It was a sunny day in Austin, Texas, extremely hot, even more so for a certain group of people who were cramped in a room with a ton of electronical devices, hard at "work" if you could call that.

Laughing your ass off and playing video games eight hours a day?

Check and check.

Welcome to Achievement Hunter. It was 8AM and they were waiting for some dumb

<<censored>>

who had the keys to open their office.

At 9AM they entered their office and were shellshocked. They simply stopped mid-step, not even letting out a single breath.

Before them was standing, at five metres tall, a tower of pimps the Tower of Pimps. The base was made out of black obsidian, where the rest was made out of gold, sixty four cubic metres of pure gold!

"What the shmuck?!" yelled Gavin, one of our protagonists and a member of Team Lads.

"There is a Tower of Pimps in our office?! What the hell?!" shouted Jack, a member of Team Gents

"I wouldn't be as much creeped out about the Tower as to why and how someone got in, they could be still in the building, let's call security!" said Ray, a member of Team Lads.

"Guys, I maybe was a half-assed electrician, but I know when something is a hazard, do you see those damned sparks?" warned them Michael, the last member of Team Lads. "Don't go near this, call someone for help."

"Maybe it has a switch somewhe- oh, here it is!" said Gavin as he walked around the tower and pressed a switch on the back of the obsidian tower.

"GAVIN!!" yelled almost everyone, as the tower started sending out more and more sparks, getting brighter and brighter...

...up until they all passed out.

The lands upon which soon would develop Equestria, six thousand years before the Golden Age of The Four Princesses

It was cold, oh so cold upon those damned lands! What was King Purewhite thinking when he said that there are gems here? We can't find anything for five hours! The diamond dogs can't find anything too, because of the temperature their noses are pretty much frozen!

Oh, just pray for a quick king change! The Griffon Kingdom rules the world along with the Minotaur Tribes and the Diamond Dog Dragon alliance, but it's the Griffons that dominate the lands along with the ponies protected by the Griffons.

A quick lesson of history would be that the countries were at war for countless thousands of years, until the Griffon Kingdom allied themselves with the Pony Herds, the griffons gave the ponies arms, and in exchange the equines helped with magical warfare and crops, which had to be stolen from the minotaurs because the griffon didn't know anything about farming back then.

Then suddenly, like that the war stopped. The minotaurs were afraid, so were the Dragons and Diamond Dogs. They were afraid of the supposed deities of ponies and griffons, and they overall military prowess. In reality, there were no deities. Up until two hundred years ago, that is, since the birth of the two pony deities, Princess Nebula and Prince Solar Wind.

Since then, those great countries are one, currently looking for new lands, but there are a few complications.

The ponies want to be free.

They were given a green light from all the races, after all, how powerful is a forced empire? Weak.

The ponies feel unsafe because the pony deities, alicorns, as they call themselves, decided to stay with the Great Empire, as the collection of race call themselves.

The griffons and diamond dogs we are with are scouting the area for gems and dangers, because the ponies want to settle there, unfortunately, the ponies being a very chaotic race, there was a seed of distrust between the three main races, while the 3 more uncommon races of ponies went to the other part of the world, that is, the zebras went to the far west, the horses went to the south, and the seaponies went to the east, to the ocean.

The crystal ponies and the batponies went far ahead, the crystal ponies stopping only at the north pole, where they felt safe, while the batponies stopped at the first home of the dragons, feeling at home.

The batponies were a hybrid of a dragon and a pony, after all.

A mistery are the snow ponies, but there are legends of them being corrupted by a terrible creature into the Windigoes, but this surely can't be true, can it?

Beyond the continent of Equestria, there was also the continent of the Arachnids. There were also other, uncharted continents surely inhabited by other beings.

Suddenly, the head of the scouting party, a white draconian by the name of Gaisras, tripped over a sticking out piece of a black material. He tripped because he was a draconian, differing from dragons, they were faster, smarter and had hotter fire, but were drastically smaller, the biggest draconian standing at mere five feet ten inches.

He got up, and grabbed the piece and started pulling. He became annoyed when he realised the object was stuck deep underground, he called to the diamond dogs to start digging and the griffons to help him pull.

After a lot of straining, they dug out a strange tower, the bottom was made out of unknown materials, but the rest? Four metres of gold! Of course, everything found belonged to the King. He paid more for the more they found. But that isn't the funny part.

The king was always under the gods, and when the King was clearly evil, he was thrown out of the stool. Many creatures were against Nebula and Solar Wind, waiting for a mistake all the time just to take the country from their filthy hooves. I was quoting a propaganda poster right now.

"Hey, you pricks, leave our Tower of Pimps alone or you shall learn the powers of the Fake Achievement Hunter Crew!" they heard a shout from somewhere, what they saw when they turned around, was shocking.

Six unknown creatures were standing there, armed with many weapons, their armor reaching up to their teeth.

The one that provoked them was flying over his comrades in a weird, green armor, the fact that he flew without any kind of wings was shocking. What was even more shocking was his mustache. It was so great!

There was one in a green hood with black spots, holding a bow the size of a fully grown stallion, in another hand holding three arrows, one between his index finger and the middle finger, another between his middle finger and the ring finger, and the third arrow between that finger and the pinky finger.

One of them wore a tuxedo, had a mask on his face, and held only a rose.

There was a very muscled one, with the the size of a pony's head, he could easily crush the draconian in a bear hug.

There was another one very much like him, smaller but with more visible muscle, wearing glasses and holding a very sharp, turquoise sword.

The last one wore a crown and a cape, dressed in royal clothes and holding a sword and a bow on his back, levitating like the one that shouted at them.

What was scary was the thickness of their armor, they were, as said before, armed to teeth.

Most of the diamond dogs already ran off.

"This statue now belongs to the King, prepare for death, spawn of Sleipnir!" shouted the dragon that stood at unimpressive five feet."

The fight lasted five minutes. Could have been about thirty seconds if not for the fact that Gaisras was being simply toyed with. He ran off with a few broken scales and destroyed pride, to tell the King and the deities of an upcoming danger.

The Great Empire and the ponies were surely in a danger.
