Chapter 4: The Robot's New Master

Previous Chapter

Canterlot has been fully repaired ever since Darth Vader invaded. A landing pad was made for Charming Thunder to land his shuttle in. The cart carrying the droid was being carried by Shining Armor. The royal guards at the doorway to the hallway of the castle saluting to the presence of the Captain of the Royal Guard. Charming Thunder then went to his room and levitated the robot out of the cart to make it stand up straight and research was about to begin. He levitated a quill and his journal and started to analyze the robot.


It has been a few hours since Charming Thunder was trying to figure out how to turn on the robot. He has been going over his notes about the size, weight, and details about the robot over and over again to find an on switch. He then heard a knock on the door. It was Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo who was at the door. "Oh. Hey, girls," Charming Thunder said. "Whats up?"

"We were wondering if we could help," Scootaloo said.

"Sure. Come in. I've been trying to figure out how to turn it on but I have no idea what to do." The Cutie Mark Crusaders then thought of an idea that it might work.

"Why not give the robot a tiny shock with your thunder magic," Sweetie Belle said. "Maybe that should wake it up."

"Sweetie Belle, you...are... A GENIUS. Why didn't I think of that before. Lets try. Stand back if anything goes wrong when it is activated." The three fillies then took a few steps back while Charming Thunder approached the robot and used his magic on it. Sparks went flying everywhere and the robots eyes then glowed yellow. It then looked around the room it is in and looked at the red unicorn.

"Declaration: Self-diagnostics complete. Assassination protocols active. All systems go," it said. "Salutation: Greetings, master. I am HK-51. I am armed, operational, and ready for your command."

"Are you talking about me?"

"Confirmation: Of course, master. You were the one who activated me. Querey: Where am I exactly, master?"

"You are at Canterlot castle," Applebloom said. "My name is Applebloom. These are my friends Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. And his name is Charming Thunder. Welcome to Equestria, my friend."

"Tell me your capabilities, HK-51," Charming Thunder requested so that he can learn more about it.

"Encouragment: I can provide security anywhere you go, master. I can anticipate liquidating any undesirable you wish either you want me to torture or kill while I am in your service. Oath: While I am here I will maintain constant vigilance. I will also inform you of any traitors."

"Well since I turned you on, how about I introduce you to the rest of my friends?"

"Statement: Of course, master." HK-51, Charming Thunder, and the crusaders left the room to go meet the others who are at the throne room.


"So let me get this straight," Luna said. "you turned it on by using your magic on it?" The princesses and the mane 6 and Charming Thunder were discussing what happened earlier from now and HK-51's capabilities.

"Wow," Twilight said amazed of his best friend.

"May we see it?" Fluttershy asked. "If its all right with you."

"Sure," Charming Thunder said. He then turned to the door and shouted. "HK-51, you can come in now." HK-51 entered the room and walked straight towards him as he then took a bow to the presence of the princesses.

"Statement: It is an honor to meet you," HK-51 said. "My master has been talking about you while we were heading to this room."

"Amazing," Twilight said as she examined HK-51. "What does he do?"

"He is a professional assassin droid."

"Analysis: I went over the history of this world. I must say that Cadence and her husband Shining Armor have done well defeating these...Changelings. But banish them to the edge of the forest? I could've done better."

"It was the only option I had," Cadence said. "And...how do you know about the changeling attack."

"Commentary: My master showed me the library so I scanned every history book that was on every shelf and now I can get use to this world." Everyone in the room was amazed of what the robot can do.

"I'm sure that you can be useful if the world is in danger," Shining Armor said. "Why don't all seven of you show our new companion around Ponyville?"

"I was thinking the same thing," Twilight said. "Besides. Charming Thunder did promise me to help me an Spike clean the library."

"Commentary: Master, if I may. Once we reach Ponyvile, could you tell me where yo live and I'll head there to recharge."

"Guess the tour would have to wait then."
