SINGULARITYby melon21ChaptersThe CraterThe FightThe jobThe riverside houseThe CrimeThe Ring.The CraterJuly 4th 2012 Australia, QLD Australian Defense Force transport vehicle 9th battalion, Foxtrot squad A military truck carrying 4 passengers, 200km from nearest city or town Alex Jordan, Call-sign: “Ghost” Ever since the truck had embarked on its long journey, nobody had said a word aside from the odd complaint about the heat. It was silent. One of the troopers, code named Zed, decides to break the silence; “So when do you think we are going to get to outpost Echo, Ghost?” “In around 5 to 6 hours, so you better get settled in.” Shrugging, Zed leans against the tarp wall of the truck and falls asleep, while I check my weapon to pass the time. Eventually I fall asleep as well until a sudden loud pop is heard and the truck grinds to a halt. One of the back tires had popped so the squad and I got out and decided to stretch our legs. “Hey, Sarge, I've got to take a piss. If I get eaten by a giant spider, send my remains to Canberra.” “Was that supposed to be humorous, Ghost?” Asks Sargent Seaford. “Maybe.” I say. “Well, don’t take too long. We've got to keep moving, and Jake has nearly finished putting on the new tyre.” “Alright Sarge.” I say as I head towards some secluded bushes where I can piss in peace. I vault over a fallen trunk and pass through some bushes to find a massive crater. I slide down into the crater to explore it, like any sane person would do. I reach the bottom. There are chunks of rock strewn about everywhere and some are glowing. So of course, like any sane person, I pick up one of the glowing rocks to take a closer look at it. After about 10 minutes of getting back up the crater, I go back to the truck and show the squad what I found and where the crater is. They don't take any rocks, but instead take a couple pictures. We then continue on our merry way towards outpost Echo. We all clamber in the back of the truck and continue off on our journey. After about 20 kilometers of nothing but trees and shrubs, I doze off for the rest of the journey... Author's Note don't you all worry your little heads about the fact that there is no mlp yet but there will be. just you wait and see. welp im tired ill continue writing tommrow The FightTwilight is a regular old purple unicorn who was reading in the library until her 5 friends burst in through the front door, claiming that they had seen a giant flash of light in the Everfree Forest, Twilight, the inquisitive unicorn that she was, teleported herself and her five friends to the Everfree Forest. They split up to go look for the flash of light’s location. That way they could cover more ground and hopefully find it faster. Twilight headed North while the rest of the gang went their respective ways. While this was happening, I was walking towards what I'd find to be Ponyville. I eventually reached a ridge overlooking a small town; I grabbed my binoculars and looked down towards the town. “Wait are those technicolor ponies...?” I ask. "This... Is DEFINITELY not Australia..." I whisper under my breath, in a rather dissapointed tone. I started heading down towards the town to see if there were any people around so I can find out what the fuck was up with the... ponies? Whatever they are... After not finding any people around, whislt also gaining quite a few stares from ponies around the town, I decide that I should try to at least go to the town hall and... buy a house or something. “With what cash?" I ask myself; "All I have is some pocket lint and some spare change.” So I go to find a job or something, when I am approached by a few, presumably, male ponies carrying various weapons. “You’re in the wrong part of town you… creature.” One of them says. I raise my assault rifle at the thugs. “Am I really? Gee I hadn't noticed, mate.” I say, sarcastically. (Which is a bad idea) One of them points their weapon at me. “Yeah, you are, so you better make like a banana and split.” Says the other I aim at the pony who pointed his weapon at me and turn the safety off. “I think you should leave here... 'mate'.” The guy starts to swing his weapon at me and I fire. The bullet enters through his forehead and exits through the back of his head spilling a load of blood onto the ground behind him as he groaned his last groan and fell to the earth, dead. I then aim at his friends and say “You want that to happen to you?” They charge at me and I shoot them, spilling even more blood into the puddle that was gathering on the ground around the dead bodies. I flick my safety back on and check my ammo “I've got 22 rounds left. Good.” I check their pockets for any money; I find some gold coins and take them. “Might come in handy later.” I say as I start heading towards the town hall. Author's Note 2 chapters today hooray! The jobMeanwhile, Twilight and her friends decided to give up looking, and went back to their homes to rest or to work. Whilst I, not knowing what was happening, finally found the town hall. As I entered the town hall, I looked around to find the front desk or something. eventually I find it and ask the receptionist, who eyes me with curiosity, how much it would cost to buy a house. "A house costs 2,000 bits, and - if you dont mind me asking - what exactly are you?" She says, looking about as puzzled at my appearance as I am of hers. "Well im a human -- but you probably have never heard of a human, so it makes sense that you would ask that question." I answer, feeling more awkward as the words rushed out of my mouth. I take the gold 'bits' out of my pocket and count them out; I have about 150 or so 'bits'. I mutter to myself "Damn... I really do need to get a job." I ask the receptionist where I can find a job. "I think there is an opening at Sugar Cube Corner. I'm not QUITE sure, but it would be a great place to start..." She answers, rather surprised at my change of reason for being there. I thank her and procede to leave the town hall to head towards the town centre. After losing my way a couple times, I ask someone - somepony? I honestly dont know. They point me in the direction of Sugar Cube Corner and then say "It's hard to miss." so I walk off, looking for something extremely hard to miss and suddenly, I see it. "Well colour me pink and call me a rather unique Japanese treat, there is no way you could miss this lump of diabetes inducing sugar." I mutter as my eyes are met with the treat sales establishment. I walk inside and wait in line to go to the register. Many of the ponies stared at me and got out of my way because they obviously feared me. But, for some strange reason, the pink fuzzball of energy at the counter didn't seem to mind me being there. If anything, she seemed happy to see me. "Welcome to sugar cube corner! What can I get ya?" She said in a high pitched, joyful tone. She wore a smile so large, I swore she was possessed or something. "Well I'm looking for a job and I heard that you may have an opening...?" I said, nervously. "We do have an opening but--" her words were cut off when she saw me. gasping and hanging in mid air for longer than is pyhsically possible for a pony or human to do, then she zipped away at the speed of sound. (I think we might have a world record setter over here...) I was left confused at the counter but another pastel pony came and took fuzzball's place. "Don't mind her, dear. She does this sometimes. So I heard you wanted a job?" She said. Apparently ignoring the fact I was a human and not a pony. "Yes, I would like a job." "Well then you can clean the kitchen. its a mess in there, I will pay you of course, how does 100 bits sound?" "It's not enough but I can do it" I thought to myself. "Sure, that's fine." I said to the slightly chubby baker. "Great! I won't delay you so just go through this door, grab a mop and start cleanin'!" As I entered through the door to the kitchen, I picked up a mop and took a look around. A mess? This place looks like a bomb went off in the flour bag. With an ungratefully long SIGH, I got to work cleaning the floors. Author's Note back in bidness. The riverside houseAfter I finished my 'small' job at Sugar Cube Corner, I took my money and went to find another job. So I walked around for a while, looking for anywhere that I could get a job. After hours of endless searching, I decided to ask a random pony on the street. "Hey, do you know where I could find a job?" I asked the first pony I saw. "I heard that Twilight needed somepony to help her organise her books." Said the rather intimidated pony. She had brown fur and a charcoal mane and tail. She also had a very sophisticated accent. "And where can I find this... Twilight?" I asked in return, rather painfully being reminded of a certain series of movies and books. "Well, she lives in the library. Just look a for a giant tree on the Northern edge of the village." She said. "A tree...?" I asked, looking rather surprised, though, after what had been happening so far, I'm not all that sure WHY I was surprised at all. "Yes, a tree." She answered, then walked off. "Alrighty then..." I say, before I was on my way to look for a giant tree. It wasn't hard to miss, afterall, it is a GIANT tree. I went up to the door and knocked loudly 3 times. While I waited for someone-er... somepony to answer the door, I twiddled my thumbs. Eventually a purple unicorn opens the door and says; "Yes, what do you wan-" she stopped mid-sentence after seeing me. And, I swear her jaw literally hit the floor. "I'm here for a job...? I heard that you needed some help, so I thought I could give you a hand...?" The purple unicorn stayed silent. "Well, if you don't need me, I'll be going now..." I said. She just stood in the doorway, mouth wide open, dumbfounded. I walked around looking for a job and, after about 6 or 7 jobs, I had gathered enough money to buy a house. So I went to the town hall to speak to the pony I had orginally talked to about buying a house. I asked the pony if I could buy a house and put all of my money on the desk. She handed me the keys to a riverside house. I took them and went to my new house. Author's Note sorry this one took a little longer than expected. The Crimewell sorry to burst your bubble guys but the story is canceled until the holidays. im sorry but i just cant do it. school is just weighing down on me so yeah im sorry. The Ring.We arrive at outpost Echo around 12:30 am. It is dark... very dark. We all climb out of the truck and I start heading towards the barracks to hopefully get some rest until my next shift. The barracks aren't too bad, but they aren't good either. I describe it as “not too much space but I can make it work.” Placing my stuff beside the bed I take out the rock and examine it; it’s still glowing. I keep looking at it for at least 10 minutes. I put the rock down and lay down on the bed, thinking about what I found. Eventually, I fall asleep. I wake up the next morning to the Sarge shaking me awake. “Rise and shine, Ghost.” He says. I get up and ask him “What’s up Sarge?” “Time for your shift, Ghost.” Says the Sarge, with an obvious tone of irritance. “Right.” I take out my assault rifle and put on my patrolling gear and leave with the Sarge to go get breakfast. After breakfast, we head out to our respective positions near the front gate. After about 2 to 3 hours of nothing happening, I decide to go take a walk, so I tell Sarge and walk off into the bushes. After making sure I was out of sight, I studied the rock some more. I discover that it is hollow, so I take out my knife and try to cut it open, the rock doesn't open because, I’m using a knife not, say… a hammer. After our guard shift I go to the tool shed and try to crack the rock. After about 50 or 60 smacks with a hammer, the rock finally cracks open. On the bottom of the rock, there is a small golden ring. Nothing abnormal about it, besides the fact that it was inside a meteorite. I, of course - being the perfectly smart person that I am - put the ring on and suddenly there is a bright flash -- think flash bang but times it by 5- and quite suddenly, I appear in a forest. “Where the fuck did I end up?” I asked aloud, as I looked around the dense shrubbery. “Where ever I am, it’s definitely not Australia...” I say. Rather accurately, if I must say so myself. Author's Note a little shorter than the first chapter but hopefully you will enjoy stuff actually happening this time. also i saw that new Jurassic world commercial so hyped!
