Chapter 1
Chapter 1: Where are They?
“GAH!” Twilight Sparkle woke up with a scream. She had the most terrible nightmare, and she had forced herself to wake up. It was pouring rain outside, along with the occasional thunder or lightning.
“What happened tonight?” Spike asked Twilight Sparkle. Spike had heard her talk about her strange dreams.
“It terrible...” Twilight Sparkle told Spike, “There was this pale creature, and evil armored ponies, and an evil man, and there was-”
“Twilight Sparkle, are you sure this isn’t one of your future dreams?” Spike interrupted.
“No! It was just a bad dream!” Twilight Sparkle responded, tiredly.
“Sure, Twilight, sure...” Spike finished, going back to sleep. Twilight Sparkle also decided to nod off to sleep as well.
Meanwhile, across town, Fluttershy was sleeping in her small, fluffy bed. It had bright pink blankets, with pillows stuffed with the softest down, given to her by her bird friends.
Suddenly, a small screech could be heard from Fluttershys meadow. Fluttershy immediately woke up, put on her rain gear, and walked outside nervously, to see what had made the noise.
“H-Hello...” Fluttershy announced her presence, trying to gain whatever was in her meadows attention. A humanoid shape appeared from a bush, and looked at Fluttershy.
This creature was human in shape, though it was much thinner. It had long fingers, large blue eyes, a bald head, and and a small mouth. Whatever it was, it was scared.
“Are you okay?” Fluttershy asked the creature, walking towards it. The creature kneeled down, simply looking at Fluttershy. It slowly advanced towards Fluttershy, trying its hardest not to make a noise.
“Pony?” The creature asked.
“Yes, my name is Fluttershy” Fluttershy introduced herself, “What is your name?”
“Jakal...” The creature introduced himself. It held its hand out, and Fluttershy touched hands with Jackal.
“Would you like to come inside?” Fluttershy offered Jakal, to which he nodded, and the two went inside to weather the storm.
The next day, it was still pouring rain, and very few ponies were out and about. However, it was odd that a rain would last this long. It was Rainbow Dash’s job to keep everything relating to weather in working order. Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie met to discuss the strange occurrence.
“Where the heck is Rainbow Dash?” Rarity asked the group.
“She’s probably doing something Wonderbolts related...” Applejack suggested.
“But would she really neglect her duties this much? And during summer of all times?” Twilight Sparkle pointed out.
“You make a good point!” Pinkie Pie cheerfully stated, “Let’s go to her house!”
A few minutes later, they reached Rainbow Dash’s apartment, and buzzed themselves in. When they got in to Rainbow Dash’s apartment, it looked ransacked. Books were turned over, clothes were all over the place, and there was claw marks on the walls, indicating a break in.
“We need to call a search party! Check to see if other tenants went missing!” Twilight Sparkle assigned the group, “Applejack, I want you to see where Fluttershy is and what she is doing right now, okay?”
“Can do!” Applejack responded, running to Fluttershy’s place. A few minutes later, Pinkie Pie and Rarity returned from their search.
“Another pegasus went missing named Cloud Kicker!” Rarity reported to Twilight Sparkle.
“And two unicorns, named Sea Swirl and Minuette!” Pinkie Pie added, “Along with two earth ponies, named Daisy and Golden Harvest!”
“That makes six!” Twilight Sparkle stated.
Meanwhile, Applejack had reached Fluttershy’s house, and began to knock on her door. Applejack knew that Fluttershy could be anti-social, but not to this level.
“Fluttershy! Open this door now!” Applejack ordered. She grew impatient and simply kicked down the door, style wasn’t Applejacks strong suit. She looked through her house, and saw Fluttershy and Jakal. When she saw Jackal, Applejack screamed.
“Wait!” Fluttershy stopped Applejack, covering her mouth, “He’s a friend of mine!”
“Friend?” Applejack whispered to Fluttershy.
“Friend...” Jakal said, walking towards Applejack, trying to smile. He held out his long, thin hand, looking for some form of attention. Jakal looked like he hadn’t eaten food, drank clean water, or had some simple love and care in a while.
“Yes, Friend” Applejack responded, touching his hand.
“Well, this is Jakal, Applejack” Fluttershy introduced her friend to Applejack.
However, in a large, oddly-shaped mechanical base area, a new scheme of evil was being hatched. A single, human-like being walked through the halls of the sinister location. This human-like being had a toned figure, red hair, blood-red eyes, a large black trenchcoat, and a nasty grin
“Now, my six...awaken!” The man yelled as Rainbow Dash, Cloudkicker, Sea Swirl, Minuette, Daisy, and Golden Harvest were lifted, each one bound to a table like structure.
“Come to me!” The man ordered as he released the six. However, instead of escaping, the of them six seemed to obey his every command.
“Master...” Rainbow Dash moaned as she rubbed up to the man. The man stroked Rainbow Dashes mane, causing her to purr like a cat. He also began to rub Sea Swirls mane, causing her to purr as well.
“Am I a good pony?” Golden Harvest asked her master.
“Yes you are!” The man told Golden Harvest, stroking her mane.
“I love you, master” Daisy told her master.
“Good girls...” The man cooed, letting his six slaves rub against him affectionately, “You girls are very important to me!”
“Really?” Minuette asked her master, rubbing against him affectionately. The man nodded gleefully.
“You shall be used to take over these lands that I have discovered...” The man stated, now laughing evilly. “This land shall be mine, or my name isn’t Kalvus Blood!”
“But how will we do that?” Rainbow Dash quietly asked her master.
“I can’t tell you now...but you shall know soon enough...” Kalvus Blood informed her.
Outside of Ponyville, a portal opened. Out of the portal came a man with white hair, blue eyes, wearing a blue and silver spandex suit, along with silver-colored lightweight armor. He had two futuristic laser-pistols in two gun holsters.
“Mission Report Forty-Seven” This man recorded, “I’ve arrived. Now my next directive is to retrieve the escaped prisoner, and bring him to justice. Joseph Lion out!”

Chapter 2: Point of Convergence
Joseph Lion had stealthily reached the edge of Ponyville, and looked around. He then pulled out a small box with the word “Helmet”. Joseph Lion pushed the boxes small, red button, and put it on the ground. As soon as the cube touched the ground, it morphed into a robotic being with a build similar to the HRP-2 robot.
“Happy Birthday!” Helmet announced cheerfully.
“Helmet, we’re on a stealth mission!” Joseph Lion informed Helmet sternly. Joseph Lion wasn’t one for being joyful or playful.
“Sorry!” Helmet apologized.
“Anyways...we need to find Kalvus Blood and his superior, and bring them to justice” Joseph Lion told Helmet. Helmet looked into the sky, and it was still pouring rain.
“Could you have picked a better time? The rain makes my circuits rusty...” Helmet complained. Joseph Lion rolled his eyes. Meanwhile, at the apartment, Pinkie Pie was bouncing around like crazy.
“I can sense something cool!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed, running out of the apartment complex.
“Looks like we’ve got to go follow her...” Twilight Sparkle stated. Twilight Sparkle and Rarity soon began to chase after Pinkie Pie. Back at Fluttershy’s house, Applejack looked outside.
“I got a bad feeling about this...” Applejack thought out loud, “But I need to go rejoin the group”
“Jakal and I will go to!” Fluttershy added.
“No, Jakal would frighten them, and you would be frightened by whatever is there” Applejack told Fluttershy.
“I promise I won’t be frightened...” Fluttershy promised. Applejack rolled her eyes and sighed.
“Okay. You can go with us” Applejack compromised, “But Jakal has to stay here!”
“Jakal go with friends!” Jakal said.
“Fine! You can come too!” Applejack added.
“Yay!” Fluttershy and Jakal cheered, as the three of them went out to rejoin the group. At the mysterious lair of Kalvus Blood, he was doing odd experimentation on the six ponies.
“Interesting...” Kalvus Blood noted, putting Golden Harvest into a chamber. He then pressed a black button, and gas began to fill the chamber.
“Kalvus!” A voice commanded, sitting in a chair, wearing a strange cape and cowl, “What are your results?!”
“Master Reaper, the six I have captured are ready to be mutated!” Kalvus Blood reported, “But I fear that someone has come back to stop us”
“Then send a Zellhound!” Master Reaper declared, slamming his fist on his table.
“Yes sir...” Kalvus Blood responded, walking to a tube, filled with a strange gas and a creature inside of it. He pressed a red button on the tube, opening it. As soon as the gas flowed out, an armored, dog like creature burst out of the tube.
“Go, my Zellhound! Find and destroy our enemies!” Kalvus Blood ordered, as the Zellhound ran out of the base and out into Equestria.
At the point where Joseph Lion and Helmet had arrived, they had began to survey the local area. The weather had changed from rain to fog. Helmet scanned the oxygen content, the gravity, and the local flora and fauna in order to make sure that they were in the right place.
“Helmet, do you hear that?” Joseph Lion asked Helmet.
“Yes. They sound like hooves on the ground” Helmet analyzed, looking in all directions. Joseph Lion pulled out a futuristic flashlight and turned it on, looking through the fog.
“Who’s there?!” Joseph Lion asked, as Pinkie Pie bumped into him, knocking them both over.
“We’re under attack!” Helmet exclaimed as various weapons such as laser rifles, flamethrowers, net launchers, and mini-missiles, opened up through parts of his body and aimed them at Pinkie Pie. Twilight Sparkle and Rarity reached the same point as well, startling them.
“What the heck is that?!” Rarity yelled, pointing at Helmet. Helmet then put away his weapons.
“Are you ponies?” Joseph Lion asked Twilight Sparkle and Rarity.
“Yes, and just what are the two of you?” Twilight Sparkled asked Joseph Lion and Helmet.
“My name is Joseph Millicent Lion, Time-Police of the year 2030” Joseph Lion told Twilight Sparkle, “And this robot here is my partner, Helmet”
“Helmets!” Pinkie Pie giggled.
“Not now, Pinkie Pie!” Rarity told Pinkie Pie.
“Time-Cops?” Twilight Sparkle though out loud, trying to put the pieces together.
“We were given a special mission, to find and arrest Master Reaper and Kalvus Blood, on charges of trying to take over the world” Joseph Lion told Twilight Sparkle.
“Interesting...did these two kidnap people?” Twilight Sparkle asked.
“Yes. But now he has resorted to kidnapping ponies” Helmet stated.
“He must be the one who kidnaped Rainbow Dash and the others!” Twilight Sparkle figured out. As soon as Twilight Sparkle finished her sentence, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Jakal came towards the group.
“EEEEEK! What the heck is that?!” Rarity screamed, pointing at Jakal.
“It kind of looks like a strange creature...” Twilight Sparkle stated. Helmet then scanned Jakal, doing an anaylsis.
“DNA Scan, unknown. This creature has fifty-nine chromosomes” Helmet analyzed, speaking aloud his results. As if more things could arrive at this point, a growl could be heard.
“Jakal, was that you?” Fluttershy asked in a scared tone.
“Zellhound!” Joseph Lion announced, pulling out his laser pistol and firing. The Zellhound dodged each of the laser bullets and jumped out at Twilight Sparkle.
“Eat this!” Helmet yelled as he blasted a sharpnel missile at the Zellhound, blowing it into a lot of mechanical pieces.
“WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?!?!” Rarity demanded.
“Stop being such a little wuss! We’re safe now!” Applejack told Rarity.
“Whose house is closest to us?” Joseph Lion asked.
“Sweet Apple Farm is the closest!” Twilight Sparkle told the group, “Let’s go there!”
Back at the lair of Master Reaper, Kalvus Blood was finishing up mutating the six ponies. He pressed a red button, and began to laugh maniacally. Out of the chamber came six new ponies. One of them was a now a plant-like creature, a heavily armored creature, a liquid creature, a eletric creature, a sharp-clawed creature, and a creature with giant black metal wings.
“Go, my six and destroy them all!” Kalvus Blood ordered as the creatures deployed.
