"Detecting no power in the conduits of this structure." The speaker said. I looked towards the old, broken down and destroyed corridor that I entered. I breathed hard into my mask and continued down the corridor, flashing my light left and right, onto the walls, floor and roof.
"Looks like precursor tech." I said. "You sure they're here?" I asked into my microphone
"Data shows that this was where they were placed into sleeping" APS Replied.
"Well, you better be right, its been years I've searched for them." I replied. as I walked I looked towards the walls, scratch marks were all over them, lights shattered as the broken shards of plastic and glass flew around the hallway. "Whats our power at?" I asked
"52% Power, 50% Oxygen in tank." APS Replied.
"Keep the Cortana docked, I don't want to be stuck here with whatever is in this place." I pulled out a small device and took some photos of the walls.
"WARNING, MOVEMENT DETECTED" APS Shouted into my ears.
"Calm down!" I said, pulling out my small blaster, turning on the flashlight. I shined the light at the senselessly endless corridors
"Hello! And welcome to Equestria Galaxy Daily! Im your host, Golden Evening!" he pushed a small button and a applause came from the speakers. "On today's news, Planet Bubblegum is fully open!, Mallow Sprunkles is down at the planet now."
"Thank you Golden, as the new city opens on this historical planet, Ponies and Humans cheer as Princeless Luna and Princess Celestia come down from the ARK to say hello! We will be back shortly after these messages!"
"Give me a scan, APS." I said, looking around my surroundings with my light.
"Scan failed, these walls seem to deflect the scanning software." APS Replied.
"Dammit. Its a maze." I said. looking towards my front. "Oh." I replied.
"Welcome back to Equestria Galaxy Daily!" Mallow said "We are here live with the speech from Princess Celestia!" The camera pointed towards the stage, as Princess Celestia came trotting out.
"Humans, Ponies and other races of the galaxy. I am glad to be with you all on this historical planet. Today this large city will be open to the entire galaxy!" The crowd cheered. "Thank you, im fl-" A large bang can be heard, as all the galaxy's animals scream and run off. The camera shoots off.
"I can't wait to go to this new planet!" Jimmy said.
"Calm down, son" His dad replied.
"Yeah, its going to be awesome!" Hayley said.
"Hey! I heard there's going to be a shooting range for small cadets like me!" Jimmy replied
"Son, no-" The entire family looked towards the planet, the crust turning red as the ground split into halves as red tentacles split out from the planet, grasping into space.
I looked towards the small cryo chambers. "How do we get them open?" I asked.
"If you give me a second, I can hack into the sy-" Aps tried to say as I smashed the hilt of my rifle into the hardened glass, it shattered with ease, as two suited animals fell out from it.
"Its them, Bring the LAV over, lets get them to the Avenger." I replied.
4 Hours After
I strayed across my room, waiting for a response. "Sir, the procedure was complete on both of them. They should be up in a bit." The soldier said, opening from my door.
"Good, go check on the new reactor on the 4th floor." I replied.
"SIR YES SIR." He replied, walking out of my room.
"Thats two down, now we just need to find Jay." I said. "APS, Contact the scientist, see if everything is alright on Planet Bubblegum." The TV flickered on.
"BREAKING NEWS! Planet Bubblegum has been attacked! Celestia is now nowhere to be seen and the planet has split in half!"
"Oh no." I said, smashing open my door and running down the stairs. "GET MY SHIP READY!" I called out to the engineers on the hangar bay.
"WHICH ONE?" They called out.
"THE APHELION!"
"SIR YES SIR!" They replied, I continued to run downstairs towards the GEO Room. I stormed in, looking towards the galaxy map.
"Alright people, as you might of heard. Planet Bubblegum was destroyed in a small amount of time, Joe, get me a map of the planet's surface, John, check if the planet has atmosphere still. Hannah, tell me any more details we need, i'm heading down there to get our scientist. By my guesses the planet will be fighting against the attackers. Someone also find me who the hell these attackers are!" I shouted, running towards the hangar.
2 HOURS AFTER.
I looked towards my crashed ship, parts of it sticking out from the sides, I smirked as I saw the engines still running, lifting the dirt in front of
it. "KEEP FIRING!" I shouted, blasting away the Cyborkrats. One of their tanks rolled into the streets and we scattered. My suit was covered in muck, dented as paint was chipped off. Our own tank rolled down the side of a building, firing at the enemy, their tank exploding, sending shrapnel into the walls, smashing some windows. One of the hover helicopters brung in reinforcements, sending their forces back into the buildings, the helicopter picked up the Aphelion, taking it for repairs, it also picked up some of the damaged troops. I grabbed onto one of the sides and took a short ride to our base.
