Len huffed as she ran, ducking under yet another rocket as it whizzed overhead hitting building in front of her. Even with her speed spell she wasn’t going to be outrunning her pursuers anytime soon. She knew she’d have to stop and deal with them eventually but for now she kept running. Another rocket impacted in front of her nearly knocking her down from the shock wave alone. She quickly ducked into a back alley.

“You’re doing pretty good so far mom, just wish you wouldn’t toy around with your food on the battlefield like this.” Said a slightly impatient Vanessa. “Oh hush, let mommy have her fun for a bit. I’ve been really busy lately and need a bit more fun in my life.” Len replied grinning as she saw three gryphons on either side of the alley way flying towards her at top speed. “Too easy.” She muttered.

She waited till they were in just the right spot then rocket jumped up onto a balcony hearing the satisfying sounds of both gryphons slamming into each other. She grinned down at the heap below her before dropping a grenade on top of them and rocket jumping onto the roof hearing multiple explosions going off below her.

“Seriously, you should try this out later sweetie, its totally awwwesome.” She said to her daughter as she took of running once more using her rockets to jump from roof top to roof top as she dodged more rockets and bullets. “Maybe, but first we still have to finish Project Anthro and prepare for the possible repercussions from the princesses remember?”

“Yeah, I haven't forgotten V.” She said as she pulled out a burst fire sniper and let three rounds fly free into one of the rocket gryphon’s gun causing it to explode killing three gryphons and leaving Len with only four more pursuers to kill. “And I’m sure Celestia won’t be to mad. Speaking of which, how goes the deployment?” She asked as she reflected a rocket with her shield spell into an oncoming group killing them.

“So far deployment is at 97%. Only The Crystal empire, Dragon nesting Grounds and Zebrica remain. Estimated time till deployment complete: three minutes fifteen seconds startiiinnng... now.”

Len grinned dropping down in the center of town pulling out her sword as she awaited the gryphons to land as well. “Excellent, in that case, I suppose I should hurry this up then. Give me like two minutes and I should be out.” She turned to the gryphons as they put away their guns and drew their own swords and axes. “Alright boys, let’s make this quick.” They growled and roared their battle cry as they charged at her all at once.

...

*Hiss*

The pod door opened allowing a grinning Len to step out feeling pretty happy with herself. “The simulation seems to work beautifully V, though I did notice a few bugs I’ll have to fix before you get your turn with it.” She stated as she stepped up to the console Vanessa was in front of.

“Fine by me, I prefer reality anyways.” V replied as she typed in a few commands bringing up a holographic image of planet Equis with red dots covering the planet. “The last few bombs have been placed and armed. We are officially ready to go on your command.”

“Good, and what of the secondary deployment?” She asked.

Vanessa punched in a few more commands and the red dots were replaced with purple dots. “The crates and Loaders are almost in position. in another three hours we should be fully ready to go.”

“One last thing, do you think Reaver is ready for phase two?”

Vanessa thought for a moment before sighing heavily. “Yeah, He’s ready, though are you sure about this? He seems way too shy and fragile of an AI. I doubt he’ll be of much use to us.” Vanessa complained. Len just giggled a bit putting a hand on her daughter’s shoulder.

“You’re worrying way to much V, besides, he’ll have his big sister to look after him. I’m sure he’ll do just fine.” Len smiled as she saw a small smile form on Vanessa’s lips. She was happy things were running so smoothly today and hoped that they’d continue to do so. “Now then, time to wake up your brother, today’s his big day and I just know he’ll be super excited.” Vanessa may not of believed the same but her mother’s enthusiasm was infectious and she just couldn’t help a genuine smile.

Len grabbed the AI from his housing station and made her way to her new lab station, a metal body already laying on the table. Unlike Vanessa’s this body had digitigrade legs and a milky brown coat color. Replacing the pony part of Vanessa’s design with diamond dog, he was almost completely identical to his sister excluding his head, body colors and wings choosing to go with dragon wings instead. It wore a similar attire to Vanessa with black wraps wrapped around its feet leaving its pads free rather than shoes and a shorter skirt. Len placed the AI into its new body before grinning as Reaver’s eyes opened for the first time.

“Good morning Reaver. How do you like your new body?” Len asked hopefully awaiting his answer but with all the patience of a proud mother. She was overly happy and excited but had to keep a much calmer demeanor than she wanted so badly to show.

“It’s... it feels... strange. Is that good?” He asked innocently with his light almost feminine sounding voice.

“Well, that's what your big sister said when she first got her new body so I’d assume so.” Len replied to the best of her ability. She had no idea what it must've been like to not have a body then suddenly have one.

“It feels like a good kind of strange though... I like it.” The urge to grin completely overtook her as she helped him off the table and onto his feet.

“Okay, you should adjust as we go along with your tests. We have to make sure you get all the functions down before we move on to evaluating your combat performance.” Len said as she pulled up a holo panel beside her monitoring him. “Now, first things first, walking. Let’s start with a lap around the lab and we’ll go from there, okay?” Reaver nodded before taking his first wobbly step, the first of many.

<Gryphon Territory, location: unknown>

Jax practically purred in delight as she slit another bandit’s throat before cleaving through another with her shadow scythe. “Keep searching, I must have those iridium shards no matter the cost.” She ordered to her troops. Gryphon soldiers tore the place apart in search of the shards while dealing with the occasional psycho.

Jax Strode over the bodies of her fallen enemies and her fallen soldiers without a care in the world. Another psycho ran up to her screaming and shooting wildly before being silenced with a single swing of her scythe. She stopped as she noticed an entrance in the distance that no one had stepped into yet. She could feel it, the shards were in there, calling out to her to come and claim them.

She grinned as she turned into her shadow form and slipped inside. Upon entering it was clear this would not be as easy as she had thought. badasses strolled around everywhere along with goliaths of all things and Nomads. She growled, furious with this new revelation. No matter what she threw at this she would fail in any attempt to clear this place, but her prize tempted her to try anyways.

In the very back surrounded by three super badasses sat her prize. a massive pile of iridium. If she could get her claws on that she would increase her power three times as much as she currently had. It would be necessary if she hoped to defeat the steadily growing strength of Len. Her spies reported back that the girl had suddenly become almost twice as powerful and had strange allies form other worlds to aid her.

Jax slowly creeped out of the cave before turning back into her solid state and growling as she walked back to join her troops. “We must leave, this place has what I want but it would be futile, not to mention suicidal to try and obtain it right now. I’m ordering a full retreat, for now at least.” She growled out.

A lone gryphon stepped to her holding a bag and handing it to her. She snatched it away from him before opening it to reveal a few shards of iridium. Her grin slowly returned before she placed the bag away. “Good work Captain. I believe a promotion is in order for all of your recent success. For now, we must still flee, before the enemy decides to come to us rather than continue to wait for us.” She said as she sprouted dark wings and took to the skies followed by her soldiers just as half of the badasses in the cave decided they were bored of waiting.

Jax looked at the bag in her inventory and grinned maliciously. At least it wasn’t all for nothing and with the few shards she had gotten she would at least stand a much better chance against Len should she have to fight her before she managed to obtain the cash of iridium at the bandit camp.

“Oh what a wonderful day for a slaughter and scheming. Those fools don’t even realize what they're up against but they shall soon find out. yes, in the end darkness always wins.”

<Castle of the Two Sisters>

Blood hummed as she looked over the colorful pendent Len had given her. It was meant to be a symbol of their love and, most importantly, a sign of their engagement. Of Course the others had one as well but that only made it that much more special to her. She was so happy that she didn’t even bother with her disguise and pranced down the hall with her head held high and a song in her heart.

“Morning Tia, Lulu.” She greeted warmly as she stepped into the dining hall for lunch. The two princesses immediately smiled and greeted her back letting a wave of love wash over the changeling causing her make an odd but cute screech and clicking sound as she fed. Blood could feel her mood skyrocketing from the wave of delicious emotions.

Both Princess let out a light giggle at their friend/mate’s behavior just as their food arrived. “Nice to see you’re doing so well today.” Said the princess of the night before taking her first bite.

“Yes you seem to be in a really good mood today. Still feeling the all light and bubbly form Len finally proposing to you I assume?” Celestia Inquired before doing the same. Blood sat beside Luna and took a bite of her own food as well before replying. “Oh yes, it is absolutely wonderful. I can’t seem to calm down now, I’m just too happy and spoiled with love.”

“I must agree, I have been feeling strangely happy ever since she proposed and it hasn’t died down in slightest ever since. It is simply far too much for me to handle alone. i do wish that Len wasn’t always so busy with her work so she could help us.” Luna purred out dreamily.

“Len’s work is usually very important, in fact, I believe she is working on something really big as we speak. Though what that is she wouldn’t say. She simply told me I’d know it when I see it.” Stated the changeling queen.

“Hmm, I wonder what she could have meant by that.” Celestia said taking another bite of her food before purring in delight. “Mmm, today’s meal is even better than ever before. I simply must give my regards to the cooks after this.” She happily declared. The others agreed and decided they’d do the same after they finished their meals.

<Len’s Secret Lab, Location: Unnamed Mountain 500 miles from the Everfree.>

Len smiled as she watched her personal bodyguard, Gun Storm, laying in a bed, her entire body changed by the same serum that made Len techno-organic. She had only been out for about an hour but Len could tell she wouldn’t be out for nearly as long as she had when she dosed herself.

“Great one, the final preparations are complete. We await your command and your presence oh great one.” Said a hydraksian. The anthro hydra awaited patiently kneeling before Len. Though she normally hated being treated so highly she had grown used to it when ti came to her hydra followers and just went with it when addressing them.

“Thank you, Minx. Watch over my friend here and alert em the moment their is a change in her condition. I shall head to the main labs and begin phase 2.” Len replied. Minx rose and and took up position guarding Gun Storm.Once Len made it to the main Labs she found her hydraksian fiance waiting to greet her at the door. She had recently learned that her people stopped using their three names once they were set to official forever bond with their life mate, as such, the hydraksian had chosen her new name already and was still feeling bubbly from being proposed to only yesterday.

“Hello Kara, glad to see you could join us.” Len said to her. All three heads simply smiled dreamily and wordlessly nodded. Len noted her change in attire, going from loincloths and bones to Leather, loincloths and bones, though where she had gotten the massive skull that sat on her right shoulder was beyond her. She also had to note that her clothing seemed to cover even less of her breasts. To top it all off and add to her already imposing yet alluring figure she now had a massive blade made from the bone of some very large animal with a serrated metal edge strapped to her back.

Len soon settled up next to Vanessa at the console form before overlooking a spinning hologram of Equis with Kara standing right behind them keeping a respectful distance. “Alright, it's finally time. Let's get everything in motion shall we.”

“Sure thing, Mother, just one moment.” Vanessa Punched in a few commands before a timer pulled up counting down from ten. Everyone eagerly waited as the seconds passed. Len felt a little bubbly herself as her little project was that much closer to to finishing. She had been planning this ever since she had been tasked with training the Equestrian soldiers almost two weeks ago. She would have taken less time to do this were not for the slowed production rate of the bombs after initial testing. Oh well, that was just the way things went for her. There was always some slight oversight or miscalculation to her plans, usually nothing too big but it was still annoying as shit for her.

The timer hit zero and a series of energy waves were suddenly emitted from the bombs covering the entire globe. The bombs themselves exploded into small singularities just too because Len didn’t like leaving her tech lying around for others to play with. After all, if anyone was gonna burn the world with her tech it was going to be Len herself giving out the orders.

Back with the princesses and Blood, they were trying their best to keep their heads about the whole thing, or at least Celestia was. They all knew who to blame for this incident but in all honesty even Celestia soon found herself a bit too engrossed and admiring her new body. She actually debated even being upset with Len as she touched her exceedingly thick ass, the results of her cake addiction she had recently obtained.

“Okay, I have to admit, this is by far Len’s best work yet.” Said a happy changeling queen as she gave toothy grin and caressed herself. “I mean, seriously, can’t even get mad with her with a body like this.”

Celestia had to tear herself away from her jiggly ass long enough to give a slight pout and voice her own opinions, a truly difficult task it would seem. “I’m still going to have a few choice words with her about this when she returns from wherever she has been for the last two weeks.” Despite how much she wanted to be mad she couldn’t help herself and soon found herself admiring her body once more. “Damn you cake, why did you have to curse me with such a thick frame.”
