It was just an ordinary day in the wonderful map of ctf_well. All the ponies were gleefully killing each other again and again. Shun was burning all the things, Pak was healing all the things, Lariette was shooting all the things, and Nova was exploding all the things. Now Nova was just like any other Mare in these wonderful maps. She would go around, blast ponies to bits with her liberty launcher, and continue to do so until she herself was killed and then repeat. She had a nice stallion in her life, Lightning Flash, who would help her in her escapades. Yet something was empty.
So there Nova was, blasting around. "Let's see who's still here...," Nova thought to herself. The map was just changed to half an hour of deathmatch so the server had cleared out slightly. Within a minute the intel had already been surrounded by five sentries and the non-engi players were preceding to kill without reason. Suddenly, Nova heard the noise of a bell. From the top of the station she saw flashing lights below. Then it happened. In the blink of an eye she saw what she later described as ,"The Most Beautiful and Handsome thing my eyes could ever see." It was, the train.
Something inside Nova's head cllicked. She felt amazing just by seeing the train. It was as if the element of Generosity herself (had she been a stallion) had passed by riding on a cart with hair flowing in the wind. Nova could think of only one thing: "Oh my god I have to have him!" Unfortunately for Nova, everyone on the server managed to RTV and they were sent away to a much better, winnable map.
It took a few days but finally Nova had managed to return to the sacred of all sacred maps. The server was empty, so it was just her and her love. She flew down to the health pack road with the gates. She stood in the path and waited for the noise that was music to her ears. Oh the things she would do to that train that Lightning wouldn't because of "principle" or something like that.
At last the noise was heard, the lights were flashing, and here came the train. Right before it could hit her, she bounded into the air and landed on top, riding the train to wherever it went. "Hi there!" stated Nova. "I'm Nova Shine!" The train said nothing back because he was a train. "And I'd like to thank you for everything you've done to my enemies. Here's...a reward for all the help..." And then unspeakable acts occurred.
"Whaddya mean she's crippled for life!?" yelled Lightning Flash standing in a hospital room. Nova was lying in the bed, broken and unconcious. "It appears she has multiple cuts and bruises all over her as well as wheel marks. It seems she was run over by a train." stated Doctor Helping Hoof. "
"Darn. I only wish I knew what was going on in her head right now."
"For the past few days we've heard her mumble: 'Oh you huge train...' and etc."
"Any idea when she'll wake?"
"Hopefully within a month."
"Darn. Ah well. Back to the grind!"
Nova woke up 3 days later and preceded to get married to the train. They rode across the maps together for the rest of Nova's life. Nova had 3 lovely children who all carried on her legacy. Lightning got over it fast after realizing how insane Nova was.
