The group of ponies with Princess Celestia reached her sister, only to find her snoring in her chambers, exhausted from her night shift.

“Sis, wake up! This is serious!” Celestia yelled, her cool persona lost in the panic, much to her protege’s bewilderment.

“What is it? Is it Discord again?” Luna mumbled, still dazed.

”Worse.”

“Sombra?”

”Worse.”

“Tirek!?”

“...Worse. It’s Molly.”

“...Buck.”

“Who’s Molly? You never mentioned anyone in that name.” Twilight asked, perplexed by this new threat.

“We call her Molly, but...” Celestia began to explain, rubbing the back of her neck in discomfort.

“...but she is actually Celestia, or at least the crazy part.” Discord interrupted the scene and sentence, only to sit on the princesses back.

“Get off me, Discord!” she commanded, and the trickster obliged.

“What are you even talking about, Discord?” Applejack asked in her usual stoic demeanor.

“Oh, it’s a fun little story. But I think it would be best if you told it, isn't it, my old girlfriend?” Discord replied, floating above Celestia, a wide grin spread across his face.

Twilight gasped in awe, but Applejack and Pinkie only stood there, with Pinkie grinning and putting her hand in front of Applejack. She groaned and placed a 20 bits bill in Pinkies hand.

“This is the last time I bet with you when it comes to princesses, Pinkie.” Applejack mumbled.

“Another satisfied costumer.” Pinkie smiled and placed her winnings in her own pocket.

“I was young, similar to your age, actually. Mother was against me dating him, but what can I say, a young mare loves a bad boy.” she grinned and blushed, as the others listened intently, apart from Discord who was just enjoying seeing his former girlfriend ruffled up after all these years.

“We would meet in silence, most of the time in the royal gardens. He was funny, smart and just enough of a pain in the ass for me to love him. Our little secret was alive and well for about half a year, but then mom got wind of it. Looking back, I am amazed we manged to keep quiet for that long. Anyway, what matters to all of you is what happened that night when me and mom got into the fight.” Celestia began to explain, her voice rather nostalgic.

“It was your typical teenage brat and overbearing mother, but with the added bonus of divine power.” Discord interjected, as he loves to do.

Celestia gave Discord a look of anger, but still blushed. He was right, under that pile of teasing and simplification, as he usually was.

“We shouted, we threw furniture. Poor Luna tried to prevent us from going overboard, but I was completely livid. In pure adrenalin and hormone induced rage, I fired a beam of pure power at my mother. She was shocked as much as me, and could only block this vile magic back into the room. For a few dreadful seconds, this beam bounced around us. Then, our teacher, Past Tense, entered the room, probably from hearing the commotion, and living next to my room during the work week. It hit her dead on.

I considered myself a murderer at that point. She laid motionless there as our heats began to sank. She was an old mare anyway, so that amount of magic would have killed her instantly. But then, she began to levitate. Her gray mane gained a red shine, her body began to seem young again, and her eyes burned like the rage I just felt. Even her elderly clothes morphed into what seemed was stockings and heels, a big golden H sitting proudly on her bra. From the ashes of this wonderful teacher rose a being vile and dominating. We rushed to her side, only to be cropped into sitting.

She introduced herself as Mistress Homework. We tried to break free, but her magic was to quick and to powerful for us. We were her “students” for 10 months, indulging ourselves in sexual activities that are so taboo, I don’t like to discuss them with you right now, after all these years. Equestria became a large school, with every resident becoming Homework’s student, with rank, type and power. It was a sexual harem that almost ruined our kin forever. That’s why I lost interest in Discord, since he simply bailed on me and enjoyed his fair share of Homework’s work.”

“What can I say, I admired her work, very intensely.” Discord said coyly, making the girls do their best hurl face.

“Only after we understood that only one of us with her kind of magic can stop her, did we break her rule.” Celestia continued unfazed.

“I volunteered, and during one night’s curfew, they cast this beam at me. Never before or since did I feel such pain and pleasure as the vile anger my sister managed to produce hit my soul. My own dark wishes began to cloud my judgment, not to mention my love for feline creatures made me into Nightmare Moon.

I still hunger for that feeling, but now I know that looking like her once a year is better than being her and losing all I love. I broke off my shackles with ease and challenged Homework to a test of wickedness, with Celestia being the subject. I’d rather not speak what I did to her to win, but what matters is that I won.

As per the duel rules, the dark magic left Past Tense, and she lived her days with us as our teacher. We couldn’t destroy it, since it was too strong to do so, and we could only hide it, in a book in the Dark Room. We made it our duty to erase all records of Homework, so nobody became foolish and take the magic in them. We tried to take the magic out of me, but a small sliver remained, the sliver you girls faced some years back. Centuries went by, and the book was lost, until it somehow appeared in your new home. I guess it was just time for it to resurface.” Luna finished the story, very emotional during her explanation.

“So, from what I can gather, the only way to save Dash and whoever they got else is by attacking her with similar power.” Applejack summarized her own view of it all.

”Well, no use in waiting then. Princess Celestia, I volunteer.” Twilight moved a step and bowed ceremonially, trying her best to hide her fear.

Discord poofed a big bag of popcorn into his and Pinkie’s hands, and the two began to munch on them as color left Celestia, her eyes red as the beam that rose from her horn. In a flash, it hit Twilight dead on.

Twilight’s horn and wings dissolved instantly. She levitated as her hair began to seem like it was pure lightning. Her clothes morphed into a white catsuit, with matching boots and gloves.

Her mind was in turmoil, as ideas such as friendship and love were subdued deep inside a magical prison. She cried out in pleasure and pain as one of her deepest desires began to wash over her whole personality. Perfection, to be perfect, to have no flaws, to be... Her. She was perfect after all! And soon the others would be too. A single tear flew down her cheek as Twilight Sparkle was trapped, and a beautiful monster was let loose on Equestria.

A large logo with “01” on the front was sitting proudly on her breasts. This new being smiled and created a white throne, only to sit on it proudly, her legs crossed.

“Good day, my lovely drones. I am Perfection, but you can call me One.” the evil and dominating part of Twilight introduced herself, much to Discord’s delight.

“Miss One, your rule is being questioned in Ponyville, by Mistress Butterfly. Your people are looking for guidance!” Luna explained, much to to Applejack’s and Pinkie’s bewilderment.

“Miss One? It’s just Twilight with a makeover! Come on, sugarcube, we need to stop this insanity...” Applejack said and grabbed Perfection, only to realize she can’t move her a bit.

“Applejack, Applejack. You can’t simply go like that, with that imperfect personality. No, I need an army with soldiers who have what it takes.” Perfection teased, and pushed Applejack in a kiss.

The orange mare tried to pull away, but she was no match for this new menace that Celestia and Luna unleashed. Soon enough, metallic skin began to replace Applejack’s. Her eyes were glazed over by a green shine, becoming optical sensors. Joints gained servos, and her mind was becoming one large computer. The rest of the group was in shock as the changes increased in speed. Her mane and tail were now just holographic projections that could be turned off if needed, and her legs gained a pair of thrusters, giving her the ability to fly. Only after every inch of her was a robot, both inside and out, did Perfection break the kiss.

As a big “02” began to appear on her new metallic exoskeleton, the robot spoke.

“Unit 02 ready and operational, Miss One. “Applejack” personality archived and subdued.” she said in a monotone voice.

“That is my fetish.” Pinkie Pie whispered to the stunned Luna.

“Me next, me next!” she jumped towards Perfection, who couldn’t hide her joy.

“Such eagerness! Very well!” Perfection exclaimed and began to kiss Pinkie Pie.

As the pink mare was entering the existence of a ponybot, Luna and Celestia whispered their plan. The changes were even quicker, as there was no resistance. Pinkie Pie was in heaven, much to the bewilderment of all.

“Unit 03 ready chief! “Pinkie Pie” personality was not possible to contain, so merging was processed. Yay!” the pink ponybot jumped in the air and did a twirl with her jets.

“Now then, Miss Luna and Celestia, care to join us?” Perfection teased as she moved in on the princesses.

“Of course, Miss One! But first, we ask you to subdue that imperfect villain Mistress Butterfly!” Luna begged, hoping her bluff would work.

“... Very well. She is in Ponyville I presume?”

“Correct, as always.” Celestia replied, eager to get on One’s good side.

Perfection sat on her throne again and two ropes attached to it began to levitate and snap at the ponybots hinge at the back of their necks.

“Units, engage! Destination, Ponyville!” Perfection commanded, and the ponybots quickly jetted her towards her destination of choice.

The three deities stood there for a couple of moments and then exhaled.

“I just hope your plan works, Luna. Otherwise we are either going to be a robot state, or a land of slaves.” Celestia remarked, as they hurried towards Everfree Forest.

“You make it sound like a bad thing!” Discord replied as he followed the two mares, eager to see how they plan to get out of this whole mess.

Author's Note

For those who wonder why Luna and Cel are so willing to do this to Twi and her friends, they do not have any more options but buying time. Next time, see what MB did to Ponyville as the two powers make bases in Ponyville and Canterlot respectively.
