Please note that this story is currently unfinished and needs editing.

Ash Trotter was a ministry of arcane science (MAS) magic weapons designer building better laser weapons. He and other scientists were sent to a privet stable to design new technology for equestria. But it was sabotaged and most of the inhabitants were ghoulified. Now ash and his friends go from Manehattan to Caledonia (Heroes) all the while discovering the wonders of the past.

Prologue

Prologue: Enlightening

War… war never changes.

“How can they still be making those posters? You’d think the MOI would have caught them by now.” Stitch said.

As we walk down the road we notice crude posters on every building in sight. Ever since we officially declared war on the zebras, posters, flyers and anonymous documents have been appearing all over equestria. They all start the same way, ‘War… war never changes.’ Then they each go off into some metaphysical observation about conflict, or our true nature, or how the world will look 200 years from now. The ministry of image has officially declared this as unpatriotic, corruptive material and has been trying to destroy it. But no matter how many posters they burn, new ones are made and put up.

“I don’t think it’s the same ponies. I think it’s like some kind of underground movement of peaceful protesters trying to end all hostilities.” I replied.

“If it’s peaceful, then why don’t they just stand outside the castle or ministry walk like everypony else?” Stitch said in annoyance.

“Because they aren't every everypony.” I said with just a hint of sass. “And if they did they would be dragged into the MOM for a memory orb treatment.”

“Ash do you really think the MOM is abducting us in the middle of the night and stealing our memories?” Stitch said jokingly.

“There is no way to not know.” Stitch’s face contorted in confusion. “After the MOM takes your memories they make you forget you were ever abducted. You would never know your mind was probed.” I could see my friends suddenly realized the implications of what I said. “Did you never think about this before?” I asked.

“No, not really… I don’t know.” From his expression I could tell he wasn't lying, he never thought about this before. Knowing stitch that is strange.

We have always debated about the ministries, usually about ethics or questionable practices. Our favorites were always The MWP ‘ministry of wartime profiteers’ or The MOM, saying they are paranoid spies looking at our mail and reading our minds. We saw The MOI as the enlightened perpetuating ignorance. The MOA are either lazy noponys or a glorified branch of the military. The MAS… well other than developing weapons, which is what we are supposed to do, I can’t think of much, maybe I’m biased because I work for them. Finally there’s the MOP, stitch's branch. After what stitch told me I’m not surprised he hates it.

“But why would they do it. Why would we be conspirators? I mean, we are both big names in the MOP and MAS, so why would they think we are traitors?”

“They think anypony who isn't all ‘ra, ra, celestia is god, zebras are evil, ra ra’ is a conspirator. War stifles ponies’ capacity for abstract thought and sympathy. It’s easier to kill and fight something when you see it as either a direct threat or as something less than yourself. And don’t think we are the only guilty party here, the zebras believe we are being manipulated by evil stars via Nightmare Moon.”

“I thought you said religion was bullshit?”

“No. I said organized religion is bullshit. I am in no position to judge anypo…” catching myself, I corrected. “Anybody’s beliefs. I believe religion gives us hope and solace when facing grate danger or fear. It’s when people use religion to perpetuate fear, stigmatize others, or profit that irritates me. I respect the zebra religion but they all believe in it to a degree where even the slightest correlation to the stars makes something taboo. I think I’d be fine with it if there were some zebras whose beliefs in it weren’t soo… zealous. I guess Bigotry and zealotry seem to go hoof in hoof don’t you think?”

“Yeah, I know. But maybe we shouldn’t think about that, I mean we are going into a stable. A stable, Ash! Just think about it!” the Ministry of Arcane sciences Research stable, or simply the Science Stable, is a joint project between the ministries of arcane science and technology. Its purpose is to gather the brightest minds of the ministries and bring them together into a secure location. From there we would spend the next 5 years developing new technologies for equestria, sending them beck via secure terminal channels. I was selected as head of Energy weapons development. Stitch was selected for his knowledge of Medical technology. Together, along with other brilliant pony minds, we would invent new sources of power, food, and of course weapons to end the war.

“A new life, a fresh start, plus all those mares!”

“Only you would need to be trapped in a hole in the ground for a girl to like you, stitch.” I smirked.

“Whatever, like you have done any better.”

“I’m alone by choice.” I lied.

“ya, keep telling yourself that.” As we looked at the giant gear shaped door of the stable, Stitch and I let out a simultaneous,

“Whoa.” We stood in a crowd of 500 scientist ponies, most dressed in scrubs and lab coats, mostly unicorn I noticed. I shuttered at the grating sound of the stable door unlocking, it sounded like the gears were rusted. As the door opened a voice boomed.

“Greetings professors, doctors and scientists alike, my name is twilight sparkle. I formally welcome you to the Ministry of Arcane sciences Research stable. It is here that you will spend the next 5 years of your lives in the company of fellow ponies of science. I would like to assure you that this is a fully functioning stable-tech stable, complete with every luxury and facility you will ever want or need. A fully stocked digital library, diverse all natural gardens and an atrium for group activities. You will find all state of the art equipment and tools to help you in your studies. Many of you personally requested items and the ministry has complied supplying specialized items just for you. What makes this stable truly unique are the 6 interchangeable and customizable labs for major projects. The Ministry of Arcane sciences, and myself personally, would like to thank you for your cooperation and hope you have the time of your lives.”

Quest (insert Ch)

Ghoulification- you have been baptized twice: once in water, the other in bale-fire. you have been exposed to an unholy amount of radiation & survived. yay? your new status as a ghoul comes with a list of perks & penalties. you no longer suffer from radiation sickness but can still die from deadly radiation poisoning. Your level resets so you can pick from all new Ghoul traits & perks. however, some perks will be taken automatically at some levels. Chems, including healing potions, are only half as effective, but have half the chance of addiction. your "new looks" will influence your interactions with others, opening new speech options. ghouls don't suffer from hunger, dehydration or sleep deprivation, at least not traditionally. you also have a new issue to face becoming feral. normal wasteland heroes just deal with moral guilt or insanity, but you take the mental health game to a whole new level. whenever you gain evil karma, stay in radiation, eat raw meat, or suffer from dehydration, hunger or exhaustion your Feral meter rises. at each level of you lose intelligence, accuracy & become prone to psychotic attacks. Eventually, you will turn Totally feral which will result in a game over. Blessing or Curse? you decide. Good luck, your gonna need it. Ch 1

Glowing One- Extreme radiation exposure has left you glowing in the dark! Your friends might be dead but look on the Bright Side! (too soon?) Darkness is no obstacle to you or your enemies. Sneaking is now more difficult because your a pony shaped night light. wearing full body armor will keep you in the dark. You irradiate everything around you, items, foes & allies. Wearing radiation resistant armor will prevent radiation bleed. You can also create a small burst of radiation around yourself, every 5 seconds, causing minor damage & raising the radiation level for a few seconds.

Just a quick pep talk for all of you out there and far away from the collection of rusted iron and duct tape that we now call "civilization." Boring as it may seem to some of you self proclaimed iron ponies, but one of the most important things you can do is stay hydrated. If the Goddesses like you and you can find some pure water great, but even if you can't, stomach those rads. Trust me, thirst will kill you faster than the radiation.

(In more exciting and life threatening news, it seems we have a rise in Alicorn activity. These mothers are some of the most dangerous monsters out there in the Equestria Wasteland. Strong, fast, and smarter than the average Ursa. Unless you're packing a missile or a train car, don't bother fighting. Make like a rainbow and dash!)

They think the only way to kill us is to shoot us in the head, like in the old zombie stories, and that will put us out of our misery."

Have I tried to chew on your skull, sir? Perhaps you've noticed my ability to string words into complete sentences?

Live it up while it lasts

Karma's a real bitch. You'd be wise to remember that

"Who the hell are you? Better yet, what the hell are you doing in this cursed place?"

Your misery, my wealth
While there is no law in Underworld, per se, I'd rather not end up at the receiving end of an angry lynch mob
There is no shortage of do-gooders around here and it would be just like them to take it upon themselves to interfere in a fair business transaction.
I may look like a corpse, but I'm partial to living
I never did buy into that religious mumbo-jumbo with the robes and all that shit.
Religion and me never really got along, but they're good company.
I don't have to tell you that Bright's group has got some fine-looking ghoulettes in it! Eh... or maybe I would have to tell you

Each of us shall give birth to a billion stars formed from the mass of our wretched and filthy bodies
Give your bodies to Atom, my friends. Release yourself to his power, feel his Glow and be Divided.
Come forth and drink the waters of the Glow, for this ancient weapon of war is our salvation, it is the very symbol of Atom's glory!
Behold! He's coming with the clouds! And every eye shall be blind with his glory! Every ear shall be stricken deaf to hear the thunder of his voice!
Yea, your suffering shall exist no longer; it shall be washed away in Atom's Glow, burned from you in the fire of his brilliance
Where most of the lost children of Atom see that event as simple war and devastation, we see creation and unification in Atom's Glow
Those who were called to Atom during the Great Division were very fortunate. They were permitted to aid in the process of Atom's creation
We seek the same, both in symbol and in fact and the "bomb", as you call it, represents Atom's capacity for creation
We kneel before it and ask that Atom call us to aid him. We pray that out of our meager bodies, he will create new life.
We are the Apostles of Eternal Light. To heal this wounded city, we are willing to provide any and all supplicants with cleansing holy water.
We will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the Water of Light.
Ah, I can see the glint of Atom's Light in your eyes
I saw Atom's Holy Light. I TOUCHED Atom himself! I felt his warm embrace
I have been created anew by Atom's transmuting fire.
I must stay here. Pray and think. Think and pray. It will come to me. What must be done. Soon Atom will reveal his plan to me. Yes. Yes. Yeeeees!
Atom in my head. Atom in my heart. Atom is in all things. Atom is all things. Atom... Atom... Atom.
Children of the Light, hear my words and feel Atom's warmth!
Oh, my brethren, let us share with them the Waters of Light!
Let them be fulfilled by Atom! Let them know his glow and be truly Enlightened!
And let them live forever, and walk with us in the grace of Atom's Glow, and never be empty again!
Atom came to me with a vision: the starving, the ill, the weak, all being made whole and well by receiving the sacrament of Atom's Glow.
And so, with our holy water, we can make this vision a reality. When exposed to Atom's supreme Glow, the ill are reborn in his glowing visage.
Those reborn never hunger, never suffer, and never age. All our Enlightened brethren need is to know Atom's Glow, and they are happy.
Sadly, only a small number of supplicants truly achieve Eternal Light. The rest must be satisfied with Enlightenment and an end to their suffering.
So many misunderstand Atom, and fear the Glow of his Light as a thing of destruction, rather than humanity's next step towards perfection.
With this marvelous holy water, they drink without fear, and by the time the Glow consumes them, they have no need to fear ever again.
Is that truly what it looks like to others? We only mean to tend to the ill and offer them salvation before they pass - we're saviors, not murderers!
A dream of the Prophet of Atom. Ablaze with Holy Light! He told me of my destiny. Of my mission. I was called to service, and I answered.
Gather, all. May the creator guide my words and help me speak true
I am Jason Bright, the prophet of the Great Journey. All the ghouls you see here are members of my flock
An auspicious name, don't you think? It was mine before I became as I am now. Before the Great War, even.
I have glimpsed it only in visions, wanderer, but what I have seen is truly miraculous.
It is a place of light and healing, and I know in my soul that my flock will be safe there.
The creator has promised to my flock a new land: a place of safety and healing... a paradise in the Far Beyond.
Why, to offer Enlightenment to all those who suffer, of course. No more, no less. Atom came to me with a vision: the starving, the ill, the weak, all being made whole and well by receiving the sacrament of Atom's Glow. And so, with our holy water, we can make this vision a reality. When exposed to Atom's supreme Glow, the ill are reborn in his glowing visage. Those reborn never hunger, never suffer, and never age. All our Enlightened brethren need is to know Atom's Glow, and they are happy.
Why... you ARE the Prophet of Atom! I didn't recognize you until now... Your eyes are aglow, your very skin radiates with Atom's Heat! I didn't realize... My Lord, now that you have revealed yourself to me, I do... I see the errors of my ways. Forgive me, for I knew not what I was doing... we will spread your word without the use of the holy water... we will return the Aqua Pura to Megaton. It shall be a test: the worthy will seek us out, and finding us they will find the Message of Atom, drinking the Waters of Light in their souls. Yes! I leave you now, Lord. I can not bear to look upon your shining face any longer.

Greetings. I am Defcon the second, son of T-minus, welcome to the holy land of Gravestone. Your Elder's want Plutonius, our idol of the supreme nuclear power. The mutants want Plutonius too, but they have no respect for our launch
As Bishop of Gravestone, I am the sworn caretaker of the sacred idol of Plutonius. You wish to remove our idol to within the confines of the Brotherhood, yes? Well if you are mighty enough to stop the Pagan-Mutant threat to my flock, you may take our divine patron of atomic fission. Can I have a Hallenneutron
Blessed are those who understand the Divine Release of Charged Atomic Particles. For those who do not shall be plagued with incapacitation and forceful vomiting.'Welcome' to the radiant silos of Plutonius. Defend his irradiated flock of devoted gamma caretakers and be rewarded with an idol containing his heavenly fire. Take these. For His power is harmful to mere humans.
And Plutonius said to Atom, "He who collides with another particle will, in turn, split the air asunder with shimmering power until his enemies are vanquished!!! By purging our lands of the decadent, you will prove yourself worthy of taking the sacred mortal form, of our god "Plutonius", and deliver the flesh of my mighty Lord to your "Bunker of the Holy Brotherhood! This is how He decrees His Will be done!
Like a creature born of mass and energy, you have exploded onto the blasphemers' ranks, separating flesh and bone like so many unstable positrons from the decaying quantum! I now entrust the flesh of my savior, the Lord of Internal Confinement Fission, the Sultan of Lattice Spaced Neutrinos, to you, "Avatar of Irradiated Steel. May the "Ever Contaminating" watch over you and guide your hand.
Woe be to the Holy Flock who suffers Unrighteous Wrath in spite of the Brotherly Shielding offered. And My Lord will tremble with terrible fury at the Untimely Death of his Children. In spite of your inability to completely protect us, it is now His will to entrust you with His mortal shell containing His fiery, godly essence. May the "Ever Contaminating" watch over you and guide your fumbling hand.
Plutonius=holy nuke
Blessed Savior of Plutonius's irradiated flock! My name is Hazmat and I bring you the decaying salutation of our Bishop, Defcon the Second, son of T-minus. I journeyed here to deliver the nuclear scripture defining the magical properties of the Holy Warhead. Only by understanding the earthly workings of our God can you properly detonate the spiritual energy contained within.

"Were trying to find this place out west called Oasis. Supposed to have a lot of good stuff to grab."

Brown bark, green leaves, photosynthesis, all that good stuff. Now what if I, the all-powerful DJ-Pon3, were to tell you that somewhere right here in the Equestrian Wasteland, there's a place with LOTS of trees. A veritable Oasis of green in that depressing sea of brown. Look, it was years ago, and I MAY have been experimenting with Dash at the time, but I'm telling you, it's out there.."

I was having trouble keeping my people out of {outta} Westside.", "I, I ... may have underestimated your abilities.Wipe that grin off your face! Your Brotherhood is no different from us. We both take what we want from these savages. If you think your cause is any more selfless than ours, you're sadly mistaken.", "Alarm! Intruders in the camp! Wake up you piss-ant sons of bitches! I swear I'll cut the balls off anyone I don't see fighting! Get up you curs! If they escape, God help me, I'll burn the mother-fucking still to the ground!",

I'm Cook-Cook, bitch, better not forget it.", "A kick to the balls will seem like an angel's kiss after I'm done.", "I don't care if you scream my name just as long as you scream!", "Mahahaha!

Or that the Everlasting had not fix'd His canon against self-slaughter! O God! God! How weary, stale, flat and unprofitable, Seem to me all the uses of this world! Fie on't, ah fie, 'tis an unweeded garden, That grows to seed; things rank and gross in nature Possess it merely. That it should come to this! But two months dead, nay not so much, not two, So excellent a king, that was, to this Hyperion to a satyr, so loving to my mother That he might not beteem the wings of heaven Visit her face too roughly. Heaven and earth, Must I remember? Why, she would hang on him, As if the increase of appetite had grown By what it fed on; and yet within a month - Let me think not on't; frailty, thy name is woman - A little month, or ere these shoes were old With which she followed my poor father's body Like Niobe, all tears, why she, even she - O God, a beast that wants discourse of reason Would have mourned longer - married with my uncle, My father's brother, but no more like my father Than I to Hercules. Within a month, Ere yet the salt of most unrighteous tears Had left the flushing in her gall'd eyes, She married. O, most wicked speed, to post With such dexterity to incestuous sheets! It is not, nor it cannot come to good. But break my heart, for I must hold my tongue. (Too Solid Flesh soliloquy from Hamlet)",

(laughter) for a good old fashioned slap and crap!", "I have the shiniest meat bicycle!", " I'm the conductor of the poop train!", " I powdered my cockatiel for the ribcage slaughter!", "tasty eyeballs... good for fricassee!", "meat-buddies ridin' the death train", "only you can sate my lust... for MEAT!"
