Machines

Justin Daft

Looking over at the graveyard that was previously known as Ponyville. I stood outside as smoke rose up from the burning ruins that surround the entire town. Before this, Ponyville was normal but I hardly remember any of the events because I wanted to see basically what was out there? So after a few weeks I and my brother were walking to Ponyville when I spotted a dead pony which lay on the sign. I could tell it was a solder from battle. I had a really bad feeling that possible we are not alone. I walked a few steps forward to see over the hillside of Ponyville; a grim and burning ruins.

“What happened?” asked my brother.

“I don’t know.” I replied in an equally down tone.

“Calvin…” He trailed off in his words. I could see why.

I turned around to where he was looking to see the castle in burning ruins.

I felt bad despite the fact we look like ponies, we are actually liquid metal robots.

I walked into the castle with my night vision on. I noticed a certain marking on the ruins, they are robotic in how they were aimed and fired. Suddenly a noise of a machine rung in my ears, I looked to see a T-800 aimed then FIRED a laser beam at my torso. I was heated but it spoke a language that I suddenly understood more than English. I suddenly let go of my anger and LET the robot walk off.

I ran over to my brother who had he’s back turned and I knew something bad will happen so I stormed down toward him but… BOOM! A massive laser ball acted like an acid to his body. I was in terror and shocked as it happened.

I screamed at the top of my voice hardware: “WHYYYYYYY!” and cried hard but for a short amount of time because as I screamed, robots started to walk my way. I stated for a mad run with a hop down the hill and was in pure panic as they came in large number while dashed from my life.

Suddenly I was pushed by a robot and burrowed into a house. I saw what it was, something like me. It walked over and hurled a blow on my body. I knew a few my weaknesses so I grab a pot with flames on it and BASH! I smashed it into the robot but it morphed it hands into long knives, I did the same. My footwork was something but was little to none to the robot and sent a cut in my body. I knew a similar weakness that I had so I grabbed large water bowl with some acid inside of it I poured it all on it. Electric sparks grew out of the liquid metal and stunned it.

I walked out but suddenly it hit me and I did start off again. I could see in the horizon a massive building that I thought was a factory for the robots. With some thought I would rather save the place that I was raised then leave it to rot. Quickly I walked over into the factory through massive steel doors, headed straight toward stairs, walked all the way down the stairs. Finally I made it!

It was awe to be seen, electric waves formed form in various numbers while I walked over and in front of me were the controls. I knew it was too good to be true but suddenly I saw… MY BROTHER! But something didn’t look right about him. He stepped closer and closer until he began to dash for me; I saw quickly his eyes that were dark red but I was shot to the wall.

He formed his feet into magnets and aimed to me; I was pulled in and POUND! And pound after pound I felt my body because far more damage than usual before I tossed my brother over, hopped up but he grabbed me into his liquid metal arms and hurled me toward the massive core of electric water.

“You did good Calvin, coming here to destroy the core of my machines!” he said with a mad laugh.

I figured it out suddenly; he wanted to leave because the real brother had plans to take over Equestria as a whole.

“Why did you do this Kevin?!”

He gave me an evil smile as tears rained from face. I couldn’t believe it.

“Because… you and I are machines.” He pointed out in his words.

I felt so in raged that the stated various blow at him like if I gone mad. He pushed me back with anger equal to my and made a hole in my head, pulled out some liquid metal and smashed it on the floor with butte force; I could feel myself shutting down and becoming weak as he hammered his foot down on it like it was trash. I closed my eyes… It was a wired time for me because I saw vivid memories in my brain that flashed in front of me inside small boxes suddenly one appeared and said to me: “You are great Calvin” it was Twilight’s voice as I sat in the darkness. I realized they missed me, really bad.

Suddenly a power source appeared on my eyes and I awoke in a new mood. I bashed Kevin down, kicked him over into the core but maybe I knocked some sense into him for his eyes became there normal color. He holds onto the metal in fear.

“Calvin, I’m sorry! I’ll even fix Ponyville for you!” he shouted.

I could tell he wasn’t lying but something told me was. Suddenly I knew he was family so I gave him my arm and pulled him up. I pointed to the controls. Scrolling over, Kevin pushed the on/off on it. He told me also where the ponies were, they were locked out of cages. He even did a pubic agonize to everypony, even the queen and her sister.

I, in the meantime lived my life with my friends and my only family, don’t worry I repaired his little glitch which may have caused his madness in the first place, for now I say good bye.

THE END
