(Abyssinia royal palace)

"Let me remind you boy your guests are in my kingdom and I will not allow you to go around thinking you have a free claim to not only assault other guests in my country thinking I wouldn't know!" Damion yelled.

"Your guest has assaulted and mangled a diplomat and his escort along with now ten ponies of the Equestria Embassy!" The pony growled back. "And now you have them under lock and key like criminals! Must I remind you-"

"MUST I REMIND YOU THAT THIS IS MY COUNTRY! AND THESE ARE MY PEOPLE! AND I CAN NOT ALLOW YOU TO GO AROUND BEHIND MY BACK AND ATTACK SOMEONE WHO IS A GUEST IN MY COUNTRY THAT HAD COME HERE TO HEAL A DYING KITTEN!" Damion roared standing from his throne in a rage. "You best be glad I don't send your guards to the dungeon and not the healing chambers who should be guarding the Equestria Embassy as my great-grandfather and Celestia agreed to when the terms of our alliance were written before your father was even kicking in your grandmother's womb!"

Daimon stared down at the pony.

"You're harboring a fugitive of Equestria that is a-"

"Watch your tongue ambassador you are very close to outstaying your welcome here," The panther king poked a claw into the rich robes of the pony. "I believe we are done here... guards escort the ambassador to the embassy,"

Glare at the king the Ambassador turned with a huff and was out before passing by a certain guest they were speaking of, the pony glared at the red-eyed courier who simply stared back through his expressionless gasmask. Daimon gave a sigh at the sight while the courier approached the king of the country of cats.

"Six... I do apologize for what happened with the ambassador and his guard attempting to hunt you down I had no idea he was bold enough to do something like this," Daimon greeted the courier.

Shrugging the courier held his hands in his pockets before answering.

"It's fine Damion I've had worse experiences when visiting new places for the first time," Damion chuckled at the courier's words.

"I bet... but I do hope it hasn't ruined your first visit here in Abyssinia,"

"It hasn't a matter of fact this place is breathtaking," Six admitted. "Almost overwhelming,"

"Really now?" Damion smiled. "Why is that my friend?"

"Back in my homeland, we had nothing like this place... even the capital doesn't shed a light on your country," The courier stated holding out his hand to the palace throne room. "Don't get me started on all this!"

Damion laughed.

"Thank you... yes, Abyssinia is a beautiful place but wait till you see what the Jackals and Zebras have,"

"Jackals?"

The cat waved his hand.

"I get ahead of myself... tell me how is Aella's sister fairing?"

Six nodded.

"She making a speedy full recovery in about three days she'll be playing like a kitten her age again," Six answered.

Damion gave a chuckle at the good news before smiling.

"That's great to hear that little Marie will be alright," Damion spoke before he grabbed Six's shoulder pad. "But I must ask how long are you staying in Abyssinia after all it's not every day I have a guest like yourself come visit my kingdom,"

The courier chuckled slightly at Damion's words.

"I beat... but sadly due to some unexpected events I think it's best I take my leave," Six stated to which Damion frowned at that but nodded his head in understanding.

"Very well I do understand but next time you come to Abyssinia I shall ready a feast next time you visit to make up for the pony 'foul play' during your first visit," Damion moved his hand from the shoulder pad down for a handshake. "Till next time Six,"

The courier nodded before accepting the handshake but grabbing the king's forearm, Damion looks down at the handshake before the courier spoke up.

"I hold you to it," Nodding the courier broke free from the handshake before walking off with ED-E buzzing right next to him, Damion looked at his hand before giving a chuckling.

Turning to the leaving courier the panther king spoke up.

"Do you need a ride back?" Damion asked.

He lifted his hand.

"Nope, my ride is already here," Confused Damion took a step back at a strange sound and a shadow passing over the windows.


(Outside)

The guards pointed their weapons at the sight of the vertibird ready to defend themselves against the strange metal machine before them. Six walked up before patting one of the guards on the shoulder surprising the cat and causing him to turn to the courier.

"Don't worry this is for me," Moving passing the shocked guard before ED-E soon followed behind him before turning to the guard.

"*Chirping noises*"

The doors to the flying machine opened as the courier and ED-E boarded before Six turned back to the guards and even Damion who was outside holding a hand over his head. Saluting the king with a smile under his mask before shutting the doors to the cabin and taking off into the air leaving the king and his men in complete shock.

Sitting down in one of the seats Six tabbed a hand on the small console between the two seats all the while a hidden compartment opened up with a small set of drinking glasses and a bottle of Goodsprings whiskey. Pouring himself a glass the courier unsummoned his helmet before taking a shot of the liquid fire.

"What an interesting day,"

...

The trip back to New Navarro took one-fourth of the time as it did when he was riding with Aella, slowly the vertibird entered the opening in the hangar before coming to a complete stop. ED-E was the first to exit the air vehicle before shaking his frame.

"*Dramatic beeping*"

"It wasn't that long you floating pile of bolts... man not bad for a remote test flight huh?" Six asked to which ED-E beeped with joy.

"I know and I'm proud of it too you did good with the control matrix,"

"*Joyful beeping*"

Exiting the hangar the two walked into the tarmac to the living quarters.

"I was thinking should we add the remote feature to the la-" Six froze at the mat on the porch, any one else wouldn't have noticed it but Six wasn't normal.

"ED-E there hasn't been a breach of security. Right?" ED-E looked at his friend before down to the mat and gave a chilling beeping sound.

"Ready the units that damn device might have malfunctioned," Six reached out before summoning the compliance regulator causing ED-E to give annoying beeping. "I know what I said... I'm only using this because my snow globe collection is in there,"

Pushing the door with the front of his stun gun he entered slowly before turning the door to enter V.A.T.S but his pip-boy didn't detect anything in his visual. Slowly the courier looked around his home seeing someone had left the lights on and even broke into his fridge and touched his record player.

Slowly moving over to the record player seeing that the 250-year-old vinyl wasn't even damaged, the courier gave a sigh at the sight of old disks it took him forever to find a working vinyl player for these pieces of vinyl he found in fiend filled vault 3. ED-E moved past the courier watching his partner's back, the two looked at the couch before them not even having to look at each other the two moved forward.

Before they made it to the couch the two froze hearing the bathroom door open, slowly the two turned to the battle room seeing someone standing before them with a towel around her chest. Six took a step back at what he saw before him almost falling back into the couch at the sight of who was before him.

"The hell?"

The being looked at six with deep red bionic eyes before smiling.

"Kon'nichiwa courier six it's good to finally meet you," The canine looking female spoke in a lightly accented voice.

Six held out a hand before pointing to her.

"This... you..." Honestly, Six didn't know how to respond to what was before him, for it was just a theory on a combination of synthetics and splicing but the concept he designed was somehow now standing before him. "I..."

"*Alert beeping*" ED-E laser pointed at the figure ready to fire.

"ED-E NO!" Six turned to the female pointing a finger at her. "You... get some clothes on and sit the fuck down I want some answer,"

The female nodded before holding out her hand.

"Yeah, that's fair,"


(A long time ago)
(Earth- Big MT)

"Lobotomite I must insist! What your is Subjecting is impossible!" Klein shouted as loud as his auto system would allow while Six rolled his eyes while in front of a whiteboard with a few of the other brains.

"Klein wasn't that your whole job to do during the war? To do the impossible and cool your jets this only in theory," Six turned back to the whiteboard but the control freak that the brain was moved forward not happy that the courier had three other brains brainstorming on such an insane concept of science.

"But this very idea is affront to science! This is something a first-grader would come up with! This isn't true science!" Klein shouted.

"Actually doctor Klein the lobotomite might be onto something sure it's... different but this concept is quite remarkable I remember hearing something like this from the Institute of Technology in Boston of synthetic beings but what the lobotomite is stating is textbook," Doctor Zero stated.

"I was talking to the lobotomite not you O!"

"It's ZERO! With a slash through it Klein you know this!"

"I MUST AGREE WITH ZERO DR. KLEIN THE USE OF HUMAN DNA AS A TEMPLATE FOR THE SYNTHETIC ANIMAL TISSUE TO FORM A BOND IS REMARKABLE!" Borous narrated. "THIS ISN'T THAT DIFFERENT THAN THE CAZADORS OR NIGHTSTALKERS!!!"

"I... eh... but why is the theoretical subject a female!?"

Six and the two male brains stopped before turning to Dala.

"Um... that was my subjection Doctor Klein," The soft-spoken brain answered.

"And there is nothing wrong with that Dala this is just a theory,"

Klein rattled to himself.

"I am to assume Mobius will also be aware of this theory?"

"Yes of course,"

The leader of the think tank hissed at the sound of his rival being in on this new idea of science.


(Present day)
(New Navarro)

Six sat on his couch while he looked at the being sitting across the subject still processing at what was sitting before him...

A synthic android... with canine features while wearing a white Big MT jacket.

"So um..."

Six held up a finger to tell her to give him a second while still trying to process everything.

"Okay..." She tapped her legs with her hands before turning to look at ED-E who hadn't moved when she sat down and not having moved his laser that was trained on her.

Shifting in her seat the android watched while Six lowered his hand.

"First off... I'm not mad at you... just surprised you um-"

"Exist?"

"Not really the word I would say but sure go with that," Six moved his hand down. "I'm currently stumped at what I should be feeling right now,"

She tilted her head.

"What are you feeling?"

"Pride... confusion... shock... surprise... and confusion again," Six stated honestly before looking at her with his reptilian eyes. "Okay... who made you? Borous? Dala?"

"Morbius actually,"

"Figures... okay how did you get here?"

"A riftronulm,"

"A what?"

"Mobius name it not me... It is a device to open a small Einstein Rosen Bridge tracked close to your last location your last known location your transportalponder was able to transmit to the big empty,"

Six lifted his hand from his face.

"He created a device that opens wormholes?"

"Yes,"

"Of course... now why did Mobius send you here to find me?"

"He wished to know if you were alright," Six dropped his arm at her answer.

"Your joking,"

"No that is what he wished to know but now that I see you just fine I can tell him that your alright if he gave me a way to contact him," The android gave a slight chuckle. "Um... he didn't give me anything to contact him,"

"That sounds like him... I'm guessing he going to keep sending others?"

"Actually the device that brought me here was a one-use item since it burned out... due to the strain of the energy,"

"Of course," Six looked at the female.

"Um... we can always return with your transportalponder right?"

"Can't... the power core got fried when I first arrived here," The android blinked in surprise before rubbing the back of her head.

"So what now?" The android asked.

"You tell me..."

"I um... was supposed to find you but I did that so... um... what am I supposed to do now?"

"Well that's your choice," Six stated before summoning his flask while she gave a confused look.

"What you mean?"

"Oh boy... what I mean is that you a free to do whatever you want I wouldn't stop you as long as you don't try to kill me or ED-E or steal from us. I can give you some supplies and you can go out into this clearly very screwed up world that is home to a bunch of entitled ponies..."

"Yeah, I met a few," The android started rubbing the back of her neck.

"Or you can stay here," Six stated. "I'm kinda in more than one way responsible for you being here,"

The ear's on the synthetic perked up.

"You mean it?"

"Yes I may not have my actual birth heart anymore that doesn't mean I ain't heartless," Six stated while the android smiled. "You got a name?"

"I... don't but I have a serial number,"

"That's not a name," Six looked at her. "Do you have any idea for a name you would want?"

"How about Roxie?"

The courier stated at her.

"Okay that's a good name but I know a cyber-dog with the same name,"

"Oh guess that would be a little awkward," Six nodded.

"How about Amelia?"

"Is that what you want?"

The android nodded.

"My name is Amelia,"

"Nice to meet you, Amelia... ED-E and I could always use more help around the base anyways plus we need a third person to play cards," Six joked to which Amelia chuckled smiling.

"Thank you, courier,"

"Not a problem,"

"But one question,"

"Yeah?"

"Where am I going to sleep?"


(Abyssinia)

"Dad! Is it true that Six guys was here?"

Damion turned to see Salem running up to him while he was working on some paper work behind his desk.

"He was,"

"Why didn't you tell me I want to meet him!"

Damion chuckled at his son's comment.

"You will hopefully... Six had to go back home early for personal reasons of his but I did tell him when he comes back we'll throw a big feast,"

"Why?"

"Why not Six had saved the life of a little kitten not that older than you," Damion looked at his son. "Besides a good king is to also be a good hoist to his guests,"

Salem looked at his dad confused then suddenly the door to Damion's office burst open with a Zebra rushing forward with two guards hot on his tail.

"Forgive me your majesty but he said it couldn't wait,"

Damion waved his man to pick up the zebra.

"What your name son?" The panther king asked the still panting Zebra.

"I... must... find the one known as Six... my king needs his aid,"

Damion shook his head at the sound of the messager's words.

"What? What for?"

"Celestia... is most likely planning to start a war with my people," The Zebra panted while being patted on the back by one of the cats.

"Where is your escort?"

"We... were-" Before he could answer the messager passed out from having run for so long.

"Get him to the healers... and send for a message of my own," Damion ordered. "Also send for my war console... if Xavior people is in trouble we must be ready to defend our old ally,"


Author's Note

WOW! This was different...

Longer than normal but hey more plot and another chapter are I, right?

Like what happened to the messager's escort? Mobius created an android based on a theory the courier had. And there is a third nation of jackals?

Let's just say for that last one the desert is a VERY big place and the ponies like to copy others too so... let's just say the 'Egyptian' ponies of Somnambula's time were nomads and there were other races living there before them.

No spoilers... mind you.

As for the newly revealed Stalker...

Okay, I did base her off a mod fallout 4 but with the technology in Big MT who is to say it can't happen? Plus I think this mod is quite impressive.

(This may or may not be the reason she speaks Japanese...)

So yeah still impress how they were able to modify this into fallout...

Besides that, hope you all enjoyed this chapter and I'm hopeful I can get another out soon.

Also, Courier Six isn't Amelia's father or anything the only reason she used that term was Mobius is technically the one who created her to find Six but like the scatterbrain that he is he forgot to do the last 20% of his plan.
