Blast to the past.....

Ultrabyte sighed with content. She had just finished training half of the police force, but now that they were done, the other half was going to come in for training soon. She and the other kids in the after school club were talking. Burning Brilliance had found another bunker, made by General Burrow. After the encounter with the robot Burrow had gotten made that Derpy named Infinity Crisis, Burning Brilliance searched for more bunkers that might hold other dangerous devices. Fortunately, this one was easy: it was an information vault. Burrow had planted sevral of them around the continent, and all of them held massive amounts of information. The last one the had gotten into held information about a possible solution for global warming and plant growth serum. As the gang gathered to the computer, Burning Brilliance talked about the size and density of the coding.

"This is bigger than anything we've found so far," he was saying. "It might be some kind of A.I, or something dangerous. We don't want a repeat of Infinity Crisis." Everyone looked at Derpy, who blushed and hung her head in sadness. Two weeks ago, she had tried to 'fix' a robot that had been programmed with a single purpose: To kill Ultrabyte. And it almost did, until Derpy accidentally removed Infinity Crisis's only image of Ultrabyte. This had caused Infinity Crisis to start killing everyone it saw, thinking that they were Ultrabyte. The first person it had killed was Derpy. However, she had been able to transfer herself into a pair of Multipurpose Headgear that Raw Data and Ultrabyte had designed and made. Later on, Derpy was able to get back into Infinity Crisis's head-literally-and gave him a picture of Ultrabyte-It was really a picture of Infinity Crisis-and told him to look in Canterlot High. Raw Data, the real Ultrabyte, Flash and Sunset Shimmer trapped it behind some mirrors, were it then destroyed itself with a lightsaber, something that Raw Data and Burning Brilliance were still trying to make.

"So we'll transport it to the holding block at my house?" Raw Data asked. Burning Brilliance nodded.

"I still think we should've built it at my house, but yes," he said. "Anyway, once you've done so, run the systems, check for any viruses." Raw Data nodded.

"You'll bring our bodies back to my house?" he asked. Burning Brilliance nodded.

"Come on, of course," he said. "Now go, times a wasting!" Everyone else sat down in front of their computers and started concentrating. As their bodies collapsed and their conciseness entered the computers, heading towards the information vault, Burning Brilliance slung Sunset Shimmer's body over his shoulder and started heading towards his car. He had usually gotten help with this from the policemen that hadn't entered the computers, but today he was solo, so it was going to take a while.

I should bring a wheelbarrow for the future excursions, he thought. Back with Ultrabyte, Raw Data and the others, they had reached the information vault, their coded bodies made into forms that were the closet to being clothed: Censor bars. Burning Brilliance had been right. It was the biggest they had come across.

"Well, let's get this over with," Rainbow Dash said. "Raw Data, you've got the transporter?" Raw Data shook his head.

"Flash has it," he said. Rainbow Dash turned to Flash. He was holding a data holder, which Raw Data, Ultrabyte and Twilight had spent almost a week designing. It had a funnel at the front to suck in any data it was pointed at, including any of the humans. It could be set up to connect to a physical object so the data sucked in would transfer straight to that, which was what it was configured to: transfer all of the information vault to a kind of processing machine, that scanned all data in it to see if any of it was dangerous to the humans.

"Come on, you can do the transfer," Rainbow Dash said. "Let's see what's in here!" Flash aimed the funnel at the information and pressed the button. The funnel started making a sound much like the sound a vacuum makes, and the information in front of it started getting sucked in. It took almost five minutes, longer than the others, but the data vault was bigger than the other ones. A ding sounded, signaling that all the data had been sucked in.

"Okay, now that that's done, let's get going," Rainbow Dash said. Raw Data frowned at her.

"Be patient," Raw Data said. "You can't always...dash...your way through life." Everyone groaned.

"Really?" Pinkie said.

"Please don't ever use my name as a pun again, please," Rainbow Dash said. "That was terrible."

"Yeah, as the joker of the group, and the expert on parties, please never do that again," Pinkie said. As the group floated through the digiverse towards Raw Data's house, people started talking to one another. Derpy talked to Flash about a new muffin recipe she had found, Applejack told Rainbow Dash about another 'situation' at Applejack's farm, and Fluttershy talked to Ultrabyte about making a possible digital zoo. But then they got to Raw Data's house. Their bodies were piled up in the basement. As each returned to his or her body, Flash stood up and looked at the information on the screen of the processing machine.

"Anything dangerous found?" Raw Data asked.

"Not yet," Flash said. "But that could change." Burning Brilliance walked into the room.

"Nice, you got it!" he exclaimed. "What's in it?" Flash shrugged.

"So far, it just seems to be journal entries," Flash said. "General Burrow's journal entries." Burning Brilliance whistled.

"That could help us out," he said. "We could find all kind of information about where more information vaults are at."

"Yeah, but-" Suddenly Flash was cut off. But not by someone else. Not by anyone. He, and everything else in the room, not, the entire house, stopped moving. And it remained that way for a long, long time.

Author's Note

Well, I've finally gotten around to writing this. It might be a little while before I can post the next chapter, unfortunately, and that's because of tests. I am sorry.
