I do not own My Little Pony.
Inside the United Nations Headquarters were two hundred and five representatives for almost all of the world's independent countries. Some had already discussed the horrors that was going on in the heart of Africa. Others were already aware of other issues that would be discussed at the meeting. But all saw the necessity of the congregation; whether or not those were willing to converse.
"The United Nations Council will now come to order." said a stallion with a black and white coat.
Silence invaded the air and ceased further gossip.
"Let us rise to recite the Creed of the United Nations." he continued.
Every stallion and mare rose and faced the blue and white flag representing the international organization.
"We- the United Nations- shall protect the rights of every pony life.
We- the United Nations- recognize these rights as the guarantee to life, tranquility, and freedom to all ponies.
We- the United Nations- were created by ponies, shall function for ponies, and shall serve ponies.
We- the United Nations- shall maintain the peace created by the ponies of the world."
The representatives sat down almost on cue.
"The Secretary-General Maneson George will now take the podium." the colt concluded before taking a seat off to the side of the floor.
A stallion wearing a brown suit approached the stage. He had a red coat and white mane.
"Representatives of the United Nations, the world is currently infected with a lethal poison in the African nation of Congo. According to our latest reports, as much as eight million Earth ponies that once resided Congo lie dead. The country's ruler Marx Ewell is showing no restraint in his campaigns to eliminate this demographic, which encompasses eighty percent of the Congo's population.
However, a new proposal is now being presented to our organization. I have invited a representative from the Hans Research Facility, conducting work in Stockholm, Sweden to speak about their latest breakthrough in genetics."
George stepped away from the podium and allowed a mare to approach the stage.
"Greetings, United Nations. I am Lula Brownstone speaking on behalf of the Hans Research Facility. Ten years ago, my colleagues and I have developed an artificial virus under the name Aliex. This is a special protein that eliminates immortality.
Here's how it works: as ponies age, their hormone production goes down which reduces the body's ability to repair itself. This causes our systems to deteriorate and eventually lead to death. However alicorns are born with a gene called AAA-111 which builds the body in such as fashion that makes aging impossible. From birth, AAA-111 produces a variety of proteins which protect the entire body from injury or illness. The gene AAA-111 allows twenty years of aging to let the alicorn develop into an adult. However, once the alicorn reaches the age of twenty, the AAA-111 begins to produce a protein called aliglobin in every cell in the body. Aliglobin provides all alicorns with negligible senescence; giving them immortality.
However Aliex insures that alicorns will someday die; either through old age, disease, or accident. The virus comes in the form of liquid that is injected directly into the bloodstream. An special syringe has been develop that is used to inject Aliex. It's end is extremely thin and coated with Aliex to allow it to break into the bloodstream.
Once injected, the viruses attach themselves to the white blood cells. The agents then sear their way through the cells' protective layers before entering the nuclei and into the strands of DNA. Aliex is specially designed to only target the gene AAA-111. Aliex obliterates the gene and the agents construct CBN-253 in its place. CBN-253 is the normal aging gene in pony DNA. The individual move out of the white blood cells and burn off the rest of the protective layers before moving on to the rest of the cells before dissolving into nothing. Without aliglobin and other proteins produced by AAA-111, alicorns will now be as susceptible to death as any other race of pony.
We have tested this virus on fifty volunteer alicorns about ten years ago. All of them began normal aging within a week of being injected.
It was only several months ago when our diplomat- Roxanne Willow- took notice of Aliex and made the decision to propose to the United Nations today.
Thank you."
As the mare walked off to take her reserved seat, she noticed the minimal applause the delegates returned.
Maneson George rose from his seat and trotted back to the center of the floor.
"Almost all of the world leaders whose countries are apart of the United Nations have already been informed about this resolution and some have already notified their corresponding delegates. Roxanne Willow shall now read S/RES/508."
The Secretary-General found his seat again as a pink mare approached the podium.
"Resolution 508
Proposed at the 2433rd meeting of the United Nations, on July 18, 1983.
The United Nations,
Recognizing the campaigns that are ongoing in the Kingdom of Congo. The government has legislated and enforced policies that are focused upon the extermination of the country's Earth pony population (estimated 57, 920,000 as of January 25, 1983). These policies are a violation of numerous resolutions adopted by the United Nations:
1. S/RES/001 states that "all ponies- regardless of race, creed, religion, or nationality- shall be granted the liberties of life and freedom" and that "all ponies are subject to fair judgement, reason, and opportunity".
2. Legislation approved by the Kingdom of Congo deny the basic, universal pony rights and liberties stated in S/RES/001. Marx Ewell and Congan leaders have established policies that discriminate the country's Earth pony population and are willingly deny them the universal pony rights and liberties defined in S/RES/001. These policies are not limited to Earth ponies convicted of crimes, but to the entire Earth pony population. The policies' stipulations and means of enforcement transcend reasonable treatment for any pony.
Recognizing the fact that the head of state of the Kingdom of Congo as of July 18, 1983 as Marx Ewell whom is an alicorn. Under current, uninterrupted physiology, people genetically related to the Alicorn race are not susceptible to death or harm in any form.
Affirming that although the Alicorn race encompasses 0.01% of the world's pony population, all members are not susceptible to death or harm in any form.
- The world population of alicorns is estimated to be 460,000 as of July 1983.
Realizing that the biological benefits of the Alicorn race may be harmful for other races. Although not all alicorns hold political office, the immunity they hold could be used against the will of others.
Realizing that so long as the Alicorn race retain biological immunity that they pose threat to corruption and oppression to the pony population.
I. The United Nations will require the world's Alicorn population to receive a drug known as Aliex. This virus will obliterate the gene AAA-111 which is responsible for negligible senescence and biological immunity within the bodies of alicorns. Upon taking effect, members of the Alicorn race will age at the normal rate of other races of pony.
- Adult Alicorns will resume aging at the biological age of twenty- which is the age at which alicorns would normally cease aging.
- Minor Alicorns will resume aging at the biological age they were at the time of receiving Aliex.
II. Any alicorn that is born following the ratification of this resolution will be required to receive Aliex between the age of one year and five years.
III. Members of the Alicorn race will retain their ability to conjure magic and flight, however Aliex will eliminate their immortality.
IV. Enforcement of this resolution, will be done at the discretion of the national governments.
V. Members of the Alicorn race that are found convicted of war crimes, crimes against ponyhood, or high treason against their country or its allies shall be subject to the judgement of their country's highest jurisdiction as well as the United Nations' court.
VI. Upon this resolution taking effect, all members of the Alicorn race must receive Aliex treatment within one year of ratification.
VII. Individual countries will be responsible for enforcing a required dosage of Aliex, however all must give at least 175 mL per alicorn.
VIII. This proposition will take affect with a two-thirds majority in the United Nations and can be repealed by the United Nations with a two-thirds majority for another resolution that intends to repeal this one."
The pink mare moved away from the podium and trotted back to her seat. Not a single cheer burst, word uttered, or action committed.
Maneson George returned to the center of the floor.
"Election for the ratification of S/RES/508 will be held next Monday: July 25. Any diplomat that wishes to speak on behalf of their country will be granted that right until then."
