The resurrection of Equus

by Robert Emerald Fountain


The Plan and the Team

Neighsay sat in his guest cabin on the Lemurian Star, looking at a photograph from when he became Chancellor in the EEA. He was in deep sorrow because his comrades had not been able to get rescued from Equus before the calamities took their lives. He was startled out of his trance by the intercom beeping.

"Go ahead.", he answered.

"The meeting for resurrecting Equus is about to start.", Twilight reported.

Neighsay made his way to the conference room and took a seat. Brandon gave a rundown of the plan that he and Link had formulated. A team would parachute down from space and place a terraforming device that would restore the planet to its glory as if nothing had ever happened.

"There is one part of this mission that is far more critical than deploying the device. Team members must go to a clear area to be transported back up to the Lemurian Star. The device will release a wave of energy when it detonates. IT WILL KILL YOU! Our calculations say that this device has a 90% chance of working successfully.", Link explained calmly.

"I volunteer to be on the team. I caused the planet to die when I activated the device. I shall make amends for my deeds.", Neighsay responded quickly.

Twilight, Luna and Celestia were the other team members. After beaming the device down to the ground, the team began to gear up.
