Dimensional Hero: The Equestrian World

.

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...
