In a rift of time and space beyond even Celestia's knowledge, ten elite leaders of an all-knowing race of god-like beings were gathering for a council meeting. The "Mods", as they called themselves, were as tall as skyskrapers, circling around a large flat table and peering down at it. They could see every single creature in PonySquare, each of them living out their digital lives. The beings were discussing the future of their empire amongst themselves.

"fgh loifdre sdjklfah lrhgk gh."

"Things have changed..."

"ksdhjfg sdfjkhgk ud duhdu."

"It is not the way it used to be."

"ieuf ehbubf bfhhefhb e ruber ew e."

"We must cleanse..."

"hicefsuyvg eugbu euwb tuyi."

"The bugs are too much for it to handle."

"wub wub wub wub gwaaah, ee gugugugugugu brrrrr."

"We will reset.... it must be so..."

"dgnlsg werlignsd sdlfng lwbg fdsgidlufbg slidb b idlusffbils jo"

"The world shall be divided, between ponies and creatures."

"gsh te htrh hdgs fh dshs sgh."

"Then it will be done."

They all placed their arms into the center of the table and lifted them up, using their other-worldly magic to slowly cause the perimeter of PonySquare to dissipate. The Mods dismissed their meeting, going their separate ways and letting their decision run its course.

Default got out of bed the next morning at 6 and logged on to PonySquare before anything else. She felt faint again like she did before as she fell into the binary abyss, waking up a few moments later in her bed within her home in PonySquare. She left her home after looking through her house a bit more, which disappeared behind her once she walked out, and resumed her activities of poll-taking and friend-making. Default walked around Ponyville and greeted any new ponies she saw, giving them a friendly smile. Walking through the park, she smelled all of the flowers and fresh fake air. She sat down next to the lake under a tree and relaxed, closing her eyes. When she opened them again, she saw something unusual that she hadn't noticed only moments earlier; the sky in the distance looked like it was getting.... closer. She couldn't really explain or understand it, but it looked as if the world was somehow getting smaller. She got up and walked in the direction of the horizon.

She walked for several miles until she figured out what was going on. The sky really WAS getting closer! The ground was disappearing before her eyes and a black void was all that remained behind it, but the background of the sky was still there, acting like a wall for a giant room. It got closer to where she stood every second. She ran back to Ponyville as quickly as she could, panicking and starting to cry as she galloped. "What the hay is going on?!" She thought to herself. "How do we stop this, and what will happen to us if we don't? Who's the leader of PonySquare, I have to let them know that we're all in danger!"  

She ran at top speed back into Ponyville, storming into the town hall and into the mayor's office. Coincidently enough, Mayor Mare was also the mayor in PonySquare's Ponyville. "Mayor!" Default exclaimed as she practically broke down the office door. "Hm?" The mayor asked in confusion. Default continued, "PonySquare is getting smaller!"

"What do you mean, miss?"

"I mean it's disappearing!!"

"Hah, don't be ridiculous, sure there are a few errors here and there, but nothing too fatal. I'm sure you just saw an illusion or something."

"I'm serious!!!" Default snapped in frustration. "Just follow me and see for yourself!"

"Fine..." The mayor gave in as she sighed. She followed Default to the now diminishing edge of PonySquare, which was now much closer than before. "Oh... my..." The mayor stammered, hardly able to believe what she was seeing. "We have to tell everyone in Ponyville! Who knows what will happen if we don't get out in time?!" Default continued. The mayor thought for a minute and said, "Although I don't want the ponies to worry, yes, we should tell them for the sake of their safety." They both hastily returned to Ponyville and used the siren to call for a town meeting. The mayor and Default stood at the podium as the ponies gathered. Once they had a fairly large crowd, The mayor got their attention.

"Citizens of Ponyville, Citizens of PonySquare...... I regret to inform you that we must leave PonySquare for the time being, as we will all be in very grave danger if we stay. This world is becoming rapidly smaller, and if we do not leave, we may be lost in nothingness forever. Please, tell everyone you know to leave PonySquare until further notice."

The crowd was silent for a moment, and then out of nowhere erupted in panic. Everypony tried to leave within those first few silent seconds after the mayor's speech, and they we panicking not only because PonySquare would be gone, but because, for whatever reason.... none of them could leave.
