Stasis Containment Pod #02

Cyclone-09 Statis Containment Pod Platform

“SCP #02 has been detached from Platform A. Manual Controls activated, changing course for SCP #02. New course, Alpha Sector, Planet: Homo Sapius. Launching SCP #02. Launch Successful.”

The sound of a plasma blast rang out across the desolate, sterile platform as hooves and claws pounded across the metallic floor. A single pony ran stopping occasionally to turn around and fire his plasma rifle.

He in turn received fire back from security teams belonging to the ship, or a Cyclone classed ship, he was in. He passed several consoles, the same ones he had used just minutes ago. He slided down on his side just as a hail of plasma flew over head.

The security team quickened their pace as they splitted off into three teams. The stallion made a left turn towards the side of the ship. There, a glass view covered one side of the hallway where anyone could see outer space and all her glory.. Other ships were also stationed near the Cyclone.

When the runner looked back, he only saw one team which made him panic. He looked everywhere for the other two teams whilst dodging a plasma burst near his rear.

A black shadow flew overhead and tackled the runner, the runner, out of breath gave up easily as he was pinned down. His front and rear legs were cuffed while he layed on his back. He looked up to see the other two teams, they had ambushed him while he ran away from the other team.

A smirking unicorn walked up to the tied up pony, she looked down on his face before kicking him in the stomach. He grunted in pain as he laid on the metallic floor.

“Dispose of him, I want to know where SCP #02 went and who is in it this instant.”

“Yes ma'am,” said the security team as a large figure walked towards the stallion. The figure slowly picked up the stallion by his neck.

“Avalis are known for them being able to drink ammonia, its like water to you ponies. Our bodies are also composed of ammonia, so we use that to our advantage.” the figure spoke to the pony in his claws.

The stallion’s neck started to freeze with frost starting to cover it. He started to choke as frost started to freeze his airway causing him to stop breathing. The avali simply threw down the soon-to-be dead stallion on the floor.

“Dude you should’ve seen the way that guy hit Mark, it was like pow and he was out like a light.” I laughed as I drank my beer. I sat at a table for four, only three seats were taken.

“Well how was I suppose to know she already had a guy, she was flirting with me then her boyfriend comes out of nowhere.” Mark, a mechanic, or a scientist he called himself. He worked at Aperture Science or something. ONe time he tried to convince me to buy a Aperture turret,

He was a decent sized fellow with blond hair. Most of the time he wore a white shirt and black jeans. Sometimes when he is serious or talking scientifically, the annoying would be like off the charts. Then there was Connor.

“Hey guys, I propose that we should go out hunting or fishing. We could make a barbecue or something because I’m craving for some fresh meat,” Interjected Connor. He was a ginger, what else is better than having a ginger as a pal or buddy? He wore black overalls but when we go out into town, he wears a suit and turns up the swagger.

He owns a ten by ten acre of woodland full of animals where lives in a house we were residing in. I felt bad for him because Mark and I only came by about two or three times a month so he lives most of his life alone in the woods.

“Yeah a hunt, but if we’re going hunting, then I gotta get my rifle cleaned, haven’t used it for ages” I said, finishing the last of my beer, I tossed it into the trashcan where it clinked with all the other empty bottles. “Wait, I gotta use the restroom.”

I got off the leather couch and made my way outside. Connor’s house didn’t have a toilet because it was built a long time ago. He made a shed out in the back for when nature called. I caught a glimmer of light in my field of vision. This was when I saw a shooting star.

Smiling, I said, “I wish for something big to happen in my life.” My life was boringcbeing just a  I sighed and opened the shed’s door. I did what I had to do and zipped up my pants. I walked back to the house before looking up again.

I noticed something particular about the shooting star I had saw earlier, it was bigger, and maybe some flames were tailing it too? That’s when I realized, it was a meteorite or something falling down to the earth. I quickly ran to the house barging into the door like a psychopath.

“Guys come look, I thinks its a meteorite!” Mark spitted out his beer and quickly ran out pushing me aside. Connor, the ever paranoid guy he is loaded his pistol and rifle before dashing out.

I had ran out before Connor did and saw the meteorite flying towards us. Turning around I saw it heading for the parking lot. Connor owned about ten acres of woodland area and the meteorite had to crash near the parking lot.

I raced as fast as I can jumping over a yellow pole. I threw myself on my car’s door and opened it. I maneuvered the car out of the meteorites way as panic filled me. I threw myself out of the door as the meteorite touched the ground and I was blown away from the blast.

I huddled behind my car as the meteorite came to a halt about one fourth of a mile away from me. A streak of fire followed the meteorite as I came out from behind my car and saw the destruction of several trees and a gouge in the parking lot.

The guys came out of the woods as they too saw the devastation that the meteorite left behind.

“Jesus Christ man!” yelled Connor as he used the butt of his rifle to stamp out the fire that had appeared.

Mark walked towards the crashed meteorite while I examined the damage down to my car. The left side, which had been facing the meteorite, was fucked up with scratches everywhere.

“Damn, this is gonna cost me.”

“Guys come look at this!” I averted my attention to mark who was walking towards the meteorite. Connor, while I was examining my car, retrieved a fire extinguisher. Me and I put out flames on our way to Mark who was on his knees.

But when I neared the meteorite, I saw instead a white capsule-like object with a being inside. The exterior of the capsule was just white but when I concentrated inside of the pod, I could see the being more clearly.

“Emergency protocol activated. Opening Statis Containment Pod.”

We all backed away as the glass opened sideways, an appendage reached out and grabbed the side of the capsule, it’s other appendage following too. The being pulled itself up, half of it’s body still inside the pod.

It was the strangest thing we had ever saw, quickly summarizing as an alien. I raised my hand in a motion of good will but before I fully extended my arm, the creature pulled out a black bag from its pod, opened it, and brought out a white gun, like a plasma rifle from X-COM, a game I had played.

“Identify your species, rank, and coordinates of this planet immediately.” it said.
