Pony Trek
Chapter 7: AGAIN BORG? REALLY?
Previous Chapter Next ChapterI was still space jumping over to the abandoned Miranda. I was still looking ahead, to notice the hangar was coming in fast. I slowed down a bit and hovered outside the hangar. I decided it wouldn't be fair to let Dark go in alone. I entered the hangar and slowly descended to the ground. My hooves touched the floor a little bit too fast. I fell over chuckled. I pulled myself off the floor and took a look around.
The hangar was a disaster. There were shuttles on fire everywhere and alamrs were going off. My helmet went down and I brought in some air. I regretted that idea, because the air I breathed in was smokey air. I saw Dark over near a door, waiting for me to get my flank over there. I galloped over there and got on the other side of the door. " Here's the plan" I said " We get to the bridge and check the ship's logs. Maybe the logs will have some information on what has happened."
Dark nodded and went through the door. Once we got through the door, his helmet came down. He continued down the hall, and I followed. While walking, I noticed writing on a wall. It looked like it was written out of blood. It said: ' TURN BACK NOW! THE THREAT YOU FACE IS THE BORG! THEY ARE MORE POWERFUL NOW! YOU MUS...." The message cut off there. The poor pony must've been dragged away by the borg. We turned a corner and nearly lost our lunch. There were dead ponies everywhere. I dropped to my Knees on my haunches and banged my hoof against the ground in frustration. I got up and decided to check one of the bodies. One of the disruptor burns was still hot. This pony was killed only minutes ago. I took out a flashlight and examined the ponies face. When I did that, I dropped the flashlight and cursed. The pony was assimilated. He had borg tech all over him. I touched his face and he jerked. I jumped back and slammed into a wall. The drone got up and aimed a disruptor hoof thing at me. I rushed forward and pushed him against a wall. I held both of hois hooves back while also kneeing him. He threw me off of him and shook his head.
I fell to the ground, but instantly got back up. I rushed him again, this time, giving him a good hoof to the face. The drone dropped to the ground, lifeless. I stepped back and took a deep breath. I looked to my right and saw Dark examining a computer log. on the computer log I saw ponies running for their lives, Borg drones shooting like mad, and something odd. I saw my ship come out of warp in a window. Just then, the log went to static. Dark cursed and Pressed onward. The next five minutes were unusually quiet.
There was only the sound of fire crackling and wires sparking. Our hooves made deep clopping sounds on the metal floor. We turned down another corridor where we found a sign that led to the bridge. We followed it until we arrived at a turbo lift.
We entered the turbo lift and something came over the intercom. What started playing sent chills down our back.
The song that started playing,
We both looked at eachother with worried expressions. Dark gukped and pressed the button that said " BRIDGE". On our way up to the bridge, the elevator broke down. It became very dark. We both started shaking in fear. The lights came back on, and our journey continued.
I heard a ding and the door opened. The lights were on in the bridge, so we sighed in relief. We both out on a poker face like this:
We walked out of the turbo lift and our poker faces faded. What we saw could never be described. It was the most horrifying, gruesome stuff you could ever imagine. There were a bunch of dead ponies, all being assimilated by the borg.
I cracked my hooves and closed my eyes. I was about to call upon the power of the great gods of strike. I opened my eyes a grinned. My anger was focused and I was in control of almost everything. The borg started walking towards us. Dark started charging up his hooves. I motioned for him to stand down. I began to chant: " OH MEH USTE TE TO POWAH TYE STRIKE!" My voice echoed across the room, blowing many borg drones back.
I felt the power of One million ponies inside of me. Two swords made of lightning appeared in my hooves. A borg charged me, but he was too late. I ran up and sliced him in half, leaving blood on my hooves and face. More borg started charging. I rested my swords on the ground, waiting for them to strike.
My ear twitched and in an instant I had cut one Drone open. The others continued their press. My refelxes were too good for them. I swung my swords around behind me, killing two drones. I ducked down, and brought my swords' upward and slicing three drones. I started spinning my swords in circles, killing more drones than anyony ever, could. I stopped spinning my swords and grinned. All the drones were still there. Suddenly, the drones started to slide apart, fallng onto the floor. I then looked towards what looked like the leader. I threw one sword down and waited. The leader must've gotten curious of what I was doing, so he let his guard down.
He made the wrong choice. I ran and jumped up and over a console. Everything went in slow motion. My sword drew closer and closer to the leader's face. My sword pierced his face in super slow-motion, making blood go everywhere. Time went normal again, and all the borg were dead. My swords vanished and I felt normal. I turned around and saw the borg leader still alive.
I went over to his face and gave him a grin. I shoved my hoof into his face, killing him instantly. I heard a gasp and I instantly knew why. I turned around just in time to see another drone, about to sink a fluid into my body. I caught his hoof, but he was overpowering me. The shot drew closer to my neck. It got a bit too close, and the fluid was being injected into me.
" AAAAGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" I cried out. the drone took the shot out, but then Dark shot the drone with atleast 15000 volts of electricity. The drone fell dead to the floor, and made a thud as it hut the floor.
Dark rushed over to me and put his tricorder near my chest. He winced when he saw something on the tricorder screen.
" Awww crap" Dark muttered. " Looks like that THING injected you with some sort of borg fluid that'll chang you into a borg." I stood up shakily and took a deep breath.
" We are the borg, lower your shields and surrender your ship. We will add your biological and prepelogical distingtivness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile. I said in pain and some sort of weird voice.
I grasped my head and started beating myself. " AAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" I cried out. " GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" I fell onto the floor and started spazzing out. Dark bent over me and started shaking me. " SNAP OUT OF IT!" Dark yelled.
I returned to normal and Dark looked at me funny. " Yo Lightning?" Dark said " You alright?". " Never better" I said. I got up and cracked my back.
I pressed my comunicator and spoke into it " Away team to STRIKE, Two to beam back" " one moment captain" I heard Rainbow Dash say. " We're still havin a bit of trouble with it." I sighed. A blue ring started to form around us and we started to change environments.
I found myself standing in the transporter room of my ship. I grinned and walked off the pad.
What i'm hearing in my head: " TIME TO ASSIMILATE MY YOUNG DRONE!" The queen of the borg commanded.
