The Strange Tales of Dr. Weird.

It had been years since that faithful day. The explosion from Dr. Weird's device had nearly been his end, but Steve had managed to survive. Nearly every day something of similar danger had happened. Steve had always been a resilient pony, but he feared that one day Dr. Weird's antics would be his end. He heard muttering outside of his door. Eager for a listen to one of the Doctor's rants, he pressed his ear up against the door. "Divide the square root of reality by the eagerness of a young filly, take the remainder and multiply it by Luna's Spite then distill by candle light. Imbibe after mixing with a unicorns feather to cure most skin rashes..." The noise trailed off. The Doctor was a brilliant man, but it seemed that his old age was taking it's toll on his sanity. To Steve's chagrin, it hadn't dampened his genius intellect. Steve jumped in shock when he heard the knock on his door. Shit, he was hoping that Dr. Weird would have been busy for at least another day on his mystery project. He quickly opened the door and followed the Doctor to the lab.

"Using the money graciously gifted to me by Princess Celestia, I have constructed a being that will solve one of our most pressing problems. Pausing for dramatic effect, the unicorn continued, Vegetables have threatened equine kind for generations! Behold..." Dr. Weird was rudely interrupted by a confused Steve. "Dr. Weird, weren't you given that research grant to cure Pony Pox?" Dr. Weird just stared back at Steve until , unabashed, he proclaimed in his trademark voice, "Behold,the Angelbot."

A steel shutter door slowly opened to reveal a two story tall robotic rabbit. This horrific artificial rodent had red beady eyes, stubby but razor sharp claws and pneumatic hopping action! Slightly worried for his well being, Steve began to question. " Dr. Weird, I..." Sensing dissent, Dr. Weird was quick to bark orders to derail Steve's train of thought. "Now bring me my large french perfume and spray him in the eyes, because that's how it happened to me!" Steve pressed a button, which lowered a comically shaped spray bottle that sprayed expensive french perfume in the robot's eyes.  Angered, the robot turned it's head around 360 degrees to avoid the agitating spray... but to no avail! Oddly, it shrieked like an enraged chimpanzee. Dr. Weird looked on with pride in his eyes, "Now you feel pity... don't you?!? MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

The Angelbot was tired of it's creator treating it so shamefully! Was it not his child? Deciding against any further abuse, it began to hop away. Dr. Weird's look of pride was instantly replaced with a look of rage! "The Angelbot! My creation!" The Angelbot bounded clear through the Unicornium walls of the laboratory, leaving naught but the outline of an irate bunny in the seemingly indestructible wall. Dr. Weird looked on in horror as his creation bounded down towards Ponyville. In sheer horror he cried out, "WHAT HAS SCIENCE DOOOOONE!?!" Steve facehoofed.
