TitanFall: Equilibrium
Questions and Answers
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI stared out a window that leads out to the towns square. I saw ponies walking around, trying to fix the damage after the recent attack. I also saw my titan helping with the damage as much as possible. Right now I was sitting inside a bakery waiting for the pony, Twilight, to retrieve her friends. I started tapping a random pattern on my helmet I had rested on the table in front of me.
After I killed the IMC pilot, the whole town started cheering. They started yelling on how I was a hero and how I saved them. It surprised me on how calm they were. I literally just turned a person into ground beef in front of them. I hopped out of my titan and the purple one said that she wanted to talk to me in private and ask me some questions with her friends. She took me here to wait for them. That was two hours ago.
I kept staring out the window until I saw the purple pony again and with five other ponies. I looked away from the window as I heard them entering the building. I looked at the door and saw all of the ponies walk in with a smile on their face. I smiled as well and got comfortable in my seat, resting my feet on top of the table while putting my hands behind my head.
“Alright, let’s get started”
-------------------------------------}{}{}{}{}{-----------------------------------------------
I sat in a my chair, drinking some coffee while I saw the purple pony rubbing her temples. I took a sip as I heard her groan and place her head on the table.
“So let me get this straight. You are a alien species called humans who have started expanding your colonies to other worlds. You were onboard a scout ship and while scouting a new area, you were attacked by the “IMC” and was forced to retreat. You landed on this planet and was torn away from the rest of your crew. Now you aim to find them and leave this planet with one of the ships you have landed. Correct?” She finished while looking up at me. I nodded and took another sip.
I only told her about what was happening at the moment. I didn’t need to tell her about me our anything else. I looked down at the mug and noticed it was empty. I looked over at the pink one and raised my mug to her. She smiled and walked over to me. She grabbed my cup and headed back to make some more. From what Twilight told me, her name is Pinkie Pie and she was one of the Elements of harmony. The element of Laughter
“Wait, how do we know you are telling the truth. You could be the one who attacked the other ship!” the blue one said while standing up on her seat. I rolled my eyes. Rainbow Dash, the Element of Loyalty. More like the element of accusation.
“Use your head Rainbow. If I was the bad guy, then I would have killed you. Plus I wasn't the one destroying the town, now was I?” I said while inching my face closer to hers. We both stared at each other, nose to nose.
“Here’s your coffee Ms. Forman.” I heard pinkie said while placing the cup of coffee next to me. I looked over at her and smiled. I leaned back and grabbed my coffee, taking a slow sip.
“Plus if I was the bad guy, then I wouldn’t have saved Fluttershy” I said while motioning my cup to her. As soon as I said her name, she tried to hide behind her mane. I looked over at Rainbow Dash and saw her nodding slowly. Fluttershy was another Elements of Harmony. Apparently she was kindness. I’m not even sure what the hell that even means.
“She’s telling the truth Rainbow. I can tell.” Applejack said while biting a piece of caramel apple. Applejack was the Element of Honesty. I think that somehow gave her the ability to know if you are lying. Frankly, I think there are people who have other ways of doing that and she doesn’t have my respect. I took a sip of my coffee and placed it back on the table.
“Enough about that. I think it is my turn for questions.” I said while looking at all the ponies.
“I guess it’s fair” Rarity said while looking at her friends. She was the Element of Generosity and I did not like her. She looked too lady like for my taste. She probably would throw up just from touching something dirty. I pulled my seat closer and got in my interrogation mode.
“I want to make this quick and simple and I want good explanations” I said while looking at each on of them in the circle of chairs we were in. They all nodded. “What planet is this, what is your technology level, and are you the only species on this planet.” I asked quickly. Twilight was the one to speak up.
“The planet you are on is names Equis. I’m not sure about our technology level is, but we did just come out with the steam boat. But we are not the only species on this planet. Us ponies have different parts about us like wings or horns or just nothing. There are many other animal species like dragons, gryphons, and many others.” she said happily. I nodded. I was a bit surprised to see that they were unicorns and Pegasus, but I got over my shock quickly. “I know you have questions, but is it fine if I ask you some more personal ones?” she said with a smile on her face.
I groaned. This is the thing I did not want to discuss. I was ready to say no, but then she pulled out one of my biggest weaknesses. The one thing that I could never face. The one thing I could never say no to. She gave me the biggest puppy dog eyes I have ever seen. I tried to look away, but the power of her eyes was not allowing me to. I groaned and sighed loudly. “Fine” I whimpered. She clapped her hoofs happily.
Out of nowhere she popped out a notebook and a quill and started writing things. I stared at the two items warily. How the fuck? “Specimen name, Alex Forman. Species, Human. Sex, Female. Brown hair with hazel eyes and white skin. Height, five feet and twelve inches.” she said while her quill wrote everything she said. I stared at the quill, feeling a bit dizzy.
“Alright miss Forman, can you please explain who you are and what role you serve in the “Militia”.” she asked while smiling at me. I sighed and thought to just get this over with.
“I am a 27 year old Pilot in the Militia that fights for freedom against the IMC in the Frontier. I am captain ranked veteran and has been on 50 missions for either recon or ground battles.” I explained. She nodded and wrote down everything I said.
“What exactly is a pilot?” she asked. I tapped my helmet and answered.
“Pilots are a special form of soldier who are viewed as war heroes. We have stronger muscles, faster reflexes, and more equipment than that of a regular foot soldier. We also have special gear that allows up to climb walls, run across walls, and jump high distances.” Twilight was furiously writing down everything I said. ”The biggest thing that separates us from the regular soldiers is our bond with titans.” Twilight stopped writing and looked up at me.
“What is a Titan?” she asked. I looked out the window and pointed at my titan. The ponies looked out the window and saw what I was pointing at. Their eyes widened. Right now, we were all staring at my titan sitting down while little ponies were crawling all over it. I saw little ponies hanging on her arm or trying to climb to the top of her. I chuckled at the sight.
“That’s a Titan!” Rarity exclaimed. I nodded.
“That is so awesome!” I heard Rainbow whisper. I continued with my explanation.
“A titan is a mechanical machine that we have built for many purposes. Originally they were built for labor or farming. When the war came, they were manufactured as war machines. They are feared and respected on the battlefield” I said while watching a small pony celebrating for getting on top of my titans head.
“Oh, well how are you assigned a titan? How long have you had yours?” She asked while taking her eyes of the scene outside.
“I’ve had my titan for about five years. You are only allowed a titan if you are certified to be a pilot. I showed potential for being a good shot and I was trained to be one. She was my first titan.” I said happily, thinking of all the time I had spent with her.
“What is her name?” she asked while looking outside again.
“Her real name is NX-2128, but I call her Nix.” I smiled.
“Why did you join the militia specifically?” she asked while looking back at me. I jerked my head at her, frowning.
“That is none of your business!” I snapped. She was shocked at my change of tone.
“Why no-”
“IT”S NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUISNESS!” I yelled, cutting her off. They all sank back in their seat in fear. I scowled at her. I’m never telling her or anyone else my reasons. I promised no one would know. That no one would hurt her.
I sank back in my chair, finally cooling off. I then heard someone enter the building. I looked at the door and so did everyone else. My eyes widened as I saw a small purple and green lizard run in here with something in his claw. It stopped and looked at me, obviously surprised. We both stared at each other unmoving. He broke out of the stare first and walked over to twilight. It handed the thing to Twilight and stood there next to her.
I stared at the lizard closely, hand close to my gun. I then heard twilight gasp. I looked over at her and saw her reading the thing the lizard have to her.
“It’s the Princess. She wants to see Alex.” she said worriedly. They all stared at me and I raised a brow.
“Who?”
