Chapter 1: The Arrival into The EQUESTRIAN NEXUS!

I was just sailing through the sky in the Equestrian Alola region for 10 minutes before my ship was pulled in through a portal.

“Oh this can’t be good!” I said, beginning to worry. My ship was tossed into water a minute later. I looked around and saw we were in a harbor, near a large city, it looked like New York, only different, instead of just one Statue of Liberty, it was multiple statues, each one a species only found in Equestria, except for one, a normal Statue of Liberty, which confused me.

“Ok you guys! status report! Where are we?” I asked my clones.

“We don’t know sir! We’ve already taken readings, it seems we are in a place that holds both the Equestrian world and the human world!” said one of my clones.

“Explain” I said.

“Well, compared to other Equestrian worlds part of the whole MLP multiverse, this one stands out, it’s like the land of the lost here!” said the clone.

“If that’s so, we shall call it, THE EQUESTRIAN NEXUS! I think it has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?”I said to my crew, causing them to cheer. I returned my Pokémon to their Pokéballs and called all my clones back to myself. I snapped my fingers and dropped anchor, then I went into my cabin. As I came through the doors, I was greeted with a beautiful sight, the room was decorated perfectly to suit my needs.Towards the back of the cabin towards the window was a desk with a chair fitted with velvet, on the desk were maps, and charts that laid messily on it to my left was a kind of work station with a few gadgets laying around, and unfinished projects, the floor was lined with a fur rug from various creatures such as manticores, finally to the right was my hammock made of fine silkworm silk.

I checked my left hand and found a new Pokéball, labeled Dhelmise. ‘A new one? Author, I’m beginning to think you’re trying to spoil me’
I checked my gauntlet and found that it had a z-stone on it. “Huh, ok now he’s just showing off” I said as I checked my pockets, and found z-crystals: psychium z, buginium z, firium z, darkinium z, dragonium z, waterium z, electrium z, ghostium z, steelium z, poisonium z, grassium z, fightinium z, flyinium z, normalium z, groundium z, fairium z, icium z, and rockium z.

“I can use all these for my Pokémon, they will definitely come in handy, hopefully I can make the right poses so the moves work” I said, changing into pajamas. I brought out all my Pokémon: Mewtwo, Araidos, Garchomp, Genesect, Joltik, Darkrai, Marshadow, houndoom, and Dhelmise.

“Alright everyone, time for bed!” I said getting into a hammock. I got comfortable and went to sleep.

—The Next Day—

I got out of bed and got dressed, I let my Pokémon sleep more as I walked to the middle mast and climbed up to the crow’s nest. ‘After a few hours of updates and my gauntlet should have info on what I should expect in this world’

I checked records of recent events. “Ok, it seems this world is going to follow the show’s timeline, Twilight is three years away from moving to Ponyville, and Nightmare Moon will be on her way as scheduled, this world is more of a melting pot than any other world, so I should be able to walk around and not get any odd stares, and.... oh look my ship is on the news, oh that’s not good, better take the flag down, Celestia might wanna know what a giant Man-of-war with a pirate flag, and an almost ridiculous amount of weapons, is doing in the harbor” I said, thinking out loud. I brought down the flag and looked around. I lowered my goggles onto my eyes and pulled up my hood. “Everyone stay here, I’m gonna do a quick look around!” I said climbing up to the top of the pole. I then stood on top of the pole with my hands clasped behind my back.

I then began looking around, I saw Celestia was on her way. “Just as I expected, she’s coming to check this out herself” I said, making myself invisible by vibrating faster than her eyes could see. She got closer and began to circle the ship. I jumped down to the deck and landed without a sound. I made my way to the steering wheel and walked past it to the stern, and leaned back on the railing and stopped being invisible and magicked up a large jug of moonshine. Celestia saw me and came down to land a few feet away. I brought my large jug of moonshine to my lips and kept drinking.

“Excuse me-“ began Celestia before I held up a finger telling her to wait. I brought down the jug and allowed her to continue. “Where is-“ She began again before I took another drink and caused her to stop again. Every time I finished she began trying to speak again and I took another drink, I enjoyed agitating her, then her left eye began to twitch. I stopped drinking then she began to speak again but I brought the jug up again and was about to take another drink before she used her magic to toss my jug into the ocean. I used my magic to bring it back before it got too far.

I then proceeded to take another drink. Then she took my jug and smashed it onto the ground. “Are you the captain of this ship!?!” she asked/yelled.

“Who wants to know?” I asked, giving her a frown.

“I am Princess Celestia, ruler of Equestria, is this ship yours or not!?!” she said annoyed.

“Yeah this is my ship, it’s called THE HARBINGER, and I am its captain, Mamoru Shinigami, or as most call me, The Dark One” I said pulling down my hood and bringing up my goggles.

“What exactly are your intentions towards the citizens of this city” asked Celestia as she gestured a hoof towards the city. I looked in the same direction, then looked back at her.

“I was just going to stay here and relax, a bit before I set sail for….” I said trailing off. She looked at me in confusion.

“Where?” She asked.

“I dunno, I haven’t thought that far ahead” I said, giving her a grin, which unnerved her.

“Well you can’t stay here, you’re scaring my subjects” she said. I looked around and saw that ponies along the shores, docks, and boardwalks were staring in fear.

“Fine, but I’m gonna be in canterlot in a few years, so I hope I can get a warm reception” I said, walking to the anchor.

“I’ll see what I can do, wait how can you get this ship to Canterlot? It’s on a mountain” said Celestia. I began raising the anchor with my bare hands. I climbed up the masts and released every sail one by one and allowed them all to catch the wind. I climbed down as the ship began to move. I made my way to the steering wheel and turned the ship away from the city. The ship began picking up speed as it began to rise into the sky.

“Does that answer your question?” I asked with a smirk.

“You’re ship can fly?” asked Celestia, amazed.

“Of course, it wouldn't be cool if it didn’t fly, now time to send you home” I said, snapping my fingers, then Celestia disappeared and reappeared in her throne room, on the ceiling. She looked down and fell to the ground with a THUD.

“That should be fun, now for us” I said as I snapped my fingers, teleported us above the dark side of the moon, and put up a special shield so my Pokémon can breathe.

I looked down at the moon, and could see the mare in the moon. “Soon Nightmare, you will be free, and as soon as you fail, you will be MINE!” I said, clenching my fist at the end. “But for now, I must wait, until then, I should probably keep myself busy” I said snapping my fingers and magicking up a forge.

I made a mold for a new weapon, a drill gauntlet. I made 3 segment parts for each quarter of the drill bit, so they could function as fingers. I made the gauntlet part and put together the high speed electric motor, so the drill could spin fast. I began filling the drill molds with tungsten. I then left them in the furnace, which was heated by a miniaturized red giant star. I continued with the gauntlet part and put together a few small linear actuators. I checked on the tungsten drill fingers, they were finished, I took them out and broke the molds.

I put together the drill finger segments piece by piece, and installed the linear actuators. I made a few circuits to get all the parts to work, I synced them up with my arm the same way as a robotic prosthetic limb. Each finger was 2 &1/2 feet long, the gauntlet part was at least 1 foot long,making it at least 3 &1/2 feet long altogether.

I put it on and it went up to my elbow. I turned it on and tested it out. My hand was in a special chamber for my hand to fit when the gauntlet’s drill and gripping claw functions were in use. I opened my hand and the drill fingers mimicked my action. I pointed an index finger and the drill finger did the same. I made a fist, it made a fist. I sent a signal for the fingers to come together for the drilling mode. They came together with a loud clang.

I sent a signal for the drill to spin, and it spun, fast. I stopped the drill and had the fingers come apart. The whole hand began spinning and emitting purple energy, I aimed for a passing space rock and fired. Immediately a purple beam shot at the rock and blew it to bits.

The drill hand stopped spinning and I retracted them into the gauntlet. As I did that my hand came out of the chamber.

I took off the gauntlet and magicked up some pure beskar and began working on adding the beskar onto the drill and gauntlet as plating, in case of blaster/magic fire and lightsabers. Anything is possible. I even reverse engineered Jacob Frye's hidden blade gauntlet and made a new one out of beskar, and destroyed the old one after uploading all the software and putting the Z stone onto the new one, along with a small crossbow like Arno dorian’s phantom blade. I painted both the drill gauntlet and my assassin's creed gauntlet jet black.

I put them both back on. I admired my work and smiled a big sharp toothed cheshire grin. “Oh yeah” I said letting my eyes go to their normal glowing green iris and black sclera. I looked at the moon below and smiled even more. “Equestrian nexus, get ready for Mamoru Shinigami, cuz I’m coming at you with the full force of a Geostorm’s worth of category 5 hurricanes!” I said laughing maniacally.
