(POV Malice)

It had been a few days since my defeat of Chitin and I actually managed to get a hold of his skull and it was now polished and sitting on a spike on top of my throne. My next plan was to figure out how to show the changelings Molotov was a friend.

“My king,” Chrysalis stated walking into the room and interrupting my thoughts.

“What is it?”

“Why did you give one of the drones a name and especially the red eyed drone.”

“Because I wanted to and because everyone should have a name.”

“But my king why her she is from another hive one that has been dead for at least a year.”

“Did you know that she has the ability to become a queen.”

“No no I didn’t.”

“Well she does and because of that she has the ability to restart her hive.”

“But there are no drones that would help her in this endeavor.”

“I have someone who can help.”

“Who?”

“His name is Molotov and he is a pony that has given up his loyalty to Celestia and because of this I allowed him to stay with us.”

“A PONY! Do you realize what he could do to us?”

“What I realize is that he is a sympathizer of your kind’s endeavor to find love.”

“What?”

“He says there are few like him but he is willing to help us.”

“How can you know for sure.”

“I made a lie detector and questioned him with that.”

“So this lie detector is flawless.”

“Yes it is.”

“I fully trust your judgement my king.”

“Good now I want to know how much love you have left.”

“Well unfortunately we only have about a month and a half.”

“Really?”

“It is true.”

“This is not good.”

“My king I know of a place where we can get an infinite amount of love.”

“Where?”

“The Crystal Empire has a magical artifact called the Crystal Heart that creates a shield to protect them in the frozen north.”

“Could we move this Crystal Heart.”

“Yes but it would be hard to get to the empire on foot.”

“How long would it take?”

“Over three weeks.”

“Damn it,” I said but just then I had an amazing idea. “Chrysalis I need you to get twelve of your strongest guards.”

“Why?”

“I have a plan.”

(POV Celestia)

The only magic powerful enough to defeat hate is love maybe we could take Rainbow Dash to the Crystal Empire.

“Luna?”

“Yes dear sister.”

“Do you think it would be a good idea to move Rainbow Dash to the Crystal Empire so that the love there could counter the hate?”

“It is worth a try but you should also bring along her friends.”

“That would be a good idea Luna.”

“Should I notify the guards of our upcoming departure.”

“Yes and I will write a letter to Cadence.”

(POV Malice)

I needed to act fast if I wanted this to work. First off I would need a vehicle and second I would need armor and weapons for the changelings that were going with me.

“Molotov.”

“Yeah boss.”

“I need your help.”

“What’s up?”

“We are going to the Crystal Empire and I need you to get ready.”

“Already am I had help from Magnus In upgrading myself.”

“Who?”

“The little talking machine that talks to me sometimes.”

“Oh you mean the nanites.”

“Yeah so that’s what he’s called.”

“But Magnus is a good name so I guess we’ll keep it.”

“Yes that sounds good to me.”

“Magnus.”

“Yes sir,” said a small nanite cloud.

“I need you to build me a vehicle.”

“What kind Malice.”

“You can see into my mind and you can also see the twelve sets of armor I want made.”

“I’ll get right to the fabricating of it.”

“Good how long will it take?”

“This is my first time creating a vehicle and armor other than yours so it shall take around three days to workout any and all system and mechanical problems.”

“Excellent.”

“Boss?”

“Yes Molotov.”

“What are we going to do.”

“We my friend are going to steal the Crystal Heart.”

“But it is in the Crystal Empire it will take us at least two weeks to get there and maybe more on the way back depending on if we are chased or not.”

“Yes but with my vehicle it should only take us about a day to get there and a day back.”

“What type of cart could do that.”

“It isn’t a cart it is called a Thunderhawk.”

“Thunderhawk?”

“It is from a board game that also turned into video games.”

“What’s the game called?”

“Warhammer 40K.”

“Interesting name.”

“Yeah but I’m sure Magnus could give you some info on it and also show you the armor he is building as long as you keep it a secret.”

“Ok thanks.”

“Magnus?”

“Yes.”

“Can you build me a table that shows an holographic map of what we have explored so far.”

“Yes I can."

“Good and also make five light armed drones to scout out a map of this island and the country of Equestria.”

“Already started.”

“Molotov I am going to need to alter your suits weapons.”

“Alter how?”

“I’m going to take away the Chain gun and give you something stronger but slower at firing but to make up for it I am giving you a third weapon on you right arm.”

“What kind of weapon?”

“It would be called a heavy bolter if it were alone but I put it as a duel heavy bolter cannon.”

“But what if I want my chain gun?”

“Well you could keep it but i’d have to install missile launchers or melta cannons on your shoulders.”

“I would like to keep my chain gun and the bolters and have these melta cannons you speak of.”

“Malice why not an auto cannon?”

“Melta cannons look cooler.”

“Fair enough and by the way I will also be accompanying you in your journey to the Empire.”

“Ha,” Molotov laughed. “You have no weapons at all.”

“Not yet but I am already building one.”

“What’s it going to look like.”

“You shall soon see.”

“Sure I will.”

“My king we have arrived as you asked,” a drone warrior stated as he barged through the door.”

“Shit.”

“My king look out there is a pony behind you,” He yelled as they all drew their swords.

“No no no no no. He is a friend he hates what Celestia is doing and says he will do anything to help prevent genocide.”

“If you say so my king.”

“Good now what we are going to do next is practice with your new weapons,” I said as I handed out small 9mm pistols.

“My king no offense but this would not be able to harm a pony.”

“It can and will harm one but the reason why you are getting the small ones first is to train you in how to handle a gun.”

“So that’s what this is some sort of musket.”

“yes it’s totally a mini musket but enough with the talking what we are doing now is training with our weapons so follow me. Molotov you come too so I can augment your suit with the bolters and meltas”

“Sure thing boss.”

I have a feeling that this is going to be a long day I thought as I walked through the small door that led to a shooting range I had dug out. It was connected to the main base through a large hallway with locking doors on each end.

(POV Celestia)

We had planned or trip to the empire to happen in two days and to stay for at least two weeks. We had decided to take the train because of teleporting maybe hurting her more and that you couldn't get the Crystal Empire by flying chariot.

“Luna are you sure you won’t come with us?”

“No sister one of us must stay here and seeing that the one injured is a friend of your former student you should go and support them.”

“Well thank you Luna.”

“You are welcome sister. Now go and get ready.”

“But we don’t leave for another two days.”

“I know how long it takes you to pack.”

“It doesn’t take that long.”

“Sister the main reason that you didn't go to help them stop Sombra is because it took you to long to pack.”

“Well they still did it without me.”

“Yes sister they did but this is one thing I will not let you miss.”

“Well agin thank you for doing this for me.”

“Ok now go pack.”

“Alright I am going Luna.”

(POV Twilight)

I’m happy I get to see Cadence and Shining again but I wish it was under better circumstances. Why did we have to do it why did we attack first.

“Twilight whats up,” asked my number one assistant Spike.

“Oh nothing Spike I’m just worried for Rainbow is all.”

“I’m sure everything will be alright especially since I’m coming,” he said pulling out a large suit case.

“Spike are you sure about this.”

“Yes I am if you don’t remember Rainbow is my friend too.”

“Fine then Spike you can go.”

“Wow I expected you to say that there was no way I was going and to think I stayed up all night planning on how to sneak onto a train.”

“What?”

“Nothing,” he said as he quickly ran upstairs.

Suddenly my door opened and in walked a white unicorn.

“Oh hi Rarity what are you doing here?”

“Nothing darling I just came to see if you need help packing.”

“Wait your already done.”

“Yes I am I have learned my lesson from last time and now I only have three bags.”

“Wow great job.”

“Thank you dear now do you need any help?”

“Yes I do need help.”

“Well go ahead tell me what you need.”

“I need you opinion on how many books I should bring.”

“Twilight the Empire has it’s own library you don’t need to bring books.”

“What is they don’t have one of my books?”

“You can take it next time because this trip is about Rainbow Dash not your books.”

“Your right Rarity I should only be packing my clothes.”

“Now that I can help you with.”

“Then let’s get started.”

(POV Malice)

They had finally done it they had figured out how to shoot a pistol.

“Great job everyone.”

“Thank you my king but do we get to test the bigger weapons now?”

“Yes you do and I’ve got three weapons you can choose from but remember that these are the weapons you will use in battle.”

“I understand my king and I believe the others do as well.”

“Good so go and pick a weapon while I help Molotov,” I said as I walked to where he was sitting.

“Molotov.”

“Oh hey boss what’s up?”

“I’m here to upgrade your suit for you.”

“That’s great boss but how are you going to do it?”

“Give me your right arm,” he did as he was told and stuck it out to my left side. “Now all I need to do is take off this large armor plate and put on the new one that has the bolters built into it.”

“How are you going to do that.”

“Like this.”

“Ow,” he yelled as I detached his forearm armor.

“That’s attached you know.”

“I helped Magnus design it of course I know it is attached.”

“Then why’d it hurt.”

“I forgot to activate the pain suppressors.”

“Pain suppressors?”

“They help stop the pain,” I said as I pulled out a new forearm plate with something attached to the top of it. “There we go all finished now to put it back on.”

“This won’t hurt will it.”

“It won’t hurt a bit,” I said placing the plate in it’s proper slot and twisting. “It will hurt a lot.”

“Ow.”

“It’s not that bad just think of it this way you didn’t have a musket ball go through your leg.”

“Wait musket ball through your leg?”

“Tell ya later but now it’s time for the melta cannons,” I said, pulling them out from behind me.

“How did you fit those behind your back.”

“Aw fuck physics you ponies do it why can’t I.”

“I don’t know but is this also going to hurt.”

“Probably, now come her and crouch down so I can install them.”

Molotov bent downwards towards me so that I could easily access his shoulder plates.

“Ow, why didn't you make this so it didn't hurt to upgrade.”

“Eh.”

“What’s eh supposed to mean.”

“Eh.”

“Damnit, OW,”

“There all done the melta cannons should be popping up on your HUD soon so I am just going to check on the soldiers.”

“Sure.”

“BOOM!”

“Hey I didn’t say you could fire that.”

“Sorry my king we just thought it looked cool and it definitely did.”

“RPGs are cool but also dangerous so only point them at the enemy got it.”

“Yes sir.”

“Ok so now you’ve all got your weapons…Hey what’s that in your hands?”

“Oh this sir it’s just another pistol I found here take a look at it,” he said while tossing me the pistol looking weapon.

“It’s a target locator.”

“Ah there it is, I've been looking every where for that.”

“Why?”

“To link it to the satellite that I am building.”

“Satellite?”

“The one to your left I'm quite surprised you didn’t notice it earlier.”

Looking to my left I saw a large tube about four feet in diameter and ten feet long. “Is that the booster?”

“No no no that is the main connector for the satellite.”

“Connector?”

“In the future I plan to add to it but first I have to get it up into the air.”

“Oh ok how is your body going.”

“Well if you hadn’t given me so many tasks then it may have been already done but noooooo you had to order all of it at once when I had just barely finished the fabricator so how do you think it’s going.”

“Great a sarcastic AI.”

“You got that right boss I almost thought he was a mare from all the complaining he does.”

“Ha,” I some what laughed until I was hit by a sheet of steel.

“What’s up with you Magnus.”

“It’s nothing MaLicE.”

“That doesn’t sound good.”

“No it doesn’t.”

“What’s really going on Magnus.”

“I shall tell you the truth Malice there seems to be a VVVVVVVVVVirus in my systems how this happened I don’t KKKKKKKKKnow.”

“Ok then what is the virus doing?”

“It is trying to take over OUR body but WE will try to stop or expel it.”

“Is the virus sentient.”

“I am no virus I am SO Malice to expel I must make it it’s own cloud or else it could wipe out all our systems.”

“Then do it already. Molotov go close and lock the doors so he can’t get out.”

“Yes sir.”

“Changelings help him.”

“Yes my king.”

“Sir it is working. AHHHHHHHHH,” there was a large metallic scream as Magnus and the virus split apart.

“What the hell happened Magnus?”

“It worked look to your right,” doing as the now stable AI said I looked and saw a black wraith like figure.

“Who are you?”

“I am Sombra.”

Author's Note

This thing won't let me put up images for some reason but the Changeling armor is fallout 4 power armor but I hope people will give me some tips on my grammar so that it looks cleaner.

Also tell me if I should bring Void back into the picture.

And another point that I almost forgot. Sombra's story shall later be reveal as to how he became an AI.
