I sat up in bed looking around me. I didn't dream... again. All I could think about was how fucked up it was how David gets two princesses?! Did anyone else hear them besides me and Niko? Celestia's cool with it! I thought this was Equestria not... West Virginia!

"Are you okay?" asked Vinyl.

"I'm fine. Just thinking hard."

"About what?"

The entire castle had a more... technological sense to it...

"Did the castle get upgrades?" I asked her.

"Yeah! The ponies in the engineering fields have put up computers everywhere and holograms and..." I put my hoof on her mouth.

"Alright. When was this?"

"Yesterday." It must be related to that jet we hijacked. "Want to check it out?"

"Yeah." I got up and didn't change out of my pajamas. Yep. I'm the only guy walking around in white and blue striped pj's.

"Hello Bass." said one of the scientist ponies. She was a redhead and had glasses. Nerd...
[Nerd!] yelled Beta.
<Don't do it! Remember Revenge of the Nerds?>
{Oh god... I hope Vinyl doesn't cheat on me with a nerd.}
[Aren't we nerds?]
{No. We're geeks. Their is a difference.}

"Hello..."

"Dr. Gigabyte."

"I'm gonna call you Giga. What's going on?"

"We made so many discoveries with the technology you brought from Nightmare's Lair." Aw... That's cute. They came up with the perfect name for a bitch!

"Cool. So just computers?"

"No. We got weapons and vehicles and..."

"Keep it simple."

"We got more things."

"Thank you." I left the room with Vinyl.

"What do you think?" she asked.

"I've seen enough technology from Earth."

"Is it that similar?"

"Yeah but less destruction. Hey Vinyl... want to check out something with me?"

"Sure! What is it?" I grabbed her hoof and went to Octavia's room. She was sleeping on her bed and we tip-toed to her closet. Inside was a hidden button which opened a back room.

"Whisper. I built a secret back room."

"When was this?"

"Last week." We went inside and closed the door behind us. "We can speak louder now. Soundproof and it has a magic cloaking spell so the princesses can't tell where we are."

"The princesses?"

"That's where we are going. I need to check on something." We walked down the tunnel into we got to a one way mirror. I replaced the dressing mirror with this.

[Oh... Sneaky a duh monkey.]
<You no speak Chinese!>
{Dede mow!}
[What's that?]
{It's Vietnamese for 'Get lost.'}
<My feelings...>

"What are we looking for... Oh my lord!" cried Vinyl. We watched as David had a little... three-way going on.

"Oh no! It's true!"

[My eyes! They can't look away!]
<Beta no!>
[It's too late for me... I'm losing it...]
{Just hold on. I'm getting us out of here.}
[What has been seen can not be unseen.]

"That's Macbeth." said Vinyl. If you don't remember she can see Alpha and Beta.

"It is. Let's go!" We went up the hall unto a blue door with a double quaver on it. "Here we go. Our room."

"Jeez... What did we see?"

"Nothing. Absolutely nothing!" I opened the door and we both fell from the roof onto our beds. "Forgot to move it behind the closet."

"That was fun!" She closed the door with her magic. "Well... mostly anyways."

Meanwhile...

Octavia didn't move from her bed but her eyes were wide awake.

"I think their is someone in my room..." she said quietly.

David's POV

I sat in bed with my two beautiful woman at my side.

"Did he think we wouldn't find out about his tunnel?" asked Luna.

"Let him have his fun." said Celestia.

"I want him to watch." I told them. "It totally messes with him. Or... Beta at least."

"Hmm... Well played." said Celestia.

Dustin's POV

I spent the bast 5 hours having a bad dream. The dream was that Beta went into shock so Alpha and I were doctors and we had to bring him back.

"Scalpel." I asked Alpha.

"Here." He handed it to me.

"Hammer and nails."

"Take this."

"Drill."

"Plugged in."

"Well... nurse. It's official. We made it worse." We both looked at the mutated body on the table. "How did he go into shock anyways?"

"He saw the princesses and a friend all having sex at the same time."

"Ah... then why didn't we use a forget me spell?"

"That's a good question." We both remained quiet.

"Alright. Nurse Jackie! Another dead body!" Niko walked in wearing a dress and carried the body to the morgue.

I woke up and stretched. Alpha did the same. Beta was... rocking back and forth in the fetal position. He stared at both of us like we wanted to murder him.

<What's the matter with me? Do you need a hospital?>
[NO! Dustin! Don't make me go!]
{Than forget what we saw!}
<We can do that. Remember Beta?>
[Do it before David goes back in our head. I don't want that happening again.}

I lifted Vinyl off of me and went the restroom. I hope today ends up... better than before.

40 minutes later

We all, and be we I mean me and my friends and all the guards, waited outside.

"So this new vehicle." said Celestia describing the carrier jet "Will be used for the guards who can't fly or want the drop on the enemy. Our very own Bass shall test it out."

[Oh fuck... What did I tell you?!]
{What did you tell me?}
[Uh... shut up!]
<It can't be that bad.>

We got in the cockpit and Niko got in the back.

"All right. Go high and then I'll test out dropping." He said. I keep forgetting... Niko is a pegasus. Why are there no Earth ponies from Earth? Honestly. What's wrong with Earth ponies? I mean... I'm happier as a unicorn but... seriously.

We went in the air and Niko opened the back door.

"Keep it steady." As soon as he said that he jinxed us. The helicopter started spinning in circles and losing control. "What the fuck did you do?!"

"I don't fMEOWking know!"

"Learn to fly!" We crashed in the woods and crawled out. "God dammit!"

"What happened back their?" I felt the magic scroll in my pocket start vibrating. I opened it and read it out loud. "Cheers! ~ Hard Break."

"That bitch! When we upgraded she must have gotten in the system!"

"We got to stop her before it gets out of hand." Niko flew and I summoned my guitar and turned it to the motorcycle, this time with wheels, and drove back.

[How did she get in?]
{The tech we stole! She must still have access to it!}
<Let's talk to Giga. She might know.>

We went to the lab.

"Gigabyte! I need help!"

"What did you do? We lost control of everything!" cried a redheaded pony on my left. Another redhead walked towards me on my right.

"Sorry about Megabyte. She's a little... high strung."

"Answer me. What do we do to stop Break?"

"Someone gets inside and stops her program from the inside."

"Oh... that's not good."

3 minutes later

"No! Let me go!" Niko and David strapped me down on a chair.

"You need to fix this." said Niko.

"Why me?"

"Because your the best with technology." said David.

"Yeah! That's a reason to keep me alive!"

"Whatever." Niko hit me upside the head with a hammer making me see only 1's and 0's. They circle around me and sent me inside the world.

"Whoa! It's so... tron?" We watched all the memory flow through the system.
[Uh... this is new?] I looked to my shoulders and saw that Beta had a white suit with blue highlights and Alpha had a black suit with red highlights. I had a white suit with red. How adorable!

"This is... sweet actually."
<Don't enjoy this.>
"Why can't I summon my guitar?"

On the outside

The Clementine went through the wall and knocked down Niko.

"Uh oh. He's trying to summon it inside the computer." said David. "Quick... Byte. Get download a weapon."

"I'll try." she ran to her computer.

inside

"What's happening?"
[I don't know! They must have blasted our sub-consciousnesses into the computer.]
{That's just great! So if we die in here...}
<We die for real.>

"Hold your hoof out." said Byte in an echo-y voice.

"Why? Whoa!" I had a blue cannon on my arm. "Is this a mega buster?"

"A what?" They don't know what Megaman is? Oh... IT... IS... ON!

"Nothing Byte. Tell me where to go."

"Go to the firewall. It's blocking the system where Break should be in."

"What does it look like?"

"See the big orange wall on fire?"

"Oh... yeah?"

"There you go dumb nuts."

"Aw..." I ran forward unto a group of Shadow programs came at me. They looked like griffons and ponies.

"Stop him!" said Break.

"Where did you get this technology Break?" I asked her.

"From home."

"Your a human?" One of the programs shot at me but I took cover.

"Oh so you know more about me than I do you Dustin."

"And yet here I am!" I took a few shots and killed the Shadows. "Look at that! I'm shooting yellow lemons like in the old Megaman X games!"

"Your so old-fashioned." said David and Niko on the intercom.

"Damn kids and their new current games." I ran around some corners and looked at the long narrow hall. "If this is tron than can I just use a light cycle?"

"No. We don't have those." said David.

"Fine. Look's like I'm booking it." I continued walking until an old pony appeared directly ahead of me with a bridge.

"Let's see you beat the gate keeper!" yelled Break with a manacle laugh.

"To pass the bridge and you three you must answer my questions three." said the old hermit. He can see Alpha and Beta? "First. What... is your name?"

"Dustin."
<Alpha.>
[Beta.]

"Good. Second... what... is your quest?"

"To stop Break from controlling all of our systems inside the castle."

"Excellent. Third... what... is your favorite color?"

<Red!>
[Blue!]
"Green."

"Oh... okay you can pass."

"Huh... thank you very much." I walked past him on made my way across the old wooden bridge.

INTERMISSION!

I continued walking across until I got to the end.

"Yay! I did it!"

"You haven't won yet!" yelled a younger male.

"Who is this?"

"This is Dark Night!"

"Oh! Your that little guy who ran away with Iron right?"

"Don't call me little!" He summoned a large black demonic figure in front of me. When it turned and looked at me it glowed red.

"Fffuuu-"
[Fffuuu-]
<Fffuuu->

"Yes you are fucked!" We all jumped. "Shit out of luck! I am complete and my cock you will suck! This world is will be mine! And your first in line! You came to this realm and you must now die!"

"Sorry bud. I've listened to every Tenacious D song out there and I know your weakness!" I charged the mega buster and shot of his horn.

"Ow! My fucking horn! Oh no!"

"Return to where you came! Until you are complete again!"

"Nnnoooo!" He stated falling into the abyss he crawled out of. "Fuck you Dustin! And fuck you Megaman! I'll get you ponies!" The hole closed leaving us in awe.

[We killed the devil?]
<Damn.>

I walked to the firewall and was intercepted by a large fire program. It took the from of an alicorn eating nachos.

"Who in the bloody hell are you?"

"Uh... I'm that one guy... can I get some nachos?"

"Wank of. These are mine."

"Aw you sorry excuse for a nutter. Do you know who your talking to?"

"Your that Dustin right?"

"Yeah."

"Good to meat you. I'm Eternal Light. These Nightmare assholes put me inside the computer and make me upgrade there systems."

"How about you come work for us?"

"Sounds good and all but I can't leave till Break is taken care of."

"Drop the firewall and I'll kill her."

"Deal! Good luck man!" He disappeared with the firewall leaving a box of nachos on the floor with me.

"*sniff* It's beautiful." I sat down to take a break and munch on the chips. Cheesy goodness.
[Sounds cheesy to me.]
<Aw... you beat me to it.>
{Hey Alpha. What do you call cheese that isn't yours?}
<Nacho cheese.>
{... Party pooper.}

"Why haven't you face me yet?" asked Break.

"Because I'm enjoying myself!"

"Well hurry up." I ate the nachos as slow as I could. "Your just a jerk." the box blew up in front of me.

"My nachos!"

"Face me!"

"Fine!" I ran up the ramp.

"Alright Bass." said Byte on the intercom. "Those tubes are sending all the memory to the area ahead of you. It's definitely a trap."

"You don't know how to comfort people do you?" I asked.

"Okay. I know you'll win... I hope."

"There you go again." I made my way up and met Break and Night head on.

"So the brave idiot finally makes his way to his death." said Break.

"What? You mad bro?"

"That you made me hate Iron!" She shot a series of spikes at me.

"Beta Zone!" The arm cannon shot out a giant shield which evaporated her spikes.

"Nice reflexes." said Night. "But in here we can do what we want." He flew up in the sky and a large light filled the air.

"Uh oh..."

"Now die!" He came down in the appearance of a dragon with a sword. I dodged to my left and grabbed Break as a human shield.

"Now back off before she gets it!" I held the cannon to her head and she left. In the top left corner of my eye it said 'Heavy Break has left the game.'

"Where were we?" asked Night.

"Guys! Wanna help?"

"I'm trying! It's a lot harder than it looks." said Niko.

"Just type in the konami code!"

"What?"

"↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A!"

"Okay... nothing happened."

"You probably did it wrong."

"No!"

"Do it again. ↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A!" I yelled ducking the sword swipe.

"Nothing's happening!"

"You can't cheat in this world!" yelled Night. "I know every inch of this domain and you are just a virus. I can kill you right now."

"That's fine. In the real world your just a bitch with a keyboard." He raised his sword high and brought it down. I stepped left and the sword got stuck in the floor.

"Damn." I jumped on his arm. "What are you doing?" I got on his back and shot him in the head a few times with the buster. When I was done all the circuitry was showing. I reached in hoping to find his memory chip.

"Hold still damn it!" I yelled at him.

"Don't touch that! No! Stop!" I grabbed the back wires and pulled them out sending him onto the floor unconscious. "Damn you!"

"Aha! Got the chip! With this I can find out your bug's location and destroy it."

'Dark Night has left the game.' was what appeared.

"Byte what can you do with this chip?"

"So much! I can terminate our transmission with Nightmare's army and I can destroy the bug. Or we could turn the bug onto our side and send it to their system."

"Do it." I felt a warm light surround my body and I awoke in the real world. "God... What the..." I held my hooves out and tried to squint my eyes. It was... harder to see. "Why can't I see so well?"

"Hibernation sickness." said Gigabyte.

"Well that's perfect. Sight I have a pair of glasses in my room-" I was cut off when he teleported them right in front of me. "Or just give them to me now."

"You had us worried their..." said Celestia.

"Don't be. You have full control again." I looked in my right hoof. "Well there's my guitar. Where were you when I needed you?"
[Hey... we tried.]
<I didn't get to do much.>
{Don't think like that. We haven't had to fight someone that's super strong yet so be thankful.}

Meanwhile...

"Damn!" cried Nightmare slamming her fist on the table. "One pony. Just one!"

"We're sorry ma'am." said Night. He was beside Break bowing on the floor. Nightmare threw a book at him.

"I didn't say you could speak! You couldn't beat one pony inside a virtual reality. Think about the army they've built up!"

"Ma'am." said Iron. "We have it under control."

"Look. We watch our resources and we build up our army. Are the dragons ready to go?"

"Yes ma'am." said Break.

"Good. We have one good thing to think about. Dismissed." The three leaders walked out of the room. "*sigh" What to do. What to do. Hmm..."
