Mainly her and the one called Shimer.I keep my distance to collect my data and see what happens. for the first 3 and a half hours it was normal but when another spike hit I knew something was going to happen. Recent readings indicated a large mass of P.K.E. and M.A.E. energy was building up near the school and spreading. Realizing that something was coming I prepared my equipment, charged everything to the max and prepped my power suit. (The power suit is what i use for combat,traveling, and other needs. It resembles a mix of a hement that looks like primes, a full armour suit with a large pack on my back with wings to fly, a over screen on my left arm for me to use the watch and other functions. A slender bar is mounted on my for-arms for two blades that slid out. and to top it all off with a center chest plate that has a orib-like object linked to my matrix.) It was about the end of the day at 4:30 and I was slowly walking behind the 6 of them down the street with a proton pistol at the ready incase of any danger. When they walked through a door to what like to be a wardrobe shop for dresses. I though at first that am I getting over dramatic about this? I enter the door with cloak and collider on but something was wrong. The no-collider started to malfunction when i accidentally hit a rack of cloths making them tip over and hit the ground. I saw what i did and quickly found a spot no one was near as all the girls went to it. I was standing in front of a large mirror when one of them came up to. I froze when she was 3 inches away.I held my breath as I slowly moved out of the way only to be tripped by the ones dog and landed in a pile of cloths. inadvertently deactivieding my cloaker. I slowly came to only to be tied to a chair with a scarf and hair bands. I looked up to see all of them around me looking at me with confusion and the other with hint of anger. I tried to reach for the pistol but it wasn't there only to be sitting on a table beside them. I looked back at them as on asked who I was and what (the heck) I was doing in a loud voice. Another came up to and told me her name "My name is Twilight and these are my friends" I sat there listening to them as they told me their names. After that they ask what was my name. I told them, breaking the one rule about contact. "My name is Ben." "What's the S for?" asked the one with a cowboy hat. "My last name, but i'm not telling that." They looked at each other then back at me. "Soo now that now I know your names and you know mine you going to let me out of this? I don't want to get blood clots in my hands." They slowly removed the restraints and I was able to stretch again. They look at me when I went back to get my equipment untill one of them with a rainbow colored hair stopped me "And what do you think your doing..." she said. "Move I need to get the scanners back online before I miss any more surges." "Surges?" they asked in confusion. I sighed at the point that I had to explain all about this. I told them about where I was from , who I was and what I do. Telling them about the dimensions and some things about others. They set back and listened to me. And as usual theres that one person that doesn't believe it. Soo I point at my equipment on the table as proof. But what was the most surprising this was when the dog talked. "So your like a space traveler?" I froze with my mouth wide open at this remark was everyone else was. I contained to tell them on that the surge was. "Well it is a bit hard to explain at my current point but the surges I've been tracking for nearly the past two days. Their made of a kinetic energy that this meter can detect and analyze it in a scale of strength ( a.k.a. the alfabetet with a number) these readings that I've been getting have been hit 3H-3J which is very high for any place. When I first arrivived a came through a portal from the statue outside the school with the same energy. And after about 5 to 10 minutes I saw you come through with having an even stronger level and as well as a item in the school it was...a... crown I think. And I assume that it belongs to you..." "How did you know?" "Lucky guess." "But theres something else here with a extremely high P.K.E. levels around the areas. I've been preparing for anything to happen. That black thing you see is a Particle thrower. It's small and easy to use but still packs a good punch." "Well then is there anything we can do to help? " "Yes, but in time for now I need you guys or gales to continue what your doing." "And about you? " I have my own preparations to make but I guaranty you all that you'll some thing like no other... It was night time the girls were at the school doing what ever they were doing when I was outside doing my own thing. I was setting up pke disruptors around the courtyard and preparing for what was going to happen. About halfen hour past when I heard two boys run out the door with the one girl holding a sledgehammer to the statue as the 6 came running out. I know that something was happening but nothing prepared me for this. When to girl put on the crown a large ball of light formed around her. The Mae and pke were going insane indecating that this was it. After a brief explosion the light revealed that the girl had turned into a demolish like dragon. I was in shock what I just at a split second a beam of light shot out of her horn at the group. Them quickly huddled to their for protection only to stand up in a large energy bubble that I shot from my thrower and slowly walked to them help them up. She look at me for a second and said. "WHAT?! WHO ARE YOU!?" I looked up at her with blank face and a angered look. "Well I guess your the one who's being causing all the trouble around here then and trying to hurt my friends was a big mistake." "HA, AND DO YOU THINK YOU ARE AGENST ME!" "LETS FIND OUT!" I drew my watch up and dialed it in with its glow over my face as i smirked a smile and slammed it down. As a large flash of light emitted from me as my power/flight suit was activated. They watched in shock as I was transformed in my secondary armour. "HA,HA,HA YOU THINK A LITTLE METAL CAN HELP YOU! NOW DIE!" In a split second I reached behind me grabbing the proton gun and shot the energy beam into pieces. As I quickly vented the pack after the discharge and shot another stream at her, causing her to shout in the pain of the particle. I seast fire to vent again only to be dodging her shots.I then notice that her power was coming from the crown. I rammed a boson dart send her to fly over the building. Turning to the girls for a new plan. "Guys I think I know how to stop her." "Same with us." "We need to get the crown/Crown." Suddenly she reappear looking even more pissed. I began to shot another beam at her to get her attention as the others distracted her. Promoting the right time for Twilight to jump up and get the crown after that she was defenceless or we thought. Now knowing that it was pure pke energy I dialed the watch again but for something more useful. I lite up again only for this time I was completely covered in my armour and activated the pack as I flew off at her in full speed with a huge crash. Taking blow after blow to each other I was able to get one right in her stomach sending her flying away. As I slowly fly back to the ground in front of the girls smiling that I had just won. But before anyone could say anything I felt a huge object hit and grab me by my wings pulling me in the clouds only to see that she was ripping off them. One of them broke as I sent a smoke bomb at her after which sent me flying out of control to the ground. Just before hitting hit I felt something engulf me as I as inches from grass,, Spun around back on my feet. I saw that the one of them had projected a bubble around me. **looks at her and smiles** As a large crash hit the ground beside us. There she was in a 15 foot deep crater sitting up more furious then ever. "YOU THINK YOU CAN DEFEAT ME!" "No, but lets see try to fight your way out of this little trap. " I held a G-Trap at her, opened it and made the energy flow into it as it closed. There was left was her back in her human form crying her eyes out in sorrow. I reached down to up her up in a amazement to everyone. As Twilight walk over I told her. "I somethings to do here, think you can handle this?" 15 minutes later... After the battle the girls went inside to enjoy the party and I stayed out side doing some clean and filling the crater. It was nice and quite, after the party the girls came out to see me be placing strange boxes around the statue's mirror . "What are those?" "Plasma Slime S4 packs, when activated them can subdue any energy that it holds that way the portal can't open to here." "So what your saying is that it will close the portal for good?" "Yep, and before I do detonate it I see that someone needs to go back through... Twilight." "Yeah. She's her good bye's and thanks everyone even giving me a little thank you." After she walked through the portal I armed the packs only for nothing to happen. I set the safety on to check the wires. How come when ever something is perfect there's always a problem it try's to make. As I fixed the wire and turned the safety off to rearm the packs but before I turned around I felt something grab my arm and pull me into the portal inadvertently setting off them as I get sent flying down another portal. After traveling through another portal I thought to my self on how could ever be able to get back home. The place I was did have a link to Griffin Rock which would mean it could be logged but if I'm sent to a place farther away then the chance of getting a ground bridge is now impossible. I came to only to be sent flying straight at a walk knocking me out. I came to realizing that even what I've been through I was alive but in a little pain. I throw off the pack to check for damage. It was pretty bet-up with wires and some holes. I unplugged some of the wires so that i still have primary functions. As I tossed the pack back on I check where I was. In a large room with a decor like a throne room in a castle. I pulled the m.a.e. meter to check the energy level that was nearly hitting 3P. "Strange I never had readings like these before." Before I could react I heard a voice behind me. I slowly turned and lost a heart beat at what I saw and thought to my self "Holy crap have I dead or am I going more insane than a broken computer." Chapter 4-The world of Color and the unknown.I slowly turned back only to see about 9 colorful horses in all kinds of colors staring at me in confusion and wonder and I thought I was confused. 3 of them were taller and bigger then the other 6 smaller ones that at a sharp resembles of the girls that I just fought for. I stumbled back only to be stopped by a wall as the small purple one that was wearing the crown walked up to me and said Ben, are you all right? My jaw dropped at the talking horse only for all of them to say something at me. My instincts kicked in that I had to get out of here. I saw 2 sets of doors on each side of me I hasted o make a run for one. Be my choice was clear when the right one busted open with more of them that had armour. Nearly 20 guards wer staring me down for attack as I threw a smoke bomb and ran out. Following me charging at as well has the original 9. One with the blue skin and a rainbow main was nearly 3 feet from my back. I hit the watch hoping to get my flight pack online but nothing. I darted around a corner as everyone ran pasted. I look to see that the wings were severely damage let alone one completely gone. Ripped from when in battle. I had to act quickly if I don't find a way to get air born I would have a chance. I saw a tray of sliver wear and took the main plate that was about the right size to fit as a wing. Suddenly I turned back and saw the hord charging again as I booked it dodging others through out the halls, as I turned I saw a big door open and run to it. I closed it and put a pipe in the handles to lock them. I turn asgenst the door to catch my breath with wide eyes I saw that I wa in a huge room with dozens of them, there were two more doors and a wall with large windows. The doors flew open and the pipe gave away as i realize I was surrounded by guards as the main group entered. I knew it was time to get out, I saw a chandelier in the center high enough that I get reach it and launch my self in the air. I picked up the slate and slammed it in the wings motor and activated the pack grabbed the proton gun. The guards took defensive stands as I shot a boson dart at the ground send me to fly up to the clien. Some them flew up to trap me but I had the upper hand. I took a deep breath lended back and run off the chandelier falling to the floor. Right before hitting the ground I shot another boson and got sent flying through the window. Everyone watch what had just happen. Everything was going as planned until I hit a tree out side falling to the ground 30 feet below. I hit the ground in a hard pain since I already hurt my arm and leg. I got up to see I was in a courtyard. I dove behind a hedge as the main door opened as everyone came out to search for me. Knowing that flying wasn't a option anymore I had to spawn thing fast. Dailing the name and slammed the watch as a green light revealing Ecto62. I hopped on attaching the pack to the engine to give more power. She roared to life as I hit the gas. Racing by anyone who tried to get me. Driving through the gate. I saw that I was in a a town. Dodging everyone that when avoiding the guards. Untill I hit a edge of the town over looking a cliff. Great this place just had to be on a mountain with out a flight pack. You can't run from us NOW STAND DOWN!. The voice came from the larger white horse like thing. I realize that I can't go anywhere except down, has I tought hard I got a insane plan. Smirking a smile at the so called (Princess) as I went full speed at her as guards took the ready positions.I slammed my foot down in the ground turning me a complete 180 degrees at even higher speed to the cliff. Everyone looked and gasped at what had just happened as I slowly rose in mid air. Well I guess this bike has some tricks of its own. I flew down trailing the waterfall in a think forest losing power fast. It was 7:35 pm, 5 hours have passed since got here and I already am losing it. I find a cave in a cliff face that I could use for the time being. It corned so if offered some cover and protection. I thought how could I get pulled into this mess. Its been 3 days when I was just relaxing into me running for me life. I checked what iI had to use let alone eat and drink. 3 small snack bags, a handful of crackers, half of a water, a warm soda, and a old sleeping bag. Damn I really need to prepare for things like this. I spawned them in with some tools and parts to work on getting the pack fixed. Later I found a rock on the side of the cave that I used as a bed as I slowly drifted into sleep. For the first time in a week a dreamed something nice. I woke back up in bed that thursday morning and did my normal stuff and did what I can to pass the time. When it reached the night time, I was slowly walking up the drive way to my house when hearing a nose in the trees. I looked closer reading my thrower to see a slender object. It was a dark like blue with large hair. Before I could get closer to but ended up hitting my against a rock. But it was morning so figured to get up anyway. I look outside seeing the sun rise that felt like warmth for once as I saw what time it was, 8:10. As I came back in I to see what I had left to eat. 10 minutes later I gathered all my stuff that I could still keep and use. I walked down to a stream to get some fresh water and get a well needed shower. I knew that I had to find food but didn't where to look. After about an hour I stopped to stretch out and put ecto back in the hypredisc. I passed over a hill to see what looked like a small town with a sign saying Sweet Apples Ancers. Soo a least they has food here. I walked up to see a barn to see there were a ton of apples in baskets everywhere but nothing else. I picked one up to taste it and it was not bad. Right when I was scanning it to duplicate more to store in the disc but before I could finish I felt a large object hit me from behind knocking me cold. Chapter 5 - Say hello to the PrincessesAPPLEJACK WHAT DID YOU DO!? I caught him in my barn, no way am I going to let that varmint take my darn apples. Well it serves him right Twi, he did go crazy when he came here. Ya, but he did it because he didn't know where he was. And when we thought that he was going to attack us he just did something to avoid it. ahhhhhhhhh... Look I thing he's waking up.. Ah what hit me... Here have some water. ThankSSSS... I go to my feet like lighting seeing them around me. Is he going to hurt us!? No Fluttershy, he's just a bit freighted. HE'S frightened? He cause a panic in the entire castle. Ben are you ok? Ahh Ya i'm good but what the heck is on me? You were injured so we help the best we can. Thanks even what has happened for the past day you would still trust me? Well sure because anyone has a chance for something good, right girls. Thanks but you don't even know a quarter of it. What do you mean? Remember when I told up about me going to different dimensions,well it wasn't the only thing I did. When I go to one I help the need the people can't do. Combine the forces against the threat. But at a risk of the evil force from going into others to grow stronger and stronger as we go. To fight these forces I've formed a multi-world team called the Raiders. I'm the head leader with one promise I take to anyone. If theres someone about to be hit I take it. In a struggling moment I'll take your place. After explaining all this to them they sat at the sheer strength my words had showing my true color. Soo if you can travel from world to world why doesn;t you go back? Because the bridge can only go so far. All 62 of the dimensions have a link to one in other which can help log them in. Logging them in the bridges computer makes a custom code to allow the connection. But seing I traveled now threw 3 dimensions away from a bridge it can find where I am useless it goes through ll the places I was. Soo in a way your stuck here. Yes We should be getting ready the princesses are to be coming soon. Ahhhh... Princesses? As if on cue a carriage out side pulled up by two Pegasus pulling two large ones with horns. that were near triple the size of everyone else. The large white one got up walk to the group outside. Greetings Twilight, the one called Celestia said. They took a bow at her except Twi seeing that she was one of them. We came here soon as were heard the news that he was found if I'm correct. Yes, he's inside the library Twilight said. May we see him the princess asked. As if on I opened the door and walked out wearing the chest plate and the arm covers from my power suit just be sure if anything was to go south. Hello there Princess Celestia, is it. Saying it when taking bow of my own. Greetings, but I must first apologues for what had happen in the castle with the guards. They were just doing their duty. I understand that. I have a army of my own that if any possible threat came we would act. Yes and I suppose that brings to the first question where are you from and who are you. My name is Benjamin, Ben for short. Im a human being from the planet and dimension of Earth 1. I'm also the leader of the Raiders. Raiders? everyone asked.. They are the army it spoke of. They are made up of my worlds people to keep the secret of our existence and others from other worlds that are divided to the cause of peace throughout the universe. How do you find them? Well at first it wasn't that easy, but after time I meet a race of robots called Transformers that had a device called a space bridge and a smaller ground bridge that can transport matter through time and space. I modified one to fit my usage. But that doesn't explain how you first meet them. When I first was discovering them I was still new to my powers. Then again I was only twelve at the time. Wait, back up. Your telling us that you have travel to distant worlds, united them, and your the leader and now your what 18? 15 on earth's bases. In other worlds I've been on I've become near in the 100's but yet still having my original young form that everyone knows. I see and what is this so called powers? As she's said that everyone turned to me to see. **sigh** When before you all go to the questions I do want to tell you first that its not the greatest sight. I said that when deactiviating the armour and taking of my shirt. Making some blush a little. I put my hand up to my chest pushed on it for 5 seconds and let it go. Two wings popped up folding to the side reviling the inside of my chest. There was a blue orb housed in a sliverish-gold shell with two metallic handles connected to it. They looked at it in amazement of what they were seeing. Even Celestia and the others looked in shock. Soo the blue Pegasus was the first to speak. WOOOW WHAT IS THAT?! This is the Matrix of universal Power. The matrix of what? the one called Apple Jack said. I was able to remember her name because her human counter part had the same hat. And she was the one who kicked me in the back knocking me out cold. Ohhhh I've read about such relics. Forged by ancient beings of other worldly tip. But nothing was ever found or heard from them because it's said they where alive at the beginning of time. Wow... you got that all right in one try?! Twilight live's in a library with a book of everything you can think of. Said the smaller white unicorn said. She has a knowledge of most of everything common or that no one else knows about. Reminds me of my friends Egon and Perceptor. Two of the smartest people I know. They would even give Twilight a run for her money. Soo what does it do asked a curious Celestia. Well even for me it still has its surprises at times. Its what made me be able to find and go into other dimensions. It original worked y me think of a place that I've remembered from before, places others would say don't exist or not a physical. This defied all that. But did you get such a powerful relic said Twilight. Well it wasn't just sent to my front door for me. I had just turn twelve, walking up to my old white house in a old mining town in the eastern corner of the state. It was a long day with a ton of things happening, but when ever something would happen something... opposite would happen catching my attention. Untill... Untill what? A large blue light shot out of my houses roof. Straight into the air causing a huge source of energy to exploding the sky. With in the corse of 30 seconds it shot back to the house shredding it in to pieces. I screamed at the top of my lungs knowing that my family was still inside at the time of the blast. Everyone looked in horror at the mention of what had happen. But before I could collapse from what had just happen a larger Black figure walk out of the rubble laughing at what just happened. At first I didn't understand him untill he said something about others. That he would do the same to everyone in the universe. Everyone's eyes lit up. I yelled out to him. nonoNO! I WOUN'T LET YOU! He laughed at the remark of a human boy stopping something with the powers of a god. I got to my feet, feeling a weird tingling in my hands just before that a shield was casted over me protecting my from his shot. I looked back to see 11 strange white figures with a black aroma. The center bigger on had a blue circle on its chest when the others has different colors. I took cover to see a incredible battle take. Beams shooting from each side. it was only 3 minutes in when they all fell. I was shocked of had just happen as I ran to the leader. He said in his ding voice. You, your the boy who stood against the darkness of evil in the point of hell. Your bravery , wisdom is the greatest we have ever seen. Take our powers and save all... Right as he died I stood there in shock of his words. I knew who I was in the world but his words made me speechless. I saw the other 10 come closer chanting something. They Started to merge into one single figure. With a orb of light getting bigger as well. A green light flashed as the orb shrank and was incast of shere with two handles... The Matrix... He bent down to me. This is a power of all knowledge and will strength of the cosmos Protected it, use it in the darkest of times with that the figured disappeared in the shere making it glow blue. I grab hold of the matrix in my hands feeling the power surge through me. A power I never thought was possible. I put it on my chest as I felt pain forming around it. I screamed as a hole started to form catching attention of the black figure still on a rampage. I saw it come closer to strike a huge shadowy claw but as it hit me, he screamed in pain. The matrix glowed in its blue aroma as it as inside my chest. I smirk a smile at him. You kill my family, destroy me world and threaten the universe. Now you have another thing coming. I stood there in a ready stance waving my hand in a circular motion before a gigantic blade formed in my hand slicing through the figure. Without stopping untill it was gone. I looked around to see the devastation and people coming at as my powers died down some. Before I could react I saw 4 figures walking up to me. I saw their face and screamed in joy. My family was alive. But the area was ground zero. I don't know what were going to do, We losted everything my dad said. But I knew what could be done as I told them to stand back. My eyes lite up again as the aroma returned to my hands. Clamping the ground as everything started to clear away and rebuild. In mer seconds the wasteland become its normal look again but with the feeling of a new start to it. And as I stood there holding tight to my family it vowed to protect anything in the face of danger of any kind. Soo that's how got the matrix with the powers I turn back to everyone's faces in pure shock,horror, amazement and other emotions. Ummmmm I guess I said too much hmm? Celestia was the first to break the dead quite sound We see. And you've gone to the other dimentions to unit the people using your powers? Well,ya prett much. But dispite all the good that has been brought to them the eveil forces also join and grow stronger. And theres been other reasons... Like what, Twilight said I don't want to go into details but I'll still tell up. I took a deep breath as I began to explan. With these powers I had to separate my worlds into dimention 0 and 1 where there are 2 forms of me. Wait soo theres 2 of you?! Well yes and have 2 different lives and body but our minds are one of the same to the other. Im the original. To protect my real world and everyone I created a clone of me to be me in my average life on earth. When I remain in D1 to protect the people of the worlds. And thats not even a quarter of it. What do you mean? It has also effect my personal life. I could never find my other match no matter what and keeping the secerts in my past are harder to hold from even my most trusted friends. The ponies looked at each other and the sound of it. Think what a life would be like if it was the same for them. I began to feel surrow at the time of me talking to them about this. I walked over to a bunch, sat down, and nearly fell into desprastion. Everyone look what me with my face in my hands trying to hold my self to gether. Before I went in full scence of dispare I felt something brush up against me on the bunch. I looked to see the sister of Celestia with her wing around my bakc patting it. I looked up that she was smiling at me like *Its ok*. I smiled back see the comfort in her eye's explian then I said. You've been through it before haven't you.. She nodded. As everyone came up to use and I could tell what they were thinking. Its getting a bit late how about we take you back to the caslte for the time remaining. we can find you a separe bed room. Celestia said. I smiled at the princess for the offer but a voice in my mind told me not to take it. I thank you for the offer but I must deiny. To everyones expersetion of me turning down the offer. Dispite was has happened for the past days I feel that I would be a birdian to you. Plus Im not cut out for this kind of things. She's nodded in agreement. But a quick question. I asked her. She tuned back to answer. Yes? she asked ina curious voice. Does this town have a old fire house? Mainy about 3 to for stories with a large basment? We do surprisely. We walked to the town fire house that was runned down with old paint holes in the roof, broke glass and trash everywhere. They stood outside the front of the building as I walk in to see what could be done. Major cosmedic work neds to be done But iver all the buildings is sound to the last bolt. They look at each other in cofusstion of me wanting to stay in a run-down fire house. Dash spoke up. How could you live in a place like this, I thought you lived in a strong, clean home on a hill? Ya ,but I feel safe in a familier place. I shall send the royal carpeneders to fix this place,Celestia saidBut it might be about 3 days. Well I have something that can change those 3 days into 30 seconds. What? they all said at the same time. I smile as I turned back to the looked at my watch and smiled. You guys what to see something else incredible? I asked them but in returned gave me a puzzeled look. I smiled again to have a little of my kind of fun. I activate the watch letting out a greenish-blue glow over my face as it shot up. Everyone was surprised at what had just happen. I smiled back as I slammed down the dialer in a large green ball of light. They look to see I was still normal but something majorly changed. My entire right hande had become a claw with a blue cyrstal like object in the canister with a liitle tube on the bottom. My right hand was still the same only with a large metalic like glove with wires all over it. Before the could say anythng I spawn in 6 large sheet of metal and lifted on on each side of the building and one inside. As they watch I shot a energy to each panel to one-n-other and all at the fire house. I switched back and pressed a red botton om my arm making the panel and the buidling glow a red for a second send the panel in to the build. It looked comepletely brand new with everything fix. The green came again as I went back into my normal state. I turned back to see they we're staring at what I just with mouths wide open. Even the princesses were shocked. Well what do you think I do pretty good just with a few things. You don't say. And whats better is that it has everything that I had see. As I open the garage dor the ponies were amzed at what they saw. I turned back to do on the top of the doors was a word and a number Red 63 But the R and E where missing only leaving where they were. strange I said out loud I've been on 62 dimentions and their code starts with D. Well looks like I found Dimention 63. I said with a smile. Oh and you haven't told me something. What is the name of this place? Celestia turned with a grin on her face as she look at me then the other as we walked outside. Seeing how this is the best of time I guess we should tell. Ben Welcome to Equestria Far away underground. Is it REadyy yeT? and we have found a place for to be storaged and build its energy strenght. Exellent after we flill the tunnels with the substance we shall flood the kingdom in our darkness and slime. Sir, there is something else as well.. WHAT... Our scouts have scents a strange unknown energy mass near the caslte but they have spotted hwat is the cause and source of this energy. And what would that be... He goes by the name Ben. Chapter 6:A New StartIt was about 7:30am, I was slowly waking up out of my bed feeling like it was a normal day only to realize that I was still in another dimension surrounded by ponies. Well... might as well get comfortable here. From there I went on with my old daily routine. Wake up sluggishly, get something to eat, take a shower and go to the city but today seemed that I would only be able to do 3 of the 4. I knew adjusting to the is world would be completely different to the others. Mainly because I was a five and a half-foot tall human with a world with 3 1/2 ft tall ponies. Well Ben, you have a lot to do if your going to get back to earth. Somewhere in ponyville... Twilight do you now humans like to eat? Pinkie asked I don't know really but I think what you've made he can eat, He did say he had a sweet tooth. Well how about I make him a overbucked apple pie everyone love's those. True... But you got to remember that he's not use to something like this, Twilight said. I agree we don't know what the other ponies would think even at the first sight of him. Well I think he looks not that bad. I mean sure he is a different kind than us but he does know to make something look good, Rarity stated. But ever the less girls we need him to feel welcomed to our world and help him adjust to it. As if on cue a large explosion rocked the town. WHAT WAS THAT!? Dash yelled out. IT CAME FROM BEN'S HOUSE! Lets Go! Back at the fire house... Well about 2 more of those and I'll have enough room for the lab and the I thought to my self on how to get more rock moved when the garage doors flew open. Hmm someone's in a hurry. I walked up the stair to see a fearful Twilight and friends looking around the fire house. Ahmmm need something girls? I said as I was wiping dirt and rock dust of my face and hands. Ben! Twilight yelled as she run right at me knocking me over. Awow. A Twilight is there something wrong. I said that as Twilight began tighting the hug she had implanted on me in a fearish hold. Oh sorry Ben it just that we heard a large explosion come from your house and we thought that you were hurt. Well I thank you for your concern but I'm more than alright. When what was that blast. It was my clearing out more of the basement with C4 packs. I need the room to place my lab and ground bridge there. And I have about two more of those to do untill I can see if I have Enough room. Oh oK O and if anyone asks what it was tell them it as a earthquake.K Ok, Twilight said with a confused voice. In Canterlot Standing on a balcony looking through a telescope was one of the princesses looking down at the ponyville. LuLu what are you doing? Luna gasped at embarrassment of her sister was spying on somepony or one, I WAS DOING NOTHING! Oh come now I've found out about your ways before you started to get worried. Oh,luna sighed in relief and a bit of anger knowing that she knew that her sister always knew what she was up to. Soo tell me is this about him? Luna couldn't think of a lie to tell and said it anyway. Yes, I've just been curious about our new visitor Ben. I mean sure he's completely different like us but when he told all of us about his story and the hardship he went through I felt like it was when I was before I turned into nightmare Moon. Soo you have feeling that he can be on what you call One heck of a Colt? Luna smirked a little smile as her gave her sister a hug. Dear sister do you really think me and him can... I do luna I do. Back in Ponyville I was cleaning out the cave of what will be my new basement lab. Reforming the walls with metal sheeting, wires and pipes. I was at first able to get some things in like the weather Doppler, Radio receiver, a Ecto containment unit, and the ground bridge control panel. I plugged my watching into the main computer to run a diagnostic on its power and condition. Damage outcome Transformation dial: 12% Proton accelerator: 9% Hyprodisc: 2% Flight/power suit: 87% Flight Pack:92% Damn I'm really going to be busy getting that stuff fixed up but a least the watch and the proton pack still function perfectly. Books and Branches Library Ah Twilight what you searching for exactly? asked Spike. I'm looking for a book that can tell me more about this ground bridge that Ben uses. If I can find something about dimensional travel then maybe I can help him, said a crazy Twilight. Twi don't think you can I mean this is stuff no one but him knows about. **sigh** maybe your right spike, but in the mean time lets just help him in any way we can. there was a knock at the door. Twilight looked to see a letter sitting on the ground that said. Dear Twilight after you've read this message look at spike. ~Ben And right on cue of turning around spike flared up a letter from Ben. Spike handed it to her. Dear Twilight I know that some one of your knowledge would go straight to find a way to help. But at last you don't know what the ground bridge needs and is in the shortest of explanations. And I ask if you can drop by any history books based around the far past if possible. Place in a box at the fire house doors and I'll get them. ~from Ben p.s. I beat you're wondering on how spike got my letter right? Well lets just say that I found out about before Celestia and Luna came. Twilight looked at the in amazement. Like he just knew what was going to happen. Spike bring me any old books that date back about 1,000 years. Ok Twi. Back at Canterlot So luna have you thought about what you're going to do? asked a curious Celestia. Well isn't the Grand Galloping Gala coming up shortly? Yes it is. Tia responded I'm just happy that you're doing something like this... Me to sis. But remember Luna he's not use to our kind of things. I know 5 days later... Sugar Cube Corner SoyouguysreadyfortheGrandGallopingGala! said a exited Pinkie pie. Ya and hopefully this one will go smooth again. I dare curse who ever invites that Blue Blood again. Just then Twilight came in levitating a envelope. Hey girls I got our tickets. They all cheered as Twilight opened the envelope emptying it of the everyone grabbed theres. Twilight remembered to get spike a official pass through then turned back to the table. Strange I don't remember getting 8 tickets she said as everyone looked. Well maybe it was in there be accident. Dash pointed out. Spike flared up a letter as Twilight caught it. Dear Twilight am sure that your wondering why you have received 8 tickets for this years Gala and that Ben has yet to see or join in a equestrian event like this. Me and Luna have taking the liberty of making him a royal invite. After you have finished this please go to tell Ben and give him his ticket. Your grateful mentor Princess Celestia. Soo what does it say? said Applejack bitting into a cupcake. It seems that the princesses have royally invited Ben to this years Grand Galloping Gala. Everyone looked act each other. Wow he hasn't even been here for a week and he gets a royal invite chucked Rarity. At the Grand Galloping Gala Twilight and her friends had just arrived of the front gate of Canterlot to inside. The were greeted by Celestia and Luna dressed in their new dresses. Princess Is great to see you again. And to you to as well, Celestia Soo where is our new friend? Oh, He said he will be here but he said he had something to finish. Oh Ok, well now let's go inside. As if on cue a large flying object was spotted at the castle. As the guards to charged to protect the princess it landed Right In front of them in a Iron Man like stance. I slowly turned up to see they never saw the full suit. As I deactivated the helmet. I turn to see everyone staring at me. What? Did I miss something..? They just stared at the suit. It was a dark blue color with a red streak done the arms and a red and black down the legs. It had a pack attach to the back with a hose going to a gun on the right arm. I turned to the watch seeing has it was a bit much for them as I went back to normal. But even there they keep staring at the parts fold up to the chest plate then to the watch. Twilight saw that I as wearing A lament Blue suit underneath with a white ring around the shirt and a black and red strip down the legs. What? it was the only thing I had that was new,clean, and not bad looking other then my normal look. Well now that your here and the moment has pasted lets head inside and enjoy our selves. The six cheered on and trotted in be the two. I was about two feet away from the door with goose bumps everywhere. I felt something touch my shoulder Seeing the two princesses. Ben is there something wrong? ask a worried Celestia. No, it just that In some case I've been able to make a scene when I just walked in the door of something. plus I don't know what the others will think at the first sight of me. Both Celestia and Luna smiled. But you'll never know if you don't try. I smiled at the gesture. Come, we will help you adjust. Thanks. 2 hours later... It was a great time the mane 6 were enjoying them selves' a lot as the princesses meet with other rulers. I was preached up on a pillar looking at everyone. Thinking on how I could do the same without freaking anyone out. I sighed and saw a open door that led outside to a balcony over looking the city and land. I was about 10:20 at night and yet it didn't seem to die down. I propped up on the railing against a pole spawning a old guitar. It was hot rod red with a black neck and a sliver spiral. Back inside Celestia notice I was out side sitting alone. She felt a little concerned about me not being okay with being at the Gala. Luna saw Me to and she walked up to Celestia. Tia what do you think is wrong with him? I don't know Luna but lets see if we can cheer him up some. Back outside I took a deep breath and looked up at the sky thinking as I did so I slowly started playing a tone. And then it went off like a rocket. Just as I was starting Celestia, Luna, Twilight and her friends came out side. I ripped the tone out into a full blow song.( Three doors down Kryptonite because I knew that some songs can fit the mood.) As I began my voice change incredibly different as I play their jaws dropped. -4 minutes later After finishing the song a felt a bit relaxed on hearing something I knew. As I turned I saw them. I even blushed a little at the thought that they heard the entire song as I played and sang it. Ummmmmm how long have you guys been standing there? Since you started to really ripping it, Dash yelled out. Ben, That was remarkable I never even heard someone sing something like that, Celestia stated. Oh well, Thank you. I just do this in times for me to clear my thoughts out in down times. As I got of the railing a large explosion erupted from the main gates. Sir we have the boy's location. Excellent find him and destroy anything in your way... Chapter 7: The Face of Darkness ...Me, Twilight and the other rushed to the gates to see what had cause the explosion. There stood 3 dragons about the same height as me covered in a gooy substance. Spike and the others look to see it was the 3 teenage dragons that tease spike and try to throw chaos in ponyville. But I looked to something horrorificly wrong. What happened to them?! yelled a scared Twilight. DON'T THEM TOUCH YOU IN ANYWAY! WHAT?! They all turn to me to a reason. That black stuff I 've seen it before its so toxic the slightest touch can have the most grave effects. WHAT IS IT THEN...They yelled out. Its Black Slime. At the moment of saying that the 3 three dragons turned to the group. GRAB THE BOY, TAKE THE ELEMENTS, KILL THE PRINCESSESS. We stared at the of they just said in a single dark, blood turning voice. NOT ON MY WATCH... I stood in front of the group looking at the watch. and slamming the dialer again. This time in a blackish red light. After the glow stopped I stood there wearing the Mark 21 Proton Pack. Modeled after the 1991 (video game pack) With a lot more modes. I also was wearing a pair of strange goggles, 4 square objects formed on my belt. One being a Sabar Trap, and meters. ( Sabar Trap: Custom High copacity slamming trap designed to take in any near by ecto energy through the sides when a ghost is being drain into the trap.) Everyone was standing there watching. Even the guess came out of the castle to see. Ben, What are you doing?! Im going to show you a light show.I said smirking a grin as I turned bak to the dragons. I reached back grabbing the thrower as blue energy siseled from the handle. I drew it of the hook slamming my thumb on the activator switch. Roaring the Proton Pack to life in its most well known sound. The accelerator lite up and began to cycle as the other models went online. Every one stood back as they knew a battle was about to take place. Celestia get everyone inside NOW. Without hesitating she did so leave her sister, the mane 6 and herself to watch on the steps of the castle. The large dragon shot up and fired a large ball of dark energy. But I easily deflected it with a large boson dart. Everyone stood back at the blast as I began firing a proton beam at them. Making then separate. I folded down the goggle seeing that they were really possessed back the slime. I switch to the shock blast and froze them in place. Princess what do think is going to happen them. I don't Know Twilight. After freezing them in place firing 3 large slime mines at them coating them. Ben what are you doing their already covered with slime... She paused to see the slime devolving the black slime. After the Stassis Beams effects broke the 3 dragons fell to the ground. But was caught be Celestia bring them to her and the group. Now it was just the Black slime ghosts that were very weak. I threw out the trap and Switched the proton beam. By now everyone was standing out side watching me wrangle one over the trap as a large cone of light opened sucking the ghost in. 1 down 3 to go. I muttered to my self. One ghost was charging straight at me. Only to be grabbed and slammed right into the trap in a flash of yellow light. That makes 2. I look around and couldn't find it. But then a large scream came as I saw the las ghost holding Princess Luna in its claws. Someone HELP!, Luna cried out. HOLD ON. Ben wait you will hit her, yelled a feared Apple jack. I know what I'm doing. I paused and switch the modes again. This time a purple light came from the accelerator as the throwers nozzle slit open and began to spin. A large ball of light built up as the lights flashed faster and faster. Untill I released the trigger sending it right at Luna and the ghost. The ghost shrieked in pain dropping luna. I ran and was able to catch her before hitting the ground. As she ran back to the group I turned back at the ghost reading an attack. It was like an old fashion western stand-off when the one guy is waiting for the other to make their move. It just about shot a blob of slime before I pulled the wrangler on him slamming him to the ground straight into the trap. And the third time is a charm. I picked up the trap as everyone began to cheer on that I won the fight. But I felt something off. I turned back to see a shadowy figure standing 10 yards away. Soo our the one called Ben if I'm not mistaking. Yes and it depends on who's asking. I'm the person who will END YOUR PATHETIC LIFE. I debt that. I said as firing a boson dart causing him to moan at the hit. WHAT KIND OF MAGIC IS THAT! The kind that will send you back to the nether world. You foal you have yet to see what I can truly do. He said as a large orange orb formed. And to began by killing your friends! He said throwing it to the group and disappearing. NOOOOOOO! I yelled out when sliding right in front of the object exploiting my hand. I was sent flying backward at by the blast. I slid in front of the group in horror of what had just happen. I lied there motionless. Blood was all over my arm and chest with burn patches on my cloths and equipment, BEN! everyone yelled Running to me. Celestia's horn glowed to stabilize me to stop the bleeding. A cart pulled up being pulled be two guards. Both Luna and Celestia levitated me onto it as we flew off to another part of the castle. 5 minutes later... At Canterlot hospital. BRING HIM OVER HERE NOW WE NEED TO STABLIZE HIM... GET THE BLEEDING UNDER CONTROLL... After five minutes from were I got hit hard by a large ecto blast in the castle court yard the princesses rushed me to the hospital from my intense bleeding and injuries. WHY IS NONE OF THIS WORKING DOCTER!? I DON'T KNOW NURSE... Waiting out side the group of doctors were Celestia in pure shock, Luna in tears, and the Mane 6 trying to hold them selves together. It wasn't even a week from when I arrived and yet right now I was on the brink of death. GET THAT WATCH OF HIM. WE NEED TO CONTROL THE BLEEDING.. IT WOUN'T COME OFF.. The docters tried to get the watch off but inadvertently trigged the watches security systems. Authorization deined. WEARER DNA DAMAGED BEING OPERATION REGENRATION. They all stood back as my body began to glow different colors. Most of my body glowed green. The areas where I was injured glowed a dark red an areas around it a yellowish orange. Then in a bright blue flash the red and yellow areas started to turn green with the wounds going away. Everyone ever saw anything like it. As the glow faded. the watched stated. DNA DAMAGE REPAIRED. STASSIS LOCK OPEN. After it said that I gasped for air. BEN! Everyone ran up to me. Giving me the biggest hug I've ever gotten. Luna was one for the moment. She's jumped up to me. Hugged me so tight I nearly lost my breath again. Ohh sorry... She said with a little blush on her face. Ben how did you... Remember when I told you about my powers. Will after I gotten the watch I had them linked to each other. The Matrix repaired and zoned out the problem when the watch detects the problem. But whats more important was what the heck that figure was. We want to know as well. And I want to know where the slime came from. What was that slime anyway? Ectoplasma or in simple terms Slime is a substance from ecto entities like ghosts and monsters. Fluttersky shrieked at the world of it. Slime comes in different colors and properties for different entities. A clearish green is the most common. Yellow slime is said it be a acid likesubstance that ghost coat them selves soo they can't be touched. Pink slime or Mood slime is a devilish form for slime that feeds off of anger, sorrow and other negative emotions. White slime is a prejen, Something that can help ghost gain energy till there strong enough to get sent out of the slime. Now Black Slime is deadly. It can open portals to the ghost world and spawn its own kind of ghosts,monsters,fielders and crawlers. It is also involved in the refinement of mood slime. But what was that dark green slime your shot at the Celestia. It is a reversed compound that has a positive charge in it. The tank on the pack regenerates it so that I have a nonstop supply. It able to destroy black slime, seal portals, weaking ghosts, find them in hidden places and even strip someone from a possession. They turned to each other with a puzzling look. But what happened tonight wasn't a Black slime event. But then what hit you?,asked Twilight. Even with out my power suit my clothes are able to inslate the slimes effects. Say a ghost would have chucked a blob of slime to you. ou would just be knocked down and gotten back up. Soo those green lights on the side of the pack showed how much strength you have. Yes, but there other stuff that. Dark Energon is one kind. But is rare times the crystal would make contact with Black Slime can make ... I stopped dead in my words to the sheer thought of it truly happening. Make what Celestia asked with concern. Dark Slime. Isn't that just black slime Dash pointed out. No no no. Dark Slime is pure blood of everything evil. Just being touched be a drop of it can be fatal. And whats even worse that With it so rare from where I am theres nothing to destroy it with. And if there was pools of this stuff here then this world has a big problem... Chapter 8: Pedal to the MetalCanterlot- (Luna and Celestia talking) It has now been a full 3 weeks since Ben arrived to Equestria and he is still having difficulty adjusting to life here. Several days ago a evil force had shown itself to us all. And in the most incredible act of courage and bravery Ben put him self in harm's way to protect us. We had a completely new respect for him that it was true that he would protect anyone in harms way in a time of need and helplessness. Me and luna see that a new face of darkness like no other is apone them and that Ben maybe our only way to save our world and hope that he can find his way back home I still can't belive that Ben would put his own life to save me, Luna said. Yes, it does seem that even tho he's still not full use to us it seems that he already holds a part of us in his heart. And is to keep us all safe till his end, Celestia said. Its just that when he caught me from falling I was in pure fear but when I looked at him I had the feeling of warmth and safety. Then why don't you o tell him how you feel. TIA..Luna yell out. Come now don't tell me that yu have a little more for him to your heart then anyone else, Celestia stated And maybe you can do so on your day. What day? Luna asked a puzzled. You know..Nightmare night. Oh, I don't know sis I mean what if he finds out about what the day was ment to stand for?, Luna said with a worried voice. To me he's more then another living thing, its like he's the opposite version of me.. Well then why don't you go get to know him better. Learn more about him to get it started up, Celestia stated with a grin. Alright Tia. She said hugging her. Back in Ponyville...in the fire house. SUBSTANCE UNKNOWN. MINERALS 44287 THOURGH 45691.. OUTCOME FOR POWER SOURCE:FAILED DAMN IT, that's the 18th crystal that's useless. For the past week I have tested different crystals and power sources to power the space bridge. And none of they have been able to produce enough power. Keep it together Ben, you'll find a way. And for the few days I've tried to figure out what the dark figure was that shot me with Dark slime. I got up to go up stairs and take a break for working 3 days without sleep. As I went up the stairs to the second floor there was knocking at the door. Oh god, what now. Said in a dreadful voice. I climbed back down to the door. As I cracked it open I saw a gray peagus with blond hair and a derp like eyes. Yes? Delivery for ahhhhhhh...Hen. Its Ben. Oh ok, well here you go. Thanks, wait whats your name? Derpy Whooves, why you ask. Nothing for anything just trying to get the names down for others. OH ok. Twilights Library Spike have you seen my wizard hat? No Twi. You said you would go as something else. Oh, well what should I go as? I don't know Spike. Just put your crown on and be a princess. Oh haha very funny Spike. I hope this Nightmare Night is a great one. I heard that the princesses were coming to celebrate as well. Wow that's different. But what about Ben. I found a book on human world relations, one was called Halloween. Its something almost exact to Nightmare Night. Oh So I know he'll be ok after all, all he has to do is slam his watch and... Just then a strange sound came outside past the library. What was that Twilight,said a curious Spike. I don't know but let's go see. After walking out side they see two burn trail that fallow the path to the towns track court. On cue the rest of the group ran up to Twilight asking what the heck it was. What on earth was that terrifying nose?, Rarity Said. I don't know. I never heard a sound like that. Just then Rainbow Dash swooped down is guest of wind. OH MY GODASH DID ANY ONE SEE THE SIZE OF THAT THING?! We heard it sugar cube but we didn't see it. Applejack stated. What does it look like Rainbow Dash? I don't know what it is but it's covered by some gray metal with a weird stick on the back of the roof. I saw it heading to Ponyville's track field. Alright let's go girls. 5 minutes later... The girls finally arrived to the field to see a large metal object sitting in the middle of the track. They ran up to be looking behind it. Rainbow Dash pointed something out. Hey whats that say on the back of it? When she said that the girls looked closer to the name. Its says T I V, Twilight said. WhattheheckdothatmeanTwilight, Pinkie Pie specked out as everyone put a hoof on her mouth. Just then a slam cam from the object as something closed. Wait is that Ben?... As I closed the hood of the vehicle and sighed. Well old girl hopefully these upgrades hold up. And hopefully your changes could be added to the other cars. I said as I closed the driver side door, Just then the girls were making their way around the stands to see me inside. Whats he doing? Right on cue I turned the starter roaring the vehicle to life scaring Fluttershy a little. Begin functions test. I pulled 8 levers down lowering the 4 flaps and spikes out side to the ground then lifted them again.. I activated the air cannon sending a little tube in the air and landing through the roof's hatch. Wha..wha...what was that... Fluttershy said a little scared. Alright girl LETS SEE IF YOU STILL GOT IT!. I said slamming my foot down on the gas pedal spend the vehicle flying down the track. The girls watched in amazement for the machine going so fast. Even Rainbow Dash looked a little impressed. I rounded the next turns like they weren't even there. As I made the final turn I hit the overcharge sending the vehicle away like a rocket down the gravel path of the track. And out of nowhere a tornado had spawn from a cube on the road heading right at the vehicle. The girls gasped in horror as the machine speed even fast to the at a instant it stops and drops the flaps and spike again as the tornado goes over it and even throws parts of a tree at the vehicle. Hold on girl. I held down the parking brake in case the flaps broke( thank go they didn't) As quick as it formed the twister died leaving the vehicle a little messy. You still got the touch, I said grinning. Come on girls lets get down there. I hoped out of the vehicle as the girls came up to me. Oh hey guys what are you all up to. They looked puzzled at the gesture. Us? what the heck is this thing and where did that tornado come from? It came from spawners I made and the thing your looking at is a old part of my original life. The TIV3. The TIV?3? Rartiy asked. It's short for its full name, Tornado Intercept Vehicle I call it the Twister Impactor Vehicle. Its built to survive being inside tornadoes. Why would you build something for that. Few reason the top two is Data of the tornado and Video. Plus where Im from you get a lot of attention with it on the road. This one is modeled after the TIV2 How many are there? If you count mine and the last one known to be built about 16 but only 5 are named TIV. Well we came to see if you would like to go to Nightmare Night with us. Nightmare Night? Its something Like your worlds Halloween but we pay contribute to the night an its spooks. Well... Ok by I must warn you around times like this I can get a little strange. Why? Because with the time of year like this it would become a Paranormal Nightmare. Chapter 10: Luna's Dream come TrueOk now lets run diagnostics and transformation sequence. Transformation success full. Alright I want to open her up some give me 35% thrust power and activation start-up in 3...2...1... It has been 2 weeks from the nightmare night accident and life has so far gone back to normal. Rainbow Dash lied in my bed sound asleep from working out to get her energy up. Me and Twilight were up on the roof testing the changes to the flight pack. Alright now lets see what we can do, give me full thrust power. Ummm Ben are you sure that's safe? If my math is correct then with this upgrade I'll be able to travel at mock 4 speeds. Even tho at nonstop dash can reach mock 6. And how fast was Mock 4 again? About 500 mph or about 700. Now lets test it in 3...2...1... OHHHHHHHHH... Canterlot Tia do you have a moment? Luna asked Sure lulu whats troubling you? It's just that when ever I try to get me and him alone it like something always gets in the way and I'm wondering if im the cause of it... Of course you're not the reason. Celestia said with a grin pulling Luna closer to her with her hoof. Even Ben has said that things happen for reasons. Some maybe connect, some are not even close. And you choose the way you can make them happen. What do you suppose I do? Luna asked. When he's alone and your alone go to him. Thanks Tia, Luna said hugging her sister. 2 miles away in the sky I was flying around like willy neily. I couldn't get the packs controls to work and I was dodging trees and mountains. I saw that I was near Canterlot as it sent me straight to a tower. Barely dodging it. I screamed as I was going right through another tower. LOOK OUT! But the person didn't dodge it in time. I opened my eyes to see that in my hands was a screaming Luna I thought to my self... How can this get any worse... Just then we went straight up into the sky. Before we could do again the pack lost power. Sending us plummeting to the ground a mile in the air. Luna tried to fly but couldn't concentrate and I was trying to get the pack to work. We fell closer to the ground I saw Luna was starting to cry.. I positioned my self in to the divebomb pose and angle my self straight to Luna. I reached out and held her close as we tumble to the ground below. COME ON YOU PEICE OF JUNK, WORK.!... In a sure part of anger I hit the pack. The accelerator popped out blowing a puff of smoke as it restarted. I got control back angling us away only to collide with a flower vendor. SORRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYY! I yelled out as I went right back to the tower. I let go of Luna right on her floor hearing a big thug on hit. SORRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYY! I said fling out the other window back to the firehouse Luna got up and rubbed her head. How do these things happen to me... Before she could finish she saw a blue and red rose place beside her. She then grabs the Blue one that had a note tied to it. She began to read the small note. To high in the sky to the ground below... Remember to never let go... After reading the letter she turned back to the window watching the stream of smoke from my pack. 5 hours later I was sitting on the roof watching sunset. I've done for the past 4 weeks. Sitting outside untill the moon was fully out. I try to find nice places to watch it happen. One was a hill sitting next to a lake with two trees half way up the hill. I would leaned back on the one part playing smoothing music as the sunset. ( and surprisely it was more closer to Canterlot then ponyville.) I would sit there untill mid-night when I would go back to the fire house. Luna was standing on her balcony waiting for the sun to lower for her to raise the moon. She look down at Crystal Lake and saw a blue light coming from the hill-side. It would be about 30 minutes till she could raise the moon so she flew down to investigate. I sat there playing old hologram recordings of past events. Remembering the old times when traveling from world to world for fun and discovery. At the end it showed a photo of me and my entire family. I miss you guys but your still in my heart. Just then Luna walked up from behind the bushes. Princess Luna what are you doing here. I thought you were going to raise the moon soon. I was but notice a light coming from the lake so I looked to see what it was. Oh' Was that your family? Ya, me my parents, sister... the whole shubang. Can I see it again? Sure Luna trotted over as she raise the moon into place and sat beside me. I can never get tired of that, it's the only time I can see it and all the stars in the sky. Luna Blushed at the comment. I started the watch back up to show the pictures again. Soo this are your army? Their friends along the way but in times their more than just that. I think of them as a bigger family that never stops growing. Just then a cold wind blew past us. I was wearing a sweat shirt to keep me warm when luna shivered at the sudden chill. She curled up to keep her self warm. I remove my sweat shirt placing it on her. She gasped at the sudden warmth as I leaned back on the tree. Thank you Ben. She said hugging the shirt more. But won't you get cold? Na, I've survived worse. Ben I have a question and I want to know yes or no. Sure, what is it? If something was to happen to me would you go to no stop to make sure I'm safe? Of course I would. I mean because of something else.She said placing her hoof near my hand. And so do I. I said grabbing hold of her hoof as she blushed. Can I... Yes. She placed her head down on to my chest to rest a little. She felt warm and safe for going so close to Ben. She felt that it was a dream come true to be loved. She thought to her self. He really does care more about me then I thought. I wish this moment could last forever... She said dosing off into a peaceful sleep. I sat there enjoying the moment as well. I looked up to see a twinkling star shining then looked back down at luna. I smiled and leaned down to her cheek. Giving her a little kiss. The next morning. Luna slowly woke-up to be in her room and bed. Oh by Celestia please.. that couldn't be just a dream. Just then Celestia walked in levitating a tray of food over. Morning moonshine brought you some breakfast. Thanks Tai So how did you sleep. She said pouring a cup of warm tea. It was a wonderful dream. Me and Ben were down at the lake and he said that he really did mean what I mean and gave me a little kiss... ... and what's on me. She looked to see that she was wearing a gray sweat shirt that said Raiders Foot ball team. She leaped in joy knowing now that it wasn't a dream but that it really did happened. He really does love me. She said hold the shirt tight in her hoofs. And I love him back. Later that day... Luna was on her why to see Ben. Last night was truly magical. Luna Saw that there was a gathering of ponies in the street. She swooped down to see what is going on. And saw Twilight in the crowd What is the now happening Twilight ? Ben found a trail of dark slime, he followed it to the towns...sewer. Ahhhhh, Luna was both disgusted and speechless. Just then I climb out of the sewer hole covered in green slime. Ben what happened down there?,Twilight asked. I found this little bugger flying around inside. Had to hose him down a LOT to get it in. I held up a jar of Dark slime but to everyone shock it moved. IT MOVED?! Neckromintour. Or in simple terms the start of a slime monster. What are you going to do with it? I'll take a sample from it and start breaking it done and try to reverse the negative charge in it. With that I'll be able to make a slime that can oppose Dark Slime 3 days later... After obtaining a pure sample of Dark slime I've run a multitude of tests to get a reverse effect and finally I've got it. I merged it also with the Regen green slime that way I can have a constant supply. I mounted it to a my pack and a new proton pack that I hope to get finish quickly. Before I could admire my progress the alarm came on. CLASS - V(5) Spitter DETECTED - SOUTH EAST LOCATION - SWEET APPLE ANCRES Well best time as any to test the new slime. I ran to Ecto 4x4c started the engine and siren and raced out to the ranch. After getting there a large ghost was attacking the house. Applejack and Big Mac kept on kicking apples at it but nothing worked. Twilight,Rarity,Rainbow Dash,Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie were there trying to help GET TO COVER , I shouted out reading the new upgrade. I remember the last time I fought a spitter. It was what had nearly killed me on the day of the gala. Ben Look out, Dash yelled. saw a huge blob of slime fling straight at me. I switch the modes and took aim. But this time Blue Slime came out of the slime blower nozzle with a blue after glow. Desolving the blob in mid air. About 5 minutes later the ghost was destroyed and the slime removed. This is the 5th time we've been caught off guard. And just my one proton pack can't do a job needed for 10 people. Well what should we do? They get past the pke disruptors, get stronger, and then go on a rage. I have a thought on what we could do. What? We made our way back to the fire house. I walked them down stairs in front of a large wall. Girls I'm going to make up into Ghostbusters. I slam a button on the wall, folding into two different parts showing a line of multi color proton packs, and 6 custom jumpsuits. They looked in excitement and amazement. Each proton pack was color coded to each of the girls with their cutie marks on the N-filters. There was two sets of each. To for each element of air,earth and magic so that they could be more fitted for the task. They strapped on the suits and packs, then looked at a mirror I had. Say hello to The Ghostbusters Unit EoH district Equestria Now. Chapter 11: Bucked beneath the DeepAlright, fine I'll go but I'm not sure it's a good idea to go somewhere with all the problems here not to mention what happened to Dash. Come on Ben even you can't say that you need to get out and relax. Ya but even tho you guys are able to handle it its hard to just relax. Sugar cube you need to settle down from all the hard work you've been doing. No to mention saving the princesses and Rainbow Dash's life. Fine I'll go but I'm taking a P.k.e. and M.a.e. meters, No question. Fine fine can you get going I bet I can get there in less then 5 minutes. There I was sitting on a train with the six that some how managed to talk me into going to the beach. At first I wanted to stay and keep guard up but they said I needed to relax some of the tenons on me. I was still in the effects of what happened when I gave Dash the shard and known that there is a Dark Slime Demon Pinkie Pie makes me wonder of there are others. The train jerked to a stop tell me that we arrived. We are at a beach near the city of Manehatten and it was packed. I sat up a laptop, clipped the meters to the screen and scanned. At first ponies near by gave me a puzzled look until they saw the watch and saw that I was the one who stood guard for the royals. For most of the day went pretty well as the mane six enjoyed the sun. I even set up a 30 foot long diving board for them to use. Applejack and Dash enjoyed it the most. Pulling stunts of all kinds to see you can do the biggest splash. Rainbow Dash had just did a triple flip nose dive making the water shot up about 4 feet in the air. HA, you all call that a big splash. Let me show ya all what Mean Grandpa can do,Applejack yelled out at the end of the diving board. What's the mean grandpa? I asked Twilight. Oh no...Lets just take about 5 steps back and watch. Why... before I could finish Applejack had already jumped off in more of her way to buck tree launching her 5 feet in the air she took a cannonball like pose untill aiming her back legs to the water. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAA... In 5 seconds of her hitting the water nothing happened untill a large bowl of water shooting 12 feet in the air sending a 3 foot tidal wave to the beach. Thats a Mean Grandpa Damn, I think she splashed the contes away. I said with a chuckle. We stood around waiting for Apple jack to surface and be congratulated but after a minute we got worried. How long has she been able to under the most... 45 seconds at most. Just then a explosion of water came with Applejack flying with black tenticals wrapped around her legs pulling her into the water as she scream. I quickly acted running into the water and swam to her. But with of not knowing how to swim. I tried my best to stay as float as I made my way to her. BEN! HOLD ON IM COMING. Just then I get pulled under water which was almost crystal clear underneath. In the water a ball of pink slime like form was pulling us down. I try to arm the pack but couldn't because of the risk of a nuclear surge if slat water hit the core or went through the throwers nozzle. I looked over to see a red mist formed around Apple jack. She was bleeding from the grip of the tentacles. I pulled out a pocket knife cutting it out my ankle and swam over to her cutting th tentacles. But more and more formed and slowly made their way to us. I took off the watch placing it around her fore leg and slammed in the power suit. But this time in a ball of orange light because of the suit resizing to her shape to give her protection and air. I slowly pushed her to the surface with me. I felt a large tentacle pull me down as more wrapped around me. The ball of slime now in front of me slowly formed into a head then a full body. That of a shape of another pony. At first I thought it was Demon Pie but this time it had a horn with curly hair. Demon Rarity floated there as I struggled to break loose. With out the power suit I couldn't do anything. As her mouth opened to the size of her about to eat me I grabbed the proton thrower and activate the venting system opening the pack's accelerator cores letting out a huge white light as I shot the thrower. Rocketing me to the surface with my last legs of air. Back on the beach the others waited for us or something to happen. Soon a large orange object surfaced floating to the shore. Everyone at first thought it was me in the suit but when they saw it was in the shaped of a pony. The mouth/ face mask opened as the helmet retracted to the suit revealing Applejack with with cuts and slashes all over her with her legs bleeding very badly as she gasped for air. Just then I was sent flying out of the water with a proton beam behind me as I crashed landed near the shallow part of the water. I groaned as I got up and ran to te group and AJ. She was still wearing the watch as I dialed the repairing system. DNA DAMAGE TO SEVERE FOR REPAIRS HOST ENERGY SOURCE: LOW Everyone looked in shock that the watch couldn't fix Applejack. That she was already gone. I stood there in disbelief. Something that has keep me alive through death dyfing times wasn't working. I open my chest plate plucking another matrix shard. Placing it on her chest. OVER RIDE REPAIR SQWINCE CODE 10-61 CODE EXCEPTED BEGINING REPAIRS. The health colors formed has the crystal snaking her chest as a gasp of air was a reaction from the shard. DNA DAMAGE REPAIRED MATRIX LIFE SHARDS AT 78 PERCENT. A blank face to hold of me as Applejack slowly rose to her feet. But keep her down to rest. Ben what did it mean when it said life shards at 78 percent? asked a concerned Twilight. It's nothing. 3 hours later... Ahhhhhh what in the tarnation happened. You were attacked by another slime monster. Rainbow Dash said hugging her best friend. Really...? Last things I remember was getting pulled down and have Ben put his watch on me then after the flash of orange light nothing.. Wait where is Ben? Right here. I went back to the beach and recovered your hat. Thanks partner. As I took a step back a large sharp pain hit me in the chest making me fall back into a near by chair. Ben! are you ok? I need to go to Cantorlot. And tell Celestia something important. Why... Is it just to see Luna again. Dash said with a smirk. I stood there with a serous face as she stopped laughing . No... I need to tell her to prepare everyone in the land for events like no other. What...? If the dark slime made its way over 600 miles away from where it was first was found then that means theres a larger source of the slime sending it all over the land. How do you know that? Back in my world the when I was still getting new to the ground bridge I found I could also bend small parts of time. It's how I first meet the Ghostbusters in 1986. 3 years later we had a big problem happen again. Vego the Carpathian and the mood slime. I called him the Slime Master because he got his power from the mood slime running under New York City's old subway system. It flowed in the tracks where it built up at the museum where he was. Wait why would he be in a museum? He died in between 1400 to 1505 but his spirit stayed in the painting he was on or in the case in. After a year we found an island that was where the slime came from. Soo the slime was made by someone? Yes, his name was Shandor. We fought him in 1995 sending him into a billion pieces. But that wasn't the end of the slime. Later the island rose and sent Black slime monster,ghost,crawlers, and other creatures. I continue on explaining more of my story and about the problems that we could have with slime. But theres not even subways in Manehatten and if there's slime every where then how is it moving. Thats the one thing I want to know. And is all the more reason for me to ge to them and tell them this. But Ben you had help from dozens of others at the time... and in your world. And if this stuff is so toxic to you then how would you fight it? Only time would tell that. Spike go get me some ink and paper. Yes Twilight. Chapter 12: Calm before the StormSome where in the west( Earth) Scienctists are in disbeleif of the year insanely quite tornado season that was said to be the worst on record. The years total count was expected at 1,850 but so far for the past 4 months have only produced less then 25 of that count and all were registered under SF2.( Strenghtened Furgitia Scale.) Rescent signs of the unexpected weather patterens may have something to do with the suns 11 year cycle. But on the bright side people all over the pains are happy of no threat from tornadoes. Equestria A S A large outbreak of tornadoes rage through the west flatting several towns, injurying 62 and killing 3. Weather Mantaners have this to say. We are exstremely conrerned for the weaher effects of this and for the past days was not created by any weather distract in a 1,000 mile radius and we are investitgating the uncontrolled weather patterns. Canterlot My lady we must do something of this problem. Many lives are going to peices by the strange weather that we don't know how is being made. I understand mayor. I'll send out royal forces to help in the recovery prossess. Some where in a field outside Ponyville I was sitting infront of 5 computer screens. Watching as the imagen on each one changed. I was sitting inside a Dow truck (Dopplar On Wheels) watching the weather to get a base line reading on the atmosphere. I Knew that the weather was crontroled by the ponies of Cloudsdale and I knew that they could change it at anytime. I was scanning the upper atmosphere where normal weaher would from. Twilight sat outside with my laptop watching the scans in amazement of such a divice recording the weather changes. She climb up into the cable to se more of the screens as I was raising the trucks Weather mass tower. So how do you like being in a Dopplar truck. Its great. I can learn soo much more about equestria's weather in real time. I pointed at one of the screen showing a green and yellow mass. See that. Thats a rain storm. The color show's the rains strenght from low green, med yellow to heavy red. Fasinating... Alright, lets pack up and get back to the fire house to upload the data. Alright... You do know I can still drive and you control the radar. REALLY! After getting everything packed up, Twilight getting comferable in the operators chair we went back to town. Which dispite it's size has path ways solid enough and big enough to drive me vehicles on. We pulled in the firehouse and lowered the elevator to the labs. That I added when remodeling the lab thats no the size of Cantorlot's ball rooms combined. After parking the truck we went back up stairs where Applejack and Rainbow Dash were doing so practice firing with their proton packs. Hey guys. ALR Sup. Getting some practice in for the packs I see. Ya, but thats not why here. Whats up? Well you know about th crzy weather Equestrai has been having. Yes Well me and the others at cloudsdale have being tying to find out why its been happening and scent you have Storm Chased tornadoes we want to know if you be able to help us. Hmmmm alright, but I need a way to get my vehicles up there. That wouldn't be needed we have a ground station already up. You can just drive it them there. Alright We got back in the truck as Rainbow Dash lead the way. ALRIGHT EVERYPONY MAKE WAY FOR THE BIG GUY. We pulled in hocking the horn if anyone didn't listen with the ambre lights flashing with the dish rotating. I saw it was like a camp site with tents set up and several peasguses. I stopped and turned off the truck. Most to some of them were shocked at the site of me and large blue object. The rest look normal, Maybe because they saw me at the Gala and Nightmare night accidents. A large pony walked up to greeted me. Welcome to our little station Ben. Thank you Rainbow Dash says that you can aid us in this drastic times. Well shes not wrong. All I got to do is set up and I'll be ready. I turned back to the dow, turned the key starting the engine and lights again. Starteling some. I hoped out and opened a large latch to another door that showed the entire inside of the trucks cab. Twilight was even amazed at it. I went over to a key borad next to the window, punched in a few letters starting the dish up. It lower to point straight around as it began to rotate letting out a little win after the pass. The screens light up in data charts, weather graghs and dopplar read out. I pulled 5 levers down lifting the truck in the air with 5 large metal bars and finally raised the 40 foot tall tower. She ready to go. Now we will be able to keep track of any storm activity around the next 1,000 miles. And to make sure its a uncontroller I programed the radar to detect your workers if they spawn cloud even and if their not near the storm then We'll know. For several hours I stared at the screens waiting for something to pop up. Twilight bring me a drink at times to keep me stable. Anything yet? Nope, And this is the one part of the idea of storm chasing that no one likes... Waiting. And question. how do your worlds tornado normal get formed. Well a peagus must find a clear area where no wind is at. they fly in a circular form at the ground or the sky. They concentrate the wind to form the tornadoes size and shape then whats ever near it gets sucked up. And for the past several days hat hasn't been the case. Pretty much Dash said trotting over. Anything yet? Not much. At times a small rain storm that only lasts for about 5 mintues. But I have been watching this one storm in paticuler. I clicked the mouse showing a large ball of red and yellow. A strong rain storm thats been getting a little stronger. Owww, ALRIGHT WHO THREW THAT...! We turned to see one of the workers on the ground rubing her. You alright? Dash asked. Ya but somepony dropped a heavy snow ball at me. She said pointing at a large white ball. Thats some werid snow. WAIT THATS NOT SNOW. They turned to me in confusstion as I tusted my pocket knife breaking the ball into 2 perfect parts. See these rings inside there water thats been frozen over and over again. Its a baseball sized peice of Hail. On cue another hail stone smashed through a nearby table. Soon it was raining hail stones the size of grape fruit. RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! Some one shouted. Me, Twilight and Dash ran back to the dow. I quickly closed the dishes hail guard sheild to protect it as we piled into the cab. After 3 minutes we walked out to see large hail stones and crators around us. Several ponies coming out from a near by shed, under tables and even from underneath the truck. Alright everyone it over now. I opened the hail guard as a new scan came in. No it's not. Everyone looked over at me as I turned on a large screen outside the truck for everyone to see. See that storm with the blue center... thats what just hit us. Now look theres 18 more of them behind it. Everyone's faces dropped at the sound of more stronger storms coming. I need to get back to town and ready the sirens Cantorlot YOUR MAGESTY! YOUR MAGESTY! REPORTS OF TORNADOES ARE BEING REPORT JUST OUTSIDE THE TOWN LIMITS OF PONYVILLE... Chapter 13: Royal Tornado InterceptI WANT EVERY PONY IN THIS TOWN UNDER HIGH ALERT. Make sure that everyone is prepared for the worst and gets under ground in time. Yes Ben. I want some eyes in the sky. Radio in if you have a touch down with in a mile of the town. I'll have a live feed when you do. ALL RIGHT WONDERBOLTS YOU HEARD HIM!... It has been a crazy day. First it started as a normal get the data kind to a fight to figure out what is happening. After being hit by a large hail storm I found that the town and nearby areas were in a huge threat. Kicking a old habit right back into place. Twilight, get a message out to Celestia about the weather. Tell her to be ready for anything to happen. On it. Dash, I need you and Soarin to be my early warning system. Go through and start telling the news. On it. What can I do Ben? I turned to see Spike. I need you to be in here. When a blue circle goes around on of these storms I need you to radio everyone one where it is. Ummm Ok. I was in overdrive. It was like coordinating my old chaser armada back in the early days. But what are you going to do Ben? I have something back the firehouse that might help us. What? Before I could answer I flew off to the station to get ready a old war horse. She weighs 50,000 pounds and yet acts like she's on air. 5 inches of pure steel and armor. With a 3 ton coolant cannon... TIV X. Canterlot Princess Celestia!, Princess Luna! were having reports of storms heading in our direction! No need to be worried we are in a area where they can't reach us. Ok your highness. Do you really think their going to make it here Tia? I don't know Luna but knowing Ben he has something planned. Ponyville TOUCH DOWN, TOUCH DOWN TORNADO ON THE GROUND. Location?! Ya I see it too. This things really ripping. WE GOT 2 MORE FORMING. 2 MILES FOR SWEET APPLE ANCRES. Dash, Soarin that's your cue. On it. Ben, where have you been? Twilight asked panting from the run she had. I grinned as I pressed a large red button on the wall. Coming on Apple Bloom we need to get out of here! Apple Jack yelled to her sister under the roar of the wind. Look out! In the matter of minutes 17 tornadoes where on the ground south of Ponyville. Two were entering the Apples farm. Come On! Watch Out!.. Apple bloom yelled. A large metal plow was flying straight at them. They huddled together for protection. But where distracted by a strange noise. Before the could see what it was they were being picked up and sitting on a metal floor. We got them. DEPLOY FLAPS, SPIKES AND THE CANNON. Cannon? They said in unison under the sound from the vehicle and tornado. Coolant cannon ready. Hold it until it hits us... FIRE! A large blue beam shot out of the roofs turret spiraling into the tornado as it went over us. Apple Bloom was screaming out loud as Twilight and Applejack held on to the railing. And the only one who wasn't in a state of terror and panic was Granny Smith, sound asleep on the fuel tank. Just before the core hit us the two tornadoes died. We undeployed to head out back to camp. WHAT IN THE TARNATION WAS THAT? Microwave Coolant. Tornadoes need warm air to live and if made contact to this stuff it can kill them out. Ben do you read, its Spike. What do you got on the storms? Everyone is reporting that the twisters are dying. And is that the bad new...? I said hearing the tone of his voice knowing something bad was going to happen. All the storms are colliding to one nether. Oh No What? whats so bad about that? He said the storms were colliding, they're merging together. And with all the warm air and rotation combine you can get a Supercell and at times extreme twisters some that can reach SF4 or 5. ooh Spike we're on our way back. Stay on the radar and track the cell until it's past the town's limits. Got it Ben. 7 minutes later... After scrambling to get the word out of the storms all seems to be passing. But the sound of Spike's voice makes me feel that it isn't over. We arrived back to the Dow were Rainbow Dash and Spike were watching on screen showing the large storm system. Whats its track? What? Spike said. The track...its direction. Oh... Its heading east about 59 miles per hour. Wait... isn't Canterlot in that direction. Ya but its on a mountain. Theres no way it can make it there. I debt that. Why? This storm or supercell needs warm air to survive and get stronger. And judging by the time of day right now its going to cross over the side where the sun is hitting it. And not to mention any energy that's in its path. Well what can we do? Dash asked. Try to set up cold snap barriers. Try to cut of as much warm air as you can. I'll try to modify the cannon to put out a larger amount of coolant. Ben THE STORM IS INCREASING SPEED. ITS GOING NOW 85. It must of hit one of those pockets. We need to get to the castle and warn them. How were 5 miles out of Ponyville and by the time we get there the storm would be right outside the castle. Hmmmmm well I guess this is the good as time as any to try out the upgrades. I walked over to the TIV placing my hand on the back fuel tank. The vehicle glowed for a second as metal inside was heard moving. Alright everyone all aboard. Wait a darn second. When you came and got us we barely fit in it. Soo how the buck are the 8 of us going to fit in it. Even after almost a year Applejack you still under estimate me. Now without wasting any more time. Hope in... After open the door Apple jacks jaw dropped when the small space became a large room able to hold a house. Holy... Find a set and hold on. Twilight I need you up front to track the storm. Dash I need you to get the cold snaps ready. Apple jack how well are you at aiming. Im the best in the whole town. Hop in the turret, You'll man the coolant cannon. The rest of you just hold on. We pulled in and flew off to Cantorlot. Twilight keep her eyes glued to the laptop watching this deadly storm get closer to her home. Cantorlot Tia I'm getting worried. So am I. By now any storm that would try to reach would die out or get diverted by somepony. What should we do? Maybe Ben knowns something about this. Stranger things are in his line of work. Your Majesty's Ben and the mane six have landed in the courtyard. Landed? They walked out down to the yard to see me,spike, and the six stepping out of a large object. Ben what is this thing? Celestia asked. Its a TIV. Luna pointed out. How did you know that? It says it on the back and wings. Oh, well now that's past we have a bigger problem forming on the side of the mountain. We have been watching the storm from here. We thought it would be moved by now by weather management. Princess this isn't a pony made storm. Every thing that its done it did it self. Twilight stated. You mean its alive? Not really. These kinds of storms form off of strong winds, warm moist air and cold dry air. It's cloud base is so tall that it has a strong cold down draft with miles of warm air in its path to feed it. And the storms energy that it combined formed this sucker into a supercell. And we could expect seeing a tornado outbreak or SF5 but that was 5 miles back. Now that it has the largest energy boost a storm could ever get that can drop a SF7-I How bad can that be? Say your in a ditch looking eye level to a field with a house there. After a SF7 the house would never exist and the ground level would be down to your knees. They stood through in shock of realizing what was on the way. What can do about it? The only way in nature is this thing to keep going up the mountain and hit the lower atmosphere. Dash and other peagus's are trying to set up cold snap blocks to break up the air flow. Soo far no luck, Only slowing it down by a fraction. Where can we put the citizens for protection. The deeper they go under ground the better. The castle's dungeon would do very will. Just then Twilight ran around holding a laptop in her hove. Ummm Twilight how did you get that off the clamps? NO TIME TO EXPLAIN. THE STORM IS ABOUT TO HIT US. Celestia I need you to bring me the coldest thing around here. What why? Before a answer could be said a crack of lightning struck a tire making it exploded in half.. The clouds began to spin as ponies ran out of their homes screaming about what is happening. Twilight go help the others get everyone to the castle. Alright. COME ON EVERYPONY LETS GO. Rainbow Dash yelled directing ponies to the castle's dungeon. Celestia was running up levitating a orb. Ben would this work? A better question is what is it? Its a Chanel ball. Cast any spell through it can increase it by 10. Before anything else could happen a two by four lands right in the ground. IT WILL WORK NOW HURRY. We both hoped in the TIV locking the doors. Celestia ran over to put the orb in the cannon as I deployed the anchors. Ben Its ready. I ran down the steps to the seat of the cannon as the large tornado was nearly 50 yards away. CELESTIA GET TO THE CAB AND HOLD DOWN THE BRAKES. OK I loaded the cannon and armed it to auto stick controls.( Joy stick firing) She's locked and loaded. I said hoping back into the driver seat. By then damage started to pumble the armor as Celestia sat in the passenger seat with a scared and amazement look. I pressed the button firing the cannon sending a white beam in the top of the tornado. The winds howled as a large piece of wood flew right at the passenger door, slamming the lock. ( Im mean really it was a piece of wood traveling at 400 mph.) With out a second pass the TIV's 500 pound door flew open. HELP! Celestia was getting pulled in the vortex barely holding on the seat. I reached out in time to grab her hove. HOLD ON!. I started to lose my grip setting the cannon on over fire. COOLANT RELEASMENT 9O% I grabbed on to her pulling as hard as I could. She held on the door's handle for dear life. Before she lost her grip I pulled her in closing the door behind her. YOU ALRIGHT...? Yes...Thanks.. The winds died done out side as I undeployed. Lets get back to the castle. I turned around and drove back through heavy debris. But to a huge surprise most of the buildings outside the castle were just scard by the wind with soo broken windows and roofs. When drove on seeing that nothing inside the area was hit. Looks like the storm wasn't able to make it. I smiled as we pulled up seeing the others walk out. TIA! Luna yelled out running to her. You alright... Yes Lulu I'm fine. But it wasn't for someone's bravery. She said turning as I walk around the front of the vehicle. Ben! Wait wha.. Luna shouted running over to me wrapping her fore hooves around my neck. Thank you so much for keeping my sister safe. No...problem. She raised her head up to over look me. Like she was about to do something crazy. But stopped seeing that everyone was watching her. Haha sorry...she said blushing. After a 4 hours of cleaning up we meet back at the castle to go back to ponyville. Ben... Yes Celestia This has being bugging me for the past weeks and I want to know. It this event and others were a response to the slime what happens if it gets to strong. Have faith, were there's darkness there's light She smiled at the pleasing answer as we all got back in the TIV to fly back. Before I closed the door I had a felling of something watching me as I drove out. He's getting weaker by the day... When he is weak enough we shall finish him... Said the Demon Rainbow Dash. Chapter 14: River of Slime. Junction City...2 years ago... . How is he Perceptor? Well...His shards are weaking. After the degenerations and saves its been slowly killing him from the inside. Soo in a time matter prime. If I use my last crystal the chance of surviving is low. Is there anything possible to slow or stop the effects, Optimus asked. Yes but... The only way so far that has been able to work is a new holder. From there they create their own shard. And so far no one has been able to hold its power... . Manehatten (Equestria) Present . Hey John come over here. I found something. What now Stan. Look at this stuff. What is that. I don't know, I found a puddle of it when finding an old tunnel. Hey did it just move? HEY ITS STUCK ON ME!... HELP... . Ponyville . It has been a long week. I spent most of the time helping the town rebuild after the tornado outbreak. I sat in the barn of the apples farm placing new roof titles. Note to self...remember to make more building patches. (Building patches are custom regenerator that are able to reconstruct structures) I was staring off into space holding the watch up trying to get any signal from anything. Ben, you alright? Twilight asked walking over. Oh, no, I'm fine it's just that its being too quite for the slime activity. It's like its all gone off some where. Ever scenes the demon Twilight, Apple, and Shy disappeared it's just... Been strange not knowing where they are or what their up to. Ya... And with six of my shards now in the six of you guys I've been getting worried. About what? When I first faced off the figure he took a hard punch then I did then after the Demon Pinkie it showed one of my... Then when the Demon Rarity attacked I struggled to free me and apple jack it was stronger and I was weaker. Soo the more you use the matrix the weaker you become. With you guys now holding a shard they can't touch you but then puts others in harm's way. We can give you the shard back... No, it doesn't work like that. Once the crystal is merged into someone it stays with them untill their death. Then after that I don't know what happens. Oh... Then what can we do to help. Not much stands at this point. Unless we're able to find out where the slime went then this world won't be safe. I just don't see why its so important o keep finding it. I turned to her in a serious manner. Twilight I know that world is use to having a problem come up, fix it or it goes away for good. Not this slime. Even before I was pulled into the portal me and several others were already fighting the slime. When we stopped Shandor and sank the island were the slime came from we thought it was over. 10 years later It came back with a bang. We never saw the end of it. And if this world as slime 50 times worse then any other I guaranty you my bottom dollar it will come back. Twilight. We turned to see Spike running up to us. Enjoy the run spike.I said smirking a grind for the joke. Haha very funny. Twilight you got a letter. Really who's it from. Your parents Really! She ripped the seal off and began to read. Dear Twilight. Its been some time scenes we've written to you and are hoping that your doing well. We're vacationing in Manehattan. Your father went to one of those parlors and lost a good 50 bits and is trying to find a way to make it up. Any way we hope that you can come join us and your brother. Your loving mother Twilight Velvet Well what does it say Twi...? My parents are in Manehatten for a vacation and want me and my brother to join them. Manehattan? Isn't it a big city that's like a island with a tall green statue in front of it? Ya how did you know that? You know the name I use for the city called New York. Ya Well the island it sits on an island called Manhattan with others beside it called Brooklen, The queens, and the Bronx. It seems similar to Manehatten but it's not called New York. Hey maybe its a good time for you to meet my family. Wait wha... Once again not knowing now how in the name of god she convinced me to go. We pack up and went to the train station. When we placed our bags in I walked out and slammed the watch into my suit. Ben what are you doing? I'm not sitting on that thing for another 3 hours again. I said flying off as the train pulled away. A long 40 minutes later. I was sitting down at the train station. It would be a good two hours until Twilight would show up with the bags. Well if its like home I should know my way around the city. I got up and made my way to the streets. It reminded me of new york in 1950 but with some modern age touch to it. I walked down the sidewalk smiling. Seing some place that felt a but like home. As I did most ponies would stare at me and wave. knowing who I was. I had fun for a good amount of the time and yet still had a hour. I stopped to get a drink of lemonade and the tender said it was on the house. Just then a white cart stopped on the block. Looking like a ambulance. Five ponies set off including 3 dressed like construction workers and the other 2 paramedics. I saw the one on a stretcher, A shaded blue with a gray mane. But caught my eye was what he was covered with. A purplish black slime... I dropped my drink realizing it was Dark slime residue. I ran in after the group dialing the Slime blower mark 7B. Which like Mark one from 1989 it was still a huge tube with smaller green tanks but out fitted with Blue Plasma Slime. I ran to the room were the doctors tried to hold down the out of control pony. STAND BACK! I pulled back the lever sending a slurry of blue slime all over the bed and pony. HEY WHAT THE!? I stop seeing that I removed the slime and made the worker a mess. Sorry, Figure you could use some help. Ya thanks. Before I turned I saw something in his mane. It was a patch of slime that was hidden when I sprayed him. By the holy light...Were did yo find this... In a old under ground tunnel. Why? Show me After cleaning up the room of the slime, removing any trace of dark slime we made our way to the Street(manhole)cover on the side-walk with construction gear every where. This is the place, he said as we walked down the latter in to the sewer. I large small hit then passed as we walked down to a big hole in the wall. I grabbed the pke meter to check energy levels. They read a 6C in the scale. What ever you found down here it very strong. I took a step through the hole that showed a bigger square tunnel with platforms on the sides and what looked like train tracks running down the center. How far does this go back? We don't know. We only went about 40 feet until we found a puddle of the slime with a trail behind hit. We had someone try to find out what this was doing here but never got anything back about it. And every other worker is scared to death coming down here. Hmmmmm Would it be alright if investigate the place at times. Well sure, nopony will be down here for along time. Just then the watch beeped. I check that it was 12:00. Ahh crap... I raced out of the hole and flew off. First into the water to get the stank off then through air grades back to the train station. Just in time as Twilight got off the train. Ben? what happened to you, you look like you ran a 100 mile marathon when holding your breath. Oh haha very funny. Ah Twilight there's something I need to tell you later. What? Just then a taxi pulled up. Just...Later... We got on as it pulled us to the hotel. A puzzling thought was stuck in my head. If the slime is flowing under the city then where is it coming from and where is it flowing to... That will be 3 bits. Here you go. We got to the hotel, walked in the lobby as Twilight dashed over to three mares. MOM! DAD! SHINING!. Twilight they all said in unison. It great to see all you again. You to Twilight or should I say princess. Mom... Ah I don't mean to break up the reunion but where can I put theses bags... Sorry Ben. Oh Ben I like you to meet my family. My mom Twilight Velent, my dad Night Light, and my brother Shining Armour. Hello. They at first thought of how big I was compared to them and how I looked. You're the human... (Jesus christ I've been here for 9 months and their still surprised) He's more than that mom.. he saved my life, my friends and even the princesses. Soo you're the one who took the shot into the chest protecting Celestia and Luna. Said the white pony with a dark blue hair. Yes. And the one who came from another dimension. Yes... Soo why are you here. 3 things, 1. It was Twilight's idea, reminds me a lot of home, 3. I'm searching for something. What? You don't want to know. After getting settled in and unpacked Twilight sat down and talked about her adventures to her parents. Mean while was Sitting at a desk in another bed room analyzing the data I got from the tunnel earlier. Come on this can't be right... The city plans doesn't have anything under 30 feet of the surface. Just then Shining walk through the door. Ben what are you doing? Oh just going through data I found but you won't understand what it's for... The Dark Slime. for...and how did you know that? Twilight.. She told me about how you got here, what you do and did. Ya And I want to say thanks for keeping my little sis safe. No prob it's what I do. Soo you think you've found slime yet? I'm not sure. This data was taken from a sewer tunnel hole and this has been the strongest readings I've ever gotten. I plan on going back to the tunnel to get a deeper reading. Need any help with that? We turn to see Night light standing in the door way. Dad? The girls are going out tomorrow to get their hooves done and do some shopping. Soo it leaves me and shining a little free for the time. And this can be a repayment to you for saving my daughter. Hmmmm I don't know. How well are you two with a particle accelerators? What...? The next day We got up, ate breakfast and ready for the day. Twilight and her mother left leaving my and the guys here. I'm still not sure you guys should come with. I've been in places like these that would scared you to insanity. We can handle it. Alright... We got down to the lobby, hailed a cab and went to the site. Here you may want to put these on. It's stinks down here and you'll need to get use to the packs. We're set. We climbed down the ladder back into the sewer and made our way to the hole. At first they hesitated but when through What is this place? Shining asked with a hint of fear in his voice. When I first came her I thought it was an old matience tunnel but it turned out to be a 400 year old subway system. Soo what are we looking for mainly? The workers said they found a puddle of it a few yards ahead. It looked ike it flowed to the spot and we're looking for we're it flowed from. I said pulling out a Pke meter and goggles. After walking for a good 10 minutes. we got to the point where they found the slime. Anything? Strong traces of slime residue but nothing yet. And according to these reading it flowed about 15 feet from its origin point. We keep walking until we were met with a collapsed tunnel. No what. STAND BACK! Me and Shining ducked out-of-the-way as Twilights dad ( Night Light) shot a boson dart at the cracking wall. A LITTLE MORE WARNING NEXT TIME! YA DAD. Sorry guys but look. We turned to see a hole placed in the tunnels wall. At first we thought it was because of the shot but left a breeze through the hole. Fire another one. Te second shot removed the rock reveling a stair case that lead down some where/ See if you can get a scan now. I walked over with a frustrated look and scanned. It has the same readings as the tunnel... WHAT DONT MOVE! Shining had almost stepped in to a blob of slime on the ground. What...? It seem that it flooded up to this point, forcing some through the cracks in to this tunnel. And lucky for us we missed the high tide. We continued down avoiding the slime patch that almost seemed to be speaking. After going down a good 30 feet until it leveled out into steel grades. How far do you think this goes Ben? I said no response as we keep going until we saw a pinkish light. There... We walked down a flight of stone stairs into a large arch like chamber. We then looked down...4 feet away flowed the place were the slime came from. Gentlemen say hello to the River of Slime... They stood there in shock of the roaring river of ooze. Soo now what? Shining asked. We find where its flowing from and stop it. How are we suppose to find it.. unless you want to walk in a slime river. Hey guys would this help. Night yelled out. That'll work. We went through an old hall way that seemed to fallow the tunnel. It was a bit tight for me even with the slime blower but I still made it through. 10 minutes later... Why did we stop.? Dead end. Looks like we're at the end of the line to. We walked out of the door showing that we were in a larger station with rivers. This can't be right. Its coming from a wall? Soo now what..Shining muttered. Hmmmm At first I was stumped but remembered old tricks ghost like to may halustions. Slime it... With out waiting we all fired the streams at the ruble dissolving in a screeching sound. After reloading we saw that it was a large metal door that seemed to be a flood gate. You think we can wrangle that shut? Shining suggested. Maybe... but we need a way to get to the other side tho. I can teleport us. once the gates down. Alright The two of them wrangled the heavy iron gate slamming it blocking the one of the rivers. Holy sweet mother of joesive... We walked in a gigantic black chamber that was flooded with Dark Slime. Soo much slime... This must be the disruption center. Look there's more tunnels. But they're all blocked. Leaving these two the only ones. Ben you all right? Ben? I stood there in disbelief. We were standing in the labs of shandor island. I turned to see in the back was a giant water fall of dark slime. Alright guys...lets seal that gate. We walked over to the huge flood gate that separated the water fall and the tunnels. But an uneasy feeling was in my mind that this had happened before. On 3 1...2...3... They fire two particle beams when I hosed it down to slam the gate shut. CLLLAAANNNNSSSHHH... The gate slams into the slime. But the unexpected happen. Ah Ben why is the slime rising?! OH NO(SHIT)! Before we could say anything else three large blobs rose for the slime. Forming into three 25 foot tall monsters... Just then the gate starts to bend out from the strain of much slime on the other side. RUN! We made a wild scramble to the tunnels barely dodging the monsters. LOOK OUT! I quickly grabbed Shining out of the way of a slime blob. We ran to the tunnels. SHINING GIVE ME SEE YOU THROWER. OK I put the pack on full power and slammed back the flood gate but with slime squeezing through. Melt and Weld! We fired away at the door as hard as the pack could welding the gate to the rails. We need to get out of here. BEN WE HAVE A PROBLEM Night yelled out, THE HALLS ARE FLOODED. That leaves one option left. I said turning to the track where the river flowed. Are you insane... what if the gate breaks and we don't make it in time. DO YOU HAVE ANY BETTER IDEAS... As an answer the gate started to leak at the bottom. Time to go! We hoped down into the tunnel and booked it. Ben...what happenes...if the gate breaks...and we're still in the tunnel.? Shining tried to say under his breath when running. We'll quite literally become one with the flow... And what what was that noise?! The flood gates had broken off do to the sheer amount of slime now flowing like a raging river through the tunnel. GET UP TO THE SURFACE! We hoped out of the tracks back up the old stairs and through the tunnel. ITS GAINING ON US! THERES THE HOLE! We dashed through but I stopped at the hole taking of the slime blower. BEN WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! Night shouted out climbing up the ladder. I CAN'T LET THE SLIME REACH THE SURFACE. Pack self-distrust in 10..9...8... I tossed the pack off and the middle of the hole and ran to the ladder. . Back on the street . Twilight and her mother were walking back for shopping talking. Soo Twilight why did you bring him to our world? Well when I went to the mirror world and first meet him I was little freaked out, confused and curios. And I felt some how more safe around him when me and my friends were in a helpless time. Really now is there any thing else why you brought him here. Twi's mother said smirking a grin. Mom... What I just figured you did because you felt special to him. I do as a friend plus I think somepony already has his take... Hey is that dad and Shining? They turned to see Night and Shining scrambling out of a sewer hole. They ran over to them. Honey whats going on... Just then I hoped out of the hole. Ben what are you... FIRE IN THE HOLE! On cue a large explosion erupted from the hole shooting dust out into the air. Catching the attention of other ponies around. Ben what the hay happened down there? A old dark memory returning. We found the source of the dark slime. Its flowing under the cities in old tunnels. Ok then what was that blast. The tunnel that the workers broke through was getting flooded I set one of the slime blowers on self destruct to seal the hole... Is that what you meant when you need to tell me something later. Yes...but now we have a big problem on our hands... The slime is flowing again... Chapter 15: Across from HomeIts been 4 weeks scenes me, Shining and Night had discovered the flow of dark slime under the city of Manehatten. After sealing the hole to the tunnel I've tryed to find a way back to the river to find out where the dark slime is coming from. Even Celestia and Twilight are worried about finding the source... But after the past events something buried under ice comes back to life with a roar... .- Ponyville...around December on earth... .- It was snowly like insanity. Twilight and the others were in Sugar Cube Corner enjoying mugs of hot chocolate. Boy oh boy this year winter wrap up in going to be the biggest one ever if it keeps snowing like this. Your darn right, I can barely keep my fields clear enough to get the darn dirt seen. And all the poor poor animals and under all of that snow. They be alright Fluttershy,they know that you'll be able to help them when you can. Just then a rumbling sound with bright yellow lights stop by the door. Seems that Ben's here. I open the door letting a cold wind blow throw the store. Hey guys enjoying the weather.I said smirking at the joke. Hi. Ben the usaully. Hey Pinkie, ya but this time more sugar. I'm probible going to do a all nighter again. I've been busy keeping the towns roads and paths cleared of nonstop snow. I even modifed the TIV to have a large front plow with tracks on the back axles ting to help keep the town flowing in the harsh cold. Soo Ben any sign if this is a no controller again? I checked the doppler and it all points to a natural accuring snow storm. Well I better get back out before it gets to deep to drive in. See ya later Ben. Twilight yelled out under the wind. Rainbow Dash flew up to the window as I drove away. You know guys even tho he's is stuck here he seems be feeling like it's home. Your right Dash. Dispite the hard ship he's gone through here he just seems like the normal day pony orrrrr persion. Twilight said. Lets just hope that he's able to take this force out of Equestria...and wheres Rarity and Spike?! I think she said something about going out to find snow stars and needed Spike to melt the snow away. WHAT!? .- Somewhere outside of town .- Rarity, in the fact of the extreme weather and cold took the liberty of going out to find snow stars. She said something about creating a FFrost Dimand lineof dress. Ra...Rarity...are you sure we should be out here...its freezing out heeeerrrre. Come now Spike this snow isn't going to melt it self Rarity said in a giant over coat. After walking for 30 minutes they find a ice cave. Here we should find some good eat this spike. She hand Spike a green emeral the size of a melon. Fine,but only becuase I'm hungry. He eats the crystal in one bit letting out a colosel fire ball through the tunnel. Revealing several snow star crystals. Good job now Spike She said chipping off shards. After a good 15 minutes the winds start to pick up outside. Rarity we need to go, the storms getting worse. She didn't answer because she was fixed on getting a shard the size of a tire out. In a moment Spike...just can...you...help me get this...OUT Fine. He slowly breathed a trail of fire melting more of the ice away revealing more and more of the crystal. Ahh Rarity...this ground is...! Before he could say anything he ground caved in to the crystal. Rarity are you...! What was that Spike...! They both stood there in shock of what was in the crystal. WE NEED TO FIND BEN. .- The Fire House .- I had just pulled inside to garage and hoped out. I was freezing to the bone for the cold and after all I was in a metal vehicle for about 4 days streight and had only one heater vent working. Note to self fix heater and air condtioner. I walked upstairs to be greeted by a nice warm blast of air. Before I could sit down to relax for a bit the doors on the garage doors swung open. ( You have the main 2 doors with 2 smaller doors built in it) BEN YOU HERE? I heard from the main garage Spikes familier voice. Not wanting to yell I got on the loud speaker. I'm up in the kitchen Spike. After saying that the door swung open showing Spike on top of Rarity with udder scaredness and shock. What happened to you guys it looks like you saw a monster I said wih a chuck. WE DID! You sure, cause remember last time when you thought a slender pony was outside your window and when I got there and shot it it was a tree with a broken sign on it. Rarity stood there in frustration of the memory as I took a drink from my thermis. But that's not all we saw Ben. Then what did you see.I said still drinking. We saw another human... I eyes shoot wide open making me send my drink fling into the window dropping the container. WHERE...?! We hoped back in TIV and drove back to the spot were the figure was found. At first if someone would say something I would take it lightly to moderite but with the word human in it makes me go on high alert. This is the place. Are you sure you saw one? Yes,but it was... Before she could say anything we stood in front of a large blue crystal with a tall dark figure and a small one inside. I stood there in shock of what I was seeing. For the first time in two years I see someone that I thought I would never see. Spike eat this and let it rip. Umm ok... He eats a red stone and lets out a stream of fire melting the crystal down to free the figures. It seems that they fell into a stassis before being froozen. We need to get them back to the lab NOW. How the one can't even fit through the cave. Please god lets this work. I siad aiming a blue rod on my arm to the figure. Ground Bridge: ACTIVIATED Ben what are you doing. A blue stream ingulfs the figure with a green grid making it smally shrink down untill it was gone. BEN WHAT DID YOU DO!? Come on lets get back to the fire house. Still In shock of what happened we pulled into the fire house. When arriving Twilight and the others were waiting inside. Twilight how did you guys get in here. You left the doors unlocked. I rolled my eyes in frusteration. Any way we came to if you can find Rarity and spike. Why would you do that Twi. Just then Spike and Rariy past me and gets hugged by the others. Now thats past I need to work. On what... Follow me. We made our way to the basement lab where a large portal formed in wthe ground bridge tunnel. Ben you got the portal to work? Not really. Its power source is very weak and can only be used in a emergency but thats not what I wanted to show you. We walked over to a large table with a metal figure. Ben what is that. Remember when I told you about the transformers. Ya. ANDTHISISONE! Pinkie said hopping on the robots chest. Yep and this is a speaical one. He's a Dinobot named Swoop. A what bot? Before any thing the robot slowly rose up rubbing his head. Awww what happened...? Easy Swoop you where in temperatures that had put you in a critical zone. Ben...Ben...BEN! The bot jumped to his feet picking me up in his hand. BY THE ALLSPARK YOU'RE ALIVE. EVERYONE FEARED THE WORST. WE'VE BEEN DOING EVERYTHING IN THE BOOK TO FIND YOU.. Well you can see that I'm quite fine let alone better. Just then he saw 6 horse like figures and a little dragon around me. Ahh Ben what are those and where are we?! We're in a world called Equestria and these ponies are who inhabit and are my close friends. This is Twilight, Rainbow Dash,Apple Jack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Spike, and Rarity. Their names. Okay... But speaking of where we are how did you get here. Me and the Dinebots where in Iacon. The city was under attack. Shockwave captured Bumblebee, Jazz and Jetfire. Optimus busy with Megatron. Even I was having trouble under standing what he was saying. Swoop, take a deep breath and clear your thoughts , tell us what happened. Ok... Megatron thought that with the inactivity he could take down Iacon. And was hopping to take take the Matrix of Power from you. He threatened to kill her and use her as Shockwaves lab expirement. Me and the team fought our way inside was to free her and stop Shockwave. When we got to her Predaking and others attack us. Grimlock went to get Shockwave but smashed the space bridge controlls sending all of us here. For about a Deca-cycle we were trapped in think ice and went into stassis. And to here and now. Who is her?/HER! I ran over to the other figure that was about the size of a teenage girl with dark brown hair,a pink shirt with a black coat and a pair of machanic pants. WHAT WAS SHE DOING THERE... I said with rage in my voice. Megatron thought that if he had her you would come to him. Ahh Hello we don't want to intruped your chat but who is Her...? Dash yelled out. I turned back to see the figure lying still on the table. She's...my sister...Lisa. .- The next morning... .- Mom...Dad... any one... ( Lisa's P.O.V.) I slowly opened my eye...I couldn't remember what had happen before I blacked out. I looked around still adjusting to the light. I saw that I was in a large white room with a few shevels, stands and a large black door on the one side. I turned to see a someone sleeping in a chair beside me. He was wearing a grey hoody with black pants that had two blue strips down the sides. Ben? ( Back to Ben's P.O.V.) lisa! I snapped out of my sleeping and hugged her tight Ben what happened, where we and how DID YOU GET SOO BIG? Growth spurt but that doesn't matter now that your safe. But where are we and where's mom and dad? Just then a loud crash rang throught the building as Swoop yelled. Dang it why can't I ever stop knocking things over, I'm just as clumsy as Bulkhead now. I'll be right back. I said slowly walking out the door. Just get some rest. BEN! Soon Lisa was alone again in the large room. Just then she could here my voice. WHAT...WHAT...WAT IS GOING ON DOWN HERE! Sorry Ben we we're just tring to help Swoop through the door. Twilight why didn't you just use the hanger doors... and Apple Jack grease isn't going to help him get through either.. What?... ( Lisa p.o.v.) WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON DOWN THERE? Hearing the loud nosie from outside and couldn't resist myself for seeing what it it was. The sound of my brother yelling made me even more curious. I opened the door to see a small hall way. I looked and saw a bigger room the seemed to be a living room, a kitchen and what looked like lab equipment. Where the hell am I...? I walked past the labs and saw a flight of stairs that lead down to the next floor. Right as I get there I can hear more talking. Alright Swoop hopful this will help and after this Apple, you get to clean the grease off him and the doors. I had a puzzled feeling of who or what Ben was talking to. Who is Apple and Swoop? At first I thought it was just Ben talking to him self. I slowly walked down the stairs barely seeing any thing because of the cover wall with a few holes in it. I found a big enough hole to look through. WHAT THE HELL!? I looked to see a giant robot standing in the doors with 2 horses watching as a smaller robot tried to pull him out. Come on Ben this world hasn't made you lose your touch yet... (I unfold the helment) Shut it Swoop and help me push. I was in shock at that it was my brother wearing some kind of blue armor, Ben Exuse me but do you think your doing... I turned around to see two more horses one yellow with pink hair and the other white with purple hair in a rob. Ummm running! I got to my feet and ran down the stairs barely missing crates GET AWAY FROM ME... ( Just then I turned around to see Lisa running for the exit door. Only to be stopped by Rainbow Dash.) Hey whats going on here?! I stopped and ran under the over hang missing more stuff. When Ben flew right in front of me. Whoa, whoa, take it easy sis I can explain every thing. I slowly started to walk backward to another door. No,no thi-this can't be real there can't be giant robots or talking ponies or YOU WEARING ARMOR AND FLYING! Ok,ok here I'm taking off the armor now just clam down. No its just a dream or better yet a nightmare.I said running to the door. HIthereohareyouthenewhuman!?IhearedthattherewouldbeanewhumaninPonyvillebutIdidn'texpectittobeBen'ssisterLisa!OHthiscallsforaparty!. I stood there in disbeleif that of a hopping pink pony with a poofy hair called my name out clear. I lost all train of thought and fell back. Was it something I said? .- About 4 hours later... .- Lisa..? Lisa...? LISA! WHAT!? BEN! It's been a long cold day. Finding Swoop and my sister in a crystal of ice and now tring to get Lisa to stay claim for 5 minutes. Here you haven't eating for hours. I siad giving her a plate of food. Ben...where the hell are we and what happened to you... Well do you want to the short or long version of the story cause ethier way you go it's the same. Fine... Well for starters you're not on Earth and you not even in the dimension of earth. Your in the side universe called Equestria where these poines inhabit the land like humans on earth. But theres only one universe... Not really you came for D0 or Dimension 0 the out side world that no other world can enter but me. The Ben you known for the past few years is a clone that is to keep the balance at check so that way I can be here. WAIT you mean you send your time all on this world... Not really. I live in D1 the second earth where the multiverse is connected to. It has parallel worlds or completely different plains of pyshics. This is the 63th one of the group now. I came here through a portal that I couldn't get back through and have been stuck here ever scenes for the past year. And have grown a liking to this peacful place. But how did I get here? You were kidnapped through from D0 to D1 by Megatron, a transformer. Yes they are real in one world. You got saved and sent here with the Autobot Swoop by a accident with a space bridge. But you can send us back right...? Its not that simple, I barely have a working ground bridge that still doesn't full work. Untill I can find something powerful enough to power it you and Swoop are stuck here. Ummmmm Ben there maybe more then just the two of us...Swoop said through the door. .- At a the crash sit .- Shockwave we've located the other dinobots trapped in a ice cave but one area seemed to be removed. Predaking said. Execllent, they would be much of trouble now. Now locate our missing target and destory anything that stands in your way. Yes sir... Chapter 16: Beast WarsOne year, 4 months,2 weeks and 5 days...Its been since I was brought through a portal to this world called Equestria. Life for me and the citizens of the world have grown a part to me in being with them in peace... But in the hardest of times Evil forces have pledged the lands making me be this worlds new protector. Just 4 days ago Rarity and Spike made the biggest game changer since the portal. Now with the Auto/Dinobot(s)Swoop and my dearest sister Lisa in this world tells me that the chance of returning home are higher than ever before but with a monsteress twist... The Fire House I was in the lab talking with Swoop. So...Swoop has any thing else changed during my absence on earth...? Well surprisingly nothing much had happen. The attack on Iacon was the only thing for the past years. And during that you all have been tring to find me. We tracked the cross rip with the energy surges on Griffin Rock to try to find you but after we found it was a X-portal we had to find another way. I don't blame you guys. In a way I went through three different portals from there. It's a nice place but nothing like Earth. Just then a static sound came from Swoops communicator. Swoop...Swoop to you read...Thi..s...is...Grim...lock... Wait the others came here to...? Grimlock this is Swoop I read you. SWOOP WHERE THE SCRAP ARE YOU...!? I'm in a base with Ben. BEN!? HE'S HERE... Grimlock this is Ben just tell us where you guys are. Me don't know...It has lots of tree's and red little hanger... They must be at the Apples farm. Grimlock we're heading to your locations just stay where you are. JUST GET THE SCRAP OVER HERE BEFORE LITTLE HORSE FINDS OUT... Well Swoop...You want to fly or take the bridge? I'll fly I need to stretch my wings and get some air. All right. Call me when you get them to open a bridge. And Swoop use the hanger doors this time... I open the doors as Swoop transforms into his alt form and flies off. About 5 minutes later...At the apples farm... Grimlock you guys here? Swoop about time you got here. Little orange horse thing been nagging and nagging about us in warm room. FOR THE LAST TIME I'M A PONY AND GET THE BUCK OUT OF MY BARN!... See...she's naggy. Any way we need to find a way back to the ship and stop Shockwave and Predacons. They came here too? Yes, You didn't see them? I was thrown from the ship when we crashed. Ohhh.. We need to get back to ship and stop them. First you guys need to get back here and explain somethings. Umm... was that useless Magnus? Grimlock said with a pissed voice. No, lets just say he's an old friend that you'll be happy to see. Who...? He dude need that ground bridge now. Hearing the call I open a portal. Swoop are you sure it's not trick. Come on guys He said walking through the portal. They looked at each other for a moment and one-by-one walked through the vortex. After a bright flash of light they looked to be inside a ground bridge tunnel then in a large lab. What the scrap is this place? Just then I turn around. Well you could call it my home away from home or headquarters or base. They all froze at the sound of my voice. BEN! Grimlock yelled out changing into his t-rex mode and roaring out his voice box. When he was doing so the other ponies came down the stairs holding their ears down at the loud noise. BEN WHAT WAS THAT...! Twilight was stopped in mid sentence staring at me and 5 robots. Well thats the 6th time Twilight's been shut down mid word. Wait there's more of them? Slug said with frustration. Yes this world is inhabited by them... Oh.. Well for starters glad to see some familier faces after all this time. And two how did you guys get here. We Dinobots we're aborad Shockwave's ship rescueing Lisa when a strange goo hit bridge controls. Then got sent through portal. Wait was this goo a dark purple with a a blood red in it? How did you know? We thought Dark Energon. That was one of the worst slime's you can ever get, but its impossible... It was only here but... Ben what are you saying? Dark Slime...Dark Slime infected the controls. Isn't that just black slime? No, Dark Slime is a rare form of it. The liquid of pure evil and death itself. This world has large amounts of it by a unknown source. If it was in Earth1 and brough you guys here then something got to it. What we do? We need to find the space bridge that brought you guys here. Shockwave's ship Sir the primary thrusters and navigation systems are full working but the central power core is depleted.(Darksteal telling to Shockwave.) Scrap...Not matter. We will be able to restore power by draining this worlds power. Just then Predaking comes through the door. Sir, I've scouted the near by areas and no direct power sources or any sign of the other 5 Dinobots. knowing that over muscled brain brute Grimlock will be looking for the other two Indeed but no matter. Shockwave turns to a large screen with a map of the land. We have located 5 different targets that have a strong enough power charge to power the space bridge. He then sees one that is pulsing. Interesting, this source seems to be in already use. Get Skylynx, Backbite, Stormbreaker and Bombshock ready for deployment. YES SIR! Shortly after all the predacons lined up on the flight deck. LISTEN UP WARRIORS THIS IS POSSIBLE THE MOST SIMPLE TASK FOR ANYONE TO ACCOMPLISH Predaking yelled out to everyone. We don't know whats on this backwater planet but we can't risk being detected. Darksteal,Skylynx you two will recover the source in the northern quadrant but be careful the area as a large magnetic sheild. Stormbreaker,Backbite,and Bombshock you will head to the location of the pulsing energy strain. I'll take the eastern targets. And remember if anything gets in your way DESTROY THEM. NOW TRANSFORM AND FLY! They all change into their beast forms and flies off. The Crystal Empire It was a normal day at the palace. Shining was doing his normal day works/patrols. Candace was sitting in her room reading books on how to be one with her people. Two guards that stood at the castle's gate passing back and forth to each other. They quickly turned to see two giant figure's heading to the city but low enough to hit the ground. HALT! The one guard yells at the dragon like figures. How about we CHANGE...! The guards turned to each other as the two beasts was eye level to the gate and began to transform their shapes. (Into Skylynx and Darksteal) Predaking said we can destroy anything in our way right...soo lets start with these two! The two guards ran for their lives shooting two magic beams used to warn the guards of a threat. Darksteal...Skylynx this is Shockwave. Your target is 4 clicks due north of you location and I'm hoping that the element of surprise is still intact. Ummm... it is sit don't worry. I expect so. Back inside the castle ponies were running for cover knowing that the signal tells of a major threat approaching the palace. Shining was racing back to the main doors of the castle where dozens of guards had huddled around the crystal heart along with Candace wearing a sliver coated armor. SHINING! Honey! Shining ran up to his wife's side waiting for the attackers to come. On cue two large dragons flew straight at the group stopping 15 yards way for the couple. STAND STRONG EVERYPONY! The two dragons looked to each other and laughed. You thing you like organics can stop us! HA your just as pesky as scraplits compared to us. Everyone stood in confusion and shock what the tone of their voices. NOW LETS SEE YOU FIGHT HAND TO HAND. The two jump in the air transforming back into robot form with blades on their arms. WHAT ARE YOU?! Shining yelled out. WE ARE PREDACONS! The guards took aim throwing spires and swords at the two bots just feeling the attack like it was raining. After throwing everything the bots slammed their fist adgents the ground causing the small army to fall to the ground, some running for their lives as several crystals to crash to the ground. Candace falling but caught by Shining. The two Predacons slowly approached the two. The dark blue bot holding a blade right at them and the other holding his hand to his head. Shockwave we have located and captured the first power link. Excellent now take them back to the ship and prepare for further instructions. Yes sir. They turned back to see the two ponies in a defence pose in front of the heart. WE WON'T LET YOU TAKE THE CRYSTAL HEART! You fools that crystal is a battery compared to what we're after! Just then Dark steals Eyes glow green with a grid beam shooting at the two. The crystal heart and Shining were glowing a deep yellow-orange when Candace glowed a bright green. Come here little horsey... Candace stepped back in horror as a large hand grabbed her. LET ME GO! Shockwave we have the first target...returning now. The Fire house labs I was sitting at the computer screens trying to find Shockwave's ship. Forget it Ben. Shockwave's ship has been built to be so undetectable that even Soundwave has trouble contacting it. Swoop said walking to me. True but I won't stop till I get you all back home. Just then Lisa walked up the controls stairs carrying a sandwich and water. Hey sis. I thought I would bring you something since you haven't eaten for 3 days...and whats with all the oil drums? Oh Grimlock and the others just like to have an energy contest. Smirking to Swoop. HEY SWOOP YOU COMING OR WHAT? Ya,ya I'm coming Grimlock. You never told me on how you can stand with these kind of things. Well...if you do what I've done for the past 300 years then you would know. WHAT?! Ben your 15 years old, you said you traveled to worlds for the past 4 years. Well on some worlds the time lines get very blurred. When I was on Cybertron I was a 5 foot tall organic to 30 foot transforming robots. And when I got in one of my most toughest battles I knew I had to get a new look. What? **Sigh** You know how I turned the watch and had the armor and the pack on. Ya Well that s just one of many transformations I have. Like? Well such as my full armor that I use for combat, a flight suit, this normal look and a tall 30 ft special changer. Soo your like Ben 10..? Yes and no. I don't have all alien transformations. I have more of a build and install tip of way. But the idea of it all being controlled from a watch came from Azmuth. Just then a large rumble echoed through the building as a oil drum flew across the ground. What was tha... Judging by the size of that shack I would say Grimlock had just won the first round. WHAT THE BUCK WAS THAT?! We turned to see Twilight and Spike walking across the lab. Hey Twi. That was just the Dinobots cheering on a victory...In oil drinking. Okay..Well I stopped by to give you this. Twilight turned to levitate a letter to me. Who's it from? We didn't check. I open the letter and began to read the writing. Dear Ben I've wish your presence at Cantorlot as soon as possible. I am also aware of Equestria's new visitors and wish to meet them in person. From Princess Celestia. p.s. Have you ever heard the name Shockwave? I turn back to the girls. Well what's it say? Lisa asked. The princess wants me at the capital as soon as possible. And wants me to bring you and the Dinobots. For what? Twilight did you say anything about the name Shockwave? No,why Then we have a problem. Get the girls to together and meet back here. Alright. HEY GRIMLOCK! WHAT! YOU GUYS WANT TO GO ON A TRIP UP A MOUNTAIN! ARE WE WALKING OR BRIDGING!? BRIDGING! ALRIGHT! WHEN ARE WE GOING?! YOU'LL KNOW WHEN YOU HEAR IT! (takes long drink of water) Alright Lisa... I don't know how much ground bridge expireiecn you have but lets just say after you go through it the first time your bones will feel very shaky. After ten minutes Twilight comes back down with the others as Grimlock tries to chug one more drum then smashes it on his head. Such disgusting brutes Rarity muddered. As the bots walked in. Well...BURPPPPPP.. We're ready. Alright let's go... I pull a lever down sending a charge through the cords creating a portal in the tunnel. Now guys you have to remember that these ponies don't normally see something bigger than them let alone be so...try not to step on one. I'll call when you guys can pass. Al...BURPP...right We enter the ground bridge as everyone hesitated. Oh come on... the one thing you'll feel is your bone's vibrating for about 5 minutes. They looked to each other for a moment and walked through. Canterlot Celestia and Luna were waiting in the throne room. Sorrow and worry was on Celestia's face. Anger and sadness on Luna's Don't worry Tia knowing Ben he's the only on that can help. Luna said trying to comfort her sister. Your highness Ben and the others have arrived. Aright. Celestia said with a little hope in her voice. They got outside to see the mane 6, Me and Lisa. Ben. Celestia...I said hearing the sorrow tone. oh..this is my sister Lisa. Hello... Hello Lisa, and my I be the first to be honored with the sibling of a great hero. Ummm thanks... You don't get that lot back home don't ya. I said with a chuck. Soo... what brings us here on this cool day. ( it was 4 days after a huge snowstorm) Well I do not know what this dire time is about but somepony does... Two guards walked out the door carrying another pony. One that seemed to be in the state of horror. SHINING! Twilight yelled running to her brother. What happened... Shining slowly lifted his head at the sound of Me and Twilight's voices. Twilight...thanks celestia your still safe. Shining...What happened. First lets all get inside before we freeze out here. Luna stated. After getting settled in a break room I sat across Shining holding a Pke meter in my hand. Alright now..just tell us what happened. The crystal empire was...under attack... BY SOMBRA?! No...by two metal monsters...We thought it was dragons untill they changed. Wait changed...you mean transform? You could say that...they took Candace saying that she was the first.. The first out of what? I..I don't know... we thought they were after the crystal heart but said it just as small as a...battery... One said the name... What was the name? Shockwave... Shining said before passing out. Me face froze even dropping the meter. This is why you wanted me here isn't it. Yes and that's why we need your help. Shining said they looked like metal dragons that transformed right. Ya.. Then those we're Predacons. Predacons? Twilight said with interest in her voice. Predacons are ancient cybertronians back before the transformers came. They went extinct about a hundred million years ago. But how are they here? Back when I was still in the Transformers world the Deceptcon scientist Shockwave cloned DNA or in their case CNA from old redacon bones. Making the race become alive again. But what worries me more is why they kidnapped Candace. Just then a guard ran into the room looking around and finding Celestia. PRINCESS! GUARDS REPORT SEEING 6 LARGE METAL DRAGONS COMING FROM THE WEST! Celestia and me faced each other as we all dashed outside. We got out and paused for a moment. I spawn a pair of ecto goggles to view better. Seeing six large beasts coming closer. One that had a huge wing span worried me. Predaking... I said pulling the goggles off. GRIMLOCK WE NEED BACK UP NOW. I yelled at the watch. ON THE WAY! You guys may wan to stand way...back.. Just then a large portal opened as 5 large robots jumped out yelling ready for battle. They looked to see nothing happening... Ben...where's the fight...Grimlock said with a hint of anger slowly building. It's on the way. I said pointing tot he direction of the incoming predacons. PREDACONS! Grimlocks voice turned from anger to complete rage. Scaring even Rainbow dash. Just then the six beasts land 40 yards away from us. The larger one transforming. Well...well...well..this just gets better we have all the power sources together. Predaking said slowly eyeing the group then to me. Well isn't this a little surprise...the great hero Benjamin come to the little ponies rescue. At that moment my hand tightened into a fist with rage. And now we will destroy this backwater planet... and even you can't help with. MAYBE NOT JUST ME! I yelled as the five Dinobots stood beside me with rage in everyone. PREDAKING...! GRIMLOCK?! I HAVE A LONG SCORE TO SETTLE WITH YOU! Grimlock said pulling a large sword in his hand. DINOBOTS! TRANSFORM! On cue four of the bots began to slowly change forms. Slug changed into an animal with three large horns on his head. Snarl into one but with two large panels down his back. Swoop was floating in the air flapping two large wings and screeching. Sludge changed into something like Snarl but instead of a panels he had a long neck with spikes. DINOBOTS! Grimlock yelled out raising his sword making the others roar out. ATTACK! The two sides charge at each other with all their might. Grimlock and Predaking's swords colliding in a rain of sparks with blow after blow Swoop dodging fire for Darksteal and Bombshock. The others in a beast brawl to each other. Slug transformed in mid-air slamming a huge club into Skylynx head knocking him to the ground. The battle was horrific our the others as un blasts made craters in the snow and earth. We need to evacuate the area before the fight gets ugly. We ran back to the main doors. Predaking notice us fleeing and takes a hard blow to Grimlock's leg ping him down. Slamming his sword into Grimlock's arm crippling him. GRIMLOCK! Swoop yelled out fling straight to him. Only to be hit hard by both Skylyxn and Dark Steal. SWOOP! Snarl and Sludge yelled in unison to be struck from behind. Leaving Slug to defend them. WE NEED TO GO! Lisa yelled under the battle OH NO YOU DON'T! Predaking yelled out sending a fireball at the main doors collapsing the arch way. Well...looks like I get a little prize! Everyone backed up to be stopped by the pile. I was 15 feet away from the towering beasts firey jaws. BEN GET OUT OF THERE! yelled Twilight. You want to know something Predaking... I've been here for a year and haven't had a good combat fight... Looks like the drought and YOU ARE OVER! He lunges his head right at me. I stood there and smirk a grin. Just before he could touch me I throw my right arm at him. But in a turn sends him skidding back. Everyone looked in shock at the giant shaking off pain from the blow then turned to me. My entire arm was covered with parts of my armor letting me take the impact of metal on metal. YOU KIDDNAP AND TRY TO HURT MY FRIENDS...BIG MISTAKE! I slam the watch down. A green grid engulfed my body. Two large objects spawn beside me. ( TIV-X and Ecto 62) My eyes open as a flash of light reveals me in the power suit. But then the bike starts to split. The front of TIV opens like a giant mouth and pulls me in. Soon a large blue grid surges over me and the vehicles. Parts of all three start to change places and merge as I slowly grew in size and shape. The turret of the TIV becomes a large shield with windows with the hydraulic as a spike. Soon I stopped changing and stood in front of the group. I was a towering 30 to 40 foot robot. I was a tall dark gray figure (due to the TIV's paint) with dark blue patches on my head and legs. My head still the same as the suit but larger. The wheels of the TIV lined down my legs in two pairs. ( Something like Optimus Primes but the wheels are side ways) The front flap and light bar went across me chest. The Ecto had turned into a large cannon on my arm with the engine now a giant proton accelerator On my back the two main side flaps had combined into a single blade with the spikes as a handle. Grimlock grinned knowing that when I go in transformer mode I can really bring a fight. Predaking changed to robot form pulling his blade. TITAN OR NOT I'LL STILL CRUSH YOU! I activate my face plate and visor. LETS FIND OUT! I pull the blade charging at Predaking hitting blade on blade. Both of us broke the connection. Before he could make a blow he was raise up in the air in the jaws of Grimlock's alt mode of a giant T-rex. Is it me or has this just gotten 20% cooler. Dash said as everyone turned to her. He throws him at Darksteal heading right at us. Even after all those years we still got the touch. I deactivate the mask. From the Sea of rust... ..to the Pits of Kaon! We lock hands and head but each other. Just then we both get hit by a large energy pulse. Screaming in pain at the sound as Shockwave Lands in front of us. The rest of the Predacons circle around us. Shockwave holding a large fusion cannon and Predaking holding a large sword at our chest and heads. Sonic blast...you like to play wild cards don't you Shockwave... Most predictable since our last encounter Benjamin. As you can see our presents in quite unusual in this world. Seeing you live among these...these illogical vermin... Such a new level of disgust in my view. Well...you know me Shockwave your the first con that I kicked their ass with a steal door. And brings me to the next question...Why are you attacking this world and where is Candace. The Equine is in my power cells.. With its power I can power my Space Bridge and leave this world. But it's power is not enough to power. The First... ..out of four targets. And thanks to you I have the remaining three right here.. He said pointing to Celestia, Luna and Twilight. Alicorn magic...its the most powerful force in the world... Indeed and with only two more to power I can use the last to give Megatron the power he needs and give me a new test subject. I sat there in shock and anger. I wasn't going to let him take them. In the corner of my eye I saw Grimlock trying to say something. Ben battle move number 4827 Whirl Wind of blades.. Right... ON YOUR FEET YOU PIECE OF SCRAP! Predaking ordered. The other Predacons lined up behind us holding blasters in the ready pose. Ben...NOW! In a split second the head the robot opens up sending me in the air separate of my mega suit. I was now hovering in mid-air with a sliver plate suit connected to two wings. NOW GRIMLOCK! Grimlock picks up my body and throws it at the group of cons. ATTACK! AND GET THE EQUINES! NOT ON MY WATCH! I yell out as I pull out a gun that seemed to come out of no where and fired. Grimlock and the others transformed in their beast modes and went all out. Shooting fire all over each other. I turned to see Predaking picking up Celestia. Stop swarming you bag of meat! HEY YOUR HIGHNESS SCWARM OUT OF THIS! I yelled send a fist right into Predaking's chest dropping Celestia. The force of the hit sending him flying into the castle wall. I quickly land on the ground in time to catch her in the last second... Ben...I... She was at a loss of words as I put her back upright. Just save the thanks after this is over. I quickly turn back and flew to my lifeless suit. In loud noise of gears and sparks I reconnect and drew my blaster cannon. GET DOWN! All the Dinobots ducked down in time as beams of energy shot out of the tubes at the predacons. I need to get one of those... Rainbow Dash said making ever one turn to her again. After sending about 6,000 plasma shell round o the ground I knew that they were finished. Shockwave seeing the grave site quickly ran but was caught by Swoop. Now I'm only going to say this once and once only.. Leave this world NOW! Even now you still don't think the logical out comes...that end up coming right behind you.. What... Before I could say anything else a claw grabs my shoulder and sends a long blade through my chest... BEN! NO! As you can see even now you denied the outcomes.. I stood there breathless as I slowly fell my knees Come Predacons we have what we need. What shale we do with the Dinobots sir? Send them to the holding cells with the others...After we return to Deceptacon City we'll disassemble them for parts.. Yes sir... Before I could do anything I black out an only hear the sound failure. DNA DAMAGE REPAIRING. 3 hours later... Look he's waking up... Give him some space sugar cube. I slowly opened my eyes. Dash, Pinkie, Rarity, Apple, and Fluttershy were standing around me. Ben you alright? I didn't answer. Knowing what had happen and that Shockwave got what he wanted. Where...wheres the others... They were taking to the ship. We barely got you back here to the labs in time before the repairs were finished What... I stopped as Rainbow slowly pulled my shirt off. Showing a large scar down my chess. Claw marks on my soldier's. I try to sit up but get put back down by Fluttershy. Don't move Ben...your seriously hurt... Before I could say anything a noise came from the watch. DNA REPAIRS CRITICAL. LIFE COUNT DOWN AT 96 OF 100. We all stared at the watch as a dark red 96 blinked on the screen. Ben... What does it mean... of 100? Knowing that I couldn't keep a secret I had to tell them. That is my life count down. It tells how many times I've died and repaired to life. They stood there in shock. Realizing that I have died and returned many times. But that's not all of it... When...when I us a shard It takes a life from the count. You guys have 6 of the count. You mean...some of those are the deaths of others you saved... Yes.. But now we have a more dire situation. We need to stop Shockwave be for he leaves. But Ben you're in no way shape or form to go back in a battle like that. Rarity said. Rarity...listen... I've been in this world for not even two years and I've already done things that I'm not willing to give up...now and never... The first time I fought for this world I made sure to do it till my last life...and I guaranty you that.. Working all the strength in my body to stand. I know that this isn't our worlds fight but... WE DON'T CARE... We're willing to help in any way possible to rescue our friends and save Equestria! I grin at the girls courage in the face of pure death. Alright...Lets SUIT UP! Shockwave's Ship ~ 4 hours before launch... Sir the power couplings have been installed and are ready. Exellent..Prepare for take off in 2 cycles. Yes sir. Mean while in the holding cells... Twilight,Celestia,Luna,and Candace sit helpless in a power cell. Knowing that this maybe the end... Is there anything we can do Princess?... I'm afraid there is nothing Twilight... The feeling Celestia had been beyond thought. Luna and Candace watched at the fact that they were finished. Across the halls Grimlock and the other Dinobots sat in defeat. Grimlock trying to hold him self up with a pipe then looked at the princesses. You want to know something. He said with an almost civil voice When we were in this position we thought that all hope was lost. That this maybe our last moments. But it all changed when he came. Soon all the princesses were listening to the giant. We Dinobots own lives to Ben for saving us. He opens has chest just enough to show a matrix crystal. The princesses eyes widened in the site of Ben truly give his life to others. When he came we rose up and fought back...with him leading us all to victory. After his speech Luna was the first to break the silence. Back at the castle you and Ben had a connection to each other. When he first came to Cybertron we though it was a big joke. We thought little human would be crushed on first day. But when we were done, running out of energon as Megatron and others came in. Then he came in and sent Megatron's tin can back to the bronze age. And when me and others were stuck in the Sea of Rust with insectacons all around. He sent them to the deeps of the acid pits. And on my take he knows how to really put down the hammer. All the girls hopes were returned and greater than ever. And knowing Ben...he will find a way to save us.. Outside the Ship Me,Lisa and the others hid out side Shockwave's ship. Ben remind us why we're hiding 40 feet away from the ship. Just wait...in any time Stormbreaker will open the ships main door for his normal fly about. On cue Storm walks out,transforms and flies off. We quickly hoped in the ship before the large door closed. We realized that we were in a large hall way with many halls leading to where ever else. So...whats the game PLAN!? Dash yelled out eager to start. Alright I'll head to the bridge and try t stall out the controls and hold the space bridge. Pinkie Pie,Fluttershy and Rarity will locate Twilight and the others. Rainbow Dash, Apple jack and Lisa I need you to be their cover. Oh but Im not much of a... RARITY! Alright...but if my mane is messed up it's your cost. Alright lets MOVE TEAM. GO RAIDERS! Pinkie Pie yelled out as everyone cover her mouth. We start walking to are points when Lisa stopped me for a second. Ben... she said giving me a tight hug. Be safe.. I grinned at her. I will. Space bridge control Room Connect them to the power core and be quick. The sooner we get off this disgusting world the better. Predaking ordered. Twilight and the other princesses were slowly losing hope. Hold strong everypony. Luna said trying to hold hope. The Ships Vents ( Why the hell they were in the vents is a great question) Pinkie pie are you sure it this why? Of course silly can't you here them. After walking in the vents they finally hit the grad and fell into the holding cell. What the SCRAP?! Oh hey guys. Lisa..? how did you guys get in here. And where's Ben. We came through the main door. Ben went to stop Shockwave and the predacons. How bad was he hurting..? It counted to 96. By the Allspark... He won't survive them... That's why we came to rescue you guys and the princesses...s...where are they?! Shockwave already has them in the power core room. We need to get to him NOW. But how Boss we can't get the controls. OHHHH,ICANGETTHEM! Soon Pinkie was at the control panel shooting that Proton thrower at full blast. YOU DID IT! WE'RE FREE! Now grab our weapons and lets go... Grimlock was stopped by a strange noise from the other cell. What is that...? If it was the answer a two large metal creatures walked up to the door. One looked like Swoop but a bit bigger and with two heads. The other was smaller ands stood on two legs. Someone you guys know? Never seen them before. Will this isn't the why we wanted to meet you guys in the first way. The Reaptor said. Soon both two transformed into two bots. The names Slasher..mostly Slash. This is Strafe...He doesn't talk much. He's what you can a Bot of action. Sounds like me. Grimlock said with a chuck. LETS GO. Outside the Bridge doors I was right outside the space bridge doors. Knowing the risk of being over whelmed I knew I had to take the room by force. I go to dial the watch but don't change. TRANSFORMATION DAMAGED AT 68% Damn it. It was from the first battle that I was cut through the chest by Predaking. Now I wanted to return a favor. System over ride code 10-939 CODE ACCEPTED... Soon I was covered again with my robot suit. I'm coming for you guys... I smash through the door sending arts flying everywhere. Shockwave turns to see me standing in the door holding a the Ecto62 that had turned into a large cannon pointing straight at Shockwaves head. BEN! The princesses cheered in unison. But how... You forgot Shockwave...I'm a human.. And humans always find a way. Before I could say anything something pins me to the ground by the knees. Twice in one day Benjamin I must say you really have gotten soft, Predaking snorts. He lifts me up soo that Shockwave is aimed at pint blank range to my chest Any last words... Turn to see that the tables have turned. A few...DINOBOTS ATTACK! Soon Shockwave was attacked by the bots beast forms. Some where in the ship In another cell. Stood the greatest threat Equestria had ever faced. (Tirek's p.o.v.) I sat here in a metal holding cell. How I came here only Celestia would know. Captured my pathetic metal creatures. And from my defeat by that pest Twilight Sparkles... When a time comes for me I'll gain the power to destroy Equestria and... Just then a small puddle of strange liquid forms in the cell. What this now...? He walks up and tests its power. Hmmm so...much power in such a little substance... He opens his mouth and begins to draw the Dark Slime's raw power into him. Back in the control room Give it up Shockwave your out numbered. Quite predictable but you under-estimate on my current position. We stood there in confusion for a second. And I plan on leaving...even with out the others... He pulls the lever sending a large burst of light. Twilight and the others collapse under the volume of energy. Soon a large portal opened outside in front of the ship. Predacons...Deal with our guess.. IM GOING TO SEND YOU BACK TO THE SCRAP AGE! Soon the Predacons and Dinobots were back in battle. Lisa and the ponies were trying to stop the space bridge before it kills the others. BUCK WHY WON'T THIS WORK...! Because its a one pull system. And only able to be stop by removing the power source. I ran to the chamber were the others were losing their magic's hold. STAND BACK! They quickly step back as I start punching the main door. My hands were slowly cracking under the pressure. When I finally got the door open an alarm came on. POWER CORE BREECHED. ACTIVATING NUETRON FIELD. Soon a lazer grid covered the hole. I try to reach through but an incredible a pain shoots through my hand like acid on skin. Ben...don't... LIKE HELL I AM! Using all the strength I have I walked through the lazer into the power core. I was already at a danger point of power. Ben... HOLD ON! I scoop all of them up and try to cover them as much as I can. Hold tight girls. Partially running through my head I jump through the field again with ever more pain. Soon I was lying on the floor with the 4 princesses on me. Thank you Ben... Go find a safe spot. Without hesitating they run under the controls. I start to get back up but then get smacked down by Shockwave. Such illogical heroics...Now only of you were part of Megatron's army then you would have been second in command... Other than that idiotic Starscream. And I see your down to 96...how about I make it to 100% BEN! NO! Before Shockwave could fire an unknown voice comes from the room. HEY SHOCKWAVE.. Soon a black beam of energy hits shockwave's cannon. Causing it to shatter like glass. We all turned to see a tall dark figure in the door way. He looked like a militar but the upper torso was buff and he had the head of a bull.( And a LARGE white beard.) Who the hell are you...? The world knows my name.. AND TREMBLES AT THE SOUND OF IT.. I'm am TIREK THE DESTROY OF EQUESTRIA! The tall figure was the size of Swoop but still short of me and Grimlock. But how..! I defeated you! Twilight yelled out in shock. Indeed but it seems that some came for me.. The one-eyed cyclops. AND NOW THAT I HAVE A NEW SOURCE OF POWER...IM UNSTOPPABLE!. This can't be...he controls Dark Slime... Hmmmm it seem that even you have power that matches that of Celestia... Which means I going to HAVE IT.. BEN CATCH! Grimlock yelled throwing his sword to me. When I grab it in mid-air. Before anyone could say anything. There I stood in my normal power suit . But this time the suit had slash marks, holes and burn marks but looked the same. The helmet had a huge gash mark across the fore head. And despite the damages it works. You want our powers hmmmm well EAT PLASMA I raise the sword up as it engulfs in a blue flame. It glows for a second as I send a hyper wave at the beast knocking him back. YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT VERMIN! Shockwave I know this is something not ment to be but... On it. Just get him outside. Grimlock...remember the smelting pits. How can I forget. Well time to do that again...! I said sending to Tirek to keep him down. How we only have 2 of 3. HEY PREDAKING WANT TO FIGHT. If it's a cause to save my creature then so be it. I open my chest to grab the matrix. Just then Tirek gained his strength back. HEY TIREK..THIS WHAT YOU WANT. I yelled holding the Matrix above my head. GIVE IT TO ME! Catch me it you can. I smirked as I flew off. To my surprise he was feet away from me. Flying through the halls I made it outside where Grimlock, Predaking and the others waited. Almost...theRE...! I sharp pain hit me from behind knocking me off-balance and landing into the ground. Foolish human. Do you really think you cold stop ME! I laid on the ground staring at the giant. In his hands was the Matrix with unlimited power of the universe. The ponies and Lisa watched in horror as Grimlock and the others (except Shockwave) grinned knowing what was about to happen next. ANY LAST WORDS HUMAN... Just three...GRIMLOCK, PREDAKING NOW! Before Tirek could say anything the two large bots ram him from each side. Dropping the matrix. I quickly scoop the matrix and put it back in my chest. I dial the proton pack to combat the dark slime's power as Grimlock and Predaking try to hold him in place. We soon began to lose him. ANY TIME SHOCKWAVE. WE'RE LOSING HIM! Activating Ground Bridge...NOW Shockwave opens a portal right behind me slowly pulling all four of us to it. ON MY COUNT GUYS! I pull a wrangler on him as the bots struggle to hold him without being pulled into the vortex. 3...2...1...NOW! In one big heave I pull back on the proton gun as the bots toss him to the portal. NO I WILL NOT BE DEFEATED AGAIN! Tirek dug his hands into the ground as he slowly inched closer. DAMN YOU JUST DON'T STOP TALKING... I say switching to Slime blower and start charging a large slime mine. I smirk a grin as I send a mine the size of a refrigerator at him. NOOOoooo... Close it Shockwave... Shockwave closes the portal as we all take in at what had just happen. Where did you send that portal to...? The location is in this worlds polar regions. Good. Lets hope he catches a freeze there... 5 minutes later... We were stand outside as Shockwave,Grimlock and the other bots walked out. You have no rights to be in this world. You are to return to the primary dimension and never to return. If found here again you will be destroyed. Understand... Afremitive. Predacons let us leave.. but first. Shockwave moves aside showing Darksteal and Skylynx caring six energon cubes. Do not ever say this to anyone... Predacons let us leave. They all walked in closing the door, soon a large portal opened in the air. Soon the thrusters roared to life send a strong gust of wind every where as it raced into the portal as it closed. After ten seconds of silence we looked down at the small pile of energon. I grinned knowing what to us it for. Come on guys lets get you back home... Wait a second Ben.. Twilight said. Let me do a teleport spell...you've done enough today. I could only grin as a purple light engulfs us. In a split second we were standing in the lab. I insert all the energon to the ground bridge. Ben you sure this will work? The space bridge controls may not be fully complete but with this energon to the main controls should give it the power it needs. I pull the lever as the portal opened. ENERGON CONSUBSTION ACTIVATED. On cue the three large cables glow in a dark blue light as the portal begins to change color. Alright guys time to go. Soon the bots walked out of the hanger to the bridge... Snarl,Sludge and Slash were caring drums of oil. Lisa was riding on Swoops shoulder. You don't mind if we can take some of this on the way..? I could only smirk at Grimlock. Sure... I hop down and change into my robot form again. From the pits of Kaon... I said holding my hand out. To the Sea of Rust he said grabbing it as we both did another head but. See you later... Same.. I change back to my normal form as the bots walked through leaving Lisa for a moment. You sure you don't want to come? I wouldn't think about not going. I said giving her a tight hug. But I'm needed here to stop the Tirek, the slime and anything else to protect them. I said turning to the group. After this I may not remember but I will remember what you did. I grinned as she slowly walked to the portal tunnel, giving back one last wave good-bye. After she passes through the console shouts out. ENERGON RESERVE DEPLETED Soon the portal closed. I sighed in relief knowing that my friends and family are now back home. A tear starts to form in my eye as I turned and walked back to the ponies. I don't get it. Why did you stay and not go? Twilight asked. I thought you wanted to go back to home? Luna asked Yes I did want to go back... it was what I've wanted to do since day 1. But I'm needed here. And nothing is going to change that. Soon tears formed in some of their eyes as they all ran to me. Even Celestia, Luna and Candace shed a little tear away. Catching my eye. I saw that.. I said smirking a grin at them. I want to thank you Ben for saving me, my sister, my niece and my dearest student. Anytime. But I'm afraid that this joy will not last long. Equestria's great enemy has return... Some where in the Arctic He thinks he can defeat me... She thinks that I can BE STOPPED... With my new power I can bring Equestria to its knees... Destroy the elements and Celestia forever... Watch out...I'm coming for you Ben... Chapter 18: Tuefort Roadhouse( To under stand whos talking I made a chart for people and classes. # = Medic, * =Sniper, ! = Scout, $ = Spy, . =Heavy,& = Soldier, % =Demoman,^ = Engineer, _ = Pyro) Canterlot. Me, Celestia and Luna were in a state of confusion and thought. But Ben how can we stop it when he or... it comes? Even with your kind of power you could lose against him. I know the stacks are high but I'm the only one who can bring him down. Your world has already gone through enough as it is. But Ben you don't know what going up with. If it was able to defeat Tirek when he had more power then all of Equestria's magic then it will be more then... ALERT! ALERT UNIDENTIFED PORTAL ENERGY CODE 59 The watch beeped out. Is it Shockwave again? Celestia asked. No. He came from D57. D59 is a completely different world. Then who or what lives there? I don't remember... Red's Base. ( Engi's p.o.v.) [Because I like engineer] I was in the lab with Medic trying to figure out what the strange black substance was. Medic had injected several kinds of medicines and other liquids to see what the reactions was. (I can't make the medic do his German voice so bare with me on normal words...) Engi can you bring me substance 57392 ^ Alrighty doc. When me and Medic were busy in the lab the others were busy doing what ever. Scout and Heavy found it amazing on getting high with Medics Quick fix medgun. Soldier was outside practicing rocket jumps and testing his new base jumper. Spy was in his smoking room. Sniper was on the roof trying to shot any birds that would annoy him. Pyro was down in the bases boiler room. ( Why in the name of Irene he is I have no idea partner.) And Demo was drunk as usual. % Ohhhhhh I'm going to lick ya... Cause I'm the demopan... ALERT! We all turned from what we were doing to listen to the intercom. Our Intelroom as been BREECH! We a second to spare we all go our weapons and raced to the intel. When me and Medic get there we found the others standing in front of a large green portal. And knowing what happened last time with a portal with stood our ground as I got a sentry built. Fire House Lab It was a few minutes after detecting the portal. Me, Celestia and Luna flew back to the fire house as fast as possible. Taking the service lift down we got to the lab. To my surprise Twilight and the others where there. Rainbow Dash and Applejack had their proton packs on. Pinkie with her party cannon. ( like it would work in a fight..) Fluttershy was behind them next to a barrier holding a trap and arm pack shaking out her wits as Twilight and Rarity stood ready to use magic. Twilight? since when did you get down here? I felt a huge surge of magical energy. I seemed to come from here. But when we got here you weren't here with the groundbridge open. but it had a red and blue color. You think its the dark slime. Celestia asked. Don't know. When a tech portal is infected by a supernatural energy it takes the color of the substance. Like when it turned dark blue because of the energon. And we're dealing with a black,purple and red slime. Soo what is causing that? I don't know. We all stood there wondering what to do next. To stay and guard the portal. Or go in and see what's there. A few minutes pass as we waited for anything to happen. I was upstairs working on a quick little RC probe that I could sen through the portal. Finished I though to my self. I made my way back down to see an unexpected surprise. Big Mac, Shining, and Soarin wearing 3 of my full-sized proton packs standing guard. Each of them was wearing a proton pack based on their color too. What the...how the...what are you guys doing here? The girl asked us to come and help watch Shining stated. Nice place Ben. I bet you can really fly around in here easily Soarin commented. Uhhh...thanks... What you got there Ben? Twilight asked. It's a little RC probe I made to... What's RC? Remote control... I'll send this through the portal to see what's awaits us. I set the probe in the tunnel, take a few steps back, and slowly inch the rc car into the portal. As I did they all watched the main screen as a flash of light ment it went through. Red Intelroom. After the probe slowly went through the camera started to malfunction. As I slowly drove the probe further we could hear voices. Hey...En...what the heck...i...s...that...? IT...S...A..BOM...B...FROM TH..E...BL... WHAT...?! We watched as a small red can destroyed the camera let alone the probe. Ben...what was...that. Fluttershy asked when curled up in a chair. I just stood there think of what had just happened. Alright. Twilight, Big Mac, Shining, and Applejack will go through the portal. Celestia and Luna I need you to work the bridge controls. Alright Ben. For the rest of you I need you to stay here for when anything happens when we're gone. They all nod as we stepped to the ground bridge tunnel. I stop and dial my full power suit as the others geared up Shining and Mac had proton packs when Twi and AJ cared supplies. Alright Keep your cloak on until I say. They shack their heads as we made our way to the vortex. And in a flash of red Light we went through. Back at the Base For a moment we were all curious. I looked at what use to be a small car with a camera on it before it meet Demo's grenade. $ What do you think it was? ^ I don't know but I want to know who or what sent it. Before we could ask the portal flickers as what looks like a person walks through. Wearing an armored suit. ! What the hell is that...? ^ I don't know Scout. & Is it from the Blu's?... . Yent, to shiny Soldier. ( Ben's p.o.v.) There I stood in the portal. Looking at the 9 humans. One was fairly skiny wearing a red t-shirt and baseball cap, One had a chin belt around his body. The others were also different to the eye. There was a construction worker, A strange doctor, A soldier whose helmet was covering his eyes, One seemed like he was Australian and the other French. One had an eye patch with yellow bombs down the sides of his chest and the other was in a hazard suit. Under the face mask I was smiling so big that Pinkie Pie would try to do better. Well isn't this a surprise. I said in a joyful tone. My God guys you haven't changed. They all looked at me in confusion. $ I might as well be the first to ask but who are you. Oh I forgot you guys never saw me in my armor. I retracted my helmet and face mask. As I did so their faces turn from being confused to complete joy BEN! They all said in unison. With in a moment I get swarmed by everyone as Heavy picked me up. ^ Hot damn boy we did know it was you. I guess the suit gave it the answer... $ Indeed. .Come lets enjoy this moment with drinks. % EYE I thought to my self that I forgot that they were connected to D2 and one of the teams searching for me. Before we stat to walk away I quickly jumped down from Heavy and ran back to the portal. Is there something wrong Ben? No but I forgot the others. At the word others they turned to each other in another confused state. Alright Twi,. you can show your selves. In a flash of purple light the ponies that wasn't there seconds ago and stands. Pyro and soldier ready their weapons at the surprise. Easy guys they're my friends. They we're in shock and complete disarray. Guys I want you to meet Twilight Sparkle, Applejack,Shining Armor and Big McIntosh. or you can call him Big Mac. AJ stated. ^ Well ah...nice to meet you. Engineer said with a two toned voice. After 30 seconds of silence the sound of growling stomachs from everyone. ^ Well I reckon we go on and grab some grub. I'm down with that. Taking the fact on how fast some of them got over the fact of talking,colorful ponies that came out of a portal was still a bit surprising. But what do we do with ze portal? I'll put it on lock down on the other side. The Others are waiting to get the green light. * Well if there more you might as well send them to.. Sniper groaned. Alright guys your clear. On cue more came through. Soon standing before us and the RED's was Rainbow Dash,Soarin, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity. $ Umm are they all females? I turned at Spy giving a awkward look at his question. Spy... $ Yes? Just don't... % EYE are we just going to stand here all day lasys or are we not hungry. & I agree with Demo & The body need to be in its ultimate form for war. War? Twilight said under her breath as we all walked to the mess hall. 7 minutes later... We were going all our in the mess hall. The guys enjoyed their meals and practical jokes with me as the ponies sat on the table beside us. I don't know guys but I have a strange feeling that they aren't to be trusted. Come on Twilight. We've been in this place before when his sister and darn robots came. Ya AJ but you do have to remember that we are in another world. Just then Medic walked out holding a large tray of Burgers..! THEY EAT MEAT! In a large gasp every pony looked in horror as I was about to eat a hamburger. Ba...Be...Ben... but how...can you... I turn to see the horror in their faces. Remembering in their world they don't eat meat. Wo...wo...wow...take it easy guys this isn't what you think it is. I said holding the burger in my hand. I know what your think and it's not that... This is Fake meat.. It looks, smells and taste like real meat but it's not. The patty I'm holding now took 6 months to make by chemicals. And if you don't belive me try it. I slowly hand the burger to them. Still in utter shock they don't even move. Until AJ steps up and grabs the burger. Are...you sure it's...not REAL MEAT...? I nod as she slowly descends to take a bite. The others watch in horror. Fluttershy,Twilight and Rarity nearly hurl. As she chews the sandwich. Her eyes shoot open. But to everyone's surprise it wasn't in disgust or horror. Instead it was in a wonder. This tastes...tastes...tastes...AMAZING! In a shear second she finishes my burger. You all want to taste this. Demo brings over a small plate of the fake meat. They take a moment to realize what their about to do. Soon they slowly take a bite and get filled with wonder. Happy... Ben this is incredible! Twilight mumbled. After the short conflict we soon got back to the fun. Soldier and Demo went to a drinking contest. And of course Demo wins by a landslide. Scout tried to arm wrestle Heavy but ended up having his arm blent the wrong way. MEDIC! .HA, YOU ARE NO MATCH FOR ME. I walked over and proposed an offer. Set them up big guy. HA You think you could bet me?! Strange Natasha and Vintage Sandvich says other wise. Soon Heavies eyes shot open in excitement. .Alright then...Set them up. As I lock hands the others join in around. ^ Alrighty then in 3...2...1...GO! On cue me and heavy go out in full force. Give up...yet... .Never! Soon Heavies veins start to show. .DOCTOR! Yeah? .CHARGE ME! With waiting Medic hits hm with the Kritzkrieg. Soon his arm was glow/sparking red energy. But in the final push I smack his hand down. . NOOOooooooo!.. Wow Ben I never knew you were that strong. Twilight commented. Thanks... . Deal is deal. Treat Natasha good and enjoy sandvich. You can keep the sandvich big guy. . Thank you... On the other side of the room Medic and Engi were discussing about the strange slime they found. After coming to a conclusion they slowly walk up to me. ^ Hey a Ben...there's something we need to ask you. Sure, what is it? Well earlier yesterday at Tuefort I found a pool of strange black ooz. I stood there frozen that once again Dark Slime has played a role in the event. Show Me. Shortly after We arrive at Medic's Lab where several canisters of Dark Slime stood. Where did you find this...? It was near our respawn room in the intel room. ^ We found more at Doublecross and Gold rush. We've done experiments on it and so far nothing planned or thought of. Like... Well reaction's of other chemicals and objects. And so far nothing. ^ But when ever some one would say something Negative or bad then it bubbles even more up. ^ We had three jars,each from the 3 places. But after the test we got nearly 17 full. Knowing their interest of the slime I broke it to them. You guys are familiar with Black slime right? Of course that's why we did the testing to it. Well this isn't Black Slime... its Dark Slime. What? Just then Spy walked in. $ Then what is this...Dark Slime? Well I'm myself am trying to fully under stand it but I'll tell you what I know so far. It's a form of Black slime but is more potent. Normal Slime can't remove it unless you can keep a stream on it for a good 5 minutes. It's what I've found to be the Blood of evil. It's so toxic it can lead to death and possession. ^ Well where did the darn stuff come from? That's a three million dollar question. All that I know is that it came from the ponies world. It has a large amounts of this stuff. There's more of it then Mood and Black slime combine. After saying what needed to be said the only look on the three Red's faces was utter shock, disbelief and confusion. PREPARED FOR DEPLOYMENT! The announcer shouts out of the intercom . OH COME ON... WAS JUST ATE!... Heavy yelled from down the hall. ^ Well I guess we odd a get to work. $ indeed. I'm coming with you guys on this one. In case there is any sign of slime or if you need some extra fire power. I MUST SAY HAVING A POWERFUL HERO ON THE BATTLE FEILD WOULD CHANGE THE TIDES IN OUR FAVOR! After making our way back to the mess hall I say that Big Mac and Heavy were at it arm or...hoof wreaslting. When the others geared up for another battle. ^ Well... I don't know if you'll fit in one of Scouts shirts but... What's this now? Rarity asked walking over to us. Oh well I'm going with the guys on this and apparently I don't have clothes that... OH, well If it's clothes that the problem then I can handle it. Do you have any red fabric? ! Umm Yeah, It's in the storage closet. Rarity could only smile at the large crate of fabric. Give me five minutes. Shocking the team even more by her speed and magic. Rarity manages to make a complete uniform for me. ^ Impressive. Why thank you. After a few touches I was ready. I walked out wearing all nine class figures. Two straps of of pin grenades, A ammo belt, two pistols, a flare gun. On my back was a shotgun, a shovel and a smaller version of Sniper's rifle. ^ Hot damn boy you look like you look like you can take on an army. I could only smile at Engi's comment. I'm so adding this into my transformations... I chucked. = Mmph Mmhp Mmmmmmph. = Mmmp Mmhp Mmph Mmmph. (Translated: Oh come onnnnnnn. Not my Flare Gun.) $ Well now that the moment has passed let's get to work. We all gather up at the teleporter room. What's that? Twilight asked In a curiosity of the odd device. ^ Well it's ah my teleporter. ^ Designed and built by your truly. But at about the ground bridge? She said turning to me. Well they don't prefer having it because of how complex it is. But you can say this is a smaller down graded version. On top of the stairs was two rotating disk like objects with a red vortex emitting from it. One by one we entered the teleporters. Soon me, Medic and Engi were left. ^ Now I'm most sure that a battle field is not the place for cute littles ponies. Soo you guys will have to stay here. But you can watch us from the monitors up stairs. Soon Medic and Engi teleported away leaving me and the girls. As I stood there waiting it to charge back up I could only see a a little smile from some. Catch yeah on the flip side. Soon I was teleported away. Fire house-Equestria ( Luna's p.o.v.) There stood me and my sister. Waiting for the others to return from the portal. I do hope they are ok Celestia said in a worried voice. Soon a royal guard came running down the stairs. BEN! YOUR HIGHNESS!... Where's Ben?! Yelled the exhausted guard. He is busy with something important. I tell him. What is the problem? Something Is happening at the Crystal Empire... Tuefort I was finally in the spawn room as everyone was getting ready. Heavy walked up to me caring a large minigun. .Here. I do not know if she works still but... I pull the trigger as my Assault Cannon minigun spun to life. Purrs like a kitten (chucks at the comment.) MISSION BEGINS IN 10 SECONDS! ^ Just like old times Ben? Just like old times... 3...2...1...BEGIN! For the next few hours. Back at the base the ponies were busy trying to find something to do. Shining and Big Mac were in the storage room looking a th weapons and giant bombs on carts. Applejack was admiring Engineer's builds to the fact of a true Texan. Rarity once again was busy making more cloths but for the others. Twilight and Rainbow Dash sat in the sirvalince office watching both teams go at it. And once again Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie were in the kitchen. ( weird how much they like to cook?) In the Office Twilight watch the screens we worry plastered to her face. She saw the Reds and Blu's ding everywhere. Please be okay Ben... On cue a screen showed me in the Blu's intelroom with Scout hold at appears to be a glowing briefcase...? WE HAVE TAKING THE ENEMY INTELLIGENCE! Right before we could breath we see 3 rockets explode Me in pieces of meat everywhere. On a screen behind them was a score bore style screen were my face had darkened out. Twilight was in over drive to think what she can do. But before that Dash points out something. Twi look. In that respawn place. Inside a large vortex was spinning in the small room. On Cue I pop out of nowhere completely fine. I ran out the door like it was nothing. In a split second I kill a Demo who nearly killed Scout down the stair. ! Thanks man! 2 seconds later... VICTORY! After a nice day of work we gathered at the spawn. Demoman beginning drunk as usual past ou in his favorite corner. Even if I've been gone for years it all seems like I never left. Da. Engi walks in setting his builds down and slowly starts playing a tone on his guitar. Suddenly the ground shakes like an earthquake. What was noise? ^ I Don't 's? Lets go check. We get outside to the courtyard were a Blu scout was all the way up a pole with large gash marks on his legs. & HE'S HERE TO SPY ON US! Soldier yelled out pulling his Rocket launcher ready. WAIT! To everyone's surprise I slowly walk up to the pole and bring the Scout down. B! NO! LET ME BACK UP THERE! B! IT'S IN THE GROUND Everyone was surprise of what the Blu Scout wanted. What did he mean Under ze Ground? ^ And why is it all quiet now? We all turn to th place were once so called generator was standing. I thought to myself what's happening. Trying to remember a place where this happened before...Perfection, Nevada... EVERYONE DON'T MOVE! But without thinking Demo stumbles out of the room crashing bottles everywhere. % EYE what are we...burppp...doing.. ! DEMO SHUT THE HELL UP... % What. Out of nowhere the ground starts to push up under his feet. In one big blast of dark a gigantic creature shoots out was it eats demo in one bite. ! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!? GARBIOD! % HELP ME! AHHHhhhhh... & What the hell just happened? ^ What was the black thing? Garbiod. A what. Garbiod's ae something like a mutated worm. But these worms are 30 feet long and have lived longer then the dinisours. Using sonar to track movement. I've gone at them before with the 3 others to rid them in Nevada and Mexico. Soon Demo stumbles out of the respawn. % HA! THE NO EYED BASTARD DID REALLY GET ME! % Hey...where's MY F***EN BOTTLE! Anywhy...these thing's are not to play with. Just a watch beeping off will bring them to you. But what's more interesting is that It was more black. They are always a tan, shaded white or gray. ^ What do you reckon we do? First find and Kill one. After that find out what's making them black. Do you zink that it's ze dark slime? Well...in time Medic we'll find out. Guy's we're going to need a lot of stuff. ^ I'm on it. Demo can ou make a bomb strong enough to match 3 points of potassium? % Yeah A few hours later.. 9:37 pm We were gathered outside the Tuefort base. Engi had finished the greatest Garbiod attacker. A sentry gun hot wired to 3 minigun guns and 2 stick bomb activator. Soon Demo walked out caring a small barrel containing his most powerful bomb ever made. % I remember that this is a one time use. So only one shot.., ^ Well everything is ready. All we need is bait. ( awkward silence) We all turned to Scout. ! What?...NO! WAY! ( 20 seconds later..) ! Ummm...Ben remind me why I have these cans and bottles on me? It's simple. With your speed and sound they would be coming from miles around. ! Oh... ^ Stay sharp green bean you got company. In one large rumble a hill of moving dirt speed to Scout. ! Ah guys ANY TIME NOW! Wait until it reaches the surface before we can. Scout could only watch as a the hill shot up in a cloud of dust. There standing out of the ground was a 30 foot long worm With 3 smaller tenticals hanging out side its mouth. HIT HIM HARD! Soon a wall of Bullets, Rockets, Grenades, and Needle's ( because of medic). DEMO THE BOMB! % EYE! Demo yelled chucking the giant bag of explosive at the monster SNIPER YOUR UP! * On it mate. With one pull of a trigger sniper sends the Garbiod into fling pieces of flesh. After the large screeching noise of its death we gathered around what use to be it's head. ! Sniper..I think you took the words Head Shot to a whole new level.. * You got that right mate. I walked up to the dead creature. I've never been in arms length of one that did try to eat me. Just by looking at it had streams of dark slime covering the giant. ^ So that's what dark slime looks like? Yeah. But this is a first for me seeing something completely covered and undercontroll. I scrape off a sample of the Garbiod blood that was infected by the slime. When everyone celebrated the little victory Engi was in a state of worry. ^ Umm guys I hate to be the one who always brings bad news but... ^ You all may want to take a look. He holds up a screen showing ten littles dots and a map of the area. ! And what is that? ^ Well you see those dots...it's us. And the black blob is the dead Garbiod. A how is that bad? When he zooms out all our faces drop. On the map showed dozens of red blobs % There's so many... Look they're all heading to one place... I my voice nearly drops as the screen shows at least 40 worms heading to the RED's base. With out waiting I slam the watch to try to reach Twilight. Red Base. ( Twilight's P.o.v.) Everyone was In the mess hall. Bored as heck. Its been 6 hours since we came to the new dimension and haven't seen much. I was just about to leave and join the other but was stopped at the sound of an incoming call. Twilight you there? Yes Ben what's your problem? Twilight? anyone there. Ben I'm right here. Does any watch theses anymore? Must of lost connection during the fight Great... Well if anyone can hear me get the others and get on the roof NOW! Giant Garbiods are heading to you. GET TO THE ROOF FAST!... Connection lost... Darn what could have happened? What's a Garbiod. Knowing Ben that the tone in his voice means business. I race to the mess hall. Where Big Mac was trying to push a cart with a strange object in it. Guys we need to go to the roof NOW! Everpony turns to me in confusion. Why... Dash asks with a sarcastic tone. Ben called. And it's very urgent. Then what's the darn problem? I don't know. He said something about something call a Garbiod... On cue the ground starts to shake under our hooves. ALRIGHT LETS GO! We quickly race to a nearby stairs to get to the higher floors. I stood at the bottom of the steps watching 4 giant creatures burst through the floor. TWILIGHT GET OUT OF THERE! I run up to the others as we made our way to the top floors. I darn hope Ben is coming. I though to myself under all the screaming and crashing. But in a split second it all stops. TWILIGHT! GUYS WHERE ARE YOU!? WE'RE UP HERE BEN! Ben quickly kicks the door down and rushes over to us. I even give him a little hug for a second. God I'm happy to see guys are okay. Ben what happened down there? After I sent the message we raced back to the respawn and teleport back. But Engi had to repair it. When we got here everything was quiet... Soo those thing's aren't here any more? We checked and nothing but holes in the floors and walls. We need to go back to Equestria... it would be great being back home... Alrighty now... We than began to come back down the stairs were the others were busy cleaning up. * Giant bloody wankers... Tiny baby magets... _ Mmmhp mmmmph (Translated: Sons of Bitches) AHHHHHH! We all jump as Medic came yelling from his lab. Ben, Engi and Demo raced to him. When opening the door it was a horror show. ( Ben's p.o.v.) It was a mess. Like a level 5 anchored ambusher. Medic was kneeling on the floor were all the jars of slime were. But instead was a giant hole. Grabiods must have heard something here. As Medic analyzed the Jar he wondered to him self on how can they have found and clean every single jar. & He Ben you may want to take a look at this. We walk over to where Soldier was. In amazement we saw the entire hallway destroyed. We saw that they dug downwards. HOLY SHET! We turn back to see Heavy and the others standing in the door way of the devastated hallway. Me not cleaning this up... ^ Wait isn't this the way to our intelroom?! Where the portal is... Twilight said with a terrified voice. Come on... We slowly made our way to the intelroom. It looked like something out of Meet the Pyro. ^ DAMN IT... Engineer yelled looking at his destroyed sentry. Ben do you think?... God I hope not... Me and Big Mac will go through and check if its okay. ABSALUTLY NOT! AJ yelled. We need someone to go over and see if it's okay... I'll go first. But... I turn to see all nine of my friends waiting. I know your base is a junk yard now but time isn't on our side. I spawn in a large disk like device. with 4 blue tanks. Here take this and place it anywhere outside on the building. It should repair it completely. And take these Slime tanks to New York and give them to Ray and Egon, they'll know what to do. ^ Well it was great seeing you again Ben. I knew that if was to stay I could just drive straight to Junction City but I was need even more in Equestria. Oh and when you can, Tell Optimus Prime these numbers... 45.78.13 he'll know what to do. $ It was a pleasure fighting with you again. Da I will treat SkyBuster with great care...like Sasha! After another moment of silence I could only smile as we walked back through the portal. Iacon.E (Earth) OPTIMUS I JUST GOT A SIGNAL FROM BEN'S WATCH! Can you track the signal Ratchet? Not sure at the moment but he was detected in the central Badlands...

Readers are taken through the eyes of 15 year old Benjamin/Ben travel through a portal to the ponies world where he refinds parts of his life from the past and soon future. Fighting new foes and old equestrian enemies all leading up to the shocking ending of one's life to start trillions more.] Told in (first person) point of view. Hello there. My name is Ben. You may think what the heck is a kid/teen going to talk about. Well this is not a made up story. For the past 10 years give or take I've been through more then than history could tell. When I was 11/12 years old a great event happened to me A horrific being called Black nearly destroyed my world. And when the Guardians of time and space came to stop him he over powered all 11. I was in the center of the battle of time and space. When the superior one fell I ran to his side. There he told me what he saw from his eyes. The others came around chanting something that I had no idea what it was. In a span of 30 seconds they all merged to a single ball of blue night light. To me it looked like the Transformers Matrix of Leadership I saw in the G1 cartoon. But it had a darker blue glow. With a gold-sliver core.With handles that had a Platinum color with a line of black. I was filled with power as I sent Black into dust particles to drift in the deep voids of space. After a year of having my powers I began to unlock the most greatest abilities ever possible. I could travel through time and space. But it all changed when I was sent to another Dimension. I knew everyone there. From their names to their personalities. After time I divided my world into two. One for the Dimensions and the other for the human realm. Soon after that I had gone to nearly 50 different worlds that seemed to link together. Naming us after my home town sports team The Raiders. But with such powers and abilities there comes a grave cost... When exploring I find conflicts that I help in the aid and fight against the evil. When I first died I thought it was my end. But through a unknown reason my powers was capable to save me by repairing my damaged body. And so I lived on and on. When exploring Dimension 57 a.k.a. the Transformers Universe I grew into a new form. I did at a time become a transformer. Meeting Optimus Prime and the others was incredible. I made friends quickly. Even teaming up with the great Grimlock and the Dinobots. Tho at it's own cost to the future. I told events of the future that each side got information from. In a time span of 270 years the cyberwar got messier. Leading to the time of launching the Ark. Now its a universal stand off on Earth and Cybertron. But it the combined power of the Autobots and Raiders we tipped the balance. Now you may ask your self (He's 15 years old and he saw nearly 300 years of history.) Well truth be told I'm nearly 2,351 years old in some worlds and dimensions. But with the combined power of technology and energy I stay as my normal and most well known 15 year old look. And because of body repairing and travel I was able to fit in any place. Slowly Earth D2's populations grew to incredible proportions. 9.4 Billion humans and 4.7 trillion Dimensionals. We formed a connection between worlds and each other as the great capital of Junction City rised to link everyone. We were at peace at the time. Until one day and a strange portal revealed other wise... . Chapter 1- A Normal Day on Earth It was about Eleven in the morning on a piece full day at Junction City. I was slowly waking up to the window to take in the nice day ahead. It was like any other day. But instead it was Thursday that seemed like Friday to Saturday. Everyone was all about through the city doing their averege routine of work. I was setting up a little chair and a cooler on the balcony of my observation tower that served as a headquarters and home. I about to take a drink when receiving a call on my watch. "Ben Do you read this is commander Hidsteal at the decagon do you read?' "Yes, Hidsteal what is it?" "Sir, our scanners have detected a energy pulse on Griffin Rock island magnitude 3J." "Any word from the rescue bots or Prime?' "No sir" "Alright I'll be on the way." "Shall I open the ground bridge sir?" "No need I'll fly." I end the call, quickly drink the can of Pepsi I just opened, kicked the cooler back an just paused for a second. I hop up on the railing and look down to the city about 50 feet below me and slowly tip forward. Free falling down to the streets. I dial a command on my watch, slammed it down and activated my flight suit. Just before hitting the ground the thrusters go in full blast as I sky rocketed through the air passing by everyone. Giving a good wave to people as I hovered by them. Heck I was even able to grab a apple when flying close to the farmers market and was able to pay the guy his dollar on the return pass. It was only about a few minutes when I reached Iacon E. The Autobots earth base. I flew passed the outposts and factory's that the bots worked and lived in. I land at a training course where I was able to say hi to my robot friend Bumblebee trying new recruits. Even Smokescreen was there helping. I continued on till I reached the Decagon communications tower. I fly through the maintenance shafts up to the ground/space bridge terminal. I get to the main terminal and meet back up with Hidsteal. He was a old friend I meet back on Cybertron. He was a Dark green and red bot that looked like Optimus, Snarl, and Ironhide. "Sir, it took you long then normal have any trouble on the way?" "No, Hidsteal just enjoying the day." "Oh okay sir. " "Now tell me about these readings we got." "We detected the spike about a hour ago. Base line reading show that it was slightly higher then the islands normal energy rank." The ranking is judged by the areas energy strength. The planets normal setting is a 2D with some areas going to 2E -3F in places like Iacon and Junction City. But anything higher would be a little alarming even for a high-tech area like Griffin Rock. "Any word still from the bots? Even Cody or Doc greene would send a message." "Still nothing sir." Well I'm already suited for a long trip might as well take a look into it. Open a ground bridge to the island, it's been awhile sence I saw them. Hidsteal opens the bridge to Griffin Rock. I walk through it and land on the road that leads to the islands labs where Doc Greene and I first meet. I looked around seeing that it was very quite then normal with the sound of animals near by and the humming from the power lines. Chapter 2- The portal to the unknownI arrived at the labs. I knocked on the main door hoping someone would answer but no response. I activate my no-collider to fase through the door of the lab. It seemed to be very quite unlike something turned on on as I made my way to the main computer terminal i tried to found anyone and nothing. I checked the logos of when the last entry from anyone was and it registered 4 hours ago. Seeming to be weird after all the surge was undecided about a hour and a half things here have happened with people going missing when nano bots sent people to a old cave but that was before prime showed me the bots. As I walked outside i tried again to connect to the firehouse only to b hit with dead silence, not even static went through the mic. Wondering what had happened I grabbed out my hyper disc and spawned in my motorcycle, nicknamed Ecto62 because of how much this bike has seen traveling through different places, getting dosed by slime countless times and its most noticeable part of have a proton gun on the handle bars and a nuclear accelarator-looking engine that gave it its power. I jumped on and rode into town. It reminded me of Jasper, Nevada after the cons came without all of the destruction. I finally pull up to the firehouse, got off and did what anyone else would do... I rang the door bell. I was hoping to find Heatwave,Chase,Blades,Boulder and everyone else. But it was empty too. I Checked the bunker, living quarters and training course to find them. As I walked out of the firehouse my M.a.e meter went off ( M.a.e. magnetic. Atmosphere. Energy Meter) it started to spike with a reading for the center of town that went from a 2D-2E to a 3H-3I. I followed the trail t for about 20 minutes to the towns part that lead to a statue of a horse that was still clean and new looking. I put the meter up to it and the energy level was the exact on that Histeal told me about earlier. I pulled out a E.M.F detector seeing that the it broke under the sheer strength of power around it. Before i could react the energy level spike to 3M as I felt something pulling me to the mirror on the statue. A large purple energy pulse surged from it opening a full-blow portal. I tried to get as far back as i got but couldn't get from it. Even my spike shoes dug 5 inches into the stone it still didn't help. When I was near inches from the portal. But before I got pulled through I heard a familiar voice of a great fire truck. "BEN GRAB ON!" He yelled out when throwing his fire hose to me barely holding on to it. I soon saw people standing around the park watching with the bots all holding on to Heatwave and me. Right when he and the bots were about to pull me out the head of the hose broke off as the bots landed backwareds when I was sent flying to the portal. It was seemed to be like a entirety but ended up being less then 40 seconds. I woke up to be ling on a stone path in front of looked like to be a highschool. I got to my feet pick up my equipment and started to think. WHERE THE HELL AM I?! As I check to see what place this was nothing was found. Then I check the ground bridge logs to see if i was sent to a already logged dimension, and in big red letters stated -"ZONE NOT RECONIZED"- Just as I was about to go in rage the meters reading suddenly spiked again seeing that the portal was opening again but had more a pushing then a pulling to effect. Knowing what happens in these situations I ran to the left side of the building, pulled out a proton pistol, put on my goggles and hold the M.A.E. meter to get a good scan on what ever was about to come through, but it wasn't what I was expecting to see. A teenage girl and strange looking dog. My Jaw drop to see it was another human that got pulled through the portal. As I pointed the meter to her using the meters range extender to her. She had her own energy level of that nearly as strong as the portal. I quickly turned back to see that she was going to the school. I thought to my self if she has the same strength as the portal then maybe she know's how it works. After getting to a conclusion that I should find out more information on her and what she knew about the portal. I active my cloak and no-collider to hopefully get close with out being went through. It seem that getting close would be a bit harder then thought do to that fact of so many people there in the halls alone. Before I was able to find her I got a strong reading from a trophy case was a crown that gave off energy as high as 4S it nearly hit my matrix level of 5T. 9 hours later... It was about 9:40, after being here for a day I figured that I should get some sleep dispit the fact of what has happened it felt like a more like a normal day and that tomorrow would have something in store for me. Chapter 9: The Begining of a NightmareIt was the day before Nightmare night and everyone was running around to do last minute preparing. Pinkie Pie however took decorating to a new level. Even asking me if I had or could make fake slime for the party in town hall. Soo I gave her lamp algae (That green stuff that forms on a fish tanks like glass that turns brown at to much light.) is some jars. I was at the fire house doing my own preparing. Arming the proton pack and traps. Knowing that if this worlds event is identical to earths Halloween then the paranormal activity threat goes even higher.( Why it does I don't Know) I was also getting a nother car ready, Ecto 4x4C. It was a full bodied car with the main vehicle of Ecto 3 but had a push bar, blue lights, windows in the back, and a proton cannon on the roof rack with a super slammer. A knocking as at the door. Hey Ben. Hey Twilight, whats up? Just wanted to make sure that your going to be coming to the celebration party Luna and Celestia will be here for the first time. Ya I will,I said with a concerned voice. Whats wrong? I have a feeling tha something very bad is going to happen to night. I don't know what but I just feel it. Oh and question. What? Can you take this and place it on the wall of town hall. Why?, what is this thing? Its a PKE disruptor, It will deflect PKE energy away from it by a mile distance. I'll be setting up more through out town later. Ok. Later that day at the nightmare night party. Ponies were feeding into town hall. Decorated by the towns party pony Pinkie. Standing outside were Twilight and Rarity waiting for the princesses to show. Rarity with a big grin on her face. Why you so happy Rarity?, Twilight asked. I'm happy because the princesses wanted me to make their costumes. And on cue the two royals arrived. Luna wearing a version her Nightmare moon style with a custom helmet, armor and blade attached to her back leg. Celestia was more different. She had black glitter armor and her legs with a curve cut helmet that looked like Megatron's head. Her mane was also fused with a dark red and black streak then the rest gray. Wow... As they approached the hall a whaling noise came from behind. They looked to see blue likes flashing with a white paint job The object skid to a stop nearly 4 feet away from the group. What is this? Celestia asked. On cue I stepped out of the ecto wearing a black jumpsuit with a green hose leading from my leg to behind my belt with a faded red strike down my arms. Celestia, Luna Benjamin I see that your quite dressed for this evening party. No,i'm not. What do you mean, asked a puzzled Celestia. I'm here to guard the town hall and everyone. On the nights like this paranormal activity can be really up. Paranormal? Ghosts, Im also setting up disrupters around the town to deflect any pk energy away as of a mile radius. Ok, but you will be joining us later? asked Luna. Of course I will. Later, the party was in full blast music roaring and everyone enjoying them selves. I stood near the main door with a cup of punch and a proton gun in hands. Still staying alert for, if anything would happen. Twilight walked up to me. She was a bit on the lazy side after dancing like there was no tomorrow. Hey... Benny... have you seen Pinkie Pie we're out of punch I wonder why, I thought to my self. And do you know where Rainbow dash went? No, I haven't seen them since pinkie wanted to show her the wonderbolt cake she made for Dash. Well if you see they tell Pinkie.. I know and Twilight. Yes?... You may want to stay away from the punch bowl for a bit. I said and chucked at my joke. I'll know when its too much. She said taking a drink of a cup that she had. Starting with this cup. She said falling backwards in the dance floor again. Well might as well find them. I thought taking a drink and latching the thrower back on the pack. As I walked through the town hall I saw photos of the town's past. I grinned to see the way life was back then like it was before my time. I got to the kitchen which was empty of anyone. Rainbow Dash? Pinkie Pie? are you guys here? But no answer. I looked around to see if they were hiding. As I searched around. I then I saw an old door with chipped paint on it. I pulled the latch to see what was inside. A old stair case with a low glowing light at the bottom. I slowly walked down to see a torch lite with web,dirt and dust every where. (Thank god I was wearing work boots.) As I rounded the corner I could smell the residue of slime but didn't see any. My blood went curdled when hearing a loud blood turning scream coming from up ahead. I ran as fast as I can grabbing and arming the proton pack. I reached a Large chamber with bones against the wall and blood staining the floor. I looked to see Rainbow Dash clamped to a table. I looked in horror that her cutie mark was cut out leaving a patch of flesh. Her wings completely removed sitting on another table. RAINBOW DASH! I ran to her. She was bleeding a large amount of blood but yet barely alive. DASH, DASH CAN YOU HEAR ME!? I yelled out. At the corner of my eye I saw another figure staring at at me with a foot long knife in it's mouth. Pinkie Pie?! But as it walk forward it's looks faded away showing a more demon look. Dark pits with a red dot were her eyes, Her pink mane stained with blood and her legs all cut up. WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER! I took care of one of the barers of the elements of harmony. With them gone this worlds greatest powers will be no more and you will be destroyed to become the worlds new ruler's personal throne... But way wait...when I CAN KILL YOU NOW! I jumped out of the way before she could get me. Her knife leaving a long cut across my right side cheak. OVER PRIMUS'S LIFE LESS BODY. I said in anger as I propped Dash onto my shoulders hold her parts in one hand and the proton gun in the other. I turned to run but to see the main hall was being flooded with slime. DARK SLIME!? I turned to see another hall and ran as fast as I could shooting the demon pinkie,dodging slime when caring a 105 lb proton pack and a 130 lb Rainbow Dash. Stay with me Dash. I ran only to be meet by a large blocked up door way. Demon Pie (her nickname) was slowly walking up with slime flowing behind her. I reached into my pocket to pull out a grenade like object throwing it front of her. I crouched down and fire a boson dart at my feet. Outside the other were looking around the town hall searching for us. No sign of the princess. Keep looking we need to find Rainbow Dash and Ben. Just then a the ground began to rumble as the doors blow open with me,dash and cloud of slime erupted out. I fell right on the ground siding about 4 feet with dash about 2 feet away. BEN!, Twilight yelled She looked at my face. A huge cut mark across it with blood dripping down. She turned to see dash ling on the ground. RAINBOW DASH! What happened? asked Celestia. A dark slime demon got to her. It looked like pinkie to get her. I found barely alive. WE HAVE TO GET HER TO THE HOSPITAL. That won't work. Theres only one way of helping her. I said slamming the watch in a flash of light blue light picking her up. Can you get us to the fire house. Heck ya. She said as her horn glowed teleporting all of us in front of the fire house. I kicked opened the garage doors like they weren't there. I ran down the stairs to my labs as everyone followed. I placed her on the table connecting cords to her to keep her stable. I grabbed her wings holding them in place as a joint laser reattached them. Everyone watch with dreadful faces of sorrow and suffering as I tried to keep Dash from ding. I stepped back to turn to them. I opened my chest plat and pulled out the matrix. A gold glow was coming from the blue core. I grabbed one handle and turned it completely around, several shards of the core poked out. I chipped on off and put the matrix back. I turned back to see the group with a shocked expressions on there faces as I held the shard above Rainbow Dash's chest and yelled. BY THE POWER OF LIGHT AND ALL HOLY I CALL APONE THE BRINGER OF LIFE TO SAVE THIS SOUL. The shard grew from being 2 inches to now a foot long. I waved it over my head and slammed it at her with all my might. Everyone was in horror of me stabling Dash with the crystal. Rarity and Fluttershy both fainted. Applejack turned and threw up in a garbage can near by. But before they could say anything a blue light glow from dash. As the crystal sank into her chest as the health colors appear again and red then slowly to green. The watch shouted out DNA DAMAGE REPAIRED. As dash gasped for air and moaned everyone ran over to her to hug and comfort her. Thanks Ben... Ben. I stood there motionless. I was in my own mind walking there a blue hall way to a large chamber. It had screens of me and my past every where and the walls and then blank one for the rest of the way. I stopped at the last on before they went blank showing me and the others in the lab. But then the one beside came on It showed a water fall of Dark slime, creatures coming up out of it and the black figure appearing. Before anything else happened I came to on the floor soaking wet. Ahhhhh what happened? That's what we want to know. I got up to walk over to dash sleeping on the table still beat up. I'll keep here for the time being untill she has regained her full strength back. And for the rest of I strongly urge you all to watch your selves. I said in a concerned and yet strict voice. Celestia I know that you are concerned for everyone safety but we can't risk any other accident. I'll want to set up PKE disruptors around Canterlot if you'll let me. Of course. Chapter 17: Tirek's Return and FallCanterlot 2 days after Tirek's escape... (Celestia's p.o.v.) I was In blissful dream. I was relaxing on top of my favorite hill overlooking the horizon as I slowly set the sun. Luna walked up to me with a smile as she sat beside me. It feels wonderful here does it Tia.. Indeed sister. The way this land should be for ever... Ya... We both looked up to the sky hearing a familiar noise. We saw Ben and Rainbow Dash trying to teach Twilight how to fly fast. When he saw us he gave a wave as we did back. Such a sweet boy, Luna said in her softest voice I only wish that we can make him the happiest he can be. Ya... Suddenly a hard guest of wind hits from behind us. Blinding me for a moment. When I could see a again all I saw was destruction and fire everywhere.. LUNA WHERE ARE YOU?! I turned to see the castle engulfed with black flames... Oh...no... Within a second another guest of wind hit me. But this time I was in the castle. I looked around the destroy walls and found Luna. LUNA ARE YOU ALRIGHT?! I try to grab her but I just fased through. I turned to see me lying on the ground next to her. We were both looking at a large black cloud with slime falling from it. The great and powerful royal sisters...such a weak pair. SAYS THE GUY WHO'S TALKING... We snapped our heads back to see Ben standing in the door way. His face was bruised and bleeding. He had sparks and slime all over his power suit. The chest plat was so badly damage that you could see the glow of his matrix. Holding a giant 6 hooves (foot) long sword in one hand. And a strange shield in the other. BUT HOW...I DESTROYED YOU. Ever hear the term its the last count down...well my count down isn't down just yet. The dark cloud soon changes its form into...a large black monster ... Soon they both charge at each other in another flash of light. After the flash I saw Ben being supported by Twilight and the others. He had a huge gash mark on his suit with blood slipping by his hand. Me and Luna were on our hooves with armor and swords of our own. TWILIGHT GET BEN OUT OF HERE. My dream self yelled. LIKE HELL YOU ARE... Come on Ben we got to GO! A large red flash caught my eye as I turned back to see me and Luna together on the ground. I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU TWO FOR TOO LONG!... A large crystal spair forms. Aim right at me and Luna. We both cover our eyes. In a another flash of light I was blinded but this time it was a blue glow. Followed by a blood curdling scream. Luna, me, my dream me and the others looked. BEN!...Luna cried out in horror. He was standing in front of us with the spire sticking out his back with blood and a strange blue liquid covering it... He dropped to one knee. Trying to say something. Never...ever...let me catch you here again... Out of no where his sword gets thrown into the monster's head in a burst of black light. NOOOOoooo! I wake up screaming my lungs out. It was just a dream... Just a dream.. or was it... The Fire house (Ben's p.o.v.) I was sitting in the basement of the lab repairing and upgrading my power suit. knowing that my Transformer mode is now unusable till Ratchet can get a hold of it. Since being here the suit has gone through a lot. Back in Dimension 1 I could just walk through a regenerator and it would be as new. Now it has hole's from battle, Burn marks, scratches and slime residue stains. Through the building the mane 6 and Spike were going at there things. Twilight was in the foyer reading book after book. AppleJack, despite her knowledge of technology was working on the TIV. ( Why she was? I have no idea.) Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy were in the kitchen making something. I couldn't tell what but judging the smell from the vent it smelled good. Spike and Rainbow Dash somehow managed to get addicted to a bunch of old video games I had back from years ago. OH YA NEW HIGH SCORE! Dash's voice echoed through the vents. And Rarity well...she was in the garage making jump suits for everyone. (Don't ask why) SYSTEM REPAIRS ACTIVIATED ESTIMATED TIME 5 HOURS. I really need to get that software and mechanics updated. I got up and headed back up to the main floor. Right when opening the door Pinkie's voice came on the intercom. HEY EVERY PONY FOOD IS READY. Lets hope it isn't sweets again... I muttered passing AJ and Rarity. Well you know Pinkie she likes a darn surprise anytime. AJ pointed out. Oh Ben my darling I have to ask you. Where can I get a trace of a badge? Rairty ask on the way up the stairs. Just take one from my old suits. It hasn't changed much but the material color. We made our way to the kitchen that served as a dinning room, meeting room, and testing room. On the table were 8 plates each with a color matching to every one. Oh come on Dash you only won because the controller cord broke. Ya just keep saying that little guy. Enjoy playing your hooves to the bone guys. Twilight smirked still holding a book. Don't worry Spike I got wireless ones. Oh ok. Everypony sit down now. We sat down as Pinkie wheeled a large pot over to the table. I call this Pinkie's Five Alarm Soup. Why's that Pinkie? Twi ask curiously. Well knowing the name I'll say she put in five different kinds of peppers or something just as hot. You guessed right Ben. She said pouring everyone soup. Eat up now. If your still hungry I made enough for thirds... At first we all hesitated when tried it. Twilight,Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash screamed out in the first bit of the hot soup. Rarity jumped out and ran to the sink's falsit to cool down her mouth. I don't see what you all are complaining about this is the best soup I ever had. I'm with ya on that pardner. Same here. Spike yelled out. All the girls watch as me and Spike were in was like a eating battle. 8 bowls of hot soup later... Give up yet? Yes... Spike said groaning under his stuffed stomach. Wow...I never saw anyone eat so much of something so hot. Dash said with a bit of amazement. Would you believe I ate a grenade once and thought it was a potato. Umm... Suddenly there was a knocking at the door. Wonder who that can be at this time of night. I said pointing at the wall clock that read 10:25 I got down to the main floor and opened the door. Even to my surprise there stood Celestia and Luna. Celestia,Luna..? This a bit of a surprise. I do know that the timing is a bit strange but we have something we need to tell you. Celestia said with a weak voice Oh well come on in. Me and the others just finished eating. I think there might be some left. We walked back up to the main room. HEY GUYS! We got guests Princess? What are you doing here? Well...it's hard to explain...Celestia started to say but lost thought Lets just say at this point things are about to go into a different direction Luna state. Well what happened? Before Celestia could answer she start to get dizzy and collapsed. Princess! On the other side of the room every PKE and M.a.e meter went off. I ran over to see what it was reading. Pke levels are insane. M.a.e. is hitting a solid 3X What does that mean? I don't kn... Right when I turned to them the readings spike even higher. I slowly walked over to Celestia and put the meters to head. HOLY...boooooommmmm. The meters literaly exploded under the strain of the power. Ummm I'm not a scientist and all I'm sure that's not suppose to darn happen. Applejack state. I stared at the meter for a moment. Remembering that I never had readings like this since the Manehatten accident. Get her down to the labs I said nothing else as we got into the service elevator down to the lab. Lay her down here. They propped Celestia up onto a table that was connected to a large ring of some kind. Alright I need yo guys to stand behind this barrier. Why? It's not going to hurt her is it...? I change into my X suit telling them its important. ( The X suit is the inner armor of the power suit a.k.a. Secondary Armor) Alright Celestia... I said as the disk started to spin. Just close your eyes and try not to move much. Will this indeed hurt...? Not at all but you my feel a headache latter Alright.. I pull a lever that slowly sends the table into the rotator. Activating scanner. On cue a surge of blue electricity engulfed Celestia's head. The others where shock and horrified at the site. In one flash of light the machine slowly died down. Alright you guys can come out now. I yelled out helping Celestia up. What did that thing do? It scans her memory's and brain waves. The PKE and Mae readings where deadly high for some one even of her power. Celestia and Luna faced each other knowing what I was talking about. And with Tirek now controlling Dark Slime any PKE energy detected must be found and removed. Ben I... She said but was cut off because of the headache. Easy. You need to sleep. And as for the rest of you I strongly urge you to take a proton pack and Pke meter. At any sign of problems get the pack on and be ready. Alright They said in unison. I'll stay here to watch over Tia. Alright lets get her upstairs. After the others left Me and Luna Steadily placed Celestia on my bed. You sure we can put her in here Ben? Belive me it's the safest part of the building other than the lab. Alright, I'll keep a watch on for the time. Ok, I'll be down in lab. If you need me just call on the intercom. 4 hours later (Back to Celestia's p.o.v.) I was in another dream. but this time it was just a white space and a foggy road. Out of no where Luna came. Luna how did yo... You forget sis I get view and visit others dreams. Oh, where do you think we are? I don't know Tia...wait who's that? They turn to see a figure walking up to them out of the fog. Good evening... We both looked at the figure. We were almost sure who it was. Ben?.. Not quite. I'm Sky Star. Or what normal people call me Devin. Brother of Ben. We both stood there in shock. We were face to face with Ben's younger brother. What are we...before you ask any questions I must tell you. What you have experienced early was not a dream nor a nightmare, but history. Me and Luna had hit a wall of confusion. What do you mean? The events you saw was not from your imagination. It was time rifts of the future times to come. You mean that what I saw was to happen. We us,Equestria and Ben...? Indeed. I must go now. Wait what happens after... Before I could finish he had disappeared into the fog as we drifted back to reality. I woke up as Luna shook the dream off. The clock read 6:20 am. I got up to the window to raise the sun. I could only think to my self. If this Black monster is the source of this...Dark Slime then what is Tirek's part in this...? After raising the sun we walked out to the kitchen to see Ben working on some device and drinking coffee. Aren't you a bit young to be drinking that? I said with a chuck. I said catching Ben's attention. Are you a bit old for asking that. He smirked. I made eggs and waffles if you both are hungry. We sat down to enjoy the nice meal with out being watched by guards. Soo did you find anything? Indeed I did. He said pulling long pieces of paper. You see this. He said point to a small blue line. This is the average brain activity for dreams and memory This green line shows the activity for the three main kinds of ponies. Earth,Unicorn and Pegasus. Now this purple line is the average alicorn thoughts. And this is yours. We both looked at the Red line that was 5 times higher than the normal alicorn. And that's not everything. I found silencer traces of PKE energy. That means it came from a source of Dark Slime. What can we do? We need to go back to the place where it first happened. What?... Before I could realize it we're were back in Canterlot Ben remind us why where here? I ask with a bit of wonder. What ever happened the night before started here. Soo that means there should be a trace of the energy. Me and Luna were still confused as he scanned my entire room. Wear that strange pair of goggles. Ben what are you... There I got a tail. And it leads to the direction of the crash site. Where Tirek returned. (Yes the chapter's name is in the story) Come on we need to find the source and stop it. In no time Me,Luna and Ben were flying to the old crash site. When we got there small patches of grass and frost covered the site. Ben what is the hope of finding anything here? I know that Shockwave did ground bridge him away. But knowing the one-eyed con he always has another wild card ready. What do you mean? Luna asked. If he came back in this area with a strain of slime then the chance of him returning here is 7 out of 10. Here put these on. It's would help if we had more eyes searching. He said giving us two more sets of goggles. Umm...Ben... You can hold them with your magic or just extend the strap. We all began to look around the area for...for...well I didn't really know. I guess something out of the ordinary. After a good five to ten minutes. I walked up to the mountain side and saw a large purple ora. Hey Ben! I found something. I yelled out as Luna and Ben came over. I don't see anything Tia... Put your goggles on. Oh...sorry. We all stared at the rock face. To a normal eye it was just rock but with the goggles it showed a large glowing purple ora. Well what now? I asked. Take a step back and hose it down. Me and Luna stood aside as Ben sent a stream of green slime at the rock. In time it slowly faded showing a fairly large tunnel. This way girls... We began to walk into the large cave. I caught something wrong with Ben. Ben is something wrong...? I don't know. It just feels...werid in here. Like... familiar weird. It's like going bac...WAIT what's that sound? We got stopped in our tracks as a rushing river stood apone us. Oh...My...God...soo much dark slime. I stood there in shock at the river. I turned to see the cave went two ways. One end had caved in but had enough space for the slime to flow through. The other side went into a dark black tunnel where the slime came from. Come on. I think we're getting close. But first... We were a little puzzled as Ben turned to guys with his watch glowing red. In a bright light he spawned two small objects into his hands. They looked like his proton pack but was much small with two circular guns. Before we go any further it's best that you guys have some form of fire power. He handed me and Luna the small packs and we carefully put them on. Say hello to the compact arm pack mark 8 Or in this case hooves pack. A 9 ring-x pack now equiped with slime blower. Fairly simple to work now. Right leg is Proton, Left is slime. You can us your magic to press this button to vent the pack when it over heats. After a short speech on how to us the packs he spawned in his as we started back down the cave using the spot lights. Ben...what happenes when we find out what's at the end of the tunnel? Luna asked. We find out who or what is and shoot everything we got. Oh... We kept on walking for a good ten minutes as we followed the river. Soon we came to what appeared to be candle light and talking. My master I have news to report... And what would that be Tirek... The princesses have seen the events that we have planned... And have more and more curious... We stood at the door way to a large chamber. There stood Tirek to a normal size of what he looked like before he had the alicorn magic in him. In front of him was a large dark blackish-red crystal floating above the river. Once I've full gained the power to destroy the Elements of Harmony I'll gladly rip that so-called Matrix of Universal Power out of that... human boy's lifeless body. Then I'll be able to rule Equestria with an iron hove... We kept on watching the conversation. I saw that Ben's hand was tighting into a fist around the gun's handle. Sir may I have the ability to destroy the alicorns for good. Suddenly a large beam of red energy shot from the crystal as he cried in pain. YOU WILL NOT DARE TOUCH THEM. IF the elements do fall. Then with all of their combined powers they can over power me and end everything... Now take care of our little guesses... The crystal slowly sank into the slime as Tirek faced right at us. Well...isn't it Princess Celestia ,Luna and the little human hero Ben... Tirek... Not the greatest sight for sore eyes. I said smirking o how he got beaten. **moans** Ever since our last encounter. Clever trick putting all your magic to your little student. Twilight Sparkle had it within her. Even without our magic she and the others defeated YOU. Indeed but it seems that she isn't here now is she. And the elements are miles away from your reach. And now with my new powers even your magic can't STOP ME! THE MASTER WILL RISE AGAIN! We stood there in shock as his veins glowed a red-black as the river starts to bubble. YOU FORGOT SOMETHING. And what might that be boy... WITH EVERY POWER IN THE UNIVERSE THERES A EQAUL AND A OPPOSITE. Heat them UP! Knowing what it ment we activate the packs in a steady noise of the cores cycling. HOSE HIM DOWN... We took aim and fired at the giant. Streams of Blue,green and pink slime clashed with his black beam. BEN IM RUNNING OUT! I yelled out. As a response I guess he stops firing slime and sends a beam of energy at his beam. HOW CAN SUCH A WEAK CREATURE OVER POWER ME... Maybe because you don't know what power is.. After a minute of firing he gave up as slime covered his body. We were just feet away when the river bubbled again as the crystal came out. Soo this is the little human that is the holder of the Matrix of Power... A pity that such power in the hands of the child... And even that you have failed me again... NO MASTER!...I... BE GONE! In a bright flash all the energy was sucked out of Tirek. You worthless servant... The crystal seemed to face us as it slowly sank back into the river. We will meet again... And the worlds will fall... We stood there for a moment. Not knowing what it meant We shook it off and turned back to Tirek. We was back to his drained state. What do we do with him now? There's always room in the containment unit. Wait I... Before Tirek could say what he was about to say Ben throws a trap near him. As Tirek slowly got pulled in the there was a though in the back of my mind. I told Shockwave about him. And yet it seemed that he was meant to come back... I shock off the thought as Ben picked up the trap and walked back. This would be a good spec for Egon to study. Now let's get the hell out of here. We made our way back to the cave entrance. Have the guards to be ready for anything in the coming days. Alright Tia. A few hours later... Back at Canterlot After lowering the sun the facts came to truth. A great evil has fallen on to Equestria. One more powerful than Tirek. Me and Luna we're thinking of what to do. If the elements of harmony and us can't stop it then what will fall apone our land... I don't know Tia but... This is what we know.. We know that the threat is using the dark slime as a source of power. We know that Tirek wasn't the real threat. But he wanted us to believe he was. Right..? Which raises the next set of questions. Who is it and where is the slime coming from. But you said that he gains power from the slime right? Can't we just remove it...? Luna...I've done that before and the results never change. And with the amount of dark slime here I find it hard to try that. But what about the source? Hmmmm...we could try but we would have to find it first. Even if we do stop it there is still what ever slime that made it through. What about that sewer tunnel? I asked. You said you, Shining Armor and Night Light found a large chamber with a water fall of it. Yes but that doesn't mean it's the source. Unless... Unless what? We didn't know at first what he was thinking but we knew he had something. I have a plan but you may not know it at first... Dimension 59 Tuefort Badlands... 197X ( Engineer's [Engi] p.o.v) It was a day like any other. Me and the team was battling it out with the Blu's Intel case. PUT DISPENCER HERE! It was a long day. Both of us had large sentry nests in the intel rooms. But thanks to Scout and Spy we were able to win the match before going into over time. ( And thank damn god we didn't) We were back at the respawn relaxing when medic came in holding a jar of some purplish black goo. *What ya got there doc? Sniper asked. I have not ze slightest clue...but this would be excellent for some tests!
Chapter 3- A Leaper with a suit and a Girl with magicAfter waking up from a long day i knew that I had to find things out.I obtaned a identity of her and 6 others that seemed to be linked to one another. Mainly her and the one called Shimer.I keep my distance to collect my data and see what happens. for the first 3 and a half hours it was normal but when another spike hit I knew something was going to happen. Recent readings indicated a large mass of P.K.E. and M.A.E. energy was building up near the school and spreading. Realizing that something was coming I prepared my equipment, charged everything to the max and prepped my power suit. (The power suit is what i use for combat,traveling, and other needs. It resembles a mix of a hement that looks like primes, a full armour suit with a large pack on my back with wings to fly, a over screen on my left arm for me to use the watch and other functions. A slender bar is mounted on my for-arms for two blades that slid out. and to top it all off with a center chest plate that has a orib-like object linked to my matrix.) It was about the end of the day at 4:30 and I was slowly walking behind the 6 of them down the street with a proton pistol at the ready incase of any danger. When they walked through a door to what like to be a wardrobe shop for dresses. I though at first that am I getting over dramatic about this? I enter the door with cloak and collider on but something was wrong. The no-collider started to malfunction when i accidentally hit a rack of cloths making them tip over and hit the ground. I saw what i did and quickly found a spot no one was near as all the girls went to it. I was standing in front of a large mirror when one of them came up to. I froze when she was 3 inches away.I held my breath as I slowly moved out of the way only to be tripped by the ones dog and landed in a pile of cloths. inadvertently deactivieding my cloaker. I slowly came to only to be tied to a chair with a scarf and hair bands. I looked up to see all of them around me looking at me with confusion and the other with hint of anger. I tried to reach for the pistol but it wasn't there only to be sitting on a table beside them. I looked back at them as on asked who I was and what (the heck) I was doing in a loud voice. Another came up to and told me her name "My name is Twilight and these are my friends" I sat there listening to them as they told me their names. After that they ask what was my name. I told them, breaking the one rule about contact. "My name is Ben." "What's the S for?" asked the one with a cowboy hat. "My last name, but i'm not telling that." They looked at each other then back at me. "Soo now that now I know your names and you know mine you going to let me out of this? I don't want to get blood clots in my hands." They slowly removed the restraints and I was able to stretch again. They look at me when I went back to get my equipment untill one of them with a rainbow colored hair stopped me "And what do you think your doing..." she said. "Move I need to get the scanners back online before I miss any more surges." "Surges?" they asked in confusion. I sighed at the point that I had to explain all about this. I told them about where I was from , who I was and what I do. Telling them about the dimensions and some things about others. They set back and listened to me. And as usual theres that one person that doesn't believe it. Soo I point at my equipment on the table as proof. But what was the most surprising this was when the dog talked. "So your like a space traveler?" I froze with my mouth wide open at this remark was everyone else was. I contained to tell them on that the surge was. "Well it is a bit hard to explain at my current point but the surges I've been tracking for nearly the past two days. Their made of a kinetic energy that this meter can detect and analyze it in a scale of strength ( a.k.a. the alfabetet with a number) these readings that I've been getting have been hit 3H-3J which is very high for any place. When I first arrivived a came through a portal from the statue outside the school with the same energy. And after about 5 to 10 minutes I saw you come through with having an even stronger level and as well as a item in the school it was...a... crown I think. And I assume that it belongs to you..." "How did you know?" "Lucky guess." "But theres something else here with a extremely high P.K.E. levels around the areas. I've been preparing for anything to happen. That black thing you see is a Particle thrower. It's small and easy to use but still packs a good punch." "Well then is there anything we can do to help? " "Yes, but in time for now I need you guys or gales to continue what your doing." "And about you? " I have my own preparations to make but I guaranty you all that you'll some thing like no other... It was night time the girls were at the school doing what ever they were doing when I was outside doing my own thing. I was setting up pke disruptors around the courtyard and preparing for what was going to happen. About halfen hour past when I heard two boys run out the door with the one girl holding a sledgehammer to the statue as the 6 came running out. I know that something was happening but nothing prepared me for this. When to girl put on the crown a large ball of light formed around her. The Mae and pke were going insane indecating that this was it. After a brief explosion the light revealed that the girl had turned into a demolish like dragon. I was in shock what I just at a split second a beam of light shot out of her horn at the group. Them quickly huddled to their for protection only to stand up in a large energy bubble that I shot from my thrower and slowly walked to them help them up. She look at me for a second and said. "WHAT?! WHO ARE YOU!?" I looked up at her with blank face and a angered look. "Well I guess your the one who's being causing all the trouble around here then and trying to hurt my friends was a big mistake." "HA, AND DO YOU THINK YOU ARE AGENST ME!" "LETS FIND OUT!" I drew my watch up and dialed it in with its glow over my face as i smirked a smile and slammed it down. As a large flash of light emitted from me as my power/flight suit was activated. They watched in shock as I was transformed in my secondary armour. "HA,HA,HA YOU THINK A LITTLE METAL CAN HELP YOU! NOW DIE!" In a split second I reached behind me grabbing the proton gun and shot the energy beam into pieces. As I quickly vented the pack after the discharge and shot another stream at her, causing her to shout in the pain of the particle. I seast fire to vent again only to be dodging her shots.I then notice that her power was coming from the crown. I rammed a boson dart send her to fly over the building. Turning to the girls for a new plan. "Guys I think I know how to stop her." "Same with us." "We need to get the crown/Crown." Suddenly she reappear looking even more pissed. I began to shot another beam at her to get her attention as the others distracted her. Promoting the right time for Twilight to jump up and get the crown after that she was defenceless or we thought. Now knowing that it was pure pke energy I dialed the watch again but for something more useful. I lite up again only for this time I was completely covered in my armour and activated the pack as I flew off at her in full speed with a huge crash. Taking blow after blow to each other I was able to get one right in her stomach sending her flying away. As I slowly fly back to the ground in front of the girls smiling that I had just won. But before anyone could say anything I felt a huge object hit and grab me by my wings pulling me in the clouds only to see that she was ripping off them. One of them broke as I sent a smoke bomb at her after which sent me flying out of control to the ground. Just before hitting hit I felt something engulf me as I as inches from grass,, Spun around back on my feet. I saw that the one of them had projected a bubble around me. **looks at her and smiles** As a large crash hit the ground beside us. There she was in a 15 foot deep crater sitting up more furious then ever. "YOU THINK YOU CAN DEFEAT ME!" "No, but lets see try to fight your way out of this little trap. " I held a G-Trap at her, opened it and made the energy flow into it as it closed. There was left was her back in her human form crying her eyes out in sorrow. I reached down to up her up in a amazement to everyone. As Twilight walk over I told her. "I somethings to do here, think you can handle this?" 15 minutes later... After the battle the girls went inside to enjoy the party and I stayed out side doing some clean and filling the crater. It was nice and quite, after the party the girls came out to see me be placing strange boxes around the statue's mirror . "What are those?" "Plasma Slime S4 packs, when activated them can subdue any energy that it holds that way the portal can't open to here." "So what your saying is that it will close the portal for good?" "Yep, and before I do detonate it I see that someone needs to go back through... Twilight." "Yeah. She's her good bye's and thanks everyone even giving me a little thank you." After she walked through the portal I armed the packs only for nothing to happen. I set the safety on to check the wires. How come when ever something is perfect there's always a problem it try's to make. As I fixed the wire and turned the safety off to rearm the packs but before I turned around I felt something grab my arm and pull me into the portal inadvertently setting off them as I get sent flying down another portal. After traveling through another portal I thought to my self on how could ever be able to get back home. The place I was did have a link to Griffin Rock which would mean it could be logged but if I'm sent to a place farther away then the chance of getting a ground bridge is now impossible. I came to only to be sent flying straight at a walk knocking me out. I came to realizing that even what I've been through I was alive but in a little pain. I throw off the pack to check for damage. It was pretty bet-up with wires and some holes. I unplugged some of the wires so that i still have primary functions. As I tossed the pack back on I check where I was. In a large room with a decor like a throne room in a castle. I pulled the m.a.e. meter to check the energy level that was nearly hitting 3P. "Strange I never had readings like these before." Before I could react I heard a voice behind me. I slowly turned and lost a heart beat at what I saw and thought to my self "Holy crap have I dead or am I going more insane than a broken computer."
Chapter 4-The world of Color and the unknown.I slowly turned back only to see about 9 colorful horses in all kinds of colors staring at me in confusion and wonder and I thought I was confused. 3 of them were taller and bigger then the other 6 smaller ones that at a sharp resembles of the girls that I just fought for. I stumbled back only to be stopped by a wall as the small purple one that was wearing the crown walked up to me and said Ben, are you all right? My jaw dropped at the talking horse only for all of them to say something at me. My instincts kicked in that I had to get out of here. I saw 2 sets of doors on each side of me I hasted o make a run for one. Be my choice was clear when the right one busted open with more of them that had armour. Nearly 20 guards wer staring me down for attack as I threw a smoke bomb and ran out. Following me charging at as well has the original 9. One with the blue skin and a rainbow main was nearly 3 feet from my back. I hit the watch hoping to get my flight pack online but nothing. I darted around a corner as everyone ran pasted. I look to see that the wings were severely damage let alone one completely gone. Ripped from when in battle. I had to act quickly if I don't find a way to get air born I would have a chance. I saw a tray of sliver wear and took the main plate that was about the right size to fit as a wing. Suddenly I turned back and saw the hord charging again as I booked it dodging others through out the halls, as I turned I saw a big door open and run to it. I closed it and put a pipe in the handles to lock them. I turn asgenst the door to catch my breath with wide eyes I saw that I wa in a huge room with dozens of them, there were two more doors and a wall with large windows. The doors flew open and the pipe gave away as i realize I was surrounded by guards as the main group entered. I knew it was time to get out, I saw a chandelier in the center high enough that I get reach it and launch my self in the air. I picked up the slate and slammed it in the wings motor and activated the pack grabbed the proton gun. The guards took defensive stands as I shot a boson dart at the ground send me to fly up to the clien. Some them flew up to trap me but I had the upper hand. I took a deep breath lended back and run off the chandelier falling to the floor. Right before hitting the ground I shot another boson and got sent flying through the window. Everyone watch what had just happen. Everything was going as planned until I hit a tree out side falling to the ground 30 feet below. I hit the ground in a hard pain since I already hurt my arm and leg. I got up to see I was in a courtyard. I dove behind a hedge as the main door opened as everyone came out to search for me. Knowing that flying wasn't a option anymore I had to spawn thing fast. Dailing the name and slammed the watch as a green light revealing Ecto62. I hopped on attaching the pack to the engine to give more power. She roared to life as I hit the gas. Racing by anyone who tried to get me. Driving through the gate. I saw that I was in a a town. Dodging everyone that when avoiding the guards. Untill I hit a edge of the town over looking a cliff. Great this place just had to be on a mountain with out a flight pack. You can't run from us NOW STAND DOWN!. The voice came from the larger white horse like thing. I realize that I can't go anywhere except down, has I tought hard I got a insane plan. Smirking a smile at the so called (Princess) as I went full speed at her as guards took the ready positions.I slammed my foot down in the ground turning me a complete 180 degrees at even higher speed to the cliff. Everyone looked and gasped at what had just happened as I slowly rose in mid air. Well I guess this bike has some tricks of its own. I flew down trailing the waterfall in a think forest losing power fast. It was 7:35 pm, 5 hours have passed since got here and I already am losing it. I find a cave in a cliff face that I could use for the time being. It corned so if offered some cover and protection. I thought how could I get pulled into this mess. Its been 3 days when I was just relaxing into me running for me life. I checked what iI had to use let alone eat and drink. 3 small snack bags, a handful of crackers, half of a water, a warm soda, and a old sleeping bag. Damn I really need to prepare for things like this. I spawned them in with some tools and parts to work on getting the pack fixed. Later I found a rock on the side of the cave that I used as a bed as I slowly drifted into sleep. For the first time in a week a dreamed something nice. I woke back up in bed that thursday morning and did my normal stuff and did what I can to pass the time. When it reached the night time, I was slowly walking up the drive way to my house when hearing a nose in the trees. I looked closer reading my thrower to see a slender object. It was a dark like blue with large hair. Before I could get closer to but ended up hitting my against a rock. But it was morning so figured to get up anyway. I look outside seeing the sun rise that felt like warmth for once as I saw what time it was, 8:10. As I came back in I to see what I had left to eat. 10 minutes later I gathered all my stuff that I could still keep and use. I walked down to a stream to get some fresh water and get a well needed shower. I knew that I had to find food but didn't where to look. After about an hour I stopped to stretch out and put ecto back in the hypredisc. I passed over a hill to see what looked like a small town with a sign saying Sweet Apples Ancers. Soo a least they has food here. I walked up to see a barn to see there were a ton of apples in baskets everywhere but nothing else. I picked one up to taste it and it was not bad. Right when I was scanning it to duplicate more to store in the disc but before I could finish I felt a large object hit me from behind knocking me cold.
Chapter 5 - Say hello to the PrincessesAPPLEJACK WHAT DID YOU DO!? I caught him in my barn, no way am I going to let that varmint take my darn apples. Well it serves him right Twi, he did go crazy when he came here. Ya, but he did it because he didn't know where he was. And when we thought that he was going to attack us he just did something to avoid it. ahhhhhhhhh... Look I thing he's waking up.. Ah what hit me... Here have some water. ThankSSSS... I go to my feet like lighting seeing them around me. Is he going to hurt us!? No Fluttershy, he's just a bit freighted. HE'S frightened? He cause a panic in the entire castle. Ben are you ok? Ahh Ya i'm good but what the heck is on me? You were injured so we help the best we can. Thanks even what has happened for the past day you would still trust me? Well sure because anyone has a chance for something good, right girls. Thanks but you don't even know a quarter of it. What do you mean? Remember when I told up about me going to different dimensions,well it wasn't the only thing I did. When I go to one I help the need the people can't do. Combine the forces against the threat. But at a risk of the evil force from going into others to grow stronger and stronger as we go. To fight these forces I've formed a multi-world team called the Raiders. I'm the head leader with one promise I take to anyone. If theres someone about to be hit I take it. In a struggling moment I'll take your place. After explaining all this to them they sat at the sheer strength my words had showing my true color. Soo if you can travel from world to world why doesn;t you go back? Because the bridge can only go so far. All 62 of the dimensions have a link to one in other which can help log them in. Logging them in the bridges computer makes a custom code to allow the connection. But seing I traveled now threw 3 dimensions away from a bridge it can find where I am useless it goes through ll the places I was. Soo in a way your stuck here. Yes We should be getting ready the princesses are to be coming soon. Ahhhh... Princesses? As if on cue a carriage out side pulled up by two Pegasus pulling two large ones with horns. that were near triple the size of everyone else. The large white one got up walk to the group outside. Greetings Twilight, the one called Celestia said. They took a bow at her except Twi seeing that she was one of them. We came here soon as were heard the news that he was found if I'm correct. Yes, he's inside the library Twilight said. May we see him the princess asked. As if on I opened the door and walked out wearing the chest plate and the arm covers from my power suit just be sure if anything was to go south. Hello there Princess Celestia, is it. Saying it when taking bow of my own. Greetings, but I must first apologues for what had happen in the castle with the guards. They were just doing their duty. I understand that. I have a army of my own that if any possible threat came we would act. Yes and I suppose that brings to the first question where are you from and who are you. My name is Benjamin, Ben for short. Im a human being from the planet and dimension of Earth 1. I'm also the leader of the Raiders. Raiders? everyone asked.. They are the army it spoke of. They are made up of my worlds people to keep the secret of our existence and others from other worlds that are divided to the cause of peace throughout the universe. How do you find them? Well at first it wasn't that easy, but after time I meet a race of robots called Transformers that had a device called a space bridge and a smaller ground bridge that can transport matter through time and space. I modified one to fit my usage. But that doesn't explain how you first meet them. When I first was discovering them I was still new to my powers. Then again I was only twelve at the time. Wait, back up. Your telling us that you have travel to distant worlds, united them, and your the leader and now your what 18? 15 on earth's bases. In other worlds I've been on I've become near in the 100's but yet still having my original young form that everyone knows. I see and what is this so called powers? As she's said that everyone turned to me to see. **sigh** When before you all go to the questions I do want to tell you first that its not the greatest sight. I said that when deactiviating the armour and taking of my shirt. Making some blush a little. I put my hand up to my chest pushed on it for 5 seconds and let it go. Two wings popped up folding to the side reviling the inside of my chest. There was a blue orb housed in a sliverish-gold shell with two metallic handles connected to it. They looked at it in amazement of what they were seeing. Even Celestia and the others looked in shock. Soo the blue Pegasus was the first to speak. WOOOW WHAT IS THAT?! This is the Matrix of universal Power. The matrix of what? the one called Apple Jack said. I was able to remember her name because her human counter part had the same hat. And she was the one who kicked me in the back knocking me out cold. Ohhhh I've read about such relics. Forged by ancient beings of other worldly tip. But nothing was ever found or heard from them because it's said they where alive at the beginning of time. Wow... you got that all right in one try?! Twilight live's in a library with a book of everything you can think of. Said the smaller white unicorn said. She has a knowledge of most of everything common or that no one else knows about. Reminds me of my friends Egon and Perceptor. Two of the smartest people I know. They would even give Twilight a run for her money. Soo what does it do asked a curious Celestia. Well even for me it still has its surprises at times. Its what made me be able to find and go into other dimensions. It original worked y me think of a place that I've remembered from before, places others would say don't exist or not a physical. This defied all that. But did you get such a powerful relic said Twilight. Well it wasn't just sent to my front door for me. I had just turn twelve, walking up to my old white house in a old mining town in the eastern corner of the state. It was a long day with a ton of things happening, but when ever something would happen something... opposite would happen catching my attention. Untill... Untill what? A large blue light shot out of my houses roof. Straight into the air causing a huge source of energy to exploding the sky. With in the corse of 30 seconds it shot back to the house shredding it in to pieces. I screamed at the top of my lungs knowing that my family was still inside at the time of the blast. Everyone looked in horror at the mention of what had happen. But before I could collapse from what had just happen a larger Black figure walk out of the rubble laughing at what just happened. At first I didn't understand him untill he said something about others. That he would do the same to everyone in the universe. Everyone's eyes lit up. I yelled out to him. nonoNO! I WOUN'T LET YOU! He laughed at the remark of a human boy stopping something with the powers of a god. I got to my feet, feeling a weird tingling in my hands just before that a shield was casted over me protecting my from his shot. I looked back to see 11 strange white figures with a black aroma. The center bigger on had a blue circle on its chest when the others has different colors. I took cover to see a incredible battle take. Beams shooting from each side. it was only 3 minutes in when they all fell. I was shocked of had just happen as I ran to the leader. He said in his ding voice. You, your the boy who stood against the darkness of evil in the point of hell. Your bravery , wisdom is the greatest we have ever seen. Take our powers and save all... Right as he died I stood there in shock of his words. I knew who I was in the world but his words made me speechless. I saw the other 10 come closer chanting something. They Started to merge into one single figure. With a orb of light getting bigger as well. A green light flashed as the orb shrank and was incast of shere with two handles... The Matrix... He bent down to me. This is a power of all knowledge and will strength of the cosmos Protected it, use it in the darkest of times with that the figured disappeared in the shere making it glow blue. I grab hold of the matrix in my hands feeling the power surge through me. A power I never thought was possible. I put it on my chest as I felt pain forming around it. I screamed as a hole started to form catching attention of the black figure still on a rampage. I saw it come closer to strike a huge shadowy claw but as it hit me, he screamed in pain. The matrix glowed in its blue aroma as it as inside my chest. I smirk a smile at him. You kill my family, destroy me world and threaten the universe. Now you have another thing coming. I stood there in a ready stance waving my hand in a circular motion before a gigantic blade formed in my hand slicing through the figure. Without stopping untill it was gone. I looked around to see the devastation and people coming at as my powers died down some. Before I could react I saw 4 figures walking up to me. I saw their face and screamed in joy. My family was alive. But the area was ground zero. I don't know what were going to do, We losted everything my dad said. But I knew what could be done as I told them to stand back. My eyes lite up again as the aroma returned to my hands. Clamping the ground as everything started to clear away and rebuild. In mer seconds the wasteland become its normal look again but with the feeling of a new start to it. And as I stood there holding tight to my family it vowed to protect anything in the face of danger of any kind. Soo that's how got the matrix with the powers I turn back to everyone's faces in pure shock,horror, amazement and other emotions. Ummmmm I guess I said too much hmm? Celestia was the first to break the dead quite sound We see. And you've gone to the other dimentions to unit the people using your powers? Well,ya prett much. But dispite all the good that has been brought to them the eveil forces also join and grow stronger. And theres been other reasons... Like what, Twilight said I don't want to go into details but I'll still tell up. I took a deep breath as I began to explan. With these powers I had to separate my worlds into dimention 0 and 1 where there are 2 forms of me. Wait soo theres 2 of you?! Well yes and have 2 different lives and body but our minds are one of the same to the other. Im the original. To protect my real world and everyone I created a clone of me to be me in my average life on earth. When I remain in D1 to protect the people of the worlds. And thats not even a quarter of it. What do you mean? It has also effect my personal life. I could never find my other match no matter what and keeping the secerts in my past are harder to hold from even my most trusted friends. The ponies looked at each other and the sound of it. Think what a life would be like if it was the same for them. I began to feel surrow at the time of me talking to them about this. I walked over to a bunch, sat down, and nearly fell into desprastion. Everyone look what me with my face in my hands trying to hold my self to gether. Before I went in full scence of dispare I felt something brush up against me on the bunch. I looked to see the sister of Celestia with her wing around my bakc patting it. I looked up that she was smiling at me like *Its ok*. I smiled back see the comfort in her eye's explian then I said. You've been through it before haven't you.. She nodded. As everyone came up to use and I could tell what they were thinking. Its getting a bit late how about we take you back to the caslte for the time remaining. we can find you a separe bed room. Celestia said. I smiled at the princess for the offer but a voice in my mind told me not to take it. I thank you for the offer but I must deiny. To everyones expersetion of me turning down the offer. Dispite was has happened for the past days I feel that I would be a birdian to you. Plus Im not cut out for this kind of things. She's nodded in agreement. But a quick question. I asked her. She tuned back to answer. Yes? she asked ina curious voice. Does this town have a old fire house? Mainy about 3 to for stories with a large basment? We do surprisely. We walked to the town fire house that was runned down with old paint holes in the roof, broke glass and trash everywhere. They stood outside the front of the building as I walk in to see what could be done. Major cosmedic work neds to be done But iver all the buildings is sound to the last bolt. They look at each other in cofusstion of me wanting to stay in a run-down fire house. Dash spoke up. How could you live in a place like this, I thought you lived in a strong, clean home on a hill? Ya ,but I feel safe in a familier place. I shall send the royal carpeneders to fix this place,Celestia saidBut it might be about 3 days. Well I have something that can change those 3 days into 30 seconds. What? they all said at the same time. I smile as I turned back to the looked at my watch and smiled. You guys what to see something else incredible? I asked them but in returned gave me a puzzeled look. I smiled again to have a little of my kind of fun. I activate the watch letting out a greenish-blue glow over my face as it shot up. Everyone was surprised at what had just happen. I smiled back as I slammed down the dialer in a large green ball of light. They look to see I was still normal but something majorly changed. My entire right hande had become a claw with a blue cyrstal like object in the canister with a liitle tube on the bottom. My right hand was still the same only with a large metalic like glove with wires all over it. Before the could say anythng I spawn in 6 large sheet of metal and lifted on on each side of the building and one inside. As they watch I shot a energy to each panel to one-n-other and all at the fire house. I switched back and pressed a red botton om my arm making the panel and the buidling glow a red for a second send the panel in to the build. It looked comepletely brand new with everything fix. The green came again as I went back into my normal state. I turned back to see they we're staring at what I just with mouths wide open. Even the princesses were shocked. Well what do you think I do pretty good just with a few things. You don't say. And whats better is that it has everything that I had see. As I open the garage dor the ponies were amzed at what they saw. I turned back to do on the top of the doors was a word and a number Red 63 But the R and E where missing only leaving where they were. strange I said out loud I've been on 62 dimentions and their code starts with D. Well looks like I found Dimention 63. I said with a smile. Oh and you haven't told me something. What is the name of this place? Celestia turned with a grin on her face as she look at me then the other as we walked outside. Seeing how this is the best of time I guess we should tell. Ben Welcome to Equestria Far away underground. Is it REadyy yeT? and we have found a place for to be storaged and build its energy strenght. Exellent after we flill the tunnels with the substance we shall flood the kingdom in our darkness and slime. Sir, there is something else as well.. WHAT... Our scouts have scents a strange unknown energy mass near the caslte but they have spotted hwat is the cause and source of this energy. And what would that be... He goes by the name Ben.
Chapter 6:A New StartIt was about 7:30am, I was slowly waking up out of my bed feeling like it was a normal day only to realize that I was still in another dimension surrounded by ponies. Well... might as well get comfortable here. From there I went on with my old daily routine. Wake up sluggishly, get something to eat, take a shower and go to the city but today seemed that I would only be able to do 3 of the 4. I knew adjusting to the is world would be completely different to the others. Mainly because I was a five and a half-foot tall human with a world with 3 1/2 ft tall ponies. Well Ben, you have a lot to do if your going to get back to earth. Somewhere in ponyville... Twilight do you now humans like to eat? Pinkie asked I don't know really but I think what you've made he can eat, He did say he had a sweet tooth. Well how about I make him a overbucked apple pie everyone love's those. True... But you got to remember that he's not use to something like this, Twilight said. I agree we don't know what the other ponies would think even at the first sight of him. Well I think he looks not that bad. I mean sure he is a different kind than us but he does know to make something look good, Rarity stated. But ever the less girls we need him to feel welcomed to our world and help him adjust to it. As if on cue a large explosion rocked the town. WHAT WAS THAT!? Dash yelled out. IT CAME FROM BEN'S HOUSE! Lets Go! Back at the fire house... Well about 2 more of those and I'll have enough room for the lab and the I thought to my self on how to get more rock moved when the garage doors flew open. Hmm someone's in a hurry. I walked up the stair to see a fearful Twilight and friends looking around the fire house. Ahmmm need something girls? I said as I was wiping dirt and rock dust of my face and hands. Ben! Twilight yelled as she run right at me knocking me over. Awow. A Twilight is there something wrong. I said that as Twilight began tighting the hug she had implanted on me in a fearish hold. Oh sorry Ben it just that we heard a large explosion come from your house and we thought that you were hurt. Well I thank you for your concern but I'm more than alright. When what was that blast. It was my clearing out more of the basement with C4 packs. I need the room to place my lab and ground bridge there. And I have about two more of those to do untill I can see if I have Enough room. Oh oK O and if anyone asks what it was tell them it as a earthquake.K Ok, Twilight said with a confused voice. In Canterlot Standing on a balcony looking through a telescope was one of the princesses looking down at the ponyville. LuLu what are you doing? Luna gasped at embarrassment of her sister was spying on somepony or one, I WAS DOING NOTHING! Oh come now I've found out about your ways before you started to get worried. Oh,luna sighed in relief and a bit of anger knowing that she knew that her sister always knew what she was up to. Soo tell me is this about him? Luna couldn't think of a lie to tell and said it anyway. Yes, I've just been curious about our new visitor Ben. I mean sure he's completely different like us but when he told all of us about his story and the hardship he went through I felt like it was when I was before I turned into nightmare Moon. Soo you have feeling that he can be on what you call One heck of a Colt? Luna smirked a little smile as her gave her sister a hug. Dear sister do you really think me and him can... I do luna I do. Back in Ponyville I was cleaning out the cave of what will be my new basement lab. Reforming the walls with metal sheeting, wires and pipes. I was at first able to get some things in like the weather Doppler, Radio receiver, a Ecto containment unit, and the ground bridge control panel. I plugged my watching into the main computer to run a diagnostic on its power and condition. Damage outcome Transformation dial: 12% Proton accelerator: 9% Hyprodisc: 2% Flight/power suit: 87% Flight Pack:92% Damn I'm really going to be busy getting that stuff fixed up but a least the watch and the proton pack still function perfectly. Books and Branches Library Ah Twilight what you searching for exactly? asked Spike. I'm looking for a book that can tell me more about this ground bridge that Ben uses. If I can find something about dimensional travel then maybe I can help him, said a crazy Twilight. Twi don't think you can I mean this is stuff no one but him knows about. **sigh** maybe your right spike, but in the mean time lets just help him in any way we can. there was a knock at the door. Twilight looked to see a letter sitting on the ground that said. Dear Twilight after you've read this message look at spike. ~Ben And right on cue of turning around spike flared up a letter from Ben. Spike handed it to her. Dear Twilight I know that some one of your knowledge would go straight to find a way to help. But at last you don't know what the ground bridge needs and is in the shortest of explanations. And I ask if you can drop by any history books based around the far past if possible. Place in a box at the fire house doors and I'll get them. ~from Ben p.s. I beat you're wondering on how spike got my letter right? Well lets just say that I found out about before Celestia and Luna came. Twilight looked at the in amazement. Like he just knew what was going to happen. Spike bring me any old books that date back about 1,000 years. Ok Twi. Back at Canterlot So luna have you thought about what you're going to do? asked a curious Celestia. Well isn't the Grand Galloping Gala coming up shortly? Yes it is. Tia responded I'm just happy that you're doing something like this... Me to sis. But remember Luna he's not use to our kind of things. I know 5 days later... Sugar Cube Corner SoyouguysreadyfortheGrandGallopingGala! said a exited Pinkie pie. Ya and hopefully this one will go smooth again. I dare curse who ever invites that Blue Blood again. Just then Twilight came in levitating a envelope. Hey girls I got our tickets. They all cheered as Twilight opened the envelope emptying it of the everyone grabbed theres. Twilight remembered to get spike a official pass through then turned back to the table. Strange I don't remember getting 8 tickets she said as everyone looked. Well maybe it was in there be accident. Dash pointed out. Spike flared up a letter as Twilight caught it. Dear Twilight am sure that your wondering why you have received 8 tickets for this years Gala and that Ben has yet to see or join in a equestrian event like this. Me and Luna have taking the liberty of making him a royal invite. After you have finished this please go to tell Ben and give him his ticket. Your grateful mentor Princess Celestia. Soo what does it say? said Applejack bitting into a cupcake. It seems that the princesses have royally invited Ben to this years Grand Galloping Gala. Everyone looked act each other. Wow he hasn't even been here for a week and he gets a royal invite chucked Rarity. At the Grand Galloping Gala Twilight and her friends had just arrived of the front gate of Canterlot to inside. The were greeted by Celestia and Luna dressed in their new dresses. Princess Is great to see you again. And to you to as well, Celestia Soo where is our new friend? Oh, He said he will be here but he said he had something to finish. Oh Ok, well now let's go inside. As if on cue a large flying object was spotted at the castle. As the guards to charged to protect the princess it landed Right In front of them in a Iron Man like stance. I slowly turned up to see they never saw the full suit. As I deactivated the helmet. I turn to see everyone staring at me. What? Did I miss something..? They just stared at the suit. It was a dark blue color with a red streak done the arms and a red and black down the legs. It had a pack attach to the back with a hose going to a gun on the right arm. I turned to the watch seeing has it was a bit much for them as I went back to normal. But even there they keep staring at the parts fold up to the chest plate then to the watch. Twilight saw that I as wearing A lament Blue suit underneath with a white ring around the shirt and a black and red strip down the legs. What? it was the only thing I had that was new,clean, and not bad looking other then my normal look. Well now that your here and the moment has pasted lets head inside and enjoy our selves. The six cheered on and trotted in be the two. I was about two feet away from the door with goose bumps everywhere. I felt something touch my shoulder Seeing the two princesses. Ben is there something wrong? ask a worried Celestia. No, it just that In some case I've been able to make a scene when I just walked in the door of something. plus I don't know what the others will think at the first sight of me. Both Celestia and Luna smiled. But you'll never know if you don't try. I smiled at the gesture. Come, we will help you adjust. Thanks. 2 hours later... It was a great time the mane 6 were enjoying them selves' a lot as the princesses meet with other rulers. I was preached up on a pillar looking at everyone. Thinking on how I could do the same without freaking anyone out. I sighed and saw a open door that led outside to a balcony over looking the city and land. I was about 10:20 at night and yet it didn't seem to die down. I propped up on the railing against a pole spawning a old guitar. It was hot rod red with a black neck and a sliver spiral. Back inside Celestia notice I was out side sitting alone. She felt a little concerned about me not being okay with being at the Gala. Luna saw Me to and she walked up to Celestia. Tia what do you think is wrong with him? I don't know Luna but lets see if we can cheer him up some. Back outside I took a deep breath and looked up at the sky thinking as I did so I slowly started playing a tone. And then it went off like a rocket. Just as I was starting Celestia, Luna, Twilight and her friends came out side. I ripped the tone out into a full blow song.( Three doors down Kryptonite because I knew that some songs can fit the mood.) As I began my voice change incredibly different as I play their jaws dropped. -4 minutes later After finishing the song a felt a bit relaxed on hearing something I knew. As I turned I saw them. I even blushed a little at the thought that they heard the entire song as I played and sang it. Ummmmmm how long have you guys been standing there? Since you started to really ripping it, Dash yelled out. Ben, That was remarkable I never even heard someone sing something like that, Celestia stated. Oh well, Thank you. I just do this in times for me to clear my thoughts out in down times. As I got of the railing a large explosion erupted from the main gates. Sir we have the boy's location. Excellent find him and destroy anything in your way...
Chapter 7: The Face of Darkness ...Me, Twilight and the other rushed to the gates to see what had cause the explosion. There stood 3 dragons about the same height as me covered in a gooy substance. Spike and the others look to see it was the 3 teenage dragons that tease spike and try to throw chaos in ponyville. But I looked to something horrorificly wrong. What happened to them?! yelled a scared Twilight. DON'T THEM TOUCH YOU IN ANYWAY! WHAT?! They all turn to me to a reason. That black stuff I 've seen it before its so toxic the slightest touch can have the most grave effects. WHAT IS IT THEN...They yelled out. Its Black Slime. At the moment of saying that the 3 three dragons turned to the group. GRAB THE BOY, TAKE THE ELEMENTS, KILL THE PRINCESSESS. We stared at the of they just said in a single dark, blood turning voice. NOT ON MY WATCH... I stood in front of the group looking at the watch. and slamming the dialer again. This time in a blackish red light. After the glow stopped I stood there wearing the Mark 21 Proton Pack. Modeled after the 1991 (video game pack) With a lot more modes. I also was wearing a pair of strange goggles, 4 square objects formed on my belt. One being a Sabar Trap, and meters. ( Sabar Trap: Custom High copacity slamming trap designed to take in any near by ecto energy through the sides when a ghost is being drain into the trap.) Everyone was standing there watching. Even the guess came out of the castle to see. Ben, What are you doing?! Im going to show you a light show.I said smirking a grin as I turned bak to the dragons. I reached back grabbing the thrower as blue energy siseled from the handle. I drew it of the hook slamming my thumb on the activator switch. Roaring the Proton Pack to life in its most well known sound. The accelerator lite up and began to cycle as the other models went online. Every one stood back as they knew a battle was about to take place. Celestia get everyone inside NOW. Without hesitating she did so leave her sister, the mane 6 and herself to watch on the steps of the castle. The large dragon shot up and fired a large ball of dark energy. But I easily deflected it with a large boson dart. Everyone stood back at the blast as I began firing a proton beam at them. Making then separate. I folded down the goggle seeing that they were really possessed back the slime. I switch to the shock blast and froze them in place. Princess what do think is going to happen them. I don't Know Twilight. After freezing them in place firing 3 large slime mines at them coating them. Ben what are you doing their already covered with slime... She paused to see the slime devolving the black slime. After the Stassis Beams effects broke the 3 dragons fell to the ground. But was caught be Celestia bring them to her and the group. Now it was just the Black slime ghosts that were very weak. I threw out the trap and Switched the proton beam. By now everyone was standing out side watching me wrangle one over the trap as a large cone of light opened sucking the ghost in. 1 down 3 to go. I muttered to my self. One ghost was charging straight at me. Only to be grabbed and slammed right into the trap in a flash of yellow light. That makes 2. I look around and couldn't find it. But then a large scream came as I saw the las ghost holding Princess Luna in its claws. Someone HELP!, Luna cried out. HOLD ON. Ben wait you will hit her, yelled a feared Apple jack. I know what I'm doing. I paused and switch the modes again. This time a purple light came from the accelerator as the throwers nozzle slit open and began to spin. A large ball of light built up as the lights flashed faster and faster. Untill I released the trigger sending it right at Luna and the ghost. The ghost shrieked in pain dropping luna. I ran and was able to catch her before hitting the ground. As she ran back to the group I turned back at the ghost reading an attack. It was like an old fashion western stand-off when the one guy is waiting for the other to make their move. It just about shot a blob of slime before I pulled the wrangler on him slamming him to the ground straight into the trap. And the third time is a charm. I picked up the trap as everyone began to cheer on that I won the fight. But I felt something off. I turned back to see a shadowy figure standing 10 yards away. Soo our the one called Ben if I'm not mistaking. Yes and it depends on who's asking. I'm the person who will END YOUR PATHETIC LIFE. I debt that. I said as firing a boson dart causing him to moan at the hit. WHAT KIND OF MAGIC IS THAT! The kind that will send you back to the nether world. You foal you have yet to see what I can truly do. He said as a large orange orb formed. And to began by killing your friends! He said throwing it to the group and disappearing. NOOOOOOO! I yelled out when sliding right in front of the object exploiting my hand. I was sent flying backward at by the blast. I slid in front of the group in horror of what had just happen. I lied there motionless. Blood was all over my arm and chest with burn patches on my cloths and equipment, BEN! everyone yelled Running to me. Celestia's horn glowed to stabilize me to stop the bleeding. A cart pulled up being pulled be two guards. Both Luna and Celestia levitated me onto it as we flew off to another part of the castle. 5 minutes later... At Canterlot hospital. BRING HIM OVER HERE NOW WE NEED TO STABLIZE HIM... GET THE BLEEDING UNDER CONTROLL... After five minutes from were I got hit hard by a large ecto blast in the castle court yard the princesses rushed me to the hospital from my intense bleeding and injuries. WHY IS NONE OF THIS WORKING DOCTER!? I DON'T KNOW NURSE... Waiting out side the group of doctors were Celestia in pure shock, Luna in tears, and the Mane 6 trying to hold them selves together. It wasn't even a week from when I arrived and yet right now I was on the brink of death. GET THAT WATCH OF HIM. WE NEED TO CONTROL THE BLEEDING.. IT WOUN'T COME OFF.. The docters tried to get the watch off but inadvertently trigged the watches security systems. Authorization deined. WEARER DNA DAMAGED BEING OPERATION REGENRATION. They all stood back as my body began to glow different colors. Most of my body glowed green. The areas where I was injured glowed a dark red an areas around it a yellowish orange. Then in a bright blue flash the red and yellow areas started to turn green with the wounds going away. Everyone ever saw anything like it. As the glow faded. the watched stated. DNA DAMAGE REPAIRED. STASSIS LOCK OPEN. After it said that I gasped for air. BEN! Everyone ran up to me. Giving me the biggest hug I've ever gotten. Luna was one for the moment. She's jumped up to me. Hugged me so tight I nearly lost my breath again. Ohh sorry... She said with a little blush on her face. Ben how did you... Remember when I told you about my powers. Will after I gotten the watch I had them linked to each other. The Matrix repaired and zoned out the problem when the watch detects the problem. But whats more important was what the heck that figure was. We want to know as well. And I want to know where the slime came from. What was that slime anyway? Ectoplasma or in simple terms Slime is a substance from ecto entities like ghosts and monsters. Fluttersky shrieked at the world of it. Slime comes in different colors and properties for different entities. A clearish green is the most common. Yellow slime is said it be a acid likesubstance that ghost coat them selves soo they can't be touched. Pink slime or Mood slime is a devilish form for slime that feeds off of anger, sorrow and other negative emotions. White slime is a prejen, Something that can help ghost gain energy till there strong enough to get sent out of the slime. Now Black Slime is deadly. It can open portals to the ghost world and spawn its own kind of ghosts,monsters,fielders and crawlers. It is also involved in the refinement of mood slime. But what was that dark green slime your shot at the Celestia. It is a reversed compound that has a positive charge in it. The tank on the pack regenerates it so that I have a nonstop supply. It able to destroy black slime, seal portals, weaking ghosts, find them in hidden places and even strip someone from a possession. They turned to each other with a puzzling look. But what happened tonight wasn't a Black slime event. But then what hit you?,asked Twilight. Even with out my power suit my clothes are able to inslate the slimes effects. Say a ghost would have chucked a blob of slime to you. ou would just be knocked down and gotten back up. Soo those green lights on the side of the pack showed how much strength you have. Yes, but there other stuff that. Dark Energon is one kind. But is rare times the crystal would make contact with Black Slime can make ... I stopped dead in my words to the sheer thought of it truly happening. Make what Celestia asked with concern. Dark Slime. Isn't that just black slime Dash pointed out. No no no. Dark Slime is pure blood of everything evil. Just being touched be a drop of it can be fatal. And whats even worse that With it so rare from where I am theres nothing to destroy it with. And if there was pools of this stuff here then this world has a big problem...
Chapter 8: Pedal to the MetalCanterlot- (Luna and Celestia talking) It has now been a full 3 weeks since Ben arrived to Equestria and he is still having difficulty adjusting to life here. Several days ago a evil force had shown itself to us all. And in the most incredible act of courage and bravery Ben put him self in harm's way to protect us. We had a completely new respect for him that it was true that he would protect anyone in harms way in a time of need and helplessness. Me and luna see that a new face of darkness like no other is apone them and that Ben maybe our only way to save our world and hope that he can find his way back home I still can't belive that Ben would put his own life to save me, Luna said. Yes, it does seem that even tho he's still not full use to us it seems that he already holds a part of us in his heart. And is to keep us all safe till his end, Celestia said. Its just that when he caught me from falling I was in pure fear but when I looked at him I had the feeling of warmth and safety. Then why don't you o tell him how you feel. TIA..Luna yell out. Come now don't tell me that yu have a little more for him to your heart then anyone else, Celestia stated And maybe you can do so on your day. What day? Luna asked a puzzled. You know..Nightmare night. Oh, I don't know sis I mean what if he finds out about what the day was ment to stand for?, Luna said with a worried voice. To me he's more then another living thing, its like he's the opposite version of me.. Well then why don't you go get to know him better. Learn more about him to get it started up, Celestia stated with a grin. Alright Tia. She said hugging her. Back in Ponyville...in the fire house. SUBSTANCE UNKNOWN. MINERALS 44287 THOURGH 45691.. OUTCOME FOR POWER SOURCE:FAILED DAMN IT, that's the 18th crystal that's useless. For the past week I have tested different crystals and power sources to power the space bridge. And none of they have been able to produce enough power. Keep it together Ben, you'll find a way. And for the few days I've tried to figure out what the dark figure was that shot me with Dark slime. I got up to go up stairs and take a break for working 3 days without sleep. As I went up the stairs to the second floor there was knocking at the door. Oh god, what now. Said in a dreadful voice. I climbed back down to the door. As I cracked it open I saw a gray peagus with blond hair and a derp like eyes. Yes? Delivery for ahhhhhhh...Hen. Its Ben. Oh ok, well here you go. Thanks, wait whats your name? Derpy Whooves, why you ask. Nothing for anything just trying to get the names down for others. OH ok. Twilights Library Spike have you seen my wizard hat? No Twi. You said you would go as something else. Oh, well what should I go as? I don't know Spike. Just put your crown on and be a princess. Oh haha very funny Spike. I hope this Nightmare Night is a great one. I heard that the princesses were coming to celebrate as well. Wow that's different. But what about Ben. I found a book on human world relations, one was called Halloween. Its something almost exact to Nightmare Night. Oh So I know he'll be ok after all, all he has to do is slam his watch and... Just then a strange sound came outside past the library. What was that Twilight,said a curious Spike. I don't know but let's go see. After walking out side they see two burn trail that fallow the path to the towns track court. On cue the rest of the group ran up to Twilight asking what the heck it was. What on earth was that terrifying nose?, Rarity Said. I don't know. I never heard a sound like that. Just then Rainbow Dash swooped down is guest of wind. OH MY GODASH DID ANY ONE SEE THE SIZE OF THAT THING?! We heard it sugar cube but we didn't see it. Applejack stated. What does it look like Rainbow Dash? I don't know what it is but it's covered by some gray metal with a weird stick on the back of the roof. I saw it heading to Ponyville's track field. Alright let's go girls. 5 minutes later... The girls finally arrived to the field to see a large metal object sitting in the middle of the track. They ran up to be looking behind it. Rainbow Dash pointed something out. Hey whats that say on the back of it? When she said that the girls looked closer to the name. Its says T I V, Twilight said. WhattheheckdothatmeanTwilight, Pinkie Pie specked out as everyone put a hoof on her mouth. Just then a slam cam from the object as something closed. Wait is that Ben?... As I closed the hood of the vehicle and sighed. Well old girl hopefully these upgrades hold up. And hopefully your changes could be added to the other cars. I said as I closed the driver side door, Just then the girls were making their way around the stands to see me inside. Whats he doing? Right on cue I turned the starter roaring the vehicle to life scaring Fluttershy a little. Begin functions test. I pulled 8 levers down lowering the 4 flaps and spikes out side to the ground then lifted them again.. I activated the air cannon sending a little tube in the air and landing through the roof's hatch. Wha..wha...what was that... Fluttershy said a little scared. Alright girl LETS SEE IF YOU STILL GOT IT!. I said slamming my foot down on the gas pedal spend the vehicle flying down the track. The girls watched in amazement for the machine going so fast. Even Rainbow Dash looked a little impressed. I rounded the next turns like they weren't even there. As I made the final turn I hit the overcharge sending the vehicle away like a rocket down the gravel path of the track. And out of nowhere a tornado had spawn from a cube on the road heading right at the vehicle. The girls gasped in horror as the machine speed even fast to the at a instant it stops and drops the flaps and spike again as the tornado goes over it and even throws parts of a tree at the vehicle. Hold on girl. I held down the parking brake in case the flaps broke( thank go they didn't) As quick as it formed the twister died leaving the vehicle a little messy. You still got the touch, I said grinning. Come on girls lets get down there. I hoped out of the vehicle as the girls came up to me. Oh hey guys what are you all up to. They looked puzzled at the gesture. Us? what the heck is this thing and where did that tornado come from? It came from spawners I made and the thing your looking at is a old part of my original life. The TIV3. The TIV?3? Rartiy asked. It's short for its full name, Tornado Intercept Vehicle I call it the Twister Impactor Vehicle. Its built to survive being inside tornadoes. Why would you build something for that. Few reason the top two is Data of the tornado and Video. Plus where Im from you get a lot of attention with it on the road. This one is modeled after the TIV2 How many are there? If you count mine and the last one known to be built about 16 but only 5 are named TIV. Well we came to see if you would like to go to Nightmare Night with us. Nightmare Night? Its something Like your worlds Halloween but we pay contribute to the night an its spooks. Well... Ok by I must warn you around times like this I can get a little strange. Why? Because with the time of year like this it would become a Paranormal Nightmare.
Chapter 10: Luna's Dream come TrueOk now lets run diagnostics and transformation sequence. Transformation success full. Alright I want to open her up some give me 35% thrust power and activation start-up in 3...2...1... It has been 2 weeks from the nightmare night accident and life has so far gone back to normal. Rainbow Dash lied in my bed sound asleep from working out to get her energy up. Me and Twilight were up on the roof testing the changes to the flight pack. Alright now lets see what we can do, give me full thrust power. Ummm Ben are you sure that's safe? If my math is correct then with this upgrade I'll be able to travel at mock 4 speeds. Even tho at nonstop dash can reach mock 6. And how fast was Mock 4 again? About 500 mph or about 700. Now lets test it in 3...2...1... OHHHHHHHHH... Canterlot Tia do you have a moment? Luna asked Sure lulu whats troubling you? It's just that when ever I try to get me and him alone it like something always gets in the way and I'm wondering if im the cause of it... Of course you're not the reason. Celestia said with a grin pulling Luna closer to her with her hoof. Even Ben has said that things happen for reasons. Some maybe connect, some are not even close. And you choose the way you can make them happen. What do you suppose I do? Luna asked. When he's alone and your alone go to him. Thanks Tia, Luna said hugging her sister. 2 miles away in the sky I was flying around like willy neily. I couldn't get the packs controls to work and I was dodging trees and mountains. I saw that I was near Canterlot as it sent me straight to a tower. Barely dodging it. I screamed as I was going right through another tower. LOOK OUT! But the person didn't dodge it in time. I opened my eyes to see that in my hands was a screaming Luna I thought to my self... How can this get any worse... Just then we went straight up into the sky. Before we could do again the pack lost power. Sending us plummeting to the ground a mile in the air. Luna tried to fly but couldn't concentrate and I was trying to get the pack to work. We fell closer to the ground I saw Luna was starting to cry.. I positioned my self in to the divebomb pose and angle my self straight to Luna. I reached out and held her close as we tumble to the ground below. COME ON YOU PEICE OF JUNK, WORK.!... In a sure part of anger I hit the pack. The accelerator popped out blowing a puff of smoke as it restarted. I got control back angling us away only to collide with a flower vendor. SORRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYY! I yelled out as I went right back to the tower. I let go of Luna right on her floor hearing a big thug on hit. SORRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYY! I said fling out the other window back to the firehouse Luna got up and rubbed her head. How do these things happen to me... Before she could finish she saw a blue and red rose place beside her. She then grabs the Blue one that had a note tied to it. She began to read the small note. To high in the sky to the ground below... Remember to never let go... After reading the letter she turned back to the window watching the stream of smoke from my pack. 5 hours later I was sitting on the roof watching sunset. I've done for the past 4 weeks. Sitting outside untill the moon was fully out. I try to find nice places to watch it happen. One was a hill sitting next to a lake with two trees half way up the hill. I would leaned back on the one part playing smoothing music as the sunset. ( and surprisely it was more closer to Canterlot then ponyville.) I would sit there untill mid-night when I would go back to the fire house. Luna was standing on her balcony waiting for the sun to lower for her to raise the moon. She look down at Crystal Lake and saw a blue light coming from the hill-side. It would be about 30 minutes till she could raise the moon so she flew down to investigate. I sat there playing old hologram recordings of past events. Remembering the old times when traveling from world to world for fun and discovery. At the end it showed a photo of me and my entire family. I miss you guys but your still in my heart. Just then Luna walked up from behind the bushes. Princess Luna what are you doing here. I thought you were going to raise the moon soon. I was but notice a light coming from the lake so I looked to see what it was. Oh' Was that your family? Ya, me my parents, sister... the whole shubang. Can I see it again? Sure Luna trotted over as she raise the moon into place and sat beside me. I can never get tired of that, it's the only time I can see it and all the stars in the sky. Luna Blushed at the comment. I started the watch back up to show the pictures again. Soo this are your army? Their friends along the way but in times their more than just that. I think of them as a bigger family that never stops growing. Just then a cold wind blew past us. I was wearing a sweat shirt to keep me warm when luna shivered at the sudden chill. She curled up to keep her self warm. I remove my sweat shirt placing it on her. She gasped at the sudden warmth as I leaned back on the tree. Thank you Ben. She said hugging the shirt more. But won't you get cold? Na, I've survived worse. Ben I have a question and I want to know yes or no. Sure, what is it? If something was to happen to me would you go to no stop to make sure I'm safe? Of course I would. I mean because of something else.She said placing her hoof near my hand. And so do I. I said grabbing hold of her hoof as she blushed. Can I... Yes. She placed her head down on to my chest to rest a little. She felt warm and safe for going so close to Ben. She felt that it was a dream come true to be loved. She thought to her self. He really does care more about me then I thought. I wish this moment could last forever... She said dosing off into a peaceful sleep. I sat there enjoying the moment as well. I looked up to see a twinkling star shining then looked back down at luna. I smiled and leaned down to her cheek. Giving her a little kiss. The next morning. Luna slowly woke-up to be in her room and bed. Oh by Celestia please.. that couldn't be just a dream. Just then Celestia walked in levitating a tray of food over. Morning moonshine brought you some breakfast. Thanks Tai So how did you sleep. She said pouring a cup of warm tea. It was a wonderful dream. Me and Ben were down at the lake and he said that he really did mean what I mean and gave me a little kiss... ... and what's on me. She looked to see that she was wearing a gray sweat shirt that said Raiders Foot ball team. She leaped in joy knowing now that it wasn't a dream but that it really did happened. He really does love me. She said hold the shirt tight in her hoofs. And I love him back. Later that day... Luna was on her why to see Ben. Last night was truly magical. Luna Saw that there was a gathering of ponies in the street. She swooped down to see what is going on. And saw Twilight in the crowd What is the now happening Twilight ? Ben found a trail of dark slime, he followed it to the towns...sewer. Ahhhhh, Luna was both disgusted and speechless. Just then I climb out of the sewer hole covered in green slime. Ben what happened down there?,Twilight asked. I found this little bugger flying around inside. Had to hose him down a LOT to get it in. I held up a jar of Dark slime but to everyone shock it moved. IT MOVED?! Neckromintour. Or in simple terms the start of a slime monster. What are you going to do with it? I'll take a sample from it and start breaking it done and try to reverse the negative charge in it. With that I'll be able to make a slime that can oppose Dark Slime 3 days later... After obtaining a pure sample of Dark slime I've run a multitude of tests to get a reverse effect and finally I've got it. I merged it also with the Regen green slime that way I can have a constant supply. I mounted it to a my pack and a new proton pack that I hope to get finish quickly. Before I could admire my progress the alarm came on. CLASS - V(5) Spitter DETECTED - SOUTH EAST LOCATION - SWEET APPLE ANCRES Well best time as any to test the new slime. I ran to Ecto 4x4c started the engine and siren and raced out to the ranch. After getting there a large ghost was attacking the house. Applejack and Big Mac kept on kicking apples at it but nothing worked. Twilight,Rarity,Rainbow Dash,Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie were there trying to help GET TO COVER , I shouted out reading the new upgrade. I remember the last time I fought a spitter. It was what had nearly killed me on the day of the gala. Ben Look out, Dash yelled. saw a huge blob of slime fling straight at me. I switch the modes and took aim. But this time Blue Slime came out of the slime blower nozzle with a blue after glow. Desolving the blob in mid air. About 5 minutes later the ghost was destroyed and the slime removed. This is the 5th time we've been caught off guard. And just my one proton pack can't do a job needed for 10 people. Well what should we do? They get past the pke disruptors, get stronger, and then go on a rage. I have a thought on what we could do. What? We made our way back to the fire house. I walked them down stairs in front of a large wall. Girls I'm going to make up into Ghostbusters. I slam a button on the wall, folding into two different parts showing a line of multi color proton packs, and 6 custom jumpsuits. They looked in excitement and amazement. Each proton pack was color coded to each of the girls with their cutie marks on the N-filters. There was two sets of each. To for each element of air,earth and magic so that they could be more fitted for the task. They strapped on the suits and packs, then looked at a mirror I had. Say hello to The Ghostbusters Unit EoH district Equestria Now.
Chapter 11: Bucked beneath the DeepAlright, fine I'll go but I'm not sure it's a good idea to go somewhere with all the problems here not to mention what happened to Dash. Come on Ben even you can't say that you need to get out and relax. Ya but even tho you guys are able to handle it its hard to just relax. Sugar cube you need to settle down from all the hard work you've been doing. No to mention saving the princesses and Rainbow Dash's life. Fine I'll go but I'm taking a P.k.e. and M.a.e. meters, No question. Fine fine can you get going I bet I can get there in less then 5 minutes. There I was sitting on a train with the six that some how managed to talk me into going to the beach. At first I wanted to stay and keep guard up but they said I needed to relax some of the tenons on me. I was still in the effects of what happened when I gave Dash the shard and known that there is a Dark Slime Demon Pinkie Pie makes me wonder of there are others. The train jerked to a stop tell me that we arrived. We are at a beach near the city of Manehatten and it was packed. I sat up a laptop, clipped the meters to the screen and scanned. At first ponies near by gave me a puzzled look until they saw the watch and saw that I was the one who stood guard for the royals. For most of the day went pretty well as the mane six enjoyed the sun. I even set up a 30 foot long diving board for them to use. Applejack and Dash enjoyed it the most. Pulling stunts of all kinds to see you can do the biggest splash. Rainbow Dash had just did a triple flip nose dive making the water shot up about 4 feet in the air. HA, you all call that a big splash. Let me show ya all what Mean Grandpa can do,Applejack yelled out at the end of the diving board. What's the mean grandpa? I asked Twilight. Oh no...Lets just take about 5 steps back and watch. Why... before I could finish Applejack had already jumped off in more of her way to buck tree launching her 5 feet in the air she took a cannonball like pose untill aiming her back legs to the water. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAA... In 5 seconds of her hitting the water nothing happened untill a large bowl of water shooting 12 feet in the air sending a 3 foot tidal wave to the beach. Thats a Mean Grandpa Damn, I think she splashed the contes away. I said with a chuckle. We stood around waiting for Apple jack to surface and be congratulated but after a minute we got worried. How long has she been able to under the most... 45 seconds at most. Just then a explosion of water came with Applejack flying with black tenticals wrapped around her legs pulling her into the water as she scream. I quickly acted running into the water and swam to her. But with of not knowing how to swim. I tried my best to stay as float as I made my way to her. BEN! HOLD ON IM COMING. Just then I get pulled under water which was almost crystal clear underneath. In the water a ball of pink slime like form was pulling us down. I try to arm the pack but couldn't because of the risk of a nuclear surge if slat water hit the core or went through the throwers nozzle. I looked over to see a red mist formed around Apple jack. She was bleeding from the grip of the tentacles. I pulled out a pocket knife cutting it out my ankle and swam over to her cutting th tentacles. But more and more formed and slowly made their way to us. I took off the watch placing it around her fore leg and slammed in the power suit. But this time in a ball of orange light because of the suit resizing to her shape to give her protection and air. I slowly pushed her to the surface with me. I felt a large tentacle pull me down as more wrapped around me. The ball of slime now in front of me slowly formed into a head then a full body. That of a shape of another pony. At first I thought it was Demon Pie but this time it had a horn with curly hair. Demon Rarity floated there as I struggled to break loose. With out the power suit I couldn't do anything. As her mouth opened to the size of her about to eat me I grabbed the proton thrower and activate the venting system opening the pack's accelerator cores letting out a huge white light as I shot the thrower. Rocketing me to the surface with my last legs of air. Back on the beach the others waited for us or something to happen. Soon a large orange object surfaced floating to the shore. Everyone at first thought it was me in the suit but when they saw it was in the shaped of a pony. The mouth/ face mask opened as the helmet retracted to the suit revealing Applejack with with cuts and slashes all over her with her legs bleeding very badly as she gasped for air. Just then I was sent flying out of the water with a proton beam behind me as I crashed landed near the shallow part of the water. I groaned as I got up and ran to te group and AJ. She was still wearing the watch as I dialed the repairing system. DNA DAMAGE TO SEVERE FOR REPAIRS HOST ENERGY SOURCE: LOW Everyone looked in shock that the watch couldn't fix Applejack. That she was already gone. I stood there in disbelief. Something that has keep me alive through death dyfing times wasn't working. I open my chest plate plucking another matrix shard. Placing it on her chest. OVER RIDE REPAIR SQWINCE CODE 10-61 CODE EXCEPTED BEGINING REPAIRS. The health colors formed has the crystal snaking her chest as a gasp of air was a reaction from the shard. DNA DAMAGE REPAIRED MATRIX LIFE SHARDS AT 78 PERCENT. A blank face to hold of me as Applejack slowly rose to her feet. But keep her down to rest. Ben what did it mean when it said life shards at 78 percent? asked a concerned Twilight. It's nothing. 3 hours later... Ahhhhhh what in the tarnation happened. You were attacked by another slime monster. Rainbow Dash said hugging her best friend. Really...? Last things I remember was getting pulled down and have Ben put his watch on me then after the flash of orange light nothing.. Wait where is Ben? Right here. I went back to the beach and recovered your hat. Thanks partner. As I took a step back a large sharp pain hit me in the chest making me fall back into a near by chair. Ben! are you ok? I need to go to Cantorlot. And tell Celestia something important. Why... Is it just to see Luna again. Dash said with a smirk. I stood there with a serous face as she stopped laughing . No... I need to tell her to prepare everyone in the land for events like no other. What...? If the dark slime made its way over 600 miles away from where it was first was found then that means theres a larger source of the slime sending it all over the land. How do you know that? Back in my world the when I was still getting new to the ground bridge I found I could also bend small parts of time. It's how I first meet the Ghostbusters in 1986. 3 years later we had a big problem happen again. Vego the Carpathian and the mood slime. I called him the Slime Master because he got his power from the mood slime running under New York City's old subway system. It flowed in the tracks where it built up at the museum where he was. Wait why would he be in a museum? He died in between 1400 to 1505 but his spirit stayed in the painting he was on or in the case in. After a year we found an island that was where the slime came from. Soo the slime was made by someone? Yes, his name was Shandor. We fought him in 1995 sending him into a billion pieces. But that wasn't the end of the slime. Later the island rose and sent Black slime monster,ghost,crawlers, and other creatures. I continue on explaining more of my story and about the problems that we could have with slime. But theres not even subways in Manehatten and if there's slime every where then how is it moving. Thats the one thing I want to know. And is all the more reason for me to ge to them and tell them this. But Ben you had help from dozens of others at the time... and in your world. And if this stuff is so toxic to you then how would you fight it? Only time would tell that. Spike go get me some ink and paper. Yes Twilight.
Chapter 12: Calm before the StormSome where in the west( Earth) Scienctists are in disbeleif of the year insanely quite tornado season that was said to be the worst on record. The years total count was expected at 1,850 but so far for the past 4 months have only produced less then 25 of that count and all were registered under SF2.( Strenghtened Furgitia Scale.) Rescent signs of the unexpected weather patterens may have something to do with the suns 11 year cycle. But on the bright side people all over the pains are happy of no threat from tornadoes. Equestria A S A large outbreak of tornadoes rage through the west flatting several towns, injurying 62 and killing 3. Weather Mantaners have this to say. We are exstremely conrerned for the weaher effects of this and for the past days was not created by any weather distract in a 1,000 mile radius and we are investitgating the uncontrolled weather patterns. Canterlot My lady we must do something of this problem. Many lives are going to peices by the strange weather that we don't know how is being made. I understand mayor. I'll send out royal forces to help in the recovery prossess. Some where in a field outside Ponyville I was sitting infront of 5 computer screens. Watching as the imagen on each one changed. I was sitting inside a Dow truck (Dopplar On Wheels) watching the weather to get a base line reading on the atmosphere. I Knew that the weather was crontroled by the ponies of Cloudsdale and I knew that they could change it at anytime. I was scanning the upper atmosphere where normal weaher would from. Twilight sat outside with my laptop watching the scans in amazement of such a divice recording the weather changes. She climb up into the cable to se more of the screens as I was raising the trucks Weather mass tower. So how do you like being in a Dopplar truck. Its great. I can learn soo much more about equestria's weather in real time. I pointed at one of the screen showing a green and yellow mass. See that. Thats a rain storm. The color show's the rains strenght from low green, med yellow to heavy red. Fasinating... Alright, lets pack up and get back to the fire house to upload the data. Alright... You do know I can still drive and you control the radar. REALLY! After getting everything packed up, Twilight getting comferable in the operators chair we went back to town. Which dispite it's size has path ways solid enough and big enough to drive me vehicles on. We pulled in the firehouse and lowered the elevator to the labs. That I added when remodeling the lab thats no the size of Cantorlot's ball rooms combined. After parking the truck we went back up stairs where Applejack and Rainbow Dash were doing so practice firing with their proton packs. Hey guys. ALR Sup. Getting some practice in for the packs I see. Ya, but thats not why here. Whats up? Well you know about th crzy weather Equestrai has been having. Yes Well me and the others at cloudsdale have being tying to find out why its been happening and scent you have Storm Chased tornadoes we want to know if you be able to help us. Hmmmm alright, but I need a way to get my vehicles up there. That wouldn't be needed we have a ground station already up. You can just drive it them there. Alright We got back in the truck as Rainbow Dash lead the way. ALRIGHT EVERYPONY MAKE WAY FOR THE BIG GUY. We pulled in hocking the horn if anyone didn't listen with the ambre lights flashing with the dish rotating. I saw it was like a camp site with tents set up and several peasguses. I stopped and turned off the truck. Most to some of them were shocked at the site of me and large blue object. The rest look normal, Maybe because they saw me at the Gala and Nightmare night accidents. A large pony walked up to greeted me. Welcome to our little station Ben. Thank you Rainbow Dash says that you can aid us in this drastic times. Well shes not wrong. All I got to do is set up and I'll be ready. I turned back to the dow, turned the key starting the engine and lights again. Starteling some. I hoped out and opened a large latch to another door that showed the entire inside of the trucks cab. Twilight was even amazed at it. I went over to a key borad next to the window, punched in a few letters starting the dish up. It lower to point straight around as it began to rotate letting out a little win after the pass. The screens light up in data charts, weather graghs and dopplar read out. I pulled 5 levers down lifting the truck in the air with 5 large metal bars and finally raised the 40 foot tall tower. She ready to go. Now we will be able to keep track of any storm activity around the next 1,000 miles. And to make sure its a uncontroller I programed the radar to detect your workers if they spawn cloud even and if their not near the storm then We'll know. For several hours I stared at the screens waiting for something to pop up. Twilight bring me a drink at times to keep me stable. Anything yet? Nope, And this is the one part of the idea of storm chasing that no one likes... Waiting. And question. how do your worlds tornado normal get formed. Well a peagus must find a clear area where no wind is at. they fly in a circular form at the ground or the sky. They concentrate the wind to form the tornadoes size and shape then whats ever near it gets sucked up. And for the past several days hat hasn't been the case. Pretty much Dash said trotting over. Anything yet? Not much. At times a small rain storm that only lasts for about 5 mintues. But I have been watching this one storm in paticuler. I clicked the mouse showing a large ball of red and yellow. A strong rain storm thats been getting a little stronger. Owww, ALRIGHT WHO THREW THAT...! We turned to see one of the workers on the ground rubing her. You alright? Dash asked. Ya but somepony dropped a heavy snow ball at me. She said pointing at a large white ball. Thats some werid snow. WAIT THATS NOT SNOW. They turned to me in confusstion as I tusted my pocket knife breaking the ball into 2 perfect parts. See these rings inside there water thats been frozen over and over again. Its a baseball sized peice of Hail. On cue another hail stone smashed through a nearby table. Soon it was raining hail stones the size of grape fruit. RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! Some one shouted. Me, Twilight and Dash ran back to the dow. I quickly closed the dishes hail guard sheild to protect it as we piled into the cab. After 3 minutes we walked out to see large hail stones and crators around us. Several ponies coming out from a near by shed, under tables and even from underneath the truck. Alright everyone it over now. I opened the hail guard as a new scan came in. No it's not. Everyone looked over at me as I turned on a large screen outside the truck for everyone to see. See that storm with the blue center... thats what just hit us. Now look theres 18 more of them behind it. Everyone's faces dropped at the sound of more stronger storms coming. I need to get back to town and ready the sirens Cantorlot YOUR MAGESTY! YOUR MAGESTY! REPORTS OF TORNADOES ARE BEING REPORT JUST OUTSIDE THE TOWN LIMITS OF PONYVILLE...
Chapter 13: Royal Tornado InterceptI WANT EVERY PONY IN THIS TOWN UNDER HIGH ALERT. Make sure that everyone is prepared for the worst and gets under ground in time. Yes Ben. I want some eyes in the sky. Radio in if you have a touch down with in a mile of the town. I'll have a live feed when you do. ALL RIGHT WONDERBOLTS YOU HEARD HIM!... It has been a crazy day. First it started as a normal get the data kind to a fight to figure out what is happening. After being hit by a large hail storm I found that the town and nearby areas were in a huge threat. Kicking a old habit right back into place. Twilight, get a message out to Celestia about the weather. Tell her to be ready for anything to happen. On it. Dash, I need you and Soarin to be my early warning system. Go through and start telling the news. On it. What can I do Ben? I turned to see Spike. I need you to be in here. When a blue circle goes around on of these storms I need you to radio everyone one where it is. Ummm Ok. I was in overdrive. It was like coordinating my old chaser armada back in the early days. But what are you going to do Ben? I have something back the firehouse that might help us. What? Before I could answer I flew off to the station to get ready a old war horse. She weighs 50,000 pounds and yet acts like she's on air. 5 inches of pure steel and armor. With a 3 ton coolant cannon... TIV X. Canterlot Princess Celestia!, Princess Luna! were having reports of storms heading in our direction! No need to be worried we are in a area where they can't reach us. Ok your highness. Do you really think their going to make it here Tia? I don't know Luna but knowing Ben he has something planned. Ponyville TOUCH DOWN, TOUCH DOWN TORNADO ON THE GROUND. Location?! Ya I see it too. This things really ripping. WE GOT 2 MORE FORMING. 2 MILES FOR SWEET APPLE ANCRES. Dash, Soarin that's your cue. On it. Ben, where have you been? Twilight asked panting from the run she had. I grinned as I pressed a large red button on the wall. Coming on Apple Bloom we need to get out of here! Apple Jack yelled to her sister under the roar of the wind. Look out! In the matter of minutes 17 tornadoes where on the ground south of Ponyville. Two were entering the Apples farm. Come On! Watch Out!.. Apple bloom yelled. A large metal plow was flying straight at them. They huddled together for protection. But where distracted by a strange noise. Before the could see what it was they were being picked up and sitting on a metal floor. We got them. DEPLOY FLAPS, SPIKES AND THE CANNON. Cannon? They said in unison under the sound from the vehicle and tornado. Coolant cannon ready. Hold it until it hits us... FIRE! A large blue beam shot out of the roofs turret spiraling into the tornado as it went over us. Apple Bloom was screaming out loud as Twilight and Applejack held on to the railing. And the only one who wasn't in a state of terror and panic was Granny Smith, sound asleep on the fuel tank. Just before the core hit us the two tornadoes died. We undeployed to head out back to camp. WHAT IN THE TARNATION WAS THAT? Microwave Coolant. Tornadoes need warm air to live and if made contact to this stuff it can kill them out. Ben do you read, its Spike. What do you got on the storms? Everyone is reporting that the twisters are dying. And is that the bad new...? I said hearing the tone of his voice knowing something bad was going to happen. All the storms are colliding to one nether. Oh No What? whats so bad about that? He said the storms were colliding, they're merging together. And with all the warm air and rotation combine you can get a Supercell and at times extreme twisters some that can reach SF4 or 5. ooh Spike we're on our way back. Stay on the radar and track the cell until it's past the town's limits. Got it Ben. 7 minutes later... After scrambling to get the word out of the storms all seems to be passing. But the sound of Spike's voice makes me feel that it isn't over. We arrived back to the Dow were Rainbow Dash and Spike were watching on screen showing the large storm system. Whats its track? What? Spike said. The track...its direction. Oh... Its heading east about 59 miles per hour. Wait... isn't Canterlot in that direction. Ya but its on a mountain. Theres no way it can make it there. I debt that. Why? This storm or supercell needs warm air to survive and get stronger. And judging by the time of day right now its going to cross over the side where the sun is hitting it. And not to mention any energy that's in its path. Well what can we do? Dash asked. Try to set up cold snap barriers. Try to cut of as much warm air as you can. I'll try to modify the cannon to put out a larger amount of coolant. Ben THE STORM IS INCREASING SPEED. ITS GOING NOW 85. It must of hit one of those pockets. We need to get to the castle and warn them. How were 5 miles out of Ponyville and by the time we get there the storm would be right outside the castle. Hmmmmm well I guess this is the good as time as any to try out the upgrades. I walked over to the TIV placing my hand on the back fuel tank. The vehicle glowed for a second as metal inside was heard moving. Alright everyone all aboard. Wait a darn second. When you came and got us we barely fit in it. Soo how the buck are the 8 of us going to fit in it. Even after almost a year Applejack you still under estimate me. Now without wasting any more time. Hope in... After open the door Apple jacks jaw dropped when the small space became a large room able to hold a house. Holy... Find a set and hold on. Twilight I need you up front to track the storm. Dash I need you to get the cold snaps ready. Apple jack how well are you at aiming. Im the best in the whole town. Hop in the turret, You'll man the coolant cannon. The rest of you just hold on. We pulled in and flew off to Cantorlot. Twilight keep her eyes glued to the laptop watching this deadly storm get closer to her home. Cantorlot Tia I'm getting worried. So am I. By now any storm that would try to reach would die out or get diverted by somepony. What should we do? Maybe Ben knowns something about this. Stranger things are in his line of work. Your Majesty's Ben and the mane six have landed in the courtyard. Landed? They walked out down to the yard to see me,spike, and the six stepping out of a large object. Ben what is this thing? Celestia asked. Its a TIV. Luna pointed out. How did you know that? It says it on the back and wings. Oh, well now that's past we have a bigger problem forming on the side of the mountain. We have been watching the storm from here. We thought it would be moved by now by weather management. Princess this isn't a pony made storm. Every thing that its done it did it self. Twilight stated. You mean its alive? Not really. These kinds of storms form off of strong winds, warm moist air and cold dry air. It's cloud base is so tall that it has a strong cold down draft with miles of warm air in its path to feed it. And the storms energy that it combined formed this sucker into a supercell. And we could expect seeing a tornado outbreak or SF5 but that was 5 miles back. Now that it has the largest energy boost a storm could ever get that can drop a SF7-I How bad can that be? Say your in a ditch looking eye level to a field with a house there. After a SF7 the house would never exist and the ground level would be down to your knees. They stood through in shock of realizing what was on the way. What can do about it? The only way in nature is this thing to keep going up the mountain and hit the lower atmosphere. Dash and other peagus's are trying to set up cold snap blocks to break up the air flow. Soo far no luck, Only slowing it down by a fraction. Where can we put the citizens for protection. The deeper they go under ground the better. The castle's dungeon would do very will. Just then Twilight ran around holding a laptop in her hove. Ummm Twilight how did you get that off the clamps? NO TIME TO EXPLAIN. THE STORM IS ABOUT TO HIT US. Celestia I need you to bring me the coldest thing around here. What why? Before a answer could be said a crack of lightning struck a tire making it exploded in half.. The clouds began to spin as ponies ran out of their homes screaming about what is happening. Twilight go help the others get everyone to the castle. Alright. COME ON EVERYPONY LETS GO. Rainbow Dash yelled directing ponies to the castle's dungeon. Celestia was running up levitating a orb. Ben would this work? A better question is what is it? Its a Chanel ball. Cast any spell through it can increase it by 10. Before anything else could happen a two by four lands right in the ground. IT WILL WORK NOW HURRY. We both hoped in the TIV locking the doors. Celestia ran over to put the orb in the cannon as I deployed the anchors. Ben Its ready. I ran down the steps to the seat of the cannon as the large tornado was nearly 50 yards away. CELESTIA GET TO THE CAB AND HOLD DOWN THE BRAKES. OK I loaded the cannon and armed it to auto stick controls.( Joy stick firing) She's locked and loaded. I said hoping back into the driver seat. By then damage started to pumble the armor as Celestia sat in the passenger seat with a scared and amazement look. I pressed the button firing the cannon sending a white beam in the top of the tornado. The winds howled as a large piece of wood flew right at the passenger door, slamming the lock. ( Im mean really it was a piece of wood traveling at 400 mph.) With out a second pass the TIV's 500 pound door flew open. HELP! Celestia was getting pulled in the vortex barely holding on the seat. I reached out in time to grab her hove. HOLD ON!. I started to lose my grip setting the cannon on over fire. COOLANT RELEASMENT 9O% I grabbed on to her pulling as hard as I could. She held on the door's handle for dear life. Before she lost her grip I pulled her in closing the door behind her. YOU ALRIGHT...? Yes...Thanks.. The winds died done out side as I undeployed. Lets get back to the castle. I turned around and drove back through heavy debris. But to a huge surprise most of the buildings outside the castle were just scard by the wind with soo broken windows and roofs. When drove on seeing that nothing inside the area was hit. Looks like the storm wasn't able to make it. I smiled as we pulled up seeing the others walk out. TIA! Luna yelled out running to her. You alright... Yes Lulu I'm fine. But it wasn't for someone's bravery. She said turning as I walk around the front of the vehicle. Ben! Wait wha.. Luna shouted running over to me wrapping her fore hooves around my neck. Thank you so much for keeping my sister safe. No...problem. She raised her head up to over look me. Like she was about to do something crazy. But stopped seeing that everyone was watching her. Haha sorry...she said blushing. After a 4 hours of cleaning up we meet back at the castle to go back to ponyville. Ben... Yes Celestia This has being bugging me for the past weeks and I want to know. It this event and others were a response to the slime what happens if it gets to strong. Have faith, were there's darkness there's light She smiled at the pleasing answer as we all got back in the TIV to fly back. Before I closed the door I had a felling of something watching me as I drove out. He's getting weaker by the day... When he is weak enough we shall finish him... Said the Demon Rainbow Dash.
Chapter 14: River of Slime. Junction City...2 years ago... . How is he Perceptor? Well...His shards are weaking. After the degenerations and saves its been slowly killing him from the inside. Soo in a time matter prime. If I use my last crystal the chance of surviving is low. Is there anything possible to slow or stop the effects, Optimus asked. Yes but... The only way so far that has been able to work is a new holder. From there they create their own shard. And so far no one has been able to hold its power... . Manehatten (Equestria) Present . Hey John come over here. I found something. What now Stan. Look at this stuff. What is that. I don't know, I found a puddle of it when finding an old tunnel. Hey did it just move? HEY ITS STUCK ON ME!... HELP... . Ponyville . It has been a long week. I spent most of the time helping the town rebuild after the tornado outbreak. I sat in the barn of the apples farm placing new roof titles. Note to self...remember to make more building patches. (Building patches are custom regenerator that are able to reconstruct structures) I was staring off into space holding the watch up trying to get any signal from anything. Ben, you alright? Twilight asked walking over. Oh, no, I'm fine it's just that its being too quite for the slime activity. It's like its all gone off some where. Ever scenes the demon Twilight, Apple, and Shy disappeared it's just... Been strange not knowing where they are or what their up to. Ya... And with six of my shards now in the six of you guys I've been getting worried. About what? When I first faced off the figure he took a hard punch then I did then after the Demon Pinkie it showed one of my... Then when the Demon Rarity attacked I struggled to free me and apple jack it was stronger and I was weaker. Soo the more you use the matrix the weaker you become. With you guys now holding a shard they can't touch you but then puts others in harm's way. We can give you the shard back... No, it doesn't work like that. Once the crystal is merged into someone it stays with them untill their death. Then after that I don't know what happens. Oh... Then what can we do to help. Not much stands at this point. Unless we're able to find out where the slime went then this world won't be safe. I just don't see why its so important o keep finding it. I turned to her in a serious manner. Twilight I know that world is use to having a problem come up, fix it or it goes away for good. Not this slime. Even before I was pulled into the portal me and several others were already fighting the slime. When we stopped Shandor and sank the island were the slime came from we thought it was over. 10 years later It came back with a bang. We never saw the end of it. And if this world as slime 50 times worse then any other I guaranty you my bottom dollar it will come back. Twilight. We turned to see Spike running up to us. Enjoy the run spike.I said smirking a grind for the joke. Haha very funny. Twilight you got a letter. Really who's it from. Your parents Really! She ripped the seal off and began to read. Dear Twilight. Its been some time scenes we've written to you and are hoping that your doing well. We're vacationing in Manehattan. Your father went to one of those parlors and lost a good 50 bits and is trying to find a way to make it up. Any way we hope that you can come join us and your brother. Your loving mother Twilight Velvet Well what does it say Twi...? My parents are in Manehatten for a vacation and want me and my brother to join them. Manehattan? Isn't it a big city that's like a island with a tall green statue in front of it? Ya how did you know that? You know the name I use for the city called New York. Ya Well the island it sits on an island called Manhattan with others beside it called Brooklen, The queens, and the Bronx. It seems similar to Manehatten but it's not called New York. Hey maybe its a good time for you to meet my family. Wait wha... Once again not knowing now how in the name of god she convinced me to go. We pack up and went to the train station. When we placed our bags in I walked out and slammed the watch into my suit. Ben what are you doing? I'm not sitting on that thing for another 3 hours again. I said flying off as the train pulled away. A long 40 minutes later. I was sitting down at the train station. It would be a good two hours until Twilight would show up with the bags. Well if its like home I should know my way around the city. I got up and made my way to the streets. It reminded me of new york in 1950 but with some modern age touch to it. I walked down the sidewalk smiling. Seing some place that felt a but like home. As I did most ponies would stare at me and wave. knowing who I was. I had fun for a good amount of the time and yet still had a hour. I stopped to get a drink of lemonade and the tender said it was on the house. Just then a white cart stopped on the block. Looking like a ambulance. Five ponies set off including 3 dressed like construction workers and the other 2 paramedics. I saw the one on a stretcher, A shaded blue with a gray mane. But caught my eye was what he was covered with. A purplish black slime... I dropped my drink realizing it was Dark slime residue. I ran in after the group dialing the Slime blower mark 7B. Which like Mark one from 1989 it was still a huge tube with smaller green tanks but out fitted with Blue Plasma Slime. I ran to the room were the doctors tried to hold down the out of control pony. STAND BACK! I pulled back the lever sending a slurry of blue slime all over the bed and pony. HEY WHAT THE!? I stop seeing that I removed the slime and made the worker a mess. Sorry, Figure you could use some help. Ya thanks. Before I turned I saw something in his mane. It was a patch of slime that was hidden when I sprayed him. By the holy light...Were did yo find this... In a old under ground tunnel. Why? Show me After cleaning up the room of the slime, removing any trace of dark slime we made our way to the Street(manhole)cover on the side-walk with construction gear every where. This is the place, he said as we walked down the latter in to the sewer. I large small hit then passed as we walked down to a big hole in the wall. I grabbed the pke meter to check energy levels. They read a 6C in the scale. What ever you found down here it very strong. I took a step through the hole that showed a bigger square tunnel with platforms on the sides and what looked like train tracks running down the center. How far does this go back? We don't know. We only went about 40 feet until we found a puddle of the slime with a trail behind hit. We had someone try to find out what this was doing here but never got anything back about it. And every other worker is scared to death coming down here. Hmmmmm Would it be alright if investigate the place at times. Well sure, nopony will be down here for along time. Just then the watch beeped. I check that it was 12:00. Ahh crap... I raced out of the hole and flew off. First into the water to get the stank off then through air grades back to the train station. Just in time as Twilight got off the train. Ben? what happened to you, you look like you ran a 100 mile marathon when holding your breath. Oh haha very funny. Ah Twilight there's something I need to tell you later. What? Just then a taxi pulled up. Just...Later... We got on as it pulled us to the hotel. A puzzling thought was stuck in my head. If the slime is flowing under the city then where is it coming from and where is it flowing to... That will be 3 bits. Here you go. We got to the hotel, walked in the lobby as Twilight dashed over to three mares. MOM! DAD! SHINING!. Twilight they all said in unison. It great to see all you again. You to Twilight or should I say princess. Mom... Ah I don't mean to break up the reunion but where can I put theses bags... Sorry Ben. Oh Ben I like you to meet my family. My mom Twilight Velent, my dad Night Light, and my brother Shining Armour. Hello. They at first thought of how big I was compared to them and how I looked. You're the human... (Jesus christ I've been here for 9 months and their still surprised) He's more than that mom.. he saved my life, my friends and even the princesses. Soo you're the one who took the shot into the chest protecting Celestia and Luna. Said the white pony with a dark blue hair. Yes. And the one who came from another dimension. Yes... Soo why are you here. 3 things, 1. It was Twilight's idea, reminds me a lot of home, 3. I'm searching for something. What? You don't want to know. After getting settled in and unpacked Twilight sat down and talked about her adventures to her parents. Mean while was Sitting at a desk in another bed room analyzing the data I got from the tunnel earlier. Come on this can't be right... The city plans doesn't have anything under 30 feet of the surface. Just then Shining walk through the door. Ben what are you doing? Oh just going through data I found but you won't understand what it's for... The Dark Slime. for...and how did you know that? Twilight.. She told me about how you got here, what you do and did. Ya And I want to say thanks for keeping my little sis safe. No prob it's what I do. Soo you think you've found slime yet? I'm not sure. This data was taken from a sewer tunnel hole and this has been the strongest readings I've ever gotten. I plan on going back to the tunnel to get a deeper reading. Need any help with that? We turn to see Night light standing in the door way. Dad? The girls are going out tomorrow to get their hooves done and do some shopping. Soo it leaves me and shining a little free for the time. And this can be a repayment to you for saving my daughter. Hmmmm I don't know. How well are you two with a particle accelerators? What...? The next day We got up, ate breakfast and ready for the day. Twilight and her mother left leaving my and the guys here. I'm still not sure you guys should come with. I've been in places like these that would scared you to insanity. We can handle it. Alright... We got down to the lobby, hailed a cab and went to the site. Here you may want to put these on. It's stinks down here and you'll need to get use to the packs. We're set. We climbed down the ladder back into the sewer and made our way to the hole. At first they hesitated but when through What is this place? Shining asked with a hint of fear in his voice. When I first came her I thought it was an old matience tunnel but it turned out to be a 400 year old subway system. Soo what are we looking for mainly? The workers said they found a puddle of it a few yards ahead. It looked ike it flowed to the spot and we're looking for we're it flowed from. I said pulling out a Pke meter and goggles. After walking for a good 10 minutes. we got to the point where they found the slime. Anything? Strong traces of slime residue but nothing yet. And according to these reading it flowed about 15 feet from its origin point. We keep walking until we were met with a collapsed tunnel. No what. STAND BACK! Me and Shining ducked out-of-the-way as Twilights dad ( Night Light) shot a boson dart at the cracking wall. A LITTLE MORE WARNING NEXT TIME! YA DAD. Sorry guys but look. We turned to see a hole placed in the tunnels wall. At first we thought it was because of the shot but left a breeze through the hole. Fire another one. Te second shot removed the rock reveling a stair case that lead down some where/ See if you can get a scan now. I walked over with a frustrated look and scanned. It has the same readings as the tunnel... WHAT DONT MOVE! Shining had almost stepped in to a blob of slime on the ground. What...? It seem that it flooded up to this point, forcing some through the cracks in to this tunnel. And lucky for us we missed the high tide. We continued down avoiding the slime patch that almost seemed to be speaking. After going down a good 30 feet until it leveled out into steel grades. How far do you think this goes Ben? I said no response as we keep going until we saw a pinkish light. There... We walked down a flight of stone stairs into a large arch like chamber. We then looked down...4 feet away flowed the place were the slime came from. Gentlemen say hello to the River of Slime... They stood there in shock of the roaring river of ooze. Soo now what? Shining asked. We find where its flowing from and stop it. How are we suppose to find it.. unless you want to walk in a slime river. Hey guys would this help. Night yelled out. That'll work. We went through an old hall way that seemed to fallow the tunnel. It was a bit tight for me even with the slime blower but I still made it through. 10 minutes later... Why did we stop.? Dead end. Looks like we're at the end of the line to. We walked out of the door showing that we were in a larger station with rivers. This can't be right. Its coming from a wall? Soo now what..Shining muttered. Hmmmm At first I was stumped but remembered old tricks ghost like to may halustions. Slime it... With out waiting we all fired the streams at the ruble dissolving in a screeching sound. After reloading we saw that it was a large metal door that seemed to be a flood gate. You think we can wrangle that shut? Shining suggested. Maybe... but we need a way to get to the other side tho. I can teleport us. once the gates down. Alright The two of them wrangled the heavy iron gate slamming it blocking the one of the rivers. Holy sweet mother of joesive... We walked in a gigantic black chamber that was flooded with Dark Slime. Soo much slime... This must be the disruption center. Look there's more tunnels. But they're all blocked. Leaving these two the only ones. Ben you all right? Ben? I stood there in disbelief. We were standing in the labs of shandor island. I turned to see in the back was a giant water fall of dark slime. Alright guys...lets seal that gate. We walked over to the huge flood gate that separated the water fall and the tunnels. But an uneasy feeling was in my mind that this had happened before. On 3 1...2...3... They fire two particle beams when I hosed it down to slam the gate shut. CLLLAAANNNNSSSHHH... The gate slams into the slime. But the unexpected happen. Ah Ben why is the slime rising?! OH NO(SHIT)! Before we could say anything else three large blobs rose for the slime. Forming into three 25 foot tall monsters... Just then the gate starts to bend out from the strain of much slime on the other side. RUN! We made a wild scramble to the tunnels barely dodging the monsters. LOOK OUT! I quickly grabbed Shining out of the way of a slime blob. We ran to the tunnels. SHINING GIVE ME SEE YOU THROWER. OK I put the pack on full power and slammed back the flood gate but with slime squeezing through. Melt and Weld! We fired away at the door as hard as the pack could welding the gate to the rails. We need to get out of here. BEN WE HAVE A PROBLEM Night yelled out, THE HALLS ARE FLOODED. That leaves one option left. I said turning to the track where the river flowed. Are you insane... what if the gate breaks and we don't make it in time. DO YOU HAVE ANY BETTER IDEAS... As an answer the gate started to leak at the bottom. Time to go! We hoped down into the tunnel and booked it. Ben...what happenes...if the gate breaks...and we're still in the tunnel.? Shining tried to say under his breath when running. We'll quite literally become one with the flow... And what what was that noise?! The flood gates had broken off do to the sheer amount of slime now flowing like a raging river through the tunnel. GET UP TO THE SURFACE! We hoped out of the tracks back up the old stairs and through the tunnel. ITS GAINING ON US! THERES THE HOLE! We dashed through but I stopped at the hole taking of the slime blower. BEN WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! Night shouted out climbing up the ladder. I CAN'T LET THE SLIME REACH THE SURFACE. Pack self-distrust in 10..9...8... I tossed the pack off and the middle of the hole and ran to the ladder. . Back on the street . Twilight and her mother were walking back for shopping talking. Soo Twilight why did you bring him to our world? Well when I went to the mirror world and first meet him I was little freaked out, confused and curios. And I felt some how more safe around him when me and my friends were in a helpless time. Really now is there any thing else why you brought him here. Twi's mother said smirking a grin. Mom... What I just figured you did because you felt special to him. I do as a friend plus I think somepony already has his take... Hey is that dad and Shining? They turned to see Night and Shining scrambling out of a sewer hole. They ran over to them. Honey whats going on... Just then I hoped out of the hole. Ben what are you... FIRE IN THE HOLE! On cue a large explosion erupted from the hole shooting dust out into the air. Catching the attention of other ponies around. Ben what the hay happened down there? A old dark memory returning. We found the source of the dark slime. Its flowing under the cities in old tunnels. Ok then what was that blast. The tunnel that the workers broke through was getting flooded I set one of the slime blowers on self destruct to seal the hole... Is that what you meant when you need to tell me something later. Yes...but now we have a big problem on our hands... The slime is flowing again...
Chapter 15: Across from HomeIts been 4 weeks scenes me, Shining and Night had discovered the flow of dark slime under the city of Manehatten. After sealing the hole to the tunnel I've tryed to find a way back to the river to find out where the dark slime is coming from. Even Celestia and Twilight are worried about finding the source... But after the past events something buried under ice comes back to life with a roar... .- Ponyville...around December on earth... .- It was snowly like insanity. Twilight and the others were in Sugar Cube Corner enjoying mugs of hot chocolate. Boy oh boy this year winter wrap up in going to be the biggest one ever if it keeps snowing like this. Your darn right, I can barely keep my fields clear enough to get the darn dirt seen. And all the poor poor animals and under all of that snow. They be alright Fluttershy,they know that you'll be able to help them when you can. Just then a rumbling sound with bright yellow lights stop by the door. Seems that Ben's here. I open the door letting a cold wind blow throw the store. Hey guys enjoying the weather.I said smirking at the joke. Hi. Ben the usaully. Hey Pinkie, ya but this time more sugar. I'm probible going to do a all nighter again. I've been busy keeping the towns roads and paths cleared of nonstop snow. I even modifed the TIV to have a large front plow with tracks on the back axles ting to help keep the town flowing in the harsh cold. Soo Ben any sign if this is a no controller again? I checked the doppler and it all points to a natural accuring snow storm. Well I better get back out before it gets to deep to drive in. See ya later Ben. Twilight yelled out under the wind. Rainbow Dash flew up to the window as I drove away. You know guys even tho he's is stuck here he seems be feeling like it's home. Your right Dash. Dispite the hard ship he's gone through here he just seems like the normal day pony orrrrr persion. Twilight said. Lets just hope that he's able to take this force out of Equestria...and wheres Rarity and Spike?! I think she said something about going out to find snow stars and needed Spike to melt the snow away. WHAT!? .- Somewhere outside of town .- Rarity, in the fact of the extreme weather and cold took the liberty of going out to find snow stars. She said something about creating a FFrost Dimand lineof dress. Ra...Rarity...are you sure we should be out here...its freezing out heeeerrrre. Come now Spike this snow isn't going to melt it self Rarity said in a giant over coat. After walking for 30 minutes they find a ice cave. Here we should find some good eat this spike. She hand Spike a green emeral the size of a melon. Fine,but only becuase I'm hungry. He eats the crystal in one bit letting out a colosel fire ball through the tunnel. Revealing several snow star crystals. Good job now Spike She said chipping off shards. After a good 15 minutes the winds start to pick up outside. Rarity we need to go, the storms getting worse. She didn't answer because she was fixed on getting a shard the size of a tire out. In a moment Spike...just can...you...help me get this...OUT Fine. He slowly breathed a trail of fire melting more of the ice away revealing more and more of the crystal. Ahh Rarity...this ground is...! Before he could say anything he ground caved in to the crystal. Rarity are you...! What was that Spike...! They both stood there in shock of what was in the crystal. WE NEED TO FIND BEN. .- The Fire House .- I had just pulled inside to garage and hoped out. I was freezing to the bone for the cold and after all I was in a metal vehicle for about 4 days streight and had only one heater vent working. Note to self fix heater and air condtioner. I walked upstairs to be greeted by a nice warm blast of air. Before I could sit down to relax for a bit the doors on the garage doors swung open. ( You have the main 2 doors with 2 smaller doors built in it) BEN YOU HERE? I heard from the main garage Spikes familier voice. Not wanting to yell I got on the loud speaker. I'm up in the kitchen Spike. After saying that the door swung open showing Spike on top of Rarity with udder scaredness and shock. What happened to you guys it looks like you saw a monster I said wih a chuck. WE DID! You sure, cause remember last time when you thought a slender pony was outside your window and when I got there and shot it it was a tree with a broken sign on it. Rarity stood there in frustration of the memory as I took a drink from my thermis. But that's not all we saw Ben. Then what did you see.I said still drinking. We saw another human... I eyes shoot wide open making me send my drink fling into the window dropping the container. WHERE...?! We hoped back in TIV and drove back to the spot were the figure was found. At first if someone would say something I would take it lightly to moderite but with the word human in it makes me go on high alert. This is the place. Are you sure you saw one? Yes,but it was... Before she could say anything we stood in front of a large blue crystal with a tall dark figure and a small one inside. I stood there in shock of what I was seeing. For the first time in two years I see someone that I thought I would never see. Spike eat this and let it rip. Umm ok... He eats a red stone and lets out a stream of fire melting the crystal down to free the figures. It seems that they fell into a stassis before being froozen. We need to get them back to the lab NOW. How the one can't even fit through the cave. Please god lets this work. I siad aiming a blue rod on my arm to the figure. Ground Bridge: ACTIVIATED Ben what are you doing. A blue stream ingulfs the figure with a green grid making it smally shrink down untill it was gone. BEN WHAT DID YOU DO!? Come on lets get back to the fire house. Still In shock of what happened we pulled into the fire house. When arriving Twilight and the others were waiting inside. Twilight how did you guys get in here. You left the doors unlocked. I rolled my eyes in frusteration. Any way we came to if you can find Rarity and spike. Why would you do that Twi. Just then Spike and Rariy past me and gets hugged by the others. Now thats past I need to work. On what... Follow me. We made our way to the basement lab where a large portal formed in wthe ground bridge tunnel. Ben you got the portal to work? Not really. Its power source is very weak and can only be used in a emergency but thats not what I wanted to show you. We walked over to a large table with a metal figure. Ben what is that. Remember when I told you about the transformers. Ya. ANDTHISISONE! Pinkie said hopping on the robots chest. Yep and this is a speaical one. He's a Dinobot named Swoop. A what bot? Before any thing the robot slowly rose up rubbing his head. Awww what happened...? Easy Swoop you where in temperatures that had put you in a critical zone. Ben...Ben...BEN! The bot jumped to his feet picking me up in his hand. BY THE ALLSPARK YOU'RE ALIVE. EVERYONE FEARED THE WORST. WE'VE BEEN DOING EVERYTHING IN THE BOOK TO FIND YOU.. Well you can see that I'm quite fine let alone better. Just then he saw 6 horse like figures and a little dragon around me. Ahh Ben what are those and where are we?! We're in a world called Equestria and these ponies are who inhabit and are my close friends. This is Twilight, Rainbow Dash,Apple Jack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Spike, and Rarity. Their names. Okay... But speaking of where we are how did you get here. Me and the Dinebots where in Iacon. The city was under attack. Shockwave captured Bumblebee, Jazz and Jetfire. Optimus busy with Megatron. Even I was having trouble under standing what he was saying. Swoop, take a deep breath and clear your thoughts , tell us what happened. Ok... Megatron thought that with the inactivity he could take down Iacon. And was hopping to take take the Matrix of Power from you. He threatened to kill her and use her as Shockwaves lab expirement. Me and the team fought our way inside was to free her and stop Shockwave. When we got to her Predaking and others attack us. Grimlock went to get Shockwave but smashed the space bridge controlls sending all of us here. For about a Deca-cycle we were trapped in think ice and went into stassis. And to here and now. Who is her?/HER! I ran over to the other figure that was about the size of a teenage girl with dark brown hair,a pink shirt with a black coat and a pair of machanic pants. WHAT WAS SHE DOING THERE... I said with rage in my voice. Megatron thought that if he had her you would come to him. Ahh Hello we don't want to intruped your chat but who is Her...? Dash yelled out. I turned back to see the figure lying still on the table. She's...my sister...Lisa. .- The next morning... .- Mom...Dad... any one... ( Lisa's P.O.V.) I slowly opened my eye...I couldn't remember what had happen before I blacked out. I looked around still adjusting to the light. I saw that I was in a large white room with a few shevels, stands and a large black door on the one side. I turned to see a someone sleeping in a chair beside me. He was wearing a grey hoody with black pants that had two blue strips down the sides. Ben? ( Back to Ben's P.O.V.) lisa! I snapped out of my sleeping and hugged her tight Ben what happened, where we and how DID YOU GET SOO BIG? Growth spurt but that doesn't matter now that your safe. But where are we and where's mom and dad? Just then a loud crash rang throught the building as Swoop yelled. Dang it why can't I ever stop knocking things over, I'm just as clumsy as Bulkhead now. I'll be right back. I said slowly walking out the door. Just get some rest. BEN! Soon Lisa was alone again in the large room. Just then she could here my voice. WHAT...WHAT...WAT IS GOING ON DOWN HERE! Sorry Ben we we're just tring to help Swoop through the door. Twilight why didn't you just use the hanger doors... and Apple Jack grease isn't going to help him get through either.. What?... ( Lisa p.o.v.) WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON DOWN THERE? Hearing the loud nosie from outside and couldn't resist myself for seeing what it it was. The sound of my brother yelling made me even more curious. I opened the door to see a small hall way. I looked and saw a bigger room the seemed to be a living room, a kitchen and what looked like lab equipment. Where the hell am I...? I walked past the labs and saw a flight of stairs that lead down to the next floor. Right as I get there I can hear more talking. Alright Swoop hopful this will help and after this Apple, you get to clean the grease off him and the doors. I had a puzzled feeling of who or what Ben was talking to. Who is Apple and Swoop? At first I thought it was just Ben talking to him self. I slowly walked down the stairs barely seeing any thing because of the cover wall with a few holes in it. I found a big enough hole to look through. WHAT THE HELL!? I looked to see a giant robot standing in the doors with 2 horses watching as a smaller robot tried to pull him out. Come on Ben this world hasn't made you lose your touch yet... (I unfold the helment) Shut it Swoop and help me push. I was in shock at that it was my brother wearing some kind of blue armor, Ben Exuse me but do you think your doing... I turned around to see two more horses one yellow with pink hair and the other white with purple hair in a rob. Ummm running! I got to my feet and ran down the stairs barely missing crates GET AWAY FROM ME... ( Just then I turned around to see Lisa running for the exit door. Only to be stopped by Rainbow Dash.) Hey whats going on here?! I stopped and ran under the over hang missing more stuff. When Ben flew right in front of me. Whoa, whoa, take it easy sis I can explain every thing. I slowly started to walk backward to another door. No,no thi-this can't be real there can't be giant robots or talking ponies or YOU WEARING ARMOR AND FLYING! Ok,ok here I'm taking off the armor now just clam down. No its just a dream or better yet a nightmare.I said running to the door. HIthereohareyouthenewhuman!?IhearedthattherewouldbeanewhumaninPonyvillebutIdidn'texpectittobeBen'ssisterLisa!OHthiscallsforaparty!. I stood there in disbeleif that of a hopping pink pony with a poofy hair called my name out clear. I lost all train of thought and fell back. Was it something I said? .- About 4 hours later... .- Lisa..? Lisa...? LISA! WHAT!? BEN! It's been a long cold day. Finding Swoop and my sister in a crystal of ice and now tring to get Lisa to stay claim for 5 minutes. Here you haven't eating for hours. I siad giving her a plate of food. Ben...where the hell are we and what happened to you... Well do you want to the short or long version of the story cause ethier way you go it's the same. Fine... Well for starters you're not on Earth and you not even in the dimension of earth. Your in the side universe called Equestria where these poines inhabit the land like humans on earth. But theres only one universe... Not really you came for D0 or Dimension 0 the out side world that no other world can enter but me. The Ben you known for the past few years is a clone that is to keep the balance at check so that way I can be here. WAIT you mean you send your time all on this world... Not really. I live in D1 the second earth where the multiverse is connected to. It has parallel worlds or completely different plains of pyshics. This is the 63th one of the group now. I came here through a portal that I couldn't get back through and have been stuck here ever scenes for the past year. And have grown a liking to this peacful place. But how did I get here? You were kidnapped through from D0 to D1 by Megatron, a transformer. Yes they are real in one world. You got saved and sent here with the Autobot Swoop by a accident with a space bridge. But you can send us back right...? Its not that simple, I barely have a working ground bridge that still doesn't full work. Untill I can find something powerful enough to power it you and Swoop are stuck here. Ummmmm Ben there maybe more then just the two of us...Swoop said through the door. .- At a the crash sit .- Shockwave we've located the other dinobots trapped in a ice cave but one area seemed to be removed. Predaking said. Execllent, they would be much of trouble now. Now locate our missing target and destory anything that stands in your way. Yes sir...
Chapter 16: Beast WarsOne year, 4 months,2 weeks and 5 days...Its been since I was brought through a portal to this world called Equestria. Life for me and the citizens of the world have grown a part to me in being with them in peace... But in the hardest of times Evil forces have pledged the lands making me be this worlds new protector. Just 4 days ago Rarity and Spike made the biggest game changer since the portal. Now with the Auto/Dinobot(s)Swoop and my dearest sister Lisa in this world tells me that the chance of returning home are higher than ever before but with a monsteress twist... The Fire House I was in the lab talking with Swoop. So...Swoop has any thing else changed during my absence on earth...? Well surprisingly nothing much had happen. The attack on Iacon was the only thing for the past years. And during that you all have been tring to find me. We tracked the cross rip with the energy surges on Griffin Rock to try to find you but after we found it was a X-portal we had to find another way. I don't blame you guys. In a way I went through three different portals from there. It's a nice place but nothing like Earth. Just then a static sound came from Swoops communicator. Swoop...Swoop to you read...Thi..s...is...Grim...lock... Wait the others came here to...? Grimlock this is Swoop I read you. SWOOP WHERE THE SCRAP ARE YOU...!? I'm in a base with Ben. BEN!? HE'S HERE... Grimlock this is Ben just tell us where you guys are. Me don't know...It has lots of tree's and red little hanger... They must be at the Apples farm. Grimlock we're heading to your locations just stay where you are. JUST GET THE SCRAP OVER HERE BEFORE LITTLE HORSE FINDS OUT... Well Swoop...You want to fly or take the bridge? I'll fly I need to stretch my wings and get some air. All right. Call me when you get them to open a bridge. And Swoop use the hanger doors this time... I open the doors as Swoop transforms into his alt form and flies off. About 5 minutes later...At the apples farm... Grimlock you guys here? Swoop about time you got here. Little orange horse thing been nagging and nagging about us in warm room. FOR THE LAST TIME I'M A PONY AND GET THE BUCK OUT OF MY BARN!... See...she's naggy. Any way we need to find a way back to the ship and stop Shockwave and Predacons. They came here too? Yes, You didn't see them? I was thrown from the ship when we crashed. Ohhh.. We need to get back to ship and stop them. First you guys need to get back here and explain somethings. Umm... was that useless Magnus? Grimlock said with a pissed voice. No, lets just say he's an old friend that you'll be happy to see. Who...? He dude need that ground bridge now. Hearing the call I open a portal. Swoop are you sure it's not trick. Come on guys He said walking through the portal. They looked at each other for a moment and one-by-one walked through the vortex. After a bright flash of light they looked to be inside a ground bridge tunnel then in a large lab. What the scrap is this place? Just then I turn around. Well you could call it my home away from home or headquarters or base. They all froze at the sound of my voice. BEN! Grimlock yelled out changing into his t-rex mode and roaring out his voice box. When he was doing so the other ponies came down the stairs holding their ears down at the loud noise. BEN WHAT WAS THAT...! Twilight was stopped in mid sentence staring at me and 5 robots. Well thats the 6th time Twilight's been shut down mid word. Wait there's more of them? Slug said with frustration. Yes this world is inhabited by them... Oh.. Well for starters glad to see some familier faces after all this time. And two how did you guys get here. We Dinobots we're aborad Shockwave's ship rescueing Lisa when a strange goo hit bridge controls. Then got sent through portal. Wait was this goo a dark purple with a a blood red in it? How did you know? We thought Dark Energon. That was one of the worst slime's you can ever get, but its impossible... It was only here but... Ben what are you saying? Dark Slime...Dark Slime infected the controls. Isn't that just black slime? No, Dark Slime is a rare form of it. The liquid of pure evil and death itself. This world has large amounts of it by a unknown source. If it was in Earth1 and brough you guys here then something got to it. What we do? We need to find the space bridge that brought you guys here. Shockwave's ship Sir the primary thrusters and navigation systems are full working but the central power core is depleted.(Darksteal telling to Shockwave.) Scrap...Not matter. We will be able to restore power by draining this worlds power. Just then Predaking comes through the door. Sir, I've scouted the near by areas and no direct power sources or any sign of the other 5 Dinobots. knowing that over muscled brain brute Grimlock will be looking for the other two Indeed but no matter. Shockwave turns to a large screen with a map of the land. We have located 5 different targets that have a strong enough power charge to power the space bridge. He then sees one that is pulsing. Interesting, this source seems to be in already use. Get Skylynx, Backbite, Stormbreaker and Bombshock ready for deployment. YES SIR! Shortly after all the predacons lined up on the flight deck. LISTEN UP WARRIORS THIS IS POSSIBLE THE MOST SIMPLE TASK FOR ANYONE TO ACCOMPLISH Predaking yelled out to everyone. We don't know whats on this backwater planet but we can't risk being detected. Darksteal,Skylynx you two will recover the source in the northern quadrant but be careful the area as a large magnetic sheild. Stormbreaker,Backbite,and Bombshock you will head to the location of the pulsing energy strain. I'll take the eastern targets. And remember if anything gets in your way DESTROY THEM. NOW TRANSFORM AND FLY! They all change into their beast forms and flies off. The Crystal Empire It was a normal day at the palace. Shining was doing his normal day works/patrols. Candace was sitting in her room reading books on how to be one with her people. Two guards that stood at the castle's gate passing back and forth to each other. They quickly turned to see two giant figure's heading to the city but low enough to hit the ground. HALT! The one guard yells at the dragon like figures. How about we CHANGE...! The guards turned to each other as the two beasts was eye level to the gate and began to transform their shapes. (Into Skylynx and Darksteal) Predaking said we can destroy anything in our way right...soo lets start with these two! The two guards ran for their lives shooting two magic beams used to warn the guards of a threat. Darksteal...Skylynx this is Shockwave. Your target is 4 clicks due north of you location and I'm hoping that the element of surprise is still intact. Ummm... it is sit don't worry. I expect so. Back inside the castle ponies were running for cover knowing that the signal tells of a major threat approaching the palace. Shining was racing back to the main doors of the castle where dozens of guards had huddled around the crystal heart along with Candace wearing a sliver coated armor. SHINING! Honey! Shining ran up to his wife's side waiting for the attackers to come. On cue two large dragons flew straight at the group stopping 15 yards way for the couple. STAND STRONG EVERYPONY! The two dragons looked to each other and laughed. You thing you like organics can stop us! HA your just as pesky as scraplits compared to us. Everyone stood in confusion and shock what the tone of their voices. NOW LETS SEE YOU FIGHT HAND TO HAND. The two jump in the air transforming back into robot form with blades on their arms. WHAT ARE YOU?! Shining yelled out. WE ARE PREDACONS! The guards took aim throwing spires and swords at the two bots just feeling the attack like it was raining. After throwing everything the bots slammed their fist adgents the ground causing the small army to fall to the ground, some running for their lives as several crystals to crash to the ground. Candace falling but caught by Shining. The two Predacons slowly approached the two. The dark blue bot holding a blade right at them and the other holding his hand to his head. Shockwave we have located and captured the first power link. Excellent now take them back to the ship and prepare for further instructions. Yes sir. They turned back to see the two ponies in a defence pose in front of the heart. WE WON'T LET YOU TAKE THE CRYSTAL HEART! You fools that crystal is a battery compared to what we're after! Just then Dark steals Eyes glow green with a grid beam shooting at the two. The crystal heart and Shining were glowing a deep yellow-orange when Candace glowed a bright green. Come here little horsey... Candace stepped back in horror as a large hand grabbed her. LET ME GO! Shockwave we have the first target...returning now. The Fire house labs I was sitting at the computer screens trying to find Shockwave's ship. Forget it Ben. Shockwave's ship has been built to be so undetectable that even Soundwave has trouble contacting it. Swoop said walking to me. True but I won't stop till I get you all back home. Just then Lisa walked up the controls stairs carrying a sandwich and water. Hey sis. I thought I would bring you something since you haven't eaten for 3 days...and whats with all the oil drums? Oh Grimlock and the others just like to have an energy contest. Smirking to Swoop. HEY SWOOP YOU COMING OR WHAT? Ya,ya I'm coming Grimlock. You never told me on how you can stand with these kind of things. Well...if you do what I've done for the past 300 years then you would know. WHAT?! Ben your 15 years old, you said you traveled to worlds for the past 4 years. Well on some worlds the time lines get very blurred. When I was on Cybertron I was a 5 foot tall organic to 30 foot transforming robots. And when I got in one of my most toughest battles I knew I had to get a new look. What? **Sigh** You know how I turned the watch and had the armor and the pack on. Ya Well that s just one of many transformations I have. Like? Well such as my full armor that I use for combat, a flight suit, this normal look and a tall 30 ft special changer. Soo your like Ben 10..? Yes and no. I don't have all alien transformations. I have more of a build and install tip of way. But the idea of it all being controlled from a watch came from Azmuth. Just then a large rumble echoed through the building as a oil drum flew across the ground. What was tha... Judging by the size of that shack I would say Grimlock had just won the first round. WHAT THE BUCK WAS THAT?! We turned to see Twilight and Spike walking across the lab. Hey Twi. That was just the Dinobots cheering on a victory...In oil drinking. Okay..Well I stopped by to give you this. Twilight turned to levitate a letter to me. Who's it from? We didn't check. I open the letter and began to read the writing. Dear Ben I've wish your presence at Cantorlot as soon as possible. I am also aware of Equestria's new visitors and wish to meet them in person. From Princess Celestia. p.s. Have you ever heard the name Shockwave? I turn back to the girls. Well what's it say? Lisa asked. The princess wants me at the capital as soon as possible. And wants me to bring you and the Dinobots. For what? Twilight did you say anything about the name Shockwave? No,why Then we have a problem. Get the girls to together and meet back here. Alright. HEY GRIMLOCK! WHAT! YOU GUYS WANT TO GO ON A TRIP UP A MOUNTAIN! ARE WE WALKING OR BRIDGING!? BRIDGING! ALRIGHT! WHEN ARE WE GOING?! YOU'LL KNOW WHEN YOU HEAR IT! (takes long drink of water) Alright Lisa... I don't know how much ground bridge expireiecn you have but lets just say after you go through it the first time your bones will feel very shaky. After ten minutes Twilight comes back down with the others as Grimlock tries to chug one more drum then smashes it on his head. Such disgusting brutes Rarity muddered. As the bots walked in. Well...BURPPPPPP.. We're ready. Alright let's go... I pull a lever down sending a charge through the cords creating a portal in the tunnel. Now guys you have to remember that these ponies don't normally see something bigger than them let alone be so...try not to step on one. I'll call when you guys can pass. Al...BURPP...right We enter the ground bridge as everyone hesitated. Oh come on... the one thing you'll feel is your bone's vibrating for about 5 minutes. They looked to each other for a moment and walked through. Canterlot Celestia and Luna were waiting in the throne room. Sorrow and worry was on Celestia's face. Anger and sadness on Luna's Don't worry Tia knowing Ben he's the only on that can help. Luna said trying to comfort her sister. Your highness Ben and the others have arrived. Aright. Celestia said with a little hope in her voice. They got outside to see the mane 6, Me and Lisa. Ben. Celestia...I said hearing the sorrow tone. oh..this is my sister Lisa. Hello... Hello Lisa, and my I be the first to be honored with the sibling of a great hero. Ummm thanks... You don't get that lot back home don't ya. I said with a chuck. Soo... what brings us here on this cool day. ( it was 4 days after a huge snowstorm) Well I do not know what this dire time is about but somepony does... Two guards walked out the door carrying another pony. One that seemed to be in the state of horror. SHINING! Twilight yelled running to her brother. What happened... Shining slowly lifted his head at the sound of Me and Twilight's voices. Twilight...thanks celestia your still safe. Shining...What happened. First lets all get inside before we freeze out here. Luna stated. After getting settled in a break room I sat across Shining holding a Pke meter in my hand. Alright now..just tell us what happened. The crystal empire was...under attack... BY SOMBRA?! No...by two metal monsters...We thought it was dragons untill they changed. Wait changed...you mean transform? You could say that...they took Candace saying that she was the first.. The first out of what? I..I don't know... we thought they were after the crystal heart but said it just as small as a...battery... One said the name... What was the name? Shockwave... Shining said before passing out. Me face froze even dropping the meter. This is why you wanted me here isn't it. Yes and that's why we need your help. Shining said they looked like metal dragons that transformed right. Ya.. Then those we're Predacons. Predacons? Twilight said with interest in her voice. Predacons are ancient cybertronians back before the transformers came. They went extinct about a hundred million years ago. But how are they here? Back when I was still in the Transformers world the Deceptcon scientist Shockwave cloned DNA or in their case CNA from old redacon bones. Making the race become alive again. But what worries me more is why they kidnapped Candace. Just then a guard ran into the room looking around and finding Celestia. PRINCESS! GUARDS REPORT SEEING 6 LARGE METAL DRAGONS COMING FROM THE WEST! Celestia and me faced each other as we all dashed outside. We got out and paused for a moment. I spawn a pair of ecto goggles to view better. Seeing six large beasts coming closer. One that had a huge wing span worried me. Predaking... I said pulling the goggles off. GRIMLOCK WE NEED BACK UP NOW. I yelled at the watch. ON THE WAY! You guys may wan to stand way...back.. Just then a large portal opened as 5 large robots jumped out yelling ready for battle. They looked to see nothing happening... Ben...where's the fight...Grimlock said with a hint of anger slowly building. It's on the way. I said pointing tot he direction of the incoming predacons. PREDACONS! Grimlocks voice turned from anger to complete rage. Scaring even Rainbow dash. Just then the six beasts land 40 yards away from us. The larger one transforming. Well...well...well..this just gets better we have all the power sources together. Predaking said slowly eyeing the group then to me. Well isn't this a little surprise...the great hero Benjamin come to the little ponies rescue. At that moment my hand tightened into a fist with rage. And now we will destroy this backwater planet... and even you can't help with. MAYBE NOT JUST ME! I yelled as the five Dinobots stood beside me with rage in everyone. PREDAKING...! GRIMLOCK?! I HAVE A LONG SCORE TO SETTLE WITH YOU! Grimlock said pulling a large sword in his hand. DINOBOTS! TRANSFORM! On cue four of the bots began to slowly change forms. Slug changed into an animal with three large horns on his head. Snarl into one but with two large panels down his back. Swoop was floating in the air flapping two large wings and screeching. Sludge changed into something like Snarl but instead of a panels he had a long neck with spikes. DINOBOTS! Grimlock yelled out raising his sword making the others roar out. ATTACK! The two sides charge at each other with all their might. Grimlock and Predaking's swords colliding in a rain of sparks with blow after blow Swoop dodging fire for Darksteal and Bombshock. The others in a beast brawl to each other. Slug transformed in mid-air slamming a huge club into Skylynx head knocking him to the ground. The battle was horrific our the others as un blasts made craters in the snow and earth. We need to evacuate the area before the fight gets ugly. We ran back to the main doors. Predaking notice us fleeing and takes a hard blow to Grimlock's leg ping him down. Slamming his sword into Grimlock's arm crippling him. GRIMLOCK! Swoop yelled out fling straight to him. Only to be hit hard by both Skylyxn and Dark Steal. SWOOP! Snarl and Sludge yelled in unison to be struck from behind. Leaving Slug to defend them. WE NEED TO GO! Lisa yelled under the battle OH NO YOU DON'T! Predaking yelled out sending a fireball at the main doors collapsing the arch way. Well...looks like I get a little prize! Everyone backed up to be stopped by the pile. I was 15 feet away from the towering beasts firey jaws. BEN GET OUT OF THERE! yelled Twilight. You want to know something Predaking... I've been here for a year and haven't had a good combat fight... Looks like the drought and YOU ARE OVER! He lunges his head right at me. I stood there and smirk a grin. Just before he could touch me I throw my right arm at him. But in a turn sends him skidding back. Everyone looked in shock at the giant shaking off pain from the blow then turned to me. My entire arm was covered with parts of my armor letting me take the impact of metal on metal. YOU KIDDNAP AND TRY TO HURT MY FRIENDS...BIG MISTAKE! I slam the watch down. A green grid engulfed my body. Two large objects spawn beside me. ( TIV-X and Ecto 62) My eyes open as a flash of light reveals me in the power suit. But then the bike starts to split. The front of TIV opens like a giant mouth and pulls me in. Soon a large blue grid surges over me and the vehicles. Parts of all three start to change places and merge as I slowly grew in size and shape. The turret of the TIV becomes a large shield with windows with the hydraulic as a spike. Soon I stopped changing and stood in front of the group. I was a towering 30 to 40 foot robot. I was a tall dark gray figure (due to the TIV's paint) with dark blue patches on my head and legs. My head still the same as the suit but larger. The wheels of the TIV lined down my legs in two pairs. ( Something like Optimus Primes but the wheels are side ways) The front flap and light bar went across me chest. The Ecto had turned into a large cannon on my arm with the engine now a giant proton accelerator On my back the two main side flaps had combined into a single blade with the spikes as a handle. Grimlock grinned knowing that when I go in transformer mode I can really bring a fight. Predaking changed to robot form pulling his blade. TITAN OR NOT I'LL STILL CRUSH YOU! I activate my face plate and visor. LETS FIND OUT! I pull the blade charging at Predaking hitting blade on blade. Both of us broke the connection. Before he could make a blow he was raise up in the air in the jaws of Grimlock's alt mode of a giant T-rex. Is it me or has this just gotten 20% cooler. Dash said as everyone turned to her. He throws him at Darksteal heading right at us. Even after all those years we still got the touch. I deactivate the mask. From the Sea of rust... ..to the Pits of Kaon! We lock hands and head but each other. Just then we both get hit by a large energy pulse. Screaming in pain at the sound as Shockwave Lands in front of us. The rest of the Predacons circle around us. Shockwave holding a large fusion cannon and Predaking holding a large sword at our chest and heads. Sonic blast...you like to play wild cards don't you Shockwave... Most predictable since our last encounter Benjamin. As you can see our presents in quite unusual in this world. Seeing you live among these...these illogical vermin... Such a new level of disgust in my view. Well...you know me Shockwave your the first con that I kicked their ass with a steal door. And brings me to the next question...Why are you attacking this world and where is Candace. The Equine is in my power cells.. With its power I can power my Space Bridge and leave this world. But it's power is not enough to power. The First... ..out of four targets. And thanks to you I have the remaining three right here.. He said pointing to Celestia, Luna and Twilight. Alicorn magic...its the most powerful force in the world... Indeed and with only two more to power I can use the last to give Megatron the power he needs and give me a new test subject. I sat there in shock and anger. I wasn't going to let him take them. In the corner of my eye I saw Grimlock trying to say something. Ben battle move number 4827 Whirl Wind of blades.. Right... ON YOUR FEET YOU PIECE OF SCRAP! Predaking ordered. The other Predacons lined up behind us holding blasters in the ready pose. Ben...NOW! In a split second the head the robot opens up sending me in the air separate of my mega suit. I was now hovering in mid-air with a sliver plate suit connected to two wings. NOW GRIMLOCK! Grimlock picks up my body and throws it at the group of cons. ATTACK! AND GET THE EQUINES! NOT ON MY WATCH! I yell out as I pull out a gun that seemed to come out of no where and fired. Grimlock and the others transformed in their beast modes and went all out. Shooting fire all over each other. I turned to see Predaking picking up Celestia. Stop swarming you bag of meat! HEY YOUR HIGHNESS SCWARM OUT OF THIS! I yelled send a fist right into Predaking's chest dropping Celestia. The force of the hit sending him flying into the castle wall. I quickly land on the ground in time to catch her in the last second... Ben...I... She was at a loss of words as I put her back upright. Just save the thanks after this is over. I quickly turn back and flew to my lifeless suit. In loud noise of gears and sparks I reconnect and drew my blaster cannon. GET DOWN! All the Dinobots ducked down in time as beams of energy shot out of the tubes at the predacons. I need to get one of those... Rainbow Dash said making ever one turn to her again. After sending about 6,000 plasma shell round o the ground I knew that they were finished. Shockwave seeing the grave site quickly ran but was caught by Swoop. Now I'm only going to say this once and once only.. Leave this world NOW! Even now you still don't think the logical out comes...that end up coming right behind you.. What... Before I could say anything else a claw grabs my shoulder and sends a long blade through my chest... BEN! NO! As you can see even now you denied the outcomes.. I stood there breathless as I slowly fell my knees Come Predacons we have what we need. What shale we do with the Dinobots sir? Send them to the holding cells with the others...After we return to Deceptacon City we'll disassemble them for parts.. Yes sir... Before I could do anything I black out an only hear the sound failure. DNA DAMAGE REPAIRING. 3 hours later... Look he's waking up... Give him some space sugar cube. I slowly opened my eyes. Dash, Pinkie, Rarity, Apple, and Fluttershy were standing around me. Ben you alright? I didn't answer. Knowing what had happen and that Shockwave got what he wanted. Where...wheres the others... They were taking to the ship. We barely got you back here to the labs in time before the repairs were finished What... I stopped as Rainbow slowly pulled my shirt off. Showing a large scar down my chess. Claw marks on my soldier's. I try to sit up but get put back down by Fluttershy. Don't move Ben...your seriously hurt... Before I could say anything a noise came from the watch. DNA REPAIRS CRITICAL. LIFE COUNT DOWN AT 96 OF 100. We all stared at the watch as a dark red 96 blinked on the screen. Ben... What does it mean... of 100? Knowing that I couldn't keep a secret I had to tell them. That is my life count down. It tells how many times I've died and repaired to life. They stood there in shock. Realizing that I have died and returned many times. But that's not all of it... When...when I us a shard It takes a life from the count. You guys have 6 of the count. You mean...some of those are the deaths of others you saved... Yes.. But now we have a more dire situation. We need to stop Shockwave be for he leaves. But Ben you're in no way shape or form to go back in a battle like that. Rarity said. Rarity...listen... I've been in this world for not even two years and I've already done things that I'm not willing to give up...now and never... The first time I fought for this world I made sure to do it till my last life...and I guaranty you that.. Working all the strength in my body to stand. I know that this isn't our worlds fight but... WE DON'T CARE... We're willing to help in any way possible to rescue our friends and save Equestria! I grin at the girls courage in the face of pure death. Alright...Lets SUIT UP! Shockwave's Ship ~ 4 hours before launch... Sir the power couplings have been installed and are ready. Exellent..Prepare for take off in 2 cycles. Yes sir. Mean while in the holding cells... Twilight,Celestia,Luna,and Candace sit helpless in a power cell. Knowing that this maybe the end... Is there anything we can do Princess?... I'm afraid there is nothing Twilight... The feeling Celestia had been beyond thought. Luna and Candace watched at the fact that they were finished. Across the halls Grimlock and the other Dinobots sat in defeat. Grimlock trying to hold him self up with a pipe then looked at the princesses. You want to know something. He said with an almost civil voice When we were in this position we thought that all hope was lost. That this maybe our last moments. But it all changed when he came. Soon all the princesses were listening to the giant. We Dinobots own lives to Ben for saving us. He opens has chest just enough to show a matrix crystal. The princesses eyes widened in the site of Ben truly give his life to others. When he came we rose up and fought back...with him leading us all to victory. After his speech Luna was the first to break the silence. Back at the castle you and Ben had a connection to each other. When he first came to Cybertron we though it was a big joke. We thought little human would be crushed on first day. But when we were done, running out of energon as Megatron and others came in. Then he came in and sent Megatron's tin can back to the bronze age. And when me and others were stuck in the Sea of Rust with insectacons all around. He sent them to the deeps of the acid pits. And on my take he knows how to really put down the hammer. All the girls hopes were returned and greater than ever. And knowing Ben...he will find a way to save us.. Outside the Ship Me,Lisa and the others hid out side Shockwave's ship. Ben remind us why we're hiding 40 feet away from the ship. Just wait...in any time Stormbreaker will open the ships main door for his normal fly about. On cue Storm walks out,transforms and flies off. We quickly hoped in the ship before the large door closed. We realized that we were in a large hall way with many halls leading to where ever else. So...whats the game PLAN!? Dash yelled out eager to start. Alright I'll head to the bridge and try t stall out the controls and hold the space bridge. Pinkie Pie,Fluttershy and Rarity will locate Twilight and the others. Rainbow Dash, Apple jack and Lisa I need you to be their cover. Oh but Im not much of a... RARITY! Alright...but if my mane is messed up it's your cost. Alright lets MOVE TEAM. GO RAIDERS! Pinkie Pie yelled out as everyone cover her mouth. We start walking to are points when Lisa stopped me for a second. Ben... she said giving me a tight hug. Be safe.. I grinned at her. I will. Space bridge control Room Connect them to the power core and be quick. The sooner we get off this disgusting world the better. Predaking ordered. Twilight and the other princesses were slowly losing hope. Hold strong everypony. Luna said trying to hold hope. The Ships Vents ( Why the hell they were in the vents is a great question) Pinkie pie are you sure it this why? Of course silly can't you here them. After walking in the vents they finally hit the grad and fell into the holding cell. What the SCRAP?! Oh hey guys. Lisa..? how did you guys get in here. And where's Ben. We came through the main door. Ben went to stop Shockwave and the predacons. How bad was he hurting..? It counted to 96. By the Allspark... He won't survive them... That's why we came to rescue you guys and the princesses...s...where are they?! Shockwave already has them in the power core room. We need to get to him NOW. But how Boss we can't get the controls. OHHHH,ICANGETTHEM! Soon Pinkie was at the control panel shooting that Proton thrower at full blast. YOU DID IT! WE'RE FREE! Now grab our weapons and lets go... Grimlock was stopped by a strange noise from the other cell. What is that...? If it was the answer a two large metal creatures walked up to the door. One looked like Swoop but a bit bigger and with two heads. The other was smaller ands stood on two legs. Someone you guys know? Never seen them before. Will this isn't the why we wanted to meet you guys in the first way. The Reaptor said. Soon both two transformed into two bots. The names Slasher..mostly Slash. This is Strafe...He doesn't talk much. He's what you can a Bot of action. Sounds like me. Grimlock said with a chuck. LETS GO. Outside the Bridge doors I was right outside the space bridge doors. Knowing the risk of being over whelmed I knew I had to take the room by force. I go to dial the watch but don't change. TRANSFORMATION DAMAGED AT 68% Damn it. It was from the first battle that I was cut through the chest by Predaking. Now I wanted to return a favor. System over ride code 10-939 CODE ACCEPTED... Soon I was covered again with my robot suit. I'm coming for you guys... I smash through the door sending arts flying everywhere. Shockwave turns to see me standing in the door holding a the Ecto62 that had turned into a large cannon pointing straight at Shockwaves head. BEN! The princesses cheered in unison. But how... You forgot Shockwave...I'm a human.. And humans always find a way. Before I could say anything something pins me to the ground by the knees. Twice in one day Benjamin I must say you really have gotten soft, Predaking snorts. He lifts me up soo that Shockwave is aimed at pint blank range to my chest Any last words... Turn to see that the tables have turned. A few...DINOBOTS ATTACK! Soon Shockwave was attacked by the bots beast forms. Some where in the ship In another cell. Stood the greatest threat Equestria had ever faced. (Tirek's p.o.v.) I sat here in a metal holding cell. How I came here only Celestia would know. Captured my pathetic metal creatures. And from my defeat by that pest Twilight Sparkles... When a time comes for me I'll gain the power to destroy Equestria and... Just then a small puddle of strange liquid forms in the cell. What this now...? He walks up and tests its power. Hmmm so...much power in such a little substance... He opens his mouth and begins to draw the Dark Slime's raw power into him. Back in the control room Give it up Shockwave your out numbered. Quite predictable but you under-estimate on my current position. We stood there in confusion for a second. And I plan on leaving...even with out the others... He pulls the lever sending a large burst of light. Twilight and the others collapse under the volume of energy. Soon a large portal opened outside in front of the ship. Predacons...Deal with our guess.. IM GOING TO SEND YOU BACK TO THE SCRAP AGE! Soon the Predacons and Dinobots were back in battle. Lisa and the ponies were trying to stop the space bridge before it kills the others. BUCK WHY WON'T THIS WORK...! Because its a one pull system. And only able to be stop by removing the power source. I ran to the chamber were the others were losing their magic's hold. STAND BACK! They quickly step back as I start punching the main door. My hands were slowly cracking under the pressure. When I finally got the door open an alarm came on. POWER CORE BREECHED. ACTIVATING NUETRON FIELD. Soon a lazer grid covered the hole. I try to reach through but an incredible a pain shoots through my hand like acid on skin. Ben...don't... LIKE HELL I AM! Using all the strength I have I walked through the lazer into the power core. I was already at a danger point of power. Ben... HOLD ON! I scoop all of them up and try to cover them as much as I can. Hold tight girls. Partially running through my head I jump through the field again with ever more pain. Soon I was lying on the floor with the 4 princesses on me. Thank you Ben... Go find a safe spot. Without hesitating they run under the controls. I start to get back up but then get smacked down by Shockwave. Such illogical heroics...Now only of you were part of Megatron's army then you would have been second in command... Other than that idiotic Starscream. And I see your down to 96...how about I make it to 100% BEN! NO! Before Shockwave could fire an unknown voice comes from the room. HEY SHOCKWAVE.. Soon a black beam of energy hits shockwave's cannon. Causing it to shatter like glass. We all turned to see a tall dark figure in the door way. He looked like a militar but the upper torso was buff and he had the head of a bull.( And a LARGE white beard.) Who the hell are you...? The world knows my name.. AND TREMBLES AT THE SOUND OF IT.. I'm am TIREK THE DESTROY OF EQUESTRIA! The tall figure was the size of Swoop but still short of me and Grimlock. But how..! I defeated you! Twilight yelled out in shock. Indeed but it seems that some came for me.. The one-eyed cyclops. AND NOW THAT I HAVE A NEW SOURCE OF POWER...IM UNSTOPPABLE!. This can't be...he controls Dark Slime... Hmmmm it seem that even you have power that matches that of Celestia... Which means I going to HAVE IT.. BEN CATCH! Grimlock yelled throwing his sword to me. When I grab it in mid-air. Before anyone could say anything. There I stood in my normal power suit . But this time the suit had slash marks, holes and burn marks but looked the same. The helmet had a huge gash mark across the fore head. And despite the damages it works. You want our powers hmmmm well EAT PLASMA I raise the sword up as it engulfs in a blue flame. It glows for a second as I send a hyper wave at the beast knocking him back. YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT VERMIN! Shockwave I know this is something not ment to be but... On it. Just get him outside. Grimlock...remember the smelting pits. How can I forget. Well time to do that again...! I said sending to Tirek to keep him down. How we only have 2 of 3. HEY PREDAKING WANT TO FIGHT. If it's a cause to save my creature then so be it. I open my chest to grab the matrix. Just then Tirek gained his strength back. HEY TIREK..THIS WHAT YOU WANT. I yelled holding the Matrix above my head. GIVE IT TO ME! Catch me it you can. I smirked as I flew off. To my surprise he was feet away from me. Flying through the halls I made it outside where Grimlock, Predaking and the others waited. Almost...theRE...! I sharp pain hit me from behind knocking me off-balance and landing into the ground. Foolish human. Do you really think you cold stop ME! I laid on the ground staring at the giant. In his hands was the Matrix with unlimited power of the universe. The ponies and Lisa watched in horror as Grimlock and the others (except Shockwave) grinned knowing what was about to happen next. ANY LAST WORDS HUMAN... Just three...GRIMLOCK, PREDAKING NOW! Before Tirek could say anything the two large bots ram him from each side. Dropping the matrix. I quickly scoop the matrix and put it back in my chest. I dial the proton pack to combat the dark slime's power as Grimlock and Predaking try to hold him in place. We soon began to lose him. ANY TIME SHOCKWAVE. WE'RE LOSING HIM! Activating Ground Bridge...NOW Shockwave opens a portal right behind me slowly pulling all four of us to it. ON MY COUNT GUYS! I pull a wrangler on him as the bots struggle to hold him without being pulled into the vortex. 3...2...1...NOW! In one big heave I pull back on the proton gun as the bots toss him to the portal. NO I WILL NOT BE DEFEATED AGAIN! Tirek dug his hands into the ground as he slowly inched closer. DAMN YOU JUST DON'T STOP TALKING... I say switching to Slime blower and start charging a large slime mine. I smirk a grin as I send a mine the size of a refrigerator at him. NOOOoooo... Close it Shockwave... Shockwave closes the portal as we all take in at what had just happen. Where did you send that portal to...? The location is in this worlds polar regions. Good. Lets hope he catches a freeze there... 5 minutes later... We were stand outside as Shockwave,Grimlock and the other bots walked out. You have no rights to be in this world. You are to return to the primary dimension and never to return. If found here again you will be destroyed. Understand... Afremitive. Predacons let us leave.. but first. Shockwave moves aside showing Darksteal and Skylynx caring six energon cubes. Do not ever say this to anyone... Predacons let us leave. They all walked in closing the door, soon a large portal opened in the air. Soon the thrusters roared to life send a strong gust of wind every where as it raced into the portal as it closed. After ten seconds of silence we looked down at the small pile of energon. I grinned knowing what to us it for. Come on guys lets get you back home... Wait a second Ben.. Twilight said. Let me do a teleport spell...you've done enough today. I could only grin as a purple light engulfs us. In a split second we were standing in the lab. I insert all the energon to the ground bridge. Ben you sure this will work? The space bridge controls may not be fully complete but with this energon to the main controls should give it the power it needs. I pull the lever as the portal opened. ENERGON CONSUBSTION ACTIVATED. On cue the three large cables glow in a dark blue light as the portal begins to change color. Alright guys time to go. Soon the bots walked out of the hanger to the bridge... Snarl,Sludge and Slash were caring drums of oil. Lisa was riding on Swoops shoulder. You don't mind if we can take some of this on the way..? I could only smirk at Grimlock. Sure... I hop down and change into my robot form again. From the pits of Kaon... I said holding my hand out. To the Sea of Rust he said grabbing it as we both did another head but. See you later... Same.. I change back to my normal form as the bots walked through leaving Lisa for a moment. You sure you don't want to come? I wouldn't think about not going. I said giving her a tight hug. But I'm needed here to stop the Tirek, the slime and anything else to protect them. I said turning to the group. After this I may not remember but I will remember what you did. I grinned as she slowly walked to the portal tunnel, giving back one last wave good-bye. After she passes through the console shouts out. ENERGON RESERVE DEPLETED Soon the portal closed. I sighed in relief knowing that my friends and family are now back home. A tear starts to form in my eye as I turned and walked back to the ponies. I don't get it. Why did you stay and not go? Twilight asked. I thought you wanted to go back to home? Luna asked Yes I did want to go back... it was what I've wanted to do since day 1. But I'm needed here. And nothing is going to change that. Soon tears formed in some of their eyes as they all ran to me. Even Celestia, Luna and Candace shed a little tear away. Catching my eye. I saw that.. I said smirking a grin at them. I want to thank you Ben for saving me, my sister, my niece and my dearest student. Anytime. But I'm afraid that this joy will not last long. Equestria's great enemy has return... Some where in the Arctic He thinks he can defeat me... She thinks that I can BE STOPPED... With my new power I can bring Equestria to its knees... Destroy the elements and Celestia forever... Watch out...I'm coming for you Ben...
Chapter 18: Tuefort Roadhouse( To under stand whos talking I made a chart for people and classes. # = Medic, * =Sniper, ! = Scout, $ = Spy, . =Heavy,& = Soldier, % =Demoman,^ = Engineer, _ = Pyro) Canterlot. Me, Celestia and Luna were in a state of confusion and thought. But Ben how can we stop it when he or... it comes? Even with your kind of power you could lose against him. I know the stacks are high but I'm the only one who can bring him down. Your world has already gone through enough as it is. But Ben you don't know what going up with. If it was able to defeat Tirek when he had more power then all of Equestria's magic then it will be more then... ALERT! ALERT UNIDENTIFED PORTAL ENERGY CODE 59 The watch beeped out. Is it Shockwave again? Celestia asked. No. He came from D57. D59 is a completely different world. Then who or what lives there? I don't remember... Red's Base. ( Engi's p.o.v.) [Because I like engineer] I was in the lab with Medic trying to figure out what the strange black substance was. Medic had injected several kinds of medicines and other liquids to see what the reactions was. (I can't make the medic do his German voice so bare with me on normal words...) Engi can you bring me substance 57392 ^ Alrighty doc. When me and Medic were busy in the lab the others were busy doing what ever. Scout and Heavy found it amazing on getting high with Medics Quick fix medgun. Soldier was outside practicing rocket jumps and testing his new base jumper. Spy was in his smoking room. Sniper was on the roof trying to shot any birds that would annoy him. Pyro was down in the bases boiler room. ( Why in the name of Irene he is I have no idea partner.) And Demo was drunk as usual. % Ohhhhhh I'm going to lick ya... Cause I'm the demopan... ALERT! We all turned from what we were doing to listen to the intercom. Our Intelroom as been BREECH! We a second to spare we all go our weapons and raced to the intel. When me and Medic get there we found the others standing in front of a large green portal. And knowing what happened last time with a portal with stood our ground as I got a sentry built. Fire House Lab It was a few minutes after detecting the portal. Me, Celestia and Luna flew back to the fire house as fast as possible. Taking the service lift down we got to the lab. To my surprise Twilight and the others where there. Rainbow Dash and Applejack had their proton packs on. Pinkie with her party cannon. ( like it would work in a fight..) Fluttershy was behind them next to a barrier holding a trap and arm pack shaking out her wits as Twilight and Rarity stood ready to use magic. Twilight? since when did you get down here? I felt a huge surge of magical energy. I seemed to come from here. But when we got here you weren't here with the groundbridge open. but it had a red and blue color. You think its the dark slime. Celestia asked. Don't know. When a tech portal is infected by a supernatural energy it takes the color of the substance. Like when it turned dark blue because of the energon. And we're dealing with a black,purple and red slime. Soo what is causing that? I don't know. We all stood there wondering what to do next. To stay and guard the portal. Or go in and see what's there. A few minutes pass as we waited for anything to happen. I was upstairs working on a quick little RC probe that I could sen through the portal. Finished I though to my self. I made my way back down to see an unexpected surprise. Big Mac, Shining, and Soarin wearing 3 of my full-sized proton packs standing guard. Each of them was wearing a proton pack based on their color too. What the...how the...what are you guys doing here? The girl asked us to come and help watch Shining stated. Nice place Ben. I bet you can really fly around in here easily Soarin commented. Uhhh...thanks... What you got there Ben? Twilight asked. It's a little RC probe I made to... What's RC? Remote control... I'll send this through the portal to see what's awaits us. I set the probe in the tunnel, take a few steps back, and slowly inch the rc car into the portal. As I did they all watched the main screen as a flash of light ment it went through. Red Intelroom. After the probe slowly went through the camera started to malfunction. As I slowly drove the probe further we could hear voices. Hey...En...what the heck...i...s...that...? IT...S...A..BOM...B...FROM TH..E...BL... WHAT...?! We watched as a small red can destroyed the camera let alone the probe. Ben...what was...that. Fluttershy asked when curled up in a chair. I just stood there think of what had just happened. Alright. Twilight, Big Mac, Shining, and Applejack will go through the portal. Celestia and Luna I need you to work the bridge controls. Alright Ben. For the rest of you I need you to stay here for when anything happens when we're gone. They all nod as we stepped to the ground bridge tunnel. I stop and dial my full power suit as the others geared up Shining and Mac had proton packs when Twi and AJ cared supplies. Alright Keep your cloak on until I say. They shack their heads as we made our way to the vortex. And in a flash of red Light we went through. Back at the Base For a moment we were all curious. I looked at what use to be a small car with a camera on it before it meet Demo's grenade. $ What do you think it was? ^ I don't know but I want to know who or what sent it. Before we could ask the portal flickers as what looks like a person walks through. Wearing an armored suit. ! What the hell is that...? ^ I don't know Scout. & Is it from the Blu's?... . Yent, to shiny Soldier. ( Ben's p.o.v.) There I stood in the portal. Looking at the 9 humans. One was fairly skiny wearing a red t-shirt and baseball cap, One had a chin belt around his body. The others were also different to the eye. There was a construction worker, A strange doctor, A soldier whose helmet was covering his eyes, One seemed like he was Australian and the other French. One had an eye patch with yellow bombs down the sides of his chest and the other was in a hazard suit. Under the face mask I was smiling so big that Pinkie Pie would try to do better. Well isn't this a surprise. I said in a joyful tone. My God guys you haven't changed. They all looked at me in confusion. $ I might as well be the first to ask but who are you. Oh I forgot you guys never saw me in my armor. I retracted my helmet and face mask. As I did so their faces turn from being confused to complete joy BEN! They all said in unison. With in a moment I get swarmed by everyone as Heavy picked me up. ^ Hot damn boy we did know it was you. I guess the suit gave it the answer... $ Indeed. .Come lets enjoy this moment with drinks. % EYE I thought to my self that I forgot that they were connected to D2 and one of the teams searching for me. Before we stat to walk away I quickly jumped down from Heavy and ran back to the portal. Is there something wrong Ben? No but I forgot the others. At the word others they turned to each other in another confused state. Alright Twi,. you can show your selves. In a flash of purple light the ponies that wasn't there seconds ago and stands. Pyro and soldier ready their weapons at the surprise. Easy guys they're my friends. They we're in shock and complete disarray. Guys I want you to meet Twilight Sparkle, Applejack,Shining Armor and Big McIntosh. or you can call him Big Mac. AJ stated. ^ Well ah...nice to meet you. Engineer said with a two toned voice. After 30 seconds of silence the sound of growling stomachs from everyone. ^ Well I reckon we go on and grab some grub. I'm down with that. Taking the fact on how fast some of them got over the fact of talking,colorful ponies that came out of a portal was still a bit surprising. But what do we do with ze portal? I'll put it on lock down on the other side. The Others are waiting to get the green light. * Well if there more you might as well send them to.. Sniper groaned. Alright guys your clear. On cue more came through. Soon standing before us and the RED's was Rainbow Dash,Soarin, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity. $ Umm are they all females? I turned at Spy giving a awkward look at his question. Spy... $ Yes? Just don't... % EYE are we just going to stand here all day lasys or are we not hungry. & I agree with Demo & The body need to be in its ultimate form for war. War? Twilight said under her breath as we all walked to the mess hall. 7 minutes later... We were going all our in the mess hall. The guys enjoyed their meals and practical jokes with me as the ponies sat on the table beside us. I don't know guys but I have a strange feeling that they aren't to be trusted. Come on Twilight. We've been in this place before when his sister and darn robots came. Ya AJ but you do have to remember that we are in another world. Just then Medic walked out holding a large tray of Burgers..! THEY EAT MEAT! In a large gasp every pony looked in horror as I was about to eat a hamburger. Ba...Be...Ben... but how...can you... I turn to see the horror in their faces. Remembering in their world they don't eat meat. Wo...wo...wow...take it easy guys this isn't what you think it is. I said holding the burger in my hand. I know what your think and it's not that... This is Fake meat.. It looks, smells and taste like real meat but it's not. The patty I'm holding now took 6 months to make by chemicals. And if you don't belive me try it. I slowly hand the burger to them. Still in utter shock they don't even move. Until AJ steps up and grabs the burger. Are...you sure it's...not REAL MEAT...? I nod as she slowly descends to take a bite. The others watch in horror. Fluttershy,Twilight and Rarity nearly hurl. As she chews the sandwich. Her eyes shoot open. But to everyone's surprise it wasn't in disgust or horror. Instead it was in a wonder. This tastes...tastes...tastes...AMAZING! In a shear second she finishes my burger. You all want to taste this. Demo brings over a small plate of the fake meat. They take a moment to realize what their about to do. Soon they slowly take a bite and get filled with wonder. Happy... Ben this is incredible! Twilight mumbled. After the short conflict we soon got back to the fun. Soldier and Demo went to a drinking contest. And of course Demo wins by a landslide. Scout tried to arm wrestle Heavy but ended up having his arm blent the wrong way. MEDIC! .HA, YOU ARE NO MATCH FOR ME. I walked over and proposed an offer. Set them up big guy. HA You think you could bet me?! Strange Natasha and Vintage Sandvich says other wise. Soon Heavies eyes shot open in excitement. .Alright then...Set them up. As I lock hands the others join in around. ^ Alrighty then in 3...2...1...GO! On cue me and heavy go out in full force. Give up...yet... .Never! Soon Heavies veins start to show. .DOCTOR! Yeah? .CHARGE ME! With waiting Medic hits hm with the Kritzkrieg. Soon his arm was glow/sparking red energy. But in the final push I smack his hand down. . NOOOooooooo!.. Wow Ben I never knew you were that strong. Twilight commented. Thanks... . Deal is deal. Treat Natasha good and enjoy sandvich. You can keep the sandvich big guy. . Thank you... On the other side of the room Medic and Engi were discussing about the strange slime they found. After coming to a conclusion they slowly walk up to me. ^ Hey a Ben...there's something we need to ask you. Sure, what is it? Well earlier yesterday at Tuefort I found a pool of strange black ooz. I stood there frozen that once again Dark Slime has played a role in the event. Show Me. Shortly after We arrive at Medic's Lab where several canisters of Dark Slime stood. Where did you find this...? It was near our respawn room in the intel room. ^ We found more at Doublecross and Gold rush. We've done experiments on it and so far nothing planned or thought of. Like... Well reaction's of other chemicals and objects. And so far nothing. ^ But when ever some one would say something Negative or bad then it bubbles even more up. ^ We had three jars,each from the 3 places. But after the test we got nearly 17 full. Knowing their interest of the slime I broke it to them. You guys are familiar with Black slime right? Of course that's why we did the testing to it. Well this isn't Black Slime... its Dark Slime. What? Just then Spy walked in. $ Then what is this...Dark Slime? Well I'm myself am trying to fully under stand it but I'll tell you what I know so far. It's a form of Black slime but is more potent. Normal Slime can't remove it unless you can keep a stream on it for a good 5 minutes. It's what I've found to be the Blood of evil. It's so toxic it can lead to death and possession. ^ Well where did the darn stuff come from? That's a three million dollar question. All that I know is that it came from the ponies world. It has a large amounts of this stuff. There's more of it then Mood and Black slime combine. After saying what needed to be said the only look on the three Red's faces was utter shock, disbelief and confusion. PREPARED FOR DEPLOYMENT! The announcer shouts out of the intercom . OH COME ON... WAS JUST ATE!... Heavy yelled from down the hall. ^ Well I guess we odd a get to work. $ indeed. I'm coming with you guys on this one. In case there is any sign of slime or if you need some extra fire power. I MUST SAY HAVING A POWERFUL HERO ON THE BATTLE FEILD WOULD CHANGE THE TIDES IN OUR FAVOR! After making our way back to the mess hall I say that Big Mac and Heavy were at it arm or...hoof wreaslting. When the others geared up for another battle. ^ Well... I don't know if you'll fit in one of Scouts shirts but... What's this now? Rarity asked walking over to us. Oh well I'm going with the guys on this and apparently I don't have clothes that... OH, well If it's clothes that the problem then I can handle it. Do you have any red fabric? ! Umm Yeah, It's in the storage closet. Rarity could only smile at the large crate of fabric. Give me five minutes. Shocking the team even more by her speed and magic. Rarity manages to make a complete uniform for me. ^ Impressive. Why thank you. After a few touches I was ready. I walked out wearing all nine class figures. Two straps of of pin grenades, A ammo belt, two pistols, a flare gun. On my back was a shotgun, a shovel and a smaller version of Sniper's rifle. ^ Hot damn boy you look like you look like you can take on an army. I could only smile at Engi's comment. I'm so adding this into my transformations... I chucked. = Mmph Mmhp Mmmmmmph. = Mmmp Mmhp Mmph Mmmph. (Translated: Oh come onnnnnnn. Not my Flare Gun.) $ Well now that the moment has passed let's get to work. We all gather up at the teleporter room. What's that? Twilight asked In a curiosity of the odd device. ^ Well it's ah my teleporter. ^ Designed and built by your truly. But at about the ground bridge? She said turning to me. Well they don't prefer having it because of how complex it is. But you can say this is a smaller down graded version. On top of the stairs was two rotating disk like objects with a red vortex emitting from it. One by one we entered the teleporters. Soon me, Medic and Engi were left. ^ Now I'm most sure that a battle field is not the place for cute littles ponies. Soo you guys will have to stay here. But you can watch us from the monitors up stairs. Soon Medic and Engi teleported away leaving me and the girls. As I stood there waiting it to charge back up I could only see a a little smile from some. Catch yeah on the flip side. Soon I was teleported away. Fire house-Equestria ( Luna's p.o.v.) There stood me and my sister. Waiting for the others to return from the portal. I do hope they are ok Celestia said in a worried voice. Soon a royal guard came running down the stairs. BEN! YOUR HIGHNESS!... Where's Ben?! Yelled the exhausted guard. He is busy with something important. I tell him. What is the problem? Something Is happening at the Crystal Empire... Tuefort I was finally in the spawn room as everyone was getting ready. Heavy walked up to me caring a large minigun. .Here. I do not know if she works still but... I pull the trigger as my Assault Cannon minigun spun to life. Purrs like a kitten (chucks at the comment.) MISSION BEGINS IN 10 SECONDS! ^ Just like old times Ben? Just like old times... 3...2...1...BEGIN! For the next few hours. Back at the base the ponies were busy trying to find something to do. Shining and Big Mac were in the storage room looking a th weapons and giant bombs on carts. Applejack was admiring Engineer's builds to the fact of a true Texan. Rarity once again was busy making more cloths but for the others. Twilight and Rainbow Dash sat in the sirvalince office watching both teams go at it. And once again Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie were in the kitchen. ( weird how much they like to cook?) In the Office Twilight watch the screens we worry plastered to her face. She saw the Reds and Blu's ding everywhere. Please be okay Ben... On cue a screen showed me in the Blu's intelroom with Scout hold at appears to be a glowing briefcase...? WE HAVE TAKING THE ENEMY INTELLIGENCE! Right before we could breath we see 3 rockets explode Me in pieces of meat everywhere. On a screen behind them was a score bore style screen were my face had darkened out. Twilight was in over drive to think what she can do. But before that Dash points out something. Twi look. In that respawn place. Inside a large vortex was spinning in the small room. On Cue I pop out of nowhere completely fine. I ran out the door like it was nothing. In a split second I kill a Demo who nearly killed Scout down the stair. ! Thanks man! 2 seconds later... VICTORY! After a nice day of work we gathered at the spawn. Demoman beginning drunk as usual past ou in his favorite corner. Even if I've been gone for years it all seems like I never left. Da. Engi walks in setting his builds down and slowly starts playing a tone on his guitar. Suddenly the ground shakes like an earthquake. What was noise? ^ I Don't 's? Lets go check. We get outside to the courtyard were a Blu scout was all the way up a pole with large gash marks on his legs. & HE'S HERE TO SPY ON US! Soldier yelled out pulling his Rocket launcher ready. WAIT! To everyone's surprise I slowly walk up to the pole and bring the Scout down. B! NO! LET ME BACK UP THERE! B! IT'S IN THE GROUND Everyone was surprise of what the Blu Scout wanted. What did he mean Under ze Ground? ^ And why is it all quiet now? We all turn to th place were once so called generator was standing. I thought to myself what's happening. Trying to remember a place where this happened before...Perfection, Nevada... EVERYONE DON'T MOVE! But without thinking Demo stumbles out of the room crashing bottles everywhere. % EYE what are we...burppp...doing.. ! DEMO SHUT THE HELL UP... % What. Out of nowhere the ground starts to push up under his feet. In one big blast of dark a gigantic creature shoots out was it eats demo in one bite. ! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!? GARBIOD! % HELP ME! AHHHhhhhh... & What the hell just happened? ^ What was the black thing? Garbiod. A what. Garbiod's ae something like a mutated worm. But these worms are 30 feet long and have lived longer then the dinisours. Using sonar to track movement. I've gone at them before with the 3 others to rid them in Nevada and Mexico. Soon Demo stumbles out of the respawn. % HA! THE NO EYED BASTARD DID REALLY GET ME! % Hey...where's MY F***EN BOTTLE! Anywhy...these thing's are not to play with. Just a watch beeping off will bring them to you. But what's more interesting is that It was more black. They are always a tan, shaded white or gray. ^ What do you reckon we do? First find and Kill one. After that find out what's making them black. Do you zink that it's ze dark slime? Well...in time Medic we'll find out. Guy's we're going to need a lot of stuff. ^ I'm on it. Demo can ou make a bomb strong enough to match 3 points of potassium? % Yeah A few hours later.. 9:37 pm We were gathered outside the Tuefort base. Engi had finished the greatest Garbiod attacker. A sentry gun hot wired to 3 minigun guns and 2 stick bomb activator. Soon Demo walked out caring a small barrel containing his most powerful bomb ever made. % I remember that this is a one time use. So only one shot.., ^ Well everything is ready. All we need is bait. ( awkward silence) We all turned to Scout. ! What?...NO! WAY! ( 20 seconds later..) ! Ummm...Ben remind me why I have these cans and bottles on me? It's simple. With your speed and sound they would be coming from miles around. ! Oh... ^ Stay sharp green bean you got company. In one large rumble a hill of moving dirt speed to Scout. ! Ah guys ANY TIME NOW! Wait until it reaches the surface before we can. Scout could only watch as a the hill shot up in a cloud of dust. There standing out of the ground was a 30 foot long worm With 3 smaller tenticals hanging out side its mouth. HIT HIM HARD! Soon a wall of Bullets, Rockets, Grenades, and Needle's ( because of medic). DEMO THE BOMB! % EYE! Demo yelled chucking the giant bag of explosive at the monster SNIPER YOUR UP! * On it mate. With one pull of a trigger sniper sends the Garbiod into fling pieces of flesh. After the large screeching noise of its death we gathered around what use to be it's head. ! Sniper..I think you took the words Head Shot to a whole new level.. * You got that right mate. I walked up to the dead creature. I've never been in arms length of one that did try to eat me. Just by looking at it had streams of dark slime covering the giant. ^ So that's what dark slime looks like? Yeah. But this is a first for me seeing something completely covered and undercontroll. I scrape off a sample of the Garbiod blood that was infected by the slime. When everyone celebrated the little victory Engi was in a state of worry. ^ Umm guys I hate to be the one who always brings bad news but... ^ You all may want to take a look. He holds up a screen showing ten littles dots and a map of the area. ! And what is that? ^ Well you see those dots...it's us. And the black blob is the dead Garbiod. A how is that bad? When he zooms out all our faces drop. On the map showed dozens of red blobs % There's so many... Look they're all heading to one place... I my voice nearly drops as the screen shows at least 40 worms heading to the RED's base. With out waiting I slam the watch to try to reach Twilight. Red Base. ( Twilight's P.o.v.) Everyone was In the mess hall. Bored as heck. Its been 6 hours since we came to the new dimension and haven't seen much. I was just about to leave and join the other but was stopped at the sound of an incoming call. Twilight you there? Yes Ben what's your problem? Twilight? anyone there. Ben I'm right here. Does any watch theses anymore? Must of lost connection during the fight Great... Well if anyone can hear me get the others and get on the roof NOW! Giant Garbiods are heading to you. GET TO THE ROOF FAST!... Connection lost... Darn what could have happened? What's a Garbiod. Knowing Ben that the tone in his voice means business. I race to the mess hall. Where Big Mac was trying to push a cart with a strange object in it. Guys we need to go to the roof NOW! Everpony turns to me in confusion. Why... Dash asks with a sarcastic tone. Ben called. And it's very urgent. Then what's the darn problem? I don't know. He said something about something call a Garbiod... On cue the ground starts to shake under our hooves. ALRIGHT LETS GO! We quickly race to a nearby stairs to get to the higher floors. I stood at the bottom of the steps watching 4 giant creatures burst through the floor. TWILIGHT GET OUT OF THERE! I run up to the others as we made our way to the top floors. I darn hope Ben is coming. I though to myself under all the screaming and crashing. But in a split second it all stops. TWILIGHT! GUYS WHERE ARE YOU!? WE'RE UP HERE BEN! Ben quickly kicks the door down and rushes over to us. I even give him a little hug for a second. God I'm happy to see guys are okay. Ben what happened down there? After I sent the message we raced back to the respawn and teleport back. But Engi had to repair it. When we got here everything was quiet... Soo those thing's aren't here any more? We checked and nothing but holes in the floors and walls. We need to go back to Equestria... it would be great being back home... Alrighty now... We than began to come back down the stairs were the others were busy cleaning up. * Giant bloody wankers... Tiny baby magets... _ Mmmhp mmmmph (Translated: Sons of Bitches) AHHHHHH! We all jump as Medic came yelling from his lab. Ben, Engi and Demo raced to him. When opening the door it was a horror show. ( Ben's p.o.v.) It was a mess. Like a level 5 anchored ambusher. Medic was kneeling on the floor were all the jars of slime were. But instead was a giant hole. Grabiods must have heard something here. As Medic analyzed the Jar he wondered to him self on how can they have found and clean every single jar. & He Ben you may want to take a look at this. We walk over to where Soldier was. In amazement we saw the entire hallway destroyed. We saw that they dug downwards. HOLY SHET! We turn back to see Heavy and the others standing in the door way of the devastated hallway. Me not cleaning this up... ^ Wait isn't this the way to our intelroom?! Where the portal is... Twilight said with a terrified voice. Come on... We slowly made our way to the intelroom. It looked like something out of Meet the Pyro. ^ DAMN IT... Engineer yelled looking at his destroyed sentry. Ben do you think?... God I hope not... Me and Big Mac will go through and check if its okay. ABSALUTLY NOT! AJ yelled. We need someone to go over and see if it's okay... I'll go first. But... I turn to see all nine of my friends waiting. I know your base is a junk yard now but time isn't on our side. I spawn in a large disk like device. with 4 blue tanks. Here take this and place it anywhere outside on the building. It should repair it completely. And take these Slime tanks to New York and give them to Ray and Egon, they'll know what to do. ^ Well it was great seeing you again Ben. I knew that if was to stay I could just drive straight to Junction City but I was need even more in Equestria. Oh and when you can, Tell Optimus Prime these numbers... 45.78.13 he'll know what to do. $ It was a pleasure fighting with you again. Da I will treat SkyBuster with great care...like Sasha! After another moment of silence I could only smile as we walked back through the portal. Iacon.E (Earth) OPTIMUS I JUST GOT A SIGNAL FROM BEN'S WATCH! Can you track the signal Ratchet? Not sure at the moment but he was detected in the central Badlands...
Chapter 1- A Normal Day on Earth[Preview- Following events of MLP/Equestria girls, Several Transformers battles, Ghostbusters 1,2, cartoon series and games, and other world events this brings them together in the ultimate muitl-universe cross over stories combined to form a story of a life's eye. Readers are taken through the eyes of 15 year old Benjamin/Ben travel through a portal to the ponies world where he refinds parts of his life from the past and soon future. Fighting new foes and old equestrian enemies all leading up to the shocking ending of one's life to start trillions more.] Told in (first person) point of view. Hello there. My name is Ben. You may think what the heck is a kid/teen going to talk about. Well this is not a made up story. For the past 10 years give or take I've been through more then than history could tell. When I was 11/12 years old a great event happened to me A horrific being called Black nearly destroyed my world. And when the Guardians of time and space came to stop him he over powered all 11. I was in the center of the battle of time and space. When the superior one fell I ran to his side. There he told me what he saw from his eyes. The others came around chanting something that I had no idea what it was. In a span of 30 seconds they all merged to a single ball of blue night light. To me it looked like the Transformers Matrix of Leadership I saw in the G1 cartoon. But it had a darker blue glow. With a gold-sliver core.With handles that had a Platinum color with a line of black. I was filled with power as I sent Black into dust particles to drift in the deep voids of space. After a year of having my powers I began to unlock the most greatest abilities ever possible. I could travel through time and space. But it all changed when I was sent to another Dimension. I knew everyone there. From their names to their personalities. After time I divided my world into two. One for the Dimensions and the other for the human realm. Soon after that I had gone to nearly 50 different worlds that seemed to link together. Naming us after my home town sports team The Raiders. But with such powers and abilities there comes a grave cost... When exploring I find conflicts that I help in the aid and fight against the evil. When I first died I thought it was my end. But through a unknown reason my powers was capable to save me by repairing my damaged body. And so I lived on and on. When exploring Dimension 57 a.k.a. the Transformers Universe I grew into a new form. I did at a time become a transformer. Meeting Optimus Prime and the others was incredible. I made friends quickly. Even teaming up with the great Grimlock and the Dinobots. Tho at it's own cost to the future. I told events of the future that each side got information from. In a time span of 270 years the cyberwar got messier. Leading to the time of launching the Ark. Now its a universal stand off on Earth and Cybertron. But it the combined power of the Autobots and Raiders we tipped the balance. Now you may ask your self (He's 15 years old and he saw nearly 300 years of history.) Well truth be told I'm nearly 2,351 years old in some worlds and dimensions. But with the combined power of technology and energy I stay as my normal and most well known 15 year old look. And because of body repairing and travel I was able to fit in any place. Slowly Earth D2's populations grew to incredible proportions. 9.4 Billion humans and 4.7 trillion Dimensionals. We formed a connection between worlds and each other as the great capital of Junction City rised to link everyone. We were at peace at the time. Until one day and a strange portal revealed other wise... . Chapter 1- A Normal Day on Earth It was about Eleven in the morning on a piece full day at Junction City. I was slowly waking up to the window to take in the nice day ahead. It was like any other day. But instead it was Thursday that seemed like Friday to Saturday. Everyone was all about through the city doing their averege routine of work. I was setting up a little chair and a cooler on the balcony of my observation tower that served as a headquarters and home. I about to take a drink when receiving a call on my watch. "Ben Do you read this is commander Hidsteal at the decagon do you read?' "Yes, Hidsteal what is it?" "Sir, our scanners have detected a energy pulse on Griffin Rock island magnitude 3J." "Any word from the rescue bots or Prime?' "No sir" "Alright I'll be on the way." "Shall I open the ground bridge sir?" "No need I'll fly." I end the call, quickly drink the can of Pepsi I just opened, kicked the cooler back an just paused for a second. I hop up on the railing and look down to the city about 50 feet below me and slowly tip forward. Free falling down to the streets. I dial a command on my watch, slammed it down and activated my flight suit. Just before hitting the ground the thrusters go in full blast as I sky rocketed through the air passing by everyone. Giving a good wave to people as I hovered by them. Heck I was even able to grab a apple when flying close to the farmers market and was able to pay the guy his dollar on the return pass. It was only about a few minutes when I reached Iacon E. The Autobots earth base. I flew passed the outposts and factory's that the bots worked and lived in. I land at a training course where I was able to say hi to my robot friend Bumblebee trying new recruits. Even Smokescreen was there helping. I continued on till I reached the Decagon communications tower. I fly through the maintenance shafts up to the ground/space bridge terminal. I get to the main terminal and meet back up with Hidsteal. He was a old friend I meet back on Cybertron. He was a Dark green and red bot that looked like Optimus, Snarl, and Ironhide. "Sir, it took you long then normal have any trouble on the way?" "No, Hidsteal just enjoying the day." "Oh okay sir. " "Now tell me about these readings we got." "We detected the spike about a hour ago. Base line reading show that it was slightly higher then the islands normal energy rank." The ranking is judged by the areas energy strength. The planets normal setting is a 2D with some areas going to 2E -3F in places like Iacon and Junction City. But anything higher would be a little alarming even for a high-tech area like Griffin Rock. "Any word still from the bots? Even Cody or Doc greene would send a message." "Still nothing sir." Well I'm already suited for a long trip might as well take a look into it. Open a ground bridge to the island, it's been awhile sence I saw them. Hidsteal opens the bridge to Griffin Rock. I walk through it and land on the road that leads to the islands labs where Doc Greene and I first meet. I looked around seeing that it was very quite then normal with the sound of animals near by and the humming from the power lines.
Chapter 2- The portal to the unknownI arrived at the labs. I knocked on the main door hoping someone would answer but no response. I activate my no-collider to fase through the door of the lab. It seemed to be very quite unlike something turned on on as I made my way to the main computer terminal i tried to found anyone and nothing. I checked the logos of when the last entry from anyone was and it registered 4 hours ago. Seeming to be weird after all the surge was undecided about a hour and a half things here have happened with people going missing when nano bots sent people to a old cave but that was before prime showed me the bots. As I walked outside i tried again to connect to the firehouse only to b hit with dead silence, not even static went through the mic. Wondering what had happened I grabbed out my hyper disc and spawned in my motorcycle, nicknamed Ecto62 because of how much this bike has seen traveling through different places, getting dosed by slime countless times and its most noticeable part of have a proton gun on the handle bars and a nuclear accelarator-looking engine that gave it its power. I jumped on and rode into town. It reminded me of Jasper, Nevada after the cons came without all of the destruction. I finally pull up to the firehouse, got off and did what anyone else would do... I rang the door bell. I was hoping to find Heatwave,Chase,Blades,Boulder and everyone else. But it was empty too. I Checked the bunker, living quarters and training course to find them. As I walked out of the firehouse my M.a.e meter went off ( M.a.e. magnetic. Atmosphere. Energy Meter) it started to spike with a reading for the center of town that went from a 2D-2E to a 3H-3I. I followed the trail t for about 20 minutes to the towns part that lead to a statue of a horse that was still clean and new looking. I put the meter up to it and the energy level was the exact on that Histeal told me about earlier. I pulled out a E.M.F detector seeing that the it broke under the sheer strength of power around it. Before i could react the energy level spike to 3M as I felt something pulling me to the mirror on the statue. A large purple energy pulse surged from it opening a full-blow portal. I tried to get as far back as i got but couldn't get from it. Even my spike shoes dug 5 inches into the stone it still didn't help. When I was near inches from the portal. But before I got pulled through I heard a familiar voice of a great fire truck. "BEN GRAB ON!" He yelled out when throwing his fire hose to me barely holding on to it. I soon saw people standing around the park watching with the bots all holding on to Heatwave and me. Right when he and the bots were about to pull me out the head of the hose broke off as the bots landed backwareds when I was sent flying to the portal. It was seemed to be like a entirety but ended up being less then 40 seconds. I woke up to be ling on a stone path in front of looked like to be a highschool. I got to my feet pick up my equipment and started to think. WHERE THE HELL AM I?! As I check to see what place this was nothing was found. Then I check the ground bridge logs to see if i was sent to a already logged dimension, and in big red letters stated -"ZONE NOT RECONIZED"- Just as I was about to go in rage the meters reading suddenly spiked again seeing that the portal was opening again but had more a pushing then a pulling to effect. Knowing what happens in these situations I ran to the left side of the building, pulled out a proton pistol, put on my goggles and hold the M.A.E. meter to get a good scan on what ever was about to come through, but it wasn't what I was expecting to see. A teenage girl and strange looking dog. My Jaw drop to see it was another human that got pulled through the portal. As I pointed the meter to her using the meters range extender to her. She had her own energy level of that nearly as strong as the portal. I quickly turned back to see that she was going to the school. I thought to my self if she has the same strength as the portal then maybe she know's how it works. After getting to a conclusion that I should find out more information on her and what she knew about the portal. I active my cloak and no-collider to hopefully get close with out being went through. It seem that getting close would be a bit harder then thought do to that fact of so many people there in the halls alone. Before I was able to find her I got a strong reading from a trophy case was a crown that gave off energy as high as 4S it nearly hit my matrix level of 5T. 9 hours later... It was about 9:40, after being here for a day I figured that I should get some sleep dispit the fact of what has happened it felt like a more like a normal day and that tomorrow would have something in store for me.
Chapter 9: The Begining of a NightmareIt was the day before Nightmare night and everyone was running around to do last minute preparing. Pinkie Pie however took decorating to a new level. Even asking me if I had or could make fake slime for the party in town hall. Soo I gave her lamp algae (That green stuff that forms on a fish tanks like glass that turns brown at to much light.) is some jars. I was at the fire house doing my own preparing. Arming the proton pack and traps. Knowing that if this worlds event is identical to earths Halloween then the paranormal activity threat goes even higher.( Why it does I don't Know) I was also getting a nother car ready, Ecto 4x4C. It was a full bodied car with the main vehicle of Ecto 3 but had a push bar, blue lights, windows in the back, and a proton cannon on the roof rack with a super slammer. A knocking as at the door. Hey Ben. Hey Twilight, whats up? Just wanted to make sure that your going to be coming to the celebration party Luna and Celestia will be here for the first time. Ya I will,I said with a concerned voice. Whats wrong? I have a feeling tha something very bad is going to happen to night. I don't know what but I just feel it. Oh and question. What? Can you take this and place it on the wall of town hall. Why?, what is this thing? Its a PKE disruptor, It will deflect PKE energy away from it by a mile distance. I'll be setting up more through out town later. Ok. Later that day at the nightmare night party. Ponies were feeding into town hall. Decorated by the towns party pony Pinkie. Standing outside were Twilight and Rarity waiting for the princesses to show. Rarity with a big grin on her face. Why you so happy Rarity?, Twilight asked. I'm happy because the princesses wanted me to make their costumes. And on cue the two royals arrived. Luna wearing a version her Nightmare moon style with a custom helmet, armor and blade attached to her back leg. Celestia was more different. She had black glitter armor and her legs with a curve cut helmet that looked like Megatron's head. Her mane was also fused with a dark red and black streak then the rest gray. Wow... As they approached the hall a whaling noise came from behind. They looked to see blue likes flashing with a white paint job The object skid to a stop nearly 4 feet away from the group. What is this? Celestia asked. On cue I stepped out of the ecto wearing a black jumpsuit with a green hose leading from my leg to behind my belt with a faded red strike down my arms. Celestia, Luna Benjamin I see that your quite dressed for this evening party. No,i'm not. What do you mean, asked a puzzled Celestia. I'm here to guard the town hall and everyone. On the nights like this paranormal activity can be really up. Paranormal? Ghosts, Im also setting up disrupters around the town to deflect any pk energy away as of a mile radius. Ok, but you will be joining us later? asked Luna. Of course I will. Later, the party was in full blast music roaring and everyone enjoying them selves. I stood near the main door with a cup of punch and a proton gun in hands. Still staying alert for, if anything would happen. Twilight walked up to me. She was a bit on the lazy side after dancing like there was no tomorrow. Hey... Benny... have you seen Pinkie Pie we're out of punch I wonder why, I thought to my self. And do you know where Rainbow dash went? No, I haven't seen them since pinkie wanted to show her the wonderbolt cake she made for Dash. Well if you see they tell Pinkie.. I know and Twilight. Yes?... You may want to stay away from the punch bowl for a bit. I said and chucked at my joke. I'll know when its too much. She said taking a drink of a cup that she had. Starting with this cup. She said falling backwards in the dance floor again. Well might as well find them. I thought taking a drink and latching the thrower back on the pack. As I walked through the town hall I saw photos of the town's past. I grinned to see the way life was back then like it was before my time. I got to the kitchen which was empty of anyone. Rainbow Dash? Pinkie Pie? are you guys here? But no answer. I looked around to see if they were hiding. As I searched around. I then I saw an old door with chipped paint on it. I pulled the latch to see what was inside. A old stair case with a low glowing light at the bottom. I slowly walked down to see a torch lite with web,dirt and dust every where. (Thank god I was wearing work boots.) As I rounded the corner I could smell the residue of slime but didn't see any. My blood went curdled when hearing a loud blood turning scream coming from up ahead. I ran as fast as I can grabbing and arming the proton pack. I reached a Large chamber with bones against the wall and blood staining the floor. I looked to see Rainbow Dash clamped to a table. I looked in horror that her cutie mark was cut out leaving a patch of flesh. Her wings completely removed sitting on another table. RAINBOW DASH! I ran to her. She was bleeding a large amount of blood but yet barely alive. DASH, DASH CAN YOU HEAR ME!? I yelled out. At the corner of my eye I saw another figure staring at at me with a foot long knife in it's mouth. Pinkie Pie?! But as it walk forward it's looks faded away showing a more demon look. Dark pits with a red dot were her eyes, Her pink mane stained with blood and her legs all cut up. WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER! I took care of one of the barers of the elements of harmony. With them gone this worlds greatest powers will be no more and you will be destroyed to become the worlds new ruler's personal throne... But way wait...when I CAN KILL YOU NOW! I jumped out of the way before she could get me. Her knife leaving a long cut across my right side cheak. OVER PRIMUS'S LIFE LESS BODY. I said in anger as I propped Dash onto my shoulders hold her parts in one hand and the proton gun in the other. I turned to run but to see the main hall was being flooded with slime. DARK SLIME!? I turned to see another hall and ran as fast as I could shooting the demon pinkie,dodging slime when caring a 105 lb proton pack and a 130 lb Rainbow Dash. Stay with me Dash. I ran only to be meet by a large blocked up door way. Demon Pie (her nickname) was slowly walking up with slime flowing behind her. I reached into my pocket to pull out a grenade like object throwing it front of her. I crouched down and fire a boson dart at my feet. Outside the other were looking around the town hall searching for us. No sign of the princess. Keep looking we need to find Rainbow Dash and Ben. Just then a the ground began to rumble as the doors blow open with me,dash and cloud of slime erupted out. I fell right on the ground siding about 4 feet with dash about 2 feet away. BEN!, Twilight yelled She looked at my face. A huge cut mark across it with blood dripping down. She turned to see dash ling on the ground. RAINBOW DASH! What happened? asked Celestia. A dark slime demon got to her. It looked like pinkie to get her. I found barely alive. WE HAVE TO GET HER TO THE HOSPITAL. That won't work. Theres only one way of helping her. I said slamming the watch in a flash of light blue light picking her up. Can you get us to the fire house. Heck ya. She said as her horn glowed teleporting all of us in front of the fire house. I kicked opened the garage doors like they weren't there. I ran down the stairs to my labs as everyone followed. I placed her on the table connecting cords to her to keep her stable. I grabbed her wings holding them in place as a joint laser reattached them. Everyone watch with dreadful faces of sorrow and suffering as I tried to keep Dash from ding. I stepped back to turn to them. I opened my chest plat and pulled out the matrix. A gold glow was coming from the blue core. I grabbed one handle and turned it completely around, several shards of the core poked out. I chipped on off and put the matrix back. I turned back to see the group with a shocked expressions on there faces as I held the shard above Rainbow Dash's chest and yelled. BY THE POWER OF LIGHT AND ALL HOLY I CALL APONE THE BRINGER OF LIFE TO SAVE THIS SOUL. The shard grew from being 2 inches to now a foot long. I waved it over my head and slammed it at her with all my might. Everyone was in horror of me stabling Dash with the crystal. Rarity and Fluttershy both fainted. Applejack turned and threw up in a garbage can near by. But before they could say anything a blue light glow from dash. As the crystal sank into her chest as the health colors appear again and red then slowly to green. The watch shouted out DNA DAMAGE REPAIRED. As dash gasped for air and moaned everyone ran over to her to hug and comfort her. Thanks Ben... Ben. I stood there motionless. I was in my own mind walking there a blue hall way to a large chamber. It had screens of me and my past every where and the walls and then blank one for the rest of the way. I stopped at the last on before they went blank showing me and the others in the lab. But then the one beside came on It showed a water fall of Dark slime, creatures coming up out of it and the black figure appearing. Before anything else happened I came to on the floor soaking wet. Ahhhhh what happened? That's what we want to know. I got up to walk over to dash sleeping on the table still beat up. I'll keep here for the time being untill she has regained her full strength back. And for the rest of I strongly urge you all to watch your selves. I said in a concerned and yet strict voice. Celestia I know that you are concerned for everyone safety but we can't risk any other accident. I'll want to set up PKE disruptors around Canterlot if you'll let me. Of course.
Chapter 17: Tirek's Return and FallCanterlot 2 days after Tirek's escape... (Celestia's p.o.v.) I was In blissful dream. I was relaxing on top of my favorite hill overlooking the horizon as I slowly set the sun. Luna walked up to me with a smile as she sat beside me. It feels wonderful here does it Tia.. Indeed sister. The way this land should be for ever... Ya... We both looked up to the sky hearing a familiar noise. We saw Ben and Rainbow Dash trying to teach Twilight how to fly fast. When he saw us he gave a wave as we did back. Such a sweet boy, Luna said in her softest voice I only wish that we can make him the happiest he can be. Ya... Suddenly a hard guest of wind hits from behind us. Blinding me for a moment. When I could see a again all I saw was destruction and fire everywhere.. LUNA WHERE ARE YOU?! I turned to see the castle engulfed with black flames... Oh...no... Within a second another guest of wind hit me. But this time I was in the castle. I looked around the destroy walls and found Luna. LUNA ARE YOU ALRIGHT?! I try to grab her but I just fased through. I turned to see me lying on the ground next to her. We were both looking at a large black cloud with slime falling from it. The great and powerful royal sisters...such a weak pair. SAYS THE GUY WHO'S TALKING... We snapped our heads back to see Ben standing in the door way. His face was bruised and bleeding. He had sparks and slime all over his power suit. The chest plat was so badly damage that you could see the glow of his matrix. Holding a giant 6 hooves (foot) long sword in one hand. And a strange shield in the other. BUT HOW...I DESTROYED YOU. Ever hear the term its the last count down...well my count down isn't down just yet. The dark cloud soon changes its form into...a large black monster ... Soon they both charge at each other in another flash of light. After the flash I saw Ben being supported by Twilight and the others. He had a huge gash mark on his suit with blood slipping by his hand. Me and Luna were on our hooves with armor and swords of our own. TWILIGHT GET BEN OUT OF HERE. My dream self yelled. LIKE HELL YOU ARE... Come on Ben we got to GO! A large red flash caught my eye as I turned back to see me and Luna together on the ground. I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU TWO FOR TOO LONG!... A large crystal spair forms. Aim right at me and Luna. We both cover our eyes. In a another flash of light I was blinded but this time it was a blue glow. Followed by a blood curdling scream. Luna, me, my dream me and the others looked. BEN!...Luna cried out in horror. He was standing in front of us with the spire sticking out his back with blood and a strange blue liquid covering it... He dropped to one knee. Trying to say something. Never...ever...let me catch you here again... Out of no where his sword gets thrown into the monster's head in a burst of black light. NOOOOoooo! I wake up screaming my lungs out. It was just a dream... Just a dream.. or was it... The Fire house (Ben's p.o.v.) I was sitting in the basement of the lab repairing and upgrading my power suit. knowing that my Transformer mode is now unusable till Ratchet can get a hold of it. Since being here the suit has gone through a lot. Back in Dimension 1 I could just walk through a regenerator and it would be as new. Now it has hole's from battle, Burn marks, scratches and slime residue stains. Through the building the mane 6 and Spike were going at there things. Twilight was in the foyer reading book after book. AppleJack, despite her knowledge of technology was working on the TIV. ( Why she was? I have no idea.) Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy were in the kitchen making something. I couldn't tell what but judging the smell from the vent it smelled good. Spike and Rainbow Dash somehow managed to get addicted to a bunch of old video games I had back from years ago. OH YA NEW HIGH SCORE! Dash's voice echoed through the vents. And Rarity well...she was in the garage making jump suits for everyone. (Don't ask why) SYSTEM REPAIRS ACTIVIATED ESTIMATED TIME 5 HOURS. I really need to get that software and mechanics updated. I got up and headed back up to the main floor. Right when opening the door Pinkie's voice came on the intercom. HEY EVERY PONY FOOD IS READY. Lets hope it isn't sweets again... I muttered passing AJ and Rarity. Well you know Pinkie she likes a darn surprise anytime. AJ pointed out. Oh Ben my darling I have to ask you. Where can I get a trace of a badge? Rairty ask on the way up the stairs. Just take one from my old suits. It hasn't changed much but the material color. We made our way to the kitchen that served as a dinning room, meeting room, and testing room. On the table were 8 plates each with a color matching to every one. Oh come on Dash you only won because the controller cord broke. Ya just keep saying that little guy. Enjoy playing your hooves to the bone guys. Twilight smirked still holding a book. Don't worry Spike I got wireless ones. Oh ok. Everypony sit down now. We sat down as Pinkie wheeled a large pot over to the table. I call this Pinkie's Five Alarm Soup. Why's that Pinkie? Twi ask curiously. Well knowing the name I'll say she put in five different kinds of peppers or something just as hot. You guessed right Ben. She said pouring everyone soup. Eat up now. If your still hungry I made enough for thirds... At first we all hesitated when tried it. Twilight,Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash screamed out in the first bit of the hot soup. Rarity jumped out and ran to the sink's falsit to cool down her mouth. I don't see what you all are complaining about this is the best soup I ever had. I'm with ya on that pardner. Same here. Spike yelled out. All the girls watch as me and Spike were in was like a eating battle. 8 bowls of hot soup later... Give up yet? Yes... Spike said groaning under his stuffed stomach. Wow...I never saw anyone eat so much of something so hot. Dash said with a bit of amazement. Would you believe I ate a grenade once and thought it was a potato. Umm... Suddenly there was a knocking at the door. Wonder who that can be at this time of night. I said pointing at the wall clock that read 10:25 I got down to the main floor and opened the door. Even to my surprise there stood Celestia and Luna. Celestia,Luna..? This a bit of a surprise. I do know that the timing is a bit strange but we have something we need to tell you. Celestia said with a weak voice Oh well come on in. Me and the others just finished eating. I think there might be some left. We walked back up to the main room. HEY GUYS! We got guests Princess? What are you doing here? Well...it's hard to explain...Celestia started to say but lost thought Lets just say at this point things are about to go into a different direction Luna state. Well what happened? Before Celestia could answer she start to get dizzy and collapsed. Princess! On the other side of the room every PKE and M.a.e meter went off. I ran over to see what it was reading. Pke levels are insane. M.a.e. is hitting a solid 3X What does that mean? I don't kn... Right when I turned to them the readings spike even higher. I slowly walked over to Celestia and put the meters to head. HOLY...boooooommmmm. The meters literaly exploded under the strain of the power. Ummm I'm not a scientist and all I'm sure that's not suppose to darn happen. Applejack state. I stared at the meter for a moment. Remembering that I never had readings like this since the Manehatten accident. Get her down to the labs I said nothing else as we got into the service elevator down to the lab. Lay her down here. They propped Celestia up onto a table that was connected to a large ring of some kind. Alright I need yo guys to stand behind this barrier. Why? It's not going to hurt her is it...? I change into my X suit telling them its important. ( The X suit is the inner armor of the power suit a.k.a. Secondary Armor) Alright Celestia... I said as the disk started to spin. Just close your eyes and try not to move much. Will this indeed hurt...? Not at all but you my feel a headache latter Alright.. I pull a lever that slowly sends the table into the rotator. Activating scanner. On cue a surge of blue electricity engulfed Celestia's head. The others where shock and horrified at the site. In one flash of light the machine slowly died down. Alright you guys can come out now. I yelled out helping Celestia up. What did that thing do? It scans her memory's and brain waves. The PKE and Mae readings where deadly high for some one even of her power. Celestia and Luna faced each other knowing what I was talking about. And with Tirek now controlling Dark Slime any PKE energy detected must be found and removed. Ben I... She said but was cut off because of the headache. Easy. You need to sleep. And as for the rest of you I strongly urge you to take a proton pack and Pke meter. At any sign of problems get the pack on and be ready. Alright They said in unison. I'll stay here to watch over Tia. Alright lets get her upstairs. After the others left Me and Luna Steadily placed Celestia on my bed. You sure we can put her in here Ben? Belive me it's the safest part of the building other than the lab. Alright, I'll keep a watch on for the time. Ok, I'll be down in lab. If you need me just call on the intercom. 4 hours later (Back to Celestia's p.o.v.) I was in another dream. but this time it was just a white space and a foggy road. Out of no where Luna came. Luna how did yo... You forget sis I get view and visit others dreams. Oh, where do you think we are? I don't know Tia...wait who's that? They turn to see a figure walking up to them out of the fog. Good evening... We both looked at the figure. We were almost sure who it was. Ben?.. Not quite. I'm Sky Star. Or what normal people call me Devin. Brother of Ben. We both stood there in shock. We were face to face with Ben's younger brother. What are we...before you ask any questions I must tell you. What you have experienced early was not a dream nor a nightmare, but history. Me and Luna had hit a wall of confusion. What do you mean? The events you saw was not from your imagination. It was time rifts of the future times to come. You mean that what I saw was to happen. We us,Equestria and Ben...? Indeed. I must go now. Wait what happens after... Before I could finish he had disappeared into the fog as we drifted back to reality. I woke up as Luna shook the dream off. The clock read 6:20 am. I got up to the window to raise the sun. I could only think to my self. If this Black monster is the source of this...Dark Slime then what is Tirek's part in this...? After raising the sun we walked out to the kitchen to see Ben working on some device and drinking coffee. Aren't you a bit young to be drinking that? I said with a chuck. I said catching Ben's attention. Are you a bit old for asking that. He smirked. I made eggs and waffles if you both are hungry. We sat down to enjoy the nice meal with out being watched by guards. Soo did you find anything? Indeed I did. He said pulling long pieces of paper. You see this. He said point to a small blue line. This is the average brain activity for dreams and memory This green line shows the activity for the three main kinds of ponies. Earth,Unicorn and Pegasus. Now this purple line is the average alicorn thoughts. And this is yours. We both looked at the Red line that was 5 times higher than the normal alicorn. And that's not everything. I found silencer traces of PKE energy. That means it came from a source of Dark Slime. What can we do? We need to go back to the place where it first happened. What?... Before I could realize it we're were back in Canterlot Ben remind us why where here? I ask with a bit of wonder. What ever happened the night before started here. Soo that means there should be a trace of the energy. Me and Luna were still confused as he scanned my entire room. Wear that strange pair of goggles. Ben what are you... There I got a tail. And it leads to the direction of the crash site. Where Tirek returned. (Yes the chapter's name is in the story) Come on we need to find the source and stop it. In no time Me,Luna and Ben were flying to the old crash site. When we got there small patches of grass and frost covered the site. Ben what is the hope of finding anything here? I know that Shockwave did ground bridge him away. But knowing the one-eyed con he always has another wild card ready. What do you mean? Luna asked. If he came back in this area with a strain of slime then the chance of him returning here is 7 out of 10. Here put these on. It's would help if we had more eyes searching. He said giving us two more sets of goggles. Umm...Ben... You can hold them with your magic or just extend the strap. We all began to look around the area for...for...well I didn't really know. I guess something out of the ordinary. After a good five to ten minutes. I walked up to the mountain side and saw a large purple ora. Hey Ben! I found something. I yelled out as Luna and Ben came over. I don't see anything Tia... Put your goggles on. Oh...sorry. We all stared at the rock face. To a normal eye it was just rock but with the goggles it showed a large glowing purple ora. Well what now? I asked. Take a step back and hose it down. Me and Luna stood aside as Ben sent a stream of green slime at the rock. In time it slowly faded showing a fairly large tunnel. This way girls... We began to walk into the large cave. I caught something wrong with Ben. Ben is something wrong...? I don't know. It just feels...werid in here. Like... familiar weird. It's like going bac...WAIT what's that sound? We got stopped in our tracks as a rushing river stood apone us. Oh...My...God...soo much dark slime. I stood there in shock at the river. I turned to see the cave went two ways. One end had caved in but had enough space for the slime to flow through. The other side went into a dark black tunnel where the slime came from. Come on. I think we're getting close. But first... We were a little puzzled as Ben turned to guys with his watch glowing red. In a bright light he spawned two small objects into his hands. They looked like his proton pack but was much small with two circular guns. Before we go any further it's best that you guys have some form of fire power. He handed me and Luna the small packs and we carefully put them on. Say hello to the compact arm pack mark 8 Or in this case hooves pack. A 9 ring-x pack now equiped with slime blower. Fairly simple to work now. Right leg is Proton, Left is slime. You can us your magic to press this button to vent the pack when it over heats. After a short speech on how to us the packs he spawned in his as we started back down the cave using the spot lights. Ben...what happenes when we find out what's at the end of the tunnel? Luna asked. We find out who or what is and shoot everything we got. Oh... We kept on walking for a good ten minutes as we followed the river. Soon we came to what appeared to be candle light and talking. My master I have news to report... And what would that be Tirek... The princesses have seen the events that we have planned... And have more and more curious... We stood at the door way to a large chamber. There stood Tirek to a normal size of what he looked like before he had the alicorn magic in him. In front of him was a large dark blackish-red crystal floating above the river. Once I've full gained the power to destroy the Elements of Harmony I'll gladly rip that so-called Matrix of Universal Power out of that... human boy's lifeless body. Then I'll be able to rule Equestria with an iron hove... We kept on watching the conversation. I saw that Ben's hand was tighting into a fist around the gun's handle. Sir may I have the ability to destroy the alicorns for good. Suddenly a large beam of red energy shot from the crystal as he cried in pain. YOU WILL NOT DARE TOUCH THEM. IF the elements do fall. Then with all of their combined powers they can over power me and end everything... Now take care of our little guesses... The crystal slowly sank into the slime as Tirek faced right at us. Well...isn't it Princess Celestia ,Luna and the little human hero Ben... Tirek... Not the greatest sight for sore eyes. I said smirking o how he got beaten. **moans** Ever since our last encounter. Clever trick putting all your magic to your little student. Twilight Sparkle had it within her. Even without our magic she and the others defeated YOU. Indeed but it seems that she isn't here now is she. And the elements are miles away from your reach. And now with my new powers even your magic can't STOP ME! THE MASTER WILL RISE AGAIN! We stood there in shock as his veins glowed a red-black as the river starts to bubble. YOU FORGOT SOMETHING. And what might that be boy... WITH EVERY POWER IN THE UNIVERSE THERES A EQAUL AND A OPPOSITE. Heat them UP! Knowing what it ment we activate the packs in a steady noise of the cores cycling. HOSE HIM DOWN... We took aim and fired at the giant. Streams of Blue,green and pink slime clashed with his black beam. BEN IM RUNNING OUT! I yelled out. As a response I guess he stops firing slime and sends a beam of energy at his beam. HOW CAN SUCH A WEAK CREATURE OVER POWER ME... Maybe because you don't know what power is.. After a minute of firing he gave up as slime covered his body. We were just feet away when the river bubbled again as the crystal came out. Soo this is the little human that is the holder of the Matrix of Power... A pity that such power in the hands of the child... And even that you have failed me again... NO MASTER!...I... BE GONE! In a bright flash all the energy was sucked out of Tirek. You worthless servant... The crystal seemed to face us as it slowly sank back into the river. We will meet again... And the worlds will fall... We stood there for a moment. Not knowing what it meant We shook it off and turned back to Tirek. We was back to his drained state. What do we do with him now? There's always room in the containment unit. Wait I... Before Tirek could say what he was about to say Ben throws a trap near him. As Tirek slowly got pulled in the there was a though in the back of my mind. I told Shockwave about him. And yet it seemed that he was meant to come back... I shock off the thought as Ben picked up the trap and walked back. This would be a good spec for Egon to study. Now let's get the hell out of here. We made our way back to the cave entrance. Have the guards to be ready for anything in the coming days. Alright Tia. A few hours later... Back at Canterlot After lowering the sun the facts came to truth. A great evil has fallen on to Equestria. One more powerful than Tirek. Me and Luna we're thinking of what to do. If the elements of harmony and us can't stop it then what will fall apone our land... I don't know Tia but... This is what we know.. We know that the threat is using the dark slime as a source of power. We know that Tirek wasn't the real threat. But he wanted us to believe he was. Right..? Which raises the next set of questions. Who is it and where is the slime coming from. But you said that he gains power from the slime right? Can't we just remove it...? Luna...I've done that before and the results never change. And with the amount of dark slime here I find it hard to try that. But what about the source? Hmmmm...we could try but we would have to find it first. Even if we do stop it there is still what ever slime that made it through. What about that sewer tunnel? I asked. You said you, Shining Armor and Night Light found a large chamber with a water fall of it. Yes but that doesn't mean it's the source. Unless... Unless what? We didn't know at first what he was thinking but we knew he had something. I have a plan but you may not know it at first... Dimension 59 Tuefort Badlands... 197X ( Engineer's [Engi] p.o.v) It was a day like any other. Me and the team was battling it out with the Blu's Intel case. PUT DISPENCER HERE! It was a long day. Both of us had large sentry nests in the intel rooms. But thanks to Scout and Spy we were able to win the match before going into over time. ( And thank damn god we didn't) We were back at the respawn relaxing when medic came in holding a jar of some purplish black goo. *What ya got there doc? Sniper asked. I have not ze slightest clue...but this would be excellent for some tests!
