Thorax, Discord, Starlight, Trixie and I emerges inside the Enterprise’s cockpit while the others are in the lower deck. We sit down on five of each chairs, and Discord was sitting on the pilot seat.

“That is one comfortable chair.” Discord says,

“Are you sure that you know how to use it?” I ask,

“This one has no interface.” He says, “Thanks to highly advanced technology.”

“Okay, people, listen up. When you get inside the mothership, we’ll loose your signal so you’ll only have one hour before the queen’s ship reaches Abbas’s hideout, and when she reached over the ocean in forty minutes, we’ll send a fleet of fighters along with your grandfather to the alien ship. If that mission fails, we won’t have a chance to defeat them.” Thomas says in my radio. “Good luck.”

I take a deep breath. “Here we go.”

Discord swipes the screen in the flight computer.

The Enterprise’s anti-gravity engines roar, and then it hovers. The star gate in front of us activates from the end of the tunnel.

“We’re ready for take off.” Discord swipes the screen forward.

The Enterprise moves forward through the tunnel, and then through the star gate. As we made it to end of the gate, our human forms turned into ponies (plus a draconequus and a reformed changeling), and then our ship emerges out of the tunnel.

“I’ve got to get me one of these!” Discord exclaims,

“I’ve never been inside a ship before.” Starlight says,

Discord moves our abductor ship towards the sky. Suddenly, our ship barrel rolls 360 degrees as we hang on tight.

Trixie felt dizzy. “Never do that again!”

“I’m just excited about this bad boy.” Discord let go of the screen, “Look! No hands.” He quickly put his hands back on the screen,

“Discord!” I say,

Within about five minutes of traveling through the atmosphere, I moan worried that we were higher above ground.

“You’re okay?” Discord asks,

“Sorry. I was worried that...” I say,

Within seconds, the sky turns from day to night, and then there’s total silence.

“This is the first time being in space.”

We flew right pass the barrier, and then our pony forms turn into human/Anthro forms. From behind the moon, there’s a worm hole a quarter the size of it, and right in front of it was an alien mothership heading to Equis’s atmosphere.

“There it is.” Thorax says pointing at the ship, “That’s the queen’s mothership.”

Discord taps the screen. “Switching to auto pilot.”

The Enterprise moves automatically towards the queen’s mothership.

As we draw closer to the mothership, it was like a huge wall about ten miles high. Our ship then heads for a rectangular tunnel entrance that could fit three alien Cruisers and it has a magnetic force field that protects their life support systems from the vacuums of space.

The Enterprise enters the tunnel about a mile long, and once we made it to the other side, the environment with orange/yellow air looks like a wasteland with rivers, lakes and some alien life.

“Well that reminds me before I was like this.” Thorax says,

“Yeah.” Starlight says,

“Look at these creatures down there.” I say looking down the ‘ground’ to see strange bipedal grazing animals with tusks. “They have their own ecosystem.”

“How can they live in this?” Starlight asks,

“Faust told me that their planet looked like a barren wasteland with one small ocean and less oxygen than Earth.”

Several tripods grab some of the alien grazers, and they tuck them inside the tanks form the back of their heads.

“What’re they doing?” Starlight asks,

“They’re harvesting alien cows.” I say, “These tripods are used for farming.”

A flock of small winged creatures fly right pass our ship. The Enterprise moves around a colossal fungus the size of an empire state building, and then in the distance, where it’s located in the center of an alien ship, there’s a huge twelve mile high castle-like structure surrounded by a fleet of alien ships.

I point at the alien hive. “There it is. That’s where the queen is.”

The Enterprise moves in towards the alien castle. They’re thousands of worker aliens constructing around the hive.

“What’re they doing?” Starlight asks,

“Looks like they’re upgrading the hive.” I say,

The Enterprise moves in towards the docking bay where alien workers from the watch tower in front of us watch the docking bay.

Trixie is scared. “I don’t like this! They can see us!”

“Don’t worry.” I say, “They can’t see us through the window.”

The rail platforms emerge out of the base, and then we land safely onto them. The rail platform drags our ship towards the hive entrance, and then it stops near it.

“Alright we’re in.” I say as I stand up. “Let’s do this.”

We walk down to the lower deck, and we re group with the others.

“Are we there yet?” Rebecca asks,

“Come on, guys.” I say,

“I’ll stay here, and guard the ship.” Discord says,

“Me too.” Trixie says,

“Be careful, Trixie.” Starlight says,

“Let’s do this!” I say as we draw out weapons,

We emerge out of the Enterprise, and we (except Discord and Trixie) walk down the platform without the aliens from the watch tower see us. After we made it to the door, I open it, and then we step inside before the door shuts behind us. It looks like a hallway made of alien material.

“Let’s go.” I whisper,

I lead them down the hallway. We turn left where it leads to a monorail station. We board the monorail, and then I press the console. The monorail moves forward down the huge area across the alien castle.

“Wait shouldn’t the aliens are supposed to be airborne?” Kelly asks, “Why the heck are they using monorails?”

I shrug. “I don’t know. For their slaves.”

Suddenly, the monorail stops.

“Why’re we stopping?” Rebecca asks,

Just then, two drones appear from the walls, and they’re heading this way.

“Everyone, don’t move a muscle.” I whisper,

As we did what I say, the drones hover around us scanning around the monorail. Within about ten seconds, the drones leave.

“Okay, we’re good.” I whisper as the monorail continues to move towards the structure.

We exhale when the drones didn’t see us moving.

“How come they didn’t react when we stop moving?” Thorax asks,

“All alien robots have motion signatures.” I reply, “So they detect movement.”

“Good point.”

The monorail stops, and we jump off board. We emerge through the door, and then we’re inside an empty room, but they’re three Greys working on the alien computers.

“Stupid aliens.” I whisper as Kelly, James and I draw our plasma rifles.

We take out all three of them, and then they die. The alarm didn’t sound.

“We’re good. Move out.”

As we walk towards the door ahead of us at the end of the room, the speakers say. “Quo fubo chloo sucaurgyuoc yum cosgel hyubo. Yumbocgyutugo cho leen.” That was Chrysalis’s voice.

“Chrysalis!” I hiss as I open the door.

The second door next to the room opens, and two worker aliens walk in, and they investigate the Grey’s corpse.

We quietly step through the door undetected, and the door closes behind us. As we walk down the hallway, we hear movement coming from the right where we can see shadows.

“Patrol.” I whisper,

“I got this.” James unhooks his ghost grenade,

As the ghost grenade creates an invisible bubble, we cloak, and then we stick against the wall. Two alien soldiers show up, and they walk right pass us. One soldier that was behind, however, stops, and then it sniffs. I turns at us, and then it leans over Lauren’s helmet. It didn’t see us, but it sensed us.

The soldier then regroups with the first soldier, and they disappear through the door. We uncloak ourselves as the soldiers are gone.

“No wonder that aliens have a keen sense of smell.” I say, “But not as powerful as a Tyrannosaurus.”

Thorax and Starlight look at each other. “What’s a Tyrannosaurus?” She asks,

I roll my eyes. “Just keep going.”

We continue down the hallway, and then we hide behind the wall. I look around the corner. On the other side, there was a chamber filled with hundreds of cocoons hanging from the ceiling and some have Anthro ponies inside them, and thousands of basketball-sized eggs gather around the chamber, but there’s no sign of aliens around here.

“The coast is clear.” I whisper,

We walk inside the nesting chamber.

“What is all this?” Nick asks,

“It’s some kind of nesting chamber.” I say,

“And they’re five ponies inside each chamber.” Starlight says,

“Let’s get them out, and find Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Celestia, Luna, Cadance, Shining Armor and Flurry Heart in one of these cocoons.”

As they cut the cocoons to free the hostages, Lauren says, “Well they’re not in these cocoons.”

“Well if they’re not here, the only place they could be is...” James says,

We look towards the tunnel, where I think it leads to the throne room.

“They’re inside the Queen’s Chamber.” I say,

“Chrysalis’s using the staff to find Abbas, and if we can’t retrieve it within thirty minutes, the fleet will arrive too late.” Lauren says,

Nick, Rebecca, Starlight, Thorax and Kelly help the five hostages (one male, two females and two young females).

“You guys stay here with the hostages; Starlight, Thorax, you’re coming with me.” I say,

Just then, the alien worker emerges through the door we went through. We gasp when we’ve been detected. The alien screeches, and then its fin vibrates.

P.O.V. Chrysalis

”We have infiltrators in the nesting chamber.” The worker says in my head, “Brandon Carter was with them.”

I smile. “Brandon Carter, we’ve meet again at last!”

“Shoot!” I kill the worker (without its personal shields) with my plasma rifle. “They know we’re here!”

The speakers that sounds like Chrysalis says, “Vlumjem Sulgol yuc resugoja. Uggusp! Uggusp! UGGUSP!” The alarm sounds.

“You guys round the rest of the survivors while Thorax, Starlight and I will move to the throne room.” I say,

“Hurry.” Lauren says,

As the door opens and the rest of the group open fires, James uses his ghost grenade to cloak Starlight, Thorax and me, and the three of us run down the tunnel while the others search around the structure for survivors as long as they secure the nesting chamber.
