[ Planetary Friendship ]
+---------------------------------+
A Planetary Annhilation/My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic crossover.
By Somdudewillson.

Now, before we start, I would like to inform the reader of a few things. First of all, shis is both my first work of fiction and my first fanfiction, so keep that in mind while reading this story. Secondly, as it is my first story, there will almost certainly be errors galore. Now when you spot one, feel free to mention it in a review. In fact, please do! And if it is a characterization error and/or something doesn't make sense, you have the author's permission to use caps lock and up to five (5) exclamation points. After doing so, please detail where the problem is located and how you think it could be better. I will try to be a prompt as possible in fixing any errors. Thirdly, the title probably sucks. I am well aware of this, and would like input on a better name. Now, onto the fanfiction!

Prologue

[Deep Space]
[Star System Ormal]
[Commander Osiris 252]
[Galactic Time 03-30-5000 AGW (After Galactic War) 1:75]
{Command Vessel 252}

In the endless black void of space, the vessel of commander Osiris 252 hung lifeless, orbiting a vast red giant star at the end of its lifetime. In a massive multicolored blast of light and energy, the star detonated into a supernova, hurling the inactive ship at near-light speed toward a small white point in the distance.

The energy from the stars death did more than just launch the vessel, however. The onboard power cells, long since discharged, were suddenly filled to capacity. And as the ship hurtled through space, it began the long, slow process of reconstructing itself.

{Twilight Sparkle}

Twilight Sparkle stood in her home, gazing through her telescope at a certain red star approximately five thousand light-years away. As she watched the star, she had her dragon assistant, Spike, write notes for her.

"Ready Spike? Okay, here we go, 'Day seven of observation of late-stage star Sparkle: There has been little change to the star's appearance, although it apears very close to the end of its life. The redshift and apparent brightness have remained steady.' Got all that?", Twilight Sparkle said.

Spike promptly responded in the affirmative, and proceeded to ask, "It's soo late. Can we go to bed now?".

Twilight Sparkle answered with "Yes, you head on over to bed. I'll just be a moment longer." With a sigh at the purple alicorn's absorbtion in her task, Spike headed off to his bed.

As Twilight watched the star, she gasped in surprise as she witnessed it explode in a massive supernova full of light and energy. Rushing to her noted she quickly wrote "At 10:53 PM, the star Sparkle died in a breathtaking supernova, as I watched! This may possibly be the first time anypony has witnessed the death of a star. Must check Canterlot library first thing tomorrow!". As she finally headed to her bed for some well-deserved sleep, Twilight dreampt of the wonder she had just seen and hoped that she could claim the glory of being the first pony in recorded history to witness a supernova as it occured. As she deampt of such things, it never even crossed her mind that such an event might herald the coming of something that no being on the face of Equis had ever dreampt of.

[Local Time 11-22-1000 AD 7:24 AM]

It had been six months after Twilight had witnessed the supernova created by a dying star. Today was a new day, and Celestia had just risen the sun, just like every other day. Today, however, was not an ordinary day. Today Twilight was woken from her slumber by the sound of Spike recieving a letter from Princess Celestia. Twilight, recognizing the sound, woke up right away, and picked up the letter with her magic. The letter was a summons to Canterlot, as the Princess had some very important news for her. Twilight promptly began to get ready for a trip to the castle at Canterlot.

[Canterlot]
[Local Time 11-22-1000 AD 8:39 AM]

As the train neared the station at Canterlot, Twilight once again thought back to the summons she had recieved, and wondered about what news the Princess could possibly have recieved that required her immidiate attention. Her thoughts were interrupted by the train's whistle, announcing their arrival at Canterlot. Not being able to wait a moment longer to know than she had to, Twilight ran out of the train and toward the castle. Upon her arrival, the Princess greeted her and thanked her for her prompt arrival.

Twilight asked the Princess "What news do you have? Has Discord been acting up? Has Sombra reappeared? Has somepony escaped Tartarus?"

Celesta answered her, "No nothing as immidiatlely dangerous as any of that. I have simply been tracking an object that has been nearing Equis at incredible speed, which simply vanished about 10 light-years out. According to calculations regarding its speed and tragectory, it should be impacting sometime today. I want you to watch the skies for any sign of this object."

To this Twilight responded, "I can do that. If I see any sign of it, I will have Spike send a message to you right away. Was that all?"

Once Celestia responded in the affirmative, Twilight left the castle and boarded a train back to Ponyville.

[Commander Osiris 252]
[Local Time 11-22-1000 AD 11:00 PM]
{Osiris Commander 252}

After over five thousand years of repairs and travel, the vessel had successfully rpaired itself, and parked itself in geosyncronous orbit around the planet Equis. As it orbited the planet, the commander residing within the vessel looked for an area to touch down on. After just over half an hour of searching and evaluating, te commander kept the vessel above the everfree forest and prepared to disembark.

[Everfree Forest]
[Local Time 11-22-1000 AD 11:42 PM]

The forest which was to be the landing site for the Osiris Commander was a heavily wooded area of the Everfree forest. The only sounds were the night animals hunting and avoiding hunters. Then, suddenly, a bright red light came out of the heavens, smashing into the ground with such force as to vaporize all plant life within 500 meters, as well as killing almost all animal life in that area as well. The impact generated enough heat to set the plant life at the edge of the crater on fire instantly. After the dust settled, the only thing in the center of the shallow crater created was the massive four-legged metal form of Osiris Commander 252.

{Twilight Sparkle}

The morning after the Commander's arrival an Equis, Twilight Sparkle got up as Celestia once again raised the sun over Equestria. Still blissfully unaware of the alien being which now resided on this world, Twilight was soon to discover the effects of the events which transpired late at night in the Everfree. After she got up, Twilight roused Spike from his slumber and began her normal morning routines. Several minutes later, as Twilight was munching a particularily tasty bun, there was an urgent knock at the door. Twilight trotted over to the door and opened it, and was slightly surprised when she discovered that it was Zecora at the door rather than one of her friends.

"What brings you here Zecora?" she asked.

Zecora responded in her trademark rhyming speech, "I have news that might amaze: the Everfree forest has been set ablaze".

Twilight, who was indeed slightly amazed, asked, "How far have the flames reached? How large is the fire? Is your house or Fluttershy's in immidiate danger?"

To this Zecora said "The blaze is yet far, Ponyvilles pegasi should be up to par".

Twilight then asked Zecora "Do you know what started the fire?".

Zecora then said "The origins of these flames I cannot find. But maybe one of your friends will know, the one who is kind".

Twilight then rushed off to Fluttershy's house to see if she knew what had started such an event.

[Local Time 11-23-1000 AD 7:34 AM]

When Twilight arrived at Fluttershy's house, she asked Fluttershy if she knew what had caused the fire. Fluttershy said that she wasn't sure, but that some of her animal friends told her of a big metal thing that crashed in the deeps of the forest and caused the fire. Twilight thanked her for that useful bit of information and decided that if a 'big metal thing' had crashed to the ground somewhere in the Everfree, her best bet at finding it was Rainbow Dash. And she knew just where to find her...

[Local Time 11-23-1000 AD 7:39 AM]

After a short flight over the Everfree, Twilight spotted her friend Rainbow Dash. She was, of course, helping out the firefighting pegasi. It looked like they were very close to putting out the fire, having already contained it in one place. As she flew closer, Rainbow spotted her and flew over.

"Hey there Twilight!" Rainbow greeted her, "What brings you out here?"

Twilight replied "There you are! I've been looking for you. I need to ask you a favor."

"Sure Twilight, what is it?, Rainbow asked.

"I need you to do a quick fly-over of the Everfree. Fluttershy said that some of her animal friends told her that some 'big metal thing' crashed in the Everfree and started this fire. If something did crash into the Everfree, it would have left a crater somewhere in the interior."

"Sure thing Twilight!" Rainbow replied.

[Local Time 11-23-1000 AD 7:40 AM]
{Rainbow Dash}

As Rainbow Dash zoomed over the Everfree forest, she noticed that, curiously, most of the forest seemed unharmed by the fire. She filed this curiosity away into her mental 'Curiosities of the Everfree' folder. After a very short time, she noticed that there was what appeared to be a large clearing a little ways to her right. As she banked toward it, she began to see some sort of metal structures with a red on black color scheme. Some of these structures had what looked like long cannons or groups of cannons at the top, some of the others were shorter and had big metal boxes with lots of holes or four long thin cannons evenly spaced. A few of them had a long top part that moved up and down through a hole in the ground. She flew around this clearing and the metal structures, giving them a wide berth. She flew higher to get a better view, and began to see what looked like some sort of metal town, with many metal creatures moving around and doing... something. She saw that one, the biggest, strode around on four massive metal legs and seemed to be the leader. She quickly turned back and flew off to tell Twilight of this development.
