Okay then, before we begin, I’ll like you to take note of the following…
1) This is a semi-interactive piece of fiction, meaning your comments will most definitely be heard and implemented.
2) My Little Pony is owned by Hasbro and Lauren Faust.
3) Most names, locations or incidences are completely fictitious and are from the authors’ wild mind.
4) If you are not happy with gore or violence or death, please go to another page. I’m pretty sure there is a better story to fit you out there.
5) I love your feedback and am in search of an editor and a proofreader. (I found one.)
Without further ado, let’s head in and kick some ass!
It all started on a quiet afternoon. Twilight Sparkle was cleaning up the library after another school visit.
“Man, these foals really like to read! Wish I could say the same about keeping the books organized,” she lamented as books floated past her, slotting them neatly back into position. She was about to levitate ‘Cutie marks and how to get them’ back under ‘C’, when a knock on the door interrupted her.
“I’ll get it!” She promptly left the books on the ground for poor Spike to stow. But, when she got to the door, there was nopony there. The street was filled with the usual throngs of ponies, all gathering in little groups.
“Hm… Weird.” She was about to close the door when a glimmer caught her eye. There, sitting on the doormat, was a neatly folded letter, complete with bowstring and all. Levitating it up, she could see her name on it, but…
“No return address… Interesting.” She brought it inside and closed the door.
“Who was it?” Spike asked as he entered the room, carrying a large tome.
“Nopony. Just… This.” She showed him the letter.
“Open it!” Spike urged her, putting down the heavy book. The ribbon and paper slid open easily, revealing cursive writing and a train ticket. Twilight cleared her throat and read in clear voice.
Dear Twilight Sparkle.
Your presence is requested
at the royal launch of the
ENS Righteous,
Tomorrow, the 3rd of July.
Affixed is your train ticket.
You are not required to bring anything.
There is no dress code for such a joyous occasion as this.
I hope to see you there.
She finished and flipped the paper around a few times.
“But there’s no name.”
“Does it matter? You are going to see the launch of the USS Righteous! It the biggest aircraft carrier ever built in Equestrian history!” Spike was ecstatic.
“I see… Well, I better get ready, then.”

The Ponyville train station was packed when she got there. Ponies waited for the train, chatting madly away about the invitation. Peering into the crowd, Twilight recognized almost all of them.
There was Lyra, Colgate, Allie Way, Amethyst Star and Rarity… Although something bugged her. It was a fleeting, almost undetectable feeling that something was very wrong. She couldn’t pinpoint the problem immediately, and used her analytical mind to shove the thought away.
“Heya Rarity! You were invited too?” she shouted as she approached the white unicorn. Rarity was dressed in the most resplendent dress she had.
“Why yes, Twilight. Although I have a sneaking suspicion about something…” She looked around, before coming in close to whisper to Twilight. “Do you realize all of us here are unicorns?”
Twilight started and looked up. Sure enough, there was not a feather in sight. Nor were there any Earth ponies.
She was about to voice her concerns when a loud noise stopped her. Looking down the track, she could see the train approaching. All thoughts forgotten, she grabbed her small bag and followed the crowd to board.
***
Twilight shot up in her seat, looking around. It's was very dark inside the train car she was in. Looking out the window, the moon was high in the sky. Her head felt rather muddled... Looking around the train car, she could see her fellow unicorns were all asleep...
“Wait, we fell asleep? When...?” Twilight struggled, but couldn't remember anything.
“What is going on?” She smelt something weird in the air and felt... very light headed. She stumbled over Rarity's sleeping body, too dizzy to care. It was rude, but she couldn't help it.
Twilight stumbled around the train car, heading towards the front. Looking at the door, she dreaded the very thought of just touching it, let alone opening it. It creaked and there were shadows behind it. Scary shadows.
Gulping down her fear, her magic glow enveloped and squeezed the door knob a bit, before creeping it open, peeking out to see a car full of... Royal Guards?
Why?
She didn't understand why the Royal Guards were here. They just sat and... Wait... Were those gas masks they had on? Twilight’s tired mind struggled to comprehend, struggled to make the connection, but she was too tired.
Suddenly, one turns and spots her. She let out a quiet “Eep” before closing the door and backing away, hoping to get away...
The door behind her smashes open, a huge guard dominating the enclosed space. Twilight shielded her poor eyes from the sudden burst of light. Almost too fast, he raises a hoof, and slams it down, hitting her square on the forehead sending the idea that this was not some deluded dream. Twilight fell backwards, her consciousness slipping from her as the entire world went dark.
The last thing she saw and heard before she fell into the void was the creepy glowing green eyes and the maniacal laugh the guard possessed.
