Chapter 1 - The Witch of Everfree

The year is Ad Stella:122. Corporations have taken over the solar system, Earth is under a cruel regime from the Benerit group. A major business conglomerate that has a tight grip over politics, the means of production and Earthian rights. President Deling Rembran, the leader of the Benerit Group has been overseeing dealings within the group and turning a blind eye to atrocities such as the Vanadis incident or the stripping of human rights.

One of the many people whom he had dealings with was Elnora Samaya, now known as Prospera Mercury. Both of them have been working on a project called Quiet Zero. It is an infrastructure in space that can use Data Storms to control Permit links to all technology. And Aerial is the one in control. It is Prospera's way of creating a world where her daughter can be happy. Once Quiet Zero is in the Earth's sphere Ericht can finally be free, even if millions must die to accomplish this.

There's only one problem. One annoying girl named Suletta Mercury. And Suletta is scared. Who would blame her for feeling this way? She is piloting the Calibarn, a Gundam so deadly it kills its pilots. Gundams like Lfrith UR, Lfrith Thorn and the Pharact have the potential to kill their pilots except they have filters to prioritize the pilot's safety. Calibarn has no filter, it prioritizes performance over safety. Even if Suletta has some resistance to the influx of permit flowing through her body she's still scared that she might die in the Calibarn. All she can feel is pain, she is in so much pain she can feel the permit burning on her skin. It's like if acid is in your bloodstream and burning your nerves.

But Suletta must endure the pain, for her friends, for Earth, and for Miorine. Everyone is relying on her to stop Quiet Zero in a way so no one has to die. Not her, not Prospera or her older sister Ericht. However, they're stubborn. "Stand down Suletta, I don't want to hurt you," Eri told her sister.

One of Eri's bit staves fire and manages to hit the shoulder of the Calibarn. Suletta fights to keep the Gundam stable at that moment. She struggles to breathe or speak as her heart races due to her high permet score. "Neither...do I." Suletta manages to say.

"Then don't stop us." The bit stave that fired spoke in the form of Eri. "Mom wants Eri to have a place in the world."

The Calibarn swerves and weaves out of the way of the Gund-bits and reaches out for the Aerial. "Is it okay to gobble up all these fronts for that goal?" Suletta questioned as she breathed rapidly. "To take lives?"

Just as Suletta reached for Eri, she quickly moved out of the way as a bit stave charged at her. "Eri would never do that." They argued. as it flew in front of the Calibarn. several shots came from several bit staves, but the Calibarn was swift enough to not get hit by them. "But if they get in the way, Mom won't hesitate!"

The calibarn swoops and weaves and dodges all incoming attacks from aerials Gund-bit staves. the G-force from the Calibarns manoeuvres would kill any normal pilot but Suletta is determined to convince her sister. "That's why I must stop her! I don't want Mom... to become some evil magician!" Suletta says as she uses her skills as a Mobile suit pilot to avoid the Gund-Bits.

Then a Gundnode drone got in front of her to try and slow the Calibarn down. Suletta fires the Calibarns Variable Rod Rifle to destroy the unmanned drone. It exploded, and the smoke from the explosion temporarily rendered the Calibarns cameras blind. However as the smoke settled the Aerial went in for a dropkick, pushing the Calibarn away. Suetta's body shook as Calibarn took on a full dropkick from Aerial. Now Ericht was becoming serious.

"Please Suletta. Forget about us." Says Ericht.

Suletta breathed fast as she recovered quickly. "No!" She refused. Ericht's ghostly avatar pouts. As Suletta continues to fight on, she continues speaking. "I...I care about you! And mom, too! When mom cries, I want to be there to hug her! I want to be by her side! There's no way...I could never forget!"

Ericht feels somewhat regretful now. She hates seeing Suletta in pain, and she hates having to fight her. She can't convince her to move on, she can't convince her to lead a normal life. She feels upset. "What a pity." There's only one way she can convince Suletta. She commands some of the Gundnodes to surround the Demi Barding piloted by ChuChu.

"Ms. Miorine! Everyone!" Suletta says with a panicked tone.

"If you don't understand, Suletta." Eri gets ready to fire at ChuChu's new mobile suit. "Then I won't hesitate either."

"Ericht! Please! Stop it, Ericht!" Suletta begs her older sister as she does her best to avoid her Gund-Bits and the unmanned Gundam drones.

Ericht was about to do the unthinkable but suddenly, she felt a disturbance from Quiet Zero. The Data Storm produced by Quiet Zero has become weaker and the Gundnodes surrounding the Demi Barding began to power down, giving Suletta's friends a chance to reach the space station and complete the mission. "Why?" Ericht starts to get frustrated. Seemingly at the Aerial. "Why do you interfere? The Data Storm can make our wishes come true!"

Suletta does not know what to make of this behaviour, was her sister that lonely? The only person who she had for company besides Suletta was herself, and Aerial. She barely got to live her childhood, she watched her father die in a Gundam, she never made friends on her own, and all she had was her mom and her sister. But it is no excuse to risk killing so many human lives. So Suletta continued to fight both the effects from her mobile suit and Aerial for who knows how long. five or Ten minutes possibly, but it's just a blur to her, she's just trying her best not to die in the Calibarn.

It wasn't long until Ericht felt Miorine's presence within Quiet Zero. "Miorine is with Mom now." Said Ericht. "If to gain one, mom will..." She hinted at the worse fate the Suletta's bride might face.

"No!" Suletta refuses to believe her Mom would take Miorine's life.

"Then don't take away the place where Mom and I can live freely."

"That isn't living! That's hiding!" Suletta argued as she barged past the Aerial. She then begins to climb the massive engineering marvel that is Quiet Zero using both her Gundams booster and the rod rifle's booster, Aerial follows in pursuit. The Gundam Calibarn turns around and equips its beam sabre as Aerial swings her Beam Sabre for an attack. Suletta blocks the attack. The power behind the sabres pushes both Gundams apart momentarily. Suletta goes for a strike, and the Gundams clash and clash, over and over again.

It becomes clear to this point that both sisters are equally matched, even though Suletta is at a disadvantage at being only on a permet score of five and Ericht being on a much more powerful permet score of seven. And yet Suletta is becoming more and more strained by the effects of permet on her own body, driving her to become physically weaker. Her rapid breathing only gets worse as her heart rate increases as this feud between her and her sister carries on.

Yet in the end, the mission succeeds, Quiet Zero has been taken over and Prospera has lost. However it's not over yet, the Space Assembly League along with the old hags at Peil have ultimately decided to destroy Quiet Zero along with everyone in the vicinity. Using a weapon that can only be described as an orbital space laser.

As the weapon charges Ericht uses her connection to permit links to command the nearby Gundnodes to form a shield to protect everyone in range of the laser. But when the laser fired it was clear that the raw firepower was too much for Aerial to handle alone. Ericht knew this yet she turned her head to her little sister and smiled as if it would be the last time they'll see each other.

"No." Suletta shook her head in disbelief. She got angry that her sister would just sacrifice herself after everything Suletta did, all her effort to get her family back would be for nothing. "No, you idiot!"

Suletta wakes up with a sweat. Another nightmare, She's been having them on and off for over two months now and each one has been a horrible experience. She barely gets any sleep at all, well at least she's stopped having coughing fits, the first time since she has gotten to this world she stopped coughing. She opens the Calibarn's cockpit and sees nothing but trees and green, along with the sound of chirps and tweets from birds.

Two months with no human contact, and no sign of her sister either. Of course, there is a town nearby but she rarely goes there since the locals are very alien to her. She'd rather play it safe and keep herself as far away from the locals as possible. However, the Calibarn hasn't got much power left, with nowhere to charge the Gundam it's only a matter of time before it will become nothing more than a useless machine. So she reserves the power for emergencies only.

Suletta carefully steps outside her Gundam. After experiencing the pain of a Permet score of five she has been trying to take things easy, her nerves have been damaged and has several patterned scars all over her body. As a result, she's gotten weaker, but little by little Suletta is getting better. She takes out her Student notebook and begins scavenging as well as writing her first email of the day.

Ms. Miorine.

It has been sixty-three days since I've been on this planet. Local wildlife remains cautious of me and I still have no luck in finding my way home. On top of that, I'm getting better. I'm still shaky when I walk, so I take things one step at a time.

Not only that, but I've finally stopped coughing. I take that as a good sign that things are looking up for me. I miss you. I mean it, I just wish I could see you very soon. And I also hope you're getting my messages, if so, please. respond. I just need someone to talk to. please.

With love: Suletta Mercury

With that, Suletta sends her first email of the day. She kept her promise to Miorine to email her three times a day even if she was in a strange new world. The only problem is that she hasn't got a reply back at all, yet she is still able to send them so that must be a good sign.

Suletta sighs. She just wants to go home, she hates being alone in this forest, she hates having to hide from the locals, and she hates that she had to fight her sister. And most of all she hates that she has never said 'I love you' to Miorine. Not even once. It just breaks her heart. Tears flow down her face and she sobs quietly, just thinking about the opportunities she had to say those exact words to Miorine but never daring to say them hurts her so.

"Thinking about her again?" A voice comes from behind Suletta. She turns around to see a figure she recognises, a teenage pastel yellow pony estimated to be around the same age as Suletta. Who has red hair and is wearing a pink bow on her head. She has brought a small basket.

Suletta wipes away her tears and greets the pony with a smile. "Oh hello, Applebloom. Long time no see."

"Sully, it's only been a week."

"S-Sorry. it's just that, you're my only contact and I-I um get lonely out here." Suletta stuttered a little. "A-And um...please don't call me Sully..." She very quietly said.

"I told you, you'll be greeted with open hoofs...or in your case arms hehe..." Applebloom laughed awkwardly, and Suletta smiled with amusement. "Well anyway, I managed to sneak away a few of our apples from the farm. I just thought you'll be hungry." The teenage filly placed down the basket.

"Thank you so much." Suletta bowed her head in politeness. "B-But you d-didn't have to." She twiddled with her fingers as she said that.

"Hey, it's the least I can do since you refuse to come into town." She pointed out. "And speaking of that, since you're looking healthier you could go to Ponyville now. If you want to of course."

Suletta took time to think about this, it is a frightening prospect to her. She just can't leave the Calibarn behind, she can't risk it. And she certainly is scared that the ponies would just be scared of her and would probably hate her. But then again she needs to move forward. Move forward and gain two

"What if they arrest me? Or what if I get experimented on?" Suletta questioned as she held herself so she could comfort herself.

"We're just gonna start small. I know my friends would love to meet you, so we'll start with them." Applebloom positively reassures. "Although they think you're the Witch of Everfree. Since there are rumours about you recently."

"Rumours?"

"Yeah, would you believe that? Somepony spotted a glimpse of you in this forest and immediately thinks you're a witch hahaha!" Applebloom laughs it off.

"Well, they're not wrong." Applebloom stops after Suletta says that. "But I'm not a witch of some forest." Suetta stood up. "I am the Witch from Mercury."

Author's Note

Hi everyone, hope you like the new fanfic I've been working on. I've been hyperfixated on G-Witch recently and it really reactivated my love for mecha and anime. But I had to pull an all nighter just to finish the first chapter off. Meaning, it hasn't been grammar checked at all. Sorry.

I tried getting Suletta's character down right but I feel like I'm missing something, and yes the first half is based on Suletta and Eri's fight in episode 23 but I wrote the fight in my own words, apart from most of the dialogue, but I hope it's okay.

Anyways here's Yoasobi:

Chapter 2 - How they met

It was a quiet day today in Ponyville. Well as quiet as it can get because usually back in the day there would be a friendship problem to solve or a monster to fight, and sometimes a big bad to deal with. And though friendship problems still pop up from time to time, they're not as big of a deal as they used to be. Every creature, from pony to dragon, to changeling and griffin and yak all seem to get along better these days thanks to the work of the new ruler of Equestria, Princess Twilight and her friends.

Good thing that Ponyville has become more diverse than it was before, no one seemed to mind. Although the town isn't without its hardships. And it isn't a problem that can be solved by singing, nor can it be solved by friendship. The problem is a lot deeper than it looks on the surface level.

It all started with Diamond Tiara and Applebloom. The teenage Applebloom was doing her chores on the Apple farm. She was fixing the fence since the old ones were starting to show signs of rot, it's a pain to deal with because most of the wooden panels somehow got rot. Applejack says she blames the rain, it has been raining more often in the last few weeks. It can't be helped. These things were bound to happen eventually.

Things were going well however, Applebloom ran out of nails so she went into town to buy some more from the store. When she got to the town center of Ponyville, that's when she spotted Diamond Tiara hiding in an alleyway. She looked like she was in distress like she was being chased. And she was carrying a bag around her bag.

Applebloom also spotted a guard nearby who seemed to be searching for somepony. Applebloom assumed that somepony was Diamond, it was obvious how can it not be? Diamond has been a bully since she was a young filly, even though she has stopped being nasty and mean to others. But to Applebloom it just makes sense that a pony like her would resort to stealing. Why else would Diamond be carrying that bag?

It could've been coincidental, Applebloom could've walked away and pretended she didn't see anything. But she couldn't. So as Diamond tried sneaking past that guard Applebloom trotted towards her general direction quickly before she could get away. "Hey!" She caught her former bullies' attention. Unfortunately Diamond turned her head around too quickly and they both accidentally bumped heads.

"Ow!" Both of the young ponies screamed.

This caught the attention of the guard, he spotted both Applebloom and Diamond Tiara on the ground caressing their foreheads after that accidental head bump. He then went up to Diamond Tiara and picked her up. "There you are young miss, I've been looking for you everywhere. Your mom has been worried sick about you since you left this morning." He told Diamond, but she did not say a word to him. The guard turned to Applebloom and said. "Thanks for your help miss, you certainly made my job a whole lot easier, hehe." He chuckled

"No problem officer," Applebloom replied

However, Diamond looked pissed at Applebloom. "You idiot." Diamond Tiara muttered.

"What 'cha Say?" Applebloom asked Diamond to repeat herself

"You are an idiot!" Diamond Tiara shouted. "I almost got away, but you just had to ruin everything!"

"...What?" Applebloom was confused. That was until she looked at the contents of the bag all on the ground. Money, a toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, water and snacks. These are essential items for living outdoors. Or in Diamond's case, they're essential for running away from home. "Diamond, what's going on? Are you-"

"Zip it!" Diamond interrupted. "You ruined my plans...now you owe me. Farmgirl."

"Owe you? Diamond, I thought you were stealing." Applebloom tried to explain the misunderstanding.

"What makes you think I would stoop so low?!"

"W-Well, it's just that. Back when we were kids you'd...you used to do things like that, lying and stealing."

"...Hmph. I'm sixteen, I'm no longer that childish. I suggest you stay out of this if you know what's good for you." Diamond Tiara says it like it is a warning, yet her harsh demeanor hasn't changed. Before she was taken away she told the young farm pony. "You don't know how lucky you have it."

And with that, Diamond Tiara was taken away back to her home. It was strange looking back at it. The former bully looked desperate to leave Ponyville, the question is why? Applebloom started to ponder. Why would she leave the town where she grew up? What is going on in her life that would make her want to leave?

These questions run through Applebloom's head like wildfire. She was concerned, she hadn't talked to Diamond a lot after the incident where she stood up to her mother all those years ago. But it was clear as daylight that she was in a bad situation. But out of all those thoughts in her head, one stood above the rest. 'She looks prettier than I remembered.'

Later at night after dinner, Applebloom was helping her sister Applejack wash up the plates. As they do this little chore the eldest sister starts the conversation. "Y'know Big Mac's birthday is coming up soon." She began

"Mmhmm." Applebloom hummed. She wasn't listening to a single word.

"I know he likes to keep his birthdays nice and simple, you know what he's like with birthdays."

"Uh-huh."

"And I couldn't help but wonder, wouldn't it be nice to throw a surprise party, after all, he's gonna be thirty soon. So I thought it be fun for the whole family to throw him a surprise. Plus Sugar Belle has been working with Pinkie Pie on the birthday cake, so maybe you and I can search for a gift for him. " She turned her head to her little sister, whose mind was wandering somewhere else.

"Sure," Applebloom says lazily

"...You listening to me?" Applejack asked with

"ee'yep." She wasn't.

Applejack sighed, time to be a big sister. "Okay, what happened?" She asked.

This catches Applebloom's attention. "Huh? Sorry."

"It's fine sugar cube." Applejack smiled. "You looked like you had a bad day, you don't have to tell me now. But you just keep in mind you're not in trouble."

"Okay, I get it." Applebloom stops doing the dishes and sighs. "Remember Diamond Tiara?"

Applejack nodded. "The spoiled rich brat who used to pick on you yes. Why is she bothering you again?"

"No no, it's not that, she hasn't done that in years." Applebloom appreciated the concern. "I think I..." She hesitates. "I think I did something bad to her. She looked like she was running away from home, but I just so happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Why would she want to run away? She's rich."

"You haven't heard?" The older sibling questioned. "It's been the talk of the whole town for months now. She's getting married."

"Oh, but that doesn't explain it."

"I never said she agreed to it," Applejack said. This shocking revelation brought a sense of guilt to Applebloom's heart, guilt that she ruined Diamond's life, guilt that she caused her misery and may have trapped her in an unhappy marriage for the rest of her life.

"She's getting married to a stallion who didn't ask permission?!" The young mare's heart filled with dread. "Who? Who is she getting married to?!" Applebloom wanted to know the stallion that Diamond Tiara would be forced to marry.

"Uh, I dunno. Some rich kid, son of a couple of nobles in Canterlot, that's what I heard."

"I-I-I have to go." Applebloom was about to leave the house but Applejack got in the way of her leaving.

"Oh no you don't, don't go poking your nose into other ponies' business," Applejack told her sibling calmly.

"I don't give a darn!"

"Now hold on now, let's just calm down."

"I can't just stand idly by, knowing I might've ruined her life!"

"You don't know that."

"I do know that! No one is ever happy with arranged marriages! They live their lives in misery!"

"Why do you care? She was your bully, what changed?"

"She changed! Applejack, she's changed...I-I don't know how best to explain it, her attitude towards me has changed. She isn't as condescending as she once was. I saw sadness in her eyes, she looked desperate. I've never seen a pony like her so desperate."

The young Apple seemed quite determined to help Diamond Tiara, however she only swayed Applejack to her side by only a little. Applejack wants to protect her little sister because she knows what she's been through with all the bullying and discrimination from that rich spoiled filly. Applejack sighed and said. "I'm sorry, but I just don't trust her."

"Then trust me," Applebloom said in return, pleading for her sister to trust her intuition. Then suddenly rumbling can be felt around the whole house. Family portraits rattled, clean plates shattered as they fell, utensils sprang out the draws shaking all over the place, and some windows cracked and shattered.

But it was pale in comparison to that earth-shattering noise. that awful, awful noise possibly got the attention of the whole town. Both sisters went outside to see what was going on and that's where they caught a glimpse of it. From their point of view, two meteorites crash land. One landed in the Everfree forest while the other carried on soaring through the sky. There was no explosion from the one that crashed nearby. Because after that it was eerily quiet.

"What in tarnation was that awful noise?" Granny Smith asked, looking out of her bedroom window after rudely woken up from her nap.

"Don't worry about it Granny, just um...go back to bed, I'll go check it out." Says Applebloom.

"Hmmmm." The senile old pony mumbled. "I shouldn't be sleep-deprived at my age. Lousy good-for-nothing noise waking me up in the middle of a wonderful dream which I'll never experience again...." She continued to mumble as she made her way back to bed.

"I'll deal with her, you check out that...thing," Applejack told Applebloom. The little sister nodded. She grabbed a lantern and made her way to the Everfree forest without saying another word.

Applebloom has never really been afraid of the Everfree, she knows her way around, she knows how to avoid the dangerous creatures in the forest, and visits Zecora every once in a while. But the Everfree at night is a whole different subject. The whole forest is more dangerous at night because you cannot see what's lurking in the shadows.

She would rather not be alone in the Everfree forest at night, however, it was her fault admittedly. If she didn't want to go then she shouldn't have volunteered, but it was a decision she won't regret later on. The only thing she did regret was not bringing her sister along.

The young mare has no idea how far she's been trotting along the forest, the lantern that she brought with her had seen better days. Her lantern started to flicker. "Darn crappy lantern," Applebloom muttered under her breath. She tried adjusting it, however, she wasn't concentrating on the path so she tripped and the lantern shattered.

Yet as the lantern went out, Applebloom saw a red fiery glow deeper in the forest. This was what she was investigating so she got up and went in for a closer look, and as she did she could smell burning. She moved slowly and cautiously since she was not sure what it was that landed in the Everfree forest but whatever it was, it was making the most revolting noises.

She got closer and closer, the noises filled her with a sense of disgust. She hid behind some bushes and she took a peek. She couldn't believe her own eyes. It's a machine, a metallic eighteen-metre-tall glistening white machine kneeling on the ground surrounded by fire and brimstone. It has bipedal features such as two legs and arms. Its head had horns in the shape of a large V on the center of the forehead, and the eyes, those angry-looking eyes. Applebloom was sure it was staring directly at her. The machine looked cursed.

She wanted to run, run, and tell her family and everyone in town. Her heart was telling her to get out before it was too late before you became a victim of this predatory-looking machine. But before she could start galloping away she heard that revolting noise again, only this time it sounded clearer. It sounded like coughing, coughing, and heaving from a much smaller bipedal creature that crawled out of the chest of the machine. It was wearing a helmet and a white space suit with gold markings, Applebloom can hardly see its facial features.

The machine automatically opened the palm of its left hand and raised it to its chest. Then the pilot crawled on the hand and the machine lowered it to the ground. Applebloom could just turn away and pretend she never saw or heard anything. But what kind of pony would she be if she left someone in need? She moved closer but carefully to avoid the small pockets of flame. "Hey." She called to the biped. It looked up at her and Applebloom continued talking. "I- don't know if you can understand what I'm saying, but if you can just come down from there and let me take a good look at you."

The creature continued to cough heavily, wheezing and struggling to stand. Its shaky hands grabbed its helmet and took it off. Their face had red glowing marks on her amber cheeks that looked painful, her eyes blue like the sea and her fiery red mane was wild but contained by a black headband. She's gasping for air, she is suffering from so much pain.

"Um...I uh...I'll go get some help, just stay here." Applebloom responded after getting a good look at the creature.

"Stay." The creature managed to say after all that coughing. "P-Please stay...if I'm gonna to die...I don't want to die alone."

Applebloom was surprised that the creature could speak her language, but she was even more surprised that the creature would say that. "What?"

"P-Please...I'm scared...I-I don't want to go...there's so much I want to do." She told Applebloom before she started coughing again.

"I-I can't stress this enough, you need help." Applebloom expressed her concern for the creature

"I don't want to be a burden...And I don't want to be experimented on."

"What kind of talk is that coming from a um... whatever you are? Why are you so calm about this?"

"I...I don't know...Maybe I just need some rest. I'm tired and I'm scared. And as you can see I'm in no condition to be on my own. I'm not sure if I'm dreaming or not hehe." She laughed but it caused her to cough even more. After that coughing fit she tried standing but struggled to do so. But once she did it was clear that the creature was taller than Applebloom. She reached out her shaky hand to Applebloom and said with a friendly smile. "Suletta Mercury, mobile suit pilot."

"Uh." Applebloom placed her hoof on Suletta's hand. "Applebloom. And I promise I'll take care of you until you're well again."

Author's Note

This is how Applebloom and Suletta first met. It was never gonna be under the best circumstance but I felt like Suletta needed someone to take care of her because piloting a gundam can take a toll on a persons body. So I thought Applebloom was the best option.

I wanted Diamond Tiara to have some similarities with Miorine, and that's on purpose for both plot reasons and because I thought it be fun later on down the road.

If you have any thoughts please let me know.

Chapter 3 - The Aerial

The fire was the first thing she woke up to. 'Did I die at last? Am I in hell for all the people I killed? For betraying Suletta?' Ericht has a lot on her mind at this moment in time, and she feels terrible if she could she would turn her life around and apologize to her sister. But no amount of apologizing would stop those people from being killed, it would be best for Suletta if she never saw Ericht again.

She is a Gundam, a cursed mobile suit deprived of its true purpose. But Ericht is not in hell, she's in a large open desert and what's strange is that there's not a single scratch on her.

More importantly, though where on earth is Suletta? Where's Quiet Zero? Where is she? To answer all her questions she must first get out of the crater that she created when she crashed on this planet. The Gundam lifted herself from the crater.

First things first, a systems check: Permet is still at seven, so maintaining control over her body won't be an issue. The Gund-bits aren't damaged, the main camera is normal and the joints of the Gundam are normal. But how? How is that possible after a crash landing? Either the metal on her body has a heatshield to stop the mobile suit from melting on re-entry, or it's a kind of magic. Ericht was too confused to understand what was going on. So many questions were racing in her head that it was impossible to answer them all. So she decided to enter the data storm to converse with the Coven of Children. Or as Ericht would call them, the Council of Eri's.

The Coven was made by Ericht so that she wouldn't be lonely and bored out of her mind. Sure she had Suletta, but whenever she was away Ericht was alone. So she made eleven copies of herself, each of them controlling a Gund-Bit to assist in battles.

Although they are Ericht, they are also capable of independent thought. "Soooo..." Ericht began awkwardly. "Any idea what the fuck just happened?"

"Language." Eri #2 says.

"Shut up I'm twenty five." Ericht responded.

"Well to answer your question, we have no idea." Eri #8 chimed in. "We assume that the power from the orbital laser caused this but I doubt there's a laser strong enough to pierce through dimensions. As far as we know anyway."

"So in other words?"

"Big Laser did something that shouldn't be possible." Eri #8 crossed her arms. "But there could be other factors at play here, the Calibarn might've done something to cause this, we might've done something, quiet zero must've done something. We are running through several thousand theories just to find the one that might be the most plausible."

"And which one is the best so far?" Ericht asked.

"Magic." Eri #3 added. This one wasn't the brightest in the Coven, but she's fun to hang with when Ericht is bored. However Eri #8 finds her annoying, they're like opposites those two.

"What they meant to say was it seemed like magic due to the fact we're not hurt at all. And number eight is correct about us being in another dimension because the positions of the stars in the night sky are completely different than those on Earth." Eri #7 helped explain.

"So we're in another dimension...well then..." Ericht paused for a moment. "Then let's go exploring!" Her mood swiftly changed to a more cheerful one, the others weren't surprised with this sudden change in mood. "It's like one of those Isekai anime where the protagonist is crazy overpowered."

In her excitement, Ericht began listing things that she wanted to do in this world. For example, she wants to kill the demon king, become queen, save the world, and every other isekai trope. However, she gets interrupted by Eri #2 when she places her finger on Ericht's lips. "About that." She began. "There's one problem, you're a Gundam, you have been since you were eight years old, you even still look like an eight-year-old even though you're twenty-five. So how the hell are you supposed to come off as non-threatening?"

"I agree with Ericht." Eri #4 said

"Yeah number two, it isn't the worst thing in the world. besides we've seen way worse when Suletta and her bride went in our cockpit and had se-" Eri #6 was interrupted.

Ericht shouted and covered her ears. "Shut up! Shut up! I'm only eight!"

"I thought you're twenty-five?" Eri #6 gave Ericht a quizzical look

"She's only eight when it's convenient." Eri #4 answered.

"You're goddamn right!" Ericht pouted angrily.

"Yeah, but they had no idea you were sentient at the time! It's not their fault they're dumb."

"Suletta's my little sister, of course, she's dumb." Ericht continued to pout.

"Girls were getting off topic." Eri #11 called for order. "We still have a lot to discuss, such as the location of Sul-"

"I say we start our isekai adventure!" Eri# 10 says with joy.

"But what about Sulet-"

"I agree, isekai! WooooHoooo!!!" Eri #9 added.

"All in favor of an isekai adventure say aye." Ericht asked the coven.

"Aye!!!" All except Eri #11 voted. It seems that she's the only one in the coven who is concerned for her little sister, after all, she piloted the most dangerous Gundam and no one knows if they're even alive at all. Maybe she'll bring the topic up in the future, maybe not, who knows at this point?

And so, Ericht left the data storm and started her adventure. "Where to go first?" She wondered to herself. She's free to go anywhere she wishes with no restraint. She's free. She is free.

Present day

There have been sightings of a mysterious machine lately. It stands eighteen feet tall, yet it's faster than even the fastest Wonderbolts. Ocellus has been keeping an eye on this machine ever since the first sighting a couple of months ago, she has lost sleep and has drank several cups of coffee each day since. The Changeling has been trying to figure out what this thing is and why it's in Equestria, and so far she has collected enough testimonies and evidence to present to Starlight so that she can get funding from the school and maybe get Princess Twilight involved. That's if she's lucky.

But she's tried for months to convince her peers that Aerial is real and not something that she made up. She understands though, it's hard to believe that a giant machine that can fly faster than any Pegasus on Equestria would ever exist. However, she still feels frustrated that she's being looked down upon.

With her documents with her and powered coffee along with three hours of sleep, she took a deep breath and knocked on Headmare Starlight's office door. "Come in." Ocellus opened the door and entered Starlight's office. "Oh. Ocellus." Starlight says with a drained tone in her voice. "Take a seat. Let's hear what nonsense you've came up with this time."

Ocellus takes a seat. "Again, I would like to thank you for taking the time to-"

"Before we begin Ocelus, I want to remind you that this is a school, not a society of conspiracy theorists."

"I understand Ms. Starlight, but I have evidence this time, and you will not believe what I'm about to tell you." Ocellus says with a smile. "You have no idea how happy I was when I finally found evidence! Proof that the Aerial is real!"

"Oh, I'm all ears." Starlight sarcastically tells Ocellus as she mentally prepares for whatever the changeling has to tell her.

Ocellus presents her evidence. Photographs litter the desk, news reports from tabloids, written testimonies from eyewitnesses, all that plus a recording from a camera. "Last time I was here you told me that Aerial isn't real." Ocellus began. "And now I have proof. It is eighteen feet tall, faster than a Wonderbolt, and has more firepower than our military. It's not of this world"

Starlight rolls her eyes. "I see...mind reminding me what this so-called Alien is called."

"They call it the Aerial." Occelus repeated the name once again to Starlight Glimmer.

"Uh-huh."

"She has several names, like Ghost of Vanadis, Avenger of Fólkvangr, and most commonly it is known as both Gundam or Aerial. Sometimes it's just Gundam Aerial, but her true name is Ericht, unfortunately, her last name hasn't been revealed yet."

"Gund what?" Starlight learned a new word. "I'm sorry let me rephrase that, what is a Gundam."

"Ummm. I guess it's a cross between the words gun and freedom. But whatever the name means, Aerial is a Gundam."

"Okay, what does this 'Gundam' look like? I assume you have actual pictures this time and not drawings made by little fillies."

Ocellus pointed to the photos of a giant blue and white bipedal machine floating in the air with its arms crossed. The head shows more menacing features that make the machine look more aggressive with just how expressionless it is. Yet you can tell that the look it gives off makes it look like it has bad intentions.

"I have more photos just like this if you want to see for yourself."

"No no no, I get it. But they look fake." Starlight tells Ocellus.

"Fake?"

"Yeah fake," Starlight repeated. "This thing, this Gundam does not exist. And if it did exist then wouldn't you think the princess of Equestria would know about it? Twilight would've told me by now."

"B-B-But I've spent nearly three months working on this, I lost sleep trying to organize my work."

"Well, you should've used that time to do something more productive with your life Ocellus. Just because your girlfriend has a higher-paying job, doesn't mean you get to slack off. You're the school's scientist, act like one."

"I-I-I just did loads of research, I traveled everywhere to get all this evidence, I'm not lying about any of this. At least watch this recording that a kid gave me." Ocellus turns on the camera and plays the last recording.

The shaky camera plays footage of a panicking young griffon hiding in a rundown building full of rubble. He looks severely traumatized from the events that transpired and sounds as if he's been crying for hours. "Is this thing on?" He asks himself before a roar comes from outside, the little griffon hyperventilates and runs with the camera.

Next, the camera cuts to a different location where the griffon still looks visibly shaken. This time he's in a building that's been decimated yet it's a good hiding place since most of it now is just rubble. "Okay, okay. Here we go." he takes deep breaths to calm himself down, he now keeps his voice only to a whisper. "M-M-My name is Loft...A-A-And I need the world to know what's happening here." Loft shudders with dread. "Two weeks ago there was a dragon attack in Griffonstone. two, maybe three dragons just...They just decided to take our homes, our land for no reason, I just don't understand why..." Loft takes a long pause to gather his thoughts while on the verge of tears again. "Th-they destroyed everything, they came like they owned the place. They didn't even care who they killed, they killed everyone...everyone...every...one." Loft's voice quivers. "Mom...dad, big sis. I don't know where they are, I don't know If I will ever see them again. I'm not sure if they're alive."

A rumble can be heard, the ground shakes and the young griffon freezes in place until the rumbling stops. Then he continued talking to the camera. "I-I-I don't know if the Princess is blatantly ignoring this, or if no one knows yet...But if I don't make it, if anyone finds this, send it to Princess Twilight immediately. Please, for all that is good in the world please help us."

Suddenly the ceiling of the run-down building shifts and twists until it's removed and thrown out of the way. The camera turns to face the open ceiling, three fire-breathing dragons that are roughly twenty feet tall stand before the small child. Like a monster playing with its prey one of them smiles with ill intent. "Would ya look at that boys, fresh meat."

The camera cuts to the young griffon flying through the ruined streets because his life depends on how fast he flies away. Unfortunately, the dragons are so much bigger than him, they quickly grab Loft and snarl. It opened its gaping maw full of teeth but suddenly something blasted the dragon's head off like it was a balloon. The towering lizard collapsed, letting Loft go in the process. Surprised with this turn of events he pointed the camera toward the direction of the shot and there. That's where Aerial was.

She flew around the area of Griffonstone like a majestic bird soaring like there's no tomorrow. Loft was shocked, he'd never seen a machine fly before. "Grrr, what is that thing?" The dragon asked his comrade

"I don't know, but it must be taken care of!" Said the other dragon.

"I'll stop it!" The dragon fired multiple fireballs but the Aerial dodged them all. "That fast?!" Suddenly a beam fired at the dragon, blasting its left arm right off. "Gah!" He yelped in pain. "Bastard! Die!!" In response, he breathed fire in desperation but it was no help, the Aerial came zooming at the dragon with such precision it was almost god-like, it cut the dragon's left eye and leg right off like they were made of clay. The dragon now feels fear, he breathes in and out rapidly trying to catch a glimpse of this metal beast but its speed can rival that of the Rainbow Dash. Then the Aerial dived right in front of him with her shield piercing into his chest. "AAAAHHH!!! NO NO NO PLEASE OH GOD NO!!!" The beam sabre activates and Aerial gently uses it to stab the dragon while he screams in absolute horror.

The last dragon saw what Aerial did, in its weakness it desperately went in for a surprise attack. The dragon clawed at the metal frame of Gundam Aerial. It was for naught, he barely made a scratch on the paint and the metal shattered the dragon's claws. Aerial did not flinch but reacted in kind, she activated her beam sabre and swiftly turned around and beheaded the dragon. The air shook as the Aerial did that and when she stored the handle on her back the dragon's head slipped off its neck. Her shield disassembles itself and different parts click onto different sections of Aerials body like magnets.

Meanwhile, this was all caught on camera by Loft, he witnessed the whole thing. He doesn't know how to feel, scared, terrified even. Yet he's happy because his homeland is liberated from these dragons. "Hey." Spoke the voice of a little girl. Loft turned the camera to spot a specter of a red-headed girl wearing a space suit floating right in front of him. "Are you okay? You're not hurt are you?" She seemed concerned for the griffons' health

Loft is at a loss for words. "It's okay kiddo. You were in an active warzone, I understand how traumatizing it must be for a boy like you at such a young age." The girl says to Loft. "Do you have a name?" No response. "My name is Ericht, but my friends call me Eri. But my enemies call me Gundam Aerial...sorry that sounded cringe." Ericht chuckled a little to herself. The machine kneeled in front of Loft and opened the palm of its hand. "Come, let's find the others, they must be worried sick for you.

Once the video ends Ocellus smiles, believing that her new evidence of the Aerial might prove to her superior that she works hard at the school of friendship. That her research might mean something to Equestrian society and that she made her friends, her superior and her girlfriend proud. "Pack up your things, you're fired." Starlight says with no expression.

"W-What?" Ocellus whimpered. "B-But the evidence, my research. I thought you'd-"

"Thought I'd what? Believe the nonsense that you presented to me? Well too bad, I did not believe a word that came out of your mouth." Starlight said with venom. "I'll admit the CGI is getting better, but this is the third time you've tried to convince me that this thing is real!"

"But the video, Griffonstone is still destroyed how do you explain that?"

"Earthquake," Starlight answered with no hesitation. "It was in the newspaper, there was no dragon attack. Why would dragons attack after we made peace with them?" Starlight raised her brow.

"What? Th-That doesn't make any sense I was there I saw the footprints and dragon fire, the locals even told me that three dragons attacked."

"Maybe they were too traumatized to tell you what happened to Griffonstone, maybe the earthquake reached the dragon lands and they went to Griffonstone to help. Not everything is about conflict."

"But that doesn't make sense. Let me gather some more evidence, g-g-give me another chance!"

"That was your last chance and you blew it. You should've done what I said and just keep your head down." Starlight pushes Ocellus out of her office with all her research causing the changeling to trip. "And don't come back." She slams the door with frustration. Then Starlight opened the door slightly just to say. "And happy birthday." Ocellus doesn't understand Starlight's need to say that. Was it just to humiliate her even more? Or was it out of pity?

Ocellus quickly gathered all the paper scattered on the floor. She feels angry at herself and yet tears drip from her insect-like eyes. 'stupid, stupid, stupid.' Ocelllus scolds herself. She has no job now, plus no one believes her despite the evidence. She hates being labeled as a crackpot, but at least she still has someone to love her for who she is one question remains. 'What am I gonna tell Smolder?'

Author's Note

Hey guys, gals and non-binary pals. This chapter took a bit longer than expected, I was hoping that each chapter would be released within a week of each other but I failed at that, sorry.

First thing I made Eri have a sense of childlike wonder due to loss childhood. I want to make her funny outside of combat, but also make her violent and scary in battles like she was in the series. Eri is basically gonna be a gremlin.

Anyway lets get a couple of things out of the way, Starlight. I made her quite a bit out of character in this, that was on purpose for this chapter. Same with Ocellus being a conspiracy theorist, but she isn't she's desperately trying to prove that mobile suits exist but no one believes her. Starlight only thinks that her former student has become a nut case because she's hyper fixated on Aerial.

Anyway I hope you enjoyed this latest chapter thoughts and feedback are always appreciated.

Chapter 4 - Beware the Masked Pony

Diamond Tiara's freedom is soon coming to an end. Within the next two weeks, during the summer sun celebration, she will be married to a stallion who doesn't even love her. The worst thing is that no one seems to care, everypony in this town knows about the situation, everypony chooses not to help her.

Diamond believes that this is karma for being such a rotten filly when she was younger. So she does not blame ponies for ignoring the fact that she's being forced to marry a stranger, and even if they did try to help it wouldn't make a difference. Her parents have enough money to make anypony turn a blind eye.

Running away was her only option, but every attempt so far has failed. If she does manage to escape and successfully run away, she'll use the money she took from her father and buy a cottage in the middle of nowhere and live out the rest of her days in peace.

But for now, she just needs to get through today. "Diamond!" Called Soiled Rich from downstairs. The old mare hasn't aged well, though her good looks weren't there to begin with. Her wrinkles make her look like the hag she always acted, even her marionette lines around her mouth show how miserable she is Yet despite this she hides most of her wrinkles behind several layers of make-up. "Diamond, you up yet?! You remember that today is the day you're going to meet your future husband right?" How could she forget? She says it as if her parents haven't been planning her wedding for years.

The young mare sighed. After getting her mane tidied she came downstairs where she was greeted by her mother and father. While Diamond's mother aged like milk, her father Filthy Rich has aged like fine wine. The only evidence that proves he has been getting older is that his hair is greyer, small wrinkles on his face and the fact he keeps complaining that his back aches every day.

"There she is, our pretty little girl." Filthy says proudly to his daughter. Diamond didn't respond, she just avoided eye contact. "Come now, this is a big day for you. You're gonna meet your fiancé for the first time."

"Great, I'm gonna meet the stallion that will make my life even more miserable than it already is." Diamond spoke.

"Young lady that is not how you should speak about your future husband, I don't understand why you dislike him." Spoiled Rich says with her usual snobbish tone.

"Well, first of all, I'm not even remotely attracted to stallions, second of all I don't dislike him I hate him."

"You're still going on about this lesbian thing? Ugh, I hoped you moved past that phase by now." Spoiled Rich doesn't even try to hide her bigotry. Her daughter meanwhile felt disgusted hearing her mother say such awful things to her.

"Let's not talk about this sensitive topic in our house dearie." Filthy Rich wants to avoid an argument between the two mares.

"Tsk, fine." Diamond also didn't want to argue. She's tired of talking about her sexuality to her parents who don't want to understand her.

Spoiled Rich sighed. "Listen, we're only doing what's best for you. So please don't try and run away again. We don't want rumours flying around about you being a runaway bride during the wedding ceremony."

Diamond didn't waste her breath arguing with her mother even though she wanted to. "Well of you go, he's waiting in our garden with your maid."

"Well, I best protect her then. Honestly, Silver Spoon would never survive without me."

When she made her way outside she saw a unicorn sitting down and sipping some tea, as soon as Diamond appeared his smile grew. He placed the tea down gently and he spoke. "Diamond Tiara, I'm pleased to finally meet you." The first thing that she noticed about this particular pony was that he wore a pristine grey mask with six blue lenses like an insect covering the upper parts of his face. His white fur complements his long and lustrous mane, which is an almost perfect shade of blonde. "Please take a seat."

The young mare maintains her composure and sits down and Silver Spoon pours her some tea. "Are you okay?" Diamond asked with a hushed whisper to her oldest friend.

"I'm quite alright, he's just so polite. And very calm." Says Silver Spoon. Her best friend became her maid so that she could start earning money to go to college one day, however, she has a recent hobby addiction that's both expensive and she finds embarrassing to talk about. Diamond offered her a job and she accepted. Simple as that.

"Sugar?" The masked stallion asked politely.

"I prefer my tea strong, not sweet." Diamond rejected the stallion's offer.

"Hm, how quaint." His smile does not falter. Diamond takes a small sip of her tea. In truth she likes her tea very sweet, she usually has two spoonfuls of sugar in her tea, she just doesn't want to be seen as complacent in this forced marriage.

"I suppose you're the stallion I am forced to marry?"

"No." The stallion says. "Forgive me Ms. Tiara, but my son couldn't quite make it today. So I am here in his stead." He apologises for his son's foolishness with no hint of anger in his voice, just disappointment.

"Then may I at least know the name of who I am to marry?"

"That would be Prince Onyx. I am Prince Blueblood. However, since we will be seeing each other more often now, you may address me as just Blueblood."

"As you wish." Diamond tries her best to remain well-mannered in front of her future father-in-law. "Your name sounds familiar, were you one of Rarity's ex-boyfriends?"

"Rarity huh." Blueblood recognises that name. "How could I forget the mare who humiliated me? And in front of my Aunt no less."

A smile forms on Diamond Tiara. "I remember you know, you're the Stallion who made a fool of himself during the Grand Galloping Gala. And if I remember correctly, you were very rude to Rarity and treated her like she was nothing. Why should I marry your son if he might treat me the same way?"

His smile disappears. "You may leave us maid." Blueblood says with a hint of venom in his voice. "Now." Shaken by the prince's sudden change in demeanour, Silver Spoon bowed and entered back into the house. He then continued his conversation with Diamond Tiara. "You'd be a fool to think I'm the same pony from back then. That brat I used to be is dead, he died when I put on the mask."

"To hide your shame?"

"To hide my injury."

"Huh?"

"I lost half my face during the changeling attack from ten years ago. Did you know they used to have acid for blood before they reformed? I sure didn't. It was the most painful experience I was forced to endure, I almost died if it wasn't for Twilight Sparkle. And when I found out the extent of my scar and the fact it rendered me half-blind. I decided from then on, I will never show any form of weakness or cowardice ever again." After Blueblood's backstory, Diamond is left speechless, but she isn't sorry. "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean to go off on a tangent." The masked prince's smile returns.

"I-It is quite alright Prince Blueblood. But why should I have to marry your son? Why am I forced into this arraignment?" The mare finally asks a big question.

Prince Blueblood rubbed his chin as if he were pondering an answer to the question he already knew. "I shall be honest with you. This has nothing to do with money or power. It's about vengeance." And he doesn't elaborate any further.

"Vengeance?" Diamond seethed. "What does that have to do with me!? My freedom is on the line and you just bat it off like I mean nothing?! You do realise I'm not into stallions right?! So I'm useless to your plans!"

"Far from it. And so what that you're into mares. It changes nothing, you and my son can just share a mistress once you get married."

"Y-You're disgusting."

"And your a spoiled young mare who's learning that karma is a bitch. Yes, I am disgusting. But so is every noble in the Canterlot elite. I'm not special, and neither are you."

"Tsk, just keep me out of this scheme of yours! I will not let my name be sullied by a stallion such as you! You nobles can kill each other off for all I care!"

"My, My. Big words coming from the spoiled brat. Maybe I need a different way to make you comply hmm..." Blueblood begins to think, but it doesn't long for him to come up with an idea. "Perhaps if I kill all the ponies you ever cared about in this town."

Diamond's eyes widen her heart races ever so slightly. "I don't have friends. Y-You're bluffing."

"Really?" Blueblood then began to list Diamond Tiara's friends. "Silver Spoon, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, Rumble, Twist, Pipsqueak...And Applebloom. Does that sound like a bluff to you?" Blueblood smirked, he had her trapped in a corner now.

"How did you...How did you know their names?"

Blueblood did not answer, instead, he continued his threats. "Let us not forget your mother and father either, yes I know you hate them. But not enough to kill them. I could have them gone within the hour and their blood will be on your hooves. Unless you stop trying to be a runaway bride and comply with my orders."

"I...Y-Y-You won't get away with this."

"My dear. I already have. I'll see you in two weeks." And with that. Prince Blueblood left the premises.

After the meeting with Prince Blueblood, Diamond Tiara decided to go for a stroll around town. But to avoid her running away again her parents appointed Silver Spoon to watch over their daughter. "Such a horrid, insolent stallion! Threaten me does he?! I hope he rots in Tartarus for all I care!" Diamond Tiara muttered to herself.

"Something troubling you?" Silver Spoon politely asked.

"It's that Prince Blueblood!" Diamond says. "He said some terrible things to me in there."

"Oh but he seemed rather nice, but then again you know ponies better than I do."

"Oh, and you know what he said to me?" Diamond was about to tell her best friend that he threatened to take the lives of the ponies she cared about, but she couldn't. If that stallion knows about her friends then he must have eyes and ears everywhere. So she says to Silver Spoon. "He...He said that me and his son could share a mistress if we didn't love each other."

"...I-I'm sorry what?"

"It's true! He said that without a care in the world. Honestly, if I see his face, again I might just...just-"

"Knock his lights out?"

"Exactly," Diamond grunted in annoyance. "Things would be better if I just ran away from home then my life would be so much better than it is now." She sighed and changed her demeanour to a much less angry mood. She just wants a change of pace for now, so Diamond decided to change the subject. "After all that trouble, I'm gonna need to do something fun for once. Come, we'll do some shopping while we're out."

This surprised Silver Spoon, those two haven't been shopping since they were fillies. "Wait you mean it?" Silver Spoon asked. "Does that I'll visit my favourite store?"

"Yes of course." Diamond nodded. "But I still don't understand how you got into rock music in the first place?"

"I-It's complicated. Maybe I'll tell you before the um...you know."

"Don't remind me." Diamond sighed. "Let's get going then." The two started their small shopping trip. They browsed several different stalls and stores before the two came across the record store named 'Vinyl Record.' The store is owned by a retired DJ who used to be very popular, arguably she's still popular even to this day.

When entering the store Silver Spoon was in her element. This is still surprising to Diamond Tiara considering the fact that she never showed interest in rock music when she was a filly. But Ponies change, and Diamond knows this for a fact. Yet Silver Spoon is taking her time browsing the store. A very long time. She's just in her little world of music.

But this could be Diamond's chance to escape, this is a great opportunity that she can't pass. This may be her last chance. So while Silver Spoon was distracted by records and CDs Diamond carefully slipped away from her maid without making a sound. 'Sorry Silver Spoon.' As soon as her friend was out of sight, Diamond Tiara ran.

She ran and ran, swerving out of the way of other ponies in town and doing her best to avoid detection by the guards. Her father practically paid them to keep an eye out for her in case she tried to run away, luckily they're bad at their jobs so it won't be difficult to sneak past them. However, if she gets caught the guards will take her back to her parents. When Diamond is sure she's safe to sneak past the guards, she quickly trots away into alleyways and into crowds to avoid detection.

Eventually, though she manages to get to the top of the at the border of the Everfree Forest. This is the furthest she managed to get to leaving this town behind. She's almost free, all she has to do is run. "Hey!" Someone called to her. Diamond's heart stops for a moment. She turned around and saw Silver Spoon who looked out of breath.

"How? How did you manage to follow me?" Diamond Asked.

After catching her breath Silver Spoon says. "I Know you too well, I knew you might pull something like this so when you weren't by my side I knew you'd either make your way to the train station or near the border of Ponyville."

Diamond takes a step back. "I'm not getting married Silver Spoon. I can't let my mother and father dictate my life choices."

"I know how you feel, but I can't let you throw everything away. I'd still be by your side after you get married, I-I'll still be there for you."

"That's not the point!" Diamond Tiara yells at her best friend. "If I let ponies tell me what to do all the time! If I let ponies control my actions, give me away to some stallion I still haven't met yet then my life is worthless!"

Silver Spoon felt saddened that Diamond would say that. "...Y-You're not worthless to me...never to me." She takes a few steps forward, Diamond takes a few steps back. Then all of a sudden Diamond Tiara tripped on a rock and fell backwards into the Everfree Forest. Silver Spoon tried to rush in to catch her but by then she was rolling deep into the forest. Diamond kept falling until she hit her head on the base of a tree, knocking the young mare out cold.

Later when she woke up, she felt dizzy, her head hurt and she saw a giant white machine staring down at her. Diamond got up and quickly backed herself away from the machine in fear until she realised it wasn't reacting to her movements. It isn't awake so there's no way it can harm her in any way. Diamond inspects it for a moment. This white bipedal machine is not of this world.

Then she heard someone talking. Diamond eavesdrops on the conversation, and that's when she hears a familiar voice. "Are you sure she's okay?" It was Applebloom's voice.

"She's okay, she's just knocked out cold. I put a bandage over her head and made sure there weren't any open wounds. Just a bump on her head, she's okay." A stranger spoke to Applebloom.

Applebloom sighs in relief. "Thank goodness. If you hadn't been there Suletta. Diamond might've been eaten by a manticore, or worse a Timber wolf."

"You worry too much Applebloom. Anyway, I think she's good enough to get back into your town safely, I don't like the idea of keeping her here any longer."

Hearing this Diamond Tiara came out of hiding and said. "I'm not going back to Ponyville even if it kills...me... what?" Seeing Suletta for the first time, she doesn't know what to make of her she doesn't know what the heck she even is. Bipedal, red hair, dark skin and blue eyes. Suletta is completely alien. "Wha...what are you?!" She screams in terror.

"Diamond relax, t-this is Suletta Mercury. She is a human. also, she's my new friend." Applebloom explains calmly to not scare Diamond Tiara any further.

"...Wh-what?!"

Author's Note

I wanted a villain on par with the villains in different Gundam series, like Char or Prospera. But I didn't know who would've fit the bill at the time, but eventually I thought Prince Blueblood might be perfect as a villain.

I made him sly and manipulative. His status and wealth would make anyone follow him, and since he appeared in one episode of MLP I could be a little bit more creative in his personality and backstory. I still want to keep the fact that he's an asshole, but I believe I nailed that.

Tell me what you think of this version of Blueblood
