"I can say without a doubt that there are an infinite number of universes. Some are just like our own... but for one or two significant events, exactly the same."
-Lex Luthor
Have you seen this world? Equestria is beautiful isn't it? The sun rising as she bathes the land with light; cracking open from the mountain peaks. And the moon in all its glory and majesty, illuminating the land as well but with a dark glow. The stars shining above the blanket of darkness also illuminating the sky. The green grass with the fresh fragrance of the air going through your nose. It's a peaceful land, so peaceful, so...innocent. But there are other lands, or should I say worlds, that are not so innocent. Well, one place. The place of fire and torture. Tartarus. A forsaken and forgotten place unknown by anyone. What you don't know is that there was once a time when Equestria had only one ruler. The mother-mare herself in all her glory. Oh how she fell along with him. He is coming. For what? Well, it's true, the real story. Soon everypony will know who he is. Now don't interrupt or go away or you'll see what he can do with your soul. He didn't come here to tease you. He didn't come here to hear you cry. He came here for revenge. And you're number one on his list, moya koroleva.
Somewhere in the dark depths of Tartarus is a large structure. The huge building stood proud and tall against a mountain as it spewed out colors of smoke from its chimneys. It was a factory. Sounds could be heard from the inside of the cursed factory, horrible sounds, unholy sounds of machinery. But what was inside the factory was absolutely out of this world. Inside were great-big machines with beautiful colors in them. One machine mixed the colors while others smashed, froze, or heated the colors. And who were working the machines? Ponies. But no ordinary ponies, no, ponies of insanity. Some of the cursed creatures had a crazy mane, others had black circles around their eyes, while others had unsettling smiles on them. They worked the horrid machines in making those colors, rainbows. But while the ponies worked hard on the machines, one pony walked all over the factory. This pony was looking to see if everypony was doing their job. She walked up to the highest part of the factory where she could see everypony from where she stood. While she stared at the hard workers another pony came walking towards her.
"Pinkamena. There you are! I've been looking everywhere for you."
The pony turned to hear her name and smiled at her best friend. Rainbow Factory Dash. The rainbow-maned pony had a black-metal suit that was easy to maneuver in and metal wings with weapons ready to strike. Pinkamena, on the other hoof, had a warrior-like suit and her fur was a pale pink and the same went for her straight violet mane.
"Hey, RFD. I haven't seen you all day! Is there something wrong?"
Her friend nodded, "No, nothing bad at all. Just that Creepy Derpy accidentally clogged up the rainbow room. I don't know how that's even possible."
The pale-pink pony laughed, "So what have you been up to?"
"Nothing much, just working on improving my weapons and fighting. Oh, also I visited Little Miss Rarity and she is making me a new suit! It's gonna be awesome!"
"That's great, Dashie!"
Suddenly, a sound interrupted them both from their conversation. Pinkamena chuckled, "Sorry, my stomach is just asking for food! Want to get something to eat?"
"Sure," Rainbow said, "Let me guess. You want cupcakes?"
The pink pony scoffed with a smile on her face, "Now why do you say that? What? Am I not allowed to like other foods?"
"No, it's alright to eat other things. It's just that cupcakes are your specialty."
Pinkamena punched her friend on the shoulder playfully and laughed.
"Whatever, Dashie."
The two best friends walked away from the roaring machines to go on their lunch break. Even though the place was filled with darkness and hatred, they were all friends. Family even. Pinkamena and her cyborg friend walked inside a room that said the words "kafeteriy" on it. The pale-pink pony opened the door to the room with a keycard she had and the two mares walked inside and saw the mare who cooked the excellent food. Rotten Applejack. Despite her name, she was actually a really good cook. She could cook you out of a house and home. Even though she was a great cook, she had a drinking problem.
The orange cowmare turned to her two friends as she drank a bottle of cider. "Howdy! Pinkamena. RFD. What brings ya here?"
"We're just here for our lunch break, AJ," Rainbow said as her cowmare friend handed them two apple pies.
"Here ya go. Two freshly baked apple pies! I made em' this mornin'. I also added something special in it to enhance the taste."
Pinkamena tried the pie and closed her eyes to feel the sugary goodness on her tongue.
"This is amazing! Now I want to have apples for the rest of my life, hehe." The pink mare said eating more of her friend's pie.
The cyborg pony then ate a piece of her pie and licked her lips, "She's right. It's really good!"
The orange pony chuckled as she drank more cider from her bottle, "So, you like apples, dontcha?"
RFD sighed and put her hoof on her head, "Not this again."
Pinkamena chuckled, "Are you going to tell the story again for the 1000th time?"
The pale-orange mare scoffed, "I'm telling y'all! If y'all not good apples then you're a bad apple! And y'all know what happens ta bad apples. I-"
"Take them to your orchard and bury them their," Rainbow said with unamusement in her voice. "We've heard the story many MANY times already! Is it really necessary to tell it again?"
Rotten Applejack rolled her eyes, "Yes. Yes it is. It's my way of telling fillies to obey the bosses' orders. Who knows what he could do next."
Pinkamena agreed, "Speaking of which, has anypony heard of Hybrid for the past week? Because I haven't."
The two nodded.
"Maybe he's doing some important work like calculating or something else."
The three mates turned around to see another friend of theirs. Experimental Twilight Sparkle. She was the smartest of them all, she being the designer for the Pegasus Device. Everypony was surprised that she wasn't the second-in-command instead of Pinkamena. Metaphorically speaking. The intelligent pony continued, "Shouldn't all of you be working?"
"Technically, AJ is still working. And we're on our lunch break. I thought you were overlooking the weapon room with Forever Faithful Twilight?"
"I already did. It didn't take long, so I decided to go on a break too. Besides, Murdershy's got the weapons. I'm sure she can handle it. Also I couldn't help over hearing about Hybrid. Yeah, I haven't seen him either. No pony's heard from him for about a week."
Suddenly, the intercom that surrounded the factory was heard saying, "Hello, Pinkamena, Rainbow Factory Dash, Rotten Applejack, Experimental Twilight, Murdershy, Lil Miss Rarity, Candy, I need you all to come pay me a visit. Now."
AJ chuckled as she took a sip of her cider, "That's the boss."
The four ponies left the cafeteria to see their king. They didn't know why he had called them but all they knew was it seemed important. Pinkamena walked through the hallways of the factory and found a little filly around the corner. She seemed nervous and didn't want to move.
"Candy? What's wrong?"
The little filly turned and faced the second-in-command. The little pony and a coat made out of sugar and her ears were waffle cones; her legs had colors of candy as well. She was completely made of candy!
"Oh, hi, Pinkamena. I'm just scared. I'm scared of upsetting Mister Hybrid."
Pinkamena chuckled, "Don't worry, Candy. You won't upset anypony. Besides, I'm here. Okay?"
The candy filly smiled, "Okay."
The candy mare followed Pinkamena into the throne room where their king awaited them. Two guards stood in front of the huge door to Hybrid's throne room and opened it for the Ponies of Genocide. Pinkamena and her friends walked inside the giant palace room and saw the throne chair facing away from them. But bowing down before the throne was Murdershy and Lil Miss Rarity and the rest of the ponies did the same. When they had finished paying their respects to their king he spoke.
"Do you know who I am? Who I was? And what I can do? Well..."
Suddenly, a disco ball appeared on the ceiling and confetti started flying everywhere; the floor opened up and robotic versions of Pinakmena and her friends appeared singing:
"King Hybrid! King Hybrid!
The amazing creator!
King Hybrid! King Hybrid!
Everypony give a cheer!
Hooray!
He's modest, clever, and so smart!
He barely can restrain it!
With so much immorality! There is nothing to contain him!
To contain him!
To contain, to contain, to contain!"
The Ponies of Genocide looked at each other with absolute confusion as to what was happening. But again the robotic pony gang sang:
"King Hybrid! King Hybrid!
He's the one that you're about to meet!
King Hybrid! King Hybrid!
He's the genius who just can't be beat!
The magician and the chaos whiz!
The best darn guy who ever lived!
King Hybrid, here he is!"
The throne then turned to reveal the king laughing with a huge grin on his face. Hybrid was a tall dog, or fright hound, with red pupils and white glowing around. He also had white sharp teeth, pointy ears, and black fur as dark as night. He was clapping and jumped down towards the ponies who still had looks of confusion.
"So? What do you think? I believe my new robotic buddies are singing the right song! I call them Fazpie and the Mane-iacal Six! I'm still working on the name but I did make them this morning and they turned out great!"
Rainbow put her hoof on her face and sighed, "Is this why you brought us here?"
The fright hound laughed and put his finger on her muzzle, "On the contrary, dear Skittles. I invited you all here for something very important."
Rainbow turned to Pinkamena and whispered, "What are skittles?"
The pink pony shrugged as Hybrid walked in front of them and laughed.
"Finally! After so many years the time has come! Hahahaha!"
Miss Rarity raised an eyebrow, "What are you talking about? What are you so excited about?"
The fright hound smiled at the little pony, "Because today is the day where everything changes! After thousands of years preparing we will finally be able to go to the surface!"
"What?!" They all shouted in unison.
"So we can go and see Equestria?" Asked Murdershy with her dark circled eyes looking at her master.
"Yes. No. Let me explain. You are the only ones who are able to go to the surface, because You have more power than the others, but I cannot, sadly go. I was cursed to suffer here by...nevermind. There is only one way you can free me and the others though. There is a book, an ancient book written by a wise being, that has all sorts of spells and magic; one of them being a spell to free the damned. Point is that I have chosen the seven of you to go to Equestria and find that book. Not only that, I give you the permission to have fun and make the surface-dwellers pay! I think it be rude if you didn't cause any madness. Chaos. Genocide."
Rainbow jumped for joy, "All right! Genocide! That sounds awesome! I'll finally be able to use my special weapons for genocide!"
"That is why I am dubbing the seven of you the Elements of Genocide! I think it's better than Fazpie and the Mane-iacs don't you think?"
"Hey!" The animatronic Pinkie Pie said but Hybrid ignored her. Rotten then asked her boss a rather very interesting question.
"Look Hybrid. I know this is good news and all, but how in the hay are we supposed ta go up ta the surface? It's not like we can break through the barrier or anything."
"But you don't know that I've been planning this before I was even cursed. Haha! Follow me, we mustn't dilly or dally!"
The fright hound then snapped his fingers causing them to teleport to an unknown room. The seven were dumbfounded at the amazing structure before them. It was a giant machine with huge wires connecting it from all around, lights flickering all over, and a huge circle in the middle. It was a transporter.
"Do you like it? It's a special machine of mine that I created with just the blink of my eye so that you seven can go and break through the barrier! I'm very proud of it myself."
"When did you have time to make this? And how powerful can you be in order to make a device such as this and to be able to plan this before you even created us?"
Hybrid chuckled, "Listen, if I ever show you my true power it means that one of us will not survive. So don't ask questions you don't want the answer to."
The half mechanical pony nodded, a little shaken by Hybrid's remark.
"But anyways, I know you seven will make me proud. Now, let's begin!"
The seven walked into the main p,at form of the machine and love ones at Hybrid one last time before they left to the surface.
"And remember: I'll be watching you!!!!!"
The machine started thundering with roaring sounds and a bright light some as bright as the sun herself. The seven ponies then disappeared and the machine shut down and toppled to the ground in pieces. Hybrid snapped his fingers and created an hourglass and teleported to his throne and sat down; he turned the hourglass and set it down on the right side of his throne where he could watch it.
"Its only a matter of of time until she returns as well. And I'll be ready for it. It's time Equestria knew the truth about its history. It's time. It's time."
