Previous Chapter

The small Changeling walked down the hall. The halls looked destroyed. The walls and ground were cracked with small bumps and holes. The ceiling, well, most of the time there wasn't one. As he walked he was readying the memory wipe spell it was difficult to do, since it takes so much out of him, but anything for the hive. He made a left walking into a dark room with a stone ceiling. He looked forward, seeing a round pod in the middle of the room, surrounding it were hundreds upon hundreds of cables plugged into each other or tangled around one another, but all leading towards the one pod in the middle he never liked being in this room, the walls always looked like they were going to come to life and eat him. He struggled to keep his focus on the spell as he slowly made his way to the pod, the creepy, gigantic, horrid looking pod. He looked at it, all was silent. Then it happened. Bang! Bang! Chanck! Clank! Loud bangs erupted from the pod nearly scaring him to death. He stumbled back and whispered under his breathe. "Oh... No..." A flash of light was seen as the top of the pod tore off and flew up smashing into the ceiling causing debris to fly every where. There was groaning from inside, then suddenly a hand came over the side of the the pod as the creature pulled himself up, the light shined in his face revealing his identity... Michael. He pulled himself over the side, he lost his grip and fell to the floor."Wow, son of a-oof!" He hugged the ground. Rolling over onto his back he pulled himself up and using the pod for support, only for it to fall back on him. "God-dammit! That... Huh it didn't." Pushing the machine off of himself. He got up and held himself in place and began to look around only, he had no idea where he was or how he got here. All he saw was what seemed to be a small pony like creature, curled up in the corner. He walked over to the creature and looked at it inspecting it to see what it is. Coming to a conclusion the that he had no idea what it was, he continued forward as he held onto the door and pushed it... nothing. He pulled the door... nothing, he looked at the door to see if it was locked, he decided to just open it the easy way. He kicked down the door and walked out, not knowing which way to go he went left, he wanted to know what he was doing here and he was going to find out. One way, or another. The hallway sloped , holding onto the railing as he went down. There was no light except for that of his eyes which seemed to glow a dark purple. He continued onward to a fate unknown, walking forward until... A door, just a single door, at the end of what seemed to be the longest of hallways, looking at the door he noticed how it didn't slant like the hallway did, he broke the door open and got inside the room, the most strangest of rooms. Looking around he couldn't believe his eyes. Vines, ropes and wires of all sorts were spun around he entire room, mixing with each other and colliding in the epicenter, the top of the room. At the top was a gigantic ball of webbing, and on that ball was a door. He began looking for a way up. With no other options he took to the wall and began climbing up, using the various ropes and vines for grip. Climbing he noted to avoid the rigid stone spikes protruding from the walls. Before he made it to the top he looked to the middle of the room, to see more of those weird pony things flying around at the top. He chose to sneak pass instead, not wanting to draw attention he began to climb up from behind them and work his way around.His abilities were unmatched by those of this world. As he wormed his way passed all those creatures, Mike made it to the top and forced the locked door into submission. Inside this room was what seemed to be a technologically advanced science lab; at least that's what the sign on the inside of the door said. Weird. Continuing into the oddly named room, Mike saw mountains of science equipment, medical, MRI's, stethoscopes, test tubes, and many many unnamed lab equipment that is to remain unknown, and unsaid. He looked around admiring all of the strange tools, and deadly shaped items. Making his way trough the room he came across one item that drawled his eye. A computer. He began looking through files for anything at all, he must know, what is he doing here? What is going on? Furthermore how does he get out of here? At least one of them answered, is a start if nothing. Finally his searching efforts prevailed. There was the file on the screen. Project Exynos. He slowly opened preparig for what may lie inside. He stumbled back, "What is this!" He carefully examined the file, reading every word, every foot note as he went on to read the file of these scientist and their voyage to making a beast of some kind. Their story was the most shocking thing. They were ordered by "The Queen" to capture a human on planet earth, than bring back to this world so they can use it for their experiments. He couldn't believe his eyes. There on the screen was a picture of him on some kind of table and his name above the picture. He stumbled back in horror tears filling his eyes as a he clicked a video on the screen and watched as the pony things worked on him and implanted things inside him. Taking his heart out they implanted and green and sliver orb where his heart was then then they closed him up, and began to work on his brain. Cutting into his brain, they added other kinds of nerve-like-wires into his brain. He couldn't watch anymore and began to scroll down and he read a statement made by one of the scientist."This is our last hope, our last chance to take Equestria and help our race survive. If this fails, then all hope is lost." He didn't know how to respond. So he kept reading and found out what thy did to him. He's Project Exynos, a last hope science experiment to save their dying race, the Changelings. He was a killing machine, "Able to wield magic and absorb as much as needed, he could absorb any form of magic due to the orb we implanted in his chest. The orb would convert the magic into carbon for it to be stored in his blood cells or bone marrow. With that his body could also convert carbon into magic using the orb." This was to much for him to take he stumbled back hitting a shelf, knocking a pile or science equipment onto the floor. He looked over to the door, afraid to see if someone, or somepony thing would come in. Mike heard hoof steps running towards the door, he looked around for anywhere to hide, all he saw was a window. Hoping he didn't have to do this, he didn't see any other option. He ran as fast as he could towards the window and jumped. The sound of glass shattering filled the room as he jumped out the window falling into an abyss of dead grass and hopefully his non-eminant death.
