Chapter 1: Captured 


Location: Ponyville in Equestria; Time: 8:29 P.M.

As the Sun was setting on Ponyville as the night sky started to show, but a rainbow blur was racing for home in a hurry as night got closer and closer. The blur was Rainbow Dash and was flying home after a long and hard Wonderbolt practice today. Now after practice was over Dash headed for home. Well after she stopped at Twilight's place and talked about how practice went for her.

Dash thought back when she got back to Ponyville earlier today. She was thinking about something that lingered in her mind something uneasy and felt scared like super scared. Looking over her shoulders and in the sky hoping that they won't take her away like the stories she heard, 'Come on Dash there is no such things as aliens right? They're not real I hope. There is nothing out here tonight. Hehheh.'

But unfortunately Dash was having second thoughts about that whole idea that aliens didn't exist. The reason why she started to believe that aliens could be real and they abduct stallions or ponies for some unknown reason was because of what Spike said to her. The whole thing started when Dash arrived at the Castle of Friendship earlier when she got back to Ponyville.

Flashback: Hours earlier

Dash opened the front doors to the castle and walked up the stairs to Twilight's castle library where she found Spike who was reading a comic book on a couch. Then Dash said to the little purple dragon, "Hay Spike have you seen Twilight around here? I wanted to ask her about the Daring Do book that was coming out soon." 

Spike looked up from his comic and said, "Sorry Rainbow you just missed her. She went help fill in for Applejack at Sweet Apple Acres because she's in the hospital. She's having one of her legs fixed." 

Then Dash said with a understanding look and knowing she ended up in the hospital a few times in the past one when she broke one of her wings, "Oh. Well I hope AJ gets better soon." Then Dash noticed the comic that Spike was reading. The title of the comic said 'Abduction of the Star Streak' and had picture of a huge UFO firing a capture beam on a young stallion who was caught in the beam trying to escape.

Dash was wondering what it was about. Then she asked Spike in curiosity, "Say Spike what are you reading? A comic book?" 

Spike looked back up at Dash and said in reply, "Yeah it just came out it's called The Abduction of Star Streak." 

Rainbow nodded in agreement she knew what it was because she could see the title. Then she said to Spike in reply, "What is it about?"

Then Spike said with a grin on his face, "It's about a stallion named Star Streak who gets captured by aliens from outer space and use him for experiments. Then he finds a way to escape from his extraterrestrial captors and saves Equestria from an alien invasion. It's so epic!" After he said that his eyes were twinkling like stars and was enjoying the moment! 

Then Dash said with a flat look not knowing what Spike was stalking about, "Yeah. I don't get it but I'm not an Science Fiction Egghead like you Spike." Dash only read Daring Do books and also one little detail that she was about to bring up. Then she said with a skeptical voice. Then she also said to Spike, "Also I don't think aliens are real." 

Spike sighed in annoyance and said, "Your not sure yet but Twi believes there could be life in the stars above the planet. Maybe they'll come here to learn about our world and culture you know! That would be so cool." 

Then Dash said with concerned look on her face, "Well what if they wanted to ponynap us and use us in experiments and surgical operations? I wouldn't want to be part of that." 

Spike shrugged at the comment and said to her, "Well you never know if their out there. Maybe they're watching us right now." Then he got up walked into the hallway then stopped and looked back at Dash and said ominously, "I wonder what you do if you were abducted and used in experiments Rainbow?" With that Spike left hoping that she'll listen. But Dash who was starting to shiver like something was going to happen to her tonight and she'll remember it as the most scariest thing in her life.

Flashback ends.

Dash flew for her cloud house in the sky hoping aliens won't just swoop in and capture her and take her to a laboratory for medical, biological, and surgical experimentation. Suddenly a bright blue beam of light caught Rainbow and she stopped in mid air floating. Then she yelled with disbelief as she tried to move, but she didn't go no where as she stayed in one spot, "What the hey?! I can't go anywhere what's going on?!"

Dash thought about why she couldn't fly away it was impossible for a pony like her to get stuck in the air with out a problem. There wasn't any wind blowing the opposite direction that was out the window. It wasn't Trixie doing a spell on her. Also Discord was no where in sight so it couldn't be him at all nor a prank by Pinkie Pie.

Then she remembered what Spike said as it echoed through her mind, "I wonder what you do if you were abducted and used in experiments Rainbow?" Dash slowly looked up at the sky hoping that she wouldn't see what she didn't want to see. But she found out it was the thing she didn't want to see in a lifetime a huge UFO had opened it's opening hatch and the light she was caught in was coming from the ship!

Seconds later Rainbow started to move upwards towards the opening and started to panic trying to fly away, but no luck and was yelling out in fear, "No please! I don't what to be abducted let me go!" Then she tried to fly faster by flapping her wings faster and faster hoping it would do the trick. But when she looked up she was 12 feet away from the ship's opening and made her last desperate yell for help, "SOMEPONY HELP ME!!!!!!" Then the light blinded her and before Dash could scream or cry for help she black out and fell in unconscious.

The hatch of the UFO closed after Dash was inside the massive ship. Then it took off into the air and flew for Ponyville. The ship was going to collect a another passenger for it long trip into space.

Location: Ponyville at the Castle of Friendship; Time: 8:35 P.M.

Twilight was laying in her bed sleeping in a peaceful slumber. Spike who was snoring after reading comic books all day was sound asleep too. The two had already went to sleep ready for tomorrow's work ahead of them. But they didn't know a certain blue light shined on Twi as she started to float up into the air.

Then the lavender Alicorn started to levitate towards a open window as she didn't know what was going on in the real world. Twilight slowly floated out the window and up into the blue light and went through the open hatch of the UFO that captured Rainbow. Spike who was still sleeping didn't even noticed what was happening to his foster alicorn sister as she floated into the air outside.

When Twilight entered the hatch it closed behind her as she was abducted by Extraterrestrials. Spike who was still sleeping didn't hear a thing at all. Then the ship flew off for the Crystal Empire in a streak with a quiet boom. However, it was enough to wake up anyone near the area.

When the boom went off it woke Spike up a bit and said as he opens his sleepy eyes, "Huh.... what was that?"

Then Spike yawned and laid back down on his bed and said, "Probably nothing." With that he went back to sleep. But unknown to him Twilight was now gone. Taken by spacemen from a another intelligent planet and who knows they were planning to do to her and Dash. 

Location: Crystal Empire at the Royal Palace; Time: 9:04 P.M.

Meanwhile at the Crystal Empire Shining Armor Twilight and Spike's older brother was sleeping in his bed with his wife Princess Cadence as the night went on. The two parents had already tucked Flurry Heart into bed an hour and 30 minutes ago. Now the two leaders of the Crystal Empire were getting a well deserved rest just like everyone else. Then suddenly the same blue light shined on Shining from the balcony doors and started floating up into the air just like Twilight did. Then the balcony doors open and was lifted up into the air and taken outside by the UFO's capture beam! Then floated up to the open door hatch of the UFO and was pulled into the ship.

The UFO wasn't like the Grey's ships the ship was a futuristic space shuttle made by well... mankind! These men and women were from the United States of America on Earth from another dimensional universe and were part of NASA as the ship was a space shuttle MK2 codenamed Infinity Discovery with extremely advanced technology equipped on it including a extremely advanced dimensional warping hyperdrive that can allow the shuttle to warp into other dimensional universes. Inside the shuttle 2 astronauts slowly laid the sleeping unicorn stallion on a examination table next to Rainbow and Twilight and strapped him down for the long hyperspace jump ride to our home planet. Planet Earth! Also hooked up to some medical equipment to keep an eye on his vitals.

Then the Space Shuttle MK2's thrusters quietly roared as it flew towards the the planet's stratosphere as it busted through as flew out of Terra's orbit. Then one of the astronauts said to his crew mates, "Man this is something out of Star Wars! Ok here we go jumping into Hyperspace now!" 

A reply came from one of the other astronauts who was a male said out with a smile on his face as they finally going home at last since hey been away from it quite a while for around several months in Earth's time, "Home here we come at last!"

Then the pilot of the shuttle put in Earth's coordinates in our dimensional universe before he pulled a leaver near the control panel and in a split second the ship disappeared into the vastness of the great unknown with a resulting boom that echoed through space. The Infinity Discovery flew through a light blue and navy blue swirling tunnel as they flew through the dimensional barrier between Twilight's dimensional universe and our universe. A few seconds later the shuttle exited the tunnel with a familiar blue and green planet with a single moon. They were back on Earth and now it was time to come home at last. But for Twilight, Shining, and Rainbow a new adventure was just about to begin as our world will become a battlefield between the forces of good and evil as heroes will unite to fight against a certain mad scientist with a robot army with help from a certain high speed blue hero.
