The Hacker Pwny

Chapter 29: The battle begins!

"Let him sleep, he's earned it."

"But I haven't seen him, in like, forever!"

"Then he doesn't know you, and he would be better off if he rested. He took quite a beating from griffins."

"No, I'm his marefriend, he would love to see me. The name's Vinyl!" My ears perked up at hearing that name. I laid on a hospital bed in a large hospital in Manehatten. The place was busy, treating the ponies who were in the battle. I couldn't move, but I could hear voices since someone said, 'Let him sleep,'. I didn't recognize that one, but the other sounded very familiar. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, until she said her name was Vinyl. The two ponies exchanged sentences, Vinyl wanting to see me, the other pony not letting her. I didn't have the strength to even open my eyes. The most I could do was keep a steady breath. Externally, I was fine. I looked completely because of that strange burst of energy I had. It seemed to heal my wounds, with the exception of my inside. Internally, I was bleeding badly and in extreme pain. Odd, I don't remember feeling all this pain after the fight. A constant beeping noise was heard next to me, but I was able to drown it out of my mind. I attempted to sit up, but the only thing that met the movement was a stinging pain. I refrained from using my muscles and just relaxed them. Out of nowhere, a warm pair of lips touched mine.

I jerked my body, though painful, in shock. My eyes shot open, to see Vinyl kissing me. I pushed her off me and laid back down. That kiss seemed to have woken me enough to talk, I said to her,

"Please don't touch me, I'm in a lot of pain. Although, good to see you, Vinyl, I guess." Then I closed my eyes again. Darkness filled my vision as my muscles felt loose again. I heared Vinyl say to the other pony,

"See? He knows me." I wonder who even is the other pony. Must be a nurse. Or, no, it was a male. Only females are nurses here. That voice didn't ring a bell. Then it hit me.

"Bentley?" I asked. The stallion said,

"Yo, missed ya."

"Well, good to see you also. Wait, you know Vinyl's my girlfriend. Why keep her away?"

"You looked tired. I thought it would be best to leave you alone." I opened my eyes, to see a grey and red pegasus pony stand near my bed. His hair was short, and colored yellow and black.

"How'd you find me, and what are you doing here?"

"I just went through through the MTSC and appeared here. I then asked around, and found out you were here, and were injured from the griffins. I've been waiting for an hour at most."

"Well, thanks I guess, but I have a job to do, I can't rest." I attempted yet again to sit up, pushing through the pain. There was a burning in my legs and arms that made it almost impossible to move. I had the mental capacity to push through it. Once I sat up, I pushed my legs over to the right. They now hung off the bed.

I slide down the side of bed, catching myself on all four hooves. A sharp pain shot through me as I touched the cold tile. I took a step forward, against the cries of my muscles. A small stream of blood escaped my mouth as I grunted from the pain. Vinyl looked worried. She said,

"You aren't fit for moving, you should really get back into bed. Come on," she then put her soft hooves on my arms in an attempt to get me back. I shrugged her off, only being met with a lot of burning pain. I told her,

"I have a job to do. I'm not going to just lay around while Manehatten gets attacked. We need to strike in- uh, what time is it?" Bentley said,

"About five post meridiem."

"Well, I've been out for a while. Anyway, we need to strike at midnight, this is our home territory and we know it better."

"Noted, I'll relay the order. You really should stay here."

"No, I'm too tenacious."

"Dude, denotation. You really mean stubborn."

"Don't go all grammar Nazi on me. Now, enough talk, I need to go see Celestia and Luna." My right forehoof moved forward, only to cause me to lose my balance and wobble. Vinyl caught me before I fell and supported me up. Bentley said,

"If you're that determined, I'll help you there." He put my left forehoof over his neck, and Vinyl and Bentley carried me out the hospital. My back legs dragged on the cool tile. I could see the war victims, they all had bullet wounds. The nurses here didn't know how to treat bullet wounds. I told my friends to stop, then I got the attention of one of the nurses. She stopped and listened to what I had to say. I told her about how to treat gunshot wounds, including minimizing the pain, getting the bullet out, stopping blood loss, checking if they're still breathing and have a pulse, treating shock, and everything else I knew about treating bullet wounds. I changed it just enough so it could be done with hooves.

The nurse quickly rushed over to other nurses, spreading the information. Bentley and Vinyl continued to carry me out the building. As Vinyl pushed open the doors, I noticed that both Celestia's army and Luna's were training in the middle of a clearing near town. They used the tactics I told the princesses about, how to counter guns with magic and and shields. The pegasus were practicing dropped sharp objects, just heavy enough to pierce a tank, if done right. Unicorns were using various kinds of magic, from making shields that were bullet-resistant because of a way it was generated, to throwing heavy objects. Everything was going according to schedule. Except, there was some air around Manehatten, maybe it had to do with the army and the new enemy. But that just doesn't feel right.

It seemed more like something with the people acting strange. I told the people carrying me to bring me over to the tent the princesses were in. As I was pushed through the tent flaps, I told the princesses,

"Good that the armies are training, but where are the dragons?" Celestia said,

"They're mobilizing their army now, should get here any secon- oh, there they are." I poked my head out of the tent as I heard a roar from behind. Sure enough, there was a large army of dragons. Their scales might reflect bullets, that would be useful. Another pony pushed past me into the tent, and told the princesses,

"The humans are moving here. All of them. We have about five minutes before they reach firing distance." What!? Already!? This is not good, too soon! The armies aren't ready! I took a deep breath, and told Bentley and Vinyl to bring me over to the clearing where the armies were training. They did, and I started talking to both armies,

"All pony soldiers, listen up. This is the moment of truth, our last stand. From now on, there is no 'Sun Empire' or 'New Lunar Republic'. Just Equestria. You guys are Equestria's last stand, and it you fail, everyone here is dead. The humans will be here any minute, and you all need to be ready. Many of you will lose your lives, but remember this: every single one of you, are heroes. You all risked your life to protect the innocent. Never lose the fighting spirit, never give up, never fail. This land belongs to you, and you will fight to keep it! No matter who falls, just remember that this," I waved my forehooves around," all this, it's yours. Fight for the living, honor the dead." I stepped away from the clearing, now strong enough to be able to move, though very wobbly. I staggered my way over to the tent with the princesses in them. Bentley and Vinyl followed close behind. I entered the tent, and asked Celestia,

"I need you to teleport me to Canterlot, right next to the MTSC." She said,

"That's very dangerous, are you sure? It's under human control."

"I know, I know, but still. I need to go to Earth to get something."

"But the humans are about to attack, I can't just-"

"Then send me now and stop stalling." She nodded and her horn glowed as I was covered in a white light.

It worked, I appeared next to the MTSC. It's nothing short of a miracle that they didn't find this. I looked around to make sure the coast was clear, and I found Bentley and Vinyl with me. I didn't want them to come, but no time. I grabbed onto both of them, and pushed them through the portal. Well, not really. They more of carried me through, I didn't have the strength to push them. As I assembled into the room the other MTSC was on, I saw Vinyl, human, and Bentley there also.

I turned around and typed a few things on the MTSC, so it would leave the people who were born human, stay human. Twilight laid on a couch as she read something on an Ipad. Cortez and Jessica were leaning on a nearby wall and talking. I told everyone there,

“A city in Equestria is about to be attacked, we need to get over there and help the ponies.” Everyone turned their heads at me. Twilight asked,

“Which city?”

“Manehatten, now come on, we have to hurry. Get in the portal.: They all piled into the portal, leaving me alone. I raced into another room, and found one of my laptops in the kitchen. I opened it, the battery was ninety percent, that should be good. I grabbed it, and went into portal.

Gunfire erupted into the air as soon as I could hear. Bullets and tank shells rained down on me. I rushed across the grass, until I rolled behind a building. The gunshots were deafening as conflict raged on. It seemed like the battle was already in full swing. I tilted my head just enough so I could see the front lines.

Dragons and ponies were attacking the humans, with large boulders, fire, and just anything they could get their hands on. Explosions were being thrown everywhere, from human vehicles blowing up and tank shells creating large creators in the ground. Ponies and humans both were falling, their blood coating the noramly green grass that covered the field they were fighting in. At this rate, the humans will win in a matter of hours.

I’m not about to let that happen. I opened my laptop, and booted it. The Windows welcome screen came up, and the screen displayed a wallpaper that was covered in various, multi-colored icons. I clicked on an icon that was a flowing mixture of red and blue, it was titled, ‘Military Vehicle Hijacker’. I made the program about a year ago, haven't had a change to use it. I bet the government was too scared to send in a lot of people, so they most likely used remote-controlled vehicles. I watched the command terminal say a few stats about how many remote control brains there are.

There were twenty, that makes up for all the air force currently here, I know they will send more. Now let’s see, just DDOS the signal from their side, causing the plane to activate emergency protocols and accept all null, unauthorized code from any source. I did just that, and I was looking through a camera on the plane. I had full-control of the weapons system for just that aircraft, though. I made the plane do a loop and face backwards, then opened fire with all the missiles and guns on the other tanks and aircraft. I knocked down one tank and two aircraft, before mine exploded into metal chunks. A trail of smoke followed the burning pieces as they fell through the sky. The humans were prepared, despite the short notice.

Awwww, I wish I could hack attack helis

I'd be glad to tell you.

Most of the remote-controlled helis used by the government use a long-frequencies FRI type of back-and-forth communication. What Dylan did in the story, is called a DDOS followed by an end-user session stealers. Quite easy, if you know the back-up protocols of attack helis. Just scramble the client-side of the heli, and the basic run-time code would be looking for anything to keep it running. Easy in theory, but actually coding that jumbled mess of code is another story. It can be done, but not by me, maybe if I was with a team of about 4 or 5 other people who specialize in remote-control hacking. Well, there's your hacking lessen for the day!

598416 wow, cool but how did you exactly learn how to code n stuff because I'm interested into that kinda stuff but ima newbie. well less like a newbie and more like hadnt even started yet

[Chetzi]

Hmm, well... that's cool, I could teach ya a few things. Since you're new, I'll tell you right now, math isn't necessary. And you should start with with this book. I learned Python first, you should too, it's the easiest one to learn and write. Don't be discouraged early on by the big words, they mean simple things, it's just the people who wrote this wanted to sound smart. I'll help ya, if you need it.

By the end of it, this:
