//-------------------------------------------------------// ATLAS Corporation -by GatoYBeans- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Introduction //-------------------------------------------------------// Introduction Queen Chrsalis has won! Not only did she successfully infiltrate and brainwash the Captain of the Royal Guard but she did it with little to no resistance and her plan for taking over Equestria was in her favor! As the black hearted Queen stood in front of her defeated enemies smiling in victory the ponies cringed everytime they looked up from where they were tied up to prevent from escaping. Princess Celestia also looked with mortified realization that even her own powers could not stop her from taking over the throne and it was only a matter of time before the fear spread across the rest of her once proud Kingdom. She had failed. As the Queen finally stopped to catch her breath with her mixed emotions coming to rest, she turned back to the Elements with one particular purple mare screaming at her nemisis. "This isn't Over Chrysalis! YOU won't get away with this!" Twilight yelled as she fidgeted amongst her friends but the Changelings around them squeezed the ropes around Twilights throat robbing her of oxygen before she gasped for precious air as she continued to pant. "We will stop you Chrysalis! With the power of the elements I will summon the powers of friends..." A blow to her face was met with the butt of a spear as blood began to pour from the lips of her snout. "Now Twilght, I know your eager to be the first to die and help rid of the old Kingdom!" Silence was met as sweat began to drop from Twilights brows. "But before we can start, I will give you once last chance to honor me not as a Queen but as your Demigod and beg for my forgivness." Chryalis snickered as a cruel smile raced across her lips. She walked down from the steps of her 'new' thone chair as she suddenly transformed from her hideously shaped body to a Celestial white Alicorn as she began to mock her new 'toy!' "Oh Twilight! My faithful student, I know you can stop the darkness and save our land, but i know that your a waste of life and don't deserve my friendship. I hope you cry because I hate you!" The evil Celestia began reinforced the Manical laugh with a sinister distaste towards her 'pupil.' Twilight on the other hand had streams of tears come down her cheeks as she could had trouble protesting out before the Changeling further squeezed the ropes around her throat. "Oh Twilght!" Chrysalis changed from Celestia to Cadence. "How unfortunate that my sister in law has brought shame in the name of Equestria! She dosn't even deserve my frienship anymore! Because frienship is no more and your so called frienship is like acid to me. I just want you dead." Twilght could not hold back the torrents of tears as her gagged friends tryed to reach out to her but were stopped as the other Changelings caught off thier attempts. "It be a shame if Celestia wasn't here to see what I am going to do with her star student!" Chrysalis then called in her squad of hive guards dragging a bloodied and tortured Princess Celestia with her wings twisted in abnormal directions. "But, I will admit how easy it is for the great to have fallen and by cutting off all hopes of retaliation we must strike from the source." Then as if on cue a agonizng scream was heard from the Sun Princess as the biggest of the Changelings began to bite chew and eat skins and layers of the stem of the Royal wings as Celestia displayed tremondous faces of pain. As the Changelings began to help themselves to this new endevour, some began to laugh out loud as endless tears and wailing was heard from the beseached Goddess then a snap was heard! There laying on the ground was the remains of her wings, torn to shreds and purposely burned in the minds of the other ponies. There was no hope this time. As Queen Chrysalis began to order her minions to brings out the portable Guillotine and prepare the new traitors deathes. She began to cruelessly talk with a gentle voice at the depressed Purple mare. "You lost, I win!" With these lasr words, Chryalis finally cheered to her new victory with the other Changelings following her example. They had once more won, and nothing could stop them. A loud bang blinded the Ponies as crashes were heard from outside the windows. Before the Changelings could react to these new turn of events, gunfire streamed across the room as bright red flashes painted the changelings bodies as they turned to find each other lying on the ground marinating in thier pool of green blood. As the smoke filled the room dark shapes began to emerge as the special ATLAS Unit emerged from behind the blankets of smoke as thier red visors visibly were seen and in thier hands they held Bal27's and HBRS. One of three bent on her knee as she leveled within the crosshair of her sights as she squeezed off rounds as it penetrated into the skins of the recovering Changeling before going down the same way it was brought up. Her teammate next to her then moved ahead as the rest of the team exo evaded into the crowd eradicating the rest of standing bugs that managed to quickly turn to only recieve a punch breaking into its skull of peppered with sharp bullets that tore into its body. The remaining Changelings wanted to find a way out and headed over to the main hall doors but a crash broke throught the solid Oakwoods doors as a behemoth Titan tore across the room. The Goliath with its Arm Vulcan Cannon fired into the fray as it picked out the targets from the hostiles and hostages and what remained of the bad guys was a pile of green intestines and carnage as open ribcages exposed with the green matter slid and tore across the room. In a matter of minutes the smoke finally was gone and what was left of the Changelings was pure massacure. Left to right every single thing once moving was turned to brain matter and blood just further amounted into the already growing bodies that were either half intact of entirely annihalited from attack waves of the PMC unit or armored Goliath. The ATLAS troops lowered thier awarness as they then turned and trained thier guns on thier new targets, the Princess and the Elements. Being scared is an understatement, but an entirely new alien species that blew out from nowhere was something entirely from a terrible dream and the Ponies can only look as thier hearts began to race as they looked into the barrels of the guns as they prayed it can't end like this. "Lower your weapons and stand down." The PMC on command quickly lowered thier guns as they stood in a rigid formation as the head honcho began to walk amongst thier results and he was no man to dissapoint. As the Ponies heard loud footsteps come closer towards them they were met with a tall standing adult male, over 50 in ages and what they saw could only bring thier fears to life. The man was non other than the CEO of the biggest PMC corporation in the world, and with a hard expression but in a honest voice answered to the group. "Hello! Forgive me for the sudden conclusion you had to see but I thought it was safe if I made the call. My name is Johnathon Irons..........." //-------------------------------------------------------// Beginings //-------------------------------------------------------// Beginings As Mr. Irons looked down at the shaking group of technicolor ponies he turned towards his Lieutenant and with a nod the ATLAS soliders picked up individually a pony as they cut thier bindings and with the bigger pony, the Princess, they helped her up to her hooves as she quiely thanked the armored Soliders of Iron's private task force. As the mane 6 finally got a breather Cadence was tightly huging against her fiance Shining Armor who also had a Twilight crying in his open forearms but a 'ahem' was heard from the waiting man of the hour. "As I had stated, I sent in my finest men to take back the thone room and with Chyrsalis in our custody she won't be hurting anyone for a long time." Between two armored Goliaths Queen Chrysalis was pinned to the ground as she screamed in agony from the receptive sensors being destroyed from losing communication of her deceased children. But as she attempted to buck out in retaliation a quick butt of an HBR whipped across her face as it knocked her out cold. "On the behalf of my Company and my men, this was just a prime example of how we handle growing situations and If I may contend dear Princess Celestia, I am honored that ATLAS Corporation has gifted a fine service to the Royal Kingdom." Celestia finally realizing Iron's words after processing the quick turn of events quickly fell down in front of Irons body but before the Soliders could react towards these actions a long and silent cry was met into the arms of the Concerned CEO. "Thank You!" Celestia gently answered between sobs as Johnathon patted her back against his own body as he held her in his arms. After several quite moments she finally let go as Irons finally gave word to bring in the clean up crew and help escort the injured and the brutally raped Princess as Irons from the moment he saw her eyes, he saw great sadness and forgotten longing. With introductions out of the way, Irons sat up from his seat as he looked out the windows of the Royal Palace seeing outside the dozens of stealth War Birds circling the skies of Canterlot City on a 'cleansing' task to smoke out the rest of the Queens followers. As he turned back to the matter at hands, he was met with the large eyes of the multitude of mares as they expressed thier gratefulness for rescuing them from the clutches of near death. "Mr. Irons?" Quietly aksed a light Pastel Pony. "Yes Ms. Fluttershy?" Asked Irons as Fluttershys face turned a crimson blush. "Sorry, If I may ask but who are your friends... because I would really like to thank them... If I can, please sorry.... for saving my friends and Princes...." She hid behind her hair as Johnathon chuckled at her naiveness. "Why of course Ms. Fluttershy, I will send your regards to my men, and It is always a pleasure to thank the hardworking men and women of ATLAS as they are the ones to be thanked for the sacrifices made to ensure man or Pony be safe from harm." Smiled Irons before looking away from the yellow Pony and back to buisness. Irons then turned back to the collapsible Projection board as several slides of his Presentation were awaiting his command, the Ponies all sat back astounded from the movie like production. Clearing his throat and after looking through the note cards in his hands Johnathon Irons began. "I am here today on the behalf of ATLAS Corporation and what you have seen was the acts of men and women who fough for your safety, and in the belief of self preservation and for the securtiy of your Majesty. I believe in the principle of change, and change we must in moving forwards. Because with ATLAS we are here not as a hired gun, but as the enforcer of good all in the name of Princess and country." Then as the room became dark, the projections behind him moved as a recreation of the tragedy 14 years ago flashed across the eyes of the Ponies. Youtube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cg4KW7Pfpmo) At the end of the presentation, the Ponies were left speechless with stong admiration and courage washing over them including Twilight who's tears escaped the glowing eyes of happiness and renewed hopes. However Celestia was only quite. "As you saw, ATLAS Corporation Is here to give back our strength in times of crisis, and as we are speaking both medicinal and reassurance has been cleared with the citizens o this city...so towards the matters of Queen Chrysalis's execution" "Let her go" Answered quietly Celestia as she interupted Irons thought. "I am afraid I can not do that your grace." Added Irons as Celestia began to sit up from where she had saw the propaganda. "I appreciate what you have did for myself and My Little Ponys, but our policies rule out that Queen Chrysalis to be exiled from our country and to push her far away from hurting others including herself and let me remind you the acts of excessive violence perpatrated against her followers....." "But that's why she took your wings, and her minions having thier way with you?" He had hit a nerve as her hair began to glow a dark hue of her colors. Luna then stood up from where she was seated. "We really thank you for your time, but i am afraid we must decline your offer you see we don't need some outsid...." "Celestia also used those same policies on yout Princess Luna, or shall I say Nightmare Moon incident?" "Now see here Mr. Irons, enough has been said and we are more than capable of protecting our country ourselves. But what your millitary did was unjust action, I must ask you to leave including your army before we must bring in our own..." A gunshot was heard as Johnathon Irons held is ATLAS 45 left a small trail of vapor from the point of contact in Shining Armors head who was lying on the ground yelling in disgruntled pain. But before anypony could react ATLAS Soliders each pointed their guns to the backs of the mane 6 as Johnathon walked over to a squirming Captain. "Before you attempt I will state myself clear, I am not here just for you to deny my help, but it seems as though he will bleed out from the internal bleeding unless he is treated. Do you know how to remove sharpnel from a torn ligement?" He kicked his foot into the side as Cadence reached out towards Shining before being knocked back into her seat. "Now as for myself, this is a hostile takeover and I must admit your are incomptent to letting your defenses down but with my Guranteed leadership yout administration is under my safety and the first order is for the execution of the war Criminal Chrysalis. Then as on cue the screen projection flashed with a Queen shivering from the brutal blows to he body as she was waiting against the flagpole of the Countrys flag before the firing sqaud with Ba27s unleashed a barriage of bullets tearing into her skin. "What have you done? THIS IS NOT HOW WE HANDLE CRIMINALS!" Yelled out Celestia but before she could lash out to Irons she was kicked down as several Soliders fired slugs into the bottom halfs of her hooves temporarily stunning her movement. "Tell me Celestia? What are you going to do? Lecture me? Punish me? Kill me?" A growing smile was seen as a gargle of words left Irons mouth as his body was displaying a specific acts of movements as for a brief second a demonic flash revealed what was truly under his skin. He then bent down as Shining Armor tryed to knock out Irons advances but a needle poked into his left leg as his legs went limp. Everypony gasped at the now breathing Shining. "He will live but Celestia you haven't answered my question? Or is your so called frienship part of the solution?" As Johnoathon Irons left Shining Armors side he went towards the windows of the Castle as he scanned down the streets of Canterlot as his men were pushing out the citizens of Canterlot into the streets as they were marched into the center of the city with guns firing out warning shots. The pegasus that were also in the sky were being deliberatily shot down, and several fires raced across the buildings as his plans were going according to schedule for the big night. "Princess Celstia you have been instilling friendship into hearts the hearts of Equstrians for a millenia and it hasn't worked ONE TIME! These denizens don't even have the most basic building blocks to support the magic of friendship." As he looked at Twilight with a grim face. "Little things like we ought to be tolerant of those who live in solitude and don't need the magic of friendship to live thier life. We ought to be tolerant of those biologicallt incapable of having frienship at all!" The screen still showing the remains of the dead Queen in the castle courtyard. "That weaponizing the magic of frienship throught the Elements of Harmony is counter-intuituve to say the least. But you think that by marching up to everypony based on some fundalmentalist, religious principles, grab the Elements of Harmony, cripple the baddies and show them THE MAGIC OF FRIENDSHIP!" Johnathon looked away from the windows as he reached and touched under the chin of the Princess as he continued into her ears. "Hah! Give me a break!" He kicked her down onto her face as he went to the table and slammed his hands against the oakwood of the table. "Ponies dont want perpetual peace. They want adventure, Magnitudes of CHAOS! We need need opposition that won't alter thier appearance to a grisly spectacle when the gloves come off!" He caught his breathe as he turned his back to the Ponies admiring a picture of a infamous villain the mane 6 had stopped before the attack on the wedding several weeks before. "You give them that, and they'll follow. And that's wher I come in..." Answered Discord as he turned to the Ponies who were left in shock upon seeing the person they had come to dread. Discord was back. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chaos Theory //-------------------------------------------------------// Chaos Theory As the mane 6 and Princess Celestia jaws dropped there he stood, the infamous Discord in the living as he stood alongside Johnathon Irons with his hands crossing over as Discord with a little dance hooted at his 'friends'. "Oh my what delightful faces Do I see! Either of happiness or hatred for me! WHAT! Don't you like me anymore?" Snickered the God of Destruction and chaos as he continued to dance around a quiet Irons. "Discord! How did you escape your imprisonment?" Shouted a distraught Celestia as Discord stopped for a moment. "The question is, where was I sent to? Did you really think Tartarus wanted me? Oh, Heavens no woman! I am too pretty to be gone yet or are you just jealous of how much fun it is to be me!" "But we used the elements to encase you in stone Discord! Did we miss something!" Twilight yelled as the butt of a rifle smacked the back of her head as she hit the tabletop as the same rifle was pushed against her head. "Now Now! I know that all of you ponies have missed me and have lots of question of how I am here. But I promised Mr. Irons into safe passage to the colony world as he elected me Governer of his new state and its good to be in charge again. Man it was only 30 years ago that I had helped Johnathon rise to power and with a powerful army no doubt! All thanks to me!" As Discord rambled on the different sheningans Mr. Irons and him on how they impeached thier following PMC commanders and how he was 'elected' to the Black Powder PMC before being renamed ATLAS, and how Irons influenced the world with his reputation and by aquiring some particular scientific minds later researched and financed his ultimate inventions. The Exoskeleton Suit. This would be one of the first inventions and ATLAS would later become the leader in arms development as they sold to North Korea, The United States and on the black market the different factions of Terrorist and the KVA. "So I'm probably boring all of you ladies, but the point being is in a short span of time in the human realm I helped the office worker Irons to become the CEO of the largest PMC group in the world and in return he would promise me help in taking back what is rightfully mine with the added benefits of slaves and large deposits of resources. And to achieve it, I took on his role by playing his doppelganger and thanks to the KVA attack across all the Uranium power plants  we became so big that we contracted every country to give their infrastructures to us before we use it against them." As Discord walked to the now sitting Celestia as guns were pushed against to her sides, a disgusting tongue slid across her neck as Discord giggled at her reaction before he flicked against her snout. "Too bad my Princess that this has been used already!" He grabbed her from the neck before throwing her against the ground. "No matter. I will soon find you some use even if those little buggers have taken every hole and ruined you before I got a chance. Now If I must I need to discuss some very important matter with out visitors oh! Don't forget.. Survive!" After those last words a sack went over everyponies heads as some tried to kick away before being subdued and hauled away from thier seats  before getting to thier destination. A waiting War Bird. The ATLAS Soliders continued to monitor the airwaves as they communicated to each other on the transport of the Mane 6 and Princesses, the few soliders who happened to be around them talk outloud amongst each other. "I bet the purple pony has a nice body before we are done with her, and the yellow one looks real nice!" Laughed the soliders before they walked into the other direction of the hallway but they fell down as bullets tore through their asaphgus. Quick hushes and steps were taken as the stealth cloaked Sentinel troops pushed the bodies into the rooms before advancing further down the hallway. They had recieved word of an important shipment being made after they had infiltrated and tagged alongside the moving soliders when they had entered the wormhole that led them into this world. As they continued thier jouney with silenced  KF5's and hiding against the dark background to get the maximum effectiveness of their exos, with the added exo thrusts every movement was complete silence and as they reached the main doors of the castle in front of them stood a lone War Bird as they were loading the ponies into the vehicle. From a distance, a female gunman was positioned from the farthest building inside the city as she looked down the barrel of her LYNX rifle with an added Thermal scope as she scanned across the platform. "Two on the left, three on the right and Pilot is mine." Radioed the sniper, as everone took position. She began to aim down the barrel of her gun as she took her first breathes before unloading her clip into the windows of the warbird. The initial impact hit the pilot in the left cheek and the Co-pilot through the neck. Before the ATLAS soliders could react and even radio in on the snipers position small but controlled bursts left the hands of the Sentinel Recon team as they took down quietly the soliders before they could call for help. 'Clear' was heard in the team leader helmet, as he continued to side step into the waiting War Bird before ordering his men to board and secure the subjects. Private Jack Mitchell, ex- ATLAS solider and full time commander of the Sentinel Task Force mounted into the cockpit of the bird before giving a thumbs up to the sniper as two flashes of the scope tinted his eyes. He turned his men waving his fingers in a circular movement before they either got in or stay down for thier next positions. Those that had stayed on the ground were ordered to meet at the rendezvous point along with the sniper and once the signal was given again the War Bird soared across the air before turning invisble and heading in the opposite direction and into the wooded parts of the city. Jack Mitchell left the bubble of the cockpit before leaving control of the bird to his co - pilot, as he bent down to cut the bags of the sacks tossing and turning inside, he radioed in to Cormack. "Cormack, I have the subjects with us and we need immediate evac once we land." "Roger that Mitchell! It's good you haven't died on me yet brother" A chuckle was heard at the end of the radio. As Mitchell cut the first bag he was met with an unlikely suprise as he stood face to face with a not so happy Rainbow Pegasus. From across the sky the War Bird was flying across the clean open blue before the War Bird was rocking to the side.... //-------------------------------------------------------// Pain //-------------------------------------------------------// Pain As the warbird tipped to its side but quickly retracting upwards from the initial movement, the Sentinel Soliders were either trying to hold down the blue rainbow pony or either hugging against the walls of the helo as punches were thrown in all direction as the element of loyalty continued to lash out against the 'bad' guys. "TAKE this! You bucking monkeys!" As she kicked off the solider who tried to get near her as her arms were being held behind but with a sudden furl of her wings she managed to knock back her would be captives as she moves around the compartment of the war bird. She had no idea what she was doing but there was no way in hell that these monsters can take over Equestria and hurt her friends and the next time she saw Discord, there was going to be worlds of hurt when she get her hooves around his neck. But as she was contemplating an escape another solider rushed and pinned her against the wall as Mitchell crossed his arms in a headlock as he began to calm down the angry little pony. "Shhh.. its alright, I'm not here to hurt you little one. I am not the enemy! We are Sentinel!" "Like tartarus you are!" But as Rainbow Dash tried to hit out and punch Mitchell in the face, the moment she let her guard down he took advantage and quickly pushed her further against the wall as her face begain to grow pale from the lack of oxygen before her arms fell limp as Mitchell loosened his grip before she fell down to the cold metal floor. With the commotion dying down, the other guys picked up the knocked out Pony as they ducked taped her arms and legs together as they clipped her wings from trying to fly, and to keep her from hurting herself. As the soliders bent down to pick up thier weapons and further guard the other moving bags commander Mitchell was pretty annoyed and far from suprised as it was an understatement as he radioed back to Gideon at the rendezvous point. "This Mitchell, to Commander Gideon. Gideon WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE THINGS! PONIES?" "Gideon to Mitchell, we have orders to keep low and to bring back the valuable targets to evac and I am just as suprised like you Mitchell, landing was pretty rough and securing the area from those monstrous Lion Scorpion things was not easy but we managed, so pull yourself together!" "But this is madness! WE are in a new world and this is out of our league. Irons managed to take over the Castle near the mountains and I am bringing back Ponies? Who's idea was this to write down our orders?" "Comes from the top brass Mitchell! Gideon out!" The other end went silent. As the war bird was nearing the landing zone, rapid firing tore through the windows as the pilot blood splattered against the consoles and all over the winows as his corpse let the war bird drop. Mithcell ran and desperatley continued to pull back the throttle in emergency manual but the helo continued to spin out of control. Having no choice he yelled out to the passangers as he maydayed to Gideon. "GIDEON, WAR BIRD HAS BEEN HIT!!! I REPEAT WAR BIRD HAS BEEN HIT!! WE ARE GOING DOWN!" "MITCHELL, hold on there we are coming from the east and to your location, PROTECT THE TARGETS at all cost!" But the connection was lost as the War birds right wing tore off from the weak shielding as caliber weapons contiuned to tear as the war bird crashed through the trees tearing and further smashing the helo until it had come to a complete stop in the middle of the forst floor. The Sentinel for a loss of moment agonizingly got up on thier legs from the aftershock of the crash but the first to walk out of the burning wreck went down from the firepower of an XMG as Jack regained focus as he pulled out a threat grenade as it highlighted the enemies from behind thier cover. Small unit of ATLAS Soliders, a walker tank and a Solider weilding XMG'S. Shit. They kept thier heads down as the Enemy forces continued to rain down on thier position as they lay in the burning War Bird with the targets firmly shielded from the frags, one of the men bent down on his knees as he fires back at the group of soliders managing to get two of them before half of his arms were blown off as the electrical machinery mixed with the blood and dark oil of his exo. Princess Celestia,  who began to stir from her sleep began to see fuzzy movements until she met face to face with a dead warrior but holding back a alarming shout. But it never came as loud screeching noise was hitting around her as she began to look around. She was sitting in a wreck with one of the soliders hiding behind cover, he didn't know that she was awake but she had a chance to strike back. She began to ready a spell to knock out her captive untill she saw from the corner of her eyes an unescapable object heading towards them. A spining MAAW missle. However with just in time her spell tore through the projectile but exlpoded 200 feet from where they were situated but from the blow of the missle sent scattering pieces as one hit her across the head for the last time. As Mitchell saw the blast from right behind him he saw that one of the ponies was hit and slowly losing blood, but as he got down to quickly tend to her injuries a bullet tore through his shoulder as he went down. By this time the ATLAS soliders were advancing nearing thier position but as Mitchell pulled out his Grach from the hip praying he'd take some with him a loud swoosh was hear next to him. Gideon, raced on his hover bike as he smashed trough the assault hitting the XMG Human turrent before bullets made contact with the ATLAS soliders as it exited from the ASM1's of the Sentinel Recon groups into the ATLAS ballisitics. The Walker Tank readied its turret but was blow away from the emp blast as one of the Sentinels got up on its roof as he punched into the entrance throwing down a smart grenade before dodging out of the way as loud explosions tore through the bulk of the tank as it fell down with fires screeching everywhere. Celestia who could still see tried to keep her eyes open but it began to fail due to so much blood she was losing, but as her conciousiness began to win over the last things she saw was that one of the solider quickly ran to the solider who was bleeding from his right arm before knocking his hands away as he pointed at the fallen Princess. Gideon quickly shouted orders as he turned to her with a look of worry in his eyes but by staring at him made Celestia feel something... hope. Celestia went black. Celestia tore her eyes open as she saw the white cieling of the room, but as she began to move she felt something attached to her bodys but with quick realization she was not in a pony hospital but the whole bed was too huge for her and the monitor right next to her displayed numbers and symbols far from what her Medical staff has. As she began to move in her bed she got a look of her room. Everything around her was so white and all around her she saw seats that had circeld around the isalnd but what caught her eyes was the windows next to her monitors as she was dumbfounded from where she laid. Huge builidngs some the size of her own castle tore through the sky with flashing symbols of the words Yum and further strange written symbols almost compared to the olden language of her father. But what really stood out was the flying blimps that loomed over head as movies? played with the most squintiest looking human cheerinly happy as he began to sing out sporting dark shades as he began to dance as if he were riding on top of something. She turned back to her room before she met eyes with another human, as the nurse stopped what she was doing as she ran outside the doors, but before Celestia can yell out to her that where she was another human came in alongisde who Celestia presumed was the doctor but what really feared her the most was not from how he looked but how he calmly sat down next to her. "Please try to relax, there is plenty of time. I need to tell you something. You've been in a coma for quite some time." She turned to lift up her hoofs but she saw that it was replaced with a plastic attachment. Sudden pain and fear spread over her body as she saw that everywhere she laid she had thousands of stitches and burns. What happened? "I am afraid to tell you this Miss Celestia but it has been 5 years........" //-------------------------------------------------------// Deep Impact //-------------------------------------------------------// Deep Impact Celestia laid there in complete silence as a numb feeling began to crawl up where her wings used to be and with the realization far from reasoning she could only begin to feel the tears go down her cheeks as the doctor acknowledged she wanted to be alone. As the door closed behind him Celestia looked towards the outside windows of her room as the sun began to set. She was a pathetic excuse of a leader who abandoned her Ponies when they needed her most in these dark times as she tells herself that she is a Good Pony, but she also reminded herself she was selfish of her own safety and not of her subjects. She broke down and all of that remaining hope vanished. As the Sun Goddess continued to cry in pain for her Kingdom and herself she was blissfully unaware of a particular figure who stood behind her as he placed a hand on top of her shoulders. She quickly turned around as she was met with Jack Mitchell as he stood fully donned in his Exo Career suit as he looked calmly in her eyes. “Don't hold back, let it all out.” Before she could attempt to knock his hands away from her alongside stood a familiar Purple Pony as she let her guard down as Twilight ran up to her mentor as they both embraced a hug. “Twilight, you are here! But why have you..” “It's alright Princess he is a good guy and you wouldn't believe the technology these humans have that rival even our own” After those last words Twilight brought up a Tablet the news was streamed across the surface of the glass as Celestia was transfixed with the topic of war in the Middle East and the different ethnic cleansing operations that these dictator are bringing in the name of their Gods. She became disgusted as she could only cringe as Twilight put away her Tablet as the rest of the mane 6 came and greeted their lost Princess of the Sun. As words were said and many tears have shed, Jack Mitchell could only study how these equine creatures shared similar traits of daughters and mother relationships especially with the dark purple Pony. With the commotion dying down Commander Cormack alongside with two of his finest Sentinels walked in on there reunion. “As much as I love that all of you are back together, I must intrude and inform you on what you have missed Miss...” “Princess Celestia, please” As Celestia had a uneasy look as Cormack pulled out a chair from out of the nearby guest table as he brought out his own Tablet as he began to explain the nature of the situation. “Forgive me your highness, but a great ordeal ravishes across the lands of your Kingdom as the ATLAS Corporation has enslaved great numbers of your Ponies and we expect high casualties especially the nobility..” “All are the same, no pony is better then the other” “Yes, as I repeat all of them have been sentenced to work in the dark caverns of the mines that the Diamond Dogs once held that is when Irons wiped out these species using the manticore project” Pictures were swiped as Cormack held many brutal pictures of the Diamond Dogs with pale and faces of terror as the chemical attack took their lives and some of them held pups as they tried to shield them from the inevitable. “We have received word that ATLAS is operating large experimentation with both humans and ponies but Iron's continues to deny these claims at the human rights group at the UN” A video showing the date and time it had taken was two years into Celestia coma as he told the public and denied any claims of using people in experiments with his signature smile and confidence as he continued to tell the press on what ATLAS has accomplished and reminded those who brought down the biggest eastern terrorist cell known as the KVA. “It may seem a long time your highness but Intel says that 5 years on earth is two weeks in your world and I recommend we intervene as we are ordered to arrest and bring Irons to..” “ENOUGH” Celestia sat up as she has had enough with these humans invading her lands and they think that she is going to let other humans handle what she is capable of doing herself. “I DONT KNOW WHO YOU THINK YOU ARE BUT IF YOU THINK THAT YOU CAN INTERVENE WITHOUT MY AUTHORITY YOU ARE SADLY MISTAKEN, AND WHEN I SEE DISCORD I WILL MAKE SURE THAT HE FACES SEVER PUNISHMENT” “He is actually being held against his will, Celestia” The sun Goddess was taken back as Cormack pulled out a projection out of thin air as the visible screen began to show Discord receiving water boarding and beating as ATLAS Soldiers were visually seen raping him as Irons stood and watched the torture. After having had enough, Irons was clearly seen walking into the room as his large Cuban left his mouth as he rammed it against the eyes of Discord as he began to whisper in his ears. “Find me those Princess or your ass is on my wall Discord, I promised the board that they receive a special gift that they can enjoy amongst themselves after we have pillaged and kill off these inferior Ponies once we have finished mining the ore and large amounts of Petroleum.” Then Irons was seen picking out a blunt object as he rammed it down his throat with Discord crying out loud as the small time bomb was lodges against his stomach as it poked out. “I won't let you go easily Discord but after what happened to my son, I will make sure that these ponies don't go alone I can still use some help but only if you find me those wretched Elements as well” “But Irons, we had a deal” “NO I AM THE ONE IN CHARGE! I WILL SHOW THEM THE TRUE POWER OF ATLAS AND ONCE MANTICORE IS FINISHED THEN THE WORLD WILL BE OUT FOR US TOO! So be nice and do as your told.” Then static was met. “Johnathon Irons, CEO of the largest PMC army in the world at the age of 67 controls not one but almost all communication infrastructures and transport grid after he incinerated the KVA and he is the most questioned man on the earth as experts and Governments believe he is hiding weapons of mass destruction and is plotting to take over the world.” Cormack finally got up from his seat as knelt down and gently told Celestia of the reality of their problem. “I need your permission for the Sentinel Task Force to intervene into your lands as we are going to apprehend Mr. Irons because I fought alongside his son William and I know Will never wanted his father to commit such acts of violence to your people!” He looked out the window as the War Birds continued to circle the perimeter as reports were on hold with the army ready to move on command. “We will help you fight and in return you will give us sanction to your land as we will free the Ponies of your world, All I need is your saying and the hammer will drop. What do you say?” The room became quiet as Celestia further used her magic as she sat upright on her bed as everyone's eyes were on her. As the moments passed she saw from outside the turning point of Darkness taking over the light but it created something that was far from her control. Truce. “Yes, Mister Cormack I give you permission to intervene into national security and once your mission is done .. I never want to see you human again..................”
