Richtofen in Equestria
Flashbacks
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe doctor was back a Der Riese, before the zombies, and before Richtofen's insanity. The mainframe area was crowded with scientist, guards, and Nazi soldiers, of countless numbers.
And standing next to the the mainframe, giving a speech, was none other than Dr. Maxis. The leader of group 935.
"This is our new invention! The MDT. It's basically a teleporter, and it's completely safe for human uses." Maxis announced. "There are three Teleporters around the facility, and each one sends you safely to the mainframe, located directly in front of me."
There where excited mumbles from the crowd. Making all of the scientist that worked on the MDT proud.
"I'm now going to tell my colleague, on the other side of the facility, to activate the teleporter." Dr. Maxis turned around, and spoke into a microphone.
"Dr. Richtofen, activate the MDT." He said over the loud speaker.

Across the facility Richtofen received the order, and activated the MDT. Being inside the magnetic field made Richtofen feel very numb. Like his whole body was asleep. He squeezed his eyes shut, and didn't move for about three seconds. Then, suddenly he felt as though he was free falling. He opened his eyes, and saw that he was going through a worm hole of some sorts. He made a mental note of what it looked like. He didn't have much time before the worm hole was replaced by hundreds of people eagerly awaiting Richtofen's arrival.
Slowly one by one, the crowd started clapping, and whistling for the invention. Maxis bowed, and Richtofen did the same.
"You made me proud today, Edward." Maxis said. "A promotion is in order."

That flashback suddenly was replaced by another. The doctor was in an Alaskan group 935 compound. Experimenting with element 115. Next to him was a Russian member of group 935. On the table ahead of him was a meteor rock containing the dangerous element.
Richtofen picked the rock up with metal claws, and half way through putting it in a decontamination chamber, it slipped out of the machines metal grip, landing right in the palm of the Russian group 935 member.
"IT BUURNS!" The Russian screamed throwing the rock across the room, he fell down, clutching his hand. Richtofen was standing there, not knowing what to do.
Finally, Richtofen knelt down, and looked at the Russian's palm. Y'know that vein on your wrist that's supposed to be purple, well his was black, and so was the skin on his palm.
"I... I don't think there is anything we can do here..." Richtofen said solemnly.
"Please! I don't want to die!" The Russian said, holding back tears. Since there was no cure for someone exposed to 115, there was nothing to prevent the painful death it caused... Except mercy killing.
Richtofen slowly upholstered his pistol, and aimed it at the Russian's head.
"Please, I have kids!" The Russian plead, actually crying now.
"I'm sorry, comrade..." Edward said, quietly. Halfway through pulling the trigger, someone opened the door, and saw Richtofen execute the crying Russian. On Richtofen's side, it was a mercy killing, and was the right thing to do, but on the person who opened the door's side, it was someone shooting someone in the head.
The alarm was rung, and guards were called in. Richtofen fought his way out, he didn't want to, but it was kill or be killed.
Richtofen killed 37 of group 935, and nobody knows what happened there, except Richtofen.

That flashback ended and yet another took it's place.
It was Richtofen's first encounter with zombies. After being exposed to element 115, one of the scientist's at Der Riese didn't want to be mercy killed, too bad the guards around him didn't know of the consequences of letting someone who's been near element 115 for too long, without protection. After he died, he was being carried to the morgue, he suddenly came back to life as a blood thirsty monster.
None of the morgue workers had weapons, so it was a piece of cake for the zombie. Then, the zombie moved on to the main factory, being followed by the newly infected morgue workers.

The factory alarm went off in the middle of the night, guards, and scientist's barely had enough time to get ready for the pack of zombies to storm into the facility. Richtofen was in one of the underground labs at the time, so he had extra preparation time. Richtofen, a few guards, and a few scientist barricaded the main access to the underground labs, with a few cabinets, a couch, and other pieces of random furniture.
All they could hear was zombie growls, screams, and gunshots. Eventually the screaming, and gunshots stopped, but the zombie moans, and growls persisted.
"Are... Are we t-the last ones?" One of the younger scientists asked.
"Nein, we can't be..." The lead guard said. The guards were armed with MP-40s, and the scientist were able to find weapons such as the Kar98k, and the STG-44. Richtofen, though, had a MP-40 just like the guards.
"Th-.... This can't be happening...." The young scientist said. Gripping his bolt-action rifle close to his chest.
Then suddenly a loud zombie screech echoed through the labs.
"They found us! Get ready to fight!" One of the guards yelled. The barricade they put together was simply pushed aside by the zombies.
"FIRE!" Someone said, Richtofen wasn't paying attention. While every one else was focused on keeping the undead back, Richtofen was searching for a way out. He spotted one fairly quickly. It was a vent in the corner.
Richtofen sneaked away from the group, and while they were getting overrun, Richtofen was crawling through vents, on his way to the surface.
