EARTH.
"Alright, calm down, you got this," a man said to himself.
"Hey anon, calm down you will do fine this is only a test flight, you passed the written exams with flying colors, I know you can pass this," another man stated.
"(Sigh) I know, and why are you calling me by my call name?" Anon asked.
"You know how the general can get, he thinks everyone flying a machine has to call each other by our call tags, I only do it so he doesn't have me wash the toilets." Again, just to let you know if you forgot, my call tag is Desert Fox, so if you don't want to wash toilets remember it," Fox stated.
"Who came up with our call tags anyway?" Anon asked confused.
"You know... I don't know, it is a bit weird, I wish we could pick our own," Fox said.
A man walked into the hanger and made his way to the two men.
"ATTENTION!" The man called out.
Both, Anon and Fox got to attention and saluted, then Fox said, "YES, GENERAL VOX SIR!"
"At ease, I just came here to let you both know that your tests will start soon, normally we would use a simulation." But, due to them being rushed they have bugs that need fixing, so, you will be flying the real things," Vox stated.
"Wait so we are flying the experimental helicopters,?!" Fox questioned shocked.
"Yes you both will be flying the experimental XO-1556 Scorpion, these are the only ones of their kind, so don't crash them," Vox stated.
"When do we start, sir?" Anon asked.
"In thirty minutes, so get ready," Vox ordered. He turned around and walked off.
"So, I guess we should get our gear," Anon implied.
"Yes, we should go," Fox said. The two walked over to the lockers by the wall, they got their flight suits on.
"We better get to the helicopters soon, before we get in trouble," Fox stated.
EQUESTRIA.
The sky over ponyville was clear and bright, ponies were walking without a care in the world. Twilight was walking through the town reading her book.
"Hay, Twilight, I need to talk with you," Pinky pie called out.
"Yes, Pinky, what is it?" Twilight asked.
"Well, I was wondering if I should use chocolate or vanilla?" Pinky questioned.
"What do you mean?" I don't remember any holiday today," Twilight stated.
"Nope, we are going to get a new friend, also you want to get your umbrella there is going to be a nasty storm, and our new friend will need all the help they can get," Pinky pie implied.
"A, storm... The last I checked the weather team didn't have a storm scheduled for today," Twilight stated.
Pinky pie bounced off, leaving twilight confused, she just shook her head and continued to walk.
"Hay Twilight, have you heard, a new pony is coming to town, and we are getting a storm," Rainbow dash said.
"Yes, but, I don't understand why she said there would be a storm," Twilight replied.
"Yeah that was weird, but, Pinky tends to say things that do come true, so, we might want to take what she says with some truth," Rainbow dash implied.
"I guess, but, it is just nagging at my mind, on what kinda storm, Pinky pie would call nasty," Twilight stated.
EARTH.
The sound of two helicopters could be heard. "This is Desert Fox of Scorpion 0-1 reporting in," Fox called out.
"This is Anon of Scorpion 0-2 reporting in" Anon added.
"I see the targets, do we have the go-to attack?" Fox questioned.
"This is air control, you have the go-to attack, I repeat, you are, go for the attack," A man said on the radio.
Both helicopters fired missiles at the dummy targets and exploded. "Targets are eliminated, I repeat, Targets are eliminated," Anon stated.
"We are returning to base now," Fox said. The two turned around to head back, after a minute clouds came in and blocked out the sky.
"Uh, air control, Where did these clouds come from?" Fox asked in concern.
"What do you mean?" I don't see any clouds on any of my scanners," the man said.
"Well, I am seeing a lot of clouds," Fox stated. He waited for a response, but, nothing came through but static.
"Air control, this is Scorpion 0-2 please come in," Anon said. Nothing but static.
The clouds started to spin in a circle, then started to form a hole in the sky, in the center was a green light.
"FOX FLY DOWN, NOW!" Anon called out.
Fox had gotten to a safe distance from the strange weather phenomenon when Anon went to follow he found the controls to be unresponsive and saw he was being dragged to the portal.
Everything went dark.
EQUESTRIA.
Clouds were circling over the town of ponyville, winds were moving fast enough to throw small branches and small stones.
"Where did this storm come from?!" Twilight asked in shock.
"Nopony knows, it just came out of the ever-free forest out of nowhere," Rainbow dash stated in a panic.
"Well, thank goodness the castle of friendship is large enough to keep everypony safe," Rarity said worriedly.
The windows of the castle were rattling due to the wind. But after a minute it stopped, Rainbow dash looked out of one of the windows.
"What ya see out there?" Applejack asked.
"I don't see... Wait, there is a thing that just fell through the eye of the storm, it looks like it's on fire!" Rainbow dash answered.
Anon was watching as the ground was coming closer, he thought he was going to die, before smashing into a large fireball. The nosedive turned into a failing flight, he remembered the Scorpion had an anti-crash system, but, the engines were still on fire, so, once the craft hit the ground he blacked out.
~~One Hour Later~~
Once the storm left the ponies made their way out of the castle, Twilight looked around. "Rainbow, where was that object that fell from the storm?" Twilight asked.
Rainbow flew up and looked around and pointed out, "Over there, I see it!"
Twilight with her friends followed Rainbow dash, after running through the town they came across what looked like a large chunk of metal, it looked like a Scorpion.
"W-What is that?" Fluttershy asked with fear.
"It looks like some sort of Scorpion... I don't think it's alive," Twilight said.
"IT'S DEAD!" Fluttershy shouted in more fear. Fluttershy started to hyperventilate and tear up.
"No darling, I think what Twilight meant is that it is not a real living thing, I mean it does look like it is made of metal," Rarity pointed out.
Fluttershy looked at the metal thing and took a more detailed look, she noticed that the thing was more like a large piece of metal. And not the normal multiple plates of chitin of a Scorpion would have, she saw a pool of black liquid on the ground and froze.
Twilight looked where her friend was looking and saw the black liquid, she thought that it wasn't some sort of blood, it looked like some form of oil, what kind of oil, she didn't know.
"I don't think that is blood, it looks like some sort of oil," Twilight implied.
"Uh, Twilight, you might want to come here!" Rainbow dash called out.
Twilight walked over to where Rainbow dash was standing, she saw part of the machine, (Twilight thought it was some sort of machine), it was made of some sort of tinted glass. And there were cracks on it, but, it wasn't broken, whatever it was, it was strong, twilight looked inside and saw an unconscious filly.
"What the?!" Twilight shouted in shock.
"What is it darling?" Rarity asked worriedly.
"There is a filly inside!" Twilight answered.
She used her magic and pried the glass off the metal contraption, then used her magic to pick up the filly, the pony was wearing some sort of weird helmet, Rarity took the headgear in her magic.
"Well, this is definitely not in style, but, it doesn't look like it was made with good looks in mind. It looks like it was made with practicality in mind," Rarity stated with a critical eye.
"We need to go to the hospital," Twilight stated.
The group made their way to the hospital, once they ran in the staff noticed the group needed help, and one of the nurse ponies walked up.
"Princess Twilight, do you need help?" Redheart asked concerned.
"Yes, this filly needs medical attention now!" Twilight answered.
"Yes Princess, I need a stretcher here now!" Redheart called out.
Some other ponies ran over with a stretcher, a unicorn placed the filly on the stretcher and left to go deeper into the hospital.
"Princess do you know anything about this filly?" Redheart asked.
"No, sorry, I know nothing about that filly," Twilight answered.
"Can't you look at her background?" Rarity asked.
"Well, no, I have seen every foal in this town, and that filly, I have never seen before, I can send requests to other towns if they have any information," Redheart implied.
"That would be nice, I will send a letter to the Princess to ask if she can help," Twilight stated.
"That will help, I don't want to think some poor ponies were worried sick over the loss of their daughter," Redheart said.
"Can you let me or any of my friends know if the filly wakes up?" Twilight requested.
"Yes, will let any of you know when the filly wakes up," Redheart said.
"Thank you, is there anything else you need?" Twilight asked.
"No, not now, there isn't anything we need at this moment, if we need anything else, we will let you know," Redheart answered.
"Think you, I need to go and let the princess know what happened," Twilight stated.
The six made their way out of the building and made their way to the castle.
~~Thirty Minutes Later~~
"Spike, where are you? I need you to write a letter!" Twilight called out.
After a couple of seconds, later the sound of claws on the floor could be heard and a small green lizard came from around the corner holding a piece of paper in one claw and a quill in the other.
"Ok Twilight I got everything," spike stated.
Dear Princess Celestia.
I am writing to you about the freak storm I wrote to you about earlier.
Thankfully nothing bad happened to the town of ponyville only small damages, and nopony was hurt, but, this isn't the reason why I am writing to you.
Earlier an object of unknown origins came through a portal the storm made, inside the object was an unconscious filly found inside.
The filly is a unicorn with a green coat with a black mane and tail.
I am asking if you can help with finding the filly's parents, you do have a farther reach across Equestria than I or the ponyville hospital has.
From your faithful student, Princess Twilight Sparkle.
After writing Spike tied the letter up with a red ribbon and breathed green fire on it. The paper turned into a magic cloud of smoke, it made its way out of the window, and into the distance.
"Well, now that is taken care of what do we do now?" Rainbow dash asked.
"(Sigh) For now, we wait for the Princess to write back, I rather not miss anything," Twilight answered.
"So, what do you all think of this?" Twilight asked.
"I just hope that filly is ok, it would be heartbreaking if she was hurt," Fluttershy said.
"Yes, I do agree with Fluttershy darling, I do hope that poor filly was not hurt," Rarity added.
"I'm confused about how that filly was in that thing in the first place," Applejack stated.
"Well, if anypony did anything to that filly I will show them the good one-two," Rainbow dash said angered.
Spike burped up a cloud of smoke it turned into a letter, before it hit the ground, Twilight caught it in her magic and opened it.
Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle.
It is good to hear that, nopony was harmed in the storm.
And about the mysterious filly, I will be sending a notice to every city and town of Equestria about her.
Until then keep me updated, Luna will try to find out all she can through the dreams of the filly.
From your faithful teacher, Princess Celestia.
"Well, now we know what Princess Celestia will be doing, it is getting late I suggest that we all go to bed, and see what tomorrow has in store for us," Twilight stated.
The group agreed and went their own ways for the night.
