~The Conversion Bureau - The Last Human Chapter 2~
~By Maxis122~

I awoke from my sleep and looked up to the roof of the bunker. The Ipod had stopped playing long ago and it was getting dark now. The dragon was now probably gone and maybe it had made its way back to its home.

Apart from that I was still here, I could still go ahead with my mission. So I sat up and turned around. After taking my headphones off and placing them with the Ipod onto the table I went into the toilet area to wash up.

It had been a while since I looked at myself in the mirror and seen myself as a human. This was the only human I would ever see. So I did my best to keep it clean by splashing some cold water onto it and wiping it dry with a towel. Then I walked back into the main room and looked to the front door.

It was still locked in place, I was still safe. But there were some things that I still needed to do before the day ended. So I picked up my backpack and unloaded its contents onto my bed to make it lighter. Then I put it on my back and grabbed my M16.

I walked up to the door and unlocked it so I could leave, when I was out the sun was behind me. I shut the door and then walked back onto the street to see some of the buildings bearing burn marks and some of them were ripped apart. This was all the dragons doings.

I now had to find out what I could before the day came to its end. So the first thing that I needed to do was get to a higher point. So I began to walk down the street and keep at a fast pace. For all I knew I was going to be just two steps from the hell of the dragons fire. But I had hope which told me that I was not going to die today.

The streets now began to take on a different form as they gained shadows. These acted as new places to hide so I had to be a lot more careful and take plenty of due care when walking down these streets.

Soon I was at the building that I wanted to go into. It was a hospital, but not only was it that but it was also a skyscraper. Therefore it was very high giving me two of the things I needed - a better view and the medical reports.

Breaking the doors now I walked in to see everything empty and the power completely off. The hallways were dark, pitch black dark to be exact. But thanks to this not being the first dark place i’ve been to I have strapped a torch to the end of my M16. After switching the flashlight on I moved ahead into the dark hallways.

Each dormitory had been evacuated and everything was left behind. Life support, medicine and even the essential solutions to problems that people had been left behind. It was like this all stopped mattering all of a sudden. It was like all these years of researching and developing meant nothing now.

To even think that this was going to be the future now is just a big joke. Equestria has magic, it solves all their problems. When there is a building to be built - use magic. When there is a bolder in the way - use magic. It seems that you can use magic to solve most of the common day problems.

But this was the human world and magic was never used. Not for healing, moving or even building. Everything was created by the machines that were created by us humans.

Soon I found the stairs and began to walk up them. Each floor was a floor closer to the top and when I got there I would be able to find some more things out about everything that has been going on over the last few days.

I came to the top floor and then turned left down the corridor and walked down it. Soon I came to a room that was just about lit by the sun and it had a sizable view of the city. I walked over to the window and looked down at the city streets. There was nothing but the city street, the dragon could not be seen from here.

I then turned my attention to the table with a few documents on it that were scattered because of they had to leave quickly. It was that or there had been a struggle between two people - or something else. 

The first document was a normal report about the hospital saying that it was at its all time best. Another talked about how they could improve certain methods to save peoples lives. Then I found the one I was looking for, it simply said “Project Conversion”. I shoved this one in my bag and then began to leave, but I caught a switch on one of the televisions.

I then hear that familer voice from so long ago. It was the Twilight Sparkle interview from so many years ago, I wanted to just leave it and walk away. But I couldn’t help myself from watching it one last time. 

It was a tape and there was the reporter and her. She seemed to look nice on the outside but from what I know - she caused international uproar. She seemed to be so relaxed when she insulted and mock my race. Because I was a human she way implying that everyone had to be greedy and evil.

A uncontrollable rage formed within me as I knew that this was getting on my nerves. I have never met her before but because of her and those princesses she got everyone one to change. I was the only one to escape, and I know that is now fact.

I clenched my fist and narrowed my eyes as I looked into the eyes of this pony as she went one about who she believed I was. I may be a human but that doesn’t mean that I fall in line with all the others. I am unique and different as every human is, its just Ms. Sparkle thinks otherwise.

A part of me then clicked as she spoke the words “You humans are all...”, then my fist has planted itself into the screen. She had no right to accuse everyone of being the same. A short time passed as I stood there with my fist in the screen, but I needed that time to calm down.

Maybe one day I would meet Ms. Sparkle and then she can hear from me what I have to say. But I have other things to do now so I removed my fist from the television and moved into the main hall again. 

I then walked into the main part of the office where there was the biggest window of all. I began to walk towards it to see in another direction. Then all hell broke loose as the glass smashed and the dragon poked its head inside.

It had found me, and this time it knew I was in here. I jumped for cover and looked left and right to see if I was clear. The dragons head was too big so it backed away and pulled some of the building apart. This was my chance to move, so I dashed over to the hallway and began to run down it.

Then a blast of fire shot from behind me, just missing me by a meter. Even though it had missed me I fell over because of the sheer force that it gave off. I was then a exposed target as the dragon flew around the building and burned the place where I needed to go.

I was trapped and now the dragon could take me for dinner. It was a curious thing that a dragon would go for a small human instead of going out into the wild and eating a cow. But that was the last thing to worry about. Now I was the cow for dinner.

The dragon began to pull bits of the building off as I ran to the back of the room. The dragon then stuck its head inside and tried to bite me, but it was still a bit off. So it backed up again and pulled more of the building to pieces. 

Time was now against me so I had to act quick or I was todays dinner. I looked left and saw the the elevator had its door partially open. So I ran over to it and pushed it open as the dragon went in for another try. Its head was now a meter away from me so it pushed itself in further.

Then I fell in the elevator and caused a part of the wiring to malfunction. One second I could see the dragon, then it was gone. The descent was slow to begin with and then it sped up, having little slow areas and fast areas. Each floor whizzed by and the doors stayed open so I could see what was happening.

I had escaped the dragon but now I was falling to my death, brilliant! Then it came to a stop on the first floor, I was still alive but something caught my eye. I tried to make it out but then the elevator fell another floor so it was in the basement. This time it cause me to hit my head on the rail and I went out cold. 

That image was burned into my memory of what I had saw, but I couldn’t figure out exactly what it was. The shape was as familiar as hell and after a looking over it again it becomes a lot more clear. But there is one thing that I can be sure of - it definitely was a pony.
