//------------------------------// // War Of The Worlds // Story: The Conversion Bureau Vs Aliens Of All Kinds // by Shadowflameking //------------------------------// Princess Celestia gave a smile as a newfoal brought her some tea before leaving,she had been quite happy now that all humans where eather dead or newfoals. Thankfully her shield spell tamed the weather and animals of this planet just like Equestria before she teliported it to 'Earth' now named new Equis. She did stop mid sip of her tea to nibble on a slice of chocolate cake before she felt the ground rumble,taking a look outside her castle window she saw giant metal cuddle fish shaped things crash into the ground. She looked on as the metal cuddle fish grew three long tentical like legs,as the tripods stood up they released a long fog horn like sound as two tenticals with cresant shaped things glowed blue and shot her guards,turning them into ashes and there armor into molten slag. Celestia stood up,her tea forgotton and her horn glowing as she shot out of the window and started shooting beams of solar magic at the tripods. The tripods gave no sign of feeling her attacks as she saw a shield flare up and become visible when her blasts hit it,before she got an idea and charged up her barrier spell. A pink barrier washed over the tripods ,having no effect other then to make them tinged a bit pink when looking from the outside. The tripods walked out of the barrier and started turning guards to ashes with there heat rays,and a small barrel under one of the tripods shot out what looked like a glowing red and black can,it hit near a small platoon of guards and relased a black mist that killed the guards as they gasped for air before dying and falling on there sides,the same happining to any guard who got close or had a can of the gas shot near them since it was carried by the wind and stayed near the ground. Another tripods heat ray hit the castle turning it into ruble that killed any guards to close to the castle. The princess looked in horror as her subjects where killed of by these tripods ,before she tried to use the elements. The Elements swirled around her,the element of magic focusing in the center as she hovered off the ground as there power built up and shot one of the tripods,its shields flared before giving out and the glass cockpit blew out with a torrent of red goop. Sadly for her this got the attention of the other tripods as they focused soley on her and began shooting there heat rays at her,the elements where having a hard time keeping up the shield that Celestia had made using there magic. Slowly cracks began to form on the shield,before it shattered and the once mighty Princess Celestia was turned into nothing but ashes. The royal guard sounded to retreat, Captain steel tried to get his troops to evacuate to the everfree,but he looked up to see a tripod looking at him as a long tentical with a needle on the end of it shot into his chest and his blood was drained. Captain Steel knew no more as the tripod droped the lifeless body and sprayed a red mist of blood on everything around it,and where it was sprayed a blood red vine like weed grew from the ground and completely destroyed any native plant life it grew near,even crawling up a few unlucky guards and sucked the neutriants and blood out of them so it could continue to grow. The tripids killed any who dared get in there path and soon the pony species was now extinct,but just as the tripods had won,they had also lost as one started wobbling around before falling over dead and powered down,a hatch on it opend up and a flood of red pinkish goo sloshed out before an alien crawled its way out looking at the sun as it dried up into a husk and died,and soon after the other tripods joined it. The red vine weeds also affected lost there bright red color and died turning grey and where blew to dust by the wind. For all the ponies magic nothing could harm the tripods except the elements of harmony ,and those where one shot only so they had time to recharge. But for all the aliens tecnology they had been killed by the simplest lifeforms on eart,ones both ponies and humans had evolved with and long since grown emmune to was ultamatly the demise of the invaders.
