Metroplex heeds the call ADOPTED

The war is coming and door to door sale men

Mason mind
Where am I? All around me is black. Black and blue for no reason. I look around and see that i’m in some sort of back up unit. It must be, for if the field unit or human me gets damaged I don’t go to the big me and still be in pain or freak out in 10 mile high robot that can blow up the mountain and city with it.

As I look around I see a screen with the words “ warning all runts to field unit and mine unit has been blocked off by an outside force…. that shouldn't possible." That’s not good, not good at all.

“Well hello there” and that’s something that should not be here as well. I turn around and see the last thing I though I'd see in Equestria. A human, a mother friggin' human. “ Hello Metroplex or Mason, my name is Time Splinter and do I have the deal of a lifetime” and he’s a door to door salesman, of course, just my luck I get stuck with the only other human here and he's a door to door salesman.

“Okay, one; i’m not a door to salesman, two; i’m an enlist for the war of shadows, and three i’m not reading your mind i’m a fourth wall.” Ok that makes sha- wait a moment, does that mean that my life is just a story on a website…. it better be good or there’s going to be some ass to kick.

(Editor: Then lets see you enjoy the drop in quality.)

“Ok as I was saying, i’m a recruiter for a war that’s going on with the displacement and you have the chance to help in it. No, i’m not going to say what the displacement is, you're just going to have to find out your self.” “ Who the hell are you, what the hell is the Displacement, and what the hell is going on!?”

“ One; I said that my name is Time Splinter, two; I said that i’m not going to say who they are, six... no wait three; I’m here to recruit you for the War of Shadows. It’s going to help get some being that would like to see everything that you hold dear gone, dead, no longer here, you get the idea? Look all I need you to do is fight in this war and you help me stop some being that would like to kill us all ok. Before you ask, no one will die or stay dead for very long.”
I thought about this and thought of some words that the hero always says when they have a chance to leave but stays to fight…. but i’m going to say on better “we wing it”.

“ Ok Mr. Time Splinter, which side do you say is on the side of Harmony?”
“ Oh that would be Lea, his side use the Elements of Harmony.” Ok I'll be on that said and can you make it so it would look like I never left here when I go to fight in the war.”
“ I think I can do that oh and you should be waking up right about... now.” I then black out, the last thing I see for some reason was nyan cat.

I started to wake up in my real body, still in city mode as I used the cameras to look around the city, ponies were starting to get settled into the homes that had sprung up from me. As I looked around I see some nobles complaining that they should be the only ones who should live the city and the commoners should stay in the ruined city.

I see some ponies giving out food and water, some giving out blankets and clothes but mostly just the blankets and some help to find a place in the city for the refugees to stay in for the moment. I kept on looking to see that some ponies trying to find a place big enough for some orphans, but for some reason they can’t anyplace to keep them all in the same place. I have no idea why this place is big for 15 meter height robots so there's got to be a place for them. Just as I thought that a building pops up in front of them that, big enough for the ponies to stay with plenty of room.

I surveyed on, looking through the city when I got an alert from the field unit, “ field unit repair time 03:21:54” oh so that’s how long I got until I can go back into my human body. Well i can wait….
