M.A.R'S Initiative

Rose is walking in a dark hallway and chittering could be heard all around.

"What the hell." Rose says as he continues down the hallway looking around.

Rose eventually makes it to a fork and he feels he has to continue the same way almost as though something was guiding him. A voice that doesn't use words. He stops at a door lined with barbed wire and a lock on the handle. He decides to ignore the door and tries to walk away but he always ends up back at the door no matter which way he went.

"Why are you so important?" He asks while looking at the door when suddenly a new door pops up. This one has an oak door with no barbed wire and no lock. Rose looks at it and almost grabs the handle but decides not too. As soon as he removes his hand the door starts to bleed from the top. The blood turned into words reading 'Turn back now' then 'if you don't you'll regret it' before falling to the ground."

This time though the door has a bloody hand print in the middle of it. Around the hand there are bloody paw, claw, talon, fin and a few prints that he can't make out all over it that then turn into a message that reads 'LAST CHANCE BOY! OPEN THE DOOR!!' Naturally Rose backs away from the door. "No thanks." Rose says to the door sternly it then explodes into smoke and when the smoke cleared all that was left was a key that had engraved in it. 'Thank you'.

'What the fuck?' Rose thought as he looked at the locked door before approaching it with the key at which point the barbed wire covering the door melted and all that's left was the lock. Rose uses the key on the lock and the door suddenly opens wide and Rose is sucked into it.

Michael POV

I cover my eyes because of the bright light that the door emits as I'm sucked into it. All I could think was 'this is one weird dream'. I then see a cyan shadow but it's transparent and glitchy. ' A..ou..to...Help...? ' I jumped at the way it spoke. "What are you?"

Adore's POV

'..lp..them!' it shouted this time. 'This is getting me nowhere.' I thought as I walked up to the cyan shadow and as I reached out my hand to grab it tentacles sprouted from it and slowly moved to my hand.

Third POV

As the tentacles slowly move towards their hands. "Fuck it" they said before they suddenly dive their hands into the shadow and a white light explodes. They wake up with a jump.

??? POV

"I did it." I say to my friend as he looks to me with confusion on his face.

"What did you do?" he asks me as I start laughing.

"I got the cavalry." I responded 'although they did get more than I meant to give.' I thought as my expression turns grim 'What was that interference? This changes things.' I though as I stood up. " Alright come on, we gotta prepare." I tell my friend as him and I go into a room.

Afternoon the next day : Rose POV

"I'm telling you I know what I saw and felt." I tell her.

"But you were dreaming right."

"Yeah, but that's beside the point."

"Nuh uh you dreamt it so it couldn't have been real."

I just sigh at her antics. "Fine don't believe me." I walk off as she sticks her tongue at me.

I start heading towards the cafeteria where I see my friends. "Hey guys how have you been?"

"A bit sore but pretty good." Adore says as

Michael sticks his thumb up.

"I had one of the strangest dreams I've ever had."

They both look at me with questioning looks on their faces. "What happens in your dream."

"Well I wake up in a dark hallway and after a while I come across a door lined with barbed wire and has a lock. Then I see another door this one has nothing on it and I can open it but I don't and started to-" I'm interrupted by Adore.

"Bleed." He says as I look at him with a shocked look. " How did you know?"

"I had a similar dream. I didn't open the second door and it bled like you said and it told me that I had one more chance to get out but I refused it and it turned into a key." I look at him dumbfounded.

I look at Michael "Did you have the same dream?" He nods his head 'I used the key to unlock the locked door and I was sucked inside before seeing a cyan shadow and it saying something about help.' he signs.

"That's very weird. What do you think it means?" I ask them

"It means it wanted us to help whoever that cyan shadow was talking about about."

"Alright but who would that be? I mean the cyan shadow didn't give us much to go off of."

"True but that doesn't mean he won't come back."

"You think he'll be in our dreams again."

"Exactly."

"I guess that could happen. What do you think Michael."

'I don't know, but I want to see where this goes. I wonder if we'll be transported to another world with powers. '

"If that happens I'll give you 20 bucks." Adore says with a slight chuckle.

'Bet.'

Ponyville POV

The unknown pony entered Sugar Cube Corner with the bell above the door jingle alerting the pink cashier and the front desk.

An audible gasp could be heard from the pink pony and she cartoonishly jumps in the air. "I've never seen you before so you must be new. Hi I'm Pinkie Pie. Questions, what kinda cake do you like, when's your birthday, where did you come from, ok so your gonna tune me out…"

'I will kill you and your friends. Mark my words but not yet.'

"And that's how Deadpool, The Mask and I saved the universe." Pinkie finishes up her story and turns to the unknown pony.

"That's really interesting but I must get going so can I get the chocolate cupcake with vanilla frosting and sprinkles." The unknown pony asks Pinkie.

"Of course. Will that be all? Oh and please come by later today I'll have your party ready by then." Pinkie says with a heartwarming smile.

'Tch.' The unknown pony thought before saying "Yeah that will be all and I'll be sure to come by." he said with a smile.

'Weird what was that?' Pinkie thought as the unknown pony paid for his food and left.

Marketplace POV

Derpy flys through the air looking around with her mail satchel. 'I should get Mom a gift for her birthday but what should I get her.' she thinks as she spaces out and doesn't realize she's falling.

A alabaster stallion with bright green eyes is walking down the path looking at vendors and their stalls. 'I don't need to eat food but I can. I wonder what it'll taste like.' He thinks as he looks into his pouch and sees a good amount of bits. 'This should be enough to get me a couple nights and food but I'll need to find some work.' He thinks while sighing. 'The sooner we finish this the better.' He sighs mentally when suddenly something crashes into him and he lays down on the ground unsure of what just happened.

When he comes to, he sees a grey pegasus saying something over and over but he can't make it out. "Sorry, sorry ,sorry sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. I didn't watch where I was going and I was thinking about something then I started falling and I'm really sorry." Derpy says to him then looks away waiting to get yelled at. The stallion stands up and looks at her and offers her his hand to get up. She just stares at his hand for a while then shakes her head and grabs his hand and gets up.

He sighs "Just be careful next alright. You could've been hurt." He says as he starts to walk away. Derpy just stares in disbelief. 'He didn't yell at me?' Derpy thinks as she quickly catches up to him. She just looks at him In curiosity.

'Why is she just staring at me?' He thinks as he continues to walk. They walk in silence until the stallion breaks it "Why are you following me?"

"You were nice." Derpy bluntly answers.

"How does me being nice explain you following me?"

"Not many ponies are nice to me, if any." Derpy says dejectedly.

'Huh I thought everyone in Equestria was nice to one another.' "Why aren't they nice to you. Did you do something bad?"

"If you count messing up the mail, dropping furniture, damaging public property and messing up the weather then yeah."

"Quite the klutz huh?"

"Yeah but."

"But they stll keep you around no?" He said looking at her questioningly.

"I..I guess." She said dejectedly

"Then i guess they still have a use for you."

"Yeah... Yeah you're right! Maybe i can make up for it." Derpy said hopefully and bit of joy. "What's your name?"

"My name? …. My name is Mourning Daze, nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you Morning Daze, I'm Ditzy Doo but many ponies just call me Derpy."

"...I think I'll just call you Bubbles instead. How about it?"

Bubbles smiles and nods. "I like Bubbles. Thanks." As she grabs his hand and pulls him. "Come with me." Daze slightly grimaced before matching her speed.

A few days later: Rose's POV

Rose walks down the street with his friends "So what's the plan for today?"

"I don't know maybe go to the arcade again?"

'Maybe the park?' Micheal suggests before hearing. 'The time has come for your arrival.' All three of them look around trying to find the person who said it before they start to blackout.

"G-guys" Rose holds out his hand for the other as they grab it and fall unconscious.

Rose's POV

Michael, Adore and I wake up in a Japanese style house with a demon like mask on display below a katana. We walk around for a little before a TV lights up with static and we see the cyan shadow.

"Y-you head out." The cyan shadow said glitching.

"What?" Adore asks confused.

"B-be careful of th-." The TV suddenly turns to static as we just look at each unsure of what to do. Michael stands up and goes towards the door and opens it. He abruptly closes it and calmly goes sit on a couch.

Adore and I just stare at each other as we see Michael just sitting there in a thinking pose. "Hey dude. You alright?"

'Look outside' he signs. We stand up unsure of what to expect. When we opened the door we saw earth. As in outer space earth we try to step outside but Michael grabbed and yanked us back in and closed the door. He then hit us both on top of our heads causing bumps to pop up. We put hands on top of the bumps and rub them as he signs. 'I said look not go into space. What the hell were you two thinking!''

"I thought I'd open and exit the door like a normal person." Adore says sarcastically, causing Michael to hit him again, making a bump appear on top of the other.

'Got anything smart to say now.' Micheal signs as Adore shakes his head.

The TV changes from static to showing a forest. "Be careful of the many dangers of the-." The TV turns to static then shows varying pictures of different animals. "...They will help you start your journey but you must find and help them first. There will be others a few of them are-*static*." The TV then shows the cyan shadow.

"Now then are you ready to start your journey."

"We heard almost none of what was played." I said deadpaning.

"Oh.... Welp we have no time to replay that video and-*static* we have to get started now the-*static* damn thing. It's worse than I thought."

"What is?"

"Find whatever is jamming it and destroy it. It's the onl-*static*." The TV cuts off and is silent. We then see the door start to glow cyan and read. 'I can't help you anymore. I've given you each gifts. Use them.' The door then opens and we are pulled in.
