Earth is gone consumed by its mother sun as it expands into a red giant. Instead of it being an end for humanity they are already gone abandoning the earth taking all that could be saved to populate a new world. Fleeing earth in mighty ships called Arks they scattered among the stars. Aboard one Ark scientists discover a powerful Symbiotic entity and against the orders of the ship's captain they fuse the Symbiot to an infant host in hopes of making a weapon. A weapon to conquer any world already inhabited if they encounter one.

The Captain discovers the plot and sends in the security teams to secure the infant and destroy the scientists responsible. In the ensuing chaos, the ship is damaged and will cease to function. With their only hope being a few Cryopods the surviving crew draw lots and seal the chosen in their pods. The captian taking pity on the infant sacrifices himself to give the baby his pod.

The ship without a pilot crashes into Gia the home of Equestria just as Celestia is raising the moon. Feeling the strange ship strike the moon and seeing a part fall to the earth Celestia leads a group of guards to secure the crash site. Only one survivor is found the little infant.
