“Utopia…A grand floating city with only twelve occupants. One was the founder, ten made it shine, and one made it shake.” - BioChemicalWolfGear
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The entire floating city was shaking. Not from some storm on the outside no, that was far too simple. Oh no, it was shaking because the speakers where loud…And only one can do that.
“SOUND WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVE!” If it were possible Nano would have shaken Utopia even more. But none could tell with Wave’s wubs.
“What?!” Shouted Sound Wave.
“TURN IT DOWN!”
After Utopia made it to tier 3 every specialist got their own specialized rooms. Sound wave got a theater to make wubs. Beast Master got his own Bio dome. Smoke Machine got a weather unit (It would enrage Cloudsdale). Binary got a super computer. Turmoil got a security room. Golem got a storage room…(for his golems) Nano got her own hanger to design new planes or cars with Sky Rider (Massive hanger). Peace Keeper got a global command center. Impulse got Utopia’s control room (Bigger and more navigation systems). And Watchman got a bigger observatory with screens that allowed him to watch multiple things at once.
Not only that but Utopia’s hallways were bigger now and had rail system to get you to each room faster.
“What are you kidding? DUBSTEP GIRL DUBSTEP!”
“I DON’T GIVE A SHIT! IT’S VIBRATING THE TANKS ACROSS THE FUCKING FLOOR!”
The music is turned off.
“Thank you!”
“Sure sure. But next time, bolt your shit to the floor.”
“Fuck you!”
“Do you want me to turn these up again?”
“…”
“Didn’t think so.”
Nano whispered ‘bitch’ under her breath as she walked out.
“No taste in music.”
She turns the music back on only quieter but still rave party volume.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another improvement to Utopia was each bedchamber specially made for each specialist (Tehe get it?). Even Nano had her own bed frame that held her weight and didn’t lower her too much, she weighed a lot less too after the remaining material left her body. (600lbs)
Turmoil didn’t get a bed. But he got a suit repair system that also washed it for him. The protein sequencers were also replaced every night he got hooked up to the life support machine that left him suspended in air each night. Tubes hung out of the back of his suit.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Sound Wave should be executed.” Said Nano coldly to Sky Rider.
“Aw you just don’t give her a chance. She’s real nice you know!”
“She’s a real pain in my ass.”
“Maybe a party would make you feel better?”
“NO NO NO! NO RAVE PARTYS!”
“Just sayin’.”
Ten minutes go by and not a word gets spoken between them as they work on their own things. Nano goes to check on any design flaws of Turmoil’s new tank and is disgusted by the fact it’s no longer considered a tank…So she builds a mammoth tank for herself.
“Hey Sky Rider.”
“Yea?” Said Sky livening up from the potential of conversation.
“When I was down in Ponyville a pony named Lyra was asking me about humans…You think we should have some sort of open house?”
Sky thought for a moment. “YEA! Thad be a great idea. We should go tell everyone!”
“Umm you go do that. I’ve got some improvements to do on Turmoil’s tank.”
“I’M OFF!”
Sky dashes out of the hanger to call a cart that would send her to Peace Keeper.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Smoke Machine developed a nickname from his friendly conversations with the locals of Ponyville. They would call him Sparky since he has his telsa coil backpack with him at all times. It looked like an old world radio backpack from world war two, only instead of an antenna it had a small tesla coil that allowed him to hold lightning in his hand.
He preferred being called tesla but no one knew what that was so it didn’t stick.
“So. Many. SWEEEEEEEEETS!” Said Machine.
He was in sugar cube corner with Cloud Kicker. They’ve been hanging out a lot and Nano expects them to fall in love. However that could be farther than the truth. Their very good friends…Cloud Kicker doesn’t know that.
“You act like you don’t have sweets in your world.” She said with a smile.
“Well we do but…I haven’t seen a bakery or cake place…Whatever their called for years. Thirty two to be exact.”
“Whoa that’s a long time, hey want a chocolate cake? I’ll buy.”
“No no. I don’t want to-“
“I’ll take a chocolate cake Mrs. Cakes.”
“Coming up dear.” Said Mrs. Cake.
“Oh…Or you could do that before I refuse but ok…I’ll have some.”
“I won’t let you go another day without any cake. No exceptions.”
“But-“
“No exceptions.” She said with squinted eyes of ‘I will win and you will like it.’
‘Oh god am I married?’ Thought Smoke Machine with the look of horror on his face.
“Here you go dear.” Said Mrs. Cake.
“Thanks Mrs. Cake.”
“Your welcome dear.” Cloud throws five bits on the counter and flies over with the plate of cake in her mouth to a nearby table.
Sparky stands there like a dumb ass. “You comin’?”
“Oh right!” Smoke walks over and sits down by Cloud Kicker. She already managed to cut it in half with a fork that she was holding with a hoof.
“You know the fact you’re holding that with a hoof is like…Magics.”
“Silly pegasi can’t use magic.”
“Then how are you holding that fork? The laws of physics don’t allow it unless there is some invisible force acting upon it.” Cloud stops chewing the bite she already took and looks at her hoof in contemplation…She then gets the most ‘OMG APPIFINY!’ expression.
“Whoa…YOU’RE RIGHT! I’ve never noticed that before.” She said amazed.
“Y-you didn’t? How has no one noticed that?”
“I don’t know. Maybe it just seemed normal so no one questioned it. Hey you should bring this to Twilight Sparkle! She can send a letter to the princess so she can start a branch to study non-unicorn magic.”
“That sounds fun I guess…Hey you know how Celestia’s mane flows with invisible wind?”
“Yea why?”
“I need to know. What shampoo does she use?” he said jokingly. “Regal touch?”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Peace Keeper already discussed the idea of an open house with Sky Rider. He thought it was a great idea. It would improve relations with the entire world. But there was a more pressing concern with Utopia that must be solved.
‘Nano Swarm, Impulse, Turmoil, and Sky Rider come to the meeting room.’
Everyone asked to join came.
“Ok Peace I wanted to work on the ships, and I sent Sky Rider to tell you about the open house idea but I didn’t know-“
“Sorry Nano gotta interrupt you. This isn’t about the open house.”
“There’s going to be an open house?” Said Impulse.
“Yes but that’s for another time. Now I called you all down here to discuss the elevator at the bottom of Utopia. It needs to be replaced by a mass harvester.”
“WHAT?!” Shouted Impulse. “W-why do we need one?!”
“Because it would look better. And besides with the mass harvester there it could form more than one ship at a time. So the Nano Swarm Cores don’t do all the work on creating ships when we need rapid deployment. This was no more apparent then when we had to send out and pack up Turmoil’s battleships during the one day war.”
“Oh…Know what this is an acceptable improvement. If ever we meet a race capable of doing us or others massive damage we need a rapid deployment army to defend innocent lives. All right let’s get started on the design.”
After a few hours Nano Swarm got the Nano Swarm Cores to eat away at the elevator and build the mass harvester. The mass harvester looked like a giant circular crystal on the bottom of Utopia’s center. It was also a light bluish purple. After it was done Peace Keeper turned to Nano and said.
“Nano…I need you to make a museum of the history of mankind.”
“Wait I know nothing about mankind!”
“But I do.”
In several short hours Peace Keeper and Nano Swarm where able to build a museum with glass exhibits where the great wonders of the world where built in miniatures. Even land marks and important religious symbols where built in small scale in the museum.
The quotes of each important symbol where also created on golden plaques with the quotes imbedded in them. And even a speaker system that spoke the entire world history nation by nation. Each exhibit was a different nation with all its glory and successes, its traditions its art, its population and technology.
Utopian library was created.
“Each exhibit consisted of a different nation, each nation’s history, successes and failings where quoted, and each nations land marks where built in plaster.”
-Peace Keeper
When the Utopian Library was finished Peace Keeper installed a voice guide that knew your name by reading your mind. It chose who was worthy of knowing things and what they would be interested in learning. It spoke to the one who entered and sang them the songs they liked to hear.
“Never before has a library told you about yourself through its knowledge, yet this one defies the meaning of library as it teaches you all that you deem important.”
-Peace Keeper
Then they decided to test it out. But they didn’t know which pony should go into the museum first so Peace Keeper went to Golem god to discuss who should go into the library first.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“That Nano girl is infuriating and rude! I’d much rather find someone who’s more into being friendly…Maybe Peace Keeper? What do you think spike?” Said Twilight sparkle as she paces back and fourth through her library.
“I dunno Twilight. I heard that the weather specialist is at sugar cube corner, maybe you should try him first.”
“When did you learn about this?”
“Pinkie showed up and started rambling about it.”
“Oh…TO SUGAR CUBE CORNER!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Smoke Machine was eating cake with Cloud Kicker. He was amazed at how great it was after so many years of not being able to trade with the outside world.
“OH god this is good.”
“What’s god?”
“Lord almighty god of the human race the lord and creator of the universe, OH THIS CAKE IS AWESOME!”
She laughs at his orgasmic expression.
‘Smoke Machine. I need you to find a volunteer from the surface to see a new library we installed.’
“Ok. Hey Cloud Kicker?”
“Hmm?”
“Do you know anyone that likes books or history and stuff like that? Specifically human history.”
“Oh umm there is Lyra Heartstrings and Twilight Sparkle. Twilight is a librarian and student of the princess and Lyra is just obsessed with humans.”
He thought hard for a moment. “…Take me to Twilight…Please.”
“Ok but can I ask why?”
“Well there is a library or museum that we built on Utopia. It’s not ready yet but it’s going to teach all who enter about humans and stuff. I just heard about it from Utopia.”
“Wait but you didn’t talk to anyone else besides me.”
“Oh Utopia speaks to my mind. It’s voice is like an angelic whisper.”
Just then sugar cube corner’s door bursts open and a tired out purple unicorn looks around and sees Smoke.
“Hey sparky.” Said Cloud “That’s Twilight Sparkle.”
“Oh”
She trots over to them as they watch her approach.
“Good afternoon I’m Twilight Sparkle.”
“I’m Smoke Machine the weather specialist. I have a quote that describes you well.”
“Umm. Ok.”
“A touch of mortal value filled her speech and gladly would she learn, and gladly teach.”
“Umm. Wow that’s pretty good.”
He continued with another quote. “Utopia has a library opening up. I want you to be the first to see it.”
“R-really? I’d be honored.”
“fair warning though. The Utopian Library has no books, but its wealth of knowledge is greater than any other, you will never find a more vast congregation of knowledge in any universe.”
“Whoa. Can we go now?”
“I’ll call them.”
‘Send the pony in front of me too the gates of Utopia.’ He spoke to Peace Keeper through the line. ‘all right. I’ll be waiting her visit.’
*poof*
Twilight was teleported to Utopia’s golden door.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“W-where am I? Machine?”
She looks around the room and it is a grand golden hallway. She was standing in a circle in the floor and she looked around to see suits of armor lining the walls. And in front of her across the hall way was a man standing in front of a massive golden door.
“Hello! I’M PEACE KEEPER!”
“I’M TWILIGHT SPARKLE!” She trots over to him. “What is this place?!”
“This is Utopia’s golden doors. Through here we will go to the inner workings of Utopia.”
“What is with all the gold statues?”
“Those aren’t statues there golems.”
“Golems?”
“Moving suits of armor.”
“They don’t look like their moving.”
“Oh? AT ARMS!” on cue the golden pikemen golems lift their pikes into the air and lean them forward as if in an attacking position.
“Whoa.”
“AT EASE!” They return to normal. “Come let’s see the library.”
“Whoa. Sure.”
It took five minutes to get to the library by rail. Once there Peace Keeper told Twilight that it’s best that she go in alone while he goes back to his studies of the world powers.
“Sure I’ll see you after this. How do I use the rails again?”
“Just tell the cart you want to see Peace Keeper and it will find me.”
“Ok thank you.”
She steps into the library.
‘Hello Twilight Sparkle of Equestria. This is the Utopian Library.’
“Umm hello?”
‘Today you wish to learn about the specialists’ culture. This is unavailable since the open house event will explain it without library intervention. However culture comes in many forms with humans. Today let’s look at the American imperialist ways and how they eventually united the nations and crated the alliance in 2157.’
The amount of history was staggering for Twilight. Every little detail about every war and event. Every new era and so on. It even detailed technology that she wanted to learn about. Twilight took notes the entire time and she found the concept of human technology so confusing that after she got to the renaissance era she wasn’t able to keep up. But the idea of what humans could do with such technology was so impressive that she kept listening. She went onto English history then into Americas history and then into the alliance. Then she reached the point where it talked about Utopia and how it escaped as a unmarked vessel of immense power.
