Doctor Borrowman, you are waited in Sector Five, Doctor Borrowman, you are waited in Sector Five.
Henry, instantly opened his eyes as the voice echoed loudly in his room. It was 4:00 am, the weahter was dark, probably most of the staff was sleeping. After strecthing out and giving a wide yawn, he stood up to change his clothes. "Geez what problem do you have with time? Can't I just sleep for a little while?" After changing clothes, he headed to the sector five, to see why they wanted him to check. "It better be important..."
He stopped in front of the metal door and put his hand on the scanner right next to entrance. As the green light scanned his hand whole, he couldn't help but gave another yawn. "I should have gotten a coffee."
Welcome. Doctor. Henry Borrowman.
He entered without hesitation as the door opened quickly. Heading to his mates which were busy with monitors and reports in front of them. He gave another loud yawn, caused the two to turn to him.
"Look who has arrived! Good morning sunshine." said Jay. "Slept well?"
"Ah shut up Jay. He already is in a mess, don't you annoy him more." it was Amber who silenced him.
"Nah I am..." he was cut off by a yawn "totally fine. I can take it."
Amber handed him a cup of coffee, the only thing that could keep everyone in this place refreshed "Here, take a sip."
Henry took the coffee and drinked in one gulp, without even minding how hot it was. "Thanks. I needed that." As he gave the cup back, he stretched out again and with a shiver, he gained his full consciousness. "So guys, what is the situation?"
Jay turned to him with his spinning chair "The fluctuations."
"Agh again? You really woke me up in fucking four am just to show me that shit again? Seriously?" He pinched the bottom of his eyes.
"No Henry. This is different." Amber held the monitor and got in front of his face. "Take a look at it. The waves were getting more dense than before." She put her finger on the monitor to show "When they first appeared, seven months ago, they were moving randomly. But now, it seems like they are gathering... to somewhere."
This got Henry's attention. "So... you really woke me up for something important." He then turned to Jay, who was waiting for his response "This is really unexcpected from YOU Jay!" he laughed at his own joke.
"Ha ha. Well unlike you, I actually was searching for something and good news is..." he turned to his monitor and pointed at the map on the screen. "I found what I wanted!"
Henry raised a brow "And it is?"
Jay gave a deadpan expression "The location. The location of the density that is forming by these fluctuations! What can it ever be something else if I am showing you a map?"
"Anyways, enough with talking." Amber intervened. "So Jay, show me and Henry what you found will you?"
"Well then, I have observed the movements of these fluctuations, where they form and where they end. They are just like chambers that grow around the globe and shrink in a certain place. And that place is..." Map on the monitor zoomed in to island of Britain, to Wiltshire. "...Stonehenge?"
Henry looked at Amber, then Jay "Stonehenge huh? That is really interesting..." He than stepped back and eyed the other monitor again "Have you learned what causes it yet?"
"We have given the records to the Sector Four but nothing came out." Jay closed the monitor.
"Alright then, we will wait for Sector Four to get the results and keep working on this formation." Henry pointed out. "But don't mention it to someone else. From now on it's only between Sector Four and Five."
"Okay! Cool." they replied.
"Now then, lets go back to sleep and in the morning we'll keep investigating" He then turned around to get out as Jay and Amber followed him.
Equestria, Canterlot, 15th Day of Asterial Era, 1019
The grand ruler of Equestria entered the room with slow steps, not wanting to distract her fellow student. Their efforts to reach this new world was so important. This planet they call "Earth" was dying. It was screaming for help, she could hear it, she could sense it...
"I see you're working really hard as always, my little pony?" she said with a soft tone.
In spite of her soft voice, Twilight jumped from where she was sitting and turned to her teacher with a thrill "Princess Asteria?" She quickly pulled herself together and calmed down "I didn't hear you coming."
Asteria chuckled at her reaction "It's quite alright Twilight. I actually didn't want to disturb you." she got closer to table Twilight was working on. "So my faithful student, what news do you have for me today?"
Twilight used her magic grip to organize her notes. "I have good news your highness, the portal to Earth is almost ready." With the help of my friends and the mages you have here in palace, we have concretized the place of the portal. It will take some time for it to open completely and stablize itself." She then pulled out a paper from her notes and gave it to princess. "It will take around, seventy two hours to be ready"
A warm smile formed on Asteria's face. "Very good Twilight. And the potion?"
Twilight checked her notes again "The potion seems to be ready either your highness. With the effect of it, not only the anatomy of the life form but it's attitudes and behaviour will completely change too. And they will be converted to new-born ponies successfully."
The smile on Asteria's muzzle grew bigger. "Fascinating! Absolutely fantastic!" She headed back to the door with excitement. "Twilight, my dear student, you've done an excellent job! You have totally deserved to rest."
"Rest? Rest! In a time like this? There is no way for me to rest when we're so close to our goal!" Twilight protested.
"Twilight, there are almost three days until the gate opens. And right now you should rest." She then turned back to Twilight "And don't forget to-" she was cut off by a snoring came from Twilight. Princess just rolled her eyes with a smirk and left the room, closing the door from behind quietly.
The Alicorn gazed out of the window as she continued the way to her room. The stars were lighting, reaming the night sky one by one; so small but so bright at the same time. And then there it was: Th great light of the night time: Moon. The moon that her own sister was remaining on.
"Oh Luna, I wish you could see what I am about to achieve..."
She finally arrived to her room, got inside and locked the door behind.
