//-------------------------------------------------------// Project J -by last of delta1- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Subject 3 //-------------------------------------------------------// Subject 3 "Sir, he's failed." "I should have seen this coming. How much longer do we have left?" "78 hours sir. Shall we begin code 45?" "Yes, awake subject 3. Now" [SUBJECT 3] I awoke from my cryo chamber, and pulled out the wires in my body. I pushed opened the cryo chambers door and was welcomed by captain Taylor, and several scientist, and saluted. "Sir, may I ask why I have been awoken?" I asked. "Subject 3, subject J, or Jasper has finally broken. The ponies have captured him, and we're running out of time. I have awoken you because you are our best soldier, and the only one able to complete this mission." he said. "Aww, I'm touched sir." I said and bowed. "So, what's my mission?" I asked, and walked to my gear. "Simple, find Jasper, plant this chip into is head, and free him." he said holding up a small glowing chip."You must complete this mission without any of the ponies knowing that your there. Also, we have found Jaspers gauntlet, and armor. I want to retrieve them and bring them back to Jasper once you placed the chip into his head." "Sounds easy enough, but one question. What's the chip do?" I asked putting on my armor. "This chip injects small drones that will brain wash it's host, and have them under our control. Once they have entered Jaspers mind, he will continue project Omega." "Sounds easy enough." I said twisting on my helmet. "Lets get started." My armor locked up, and my hud flickered on showing my life signatures, and weapon display. *Welcome back Subject 3, I'm glade to see you again.* "Hello V, and you don't need to talk like that ya know?" *Yeah, I know, but it bugs you* "Glade to see you didn't change." I said, and grabbed my XM8 Sniper, and my Beretta 92. I checked my ammo, and turned back to the captain. "Alright, lead the way sir." he nodded, and we made our way to the planning room. We surrounded a large table that had a hologram of Canterlot. "Alright, here's how this is going to go down, you are going to take a stealth fighter down to Equestria and land near Canterlot. Once you have landed, you are to sneak in and move straight to the palace, and retrieve Jaspers things. Once you have done that you are to find Jasper, plant the chip, free him, and get back to the stealth fighter. Sound good?" I scanned the hologram, and looked over to the captain. "Of course sir." I said nodding my head, and had V upload the hologram into my database. "And if anyone see's you?" "Have some fun." I said making a dark grin under my helmet. He nodded, and dismissed me. I exited the planning room, and made my way to the hangers. Once I made it to the hangers, a soldier came up to me and saluted. "Sir, your fighter is loaded, and ready to go." he said, and led the way to my fighter. I thanked him, and jumped into the fighter. "V, do a system check." I said. *Life support, check. Weapons, check. Engines, check. All systems are all ready to go. Lets fly.* I activated the fighter, and shot out of the hangers. Once I was out of the hangers, I activated the fighters stealth mood, and made my way to Equestria. *Subject 3, be advise that once you enter Equestria you will lose contact with command.* "Good, at least I don't have to hear a bunch of assholes barking orders at me." *You know that they can hear you right?* "Yep." Soon I reached the planets atmosphere, and scanned for the best place to land. V found a place, and put a waypoint onto my hud. I flew to the waypoint, and landed in a small open space. I opened the cockpit, jumped out, and turned on my thermal vision. I scanned my surroundings. I switched back my normal vision, and sighed. "Ok V, where to?" I asked. Soon a waypoint appeared on my hud., and I jogged towards the waypoint. "Hey V, how could Jasper lose to a bunch of ponies?" *Oh, that's right, you didn't hear.* "Hear what?" *The ponies brought Jaspers closes friend to Equestria to try and talk to Jasper, but since Jasper was to far gone, he killed his friend. We don't know if he did it on purpose, or if it was a mistake, but we do know that it was able make him finally snap.* "Damn, don't that suck." I said shaking my head, and continued to the castle. It took me 3 hours of non stop running to make it halfway to my objective. I wanted to stop to check something, but couldn't because there were multiple dots on my motion tracker. They were moving as fast a I was, and were way bigger than me. As the time past they got closer, and closer. "V, can you identify what's following me?" I asked. She was quiet for a moment, and finally said something. *It seems to be a pack manticores.* "Manticores?" *Yep, and I think they're hungry.* "Fuck that, I'm not a fucking happy meal." said, and spun around activating my thermal vision. Sure enough, 5 Manticores slowly approached me. I smiled, and aimed my XM8 Sniper for the biggest one, and fired. As soon as I fired, the biggest one let out a roar of pain, and I fired again making it fall dead to the ground. When the big guy went down, his buddies came rushing out at me roaring. I was about to fire again, but another dot on my motion tracker appeared behind me. I spun around to see another manticore launching at me. I jumped out of the way, but as I did that another Manticore from behind hit me, and sent me flying through a tree, and dropped my XM8 Sniper. I quickly recovered, and pulled both my Beretta 92, and my steel combat knife, and charged at my prey. Once I was close enough, I jumped firing my Beretta, and plunged my knife into a manticores eye. It roared in pain, and tried to shake me off, but I was to thirsty for his blood, and twisted my blade deeper into his skull. *3! Behind you!* I looked back, and saw another manticore preparing to slash at me. I smiled, and jumped off as he was attempting to hit me. He hit his friend in the face, and knocking him to the ground. I bolted behind the confused manticor, pulled out a frag, pulled out the pin, and shoved it up his ass! Yeah, his ass. He let out roar before the grenade exploded, and was blown to bits. "Damn, what a way to go." I chuckled, and turned to the last 3 manticores. I cracked my neck, and knuckles, and charged. One of them was smart enough to run the other way, but the others were just so dumb, and charged. I fired my Beretta, jumped up into the air, and brought down my fist onto the right ones skull, and heard the satisfying sound of bones cracking. I flipped off of the manticore, and was tackled by his friend. The prick tried to take a bite out of my face, but I put my boots onto his chest, and launched him off. I jumped back to my feet, and sprinted towards the confused manticore. I jumped up onto the manticore, and brought down my blade into his chest, and gutted the bastard. He roared in pain, and attempted to knock me off, but was to weak. I pulled out my knife, put both of my hands into his wound, and split it open showing all of his organs. I reached down, pulled out his heart, and crushed it. My prey ceased moving, and I jumped off. I walked to my XM8 sniper, and picked it up. As I was picking up my weapon, I heard a moan of pain, and looked over to a manticore trying to drag it's self away. I smiled, walked over to the poor manticore, and put my boot on his head. I gave a dark chuckled, and looked into his eyes that were felled with nothing but fear. I put the barrel of my XM8 onto his skull, and pulled the trigger. "Bad kitty." I said, turned around, and walked towards the waypoint. *Bad kitty? Really?* "Oh come on, someone had to say it." I smiled, and continued to run to my objective. 'Oh this mission will be fun.' //-------------------------------------------------------// Cats out of the bag //-------------------------------------------------------// Cats out of the bag After my encounter with the manticores, I continued to run through the woods for another 3 hours. "Holy *Pant* SHIT! *Pant* I'm actually *Pant* getting tired." I wheezed, and slowed down. "V, did we not bring any E-sticks?" *What? Oh, yeah we did.* "WHAT!? Why didn't you inject them when I was losing energy!?" *Because I like to see you struggle.* "..... Just juice me up damn it." *Fine, hold on.* I stood in place for few seconds and finally heard a buzzing noise, and felt several needles penetrating every part of my body. Soon I felt the fluids enter my body, and the needles exiting my body. I felt like running a million marathons. "WOOOO! Now that's what I'm talking about." I said, and sprinted towards the waypoint. "3, know that we only have 3 more E-sticks. So try and take it easy.* "Yeah, yeah I'll take it easy. What's my energy level?" *100%.* "Good, lets get moving." I said and bolted to my waypoint. I ran for an hour, and came across a village. "V, what village is this?" *Ponyville, and it looks like they're having a celebration. Looks fun.* "Looks dumb, how long will it take to get to my objective if I go around it?" *About 3 days.* "To long, what are my chances of sneaking through the village?" *1%.* "Shit, any ideas?" *Well While you were asleep the scientist put in a new feature into your armor.* "And what would be that feature?" *Well before they woke you up, command kidnapped a few changelings, and experimented on them trying to find a way to use they're powers. After many failed experiments, they finally made a break through and installed the Changeling Camo into your armor.* "So I can take the form of any living creature?" *Yep.* "Well, that should make things a lot more easier. How does it work?" *You find any kind of living creature, and steal they're DNA.* "How do I do that?" *there's a pony near by, go and test it out.* I turned on my thermal vision and found my prey. I slowly crept through the bushes, and spotted a male pony with a small present. I quickly pulled him into the bushes. I covered his mouth and held on to as he tried to get free. "Damn it V now what?" *Let me go to work.* Before I could ask what she was talking about, Large metallic tentacles shot out from my back, and impaled my victims eyes. Soon I saw the ponies blood flow through the tentacles, and heard V giggling. "V, are you laughing?" I asked smiling. *A little, this is really fun.* I rolled my eyes and watched as my victim stopped squirming, and fell limp. The metal tentacles went back into my armor, and I saw  'DNA collected' on my hud. "That easy huh?" "Yep, now hold still for a few seconds.* I did as I was told, and waited for something to happen, but then I saw 'Changeling camo in progress' appear on my hud. Soon I could feel my legs start to shake, and fell to my knees. Before I could ask V what was happing to me, I looked down and saw... HOOFS!? "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" *3 shut up!* "Well sorry, I'm not use to seeing my hands turn into FUCKING HOOFS!" I yelled. Soon I saw 'Changeling camo activated' on my hud, and felt really weird. *Alright, it's done you cry baby.* "Fuck you." I mumbled, and tried to pick myself up, but failed and fell to the ground. "God damn it!" I yelled in frustration. *Aww, you look so cute.* "V, shut up." I growled. I tried again, and again, and again until I finally made it to my feet, or hoofs. I then walked out of the bushes, and walked down the road to ponyville. "All I have to do is get to the train station, and complete my mission." I mumbled to myself. As I was walking I passed a small lake, and decided to go and have a look of myself. I approached the lake and saw a grey pony with a black, and silver mane, and red eyes. "Hm, interesting." I said and left the lake, and continued  to ponyville. Once I entered ponyville, the party was still going on and I could see both of the princesses walking with a small purple alicorn. I decided to stay away, and continued to make my way to the train station. "Hi!" "GAH!!" I yelled, and fell onto my back. I gridded my teeth and looked up to see a pink pony with a huge smile. "Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie, and I never seen you around here before. Are you new in town?" she asked hopping around me. I got up and walked past the weird pony, but was stopped when she popped out of thin air. "Oh come on don't be a mister grumpy pants, it's a PARTY!" she yelled and jumped into the air. I rolled my eyes, and ignored her. "Oh come on, all ya need is some cake!" she said, and put a huge cake in my face. I pushed her aside, but she tripped and the cake fell onto my head. "Oops, sorry." I was about to lose it, but soon I saw 'Changeling camo malfunction'. Soon my body was covered in sparks, and I fell down *Shit! 3, you have to move! NOW!* I tried to run, but my body was locked in place. I could feel my body changing. Soon the sparks ceased, and I could move. I slowly raised to my feet, and opened my eyes to see all of the ponies staring at me with eyes of shock. Soon multiple guards surrounded me, and both of the princesses walked past the crowed. I cleared my throat, and began to talk. "Um, hey there. Do you know where the train station is? Over there, great, thanks." I said and began to walk to the train station, but was stopped as a guard pointed his spear in my face. I sighed, and looked back to the princesses. "Look, I'm in a hurry, so can we just hurry this along please." I said. *3, your cover is blown, you have to get out of here!* "Calm down V, they're just ponies. How tough can they be?" I whispered. Soon Celestia stepped forward, and said something. "Who are you, and why are you here?" she asked. I chuckled, and pulled out a flash grenade. "Well, V, cat's out of the bag. Any ideas?" *Well, commands most likely watching us right now. So they wont send any help since our covers blown. So We're on our own here.* "Good, I was going to quit anyways. It gets really boring when your in that cryo chamber." I said. I looked up into the sky, and flipped off whoever was watching me. I looked back down to see a confused Celestia. "Human, you have not answered my question. Who are you, and why are yo-" "SHHHHH! Now look, I could stand here and tell you my story, and a lot of stupid shit, but I got a king to meet." Before she could ask me what I was talking about, I threw the flash bang into the air, and bolted through the guards. The flash bang exploded, and all of the ponies were screaming, and running away. Once I got past the crowd, I sprinted to the train station as fast as I Could. *3, you have multiple guards on your tail!* I looked at my motion tracker, and saw 40 red dots closing in. "How many fucking guards do they have in this small town!?" I yelled. Soon I could see the train station. "V, give me a little boost!" *You do know that if you waste all of your energy, you cou-* "I DONT CAARE! Just do it!" I yelled. V sighed, and 'Speed increase' appeared on my hud. Soon I felt several needles penetrate my legs, and then I was flying like a bullet through the town, and towards the train station. Before I could reach the station, Celestia and a large group of guards blocked my path. "HALT!" Celestia boomed. I paid no attention to her, pulled out my sniper, and fired a couple of shots into 5 guards. Blood sprayed out of they're wounds as they screamed in pain, and fell dead. Once I was close enough, I used a huge amount of my energy to jump over Celestia, and landed behind her, and bolted for a near by ally. V then reactivated my suits changeling camo, and I exited the ally, and blended in with a crowd of ponies. I soon made my way to the train station, and sneaked onto the train as it was leaving. I sat down in a seat, and gave a sigh of relief. "That wasn't to bad." I said and chuckled. *3, we were just discovered, and commands most likely going to abandon us here since we were discovered. HOW IS THAT NOT BAD!? THIS IS TERRIBLE!* "Jesus V calm down. It could have been worse." *Grrrr... fine, I guess it could be worse.* I sat in my seat, and watched as the train left Ponyville, and began it's journey to Canterlot. As the time went by I slowly drifted off to sleep, and gave a wicked smile as I was dreaming about my past. [Celestias POV] "Find him, he must not escape!" I shouted. It's been at least a full hour since I lost the metal human, and I was not in the best of moods. I gave a heavy sigh. "Celestia!" I looked behind me, and saw Twilight and her friends rushing towards me. "Celestia, what happened? Pinkie Pie told me that there was another human. Is it true?" Twilight asked worried. I sighed, and nodded. "I'm afraid it's true, and I believe he's here for Jasper." "Jasper, but how do ya know?" Applejack asked. "Well, when I encountered the human, he said something about meeting a king. I fear he means Jasper." All of the girls looked shocked from the news. Until Rainbow Dash said something. "Well where is this punk?" "I lost him when he killed 5 of my guards with a strange devise." I said. Before I could say anything else, a guard trotted to my side with a large frown. "Your highness, I'm afraid that the human is... no where to be found. We have searched everywhere, but found nothing." the guard said. I gave another heavy sigh, and dismissed the guard. "Sister." I looked back to see Luna. "We may want to leave for Canterlot, and make sure that nothing reaches Jasper." I nodded, and looked back to the girls. "Twilight, I may need you and your friends to aid me in capturing this human." I said. Twilight and her friends nodded, and rushed home to collect they're things. I looked back to Luna who looked very nervous. I walked to her side, and placed my hoof on her shoulder. She looked up, and smiled. I smiled back. "Do not worry Lulu, we will not allow this human to free Jasper." I said, and she nodded. "I will be at the chariot waiting for you and the girls." she said, and walked off. I looked at the sky, and closed my eyes. 'Jasper will  not return, and I will make sure that he doesn't.' I thought to myself. Soon Twilight and her friends returned with they're things, and we set off to Canterlot. //-------------------------------------------------------// Bad news :[ //-------------------------------------------------------// Bad news :[ Hey everyone, as you can tell from the title, I have some bad news.
