"They shall be my finest warriors, these men who give of themselves to me. Like clay I shall mold them and in the furnace of war forge them. They shall be of iron will and steel sinew. In great armor I shall clad them and with the mightiest weapons they will be armed. They will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight them. They shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe can best them in battle. They are my bulwark against the Terror. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are my Space Marines and they shall know no fear."
— The Emperor of Mankind
The space marines have kept the human race safe from Xenomorphs and it self for Millennia on end. Created for the soul purpose of Defense and destruction of enemy forces, nothing stands in their way. Whatever is foolish enough to stand between a space marine and its mission will soon know of its folly. The Emperor of Mankind created a Space Marine a step above your Standard Space Marine, the Ultramarine.
A single Ultramarine is said to be worth ten million foes, and that they hold true. Wielding the most powerful of weapons and armor with an unyielding will, they know not what fear is. Created from the best of all gene-seed the Emperor of Mankind himself. A handful of Ultramarine’s has been known to change the flow of a losing battle in their favor.
The only flaw present within a space marine is many felt no compassion or emotion, causing them to be easily corrupted by the chaos and warp energies. Calling civilians and the like “mortals” as they thought themselves gods.
***************************
“Captain Augustus! Report to Captain Commander Titus immediately, you are to be sent out with your battalion”
“Thank you guardsman. You may return to your duties” Augustus begins to run down the hallway in the direction of Captain Commander Titus
He passes through the bunkers and shouts at his two Lieutenants Brutus and Festus “ Oy! Ultramarine’s Up front and center! Captain Commander Titus has a job for us newbie Ultras it seems.”
A large man standing over 9 feet tall with a scar atop his head causing a major bald spot steps up and salutes Augustus. “So we finally get to see some action, huh? Think its going to be Orks? Id hate to fight those Traitorous Chaos marines on my 1st day as an Ultramarine.”
“I have no idea Brutus, I just received the summons from a guardsman who just ran up to me.”
A second man of the same height as Augustus himself, who is also 8' 5", walks up and salutes Augustus with a grin on his face “Whats the matter Brutus? You afraid of some wimpy chaos?”
“You know as well as I do that I fear nothing the same as you. I would just prefer to kill easy targets in mass on my first mission as an Ultramarine is all.” Brutus grins at Festus
“Woulda figured you would be the one wanting to do all the easy stuff.” Scoffed Festus
“Gentleman, if you would be so kind as to follow me we need to get to Captain Commander Titus and see what he wants of us.” Augustus spins around and begins to walk out of the barracks, Brutus and Festus follow suit still arguing over what they get to kill for their 1st mission.
As they walk along the path the number of Statues and symbols dedicated to their Machine god, Deus Mechanicus, also known as Omnissiah for short, begin to increase in number. They reach the large double door at the end of the iron hallway and quickly open it.
“Augustus Reporting for duty Captain Commander Titus!”
“Ah yes, it is good to see you. Time is short as we have found a new planet in a nearby Solar system that greatly resembles our mother world earth. With the exception that it would seem the current life on the planet is still within Dark ages in terms of Technological advancement.”
“What do you mean Dark ages Captain Commander?
“Please just call me Titus, Augustus, You’ve known me long enough to drop the honorifics. Anyway like I was saying, The planets current Populace is in the Dark ages when it comes to technology, we have had these for well over 10,000 years, they are but a baby race compared to us. As such, they are easy targets for the Orks.”
“Ork’s sir? How do we know the Orks are heading to the new planet?”
“Simple, one of their tribes reached critical mass and started heading out into space, we’ve intercepted some of their communication lines and they said something about a new planet ripe for the taking, full of resources and food. We traced their ships heading to a planet 12 Solar system's away.”
“What would you have us do Titus?”
“First I would like you to get with one of our Senior Tech marines and Apothecaries, Also head down to the Armory and take anything you want...Except for some of the rarer items such as the Iron Halos and Dreadnaughts. You shouldn’t need them for what I have planned right now.”
“What do you mean sir? What are you going to have us do exactly?”
“You and your team are heading down to the planet's surface and make contact with the Planets top species, see if you can communicate with them, It seems from our long range scans they are intelligent and as such Intelligent beings deserve a chance to defend themselves against the Ork masses.”
“Intelligent sir? You said they are still within the dark ages of Technology. How intelligent could they be?”
“We don’t know for certain, our long range scanners don’t tell such details, other than the planet is full of cities, small towns and life, and where the Ork ship will probably land. Now if you don’t have any further questions I suggest you Arm yourselves and find an Apothecary and Techmarine willing to assist you.”
“Just one sir, What if they are also hostile?”
“Then we will take the Planet in the name of our Emperor and the Machine God.”
Augustus and his two Leutenits salute and head out the door to the armory.
Brutus grumbles to himself “hopefully we won't have to fight 2 war fronts, things will become difficult.”
“Don’t worry Brutus we are Ultramarine’s now, nothing can stand up to us.” Festus says proudly as they travel through Iron clad hallways.
“Hey Augustus, Titus said we could get anything right?”
“That he did, why?”
“You think they’ll let me have one of the thunder hammers?” Brutus says with a wide grin on his face
“Ha ha, they probably will, I doubt they would hold back on letting an Ultramarine arm himself while under Titus’s command.”
“Good good, sounds like we will get to take our favored weapon types with us.” Festus says with a wide grin on his face.
********************************
They arrived to the Armory after a short walk. They enter into a huge warehouse several hundred stories high with a Titan war machine in the distance. Sounds of welding and gunfire can be heard in the distance.
“It never ceases to amaze me on how big this fucking place is” Brutus states as he looks around
“You've been a space marine for how long now?” Festus looks over to him with a puzzled look
“ About a year longer than you, so 30 I suppose.”
They walk over to the quartermasters standing at a desk with a huge line up of weapons and armor assortments behind them.
“My name is Captain Augustus and I am looking to suit up and equip myself and my men for a mission set by Captain Commander Titus.”
“Ah yes we’ve been expecting you guys, Captain Commander Titus called telling us to let you have what you want, besides the rarest of things like the Iron Halo. So mostly everything here is free game. Also I took the Liberty of calling an Apothecary and Techmarine over for you guys. Sense he said this needed to be done ASAP and the donning rituals take forever.”
“Thank you guardsman, now let us Suit up”
“Oh by the way, I think you guys will like the new armor set up, It has all the standard equipment but with a slight twist.”
“What do you mean?”
“You ever hear of a Power Armor healing you because you Executed an enemy?” the quartermasters grinned
“What? That sounds like something extremely useful in the heat of battle. How does it work exactly?”
“Simple really, When you execute the Enemy, the amount of blood that spills upon your armor is absorbed by nanobots and converted into a type of healing energy, revitalizing your body and even restoring the armor and shield levels. Its rather instantaneous as well.”
“Excellent, that should make any long lasting battles a breeze.”
“Ha-ha! That's the spirit, the only drawback is that it has to be done with a Melee weapon. Power type or hell, even your fist or foot will work. This armor type is still pretty new but Titus figured it would be invaluable during this mission for you, as we won't be able to back you up for several weeks.”
“Weeks? What do you mean weeks?”
“Titus didn’t tell you? Oh boy, well he's going to send you guys on our fastest ship to reach the planet before the Orks do in hopes of you guys making peace with the Local populace and maybe get some counter measures ready to prevent the Orks from getting a deep foothold on the planet.”
“You really should have asked him more questions Augustus, hehe” Festus says as he snickers a bit.
At that moment the door opened up and in walked 2 more, a man about 8'4" and a woman...A well built woman who was roughly 8 feet tall.
“Ah welcome Vita and Octavius, Say hello to Augustus, Brutus and Festus. They will be part of your little group to the new planet.”
“A woman? What's a woman doing here?” Festus laughs to himself for a bit only to be rushed in the blink of an eye by said woman, and shoulder rammed into the ground.
“Hi my names Vita and I’ll be your Apothecary for a while. So if you planned on living long I suggest you shut the fuck up about me being a woman.” Vita spits on Festus as he tries to get back up.
*Grunt* “Noted Ms. Vita” Festus rubs the spit off his shirt “ sorry about that , in the 28 years I’ve been a Space marine I’ve never seen a woman as a space marine before”
“Well now you have you sexist sack of shit.”
“Please can we stop this nonsense? We have a mission to uphold and prepare for.” Augustus says as he steps between the two fighting “My names Captain Augustus and I apologize for my 3rd in command for offending you.”
“Hm, alright Names Vita, I'm sure you heard already, His names Octavius one of the best Techmarines we’ve got. He doesn’t talk much though, says something about talking to the flesh will make it harder to commune with the machine spirit.”
“ I can understand, Appeasing the machine spirit so that it doesn’t turn on us in the heat of battle is of utmost importance.”
“If yall are done introducing yourselves to each other, let's get you suited up I'm sure you can talk to each other plenty when you get all your armor and weapons on.” The quartermasters pressed several buttons on the terminal in front of them causing the machines behind to start up and spin incredibly fast until they came to a sudden stop, showing a line of different Power Armors.
************************************************
After three hours passed the team had successfully Donned their Power armor suits fitted with the new Upgrade called Executioners Boon.
Augustus was wearing the Captains armor adorned with the Machine Gods symbols and his Ultramarine status. Clad in blue and even wearing the helmet, he had been set up with a Plasma pistol and the Standard Bolter, for his secondary weapons he took the Vengeance Launcher and a Stalker Pattern Bolter. For his Up close and personal weapon he chose the Power Axe, for its balance of speed and power.
Brutus had a blue suit with the Ultramarine symbols on his shoulders, plasma Pistol and Adamantine Bolter with Armor piercing rounds. He had no secondary weapons as he chose to roll with the infamous Thunder Hammer. Slow but extremely powerful, Each hit would send shock waves of destruction and disruption to all nearby enemies. One drawback was that he would be limited to a Bolter and Pistol. But Brutus didn’t mind, he always liked being up close and Personal with his foes.
Festus on the other hand took the standard Chain sword Favoring speedy slashes with its Motorized monomolecular-edged teeth, making it capable of slicing through armor, flesh and bone alike. For his primary he took the plasma pistol and standard Bolter. Festus also took a Jump pack. Favoring it simply because it would allow him to jump around the battlefield effortlessly and Dive bomb into groups of enemies.
Vita Being the resident Apothicary was equipped with a White Power armor with a Diagnostor helmet, in-place of the standard one with its simple auto sense features. Capable of diagnosing what the problem is and if they are combat ready at a moments notice. Equipped with a Chainsword and bolt pistol as standard weapons, she Also received the Tool of the apothecaries Trade, a Narthecium. A tool able to perform 1st aid and other advanced medical procedure should the need arise without the need to remove the power armor. And of course a Reductor, a tool used to retrieve and store the Gene-seed from Fallen comrades in order to keep it from falling into the perverse hands of the enemy.
Octavius Donned a completely red suit besides the symbols showing his rank and company. He was wearing the Artificer Power armor that is modified to accommodate his cybernetic enhancements. On his back he had 3 Servo arms, One coming straight up behind him and the other 2 coming out on either side making it look like he had four arms. Equipped with the standard Bolter and the Techmarines trademark Omnissian Power axe. With its long staff like body and the Machine Gods Symbol upon its face with the skull's eyes glowing, the weapon leaves little doubt that even with it covered in insignias and religious symbols, it’s a deadly weapon. As a side note it also functions as a Combi-tool, or multi-tool.
“It seems we finally got you Suited up, head on over to the loading dock. They should have your transport ready by now.”
“Thank you Quatermasters, we shall head out immediately.” Augustus turns around and begins to sprint down the hallway, soon followed by Brutus, Festus, Vita, and Octavius.
After sprinting down several corridors they reach the large iron doors leading to the loading dock. The door opens and they enter into a huge hanger filled with warships and spaceships. They walk over to the counter by the entrance to ask for directions.
“I am Captain Augustus, I’m on orders from Captain Commander Titus to reach a new planet, do you know where our ship is located?
“Ah yes, we have a special made Escort class ship for you guys, It was upgraded to increase its traveling speed so it shouldn’t take more than a few days to reach your destination. Also when you land it you have the option to transform it into a small base enabling you to contact us and even order more supplies if a Battleship is within 5 Solar systems.”
“Sounds like we are ready to Depart then. Any last requests before we begin our mission Ultramarines?”
“I got one, How long does the ship take to transform itself? And can it revert back into a space ship?” Festus questions
“Ah, that's the thing, once you transform it, it can't revert back into a space ship as it will burrow its self partway underground and transform its fuel cells into power generators. The whole process takes about 2 days to complete.”
“So we could Potentially strand ourselves on a planet with Orks and who know what else hostile forces?” Brutus grins at the idea “Sounds like Titus was right in giving us these suits with the Executioners Boon upgrade.”
“That he was, Let us head out”
Augustus and his battalion with its two new additions head onto the customized Escort ship. Their escort ship is of the smaller Varity in which its only 750 meters long but it was customized to be completely operable with only 5 people. The ship was a deep blue color with the Ultramarine’s Symbol on all sides of the ship clearly visible for all to see.
“All systems check Captain Augustus, were ready for take off as soon as you give the signal.”
“On my mark, 3...2...1...LAUNCH!”
The ship rockets off into the air at an alarming speed. After just a few seconds they break the atmosphere and are in space. The G-force generated dies down as they no longer feel gravity.
“Well this thing is certainly fast, instead of a few minutes to reach space it only took a few seconds.” Festus laughs “Guess I shouldn’t of started on max gear huh?”
“You idiot, I bet you left one hell of a mess back in the hanger taking off like that.” Brutus looks to Fetus with a scowl
“We shall deal the percussions at a later date, for now we must set the course to the new planet, the Coordinates should be in place, Set it to auto pilot so we can prepare for the worst.”
“Aye aye Captain!” Festus chuckles to himself as he set the ship on auto pilot and at full speed. “Alright the ship will slow to a stop when we reach the planets Orbit Captain Augustus”
“Good, Now Octavious, you think you can learn all you can about the new system they implemented in our suits? And hopefully be able to recreate it”
Octavious nods his head using his left servo-arm to salute.
“I’m going to assume you agree with me, If this new planet has humanoid creatures on it, I’m sure we can come to some sort of agreement. Hopefully they will be civil even if they are still in the dark ages of technological advancements. It shouldn’t be too hard getting some new Initiates for us”
“You're planning to indocterne the locals captain?”
“Yes, why not? It's not unheard of in the space marine history to have the locals of planets join our ranks.”
“That may be true Captain, but normally the local of planets are human, or hostile Xenomorphs.”
“Then maybe it is time for us to begin a new chapter in the space marine history Brutus.”
“Hmm, but then we would have to develop new armor if they aren't humanoid Captain, that would pose a problem.”
“Hmm, you could be right, Octavius, do you think you could create new power armors? You’re supposed to be the best right?” Augustus looks over to him with his head tilted to the side.
A few second pass then a screen appears inside everyone’s helmet with the words “Who do you think I am? I could reverse Engineer new Power Armor in a few days if I have the materials. Do Not Insult my ability and power to commune with the machine spirit again boy!!!”
“It would seem I hit a soft spot, Sorry Octavious. And what do you mean boy?”
“Octavius is over 120 years old Augustus, he has many cyborg implants and even Bio-mechanical organs and muscles.” Vita beams while patting Octavius on the back.
“Well, you certainly do qualify as a Senior then, my apologies. Now Id like for you to begin your research while we hurdle through space toward our destination. As for you Vita, well you’re a medic, I doubt you would be able to alter your Narthecium before we even have a chance to meet the new life.”
“That is true captain, I can still perform basic first aid, but anything beyond that such as skin grafts and organ repair will be beyond my ability unless it's one of you guys.”
“Excellent, Now let us prepare for the long journey ahead.”
Everyone unstrapped and wandered off to their respective quarters to prepare for the upcoming journey. Performing ritual rites to appease the machine spirits of their weapons and armor, or just keeping basic maintenance of the ship and their equipment. The only one who seemed really busy during the trip was Octavius.
**********************
After four days of traveling they reached the outskirts of the planet. They all gathered around the command deck in anticipation of the up and coming potential battle.
“Festus, can you tell where the Ork drop pod is supposed to land?”
“Just a second Augustus... Let...me...see...There! It looks like it's going to land in an open space between a large forest and a small town. Also I’m picking up numerous life signs in the forest and the town itself. The projected time until the Orks arrive is about one week from today.”
“Good, that gives us plenty of time to meet with the Local populace, any idea if they’re humanoid?”
“Mmm, the scanners they gave us on this ship aren't all that advanced, I’m guessing they placed alota the tech in the engines and its transforming ability.”
“Oh well it doesn’t matter, land us near the town somewhere between it and the forest so we can set up a defense line.”
“Yes Captain.”
The Ship began its descent in the atmosphere and began to burn up on its descent to the surface. Useing its overpowered engines it quickly slowed down. With some easy maneuvering the ship landed in an open field near the town with a large gap between it and the forest.
“Captain, I can already see a weakness in the defense line. This forest is huge and if the Orks retreat into it we will have one hell of a time digging them out. Also the town seems to come dangerously close to the forest in certain areas.”
“Noted Brutas, we will just have to set up sentry turrets in specific locations to defend for us. Now let us go see what the local populace in the town looks like, they must be humanoid by the structures they created.”
***************
*Perspective of the Town*
A loud thundering noise is heard from overhead and when looking up it would appear as if a giant ball of fire is coming down from the sky.
“EVERYPONY RUUUUNN!!!!!!! CELESTIA IS RAINING DOWN BALLS OF FIERY DEATH AT US!”
Panic Broke loose within the town as all the ponies ran in every direction. A purple unicorn suddenly runs out of a large house shaped like a tree shouting.
“CELESTIA WOULD NEVER TRY TO KILL US! LOOK! ITS SLOWING DOWN EVERYPONY!”
All the ponies stopped their scramble to look up at the huge object in the sky that looked like a Metal ship, only it was absurdly huge, at least big enough to smash 1/5 of the town if it decided to land on it.
“What is that huge thing?!”
“ITS ALIENS!!!”
“The Horror! THE HORROR!”
The Panic began once again among the populace. The unicorn’s horn began to glow then in a bright flash disappeared.
**************
*back to Space Marines*
After landing their ship they departed from the ship only to look around them. The wind blew and the grass and trees gently swayed. From their viewpoint, Everything seemed peaceful, an open meadow and small homes with gardens and fences around them.
“You think we should wait and see if some of the local populace comes to greet us after our entrance?” Festus grins over at Augustus.
“That may be best, I’m sure they must be scared out of their minds by now seeing our ship land so close. What’s the planets atmosphere show?”
“Well its breathable, and the oxygen content is rather high, probably because they don’t even have industry so they have no Co2 Emissions. Talk about a virgin planet ehh?” Festus laughs at the comment joined by Brutus.
“Captain, I'm getting life signals coming our direction, 6 to be exact heading our way slowly, except...”
“What is it Vita?”
“My scanner shows them of the Equine variety, it's probably just some wild animals that came back to graze in the meadow we landed in.”
“Hmm, Noted Vita, well let us set up some kind of forward base here, we don’t know if this will be the ideal spot to set up our base camp yet, but still lets move some equipment out with ammo. Might as well make ourselves at home ehh?” Augustus laughs to himself for a moment.
***************************************
*perspective of the 6 ponies*
“I dunno about this Twi, if this is really aliens, do we wanna go and greet them?”
“Yes, this our first contact with aliens like...Ever! Isn’t it just exciting?!”
“I dunno sugercube what if they turn out to be hostile? We could be in trouble”
“Oh don’t worry Applejack, I’m sure with the 6 of us we could handle them if they get dangerous, and besides we have Fluttershy with us, maybe she would be able to communicate with them.”
“Um, my talent only works with animals Twilight, I don’t think I could talk to an alien.”
“Well lets just hope for the best then. Besides did you see their ship? The symbol on the side looked like a Horse shoe! What if they happen to be some advanced pony race from another planet?!”
“Darling, im sure Princess Celestia would of known about Space ponies.”
“Hmm maybe your right...” sigh “still Aliens in Equestria who would have thought.”
“As long as they aren't here to wreck havoc we won't have any problems, besides I bet that ship couldn’t keep up with me anyway, its way too big and clunky looking.”
“I don’t think the aliens are here to cause problems guys, I’m sure they’re just a bunch of nice guys that will help with some huge alien threat coming our way. At lest that's what my twitchy tail says” the pink pony begins to giggle uncontrollable.
“That sounds oddly specific for a Pinky's tail twitch.”
The ponies slowly walk around the massive ship until they arrive at a spot with a ramp leading up into the ship with piles of boxes laying around. They look up and down at the many metal boxes all with the horse shoe symbol on them. Then they hear large thumping and clunking coming from inside the ship.
*KLUNK KLUNK KLINK*
The ponies witness a huge blue metal Biped with the Horseshoe symbols on its shoulders and a Large hammer on its back. It looks over the group of ponies who just stare at it with eyes wide and mouths open. It places the boxes down inside the ship and then slowly removes its helmet while performing some of ritual with its hands after each clip is undone.
All of a sudden the strange biped shouts back into the ship “Hey guys! Those animals are here! And the funny thing is. They’re all bright colors and ones even wearing a cowboy hat.”
***********
*perspective of Space marines*
Brutus removes his helmet and shouts to the others “Hey guys! Those animals are here! And the funny thing is. They’re all bright colors and ones even wearing a cowboy hat.”
“What in blazes are you talking about Brutus? How can a pony wear a hat? Maybe it's someone’s pet.” Festus looks over at Brutus with a strange look. Only to drop his jaw as he looked outside to see the strange looking ponies.
“By Jove, they really are all strange colors...think I could get close enough to pet one?”
“Ha-ha, I doubt it”
“Bet yea 30$ they’ll be so scared of us they won't run they’re just a bunch of dumb animals anyway.”
Festus slowly walks over to the ponies, only to see them slowly back away “aw come on now little ponies I ant going to hurt you...” He begins to approach a yellow one with bright pink hair and wings on its back cowering in sight of him. As Festus reaches out his hand to touch the little pony a Cyan flash appears in front of him between the yellow pony and himself.
“Don’t you dare touch Fluttershy you stupid alien!” The cyan winged pony with a rainbow mane snorts at him digging her front hoof into the ground.
Festus and Brutus both drop their mouths open in shock “You can talk?! And we can Understand you?!”
“Yes we can talk and we heard what you said about us. We aren't just some stupid animals that you think we are, I myself am a lady of refinement.”
“Hey Brutus, go get the rest of the guys, they won't believe this. Ha-ha!”
Brutus runs off into the depths of the ship to go get Augustus, Vita and Octavius.
“Well, I suppose introductions and an apology is in order then, allow me to remove my helmet.”
Festus begins to remove his helmet in the same fashion the Brutus did.
“Why do ya have ta remove your helmet so funny like?” asked the orange pony.
“Funny? Ah you must be speaking of the rituals. The helmet must be removed in this fashion to keep the machine spirit appeased and keep it from becoming angry at me. An angry machine spirit in the heat of battle can be an Ultramarine’s worst enemy.” Festus finishes removing his helmet and then places it on top of a nearby crate. “Now as I was saying before, I apologize for calling you stupid animals, My name is Festus and I am 3rd in command under Captain Augustus and Sargent Brutus.”
“Hmm, My names Rainbow Dash, this is Fluttershy, she's shy around new ponies and...Aliens.”
“My name is Twilight Sparkle and the orange pony with the cowboy hat is Applejack.”
“And my name is Rarity darling, and this pink ball of energy next to me is Pinkie Pie.”
“Ball of energy? Why would you...” Festus is interrupted as the pink pony rushes up to him in a blinding speed.
“See?! I told you guys they would be nice Aliens! I mean why land their big ship next to town if they could of just blew us up from the sky or just landed in the town and crushing a bunch of houses right?!” Pinkie Pie was bouncing up and down in place near Festus.
Festus raises and eyebrow at the pink pony “I think Im gonna enjoy your company Pinkie pie.”
At that moment Brutus returns followed by 3 others, Only Augustus and Brutus were without helmets.
“What is this nonsense of talking Ponies Brutus spoke of Festus?” Augustus looks over to the colorful ponies in question
“It's not nonsense that we can talk. What kind of Intelligent life wouldn’t be able to talk?” questions the purple unicorn.
Augustus has a shocked look upon his face as the purple pony spoke to him.
“So it's true, the ponies can talk. And pray tell, Are you the Dominate species on this planet?” Augustus raises an eyebrow at the ponies.
Twilight raises an eyebrow to his question “Dominate? Well in Equestria we are, to the east across the sea are where the Griffins and Dragons live, and to the west its dominated by Zebras.”
“So your world is controlled by 4 different creatures then?”
“Well there’s a lot more creatures but Ponies are common in this area. Why do you ask?”
“We ask because we are here to help the dominate species fight off an incoming Ork invasion of this untouched virgin planet”.
All of the Ponies mouths drop at the word Invasion except a pink ones. “See! I told you guys! They came to help us fight off more Aliens! Hehehe!”
