Nazareth, Israel
"Alright soldiers, listen up! We need to patrol around this area to check for any suspicious activity okay?" The Captain said.
"Yes sir!" The other soldiers replied.
"Alright, A squads you go patrol the Sea of Galilee."
"Yes Sir!" The A squad said before getting in trucks. Once they were all loaded up, the truck pulled away.
"So what do you think is going on man?" Once soldier asked another.
"I don't know exactly, but there are rumors of some sort of alien being on earth." He replied.
"What's your name?"
"I'm Rafael Torez." The soldier answered.
"Rafael huh? You're crazy man, aliens? You gotta be kidding me?" The first soldier said.
"I'm not kidding man, they're even saying that the alien is hiding somewhere in Nicaragua, that's why they evacuated most of the country." Rafael explained.
"What does that have to do with our mission?"
"Because the Americans, the Norwegians and the Israelis think it's true and that's why we are being dispatched to guard the area." Rafael said.
"This is crazy man..." The soldier said. The truck then arrived on the coast of the Sea of Galilee. The soldiers walked out of the trucks into a military car with a gun on top flying the Israel flag.
"Captain says we need patrol the sea so, drive around coastline." A soldier said to the others. The men then took off around the lake.
Outside Starlight's Village, Equestria
Starlight Glimmer stood there waiting anxiously in an empty plain while holding books.
"Where are they?" Starlight mumbled to herself while pacing.
"Relax Starlight, they'll be here. It's not like the princesses would stand up one of their friendship subjects." Trixie said to her. Starlight took a deep breath while moving her hoof to her chest and out.
"You're right, there's nothing to worry about. Everything's gonna be fine." Starlight said.
As they were waiting in the field a shadow was cast over them. They looked up to investigate and saw a chariot pulled by Pegasus guards attempting to land nearby.
"They're here!" Starlight said excitedly as the chariot landed. Starlight approached the area where the chariots landed to see what it was all about. The guards spread out among the field and cleared a path.
"Introducing her the rulers of Equestria, Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and Princess Cadence." The guard announced as the princesses stepped out.
"Eeeee! Princesses, thank you so much for coming!" Starlight said overjoyed.
"It was no problem Starlight. Now, where do we need to do this spell?" Princess Celestia asked.
"Uh, right over there, where Trixie is standing." Starlight pointed at her to see Trixie waving at them. The Princesses walked over to Trixie.
"Alright, what you guys need to do is cast the spell allowing you to see into another dimension and I will cast an additional spell that will allow Trixie and I to walk through it, okay?" Starlight explained to them.
"Yes Starlight, we understand." Celestia said as she lifted the paper containing the spell. Celestia then showed the paper to Luna and Cadence.
"Okay now aim at this." Starlight said pointing to a big rock.
"And once the portal is open, Trixie and I will only have a few seconds to go through it so we need to be quick." Starlight said.
"Wait, Starlight." Celestia said.
"What is it?"
"Since we'll be doing the spell this is my only opportunity to say this. Please be safe and find the girls, they're our only hope and their safety is of utmost importance. Promise me that, okay?" Celestia said to Starlight.
"Okay, I promise. I won't let you down." Starlight and Celestia share a tender embrace.
"Now focus really hard on the spell or it won't work okay? Remember how important this is." Starlight explained. The Princesses then got in formation around the rock.
"Okay, ready?.....Now!" Starlight ordered. They then charged up their magic before shooting at the rock.
"It's working! Come on keep going!" Starlight said as the rock began to change. The rock sparked and flickered as an image of a Castle showed up.
"Alright, Trix! Now!" Starlight said as she and Trixie cast an additional spell.
"Go go go!" She yelled as they quickly ran through the portal. The portal then quickly closed after Starlight an Trixie made it in.
"Be careful Starlight, I believe in you." Princess Celestia said after the portal closed.
Washington, DC, United States
"Sir, do you have an update or not?" The President asked.
"No sir, other than Norway and Nicaragua we don't have many leads right now." The FBI Director explained. The President then sighed frustrated.
"There is a goddamn alien on this planet and you guys don't have anything?! Anything at all?" The President yelled angrily.
"I'm sorry Sir but we have every agency on it right now, just please be patient with us." The FBI Director replied. The President took a deep breath in and out.
"I'm sorry for lashing out, I just, am very concerned about what is to come."
"I understand Mr. President how frustrating it must be to have an attack but have nothing, believe me I know. I was there during 9/11 and wanting to find who did such a terrible thing but not being able to is so, frustrating." The FBI Director said.
"Sir, I think we got something!" Agent Douglas said on his laptop.
"What is it?" The Director asked.
"The same bend in space-time effect just happened again." Douglas explained.
"Where? Is it here again?" The President asked.
"No sir, it's over Europe." Douglas answered.
Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom
A tourist and her family posed in front of the castle.
"Okay, 3..2..1..Cheese!" She said as she held her camera up.
"Cheese!" Her family said while posing.
"Okay done! That's going in the family album!" She said as she looked at the photo. As she looked closer she began to notice strange aurora coming from the castle. After closely examining the photo she looked up to see if it was still there.
"Kids! Get away from there!" She yelled as the strange aurora became stronger and began to spark. She grabbed her kids and jumped away as a bright beam of light came from the castle.
"Ahhhhh!" Screaming was heard as 2 thumps landed on the ground. The light then faded away quickly.
"It's okay, it's okay." The tourist said to her children as she covered them. After the light stopped she slowly lifted from cover. She peeked over the wall she was hiding behind to see 2 figures laying on the ground.
"It's the aliens! Come on run!" She said as she gathered her children and ran. Police sirens were heard as police cars showed up at the castle to investigate the bright light.
"Ma'am!" An officer yelled to the tourist. She then ran over to the officer out of breath.
"What happened here?" He asked.
"It's the...the...aliens!" She said panicked.
"What, aliens ma'am?" The officer asked.
"Over...over there!" She pointed before running off.
"Wait, ma'am!" The officer yelled.
"We need backup at the Edinburgh Castle." The officer said on his radio as an additional police car pulled in and a female officer stepped out.
"What's going on? I was nearby when I got a call from you needing backup." She said.
"This woman said there were aliens here."
"Like on the news?"
"Yes exactly." The officer said.
"Then we need to move in." She said while grabbing her pistol from her belt.
"But don't we need to wait for the SWAT team?" He replied confused.
"We can't, the longer we wait the more likely they'll attack or escape."
"Ok let's move in." The officer said as he and his partner grabbed out their pistols.
"Woah....where are we?"
"Trix! Get up, we need to keep moving." Starlight said as she picked Trixie up.
"Okay, now how do we get to Twilight from here." Starlight said while reading a sign.
"Stop! Scotland Police! Get on the ground!" The officer said while pointing his pistol at them.
"Uh, should we be worried about that?" Trixie asked while looking at the officers.
"Oh no, it's the aliens!" Starlight said scared.
"Oh bloody hell, it really is the aliens, and they talk..." The officer said in shock before
re-gaining focus.
"If you do not comply we will open fire!" He yelled again.
"What should we do?" Starlight said to Trixie.
"Don't worry I got this." Trixie then threw down a smoke bomb and began to run off with Starlight.
"I lost visual!" The officer said before firing his gun multiple times. Trixie and Starlight dodged a few before one bullet hit Trixie in her back right leg.
"AHHHHH!" Trixie screamed in agony as she fell to the ground.
"No! Trixie!" Starlight quickly ran back to her.
"Come on we need to move!" Starlight said while attempting to carry her.
"Starlight, get us out of here." Trixie said weakly.
"Okay, but how? Oh, wait!" Starlight said as she charged up the spell and teleported away. The smoke cleared as the officer moved in slowly still pointing his gun.
"They're gone, how..." The officer said in denial.
London, England, United Kingdom
"Okay, good I need you all to come up with more immigration laws for after we leave the EU, got it?" The Prime Minister said to her staff as they nodded and went into an office.
"Ma'am, the President of the United States needs to talk with you, it's urgent." One of her staff said.
"Oh dear, I'll be right over." The Prime Minister said as she walked to her office. After closing her door she sat down at her desk with 2 Union Jack flags behind her. She reached for the phone and put it to her ear.
"Ah, Mr. Tru-"
"This is very urgent we need to talk." The US President interrupted her.
"What could be going on?" She asked.
"You know those extraterrestrials rumors you've heard of?"
"Yes, I have heard about them, what is going on?" She asked nervously.
"The rumors are true, and we've detected them in Edinburgh." The President said.
"What? Slow down, Mr. President. Aliens? What?"
"We don't have a lot of time to discuss this, extraterrestrials are on your soil and you need to take action."
"How do you know this?"
"An FBI Agent detected energy via satellite. We are certain this is real." The President said.
"Ok, where exactly was the signal?"
"At Edinburgh castle."
"I will alert the NCA immediately."
"Okay, be careful." The President said before hanging up.
Orlando, Florida, United States
"Hey! I'm home!" Sam said as he enters the door.
"Oh hey..." Twilight said while laying down.
"What's wrong?" Sam asked.
"I just feel like, this is hopeless."
"Why is that?"
"We've been here for about a week and we haven't made any progress to fight Spiror."
"You know why we can't, if someone sees you they'll think you guys are an enemy." Sam told her.
"But look on the bright side, if we can't make any progress on finding him, the government will, and the closer the government gets to finding him, the closer we are." He said.
"Thanks, Sam, I just feel-" She said as Sam's phone dinged.
"Would you look at that." Sam said as he turned on the TV.
"This comes after the reported attack in Orlando just last week and here is a photo snapped by a jogger passing by during the incident." The News then showed the photo. Twilight jolted up as she saw the photo.
"It's Starlight and Trixie!" Twilight said.
"Who is that?" Sam asked.
"It's our friends from back home!"
"Well apparently they're in Edinburgh."
"You have to take is there!" Twilight said.
"Woah, all the way over there? How are you guys supposed to get overseas without being seen?" Sam asked.
"Don't worry I have ways, but we need to get there."
"Ok, ok, I'll look at flights." Sam then opened his laptop.
"What do you mean flights? How can you fly over there?" Twilight asked.
"Oh we don't fly, these machines called Airplanes, they fly while holding a lot of people, it's an easy way to travel around. Sam explained.
"Wow, that is very cool! I'll have to take notes for when I get back home. Earth ponies and Unicorns need that." Twilight said.
"Aha! Here we go, this flight leaves tomorrow afternoon to Manchester then from there to Edinburgh. That should be good." Sam then clicked on the booking page.
"How are you guys hiding again?" Sam asked.
"I'll use a spell to conceal us as we sneak into a safe spot, where could that be?" She asked.
"Maybe the cargo area."
"Ok, we will hide in there." Twilight said.
"I'll have to call out of work." Sam said as he grabbed his cell phone.
New York, New York, United States
*RING RING* The sound of a cellphone ringing was heard in the middle of the night.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Doren we have an opening available tomorrow afternoon, you'll be on NBC Nightly News." The person said on the phone.
"Ok, what time should I be there?" Mr. Doren asked.
"Be here at around 5:00 so we can get you ready."
"Ok, I'll be there." Mr. Doren said as he hung up.

Orlando International Airport
"Attention, the American Airlines flight to Manchester will be leaving at 5:30pm, thank you for your attention." The PA announcer said.
"Ok, it's 4:44pm, I can make it." Sam said as he rolled his suitcase behind him.
"Alright guys, security is coming up, are you sure you got this?" Sam whispered to a concealed Twilight.
"Don't worry Sam we can do this." Twilight answered back. Sam walked into the security line.
"Okay Sir I need you to remove your belt and everything in your pockets and place it in your bag." The TSA officer said. Sam stood there nervously as they scanned his bag.
"Ok Sir now pass through the metal detector." Sam then walked through with no alarms being triggered.
"Sir hold your arms out." The TSA officer said as he began patting down Sam.
"Alright, you are good to go." The officer said as he handed Sam his bag.
"Thanks have a good day!" Sam said as he quickly walked away.
"Guys? Are you still here?" Sam whispered.
"We're right here Sam, just keep going." Twilight replied. Sam walked across the Terminal floor being arriving at his gate.
"Hello Sir may I see your ticket?" The employee asked. Sam handed her the ticket.
"Have a nice flight!" The employee said handing him the ticket. Sam then walked onto the plane.
"You guys got this?" Sam whispered to Twilight.
"Don't worry Sam, just relax, we'll be fine." Twilight said while teleporting her and the others. Twilight flashed into the cargo area of the plane.
"Where are we?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"We're in the storage area of this airplane, I can only conceal us for so long." Twilight answered.
"So what now?" Rainbow Dash said sitting down.
"We wait until the airplane arrives." Twilight said while laying down.
New York, New York, United States
Mr. Doren sat on his makeup chair waiting as artists finished up.
"Yes be assured this is the right decision, the public has the right to know." Mr. Doren said on his cell phone.
"Mr. Doren, you're on in 10 minutes." A worker said.
"Ok, I'll be right there." Mr. Doren said before standing up.
"The Senior Astronomer of SETI will be joining you, correct?" The worker asked.
"Yes that is correct." Mr. Doren said as he sat down on the chair.
Back on the American Airlines flight Sam was sitting in his chair channel surfing through the TV on the seat.
"Eh I guess I'll watch the news." Sam said as he selected NBC.
“NBC Got an exclusive interview with officials from SETI, the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence who they claim to have an answer to what is going on, take a listen.” Lester Holt then cued a transition.
“Welcome, thanks for joining us. This is Omar Doren and Seth Shostak of the SETI Institute. I’m gonna start with Seth, what do you have to say about what’s going on?”
"Thank you Lester Holt, I'm the Senior Astronomer with SETI and Mr. Doren here came to me when an observer from Jerusalem told him he suspected extraterrestrials here in the United States." Seth Shostak said.
"There are current rumors of such Extra Terrestrials in Florida and Norway, can you prove these are real?" Lester Holt asked.
"May you explain Mr. Doren?" Seth asked.
"Yes I can, these Extraterrestrials were using a force so far on the electromagnetic spectrum that it is far beyond gamma waves. Which doesn't make any scientific sense since the energy emitted had a wavelength shorter than the Planck Length. Meaning that the energy is far beyond something our Universe can produce." Mr. Doren explained.
"Should we be worried, Mr. Doren?" Lester Holt asked.
"We've already let the government of the source know which is Israel and we have attempted to contact the US government but they are yet to get back to us. SETI has also reached out to the Secretary-General of the United Nations but they also have not responded yet." Mr. Doren answered.
"That's good to know but that still doesn't answer my question, should we be worried?" Lester Holt said more seriously.
"I want to say no but we're not 100% sure as what the Extra Terrestrials intentions are at this time, but it seems like very few are here so there's no need to worry too much." Mr. Doren said.
"NBC News got word of more spotting in the United Kingdom just yesterday and here is a photo snapped by a tourist and law enforcement of the incident." Lester Holt showed them a photo of Trixie and Starlight at Edinburgh castle.
"This looks to me like some kind of horses that are sentient and the Scotland police said that they were able to speak to the officers on the scene, what can you say about that?" Lester Holt said.
"I'm not very sure but it looks like the Extra Terrestrials are an advanced life form taking the shape of Earth's wildlife to disguise itself but we're not sure yet." Mr. Doren replied.
"Are you guys going to do something about it? Just in case these Extra Terrestrials are hostile?" Holt asked.
"Our job at SETI is to discover life outside of Earth but we can not combat the issue, that is up to the governments of the world." Mr. Doren answered.
"Thank you Mr. Doren and Shostak that's all the time we have, this is NBC Nightly News." Lester Holt said to the camera.
Sam sat there in shock.
"Uh oh, now the public knows." He said as other passengers began taking louder.
"Is this really happening? Oh Jesus help us." A passenger said behind Sam.
"Mommy, are the aliens going to hurt us?" A little boy asked his mom a row ahead of Sam.
"No honey, it's just...umm...they're here because they like us and they will help us." The Mom replied.
