A Dead Space/MLP Crossover

Isaac and Ellie have just escaped the destruction of the Sprawl, but where will they go now? In an attempt to find their way back to Earth, they end up finding themselves in a land with magical talking ponies, but compared to what they came from, it's a welcome change. However, their "safe-haven" may be in danger as a series of nightmares Isaac begins to have make him question something. Did he really manage to escape the horrors on the Sprawl and the Ishimura? Or are they still after him?

Chapter 1: Where Will We Go Now?

Chapter 1: Where Will We Go Now?

Chapter 1: Where Will We Go Now?

Isaac’s muscles tensed up. His face had an expression of true worry. He hesitated, but then slowly began to turn his head to the right, expecting the worst. He starred at the women next to him and he suddenly felt a great feeling of relief.

“What?” replied Ellie.

“Uhh, It’s nothing. It’s just... you know what? Forget about it. Let’s just get the hell outta here.”

“Alright? Sounds good to me, but where will we go? Should we try to make it to Earth? Or do you think we should try and reach another station?”

“At this point, I don’t know what I want to do. Based on my track record, wherever I seem to go, things just go from bad to worse. Besides, I’m probably considered a criminal or some other bullshit. I wouldn’t be surprised if I get blamed for causing that outbreak.”

“Well, we can’t just stay in space for the rest of our lives? I know some people back on Earth who would be able to help us. In fact, my cousin’s a Therapist. You seem like you could use one.” Ellie said, with a chuckle.

“Ha Ha, very funny Ellie. I’m glad you think what we just went through is funny...”

“You’re right. I’m sorry, it’s just... I’m trying my hardest to keep myself from thinking about it, you know?. All of my friends... my fellow workers...” she paused for a brief moment," Kaleb... they’re all dead.” Ellie began to tear up at this realisation.

Isaac put his arm around her shoulder in an attempt to comfort her. “Shh. It’s gonna be alright. I’m still here, I’ll always be here.” Isaac attempted to put a smile on his face, something he hasn’t done since these events began. Not too much to smile about when you see people get torn apart in front of your very eyes, their bodies then horribly mutated, and then those same “people” trying to kill you. Isaac had almost forgot how to smile.

“Thanks.” Ellie said, as a small smile began to appear on her face. “It’s good to know that you’re here, with me.” They stared into each others eyes, well, she stared into his eyes, he just stared into one eye and a bandage, but the feeling was the same. After looking at eachother for what seemed like forever, Isaac finally pulled away.

“Well,” he began. “Let’s make our way home then, shall we?”

“We are gonna be flying blind. The guidance system seems to have blown a fuse when I crashed through to save you. The only thing we have is the short range radar system, which won’t help us in finding our way to Earth.”

“Ummm, Ellie?”

“Yea?”

“I’m an engineer, remember? I should be able to fix the guidance system in ten seconds flat.”

“Yea, well, even an engineer can’t fix something without tools. And last time I checked, you left any “tools” you had back on the station,” Ellie replied, with a smug grin on her face.

“Not this one, baby,” Isaac patted the plasma cutter, still attached to the side of his thigh.

“And how is that supposed to help you fix the guidance system?” Ellie raised an eyebrow.

“You’d be surprised what I can do with this thing, but you’re right. I’ll check this ship and see if there is anything we can use.” Isaac stood up from his chair and made his way towards the back of their ship. He began rummaging through several of the compartments on the tiny vessel. Lucky for him and Ellie, there seemed to be enough food and water to last them for quite a while, and with a busted guidance system, they may need it. Also lucky for Isaac, it appeared that this ship also contained a large supply of pulse rounds, plasma rounds, several pulse rifles, one line gun, and one beam rifle. Isaac couldn’t contain his happiness. Sadly, however, there was nothing that would be able to fix the guidance system.

A sharp pain quickly removed the smile that had formed on his face. He had somehow managed to completely forget about the javelin that had pierced his left hand and left shoulder just moments before his rescue. He quickly fell to his knees at the pain coursing through him. Ellie sprung from her chair and rushed to his side.

“What’s wrong?” she asked, in a concerned tone.

Isaac raised his bloody hand and pointed to his left shoulder. There were large patches of blood on both his hand and his shoulder that clearly showed that he was in pain. “Heh,” he laughed. “It’s amazing how I somehow forgot that I was injured back there when Tiedemann shot me with a Javelin Launcher. It hurts like hell...ugh.”

“Here, let me help you,” Ellie began rummaging through the compartments looking for the medical supplies. She seemed to be having trouble finding them. After almost 5 minutes, Isaac had enough.

“Umm, Ellie.” He pointed to the compartment with the big red cross symbol on it. “Why don’t you check that one?”

“Oh... right.”

Isaac would’ve facepalmed, had he not been in extreme pain. Ellie quickly removed the medical supplies from the compartment and set to work healing Isaac's wounds.

“I’m gonna need you to remove your armor, Isaac.” came Ellie’s voice.

“Oh, of course. Give me a sec.” Isaac slowly began to remove his armor. He thanked god that he still had the straight jacket on. He didn’t want to make this situation anymore awkward. Just being out of his armor made him feel naked.

Ellie began to bandage Isaac’s wounds, wrapping his hand and shoulder in gause. She then proceeded to remove some health packs from the medical compartment and inject them into Isaac. He almost instantly began to feel better. Those health packs really get the job done. I really need to figure out how they heal so quickly. Isaac thought.

“You’re gonna need to rest for a while, but you’ll be fine.” Ellie told Isaac.

“Thanks. Now then, you fly us outta here and I’m gonna get some much needed rest.”

“Hey! I should be the one resting! If you haven’t noticed, I’m missing my one eye.” she pointed to the bandage, that covered her eye socket.

“And if you haven’t noticed, I just single handedly destroyed another marker. Remember I did this twice now?”

“Yea, yea. Just go to sleep so I can stop listening to you talk.”

“Love you too.” replied Isaac.

Ellie rolled her eye, causing Isaac to let out a quiet laugh, and then returned to the front of the ship and sat back down in her chair. Isaac, on the other hand, pressed a button on the one wall revealing a large cot. He then proceeded to lie down and drift off to sleep.

“Isaac......” came a low voice. “Oh Isaac...”

“Huh? Who’s there?” Isaac darted his eyes back and forth, looking for the mysterious voice.

“You thought you could kill me, didn’t you Isaac?” replied the voice.

“Ni-Nicole? But, you’re dead! I destroyed the marker!”

“And you think that will stop me? Poor, naive Isaac. I can’t be destroyed. I’ll never leave you, Isaac. Not until you make us whole...”

Suddenly, Isaac found himself surrounded by necromorphs. He reached for his plasma cutter, but to his dismay, it was nowhere to be found. Then, another figure took shape next to him. This other figure seemed scared and looked into Isaac’s eyes, begging him to do something.

“Ellie!” Isaac screamed at the figure. “We’ve gotta get outta here!”

“But where will we go, Isaac? There’s nowhere left for us.” Ellie hung her head, as tears began to fall from her one eye.

“Get up Ellie! We have to leave! NOW!” ,but she wouldn’t budge.

“What’s wrong Isaac? Why do you want to save her? I thought you only cared for yourself?” came the voice.

“I won’t let you hurt her! I may have lost you, but I’m not going to lose her!” Isaac yelled.

“Oh my, you must really like her, don’t you? You best let her go before she ends up like me.”

“I’ll never let her go! I’ll die before I let anyone harm her again!” Isaac looked around for any sort of weapon, but all he saw was a wall of necromorphs that were now rushing at him and Ellie. He jumped in front of Ellie and held his fists up.

“You think you can stop the inevitable? The Isaac I knew was much smarter than that.”

The first necromorph came at Isaac. Isaac dodged its attack and slammed his fist into the jaw of the attacker. The necromorphs head flew off its shoulders sending a torrent of blood spraying over Isaac’s body.

Damn. He thought to himself. I guess I don’t know my own strength. Several others then began their assault on Isaac. Isaac dodged their attacks and threw back some of his own.

“I could use some help, Ellie!” pleaded Isaac.

“What’s the point? Why should we keep fighting? It’s hopeless.” Ellie remained, in a kneeling position, as a necromorph targeted her.

“NOO!” Isaac wailed as the necromorph began its attack on Ellie. Ellie screamed in agony as she was impaled by the blades of the slasher. The slasher then lifted Ellie into the air, and ripped her literally in half, tossing both halves in opposite directions as Ellie’s insides poured onto the floor in a pool of blood.

“She was right Isaac, it is hopeless. You can’t escape. You’ll never escape. Make us whole, Isaac.”

“I’LL KILL YOU!” Isaac screamed, in anger and sadness, as he rushed towards Nicole who was in the center of the “room” they were in.

Several necromorphs attempted to stop him, but to no avail. Isaac even managed to rip off a slasher’s blades and proceeded to cut his way through the thick crowd of necromorphs, slicing what seemed to be hundreds of them into pieces. Isaac noticed a number of Lurkers begin to run at him, tentacles at the ready. His response was to impale two of them with the blades in his hands, and smash the others faces with his boots. He was invincible. Nothing would stop him from reaching his target. He was finally just a few feet from Nicole, he raised the blades and charged at her.

“Make us whole, Isaac. You have to make us whole. It’s the only way to stop this.”

“Shut up!” Isaac rammed the blades deep into Nicole. He then ripped them out and slashed her head off. Blood exploded out of the hole, where Nicole’s head once laid. Her lifeless body fell to the ground.

Isaac felt tears running down his face. He dropped the blades and feel to his knees. “I’m sorry Ellie...” he said, through his tears, “And I’m sorry...Nicole.”

A voice was heard through the silence. “Isaac!”

Isaac remained on the ground, crying.

“Isaac!”

He stared at his bloodied hands in horror. “I’m so sorry.”

“ISAAC!” The tone of the voice made Isaac spring up.

“I’m sorry Nicole!” Isaac looked around. He was back on the ship. He looked over to Ellie, who was obviously worried about him. He had been sweating profusely and a large puddle of sweat had formed on the bed along with some of the blood from his wounds.

“It’s ok Isaac. You were dreaming, and who’s Nicole?”

“Long story,” Isaac sighed. “I’ll tell you another time. Thanks for waking me up, though.”

“No problem. You looked like you were having one hell of a dream. Wanna tell me about it?”

“Well you see I-... actually, I’ll tell you that another time too.”

“Well we’re gonna have a lot of time to kill, we won’t be reaching Earth for at least a week.”

“You managed to find Earth?” asked Isaac.

“Hopefully. If not, and we end up going in the wrong direction, then...well.”

“We’re screwed?”

“Took the words right outta my mouth.”

“Well then, lets hope you’re right about this. It would sure suck if we went through all that shit, just to die in space.”

“Tell me about it...”

“Anyways, I’m kinda hungry. Care to make me something to eat?” Isaac asked.

“What do i look like? Your slave? You look healthy enough to make your own food.”

Isaac sighed. “Fine. I guess I’ll get myself something to eat. But, I’ll remember this when you ask me to do you a favor.”

“And what would I ever need you to do for me? I can handle myself, can’t I?”

“Sure you can...” Isaac said, in a sarcastic tone, as he began to rummage through the containers of food, looking for something that would satisfy his hunger.

Ellie rolled her eye for the second time. “This is gonna be a fun week.” she said, with feigned enthusiasm.

“You know it, babe. It’s gonna be like one big party!”

“Isaac! Come check this out!” Ellie yelled from her chair in the cockpit of the ship.

Isaac hoped outta his bed and walked up to her side. They had been travelling for what seemed to be days. Kinda hard to tell how much time has passed when you’re in space. If it weren’t for the ship’s clock, they would have no idea how long they’d been aboard that ship.

“What’s up, Ellie?” asked, a much healed Isaac.

“Look at the short ranged radar.” she pointed to the radar screen, which showed a very large object, not too far from their position. “The radar has found a nearby planet!”

“Is it Earth?” Isaac asked, as a surge of anticipation began to flood him.

“According to the readings...ummm...yes. I believe it’s Earth. It seems to meet all of the conditions necessary to sustain human life. It appears to be the same size and it also has a single moon that matches the moon of Earth.”

“Well, let’s hope it is Earth. We don’t have enough fuel to keep going much farther.”

“Of course it’s Earth! What other planet could match the description so perfectly? I knew I was right! Just like how I knew I was right to save you.” They stared at eachother, before looking back through the window of the ship.

“Yea, about that, I never got to thank you for saving me back there,” Isaac said, in the most sincere way he could.

“You’re welcome. It’s the least I could do. I mean, if we hadn’t run into each other, I wouldn’t have made it off the Sprawl. Though, I’d still have my other eye, though.” Ellie began to laugh, and Isaac joined in.

“You only need one eye, Ellie. But, once we land, I’ll make it my job to get you a brand new eye!”

“Can’t wait!”

The ship began to approach what they hoped was Earth. The large sphere began to come into view of their ship. It did look an awful lot like Earth, but something seemed...off.

“Why do the continents and oceans seem to be wrong? I mean, I haven’t seen Earth in forever, but I don’t remember it looking like that.”

“I know. It seems odd to me too, but we don’t have much of a choice. This planet is capable of supporting life. That’s good enough for me.”

“Couldn’t agree more. Now, let’s land this thing. It’ll be good to feel the ground beneath my feet, but just to be safe, I’ll go get my armor on and grab my plasma cutter and a pulse rifle. I recommend you do the same.” Isaac walked to the back of the and began putting on his armor and grabbing his weapons of choice.

“Already have it with me,” Ellie patted the cutter at her side, before turning the auto-pilot off and taking manual control of the ship.

The ship began its steady descend to the surface of “Earth.” Several towns and cities began to appear across the surface of the planet, as well as a multitude of forests, mountains, hills and valleys.

“Ellie. Look at those cities.” He pointed to one that resembled an ancient New York City. “Don’t these cities seem...dated to you?”

“I see what you mean and I don’t see any space ports or runways for us to land at. The only good place I see for us to bring this ship down is that open field near that one town.” Ellie pointed to her intended landing site and Isaac turned his head to check it out.

The town seemed rather small compared to the ones Isaac was used to, and it seemed like the buildings were made out of wood. This confused Isaac. We stopped using wood as a building material decades ago. Why is it that this town has so many wooden buildings?, Isaac thought.

“I don’t think this is Earth. but whatever it is, people are living here. It almost seems to resemble old human architecture.” Isaac noted.

“Well let’s hope whatever lives here is friendly. Well, more friendly than those things on the Sprawl were.”

Isaac hoped that what Ellie said was correct. His last encounter with aliens didn’t work out so well for him and Ellie.

“Ok. I’m bringing ‘er in. Strap yourself in, Isaac!”

Isaac sat down in the neighboring chair and strapped himself in. He was beginning to worry. What if he had left one mess and was about to be forced into another one?

“Hey Twilight! Come check this out!” Spike called, from the upstairs of the library.

“What is it Spike? Can’t you see I’m busy organising these books?” came the voice of a lavender unicorn, who had a large number of books hovering around her that she was attempting to put away.

“Put those books down and get up here!” snapped the baby purple dragon. “Some weird thing is flying around outside! It looks to be as big as a house! It’s really cool looking!”

“WHAT?!” Twilight yelled, as she let the many books plummet to the ground. She rushed upstairs, pushed Spike out of the way of the window he had been looking through and stared into the sky.

Spike was right. There was some large object flying near the town. It appeared to be coming in for a landing in the fields near Sweet Apple Acres. Twilight gasped. “What is that thing?” she wondered.

“How am I supposed to know?” responded the tiny dragon. “Now can you move over? I want to watch too!”

Twilight moved away from the window and began to pack a pair of saddlebags.

“Where are you planning on going, Twi?” Spike raised one eyebrow.

“I’m going to investigate what’s going on. Don’t wait up!” She then made a dash for the door.

“Can I come?” Before Spike could get a response, the door slammed shut behind her, as she walked out into the town.

Spike shrugged and then looked out the window again. “Huh? Where’d it go?” his eyes scanned the sky, but found no trace of the strange object.

Isaac and Ellie landed the ship in the field. Isaac got up from his chair, as his helmet built itself around his face. He grabbed the pulse rifle he had recovered from the one compartment and made his way to the ship’s exit. “You stay here.” he ordered. “I’ll go see if it’s safe.” He loaded his pulse rifle and pressed the button that began opening the door.

“Don’t do anything stupid.” came Ellie’s voice.

“Come on, Ellie. When haven’t I done something stupid?”

“Just don’t get yourself killed, alright?”

“Don’t worry. I can take care of myself. Plus, I’ve got this baby.” Isaac waved his pulse rifle in the air, before returning it to its ready position. The door slowly opened and Isaac was blinded with the light of the outside. He stepped outside, ready to take on whatever was waiting for him.

Chapter 2: Confrontation

Chapter 2: Confrontation

Isaac stepped out into the blinding light. He held his hand in front of his visor in an attempt to block out the rays of light streaming at him. As he placed his foot on the ground he noticed something he hadn’t felt in a long time. The ground beneath him was soft, not hard like the metal plates he had been accustomed to walking on. It gave way under the weight of his suit, causing him to leave footprints as he walked.

He held his rifle up to his shoulder as he scanned his surroundings. He noticed rolling hills off to, what he presumed was, the west. He noticed tall mountains directly in front of him that seemed to touch the sky. To his right he noticed some sort of orchard off in the distance. As he continued to scan the area, rifle still at the ready, he noticed something a little odd. Under a tree just a few steps from his current position, he saw a checkered pattern blanket which appeared to have a basket and several plates with food on top of it. It’s not like he had never seen a picnic before, but what caused some confusion was the fact that whoever had been eating there seemed to have fled the scene before he had arrived. He then noticed several other things strewn throughout the area. Several appeared to be toys of some sort and there was also a hefty amount of books and other items. It looked as though everyone cleared out in a hurry, leaving whatever they had been doing behind.

This made Isaac wonder, If this was Earth, why would everyone flee at the sight of a ship landing? On the Earth Isaac remembered, seeing ships flying around and landing was a daily occurrence. In fact, it had been a common sight for long before Isaac was even born. So why did these people flee as if they had seen some sort of horror raining from the sky?

Isaac raised his rifle again. He was certain that something was amiss and was determined to find out what’s going on.

“How’s it going out there Isaac?” came Ellie’s voice through Isaac’s helmet comm.

“It seems as though everyone around cleared out in a hurry. I’m going to go see if I can find anyone. Stay in the ship until I give the all clear, copy?”

“Loud and clear. Keep me updated with what’s going on. I’m gonna lock down the ship just in case.”

“Good call,” Isaac replied. He turned his head back to the ship and noticed the door begin closing and a series of metal plates began to cover the glass of the cockpit. Isaac put his attention back on the objective at hand. He needed to find out where the hell he was, whether it was Earth, and whether or not it’s hostile here. Isaac decided that his next course of action should be to make his way towards that town they had landed near. Hopefully he would get some answers once he arrived. Isaac walked on until he found a road that lead into town. He lowered his rifle and held it across his chest. He wondered if he should remove his helmet, but decided against it. Can’t take that chance. If this turns out to be some sort of alien planet, I need to be prepared for a fight. After Isaac’s last run in with “aliens” he wasn’t too big on the idea of meeting another set of them.

“God, please let this be Earth,” Isaac pleaded as he began his march towards the town.

“Hey! Applejack!” called Twilight as she approached Sweet Apple Acres. Applejack was on the front porch of her home, but as soon as she saw her friend approach she ran up to greet her.

“Well, howdy there Twi. What brings yah out here?”

Twilight got straight to the point, “Applejack, did you notice a strange looking object land around here?” asked the lavender unicorn.

“Umm nope. Can’t say that Ah have. Though Ah ain’t quite sure whatcha mean by “strange object?”

“Oh, well... I saw something flying around near here and It looked as though it had landed somewhere in the area. Are you sure you didn’t see anything?”

“As sure as cider Ah am!” responded the orange earth pony in her signature southern accent.

“Oh. Well, would it be okay if I had a look around then?”

“Go ahead Twi! You’re free to look wherevr’ yah please!”

“Thanks, Applejack.” The unicorn then trotted through the orchard looking high and low for the object she had seen earlier in the day. To her dismay, she wasn’t able to find any clues that could tell her where that object had went.

Isaac arrived at the outskirts of the town. It seemed that everyone in the town had just up and left. Isaac began to worry. What if it wasn’t my ship that caused all these people to flee? What if something bad has happened?) Isaac clenched the gun in his hand tightly and began to walk through the barren town. Isaac walked passed what appeared to be several stalls in what seemed to be the town's market. Once again, the area was empty. A deathly silence filled the town. Isaac couldn’t help but feel... like something was watching him. He spun around and aimed his rifle. He darted around the area, pointing his weapon in all directions. He saw nothing, but he knew that something saw him. He turned back to one of the market stalls and noticed several small gold coins on the surface of the stall. His interest peaked and he picked them up in his hand. He examined them, one by one.

“What sort of currency is this? Metal coins? We haven’t used money like this in ages. I wonder if-”

“Stop right there!” came a loud voice from behind, causing Isaac to drop the coins in his hand. “Place the coins back where you found them and turn around slowly. We are placing you under arrest, by order of Princess Celestia.”

“Princess Celestia?” Isaac began to turn around, “What are you talk-” Isaac lost his words as he saw the sight before him. Several creatures had him surrounded. They stood on four legs and were up to Isaac’s shoulders in height. They were a bright white color and each one seemed to look exactly like the other. Isaac couldn’t help, but think that these creatures looked like... horses? They also appeared to be wearing some form of armor on their bodies. The armor that they wore was gold in color, similar to the coins Isaac was inspecting just moments before. The one in the middle appeared to be the leader.

One of the creatures looked at Isaac quizzingly, “Did you just speak our language?”

“Did you just... speak?” replied a very confused Isaac.

“Well of course we did. Can’t you see our mouths moving?” the tone at which the creature responded caused Isaac to become a little irritated. “Now, we have one question before we take you away. Who are you, or rather What are you?”

“My name is Isaac Clarke. I’m a human engineer from-” Isaac stopped his monologue as he realized what else the creature had said. “Did you just say you’re going to take me away?”

“Yes. We have orders from the princess herself to bring whoever was in that object in for questioning. We promise that you will not be harmed.”

“I barely trust my own species. You really think I’m gonna trust you? I’m not going anywhere.”

“You don’t have any say in the matter. Sergeant!” the creature looked over at one of the other creatures. “Arrest this thing and prepare it for transport!”

“Yes sir!” responded the other. The creature pulled some object, which resembled handcuffs, out from the bags at it’s side and began to approach Isaac.

Isaac noticed a crowd forming behind the creatures in the armor. The others were coming out of nearby houses. Isaac saw a sea of colors as they poured from their homes to view this intruder to their world. Isaac was becoming increasingly popular. He then noticed the creature with the cuffs was just a few feet away. I didn’t go through hell just to be arrested by a bunch of talking horse-things.

Isaac raised his rifle and aimed it at the approaching creature. “Back off!” Isaac ordered. “I didn’t come here to be taken in by a bunch of talking horses.”

The creature stopped its approach and looked at Isaac’s rifle in confusion, but soon it began to walk towards Isaac again.

“It seems you don’t know what this thing is," Isaac paused before continuing, "I’ll give a demonstration.”

Twilight nearly jumped out of her coat as she heard a series of loud bangs came from the direction of town.

“What in Celestia’s name was that?” asked Twilight as she looked over at Ponyville. Applejack came running at Twilight before stopping right in front of her.

“Hey Twi!” said the orange pony, “Did ya’ll hear that?”

“Yes Applejack, I did. Let’s go see what’s going on. Come on!” they began a sprint back to town to investigate what was the cause of that noise.

“Now that I have your attention,” began Isaac, “I’m not going anywhere with you.”

The creature that had attempted to arrest him was now shaking after hearing the loud sound that came from Isaac’s rifle as he fired it into the air. The crowd that had formed had decreased in size as the firing of the rifle caused several of the onlooking creatures to flee in terror.

“Now, would you kindly get out of my way so I can return to my ship? I can meet your princess another tim-”

“Guards! Seize that thing’s weapon!”

“Yes, Captain!”

Two of the creatures that surrounded Isaac took into the air. These ones seemed to have wings. Great, Isaac thought They can fly too?

As the two creatures prepared to tackle Isaac to the ground, they were met with a hard metallic object. Isaac smashed the butt of his rifle against the side of his attackers' heads, sending them crashing to the ground.

“Big mistake,” Isaac scoffed as he looked down at the two unconscious bodies before him. Several of the other creatures now charged at Isaac. One of them was flying but the others were trotting at him at full speed. The flying one met the same fate as the other two as it felt the hard metal of a pulse rifle impact against its head. However, Isaac suddenly found his rifle flying from his hand as he was tackled to the ground. The creature who had tackled him was doing it’s best to hold him down.

“Heads up!” Isaac called at the thing on top of him as he smashed his helmet into the face of the creature sending it flying off off him before falling to the ground with an audible thud.

Isaac sprung to his feet just as another attacker tried its hoof at this strange metal monster who had defeated the others in its squad. The creature swung its hoof at the monsters face, only to have it dodged. Isaac lashed back with a barrage of punches. Isaac finished off his attacker with and right hook to its head. He stood there for a second, looking around at his failed attackers, before turning his attention to the leader of this group of creatures. The leader was shaking and had a look of extreme fear on its face as it stared at the rows of lights that made up Isaac’s visor.

“What? Aren’t you gonna try to arrest me? Or have you realized that I’m not going down without a fight?” Isaac began to slowly step towards the creature.

“Everypony run! It’s gonna kill us all!” yelled a terrified pony as she ran past Twilight and Applejack.

“What monster?” questioned Twilight, but before she could get an answer, the horrified pony disappeared into a house and slammed the door shut. Twilight noticed a small stampede of ponies all fleeing from this “monster.”

“Come on Aj! We have to see what’s going on!”

“Ah’m right behind yah, Twi!”

As they made their way through the crowd of fleeing ponies, Twilight tried to ask some of them what was going on. However, the ponies were too scared to respond or even acknowledge that Twilight had spoken to them. Something has really got these ponies spooked, Twilight noted.

They continued running through the crowd of horrified ponies and soon they found what had caused the other ponies to flee. Twilight and Applejack stopped dead in the tracks and stared at the sight before them. There were five unconscious royal guards on the ground, three were pegasi while the other two were Earth ponies. That, however, was not what caught Twilight’s eyes. It was the tall, metallic looking creature that was slowly making its way towards the last remaining royal guard. The creature stood on two legs, had a bluish tint, and had three rows of bright, blue lights that Twilight assumed were the creatures eyes. Twilight was frozen with fear and shock. It was obvious that this metallic being had defeated those royal guards and it seemed as though he was about to finish off the last one.

Isaac stopped two feet in front of the shaking royal guard, brought his helmet up to its face, and said, ”Boo!.” The guard fainted and fell to the ground hard. Isaac couldn’t help but laugh.

“I didn’t think that would work,” he said in between laughs. “Now then, where is my rifle?” Isaac looked around on the ground for a short time before spotting it. He picked it back up and checked it to make sure it hadn’t been damaged when he dropped it. “Looks good,” he said to himself. “Now I think I should probably leave before more show u-” Isaac froze and looked at the two figures that had been watching him. They didn’t look like the creatures he had just fought, at least not exactly. It was obvious that they were horses, but they were more colorful then the guards that tried to arrest him. One was a purple-ish color, had a horn, and seemed to be in extreme shock. The other, was orange and wore a cowboy hat. Isaac wasn’t quite sure why it wore that hat and was even more confused by the horn that the purple one was sporting on its head. He quickly realized that now was not the time to be questioning what he was seeing. He had just knocked out several of what he assumed were soldiers and he thought that he best not linger around here for too long.

Isaac heard a loud rumbling noise coming from behind him and turned to see what was causing it. To his dismay, he saw more guards... many more.

“Attack that thing boys, before it has a chance to harm anymore ponies!” yelled one of the guards.

Isaac figured now was a good time as any to make an escape. He activated his jet boots and deployed two wing-like flaps on the back of his suit. He then lifted off and began to fly back to the field he had originally landed in. The guards that were pegasi took off after him while Twilight, still shocked by what she had seen, turned to face Aj.

“We’ve got to go help those guards catch that thing!” announced Twilight as she ran off after Isaac with Aj not too far behind her.

Isaac tilted his head back and noticed that his pursuers were catching up to him. He made a quick halt, turned around, and brought his right hand up. Suddenly, a stream of blue light shot out of his hand causing the pursuing pegasi to almost freeze completely, their movements slowed to a snails pace.

“God, I love stasis,” Isaac said as he rocket off towards the fields where he would find his means of escape.

Twilight, having just witnessed Isaac freeze the trailing pegasi, nearly tripped as she came to an abrupt halt.

“Did ya’ll see that?” came to voice of her friend, who appeared to be just as shocked as Twilight.

“Yes, but... what did it just do to those pegasi?”

“Ah have no idea,”

Isaac came to a quick landing just mere yards away from his ship. He began to run towards the ship while yelling into the comms of his helmet.

“Ellie open the ship up! We need to get out of here!” There was no response.

“Ellie? Come on, Ellie! We have to go, NOW!” Once again no response.

“Damit! Where the hell is sh-” he stopped talking as a large group of guards emerged from behind his ship. They began to form a large circle around him as the ones that had been pursuing him finally caught up.

Isaac was once again surrounded, but this time, there was too many to take on. Isaac realized that if he wanted to escape, he’d have to use deadly force. He raised his rifle, put his finger on the trigger, aimed, and...

Isaac suddenly saw a purple aura engulf his rifle and he felt as though something was trying to rip it out of his hands.

“What the hell?” he questioned as he struggled to keep the rifle in his grip. He tried his best to hold onto it, but the pulling was too strong. He watched as his rifle was lifted out of his hands and was floated over to the purple creature that he saw back in the town. Its horn was now glowing as the rifle came to her side.

Isaac now began to worry, but he then remembered something.

“What did you do to Ellie?” Isaac yelled at the group that was surrounding him. One of the creatures stepped forward. It was the one that had fainted earlier, only now he seemed less afraid now that it had backup.

“You mean that other creature that was in that thing?” responded the guard, “She’s already been taken into custody. She was much easier to capture than you were.”

“I swear to god, if you hurt her I will rip you in fucking half!” Isaac was furious.

“Don’t worry. As long as you surrender no harm will come to her.”

Isaac reached for the plasma cutter at his side, but hesitated. He thought for a second and then raised his arms into the air.

“Fine. You win. I’ll come quietly. Ellie better be alright or else me and you are gonna have a big problem. And you better believe I won’t hold back like I did earlier.”

Several guards then approached Isaac and placed his hands in cuffs. A purple aura then surrounded the cuffs clamping them tightly around Isaac’s wrists. Great, Isaac thought, I can take out hordes upon hordes of necros, but a bunch of talking/flying/magic ponies manage to capture me. Isaac sighed. Isn’t life funny?

[April Fool's Chapter]

Chapter 3: What Just Happened?

"Ugh... my.. head," Isaac placed his hand on his forehead. "It hurts like hell. Wait, where am I?" Isaac stood up from the bed he had been laying on and scanned the room he found himself in. The room was large and very dark. Isaac wasn't even able to see the edges of the room as it seemed to extend forever. Isaac got to his feet and searched around to see if there was anyway out.

He heard a noise.

"Hello? Is anyone there?" Isaac asked as he searched for the cause of the sound. He got no response back. Isaac began to worry. It wasn't the first time he found himself in a situation like this, but that didn't make it anymore comfortable.

Suddenly a figure came out of the shadows. It was one of those ponies. It was yellow and had a pink mane that partly covered its face. The small creature seemed to be terrifeid out of its mind. Isaac slowly began to approach the shy mare.

"Are you ok?" Isaac asked with a hint of nervousness in his voice. He wasn't sure why he was trying to talk to it, but he didn't care.

"Umm... yea. I'm fine." the shy mare responded.

"Well, what is your name?" came Isaac's voice.

"Uhh... my names... Fluttershy," the mare barely whispered those words.

"I'm sorry I didn't catch that. What's your name again?"

"Fluttershy..." the mare responded even quieter than before.

"I didn't catch that?"

The shy thing made a small eep that made Isaac's heart skip a beat since it was soooooo cute.

"Well then. What are you doing here?" Isaac asked.

The mare suddenly perked up as she jumped up and tackled Isaac to the ground. "OH! I'm here to make us whole!"

"What the fu- OH MY GOD!" Isaac screamed as the pink haired mare suddenly began to morph. Her forehoofs seemed to split revealing two large blades. The skin on her face melted away sending a waterfall of blood pouring onto Isaac's suit. The wings at the side of the creature began to become bladed and doubled in size. The chest of the pony bursted open sending more blood and organs falling onto Isaac.

"Get off me!" Isaac screamed as he threw the necropony off of him sending the creature smashing into the ground.

Isaac got to his feet and his mouth droped as he saw the sight before him. Everywhere he turned he saw more and more necroponies. The pink haired one he had just thrown was getting back up and began rushing at him. Isaac knew what he had to do. He reached his hand down to his thigh and revealed the ultimate weapon. He pointed it at the charging "shy" mare and fired....

"BANG BANG BANG!" Isaac yelled. "BANG BANG BANG!" He switched the weapon to alt fire, "PEWPEWPEWPEWPEWPEWPEW!"

The charging necro pony nearly exploded from the power of Isaac's weapon. It fell to the ground in a pool of blood and body parts. Isaac aimed his "hand" cannon at the crowd of necroponies that had surrounded him.

"PEWPEWPEWPEWPEWP BANG BANG BANG!"

Several of the necros fell to the floor as the wepon tore through their bodies sending limbs flying all over the place. Isaac couldn't help but smile at his work. He had always loved this weapon of his.

Out of the group a necropony flew in front of Isaac. The speed she had used to reach him shocked Isaac and caused him to stop firing. The necropony spoke.

"I'm the fastest necro in Equestria!" it boasted. The thing seemed to have a rainbow colored mane. However, its mane was more red now due to the blood that drenched it.

"Fastest eh?" Isaac retorted, "Well lets see you dodge this! BANG!"

The head of the rainbow maned necro was blown clear of its shoulders sending a fountain of blood into the air. Most of the blood landed on Isaac's exposed face. He licked some of it into his mouth, "Tastes like Skittles." he noted.

Isaac continued his slaughter of the necroponies. They were even more stupid than the ones Isaac fought before. Another necro jumped in front of Isaac's view.

"HEY!" screamed the overly excited, pink necro. "Do you like parties? I know I do, but I never got to ask you if you like them. Although could anyone really dislike a party? I mean, come on! Parties are so fun! I remember my first party-" The pony continued to rant about its love of parties causing Isaac to nearly go insane.

"STFU!" He yelled as he opened up with his weapon sending the pink, party necro to the floor.

"Awww. That wasn't nice!" replied the pink necro before it died.

"Shit! I need to reload!" Isaac brought his other hand and slammed it into tha bottom of the foam finger that was his WMD. He then pulled back the thumb of the finger and made a "Click" sound.

"Much better!" before Isaac could begin firing again another necro jumped into his view. What was with these things a jumping in front of him?

"Well howdy there!" replied the cowboy hat wearing necro. "I'm here to make us whole!"

"Fuck off!" was the only reply Isaac gave. "PEWPEWPEWPEWPEWPEW"

The cowpony necro bursted into thick slush of meat. The sight made Isaac hungry. "Wonder if horse meat tastes good?" he thought aloud.

This time two necros jumped in front of him. One was all white, excluding the blood that covered its body. The other was lavender. Both of them had horns on the top of there heads. The horns suddenly sprung out from the tops of their heads forming what resempled a slasher's arm.

"Nice trick!" Isaac commented, "But mine's better! BANG BANG BANG BANG!"

The legs of both of the ponies were blown from their bodies and they fell to the ground with a loud thump.

Isaac had done it! He killed them all!

"YAY!" Isaac cheered! "Now if only Ellie were here-" Isaac's train of thought was suddenly lost as a completly naked Ellie steped into his view.

"Hello Isaac," she said in a seductive tone, "Can you make US whole?"

The smile on Isaac's face grew to outrageous preportions. "Sure, baby!"

AND THEN THEY DID IT AT LEAST 14 TIMES!

THE END

Author's notes: Happy April Fools day! Man.... I took way to much time making this chapter and now I must go kill my self. Stay tuned for a REAL chapter soon! Thanks for reading this shit!

Chapter 3: The Escape?

Chapter 3: The Escape?

"Ugh...damn, does my head hurt." Isaac attempted to place his hand against his forehead, but he soon realised that his helmet was still on, blocking him access to his face. Suddenly, his memory can back to him and he sprung up, eyes darting around the room he found himself in. Isaac breathed a relieved sigh once he established that he was the only one in the room. "Well... at least there's no shy, yellow pony in here. Though the naked Ellie was a nice touch.” Isaac laughed. “Man that was a crazy dream. I wonder what caused me to have a dream like that?"

Isaac retracted his helmet to get a better view of the room he found himself in. The room was a bleak grey and couldn't have been larger than one of the apartments on the Sprawl. The ceiling of the room also appeared to be lower than normal. Isaac scanned the room. He noticed a bed, similar to the one he was sitting on, on the opposite side of the room. He also noticed a toilet and a sink at the back of the room; a lone mirror accompanied the sink. It didn't take him that long to figure out that he was in a some sort of cell. The large metal door that blocked exit from the room confirmed this thought. He also noticed that the room was extremely dark. So much so, that the corners of the room were almost invisible to the naked eye. The only light was coming from the small window above his bed. The cold night air was pouring into his cell.

"How the hell did I end up in here?" Isaac wondered, searching his memory for anything that could reveal the answer. There was only one thing that popped into his mind. "The only thing I remember is I was being surrounded by a bunch of..." Isaac paused. "ponies? No that can't be right. Come on Isaac! Keep it together!" he pounded his fists against the side of his head. "They couldn't have been ponies. They were talking! I must be going insane... well MORE insane." Isaac stopped his mental argument as he heard a door open and slam shut not too far away from the entrance to his cell. He quickly activated his helmet again. Metal surrounded his head and three strips of blue lights replaced the area where his eyes were. The lights shined brightly in the dimly lit room. Isaac reached at his side. To his surprise, his cutter was still there. Whoever had captured him either neglected to notice it or assumed it was a part of his suit. Isaac chose to believe the latter.

"How's the prisoner?" came a voice from the other side of the metal door that separated Isaac from freedom. The voice was low, but still very recognizable.

“It’s sleeping soundly, thanks to those potions we injected it with.” The second voice sounded very stern and reminded Isaac of a drill sergeant. Isaac knew these must be guards.

“Well that’s good. We don’t want him to try and escape when we take him to see the princesses and the Elements of Harmony. Maybe they can figure out what this thing is and more importantly, what to do with it.”

“We always have the moon. It’s been pretty vacant since Luna came back. I’m sure the creature would love it up there” Both of the guards laughed.

“What the hell are they talking about? It sounds like they want to send me to the moon? And what the hell are the Elements of Harmony?” Isaac scratched his head as he tried to decipher what he was hearing. He noticed that the voices were getting closer and he needed to come up with a plan. Isaac turned off his helmet lights and backed into the darkest corner of the room.

The door to his cell swung open and two guards walked in. Isaac was kinda relieved that they were the pony guards he remembered. At least it proved that he wasn’t completely insane.

“Where’s the creature?!” announced the smaller of the two guards as he discovered that the room seemed to be empty.

“I don’t know. We must alert the rest of the guards to this! The creature can not escape!”

Isaac figured now was a good time to spring his trap. “Hey guys” Isaac said.

Both of the guards froze at the voice. They slowly turned their heads behind them. They only saw darkness, but out of the darkness, came the voice again.

“Looking for someone?” with that, his helmet lights activated, shining rays of blue light at the two terrified guards. Isaac raised his hand and pointed it at the bed the two guards were standing in front of. Suddenly, the bed was floating into the air. The guards turned their attention to the floating object with their mouths agape. The bed was then rocketed at the them, smashing into them with great force. Both of the guards were knocked unconscious from the sudden impact. Isaac couldn’t help, but grin. “Man, I’m good!” he boasted before taking his leave out the cell door.

Isaac searched the hallway he now found himself in. There were numerous cells on each side of the dungeon. Everyone of them appeared to be empty. Excluding the one that now housed two guards. Isaac decided to close and lock the door to his ex-cell to ensure that its new occupants wouldn’t be leaving anytime soon. Isaac then set his attention to the end of the hallway. He noticed another door, much larger than the cell doors. He assumed this one must be the exit to this dungeon and he began to make his way towards it.

Isaac slowly opened that large door and peeked his head in to see if it was all clear. Thankfully, it was. He stepped out and noticed that there was a staircase directly in front of him. With no other ways in sight he began his assent. At the top of the staircase he found another door. He slowly opened this one as well whilst checking to make sure no one was on the other side. Once he established that the coast was clear he stepped out into a very large, open hallway. Several banners draped across the roof of the hallway. There were so many different colors that it gave Isaac the creeps.

Isaac now found himself stuck.

“Which way do I go now?” he thought aloud. He shot his head to the left and then to the right. To the right he noticed that the hallway ended and split off into two different directions. To the left the hallway went on for a long while before turning to the left. Not wanting to stand around much longer, Isaac made the decision to go to the left. As he began to walk he heard footsteps behind him. Isaac quickly ducked into a nearby room, which, lucky for him, was empty.

Isaac closed the door to the room and stacked against the wall nearest the door. He heard talking. Suddenly, two figures stopped just outside of the room Isaac was hiding in. Isaac could see their shadows under the door.

“Did you hear about what happened in Ponyville?” asked one of the voices.

“Yea. Some creature attacked the town and nearly killed a group of guards. I heard that the creature can fly and has the ability to freeze ponies with some sort of blue ray.”

“And that thing is going to meet the princesses? Who’s to say he won’t try and kill them and the Elements of Harmony?”

“If he tries anything, he’ll be put down instantly. We’ve got enough guards in this castle to ensure he won’t be able to harm anyone else. Also, the princesses could handle him themselves. I’m sure they know plenty of spells that could rip that thing apart limb from limb.”

“I guess your right. I wish I could use that kind of magic! That could prove handy if anyone tries to mess with me!”

“Agreed. Now then. Wanna go grab something to eat? Our shift ends now anyway.”

“Sure.” The two shadows then disappeared as the two guards began to walk away. Isaac waited until he stop hearing their hoofsteps then he stepped out into the hallway once more. Now that it was all clear, he once again made his way to the end of the hall. He turned down into the next hall and came to an abrupt stop. A group of patrolling guards were the only thing greeting him in the next hallway.

“It’s the creature! He’s escaped!” yelled one of the guards as it pointed its hoof, indicating Isaac’s position.

“Shit...” Isaac turned and began a mad dash in the opposite direction, the guards right on his tail. Isaac wasn’t sure where he was going, but that wasn’t his main priority at the time.

Isaac ran through a seeming endless number of hallways. He passed several other guards who joined in the chase. He needed a way to slow them down so he could get a bearing for where he’s going. He did a quick turn around and shot several blasts of stasis at the wall of guards, slowing almost all of them down. Several pegasi flew over the slowed guards and dived straight towards Isaac. Isaac ducked to dodge their attacks. He then used his kinesis to grab one of the pegasi freezing them in place.

“What sort of magic is this?” the pegasus guard questioned as it tried to break free.

“It’s called Kinesis. Let me show you how it works!” Isaac retorted. He then used the pegasus as a weapon and slammed it into the others. Soon all of the flying attackers had plummeted to the ground and the ones that had been running after Isaac were frozen. Isaac wasted no time. He activated his boots and shot off down the hallways. Isaac rocketed around corner after corner. This castle was turning into one big maze and Isaac was not too happy about being a lab rat.

Isaac came to a stop in a large open room. He noticed two very large doors at the end of the room.

“Those must lead to the outside!” he reassured himself. Isaac felt a sense of happiness fill his body. He was finally gonna be out of this colorful hell hole.

Isaac approached the doors. They were very heavy and difficult to push open. Isaac backed up from the door, got a running start, and slammed his body into the doors. The doors flew open. Isaac raised his head to get a better view.

“So, you’re the one who’s been playing around in my castle?” came a regal voice.

“You’ve gotta be kidding me...” was all Isaac could say to describe his situation. Before him stood more guards than Isaac could count, but they weren’t the ones that Isaac was worried about. It was the two large ones that stood in the middle. One was a bright white and had a rainbow colored mane that seemed to flow in a non-existent breeze. She (Isaac assumed it was a she based on its voice) was much larger than the guards that were with her. She was also just around the same height as Isaac. Standing next to her was a smaller, but equally as regal looking creature. This one was a dark purple and had a blue mane.

Isaac was just about to retreat through to door again, but a strange aura covered the door and slammed it shut. Isaac search around the room for any hope of escape. His eyes locked onto large chandelier that was just above his head. Isaac quickly unsheathed his cutter and shot at the chain that hung the chandelier.

CRASH

Isaac used the cover of the smashing chandelier to cover his escape through a nearby window. Neglecting to realize that he was on the second floor, Isaac came violently crashing to the ground below letting out a painful grunt.

“Well... that hurt” Isaac said as he stood up.

“Where’d he go?!” Twilight asked. She and the other Elements had been standing behind their princesses when Isaac had entered the room.

“He went out the window!” noted one of the nearby guards who was pointing to the shattered window in the corner of the room. “He’s getting away!”

“Not on my watch!” came the voice of a cyan colored pegasus who flew out the broken window after the escaping alien.

“Rainbow!” Twilight called after her friend. “Wait for the rest of us!”

Rainbow Dash ignored her friend’s plea and continued her chase after Isaac.

Isaac had been running when he heard a screaming from behind. He stopped and turned just in time to see a rainbow colored blur smash into his midsection, sending him to the ground. He looked up to see a cyan pegasus with a multi colored mane staring at him. She suddenly rose her front hooves up and tried to punch Isaac in the face. Isaac dodged her attacks as best he could, but the pegasus was determined to knock him out.

“Get off me!” Isaac demanded as he lifted his attacker up and threw her to the ground next to him.

“You’re pretty strong, but not enough to stop me!” Dash lunged at Isaac once more. Isaac raised his arm in an attempt to freeze his attacker mid-lunge, but a beeping sound indicating that his stasis was dry quickly killed that plan. Once again Isaac found himself on the ground dodging a barrage of punches.

“Enough of this!” Isaac grabbed onto his attacker, threw her into the air, and then used his kinesis to entrap her.

“Hey! Let me go!”

“That’s not gonna happen.” Isaac began pulling the trapped pegasus closer to him. He pulled his arm back, ready to lash out at his now helpless attacker, but he found that he couldn’t move his arm.

“What the-AHH!”

Isaac was lifted abruptly into the air and smashed back down on the ground. He tried to move, but all he could do was shudder under the massive weight he felt pushing him down.

The pegasus was now free from Isaac’s kinesis and was staring at the trapped creature in front of her.

“Heh!” she laughed “Not so tough now, are ya?”

“Rainbow! Are you ok?”

Isaac looked in the direction of the voice. He recognized the lavender pony that had taken his rifle earlier. Her horn was glowing once more and it was obvious that this time she was focusing its power on keeping Isaac down. She was being accompanied by several guards and the two princesses.

"Huh? Oh yea, I'm fine!" replied Rainbow.

“Good job, my faithful student! You’ve caught him!”

“Thank you princess.” Twilight responded with a smile.

“Take this creature to the interrogation room immediately! He’s got a lot to answer for!”

“Yes, your majesty!” responded several unicorn guards who replaced Twilight’s magic with their own to keep Isaac pinned. They then lifted him up into the air and began to take him back towards the castle.

This escaping thing isn’t really working out for me, Isaac thought as he was being levitated back into the place he had tried so hard to flee from. I hope Ellie is faring better than I am. Where is she anyway?
