The start of an invasion

Teresa CORP Research Facility

         The facility was huge as a storm raged outside. There were scientists running around and pushing papers through higher ups in the company. The commotion was over the new invention that was just deamed operational, and was going to be used to pull off operation Portal Invasion. A particular scientist was running through the halls and trying to avoid any inconvenience that may hit him. He turned down a hall and faced aa electronic elevator door that he opened using a hand print. The door opened and a female voice repeated his name "Good morning doctor Jerico, have a pleasant day" greated him as he entered his brow was covered in sweat from the exercise he received just a few minutes ago. He wiped his chubby face as he stood in the elevator while pressing the button that would send him to the CEO'S office. Jerico looked behind him to the glass curved back of the elevator to see the crowning jewl of his work. The D.R.O. or Dimension Rift Opener. It consisted of a large ramp that lead to two giant steel pillars with electric coils wraped around their tops, out of said coils lightning followed by left over sparks shot out and made a raging electronic zap sound. Under these pillars were computers, cables, and other electronic objects keeping them stable and under control. As they ran around and prepared for a test run, the door to the elevator opened and the doctor turned around to enter the office. CEO office reached, please exit the elevator now, the female voice spoke as it always has. Jerico waked into the office it was fairly plain and dark with what little furnishings in side smooth and grey, which contrasted with the dark blue polished floors.

     "Hello good doctor, please sit down...there is much I wish to discuss with you," said a man in a swivel chair behind a large desk. The doctor took a seat in a chair, though it was hard to stay in it. "I'd like to congratulate you doctor Jerico, I heard your responsible for this beautiful mechanical marvel in front of me," he stood as he finished his sentence. The large windows in front of him showing the D.R.O. which he'd been waiting on for soooo long.

       "Yes mister Rogen, we've been having trouble with the unknown force around the dimension that we had deemed livable and suitable for a invasion," Jerico moved around in the chair trying to get comfortable. "We've just now developed a electronic charge that should split their energy field in half. We're fairly certain that this test will let us dispense our extra troops right into the unknown lands," the doctor's voice was full of pride and satisfaction.

       Mister Rogen turned to reveille his face, it was oldish with dark black hair. His eyebrows were thick and his hair covered in hair gel. He walked next to the doctor, "What your doing right here doctor Jerico, is changing our world. We have a bright do ahead of use, if your scan was accurate the resources on this planet will full our robots for a long time...it may even help us wipe out those damned mech soldiers that have been a pain in my ass for far to long!" He had left the doctor's side and made his way to the large window to look out of it in anger. Ever sence that damn corp of military came up...his robots have had quite a difficult time killing them. The math heads had said that for every ten D.E.M.s that fought they could kill ONE of those mech soldiers. He at first thought little of this but after many losses he needed more supplies... and this new world was exactly what the needed. The only problem was getting there but now that is something they could over look now.

       "Umm...Mister Rogen sir, their is one thing I still don't understand? Why not destroy the mechs at their home base, one D\t-1000 and their taken care of. It's all over and we wouldn't even have to worry about them," Rogen walked around his table and lean on the front of it facing Jerico.

       "I already have a few....surprises in mind for them. I'm not worried about them because I have already dealt with them. One of our agents inside their compound have already placed charges all over their energy generators and reactors." As he finished Rogen put on a wicked grin, "They think they have the upper hand for the better part of three months, if I wanted them gone they'd BE gone! The only thing keeping them on this planet is the fact that I want to make them suffer... I want blood." Regon turned towards the window again, looking out of it. "Is it ready yet doctor? For a test run mean?"

         The doctor turned the back of his head, "yes but...there is still one problem, we don't have a significant amount of energy," he started rubbing his chin while thinking of possibly solution. Then it hit him like a punch to the face, "the mech base's reactors! They would serve a adequate amount of energy for us to use," the doctor looked at the face of Mister Regon which held a smile.

       "Yes, perfect... this will make them bleed THIS will make make them regret their thoughts to fight me!" He walked to the elevator waving the doctor to follow. "Prepare your self's Mechs," Regon turned as he entered the elevator and smiled wide. "For DEATH will be your only means of escape from my rage," Regon laughed as the elevator door closed.

In Equestria's capital Canterlot

               "Sister! Sister! The disturbance has happened again!" Luna screamed while running down the halls of Canterlot. She made a few turns till she found her way to Celestia's bed room door and knocked on it, jumping from left to right waiting for her sister to open the door. The door open to expose Celestia ruler of Equestria and riser of the sun.

             "Come in sisiter," Celestia moved to the side while Luna entered the room which was strongly sun related and bright even in the middle of Luna's night.

              "Sister we...have fealt another disturbing wave of energy from an unknown source," Luna looked to her sister hoping that now she'd take action, after this happening over the course of several weeks.

              Celestia smiled, "Sister I heard you coming from here. I may be old but I can still hear you when you scream in royal canterlot voice," Luna blushed from the embarrassment then cleared her throat.

             "Sister...we fear the unknown force is close to breaking through, what will we do sister?" Luna was scared mainly because she has see horrors unbelievable to most, has faced deamons along side her sister. Fought the god of chaos Discord, and felt the pain of being possessed by nightmare moon...but this new disturbing energy, was like nothing before. It felt like a cold claw that forced it's way up her spine, and made her and her sister feel a type of pain unknown to them both...fear.

           "Sister we still haven't pin pointed where this unknown force is even going to appear," Celestia walked over to her bed and offered Luna a seat which she accepted gracefully. "Lulu we must keep our heads in the upcoming endeavor... I can feel the disturbance as well but I try to hid this from our little ponies," she looked to Luna's eyes and said, "We must not make our little ponies worry about this...we both know what will happen," Celestia had a slightly sad expression on her face. Luna knew this very well their subjects are loving ponies there still...very quick to be scared of new things.

          Luna looked to Celestia, "sister what will happen if these unknown forces come to our kingdom and...hurt our little ponies," Luna had worry written on her face as she got up and walked to a window looking apon their subjects as they waked around Canterlot not knowing of the danger that was coming. Celestia moved to hug her sister with both her arms and wings, Luna accepted her sister's embrace. They stayed like that for a few minutes comforting each other before they let go and smiled to each other. "Tia...what ever comes through, WE will stop it...together," Luna smiled as her sister agreed with her before letting out a yawn.

         "I should get to bed, I'm not to stay up during the night," Celestia made her way under the covers of her bed and said goodnight to her Luna. Luna said goodnight as she left, still unsure of the dangerous situations to come.

Mech soldiers underground base

             Recon sat on the roof of the Fire Halos barracks, he was throwing a rubber ball against the wall of a neighboring barracks. As he did he was thinking on what the captain said...about them being a team and covering each other's back. He was so deep in thought that he didn't notice Tank walk up behind him making a slight metal cling as he waked. Tank sat next to Recon who finally noticed him as he was sitting down. For a while neither said anything. A long time of silence later Tank opened his mouth only to close it shortly after, rethinking he tried again with more success.

           "So....things got ah little heated yesterday," he rubbed the back of his neck. Recon looked like he wasn't listening but he was. "I shouldn't of said what I did-"

           "Yeah no shit." Recon turned away from Tank, anger taking his mind as he tried hard to ignore Tank but found it hard. Tank could only sit there, thinking about what he should say next. Then it came to him.

           "Look, I know you don't like me and I HATE you...but were stuck with each other. The captain said were a family and he's right. One of use alone is a force to be reckon with but together... We're a true super power. I don't very much care that you called me a monster, but I'll put it behind me. Now I don't think I need to be any bigger of a man then I already am now...do I?" Tank smiled or at least what he thought qualified as one, the gestured was forced but not in a bad way just Tank rarely smiled. Recon couldn't help but laugh a little at the fat joke Tank just made. He rised rised up and looked at Tank.

           "Sure...anymore more added to you and you'll fall right through the earth, fat ass," Recon smiled as Tank made a fake hurt gesture only to go back normal a few seconds later. Recon looked down and remembered what Boss had told them. "I always got your back, ok Tank?" Recon looked back up to Tank as they walked back into the barracks.

          "Sure I do...just like I got yours." Tank walked along side his brother. They entered the barracks and walked into Zak.

         "Hey guys what's up?" He was still wearing his exo, so he could get use to it. Tank and Recon looked at each other exchanging a silent conversation before they both said just talking about the next mission. Zak looked confused and asked what they ment.

        "Well according to the captain we got a mission over in some back water town. Nothing huge after all you are just a rookie we wouldn't want you to go and die on use the first day, right?" Recon said in his usual playful manner. Zak became nervous, so nervous it was painfully obvious to both Tank and Recon. "Hey don't worry rookie you'll do fine, just remember what Boss drilled into your brain back in training, ok?" Recon gave a assuring smile to Zak, which helped his nerves a little.

       "Yeah if you die, then you'll be no better then the last guy! Right?" Tank said in a happy tone, right before Zak collapsed from the thought of the last assult class. Recon punched Tank, while Tank just looked confused not knowing what he said.

        "Oh it's ok Recon I... I just gotta get use to you guys is all," Zak said while getting off the floor an smiled. They all made there way to the living room where Boss, Shadow and Laz where. Shadow was cleaning her sniper rifle and Boss was talking to Laz about the mission. The lights inside were going dim and then becoming bright again in rapid sucsesion, the three of them looked at each other in confusion when Zak looked back at Boss and Laz. They were standing over a hologram table that displayed what looked like the mech base, what with a long blue line leading to a huge open area. Then there were these...large red drill looking things moving towards it. Zak looked at both Tank and Recon to see a look of worry on their faces. All this did was start the growth of his own look of worry. They all waked over to the table while Boss was explaining something to Laz.

        "...I told you Laz I don't know what HQ is going to do about them, all they told me is to make sure you guys are ready for a fight," Boss looked pissed as he watched the drills move closer to the mech base.

        "Well all I know is that ever sence that little hiccup with the generators our powers been acting really shity," said Laz as he crossed his arms while looking at the holo table which was starting to get all flickery

         "What's going on?" Asked Tank.

         "Well...ya see Tank HQ found a reading of these drills and there not doing anything about it," said Laz while leaning back and pointing his finger at the hologram.

         "Shut it Laz!" Shouted Boss while glaring at Laz, a few moments later he sighed and then looked at Zak and the others. "Look the generators were sabotaged and now our turrets along with all our other automatic defenses, now we have a giant target on our base and where all that's left to defend this base," Boss had pointed out the generator's location on the hologram table.

         "Sooo, what your saying is....were gonna see some action? Hell yeah, lets do it!" Said Recon while pumping his fist in the air. Boss only shoke his head while pinching the bridge of his nose. Laz just smiled, Tank also pumped his fist in the air. Boss looked at all of them, before he cleared his throat to calm them down.

          "Look guys this is gonna be different then what we're use to. There are going to be hundreds maybe thousands of D.E.M.s coming from those drills....not just ten or twelve like we'd usually see. I don't doubt any of your skills sence I've worked with all off you for a long time, but Zak. I want you to be careful this is going to be dangerous even after your training with me," Boss had turned to Zak and looked at him.

         "It's ok Boss, I understand what you mean and I won't let you down," Zak had enthusiasm written on his face, Boss smiled genuinely glad that another young soldier was ready for battle. Shadow walked over to the holo table and noticed that the drills were getting very close. She stood on her tippy toes and poked his shoulder, he looked away from the conversation and then to where she was pointing.

        "Uhh...guys I think we hav- woah!" Tank feel to the ground as the drills finally reached the mech base. The drills rumbled and then made a huge wave like a earthquake of force shaking the base and everything inside it. Boss and the others slowly awoke, as they did they heard a ear shattering alarm. Calling all mech teams Calling all mech teams D.E.R.s have breached our base, I repeat D.E.R.s have breached our base all able bodied personal are advised to suit up, immediately! Tank grabbed onto a small dresser and started running for there suits. Zak looked to Boss who was getting his weapons ready.

        "Boss! What are we gonna do!" Zak was panicking and breathing fast, Boss noticed this and grabbed him by his exo.

        "Get a hold of yourself Zak, Zak!" Boss slapped him hard leaving a red mark on his cheek. "Your a soldier a mech bad ass! Now act like it! You're the only one with a exo suit, now you need to get out there and help the other men....now!" Boss let go of Zak and then ran off in the same direction as the others did. Zak stood there. Not sure what to do should he go out there or wait for them....No! You have your orders, now get out there and fight! Zak ran out the door only semi sure what he'll find on the other side of the door.
