Chapter 2

   Somepony was  murmuring to himself somepony else was try to knock himself out ( it's so pathetic how ponies act when they are scared.)

   " Dawn, come here I need your help, get me out of here! " RiverBoat asked in a scarred tone

   " you **** ******* ********** **** how stupid are you, you tell everypony they are going to die then you ask for help? The hell I'm helping you." Dawn yelled he then galloped to who he remembered as the chief engineer and tried to get his attention, but he was to distracted crying, murmuring about his wife. Dawn slapped him.

   "What the hell was that for!" He screamed

   " To get your attention what's wrong with Cherry Tree." Dawn asked

   " I think it has something to do with the main hard drive..." The teary eyed pony said well pointing at a small USB sticking half way out of a slot.

  Dawn quickly grabbed a large wrench he found and slammed the USB. All of a sudden the ship stoped and went dark the only light was from the sun.

   // Captains log, Dawn saved our lives the meteoroids past by the ship nearly hitting us but didn't now we face a new problem starvation,the cold,and mutiny. I write this on reserve energy Solis sudgested we go to the planet. She is now being promoted we go to the planet next time the sun comes out from behind the planet that is is about 7 hours we build up supplies until then we have confirmed that we can leave the ship in orbit and in 26 hours of our departure from the ship it will come back by then we would have froze but the Diamond a repair ship is in route to help, the crew will board and then a hour later we will return from the planet what could go wrong, shit that's bad luck//

   // message to ship Diamond we need help we will depart to the planet AU.31 for fear we will freeze here the AI Cherry Tree has malfunctioned and kept us on a collision course with a asteroid belt, but luckily we solved the proble I write quikly because our reserve energy runs low any ways I need your crew to report to the Lunar Glider and do minor repairs nothing works that now that the hard drive is fucked up sorry about the swearing I'm really upset everypony is ( more ) upset at me. But please send a repair crew.  //

// message to RiverBoat only, we will only help you because other ponys need help. //

Chapter 1

   // Captains log, my pony assigned with mapping the planet made a mistake and set our landing party departure back a week he will not face punishment but another mistake like that could get him in a hell lot of trouble pardon my manners. //

   Dawn never thought he would be in such a terrible ship but he didn't relate too much to the Sparkles family so he understood after all his last name wasn't Sparkles, it was Light, he still thought he shouldn't be in such a bad ship first of all there was rust on it second of all why was there duct tape in the creases of the ship, GULP.

   " Will Dawn Light please report to the bridge." The mono toned AI Cherry Tree said, they named the AI in the ship Cherry Tree instead of some thing involving The Lunar Glider, but meh doesn't really matter. Dawn walked up to the bridge on the steep stairs that had to sadly be a color some where in-between vomit green and poop brown. That might give you a idea.

   "Dawn, nice to see you how was cryogenic sleep" the captain RiverBoat asked

   " Crappy " Dawn replied with a frown.

   " Come on Dawn you were barely related to the Sparkles family what did you expect. " The depressed looking captain said " I mean look at this grand grayish... Blue planet you could have a high place in its government the more you help the better the out come."

   " I'm good I only came to go into space once this exploration is done, I'm leaving OK, good now if you don't mind I'm going to go vomit some of that cryosleep off."

   After some unpleasant minutes in the bathroom Dawn exited the small grey room he went to his quarters and hopped on his bed and started to close his eyes.

   " All personnel not in action report to the bridge. " Cherry Tree asked

   Dawn knew some thing was wrong when every one came running " Shit I think it's a Changling pirate ship." Sgt. Weather said worriedly " What if it's a UFO" said somepony Dawn didn't know. When he got to the bridge everypony was piled around Captain RiverBoat " We have a emergency there is a asteroid belt 20 times the size of Ponyvill hurling at us, in 10 minutes we will be a couple pieces of scrap metal. "

   Dawn didn't understand why they couldn't just avoid it just at that time somepony asked " Why can't we just stop or avoid it."

   "I was getting to that Cherry Tree... kind of malfunctioned."

//Captains log were going to die//

Chapter 3

   // captains log, I pissed off everypony //

   " we have two evac ships in dock filled with food and other supplies" said first mate Becker to captain River Boat " What about space suits" asked River Boat "Everypony is getting in them right now." Answered Becker

   Dawn was in shuttle 2 it had a orange line across the top with the same kind of controls on the dash like the Ship it sits in. He could already feel it getting cold. Luckily somepony found a bunch of old battery's, unscrewed some lights, and cut some wires and wa-la makeshift flashlights, those lights that don't work won't stand a chance! Everypony was rushing to their assigned ship which there were only 2 so they were kind off crowded but he got on.

   A hour on the ride the engineer who was crying about his wife earlier, who was also driving the shuttle motioned for Dawn to come to the radio Dawn put on the headphones and got up to the mic " Hello? " he asked " Dawn listen to me somepony's are getting upset looking I think they might..." Was all captain River Boat could say befor Dawn herd this Three gun shot, a female scream, moaning from somepony, one gun shot, and the words "any pony else want to help him!" Then he herd captain River Boat say this from the head set dropped on the ground " you know Metal Mash when a gun is pointed at your head and half the ponys on the ship want to kill you, plus you are totally unarmed you have to think fast but when you can't do that's, your best option is going to hell, Dawn your in charge now..." A giant explosion followed by a big red light outside the window made every one start screaming " what did that bastard do?" Asked Lilly pad " He saved us from that bastard." Dawn said with a tear in his eye.

   // New? captains log, holy shit this must be a dream. But if it isn't I am going to have a serious talk with my lawyer. //
