[PONYTYPE] {CONVERSION PROJECT}

Ezekiel ducks down and speeds towards Showdown. Suddenly, Showdown finds Ezekiel right in front of him, preparing an attack. Showdown swings his sword to block Ezekiel's hand, then prepares to strike. He swings his sword thrice, but Ezekiel blocks via grabbing the hilt of the blade. "Gotcha bitch!" Ezekiel shouted.

Ezekiel attempts a punch to Showdown's head, but Showdown blocks it with his sword. Ezekiel then dashes by Showdown, ending up behind him. He backhands Showdown in the back of the head, causing him to flinch and stumble. Showdown turns around to face Ezekiel before swinging his sword again. Ezekiel dodges the blade in seemingly instantaneous movements before attempting to punch Showdown again. However, Showdown ducks underneath the punch and pushes Ezekiel away with telekinesis. Ezekiel slides across the ground before coming to a halt.

Ezekiel then rushes to Showdown again. This time, Showdown anticipates it and swings his sword to block Ezekiel's attack again. However, Ezekiel gets behind him again and punches him in the back of the head. The force of the blow dents the ponies’ helmet as well as sends him back across the ground. Showdown gets back on his hooves. "Come on, rent-a-cop, show me ya moves!" Ezekiel taunted.

Ezekiel then runs towards Showdown in an attempt to end the match right then and there, but before he can pierce Showdown's suit, the pony commander uses telekinesis to push Ezekiel away. Ezekiel backflips while in the air and lands back on the ground cleanly. Showdown then walks up to Ezekiel, sword drawn. Ezekiel draws his arm and prepares to deliver a swipe to Showdown's helmet, but Showdown blocks with his own arm, withdrawing from recoil, and holding Ezekiel up off the ground with magic. Ezekiel begins to struggle against the ponies' grip. "Surrender, you stand no chance of victory! Ever since the betrayal of Princess Twilight, we've exceeded past the pathetic Royal Guard and have become the Royal Army, I'd be so bold as to say I could take the Elements of Harmony single hooved!" Showdown shouted. Ezekiel flinched from the sheer volume of Showdown's voice.

"Dude, I am two feet away from you and nobody is around, there is no need to shout whatsoever. Also, your incapable of killing me," Ezekiel replied, he then had an idea. Ezekiel began to inhale VERY deeply, Showdown stared in confusion, until Ezekiel closed his mouth tightly before letting out a thundering, earsplitting, and ground shaking scream. Showdown's irises glaze over his pupils as his eardrums popped like blood-filled water balloons. Showdown stumbled back and bellowed in pain as his ears bled. His telekinetic grip on Ezekiel disappeared at the same time.

Ezekiel bashes Showdown three times, burying them into the ground. He then kicks their head twice. The first one breaks Shadown's lower muzzle, and the second one launches Showdown's head off like a football. "Fatality! Ezekiel wins!" Ezekiel announced to no one. Ezekiel looked at Showdown's corpse and grabbed it with his hands,

Ezekiel stopped smiling as the Blacklight virus reacted differently to Showdown's body than it did with the others. First off it started playing an important memory from Showdown's mind, mainly the thing about the Elements of Harmony he mentioned before he was killed.

It was of Beaker and Showdown getting ready to perform another potion test. Beaker looked at Showdown and asked, "Hey, Showdown, do you know what happened to the Mane 6? I ask because the guards were telling rumors about what happened to them."

Showdown answered blankly, "Princess Twilight didn't see eye to eye with the Princess Sisters' goal of converting the humans into ponies. In fact, she and the rest of the Mane 6 were against this, even going so far as to declare war, if you believe the princesses say. But on the day of the battle, all 6 of the Mane 6 had vanished, no trace of them. No magic hiding them from plain sight, as if they had gone up in smoke. As for what happened then, two theories circle, one being forced upon ponies to forget the other."

"What are they?" Beaker asked as he readied a new potion.

"The first and forced on theory is that Twilight had used a spell to teleport herself and the Mane 6 somewhere the Princess Sisters could never reach. As for the other..." Showdown let out a deep sigh, "They're working with the human that escaped CPPTS-X to stop the princess sisters, but this has yet to be proven. Yet, so has the former."

Ezekiel came back from the flashback. Then the second reaction to Showdown's corpse came, the Blacklight's tendrils flowed through and over his body, stopping at his hand. Ezekiel's hand then glowed a mystical aura before a demonic red katana made of spiny red and black tendrils wrapped around a red blade of energy in the middle.

Ezekiel inspected the blade before he started to twirl his new sword around. He then quickly slashing in front of himself 4 times before he slashed down with both hands. This was followed by him swinging the sword in an upward rising motion, then Ezekiel threw the sword and it came back like a boomerang. Ezekiel then summoned what looked to be a blunt sword made of the same energy as the sword's center. Ezekiel then began spinning it around like a twirling baton. He then let loose a flurry of blows with the blunt sword and ended with a cleaving blow with the actual blade. Ezekiel finished his show by slashing at the area before him with tremendous speed, cleaving the air itself and leaving an afterimage behind. "I am totally going to fuck around with this thing! Probably cut my own arm off doing so!" Ezekiel said with a bit of glee in his voice.

"Hot damn, that was a Commander of the Royal Army, I would want to fuck with you right now." Stated something behind Ezekiel. He turned around and grabbed the neck of the pony that killed Beaker. They were a pegasus with a blond main and tail, a light brown coat and wings, and a picture of a burning star. He wore a red baseball cap and a red sweater vest. He quickly sputtered out as Ezekiel held up his new sword to his throat, "Woah! Woah! Woah! I'm on your side! I'm a human!"

Ezekiel recalled something about a human in Equestria that escaped captivity, but he didn't know what this human turned pony looked like, "How do I know you're not just lying to me?!"

"You're from New York as well so... The number 1 of the New York Yankees was Billy Martin."

"I don't know sports!" Ezekiel retorted.

"The top three pizza toppings are pepperoni, sausage, and mushrooms."

"Everyone knows that!"

".... Get outta here." The pony replied with a New Yorker accent.

"Okay," Ezekiel replied before dropping the pony.

He rubbed his neck and replied, "Well, that's one way to greet somepony. I'm Terry, I'm from New York too. Gotta say it's great to see some of my own species that isn't a zombified pony! And a Blacklight Virus carrier no less!"

"Ezekiel. Can you really call me of the same species? Since your a pony and all." Ezekiel replied before realizing what Terry just mentioned. "Wait, what?"

"Yeah, you got a point there. And yes, I know what you're infected with, I was around during the first outbreak of it and saw Alex Mercer in action. Even watch. Can't believe he infected others, makes me wish I didn't get teleported here even more." Terry explained. He then pulled out a rune stone and continued, "But enough of that, I need to get you to to the others! This will take us there via teleportation, just need to ready it."

"Okay, but what about them?" Ezekiel asked, pointing to an approaching army of Royal Army ponies.

"Oh, crap... U-uh... Good thing Twilight made these quick to turn on!" Terry exclaimed before opening a portal with the rune. Ezekiel let out a quick laugh from the slight innuendo Terry made. Terry and Ezekiel jumped into the portal as the Royal Army closed in.

"After them!" One of the ponies yelled, then a jar with an odd cork and what looked like a cartoonish hurricane inside. Upon sight of it the Royal Army ponies quickly ran in the other direction, "It's a Hurrinade!! Get back! Get back!" One of the ponies yelled. Then the cork popped off and the jar exploded into a massive hurricane, destroying the rune along with the surrounding area. As the soldier ponies recovered, one of them stated with a hint of dread in his voice, "Oh, the princesses aren't going to be happy about this..."

Terry and Ezekiel landed on a wide-open rocky mountainside. The portal closed behind them and Ezekiel asked, "Why are we here? It's a cliffside in the middle of- Where'd you go?" Ezekiel took a quick look around to find Terry was no longer around.

Then Terry's hoof popped out of the rock wall, waving him to come forward before pulling back into in. Ezekiel walked in to see the wall was fake, and there was a small gathering of about 8 scrap houses with another scrap building in the center. "You know, out of everything that's happened to me today, I'd say this is the second strangest thing that's happened so far in my life."

"What was the first?" Terry asked.

"Trying to use weed, coke, meth, and booze at the same time. I woke up on top of the empire state building in the nude. This was before I became a Blacklight Carrier." Ezekiel explained. Then Ezekiel spotted 7 ponies and a lizard walking toward them.

An Alicorn mare with a dark purple mane and tail with a pink stripe, a lavender coat, horn, and wings, and a tattoo of a 6 pointed star with smaller white stars on her flank.

A normal pony mare with a long sandy blonde mane and tail, an orange coat, and a tattoo of 3 apples on her flank.

A Unicorn mare with an elegant deep purple mane and tail, a snow-white coat and horn, and a tattoo of 3 diamonds on her flank.

A Pegasus mare with a short rainbow mane and tail, a cyan coat and wings, and a tattoo of a cloud with a rainbow lightning bolt on her flank.

A normal pony mare with a curly deep pink mane and tail, a pink coat, and a tattoo of a blue balloon and two yellow balloons on her flank.

A Pegasus mare with a light pink mane and tail, a butter yellow coat, and a tattoo of 3 pink butterflies on her flank.

A unicorn with a lilac coat, dark blue eyes, purple with light green lining mane, and a tattoo of a purple and white star with two blue glimmering streams.

And the lizard was purple with green scales on his back and a round belly.

Ezekiel drew his sword and held it above his shoulder. "So they with you or I'm about it have something to eat?"

The rainbow-haired one retorted, "Try it creep, see what happens!"

Terry quickly butted in, "Rainbow, this guy killed an entire Conversion Potion Site's worth of Royal Army ponies and a Commander. He's basically an immortal superhuman and that sword is a magical by-product of what happens when you mix a living calamity virus with magic from a commander's corpse. Shut your mouth, before you get in trouble and get killed." Rainbow grumbled before backing down as the others stared with awe and shock, Terry then continued, "Girls and boy, this is Ezekiel. Ezekiel this is Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Starlight Glimmer, and Spike the dragon."

"Greetings! We're the Elements of Resistance, there are more of us but for now, you need to be filled in on the situation," Twilight states.

"Just looking at makes me think I'm going to hear a bunch of words I've never heard of and will immediately forget," Ezekiel replied with a blank stare.

"Dang, you too?" Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Terry replied.

The group of ponies and one Blacklight carrier walked toward the center building, as they did Terry asked Ezekiel, "You know, for someone trapped in a world that basically wants you dead or pony. You're very calm. How?"

"Two things, I'm naturally nonchalant, I'm not going to freak out over most, if any, situation. I'll just accept it and move on. Second..." Ezekiel took a bag of pot from his jacket. "Weed."

"You humans are so weird," Starlight stated.

"Damn right," Ezekiel and Terry replied as they entered the center building.

'I feel like I forgot something important... Well if it was that important I wouldn't have forgotten it.' Terry thought.

Elsewhere, in a massive castle on a mountainside, a roar of pure rage echoed through the structure followed by an explosion. Two ponies ran into the main hall and came out with a charred corpse of a guard pony. "Somepony find that fucking human, kill it, and make sure it's dead this time!" Screamed an alicorn with magenta eyes, a four-colored mane, those colors being a light deep blue, a light turquoise, a very light cobalt blue, and a pale pink, and a white coat, wearing gold jewelry and shoes. She had a hoof standing on the broken remains of the recording rune from CPPTS-Z. She rubbed her temples as a headache set in, "And get me a ginger ale and an aspirin..."

Another alicorn with cyan eyes, a sapphire blue mane with grayish Persian blue, and a dark blue coat, with silver shoes and black metal jewelry. Walked up to her and reassured her, "Sister you mustn't get so heated. This human stands no chance. The human race shall accept our conversion, once we complete it,"

"Yes... Yes... But as of right now, our priority is finding those two humans, one is a major threat to all ponies, and the other bears the perfect conversion potion. Where is my aspirin!" The mare roared.
