Pony Alert 1

Chapter 1:Solar Empire 1: Celestia´s Offer

Location: Solar Empire, Helios City,Celestia´s palace.

The guards walked in perfect pace with each other. Walking on the cold marble floor as one. Their faces where as cold and plain as the marble itself. This really amazed Trixie. Such discipline and order was unlike anything she had ever witnessed before. But then again all of Helios City was an unique sight.

She had been here before when she was just a filly but that was before the great war when the city was still called Stalliongrad. Before Celestia. She remembered how this place had looked back then, a whole city made of dirty slums with people living in agony on the muddy streets.

She could see it before her like she was there right now. It was not strange actually with her amazing mind she could remember anything. She did also remember one huge palace in the middle of the city. That used to amuse her one pony in power above all else, living in luxury while others where suffering.

It´s really the same now except that Celestia rules instead of that old emperor. Celestia came to the people when they needed her the most. She and her elite guard, what where they called now.. Oh yes the Wonderbolts. They came in the middle of the war and overthrew the emperor with the aid of the people. They did it in the nick of time to because the crystal army where not far away from the capital. Just a day march away from the capital the crystal army gets orders to turn back, the Northcolt empire was no more and now a New Solar Empire existed in it´s place.

Trixie remembered that this place used to be in one heck of a blizzard, but that changed with Celestia. She melted the giant glaciers north of Helios City and had her Wonderbolts clear the sky. That was something that had changed all of Equestria. What once was a single continent where now separated by seas and lakes.

The other nations where not happy about it, it was after all their lands that got flooded. But Celestia did not care. By melting the ice she had found giant gold and gem mines. She also found a huge source of coal.

That would explain why the Solar Empire could become such a superpower in just a year. The people prospered and even though much had been flooded the other nations could see the good behind Celestia´s plan. Oh how wrong they could have been. Not long after, Celestia started to ignore all the other nations and annex neighboring countries. She had a majority of the citizens of these countries sent into military camps or factories and there they would become the foundations of her grand army. Then all of a sudden everything changed inside the Solar Empire. New laws that made you join the army or navy if you wanted any chance to make a living. All of the cities turned into giant war factories.

Except Helios City. Here all the elites of the military lived in luxury. Houses made of gold and gems reflecting the sunshine and everywhere you saw Celestia´s royal banner: a burning golden sun on a field of red. Where the old emperor´s palace had once been, stood now a castle she thought very much looked like the castle in Canterlot.

Trixie did really know everything about everypony. That made smile. She must look like an idiot smiling while being escorted to whatever fate awaited her. They would probably have her executed for spying on their secret files. It was not as if anypony else really new anything about The Solar Empire. They hid their secrets well, well enough for Luna´s best spies, but not well enough for Trixie. She was really great and powerful. Nopony could hide anything from her.

They walked past the stairs that led down to the lower levels of the castle.

"Huh, are you not taking Trixie to the dungeons?"

No reply. Of course what would she expect. After a whole train ride from Juggomaneia to here they ignored her great and powerful voice, so why would they listen now.

They came in front of two huge doors. They where made of gold decorated with red velvet inlaid with all sorts of gems. The gems formed Celestia under a raising sun. Her horn pointed in an direction as if she was raising the sun herself. Ha if Trixie couldn't raise the sun then why should an Alicorn be able to do it. They already have wings they shouldn't be able to have better magic than her too. She had always hated Alicorns, they always fought they where better than anypony else.

Two other unicorn guards stood by the two giant doors. Their horns glowed and the doors swung open.

"ENTER."The guard next to her said. Upon closer inspection these guards really had grand outfits. A long red coat with golden details. Under it were a black armor that somehow shone with fiery light. On the head was a red cap with a golden sun on. The unicorn´s horn came out in the center of the sun. Celestia was not stupid, all guards where unicorns, nopony handled a gun like a trained unicorn.

She had no desire to invoke anger on the guards so she entered without resistance.

Before her was a throne room, a really big throne room with glass windows on each side. She spotted colored glass on two of the windows. One of them represented Celestia and some Pegasi in front of a burning ruin surrounded by a crowd of cheering ponies, and the other showed Celestia shooting a beam of fire on a giant ice wall.

"Beautiful are they don't you think?"

"Huh?"Trixie saw beside her a very tall white Alicorn with a pink flowing mane, she had a crown and armor made of the shiniest gold inlaid with amethysts. This must be princess Celestia.

"These are the great historical events of the Solar Empire. I plan on every window being colored after i'm done with my plans."

She smiled a very warm smile and somehow when she spoke Trixie felt safe and warm. She did not like it one bit. "And what are your plans?" She asked right after.

"Don't you already know that great and spying Trixie?"

"Hehe i can explain.."

"I don't want your excuses I want YOU!"

O buck. Trixie really had done it this time. Celestia wanted her powerful brain for herself.

"Me?"

"Yes you my child. You look like i was going to eat you. Trust me you got nothing to fear. I am building a new world Trixie and i want you to be a part of it."

"You want Trixie?"

"Yes, for all your boasting you actually have a point. You are great and powerful. Your inventions may only be small and weak but I see great potential in them. With the right resources they can become the most destructive of weapons. Take your trivial Trixie Coil for example. It is only good for transform power but if you would increase the power output and then discharge it...

"It would fry anypony into ash."Trixie had thought of the idea herself but when she told the government back home they just gave her a warning that experiments like that would result in her lab shut down and she loosing her job. But now she had a chance to show everypony her full potential.

"Why would i wanna help somepony who just conquered my homeland and destroyed my government to take over rest of the world?"

"Haha Trixie don't lie to me, i can see in your eyes that you already going to say yes. But i'm very generous to my friends Trixie so if you where to accept i would give you free access to any kind of experiments you would want to perform and you would have unlimited budget. I will also give you the position as one of my closest advisers and generals."

"Generals?"

"Why yes of course you would gain your very own personal army, and when the world is ours you will rule a big part of it. All I ask in return is that you give me the weapons to conquer Equestria and your complete loyalty. I will even trow in a bonus giving you eternal life."

"ETERNAL LIFE!?"

"Yes isn't that what you always wanted, to be remembered forever? I will give you the opportunity to live forever."

"How?"

"It´s simple really all you have to do is a surgery and your dreams will come true."

"Wait! How do I know you wont kill me and steal my brain?"

"Oh Trixie if I wanted you dead you would've died long ago. You really don't have to worry it's a improvement to your little body. You will be the one and only to experience the exopony robot suit 10000. Some parts of your body will be replaced with robotics and then you will get super strength and eternal life.

"Will it effect my magic?"

"Yes but in a completely positive way. So what do you say I give you everything and you become my top researcher and general. All that will be your if you say yes. But if you decline my offer you will die here today, and nopony will ever remember your name."

"Count me in Princess"

"Then i think it´s time you took a visit to our lab."
