Sweetiebelle and Nexus both had their ears cast down and looks of anger on their muzzles. Babs and her cousin both had guns also trained on them and Scootaloo, she was back in a corner away from the rest of them.

Danik gabbed Norton by the hair and looked at him momentarily. "Nice work."

"What?" Isaac said looking at Norton.

"Well, here he is: The Marker killer. Isaac Clarke. And here we are: The 'Marker home world.' You know, I must admit, I almost didn't believe such a place existed." He said crouching before standing again. "But, thanks to your friend Norton, I finally found it."

"That's how they followed us through shockspace." Carver said looking at Isaac.

"Oh! Oh, he is a bright one." Danik said looking down at Carver mockingly.

"No, no." Norton said leaning towards Carver. "All... All he wants is Isaac. Carver, the rest of us can go home!"

"You deluded son of a bitch..." Carver said lunging at Norton.

He was quickly pulled back and hit across he back with his guard's gun.

"Hey!" Isaac said. "You got me! Let the others go." He said.

"It's a very difficult thing you know, undoing the damage man has done. Everything we touch, we contaminate, corrupt. The Markers have a plan for us, but we took what should have been a magnificent gift... And perverted it." He said.

"Now, isn't that the biggest load of manure I've ever had the displeasure of hearing."

He turned to Sweetiebelle, she looked at him with a disapproving frown.

"And why is that, heretic?" He asked putting his hands on his knees. "Why do you think man isn't corrupt, hmm?"

"Well, if it wasn't for man, your so called 'Markers' wouldn't have been found, or created, and your leader, Altman, wouldn't have become a Martyr. And what about the people who were born with disabilities? Ones who couldn't do anything themselves? Are they evil? Filth?"

"You know, I admire you; you ask some very good questions. But," He frowned. "It is true Altman did find the original Marker, but as for others, they have disabilities because of others. Inbreeding for example. Or, large doses of radiation from the sun. They may not be able to help it, but they are heretics too. The infection that man has made."

"Well, what if I told you about a creation of the Marker that destroyed the very same Marker? What would you think of that?" She asked grinning slightly.

"Then I'd say you hit your head to hard." He laughed. "And, what is this thing? If it exists of course."

"You're looking at her."

He merely stared at her, blinking he lifted his glasses before rubbing his eyes. Squinting at her, he picked her up by the shoulders and tilted his head to the side.

"Really?"

"Yeah, I was killed saving Isaac from suffocation. A Infector came across my corpse, and my magic," she tapped her horn. "Scrambled the infection and turned me into a hybrid. Now, I can turn or mix any of the Necromorph limbs I find and even increase my overall biomass. Did I mention the part where I can make Markers in seconds?"

"You can make Markers?" He said setting her down. "Show me. or, your friend here dies." he said pointing a gun at Applebloom, who, unnoticed had brought out her Plasma cutter.

"Show you?" She said looking at him, both fearing for her friend and herself if she did. "Well, I already made a cube of the same thing. Nexus, could you drop the cube, please?"

Nexus with a sad look, let his chest split and let the cube fall into the snow. It glowed a slight white, blue symbols scrawled on it pulsed gently. Danik, staring wide-eyed, licked his lips before bending own and picking it up.

Turning it around, he took a handkerchief and wiped the blood away. Running a thumb over it, he turned it round and round. It gave a small arc of energy across its surface slightly shocking him. He dropped it in shock and suddenly had a gun pointing at Sweetiebelle.

"What's it doing?" He asked. "What's it doing! Answer me!"

Sweetiebelle and Nexus, both of them staring into space didn't answer. Instead, they got up and went to it. Nexus picked it up and Sweetiebelle cut it into smaller cubes. Stopping when she had four, she threw two out into the snow and Nexus took one while she got the other.

Both of their horns lit up and shot out a single arc of magic towards the two cubes out in the snow.

The cubes, shook and vibrated disturbing the snow around them for two feet. They sent out a pulse around the ground and with a crack, the stone split and quickly began circling the two cubes. The stone split down the middle making two columns, at that point, Scotoaloo knew what was happening.

Two new Markers stood tall and glistening from the steam quickly condensing on their surfaces. Danik looked at both Sweetibelle and Nexus, gulping, he staggered back as they began to change.

As they were changing, Isaac and Carver shared knowing looks. As they were about to rush their guards, they all fell with a single flash of blue.

"Ah think the time to talk is over now." Applebloom said as her plasma blade turned off and the guards intestines fell into the snow. "Danik, by E.E.B code one-hundred, section three, article-F, ah hereby place you to death. Ah hope ya got a good aim, otherwise this won't be much fun." She grinned letting her alter ego take over.

Isaac quickly grabbed a grenade off a soldier's chest and threw it at Danik as he ran to get away. It detonated too late, Danik was already making his way across the flat terrain and to his gunship.

Before they could take two steps, the wall past the cliff was smashed in and out from the wreckage came the Nexus previously thought frozen.

"Girls!" Applebloom yelled getting her friends attention. "You know what to do! Formation alpha! Level black!"

Scootaloo nodded before charging her horn and making a bright light before flying up, Sweetiebelle crawled over the cliff edge and Applebloom walked directly in front of the Nexus as it leaned over the cliff.

It gave a roar, ignoring the gunship as it left, but focused solely on the little filly in front of it. Applebloom stared directly at it, unmoving even as one of its legs smashed down next to her. When the second was coming down, Slenderloo flew in front of it and then flew a few circles around it's head before hovering in front of it.

As it was reaching up to swipe at her, it gave a roar of surprise as Sweetiebelle wrapped Drag Tentacles around the two main legs and held them back. After that, she made another pair open its ribcage, exposing its heart to Slenderloo who flew down and grabbed Appleblood.

Flying up again, she threw her passenger in. As she hit the heart, Applelbood began cutting a square into it and then jumping in. It screeched in pain and annoyance as it felt her shoot the heart from the inside.

As she was busy firing away at its heart, the Nexus flung it's head back, hitting Sweetibelle in the muzzle with a crunch. She let go and it brought a leg through her chest. Lifting her up, it threw her into the building in front of them and then turned back to Slendelroo.

It opened its maw before she was sucked in, with the light disappearing from sight, it arched its back and tore out its own heart while flinging Appleblood away. She slid across the snow and into the rubble even as Sweetiebelle was getting up. As it leaned down and sucked more of the environment around them into its maw, Appleblood was dragged away and into its jaws.

Nexus, seeing its leader in trouble, went in to fight.

he was just as large as Sweetiebelle, but only slightly bigger. His muzzle was black with his old teeth coming out all around the edges, his spine came out in three places on his back, his lower body was elongated like the Tormentor's and had an extra set of legs. His back was covered in spikes, his fore-head was plated like a Stalkers and his fore-hooves were bladed like a Slashers. As he stood on the six Slasher blades, the Nexus swung down.

He leaned tot he side but bit down when it finally hit. The Nexus lifted him up with some difficulty as it wobbled. He dug his blades into its leg and stood. Roaring, he leaped forward and onto its head.

It bent back, screeching as Nexus tore into its head and eyes. As he was about to burrow into it, it swung and flung him off. Siding, he was charging his horn when it sunk the tip of its leg through the back of his head. It picked him up and tossed him aside.

Isaac, without a second thought, ran out and began firing at the pustules of its head.

"You motherfucker! Spit them out!" He yelled angrily.

He got rid of one, and then as he was firing away at another, a large bolt of energy hit it in the head incinerating four more. He looked behind him, expecting to see Sweetiebelle with a smoking horn and bloody mandibles, instead, he saw the small filly. She went next to him, using her own magic to move her Markers. She set them down on either side of her and had them both begin to charge.

"Isaac, call the new Unitologists and tell them to attack the Nexus." She said glaring at the Nexus.

He ran back to cover, seeing the two Markers begin to ark with a white energy before her own horn shot up a spark. The two energies met the spark and it shot out a charge like a howitzer. Opening his comm, the leader of the cult came on.

"Brother Clarke," he said. "Is there an-"

"Listen, no time to explain, but two of your gods just got eaten." He said making the man gasp. "Could you come down here with a few ships and missiles and blow this thing up." He turned the screen to the Nexus and at the moment, pull in Sweetiebelle and him out from cover. "Just come and blow this thing up!" He yelled before it leaned down and sucked him in. "Not again!"

Author's Notes:

No offense to anyone with disabilities. I was making Danik seem as bad as he is.
