Small Encounters

‘’Whoa! I’m a freaking’ Cyberman! Oooo! This is so cool!’’ He said, as he was having a nerd-gasm. Tom knew what a Cyberman was because he watched the TV series Doctor Who whenever it came out. He knew who the Daleks were, he knew of Davros, the Dalek’s Creator…But most importantly, he knew of the Cybermen. The great villains in Doctor who’s history…But he was careful to mention this around other fans as they might start an up-roar debate about who’s the best villain.
But what are the odds that he would actually end up as a Cyberman once he died?

Suddenly. Without even having to think about it. Tom’s intelligence skyrocketed. He clenched his hands against his steel head. He fell down on his knees. Into his head, tons upon tons of information streamed inside. Tom had never been the brightest kid. But now, he suddenly knew things he didn’t – Complex mathematical formulas, sciences he didn’t even know existed, and of creatures and lifeforms that a normal Human being wouldn’t be able to comprehend lived at all.
‘’Whoa!’’ Was his only comment he could utter to what had just happened.
He stood back up. Starring out towards the trees, forests, and the mountains he had seen upon opening his new eyes.
‘’Might as well just going. There’s a whole new world for me to explore. To seek out new lifeforms, to go where no Cyberman has ventured before.’’ He said to himself. ‘’Whoa! I’ll need to get used to hearing that.’’
Taking one step forward, and another, and another, and another, and another. He started to walk down from the hill he had found himself awakening upon.

He suddenly stopped. ‘’Maybe…’’ He said. He began to think.
A screen popped up in his vision, it showed the current model of Cyberman that he was. ‘’N’awwww!’’ He moaned disappointed. ‘’I had hoped that I had been the Death in Heaven-Cyberman, or the Nightmare in Silver-Cyberman. I could have benefited from some enhanced speed, or flight.’’ He said to himself. He resumed walking, and strode towards the forest – Entering its dark, and eerily silence.

*Several hours later*

Boy, he was glad he was a robot, because if he had been Human, he would have been dead-tired before he even got this far. He stopped, and began thinking again. Unfortunately, what he wanted to see didn’t appear. ‘’Right! Guess I’m on my-‘’ suddenly. He heard loud, frightened, screams from amidst the trees. He turned, looking in direction of the screams. It wasn’t unlike Doctor Who to have alien creatures in it, but he hoped that what made that noise wasn’t an Alien that could kill him…At least not until he had managed to find out where he was.

He pushed several branches aside, feeling very optimistic that he had found what he was looking for...Bingo.
Behind the branches, he saw something that indeed did shock him to a much greater extent than anything he had seen so far.
Forced up into a single tree, were several small, equine, colorful, creatures. Due to his past knowledge of Earth Animals, he guessed that these were horses…Very, very, very, VERY, small horses. Down on the ground, jumping up to try and get them were Wolves…made out of wood. ‘This is a strange planet.’ He thought to himself. He scanned the Wolves, but he detected nothing, no energy that would suggest that they had energy-based weapons on them. But they did give a small read readout of…something off, about them.
He groaned softly to himself. He had wished for a challenge…But I guess we can’t always have it our way.

He raised his arm, aiming it at one of the Wolves. A red beam shot from his wrist-laser. The Wolf exploded into several pieces, which fell on the ground. The two others turned, trying to see what had attacked their companion. Before they could spread out, or do much. He fired off to more blasts, which destroyed them in seconds – The food that belonged to their bodies fell down on the ground.
The small horses that had been panicking a few minutes ago, looked down confused at what had just happened.
‘’What in the world was that?’’ The orange looking one said.
‘’I have no idea…Applebloom?’’ A white one asked. Turning to look towards the other one beside it.
‘’Ah have no idea Sweetie belle. Ah-‘’ as she turned her head, she spotted something. Her eyes looked out in front of her, narrowing. This attracted the attention of her friends beside her.
‘’What? Applebloom-? Do you see something?’’ The one referred to as Sweetie Belle asked.
Lowering his arm, he ‘’narrowed’’ his eyes as well. Zooming in closer on the small horse-creature.
‘Oh, dang it! She’s seen me!’ He exclaimed. He turned, and vanished back into the forest.

Applebloom shook her head. Turning it, and looked back at her friends. ‘’Yeah girls? What is it?’’ She asked them.
‘’It may just be our imagination or something, but you saw something just now, didn’t you?’’ Scootaloo asked. She couldn’t hide it now, she had to tell her friends what she had seen.
‘’Yeah, ah did see somethin’…’’ Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo was about to open their mouths and begin bombarding Applebloom with ‘’Tell us! Tell us! Tell us!’’ Applebloom raised her hoof, motioning for them to be quiet. ‘’Ah’ll tell ya’ll the whole thing…But after we get down from here, and to a much more safer place to talk about it.’’

*Ten minutes later*
‘’Wow! And you’re telling us that you saw it-! Like, legitimately saw it?’’ Scootaloo almost screamed into Applebloom’s ear.
‘’Ay-yep! Ah wouldn’t lie about somethin’ like this.’’ Applebloom said.
‘’Maybe we could inform Princess Twilight about this. If it is true that you saw something, wouldn’t it be better to see if it’s dangerous, or kind?’’ Sweetie Belle said.
‘’Sweetie makes a good point. We must tell somepony about this. I mean, the Fate of Equestria could be in our hooves.’’ Scootaloo raised her hooves, holding them out in front of her. Sweetie Belle did the same. ‘’Oooooo!’’-ing, and ‘’Awwwwww!’’-ing at their hooves. Applebloom rolled her eyes, and continued down the path towards Ponyville.
‘’Alright. But you girls ain’t gonna tell anypony about this. We wouldn’t want to start a panic before we’re certain.’’
