“Threatened to skin me alive, tear off my manhood, then use it to fuck me if I hurt you,” Blitz says.

Pinkie giggles. “She’s just family.”

“Is your whole family kind of psychotic and knows several horrible ways to kill things?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie grins creepily. “Just to get things done on rock farming.”

Blitz looks back at her. “I still don’t get that. Rock farming, what is it for?”

Pinkie gets a thinking pose. “Mainly getting jewels and gems.”

“And they came up with a brilliant pink jewel.” Blitz jokes.

Pinkie hugs him. “Aww, you’re so sweet. You think I was farmed well?”

“Farmed, no. Refined to be the best, yes.” Blitz says trying to be sweet. “That one got away from me there,” Blitz admits after a moment of silence.

Pinkie giggles and snorts and nuzzles him. “Aww, such a sweetheart. Hey, can I come along with you? I can make boring fun.”

“Worth a shot I guess,” Blitz says as Pinkie moves into his field of vision. “So Pinkie, what was with that somewhat creepy smile earlier?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie twitches her ear and smiles. “What smile?”

“You know your smile was a little bit bigger than usual and your eyes were had a slightly insane look in them,” Blitz says.

Pinkie giggles. “You’re probably just imagining things.” She said patting his head.

“No, I am pretty sure you…Pinkie, your right ear twitches when you are not telling me something.” Blitz says.

Pinkie grins and twitches. “No, I don’t.”

“Oh? Pinkie, what aren’t you telling me?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie shrugs. “I don’t know, I know just as much as you know.”

“Oh and if I do this?” Blitz asks starting to scratch behind her right ear.

Pinkie freezes up before leaning into his scratching and taps her hind leg. “Oh yeah, that feels good.”

“So you want to tell me?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie brings her tongue out like a dog. “No.”

Blitz keeps scratching. “So you admit to knowing something,” Blitz says.

Pinkie looks to him before licking his cheek. “Nope.” She said as her ear twitches again.

“Pinkie, what is this?” Blitz asks as a cupcake inside a barrier floated in front of her.

Pinkie looks to the cupcake. “Cupcake?” She asks before launching for it and hits the barrier.

“Nuh huh, Pinkie, you have to share something with me before I remove the barriers,” Blitz says as she paws it around like a cat with a yarn ball.

Pinkie frowns. “Aww, that’s not fair.” She said still pawing at it.

“Remember, I don’t play fair to get what I want,” Blitz says starting to pet her.

Pinkie leans into his petting. “Can I please have a cupcake?”

“When you tell me what I want to know,” Blitz says kissing her neck.

Pinkie moans. “You can have it then.”

“Tell me the story behind the insane like smile,” Blitz says.

Pinkie grabs his hoof and pokes his chest. “No, and that’s final.”

“Pinkie are you afraid of telling me or of thinking on it?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie looks to him. “Not really.”

“Then why?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie smiles and tilts her head. “Why what?”

“Why won’t you tell me about it?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie slowly reaches up and holds onto his face before bringing him to her violently. “It would be best if you stop with the questions.” Pinkie whispered in a low tone and with her face darkened by her hair before letting and smiling brightly.

“Ah, did I just spy another personality?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie looks confused. “What are you talking about?”

“Your hair straightened for an instant,” Blitz says.

Pinkie sweats a bit. “Oh look at the time, we are here.” She said getting off the couch and walking off and humming to herself.

“Don’t you want your cupcake?” Blitz asks causing her to shift into reverse.

A beeping sound is heard as Pinkie takes the floating box away. “It’ll fall away soon.” She said walking away with it.

“And here I wanted to hold her for a while,” Blitz says.

Spike chuckles as he walks past with a tablet. “Don’t worry, I’m sure she will let you once you’re down there. Might get really boring.”

“Spike, you’re going with Blitz.” Twilight calls out.

“Nope, he is staying here with the fillies. Look at that planet down there, it is mostly covered in ice.” Blitz says.

Twilight peeks her head out of the door. “He’s been stuck playing games so now it’s time for something fun. And Spike is a great assistant to have, especially for research collecting.”

“Well somebody needs to watch the fillies and Terran as he can’t handle that kind of cold and there is nopony who can keep them under control and I can’t risk one of my princess’ assistance,” Blitz says wrapping his hoof around her.

Twilight just looks to him. “He’s going. We can watch others easily as we have been doing that for a while. Besides, you want him to keep staring at a screen all day and just move his claws around and nothing else. He needs to get out once in a while.”

“I agree, just not on this planet,” Blitz says as Spike saw this became a contest of wills and he knew this is where Blitz would start cheating as he saw Blitz starting to scratch behind Twilight’s ears.

Twilight groans as she tries to compose herself. “You’re going into a base, it’ll be warm there and he can finish another easy job that might pay him too.”

“But he has a job here,” Blitz says as he started trailing kisses up Twilight’s neck.

Twilight blushes heavily. “It c…can be put on hold.”

“And besides you will also need help with something.” Blitz says feeling he was breaking down Twilight’s resistance to him.

Twilight shakes herself and slaps him in a childlike way. “Blitz, he needs to go, otherwise I will blame you for what he might be.”

“Ok, I guess him getting to talk to your brother and the rest of the family on that jewel of yours doesn’t matter. I mean, what does it matter to him not being able to talk to his family and has to work while you chat them up.” Blitz says instantly changing strategies, catching Twilight off guard with the sudden guilt trip.

Twilight huffs. “I could hold off on it until he gets back and he can tell what they are doing and his first mission out there instead of what he’s been doing for the whole time. Besides, I’m sure only Luna would love to hear about it and everypony else would fall asleep. Leaving them slightly disappointed that my husband and the prince isn’t allowing little Spike out on missions.”

“Play the clip,” Blitz says.

Twilight frowns as she watches the giant worms move around the ice land. “Again, he’s in a base. I doubt they would go there and plus, you’re landing there. You’re not landing far away from the base.”

“But, we will be leaving the base a lot with Spike alone in the base with mostly only scientists who can’t stop themselves from doing scientific experiments on any unknown creatures which Spike will be to them.” Blitz says as Twilight started to get a worried look like the thought of Spike being strapped to a table and being cut open like a high school science project started to play in her mind.

Twilight shakes her head. “So leave a soldier with him.”

“Yes, leave Spike practically alone in the base,” Blitz says causing Twilight to start to become suspicious why he was trying so hard to convince her to let Spike stay.

Twilight frowns and narrows her eyes. “He’ll be fine. He’s been along plenty of times and I regret those.” She said as an afterthought from the many times she went out and left him behind. “He’s been watching the library and also went on a journey alone too. He can do it. Are you going to keep treating him like a little foal forever or are you going to let him grow and experience the universe? You said we are going to experience a lot of things. Well you’re doing a poor job by not letting them experience it even if it pleases us and not dangerous.”

“I still don’t want him down there,” Blitz says.

Twilight leans in close. “Why is that? Why don’t you want him down there?”

“I just have a bad feeling about this,” Blitz admits as Twilight starts to use some of his tactics against him.

Twilight raises an eyebrow. “And what if it was on the ship? Shouldn’t the great soldier right next to me be there next to him just in case?”

“I would rather he would be with most of the clan. Pinkie is already coming along and I’m nervous enough with her as it is.” Blitz says as she continues to pet him.

Twilight smiles slightly. “And I would be feeling better if he was in the care of my husband.”

“And I would prefer if he was in the care of my loving wife,” Blitz says.

Twilight sighs and nuzzles him. “Blitz, let him experience what is out there.”

“Twi,” Blitz says looking her in the eyes.

“Hum…I kind of promised the CMC we would try this tennis game in the rec room.” Spike says interrupting them.

Twilight keeps looking at him. “Blitz.”

“Let’s let him decide love,” Blitz says somehow sweeping Twilight off her hooves and holding her.

Twilight smiles a bit and looks to Spike. “Hey Spike, want to go check out the planet?”

“Kinda about to do a few matches in this tennis game in the rec room with the CMC,” Spike says gesturing to his tennis outfit.

Twilight just raises an eyebrow.

“What, you thought I don’t play sports?” Spike asks.

Twilight just stares. “No, just that you’re playing tennis with three fillies. And the other option is the planet coming up. Once done with that, you’re going to be watching an icy planet instead of checking out what they might be doing, maybe something top secret.”

“Yeah and the last mission they got we nearly experienced Dead Space which you know nothing about,” Spike says.

Twilight frowns. “They just sent him on a boring mission. As a punishment. Give it a chance.”

“We shall see what happens this time, then maybe I will join the next mission,” Spike says walking away.

Twilight sighs. “There goes that one. You can put me down now.”

“I could, but I like holding you,” Blitz says before kissing her.

Twilight moans a bit before pulling back. “You better get ready.”

“Alright love,” Blitz says smirking having won the battle of wills.

Twilight rolls her eyes. “You only won because of Spike, not with me. Now wipe that off or no nights for you.”

“Oh am I smiling because of that or because I am holding you and getting to kiss you?” Blitz asks suggestively.

Twilight sighs. “Just go.”

“Ok,” Blitz says walking as he carries her.

Twilight smiles a bit. “You can put me down Blitz.”

“I can indeed, but I don’t want to,” Blitz says.

Twilight looks away a bit. “Blitz, can you promise me you’ll be alright?”

“I can try,” Blitz says playfully pulling her tail with his magic.

Twilight yelps. “Blitz, don’t pull like that.”

“Ok, later when we are alone,” Blitz whispers into her ear.

Twilight smiles a bit. “Blitz, you’ve paid too much attention to me, you know that right?”

“Because you are here right now. So has Shadow shared what I did for her with you yet?” Blitz asks.

Twilight blushed. “Are you going to use that suit on us?”

“Besides the suit,” Blitz says blushing a bit.

Twilight giggles a bit. “I mean, are you going to take us like that?”

“No, bad Twi, leave your fantasies for later,” Blitz says playfully booping her nose.

Twilight blushed. “So you will do it.”

“Moving on to what I was really referring to,” Blitz says.

Twilight rolls her eyes. “Yeah she told me. You really knocked her out.”

“Well sleeping gas will do that and like I was really going to let her go through surgery while awake,” Blitz says.

Twilight hits him slightly. “I meant what you gave her. Great job.”

“Yeah and like Octi was, she is really going to aim for that. Speaking of which, I will have to talk to Pinkie about that subject later.” Blitz says.

Twilight smiles. “Listen, you better get going. Time is getting closer.”

“I am,” Blitz says still refusing to put her down.

Twilight sighs. “Will you leave if I let have fun with me?”

“Nope. I won’t ever leave my girls I made a vow not to.” Blitz says cheekily.

Twilight laughs. “Really, that’s the best line you got?”

“At this moment, yes, to my shame,” Blitz says cheekily.

Twilight raises an eyebrow humorously before kissing his cheek. “Want to cuddle in bed for a bit?”

“Yeah and invite who you wish,” Blitz says.

Twilight smiles. “Alright, I’ll see who send. Who do you want though?”

“How about me?” Daring asks.

Blitz smiles a bit and brings her in. “Come here sexy.”

“Oh you know it,” Daring says wagging her flank at the two briefly before walking into his room.

Blitz grins. “You know, you might be even sexier if you do a temple run on me. I’m thinking of a temple name like testis. What do you think?”

“Four out of ten, now get your flank in here,” Daring says.

Blitz chuckles as he heads into the elevator and they head up. “What are you planning in your room? A wall of dicks that close in on you as you play with them?” That one comment just made Daring give him a glare. “Ok, ok, I’ll stop,” Blitz says as he nuzzles both her and Twilight.

Twilight just looks confused. “Where did you get that idea?”

Blitz smiles. “Just a book.”

Daring just keeps looking at him. “Must be a weird porn book.”

Blitz chuckles. “Or maybe a porn parody of your books.”

“Reconsidering doing this with you now,” Daring says pushing him away now mad.

Blitz sighs and puts Twilight down before moving to Daring. “You really sure about that?” Daring growls at him. “Oh, somepony is sore, huh? How about this then?” Blitz asks starting to massage her back.

Daring keeps growling at him. “Mr. Cross, do you remember what I did to you?”

“Be a little more specific please, my lovely professor,” Blitz says, starting to massage around her wings.

Daring tries to hold back her moans. “The hotel.”

“Of you mean when you hit me over the head with that chair,” Blitz says.

Daring finally moans and turns to him before lunging at him and pushing him against the wall. “I will hit you, you fucker.”

“I know you play rough, but I will remind you that you are the one who married me,” Blitz says.

Daring reels a hoof back and glares at him. “I will do it.”

Blitz just smiles and lunges forth and captures her in a kiss.

Daring widens her eyes in surprise and kisses back, but then let’s go and hits him right in the face. “There.” She said putting her hoof back onto his shoulder.

“I’m still conscious,” Blitz says, smirking as he brings her up against him.

Daring keeps watching him until she smirks. “Maybe I should ask for a wall with your dick on it. A whole lot of them.”

“Save those fantasies for your dreams and Daring, next time you get angry, please don’t throw the furniture around.” Blitz requests.

Daring huffs. “Then I would have just dreams. I would probably want the real thing.”

“Oh, you want it right now?” Blitz asks.

Daring smiles. “Take my hat and shirt off and we’ll see from there.” She said tracing a hoof on his chest.

“He does not have long to do that Daring.” Twilight reminds.

Daring sighs as she stares at where her hoof is tracing. “I know, I just want what he can give.”

“Then we best stop flirting and hurry to our room,” Twilight says as they reach the floor.

Blitz looks to the elevator. “That’s a long ride for some reason. Were we in a loading phase or was that the power of cutscenes?”

“No, that was us stopping at almost every floor,” Twilight says as she and Daring pushing him forward.

Blitz chuckles as he lands on the bed and turns around to see them taking some of their clothes off. “Wait, I want you two to take each other’s clothes off.” He said relaxing back a bit.

“Sorry, we are rushing right now. So foreplay next time.” Twilight says.

“Besides, we can play with each other while you are on the planet below,” Daring adds.

Blitz grins. “Can you send me a vid?”

“Nope,” Daring says as she was the first to jump onto him.

Twilight giggles. “Maybe we’ll send you a call while you’re out, but for now…” She said before jumping onto him as well.


Blitz smiles as he leans back in his seat as they headed down to the planet. “So…how did it go?” Pinkie asks.

Blitz smiles as he leans his head down to her lap. “Amazing. You girls really know how to treat a stallion.”

“Well I’ll let it go since it seems to have helped you relax,” Pinkie says.

Blitz chuckles. “Aw, feel left out?”

“They pinkie promised.” Pinkie growled.

“Oh come here,” Blitz says hugging her.

Pinkie moans and snuggles into his hug. “At least you care.”

“Yes, I do. Pinkie, since you are coming, I want you to do something for me.” Blitz says.

Pinkie nods. “What is it?”

“Stay close, I don’t have a good feeling about this mission and I don’t want to lose you,” Blitz says.

Pinkie smiles a bit and hug him tighter. “Can we snuggle?”

“Until the rest of the team coming along comes,” Blitz says.

Pinkie giggles and licks his cheek and giggles some more. “Funny hubby.”

“Only to you,” Blitz says.

Pinkie keeps hugging him and giving him the odd kiss now and then as the ship finally breaks the atmosphere and they find themselves on a snowy landscape. “Oh frozen fun.” Pinkie said as she looks through a window. “Can we have a snowball fight if we can?”

“Maybe, but it is only a few degrees above freezing out there,” Blitz says putting on his helmet.

Pinkie smiles as she sees the rest gearing up. “What about me?”

“Come here,” Blitz says opening a locker with what looked like a pony tailored suit.

Pinkie hops over and looks inside. “Oh, what is it?”

“An old thermo suit of mine, but it should be good enough for you,” Blitz says.

“Yippee! It’s comfy.” Pinkie yells as she hops around in her new suit.

Blitz looks back to the locker and sees the suit gone. “And that’s another rule broken.” He said closing it.

Everybody else just watches as Pinkie kept hopping around as the ship landed near a pyramid base that was slightly iced over and made of metal. As all of them walked out, or in Pinkie’s case, hopped out, they saw a person in arctic gear come out as well.

“Welcome Mandalorians, I’m very sorry, but you are not able to go inside yet. There is a relay system that you need to place.” He said giving them a tablet and a box. “This tablet holds the coordinates. Your rides are over there. Good luck.” He said pointing to the fenced-off area with snowmobiles inside.

The guy went right back in. “Yeah, I already don’t like this mission,” Blitz says suspiciously.

Pinkie waves at them from their rides. “Come on, let’s go.” She said cheerily.

“You five stay with the shuttle, nothing is to approach it. I will radio ahead if I am returning.” Blitz orders getting on the vehicle with Pinkie.

The other five get on their rides and they all ride off to where the coordinates told them to and once they reach the spot, they look behind them and can see the base on the horizon and an antenna on the other side. “Huh, must not have enough lines.” One of them said as Blitz and another Mandalorian set up the relay.

Blitz eyed the equipment over looking for something. Pinkie just hops around until she tripped and fell into the snow. “Owie.” She said with her head in the snow.

“You ok?” Blitz asks walking over.

Pinkie looks behind her and sees a helmet. “Oh, looks old and retro.” She said picking it up and sees a busted visor that looks like a rock went through it. “Huh.”

“Poor sod. Looks like something busted through his visor and killed him.” Blitz says looking at the helmet.

“Got the relay up.” The one working on the relay said as a sound started to be emitted from and he carefully pointed the antennas at the base and large antenna in the distance.

“Chief!” A Mandalorian said looking at the ground which seems to lower in elevation in a cave-like way.

“Do not go in there. The last thing I want is to lose any of you. Just finish applying the changes to that old tech.” Blitz says.

The Mandalorian looks at the cave before taking out a flare and lights it up before sending it down and sees it’s just a crater. “Huh, thought I saw something move.” She said to herself before walking away to the group.

The one at the relay taps the machine. “Done, they should have a connection now.”

“Just to be safe, add some insurance C insurance,” Blitz says

They all nod and take out a white pack before placing it around the entrance to the crater and slightly around the relay. “Okay, that should do it.” One said setting the charge.

“Put one on the relay,” Blitz says.

After they did that they got static come through the radio. “Good…come back.” A voice said, sounding like the man who met them when they landed.

They look to each other and ride, but not before the female Mandalorian looks to the carter and sees the flare move slightly. “Hope that’s the wind.” She said before they took off and the relay sound faded in the distance.

After they made it back, they find the team they left behind just sitting or standing around. “What did we missed?” Blitz asks.

A Mandalore looks to him. “Just yellow snow.”

Blitz looks around as if unconvinced. “Alright, you ten head back up to the ship. Something is off and I’m going to make those scientists talk. I’ll call when we are ready for a pickup.” Blitz says.

They all look to each other before nodding and everyone places the snowmobiles back in the fenced area before heading in the transport and leaves Blitz and Pinkie behind as they watch the transport lift off. “So are you going to call them back?” Pinkie asks as they head off.

Blitz chuckles. “We have to get out of here somehow.” He said before turning around and heads for the base with Pinkie following.

Pinkie smiles a bit. “You going to pro…is that rocks hitting something?” She asks turning around and sees many rocks hitting the transport.

“What?” Blitz asks.

They watch as more rocks and even bigger ones hit the transport until it hits the wing and makes it tip over before it loses balance and spins out of control and crashes into the snow and goes up in a fireball. Blitz quickly gets onto a snowmobile and Pinkie just watches as he rides off and heads for the crash site.

“Guys, come in,” Blitz yelled as he rides ever closer to the site. “Come in!” His only answer was static.

After stopping outside the crash site he looks around and sees some of the bodies handing out of the windows from the cockpit and could only conclude they were gone. He looks around and heads for the bay door and finds it slightly open. “Guys, can you hear me?” He asks as he pried the door open and heads inside. “Guys?” After a bit, he was forced out by the fire that was engulfing the ship. “Damn.”

“Sir!” A voice yelled as Blitz looks up and sees a few bodies standing up or sitting down. “We got tossed out, but other than a few broken bones, we’ll be fine.” The female Mandalorian said.

Blitz breathes out a sigh of relief before going to them. “What the hell happened?”

Another Mandalorian looks to him from the ground. “Don’t know, we were flying and all of sudden, rocks started to hit us and then a big rock clipped our wing and sent us spiraling.”

Blitz looks around and then sees something. “Is that a relay?” He asks spying the machine sticking out of the ground.

They all look over and see the same thing. “Yeah, same type and design.” A Mandalorian said before he looks into the distance and sees another antenna and then back to the base. “Seems like the same distance and right amount for a relay.”

They then hear the same thing from the other relay. “What is that noise?” The female Mandalorian asks.

The one who worked on the other relay goes over and digs the relay out of the snow. He then takes out a tablet and works on it before turning back to them. “This isn’t a relay, it’s a transponder.” He said while looking around.

They all look to him. “What do you mean transponder?” Blitz asks.

The Mandalorian looks back to him. “I mean there is a signal coming out of this thing. It might be calling out to something.”

Blitz narrows his eyes. “Calling out to what?”

The Mandalorian shrugs. “No idea, this sound isn’t in the database I got.”

“Those weren’t rocks. Those were a lifeform and looks like someone doesn’t want us to leave. I think it’s time to kick down a door.” Blitz says.

They all nod and pack up what they have before following him back to the base. “Sir, where’s the pink one?” One of them asks.

“She back there at the door, now come on before more of those things come back.” Blitz orders before teleporting them to the door.

“Pinkie,” Blitz calls before seeing the open door. “Oh boy.” He said before rushing inside and sees a large welcoming area and papers all over and some furniture turned over. “Looks like we’re not alone.” He said taking out a blaster. “Forget the pistols, go heavy.” Blitz orders as the door shut behind them.

They all jump slightly and look behind them before one of them goes to the door and tries to open it. “It’s locked.”

“Wait, you hear that?” Blitz asks.

They wait and hear some banging and some snow moving around. “Maybe it’s a good thing those doors are locked.” One of them said.

“Yeah, now instead of getting swarmed, we face an unknown,” Blitz says.

“Sound like the start of a horror story,” Pinkie says.

They all look ahead of them and sees Pinkie on the other side of the room. “Pinkie, are you okay?” Blitz asks as he walks over to her.

“Do you hear it?” Pinkie asks as she turns around again and looks to the papers on the wall.

Blitz stops as does everyone else. “Hear what?”

Pinkie doesn’t say anything as something like a song came to them. “Naughty Birdie’s song is made by pecking holes in trees, willows, cedars, sycamores and proud oaks reduced to cheese, woodland gods, all in a huff have forever cursed your naughty beak, what it pecks, it poisons now; your food, your nest even your young, your friends now all fear you. But your tears ring clearly through the wood even as they taint the dew, such a sad, sad, little birdy. Maybe one day this song will lift the curse and set you free.” They heard a female voice sang.

Pinkie then walks away and into a hallway where they all looked to each other before following her and they see some bodies of the scientists lying around with what looks like knife wounds.

“Make sure they stay dead.” Blitz orders.

The Mandalorians attach silencers to their blasters before firing into the hearts and brains of each body they pass, trying to stay quiet as Pinkie leads them to a dead-end of a long hall and she stops at the wall, not doing anything.

“Pinkie, you ok?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie says nothing as she raises a hoof and touches the wall and the wall suddenly lights up and then splits apart and shows an elevator. Pinkie then heads inside and turns around to the side, showing only part of her darkened face and hidden by the wall. Blitz and the team heads in and Pinkie presses a button on the wall before hitting more in no real order. The door closes and they feel it head down as they look to Pinkie who just kept staring at the controls before they stop and the doors open to a large hallway with some windows on the sides. Pinkie then steps out and they follow her.

“Pinkie?” Blitz asks raising a hoof which he quickly pulls back and jumps back as a knife suddenly takes the spot where he was and Pinkie kept moving forward.

“Sir?” A Mandalorian asks looking at a window.

Blitz looks to Pinkie still walking to the end of the hall before looking to the window and sees a large tall…thing…standing tall on what looks like tailcoats at about ten feet high and looks like a thin creature. “What the heck is that?”

“Blast it!” Blitz orders.

They all raise their weapons before it suddenly moves from its single light and heads into the darkness of the room. “Where did it go?”

They kept waiting until they put their weapons down and sees nothing still. “What the fuck was that?” A Mandalorian asks.

Blitz just looks confused and turns around and sees another window and looks through it to see a hairless creature sitting down and looking away from him. “Feels like a horror show in here.”

“Start laying traps behind us as we go, I don’t want to be taken by surprise.” Blitz orders.

They all lay charges on the window and support columns on the sides of the halls as they head down the hall and look into another window. They look inside and sees old rusted beds without any mattress on them and somethings trying to sleep on it. “Looks human.” One remark as one of the creatures pops it’s head up and looks at them with it’s blackened and shrunken eyes.

“Enough sightseeing you morons. I want to be gone before this turns into a cabin in the woods.” Blitz says.

They quickly look away and look into another window as they set more charges. They see just a tiny creature that looks like a gremlin with a knife. “Gremlin.” One said as they head to another window and sees what looks like a dog looking at some pictures on the ground. “Cute.” The female Mandalorian said as the dog turns it’s head around and looks to the window with what they can describe as a creepy human smile. “Not so cute now. I’m blowing it up.” She said sticking a charge on the window.

“What did I just say? The next one who does that, I’m shooting for insubordination, got it?!” Blitz yells.

The Mandalorians all look scared and nod before they reach the end of the hall and find a door there. “Setting motion sensors now,” Blitz says setting some sensors at the end of the hall and sides of it.

Pinkie opens the door and heads inside to which the others follow and stop behind her in a darkened room with only a single old light bulb above them. “Pinkie, are you okay?” Blitz asks carefully as he goes over to her before he hears a click and he yells out with everyone else as they fell down a shaft and end up hitting the dirt. “What the fuck?” Blitz groans.

Some of the Mandalorians look around. “Sir, this place seems like a forest.” One said as they see trees and rusted fencing.

“Shh, something is there,” Blitz says hearing something.

They all quiet down and ready their weapons as a humming sound, coming to the tune of the song, came to them. “Come on, let’s find a way out. Pinkie Pie is gone and I’m scared those things might get out.” Blitz hears as he keeps scanning the forest.

“We move, it will attack us. Seems something is hunting us.” Blitz informs.

One of the Mandalorians tries his night vision on his helmet and kept getting static. “Strange, anyone’s night vision working?”

“Which direction are you getting the most static from?” Blitz asks.

The Mandalorian looks around as he watches the static. “Lighter, not that way.” He then goes another way. “Heavier, heavier, heavy…oh shit!” He yells as he backpedals from the creature behind them that looks like a white-skinned human with no face wearing a suit.

“Gotcha,” Blitz says firing a missile from the armor on his front hoof in the direction. When the explosion happened, a cry of pain was heard. “Seems you are not so hidden from us!” Blitz calls out as the Mandalorian gets back to the rest of the group.

Soon, groans were heard as the smoke clears they see a body lying on the ground and in the shape of a pony. “Sir, isn’t that one of your species?” One asks.

“I’m considering no mercy. But let us see what it has to say.” Blitz says forcibly lifting the creature and holding it in place with his magic as it looked confused.

They watch as the white-coated pony with a black mane and tail looks around with no face. “Let’s see, new species or something more of a mystical or demonish like bloody mary,” Blitz says pondering.

They watch as the creature looks at them before they see more light behind appear and more and more of the darkness starts to recede towards the creature before some of the darkness forms dark tendrils forming out of it’s back. “Let it go.” Pinkie’s voice said.

“Pinkie?” Blitz asks turning to the source.

They look up and sees a small thin window in what looks like a large room. “Let it go.” She said again in a depressing tone.

“You are lucky she just gave you your existence, but ever try and hurt me, my clan, or anything I care about again like him and I will destroy you.” Blitz threatens before dropping it.

The creature looks to him as it stands up and the darkness finishes receding into it and the tendrils pull back into it. “Why?” They hear from it in a female tone.

“Why I let you live? You can thank my wife who’s hair is looking quite straight.” Blitz says noticing that detail as the creature was examining him more closely.

The creature looks to the others before looking back at him. “What do you call young ones?” It asks.

“Foals, why?” Blitz asks looking back to it.

The creature then walks to them as the group raised their weapons. “They have been putting children in here.” It said walking past them.

“So I was right, they are experimenting and you are not a natural creature, you are more among the darker mystical type,” Blitz says.

The creature keeps walking to where the window is and ends up at a door under it. “Slendermane.” It said looking at the door.

“Wait, the old ghost story,” Blitz says.

Slendermane looks back at him. “Yes, a human story changed into a pony.”

“So you…you know what, not even going to try and make sense of that. So you can’t open the door, right?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane doesn’t move. “This is an experiment room for a reason.”

“I see. Blow the door off its hinges.” Blitz orders.

The Mandalorians move to the door before they take out more charges and was about to place one on the door before it opens up to the hall that makes a turn to where they came from. “What?” One asks.

Slendermane just looks and heads through it. “I want him. But your tears ring clearly through the wood even as they taint the dew, such a sad, sad, little birdy. " She sang at the end.

“Are you talking to one of us or…my wife who is hiding something from me and possibly even herself?” Blitz says.

Slendermane doesn’t speak and just hums the tune as she walks down the hall with the others following and soon they end up going back upstairs through a set of stairs before coming back to the hall where they were and sees some of the creature’s bodies through the hall. “Some have never deserved it,” Slendermane said walking down the hall.

“Strange, none of the explosives went off…something else is going on here. Ah, so that’s it. The ones who did this are hoping we kill each other.” Blitz says getting Slendermane’s attention.

Slendermane slightly turns her head to him. “Those who open the door, close them also.”

“So either this is another experiment or they are hoping to clean house,” Blitz says thinking out loud.

Slendermane doesn’t say anything and stops as the bodies of the old humans looking extremely bone-thin and no hair. “Called Russian sleep experiment. You hear things even when the doors are closed.”

“Reminds me of reaper husk or maybe even collectors from the old vids,” Blitz says.

Slendermane then moved to the gremlin they looked at. “Mr. Widemouth. One who plays with children before leading them to a graveyard. Sometimes the doors are the same, but they lead to different rooms.”

“So like an ever-changing maze. So, odd question, were you ever on my species’ native planet?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane didn’t move until she moves to another body, this time of the hairless creature with its throat slit. “The Rake, I believe the word you humans say is ‘chupacabra’.” She said.

“Ok, who keeps killing these things with knives?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane then turns to the tail coated creature lying around with its tails spread out around it messed up. “No name, but called ‘The thing that stalks the fields.’ Captures others as pets.”

“One of those types killed more than I can remember.” Blitz says.

Slendermane looks around. “Smile is gone.”

“Was talking about a personal experience,” Blitz says.

Slendermane looks behind them. “Strange, Smile is usually outside my door.”

“Pining for you?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane doesn’t say anything and turns around and walks to the elevator before just standing there. “Those who see, sometimes wish they never even bothered to think about the door.”

“The elevator is a trap, a false opening to give hope of escape, by the way, you know about the rock monsters outside?” Blitz asks actually getting a surprised reaction.

Slendermane looks to him before standing still. “Most doors don’t lead to an escape, but rather going further into the mind and finding the true end to the story, the story of what one may walk through.” She said as she waited.

Blitz and the others go inside the elevator. “In other words, who’s the writer,” Blitz said as he hits the highest floor and the doors closed as the lights go off in the hall. “What are you going to do after this?”

Slendermane watches the floor numbers change. “Strange that I’m leaving. Even stranger that Smile is gone and this was still there.” She said simply as the elevator stops at the floor and the door opens up. “So that’s where he went.” She said as she sees the smiling dog standing next to Pinkie as they all look at an office where a person looking slightly terrified sits behind a desk.

“Pinkie?” Blitz asks entering alone.

Pinkie just slightly moves a knife along the ground. “You held them.” She said, not looking at Blitz.

“Stranded us and killed some of my men, don’t forget that Pinkie,” Blitz says.

Pinkie still didn’t look at him. “You didn’t even try at grabbing the moon rocks.” She said as they see a window which had legs around it and some rocks sometimes moving around.

Blitz closes the door. “Pinkie or are you some other personality?” Blitz asks. Pinkie just stands still, but Blitz hears a metal sound and looks down to see a knife stuck on the ground in front of him. “Huh, not bad.”

“You will deserve it.” Pinkie said before turning around and walking away to the elevator with the smiling dog following her and they head inside the elevator as the window cracks.

“So I am taking that as a yes and last ride. All who wish to live, get aboard, except you. You get on here, I’ll kill you personally by imploding you with my magic.” Blitz says following them and closes the door as the window shatters open and they hear furniture shattering and some screams.

Pinkie sighs. “Hi, Slendermane.”

Slendermane just flicks her tail on the ground. “Hi Pinkamena.”

“Wait, you know her?” Blitz asks Slendermane.

Slendermane just stares ahead. “She went for a walk.”

“You, me, talk later,” Blitz says to Pinkamena.

Pinkamina looks to him and the next thing Blitz knew was that he pressed up against the wall and a knife at his throat. “Yes?”

“We will talk when we are alone,” Blitz says turning his head, facing her as her reflection shows in the visor.

Pinkamina looks to the reflection before letting him and mysteriously putting the knife away. “Take good care of her.”

“Ah, finally getting an answer from you. So would you be upfront with me and tell me things.” Blitz says.

Pinkamina just stares ahead. “Take care of her.” She said before her mane and tail poofs up and becomes the same shape and color he knows.

“Well Pinkie, are you back?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie giggles nervously. “I got a lot to explain, don’t I?”

“Yes and you are going to have that other side come out and talk to us more. By the way, can she hear me right now? If not, tell her she didn’t scare me and if she wanted to go for me for the fear factor, then press the knife against the side of the next where the jugular is, that way when the heartbeats, it pushes the skin against it.” Blitz says.

Pinkie giggles as the smiling dog nuzzles her. “Smile, come here boy.” Slendermane said waving him over with her hoof.

“I don’t know what to think about with that one and Slendermane, will you give me some answers if I ask you questions?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane looks to him and almost seems like she’s smiling at him. “If you do something for me.”

“What planet do you want to go to?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane actually gives a giggling noise. “Actually, I want to travel around. Do you know how boring it is to just stay in one place?”

“And him?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane sighs and just rubs the smiling dog’s head. “Drop him on a civilized planet. He’s still an animal and can’t be stopped, but at least with a high civilization, it would be manageable.”

“One question, first, how many other species do you know?” Blitz asks.

“The asari confuse me. They are all female and have magic and yet don’t.” Slendermane asks.

Blitz smiles a bit. “Don’t what?”

“I don’t understand them,” Slendermane says.

“Humans and Equestrians are different?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane shrugs. “Something like that. The krogans, woof. That’s a brutish group if I ever saw one. The salarians, I would rather have an insect buzzing in my ear.”

“They come from lizards and licked their eyes.” Blitz says.

Slendermane giggles. “And they use to eat flies. The turians, I would see them sweat in my room if given the chance.”

“Yes, so hard to get most of them to show emotions.” Blitz says.

Slendermane shrugs. “Not unless you fell in love with one.”

“Won’t pry. So where are you from?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane actually stops. “No idea.”

“So where were you from, as far back as you can remember. Were you amongst humans or my kind?” Blitz asks.

Slendermane sighs. “Humans, till for some reason, I end up in this body and among you.”

“Maybe a portal appeared on the human’s homeworld to my kind’s. There is evidence our planets interacted.” Blitz says getting everything’s attention.

Slendermane nods a bit. “Maybe, now…how are you getting out of here and past the rock monsters?”

“Come in Darkline,” Blitz says.

“Darkline here, what do you need?” The voice asks.

“Lock on to my signal and transport all on here,” Blitz says as he shoots things onto Slendermane and on the dog.

Slendermane looks to where he shot her. “What was that about?”

“Beam us up to empty room seven.” Blitz says.

They all stood still as they hear some banging outside the door and above and below them. “Guess they know we’re here.” A Mandalorian said as they disappeared and the rock monsters burst inside to just stop at the empty room.


“And this is why I use the teleportation in case of emergencies,” Blitz says in the empty room.

Slendermane shakes herself as she tries to get rid of the feeling of the teleportation. “Feels wrong than mine.”

“Yeah, that was probably as close as you will get to unicorn magic teleporting,” Blitz says.

They soon look over to the door ahead of them and sees it open to a couple of crew and ponies who rightly screams out loud. “What the fuck is that?!” One yells looking at the dog.

Blitz just looks over to the dog and then back to them. “Smiling dog.” He said.

“Stay,” Blitz says to the dog. “Please don’t cause trouble,” Blitz says looking at Slendermane. “You lot, go to the infirmary to get checked out. You come with me.” Blitz says dragging Pinkie away.

Pinkie giggles. “Where’re we going?”

“My room for a private talk,” Blitz says.

Pinkie smiles. “Are we going to have fun?”

“Later, we have things to talk about,” Blitz says.

Pinkie cheers as she was dragged away and the crew and soldiers just look to Slendermane and the dog. “So, what do you do here for fun?” Slendermane asks.


Blitz finished locking down the door. “Minerva, I want full privacy for a while,” Blitz says.

Minerva groans. “Aw, you’re no fun.” She said before going away.

“Ok Pinkie, let us talk,” Blitz says taking off his helmet.

Pinkie hops onto his bed. “And that would be?”

“Pinkamina side,” Blitz says.

Pinkie sighs. “It’s just my old self.”

“Old self?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie nods. “Yeah, before I discovered parties.”

“And she is your original personality?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie nods. “Yeah, she’s a bit moody.”

“How long has she been asleep?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie tries to think. “She woke up once before, but that was it. About a few years ago.”

“So you got to inform her about a few things,” Blitz says.

Pinkie smiles. “What about?” Blitz keeps taking off his armor when a light bulb appeared over Pinkie’s head. “My marriage?”

“Yes,” Blitz says.

Pinkie then smiles. “Silly, she knows.”

“Oh, how much?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie thinks for a bit. “At least my whole life up to now, and this second and this second and this second and this second and…”

“The wedding night,” Blitz says.

Pinkie giggles. “Nope, she wanted to enjoy.”

“Really? So what about when Maud threatened me?” Blitz asks.

Pinkie grins. “Oh, she liked that very much.”

“Figured as much. So Pinkie, you mind making her come out I want to talk to her face to face.” Blitz says.

“For what?” Pinkie asks with her voice not its usual bubbly self and more serious.

“Well, I want to get to know her better on a personal level. I know you, but not her and if you want to get technical, I am also married to her.” Blitz says.

“Really, what do you want to talk about?” She asks as he hears the same tone he heard in the base.

“Ah Pinkamena, this is a two-way street so if you want to know, ask,” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia raises an eyebrow as she straightens out her hair. “Why choose her?”

“Pinkie or one of the others?” Blitz says starting to dress in some of his normal clothes.

“Pinkie.”

“A lot of reasons. One would be maybe wanting to hold and protect her from the evils I have known and killed.” Blitz says.

Pinkamina sighs. “Of course you would. Any other?”

“I saw a wounded soul who also sought companionship,” Blitz says turning back to her.

Pinkiemenia looks to him. “Whose, hers?”

“And yours, I am a very good judge of character because of my life. Looking back, I guess I saw a part of you.” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia scoffs. “Get on the bed you stupid stallion.”

“Alright.” Blitz got onto the bed and looks her over. “You know, I think your preferred hair style is sexy,” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia blushes a bit. “Stupid stallion, you just got that out of a book.”

“Nope, I don’t use that stuff. Anything cheesy I say, I mean it.” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia looks to him slightly. “Prove it, no words.”

“Later, I still wish to talk to you. After all, we have only just started talking. By the way, did Pinkie tell you what I said about the knife.” Blitz says.

Blitz suddenly feels himself flipped over and pinned as Pinkiemenia straddles him and places a knife at his throat. “How’s that?” She asks running the blade over his vessel.

“You’re not holding the knife at the optimal angle, also you’re not pressing it hard enough,” Blitz says neutrally.

Pinkiemenia leans in close. “She doesn’t want me to kill you. Even that close.” She said flipping the knife and pulling it away slowly.

“You also have a glaring opening,” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia leans down to his ear. “I just enjoy the kill. You, however, will have to do more to please me.”

“Then just slash a shallow cut, making them panic in their eyes, but not to the degree where they will bleed out, most don’t think straight when that happens,” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia looks slightly over to him. “Why help me kill?”

“Killing is my business,” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia huffs and starts to slowly lick his ear. “What else do you want?” She asks as her hair fell over his face.

“Tell me about yourself,” Blitz says pulling her close.

Pinkiemenia sighs as she keeps licking. “What’s there to tell? I’m a killer.”

“Who isn’t on this ship?” Blitz asks.

Pinkiemenia stops licking for a moment. “Just don’t leave her.”

“Never will and now that involves you,” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia huffs and starts licking his neck. “There’s nothing for me, nothing but blood.”

“Nope, you are now mine,” Blitz says flipping them, putting her on the bottom.

Pinkiemenia looks to him as she puts her hind legs around his waist. “Why take me?”

“Why not?” Blitz asks using his magic to playfully pull her tail.

Pinkiemenia narrows her eyes slightly. “Stupid stallion.” She said, turning her head away.

Blitz smiles before stopping and leans down. “You know, I’m liking you more and more, your style and attitude just make you beautiful to me.”

Pinkiemenia scoffs. “Yeah right.” She said, trying to find a more interesting thing to stare at.

“I don’t lie to my mares. So tell me, do you like this?” Blitz asks using his magic to playfully twist her nipples.

Pinkiemenia’s eyes widen for a bit before smacking her hoof across his face. “Congratulations, you have earned the title, idiot.”

“So you don’t like it then. Good to know. A few other girls like that.” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia huffs. “That’s them, this is her.”

“Actually that turned Pinkie on,” Blitz says surprising Pinkamena.

Pinkiemenia tires to keep looking away. “Idiot.” She whispered.

“I love you too my tough wife. Now, what would you want me to try next?” Blitz asks.

Pinkiemenia just stares away. “Just…just…” She sighs. “Just hold me.” Blitz nods and holds her close. “Never lose. Never let the door close.”

“Now you can’t ever leave and go back to sleep,” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia then looks above them and tears up a bit. “This is for her. I have to. For them.”

“No, you are here and you will stay as Pinkie does. You won’t leave me or her.” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia sighs. “Who do you want then, me or her?”

“There is no distinction, you are both two halves of the same coin,” Blitz says once again catching her off guard.

“You’re going to want the other soon. I can’t stay.” She said.

“Why not?” Blitz presses.

Pinkiemenia sighs. “Because I remember the faces.”

“How their eyes beg you not to kill them and how they plead for you to let them live?” Blitz asks.

Pinkiemenia stayed still. “Her friends.”

“They are your friends too. Even though you fear to make attachments.” Blitz says silencing her.

Pinkiemenia stayed silent for a bit. “Do it.”

“Alright, I will. You are mine.” Blitz says before kissing her full on.

Pinkiemenia breathes and tries to take it before trying to force him off. “You idiot.”

“You are mine. You are my wife, whether you want it or are you afraid of it.” Blitz says.

Pinkiemenia just pushes him up a bit before putting her hoof on his chest and moving it down with his zipper on his clothing. “My idiot.” She said smiling a bit.

“There we go,” Blitz says as she got a full view of his scarred chest and traces it. “Did you know Bloody Mary?” Blitz asks.

Pinkiemenia sighs. “Yes, but this is not about her.” She said as she traced a hoof along a scar. “I’m sorry.”

“About what, how I recognized you from Yavin 7 twelve years ago when you tried to kill me and I evaded getting cut in the throat, punched you hard in the face, and only caught a brief glimpse?” Blitz asks.

Pinkiemenia looks to him as she keeps tracing a hoof downward. “At least she didn’t get this.”

“Does it look like I care or hold a grudge?” Blitz asks smiling at her.

Pinkiemenia sighs and drops her hoof. “Treat me…treat me…what’s the word?”

“Like my wife.” Blitz side before kissing her again.

For the first time, Pinkamena truly smiled.

“Now do you want me to do our honeymoon night?” Blitz asks.

Pinkiemenia smirks before flipping him over. “What do you think?”

“I think you are a naughty little mare,” Blitz says smirking.
