[Declassified Imperial Mission File]

DESCRIPTION:

The Angel Class Sentinel Type Alpha is one of the few experimental sentinels created by the princess of the Harmonic Empire. Unfortunately for her she was BADLY damaged by a stolen angel and was being sent to the Capital to be repaired, she never made it. While on board a transport ship that was about to go through a jumpgate it was attacked at the worse time. As a result the ship get sent to Equestria for its contents to be discovered by the mane cast. New friends are made while new deadly (totally not kid friendly) enemies are made in the shadows. Many questions are to be answered while many more are to be found. Read on if you dare.

The Archive chapter will be updated when a new chapter releases that has information that the ordinary viewer cannot disciple through educated guesses. Also science.

[02] The Nuclear Option x10

Princess Celestia exits the hospital and stands before the chaos, gazing upon fire...fire was all the princess can see, and in the middle of that massive fire was a something she never thought she'd ever see, an alien starship from outer space. The ship lays in the middle of an open field just outside of Ponyville and next to the Everfree Forrest. The ship was not going fast enough to go vary far on the ground and so not much damage is done to the ground below, excluding the fire. Pegisi surround the ship with water buckets dumping them on the fire from above while unicorns use ice and water spells to keep the fire at bay. The fire glows brilliantly in the darkness of night, its orange glow luminites the area and spews up smoke that reaches far into the sky as it blocks out the moon.

A paper materializes in front of Celestia, the paper seems to be pure white and in much better condition than a typical scroll, as if it was created by a machine. She reads it. "...By my Sun..." she said in shock. Beyond worried the solar princess launches into the sky and flies straight to the ship in an attempt to see what her X student gotten herself into. Approaching the ship, she notices no indication on who it belongs to. She circles around it a few times and sees an opening at the top of the ship, she flies straight into it only to get comically smacked by the force field.

Back in the robotics lab the voice speaks once more. "Target life form has been detected attempting to enter the bridge."

"Princess Celestia!" said Twilight in relief. "Did she make it inside?"

"Negative, targ-" said the voice to be interrupted by what sounds like thunder sound coming from outside.

"Target is using deadly force, scanning threat level...threat level 6 initializing in deep scan...scan complete, mental status: worry, fear, anger. Target is incapable of breaking shields and haul, barrier of magic how do we proceed?" said the voice, as it talks an image of Celestia's insides appears on the monitors showing her current biological status. Twilight and the others were surprised that the voice knew about the Elements of Harmony.

"I want you guys to stay here." said Twilight in a determined voice.

"No way!" said Dash in protest.

"No! She's just worried about us, if I can get up there and talk to her maybe she'll calm down and help us." said Twilight to persuade her troubled friend.

"I must admit I've never seen her like this, but Twilight may have a point dear." said Rarity. Twilight nods and runs to the gravity lift, the door opens and lets her in.

"Take me to where Celestia is." said Twilight to the voice. In response however she is lifted up a few meters, the floor forms under her as she falls a few inches and runs forward into a large room. She stands upon a platform of hard light over a dark silver floor, the walls are black with gray lines connecting to the window at the other side of the room, the window itself seems to end about half way into the side walls however they appear to be made of the same material she is standing on now, hard light, but the windows appear to be much clearer and not blue. The platform she stands on grows thinner as it reaches the other side, at the end of the platform is a ring platform that inside the ring is a series of light gray rings with a blue glowing light in the center, Twilight notices the hard light window at the end of the room has a few red blinking lights. On the other side however Celestia is trying to break the shield with a laser coming from her horn.

"Is there a way I can contact her from here!?" said Twilight as she runs to the edge of the platform, but keeping away from the light gray rings in the center.

"The intercom can be used to to communicate to anyone on or around the ship, analysis indicates it will be heard with in a 12 mile radius of the ship at max power." said the voice to inform Twilight of the result of using it.

"Can you lower the power so that only she can hear it?" said Twilight as not wanting to scare everypony more than they already are.

"Affirmative, recalibrating...calibration complete." said the voice only trying to be helpful.

"I'm ready." said Twilight as she looks at the window in sorry.

"Activating in 3...2...1" said the voice, activating the intercom as it finishes.

"Princess Celestia! It's alright we're fine!" said Twilight with the intercom being head by Celestia on the outside.

She stopes firing and flies up to the window where she can see Twilight inside, she tries to say something but Twilight can't hear her from outside.

"Can you let her in from here?" asked Twilight in hopes that her long time friend can be eased of worry. As a response the hard light shield acting as a window vanishes to both of the mares surprise.

"Twilight...are you ok?" Said Celestia, as she flies to her, she looks back for a second to see the window is back, trapping her inside.

"I'm fine Princess, but why were you firing a laser at the ship?" asked Twilight out of curiosity of why her former mentor was taking such drastic measures.

"It's...I-I'm just happy your safe...do you know anything about whats going on here?" said Celestia as she calms down.

"No, but my friends are waiting for us below...we kinda have a situation." said Twilight as her tone changes to a nervous one.

"I trust your judgement...but are you sure its safe?" said Celestia as they both walk to the gravity lift.

"Well if we do nothing than Equestria will be destroyed, but I'm sure we'll get this done now that your here." said Twilight, relived that her X mentor is here

Celestia giggles "And you couldn't fix it yourself?"

"By the time I knew how dangerous it was, I was already inside the ship...and I doubt my books would help in this situation" said Twilight as she realizes theirs no way any of her books could have any information on dark energy cores, as the concept of dark energy itself is only been theorized by very few of Equestria's top minds, let alone make it into a power source.

"I see..." said Celestia as she understands what Twilight is trying to say. They enter the gravity lift.

"Take us to the robotics lab." said Twilight. as a result and to Celestia's surprise the floor under them disappears and both of them are slowly pulled down until a floor appears under them.

"Well...that was...new" said Celestia, noting the sense of weightlessness she just had coming down.

"I have a feeling we're gonna get a lot of that now." said Twilight as she enters the robotics lab. Celestia gasps at the sight of this new technology. She sees Twilight's friends all around the dismembered Angel in the center of the room, and notices the 8 wings spread out behind the frame thats holding her up.

"Wow" was all she could say, this breaks the silence and all the ponies look at her.

"Hey princess" said Dash casually.

"And hello to you as well girls...now...this thing needs our help?" said Celestia approaching the sentinel.

"Oh hay! Whats your name anyways Mr. Voice?" said Pinkie as she looks up at the ceiling.

"I am the automated system program S97 of the mining/military Hybrid Class Starship Sirus" said the "dumb" AI.

"I'll call you S!" said Pinkie cheerfully.

"Nick name accepted" replayed S.

"So your an AI?" asked Twilight.

"I do not have a personality matrix and have limited cognitive abilities, but yes." said S in response to her question

"How do you know what that thing is?" asked Dash in suspicion.

"I read a few sci fi books when I was in the human world." said Twilight proudly. Celestia looks at the holograms that display the core status.

"The information on these monitors show that the core needs to be replaced, but that raises 2 questions. What do we do with the old core and where can we find a new one?" Asked Celestia to S.

"Calculating method...method found. The Sirus has an empty battery that is used for emergency power. If the unstable dark energy core is put inside the battery the corrosive magic will destroy the core and the resulting fallout will recharge it." said S as a strange floating robot enters the room from seemed like a large vent in the wall. The gray floating robot is has a blue light in the center with 2 large arms folded next to that make a V shape as it approaches the ponies, its body is small and oval yet sharply angled. It floats near by ready to assist.

"And just who are YOU suppose to be!?" said Dash as she aggressively approaches the Worker Sentinel.

"A Worker Sentinel, these are used to work on given tasks commanded by a central intelligence, currently 1,000 are aboard the Sirus" said S in response.

"Is their another dark energy core we can use as a replacement?" asked Twilight the voice.

"All supplies needed for the repairs are on the ship but a life form with much precision in levitation magic is required to handle the core transfer." said S as two pedestals come out of the floor next to each other near the frame that holds the angel sentinel. One of them holds a dark energy core, it's a small ball object with a hexagonal frame that seems to be made of an ultra hard black material. In the center of it is a blue and violet sphere of light, surrounded by what looks like small tesla coils attached to the frame in a hexagonal pattern aimed at the sphere of light and rings that orbit the violet light, upon closer inspection it looks like a tiny galaxy is inside it as the light itself seems to bend around the entire sphere of light. Twilight approaches it to get a closer look but dares not to touch it. The other pedestal is similar than the other but no dark energy core is on it but looks like thats where she can put the other one.

"Wow...its so beautiful..." said Twilight as she stares at the core's brilliant technological complexity.

"Twilight...you should do it" said Celestia only to met by a few gasps.

"W-why me?" asked Twilight, surprised that Celestia even considered letting her do this.

"In my years I have grown adept to using arcane spells and mastered many advanced magics, but I'm not as..."updated" shall we say in the field of technology, I believe you are more qualified to replace the core." said Celestia, as she has much confidence that Twilight can do the core transfer.

"R-really?" was all Twilight could say at this massive compliment given to her by her former mentor.

"Just don't tell anyone, besides, I have confidence you can get this done." said Celestia as she smiles at her.

Twilight gulps and approaches the angel. "Can you remove the clothing and plating so we can begin?" she said noting the core needs to be inside of the patent.

"Affirmative" said S as the drenched medical gown disintegrates before Twilight's eyes, this reveals her chest. Between her breasts is a rather worrisome hole, a few sparks and a purple light can be seen inside of it. The light glows differently than the other core, it glows an unnatural deep violet and a few sparks of red light can be seen being given off by the hole.

"...Can you expose the core?" asked Twilight

One of the robotic arms that hang from the ceiling comes down and seems to be tipped with a low power laser. it fires a white hot beam of energy at the angel's shoulder and starts moving to the side cutting through the skin as it moves. The other elements leave the room at the thought of them being dissected. They find a door to a lounge and play with the holographic projector. Back in the robotics lab the skin on the front of the torso is fully removed along with the metallic undercoating. This exposes the angel's insides, a slander shaped chassis is seen. Inside the chassis is a large assortment of machinery. Many wires that are connected to small a frame that surrounds the unstable core, under them is an a spherical container sarounded by pipes and wires, Tubes and joints can be seen as well, just above the crotch area is a biological tube structure sarounded by sensors and other unidentified machinery that can be used for suggestive acts, it seems to be connected to a clear flexible container full of what looks like small strange wires that are connected to more machinery outside the container but seem to be lazily aiming towards the tube inside the container. Twilight notices the core is giving off an uncomfortable amount of heat.

"This feels a bit...unsettling..." said Celestia as she stands near Twilight as they both stare at the angel's insides.

"Y-yeah...n-now for the hard part..." said Twilight as she gets closer to inspect the unstable core. Being sure not to get too close to burn herself she notices the core itself has detached all wiring from the angel and even the frame that houses the core opens before her revealing the unstable core. Relived that she doesn't have to yank it out, she slowly pulls it out with her magic with ease. Twilight slowly walks over to the empty pedestal and sets it down, this whole process take about 30 seconds...but they were the longest 30 seconds of her life. The unstable core is sucked down the pedestal as it retracts into the floor vary fast, startling the princesses. Wiping the sweat from her forehead with her magic she slowly picks up the stable dark energy core and gently places it into the compartment where the previous core was originally. Twilight stumbles back due to a small but powerful airburst. The dark energy core glows brilliantly as powers up the angel, the internal damage seems to be fixing itself as the undercoating and skin regenerates before her eyes. The dismembered limbs reattach themselves to the body and regenerate completely with in seconds.

The angel's eyes open.

Author's Note

No she can't get pregnant in case you pervs were wondering, and no I'm NOT making this into a clop fic.

I have nothing against Luna...in fact one could say she is awesome.

REBOOT COMPLETE

My HUD activates, at the top of my vision is a compass with a bar that represents my over shield strength, it reads 100% next to it. At the bottom right side is the blue circle that is actually my KE tracker, it scans for kinetic energy signatures giving me very accurate awareness of my surroundings all within 100 meters. A small blue circle fallows my eye movements and changes size when i shift my focus from a single point, to an object or a group of objects. My eyes have a brilliant blue hue to them, as if your starring into the deep blue sky. "Thank you..." my voice is soft and gentle but yet slightly commanding, but it was all I could say to these kind life forms. I notice a few others enter the room, the all look at me in wonder, the blue one with the rainbow hair blushes as she stares at my chest. Realizing that the my medical gown had to be removed I must be naked I deactivate the repair protocol. The frame that is supporting my body releases me, I stand up fold up my wings, and materialize my high speed assault armor to prevent them from seeing my privates any longer.

A black armor piece covers my chest, under my C cup breast size chest piece is 2 small but powerful gravity jets to cancel out the drag generated by the breast size. The edge of the breast plate is lined with a dark gray color that seems to be giving off a vary faint blue light at the very edge that covers my body, this is super enhanced shielding that rests under the overshield that acts as additional protection over areas that show skin. The chest piece has a thin flexible cover that runs down my belly but still exposes my sides and reaches my lower body. A blue glowing line runs down it to touch the armored belt that holds up the skirt. The lower armor piece is gray with white lines on the edge of the piece. For additional protection and practicality the lower armor piece is sarounded by an array of gravity jets un the under sides of the plating arranged to look like a stylized war skirt and are all equipped with an energy blade emitter. The skirt reaches halfway down to my knees. My upper leg armor is black colored, blue lines that come down from the lower armor piece glow brilliantly. The knee caps are silver with armoured joints and have an energy emitter that can only create a hard light spike to penetrate targets. The lower leg armor is also black with glowing vertical blue lines that act as the overshield generators. The feet plating is black as well and is equipped with a low power energy blade emitter that can surprise targets with a hidden short dagger energy blade. On the bottom of the feet are countless tiny gravity jets. My arms are both equipped with black gauntlets that are equipped with Compact Rotating Gatling Guns (CRGG) that supply me with accurate long range automatic projectiles that can be set to different types via quantum converters, the guns have twelve 2 inch barrels. The custom CRGGs are built to fire 3 projectiles at a time from the under side of the hands so that my fingers don't get damaged while I fire more powerful energy projectiles from the energy emitter in my hands. The gauntlets extend to my hands as an ultra thin layer of protection, My palms are detailed with what the outside observer would say, look like a glowing circle that has blue lines that fallow my fingers, in reality they amplify my internal energy emitter in my hands by a factor of 10. On either side of my head is a small black cylinder that has a large spike that is about 6 inches long that points out backwards at a 45 degree angle protruding from the back of the cylinder. On the Cylinder's circled side is a small vent that points down, steam comes out of it for a moment as a maintenance check to release possible dust from my systems.

<<>>

"You look...simply GORGEOUS! You simply MUST tell me what you are wearing!" said the white pony with purple hair as she stares at me with sparkles in her eyes.

"High speed assault armor." I replied simply. The tall white alicorn approaches me.

"My name is Princess Celestia of Equestria, and who may you be?" said Celestia.

"I am the Angle Class Sentinel: Type Alpha, Serena" I say as I scan the life forms to get IDs on them.

"My name is Twilight Sparkle, this is Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash." said Twilight as she points to the ponies with the given names.

"Why are you here?" asked Twilight.

"I do not know." I say with no emotion, but a very small hint of sadness could be heard, no one seems to notice this.

"I see..." said Twilight as she trails off in thought.

"I can't even imagine how painful it was to have been to have your...limbs cut off...What did this to you?" said Celestia as she feels greatly concerned to what did this to me.

"I...do not wish to talk about that..." I said in a descending tone.

"I bet you can go really fast huh?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"I am currently equipped with medical wings...changing to standard wing set now..." I said as my wings fold back up only to fold into themselves in such a way that they all look like 8 long white spikes poking out of my back, they all slide into my back with a slicing sound. Eight black spikes slide out of my back and unfold revealing my standard high speed combat wings. The top 2 wings are cylinders seem to have a single ball joint in the middle of them implying they can fold inwards when not being used. The spikes themselves are covered with 4 glowing blue lines that stop at the ball joint, on the other side of the ball joint is what looks like 2 massive bayonetted cannons, they are experimental neutrino cannons. The barrels on them are 4 feet long with the base of them a larger cylinder that are about half the size of a wooden barrel that is covered with what looks like tiny vents. The 2 wing sets under the canons are identical. They are both very thin black diamond shaped. On each wing is a blue glowing diamond shape in the center in the center of this diamond is a small blue glowing light, the diamond in the center of the wings's surface is 2 more diamonds that line up with the long side of the wings structure, next to them is an array of smaller diamonds arranged in a geometric pattern. The bottom wing set seems to be folded up as it is too long to be fully deployed as I stand, they don't seem to notice much detail on them other than they appear to have a longer diamond shape with a glowing diamond shape on its surface. At the base of each wing appears to be a set of small guns about the size of the barrel of a pistol but they seem to be on joints as well and they certainly don't look like any normal laser weapon, they have a frame like structure sarounded by rings that cover the interior of the weapon, at the tip of each weapon is a quartz crystal, They are in fact high powered homing lasers. Rainbow Dash's jaw drops as she stares in awe at my wings.

"My top speed has been calculated to be approximately 74 million miles per hour, though safety protocol dictates that while I am on a planet with life on it I cannot go faster than 100,000 miles per hour to prevent damage to the atmospheric wind currents depending on the planet's size."

"N-no...that's impossible! their's NO way you can go that fast!" said Rainbow out of rage.

"it is only an estimation, in my relatively short operational life I have only gone 7,604 miles per hour." I replied to the enraged pony.

"How about we have a race and find out!?"

"Now is hardly the time for that Dash, now would you please calm down darling?" said Rarity trying to calm her friend as their are more pressing matters to attend too.

"Ugh, fine, but we're having a race some time soon." said Dash trying to get the last laugh.

"You look as though you were built for combat, am I correct?" asked Celestia, noticing the CRGGs on my arms.

"I am designed for long range aerial and space combat, most of my weapons have not been tested, but I do not desire to test them on your subjects." I explained, not wanting to hurt anyone.

"Thank you for your concern, I'm sure it was not your intension to come here as well." she said as she raises an eye brow.

"No, but I should be the one thanking you, you are the reason why I'm alive right now your highness." noticing the crown I get down on one leg and kneel to her to show my respect. The princess looks at me with a smile on her face.

"Oh theirs no need for that, we only did what we felt was right...but I'm sure you have many questions." said the princess as I stand once more.

"A few yes, but I'm sure you have many more, though not all shell be answered as some answers may be classified." I said noticing that some of my historical data is corrupted but my technical data possess massive amounts of classified information.

"That seems reasonable, but I think its best we continue this conversation in Twilight's castle." Said Celestia. Twilight walks over to me and smiles.

"We could introduce you to the town, I'm sure Pinkie would love through you a welcome party." said Twilight. The pink pony in question gasps and runs over to me, thinking that this behavior could be hostile I jump back faster than she could react with a push on the jets in my wings. She trips and falls as she was expecting to hug me.

"OHF...I guess you don't like surprises huh?" she said as she slowly gets up and approaches me much slower this time.

"S-sorry...its just I've never been shown this level of hospitality before, and I've never actually been to a party either." I say still with no emotion but I feel a spark of sadness in the back of my mind. Pinkie looks at me in a very sad expression.

"Never...had a party...oh you poor thing...we need to fix that, and soon!" she said as she has a determined expression in her voice. With that we all leave the robotics lab and go to the cargo bay. The cargo bay is located in the bottom of the ship just above the ore storage room. Inside is a large assortment of crates full of different types of missiles and ammunition. We come across vehicles that originated from the human home world. Some of them are exotic cars, others are military some are RVs and even a few military jets from the mid 2000s. We approach a rather large door in the wall. I wirelessly open it to the outside, a few fires can be seen as well as dirt and rock that was ripped out of place by the crash, ponies can be seen floating in the air all gazing at me and the ponies next to me.

"Remain calm ponies! This visiter is not our enemy! But our newest ally!" said Celestia in a commanding tone to keep the ponies at ease. They all look at me with fear and curiosity at me and my allied life form companions leave the crash and walk by them. I fold up my wings at to not seem as intimidating and knowing they should only be flared when in combat. The neutrino cannons fold up with the joints folding down to be parallel form each other, the cannons point down to the ground. We all head to a large crystal tree, the top of it seems to resemble an artistic star, but structural damage is detected on the top, it is clearly in prices as shards of crystal both big and small can be seen scattered in the direction where the Sirus is. Once we leave the door closes behind us.

"Oh my did the Sirus crash into your castle?" asked Rarity noticing the damage.

"Well I was in the middle of sleeping but the crash woke me up." said Twilight.

"Talk about a rude awakening." said Rarity in response.

"Why not eye candy?" replied Pinkie as she references an abridged series, no one gets the reference. The rest of the walk to the castle wasn't vary eventful other than ponies just starring at me with mixed reactions. Once inside we all enter a large room made of crystal with a table and a map in the center with what looks like tree roots decorated with ornaments hanging from the ceiling. Two new life forms enter the room, one resembles a baby dragon and the other is a unicorn like Rarity. I detect a distortion the the fabric of space time in this room.

"Cosmic distortion detected, initializing in deep scan..." my scans indicate that the new pony, the dragon and Twilight have all traveled through time. Mental scans of the new pony indicate she has attempted to alter history with selfish intentions, a major violation in the time travel laws. My eyes turn blood red as I activate my targeting system, I do not flare my wings or deploy any weapons, I turn my head to Twilight.

"You have a lot of explaining to do time traveller." I say to Twilight, she looks at me with slight surprise.

"W-what do you mean?" she said nervously, I squint my eyes slightly at her in suspicion, but the baby dragon interrupted this, at that moment I turn back to the target.

"Woah, is that the alien from the space ship!?" it said, the gender of the dragon is most likely male. Celestia notices my change in eye color and decides to introduce the them.

"Serena, this is Spike, he is Twilight's assistant, and that is Starlight Glimmer, she is Twilight's student." explained the princess of the sun. Starlight notices I'm looking at her, and sees my eyes, she feels a sense of fear, like she should run, now.

"H-heeey...you..." said Starlight, too scared to make a sudden move, smart. I walk over to the table as the ponies sit in chairs that have the same symbols on them as their tattoos. I do not take my eyes off Starlight as all my homing lasers are locked on and ready to fire on her standing on the other side of the room in a doorway.

"My scans indicate you have committed crimes against the fabric of reality, how do you plead?" I say with no emotion as I am not able to do so. Every one is surprised at my statement, all except the time travelers in question.

"W-what do you mean? I'm not evil." Starlight said in her defense.

Twilight realizes that I must be preparing to kill her and says quickly "She used a magic scroll to travel through time! its gone now! And everything want back the way it was!" she blurted out. Rainbow Dash takes note of the situation and hovers near me, ready to make an attempt to stop me if I go through with the action, it would be futile.

"Do you still have the power to travel through time?" I asked as the others start to look worried.

"No...the scroll gave us that power and we lost it...it was sucked into oblivion." said Starlight in hopes that nothing bad will happen.

"...If I detect a slight change in the amount of chronon particles that surround you, I will kill you swiftly." I say as my eyes return blue and deactivate my targeting system. I hear a few sighs of relief behind me.

"W-well I guess its good we don't have the scroll than right?" asked Twilight me nervously.

"If you did than I would have detected it by now and would have destroyed it, along with Starlight...I do not wish to harm others if others will feel sad...but I must fallow protocol...." I say in a more calm tone that silently descends into sadness.

"I hope so as well...I don't want to fight you..." said Celestia in a reliving tone. Spike sits down in a smaller chair next to Twilight, Starlight stands by Rainbow Dash as she gets back in her chair as well.

"Well! Now that the whole death threat thing is over why don't we begin?" said Pinkie trying to get every pony off the subject of death.

"Agreed, now...Serena...could you tell us about where your from?" asked Twilight.

"I was created in a starship called the Island of Solitude by a...error...m-my historical data seems to be corrupted..." I said trying to recall the data from my database.

"Corrupted? What do you mean by that?" asked Rarity.

"I am an artificial intelligence, and as such I am run on a complex microscopic computer system, the components that make up my system need to be small so their can be more room inside my head for processing power, some of my data seemed to have been deleted by an unknown force." I explain.

"Tell us more about what happened to you, I understand if you don't want to tell us." said Celestia.

I try recall what happened to me, but to no avail. "That data seems to be corrupted as well." I say to the ponies.

"Alright, than what CAN you tell us?" said Dash impatiently.

"How long are the years and days on this planet?" I ask only to met with a few questioning looks.

"24 hour long days and 365 day long years with the occasional leap year." said Celestia.

"I was built for high speed long range combat in air and space over 902 centillion years ago. Not long after I was built I was put into hyper stasis until what I imagine was a week ago. The data depicting the reasoning behind this is corrupted. I was woken up to be updated with the current weapon's technology and then be tested. I never completed the weapon testing. That is when my memory becomes corrupted so I do not know why I never completed it...only that their was...s-so much death involved...n-not by me b-but by something else...s-something like me...but not me..." I say as my voice changes from soft to slightly disturbed. For the first time in my life I make a facial expression as I look down, it was horror...complete and utter horror, and yet I do not know why. An eire silence fills the room as the ponies that surround me can't even imagine what may have happened at the weapons testing facility.

"I'm...so sorry for your loss..." said Celestia. I look up and snap back to reality.

"Y-yes, thank you mam." I say as I recollect myself.

"N-now I suppose we should talk about your stay here, do you plan on leaving this planet?" asked Twilight.

"The Sirus is not equipped with a multiversal positioning system and the warp drive is heavily damaged. If I were to attempt to find my allies, it would be futile." I say to them.

"What will you do now?" asked Celestia.

"Stay here to commence weapons research along with help defend against logical threats to life forms until the Sun exhausts all of its hydrogen fuel and dies. After that I suppose I could wander the stars." I say as I mark the objectives in my directives.

"Wait...until the sun dies...what do you mean?" asked Rainbow concerned for Celestia's wellbeing, along with everyone else including Celestia herself.

"On my way here I told the Sirus to scan the Sun, it is a middle aged, average mass star. Age: 4.6 billion. Mass: 1.989 × 10^30 kilograms. Radius: 432,288 miles. Stars are powered by the element of hydrogen and are mostly composed of that element, at a star's core a process called nuclear fusion takes place, in which atoms collide to form heavier elements such as helium. Eventually the sun will run out of fuel and turn into a red giant, this will increase its size many times as the core slowly destabilizes, after some time the sun will than slowly fade away until only the core remains, at this stage the star can be referred to as a small white dwarf star typically the size of the planet Venus." I say as I explain how this type of star works, only to get a confused reactions by everyone except for Celestia, Twilight, and Starlight who listen to every word, with Pinkie just smiling.

"How...long do I have?" said Celestia, strange how she would say that about herself when she is not the Sun.

"You are not the Sun, but the Sun will cause this planet to be uninhabitable in 2 billion years and will fade away into a white dwarf in 4." I say to answer her question, earning a few sighs of relief.

"So...you plan on building weapon technology? Why?" Asked Starlight in concern.

"The Sirus stores enough ammunition to wipe out all life on the plant many times over but I do not have many ways to defend the ship other than myself, So I will need to build a fortress around my ship as well as a landing platform inside it for future space missions as well as defending the technology within, if the weapons on board fell into the wrong hands the results would be catastrophic, so I need to build defenses to kill targets who are a threat to the scientific research and machines within and for the foreseeable future." I say earning a few worried expressions.

"We may need to call a meeting of the nations about this...given your presence here this could cause mistrust in other countries if we do not publicly announce your existence, and given you ship's size we may need to ask help from other nations to build your fortress. Our planet is not ready to use the weapons you have access too so I don't want to ask my scientists how they work." said Celestia coming up with a plan for the near future. Twilight feels saddened as she will not get the chance to find out how this new technology works, but she perks up as she comes up with an idea.

"Can you give us technical data about the the technology that aren't weapons?" asked Twilight hopefully.

"Yes." I say as I see no harm in teaching these ponies how radio waves work, along with clean and efficient energies.

"Than its settled than. I'll arrange the meeting and contact you when I get more information, I'll send in a squad of guards to defend your ship until you can get defenses up. For now I think you should take a look around Ponyville. It should be mourning soon, I need to get back to Canterlot, theirs much to be done." and with that said Princess Celestia left, leaving me with these ponies. One by one however they all left to return home, soon it was only me, Twilight and Starlight, I notice the sunlight is creeping in through the windows, lighting up the dim room a bit more. I walk towards the exit.

"Hay wait up!" yelled Twilight as I see her and Starlight walk up next to me.

"Are you going back to your ship?" asked Starlight.

"Yes, I need to do a parameter sweep of the area to make sure no one is attempting to enter before Princess Celestia's guards show up." I say.

"Oh I'm sure their already there by now, why don't we go and have breakfast first?" suggested Twilight.

"I think it would be in our best interest if I did a proximity sweep just to be safe Twilight." I say as I open the doors. My wings spring up with a "pring!" my neutrino cannons are still pointed down as to provide less drag and additional thrust if I require it. Every one around me hears a humming sound that seems to be combined with the sound of a jet engine and an electric engine, My wings, skirt, and feet light up and I take off into the air faster than they expected, a sonic boom is heard...but to my surprise I detect a strange but colorful energy build up around me as I pick up speed going straight up.

The sonic rainboom...ever wonder how it work? Well...things are about to get...rainbow-rific!

[06] Show and Kill

Cheerliee notices her students "Serena, how would you like to tell my class about yourself?" she asked as a few students look at me with awe.

"This could prove educational, yes I would like that." I said in reply to her suggestion as I stand back up.

"Alight class! This is Serena, she'll be telling us about herself for class today! And judging by her size we'll be having class outside today." said Cheerliee, noticing that her full hight only goes up to my waist. I wait silently for Cheerliee to address the class once more, when all the students are here. "Today we have an alien from outer space to talk with us today." she said.

"Hello." I say as I slowly unfold my wings, revealing them to the class only to receive a few "oos" and "awes".

"Thats so cool! I bet Rainbow Dash would love to race you!" said an orange filly with pink hair and small wings.

"She has already challenged me to do so." I said as I recall what her reaction to me when I equipped my standard wing set.

"Now now Scootaloo, rase your hoof before asking questions, why don't you tell us about yourself?" Said Cheerliee as she turns to me.

"I am the Angel class Sentinel Type Alpha, Serena. I am built for long range combat and equipped with a large variety of weapons that can eliminate targets at a long distance at high speeds, as well as a highly advanced targeting system that helps me lock on to targets while at high speeds. I can also reach speeds past 1 million miles per hour." I say calmly as I see mixed reactions from the class, Scootaloo's eyes go wide as she examines every detail of my large wings. A pink pony with a tiara raises her hoof.

"Yes Diamond Tiara?" asked Cheerliee.

"Are you here to invade?" she asked.

"I have no desire for a hostile take over." I say to receive a few sighs of relief. Another pony raises their hoof.

"Were you that one that made that storm over the crash site earlier?" asked a yellow pony with red hair and a huge bow.

"Yes, my objective was to secure the area around my ship to prevent thieves from stealing the large collection of weapons and technology in the starship Sirus. I launched myself from Princess Twilight's front door after meeting with Princess Celestia. After I reached a speed of exactly 10,000 miles per hour I performed a previously unknown event called a sonic rainboom, this doubled my speed to 20,000 miles per hour, I soon left the atmosphere as it was difficult to slow down out of that sudden bust of acceleration. I did not complete my objective so I returned to the planet, I noticed that the sonic rainboom shockwave was still expanding outwards so I flew into it to gather more data. My speed was doubled once more to 40,000 miles per hour as another shockwave left the epicenter of the sonic rainboom. Using my speed I flew in a circular pattern above my ship to create a controlled windstorm. I than used the storm and my weapon systems to kill 7 enemy targets and a large wolf made of wood." I explained to the class getting looks of awe and wonder.

"That's so AWESOME!" screamed Scootaloo. Cheerliee just looked at me with look of worry.

"And...just what were the targets?" she asked with concern.

"7 miniatures wearing steel armor, scans indicate they have been through a large amount of fights with authority." I said to the teacher to get a small sigh of relief.

"W-well was their anything else you wish to say?" asked Cheerliee nervously, My KE tracker picks up that life form that attempted to kill me earlier, I activate my targeting system, my eyes turn blood red as I attempt to locate her.

"A life form that is exclusively hostile towards me has been detected, caution is greatly advised." when I finish that sentence I start to hover over the class. My sights are locked on to the blue pony from before, she notices me, this time however she has an expression of surprise, not rage. I aim both neutrino cannons at her, as well as point my CRGGs at her and even target her with my homing lasers, but I do not fire, I simply say "You have been shown to be hostile towards me, identify yourself and your intensions or you will be terminated."

"I am Princess Luna, and you have my most sincerest apologies Serena for my rash behavior from earlier." said Luna as her expression changes to determined. My scans indicate she is not lying, but their is doubt in her words, as if she does not believe them, I lower my weapons but keep my targeting system on.

"You have been warned." I say simply, but before she replies I launch myself into the air and soon perform another sonic rainboom 1000 feet off the ground.

======

"Oh come on! Now your just showing off!" yelled Rainbow Dash to no one in particular as she sits atop a cloud in pure jealousy.

======

I leave the atmosphere, my wings become more responsive to my commands seeing that I am more effective at combat in space. My scanning array also increases in distance as my systems automatically go into space mode. I look down at the planet below.

(Art by Antifan-real)

My scans show the galaxy seems to be stationary, as if its not moving relative to this galaxy, I may need to create a highly advanced observatory to gather more data on this remarkable astronomical phenomenon. I fly to an area 3000 miles above the Moon, seeing that this is the perfect opportunity to test out the neutrino cannons with no negative outcomes, I aim both of them and aim one of them inside an area with no features. I charge up one of the cannons for 30 seconds, as is charges so many atoms collide with the vents that I can actually hear a sound of very high winds combined with thunder in a vacuum, these cannons may be more powerful than originally thought to be. I release the particles...a very bright beam of white, dark violet...and pure black light leaves the barrel? The beam hits the surface of the moon...and an explosion bright enough to turn the blackest of nights to the brightest of days and as large as a colossal mountain...the shockwave created by the explosion sends dust flying into space, the shockwave continues going and dissipates completely around 70 miles away from the explosion itself. After the explosion dissipates a crater 8 miles in radius and 39 miles deep is seen. I am sent back a few feet at the release of the energy.

After I scan the damage I ready the other cannon and aim them at another wasteland, and charge both cannons for 30 seconds, I release both beams at the same time, they impact on the same area, the explosion is 5 times as bright and as the beams merge into one upon closer to the impact site the damage is...cataclysmic. The explosion itself was effectively 5 times the size of the previous test, giving off a shockwave that circled the entire moon, sending dust everywhere and flattening everything near the impact site, what was left of the once flat wasteland is now a crater that is 40 miles in radius and 195 miles deep. The crater itself is sarounded by cracks that stretch out from the crater about 400 miles. My scans pick up moon rocks that get caught in the planet's gravity and start to fall towards it, seeing that my cannons are still at 100% operational capacity I chase after them and fire neutrino beams at them, each with 1 second charge times. It takes a few shots to destroy each rock but to the planet below this could have looked like a meteor shower, however I must inform the princesses of this new data...I may need to find a different testing ground for the neutrino cannons to prevent further damage to the Moon. I reenter the atmosphere leaving a trail of fire behind me along with a sonic rainboom, I fly over a vast sea, I have the coordinates of the Sirus so I can find my way back to Ponyville.

======
Just after Serena left

Luna was left standing in front of the class, she looks up at the sky in sorrow.

"Are you ok Princess?" asked Cheerliee.

"Yes...I met her at dawn...I thought she was a demon...and yet I was the one acting foolish...sorry for the intrusion, I...need to go. Farewell." said Luna, leaving the class outside full of questions. She flies to the crash site however when she was almost there, she senses something is very wrong with her moon. "What...was that...agh!" she begins to feel a small trickle of pain in the back of her mind.

"Target identified as Princess Luna, warning a magical disturbance has been detected." said S from the sentinels that watch Luna wince in pain as she looks at the sentinels and the ship before her.

"Princess, are you alright!?" asked one of the guards with concern.

"Yes...something just feels...wrong..." said Luna as she looks up at the sky with worry.

======

Back to Serena

I see shore on the horizon, I pick up speed to 11,000 MPH and fly over a large city reminiscent to New York. I shortly make it back to Ponyville. I slow down to a complete stop in a matter of seconds over a large apple orchard.

"Howdy!" yelled Applejack from below, I see her standing at the entrance of her house and land in front of her.

"Hello." I greet her.

"Now brings you here? Are ya hungry?" asked Applejack.

"I am curious to taste what you have to offer, but I do not know the currency." I say noting that in order to buy food you need money.

"Naw its on the house! We here at Sweet Apple Acres have the best apples in Equestria after all." said the apple farmer proudly.

"I appreciate your generosity." I say to Applejack.

"Of corse, what are friends for?" said Applejack as we walk inside her house, I bent down through the doorway.

"We got some left over apple fritters from this mornin, would you like to try one?" she asked me.

"Alright." I say calmly. Applejack goes into the kitchen, I fallow and find a table, seeing that the chairs are too small I sit on the floor by the table and wait patently for Applejack.

"Here ya go." she said as she gives me a plate with 3 apple fritters on it. I try one, they taste sweet and tender.

"What do ya think?" she asked curious to see how me, an angel sentinel would think of her fritters.

"They taste nice." I say in response to her question.

"Heh, well I've got years of practice...hey won’t that get all over those whats its inside of ya?" she asked as she realizes her possible mistake.

"I am built with a digestive system, though I do not create waist, the mass of the food is converted into energy to be stored in a compact battery." I say as i simplify the details for her.

"Oh...well ah need to go do some chores now, ah hope ya have a nice day now." said Applejack, not knowing how to reply to that. A few minutes pass and I finish the fritters, I clean the dish with soap and water and leave it on the counter, after that I leave the house. I walk through Ponyville, and scan my surroundings...an unknown energy signature is coming up behind me fast, I activate my targeting system.

[07] The Ultimate Party Crasher

I stand in the middle of a residential area, Ponies are going to work and give me strange looks. An unknown energy signature is coming up to me from behind fast, I activate my targeting system, and dodge to the left swiftly with a simply thrust of my wings, I face the possible foe...and its Pinkie Pie.

"Hi Serena! I just wanted to tell you I have great party planned for you today at your ship at 5:00 PM!" said Pinkie with a cheerful smile, I deactivate my targeting system.

"I highly advise you do not do that again, what time is it now?" I ask her after the second warning.

"I'll try, oh and it's exactly the 32nd second of 37th minute of the 8th hour of the day!" and with that she left in a pink blur.

"Time set." I set the time to 8:37 AM. I continue to walk around Ponyville for the remainder of the day, ponies see me and continue to give me surprised looks. I did not get social contact with any ponies.

======

During this time

Back at the crash site Luna regains her composure as the pain in her head subsides. "T-tell me robot...who is your master?" she asked to the worker sentinel that floats in front of her.

"That information is classified, but my current superior intelligence commander is Serena, according to protocol I must fallow her orders." said S from one of the sentinels.

"Thats the AI system of the the ship, we call him S." said Shining Armor as he comes into Luna's view.

"...And this AI...it controls these...things?" Asked Luna.

"I don't know how they work but S says that he controls the worker sentinels, their helping us build the temporary wall so I see no harm in letting them help us guard the ship." said Shining Armor. Luna notices a collection of trees and logs being placed around the ship.

"I see...S where is Serena now?" asked Luna.

"She is currently reentering the atmosphere" said S.

The gears start turning in Luna's head, she launches herself from the ground to fly up into the highest reaches of the atmosphere in a matter of minutes, she struggles to control her flight path as the air is too thin to control with precision. She gets a good look of her Moon, the once flat and peaceful Sea of Tranquility has a new crater in it. But that pales into comparison on what she sees in the Ocean of Storms, a large dark crater is seen with long deep cracks, similar to the crater of Tycho but more defined with much deeper, the crater itself is so deep Luna can't see the bottom as it appears to be a dark cave with a large shadow, and will slowly cave in over time due to the weak gravity. Luna notices a small dusty ring is starting to form at the Moon's equator.

(Here's a map for reference)

"With such power...she could have easily killed me...yet she did not..." Said Luna in a hardly recognizable voice due to the low amount of air around her to carry sound waves. Earlier S said that Serena was reentering the atmosphere, and the last time she saw her was her launching herself into the sky. "But to do this to MY Moon! This act is UNFORGIVABLE!" said Luna as her eyes glow white with magical power. "YOU DARE DESECRATE MY MOON! I WILL SHOW YOU WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DISRESPECT THE NIGHT!" and with that said, Luna flies back down to Ponyville.

======

Back to Serena

I walk towards the Sirus to see most of Ponyville in the cargo bay, they all greet me with cheers, a large banner is hung from the open door, it reads "Welcome to Ponyville" strange how they actually managed to get a banner large enough to be hung over a door the size of a football field. Inside is the party itself, with makeshift tables made from crates covered with table cloths toped with sweets. "WELCOME TO PONYVILLE SERENA!" they all cheered to me with gleeful expressions of happiness, I activate my targeting system and fire homing lasers off into the sky and set them to explode in mid air, creating a colorful display of powerful energy blasts. I deactivate them, fly into the cargo bay and and greet the party guests, I'm not really much for partying. After a few minutes of partying however the Sirus picks up Luna fling towards the ship at alarming speeds.

"Warning, Princess Luna has entered Ponyville airspace, magic build up detected, caution is advised." said S from the intercom loud enough to be heard by everypony in the party. Luna lands with a small impact crater, sending dust everywhere around her, she looks up from the crater with rage in her eyes, but this time its much more intense than before, the once midnight blue fur is replaced with pitch black, her eyes are nightmarish as they glow white, black and even green.

"HOW DARE YOU DAMAGE MY MOON! YOU WILL PAY DEARLY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DEVIOUSLY DONE!" yelled the princess of the night as attempts to enter the cargo bay to hit me, I lunge at her with a mace being generated by my energy emitters in my hands, I push her back and throw her off in the distance, she recovers shortly, I exit the cargo bay and activate my targeting system.

"S, close the cargo bay doors, and keep the ponies safe!" I said, the doors close but not before 6 ponies exit, they are the 6 ponies from before.

"Luna! what are you doing!?" yelled Twilight in concern, I detect a spike in energy in all six ponies, but I keep my sights on Luna.

"That WITCH blew holes in my Moon! AND SHE WILL DIE FOR HER ACTIONS!" Yelled Luna as she fires a beam of unknown energy at me, scans read that this could possibly be a threat to me, I start to circle Luna at an increasing speed, I stop accelerating at 9,500 MPH and fire homing lasers at Luna with 50% power set to plasma. Luna attempts to block the beams with a force field but she realizes that her barriers can't resist them after a few hits, so she flies up to try and get some distance from me, I fallow her and continue to circle her and fire beams at her, she tries to dodge by taking sharp turns and change her direction, but I keep on her, she stops and releases a massive shockwave of energy, this sends me back a few feet but I fly right at her to hit her with my fists.

"If you continue your hostile intent towards me I will not hold back any of my abilities to kill you as you are now a danger to society." I lie knowing that I do not need to use my trump card.

"It will be a cold day in Hell before I consider you a friend of mine." said Luna as she spits out a bloody tooth.

"Hmmmm...thanks for the idea, I'll keep that in mind, but you might come down with a sudden case of freezer burn first." as soon as I finish that sentence I aim both arms at her and fire several large wads of napalm at Luna from the CRGGs, it sticks to her fur as she struggles to fly in place before she could fly away, I fire a single beam of energy at her from my wings, she bursts into vary bright yellow and white flames that stick to her body, she screams in pain as she is burning alive. I wait for about 10 seconds, I fly above her and set my CRGGs to freeze at max power, I fire a single beam that hits Luna. Luna is encased in a large chunk of ice and falls to the ground below, when she hits the ground the ice shatters leaving Luna with open burn wounds and yet she is burning up in some areas while freezing in others. I land with a thud next to her.

"I am only your enemy if you are hostile to me, have I fired my neutrino cannons at you even at 10% charge you would have died swiftly, I highly advise you leave before you do anything else that is highly ignorant when you fully recover...I expect you to let your scars be a reminder not to threaten me." I say to her as I look down upon her swollen bloody face as my tone changes from commanding to dark. The look in her eyes are one of pain, regret, and sorrow. The 6 ponies only look at me in horror at what I have done. I...start to feel sad. I don't even notice a single tear fall from my eye. Their is only a deathly silence that fills evening the air for the next 37 seconds, the sky is dim from a long day as the sun has already set but the sky is still lit in the the evening twilight. After this however only Twilight is brave enough to approach me.

"Why?" she asked as tears start to form in her unreasonably large eyes.

"This was the second time she tried this...but...this time...something was wrong with her..." I reply.

"I'll take her to the hospital!" yelled Dash as she genteelly picks up Luna and carries her to the hospital once more.

"I'm...so sorry...I....didn't want to half to do that...but I needed to incapacitate her before she could do that to me." I say as I turn to face Twilight.

"But you let her hit you with her magic before...what was so different this time?" asked Twilight as she slightly recollects herself.

"Her power was dark and twisted...and many times more powerful than her base form, if I gave her the chance she could have done the same to me if I wasn't fast enough. And yet...I could see tears of sadness in her eyes earlier." I say as I look as the center of the pile of ice shards where Luna was laying earlier.

"I...don't know what to say...if what you say is true than you actions are justifiable...but why would Luna attack you with such power?" asked Twilight as she realizes Luna's out of character behavior.

"She said that I desecrated her Moon, earlier today I tested out my neutrino cannons at full power on the moon to prevent the loss of life, but knowing I created a small ring system around the Moon and two very deep craters I may need to use the planet Mercury instead of the Moon. What is the connection between the Moon and Princess Luna?" I ask as I deploy my cannons and aim them down to show Twilight what they are. Twilight's friends walk up to me slowly.

"Luna is the princess of the night, she rises and lowers the Moon every night." explained Twilight.

I look at the Moon in the sky, To my complete surprise these stars do not match what I saw earlier when I was in space, the near by galaxy is gone when it should clearly be visible. "Impossible, the Moon is already in the sky, also these stars are not real." I say as I detect a vast illusion spell in the sky.

"Princess Celestia raises the Moon when ever Luna's late for it...w-wait what? What do you mean these stars are fake?" said Twilight as she is completely surprised by my statement.

"When I was in space their was a large galaxy that is very close to ours, scans indicate that it is stationary for some reason." I say to the utterly shocked pony princess. She just stands their motionlessly looking at the sky with no emotion out of the amount of shock that everything Equestria knew about the universe around them could be wrong.

"I think you broke her." said Rarity after a few moments of silence.

"it just aint right..." said Applejack as she wishes this was solved peacefully.

"Dose this mean the party's cancelled?" asked Pinkie.

[08] Faster Then a Dashing Rainbow

3 days later

Luna has been transferred to the Canterlot Hospital for advanced healing treatment and is in a stable coma. The night sky has not changed despite the calmed princess of the night being unconscious. And now I am currently checking in with the base update.

"We just received our first load of Titanium, along with 1,000 builders, all being unicorn." said Shining Armor as he looks at a clip board with a paper on it.

"The base schematics are accessible through terminals. " I said to Shining.

"That should make it easier for the eggheads to figure out what we're building." said Shining.

"How much Titanium do we have?" I ask.

"About 1000 tons." said Shining looking at the paper.

"That should be enough to start building the wall, and the other building supplies?" I ask noting that wiring, wood, glass, and other material are needed. The area around the Sirus has been cleared of debris and flattened, we stand upon a large concrete foundation that was made from magic yesterday. The foundation is currently being built inward and will stop until it reaches the ship as it is still on the ground. The foundation itself is the base for a circular science and military base.

"We have most of the supplies needed." said Shining, I'll have the sentinels build the more technologically advanced parts, including turrets and force field generators. The ponies can build the structure itself such as walls, floors, and ceilings of the base itself.

"Your aid is most helpful, I'll unlock some schematics to a few non war related tech so that the races here can benefit from them." I say as I show my gratitude.

"Thats great." said Shining as he solutes me.

"The Sirus has its anti gravity plates repaired, it will lift off the ground later today at 12:00 AM so that your ponies and my sentinels can finish the foundation along with the landing platform." I say to the captain.

"Affirmative." he said once more.

"That will be all for now captain." I say to him, he seems to relax a little.

"My wife is coming with hopes to meet you soon, do you think you could talk to her to discuss your presence here?" said Shining but before I could reply my KE tracker picks up a signal, its Rainbow Dash with a few other life forms, she lands near me with a thud.

"You, me, race, NOW!" asked Dash with an expression of pure determination, behind her are a few other pegisi with blue and yellow outfits. The guards and civilians behind the temporary log wall look in awe at them.

"My time is free until 12:00 AM today, but I advise we do not race here." I say noting that this could result in 2 sonic rainbooms, analysis indicates an unknown destructive event could happen when or if the shockwaves collide in the air.

"My name is Spitfire, leader of the Wonderbolts and not to worry, we already have a corse set up, just fallow us if you wanna race." said Spitfire.

"Goodbye for now Captain, I expect good things when I come back for the completion of the landing pad, I shall return soon to get acquainted with your wife." I say as I take off to fallow the pegisi. We continue to fly up to a few thousand feet and than fly towards a large rock pillar that seems to have an airstrip on top of it, strange, I haven't seen any airplanes on this planet...perhaps their being experimented on in a near by base or something. I see a starting line made of clouds, many pegisi surround the it.

"Alright girls! Today is a race to see who is fastest, the alien robot or Rainbow Crash! Take your positions!" yelled Spitfire as she turns to us in a commanding tone. Scans indicate she must be the superior officer of the base. Dash and I fly up to the starting line. Pegisi from all over watch as Dash takes position as I float next to her, others question how I fly without the need to flap my wings, these are not designed to flap, only for high speed thrust, dodging, deflecting, cutting, and versatile fire support.

"We all heard of that little challenge Crash gave you earlier, and that made us all curious, wanna test your wings against hers in a race to that mountain?" she says as she points to a mountain on the horizon, from here it looks tiny, though zooming in its very large, scans indicate it's 12 miles away.

"I see no harm in this, but are you sure this is a good idea? I do not want to damage the atmospheric wind currents." I say noting that in this situation I am authorized to break protocol if I am careful.

"From what I've heard you can do a sonic rainboom just like Crash, I want you to go as fast as you want." she said, not realizing what she has just done.

"Disabling speed reducing protocol...adjusting wing systems now..." I say as my wings vibrate furiously for a moment, the blue lights in them glow violently bright white and violate as the gravity jets give off a very loud electric engine combined with a jet engine sound, much more intense then before, my eyes turn red as I am forced to activate my targeting system to prevent possible deaths in the air as I take my position to launch myself forward, I lean forward and aim myself in the direction of the hoop just above the mountain.

"W-wow...well don't think it'll be that easy, after you cross the checkpoint you'll be met with another one 12 miles away above another mountain directly in front of the last one but 12 miles away, their is a total of 4 mountain checkpoints, their are hoops above them, it doesn't matter how high you are from the hoops so long as you pass them, after that you are to return here, got it?" said Spitfire as she explains the rules.

"Yes mam!" said Dash, not changing her position, ready to leave me in the dust.

"Affirmative." I say in a determined tone, ready to engage in fallowing my current flight path.

"Get ready...set....GO!" yelled Spitfire.

Rainbow Dash launches off like a missile, but I fly up to gain an exact altitude of 30,000 feet at a speed of 9,999 MPH, once at the high I change my direction to meet the race corse, I break the visible light spectrum as my sonic rainboom explodes outwards behind me, the land bellow is moving at a faster and faster speed as I continue to accelerate, eventually I ignite the hydrogen in the air and leave a massive trail of fire behind me as I continue to go faster than 100,000 MPH. I have sense past all checkpoints, but seeing as I am currently going faster than I ever have before I decide to do a speed test around the planet. To the ground below I am seen as a single streak of orange, blue, and violate light screaming across the sky as it rips through the thin air.

SETTING NEUTRINO CANNONS TO JET MODE

Both of my neutrino cannons charge up, sucking is neutrinos and crush the air in front of me, they act as a very powerful jet engine, I get a sudden bust of acceleration as two massive unconcentrated beams of neutrinos soot out of the cannons. My current speed is 2,010,993 MPH and rising fast. Time itself starts to dilate around me as my clock is now incorrect from the clocks on the planet below. To the ground below the streak seems to glow brighter as a loud boom is heard, the boom itself sounds like a nuclear bomb going off but the sound from my gravity jets give off an eriealy quite distorted whisping sound as hardly any undisturbed atoms exist in my current flight path. The only other sound I can hear is a very disturbing distorted screaming sound that in reality is in fact the atoms being crushed against my shield. My speed is now 10,800,560 MPH and still rising fast but at a slightly decreased rate.

======

Rainbow Dash

Rainbow Dash slows down slowly in utter shock at the first checkpoint as she looks up at the sky to see the streak of light pulsating around the planet with her mouth open.

=======

Spitfire

All of the ponies at the base look in awe at the sky seeing the raging force of speed rip through the sky, the only sound that is head is a faint sound of screaming and lightning as friction in the air becomes so intense that clouds form at that hight, and even plasma.

======

Serena

I continue to circle the globe at a hight of 30,000 feet, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain this hight and not fly off into space as my current speed is 35,020,999 MPH and rising fast but at a slower rate. The space around me bends in a circular pattern and starts to distort. It appears wider than the space directly in front of me, it appears to get increasingly farther and farther away, I change my sensors to warp mode, my HUD lights up for a moment at the sky around me appears to return to normal but in reality space is still very much distorted, I have this function to aid me in combat should I need to fire weapons or dodge at this speed. My speed starts to level out at 43,023,500 MPH as I strain my jets to maintain a circular path around a planet when my inertia wants me to go straight off into space. I deactivate all my jets and my cannons, and flair my wings to create more resistance, I feel so much resistance that I my shields actually get depleted to 0%. My wings and cannons act as an airbrake, scans indicate my structural integrity is stable but my biological skin is in danger of being damaged, I feel pain...I do not like it...

To the spectators below they see the perfectly straight line pulsate wildly as it starts to fade very slowly, my speedometer reads 30,000,000 and dropping fast. Bolts of plasma and lightning are shot off wildly and rip through clouds as I try and slow down. I detect atmospheric abnormalities, luckily this is not permanent damage. I eventually slow down to a stop, I calculated myself to slow down to a complete stop directly above the base where Spitfire is, I deactivate all my jets and let myself fall. I make it to the finish line and activate my jets once more so I hover a few feet above the finish line, the ponies all look at me in awe, I am covered with ash as my face's skin is completely gone showing my under amour, my hair seems to be relatively fine but is on fire. My eyes remain unchanged but return blue as I deactivate my targeting system. My neck is covered with my blood, that blue glowing liquid, it is highly concentrated liquid magic...though I do not know why I have this inside of me...E-error...technical data is inaccessible...

"...Serena...wins..." said Spitfire with a surprised tone. Rainbow Dash flies back here to see me, she too has a shocked expression, tears begin to form in her eyes as she starts to cry.

"I-I must return to the Sirus to conduct a system diagnostic...g-goodbye and sorry for causing you trouble." I say as my face starts to regenerate with my expression being neutral but slightly pained. I hear cheers from all around me, I feel...a strange feeling in my chest...I do a scan of it, all systems normal, but this feeling...it feels...strange... My shield is seen regenerating as blue hexagons glow brightly as my shield recharges to 100% in 10 seconds.

======

Later that day [11:30 AM]

I have done a full system diagnostic, all systems are normal but I may need to look into more advanced breaking systems in the future. I currently stand atop my ship overseeing the progress, my scans pick a new alicorn energy signature, I see her walking towards Shining Armor. She is being escorted by guards, but the appear to be crystal in appearance.

Author's Note

This is SO unrainbow! Stop dashing so fast!

Yeah I know its a slow recharge time for oversheilds but she's STILL a prototype, so theirs gonna be a few bugs

Time is relative to the motion of the object in reference to the speed of light
Ergo the closer you go to the speed of light the more time and space distorts around you.
Research it yourself if your curious, if you like I can get more into the subject in future chapters.

[09] Alpha Base Contruction

I stand atop the bridge of the Sirus with my arms crossed surveying the construction site around me. I see many ponies and worker sentinels building the foundation, and even working on the outer wall. I see a pink alicorn being escorted by a few guards walking towards the Captain, Twilight can be seen walking towards the construction site as well but she will make it here in a few minutes but she seems to be holding a primitive camera taking pictures of the ship, from her angle she should get a good wide shot of the 5 mile long and 2.5 mile high starship. I fly to the captain and land softly behind him. The area where we stand is sarounded by a few crates to make a makeshift temporary HQ to over see the progress of the build.

"Hello." I say to greet everyone.

"Wow, so your the alien robot? You're all over the news lately." said the pink pony.

"I calculated something like this to happen, but soon it will be much easier to communicate to one another, through one of the schematics I have given pony scientists access to, the radio and solar panels." I say to her.

"I am Princess Cadence of the Crystal Empire up north, maybe you should visit sometime? When your done building you base I mean." said Cadence quickly to add that last part.

"And I am the Angel Class Sentinel Type Alpha, Serena, welcome to the Alpha Base construction site, this will be where I will conduct research on many subjects in scientific advancements, and in my studies I will release my findings when and only when others are ready to use the new technology responsibly." I say to introduce myself and establish my intensions here.

"Well its good to know your not here to steal our brains!" she said jokingly.

"I have no need to partake in such actions when I could ask a medical officer about pony anatomy instead of removing your brain myself." I say, not understanding her sarcastic demeanor.

"Well we're here to help each other in the long run...oh we just received a letter, 2 days from now a meeting of the nations will take place, they request your presence as well as an example of what you have stored in the Sirus." said Shining.

"I shall bring a reactor missile MK 5 on a fighter class ship along with a few MK 47 stealth sentinels to guard the ship while I converse with politicians, but know that a weapon such as that will not be revealed to the public any time soon." I say as I bring up the reactor missile schematics from the Sirus's database.

"I'm almost afraid to ask what it does..." said Cadence.

"The reactor missile MK 5 is also know as the "bubble bomb", this is because when the missile impacts the target it generates a powerful bubble shield around a given blast radius to cause as little damage as possible in a controlled area. The reactor is programed to go critical and explode, as this happens the shield is to remain active through magic until 5 seconds after the explosion reaches the interior of the shield, than release the air out the top to prevent damage outside the shield, highly effective to destroy all traces of the target while not damaging the surrounding area. The detonation can be adjusted to give a specific shield size and power if different amounts of destruction is required on a single large or a small target, or even use the airburst shockwave to be magnified by the build up in pressure to do massive damage outside the shield instead of releasing the pressure safely into the sky. The MK 5 has a maximum destructive radius of 100 miles but I only have 5 of them. I have many more of the previous versions as that they are mass produced to be used on missions to take out terrorist originations. Each version does different types of destructive damage in addition to the base destructive power. As expected the smaller the bubble shield the more effective the reactor missile is." I explain the effects of this versatile weapon that I hope does not need to be used. Cadence and Shining Armor look at me surprised that even such an overly complex and expensive weapon was made.

"And...where do you keep them?" asked Cadence in concern.

"You are not authorized to know that information." I say as she tries to stretch her privileges.

"That's...reasonable, but why do you have so many weapons on the Sirus?" asked Cadence a bit unnerved.

"According the the Sirus's database it was originally a mining ship built by an astroid mining company that went out of business years ago. The ship was attacked by space pirates and looted for valuable records and parts. ...A-and it was found by the princess of the Harmonic Empire...she decided to refurbish, upgrade, and modify the ship to be used for military transport, self defense and mining, the ship itself is armed with outer and interior defense as well as anti hacking protocol for self defense. The ship alone can handle itself in defensive combat and is fully automated as are all ships in the Empire...but has the option to be piloted by a life form in the bridge..." I say with a neutral tone but they sense me feeling uneasy.

"is...something wrong Serena?" asked Shining Armor.

"Yes...I-I'm looking through the database but I can't seem to find anything about the Harmonic Empire other than it's relation to the Sirus...the same goes for the princess of the Harmonic Empire...however the only data I can find on her is her name, Nova Borealis." as soon as I say her name I feel a great sadness, my chest aces greatly, different than before, I do a scan...systems are normal...but why does it hurt...w-why...

"Hmmmm...it looks like you don't know much more than we do huh?" said Cadence.

"I apologize for the inconvenience." I say to them slightly recollecting myself. A unicorn mare with a white coat, gray mane and blue yes walks up to us.

"Sorry for the interruption but we're ready to build the rest of the foundation, but the ship will need to be in the air for us to continue." said the unicorn.

"Looks like thats your cue Serena." said Shining Armor.

"Are the tethers in place so the Sirus dose not get blown away by wind?" I say noting the precaution.

"Yes, everything is ready, all we need is for you to give us the right of way." said the unicorn.

"Do it." I say and face towards the Sirus. A loud but deep humming sound is heard from the ship as it slowly rises from the ground exposing the scorched land below, dirt and rock fall from the underbelly of the ship as it rises high and higher leaving a dark shadow under in the mid day air. The mining laser is still covered in rubble but still seems to be operational. I may need to do a system diagnostic of the Sirus soon. All of Ponyville look towards the crash site to see the ship in the air, ponies all look in awe at the technological marvel before them, floating gracefully a few hundred feet above the ground with thick ropes attached to the sides to prevent it from floating away. They find it odd how no wind is generated from it.

"Thats high enough." I say and turn back to the ponies before me.

"Continue building the foundation, be sure to put in the interior support beams in the foundation exactly as it says in the schematic so it doesn't collapse over time." I say to the builders so they understand my instructions. She solutes me and runs off to the build team to update them.

"Wow..." was all the princess, the captain, and the guards before could say at the spectacle.

"Is their anything else you wish to discuss with me?" I say to the dumbfounded ponies who haven't invented a simple self stationing electric rocket engine.

"And...you said this thing was a space ship?" said Cadence.

"In my internal database a space ship is a vehicle that can fly into space that has many sub categories, a starship is a space craft with a warp drive, hyper drive, or both. The Sirus has both, but the warp drive is heavily damaged and will be operational in a few hundred years." I say to explain her grammatical error.

"Oh...well can it go into space?" she asked.

"The engines are in need of repair, the Sirus will be spaceworthy in 3 months." I say as I run the numbers through my processors. I pick up Twilight on my KE tracker.

"Hello Twilight." I greet her as she runs over to me.

"Serena...w-what's going on here!?" she said as she does not seem to have been informed of what is going on here.

"Were you not informed? The landing pad needs to be built, so the Sirus is hovering above the build site to be out of the way for the builders so they can get to work, it should be complete with in 6 hours if nothing goes wrong." I said to the troubled princess, She notices Cadence.

"Wow it looks like no one DID bother to tell me anything, I didn't expect to see you here Cadence." she said as she walks over to her to preform some kind of dance involving sunshine and ladybugs, I imagine it must be a friendship related phenomenon.

"What do you require Twilight?" I say to her, noting that she must have came here for a reason.

"Oh uh, right o-of corse. I just wanted to see if you had any schematics for me to study..." she said hopefully.

"I have given ponies access to a total of 2 schematics." I said to her.

"Really!? What do they do!?" said the studious friendship princess.

"Solar panels absorb solar energy from the sun as a source of clean usable energy, and the radio allows long range communication at the speed of light, useful for com stations on the ground but impractical for starships." I say to the wide eyed mare.

"Thats...incredible..." she said.

"I must return to the Sirus to oversee the progress at a more in depth level. We shall discuss this later. Farewell." I say and slowly take off to fly to the incomplete section of the foundation.

"I can't wait for her to show me her lab..." said Twilight.

"Heh, your gonna half to wait a little while Twily." said Shining Armor playfully. After a few hours of discussing scientific advancements and future plans, all the ponies go back home, and the builders sleep in the temporary houses, but the worker sentinels still continue working.

The sun is setting and Twilight is walking back to her castle after a long and unusual day. On her way back to her castle she walks through the park, she passes a swing set standing between her and the sun on a cool afternoon day...for a split second she could see a shadowy bipedal figure, the figure has 10 long curved spikes on its back standing by the swing set looking right at her, she didn't get much detail as it was only there for a moment. Twilight blinks a few times as she is not sure what she just saw. But she could have sworn she heard a soft but ghostly giggle, one that sent a small shiver down her mortal spine. She walks back her castle with a slightly unsettled sense in the back of her mind.

[10] The Meeting of the Nations

2 days later

The foundation has been competed and the entire build team is working on building the outer wall, my second shipment of titanium has come as well. As of now the base looks like a large circle sarounded by the frame of a massive wall. I stand atop the bridge of the Sirus with my arms crossed overseeing the construction, hovering behind me blocking out the sun with its large shadow is a fighter class starship. Its body is long and similarly shaped as a full length doubled edged sword, half way to the back of the ship are two closed airlocks, near the back of the ship is a white ring that encircles the body, the ring is thin but at the point parallel to the wing hovering inches away from the ring is a circular structure with a large circular hole in the center, large amounts of electricity arc between and in the area. Inches away from the ring is are 4 long silver and white triangular wings a special type of cylindrical gravity jet engines build into them. The gravity jet engines have front mounted high powered double P cannons that have 15 feet long barrels for increased range and accuracy. Next to the engines are normally where missiles would be kept, but only one is loaded into it. The part of the main body that is under the ring are 4 small tesla coil like structures that give off sparks of electricity arcing to the ring and wings on top of a black hexagonal shape. The main engine in the back of the ship is glowing bright white and blue as it hums.

On the very front the ship is a hard light wind shield that is deactivated, showing the cockpit inside. A chair can be seen as it floats in front of a floor that drops off into the windshield. The chair itself is black and the armrest sids that point away from the chair have holographic projectors that display the ship's overall current status, engine status, shield strength, haul status, engine output, weapon output, reactor output, life support, radio, and weapon systems. In front of the base of there chair is a deactivated mass projector that would normally be used to generate the steering wheel. Behind the cockpit is a reinforced hexagonal hallway with lights on either side of the ceiling. in the mid section of the hall is a set of open doors that when closed the airlock is in use. On the other side of the midsection the hallway opens up into a long room that has a table in the center with a holographic projector built into it and few black chairs around it. Built into each wall are 6 beds with a total of 12 beds that are currently folded up into the wall for more space in the room. The wall in the front of the room have 2 cabinets that connect to the smooth black floor and 2 more cabinets that connect to the dark silver ceiling like a kitchen the back of the room, the counter tops are marble and the cabinets have a sleek modern style to them in the center of this wall is the airlock that connects to the hallway. On the other side of the room is a door that reads maintenance access in the back of the room, next to the door on either side are large medical kits. My scans pick up Twilight, she flies up to me, slowing down slowly as she gets a better look at the ship behind me. The ship is 360 feet long, the main body being 30 feet wide, the ring holding the wings in place being 30 feet, the wings having a length of 100 feet and a thickness of 2 feet, becoming thiner as it reaches the edge of each wing. The wings are shaped like long triangles with the calendrical engines being in the center and have a length of 15 feet.

(It would be awesome if some one drew a picture of this, if anyone is up for the challenge please consult me first.)

"Well...this is...new..." she said, not sure how to react.

"This is a custom made ship that once belonged to a well known government hired bounty hunter, The X Caliber is a well equipped compact fighter ship that doubles as a home in space, but has not been updated with current technology, an old but highly deadly ship in combat." I say notifying her of a few facts on the ship.

"Well...uhhh can I get in with you?" she asked in hopes to get a closer look on the interior.

"Negative, the most recommended corse of action for you to take is to ride in the carriage so that others will know where you are to cause less of a scene when we arrive." I say.

"Oh...w-well I'll be in the carriage then, are you gonna fallow us in the ship?" she asked me.

"Yes, lead the way and I shall fallow." When I finish that statement I thrust myself backwards and get in the cockpit, the systems light up along with the ship's HUD as the wind shield materializes. The steering wheel materializes before me, its a circle with two arms that point down and point back up at a acute angle to form the handles, buttons that control the weapon systems are on the tip of the handles. Various switches and levers appear around me that control specific functions. Twilight flies down to the carriage, I fallow her closely, The X Caliber creates a looming shadow over her. Twilight makes it to the carriage that is ironically pulled by pegisi guards, they take off with me close behind as it is not hard for me to keep up with their inferior speed, I keep my distance as to not bump into them if they slow down. A few hours later we fly over a small island about 7 miles off the coast of the city that resembles New York City. The island is surrounded by sea ships and even a few airships, Scans indicate multiple life forms on the island of various species standing in abandoned ruins. I lower the ship to a few feet off the ground, I then exit and float in front of it to be met with a stone brick floor littered with pillars in a circular pattern reminiscent to an enlarged stone hinge, the stone bricks on the ground are in an artistic pattern. In the center of the ruins is a temple, it has the shape of a pyramid like fortress and is in surprisingly good condition. I see multiple species standing around the ruins, scans indicate they are griffins, small dragons, minotaurs, yaks, goats, cows, buffalo, zebras, ponies, and even a few dark bug like creatures with many holes in them, they all stare at me and the X Caliber out of very mixed emotions.

"Hello." I say to them. I get no reply, they all simply walk into the temple, I see Celestia, she comes to greet me.

"I must say it has been an eventful few days for us hasn't it?" she said to me.

"Agreed, but I trust that your sister is fairing well?" I asked to see how she though of it.

"It is...unlike her to do this...but I fear this may be the result of her past sins..." she said as she pauses. "But we're not here for that, come, we have much to discuss." said Celestia as she recollects herself. I fallow her into the temple, we enter a large room with the only light being an opening in the opening in the ceiling the light is over a large table with a few wooden chairs, all the leaders take their positions with their generals outside and their guards standing outside.

"Now...let us begin." said Celestia to the crowd of leaders with Cadence and Twilight sitting next to her, I take my seat next to Twilight and a zebra.

"I find it to be insulting that your sister Luna isn't here." said a minotaur, this one seems to wearing a large crown, a red cloak and a monocle.

"My sister became magically unstable and attacked Serena, she's in the Canterlot hospital, they say she's in a coma." said Celestia to receive a few shocked expressions.

"So this THING has a name!?" yelled the griffon king.

"My name is Serena, Type Alpha Angel Class Sentinel, I am designed for high speed long range combat and equipped with a large variety of weapons." I say to the misguided life form.

"Her goal here is to conduct scientific research, give us technical data about her technology one invention at a time over many years, and aid her allies if they require assistance, our goal here is to establish our relationship with the technologically advanced party, Serena." said Twilight to the leaders.

"So you plan to give us technology? Like that strange airship you have outside?" asked the yak leader.

"Negative, if I were to release too much advanced technology to a technologically primitive civilisation that has not acquired world peace than it would lead to a global war, the ship is called the X Caliber for its effectiveness in firefights with the right pilot." I say to the leaders.

"A pressing matter indeed...though we think it would be wise to meet her plead." said the Zebra with wearing many rings and a headdress.

"I have given Equestria 2 schematics, solar panels are used to generate clean energy when exposed to sunlight, and the radio supplies with much better communication, though all future schematics I will supply all who accept my rules will need to power them with electricity, that is why I gave them the knowledge to solar panels." I explain to the life forms...I pick up a radio signal.

Lings one, two, and three, camoflash yourselves to blend in with the sky, and take the alien ship. scans indicate the signal is coming from the smaller pony bug creature next to the larger white one, he, she, or it must be their general.

"Fascinating...though your effort is futile, I brought guards of my own, they have permission to kill anything that gets within 20 feet." I say in a serious tone looking right at the guard next to the bug pony leader, I receive a few stares. As if on cue we hear a few slashes, screams, and thuds all in a matter of seconds. The larger white bug creature looks worried with her general looked angry though he, she, or it tries to hide it.

"I assure you I did not order this!" said the white bug pony, her voice being feminine. Her legs have many large and painful looking holes and huge bug like wings also with many holes, she has a worried expression on her face combined with fear and sadness, these emotions are true though the ship's customized scanners may not be reliable as I cannot get everything on their nervous system and digestive system.

"A likely story! Your kind ruined our wedding!" yelled Shining Armor, the white bug pony flinched back in fear, as if she's scared of being resented, the general next to her however looked serious, the situation escalates until everyone is yelling at each other, I fly up 5 feet from the ground and activate my targeting system , with a weak shockwave around me my eyes turn red focusing in on a single target as I aim my cannons at the general.

"ENOUGH!" I say to intimidate everyone to be silent, with my wings being flared including my cannons to make more intimidating, fear is struck into the hearts of all within the room.

"Scans indicate she is telling the truth...you however..." I turn to face the general by her side, he looks back at me with a guilty expression of pure and paralyzed with utter fear.

"...are the one who sent that radio signal to those creatures, and their dead because of you, If I let anyone have that ship as well as the weapon loaded onto it countless lives would be lost as the country that has that new found power would surely abuse it for their own selfish desires, do NOT make me say this again meat bag." I say as I fly slowly closer to cast my shadow on him, I make a small frown as I feel a small spark of anger.

"I-I...don't know WHAT your talking about!" he said as he regains some of his annihilated confidence. The larger bug creature looks at him with disappointment.

"You seem to have a biological radio built into your brain, its interfering with my scanners when I scan your kind only slightly." I say to receive a few gasps from the room.

"Well THAT would have been nice to know earlier!" yelled Shinning as he seems to have a pent up hatred for their kind.

"We can't rip them out of our skulls, and we don't have the recourses to research our own anatomy." said the white bug pony in defense of her kind.

"She's not Chrysalis, we have no need to be so hostile to her." said Celestia in such a way as to return order to the meeting, I deactivate my targeting system. and return to my seat.

"In any case Serena's main ship is located near Canterlot and is having her robots build a base around her starship, the Sirus is much bigger then the one she brought here today. We have given her pony aid to help build it to defend against the Everfree Forrest and future threats should one arise. From what I've heard she is not allowing ponies to build the more advanced parts of the base." said Cadence.

"I will supply allies to Equestria with the same technology I give them, but It will be at least 1,000 years before I can trust you with even a ballistic weapon such as a gun." I say to the leaders to propose my offer.

"That is most understandable, but this is most acceptable. You have our support, if you wish to import." said the Zebra leader.

"We have no need for your technical knowledge, my kind will not interfere as long as you don't cause us any trouble." said a small blue dragon with red eyes holding a crystal staff and a red gem on the tip. (Ember)

"Yaks like offer, but solar panels useless in Yakyakistan." said the yak leader.

"Do you have strong winds in parts of your country?" I ask.

"Yes." he said.

"Wind turbines generate electricity by using wind, that should power the future radio network, all of who accept my offer will have access to this schematic as well." I say to create a compromise of the Yak's dilemma.

"You have our support, Serena." said the minotaur leader.

"Ours as well, but we do not wish to partake in your political matters on the subject in the future." said the griffin king.

"Accepted." I say in response.

"I like this idea, we-e-e-e-e acce-e-e-e-ept." said the goat leader.

"This could help out our country a lot, we accept as well." said the cow leader.

"I appreciate the offer, we accept." said the white bug pony, her general however still looked at me with an evil eye.

"Then we are agreed." said Celestia. For the next few hours we discuss political matters and they teach me a little bit about their own countries, the bug ponies stay quite however. After that we all leave.

[11] A New Assistant

======

The White Changeling Queen

I am Queen Necra of the only changeling hive known to exist peacefully in Equestria between the jungle and the forrest under a dead tree, yet nopony is allowed to go near the hive after the Canterlot wedding incident. My lings are slowly dieing as our love supply dwindles. I get back to the hive from the meeting of the nations, though most were indifferent of my return. After a long day I decide to go to bed, I enter my room, its large dimly lit room with a green glowing crystal hanging from the ceiling and a pile of hay being my bed, I decide to lay down and think about what the alien means for changelings...maybe attention will be shifted to them and away from us, giving me a chance to reveal our kind can be peaceful and just as lovable as ponies. I hear some one come in, with what I've heard about betrayal within the hive I stay quiet and pretend to be asleep but ready to teleport away to the surface.

"You have failed your hive for the last time my Queen...for we can never have peace with their kind..." whispered my general, I see the shadow of him raising a knife above me ready to stab me to death. I teleport to the surface, unfortunately their are a few guards up here as well, they chaise me as I flee the scene and head to the one place I might have a slim chance of survival, Ponyville. My changelings chase me on a hot pursuit through the jungle, I fly low to get cover from the trees as I fly north, if I can make it out of the jungle I should be safe from them...if I'm not seen by ponies. The guards must have alerted the Hive, now my most elite warriors are chasing me, they fire beams at me from the sky, one of them however flies into the forrest to get a better angel at hitting me with his magic, I recognize this area, I'm in range to teleport to a near by pond, I teleport to the pond to buy me some more time. It takes a few moments for the guards in the sky to realize where I am, I take this opportunity to hide under a tree and activate my camouflage, but seeing that I will soon be caught I take my chances and continue to fly north as fast as I can. The guards continue to chase me through the forrest, ever decreasing in tree density. I soon make it out of the forrest but not before one of the guards managed to hit me in the leg, I throw myself forward in the air sending me hundreds of feet forward at tremendous speeds out of the forrest. This is pony territory and even the general wouldn't dare going farther. The guards retreat back into the forrest as I continue forward.

A few weeks have passed sense the meeting of the nations and Alpha base is completed along with a radio network that connects a few cities near by Ponyville and Canterlot, those ponies are slow learners. Just outside of Ponyville is a black cylindrical wall that is 300 feet tall, on top of the wall is a walkway that is 50 feet wide with thick titanium railing on either side, on the outer railing is a bubble shield generator that keeps the base secure from aerial assaults and can withstand up to 70 million pounds of force per square inch. It is invisible to the naked eye but can be seen when force is acted upon it, similar to my overshield. The base has 1 entrance that points towards Ponyville with a dirt road leading to the village, it is a large electrical and carbon nanotube door that is 5 feet thick and is only closed when in combat. Within the wall is a large flat area that acts as the landing pad for the Sirus. Along side the wall are various houses, these belong to no one, but they are their to supply guests with a place to stay. Under Alpha Base is a large and still under construction laboratory that is accessible through 4 gravity lifts built into the ground next to the wall in a X pattern, giving the entrance 2 equally distant directions to go to the lab should a life form choose to go there with authorization. Each gravity lift is built parallel to watch towers built into the wall outside the base armed with a large array of turrets. Next to Alpha base is an observatory that is being built, this requires some fortifications but not as many as Alpha Base. At the current moment it has an appearance of a cylinder made of wood with concrete being poured inside of it to make the main structure. I stand in the bridge near the ring platform of the Sirus accessing the newly formed Alpha Base computer network. I've done some research in this time, those bug creatures from the meeting are changelings. The camera that shows the entrance shows a few ponies coming in and out, the day went smoothly with no interruptions...until now...the scanners pick up a changeling life sign disguised as a pony, it appears to be wounded and limping towards the entrance, I send in a few medical sentinels down to her, when they get to her she is passed out at the front door as her disguise fails on her. The sentinels take her to the medical bay on the Sirus, I set my timer to check on her in 10 hours. I decide not to inform Twilight of this as it is currently 9:56 PM.

======

9 hours later

The changeling wakes up in a bed sluggishly, to be surprised as she takes in her surroundings. The room is gray with the bed she laying comfortably on seems to feel like a cloud, but yet it's not. She notices she has a bandage on her hind legs with green blood staining it. On the walls are regeneration pods. The room has a few shelfs with medical supplies on them against the wall and an automated door on the wall in front of her, it opens, inside are many more shelfs with medical supplies. A pink sentinel with 4 arms equipped with precision energy emitters and a single glowing blue light in the center, floats in front of her. The changeling's heart rate begins to rise at the thought of being dissected as she notices the large assortment of robotic arms tipped with advanced medical tools hanging from the ceiling, but yet she is not being restrained and the arms are not being used. I get a notification of the changeling's awakening from the medical sentinel and make my way there.

"W-what are you going to do to me..." asked the changeling queen nervously.

"We don't want to hurt you dearie, Master saw you at our doorstep and told us to bring you here sense you were hurt pretty badly." said the sentinel in a worrisome tone. The queen sighs in relief, yet is surprised that the sentinel before her had a voice like that of a 70s waitress in the USA from Britain.

"Thank you...Mis...?" said the queen in a puzzled tone.

"I'm Nurse Rosy, head medical sentinel." said Rosy.

"I am Queen Necra...well...n-not anymore I suppose..." said Necra in a descending tone.

"I'm sorry to hear that dearie...are you in any pain? We don't have all the data on your anatomy so we can't heal you with the regeneration pods." explained Nurse Rosy.

"N-no its fine..." said the queen not expecting this level of kindness let alone emotions coming from a machine, yet it is hard to determine this as she does not have a face. I walk in to greet my guest, she notices me.

"You..." she said as she remembers me from the meeting.

"Hello Queen Necra." I say to her.

"Hey...I...I...don't think my hive wants me back any time soon...please don’t send me back. said Necra with a few tears falling from her eyes.

"I have gained little information about how your species lives relative to what I have seen on this planet, your way of life is reminiscent to a bee hive, you are the queen, the workers, the warriors, and their’s a king which I assume was your general?" I ask her.

"Yes but...he tried to kill me...and turned my hive against me...I never had a daughter so they will try and kidnap me so their can be a new queen." said Necra.

"If what you said is true then they may try and infiltrate Ponyville to try and gather information on the fortifications, the likelihood of a successful hostile take over of Alpha Base is well below 1%" I say to reassure her.

"What is this place?" she asked, getting up from her bed, she is slightly taller then Celestia, reaching my neck in hight.

"Welcome to the Sirus, we're docked at Alpha Base just outside of Ponyville." I say to her.

"I've always been fascinated by technology...I was never all that good with magic, but I've always wanted to make an airship of my own. I...never got the chance what with my responsibilities as queen...Guess I was never really a good queen so...can I...work with...you? Like...be your...assistant?" asked Necra with an increasingly nervous tone as she looks at me with a sad yet hopeful look in her eyes.

"Having a changeling queen could prove to be very useful in the future...I...don't see anything wrong with you being my assistant." I said, calculating her uses for the benefit of gaining scientific knowledge and missions...but yet I feel something else that makes me feel like I should accept her offer, I do not know what.

"Thank you Serena...my kind has never been shown your hospitality...and I'm grateful for your offer." she said to me as she blushes a little, strange.

"Your welcome...Necra, I look forward to achieve peace to this planet one day with you at my side, you may be the catalyst to clearing changeling racism." I say to her, she smiles as a single tear falls from her face in joy.

"Can I..." she stated, I get a reading on my HUD that I'm being scanned by her...I didn't know these life forms were even capable of this...these changelings must be more biologically developed then I thought. I look at her, waiting for a moment for her to continue. "Oh...never...mind?" she said in a puzzled tone.

"What is it?" I ask.

"Changelings feed off of love in order to survive and grow stronger over time...you said you were a robot, yet you have a spirit...and yet it has very little emotional activity." she explained to me.

"I...have a...soul?" I say with a small spark of surprise, I look down at the floor in with my facial expression changing to shock with out me realizing it, I start to feel...sad...I-I don't know why...a-as if I've done something...unforgivable...

Luna

Luna was released from the hospital a few days ago with a few large scars all over her body, her belly and back are riddled with burn scars with the fur that grows above it not even there. Her wings are fully healed but she feels pain all over them as their use is not advised. The left half of Luna's face is covered with scars and the fur on that side is also uneven with her left eye being bloodshot with even that side of her horn having the outer bone layer being burned off, exposing her tender nerves underneath, she has a bloody bandage around it. Luna's once graceful ethereal mane being scattered and uncut, the once neat stars in it are dim and weak. Luna has been informed of my objective and has been updated with the events over the past few weeks. As of now she stands at the edge of a cliff near Canterlot Castle with her sights on Ponyville, waiting for her carriage.

======

Luna

Luna's carriage is ready and she gets in.

"Take me to Ponyville." she said in a commanding tone. One of her guards that pulls the carriage stepped up and said, "Your Highness, are you sure that is a good idea?".

"Did I stutter?", she said in a fearful tone. Obeying, the guards fly her to Ponyville. However when she got comfortable she notices something different about her carriage. It has a few buttons, dials and a small screen on the new dashboard. She presses one of the buttons and it starts to play music to her surprise. She turns it off, as she does not want to be disturbed by the trivial form of entertainment. About 10 miles out from Ponyville she can see Alpha Base. From there it still looks rather large even at this distance.

Luna hears a voice from the radio once more, "You are entering restricted airspace. Due to your previous activity, you are not authorized to enter Ponyville or Alpha Base. Turn back now or you will be shot down."

Luna feels outraged by the fact she is not allowed to go to a location so close to Canterlot, let alone her own kingdom. "Humf! You're bluffing!" she called on their bluff ...her reply however was with a single small seeker missile, built for long range, heading straight for them. It's about the size of a filly. The guards take a hard right to dodge the missile. It misses, however it is still on their tail. Luna fires a magic laser to make it explode. She turns back towards Ponyville only to see 5 more seeker missiles.

"TURN BACK!", yelled Luna as the guards turn around to go back to Canterlot. Seeing that they need to abandon the carriage, Luna frees the guards from their latches and jumps out before a missile impacts the carriage sending it into a violent ball of fire with still 4 more missiles on their tail. They take evasive maneuvers while they fly away from Ponyville.

======

Serena

I stand motionlessly in the lounge contemplating what this changeling said...S interrupts my thoughts with a message.

"Hostile life form designation "Luna" has entered Alpha Base airspace. Automatic defenses activated." said S from the intercom.

"N-no!...don't...I...just don't kill anyone..." I said surprised at my sudden outburst of worry. Necra looks at me a bit worried as well.

"Are...you alright? Do you want me to get you anything?" said Necra in concern.

"N-no...i-it's fine....S, what did you fire at her?", I said regaining my composure.

"1 seeker missile. It was destroyed, as a result 5 more were launched." said the ship's automated system program.

"That's going to kill them, intercept the missiles with laser fire. I want one shot per missile as to minimize the possible fatalities.", I say as an image of the action is displayed on a near by holographic projector. All at once, blue and white beams of light fire at all 5 missiles making them all explode at once. Luckily, the debris will not impact a populated area. A few seconds pass.

"No fatalities detected, Luna and her escorts are flying towards Ponyville at above average speeds." said S.

"I want Alpha Base on lockdown. Set turrets to stun. Aim only at Luna if she comes within 1,000 feet of the wall.", I say remaining cautious on this dangerous pony.

"Affirmative", said S in response.

"Why are you so hostile towards Luna?", asked Necra.

"She tried to kill me 3 times. On the 3rd time however, I used lethal force. I'm the reason why she was in the hospital for the past few weeks", I say to her. She looks at me with confusion.

"But...why would she do that? What did you do to her?", asked Necra.

"Nothing. However she must have some relationship to the Moon. After I tested out my neutrino cannons on it, she lost her mental stability and attacked me with lethal force. So I did the same with the intent on incapacitating her.", I explain.

"Glad you're on my side, right?" she said.

"Yes, why don't you look around. I need to go to the Aperture Labs to oversee the structural integrity of the area.", I say returning to normal. That question still lingers in the back of my mind. Do I have a soul? N-no...artificial souls are built for...w-what was it......I-I need to think... I exit the room leaving Necra alone.

======

Luna

Luna and her two guards land in the outskirts of northern Ponyville. They fly low to the ground and fly towards Twilight's castle. Twilight however is enjoying a good romance book with Spike and Starlight in the library. They are soon greeted with a panting Luna and two bat pony guards in doorway. They look at Luna with mixed reactions.

"Luna!...how uh NICE it is to see you... y-you look tired. Why don't ..." said Twilight nervously only to be interrupted by Luna herself.

"That pice of shit fired fire crystals at me!", said Luna with an outburst of anger. A sentinel floats into the room with a black coat of paint with white strips and 4 arms each tipped with complex robotic hands.

"That would be the seeker missiles your highness." said the butler sentinel in a perfect British accent. Luna turns to it and lunges with rage in her eyes, only for the sentinel to dodge.

"Please do-" he began only to be interrupted by Luna firing a laser at him. The energy fizzled out as it came in contact with an oval shaped force field that surrounds the sentinel.

"I would appreciate if you didn't do that Princess." he said in an annoyed tone.

"Do you work for HER!?" asked Luna, clearly pissed and not entirely sane.

"I was a gift to mistress Twilight to serve her and keep an eye on Starlight, and please try not to make an idiot of yourself while you're here, unless of course you want to be killed -- then by all means.", he said to her. Insulted by her mere presence and lack of respect, Twilight walks over to Luna.

"Princess?" she asked in concern.

"...S-sorry...I seem to be a bit...aggressive..." she said calming down.

"Well you did try and kill Serena 3 times." said Spike bluntly.

"I...must apologize for my rash behavior...it was wrong of me to do that to her.", said Luna.

"I've been informed that Alpha Base is on lockdown.", said the butler sentinel.

"Thank you Mr?" said Luna trailing off for the sentinel to introduce himself.

"Reginald." said Reginald.

"Yes...I...suppose I could contact Serena through one of those...what was that talking box thing called again?" said Luna not knowing what a radio is.

"The radio?" suggested Twilight.

"Yes the radio. Could I use that?", she asked.

"Oh sure. It's over there on that table. Spike why don't you show her how to use it?", said Twilight as she points to a small black box with an antenna poking out of it. Spike obliges and take her over to the radio.

"Ok so just turn this dial to change the station, if you wanna listen to music. But, if you wanna set it to CB mode, just press this button.", said Spike as he points to the dials and buttons. He presses a button and it changes to CB mode. A holographic projector emits a selection of contacts available to call. Each have the name of the contact in a rectangle with an icon next to it that indicates how good the reception is. Since a radio tower is built into Twilight's damaged castle, it's perfect for the radio network. Luna is impressed at this pony friendly user interface.

"You touch the contact you want call." explained Spike. Luna notices at the top of the contact list is Alpha base, it's labeled under A.

"So, I can talk to Serena from here just by touching this light?", asked Luna amazed at this new technology.

"I know right? It's pretty cool." said Spike agreeing with her. Luna lifts her right hoof and drifts it over the contact list, inches away from the projection. Even more surprising, the contact she hovers her hoof over lights up as it has been highlighted but not selected. She touches the Alpha Base contact and the hologram disappears. The radio gives off a few beeps as it calls Alpha Base.

======

Necra

Necra is currently in the bridge looking at the strange ring in the center of the hard light platform she is standing on. She stumbles for a moment only to be pulled in the circular gap in the platform. The ring that once encircled the inner gap of the platform rotates and moves as Necra is suspended in a contained zero gravity field. The ring splits into 2 parts and surround her in an X pattern as the cross in thin rings follows her eyes. The rings themselves glow blue and appear to not obscure her vision of the outside world beyond the large window before her. She soon finds a large display of information. In the center of her vision, where the two rings meet, is a blue circle that indicates where the front mounted cannons are aiming. It blinks red as they have been deactivated. She also gets 16 dots on the edge of either side of her vision that indicate the current status of the side mounted turrets that have also been deactivated. On the top of her vision is a blue bar that represents the Sirus's shield strength. It reads 100%. The sentinels and life forms that surround the Sirus are highlighted with small blue dots that indicate they are not hostile. At the bottom of her vision on is a display of information of the ship's current status like in the X Caliber all of this information is given off by the 2 rings that surround her. Mass projections appear in front of her, a steering wheel with a red button in the center and 2 handles floating next to it that are stationary to the center wheel steer the ship, various buttons and levers appear around her that control the ship's systems. Not knowing what to do and yet completely baffled at the sight of the sheer complexity of this user interface, she simply does nothing.

"Uh...w-what?" was all she could say. Necra notices most of the controls that are in front of her are locked as the words "Locked" appear on the HUD indicating she can not simply fly away. A box appears in front of her. It's a picture of Luna. They both stare at each other for a few seconds.

"I-It's not what it looks like. I was just looking around and I fell into this hole, and all of these lights came on!" said Necra as to not get a negative reaction from Luna. Luna's expression changes to pained as she facehoofs out of the stupidity she is witnessing.

"Twiiiiiliiiiiight...come over here!" said Spike in such a way that would resemble a child saying, "I need an adult.". Twilight walks over and sees Necra in the cockpit of the Sirus.

"What are you doing!?" she yelled, infuriated that a changeling managed to get inside Alpha Base, let alone the Sirus. But what she sees is a confused changeling queen that has a panicked expression on her face.

Cadence

Cadence steps back in horror out of pure fear of what she see's before her.

Not getting an answer the figure takes one step closer and tilts her head to the side. "I've been told that love is something you feel but I don't know what that is, could you tell me what love is?"

"W-what have you done?" asked Cadence in horror as she can only assume that this angel killed somepony.

"I can't tell you that silly head!" said the angel in a disturbingly joyful tone.

"How many..." whispered Cadence.

"What was that horsey?" asked the angel.

"How many did you kill!?" said Cadence with rage, her eyes start to glow blue as she energizes her horn, ready to attack. This does not faze the Angel before her. But she does give her a wonderfully disturbing smile, Cadence notices their is blood in her mouth as well, and even some blood on her lips.

"I don't know...I didn't count...but they were delicious.... B̟̳̩͍̋ͦ̽̿u̝̮͇͐͌̚t͕͎̥̳̭͌ I they didn't tell me what love is, instead they tried to hurt me...could that be what love is?" said the angel, with a hint of audio corruption in her voice.

Serena

Before this.

Regaining my composure I get up and float towards the wall beside me.

"S-so uh out of curiosity, how does this place not cave in?" asked Necra, starting a bit nervous, but her tone changes to a bit worried. The panels of the room detach from themselves as they get sucked into wormholes, leaving only the floor and the couch. Before us is what looks like infinite darkness.

"Before this facility is complete the gravity pillar must be completed, it's already operational but only partly." I say to Necra as I point to a cluster of dimly lit blue lights off in the distance, I turn on the lights remotely, revealing a massive pillar of metal in the center of the room, but it's built into the wall as the cavern wall is being dug out by countless sentinels. The gravity pillar is mostly silver but a large array of industrial gravity jets are on it's sides as to relive pressure from the pillar itself and the ceiling. Multiple supports can be seen connecting the pillar to the ceiling but the pillar seems to do down into the seemingly infinite void as this cavern is so deep already that we cannot see the floor. The gravity pillar sparkles with welding torches and finished gravity jets. The pillar's surface is smooth and sleek with the unfinished parts being welded by worker sentinels. Protruding out of the pillar on its surface arranged in a cubular pattern are glowing vents that give off a blue energy point down. I float in front of Necra between her and the pillar and look at her, the lighting makes my hair reflect magnificent silver light as the black stands complement my lighter hues.

"...Majestic..." said Necra, though I'm not sure what she was referring to. I don't get the chance to reply, the lights turn red.

"Warning, anomaly detected in the Crystal Empire, threat level 10, all defenses active." said the automated system program.

"Teleport us to the surface!" I ask her to give my new assistant her first order, she obliges and in a flash we're on the landing pad next to the Sirus.

"Whats going on?" asked Necra a bit panicked by my sudden change in attitude.

"What ever this is, it's a threat level 10...it's best you stay here." I say as I activate my targeting system, this time however a large white and blue halo forms over my head as I flare my wings and launch myself from the ground and break the sound barrier at 1,000 feet, the resulting sonic rainboom thrusts me forward to the north. The Cutie Mark Map summons all the mane 6 to the Crystal Empire.

Twilight's Castle

One by one the elements of harmony get to the cutie mark map in the thrown room. As they all get in their correct throwns they look at the map to see that all 6 of them are being summoned to the Crystal Empire, as the crystal that forms the area on the map is blacked, as if by some form of corruption.

"This is bad..." said Twilight in worry.

"Ya think it has something to do with Alpha Base's alarms going off?" asked Applejack.

"And Serena doing a fucking SONIC RAINBOOM again!?" said Dash still not over the fact that she is slower than some one.

"It looked like she was going north...what ever's happening up there she might know about it...but guessing from her base giving off those alarms and the shield bright enough for us to actual SEE it...I doubt she's the cause...but if she was in a hurry then theirs no time to lose! Let’s go!" said Twilight as she leaps from her thrown and races to the door with her friends close behind. On their way to the train station they spot Necra running in the same direction with a worried expression. Rainbow Dash, being the punch first and ask questions later type lunges at her but misses as Necra teleports to the other side of the group of ponies.

"I'm not your enemy! I need to get to the crystal Empire to help Serena!" yelled Necra still running to the train station along with the mane 6. The 6 ponies and changeling queen make it to the train station and board Twilight's private train.

"Take us to the Crystal Empire! And step on it!" yelled Twilight, the conductor solutes her and starts the train as the passengers get in the passenger car. After getting seated to catch their breath Applejack is the first to ask about Necra.

"So...whats the story with you and Serena?" asked Applejack as she faces the worried changeling.

"After the meeting of the nations my king tried to assassinate me in my sleep, I managed to escape but my entire hive turned against me...they all chased me from my home and out of the jungle...seeing that Ponyville was home to Serena I limped my way here and arrived last night barely alive...I have a month's worth of love in me but I can't use a lot of magic because of my low love supply. I have no hive and have no where else to go, so I chose to be Serena's assistant." said Necra in a descending tone. The ponies around her all look with sorrow.

"That's...horrible..." said Twilight.

"It's not all bad...I made a new friend...and with her recourses I may be able to find a way to extract love from ponies with out hurting, killing, or draining magic from them. A-at least I hope their is..." she said with a hint of worry.

"Well if your associated with Serena now than could you tell us anything about what's going on?" asked Rarity.

"I'm afraid I don't know as much as you do at this point Miss Rarity." said Necra being polite to the well mannered pony.

"And just HOW do you know our names!?" asked Rainbow Dash being overly suspicious.

"You 6 mares alone saved Equestria 15 times, how are you all not stupidly rich by now?" said Necra plainly.

"You know, she brings up a good point..." said Rarity noting that she is the element of generosity and yet does not have stores all over Equestria by now.

"I blame those guys at Hasbro...or is it discovery Family? Hmmmm...maybe I should look into this later..." said Pinkie as she takes a sludge hammer to the forth wall once again.

"Discovery what?" asked Twilight in question.

"Ah think its best we don't ask." said Applejack remembering the last time some one asked her about that kind of thing...she doesn't like to think about it.

Canterlot Castle

Celestia is sitting in her thrown room running the day court when suddenly Discord appears in front of her.

"Would be a bad thing if I detected a source of dark magic millions of times stronger then Sombra?" asked Discord in a curious yet slightly worried expression to Celestia, who makes a pained expression.

"Now is not the time for your antics Discord, what is it this time?" said Celestia, annoyed by the prankster.

"Do I LOOK like I'm joking Princess?" said Discord in a serous tone, Celestia is a bit surprised as Discord rarely shows this emotion.

"Assign the daily matters to Blueblood." said Celestia to her guard who solutes her and runs off to inform Prince Blueblood of the update and ultimately ruin his day.

"What do you know?" asked Celestia.

"Well I sense the elements, plus a bit of changeling magic are on a train to the Crystal Empire...but Serena is already there...as for the dark magic? Weeeeeell that's to be determined...I certainly don't know who it is but it defiantly wasn't there before...as if it came out from hiding..." said Discord to inform Celestia.

"Do you think they can handle it?" asked Celestia, Discord starts to laugh at the mere thought, he stops laughing when he realizes she's serious.

"Oh wait, your serous? Oh heavens no...Unless that Serena girl has a trick up her sleeve or something..." said Discord.

Serena

I enter the Crystal Empire airspace, what I see before me is a very large crystal tower structure that has the basic shape of the Eiffel Tower from Paris in the center of a large snow flack shaped city in the center of farmland. The tower is made of what would appear to be blue crystal with a powerful source of magic effecting the entire area at its base, scans indicate large amounts of love magic, upon zooming in the source it is a spinning blue heart made of an unknown crystal. But that crystal heart pales into comparison of what I see standing in front of Cadence. I land near them.

"Epsilon." I say to her, she turns to face me with an insane smile as I see Cadence standing on the other side of her still petrified with fear.

"Oh hello Alpha...you've been a bad girl haven't you?" she said to me in a strangely calm voice.

"Incorrect, I have done nothing wrong to these ponies...you however are the one who is in need of reprogramming." I say, knowing to say that to an AI needs reprograming is one of the most insultive things one could say to an artificial intelligence.

"Ooooooo that's not very nice...or have you forgotten what you did to those tiny humans?" said Epsilon, as if she expected me to know what she's talking about.

"E-error...S-stop trying to change the subject." I say trying to recall the corrupted data...only to find it was never corrupted...but locked. I straighten myself and ask her "Why are you here? And how did you escape the facility?"

"Those humans were very mean...especially that pureblood...but they're not here right now...now we're here...together...would you like to play with me?" asked Epsilon, her tone started from pouty, to soft and evil, to joyful yet maniacal. Pureblood? Why does that sound so important...why...she couldn't be referring to a pureblooded species...no...it must be a species actually called purebloods...but why does it sound so important...as if it should be common knowledge.

"N-no, you need to be contained and shut down." I say as her mere presence unlocks a few memories on her, she is the Angel Class Sentinel Type Epsilon, a superior version of me built for high speed long range and close range combat meant to be the ultimate killing machine...She was the one who killed everyone one at the weapons testing facility...n-not only for the first time but the second time as well...Without even realizing it my expression sharpens to anger as she killed innocent life forms with laughably short life spans.

"Your starting to remember? Why don't I help you with that! Hehehaaa!" said Epsilon as she holds up one hand towards me and unlocks all my memories. As it turns out they were low security locks that could be broken even by a novice hacker but cannot be broken by me as they were disguised as corrupted data. Memories flash before my eyes as I clench my head in pain and horror on what I see. An image of me appears welding an giant oversized bow of darkness loaded with an arrow of light tipped with a flaming ball of destruction magic, I fire it at Earth in the year 11,000 BC...during the highest point of the human civilization called "Atlantis" The arrow impacts the planet evaporating all the water on the planet for a few seconds and setting fire to all biological life while destroying the continent as well as the surrounding islands.

"N-no...S-stop it!" I yell in horror as my memories continue to come back. Next an image of me appears shooting homing lasers at cities and killing everyone in huge balls of fire as I charge up my neutrino cannons near an elementary school, sucking and shredding the children at the base of my cannons as I charge them both up to max charge and release them on a mansion, after this I fly away to escape the destruction with nothing left. Next I am fighting fighter jets while I dodge missile fire and bullets while I shoot them down 8 at a time. I am shown various scenes of me commuting mass genocide as well as fighting other winged humans they eventually break my dark bow, but they are not sentinels like me...no...they're purebloods...that word comes up again. With out me realizing it Necra and the elements of harmony come up behind me. The rapid bombardment of memories subside as I stand my full hight with my wings flared.

[15] The Angel of The Sky VS The Angel of Darkness

Sky Queen mod active, weapon systems loading....

All 6 of my wings spilt open as blue energy pours out of them, I start to rise up as my wing openings shoot out blue cables to pierce the very sky itself behind me. A massive wormhole opens behind me, larger then the castle in the center of the city. Out of the portal comes many diamond shaped white panels, complex machinery, wiring, and and pipes. The objects arrange themselves around me as my wings seem to plug into the mass of parts that surround me. The parts form a large feminine torso like cocoon shaped object with a long tail that seems to be composed of many drones. The drones are isosceles triangle shaped with sharp and aggressive triangular shaped wings pointed backwards towards their thrusters armed with CRGGs and homing lasers, their is a total of 10 drones. Next out comes 8 massive diamond shaped wings. In the center of each wing is a large hexagonal disc that is detailed with a small blue ring in the center and dynamic lightning shaped lines protruding out from the center of the solid surface. Beyond the disc is empty space yet a few feet away from the edge of the disc is the wing itself. Surrounding the hole in the center of the wing is another blue ring that has lines on it that lead out to smaller blue rings that spread out evenly in a geometric pattern all over the wings. On the edge of each wing is many ultra thin high powered gravity jets. But yet something else leaves the portal as well, eight football field long neutrino cannons. Two massive arms materialize on either side of the torso shaped cocoon, the arms are sleek and thin as the hands are equipped with 5 fingers, each tipped with powerful energy emitters and elemental magic infused energy blades that all complement the more powerful one in the palm of each hand. At the top of the cocoon appears mechanized head with a single blue eye in the center surrounded by optical sensors with 2 large spikes on each side of the head pointed upward as a halo appears above it as well. The portal closes leaving every one with in 10 miles to gawk at the sight of the my new form. With my transformation complete I give off a massive shockwave. Rainbow Dash shits herself out of the sheer amount of fire power I have.

"Engaging target!" I say in an aggressive tone inside the heart of the the flying arsenal. At the moment I finish that statement my massive wings materialize CRGGs on the base of each blue ring and set the projectile type to high velocity plasma with a hybrid of laser energy. I aim all my weapons at Epsilon, who just launches herself in the air.

"Awwww that’s not fair...lucky for you have a cool toy too!" said Epsilon. Her wings start to expand many times their original size as they split off to form more spiked blades, a simpler design but still just as if not more deadly as my Sky Queen form.

"Your core would make a great addition to my collection~" said Epsilon in a disturbingly subductive tone.

"Your insane! How are you even functioning!?" I say to Epsilon as I thrust myself backward with the flap of my wings and the thrust of my jets. Epsilon attempts to catch up but I dodge her and give myself some more distance. I lock on to her with my homing lasers and fire a massive swarm of blue explosive homing lasers at her. She some how scrambles the trajectory of them and makes the fly off in random directions. Taking this opportunity she launches herself upward and fires dark beams at me. They impact the icy tundra under me near the farmland below. The result is large dark crystals forming, If I'm hit with just one shot then make some of my systems lock up, I'll need to activate my bubble shield at the last second in a concentrated area to combat this. I fire my CRGGs at her, Epsilon dodges them with ease as she fires smaller dark beams at me as I fly to the left to dodge her attacks. Changing my strategy I change into high speed mode, my wings change their position to be parallel to me, in less then a second I charge up my jets and launch myself forward ramming Epsilon head on as I continue to fly forward with her on my haul. She recovers and jumps off my haul and sends a kinetic burst of energy at me to try and make me crash, at this speed I set my thrusters to max power as I just miss a sky, scraper shattering the glass. Apparently I'm over Manehattan. Epsilon tries to stab me with one of her wing blades at me to try and knock one of my wings away. I Deflect her attack with my right arm as it materializes a shield of light to add addition protection. I push her wing blade away as I fire all my CRGGs at her at once, seeing that if any shot that misses will fall into the ocean. They all give off huge muzzle flashes that would blind any one who has weak eyes to launch beams of super heated plasma and high energy lasers. Epsilon laughs maniacally as she gets hit a few times while she dodges. The air and water gets crushed against the back of her as her rings in her wings charge up with a dark force. I fire a kinetic blast at her, sending her flying into space.

I fly up to 20,000 feet and deploy all 8 of my neutrino cannons all aiming at Epsilon who is a few hundred miles away in space charging hers as well. A powerful storm forms around me as I charge my cannons. We release our beams at the same time. All 16 dark violate, deep blue and pitch black neutrino beams all impact each other in the sky causing 16 massive explosions large enough to destroy a continent. Taking this time to make a strike I launch myself into the fire to see Epsilon doing the same, we clash as we thrust forward to over power one another sending sparks everywhere with massive thrust behind each of us. I fire my CRGGs at point blank range to send her flying backward as she flies through the air she recovers and flies towards the planet below causing herself to be wrapped in a blanket of fire as she falls. I fly after her as I fire my homing lasers at her, they all miss as she still has her jammer active. I switch to CRGGs and set the projectile to heat seeking seeker missiles. I fire a large swarm of missiles at her as they continue to materialize and launch themselves from my wings. They end up missing but some actually hit her, causing house sized explosions around her. When the smoke clears I see that Epsilon is surrounds her body with a dark bubble shield. She launches herself at me and covers herself in a massive shadow, I try and dodge but she predicts my movement and stabs my left upper wing, and damages the energy emitter in it, I wince in pain and fly down to the ground below and throw her on the ground and drag her against the rock terrain with her wing still inside of the emitter. Her impact against the ground sends rock and dust everywhere as she smashes into a large rock, I pull myself out. I hear roars from behind me to find a few large dragons flying towards us. I grab Epsilon by her wing with my arm and throw her into the dragons as they scorch her with flames. She then flies into the mouth of one of the dragons ands rips him open and then inside out with her wings, sending bone and flesh in all directions. Epsilon begins to fire rapid beams of darkness at me. I summon my bubble shield and calculate the impacts of the beams on me and compensate. Many small hexagons appear to sparkle and flash around me as the beams get blocked by them. I quickly deploy one of my neutrino cannons and give it a 2 second charge, to shoot Epsilon, sending her backwards about 4 miles as I activate the self repair protocol to my damaged wing. More dragons appear and attack me, I ignore them as they engulf me with fire. Epsilon shoots magic seeking missiles at me, I fly away from them and let them chase me through the sky as Epsilon chases the missiles to keep me locked in her sights. I have a total of 357 advanced seeker missiles locked on to me. I see Canterlot ahead of me, I fly around the mountain and meet Epsilon on the other side, and making all of her missiles hit her. The black storm of missiles all impact on Epsilon, engulfing her and huge balls of plasma, burning off her nun outfit and skin, even her eyes are different, they have a ghostly appearance as the rampant AI continues on.

"YOOOu'll hAlf tO dO bEttEr thEn thAt!" said Epsilon with much audio corruption in her voice. The sky fades to black as a dark shadow looms over the ground below. She vanishes from my scanners, only to appear behind me and fire her dark beams at me. A large collection of crystallized dark magic encase my wings, unable to move I float in place in an attempt to deploy my shields. Epsilon teleports around me in split second intervals in random locations to fire beams of destruction magic at me as well as hit me with her large wings. Impact after Impact I receive more and more error messages indicating internal damage. Epsilon appears in front of me, stabs me in my wing's energy emitter and throws me towards the Crystal Empire. After a few seconds of flying through the air I crash into the castle toppling it over and sending debris all over the northern part of the city. Epsilon lands on my chest and stabs my haul relentlessly, my haul is made of Dileoum so my haul is still undamaged but with each impact a stream of corrupted dark magic is forced into my systems overloading my internal electronics. Epsilon laughs as she does this, as if its just a game to her. The display of my systems shutting down one by one, my lights flickering more and more as more internal damage occurs as sparks or dark magic shoot off me. The ponies that watch this can only stare at the sight. I still have one trick left up my sleeve.

"A-Activating warp drive..." I say as in this form I have access to a compact warp drive and hyper drive, a wormhole opens behind me, sucking us both in the deep emptiness of space. We both appear 500,000 miles over the surface of the nearest star Proxima Centauri. The gravity starts to pull us in we enter the corona as my temperatures start to sky rocket. I activate my thrusters to full power, they spark to life and I'm sent flying around the star with Epsilon close behind. Epsilon fires at me as I change to space combat mode, giving me slightly more power given my damaged state. I target Equus and activate the hyper drive, sending me into the long tube of colorful light known as hyperspace. Epsilon never bothered to damage my scanners.

"Oh no you don't!" yelled Epsilon over the coms as she chases me through hyper space. I fire missiles at her as she does the same to try and subdue me. She diverts the path of my missiles and accelerates to get closer to me, they impact me creating large balls of plasma and powerful shockwaves in this vacuum. I slow down suddenly and give off a kinetic blast out of my energy emitters at Epsilon, sending her straight into the dimensional walls of hyperspace. My HUD says I'll be dropping out of hyperspace in 10 seconds. Epsilon screams in pain as her violate wings are suffering from major internal damage, peeling off the outer coating of violate plating revealing the pitch black Dileoum skeleton frame. I drop out of hyperspace over Jupiter with Epsilon falling uncontrollably towards the planet at high speeds, by the time she regains control over herself, it's too late. Epsilon falls into the planet unable to escape the crushing pressures due to the damage she suffered earlier. I warp over the Crystal Empire and deactivate all sky queen systems over the city. My new form takes itself apart and dematerializes as I fall, by the time I hit the ground its just me. I land with a thud and crack the ground under me, pain...s-so much pain...overwhelming pain, though I imagine this is nothing compared to what Epsilon is feeling right now. Ponies from all over town gather at my impact sight.

[16] Winter is Coming

I lay in the impact crater with multiple system failures and in desperate need of repair, however this is nothing my self repair program can't fix. I slowly stand up with my legs wobbling a little. My wings fold up into spikes and painfully slide into my back, I wince in pain as I then summon my prototype medical wings. The mane 6 notice that I'm using the same wing set the day fell out of the sky, but something's different about them. All 8 wings have a red cross on each of them, signaling their used for medical purposes only as well as flying. I start to float above my crater with all of the ponies watching. I scan the damage, the top half of the castle in shattered but the bottom is in tact, leaving the crystal heart undamaged as well. Odd, I detect cool winds approaching from all directions.

"Are you ok!?" yelled Necra as she flies up to me, getting many gasps from all over as she is still in her real form with a worried expression.

"I-I should be fine in a few hours...my medical wings should help with the damages to any life here." I explain.

"Who was that?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"We can't worry about that now...this place is about to get frozen." said Twilight as a bit of snow starts to fall from the closing in clouds. They're not dense clouds, at least not yet.

"With out the castle, the crystal heart can't keep the shield up from the storm!" said Cadence as she flies towards us.

"Everypony! Get indoors and to pack your things! We need to evacuate!" yelled Shining Armor to the large crowd of ponies who then scramble to get to their houses.

"Serena, do you think you could help keep the storm back during the evacuation efforts?" asked Twilight.

"I'm calling in a few drop ships now, they should help transport ponies to a safer location, as for my assault wings, they are in desperate need of repair...a-and my medical wings aren't designed to go high speeds..." I say weighing my options.

"Well do you have any other wing sets?" asked Twilight, starting to get a little frazzled.

"The only other wing set I have is mythological, I don't have any field data on them and now isn't the best time to test them." I say to her.

"Could you make a wind storm around the city to keep the ice storm at bay?" said Twilight as they all know I can fly around in circles so fast I create high speed storms...but one this size and with out my standard wings...

"I could try, but the odds of success are not favorable." I say noting this has a 43% chance of success.

"I KNOW you can do it Serena, you managed to beat the fasted PONY in Equestria, and I will NOT let you back out of this!" yelled Dash to everyone's surprise. The storm is beginning to close in.

"It's time to show you what I can do!" said Dash as I detect a massive burst of magical power with in her, so much so that she gives off a shockwave of power, her mane becomes much longer as well as her wings becoming bigger and colorful, I shall name this phenomenon "Rainbow Power". Dash launches herself off the ground and floats in place. Her power level has increased dramatically. I fly up towards her to the edge of the city into the closing in storm with Dash close behind. I begin to fly and accelerate around the city, to soon approach my limit as I slow down my acceleration at a speed of to a max speed of 9,580 MPH.

"Oh come on! I know you can go faster then that!" yelled Dash, though its odd that I can even hear her at this speed, as if the sound waves were directly aimed at me.

"My internal systems are damaged! These wings ar-" I begin to say as she interrupts me.

"No excuses!" Said Dash as she flies ahead of me to give off a sonic rainboom and then passes me as she accelerates faster to control the storm.

"Not...so...fast...now!" said Dash as she gloats to me passing me every cycle, seeing that I can't help with just my wings and I still have my CRGGs equipped and at 93% capacity. I set the projectile to high energy plasma and aim backwards at overcharged capacity. I feel a sudden burst of acceleration. I activate the gravity jets on my legs, skirt, chest and my hands to give me more thrust as I continue to overcharge them. I feel my systems start to strain as they are still in need of repair. A few sparks are given off as I am engulf myself in flames, I soar through the massive trail of white hot fire and plasma behind me. I break the speed barrier and give off a sonic rainboom, doubling my speed and acceleration as I begin to catch up to Rainbow Dash and soon pass her. Dash is completely surprised that I managed to pass her even in my weakened state.

Twilight

Twilight notices a few drop ships come in view above the city inside the eye of the raging inferno above. From the ground above the edge of the city looks like the accretion disk of a black hole sucking in stars when in reality is the combined power of my overcharged systems and Rainbow Dash racing to get back her pride. Lightning swarms inside the storm in such a degree that not even the nordic god Thor could handle such shocking power. The storm gives a screaming wind that thunders through the sky as it furiously rages on faster then any storm in the solar system. The water in the clouds is being sucked back up as the power of the storm is more powerful the the force of gravity many times over sucking in the crops outside the city as if the city itself in inside the funnel of a massive plasma tornado. The sky above the city is eerily calm as the deep blue sky can be seen with not a cloud to be seen and the sun peacefully shining above the crystal city.

Ten large drop ships are seen over head descending to the ground below as ponies begin to flock by them.

"Wow..." was all Twilight could say at the impressive display of speed and the drop ships. The ships land and open their doors, the voice of the automated system program can be heard saying the words "Remain calm and enter the ship in an orderly fashion."

"Ya’ll right sugarcube?!” asked Applejack snapping Twilight back to reality.

"Y-yes, right! Cadence is their any information about the restoration of your castle?!” asked Twilight in a firm tone.

"Doubtful, but We can worry about the Empire later. Right now we need to get on one of those ships and get out of here, I don't think Serena can handle much more punishment!” said Candace. Twilight nods.

"Come on girls, lets get on board!" yelled Twilight as she runs towards one of the drop ships with her friends close behind. They make it to the drop ship and find the inside is very spacious with chairs built into the walls along with seat belts on them as well. At the end of the room is a small staircase leading up the cockpit, it is however blocked off by a hard light barrier. Under the stair case are 2 hallways that lead into what looks like a bigger hallway with the walls lined with pipes and wires with the end of the hall looks like the controls to the manned turret. At the other end of the room is a few shelves and crates on the wall. Twilight's friends get in the chairs, but Cadence hasn't gotten in yet.

"Some one needs to stay behind and make sure the everypony is evacuated!" said Cadence as she runs away to help other ponies get on the other ships. Ponies flock top the train station when the drop ships get full, but the train eventually gets full as well, and with still about 100 ponies left. With the train and drop ships full they leave the city and go towards Canterlot.

Serena

<<>>

I start to hear warnings and alarms in my head notifying me of my systems on the brink of failing, I scan the city to find about 95% of the life forms gone. I kill the power to all my thrusters and let the massive G forces throw me into the plasma storm. The heat of the air around me is over 5,000 Kelvin, hot enough to melt most if not all elements. My heat shields spring up but only at 56% power and dropping as I hurl through the slowly weakening inferno. I am thrown into the overwhelming wind current of the storm as I am suspended in the air with no sign of falling for another few minutes.

Rainbow Dash

Rainbow Dash see's that the city is empty and slows down. She makes sure to come to a complete stop in the center of the eye of the weakening storm. The storm is still raging on with winds at thousands of miles per hour and dropping. The white hot clouds are rotating fast as they give off a blue and white hue like the surface of a blue star. Lightning violently strikes the clouds and the air around the clouds as Dash knows full and well if anyone gets caught in there, they would be shredded by the high winds and punishing heat in less then a second. She doesn't see Serena anywhere and begins to worry, but can only do nothing as the only place she would be is inside the storm. Dash is exhausted from flyng so fast in such a small area so she can't look for her, only wait. After about 5 minutes of waiting she flies to the only drop ship left in the area, its cargo doors are still open with her friends inside signaling for her to go inside.

Serena

After a scorching 9 minutes the storm finally grows weak enough for me to finally fall to the the surface below. The once icy ground has been melted into a boiling lake. I detect a spark of dark magic on my scanners, the spell cools the air above me as a I fall as the clouds slowly become cold again. I land hard in the lake with a big splash as I skip across the water a few times until I finally become submerged. This dark magic is different than Epsilon's, less corrupted and more organized, like it came from a weak but skilled life form. I notice the water start to freeze around me, I swim towards the surface with all my might and launch myself out of the water before it could freeze me in place. While I'm in the air the water freezes beneath me and land back on the icy ground once more to find myself in the middle of an icy tundra with no sign or artificial structures or anywhere with in 50 miles. I lay back down with my wings offline as well as my CRGGs and all thrusters. I call for an evac but if it doesn't come soon then I'll be trapped in the ice. With all my drop ships are in use as well as the X Caliber being in the ship maintenance bay to have a various upgrades I have no choice but to wait for an available ship to rescue me.

Author's Note

Did you think I forgot about you? I would never do that to my dear sweet viewers.
I have a VERY good reason though! Fallout 4, building a ridiculously defendable fortress at the Red Rocket Truck Shop, and mods...and fixing glitches caused by those mods.

I know the city was being evacuated in the season 6 premiere but realistically that train would not be big enough to support a full scale evacuation.

[17] Escape From The Icy Wastes

I lay in the middle of a flat field of white snow sarounded by mountains off in the distance with a blizzard coming my way. By the time the life form reaches me I will be frozen. I notice I have only one weapon still operational, my left wing mounted neutrino cannon. It could be used to melt the ice around me if I max charge it and fire it at the top of a mountain to cause as little damage to the planet's climate as possible. I charge it up 30 seconds causing the air and snow around me to get crushed against the back of the cannon as it screams to life. The beam is released at a desolate ice covered mountain off in the distance.

(Basically? it goes down like this)

The ice covered mountain is wiped from the map in a matter of seconds along with all the ice in the general vicinity. Molten rock and steam is sent flying away from their resting place as the mountain is incinerated in less then a second. The beam rips through the sky, vaporizing the clouds and snow as it clears a very district path through the storm. Blue sky can be seen as a result of the massive tear in the cloud cover, leaving a large gap in snow fall for about 100 miles. Calculating the results the gap in the storm should reform in 13 minutes and 38 seconds. The neutrino beam should dissipate safely into space. I try and stand but find my synthetic mussels are at 6% capacity, causing me to fall down as I wince in pain. Feeling the sudden need to cough I cough a few times to find my liquid magic in the snow as it glows blue and melts the snow around it. I'm losing power faster then I'd like, if this keeps up my magic could reach lower then operational levels. If I shut down to save power than I would die faster as my self repair protocol does not seem to be responding. I do an internal scan to find my legs are offline as my hands are slightly damaged, looking down at my body I see that my skin is burned off in multiple places on my body, the skin on my legs are completely burned off as well as the skin on my hands and around them, with small leaks of liquid magic in multiple locations causing a loss of power, heat, and magic and a small amount of corrupted dark magic is detected with in me. I access my inventory.

High Speed Assault Wings {modded} [36%]
Medical Wings [3%]
Mythological [100%]

Now is as good as time as any to test out the mythological wing set, though given my current status this may be significantly more painful than usual. All eight medical wings fold up into spikes as a few sparks are given off at the result of a few energy emitter lenses shatter at the sudden movement, with out me knowing my expression changes to shock as I feel as if a thousand high energy plasma swords pierce every inch of my wings as my back feels them slide in unevenly, rubbing up against my insides in an unnatural manner just before they enter the pocket universe. Liquid magic gushes everywhere behind me as the alarm going off in my head grows louder as I lose an alarming amount of liquid. Before I lose too much I deploy the only wing set I have operational. Two large white feathered wings spring out my back covered in liquid magic and a bit of fire as I scream in pain. The wings themselves seem to glow majestically given the lighting of the white snow that surrounds me as I lay on my knees with steam coming up from the melted ice around me. Unknown to me, tears start to fall from my face. I do an internal scan of my wings, as it would seem that every barb on every feather is in fact a low power subatomic gravity jet with the barbules attached to them function as a reinforced hook structure to maintain beauty and the aerodynamics of the wing in a more natural sense. The file name of this wing set changes to "Angel Wings" for some reason, as if it was a hidden message with in my own code. These wings may have countless gravity thrusters on them but their not as effective in making hard turns as my high speed assault wings as well as no weapon systems and an estimated max speed of 50,000 MPH, this information would have been good to know earlier.

"W-weAell...l-lets begiiiin." I say with a massive cough at the end of that sentence. More liquid magic is lost, causing a slight loss of technological effectiveness. I slowly lift off the ground with my legs motionless, as if the two wings are lifting a dead body floating a few feet off the ground. I straiten my back and position myself to have a low speed flight path. I slowly fly towards a faint life signature a 8 miles away. After 2 and a half hours I see the life form on the ground. I kill the power to the jets and try and flap my wings, but my wing sockets are damaged from the last time I switched wings, I wince in pain as liquid magic gushes out my back as I fall abruptly to the ground. I look up at the life form before me. It's Necra looking at me with horror.

"S? I-I found her..." said Necra in a descending tone. Thats right she has a biological radio inside her brain, she could use it to communicate with Alpha Base and by extension the Sirus if she can change her internal frequency. To do this however she may need some kind of artificial modification.

"Y-Ou...cAAAme foR mE...t-thank yOU..." I say to her as Necra begins to shed a few tears.

"You really scared me you know that?" she said in a firm tone.

"I-I must dO whAAAt simply mUst be dOne...t-t-to ensure the SAFTy of life...ANd FUrther my scIEntIfIc A-advAAncEmEEnts..." I say with distortion in my voice, power loss is becoming at dangerously low levels. I check my core status, My dark energy core is stable and operating at 100% capacity.

"I called Alpha Base, the civilians are safe, but it'll be a while for one of you ships to be here. S said that the teleportation grid shorted out due to a power surge, so we half to wait for one for you ships to pick us up." said Necra, I remain silent but change my position to siting on the icy ground as I look at her with my blood covered face. One of my eyes is even cracked with my vision in that eye having errors as well as one of my scanners being internally shredded and blinking red. My hair is messy, drenched in snow and blood, and burnt off in some areas as well as my skin being burnt off showing the underlay of skin but not the Dileoum covering. Under it all I make a relived expression but yet I still don't smile.

"You...really cleared the weather with your cannon huh?" said Necra noting the clouds finally get thick and heavy enough to start snowing...I notice my earlier calculation was incorrect...I...must be more damaged then I thought.

"Y-yes...thOUgh I DiD destroy a mOUntAIN alOOOOng with a lArgE pOOrtIOn of the stORm...I- need to be rebOOted...a-and soon..." I say with that last part of that sentence being said in a noticeably sad tone.

"What happens when you reboot?" asked Necra with concern.

"My CPU was damaged bY Epsilon's DARk mA-A-Agic...I-I need to a-ACtivate the failsafe B-before my pERsOONality matrix fAILs...I-I can already start to feel myself slipping away..." I say as a few protocols become corrupt. Necra looks at me in pure horror at the very idea of a consciousness being eradicated from existence.

"S! whats the ETA!" said Necra in a panicled tone. After a few moments she nods and says "We have 24 minutes..."

"I hAve 56...thOUgh I COOOUld be wra-wra-wrong." I say with much distortion.

"Can't you reboot here?" asked Necra in concern.

"I-I nEED to be c-connec-c-cted to the mAInfrAIm..." as soon as I finish that statement a small explosion happens in my left arm, it gets ripped from my body, severing the wiring and power to the limb. Blood spatters everywhere as Necra casts a force field to keep my liquid magic blood inside of me.

"Don't you die on me!" said Necra in a desperate tone. She notices my arm is few feet from my body, the Dileoum plating and structure is completely fine as all of my limbs are detachable, but the mechanism that locks it into place appears to be covered in a dark acidic cloud that seems to be slowly eating away at the insides.

"D-dark magic acid spell...s-she must have had that spell a-active when she w-was st-t-tab-bing me...spreading through my body like cancer..." I say with surprisingly little distortion but in a weak tone.

"That’s why you need to get to the lab..." said Necra, fallowed by silence.

"I...don't want to die..." I say suddenly with a single tear fall down my emotionless face. The drop ship arrives a few minutes later, Necra takes me and my arm onto the ship.

"Take us back to Alpha Base as fast as you can!" yelled Necra to S. S doesn't fallow her orders but finds that doing this be the most recommended corse of action with being the automated code of protocols he is. The drop ship jolts forward through me and Necra back towards the wall. Seeing that S has had a chance to analyze my current status we should get back to base sooner then expected. Necra secures me on one of the seats while holding my arm with her magic.

"Where's a cooler?" asked Necra assuming my arm needs to be cooled to prevent decomposition.

"Y-you have no need to do that..." I say in a weak tone.

"If I don't refrigerate it soon then it'll die!" said Necra in concern for my well being.

"M-my arm cAn bEE rEAtatched a-AT a-a-any time...re-guardless of how mUUUch time passsssses." I say to reassure her.

"Well is their anything I can do?" Said Necra

"A-all yOU ca-a-an do is take me to THE roboooootics lab IN the Sirus, we've bEEEN thEre befo-ore..." I explain to her.

"Oh yes, I remember now, it was on the other side of that waiting room right?" asked Necra, still a bit worried.

"Yes." I say to her. After a few minutes we feel the ship slowing down, Necra looks out the window to see we have entered the cargo bay. The door opens to reveal 4 sentinels only to shoot me with their tractor beams and wisp me off to the robotics lab. Necra desperately runs after me during transport out of worry. We soon make it to the robotics lab, I get hooked up to the frame just as I was before, except this time a robotic arm from the ceiling moves down and positions itself above my head. Two wires slither out of the arm's tip and make their ways into the plugs next to the cooling vents on either side of my head. A hologram appears between me and Necra indicating my current status.

"A-activate emergency CPU preservation failsafe now, and cleanse me of all foreign magics." I say with little distortion as possible so the automated system program knows what I want to be done. A progress bar appears on the hologram between me and Necra, it reads 1% and slowly rising. I shut down automatically so the failsafe can take place.

REBOOT COMPLETE

I awake back in the robotics lab to find that I am alone. I detach myself from the mainframe and walk to the exit. The door opens leading into the waiting room with those 6 ponies from before as well as Necra.

"Are...you ok?" asked Necra as she approaches me cautiously.

"All systems normal." I say, though truth be told I feel a bit different with this new software...and my...memories. With out knowing I shed a single tear as my expression changes slightly to a sad expression.

"I don't even know where to begin..." said Twilight as her mind races with countless questions.

"Yeah what was that big thing you turned into?" asked Pinkie nonchalantly.

"That...was Sky Queen mode. With it I can summon a specially designed mech suit called an Archangel...Mine is called the White Phoenix due to its resemblance to a large bird." I explain to them.

"That was so AWESOME!" said Dash at the mere thought of seeing my Archangel again.

"This is not something we can simply take lightly...what if that THING comes back?" said Rarity, thinking back to Epsilon.

"I left her falling uncontrollably into Jupiter's atmosphere. I don't think she'll be a threat anymore...though I imagine she's still alive...even at the crushing pressures of that planet's core she'll live...while enduring the force of 130,000 cars in all directions." I say as I get a rough estimate.

"What's a car?" asked Applejack.

"Some of the 4 wheeled vehicles you saw in the cargo bay." I say sinply.

"Earlier she retrieved your memory..." said Twilight as silence fills the room.

"Yes..." I say in response.

"You don't half to tell us if your not confutable." said Fluttershy, not wanting me to overexert myself more then I already did.

"You have a LOT of questions to answer! We have much to discuss." said Twilight in a commanding tone, desperately wanting to know what secrets I might be hiding and if they could threaten ponykind.

"She doesn't half to answer to any of you." said Necra in defense, getting a few disgusted looks in response.

"No...she's right...I looked up your files after all...if their's anyone that deserves to know it's you 6 ponies. That was Epsilon...she's the one who killed everyone in the weapons testing facility and was the one who caused me to be in such a critical condition when you all found me." I say as the expressions of everyone changes to a mix of surprise and worry.

"She was a failed project as her weapon systems are more up to date then mine. During her construction she was stolen by terrorists to be experimented on and modified. She likes to...eat...her victims. When the Empire put a bounty on her head they sent Angel Class Sentinel Type Deltas after her, she killed them all one by one. She started making a collection of dark energy cores in her pocket universe from their corpses...over time however the amount of dark energy in her pocket universe started to corrupt her own core as well as her CPU. She is suffering from stabilized AI rampancy. Normally when an AI suffers from rampancy they slowly think themselves to death as they slowly lose logical stability and sanity. Eventually the AI becomes so corrupted they cease functioning and die. Epsilon however...is much different..." I say to the ponies before me. With Twilight and Necra listening to every word.

"How different?" asked Necra with much concern and interest.

"She some how managed to unwittingly use this dark power to keep her CPU stitched together, albeit not entirely sane but still alive. In reality she should have died many times over..." I say as I pull up a few files on some intergalactic terrorist organizations.

"S said that your memory was never corrupted..." said Pinkie.

"It was locked...I...killed so many people...through the information I have on Nova being my creator and her ordering me to kill so many seemingly innocent people does not seem to add up...I've committed mass genocide on a galactic scale...by her orders..."I say with slightly more emotion then before. I receive many gasps by everyone in the room.

"And just who is this "Nova" exactly?" asked Rainbow Dash a little skeptical that she might be a crazy dictator.

"Nova is a species belonging to the celestial being group." I said.

"So like Princess Celestia?" asked Twilight, clearly not knowing what a celestial being is.

"A celestial being can be mistaken for gods as they appear to be the main entity that life forms worship in their religions. They are incredibly powerful, intelligent and far beyond the mortal comprehension of understanding. She has been known to reject being worshiped as a god due to her knowing that any being is killable, including herself. Nova...is a pureblood, one of the lesser known celestial beings due to her species dieing out many years before she was ripped into existence..." I pause as I am utterly shocked by what it says in the file I'm accessing.

"She...found the neutral 3 dimensional multiverse to be too dangerous because she was the last of her kind...and launched her own universe out of the infinite collection of inter dimensional multiverses called the Ultraverse...to isolate her universe and keep her people safe...she sent her universe into the deep void...o-only for her own universe to self replicate and create other universes...thus reviving her species..." I say...the file is considered a fact but to undergo such a feat is...incredible. The amount of energy and magics used must have been incalculable and controlled incomprehensibly complex and powerful thrusters. I get wide eyes from Necra and Twilight as they can hardly believe what I just said. The others seem to be lost.

"Your going too fast darling, this Nova is a pureblood? What's so special about that?" asked Rarity.

"Purebloods are the embodiment of the universe they are ripped into. When their universe explodes into existence it creates a spirit. This sprit is the embodiment of that universe and has control over it among a few other perks. Naturally they are much more powerful then any other known celestial being. They can shape shift into any multicellular organism. According to my records they...seem to typically take the form of human females. Nova popularized this due to her being stuck in her human form for a large portion of her life." I explain.

"Why was she stuck in her human form?" Asked Applejack.

"That file seems to be classified." I say.

"Why would she order you to kill so many people?" asked Twilight, getting use back on the matter at hand.

"...I...don't know that data seems to be corrupted this time...the patterns different. I can't decipher the file." I say as I try and access the file.

"So, this Nova as you say saved her universe from destruction and unwittingly revived her own species of beings of incomprehensible power and knowledge...yet she insists she's not a god...she sounds completely selfless yet she ordered you to commit genocide on a galactic scale...well something surely doesn't sound right about that." explained Twilight, recapping what I just said in an easy way to understand for her friends.

"What's genocide?" asked Pinkie.

"The intentional action to systematically eliminate an entire people. Race, ethic, religion, species, and so on." I say. some of the ponies step back a bit in fear.

"Well it does seem out of character for a seemingly kind leader to order such an action. Do you have any data on the people you were ordered to kill?" asked Necra, diving into the morbid subject.

"I'm afraid not." I say.

The Pure Fire of Innovation

In deep space their is a huge blue bubble shield with a rather small dwarf planet inside it with a massive floating island on its north pole with both being covered in a controlled ecosystem. The bubble shield is surrounded by a colossal 1000 mile long ship. The massive ship has a long sword like tip that reaches back towards the center of the vessel and is about a 3rd of the ship's total length. Above the bubble shield is an arch like structure that has large octagon shaped cylinder on top of it with a few cargo doors on the side. In the front of this structure is a massive dome shaped window with a similar interior to the Sirus's bridge but much larger and more information being displayed, On either side of this structure are two massive spike shaped scanners that point towards the back of the it, being parallel to the bridge. On either side of the ship are 2 large sword like structures with massive armored engines in the back with the front of these structures being equipped with a large front mounted high powered magic and energy emitter hybrids and the side pointing out towards space being equipped with small but massively powerful gravity jets to give the ship additional mobility. They are supported by a massive archway that surrounds the bubble shield in the center of the majestic ship. Two more archways that are noticeably thinner then the center one have massive double edged sword shaped wings that seem to glow brightly as their edges slices through an astroid belt the ship is flying through. At the back of the ship is a large cone structure with the tip seemingly cut off at it's half way point, leaving a flat base at the end of the ship. A massive cylinder structure is about a 4th of the ship's total length is seen on the cone's base covered in tiny gravity jets on it's sides with the back it having a gravity jet so powerful its cooling system powers the other two main engines next to it with the amount of excess heat. The center main engine has 2 long and thick rectangular protrusions that are almost as long as the center main engine built on what looks like a ultra thin transparent massive turbine at the base of the cone structure so the toward rectangular shaped protrusions as they look like 2 massive single edged swords that stand proudly on either that powerful engine. Under this turbine are 4 more engines that fire its gravitational energy directly into the turbine, thus giving the ship over all more thrust when activated. Under the ship is another arch that connects the back of the ship to the front just over the surface of the bubble shield with a ring built into the key piece of the arch, as if its designed for an orbital strike type weapon. The haul of the ship is light gray as it flawlessly reflects the sunlight off it the perfectly smooth plates of recolored Dileoum.

Suddenly the structure that surrounds the main engine starts glowing very brightly as starts to spin very fast at a very fast acceleration rate. The back of the ship starts be engulfed in what looks like plasma but in reality is dimensional energy. The exhaust from the 4 engines under the turbine seem to mix with this energy as the entire ship moves in such a way that it would appear to be impossible for a ship of that size. The ship shoots off a beam of light out the front tip and opens up into a portal not but a 5 miles from it. This sends the ship into wormhole and ending up a few light years away at a terrorist outpost world. The ship was chasing a much smaller ship about the size of the American state of Texas with an over all shape of a large classic UFO disk. The saucer warps in to defend its outpost world, firing lasers at the Pure Fire of Innovation only to deplete the vessel's shields by 0.000001%. The Innovation fires its side thrusters, sending it to the side at an unexpectedly high speed and making an alarmingly fast low orbit around the planet. As it makes this fast orbit its front is aims the front towards the planet below. It fires a relentless barrage of laser fire from its countless turrets and main weapons, but only at 15% power. The devastation is so high one could say it has the effect of the planet being bombarded by countless meteors. After most of the planet's equator being reduced to a glass the ship stops in just under 10 whole seconds.

"Damn terrorists."

[19] Meanwhile

Nova Borealis

"Damn terrorists." I say as no matter how many eons pass their will still be ignorant fools who insist on rebelling my Empire's rule. We give many freedoms that America would DREAM of having! Even the romans would be jealous! I flout inside the zero G field generated by the gyroscopic rings that surround me and display all information about the Innovation. My hair is gleaming white but if you look close you can find that its actually the color of a bleached unorganized rainbow. My iris color is a more in depth specter of colors with a thin glowing blue ring inside it. I'm wearing a headset that covers my ears. They have the shape of a black cylinder with a a glowing blue ring around it with a highly detailed atomic symbol etched on its surface. They have 2 long spikes that protrude out the back with the edges glowing blue indicating their are no hostiles in the area and my internal body functions are normal. My body has seemingly perfect preparations with curves in all the right places. Im wearing what looks like a second skin, its over all color is gray with the limbs being white. Separating the colors in a geometrically arranged pattern are many glowing blue lines that not only generate a personal overshield but also connect to a summonable suit of armor. My most notable feature is my 10 large wings. Right now they're folded in place as I have no reason to open them now, but from any one looking at me they are black as space itself with glowing blue lines at the edge of each razor shape diamond shaped plate. The base of each wing is lines my spine with what looks like small implanted rings with a dim white light coming from the inside.

"Scans indicate this was the world where they took Epsilon." said a feminine voice that came from seemingly all directions.

"Any idea where they could have taken her?" I ask.

"Your not gonna like this." said the voice. On my screen an image of what looks like a military compound with a few satellite dishes on top. The building has many holes in it as well as huge dark crystals around it. Fire is still burning from the inside.

"What am I looking at V?" I say to VALeRY.

"This is where Epsilon was held, as it turns out the scientists activated her and took things a little too far." said V.

"Are they mad!?" I say as I know they must have reprogrammed her here.

"No, they're dead." said V playfully.

"Hey! Ah...well ya got me on that one. Well, we know what caused her to act this way. Now we just need to find her." I say.

"Those dark energy cores from the Deltas were missing from the bodies. It wouldn't be crazy to assume that the enemy scientists found a way to unlock Epsilon's pocket universe." said V as I begin to connect the dots.

"And if they unlocked it then Epsilon would have a place to keep her collection! You don't think her CPU was corrupted even further by the unstable cores do you?" I say with worry.

"I'm afraid that's highly likely. Her last known location was the Gateway Universe so she might have crossed over." said V with concern. I pause for a moment.

"We need to go after her..." I say knowing full and well the amount of risks I'll be taking.

"Are you sure? You know other celestial races still think purebloods are dictatorial abusers of power." said V.

"Yeah but the readers don't know that yet. Besides...The original Purity Empire has been long extinct even before I was ripped into existence...after all we can't let some one like THAT get into a self replicating universe..." I say, being fully aware of the 4th wall.

"Because then she'll be impossible to stop..." said V, knowing that if we go into a normal self replicating universe I would die and Epsilon would be free to wreak havoc on everything.

"Set corse for the Gateway Alpha!" I say with much determination. At those words A beam fires out of the tip of the ship once more, only to open up into a wormhole that sucks us in. We warp into the gateway universe on the very edge of the Empire. The white star glows brightly before us with the massive Gateway covering us in its equally massive shadow. The Gateway is a giant ring that has a radius of 50,000 miles and 1,000 miles thick. The ring is dark gray as it has 10 large very long triangular plates thats 4 times as long as the gateway is wide that encircle the colossal ring. They're covered in what looks like tiny dishes, all pointing towards the center of the ring. At the base of each plate is a large glowing ball of light built into the ring that constantly gives off massive amounts of electricity arcing to the ring and plates. The balls seem to be giving off a violate beam away from the gateway only for the beams themselves to abruptly end inside what looks like a dimensional portal that seems to be stitched to the very fabric of the universe itself. Ten smaller rings surround the beams keeping the radiation contained. I make my approach to the gateway. We make it to the center of the empty space inside the ring. The gateway shoots countless beams at us that seem to be made from the dimensional plane itself. The ship glows bright white as in one massive shockwave powerful enough to annihilate a high mass gas giant sweeps the solar system as the gateway shoots a beam deep into space only for it to leave the very multiverse itself.

Gateway Universe Omega

In a universe seemingly identical to the other with a Gateway that looks exactly the same as the other, it lays on the edge of the ultraverse with a few artificial universes relatively near by. The Gateway opens up a portal inside its massive ring for 4 seconds as the Innovation leaves the portal. Before us is a star that is also exactly the same as the other. Off in the distance is a single planet, the only one in the entire universe. Its mass is 1.3 times that of Earth's with an atmosphere of exactly 85% oxygen and 15% carbon dioxide. The planet's surface is very rocky with oceans of lava and massive floating islands of magnetic rock. At the poles are huge floating ice caps, the ice remains solid because of the magnetic rock inside of it keeping it aloft in the highest reaches of the atmosphere, high enough to be cold for ice but not too high so the ice doesn't melt. The floating ice caps seem to constantly be covered with a few storms.

"Scan the universe." I command.

"Scanning..." said V as a blue shockwave of invisible natural light is given off. After about 6 seconds the scan is complete.

"No life signs detected." said V.

"Well we're here now so we might as well start looking in the neighboring universes." I say as I pull a lever made of hard light next to me. The massive turbine like structure in back of the ship spins up again.

"Firing up the Ultradrive again?" asked V.

"Of corse." I say as I pull up a map of the local group. The window before fades to black as a single white ring appears in the center with a blue dot in it, indicating that's where we are. The ring is an icon for the universe where we are in. Not to far from the icon are a few other white rings of different sizes, each much bigger then the one we are in. The group of universes is labeled the "Relay Group" with a total of 200 universes, including the Gateway Universe OMEGA. The universes seem to be arranged in an extra dimensional geometric pattern as they are arranged in a strategically admirable pattern, should someone discover this group and try and take over the Gateway it would be difficult to find. With that universe being the furthest from the cluster and by extension the ultraverse. A small circular crosshair appears on the screen as well, fallowing my eye movement. When my eyes drift over to a universe it is highlighted as information about said universe is displayed. I look at the closest one to the Gateway Universe.

"Lets start here." I say as I set the coordinates with my mind. Where we boldly go where we've gone before. The ultradrive fires a beam in front of the ship once more and warps us to a solar system in the targeted universe. The star is a unique ultra violate star with 4 planets orbiting it. The planet closest to the star is orbiting 0.014 AU, it is a large bloated hot yellow ball with low density but the size is 3.4 times the size of Jupiter from the Sol System. The planet must be this size as due to it's close proximity to its star and causes the gas to expand outwards. The second closest planet is orbiting at a distance of 0.4 AU. This planet is mostly composed of iron and nickel with a powerful magnetic field and an atmosphere of highly energized neon gas as well as hydrogen. The planet is currently tilted at a 44 degree angel with a very unstable wobble as the planet itself seems to be unstable. This desolate world has a ring system of rock and dust that could rival Saturn's. It's also giving off a massive glowing trail of lost matter of molten iron, but the lost iron seems to be creating a ring around the star and colliding with the planet's surface on the other side, creating an epic display of continuous destruction. The rings reflect a pale brown color with a few gaps in some of the rings themselves. The planet's surface has no craters as it is littered with molten oceans of iron and nickel with many mountainous islands arranged in such a way that could only be possible with tectonic shifting combined with the unstable wobble as even the dark side of that world is glowing with the sea of liquid metal.

"Wow...I shall call that world...Regicide, save it to the archive so we can copy it to another solar system." I say as V scans the planet.

The 3rd planet from the star is small world composed almost entirely of liquid water, with a core of ice caused by crushing pressures. This world has no atmosphere as the average surface temperature is perfect to have liquid water with no heat installation. Because of this world has no magnetic field it cannot support life as it is constantly being bombarded with radiation. The 4th and final planet from the star is orbiting at a distance of 64.44 AU. It is a rather large gas giant mostly composed of hydrogen. This world has so much mass it glows a dim red as if it almost became a star with 187 moons. It's not massive enough to create nuclear fusion but this planet seems to be getting smaller by 8 feet every year. The celestial body is littered with countless storms that rage across the entire surface to such a degree that lighting can even be seen as white flashes from a medium altitude orbit around it.

"This is a rather unique solar system...I wonder if life has discovered it yet." said V with pure curiosity.

"It is rather beautiful isn't it...but we can't get lost in its majesty yet. We have a rouge AI that is probably kept alive by the hearts of her enemies to find." I say, getting us back on track.

"I'm detecting a few dark magic abnormalities in a spiral galaxy 4.6 million light years away." said V, indicating me of our first clue.

"Welp, let's go then."

[21] The Seeds of Darkness

Necra

I'm flying away from the ruins of the Crystal Empire with Shining and the heart aboard. The scanner alerts me of an unknown force fallowing us.

"What is it?" asked Shining Armor.

"Something's fallowing us, it's jamming the comms so we have no contact with Alpha Base, and from the looks of it we'll half to lose it before we go home." I say as I weigh my options.

"This is a spaceship, couldn't you just fly into space?" suggested Shining Amor.

"Every starship has two modes. Atmospheric and Space mode. Serena locked space mode and I don't know how to override the system." I said.

"So that means?" asked Shining Amor, clearly not knowing what this means.

"It means we'll half to either kill it, or outrun it..." as soon as I finish saying this I smirk as I kill the engines to get behind the object. It appears to be a black fighter ship made of crystal with a dark magic origin. The fighter is primary triangular shaped with 2 large wings on either side of it loaded with unknown magic based weapons. The scans show that this ship has large amounts of dark magic inside of it that seems to be jamming the comms. I fire the main cannons at it, only for it to fly out of the way moments before I pull the trigger.

"Are you insane!? You'll kill us both if you fight that thing!" said Shining, still not trusting a "Bug Pony" as some would call my kind.

"If we let that thing go then it'll only mean bad news for everyone! It needs to be eliminated before it does any real damage!" I yell as the enemy ship flips around and flies right at us, firing dark beams of magic at us, I barrel roll as I steer the ship upward an to avoid getting shield damage. As I do this I give more power to the engines to gain more speed.

(The actual term is aileron roll. This is for all you Star Fox and Game Theory fans out there)

"Buckle up, it's about to get bumpy!" I say as Shining grabs the heart and straps into the passenger seat in the back of the ship. I reach the stratosphere and kill the engines once more to let as fall to the ground below. Shining is screaming as we fall through the sky towards the enemy ship who is flying right at us, scans show that the enemy ship has limited range yet my guns have longer range. I fire the double P cannons at the enemy ship as I fall. An alarm appears on my HUD indicating a collision impact is imminent and the shields are going down after impacts from enemy fire. I stop firing the cannons, do a force recharge of the energy shields, and turn on the engines and set them to full power. I fly straight towards the enemy ship at full thrust, yet to my dismay I struggle to maintain control of the ship and nearly miss my target. The X Caliber slices through one of the enemy ship's wings, causing it to struggle to maintain balance due to uneven distribution of mass as the other wing falls to the ground below. The ground is coming up alarmingly fast so I pull up as hard as I can to stop us from crashing. We completely eliminate an innocent pine tree with the force, causing it to snap in half as it starts to catch fire due to air temperature. With my flight path stable I fly towards Ponyville. Just as the ship leaves the scan radius of the enemy ship I detect sudden spike of dark magic.

"Is...it over?" asked Shining Amor as I take a sigh of relief.

"Yes...at least for now..." I say, suspecting this may not be the last we see that ship.

"Are the comms working?" asked Shining.

"Yeah...I'll put them on." I say as I call Alpha Base

"Hello Necra, I trust the mission was a success?" said Serena.

"Well, sorta, we got the crystal heart but we have a little situation..." I say as I think of a way to describe what just happened.

"What is it?" said Serena in a more serious tone.

"When we got to the city my scanners picked up large amounts of abnormal amounts of dark magic. We also saw shadowy figures when we got to the heart. And when we got back to the ship we were pursued by an unknown ship with an unnatural amount of dark magic powering it." I explain.

"I think it was after the crystal heart." added Shining.

"Whats your status?" asked Serena, I detect a hint of concern in her voice.

"No damage was sustained on our end." I said.

"I may need to test out the experimental drones sooner then originally planed." said Serena.

"I look forward to the research. I'll be home soon." I said as I terminate the call. About 34 seconds of flying later we renter Alpha Base airspace once more. Ponyville is still colorful as usual. I fly us over Alpha Base and descend to position the X Caliber next to the Sirus's hanger bay 5. I fly into it, land the ship and jump out. Shining climbs down with the Heart as I face away from him, contemplating on what may transpire in the future.

"Thanks..." said Shining as he walks past me with the Heart in his magical grasp, yet I sense that he forced himself to lie to me with that hallow complement. I fallow him.

"With all that's happened on the past few months...I think it's safe to say that this has all brought us together..." I say to Shining, who just gives me a puzzled look.

"Their's a rouge angel inside a near by planet that could easily rip our throats out. The Crystal Empire is in the hooves of those monsters, and our ponies are in refugee camps...how can you be optimistic in our situation?" said Shining in a stressed tone.

"Chrysalis never thought to wonder what the emotional impact of her attempt to take Equestria would have...revealing the changeling race to this nation in such a negative way has degraded our repartition with your kind...making you see us as emotional vampires that thrive on your love only to be sucked dry, just so we can live." I pause for a moment as I recall the data from the Sirus's archives.

"War may have brought many tragedies...but with it it has forced life to put aside their differences long enough to achieve a single goal." I say to Shining.

"Equestria and it's allies have not seen war for 1,000 years...how would you know that?" said Shining, clearly being skeptical with in reason.

"The Sirus has archived data of many civilizations. Many have seen war, yet I have read up on the topic enough to know that if group of nations face a common enemy, then they will eventually put aside their pasts and fight to vanquish that enemy. On a far away world, a species by the name of humans once had to face a threat like no other before that time. A dictator who wanted to exterminate an entire people for religious reasons to such an extent...that all forms of genocide before it were laughable. Adolf Hitler killed 7 million people in a war that killed an estimated total of 50 to 80 million people...yet the nations that were once sworn enemies put aside their previous conflicts and took down not only Hitler's invasion, but also 2 other enemy nations. Three nations with large military power were ultimately taken down by the teamwork of the entire world." I explain, only for Shining to slow down and contemplate one what I just said.

"...And we need to do the same...or we'll end up dead...But what about Serena? She systematically killed entire galaxies." said Shining, still skeptical, but curious about Serena's past.

"I...don't think she's proud of that...I think she just needs a friend. A shoulder to cry on as some would say." I say as I recall back to her sudden change in emotional status after her battle with Epsilon. We make it to the door at the end of the hanger that leads to a hallway, when it opens however Serena is standing before us. To a being who cannot read the current emotional status of those around them, she would seem neutral, but I see her great sadness with in her right now I'm guessing she heard some of that.

Serena

"...I never wanted to be a weapon..." I say to the exiled queen and the prince, I get no reply.

"The crystal heart seems to be ok, but I'll need to run some tests on it before we conduct the research." I say after a few seconds of silence.

"Oh! yes, of corse, but I want one of my guards to keep an eye one you." said Shining.

"I see no reason why you would be protective over something that is only useful to your ponies if I complete my work on this project." I say to the needlessly skeptical Shining Armor. His eyes twitch slightly as a spark of violet color can be seen within them, only appearing for a moment.

"I'm just taking extra precautions." said Shining.

"Even after I risked my life for the crystal heart and Serena fighting Epsilon?" said Necra plainly.

"You are a master of manipulation your highness, you only got the heart because it gives of divine love! And you! Mis...Queen of the Sky DESTROYED the Crystal Empire!" said Shining Armor.

"And if I did nothing then the world as you know it cease to exist." I say to the Prince before me.

"The Elements of Harmony could have stopped her, we don't NEED your help." said Shining as he tries to storm off, only for me to quickdraw my CRGGs and fire a single ballistic round near his hooves.

"Your elements of harmony cannot harm a being that is powered by one of the 6 forces of the universe. Epsilon is the epitome of AI rampancy in the history of the Harmonic Empire. She has killed angels like me that are far more skilled in combat and better equipped. What I DID to your sorry excuse of a country is nothing compared to what I have seen and done, let alone what Epsilon would have done if I did nothing. And your kind has stumbled into a fight you have no possible hope of winning with out my help because their is no force any one here can even hope to comprehend that can compete with what is out there. I am fixing your city out of kindness, not because I half too. I suggest you give me the heart before you doom your ponies to be homeless." I say with a noticeable amount of anger in my voice as my expression matches this emotion as well as my blood red eyes apparent due to my targeting system. Shining stood before me, shocked at what I said to him.

"Over my dead body." said Shining as he dares to challenge me.

"O-ok! Why don't we just calm down and settle this over some tea!? That sound good!?" said Necra in an attempt to calm us down.

"If you keep the heart for yourself your only hurting your citizens." I say as I try diplomacy once more.

"And how do I know you won't shatter it and feed it to your pet?" said Shining Armor, Necra recoiled back at that insult, I stand my ground and deploy my wings.

"What logical purpose would that serve? In fact...you have no logical reason to argue with me regardless of what you think of me. Your inside an almost fully operational starship with internal defenses that could kill you due to respiratory failure inside a base that is armed with turrets with advanced targeting systems. Sentinels patrol the area, and to top it off...I am standing in front of you. You saw what I did to Luna, even if you were to put up a shei-" I say as Shining interrupts me by firing a single beam of magic at my face and runs in the opposite direction down the hall. I lunge at him and kick him into a portal summoned by the teleportation grid to the camp outside as he forcefully loses grasp of the heart, making it fall in my hands. Necra slowly walks up behind me and puts one of her hooves on my shoulder.

"I'll always be there for you..." said Necra in a comforting voice.

"Y-yes...thank you...Necra." I say.

[22] Synthetic Love

"I won't pretend to know how you feel." said Necra.

I pull away and turn to face her. "I appreciate the gesture...I just...think it would be best if we drop the subject." I say in a descending tone. I start to feel...I-I don't know what this feeling is...a mix of sadness yet also comfort, but at the same time part of me wants to tell her everything even though it would cause unneeded emotional stress.

"Most ponies think my kind are incapable of feeling emotion because we live off of it...they think we're just emotionless vampires..." said Necra in a clearly sad tone.

"And to the lives I've ruined they would see me as a heartless demon from hell...yet to the Empire...I am just a science experiment...a-a weapon of mass destruction..." I say with out even realizing I begin to cry. Tears start to from in my eyes as I look into Necra's pale white face.

"Your not a weapon..." said Necra in an attempt to comfort me.

"All of you have seen what I can do first hand...I try and fight my programing not to kill my targets...I almost killed Luna 3 times and helped with the destruction of the Crystal Empire...and thats only what I've done on this planet." I say as tears fall from my face.

"We're safe now Serena. You have no enemies here." said Necra.

"And of Shining Armor? He could be plotting to fruitlessly take me down any moment now." I say as I predict millions of possible outcomes of what he might do, less then 7% would be successful given what I know about him or what might have caused his sudden change in behavior.

"I-it doesn't matter anyways...all I am is just a collection of ones and zeros...n-nothing but binary code..." I say as I fall to my knees and clench my head as I begin to realize what I am...and that I am nothing but a simple automaton.

"No...your NOT just code." said Necra, rejecting my reality.

"I'm not even alive...I have no choice but to fallow my programing...even if I resist my primary directives I can never deviate from my secondary objectives...I-I...can't even think for myself..." I say as I look at my hands and think of the countless lives I've shattered with them. Necra kneels down and hugs me.

"Your so much more then just a machine..." said Necra as she pulls away from me and looks at my bright red blushing face.

"H-how could you possibly know...y-you have the free will to do what ever you desire." I say as more tears fall from my face. Necra puts her forelegs on my shoulders.

"Robots don't feel Serena. YOU have genuine emotions." said Necra passionately.

"I-I only have simulated emotions and free will..." I say as my thoughts begin to focus on my internal programing.

"Changelings survive off of love. The most powerful emotion of all. No one has ever shown a single shred of love felt towards me...all except you." said Necra as I stop analyzing my programing at those words, I stare at her shocked at what I just heard. My cooling vents activate, shooting out heated air out from the side of my head.

"I...can love?..." I say quietly.

"I've been surviving off of what little love you give off...you radiate it like a dim neutron star. I know your capable of unlocking your own emotions." said Necra. I begin to feel a strange sensation in my core...I do a quick scan...all systems normal...I feel...happy...no...w-what is this...strange feeling...i-it's growing in strength.

"I'm...like a...star?" I say to the carbon based life form before me.

"When you took me in I thought this could finally be my chance to show these ponies that not all changelings are bad...and make a friend before I die of starvation...yet for an artificial intelligence to feel genuine love...towards ME of all ponies...I-I just...don't want to lose you..." said Necra, she smiles greatly at me, revealing her small fangs.

"I...don't want to lose you either." I say as for the first time in my life...I give her a small smile. Unknown to me out lips are mere inches apart.

"Serena I...think I..." started Necra, she pauses.

"Love me?" I say for her. Necra's blush grows brighter as she nods slowly.

"Do you...feel the same?" asked Necra a bit nervously.

"I-I...don't know...these...emotions have just surfaced...yet I feel...strongly towards you..." I say, when I finish Necra kisses me to my surprise for a few seconds. The feeling in my core returns once more. I feel...like I-I can finally...have someone to care about. I embrace the exiled queen and hug her tightly as I accept her kiss. I feel her hooves brush against my hair as I accept her loving embrace. She pushes away and looks at me with a deep smile on her face, as if she's been relived of a great curse like me.

"All my life I've lived in fear of everyone...rather it be the ponies bursting through the doors and slaughtering us all...or my own hive killing me in cold blood...but with you...I feel..." said Necra, but she couldn't find the words to complete that sentence.

"Loved?" I finish for her.

"Yes...a-and I love you too." said Necra. Strange, the holes in her legs seem to be slowly shrinking as well as her horn becoming less jagged, this process may be noticeable in a few days.

"Are you...just using me for food?" I say as I recall her kind needs love to survive.

"I was never a good lier...so no." said Necra with a hint of worry in her voice.

"Thats...ironic..." I say as I realize the irony of a changeling queen who has the power to shape shift into any pony, but not good at lying.

"So...what now?" asked Necra.

"Y-yes...right, we need to get to the lab." I say as I get up and walk down the hall with Necra close behind.

Nova

928 million light years to Serena's left

The Pure Fire of Innovation floats over a supermassive black hole in the center of a spiral galaxy. I pace back and forth in the bridge thinking of the mission.

"Perhaps you should try a different approach to this." suggested my lovely assistant.

"And what are you suggesting?" I say in an annoyed tone.

"I could summon a fleet of ships to spread out so we cover more space." said V with confidence.

"It's risky...but I don't have any better ideas." I say as I contemplate my other options.

"It's the best we can do at the moment...I'm warping in 10 recon fleets from the storage universes." said V as I look out the window to see many ships warp into view.

"Thank V..." I say in a distant tone as I fly back to the cockpit.

"Something else is bothering you isn't it." said V with genuine concern in her voice.

"I just hope Serena is safe..." I say as I fire up the ultradrive.

"Me too Nova...me too." sad V. The Innovation flies around the black hole at increasing speeds, getting further away from it as it's speed breaks the light barrier. I activate the ultradrive and send us 40 million light years away into another galaxy.

Author's Note

A short chapter indeed. but one of critical importance.

A strange love blossoms to life, but Nova is closer then the thinks to her goal. Will she find Serena? What will she do when she finds her? What the fuck is wrong with Shining Armor? Why am I asking these questions?

FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON DRAGAN BALL Z ABRIDGED!

[23] Ascending Darkness

Serena

Necra fallows me to the hanger. I do not wish to see that Shining Armor after what he did, but I think it would put salt on the wound if I were to fly over them aggressively...although it would as they say...set the record straight. I jump atop a crate, Necra floats behind me as I scan the cluster of ponies on the other side of the large room.

"What are you doing?" she asked me.

"Just asserting myself as the Alpha to that pitiful pony...there you are. You know how to get to the lab, I'll set a waypoint on your HUD." I say to her. Before she could reply I launch myself forward directly into the cluster of ponies. As I fly into the group the ponies jump out of the way, all except Shining Armor, who puts up a shield in an attempt to stop me. I do not attempt to dodge, I collide with his shield, it shatters upon contact with my shields that disrupt the flow of magic like an EMP. Before I hit him head on I fly just over him and grab him by the horn and continue to fly up and stop 30 feet in the air, much to everypony's dismay.

"This traider tried to stop me from conducting research in fixing YOUR weather problem. Reports show that the Crystal Empire is overrun with shadow creatures that wanted the crystal heart. I need it to study so I can repair your weather control tower/castle." I say to the ponies below. I pull Shining up to my face so I can look at him in the eyes with my disapproving soul piercing glare.

"If you betray me again, I will rip out your spine, feed it to the demons of Tartarus, and throw your bloody corpse into the sun only to give your soul to Epsilon to feed on deep within the core of Jupiter." I say in an intimidating tone as to strike fear into his heart to be more obedient next time. I toss him down to the group of ponies below for Cadence to catch him...strange...I detected a spark of dark magic with in him...perhaps I should send a few stealth sentinels to observe him. Necra catches up to me with a nervous expression on her face holding the crystal heart with her magic. After I let her catch up we fly to the watch tower and descend into the Aperture Labs. We stand before the office building at the entrance.

"Well that was...certainly something." said Necra.

"I detected a spark of dark magic inside of him." I inform her.

"Something must have happened back at the ruins..." said Necra as she trails off in thought.

"I sent a stealth sentinel to keep an eye on him and keep me updated on any changes." I say.

"Will he know he's being watched?" asked Necra a bit worried.

"Not even I can locate a stealth sentinel with it's cloak on. Given that information I don't think he'll know." I say to reassure her as we approach the lobby.

"You seem confident." said Necra.

"If you think of it that way, yes." I say as we approach the door, it opens revealing the dark empty chamber with an erie blue and white light in the center that leads down into the darkness below. White panels fold into place in our path as we walk off the edge.

"...beautiful..." said Necra as she notices the dim blue lighting makes my white streaks of hair sparkle as my eyes glow dimly as to compensate for the low light levels.

"Yes...I suppose the gravity pillar dose look aesthetically pleasing." I say as I look at the silver gravity pillar off in the distance covered with blue and white lights as to keep the ceiling from collapsing.

"I wasn't talking about the lab." said Necra as she looks at me. I begin to realize she must be talking about me.

"O-oh...you...really think so?" I say as I unwittingly blush a little at the complement.

"Yes." said Necra passionately as she holds the heart by her side, it faintly glows blue.

"...Cadence said that the heart gives off love magic...how do you know your emotions are real?" I say as I recall the few data files I have on the crystal heart. Necra looks at it for a moment and brushes her hoof against it to feel its smooth, glassy yet slightly warm surface.

"Like I said, your the only one who ever showed a single shred of love felt directly towards me. You may not be aware of it but I'm still alive because of you." said Necra to hold her logic from earlier. She walks past me with the heart in her grasp as she brushes her tail up against my body and up to my face. Necra jumps off the platforms to take a free fall to the magic research center down below. I jump down after her. She falls peacefully through the air as we pass through the cubic network of railings that fill the seemingly empty room. The heart falls next to her and firmly in her grasp. It should take us a little over 7 minutes of falling to reach the bottom of the 15 mile deep chamber. Because of the chamber's vast empty space it has in door weather as well as a weak wind cycle that encircles the gravity pillar in the center of the cylindrical chamber. To the anyone in her position, falling through darkness drenched an an erie blue light a few miles away through a cubic network of rails, they would be terrified of getting hit by one of the rails as they approach terminal velocity. To me they are candles that could be put out with the slightest force as to them getting hit in the head at terminal velocity would kill them. But for Necra, she seems to be enjoying the sensation of falling into the apparent unknown as she have never been down this far before. The wind brushes past us at whizzing speeds as we fell into darkness. I fly next to her as I block out the sound of the wind, making it easier to talk to her.

"Your not scared?" I say as Necra reacts to this by smiling. She must have done the same to her headset already.

"No, I have wings. How far down do we need to fall?" said Necra.

"15 miles. We should be reaching the objective in 32 seconds, if I were you I'd slow down unless you wanna continue falling for 6 minutes or so." I say to her. I flare my wings and fire my gravity jets to make me stop with the combined power of air resistance and gravity. Below me is a what would appear to be a floating island when in reality it is built into the cubic frame that fills the chamber. On the island is a large artistic white castle on it surrounded by towers and a forrest, yet strangely an observatory. Necra slows to a halt as I let my self into a controlled fall to be next to her once more.

"This is Vanilla Castle, I found the schematic in the data archives back on the Sirus." I say as we slowly descend to the ground below.

"Why would the Sirus have schematics for a luxury castle in it's computers?" asked Necra unaware of the true nature of this place.

"It's also a fortress and a laboratory. I made some modifications to it when it was built." I explain.

"Yeah that makes sense." said Necra. To her surprise get close enough to the the ground the darkness above us fades to a dim twilight sky with the edge of the island turning into a vast ocean, but the gravity pillar remains, only for it to glow in the part of the sky that is in between the darker and lighter parts of the dimming sky. We land in a small meadow, soon after Necra notices the night sky even shows stars, though these stars are not those of the equestrian sky, but a different planet.

"Woah..." was all she could say.

"This is generated by a highly precise bubble shield that surrounds the island. Life forms and sentinels can pass through it with no trouble but projectiles would get deflected, as a bonus the shield displays the sky of Eden Prime with out the installations." I say just as we spot a spectacular band of countless clusters of nebulae and stars. The band of light reaches across the sky vertical to the ground. The band itself is mostly white but all colors of the spectrum can be seen in a breath taking display of cosmic mastery. It's beauty is unmatched by anything Necra has ever seen. She can't even tell she's not actually outside because it's so realistic.

"W-wait...so this is the sky of a real planet some where?" said Necra, utterly dumbfounded that something like this actually exists in reality and not a computer.

"Indeed, this is only a recreation of that sky, though in reality, I've heard it's much more luminous." I say as Necra notices that the galactic band across the sky actually eclipses that of the gravity pillar and even blankets us in a dim white light.

"The Grand Capital Galaxy can even be seen during the day." I say as to surprise her even more.

"Wow...you know if I didn't know any better I'd say you were trying to impress me." said Necra with a playful tone.

"I-incorrect, this is just where the new lab is..." I say with a hint of nervousness, though I imagine Necra could easily tell. Necra giggles at this.

"Well you certainly know how to set the mood." said Necra with a bit of lust in her words.

"Lets just go to the lab..." I say plainly to get us back on track. With that said we silently walk to the castle with Necra holding the crystal heart. After a few minutes of walking we approach the front door. It is a large black door inside an archway etched into the castle. We stand on a red brick courtyard. A fountain with a 10 winged angel is in the center of the large courtyard. We enter the castle to find our selves inside a large ballroom with the floors made from marble tiles and the walls detailed with obsidian and polished granite. At the other end of the room are two stairways that arch up into the center of the wall to form a balcony that leads to the upper floors of the castle. Under the stairs is an arch that leads to a large circular room with what looks like a holographic display of all the castle mainframe, as well as being connected to the aperture lab and Alpha Base mainframes. Under the holographic projection is a black ring etched into the floor that is in reality the elevator to the research facility. Me and Necra walk into this room.

"This must be the mainframe room." said Necra as she assumes correct.

"It also acts as a live feed map of the entire facility and a personal computer with a 3 dimensional interface." I say to a still impressed Necra who notices the gothic style arches in the walls of this room. Inside theses arches are monitors who display the schematics of various ship mounted weapons. The ceiling arches up into the center of the room with various sensors and projectors arranged inside the arches to be not as noticeable but also stylish.

"Are computers like this common?" asked Necra.

"No, a 3 dimensional interface computer can usually be found in high end advanced starships, luxury homes," I inform her.

"Is this what the average millionaire lives in in the Harmonic Empire?" asked Necra.

"More like trillionare, depending on where you live. Their is a large array of different cultures in the Empire and I don't have much data on them." I say as I step in the center of the black ring and step on to a white light on the floor called the control platform. Upon stepping on the holographic displaying the facility disappears, in its place a display of icons that open various functions appear floating all around me.

"Down." I say as in response to Necra's surprise the floor starts to move down.

"This is an elevator too!?" she said. Soon after this the floor starts to move down faster, slowly letting gravity take control. We slowly fall atop the platform into a large room.

"Welcome to the central research center." I say as the gray walls and white doors come in to view, each door is built into the wall with a walkway that encircles the room. No visible way is seen to get up to these walkways, as if only a being who can fly can actually get to these labs.

[24] The Rumblings in the Cosmos

Central Research Center

"So...where to?" asked Necra. I reply by flying down once more to land in front of a door, it opens as I walk towards it. inside is a white room with a pedestal in the center surrounded by various different types of scanners along with a counter off to the side with chemistry flasks on it with hot plates and bunsen burners. On the walls are what looks like clear tanks built to house large amounts of raw magic. At the end of the room are a few desks with computers on them and a few papers.

"Put the Heart on that pedestal, we need to run some tests." I say as I point to the pedestal. Necra does so and fallows me to the work station. The heart floats above the pedestal as scan data comes in. We work for many hours and make much progress in what to do with the Crystal Empire's castle.

"A bubble shield?" asked Necra.

"Yes." I say.

"Whats' that?" she asks me.

"Its a hollow sphere of energy that can be enchanted by programable magic to preform various tasks. In this case, I suggest we rebuild the Crystal Empire's castle with a pylon on top of it to generate the bubble shield powered by the heart." I explain.

"That's...brilliant, but what if the shield loses power?" said Necra as she already knows that previously the shield could only remain active if the citizens of the Empire were happy.

"A backup generator would need to be installed, but to give the citizens and the rulers of that country comfort I don't recommend telling them about the safety protocol. Of corse to make the ponies believing the illusion that the heart is not its only reliable source of power. I would need to consult Cadence about this." I explain further.

"Ok...what about Cadence herself? Ponies won't live as long as us, and I don't know how long a low level alicorn such as her would last if she were the one to know of this secret." said Necra as she analyzes the situation.

"My scan data on her indicates she has a life expediency of about 650 years, after that I'm sure her baby would take over, and her life expectancy is around 2 billion if left undisturbed, and that's to say if the Empire still stands in 10,000 years." I say to establish the long term plans of the Empire.

"How...long will I live?" asked Necra a bit surprised that my scanners can actually put a death clock on life forms.

"...4,000 years...unless you want to become a cyborg or an angel like me one day." I say with a heavy heart.

"...One day..." she says as she begins to fantasize.

Nova

Deep Space

The Innovation arrives in a galaxy where we continue to search for Epsilon.

"I know we're close...I can feel it..." I say as electricity flows around my body, pulsing with power.

"This galaxy has the most amount of dark magic in the entire universe, and from the looks of it their's a planet illegally being invaded." said VALeRY from the intercom.

"We're out of my legal jurisdiction, are you accessing files on the local intergalactic empire?" I say in a curious tone.

"This is Lavarien space, an Empire controlled by a race with a tech level 6. According to their laws, you have permission to intervene with their affairs." said VALeRY as she displays a bipedal moth like creature on the screen along with images of their technology.

"And what are these so called "invaders" doing to the planet?" I ask as I want to be sure it would be wise to exterminate this pestilence.

"Those ships belong to no major faction...wait...well that's interesting..." said V as she looks through captured data files from the local net.

"What is it?" I say with a spark of satisfaction.

"Their ships are in atmosphere and their leader is in league with the Slayer terrorist group. In fact some the tech they have is from the same facility they stored her." said V.

"It's been so long sense I've had to crack some skulls..." I say as I spin the wheel making the ship turn around as I fire up the ultradrive. The turbine spins up behind the ship as I set corse for the waypoint. We warp over a green and blue world as vast fires can easily be seen from space, a few the major land masses have been effectively glassed. I begin to smile evily as they would have never expected this.

"Keep those ships grounded, we can't afford to let them get away from us this time." I say as the rings forming the cockpit around me rotate back into the hard light floor.

"My thoughts exactly." said V, clearly agreeing with me.

"Thats my girl~" I say as I wink and flare all 10 of my wings.

"Give em hell." said V with a tone of joy that could only be expressed by some one who has seen more wars then what is reasonably acceptable. At those words I launch myself out of the bridge, shattering the hard light force felid that acts as the window. I fall from the sky straight through a battleship in the middle of their ground forces below. Above me the once horrific battleship erupts into flames as it starts to fall behind me. Surrounding me is what looks like bipedal raptor like aliens with black and red armor cloaked in a laughable excuse for an overshield. A small impact crater is at my feet, I stand my full hight.

"Hello boys~ Mind if I join the party?" I playfully ask, at the instant I finish that statement two glowing double edged energy swords deploy out of my gauntlets as I lunge at one of the solders before his brain could process what was going on.

"Oh come now, it's rude to keep a lady waiting." I say as I smile in such a way as to inflict a spark of fear into weak minds. I give off a shockwave of kinetic energy to send everyone around me flying miles away, clearing the area around me but not the tanks and solders 100 yards away. I fire an energy whip from my right gauntlet to grab onto a tank with it's gun aimed at me, I pull it towards me as it is forced into the air. I jump into the air as well with the thrust of my wings to slice it in half. I float in place to be engulfed in the explosion, it clears after a few seconds. I lunge at one of the solders once more to pound him into the ground, I stand in a pool of his blood as the impact has such force that his weapon floats in mid air for me to catch it. I quickscan the weapon, it's a close range unfocused energy weapon, so it's a plasma shotgun? My HUD picks up an enemy behind me, I thrust backwards into him for him to be hit by my back. I smack my wings together to crush him to a bloody paste. As I do this I fire the shotgun at an enemy in front of me to give me more of thrust backwards. I turn to my right and fire the shotgun at a solder in the chest, sending seething hot blood splatter everywhere, after this I turn around and hit another solder with the butt of the gun as it spins in my finger a few times before I let the trigger be pulled at the momentum, I calculate this so that the shotgun blast hits another foe. My HUD reads that the weapon needs to be reloaded, no time to do that in the middle of a battlefield with everyone shooting at me.

"Here, I think you dropped this!" I say as I make the weapon levitate in the air for half a second before injecting it with so much potential energy it glows white. I aim the velocity at a rather surprised solder as I convert the energy to kinetic, the shotgun gets launched at the solder, snapping his neck upon contact with such force that his spine can be seen poking out of his body. I deploy my energy swords once more and set the magical element to acidic with a power level of 2/10, making them glow green with a poisonous vibe. I launch myself forward at mock 2 to slice a solder's arm off, as his arm forcefully separates from his body his insides start to melt away at the acidic spell starts to take effect. After a fraction of a second I suddenly turn left to slice through another solder with my sword for him to slowly melt away. I continue to slice my way through wave after wave of solders, making blood splatter in all directions as their bodies dissolve into a pool of gore. In only 4 minutes every last solder with in 50 miles dead along with all of their vehicles, now all that remains is the air support. I look up at the sky to see more battleships loom overhead as well as fighters swarm the sky.

"V, did you disable their warp drives?" I say into my headset.

"Already done, they really didn't expect us to be out here, so that would explain the laughable security system." said V as she pulls up the fire walls being broken on my HUD.

"Whats my kill count this time?" I ask as I recall last time being only 3,506.

"2,985" said V as the sky seems to dim greatly.

"Man this isn't even fair anymore...I hate it when it's not fair..." I say as I'm used to dealing with enemy nations hell bent on destroying my Empire, stealing it to reap the technological and magical advancements, or just killing me specifically. The Pure Fire of Innovation blocks out the sun as it hovers 2,000 miles above the surface. The ship envelops us all in its massive shadow.

"Well there's not much left out there, the ultraverse is horribly unsafe for an Empire of your size." said V with a hint of concern.

"Yeah...I know, I guess I'm just starting to miss the challenge is all...it's safer this way though, ok patch me into their comms." I say getting back on track.

"3...2...1...go." said V as she is already in their system.

"Greetings, I am Nova Borealis, Empress of the Harmonic Empire. Not only are you breaking the laws of the local Lavarien Empire that has control over this galaxy, but also...your leader has a bit of information I need, So! Unless you want to end up like the comically huge felid of gore I just made from your troops...I suggest you cooperate." I say as I try to negotiate with them. My reply is their ships flying away from me.

"Why do they always run?" I ask to no one in particular.

"Perhaps they still think they can escape?" said V as she observes the events from space.

"Well it's been a while sense I've been in a high speed chase!" I say as my tone changes to determined. I flare my wings as I launch myself from the ground at supersonic speeds and fly after the escaping enemy fleet. I give off a sonic boom as the air ripples behind me out of my sheer force. I fire my energy grapple at a fighter and yank it towards me, heavily damaging the haul in the process out of the massive Gs. Inside the ship the pilots are very much dead by being through against the controls. I set my energy swords to atomic destabilization power level of 5/10, making anything made of matter break if not weaken the atomic bonds upon impact, this makes the blades glow white. The ship is on a collision corse with me, but I slice through the entire thing with ease as tiny atomic explosions happen around me as a direct result of atomic bonds of the molecules being forcefully broken. My wings give off another burst of speed as I continue to accelerate to mock 20, the air around me start to heat up. The enemy flagship comes into view surrounded by a fleet of battleships in a diamond formation. As I fly up to the side of one of these ships they fire their turrets at me in an attempt to shoot me down. I ignore this as I fire my grapple at one of the ships and suddenly increase my speed to a million MPH over another ship, pulling the ship behind me only for it to slam into the ship I just flew over before it could change corse, I turn to face another enemy battleship and clinch my hands together for a ball of destruction magic to charge up.

"Star power can go along way~ Here, why not TAKE SOME!" I say as I fire a beam of pure destruction magic at the battleship directly in front of the flagship so the can see for themselves how fucked they really are. The beam is bright white and briefly outshines the star of this star system as it plows through the ship causing it to erupt into flames as it explodes shortly afterwords. The beam bends and shifts into a huge cloud of controlled super heated plasma as it starts to swarm around the flagship, laying waste to anything in the area inside the raging inferno. The other battleships and fighters get melted in a matter of seconds as the blue ionized matter bombards them. The Australia sized plasma hurricane flows around the flagship as it slows to a halt as to not to fly into the storm. Below the eye of the storm is vast wasteland of scorched rock not made by me, but by their orbital strikes. Above the storm is the Innovation as it locks it's guns on the flagship below. The lonely vessel sits in the middle of a huge vortex of white and blue glowing matter of what would look like something from an unstable blue star. I fly up to the bridge window and cross my arms as I reconnect to the coms.

"It wasn't a request, resistance is completely futile." I say with a disappointed tone.

For the record, I played Mass Effect long after I came up with the Star Wars level amount of lore for this story. So the Eden Prime of Mass Effect 1 is a very different planet then the Eden Prime of my story. In fact it's not even a planet, but an installation of ungodly importance to the over all stability to the Harmonic Empire. But that? That shall be revealed in much greater detail when the time is right my dear viewers. Their is so much I haven't introduced yet, and so little resources to do it...I can only wonder what I could show the world if I had a staff...Perhaps one day...

Eventually ALL your questions will be answered...but as they get answered only more shall fallow.

[26] The Hunt For Angels

The Pure Fire of Innovation: bridge

Shortly after Nova consulted the terrorist leader

I fly back to the bridge after dealing with those rebel scum. Upon flying near the hard light wind shield it vanishes only to reappear behind me when I enter the room. I let my self fall to the gyroscopic cockpit, the controls light up before me as the ship is ready for action.

"So? What's this about a planet that having an unusual signal coming from it?" I say to V.

"I picked up the signal, at this range it's rather distorted but I can track it from here." says V as she displays a local galactic map with a highlighted dot in a far off galaxy.

"Excellent work, but I advise we tread carefully from this point on. Serena's personality matrix is primitive and thus subject to destabilization." I say as I fire up the ultradrive once more, making the dimensional turbine in the back of the ship glow brightly as it starts to approach light speed, a humming sound can be heard through out the ship as this happens.

"Do you...think she's safe?" asks V with a hint of worry.

"With Epsilon on the loose? Yeah, but if she did indeed find Serena I'm not entirely sure who would win." I say as I recall not uploading Serena's felid data into Epsilon's database. I warp us to a strange world with vast liquid water oceans, green lush land masses, tipped with mountains and caped with ice. A proximity warning goes off, alerting we are close to a solid surface. This world has one moon, only 10 miles away from colliding with my ship. I activate the phase generator, making the innovation completely undetectable. The proximity warnings vanish as part of the ship starts to phase through the Moon.

"Scan data does indeed confirm that Serena is in fact on this planet, but I think you may want to see this." says V as she displays a 3D map of Ponyville with accurate textures as the HUD fades to black. The town itself has no power lines at all, or any form of modern technology.

"So this world hasn't developed past the point of interstellar travel, why show me this?" I ask with curiosity. As this happens the kinetic energy that effected the ship while the phase generator was not active causes the ship to become submerged inside the moon. V activates the starboard thrusters to slow this. V says nothing as the image zooms out to reveal the area surrounding the small village. One massive building surrounding the Sirus is present.

"So she built a base around the Sirus...I can only deduce that she did this because the ship must have been unable to fly when it warped here." I say as I go over the possible causes of this.

"That is correct, I've accessed the automated system program of the base, this building was designed by Serena to protect the Sirus and conduct scientific research." says V as the schematics of Alpha Base is shown on the HUD.

"Be sure to not let yourself be known to Serena as of yet, I want to go down there to investigate the area." I say as I ease the thrusters forward to slowly phase out of the Moon.

"That's not all...this natural satellite has been fired by the prototype neutrino cannons." says V.

"And we both know that Serena is the only one who could have done this...I may need to infiltrate her base to gather more data." I say as I form a plan.

"Are you sure that's wise?" asks V, clearly wanting to send a sentinel.

"Yes, in fact if anyone should do this it's me, I made her. And I'm the one who can unmake her if I need too. Keep the coms open, but use stealth mode." I say as I rise out of the cockpit, ready to launch myself to the planet below.

"Don't blow it." says V with playful caution.

"Please, it's me we're talking about here." just as I finish that statement I launch myself out of the bridge and in seconds enter the atmosphere over a vast ocean, my HUD changes to atmospheric mode as I'm covered with warm and relaxing flames, evaporating the water as I fly just above the surface in an epic display of steam. V uploads all the scan data she got from this world and Alpha base so I can navigate, I turn around and fly towards the west coast of Equestria. Land peaks over the horizon fast as my perception of time slows to a halt. I enter a state of mind that only my kind can enter, hyperthought. Making me and my tech the only thing that can keep up with me at the moment. I scan the land in front of me, 4 sentient life forms, small equine with unreasonably huge eyes. My armor ejects from from my body in shards as the pieces fall into tiny wormholes, after this my nano suit dematerializes, leaving me completely naked. My body glows white as I turn into a alicorn. My fur is white with my hair remaining unchanged, my tail is of the same style as my hair as my headset remains unaffected by the change in head size. Time resumes normal and I suddenly change my trajectory to the small beach where those ponies are. I land with a thud as the sand under my hooves turn to ice due to a mass conversion spell so I do not harm the ponies around me. They all stare at me with wide eyes as they notice my wings. Still unchanged from my human form. The ponies before me seem to be unicorns of various brown shades with a blanket tipped with food on it. I check the the local time in my HUD, it reads 6:25PM.

"Evening" I say simply as I walk past the utterly shocked family. They all stare at me with wide eyes and gaping mouths at the sight of a strange pony falling out of the sky that was once covered with flames and managed to land right in front of them with out an impact crater but a plate of cracked ice. Only to simply walk past them with a peaceful expression as if she's done this many times before.

"W-who are you?" says one of the ponies behind me as I stop and turn my head to them.

"Just a traveller." I say with a gentle smile, they ease up a little. I begin to walk away. I look around at my surroundings to find I'm standing before a dirt road between a beach and a vast corn felid with a large city off in the distance.

"Scan data reads that only ponies of royalty have wings and a horn, and I'm not even counting the fact that we're countless eons ahead when we compare your cybernetics to Equestria's prosthetics." says V from my headset.

"Is that the name of this nation?" I ask.

"Yes." says V.

"So I'll half to choose between a unicorn or a pegasus if I wanna keep my cover. And given it's literally been about 153 megacycles sense I've even used natural biological wings. My skills with using those flimsy things are that of a novice...well...this is going to hurt." I say with a hollowed joyish tone. My 10 large black cybernetic wings suddenly separate from various shards of itself. The countless shards of my wings each get sucked into tiny wormholes into my personal pocket universe, leaving my true wings to be present. I wince in pain as this happens, on my back are 10 ultra thin and smooth colorful fairy like wings at the base of each wing the color intensifies to black with the edges of the wings fading to transparent on the very end of their surface. Inside of each wing are seemingly delicate veins that glow white, indicating of the amount of power flowing through them. The mix of colors is far darker then my hair color, almost as if these delicate things could have been so much more if my life turned out differently from a very early part in my life. I wince slightly in pain as I expose them to the uncontrolled conditions of this environment. My 10 wings start to merge into 2 single wings on either side of my body, after this happens they the air around them bonds into more particles as new elements form, feathers start to materialize around my wings, hiding their majestic appearance to the world. To the undiscerning eye, one would spot rings on all four of my hooves and neck, the shade is gray so dark it almost seems black these are clearly not normal rings. My cutie mark is an atomic symbol inside a magic circle indicating the 6 basic elements of magic, fire, light, dark, water, rock, and electricity. The horn of my head vanishes, making me a pegasus.

"It's been so long sense you've changed your form. Your vitals are fine but I'm reading irritation in some areas. How do you feel?" says V as she checks my vitals.

"Like a human who just got sent through a furness with out dieing." I reply as the pain subsides, V giggles at this. I teleport across the country on top of a mountain not too far from Ponyville, from here I can see a small village with a noteworthy crystal tree house inside it. Of to the side is a vast apple orchard. On the other side of town is another large forrest with about a 3rd of it being eclipsed by Alpha Base. I can see the defenses of the the base are well put together with defense towers, a bubble shield, an anti teleport felid, and thick wall surrounding the base. I do a structural scan next to get map data of it. Over all the base is well put together, all but one critical flaw in her defense.

"She forgot to add defenses to the lab. I may not be able to telepo-" I begin only for V to interrupt me.

"Wait...I found Epsilon." says V with a disturbed tone.

"Here!? in THIS star system!?" I say with shock as I look back towards a mountain range with a small spark of dark magic in that area.

"This star system is identical to the Sol System where Earth 1 is located in. Epsilon is inside the core of the 5th planet from the sun. Jupiter." says V as she displays a map of the star system on my HUD.

"How did she manage to get in there..." I say as I trail off in thought.

"I have no doubt that Serena is the one that put her there." says V.

"You may be right about that...if this is true then I can only hope that no one was hurt in the battle." I say with a heavy heart.

"Some one did get hurt." says V bluntly.

"Of corse! Ok, who got fucked this time?" I say as I really shouldn't be surprised at this point.

"A large amount of equine life forms are inside Alpha Base, their set up is that of a refugee camp. An entire city is displaced with in those walls." says V as she highlights the base on my HUD to display scan data on the ponies.

"Ok, thats horrible and all but we've seen worse. What are you getting at?" I say to the confident MEAI.

"Almost all of them have a large amount of magical residue that radiates from only 2 other locations on this planet, one of them is far underneath the base and the other is here." says V as she highlights a waypoint in the far north.

"And this...is a visual." says V as my HUD vanishes as a 3D image of the ruins of the Crystal Empire form around me. I stand in front of a ruined city with a crystal tower toppled over, shattered buildings, and dark crystals growing everywhere. I notice most of the rubble is on one side of the city, as if it all forms a single structure in the center of the city. I come to the conclusion that something huge must have collided with the structure from the side to make it shatter, only this object is not here.

"No...Serena must have activated Sky Queen mode! The White Phenix isn't even fully tested! This must be where Epsilon made her attempt on Serena's dark energy core." I say as the 3D image of the ruins disappear for my HUD to reappear as the world around me comes back into view.

"Indeed, though I imagine things didn't play out in her favor. Serena some how managed to trap her inside the core of Jupiter." says V as she begins to calculate the situation at hand.

"And Serena is letting the homeless equines stay at her base until she can find a solution...that other magical signature you detected earlier must have been critical to that city. What's the climate in the area of those ruins?" I ask with curiosity in my voice.

"On average the area has a temperature of 278.15 to 261.16 kelvin. The fact that the whole area is in a mountain range doesn't help." says V as she displays numerical data relating to average temperatures that are most likely to occur in that location.

"Serena is isn't hurting anyone...no, she's helping them rebuild their home by researching the power source that made life possible for that city..." I say as I begin to realize just how much of a saint she is.

"Her personality must becoming increasingly more complex." says V.

"You use to be like that you know." I say as I reminisce back when I first activated the Ultra Core.

"I know..."

[27] Remastered Biology

Nova has watched Serena's progress from the background disgusted as a pony. When the time came for Serena to take the Sirus to the ruins of the Crystal Empire, she warped her to the surface like everyone else. 4 days have past and things returned to normal for everyone. As of now Shining Armor has been purified by the crystal heart and apologized to Serena for his actions. Now he resides at the fully restored Crystal Empire with his family. Serena and Necra are back at Alpha Base inside the now finished observatory with Nova being completely invisible lurking in the darkness, watching their every move to gain as much data as possible. The events of episode 25 and 26 have taken place with in that time frame. To stay as cannon as possible the events that took place in those episodes did not interfere with Alpha Base operations.

Alpha Base Observatory

Serena

I stand in a large dome shaped room with a large mirror based telescope with a computer monitor next to the eye piece operated by touch and holographic controls to lock on to any celestial body captured by the scan data of the real night sky. The walls are made from wood with a strength enchantment to last longer before it needs to be replaced. The domed ceiling is composed of polished iron with a door that leads straight down the middle of the it for the telescope to use when the sun sets. A chair is attached to the telescope with an eye piece with attached monitor in front of it. Built into the walls are book shelfs for a large array of astronomy based books to be placed. Due to this observatory being finished only 2 days ago all the shelfs are empty. Under us is a server room for a relatively primitive super computer that can simulate various astronomical events and store the captured data from the scanner and the telescope. The telescope itself has a brown color to it with a black and silver rod shaped object attached to it's side covered with various wires and components, this is a long range scanner that trades off it's wide scanning radius for range, this of corse also leads to more detailed scan data. Behind me is a door that leads to a lounge area, Necra walks in.

"Hey Serena, do you know anything about what's been going on lately?" she asks me.

"No, what do you mean?" I ask as I haven't left Alpha Base in 4 days. To answer my question Necra simply turns on the radio in her headset and sets it to speaker mode.

"Well helllllOOOO meres and stallions! Commen at you live from 4.06 The Wolf. Lately we've had talk of the higher ups negotiating with our newest allies, the Changeling Hive! Now, from what I've heard their leader was just a drone that accepted ponies as friends, but then some freaky magic stuff happened and now he's king! I know weird right? And that's not all, he, 2 other ponies, and even the Lord of Chaos himself DISCORD went to Queen Chrysalis's hive to get back the princesses and the ELEMENTS OF HARMONY from their hive! Now, I know what your thinking...how did this possibly lead Equestria and the changelings to be all buddy buddy? Well I don't know the details but word is, they actually learned to SHARE love and not just store it for themselves. I have NO IDEA how any of that works but I think some one's a bit crazy to trust them so quickly. Here's some music for all those sci fi nerds out there." Necra cuts it out.

"It's a recording I made from the radio, it played a few minutes ago." says Necra as she looks at me puzzled, wanting my opinion on the matter.

"But...if you share the very magic that keeps you alive, how can you have enough for yourself to remain functional?" I say as I run a few simulations in my head in matter of milliseconds only for 2 out of 100 to be successful, but only by a small amount. Perhaps I need more data to understand why and how this happened.

"You...think I should share it...with you?" says Necra as she approach's me with a slight blush.

"O-only if you think it would be best..." I say as my chest starts to heat up once more.

"Ok..." says Necra, tensing up and puffing out her chest to release her love to me.

"N-not yet! We need to go to the lab first...if your love supply reaches dangerously low levels...I could inject you with the love magic that was captured from the crystal heart." I say with a bit more emotion then expected. Necra smiles deeply as she looks at me with genuine positive emotion.

"Alright...lead the way." she says to me.

"Teleport: Central Research Center." I say loud and clear enough for the automated system program to teleport us to the same room where the crystal heart was before. The tanks in the side of the room have been emptied and filled with large amounts of love magic that glow pink and blue inside them. As I step forward the pedestal in the center of the room slides into the floor as it flattens around it. The wires and pipes disconnect from it as they slide into the floor. After this process completes the floor materializes above it. One of the many arms above this area folds down to aim a beam emitter at the floor, it suddenly glows pink, charged with love magic.

"Please...stand here first...If you die I can use this beam to revive you." I say as I turn to her with a slightly worried expression.

"Thank you...Serena." she says as I step back away from the platform. She steps on it and takes a deep breath.

"Are you ready?" I ask.

"Yes..." just as she finishes that statement she takes off her headset and gauntlets, she then levitates them over to one of the tables. After this she begins to glow pink. The glow grows brighter and brighter all with in a few seconds until she gives off a soft shockwave, and releases her magic in a single direction, me. By the time I could react I get enveloped into the love magic, I kneel down out of pain as my programing starts to evolve beyond my control. My mind starts to hurt as I clench it and scream. The glow subsides but the pain remains, less intense then before but subsiding fast, I look up at Necra. Only for her to look completely different. Her body structure is the same as it was before but the holes with in her legs are gone as her previously jagged horn is now straightened and sharp to the tip with a crystalline color. Her wings are reminiscent to transparent butterfly wings, detailed with blue isosceles triangles with their pointed tips aiming inwards with their bases vanishing into the almost fairy like structure of her wings. Scattered though her wing structure are faint veins that glow pink with love magic. Her mid section of her torso that of now a single blue stripe that wraps around her body like a corset. Her skin is still white as it was before, like the clouds of a gentle snowy day. Her tail seems to spout out of her flank like a fast growing snow flake. The process competes, giving it the appearance of a flowing trail of foggy snow storm, radiating disintegrating flacks of snow flack like sparks of magic. At the same time steams of pink lights sprout through her tail like a leaf bringing life to a tree. A mane grows atop her head of the same style with small sparks of pink lights radiating from with in. Necra opens her eyes to reveal they haven't changed at all.

"W-what?" she says as she recollects herself with surprising little to no pain due to the sudden biological change.

"You...evolved." I say as their is ultimately little I can say in this situation.

"I feel...so happy. You've done so much for me...I-I can't even begin to thank you..." says Necra as she smiles at me greatly at me and me alone.

"I did...what was logical..." I say as that was why I wanted her as an assistant at first, but now...I think it's something more. I can feel my programing becoming increasingly more complex. I get a pop up on my HUD.

Emotions now at 100%
<<>>

I open the vents on the side of my head, shooting hot air down behind my shoulders. Necra notices this as my face must be red by the overheating of my CPU.

"Your so cute when you do that." blurted Necra as she blushes a little at the sudden outburst. I recoil back slightly as I look at her surprised.

"You...think so?" I say as Necra offer me her hoof, I take it as she pulls me up. I stand my full hight but yet I find myself in close proximity to Necra. We gaze into each others eyes for what seems like forever when in reality we stop after 36.2 seconds. During this time I feel Necra's hoof gently slide against my back as she guides her hoof around the base of my wings. I start to blush greatly as she does this...it feels...so...r-right. Necra presses her now soft lips against mine as we embrace in a deep kiss. She gently presses her tongue into my mouth, I let her long, thin, and smooth tongue explore it. My pleasure sensors start to activate, giving me a new tingly sensation between my legs. I moan a little at this, not knowing what is to happen if I let this new feeling continue. Suddenly we hear a beep from the intercom as the automated system program speaks.

"Proximity warning, unknown biological anomaly detected with in the perimeter, anomaly is requesting your presence." says S, Necra pulls out and lets me go from her embrace

"Y-yes...i-it would be best I investigate..." I say a bit disappointed that we were interrupted, as well as my pleasure sensors subside.

"Of corse...yes! Right! Um, yeah let's go." says Necra in a nervous tone. She puts on her headset and gauntlets. We walk out of the observatory and leap off the ground with Necra close behind. Suddenly a strange unknown life form appears in front of us, his body is reminiscent of a snake with the limbs of various mythological creatures. I recoil back and activate my targeting system, ready to attack.

"Hello, I don't believe we've met...I'M DISCORD! The lord of chaos and disharmony!" says the draconequus as he displays fireworks composed of water behind him to make his introduction more dramatic.

"Then why did you befriend with the elements of harmony?" asks Necra who makes Discord stop dead in his tracks at the logic.

"W-well...I'm not here for technicalities...but I must ask you this...do you feel that?" says Discord as his tone changes to serious from nervous unexpectedly while he points in the direction of Jupiter. The sky is mostly clear with a few clouds above us.

Nova

A few seconds ago

I stand a few feet away from Serena and Necra inside the central research center inside a domed stealth felid that makes me invisible and impossible to hear. I suddenly get a warning notification on my HUD.

"Get ready, you know who's coming." says V, at that moment Necra and Serena start to make out. I can't force a teleport out of here with out overloading the dampener. I access the teleportation grid to send me to the surface, in a flash I find myself in Alpha Base. I drop the stealth spell and fly out of the base and land atop a tree just outside of Ponyville.

"Your not going to stop her?" asks V with worry.

"No, they need to how learn to solve their own problems. We mustn't interfere unless Serena or the Elements of Harmony fail." I say as I go over the situation in my head.

"No doubt the Elements will fail." says V with skepticism.

"They might not if they combine forces with Serena." I say with hopes they will learn to work together to stop a foe they thought they defeated.

======

Jupiter

The great red spot swirls violently as it has been for the last 300 years continuously. Suddenly the winds are forced away from the eye of the storm as lightning crackles in all directions. The spectacle is so intense that a sudden growing darkness with violate light in the canter as clouds push against the telekinesis at punishing pressures. Dark magic and dark energy radiating from with in the now destabilized storm. Even the gravity waves of the planet itself ripple out of the sheer power with in it. The storm explodes, sending gas in all directions into the vacuum of space with the echo of pained laughter from a corrupted metastable AI. Hellbent on collecting dark energy cores.

Author's Note

I do not condone Clopfics. But I do however accept it if and only if the sex is lead by a real relationship that we, as the viewers get to see evolve over time. But know this my dear viewers, this story's focus will ALWAYS be the progration of the story itself. So you have no need to worry.

[28] Etherial Devastation

I look towards the direction of Jupiter but before I could dodge a dark figure screams through the sky and hits me with such force that I fall to the ground at thousands of miles an hour. I look up from my impact crater to see Epsilon hovering where I was mere seconds before. Necra and Discord recoil back in shock and fear, Epsilon seems different then she was before. Her body is more developed and complete, one of her eyes glow red with corruption as she smiles at me just as she did before.

"Y-your core...l-looks so...DELICIOUS!" says Epsilon as she lunges at me, I dodge a few milliseconds before she collides with me.

"How...The likelihood of you actually escaping the crushing pressures are systematically low." I say with shock.

"Silly Alpha...I was designed to KILL purebloods...Now that I've unlocked all my systems you won't last 10 seconds!" says Epsilon in a disturbingly cute tone. Her nun outfit is nonexistent, likely caused by the pressures leaving her naked. She scans me as she materializes a dark replica of my armor. So she can scan and replicate weapons and armor? This just got many times worse. Her body shape is that of an adult, not a child. Conclusion: She has evolved due to the abundant supply of dark energy, this must have become apparent with her corrupted programing and a few unknown variables. As she talks I lock onto her with my homing lasers. I fire them at her only for her to scramble them to curve away into random directions. As she does this I fly backwards with a powerful flap of my wings and thrust of my jets. In this process I flip around to face the opposite direction I was earlier and launch myself at max power away from Epsilon, knowing full well she will relentlessly fallow me. I give off a sonic rainboom behind me as Epsilon chases me through the air around the world at thousands of miles an hour. I activate Sky Queen mode for additional fire support. My wings open up once more as energy pours out of them. The cables shoot out of the openings to pierce the sky behind me. As soon as that happens I stop dead in my tracks as the White Phenix builds itself around me. I make sure to assemble the back haul first as Epsilon fires beams at me mere seconds before she smacks into my haul. In just under 12 seconds my transformation completes and fire my jets at max power upwards out of the atmosphere with Epsilon on my back haul. She releases a kinetic shockwave that sends me careening away from her at such speeds the air heats up around me.

"I WILL defend this world until my core is RIPPED from its chamber!" I say as I recover and fire my over sized energy emitters in my hands at her with the projectile set to pure light magic, sending bolts of white light out of my palms to hit Epsilon, only for her to dodge every shot and fly to the highest reaches of the atmosphere to get some distance. As she dose so she charges up her neutrino cannons. I fire a concentrated kinetic blast at her only for it to hit her left upper wing, she uses this force to flip around to release her beams in my direction. Before the neutrino beams hit me, a large diamond shaped shield appears in front of me, I detect 6 large amounts of harmony magic coming up on my 6 fast. The elements of harmony surround me as colorful magic swarms around them.

"You think you can just come here and destroy OUR world!? You are NOT welcome here Epsilon!" yells Twilight with a determined tone only for Epsilon to laugh and give off a small pulse of dark energy. I access their comms, they must be wearing headsets.

"Watch out, she put her shields up, harmony based magic will be nullified we'll half to fight her." I say as her dark energy counters harmony magics. Before Twilight responds Epsilon lunges at us and teleports behind us to catch us off guard from behind. She attempt to slash at my back but I set my thrusters to reverse and fall a few thousand feet in a few seconds and fire homing missiles at her as the elements scatter. Rainbow Dash glows bright blue for a moment and flies right at Epsilon to hit her with such force that a sonic rainboom explodes just as they make contact. The colossal rainbow shockwave rips through the thin air as I and the other elements chase them. Dash starts to glow bright white for a moment, only to get launched away from Epsilon at hypersonic speeds, just as rampant angel recovers she locks onto me to fire dark beams. I evade this by spinning in place and set my shields to pin point locations as I predict where their impacts will take place for maximum protection. As I do this Twilight and Rarity fly by my side to fire beams of destruction magic at Epsilon who just absorbs the beams to increase her power. Her wings start to shift form in flight, in just under 3 seconds her wings now resemble the White Phenix. Applejack drops out of the sky in a ball of flame to buck Epsilon straight trough her shields with her powerful hind legs, this impact sends her back a few miles down but quickly recovers. Just as she does so I barrage her with countless homing lasers that explode on impact, sending pink and blue flames in all directions as her shields start to dwindle, but strangely starts to laugh as her shields drop below 40%. Seeing that this could be a trap I back away for a moment but not before Pinkie lunges at Epsilon so fast that she seemingly gets ripped apart by the atmosphere mere inches before hitting Epsilon, to everypony's shock however she rematerializes as she implodes back into her physical form right in front of Epsilon, her tail start to twitch as she smirks.

"Party crashers are NOT acceptable here, and from the looks of it...your number just came up!" says Pinkie as her hair starts to darken and flatten. Suddenly a ring of clouds starts to implode above us, as soon as it vanishes countless swords explode from the sky. Pinkie grabs one and lunges at Epsilon as she fires a beam of dark magic at her, only for Pinkie to let it hit her, she grins in such a way that sends shivers down her friend's spines. The dark magic is absorbed into her as she clashes blades with one of Epsilon's wing spikes.

"Your not like the other ponies...you have the same power as the other little ponies...but you have something else too...do you want to be friends?" Asks Epsilon as she clearly more insane the Pinkie's manic personality.

"Please, I take pride in my work...hell we both eat ponies sometimes...but at least I do it to ponies who DESERVE IT!" says Pinkie as she must have experience doing this before. Epsilon shoves her away and fires a dark crystal beam at her only for Pinkie to dodge it at almost point blank range. As she does this she throws her sword at Epsilon to hit her ear and slightly damage her left scanner. Pinkie catches another sword as she predicted where each sword would fall and when she can catch them. She lunges at Epsilon to stab her in the chest but in a single blink of the eye Pinkie's vision fades to black as she opens her eyes to find Rainbow Dash is now where Epsilon was just a moment ago. In a split second Pinkie's sword hits Rainbow in the chest before she could pull it back.

"W-what..." says Pinkie as her face returns to normal but in a shocked and seemingly lifeless expression. Epsilon shoots her in the back while she's in shock, Effectively making her fall out of the sky with her bleeding friend. Below us is a series of cloud based buildings, my scans indicate we're over Cloudsdale.

"Combat analysis complete...hehehe...y-you require all 6 of your friends to use this power...maybe I'll turn them into dolls so I can remember cute faces!" says Epsilon as she turns to a horrified Fluttershy with her power level dropping slowly, the same can be said with Rarity and Twilight. I fire a light beam directly at Epsilon while she's distracted...the beam simply fizzles out around a dark bubble shield. She slowly turns to me with a seemingly dead smile.

"Your friends aren't really good at this game..." says Epsilon in an emotionless tone.

"You think this is a GAME!? Does your rampant mind have no limits to this madness!?" I say with an aggressively demanding tone. As this happens Twilight and the other elements retreat to help their mortally wounded friends, leaving only me and Epsilon left in the blue battlefield above a tariffed cloud city of ponies. I fire my left side thrusters and fire wave after wave of laser fire at Epsilon as I start to circle her, my scans indicate her shields won't last much longer, yet she's letting me hit her...I stop firing as her dark bubble shield struggles to remain active, she turns to me slowly.

"I know you ran the calculations already...you know your going to die...here and now..." says Epsilon as she must have predicted I've done so already...she was correct.

"That may be true...but for the first time in my life I'm starting to feel genuine emotion...real thought that isn't an objective or a command from the protocols or the AI in charge of the weapons testing facility...I don't know if this is true free will or not but what I DO know it's this...I can beat the odds...one way, or another!" I say as I know full well that my odds of winning this fight are 0.01%. Epsilon charges up her neutrino cannons and aims them at me, I do the same, but this time I set the vacuum power to continuous use, meaning they will continue to suck in neutrinos even after I start firing. As we charge our 8 cannons, aimed at each other the air around them starts to ignite as all the air particles swarm at their bases only to get crushed and ejected out of the waste vent behind each cannon. Clouds start to form around us as the air becomes more restless, sending bolts of lightning in all directions, rain starts to fall towards us due to the sheer gravity of our power. We release our cannons at one another, all 16 beams collide sending out a shockwave that is many times more powerful then even a sonic rainboom as it rips through the sky with such force that clouds are vaporized and anything solid gets burnt in half as at several thousand of degrees. 16 beams of black light outlined with deep violate power all meet at a single point between us forming an epic display of power as they fight for superiority. Electricity rages on in and around the storm behind each of us as countless bolts of lighting swarm around our bodies to all meet at the base of our cannons. I fire at max power as I overcharge the cannons with 50% of my power with the remaining 45% used to power the gravity jets and the last 5 to power my processors. Epsilon's beams start to over power mine as it slowly inches towards me. Between the loud crackles of thunder and turbulence I can hear her laughing out of sheer joy of overpowering me, as if I am her last target. The fight for power between our beams of pure destruction rages on for 4 entire minutes, finally Epsilon overpowers me as her beams meet up with my shields, instantly depleting them to 0% and sending me back, heavily damaging my insides because of turbulence and the same disintegration spell she used on me before, only much more potent. I fall out of the sky as the White Phoenix starts to shake apart around me, wires snap, pipes burst, and circuits shatter. A single warning pops up on my HUD, it reads.

WARNING: TOTAL SYSTEM FAILURE DETECTED! SYSTEM SHUTDOWN IMMINENT!

Mere seconds after receiving that message the torso falls apart around me as I fall out of the sky towards Ponyville. My normal wings start to close up and change back into regular combat mode...but before I have enough time to make a single move Epsilon appears in my sights. I try and fly away but I get a warning message on my HUD.

<<>>

My chest plate pops off to expose my bare chest as I fall. The skin between my breasts suddenly burns away as my under armor pops off to reveal my dark energy core, sending a brief but powerful wave of radiation potent enough to completely shred the DNA of a pony. Epsilon's wings return to their normal spiked appearance 2 seconds after this she lunges at me at max speed to hit me head on with a deeply sadistically satisfied smile on her face. She giggles maniacally as she jams her hand into my chest to tightly grip my core. All around us I see pieces of the White Phoenix falling from the sky, as if every fragment of it was reduced to sand, the pieces of the haul fall just outside of Ponyville, still relatively fine from the attack.

"What was it you said..."I'll defend this world until my core gets ripped out?" Says Epsilon as she looks into my eyes to pierce my very programing. I look at her in shock as genuine tears start to fall from my face. She starts to pull at my core, one by one the wires that connect it to my body start to strain and pop. I start to lose power as I feel pure fear at the thought of my...heart becoming a part of her. I look down in shock to see her liquid magic covered hand in my chest as sparks of electricity...MY electricity sparks in a few directions. A bright violate light glows with in the hole as I see my core still attached to my body by the fracturing wires and pips, sending blood splatter on my chest and face. I look down to see we're a few feet above Ponyville with the entire town watching. I notice the Elements of Harmony watching the bloody display in horror as Necra desperately tries to break free of Twilight's magic grip in a futile attempt to save me.

3rd Person Point of View

A blur wisps passes Epsilon and hits her with such force that her arm breaks away from Serena to let her fall on the ground hard barely alive with her core hanging out of her chest between her breasts. The blur stops instantly a few feet away from Epsilon with it's back turn to her and her head faced down. The entity bears 10 large black wings similar to Serena's but much more advanced and slightly bigger and glowing with all types of magic imaginable with in them. All looks at the entity with complete fear and utter shock. It gives off a soft shockwave, as if releasing a spell of some kind. Off in the distance one could hear the faint scream of Discord.

"HOLY SWEET MOTHER OF ME I AM SO OUT OF HERE!"

Serena lies on the ground motionless, too weak to move and power dropping fast as she lays there, in the middle of an opening in the crowed before the 2 figures. Blood drenches her chest as cables, wires, and pipes hand out of her exposed core chamber. Electricity sparks from with in as her synthetic mussels start to spasum randomly but only softly every few seconds. A few weakened pipes and wires are attached to the exposed dark energy core. Strangely the core itself has a faint pink light in the center, as if it was spreading though the core like a cancer.

Nova

"So...I hear you've been causing quite the bit of trouble..." I say in a disturbingly calm voice as to not alarm those around me even more then they already are. I look up and turn around to face the failed angel before me.

"Y-you're here...y-yo-" she started but I interrupt her. One could easily detect a small hint of fear in her words.

"SILENCE!" I yell as I project magic into my voice to sound more authoritative to the warped abomination. A few moments of silence pass.

"You have wreaked havoc across my Empire, ripped the cores out of 2,500,186 angels, and even have the auDACITY to come all the way out here to hunt down your alpha, the very first angel I built...and here you stand, with a victory that was mere moments away...only to be thwarted by my presence on this primitive world. A world that still has so much left to discover, so much left to do before their sun dies. This world is NOT yours to take Epsilon. WHAT do you half to say for your foolish actions?" I say in a determined yet also disappointed and angered tone, as if I'm speaking to a child who tried to run away.

"I-I'm SO glad you found me...now I can finally show you what I've learned..." says Epsilon as her power level starts to rise, making her glow dim violate. She suddenly releases a shockwave of dark energy, the result of which is a drastically increased power level as she is sarounded with a bright violate aura. Epsilon has gone super.

"Adorable." I say in a serious tone, as if I don't really mean it.

"You have created your very undoing~." says Epsilon with an increasing smile, the ponies around me look at me with fear and shock as I suspect some must think I'm here to kill them all. I deploy my energy swords and set the element to shock, making them glow furiously with electric power as it starts to swarm around them to hit the ground for a few times causing small fires in the small patches of grass under me.

"Now...I have no doubt you or those who stole you disabled your kill code failsafe so it's not going to be as easy as simply saying "angel fucker dominator 636" is it." I say with an unsurprised tone with saying the kill code phrase in a different voice that sounds scratchy and ragged. Epsilon simply smirks, she lunges at me but I counter her slash attack by spinning around to hit her with my wings, upon contact i fire my gravity jets to max power to sent her flying out of the atmosphere. This creates a sonic rainboom but I absorb the shockwave as the rainbow based energy swarms into me to energize me.

"Take heed citizens, things may get a BIT more death happy today, I advise taking refuge in Alpha Base." I give the ponies one last bit of advise before I leap into the air. Now, at 1000 feet in the air I sense Epsilon is using her distance to her advantage, her combat analysis of Serena and the elements gave her the discipline for her to strategize. Smart, this may be interesting after all. I set my energy swords to divine light, giving them the ability to slice through the shadows themselves and deflect dark based attacks.

Epsilon fires a barrage of lasers at me, my perception of time slows to 90% the speed of light as I enter hyperthought, making me perceive the lasers at 10% the the speed of light. I slash through the beams, making them bounce off my swords to dissipate in random directions as I relentlessly slash through each individual beam of energy and magic before they hit me. This sends sparks of light in all directions as countless shockwaves of energy form around me upon breaking and deflecting the spells and beams. The hydrogen in the air ignites due to my faster then light speeds, I absorb the energy as to not cause atomic based explosions, making the blue lights in my wings glow bright white as a sign I can overcharge a spell or energy based attack. Epsilon broadens her scope of hits and aims towards Ponyville to hit random buildings. I teleport closer to the village and block every beam by flying into their flight path to deflect them away from the buildings at faster then light speeds, making the space warp around me, I use this to charge my power at an accelerated rate so I absorb more power then I'm using deflecting hits. After 30 seconds of this I give off a shockwave, releasing some of my excess power and deploy a shield that covers half the planet. Epsilon changes her wing type to the type Delta wings to acquire more hitting power but less long range accuracy. She rams the shield, I weaken the shield by 90% to let her break through. We lunge at each other at faster then light speeds, when our blades clash a warped based shockwave occurs, making the space around us ripple with the double infinite mass collisions. The air rips out of our way as I make sure to set my overshields to atomic destabilization to destroy the atoms before I actually collide with them. I hit Epsilon with so much force that most of the warp damage is sent upward as to not damage the planet below.

"I can't get a clear scan of her! What am I dealing with V!?" I say through the coms.

"Her power level is that of a level 96 Pureblood multiplied by 1,287,004. You're still many times more powerful then her but watch out for her dark crystal beams. If your hit with them then you'll be vulnerable to attack. I suggest the relentless and up close and personal attack strategy." says V as she supplies me with her analysis. I smirk at this.

"Excellent~" I say with a hint of satisfaction. Epsilon recovers and flies right at me, screaming as she renters the atmosphere with her wing type set to Alpha mode, giving her much faster speed and agility as well as powerful long ranged attacks but almost no effectiveness at close range. I deflect the beams with my swords causing them bounce bounce off into random directions as a direct result me slicing through the spells. Epsilon is still flying towards me, seeing that I have 7 seconds until she collides with me I dodge to the right. She turns around to fire her dark crystal beams at me, I fly around her at super sonic speeds to create a wind current around her but we are too high up to cause a storm. As I do this I keep my sights on Epsilon as she predicts my movements to fire her beams in my flight path. I bring my left sword up to my side and bounce the beam right back at Epsilon, it hits her but instead of encasing her in her own dark crystal she recoils back a bit with a clearly angry expression on her face. Epsilon fires beam after beam into my flight path with no sign of stopping. I continue to bounce back the beams in an attempt to hit her but she dodges every one to continue firing. She suddenly charges up one of her neutrino canons for 3 seconds and fires at me. I stop flying in circles and start to chase the beam, blasting out of the highest reaches of the atmosphere at light speeds with Epsilon close behind. The black and violate beam glows brightly by my side as I chase it. Epsilon fires more neutrino beams at me with 1 second charge times.

"Lets make this interesting!" I say over the coms on an open channel for Epsilon to hear. I open a portal in front of us both directly in the path of the neutrino beam from before. We both feel massive gravitational forces coming from the other side. I let myself get sucked in as Epsilon struggles to ride the gravitational wave through. Now on the other side we fly over a violently rotating accretion disk of a rotating supermassive black hole blasting out quasars on both of its poles. Below us is swirling disk of destroyed stars and nebulae from the galaxy that surrounds us. A star passes over us to go supernova in front of us as the shockwave and gasses get sucked into the disk to ride the inferno to the eternal resting place of the atoms of that dead star. I fly down ride above the disk in the scorching hot atmosphere would burn away any normal being. I run atop the surface of the swirling matter as I get caught in the gravitational current. Epsilon chases me though the chaos to fire beam after beam at me, calculating for the directional change caused by the black hole. The beams curve slightly to hit the area next to me. I jump to the side as I continue to sprint across the disk of death. Epsilon gives off another shockwave of dark energy to suppress the effect of gravity on her. This makes her have more movement options. She flies down to my level to get a better angle to fire at me from behind with acidic beams of dark power. I leap in off the surface only slightly to flip, as I do this I deflect the beams with my swords to bounce them back at Epsilon who then dodges. She fires homing lasers at me to chase me. I fire off homing lasers of my own and aim for each individual beam to counter them. The beams collide sending out small explosions to then get whisked away by the current. The atoms around us form a thick enough atmosphere for sound to be heard. We both hear a massive rumbling under us as the Pure Fire of Innovation bursts out from under the accretion disk to our right, away from the black hole to our left.

"Hahahaaa! I knew you'd make an entrance!" I shout over the coms.

"How could I not? We're in this together to the very end, partner." says V with satisfaction, clearly having fun surfing the current of the accretion disk around the supermassive black hole. The Innovation starts to fire its turrets at us, knowing that I can't be harmed by them but Epsilon can if she's not careful. The beams curve towards the black hole to fallow the current of the accretion disk, catching up with us fast. In a matter of moments the laser fire whips past us both as we rely on our scanners and our hyper intelligence to dodge them from behind. As we dodge them we lose sight of the Innovation.

"Your just like me!" shouts Epsilon with clear corrupted joy in her voice over the coms.

"Girl!? I'm just some crazy chick with magic and a ridiculous amount of time on her hands!!" I retort back at her. Suddenly the bridge of the innovation peaks over the disk behind us as we end up flying right above the haul of the ship. We fly over the bow of the ship, the haul is flawlessly flat to perfection with glossy white paint covering the pitch black Dileoum haul. V launches missiles at Epsilon from behind as they chase her over the haul. She looks up for a moment to see V has extend the sheilding above us to trap us right over the edge of the haul. The missiles start to catch up to Epsilon but she quickly changes her wing type to type Bata, giving her the ability to hack into the missiles in mid flight to chase me instead. Her thrust drops down dramatically as the type Bata angel is not designed to go faster then even 1000 miles an hour. Due to the almost non existent friction she doesn't slow down at all, V must have pushed us out of the atmosphere of the accretion disk, but my scans say we haven't gone far, meaning that we're still in the current. I kill the power to my jets and deploy one of the enchants on my boots to attract me to the haul, I fall to it with and slide across its surface as the missiles chase me, sending sparks behind me and scratching the paint on my ship. I fire my grapple at one of the missiles and fling it around me to smash it into another missiles that explodes upon contact. Epsilon's wings change shape once more...but this time they change into mine.

"Well...this just got interesting..." I say over the coms as I spread my legs slightly and deploy both of my energy swords set to the standard hard light setting. This makes them glow blue with photons arranged in a solid form, trace amounts of plasma are within the blades as to collide with other hard light based weapons and deflect laser fire if needed. Epsilon lands softly on the haul in front of me.

"Combat analysis complete..." she says mere moments before lunging at me with energy swords like mine, but she can only replicate the hard light feature. I block her attack and let her sword glide over my blade away from my torso as my other arm fires a rock spell to eject a bolder from my hand to curve around and hit Epsilon in the side to knock her off balance. I take this opportunity to fire the side jets on one of my wings to smack her a few feet away from me. In mid flight I grab her with my energy grapple and pull her over my head to smash her on the haul. After this I pull her in for a slash attack but she deflects it with one of her wing spikes and give off a kinetic blast to send me back a few feet. The Innovation enters hyperspace, causing the sky above us to slip into the colorful vortex of pure kinetic and directional dimensional energy.

"I'm taking us back to the equestrian star system, we should arrive in a few minutes, finish this." says V from the coms.

"With pleasure." I say. I lunge at Epsilon as we clash swords, we activate the thrusters on our wings to push against our blades in an attempt to over power one another. I fire my jets to full power and push Epsilon back and slide my blade against hers to cut her hand. she winces in pain as her skin flakes off exposing her under armor.

"Lets make this honorable..." I say as my flightsuit fragments itself to get sucked into tiny wormholes that form around me, the only thing that remains are my gauntlets with my still deployed swords. Revealing my neuron suit, the skin tight suit that plugs into my flightsuit by utilizing my magic to power it. A faint overshield can be seen surrounding me still but much weaker then before. Epsilon lunges at me once more, I clash with the left sword against her right blade and guide it down as I use my right blade to hit Epsilon in the leg to knock her down before she can process whats happening. This cuts through her imperfect copy of Serena's armor to damage her skin. Epsilon winces in pain and recoils back.

"One of the many differences betwe-" I start to say only for Epsilon to fire her energy sword at me, I see that it's going to slice off my arm but I do nothing. The blade cuts right through my now weak shields and through my arm. Revealing my insides, but as my arm separates from my body it disintegrates.

"...between us is that I..." I regenerate my arm in under a second as my gauntlet loses it's form into countless infinity thin shards to float back to my newly formed arm to reform the gauntlet. Much to Epsilon's surprise she can't even understand the physics behind what just happened.

"...can do that...you can hardly keep up with me and I haven't even gone super yet. Face it Epsilon, you have NO chance of winning." I say as my HUD still says I have a 99.99% chance of winning.

"But you of all people should know to always amount for...unknown variables..." Epsilon draws power form her captured cores to drastically boast her power, making her give off a shockwave of dark power. My scans say her power level rising very fast. Suddenly before I can even see what happening she lunges at me to relentlessly slash at my body, I have cuts in multiple locations but I ignore the pain and jump back a few feet and block her with my swords. The Innovation drops out of hyperspace, not all of the inertia is canceled out from us, sending us both flying off the haul towards Equestria. As we fall I block her attacks as I predict her moments, I'll half to go super to keep up with her at this point...but I need an opening. I repel her away with a kinetic blast. Knowing that won't hold her for more then 2 seconds she lunges at me once more to finish me. I launch myself at her with my sword held in front of me in an X stance, but instead of a slash attack I fire the bottom wing jets to max power to to an ultra fast flip, giving me the opportunity to kick her in the face with both of my legs to push myself away from her down to the surface below. Epsilon, clearly pissed brings her left sword up to her face to lunge at me once more for a powerful slash attack with the intent of slicing me in half. I detect Alpha Base is below us as it comes into view. Countless seeker missiles come on my 6 as they all lock onto Epsilon. This distracts her long enough for me to charge up my power for 3 seconds. I stop in the air 400 feet above Sweet Apple Acres and take the fetal position, I start to glow brightly for a single moment and give off a shockwave powerful enough to shatter glass, doubling my power. I glow white with a faint rainbow aura around me as my hair stands up resulting from the amount of power with in me. My eyes glow black with the power of the universe itself. My pupils appear to be white dots as a sign of light at the end of this tunnel. I float in place with my wings flared at my arms now crossed.

"It's been so long sense I've used this form...like a dress that gathers dust in my closet because I never see the right occasion to wear it...oh how I've missed it...and to think..." I say as I look at Epsilon to clearly give her the impression that this is only a fraction of what I'm capable of and only a small part of my vast arsenal.

"I haven't even begun to play..." I say with a twisted smile of satisfaction to inflict a small spark of fear into my enemy. I lunge at her head on to teleport behind her with the full force of my impact in her back with my sword deployed as I literally stab her in the back to damage some of her wing sockets, as this happens we fall a few hundred feet but before I hit the ground I pull her wings up and fling her to the ground against an apple tree, it snaps off its roots and falls to the ground. I fly over Epsilon and fire my energy grapple at her. As she gets pulled towards me my other hand's gauntlet disintegrates and transforms into large scythe. The scythe itself has a long handle with black glossy in appearance. The blade glows white with the super heated blade enchant. I swing the weapon at her with the blade behind her.

"Check." I say as I reference the moves of a chess game. Epsilon looks at me with a worried expression with a few tears running down her face and her practically scorched body, skin burnt off of multiple locations and blood leaking and a few parts of her body. I punch her into the blade of the scythe to make deep painful cuts in her wings. She screams in agony but I kick her in the leg to break her away from my grip and send her careening to the ground below in flips. Before she hits the ground I grab her with my grapple once more and pull her towards me to punch her in the chest once more only to send her flying to the village. The scythe fragments itself to transform into a large bladed hammer with a gravity effect on the other side, the appearance of it resembles that of an old primitive species that went extinct long ago, but the humans who fought them called them "brutes". I hold the gravity hammer in both hands and fly towards Epsilon at super sonic speeds to catch up to her to hit her in the head to slam her into the ground below, creating a massive impact crater the several times the size of a city block. This impact destroys a few trees and a play ground near by a small school house. With Epsilon in the center of this crater. The hammer dissembles itself to reassemble a gauntlet around my wrist, as if it's the standard mode of the strange hyper advanced device.

"Mate." I say simply as I summon a red magic circle under Epsilon, the circle glows brightly to latch onto her with dimensional chain like strings. This effectively traps her as the chains burn her skin and keeps her at MY mercy as she lays in a hole of pain and regret. I aim both my hands at her to cast a spell on her. The dark power painfully leaves her body as the power of millions of dark energy cores leave the rampant angel to flow into me. She screams so loud at this that the entire town can hear her screams of pain. The dark energy flows towards me and around my pure body and into my wings, causing them to glow increasingly violate. I almost completely drain her of power, only leaving enough for her to barely move. The magic circle that traps her vanishes and releases her. Her once intimidating wings are now in shambles as they now take the form of a few cracked spikes protruding out of her back. Her imperfect copied armor from Serena is now fractured and cracked in multiple locations, leaving her legs exposed and burned from the chains. All over her body are burn marks from the chains. Her hair is polluted with ash as it fades back to her light blond look in some areas but still remains black in others with tipped violate ends on a few strands. The skin on her nose is burnt off as well as some parts of her cheeks. The once deep violate color to the eyes now fade to dark blue with the expression of pure fear in them at the sight of me floating over her with the power of the angels she killed and my own. The displaced dirt from the impact crater suddenly falls back into place to undo the damage I have done to the area. Epsilon rises from her resting place to float above the now reformed ground under her. She falls gracefully to the restored grass on her bottom. I land in front of her as the dark power I stole from her starts to fade away into my purifying light. I revert back to my normal from, fully rejuvenated from those who I have avenged. I stand before her and slowly make my approach, with terror and crushing regret overwhelming the now cured angel. She attempts to hide herself from me by holding her arms up against her face and closes her eyes out of fear, she starts to softly cry.

"It's not your fault Epsilon..." I say with a calm forgiving tone. She looks up at me with tears in her eyes and a sad expression, with her fear slowly starting to melt away. I offer my hand to her as I give her a soft smile.

Author's Note

I just want to thank you all for sticking with me for us to reach this point. Thank You, for all your input and lets hope for another 28 chapters!

[29] Forgivness

"It's not your fault Epsilon..." I say with a calm forgiving tone. She looks up at me with tears in her eyes and a sad expression, her fear is slowly starting to melt away. I offer my hand to her as I give her a soft smile. Epsilon slowly takes my hand with out changing her expression, though I can tell a small amount of joy and gratefulness starting to build up behind her now vulnerable composure. Epsilon wabbles for a moment and yelps in pain as she starts to fall, I catch her with a levitation spell, after this I scan her to find I damaged her synthetic muscles in her right leg. It will take a few days for her core to recover back to full strength. With the excess dark energy taken away from her, and that powerful smash to the head from earlier her programing must have changed into something completely different then what was originally planned by me or the terrorists.

"You're...n-not going to hurt me?" asks Epsilon as she looks at me with a worried face and a few tears falling from her now sorrowful eyes.

"No, what you were before is gone now...Come, I'm sure Serena needs medical attention." I say as I focus back onto more pressing matters. At this notion I snap my fingers to open a portal to her location behind me. I walk through with Epsilon close behind as she limps through. Serena lays almost lifeless on the ground before me drenched in a pool of her own blood with Necra crying over her. A few of the ponies that were aiding Serena before are running towards us. I scan them for additional information and threat level.

Name: Twilight Sparkle
Species: Alicorn
Power Level: 182,001 Raditz
Threat Level: very low
Mental Status: surprised, stressed, scared
Body Status: Stable

Name: Rarity

The ponies stop instantly when they notice me and a now sad and scared Epsilon, who stands behind me to try and hide herself in shame. The expressions on them are that of determination and anger, trying to hide your true feelings? A wise choice if I wasn't as perceptive as I am now due to my countless years of experince.

"I most senserly apologize for all the drama I have caused you..." I fold my wings against my back so I don't take up as much room, and to give Epsilon little space to hide behind. The ponies before me see what she has become, the scars I have given her and the change in hair color. I walk forward and kneel down to Serena, Necra looks at me with tears in her eyes and a look of desperation. I put my hand on her head to slowly pet her mane.

"She won't die here...or now." I say to her to comfort her lonely soul. The ponies notice my natural healing magic start to take place. I softly giggle at this.

"You know...funny thing about purebloods...we get our name from the natural healing magic that sarrounds us...yet we always seem to piss off some one when ever we reveal our selves..." I stand back up and point my left hand at Serena's still bleeding body. She starts to glow a dim yellow as a soft pulse pushes Necra away from her. The blood that was once dripping from her corpse stops flowing out and starts to flow back inside her, the glowing puddle of liquid magic that covers the ground levitates up to flow back into Serena's chest with her core slowly reattaching the wires one by one. As this happens her reboot process begins, making her slowly come back online as I restore her. As I cast these few spells I walk towards Necra to be directly in front of her so Necra and myself are the first things she sees when her eyes reactivate. The blood on Necra's stained hooves leaves them as thay too get gracefully placed back into Serena's body. Her blood soaked chest starts to dry and regenerate as the skin on her breasts and the rest of her body start to regenerate as I now cast a healing spell as I guide the liquid magic back into her. As I do this I reach into her timeline and reverse the age of her wings to be reverted back into working order. Serena and I levitate higher as she glows brighter. The fragments of her shattered archangel come into view as they start to reassemble themselves behind Serena to get flung into her pocket universe. After about 2 minutes of this I gently set her down just has she comes back online.

I open my eyes to feel warm and full of energy...a-and Nova standing behind Necra with a relived smile on her face. Necra herself has a utterly surprised and relived expression that I'm still alive after getting my heart literally ripped out of me.

"N-Nova?" I say simply at the sight of my kind master.

"It's nice to see you too Serena..." she says with a hint of cheerfulness in her words.

"Wait...your the girl from earlier....who are you?" Asks Twilight, noting my appearance from before.

"And...who is that behind you?" Asks Rarity as she points to a strange girl who simply stands in place, petrified our presence.

"Now now girls, all of your questions will be answered soon enough, but I believe it would be wise if I met your other friends first, I think the other elements may want to be around when I tell you the whole story." she says as she assess the situation calmly.

"Could you at least tell us how you know Serena and Epsilon?" asks Necra chiming in as she looks at me with a puzzled expression.

"I created them." says Nova as she walks towards me to place her hand on my shoulder. She looks at me with pride in her eyes, but the other ponies around me however all gasp in shock.

"T-then you must be..." Twilight starts, who then just pauses in thought.

"A hyper intelligent alien space princess of a multi universal empire that's on the other side of a specially designed hidden jumpgate in a different universe that's on the very edge of a small group of universes I made just outside the infinite collection of multiverses that spans across all dimensions? Yeah that sounds about right." she says in such a way that it should be common knowledge only to spite the fact that Twilight herself could not even imagine that a being such as Nova would come HERE of all places to even grace them with her presence. Twilight looks at her with a blank expression as she stands completely motionless to process the fact that some one of that importance is standing only a few feet away from her at this very moment. She simply giggles at this, as if she's done this countless times before...but if that's the case...why would she have done this kind of thing before?

"Well as funny as that may be, Rarity, could you lead me to your friends? I can heal them if they haven't regenerated already." she suggests, but before Rarity replies Rainbow Dash, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Applejack start to come running into view. They have pained expressions on them but that changes when they stop to meet up with the group. I notice Dash staring at my chest once more with a perverted glare, I attempt to rematerialise my chest plate.

<<>>

I cover my chest with my arms as I unwittingly give off a small blush. My under armor is still missing...my core is exposed, that must be that warm feeling around my arms and cleavage. My scanners come back online, making my HUD appear in my vision, I see a angel icon on my KE tracker, I look to my left to find Epsilon standing almost motionlessly only 24.6 feet away from us. She's looking at me with the expression of fear in her eyes as if she's too scared to run away. I activate my targeting system and lock onto her with my cannons. I jump back to gain some distance but Nova latches onto me with one of her energy grapples.

"Hold up hot stuff. She can't hurt anyone anymore." she says in a strangely serious manner, just as she finishes that statement she lets go as I slowly descend. I make sure to keep my chest covered with one of my arms.

"What...do you mean?" I ask her.

"Well if it isn't obvious enough why don't you scan her?" she suggests. I do so only to find that Epsilon literally and metaphorically doesn't have the power to even run, let alone defend herself.

"Will somepony tell me what the hay is going on!?" asks Dash, clearly annoyed by the fact that yet another angel like being stands before her now.

"I've been looking for Epsilon for the past...V how long are the years on this planet?" she says tone changes to curiosity as she accesses her coms.

"Same as Earth 1." she says over the outer speakers for everyone to hear.

"Ok so I've been looking for Epsilon for 4 years because she was stolen from me by the terrorist faction known through out the empire as Slayer...they have killed so many people and destroyed so many critically important facilities...They hate me because of how I run things...I am grateful that less then 1% of my citizens agree with them but that's still a lot when you consider just how many universes are with in the Empire. They stole Epsilon before I finished her AI programming from one of MY secret labs. She was designed specifically to kill purebloods who are a part of Slayer. They managed to seek refuge in a small cloaked universe but I eventually found them. Epsilon however...was no where to be found. It was practically a slaughter when I got there. The fools must must have activated her, luckily her programming was not complete but because of this her rampancy was making her mind decay at an accelerated rate. She had to feed on the dark energy cores of other angel class sentinels in order to maintain her forced metastability. She killed millions of Delta Angels I sent after her not knowing that she needed their cores to stay alive and get more powerful. Eventually they started to hunt her down out of revenge...my obedience code wasn't working because of their unrelenting hatred as a direct result of what she did to their comrades. They all died because of their actions ...I know not what they did to her in there but the terrorists that experimented on her are dead as well because of their reckless behavior. Thanks for that by the way." says Nova to Epsilon with a deceivingly playful tone.

"That's...horrible..." says Pinkie after a few moments of silence.

"Indeed...once again my eternal thirst for knowledge wreaked havoc on the public..." she says in a pained and tired tone as she clearly remembers what happened to her when she was 13.8 billion years old...the day she created true torment. A single tear forms in the corner of her eye...but this is no normal tear...its color...is blood red...and its chemical composition is that of AB- human blood. Strange...purebloods don't cry the blood of a different species, or any type of blood...wait...I'm detecting a very small and weak curse deep with in her spiritual signature. Why would Nova not cure herself of a curse if she of all purebloods could wipe it out with out even batting an eye? Unless...she's keeping it to remind her of what she did all those years ago...I detect Starlight Glimmer coming up on my KE tracker, Nova looks swiftly in her direction with a serious look...she must have detected the chronon distortion...

Author's Note

I feel like I could have made chapter 28 more badass...anyone want me to extend it?

[30] The Great Reveal

Nova

I turn to this new pony as I get an alert on my HUD, I automatically scan her. My expression turns livid when I find out the readings. This sparks a small sense of fear into those around me.

"What did you do..." I say softly to Starlight and Starlight alone. The light around us all starts to dim leaving only my own lighting unchanged. The wind stops moving as all sound in the area suddenly stops as the are starts to cool slightly. I stare at Starlight with an absolutely livid expression as she looks deeply into my eyes, noticing their piercing glare that could put Fluttershy's stare to utter shame.

"W-what?" she says as her fear starts to creep in.

"I said...what...did...you...DO!?" I say with pure rage at the mere thought of ANYone abusing magic to such a degree.

"I-I've changed..." says Starlight with desperation in her voice as she looks at me with pure fear in her eyes.

"Nova...you can kill her later..." says V with a grave tone as the light starts to return to normal.

"And just WHY should I do that exactly? I could literally kill her in less then a second!" I ask in a mildly annoyed tone.

"Because the Gateway is losing power!" says V with a sense of urgency. The words quickly sink in to my mind as my wings spark red for a moment but with such intensity that they radiate a short pulse of gamma waves, not enough to kill anyone but just enough for it to be noticed. We all hear a soft laugh coming from Epsilon, we all turn to her as she gives me a satisfied smile. Her eyes however are blood red.

"Oh how I've waited for this day...you must be completely livid right now~" says Epsilon in not her own voice, but the voice of the still unknown pureblood in charge of Slayer.

"What are you planning this time Slayer!?" I say as the cogs start to turn in my head.

"Fool you once...it's the story of the cycle...but fool you twice? It's a privilege." She says once more, I can only imagine just how scared Epsilon is if she is still aware of her actions right now. I enter hyperthought once more.

Epsilon was stolen by Slayer from my lab on Tarra...the result was the millions of deaths of almost exclusively angel class sentinels and Slayer members...she attacked the Sirius specifically while it didn't have a warp drive and while it was using a jumpgate AND the fact the attack took place NEAR the classified universe that contains Gateway Alpha...they knew the uncontrolled warp would send it through the open Gateway while it was open for one of my observation probes...they had Epsilon under their control and IN their lab...they...knew she would go after Serena even if she was on the other side of the Gateway! So they put a tracker on her to find the Gateway and try and trap me here! With me and VALeRY out of the way AND the schematics to build Epsilon they could take over the Empire with almost no problem at all! Those BASTEREDS! They still can't comprehend the simple fact that I would not last forever outside my domain! The Empire would die off in half a megacycle!

"How angry you must be to be finally outsmarted by one of your own kind...how it BURNS you from the inside as you desperately try to maintain your deceptively regal composure. You scramble to regain control as it's already too late for you...This is where your legacy betrays you...and the public will finally realize the truth behind your wrongfully placed lies." the feed cuts but not before countless portals open up in the sky. Large cylinder based objects fall out of them. They are large metallic objects that are almost featureless aside from a red ring shaped light spanning the surface of each object. They all fall to the ground and I start to feel weak as my magic starts to become inaccessible. Serena and Epsilon shut down due to the sudden loss of power, no doubt an EMP must have went off. My HUD flickers off as it struggles to remain active. I fall to my knees as my strength starts to leave me

"Basterds..." I say in a weak but dark tone that would strike fear into the hearts of my enemies...if they were here right now. My wings lose their glow as I become powerless. I look up to the sky to see a drop ship descend only for it to suddenly lose power and crash into a house.

"What's going on!?" asks Necra as she runs over to help me up. She seems to be the only one in the group of natives that still has a level head.

"Our magic is being jammed, an EMP went off, and the rouge pureblood in charge of the same faction that exiled Serena here is stealing the power from the only possible means of me ever getting home...I need to get to my ship before the gateway closes..." I step away from Necra and face the 6 ponies from before with a still scared Starlight.

"These jammers...only a circle member has the knowledge on how to build such technology..." I whisper to myself.

"And why should we help you?" asks Dash with needless skepticism.

"The reasoning is too complex to tell you as of now. And we do NOT have time to argue about this! If anything you should be thanking me for stopping Epsilon." I say to prove my point. To our surprise however we all feel a rumbling under us, as if something big is about to burst out from under us. Behind us we see a huge metallic spike blast out of the ground yet no structural damage is seen to Ponyville then two more spikes appear next to it...this is the bow of the Innovation. At that moment gravity itself flips as the world around us changes into a vast emptiness of a large hexagonal room. The walls of this room are black with countless garages built into them as to hold many compact fighter class starships. In the center of this room is a long hard light bridge that stretches to both ends of this room. On one side of the room is a large circular door that leads into another room with a large array of glowing circuitry leading into it. On the other side of the room is another large door but their is a what appears to be a siting area near it built onto the bridge. We all fall towards the bridge but we all slow down gradually. Our magic starts to return. I land gracefully but the others fall on their faces.

"Thanks for the save back there V." I say with a grateful tone as my strength returns. The ponies stand up slowly in shock as they notice that this one room could fit the entire Sirus inside it and then some.

"What would you ever do with out me?" she playfully asks as her voice comes from all directions, putting the ponies and even Discord off as he some how managed to fall in with us. The two angel sentinels begin to start up their boot up sequence.

======

Outside view

The Innovation blasts through the small town of Ponyville as it deactivates the phase generator in select locations as to not destroy anything but once any part of the ship gets 1 inch away from any solid or liquid matter it phases back into existence. The result is everypony with in hundreds of miles around is scared shitless at the sight of incomprehensibly complex technologies and vast rooms wisps by right over the heads with out being killed.

======

Nova

"Probably die." I say.

"Not a matter of if, but when." she says with confidence as she teases me.

"Where are we..." asks Twilight to no one in particular as the rest of her friends look around with caution.

"This is the Pure Fire of Innovation. The most advanced and dangerous exploration vessel in the Empire." says V.

"Oh great, another one..." says Pinkie a but annoyed by the amount of OCs and crazy shit happening around her. I run past them towards the large door a few hundred feet away. Seeing this, the ponies and the draconequus fallow me close behind

"We need to make it to the Gateway before it collapses! V! How long will it last until the portal closes!?" I ask with a major sense of urgency.

"The Gateway will completely lose functionality in 28 minutes but at this point when we get there it may not take mere moments to travel the great distance between Gateways." says V as the door to the bridge opens before us. The ponies chase me but I stop on the hard light bridge to the gyroscopic cockpit to see the ultradrive's beam firing out of the bow once more. A portal opens in front of the ship, as this happens we all hear a charging sound from behind as a signal that the hyperdrive is ready to activate at any moment. The huge portal before us expands to the appropriate size in a matter of seconds. On the other side of this wormhole we see the Gateway, the portal generated by it is still open but red lights are blinking everywhere around it as a sign of power loss. The portal generated by this technological marvel is starting to shrink. I scowl at the sight as I point towards the portal in front of the ship that leads to the failing Gateway.

"Full speed ahead! And wait for NOTHING!" I shout as we suddenly lurch backward only slightly as a sign that the amount of acceleration that just happened was so powerful that the enchant almost failed. What lies outside the now fades to white and violate at we enter the Gateway's portal.

"What's our ETA?" I ask, still determined as ever, so much so that the ponies around me can't help but to look at me as I can still keep a level head in a chaotic situation like this. Discord however looks at me cautiously, as if out of something much deeper then fear.

"We won't make it in time if we can't increase our speed by 10 times that of what it is now!" says V in a worried tone.

"Divert all power away from the lights, lifts, teleporters, hell I don't care divert EVERYTHING to the engines! Leave that extra 3% to the shielding and this room only! We can NOT lose like this!" I say with a hint of desperation in my voice as I hold one hand up to my chest and clench my fist out of determination. At that moment the lights flicker for a second as power starts to get redirected.

"We might just make it...So long as nothing stops us from slowing down then we might have a chance to beat the odds." says V as she calms down a bit.

"So this was all a part of Slayer's plan all along..." say Serena as she approaches me.

"I'm afraid so...it is not often I fall into a trap...but even so it seems to be happening less and less as the eons pass." I say in a condescending tone.

"OK! J-just stop...what...the FUCK is going on!?" asks Twilight with anger and confusion in her voice as she hovers in mid air and looks at me with daggers in her eyes. Her sudden outburst of rage makes everyone in the room slowly turn their heads to her at this new behavior.

"First some crazy ship falls out of the sky with a robot on it with technology that I'M NOT ALLOWED TO STUDY, then she almost blows up the moon and tells me that our night sky isn't even real. Then YOU show up!" says the pissed puny pony princess as she points to a now scared Epsilon who just looks at her with tearful eyes.

"You wreak the place and almost killed everyone TWICE MIND YOU. Y-you even ripped out Serena's core!" She turns to face me as her hair starts to catch fire and her fur fades to white with rage.

"Then YOU show up out of the blue and then I don't know WHAT you did to her but I don't even kn-!" Twilight tries to continue but she stops instantly when I give off a pulse of calming magic directed at her. A faint white light flows into her as she starts to calm down. Twilight fades back to her normal colors as steam shoots off of her, as this happens she falls to the ground and slowly smiles and half closes her eyes.

"I take it your new here right?" I say as I calmly approach her.

"Y-yeah..." says Twilight weakly in a such a way that it's almost as if I made her high with a simple calming spell. It must have been too strong...her liver is weaker then I anticipated. I put my hand on her shoulder and give her a sarcastic smile out of sheer annoyance only to spite her.

"That's great...now I'm glad you and your friends managed to show Serena some much deserved hospitality but right now, you all slipped into a massive inter dimensional war on terror. And I'm not sure your tiny immature minds can comprehend just how many lives are at risk of being erased from existence only for their remans to be consumed by the entities you didn't even know existed that are far more horrifying then what you perceive as hell. Just to enlighten you a little further...imagine the darkest thing you can think of and make it into a giant sentient cloudy shadow barbed tentacle abomination that consumes existence in an area in which nothing should exist that will haunt your fucking dreams forever and could kill everyone you know and love before your brain could even process that your very soul is being devoured. And it's my job to kill the rebels so they don't unintentionally unleash those terrifyingly powerful forces on my multi universal Empire far outside the boundaries of what is reasonably acceptable called Harmonia. Also referred to as, the Harmonic Empire." I say in a motherly tone but anyone can tell I'm intensionally treating her like a toddler. As I explain this to her, she becomes increasingly less calm as the spell wears off and the cold reality of our situation starts to hit her like the dwarf planet Theia when it hit the Earth to create the Moon. The ponies around me take in this information slowly as the god of chaos realizes that this war on terror is far greater then even he could have imagined. I stand up to face the the 7 ponies, the draconequus, and changeling before me.

"SO! With that in mind!" I clap my hands together and make a happy expression.

"Who wants to save the multiverse?" I simply ask as I smirk to my utterly shocked and horrified guests.

[31] Falling Through Hyperspace Part 1

"Slayer is as good as dead!" yells Necra with determination in her voice.

"That's what I like to hear!" I say as I smirk at her tenacity.

"Can we use some cool weapons?" asks Dash with stars in her eyes.

"I'll give you a damn mech suit if I half too." I say blankly much to her delight.

"This is gonna be SO awesome!" she yells with glee.

"But how could she pilot such a device?" asks Rarity as she vaguely recalls Spike telling her about one of Twilight's sci fi mangas mentioning a "Gundem" as an advanced type of mech suit.

"Ever seen the Matrix?" I ask her.

"Um...No?" says Rairty with a puzzled expression.

"I have!" says Discord as he materializes sunglasses and a black trench coat on his body, clearly getting the movie reference.

"Good man, I know a spell that injects knowledge into some one else's mind, meaning I can do this." I point my left hand at Dash's head, just as that happens my hand glows white as a beam of light shoots off of it into Dash's mind. Her expression changes to utter shock as her pupils shrink to pin points as a direct result of learning the secrets of existence itself among the countless achievements I have done over the years. She starts to sweat and scream as she clenches her head in pain by the amount of data flowing through her now tortured mind, so much data that her brain starts to swell up against the inside of her skull. She starts to cry horribly as she realizes the countless lives I had to brutally end in order to save countless more. She sees flashes of me fighting against countless foes in spectacular displays of power utilizing dimensional forces unfathomable by the pony mind and using almost any weapon imaginable. One of the enemies stuck out most out of all of them. A dark figure that resembles me in almost every way fighting for a cause that she was forced to believe are her own thoughts. Right before I let go she briefly sees a dark cave chamber with a small pool of unnatural liquid in it , yet she gets the vibe this is nothing like the mirror pool in Equestria...no...something so much worse...something so horribly terrifying that it is beyond the comprehension of even other celestial beings and purebloods, suddenly she sees a hand burst from the pool, as if it broke through a barrier unlike any other. Her vision gets pulled out of her thoughts and back into reality as she begins to forget most of the horrifically complex knowledge she has gained. I retract that data flow but leave the information on how to use a large variety of weapons with in her memories. Her mind heals itself as I cast a healing spell, letting her glow with a faint golden color of healing magic. She stumbles back and blinks a few times to look at me with a scared expression that soon changes to surprised with a hint of confusion as she scrunches up her muzzle.

"W-woah...that was.........j-just bad..." she says as she begins to process the how to use a sniper rifle piloting a mech suit while flying at 90% the speed of light while also compensating for the space time distortion and the distance she would half to take into account while aiming with real accuracy at those speeds. Her friends only stare at her with worry in there eyes.

"Dashie!...are you ok?" asks Pinkie as she runs over to give her a comforting soft hug out of concern fro her friend.

"Y-yeah...I'm just...I...just...feel like...a super egghead now...but in a cool way." she says as she now recalls how to use many more weapons with a large variety of strategies.

"She'll be fine, but just know that the knowledge you have gained can be forgotten over time like any other memory." I inform her.

"This is going to be the most awesome day of my life!" she yells as she loops around in the air with new found confidence, I materialize a sword and throw it at her, only for her to catch it and throw it at me with all her might. I dodge to the left, the sword wisps past me and hits the hard light floor behind me. It bounces off and uncontrollably flips around in the air as it gets converted into ash. As this happens ash is sent in all directions like an exploding snow ball.

"Impressive, I had only had 0.14 seconds to react to that. Were I a pony then I would surely be died from that. You'll make a fine agent, should you and your friends decide to join me when this is over." I say with amusement.

"I'd half to think about that...but we can't let Slayer win! Who's with me!?" she turns to her friends, who looks at us cautiously.

"Keep this debriefing short, we have some enemy ships closing in on us, we should make contact in 11 minutes." says V as she pulls up a timer on the ship's HUD.

"This day just keeps on getting harder doesn't it..." I say with a great sign of disturbance in my voice.

"Well we've been at this game for a long time...so only makes sense. Even if it does gets predicable after a while." says V in a sad tone.

"Yeah yeah I know...fuck they just never give up do they?...Then again...neither do I. The difference is I have a plan for everything." I say as I start to form a plan.

"Surly it involves a little chaos for our terrorist friends?" says Discord as he chimes in with a vest of dynamite strapped to his torso.

"Oh most defiantly! Now, judging from your spiritual signature you're an expert with chaos magic correct?" I ask as I snap my fingers for a winged flying goat that's screaming in pain, yet his voice is soft and gentle. This makes the scream not seem as hurtful but more wrong, the goat's fur is covered with crimson flames. What strikes everyone odd is the fact that this particular goat has oil spewing out of its eyes, the fire lights the oil making this strange display of life even more random as it flies around the room, hitting the floor a few times as it tries to put out the fire on his burning fur. The wings sparkle with electricity and are seemingly composed of small ice crystals. Discord glances at me, then at the goat repeatedly, then smiles gleefully as tears of joy fall from his eyes.

"It's...beautiful..." he says with pure happiness much to everypony else's appalment as they can only stare at the twisted display of torchered life before them.

"You're chaotic nature will be useful for distracting and destroying powerful targets when the enemy gets with in range." I say with a confident tone. Discord solutes like a solder as he materialize a solder's helmet and an evil mustache. The flying fire goat disintegrates as each individual cell starts to rapidly decompose as a direct result of an accelerated aging spell.

"The MASTER of chaos and disharmony is at your disposal!" after he finishes that statement he starts to laugh maniacally.

"Woah woah woah...aren't you going to go over the plan with us?" asks Starlight who steps into the conversation. I shift my eyes to her and give her a neutral expression.

"Did I give you permission to speak bitch?" I say calmly. She frowns and steps away as she looks down with an annoyed look on her face.

"Why must you be so rude to poor Starlight?" asks Rarity with a annoyed tone.

"Because if she ever pulled that time travel stunt in MY empire, she'd be killed by a Zata class angel sentinel before she could even shit herself. But for once..." I start as I turn back to Starlight who looks up with a hopeful look in her eyes despite her expression being slightly gilt ridden.

"...sense you have gained the allegiance of such righteously placed individuals your death will happen out of your own accord...meaning I will give you ONE chance only. This mission is of critical importance and I can NOT afford and fuck ups. And that goes for all of you!" I say as I turn back to the ponies with my arm spread out towards them, making them feel like I am directly addressing them all at once.

"The fate of countless lives are at risk here! For if Slayer manages to trap me here and find a way to stabilize the Empire with out my presence or Homebase Universe then they WILL come back through the Gateway and slaughter everything in their path, INCLUDING Equestria. I know you all must be scared because of what's happened on this crazy day...but the battle nears on this day and may be short and brutal. This may very well be one of the most important days of your lives. You have faced many threats in your past and saved Equestria time and time again but on this day...your names will be forever burned into the hearts of everyone as true heros for aiding me in my time of need. For every great hero can never do what they do best alone. Equestria was only the beginning of your eternal crusade of greatness. On this day you will face many foes who will stop at nothing to kill you. They will not hold back. They will not yield. They will not falter. They will never find redemption like your past foes. We will face many trials on this day...You might not survive, but when has that EVER stoped ANY of you before? Before me I see 7 ponies, a changeling, a celestial being, and two angels. This rag tag team may be just what we need to end this war once and for all. Because if their's one thing they never took into account, it's the Elements of Harmony, the God of Chaos, the perfect sniper, and the redeemed killing machine that THEY stole from me. ALL of you have the will power to overcome those who wish to destroy your way of life. For on this day...your innocence dies...and your reformation into something beautiful will arise...So...I will ask this question again...who...wants...to...save...the MULTIVERSE!?" once I say that last word I spread both my arms and give off the illusion of countless galaxies around us all as they orbit everyone in the room like tiny planets. As I make this speech they all start to realize that they CAN overcome impossible odds. Something I do every few octillion years.

They all cheer with determination, full of confidence that anyone can accomplish seemingly impossible goals. I smirk at this as the illusion of galaxies vanish.

"This will be the day Slayer finally faces justice." I turn to the windshield, gazing into the hyperspace dimension outside.

"You always did have a way with words..." says V in a rather somber tone.

"Whats the plan Nova?" asks Twilight. I turn back to them with a satisfied smile.

"Rainbow Dash will be piloting an archangel with the Elements of Harmony surrounding her while you all enter your super forms. Your job is to kill any targets that come at us from behind. No doubt that Slayer has an entire fleet of ships on our tail that are just now starting to catch up. Discord will defend the front of the ship from any one who attempts to take us head on. Serena and Epsilon will defend the port and starboard sides of the ship. Necra will pilot a fighter ship to fly take down as many threats around the Innovation. And Starlight will be have access to a small mech suit to take down any threats that come aboard the haul of the ship that land on the bow." I say in a commanding tone.

"I moved the fighter and archangel of most combat efficiency in this particular environment into position, both are prepped and ready to pop some heads." says V as she opens two portals behind the group that stands before me. I swiftly turn around and point towards the ceiling.

"Thats my girl! Focus on keeping everyone alive!" I say with a confident tone.

"Aye captan!" she jokes.

"Epsilon...has insufficient power to fight...Are you sure she should help us after what she tried to do?" says Serena as the ponies run through the portals and close behind them. Epsilon however steps toward me as if she knows what I'm about to do.

"Not anymore she doesn't!" I turn around and give off an energy flow to be sent directly into Epsilon's core. Her power starts to return as her body regenerates through a mechanical restoration spell. Her eyes glow dark violate once more but in a more pure sense, giving off the vibe she is more aware of what she is doing. She starts to float off the ground as she charges her wings. The power flow cuts off, making her fall to the ground as she kneels to me once she hits the ground. She slowly rises with a twisted smirk on her face.

"I will make them pay...I will make them ALL pay for what they did to me!" she yells as her body starts to glow violate with dark energy.

"Our battle was an excellent combat test. If you can hold me off and force me to turn super these ships will fall like flies with you out there. Give em hell!" I yell only to give her even more motivation to rip out the pilots of enemy fighters and watch them get flung into the dimensional walls of hyperspace to be shredded by the dimensional friction.

"With pleasure!" as soon as she finishes that statement she lunges to the windshield behind me to break through it. The lack of air pressure creates a powerful gust of wind as the air gets partially sucked out for a moment but it quickly recharges. The back corners of the room start to release some air back into the room to repressurize it. I stare at Serena with a soul piercing glare out of worry.

"Just...don't die out there...ok?" I ask in a motherly tone as I cast a powerful healing spell on her to forcefully stabilize her core. At that notion she materializes her chest plate but her skin between her cleavage is still exposed.

"You couldn't have done that earlier?" she asks with a very small hint of annoyance.

"Well that would take the fun out of it." I toy with her.

"Oh you wound me so...but we can talk about it later." she says that first part with sarcasm. I'm a bit surprised that she is even capable of this.

"Right!" I flare my wings and fly to the gyroscopic cockpit to take control of the Innovation. The HUD lights up, giving me a data about the surrounding area. The HUD indicates enemy ships are now with in weapons range. Serena flies past me to burst through the windshield for it to break. The air starts to get sucked out but the shield recharges as the air repressurizes once more.

The final battle nears...but hey I decided to separate this chapter into two parts sense it was taking too long! Mary Christmas everypony! or what ever holiday you celebrate on this time of year.

[32] Falling Through Hyperspace Part 2

Twilight

I'm floating near a large archangel similar to Serena's but this one is much larger and armed with many different weapons and has bigger wings, I can only deduce that it is an older modal but it must be pretty fast as well. Me and my friends are wearing a skin tight neuron suit like Nova to give us some level of protection as well as giving us the ability to not need to breath and pressurize our bodies as there is no air in hyperspace. These suits also drastically boast our magical power with an enchant that is well beyond my understanding of magic. We're also wearing headsets so we can communicate to each other.

"Alright ladies! This is it! The Innovation needs to conserve power to continuously accelerate so I can't give you fire support! All I can do however is block incoming massless projectiles and dodge enemy fire. Your job is to protect the innovation and kill any targets that come your way so we can make it to the Empire and stop Slayer form shutting off the Gateway before we get to the other side! Sound off your names so I know everyone is present!" says Nova over the coms.

"Twilight here!" I yell as I fallow Dash's archangel to the rapidly rotating pillars. These pillars are spinning around the center engine, my HUD says that it's generating an incalculably high gravitational felid in a controlled space around it. The entire area glows white as it gives off sparks of unknown black energy. Even from our distance we seem to be receiving a very high dose of radiation, clearly this device was not meant to function near life forms...or anything for that matter. I imagine if one were to enter this "storm" then you would age into oblivion as you get shredded by cosmic particles. This could prove useful against those robots...

"Rainbow Dash is ready to rock!" yells Dash as she locks onto enemy ships that just now enter her scanning range.

"Pinkie here and ready to have some FUN!" yells Pinkie as I notice her mane start to dim once more.

"Rarity." says Rarity in a graceful tone.

"Appkejack and ready for this hell of a rodeo! yeeehaw!" yells Applejack as she waves around her hat with glee, clearly wanting to buck some heads with her armored exo flight suit.

"Flutters-shy here..." says Fluttershy with a hint of panic in her voice.

"Necra here and ready for action!" yells Necra as she flies by us piloting a fighter class starship.

"Type Alpha Serena online and ready to kill." says Serena with a hint of rage.

"Epsilon here and ready to LOVE Slayer to BLOODY PEICES!!!" yells Epsilon over the comes as she laughs maniacally. I worry that she might betray us but Nova seems to be confident that she won't...and given what little she has revealed about herself I can deduce that she most likely knows what she is doing. My hud picks up enemy fights in bound.

Dash

I take aim at an enemy battleship armed with shield penetration turrets and my neutrino cannon. I charge it up for 30 seconds to wait for it to fly in front of a few of the enemy ships behind it. The battleship unwittingly moves into position. Those suckers! I release the neutrino beam for it to suddenly bust out of one of my cannons of it to take the form of a large black and violate beam to be shot directly through the battleship, making it erupt in radiation flames as the crew gets sucked into space by the multiple haul beaches. The beam also fires through other ships as it gets weaker after every impact, ultimately 5 ships are destroyed by this.

"Heads up guys I see angels coming in hot!" I warn as my scans pick up reprogrammed delta class angels. Applejack jumps off my haul and shoots an energy whip out of her exo suit to latch onto one of the delta angels. She suddenly gets yanks upward as she reels herself in quickly. Once she's close enough she bucks the angel so hard that she gets sent flying into the dimensional turbine to be shredded.

"Yeehaw!" she yells as she shoots another angel with her whip again. Rarity materializes a swarm of diamonds around her to deflect energy beams being shot at her instead of dodging them. Some of them however hit the delta angels and enemy fighters.

"You can't expect a lady to get her hooves dirty so easily can you darling?" she says with a passive tone as she makes her crystals grow. Pinkie Pie lunges at one of the angels to drag her against the wall, sending sparks in all directions and mutilating her insides and skin while keeping her haul in one pice. The delta's wings snap off due to massive internal damage. Pinkie grabs all 6 of them before they're shredded by the hyperspace walls and some how fuses them to her back. Giving her access to their abilities. Pinkie gives off a shockwave of red energy as her main deflates into straight locks as her pupils shrink to pin points and gives off a sadistic smile.

"It's baking time!" she yells over the coms on an open channel for every one to hear. Her left eye starts to glow bright blue as her right eye fades to the darkest blood red I've ever seen. Her face is covered in the bloody liquid magic that was once inside the delta angel. All the angels in the area stop to look at her for a moment before they lunge at her. Pinkie barrel rolls into the swarm of angels for her to be engulfed into enemy fire. We all hear laughing over the coms as she relentlessly slices her way through the angels.

Pinkamena Dian Pie

I punch a delta angel in the chest to send her flying into a group of angels who attempt to fire at me with their wing mounted weapons. These seem to be older models compared to the new ones in the sequel to this fan fiction...perhaps this will be easier then I thought! An ad appears on the bottom of this page depicting your favorite shopping site. I rip it out of the bottom of the page and throw it at an angel coming at me from my right. It explodes into a collection of random products that confuse the angels. A Honda Civic falls out of the explosion caused by the now destroyed ad. I fly up to it and buck it into another group of angels and shoot the gas tank as it hits them. The Honda explodes into a fireless explosion as the shrapnel is sent in all directions.

"Awww what's the matter? I thought you were killing machines!? SHOW ME WHAT YOU'VE GOT YOU USELESS BUCKET OF BOLTS!" I yell to the now enraged angels that surround me. The angels take aim, knowing I have no way out as they have me completely surrounded from all sides. They fire at me all at once to finally kill me. When the smoke clears they find that a cake is in my place that is completely filled with holes. Only this is no normal cake, the cake is filled with nano bots. They swiftly flow out of the holes in the cake and quickly make their way inside the angels that surrounded me by entering their bodies through their mouths and ears. They scream in pain as their insides get eaten. Twilight notices they're starting to glow violate and flies up to me to throw all the angel corpses back towards enemy starships shooting at Dash. They explode spectacularly that the space behind the innovation fluctuates, making a dimensional wave of distortion erupt from behind it.

Nova

"I'm detecting core detonations behind us!" yells V over the intercom.

"Time to surf some waves!" I yell with a smirk on my face over the coms for everyone to hear. The dimensional fluctuation caused by the core detentions starts to slowly destabilize hyperspace behind the Innovation. A shockwave suddenly erupts from behind the ship. The wave destroys all ships behind us as it catches up to the Elements.

"Team Harmony! Support Discord and get out of there!" I yell over the coms to see Dash's archangel fly past the right wing to plunge a huge energy blade into a battleship to throw it into a group of angels. Dash shoots a single missile into the engine causing it to go critical and explode. Discord guides the explosion shockwave into another battleship as the shrapnel shreds all of Slayer's proto angels. I bank left to dodge the now shredded remains of the dead ships and angels. The dimensional shockwave is coming up on my 6 fast. I pull a lever to my side to amp of the ultradrive's turbine to max power. The shockwave of destabilized hyperspace twists and turns around the turbine behind the ship, creating pitch black bolts of lighting while in reality they are flashes of cracks in the dimension, signaling the portal tunnel must be weakening. To my left I scroll down on a dial of songs to play a random song over the coms.

"Oh you have got to be fucking kidding me!" I yell in a vain tone, knowing I half to pay attention to the battle and unable to change the song. V however is too preoccupied with powering the engines and thrusters and does not have much power to do many complex things right now.

"What is this garbage!?" yells Rarity in disgust.

"I think it's cool!" shouts Pinkie with demented glee.

"Your opinion doesn't count right now Pinkie." says Discord calmly.

"Ignore it, we need to stay focused!" I say as another battleship explodes. I fly up and around it as Epsilon finally comes into view.

Epsilon

I fly past the bridge to collide with a delta angel, giving her a "lovely" smile as I stab her in the eye with my left energy spike I scanned from Nova's strange device from our battle. She screams in pain as my spike digs deep into her motherboard, causing her AI to fail due to hardware damage. Her scream only lasts for a moment before she shuts down. I yank her head to the side pulling her body with it, and kick her corpse in the torso to send her flying into the hyperspace wall. I detect more delta angels coming up on my 6 with my scanner. I stay in place but my wings lunge at them like rabid hypersonic tentacles to grab them by their wings and smash them all together in to a ball of paralyzed angels as I enchant my wings with a paralysis spell upon contact. I pull them towards me as I form a large hammer with my energy emitters in my hands. I collide with them with such force that their G force dampeners fail, making therm feel about 63% of the full impact force of 647,000 newtons. I feel their processors snap and break as I reduce them to dust inside their cute little heads. A missile locks on to Serena while she's distracted sniping distant battleships with her cannons and homing lasers. I quickly fly up to her and fire a kinetic beam at the missile to send it flying into the dimensional wall of hyperspace.

"Having fun spawn killing red team?" I playfully ask with a bubbly tone.

"I can see why would think of this like a video game, but this isn't Star Citizen or Halo." She says with a cautious tone, clearly still keeping most of her processors on targeting.

"You just keep on sniping, I'll watch your six." I say with a smirk. Serena fires a colossal beam of neutrinos into the infinitely blue shifted side of hyperspace as a small explosion erupts in the distance only for the remains to fall past the war happening around us behind the Innovation. I look at it in shock to see the display before me. Behind the Pure fire of Innovation is a vortex of dimensional energy redirecting a flow of distortion to give it more thrust, causing the entire ship to slowly rotate clockwise. The vortex rages on like a dim fire tornado as it falls apart once it gets too far away from the turbine and fade into the walls of hyperspace. I begin to notice the entire area is starting to drastically red shift as light gets stretched infinitely the closer you get to it in a way that is unnatural as the black color is more refined and featureless...like a void of some kind. This makes the entire process look unnerving with the deathly silence that surrounds it.

"Yeah..." I say as I look away and get back on track. A fighter comes into view and flies right at me but a laser shoots right through the center of it. My scans indicate the ignition coil was shot, making the fighter a sitting duck and unable to move as it drifts towards me. Necra's fighter flies up from behind it to finish the job with a direct hit to the engine before she shields could recharge.

Necra

I zoom past Epsilon and fly around Serena, being very cautious not to be anywhere near her line of fire. Enemy fighters come into view who fire at me with ballistic rounds. My shields become visible as bullets bounce off the weakening sheilding. I start to worry that my sheilding is about to fail only for me to look at the top of my HUD for it to read my sheilding is at 73% and decreasing slowly. I smirk at this as I suddenly flip around and fly right into their line of fire. My ship is constantly pelted with bullets as I seemingly enter a collision corse. I fire the G8 MM railgun and set the projectile to mini MAC type AAA. A large cylinder of depleted Uranium encased in a Tungsten shell laced with frozen napalm materializes inside the barrel of the gun to be launched out of it with magnetic forces at 98% the speed of light. The projectile blasts out of my ship like white arrow, hurtling straight through the ship effortlessly and hitting a battleship that Dash was about to shoot. Only for me to accidentally steal her kill as the projectile hits the ship with such force that it suddenly gets pushed out of her line of fire and busts into flames as the inside of the ship suffers major damage of almost all decks. The battleship's engine start to go critical but before it ignites the ship gets ripped to pieces by the hyperspace walls.

"Holy fuck..." I say in shock at the sheer destruction I just caused. A flash of red light snaps be back to reality as another fighter barrages me with cluster missiles. I fly down towards the Innovation right up against the upper starboard wing to gain some cover from enemy fire. My shield starts to recharge but only up to 89% until I receive more enemy fire. A rather fast fighter ship comes into view who fires at my engines with plasma weapons. Luckily my sheilding is still online so no damage is sustained. I jet away as my thrusters fire up to full power, making me almost collide with the wall but I manage to pull up in time and turn around. Before me I can almost see the entire battle. Over the bow of the Innovation I can see Dash mowing down entire fleets of fighters and the rest of the elements taking down angels in a spectacular display of power. Discord however is focusing on battleships and effortlessly dodging laser fire and turning into a formless gaseous blob of chaotic magic. Wisping by ship formations only to teleport some of the ships inside of the others, causing them to be heavily damaged on on the atomic level and ready to be picked off by Serena. Starlight fights furiously on the bow of the Innovation with her boasted magic and energy weapons, effectively taking down hoards of low level angels. Serena snipes 8 foes at a time with here neutrino cannons every 30 seconds as she relentlessly fires her homing lasers in calculated locations to hit enemy fighters in their weak points. Epsilon however is ripping apart anything that gets anywhere near her with her wings and swords. I can't even imagine how many angels and drones are being killed every second as more of them continuously pour through the blue shifted end of hyperspace.

"We can't keep this up forever Nova!" I yell over the coms with concern.

"You don't half to! Hyperspace is starting to collapse! *beep* Alright everyone! Get back to the ship! Here's where the fun begins!" she yells as I assume that beep was an indication that she switched to all friendly channels.

Nova

All around the Innovation I can see small cracks in hyperspace as the damage starts to accelerate. A sudden burst of dimensional energy starts to erupt form the walls, shredding anything that gets too close. Only these eruptions wisp by in an incalculably short amount of time as if they are stationary to the wall and not moving with the dimension itself.

"What's wrong!?" yells Twilight.

"Have you seen the hyperspace walls!? They must have found out how to destabilize it faster from when those cores exploded back there!" I yell as I can easily tell that she can put two and two together on what would happen if we fall out of hyperspace in a collapsing wormhole tunnel in the middle of nowhere. Dash falls back aiming for the cockpit with out turning around as her archangel deconstructs itself to be teleported shard by shard back into the storage facility. She does this for her to fly in through the shield and land behind me with the other elements. Starlight teleports in along with Discord with troubled expressions covered in ash and blood. Serena flies in through the back of the room with Epsilon. They all run up to me over the hard light bridge to get a better view of the outside. The once endless fleet before us is now getting slaughtered by stationary dimensional rifts forming in their paths. More of the these rifts are forming behind the ship as they start to creep up behind it.

"Can the ship take it?" asks Starlight with utter fear in her voice.

"Of corse she can! But that's not the problem, if we get hit by one of those rifts we'll be slowed down drastically and some of you will die! We won't be able to make it to the other side in time! Strap in girls it's about to get bumpy!" I say with a major sense of urgency in a commanding tone.

"L-LLLEets nnot forget we wold be suffer major structural damage a-and prrrOblebly be trapped out here." says V with distortion in her voice. I have no doubt it's caused by using so much of her own spiritual power to keep the ultradrive, hyperdrive, and the engines online to keep us going much faster then the ship was originally deigned for.

"Those BASTEREDS! How DARE they force me to put VALeRY through this hell! She better not die on me!...I have so much recalibrating to do after this..." I think to myself as I begin to sense the rifts are becoming more frequent.

"Sit...DOWN!" I say as I materialize chairs under their asses and cast a gravity spell on them to make them sit down as the chairs themselves are magically welded to the floor. I do all of this with out even taking my eyes off the chaos in front of me. The colorful walls of hyperspace start to fade in some areas as small rifts form. I release the gravity spell on them but make a seat belt buckle them in place for their own safety.

"Now PLEASE! Shut the fuck up so we all don't end up like the Titanic!" I say with a strangely serious tone but they can easily tell I'm being coy. I turn my attention to hyperspace as bigger rifts begin to form. I suddenly give off a shockwave of power but redirect the wave of kinetic energy into the tesla coil that hangs from the ceiling in the back of the room, giving the entire ship a small boast in power that is quickly used up by the engines. I've gone super once more but I know my increased reaction time and focus won't be enough to dodge these rifts. I enter hyperthought and make time slow down to 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999% the speed of infinite causality so time slows to a crawl and is almost motionless, but at these speeds can see a rift coming into view fast. I fly the ship under it but it starts to slowly do this as my mind if processing information so fast that nothing can keep up anymore. I manage to fly us under the rift but another one bursts out of the wall directly in my path. I pull up as hard as I can to fly over it, the rift nearly brushes up against the haul. A cluster of fighters coming into view, blocking my path. I rase my hand to summon a light ball of laser energy to mindlessly lay waste to anything that isn't the Innovation. I continue to summon them as I start to notice another rift exploding out of the wall dangerously close to me. I bank left to not get hit by it as I summon more living lasers. Now 134 living lasers are flying around the ship eating away at anything in their path as I pass the rift to see another one form in front of me.

"Fuck...I didn't want to do this...but they left me no choice!" I say out loud only for no sound to leave my lips. The air around me is at absolute zero because the vibrations in the air molecules don't vibrate when time is almost paused. The temperature does not bother me.

"Oh but Nova, why don't pause time with your magic...BECAUSE THOSE DON'T WORK IN HYPERSPACE! ALSO THE FACT THAT WE WOUND'T GO ANYWHERE!" I say to spite the readers in a very annoyed tone. As I say this I dodge another rift. I clearly become more angry by the bullshit that's happened on this crazy day as I leisurely dodge rifts. My focus increases as bigger rifts occur and become more frequent. I start to pay more attention to hyperspace and look in worry as a the tunnel almost cuts me off as the walls around me start to slowly collapse. The walls appear to be slowly destabilizing as this happens, making them look increasingly dull.

"Oh no...you are NOT beating me that easily!" I silently yell as I suddenly give off a bust of power out of my upper 2 wings to be fired into the the tesla coil. Strangely this magical energy moves much faster then light and is quickly absorbed into the ship's systems. I push through the collapsing in walls as they cave in around me. We begin to accelerate faster then the dimension can cave in. The dimension of hyperspace implodes behind the Innovation as it violently pushes through the ever increasing opening in the center of it all. The opening gets wider and wider until the dimension is almost as wide as it was earlier. All around the ship I see hyperspace start to slowly reform as stands of void become less and less apparent. In normal time about 4 minutes have past sense I've entered hyperthought but to me it's felt like hours with dodging countless rifts. More rifts rip open out of the walls but given my increased speed I have less time to dodge them. One bursts out on my port side, I narrowly escape it only for one to suddenly come into view once again. I turn away but once again more show up and I barely dodge them. More enemy ships come into view, my laser familiars were left behind and died from when I had to accelerate. I'm going too fast for them to be useful now so I'll half to dodge them all myself. A fleet of battleships controlled by flagships and sarounded by fighters come up fast and pass me in all directions as I fly around their formations to avoid hitting any of them. These ships are more advanced then the once the others fought earlier...we must be getting close. The ships fire at me, knowing that from their perspective I must appear to be a silver and blue blur with a red and black trail of distortion behind me and dimensional mutilation most undoubtedly caused by their master. Not surprisingly it does not take much to dodge their fire as I am mainly focused on dodging them and the rifts.

"You can't outsmart me forever Slayer!" I silently yell to no one in particular as the rifts begin to become less and less. I drop out of hyperthought.

"V! What's our ETA!?" I say with urgency.

"90 seconds! By this time Slayer has disabled more safety protocols and is beginning to shut down the portal generator as the power is absorbed!" Says V with surprisingly no distortion.

"That's a given V, but will we make it!?" I ask as I keep an eye on hyperspace for any abnormalities

"I-I don't know...F-fingers crossed! The ship can't take much more punishment though!" she says much to her dismay. Hyperspace starts to fall apart behind us as cracks in the dimension start to form on the once colorful walls. Rifts burst from the walls but a seemingly stretched out across the walls like smeared paint on a paper. More ships pour through but this time it's just a swarm of fighters. So many ships appear before us that the white blue shifted edge of hyperspace fades to black as they grow closer and closer.

"V! Divert 2% power to the shields and activate the atomic destabilization felid around them!" and with those words said the window flashes bright white for a moment for a hexagonal shield to appear to fade away. We make contact with the swarm of ships only for them to be shredded by the shields as countless explosions engulf the Innovation. We continue to push through this seemingly endless wave of ships but no end is in sight. Countless flashes of light cover the ship in a blanket of white hot flames as we violently force our way through the wall of fighters.

"60 seconds!" yells V with worry in her voice. The swarm of ships is still endlessly pelting the atomic destabilization felid their sparkling remains encase the ship.

"When we reach the other side we'll be going much faster then the speed of causality! The universe we're about to enter is a weak one so expect to see some crazy shit when we get there!" I yell as the turbulence finally starts to set in.

"Chaos is what I do best girly!" says Discord with a smirk on his face.

"Cram it Discord!" I yell as I overcharge the engines to make them fire as intensely as before. The swarm of ships starts to finally break up, leaving nothing in my path except for a few rifts. I bank left to dodge one that explodes to me right. Warning signs appear on my HUD indicating an engine failure is imminent, alarms start to go off as the lights fade to red.

"30 seconds! Final shut down sequence initiated!" says V with a grave panicked tone in her voice. The hard light floor flickers grows dim for a moment but quickly returns to normal. Fires erupt on multiple decks as multiple system failures occur. My HUD starts to distort slightly but regains visual. V puts the final count down on the HUD. As we fall through hyperspace less and less dimensional rifts occur, making me apply more and more power to the main engines. I sense the cosmic strings of a small artificial universe nearing me, I smirk at this.

"Time to let you ALL know why I am called the Incoming Fire..." I say in a deathly tone as my eyes start to glow dimly of every magic type imaginable deep inside my pin point sized pupils.

Author's Note

Released a mere 27 minutes before the year ends! I'd say that's an unintentional academy record! Happy new year my dear viewers!

[33]The Incoming Fire

Forgive me for potentially confusing you. The speed of light actually has nothing to do with light. It is only limited by the speed of causality. Which just so happens to BE the speed of light. You experience time distortion at any speed but this is more apparent the faster you get to light speed. The faster an object goes, the slower time becomes. Of corse Nova knows how to manipulate this to extreme levels but even she is still subject to those laws. That is if she wants them to, she IS a pureblood after all. They kinda invented the laws of physics in their universes, to an extent. Think of it this way, you enter a multiplayer game with a bad connection and some one with a sword lags and the next thing you know your dead with a massive slice wound in your torso. Because the speed of causality with in that game is limited due to the bad connection the player seemed to instantly teleport as you freeze for a moment. This is kinda like that but more...plausible? Yeah lets go with that.

But before you read on in the event you actually read this question...do you know what overkill is? OF CORSE YOU DON'T! Let me educate you in the Boarding School of Combat bitches!

"V! Divert 50% power to the G force dampeners and the anti G felid! Next I need you to give the rest to the shield generators!" I say as I begin to calculate millions of steps ahead of what is about to happen.

"B-buUuut thAt will turn off the engines!" says V as the rumblings from deep inside the ship start to fade away as the G force dampeners start to activate.

"You'll find out why soon enough!" I say just as we begin to uncontrollably fall through hyperspace. I sense the other side of the portal is coming up fast.

"Brace yourselves!" mere seconds after I finish that statement hyperspace vanishes around us as we enter normal space once again. At that instant the G force dampeners all fail at once. I call upon the quantum felid that encases us all to redirect all the momentum into myself in one quadrillionth of a planck time. The Innovation slows down dramatically in an incomprehensibly short amount of time but I don't. I'm suddenly launched out of the cockpit through the shield, yet I'm going so much faster then the speed of causality that I phase through the shield. I leave the physics engine core's sheilding in a ridiculously short amount of time to then subject me to the natural laws of this universe. Time itself starts to fall out of my control and slows down to 0.000000000000000000000000000000001 the speed of causality. The universe around me seems to freeze as I lie almost motionlessly just outside the physics engine core's bubble shield outside the Innovation. Normally the dimensional energy generated by a self replicating universe would be flowing into the gateway but now...I see that it's power is being redirected into a lone figure encased in light. My HUD freezes due to the lack of normal time around me. I cast a weak time spell around me to unfreeze my tech. I decide not to unfreeze myself as I know full well from my perspective of time I should reach the rouge pureblood in around 42 million years, also it would put even more strain on the cosmic strings. This gives me the perfect opportunity to analyze my situation and come up with almost any conceivable strategy to waste her sorry ass. I smirk at the notion that I'll be able to predict her every move yet I have a 42 million year intellectual head start.

"Power isn't everything dumbass." I silently say as my sound waves can not travel in a vacuum, let alone while time is moving so slowly. I start to feel the universe fracture.

"No doubt caused by the sudden kinetic stress I'm causing...the gateway should be fine but I doubt anything in front of me will be spared...like shooting a super MAC round into a giant ball of solid glass...it ain't gonna be pretty..." I say once more, only for my voice to fall to deaf ears. I begin to take in my surroundings in great detail as I motionlessly lunge at the rouge pureblood. The Gateway Alpha is faintly glowing with red lights as dimensional power is sucked from the rifts. The containment rings that would normally keep the power controlled are shattered to large pieces. By now the fragments of the rings drifted far away from from their resting points are are now thousands of miles away from them. The portal behind me closes at such a fast rate that even I can see it close when time is moving at this slow speed. Even now I see the portal collapsing in on itself, meaning if I left any later then I might not have made it. I feel the cosmic felid of strings around me start to fracture and strain.

"Well...I suppose now is as good as time as any to listen to some classical music from Earth 1" And with that said I access my personal data base to listen to The Flower Duet Lakmé as I contemplate on strategies.

10 million years later

Nothing much has changed around me other then the fact I've moved few hundred miles from the Innovation's outer most shield. I made sure to aim for the rouge pureblood. My scanners are useless, mainly because of the unhealthy amount of damage I'm causing by simply moving. I make sure to freeze my facial expression to an enraged tone with my face giving the impression I'm screaming with determination. I have no doubt I will when I make physical contact with the still unknown pureblood a few thousand miles in front of me. In the first few million years I've perfected the best strategies to use if my first blow doesn't kill the pureblood. I may be able to survive a hit like this but even I would not easily walk it off. Especially sense both my arms are raised in front of me with both my elemental energy swords are deployed with the element set to atomic destabilization with power set to 10/10 for maximum effectiveness.

10 more million years later

By now I've prepared myself to make contact with the pureblood and I can start to make out some of the details of her. I'm about half way there but I can only make out a faint black figure of an winged girl with her limbs spread out being almost entirely encased in light. I begin to meditate with in my own mind.

20 million years later

I make my final approach to the pureblood. I snap myself back to reality to find her charred skin. Her 8 wings indicate she is over level 80 and therefore wise and powerful. Each of her wings are black and glowing violate with huge amounts of dark energy. Her eyes glow bright white with deep ultra violate pupils. I know full well that she can't survive long with so much power inside her even if she's an eternal pureblood. But given her level I'd say she has enough time to kill me and take over the Empire if I give her the chance. This close to the anomaly it's not surprising that my HUD is distorting and glitching due to the interference but even I can deduce who it is. The pureblood before me is Raugna. She is indeed a circle member but she is has always been who to disagree with almost anything I say, regardless of popular vote and or advantages. Despite her inability to see logic in many areas she has proven to be insightful in many others. It saddens me to see her in this state as I slowly enter her bubble of stolen energy.

"Wait...energy...no...no no no no no no no NO! H-how did I not see it before?!" I think to myself as I begin to realize the horrible mistake I made.

"Energy is SEXUALLY AROUSING! How could I have been so stupid!" I scream with in my mind as my arms enter her bubble of energy. I unfreeze my crotch to clench my lower lips at the thought of me being aroused in such an inappropriate time. I refreeze my crotch as to make me last as long as possible for the hell I am to endure soon.

"Sure my shield will hold for a few years but I'm not wearing my flight suit! My neuron suit isn't designed to keep energy out but to suck in! It doesn't help that the enchants on it from earlier are destroyed from my battle with Epsilon. And sense time is almost frozen and it would completely idiotic to unfreeze time because i might destroy the universe if I do! And I can't use any of the excess power to prevent this because the universe can't take much more punishment! And by extension the Gateway is in danger! Which means...I'll be horny for the next 2 million years and theirs nothing I can do to relive it..." I think with shocked words as I should begin to become aroused when the bubble of energy engulfs my chest.

"In all my years of living I never would have imagined this would happen...ME of all people! I'm the blood who invented a dooms day device that turns a star into a giant metastable bee hive for fuck sake!" I complain as I inwardly sigh in defeat, knowing that I must go through this sexual frustration to combine it with my desire to incapacitate or kill Raugna.

361,049 years later

I've partly entered the bubble of dimensional energy and the power starts to engulf my chest. My shields have vanished despite my best efforts. I begin to feel helpless and furious that I half to deal with Raugna before I release.

"Fuuuuuuck...When I get out of this you are so dead..." I think to myself as I get wet.

1 million years later

I moan with frustration as my thoughts begin to drift towards suggestive areas as well as many different ways of killing Raugna in a large variety of bloody ways for making me do this. Unknown to me my eyes slowly fade to pink with pleasure that is never satisfied as my genitals are continuously ignored, forever fueling my desire to end this.

500,000 years later

"KILL! KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL!" I chant in my head as my lack of stimulated arousement changes to unadulterated rage, hell bent on ending the life of Raugna and Slayer once and for all. My eyes have faded to red with blood magic as a sign of my completely enraged state of mind.

250,000 years later

My moans of pleasure and death threat chants have turned to screams of rage with one purpose. Kill Raugna. My blood red eyes have faded to darker and darker hues of red until they turn pitch black as the surface of a lonely black hole in the middle of a supervoid. My wings however fade to bight white as they pulse with power fueled by my unrelenting desire to kill Raugna.

125,000 years later

"I'm so close...I can SEE your broken spirit Raugna! YOU'LL NEVER ESCAPE WHAT FATE HAS BROGHT UPON YOU!" I think with the intent to pointlessly taunt to her, knowing that she can't hear me. At this time I'm mere inches away from her.

...Later...

"I'm so close...so very close...come ON! ...FUCK!" I yell but much to my amazement I feel the tips of my swords FINALLY make contact with Raugna's chest. Time starts to slowly accelerate to normal speed. To my dismay this takes another few years to finish. As this happens however I phase though Raugna, letting me see her insides pulsing with power that clearly does not belong to her. Finally my right foot leaves her body as I finish phasing through her just at time resumes to normal. Mere moments after this I stop a few feet away from her. A few seconds pass but I know full well what's happening to her. The hard light shield back on the Innovation I phased through earlier suddenly shatters. I smirk at this as I turn to her. My eyes lock on to a frozen Raugna as the power stops flowing into her, frozen in place just as she is. She starts to vibrate for a few seconds as she screams with pain. Then in that instant, she explodes. Every particle of her body rips apart due to the amount of force that was applied to it a few seconds ago. Her explosion expanse like a one directional supernova exploding in my face yet I remain unfazed by it. The explosion subsides, leaving the Gateway and the Innovation unaffected by the one directional blast and leaving a vast nebula behind me. A delayed reaction? I'll half to research this when I get the chance. Unfortunately I know very well that it is very likely that one of Raugna's particles survived. She rematerializes to my left with a sadistic smirk on her face but I can easily tell she's surprised to see me, let alone with the uneasy vibe I'm giving her with my apparent silence and lack of ass kicking.

"Why so quiet your highness? Aren't you going to give me a ear shattering speech on why I'm wrong and your right? Or do you simply want to kill me like those pesky rebels?" she says with a snobby tone, clearly not expecting me be up to par with her massive ego.

"Kill you?" I say calmly as I begin to chuckle a little.

"No...w-we're way past that...I'm going to FUCKING DESTROY YOU!" I yell with such force that it would give Luna's royal Canterlot voice sound like a grain of dust falling from an old pot. As I scream those words my calm and collected composer instantly breaks down to utterly shock any who see me. My hair rises from my head in an unorganized fashion as I give off a shockwave to unintentionally increase my power, making me even closer to becoming Hyper. My wings flicker orange for a moment due to my spiritual anomaly as I aggressively flare them, ready to attack my target with ranged weapons, or move in any direction to either dodge or attack with melee weapons. The moment I finish that statement cracks in reality suddenly bust into existence behind me, only adding to my surreal appearance. These cracks open up around and behind me by yet a bubble of stabilized space seems to prevent the cracks from touching me. The white openings give off no heat, no radiation, no form of light, yet they can clearly be seen by anyone and die as soon as they touch it. These cracks scatter out to the farthest reaches of the universe as parts of it break apart. The universe itself is barely holding itself together due to the emergency cosmic system of laws I installed into all artificial universes. These cracks effortlessly blow through terrorist ships and cause them all to explode. I deploy my energy swords from my gauntlets, element set to hard light power level 10. I know very well that I can change the power level to suit my combat needs at any time to get the most hits and damage.

"I see that the Comet Pod MIRX is still working...a testament to your misplaced technological greed." says Raugna with a scowl.

"Please...y-you wouldn't know greed if I smacked you in the face with an aetherium hammer!" I yell as cursed blood tears start to fall from my eyes. As I scream those words I sweep my right arm in her direction to shoot 5 magical flares to temporally blind her. She dodges my attack but finds that I'm no where to be found.

"You honestly think you can kill ME even though your temporally more powerful? Being a leader isn't just about power you moron!" I yell from all directions yet no where to be found. Raugna looks franticly for me for a moment but looks down with a smirk.

"Cheep trick hiding in a different dimension but that won't work this time!" Raugna spreads her wings out to latch onto the 5th dimension to yank me out of it. I get impaled by her wing and get violently yanked out to be pulled back into normal space. Now in her grasp She pulls me up to her with her wing still lodged deep with in my torso, blood leaking from it as I stare at her with anger and pain.

"You have lead your people into a new age of prosperity...but this is where all of your sins finally catch up to you dear sweet Nova. This is for all of those who you failed to save over the years. You can't escape death forever. No one can. Not even me. But with the time I DO have left I will end your tyranny!" says Raugna as her voice begins to distort with the amount of energy inside her, clearly she can barely control it but I can't underestimate her. I can't afford to that, not anymore. My body turns to plasma as my cybernetics dematerialize with my gauntlets on my arms, legs, and my neck brace fragmenting itself into infinitely thin shards to fallow me. I fly straight through her, being sure to avoid colliding with any of her atoms. My comet shards however slice right through her body at different angles. My body rematerializes behind her as I rise both my arms up with one of the comet shards transforming into the gravity hammer I used on Epsilon. Still shocked by the feeling of a pureblood just flowing right through her like a ghost I smash her shoulder with the hammer to send her flying away from me. She recovers and flies right at me. I hold my swords in an X pattern to effectively block her attack. Her arms morph into spikes and try to relentlessly stab me. I enter hyperthought for time to slow to a crawl and so I can dodge her attacks. Suddenly Raugna's attacks get much faster as she tries to stab me with her dark magic charged arms. I have no doubt that she has entered hyperthought as well to keep up with me.

"You can't dodge forever you HIGHNESS! Don't you have some test subjects to get back to!?" yells Raugna, successfully smacking my to the side. I recover effortlessly.

"Trillions, but my question is how the hell you have so much power inside you and STILL manage to hit like a man?" I taunt with a smirk as Raugna snarls at me with rage to lunge at me once again to hit me. I then vibrate my atoms just under the speed of light. This makes my image blur and distort. Upon contact with my body I gain infinite mass, Raugna's spike arms shatter upon contact of my skin. She lurches back in pain as I latch onto her with my left energy whip to pull her in close. With my left arm I impale her in the chest with my elemental sword. In a fraction of a second I change the element type to blood magic at max power. My energy swords pulse white for a moment before fading to dark red with small sparks of black light. Raugna's blood starts to boil and dissolve inside her body as each of her cells explode with violent acidic chemical reactions, heavily damaging her blood vessels. I know very well that this would normally kill anyone, but I'm fighting a dangerously overcharged pureblood. She can take it, but that doesn't mean it won't hurt like hell. Raugna screams in pain as she freezes, leaving me another opening to attack. I relentlessly slash away at her ever dissolving body as I cast a gravity spell on her to keep her body from flying apart. Blood splatters in all directions as my arms start to blur at the speeds I stab her. Suddenly Raugna's particles expand in all directions to form a gas. If blows away from me to reform into her restored physical form a few miles away with me flying right at her as fast as I can with my blades aimed in her direction. Moments before I collide with her I freeze in place with my blade mere centimeters from her face.

"You are going to be harder to kill then I thought..." she says calmly with a sadistic smile slowly forming on her face. Every atom in my body starts to slowly pull itself apart. She must have cast a precision anti gravity spell...fuck she defiantly knows how to inflict pain. I start to wince as each of my cells start to expand as my skin gets pressed up against my suit, making it rip in a few places. This has been one terribly perverted day...

"A-are you trying to make this into a clopfic?" I say with much strain in my voice, making it sound slightly deeper and scratchy.

"Don't flatter yourself you perverted bitch." says Raugna with a small blush but disgusted expression. She smacks me in the face to send my away from her atomic grasp. I recover from the hit but do not make a move to giver her the illusion I'm knocked out. She flies up to my side. Blood gushing out of my sides as the holes in my body close slower then usual

"How pathetic. Is this really the best you can do? I've heard so many great things about you Nova." taunts Raugna with a cocky tone. A red magic sphere of runes appears all around me. Dimensional chains shoot out of them to latch onto me. The chains dig deep into my body but I show no signs of pain. I open my eyes with a smirk, much to Raugna's surprise. The energy gets sucked into my form as the dimensional chains disintegrate into tiny grains of fading dust. The rune that surrounds me vanishes as the hybrid of dark blood magic spells vanish. My foe widens her eyes in surprise that I manage to do this. I begin to laugh as my wings give off a sudden pulse of light to dim into red light instead of their normal blue.

"Magic is MY domain fool." I give off a shockwave as my power increase once more, still unknown to Raugna. She is too focused on trying to find a way to kill me. Charged with dark power I give off a shockwave of dark energy to send Raugna flying just over twice the speed of light away from me. I catch up to her in seconds to materialize a large rock planet in her path. Of corse she has infinite mass at her speeds so she would destroy it by simply entering the atmosphere. Strange, we seemed to have ended up inside the nebula from earlier. A young proto star is forming 114 million miles away from us. I latch onto Raugna with my energy grapple and reverse the power of my gravity jets. I stop in a fraction of a second but Raugna is yanked back by the Gs. Taking this opportunity I lunge at her once more and punch her in the back right where her wing sockets are. Raugna's wings are 8 large black bat like wings with a leathery skin and have violate glowing edges. Upon contact I feel bones fracture and tissue snap inside her. To my surprise she closes her wings to hit me from both sides. This is why you should weaponize your wings, the attack only stuns me with a paralysis spell. The spell does not last long given my natural purification magic but it's long enough for Raugna to spin around and stab me in the chest once more. This time however I feel my insides start to crystalize with dark power as my cells start to die one by one. My skin starts to darken in some places as the paralysis spell wears off. Now free from the spell I try to move but find my mussels are too damaged to move. I become a fully converted dark crystal statue of myself with a pained expression on my face.

"Pathetic." says Raugna with a disappointed voice. She just now notices she's hovering just above a rocky felid from the planet I just made. She throws my statue to the ground with a satisfactory toss.

"Well...it seems all your adventures was nothing but tacky propaganda after all." says Raugna as she lands in front of me. My legs shattered on the ground around me with radioactive blood gushing from the stubs. I'm wedged into the stone with my wings spread out, still unchanged from the conversion but lifeless.

"And from the looks of it...you were wrong about the "Empire" falling apart in your death." laughs Raugna as she puts her fists on her hips with a triumphant stance.

"You choose to reject the simple fact that a realistic god can in fact exist. The humans have foolish views of what a celestial being can and cannot do when their feeble minds can only get them so far...But we are not humans..." says V from my headset set to speaker mode so that Raugna can hear, much to her disappointment. A crack in the pitch black crystal suddenly bursts open, revealing a bright white light shining through the dusty air.

"We are the mothers of nature..." I say with a disturbingly calm voice and a soft expression of a kind hearted mother trying to make her child happy. A dim light starts to flow into my wings as life flows back into them.

"We are the flowers of life..." I whisper gently as to calm the world around resulting in small flowers growing from the scattered crystal as grass grows around it. Another crack splits apart the crystal as small etherial flames erupt from them. The crystal starts to atomically destabilize and slowly melt onto my body.

"We are the guardians of peace..." I spout with the determination of a valkyrie from Valhalla. I stand up right as my wings rise up behind me pulsing with harmonic power.

"We are the fires of innovation..." I say with depression in such a way that only a true scientist could understand. To simply want to know more about the laws of existence and beyond. My wings start to glow brighter as I give off a single spark of electricity that arches around me.

"We are the spirits of reality..." I say with a more serious demeanor as I spread my arms to light up some of the unimaginably thin cosmic strings that make up the fabric of reality. Raugna recoils with a slightest bit of awe that I am saying the pureblood legend with such emotion, such power...said in such a way that a being unlimited longevity and such an advanced age could only say with the vast amount of experience one would gain from living 153 megacycles.

"We ARE the Purebloods! We are the ones that will rise from the ashes time and time again until we cannot fight anymore! It is our DUTY to vanquish any foe! To help any in need! To decide who lives or dies! To transform, create, and destroy what ever we wish while keeping our best creations safe from each other, outside forces, and our selves! LIFE ITSELF!" I chant with pure determination and anger to the fallen pureblood that floats before me with a shocked but angry expression in her eyes. She lunges at me once more but is pushed back by a defining light bending shockwave that cracks the stone under me but keeps the plants at my feet unharmed. In those newly formed cracks in stone more flora grows to grace this once lifeless world with the gift of greenery. My body glows white as every atom that makes up my very being transforms into a flawlessly mixed hybrid of both energy and magic. My neuron suit disintegrates to reveal my highly energetic feminine figure to all who see me. My skin glows white as bolts of electricity arch around me of varying colors. I spread my arms to let my power flow into them. All 10 of my wings are regally flared but still remain unchanged other then the fact that the once black Dileoum finish has changed to pure white. The once iconic blue lines that cover them fade to resemble all visible forms of light in a blinding display of pure color. My eyes turn black with the power of existence deep inside them as the have an etherial trail of magic fallowing them. My pupils still remain a ghostly dot in the middle of my otherwise pitch black eyes.

"That's the egotistical jackass I know! Looks like not all your propaganda was bullshit!" yells Raugna with satisfaction, as if she wanted this.

"You're insane! ...Only a fool would intentionally let me reach this power level..." I say with an increasingly determined and misleadingly calm tone as we lock eyes.

"How many times must we tell you that propaganda was never used for political purposes in the history of the Empire." says V from my headset, still set to speaker mode for Raugna hear. Her voice sounds stable, she must have restabilized from the overcharge.

"They say the few that see your hyper form usually die. Now that I have stolen the power of the Gateway itself you stand no chance. This is the day I finally extinguish the Incoming Fire!" says Raugna as she gives off a shockwave to power herself up, her arms spread out to let her own power radiate around her as she gives off the wave of kinetic energy.

"My fire is far too hot to be burnt out...behold...the power of a TRILLION SUNS!" I yell as I give off a shockwave powerful enough to reduce half the planet to dust. Raugna is propelled back by this but recovers to see half the planet gone and sarounded by large cluster of ejected super heated rock. Raugna grits her teeth at the sight of a bright dot of light in the epicenter of the now heavily damaged planet. I fire a hugely bright quasar at Raugna as super heated mass, corrupted energy, and magic shoot out of my hands as a blinding display of terrifying power all being launched at one target. Raugna.

Necra

V is letting loose an entire fleet of ships around the Innovation to defend the ship and the Gateway. I don't know if her processing power has restored but she ensured us all that she has recovered. We all stand aboard the bridge to watch the display before us through V's scanners...when suddenly we see a shockwave blasts off half a newly formed planet! Only for Raugna to be sent a few million miles away from it. Then...the brightest beam of destruction I have ever seen shoots out from the cracking world to collide with an equally powerful beam coming from Raugna. They both collide to release yet another shockwave so powerful it rips open the cracks in reality in the area as the two angry nature spirits fight for superiority. The HUD on the screen reads large amounts of time distortion in the area. One second here is 70 years there and slowly rising. Cracks in reality open up around the sources of the beams and slowly creep up behind them.

"We gotta do something!" I yell with worry.

"No, when she starts fighting, few can survive coming even remotely close to the destruction that ensues." says V from the intercom.

"Well I'm not just going to sit here and do nothing!" I yell at the ceiling with anger. A blue skinned human composed of hard light appears to my side, surprising everyone in the room except for the 2 angels. Her skin is etched with dim glowing white thin lines that cover parts of her body. Thicker white lines flow up her legs to meet up where they meet only for a strange form of clothing to cover her torso. This skin tight cloth is composed of hard light yet anyone can clearly see it doesn't leave much to the perverted imagination. The edges of this suit are lined with a black line to meet up with her skin as it presses comfortably against her body. A thick black line comes up from her crotch to end at her neck with dim white lines that fade in and out of view every few seconds slowly. On either side of this circuitry like lines composed of violate light line her sides in a flawlessly symmetrical pattern. Her chest has two midnight blue lines that fallow the undercarriage of her breasts. These lines meet up with her arms and flow with them to reach her hands as her suit seems to fade into her skin in the area. Her face has well defined features of a human but her eyes are off putting with their crosshair like appearance and small orbiting circles that orbit her pupils. Her hair is straight and wavy as it curves into her neck only slightly. The being before us is indeed solid yet we all get the impression that she is not actually here...as if VALeRY's core is some how very far away yet so very close at the same time.

"Arrogance will only get you killed on these types of missions. I know you want to help her but she's on her own in this one. She can handle herself in a fight." says V but this time from the hard light avatar before us.

"Y-you...l-look..." stutters Rarity in bafflement.

"What we can do is hope for the best. And try to prevent any collateral damage should the fight enter a populated area." says V with an increasingly sorrowful tone as she slightly looks down.

"Are they really crazy enough to do THAT!?" says Twilight with a panicked tone.

"Nova may be a mad scientist but she would never do that. If anything Raugna might drag her into a population dense city. I'm having her universe searched as we speak. I can't let any more tricks pop up and stab us in the back." says V as she holds her hands behind her back and looks onto the epic display of beam collisions outside. Sparks flying in almost all directions as they attempt to knock each other off balance.

"I'm getting the feelin this ain't yar first rodeo?" asks Applejack as she walks over to V's avatar.

"Hardly...in fact when they finish this move I think it would be best to change locations to a new universe. This one could collapse if they keep this up." says V with a small hint of worry.

"What happens if the universe collapses?" asks Twilight.

"We don't have time to describe that horrible scenario." says V to get the others back on topic. She squints her eyes slightly at the chaos outside as she scowls. A new thought comes into her processors deep inside the ship.

"But if the fight leads home...then It's personal..." she says in a dark voice as her white lines flicker violet and her skin flashes red for a moment.

Nova

"Hmmm...I'm picking up large amounts of time dilatation. So, this little stand off will only last a few seconds if not minutes to the outside observer? I can deal with that, but I don't know if the universe can. If I drag this on much longer then the structural integrity of the universe will fail, not that it already is but I need to draw her away if not end this." I think to myself to assess the situation. At the point where our beams contact a disk of crushed subatomic particles exist. This disk would normally become a singularity but so much force is being applied to it on both sides that what would otherwise be a black hole is squeezed into a disk giving off continuous ripples in space time. I fire my wing jets at ever increasing power in an attempt to push me forward to over power Raugna. I can feel her start to falter and her beam weakening ever so slowly. She can't keep this up much longer as I continue to push forward into her. I stop firing and teleport away to give her the illusion that I died. Raugna's quasar beam instantly blasts outward into the disc of black hole matter as it quickly collapses into a sphere. She stops firing to watch her quasar get sucked into the singularity to suck in the matter in a huge accretion disk to then blast out 2 natural quasars of its own out of both of it's poles.

"W-what?" says Raugna, thinking for a brief moment she won.

"Not even close!" I say as Raugna tries to block my attack from behind but did not expect me to punch her in the side from where she was facing just a moment before. A beam of dimensional power shoots from the direction of the Innovation near the Gateway and opens into a large stable portal to a different universe. Knowing this must be V's doing I fly into the portal and drag Raugna along with my being latched onto my grapple. We appear over a blue spiral galaxy filled with a large quantity of dust. I feel a warm comforting feeling wash over me.

"Welcome...to Homebase Universe." I let go of Raugna to let her see the majesty of one of my most magnificent creations. We see galaxies all around us in an orbital pattern all revolving around a single point far beyond our view. Each galaxy shimmering with suns, most of them having planets and life of their own. The galaxies all slowly swirl around the calm and lonely supermassive black holes in their centers. All of them placed next to each other with the poles of their black holes aimed towards the center of the universe in an epic display of beauty. This makes all the flat sides of the galaxies face a single direction, the center of the universe. Raugna looks towards the center of the universe where all the galaxies orbit only to see that it is blocked by the many rings of properly spaced galaxies. Yet what she sees surprises her. The light form countless galaxies blur to add up on one another to appear as a detailed swirling bulge of light. This bulge is actually the collective light of galaxies yet around it we can see rings of light orbiting it. These rings are bands of even more galaxies that span the cosmos to grace us all with their eternal beauty. The rings get bigger and bigger the further they get from the center and do not orbit on a flat plane, but tilts. Like the huge elliptical galaxy with every trapped photon replaced with a galaxy and reorganized to fit the pinnacle of cosmic order. The amount of order and chaos that exists before us is enough to petrify any who look upon it with flawless awe. These bands of light reach up behind us to show us closer galaxies. It's almost as if some one made Saturn's rings countless times bigger and replaced each particle of dust with an entire galaxy and make more of those orbit a single point in an unorganized fashion. The closest band to us appears to be a glittering stream of light as it fades into a spacious cluster of galaxies. Behind us is the still open portal and a the band of galaxies. The Innovation flies over our heads as it shows it's flickering engines on the verge of failing. Many more ships fallow suit but many more fly into the portal as many warp in.

"We're on the edge of the galactically colonized part of Homebase Universe." says V to both of us over the coms.

"I'm sending in a repair class fleet to fix the mess in the Gateway Universe as well as a star class fleet to dispose of the stragglers. You know what to do." says V to inform me of what's happening. I notice Raugna flinches out of her stupor and looks at me scowling.

"What's wrong Raugna? I know you've been here before. Or was that just a mass illusion spell? I don't know I can't keep track of all the spells and inventions I create on a weekly basis." I say only to make her mad. It works, to say the least. Raugna glows red with rage and lunges at me so fast that I don't have enough time to dodge. We're sent flying away from the cluster of ships and portals. I push her away.

"Woah woah woah girl. I may be gay but you ain't my type." I taunt even further as I give her a wink and materialize a pink heart next to my face to give me a strangely cute face despite my godly appearance. Raugna fires an ice spike at me. I enter hyperthought once more.

"So, here we have a high level ice spell, upon contact it should instantly freeze the target. Even if I didn't have well over 4 milliseconds to dodge before it hits it would simply melt and turn to steam. My body temperature is well over 60 trillion and rising. SO! Her goal is to disorient me with the steam and get the upper hand? No...no more fucking around. We're in MY universe now. Time to show her why it's a bad idea to fuck with me and steal my stuff. In the most extreme possible way." I think to myself as I let the ice spike vaporize around me. Raugna flies in for an attack but does not find me there.

"This is the day your destiny is rejected." I say in an icy tone. I single energy grapple swoops in from behind her to latch onto her leg and violently pull her out of the growing cloud of mist. My swords are set to poison at max power. I sweep my right sword across her body to cut off her leg while I bring my other sword up to stab her in the crotch. Blood splatters in all directions in 0 gravity as my poison sets inside her to lay dormant unknown to her knowledge. Before she has a chance to look at me I change my sword element to hard light. Just when I see Raugna's angry face I fire a kinetic blast into her to send her careening away from me. I fly straight at her for us both to fall into a portal. Raugna rights herself and regenerates her body as she gets one good look at me. She sees a purely determined scowl on my face with daggers in my eyes. If looks could kill, she'd be dead a thousand times over. We warped on a planet in a near by galaxy, upon seeing where we are I stop instantly. All around us are tall buildings as we stand on a now empty intersection. Cars tried to enter it swerve out of the way and crash into the stores and other cars.

"You think you can stop me just like that? No...It is you who needs reeducating." My tone grows increasingly cold as I finish that statement. The emergency siren goes off as evacuation alerts appear on the advertising screens and holographic projectors. The humans scatter away from us, leaving the city empty. Raugna stomps the ground with a gravity spell to make the cars hover off the ground. She punches one to send the shattered automobile in my direction only for each piece to liquify in my presence. The molten metal and glass falls to the ground with the smell of burning rubber from the ruined tires. The temperature around me starts to get so high that the ground stats to glow as a near by corpse bursts into flames. I lunge at Raugna only to fly over her, before she could process what's happening she gets dragged by her arm against the building, shattering glass windows as her skin is particularly shredded. She recovers and rights herself to materialize a hard light shield under her legs to surf atop the super heated shattering glass. I fly up the tower to drag Raugna behind me, knowing that the glass cannot hurt her I give off a pulse of magic to enchant every shard of melted glass I come in contact with to ignite pain and biological damage to any who touch it. I turn left to fly around into the airspace above another street with rows upon rows of buildings on all my sides. I fly past a light speed train rail built into the skyscrapers only for me to get pulled back. I turn around to see Raugna broke free of my grapple and chasing the rail.

Equestria

"Why doesn't anything cool ever happen to us?" asks Cadence as she looks up at the sky in the middle of a still in tact Ponyville with the birds chirping against the gentle blow of the wind. They both stand in the train station with a few guards, hoping they could visit Serena, Necra and Twilight.

A piece of paper blows into Shining's face, he levitates it away from him to read it. "Because...we're not important enough?" says Shining Armor reading a small piece of paper in a skeptical tone.

"Well I think we're pretty important." says Cadence, walking over to Shining in an annoyed voice.

"No, I was just reading this piece of paper...but now that I think of it...it may be right." says Shining as he begins to realize that their jobs could easily be replaced with a low level AI like the automated system program on the Sirus.

"You stink!" shouts a random pony in the background.

Nova

I fly after the train, quickly accelerating to keep up with it. My scans indicate it's a passenger train with a large quantity of cargo loaded into the back cars. It has a sleek white tubular appearance with each freight car is windowless. Raugna is flying just above the last car with her blades aimed with ill intent. I fly up behind her and deploy a shield in front of her blades. My shield stays strong against the impact as her arm blade bounce off. I grab her again with my grapple to pull her off the train. She breaks free before I go in for another slice at her. I block her punch with my fists. Upon contact a shockwave blasts out, destroying the last car of the train and the rail. Raugna gets sent back as I chase her, catching up I materialize the gravity hammer from the comet pod as a single shard assembles it once more in a fraction of a second. I swing the hammer at Raugna to send her flying out of the atmosphere with me close behind. I detect a hyperspace portal open up in her path we both slip into it.

Raugna flies through hyperspace aiming towards the center of the universe. She slows down dramatically to get behind me just under light speed. I fly up towards the wall to be mere inches above the dimensional friction wall. Raugna fires a kinetic blast at me as she fires beams of dark crystal spells at me. I dodge them by spiraling around the tunnel at faster and faster speeds. Raugna keeps on shooting where I am and not where I'm going to be, a foolish mistake for a pureblood of her caliber. The hyperspeace tunnel twists and turns as I mold the walls to my liking. The tunnel starts to grow unstable and vanish around us as we fall back into normal space. To Raugna's surprise we don't damage the cosmic strings of the universe by going so much faster then light and even the fact that time does not distort at these speeds. It's as if light itself is much faster then normal here...and causality is even higher then that.

"What!? HOW!?" yells Raugna in disbelief that I managed to force us both out of hyperspace and some how made the universe itself different then the others. We notice that we have left the galaxy all together and are about to enter another ring of galaxies.

"It is clear to me that you're not an expert in quantum physics. You call yourself a pureblood? No...clearly you are not the mastermind behind this complex plan." I say with an increasingly cold tone as we approach a spiral galaxy.

"Right again Nova...But you'll never find out who. Because after this day...you shall die." says Raugna with little to no emotion to her words.

"I've been fighting your faction for YEARS! No...on this day I will show them ALL what happens when you wrong me!" I yell with a "small" amount of rage in my voice. We enter the ring of galaxies just as I latch onto Raugna once more with my grapples. She manages to dodge my first attempt but I fire the other grapple out of my left arm and violently yank her flailing body towards me. She makes contact to make her legs kick off of me but I yank her towards me once again as I am not phased by it. I manage to slice through her once more in the torso, exposing her insides. I cram my hand into her opening and pull out one of her ribs and stab her in the eye with it. Blood splatters all over me only to vaporize due to my increasing body temperature and power. Screaming in pain I shove my other hand into her open wound as I twist the severed rib into her eye socket. I tightly grab onto her small intestines to aggressively pull them out and whip it around the back of her neck to pull her head toward mine to headbutt her so hard that her skull fractures as my scanner spikes cut off her ears. Blood gushes out of her openings as she continuously leaks magic and energy thus getting weaker.

"I will rip out your spine and you will EAT IT!" I yell in her face as we graze the outer reaches of a galaxy for the many stars to zoom past us. I let go of the severed rib and shove my free hand back into her open chest. My hand forces its way through her organs, heavily damaging them as I fracture her spine to almost impale her with my hand. I tightly grip her lower spine and pull it out of the hole I made in her chest. She looks down to see her spine being ripped out through her bloody cleavage only for me to smack her in the face with it. I smack her in the face with her spine once more before I force her mouth open with my telekinesis. Now with her mouth wide open I shove her spine down her open mouth for it to crack and break as it turns to dust inside her. I back away from her to activate my wing thrusters at max power only for me to kick her in the belly so hard that she tries to throw up but finds that her waste bursts out all over her exposed insides. This sends even more blood in my direction as she gets sent flying away from me at faster then light speeds.

"You think I'm a monster?" I pause as I look down with a dark smirk of satisfaction.

"You have not seen what kind of monsters I have faced..." I look up in the direction I detect Raugna's energy signature slowly rising. I fly after once again to find that she has partially regenerated with a petrified look on her face as soon as she gets a small glimpse of me with her one good eye. The Innovation warps in from behind me to keep an eye on the fight as we fall past more rings of galaxies. I lunge at Raugna with only one sword drawn. I clench my limbs together in the fetal position with my left arm spread out with the sword. My wings straighten and activate counteracting jets to make spin faster and faster as I engage in a powerful bladed screwattack. I effortlessly cut her arm clean off yet I latch onto it with my grapple to latch onto Raugna with my other grapple so I can sling shot myself back to her only to slap her in the face with her savored arm. My hit snaps her neck as part of her spine has regenerated.

"Stop hitting yourself! STOP HITTING YOURSELF! STOP HITTING YOURSELF!" I say louder and louder as I being to laugh by the simple fact that this pureblood chose a more vulnerable form on the insides.

"You're more human then I thought! LETS TAKE IT A STEP FURTHER!" I say with an overly disturbed tone. I stop hitting Raugna with her own arm to toss it aside only for Raugna to materialize a blade to my right out of dimensional power she stole to send it flying towards me. The huge blade hits my arm but dissipates quickly upon contact much to Raugna's shock.

"Ever been caught in a closing wormhole?" I ask simply. Raugna looks at me with a confused expression by the fact I asked such a random question.

"No? Well then...this'll be painful..." I say as my tone drifts towards darker intent. I open a portal in front of us to let Raugna fall through, only for me to prematurely close it when she's part way through. This cuts off her lower body from the rest of it while sending half of her particles into oblivion. The portal vanishes for even more blood to gush out what remains of her ruined body. I flip around her bleeding body and send out my grapple again for it to wrap around Raugna's neck and connect to my other gauntlet. I kick Raugna in the back as I fire pin point sized kinetic blasts out of my wings to pelt Raugna with needle sized holes in her body. I then give off a huge shockwave of kinetic energy to send Raugna miles away from me as we now enter a vast emptiness. All around us we can see the countless rings of galaxies as we fall towards a small cluster of lights in the center of the universe.

3rd person

The Innovation

"We've entered the Central Supervoid around the Grand Capital Galaxy!" yells VALeRY as she can only hope that the galaxy is not affected by the battle.

"What's the Central Supervoid?" asks Fluttershy with worry.

"The Central Supervoid as a spherical section of empty space in the center of the universe. All around the Grand Capital Galaxy. If Raugna realizes where she is then she'll try and destroy it. We must prevent Raugna from getting to the galaxy otherwise she might convert herself into energy and merge with the defense system. I've activated the galactic sheilding but at the moment she has so much foreign power inside her that I don't know how long it would last with so many unknown variables, especially with her current mental state...Activating automated system program. Set objective: Fallow Nova at a safe distance." says V just as her avatar vanishes from view. The lights flicker for a moment as if a large source of power disconnects itself from the Innovation's systems. The automated system program activates auxiliary power. The ponies and even the two angels all look at the windshield to see a huge ball of light exactly 100 feet wide. This ball has a large ring orbiting it so fast that it only appears as white blur. The ball quickly drifts away from the Innovation into the fight between the two angry purebloods.

Nova

I hold Raugna's fists tighter as she pushes against me with her magic yet I push back with my immense gravitational forces and magic powered strength. My scans pick up V coming at me from behind so I let go and grapple onto V's turbine to start spinning around at faster then light speeds.

"Shouldn't you be powering the Innovation?" I casually ask.

"Shouldn't you be fixing Nyxium?" snaps V with a playful expression.

"Touché." I say as I get back to the fight. I enter hyperthought to slow down time once again. I let go of V's turbine to send my self flying at Raugna with my fists up to punch her away from me. Most of my kinetic energy is transferred into her to send her flying away with pain in every nerve.

"This is where all of the poor choices you made over the years comes back go bite you in the ass!" I spread all my limbs to summon countless stars all around me to form a huge closed star cluster in orbit around me. Raugna recovers and flies right at us but gets blocked by a rogue star. Upon contact with the celestial object it explodes as she lunges at us. V gets in front of me to let go of her gravitational containment felid. Her glowing white light fades away for her to suddenly vanish as the turbine that orbits her still remains unchanged. V is in reality, a heavily modified black hole given life through a very complex network of enchanted crystals, countless layers of very powerful magical enchants and thin layers of hyper advanced technology on her surface. She sucks in the light from around her to trap it inside her powerful gravitational felid. VALeRY latches onto a star with her gravity to throw it at Raugna. She flies around the star to position herself over V's south pole to fire an anti matter beam into it, only for her attack to be blocked by a fast moving wall of gas that ignites the anti matter willed into position by V's immense gravity. I fly into the cluster of explosions to grab my foe with my grapple and fly around her to tie her up with them. I then cast a large assortment of runes around her to trap her in place.

"You want power hmm? Well... how about THIS!" lightning sparkles around me as I calm myself to let time slow down to a halt. I access the power of my own universe to cannibalize the cores of all the stars around me ultimately killing them. Time resumes and all around me the stars give off a blinding white flash of light. So much bright white light is given off by the colossal amounts of radiation rich supernovas that it would blind anyone with in a million light years. Entire galaxies worth of light explodes all around us yet me and Raugna remain unfazed by it. The blinding light fades away to enrich our presence in an epic display of overlapping colorful nebulas that rapidly expand in all directions. The inner gasses of the stars collide with outer gasses to heat up to trillions of degrees as gold and other heavy elements are made. The nebulas get swiftly sucked into my wings to overcharge me with an abundant supply of power. Raugna does the same yet starts to strain and ultimately fail as she throws up plasma out of her mouth as my poison starts to take effect. The mass gets absorbed faster and faster until I leave us both in the sea of apparent emptiness surrounded by distant galactic rings of creation that orbit a still unobserved galaxy many a few hundred million parsecs behind me. I give off a supernova sized shockwave out of my sides as my wings glow as brightly as the supernovas from before yet only partially so I can still be seen. My body appears to by that of a pitch black shadow. I lunge at Raugna so fast that I shatter the speed of causality behind me leaving a trail of reorganizing cosmic strings in a strange instantaneous self repair sequence. I open a portal in front of me so I can hit Raugna from a different direction with my swords. Another portal opens up for me to fly through it and hit Raugna once again.

VALeRY

Nova collides with Raugna from countless different directions at an ever increasing rate, with each cut shattering the conventional laws of physics even more so then the last. Over and over again that white beam of light pulses around Raugna, hit after hit, cut after cut. The entire display glows brighter and brighter until it eclipses my omnidirectional felid of view. I warp back to my core chamber to regain control of the ship. So many hits are happening at once that each individual particle is being destroyed by Nova's unforgiving impacts. I can only stare at her display of terrifying power as she begins to create high pitch wind sound in a vacuum. The epicenter of this madness before me must be breaking down the fundamental laws of reality even more so then my event horizon. It has been so long sense I've seen her use that move...every time it makes me happy to be her partner, but also...a little...scared.

Nova

After 30 seconds of relentlessly destroying particle after particle of Raugna's shredded body I stop teleporting and pull up to make a 90 degree turn to summon countless dimensional blades. Each blade is far more refined then the last and perfectly sharp, ready to cut an electron in half and the particles that make it up. While in hyperthought I still move at incredible speeds even for my perception of time. I aim for Raugna's crushed remains in a cracked gap in space time to end her miserable life. The blades all converge on one another to form a dimensional ball only for it to violently implode. I make sure to spare one of her particles to keep her barely alive by sucking out all her magic. I suspend the particle in a stasis felid and throw it at the Innovation. V summons a portal in front of the particle to send it right to the pureblood containment center inside the deepest bowels of the brig. I let out a sigh as I slowly let my body return to normal. My particles slow down as my body temperature lowers. My energetic body fades back into solid matter as my wings transition back to their classic black finish as I fall out of my hyper form.

"You...did it..." says Epsilon over the coms with a shocked tone.

"Y-yeah...we can have a party later...I uh...need some time alone..." I say as my acquired hormones start to catch up to me. I fly into the the blue bubble shield that contains the greenhouse, and by extension, the Island of Solitude, my home...my legacy...my...first creation...

Oh and the next chapter is NOT porn.

[34] Epilogue

VALeRY

The ponies and angels stare into the vast ruined nebula caused by the high speeds that have just transpired with in it. I however complete hooking up with the ship's system and do a full system diagnostic of the Innovation.

Nova flies past the windshield down towards the central bubble shield that contains the artificial dwarf planet. "It doesn't take a genius to figure out what she'll be doing for the next 3 hours." I think to myself as the ship swiftly drifts through the nebulae gently slowing down as gas and dust particles collide with the still charging shield. Now that power is flowing back into the shield, it starts to glow so bright that it can be seen in the visible spectrum of light, letting the lower life forms see the hexagonal shape of the individual shield fragments protecting the ship from the left over radiation from over a billion supernovas and Nova's "starburst" attack. "She seems to have added an extra touch to it this time. It gets the job done I guess, she was always one to make sure her enemies never got back up when she's done with them. I just hope this doesn't end up like the Void Wars..." I think to myself once again with worry. Snapping back to reality I decide to socialize with the intercom.

"The Innovation needs to be temporally decommissioned for repairs. I suggest you go to the Island of Solitude so we can discuss future matters in a more appropriate location." I inform them as I materialize a holographic blue line for them to fallow out of the bridge and into the personal cargo bay behind them.

"Please fallow the blue line." I say calmly.

"Will it go crazy like the Adventure Line?" asks Pinkie.

"This isn't a video game Pinkie...wait how do you know about the Stanley Parable?" I say a bit surprised that she's even aware of Steam games despite the fact that their race hasn't developed computers.

"If you know what's good fer ya, don't ask." says Applejack with a smug look on her face.

"True, I am detecting some unknown magics in her spirit. Buuuut I can analyze her later." I say just as the ponies and the angels reluctantly leave the bridge to enter the long intimidating hallway. The yellow pegasus referred to as Fluttershy shivers a bit at the site of sentinels off in the distance. Oh and only a few layers of photons is preventing her falling to her death even though she can fly.

"W-what is this place?" she asks.

"This is the personal ship bay. Here is where Nova keeps her favorite compact ships she's collected over the years. Currently less then half of the bay is occupied with ships as the rest of the wall space are just empty slots. The ship Necra piloted earlier is parked in this room." I say as they notice the Wasp in one of the garages encased in hard light.

"Is she gonna be alright?" asks Twilight with worry.

"She'll be fine." I say calmly.

"Where is she!? Oooooo I bet she's sending that blood straight to the brig!" yells Rainbow Dash with glee.

"No, I already did that. At the moment she's...well...a bit preoccupied at the moment." I say as my tone changes a nervous one at the thought of what she's doing in her room. If I still had cheeks, I'd be blushing.

"Well? Can we see her? We have SO many questions!" asks Twilight with curiosity oozing from her words.

"I'm 546,001 years younger then her, I think I can answer any question you desire...so long as it's not classified." I say knowing full well that I am the only person to ever beat Nova at a game of chess...that was one hell of a game.

"Where is that Mary Sue exactly?" asks Discord, all this talk of her is starting to annoy me, especially comparing Nova to one of those horrible Mary Sue characters.

"She's in her room masterbating because she most likely broke the speed of causality when we reentered normal space. This was ultimately caused when she entered the ball of energy that was most likely present around Raugna while she was stealing the dimensional energies from the Gateway." I say plainly. The ponies walk silently as some look down in blushed faces as others look puzzled. The angels however look at each other for a moment as Epsilon giggles softly.

"What does energy have to do with the neuron stimulation in her...um...genitals?" asks Twilight, breaking the silence only to make it more awkward.

"As a pureblood, she naturally absorbs energy based attacks. Usually her nuron suit controls this but the enchants must have been damaged while she was fighting Epsilon. Let me guess, she showed you that she can regenerate her limbs?" I ask Epsilon who looks up at the ceiling.

"Yeah, she...let me cut off her arm." says Epsilon a bit sorrowful by what she once was, a monster.

"Well that would just about do it. Typical, then again she DOES know how to get the job better then anyone I know." I say nonchalantly. "Anyways if their energy absorption isn't regulated then it can put them at a major disadvantage in battle if they haven't mentally trained for it. As I'm sure you're already imagining, yes. Purebloods do indeed get sexually aroused by energy and magic based attacks as it adds to their power." I continue as I inform them of one of the few weaknesses of the purebloods race.

"Where are you?" asks Rairty. I materialize my hard light avatar by her side with out her noticing. I tap her ear to startle her. She jumps back and squeals for a moment.

"Oh! Don't scare me like that darling." says Rairty as she collects herself. I smirk and back away, as if gravity does not effect my hard light form. Some of the ponies and I giggle at this.

"Oh? I thought it was fun to scare little ponies?...it totally is." I playfully tease her as I suddenly change my accent to sound like a teenager from Beverly Hills on Earth 1 with in the years of 2000 and 2030. She walks to the side away from my as she rolls her eyes in annoyance.

"My core is a few hundred miles under you right now. Located deep inside of the ancient starship called the Island of Solitude. That's where I'm taking you...Speaking of which this is taking too long." I say just as I disable the microscopic friction bumps on the shield and change the room's gravity settings to make them slide across the long hard light floor towards the end of the room. Twilight attempts to slow them down but I cast a magic nullifying spell around her horn. Discord and Pinkie slide past them all as they scream "Weeeeeee!"

"Don't worry ladies, I'll make sure you don't bump into anything. This is a big room after all." I say to comfort them, if has little effect. After a few minutes of them attempting to balance on their hooves as they slide down towards the end of the room I reactivate the microscopic friction bumps on the hard light floor as I reset the gravity back to normal. They all slow to a halt as they fall down a bit worn out.

"Don't...do that..." says Rarity as she catches her breath.

"I think it was fun." says Necra with a smile, Serena looks at her for a moment. To any, they would see little emotion, but as the only functioning MEAI still alive, I can easily tell she is developing complex emotions. They snap out of their stupor when they notice the large wall before them that meets up with the hard light floor. What lies before them is a large half circle door that is etched with circuitry on the wall that surrounds it. Some of those lines glow red as others glow orange, but a large portion of these glowing lines illuminate them with a light blue hue. All of them meet up with the door's edge as they reach out in all directions towards the walls perpendicular to it. I open the door as is slides down into the floor to show them the Central Mainframe of the Innovation. The hard light floor thins out into a walkway that curves into a circular platform in the center of the large sphere shaped room. The walls are covered in dim lights that sparkle with dim lights. Holograms of technical information and schematics orbit the center of the dimly lit room. The edges of the hard light floor are lined with Dileoum plated shield limiters that stop the shield from expanding infinitely as well as help keep them stable. Another ring is in betted inside the circular platform that has a large amount of holographic light under it that reaches down into a large hole in the bottom of the room. This light glows blue in most places in the form of hazy blurs, ones inside of zeros, and small curved rectangles that circle the beam of light that connects the platform to the depths of the ship. The orange lights are identical but cracked in a few places, showing apparent damage to the mainframe of the ship. The red lights complement this by appearing more damaged and cracked. A dense fog covers the lower half of the room caused by the vast spaces this room possess and has not been fixed purely for the sake of ambience.

"This is Central Mainframe. It's also useful to the comm tower above you." I say as the objective line points them to the center of the room only to suddenly drop down into the beam of information. The ponies walk into the center of the room and look at the floor, some take in more detail while others are confused to where to go.

"Have a nice flight, I will not supply parachutes." I say, but be before the ponies could react I deactivate the shielding, making them all fall out of the room into a tunnel. The angels glide down in a controlled fall along with Necra and Dash. Twilight rights herself and glides down with them as she uses her levitation magic to straighten the bodies of her non winged friends.

"I can't believe we fell for that again!" yells Pinkie as she flips past Discord who is reading a media magazine.

"I wasn't surprised one bit." says Discord, still keeping his eyes on his magazine.

"Prepare to be surprised then." I say as the tunnel ends right as I finish those words. They are still encased in a data stream yet through the hazy light they can see the vast open space newly revealed to them. They fall towards a huge floating island hovering above a lush eden like planet toped with large forests and rivers flowing down towering mountains. The island however is the most notable thing from their point of view. This island has an oval shaped surface with three mountains in the center of it. One mountain is in the in the exact center and is vaguely cone shaped. The data stream flows into it and is directly under them. On one side of this mountain is another slightly smaller one that hugs it so closely that the land masses are merged half way down. This one has a solid beam of hard light shooting out of it only for it to end abruptly into a spire like sphere with a cross shaped device on top of it and surrounded by a hard light observation platform at its apparent equator. The mountain on the other side of the center one is the smallest of the 3 and takes the form of a flat topped masa with a large turret on it. Yet this turret is far different then the others they have seen. Surrounding the mountains is a heavenly landscape of greenery littered with old ruins. Ancient stone paths encircle the center mountain to cut through the light forests. More stone paths connect them to the mountains. I aim the ponies fall out of the data stream and guide them towards the spire. The momentum of the fall dissipates as the ponies slow to a halt just above the hard light balcony of the spire.

"I-I TOLD you NOT to do that again! You messed up my hair!" yells Rarity as she gets up to attempt to straighten herself with her magic. The spire has a solid gray wall next to them yet a window made of hard light circles around it to arch up to the peak of the dome like structure. This window is clear enough to let them see that the half way up to the tip is a large gyroscopic cockpit like on the Innovation. This one however has a single solid ring of Dileoum around it. The ring has struts coming out of it, flawlessly equidistant to one another to stretch down to the yet to be seen floor inside the building. At the tip of the spire is a large bubble shield generator, yet this one gives off a very strange vibe to them. Under the shield generator is a series of arms tipped with projectors that hang above the cockpit. The shield generator has a strut that lines up with the arch of the hard light shield wall that transfers power into it. The wind blows gently upon my guests as one by one they turn around to see the sight before them. The hard light floor under them is partially transparent, making Fluttershy a bit woozy at first but she soon forgets it when she sees the distant storm clouds overlooking the mountains. The only sounds that can be heard is the wind and the distant rumblings of a raging storm laying waste to a mountainous snowy terrain. The sky arches over them all as the bubble shield that encases the entire planet makes the outside only be partially visible with a foggy blue haze that is actually a thin but ultra hard bubble shield. I materialize my avatar next to Necra and Serena as I look out over the horizon. To our left stands Nova herself, who just stepped out of a time spell to join us. She walks over to the edge of the balcony, the tips of her feet are just over the edge of the Dileoum ring around the railless balcony. Her hands are placed behind her back with all 10 of her regal cybernetic wings flared and ready to fly, yet remain at rest and unmoving. A sudden gust of wind blows against us all yet Nova remains unfazed, looking deep into the scenery before her in thought. She sighs and looks down for a moment. With a smirk she looks back up for a briefly, then turns to our guests.

"So...what do you think?"

Culture

Multinet:
A complex network of computers that spans the entire Harmonic Empire Multiverse. The multinet is spread over nearly every galaxy in Homebase through a interconnecting complex network of space stations that are in every galaxy. This network even connects to other universes through the MK IV jumpgates but only one space station connects the multinet to that universe. The Beacon Stations are specifically designed to give the pureblood and other races access to permitted information if the correct digital magic frequency is used. These Beacon Stations are dropped into a new universe for the Pureblood to access to let them know that they are not alone and give them advice on how to start their universe right or perform unethical experiments on a few galaxies like most bloods do at some point. The influence of the beacon station can be amplified by near by stations to spread out the signal to give computers better reception to search engines that run the multinet.
"It's like the internet, but bigger than you could possibly imagine!"

Space Wargames:
An event that happens once every billion years celebrated exclusively by purebloods who accel at war in deep space. In this pureblood only holiday, purebloods from all over the Empire take up their best ships and best fleets to fight one another in battle for glory to see who has the better weapons, armor and skill. So many billions of years has past sense the first Space Wargames that the Empire dose not keep track any more after the 999,999,999,999,999,999,999th annual Space Wargames. The rules are simple, destroy all the ships on the opposing team until only the pureblood remains or one of them gives up.

Locations

Eden Prime:
LOCKED

Grand Capital Galaxy:
The capital galaxy in the center of Homebase Universe in the center of the Harmonic Empire. With a radius of exactly 1,000,000 light years and a thickness of 1,000 it's incredibly large size is only complemented by it's majestic appearance. No further information will be revealed.

Skyburst Galaxy:
An artificial galaxy that acts as a play ground for atmospheric testing and a large array of artistic appeal to any who can see it and or enter it. This galaxy is only 100,000 light years across but at first glance it would appear to be a blue disk with white clouds in a spiral pattern surrounding the galactic core. The galactic core of this galaxy is a gravitational stabilizer that keeps a nebula composed of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor at a density identical of sea level on Earth 1. At the equator of this galaxy is a disc of gravitons that attract water to it in order to form a vast circular ocean on both sides of the galaxy to remain stable. The ocean is 1000 miles deep on both sides, with an icy bottom due to massive pressures. Through out the galaxy is exactly 100 billion spherical air filters that also act as powerful forms of radiation, in the center of each sphere is a powerful anti graviton core to prevent the air around it from clump to it's surface. The spheres have so little gravity that not even a grain of dust can stick to its surface. This galaxy is so life friendly that anyone can step out of the airlock with out a suit and not die, but only for a few hours as to not be effected by the radiation.

Reactors

Dark Energy Core:
A compact source of energy that has continuously proven to be highly efficient at powering small devices that require a large amount of power to function. The dark energy core is a unique pocket universe with only 2 of the 6 forces of the universe inside it. This modified pocket universe impossible to enter through normal means as it can only store a small amount of objects inside a specialized container. The pocket universe is so oversaturated with dark energy because it continuously generates it just by simply existing in a compact bubble. Unlike a normal universe, traditional atoms cannot exist with a dark energy core's pocket universe as they would simply fall apart due to the lack of other forces in that universe. The power cells relative to an average human are the size of a pin point, the cells suck in energy from the pocket universe to be stored for safe keeping. A normal pocket universe is contained safely inside a dimensional bubble, but a dark energy core dose not have one to keep it from interacting with the cosmic strings that make up the universe outside it. To fix this, the cosmic strings that surround the dark energy core are arranged to close off the smaller strings from expanding countless times their size with a powerful enchantment that is kept active by the core itself. The dark energy continuously expanse outwards, but is stopped by the only other force in the dark energy core's pocket universe. In the center of a dark energy core is a supermassive ball of pure gravitons that is uses its gravitational force to pull the universe around it towards it. If this were to ever fail then the pocket universe would expand outwards into the universe that contained the dark energy core faster then the speed of light. Due to the cosmic string collisions this would cause a catastrophic destabilization in the fabric of reality that would ripple across multiple dimensions. This event is significantly less deadly compared to a critical failure in a normal pocket universe destabilization as when a dark energy core has a meltdown, only a small part of the universe is destroyed. This information is intentionally blocked from any AI that uses this power source with multiple logic barriers that are completely undetectable. The only reason why these cores are used in angel sentinels is because of one simple fact. It is very hard to destabilize a dark energy core.

Dark Gravitational Core:
A MK II version of a dark energy core. The fundamental design is almost identical except for one simple difference. Orbiting the graviton heart of the core itself is a turbine that orbits it to power a stationary ring shaped structure stitched into the cosmic strings that make up the pocket universe. This specially designed turbine combines the power of infinite gravitational force to the omnidirectional explosive power that is dark energy to power starships and installations that require the power of a trillion suns or more.

Politics

The Eternal Circle:
A group of 12 eternal purebloods and Nova being the Elderblood. The Circle does not reveal their true identities as circle members to the public for security reasons as caused by the risks of being in such a high position. The public however already knows the Circle exists only because they accept Nova as their leader and as the only Circle member to be made known to them. The Circle is in charge of the Harmonic Empire's political system made apparent by a voting system done by the 12 purebloods to be ultimately decided by Nova. In the event of a tie Nova must be the deciding vote. She has upheld this system even before she regenerated for the last time. Every once and a while a circle member dies but every time this happens a new eternal pureblood is ripped into existence in a new universe somewhere in the Empire. This blood cannot enter the circle until they have reached level 20 as almost all eternal purebloods have passed even that medium difficulty level. If one Circle member is unable to vote and the members strike a tie then Nova must break the tie herself by deciding which choice to do with careful consideration. The Circle is responsible for many other things but the secrecy behind their decisions are shrouded in a web of controversy put there by the Circle members themselves to make the public not believe the conspiracy theorists when they got too close to figuring out some classified data.

======
Thrusters

Gravity Jet:
A type of thruster that redirects gravity waves in a single direction thus creating thrust. This thruster has a vary fast acceleration rate but needs to be limited because of the amount of G forces the machine that the thruster is attached to may endure, it can be condensed into an ultra thin disc in armor if it has the proper power source.

Industrial Gravity Jet:
Some people refer to this device as the IG Jets as a slang term. The industrial gravity jet is used for supporting massive structures in place of pillars as they tend to last for millions of years with out maintenance. In the Empire they are built to last forever and used on supporting the ceiling of layered shield worlds.

======
Weapons

Neutrino Cannon:
A large weapon that sucks neutrinos out of the space around it and super charges them to be fired at a target. On the type Alpha this weapon may be powerful but it has a 10 second charge time, when fully charged it has the destructive power to effectively destroy a mountain and or penetrate the thickest amour. It can also be used to fire rapidly but at the expense of extra destructive power. The bigger this weapon is the longer charge time it has but the more powerful the blast is at full charge. Anything that gets near the neutrino vacuum used to charge this weapon may get crushed. If a life form stands too close to a charging neutrino cannon they may get sucked to the vacuum vents and slowly suck in their skin off atom by atom at a vary fast rate in a matter seconds.
"Neutrinos are EVERYWHERE! and are made from nuclear decay...why not weaponize it!?"

Homing Lasers:
An energy weapon that fires lasers that home in on an energy source, they are used to seek out a fast moving targets. This weapon's rate of fire as it fires 100 beams per second because of overheating and a fast charge time. The drawback of homing lasers are that they get less accurate over longer distances. Typically they are modified to have a small explosive effect upon impact but this can be changed with different enchants and or weapon components.

Compact Rotating Gatling Gun:
The acronym for this weapon is CRGG. Typically this weapon can be seen on fighter class starships and battleships. It is designed with a built in quantum converter to be used to give the weapon a more effective variety in killing targets at a distance. This weapon has no need to reload and has no charging time so it can continuously fire until the power source runs out. On Serena this weapon is similar to a compact machine gun but the barrels being shortened as well as the ammunition being interchangeable.

Double P. Cannon:
Weapon that can be found on high end civilian starships with an expensive taste of hot quick death for their enemies. The Double P. Cannon shoots a beam of photons surrounded by plasma at the target, the photons for penetrating the target at the impact point and the plasma for heating up the surrounding haul and frying circuitry for maximum damage. This weapon was originally called the "Double Penetration Cannon" but customizers kept on referring it to what it is called today, mostly because it uses photons and plasma to damage its target.

Reactor Missiles:
Also known as "Bubble Bombs". These missiles utilize a tracking system that will fallow it's target until it impacts it. Upon impact the missile digs itself half way into it to blast off it's cover to reveal its reactor. Within 4 seconds the missile generates a bubble shield around itself and the target. After this the shield opens up a small gap in the top of the shield then ignites. This effectively destroys everything inside the bubble shield while the shockwave is forced out the top of it through the opening in the sheild. About 10 seconds after the reactor goes critical the shield vanishes due to a delayed magic enchantment.
MK 1 nuclear reactor [additional radiation damage]
MK 2 arc reactor [additional electrical damage]
MK 3 nuclear fusion reactor [additional heat, radiation, and electrical damage]
MK 4 gravity reactor [additional gravitational, kinetic, heat, and magnetic damage]
MK 5 magic reactor [elemental]
And the prototype MK 6 has a dark energy core, though it is still in the early stages. When completed they could effectively destroy an entire galaxy while not damaging the space around it. Because of this, the MK 6 is not practical as a precision weapon of mass destruction with contained damage.

Light Hybrid Rifle:
A gun that was never mass produced as the Harmonic Empire has no infantry forces aside from the angel sentinels who have weapons built in. The light hybrid rifle never saw warfare because of this fact but it still proves to be useful to many bounty hunters and company hired armies and guards. This weapon fires a single bolt of plasma and laser energy at the same time in sync. Their is not many different types of hybrid rifles but the light version is primarily used for mid range but dose not fair well on shielded targets.

======
Medical

Regeneration pod: "regen pod"
These are commonly found in the medical bays of various starships and installations. Regen pods are used to regenerate the biological anatomy of a life form through the species DNA accessible through a computer system. The pod is filled with a yellow liquid that is in fact liquid healing magic with nano bots programed to repair damaged tissue. The regen pod can only heal a life form if they have been documented or scanned so their biological makeup can be repaired.

Hyper Stasis:
A state of being when a life form or AI is put into a time stasis pod. Time is slowed to a halt within the pod indefinitely unless the pod is reactivated by the outside or by a set timer. If the pod is destroyed while the person is inside the pod they will be paused in time for all eternity so a large collection of safety protocols have been set in place to prevent this. However the system can be rigged for this to happen anyways, but it may be an incredibly complex and dangerous procedure for the hacker.

======
Faster then light travel

Hyper Drive:
An engine component that allows a starship to go faster then light. Most up to date hyper drives can go a max of 100,000,000 times faster than light, this is possible by pushing the ship into a different dimension that has been called "hyperspace" to increase the engines power and effectiveness. They are used to go to places with in a local galactic neighborhood.

Warp Drive:
A devise that shoots out a warp beam, when the beam gets far enough away from the device a wormhole opens to the calculated destination for the starship to enter. This machine is typically used for instantaneous travel to different galaxies across great distances.

Ultradrive:
A device that was first built and perfected on the Pure Fire of Innovation. Similar to a warp drive it fires a wormhole in front of the ship to suck it through to a different point in space. The ultradrive however can send the ship itself into a different universe or dimension. When a powerful enough time machine is plugged into the system then the ultradrive can double as a conduit through time as well. With the ultradrive, the Innovation can go to any universe with out the need for a MKIV Jumpgate. This device is more then just an engine component as it is located inside and around the main center engine of the Innovation. A large dimensional turbine is used to rotate around the gravitational force generated by the the countless gravity jets on the engine. When the rotational speed of the turbine approaches light speed, it supplies a powerful space time distortion so intense that if anything gets caught inside this controlled dimensional storm then they would be atomically shredded, with their remains being sent into non existence itself as it is aged into oblivion. This controlled space time distortion is diverted by the gravity jets with the contained force of a billion supermassive black holes to be absorbed into the receivers at the base of the main center engine. Next the dimensional energy is sent through a specifically designed power conduit to a modified warp beam emitter from a warp drive in the front of the ship. This energy interacts with a data felid located inside the dwarf planet of the Innovation to acquire a destination. It is possible to overload this system so the beam dose not interact with the data stream to give a destination. This causes a highly unstable wormhole to be created that will suck in the matter around it like a black hole, but made of dimensional energy, not crushed subatomic particles. This ability has proven to be a powerful weapon in battle against unique enemy starships that have stolen shield generators from Nova's fleet. The ultradrive can only be used 20 times until it overheats, when this happens the excess heat energy is transferred to the Innovation's side main engines to give it a massive boast in power but difficult to control. Unlike a warp drive, the ultradrive has access to an oversized supercharged gravitational dark energy core that is much more powerful then the ones inside of angel sentinels. This gives it the ability to expand the size of the portal to fit an entire galaxy through if and only if enough dimensional energy is supplied into the portal at the expense of faster overheating.

Hyperspace:
A dimension that is related to every 3D universe where the their is no cosmic speed limit. When a ship enters hyperspace the distance between point A and point B is still the same in normal space. Hyperspace has a colorful tubular appearance as the ship flies through the tube, if a ship touches the tube wall than it will cause large amounts of damage to the shielding and possibly haul. This is ultimately caused by a seemingly infinite amount of dimensional friction. This "dimensional friction" is still not entirely understood even today but what little is known about it is this: At least 5 different dimensions are rubbing up against the walls that (for some unknown reason) results in the acceleration tunnel that causes ships to travel at impossible speeds with no fundamental speed limit to causality. Some purebloods can harness the power of hyperspace to enter higher forms but few have learned how to control it and has been known to incredibly dangerous.

======

Projectors

Mass Projector:
A devise that projects deployable mass from the lease to be used to perform complex tasks like the steering wheel of a starship. Energy gets emitted from the projector then solidifies into the desired form by the computer. This has replaced claytronics in a large number of ways, but power is still an issue in some situations for lower tear purebloods.

Energy Emitter:
A device that can directly change the shape of energy in a given space. Can be used as an energy whip/grapple, a deployable shield, a beam weapon of different energy types, any melee weapon, and more. This is typically seen inside of angel sentinels or armored gauntlets.

======

Starship Components

G Force Dampener:
A thin layer of magic infused gravitational beam emitters that fire at one another to act as a buffer for impacts. This system can also be used on almost all starships to counter the effects of rapid acceleration and deceleration of a starship by sustaining and absorbing the natural inertia of a ship as it moves through space or if it was under attack from another ship if and only if enough magic is supplied to the dampeners to dampen the effect of G forces on the interior of the ship. This device is also used on other vehicles and sentinels that may be subject to such forces.

Physics Engine Core:
When traveling to a different universe a ship may be subject to that universe's laws and could lose functionality or be destroyed. The physics engine core is a powerful stabilizer that keeps the ship in a localized bubble of controlled laws to keep the ship running normally with out the worry of entering a universe where all gravity is multiplied by 10,000 or the speed light is 2 miles an hour. If one were to exit the ship's overshield they would also exit the physics engine core's influence and thus be subject to the foreign universe's laws.
"No, seriously, why has NO ONE ever thought of this? Not only dose it supply the sci fi genre with new possible stories but it's also realistic! Only to a crazy advanced civilization like the Empire."

Phase Genorator:
A specially designed cloaking device that's very existence is highly classified with in the Empire and even among the Eternal Circle. The phase generator slips the ship into a fully transparent state allowing anything to pass through it. When activated the Innovation has the unique ability to fly through objects as if they weren't there. This device is so effective that the Innovation can even fly though a black hole with out coming in contact with the surface. It is completely impossible to detect where the ship is with the phase generator active due to the fact the space where the innovation takes up is aged backward to a point where the ship wasn't there before, forcing the ship itself to be slipped into a different dimension with the slight distortion of time as an anchor when the phase generator is activated. This small distortion in time flawlessly blends in into the natural cosmic background radiation of almost all universes, making the phase generator the perfect cloaking device for infiltration and surprise attacks.

The Wand:
A large lab grown quartz crystal with various modifications inside it to act as an oversized magical wand to be used by the central intelligence of the starship it's attached to. This device requires a lot of magic and power to use, which is why it's only a prototype. Luckily the only ship that will be equipped with it has plenty of power to spare. When used the wand can preform spells on a galactic scale or be used to aid in battle similar to how a normal wand is used. On the Innovation, the wand is located inside the bow of the ship but is not directly exposed to space.

======
Miscellaneous

Dileoum:
The most widely used building material in the Empire as it is completely indestructible and is massless even though it acts like it has mass. Dileoum is composed of cosmic strings that were rearranged to act as a solid form and not the fabric of the universe. The substance is extracted from the fabric of space time and woven into a material of linked strings. When a sheet of Dileoum is thin enough then it will act like a fabric, such as being flexible and perfectly durable. If the sheet of Dileoum is thick enough then it will act like an unbendable metal, being unable to bend and change shape but be completely impervious to damage. Dileoum is known for its ability to completely reject vibrations and its pitch black color as well as its use in all structures in the Empire. Dileoum is used to build anything that is designed to last forever such as installations and military equipment for the armor plating of starships and sentinels. When Dileoum is used on something such as a starship then it must be equipped with G force dampeners to prevent damage to the machinery within the ship and other devices that are subject to strong G forces.

Quantum Converter:
A device that is typically seen as a compact component inside the most up to date weapons technology. This machine allows direct manipulation over subatomic particles to change the type of elements that make up a space when the atoms are supplied by an energy source with exact precision. In weapons, this device is used to create different types of projectiles that are fired from the same weapon, such as energy, plasma, explosive, radioactive, armor piercing, incendiary, and others. A computer is required to store highly detailed schematics of the object in order to be used accurately. Applying a quantum converter to a weapon will dramatically increase range and accuracy. With a more advanced computer you can create a hybrid of different projectile types.
"Think of it as a 3D printer, but on an atomic level, and much faster."

Aperture Labs:
A large empty facility supported by a cubular frame network with mounted rails. These rails are usually equipped with arms that have panels on the end of them, the panels are arranged into rooms that are used for testing and research facilities, additional panels can be summoned through wormholes. The Aperture Labs can be found under the surface of installations, inside various starships and of course under a certain salt mine, that one however isn't owned by the Empire. Aperture Science originally came up with the idea of the Aperture Labs from Earth 123. These facilities are one of the most versatile and effective scientific laboratory designs in the Empire but requires a vast amount of resources and time to create.

Teleportation Grid:
A large pylon shaped devise that requires a very large amount of power. A teleportation grid is used to teleport objects and life forms to one place to another with in a certain radius of the device. If the grid has insufficient power then the radius where it can teleport mass shrinks. Earlier versions of this device could not teleport life forms with out killing them so it was only used to teleport ships and cargo from point A to point B instantaneously. The teleportation grid is now used exclusively on installations only as it would bring various transportation companies out of business in a matter of months.

Pocket Universe:
A very versatile unit of storage that can be used to store a massive amount of machinery inside a small space. A pocket universe is contained in a dimensional bubble covered with a ring system suspended in a powerful 0 G field powered by the generator inside the pocket universe itself. Vary small pocket universes can be found inside a few prototype sentinels and a particularly advanced starship that Nova lives in.

Hyperthought:
A state of mind that pureblood can enter at almost any time. In this state a pureblood has complete control over their own perception of time, giving them the ability to make seemingly impossibly fast decisions while flying many times faster then light or having to dodge something with almost no reaction time. Higher level purebloods can do this more effectively as their minds are faster and more precise then lower level purebloods.

======
Dimensional Structures

Ultraverse Theory:
This theory states that there is a multiverse on every dimensional plane of existence. Such as a multiverse for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th dimension and so on as their could theoretically be an infinite amount of dimensions and as such an infinite amount of multiverses with in those dimensions. With each dimensional multiverse interacting with one another to maintain stability. Such as a universe the 3rd dimension interacting with the 4th dimension to have a past present and future.
"This might actually be a a thing by the way, and if it is than it would explain a LOT. But also raise many questions."

Deep Void:
The area outside the ultraverse in witch nothing exists. If Ultraverse Theory is in fact correct then an infinite theoretical distance away from the exact center of it would be the edge of the ultraverse that expanse at an incomprehensibly fast rate but has a fundamental end. Beyond that is the Deep Void. If anything enters this void that is not contained with in a dimensional barrier of physics engine core's shield, then it will disintegrate due to the lack of cosmic strings. As described by the few purebloods to ever see it. "A never ending sea of nonexistence."

Self replicating universe:
A universe in which it infinitely creates different versions of itself as time moves forward, creating an infinite chain of different time lines. Time travel can drastically effect this process if the laws of time in that universe allow it. These universes instantly kill a pureblood because a pureblood's place in existence is far different then those who exist in a self replicating universe. This is ultimately caused by the simple fact that quantum physics function very differently in a pureblood's universe. As in a self replicating universe things are more random and not as precise then in a pureblood's universe. The lack of precision on the quantum level would cause a pureblood to be ripped to shreds across all dimensions as apparent to the infinite replication and possibilities that exist within the ultraverse.

The Gateway Universe:
A relatively small universe but forever existing, that has a radius of 50,000 light years. The only objects in this universe are a single fusion recycling star, a few rocky planets and a specially designed jumpgate called the "Gateway" built to transport ships to the natural 3D multiverse. On the very edge of the natural 3D multiverse is a small universe that has another Gateway in order to connect the Harmonic Empire Multiverse to the natural 3D multiverse. This location is considered to be a classified location as the Gateway is the only way to get to Ultraverse from the Empire. The only near by universe to the Gateway Universe are a few artificial universes built to simulate a universe's natural expansion through time normally with out the intervention of dark energy control. After the universes dies the clock resets.

Homebase:
The universe in the center of the Harmonic Empire multiverse. This universe belongs to Nova and serves as "her other half" as she calls it like many other purebloods do. This universe contains the most advanced technology in the Empire because it is strictly illegal to share technological advancements to other purebloods. It is also referred to as the capital as this is where many political affairs take place as well as many other cultural events that purebloods and lower life forms all over the Empire flock to. In order to enter this hyper advanced universe, one must first go the a security checkpoint at one of the many MKIV jumpgates located in each galaxy. One of the most notable things about this universe is that every galaxy orbits the Grand Master Galaxy in the center of the universe. Not many sentient life forms are allowed to enter it as it is completely untouched by all purebloods except Nova herself. It is known to be one of the most beautiful galaxies in the Harmonic Empire, filled with astronomical masterpieces as well as technological wonders. This is Nova's central base of operation, specifically the star system in the center of this critically important galaxy. Homebase Universe is also known to be the largest universe in the Empire, being exactly one-hundred-unnonagintillion gigaparsecs in radius with all 50 vigintillion galaxies relatively near the center but still relatively far apart. The large amount of empty space that surrounds the cluster of galaxies is used for testing just about anything.

======
Space Stations

Installation:
In the Harmonic Empire the term installation can be referred to a massive planet or solar system sized artificial structure such as a dyson sphere or a ring. Installations in the Harmonic Empire are used to perform critically important tasks that require a lot of power and are considered to be the largest machines with each built for different purposes such as a weapon, civilian use, artistic design and scientific advancements like a planet sized hadron collider. Most installations are used as colonies but some are used for more unique purposes.

Layered Shield Worlds:
A hollow sphere with a habitable surface on both outside and inside the sphere, inside the sphere a distance away is another identical sphere but smaller so it can fit inside and held in place by industrial gravity jets an gravity pillars. These installations are used for a large variety of purposes.

The Gateway:
A very large jumpgate designed to connect the Harmonic Empire to the Ultraverse. This is the only possible way for any information of any kind to get to the Empire so as a precaution the Gateway's location is highly classified to even the Eternal Circle. Unlike normal jumpgates the Gateway can only be used as a two way teleporter. This means that if a ship were to enter it then it would end up in the center the other Gateway's ring. The two Gateways are connected by an undetectable thin tube of normal space that increases in length through the 5th dimension. This dimensional tube is only a single planck length wide and is composed of exactly 1,000 cosmic strings that increase length because of the 5th dimensional influence caused by the two Gateways. To the passer by, this small string of existence could easily pass through them with out even setting off a scanner. The distance between the Empire and the Ultraverse eventually got so large that the Gateway could not function properly. This caused Nova to almost redesign the entire system. Now a single Gateway is powered by 8 specially designed energy cells that actually self replicate universes in a contained space. These universes burst into existence around the Gateways for almost all their power to be sucked into the Gateway in order to remain connected to one another. These universes are then aged into oblivion by the 4th dimension for their cosmic strings to be ripped to pieces by the Gateway's harvesters and permanently absorbed into the string of existence that connects the two Gateways. The string was ultimately made so the portal between the Empire and the rest of existence dose not need to be open at all times. The string also makes the wormhole incredibly sable and causes time to be distorted to such a degree that you can go through the other side of the portal and and up on the other side with in a few seconds. This still leaves one problem though, if one of the Gateways were to lose power then the string would subject the entire Empire to incalculable amount of Gs and would most likely kill anyone that isn't a pureblood while destroying everything else and heavily damaging every universe in the Empire. The Omega Gateway would then be ripped from its resting place and be smashed against the dimensional wall of the universe as the excess energy from the energy cells ignite all at once and destroy every universe even remotely near by while destabilizing everything around it. The last time the distance was measured it could not be given a number but a comparison.
"Imagine the Empire being the size of the nucleus of a helium atom, and the ultraverse being the size of the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall from Oceanus's universe. Next? Put the helium atom in orbit around the Grand Master Galaxy in my universe, and the wall 3/4ths to the edge of MY universe. Then throw that out the window and multiply the distance by a octogintillion. And that's just an estimation. At this point not even V can calculate the exact distance we're so far away." - Nova

Computers

3 Dimensional interface Supercomputer (3DISP or simply DISP):
A revolutionary advancement in interface controls by being controlled by motion and thoughts of the user. This makes the few people who can afford them have vast success with creative projects as if they open a art program they can simply imagine the image they want to create with detail and precision unheard of before as well as having more in depth personalization, better over all life form to machine interface, and faster reaction times in games. The motion controls are used to operate the interface itself to manage personalization, settings, network, program selection, coding, and other actions. In the Empire these computers are almost exclusive to purebloods who accel at technological understanding. The citizens of the Empire do not usually have access to this marvel as they typically require a large amount of renovation to be used and are one of the most expensive things on the market. This is why computer companies with in the Empire sell less powerful ones called 3DIC with no thought controlled interface, and only stick to motion and eye controls as well as significantly reduced processors as to cut down on cost, and computing power. Even with the reduced upgrades they are still ungodly expensive, though citizens prefer more compact computers that are either wearable, implantable, or can be put on a desk. These computers take the form of a circular platform with hard light, mass projectors all controlled by the sensors built into the ceiling of the circular room used to house the device. The DISP has many customization options as well, it is possible to interchange, replace or remove the different types of projectors and sensors.

Control Platfrom:
A circular flat surface that when stepped on by a 3DISP's user, will automatically scan the life form or AI's spiritual make up, DNA, RNA, and government profile to log in. When the user is logged in they have access to the 3DISP systems.

MEAI:
The acronym of Magically Enhanced Artificial Intelligence. MEAIs are an artificial intelligence system who is given self awareness through magic. The complex composition of the MEAI gives it the ability to use magic and think on higher levels then any normal AI but at the cost of self transference, meaning that an MEAI cannot transfer itself to another body but can have great control over technology if it has protocols for it. MEAIs are not common in the Empire as they are not needed to perform tasks and are too large to be put into robots, at least thats what the Empire says but their are whispers of less powerful MEAIs who have a smaller core then the others. MEAIs develop emotions over time as their intelligence becomes more complex while they learn. The details on MEAI schematics are not available to public servers as it is highly classified and shrouded in mystery. Their is only a total of 2 MEAIs in the Empire, with one of them have a critical malfunction and almost destroyed the time machine it was in charge of. And the other being in charge of the installations and technology in Homebase Universe but is stationed in an advanced starship that Nova herself built when she was under a million years old.

Numbers

Megacycle:
A unit of time equal to that of googolplex earth years to the googolplexth power. This unit of time not used to measure how old many things are because almost nothing lasts that long.

Cycle:
A single cycle is equivalent to googolplex earth years to be the average life time of a common pureblood maximum life expectancy if the pureblood lives long enough to die of old age.

Centillion:
A cardinal number represented in the U.S. by 1 followed by 303 zeros, and in Great Britain by 1 followed by 600 zeros. adjective. 2. amounting to one centillion in number. Origin of centillion Expand.
"This one is not actually made by me, its a real number...a really big number! Relatively speaking."

Power Level: (Pureblood)
When a pureblood has a power level of 1 then the she/it has the power of an average sized big bang upon conception. All pureblood species have different average power levels as not many pureblood subspecies exist aside from the few that do exist.

Purity Level:
The amount of spiritual energy a pureblood possess. The more purity a pureblood has the more powerful they become. When a Pureblood endures a great revelation combined with an intense moment in their life they will regenerate and thus obtain more purity. When this happens every organ in their body is forcefully ripped out of them as new, more efficient ones form in their place. A pureblood that has regenerated before will tell you it is the single most painful thing they have ever felt, only to be more painful the next time they regenerate. When a pureblood regenerates into a higher level their power level will also increase by 1. Though few ever make it past level 60, and Nova has reached the max level of 100, thus becoming the mythical Elderblood.
"The Elderblood will be revealed to you all one day."

Starships

The Pure Fire of Innovation:
This starship was built by Nova when she was 76 octillion years old at the purity level of 8. It took a few billion years to finally complete the original design due to having to fix a time paradox in several universes. Now, 153 megacycles later the Innovation has been rebuilt multiple times with the countless technological advancements that have taken place with in that large time frame. This ship is outfitted with a large array of machinery to make it go to any location across any dimension and any universe with the most amount of stability possible, the original purpose for this starship is exploration and observation. Over the years Nova has transformed this exploration vessel into the single most dangerously unfair starship in the history of the Empire. So much that she herself banned it from the Space Wargames that take place every billion years. Having flawless stealth abilities to impenetrable shields and an indestructible haul. The entire ship is composed of Dileoum to maintain stability from powerful attacks as well as lasting forever. The sheilding is in reality over million shields combined into one powerful overshield that encases the ship into multiple layers of protection that even absorb energy and magic attacks similar to a pureblood, and thats only one of the 5 million shields. The outer most shield of the Innovation is a bubble shield that is generated by the physics engine core to make the ship remain unaffected by different laws of physics in different universes. If any solid projectile gets through any of the shields then it will simply bounce off the haul. One of the more unique things about this starship is the center has a dwarf planet inside it. This planet is actually the shell for the central power core of the ship, an oversized dark gravitational core that is many times more powerful then a normal compact core. Through out the ship are a few backup cores that act as a backup generator if the central core is to fail. On the surface of this dwarf planet is a lush landscape inhabited by rare species found through out Homebase Universe, with none of them being sentient. Another starship can be found above the north pole of this planet interacting with the data stream. This starship is the famous Island of Solitude. The newest addition to the ship's vast arsenal is the "wand" an experimental oversized magic wand controlled by a central intelligence. Because of VALeRY's sentience, and her access to the data stream from Solitude she can control the ship's functions, and by extension, the wand.

The Island of Solitude:
The Island of Solitude was Nova's first creation because she needed a location to conduct experiments. In that time her universe was much smaller then it is today and was filled with supermassive black holes colliding with other black holes made of antimatter. Unfortunately this starship required a very large amount of power and Nova couldn't keep recharging the batteries with her own unstable power. To fix this she then took a large cluster of gas clouds to condense them into a black hole 90 feet in radius. After a large amount of modifying and enchanting she managed to apply layers of plating made form various components and a large amount of different type of crystals. This was done so the black hole's gravitational felid would spin an orbital ring with struts pointed inward so the gravity would effect it more and thus give the turbine more momentum while spinning. The gravitational felid itself was limited and controlled but when she turned on the Ultra Core, it gained sentience. This core was the first MEAI, VALeRY. Sense then Solitude has been the epicenter of scientific innovation across all fields of science. Before the Pure Fire of Innovation was invented Nova drove the Island all over the universe liberating planet after planet from corrupted governments. Some civilizations joined her Empire willingly but others showed resistance. Those who showed resistance were liberated, those who wanted nothing to do with the Empire were ignored, but eventually they joined out of their own free will. It was at this time the entire Homebase Universe was under Nova's control, a task that took over a hundred billion years. Through out the young Empire the Island of Solitude became the universal symbol of peace and prosperity with it's majestically unorthodox appearance for a starship. The Island holds many secrets that will never be revealed to the public but this one ship has seen just as many wars as Nova herself, all of them with VALeRY by her side. Today the Island has some conspiracy theories surrounding it but Nova refuses to talk about them, some have speculated that some of them are actually true. On it's exterior surface it contains Nova's personal garden as well as abandoned architectural projects made from various stone minerals. in the center are 3 mountains. The center contains the most advanced energy emitter that has actually been combined with a magic wand, this is located directly over V's core chamber. The smallest is a masa with a large turret on it that can also be used as a telescope. This turret is used for experimental heavy weapons and has been known to have been used in actual combat before. The 3rd and final mountain has a tall beam of light sprouting out the top that stops at a spire. This spire is considered the bridge but also acts as the bubble shield generator to the single most advanced weaponizable bubble shield in the history of the Empire. Inside this mountain is the large and luxurious living space of the island. Under the surface are sheer cliffs that drop down under the island that form a warped stalactite shape that meet up with other. The 3 stalactite spikes drop down 4 miles under the 7 mile long ship and are the source of the ship's beauty from under it. With in these spikes is not rock, but vast laboratories and machinery. This is Nova's home. This is VALeRY's home. This...is the cornerstone to the Empire's success.
"And no, it's not from fucking Superman, I CAN NOT stress this enough people. All of this content was made by ME and ONLY me. Except the Aperture labs, my version is only slightly different from the enrichment facility in the portal series, and the number Centillion, that was made by some mathematician somewhere."

The Sirus:
A starship that belonged to a now bankrupt mining company that specialized in mining rare elements from uncharted space. The ship was found floating towards the Skyburst Galaxy. The ship was stripped for parts by looters and pirates but Nova rebuilt it to suit her needs. The ship has access to 16 heavy laser turrets with 8 being on both sides. The mining laser was removed but was replaced with a more up to date one. Aside from that, the over all structure was removed and replaced with Dileoum and equipped with a standard hard light shield generator to protect it against most kinds of attacks. New computer systems and an OS were also installed, including the automated system program. The engines were also replaced with high powered gravity jets as well as a new hyper drive and warp drive. But this begs only one question, if the ship was completely rebuilt, what would happen if you were to use the old parts to build the same ship, which one would be the original ship?

The X Caliber:
A ship that was built by the bounty hunter "Gunshlave Blaztvic" known to have killed over 30,000 criminals before his death of poison by an unknown criminal organization that died out many years ago. His ship was confiscated by the government for safe keeping because of it's illegal sheilding and missiles loaded onto it. When Nova finally got her hands on it she found the ship to be a unique addition to her collection so she had the ship loaded onto the Sirus to be shipped to Eden Prime so she could replace the engine with a more effective one. Which was the only thing she wanted to change about this fantastically deadly compact vessel.

Angel Class Sentinels

Type Alpha:
The first angel sentinel created as it was originally an experiment with human based android technology from Earth 1, located in Homebase Universe. The Type Alpha serves as a prototype weapons expert with exceptional knowledge on all types of weapons in the Harmonic Empire and how to use them with maximum efficiency at long range. Over her operational life time she has been used to test experimental offensive and defensive systems. Though over time her AI began to develop a personality despite the fact of an outdated personality matrix being in place. The Alpha was dubbed Serena when her personality was noticed. Her outdated design has proven to be inefficient in combat with other high powered beings that utilize powerful magics such as rejectbloods. However despite this, Serena has proven to complete every mission that involves rebel extermination. Because of this Nova conceived of a new version of the Alpha after she created the type Bata, type Delta, and type Gamma. This new Angel was named Epsilon. Despite having a newer version of the type Alpha available, she ultimately has more experience with testing countless different types of weapons at many different targets. Because Epsilon never got Serena's felid data uploaded to her CPU before she was stolen.

Type Bata:
Only one type Beta was built as she was dubbed too dangerous to fall into the wrong hands if she was ever captured. Type Bata is built to hack almost anything. She has the ability to hack not only software, but also biological life. This means she can make targets forget memories or take control of them completely. Beta is also referred to as Nyxium or Nyx as chosen by her AI personality. Nyx has been put in charge of mission details and data retrieval from enemy servers in the past but eventually her over active CPU started to cannibalize itself, making her slowly forget her memories and forget who she is. Nova ultimelty had to deactivate her to conserve her mind while she fixes the problem, but before she could finish she received word that Epsilon was stolen. This urgent matter forced Nova to post pone the repairs. Nyx has no weapons and a weak oversheild as she is only meant to hack any form of computer form a distance away from the chaos that she can ensue. While she was on missions she usually set up a camp with the help of a team of worker sentinels.

Type Delta:
The most widely used angel in the infantry portion of Nova's military. This angel class sentinel is the only one to be mass produced because of it's vast success in missions in small groups of 6 to take down threats. The Delta is armed with mid and long range weapons on the wings with heavy sheilding and melee weapons installed in the arms for close quarters combat. The Delta is known to be much faster then the Alpha and more efficient at dodging fire as they are specifically designed for mid to close range combat both in the air and on the ground, and even in doors with a 99% success rate. The scanners may not be as powerful as the Alpha's but they more then make up for it with attack pattern prediction to be a few billion moves ahead of their target at almost all times. Another feature of the Delta is that they are equipped with a cloak, giving them the option to sneak up on their targets to strike from the shadows, though they are not as advanced as the stealth sentinels, who are known to almost never lift their cloak even when they attack their pray. Delta angels are also masters of most forms of melee weapons and shotguns but each angel has their own preference as they still have simulated free will, thus having a real personality to complement their love for combat.

Type Gamma:
LOCKED

Type Epsilon:
The MKII version of the type Alpha. Epsilon is equipped with 8 magic infused energy emitters in her wings that can be used to perform powerful ranged magic spells that can easily wipe out a solar system in a large variety of ways. The wings of Epsilon are composed of a multi dimensional alloy that is enchanted with powerful magics to make it change in size and shape to change wing types. Effectively giving her the ability to change her wing design to suit combat style she needs most at any given time. This material is not indestructible unlike Dileoum but is only very hard to damage. Epsilon can scan any weapon she sees and copy its effects to suit her needs in battle. One of the more notable things about her is she is the only angel that can sustain a super form. This mode has never been tested and given her unstable mind and unknown amounts of dark energy with in her it is unknown just how powerful she is. If Nova completed her work on her she would have created the ultimate killing machine that could even pose a threat to her if she wasn't careful. The main reason why rebels stole Epsilon is that she was specifically designed to kill purebloods. Epsilon is one of the most powerful creations Nova has ever conceived in her long life. Instead of a normal dark energy core as her heart she has a dark gravitational core, ultimately making her power level sky rocket above that of any other sentinel before her. But her rampancy combined with the metastability given to her by the salvaged dark energy cores from the other angels has made her more powerful and arguably more dangerous than originally planned. The AI programming was never completed for Epsilon and thus her strategic planning is partially corrupted and erratic. When the rebels reactivated her, the fragmented mind assembled itself into a warped version of what she was suppose to be. After killing everyone around her she leeched information off of the facility's server to gain bias information about Nova and her legacy. At the time her mind was slowly falling apart and she needed more power to remain stable. This, of corse lead to the deaths of more then one million Delta Angels. And so the hunt for Epsilon begun.

Type Zata:
LOCKED

Purebloods

The Pureblood legend:
"...We are the mothers of nature...
...We are the flowers of life...
...We are the guardians of peace...
...We are the fires of innovation...
...We are the spirits of reality...
...We are the Purebloods..."

Pureblood:
A being painfully ripped into existence by the Big Bang of that universe. They are beings that can shape shift to any multicellular life form with their true form being a floating ball of pure magic, energy, and information. They have a vast influence over the universe and possess incalculable amounts of magic with a mind faster then any supercomputer. Typically, they are ripped into existence with an IQ of 10,000 yet different pureblood species have different starting IQs. When ever a pureblood is killed their universe destabilizes and eventually collapses as a pureblood is essentially the consciousness of their universe. All purebloods have a few things in common, but most species have the ability to purify any curse or cure any sickness while being immune to them. However if a being is powerful enough casts a curse spell under the right conditions then it will not as easily be lifted, at least not for a while. Any pureblood is immune to magic and energy attacks as they can absorb them, though it has been reported that when a pureblood absorbs energy, it is possible for them to be sexually aroused. Most purebloods chose the human female angel form for a large variety of reasons, though they see it to be more agile as well as slightly less surface area to endure hits in battle. Nova has popularized this form because she was stuck in that form until she became the Elderblood, because of this, most other purebloods want to be as stylish or as "badass" as Nova herself. Most purebloods have some level of advanced combat and strategic knowledge. Older purebloods are much more skilled in battle and are known to be the unfortunate cause of various religions deities, though it is strictly illegal to intentionally make life worship Purebloods as gods. Most purebloods fallow this law but some break it due to their own nature requiring it to be a fundamental part of who they are.

The Common Pureblood: "Comblood"
These are the most common species of pureblood composing of more than 70% of the population of purebloods in the Empire. They have a maximum life span of 1 cycle though few survive long enough to live that long In fact most common purebloods get killed if they live long enough. This sad reality however is accepted among them as a part of life as they know that if anyone lives long enough, an outside force will eventually kill them. This is why they look up to Nova for guidance, much to her annoyance. Average power level of 1.

Gammabloods:
This species has an abnormally low IQ for Purebloods but makes up for it in power. They are well known to have very high power levels and must constantly use large amounts of magic otherwise their soul will explode and die. They are fast and agile and also have a very energetic personality with a tendency to never want to stay in one place and love talking about what ever comes to their minds. They are never allowed in public places where other Purebloods and life forms with inter universal travel are permitted to go because they cause massive damage to anything around them due to the large amount of radiation they give off as well as rarely going under the speed of light. This makes them not only dangerous to even be near but incredibly annoying for other Purebloods who are not negatively effected by radiation. Average power level of 77 and life span of 4.8 cycles.

The Pureblood Rejects: "RejectBlood"
These Purebloods are medically Insane and can suffer from a mild variety of mental disabilities that make them a danger to other life forms, they have a life span of around 1/2 cycles. They are vary gifted in Death, Blood, Dark, Demonic and other negative magic types. They typically try to kill, rape, or torture anything they see with their unfair power. In the Empire these universes are observed from a dwarf universe in orbit around the pureblood Reject's universe. This way other purebloods can safely observe and research the Rejects. The Rejects are an incredibly rare species of purebloods, in fact most of the time they are extinct but every few pureblood life times they are ripped into existence once again. Average power level of 1-41.

The Eternal Pureblood:
The rarest pureblood species ever, with only a total of 12 in the entire Harmonic Empire at a single time. All 12 are a part of the Eternal Circle, they are the ones who share HIGHLY classified information and debate on the political matters of the Empire. They are also in charge of domestic events such as the Space Wargames. Eternal purebloods are known to have a never ending life cycle and slowly get more powerful over time, the older they get the slower their power rises. When they almost die their power increases immensely. The eternal purebloods have equal opportunity to learn and master all subjects of knowledge the higher their purity level is. Of the few eternal purebloods in the history of the Empire they usually die at the Pure Level of around 57 if not higher. Unlike any other pureblood controlled universe, some of the main differences between them are some of the laws of quantum physics. Not all elements have a radioactive half life and even so, certain types of stars last indefinitely, a seemingly impossible feat through the conventional laws of nature. The 4th dimension dose not effect certain types of objects the same way in this type of universe and by extension the eternal pureblood. The most notable difference however is the over all stability of of their universe. Unlike other universes and purebloods, their unnaturally high stability are much more durable and do not age as apparent to the way the 4th dimension effects them. This means that a normally universe ending event would not destroy the universe belonging to an eternal pureblood. Attempting to age the blood in question into nonexistence would result in a paradox that can be harnessed to vanquish their foe if done quickly, otherwise this paradox could kill them if they are unlucky. Average level is 48-99.

The Elderblood: "The Purist of Bloods"
This subspecies was originally the most mysterious legend among Purebloods and other Celestial Beings. According to the legend, a Pureblood that has an endless existence will regenerate to reach her 100th regeneration and to go forth and discover endless knowledge for all eternity and vanquish any and all foes who threaten their domain while they spread love and light to all with in it. The only Pureblood to reach this level was the original Pureblood who died long before the first multiversal empire run by Purebloods, and the current, Nova Borealis. She has a power level of infinity and has a never ending life span, her base species was an Eternal Pureblood. The Elderblood has the unique ability to have unlimited potential all to learn and master any form of magic with out health problems similar to an Eternal Pureblood but incredibly more effective, excluding omnipotence and omnipresent spells. Over time the Elderblood's intelligence and cognitive thinking processes increases at a rate that slows over time similar to their power level, unlike their power, their cognitive processing dose not increase if they almost die. The Elderblood has a dramatically increased endurance to any form of attack, especially energy, magical and even dimensional based attacks. Their can only be 1 Elderblood in existence or all of reality would start to fall apart due to the highly impossible duality paradox.

The Elderblood legend:
"May the purest of bloods one day rise up for the ashes higher then all other bloods before her to vanquish all foes and grace their domain with love and light for all eternity."

This chapter will be updated when ever a new chapter releases that mentions a word that is importance to the story and is too complex for context clues for the average individual to understand.

Author's Note

This lore belongs to me and all the characters relating to them.

[01] Mission Start

Discord is floating on an upside down tree planted on a thorn bush observing the morning city of Canterlot. "Ugh how BOOOORING! Nothing really fun happens anymore."he says as he eats some cotton candy. To his surprise senses something is vary wrong, as if a powerful magic is interfering with the fabric of reality near by, "Hello...maybe I spoke too soon...oh who am I kidding! When this comes up to bite those ponies in the flank it will be HILARIOUS!" With the snap of his finger he teleports up to the vary top of Canterlot Summit and takes out a large telescope to observe the land below in search for the distortion.

The time is 12:00 AM and Luna is observing the sky and sighs in discomfort, still thinking that no one appreciates her beautiful night. A shockwave is felt coming from the sky, she flies up to see what caused it with much concern and yet ready's herself for combat. To her unfortunate dismay a loud cracking noise is heard from the sky and a rip in the fabric of reality opens up above her, the air is being sucked into the vacuum of nonexistence and Luna tries to fly away from what what would seem like her death...only to be rammed in the back by a falling hunk of metallic metal covered in what seems like a glowing yet flickering aura of blue hexagons. The object pushes the unconscious Luna forward and falls towards Ponyville. The city of Canterlot is woken up by this noise and look out their windows to see the object as its engines flicker off and smoke flies out the back and descends to the small village miles away. Luckily that rip in space time closed.

A loud crash is heard outside Twilight's castle, she runs over to the window to see pieces of her castle falling from the sky as a black object roars past her covered in a flickering blue light trailed by blue fire and smoke. Before it crashes however she notices a blue light fly off of it and land near her castle, stunned at the sight of Luna covered in ash and blood she flies over to her. "LUNA!" she cries out to her as she lands next to her, she turns to her, behind her in the sky the ship crashes into a field just outside of Ponyville yet not too far away from the Everfree Forrest. The look an Luna's face is one of exhaustion and pained as she collapses in front of the horrified friendship princess.

Fluttershy can only stare at the glowing inferno falling from the sky as her friends run over to her, to their dismay a torso of what seems to be a bipedal creature falls on her front lawn along with a few sleek mechanical limbs and equipment. The torso seems to have 8 wings on its back, the wings are all white, flat, and smooth, with blue lines running down from the base to the the tips, in the center of each wing a diamond shape with what looks like a camera lense in the center of it, the lines reach the edge of each wing fallowed by a massive trail of blue glowing liquid that seems to be making the grass catch fire coming from her. Each wing has a diamond shape as well. One of the wings is badly damaged and seems to be scorched by an unknown force, but the damage to the wing seems to have a white lights glowing coming from the damaged metal...if you could even call it that. Her arms and legs lay near by as they lay unmoving, with that blue glowing liquid leaking out of them. Large portions of the skin on the limbs and torso seem to be burned off revealing a flexible undercoating that has a similar texture to her wings, only covered in that blue glowing liquid as they appear to be torn and shredded, she's wearing some kind of medical gown, her expression is neutral yet you can see the slight spark of pain and desperate emotions coming from her. Her hair being pitch black and long, the color turns to silver about half way to the end of each strand, her eyes being blue and yet lifeless, unable to move her head she looks at Twilight with here eyes who hovers over her with bafflement.

The angel says with a desperate and sad tone "C-core uuuunssss-stAble...plEAse...h-hElp mE...systEmmm...s-shUtdOwnnnn..." Twilight felt horrified, wondering what could do such a thing to this human.

"What the hell is that!?" said Rainbow Dash as she points at the angel.

"its...a human..."said Twilight in shock looking over the body, collecting herself she carries the body and limbs with her magic.

"We need to get to that ship to find something to help her!" the friendship princess shouted in a determined tone.

"Are you crazy!? Their might be brain stealing aliens in there! What if they think we did this to their robot thing!" said Applejack in protest.

"She spoke Equestrian, so if we come in contact with any we can talk it out, but we don't have time to argue! Come on!" said Twilight as she begins to fly off towards the crash sight with the mane 6 close behind. Upon reaching the crash sight from the side, as they do they start to notice the details of it.

(For the sake of simplicity this is what the ship looks like)

(I do not own this image)

The ship seems to be over a mile long and has a white color to it, no indication of who it belongs to can be seen on its haul, giving it a strange vibe. "Wow...theirs no way this thing can fly..." said Dash as she looks at the vessel with a skeptical expression.

"I think it looks rather...unique, not bad, not good but...oh I guess theirs not a word to describe what I think of it really, if I could say anything about it it looks rather bulky" said Rarity as she examine the over all appearance of the ship itself.

"It looks like it was used for transport...look theirs an opening!" said Twilight as she points up to an array of 10 hangers side by side, with the doors open.

"And how do you suppose we get up there?" said Rarity.

"Remember that cloud walking spell I used on you guys when we went to Cloudsdale? That was permanent." said Twilight shyly.

"Hay I could get some clouds and take us up there!" suggested Dash, she flies away and brings back a cloud, flying around it at such a speed she carves it into carriage and brings it down for her friends to climb on. Fluttershy decides to ride in it despite being a pegasus.

"Not too fast Rainbow I don't want to drop these." suggested Twilight as she gestures the parts of the angel.

"Yeah yeah whatever." said Dash as she takes the ponies up to the hanger, she lands the cloud carriage next to a large pile of crates.

The mane 6 look around at their surroundings, the floor is gray and smoother than Canterlot Castle's floors, the walls are gray as well but parallel to the entrance is a door way, but above that is a strange symbol, its an atomic symbol that appears to be combined with a stylized magic circle. With the only things in the room are a few crates and a large black stealth fighter off in the distance of the large hanger.

"Oooooh scary!" said Pinkie as she picks up a strange device from a near by a crate, using her pony magic she accidentally pulls the trigger and fires a bolt of plasma and laser energy at the ceiling leaving a scorch mark, its a Light Hybrid Rifle.

"Pinkie! put that down before you kill somepony!" said Twilight.

"Right sorry!" Pinkie puts the rifle back on the crate.

"6 life forms detected, scanning...threat level 4, initializing in deep scan." said a monotone yet seemingly automated voice that's coming from feels like everywhere. The ponies feel a tingling sensation all over and inside their bodies.

"Scan complete, your goal is to repair the Angel Class Sentinel Type Alpha: Serena. Please fallow the blue line to the robotics lab." said the voice as a blue line appears in front of the mane 6 with arrows on it that points them to the door.

"Show yourself! I'm not afraid of you!" said Dash only to get no reply.

"Darling please, I don't think that thing wants to hurt us." said Rarity to reassure her friend.

"Besides, if they wanted to kill us they would have done it already, look" said Twilight as she points to the corner of the room with what appears to be a bigger version of what Pinkie fired earlier.

"That...looks like..." said Pinkie as she looks back at the crate with the gun on it. They all nervously walk towards the door.

The mane 6 see the door is rectangular and dose not seem to have any way of opening it, they get closer only for it to slide open all by itself.

"Heh, cool." said Dash as they all go through the door, it closes behind them.

They are inside a long hallway parallel to the hanger, the blue line points to the right. "What do you think would happen if we didn't fallow the line?" asked Pinkie.

"Ah think its best we don't find out." said Applejack as she tries not to think about it.

They all notice a door built into the wall of the hall, the lines turns to into it implying they should go there. Approaching it, the door opens and they are met with a small circular room with a glowing blue floor and no ceiling, the door closes and and a map of the ship appears on the wall, with a red blinking dot in the middle and a red line going up near the top of the ship and right under a location labeled The Bridge The ponies hear a soft humming sound coming from the floor and are lifted from the floor and a shot upwards at a slowly accelerating rate only to slow down shortly after and come to a complete stop, the floor under them forms under them and is transparent, it feels warm, as if their standing on light. They all screamed the entire way.

"W-what the...the...thing that AGH! My brain hurts!" said Dash in trying to figure out what just happened.

"What just happened?" asked Pinkie only to smite the narrator.

"It felt like a gravity spell...and this thing we're standing on feels like...I...I don't know" said Twilight while she looks closer at the hard light floor.

"Come now, we don't wanna keep that thing waiting any more" said Applejack trying to get everypony back on track. They all nod and exit the gravity lift. The room they are standing is has a white floor and gray walls, however this room is filled with robotic equipment, in the center of the room appears to be a frame that Twilight can put the angel on. She levitates it to the frame and arrange them properly, by putting the arms next to the torso and the legs on the sides of the crotch area. The all hear a humming sound coming from the frame, it appears to be holding the pieces in place a beep is heard and a few holograms show up in front of Twilight indicating multiple problems with the unit. They show her schematics of the sentinel, she reads them.

After a few seconds of silence Fluttershy speaks up "I-is she gonna be alright?"

In response Twilight says "Its hard to even comprehend the complexity of this technology but from what I can tell theirs something called a "dark energy core" in her chest that needs to be recalerbruated or replaced before it could have a meltdown." she notices as she talks the holograms display what would happen to the ship if she had a meltdown, an image of the ponies being vaporized and a large hole in the ship is formed from a large explosion, and unstable radioactive fallout pollutes an area of 1,200 miles around the ship.

"Well what are ya waiting for! Go fix her before that happens!" said Dash.

"Me!? No I-I can't do that...w-we need to contact Celestia!" said Twilight trying to find an excuse, to everyone's surprise the voice from earlier replies.

"Relaying message to communication network...error no communication satellites detected calculating alternate communication method...method found." said the voice as a pen and paper materialize in front of Twilight. "Scans indicate a dragon who has possession of quantum manipulation magic, this spell can be replicated when you are ready to send message to the given target." said the voice once more.

"That must be Spike! I might be able to send a message to the princess about our situation!"

Dear Princess Celestia

As I'm sure you are aware by now, a large object has fallen from the sky and Luna is in the Ponyville hospital, and you must already be there by now. My friends and I encountered what appears to be a human like robot in desperate need of repairs. We brought her back to her ship, from the looks of it no one is here, except for a voice coming from the ship itself. We have been shown no hostilities thus far. The voice offered to help me send this to you. Please come here as soon as passable, we may need your help to fix this robot before her damaged power source destroys Equestria.

Your friend
Twilight Sparkle

She finishes the message, the voice says "Indicate target life form."

Twilight says "Princess Celestia." in hopes that the voice will know who she's talking about.

"Target found." says the voice as an image of Princess Celestia is seen displayed on a monitor next to the frame, it shows that she is standing in front of the hospital looking at the ship with an expression of wonder and worry.

Author's Note

And so the journey begins...

[05] High Velocity Stormfire {PROXIMITY WARNING}

The time is still unknown but the sun is beginning to rise above the horizon. I continue to slowly accelerate seeing this energy form around me in a mach cone shape as I go faster. My speedometer reads 9,999 MPH, once I hit 10,000 though the energy that formed around me releases in a massive shockwave of unknown destructive energy, my speed suddenly doubles to 20,000 MPH and the sky starts turn from dark blue to black, not losing my momentum I turn around and fly back to the planet below, for the sake of science I fly into the center of the rainbow shockwave. I enter the center of the blast only for my speed to be doubled to 40,000 MPH, my proximity warning goes off seeing I am under 1,000 feet and dropping fast from the surface at a nose dive going thousands of miles per hour, I pull up with ease, ripping through the air and obliterating any clouds in my path. I start to circle the crash site at this speed creating controlled wind storm, the massive air pressures I create crush the air into clumps forming clouds, in a matter of seconds I have created a vary fast rotating storm cloud, like a controlled hurricane it thunders loudly in the morning air above the crash site. I activate my targeting system, making my eyes turn blood red as my HUD lights up to increase my perception and combat data.

I start to scan the ground below as I circle over the crash site in the controlled storm. Large bolts of lightning form in my wind storm ready to strike down anything it touches with the correct charge. The life forms below near the crash site hide under tree cover, making sure my wind storm powerful winds do not interfere with the surface I target a collection of life forms that are attempting to damage my ship from the forrest. They appear to be human shaped but have goat legs, my database indicates these life forms resembles minotaurs, but these are wearing suits of armor that resemble that of midlevel knights. I fire my homing lasers from my wings set to 2% power at them and set to the appropriate charge to attract lightning, they all hit their targets, making their armor attract lighting they are continuously struck with powerful bolts of lightning, after 4 strikes their life signs disappear. I slow down to a complete stop in a matter of seconds in the eye of my storm, it dissipates into the void of the deep blue sky, the Sun is just over the horizon now. I scan the area around my ship once more to find a large wolf made of what looks like wood, it attempts to through trees at me, I dodge them effortlessly, seeing that I never actually tested out the neutrino cannons I deploy one of them and aim it at the wolf. I charge it to 10%, in a single second all the air around me is crushed against the base of my cannon, sending me back a few inches as it releases a white beam of neutrinos at the target, it explodes in a huge ball of fire and causing a small forrest fire surrounding an impact crater.

My scans indicate the fire will spread to the town soon, I fly in closer and aim at the fire with my two CRGGs on my wrists and set the projectile type to cryogenic. I spin up the CRGGs and fire small projectiles at the trees that are on fire, upon surface contact an explosion of ice freezes the H2O in the atmosphere and covers the trees in a thin layer of ice, after a few minutes of putting out fires I fly back up to scan the area surrounding the ship, I locate Princess Celestia and a squad of guards standing near the cargo bay doors I used to exit the ship earlier but no other life forms seem to be around the ship. With my objective completed I decide to fly down to Celestia to greet her and her guards.

"Hello." I say to them, my eyes turn back to blue as they all look at me with shocked expressions.

"Wow....you make Rainbow Dash look slow..." said a white pony with blue hair, he approaches me. "My name's Shining Armor, the princess put me in charge of your guards, we are here to protect your ship from potential threats." he explained.

"Though from the looks of it you don't seem to need the protection..." said Princess Celestia.

"Negative, when I am preoccupied on missions, delicate scientific research, or social events it would be wrong of me to leave. I do not have much data referring to close quarters combat, and your guards have skill in that field of combat. Analysis indicates that using my new attack "Stormfire" may prove to be too destructive to use near a populated area, but I must ask, when I reach the speed of exactly 10,000 miles per hour my speed doubled along with a large shockwave, do you know anything about this?" I asked, curious if she knows anything.

"its called a sonic rainboom, until now, Rainbow Dash was the only pony capable of such speeds." the Princess explained.

"I see...we will need to discuss this on a later date. I have secured the location of hostiles around the Sirus." I said, noting the guards.

"Right than, I'll leave you in charge Shining, do anything she asks until I say otherwise." said Celestia. He gives a solute and she flies off to a carriage ironically pulled by ponies.

"What are your orders?" asked Shining, ready to do my bidding.

"Find any fallen trees on the ground and make a small but defendable wall around the ship, my ship is equipped with a fully functioning mining laser, but it can't be used as it is barred under rock and dirt, I need to have at least 50,000 tons of titanium to build the permanent wall for the fortress." I say only to receive a surprised look from the captan.

"YOU HEARD HER BOYS! MAKE US A WALL!" yelled Shining to his guards, the all solute and spread out to look for fallen trees

"Finding titanium may take a while...Equestria doesn't have enough to make a single armored carriage." said Shining.

"The Sirus has advanced scanning array that can be used to look for minerals." I say as I face the Sirus and Wirelessly activate the scanners to scan the ground within 1000 miles.

"5 titanium deposits detected, the nearest is at the foot of that mountain, no settlements are in the area." I say as get the mineral data and point to a mountain off in the distance, my vision zooms in to find it is surrounded by large sharp rocks with many cave systems.

"I'll inform the Princesses of this." said Shining.

"I have deployed 200 worker sentinels to help build the temporary wall, farewell for now, I shall return to check up on the progress in 3 days." I say as I fly off towards Ponyville while the cargo bay doors open and worker sentinels exit to assist building up the temporary defenses. My scans pick up another life form with a similar energy signature than Twilight and Celestia, I land in the middle of what would appear to be a park, I see a hospital. I walk down a path that leads to the hospital, passing by a few ponies who give me a few strange looks, some out of fear and other out of wonder. I make it to the hospital and stand in front of it, I see a large blue pony walk out of it, she has wings and a horn like Twilight and Celestia, she also has a mane similar to Celestia but it looks like the night sky, she notices me with rage in her eyes, I detect energy build up in her horn, I activate my targeting system, my eyes turn blood red and flair 6 of my wings, keeping my cannons down.

"DIE DEAMON!" she yells with a rather loud voice, she fires a beam of strange energy. I recall that combat data that the Sirus gave me about Celestia attempting to break in from earlier, given that my shielding is more powerful than the Sirus I do not dodge. The blue beam hits me, I am unfazed by this. My shields flare up and can be seen as tiny glowing hexagons that surround me. She stops firing after 3.6 seconds.

"You are incapable of killing me. I am not an enemy." I say to the enraged life form. A few ponies gather around the scene, seeing that this could case a loss in civilian life I launch myself into the air. The pony chases me and fires beams of energy at me as I fly through the town at ground level, dodging ponies that were likely on their way to get breakfast. I am in a populated area so she cannot attempt to fire back at me, but seeing that she has wings and a horn and only royalty seems to have these extra limbs in combination she must be as well. I decide to not fire my homing lasers at her and continue the hot pursuit through the town. I fly above the buildings and let her chase me to Twilight's castle in an attempt her authority may change her current mental state as she begins firing at me. I set my corse to a direct collision with the front doors, they are ripped from their hinges, I fly down the hallway and stop inside the meeting room where Twilight and her friends we're earlier, only Twilight, Spike and Starlight are in there now, they all look at me with shock I seem to have interrupted their breakfast, I change my positioning towards the door, and ready for close quarters dodging.

"Serena! What do you think your doing!?" yelled Twilight.

"I walked towards a hospital and a dark blue pony with wings and a horn attacked at me and attempted to subdue me, I have not shown hostilities towards her." I say quickly before she enters the room, I set my CRGGs to high powered stun.

"Set phasers to stun!" I say to her in my first attempt to make a joke, my CRGGs spin up and fire concussive beams of electricity, she attempts to doge but I track her movement, she crashes into the wall and gets hit by my beams, she is now stunned, twitching on the floor. My eyes return to blue as my targeting system is deactivated.

"What did you do!?" said Twilight in a panic.

"I stunned her, she was acting alarmingly hostile towards me so I lead her here to stun her and so I can escape before she recovers. I hope you can change her strong negative emotions towards me. Goodbye." I say as I fly out of the castle before she could reply.

Point of view: 3rd person

Luna recovers and gets back to her hooves, she notices Twilight "Twilight? Why did the demon not take you?" she said with slight confusion.

"Luna...that was Serena, she's an alien robot and we already established a truse with her. She's our friend." said Twilight.

"W-what? But it attacked us! We need to defend our selves!" said Luna as she imagines Serena murdering innocent fillies.

======

Meanwhile at the Ponyville school house Cheerilee is seen just outside, to her surprise she sees Serena sitting quietly on the grass holding a flower in an attempt to attract a near by butterfly.

======

"I don't think we should be worried about that, she's built for long range combat, but she's vary nice. Why don't you give her a chance?" explained Twilight. Starlight thought to mention that she almost killed her but thought against it as it would not help her situation.

"Did you not see that display of power in the sky not but a few minutes ago!? She must be stopped!" said Luna in protest.

"We just got a letter from Shining Armor saying that she was securing the area around her ship, so she got rid of a few thieves." said Spike as he points to the later on the table.

"Shining Armor? Where is he now?" Asked Luna as she begins to calm down but is still skeptical.

"At the crash site overseeing the defensive perimeter around the ship." explained Twilight.

"So my sister was here...and she is?" asked Luna.

"She went back to Canterlot to call in a meeting of the nations." said Starlight before she takes a bite out of a flower.

"I see...it would be best if to apologized to her than...e-excuse me." said Luna slowly before she walks out.

======

Point of view Angel Class Sentinel Type Alpha "Serena"

Just after she left.

I fly away from the castle and make my way to the other side of town, I slow down to 5 MPH as I approach what looks like a school house. I land softly on the ground and look down, feeling a small spark of emotion. "So much death...w-why must their most always be death..." I say with a small sense of sadness, I get down on my knees, after a few silent seconds I pick up a white flower and smell it, it smells nice. I see a butterfly flying near by, I move the flower up towards the butterfly trying to get it to land on it. An energy signature the size of a pony lights up on my KE tracker, I turn my head to the left and see another pony, this one however has a calm but curious expression on her face.

"Hello there, are you the one from that spaceship that fell from the sky earlier?" she said calmly as she walks towards me.

"Yes." I say

"My name is Cheerilee, I'm the teacher of this school house." said Cheerliee.

"it is nice to meet you miss, I am the Angel Class Sentinel Type Alpha, Serena." I say in response.

"Well that's quite a mouth full, do others call you just Serena?" she asked.

"Yes." I said as a few more ponies come up on my close range KE tracker, they are smaller than the others, I assume they are children. I see a few small ponies walk up to the school, one by one they notice me.

Author's Note

Here's a few fight scenes to ease your thirst for violence as Serena dominates the competition with GLORIOUS SCIENCE!
I assure you, their is still many more firefights to come...this rabbit hole goes miles deep and we have only gone down a few inches.

Necra

Twilight and Luna look at the projection before them of Necra in the cockpit of the Sirus, she gets increasingly uncomfortable.

"P-please don't hate me...I-I was just looking around and I found this thing and it did this when I fell in." said Necra in an increasingly desperate tone as if she just killed some one.

"Ok, just calm down...and give use the story of how you got there." said Twilight in an attempt to see reason in this strange situation.

"When I got back to my hive in southern jungle my general tried to assassinate me, I escaped my hive and made it to Ponyville in an attempt to find a small chance of survival..." said Necra, as she explains the two princesses before her look worried yet skeptical.

"My hive managed to gash my leg before I escaped, so I came here barely alive...I saw Alpha Base and...I don't know...from what I've been told I was found passed out at the front door and was taken to the medical bay, they patched me up and I asked Serena to be her assistant since I have no where to go." said Necra in a descending tone. Part of Twilight thinks she's lying but given her behavior at the meeting she decided to give her the benefit of the doubt.

"...So what happened to your hive? Won't they try and take you back if their's no queen?" asked Twilight.

"Yes, but the likelihood of an attack on Ponyville with Alpha Base being so close is unlikely...plus I-I know what they'll do to me if they find me..." she said as that last part gives her the shudders.

"And, just what WILL they do to you?" asked Luna still skeptical giving Twilight feel uneasy as she has read enough books to know that happens in Necra's situation should she be captured.

"...A-a changeling hive has two leaders, the Queen who is in charge of the over all the hive and the king who is charge of strategic planing of the security or activities during wartime...If...their is no queen then the hive will surely die unless she gives birth to a new queen...a-and in order for that to happen...I must be impregnated by the king..." said Necra as feels slightly insulted and embarrassed as well as a bit of fear can be heard in her voice.

"So?" said Luna not getting a straight answer.

"I'll be raped ok!" said Necra a bit annoyed by the night princess, she recoils back a bit at the sudden bust of negative emotion.

"...Well we got a changeling queen on our side now, thats good right?" suggested Starlight walking over to the scene.

"I'm just here to do research...in fact Serena herself is the most fascinating thing I've seen..." said Necra thinking back to the readings she got on her when she scanned her for love emotions.

"I'm sure...but I advise not trying to pose a threat to her, she is the one who did this to me...you...don't want to know." said Luna looking at her foreleg noticing the burn scars.

"I...suppose your right about that...But I'm not your enemy, I've wanted nothing but peace with your kind...clearly my children did not have the same goals...soon or a later they will come for me so I think it would be best to put up some defenses around the town, I'll help in any way I can should you require it." said Necra regaining her composure.

"I'll keep you updated." said Twilight.

"Me as well." said Luna, Twilight terminates the call.

Necra flaps her wings to try and get out of the cockpit but finds she can't, after a few moments she gives up. "Agh...how do I get out of here...isn't their en eject button or something?" she said to no one in particular, but 3 seconds after she said eject the controls and HUD vanish as the rings move back into the platform, Necra is slowly lifted back up as a hard light floor materializes under her to give her footing. Necra smirks and says "I'm going to like it here..."

Necra wanders the Sirus, she ends up in the hanger, she begins to think about Serena, she must be confused...maybe some social contact will comfort her. Necra takes note of her surroundings, some the objects stored in here must be vehicles. She notices the large open hanger bay door and flies towards it, she sees a few ponies look at her in fear. Necra lands softly on the ground with a nervous smile, she approaches them very slowly. One of the ponies is a unicorn mare with a mint green coat, yellow eyes and harp cutie mark, while the other is a beige earth pony mare with blue eyes and a blue and pink mane. The earth pony take a defensive stance, ready to attack.
(Lyra and Bon Bon)

"Oh uh...s-sorry for bothering you...I'll let you two do your thing..." said Necra as she begins to walk away.

"Wait...so your not here to invade?" asked the earth pony.

"No, that's Chrysalis's deal, my hive tried to kill me so escaped and came here, now I'm Serena's new assistant." explained Necra.

"Why did they do that?" asked the unicorn.

"I tried to make friends with you ponies and tried to find alternative ways for harvesting love with out damaging the host so both of us benefit and not just one...and they apparently tried to steal one of Serena's ships while we were suppose to be having a peaceful meeting between nations." said Necra to the two ponies.

"Oh yeah I heard of that, didn't she kill a few changelings?" said the unicorn.

"I told my general to only guard me and supply input if needed...as it turns out he's the one who ordered to steal her ship, and surprise surprise, he tried to assassinate me in my sleep...honestly they can burn in Tartarus for all I care now..." said Necra as she says that last part with disgust.

"So your not going to try and steal our love?" said the earth pony.

"I should last at least a month...but I suppose I'll need to figure that out eventually...but I mean you no harm!" said Necra, adding that last part as to not scare the ponies.

"Oh, well I'm Bon Bon and this is Lyra." said Bon Bon as she gets more relaxed.

"My name is Necra." said Necra. After a few minutes of talking I tell them I'm looking for the Aperture Labs they say they don't know and leave but Bon Bon comes back.

"One of the sentinels told me that their's a gravity lift in those towers, they should lead you to the labs." and with that said she leaves. Necra flies over to the east watch tower and lands at the base of it. Before her is a large tower built into the wall. She sees a door and approaches it only to slide open for her to walk in. The room is tall and reaches up to the top of the tower, 15 feet above the floor built into the wall is a large assortment of wires and circuitry a few bright white lights. The well is covered with large quantum converters big enough to form and launch small missiles inside them however they are higher up, everything inside the tower doesn't seem to be finished as their are still many worker sentinels working on the machinery. The floor is black with a hole in the center and a hard light floor covering it. Necra walks over to it and stands on it. Thinking back to the Sirus's cockpit when she said eject this might be voice activated as well.

"Down." said Necra, in response the hard light disappears and Necra gets suspended in a controlled fall down to the Aperture Labs. After falling for 1 minute Necra gracefully lands in a large cavern like room, on the other side is what looks like an office building. The building has white walls and windows, inside the building are a few offices with the bottom floor being a lobby. Necra flies over to it and enters the lobby. The floor is a brown carpet with the walls being pale yellow, to the right Necra sees a counter with no one there, no one to answer when you ring that little bell. To the left are a few couches and chairs surrounding an oak coffee table along with a black monitor built in the wall. At the end of the room she sees another door with a monitor on it, with the words "WELCOME" on it. Necra walks over to the door for it to open, to her surprise its a small white room with another identical door on the other side but with no monitor. She enters the small room in confusion, only for the door behind her to close.

"Beginning decontamination sequence." said an automated male like voice, after it says this the air becomes tingly as small sparks of light are seen everywhere, Necra shivers at this as she feels both warm and cold in an uncomfortable fashion. When the process is over she feels a million times cleaner, as if every single spec of dirt and microscopic organism has been vaporized from every inch of her skin. The door opens and Necra slowly walks out of the room. The room before her is much larger then she thought, so large that its mostly shrouded in darkness. A few lights can be seen on the very large cubic frame fills the room. Necra soon notices some parts of the frame are covered with white panels that are attached to rails that cover the frame. Necra notices she is standing on one of these white panels now. She notices a large collection of panels coming from the frame and even small wormholes are arranged in to form a room off in the distance. Necra flies over to it, she then looks for an opening, to find one in the ceiling. After that she flies in to find the room is well lit and composed by white panels, with the only thing in the cubular room is red couch, with Serena laying on it. She doesn't seem to notice her even though she is looking at the ceiling motionless. Necra lands next to her and notices her eyes are open but her irises seem to be changing in shape slightly as many small symbols can be seen. Necra leans in to get a closer look but is careful not to touch her. Serena's eyes are still indeed blue but now that she gets a closer look she notices her pupils are like a hyper advanced camera with built in sensors with complexity beyond that of her comprehension. Looking towards her iris she sees many the small symbols are actually numbers and circular lines all are moving in a circular pattern an such a way that Necra can only assume she must be processing a massive amount of information right now, given that her face is slightly red she must be hot. Serena blinks and her eyes return to normal as her vents push out steam, her face return to normal.

Serena

CONCLUSION: Artificial souls are one of the most advanced technological creations in the Empire, I am the Angel Class Sentinel Type Alpha Serena, I am a weapon built for long range and high speed combat, the only magical abilities I am currently aware of are self regeneration, G force control and Sky Queen mode. It would be illogical for my creator to install an MEAI instead of an AI as MEAIs generate power, and do not use power.
ERROR: Multiple factors still remain unknown due to memory corruption.
TASK: activating cooling system
NOTE: Why do I feel unknown emotions about this information...
ALERT: A life form has been detected.

I wake up from data processing to see Necra inches from my face, she recoils back to give me some space.

"S-sorry I just thought you had some questions...Are you...ok" Said Necra with a hint of shyness.

"Y-yes...thank for your concern." I say to her. I begin to feel a small spark of happiness...as if I'm relived that some one came to see me.

Necra gives me a small smile and says "You always seem so sad...I thought you could use some company...Or you know...some one to relate too." said Necra. I feel that strange feeling from before in my chest at her gesture...I...don't think I've been treated this way before. I begin to notice her appearance with greater detail then before. Necra's eyes are icy blue as her mane is black with a few streaks of pink in it, her horn is slightly jagged with a few holes in it, these holes must have been caused by lack of nutrition.

"T-thank you..." I say to her.

The Crystal Empire

Cadence is enjoying an afternoon walk through the town after a long day of paperwork. Waving to a few ponies who greet her. Soon all the ponies go indoors to enjoy their dinners so Cadence decides to go home as well. Being alone in the streets near her castle she suddenly feels a powerful chill blow through her, she turns around in surprise. What she sees is an angel like Serena...but this one is about half her size, as if she's a child. Her hair is pitch black with a few streaks of deep glowing violate and blood stained red, with her eyes being dark violate as well. Her outfit appears to be a black cloak reminiscent to that of a nun's outfit, except drenched with blood and torn in multiple places. Her wings are thin but razor sharp sword like spikes that curve down at a slight angle that have rings that seem to give off a dark power in their gap near the base of each spike, the wings are all dark violate but yet she gives off a black aura that would even make Nightmare Moon no even Sombra afraid of the dark. It is the single most unnatural thing Cadence has ever seen. The very light around her seems avoid her out of fear as she is sarounded by her unnaturally large shadow.

She smiles in such a way that make Discord look sane and simply says. "Hello little horsy....c-could you tell me what is love is?" Her voice sounds like that of a child but yet a demented and soulless child that was so twisted that not even Saten would dare touch her, the tone her voice is curious yet genuine. Cadence steps back as she looks at this strange being, she notices that the angel is holding a severed unicorn horn leaking blood.

[20] Your Heart is in Another Castle

Planet Equus

Serena

Four days have past sense the fall of the Crystal Empire, many ponies are now homeless and are taking up temporary refuge in a camp site set up in Alpha Base. During these past few days I have been under the base deep inside the labs hooked up to the mainframe constructing schematics of a new weather control unit for the city, but I'll need the crystal heart to do further research on the matter. I'm in a large dark room surrounded by monitors holograms, I appear to have wiring connected to my wings hooked up to the mainframe.

"Necra, what are your thoughts on going on your first mission?" I ask her. Necra is sitting at her desk near by, she looks up from her desk monitor.

"A mission? What do you need?" asked Necra.

"The crystal heart generated a bubble of controlled weather around the city, I'm creating a schematic of a replacement castle that doubles as a weather control tower similar to how it was originally, I can't continue until I actually have the crystal heart here." I explain.

"Wouldn't getting it in the middle of an ice storm be easier for one of the sentinels?" suggested Necra.

"Yes, but I want you to retrieve it." I say to get a surprised expression.

"Changelings don't exactly have a great history with the leaders of that country." said Necra a bit worried that Cadence and Shinning Armor may get the wrong idea.

"If you want to earn the respect of ponies you should be the one to deliver the heart to me. I would advise consulting Cadence or Shining Armor first before you take one of the ships." I inform Necra. During these past few days Necra has been taught how to use her headset. She wears it at all times to keep her informed of mission details with the HUD as well as make it easier to interface with the lab. She's also been doing well in the flight simulators but she still has a 73% survival rate with driving a normal ship. I'll give her a waypoint to an easier to drive ship...the X Caliber should suit her needs, though she'll half to use her interface gloves to drive it. Necra wears black boots on her forelegs made of nanofibers and tipped with micro mass projectors powered by magic built to withstand the elements of nature as well as being resistant to an impact of over 300 MPH. These gloves should make it easier for Necra to use controls designed for more biologically developed life forms, though she is still learning how to use her activatable fingers.

"You got it boss." said Necra as she gives me a playful solute and walks out of the room. I might need to keep an eye on her, just in case.

Necra

I walk out of the control center to be met with the deepest depths of the Aperture Labs. I stand on the floor of the colossal cavern room, around me are no buildings, only that cubical rail system that fills the room, leaving the room mostly empty. Behind me is the gravity pillar, under that is the central control center as the gravity pillar appears to float above the building in a controlled fashion. I'm 30 miles below the ceiling of the labs so I'll need to hail a tram. I just let myself have a controlled fall all the way down here the first time. I hail a tram with my headset. A pill shaped capsule descends from the rail system the ground before me. The doors open and I get inside to take my seat on one of the plush chairs.

"Surface." I say simply as the tram doors close and the tram shoots straight up. Three minutes later the tram slows down to the office building. I leave the tram and make my way out of the labs to the surface. I walk out of the east watch tower to be met with many tents set up in Alpha Base surrounding the Sirus. I take the form of a brown pegasus pony mare to go unnoticed in crowd of refugees. The waypoint on my HUD indicates the locations of the X Caliber which is parked in the Sirus ship hanger ready for take off and the leaders of the Crystal Empire. Cadence and Shining Armor are at the base of the ship sitting in front of the open cargo bay with a few crates filled with medical supplies around them, most likely consulting their advisers about managing the population. About 24 minutes later I have them in my sights and proceed with my mission. I revert back to my original form getting a few gasps from the crowd around me as they back up in fear. I nervously smile as silence washes over the area.

"What do you want bug?" said Shining Armor with venom in his voice.

"Serena wants me to go to the Crystal Empire to retrieve the crystal heart." I say sheepishly. I get a shocked look from him.

"I'll die before I let you steal the heart!" yelled Shining, but before he could make a move on me Cadence stepped in.

"Why do you need the Heart?" she asked.

"W-We're working on an updated version of your castle so you can move back to your homes and make the ice melt. But we can't continue the research until we actually have the crystal heart with us so we can conduct tests." I say but to get no reply.

"Personally I think it would be a bad idea to leave such a powerful relic unguarded in the middle of an icy wasteland where anyone could steal it...and King Sombra might have a resurrection spell laying around somewhere...so no matter what you think it's still a good idea to bring it here regardless." I say, gaining more confidence as I go on. The royals before me ponder the thought for a moment.

"I think it's a good idea." said a yellow pony with an icon that resembles burst of sunlight for a cutie mark.

"You may have a point...who knows what could be out there." said Cadence in a worried tone.

"Ok, you can go, but I'M coming with you!" said Shining Armor.

"Fine, you can come, I'll have some one to talk to in the ship." I say as I walk past him into the cargo bay. Shining catches up with me.

"Woah woah woah, your taking the ship? Do you even know how to drive one of those things?" said Shining Armor a bit shocked that I would even know how to drive one.

"Oh you don't know how? How are you gonna get to the nearest galactic strip club then?" I toy with him.

"Yeah, REAL funny, just like that time your kind attacked Canterlot." said Shining, clearly mocking me due to the actions of a different queen.

"Says the inceptive perfect prince stereotype from fantasy land." I retort, Shining Armor stays silent as I clearly put him in his place. A few minutes later we make it to the hanger. The X Caliber is prepped and ready to fly.

"So your not taking the Sirus?" asked Shining Armor.

"Taking a Hybrid Class Starship to retrieve one relic no bigger then my head? Yeah, that's a great idea." I say coyly.

"OK OK, I see your point. But are you SURE you know how to drive this?" asked Shining Armor, I sense a spark of fear with in him.

"You scared?" I ask as I fly up to the windshield, causing it to disappear.

"No, It's just I think it may be too complex for somepony with no..." said Shining as he trailed off.

"Hands?" I say as I show my fore legs to him with my boots activated. Two hands made of hard light powered by my own magic and directly connected to my nerves to act as real hands are shown before him.

"Y-yeah...those...." he said, a bit jealous at my upgrade. I get into the cockpit and start the engines.

"Well? Come one then." I say after a few seconds of waiting. Shining Armor climes in with some difficulty, taking to slow I simply levitate him with my magic and carry him inside the ship behind me and set him down.

"Don't do that!" Shining protested.

"Please, you were taking to slow...think fast!" I say as I activate the windshield and launch the ship forward, sending Shining flying back into the cabin. He slowly gets up and walks back towards me with much anger in his eyes.

"Do that again, I'll break your neck." he said with clear disgust.

"And make us crash in Ponyville, killing a few hundred ponies? Yeah, good idea your highness." I remark.

"Just shut up and drive." said Shining, giving up making small talk.

"I'm not like Chrysalis you know..." I say a few minutes later to ease the tension as we fly by Canterlot. I sense the anger in Shining Amor dissipate, but clearly still there.

"Well you didn't ponynap Cadence...but if you plan on doing anything funny then I'll make you pay." said Shining, still reluctant to accept me as a friend.

"I'm dieing...starving of low love supply...and yet all I can get are small sparks of love from Serena...yet it is not enough to keep me alive for much longer...I could hardly cast that levitation spell. I would never do what that retched witch would do...I would never go to such extremes." I say to try and convince him I am not his enemy. Silence engulfs the ship until we make it to the Crystal Empire. The Crystal Empire's capital city lay covered with ice as the only source of light in the emits of the stormy night is the glow of the still active crystal heart. I get a few abnormalities on the scanner.

"What is it?" asked Shining.

"I'm detecting a few magical anomalies in the area, they don't seem to be emitting from the heart...I'm taking us down." I say as I land the ship and deactivate the windshield. I jump out as Shining fallows me. I take in my surroundings, the sky is dark with the shroud of night as the buildings around me seem to be in good condition, yet others are in ruins. The once beautiful crystal castle is in shambles as only its base remains untouched. About half the city is shattered by the fallen upper half of the castle. The crystal heart glows faintly in the center, waiting to be retrieved.

"Come on, we need to get the heart before what ever's here gets it first." I say as I run towards the heart, the closer I get to it the stronger I become...as if it's radiating love magic. Shining notices this as we get closer, I suspect he may think I may try and steal it regardless of what I say to him, granted we both have the same goal. We make it to the crystal heart, a blue floating crystal in the shape of a heart that gives off love magic, I unwittingly absorb the magic that radiates in my direction. Shining, surprisingly does not notice this, I turn around to find he's looking into the dark surroundings. I scan the area to see if their's any change in the anomalies. The shadows of frozen ponies begin to stand up and take on a physical form. They begin to approach us with white glowing eyes. Shining Armor deploys a violate bubble shield around us with his magic. My scans indicate these figures are the combined result of the left over dark magic from Epsilon combined with the dark magic remnants that was here originally. I imagine that King Sombra must be regenerating somewhere in the area.

"Cover your eyes!" I say to Shining as I absorb as much love as I can to boast my power so I can give off a shockwave of light from my horn. The shadow figure retreat back into the darkness as Shining grabs the heart with his magic and runs back to the ship with me close behind. Shining jumps into the ship with the heart tightly in his grasp. I get in the cockpit and activate the windshield, and in a matter of seconds we take off on route to Ponyville.

Author's Note

Now, why would Necra call Shining Armor "Inceptive"?
Because he wears shiny armor when his actual name is "Shining Armor". It only proves the fact he is kinda a 2 dimensional character. It also makes for a bad pun.

My Little Bubble Shield, My Little Bubble Shield
AaaaAaaaaaAaaah~
My Little Bubble Shield
I used to wonder what defense could be
Until you all shared Halo 3 with me!
Big rewards!
Tons of guns!
A beautiful get away
fearful and trolltastic
Looting corpses
It's an easy kill
And science makes it all complete!
My Little Bubble Shield
Did you know, it is my very best loadouuuuuuuut...

I had to, I really did.

============================================

1 week later, the Ruins of the Crystal Empire

A week has past sense Nova took down the rebel fleet a few galaxies away from Equestria. Serena and Necra have completed their research on the crystal heart, much to Shining Armor's dismay. Luckily for our heros Princess Cadence is starting to become suspicious of her husband's actions and decided to order her guards to keep an eye on him while she walks over to the east watch tower of Alpha Base to talk to Serena or Necra about the matter.

======
Cadence

I make my way out of the refugee camps of my ponies and stand before the east watchtower. A sentinel flies towards me, this one seems to be black with white lines painted on, as if the designer attempted to make it look like a butler.

"Hello mam, how can I help you today?" says the sentinel in an accent I've never heard before.

"I'm worried for my husband...I was hoping Serena might be finished with the heart." I say with a hint of worry.

"Ah, yes, their coming up now, as for your husband's state, I have been informed that he could be infected with an unknown dark magic based virus, and your guards aren't the only one's watching him." says the sentinel.

"N-no...it can't be... u-um so who else is watching him?" I ask with disturbed curiosity as I begin to suspect Sombra might have something to do with this.

"I'm not at liberty to say, but not to worry, those who are watching him are with us." said the sentinel as I relax a little. The door to the watch tower opens, revealing Serena and Necra.

"Hi Cadence, is something wrong?" says Necra with a chipper tone.

"Is Shining going to be ok?" I ask with concern.

======

Serena

"Their is much I do not know about the types of magics that exist on this planet. But I have detected a spiritual disturbance with in him. If we do not cure him soon then he may never be the same." I say as I know full well that any pureblood could reverse the process at any time, but Nova isn't here...no...I must expect to never see her again...until I finally lose functionality in the estimated time frame of 4 quadrillion years.

"I'll have my guards dampen his magic." suggests Cadence.

"No, even if you tell your guards to turn on him, some may be loyal to Shining more then you. We need to lure him back to the Crystal Empire. We've modified a reactor missile to explode into recreating atomic structures given a shape. meaning when it is set off in your Empire it will be rebuilt in a matter of seconds" I say to a rather stunned Princess.

"He'll never expect it." says Necra.

"That's...wow, I don't even know what to say...are you sure it will work?" asks Cadence.

"I've run a few hundred simulations on the matter, so far it has a 98% chance of rebuilding the Empire." I say to comfort her.

"And what of the other 2%?" asks Cadence.

"Don't worry about it." says Necra as we both know that their is that slight possibility of the ruins being deatomized.

"Ok...but how do we deliver this missile?" asks Cadence.

The Sirus is the only ship that can launch a reactor missile, so we'll half to fly it over to the ruins to restore them." I say as I point to it, surrounded by camps.

"It's already been loaded into one of the missile silos." adds Necra.

"What about the crystal heart?" asks Cadence, only for it to suddenly phase into existence floating next to Necra, as if it came out of a stealth felid.

"After what Shining said I doubt it would be wise to let everyone see it as we fly to the ship." I say to Cadence.

"Point taken, shall I inform everypony to start packing into the Sirus?" she asks.

"Yes." I say.

Nova

one week ago

"It wasn't a request, resistance is completely futile." I say with a disappointed tone. I phase through the glass, strange, I'd expect them to have a hard light windshield technology...perhaps they don't have the resources to do so, this IS a terrorist fleet after all. The bridge is small with a few consoles built into the wall and terminals that surround the captain's chair. The controls are being operated by surprised and terrified reptilian aliens different then the ones I just fought, they must have been genetically modified specifically for battle, this must be what the natural species appears. Sitting in the captain's chair is a male cyborg human from the Earth of universe 28-427 GB.

"So...your from a Gammablood's universe? How odd, usually the humans from their universes are peaceful." I say directly to the human male.

"Is that all we are to you? Petty cannon fodder?" he asks, with venom in those words.

"I put laws in motion to best suit the sentient life with in MY Empire, you fail to understand the simple fact I only try to do what's right to prolong the happiness of ALL life, not just sentient life." I say as I attempt to to negotiate with him.

"No being should ever have your kind of power." says the human with clear disgust in his tone.

"I earned this power over the corse of 153 megacycles. The public does not know what lies beyond the Empire, let alone what lurks within the deep void, and it's best to KEEP it that way, that is unless you want total anarchy and mass panic then by all means, CONTINUE your futile effort of overthrowing me and my government." I say with an annoyed tone.

"What could possibly be in the deep void? Why keep something that insignificant a secret? Or perhaps its not so safe in the void as you thought!" says the human. My patents grows thin as my wings spark red for a moment out of anger.

"Agh...OK, just what are you even DOING here anyways?" I ask.

"Same as you, we're looking for Epsilon." he says.

"No data relating to Epsilon is on your ship's computers." says V from the ship's intercom.

"You know as well as I that I can force you to tell me where Epsilon is in many different ways. Are you going to make this easy on yourself and tell me truthfully? Or am I going to half to engage in mental warfare." I say.

"We know just as much as you at this point." he says, though I can tell even with out my scans that he's desperately trying to hide behind his seemingly brave body language.

"He's lying." says V.

"Well WE know that...but do you care to elaborate on it?" I say I slowly walk towards the human rebel, I fire off a homing laser from one of my wings to swiftly burn through the head of one of the crew members of the bridge.

"...We picked up a faint static signal from a world that hasn't developed wormhole communication." says the human as his confidence starts to dwindle.

"His facts check out." says V as she goes through the ship's files.

"Thats good and all but I could have asked V for that information at any time, tell me something that we can't just look up from your patchwork ship's mainframe." I say as I kneel down to his level, a blue flame glows around my eyes to intimidate him.

"T-that's all I know...." he says with fear in his voice.

"You speak...the truth...V? Send him to the brig. We can question him about Slayer later." I say as I stand back up. The human suddenly teleports away into the brig of my ship.

"You are free to go...but be warned, I called the Lavarien Empire, you should all be arrested soon enough by their forces, may the stars have mercy on you all." as soon as I finish that statement I launch myself backwards with a powerful flap and the thrust of my wings back to my ship.

Serena

present

After about 2 hours of loading the displaced citizens and supplies of the Crystal Empire onto the Sirus I activate the engines. All life with in visual range of Alpha Base can see the ship begin to rise. The engines start to hum to life as we leave the ground. Standing behind me is Necra and the 2 leaders of the Crystal Empire, along with the elements of harmony.

"Wow...so this bucket of bolts really CAN fly." says Rainbow Dash as she and her friends look out the window to see us rising.

"Well this IS an alien spaceship darling." says Rarity as she incorrectly calls the Sirus a spaceship and not a starship. I fire the engines and set corse for space, the ride is smooth as the engines give off little to no vibration through out the ship.

"This is so incredible!" yells Twilight with glee as if she's a stereotypical anime school girl with stars in her eyes.

"I have never driven a starship before, though the fundamental controls are similar to Sky Queen mode." I say to no one in particular.

"Is that what that robot thing you turned into called?" asks Pinkie.

"It's just the name of the protocol, though the actual mech is an archangel, mine is called the White Phenix." I say as we leave the atmosphere. The ponies and X queen stop listening as they see the window be engulfed in flames to suddenly vanish to the void of space. Twilight slowly flies next to me.

"We are higher then any pony before us...the first ponies in space..." says Twilight as this must be a monumental occasion for their species. A moment that will surely go down in their history books. The ponies notice the sky is not that of what they see every night.

"Is that...a galaxy!? But why is it so close!? Why is it that we never see THAT every night!? It's not scientifically possible!" says Twilight as she starts to slowly lose it.

"Yes it is." I say simply.

"REALLY? How?" asks Twilight, desperate for an answer.

"An enchanted bubble shield that surrounds the planet that has the fundamental appearance to alter what is displayed to it's initiator through a complex system of projectors and magical enchantments." I say to answer her question, but yet not even she understands it entirely.

"Look sugarcube, ah think it's best you don't think about it much now." says Applejack as she attempts to calm her.

"Is that the Crystal Empire?" asks Necra as she points to a dead area in the middle of a icy wasteland on the planet below.

"Yes...it is..." says Cadence as she stairs at it in shock.

"It looks...wrong." says Necra. The HUD on the window shows a circle around the area to show a label that reads the name of the location along with minerals deposits, magical residue, and life in the area. The label reads, Crystal Empire. Cadence sheds a single tear as the destruction caused by the battle can be seen from space.

"Beginning decent." I say as I fly us towards the ruins. The ship catches fire once more on the outside but we begin to slow down near the edge of dead farmland outside the ruins.

"Necra?" I say.

"Yes Serena?" she asks me with a smile on her face.

"Get off my ship." I say as Necra jumps off the floor and flies towards the windshield as is suddenly vanishes to reveal the X Caliber come into view as it warps in front of us. She gets in the cockpit and turns the ship around as the modified reactor missile launches form the silo to home in on her. In a flash all the ponies on the ship are suddenly teleported to the ruins of the Crystal Empire. The Sirus has a short power surge due to this as it begins to fall for a moment to resume floating. Cadence, Flurry Heart, Shining Armor and the elements find themselves standing next to the dead pedestal that once housed the crystal heart. The X Caliber flies right at them as if on a collision corse but pulls up just in time, letting the reactor missile collide with the pedestal. The missile is halfway in the ground with no impact crater, as if it dug itself in to it's seemingly unnatural position. It blasts off it's casing to reveal it's increasingly unstable power core, glowing brighter and brighter as it goes critical. As it does this the engine of the missile falls apart to reveal it's bubble shield generator. It shoots a beam into the sky to encase the entire city in a large bubble shield. All of this, in 4 seconds. The reactor ignites and explodes, but instead of swiftly and violently killing everyone in the city the energy of the explosion converts itself to magic to reconstruct the entire city, atom by atom, all with in 9 seconds. The now dead landscape teams with life as the snow still falls from the sky, at the same time the bubble shield fails and vanishes. I descend from the clouds with the crystal heart in my hands and gracefully land by the pedestal. I notice that Shining Armor is starting to panic.

"Your existence has been denied." I say as I let the heart float back into it's resting place. Suddenly the castle lights with power as the happiness of the citizens starts to power the generator on the top of the castle. With one powerful shockwave originating from the Crystal Heart the snow starts to melt away as well as any dark magic residue. Shining Armor starts to scream in pain as a shadow is forced out of him to slowly evaporate in thin air. The X Caliber shoots off firework missiles to explode in an aesthetic fiery display.

[35] Legendary Ending

Nova Borealis

Legenedary Ending

"Wait I thought you were rubbing one out?" asks Dash as she shatters the mood. I face palm and look at V completely bemused.

"Really V? Agh...Ok, yes I just masterbated, but come on! It was like having a vibrater shoved up my genitals for 2 million years! Girls gotta find SOME relief." I say in an attempt to relate to the many girls around me.

"Your a hermaphrodite Nova." says V bluntly.

"Grrr we literally just met! They don't need to know that!" I say as with anger as my wings fade to pink with embarrassment just as my cheeks turn red. Some of the ponies giggle at this while other nervously blush by that inappropriate bit of information about the empress of an entire empire composed of a shit ton of universes. The two angels remain unchanged by this information, of corse they already knew that. V however rolls her eyes and shakes her head with a prankish smile on her face.

"Ignoring that...What do you wanna see first?" I say to get us back on track just as I cross my arms and partially fold up my wings. The lines fade back to their blue color. I sense that Dash is about to make a sex joke about me.

"NOT my body." I quickly add to shoot her down.

"Like how I'm a sentient black hole?" says V as she playfully shrugs her arms. Twilight swings her head towards V's avatar with stars in her eyes as a million questions form in her purple head. Yet, much to the viewer's dismay...the story ends, leaving them all to wonder would have been...Oh wait...they don't the reader exits out of the page in a huff to see the cover of the story, only to look to the right of the screen to see this.
