- >Chaos runs through the city.
- >You're just standing in the confusion.
- Earthquake
- >ANOTHER ONE, SHIT.
- >Need to hide, but where?
- >You ran past the panic and terror and covered your head as you try to find some cover.
- Screams
- >You hear something musical, but it was a horrible tune.
- >Almost off key.
- >You calmly realized that it's contributing to the horror happening in the streets.
- WII-U WII-U WII-U
- >Police Sirens come at a distance.
- >Authorities and civilians helping each other out.
- >Your curiosity on what is happening grows as every second goes by.
- >Finally, you muster up enough courage to stand up and walk to the source of it all.
- >Avoiding rampant cars, road cracks and several others.
- >Alas, you saw...it.
- >A glowing light of blue and brown floating forward in the sky.
- >Rain falls down on our city.
- >The falling water contributes to the beauty of the light
- >But it's beauty lasts for so long, as it begins to trash the upper parts of nearby buildings.
- >It uses its voice to wreck havoc. You don't think the police can handle this immediately.
- >"OUT OF THE WAY!"
- >You look behind to the voice of a girl rolling a huge dumpster directly at your location.
- >OH SHIT
- >You dodged out of the way. The girl seemed to have been in a hurry.
- >Debris falls from every building.
- >And just when it seemed that chaos had reigned over the city.
- >Something out of the blue appears from one of the rooftops of the buildings.
- >Thunder rolls on as a silhouette of a man jumps from the falling debris to mid-air
- >A man that fearlessly grabs on to the floating light.
- >The light fights it, struggling with it.
- >You asked yourself, what man jumps off a building to fight an unknown entity.
- >But it didn't matter. Someone's actually doing something. You're just standing there watching like a child watching television.
- >The brave man grabs hold of the light in a choking position.
- >They both struggle, throwing punches and slaps all around...
- >...as the both go crashing down.
- >go crashing down.
- >No...wait they're going up midway...and they're crashing down again
- >They land...
- >...and then the earth shakes as the ground shatters.

- City Park
- >Worst. Stalker. Ever.
- >Feeling bummed, walk to the park
- >Well the day wasn't all that bad. You got to see some action
- >That vigilante. You can't stop thinking about him. He's so mysterious
- >Still, it's a shame you didn't get to find out what's got Lyra so cheery when she's with Norman
- >He's not in a relationship with her, and neither she with her. What's their secret?
- >Alas, you look up to see a bright shining light in the sky
- "Wow, look at that star, so bright."
- >The star grows
- "Is this a new type of star?"
- >It grows bigger
- >Your curiosity got the best of you
- >You stand in awe as the star grows brighter, in size and in light
- >At the last second, you smile faded away
- >You realized it was a meteor
- >And it's heading at your direction
- "OH GOD"
- >[explosion sounds]
- >The meteor lands in front of you
- >Your body recoils towards a tree
- >As you lie down the shade, you begin to fade into unconsciousness
- >But fate had a different plan for you
- >Your school bag flew to your face, waking you up out of shock
- >There was no sound. Only the bright light of a rock got your attention
- >At this point, fear starts to flow through your insides
- >You thought to yourself "You either run away or investigate"
- >Alas, your curiosity got the best of you
- >The light slowly fades away, revealing one small location on the huge rock
- >It shines, catching your eye's attention
- >You break through the fragile rock to get a better look
- "It's beautiful"
- >It's a necklace made seemingly of silver
- >It's flawless complexion reflects your face from it's extremely thin chain
- >The cherry of the cake, the small round symbol that chains it
- >You're soon distracted by red and blue lights flashing far away
- "The feds!"
- >You look again at the artifact. It's the moment of truth
- >You either leave it here or take it with you
- >...
- >When's the next time you'll ever get a souvenir from space?
- >You clutch it in your hand and you roll out, running fast from the scene
- >You look back for a second after running. You're already out of sight
- >Sirens already here
- >You simply laugh while briskly walking inconspicuously
- >Deciding not to look at the artifact as to not attract any creeps or hobos looking to steal it, you head on down home with a grin on your face

- Present Time
- Police Rooftops
- >You gaze upon what seems to be a celestial monster floating in the sky
- >Purple calls again to talk to you
- >"NORMAN! WHAT IS THAT?"
- "Either she's an alien hell bent on causing chaos, or that's the one who got to the artifact first
- >Purple stayed quiet for a moment, then tells you
- >"Norman! I have an idea. Back in Equestria we had a similar problem like this"
- >Great. More tales from the land of talking horses
- "Uhh, sure Purple. What do you have in mind"?
- >"We have to gather all our friends and use the elements of harmony to defeat this unknown evil!"
- >Here we go again
- "Purple, for the last time, we don't even know where these "Elements of Harmony" are! They're not even real"
- >Thunder and lightning appears in the sky. I hope this phone doesn't explode, because I don't want the last thing I hear is about Purple's insanity
- >"T-then we need to gather our f-"
- "Look Purple, just help out Lyra with the body in the dumpster. I'll think of something soon"
- >"What bod- *beep*
- >You hang up and begin to breathe
- >Alright, I need to get closer
- >You jump from building to building, avoiding lightning and collapsing structures
- >The light in the sky continues to float around, screaming like a banshee
- >At long last, you get close enough.
- "GAH..."
- >An earthquake shakes the building like standing on a bull in a rodeo
- >You immediately grabbed hold of the nearest pole to your position
- >It's a lightning rod
- >You turn your attention to the woman of the light
- >Her red eyes turn to you as well
- >She seems to be mindless of what's happening, like a zombie
- >Yet her eyes seems to show fear
- >Oh god she's screaming at you
- > ~AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH~
- >Her voice releases sound waves. You hold on tightly to the lighting rod as she tries to push your body away
- >Your ears can't handle the screech of madness. You do the only thing in your mind
- >You take the lightning rod and ripped it off its post
- >Your ring flashes as you prepare to throw the rod like a javelin
- >Your feet stuck to the ground as you survive through her scream
- >Finally, she stops, and you took it as the opportunity of the minute
- >You took a deep breath, held fast and THREW IT
- "GOTCHA!"
- >The lightning rod stabs the woman of the light on the shoulder
- >She screams to the skies in pain
- >Your heart beats faster, you lose slight control of your body
- "Alright, now I just to think of a way to bring her down"
- >Plan A: You rope her to the building
- >Obviously your lack of Applehat-like skills plus the lack of ropes on the top of buildings prevents plan a
- >Plan B: You try to make her fall in love with you, causing her to do your bidding until her period starts
- >I don't even have a girlfriend, more so make an elemental fall for you
- >Plan C: Manual Solution
- >50 floors high. One wrong jump will kill you
- >But you don't see any other way. The longer you spend thinking the more she does damage to the city
- >Goddammit

- Vinyl's house
- >Arrive at the home of the city's youngest DJ
- >Your best friend is letting out some beats by the living room
- "Hey Vinyl!"
- >Her headphones blocks your voice
- >She's busy bobbing her head up and down, mixing instrumentals and such with her DJ equipment
- >You lift her left headphone and screamed
- "YO SCRATCH!"
- >"FUCK!"
- >You laugh as she falls to the floor in surprise
- >"TAVIA YOU ASS!"
- "Sorry hahaha"
- >"How'd you get in here anyway?"
- "You gave me a spare, remember?"
- >"...oh yeah, now do you mind telling me why the hell did you interrupt me?
- "You wouldn't BELIEVE what I found on the park!"
- >"Nudists?"
- "No! You see I was stalking Norman, and then that superhero from TV and then a huge meteor appeared and crashed at the park. I was so scared but I managed to find this piece of space jewelry!"
- >You grabbed the artifact from where you hid it and gave it to Vinyl
- >"Wow...wait you stalked WHO!?"
- >Damn, must have slipped from my tongue"
- "I...uhh...NEVERMIND THAT LAST PART"
- >You blush for a moment
- >Vinyl shrugs it off, saying "Whatever"
- "Listen, I'll go and find a box in your room!"
- >You rush upstairs
- >"TAVIA! STAY OUT OF MY ROOM!"
- >Nope, didn't hear her
- >Enter Vinyl's room, find any small box
- >20 seconds later
- *BOOM*
- >WHAT THE HELL!
- >You immediately went down the flight of stairs
- >You see Vinyl glowing in a bright light
- >She's wearing the artifact
- "Oh god, VINYL!"
- >She looks at you with her red scared eyes. Her headphones have detatched from the equipment. The music fills the room
- >The artifact is flashing, synchronized with the sound of Vinyl's music
- >"T-TAVIA!"
- >Her voice changes, as if she's speaking to an electric fan
- >She moves left and right, finally going outside her door
- >She kneels to the ground, she glows brighter by the second
- "VINYL! WHAT'S GOING ON!"
- >It's too late. She can't hear you now.
- >Her body floats upward faster than a gliding eagle
- "VINYL WHAT'S HAPPENING!?"
- >Grey clouds fill the dark night
- >Vinyl lights up the sky
- >And then she screams...
- Be Norman
- Present Time
- >You ready yourself to make a jump
- >You breathe heavily, for you're about to jump towards a floating entity of unknown origins in an attempt to stop her chaotic madness
- "Alright...One shot"
- >You run backwards, then readied yourself for the last time
- >The lady of the light takes the lighting rod from her shoulder, holding it in her hand
- "GRAAAAAAHH!"
- >You run in the direction of the lady, and jumped to her reach
- >Lighting strikes by your left, causing a sense of fear
- >But it didn't matter. You need to protect the city, for that's what being a hero is. For the people
- >...I am so killing Brad later
- "HMMPH"
- >You grabbed hold of her breasts
- "AAHH"
- >You retract your hands and held fast to her ankle
- >Your weight pulls her down
- >30 floors, you're on top of her
- >The falling stops and she tries to propel upward
- >You climb to up to her shoulder and punched her lights out
- >She struggles, clawing half your mask off
- >You punch her stomach with half- strength
- >Fighting in midair, she again releases another deafening screech in an attempt to shake you off
- >You held tight to her arm as she screams to the sky
- >Her sound wave propels her down
- >15 floors
- >Lightning strikes once again, this time hitting the lightning rod that she held in her hand
- >You are both electrocuted in midair, crashing down
- >Your strength leaves your body as she goes on top of you
- "This is gonna hu-"
- *CRASH*
- >Both her body and yours crash to the ground
- >You lay down, with your bloody, tattered costume
- >The lady stands up, electricity flowing through her body
- >You lay down, dizzy and shaking
- "uughha"
- >You moan in pain as the woman sparks lightning
- >Civilians scream in fear and panic once more
- >Your consciousness fades away as the lady begins to strike you, one last time
