Fall of Equestria: Outbreak
Chapter 3: A Passing Through Time
Previous Chapter Next ChapterIt has been several weeks since Canterlot has been invaded, and now The Crystal Empire has been captured along with all other towns and cities that weren't dominated before. Even Cloudsdale is in the hands of the Caribou Empire... And two creatures have been on a little conquest of their own... Every now and then, somepony would go missing. A guard here, a female there, but it was only small enough of disappearances that no one really took too much of a notice. Either that, or Dainn would claim that it was nothing dispite him never seeming comfortable in his conquered castle. He would frequently make appearances at other towns and spend the night there with mares under his arms, but some would claim that Dainn would never bed with a mare in Canterlot. And he's constantly looking around himself and checking the ceilings like something was after him. But he didn't know that it held no interest in him, and it had other plans. Especially with a shipment that came in just today...
Right now, the Caribou born is sneaking around a storage room in Canterlot. It has its sights set on a large enclosed metal wagon that contains crystal pony mares, and all of them were very healthy. Healthy enough to bring to the Tarkatan born, as its been thinking about gaining a new addition. The Caribou born listens around, and hears talking happen on the other side of the container. It silently crawls onto the container, and looks inside. The container only has one window, and iron the side with the window. Through this window it sees several shiny females that are all restrained by collars that are chained to the ceiling. There's another female in there, and it's a female Caribou with "Dainn's Personal Property" tattooed onto her chest. She isn't very healthy, and is also pregnant with multiple children. The Caribou born looks around for a door to open, just like the ones the Tarkatan born has shown it. It checks the roof, and finds an entrance there. It's dark enough to not be seen as it crawls to the roof of the container, puts its face in front of the opening, and let's off a drop of drool onto a lock that would make it difficult to open the door. The acidic saliva melts the lock enough for the Xeno to remove the lock with its inner mouth, it opens the door, and jumps down into the container.
"WHAT IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS MAGIC IS THAT!?"
"HELP!! HELP!! THERE'S SOMETHING INPONY IN HERE!!"
"HELP US, AND I SWEAR I'LL SUBMIT!!!"
There are other mares crying out in fear... But it doesn't matter as the Caribou born tears its way through every mare, taking chunks out with its inner mouth, clawing one open, stabbing them with its antlers and tail. Then it stops at the final two females, the healthiest Crystal pony mare, and the unhealthy Caribou female.
"... W-what are you? W-why do you look like my kind?" The Caribou female asks, the Xeno focusing on her.
*hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisss*
"If you're going to kill me, then do it. I have nothing to live for."
The Caribou born charges stabs the pregnant Caribou's torso with its antlers, impales the abdomen with its tail, lifts her in the air, and pulls away until the pregnant Caribou rips in half. The Xeno then changes its attention to the last female, who's too scared to speak a word. The Xeno grabs the shiny female, and exits the container the way it came. It's holding the crystal mare by its tail while keeping a hand over her mouth to keep her silent. It walks back to the wall it came down on, and disappears with the mare.
A Caribou in a fancy suit opens up a door to reveal to Dainn's representative his new exo crop of females. Crystal Mares, fresh from the Crystal Empire, along with the female Caribou whore that is to birth Dainn's children. He was going to have the growth of his children accelerated so they can be mighty individuals enhanced by magic! They'll be powerful enough to stop anything that gets in his way! The Caribou proudly opens the side entrance into the wagon to reveal blood painted walls, several removed body parts, and Dainn's prized Caribou female torn in half with stab wounds all throughout her torso. However, there's a Crystal Mare missing. The bloody sight causes the dealer to pass out from the sight, and Dainn's representative slits the dealer's throat with a knife.
"I'm sorry, but Dainn said no witnesses except permanent staff." Dainn's representative says in a cold tone. The sale didn't happen, and he's lucky that that dealer was an independent dealer. Otherwise, there'd be more to explain...
The Caribou born is where the Tarkatan born was going to wait for it. The Tarkatan born makes its appearance show up, and its bigger than before. It's now ten feet tall, has bigger everything, is now developing stubs for two more arms (but the extra arms won't develop into arms for some time), and it's dome has widened at the end with ridged details. It looks at the new subject that is to be impregnated, and finds her intriguing. She doesn't seem normal, and this interests the Tarkatan born. The two Xenos attach the crystal mare to the wall with a blackish brown goo that shapes itself to a darkly artist cocoon that holds her to the wall of the dark room that they're in. After the mare is secured, the Tarkatan born impregnates her and a chestburster comes out two hours later, this one looking like a human-born chestburster but with a metallic exoskeleton. A day passes, and the new Crystal born Xenomorph is fully grown. It's clear dark metallic, and can hide easily in shadows or darkness. It has clawed pony hooves for feet that are somewhat similar to the Caribou born's Caribou hooved feet which have more developed toes at the front and are able to move like toes.
The Tarkatan born lets off a quiet scree, and the two other Xenos pay total attention. It slowly approaches its young, and seems to be petting them. The Tarkatan born has grown too large to depend upon itself to get anything done. But with it's two new additions, it has all it needs for now. As long as they pick off insignificant individuals for food, they should be able to wait for Dainn's paranoia to get to him...
A few months have passed, and Dainn can't sleep. His heirs have been killed, he constantly needs to re-staff the castle, and he hasn't enjoyed a pony mare in so long. He tried using Celestia, but Nickelmane was completely correct. She just doesn't feel any stimulation, no matter how many vibrators he uses.
Dainn is walking up to the cell where he's keeping Celestia, and there she is. Her wings are plucked, her is horn chopped, and she still has scars from when Dainn got angry at her lack of stimulation or he need to hit something to empower himself. And tonight, he needed to feel powerful again. He's holding a container filled with his own essence that he's going to feed to Celestia. If he can't her than she will pleasure him for as long as he tells her, as he plans to fuck her throat until her brilliant white skin becomes blue from lack of oxygen.
Celestia's cell is simple rusted iron bars, surrounded by coarse stone brick. Celestia is in a corner of the cold, dark cell. She knows what's coming to her, and she doesn't like it.
"Feeding time, whore." Dainn says in mockery.
*hiiiiiiiiiiii-huuuuuuuuuu*
Dainn snaps his head around, and sees a monsterous black skinned creature, but it's not a Xenomorph. But still, he drops the container filled with semen in surprise. The creature throws a ball of fire at him, and Dainn covers his face.
"NOOO!!!" Dainn cries out as nothing hits him and he sees nothing behind him. Reality snaps back to him, and he's only halfway to Celestia's cell. "Damnit Dainn, Keep It Together!" He tells himself. A half hour later, and he's at Celestia's cell... Only Celestia's untouched. The space around her is still dark and dank, the stones are still coarse enough to scar bare skin, but it's like none of those things are daring to tamper with Celestia's beauty... And then there was Dainn.
"Feeding time, Sun Slut." Dainn said, proud to know that he won't be hearing from Nickelmane anymore. Disqord took care of that.
Celestia didn't move. She didn't do anything at all, even when Dainn poured the container of semen into a red bowl with "Sun Slut" written on it. With the container emptied, he unbuttoned his pants.
*hiiiiiiiiiiii-huuuuuuuuuu*
Dainn yanked himself around and saw nothing. But he swears that he can hear something moving around the outside of the cell.
"Can you hear that?" Dainn asks Celestia.
"What does it matter." Celestia answers, not caring about anything, "You had Discord kill my Captain, and you had him do it in front of my eyes." Celestia turns her head away from Dainn.
"Don't make me snap your neck again, whore." Dainn threatened. Celestia still does nothing, and Dainn puts his hands on Celestia's head, "Have of your way."
*hiiiiiiiiiiii-huuuuuuuuuu-hiiiiiiiiiiii-huuuuuuuuuu*
Dainn quickly checks behind himself again, this time illuminating the room with light from his antlers. What he sees freezes him solid with the icy coldness of fear...
It's a Xenomorph that's almost completely invisible, and hanging from the ceiling. It looks like a human born Xeno, but with pony hooves for feet.
*RSESESESESESESESESESESESE*
The creature leaps at Dainn, and he punches it out of the cell. The Xeno slides a small distance as it lands.
"So, this is the Demon of Canterlot Castle?" Dainn asked, mocking the otherworldly creature, "This is what tore through our guards? Well, one thing's for certain. You're one ugly mother fucker!"
*HESESESESESES-RESESESESESESE*
Now that Dainn has seen one of these so-called "Demons" up close, he sees that it's nothing more than a bug. A very large but at that, but nothing more. With one of these creatures now in sight, he takes off his cape to reveal his wings and reaches for his newly captured twin gladiuses as he. They used to belong to Nickelmane, but they're now Dainn's. His new chaotic friend is responsible for his newly upgraded magic. The Xenomorph charges for Dainn, and Dainn throws the left gladius at the big while slashing with the right one. The Xeno slams into a corner of Celestia's cell, and the handle of the left gladius falls off. Not out, but it just dropped. The Xeno got to its hands and feet while it let its acid blood fall to the floor, and aesthetically melted metal is seen falling out as well. Dainn looks at the blade he slashed at the creature with, and sees that it too is being eaten away by the acid blood. The Xeno crawls next to Celestia and quickly impales her with its tail to leave a hole in her.
"Oh, give me a break!" Celestia yells out in annoyance.
"What Hell did these things crawl out of!" Dainn yells out, dropping the final gladius, "Who makes a creature with acid for blood!?"
"Some humans would blame god." A voice coming from nowhere says out loud. Suddenly, a teenaged human boy appears in a flash of white light, "But I'd say that it was a sick idea made by evolution."
"Who are you?" Dainn demands.
"Oh, you'd probably remember my father" the boy answers, "His name is Discord in this world. To most other worlds, he's known as Q. I am his son, Q.
"Does Discord know about these creatures?" Celestia sternly asks.
"Look, I know what you're thinking, but believe me. He has no connection to these things." Q says, Celestia not believing him, "But I can tell tell you that this isn't the first time I've seen them." The Xeno slowly crawls up to Q, and hisses at him, "These creatures have been pursued by many. The Weyland-Yutani Corporation wants to breed controllable ones, the Yautjas consider them fantastic hunts, these humanoids called Engineers tried to make bio weapons from their DNA... But the strain of these violent creatures that you face come from a place called-" The Xeno strikes at Q, and it disappears with a snap of Q's fingers.
"Outworld." Celestia finishes.
"You knew about them!?" Dainn yells out in anger.
"I was trying to seal one away for good before your warriors were going to rape me." Celestia says in defense of herself.
"And the one you released is a Tarkatan born Xenomorph." Q says, in a exited voice, "By the way, that's also what Weyland-Yutani calls them for the same reason that you call them that. Oh, I can't wait to see how this unfolds!"
Meanwhile, Dainn is angered by the whole situation. He closes Celestia's Cell and walks out of the dungeon. He's stopped by an older looking version of Q.
"Who are you?" Dainn asks in an unfriendly voice.
"Who do you think?" The human asks in Discord's voice, "It's me! Can't you tell?"
"Your voice is familiar, but I don't recognize your appearance."
"I'm Q's father, Q." The human answers, "Though you know me as Discord."
"You betray me!" Dainn says while slamming Discord into a wall. He lets off a magic dampening field while pulling out a knife and stabs the wall as Discord flashes away, "I Will Have You Turned Female, Traitor!!" Discordia appears behind Dainn.
"And what if I want to be female on my own?" Discordia says, reveling that she's still Discord dispite her female voice, "You know what? I've never done this to myself intentionally. What a rather fascinating feeling! I simply must tell Janeway about this!" With a snap of his now feminine fingers, Discord teleports Vice Admiral Kathryn Janeway to his side. "Kathy, I turned myself female!"
"Who the hell are you, and where the hell am I?" Vice Admiral Janeway demands.
"It's me, Q!" The female Discord answers, "I must say this is oddly exciting!"
"You have betrayed me, but at least you brought me a female." Dainn says as he reaches for Janeway. This proves to be a mistake as the vice admiral draws a phaser points it at Dainn.
"Back off, whoever you are." Janeway states, "Q, it's been oddly nice seeing you again, and I thank you for bringing me some excitement for today, but I'd like to return to my office in San Francisco." Q appears behind Janeway.
"Aunt Kathy!" The boy calls out in excitement, "My father brought me out here to teach me what it's like to appear as a god to a planet. He said something about teaching valuable lessons to these 'Viking Caribou'. At first I thought it was going to be boring, but this is exciting! They've enslaved an entire gender, and their leader wants to release a hive of Xenomorphs!"
"I've heard of those." Janeway says, "Seven of Nine told me about them when we were talking about unassimilated species that The Borg encountered. They were found when a cube crashed on an uncharted planet in the Gamma Quadrant. The Borg tried to recover valuable technology, but these bug-like aliens tore through them to quickly for them to adapt. The technology was never recovered, and three cubes were lost to the event."
"What are The Borg?" Dainn asks in fearful curiosity.
"They are a collective intelligence that assimilates technologically advanced species to expand their numbers and technology." Janeway answers, "From the sounds of this place, they would ignore it, but if their technology wasn't enough to stop the Xenomorphs... Then it seems your culture will fall. Q, please. If this is a culture that has enslaved a gender, then I don't want to spend anymore time here."
The younger Q snaps his fingers, and Janeway flashes back to San Francisco.
"Son, I know exactly what you want to do." Q says, "And its an excellent lesson, but your timing's off. Give it just a little more."
"Yes father." Q says, "Or should I say 'mother'?" The young boy says as he flashes away.
"Can't be stopped by even The Borg?" Q says, stroking his still feminine chin, "I can't wait to see what my son has in store for you."
It has been one month since the incident in the Canterlot Dungeon, and Dainn has captured the one mare who has singlehandedly escaped Caribou custody without being violated once. Daring Do. But when Daring Do's new captors revealed that they were only to capture her to offer an actual paying job and freedom so long as she never goes back to Equestria, she willingly and carefully accepted the terms. She, and an excavation team composed of scientists, miners, and a Demon Hunter. The miners and scientists are a mix of pony and Caribou stallions, but the Demon Hunter is a Deer. And even odder, it's a Doe, but supposedly she's worked for Dainn before dispite a lack of records.
The the miners on the team have found the caved-in opening to the Canterlot Mines. A single stick of magically enhanced dynamite later, the entrance was reopened and Daring Do could now explore a mine she always wanted to explore. It's the only reason she excepted the job. She wanted to explore the Forbidden Mine, the mine where the Demons caused the disappearances of many ponies. And the Caribou are just as nervous because of the recent disappearances in Canterlot Castle, which the Demons are also rumored to be responsible for those as well. The Forbidden Mine is filled with many caved in sections that had to be dug out, and it took a week to finally get to what they were they were hired to go to, and they did eventually find it...
Right this moment, the miners have dug up a purple colored crystal that seems to be unbreakable. The wall of rock that covers the crystal is picked away, and several black creatures are found to be encased in the purple crystal. With their newfound discovery, the excavation team sent a Caribou miner to tell Dainn about their discovery...
After a few hours, Dainn came to the unbreakable purple and was in awe over what he saw... Demons. Demons everywhere. Demons trapped in that purple crystal that can't do a single thing. There had to be about a hundred of them... Hundreds of demons that were born from ponies, dispite a few having oddly shaped clawed monkey hands for feet. This is wat Dainn sees. It's actually hundreds of human born Xenomorphs with a few pony born ones of all types. Unicorn born with horns, Pegasus born with wings on their backs in place of tubes, and earth pony born that only had hooves as a distinguishing figure. All of the pony born had hooves. And Dainn wanted them all for his personal gain. Imagine, an army of creatures that can invade and breed at his command. And to start it all off, all he would have to do is send in one. But before he could give Daring Do her freedom and command the scientists to find a way to cut through the crystal, Discord's son appears.
"My oh my, would you look at that!" Q said, looking at the army's worth of creatures, "How many 'Demons of Canterlot' do you think that is?"
"Hundreds." Dainn says, too awestruck to care for the meddler's pressence, "Maybe a thousand!"
"Wow! Imagine if that transparent one could see it's past kind!" Q said, throwing a hint that flies past Dainn, "I think I'll let him have a look!" With a snap of his fingers, the Crystal born comes back in a flash of light and it slams its claws onto the purple crystal, screeching its head off, "Look at that, he really wants to see his family. I know how that feels, never being to see that which came before you. Like me and my mother. She disowned me years ago. But I'm going to let him see them, then they can really bond!"
"Yes, well-" Suddenly, Dainn snaps back into reality. He now knows exactly what Q wants to do, "WAIT, ARE YOU INSANE!?!?"
"No," Q says, smiling right at Dainn with a child's smile, "I'm slightly carefree and omnipotent. Just like my father."
With that said, Q snaps his fingers...
...

And the deafening sound of hundreds of screeches are heard...
