Equestria's Prototype

A boy by the name of Griphyx, who is around 5 feet tall, as he is a very early bloomer. He wears black jeans, black and green sneakers, a blue shirt. He has an oversized purple, silver, gold and brown hoodie. He is currently ten years old, sits with his strange medallion of a dragon attached by a mixture of bright silver and matt black chain. He has an IPod with headphones in his ears as he listens to some of the modern day music. He currently bobs his head to "Indestructible".

He sits in a train station waiting for the train to arrive. It is completely empty until a man wearing a black leather jacket over what looks to be a red shirt. His pants are blue jeans and he has strange colored sneakers, runs in and bumps into the boy. The two fall over and the man is followed by strange black soldiers with these blue eye pieces.

They look military and hold up assault rifles and aim them at the man and Griphyx. Griphyx gets a strange feeling as he starts to back way, the man looks down at him and places a comforting hand onto his shoulder. Griphyx looks up and see's the man has a confident smirk on his face.

He holds the medallion tightly in his grasp. The man gets to his feet and the men pull out guns and set fire. Griphyx moves before the man and takes many bullets. He and the man fall to the ground as a vile smashes and this red and black powder goes into their bodies. The boy see's nothing but black. But he hears the cutting of flesh, screams of anger and pain, and more importantly.

The man.

"Hang in there kid...we'll...ugh...." He says before the sound of a body hitting linoleum is heard and echoed. His hearing starts to fade, until he hears the roar of a dragon, the boom of thunder and the crackling of lightning. In his mind he see's the dragon from the medallion floating there, except it isn't made of metal, not all of it, but also made of flesh and energy.

Then, everything goes black.

NEW YOUR MORGUE: Time; 12:43 a.m.

There are two men in hazmat suites that stand over Griphyx and the man.

"So who are they?" The first says, we'll call him 'Guy #1'.

"Alex Mercer. Used to be a scientist of orts, worked with BLACK WATCH or something." Guy #2 says to the first. Guy #1 nods his head and looks down at the two.

"And the boy?" He asks.

"Griphyx." Guy #2 answers.

"Just Griphyx? No last or middle name? No kin?" Guy #1 asks. The second man shakes his head.

"No, just that. Curious though, that medallion is a relic, might even be worth some heavy coin." Guy #2 states.

"Yeah, yeah, just looks stupid to me. Now, lets start with the boy." Guy #1 states as he picks up a bone saw. He moves next to Griphyx's side and goes to cut him open, but when he slips and blade dings against the medallion, all hell breaks loose. Griphyx and Alex both open their eyes and the two doctors freak out. They rush out the door.

"Uh oh..." Alex states. Griphyx looks over at him.

"What do you mean, 'Uh oh...'?" Griphyx asks.

"We are currently in the morgue...got any family kid?" Alex asks. Griphyx sighs and shakes his head.

"No...I'm an orphan, never really knew anything about them, except this weird medallion." Griphyx states as he touches the dragon's head, the image of the living version rushes through his mind for a split second, and he grabs his head in pain. "Arrghhh!!" Griphyx groans through grit teeth.

"What's wrong, kid?" Alex asks out of curiosity.

"Just...just a headache...I'm fine." Griphyx states. Alex nods his head.

"Come on, lets get going." He states before jumping out of the window. Griphyx follows and lands next to Alex in an alleyway. "This isn't good..." Alex says softly as a soldier rounds the corner.

"Hey! What are you doing down he- AAHH!!!" The soldier cries out as Alex consumes the soldier. He blinks, before another soldier runs down the alley, right into Griphyx's hand as it impales into his chest and is consumed. Alex smirks at the boy and pats his head. "Stick with me kid, and we'll figure out what has happened." He tells Griphyx, who smiles up at Alex.

"Does this make you my adoptive father now?" He asks. Alex smirks.

"Sure, why not." He states before the two take off running down the street as helicopters reign bullets down at them. Alex grabs a nearby taxi and blocks a missile, while Griphyx throws a soldier into a group of them and a car at a tank. The two keep running as more tanks and helicopters fire upon the now father and son. They slams their fist/hand into the concrete street and then the missile's slam into them, making a large explosion as they actually collide into each other.

TWO YEARS LATER: Area; Harbor. Time; 3:43 a.m.

"Hey old man." A boy states as his raises an armored hand grabbing a missile before throwing it back at the soldiers. "When the hell are you going to get rid of that nuke?" He says as a tail forms and he spins in circle cutting super soldiers in half before wings form and block a hunter's claws.

"How many times have I told you not to call me 'Old man', 'kid'." A man says over the radio. The boy and man are none other then Alex Mercer(AKA Zeus) and Griphyx(AKA Ryuujin).

"Never call me that again, alright dad?" Griphyx chuckles out. He jumps into the air ad flaps his wings sending steel needles into the soldiers and infected in front of him.

"Right. Now then, I am at the hanger currently fighting a big boss, wanna help?" Alex says to the kid. Griphyx smirks.

"Fuck yeah." He states before flying into the air and lands onto the hanger. He watches as Alex flips over the massive hunter and claws at it, only for armor to appear.

"Damn it!!" Alex growls loudly. Griphyx runs on all fours, his tail returns as his feet become talons, his right hand is turned into a sickle as his left is a claw. He jumps and kicks the large hunter away from Alex and onto it's face. Griphyx's tail coils around the hunter's left ankle and is flung into the air slammed onto it's back. Alex smirks.

"Lucky son of a bitch..." He states. Griphyx laughs.

"I'm your son, so are you the bitch?" Griphyx teases. Alex chuckles.

"Yeah, yeah...Now enough goofing off, we NEED to take care of this, otherwise Manhattan is going to be nothing but a crater." Alex says seriously.

"Alright, you take the chopper, I'll take this mofo!!" Griphyx exclaims with a grin. Alex nods his head.

"Good kid. See you on the island!" Alex says as he runs off and takes the helicopter with the nuke.

"Good luck..." Griphyx mutters before being kicked into the wall of the watch tower. "Oh fuck that's right...I forgot..." He coughs out. He gets to his feet and runs at the large hunter. He jumps up above the hunters reach and extends his sickle hand, which straitens and jets out. Griphyx smiles as his whipfist imbeds itself into the monsters right eye. He lands behind it d pulls his arm back, splitting it's head in two. He rushes and bites into the monsters neck and consumes it into nothingness.

He straightens himself before soldiers run up and start shooting at him. He smirks and drops low to the ground as his tail whips about, cutting them to bits. Griphyx shoulder rolls as he dodges a punch from the super soldier, who is unlucky enough to be consumed by Grihyx's claws, but h gains some new information.

He watches the memories of the soldier and see's that there is a portal being made to help BLACK WATCH gain more ground for their experiments. He growls, until there is a massive explosion and large radiant flash of light. He looks up and see's that the helicopter didn't make it back, and he roars.

He jumps off of the ship with such force that it breaks in two and implodes on itself. He flies around for a few hours and see's a puddle sucking in a crow. He smiles and lands next to the now reforming Alex Mercer. After Alex becomes hole again, Griphyx hugs him tightly and the two share a brief moment of a father and son bonding moment.

FOUR YEARS LATER: Location; Atop of a building. Time: 11:54 p.m.

Griphyx slams Heller into the building, making him cough in pain. He holds Heller up by his throat.

"Why did you have to fight against us...we wanted to help you..." He say sadly. Heller spits blood onto his cheek.

"fu...Fuck you!" He roars as he goes to stab his hand into Griphyx's chest with his blade arm, only for it to fly off of his form in a spray of blood. "Damn it!" He roars. Griphyx tosses Heller a few feet away and watches him bounce a few times.

"I'm sorry...James. I came here to try and stop you from wanting to kill my father..." He states. Heller spits once more.

"Fuck you! He has Maya!!" He roars. Griphyx sighs and shakes his head softly.

"She is free and safe. Not being used for any mothership that father spewed to you. He only wanted you to get stronger, prove that you were worth it." He tells James. Heller blinks.

"What the FUCK do you MEAN!?!?" He roars as his arm regenirates. Griphyx sighs as he takes out cell phone and dials a number.

"Hey pops. Mind if I talk with Maya? Yeah...it came to that..." Griphyx states. Heller stares. Griphyx gains a smile. "Sweet! Okay, bring her the phone please. Hey, Maya? Hey! Yeah, I'm fine. W-What!? NO! Why would I like...but that's not what I mean when I say...never mind. Wanna talk to your dad? Okay sure." He hands the phone to James. "She wants to talk to you." He says with a smile. James takes the phone.

"Baby...?" He asks.

"Hey daddy!"

"Baby, are you okay!?" He exclaims.

"Um, yes! Mr. Alex is here and he gave me some cookies, said that Griphyx made them." She says.

"Did they do anything to you, or the cookies?" He asks. He hears a giggle.

"No! They came by and saved me, hey tried to save mommy but..." She goes quiet.

"I know baby...I know...Are you safe?" He asks.

"Of course! Mr. Alex is SUPER nice! When your not one of those...um...what were they called?" She asks.

"They were called Brutes- AH CRAP!! NOT THE MILK!!" He hears Alex exclaim loudly and a glass break.

"Oh my gosh! Are you okay!?" She asks.

"Yeah...just some milk." He hears Alex reply.

"See daddy? Everything is fine!" She tells him.

"Okay, Maya. I'll see you soon, alright?" He says over the phone.

"Yep!" Maya says before she hangs up. Heller looks at Griphyx, who is currently scratching his neck slightly.

"Oh! Your done. Did she say anything?" He asks.

"Only that she is safe...Is it true that you and Mercer tried to save my wife?" He asks. Griphyx sighs and nods his head.

"Yeah...I tried to make her like us, but...but she just didn't work with it, no matter how many times I tried" He explains.

"Fine...I'll join you guys." He states.

"Wonderful!" Griphyx exclaims and walks over to the side of the building. "Lets go, come on! We don't have all day!" He yells.

"What do you mean?" Heller asks.

"I have to carry you, because only I can fly." He explains as his wings form. "See? Now come on!!" He yells. Heller nods his head and grabs Griphyx's hand and the two fly off towards a large infected building.

TWO YEARS LATER: Area; Mercer Base. Time; 1:00 a.m.

Griphyx sits in a long chair along a long table that holds nine more people at it. James Heller sits across from him. A woman next to him that is now known as his second wife and helper in combat. Her name is Jessica. Next to her however is a scientist that goes by Roland. He is a scruffy old man with grey eyes that are cold and merciless. Next to Griphyx is two males. Both are Chinese and for some reason decided to join the group.

Across from them is two Mexican women. Very well built, they must have been models. They giggle at him and he rolls his eyes. Next to the two men and women is one male on each side. They are generic Americans. Alex walks in and sits at the had of the table. He smiles at them.

"Good to see all of you are here." He states. Griphyx chuckles.

"How could we not when you made he message clear you wanted us here?" He says with a sly smirk. Alex's eyebrow twitches before he coughs into a fist.

"Anyways. The reason I called you here is because I have found out that BLACK WATCH has made a new base beneath the Statue of Liberty. I want you all to go there and cover Griphyx, as there is apparently someone inside. We may need to help him or her." He states. The others nod their heads as Griphyx gets to his feet.

"Alright, you heard him! Let's go!!" He orders as he leads the group towards the statue. Below them are packs of super infected. They arrive at the statue and move aside as Heller makes an entrance into the base. Griphyx rushes in after the others start fighting against BLACK WATCH and he runs down the hall. He turns and comes across two large gun-grey-steel-doors that look to be dented.

He approaches them before ripping them off their hinges. There, he see's a strange woman. She has D-cup breasts, a skinny waist and a large butt, perfect to his liking. The strange part is that she has hooves, black fur, a tail made out of stars, along with her mane. Her eyes are cyan and slit as she has a horn coming from her forehead and wings on her back. He notes that she is cut up and bleeding, and is glaring at him.

He see's a ring around the base of her horn. He approaches her slowly.

"Are you okay, miss?" He asks.

"Buck you!!" She hisses back.

'So much for her being skiddish...I like this one!' He thinks to himself.

"My name is Griphyx Mercer. I'm here to free you." He states.

"Yeah right, what do you take me for a foal?" She asks.

"No, I take you for a sexy woman that I would gladly take on a date." He says truthfully. She blushes.

"I...ugh, fine." She mumbles out in annoyance. Griphyx breaks her chains and picks her up bridal style and runs out of the base. He reaches the statue's limits and looks down at her.

"What's you name, babe?" He asks.

"It is NOT babe, and my name is, Nightmare Moon."
