The Rift: A Whole New Story Ark

The MLP FIM analysis community once existed as a thing of isolation. No two analysts ever shared a single video. Then, on one fate day, a two part collab review of Magical Mystery Cure changed the the life of every MLP reviewer on Youtube.

Chapter 5: Faulty Wiring

The team of analysts went through the door Voice had created. The path had manifested itself as a stone corridor.

"Brace yourselves," Voice warned, "The Rift won't be able to discriminate between us and a real threat, it will react to everything that goes in the same." "Well then I guess it's a good thing we're walking directly into it with no idea what we're looking for." Texeirax complained. "I've locked onto the abnormality in the Rift, so we do at least know where we're going." Cam said. A powerful ripple surged; all the analysts felt it as it passed.

"What was that?" Dr. Wolf questioned. "I'm not sure." Voice said. "From what I can tell," Cam said, looking up from his gadget, "It's the intruders sending shockwaves through the Rift. I don't know what it will do to the Rift, but-" Cam was cut off by another ripple. After the ripple passed, Cam's device began to let out white noise and throw sparks.
"Uh, Cam? What's that?" Ink Rose asked. Cam stared at his device as it slowly died down.

"I don't know." Cam tinkered with the gadget to no effect. After trying to figure out what was wrong, Cam let out a shriek. "M-my suit… it's off line." Cam's voice was already weak. Mage steeped forward and began to heal Cam, but it wasn't doing much.

"His body is deteriorating faster than I can heal it." Mage said. Fire brand and Texeirax stepped forward to help her. With the three combined magic forces, they were able to cast a spell strong enough to keep Cam alive. "It's won't last forever," Dr. Wolf said after examining Cam, "Your body isn't equipped to survive without your suit. You should be fine so long as you stay within range of the unicorns." Cam nodded, "All my data was wired into my suit, I've got nothing. My suit was designed strong enough to take tank fire, I don't know who our intruder is, but they've got more power than any of us." "Alone maybe," Fire brand said, "But not together."

"Their tech user is offline." "I'm aware. Don't you think you could've done so in a less violent way?" "No, actually. And believe me, removing his support device is the most merciful thing to come." "I know, I just wish there was some other way." "Don't we all."
