. Due to years of peace the humans thought that they no longer needed to fight each other, making them inexperienced in combat with the tools that they used to fight one another centuries ago. Cities that were once full of people and opportunities soon became leveled to the ground turning all who lived there to dead corpses from the sheer amount of endless drones gunning down anything that wasn't one of them. Towns that held quiet communities became large craters due to the missiles that were launched by the machines.

This war waged on for years, but the human race, slowly turning to extinction, made their final decision before the machines made the most heinous of acts ever attempted. The machines intended to destroy not only the living things on planet Earth, but to destroy the planet itself- to prevent humans from digging underground and plan a way to overthrow them. Without a doubt the human race will no longer live when the machines final attack against them was made. So, in a last ditch effort for survival, a small group of humans fled from all the horror and blood shed by the robotic warlords and took shelter in an abandoned research facility. There, the small group of survivors made small rockets; these rockets held precious cargo in each one of them and had different coordinates far away from Earth so the machines could never find them. One by one each rocket flew off into the sky and far away into the stars. Each human, leaving and left behind accepted their fate and decided to face the end of their world.

All except a single couple no older than 18 remained, holding each others hands and looking at the only rocket that has yet depart into orbit. Inside the rocket was a young new born child, still asleep when outside their shelter blood curdling screams and loud gun shots rang clear. The young father reached in to his pocket, revealing a small, shiny object no bigger than the young infants hand. He placed it next to his young sons pillow and put back his arm to his side. Looking at his wife, he saw fresh tears streaming down her face as she tried not to break down right then and there knowing that there was no other way but to send away their only child. Taking slow steady breaths to calm herself, she reached into her bag and pulled out a miniature human male with the colors of red and blue and placed it in the babies arms.

"My son," The young man said trying to hold back his own tears, "It may seem our time is short, hopefully the planet that is assigned to you will raise you like their own child." He then looked at his wife and nodded his head for her to say her goodbyes. The wife then looked at her child and kissed his small head and smiled at him.

"My child," She stopped, her breath becoming shallow and fast paste, "it breaks our hearts to know that we will no longer see you grow to become a fine young man, to see you make friends, to see your first love, and it's even worse that we won't be able to say that.....we love you very much because we-..." Her tears finally broke free in her eyes and she slumped down onto the floor, crying her eyes out, never to see her only child again and not having any more time to spend with one another.

"We hope you have a safe landing, my son," The father said pulling the lever down and listening as the rocket hissed and aimed upward toward the sky, closing the cockpit and securing the child inside, it began to lift up never to be seen again. He looked back to his still crying wife. "It is done, my dear, we can only hope that they won't find him."

"I just w-wish t-that w-we can still have more time! To bathe him while he is still young, have him to learn to ride a bike, and to always let him know that we always love him!" She shouted, tears rushing out of her eyes, blurring her vision.

"We can only hope that the parents that take care of him will do that for us." He then placed a hand on her shoulder, the other firmly in her hand, gently put his lips to his loves mouth and kissed her. Each of them closing their eyes seeing and their lives flash before them, to how they got married, and when they had received their first son. Opening their eyes and looking out in to the distance they saw that a large, bright light engulfing everything in its path was heading straight at them. Before the blast could reach them they tightened their hands and looked back up to the stars and moon to say one final sentence.

"We love you so very much Clark." Before the blast stood a happy newlywed couple with a future to look forward to. Now they are no more, as well as the entire planet Earth, no longer holding a race of advanced species, instead showing nothing but the endless bits of rock that was once called Earth.

PLANET UNKNOWN LOCATION: GOODSPRINGS

Good Springs is a rural town that holds only 1,000 happy civilians that are living in this peaceful town. Miles away from Good springs is a small farm where a young couple lived in happiness. Flash Lighting, who is a Pegasus Stallion was plowing the field on a sunny day, sweat pouring down his face he wiped his forehead with his arm, and went back to work on the fields.

"Honey, come inside," Said his wife; Spring Shimmer, a Unicorn who was holding a cold glass of pink lemonade. "I made fresh lemonade and I hate to let it all waste." Spring Shimmer then went back inside to wait for her husband to finish.

"Coming dear!" Walking back to his house he looked back to the sky just in time to see a falling star. Since when does a falling star happen in the day time? Squinting his eyes to focus on the falling mass Flash noticed the star was heading closer and closer to his farm!

"Honey get out of the house quick!" Flash shouted looking back to see the falling star crash inside his fields.

"What happened Flash?!" Spring asked, running out beside her husband.

"Something huge fell out of the sky and into our fields!" He took his wife to the crash site and saw the full extent of the damage. After what seemed like forever, they finally found what he thought was the falling star, but instead found a large, oval shaped metal object in his half-damaged fields. Slowly, stepping close he lifted his right hand to gently tapped the object of mystery.

"What are you doing?" Asked the distraught unicorn, scared of what might happen to her beloved. "Get over here! You don't know what it is!"

"That's exactly why, I want to know what it is dear. No need to worry." Said the husband, inching his way steadily closer to the crashed object that was still unmoving. Out in the corner of his eye he found a circle shape protruding out of the metal star. Pressing it he heard a loud 'hiss', making him stumble backwards and looked at what is happening to the star.

The couple was baffled as the large structure slowly lifted its front side to reveal that on their farm, inside of a large, metal star that fell from the sky, a tiny hairless foal was still sleeping inside of it, and had no idea of where or what the foal came from. Spring Shimmer and Flash Lighting both walked to the still sleeping foal and looked at each other to see if one of them has an answer.

"What do we do dear?" Asked Spring, still eying the little one carefully. Looking back to her husband she said, "We can't just leave the poor thing here."

"Your right honey," Flash then gently grabbed the child and cradled the foal into his arms securely. "We need to get this little one inside before others ponies arrive to see what happened."

"What about the thing the foal was sleeping in?" She asked him.

"One step at a time. First, we need to get him into the house and then get this thing into our barn before the others arrive here," Flash said to Spring. After moving the child into the house and out of sight, they both focused on putting the metal star in to their barn. Spring levitated the Star with her magic, while at the same time Flash pushed it in to the barn and covered it in a dirty blanket, Closing the barn door just in time before the authorities had arrived to question them on what happened.

For hours they were asked about what happened and if they saw anything out of the ordinary. The couple knew they couldn't tell them the truth because then the guards would send in the military and take away the young foal so they could experiment it on the poor thing. So instead they made up a story, saying it was a stray fire ball from Spring's magic going haywire and was told by the local guards to always be careful with magic and finally left their house.

"Well thank you for your time with the questions, sir, and also tell your wife to be more careful, ok?" Asked the town guard writing in her note pad as a ‘accidental magic mishap’.

"Yes ma'am, I will." Flash assured, then closed the door.

"What do we do now?" Asked Spring making a face at Flash, obviously still worried about the sleeping alien.

"The only thing we can do sweetie." He looked upstairs and climbed to the 2nd floor, to their bedroom that had a young foal sleeping blissfully under the cover of their bed.

"You mean we adopt him?" She questioned Flash.

"Yes, Spring we have to." He then slowly scooped up the young alien foal and looked back to his wife and smiled.

"Just look at him Spring! He almost looks like us! It’s incredible!" He said.

"Won't any pony notice his......differences?" Spring said.

"We will say he was in a serious accident that caused him to look this way, it'll be fine," Flash reassured her. He looked back at the still sleeping foal in his arms, a smile slowly forming on his muzzle.

"I know he will bring a huge change here Spring, I can feel it!" Flash exclaimed, giving the child to her so she could see what he was feeling.

"He is pretty cute...you know, for an alien." She stated.

"He is perfect the way he is." Flash then looked out his bedroom to see that night as already arrived to tell the ponies to go to sleep. "What do you think we should name him?" He asked.

"I still wonder if he is a male." Said Spring, still holding the young foal in her arms and starting to rock him.

"Stallion intuition." Flash deadpanned.

"Then I like him to be called Lighting shimmer," Spring looked at her husband and smiled at the name. "Sounds perfect, don't you think?"

"Yeah, that could work." Flash looked at their new son Lightning Shimmer.

"Welcome to planet Equis, Lighting Shimmer... to your new home." Flash hugged his wife and son in a warm embrace for this miracle that landed in to their lives. Unknowing that in the years to come for the couple, they will experience changes they were not ready to discover about their son.

End of Chapter 1

Author's Note

I know that it was not really what happened for superman but the reason is I wanted to change it with other crossovers like with terminator with the machines overthrowing humanity and fall out new Vegas with Good springs.

I Didn't want to have only one crossover so I intended to use others in my next later chapters.

Well I did this type of editing my first chapter. if you guys like this more approved type then please comment and tell me if this is good. I already made a second chapter and hope to publish it when I get my comments.

Nightmare to reality (Edited)

6 YEARS LATER

In a bright and sunny day on the planet Equis, in the small town of Good Springs a small young child is happily playing tag with his friends. The young child’s name is Lightning Shimmer, a pony differently from his family and friends due to his serous 'injuries'. No fur, except a small black patch on top of his head, at the end of his legs are hooves with extra digits on them and as for his hands, unlike every other pony who had only four, he had one extra finger, making a total of five on each of his hands. His parents: Flash Lightning, a Pegasus and Spring Shimmer, a Unicorn, both told him that he had a terrible birth defect due to severe injuries from his mother, making him born differently from all of the normal, young fillies and colts. Though it may have been hard living differently than all the rest, it didn't stop Lightning from trying to make as many friends as possible. His first friend was Diamond Crush, an Earth pony colt who had bright purple coat, a short cut mane and long haired tail, Second was Swipe- a Unicorn filly with her dark blue coat, braided mane and tail, and finally, the last of his group of friends was Dawn Breaker, an orange colored Pegasus filly older then all of them by 1 year and 1 grade higher- she did not care for looks so her mane and tail are just straight. Even though Lightning was different than all of his friends and family, he was still able to make many friends due to his appearance making him the most popular in their school at Good Springs Elementary. For 6 years, Lightning was the happiest colt in the world and he wouldn't change it any other way.

On Weekends they would play catch in the fields while his parents would sit on the front porch, sipping on ice cold lemonade and looking at their foal have the time of his life. “Here, catch this Light!” shouted Dawn, throwing the ball over hand to him and making the ball land on the outskirts of the forest near his family’s farm.
“Great throw, Dawn. Who taught you? Your dad Stone Grinder?” Said DC crossing his arms and looking at Light, motioning with his head to retrieve the Ball. “Hey, it’s not my fault! My herd mothers told me they are too busy to teach me!” Said the angry filly, offended by his insult.
“Hey calm down! Light’s going to get the ball so stop fighting you two!” Swipe shouted interrupting their arguing. “Be careful, dear.” Said his mother, Spring Shimmer, concerned for his safety. “Listen to your mom son, it’s dangerous,” Flash said to his son. “Ok mom, I’ll be alright.” Said their son running toward the forest, making sure to be careful getting the ball, and leaving as soon as he can.
Crossing the wooden fence from his farm to enter the forest he heard a loud ‘BANG’ coming from the farm. Running back to his home he stopped near the forest’s edge to see what had made everything else turn silent. Miles away from his farm he could see a large, white light coming closer to Good Springs; closer to his farm. “Run! Get away from there!” He shouted at them trying to get their attention. Instead, he saw them all smile and laugh like they don’t see the imminent danger that was about to destroy them. Running faster than he ever ran before he tried to get closer to them and warn them all to run, but he was too late to even shout a single word.

The white light immediately engulfed his friends and parents right in front of him. Light’s heart stopped as he fell to the ground. Looking back up with tears in his eyes, he saw the light that steadily creeped closer to him non-stop. Light wanted to get up and run from the white light that took his loved ones, but couldn’t move his body after the initial shock. Soon the light completely engulfed him, making him see only it. Soon though, seeing the white light wasn’t enough for slowly his entire body soon began to feel like it was being burned to ash, even his bones! His vision was turning blood red now, and soon faded to black- no longer feeling anymore pain from the white light that had once incinerated him.

NIGHT TIME REAL WORLD

Screaming out of his nightmare induced death he panted with fevered breaths and took in his surroundings. Instead of the sunny day, there was a night filled sky signaling him to go back to sleep, but was too scared to revisit his dark nightmare. Light was in his room- not outside being turned to ash, nor were his parents and the farm. Hearing his bedroom door open he looked over to see both his parents still alive and unharmed. Getting out of his bed he dashed forward and lunged at them, hugging both at the same time. Tears were streaming down his happy face ‘they’re not dead!’ he thought, still hugging his mother and father tightly.

“Light, sweetie what’s wrong?” Asked his mother, showing a concerned look at her crying son, rubbing his back to try and calm him down from his nightmare. This was the 109th time he'd had these nightmares since he was able to speak. Always saying the same things all over again like ‘White light eating everything!’ or ‘Shinning metal ponies getting him’ it just seemed to never end.

“I had those dreams again!” Cried Light, hugging his parents even tighter with tears still pouring out of his young face and landing on their shoulders. Flash looked over his son’s shoulder to see the problem as to why his son is having his nightmare’s again; At end of his bed was a miniature figure with a red flag, blue outfit, and a symbol with a letter he had never before seen in Equestria.

Picking up his son, wiping off the tears from his face, he set him down on the bed and covered him with his blankets. Turning to his wife he motioned with his head for her to take the toy at the edge of the bed and give it to him. “Here’s the problem- son, you lost your dream warrior before you went to sleep.” Said Flash, handing the toy to his son and moving aside to let Shimmer sit on the bed. “Whenever you feel like bad ponies are coming to get you, just think real hard and your dream warrior will arrive to save you” Shimmer said, kissing her son on the head. “Are you sure I can’t sleep with you two tonight?” Asked Light, still frightful from his dream ordeal. “I thought you said that you’re big enough to sleep all by yourself?” Flash said with a humorous smirk. A red hue appeared on Light’s face, embarrassed that he still can’t sleep all by himself. Looking at the toy in his arms made him silent for a moment. Whenever he looked at his toy for too long, it made him feel like he has seen this before, but from where?

“Your right dad. I am too big to sleep with you and mom now so I will wish super hard for my warrior to rescue me.” Said Light, hugging the toy harder so it won’t be lost again, wishing to not have any more bad dreams and to not wake his parents in the middle of the night anymore. “Well, good night son. We will be sure to wake you in a few hours to ready for school.” Said Shimmer getting off the bed and stopping at the door to his room, waiting for Flash to join her .

Flash’s face soon turned grim by his mother’s words about school and what horrible things that awaited when him there. In his dreams he was all happy and popular, but his real life was nothing but sweet lies. He was never cool or popular because of the way he looks; instead he is the exact opposite. The citizens of Good Springs Despised him and his parents for even taking care of him, he knew he could all but forget about being popular, let alone making friends with other young foals.

Diamond Crush was not his first friend, but his first bully that made fun of his problems and how he looks. He always made sure to make Light’s life filled with harsh words and terrible beatings to which would be very memorable for Light. Not to mention that his family is of tax collectors, always demanding more money from his parents than they usually paid before they told the town about Lightning Shimmer.

Swipe was the type to hate some pony from afar and steal their belongings when they were not looking. Every time he brought money to buy lunch at the school she always stole it before he could even pay for lunch. The worst of it is that her parents are part of the schools staff, so telling one of the teachers would only make him look like he a liar and get him sent to detention. So, he decided to stop bringing money to school and started asking his dad to make him home lunches instead, but even those got stolen from him and thrown into the trash. Light once had to pick his lunch from the trash when all of the students and teachers were gone from the cafeteria because he was so hungry.

But the final 'friend' he dreamed of was the worst in real life. Dawn Breaker is indeed the oldest of Lights class and of the rest of his bullies, being held back a grade by one year in her class. Dawn is the class bully and always makes Light her personal cheat sheet. She always forces him to do her homework and any other worksheets that the teacher gives out to the rest of the class, even on major tests she makes him work on hers so she can pass and go to the grade she was supposed to be in. Light is the smartest of the class, even the entire school, but is forced to make all of his work be nothing but failures while Dawn’s school work is made to be above average, stealing all the credit and making him to be the school dunce.

“Yes, mom.” Light said emotionless, silently holding back more tears from the knowledge of the upcoming, real nightmares he knew would happen tomorrow.
“Don’t worry son, some day you can make real friends and get out of this place.” Assured Flash, patting his sons lap and getting off of the bed to the door where Shimmer was still waiting for her husband.
“Goodnight mom. Goodnight dad. I love you both.” Light said, before closing his eyes and wishing really hard for his hero to save him when his dreams become too scary to handle on his own.

10 YEARS LATER

In a calm evening, in the forest, near a quaint farm a lone figure was running left and right trying to hide from his mysterious captors. Sweat pouring down his face, blood pumping in his veins, and large panting coming from his parched lips, he had been running for hours and there seemed to be no stopping anytime soon.Taking a hard right next to a large tree he took a full heated blast to his chest, sending him flying 20 yards back, breaking trees that had tried to break his fall before hitting solid rock. His breath was caught in his throat, making it difficult for him to breathe and all the while coughing out large pints of fresh blood from his mouth. Slowly taking heavy gulps of air he looked up to see who had fired such a large chunk of energy at him. Not 10 yards away and slowly creeping closer was a large, metallic pony that looked just like him, only taller with glowing red eyes, a flat face that showed the skull, and with the same extra digits he had on his hands, not to mention a large rectangular shape attached to his right arm.

Closing his eyes shut he tried to project the one thing that helped him every time a dream became too real for him to handle alone. Something that his parents had said will always protect him when he is in trouble, and right now he is in the worst of troubles. The Chrome figure has now closed the distance with the furless biped and locked his sights to his face, lifting his right arm with odd shaped instrument he pushed his index finger to the end of the weapon to finish the weak being, before a large force of strength crumpled his head and soon his entire body before nothing was left but a flat silver pancake.

Opening his eyes, he saw the metal evildoer to be flat and beyond incapable of dong anymore harm to him. Drifting his gaze he caught sight of the hero that had saved him, and which made his mind all the more at ease. Before him was a biped, floating a few inches off the ground with rippling muscles made to crush his enemies, a red cape drifting in the air, a blue body suit with red boots and what appeared to be red underpants, and a symbol with a single letter that was unknown to any of the languages he had learned in school. “Who are you?” He questioned, before he could see his saviors face the hero became blurry, no longer taking proper shape. Soon, the mystery hero banished and as did the surrounding landscape. Leaving him into total darkness and soon in an instant he was showered by small rays of light before waking up to the real world.

REAL WORLD

With a sharp *gasp* of air, he frantically sat up and looked around to see if anymore dangers were around him. Taking only a few seconds to see that he was back in the real world ,in his real bed, did he really let his guard down and relaxed back into silent bliss. Loud banging came from the outside of his door, pulling him from his tranquil peace. “Light- get out of bed, it’s time to eat!” Shouted his father from outside his door, turning around and walking back downstairs to join his wife in the kitchen.
Getting off the bed and out of his pajamas, he took a simple, plain white t-shirt and denim jeans out of his drawer and went to his work table to pick out 2 sheets of paper and a couple of colored pencils from his lower desk drawer and started writing what he saw in his dream. Over the couple of years, his dreaming became more and more realistic as he became older and this dream was the most realistic to him yet.

“Light this is your last chance to get your pancake’s before your mother has them!” Shouted his father warning him of no breakfast to eat before going to his nightmare school to be bullied, stolen and cheated on again. “On my way dad- hold on!” Flash said before taking out two strips of tape and attaching them to the wall before getting all of his supplies and heading down toward the kitchen to start a brand new day of torture. On the wall near his bed and desk, it held two images that, unknowingly to him, would change his life for the good or the bad.

------Miles away from Good Springs in No Vac-------

No Vac is a trade post as well as the only town that is mostly made of hotel housing. Many only stayed there for trading their wares to other tourists; others stayed to have a job at any hotel openings for bits, while at night some only stay there for one night stands of pleasure and only pleasure. The most popular hotel is the No Vac Hotel, the only hotel that can do all the three things the city can by itself. The owner is Sleaze McGee; a petty Earth Stallion who always gets up early to open up his gift shop so unsuspecting ponies would spend their bits for cheap trinkets. Getting out of his room and to the courtyard he heard a loud bang coming behind him making him stop his walking. Turning to a complete 180 to see what had happened, he saw a kneeling, furless diamond dog with parts of the ground that was under him gone, leaving a circular dent. Silent for a few minutes, he picked up his wits and stepped closer to the diamond dog and told him “Hey! Get up from the ground! If you’re that cheap to buy any rooms, then get out!” Raising his fist he prepared for if the stranger decided to get violent and intended to strike him and steal anything.

Before Sleaze could even react though, the kneeling figure quickly stood up and threw his right arm to the Stallion’s throat, making him choke. Sleaze was shocked to not register how quickly the furless bipedal dog grabbed him, even more surprised to be able to be lifted up in the air making him lose what little air he had left in his lungs. “Let me go you son of a whorse!” wheezed the struggling stallion, flailing his fists in weak attempts\ to strike the attacker.

[Organic known as Equine. Give me direction to the nearest organic homosapien.] His language was confusing to Sleaze. He had never heard such a strange language from any Diamond dog, let alone from any other species traveling here. [Last warning Equine. The signature for the homosapien was near a town called Good Springs. I need to inquire more data to precede with its elimination.] He warned him, tightening his grip on the stallions throat.

“I don’t know what you are saying- dammit speak Equestrian!” Sleaze shouted, accidentally losing more of what precious little air he had left and only succeeding in speeding up his near death. The Diamond dog stayed silent for several seconds before bringing the stallions face closer to his own, showing Sleaze his emotionless, glowing red eyes. “Where is Good Springs?” he questioned the frightened stallion. Hearing his cold dead tone made Sleaze McGee all but blurt out the location.

“J-just take t-this road down here and it will t-take you there- I promise!” The timid stallion said, pointing with his right index finger to the north road before being dropped back to the ground and gulping much needed air. He looked back up and saw his naked attacker still looking at him with his soulless red eyes.

“I told you where it is, so don’t come any closer to me!” pleaded the weak earth pony, putting his hands to his face to block the emotionless gaze from the Diamond dog. The standing Biped lifted his left hind leg and smashed the stallion’s head, making the limp body gush out its crimson liquid, spraying it all on the gravel floor. Without a second thought the cold killer crouched down and undressed the stallion, stole is cloths and walked down the pointed path told by the what was now lift of the earth pony.

[I am proceeding to eliminate 1 of the humans living on this planet. When main objective complete, I will send the signal to send more drones to eliminate this planet.] said the lone killer heading down the road to his new destination to find the first target on his mission. Wearing the dead old stallion’s dirty green dress shirt and shorts with spots of wet blood still on the color, he walked down the path before him. In an early morning of the town of No Vac at 5:00, a worker found her boss on the floor with his head smashed and his clothes stolen. She quickly reported the murder to the local guard. It will be the day when the entire planet of Equis will discover that they are not alone in their world.

First friend

The road to town was always a quiet walk for Light since his house was far from the general public, and walking gave him time to gaze at the scenery before arriving at his dreaded destination. “Today's the big day- time to take the Generalized Occupational Aptitude Test to see what my true calling is in life!” Light sped up his pace, making his view of the town larger every step he took. Light would normally have been hesitant to even set on hoof in that town, let alone that den of monsters they call a school. But not today! Today is the annual G.O.A.T and since most of the fillies and colts don’t have their cutie marks, including Light, the board of education decided to make the test to see what their soon to be cutie marks would be before discovering it. Just thinking of it made Lights jog turn into a full on sprint to the school with the hopes of finally turning from a blank flank and to a normal pony. Passing by the residence of Good Springs his sights were locked on the school, seeing full grown adults talking their children into taking the test, even when their colts and fillies didn't want to and learning on their own that they never had a choice to begin with. Just as Light was about to slow down his right leg was kicked back, causing him to fall forward and hit the dirt road leading to the entrance of the school and resulting in all of the young ponies to burst out laughing at him, including some silent snickering from the adults nearby looking at his accident. Lifting his head up he cradled his throbbing arm with his left to check for any serious injuries and looked around to see who made him trip.

“Way to make an entrance, right L?” an obnoxious voice said behind him. Light then felt a pair of hands grab the back of his shirt, lifting him off the ground and on to his feet. Making a 180º turn he saw three ponies looking at him, their muzzles showing smirks at his public humiliation.

“I give it 6 out of 10, any of you agree?" Like always Crush was wearing the same sleeveless shirt, and khaki blue shorts with his cutie mark as a large blue diamond being shattered by a hammer on his right arm.

“Thought he was going to have at least a nose bleed- oh well, a filly can dream.” Said Dawn, her pale blue shirt that was showing her stomach and short tight white pants that were hugging her legs made Light blush slightly and look away, making her laugh even harder. Her Cutie mark was an orb of light with the half of it shattering to pieces on her right thigh.

“A pity I wasn’t able to take his bits before you picked him off the dirt, Dawn.” Swipe said, looking back at Dawn. She was wearing a small tube top that made her breasts seem larger than they were, but was most likely due to her push up bra. At her waist was a pair of long pale purple pant legs with a loose belt showing her cutie mark of a hand with objects in its grasp.

“Thank you for helping me off the floor Dawn.” Mumbled Light, turning away as his left arm was grabbed by Swipe and Crush, making him stop in his tracks. “Were not done here punk.” Insisted Dawn, moving in front of him to see the look of fear in his eyes. Putting her right hand on his head she pulled on his hair to force Light to look at her.

“Since we all have to take this stupid test because of blank flanks like you, that means that you have to make sure that when you finish the exam you have to switch mine with yours.”
“Right. Of course, just please let me get to class- I’m going to be late.” Said light. Dawn motioned her head to make Crush and Swipe to release him.

“There's going to be trouble since you’re already late for class idiot.” Swipe said

“Wait- what do you mean? I’m only 5 min-“before he could finish the three bullies bolted to the front entrance, leaving Light all alone at the front of the school struggling to catch up to them. Putting both hands to the handle of the door he tugged it to open only to hear a loud *Chick-click* from the other side of the door.
*BANG-BANG* “Hello? Please open up- I’m going to be late!” *BANG-BANG* “Is anyone there?” *RING-RING* *RING-RING* it was too late. “Great, now I’m late,” Stated Light, “...Looks like today is going to be better then I hoped.” He said with a sad smile.

10 minutes later

After getting one of the janitors to help him unlock the door Light was able to get to his class before Ms. Booker could notice him since she was busy taking roll call. “Alright and finally *Sigh* Lighting Shimmer.” She looked to her class to see Light at the end of the class room, signaling his presence with a “Here”.

“Ok class, as you all know today is the G.O.A.Tand this test allows those without a cutie mark to be able to see if this will be his or her true calling.” She passed the test to every student, but instead of passing one to Light she asked a filly in front of him to pass his test then walked quickly back to the front of the class.

“Now, you have no time limit to answer these questions and I will read you the questions to make them more understandable, you can also take this test at your own pace and hand it to me when you are finished.” She looked around the class to make sure all the students had listened to her instructions so she could start the test. “Very well, let us begin with question 1: 'While working as an intern in the Clinic, a patient with a strange infection on his leg stumbles through the door. The infection is spreading at an alarming rate, but the doctor has stepped out for a while'. What do you do?”
A. Amputate the leg before the infection spreads
B. Scream for help
C. Medicate the infected area to the best of your abilities
D. Restrain the patient, and merely observe as the infection spreads

Hearing the question finish, Light heard loud scratches of pencils scribble furiously on paper. Looking back at the questions Light decided to choose the answer best suited for him and waited for the teacher to read the second question.
“The second question is: 'You discover a young colt lost in the lower levels of the castle. He's hungry and frightened, but also appears to be in possession of stolen property.' What do you do?”
A. Give the colt a hug and tell him everything will be OK
B. Confiscate the property by force, and leave him there as punishment
C. Pick the colt's pocket to take the stolen property for you, and leave the colt to his fate
D. Lead the colt to safety, and then turn him over to the gaurds

Light scribbled his answer and then quietly listened for the teacher to read the next question.

“Okay, almost done. Here is question 3: 'Your grandmother invites you to tea, but you're surprised when she gives you a knife and orders you to kill another town resident.' What do you do?
A. Obey your elder and kill the town resident with the knife.
B. Offer your most prized possession for the resident's life.
C. Ask granny for an axe instead. After all, you don't want to miss.
D. Throw your tea in granny's face.

Light was a bit hesitant about answering this question since it sounded a bit…..dark for a young teenager to answer, but none the less answered and waited to hear the final question.

“This is the final question, so be sure to answer wisely. The question is: 'Who is the most important pony in Equestria? Hint: she who shelters us from the harshness of dark evil, and to whom we owe everything we have, including our lives.
A. The princesses
B. The princesses
C. The princesses
D. The princesses

Before he could fill in the answer he stopped and re-read the question to see if it was just a mistake. There was no mistake. The question actually had the same answer 4 times in a row. Light was surprised at this and looked around the class to see if the other were seeing the same problem. The rest of the class did stop writing. In fact, all of them seemed to have troubled expressions on their faces. Looking at the front right desk he spotted dawn with sweat pouring down her head, still trying to wrap her thoughts on how to answer the final question. Going the rest of the class he answered the question then walked to the right side of the class to turn his paper to the teacher.

Dawn was still on the final question before spotting Light near her desk. Slowly she moved her right leg out to trip Light, leaving his paper on the ground and gave Dawn ample time to switch her paper with is before he got back up, gave the teacher the wrong paper, and went back to his desk to wait for the other students to finish. Waiting a couple of minutes she got out of her desk and handed the teacher her paper and waited for the results.

End of the class

“Ok, kids settle down and line up to see what you’re calling is going to be.” One by one the kids lined up behind each other to see their results before going out the class in either an angry fit of what they are so called to be or in a large burst of tears of what they don’t want to be. Dawn was in front of him so he could hear what Ms. Booker was going to tell her who she was supposed to be. “Ok Dawn, I was waiting to talk to you about this test,” Said Ms. Booker. “Yes ma’am, I hope it was not too terrible,” Said Dawn

“Terrible? It was great! Dawn, it seems you have a bright future to be a great leader in your life like perhaps a mayor, or even something greater!” Said Ms. Booker giving Dawn a pat on the back and motioning Light to be next. *Sigh* “Lightning Shimmer, how is your father? “

“He’s doing fine at the barn, Ms. Booker.” Said Light

“You know I want what is best for your father, which is what made me want to make sure you got the most education.”
Giving her his test back light looked at his results of his test; his eyes grew large at what his results are. Waste Management Specialist. "It says here you're perfectly suited for a career as a Waste Management Specialist. A specialist, mind you, not just a dabbler. Congratulations."

Light could not contain the amount of depression he has learned from his result. Looking up at the teacher he sees her neutral face not showing any sympathy for his recent revelation. Turning his sights Light sees Dawn hiding her amused face from him. “There has to be some mistake!” Shouted Light, tears threatening to burst from his eyes.

“There is no mistake with the test Light; if your calling is Waste Management then it is what it is.” She then pointed her left finger to the door. “If you wish to complain, go to the principal’s office if you want a re-take.”

Dashing outside into the hallway he spotted other ponies like him, all of their dreams of being what they wanted, all crushed due to the unfair tests. Pushing ahead of all the sad faces he headed for the office to complain about the unfair results of his test. Not once hearing the silence when entering the office, it was supposed to be full of faculty workers organizing events for the students, but instead it showed not even one living soul in the large room. Light was beginning to have second thoughts on the matter, but before he knew it was already in front of the principles door.

*Knock-Knock* “Hello? Principle Files?" *Knock-Knock* "It’s me: Lightning Shimmer. I’m coming in so please don’t be-" Light didn't get to finish his sentence as he laid his eyes on the scene before him.

The principle was indeed in the office, as well as the assistant principle, the janitor that helped hem unlock the door and also what looks to be 2 teachers and 4 students no older than him. But the part that made him freeze was the wide eyes of the limp bodies, bent and twisted shapes in forms that should've never been possible. Their glazed over eyes stared lifelessly at Light, mirroring the reflection of his frightened face in their lifeless husks.

“Subject sighted. Proceeding to eliminate potential threat.” Said a cold, emotionless tone. Lifting his eyes he saw a shadow on the seat of the principles chair. Getting off the chair he slowly walked around the mangled corpses, to be only inches away from Light.

Light was surprised to see a pony almost exactly like him, but with different features: a strong jaw line, a mass of muscles reaching from his arms to his chest, a furless body and extra fingers, but most of all his red eyes, showing nothing but a cold, emotionless glare. Light was surprised to see some pony like him, but that emotion was quickly forgotten at the realization that the large stallion in front of him was the cause of the 9 murders right behind him. With a quick turn he ran out of the office and started to shout out for help. “HELP! SOMEPONY! HE-GAH!” The large stallion grabbed Lights throat, forcing him to stop calling for help. “Human child, you are here by terminated.” Said the bulking stallion. Lifting Light off of the ground, he threw him with enough force in his arm to make Light’s body break not one brick wall, but Break all the walls leading to the outside front of the school, leaving a large hole in the ground where Light crashed.

However, the sound and damage was enough to make the school to assemble where the Stallion was as well as the ponies he murdered. “AHH! SOMEPONY CALL THE GUARD!” Shouted a nearby teacher who was close enough for the him to grab her neck and with a quick *SNAP* her body went limp, was lifted off the ground and went sailing out of the schools window, landing miles away from the town.

“Everypony evacuate the school! Sound the alarm to alert any nearby guards!” Shouted Swipe, leading the rest of the students to the emergency exit. Dawn was already half way out of the school so she could warn the security office when she heard her friends scream about what was happening and told them what was happening just outside the school.

“Species Equine have started to go hysterical. Probability of wide scale security is 85%. Switching to genocide mode.” Turning around and entering the principal’s office he punched a hole in the wall and grabbed a large piece of rebar and headed out to clear any living creature that would hinder his plan. The guards couldn't arrive fast enough due to them being on the other side of the town, but worse is that the school still held many civilians in the building. All of the teachers and students were evacuated out of the building though.

All but one that is. Diamond Crush was hiding inside the janitors closet, clutching a broom handle as some form of a weapon. Diamond was supposed to be heading with the other students to the exit, but was separated when another class of students collided with his class leaving him all alone in the school. His mind was racing a thousand miles a minute trying to think of a plan. “Somepony, anypony, help me.” He whispered, praying to the princesses for any miracle that would save him. *Click* Crush looked out the door with a smile on his face, glad that his prayers were answered. But his smile turned to a frown when the guards he was hoping for were instead one large, furless pony like Light, who was hold a rebar with large drops of blood plopping to the floor, forming a large puddle. Crush was about to swing the broom to the murderer before he felt a searing pain form in his right shoulder. Looking at the shoulder he saw that the rebar the pony was holding only a few seconds ago embedded into his shoulder and sticking out his back.
“AHHH-mph” Crush was silenced when the stranger’s left hand covered his mouth to silence him. Still praying twice he waited for anypony to save him in his time of need.

LIGHT’S POV

Darkness. That’s all I see. No light. No sound. I guess that’s what death feels like. Dammit, I don’t want to die! Come on get up! Get up and fight!

Slowly I felt small jolts of motion coming from my arms to my hands and fingertips. My body was slowly getting back up from the damaged caused by that stallion that did this to me. I was glad and happy to still be able to be alive, but that was soon lost when a realization came over me. He killed those innocent ponies in cold blood! No emotion from him at all. Not even a hint of remorse. How am I supposed to fight him?! Why do I even think about fighting him?!?!

'It’s in your nature of course.'

“What the...?” opening my eyes and getting back up my feet I looked around to see only white. I was freaked out, of course, but was even more freaked out when I saw another hairless stallion in the center of the room. He was by far younger than the stallion I met at the school, but showed signs of still being a teenager.

“Where am ??” I asked him.

“You are in the white room, Mr. Light” He said.

“Then am I-“

“Dead? No. A feeble attack like that won't kill you.”

“Feeble? He tossed me like a I was nothing!” I shouted.

“Trust me when I say this, but you have not yet begun to show your true colors light.”

“What are you saying ‘true colors’? I’m just a normal pony who got my flank kicked!”

“Yes, you did, *Chuckle* but enough jokes. It’s time you got up and fight that terminator before the town gets destroyed.” He informed me.

“You mean that crazy killer? No way! When I wake up I’m going to warn my parents so we can get out of this place!” I said, looking around the endless white to see any forms of escape.

“*sigh* I was not hoping to do this but...” Lifting his left hand out he snapped his fingers.

“AHH! SOMEPONY! SAVE ME!” Shouted a pony before a loud *CRACK* made him go silent.

“What was that noise?” I asked, frightened about what the answer might be.

“Another victim killed by the terminator.” He stated.

“Well, a guard will stop him- so there! Problem solved!”

*tsk-tsk* “Not that easy, my boy and you know it.” He then snapped his fingers again as more screams of pain sounded, leaving me covering my ears in hopes to stop the constant shouting.

“Help me please!” *CRUSH*

“STAY AWAY!” *SMACK*

“PLEASE NO!!” *CRACK*

"DAMMIT MAGIC CAN'T WORK ON THIS THING RETR-" *CRUNCH*

“Stop this now!” I shouted at him, still covering my ears.

“Stop what? The countless screams of the innocent being extinguished due to that monster in different skin? Why won't you see that you serve a higher purpose than what you've been made to believe?”

The young man then grabbed me by my collar and shouted in my face “Stop being what they want you to be and do what your kind was born to do!”

“And what’s that then?!” I asked, still questioning unsure if I'm really not dead.

He was silent for a few seconds before having a smile cross his face, adding to the feeling of me already being uncomfortable with the fact that he is still invading my personal space.

“To fight, of course.” Before I could ask he pushed me into the endless white that soon shattered into blackness. Looking back, I saw him still smiling at me before the dark fully engulfed me.

3rd PERSON

*Gasp* “What happened?” asked Light, still woozy from the crash.
Climbing the rubble he sees his town school evacuated and what seems to be the half of the town as well. He should be scared at the result of what one lone pony has done, but was more astonished to see that his supposed injuries did not show on his body but instead only his clothes that are now just tattered scraps of fabric. Still questioning what was happening to him, he heard a loud scream and snapped out of his thoughts and looked toward the school.

“Somepony’s in still in the school!” he said, rushing into the school he sprinted toward where he thought the scream had come from.

“I’m on my way- don’t worry!” he shouted. Running through every hall, he found himself wondering ‘what am I doing?’ and ‘why aren’t I running away?’ but before he could answer either of these questions he spotted the pony in distress. It was Diamond Crush, who was kneeling on the floor with a long piece rebar sticking out of his shoulder. What made him the most enraged though was that the monster that who had turned his peaceful school into a slaughter house was standing right behind Crush with another rebar in his hands. His jog turned into a full on sprint making him look like a blur as he collided with the beast. Unable to see who saved him Crush heard a loud *CRASH* he turned around to see a large hole showing the outside of the building and an exit for him to escape.

Miles away from town

Light only wanted to shove him away from him so Crush could run. He didn’t intend to be miles away from town with a psycho killer because of a little ‘shove’. Now not only has he found some hidden strength at the completely wrong time to discover it, but because of it he's alone with the killer!

“Alright you asshole where were we?” Light said without meaning to.

“Question: How are you able to withstand my attack and still hold so much power?”

“Don’t know and don’t care, the only thing I do care about right now is beating the stuffing out of you!” Light dashed toward the enemy, clenched his right fist and connected it to the right side of the stallions face, making him lose his stance and hit the ground with a loud *THUD*. Light was glad he was able to land the first blow but did not satisfy his thirst for payback.

“THIS *Slam* IS FOR TRYING TO KILL ME!” he shouted as he slammed his left fist down toward the stallion’s head, causing him to slam deeper into the ground.

“THIS *SMASH* WAS FOR KILLING INNOCENT PONIES!” Light smashed his right fist to the stallion’s stomach, deepening the crater he had already created.

“AND FINALLY!” He raised his right fist again and aimed it at the hairless stallions head and brought it down again. “THIS IS FOR ALL OF THOSE YEARS OF NIGHTMARES!” his final blow though never even connected with the monsters head. With quick reflexes the killer stopped Lights fist and looked back at the teen to show what he truly was. Instead of flesh and bone under his skin there was metal, dripping black ink and a glowing red eye staring at Light.

“What the -" *Wham* Light, caught off guard by his enemies appearance, didn't have time to block the monsters left fist, making him fly out of Light’s make-shift trench and onto his back.

[Massive damage to cranium and upper torso by 95.5% requesting immediate rerouting to reserve power for final strike time in 3…2…1 ignition.]As the metal pony climbed back out of its would-be grave it started to glow a dark red and ran to Light who was still dazed by the sucker punch he had received. Lifting his head he spotted the metal creature running towards him and without a second thought Light sprung up and chargedl.

“Come on then!” Light shouted, raising his right fist and slamming it into the metal pony’s skull before a bright flash engulfed the both of them. The light soon faded, leaving a tattered and slightly burned colt still standing on his two legs and a piece of what remains of the metal ponies shiny metal hand.

“That was just because I hate you.” Said Lightning falling on his back to the ground with a smile before hearing the shouting coming from the residents of town that were soon to find the remains of the aftermath of the battle.

“Crap- can’t let them see me! I’m already freak to them, but like heck I'm gonna let that be proven true.” He lifted himself off of the ground and started running toward his house to explain what happened to him. Oddly enough he was supposed to be badly wounded with cuts and bruises all over his body, but instead more alive than he had in his entire life! He felt like he could fight a dozen more of those monsters with one arm tied behind his back and still have enough energy to be home before dinner. And right now dinner had never sounded so good..

Light’s house

“Mom! Dad!” Shouted Light, entering his home and into the living room of the house waiting for his parents to show.
“Light? Light! Oh, thank Celestia your safe!” Shouted Light’s dad Flash, giving Light a hug before moving away so his mother Shimmer could hold her son in a tight embrace.

“It’s so good to see you dear- we were so worried about you!” She said as tears of joy flowed from her eyes.

“Mom, it’s alright! I’m fine! I’m just covered in scratches, no harm done.” Light reassured her pushing himself out of her death grip that she calls a hug. *Sniff-sniff* “Scratches? What scratches Light?" Said his mom giving light a quick inspection of him.

There was no noticeable damage to his body anywhere. No scars, scratches, not even any burn marks from that giant explosion! The only damage belonged to the clothes he was wearing and nothing else. Turning back to his parents he told them all about what had transpired to him today.

10 minutes later

“And after I heard the shouting from town I decided to run all the way back here to see if you two were alright.” Finished Light finally ending his story “I’m just glad you two were so far away from the trouble.” He stated with a sigh of relief.

“Well son I got to say…wow.” Flash said, still trying to accept the fact that his son did so many extraordinary things. “Were just happy to know that you’re safe from harm,” reassured Light’s mom, “isn’t that right, dear?” asked Shimmer looking at her husband.

Flash stared at his family with a stern expression before walking to the front door. “Son, it’s time I told you something. Honey, you know what to do.” Said Flash, motioning Light to follow him out to the old barn “Son, you know why I never let you go near this old thing?” Flash asked.

“Because it was old and it might fall down at any time.” Said Light following his dad as he entered. It wasn’t much to look at inside, just cob webs, rusted tools, and in the corner a large bulging object covered in a thick cover that was almost missed by Light if he hadn't looked twice. “Well, that’s half the reason, the other half is this.” Flash then grabbed the end of the cover revealing a rusted metal oval.

“What is that?” he asked, moving his right arm to touch the surface of the rusted metal shape. “It’s what you arrived here in, son.” Flash said, making Light freeze and look at his father.

“You arrived here in that thing when you were just a small foal.” Flash said to his son, thinking back to how that flying carriage landed on his property and gave him his son.

“Then does that mean I’m not really you so-“

“Of course you’re still my son!” Flash shouted, then hugging his son in a tight embrace as he felt warm tears begin to flood his eyes.

“No matter what the other ponies say to you, Light, you’re still my son! Ok?”

“Y-yes... Dad.” *Sniff* Light and Flash walked out of the barn and into their house when heard Shimmers sewing machine in her bedroom.

“Son, go to your room and pack your things.” Flash told him.

“Why?”

“You don’t need worry about it, we’ll explain later so just go to your room.” Light nodded and left to pack up his belongings, leaving Flash all by himself.

Parents’ bedroom

*Knock-knock* “You ok, dear?” Asked Flash, standing at the door frame watching his wife's back, Shimmer was still sewing an outfit.

*Sniff-sniff* “J-just fine, dear.” Shimmer said as tears streaked down her face and on to the clothes she was sewing. Walking inside the room he strode to their bed stand where a picture of Light, still a child, with a party hat and a cake during his 2nd birthday party.

Turning to the back of the picture, he took it out of its frame to find a thin, rectangular shape taped behind the photo. Taking the small shape, including the photo, he walked near his wife, gently rubbed her shoulder and gave her a tender kiss.

“We both knew this was going to happen Shimmer, It was just sooner than expected.” Said Flash, holding his wife in a gentle hug until she stopped crying.

“Come on, Shimmer, we need to tell him before he goes.” Silently nodding to her husband, she turned off the sewing machine and folded Light’s new outfit into a wooden case and left with Flash into the living room so they could wait for their son.

After Lightning finishes his packing

Light had with him a large duffel bag holding his cloths and bathroom essentials. Entering the living room he saw his mom and dad holding hands and watching as he arrived, “I’m all packed now.” Light said, looking between them his as his father began to speak.

“Son, when you arrived here a guard had told us that there were a giant number of homicides with you at the center of it all.” His father began, making Light drop his belonging and stare at his father.

“They asked us if you had come back home, but we told them we hadn't seen you yet. However, since they have not yet found you they might return here to take you with them.”

“So the reason I packed my stuff is to leave.” Light said as a statement rather then as a question.

“Yes, Light. We don’t want you to be in some dungeon for crimes you did not commit.” Flash said to his son. He then reached in his pocket to reveal a picture of Light when he was a foal with his parents.

“This is to remember us by, in case you forget or when you stray from the right path.” Flash also took a necklace with the shape of a silver rectangle on it and attached it around Light’s neck.

“This was with you when you came to this planet, son. I think it’s better for you to keep it.” He then stepped away from his son so Shimmer could give Light his parting gift.

Tears were threatening to over-flow again, but giving her son his final gift was more important than her sadness. She gave Light her gift, a square box with a symbol on it that was all too familiar to Light.

“I've added a few things that could help you hide you identity in case trouble ever finds you.” She said, still trembling with the harsh reality of knowing how her precious colt will be all alone in this world without her help.

“I promise to be extra careful when I go out in public, mom.” Light said.

With a few moments of silence Shimmer wrapped her arms around her colt and gave him a tight squeeze. Her son followed, but made sure not to hold her too tight lest she become bent out of shape due to his new found strength.
Light felt a tap on his shoulder to find it was his father behind him, his duffel bag in hand and a map in the other along with a large bag of bits.

“The world is big, Light, so you need to know where it’s safe. This map and these bits will help you on your journey.” Flash handed the items to his son and opened the front door so Light would know it was time to go.

Taking the things he'd need he stepped outside to see that the sunny day was replaced with a starry night sky and with the moon shining the way for all to see. With only 10 steps out of the porch and on to the dirt floor he turned around to see if his parents had changed their mind and would make him stay. *SLAM* Instead all he saw was his own parents close the door on him, signaling him to move ahead. With a *huff* he turned forward and started out of the farm and away from the town of Good Springs. The sound of his parents crying out about the mistakes they had just committed to their only foal as he exited the gate of the farm, still in his ears.

5 HOURS LATER: LIGHT’S POV

I’m cold, tired, and want to go home, but can’t due to the fact that this is not only not my home, but not even my planet! *sigh* Guess I'll just keep going and see what lies ahead for me. Reaching under my new set of clothes I took out my necklace to look at the trinket my father had given me. It was nothing more then a thin, rectangular piece of silver.

“Jeez, I thought this was supposed to be some sort of high tech alien artifact, but it’s just a piece of junk.” I said, twirling the object around in my hand.

“Now that’s just about the rudest way for introduction I've ever heard!” Shouted a voice right next to me. Turning around I took a fighting stance so I was ready to face any guard, bully, metal pony, or any other ponies that would make my day worse!

“Show yourself!” I shouted, still in my fighting stance.

“Now you see, this is going to be hard since *chuckles* I can’t really show any more than I already am.”

“Stop playing games and show me where you are!” I shouted, clenching my fists tighter before hearing a loud choking sound from my right hand. Looking at my right hand I saw my necklace……that was now showing a ...GLOWING BLUE EYE?!

“AHHH!!!!!” I shouted, tossing my necklace in the air.

“CATCH ME! CATCH ME! CATCH ME!” My necklace shouted, snapping me out of my fear and quickly snatching it before it hit the ground.

“Y-you actually caught me.” My necklace said, its voice full of astonishment at my actions.

“Well, it was pretty easy. I mean, come on, what's so hard about catching something you just threw up into the air? You just need to keep your eye on the ball…or rectangle, I guess.”

“You say that, but I can tell you that not all can actually catch me even if I were sphere shaped,” the rectangle said to me.

"Ok then... well I guess introductions are in order then: I’m Lighting Shimmer, nice meeting you…..umm?”

“Oh, of course, how silly of me. I forgot to tell you my name! Well I guess when you are on standby for 16 years, 5 hours and 30 seconds you tend to lose track of time-“

“Hey! Focus colt…filly……whatever you are !”

“Oh, right of course! *Cough-cough* Hello human, my name is Wheatley.”

It seems that Light won't be as lonely as he thought he would be on his journey.

Author's Note

And......were back folks! How's life treating ya'll? Me well I still have some issues with some things but I try to fix them one day at a time. Looks like light has his first friend but with a different look then he imagined.

Come back next time for the next chapter! might not be a while but I will try to make it before thanks giving break.

I also like to thank my editor/rock/best friend for the wonderful editing on her part and hope she can still help me with up coming chapters.

Going Nowhere

The road Light was walking seemed longer when talking to his new companion; Wheatley. As they were both caught in their own world, not once did they stop talking, even as a few small caravans passed by them and giving light confused stares from ponies, wondering why they were seeing a young, hairless creature talking to himself?

Light was just happy to find someone who was not bound by his pony race that would judge him like the ponies in Good Springs did. And Wheatley was just glad he was finally online to see the new world he had arrived in and who he was assigned to.

“So... the Princesses who rule this country are able to control the sun and the moon?” Wheatley asked Light, staring down at the dirt path.

“Yeah, they do, but both princesses have different times to raise and lower the sun and the moon so their country has a fair amount of both,” Light explained to Wheatley.

“It’s like all of the logic on Earth that explained how the world works has no meaning here what-so-ever .”

“Well, how do think I’m feeling? The Sun and Moon both moving on their own, weather working by itself, nature not needing help and not to mention animals who only help themselves? Makes me wonder how my race survived such harsh conditions.”

“But that just makes your people all the more fascinating!”

“Excuse me?” Light questioned.

“The world you lived in was indeed a harsh place for any living creature, but for some reason throughout all the bad weather, animal attacks and other things Earth has thrown at your kind, you humans just got back up and started all over again.”

“My species were called humans?”

“It’s short for homosapien, with years of evolution to your kind, your people were the only sentient beings to live off of their planet with no other sentient creatures.”

Light was even more curious about who he was and even more about his people and the planet they lived on. the more he thought questioned why he was on a planet so far away from his real home.

“But enough about the past of humans and start talking about you my fleshy friend, due to my systems being knocked out from the crash we need to catch up on 16 years of lessons to teach you about.”

“O-ok. I understand.”

“Excellent! Now I’m sure your foster parents and your school has taught you some basic things in life, but I know there's a lesson you haven't learned yet since you just turned 16.”

“So, what’s the lesson then?”

“Well to begin the lesson I need some items to explain it to you: I need a banana, a sock, and an adult magazine in order to arouse you.”

“What? Why do I need those things?" Light asked Wheatley, his cheeks darkening from his friend’s unusual needs.

“Well, how else am I supposed to teach you? Then again, I might just need the one adult magazine and your left or right hand to be in your pants while you look at the picture, so that could work if you want?”

“NO!”

“Fine then, back to 20 questions! You ask first.”

Light stopped walking and contemplated on what to ask, he wanted to ask ‘who made you?’ or ‘why was he here’, but the only question he could focus on was out of his mouth before he meant it to.

“What happened to Earth?”

The silence from Wheatley after his question made him nervous to hear the answer.

“It’s gone.”

“What do you mean 'gone'?”

“I mean that I answered your question and you only have 19 more, so don’t waste them!”

“Well, what happened to the human race?”

“Also 'gone'. Next question. You only have 18 left.”

“Fine! Then tell me why you are dodging my questions.”

“I’m not.”

“Yes- you are so tell me now!”

“Their gone because their all dead!” everything seemed to freeze.

“What do you mean 'dead'?” Light breathed.

To put it lightly, both Earth and the human race are gone.”

Light's heart felt like it was breaking into pieces over the people he had never known and now never will. He wanted more than anything to turn around and go back home to where he at least had living parents that loved him, and to forget everything that had happened.

“...What happened?” Light said to Wheatley, clutching both of his hands together so he could hide their shaking.

“Ok I'll tell you, but this may take a while so you just stay quiet and listen to me; and don’t just stand their! Keep walking it’s dangerous to stay on the road for so long.”

Placing one foot in front of the other Light began to listen to the tale of a society gone before it’s time even began.

The beginning

The earth was indeed the home to a sentient society called humans and they lived in a harsh world that only few could survive. It was said that humans should have been long gone due to massive natural disasters and the terrible sickness' that had plagued each of their dwellings. However, instead of fading into the darkness like so many other creatures that had roamed the Earth, humans broke free from the chains of animal life and had created a way of living that would bend to their wills. Years of being prey to so many creatures made them only stronger and more resilient to any obstacle and by fighting back with their own weapons they became more than any threat to either prey or predator, it made them the monsters.
Rewinding to the time before the wiping out of humanity and the planet, the humans were at the peak of a golden age of both science and medicine. Ironically, as they built weapons that would soon destroy vast amounts of lives, they also at the same time built machines that would heal the wounded and cure the sick. They lived in buildings that pierced the skies and deep below in blue waters. Even in space, where no air can ever be, humans were able to live on the moon. The environment that was once a cruel and terrifying place to the humans was now the home to millions of lives.

Although the peace never lasted very long. Resources were beginning run out just as overpopulation began to take hold. The world was on the verge of collapse as the humans grew and the resources shrunk. Countries began to lose trust one another and began building machines that took lives once again. Gun companies like Atlas, Dahl, Jakobs and other major manufactures were the only winners in the fight for arms while the countries that bought their merchandise continued to suffer.

World leaders knew that bombs, guns, and chemical weapons were useless wastes of money and lives. Governments thought to replace soldiers with machines in an effort to stop the bloodshed and in doing so created Skynet, but they were ruthless and held no emotion for even the human soldiers they were allied to. Skynet soon lost all military contracts and was scrapped before it ever truly began. The second was an independent company called Aperture, who seemed promising with their tools and with their free thinking machines, in fact Aperture was sure to get any military contract it had wished. Unfortunately though, the director died before even getting the government’s favor and soon the facility was bought out by none other then Skynet.

With Skynet now in possession of the free will program, the machines soon became self-aware and became more inept with military tactics. Humans thought it was better to send out Skynets machines instead of human soldiers who would have had family and friends waiting for them at home, but all of the fighting was nothing more than a front for Skynet's true plans. With countries using more machines than human military, it became apparent that humans no longer needed military training since they had the robots to protect them. Military intelligence was also beginning to rely too much on Skynet, leaking all secrets, tactics and forbidden weapon blueprints to the machines. It was soon all too clear that Skynet was taking control of all Earth military's, but not a single human noticed what was happening until it was to late to stop it.

I don’t know when Skynet launched all of the nuclear missiles on the Earth, but it was all too clear who won. It was ironic to know that human hands which had created these weapons in order to save their countries, had instead built machines that managed to exterminate almost every life on Earth, but if only that was enough. With the one obstacle out of the picture Skynet soon ventured into space where it will wipe out any other forms of life it finds throughout the universe.

End of story

“Now you know what happened to your kind and hopefully are more thankful for being alive.” Wheatley said to Light.
The story made Light feel proud of where he had come from, but at the same time frightened of what his kind would do when pushed with fear and desperation. How could such an intelligent race soon turn to nothing from the machines they had built in order to protect themselves?

“If the human race is destroyed, then why am I here?”

“Luckily some Aperture co-workers still held some Aperture equipment and was able to make escape rockets that were assigned to different planets, holding some forms of sentient life.”

“Then what about you?”

“I am an A.I. or Artificial Inelegance also assigned with the escape craft. I was a prototype A.I. so Skynet had no use of me.”

“If that explains why I’m here, then how come I have these abilities?” Light looked to nearby boulder next to the road, walked neared it and pressed his right palm on the rock before making a fist and punching it into rubble.

“That is the one thing I can’t seem to wrap my mind around. Humans aren’t supposed to be able to do those things you did, let alone be able face off a terminator alone.”

“Great, so not only am I a freak to ponies, I’m also a freak to humanity.” Light said, even more depressed of his situation.

“Oh, cheer up dude it’s not all bad.” Wheatley said, his happy tone back in his voice.

“Then tell me it’s all over then, the terminator I destroyed is the last I will see ever, right?”

“Well.... about that little problem you had.... that was merely a scout.”

“WHAT?!” Light shouted.

“And since it was destroyed, it probably sent a last S.O.S back to the base ship it was deployed from.”

“So there’s going to be more of those things?!”

“Well, the way you say it sounds bad.”

“It is bad Wheatley!”

“That’s why I’m here with you; I’m the one who will keep you alive because you know…bloody hard to survive.”

Light was still worried about when the next threat of terminators that were going to arrive to destroy him when he decided he wanted a break for the night. Reaching into his bag he took out his world map to see any upcoming Inns that were near the road he was walking.

“There seems to be a town called No Vac just a few miles ahead, it’s about to be dark soon so we should stay there for the night.”

“Right. Give the whole body a good old sleep before going on the road again, oh and about going on the road I just happen to remember a song just for this occasion! So, with my very own voice, I sing to you a song:"

“It’s ok Wheatley, I’m perfectly intent on just talk-“

♪“ON THE ROAD AGAIN~ OH I CAN”T WAIT TO GO ON THE ROAD AGAIN~”♫

[Perspective change]

Walking along the lone, rocky road, still listening to Wheatley who sounds like a stallion withering in pain, another thought crosses into my mind.

'Will I find others like me here, on Equestria? Can I beat Skynet before it reaches this planet and destroys it, just like it did on Earth'? The more I think about it the more tired I get.

Reaching into my pocket I fished out the picture of my parents with me as a foal and stared at it as if hoping for answers to appear. 'I wish you could help me mom, dad, but now I know I need to do this on my own.' I slowly slid the picture back into my pocket an began to look for the town No Vac.

My eyes soon set sight on the town up ahead, making my pace quickly switch to a jog as I closed in on a Inn just up ahead. The inn that literally was called 'No Vac'. the same name as the town. Looking at other buildings I could see many having signs that read ‘full house, no more rooms’ and other words saying telling travelers that their closed.

Walking to the entrance of the inn, I saw the welcome sign of entering No Vac next to the building. Just below the name of the town, it reads ‘Your one night stay is our one night pleasure.’ Hopefully I won’t get anything from just one night staying here when using their bed.

Going nowhere faster

Perspective: Light

I was walking without my shoes on a soft bright green field out of the forest I always explore in my dreams to find myself finally outside of the demented place and see acres of open flat lands with a giant city made of entirely of bright metal and glass. The building were huge that reached the clouds and above, flying metal birds souring in the sky with ease, and on the ground stood a giant playground where I saw hairless diamond dogs playing with their children.
But with a closer inspection I see beings just like me with a familiar face to each one of them.

A young looking human filly was wearing a orange t-shirt, with light blues shorts that resemble Dawn who was playing catch with what appears to look like the human version of both Swipe with her signature braids and dark blue dress and Crush with his purple kid muscle shirt and khaki shorts. The looks that they have was innocent and full of happiness, which is more I can say about the pony version of themselves in my world. My gaze soon shifted to an even smaller child playing on the see-saw, the boy was wearing a red shirt and blue shorts with a yellow belt holding the trousers. He looked like there was nothing important in the world beside that see-saw that he was sitting on with no one to play at the opposite end.

“Sweetie what are you doing?” said a familiar voice across the playground.

My sights snapped to the young slender female walking to the lonely child, the young women was wearing a bright yellow spring dress with flowers with glitter making it shimmer in the sunlight. Her soothing voice was making me walk toward the happy group of adults and kids before a metal fence came between me and them out of thin air. I lifted both my hands, gripped the fence and started to try shaking the metal barrier hoping my super strength will break it but gave no success and leaving me to only look from afar to the mother and child.

“Hey you two, what are you guys doing?” A second voice said.

My eyes widened and my grip around the fence tightened, the person walking to the mother and her child was a young looking man with his broad shoulders being covered by a dirt covered thick dress shirt, stained jeans, and dirty working boots. With the mother and father playing with their son made me realize that the family was not just ‘any family’ but my ‘own family’! They were just turned to human versions to look like me, they all look so happy without a care in the world. And that just made me sadder about my current state right now. I am now alone (besides Wheatley) and now on the run from the town’s local guards that seem to only care about catching anything that is not like a pony and putting the blame on me for the multiple homicide in Good Springs. Which brings me back to the life I am now on the open road with the clothes on my back, extra belongings in my single luggage, and an advanced A.I from my planet that was destroyed by the machines they created to ‘prevent’ the situation in the first place.

*Sigh* “I only been gone halve a day and I’m already dreaming about you mom and dad, and even more depressing is that I’m dreaming about my bullies only in a human child version!”

I stared at the group full of happy humans before a loud deafening sound erupted from the shining future city. The children began to cry, their parents coming to their pleas and cradled them with their arms hoping to protect them from any danger.

“No, no, no! Not again! Why now?” I yelled trying to break the fence and run to my dream family before stopping to see the city to watch what was erupting out of the buildings.

A large dome of bright light was blanketing over the city with anything it can engulf in itself. With new found adrenaline coursing through my veins I desperately tried to break the fence with still no results of it breaking.

“Look out! Hurry! Run away now before it’s too late!” I shouted but no one listened to my voice but only huddled close to each other for sharing their final hours together.

The first to be gone was Crush with his parents still holding him, then next was swipe clutching her father for protection from the scary light about to eat her, next came Dawn with tears streaming down with snot flowing out her nose her parents held their daughter with closed arms and closed their eyes knowing their lives were over, and finally was my human family still holding each other and closing their eyes. Their once happy smiles and bright happy filled eyes soon became hollow and their bodies soon turn to bone then to ash from the white wall passing in it.

“No….” I said my knees became weak that it could not hold my weight before I fell to the ground.

The light was growing all the larger with no sigh of stopping; I should probably pick myself up and run right? Try and escape the giant white dome of death that just killed my kid self and human family? Doesn’t matter really since I’ve been through this dream before, it was the surprise of seeing my parents and bullies in human version that caught me off guard the most. The light was still heading my way and soon was inches away from eating me like all the others. I really don’t care anymore but I still feel the burning pain when the light soon enveloped my body before seeing nothing but white. The oddest part was that I was happy seeing a dream like this.

After all I still saw my parents in a weird way as well as my childhood bullies for a sense it was the first dream I was glad to have a nightmare of.

[Real World-First Person]

“AAHHHH!” *Gasp* *Gasp* I looked around the dark room before my eyes can adjust to the low lighting of the rented room. My bed sheets were scattered on the bed, sweat on my white t-shirt and my pants half around my legs.

For a moment I looked like was taken advantaged of but quickly moved my eyes to find my only companion sleeping on the wooden drawer next to the rented bed.

“Hey Wheatley you awake?” I asked nudging him with my left hand.

“WAAH! Catch me, Catch me, Catch me!” Wheatley screamed his bright blue eye swearing around his eye socket.

“Calm down it’s me Light remember?”

“Huh? Oh! Yeah! Exactly why I was …um using my alert system.”

“By screaming like a little girl.” I deadpanned.

“Hey I’m not the one waking sleeping A.I’s now am I meat bag.”

“Sorry about that I just needed somepo- I mean some’one’ to talk to.” I lowered my head in shame for the rude wakeup call I gave my friend.

“Hey now don’t be so glum my mammal chum.” Wheatley said softly.

“I just need some things to learn, about my race and all.”

“Well if that what you want then I can teach you a thing or two about the ways of humans.”

“Really?” I asked him.

“I have been asleep for over my designated time frame I’m pretty sure I can stay awake for a couple of hours.”

“Thanks! I appreciate your helpfulness.”

"Great then let’s begin the lesson starting out with basic words, better known as curse words.”

I’m pretty sure I can learn a thing or two that I can apply with equine society with the utmost respect for human way of life.

“Let’s start at the word you human always use both bad and good, the word we learn first is ‘fuck’.

Did I say pretty sure, I meant to say kind of sure it will help me.

[Several Hours later]

“And that takes the lesson of the simple words and turning them into words many parents frown upon their kids when they say it.” Wheatley said ending the lesson and pretty sure sparing me from boredom.

“Oh thank goddam time it’s finally over!” I exclaimed.

“Well look whose using curse words already.”

“What can I say I had a good teacher to learn from.”

“Dam bloody straight you do.” Wheatley replied.

I’ve spent so much time talking with Wheatley that I failed to see the morning glow of the sun was piercing though the black curtains to show it’s already morning. Getting off the bed I straighten my shirt and pulled up my pants and opened the curtains to let the rays shower over me with its radiance.

“What do we do now Light?” Wheatley said cutting the silence.

“Well where out of the town’s law so the local guard have no jurisdiction here making us free.” I said still staring outside the window to see other hotel rooms, stores, and other places open to sponge off of tourists that wander over these parts of Equestria.

“So then what do ponies do for fun?” he asked me.

“We started to learn to make moving film work in color now.” I stated to him. It was with a unicorn named Astral projection that stumbled upon the accident when she was fusing magic based color from rainbows with black and white film.

“WOW! Moving picture! With colors! That’s amazing!” Wheatley said sarcastically.

“Ok I get it Wheatley you’re the most advanced and only high tech being in Equestria.”

"What are you talking about? it is amazing that these ponies already grasp the ability to use motion picture."

"Then I'm pretty sure there should be a theater in this town, it is a tourist trap after all."

I grabbed Wheatley and put him around my neck ant went outside to feel the fresh beams of the sun bath over me before strolling over to the main cashier room for one more night stay. The front of the entrance was your simple brown door with the paint slowly coming off the wood and the outer walls. Knocking the door gently and not to hard for the hinges to come off I pronounced my presence then entered inside.

"excuse me miss I wish to stay another night if I can." I asked the mare behind the counter.

The mare was a earth pony with bright green coat, short haired with deep green main, and was wearing a clerks apron covering her pale yellow tank top and bell bottom jeans. She looked very young but still looked older them me by a 3 years, but was mostly surprised to see a very beautiful mare like her being a owner to this dirty establishment.

"Oh of course sir that would be another 40 bits for the night." she said holding out her right hand.

I reached over my pocket to grab the bits and placed them in her soft hand then said "goodbye" and left out the door.

The walk to the theater was a simple at best with how early the day is making the discovery of finding the theater much easier. The entrance of the theater said it was showing a classic 'Spy me a river' staring a celebrity model Fleur de Lis as the main character of a secret agent. apparently it was about how she fell in love with a young colt and defected to be with him and also fighting off the agents that she once worked for. The ticket holder gave me one ticket and I gave him 4 bits and went to theater #6 for the opening credits.

"Mind telling me why aren't we not at the snack bar to get some refreshments?"

"Because I want to see the commercials Wheatley now quiet it's starting."

The large screen soon buzzed with light showing bright colors and a cartoonish earth pony mare wearing a formal dress. She was walking down a road that keeps repeating the same background every 10 seconds. The cartoon soon sees a construction with 3 Grown stallions eating their lunches on one of the metal beams. The one on the right was a bright pink pegasus, the other one was a pale blue unicorn on the left with his hard hat still on his head, and the final one in the middle was a dark orange earth pony eyeing the mare before nudging his friends to look at the mare. the commercial was still only silent motion picture so they still had the sub-titles for the characters to speak.

The Earth stallion said "Hey baby wants some fries with that shake?" the rest of his friend was whistling and laughing at his comment but made the mare confused at the scene before her.

"Stallions doing labor work? how strange." she then started to walk the repeating road before she sees another three stallions with their backs on the all.

In the middle was a earth pony stallion rubbing his knuckles ready to start a fight, the second was another earth pony shifting his eyes left and right like he was hiding something criminal like and the final stallion was a pegasus crouching and flipping a bit with his right hand.

"A group of stallions being delinquents? Even more strange" The subtitled mare said.

She began to look like she had enough of this weird day and decided to return home for the rest of the evening.

The nest area was the mare return home with the drawn sun setting to late evening and the clouds soon covering it's light. with such a long day she was just glad she was out of that crazy town and into a sane house she lives in. All of a sudden a plate was thrown directly at the mare but she ducked her before it can connect to her skull. The one who threw the dinning plate was a young colt that looked like he was barely 14 years old, he was wearing a apron with powder and other ingredients on his clothing, rubber gloves, and was holding a pamphlet saying 'Stallion's rights' in his left hand.

"Cook your own food for yourself!" He then left the stunned older mare before looking at the viewers and raised both her arms and said.

"What has this world gone to now?" she questioned before it was cut to black and replaced with bold words saying.

STOP STALLION RIGHTS OR THIS WILL HAPPEN TO YOU!

[Third person]

As the commercial was complete the room soon turned dark and the movie started to play the opening credits. For over an hour it showed the main character agent 8008 (Fleur de Lis) falling madly in love with colt known as Strife Striker a cyan earth pony and decided to start to quit her agency and be forever with her lover.

Light was so in enwrapped by the movie that he did not hear Wheatley snoring thought the rest of the movie. At the end of the final scene she was fighting her boss a unicorn named Emerald Casing who was pointing her crossbow at a badly wounded Fleur before a deafening sound went off taking the shot away from the two agents.

Fleur looked at herself to check if she was hit but showed no pierced flesh. She then looked at Emerald and saw an arrow bolt between her large breasts before she fell face first to reveal a distraught Striker holding the crossbow before throwing it away and running to his injured marfriend. When he was finally within her embrace again she knelt down in front of him and pulled open a velvet box to reveal a large diamond and proposed to him with hopeful eyes. With tears of joy and relief he shouted "Yes of course I would marry you!" He then jumped and hooked his arms around her neck and gave her a passionate kiss before it panned to a 'The End'.

The lights went back on and the screen was then cut to black giving light the signal that it is over and to proceed to leave the theater and outside the building and back to his hotel room. Light was having a good day since he no longer had to worry about bullies and townsfolk looking at him with disgust and paranoia. he felt like he did not have anymore dark thoughts circling around him any more when he left that dreadful town but was still feeling the loss of his family made his chest tighten and his eyes stings with tears threatening to spill over.

*YAWN*" Well that was a good power nap wouldn't you agree light?" Wheatley asked.

"Huh? What was that?" He asked wiping his eyes before Wheatley can see him.

"Just saying that I needed a good sleep that's all." Wheatley stated.

"Oh, yeah sure."

Light was silent for the remainder of the journey to the hotel with Wheatley still talking about sleeping when the community of No-Vac soon stirred from their rest and starting to open their business for the day. since the ponies have seen different species beside Equine in their town they thought he was a shaved diamond dog or young hairless minotaur making Light relieved he does not have to re-live the Good Springs incident again.

"Hey there good looking!" Shouted a mares voice.

Looking around Light could not find out who was yelling before a second time the shouting told him to look above to find 3 mares on top of a half finished 4 story high building. They were wearing construction hats. vests that seem to tight that it barely reaches their thin but slender mid section, and tool belts over their tight fitting jeans showing their curves. The middle one was a pale white unicorn with a deep purple mane with bright green highlights at the tips of her main was lifting her hand and putting them to her mouth and giving Light a wolf whistle making the rest of the mares laugh.

"what's a cutie like you doing in this town of ours?" said the Mare on the left. She had a amber coat with main and wings sticking out of her back making it clear that she was a Pegasus.

"Maybe he was hoping to find some lucky mares to bring back to his place?" said the mare on the right. Her black fur made her more sliming to the other two and her size was also bigger then the two making him realize that she was a earth pony due to her size and muscles.

"If so then just wait right their we'll be off work soon so we can make sure no bad mares take advantage of you." The unicorn in the middle said before put both her arms under her breasts making them look bigger and lights face even redder before she and the rest of the mares in the construction team bursting with laughing.

"I'm just passing though this town." Light said but still felt uncomfortable talking to grown mares with no other ponies with him.

"Don't be like that baby! We'll give a tour of the town personally" The middle mare said before she started to laugh again.

"sorry I just have to go now so......Bye!" Light shouted and ran from the scene but still heard the cackling laughter of the mares behind him.

[Hotel Room]

Light was on his bed with the covers over his head, trying to clear his mind from the scene that transpired just a few minutes before. Wheatley finally broke the soundless room with a question and said "What just happened Light?"

"Just a bunch of perverts Wheatley so don't worry about it."

" I know that I just wondered the whole female hitting on a young boy thing is all."

"The legal age for colt to reach to stallion in 16 Wheatley and the age for a filly to mare is also 16."

"WHAT! That young!?"

"it's been that way since the time Equestria was built, since mares live longer years then stallions making them the dominate sex in society including most of the world."

"Yeah I get that but, the way they treated you like some fresh meat was kind of......gross" Wheatley said disgustedly.

Light was contemplating on the matter for as long as he can remember, it was always like this for stallions and other species that are male. They show no influence in this world if your not female and are mostly used around the house or as a care taker with the young ones.

"Wheatley the way thing work around this world is-" Light was cut off when a loud *Bang-Bang-Bang* erupted out side his door.

"Excuse me sir are you their?" Asked the mare from the casher register.

"Yes I'm here." He replied.

"OH thank Celestia! I thought you were at the accident near the theater."

"What happened to the theater?" Light said propping himself from the bed.

"Seems the construction near the theater had a accident and a couple of worker are trapped."

"What!"

"Don't worry the guards will be their to help the rescue so just stay in the hotel where it's safe." she in formed Light before he heard her hooves clopping on the concrete floor.

"Wheatley do you no what this means?"

"Yeah I know what you mean, the owner of this hotel must take this job very seriously."

"Not that you aluminum chip!" Light yelled and reached for his bags, taking out his shirts, pants, and undergarments he found the wooden box his mother made and opened the crate to see what's inside.

"Is that what I think it is?" Wheatley said astonished.

"I guess it's time for the big reveal, just didn't think it would be this soon."

"Well what are waiting for? Let's go save them!"

[Accident Sight]

Half of the population was trying to get as many workers out of the crashed building but could not lift the heavy debris that has cut off the rest of the workers escape route to the outside. The fastest pegasus near the area was alerting the guard to help the other survivors from their peril but was still on the thin line between life and death.

The beam holding the heavy solid mass as soon breaking from the sheer amount of reassure it can barely withstand. the beam finally gave in and snapped letting all the debris tumbling to the helpless workers, closing their eyes for the eminent death.

"Are you all alright." Came a mysterious voice said.

The workers eyes opened and looked at the shadowed figure holding the ruble above his head before looking behind the figure and seeing the entrance he made to reach them.

"Go now! I don't know how long I can hold it!" He said his arms slowly shaky to show them that he means it.

One by one the works exit the hazardous area before the last construction mare made it before it all fell down on top of their savior.

"Somepony help him he's still in there!"

"The guards aren't here yet we need to start help-"

"Everypony look at the ruble!" Shouted a random citizen.

The crowd soon diverted their attention to the ruble their noises soon died down when they saw bits and pieces soon rolled down the giant hill of materials.

*Rumble* *Rumble* *Rumble* *Ka-boom* A steel beam flew out of the pile of broken steel and cement and landed near the group with out landing on any on them. the crowed remained stunned at the figure slowly emerging from the ruble and awed at his statue.

Atop the pile was a stallion wearing a blue suit covered by a red cape waving in the no existing air, red boots and underpants and a symbol they do not know what is stands for, and his head coved in blue mask covering his entire face with bright white lenses covering his eyes. The most surprising thing was that even under so much cement, rebar, and steel did this stallion did not show ant pain or fractured limbs as if he him self is stringer the steel.

A tourist soon took snap shot of this lone colored figure as asked "Who are you?" he said making everypony's stare intensify for the mystery hero to answer.

The mask was for concealing his face but it also hides his nervousness of how to approach this situation he is now in. 'What does he call himself?' he thinks sweat purring inside his ask and is inly sweating more with the stares of ponies.

"I'm Superman!" Shouted Wheatley making everypony whisper to themselves before cheering their new hero's names.

"YAY! Superman! shouted happy citizens.

"What!" Light whispered to Wheatley underneath his blue suit.

"The symbol on your chest means the letter 's' which means 'super' and since your a legal age in this world then you are a 'man' so the term 'Superman' is made." explained Wheatley.

The crowd was beginning to grow in sound due to them shouting louder and louder making all the more tourists taking pictures and other sights he does not want be discovered. The guards arrived just before Light jumped in to the air and landed miles away from the city before they try and capture him for questions. One thing is for certain the Equis planet will soon know the hero Superman.

[Next Day]

Holiday inn was the new manager of the No-Vac hotel since the original owner was murdered and had no other kin to own his things. Holiday is a earth pony with a pillow was in her left hand to give to a couple in one of her rented rooms, she was wearing her usual green stripped t-shirt and tight brown pants was being covered by her clerk apron sewed by the picture of her cutie mark that was a Pillow with Z's. Holiday was going to remind Mr. Light that his day of rent is up and that the new with the accident with the construction site because a unknown hero named 'Superman' made his debut with tons of the community in No-Vac and soon will be told around all over Equestria thanks to many tourists taking pictures of his good deeds.

*Knock-Knock* "Mr. Light it's time to get up sir it's already morning." Holiday said though the door.

*Thump* "Ow! Damn it! Hold on Ms. Holiday!" *Crash* "OW-OW-OW" *Slam* "OOWWW!"

The creaked open and Lights head showed for Holiday to see Light disheveled hair and dark ringed eyes to see he did not have a good sleep.

"Sorry about the mess I must look terrible"

"Oh no sir! I hope you are alright."

It's ok just had a bad dream, did I miss anything from yesterday?" Light asked Holiday.

"Oh the most wonderful thing happened! a hero called Superman had single handedly saved a group of construction mares." She informed him.

"Must be some hero."

"Not only that but I heard he has a very slim frame but was able to lift a destroyed 4 story building! *Sigh* such small body but can hold so much weight." Holiday complemented him without realizing his face turning to red.

"Well he must be a swell stallion."

"I wish you could see him but you must be busy with packing, would it be alright to help you?"

"NO!" Light shouted making Holiday surprised.

"I mean, I can take it from here you go on to the front and I will be their to get the bill ok?"

"Ok, goodbye Mr. Light hope you have a save trip, many young colts like you can be taken advantage of." Ms. holiday in formed him.

As the hotel manager the human to his room she did not try to force her way in because if she did then she would see Light covering himself with the door while he was wearing his suit with the mask be hind his back.

*Sigh* "Glad she knocked before entering, she had he keys to the room after all."

"Like I said She is very devoted to her job" Wheatley said still underneath the suit.

Light undressed his super hero garment's and put them back in the his mother's box and putting it with the rest of the regular cloths. He made sure that the room is clean and left the room and headed to the front building to grab his check for the rented rooms and began to move to the next destination. Since the first showing of Superman many more will arrive to see where he might be No-Vac will have a larger income of money, but it will increase the amount of more guard and cameras to reveal his true identity.

"Are you sure you want to leave! Your close to your home, ponies here are at least nice to you, and you can be their local hero." Wheatley said to try and make me stay here permanently.

"The more I stay the more likely the terminators will make this place the first landmark for their invasion so I have to keep moving."

"Then we need to go to the general store to stock up on some items then we can go to the next destination," Wheatley replied before asking "Where are we going again?"

Light took the map from his bag and found the next area to go from here and told Wheatley, "Not a town Wheatley a city just a day and a half on foot."

"Great! What's the City called?" He asked.

"A developing city almost as big as Manehattan Wheatley, and it's called Maretropolis." Light said staring down the large road he first set his feet on since he had to move away from his home.

With a new place to explore and a whole world to see and do their seems to be nothing that can go wrong on his new adventure to find people just like him.

[Unknown Area]

[Are you sure that's the Homosapien is no longer in Good Springs?] said a disembodied voice though a communicator embedded on the wrist of a dark red mare earth pony, she was coved in a pale pink shirt and with long dark jeans with small splotches of fresh blood on it.

[110% correct. I have successfully taken the Equine's primitive camera to find photos of the dressed human.] Stated the undercover terminator. It then looked down to its hooves and stared at the dead tourist with the corpse's neck bent 180 degrees with blood soon flooding the carpet floor.

[Then report back when you have cleaned all the evidence of your presence of that town and follow the human discreetly.] The voice soon went off and the terminator soon turned to its present dilemma.

"Cartilage is 34% thicker then the average human so severing will take more then 2 hours, dissolving the body parts and blood on the floor will take another 3, must find chemicals to dissolve them immediately."

The terminator's right arm soon shifted itself to liquid metal then forms a sharp saw reflecting the mare's glowing eyes to show that it is not a normal mare but another scout ready to take down the human and any other that stands in skynet's path of destruction.

Author's Note

well this chapter is done and it is ready to be read! finally this was done I thought it will never be finished. either way I am glad it is during spring break so I do not have school! yay!

Do not forget to like, favorite and follow me to get new chapters.

Like always this it Brotherhoof12 saying "Happy Spring Break!"

Beware the mare!

Living in a town full of ponies who don't like you for your appearance was hard enough, being in a city full of even more ponies was even more terrible. Wheatley was a real help on teaching me on human culture, the best part about being an alien is having my own outer space language that no one understands. I called four or five ponies giving me the stink eye an asshole in [English] while they just raised their eyebrows at me for the strange sound they heard from me.

The travel to Maretropolis was further then I thought, giving me enough time to start sharpening my skills with super strength and having the time to save a few troubled travelers with being a superhero. The only down fall was that every time I save a distressed civilian the more known I become to Equestria. Terminators start showing up where ever I went, already I destroyed a dozen of those walking tin cans giving me some experience to fighting. It’s still odd on how they keep finding me when I'm in my street clothes and not in costume, I even asked Wheatley how they do it and just said.

“Terminator –X.”

“A what?” I asked him.

“Their these advanced terminators far better than the terminators you’ve been fighting for the past few days, they can shape shift into anything in order to infiltrate and destroy their target.” He explained.

“Then finding this T-X will be more trouble if we stay in a city populated with thousands of other species, is there any way to tell them apart with normal civilians?”

“You can always drop a building on them, see if they can survive.”

“Ok, that’s not helpful, do you know how long before we reach our destination?”

“About four miles to go on foot, do you know what we are going to do when we get there?”

The question he asked me was something I haven’t thought about, maybe I can try and get a job, be a reporter for some newspaper company. Oh who am I kidding, I hate the papers, spouting junk about some random mares saving this and that, I did read a part about some group of costumed heroes other than myself, they could be just like me trying to find more humans.

“I can tell you now Wheatley, things are going to change, and there’s no more worries ahead of us.”

“Yeah, your right Light, from here on out it’s going to be easy sailings.”

[City after dark]

For a city that was supposed to be full of opportunity I really don’t see any opportunities here. Already stepping on the cement walkways of Maretropolis I can smell smoke, sewage waste, and some weird scent I can’t put your finger on. It’s even scarier after dark on the streets, dark alleys, shattered glass, and even some faraway screaming made me have second thoughts of having a life style here.

“We should probably find a place to stay Light, you don’t want to stay in the opening when it gets dark, weirdoes and criminals tend to hang around at this time.”

To prove Wheatley’s statement a mint green mare came out of a corner of a building and flashed me her naked body then ran away before I could register this strange scene.

“Yeah we need a place for the night; I’m going to find a hotel before another pervert shows up.”

For two hours I searched for any vacant rooms to stay but with no such luck, I gave up after the tenth hotel manager said that all rooms were full. Walking another couple of minutes I found an empty playground to rest my feet, sitting on one of the swings I began to move back and forth and let gravity do rest of the work.

“So what do we do now?” Wheatley asked me.

“Since we have no place to sleep we might as well go Superman and stop some crime.”

“Sounds like a plan to follow, the cities pretty big so the chance to find crime is about a good 99% chance.”

“For a country that is supposed to be the most peaceful land they sure do have a lot of crime.” I said.

“You can’t have peace if you don’t have chaos Light; this world is the same as yours only it’s still younger than Earth.”

“How old was Earth?” I asked him.

“4,467,000,000 years old” Wheatley said.

“Holy crap Wheatley, that’s amazing! My school said that Equis is less than half the age Earth is.”

No matter how many times he tells me these facts about humans it still amazes me on how they were not only advanced but also older than this planet. Finding a hiding spot for my belongings I changed my street clothes and began the night patrol. Within a half an hour I spotted a group of thugs breaking into a warehouse and started to steal large crates with the initials LL onto a cart.

“So how do we do this Light? Stealth or go and fight them head on?”

“I think stealth is the best option, we still don’t know if there might be more of them.”

“It’s going to be difficult since were wearing bright red and blue costume.”

Going around back to take a better look at what I’m up against, there were two unicorns lifting the crates and four earth ponies stacking the crates so more will be stolen with a pegasus for the lookout.

“We should take down the unicorns first Wheatley, even if I’m immune to magic doesn’t mean they can’t throw large objects at us.”

“Um, Light, I have a question.”

“What is it Wheatley?”

“Wasn’t there one with wings with them?”

That question immediately made me go full alert and did a quick turn behind my back when a large force hit me square in the chest, knocking me off my feet and sent me in the air and into the center of the warehouse with the robbers begat to start circling all around me.

“Look who I found, a little colt playing hero.” Said the Pegasus beating her wings above you, the rest of her friends began to strike you with two by four and pipes before the light turned off.

“Hey who turned off the lights?!” one of the thugs shouted.

“Does this pip squeak have back up?” Another one shouted.

The darkness was a good chance for me to escape the scene and away from the situation, crawling on the ground i slowly escaped before a body fell in front of me.

“Hey, what was that noise?!”

Soon after the group turned in to a large frenzy with unicorns lasting randomly and earth ponies swinging at nothing.

One after another they began to fall by a strange force stalking in the darkness, leaving only me on the ground still conscious. As soon as the last thug was beaten I got up from floor and looked around the surrounding area, each criminal was knocked out or tied up from the ceiling swinging back and forth upside-down.

“Wheatley, do you have a light?” I whispered.

“I think I do hold on, I have photo album, YouTube, oh wow I can play movies, wonder if I can watch The Hobbit?”

“Wheatley! light dammit!”

“I got it!” The emblem on my chest turned into a beam of light, extending my field of vision, looking left and right I found no sight of the elusive stranger.

“I think whoever got the drop on them already left.”

“Um, Light, you might want to look up.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re not the only one wearing a costume tonight, that and her costume make her better at stealth than us.”

Lifting the light above you see a slim mare wearing a full body suit of dark purple, long cape, a hat, and a letter M on her chest.

“Holy crap, she’s real.”

“Who’s real?” Wheatley asked.

“She was just a comic book hero, she can’t be real.”

“So says the costume male hero.” Said Wheatley, caped crusader leaped from the ceiling and landed nimbly to the ground.

“So….she is?” Wheatley asked.

I looked at the shrouded vigilantly a few more seconds, she reached her belt to reveal sharp boomerang letter M, and charged at me in full force to take me down.

I whispered one word, just one word to Wheatley and raised both my fists to fight.

“Mare Do Well.”

Author's Note

Well the first cross over fight my felloe readers, Light the man of might V.S Mare Do Well the mare of the night, who is going to win this fight. place your comment and reason to who is going to win.

Like always this is Brotherhoof12 saying "The Batman and Superman thing was already done and also getting old."

Man Vs. Mare

[Third person]

Light was speechless for what was before him, his mother was always a comic book nerd for Mare Do Well even when she met his dad. She even wore the same Mare Do Well costume for nightmare night for over his entire childhood. But this is no middle aged mare in front of him, instead there is a full grown mare standing in front of him and is ready to attack.

Mare Do Well jumped and did a right kick, aiming at Light's head to knock him out but missed when he ducked then did a upper cut in midair. The hit did not land when she stopped it with her left hand for a split second then dodged another hit from his other fist and landed a few feet away from him. Lightning may not know any form of martial arts, but he did not know how to hold his own from weeks of fighting terminators to know how to deal with enemies on his own. But what he did not think about Mare Do Well has the one thing they don't possess that makes a large difference called creativity.

Her hand that stopped Light's fist was in immense pain, like a hitting a train at full speed her hand did not stop shaking. Her foe did not seem strong by appearance, but his strength made her in a disadvantage if she would fight him head-to-head. If he could make a clean hit to any part of her body it would be fatal, the only option is to attack when least expected.

She reached in her belt to take out more boomerangs and threw them at Light, only instead of hitting the target it curved up above him then exploded to engulf the area with a dense smoke screen. Lightning had not counted on this surprise to block his field of vision, and what happen now since he can't hit anything if he can't see? A disadvantage for him but a opening for Mare Do Well to finish this once and for all.

Circling around him she did a right hook across his right temple and a left jab to his back, seeing the attack to slightly stagger from surprise she did a barrage of combos to damage the confused masked stranger.

Light on the other hand just felt slight pains all over his body, the hits from the robotic soldiers could break bones compared to those hits she's just giving him tiny pinches. when light had a small chance from her break from hitting him he did a duck role out of the fog and turned to face his opponent.

Her enemy has escaped from his trap making it useless for her to stay in the smoke if he's not entering. Reaching behind her belt she pointed her grappling hook to the ceiling, fired the hook, and was raised out of the smoke screen to make her next sneak attack.

"Hey, Light, why aren't you taking her out with one hit, I know you can do it like you did to the rest of the terminators why not her?" asked Wheatley.

"Because she's a living being and not a lifeless machine we always fight on a daily bases." he explained.

Just after their conversation Mare Do Well threw two more boomerangs near Superman's feet before exploding, the shock wave knocked him of his feet and the shrapnel scratching his suit and skin only made his injury more painful to keep fighting.

"We can't fight something we can't see, we need to escape." Light said lying on the floor from the explosion caused by the sneaky mare.

"She must have realized that she can't take us head on so she fighting us with stealth, also you might want to roll to the left she's about to hit you." Wheatley said.

Looking above she sees a Mare Do Well above him doing a down kick aimed at his head, rolling left he dodged out of the way to not get hit from the blow to his head. Lifting himself up Light was preparing for another hit from the mare trying to kill him.

"I need you to hold her off till I think of a way to stop her, can you do that?" asked Wheatley.

"Easier said than done, just make sure it doesn't involve killing her okay?" Lightning said.

Both Mare Do Well and superman circled each other, trying to find an opening to end the dispute, one hero being able to end it with one hit want to end it with not bloodshed, the other a Mare that can't harm him without killing; each can't do something without choosing the only option they wish not to do.

They both stopped when they are just five feet away from each other, both not moving if the other doesn't, a single sound of a falling piece of wood from the ceiling was the signal to the final act.

"Can you just fight already?" Or maybe it was sound of Wheatley shouting at him to make a move.

The first to land the first blow was Mare Do Well, she used a left jab to Superman's chest, Light dodged her hit then right kicked Mare Do Well's leg to make her fall to the floor, she saw the attack coming and jumped away from the kick, she did a down ward strike to his head and only hit floor when he did a back step away from her counter attack. Both did not seem tired, fatigued, or distressed from each other’s blows, the only thing they are interested is the masked opponent their facing.

"I got it, Light you need to grab her when she is about to hit you." explained Wheatley.

Light charged head on the Mare Do Well as did she, both raising their fists for the final attack, only with Light's attack caching something she never expected.

All the fighting soon stopped after he grabbed her chest, only instead of a muffled yip from pain, it was a loud muffled moan.

Light did not just grab her right before she could hit him; he grabbed her right breast and felt the soft firm feeling from her tight body suit causing him to blush under his mask. He immediately backed away with shame from the action he committed and apologized.

"I am so sorry! Please for-"

He did not finish that sentence when she calmly walked towards him, grabbed both his shoulders, and kicked him directly in his crotch. Hard .

No matter how strong or indestructible Light was, not even Superman cannot be in pain from a crotch attack.

When she sees him slowly falling down from the pain between his legs, she pointed her grappling hook at an open window and escaped out of the warehouse, leaving a pained and groaning human cupping his balls out of the intense pain.

"Sooooo....did we win?"

"That's what you call a win?!"

"Looks like my plan worked, you can thank me now, Light." Wheatley said smugly.

"That was you plan!" Light asked him.

"You wanted to not hurt her, so this was the safest bet, also you get to touch a boob, win-win if I say so myself."

"Let's just go back and get out of her, the noise we made must of caused some attention."

The night was soon fading with the sun slowly rising, Light had discovered new things to day, he's not the only masked her, whatever she's using can harm him, and his A.I is a huge pervert. He can only wonder what Mare Do Well is thinking about this odd situation.

“FREEZE!” Shouted an earth pony guard busting through the front door, after her came a small group other pony security circling the teen.

“You are under arrest for robbery, breaking and entering, and entering private property. Put your arms where we can see them or we will assume you wish to add assault charges to the list.” She said holding a night club at Light to show that they won’t hold back on hurting him if he denied.

“Wait,” Light said holding his hands as a sign of surrender, “You got it all wrong, I was just helping and-“

“Anything you say will be used against you in a court of law, you have a right to an attorney-“

“Please, I didn’t do anything wrong. I was just trying to help.”

“If you wanted to help, boy, the you should of called for the police.” Said of the police mares cuffing him behind Light’s back.

“We planned to drive you to the station with the other thugs we found unconscious outside, but we had a call saying that the owner would like to speak to you.” The earth pony police mare told him.

Pushing the teen outside Light saw the same thugs from before were now tied up and locked inside a caged cart and still knocked out from Mare do well’s sneak attacks.

“Wow, and we just fought her just a few minutes ago,” Wheatley said to Light,” If you didn’t have your super strength I’m sure you would be much worse than those thug mares.”

“Keep moving and be quiet” Said the earth pony mare.

“I wasn’t talking.”

“Whatever you say, weirdo, just make sure you show you remove your face mask for your mug shot later.” The mare said smugly.

“Just give me a few minutes with the owner I’m sure we’ll make an agreement.”

“Sure, kid, you do that and let me know. ‘cause I’m sure we’ll meet again soon, and when we do I’m going to save special cell just for you.”

[Somewhere else]

"That damn pervert!" An earth pony Mare do well shouted then kicked a giant hole through the wall.

"Who was that guy?" Asked another Mare Do Well, the only difference was that a pair of wings was on her back leaning on a wall across the angry hero and another same costumed hero fiddling with their equipment.

"Whoever he was Applebloom's hits did not seem to really hurt him, only our specially made Boomerangs did any significant damage." A unicorn Mare Do Well explained.

The first Mare Do Well pulled off her mask so her long red mane can let loose in the cold air, sweat was pouring down her forehead from the fight earlier today, but it did not stop the blush from every going away from her cheeks.

The second Mare Do Well also pulled down her mask to get more air into her lungs; she had a short purple mane and was also sweating a storm from midnight like Applebloom.

"Welcome back, Sweetiebell. Did the east die of the city give you any trouble?" Scootaloo asked her.

The final mare took off her face mask so her light purple and light pink mane can fall down behind her back and showed her friends the initial LL the same initials Applebloom saw when she was stopping the ponies trying to steal them.

"Each of us found these letters right?" She asked.

"Yeah, I found some at the east side, Sweetie found hers at the south, and Applebloom got hers at the north. Do you think it holds some importance?" Scootaloo asked.

"Whoever wants these craters must mean something is about to go down, and it's up to us to stop them."

"What about the guy that grabbed Bloom's boob, do you think he'll be there?" asked again Scootaloo.

"Shut up, and I doubt it, he seemed more clueless then the thieves who tried to steel the cargo."

"Either way, he is somepony we need to keep an eye on, if he can shrug off Applebloom’s attacks then we need as much weapons that can harm him if we ever see him again." said Sweetiebell.

The trio formed a circle then bumped fist with each other and shouted who they are at the same time.

"CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS MARE DO WELL TRIO!"

[Elsewhere]

After the ride Light took from the police mare, he was soon escorted inside a large tower at the center of the city with the letters of LL at the top. For about an hour of waiting in the lobby Light became anxious of how to approach who ever runs this operations. He was even more anxious for the fact that he can’t talk to the only friend he has.

“Excuse, Mr. Mask?”

“Uh, oh, y-yes?” Light said to the front desk stallion.

“You can go up to the top floor. My boss would also like to have him go alone.” He told the police mares.

“Whelp, go on up, me and my mares will wait till you’re done, but let me remind you that if you try to run you will go straight to a cell. You understand me?” She threatened.

Giving her a half nod as an agreement Light took the elevator, pressed the button to take him to the top, and waited again for the elevator to reach its destination.

“Finally, can’t believe we had to wait so long to talk!” Wheatley exclaimed.

“It’s good to finally hear you again, but right now we need to understand this place.” Light told Wheatley.

“I can tell you right now that this buildings structure and layout seems far more advanced then the other buildings we passed.”

“I know what you mean. I haven’t seen an elevator like this up close and the other time I saw one was only in books. Whoever this pony is must be very wealthy to have so many of these luxuries.”

After Light’s comment they both stopped talking when the elevator’s door opened to show a massive office full of art, beautiful furniture, and a large desk with a chair face towards the view of the large window showing the night sky.

“You must be that masked vigilante, right?” The disembodied male voice said.

“Yes, yes I am.”

“Now don’t be shy, you can come closer.”

Taking a couple of steps forward Light was now close to the desk to have a better conversation with the stallion.

“I would like to apologize on behave of my father for not coming to meet you, but due to his poor health he could not talk to you, but I’m sure I can fill his part in this conversation.” Turning his chair to face Light the young teen could not help but be frozen in place for what was in front of him.

“My name is Lex Luther,” The human said to Light then extended his hand, “And I’m sure you and me are going to get a long just fine.”

Author's Note

What happens next when Light stumbles upon the secrets of this city, will he fight Applbloom again, or will he fight of a trio of Mare Do Wells? All this will be revealed in the next chapter of Man of Equestria.

Like always this id Brotherhoof12 saying " Its been along time, but I am still writing this story!"

Dark side of humans

[Wheatley’s core]

“Ok, this is new.” Staring through Light’s costume, the AI was seeing another human being alive and well made him wonder about another important detail.

“If a human is here, then that means…” As if on que, Wheatley’s self-security kicked in and blared his field if vision in emergency red as a sign of another AI hacking his database. Shifting his consciousness to the new problem, Wheatley shifted into a smaller hollow gram image of his human lightning with small differences in blonde hair and blue eyes and entered into his mainframe.

“Oh good company, I wish I had enough time to clean this place up.” Taking his place to where the problem is happening, he saw that a strange symbol on the side of his main frame wall with its wires sinking deeper and deeper into Wheatley. That strange symbol soon dyed Wheatley’s color interior of blue to metallic silver and purple, and as the room turned to a different scene, so did the symbol becoming more and more larger then Wheatley.

“Hello, guest that’s trying to completely control me, would you mind not to do what I am guessing is trying to destroy me.” Wheatley said to the intruder.

“I am simply finding any useful information on you and your human if ever there is a situation for me and Luther to use you both.” The hacker spoke.

“Oh you can speak, so I’ll just do this then.” With a huge flash of blue from Wheatley’s eyes, the entire room soon changed back to its original color and made the hacker become smaller and smaller to Wheatley’s size.

“I will tell you this now, would you like some cake?” With a flick of blue from his fingers a chocolate strawberry cake appeared next to the small hacker. “I know the cake is a lie, but since we’re not really alive we might as well pretend to play house.”

“You seem to be an older model them me, but you are still able to counter my attack with ease. This requires more information to understand you and your human.”

“Yeah, well how about you’re human?” Wheatley asked.

“Luther will give his appropriate time to handle the new human; it is in my directive to handle the AI that is under the care of this human and to gather more information to further understand other humans.” It explained.

“So you decided to try and hack my systems to get it? I’m sorry, but you have terrible guest manners.” Wheatley said while waving his digital index finger at the intruder.

“It does not matter; I have enough information to inform Luther who you both are.”

“Hey wait a minute! I’m not going to let you just walk out of here without answers of my own.”

Before Wheatley could try and hack the rouge Ai, it quickly escaped and left Wheatley alone with no trace left of itself.

“Great, can’t get a trace to find where it is.” Looking back outside to see Luther and Light still talking, Wheatley contemplated on what to do next.

“Now, what do I do?” He asked himself. “Oh, well I’m sure this will work itself out, might as well eat some cake.”

But before Wheatley could rest, groups of corrupt data swarmed out of where the hacker made and began to eat away at Wheatley’s database.

“Hey, this is private property!” He shouted before a small blob jumped on Wheatley’s cake and ate it.

“Hey,” Shaking the blob off, Wheatley started to materialize turrets to fend of the virus that is starting to get bigger and dangerous. “I knew something is up! I need to get rid of these things before it’s too late. I hope you’re alright by the time I’m through with these things, Light.”

[Office of Luther]

“So your telling me that you tried to stop the real thieves that were trying to steal from me, but another masked hero like yourself stopped them and mistaken you for one of them?” Luther said to light over a cup of coffee that was sent up by his assistant.

“Yup, and you can’t imagine who that masked mare was. It was Mare do well, yeah THE Mare do well that stopped the robbers.” Light said while taking a sip of his latte. He was still not sure to show his face yet to Luther, so Light decided to just show his mouth to make it easier to talk and drink at the same time.

“You mean the comic book about a mare that fights crime that is supposedly a disease that must be cured? I’m pretty sure that I believe you on a mare dressing up as Mare do well, but I’m sure the crime in this city is not that serious.” Luther said.

For the past hour, Lightning told Luther all about what happened and who was responsible for the break in. It made him even happier knowing that he was not the only human on this planet full of mythical creatures.

Light even started to see that humans have more distinct characteristics to their faces then other ponies Lightning has come across. It was the first time to see another human, so Light wanted to make sure he had good comparison of what other humans look like.

Luther had a clean shaven head with no sign of growing hair; he even looked more mature and older then he looked even though Luther said he was only 18 years old, but what was even more interesting was that he was in charge of this entire building and is the son of the wealthiest stallions in the city.

“Well, I’m just glad that you were there to stop those thugs before they can get their hands on my father’s property.”

“Speaking of property, what is in those crates anyway?” Light said.

“Well, since you did save my belongings I should tell you that the contents of those crates are the company’s new medical equipment that could revolutionize modern day medicine.” Luther explained.

“Wow, it sure sounds amazing, but why were they there in the first place? I’m sure with medical equipment that valuable should be more secure.”

For a moment Luther went silent after what Light said to him, but he quickly regained his composure and told him why.

“I wanted to try and us it on my father as quickly as possible. He was in a car accident a few months ago and is in critical condition and with the new medical equipment now fully complete I wanted it to heal my father before it’s too late.” Luther said sincerely.

“I’m sure you were in the right about why you did what you did, but I want to know how the thugs found out what you were stashing and why.” Light asked him.

For a moment, Luther was left silent for a minute before he replied to Superman.

“My father, who made quite a name for himself in this city, also made a lot of enemies too. Many of whom wish for my father to stay the way he is and hopefully try and strong-arm me into signing all of his business and this building to them and leave me and my father bankrupt.”

“Is that why they tried to steal your medical equipment?”

“Yes, and I’m sure they just hired those thugs good money and lawyers in order to silence them and who their employer is.” Lex Luther told superman sadly.

Light was about to reassure him that they will pay for their crimes, when a telephone ringed at Luther’s desk, causing Lex to pick up the phone and answered.

“Hello? Yes, I’ll be right there,” Putting the phone back down, Lex turned back to superman. “That was one of my father’s employers who made the medical equipment; she said that we had a recent break in and that the thief hacked into our secret safe. And you won’t believe who is the culprit.”

“Mare do well, but why steal your personal info?” Superman asked Lex.

“My father has many enemies, but the peskiest is the masked vigilante. If this keeps up me and my father’s company will be slowly going bankrupt.”

“Not on my watch, Lex, you shown me kindness even though I hide my face behind a mask, let me help you take care of your problems while you take care of your dad. It’s the least I can do for what you did to me.” Light said to Lex.

“That would be wonderful!” Lex said with a smile. “I’m sure we can reach some kind of agreement with how we can work out this partnership, but for now, how about I give you some cash as your payment.”

“Oh, well, you don’t have to do that, Lex, after the way you treated me with such hospitality.”

“Nonsense, its bad business if both does not do their equal part. You make sure that you take care of any harmful disasters and I will supply you with payment and also give you a place to stay in the building if you ever need a personal room.” Lex told Superman.

Now, Light did not want to be a burden to Luther, but before he was about to turn down the offer he thought about his current personal situation. He is jobless, homeless, and is about to lose all his bits in a few days. What Lex is offering to him is a much better alternative than trying to job hunt the old fashioned way.

“Lex, you got yourself a bodyguard.” Sticking out his hand for a hand shake, Lex reached over and firmly shook Light’s hand to seal the deal.

“I can’t tell you how much this means to me, friend. Since we are now working together I think I should get some of my own lawyers to get those pesky cops off of you.” Reaching into his desk drawer, Light heard a loud *click* and a flight of stairs under his desk.

“I use this when the press gets to out of control for me to handle, also when I don’t want to hear my assistant tell me about what my next meeting will be.”

“Wait, what is on the other side of this tunnel?” Superman asked Lex.

“It leads to the local park just a few blocks away from here. And you don’t have to worry about the cops on the first floor; I will take care of them.” Lex assured him.

“Alright, Lex, I’ll give you a call when I am ready, and thanks again for your help.” With that said, Light left the room leaving Lex. After Light left the desk moved back to its original place and the phone ringing once more. Answering the phone again, Lex pleasant and happy expression was soon changed to a cold and emotionless demeanor.

“Did it go well?” He asked to pony on the other end of the phone.

“The cops left just a few minutes ago.” The mystery voice said to him.

“And the criminals are they taken care of?”

“Half spilled the beans about who they work for, nothing but a few extra zeros to their pay and some blackmail wouldn’t solve. The other half of the group never talked, so we just killed them, we already set up a false gang related fight gone wrong ready to be used in a couple of days.”

“Good, I want the reports on my desk now, and I would also like to have a carriage at the front of the building, I want to go give my father a visit at the hospital.” Lex told her.

“Right away, sir,” With that said the mare hanged up leaving Lex alone to his own devises, and speaking of devises.

“Did you have anything new to tell me?” he asked to no one visible in the room.

“He is human, like we predicted, but his AI is not technologically advanced like me.” The disembodied voice said.

“Well, it does not matter, yet. He already thinks he has a friend in this primitive world, but with his abnormal abilities I am sure he will take care of our little nuisance in a cape in no time at all.”

“It is still illogical for a human such as him to have such abnormalities.” The robotic voice said.

“There are all types of freaks and weirdos popping up whenever we try to execute our plans, but we will handle him when to time arrives. Just like we did with the last human we encountered.” Lex said with a dark smile growing on his face.

“His arrival on this planet is also illogical; all escape pods were to depart earth at the exact time before the planet was destroyed. Scanning his Ai showed me that his escape pod was an old prototype that was not supposed to reach space in its first launch.”

“Which means some workers from Aperture modified a prototype to save their child.” Lex said.

“This human requires to be further studied for future reference.” The voice told Luther.

“In time, but for now, we need to visit father at the hospital. After all, I’m sure the ‘special equipment’ has already arrived.”

[Hospital room 203]

The general hospital was packed with many patients and workers 24/7 with no sign of ever slowing down with the constant flow of patients coming and going. But when the arrival the one of the most important pony in the city arrived the hospital should be swarming with many reporters and bodyguards around the entire building.

That wasn’t the case when his son, Lex Luther, bought the entire building and secretly stowed his father in the top floor with no other living beings insight, making it the perfect place to put his next phase in his plan in to action. Lex slowly made his way to the bed of his disabled father with a plate of hay fries and a salad. Picking up a piece of hay fry, Lex waved it around the nose of his father and pulled back the fry and ate it himself. Before he quickly coughed out and gagged from the taste of the fry.

*Blegh* “I can never understand how frying a piece of hay can make it any better, but I’m sure the real important question on your mind is why your son is here, right?” Setting the plate aside on the bed, Lex walked away from the bed, walked away from his father, and snapped his fingers to signal a group of earth ponies to roll up a cart with a large crate.

“My scouts found this little beauty a few miles away from the city, so I told them to capture it. Many died to secure it, but that’s what you get when you send in a few ponies who don’t know a thing about what it is.” Waving the earth ponies away from the room, Lex grabbed a crowbar left from one of the workers and began to pry the crate wide open for his father to see what is inside.

Inside the crate was a frozen statue of a mare, but at the same time looked like a monster. The right side of the mare was an average looking pony with no distinct features, while the other half showed multiple faces with twisted pained faces and misplaced limbs in every direction.

For a slip second, Luther could have sworn he saw his paralyzed father almost moved his right hand as a sign of being scared of what was in front of him.

“Amazing, isn’t it? It took quite some time before we were able to trap in an abandoned storage room and have my most skilled scientists to freeze it cold ice.” Lex said then touched the normal side of the monster.

“But what I am really interested is how it works. No magic works on it and it can copy any shape to disguise itself. These skills will be perfect to control,” Reaching under his shirt he pulled out a silver chip and attached it on the frozen monster’s forehead.

“And luckily, I have just the proper tools to do that.” Stepping away from the frozen creature from a safe distance, the ice covering the monster shattered making the creature begin to slowly move its body.

With monster now free its prime directives was about to reboot itself when it soon fell back on the ground with its data quickly being re-encoded by something else. The mare that was on the ground soon turned to a complete puddle of silver for only a minute when it soon reformed into the shape of Lex’s father causing Lex the laugh with triumph.

“Magnificent! Tell me, how does a body feel for the first time, Braniac?” He asked his A.I partner.

Flexing his fingers and arms around, Brainiac looked back at Lex and spoke in his mechanical toned voice.

“All systems are in full capacity, I have checked every data left in this body and found many useful information to further help our plan.” He said to Lex.

“An even better result than I could ever imagine, but for the last thing that needs to be taken care of is…” Looking away from Brainiac, Lex set his eyes on his father’s motionless form on the hospital bed.

“I just need your appearance in order to get all of your investments and riches to myself, and now that I have Brainiac being your double I no longer need the real you.” Walking closer to his father’s side, Lex reached into his coat pocket and revealed a shiny solid ‘L’ shaped object at his father’s head.

“You may not know what this is, but you will after I do this.” As Lex was about to pull the trigger of the gun, his father put every ounce of inner strength he had and uttered only a single word.

“… Stop…”

*Bang*

With that one, loud sound echoing the entire room, Lex was now the only living being on this floor that knew what really happened to his foster father and no one else.

*Exhale* “Well, that’s taken care of, now on to more pressing matters.” Pulling his gun back in to his coat pocket and pulled out a portable phone in his hands and started to call someone.

“Hello… yes, it’s me, Luther. Look, I need you to tell the others that part of the plan is finished and that I’m starting the next phase, so I need you and the others to get ready for it to happen.” Lex said.

“Understood, but what about Mare do well? She’s still alive and she’s almost figuring out what we’re planning.” The female voice said on the other end.

“Don’t worry, Waller. I already have someone who can deal with our little problem, just make sure you can handle your side of the plan or else everything we’ve done to this point is useless!” Lex shouted.

“I’ve got it covered, Luther. Just make sure who your using won’t become an even bigger problem than that Masked mare vigilante.” Waller warned Lex then hanged up.

Putting back his phone, Lex turned back to Brainiac still standing motionless and waiting for his orders.

“Now, father, let’s go to the press to announce your miraculous recovery, and then we can work on our next project.”

Author's Note

Hello to you all still having your fun with summer and also a sorry if i forgot to update my stories, but after this one i am already starting on another one that should be published next month.

Leave a like, comment, and follow me if you want to get the recent news on any updates. And like always this is Brotherhoof12 saying "NOOOOO! SUMMER IS GOING TO END! :ajsleepy::pinkiesad2::raritycry:

Man of prey

The city at night was always peaceful, the bright lights, ponies on the side walk chatting about, and the night life hustle and bustle made the night all the more special.

"AAAAAAHHHHH!" Light waved his arms wildly before hitting solid ground from falling from a five story building. Thanks to his tough body he was able to take the fall damage with relative ease.

"MOVE!!" He A.I. companion shouted before Light did so before three throwing knives dug itself where he originally was. At first he thought he was safe, but that soon changed when they started to beep making Light immediately shoot back up on his feet and ran for cover. Hiding behind a wall just in time for them to go off, Light looked above to see if the mare with the large comical hat had any more toys to throw at him.

There she was, on top of the roof looking down towards him, he expected her to use her grapple gun to reach the ground, but his eyes widened behind the lenses from his mask as the mare jumped instead of using any contraption to slow her fall!

But as she was falling down her cape whipping in the air Light caught a glimpse of something he swore was never there from there last encounter. With a stunned silence as she gracefully fell back to the ground, Mare do well looked directly at Light making him shout out his dismay.

"Since when did you grow wings!!!???" Before her wings sprung forth and boosted her dash towards him with her fist covered with a spiked brass knuckle heading straight to his head.

[12 hours before]

"He's over there! waste him!" A masked robber said before his horn lit up and dispensed a magic bolt towards the lone figure not even flinching when a volley of magic repeatedly bombarded him.

Putting some of his strength in his legs, Light dashed to the closest criminal and grabbed the crook by their shirt and immediately flung the unicorn in the air and landed in a near by dumpster followed by the rest of the robbers.

With all the criminals in the dumpster, he casually walked near it and slammed the cover before any of them could escape, crouched under the dumpster, and with a no trouble at all lifted the heavy container and casually walked to the police that are staring at him with the utmost surprise at what they are seeing.

"Hear you go, officers." Light said with a chipper tone in his voice. Gently putting the container down, Light gave them a two finger salute and quickly jumped high in the air and started to hop on each high roof before none of the ponies could no longer see him.

Its been a couple of adjustments of being here, but with Light knowing he no longer is alone in this world he could make a sigh of relief to know that maybe staying here could be the right choice. And since he started to help the police in stopping common robberies Light started to his picture on the newspapers with his hero persona 'superman' labeled in every front page. But when he remembered the last Newspaper yesterday he could only frown when he remembered the news that Lex's father has died, apparently even with the new medical equipment Lex used on his father it still could not save him.

As of now, Lex is now the head of his Father's multi-million company, but all the money he owns still could not bring the one thing Lex is missing, and that's his family.

The day started out great, but Light can only wonder how it all turned south.

"Just a few weeks here and we already seem to have ponies following us." Wheatley Said making you snap out of your thing and looking above you to see several pegasai with cameras tailing you.

"Superman! Superman, we just want to ask you a few questions." A maroon pegasus shouted at you.

"Over here, Superman! Can we be safe to assume you are here to conquer our world?" Said another pegasus.

"What are you beneath that mask?" A lanky aqua colored asked.

"Are you here because your world was destroyed and now your stranded here to find if more of your kind survived?" The last pegusus reporter asked you.

Uh... well, she's not to far off on the question.

"Can you find a way to lose them?" Light asked his A.I. companion.

"I'm one step a head of you. You need to go ground level and take a sharp left right... NOW!" Doing what he said, Light jumped off a five story building and landed on the side walk making small spider web cracks on the ground and took a sharp left to enter the subway.

Thanks to Lex he gave Wheatley all the info on how the city goes making it easy to ditch any local news reporters. With the reporters now taken care of Light ran past many surprised ponies as they watch him run past them. Light saw that a subway train was about to close it's doors, so in a increase in speed he dashed in the train right before it closed and started to move and giving him a few moments of piece and quiet.

Taking a big sigh of relief, Light Scanned the train to see only a elderly earth pony wearing a large coat and fedora. With another thing less to worry about Light casually walked towards the stunned pony and took the seat next to him as if it was normal. Running and jumping to elude reporters is such a hassle alight should head back and check on Lex on how he's doing.

Light then turned his gaze on the still surprised earth pony and just simply nodded to him and said, "Reporters." With that reply the earth pony nodded his head began reading the newspaper again as if sitting next to an alien was a normal daily occurrence. Either way, Lightning is just happy that he was able to relax for just a moment before the subway stopped to pick up more ponies. Turning his head to see how many are entering his eyes widened when he saw even more reporters getting their cameras ready and their eyes ever vigilant to stop the masked hero.

Light assumed it was thanks to the reporters that contacted their friends on how they lost him and checked the train schedule to figure out the next stop he would be in.

"Looks like another long day." Light was about to make a break for it when hi felt a tap on his shoulder. Turning around Light Saw the elderly stallion hand him his large coat and hat to him with a friendly smile and said to him, "Don't want to stick out like a sore thumb."

Giving a quick nod, Light covered himself with the coat and hat before the automatic doors opened with a sea of multicolored ponies started to cram themselves in the train cart, but thanks to Light's strength he is able to push himself against the sea of passengers and at the same time slip past the news reports with relative ease.

Reaching the surface of the city still wearing the coat and hat the nice elderly stallion gave him Light picked a quite alleyway, removed his hero outfit, and used the large coat as a cover to hide his costume before he emerged wearing a simple white t-shirt and a tight fitting blue jeans.

"We really need to have a better way the wear normal clothing under the costume, these jeans are going to get annoying, I can already tell." Light said to his companion.

"We can try putting little hiding spots with a set of clothes, that way when we need to change we can go to the nearest one and we can change to hero to zero as quickly as possible."

"Yeah I guess your rig- wait, what did you call me when I'm not being a here?"

"Anyway, where we are standing right now I can safely tell you that the route we are walking on will take around an hour before we reach our destination." He said to Light.

"Yeah, thanks for the info." Light said to his friend, giving up on the previous comment his A.I. friend said about him.

[Lex Tower]

With Lex now in charge he completely started to change his father's building from the outer walls that were once egg shell white to jet black paint, the lights that showed the mark of Lex's company also change to dark green making the building look like it came out of some science novel. But with the changes to the building also came benefits to Light, since he can't take chances if one of the workers found him in his superhero costume, Lex had the building have secret entrances only he and Light knows making it easier for them to sneak out when ever they want.

The secret entrance was a hidden door disguised as just a plain wall of the building. Light pushed a single misplaced brick before it tuned out to be a keypad, pushed the six digit code, and with a few beeps from the keypad the door opened up and Light walked inside to meet the Lex. The room he is now in is first floor storage room full of your typical items of office supplies, but when Light strode through the room and opened the supply door he was now in the main lobby of the first floor.

Like always he spots no one in the main floor just a big lobby with black tiles with green edges with a big water fountain in the center, several large elevators on each side, and the only receptionist reading a magazine behind a very large and a very expensive looking desk.

"Good day to you." Light said without a care in the world.

"Uh-huh." The unicorn said wile using her magic to flip another page and stare lazily at what she is reading. The unicorn has a name, but light never asked and at the same time she never looked up from her magazine or even asked who he is. For some odd reason that's seems cool with both of them, If light does not cause to make any trouble or tell her boss what she does on her job then she won't care to even acknowledge him and would just read away with her hearts content.

Taking just a few more paces to the nearest elevator he pressed the top floor button and with the elevator door moving up he waited patiently while the elevator played smooth jazz. Just another thing added to this building, elevator music. With the elevator now coming to a stop Light casually walked out of the elevator and entered Lex's new office to him writing down several large parchments of paper with his secretary beside him holding an even larger stack of paper. Needless to say, when Lex heard Light's footsteps he immediately looked up, smiled, and got up from his chair to greet his friend.

"Finally a good excu- I mean, welcome back, friend." He said while shaking Light's hand.

"Sir you still need to sign more of these paper work before the next bundle arrives." His secretary said in a even tone. It really made him a bit unnerved on how she just seems to just be there without any sign of surprise or any emotion from her. From the first time they met to now, Light seemed to ever get any word from except formal greetings.

Lex shuddered by that and quickly moved Light to another section of the office, the room holds an empty desk with large shelves, books, and even a stand holding what looks to be a full set of armor in the center making it not really fit to the room just made stand out.

"I've been signing non-stop, I'm glad you arrived before she would decided to just grab my hand and sign them all herself. He chuckled at his joke before going around the empty desk, opened one of it's drawers and pulled two glasses and a very expensive looking bottle.

"Um, I don't drink." Or ever in that regard, they were never any form of liquor in the house his parents forbid it all he drank was juice, soda, water, but never any alcohol.

"Relax, this is just some soda I go and poured it all in an empty bottle looks cool though. I just do this so when the adults come for a meeting I would pull this bad boy out and drink to make me look like I can handle my liquor." He told him while pouring two glasses full of the soda and handed one to Light.

"Thanks." Light took a sip from his drink and he immediately enjoyed the cup of soda he was drinking. "It's good." He said with a smile before pushing his arm with the empty glass towards Lex for more.

Lex chuckled at the request and poured him another drink. Taking a sip for himself he raised it in front of light as a sign to do the same. "A toast, for the future of our kind."

Light moved his glass forward to Lex's own glass and was met with the two click together before they drank there soda and started talking about how their day went. Light told him about his latest heroic act about stopping a robbery and also escaping the press with the help from an very kind stallion. Lex just told him he had paperwork to do and that's it.

"Ever since my father passed away I had to deal with all of the paperwork with no help from my staff. There all trying to have their own changes, but I'm trying to make changes where it can benefit all of the workers instead of them stuffing their pockets full of more bits." Lex said with a bit of distaste at how they would do such a thing was also an irony not lost to him on how he handled his business, but that was his own little secret dark secret.

"Yeah, but we also need to figure out how to deal with the real issue... the metal men that our hunting us and if we are the inly humans on this planet." Light said in a serious tone.

This made Lex stop drinking and put his glass on the desk and gave Light a stone faced look. "Yes, this I am in charge of one of the most multinational conglomerate I do have some connections to lead to some history about some of our kind. With us working together we can be a beacon for other humans to go to and be protected from those monsters that was made by our long lost ancestors."

"I'm sure that my hero persona 'superman' and you being a rich boy of a billion dollar company should get some signs of humans getting here. It's just really to find them with so many ponies and other faces though out the city will be a difficult task even if I have super human abilities." Light said with a sigh of frustration. It seemed so much easier in their heads on how the plan should work, but when in motion It just seemed to be at a slug's pace.

"I already made ides to have surveillance around the city, my company specializes in technological inventions that put other companies to shame. I will try to set them in a couple of months, but till then just do what you do best and be a hero." Lex told him while reaching for his drink and downing the entire cup in one gulp.

"Well with your hero persona 'Superman' doing good, you also have some completion in the form of a mare that you know very well." Lex snapped his free hand and waited just one second before his secretary strolled in with no large stacks of forms and document, but a single newspaper. "It seems that during nights when you are never around she stops some criminals that should be locked up for a long time, but some how get released the next day. She has made quite the waves before your grand entrance and already has a fan base revolved around her."

Light looked at the picture showing a tied group of criminals being hauled to jail, but the real noticeable piece of evidence she was the one who caught them was the single thrown weapon she used on him the first time they met.

"Well I am glad she is on our side, but why is that a problem to us?" Light asked Lex.

"The problem is not her, but who she is dealing with. For past two weeks I tried to have some shipments from across the country, but they all get ransacked by the same criminals that she has been dealing with. If you can, I need you to do a stake out on one of my warehouses that are going to hold new equipment that is being shipped tonight." Lex explained.

"So you want me to help her?" Light asked.

"I need you to just have a low profile and let her handle to small fries. If you can gather whatever info she is getting from them I would like to hear them when you come back."

"Ok, that is all good and all, but did you forget the one thing that might make the plan fall into pieces?" It was Light's A.I. who spoke to Lex it's single glowing blue eye staring straight at him. "We fought her before and she kicked his ass."

"Thanks for reminding me." Light said with sarcasm.

"Your very welcome. You might want us to lay low, but that still does not hold any possibility that she might notice someone is watching her." Wheatley explained the holes of Lex's idea.

"It's just a simple stake out, just make sure you just watch the warehouse and see what she does." Reaching for the bottle Lex poured him a glass and drank the entire thing before looking at Light with a smile that showed he is confident on his plan.

"To not sound like I'm about to jinx you... what is the worst thing that could happen."

[present time]

"He totally jinxed us!!!" Wheatley shouted while Light dodged another volley of small projectile explosives.

It was supposed to be a stake out. While Light dressed in his costume and was on top of a nearby rooftop looking over the warehouse that is holding Lex's shipments to spot Mare do well he was instead seeing a large group of criminals taking the shipment while at the same time holding the security guard hostage. Light was about to take action when the entire warehouse became shrouded my darkness from the lack of light being cut off making it harder to see what was happening.

And in just as soon as Light jumped of where he was standing to investigate the issue the warehouse light turned back on to the all of the criminals unconscious and tied up and the hostage free and was running away to call for back up.

Light was about to take a further look at the crook before Light heard small objects bouncing on the floor before a huge bang erupted followed by a bright light.

As soon as the light had faded and the sense of hearing was restore Light was soon welcomed by a dark leather boot slammed to his face that caused him to lay flat on his butt. After that confrontation it soon became a cat and mouse game with the masked mare that now was sporting wings flying over him throwing explosives at him while he runs and dodges her attacks.

"Ok, I may have just been activated months ago and still have a lot to learn about this world, but I am sure she can't just grow wings that fast." His A.I. told him.

"Your right," Light stopped running, turned his gaze towards the flying Pegasus, and used him human strength in his legs to jump straight to the surprised mare. Before she could react Light grabbed her cape and the two descended to the ground in a heap of limbs.

The first to untangle themselves was the masked mare that was about to take flight again to gain some distance was soon stopped when Light wrapped his arms tightly around her. Given his strength it was impossible for her to escape but she still tried to struggle in vain.

"I'm not your enemy," Light said while grunting from wall the flailing she was doing. "I'm a hero, like you, so please stop fighting."

"Your no hero if your working with him!" As soon as Light heard her voice she took the opportunity of surprise and tossed another explosive in the air that detonated above them making the hold around her loose. Mare do well then released a flurry of kicks and punches at the stunned human before she landed a round house kick to his face only for her foot to be grabbed by his hand.

"The last time we fought," Light spat out some dirt from the explosive and looked straight to her lensed eyes. "Your punches were a much stronger." With a flick of his wrist he sent her flying in the air. To stop her motion she extended her wing to bring her to a halt and then proceeded to speak her piece to him.

She was about to fly higher when a fist was mere centimeters too close for her face to even dodge, but to dodge she did with the agility that Light did not know she possessed. He also did not know that when she moved away from the fist she planted a sticky bomb on his arm and in a second soon detonated.

"GRAAAAH!" Light fell hard on the ground from how strong the explosion was about to get back up but was soon smacked down when a set of hoofed feet planted them directly on to his face causing the small crater he made even more bigger.

"Who are you?" Even her voice sounded different then last time they fought.

Light quickly lunged both his hand to grab her by surprise her agility evaded the idea of catching her and was immediately treated with more small bombes exploded all around him. Swatting away the smoke to clear his vision Light looked up to see her circling around her like a predator waiting for its prey to show a hint of weakness for it swoop down a deliver the final blow.

"This is going no where!" He shouted angrily to no one but himself.

"Calm down, now I know this may look bad, but we accomplish to talk to her." Wheatley said in a positive tone to uplift his spirits but instead was immediately shot down when even more bombs were being thrown down on them.

"I can't do [SHIT] if she keeps flying." Light said in his earth language.

"Come on, we can't have her keep doing this she must have a limit." Wheatley said to Light.

As if the universe is making fun of him Mare do well unleashed twice the amount of explosives she used before and as soon as they touched the ground they immediately coated the area in fire and smoke with Light caught in the cross fire.

The fire was not he problem, the impact of the explosion was not the problem, but the thick smoke filling in Lights lungs were a problem. Just because he is invulnerable to high amount of physical pain, it did not mean intangible things such as smoke had the same effects.

Light's eyes quickly filled with tears and his throat cried for clean air, but due to the smoke being so thick Light felt disoriented to even comprehend on how to counter this but to jump high enough to get away from the smoke. As soon as he jumped high in the air to get his lungs the air they need his eyes opened just at the right moment to see Mare do well with her right fist covered in what appears to be brass knuckles. The fist connected to Light's jaw making his brain rattle in his skull.

With even more pain to struggle with Light could not counteract Mare do well's onslaught of fists and kicks made it even more annoying. Just when the last punch was delivered Light was about to stop her by grabbing her in a bear hug she slapped her left hand to Lights forehead and soon used her wings flew even higher.

Light was about to grab her legs when he heard rapid beating noises that soon caught his attention. What light didn't realize was that what she slapped on his hand was a sticky bomb that soon detonated in his face causing him to hit the ground again. When his body hit the ground his lungs were once again assaulted by smoke and fire making him claw at his throat for air. Mind in shambles, lungs filled with smoke Light could not even hear his friend's shouting to help him get out of this situation. As his vision became dimmer and dimmer Light could lay flat on his back as his last breath slowly left his body and was invaded my smoke he could only look at the flying mare in the sky.

For some reason Light lifted his right arm in the air as if trying to reach her, but as soon as his eyes closed they immediately opened to see all white. He could finally take a breath of clan air and when he started to take what was around him into consideration his eyes soon locked with another set of eyes the same color as his. Who was in front of him was human, but instead of it being the same person as before was replaced with a woman. She had long black hair, well rounded cheeks, and her skin was fair making the expression she was making look peaceful. A wave of calmness washed over him from her stare, but soon his eyes widened at what she was holding.

In her hand was a toy, but that was the same toy that he was with him on hi ship and the color scheme was the same as his costume. She made the toy fly in front of him as if to show him what the toy can do. Light only raised his arm to reach out towards the toy, his eyes closing once more, but when he opened his eyes once again he no longer saw fire and smoke, but the endless sight of the starry sky.

As soon has he no longer was engulfed in smoke Light took a moment to cough out what little smoke was left in his systems he soon saw Mare do well fly head first with her brass fist cocked back to deliver a mighty blow. That fist was soon caught with ease with just his left arm, like a iron bear trap his hand clamped onto her arm and did not let go while her other arm tried to deliver more punches to him.

They were all blocked by his free hand and that arm was also grabbed and held tightly in his grasp. With her now trapped Light spoke with a more serious tone of voice to get his point across that he's no longer playing around.

"Stop, like I said before, I'm a hero like you." He said to her.

Once more she struggled in his grip, but it just made him tighten his hold on her even more.

"Why are you doing this? What is the point doing any of this?" He asked her.

"You have no idea who your friend is or what he's doing behind your back." She said with an even tone. "He will do whatever it means to get what he wants, especially if it involves his own kind."

That revelation caused his feet to stop moving and thoughts come to a halt.

"Lex? Wait, what do you-" Before he could ask her several beams of light aimed at them followed by several heavily armed security ponies surrounding them with their weapons drawn and pointed at them.

"Freeze! put your hand in the air, you two are coming with us." One of the guards shouted.

Light as about to fly higher in to the air and escape, but it was Mare do well who was the fastest. She tucked her legs in and immediately kicked Light's face causing him to loose his grasp. As soon as she was free she released all of her explosives to the guards and upon impact incased them in a flash of light and smoke. Light was smart enough to cover his eyes before they exploded or else he would be like the ponies that are coughing and wheezing for air. Just as Light was about to escape the scene he spotted the masked mare staring at him higher in the sky.

"Be carful on who you trust, especially your own kind." With her final piece said she flew away into the night without a trace leaving him to his own thoughts.

"What the heck does she mean?"

"Less talking more running, the smoke is disappearing." Wheatley told him.

Think aside Light jumped away from the guards and continued to hop on roof top to roof top till the warehouse behind him no longer can be seen.

With the guards no longer on his tail Light stopped jumping and rested his hands on his knees to catch a breath it was his A.I. companion that broke the silence.

"Ssooo.... you can fly now." Wheatley said casually.

"Yeah." Light replied.

"Did you plan on telling me this before or after the fight." He asked.

"Do you honestly believe I hide the fact that I can fly? Even I didn't know I could do that."

"Then we can calk that up with how this planet is effecting you?" Wheatley said.

"Pretty much." Light replied again. After his reply more silence filled the conversation, but was soon shattered when Wheatley asked him another question.

"Do you believe her?"

Light was silent for a moment until he spoke with a hint of betrayal in his voice. "Lex is out friend right?" His A.I. was silent after hearing the question making Light even more uncomfortable about what he learned. He was about to speak again before Wheatley cut him off.

"Lets find out." He told him without any hesitation. "After all, he is a friend."

"Yeah," Light said before he started his jumping to the next building, it would be easier for ponies to see him out in the open with him flying in the sky without the help of wings, so building hopping was his only option for travel. Light can think later on how he can fly, even more so on who that woman was. The only problem he wants to face in the large tower coated in green light like a beacon calling him to it. Just seeing the tower made him all the more uncertain on what might happen when he sees Lex and tell him what he learned. "Let's go talk to our friend.

Author's Note

And there you have it. Light can fly and Scootaloo was Mare do well this time. I felt this chapter needed more words to describe the fight between them, so I decided to add this to make it better. I want to tell you all that I wont post another chapter until February since I will be going some where to visit family.

Like always this is brotherhoof12 saying, "Sorry for the delay and have a happy new years!"
