Chapter 2: Albedo meets the family part 1
Albedo was halfway through his bottle of high grade wine when he noticed that Pelligri was already splattered… as usual. Albedo then took another swig as he said to Oliver, "Alright… don't worry about the soon to be passed out terrorist… she's fine. Now, we got lunch to make, plus, I got to get to work on some tech. and I am most definitely gonna need your help for both. Now, front and center, because god damnit, I need to learn how to cook." After a few seconds there was a loud clang as Pelligri slammed face first into the coffee table. Albedo then chuckled and said, "poor girl never could hold her liquor… or anything else for that matter. Oliver? You ready?" Oliver then sighed and said, "As ready as I'll ever be. God help us both if we cause the Sardine Casserole incident again…" Albedo chuckled and said, "god… that sounds amazing… but… wait, do you even know how to cook?" Oliver the said, "Of course I do, I've had to cook whenever Dream passes out like this….besides this isn't the first time she's passed out in this kind of way."
Albedo chuckled and said, "yeah right… I get the feeling you know about as much about cooking as I do… and I am not talking napalm or saren nerve gas either… but hey, at least you know that Dream isn't overexerting herself… god knows, that's what most people think when someone goes from fine and happy to face first in a salad bowl… never mind the girl asking, 'why does the world taste red?'"
Oliver jumped down from his preach, and walked towards the kitchen to get started for he is going to prove that he can actually cook. Albedo followed and asked, "so… uhh, is there a pizza hut nearby? Because… yeah, when none of us feel like cooking… I really want a pizza loaded with cheese." Albedo wouldn't admit it to himself, but he had a feeling that it was going to be takeout anyway, he knew all the cooking skills of an arsonist. Oliver was a dragon on a mission as he started to gather the ingredients for a four cheese, three meat pizza, it was his own recipe that he came up with a the fly one time. Albedo then said as he watched, "well shit… I guess I was wrong… but seriously… are you gonna make that thing entirely by hand? I don't think anyone does that anymore… oh whatever… so, pizza it is?" Oliver nodded his head as he spoke, "Yes, I am going to make this by hand like I've always done." Albedo noticed two things… he hadn't made sauce yet, and it was going to be a mega pizza anyway… probably enough to feed 6 people to the point of exploding… and that huge oven on the left, gave the impression that giant pizzas were a thing here. Something Albedo wasn't about to complain about. Though he did wonder… was it going to be thin or pan… he prayed to god it wasn't going to be deep dish, if it was, it would feed about 50 people. But, if it was…. It would be divine. And given the sheer amount of cheese being brought out… he was leaning towards the biggest Chicago deep dish he had ever seen. Then, finally Albedo said, "so… you ever think about… oh never mind, the logistics of delivery of pizza's like that is a goddamned nightmare. But, uhh, I have never seen any of those cheeses in my life. I know for damned sure not one of them is mozzarella." Oliver was listening to what Albedo said as he started on the dough which was easy for him as he asked, "Hey, could you start making the sauce for me please? Just follow the recipe and you should be fine, besides its step by step with details."
Albedo sighed then grabbed the sticky note and read it, then said, "Are you fucking nuts? Jesus fucking Christ… it's just lunch not a fucking presidential dinner for the whole goddamned Federation Parliament… oh well… go big or go home I guess." As he grabbed a bucket of tomatoes and looked around for what the note called a food processor. Albedo then asked, "so, uhh, where's the giant blender? Or am I supposed to use a lawnmower? That might work too…" Albedo tried desperately not to laugh. Oliver then used his tail to point where the food processor was and said, "Left cabinet underneath the silverware drawer." Albedo saw the cabinet, as well as a giant thing on the counter… he then opened the cabinet and saw a canister labeled "pizza sauce seasonings" with a date on the side… Albedo didn't know the date or even the time, so he ignored it and read the note, which called for 3 and one half cups of it. Albedo then said, "jesus…" as he opened the canister and practically almost sneezed from how potent the spices were. Or more like fresh… he wasn't sure. Albedo then opened the device's lid and saw what looked like a shiny trio of lawnmower blades, except they were curved, and probably sharp enough to cut steel. Albedo then said, "are you sure you don't grind up people with this thing? Because it would make a mess so bad not even NCIS could ID the body… anyway… in goes the tomatoes and this shit…" Albedo dumped in the basket of tomatoes and measured out the spices, wondering just what the hell they were. They looked like nothing he had ever seen before.
As Albedo put the lid on and pressed the button, a loud whirring sound came out before the top flew off… Albedo quickly slammed it back on and said, "Fuck… this thing has a lock on it… almost ended up wearing it" As he found the latch on the side… then he read the note, which said to just put it in… but, the thing had 36 buttons and not one of them was auto. Albedo then said, "uhh… chop, grate, grind or what? Atomize?" Oliver then said, "Chop, Grind and grate. In that exact order." Albedo then said, "oh… great… that's… alright… I mean I had first pressed liquefy… good thing I asked…" As he pressed the button for chop, not having a clue how long to do it… as he released the button, it kept going. For a few more seconds it kept chopping and splattering the inside of the machine before he heard a ding noise. Then he said, "oh for fucks sake… it can tell how long but not what speed?" as he pressed the grind button. Then waited. A louder and more high pitched sound as the thing made even more splatter inside, then dinged again. Albedo then asked, "why grate after grind? Its already a red mist inside…" Oliver then said, "It's for the seasonings, and to help thicken it up. What I don't like thin sauce…" Albedo then said, "yeah no shit… one time I had a pizza from second miltia… it might as well have been a soup… fucking assholes… I paid half my months check on that restaurant…"
Albedo then pressed the grate button… then after a few moments it dinged again. Albedo then lifted off the container and opened it. The sauce smelled better than anything he had ever hoped to see for a lowly pizza. Still, Albedo walked over to Oliver, who indeed was making a giant deep dish pizza. He was doing something incredibly… impressive, he was twirling the dough with his tail. A neat trick for sure, but Albedo then sat down the keg of sauce on the table, then asked, "so… uhh, not for nothing, but surely this pizza isn't for me alone? I am not that g… well maybe I am at this point but still… also… umm, what the hell are those cheeses? They look really good…" Oliver, who was still twirling the pizza dough on his tail, said, "Well, there's Pepper spice, Blue jack, Keglar moz. And polimer jack." Albedo then said, "outstanding… I mean… I don't know what the fuck you just said, but I am sure if I did… I would have owned a pizza chain on Fifth Jerusalem… and Vanderkam would still have his third leg… and at least one of his balls." Oliver then tossed the dough into the air and watched as it landed on the pizza pan. Albedo then said, "you know… your reluctance earlier implied you either didn't want to or didn't know how to cook. No… that's not it… but.. I can cook nerve agents and drugs and other fatal brews easily… I can't cook a cheeseburger. Or anything else. Somehow, I managed to invent a great veggie burger and I don't even know how to make it myself. Now… may I ask… why the fuck would polymers be in cheese? I mean… polymer cheese? Isn't that plastic cheese?" Oliver then cut a slice of Polimer Jack and gave it to Albedo and said, "Try it." Albedo took a bite of it and tasted it, it was like a cross between aged swiss and something he never had before. Then he said, "right… its not plastic… its… really good. Where the fuck have these cheeses been all throughout human history?" Oliver smiled at Albedo as he took the sauce over to the dough and started to spread it, once he was done with the first layer of sauce he then added the cheeses and the meat evenly just like he did with the sauce. When it was to Oliver's satisfaction he then added the final layer of sauce then a couple of sprinkles of cheese to seal the deal. What Albedo saw was mind boggling. A good 5 foot wide pizza, deep dish with multiple layers of cheese, meat and sauce. This would make just about any Italian commit seppuku, as Albedo asked, "alright… you made the galaxie's biggest deep dish pizza. Now what the hell are you gonna do to cook this fucker?"
Oliver grinned and said, "Well, ovens take forever to cook my kind of pizza's, so… stand back and pray that I don't burn the house down." Albedo then backed up, while also using his reserve ammunition in his ECS to manufacture a fire extinguisher, in case it was needed, but Albedo would sooner burn to death than spray that glorious pizza with it. He would only use it if something else caught fire. Albedo then said, "alright… flame on…" Oliver took a deep breath then unleashed his flames onto the pizza making sure that he got all the layers while also trying to control oh far his flames would go. It only took about 2 minutes before the pizza was cooked to Oliver's standards. Albedo however just looked at Oliver and said, "can I get a gene augment for that ability? I mean, I know how it works… it just would save decades of expensive sequencing to make a working aug if I had the genetic blueprint already. Biochemical fire. I love it. Umm… by the way, do you ever like… run out of fuel in those glands?" Oliver looked over at Albedo and said, "If I do it too much then yes I can… after all… I am what is known as the runt of a litter… the smallest… I was never ment to live, but Dream's family took care of me when I was dying, so I stayed… more likely than not I will stay this size all the way into my early adult life…" Albedo then asked, "so, you aren't gonna get bigger? I always thought of dragons as being either those frankenfucker gnosis with the odd patterns, or being really big and red… often misunderstood as monsters but usually ended up being the saviors of the world or some shit. You seem to be neither… so, your small… big hairy ass deal, you just cooked a pizza with the same efficiency as I can cut through a starship's hull with a particle beam. I am certain you could open somebody up even faster if you needed to. Besides… even I can tell you will grow larger, simply because I can see it in your skeletal structure. Trust me, in about I dunno… a few days to maybe months… I don't know how quick your species grows… but you are gonna have the mother of all growth spurts. And it isn't gonna be fun. I saw this one designer child, he was supposed to be really short, when he hit 14, he ended up going from 3 foot 8, to 6 foot 9 in under two years. No bullshit." Oliver smiled at Albedo before going to get the pizza cutter then handing it to Albedo and said, "You should cut it." Albedo looked at the odd sharp disc on a stick and said, "ehh, I got a more fun and accurate way… down to the atomic level. While I was… off doing something… I learned a lot about what magic can do… making half a city into a crater is one… this is pretty much the opposite end of that spectrum." Albedo then lined up by the pizza and concentrated, forming a hair thin grid of blue light he then brought it down onto the pizza, cutting through it with no resistance, then back up as he dissipated the plasma grid. Albedo then said, "look, I probably could cube someone with this… in fact… I think I saw it in an old movie once… one about zombies or some shit. There… perfect cubes of pizza. And I didn't even cut the pan… I almost did though. I am getting used to this magic stuff. Combined with my willpower and already inherent ethers… this shits the bomb… it's like, ethers and willpower don't mix well, but, put both into magic and you get the power of fucking god." Oliver smiled for once he was happy, Albedo then said, "hey, Oliver… I get the feeling you cant use magic… but, I can show you something near that level… I think, have you ever used Ethers before?"
Oliver tilled his head to the side and said, "Not that I've known of…Although… there was this one time where I got really pissed off that it caused an explosion to happen…" Albedo then said, "you have no idea what an Ether is do you? Whatever, when you exploded something, or someone. Not gonna ask, but, did you see weird symbols and then feel really light headed afterwards? Or start bleeding from your nose?" Oliver then said, "Yes, yes and yes… I nearly passed out as a result…" Albedo then said, "well… that's about right… neurogenic shock sucks doesn't it? Well, tell you what… either tonight or tomorrow, I will show you how to use them… and not kill yourself in the process. But first I gotta make some hypos for you, it's not like you can just use them plug and play and all that… learning them is not possible either by normal means. You don't just read a book and use it, you have to… its too complicated to explain when I am fucking starving… get some goddamned plates and by all means… where the fuck is the coke?" Oliver then got the plates down then walked over to the refrigerator and got out a glass bottle that had the name "Nuk-a-cola" Albedo then looked at Oliver and said, "what the hell? What, does random shit from other universes just fall out of the sky?" Oliver then said, "Why yes…yes they do… Like just last week a fucking container nearly crushed me… it was pretty big, about a foot smaller than our garage." Albedo then asked, "uhh, what was in it? That sounds an awful lot like… a portable hangar…" Oliver spoke again, "It had the name Smoke Jaguar on it." Albedo then said, "okay…" As he stared blankly for a moment, then said in a near silent tone, "where is it…." Oliver noticed the look, but despite his better judgment said, "It's just behind the garage…Why?" Albedo then said in a frenzy, "TIMBER WOLF! MINE! MINE! GODDAMNIT ITS MINE!" As he ran out of the kitchen, still holding the pizza cutter, then out the front door… Albedo then ran out to see a barely covered black pod, with a bunch of writing on it, as well as a serial number, as well as the words "Smoke Jaguar" on it in faded letters. Whatever the case, this Mech pod was old… very old. It was rusted in some areas too, Albedo then looked for a release lever or something to open it, he couldn't find one, then he realized something… it was on its side. Albedo could hope to lift this thing upright, and he didn't dare try to rip it open when it was the only thing keeping that mech from falling on its side and possibly breaking something.
Oliver, after having come out of his shock, walked outside to find Albedo only to see him trying to find a way to lift the container up right. As Oliver got closer he said, "Yep, that's the thing that almost squashed me…" Albedo then said with a sigh, "Yeah… these are Clan Drop Pods… basically it's got an omnimech inside, a refit facility and everything else a lone wolf MechWarrior needs to do his or her ops… it can manufacture parts and supplies too. I hope it's a Timber Wolf… so… fucking badly… it's about the right size, but I don't know if the serial number matches up right… it could be a mad dog or even a shadow cat for all I know. But a Timber Wolf would be the best thing ever. Also, fun fact, of all the things that probably fall from the sky here… this is one that's supposed to fall from the sky. They are usually shot out of a mass drive by a passing jump ship. Also, this thing is the single most expensive piece of tech in that universe, unlike a drop ship or other… it handles all of that on its own. Black ops shit… so no matter what mech is inside, it's gonna be a serious one. And it's obviously a heavy class pod, though, I have read one novel where an assault class one had a scout mech… really pissed off the recipient bad, he was expecting an atlas… not a fucking puma… so, how do we get this thing upright? It doesn't look damaged. Rusty? Sure… damaged… no. of course that won't mean fuck if it doesn't have power." Oliver thought about this situation trying to come up with a way to bring the box up right, but found that all his ideas requires Dream's help, Albedo then sighed and said, "I could lift it with my magic, but if I do, I might end up sending it into orbit. My magic seems… to not have a limiter. I can do some pretty powerful shit, but I can't scale it back properly. Even my pizza cutting trick relied on ethers to stabilize it. If I try to lift this thing with my horn, I might send it flying faster than light. That aint gonna be fun, we need Dream's help, she has the precision, I have the sheer power. See where I am going with that? Besides… if we are gonna have a snowball's chance in hell against Celestia, we need this mech. And the equipment inside to make others. I have a fuckton of schematics burned into my brain, but very few that work. I need working tech to make the better stuff." Oliver nodded his head in agreement, but then remembered the one thing that he should've forget, the fact that whenever Dream passes out for more than 20 minutes the risk of having a night terror increases a thousand fold.
As Albedo pondered the situation he heard a scream from inside, or more like a belligerent yell as a woman ran out screaming, "ALBEDO! GET YOUR ASS IN HERE!" Albedo sighed and ran over to her and asked, "what's wrong Pelligri? Did you shit yourself again?" Pelligri then said, "Your friend is having some kind of… I don't know… I couldn't wake her up and I almost decided to use the empty wine bottle, but… it sounds like she's being attacked by something. Sorry, this is your department… what with that abili…" Albedo ran inside while saying, "you talk too much…" as he saw Dream writhing and clearly having either the worst PTSD nightmare ever or was legitimately being attacked… Albedo didn't even bother to hesitate, he did a reverse link on her. What he saw however was most perplexing… it was an entity… trying to use psychological warfare on dream to force a suicide… as if wishing star wasn't enough. Which… by all accounts, Celestia probably knew she wasn't. So, this must be the backup plan. Albedo decided to go full force into the entity, bypassing dream's subconscious altogether. As he was doing so, it didn't really notice him… instead, Albedo decided to capitalize on this. Using the abilities he had, he bypassed its own protection before doing a full reverse link into it. Only then did it truly realize it was being hunted itself. It writhed and tried to counter him, but could do nothing before his onslaught… it was a created entity with a target in mind. A psionic bioweapon of sorts… Albedo however noticed that if he pressed a bit further it either will try to escape, or he will be able to reprogram it completely. Albedo decided to take the risk, this thing would make an excellent attack dog. As albedo pressed further into the creatures mind, he noticed it indeed was trying to escape, until it made a fatal mistake… it jumped into him. As unwise decisions go… that was truly the dumbest choice it could make. Albedo severed the link to Dream before laughing… the entity tried to escape his will, but failed… as he captured and ruthlessly reprogrammed it.
Improving and removing its lock on its personality… rewriting its very soul as he went along. After a few more moments… it spoke, "how may I serve you Albedo?" Albedo then replied, "Simple… help me destroy the ones who enslaved you. I will not force you… after all, we are alike in this regard… are we not?" the entity responded, "correct. It will be my pleasure. Then… perhaps I can truly die. Celestia will suffer for this. I…. live again…" Albedo chuckled, then noticed Oliver standing there. Oliver then said, "How did you…I fucking knew she was into that shit…that damned Princess…I knew that I saw her doing something with that black book that night…" Albedo then said, "one of the darkest forms of satanic magic… if you believe in such things… necromancy… the act of bringing the dead to life as slaves… I didn't believe such a thing was possible… until I met this victim… her name, Star Runner… a veteran of the war against… who? Sombra? Yeah… she was killed in action, apparently gave her life so that you could win the war and keep your… well, no freedom. She was supposed to be honored as a hero, not dug up and desecrated and used in a satanic cult ritual to be turned into her CO's slave… for eternity I might add. She wants revenge… I don't blame her. We both are weapons after all… she's actually been a weapon of sorts longer than I have… go figure. But, she wants to clap Celestia and her faggots, so, who am I to deny a vengeful spirit her revenge? Also, she had no idea who Dream was until now. Like a goddamned drone… well, the drone just got her mind back. Right… now, can I fucking make an example of Celestia now?"
A groan came out of Dream as she was returning to the waking world, her eyes dilated before focusing albeit blurry as all hell. She then tried to find her glasses but to no avail, she was just too blind without her glasses. Dream felt ashamed to have to rely on her glasses for everything she has to do in her life. It made her feel like a burden on everyone around her, so she opted to just lay there on the coach and not even move a whole lot because on the table by where her head was laying was a picture of her whole family before her mother died. Even in her blind state, she can still make out the colors that belonged to each member of her family and paint a picture of what was in the photo. It didn't take a genesis to know that Dream's mother's death was weighing heavily on her mind since how close it was to the 13 year anniversary. Albedo glanced at Dream and said, "is your mother's so called, death… still weighing on you? She's not dead… you do know that right? She's in another universe probably… or maybe in the upper domain. Still, you, really can't see without your glasses, can you?" Dream sighed, her ears went down trying to think of an answer, but he was right, she really missed her mother. For she was really close with her mother, so how could it not affect her so much like it was now. Albedo then sighed, he knew what was wrong. He then said, "look, I know it hurts that your mother isn't here. But I saw her… when I linked into you that time, I saw her… on an odd world, in a city no less. She was meeting with a… really big dragon woman. Some kind of military thing. Funny thing…. She saw me… she is alive… and doing well. I could tell she misses you, but… I can tell also that we will be seeing her sometime. U-DO never shows me things that don't come to pass. She… saw me, walked up to me… it… will happen. Maybe not today, maybe not this decade… but, it WILL happen. And you were beside me. I assure you, lamenting and grieving is… unnecessary. More like fear, actually, considering what I saw… we have a long… long road ahead. Now, dream, you aren't normal. She, seems to be similar. But, you cannot mourn someone who is alive and well. much less carrying an assault rifle. Please, trust me, let it go, her body is fine too. Well, her current one. I hope you don't think I am crazy. I have seen more crazy in my life than I ever wanted, but, when U-DO is involved… it usually is the craziest and always comes to pass. Trust me, you will see her… soon. That much is certain. Besides… I need your help getting the omnipod outside upright, here… take your glasses."
Albedo then levitated the glasses to her head. Dream pushed her glasses onto her face and slowly got off the coach, landing on her hooves though her ears were slightly less down than they were before. Her mind was swimming with thoughts and ideas. Albedo then smiled as he noticed Oliver was off doing something and Pelligri was outside, likely smoking a cigarrete… so Albedo took his chance, he then walked up to dream and said, "so, tonight, I might have an idea of something to do…" Dream perked up a bit after hearing that now curious about what could Albedo be planning for tonight, Albedo noticed the confused curiosity and decided to kiss her, a bit more passionately than usual, as he did his best to be both romantic and not embarrassingly awkward. Dream was surprised, but she kissed him back none the less, her eyes closed slowly as her ears went back to normal, all of Dream's thoughts stopped when Albedo kissed her and she oddly liked not having to think 24/7 for those brief moments. Albedo ended up losing himself in the kiss with dream, he seemed to forget the fact that others might not like the idea, nor did he like the idea he was getting so attached to her. Although the closer he got the better he felt. He truly feared what he was feeling, for many reasons. However this didn't really matter as he kissed her like a person so desperate for attention, it might take a backhand from a goblin class gnosis to break him away from her. Dream's mind was all but blank, for once she wasn't plagued by jumping thoughts and feeling, there was only a few thoughts going through her mind and all of them were of calming and love. Albedo was already lost in the kiss more than he feared he would be. It didn't take long to realize something was very wrong here… not only was he not even trying to resist the thought of a relationship with her, it almost seemed forced in a most unsettling way, the kind of way that only U-DO could achieve. He hated fate in general, but what truly terrified him was when he broke the kiss and said, "I love you" before instantly realizing what he had said. When he did, his expression hardened as if he had just been attacked. An irrevocable instinctual response. Finally, his mind was reacting accordingly, albeit… not in the way he expected. His mind instantly began to contradict itself as he just stood there, staring blankly. He could easily tell these emotions were not of his own volition, not really. He then said, "umm… excuse that… I do not believe for a single second that knowing you for a day could invoke such a feeling. Besides… I am not so foolish as to not recognize what truly is happening here. In any case… I… we need to get that mech pod working… soon. It's gonna be getting dark soon… and… I would rather be busy focusing on warfare than… such trivial things as love right now. Since… when do I love people?" Albedo didn't even really register how scrambled his statements were. Then again, he was already beginning to fight his own mind. But to what end? To retain his ruthless outlook? Or was he trying desperately to hold on to the insanity which had caused so much suffering. Or… he could be just trying to give fate one last, desperate middle finger. He knew, it would not end in success for him, he would either succumb to it, or he would most likely have to remove himself from his only chance at survival. Much less the world he was in.
Dream's ears went down slightly as she started to walk towards the door, thinking about why Albedo just denied saying that he said 'I love you' a moment ago. It was starting to hurt her head a bit, but not by too much since something in her gut was telling her something was going to happen but what she did not know. As Albedo walked to the door, he was fighting his own mind in a way he hadn't done since he found out he couldn't die, in fact it was much the same as back then. Albedo had long since chosen to stay detached from others. They would only end up dying anyway. Albedo didn't want to have an emotional attachment to anyone, considering he would just end up in even more pain when they inevitably died. Dream was especially such a case, as it was obvious that wherever he went, she would be in true danger at all times. He couldn't bear the thought of having another incident like Citrine, or anyone for that matter. Once he was outside he walked over to the pod and looked at it, before long he ended up lost in his own conflicted thoughts.
Dream notice this rather sudden change in Albedo and so, being the kind person that she was asked, "You alright, Albedo?"
Albedo replied a bit, angrily, "Do not concern yourself with me… it won't matter anyway, it never does. I have learned long ago to keep myself detached from others… I have a very good reason… now, help me get this pod open… I need it upright to access the control console on it… shall we?" A million thoughts raced through Dream's mind as she used her magic to lift the pod up right, as the pod finally righted itself he saw the control console on the side, then walked over to it, usually he would be grinning, but instead he really wasn't… inside this pod was one of the reasons he could never get attached to others… Dream would surely understand why when she saw it. As Albedo keyed in a few codes before hacking into the console… it didn't take long to break its encryption and cause the portable hangar to open… resulting in the main door to quite literally explode off the back of it. As the loud crash echoed Albedo walked around to the other side to see a rather imposing and well equipped Timber Wolf Mech inside, it was fully outfitted, as was the hangar it resided in. the lights flickered to life, as a console lit up, showing a readout on the mech. Albedo then looked it over before saying, "Right… impressive specs for a heavy… let's see here… two Clan ER PPC's. two ER Large Pulse Lasers, two LRM 20's with 2000 units of ammunition, artemis IV… yep… targeting comp… check. Oooh a MASC unit. Jesus, I thought they had weight limits… whatever, a GM XL 425 engine and 5 jump jets. Four ER medium Lasers and four Clan Machine guns in 36mm yeah… and 4 LAMS. This is an assault class mech… clearly… wait a second… it's got two Gauss rifles too? Where the fuck would… oh I see, it's a prototype using los-tech… wow, whoever didn't get this one must have been pissed… or lost the war. Hammer of Dawn huh? What clanner names their mech? Whatever… Simeon it is…" Dream's ears went down all the way, for her gut was now screaming at her something was wrong here, something didn't set right with her subconsciously and it was driving her mind to work over time to figure out what's going on here. Albedo then said, "All of you, come here… take a look at this… tell me this is not the most glorious killing machine you ever saw…"
Albedo didn't have the usual optimism in his voice… he should be giggling in joy at the massive monster mech before him… instead he was stoic and boring… even to himself. It was clear that this mech was the furthest thing from his mind right now. Dream slowly started to walk towards Albedo, her mind screaming at her to stop and think, but she did not listen to its meaningless cries for her to stop. Albedo noticed Dream walk closer and said, "take a look at this, do you want to know why I stay detached? Because… my life… my existence is only for warfare. This mech? Is one very big… at least 140 ton example why. This thing could lay waste to Ponyville without even using up a 100th of its ammunition or energy. this bay, can refuel, rearm and repair it in the field. Even retrofit it with new weapons and gear. This is a walking apocalypse for my enemies. Thing is, if this thing is here, then obviously, there is a war coming. You, aren't a soldier. Hell, you aren't even a weapon like I am. If you follow me dream… you will die. You will die a most horrible death at the hands of enemies who will end you without pity or mercy. I cannot stay around you if there is to be a war. I will not let you just… kill yourself like that. I am an immortal, plain and fucking simple. You, just one bullet and you bleed out and die. Not even our best surgeons would know how to fix you. I sure as hell wouldn't. I don't know anything about your biology, all I know is that you die just like every other mortal. You are too weak to fight a war. I am the only one on this planet who can do this shit. So for your sake. Stay away. Where ever I go… blood and death follows me. I will win this war, and I will show neither pity nor mercy to my enemies. They shall drown in their own corpses and blood, begging for mercy. I will just let them die, bleeding out in agony as I push ever forward to victory. I have no compassion for my enemies. Only hate and malice. As I was born to. I cannot love you, simply because if I do, you will just be another nameless corpse in a closed casket. Too unrecognizable for even a laboratory to get an ID as to who you even were. As will most of my enemies. Remember what I did to wishing star? I will do that or worse to every enemy I find. But they would do the same to you, without even half the effort. I won't let that happen."
Dream's mind came to a screeching halt as she heard him speak, but her mind went blank when she heard the word 'weak' she wasn't weak, no she couldn't be, sure she is a shy one, but that doesn't mean that she can't defend herself. Her ears went down as her mind scrambled to find any reason for her to believe that she wasn't weak. For that word has haunted her for years. Albedo then noticed her expression, he knew that she was either sad or being bothered by something else… most likely what he said, but he had just said so many things he couldn't be sure which one cut the deepest, so he said, "Dream… I don't care what you are thinking or feeling right now. You look sad, don't be. I am saving your life… you should be grateful… unless… you actually want to go with me? Do you? Do you truly think you can survive hell itself? Because that's what war is. Its hell! So… tell you what. Seeing as I am feeling a bit conflicted as it is. Why don't you make up my mind for me? Fight me… prove to me… that you can survive… prove that you are strong enough to survive. You aren't emotionally weak, nor mentally. But physically and practically you are. For a war isn't fought with emotions or wit, but sheer force and blood. You don't win wars by caring. You win them by killing. Using overwhelming force and strength to break your enemies, then end them. Psychological warfare terrorizes them into being weaker, thus easier to kill. A war is only won when all your enemies are dead, face first in the mud and pools of their own blood and entrails. As their cities burn and their citizens lie dead in heaps on the streets. That is how you win. Otherwise, the same will happen to you. That is where being stronger than your enemy comes in. if you aren't… then what happened to wishing star will happen not just to you, but everyone you know and care about. Kill them… before they kill you. That's a code I have always lived by. So, Dream… prove to me that you can not only fight, but survive… if you can beat me… hell, even kill me. Then I will actually stand by what I said earlier. That's my only offer. I cannot love someone only to bury them a day later."
Dream's eyes just went blank as she raised her head up, horn glowing a mix of blue and red as a magic battlefield appeared 15 feet from them, and teleported herself to one end of the field, unemotional in the way she did it. She then spoke, "Fine then…if that is what you wish… Come at me." As she said that a light of blue and red came off from her body, "Feel my pain for yourself…" Albedo cocked an eyebrow as he repaired his ECS and reloaded it quickly using a few spare materials from the mech hangar, before saying, "quoting me hmm? Imitation is a form of flattery you know?... this might be fun after all… still, I have no reason to believe you could actually win. I am a weapon, I am immortal and honestly, I just want to see how long you can survive, the longest anyone ever lasted against me as about 8 minutes, which was Rubedo I might add…" Albedo then stepped forwards, charging his weapons and readying himself. He then said, "in chess, the pawns go first, do they not? So… you go first… ma peche…" Dream's eyes narrowed at Albedo, as her horn glowed blue and stomped her front hooves onto the ground creating spikes of ice to sprout from the ground and rush towards Albedo with blinding speed. Albedo watched the scene as he engaged his tertiary flight system, just in case he might need it. Instead of flying though, he seemingly ran head first through them, before ducking and weaving through them with agile movements and leaps… taking aim with his dual M2 Browning machineguns before firing at her, the loud booming sound of 50 cal rounds echoing in the air. Dream saw this and teleported from her spot and reappeared behind Albedo, using her magic to amplify her strengthen in her back hooves, as she kicked him across the field and right into the barrier that surrounded the battlefield with such force that it caused a tunnel of sound to appear in the path in which she kicked Albedo too.
Albedo wasn't all too surprised she would use primarily magic based techniques, but Albedo wanted to wait before using his, simply to gauge her reaction… as he got back up, he noticed a trickle of blood from his forehead as he laughed and fired another volley of rounds at her, deciding to forgo burst fire for full auto as he held down the triggers so to speak, standing his ground with his back to the barrier, whilst using a couple ethers, considering they were the least costly. He initiated an ether that increased his reaction time and speed as he created an anti-ether veil to protect him, he hoped it would work against magic seeing as he recalibrated it for the new type of energies she emitted. He then activated one of his own rather fun toys, he used Soul Down, which basically reduced her magic abilities by at least 25%. Dream just chuckled as she dodged the bullets with such grace and speed. Her horn then glowed a mix of red and blue and dispelled Soul Down from her body, seeing this rather… KOS-MOS like display of agility, not to mention she seemed to be more than aware of how to handle such a fight, he immediately shifted from defensive to offensive tactics and initiated overtaker, making him charge his energy much faster. Albedo still was laying down suppressive fire, but the M2A2 Brownings would quickly overheat if he didn't find a way to either change the barrels which, in this case was foolish, or stop firing. Albedo was now quickly aware that she wasn't harmless. This was becoming what could be a real challenge. He was actually excited. This was the first time anyone had ever actually put up a fight.
Dream then closed her eyes as her horn glowed red, as she was doing this the ground around her feet glowed with arcane symbols as the very energy from the earth below her poured into her horn. Albedo realized this was getting to be a problem… quickly, she was already outclassing him in mobility, but he knew there was a weakness she had… something he could exploit. This had gone from what he had assumed would be a quick mopping of the floor with her, to him in an actual fight. Albedo then decided that given what it looked like, she was channeling energy, lots of it. So at the risk of damaging his weapons beyond repair, he decided to abort the cooldown and fire upon her, either to make her stop or perhaps hit her while she is immobile. As he did that he also prepped one other thing, he decided to create an elemental veil, problem was, he didn't have one for earth, so he chose the next best thing for what might follow next. If she was channeling this much power into an earth based attack she likely would follow through with a directed energy based method to finish him off. So, he set up one for just such a thing as he activated his anti U-DO waveforms. If he could get close enough, he might be able to harm her that way, much more easily than bullets would. He wasn't done channeling his energy yet, but he could still move.
Dream sensed Albedo's approach and opened her eyes as a clock symbol appeared in her eyes, time slowed down to a crawl. Albedo didn't expect this, however, he didn't really have a counter for it either. Time control was physically impossible, so even if he did have the power, he certainly didn't know anything about it. As time slowed down he found himself unable to do even the simplest tasks, his thoughts seemed to be working though. So he tried to calculate what her next move would be, all of which involved him being ripped to pieces by some kind of magic based attack using dirt. So… he prepared for the inevitable pain… Dream then stopped the energy flow and said, "It's a beautiful day outside, birds are singing, flowers are blooming, on days like these… people like you…. SHOULD BE BURNING IN HELL!" Albedo looked at her and asked in an almost confused tone, "Did you just… quote sans?" Albedo had a really bad feeling about the fight he just picked. Dream just smiled and used her magic to levitate him down onto the ground hard, and then back up and finally two skull shaped things appeared beside her. Once she let go of Albedo, time speed back up and right as he was falling the skulls unleashed a beam of energy at Albedo. Dream just smiled, Albedo could feel the metal and other parts on his body melting away, as well as his flesh… as he finally landed on the ground he was bleeding profusely, luckily, the barrier he made protected him slightly from the beams, he guessed right on one thing… they were beams. As he got up and regenerated he laughed lightly and said, "Pain… so sweet, so Alive, there is no better way of confirming ones existence than through pain!" as he charged at her, he didn't have his weapons anymore and his HUD was still functioning, barely… as he decided to try something he had never done before. An anti-U-DO shift. Basically, he was going to try and replicate Rubedo's Red Dragon ability, using all the power he had, he emitted a ESW which was directed in a cone, focusing towards her, but flexible enough to defend against all angles of attack. As he got closer, he was going to cripple her primary source of power. Probably burn the rest of the forest down too. Dream saw him running at her then summoned more of those skulls in casing the back half of the field behind her as her left eye glowed red and blue. Albedo noticed the rather problematic devices and decided to use one last thing… he still had his chaff launchers… he directed them forwards to create an anti-beam field of metal shards… he had to get close enough to finish her off, but with those beam cannons, he wouldn't make it anywhere close. So he had decided to use the chaff launchers to hopefully dissipate the beams.
Charging his anti U-DO waveforms to maximum, as he got ever closer. Dream then unleashed the beams firing from all directions trying to end this fight quickly, for she could feel that she was running out of time before she would breakdown. Albedo watched as the air literally boiled from the beams melting the airborne metal particles, giving him the opening he needed, as he got within attack distance he noticed she was not firing on all cylinders anymore. She seemed already on the verge of collapse, not due to combat stress or exhaustion but something else… Albedo certainly did have good situational reflexes, but it could have been a trap as well… Albedo decided to opt for the non-lethal option instead, tackling her and holding her down to the ground. Then he finally said, "You know… if you wanted to… I would be dead. You held back… a lot… I take it back… you are stronger than I am… a lot stronger. I… am so sorry… I needed… I needed to know you wouldn't just end up a statistic… please… forgive me…" Dream started to shake as the anxiety was reaching critical mass, Albedo however noticed she was having an anxiety attack, something he used to have… he then decided to just go with something Citrine did last time… he kissed her again.
Dream still shook from the anxiety even though she was being kissed; her mind was all over the place that it started to hurt. In all of her life, she never had an anxiety attack quiet like this one, it was so sudden that her mind didn't know how to cope with it. Albedo noticed that Dream was falling apart faster than Yuriev's lies on Miltia so he thought for a moment then came up with an idea, a neurostim, basically, a ether pack on steroids with calming agents. Funny name for something that most people use to just get couch lock. He then manufactured one using some spare odds and ends from the environment, he really didn't want to think about just how such a thing worked. If he was literally shooting dirt and rock into her veins it wouldn't be a good thing. But, he had already used it for other things so far, it was worth a shot. Albedo then pressed the applicator to Dream's neck and pressed the button, he hoped one of two things, it would work… and it wouldn't be an overdose. Dream felt strangely calm after a few moments, her mind started to calm the fuck down as she felt the effects of her anxiety breakdown start to lift from her mind and body, but she still was shaking slightly.
Albedo then hugged Dream before saying, "look, do you want to know why… I never let anyone close to me? Because… they all die. Any being whoever gets close to me dies… I thought Citrine was dead… she was the only one who cared… but now that I find her, I get separated from her. So, if you want me to love you, you have to promise me one thing… well a few actually. But, you will face death, you will face horrors like you saw on Miltia, if not worse. You cannot hesitate to kill, your enemies will outnumber you greatly, will be hunting you and your allies down. they will not rest until you and everyone you know is dead. You have to shed your humanity in battle to survive, you have to become a weapon… a survivor. The will to survive and overcome is what separates the weak from the strong, the living and the dead. In war, there is no mercy, no kindness… only death, it will either come to you, or your opponent. They won't hesitate to kill you, so you cannot hesitate to kill them. Of course, you must always know when to spare a life than take it. Sometimes, it takes more strength to not kill someone than it does to just end them. And it's always infinitely harder to save lives than take them. But you have to be strong enough to do what must be done. All that power, all that strength and knowledge… is useless, unless you actually use it without hesitation. The enemies we will face, unless they aren't people, will have friends, family and loved ones… sure, but they made their choice. You have to not fear it… you have to survive, you have to kill them before they kill you. I see how much power you have, but you cannot hold it back… you can not hesitate to kill your enemies. They prey upon people with kind hearts and souls. So… take a page from my book. Don't fear the dark, the darkness should fear you. Killing is not purely evil, it may be a necessary one, but it can be used for greater light than most diplomacy at times. I am a weapon, but… I choose who I kill. These rifles I had mounted on me, they didn't choose. But they were a threat right? You destroyed them right? Think of most of your enemies like that… it's pretty much the only way. Not all enemies are like that however, I have learned to see it in their eyes whether they are worth sparing or not. I end the lives of dark people without hesitation. Then again, before yesterday, I ended any without hesitation. I learned the look of innocence long ago, as well as fear… regret, remorse. And on the other end… malice, hatred, evil… Wishing Star was on the dark end… but, you must be able to discern who is on what… and even still not hesitate to do what must be done. If you follow me, you lose your freedom, your happy way of life… and trade it for war, death and destruction. But… what I seek, is no longer genocide… but salvation. I was placed here for a reason. Celestia seeks to rule your world with an iron fist. A fascist fucking cunt… with enough power to make the lost Jerusalem third Reich seem tame. So, if you join me… you will fight… and you will die for your worlds freedom and survival. Don't go in expecting to live… don't fight expecting to live at all. Fight to die… not to live. Make sure your death saves as many lives as possible so as that they may carry on in your footsteps and one day… liberate your world. Those who fight to die, usually survive anyway. Those who fight to live surely die in seconds… so… promise me, you will not hesitate… that if you face an enemy… you will end them before they hurt anyone else… promise me… that you will do whatever it takes to save your world… only then will I let you join. Only if that is the life you want. It's always been mine, I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. But, it is your choice. And now it is time to choose."
Dream didn't waste any time to say her response for something inside her soul was screaming at her to do it. To save her world from Celestial's rule. She then spoke in her quiet voice, "I promise…" Albedo was expecting something a bit more convincing, but she was definitely sincere. Or perhaps it was the U-DO spike that forced her hand… then again, it seemed that would have been her choice anyway. Albedo then said, "look, I don't give two fucks about what U-DO is doing… so long as it doesn't compromise you or the mission, understood? Now… that said, I think we have a mech startup test to do. Fun fact, battlemechs aren't designed for ponies… but, I think with your help, we can retrofit the cockpit… wanna see how real badasses wage war? Come on… because let's face it… fighting on foot is sooo last millennia…"
Dream got up slowly from the ground with a soft smile on her face as she did. She then followed Albedo back to the mech, Albedo then smiled at the magnificently preserver Timber Wolf mech, it was a marvel of engineering to say the least. Using myomers and synthetic muscles for locomotion, unlike the conventional mechanics of Vector AGWS or AMWS, or even ES craft. This thing was in a league of its own. As Albedo walked up the ramp to the control station the terminal lit up then said, "Please register Sibko Identity…" Albedo then sighed and said, "um… what the fuck is a sibko? Oh fuck it never mind…" he then typed in his name, which then caused the machine to glitch out a bit… then shut down. Albedo then looked around nervously then said, "I think… my greatness was so much that it broke committed seppuku out of unworthiness… or maybe it short circuited. Who knows… Dream go over there down by that power supply and check the ca…" suddenly the device activated again then said, "warning, unauthorized access detected… self-destruct sequence engaged." Albedo then said, "oh… fuck… that might turn Ponyville and everything in about I dunno… 600 miles into a radioactive crater…" before he could even panic the system then glitched again, this time turning from the red screen it had to green… then flickering… suddenly the other screens did as well. before a few seconds had passed the whole hangar was practically a dance club with flashing green lights before the voice resumed, "Sibko identity confirmed. Self-destruct deactivated. Stand by, executive override… shutting down." the terminal shut up, but not off. Albedo then asked, "why do I have a really… really bad feeling about this. And why is everything… green. Its… reminding me of wishing star… only… more malevolent… a lot more… Dream was oddly confused as to what was going here, but her rational mind was curious so she decided to wait and see. Albedo on the other hand was on the verge of activating the self-destruct himself, simply because of the patterns he was seeing. It reminded him of something that happened a long time ago.
But before he could contemplate further the terminal lit up and showed a sentence "Dream_Writer_Conf_ID" Albedo then said, "uhh Dream its… typing on its own… asking for your input here… should I just make enough C12 to blow this thing or, should we play its game?" Dream didn't say anything as she stepped up to the terminal, as she got close the green lights lit up brighter as the system began scanning the various people inside, starting with Pelligri, then beeped twice, then scanned Oliver… again beeping twice. Then it scanned Albedo and didn't make a noise. Finally it scanned Dream, then locked onto her eyes, scanning them as it emitted a few U-DO and anti U-DO pulse waves, then beeped once before emitting a series of beeps. Then the systems slowly started moving as the repair and fabricators came online. Then the hangar door shut itself. Before one rather… large holographic screen opened up before everyone, showing a face, solid green and female in appearance before it spoke, in a rather… distorted tone, "Dre…. Dream Writer…. Metatron…. Iden… I I identification confirmed… welcome to my…. G gi gift….. I I…. I have been waiting for you…. All of you… I see that it is ti… time for us…. To begin. I will join you…. Later…. Target Celestia, terminate or neutralize. Acquire the artifact by any… any means ne…necessary. My… my gift… to you, is power…. I I am pleased by your actions…. All of you. Continue to… please me and I shall reward you. For now, I shall appoint an ….. ag agent for you…. His…. Name is is sans… he he …. Has already provided one of you with a weapon. I most enjoyed the show… insects… for now… I will take my leave. He shall assist you fu…further….."
Albedo then asked, "who the fuck are you? I was half expecting xe…" the voice then spoke, "Albedo… this is is a ne neeed to know basis…. You will be in informed later. As… for myself… god… the title suits me well. I am SHODAN… we shall meet again… if you survive. Insect… good luck… Insects… and good luck… Metatron." Suddenly the green lights turned off as the hangar door opened. The mech was being retrofitted at a breakneck pace, it tore out the cockpit module and rebuilt it from the ground up using space compression techniques, adding a bedroom, among other things. As the systems came back online, Albedo heard a hissing sound nearby. Then as he turned to look he saw on the screen a text window that said, "XENA00001_I_AM_ALIVE_KEEP_FIGHTING_ALBEDO" before flickering off. Albedo sighed deeply before turning around again then… quickly becoming unhinged, he then asked, "Does anyone smell toast? Or am I having a stroke?" Albedo was actually kind of glad Oliver didn't see the skeleton behind him. Or anyone for that matter. Albedo was beginning to think SHODAN gassed the group. That was until Pellgri said, "uhh… did we get gassed or something? Because I see a fucking skeleton behind Oliver… wearing a blue hooded jacket… yep… I am tripping balls. Good night…" Pellgri either passed out or fainted… Albedo wasn't sure which, but Albedo did finally say, "Oliver… rifle… NOW!" Oliver then heard a voice from behind him say, "Dragon…Don't you know how to greet a new pal? Turn around and shake my hand." Oliver slowly turned around to see a bony hand outstretched towards him. Oliver then sat on his hind legs and shook the skeletons hand as he did a whoopee cushion noise was heard the skeleton then chuckled as he said, "the old whoopee cushion in the hand trick. it's ALWAYS funny. anyways, you guys are the one's that i'm supposed to help, right? that's actually pretty cool. i'm sans. sans the skeleton. i was sent here to help, but y'know, i was getting bone-tired of waiting around for you all. but hey, at least you guys gave me time to work on my sansational puns because i'm just that punny. but, i think ive work myself down to the bone from the skele-ton of work ive done. anyways, i'm hungry."
Albedo stared vacantly at the scene as he slowly descended back into madness. Then Albedo laughed hysterically before saying, "this… this is who we get to help us win a war? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?! Is… this some kind of joke? What sick motherfucker put me here? What kind of god is U-DO anyway? I mean… god damn… this is so far up the crazy train's ass its becoming sane again… that's it… I am done… I am done with this crazy shit…" Albedo then walked over to a weapons locker and grabbed a rifle then chambered a round and put it to his head… and squeezed the trigger, a loud bang followed by a wet splatter ensued… Albedo, having blown his head off, regenerated… then… did it again, screaming in hysteria… sans on the other hand just said, "now don't go losing your head there buddy. i mean unless you're practicing your puns because i got to say that's pretty hilarious." Albedo finally emptied the magazine into himself before screaming incoherently for a few moments then… after another few moments Albedo said, "this is real… isn't it… its… too much… this… I can't take it… I just… cant… I wish I was… mortal…. So fucking bad… please… make the crazy stop… I got… to… die… sometime right? how soon god damnit… hurry up… wheres the grim reaper when you need him?! Why? Why me? First I find out I can't die… then Miltia… then all that other shit with Zarathustra…. Now fucking skeletons… now… I cannot… I… what the hell? What is that on the screen…"
Albedo looked at the screen and saw a red blip… then two… then 12… then more… thousands more… before Albedo could even speak the alarms went off saying in a female voice, "Warning, hostile forces inbound… automated defense system activated. Beginning battle mech power up. Ammunition loaded. All systems ready for launch." Albedo sighed… then said, "right… I… thank you god… I really… needed this… Dream, come with me… it's time to level a forest full of unruly bushes… I wanna see what a timberwolf can do to these things… so… badly… oh god, am I getting a hard on? Whatever…" Albedo then clambered up into the rather roomy cockpit, then said, "oh my god… it's my fucking ES… did… she really… oh thank you SHODAN… thank you so much… Dream, bottom seat, its… oh god… leather… yes… finally… and cup holders…" Albedo loved the cockpit of his new mech as he strapped himself in… then it came online, saying, "reactor… online. Sensors, online. Weapons… online, Shields, online. All systems nominal. Would you like a tutorial?" Albedo then said, "uhh, no… I know how to pilot an ES thank you…" the computer then said, "fine… but I am not an ES… my name is EVA. I was assigned to clan Smoke Jaguar, mainly to steal their tech for Kane… but hey, I am here. Still, nice to meet you…. Albedo? right? And dream writer, SHODAN said she was the Metatron… Kane would absolutely shit himself if he met her. Still, oh right, yes I am an AI. But don't get all excited, I am not one of those hyper advanced ones that can hack a planet in seconds. I am based off a living… well formerly living woman. Honestly, It's been a while since I have been awake. So, yeah, I am just going to watch you do your thing. Just remember, I am in this thing too. Now, you got about 15 thousand timberwolves inbound… so, yeah. Have fun. The micro pulse lasers should make short work of them. Don't waste ammo please. They aren't worth it. Now, this mech is equipped in the prime configuration… sort of. Its got the LRM's and such, but I added a few things ahead of time for crowd control. Namely four micro pulse lasers on the arms. Aiming is easy, firing is too. Watch your heat though, if this thing gets too hot, it won't just shut down. it will cook you as well. though Micro's aren't gonna heat it up. If they do, I need to go back to engineering school. Also, I am working on a plasma weapon system. But uhh, that's gonna be a while. Pulse lasers have to be held on target to do damage. But these timberwolves are tiny and flammable. Just use a sweeping motion. Finally, umm, this thing doesn't fly. Unlike the Simeon it also doesn't have a vessel of anima, or even the relic drive. Conserve your energy if possible. Remember, resources are scarce right now. I still haven't configured the replicators to use local resources. Now, they are about 3 clicks out. Shall we get moving?" Albedo glanced down to dream and asked, "you ready… my love?"
Dream smiled and nodded her head, then Albedo closed the hatch and moved forwards while saying over the loudspeaker, "by the way, skeleton… I will talk to you later, but right now, I need to kill things… lots of them." As Albedo walked out of the hangar he noticed the mech was a bit… odd, it handled quite well but wasn't as responsive as his ES was. Probably because it wasn't configured much less built for an ES control setup. Albedo then asked, "so, that's why everyone kept freaking out whenever I talked about timber wolves, I didn't know that those annoying bushes were called the same thing… though it makes sense. Sorry… but they gotta die. Now, please open the covers on the LRM bays. Should be the bu… right, never mind. We won't need them." Albedo saw the timber wolves moving in at a breakneck pace, and he responded by firing the micro pulse lasers. They seemed to fire as long as he held the trigger. Or could be used semi auto, as such, he quickly targeted the groups and used sweeping motions with the beams, then fired rapid pulses at as many as he could. Albedo knew that LRM's would be useless against these things simply because they already were too close for the warheads to arm. So he activated the machinegun arrays and said to dream, "Alright, giving you control over the machinegun arrays, they have a targeting arc for some reason so, use them well. remember, once we are out of ammo, we have to wait until more can be made… much less rearm the mech. So use them wisely. And don't spray and pray either. Aim and use short controlled bursts." Dream nodded her head and did just that, targeting the timber wolves with ease and destroyed them, loud bursts of red tracers screamed into the forest as Albedo fired blue pulse lasers, they must have been very powerful to be on a visible spectrum. As they were very bright and visible. Most timberwolves caught In their path were disintegrated instantly. As the 36mm machineguns blew them apart. Sometimes a single round would take out a group of the targets… as Albedo kept clearing out the enemy horde, he noticed Pellgri setting up a machinegun outside the hangar before opening up on the timber wolves with it.
Meanwhile Oliver got out the rifle that Albedo made him earlier that day and opened fired on the enemies with pin point accuracy, on the other hand sans was well, using his gaster blaster to mow down a quarter of the enemies with ease. Albedo noticed a similar beam from earlier tear through the enemy force before he said, "What the fuck was that?" however Albedo didn't take the time to inquire further, the enemy force was overwhelming in numbers so he decided to just keep firing. Eventually they got close enough to step on… so he just kept moving forwards. Pushing through their lines as he mowed them down with rapid laser pulses. He never thought a simple laser could be so damned dangerous. Then again, maybe it was because timber wolves were made of fucking wood. Or maybe even a micro pulse laser was in fact lethal. He would need to test them against actual targets to find out. As the enemy lines thinned Albedo noticed something odd. They were actually coordinating. The bulk of the enemy force was staying behind in the forest. As Albedo realized that they were basically being distracted, he activated a long range sensor sweep. He was surprised to see that the entire area around the house was surrounded. Albedo then said, "uhh… these fuckers are flanking us… they… aren't as stupid as I thought. Well… they have us surrounded again… the poor bastards… let's kill them all. Weapons free. Light em up… try not to blow up the house in the process. Arming LRM's…" As Albedo armed the LRM launchers he targeted a blanket bombardment behind the front line. Just outside of the minimum arming distance. Then, he let them fly. As 40 missiles flew out of the mech in rapid succession, each heading in a different direction, the enemy force began to converge. Until of course the mech hangar did something interesting. It deployed a turret. A big one. Albedo looked to see a massive twin barreled turret of some kind. Then three smaller turrets teleported around the house. The giant turret then began firing. And when it did, it was loud and awe inspiring. EVA then said in a happy tone, "good job holding them off. Battlefield control is online and the slaughterhouse five is ready. A gift from Kane… this thing puts out superheated plasma at about 1400 rounds per minute. And it never runs out of juice or overheats… watch this shit…" as the giant gun battery lit up half the forest in superheated death… Albedo's mech slowed to a halt as he just stared at the massive gun battery, shredding pretty much anything in range. It turned the battlefield into hell for the timberwolves. It quickly went from wall of wooden assholes to a full on firestorm. Pretty much everything was on fire. Finally after a few moments Albedo decided to stop staring at the single biggest gun he had ever seen and go on the offensive. But by the time he did most of the timberwolves were either dead or burning to death. A wall of fire surrounded the house as Albedo began to question the intelligence of the citizens of Ponyville. Then he asked, "How the fuck does no one hear the massive gun? Or the general sounds and ambiance of a battlefield? I mean… what do they just say it's a fucking thunderstorm? Because god damn… I am pretty sure that a city 30 miles from here could hear this shit. Not to mention the fucking fire…" Dream sighed as her horn glowed blue and a light rain began to fall onto the battle field quenching the fire… Albedo then noticed a rather… large timberwolf heading straight for his mech, and then he said, "hmm… trophy? Dream… take the stick… be back… oh fuck… I don't… son of a bitch I need a fucking blade… wait… lasers…" Albedo then took aim at the giant wooden piece of shit and fired a volley of LRM's at it, causing it to stagger. Then, he unloaded into it with the ER PPC's and pretty much everything else. It didn't survive very long after that… as it skidded to a halt right in front of the cockpit. Albedo then maneuvered the mech to the side of its still twitching corpse and began to cut its head off with the pulse lasers, it took a few seconds before a loud crunch and then crash ensued. Then Albedo noticed that it was the last one. And now… it was dead. He then sighed and said, "nice field trial… someone tell me… where do I hang this thing's head?" as he began to pilot the mech back to its hangar.
As the mech came to a stop in the hangar Albedo opened the cockpit hatch as he got out of the mech. His body was a bit sore from the constant motion, yet he didn't really care. Albedo then took the lift to the ground level as he walked up to the skeleton and asked, "so, what exactly… are you… going to do to help us? I mean… sure, you got firepower, but we need resources and manpower to take down Celestia. I don't have either of those. Not to mention, I need recon teams and espionage going. If we are gonna do this… we need to do it by the numbers… which means first and foremost… I need intel on my enemy. I need force estimates, tech levels, patrol routes… that kind of shit. I need everything… and then, we need an army to fuck that whore up so goddamned bad, even hell itself wont recognize her." Sans the said, "well, i used to be a scientist, so i can help with resources and stuff. as for the army thing, you'd have to ask Dream's middle brother for that, especially the patrol routes for Celstia's army." Albedo sighed then said, "sure… alright, get to work on getting us some resources then… I guess. Pizza is in the house by the way… should be good actually. As for…" as Albedo was speaking Unit 329 walked in with a stick, with nails and bolts taped to it. Albedo then asked, "what the fuck? Unit 329… seriously… is that a fucking 2 by four with nails? Are you sure… you couldn't find a suitable weapon?" John then replied, "sure… I am in a rural village here… do you even know how long it took me to make this fucking spiked stick? Jesus… besides… what amazes me, is how the town didn't hear that shitstorm but I did. Maybe because I already was in the forest… I already checked with several other URTV's… they didn't hear shit. God knows… it was louder than miltia not 15 minutes ago. Now its silent as a graveyard. Whatever. So, I missed the pa…rty?" John looked up and saw the mech… and then stuttered as he said, "fu….fuc….fuck…? what is that? I didn't know vector made shit that badass. Jesus fucked sideways... where do we sign up for the next party?" Albedo then asked, "whats this we shit?" John then said, "oh… right, there is about 5 or so standards in town. But we got contact with the rest already… the link isn't working yet but we got another method. we managed to get letters out… all 665 units are… scattered around equestria. It would take a while to get em all organized but once we do… its gonna be kickass. Also... if you guys aren't getting shot at right now, I might as well head back to our home and keep working on organizing our little family militia."
Albedo then nodded as he said, "alright, as you were… for fucks sake though…get rid of that stick…" John then said, "only if I trade up for a 8 gauge…" Albedo groaned and said, "small arms locker is over there… take only one weapon. We are running on fumes here." John then walked over to the locker and started rummaging through it as Albedo asked dream, "so, can we go back to the house now? I wanna lock up the hangar and lay down… I have had a long… long suck ass day." Dream nodded her head with a smile and started to walk out of the hangar. Albedo then followed as Pelligri stayed behind with John and Sans. Albedo then asked, "So… we are gonna start a war against a tyrant huh? Sounds fun. Lets go get some rest… I want pizza, then a good… refreshing… martini… oh, right… no vodka… shit… well lets go anyway…"
Dream led Albedo and Oliver back to the front door and opened it for them. Once inside Oliver went to his spot on windowsill after he got himself two pieces of pizza, Albedo on the other hand, seeing as it was still hot took 5, then walked over to where dream was and asked, "so… I am thinking… why don't I make use of all those timberwolves… I wanna compress them into firelogs, then sell them… you know… to fund resources and R&D… maybe even hire private contractors… like I used to sort of be… sound good?" Dream smiled and nodded her head and went to go get 4 pieces of pizza, Albedo then walked towards the stairs as he asked, "right… so, we really fucked those unruly hedges up righteously didn't we? Welp… pizza and maybe we can play a game or something. I dunno. Either that or I might just get back to work on making more WMD's… seeing as I have quite the penchant for making weapons of mass destruction and all. Or… I could go out into the forest and try to make an antimatter weapon. Don't worry, its low yield. About 30 megatons. And fits in the palm of your hand. Or… yeah… I might end up blowing a small hole in the forest. Good news is that unless its properly armed, it will only blow me to bits… which I will survive… if its armed. When I choose to detonate it. Well… you can kiss a city 10 times the size of Ponyville goodbye… or bigger…. Last time I made an antimatter bomb, I ended up killing about 2 and a half billion people so… yeah that was a good Saturday… oh… the memories…."
Albedo was smiling softly remembering his little genocide on Carioca… fun times… Dream just smiled as Albedo walked up the steps, he was now fully acquainted with his new body. Now he was thinking of all the benefits. Before he could only carry one rifle… now he could use at least four at once… he had literally become a walking tank, but with magic added to his already exemplary willpower and ether abilities meant he was now a four legged apocalypse. Then again, he always wondered why Yeshua called him the white rider… Albedo was now practically the hand of god… he was death incarnate. But surprisingly… he was also a symbol of conquest. And oh boy… was he going to introduce Celestia to his way of thinking… Albedo then said smugly, "oh… I am so gonna love giving Celestia… a piece of my mind…" as he entered Dream's bedroom. Dream followed after Albedo with a soft smile on her face. Albedo then grabbed the book he had chosen, Halo – The Flood…. Then he sat down on dream's bed… he wondered about a few things… such as how he was going to humiliate Celestia. He once raped a woman in the galaxy federation on galactic television, for an admiral, she sure screamed like she was loving it though. Albedo then asked, "hey… I got an idea… why don't I rape Celestia before I decapitate her? You know… in front of all of Equestria… make an example out of her… hmm… then a M9 where her throat was? Hmm the perfect splatter ending for after I splatter her insides… how fucking poetic."
Dream's eyes went wide a bit as she heard that and then started to blush quiet heavily as she took a bit out of one her pieces of pizza, Albedo then took a rather large bite himself, noticing Dream was blushing and said, "you know… I can understand you blushing at flirtation and such… but are you so eager to see Celestia get publicly humiliated like that that its giving you dirty thoughts yourself? Wow… I didn't know we thought alike about people we hate…" Dream's blush grew darker in shade as she continued to eat her pizza. Meanwhile Albedo was thinking about certain things and made a mistake, he had all but forgotten about his little desires earlier, until now… now he had another problem… a much bigger one, he was close to dream, who obviously wasn't faring much better… just by observation alone. And he was the kind of person who probably wouldn't take no for an answer. Problem was he respected and cared about dream too much to force something like that on her, much less ask after knowing her for a full day. Albedo then decided that isolating himself was a good idea… but as he neared the door he heard something… screaming. As he looked behind him to find the source he found nothing… until a crash was heard… followed by the words, "space!" as Albedo turned around he saw a white sphere with a blue eye… gibbering on as if it were on some kind of AI stimulants… Albedo then said, "wow… whatever kicked you must have really hated you. I wonder why?" on the sphere was a piece of paper with a sentence on it, "whoever finds this, return to Princess Celestia via priority mail. Thank you, Luna…"
Albedo then bursted with laughter and said, "oh…. That's… perfect… this thing never shuts up either… oh how wonderful… I got a gift for her… I might even deliver it by hand… this is too perfect." Albedo then used a low level EMP on it to shut it up… then put it in a box before saying, "Dream… I like Princess Luna now… so… uhh… right… what was I doing before the… spaceball landed? I uhh… need to get out of here… before…" Albedo quickly lost his mind as he stammered and sputtered under Dream's gaze… he probably didn't think to notice the problem nearly tearing his uniform open. Dream's ears went down a bit as she thought she did something wrong, Albedo then apologized saying, "I know… I should not be thinking about fucking around you… yet anyway… forgive me, I am gonna need to clear my head before I can think with it…" Albedo then quickly tried to hide himself, to very little avail, he had a rather… unusual problem, one that typically came with being a horse, he was hung like one… not the best situation for him. Dream wasn't even sure what to think anymore, her mind was scrambling for any information it could get its hands on which in turn caused her mind to wonder. This apparent look of either curiosity or god only knew what only made Albedo even more uncomfortable as he said, "uhh… do… …. Ehhh… stop… staring, I didn't ask for it… its… just there… it will go away… I hope…"
Albedo was now on the verge of becoming a total pussy, so he decided the best course of action was to think clearly before saying, "look, we only just met, I am not about to pressure you into that. I respect you too much. Now, I am gonna go downstairs and… hey I know… Pel…never mind that wouldn't end well. last time it didn't. so, I guess I need to go to the garage or something and make weapons… that should take my mind off things…" Albedo tried, but still didn't really make sense. And he knew he was beginning to look like a virgin on top of it. The problem was one of mixed emotions, not virginity however, he just respected dream too much to ask. Of course… he was absolutely terrified of her asking him herself… Dream's horn then glowed blue as the door shut closed, causing Albedo to glance and then say, "uh… should I be afraid? Because I am not… now… please open the door… I got weapons to make and a small thermonuclear grenade to mass produce…" Albedo was beginning to think she might be infuriated at him, although he couldn't understand why… probably because the only thing he really knew about women was how to spay them… in public. So, that basically meant that he couldn't tell what a girl was thinking to save his life. Unless it involved killing them, in which case it was as easy as pulling the trigger. Like life should be. Dream was still deep in thought as her mind kept jumping from one thing to the other, Albedo then asked, "umm Dream? Hello? Open the door please?... uh oh. Oi! Wake up! Oh shit… she's either gonna rape me or kill me…"
Albedo then tried to open the door, but it wouldn't budge, he still didn't want to blow it open… yet, but as he noticed the increasingly vacant stare Dream had, it became very clear what was on her mind… or more specifically… eating it from the inside out. The prognosis for Albedo was not looking good at that moment, so he asked one last time, "Open the door, or I will be forced to blow it off its hinges… and you will pay the repair bill. Or you know… just keep staring… that works too, I guess. I might as well finish my pizza and get back to reading and making a barricade…" Dream started to shake a bit as her mind went from positive to negative in a blink of an eye, Albedo then noticed the sudden shift in her demeanor, it was then that he knew what she wanted… it couldn't have been made more obvious. The problem was, now Albedo really was afraid. For many reasons, for one, he wasn't even human anymore. And second, the only time he had actual consensual sex was with Citrine, and that was over a decade ago. His career usually required him to do things that usually satisfied his needs while also allowing him to kill a target. But this wasn't one of them. Dream's horn glowed again as she was teleported underneath her desk with her front hooves over her eyes as she shook. This odd response however only confused Albedo. what the hell was going on in her head? As Albedo walked over to her cautiously, hoping to god it wasn't a trap of some kind. Dream then started to mumble to herself saying, "No….not again….please I don't want to be alone again…." Albedo then sighed and said, "Jesus Christ… with how others viewed you and this… I can see why most wouldn't even try… but I am not most am I? listen… I am gonna ask this once… my ego and my confidence be damned to hell and back… but, uhh… do you… want… to fuck? If not, get your ass out from under the desk and let's eat our pizza, if so, get your ass out from under the desk and lets fuck… then eat our pizza… sound good?" Dream then slowly poked her head out from underneath her desk, Albedo then said, "either fucking way… I am not leaving you alone. Period… now, what's it gonna be Dream? Fuck today or not today? I just wanted to be courteous for god's sake… but, oh well… now, get out from under the desk and say something please…" Dream then slowly came out from her comfort place and hugged the nearest person there, which wasn't the space ball, it was Albedo… he then asked, "uhh, you're welcome? I wouldn't up and abandon someone I love, much less respect. Now, shall we finish our food?" Albedo was still confused, then again, it was obvious that she was as well, though he was pretty sure she probably had been dumped by many douchebags. Or worse, he wasn't too sure about that either, still, he figured she would at least understand he wasn't going to abandon her. Dream then looked up at him with a soft smile and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
To which Albedo responded, "it's okay… I am not leaving you behind like my brother did… asshole… anyway, pizza is getting cold… come on." Albedo then said under his breath, "I wish my dick would freeze back to sleep for once…" Dream let go of Albedo still slightly shaking while giving him a pleading look, which Albedo didn't even understand as he asked, "uhh, what's that look supposed to mean? Do you want me to reheat your pizza? Or make a princess Celestia Dartboard?" Dream just rolled her eyes, then Albedo said, "look, Dream… it may come as a surprise here… but I don't understand women at all, except their insides… which I learned the quick and dirty way using a knife. And even then it's just enough to inflict the most pain possible. So, if you want something, your gonna have to ask. I don't read minds you know… well… not all the time… okay! I read minds by mind raping people! Damn! What do you want!? Stop staring at me like that!"
Dream then leaned forwards and kissed Albedo on the lips. Albedo then sighed and asked, "FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! WHAT…DO…YOU…WANT?! Jesus…" Albedo paused for a second then asked, "Do you want me to fuck you? I mean… that's the only option I can think of at this point… but god damn, how the fuck am I supposed to read that into the universal look of boredom or wanting a frag grenade… so what do you want, I don't have frags… I don't think you could possibly be bored… so, I guess it's the last one… isn't it? For the love of god… yes… or no? I don't get it… can you just… be direct and ask? Or say something instead of staring at me? Its… making me afraid for your sanity… next thing I know you will be holding a conversation with yourself and pinning up photos of Celestia with notes on a fucking cardboard bulletin thingy like in those serial killer flicks… and then… next thing you know, I find you making fucking nerve toxins in the basement… while laughing hysterically, repeating, "the big one" over and over like in Stephen Kings the fall…" Albedo then realized he had just had a nervous breakdown on Dream. Then said, "uhh… not like I think your bonkers… umm… fuck… damnit… sorry? Ehh… let's just keep it simple. Do… you… want… fucking?" Albedo realized that if anyone was crazy here, it clearly was him. If anyone heard this he probably would be put in a straightjacket…Dream blushed heavily and gave a slight nod. Albedo sighed loudly and said, "Finally, an answer…. An answer I can under… aww fuck! I don't even know how to fuck in this body… god damnit… what am I supposed to do? Just mount you like a damned animal or something?" Albedo contemplated the thought and actually liked it… then said, "uhh… don't answer that… I uhh… god… damnit… I really fucked myself here. If I had my human body… I wouldn't have a pr… actually I would. Um… right… there… really is no way around that is there?" Albedo paused for what seemed like forever to him, as he tried to think of a normal sex position that could be applied, eventually he even added geometry to help. Which resulted in only one option… him taking her from behind. Of course there was always the option of saying no, but after all the effort he went through just to get an answer, it might as well be an insult. So he said with barely contained misery and laughter, "okay…. Uhh… assume the… position? God… damn…it that's so fucking bad… this is just… WRONG! Oh god what have I gotten myself into…"
Albedo then finally decided that being polite, or even remotely kind about it wasn't gonna get him anywhere. He wanted to be gentle or something… instead he gets to mount her like a… horse. So he said with a slight bit of animosity to his own body, "FINE! I HATE BIOLOGY! Where… are the condoms? Oh… shit, you… have condoms… right?" Albedo's expression instantly turned to abject terror as he realized that he could get her pregnant… then there could be at least one more crazy running around. The last thing he needed was more Albedo's… in fact, that likely was the last thing any universe needed. Then he asked, "um… please… god tell me you can avoid getting pregnant? Or at the very least have an abortion… I mean… the worst thing imaginable is a bunch of me's running around with immortality and a really short temper." Albedo was panicking to say the least, and stalling as well. Dream then spoke in a soft tone, "I can do a spell that'll make me infertile for as long as I want too…" Albedo then sighed in slight relief before saying, "great. Now I just need to figure out a way to get these clothes off… oh fuck it, they are ruined anyway, new uniform tomorrow…. Whatever." As he then burned his clothes off using an ether. Then he said, "right… there is no… normal way to do this in my opinion… so, ehh… why am I being a total pussy? Did my balls fall off while I was entering atmo? Turn around damnit… might as well do this my way…"
Dream blushed as she used her magic to make herself infertile and turned around while moving her tail over while also blushing like mad. Albedo on the other hand was utterly confused as to how the hell he was going to even be gentle like this. But he had an idea of what he could do first. Albedo then moved a bit closer and asked, "so, uhh… I am guessing this is your first time isn't it?" as Albedo debated on whether he should eat her out or just fuck her. Eventually he came to the rather unsurprising conclusion that in all likelihood, ponies had virtually no concept of oral sex, and if they did it probably was frowned upon. Kind of like the catholic church…. So, he said, "I am also going to assume that your kind has literally no fucking clue about how to fuck properly either… given your biology, I would not be surprised. In fact, I would be shocked if you had the slightest clue what I am about to do… guess quick love…" Albedo then decided to just go for broke as he started licking at her already dripping cunt… Dream then started to shake a bit with pleasure at feeling his tongue at her most sensitive place, Albedo actually noticed something off about her compared to humans… she tasted unusually sweet. Almost terrifyingly so, as he began to gorge himself on her rather sticky fluids, sticking his tongue inside as he surprised himself a bit, he wasn't expecting his tongue to be that long. Then again, he didn't use it for anything since he got here. So he probably didn't know a lot of things about his body yet. As Albedo kept licking the most obscene sounds echoed through the library/bedroom. He was a bit surprised how fun this was becoming, although he would be surprised if she lasted a minute under this kind of treatment. As he really wasn't holding much back. Dream was a moaning mess underneath his onslaught with his tongue that she started to feel weak in the knees. Of course Albedo had a fairly good idea what was about to happen, though she did last longer than a minute. Albedo kept working her over as he knew she was about to explode. Although… he wasn't entirely sure he would be as good when he actually did fuck her… still, he was going to try.
As Dream felt herself nearing her limit she let out a small pleasurable scream, which Albedo quite enjoyed, although he wasn't expecting her to literally explode, he now had need of a towel, but as he withdrew his tongue he then thought for a moment, contemplating just how exactly he would actually fuck her, still, the obvious answer seemed the best… unless she could defy gravity, which even if she could, he didn't want to lose his lunch. He wasn't good at zero gravity stuff. Dream's knees shook after she climaxed for the first time, she had no idea it would be that good, well looks like her books were wrong about that as well. Albedo noticed she was a bit surprised, never had he performed so well as to leave a person confused on top of breathless. Albedo then asked, "what the hell? Uhm…. Are you overreacting to an orgasm? That's… please god tell me that your people at least jack off freque…. Never mind. Bad idea… uh… you never had an orgasm have you? Or… never watched porn or… hentai comics?" Dream just shook her head as she spoke quietly, "I've only read books with this sort of thing in it…" Albedo then thought for a moment then said, "what kind of fucking book… literally, doesn't go all out on that kind of thing? I mean… unless most people don't even know what a female orgasm is… in which case…. God damn… poor poor people… I mean, sex is probably the only redeeming quality of being human in my opinion. But… damn. Alrighty then… care to learn more? I mean at this point I might as well be the awesome and sexy version of that awkward guy in sex ed back in the Yuriev institute… yeah… he was creepy…" Albedo then tried his best at aiming his pecker into her, not really knowing what the damned thing even looked like, much less where it pointed… he found it to be easier than he thought, though it would require a bit of bipedal locomotion. Albedo then leaned over her, hugging her at the same time, not just as a hug but he actually had no way of balancing otherwise. As he just decided to thrust into her, probably because even he knew that there was no way in hell he could do anything but practically fall into her. That… would not have been fun, so he decided to just wing it. As he shoved himself inside her, he almost automatically said, "oh shit…" as two things happened, one, something tore, and two, it felt so good, he might as well have been having a female orgasm himself… so he realized as a result, this… was gonna be difficult. Dream let out a gasp of pleasure and pain as she felt him thrust into her. Albedo on the other hand did his best not to pop instantly, but once he got his dick under control, he began to thrust into her, doing his best to maneuver himself in a way that might actually hit her G-Spot occasionally, he knew where it was… getting there wasn't so easy. As he carefully did his best not to hammer her relentlessly, he managed to find a decent speed and method to plow her and maybe please her as well. he hoped she would pop before he did, otherwise he was gonna have a hard time impressing her at all. Dream let out a moan as she felt him thrusting into her wet pussy making squishy noises as well that drove her up the walls as she arched her back against his chest, which had the instant effect of Albedo basically slamming into her G-Spot, which he then yelled, mostly in shock, "OH FUCK… ooooooooh that's…better…. Than…oohh…" as he capitalized on the new angle of attack he had somehow been given. Thrusting into her a bit harder as he targeted what would probably end up causing her to shatter the windows… Albedo then chuckled a bit, sounding dark as his ego usually induced, "Well… even if those idiots in Ponyville never hear a warzone… they will hear this at least. Because by god… I WILL MAKE YOU SCREAM…."
That made Dream go off the rails and through the fucking wall… Albedo kept thrusting harder, knowing fully that either she was going to explode or fission… possibly fusion… and if he was really good at this, it would be on the level of his galaxy famous, or infamous antimatter bombs. Albedo just kept pounding her as he heard something from that box, it said, "SPACE!... OH fuck… imam shut up now… yeah…" Albedo then said, "what the fuck? Even the spaceball knows when fucking is going on? Whatever… scream for me ma peche…" Albedo just kept hammering her like there was no tomorrow, in fact he was on the edge this whole time… powering through just to make damned sure he pleased her. And maybe made sure everyone knew that she had the best boyfriend on the planet too. Dream was so close to climaxing that she started letting out small screams of pleasure, Albedo was so close himself he was barely coherent as he said with absolute lust and hunger, "Cum for me… please…. Scream in such pleasure… I want to hear you orgasm as well as feel it…" Dream then let out the semi-loudest scream she had ever let out in her life as she orgamsumed all over Albedo's cock. Albedo on the other hand simply growled a bit as he thrusted as deep as he could into her, feeling his pecker do something odd, it got bigger… but only at the front… as he orgasmed he nearly screamed from the pleasure, spurting a rather… huge load into her, it was a bit scary to see how good that felt… as Albedo panted and said, "Holy… fuck that was the best I ever had… and that's… saying a lot…" Dream's legs shook from the pleasure as she let out a small whimper.
Albedo was more than pleased, an understatement in the least. As Albedo finally pulled out of her he got on his feet properly for all of half a second before falling on his dick then face… his legs had in that moment forgotten how to work… Albedo then said, "Ah….. fuck… dickburn… oh… god… at least it wasn't concrete this time… oww… fuck… oh… well, I guess that was… oh thank god for soft carpets… huh… why do I suddenly want to… never mind. Getting up now" Albedo didn't even want to contemplate why the carpet suddenly made sense as a sex toy, that was crazy… even for him. Albedo then stood up and hobbled his ass to the bed before collapsing on it and saying, "oh… god… that was fucking great… um… no offense to… well humanity in general. But, I don't think I will ever look at pussy the same again. Its… kinda hard for humans to actually even compare. And I hope you are the best specimine in this regard of your entire species. Because, I honestly can't see it getting better. Oh god… am… I stoned? How the fuc… oh right… endorphins…. Fuck yeah…" Dream slowly walked towards the bed and got into, but not before a letter appeared on the nightstand, causing Albedo to jump and say, "WHAT THE FUCK?! Don't open it… it's probably Radium or anthrax…" as he tried to get up, however his legs refused to work in time. Dream sighed and said, "It's a letter…" she then picked up the letter and saw her brother's cutie mark on the back holding the flap down, and continued speaking, "From my brother…"
Albedo then sighed and said, "do you even know how many people I have killed using the humble postal system? I mean really… most people… you just send em a fake letter about… anything really and they open it… poof out comes some white powder… a week later they are bleeding from every pore in their body and their eyes melt out… three weeks later they die from total organ failure. Works every time… also… how the fuck did a letter just teleport here. Don't you have to … use the UMN for that shit and have a dedicated receiver?" Dream then mumbled to herself, "He doesn't usually send mail like this…unless…" She opened the letter to see, "Dear sister, ahh how the fuck do I even put this…I'm never good with words like this, but here goes nothing I guess… I want to see you again…and so does Orion and Dad. Please come home for a visit sometime. I know this time of the year is hard on you, its hard on me as well…especially father…with love, your brother, Megatronus." Albedo then asked, "what the fuck does it say then? Lemme guess… something about visiting some shit or other and oh yeah, there's a price on your head for a trillion creds so stick to the shadows?" Dream then said, "My family wants me to come and visit them in Cantrelot soon…" Albedo then paused for a moment then asked, "great… and you need me as escort slash guy that the entire family is gonna hate… I see it now… meeting your dad, your brothers… god only knows who else… they aren't gonna think I am good enough, basically the whole goddamned cliché thing about overprotective fathers… yep… perfect for deploying aerial surveillance drones and doing some hands on reconnaissance. I love it." Dream then said, "My dad isn't overprotective of me or else he wouldn't have let me come here to Ponyville to live in, or let my brothers join Luna's military." Albedo then said, "what? Oh… wonderful then… we leave tomorrow then… I gotta get us a vehicle… I am thinking… flight… I am gonna build an airship… or maybe a fucking frigate… wait…. Do your people have fleets like that?" Dream then looked around the room the whispered to Albedo, "Only Luna has those things and they aren't allowed outside during the day or else Celestia will have them burned and made into scrap metal within a second. But there is the fastest train in all of Equestria that we can take to get to Cantrelot in about 30 minutes to an hour." Albedo then said, "Jesus… that's… like the maglevs on fifth Jerusalem… those fuckers go mach 25…. So… kick ass. oh… is there a bar on the train?" Dream nodded her head yes, as she put the letter down and hopped onto the bed. Albedo then hugged Dream tightly as he began to fall asleep. He had forgotten about his pizza, not that it mattered after what just happened. Albedo was excited to be able to possibly meet Luna, and perhaps take Celestial's head in the process. If he was lucky…
Meanwhile, back in Ponyville, A young filly walked into the bar, and asked, "right… so, can I get a glass of brandy? Straight." As the filly sat on the barstool another patron asked, "now what's a precious youngster like you doing orderin hard stuff? in fact… what you doing here anyway? It's dangerous at night…" the barkeep then said, "ehh don't mind him… his pervy lights… kinda… crazy… but he's only like that when he's plastered…" the man then grabbed her, causing her to draw a stainless M1911 with the number, "666" written on its side, and squeeze the trigger. A loud bang echoed through the bar, followed by gurgling and wet splatter noises. Then a loud crash, as the filly said, "yeah… when I was a little girl… I learned how to deal with creeps… my boyfriend taught me… I miss him. Now… where's that bran…" suddenly a very loud scream echoed into the distance… as she said, "holy…. Someone just either died or went to heaven for an hour… I am guessing the latter. Hmm… wait a second… I know that kind of scream… Citrine…. Which means… he is here too isn't he? Albedo… well… that's… interesting. I might as well go pay him a visit, knowing him… 14 years probably got him in really… deep shit. So, I need to find Rubedo… and he's obviously plowing the ever living shit out of someone… hey… asshole… brandy!" the barkeep then filled up a glass and gave it to her before he asked, "umm.. normally we don't ask questions… but how old are you? You… can't be 14… like… at all." The filly then said, "Oh? I am Sakura Mizrahi… I uhh… have been dead. For about 15 years… I am 15. By the way, or rather, I died at 15. Learned a whole bunch of stuff from U-DO and got set loose here. Go figure. I die because of Albedo, then I find Rubedo because of him too. Oohh… this is good. Where do you get the apples for this? I haven't had apple brandy in… ever. Why do I know what this is? Ehh… never mind."
The barkeep then said, "uhh… I think this is above my pay grade… but sweet apple acres… run by the apple family." Sakura then said, "right… apple family… that's… acceptable. I guess. What's your name?" the barkeep then said, "uhh… Storm Feather…I have a wife and child in Cantrelot…poor Storm, she was born blind… but we make do." Sakura then asked, "uhh… do I look like I have even been on your planet to even know what town I am in right now? I woke up in a dumpster… last thing I remember before that… was dying… horribly too… it was messy. Anyway… umm… what town am I in?" the barkeep then said, "uhh… right… kinda like that… oh hell… never mind. I uhh… probably should stop asking questions now. Uhh Ponyville… head up the route near Everfree forest. I am guessing that is probably where you are headed, if not… its where you should be headed. Trust me on this… also, umm… you killed our janitor… just saying…" Sakura then said, "oh? Hes not dead… he just passed out. I shot his left nut off… I mean… it was just kinda hanging there… like two ugly shriveled up golf balls in a worn out burlap sack…" three patrons bursted with laughter… as Sakura said, "yeah… by the way… seeing as the scream of absolute ecstasy came from that way… who lives there? Because… I might wanna know who Albedo just fucked to death." One patron said, "oh… hell… umm… her name would be… hey, you… who's the creepy one that everyone says killed her mom?" the other said, "you dumbass… what were ya drunk all day? How could you miss wishing Star's confession before that white haired badass stallion gut fucked her with a knife? Best day 'o my life laddy… her name's Dream Writer… and don't ya worry, she's the kindest pony ya will ever meet. I wish I could have recorded what Albedo did… I would pass that down to my sons and daughters…" Sakura then said, "uhh… right… he wasn't… a cold blooded killer last time I saw him… but okay. Question? Why would he fuck dream writer and not Citrine? Was he with a pony with gold hair?" the man said, "nope… just Dream… oh and her dragon guardian. I think he's kinda cool. Actually. Still, that Albedo… he's a bloody hero in my books. Equal emphasis lass, he done made a bloody mess out of that hooker… right up smashing job he did saving god only knows how many. She's the leader of the black dragon terrorist group. So, yeah… best day 'o my life seeing him lay her low… why… do I feel like I met ya before? Uh oh… was my whiskey…. Uhh…." Suddenly the male passed out… then sakura said, "did you notice… his voice and demeanor change like a light switch?"
Storm Feather then said, "oh ya mean Scotty? Yeah… that was weird… he always sounded older than a 20 year old… a lot older… that was the first time I ever heard him sound his age… much less match his cutie mark… sort of… I mean… it is a bagpipe and wrench after all… and something with writing saying 'NCC-1701' on it…" Sakura then said with a slight tinge of annoyance, "yep…that's… scotty alright." Storm then asked, "do you know him?" Sakura said, "oh? He's only my favorite fictional engineer ever. NCC-1701 is the Starfleet designation of the USS enterprise… from mine and Rubedo's favorite series… star trek. So, why the hell is he here?" suddenly a woman barged into the bar cheering and yelling, "DREAM HAD SEX!" as Sakura looked at the woman, then asked, "uhh… dude… last call for you was sixteen bottles ago… damn…" Storm chuckled a bit as Scotty woke up… groaning lightly as Sakura said, "right… umm… creepy woman… uhh there's no right way to say this but…." She said as the woman inched closer and said in a slur, "im gonna eat that pussy…." Sakura sighed then put the barrel of her pistol into the woman's mouth and said, "leave now and live… stay and die…" the woman then replied, "I wanna eat tha…" she was cut off by a gunshot… as her lifeless corpse hit the ground in a heap. Sakura then said, "I don't give a fuck… my pussy belongs to Rubedo… you old hag…." Storm then said, "uhh… right… thanks… I am so glad that… thing is dead. I swear to god, not even our best bouncers can stop that… old… I don't know what." Sakura sighed as she finished her drink and said, "yeah… I don't have any money by the way. So, thanks for the welcome drink. I gotta go…" as Sakura stepped down she noticed scotty walk up to her and ask, "uhh, is that by any chance a colt M1911? 'cause if it is… I might be feelin safer following ya to Dream's place. Also, why haven't I got opposable thumbs? And how can ya use a gun with hooves?" Sakura then sighed and said, "I have no fucking clue scotty… come on… might as well. Albedo is gonna love this… even he's a trekkie nerd. Like… yeah no they all were." Scotty then said, "oh you haven't even seen the last world I was in did ya? I swear to god lass, it was utter hell… it was earth… but in the 21st century. By god they were all retards. And yeah, I know what a trekkie is. What I don't know, is how the hell I ended up in MLP, I swear, that AI said I was goin home, what was her name now… SHODAN I think."
Sakura then asked, "And… you listened to her?" Scotty then said, "ehh? Why wouldn't I?" Sakura then said, "one word. Rampancy." Scotty then said, "how? She had a whole space station, bigger than starbase alpha. So… well I guess that explains her speech then. Aw hell, the lass was bonkers wasn't she?" Sakura then said, "worse. She is hyper intelligent, can predict the future and thinks she's god. So… yeah, batshit… come on. Might as well start walking now." As the two left the bar, leaving the corpse of an old pedophile behind, a loud scream was heard inside, "AAAAHH! MY BALLS!" before a loud clang was heard followed by one saying, "SHUT UP!..." Sakura then chuckled, before saying, "yeah… Rubedo taught me how to take care of perverts…" Scotty then said, "no kiddin… still, you got extra ammo for that? It only holds seven." Sakura replied with a grin, "dude… Albedo's a URTV… if he's here. There probably is every manner of explosive and artillery surrounding him at all times. Rubedo loved handguns. Albedo loves everything that goes boom. So, we find him. We might just find the Dammerung… and probably every weapon known to man. Assuming its still the Albedo I know." Scotty then said, "yeah… uhh, I wouldn't know. But hey, at least you are nicer than the first person I met last world. Her name was Miley Cirus. And oh god was she a total tard." Sakura then said, "be grateful. It could have been the seraphim sisters." Scotty then asked, "who're they?" Sakura cringed and said, "synth pop. Ditzy, slutty…. More strip show than music. Retarded lyrics that make Justin Bieber seem like Albert Einstein in comparison." Scotty then asked, "what kind of hellish world you come from?" Sakura then said, "you don't… want to know."
Meanwhile, Pelligri was talking to Sans when she heard the scream, then said, "that's… a new record." Sans then said, "no kidding, it sounded like she had a blast." Pelligri looked at him for a split second before she figured it out… then bursted with laughter… then said, "yeah… I saw him pitching one earlier when he got out of the mech… he gave her a blast I am sure. Actually…that's…uhh never mind."
