Chapter 6

Ponyville used to be a peaceful town, before the invasion, but now it was just a stronghold for the Caribou Armada…

It was a beautiful night, but not a quiet night b cause the air was filled with screams of pain, of fear, of death and sex…

The soldiers that are stationed in Ponyville were ordered to show these weak ponies that the Caribou were not to be trifled with, and that they were the superior race of all…

It’s time to show them exactly why you shouldn’t mess with an enraged being that used to be bound by The Chaos Bringer…

The screams lessened slightly as both Ponykind and Caribou alike heard a noise that they’ve never heard before…

The guards that are stationed out in perimeter of the town looked up and they saw something that awed and terrified them…

A spiky looking object that glowed purple and had sleek and curvy edges that looked like it was built for speed and battle mixed into one.

The flying craft descended lower to the ground and came at the main perimeter outpost, causing the 30 Caribou stationed there to panic as it’s speed increased, and the distance got less and less…

Then, as the Manticore sized craft got almost a few feet from impacting the small compound, it pulled up, causing some of the Caribou soldiers placed on top of the guard wall of the building to duck and yell out profanities.

Then the craft broke apart into tiny pieces, a sound of shifting metal filling the deathly air, and the pieces moved and got rearranged as the flying vehicle changed into a large bipedal form…

The 7 ft Titan landed in front of the crowd, making the ground shake and a small crater in the earth indicated how hard the landing was.

The soldiers began to glare daggers at the being that dared trespass their ‘sacred’ territory, before their murderous expressions turned into fear at the menacing 7ft metallic figure whose glowing red eyes were glaring back at them with a fiery rage that made some almost soil themselves…

The being glared at the Caribou for a few moments, before he spoke, his raspy voice causing some of them to shudder at the potent malice and disdain he had in his tone.

" Tribe of the Caribou, prepare to meet your Oblivion!” Megatron declared, his face turning into an ugly sneer on his upper glossa as he glared down at the organics that stared back up at him with unadulterated terror, his optics glowing with unlimited power and hatred in the moonlight…


In the deeper part of town, the hundreds of Pony prisoners of all ages and both genders listened as the sounds of ultimate doom filled the air, explosions echoed across the town and the sounds of various Caribou meeting their horrible demise.

Some were wondering what the hell was causing their ‘Masters’ such grief and chaos… and routed for whoever was attacking...

Others prayed internally that whoever was out there attacking the Caribou were giving it all they got, and that he/she can save them all from perdition…

Megatron snarled as his fusion cannon took out about 6 of the Caribou soldiers, while his Saber Wave pushed back another 20 that tried to charge him.

The mech then put away his Dark Star Saber and deactivated his cannon, both servos glowing with menacing violet color that was associated with Dark Energon as he activated his arsenal once again.

Both servos got replaced by thick spiky cannons with their barrel ends look like menacing maws with sharp teeth.

He aimed both cannons at random points in the dense crowd of soldiers that he swept back, and fired…

Twin blasts of energy shot out of his blasters and impacted the ground of the scattering Caribou, causing an explosion of dirt, and bloodied body parts and insides to fly through the air, the area filled with disturbed dirt and smoke from the blasts he caused.

Some of the Caribou soldiers tried to shoot at the mech that dared to attack them, but they couldn’t even see his silhouette in the dust cloud…

It was quiet for a few moments, causing some of the Caribou to edge closer to the dust cloud, eager to see if they killed the unknown, so that they could boast to King Dainn of their achievements.

A dark purple glow showed in the middle of the cloud and Megatron charged out of the cloud, his right blaster replaced by the scythe that he used on the corrupted stallion, and his left was a gigantic spike hammer that looked very destructive.

His optics took on the violet purple glow again, this time spilling out and smoking like a certain Unicorn king, making him even MORE menacing in the night than before…

A few of the soldiers gulped in fear, regretting their life choices at the moment...

With a roar of rage, Megatron swung his right scythe, cutting through soldiers like butter, and then he swung his left servo over head and the hammer impacted the ground, his optics watching the large amount of blood and body parts splattering the ground and part of his chassis from the attack.

With growls that made him seem like an animal, Megatron deactivated his right scythe and shoved his servo into the final Caribou’s chest, grabbed the burly deer’s heart, and ripped it out of the dying bastard’s chest cavity with ease.

After the body fell, the blood covered mech crushed the still beating heart in his fist, and threw away the squished remains.

Megatron turned to the barricade that blocked the world from entry to the town, and aimed his fusion cannon at it, powered it up, and fired a single shot.

BANG! KABOOM!

The barricade got destroyed into thousands of pieces that flew through the smoke-filled air, and Megatron walked through at a slow pace, his optics looking around the decrepit town with disgust, seeing the hanging bodies of gutted ponies, mares and stallions alike.

What has got to him even worse though, was the small children hung by their necks with thick rope, long since asphyxiated and without a shred of clothing…

After staring up at the pale bodies above him for a few moments, contemplating what to do..

Before an idea that made his chassis lightly shudder with disgust…

But he had no choice, he can’t take on the town alone...

Megatron’s chassis began glowing a deep purple, the Dark Energon getting to work as both of his servos glowed and he aimed at the bodies, a look of remorse on his faceplate for what he was about to do.

" Forgive me… For if I join the Pit on this planet, when it is my time for what I’m about to do, rest in peace. Let your bodies avenge your unfortunate demise and tear the Caribou asunder…” He whispered, before firing dark purple bolts of lightning…

The bolts impacted the bodies, and they begin glowing the same color as Dark Energon, their bodies shaking and spasming.

Then their soulless eyes opened, glowing as violet as Megatron’s under the effect of Dark Energon.

The bodies of the ponies fell to the ground, before slowly crawling to their feet, groaning and screeching in hungry tones.

Megatron watched as the reanimated dead of mutilated ponies stumble deeper into the inner parts of town, craving to kill their Caribou captors, rapers, and murderers…

Before he turned his attention to a small signal being pinged off his sensors, causing his optics to land on a fortress in the middle of town, covered in blood and guys of all sizes, a couple of skeletons hanging like the fresh bodies he reanimated, gutted and hung.

Megatron optics narrowed and gritted his denta as he heard mares and fillies alike scream in pain…

His red optics gleaming bright, made his way through the town at a fast pace and aimed his fusion cannon at the large barricaded front doors of the fortress...

The doors exploded from the blast of energy Megatron made and he stomped inside, activating his blade and slashed his way through the small 5 person crowd of Caribou that were torturing the ponies with sadistic tendencies and sexual methods that made Megatron not feel sorry for their deaths.

He actually took GREAT pleasure in disposing of such filth…

He grabbed the last Caribou soldier that was about to rape a young orange coated Pegasus filly with one arm and smashed him against the wall.

The mech growled angrily and crushed the organic’s weak skull to a pulp, popping out the eyeballs and blood coating his clawed servo…

He saw that the ponies in the look up at him in reverence, including the small Pegasus filly he just saved, her clothes halfway torn to nothing, but somehow keeping her decency.

Megatron looked around the bloodied room, and said,

" Do not fear, your salvation is at hand. It is your time to escape this accursed place and flee to the forest, there will be help waiting for you deep in its clutches.” He then looked back to the filly, who was joined by three more.

A white one that had a two tone colored mane that wore a tattered and dirty purple dress, a yellow one with a red mane and bow wearing ripped overalls and a red undershirt that was untucked which somewhat reminded him of one earth pony hanging around Twilight, and a midnight black one with a torn up white shirt that had a purple shield logo on the center and a purple skirt that had turquoise eyes like Chrysalis…

All four fillies were staring up at him with gratefulness and confusion mixed with awe, before the black coated filly said,

" What is your name, metal Titan?” She asked in a tone that made him think back to Princess Luna.

Perhaps she is a relative? He thought, before replying.

" I… Am Megatron. A warrior that seeks to wipe out these Caribou from existence and to save anyone I can that could help our cause! When you escape this place, there is a haven you must seek deep in the Everfree Forest; you will be safe there.”

He heard more screams of Caribou dying getting closer, and then looked back to the 4,

" Go… I will join up with you when this is over, and this festered town is torn asunder...” He said, his optics staring directly at the filly who looked to be royalty, despite the casual attire.

It was quiet for a few moments, interrupted by the sound of his TerrorPonies below the fortress tearing and killing the Caribou that killed them in a brutal manner…

Then, the black coated filly dipped her head in respect, and the group vacated the room after being ordered by her to grab blunt weapons like torn metal chair legs and daggers that got scattered from Megatron’s… Entrance.

After the room was empty, Megatron aimed and fired his fusion cannon at the empty back wall of the room and transformed into the open air as he jumped out a running pace.

He looked down onto the burning town as his TerrorPonies decimated the Caribou soldiers and slavers at an immense pace, their fresh corpses joining the growing army at an extremely fast pace.

His work was done after half an hour of watching the Carnage, he then commanded his pony half of the undead army to sleep in peace, and their moaning and groaning corpses collapsed to the ground, dead once again.

The Caribou undead turned into ash, screeching in agony...

Megatron veered his jet around and broke the sound barrier at Mach 1 to the forest.

He saw the large group of former prisoners journeying through the forest, and decelerated until he was above the group.

He transformed in front of the group when he got close enough to the ground, causing the Ponies to jump and aim their primitive weapons at him for a moment, until they relaxed as they saw it was him.

He didn’t say anything as he travelled alongside the group that mostly consisted of fillies and colts, and a few mares and stallions that weren’t corrupted.

The only thought on his processor was, What was Celestia gonna say about this? And what’s next?...

The sun’s rays were peeking through the dense forestry as Tempest stood outside the entrance of the base, right behind the barrier, her cold eyes narrowed as the wards alerted her and the guards mares of a large group coming towards their base…

They set up positions behind the barrier as well as some cover in case it was an attack from the Caribou…

The foliage moved and the sounds of loud footsteps echoed across the large open field between them and the Everfree Forest...

Coming out of the forest was Megatron, much to their relief; and behind him was a crowd of pony refugees that she recognized from Ponyville, and then her attention turned to the sight of movement from Megatron, who stood still in the middle of the field to let the smaller organics get to safety, and her eyes widened on the small black coated and raggedly clothed filly sitting on the mech’s shoulder plating.

It was Nyx! Princess Twilight’s adopted daughter, and she was alive!

She, like everypony else, thought that the children of Ponyville were publicly executed, Nyx included, by King Dainn himself.

But the people that told her and the rest of the base didn’t have physical evidence, nor a way to prove that he/she was there during said ‘Execution’

But they were wrong, SHE was wrong, at the sight of the filly smiling tiredly down at her with her dragon eyes gleaming with happiness…

The four Alicorn Princesses were in the castle War Room, huddling over a map of Equestria to think of battle plans to attack the Caribou strongholds in major towns and cities…

When the door that was sealed shut exploded open, causing everypony in there to jump and look at who came in.

It was Megatron and Soundwave in their 7 & 6 ft forms, and Nyx, who was peeking out from behind Megatron’s pede with curiosity, then recognition as she locked her turquoise dragon eyes with Twilight’s shocked ones.

It was silent for a moment, before the Alicorn filly jumped out from behind Megatron.

“ MOMMY!” She shouted out, sprinting to the lavender Alicorn as fast as possible with a large smile on her face.

Twilight discreetly glanced at the Changeling disguise detector located above the doorway behind Megatron’s helm, and saw it wasn’t changing to its alert color…

Relieved and very happy, Twilight opened her forehooves wide as Nyx came barreling into her, wrapping her little hooves around her barrel tightly.

Megatron watched with a slight smile, his spark warmed by the sight of such a reunion between family…

The other Princesses were smiling widely as they felt relief that Nyx was alive and not dead…

All in all… it was a happy ending…
