The beginning of the end.
At a small house, Someone was just waking up from his nap, after his alarm rang loudly, his blue cat alarm that was laughing Evily.
“HA HA HA! WAKE UP! WAKE UP YOU LAZY BUNS! HA HA HA!” laughs the alarm clock, as the sleeper got up and pressed the off button on it.
“I had to have her get me that clock for me as a birthday gift….” Says the sleeper getting up.
He was Ben Tracker, a student of Canterlot High School, and a member of the sports team, he had blue skin, Dark blue hair and light blue eyes, and was well build and Tall.
Ben did a few things, He took a shower, brushed his teeth, get his clothing on later, Which was a black T-shirt blue pants.
He walked through his house, walking downstairs to the kitchen, opening the cabinet taking out some rice crispy cereal, and Milk from the fridge and getting himself a spoon
Taking a seat at the table with his bowl, And poored in the milk and once done, that Boy began to eat his cereal, as he thinks what he was going to do today, he could hang out with a few friends today maybe? He was invited to hang out with Flash and his friends during the summer.
Ben shrugged at that, maybe another time he does have other options as he was thinking while taking another scoop of his cereal.
“Hey bro!” a female younger voice said.
Ben looks to see, a small white skin girl with Gray hair wrapped in pigtails, and gray eyes, she was wearing a white T-shirt and Black shorts with Gray socks and Black and blue sneakers, and fingerless gloves.
This was Ricka Tracker, Ben 11 year old Little sister and one of his two siblings.
“Mind if I join ya?” asked Ricka.
“You can girl.” Says Ben, As Ricka smiled and walked up the table.
Ricka pulled out a chair, Sat at the table, Poored herself some cereal and began to eat with her brother, the two ate in silence before Ben spoke.
“I Assume you have plans today?” asked Ben.
Ricka smiled and nodded to her brother quickly at this, as she puts her spoon down in her bowl as she has her hands together and having a bright smile.
“of course! I invited my best friends over!” excitedly says Ricka.
That she even stands on her feet on the table, her smile not even leaving her face as Ben has wide eyes, before letting out a sigh.
“Oh great….” Ben says annoyed using his fingers to rub his forehead.
Ricka smile drops, as she glared at her brother her hands on her hips now as she looked at her brother wondering why he’s annoyed.
“what? Don’t like my friends or something Big bro?” asked Ricka cheeks puffed out childishly.
Ben waved his hand, before he replied.
“No no I like them it’s just…. Normally you four somehow get into trouble and how do I say? Really irresponsible.” Says Ben as Ricka have a offended gasp.
“Ridiculous! What makes you think I’m And my friends Applebloom, Sweetie bell and Scootaloo are irresponsible?” Ricka argued.
“Oh gee, let me think…” says Ben deciding to point out some things. “that time you and those three went to a Junkyard?” pointed out.
A month ago.
Ben was walking to the Junkyard annoyed, And Next to him was Applejack, the older sister of Applebloom, who was walking next to him.
“You got a call Here to?” Asks Ben to the farmer girl.
“Yup.” Says Applejack, With a annoyed sigh.
“your not happy either?”
“nope.”
“figures.”
After that, the two talked to the person who was watching the place, who lead them to the girls, and when he and Applejack got there, they where looking at Ricka, Applebloom, Sweetiebell and Scootaloo with narrowed eyes.
Ricka the first of the nervous children was the first to speak.
“Ah we where just ah looking for something here to help make something?” says Ricka, as the adult with Ben and Applejack spoke up.
“There just lucky I got to them before my dogs got more then a boot from them.” Says the middle aged man petting his pitbull next to him.
And shows them, Applebloom bitten up boot, and Applejack glared at them as Ben was face palming at this stupidity that almost got them hurt.
“ you are all in so much trouble.” Says Applejack seriously.
All four gulped.
Back to current time.
Ricka rubbed the back of her head, as she blushes in emberassmennt there. “ok? Ok I’ll admit that was stupid….and I was in trouble for a two weeks for that….” Pointed out Ricka.
Yeah, There parents where really not happy about that when they found out.
Ricka, she Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle are close friends, and they do get into trouble from time to time, but they have the others back, and they really do work well together at school and also outside and have a lot of fun! And Ricka will never say it out loud since she’s worried it may ruin some things between them.
But she has a secret crush on Applebloom.
Ben thinks, he taps his fingers for a few seconds, Ricka was a little nervous that he may say no to her friends sleeping over, he does have reasons to, and he is in charge of her since there parents are away at the moment, and the fact there other Sibling Ren lives on his own with his wife Miss Cheerilee, Ricka Tracker Teacher, and hers and her brother Ben sister in law, Ben pretty much was in charge.
Ben shrugged then. “ alright they can come over.” Says Ben, agreeing to this.
Ricka smiles “yes!”
But Ben raised a finger. “but rules, first? Don’t you or them go through my stuff.” He then raised a second finger. “two? Don’t break anything and third?” he raised a third finger. “Bed by 8:30 pm.”
“9:30.” Argued Ricka.
“Deal.” Ben agrees.
The doorbell rang, Ben looks to the door, and to Ricka his eyes narrowed.
“You called them to come before asking my permission did you?” asked Ben eyes still narrowed.
Ricka just smiled and nodded.
Ben lets out a sigh, His sister was always a devious planner, that’s for sure, so he gets up and goes to answer the door and with a smile he saw the three, And they spoke at the three same time.
“Hi Ben!” says Applebloom Scootaloo and Sweetie belle.
“Hey you three.” Says Ben as he moves aside. “ Ricka told me you three where having a sleepover, well I hope you three won’t cause to much trouble, And also I really hope that you work burn my house down.” Says Ben with a playful glare.
Applebloom puts her one hand on her hips, giving Ben a fake hurt look while putting her other hand on her chest.
“oh Ben! I’m hurt do you really see us as that bad as troublemakers?” says Applebloom.
Ben did a façade thinking look, that was only for a second.
“Yup….but your my sister’s friends so come in.” says the older boy, as the three younger girls chuckled and come into the house, Ben closing the door behind them and locking it.
Once inside, the three girls ran to Ricka, Scootaloo speaking to the white skin girl first.
“Hey Ricka!” says Scootaloo, as Ricka gets off from her chair and smiles at her friends.
“Glad you girls decided to come.” Says Ricka as she looks at Scootaloo. “So? I assume you brought those videogames for the Xbox 360?” asked Ricka as Scootaloo pulled off her backpack.
And opened it, showing inside of it that they were ten videogames in it, along with some Candy and also sodas and other surgery sweets, Making Ricka smile widely as she and the other girls of the gang smiled widely at this, and the Three jumped excitedly and went to Ricka room to play some videogames.
But for Ben, He decided to watch some TV in the living room that was next to the Kitchen, there he puts on some TV and began to watch it, while his sibling was playing with her friends in the other room.
As Ben settled into the cozy couch a familler sound of laughter and chatter and the sound of videogames was heard, he clocked the TV remote and the screen flickered tonlofe revealing his Favorite show, Looney toons, some people may consider it old fashion but he does enjoy old cartoons at times.
But then, the screen changed, and he saw much to his confusion the tv screen changed to a urgent message.

The scene faded back to the emergency alert graphic, leaving Ben confused there.
“What the?” asks Ben tilting his head, But still he did do what it says, as he went to make sure all the windows where locked, and even the door, he was curious what was going on that a alert like that happened.
Still, as he was doing that, His phone rang and he looked at it, and saw who was calling was what he saw Sweetie Bell older sister Rarity, Ben picked up.
“yes?” says Ben to Rarity. “hey Rarity.”
Verity's voice came through the phone smooth and polish as always. “Hello Ben, I'm so glad you picked up you heard the report I assume.”
“Pretty much,” Ben Replies, a hint of weariness in his tone. “but I'm sure it will blow over sooner or later these things usually do right?”
He says while looking on the TV.
Rarity sighed softly, Concern palpable even over the phone. “well hopefully I need you to promise me something please make sure that my sister is out of trouble okay I don't want her getting involved with anything serious and I'm sorry that you have to watch over them a bit longer along with her friends you know how our sisters and their friends can get mischief at times.”
Ben chuckled lightly, trying to lighten the mood. “oh trust me I know all too well it's like they have a radar for trouble but I'm keeping my eye on them I promise they might be a handful but I wouldn't trade the experience for anything just think it as an adventure…or more accurately make sure they don’t do anything stupid.”
Rarity chuckle was heard.
“that it is indeed just remember to keep them in line everything you step it in like this it means so much to me especially who has been going on right now and may not see my sister for a few days or something.” Says Rarity on her side.
“yeah, don’t worry I’ll do my best to take care of them till then.” Ben saw that someone else was calling on his phone, who was calling now was Applejack on his phone. “hey Applejack calling, will call you back.” Says Ben to Rarity.
“no need, just tell my sister to have fun.” With that rarity hangs up, and Ben goes to answer Applejack.
At Rarity Street
Rarity after hanging up, decided to get work on a dress done, maybe while in here for a while, till whatever this is that’s going on, they could kill some time.
Rarity was glad that her sister will be in safe hands, so she didn't have much to worry about.
But, outside of Rarity House, people where walking on the streets they didn’t get the message yet or have ignored it, But one person who did not look so good, was walking forward, and bumped into someone, and the person glared at him.
“Hey watch where your –“ the person stopped when he got a look at the person who jumped into him, his eyes went wide at seeing his pale skin, and sickle appearance. “ Holy crap! Are you ok!?”
The person didn’t say anything, but starred at the person for a while, his eyes having a weird look to them, the person felt uncomfortable by this, but before he could do anything, the sickly person grabbed onto him, and to the horror of everyone.
Bites into his throat, blood spraying out as the man screamed trying to push the person who was biting into his neck off him, some people in panicked ran or tried to help.
The person was pulled off the other one, but the one who had a hole bitten in his neck, was on the ground gagging on his own blood that was starting to build up in his throat.
All hell broke lose there.
Eventually Ben finished his talk with Applejack, Ben heard like with Rarity that Applejack got a warning to, but not just that he was also informed of some things as well which got the boy confused and also concerned to as well when he heard it.
“Hold on, Hold on? Hold on.” Says Ben right now surprised, blinking a few times. “Did you just tell me a cop, a actual cop bit Big Mac?” Asked Ben.
A cop? Really ? And actually betting someone with the cop drunk or something? Out of all things he heard today that's the last thing he thought he hear today, of all things? Still he was worried for a Big Mac.
“yes a cop actually came out nowhere and try to grab Granny Smith so Big Mac try to help out only for the cop to turn around grab his arm when he tried to pull him off of Granny bite him actually, he’s bleeding badly and Granny is working on it.” Started the Farm girl. “we tried calling a ambulance but there saying there busy! “
“want me to tell Applebloom about this?” asked Ben.
“No, don’t want to have her worry right now Sugercub, right now she should enjoy time with her friends not worry about a warning from a TV or the fact that her big bro got bitten by a crazy cop, Big Mac’s tough don’t worry.” Says Applejack.
Ben thinks there, but shrugged.
“Well if you say so okay.” Replies Ben. “but she will probably find out later you know right?” asked Ben.
A sigh was heard from Applejack line.
“I know.” Says Applejack. “well? Have a nice rest of your day partner.”
“you to.” Says Ben, as Applejack hung up.
Ben settled into his familiar spot by the window, his chain propped on his face elbow rushing on the cool wooden shelf outside the world seem to close with her upsettling energy and he found himself drowned into silent complication of it all.
His gaze wandered across the street where a flicker of red and blue lights caught his eye, a warning had been issued our urgent directive to everyone to stay indoors to lock their doors and to refrain from letting anyone in until further notice the weight of this situation press down on him as he recalled the chilling news that Big Mac had been in by a cop, what on Earth was going on?
Ben tapped his finger rhythmically against the window frame trying to piece together the chaos went around him confusion and concerned bottled for domination in his mind he glanced back on the side realizing that he needed to inform the girls that there stay with him may be extended
Well he knew that his little sister Ricka, would surely be thrilled by this prospect, she does always like hanging around with them, she was in Ricka words the brains of the team, Ben chuckled there yeah those people may need some brains in there group that’s for sure.
Still the boy doesn't know why but something is telling him that something bad might happen….Again, ok? He hasn't tons of weird stuff one of his classmates become a she demon that almost try to take over their minds and Ruled them all? And later three singing being so try to brainwash them all as well and turn them into mindless slaves or something and there's that one time where one of them actually almost destroyed all reality itself.
“ ironically….one out of four of those people ended up being my friends.” Says Ben Admitting Almost amused by that.
Sunset shimmer, Ben has met her during her not so nice period of her life, it was very manipulate in narcissistic individual in school she exhibited greedy and self-serving nature that alienated her from her peers but with her status she didn’t care as long as she was above the others.
She really was ruthless in her ambitions to be on the top really ruthless probably one of the worst people he ever known in his life.
But after turning into, a Demon that probably would fit into a fantasy game and give many people ideas use her demonic form for and later being defeated by that girl Twilight sparkle and the others, she has began to see the error of her ways and actually began to start to try to change.
So after a talk from Applejack, since he was friends with her because of Ricka Friendship with Applebloom, Applejack convinced the tall boy to give Sunset a chance, And he didn’t regret it.
But back to his train of thought’s, could this situation be because of magic or something? Something from that world of Equestria? If that's the case then this situation should be dealt with quickly or something that he hopes At least.
Before he could pounder more on this, his phone rang again, and the boy looks at his phone once again, and who we saw was calling was his brother this time, Ben was curious but answers it.
“Hey Ren.” Says Ben answering him casually. “How are you doing today?”
At Rens House.
Ren having his Galaxy 5 to his ear, looked outside as he spoke to his brother. “not to well.” Says Ren.
Ren, Ricka and Ben’s Older brother, Red skin, Red hair and Red eyes, and right now was just in Boxers and a white sleeveless shirt, like Ben and some others he got the report but right now his street was hectic, screaming was going on outside.
Ren Stood by his window, His heart racing as he gazed into the chaos unfolding outside the scene, devore him resembled a nightmare come to life a group of people surrounded a terrified civilian who was screaming his lungs out and it was attracted more people to him, that began to restrain him.
The civilian attempted to fend off his assailants pushing against them with all his strength which did no good.
But ranson next made his stomach turn as he watch those people who are overwhelming that one person, begin ripping there captured victim apart, bran grew sickened as he watched his horrifying sight they were seeing those people ripped that person apart for whatever reason red wanted were they insane Or something? Did that person do something very heinous or something that got them to rip him apart like that?
He saw one of them even ripped the arm off that screaming person, and as the screams echoed, more people just walked in and joined in with those people were doing!? While some people where running away in panic.
Ren tried to call the cops earlier, only to get that they where dealing with many other problems.
But what Shocked Ren more? Was when he saw one of those people were eating this dismembered arm, taking chunks out of it, much to Rens disgust.
Mutilation? And now cannibalism? Ren honestly never thought he would see something like this, and it got him worried for his Wife and his siblings, he already made sure all the doors where locked and pulled down all the shades down to, as he was seeing this chaos happening outside going out there.
Ren then got away from the window, as he spoke to his brother then.
“Ben? Follow that warning, don’t let anyone fucking in, this is a very serious matter.” Says Ren, seriously to Ben. “Ricka with you right?” asked Ren, making sure that his little sister is with Ben.
Ben eventually replied. “ah yes, her and Her friends.”
Ren was silent for a little while, but continue while leaning on a wall. “Did they come in before or after you heard that warning?” asks Ren.
“Before.”
“and which friends are they?”
“ Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle.”
When ran her this he had a hand on his forehead, let that annoyed sigh at this when he heard this, before taking a minute to speak.
“oh great…” says Ren at this, but he quickly continued. “Ben? Keep those girls quiet, and don’t let anyone else in that house, got it? There’s people eating people right now I don’t know why, there’s massive panick coming about and I’m pretty sure it will come to your street eventually.” Warns Ren, while ignoring a crash that he heard outside.
A car must have crashed, but Ren ignored this to talk to his brother, he needed him to keep Ricka and there friends safe, Ben is responsible but he wanted to be sure.
“Wait people eating people? What!?” asked Ben on his side.
“That’s what I said, wait till I get there if I do, till then don’t let anyone else in got it?” tells ren He knows he’s basically repeating, but he was being very sure.
“Ah? Ok got it….stay safe.” Says Ben on his side.
“you to, and remember your taking care of those little girls, watch them closely and be careful what you do right now.” Says Ren, as he hanged up.
Ren let’s out a deep Breath at this this was going to be a long day, and probably not going to be solved anytime soon.
But, Ren then heard a door opened, he turns to see Cheerilee, all she had around her was a towel, She was taking a shower earlier but after hearing all the hectic noises she was hearing she got out quickly and was drying herself off now.
And was giving Ren a worried look, she was worried she was here and screaming outside along with some other noises, even gunshots out there.
“Ren? What’s going on out there?” asked Cheerilee wanting to look out the window herself, but Ren stops her.
“Dear ….Trust me.” Ren looks to the covered window, as screaming was still heard, and many other sounds. “….it’s right now pure hell out there.” Ssys Ren, not wanting his wife to see the hell going on out there.
Cheerilee, tilts her head at this, as she has the towel thrown to the side, while putting her hands on her hips.
Normally Ren would enjoy looking at his wife’s body when it’s nude, since to him she really is attractive, and he would enjoy feeling her nice purple smooth body and Have some fun with the other, but with the situation going on? Ren was focused on something else.
“Ren ….tell me what’s going on out there in detail, or I’ll check out that window myself.” Says Cheerilee, Wanting her husband to tell her right now.
Cheerilee, Now known as Cheerilee Tracker is a teacher at counterlot High, the Wife of Ren Tracker, Been married to him for about a year, Ren is a good husband to her, and really treats her well, they both genuinely care and love the other.
And Ren was going to do what he can to keep her safe during this situation till it was solved.
And Ren Started to explain what he heard and saw to her.
Back with Ben.
Once Ren hanged up, Ben felt a overwhelming wave of anxiety wash over him his brother was accurate in his mind.
‘cannibals really cannibals!’ says Ben as he Wondered is maybe that why there’s a warning, was there cannibals and a group of arsonists are going around or something?
This Revelation has taken it already stressful situation and turn into something nightmarish and got more worried if there's some close by or something, Ben took a breather he can do this all the windows were locked the door was locked, and if someone did break in he could get his dad's handgun he does know the password to the safe.
He will make sure to keep the girls here safe for his friends and also to keep his own sibling safe as well.
He pays around the house his footsteps echoing softly against the wooden floor while getting to where he put his shoes, putting them on.
Suddenly a loud knock jolted him from his thoughts it was frantic and urgent his heart raised as he moved towards the door straining to hear the muffled voice that accompanied. “hello hello is anyone in there! please let me in I need help! There following me! Please!”
The voice was feminine came with desperation it sounded familiar to Ben, making him raise a eyebrow was it really? Could it actually be?
He approached the people and peered through it, as you looked out he was starting to see a vibrant figure standing on his porch it was none other than, then…. Twilight sparkle!?
Who continues to knock on the door, Ben saw her desperate face as she looked terrified right now.
“Please is anyone in there please open the door!” says Twilight desperately.
But as Twilight was knocking on the door behind her, two shadowy figured lurked, there movements slow and deliberate ass if savoring the moment, and a low gutteral growl rumbles from there throats, Twilight looked at them, and looked really panicked and more scared now.
Ben was conflicted, should be let twilight in? Or no? He was told by the news and his brother not to let anyone in.
