Egomania
Chapter 7 Rifling
Previous ChapterNext ChapterToday's the day Pall is actually attempting to go out and find a surviving pony who might be a guard in hiding. My my they were right she's insane totally overboard. She went alone as well so yeah they better be praying for her life. Pall was walking on the same dirt path they had been on before when they were looking for the castle. She was feeling brave as she walks closer to the exit of the forest. And steps out and heads to the wrecked mess of ponyville. If she can't find a pony she'll just look around in the forest tomorrow. She makes it to pony and starts looking around and check the small places as she does. She realizes that those black beings weren't around it was really empty and quiet. Well guess there's no need to have your guard up then. So she freely walks around looking and looking some more. For what kinda felt like ten long minutes she got bored and decided to leave. But before she did she heard some noises.
"Huh?"
Pall heard the noises of something crunching the broken pieces of wood and was getting close. Pall's brain was screaming crazily at her to hide. She ran and hid behind a pile of burnt wooden wast. She peeked a little and saw one of those black bipedal beings. Wait there's only one here didn't they come in large packs?. This one is just alone out in the open was it making sure that there aren't any ponies around. For some reason Pall had an urge to beat up the thing hey it's alone so maybe she can try and defeat it without her magic. She jumped from behind the pile and ran to the thing's direction. She summoned her spear and threw it at the thing and the spear went through the thing's chest. Well not all the way through this attracted the things attention. However before it could react Pall kicks the spear through it's chest and watched as it falls to the ground.
"What?...."
Upon closer expecting to the thing's body she noticed that it didn't bleed nor had any blood at all. She looked at the hole she put in the thing's body and was confused. In the hole in it's chest is wasn't organic there was just wires sticking out of the chest.
"These things aren't organic and not fleshy either...w-wait a minute hold on these thing aren't organic they're...machines!".
Do to the surprising yet horrific news that the black biped beings are machines. Pall didn't know what to think but that doesn't give a specific explanation for why magic has no affect on them. Pall heard some noises proplepy the noise of those things who had come searching for one of their members. Pall didn't stay for a second and ran away to the everfree.
Meanwhile two miles away west from ponyville
A security robot with no legs but wheels runs to Binyamin Backing holding some sort of tablet.
"Sir one of the DGIs had caught video footage of a pony attacking the DGI that had recorded the attack".
Said the security robot
Binyamin looked confused when hearing the part that a pony attacked a DGI. And saw the footage that shown a black mare with pink eyes running away into the forest.
"Wait there's one pony still alive?"
"Yes sir"
The look of surprised left Binyamin's face and the look of seriousness took it's place.
"....When the construction my HQ is completed send some spy drones to look in the forest".
"Immediately after it's construction yes sir".
The security robot gave a saluted and went off to do it's business. It's odd a pony had survived the attack and is fighting back. She may be just one pony but there could be others hiding in that forest. Binyamin couldn't help but chuckle a little the mare looked tough. But can she even fight more then one at the same time though. Binyamin went into the airship to chill and work on those security concepts.
In the everfree
Pall had arrived back to the castle and shut the big doors behind her. She went to the throne room and found everypony there.
"Good to see that your in one big piece".
Said Cloud
"Yeah yeah anyways I've made a surprising discovery Those black bipeds aren't organic they're robots".
The room went quite upon hearing that. They're all surprised and a little scared. They couldn't utter a single word out.
"Yes it was horrifying for me to handle".
"Wait how did you made this discovery?".
Spot asked
"I attacked one of them"
Pall said
"....You what?"
"I threw a spear through it's chest and there was no blood leaking out. And the inside of it was all wires metal and some carbon fiber".
"Oh goodness Pall you could've been dead but At least we now know a little bit about them. We only know two things about them but not were they come from who created them why magic has no affects on them and why they are attacking us".
"Well they're robots and the only species that have such an ability to create robots would have to come from somewhere. Where us ponies don't exist at somewhere out of this world.
Said Stormy Wings
"Well aliens are the only beings that have such an IQ to create advanced technology beyond our abilities".
Said Spot
"Do you read War Of The Worlds?".
Iota asked
"I uuuhhhhh well uuhhh maybe I mean no sigh all of this looks an awful lot like an alien invasion so we're under attack by aliens".
"Well your not wrong...you could be right all the technology is pretty sketchy from the looks of it".
After some time of talking everypony agreed that these invaders are aliens from outer space. Well that's what they will think for a little while but they got it all wrong now tomorrow is the next day Pall will go out the castle. But this time she will venture out into the forest and find a lone pony.
Author's Note
If any of you are curious about why I made the part where Iota asked Spot if he was reading the war of the world's book well I gotten that idea from a mlp comic dub video where Equestria was attacked by Martians and I must say that was an enteresting concept if you like my fanfic let me know bye
