Pony Effect: Invasion of the Reapers. Date: 27th March 2187. 10.27am The Equestrian Senate was busy as usual; they seemed to be more focused on simple politics than preparing for an assault of the Reapers. Commander Sheppard, seen the threat of the reapers in person. The Systems Alliance has done a lot to stop the reapers from reaching Equestria, but it wasn’t enough in someponys opinions. At 3 minutes before half past 10, Lieutenant Major, Crimson Lionheart received a knock at the door of his apartment. Crimson never received knocks on the door; he was sent messages to his omnitool instead. But due to the amount of knocks he has been receiving lately, this was urgent. He answered the door to see General Dancer, the first ever N7 graduate who retired from active combat years before. She was in her mid 50’s but was surprising fit for her age. “Crimson, the senate needs to see you immediately.” Dancer replied. Crimson followed Dancer as they made their way to the senate. “What’s happened? Is this about the reapers because you would need to see Commander Shepard about that?” Crimson responded. Dancer was one of Crimson’s many colleagues. They were good friends and supported eachother whenever in need. “Crimson, Commander Shepard is talking to the senate about the reapers..... They have just reached the moon. Crimson was taken aback by this news. “The Moon? Can the fleets above Equestria stop them?” “I don’t know. You need to board the Celestria and get out from Equestria as fast as you can. We can’t afford to lose you or Sheppard.” Dancer said sadly. They seen the senate in a big argument with Shepard. Shepard seemed to be winning The council had a long semi circle table with each of the senate’s members filling in each seat, huge glass windows behind them viewing the city behind them and the large sun symbol that is used on the Equestrian Flag. “Crimson, thank the goddess your here.” Shepard said to Crimson as he walked through the door. “You have seen the reapers when you were with me on Eden Prime Right? We both know firsthand what they are capable of. “Shepard then turned around at the council. The Mare in the middle adjusted her glasses, “I’m sorry, but we can’t let you two leave.” This caused a short uproar between the senate until they heard a large noise behind them. The First Reaper had landed right behind the Senate, charging the large laser eye it used as a weapon. “Oh my Celestria.” One of the senate members said as the beam was almost charged, the beam then unleashed upon the senate. Crimson, Shepard and Dancer ran to take cover as a large explosion happened behind them. When they recovered, they saw that the all of the senate members were dead and the city being swarmed upon dozens of Reapers. Crimson and Shepard then ran and fought off any of the infantry the Reapers used. They boarded the Celestria and left earth to get as many species to help them take back Equestria, if Equestria was completely taken, then the other species would not stand a chance. “Crimson, get your equipment and team ready. We are heading to Verson, I heard something there might defeat the reapers. I have to take command here with my team and the Celestria as well. Good Luck Crimson.” Shepard said as the stallion left to the Combat Information Centre of the Celestria. Crimson wasn’t happy, his homeworld was being invaded. His friends, even his family were being attacked by the Reapers and that Equestria would face a mass extinction. This took awhile to sink in, and then Crimson messaged his comrades. He had to take Equestria back....
((pinkie, have you signed up on the character sheet and if you haven't you can't as they are officially closed and I'm not quite sure but I think canon characters arent allowed)). Robin Hoof the only lieutenant colonel on the Celestria was on the bridge next to Joker. "alright almost there, should be aligned perfectly, opening bay doors... Now. Oh almost forgot you're heading to meet in the command info centre so take that box to them will ya". Joker said before concentrating back on the consoles in front. "Okay got that" he replied heading to a box with two ear pieces in it. Then he left to the CiC and when he got there, crimson beat him to it. "Names lieutenant colonel Robin Hoof, the only one on this mighty ship, There are also rumours about me being a N7 candidate". He handed the box to crimson. "two top end communicators one for you and the other for shepherd.
“Thanks. Lieutenant Major, Crimson Lionheart. I graduated from the academy at 14 and have been training other N7 soldiers ever since. If you’re a candidate, then I wish you luck for the program. Expect me to be yelling at you 24/7. How was the situation on the Celestria?”
"Dont worry, I'm used to being shouted at and working hard. How else would I become a N7 candidate" he turned back to console zooming into the hologram of verson and the landing area, mission details and route appeared on screen. "I've already sent details to joker so we should be heading To the mass relay right about now. Now if you excuse me I need to suit up". Robin hoof then left returning in a full set of hahne kedar armour Spoiler: armour picture
(That's actully the armor i used when i first played it. Just with pattern 4, and red and black camo to match my Femshep's hair. Male Shep is too mainstream ) "I might as well get prepared as well, it never hurts to be prepared." Crim said as he then got suited up in his dark red and black camo skin Ariake Technologies armor, he wore everything except the Kuwashii Visor. The Celestria then arrived at the mass relay and headed thowards Verson.
"alright while you get kitted out. I'll be heading to the armoury where shall we meet". He smiled heading out to grab his vindicator and predator.
After 10 minutes, Crimson made it to the armory where he found Robin waiting for him. "Ok, this is what i got..." Crimson said showing him the mission details, Apparently we have to rescue this scientific research facility. Verson's atmosphere is toxic so keep your helmet on until we get inside.."
"dont worry, ive been on a few poisonous planets before so I think I know what to expect". he put his helmet on with the active comm link. "looks like we are almost there one more relay and we are set. you ready" Robin said smiling.
"Oh yes. Expecting a fight when an enemy takes a faclility like this is common, it's who they are that always leaves me asking questions." Crimson replied. The Celestria then arrived at the mass relay, the ship was then struck by blue lightning and then dissapeared in a flash.
Crimson grabbed the Mattock, and his helmet before taking his seat on the shuttle. 2 minutes later, the shuttle left the Celestria and was entering Verson.
After a smooth journey, they landed and Robin Activated the gas mask function of his helmet and activated his communicator. "everyone ready, I don't want to open the door and everyone suffocates on the toxic atmosphere".
Right behind Crimson was several marines, they listened to Cobra's words carefully and activated their gas masks. Crimson did his shortly before the shuttle landed. "Ok. We can take the mask's off once were inside. One of the scientists claims to have found a way to stop the Reapers, we get him or her out alive and we hope for the best for a chance in this war." Conditions back in Equestria were getting worse, within 2 hours the Equestrian Alliance's control on Equestria ceased to exist. Other lands were fighting back but losing their battles. The war hasnt hit the Citadel yet or any of the other planets like Palaven or Surkesh, but it would be a matter of days or months before they do.
