After the discovery of strange technology, Equestria went through a technological revolution, making life seem like a dream for all of its inhabitants. It was all fun and games until a mysterious outbreak of fearsome creatures began consuming entire cities. The surviving cities came up with a drastic solution, to leave the planet surface in large floating cities called 'Arks'. It all seemed perfect, but even nice, pristine environments like the Arks had their own set of dirty secrets. Secrets that draw the line between survival and extinction.

[Author's note]
Although this story contains scary monsters and a bit of violence, it is not a Grimdark. It is more of a suspenseful adventure. It also takes place in a more technologically advanced Equestria. This was inspired by Dead Space and Alien, so you guys might spot little references in here as well.

Equestria is in ruins, Princess Celestia mysteriously vanished and the only clue she left behind was a large mosaic with the words 'Only the spark will save us' encrypted within it. It's been months since she disappeared and the kingdom is crumbling before Twilight's own eyes. She's tried her best but other than being in charge of such a large piece of land, the entire kingdom has been overrun. She feels an impulse into finding this 'spark' and sets off on a quest to obtain it, and in return, save the shattered remains of a once glorious empire.
(Story rated teen for small sequences of mild violence and suspense)

Authors note: This story is a one shot. I will continue it if you guys want me to. If no one wants me to write more, then they'll be no more story. It's entirely up to you if I continue or not.
