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

the stalker fell to the ground with a thud. he fell over and hit his head on a ( not too sharp ) rock, forcing him to black out.

the adviser looked to where the stalker was just a second ago, noticing that the stalker was gone and a hole was now in his place, the adviser quickly investigated. looking through the portal the adviser saw the stalker on the ground and unconscious, thanks to the implant in the stalkers head that allows a stalker ( and everyone else who has one ) to tell the difference between an adviser, a soldier or anything else, even rank. the adviser was quickly able to tell that the stalker was unconscious, and bleeding a little from the head. the adviser acted as fast as it could. and went through the small portal, just big enough for the adviser to fly through without a problem.

the portal closed 3 seconds later.

the adviser was hovering above the stalker.

it was not too hard, even though they were in a very dense forest.

the adviser could do nothing but protect the stalker from rebels or anything else at all cost, as this stalker was of high value to the combine, even if it was just a stalker.

42 minutes later.

the stalker was starting to come back to reality, which was good for the adviser. as it was getting bored with nothing happening, besides a squirrel passing by, that was about 12 minutes ago.

the stalker started to steer.

the stalker then opened his eyes slowly

"What the hell happened?." he thought.

the stalker looked for the adviser that he could seance.

he found it.

the stalker then got up from his position on the ground.

the stalker then sent a mental message to the adviser. the message said.

" we need immediate assistance, any local autonomous units to provide medical and defense assistance."

the adviser sent the stalker one message saying.

'negative.'

the stalker then said back to the adviser.

" and why not? "

" there are none. I can't detect any. "

" Any what, protection teams?. "

" Anything at all, nothing. We are completely alone out here......... well, not completely. "

" what do you mean by that?...... wait. "

he felt something coming from a cave. the feeling was like the connection of a nexus to a stalker, or a stalker to a nexus but it felt different. and a little too weak for a nexus, or even another stalker, as well nexuses are not built underground. at least not to his knowledge.

" Do you mean that? "

" Yes, that is the only connection I have felt in the last 44 minutes, besides yours, and it's not even responding at all to my messages or even the mandatory sector assimilation. "

" Very odd. "

" Indeed. "

" shud we investigate and see what type of autonomous unit it is. "

" Yes, "

they then proceeded to walk and fly to the cave.

they arrived at the mouth of the cave, it was dark inside, and the connection was a bit stronger now.

" .......... "

" .....hmmm, as it seems the entrance of the cave is too small for you. "

" yes. "

" then I shall investigate, "

" and I will keep guard. "

the stalker then walked into the cave.

the cave itself was like any ordinary cave, a few stalag tights hear, and a couple of stalag might's there. but the deeper the stalker went the more it became clear that this was no normal cave. For example, the cave walls, floor, and ceiling were all covered in an unknown exogen like covering.

(exogen, the word means. Ant Lions, which are a bug-like species from half-life 2 )

it was a good 7 inches thick.

" hmmm, nothing yet. "

the stalker continued to walk through the cave, deeper and deeper he went. as the connection was getting stronger and stronger.

he continued through the cave until he finally reached the end and found.

"A door..... just a door."

" A door, that means civilization, hopefully not the rebels."

the door was not made of wood stone or iron, but instead, it was made out of pure Titanium.

the stalker then walked up to the door. the stalker then tried to open the door, but it just made a creaking sound,

the stalker pushed harder and sure enough, it opened.

what the stalker saw inside was a pony bug looking thing, it was lying on what looked to be a Make shift throne of stone or some other material, SHE looked like she has black chitin like skin and a blue colored torso and a green over-shell of some kind. and a blueish hair color...or well mane color that is, and what look like some sort of a crown or maybe antenna on her head, and a long and crooked horn. She also had holes in her leg's, anyway, she was not looking too good, she was bleeding a little from a small puncture wound on her side. ( the blood was green. )

what punctured her side like that the stalker does not know.

"well shit, I might as well help her, from what I can tell from that connection she seems to be giving off, she is an ally, and a higher ranking one at that. "

the stalker thinks.

the stalker then began to move towards her. she only looks at the stalker. and then she closes her eyes.

"I think that she thinks I'm here to kill her or put her out of her misery most likely. well, not today. because even if she wanted to die right here and now, I must prevent that from happening, not just because she is a girl, but because she is a higher ranking one, my boss's will have my nonexistent ass if she dies, if they are alive that is."

the stalker though.

the stalker came up to her and picked her up.

From what the stalker could tell she was not expecting that at all. ( She was not. ) her eyes seem to grow a bit, as if surprised that I was picking her up, well she should know that it is standard protocol that if there is no combine assistance in a 2-mile radius. the available units that are at the location of the incident 'in this case, haveing an injury.' will need to move the high valued individual to a more secure location. ok well, I need a plan, so I will have to find some scrap metal. and then build a "Power Generator" or two, then a few "Scrap Power Generators" I will then build a good 4 or 5 "Energy Cells" so I can save power. after that, I will build what I need for her at the moment, which is a "Regeneration Post."

But first. I need to get her back to the adviser.
