Planet Chronisia- UNR Counterstrike- Lieutenant Dominic Navarro
Luna found herself in a heavily war-torn city. She could see collapsing sky-scrapers and smoke that blocked out the sun. What disturbed her most was the multitude of dead bodies everywhere. She tried to turn away but no matter where she looked she could see a mutilated corpse of humans. She heard a loud boom as thousands of aircraft appeared out of nowhere in the sky. She saw large ships that had to be thousands of feet in length and one ship she saw was easily over five miles in length. There were thousands of much tinier ships coming out of the larger ones. She turned to see another cluster of ships but unlike the the others which were gray and blocky, these ships were green and more bulbous and circular. The sky became lit with explosions as the two fleets engaged each other. She heard a thump behind her as several humans in the armor that Navarro wore landed behind her.
"Command this is Lieutenant Navarro, we have touched down in the Arcadia District of Capital city." Navarro said over his radio.
"Roger that, Hydra control the city so civilian presence should be low. Kill everything that moves." The radio replied.
"Copy that. Jumpers, lets move." Navarro said as the human began walking into the ravaged city. Luna could feel the raw terror and fear these soldiers felt as they moved in to fight an unknown enemy.
"Oh my- SIR!" A Skyjumper called out as Navarro ran over to him.
"Whats wron- Holy shit!" Navarro said as he saw a pile of dead soldiers. What disturbed wasn't the dead soldiers but what was under them.
Dead children.
Luna shrieked at the sight of murdered children. What monster would do such a thing?
"Someones gonna fuckin pay!" Navarro growled. The memory zoomed forward as Luna then found herself in some sort of command center. She was shocked when she looked outside to see they were not on the planet but were in space!
"I can't do it! There is too many innocent people down there!" Navarro cried.
"Listen lieutenant, we don't know what happened to them but life readings indicate they are no longer human." Another voice said over a radio. Luna looked over on a video feed from the ground which showed more creatures like Navarro only they had black eyes and their skin had become a sickly green.
"NO! We can still save them!" Navarro said.
"There is nothing we can do. They are already lost, you know they would rather die than suffer this fate." The voice said again.
"F-fine I'll fucking do it." Navarro said as he made his way to a large button. Luna noticed the pained expression on his face as he broke the glass surrounding the button.
"I-i-im sorry!" He said as he pressed the button. Luna saw a bright light fire out from under them and saw it strike the planet. She heard thousands of screams of terror that were vanished in an instant. The video feed went dark as Navarro collapsed and cried to himself. Luna decided she had seen enough and left the human's mind.
Planet Posiedon IV- Tony and Andy Barelli
Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie found themselves in a suburban area that was on fire. The two ponies saw buildings collapsing and the sounds of terror.
"Dashie where are we?" Pinkie asked as her mane went flat and tears swelled in her eyes.
"I-I don't know!" Rainbow cried as a body landed right in front of her. It was a human and it's throat had been bitten out. A large bipedal creature landed with a thump next to the dead human. The beast was easily nine feet tall and had the strength to tear a manticore in two. It had disgusting green skin with four eyes that had haunting red irisis.
"Destroy the humans! Destroy them all!" The large beast chanted as dozens of smaller creatures leapt into battle.
"THATS A HYDRA! They were fighting those!" Rainbow shrieked in terror as the large alien fired its large weapon.
"DADDY!" A young boys voice called out. Pinkie turned to see a young boy, no older than six. He had long brown hair and Pinkie recognized this as a young Andy. Andy was holding onto a teddy bear and a much younger toddler with black hair. Rainbow recognized the younger one as Tony.
"GET OUT OF HERE!" A large human clad in armor yelled as he fired his weapon at the incoming enemies.
"NICHOLAS!" A woman shrieked as an alien snuck up on Tony and Andy's father. The human turned and sliced the beast's throat with his built in sword.
"MARIA! GET THE KIDS OUT OF-!" He screamed as a blade impaled through his chest.
"DADDY NO!" Andy screamed as he ran to his bleeding father. Andy went to his father's dying body and embraced it. He looked up and saw the massive alien about to deliver the final blow.
"PLEASE! DON'T HURT MY DADDY!" Andy cried as the alien chuckled and swung down its fist. Andy closed his eyes as he felt himself pushed out of the way. He looked up and saw his mother flattened under the monster's gargantuan fist.
"Andy run,, take care of Tony." His mother spurted out as Andy nodded and went to grab his brother and fled. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie could not believe the brutality of what they had just witnessed. They felt awful about what they said to the human earlier but before they could say anything, the disappered as they left the memory.
Planet Valaho- Alexander Ritchy
Rarity found herself in a dress shop so similar to hers she thought she was home at first. Lavish Tuxedo's and suits hung on hangars and walls in the building. The fresh smell of cologne was evident.
"Well this isn't so bad!" Rarity said as she saw a man behind the counter whom she recognized to be Ritchy.
UNCLE ALEX! UNCLE ALEX!" A little girl yelled as the door opened and she ran to Ritchy.
"Victoria!" Ritchy screamed as his niece jumped into his arms. "How was the field trip?"
"It was super cool! We saw a Battleship!"
"A battleship? Oh those wretched things!" Ritchy said. "How bout some ice cream?"
"YAY!" She said happily as she hopped outside holding her uncle's hand.
"Uncle Ritchy what's that?" Victoria asked pointing up.
"What is what?" Ritchy asked he looked up. He was a large ship hovering over the city. Hundreds of people around him did the same.
"It's probably just the Navy." Ritchy said but this ship looked different than any of the ships in the UNR Navy. Both Rarity and Ritchy were deafened by the sound of a loud trumpet. She looked up to see the large green ship that had to be miles in length hovering above her. She saw hundreds of demonic creatures exit the craft and land on the ground.
"Uncle? W-whats going on?" She asked frightened as she hugged her uncle. Ritchy couldn't believe it! There were aliens! The creatures landed on the ground, some only stood at a man's height, some stood at a mere three feet while a few stood at nearly nine feet tall. All the humans in the courtyard looked at the aliens with mixed feelings of excitement and fear. The aliens spoke in their language as they began firing at the humans. Ritchy picked up his niece an ran with her. Rarity saw more ships overhead attacking the green one as human soldiers entered the area.
"OPEN FIRE!" Rarity heard something scream as hundreds of humans began firing their weapons at the incoming enemies. Rarity dove for cover as the two armies slaughtered each other. She was petrified but found they strength to crawl away until she came to some rubble. She let go of the breath that she was holding as she tried to process what she had just seen. Those humans weren't lying at all!
"Uncle Alex? I'm really scared!" A young girl said. Rarity turned to see Ritchy holding onto his niece.
"It's okay Victoria." Rtichy said as he hugged the younger girl and ran his hand through her hair. The two ran for cover under some rubble in the destroyed shop they were in. Ritchy scanned the ground for something, anything to use as a weapon. He found a broken piece of glass and despite in cutting into his hand he held onto it determined to protect his niece. The two finally found cover under a large rock. They heard grunting and demonic words outside as Ritchy held his niece tight to his chest so the monsters wouldn't hear. Suddenly, a large rock was lifted up by a monstrosity that Rarity could never imagine. Ritchy put his niece behind him in an attempt to hide her from the monsters. Ritchy felt himself being picked up by one of the larger aliens revealing his helpless niece to the monsters.
"NO!" Ritchy screamed as another large alien grabbed his niece by the head in its hand. It laughed as it squeezed its fist. Ritchy heard her screaming and the cracking of her skull and the squishing of her brain as he head was crushed to a pulp by the large alien. Ritchy was too devastated for words as tears rolled down his face. He tried to hit the large alien holding him but his punches had no effect. Ritchy then pulled out the glass shard he had taken and jammed it into the alien's exposed eye. It roared in pain as it threw Ritchy to the ground causing one of his knees to dislocate on impact. The large alien growled as it pulled out its gun and aimed it at Ritchy. Ritchy waited for the end until he saw a blade sticking out of the alien's head. He heard weapons fire as the other aliens fell down dead. Rarity looked to see that a human in the armor Ritchy wore had just killed the large alien with it's sword.
"Sir, are you okay?" One of the soldiers asked Ritchy as more human troops entered the area to kill any remaining enemies.
"I lost her, Victoria." Ritchy asked still in denial of his niece's brutal death. His hand hovering over this niece's smashed cranium. He only hoped it was quick.
"It's okay sir." The soldier said. Rarity was whimpering, she could never imagine losing Sweetie Belle like that.
"Who are you?" Ritchy asked shaken up.
"Skyjumpers, we are here to get you out of here." The Skyjumper said as he grabbed Ritchy and flew off to the ship above. Rarity merely fainted as the memory ended.
Planet Centauri- Michael
Fluttershy found herself in a sort of temple. She saw stained glass windows and pictures of a human nailed to a cross. She heard a choir coming from the other room and headed towards it. She couldn't quite figure it out but there was something peaceful about this place. She entered the main hall where she was some humans kneeling down with their hands folded.
"Take this all of you and eat from it. For this is my body, which shall be given up for you." Fluttershy heard a man say. She looked up and saw Michael holding some sort of food in the air. She wondered why he would give people his body to eat. The mare then saw Michael raise a cup.
"Take this all of you and drink from it. For this is my blood, which shall be given up for you." Michael continued. FLuttershy flinched at the mention of blood but her thoughts were interrupted by explosions coming from outside. The explosion was followed by sirens and screaming.
"LET ME IN! THEY'RE COMING!" A man called as he banged on the door. Michael rushed over to the door as he heard the sound of a blade piercing skin. The door was then blasted open by a a creature more terrifying than anything FLuttershy had ever seen. It spoke in a language unheard of in Equestria but it was no doubt evil. People in the temple began screaming as it open fired upon them. Fluttershy ducked underneath a pew in order to hide when she saw the monster fall to its knees. Confused, she looked up and saw it standing before the statue of a man nailed to a cross surrounded by two winged humans with swords.
"DAMNED HELLION!" Michael screamed pulling out the cross around his neck. "BY THE POWER OF GOD! I COMMAND YOU TO RETURN TO ABYSS FROM WHENCE YOU CAME!" The creature roared in pain as Michael approached it. It swung its arm and knocked Michael across the floor causing Michael to drop his cross. It then turned and looked at the statue of the man on the cross. And in a pained voice, it spoke perfect Equish!
"You died for nothing! You only brought them time!" It howled in pain as it fired it's cannon and destroyed the statue. Fluttershy had never been this scared in her life! She began to cry as she prayed that this creature wouldn't see her.
"I can smell you child of God!" It yelled as it activated its blade. It began slicing down the pews as it hunted Michael. "Did you really think you were the only sentient life in the universe? Such ignorance cannot go unpunished!" Fluttershy saw one of the winged human statues had fallen leaving its sword on the ground. She saw Michael scurry to it and pick it up.
"HA! Do you dare challenge me?" The alien said.
"With God as my Father, why should I fear you?" Michael said fearlessly as he held up the sword. The creature charged as Michael ducked and stabbed it through the chest.
"Leave this House of God, Lucifer!" Michael growled as the demonic alien's body disappeared. Fluttershy had not even watched the fight as she was crying out of fear. She barely noticed the memory had ended.
Planet Seranto- Daniel Kowalski
At first, Twilight Sparkle was enthralled at seeing the human world. Skyscrapers the were miles high, holographic images, floating machines and everything! She wished she had brought her notebook to write everything down. She was so in the zone that she had not noticed the man beside her.
"Daniel, are you sure?" Twilight heard a voice ask.
"I was able to hack into UNR computer systems. All of Chronisia has been destroyed!" Kowalski said terrified. TWilight picked up the fear in his voice.
"By what? Terrorists? Meteor strike?" The other man asked.
"No, aliens." Kowalski said.
"Aliens? You mean like the little green men?" The other man asked laughing.
"Heh, try very BIG green men." Kowalskii said as he typed into the computer and the video feed came up of a destroyed city. It was calm and eerie at first till a hydra jumped in front of the screen roaring.
"HOLY SHIT! WHAT IN GOD'S HOLY NAME IS THAT!?" The other man said jumping back and holding his chest, the genuine look of fear on his eyes evident.
"Hmph, God!" Kowalski said dismissing the Creator of the universe. "Those are the aliens."
"You know you can get into some deep shit for this. How the hell did you even break into the system? I thought UNR military files were impossible to crack!" The other man said.
"Heh, not for me." Kowalski said.
"Glad to see your are so humble." The other man said.
"Look Ivan, the point is we have to warn the people. For all we know it could be us next, or even worse Earth." Kowalski said.
"But Earth has over twenty thousand starships guarding it including the TITAN II! Not to mention the Solar Laser cannon we got on Luna. And don't even get me started on the minefield in the asteroid belt!" The other man named Ivan said. Twilight's ears perked up at the mention of the word Luna.
"Chronisia had similar defenses and now it is wiped out." Kowalksi said. "If there is one thing we have failed to learn from history is that nothing is indestructable. Troy, The Titanic, Pearl Harbor, all were thought to be invincible and look what happened, we-" Kowalski said as his door broke down and several more humans in armor entered the room with weapons held high."
"THIS IS THE POLICE! HANDS ON YOUR HEAD NOW!" The leader said as Kowalski and Ivan were restrained. Twilight gasped at the police brutality. The vision moved forward to what looked like a courtroom.
"Daniel Kristoff Kowalski. You are hereby charged with illegally downloading and viewing content from the United Nations Republic Military, what do you have to say?"
Twilight was shocked to see Kowalski not responding.
"The punishment for such a crime is thirty years to life!" The judge said. Kowalski put his head down in shame.
"Unfortunately for you, you are the exception." A general who had been sitting in the courtroom said.
"Sir?" Kowalski asked.
"You cracked the most heavily guarded military content in the known universe. Nobody and no computer has EVER even come close to breaching the first set of firewalls and you did it thirty seconds. You have skill son." The general said.
"What do you want me to do?" Kowalski asked seeing his get out of jail free card.
"Join the Skyjumper Corps, you cracked our code after all." The general said before whispering to Kowalski's ear. "Maybe you can crack theirs!"
"What about Ivan?" Kowalski said pointing to his friend who had been convicted with him. "I couldn't have done it without him."
"He comes too." The general said. Twilight's heart fluttered seeing Kowalski's loyalty to his friend. The memory moved forward again and Twilight found herself inside what looked like a command center, only problem? It wasn't a human command center.
"Hurry up Ski! My thermal image reads hundreds of these closing in!" Ivan said to his friend as he held up his assault cannon to the locked door.
"I have to make sure virus uploads correctly. I can cripple entire fleet if I do this right." Kowalski said in broken english. Roars and screeches could be heard as the aliens began pounding on the door.
"Uh Ski?" Ivan said as he began to sweat.
"97%." Kowalski said.
"Ski?" Ivan said cocking his rifle as the door began to give away.
"98%." Kowalski said as the door burst open.
"HOLY SHIT!" Ivan said as began firing. Twilight rubbed her eyes as she collapsed when she saw the aliens. She had seen them before in pictures but seeing them live was entirely different. The beings gave off the very atmosphere of horror.
"Pieprzyć!" Kowalski cursed as the Hydra began firing. "IVAN DEFEND THE COMPUTER!"
"AH DAMMIT!" Ivan said as three of the aliens jumped on him and began tearing at his armor.
"IVAN!" Kowalski said as he ran to help his friend.
"SKI! THE COMPUTER LOOK!" Ivan pointed to the computer where a hydra regular aimed its gun at. Twilight could already tell how this was going to end.
"I'm sorry Ivan." Kowalski said in his helmets internal comm.
"I understand, I'll put in a word for you with the Big Guy when I get to Heaven." Kowalski nodded as he ran to the computer and killed the hydra trying to destroy it. He then turned to help his friend to see his helmet had been torn off and his throat had been slashed out.
"DAMN YOU!" Kowalski screamed as the virus finished its upload. Twilight couldn't bear to watch, she could never leave her friend to die like that no matter what. She was relieved to see the memory finally end.
Tommy Dean-Planet Earth
Applejack didn't see anything wrong. A large farm, a bright sun, the smell of hay, and a large barn. It actually reminded her of home.
"TOMMY! DINNER!" A woman called out into the field.
"AH COMIN MA!" A voice responded. Applejack saw a young tan man with dirty blonde hair run to his house. She saw several other people enter the house as well as they settled for dinner. Applejack was convinced Tommy and the other humans were lying, everything seemed perfectly normal.
"Tommy can you pass the taters?" A little girl Applejack assumed to be Tommy's sister asked.
"Sure thing Sally." Tommy said passing a bowl of mashed potatoes. Applejack knew Tommy was now lying until she heard the next sentence.
"Have you heard anything about pa or the war?" Another boy asked.
"I heard the hydra destroyed Galileo IV!"
"That's not true! The Skyjumpers kicked the Hydra's ass at Galileo IV!"
"MAX! Watch yer mouth!" The mother called. "This ain't something to discuss durin dinner."
"Ma's right, let's eat!" Tommy said digging in. Applejack started to reconsider when she heard 'war' and 'Hydra'. The family continued to eat dinner and then after sending the younger children to bed. Tommy, two of his siblings, and mother headed for the living room to watch the news.
"Reports from the front indicate the entire world of Galileo IV has fallen to the Hydra. Though the planet is now occupied, hundreds of millions escaped with their lives due to the heroic actions of Colonel Robert Lee and the 44th Skyjumper division.
"DIDJA HEAR THAT?" Tommy said happy. "PA STOPPED THE HYDRA!"
"However such a victory did not come without sacrifice, Colonel Robert Lee and the one thousand Skyjumpers were all killed in action." Tommy's demeanor changed fast as did his family's. They all stared at the news with open mouths and watery eyes. Applejack felt a tug at her heart when she got the news her father and mother had died. She felt sympathy for Tommy. The memory zoomed forward as it showed a slightly older Tommy packing his bags.
"Just where do you think yer goin?" Tommy's mother asked.
"Ah'm joinin the Skyjumpers just like pa!" Tommy said.
"Absolutely NOT!" His mother said. "You'll get hurt or worse!"
"Ma the situations worse than the news is saying. We've already lost seventeen planets, fifteen billion people, and the entire Western Quadrant." Tommy said. "Besides, ah'm gonna get conscripted either way." Tommy said.
"Its just we lost your father, we can't lose you too." Tommy's mother said as he hugged her. The moment was broken by the eerie sound of the Emergency Alert System. Tommy and his mother looked to see and were too frightened to move when they saw.
"Hydra forces have been spotted entering the atmosphere in the Northern Oklahoma Province of the State of America. All residents please lock your doors and do NOT go outside. This is an extremely dangerous situation, the military has been called in Plea-" It suddenly cut off and was replaced by static as an impact was heard outside.
"M-ma?" Tommy said, his eyes open with pure fear.
"Get the shotgun! I'll get the kids!" His mother said as Tommy ran to get the shotgun under the kitchen table. Applejack could see the hypervenilation and sweat coming off of him. She had never seen something so scared her entire life.
"Oh Jesus please don't let them hurt us!" Tommy cried as he held onto a cross he wore around his neck. His mother came down with the kids as they went to enter the basement.
"Tommy!" His mother cried.
"SHH!" Tommy said as he ducked down. A low growl was heard just outside the window. The ground thumped with every step the creature outside took. Tommy began shivering as he silently loaded and cocked the shotgun he held.
"**go****downstairs***" Tommy whispered. His mother closed the door deciding she had to protect her children in the basement. He heard his door get broken down and the growling got louder as the creature entered his house.
"Jesus please, don't let them hurt us. Please!" Tommy whispered as he slowly turned the corner to kill the Hydra just to find it wasn't there.
"What the-" Tommy said as two huge arms grabbed him from the window and pulled him outside.
"SHIT!" Tommy screamed as he fired a round into the massive Hydra's face killing at point blank range. He rolled to the side as another large Hydra came running at him. He pulled out the shotgun and fired all the rounds killing the alien just in time.
"AHH!" Tommy heard his mother and siblings scream. Tommy saw a smaller hydra throw a bomb into the house.
"NOOOO!" Tommy screamed as he ran as fast as he could to his house. They hydra saw him and fired a round into Tommy's leg causing him to stumble. The hydra walked up to Tommy and prepared to kill him when the house exploded sending a chunk of metal through the Hydra's chest killing. Tommy watched in horror as his family died in the explosion. Applejack couldn't bear to watch anymore, how could she have doubted such heartbreak? She was relieved when the memory ended.
R&R sorry it took so long, i go through phases where I write for weeks on end and then phases where I can't write shit!
