My Little Pony: Origins
A New World, an Old Mission
Previous ChapterNext ChapterDempsey came to, lying in the mud that had seeped into the bunker. Lifting his head, he shook it to clear it of the clinging mud. His vision was blurry, all he could see where faint outlines of objects, no defined shapes, to rub his head, he raised a limb to rub his head, when he felt something hard slam into his forehead. “Ow, don’t remember picking up a rock” After a few seconds his vision cleared, he tapped the end of his limb on his forehead, “Think, think, think, what happene-” It was then he realised his limb was covered in hair, and at the end was a hoof. “What the-”
A german voice came in the form of a groan, “Dempsey, what happened to you?”
“Richtofen, is that you, what do you mean?” Dempsey asked.
“I don’t mean to alarm you, but-” Richtofen began, out of Dempsey’s field of view.
Dempsey grew impatient, “Just spit it out!”
“You seem to have transformed into a pony.” Richtofen said.
“What? Where would-” Dempsey shut his muzzle when he saw that Richtofen was pony, a light gray unicorn, with a black mane and tail. Looking down at his shadow, and legs, he realised that he too had become a pony, a white earth pony with an ammo belt and knife around his neck, lacking any form of a mane, instead he had his normal blonde hair style he had when he was human, and a short, near nonexistent tail, just as Richtofen had said. “Where are the others?”
Richtofen pointed a hoof to two other figures lying in the mud, Takeo, and Nikolai, both unconscious, but starting to come around.
“I think I drank too much vodka.” Nikolai said, he was an earth pony as well, with a light brown coat, darker scarf, and hat with the red star on it hid his chocolate brown mane. “So am I only one seeing every one as ponies?”
Takeo was the next to answer, “No Nikolai, we are all ponies.” Takeo was a white pegasi, with a black mane and tale, with a samurai sword in its sheath at his hip. “So what is the plan now german?”
Suddenly, hordes of reanimated flash sentry dolls began to rise from the ground, groaning, and eyes shining yellow.
Always the first one to fire the shot, Dempsey fired his Mareser C96 at the first one, making its reanimated husk fall to the ground, killed. “Same as before, keep killing freak bags, save the girl, and find a way out of this place.”
“Some how I now find never ending hordes of the undead less terrifying, possible due to the fact that they are all Flash Sen-NIEN!” Richtofen stabben one that came near him with his horn.
Only six had unearthed themselves, and after all were dealt with, Samantha came to speak once more. “Oh look, my little ponies, I wonder if they are enjoying themselves?”
“What have you done to us Samantha?” Richtofen demanded.
“Insurance to make sure that you will free me from my prison. And you are all no longer the men you were once, now you are Edward Richoofen, Tank Demanesey, Nikolai Poninsi, and Takeo Manesaki.”
“Ha ha, they are pony puns on our names, very funny,” Demanesey said sarcastically, “Where the heck did you get this idea from anyway, Samantha?”
“Actually you Demanesey, after all, you did suggest to Richoofen to give me some pony toys to play with, now I have some.” The little girl said, sounding so sweet and innocent “And I am no longer Samantha, from now on, you can call me, Samanetha Manesix.”
“AH, Manesix, like ‘Mane Six’, the six main character from the show, I would admire that for a moment if I weren't trying to fight for my life against undead Flash Sentry toys!”
“Very well Richoofen, carry on with your endeavor, but remember this, I am your only way of escaping.” Samanetha said, declaring that only be helping her, would they return home.
“I WILL GET YOU SAMANETHA!” Richoofen yelled.
“You can try, my little pony.” the Demonic Announcer said.
Tank Demanesey grunted in pain, “That hurt, that actually hurt.” The Amareican pony turned to his comrades. “Lets just follow the plan and free the girl.”
“To do that we must start up the 115 Conversion Generators, and arm ourselves to better fend of the wretched hordes.” Richoofen said. “We should start back at the bunker, and figure out our next move there.”
Manesaki spoke next, “Doctor, explain these marks on our flanks, what are their meanings?” He pointed a hoof the his cutie mark, a red circle with red rays coming out of it.
“Yeah, I’ve got one too, and so does Poninski.” Demanesey asked.
“They are your cutie marks.” Richoofen said.
“And they mean what exactly?” Demanesey asked.
“They represent a pony’s special talent or ability.” Richoofen turned so his cutie mark of the Ray Gun Mk one was visible, “Mine represent my ability to do this.” Out of his horn came the blast of the Ray Gun, a green energy beam that exploded when it hit a Flash Sentry Zombie. “Demanesey’s of a gun and knife most likely represents his skills at combat,” He looked to Poninski, whose was of the Hammer and Sickle. “Yours represents your support of the communist movement lead by Starlight Glimmer.“ He turned to Manesaki, inspecting his, whose was somewhat difficult to uncover its meaning, but eventually it came to him. “Yours Takeo, is of your loyalty and devotion to your homeland, and your Emperor.”
Demanesey shot again, “Can we talk about our what ever marks later, when we are not being mobbed by the dead?” He fired repeatedly before knifing the closest zombie, resulting in a large explosion.
“KABOOM!” Came Samanetha again, only for a brief moment, and all the zombies began to fall over, dead.
“The flank, whose dropping bombs?” Demanesey asked, puzzled by the sudden explosion. “And what is with these pony puns, why can’t I stop them?!”
“Its in our nature now Demanesey, we must flee while we can.” Richoofen stated.
More groaning, and rising or more dead could be heard.
“Let's move ponies!” Demanesey ordered, galloping after his allies, then stopping. “Did I seriously just say that?”
“Yes, now RUN!” Takeo said.
the four ran over the side of one of the trenches, and Demanesey threw a grenade at the floor, detonating a short distance from the revitalised Flash Sentries, blowing them to pieces. “Get used to the heat, ‘cuz you’re gonna burn in Tartarus.”
The four galloped as fast at they could, running past zombies after them. “We must make it back the the bunker, it is the first Generator’s location.”
With undead Flash Sentries on their tails, they turned to fight, trying to take down as many as they could.
“We will hold them off, power the Generator.” Manesaki said, drawing his sword, Demanesey stayed behind with him to fight.
With two of their party now gone, Richoofen and Poninski ran to the first Generator.
“How will we power it?” The Earth Pony asked.
Richoofen fiddles with dials, and hit it with his hoof, initializing the convergence sequence, the two glass cylinders filling with liquid 115. As soon as the sequence was initiated, new zombies came up from the floor, curiously they were not Flash Sentry, they were Royal Guard ponies, only in torn, damaged attire, and with glowing white eyes, and hooves. “Run is circle, run in circles!” The Germane pony yelled, then the two ran, only attacking when needed, but when Richoofen was cornered by several, he fired a Ray Gun blast at them.
When the sequence finished, an energy pulse radiated from the machine, and caused the guard zombies to fall to the ground, no longer functional.
“Conversion Generator One is now online.” Came the departed Doctor Ludvig Manesix’s voice.
“Doctor Manesix,” Richoofen said under his breath. He turned to Poninski, “ We must find-”
“Hit the deck!” Came Demanesey’s call as he dove to prone into the bunker, landing a few hooves away from Richoofen and Poninski, accompanied by a flying Manesaki. After a millisecond, a series of five or so explosion occurred, with the groans of the undead Flash Sentries being silences.
“You were saying Germane?” The Crystal Empire pony asked.
“The brain, Dr. M-Manesix was infected...removed his brain...Must be here-” Suddenly Richoofen jumped past several Flash Sentry zombies.
“Richoofen, what the flank do you think you’re doing?” Demanesey yelled, with Manesaki firing his newly acquired Remaneton shotgun at the zombies to clear a way for their ally.
“Ze brain, must find ze brain.” He began looking for, and finding a jar filled with a gray object, and green fluid on a table. After his acquisition, he bolted for the stairs, Ray Gunning a Flash Sentry, to his amusement, in the process.
