There's Aviworld; the fast and furious lifestyle of Ancient Pegasopolis. Magicworld; nobility and magic duels of Ye Olde Canterlot. And Dodgeworld; adventures in the Dodge settlements of the Equestrian mid-west. Each world is maintained by reliable cybermagic technology, and run by lifelike robot ponies. The robots are programmed to provide guests with an unforgettable vacation, and the technology is designed to provide all of it in complete safety. Here one can relieve frustrations and satisfy desires; all in a controlled environment. The trio of friends know they'll enjoy their stay at DELOS; the ultimate resort where nothing can possibly go wrong . . . go wrong . . . go wrong . . . gooooo wwwwwrrrrrooooonnnnnggggg.


Ponified adaptation of Michael Crichton's Westworld.

Hmm, this story has been fun thus far. I'm curious about whether this story will be their vacations at the resort or if this will be one of those stories where the robotic staff of a resort all malfunction simultaniously, either way I'm looking forward to next chapter.

Saying that, I did notice one small mistake which a number of other authors have made; Prickly Pear's story seems to imply that he grew up in Appleloosa, but in the episode Braeburn said that everything there had only been built a year prior

2456208 Thanks for commenting; I was afraid this story would slip by everyone's notice for a while. :moustache:

I wasn't aware there were so many Westworld imitations in existence already. :rainbowhuh:

Thanks for pointing out that mistake, I'll be sure to fix it.

You're very welcome (^u^), though I'm not sure how many such stories there are for My Little Pony, only that it's a trope I've seen before in shows (I actually first think of one of the Doctor Who Christmas episodes when the trope comes to mind)

2457218 Well, this story is intended to be a parody of Michael Crichton's (author of Jurassic Park) Westworld, starring Yul Brynner, Richard Benjamin, and James Brolin.

Oh, and please thumbs up this story so it can be featured, please. :duck:

May gusta.....I think I spelled that right.....right?:rainbowhuh:

I like it good chapter my friend:duck:

My Little Pony meets Westworld? Now THIS will be memorable.

Heh, having seen Westworld, I am now feeling very uneasy over the potential fates of Rarity and Dash... :raritydespair: :rainbowhuh:

And so we've met pony!Yul Brynner. Now we just have to see what Rarity's first day is like.

2474621 I actually haven't seen Westworld, if you can believe it. :applejackconfused: All of what's parodied of it in this fic is based off little bits I've seen online, so expect things to be structured very differently from the actual movie. Rest assured though that I don't plan on having anypony die in this fic. :pinkiehappy:

2474648 Ahh, nice of you to let us know that no pony deaths are to be expected, but as a writer you might have wanted to leave us guessing to help ramp up the suspense.

Heh, I'd thought idly of my own MLP take on Ponyville - but the ponies would have been the robots there. And when things start to go wrong, the characters stop acting like the ones we know from the show and start acting like they do in, say, Cupcakes or Rainbow Factory or the like.

Uh-oh, I get the idea that this challenge is almost as much of a surprise to the robots as to the guests. Methinks all may not be going exactly according to plan in DELOS. Poor Rarity! She becomes Queen and is immediately forced to fight. :raritydespair:

Ooh! I'm looking forward to seeing the next chapter (-^u^-) This has been a lot of fun thus far

I understood very little of this. :rainbowhuh:

"What's she in for?" Bite Back asked a team working on a robot slave mare from Aviworld.

"CS malfunction," the lead technician answered.

" . . . another one? Hmm," Bite Back mused to himself as he continued on with his employee evaluation.

Something tells me this is a sign of worse things to come. :pinkiecrazy:
Nice job on the duel with Rarity and the robot, but my I never thought the unicorn fashionista could get so physical!

2554588 in between love the story just confused

Probably the best time for an update would be in the evening; that's when most people will have the time for their computer.

And oh, AJ, that was a dirty thing you did to those poor buffalo-bots. :ajsmug: And I liked the events in Aviworld --- Dash became Empress? Yikes. Rarity will go nuts when she hears it.

And some nice foreshadowing there with the rattler and Brave Heart 'glitches'.

2647778 If it were me I'd go with either Eastern or Pacific; most members of the site are divided between those two.

Well, the Princesses have been reassured. Obviously nothing can go wrong here. :pinkiecrazy:

And that drink is gray? Urrgh. Luna's braver than I am.

2682154 I just noticed that you've commented on every chapter except chapter 7. Any idea why?

2684327 I don't know. I suppose I just didn't have anything to say about that one. It's not a criticism of the quality on 7.

Heh, I should have said before, I really like that starter scene with Rarity and her king facing Sin again; and poor AJ, ending up in jail. Just imagine how Applebloom and the family would react. :applecry:

I have to admit, I didn't think that AJ would get blasted! I had figured she'd be the 'last pony standing', so you certainly surprised me there.
And I am definitely looking forward to the climax of this.

2758893 Yes, one would probably assume that at first. For those who second guess themselves, however, the notion of Applejack being the last one is far too predictable an outcome.

why you not put croossover in this one?
cause the film :

(sorry to repeat it if somebody say it before)

2761018 Because it's not a crossover so much as it is a parody. A crossover would entail actual Westworld characters ending up in Equestria. I've actually thought that there should be a parody tag for stories like this one.

BTW I take it English is your second language?

2761192 yep and that comment was not my most brilliant but reading this fan-fics are helping a lot

if you feel curiosity my first language it is spanish, europe spanish to be more exact .

2761789 What's the difference between European Spanish and Central American Spanish?

2762661 some words and ways to say the things changes it is something like the differences between EEUU english and UK english

Good story but will everypony be alright?:duck:

Well.... I might have some difficulties trusting hotels now. BUT IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!!!!!!! :heart:

I know not what this westworld is but hopefully by the end of this story ill understand:twilightsheepish:
great story so far non the less:twilightsmile:

Wow, the owners of DELOS are goiing to have their asses sued so bad their grandfoals will feel it.

Chief MB? As in M Bison? That's hilarious! You just made my day.

Are they becoming sentient?
