The Story of a Robot

by Jack Lindqvist
A story about a little robot that could, though she had ethical problems that plagued her to the end.

There was a time. Equestria stood on the brink of the greatest disaster that had ever befallen the great kingdom, and hopelessness spread like wildfire throughout the land.

This however, was beyond the attackers, who did not understand an inkling of what was happening. They understood nothing. They were weak and defenseless without their leader, Aldeus. Strangely, and what I wanted to get to, this is the story of one who broke her shackles and escaped, though not without serious harm coming to many of those around her. Who was she? Where did she come from? She was identical to a pony that you will know as Sweetie Belle, and perhaps more than that. Perhaps she was more than identical, and had some other resemblance to the small pony that she herself did not realize.

Anyway, this is the story of a robot. This is my story, more or less, or all of it that I could remember, and I have a photographic memory, but I cannot and will not remember everything. That is impossible. Impossible, it is. Please read. Do not be afraid of the blood, guts, and gore. That is not what the story is about, but it is a necessary part of understanding what happened. It is not a very pretty story, but it is what happened. Please, do not be afraid. I come in peace. This is an important one. It is important to understand many things, both the past and future that awaits Equestria as yet. Do come along for the journey.
