January 2023: "Second Chances" (Unofficial Entry)

Author's Note:

Due to the "No Crossover" rule, this shortfic couldn't be submitted as an entry, so it's more of an "unoffical entry" I wrote for fun

For anyone wondering, it's a crossover with SCP-2000

Deus Ex Machina

Sunset Shimmer read through the instructions one more time, adjusting and calibrating the last parameters on the biggest machine complex she has ever seen in her life.

Getting to this place—which she found out through an automated radio message—had been a several months long trip, but it was the only option, the only solution.

Starting it, she heard it humming and clatter, but the screen was giving comforting green lights. It finally worked.

She sighed, as she now had to wait for five days for the warm-up to finish. For the last weeks, she had at least been busy restoring the machine, but now, she had nothing to do than to consume the media stored in here.

Nonetheless, she was excited and, for the first time after her colossal mistake, had any hope for a second chance for humanity.

For the first time, she wouldn’t be the only human anymore.
