While on a mission; two mercenaries, Sparx and Captain, are abducted by a threat not of this world.

"This is my final message. Who ever finds this tape, you've got to send help up here. They've been keeping us in cells, but I managed to escape! I think I know what they want with out world, and they wont stop until they took hundreds or even thousands of us! I've got to keep moving. Good luck to all of us. And Celestia's speed."

Sparx and Captain are two mercenaries looking for work in the Equestria Wastland. When they finally get a job they are abducted by a threat that is not of this world. Now, Sparx must save his friend and rescue the other prisoners to stop the aliens from taking over the entire planet.

(This is a spinoff side story of Fallout Equestria. Unlike most of the sidefics; Beyond The Stars is more of a comedy then a grimdark story. The story is also a parody of the DLC to Fallout 3: Mothership Zeta. Many Sci-Fi movie references are in this Fanfic, so feel free to spot them out, there not that well hidden.)

Chapter 1: First Contact

Beyond The Stars Chapter 1

“First Contact”

“Hello friends. Have you ever gazed upon the night sky and pondered about the possibility of life on other planets? What marvelous beings might exist out there, hoofs extended in friendship awaiting the moment when we ponies take our first tentative steps into space? What tales will be told of that glorious day, when we are contacted by our friends from beyond the stars!”

Agent T: Did you see what I saw?

Agent M: You bet your sweet flank I did… What did you see?

Agent T: Little green pony in a flying saucer wiping out the best pegasus unit in the Equestrian army.

Agent M: Right good me too…  Green? Not gray?

Agent T: Don’t be a stiff. You know what it means?

Agent M: Absolutely… What?

Agent T: It means the papers got it right for once. Radio the *sounds of static*

The scene switched to a group of wastelander at a bar listening to a radio

Wastelander 1: C’mon Joe! Fix it!

Donut Joe: Alright, alright I’m working on it. *Starts banging on the radio and shaking the antenna* *The signal becomes clear*

DJ Pon3: Wasn’t that great children! Stay tuned for the next exciting episode of, The Mares in Black. And now back to some music.

Wastelander 2: Great! Now we have to wait another two days before she plays the next one.

Wastelander 1: That’s the last one. The Bombscame down before the next one was broadcasted.

Donut Joe: Now I wouldn’t say that. You know I was there when it was originally broadcasted. Back when I still had my good donut shop.

Drunken Wastelander: Donuts!? I thought I was eating a tire!

Donut Joe: Sir, I think you had enough today.

Drunken Wastelander: Enough? But I’m barely drunk and it’s only like, *looks at and old busted watch on his right hoof* well. I can’t tell time but the sun is still up that means! *the pony falls off his chair and passes out on the ground*

Donut Joe: Like I was saying. They made the recordings of each episode after it's aired. But the place they kept them got raided some time ago.

Wastelander 2: Who took them?

Donut Joe: That’s the strange part. No one in the Equestria Wasteland knows.

Meanwhile Two Colts are playing cards. Two more are watching, both are wearing raider gear with sports helmets on their heads. One Colt playing cards wears similar armor, but the other is a white Pegasus that wears basic blue mercenary armor with blue goggles around his neck

Lt. Sparx: Looks like I won again. Hoof bump... You’re just going to leave me hanging?

Raider Leader: Oi! We want a rematch!

Raider Grunt 1: Yeah! A Rematch!

Raider Grunt 2: Yeah!

Lt. Sparx: Oh yeah? Well I want a pretty pink birthday cake with my face on it, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.

Raider Leader: *Pulls knife out* I said, we wanted a rematch. Mate!

Lt. Sparx: Fine. But you’re going to be like that I’m winning that knife of yours. You mark my words.

At the same time; two Colts, one a brown unicorn tan colored unicorn with no mane and the other black colored earth pony with night vision goggles on with a sniper rifle on his back, are at the bar drinking sider

Sniper: And I fucking shit you not, first day on the job and BOOM! There goes Skittle’s fucking head all over the fucking place.

Captain: No.

Sniper: Yeah! You fucking believe that shit. And you know sniper *smokes a cigarette * There just a bunch of sick little fucks. Sure he can put one it your fucking heart but hey. But taking your dick off puts fear… In the enemy. It’s all about the mind games man. Fucking little fucks.

Scene switches back to the card game

Lt. Sparx: Looks like I win again, surprise surprise.

Raider Leader: Ah we want a rematch!

Raider Grunt 1: Yeah rematch!

Lt. Sparx: Yeah right posers. Oh and for the record. Plastic sports gear isn’t real armor.

Raider Leader: Hahahaha! You’re just jealous we have spikes in style and you don’t

Lt. Sparx: *Takes out a pistol and shoots one of the raiders in the chest* Hahahaha! Look who’s jealous of everybody who doesn’t have a bullet in their liver!

Scene switches to the bar with the sniper and captain.

Sniper: *crying* and the worst part of it was. He was going to be a dad- AAAHHH!!! *falls to the ground revealing the knife the raider leader owned*

Lt. Sparx: *Runs towards Captain* Oh hey there cap.

Captain: I didn’t get to hear the end of his story!

Lt. Sparx: Oh. Uh. Sorry about that. Look Captain, we have to make like a tree and get the hell out of here.

Captain: Damn it lieutenant you know I’m a sucker for movie references. Alright let’s go.

Lt. Sparx: *grabs the knife that was thrown at the sniper and follows Captain*

Raider Leader: Hey! Give me back my knife!

Sparx and Captain run towards a ruined abandoned town. Still being followed by the raiders.

Captain: Well Lieutenant, now where?

Lt. Sparx. Um.

Captain: Left or right. Or forward. Or we go down and live with the mutated mole rats!

Lt. Sparx: Looks! There’s a warehouse up ahead!  We can hide there.

Captain: Fine. But if this fails my mole rat idea is next.

The two run up the road and enter the warehouse. The raiders spot them entering and follow.

Raider Leader: What are you waiting for? Open the door!

Raider Grunt: But there might be germs or something if I touch the door.

Raider Leader: *looks at the grunt then turns around and kicks the door open and grabs his machete with his mouth and enters* C’mon out! What’s the matter? Scared of your own blood?

As the raiders enter. Sparx is hiding in the shadows with the knife he stole; ready to ambush the two raiders.

Lt. Sparx: *whispering* Target for the head… No I don’t want to aim for the dicks… I don’t care what that sniper said.

Captain: *hiding in the next room levitating his pistol* who you talking to Lieutenant?

Raider Leader: I heard voices that way go check it out… I thought I told you to- *turns around and sees his teammate dead on the floor with a knife stuck right between his eyes. Turns around and sees Captain aiming his pistol in front of him*

Captain: Great. You turned around to quick. Turn back around so I can think of a sarcastic.

Raider Leader: You damn wank- *gets tackled by a shadowy figure*

Captain: Good one Lieutenant. Now hold him still so I can think.

Lt. Sparx: Hey Cap. Right behind you.

The two look at the raiders body and reveals the shadowy figure to be a feral ghoul. The ghoul then turns and looks at the two mercs.

Captain: Hey Lieutenant look. A “ZomPony”! Get it? Because it’s a zombie AND pony?! Ha-ha! *his eyes widened* Wait. ZOMBIE!

The two then run out the door and into the wasteland. As the two run away in terror, they look for shelter to keep them safe from the dangers they just survived.

It is now the evening. The Mercs have made camp to rest for the night.

Captain: Who the hell were those guys anyway? Also. Who the hell were you talking to back there?

Lt. Sparx: First off; they were a small band of raiders we were hired to kill remember. I played them in a game of caravan but turns out they sucked and tried to kill me. I got a knife out of hit though… No wait it’s in that guy’s skull. Second; I was talking to my AI.

Captain: A what?

Lt. Sparx: My AI. *lifts up his left hoof that has a Pip-Buck 3000 attached.* This Pip-Buck was given to me by my father, who got it from his father who got it from his father who killed somepony and raided his carcass. But this model comes with an experimental AI that helps the user.

Captain: And it talks to you. You need help son.

Legion: If I recall. *a blue hologram of a female earth pony appears above the Pip-Buck screen* You were the one who didn’t shoot the leader. But instead, tried to come up with a quote on quote “Something Sarcastic”.

Captain: Totally worth it. If had time to finish that raider would be like “Damn! This guy sure knows stuff!”

Legion: Right. Logging off.

Captain: She does have a sexy look to her. Like that one unicorn we passed by. That gray one with the Pip-Buck

Lt. Sparx: You mean that Stable Dweller.

Captain: Who?

Lt. Sparx: The unicorn you were undressing with your mind through a scope of a spider rifle. Over 5 months ago. I heard her name is Little Pip

Captain: Mmmm. Little Pip.

Lt. Sparx: Dude stop that. That’s just nasty Look, it’s getting late Cap. Get some rest so we can get our payment.

Captain: Great. You’re doing the third-person thing too.

The two rest as the campfire dies down.

TIME: 2:00 AM

Legion: Alert. Unknown signal found.

Lt. Sparx: What?

Legion: I have detected a radio signal of unknown origin.

Lt. Sparx: Well what’s it say?

Legion: Scanning… I can’t make it out. It is in a foreign language.

Lt. Sparx: Not my problem then. Log off Legion.

Legion: Logging off.

Captain: Will you two shut up! I’m dreaming of that Little Pip.

TIME: 2:16 AM

A light as bright as the sun shines over the Mercs.

Captain: Ugh. Lieutenant, shoot the sun. Make it dark again.

Lt. Sparx: I told you. *yawns* It doesn’t work like that. Besides it only- *looks at the clock on the Pip-Buck. Seeing its only 2:16 AM* Cap! Wake up! I don’t think that’s sunlight!

Captain: Damn it Lieutenant. One more movie reference-*looks up* and… I’ll... By Celestia’s beard what is that!

Lt. Sparx: First off! Celestia didn’t have a beard you twit. And second. I have no bloody clue! Run!

The two run as fast as they can but get stuck in their tracks, as if something was pulling them up. The Mercs then slowly float towards the light. Being blinded and scared of what might happen to them and who, or even, has found them.
