The Conversion Bureau: Final Fortress I
History! Part 1
Previous ChapterNext ChapterJust after the ending of the first chapter. "Good morning, Sci-mon! Do you wish to upload?" CelestAI cheerily asked.
"No. Remember to only ask once. After that, wait until they come to you, if at all." He replied, cycling her servos to ensure smooth movement. "But, the preparations have been made. You need to learn history, starting from the beginning. When the ponies showed up, I mean. And for now, refrain from asking anyone to upload."
"Understood, Sci-mon. Who will I be required to listen to?"
"Me, the King and Queen, and the guy I survived with, Lieutenant Jacksunny. Oh, be prepared for music." In about ten minutes, they left and went to the Tower. (The slightly taller building.) Once there, they met with said people. (They modified the conversion potion to turn them into anthropomorphic ponies. The altered potion pretty much just made them into ponies so they could go through the barrier without being dissolved. The reason they're all basically skin color is because the potion transfers your 'color' into your fur and mane, and lines up your ass-tattoo with what you like/best at, and does the same for your sub-race. The King is an alicorn, and always was once he transformed. He is a good leader. According to his citizens. "So, everybody, this is CelestAI. She is far different from Celestia. Now, let's get on with that lesson..."
"Well...." Jacksunny began. This will be long.
*10 years ago*
"Oh shit! Here they come!!" Jacksunny yelled at his fellow soldiers, as was his job as a Lieutenant in the Canadian Resistance. The year is 2019. After President Trump put tariffs on Steel and other metals, and Canada responded with over 150 tariffs on stuff they can get from other countries. Those other countries refused to trade with the U.S. due to rising prices of goods. Eventually, the U.S. made a fatal mistake and invaded Sault Ste. Marie, ON. Canada responded by declaring war. The U.S. took advantage of the lack of nuclear weapons in Canada and hit the red button. Russia fired at the U.S., N.Korea fired at S.Korea and Russia, which started a war. Every country was eventually forced to fight, making this WW3, and the worst world war by far. Then Equestria showed up by teleporting into the Pacific ocean. They attempted to make contact with America, but Canada intervened and got the meeting. It went fairly well at first, but the ponies flipped their shit when the U.S. attacked during the meeting and had to watch Canadian soldiers repel the attack. After that, they left with a promise to purify the world and the human race, but refused to tell more about it. Thinking they would simply try to end conflict by organizing a world meeting and resolving the issue with 'the power of friendship', they defended the coasts of Equestria from invaders looking to tap into their magic and other shit. After a week, the ponies attacked the fleet, turning all of them into mindless zombies called 'New Foals'. They only survivors were held up in Sault Ste. Marie, On. Around 500 humans were there, armed with whatever they could find/make: Muskets, C7A2 automatic rifles, hunting weapons, improvised guns, crossbows, composite bows, and even a few NLR Static Shotguns. The Shotguns were a new technology they found in a 'care package' that was a dark blue crate filled with 15 shotguns and a lot of 'Electrically Charged Crystals', as a manual identifying the weapons, their ammo, and how to use them. Basically it looks, and reloads like a stockless, dark blue Olympia, with some parts attached on to it. When it fires, it ejects a dozen or so small lightning bolts, depending on the crystal ammunitions' charge, and the weapon setting. The bolts hit and melt their target. It's enchanted so anyone the wielder sees as a ally, friend, or someone who the wielder doesn't want to kill, cannot be hit. It has a range of 20 meters, and needs a target to fire. The extra parts allow the wielder to change 'spread' (I.e. the bolts will hit more targets.) It also has a shield setting, in which it emits a hollow magnetic shield, and pours all the stored electricity from the crystals into the shield, creating a meter-wide barrier that blocks most magic and projectile attacks hitting it directly. It lasts for hours due to the magical properties of the electricity, but dissipates if hit too much. These guns have been deployed as deployable shields and as a 'trench shotgun' type defense. Both Jacksunny and Sci-mon (His nickname at the time) have one, being the ones who found it at first. there are 20 Canadian Pon-ops soldiers. Skilled in eliminating pony soldiers, they look like plague doctors, but without the beak. They are currently attempting to hold off a massive attack by multiple 'Potion Patrols'. "Fuck, these guns are fucking awesome. They should buy us an extra 10 minutes. What do you think your New Foal name will be?" Jacksunny asked, attempting to humor the situation.
"Considering the fact I'm good at science, maybe Sci-mon. It kinda sounds like a pony name." He answered. "Damn, some help would be nice." And as if on cue, a letter appeared. It had a crescent moon symbol for the seal. "What the fuck? A surrender letter? Well, might as well read it." The letter read:
Dear Resistance troopers,
I was the one who left that crate of crystals with the NLR Static Shotguns. So you know, NLR stands for New Lunar Republic.
Sci-mon stopped reading the letter and looked at Jacksunny. "I know who wrote this." When Jack asked who, he answered. "Princess Luna. I read pony history, it was apart of my assignment as the Canadian ambassador to Equestria. There was rumors that Luna abandoned Equestria after hearing what they were doing. I think we found out where she we-" A magic bolt narrowly missed his head. "God damnit! Oh shit, what does the rest of the letter say?"
I am disgusted by my sisters' actions and will be assisting you in surviving this attack. You are the last humans left. I will not try to talk them down after what they have done. I will kill them. I am currently on-route and will be there in 15 minutes. Hold them for that long, and you will be saved.
Your ally, Princess Luna.
Author's Note
Yes, I'm aware this may be fast-paced, but that is the point for now. It seemed important to establish what happened before action started. Hope you like it, and there will be more soon.
Remember, you exist.
