Silver Blue
Ponyville Vacation, oh and an ugly Bird
Previous ChapterNext Chapter(A/N: Before you read this, be warned there is a Cyborg Pony on Unicorn Intimacy scene, I am not good with sex scene so it's rather soft core. But, if you like it. cool! if no, well forgive me.)
During the train ride, I got to ride coach this time with Dragnet and the Mares from Ponyville, I also met the little dragon, Spike. He was cool.
Spike looked up and down at me, he wasn't scared, I think he wanted to say Hi, so I broke the ice first.
"Hey, little dude." I said with a smile, my hoof out for a hoof-bump. He obliged and returned it, smiling.
"Wow, are you a robot?" he asked, I would have been offended, but knew better, he just didn't know.
"Nah," I corrected. "Cyborg."
"Cool!" He said as he grinned. "I'm a dragon! the most fearsome beast of Equestria, Lord of the sky, protector of ponies! and---"
Dragnet giggled. "Lord of the sky huh?" She said pointing at his wingless back.
Spike looked at his back and sighed. "Okay, I'm still growing, but...."
I smiled. "It's cool, I was a foal once, it takes a while for everything to kick in." I winked.
Twilight however sighed. "Don't get him started."
But Spike was grinning. "I'll have the biggest wingspan than anypony!"
I smirked. "Bigger than Celestia?"
Spike cupped his chin. "When I grow up I'll be way bigger than her! I can be the royal dragon!"
Everypony laughed at him, but it was only in good nature, never the less I smiled in a supportive manner.
"Hey, maybe someday you'll have wings like mine?" I said as I reached into the luggage compartment and pulled out my flight pack, complete with wings.
Princess Luna was nice enough to have some guards get it for me, In case I needed it, Spike's eyes bulged out as he 'wow'ed under his breath.
One of the pegasus mares, Rainbow Dash, groaned.
"Great, This keeps up, EVERYPONY can be a pegasus."
I rolled my eyes. "It's so I can fly, but have a more practical use, I'm too heavy to walk on clouds." I said, putting the pack away in the luggage compartment.
The look on Dragnet's face was heartbreaking, She was vocal on it before, she didn't want to see me turned into a weapon, and get used to blow ponies up. Plus, she didn't want to leave my side, We're like two peas in the pod, I enter a room, she's next to come through the door. Whats left of the door usually.
It wasn't long until we arrived at the Ponyville station, The girls helped Dragnet and I check out the town, it was strangely vacant, I don't believe I had that much of an effect on ponies. It's then I got to go to this place, Sugar Cube Corner, I noticed the pink one disappeared, so we entered.
"SURPRISE!" The whole town was stuffed in the building, My system, was reading more ponies that the building was capable of holding, but it managed.
The pink pony from before bounced to me and offered a smoothy, I was sure to explain what I could and couldn't eat. The questions were many, but Dragnet helped out.
"Welcome to ponyville!" Pinkie Pie said as she put a hat on my head. "Your visiting now, but maybe you'll visit more often huh?"
She zipped to the side of the room so fast my cpu was burning from trying to keep up with her, so I looked at the floor just to keep it from burning out.
"Y-Yeah, maybe." Dragnet said and looked at me, "I been here before, this pony is very nice, just give her a chance."
"It's fine, but she's making my system short out with how fast she is." I only have so many GBs of RAM, And I don't think 3000 TB RAM would be enough!
Dragnet's mouth made a cute 'o' face before she put on her trademark smile.
Applejack then came up with a smoothy of her own. "Hope your enjoying yourself, Silver Blue." She sipped the smoothie. "Gotta love Pinkie Pie, she can make sure anypony can enjoy her amazing cupcakes!" She stopped to look at the smoothie, "Hey, I wonder what the ingredients are?"
As the party continued, Rarity trotted up to me next, she had a small filly beside her.
"Thank you again for your help." She said as she looked to the younger unicorn. "And this is my sister Sweetie Belle, Her other friends must be around somewhere?"
I looked at the filly and smiled. "Hi."
She waved. "Are you the one who saved Scootaloo?"
I blinked and tilted my head. "The orange filly?" The two nodded. "I guess I did then."
As the party continued, Dragnet and I found a quiet corner, we were sipping coffee (turns out I CAN drink it, Yay!) and discussing our plans.
"The town don't look like much," Dragnet said before continuing. "but there's things here that you won't find anywhere else, Like the Guardian Clock tower, where the bell there was used to alert the guards during the coming of the griffins."
As the day continued, Dragnet and I began our tour, Dragnet mostly dragged me around town. We ended up making a full zig-zag around the whole place. Ponies here were oddly friendly to me. Surprisingly my appearance don't bother em, I later found out Pinkie had something to do with it.
"Mommy, look!" A filly said pointing at me. "Can I have one? PLEASE!?" She asked, her mother giggled.
"Sorry, but I don't think I can find one at the toy store." The mare said.
I chuckled. "Sorry, I'm limited edition."
The mare stared at me wide eyed. "Uhhh...."
Okay MOST ponies were told ahead of time.
"Cool she talks!" The filly said. "Trade you my Doll for her, miss!"
Dragnet busted out laughing. I just facehoof with a mechanical smack which caused the mother to pull her foal away.
"I'm deeply sorry, she can be insistant." The mother said while looking down. "Now, Orion Lights, I don't think you can put her in your toy chest, she won't fit."
"I'm a Police Crime Prevention cyborg, not a toy, Orion Lights." I said as the mother sighs. "Don't sweat it."
After... that happened.... We continued to a large building, it was shaped like a carousel and upon seeing the sign I got it. Carousel Boutique.
Catchy.
Trotting in, the door went 'ting ting' Calling the owner out from behind a mirror.
"Cooomiiiiiing!" She said, it turned out Rarity owned it. "AH, so you made it to my humble shop, have we?" She giggled. "Rest assured you were wise to save the best for last!"
"Hello again, Rarity." Dragnet said. "You know I've Been here before."
"You grew up here before, remember, darling?"
"You lived here?" I asked with a raised brow. "I thought you were a Manehattan Mare?"
Dragnet grinned and booped me on the nose. "I was born and raised in Ponyville, but I moved to Manehattan for police training, when I joined the force, you and I got partnered up. I had to keep you out of trouble somehow." She giggled.
I couldn't help but smirk. "And now?"
"Your still a loose canon, my dear." She said before ruffling my fiber optic wire mane. "Thats why you need somepony to keep you safe."
"Since when Have I been a loose canon?" I asked with a raised brow.
"You shot the snack machine." Dragnet stated simply. "Then there was the air conditioner."
"It fell on my hoof!" I argued.
"You shot that 'burgler'." She added.
I snorted. "He was resisting arrest!"
"He was the homes owner, Blue." She argued.
"He was fine!" Okay, he might, MIGHT, be in a wheel chair now...
Dragnet shook her head. "Then, there was the toy store incident."
"That Tickle-Me Luna had it coming!" I quickly defended.
"You shot it's head off, in front of a foal!" She quickly argued. "The precinct had to buy thirty of the damn things, because your arcane bullets went through four isles, we're lucky nopony was hurt!"
Rarity was staring at us in confusion, I could tell she was wanting to interupt, but I could tell the stories and banter were amusing her as she was trying hard not to laugh.
"Okay, okay, fine, maybe I'm a bit jumpy." I relented.
It was the oddest timing, but the second I said that, a loud 'ding' made me jolt, Law and Justice came out and I was about to fire at the sound, until dragnet pulled them off target, making me shoot the vase in the corner. Rarity had her jaw on the hing as she stared at the damage.
"Well...." She said as she trotted over to clean the mess. "I've been wanting a reason to throw this ugly thing away."
"Sorry Rarity." I said as I chuckled, I saw Dragnet open a hatch with a wrench. "What are you doing?"
She was shaking her head as she detached my guns. "You'll get these back at the end of the day, Blue."
I groaned. "Damnit."
After that ordeal, Dragnet and Rarity began talking, Eventually the talk turned to me standing on a turn table with three mirrors in front of me and Rarity holding a measure tape.
"How did we get from me shooting things to me standing here being poked and prodded?" I asked no one in particular, Rarity answered anyway.
"Oh, don't be so dramatic, darling." She said as she put the tape around my chases. "Everypony deserves to look their best." She pulled the tape off and jotted down the numbers, raising a brow, She then went under me to get my body length measurement. "Including you!"
When she got up out of under me she went to my Mane and began trying to full with it. "Now, your mane may be difficult. Was it designed like this, or did nopony making you have a since of vision?"
I wasn't sure if I should be offended or not. "It grows." I clarified. "I just never style it."
Rarity gasped. "FOR SHAME!" I was smacked on the nose, which really didn't do much but to make the white unicorn make a soft yelp and hold her hoof, making her regret the action. "I shall fix that instantly!"
She pulled out a pair of scissors, and moved them to my hair, then a detail I forgot to mention was evident as the poor pony got a nasty jolt the second she cut a lock of my mane. She yelled out as she dropped the scissors, despite using her magic, the bolt bounced from her scissors, to her horn.
"OOPS!" I said, "I'm sorry, Rarity, I forgot to warn you. They're electrified to allow a kind of connection to the database." Ponyville doesn't have one, therefore it's trying to search for it. "I'm so so so sorry!"
Rarity wobbled on her legs as she held the blackened scissors. "Oohhh." She moaned. "I-It's okay, darling. No harm done. And my mane isn't sticking up." There was still a crackle of energy surging around her horn as she got back to me with the scissors. "Okay, let's try this again, shall we?"
I quickly turned the database scanner off, making my mane loose it's glow, Rarity 'Oohed'. Apparently my mane was silver with a blue streak running through it. It was reflective as the individual follicles were indeed wires, LEDs infact, with them off, they were reflective, making almost like a mirror effect.
Rarity stopped to fix her own mane in her reflection, after that, she began her work without being zapped, her horn glowed as the turn table rotated me as she went from front, left, back, and then right, once done, I saw the pony who looked back, She had her mane pulled back, making her face more visible, the pony tail she wore was now braided, with a metal nut put in place of a scrunchy.
Dragnet took a moment to look up from her magazine and look at me. "Oh my." She came up to me and smiled. "Who's this cute pony?"
"Hah. Hah." I sarcastically replied. "Where'd you get the bolt?"
Rarity smiled. "I'm not done yet, Darling." She said, pulling out a buffering attachment for a power drill. "Despite what some ponies like to think, I have worked with more difficult ponies."
After a buffering job, a strange but satisfying tightening of loose joints, And a fresh coat of wax, I slowly rose from an oil bath that Rarity kept in her basement, that had a 77 Chariot which she's been working on, guess a pony petty like Rarity can have some side hobbies.
It wasn't long however, I was put back up on the pedestal as Rarity began bringing out fabrics for whatever it is she was doing, I looked outside and it was almost dark!
Dragnet was treating herself to a mud mask treatment, her hooves being rubbed by two twin ponies who Rarity invited over on pay to give my partner their attention as she couldn't do so herself, being focused on me.
"Now," Rarity said, placing a piece of fabric after fabric on me. "What look would work with you?" She was muttering as she continued to change fabrics. "No that won't do." She said tossing the fabric aside. "NO!" She yelled. "Defenantly Not!" Flying Fabric. "HOW DARE YOU!" And another. "BEGONE!" Another Fabric learned the magic of flight.
She was getting frustrated, obviously. It's when she rummaged through her storage of fabrics she found something, turning to me she muttered, though my sensitive audio receptors still picked it up.
"I wonder?"
Trotting up to me she held a fabric in her magic grip, it was of a grey color, I was curious as to why that color caught her eyes when others would have worked well. But she had began to pick up other fabric rolls.
"Yes." She muttered. "Yes that could work, simple yet elegent, Mixing machine and the beauty of the mare inside!" She began to drape the fabrics on me, I tried to look but she made me turn my head as she was placing different fabrics on my neck. "Maybe... yes!"
I was spun around, making me dizzy as she levitated an assortment of cutting, sewing, and ruler tools. She quickly got to work and by the time she was finished, my clock was showing it was midnight.
Once she was done, Dragnet was asleep and my charge was down to 48%.
"Finally." She said, her eyes were blood shot and her mane was frazzled. "BEHOLD!"
Turning me again I was greeted to a pony I've not seen in six years. I was wearing a dark grey dress with saphire spiraling accent details, the breast of the dress had a V-bangle sewn in the fabric made of a dark blue leather with a zero one embroidered in the left side.
Around my neck was a light blue handkerchief that was tied around my neck, I turned to the side and noticed a set of black boots that used straps instead of laces.
I smiled at Rarity and nodded. "Thanks. Been a while since I felt like a real pony."
Rarityand nodded back with a smile of her own in return. "Your welcome, darling."
The next morning, Dragnet and I left Rarity's, she was kind enough to let us stay the night, we went over to the Library, turned out it was Twilight Sparkle's home, fitting, I figured she was a book worm.
I was reading a book on mechanics, machines, and computers, mostly in case I needed to do self repairs, it was quite useful and very informative, I ran the data with some literal 'speed reading', I compared the data with my schematics and found a ton of it useful.
Opening a hatch compartment on my chest I found an interface behind another panel, it was a monitor showing my data storage, memory, all that crap. If I ever deemed it necessary I could reprogram myself.
I then found a strange circular 'thing' with a grip in the center, like a reverse flathead screw bolt. Screwing it open, I nearly shut myself down, it was my Magic Fusion Core.
"Cut that out!" Twilight yelled. I looked up startled as she chastised me. "Your going to pull a wire out or something!"
Dragnet looked up from her book, shaking her head. "That's just how she is, she's a curious lil' pony." she said with a giggle, that smile disappeared when she looked away. "A brave pony too." she looked at me from the side. I knew what she was thinking.
I nodded to her and returned to the book I was looking at. After I got the info I needed, I went to another, one called 'Ponies and Puppets, how to cut the strings." Huh? That one was an interesting read, it was a story of a pony who was controlled by dark forces, until she learned how to 'cut her strings' as it were, and worked to undo the damage she done.
It was a fascinating read, but not a useful one, still the data was saved onto hard drive, and I began doing another look through the shelves, Dragnet was reading another book by then, a romance one from the looks of it, didn't figure she was a trashy romance reader, weird.
After all that, we began to leave to another of the town's many landmarks, for some reason, Dragnet lead me to a farm.
"Uh, Dragnet?"
"You'll be fine, Blue. It's a Farm, Sweet Apple Acres to be exact!" She said, going over the place's history. "It was one of Ponyville's first establishing land marks!"
"So... an apple farm." I said plainly.
Dragnet stopped, and I almost ran her over. "No no no, it's more than that." She continued. "It's ran by the Apple family."
"OH!" Yeah, everypony knew the Apple family, there was an Apple in every huge and small town or city, even the Canterlot Capital had an Apple.
There's a rumor, in fact, that when a town starts it's roots, the Apples plant the first seed. And it's well known to stay on the Apple's good side, in Manehattan, the Apples have a large connection in the city, They run a lot of stores and you never disrespect them. Doing so means bad things will happen to you.
Even the police either have Apples in the family, or had support from them. Which is odd for a Mafia type organization, but it don't mean they have to be bad ponies.
Once we got to the farm, Dragnet saw one of the town's owners. She was one of the ponies at the wedding, Applejack I believe. Jeez, does all those girls live in town?
"Well, howdy again, there, Blue!" She said looking me over. "Well, Ah say yer lookin much better than the last time I saw ya!"
I blinked at her in confusion, until she chuckled.
"Ah was at the weddin, remember?" Her smile melted away like ice in a flame. "Ya were beat a might bad, metal pipe stickin outta ya, arm missin...."
"OH!" I said. shuddering. "If it's all the same to you, I'd rather forget that moment."
The farm pony nodded. "Yeah, can't blame ya there, par'ner." She said before changing the subject. "Where ya'll been?"
I chuckled and looked myself over. "I got a make over at Rarity's."
Applejack chuckled. "Explains the fancy getup. Lookin amight good, though! So You two like to see the farm?" The farm pony asked as she offered us an apple. I got applesauce with cinnamon. YUM!
Eating it however I got wierd grinding noises coming from my stomach. A pop was heard and I spat out a seed.
"OOPS!" Applejack said. "Ah best check that dern apple masher again. Seems to be on tha fritz."
I was spitting apple seeds out like a machine gun, putting new holes in the ground. Applejack was watching until a smile flashed on her face.
"Say, you two wanna help with the farm, ah can have ya'll do some stuff round here." She said, dodging a seed I spat out. Jeeze how many of the damn things are there!?
Dragnet grinned and nudged me with a hoof. "We'd be happy to, right Partner?"
I spat the last seed from my mouth, Making Dragnet yelp as she ducked, holding her ponytail down. The seed flew a good thirty yards before imbeding itself in the barn's wall, I gagged a bit before smiling. "Sure thing, Doing something other than firing Law and Justice sounds nice for once!" I said popping said guns from my sides, nearly smacking Applejack upside the head.
"WHAOH NELLY!" She said pushing Law away from her noggin. "Easy there, pony girl, 'bout took mah head off!"
"Don't worry," Dragnet said. "She's not armed, She shot Rarity's place up after hearing the microwave ding and I had to disarm her."
"How do we know it wasn't really a bomb?" I argued.
"Your not a bomb disposal Pony, you failed that class, remember?" Dragnet argued. "And let's not forget that nasty boobie trap Vex had on that door."
"There's a story there, Ah bet?" Applejack asked, Dragnet was happy to tell it as I played the memory back, literally!
Back when we were getting Vex, Prying open the double doors to her hideout, I spotted a bomb, neatly nestled on the floor, it was set to explode the moment the doors were open, I tried to disarm it, but the damn thing blew up in my face, sending me across the room and blacking out. I rubbed the hammered out dent on my chest plate with a fresh memory.
Applejack blinked, she tried hard not to laugh but ultimately failed. "Wow, ya'lls like a couple-a trouble magnets. Ya'll must see alotta action."
I grinned like a school filly. "You should see the black box recordings on my hard drive."
"Black Boxa-driva-whatza?" Applejack said. "Now ya'lls plain talkin fancy!"
"Remember when I got shot at Canterlot?" Dragnet said.
"I don't want to, it hurts seeing you hurt." I replied honestly.
"Awww." Applejack giggled. "Ya'll sure yer just partners?"
I blushed and pulled out my plasma cutter. "You want to loose your tongue?"
The farm pony just laughed harder. I was literally fuming smoke from my vents, Dragnet was just smiling sweetly at me, but we were both blushing.
Trotting through the orchard, Applejack had hitched an apple cart to our backs, Mine had several bags of seeds, I got an idea of what she had planned for me.
"Alright, gals." the Farm Pony began. "Here's yer jubs." She said as she turned to us. "Dragnet, ah need ya to help miss Blue 'ere to clear out these ol' dead trees. Since ah'd reckon apple buckin's outta the question fer our cyborg."
"What!? I can buck a tree! Bucking's easy! WATCH!" I argued
"BLUE, Don't!"
It was too late, the second I locked my crossairs on an innocent tree I reared back with my back legs, and kicked hard at it.
The apples rained down on the ground, several thunked against my hull while Dragnet and Applejack ran out from under the bushel as they came came down. I gave them a big grin until we heard a cracking groan, it lasted a few seconds, and grew in volume before being followed by a loud crashing thump.
Slowly I turned my head, my neck joints made a slow whir as I looked behind me.
There on the ground the tree laid on it's side, uprooted. Birds around the orchard were flying off, startled by the loud noise.
"Uuuuhhh."
I was too flabbergasted by the unintentional damage I caused, Applejack had her mouth hanging open and Dragnet was facehoofing.
"Applejack, I'm so sorry!" I said as I got around beside the tree and picked it up, good ol' Earth Pony strength mixed with mechanical ingenuity, the Tree rose up, roots being pushed back to their home in the soil.
Applejack and Dragnet set to work pushing the dirt back in the ground to keep the tree from falling.
"Well, ya got them apples alright." Applejack said as she looked at the mess. "Posta keep the tree standin though." She was giggling at least. "Now, let's keep to the job, kay?"
I snorted. "Fine. C'mon Draggy."
I was certainly more suited to removing the dead trees, they stood no chance against me as I ripped them out of the ground the same manner I did with the poor apple tree I unintentionally knocked down.
Applejack was refilling the holes where the old trees were removed and Dragnet planted new seeds, I was at the 1,000th tree and was about to knock it over until I just suddenly shut off.
"The hay?" I heard, no video but I had audio. "What in tarnation happened, she jus stopped!" It was Applejack.
Somepony opened the core cylinder on my lower side, I got a message saying the Magic Fusion Core silo was open. "Her core needs charging, she must have been active too long. Luckily I got a second one in my saddle bag, would you be so kind as to..."
"Sure thang, par'ner." I heard Applejack say. A few minutes of Dragnet muttering to herself as she was no doubt fussing over me, I suddenly had video.
"Gotcha on reserve power, Blue." Dragnet said as she continued to tweek my system. "You should be able to see now."
She had also opened the hatch on my chest and opened the second, using the console inside to punch in more codes.
'I can see you.'
"Yeah, what happened?" She asked.
'Some kind of power outtage.'
She sighed and shook her head at me. "Never, EVER scare me like that, I hate when you do that!" She emphasized that by punching my shoulder, causing my body to rattle a bit, since nothing was on, my joints were locked up, making me rock a little.
'I don't mean to.'
It wasn't long until Applejack came back back with another Core, Dragnet took it and with a profession that would make Gear and Bolt jealous, installed it.
Finally I got a full charge and my systems booted up, Readout showed a full charge and my battery was at 99%.
"You forgot to charge last night!" Dragnet asked, like a mother scolding her daughter. "You gave me a fright, Blue!"
"Sorry, I didn't get to charge last night, I was being dressed up by Rarity." I defended, Dragnet put the empty core in her saddle back, I saw she had two more full ones inside.
"Well, come on. let's get back to it." Applejack said.
By evening, the work was done, and I was picking bits of wood out of my hull. We were heading out to the hotel we rented a room at, when Twilight came galloping to us with Spike lagging behind.
"Spike" Pant. "Letter, Princess..." Pant. "For you..." pant.
Dragnet and I shared a side glance, "Try breathing, then continue."
Twilight panted a few more times before she started. "Spike received a letter from the Princess, it's for you." She explained. She gave me the letter and I read it outloud.
"Dear Dragnet and Silver Blue,
I apologize for interrupting your vacation a second time, but this is a serious and possibly for you, personal matter.
A squad of royal guards have went missing, I gave them an order to check the Castle of the Royal Sisters, I wanted to be sure Chrysalis wasn't hiding there (we learned different now), They have yet to report and I grow worried.
One of the Royal Guards was Lieutenant Silver Lining, Its because of this I am certain you wish to deal with the situation yourself.
If you wish to employ Twilight for assistance, you may, Twilight has been my most loyal subject and student since childhood. But I pray you keep her out of harms way if possible.
I wish you the best of luck,
Her Royal Majesty, Matron of the Sun, and Protector of Equestria
Princess Celestia."
Dragnet was about to say something, but I bolted off, I had no idea where to go until my onboard navigation system showed me where to go.
My father...
Missing....
I snorted, I lost my mother, then my father lost me, I won't stand by and loose him when I have a chance to see him again.
Overriding the disarming of my weaponry that Dragnet put on me, Law and Justice came forth from their respective hatches, after Rarity's, Dragnet reattached my weapons but disarmed me. Now I was armed, and any foe will learn I was dangerous!
Galloping at a speed that even Dragnet couldn't keep up with, I bolted through the forest. Trees and thorned bushes were turned oblivion as I smashed through them like tissue paper.
"BLUE!" I heard Dragnet scream, She did her best to keep up but eventually she tripped and fell.
I stopped and looked at her. What was I doing? Running blind? With a sigh I turned around and came up to her, helping her up, she shook her head at me.
"You can't just run in like a war machine, Blue, come on, we're in this together." She said as she trotted with me, until we heard more hooves running in.
When we turned, we saw Twilight gallop in.
"You'll..." Pant. "Need." More panting. "Help..." She needs to exorcise more.
I looked at Dragnet who pulled out her pistol and loaded it with a smirk. "Never deny backup, partner."
It took a few hours until we got to the castle, I learned Twilight was a very powerful little unicorn. She can do shit you wouldn't believe. She even levitated ME! That's a very talented little pony! Even Dragnet's Jealous.
"Ugh..." I groaned. "Why couldn't I have been born a Unicorn?"
Dragnet put her hoof on my shoulder, "Blue, Your special the way you are, your a wonderful Earth---
"No, I'm a useless earth pony!" I argued.
"Excuse Me!" Dragnet balked. "But who among us is a kickass cyborg pony with guns here?" She put her hoof on her chin, "Hmm, oh yes, YOU ARE!" She argued further. "You have the greatest strength among us, Heavily armed, heavily ARMORED! You took on Vex, fought Queen Chrysalis all by your self!"
"Got my ass kicked you mean." I clarified. she slapped me.
"You still fought bravely," She said cupping my cheek. "Your the most amazing little earth pony, you were before your death, and now, even more so!"
I remained quiet.
"Uhm... We're here." Twilight said, as we got to the castle, it was lit up, and something felt off.
We proceeded inside, after I had to get my flight pack so I don't snap the bridge. once we got in, we found the place in disarray, as though a fight broke out. There was blood on the floor and magic energy burns and a small pock holes on the walls. it looked like one hell of a fight.
Dragnet put her hoof on my withers and nuzzled. "I'm sure Silver Lining's fine."
I nodded as I began to look around, there were signs the guards were sent here some time ago, the place looked lived in. I had a bad feeling and I deployed my rifles.
Dragnet looked at a blood stain, it started with a splatter then smeared across the wall, like whatever hurt the poor bastards threw him into it and he dragged against it a bit before he fell.
No bodies, strange.
"This place is dead, whatever happened here, I think we missed it." Dragnet said as she picked up a knocked over can of soup at a fire pit.
"Must have went down some time ago, I'd say three and a half hours." I said as I pulled a wall tarp over, it was old, tethered, and the details on it depicted an Alicorn raising the moon, must be the Lunar court side of the castle.
I noticed something on the floor, picking it up I saw it was a wallet, I opened it finding a photo of a young filly holding a royal guard plush. Wait...
"Dad..." I said as I looked around. I switched to thermal, then X-Ray visions. Nothing.
"There's a trail," Twilight said looking at a wall. "It ends here. Think it's a---
I fired my guns at the wall before she could finish, it shatted to pieces and bricks fell with ease. Fuck this shit.
"Rotating wall...." She finished. she looked to Dragnet with an annoyed look.
My favorite unicorn grinned sheepishly and shrugged. "She can be dramatic sometimes."
"Ya think?"
"Let's go." I said as we entered.
Looking around I found there was a stairway, at the end, an orange glow caught my optics. Proceeding with caution, I went down and we began to hear voices.
"I'm hungry. You just ate three Ponies! how can you POSSIBLY be hungry? I just am." Despite the conversation, it sounded like it came from one being, but in different tones. "you eat two unicorns then your hungry five minutes later! Bah, they just don't fill you up as well as earth ponies do. there was one in the group we caught. let's eat him."
I quicken my pace, once we got to the bottom we saw something most horrifying.
Bones, bones everywhere, there were more here than from just a few guards, whatever this thing was, it's been eating ponies for a long time.
"How did we miss this?" Twilight asked herself as she entered. She gasped as she looked over.
I followed her line of sight and saw the fresh remains of the guards, they were pegasi and unicorns, no earth ponies, yet.
"Let's cook him first, makes the meat tastier." The voice said, the rest of the personalities agreed.
"Your never going to get away with this!" Another voice, one I heard my whole life, from birth and before death. My Oil Pump pumped faster as I used my X-Ray mode, behind the wall an Earth Pony was being held down by chains, and... what in Equestria!?
Whatever it was, looked to be a bird, but had the head of a pony and... my word, it was big!
"I'm coming Dad!" I yelled out, I had no time to blast the wall, and I feared I may hit dad.
"Blue?" the pony's voice said. it was him!
I ran and smashed into the wall, sending bricks everywhere, I must have been a sight to my dad,
He was a light gray earth pony with green eyes and a blue mane, I got most my looks from him. His armor was torn and he was bleeding, but scans showed he'll be fine.
Needless to say, he was staring in awe at me, I was like a ghost to him, my eyes must have been glowing through the dust as it began to clear, and honestly, I must have been a badass sight.
"What is this?" The creature said as it looked at me. "More food?"
"You can try!" I replied. "But I'm gonna give you one hell of a tummy ache!"
Dragnet and Twilight entered behind me and saw the situation, Twilight gasped.
"A Harpy!"
Indeed, it looking like a cross between a vulture and a pony, and DAMN was it ugly, it had jagged teeth with fresh blood in it's mouth, a dewlap on it's neck like that of an elderly mare but more extreme, it's feathers were black and it had clawed fingers, so it was like a bat, it's Talons were long and curved like a scythe, which looked like could tear a pony to shreds, and from the blood on them and bits of fur, I'd say it had plenty of practice in that profession.
"Dragnet, help my dad." I said as I glared at the Harpy and spread out my legs. "Twilight?"
"Happy to help." She said with a snort. "Be careful, from what I've read, Harpy's are strong, they can tear a pony to pieces in short order."
"How about cyborgs?" I asked, in genuine curiosity.
"Dunno, but be ready, their beaks aren't for show either." she replied.
"Be careful," I heard my father say behind me. "It killed my men."
I snorted and trained my rifles on it's wings. Firing seven rounds, the harpy screeched, it was so loud everypony pinned their ears back, even I had to turn off my audio receptors to keep them from exploding, I took aim and shot the ugly bitch again just to shut her up. When it was safe I turned my audio back on.
"That was loud!" I yelled.
"WHAT!?" Everypony said.
"I Said that was LOUD!" I yelled out again.
"WHAT!?" Was the response. Then Twilight had to add. "That was Loud!"
I rolled my optics, just before having a wing pimp slap me like a hoe, sending me across the chamber into a statue of Celestia, it's head rolling into my crotch with it's eyes looking up at me. I blushed.
"Sorry, Princess, your not my type." I said as I extended my fingers to pick it up.
The Harpy was advancing on my group, It's wings were splayed out in a manner that I didn't like, Dragnet almost had Dad freed, but the chains were being difficult.
"Please hurry." Dad said as he looked up at the Harpy.
Dragnet growled. "I'm trying my damnest."
"You'll all be our food!" The Harpy said as it was about to pounce, Twilight was charging up a spell, but the thing was almost on her. "Your first!"
Rearing my hoof back.
"Hey dad, remember when I was in the filly's baseball legue?" I said, getting his attention.
"You had a terrible throw back then!" He replied, "You beamed the coach in the head!"
"Yeah, let's see if my luck has changed any?" I chucked the statue's head at the Harpy, it thunked right across it's face, sending it spinning with a squawk.
"HAH!" I smirked. "I still got it!"
"Sure did, honey. Keep at it!"
Picking up more parts of the statue I began chucking them at the Harpy, the second the third piece was thrown, it caught it in it's jaws, tightening before crushing the marble into dust, it hissed at me.
"Okay, not my best throw." I muttered, I broke into a gallop at the monster and jumped on it's back, firing at it as I held on for dear life while Big Bird tried her best to throw me off.
"Get off me, Tin Can!" The Big Bird said as it tried to swipe at me with it's claws.
"But I like being on top!"
It's that moment Twilight cast her spell, I saw Dad get freed from the chains just as Dragnet was about to try and cut his hoof off. Thank goodness!
I fired again and again, But the damn thing's feathers were thick, you'd think a bird be easy to shoot, but even my arcane shots were just impacting against thick leathery skin and feathers.
"Damnit, Doesn't anything put you down!?" I yelled as I went up to it's shoulders and started to punch the Harpy, making it squawk each time until it decided to bite my hoof. "HEY! I just had that Polished!"
The Harpy pulled me off it's back and flung me, sending me through another wall, and almost over the cliff had I not deployed my flight pack, I was thinking of possible options as I watched the others deal with the beast.
Pulling out her pistol, Dragnet dodged the Harpy's claws the best she could, her jacket being the only thing to keep her from being sliced to ribbons as she dodged a swipe from it's wing, while Twilight was throwing pieces of the shattered statue at the bird, She was being careful not to hit anypony, most hit home, but didn't seem to harm the damn thing much.
Dad on the other Hoof, once he got his arcane sword, he started hacking at it, but like before, it's feathers were thick. Arcane Magic Bullets did nothing, throwing things at it was just as effective, what about....
An idea popped on my HUD, literally, It was a long shot, but what else was there, I flew in at top speed, lowering myself down parallel to the floor, I put in as much speed as I could.
The sound was like a scream of an eagle, as my afterburners roared, Big Bird heard me coming but just as it was about to swipe at me it was too late, I collided into it's legs, sending the bitch flipping over it's head and onto it's back, squawking as she tried to get up, I slammed my hooves into the floor to slow myself down and turned around in mid slide, I deployed my sonic emitter and advanced upon it slowly while firing.
The sound the Emitter used was at a frequency that could shatter the most toughest walls, and turn glass to sand, The Harpy stood no chance as it screeched in pain, holding it's ears closed, it rose to it's feet and began to back away as I advanced closer, Twilight and Dragnet joined beside me, Dragnet shot her pistol while Twilight flung more objects at Big Bird.
Dad stood and watched in awe as I subdued the Harpy, causing it to screech one final time before jumping out of the hole in the wall and fly off into the everfree, hopefully never to be seen again by pony eyes.
I shut off the sonic emitter and snorted, steam shooting out of my nostrils. I checked over my armor for damage, a shallow cut from when the Harpy swiped me away was evident, but negligible. It's that moment I felt a presence behind me. I turned around and saw my dad looking me over.
"Bluey?" He asked, he took a cautious step towards me as I took one towards him. "My little bluey?"
I blinked. This was more awkward than I figured it be.
Suddenly, I looked away. "No!" I turned trying to go out the hole in the wall only for Dad to grab me. "Don't look at me!"
"Blue!" Dad said, pulling me back as best he could, I give him credit, he wasn't stronger then me now, but damn did he try. "Don't run, please."
I stopped, but kept my face hidden behind a mechanical wing. I couldn't let him see me like this!
"Blue, please..." He said, trotting in front of me to cut off my escape. "Let me see you."
Reluctantly, I lowered my wing, and looked him in the eyes, green eyes met glowing light blue optics. He had a look on his face, one I couldn't read. He bit his hoof before he put it on my face. He knew it wasn't the same face he held when I was a foal. But he knew it was mine.
"Oh, Oh Bluey, what have they done to you?" He said as he cupped my face, a tear ran down his cheek.
"It's still me dad..." I said softly.
Suddenly he pulled me into a hug. "I know, baby. I know." He put his hooves to my sides, trying to find something of me he recognized, I hugged back, but it was pathetic.
He looked at me again, he was on the verge of a breakdown but shook his head, refusing to let himself loose his mind, he put his hooves to his head, running them through his hair. "Oh, oh Bluey...."
"Dad...." I shook my head. "If you need a moment---
But he shook his head. "No." He sniffed. "No, I don't." He was getting angry. "Who did this to you?"
"Vex... Vector Sigma, they found me, I...." I stopped. I could barely say the rest but Dad realized it. He took a deep breath.
"I mean, who turned you into... this?" He said motioning my body. "This isn't... it's not...."
Finally, Dragnet came to our rescue and put a hoof on his shoulder, she pulled him aside. "Silver Lining, She's still your daughter, Don't do this to her."
Dad looked her in the eyes and after a moment he took a deep breath, it was shuddered, but strong, he snorted before nodding.
"Your right," He nodded again. "Yes, you are my daughter." He finally said to me as he hugged me again, I hugged him back this time. "And no matter what, I'm still here for you."
"Uhm..." Twilight said getting our attention. "This is nice, but, can we do this away from the blood covered walls and bones of dead ponies, please?"
Needless to say we agreed, we left the castle later on and got back to Ponyville, Twilight went home to file her report. While Dad got us a hotel to stay at, Dragnet thought it best if Dad and I got to catch up, and gave us privacy.
"So." I began, sipping a hayburger smoothy. "What happened after I...."
Dad nodded. "Well, I made sure you had the best funeral ever." He said with a smile, it was a morbid one, but genuine. "You should see your headstone sometime."
"I did!" I said with a nod. "Silver Blue, 1985 - 2005. Loving Daughter and best damn cop on the force, If you break the law in heaven, I'll come for you. It was sweet dad."
Dad chuckled. "Had to argue with the funeral home to get it made." he picked up his coffee and took a sip. "So, Do you need tune up's now or something?"
I did a double take until I realize he was being literal, I set the smoothy down and nodded. "Yeah, I have two technicians that maintain my cybernetic side, the precincts going to hire a psychiatrist for me when I get back."
Dad raised a brow. "Phsych doc? Why? Your not crazy!" he said, already he wanted to go off on a rant but I held him down.
"No, dad." I chuckled. "It's more for my biological side, I'm a cyborg now, which means my biological parts need to be maintained as well."
He nodded with an 'oh' and calmed down. He sipped his coffee and dunked a donut in it. "So, what's it like?"
I looked at him for a time before the question made more sense, I sighed as I looked at my hoof, extending my 'fingers'. "I can Kind of feel. More like, vibrations if anything. I can't feel the cold, I can't feel the heat, the breeze of the wind, I...." I sighed. "I'm sorry Dad."
He raised an ear up for a moment, then he realized. "What?"
I huffed before looking at him again. "I'm a freak now, huh?"
He finally understood and shook his head. "No, no your not, your still my daughter, your not a freak!" He said before smiling. "Besides, I wouldn't know a freak to have a unicorn friend of yours likes you."
I raised a brow. "Twilight?"
"Huh?" He then busted out laughing before shaking his head. "No, the other one. The rather cute brown unicorn."
I blinked before that 'memory' came up and quickly refiled into the databanks. "OH!" I said. "Uh.... y-yeah, I think she likes me... But... what about...." I rolled my hoof to emphasis, but dad shook his head.
"Don't worry about that." He said as he finished his donut and finished his coffee, picking out the sprinkles from the bottom. "Your... different now, you can easily still live a normal life, Maybe a better one, besides, you can adopt." he said before finding his quarry at the bottom of the mug.
"So you have no problems with it?" I asked, he replied with a shake of his head as he tried to lick the bottom of the mug, only to be refused his prize as his tongue wasn't long enough.
"Damn it, come here." He mumbled, getting a spoon to get at the sprinkles. "You shall be mine."
"But how---
Suddenly he slammed the mug to the table and growled. "Don't Do That!" he yelled, suddenly he got close and despite my height, weight, and greater strength, that was all forgotten by memories of how my dad was when he was furious with me.
"You are the best damn daughter ever, there's plenty of love left in you!" He yelled putting his hoof on my chest to emphasis. "You weren't brought back to mope! 'OH Poor Me, I'm a Frankenpony's Monster!' STOP IT!" He shouted as he managed to back me into a corner, bet that was an amusing sight, but hey, Daddy can be scary when mad.
"B-But---
"ARE YOU A FOAL STILL!?" Dad shouted, Ow my audio receptor ringed a bit! "Get over yourself, You have this beautiful mare interested in you and your being a whiny little foal, Your an adult, FUCK, YOUR A CYBORG!" He began to step back. "Grow up!" Finally his face softened into a sad one. "Don't do that to yourself... You have a new lease on life, honey. Take it!"
I blinked a few times, after he calmed down, he sighed, Let me clear something up, my dad was scary when he was mad, but he'd never hit me or mom, he was a loving father, not to say I never got a spanking for doing something really bad.... like exploding the kitchen.... but he was really sweet, and I do still love him.
I came up to him and rested my head on his shoulder. "Alright Dad...." I said with a sigh.
He was quiet for a time before chuckling. "Well, your still my little Bluey, only you'd rest your head on me like that."
I smirked and gave a small giggle. "It was difficult when I was a filly."
"Did you get the box?" He asked with a smile of his own.
I nodded, "Thanks for saving Sergeant Spear for me!" He grinned before I continued. "And my Ponyformers, nopony at the precinct realy understand how valuable they are now."
We talked through the evening til it was time for supper, Dragnet invited Dad over, but he had to refuse, having to report to Canterlot and write his report, I on the other hoof had a better idea.
Hooking myself to a zebrox printer, I printed out his report. He took the paper and just raised his brow. He recited to me what happened and I basicly printed it out for him.
"What?" I asked before adding. "Your report's done now, I cut your time in half."
He looked at the paper before shrugging, signing his name and folding it into a pouch on his armor. "Well, guess I could leave in the morning."
Dragnet clapped with the cutest squee you can think of, then grabbing both of us she pulled us out to the ponyville diner.
I sat down and Dragnet sat down next to Dad at our table.
"So, Mr. Silver Lining, how was your talk?" Dragnet asked, she was playing interrogator while I looked at the menu, sadly, not much I can eat here, hmmm... Damn does this sound good though.
"Yes," Dad said as he looked at me. "Honey, that's the foals menu."
I looked up at him before looking at the menu. "Yeah, so?" He raised a brow before I continued. "Sensitive and simple stomach, Dad. I can't eat whatever anymore, It needs to be a paste." I went back to the menu.
"Well, tell me," Dragnet continued. "What was Blue like as a foal?"
Dad pulled out the photo as I looked at the menu. "Oh she was very mischievous! She wanted to be a cop back then."
Dragnet giggled as she saw the photos of me in a police outfit as a filly for Nightmare Night. Mmmm! the gravy with mashed potatoes and oats can be good. DAMN! Can't eat pizza anymore! Shit this is torture!
Dad laughed. "She of course didn't get her cutie mark til school, when she was a hall monitor, she stopped somepony from breaking in and beat them with a club and cuffed them, yelling 'Stop Resisting Arrest!'" They laughed. "Turns out it was the new principle!"
Dragnet gasped before busting out laughing. "Was she in trouble?" Dad nodded.
"I could have told that story you know." I said glaring from over the Menu. "And I have you know, Mrs. Apple Skinner looked especially suspicious!"
Dad was chortling. "She was trying to unlock the door, sweety, it was recess."
"She was a part of he rebel alliance, and a traitor!" I argued. "And besides, she wouldn't stop resisting arrest!" I pouted, which just made Dragnet's heart melt.
The two bursted out laughing, apparently my glowing eyes wasn't enough to look intimidating at all in this situation, I just sighed and looked at the menu. Ooh, ice cream soda! I can have that, these are mostly deserts, but fuck it, I'll take the mashed oat potatoes and ice cream soda.
Once we had our orders and ate, Dad was telling another story of my time I was in school, I got into alot of trouble trying to 'arrest' the bullies for illegal drugs, But, I was right, as they had ionized salt on them, and they got into a ton of trouble. I was still punished though, which was bullshit.
(Adult Fun Time Warning!)
Once the evening ended, Dad bid us goodnight and we went back to our hotel, Dragnet plugged in my charge cable and I watched her crawl into bed, staring at me.
"Your dad's great!" she said as she polished her gun, then looked over her jacket with a sigh. "And this thing's ruined."
"I'm sorry, Draggy." I said as I looked at her jacket, it wasn't any police pony's jacket, it was her mother's, Dragnet's family is from a long line of police ponies. Even some royal guards. All the way back from the first golden age of equestria.
I scanned the jacket, it could be fixed by a skilled seamstress.... hmmm.... I know one pony...
Dragnet came up to me and draped herself over my back. "What are you thinking?" She began caressing my cheek. I'm still not used to this behavior from her.
"Nothing, thinking to think." I said, I had a plan, but it'll be a surprise.
Dragnet just nodded with a 'uh-huh.' and turned back to her bed.
"What's wrong, Dragnet?" I stupidly had to ask.
She looked at me with half lidded eyes. "Four years we were partners, almost five now.... You can't figure me out?" she said sitting in her bed looking at me, "Can't read me?"I came up to her as far as the charge cable could reach. "Why not do a scan? Maybe your inferred can figure it out?" DAMN! She was using a hot seductive voice! She keeps up my CPU will burn out!
"Dragnet, I..." I began only for her to cut me off.
"I told you, if nopony was interested, I'll take you myself!" she said. I did a double take.
I balked. "WHAT!?"
I think the whole town heard me. Dragnet was holding her ears before looking at me with a smile.
"That caught you off guard huh?"
"WELL DUH!" I said before shaking my head. "How could this work? We're partners, It's against the rules!"
Dragnet just shook her head. "Well, actually, Gravel and Nightstick are dating, nopony's stopping them."
I stammered for a time before she put her hoof over my lips. Those azure eyes were looking deep into my glowing blue ones. Damnit, I had to admit, even without a heart, I knew it be fluttering. Oh wait, my oil pump is taking that mantle.
"I talked with Gear, she said she made something for us both, and I had her install some things when you were in sleep mode before we left."
Her hoof went down and opened my chest hatch, pressing a pressure pad I had no idea was there, I yelped and jumped back away from her. She looked at me as though she saw me explode, twice.
"Blue, it's okay." She said as she kept her distance. "Look, if you don't want to...."
I sighed, "I'm being a child." I said as I looked up at her. "I... I do... but... This is kind of weird for me, I wanted my first to be with feeling, not a push of a button." I approached her and leaned against her. "Push it again... slowly this time."
It was terrifying but in a way, beautiful. I found out I do have an orgasm, I also found out what Dragnet meant about 'requesting new upgrades', She and Gear got to work together in adding new 'parts' to my body that was covered by armor. There was now a hatch that had to be opened, I wondered why Dragnet kept those tools in her bag, it was to open it.
The hatch was located at where it would be, inside was to my surprise, mare parts. though most of it was made of synthetic skin, it had enough feeling to work.
"It feels weird..." I said as I looked at it. It was like the real thing, my finger poked it and I felt it.
Dragnet looked at me, she was odd without her jacket and pistol reign on, but beautiful as well. "You'll be fine."
"I'm not backing out." I said, I had been laid out on the bed, though the mattress was taken off the frame. She went down and began her work. "EEK!" I yelped, not used to feeling of any kind. She pulled back and looked at me.
"Calm down!" She said. "I won't hurt you, you know that."
"I know." I sighed and nodded, she went down and started again, slowly this time, needless to say it felt nice, She used the power cable to keep me from jerking too much and, Gee, I wonder if she'll use chains on me for kinky stuff?
Shut up! I'm a cyborg who never had sex when alive, and now that I get it, I'm enjoying it! I hope she uses a cable whip!
As she continued, I eventually I got used to feeling again, and gosh the pleasure! It made me moan like I never thought I'd be able to again. Pleasure, a feeling I'd never thought I feel again, came back from the dead. Even my leg twitched as I laid back and enjoyed myself. "So, I take it oil don't taste good, huh?"
She came up with a smirk. "Actually it's not oil, it's something I requested."
When she got back to work I paused and raised a brow. "How many 'requests' did you ask for?"
Dragnet popped her head out from between my legs, fluids of some kind leaking from the side of her lips as she tapped her chin.
"See here, the 'pleasure pad' the 'synthetic skin', and more pleasure nodes.... hmmm... I lost count." She said before going back down, now I was curious what that stuff was, I did a reading of it.
Turns out I had secretion valves installed, they would leak synthetic pleasure fluids the same as a real mare would, it's safe for consumption.
Dragnet began to go a little faster than I was ready for, and had me squirming, Needless to say she wasn't expecting me to squeek and spray her face.
She pulled her head up and gave me a wide eyed stare. "Was not expecting that.... Where you like this before?"
I only nodded while whimpering. Oh yes, I was one of those girls. I wasn't expecting her to shove her crotch in my face though.
"Your turn!"
I got to work, and she couldn't keep up with me, hey, a cybernetic tongue? I'm putting that bad girl to use! Poor Dragnet wasn't as much of a fountain as I was (or used to be when alive) I can hold that honor between the two of us. She tasted good though, like a chocolate velvet cake! Delicious!
She laid down on top of me, playing with the presure pad a bit, after getting used to it, it got to be fun, sadly, she got tired and closed the panel up.
"Awww." I griped. "Don't stop..."
Dragnet sighed. "Blue, I'm exhausted, and I need rest." She said, however she continued to cuddle with me. I recalled her saying I was a wonderful hot water bottle. she grabbed her pillow and put it on my chest.
"Good night, Draggy."
"Night Blue...."
