(3rd person)

Aboard the mothership
Pox's lab

CC was more then a little concerned as he looked at pox who was currently laughing as he worked on his latest project.

"Pox... We need to have a talk about your insistence on modifying that... 'Tool' you seem proud of." CC said as he looked over the workshop. The toxic green glow that covered everything emanating from the weapon Pox was tinkering with.

"Crypto please! I'm in the middle of a very sensitive procedure!" He shouted more then spoke as he finished pulling at a piece of stringy green goo.

Looking over the table he could see the Orthodox anal prob. A weapon that in theory has a lot of promising implications like extracting DNA or Fatally killing others with sever bowel syndrome. But in practice ok it's used as a gimmick gun to make the ones shooting it laugh as they're opponents cry and cover they're bottom.

Crypto was about to continue talking when 138 walked in. "Commander! Urgent message coming in on the bridge. It's one of our infiltration teams!" He said clearly caught off guard by the news.

CC shot up and rushed out the door shouting as he went. "We'll finish this later pox!"

Running down the halls of the mothership, passing drones, security, and working engineers alike. CC shot like a bat outta hell with all the speed he could muster. 138 using his jump pack to keep up with him. As he finally approached the bridge doors he slowed down enough to not slam into the metal and to allow its automatic opening function to kick in. Once the door opened CC walked in with 138 beside him.

"Ah! Commander at last you arrived! We've got a transmission request from our infiltrator, located in the village near our planned invasion camp." Said the communication officer. A short and pudgy Furon by the name of Krang.

Giving a stiff nod the the officer a large holo projection of Rota Viral 145 appears, the projection shows her upper half of her body and head allowing her to give The Commander a proper salute. "Commander! I have urgent news and findings out the native species of this planet!" Hearing her voice echo from the projection.

"Excellent! Let me hear everything you've seen and been through starting from the beginning." He said as he folded his arms over his chest.

'WHY ARE THEY SO NICE TO ME!' I thought as I was given a second slice of this delicious apple pie. I was currently sitting at the apple family dinner table eating with Apple Bloom, Big Mac, and Granny Smith.

Upon my arrival this family has gone above and beyond to make me feel at easy and at home. And they have been genuinely concerned for me! Everytime I've read they're thoughts they only ever seem concerned for my well being and safety. Promising to themselves to make me feel nothing but genuine kindness here!

So far my cover stories have helped clear me of suspicion. I'm a runaway teen who lost her memory in a extremely dangerous magical forest. Simple, easy to remember, and limitless fall back options if suspicion raises.

I was getting close with Apple Bloom who seemed the most interested in me and was constantly wondering if I would be her friend.

My thoughts were interrupted when the front door opened to revile a woman with tanned orange skin and long blond hair. Wearing a rather interesting hat upon her head. "Woo Nelly! You guys aren't gonna believe what Twi and the others did for me today! We was out by the river when Fluttershy saw a-" what ever she was going to say stopped dead in her throat as she looked at me. Her eyes went wide and her hair seemed to stand on end as her gaze lingered on me.

"Oh Applejack! This here poor girl was found out in the everfree by Apple Bloom and 'er friends! Poor thing lost her memory..." Granny Smith said as she introduced me.

"H-Hello ma'am. I-I'm Mending Seeker." I said bowling my head slightly. Such actions are commonly a sign of respect in other planets cultures.

Applejack seemed to raise her eye brow at me and nod slowly. "Is that right? Well Mending Seeker. Welcome to the apple House and family farm. Hope y'all like it here." Though what she said sounded pleasant it was with a tone that make me uneasy 'why is she suspicious of me?' I thought to myself as she walked over sitting beside me.

"So Mending... Where are you from? Can you recall anything specific?" She asked. Oh great Archvoodle she was interrogating me!

"Umm well... I just remembered my name and... I remember I was walking around the forest then... I guess I hit my head or something hit me because I don't know anything past that." There were definitely flaws in my story but she shouldn't have reason to doubt me. The others certainly don't!

My story only made her squint her eyes more at me and it's then I noticed something. 'wait... Why are the others suddenly looking at me like that.' every other member of the family was squinting they're eyes at me too. Apart from Granny Smith who only seemed more intrigued then anything.

Apple Bloom was leaning in closer and Big Mac was crossing his arms now. Applejack was tapping her fingers against the table and put her other arm around my chairs shoulders leaning in more.

"So why are you lying to me Sugercube?" What.... How?! I'm compromised! They'll kill me! They must be more dangerous than I thought! I'm so screwed!

"Alright Applejack... That's enough. Your scaring the poor dear." Granny suddenly said before sipping her tea and leaning back some. The others all leaned back some but didn't relax one bit.

"Your all asking her the wrong questions. Mending dear look at me and answer honestly." I didn't dare disobey her now. Looking at her I could feel the others staring at me and it was making me more uncomfortable by the second.

She sipped again before showing me a kinda smile again. "Are y'all here to hurt this family or anyone in town" that wasn't a mission objective and honestly i didn't see a reason to hurt them, they were so kind in the begining.

"No..." Hearing me say that seemed to relax Applejack and then the other two. Granny just smiled and continued. "Are y'all here to cause trouble?"

Again not a objective. We more then anything are just here to rescue 133 and find out what's happened to him. The invasion was more pox's idea then the commander. Still hard to answer but I'll continue being honest for now. My life might depend on it.

"I-I... Not really.... We... We are looking for someone... Lost from us." I answered. Again they relaxed but hearing the 'We' clearly set them off somehow.

"Are y'all changelings?!" Applejack suddenly shouted causing me to jump.

"What's a changeling?!" I asked in a panic Causing her and everyone else to freeze at the table. I get the sense some how I made it more awkward and suspicious at the same time.

"Who or what are you then..." Apple Bloom asked and I sighed. I wasn't supposed to make first contact but...

Without another word I stood up from the table and took a step away. No one rushed to stop me or hurt me so I took this chance. "M-my real name is Rota... Rota Viral... And in the common sense of the word... I'm a alien."

My words left an impact. At first they looked at me with smirks and raised eye brows... Till they looked at Applejack, who was looking at me with wide eyes and a jaw on the floor. It was in that moment that solidified a theory I had that Applejack could see through my lies naturally somehow and the others knew it. Because they all soon mimicked her face.

I let them gradually come to terms they have a real alien in they're dinning room before doing anything else. When Applejack came to she seemed weary of me but not hostile. "So... You are here looking for someone? A friend?"

"Sorta... His name is Crypto 133... He was sent here a few years ago to search your planet for a strange energy reading... But we never heard from him... We think he's still here stranded or captured... We found traces of him nearby and I was sent to learn of your people. I don't think my commander has plans to harm anyone unless 133 is harmed or dead... He looks at him and all cryptos like little brothers. It would be a great loss to him." I said, this confession seems to have sparked sympathy with the family and Applejack nodded

"I reckon I would be crossed too if someone took Big Mac or Apple Bloom from me too... Maybe if I talked to the princess's they could help find him?" She offered after some thought.

"NO! I shouldn't even have told you but I can NOT tell any kind of government official! If they knew we were here they could attack! Or worse if they have 133 prisoner they might use him or kill him! I won't have it! I can't be the reason we lose him!" I panicked! The idea I could get him killed by being this honest! I didn't want to think about it! If I could cry I would! They saw my panic as enough and moved to comfort me, Apple Bloom even hugged me.

Granny walked up offering me a cup of her tea and I greatfully accepted it. Sipping I heard he speak. "I reckon they wouldn't do that. But I also doubt they have your missing man Rota... But I reckon they could help find him if this 'Commander' of yours came out and asked them."

I shook my head but smiled "while I appreciate the idea. He won't risk it, we already found a base of sorts hiding 133's crash sight in the woods near here..."

Hearing me say that Applejack perked up. "Oh! Shoot! I forgot to mention! As iwas coming in I was saying the princess's got a letter about some unsanctioned base in the Whitetail woods! We're heading there tomorrow morning ta investigate!"

I looked at Applejack with wide eyes. "Tomorrow?! If it's a rough element that's behind this they'll move or destroy anything before you get there! I need to warn the commander!" Ignoring they're protests I ran out the front door at break neck speeds heading back to the forest heading for our base at the castle.

Hearing her recounting of events CC was under the influence of many emotions. Anger, fear, pride, intrigue, and most of all rage.

Anger that his infiltrator was so easily sniffed out. What powers of preminishon did the natives have to see through her! Fear for the idea that any lead they might find will be destroyed tomorrow morning if they don't act. Pride that Rota managed to learn such valuable info even after being made and keeping herself disguised. But more then anything, RAGE and Bloodlust filled him knowing that a rough element might be the reason his little brother is in danger.

CC HATES rough element, terrorist organizations, rebels, anything even remotely like them he would terminate with extreme prejudice.

"Helmsman! Get word to the warriors to prep for the invasion initial strike now! Someone notify pox he's in command of the mothership till I return! Someone prepare orbital cannons!" Turning to Rota he continues "Rota Viral 145! Meet me and my men at the base in one hour! You will join us as for the assault! I want that base in flames by this evening and I want all within it vaporized!" He said marching away to preparer for the one thing the Furon Empire is good at. WAR.
