A few hours later Phelix woke up, and immediately sat up after remembering what happened to him. He felt dizzy from getting up too fast and laid back down. He heard a giggle, "Hehe silly one; you should take it easy, they gave you drugs so you would stay asleep during the trip here."

"Who are you? Where am I?" He said still frightened but keeping himself composed.

The lady smiled. “I’m Nurse RedHeart, and you’re in the hospital."

"How long has it been!" He asked shocked.

"OH not too long an hour or two." She giggled

Phelix tried to roll out of the bed but found restraints around his legs and short chains around his hands.

"Sorry, sweetie. They said I had to keep those on you."

He also noticed he was still in his pajamas. Well at least I’m in something comfortable, he thought to himself. Phelix stared at the nurse
who had a pink tail and white fur. He had never seen an Anthro this close up, and never this calm. The only Anthros he’d ever seen have been
while he was in combat with them.

A loud ringing noise broke his train of thought, as a phone outside the room he was in started to ring.

"Excuse me, I must get that," she said as she left the room.

Phelix listened to what she said when she answered the phone...

"Yes, He’s awake. he’s doing fine." she giggled a little. “Yes of course! I’ll have him ready for her shortly. No you don't need to send escorts.... ugh your no fun." she hangs up the phone.

Wondering what she was talking about and knowing he would soon find out he lay back. He had a flashback of one of his training sessions, of
something Father had told him, “Remember, if you are to ever be captured, stay calm; the worst thing you can do is panic." He remembered his dad saying.

Nurse Redheart came back in with a pair of socks. “We can’t have you walking around barefoot. We had to take your socks off cause they were
dirty and wet."

She grabbed one foot and he quickly yanked it away.

"Now, now; I’m being very polite, and that was very rude."

He sighed knowing it would be better to have socks than to argue. Even though this Anthro didn’t have wings or a horn, he knew those ones had a lot of strength, whether she was a nurse or not. The average non-flying or magical anthro could easily punch a hole through a wall.

She took his foot again and put a sock on it before doing the same with the other foot.

Phelix felt so many emotions at once. He felt angry for his home being invaded ad destroyed, scared from being captured and not knowing what would happen to him, and embarrassed for having this thing putting socks on him.

Phelix heard a knock at the door as two tough looking stallion anthros walked in. "Were here to escort the prisoner."

The nurse gasped, "Hey he is not a prisoner he is our guest and a patient."

Phelix looked at the two men. One having blue fur and a black tail, and the other having green fur and hair that was a lighter shade then his fur.

The Guards came over and unlocked Phelix's restraints. Too weak because of whatever drugs they injected him with; he decided it was probably best to not fight back.

He had another flashback from one of his sessions with his father, “Remember, Phelix: no matter what, never stop fighting. Giving in is the worst thing you can do." He felt ashamed and helpless that he couldn't do anything to resist. Sorry, Grandpa, not this time. He thought to himself.

They got him to his feet easily, but he was still a little too weak to stand on his own.

"Can you get him a wheel chair to sit him in?" The green pony asked Redheart, who swiftly walked out of the room, emerging a few seconds later with a wheelchair.

No! You can’t let them see you weak; you have to walk, he thought to himself having too much pride still to let himself be succumbed to a wheelchair.

He took an unbalanced step toward the door.

"Easy, kid,” the other guard said. “You take it slow and sit in the wheelchair."

Phelix sighed, knowing by the tone in the guards’ voice that he didn't have a choice. He sat down in the wheelchair, feeling sorry for himself and feeling like a failure. The guards put restraints on his legs and wrists. The blue anthro then pushed him out of the room.

He wondered where he was going and what would happen when he got there. He also remembered hearing the accent that the green one spoke with. It was back in his village; he had heard one of the villagers speak differently when he was younger. After asking his father about it, he was informed that man was using an accent and that sometimes people from different places spoke differently. Father had told him the man was from a place called New Jersey, which was a state far away from the village.

Phelix was wheeled up to a set of double doors and could tell he was in a hospital. They stopped at a row of shiny metal doors. The guard pushed a button and Phelix heard a ding sound. Phelix realized where he had seen the doors before. He remembers his father telling him there called elevators, they were an easier alternative to stairs, getting you one floor to another.
He remembered the day.

"So they get you from one floor to another?" He asked his dad.
"Yes my son. People use them manly in skyscrapers." He replied with a smile.
Phelix remembers he was really young back then. They were going through a ghost town. Vegetation growing inside the building and through the cracks in the concrete.
They heard footsteps outside. Flash quickly pushed Phelix to the wall before dragging him along to the stair case quickly but quietly.
"Stay here Phelix... understand? Don't move an inch. Unless they spot you don't move."
Phelix nods and watched as his dad pulled out a pistol and walk out of the broken and open doors. He remembers waiting there for what seemed like an eternity when. BANG.

Phelix came back to reality as the doors open up to a big open lobby. Phelix could see the outside through the windows and a few anthros walking around and sitting in the lobby. They open the doors and appeared outside.
Phelix tried again to get up the restraints were firm. He saw a parking lot with a few cars some of which were brand spanking new looking.

Phelix was wheeled into the lot and soon was lifted onto a waiting van. He had never been in a car this modern before, mostly just mobile carts held together by bolts and duct tape. Dad always said driving a car outside of any city would be too suspicious and that The queen had a fleet of flying planes and satellites in space looking for heat signatures and activity in remote regions. The van soon rolled out of the parking lot and onto the busy street.

Phelix watched the different buildings going by and couldn't believe how everything looked, this was what cities were supposed to look like. Not like the torn up bombed and cracked places full of rubble and skeletons overrun with grass and vines everywhere but clean and shiny with not a crack in sight. non-the-less he was still in enemy territory and he didn't know what would happen to him.

The van soon rolled up to a shiny golden gate with walls for as long as the eye could see (which was about 2 city blocks) and nicely trimmed bushes around the walls there were armed guards everywhere. The driver gave the guard an id card and after a scan of the whole car in a magical glow, then the gates opened and the van drove in. Phelix was taken away. He almost gasped at how different the landscape changed on the other-side of those gates. The land was covered in a beautiful field of grass with nice looking pathways going through them and little ponds and gardens all around the place.

Straight ahead, on the other side of a bridge overlooking a very large pond and garden, stood a large two story brick building, with a blue dome and golden tower on-top. On each corner of the building was a golden horse head. Right beyond the pond stood a white marble statue of a rearing horse. Beyond the statue was the grand staircase leading to the entrance of the building.

The driver pulled around the driveway around the pond and statue right up to the stairs. He stopped the van and the guards helped Phelix down still in the chair and rolled him up to the staircase. They lifted Phelix and the chair up and carried him to the top. The front double doors were made of a stained wood and had gold trim designs on it. Two Buff stallion unicorn guards stood on either side of the doors each armed with black and golden designed P90 machine guns. The two guards walked over and opened the doors at which point two different unarmed guards came and took over escorting Phelix. The previous two walked back to the van as Phelix was wheeled in. The Immediate interior was a huge open area with a few staircases leading to the second floor. The walls had black flags with a red and orange sun emblem on them. Phelix was wheeled along the hall which had a red carpet going throughout the place. Phelix was taken into an elevator up to the top floor. He was wheeled down the hallway to another set of double doors with guards on either side again. They open the doors and Phelix is wheeled inside. They were in the room where the dome is. The room being a two story room, the bottom half was a library. In the middle of the room sat a golden horse statue with water coming out of the mouth of the horse and into a little fountain. Bey on the fountain were two staircases opposite one-another. The railing leading up the stair cases were golden. Phelix was lifted again two the top and set down. They pushed him up to a desk. Behind the desk was an anthro looking out of the window, gazing upon the large city, facing opposite of Phelix. The mare had a long Red and orange mane with an orange coat. She was wearing a red robe. He could see a Pair of wings and a horn on this woman.

He knew exactly who this mare was...

"You can leave now guards. I can handle him alone." The mare spoke.
The guards both no and turn around a leave.

"Sunset Shimmer." Phelix mumbled audibly under his breath.

"That's Queen Shimmer to you, peasant," she said with a menacing tone as she turned around to face Phelix.

"I'm not scared of you." he replied in a hiss. He knew he was lying through his teeth though.

She laughed. I've been waiting for this meeting for a very long time, Phoenix. You see you have been causing quite the havoc on many of my bases and killed countless soldiers of mine. You and that father of yours."

"How do you know who my father is? And why am I here?" Phelix asked.

"How do I know your father? You should know that already. I went to school with him. For someone who is supposed to be smart you really are quite stupid. I mean come on, I at least thought capturing you would be a lot harder. Build a base within the 10-mile radius of where we narrowed your location to. Waited for it to draw you out. Then just track you right to you hiding spot. Simple really. But I expected more. "

Phelix interrupted. " Are you going to sit here and insult me all day or are you going to kill me already?"

She laughs. " Kill you?" She laughs even more. "Why would I kill you?"

"BECAUSE I KILLED ALL YOUR MEN. I DESTROYED ALL OF THOSE BASES. WHY WOULDN'T YOU KILL ME? I'M YOUR WORST FUCKING NIGHTMARE!" Phelix yelled out.

She laughs more" Worst nightmare.... Are you kidding me." She continues to laugh. " You’re a dream come true. I've been waiting for this day. Because today, the tide of this war will change. Because you will join me and there will be no-one left to stop me," she said with a smile.

"JOIN YOU.... I WOULD NEVER." He yelled angry.

"Well see about that. Today you'll be made like everyone else. An anthro."

A look of shock came over Phelix. "N-No."

She smiles devilishly. "What’s-a-matter? Its not like you haven't been one before."

"What? What are you talking about?" Phelix asked confused.

"Wait you don't know? "

"Know what?" Phelix asked feeling his heart in his chest.

"Phoenix what is your mother’s name?"

"How dare you. You killed my mother and you dare ask me her name?" Phelix said extremely pissed off.

She laughs, “No Phoenix I didn't kill your mother.... You've been lied to your entire life. Your mother is alive and well. Her name Phoenix is Twilight Sparkle."

"What! How dare you... I knew you were and evil person but I didn't think it would go that far."

"Phoenix, or should say Phelix, why would I lie about that. Tell me does your dad ever studded or try to change the subject when you ask about her?"

Phelix sat there in disbelief. " how can that be?" he asked.

"Well let me tell you a story... you see, long ago, when little miss Twilight came to our school, she fell in love with a young boy named Flash
Sentry. Eventually that love led to them to sleep with each other. It was not too long after that that I took over. I put Twilight in a sleep like stasis and you slowly developed.

After a year Flash and a squad of men broke in and attempted to assassinate me. They failed, but not before Flash awoke Twilight from her
stasis machine and escaped with her. You had fully developed and she was ready to give birth to you. We eventually tracked her through the magic she was giving off in this world. During that time, she had given birth to you."

"That could work out... But you’re wrong... If she is my mother I wouldn't be white and my hair sure as hell wouldn't be red and black!" he retorted. “And I wouldn't be a human, I would be a fuckin Anthro." Phelix exclaimed.

"You see, that's the thing I was thinking about. I think that she cast a spell to change the way you look, and I think she made you human." She giggled for a few seconded before bursting out laughing.

"What's so funny?"

"You've been attacking your own kind since the beginning."

"I'm not one of you," he said in an angry tone.

"Yes, you are...” she smirked, “On the inside."

"No, I'm not!"

"Not yet," she said with an evil smirk.

"I'LL NEVER BE ONE OF YOU!" he screamed, his eyes flaring.

Her smile faded. "You don't have a choice," she said sternly.

Phelix yelled out and struggled with all his might to get free but couldn't get out of the restraints.

The two guards returned to get Phelix and take him Away, but Sunset Shimmer waved them off. Her horn lit and Phelix glowed in her blue magic. He felt his body go numb and he couldn't move.

"W-What did you do to me?" Phelix asked unable to control any of his limbs.

Sunset glimmer giggled, “I cast a spell making your body limp... its ok, ill remove it after your transformation.

Phelix began to freak out. No, No, NO, this can’t be happening. I don't want to be a freak.... Is she right? Was my mother really Twilight Sparkle. Why would dad lie to me? No, no please I can’t become an anthro this can’t be happening this has to be a dream.

"Miss Rosemary please prepare my car." Sunset said to her servant girl. The mare was short and had a pink coat and a light blue mane.

The mare meeps" uh yes My queen." she said shyly and hurried off only to pause and head back." Uh…Uh, Queen Shimmer.... which car?"

Shimmer picked the chair up in her magic. "Any car I don't car just get one and bring it out front."

The mare nods and quickly headed out to the garage.

" Now Phelix... You should be grateful that I’m allowing you to live and join me."

"Fuck you."
She slammed him down on the floor. "That is not how you speak to royalty!"

Phelix yelped in pain as his head hit the red carpeted floor.

She picked him up and undid the restraints and took him out the chair.

She walked through her palace, the entirety of which was beautiful, and like nothing Phelix had seen before. Every square inch of the place screamed royal, rich, and power. Shimmer walked down the red carpeted halls. Do you like my palace? It used to be an old school, in fact its where my reign of power began."

Phelix remembered the stories Father had told him. This must be the school he was talking about; although it didn’t look anything like some of the schools Phelix and his father had explored before.

Phelix remained silent.

"It's okay you will have to talk to me eventually." Shimmer said. As they went down a few flight of stairs and out the front doors.
The guards salute shimmer as she passes through the front doors.
Phelix was stunned by the car he saw out front. Much nicer than anything he had seen before. It was red and black with red wheels. As Queen shimmer approached the vehicle Phelix could make out McLaren on the side.
The doors up in the air like the wings on a plane.
Shimmer set Phelix in the passenger seat. He tried so hard to move but couldn't his body wouldn't listen to him.
Shimmer got in the driver side. Phelix watched Rosemary close the door and Shimmer drove off.
"Please don't do this to me" Phelix begged not carding about his pride anymore. He felt like he was being sent to die.
"Heh that's right beg for me!" Shimmer said with a smile.
Phelix tried hard not to let emotions overcome him.
Shimmer drove out onto the busy street engine roaring in the back.
Phelix watched as anthems on the street waved and saluted their queen
Shimmer revved the engine in response.
Phelix watched as they drove past skyscrapers and eventually they pulled into a complex at the edge of town. It looked like a hospital crossed with a prison. She pulled in and up to the doors. She got out and opened the passenger side door and got me out of the car. She takes me through the doors and past the front desk.
"Open the doors I’m doing this guy myself." Shimmer said grinning.
A buzzing sound is heard as the Steel barred gates open and shimmer walks in.
The place was bare except for different colored lines on the concrete floor showing were to go to get to different places. She followed the red line and up of few flights of stairs before entering a white room all sort of machines in it.
She giggles, "Here we are... it’s time to change... and I hope you will realize That this is for the better." she giggles setting me down as she preps the machine.

"Now, when everything first started, i would change people into my loyal creations myself. But that got tiring and boring, and none of my subjects Had enough magical energy to do it for me... So I invented these machines; with help of course, and I take it from Equestria.

"Why don't the ponies come kick your ass?"

" Because i made it impossible to come through the portal." She said simply.

"Then how do you get your magic?" Phelix asked trying to get as much information as possible.

"Because the broken portal still seeps magic." She replied continuing to get the machine ready.

"And how do you get it here?" Phelix asked continuing to interrogate her.

"It doesn't matter how i get it here. Now the only question you should be asking is how can you get out of this transformation."

"How can I?" Phelix asked hopefully

"That's simple tell me where your village escaped to and I’ll let you leave," she said with a grin.

"I’ll never tell you.... kill me for all I care." He said as she picked him up and took him to the machine.

He whimpers slightly as she takes him. His heart began to race, and he struggled with all his might trying to make his body move but it wasn’t working.

NO this can’t be happening i need to wake up, someone please pinch me or something.

She placed his limp body inside of the machine. his hands and feet in their places. She pushes a button and they close around his neck, ankles, and wrists.
"Please Sunset don't do this... I... I’ll help you...just don't do this." he said anything to try and get here to change her mind but nothing would work.
"No you'll help me anyway." she said as she kissed his forehead.
"Give it a while.... And I’m sure you will be like a son to me." She smiles and put a full face mask on him making sure it and the hose attached to it were secure. She then shut the bulk head door and turned the latches that secured it with her magic.
She smirks as she looks at Phelix face through the tiny window in the door. She walks over to the computer on the wall typing in a few things before pulling a lever and watched the machine pure to life.
Phelix shed a single tear as he felt the gas flow into his mask. He thought about his Father and squad, and what they would think about him if he ever managed to meet them again.
He then quietly and calmly fell unconscious.

When he awoke he will have changed forever.
