The Rise of the Combine Empire in Equestria. ( With some.... Unconventional allies )

**** ok, so I would like to say something Real quick before you read the story.

yes, there are a shit ton of Errors in the first few chapters, and yes. I will most likely be fixing them in the mid to long term future.

BUT as for the later chapters. things have gotten better. like after chapter 3... or maybe 4. it gets better in grammar, story lore, exc ..... I guess. :"{)

well anyway. I hope you have fun with reading my story. cheers.

The scenery around me was almost the same as any other day, the dull, bleak, and metallic grayish color that was the combine's most basic type of building material. as well the easiest to construct and obtain, ( to the combine's standers anyway. ) but with one exception added to my ordinary work day, I was in one of the two main towers of the citadel, I was doing a very important job. in which involved the leader of the combine earth forces. for anyone who does not know ( who doesn't. ) yes I am talking about Mr. Breen. but most Humans call him Dr. Breen mostly because he is not married. but still, they can't tell me what to think and not to think. mostly because they can't read Human thoughts. yes, not even mine. but to be fair, they may not be able to tell what Humans are thinking, but they are able to get rid of memories altho. and don't even get me started on the whole brainwashing thing. Anyway. My job is mostly to start the portal and keep it running. in addition to that, I am mostly alone in here, besides the 8 foot long, 5 feet tall, adviser hovering behind me. in order to keep an eye on me, other than that we were completely alone together.

the Adviser itself was almost like any other Adviser, it had a pair of extendable, mechanical grippers, or robot hands as people like to call them.

It was day 2376 or 6.509589 years of working at the citadel, the work day consisted of going to a random panel and making sure that the various devices and mechanisms are doing what they are intended to do, whether it be feeding nutrients to other stalkers, elites, soldiers, and so forth. or if it's used to monitor the automated machines that repair turrets and other things, such as vehicles and maybe headcrab canisters.

as of late however, the stalker has been noticing that a lot of combine nexus's and combine outposts have been going dark. due to Dr. freeman and the rebels. Well lucky for him he wasn't a soldier, or even an elite, no he was a stalker. a more than averagely privileged stalker who does as he is told by his masters.

he was a normal citizen before he was a stalker, as well was every single stalker before and after him. just like them, he was surgically made by the combine for simple tasks to do and in some cases, building stuff, like a Power Generator or even a nexus or as they are called by some, a Combine HQ. if need be that is.

a stalker is to the combine as an engineer is to the rebels, that means we build stuff, and most of the time we are not appreciated for it, us stalkers and the rebel engineers that is, even if we are enemies we still have the same mutual understanding for one another, that next to no one cares about us.

anyway. back to what I was doing. ah, yes I was checking to see if the Teleporter was ready for Dr.Breen to use, to escape the citadel that is. most stalkers are not allowed to use such important stuff as this, but all of the elites are busy trying to kill that freeman guy that I've have been hearing over the overwatch voice about lately.

and so here I am, stuck with keeping an eye on the control panel that I am working on, I mostly just have to make sure that the portal is, well shall we say, the portal needs to be in the right spot, or else the portal will get out of control and well, you don't want to know what happens next.

anyway, I need to get back to keeping an eye ou~............. Really...... now?............ no no, just seeing if this was a test or not.......... this is the real thing, isn't it......... Alright, I will start the singularity now then. well this is not good, I am getting word that I need to start up the portal. because that freeman guy is shooting some energy balls at the core. so I need to start the process of Teleporting Dr.Breen to, as the combine overlords call it, the safe zone.

"hmmm well, this is interesting. there is a fluctuation with the portal as if there is something changing the course for it. "

hmmm, well this is not good, it's changing course, and according to this, it's an unknown planet that is attracting the portal. "oh no no no no. this is not good, crap I NEED to fix this NOW!!."

little did the stalker know that the portal was not being affected by the unknown world, but what was being affected by the anomaly was the air around him. at least for now.

it was only convenient that his controls picked up the anomaly at all.

~ "work it harder, make it better, do it faster, makes us stronger, more than ever, hour after, our work is never over." ~

and that is what I'm thinking of when I'm hitting the buttons on this thing, it helps the time go by faster, and helps me forget that I am a walking piece of meat with a hook for a hand and legs. or in this case two hooks for hands. I was given two of them because I needed to work on this important job. one of the hooks will most likely be taken off after this is all over.

even though that a man firing balls of pure death at the core the stalker still thinks that the combine will win the day, as they always do. but hey you can't blame a guy who has his brain ( very little ) and body ( all the way baby ) augmented to serve the combine in every way he can, mentally and physically that is.

the stalker continued on hitting buttons , to an observer's point of view, completely random and semi-fast. but to the stalker, he knew exactly what he was doing. and he was doing it with pride, that was his own.

With some luck, and his mentally enhanced brain for this specific job if it were to happen.

He stabilized the portal.

But yet little did he know that it had no effect on the anomaly, at all.

Then ever thing went to shit.

The first thing that happened was that the citadel started to explode.

The second thing that happened was G-Man.

The third thing was that a portal opened below the stalker, and him falling Thru.

The fourth and last one was vortigaunts, and everything exploding.
