//-------------------------------------------------------// Egomania -by Xaw- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3 Attack Of Machines //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3 Attack Of Machines The airship loomed over the town eerily all the ponies were starting to have butterflies in their stomachs. Some of them went into their homes hiding and hoping the thing in the darkened sky would thankfully go away. And some others stared at the airship as if in a trance and others reacted in a way where in a random moment they saw a UFO and took out their cameras and took pictures of the thing. Suddenly a hole opened at the bottom of the enormous futuristic airship. And came out were a pack of odd looking frying things flying from the airship. And were flying down towards the town the closer they got the more the ponies started to go from. Nervous to worry and quickly to fear when the. Flying things were close enough they started to fire laser beams at the buildings. Now the ponies were straight up scared and started running for their lives. The buildings that were shot by the lasers started to catch fire. And the ponies in those buildings ran out scared and looking helpless. The flying things that came out of the airship weren't alone though oh no the airship was slowly flouting down. And out came were strange black bipedal beings. Their bodies looking like armor they stood over seven feet tall. They had green glowing eyes and at the place where their right hands are supposed to be. Had their place taken be weird looking things that seem to be weapons of sort. "Hey" screamed two guards they ran towards the one of the odd armored bipedal things. The things didn't seem to be phased one of the things raised it's right arm before the two guards could even react. A beam of light shot from the thing's right arm and made contact with the guards. Immediately after the guards turned to sandy looking dust. This made the ponies much more scared. Then the things started shooting light beams everywhere in many directions. The beams hit some of the ponies turning them to dust. One of the things shot at another guard and turned it's head towards Pall's direction. Pall yelped and was dodging the beams and some hit the ponies that ran in the way of the beams. Pall ran away fast but the black bipeds kept shooting at her as she ran out of there. Pall was running in the streets of ponyville trying to escape. But ponies were running everywhere making difficult to find a way out. But she finally got out of the town Iota showed up. And now both Pall and Iota were running beams were being shot at them. The things were shooting at them and weren't even running after them. They just walk as they shot at Pall and Iota in a calm manner. "Come on we're almost there". Pall says running out of breath. "Hold on are we going to the everfree forest?!". Iota ask seemingly not expecting to be heading to the forest. "Seems like it". Pall says her voice sounding really exhausted. When they made it in front of the entrance to the forest they both look back to see the things twenty nine feet away from. Still walking in that calm manner and still shooting at them. "Well Sis there's no other place to go except in there". "But there are dangerous creatures in there we will die". "We will die if we stayed here debating about this besides what choic do we have?". Pall says not really in the mood to be slowed down by Iota. Pall was right if they stay the things will catch up and turn them to dust right there on the spot. A beam flew right past her head that seemed to be enough to make her have no choice but to go in. "Sigh...fine". They both ran in the forest as two beams of light missed them. Hitting only a couple of tree branches. Mean while at Canterlot The sky was grimly darkened just like how it was at ponyville. And it was raining as well even some thunder thundering away in the clouds. It didn't stay quiet when an identical airship similar to the one that attacked ponyville. Hovered over Canterlot and brought havoc upon the city. It too had sended those flying things upon the city and they shot at every building that was in. Their sight many of Canterlot's citizens ran and scream avoiding the fires that were caused. By them even those black bipedal beings also came and did exactly what their brethren did to ponyville's citizens. Turning each pony to dust and not even giving a single. Chanc to those who trip and fell any time to get back on their hooves. Every time they turn to dust they'd look like how a tower of. Wet sand had dried up after a long day of exposure to the hot sun and eventually falling into a pile of dry sand. The elements of harmony were their they used their magic on these beings. But before their magic could even touch it disappeared when that rainbow beam of magic. Was three feet away from them to be axact. They frozed in shock and were struggling to find words. Before they do or say anything they were immediately turned to dust all except for Fluttershy. Fluttershy was petrified and looked to be on the urge to cry. At the very moment she saw her friends turned to dust meaning that. They are now gone and she was alone. Fluttershy's sadness turned to anger and looked towards the beings. She furious and tried to use her very powerful death stare move on them. She keeps doing this but nothing was working her stare doesn't have any affects on them. Before she could question the meaning for why her stare powers didn't work they started firing at her. Making her run away in petheticness fear and confusing and flew away out of Canterlot. Author's Note So if anyone likes spring break oh I'm definitely on the 100% level as all of ya guys but I feel spring break doesn't start til like what? next month maybe? ah don't know and nice day to you all๐Ÿ˜ //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 4 Hide Part 1 //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 4 Hide Part 1 Pall and Iota kept running and running they dare didn't stop until they were faraway from the entrance of the forest and they were faraway from the entrance of the forest. Then they finally stopped feeling that they are faraway enough for them to stop and rest when they reached. The spot they almost fell backwards when they tried to lay down they were exhausted so much so that they almost blacked out. Their lungs finally settled down letting them breath normally. Now that they are resting Iota has some questions. She wants to know what that attack on ponyville was all about. They destroyed ponyville and turned all the ponies into dust piles. It was horrible of them to attack everypony but there could be a reason for this right?. They must have a reason for this sudden turmoil that occurred. Anyways they are in the forest now the need to hide somewhere but where are they supposed to stow away at?. Also they needed to be out of the rain as well. The only place in the everfree that could be helpful is the abandoned castle of the two sisters. Of course the castle would be a great place to avoid danger. "So where do we find some sanctuary at?". Iota asked "Well the only place that would be of help is the old castle Queen Twilight mentions sometimes you know the old castle of the two sisters It's the only place where we can go". "The castle of Celestia and Luna?" "Yeah that's the place...you wish to come?" Pall says "Of course I don't want to stay out here for another minute but what about the creatures of the forest?". "What about them look at what those black bipedal things did to that cockatrice over there". Pall points to a scared cockatrice hiding in a tree quivering. If those things scared the life out of the cockatrice then that would mean that the forest isn't that of a dangerous place. Thanks to them all the monsters in the forest aren't interested in hunting down prey. And that both of them could get to the castle fast in no time at all they won't be slowed down. They have no need to be scared of walking in the darkness there's pretty much nothing that could stop them from arriving at there destination. "Alright to the castle we go" Onward to the castle they go nothing can bother them from getting to the castle...well hopefully nothing. If there was something that could do the job of stopping two mares. It would possibly be the things that wouldn't have to do much to stop some guards. Those things can just turn a living creature to dust so yeah they don't have to do any combat. The two walked on the dirt path there's no need to leave the dirt path it's the only path that can get them there. It had been a few minutes since they first started walking but they might be getting close. It was still raining and none of them had any umbrellas but they do have there hoodies. Well there not much but did keep them warm and kinda dry so yeah. It was quite it was kind odd the the everfree to be dead silent but they ignored it. A snap of a stick came from the woods that were next to the right side of the trail. Was that a snap? eh it could've been a squirrel roaming about. Four seconds later there was a secent snap coming from the woods. Iota thought that one was from a bunny but was it though?. Two more snaps were made in the darkness of the woods. Pall was starting to have some suspicions about the snapping of the twigs in the woods. Iota was went from feeling normal about the snapping of twigs to feeling as if something wasn't right. Then a few green lights glowed in the darkness. Wait those green lights they look familiar. Then it hit them those green lights are the eyes of the things that attacked ponyville. "Ah shoot!" Screamed Pall Pall grabbed Iota and was now carrying her and started running. Pall has been running real fast but were those things chasing them?. If they were Iota would be giving the details and stuff. Pall kept running until the castle was in view. Yes the castle she ran some more and finally. They made across the castle's moat the second they were inside. They both pushed the two big doors closed. They made it now They just sat there with their backs resting up against the doors. It was a close call but now they're safe within the walls of the castle. Nothing can get to them in the castle now. Meanwhile Ponyville was in disarray almost half of the town was on fire. There were no ponies in the town anymore they all were gone because of the machines. They blasted each and every pony that had been targeted. Even though it was raining it didn't slay the burning fires that rest on the buildings of the nice town. Inside the airship there stood a bulky wide shouldered figure his full appearance was hidden in the shadows. Of the airship's control and pilot room. Both his right eye colored red and left eye colored blue. Were glowing in the shadows he looked at one of the monitors. That showed the wrecked sight of the town. The look in his eyes showed that he was pleased with this. He grabbed a microphone and spoke in his deep bulky man voice. "Alright DGIs we're done here return back the the airship". The black bipeds known as DGIs hopped in the flying machines and flew up to the airship. When they all had returned the figure grabbed a futuristic phone. And called an anonymous person. "The ponies are gone now now construction can begin now". "Roger that partner" Said the anonymous person who the figure was talking to and hanged up. Author's Note Some of you may be wondering who is this figure that was hiding in the shadows well that was one of the robot trouncers named Binyamin Backing he's the king of security who will always makes sure that everything has some security on order to be safe and yes he's one of the robot trouncers meaning there's more of them and the black robots that attack the ponies are called DGIs if you have any questions about them don't hesitate to ask //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 5 Hide Part 2 //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 5 Hide Part 2 Pall looked out one of the windows of the castle to see if those things were there. Thank goodness nothing in front of the castle. Pall felt relieved she sat down and escaped reality. She had a day dream in that daydream she was being worshiped by those who Pall knows. Pall was dressed like a queen she herself is the queen in the reality she wished to be real. She was being called the greatest mare in the whole world all species bowd to her respectfully oh how is this not even real she wishes to be queen. But that purple annoying mare who's the queen wouldn't give up her crown if Pall even dared asked. For it to be handed to her she desires for Queen Twilight to be dead gone. But the elements of harmony would try to stop her no matter what. Well after what happened to the ponies Pall believes that if ponyville and it's inhabitants are then Canterlot and it's inhabitants are gone as well including the queen and her friends. Pall was pulled out of her daydream by the sound of something trying to pull the castle's doors open. Pall got up and ran down stairs to the big doors and found Iota standing five feet away from the doors. "Who's at the door?" "I don't know but it could be those things trying to get in". Iota said sounding very afraid. With the glowing of her horn Pall summon her deadly golden spear and was pointing it towards the door. "Iota open the door" "I beg your pardon?!" "Just open the door" Iota didn't want to be told a third time so she did just that she opened the doors fast and ran when they were opened the way. To Pall's surprise stand outside weren't the things at all no standing outside were survivors. And they were the guards Pall was with when they were sent to ponyville to try and settle things down. Their names are BlueViolet Cloud Red Stormy Wings and Spot. They all were here well almost all. They look kinda beaten up but still tough then ever to avoid becoming a dust pile. "Holly Molly I could've killed you all". Pall says sounding a little annoyed. But was also glad that she's not the only guard who survived the unexpected avalanche of black bipedal beings. Before anything else could be said Pall looked behind them to see two of the black armored looking bipeds pointing their right arms at them. Pall pulled them all inside fast before they could be shot. "What a close call" "What was that for?" "Those things were about to blast you guys thanks to me your safe now" "Uhhhhhh thanks I guess?" Well now there are survivors in the castle now and this was great news to Pall. Because if she acted like a hero they would treat her like one. And that she would be a leader who will fight against these unknown attackers. As long as they stay out of the way then Pall's dream of becoming queen would finally come true. But judging by how things look this is not enough of an army that can push roughly. She needed a big army for when the time comes for it. How is she going to get a big army....that's it Pall thought in her mind secretly. She can find a survivor who is still kicking like an energetic young pony. And use a cloning spell tlon this pony but the task won't be graceful. She would had to be careful out there and avoid attracting attention to herself. Then when she a surviving pony she can take he or she back to the castle to make this army. It definitely wouldn't even matter to her if some clones died they were only going to be there as a distraction. Yes yes this will work hopefully they don't slow her down. "So are we going to spend the rest of our lives in this castle just curious cuz I'm a new guard a-and this is something I wasn't prepared for". Said the week spotted teen stallion. "We won't for long we have to stand up against these invaders who ever they are. They are not going to just make us fear them we have to fight in one way or another". But how thought there's only seven of us here how are we going to do that?. Asked the blood red stallion. "Simple we need a pony". Said Pall "What do you mean by that?". Asked the Pegasi guard named Cloud. "What I mean is that we are going to make a clone army now it may be hard to find a survivor out there but it's going to be worth it". Your gonna find a survivor out there? oh no too dangerous absolutely stupid and dumb". Said the Pegasi guardsmare named Stormy Wings. "Pall are you doing well?" Asked BlueViolet "Cuz you already lost a few just now". Now Pall felt insulted and her anger is sprouting a little bit. Of course what she said is insane and life dangering but who cares. It's the only way to get Equestria back from them no matter if they like it or not. But now they are just going to wait for a perfect day to find a pony and make some clones and survive the best they could. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 6 Two Sides Of The Anecdote //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 6 Two Sides Of The Anecdote Two miles away west of ponyville Binyamin Backing's HQ was being built. His HQ is a tall black skyscraper that is similar to that of the skyscrapers from erath. It was built to be a highly secured head quarters where he would build security technology. Since he's the head urban security he'll be sure the new inhabitants who are replacing pony kind will be safe from either dangerous monsters or power hungry monarchs. He will make the greatest security tech these colorful ponies don't have. The HQ will have dart shooting security cameras lasers that detect movement. Strong tight doors with strong locks and an army of security robots. He's packed isn't he Binyamin even has a wall around his HQ that doesn't just stop intruders from getting over the wall no it goes underground as well so there's no point in digging your way in the head quarters. He knows in the future none robot intruders would try to break in but he's way ahead of them. Binyamin goes for a little walk around the destroyed town that had once used to be ponyville now its all burned and wrecked. Now that Binyamin was outside his full appearance was now shown in the rainy environment. He himself is a machine! just like the DGIs he looks to be seven feet tall. His body is black like the DGIs his right eye was red and the left is blue. He has a body of someone who goes to the gym a lot he has wide shoulders. He wore a security guard hat that had the word security on it. He sometimes stops to look at the destruction he had made. "Now that they're all gone now he may live a life of freedom hopefully". He says looking spaced out about who ever this anonymous person is. Who ever this anonymous he must be a victim of these ponies who had wronged him in an unmerciful way. Binyamin looks a little tense it's really odd how a robot like Binyamin shows an awfully lot of emotions. Robots on earth were never built that way they were never given free will nor sentience. But he and the others are different from their earth brethren. Now it seems robots are the dominant ones now but they aren't bad Binyamin and the other robots felt pity for him. But ponies are no more now. Even though Binyamin is a big robot he's actually a softy. That was one thing that was programmed into his personality he's intimidating but friendly. Binyamin sat on the huge broken piece that broke of the building and listened to the falling of the rain. He liked the sounds the rain made he liked the view of the fire being put out by the rain oh how slowly the fire shrank with each slow second. The ponies they may look trust worthy and kind on the outside but deep down they were nothing but pigs wait no monsters is more of a word that suits their horrid actions. Good thing there were other robots attacking all the towns and cities of Equestria right now. All of them will be populated by robots and they always have this idea that robots can be better the organic life some may agree and others not so likely but robots aren't wrong humans used to be harsh back in the old days but that's in the past. "Well time to work on some security tech concepts they will be of great use. And would give a lot of grace for all who need it's protection....am I talking to myself?...eh And so with Binyamin heading to some other places. Maybe outside of ponyville Binyamin had concepts not just for his HQ and the security system. But he also had concepts for ponyville and the little places like the farm the park and other places. Meanwhile in the everfree The others didn't like the way Pall thinks up ideas for everything. Right now they are all planning on having Pall get taken to an asylum after when all of this will pass. She's stupid crazy but she doesn't even give the slightest care about it. She's going out there alone it's best to do it alone because they'll just be in the way. She'll plan to go find a survivor to make a clone army tomorrow and if she doesn't have luck finding a pony she'll try again the next day. If there's no luck on the secent day well she won't stop she's relentless. But soon when she finds a lone pony that's when the others will learn to respect her way of thinking and will treat her as the leader...egotistical isn't she?. "Soon Equestria will by my own world I'll be queen and if nopony likes that...oh well sadly they will be beheaded". She says facking a sad voice Somewhere else Flying in the air there was a young human boy in some flying contraption. His hair wine red his skin tone a very light rose color. His eyes honey orange colored he wore a red hoodie with a lavender purple shirt underneath. Mahogany red shorts and Mahogany red lace less sock shoes. He seems to be twelve years old and the flying contraption he was in is called the Ace Mobil. He was flying over the everfree forest and then flew over the wrecked town of ponyville. He looked down at the destruction caused by the machines he seemed to be smiling a little. He flew in his Ace Mobil to the city of Canterlot when he made it there he looked at the destroyed city. When he did he kinda had the look of...pain in his eyes but quickly collected himself. He flew to the Canterlot castle and parked the Ace Mobil outside the front doors of the castle. He hopped out and walked the the castle entrance and opened the doors. Before he stepped through the doors he looked behind him to take a secent look at the city and finally he stepped in the castle and closed the doors behind him. Author's Note After I made this chapter I just have this one question I want to ask....who's side are you on? because if any of you have a hard time knowing when someone is or isn't egotistical well then you might have to google what are the signs of an egotistical individual alright imma go and chill now bye๐Ÿ– //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 7 Rifling //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 7 Rifling Today'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 //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 8 Fluttershy! //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 8 Fluttershy! It was midnight and Iota couldn't sleep at all she was restless. Do to the discovery Pall made today it was hard to get all of that out of her head. All she can do is just look out the castle's old aged windows. She wasn't surprised to see that it is still raining outside it always rained since those robots came out of the blue. Iota believed in the existence of extraterrestrial life and thought that ponies and aliens could live in peace. But the miracle of that never came to be. Since Iota is a thirteen year old naive mare she would block out the fact that aliens want nothing to do with being friends with ponies. And just wanna take over a planet and either turn ponies into slaves or exterminate them. She still believes there could be good in aliens they just need a chance to bring out their friendly side. Yeah maybe if she could convince them to stop show that they aren't all that bad there will be everlasting peace in the world. Iota moved away from the window and out of dullness she looked around the room and absorve everything she sees. Her eye caught sight of something laying on the ground. She got up and walked over to the thing laying on the ground and sees that it is a journal?. "A journal?" She picked up the journal and upon having a close look at the journal there was a piece of paper taped on it. On the paper it says Ace's journal the name Ace sounded familiar to Iota. She opened the journal to the first page. Page 1 May 18 2034 I'm Ace Bosco I don't know what happened but all I remember is that I got sucked into a bright light and woke up in this forest. I wasn't familiar with this forest nor with it's inhabitants. I was lost and tried to find my way out of the forest but the darkness of the forest made it kinda hard to do so. Judging by the darkness of the forest I assume it could be either six or seven in the morning. I somehow made it out of the forest when I was out I say a town in the distance. I found a sign that welcomed me to this town when looking at the sign I was a tad bit confused. On the sign it says welcome to ponyville it is absurd of a town to be named after an animal but I digress. Page 2 May 18 2034 I must say I like how this town looked even though this town has a weird name. It look pretty nice there was a little flower shop and a bakery that resembles that of a gingerbread house. I wonder if it was really made out of gingerbread anyways there was a bowling alley. Some restaurants and other things a town always has. But after a minute I felt as if I were being watched I turned around to see no one or nothing spying on me. I started to feel hungry went to a fruit stand now what I'm doing is wrong but I didn't had my wallet. So I have to take a few fruits and I'm really sorry for it. Before I could leave I hear the sound of hooves hitting the ground when I turn to see the cause of the noise there was a anthropomorphic pony running towards me with a frying pan. "Whoever this journal belongs to they may not be from Equestria". Iota says in her head Before Iota turns to the third page she walked to the window and saw somepony outside walking to the castle. Iota goes downstairs to the entrance of the castle when she was standing at the door she opened the door a crack. And sees Fluttershy outside the door all wet and cold. "Fluttershy! oh my goodness your alive come in quickly". "Thanks" Fluttershy says as she walks in the castle to escape the rain. "Holly Celestia your alive" Iota gives Fluttershy a hug Fluttershy gives a tighter hug back. Fluttershy was glad to see other ponies still alive after the attack of those machines. She was scared badly after witnessing the permanent death of her friends. Meanwhile at Canterlot The human boy was sleeping in a large that definitely belonged to royalty. He was sleeping peacefully he felt warm and safe under the big blanket. But then he started having nightmares and whatever they may be about it could have something to do with something in this none human world. Finally he had wakened up from those atrocious nightmares of thorns. "Gasp......sigh stupid nightmares" He sat there letting his lungs and heart settle down after seeing those nightmares. Such problems they can cause people the trouble the put on your shoulders. He was now tired and hungry he hadn't ate when he arrived at this castle. "They didn't get me food I had to sneak out of the forest for it. But now there will be none of that surviving in the woods nonsense anymore" He got up from the bed and grabbed what seemed to be a fermob balad lamp and turned it on. He stepped out of the room and out in the hall he was. It was dark in the castle halls and almost creepy looking at this time of hour. He kept walking around trying to find the kitchen in this castle. But he didn't find any luck though he felt so tired that finding a kitchen in a big castle was just meaningless already. Before giving up he saw a door that leads to the kitchen. "Finally" He walks into the kitchen he found a bowl of fruit sitting on the counter. Looks at the nice looking and colorful fruit he had starved for. But he couldn't stand there and admire the fruits for long he started to feel paranoid about something. He doesn't know what he's paranoid about but it be better to admire all these fruits somewhere else. He grabs the fruit bowl and headed out. He's in the hallway fast walking to the room he almost trip on himself. For some reason he slowly turned his head to look behind him. For a minute no one nor nothing was there he stared in the darkness. His eyes adjusted a little then there was a pony like shadow figure in the hallway. He panicked and rubbed at his eyes he opened them and the shadow figure was gone. "Oh....oh my I was just seeing things". The human boy had calmed down after having a bad hallucinating and went to the room to finally eat the fruit in peace. In the abandoned castle Iota was showing Fluttershy the journal she'd found and showed her the first two pages of the journal. "On this journal there's the name Ace sounded so familiar". "Now that you mentioned it I think that journal belongs to that human who was held in Canterlot captivity two months ago" Fluttershy says "Really?....oh of course! that explains the name. Even the journal is so familiar I see the human with it but I never read his journal. I always wondered what he was writing in this journal but now that I now who the owner of the journal is. But now we know that he's not from Equestria. "Really?" Fluttershy says "Yeah it says in the first page Ace Bosco was sucked into a bright light. And woke up in the everfree forest and found ponyville". Both of the mares were now silent do to the realization hitting them in their faces. And it seems they know this human kinda. Now they wonder if he's still alive out there somewhere. "Hopefully the those black bipedal beings didn't hurt him". Fluttershy says "About that those things are actually machines". Iota says "Wait...what!" Author's Note My goodness I might have more time finishing the rest of this story after next week will pass it might be done during summer break speaking of which what do you all do during spring break? I'm a lazy introvert so I like being lazy sleepy and I like eating too //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 9 Spies //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 9 Spies Inside the futuristic airship hovering in the dark clouded sky. Many silver colored robots wearing glasses with little mics attached to them. Were given this task of getting some spy drones ready to go to the everfree forest. To find that mare who already caused the robots to get a little tense but when these drones find. The very hiding spot where she's located at they can send some DGIS and orb tanks to take care of the situation. And continue with the recreation of country Equestria which will soon be renamed Robotica. Now Binyamin's HQ's construction is completed now the drones are ready. "Drones in a perfectly straight line check. Perfectly working cameras check. Perfectly working perpellers check all right ready to go" The perpellers of the drones started spinning and lifting the drones of the ground. And up in the air and to the forest they go. They flew above the the forest and the cameras looked down at the forest. At the HQ the robots and Binyamin looked at the large flat screen monitors. Now seeing what the drones see they paid close attention to the screens and as the camera moved around. The view of an abandoned castle came in full view on camera the drones flew to the castle. They got closer and closer now seeing the castle up close all the robots took a good look at the castle. To acknowledge the details of the plants that grow on the old bricks the castle is made of. The oldness that made the castle many centuries old. And the beauty the castle has even though there's nothing beautiful about it but the robots think it is. "Let's have a look at the windows". Said Binyamin The drones flew to the old windows each one checking through them. The drones go to each window of the castle when there was nothing there. When one drone went to a random window there was a pony not the one that attacked one of the DGIs. This one was colored red had a beard and seems to stand over seven feet tall. He seems to be talking to someone but the drone didn't have a chance to see who the red pony was talking to. Because the drones was almost spotted by the pony. "Well now we know where she's hiding at and she has some friends with her". "That mare who attacked our DGI is leaving the castle sir". Said a random robot "Huh?" Binyamin looks at the monitors and sees the black mare leaving the castle. If Binyamin had to guess the mare might be heading out of the forest. But the mare wasn't and that left Binyamin confused about the mare heading to the woods. "What is she doing?" Binyamin asked Pall's POV Pall headed out into the woods she does this because she has this idea that a. Surviving member of the royal guard is out in these woods somewhere. And if there is a royal guard out there alive and well Pall could make a clone army with this survivor. And take back Equestria and she kinda plans on stealing the technology from the robots to become powerful. Ponies plus technology equals power with the tech ponies can be insurmountable and advanced. And maybe she can oppress the entire nameless planet ponies and all races in the world that never named this planet. But after all of this is done she will name this planet after herself. And take Queen Twilight's throne since when Fluttershy arrived at the castle last night she told everypony about the death of the Mane Sixe. Now that the queen is dead Pall will be the permanent ruler of the country. Pall walked three minutes away from the castle unexpectedly she came across an empty camp spot. There was an empty orange tent and a pile of wood that looked as if it. Was burned a month ago wait this camp spot looks awfully familiar. Pall doesn't know why but she feels as if she had seen this stuff before. "This stuff looks familiar but why though?". But she couldn't remember because she felt like she was being watched. Have you ever felt like something was burning the back of your head. Well that's axactly what Pall. Was feeling and she doesn't know who or what was watching her she looked in all directions. She felt high alert after that moment where Pall and Iota were being followed by those robots. She went and try to hide so she can see the stalker. "Ok this is going nowhere I'm not leaving until I get my hands on this anonymous creep". Binyamin's POV "What is this pony even doing". Binyamin asked The pony who the robots are seeing on the monitors was being...a little odd. She was looking all directions around and went under a thick coverage of the woods. Out of the view of the drone swarm now she can never be seen. "Well we didn't one but more survivors hiding in that castle. Alright get th-...oh wait we don't have the necessary equipment to deal with those surviving ponies. Oh boy what to do what to do". Binyamin walked around in a circle trying to think of what to do. "Oh I forgot I'll have one of my robot brothers to hand over the big guns that can take care of the ponies". Binyamin grabs his phone and calls one of his brothers. A robot named Enzo had picked up. "This is Enzo speaking how may I help ya partner". Enzo said speaking in a southern accent "Enzo is your factory up and running?" "Sure is partner I'm already making a kinds of things". "Good I need a little favor from you". "Let me guess y'all got survivors in hiding like little varmints?". At the abandoned castle Well Pall's search had to be annoyingly cut short because someone or something was stalking her. Great at this rate it will already be too late for her to take control over Equestria and the whole world. She'll never win when these stupid machines are standing in her way. Ruining her chances of gaining power the power to make all submit to her. "Your back early" Said Iota "I'd changed my mind and decided to stay at the castle castle". Said Pall sounds defeated and went upstairs to have some alone time. Pall was in a random room of the castle looking through the window not happy at all. She didn't want to cancel her search but what can she do when she's got the feeling that she was being watched. She saw something that distracted her from her unhappy mood. She saw a little swarm of whatever those things are flying away in the distance. Author's Note Originally the human character in this story named Ace Bosco is one of the old characters I made up back somewhere between 2014 and 2015 he was originally was the main antagonist in my imaginations about him invading Equestria and he was originally named Lord Arjun but when some years went by he kinda disappeared from my head until he finally returned back into my head last year in 2021 his design was old and so I scrapted everything about him and decided that he should be more of a character who is a victim of these anthropomorphic ponies and he's also an egg head if you like the story well I hope the story born in the world of my mind was an ok story bye ๐Ÿ‘‹ //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 10 Enzo //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 10 Enzo Iota was showing the journal that belongs to Ace to the group apart from Pall. They looked at some of the pages and they agreed with Iota about the owner of the journal being from another world. Spot "Yep the owner is from another world one hundred percent". Said Spot BlueViolet "What's peculiar about this is that this Ace fellow is that he was in ponyville one time and I just don't know why that's ringing a lot of bells". Said BlueViolet Stormy Wings "Well this Ace fellow reminds me of that bipedal being called a human that we saw two months ago". Said Stormy Wings Spot "Could that be a coincidence?". Ask Spot Stormy Wings "I uuhhhh I don't know to be honest it may or may not be". Said Stormy Wings Iota "The one thing I don't think is a coincidence is the name Ace". Red "Ace?...is he that human we captured two months ago?". Iota "Yes the human" They all went quite they never expected Iota to know the name of that human who was in their captivity two months ago. Did she talk with this human? well that could explain why she sounds like she knows a lot about him. Cloud "Wait you talked with the human did anypony knew about this?". No pony had an answer for Cloud's question so none of didn't know. Iota was talking with the human nor was on his side. Iota "Yes I know but Ace was a good uuhhhh person he said and that he's no threat to us all. I mean if he was he would've done horrible things to us alread but did he?". None of them answered she's right if he was a danger to them he wouldn't be just sitting there and not do anything. Is their something wrong with pony kind? is this the reason why machines are attacking them?. Maybe it's the cruelty they inflicted on the poor human and that attracted the attention of these sensitive human caring robots. At Appleloosa Located south far away from ponyville there once was a town called Appleloosa. It was one of the towns in Equestria that was targeted by robots and now a large Mega Factory. Stands in the place of the town that no longer exists. But this factory isn't like one of those factories that pollute the air or something no. This Factory is one of a kind its wind powered and solar powered and it is so large that details couldn't be given to you professionally. This Factory was in charge of the of a southern accent speaking robot named Enzo and he is the one in control of all the homes vehicles and Technology built in this very factory. And he's also the one providing help for Binyamin Backing. Like a southern person he's an okay robot and chilled out unless he's got the equipment bills to take care of those surviving ponies Binyamin discovered the existence of in the forest. Enzo "Hey Binyamin I got them big guns ready for y'all and heading yours way now". Binyamin "Already? Wow guess there won't be any time wasted at all that's good fast work Enzo". Enzo Oh shucks this factory being a none time waster is the best thing about the factory". Enzo walked in a long black floor tiled hallway. To the right side of the hall there are windows. That gave a view of how things are built in this factory. Robot arms with blasters use the blasters to build all the things Enzo is giving to this country that will be populated by machines. Homes vehicles home appliances and even the tech that was used to get rid of those ponies. Are all build in this factory ponies would dream of having but such a fantasy never becomes reality. Enzo "If this factory ain't fast then what's even up with us then?". Binyamin "Oh almost forgot I also need some urban security tech as well". Enzo "It'll be done partner bye" Enzo hangs up and looks at his factory. Appreciating the thing's he's doing since he's a peace longing robot. He wishes the same thing Binyamin and the others wished for. A new world can be on the mend if. And the only way for it to be on the mend if ponies were whipped from the face of this planet. When they are there will be no more catastrophes caused by ponies. One time a boy who's species is familiar to the robots. A human boy told them that he was locked up in a government building. In the custody and the harsh full and unholy mercy of the ponies. They tried making attempts to experiments on him and those experiments involved needles and blades. These experiments look similar to what humans did whenever there was an alien or cryptid discovered by the government back on earth. Enzo "Soon when this hear country is fully cleaned out out. I be finer then frog hair split four ways yep". He adjusts his construction worker looking helmet on his head. And makes his way somewhere in the factory to do his usual. He stops when he sees two anthropomorphic half bug half pony creatures. Flying to the windows of the right side of the hall he was in. Enzo "What in tarnation!" Exclaimed Enzo as he ran fast when he saw this odd bug and horse like creatures. Flying towards his direction they'd crash through the window sending little bits of broken glass flying everywhere. Enzo "Geez ya varmints didn't even give me a warning let alone a heads up. And ya bugs are gonna pay for that". Changeling 1 "Ok first of all we're changelings not bugs and secent your going down". Changeling 2 "Yeah" Enzo "Huh? Changelings? never heard of y'all". Changeling 2 "That doesn't matter what does is that you should be stopped right hear right now". Said the changeling that stands to the left of the first changeling. Enzo "Exactly how are y'all going to do that?". Enzo asked Changeling 1 "Oh we're going to stop you in many ways possible no matter how long it takes. Or how hard it'll be to make you fall". Enzo "Go ahead varmints show me what ya got". Changeling 1 and 2 "With pleasure" They both said in unison Changeling 1 flew towards Enzo with a fist out. As if time had froze Enzo grabbed the changeling's arm before it could make contact. Enzo threw the changeling out the same windows the changeling 1 and it's companion had unexpectedly crashed through. But Enzo forgot they can fly and well throwing didn't stop changeling 1. Changeling 2's horn glows he shoots two beams of magic but oddly. Those beams didn't have any affects on Enzo he looks as if untouched. Enzo smirked when their magic didn't do anything to him. Enzo "Y'all gonna do more then just shoot ya fellers magic beams at me. If it ain't obvious already we're machines. Magic does nothing and is nothing to us all". Said Enzo Changeling 1 "Ok then so we'll use our fist instead". Changeling 1 threw a fist at Enzo's face the changeling thought that machines can get hurt. But trying to harm a robot ends up in have your hand almost broken. Changeling 1 "Ah geez ow why are you hard solid?". Enzo "Heh I'm a robot I don't get brused bleed nor get sick heck I'm not even organic partner. Speaking of which who are y'all and why are ya varmints here?". Enzo demanded Changeling 2 "You none organics had brought extinction on pony kind. And taken this whole country as if it's yours to take and killed all the griffins at griffin stone". Said the changeling being angry. Enzo "Wish I can tell ya why but it's clear that you don't wanna hear it". Changeling 2 "Tell us why now" Enzo "And if I don't?" Changeling 2 "We wi-uuuuuhhhh... shoot what are we going to do?". Changeling 1 "Well shoot I honestly don't have a clue". Seems the changelings are in a little sticky situation. They really don't know what to do to Enzo he said he's not organic which means he can't feel pain. So how are they going to win in this fight. As they stood there too distracted to keep their eyes on him. Enzo grabs out a gun looking similar to those blasters the DGIs have in the place of their right hands. And shot them they turned to dust and that was that. Enzo "Eh I wasn't expecting a tough battle anyways...little varmints. I'm gonna go charge my batteries that fight was long but I don't have everlasting batteries so time to go rest up". Author's Note During the three weeks of me working on this fanfic I forgot to name the characters if you ever read fanfics before you'd notice that in then the names of the characters are above the sentences they say Man I've been forgetting to do that for the past nine chapters but hey it's a little mistake no one would care about anyways bye //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 11 Finally A Survivor Has Come //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 11 Finally A Survivor Has Come Spot "Well it's official the human who we had in Canterlot's custody is the owner of the journal. And we're monsters we did horrible things and I'm not sure if I could go on with my life with this guilt". Spot said feeling guilty and sorry for this Ace fellow. Red "I don't think any of us could move on if we're being bossed around by the egotistical sociopathic insane mare Pall. Uhhhh don't tell her that I said that about her cuz she'll kill me if she knows". Said Red Iota "What you said about my older sister would've vexed me. But your not wrong your fully right about her. Stormy Wings "Speaking of that I don't know whose side I'm on anymore. I thought we were doing good things but I have now fully opened my eyes to reality. Fluttershy "I guess what we inflicted on the human is the soul reason for what's happening. But we didn't do it on purpose we were I guess forced into doing it. Well I didn't do anything but I wish I could help the poor human. Ace the human is a child and no child deserves such persecution he's just a- ". Fluttershy could say another word her eyes started to tear up. She couldn't utter another word she was upset. Upset about how friendly looking creatures such as ponies would be so cruel. Why were they so awful to him he was in a government cell. They treated him as if he was a freak of nature whose existence was a big mistake. Pony kind is supposed to be nice and trusting their appearance looked trusting enough to lure him in a trap. Did Equestria forgot its roots? Did pony kind started moving to a new horrid side. That isn't meant to be trusted were they actually planning on giving him away to be a slave for the other species?. This isn't right they've become monsters. Monsters that fooled victims with their deceiving appearance. But nothing can be done about it now. Everypony is gone which means the chance of starting over are inefficacious now. Iota "Oh Fluttershy don't cry" Iota pulls Fluttershy in for a hug to comfort her. Fluttershy appreciates Iota's kindness. Iota is the only one out of the crowd who is kind she was the only pony kind to Ace. The last time she met Ace he and her were young eggheads. That was something they had in common they could've been friends. If all of this never even happened there might be peace between both humans and ponies well between peace a human and ponies. BlueViolet "Well at least we are the only ones who aren't really cruel. We were blind to the truth but now we know. Ponies apart from us are xenophobic including Pall Shader. Pall's the one who mostly did all the ruining Ace's life in Equestria. I'm finally saying this now is because she's not around and we're alone to freely tell each other the things about Pall we didn't acknowledge and the things she did behind our backs". Outside the room everypony was in Pall herself was hearing everything they were saying. She was silently furious she felt betrayed what they said about her was true. She never expected BlueViolet to know about the things Pall did behind the backs of everypony. Pall knew one day no pony will never be on her side and that they'll just be in her way and will even try to stop her from getting power she'll have over Equestria. She had a backup plan for this when she creates a clone army each army will be leaded by Stormy Wings, BlueViolet, Cloud, Red and Pall Shader. She'll have them lead their armys to attack the robots. But magic has no affects on machines why attack them. She knows magic doesn't harm them so she's just gonna trick them into walking into their own death traps. Robots will easily kill them and after they are dead she'll create a more obedient robot army and destroy the robot invaders. And she'll clone all the ponies who were turned to dust. And make them different from their original selves. And that very thing is their love and loyalty for her. So Equestria will be replaced by ponies who will see Pall as their queen and goddess. And Pall attends to incurage them into making the whole planet worship Pall. And with the technology she'll steal from the robot invaders she will make pony kind advanced and powerful. So much so that she and them will be able to travel the whole universe and keep it all to herself. Everything will be hers and she'll target humanity after her success. In the everfree A lone stallion was walking in the forest seemingly not afraid of what will happen to him. If he just walked around in a dangerous forest ponies knew everything about for many years. But surprisingly the creatures never attacked him even when they saw him they weren't interested. They just hide in fear because they acknowledge the existence of the robot invaders. The stallion felt sorry for them he saw a scared manticor hiding in the darkness that was under the trees. He walked to the manticor and patted its back to let it know that it wasn't fearing them alone. The manticor appreciates it and the stallion continued his walk in the forest. The reason he was in the forest was because he's looking for the old castle of the two sisters. To seek shelter at and lucky for him nothing in particular wasn't going to be blocking his way. After two minutes of walking he finally found the castle at last. In the castle Pall was still furious after hearing the conversation they had. So she went upstairs to clear her mind she wouldn't have to tolerate them for long. But how long will it take for that day to come through wishing. She was in a hallway the old bricks covered in vines and cracks. She stops at a window and just stares through it. Of course the sky was still covered by the storm clouds that came that very day. It had stopped raining but the clouds and thunder never left. These darkened clouds came with these annoying invaders. Maybe these robots had made the clouds so dark and use them to make things hard for ponies to see. And they took advantage of that being blinded by the dark makes things hard. But it isn't hard for the robots they must have night vision or something. Pall sees a figure walking to the castle its a stallion. And that's a miracle Pall has been waiting for. Pall "Finally a survivor has come". Pall says as she quickly headed downstairs. Downstairs Fluttershy was now settled down her eyes are red but she was calm now. Fluttershy "What do we do now" Fluttershy asked In a whisper Iota "don't know" Iota said (Knock knock knock) There was knocking at the door. Iota "Who could that be?" Red "I don't know but we shouldn't open the door it could be the-" Pall "It's a stallion everypony" Pall says Iota "Oh oh my will we can't let him be out there alone". Iota runs to the big doors and in came a stallion who is still wearing his armor. Heavy-Duty "Thanks" Said the stallion Heavy-Duty "Never thought there be survivors hiding here". Iota "The castle is really the only hiding place we could find and yeah". 1 minute later Heavy-Duty "So your plan is to create a clone army of me. To defeat these robot invaders and save Equestria and bring back everypony from the dead". Pall "Yes" Pall said with her hands laying on her lap. And looking as if she earned a trophy for this plan. Spot "Hopefully you know some cloning spells". Pall "Oh I do and thank Twilight I have a spell book with me. And there are some spells in here that can give our clone army strength". Red "Oh yeah Equestria will soon be saved baby". Red said pretending to be on Pall's side. And was giving spot a noogie on the head. South three miles away from the everfree A flet of dronecopters were three miles away. From the everfree seems Enzo a fast bot is he. In one of the dronecopters Enzo was inside piloting on of them. Enzo "Ha ha I love myself a drive in the air". (Yoo hoo) Enzo hears a voice comming from outside. Enzo "Well I be if it ain't the heaven fan himself". Vi "Hello my yellow factory owner friend". It's Vi one of Enzo's brothers he's a 5'15" tall robot. He is colored daisy white and master mix white. His head was a sky blue color with yellow eyes. His body looked a little thin but not boney thin. He wears a pair of visors that come out of his helmet with a press of a button that is located on the right side of his helmet. Enzo "Ya coming to exterminate the ponies too?" Vi "Oh no dear brother I've come to watch you destroy the castle they are in. For some reason I find the destruction of an old structure artistic. Guess pony builds getting wrecked is art to me". Enzo "Alrighty then let's go" Author's Note Working on a fanfiction is hard if anyone has ever worked on a fanfic before what are the names of those fanfics and how many chapters are in them? //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 12 Wrecked //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 12 Wrecked Enzo and his flet where now two miles close to the everfree forest. Enzo was eager to do some destruction with the surviving ponies trapped inside. Enzo wasn't planning on building something in the old castle's spot. He's just going to wrecked it down to pieces and that's all. And he's gonna do that by having the flet shoot lasers at the castle. FYI the flet he was leading were self driving dronecopters yep he didn't have a DGI army. So he gave the dronecopters a self driving mode. Vi "Oh the city I'm building is a magnificent city I dreamed of making. And no it won't by hovering on the clouds no. It will by held up in the heavens by a very large support. And it's exactly in the spot of that city home to Pegasi. What was that city called again? Cloudsdale who knows. But now my city that I named Heavensdale. Will be the kind that will never be made from clouds. I mean seriously a city made of clouds that makes no sense". Enzo "Nothing in this here world is normal. So that's why we machines are going to populated it. To make it as normal as planet earth itself. Vi "Even the sun?" Enzo "Yeah the day we arrived the sun was no longer in the queen's control. The sun moved at the same normal pace as the sun back in the human world". Vi "Balance is key everyone says" Enzo "And we ain't stopping till everything is balanced in this here country". They're right Equestria is an unorthodox place to others species of creatures in this world. But not to the inhabitants of Equestria they are okay with too many oddities. They're okay with weird stuff and not okay with normal stuff. They think it's orthodox for clouds to not have the free will to move on their own. Clouds moving by themselves is stupidly unorthodox for ponies. These creatures are too confusing to understand ponies make things about themselves too hard to make sense about. So it be best if ponies were whipped from the face of this unnamed planet. If ponies go bye bye there will be no more nonsense from them. Enzo "Now we just need a border wall around the country". Vi "For what purpose". Enzo "A bunch of bug looking ponies who referred to themselves as. Changelings at broken into my factory without my acknowledgment and attached me. They ain't from around these here parts they are outsiders. So a border wall be another thing this country needs". Vi "My they must be brutes. A border wall is a great idea". In the castle Pall "Okay let's try this cloning spell out". Pall's horn glows and sparkles the pink glow of her horn grows big. It grows bigger and bigger then the glow faded away. Now there were four Heavy-Duty clones standing in front of the group. Pall "Yes it works excellently" Cloud "Wow make sure some of them have wings. We also need to attack our enemies from above". Red "Yeah and give them horns as well". Both Cloud & Red looked at one another. They seemed nervous about going out and. Have a war with the machines but there was no other solutions for this. So they have to participate in this battle for Equestria. Heavy-Duty "I must admit you making a clone army of me. Is a great idea I gotta say I mean they don't call me Heavy-Duty for nothing". Pall "Seems we won't wait for the day. The of us saving Equestria no more". Iota "Oh dear" Iota said in her head Fluttershy looked at Iota nervously. Iota and Fluttershy didn't like the idea of Pall leading everypony into war but they didn't come out and say it. Good thing they weren't alone Spot secretly didn't like the idea either. So only three ponies weren't on Pall's side. And it's depressing that Iota Fluttershy & Spot are the only ones who secretly never rooted for Pall. Pall being an egomaniac is the worst thing that could ever happen to both Everypony and all of Equestria Iota knew that Pall wished to be queen of Equestria but she never told a single soul about it. Well except for Fluttershy & Spot they now had butterflies in their stomachs. When today was really going to be the day Pall's egotistical dreams will horrifyingly come true. Pall "Alright each of you will lead your on clone armies. In about an hour we'll attack each large groups of robots. I assume these robots have leaders so each of you will focus on the leaders you choose to ambush. So that way we won't have to waist time going after each one at a time. If each leader is attacked by your armies all at once things will be really quick". Before Pall could saysomething else she was interrupted. By the sound of bricks falling to the ground. Spot "Uh oh is the castle finally reaching its expectation date?. Cuz it's starting to kinda fall apart". BlueViolet "We're being attack!" BlueViolet exclaimed Iota runs to the window and sees a flet of those. Flying things shooting lasers at the castle. Enzo's POV (Blast) Enzo "Ha got cha ya varmints" The castle kept falling apart with each blast it receives. (Blast Blast) A small chunk of the castle broke off. When it got blasted two times in a row. Iota's POV Iota "We gotta get out of here now!". Iota exclaimed They tried to find a way out but do to the castle falling apart. Pieces of debre had blocked the exits of the castle shutting them in. Iota "Oh no we're going to die". Iota said in a scared voice Enzo's POV Enzo "Oh boy the castle is bout to fall. In three two aaaaannddd onnne". The castle has finally fell to the ground slowly. The way the castle falls seems to be joyable for Vi. A cloud of dust has rise hiding the now destroyed ancient castle. Vi "What beautiful destruction that was". Enzo "Well now that takes care of that yep". Enzo & Vi left the castle sitting there now destroyed. No one could survive such downfall of the structure. It was quiet the rain had return just to laugh in the faces of the ponies. Now dead the machines can now go on with their business and robotifide Equestria. Author's Note Spring Break is good but now its over and I have to wait for next month to come so it will already be summer break wouldn't it be a massive gift from God oh and for some weird reason its snowing during April in Yakima Washington but it ain't so bad as long as I stay inside I like watching the snow fall what's your guy's favorite season weathers? //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 13 Pall's Wrath //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 13 Pall's Wrath The castle was a pile of stone debre. A cloud of dust had in gulf everything. Making things hard to see anything. There was nothing but the sound of rain giving the silent environment company. The machines had killed the last surviving ponies. Or so that's what they thought. The group had survived the wreck thanks to the force field spell Iota used. It kept the debre from crushing them to death. Iota "Sigh that was close" Spot "Awfully close" Said Spot Cloud "An unexpected attack from the air...how unexpected". Stormy Wings "And deadly too we could've been dead". Said Stormy Wings Iota "Yeah but we're lucky magic isn't a kaput on us. And sadly I believe that this spell books is the only one that survived". Red "Wait let me guess the robots burned the spell books did they?". Iota "Yes" Red ".....Well shoot" They are alive now but what are they going to do now?. The castle is the only place where they can hid but now it's destroyed. The robots think they are dead so they won't be on their tails anymore. But that doesn't excuse what the ponies are going to do for the rest of their lives. Iota turns to see Pall standing with both her fist clenched with anger and annoyance. Pall's pink colored eyes glowed like her did when she uses magic. In those eyes there was anger annoyance evilness & wrath. The group was nervous they didn't wanna anger her so they said nothing. Them knowing that Pall is egoistic can be a storm when it comes to anger. Pall's anger is horrifying the last time she was angry she attacked a bystander. Because this bystander told her that she has no control over the world and that she should stop her nonsense. After that the bystander was hospitalized and Pall had to be absent for a week. Pall "...Those stupidly vexing machines shall pay for that move...in an hour they'll all be gone from existence for good". She said in a scary voice Pall "In an hour we will go and end this once and for all". She said in a calm voice with a little bit of anger within. Cloud "Y-yes ma'am" That seems to put a little smile on Pall's face when hearing somepony is calling her ma'am. Pall's anger washes away her horn glows. Pall "There's no time to waste let's make our clone armies". Pall's horn is pointed directly at Heavy-Duty. And blast balls of magic at him making more and more clones. Tell it was hard to count each and every one. Somewhere else Enzo & Vi flying in the air talking about how cool it was to wreck down a castle. Enzo never had did destruction before he does construction but. Sometimes when there's construction there's destruction when it comes to moving something out of the way. So there will be a spot and room for something knew to build. Enzo "Ha ha ha I wished I've seen the looks on their faces. They never expected a surprise to drop on them hehehe". Vi "I bet they where dumb founded brother". Vi said while spinning around in the air. Enzo "Oh boy well time to get working on this here border wall while we have the chance. We don't want more varmints from outside this here country". Vi "No sooner said than done" Enzo & Vi went back to the places they are heads of. To inform their brothers that a border wall is in need of being built. They wouldn't need more outsiders coming in to give unexpected attacks again. Maybe dragons might come in and burn them to smithereens it they didn't give them a heads up. They don't have to worry about winged species the border walls will also have a thick glass dome over the country. Robots are way up ahead and not dump if they were. The border wouldn't be just keeping out land and flying species but even keep intruders who would think about digging under the wall. At Canterlot The human boy was sitting in the royal garden with an umbrella in hand. Walking around the garden loving it's beauty and greenness. The sound the rain makes when it hits the leafs on trees and shrubs made the boy relaxed. He really like the royal garden it looked like one of those award winning gardens in some suburbs on earth. And this garden almost resembles that of a garden of one of his neighbors. There were lots of flowers and there smells is almost enough to put anyone to sleep. He finds a bench under a tree and takes a seat. He pulls out three books he hasn't had a chance to read yet the names of the books are. The Dark Is Rising by Susan Cooper Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne And The Last Human by Lee Bacon These were books from the 2020s even though they were made in the 2020s the human boy seems to like them very much anyway. He couldn't remember the last time he ever got to read a book it must've been one or two months. Since he got to read in peace this world being almost similar to earth just makes him home sick. He tried to leave this world by building a machine that can open a portal to another universe or dimension. But the minute the machine opened a portal to earth couldn't stay open for a minute. It just exploded and was broken tried five more times till he finally gave up. The fact that he's stuck in this world forever hit him hard like a rock to the spine. The was scared tired and no longer determined to return to his world. But he is determined to survive in this that is void of human life. No matter what obstacles stand in his way he will use his invention. This invention he has resembles that of a pistol grip flashlight but with some disparities. It's a tool he made to make inventing fast and none time-consuming. It creates inventions and tech of many sizes and differences in a way a 3d printer. Could print little objects. Except it creates vehicles and gadgets in a fast speed. And the reason why it looks like a pistol grip flashlight is so that people won't be suspicious and try to steal it. But if someone does try to do any funny stuff the invention is also a weapon too so that's how he was also be able to survive. Before he could start reading one of his books a female voice was herd. Four feet away from the bench he was sitting on. Dim "Hello" The human jumped a little and turns around to see. A tall female anthropomorphic alicorn holding an umbrella that is colored purple with a crystal handle. Standind four feet away from him. She seems to be about ten feet tall. My goodness the human boy is just 4 feet tall. Well 4'11" feet tall to be axact. The mare's body is a black purple color her mane and tail is a plum purple and violet gradient color. She has a beautiful pair of fire orange eyes with beautiful hot pink colored eyelashes. She wears a long sleeve sweater coat. With a black shirt underneath and black pants. Ace "........." Dim "What's wrong you didn't expect anypony to be here?" Ace "Uuhhh frankly I never envision that some creature of any race would be in this garden anyway who are you?". Dim "I'm Dim Endlessdusk or you can just call me Dim if you wish. Oh wait let me guess are you Ace Bosco the human boy I herd about?". Ace "Why yes I- wait how do you know my name?". Dim "I'm an alicorn an aliccorn knows the names of ponies they never met. It's odd I know but alicorns are alicorns". The human boy doesn't know who this mare is. But she doesn't seem all that bad she looks nice. And not suspicious okey she knew his name but she's and alicorn and the boy forgot alicorns are practically powerful as gods. The last time he saw one she is purple and what was her name again? Queen Twilight Sparkle?. Dim "So it seems pony kind has been atrocious to you huh". Ace "Sigh sadly yes" The human boy says a little hesitant to say it but did. Ace "They were horrible I thought they were friendly creatures. They look harmless they kind they look trust worthy but. They didn't seem that way when they knew of my existence. And...and I couldn't tolerate it any longer they did many things that I couldn't say cuz it's hard to just say it. Weirdly only one pony stood out of the crowd she freed me. So that I wouldn't have experimented on by a psychopathic scientist". Dim "Well it seems this good pony isn't alone I'm also sorry for you as well. I couldn't help but notice that you don't have parents either. Seeing you alone reminded me of a time where I didn't know who my parents are. So I was alone for a little while met some friends but I never get to have them for long and back to the loneliness I go". The boy felt a bit of sadness mixed with pain in his chest. He sat there for a few seconds and moved over to give the tall mare a hug. The tall mare hugged him back seems she is affectionate when it comes to hugs. Ace "Seems the both of us are loners but now we're not any more". Dim "Now that's a wish that has come true for me". The boy sits down on the mare's lap and grabs out a fifth book that catches the mare's attention. On the cover of this book there's planet earth on it. Dim "Your from earth right?" Ace "Yes yes I am" The boy answered Ace "This book is about my home world planet earth. You probably wish to know about my world don't you?". Dim "Why of course I wished to know almost everything about your interesting world". Ace "Ok And so the boy opens the book showing the tall mare the pages that contain the knowledge about earth humanity and everything about things that have something to do with earth. In the everfree forest Walking in the darkness of the forest Pall was so dead set ready. She had her spear in hand and her shiney armor. Following behind her is the others well not exactly the others Iota Fluttershy and Spot stayed behind. And following behind them is the clone army they're almost identical to one another but some had Wings and others have horns. Pall "You stupid machines thought you killed us. But we survived and now this is war time". Author's Note Here's four facts about Dim Endlessdusk Dim Endlessdusk is about 202 years old even though she looks to be between her 20s and 30s but since she's an alicorn she's ageless just like all alicorns. She is such an affectionate mare she was like that when she she turned 11 she was known to be touchy-feely but she never had someone to be that way towards to but years later she met the human boy named Ace so now she can be smitten all she wants oh one more thing she also likes short males so after meeting Ace she must've fallen for him and now she can hug him hold him and yeah. Originally when I was making this fanfic Nightmare Moon was supposed to be the mare Ace met and felt sorry for him and this version of Nightmare Moon isn't even evil at all she wanted to protect him really bad but that concept was from last year in 2021 so now I kinda changed my mind and had Dim Endlessdusk take Nightmare Moon's place. One day I was playing around with this app called Main Quest its a pixilated app were you make your own pony oc you can make your oc male or female there's main and tail in different styles even facial hair when I was on the app I for some reason I made the pony character and named her Dim Endlessdusk and I decided that she should appear in my fanfic Egomania. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 14 Culmination //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 14 Culmination Today is the day all of this is going to end. And hopefully they win this war successfully if luck could stay tide up with them. They had a clone army ready to attack apon command. Each survivor of the group will lead their armies to the head quarters of these machines. Pall has this idea that there's more then one so each army will separate to attack the HQs all at once. And while that's Pall will go to Canterlot because she believes on of the robot leaders are there. They all stand in the outskirts of the destroyed ponyville looks to be getting cleaned up half of the town gone. Pall "All right you all remember the plan?". Everyone "Yes ma'am" They all said in unison Pall "Good if we attacked each head quarters at a time. That would a be a huge time consumer so it be beast if each army attacks each head quarters all at once. Oh and if you can't the their other HQs there's a spell for that". She pulls out a spell book and found a page that contains. A spell that will give them the ability to find faraway places. Pall "There now you all know where to find them now". They all separated and Pall teleportrd them to different places where the HQs are located at. Now Pall was all alone she didn't need an army with her she lied about there being a robot leader at Canterlot. The spell she used to see faraway places shown her that a human was in the castle of Canterlot she wants to get him and so that's what she shall do. Pall "I recognize that bipedal hairless creatures from anywhere. And it is the reason why this is happening and I will make it sorry and regret that it ever did. And I'll be sure that it will never live a another day". Pall teleportrd out of thin air and everything was quiet. At Fluttershy's cottage Well now that they've left to save Equestria Iota Fluttershy and Spot. Were in Fluttershy's cottage since none of them can fight they were lucky. So now they were going to wait till this ends thankfully Fluttershy's cottage still has electricity. And working water pipes so now they don't have to die of thirst. And to make it better Fluttershy even has food. They don't remember when it was the last time they have eaten anything. Because of this invasion they couldn't eat nor drink. Spot "Well it's good to finally eat and drink. I was starting to get a little boney". Iota "We all could've died of starvation. But luckily there was still food around for us. And that food is the kind in Fluttershy's cottage". Fluttershy has made some magnificently good food. That made the two ate like two kings after a glorious battle. The veggie stew was so freaking good so much that they got full and couldn't eat no more. They went to the living room to relax after a good meal. Holy goodness the sofa felt so soft a relaxing. They could not get any relaxation when they were in the castle. Iota "This is way better then resting up against a solid brick wall". Spot "You said it" Said Spot being comfy Iota "Was there really a robot leader at Canterlot?". Spot "I don't think so the way Pall said it it sounded more like a fib". Iota "Oh dear" Iota knew that Pall is the type to lie pretty much all the time. She lied her way out of situations and has gotten ponies in trouble two times before. So if she lied then who or what is at Canterlot?. Pall teleported to Canterlot to handle with something but what is or who is she going to deal with?. Iota "Well if there is no robot at Canterlot then...n-no she couldn't be. She couldn't be going the hu-...oh no no no". Spot "What's wrong?" Iota "Now I don't know if the human is at Canterlot or not but...I think she is going to harm him". Spot's eyes widen a little in shock. Spot "Well the human is still alive...and now he's going to be in...SERIOUS DANGER!!!". Fluttershy walks into the living room. Fluttershy "Is something wrong?". Fluttershy says in a calm tone Iota "Well it seems Pall lied about there being a robot at Canterlot". Fluttershy "W-wait what w-what do you mean?". Fluttershy asked in confusion Iota "Pall is actually going to Canterlot to do the human harm. The human is still alive and he could be in Canterlot not knowing. About Pall arriving to harm him in many ways. And if nopony tries to stop her then the human could no longer be save". Apon hearing that Fluttershy started to look scared. She never wanted images of what terrible fate awaits him. She never wanted innocent ponies animals or the human to be harms way. If nothing is done about it could sadly be too late. Fluttershy "I-i don't want a young creature be in the clutches of unspeakable things Pall is going to inflict on the poor human". Iota "Then we should stop her she isn't doing Equestria good. She just wants to gain control over our home and. Bring corruption to the whole world and inslave all species including earth and humans themselves". Spot "What about everypony else and their clone armies?". Iota "They're not in on what Pall is secretly doing. She just led them to their deaths. Magic has zero percent affects on robots and their technology". Spot "Holly Molly I forgot about that". Iota "We're going to stop Pall right now whose in?". At Canterlot Pall was sneaking around the streets of Canterlot. Checking every corner and there were no robots this city is dead empty. Pall knew the human was here she used that spell that allowed her to see very far. And the human is there alone and defenseless being safe in the empty castle Pall is supposed rule over. Pall "It's such a shame your alone human". She says petting her spear She walks out into the streets of Canterlot. Everything destroyed and half of everything burned. Just like ponyville and maybe in other towns and cities. She was walking on a path that led to the castle she saw the castle coming into view. Pall "Canterlot will be mine when I deal with. The human and that won't take long at all". Meanwhile The human boy was walking around the castle with a kiwi in his hand. He looks to be in a bright mood now. He felt better after having to interact with someone or in the words of ponies somepony. The tall mare felt better after some interaction too. He is now planing on moving in with Dim. Being in a big castle is okey but he prefers a small place to live in. Well he better move out fast cuz what he doesn't know is that danger will be coming for him. (Magic sparkling) The boy hered something it sounded like sparkling what's causing it?. It's coming from outside in the royal garden. Iota's POV Iota "Phew we made it and it doesn't look like Pall arrived yet let's go". Iota Spot & Fluttershy exited the royal garden and into the castle. To find the human and warn him of Pall's arrival. They searched around the little places in the castle then went to check the rest of the castle. Iota "Where is he?" Iota asked exhausted and frantic Spot "I don't know but we can't stop". So they kept searching for the human. Never stopping to take a break they have to find him before he's gone. Somewhere in the castle The boy went to the royal garden to see what the. Cause of the sparkling noise was but when he got there. There was nothing Huh he thought he hered something. Proplepy the rain or the wind blowing on some wind chimes. Ace "Odd I could've sworn I hered something in the garden. Oh well back to getting ready to move away with Dim". He heads back inside the castle to fetch his backpack. Yep he has nothing but a backpack but some of his stuff was in it. And he can't risk ever having anyone stealing it his invention was in there. And someone would use it for evil intentions. Ace "Thank heavens I didn't forget where my backpack is at". He heads to the dinning room and sees his backpack laying on the table. Untouched clean and not zipped open good nothing happened. He puts on his backpack on his back zipped up his red hoodie Ace "Aright time to go" He walks out into the hall leaving the castle. He hasn't been out right away this castle is big. But Dim is pationt at waiting so she wouldn't mind him taking his time. The air in the castle changed it feels as if something is in the castle. And the boy bugged because someone or something was in the castle. Even though who ever is in the castle with the boy wasn't close. The boy was still going to avoid being seen he remembered a moment like this before. And it is something he prefers to not to talk about. He runs to a random place to hide it looks like a library. Pall's POV Pall "Where is he? he can't hide forever". Pall was running in the castle upsesing over looking for the human fast. She used that spell again and sees that the human is in the library. Emediatly she heads to the library fast like a predator going in for the kill. Pall "A library I can't take this creature seriously". Ace's POV Ace hears some loud hoove steps getting close to the library. Ace was now a nervous wreck and the sound of hooves getting close is just taunting. Then the doors were kicked down violently from their hinges. Dang just one kick was enough to take down both doors well he's dead...wait. He pulls out his invention setting it to weapons mode he holds it like a gun. He hears hooves stepping on broken glass and wood. Pall "I know your here" The mare says Ace "Does she really?" Pall "There's pretty much no use in hiding and acting like your not here. I'm not stupid you're here and I will make sure your dead". She threw her spear where Ace was hiding at almost hitting him. Ace "Oh crap!" He ran out of his hiding spot pointed his invention at her and started shooting lasers at her. He gotten a couple of hits on her. She grapped at her shoulder in pain it burns a lot. Pall's POV Pall "Aaaaggggghhhh DANG IT!!!". If anything could anger Pall so fast a laser to the shoulder might do. Pall "Your dead" She shoots a blast of magic at Ace. She misses and ends up getting another laser blast from Ace. When she got shot at the thigh she was to distracted to notice the human running past her. And out the hall he went leaving her furious. Pall "Ooohhhh your asking for it" She said through grit teeth She gets up and chases the human in anger. Ace's POV Ace runs away from Pall he didn't know where to go. Seeing that Pall was slow do to her now being injured. Gave Ace more time to avoid her get to the front doors of the castle and get the heck out of there. He sees the front doors of the castle he was thirteen feet away but thank goodness he can make it he he's going to live. But a spear flew towards him and caught him by the hood of his hoodie. And was stuck to the wall and off the ground. Pall "Finally now I have you where I want you". Ace was scared out of his mind now. He was sweating from his head he was trembling. Pall "You have caused me maddening inconvenience ever since you first came to Equestria". Ace tried to free himself from the spear that tacked him to the wall like a pathetic piece of paper but to no eval. Pall "I wanted to rule Equestria I always wanted to since I became a guard. But your annoyingness has stood in my way there was no way I could rule a world with you around. The technology of your race makes ponies and me look feeble and witless". Ace "No no no no no" He said in his head in fear Pall "But it will make ponies strong and powerful. It will give us power over this whole planet and soon your world will be next". Planet earth in her control not on Ace's watch. Pall "So human do you have any last words before everything will be in my clutches?. Ace still has his invention in his hand he will not let her do this. Ace "Yes yes I do" He points his invention at her and.... (Blast) At the castle front doors Dim is waiting for Ace after learning a bit about humans. She admires the intelligence and creativity of humanity. As she waited she checks out Ace's form of transportation the Ace mobile. She's really curious about human tech she's as curious as a pure innocent child. She found it interesting that humans were once monkeys millions of years ago. And before that these creatures called dinosaurs once roamed earth. And after dinosaurs there were animals of the ice age. So many things about humans are interesting in so many ways possible. And sometimes there's a good side and bad side to humanity but Dim prefers the good side of humanity more. Ace "Okey I'm all set to go now" Said Ace as he heads to his Ace mobile. Dim "Good you will love it at my place oh to avoid having myself be alone I will make you ageless like me". Ace "What really?" Dim "Of course besides if you disappear....I'll be all alone again". Ace felt sad for her but things will get better and that's all that matters now. They flew into the air now heading somewhere where they can live in peace now. Inside the castle Iota "He's got to be here somewhere" Said Iota Spot "Let's hope Pall didn't get to him already". Fluttershy "If she tries to harm him I'll garentee she pays for it without mercy". Spot "That almost scared me" Said Spot They found the front doors that lead to outside the castle. But a body was laying on the ground and...it was Pall!. The sight of her body on the ground almost made Iota fall to her knees. She never expected Pall to be dead but at least she won't do any harm no more. Pall may be family but being a sociopathic and an egomaniac is unexpected. And everypony knows that if they aren't born nice they should never treated like good ponies. Iota "Pall is dead now do you know what that means?". Fluttershy & Spot "What?" They ask in unison Iota "It means Ace Bosco is safe now...we don't know where he has gone but. It's good that he's okey I think a pure hearted mare has come to care for him now. And give him a warm welcome and the love all ponies never gave him". The End Author's Note Let's hope that in the everlasting life Ace will have will be good and that no egotistical person or creature will use him as a key to universe domination I know he hasn't appeared in all chapters of this story but what do you all think of Ace? if you all are positive about him I know Ace would love to know if he were real don't be like those who wronged him be like Dim she's nice and you all should too. Signed X //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1 Pall Shader //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1 Pall Shader It's a beautiful day in the city of Canterlot the rays of sunlight shines apon the city. The birds chirped calmly the breeze breezes the sky's blueness. Is too perfect to be changed the clouds are white and puffy as ever. Nothing was out of the ordinary except for a pony whose a royal guard at the Canterlot castle. Pall Shader a twenty six year old mare who has a beautiful pair of pink eyes. Her body a shade of charcoal black her mane and tail a darker shade of black. Her body built like a mare who walked out of the gym her royal guard armor. Made of shiny gold it reflects the light of the sun. She stood guarding one of the exits of the castle she stood awfully still like a statu. Pall joined the royal guards when she was nineteen ten guards were murdered a week before Pall appeared out of the blue. After that incident to be honest Pall wasn't surprised that those guards are now gone. And that bothered some ponies usually ponies are sometimes emotionally. But Pall didn't show the slightest emotion not even a tear of sadness. Three months after joining she takes her job too seriously and almost attacked a bystander. The air was silent real silent but it wasn't much to Pall's disappointed. No she actually likes it when she is given some parts of the castle to guard. And some of those parts are quiet places that a guard would love to be at. Pall stood waiting for her shift to end she kept herself busy by taking a trip to fantasy land. She was dressed like a queen a queen would be better then a guard. If she was a queen she had more power over the ponies over Canterlot and over Equestria. "Me as a queen would be a dream come true". It didn't take to long for her to snap out of her self centered fantasy and realized it's time for her to end her shift for today she went into the castle. Went to the guards quarters and changed out of her guard outfit. And went home when she walked home she wished that all ponies could acknowledge her existence. And maybe treat her as royalty or better yet a goddess like Celestia herself. Or Twilight wait is Twilight a goddess?...well she has wings and a horn so duh of course she is a goddess. Pall has a horn but no wings but who needs them anyway when you got magic on your side you can just use a spell to make yourself fly. The day is over finally but it's not enough for her she hates living a normal life she desires the life of a respected pony like one of those annoying rich ponies. Some ponies secretly hate with a pation. Pall didn't want a house she desired a castle she could call her own but hey. You don't always get what you want in life and your just going to have to except it. She didn't want to except it and never will she hates it when ponies including her thirteen year old sister Iota. Pall wishes to shut them all up she doesn't want hear anymore but she can't do anything about it. "I can't do anything about how my life goes but one day I will have the power to do so". She thought in an annoyed voice but she will be annoyed about it another time. Now she is going to have some well deserved dinner she deserves. The next day "Do you remember that incident that involved a strange bipedal creature from three months ago?" Azure asked. "Yeah I remember I didn't expect it to be sentient and I thought it was an alien until it explained that aliens were seen back in it's world so my suspensions were wrong sadly". "Yeah". Speaking of that biped Pall just remembered that it was still out there somewhere in the everfree forest. She the that it wouldn't survive any longer that was until two guard came back. And told Queen Twilight that the thing is still alive and she had to guess that. It was alive because of the technology that it's species had created. What kind of technology does that thing have anyway it spoke of it's race having gadgets. Long delivery drones robots electric vehicles 3D printing organs airships flying taxis and more. It seems that race is advanced and technology is the only thing that race has. And it's so weird that magic doesn't exist in that world technology is the one thing they looked up to and trust with all their hearts. And what were thing's race called again humans? and what was their world called again...earth was it?. Their planet called earth is located in a galaxy called the milky way. So these humans know about space and everything it has they have a big knowledge on space and know everything about it. Now that's just making pony kind look ridiculous dump and pathetic humans now about the planets that curcald around their solar system. What kind horse fathers is this heck humans a planning on population one of those planets. But anyways that human is still out there and Pall wishes to meet it someday so she could. Be alone with it so she could put it to sleep an endless sleep that doesn't evolve breathing nor moving. But three months ago when she tried to she was out smarted embarrassingly. Making her feel dead inside oh it was enough to make her be refusing to admit that she surrendered to defeat. And let the human get away with it oh she wished to get her hands on the human. And things couldn't get any worse when it came Pall's little sister Iota came in and was defending the human. Whose side was she on She always says that the human is no threat no threat Pall's spine. The human escape the equestrian government custody and was responsible for the death of Dr. Knife. One day that human will get what it had coming Justice will make it disappear forever and maybe earth will disappear forever as well. And pony kind will be as powerful as humans are and advanced enough to travel to space. The thought of ponies having human power pleases Pall so much. "Hopefully when that human is captured we might as well as execute it or inslave". Azure says "I say we execute it so we would be able to have it's tool that it uses to create many kinds of tech in any shape size or form". Pall says eagerly "Your right Pall with such technology we ponies will be an advanced and awesome species in the entire world". Azure exclaims "But for now we must wait for that day to come". A guard came in and told the two guardsmares to arrive at the throne room Queen Twilight has sense a large. Storm cloud that's packing with thunder and rain. Hearing this the guardsmares left their spots and quickly head to the throne room. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2 Storm Clouds Of Darkness //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2 Storm Clouds Of Darkness After arriving to Queen Twilight's throne room the queen herself has told all of Canterlot. That an unexpected wave of darkened storm clouds were seen hovering over. The ocean and is slowly heading two the direction of Equestria. A cloud moving on it's own? is so unorthodox in Equestria but not outside of Equestria. In other countries and continents it's normal for the weather to work on it's own. It's always been normal since the dawn of time and before Equestria was a country. All races around the world say that ponies are awfully dumb and not normal because they spend many generations. In Equestria thus causes ponies to not know the differences between what's and what's not. News have spread to every town and city in Equestria now all of the ponies are aware of this cloud of darkness. That's slowly getting closer with each minute passing. Ponies were a little anxious about the big thundering darkness that looms over the ocean but now over the desert. That means it could arrive in a day or so why get so worked up over a huge cloud. Can't Pegasi just use their expertise to just move the cloud away. Well they can only touch clouds that are small and harmless not the ones that spitting bolts everywhere. In Canterlot Four hours after being told the news about this strange cloud phenomenon. Pall wasn't to worried about despite being a bit weird out by the clouds she's mostly calm about it. It'll be gone soon and ponies will go back to their normal lives. Pall is in her house doing what she always does after a day of guard work. She hears thundering that's coming from the distance. "I'm guessing that cloud is 3 minutes close towards ponyville". Pall says guessingly Since the clouds are so huge it wouldn't be that hard to hear the lightning bolts booming from the distance. They boom like a field of nine hundred drums being banged by nine hundred drummers. There was a rough breeze outside blowing roughly causing a mess out in the streets. Of Canterlot some umbrellas flying away in the wind leafs blinding some ponies. Trees looking as if they are about break and fall over to cause more messes. The breeze seemingly opening a couple of windows in Pall's house. "What the heck". Pall walks over to close the windows but apon doing so she was greeted to a blast of wind to the face. She finally had those windows closed and sat down at the table a little defeated by the wind. She looks at herself in a mirror her reflection tells her that she's a mess. But quickly collected herself and went to make herself some food. The next day "My my these clouds are covering the whole country like a blanket". A guardsmare named Blue Violet says looking to be in a trance by the grim dark clouds. They arrived at ponyville after arriving they caught the attention of the town. but the ponies in the town didn't mind the guards at all. Queen Twilight sented the guards to ponyville to try make everypony feel safe. And to ensure safety for them it feels kinda funny. That they were given the task to keep ponies calm. All because of some rainy clouds. It started to rain a little nothing wrong with rain so what's with all the nervousness going on?. "Eh nothing but average rain". Pall said "Average rain this might not be rain at all it could be poisonous". A guard named Cloud said sounding like a pony who goes crazy extraterrestrial life. "If it's poisonous why didn't we melt immediately coo coo head?". Cloud was about to answer but couldn't if the rain was poisonous they'd all be dead right axactly now. Some minutes later everything is normal the rain sounded kinda nice to listen to. The wind blowing gently the ponies were now calm at last their worries went away. Seeing that everything is all right with the world now all the guards started to get ready to leave. Wait their's a sound coming from the clouds it wasn't thunder no. It sounds like an airship?. "What?" Pall said a little confused All the ponies stopped and heard the sound to the sound sounded familiar to an airship. Why was there an airship in the thunder infested clouds. Lights were poking through the clouds and out came an airship but hold on it looks different. It doesn't look like any of the airships that existed in this world it looked advanced a little futuristic. Ponies stared at the airship in awe and showing some signs of anxiousness. The full appearance of this thing came all the way out of the clouds and was looming over the town.
