After John passed out, Celestia had the suit stripped from him and had him be taken by a pair of guards. She had brought him back to the crystal castle for a nurse to look at him.

"Is there anything wrong with him." Celestia asked as she watched the sleeping figure of John. The heart rate monitor giving out soft beeps as the humans heart beat away.

"Besides the fact that we could barely get the needle through his skin? No, there is nothing wrong with him. He seems perfectly healthy... I think." Red Heart said, muttering those last words.

Celestia said nothing as her horn started to glow. Conjuring a pair of magical shackles, locking his wrist to the crystal bed post. "Guards." She called. And two royal guards stepped into the room, spears in tow. "Yes my princess?" They both droned.

"Make sure nopony enters this room without me." She stated.

"Yes princess."

"And make sure he stays in bed."

They both nodded. As soon as they began to move to their positions, Celestia heard John move around his his bed. She turned to see him sit upright. He struggled against the shackle. Grunts of frustration were heard as he tugged the chain connecting him to the bed.

"Celestia~ you better have a key for this." He said, pointing at the magical handcuff.

"I do. But for now, you're being held until I can determine if you're going to be a problem."

"I'll be a fucking problem if you don't get rid of this." His tone getting more irritated.

A guard stepped forward and lowered his spear to John's face. "You shall not disrespect the princess beast."

John looked around the room, ignoring the guard. "Where's my suit?"

"I'm having Twilight look at it."

John's face took on a look of anger. "If she lays a fucking finger— hoof on my suit, I'll—"

"You won't do anything, you're not escaping this room." Celestia interrupted. She activated her horn and began to push John back into his bed. The heart rate monitor began to beep at an accelerated rate. Adrenaline began to pump through John's cybernetic brain, enhancing the effects as he began to push against the magic. Celestia struggled at the humans new found strength. John tugged harder at the magical shackle, this time the bed post broke with it, he swung it and caught the bed post in his hands.

The guards rushed him with spears and lunged at him, he was able to dodge one, but the other caught him in the stomach, his hardened skin barely letting it pierce beyond a couple of inches. John brought the crystal club up and swung it downward into the closest guard's helmet, leaving large dent in the helmet as the guard collapsed. The other saw his comrade fall, he lunged once more, only to be stopped as a hand caught it it and ripped it from his grip. John dropped the spear to his feat and clubbed the remaining guard.

John looked up to Celestia who had her horn lowered, as if she was going to spear him with it. "This is your last chance!" She yelled. "Give up and you'll be spared!"

John let out an inhumane snarl that would have put a Manticore to shame. He pulled on the club with one hand, while pulling the shackle with the other. The shackle finally broke and he tossed the block of crystal at Celestia, and he ran to her. Celestia saw the crystal, but not John, she teleported to Twilight to let her know that it was not safe, but as soon as the teleportation finished, she saw that she had brought John with her.

Twilight saw both John and Celestia pop into existence. Fear shot through her when she saw the human.

"Twilight! Run!" Celestia shouted. But John was already on her. He kicked her away from the suit, launching her body into the wall. She wasn't harmed too much, she was just going to be sore in the morning. John laid down into the suit, which activated and closed around him. He got up from the floor, the metal plates of the suit grinding away at each other as he did so.

"Suit." John said, his voice guttural and scratchy. "Activate Operation Lock and Key." As he said that, Celestia heard and saw the suit tighten and lock around it's wearer. The floor below him cracked slightly as the suit entered the modified lockdown. A pained grunt escaped him.

"You want me to be a problem Celestia? I'll give you that and more." He stated before breaking into a sprint towards the alicorn. Raising fist and lunging forward, only to punch the wall that Celestia had been up against. The wall cracked under the suits strength. Celestia had teleported herself and Twilight out of the room. She was met with a number of her guards.

"Guards! Subdue the creature at all costs!" They nodded at the command.

All of them jumped as metal fist burst through the door behind the princess. The fist was drawn back and a mask was seen on the other side of the door.

"Here's Johnny!" The human yelled in his guttural tone. Before ripping the door from its hinges.

Click "Today went well. My employers wanted me to install a fail safe directive into the suit. So, should the wearer be captured and needs to stay in the suit at all costs, he or she would need to activate Operation: Lock and Key. Lock and Key makes the suit unable to open from any outside source. The wearer would need to deactivate it themselves. The whole thing makes it like a mobile Lockdown Mode. No bombs, bullets, or technology will get that thing to open up again. You may move a bit slower, but it makes everything that gets thrown at you seem like wads of paper against a brick wall." A scream sounded off in the distance. Click

"What's going on?!" John yelled. His voice echoing off of the walls of the large room.

"It's the subjects! They escaped, the new one helped them!" A woman shouted as she ran into the room, closing the door behind her.

"Oh fuck." A look of pure fear ran over his bearded face. He brought a large recorder up to his face. He looked to his peer and said. "Suzy, it's been a pleasure working with you." He looked away.

Click "If anyone finds this, I just wanted to say. I'm not sorry about what I did. I wanted to make peoples lives better. My name is Johnson Barder. I'm a scientist for the Big Mountain research team. An organization of scientists brought together by the U.S. government to further the technology we already have." The man sighed. "We had a good run, but some... technical difficulties won't allow us to work anymore."

"John! They're trying to bust the door down!" Suzy screamed.

"Okay! Let's get out of here." Click John dropped the recorder and ran to Suzy. He guided her to an escape exit meant for emergencies, and this seemed like the time to use it. He looked back to the room to look at everything they had made. A giant white tarp covering the suit he was building and a number of other technologies. He looked down into the hole to see Suzy looking back up at him with worried eyes. He jumped down to her and closed the hatch with a push of a button.

As soon as the hatch closed, what seemed like hundreds of people stormed in, snarling like animals. Waving proton axes about. One of them that stood out walked forward with determination, a number of the Big Empty technologies sticking out of his bare skin. He saw the device on the ground and picked it up. He looked at the device as his brethren left the room, snarling and screaming in anger. He pushed a button and recordings began to play. A smile crept up to his face.

An hour later.

"...Okay! Let's get out of here." Click

The man dropped the recorder and said in a pitch perfect copy of the recordings voice. "My name is John Barder. I'm a scientist for Big Empty." He stomped on the device, making sure to destroy it. The man looked to the tarp in the far corner of the room. An even wider grin spread on his face.

"And I'm going to escape."
