Ch.1 Coma

"Come on, we have to move!" a soldier in a tore and ripped gliese suit whispered as he waved another person to come to his position. The women slowly got up from behind the overturned red car and walked over in a crouched position. She looked up at an old sign that read" PENTAGON" which barely hung from a few old, rusty nails bolted into the stone. A large crystal tower protruded from the center of the Pentagon. The crystals were black and small splotches were light blue. The tower grew narrow as the top became nothing more than just a tall point.

The doors to the inside were tore off their hinges and were stuck in the walls from the west entrance. The soldier entered through the door way and crunched his boot on some of the glass bits on the floor. His light tan assault rifle that resembled a Scar from the old military surplus was grasped in the soldiers left hand, the butt pushing on his shoulder. He reached for his camouflaged book bag.

"Here." he said as he handed the quite heavy bag to the women,"Just in case I don't make it, make sure this gets to the bottom of the tower. The women struggled with the bag before finally peeling away the top to reveal a large crystal heart. With the bag tightly strapped on the women's right shoulder, they continued.

They came to another door after climbing over a fallen soda machine. The women reached down and picked up a Sierra Mist soda can. She cracked the tab and took a huge gulp.

"Wait." she blurted out as she braced herself onto a nearby wall. She took another gulp and gasped for air. She had not drink or ate in at least a day or two. The sweet liquid ran down her throat which gave her the energy to grasp on what is going on around her.

She looked at herself. She wore a blank, white, sleeveless shirt. A pair of jeans that were patched to the point where you would guess she was wearing rags. She looked at her companion who waited patiently for her to finish.

"Want some?" She asked, still gasping. He waved her off and instead used the butt of his rifle to smash the snack food vending machine which still stood up vertically. He reached in and grabbed a pack of Nacho Cheese Doritos. Pulling apart the bag, he grabbed a hand full and shoveled it in to his mouth. They both stopped when a large creak rumbled though the hallway. The man grabbed the handle of the rifle and fired a few shots into the darkness. A figure came behind the women. She looked right at it, realizing it was a person, she froze. The soldier still focused on the hallway and looked away for just a moment to see the same man. It was obviously a military official with the suit and dog tags giving it away. The only thing was that he starred blankly ahead of him, his eyes glowing a bright green. The soldier aimed his gun. The women backed away behind the man, only to be put into a headlock by another man.The soda machine tripped the soldier and he fell on his back. He aimed for the man and when he started shooting, he realized he was now hitting the ceiling.

The women used her soda to try to stun the goon. No luck. The soldier was now pinned onto the cold ground as a fog rolled in. The fog was black with a pair of eyes, both green with a small circle of red in the middle surrounding a small black slit.

"Sombra!" The man exclaimed,"I will send you to Oblivion! Let me at him!" he screamed as he tried to break loose from his prison. The eyes moved over his face and the man couldn't help but breathe in the fog from excitement. The fog caused him to go numb and extremely relaxed. Their eyes met and the soldier's expression went blank. His mouth draped open, eyes glowing green.

"Of course, Lord Sombra. I will do what ever you wish." The goon lifted up from the man and he took a knee as the fog transformed into a figure. He was a cartoon pony, gray fur and was covered in silver metal armor. His mane was a flowing black. A red robe ran down his back

The women finally got some room escaped from the headlock. She sprinted out the doors, just escaping her male companion's grip. Each step drained her of more and more of her energy. A large white building laid on the horizon of her sights. Making sure the heart was still in her back pack, she started her long walk to the building.

A faint beep rang through the small hospital room. A small boy lay asleep on a thick hospital bed. He tried to open his eyes. They burned when introduced to the sunlight. He tried to wipe his eyes to find tubes with interlocking wires hung from his hand. He used his left hand to rip off the ones on his right hand and proceeded to do it on his other hand. There was a small wooden table next to the bed. A gray lamp and a box of tissues sat, unused and not cared for. The was a plastic clipboard. He look at it and started to read it

"Sammi Shadow" Sammi read. The clipboard also said that Sammi was 17 and that he spent three years in the hospital after a horrific accident. Sammi couldn't remember a thing. He finished on the last line that got cut off in places. The one word he could make out was,"Power".

Sammi climbed out of bed in his hospital clothing.

"Hello?" He called out. The halls were covered in graffiti and paper. One of the texts was,"HELP! SOMBRA IS HERE!"

"Who is Sombra?" Sammi thought as he walked down the hall. He couldn't help but think he knew him. Who ever he was.

An hour passed as Sammi tried to find anything that might help him. He was on the ground floor when his heart stopped. The front door opened. He took cover behind a wall. He peaked to see a women in a sleeveless white shirt open the heavy glass door. She wore rags for pants and a back pack was slumped over her shoulders. He tried to get to the main desk to get a better view but was too focused on the women to notice a metal cart was in front of him. He tripped and made a loud thunk. She spun around and looked at the boy. She slowly approached him, a small knife in her right hand.

He got back up like it was nothing. There was something that gave him high spirits nearby. The girl's back pack lit up. Panicking, she threw it at Sammi. The heart floated and dropped its bag coating. Rainbows shot out at all directions when Sammi stared at it and touched it. The women put her hand on his shoulder and looked him in the eye. He shifted his attention to her.

She smiled,"You're him."

Ch.2 Scavenger

"What are you talking about?" Sammi asked giving a confused face. He bent over to get the book bag.

"We ne- I need you to power this heart under the tower."

"What tower?"

"The crystal one."

"I don't know what you are talking about. What crystal tower?" Sammi latched the top over the heart and gave it back to the girl. The girl looked at him and finally came to a conclusion.

"You were the one who got knocked into a coma from where it began. Aren't you?"

Sammi threw his hands up,"All I know is that my name is Sammi Shadow and I got sent into a coma after some accident!"

The girl stared at him."You don't know what happened while you were out."

Sammi face palmed. Breathing a large sigh he finally gave in.

"Can you please tell me what is going on?"

The girl's face became more relaxed.

"Sure. You might want to take a seat Mr.Shadow." Her light smile turned into a small frown as she looked down at the floor. Sammi took a seat on the cart and looked as if his mind was a small notebook, ready to take notes.

"Shadow, shadow. Why does that sound familiar? Its some other language. I think its..." her gaze lit up as she stared holes into Sammi."SOMBRA IS SPANISH FOR SHADOW!" she shouted.

Sammi looked confused,"Who is Sombra?"

A large rumble quaked the building.

"He must of followed me! We have to go!"

"Hmm, Hmm, Ha ha ha ha!" A deep voice laughed. A black fog started to flood the large room.They ran for the door, only to be stopped by a familiar soldier and a buff guy in dark blue jeans.

"Mark..." The girl stopped and stared. Sammi spotted an elevator and without thinking grabbed the girl's hand and ran for elevator. He quickly smashed the top floor button. The elevator was filled with the black fog immediately and the door slammed shut.

"Don't breath it in!" the girl screamed as they struggled to get out. The unicorn formed on the opposite side of the elevator, its maniacal smile staring down the two humans. All the girl did was raise her fists, ready to take on the world if she had to. Sammi couldn't help but cower in to a fetal position. King Sombra looked at Sammi and laughed.

"I would think you would have the bravery of your old man!" Sombra continued to laugh as it progressively died down. The girl feared this would happen, but it still hurt her to hear that. Sammi stood up and tried to knock open the doors. Be ended up just banging on the doors and the girl grabbed her knife. Sombra started his assault by just walking. He was just arms length when the doors opened. The two both fumbled out like tumble weeds.

The girl was on her feet in seconds, only to see a black fog exiting through a small hole in the elevator. An eerie laugh sounded though the halls.

"We need to move." The girl looked at Sammi. He was just standing up, giving a full moon view to the girl in the process. She nearly puked."Nice pimple you got there." she said. Sammi blushed and giggled

"Did you enjoy the view?" the girl rolled her eyes.

"My name is CJ by the way."

"What does it stand for?"

"I-I never knew. As a matter of fact, I never knew my parents. My dad joined the army in Europe to help against the Chinese."

"What was wrong with the Chinese?"

"They almost took Cordova as a territory in an attempt to take over Spain. Something about them being short on food supplies. But China is huge so I am confused on that. My mom apparently is related to some royalty so she left me in the Americas, ironically this all happened not too long after that."

Sammi looked as CJ to see that she had a tear form in her eye. He walked over and put a hand on her shoulder. CJ looked at Sammi, a small smile crept onto her face. Sammi looked down, pulling images and memories of his past.

"I only knew my mom. She always bragged who my dad was.'Great and powerful man" Sammi air quoted," After that incident in the elevator, I think I know what she meant." Sammi heard a reticent sniffle from CJ. Sammi then remembered something.

"My mom was always a braggart too. She could always do some kind of magic trick to cheer me up sometimes. Her name was Terrie. I think, I never did remember her name."

"Look" CJ started, wiping her nose with her arm."We need to move or our sorrow might become our downfall."

Sammi nodded in agreement and they started off the long hallway.

"We just need to find you a weapon." CJ teased with her knife as she threw it in the air and caught the handle while it landed.

"Be careful!" Sammi warned as he stepped a little to the side,"You don't want to cut yourself!"

"Hmm, i don't want to. I'm being awesome right know." at that, the knife came down and cut a nice slit down CJ's palm. She cried in pain as Sammi got caught off guard.

"I'll find something!" Sammi promised as he ran from room to room in search a bandage or two. Sammi came across a supply room. Inside was a small medical kit. It was a red velvet rectangle package with a white cross on its top.

"Aha!" he cheered as he picked it up. A blood curdling scream sounded as he dropped the pack. He crouched down to pick it up when he saw a paper in the corner of his eye. Showing interest, he picked it up before running out to CJ. She was standing in the door way where Sammi almost rammed. They both looked inside. A dead body lay towards the door. Maggots were all over and flies ran free. There were obviously signs that his spinal cord snapped. It seemed like the person was trying to get away from something. Looking up, Sammi noticed a huge hole in the window. He walked in, holding his arm to his nose to block the horrific smell.

"Sammi!" CJ whispered. He looked over to see CJ using her hand as a glove. He threw the kit to her. She ruffled through it, tearing through the patches and band aids. Sammi refocused on the window. A close inspection showed a small patch of white fur on a large spike of glass. Sammi carefully picked it up sniffed it. It smelled familiar. He walked over to CJ and took a big whiff. They were the same.

Ch.3 Hospital

"Why does this smell like her?" Sammi thought as he eyed CJ carefully.

"What?" CJ asked as she backed away, scarred and confused.

"This hair... never mind." Sammi looked away and walked out. CJ finished patching her wound and ran out to Sammi. She saw he had some documents in his hand. They walked into a stairway and started their travel downstairs.

"What are those papers?" CJ asked.

"I don't know, I'm about to find out." Sammi flipped through the papers until he stopped at one near the back. He started to read to himself. His eyes opened wide.

"What?" CJ demanded. They both stopped on the stairwell.

"These are my birth papers!" Sammi cheered."It says who my birth parents full names were. Ha! My mom's middle name was pony! Terrie Pony Shadow! Wish I could play a trick on my mom. Maybe call her Trixie Pony Shadow! She always loved to play magic tricks with me, it fits perfectly! My dad's name is.. well,partly scratched out. All that's there is... Sombra. He really is my dad." Sammi looked down in disappointment. He took a seat on the step he stood on."Here, I think I saw your paper too." Sammi handed off the papers.

In the lower levels of the steps a clapping of hooves on concrete was heard. CJ grabbed for her knife but it was absent from its leather holster. Dropping the papers, she ran back into the hallway. She found the blood stained knife lying against the floor. The sound of clanking became louder until it stopped nearby. CJ wiped her kife on her shirt and hurried back to the entrance to the stairwell.

"Sammi?" CJ called out. She peaked in. She saw Sammi, he was still sitting, his head looking down. A few feet away stood a familiar figure. King Sombra looked at his son. For the first time, he had a saddened face.

'What is he planning on doing?' CJ thought.

"Why, Dad?" Sammi asked.

"What do you mean?" a satanic voice replied.

"Why didn't you ever tell me?"

"I just did. In the metal shaft."

"I mean as a child. You never ever helped me. All you did was leave me with mom."

"You mean that boaster?" Sombra had a disgusted face."Trixie wanted to know what royalty was like 'inside' of her and so I humored her. Seventeen years later and here we are."

Sammi looked like a cherry, obviously holding back tears to the best of his ability."Why weren't you ever there for me?"

"I was making a plan. The outcome is a new republic under my rule out of this depressing world. Celestia be damned."

"You couldn't have spared some time for me?" Sammi couldn't stop one tear from falling. CJ couldn't understand what was going on. She just stayed up against the door, eavesdropping.

"You don't understand, I did this all for a new order. Who needs that Crystal Empire? If they hadn't resisted, I could ha-" Sombra was interrupted by a sudden movement. Sammi had wrapped his arms around Sombra in a huge bear hug.

"I LOVE YOU, DAD!" Sombra was dumbfounded by the movement, but eventually wrapped his hooves around Sammi. Sammi let all the stress and tears flow out. A heavy sobbing broke through the silence. Even Sombra let a small tear loose.

"I've missed you son." Minutes went by. Eventually they stopped, Sombra looked at his son," It's time to go home. But first..." King Sombra's horn glowed with red aura and CJ started to float from behind the wall.

"Hey! Put me down!" She yelled. Sammi snapped back to reality.

"Wait, Dad, what are you doing!? Put her down!"

"Why?"

"She's my friend!"

"You're friends with Shinning Armor's kid?"

"Who is that?"

"He's the one that helped stop the Changeling's invasion of Canterlot. Besides, he threw his wife to save that blasted crystal heart." Hearing this scared CJ as she remembered the pack on her back. She frantically searched the empty bag on her back for the crystal. She looked down to see Sombra staring at her, smiling an evil smirk.

"Looking for this?" He mouthed, not trying to arouse suspicion in his son. She tried to shout to Sammi but was cut off by Sombra teleporting him, his son, and the heart by summoning a large cloud of black mist. As it dissipated, nothing was left. The aura around CJ disappeared and she fell onto the steps. She got up onto her feet and sprinted over to where they last were.

"Sammi..." CJ started," I miss you already."

````````````````````````````````````````````````````

"Dad, where are we?" Sammi asked, still a little woozy from the teleportaton.

"The crystal tower."

"I remember CJ saying somethi-"

"CJ? Ha! You mean Cadence Junior?" Sombra laughed.

"She said that I had the power to light the heart or something."

Sombra paled.

"R-really? It's you?" Sombra was shaky, storing the heart in a secret compartment in the crystal floor.

"I thought you would've known."

"I thought that if I had passed anything onto you, it would be my evil. Not my crystal pony parts." Sombra looked at his son. Let's not bring up the heart for a while."I want you to meet someone."

"Who?"

"Uncle DIscord." At that moment a dragoneques appeared in the middle of the throne room.

"Hey little one!" He cheered.

`````````````````````````````````````````````````````

CJ had continued down the hallway and out the hospital. She was determined to find Sammi. He was one of the only friends she had since the soldier. Even before the revolution, she was missed by almost nobody. Nobody except her mom's aunt. She always gave her that good feeling. She hasn't seen her since right before this revolution. CJ knew where she was going for shelter and answers. She was going to her Aunt TIa's.

She looked for a vantage point which was a few feet a way. The hospital sat on a large hill. She walked over and used her hand to sheild the sun from her eyes. She couldn't see anything. In the parking lot was a lone ambulance. She walked over and opened the damaged door. She climbed in and opened the compartment below. There were tons of wires before her. Being taken back, she hit her head on the steering wheel, causing a pair of keys to fall from the visor.

"Let's get this party on the road!" She cried with happiness as the engine roared to life.

Ch.4 CJ

The road to CJ's mom's Aunt's was bumpy. The last time the roads were even touched was atleast a year and a half ago. Even then, the road to Tia's place was barely used, not to mention she lived at the end of a long dirt road. Her house was deep in the woods and her house was a snow white. The roof a midnight blue. The flags extending out from both sides of her front door. One had a large cartoon sun painted and a cartoon crescent moon on the other. Her door in the middle of the front of her house.

CJ parked the ambulance in her empty garage that dug into the ground a few feet. She got out and lightly closed the door, worrying her aunt might be busy. She checked a large clock sitting on the wall of the garage to confirm the theory. The analog clock read 7:36 guessing it was AM, CJ walked up to the front door. She was just about to knock when she heard voices inside. She put her ear up a few inches from the door and listened.

"Look Celestia, you kicked me and my army out of Canterlot and know you expect me to help you?" a weird voice that sounded like two overlapping lady voices out of sync.

"Yes, we need to bring down King Sombra at all costs. Your army should even the odds." CJ could recognize the voice. It was her aunt Tia.

"Atleast you didn't get blasted by the Elements of Harmony." A different voice explained,"I'll help Celestia, but Chrysalis might not want to unless there is a prize at the end."

"Damn right!" the overlapping voice lady exclaimed.

"Fine, I'll allow permission for you to journey through Canterlot once a month." Aunt Tia said.

"Hmph, make it twice and I'll do it."

"Hmm, Fine."

"Then we have a deal."

"Yes. So Nightmare Moon with me and Chrysalis with her army plus the remaining human resistance are going against Discord, King Sombra and his minions, plus all the mind controlled humans."

CJ's head accidently hit the wall when she failed to hold up her observing body. Everyone inside stopped and scrambled. The door opened. A white caucasian women with rainbow hair answered the door, a polite smile on her face. She saw who was at the door and nearly broke into tears.

"You survived!" She cried, giving CJ a large hug."I feared the worst when the tower didn't... that doesn't matter, you're okay!" CJ felt a warm tear on her shoulder.

"He took it, aunt Tia. He has the heart."

'Aunt' Tia's eyes dilated and mixed with her glad expression, she looked back at the two other ladies in the room. One had a green shirt on, long black jeans. She was African American and had blue hair. Erie green eyes stared back at CJ. The other women, slightly midnight blue skin but mostly black. Her hair was midnight blue, almost looking as if it gave off a slight glittering aura. She wore black armor, probably just steel or copper painted over. She wore armor leggings, matching the chest piece. She had a deep blue pair of eyes seeing through CJ.

Tia's expression made the other two almost pale in fear. A small boy, light green T-shirt and ripped black jeans with black hair light bluish eyes he had vampire-looking teeth, walked in holding multiple documents in his left hand. A small ghetto shank knife in his right hand.

"I have the documents." He said in a screechy dark voice.

CJ looked at Tia,"What is going on here?" CJ questioned.Aunt Tia looked back at CJ.

"Look, there are somethings you need to know. First off, your dad was in the army. You probably already knew that. What you don't know is that he was a pony, his name being Shinning Armor. He lived in a place called Equestria. You probably heard 'Europe'. You maybe heard the Chinese but in fact they were changelings." The blue haired lady escaped a fake cough from her lips.

CJ was dumbstruck, still taking in the information.

"What in the Holy Hell are changelings?" CJ asked, inviting herself in.

"We are creatures from our old planet that feed off of positive emotions." The women with blue hair added. The young boy walked up to CJ, just under an inch from her height.

"We can also shift into any living creature too!" the boy paraded. CJ remembered how her younger brother used to go on the internet and how almost ever joke he said was from some website called Reddit.

"Cool story, bro." CJ chuckled,"Inside joke."

CJ then wondered something," Why are you guys here and not on Eur- I mean Equestria?"

"We're here for King Sombra." The Armored women responded as she rose from her seat and walked into a different room.

"Is it just you guys?" CJ wondered, taking a seat on a brown, leather, 3-seater couch near the door.

"No, they're are others here." The armored lady answered.

Aunt Tia walked over and sat next to CJ, putting a hand on her back.

"There is always someone I trust with me in these times. My sister is back home, taking care of Equestria."

"Hmph." The armored lady scoffed.

The blue haired lady looked at her, a grin forming,"Are you mad that you are only a corrupt shell of your former self?"

The armored lady looked away, a little angrier.

"I have with me a vast majority of poni-"Tia was interrupted.

"You have only four ponies." The armored lady corrected.

"They are my best field medic, soldier, recon, and leader. Not including me as the leader, she is just here to take control until things go back to normal after Sombra is defeated."

The back door opened and walked in two large ponies. One was white, a purple shield on his flank and a horn. Different shades of blue stained his hair. He wore what looked like an old red strapped uniform. Like the British back in the 1700s. The other was a mare, pink in color with a large, thick, golden necklace. She had both wings and a horn A golden tiara sat on her hair of multiple warm colors and one streak of white. They both stared at CJ and then at 'Aunt' Tia.

A large tear formed on each of the pink mare's eyes. The white stallion stared on, almost at tears himself.

"CJ!" They yelled in unison as they galloped at her. Giving, possibly, the most tight bear hug ever made. CJ didn't have time to flinch as she was cascaded by two large ponies. The air flowed from her body. They both got off of her as she tried to stand up. CJ was only maybe six feet and eight inches, almost an entire foot taller than shinning. She went down on a knee.

"Mom? Dad?" CJ was almost at tears. Everyone in the room had some kind water works going.

"I've been apart from my baby too long" Cadence cried as she wrapped her hooves around CJ. The Shinning Armor sat down next to her.

"We heard what happened to your brother and we thought you went down with him."

CJ looked at him," How do you know he was caught by Sombra?"

"Recon runs through there all the time. He saw what happened to him and he left he was spotted."

"Why am I human and you guys pony?"

"Well, you were born here on Earth, your mom was in human form and if you don't change into a form in the first minute of life, your default is what your parents are. After that, changing form is artificial and you will eventually change back. We were originally pony, you were human, or something like that. I'm just trying to remember from the top of my head"

"What happened to you?" Cadence asked as she tried to clean the bruises from her daughter's body.

"Long story." She started
