At this point, the town was mostly quiet. Many ponies had gone to see what this cylinder was. Though many had also decided to stay, brushing it off as another of the crazy things that happened in the town from time to time. Though, something seemed off in the town. Royal scouts could be seen in the streets, going to and fro in their golden armor. When ponies approached them, they simply told them to go inside and stay indoors, on Princess Twilight's orders. If one were to look at them, they almost seemed scared. From street to street they went, clearing ponies and scribbling notes down into journals. Something was very wrong... Back at the crash site, the cylinder lid was still unscrewing. The metal object was huge, 30 yards across and dug straight into the ground. The top part of it was unscrewing, and as it did, the crowd of ponies got closer and closer. Suddenly, the lid fell off. There was silence as nothing happened for a full minute, and then, out of the darkness of the cylinder, a mechanical arm appeared over the rim. It held a large metal box with a lens on it, looking almost like the camera photographers used. The box moved as if it was surveying the area, even looking up Gale, before looking back down. Several ponies approached the mechanical arm, holding a white flag, hoping to communicate. Behind the mechanical arm holding the box, something else could be seen rising out of the pit. "ALOO!" The cry echoed through the air, louder than any time before, and this time, in a deeper tone. The ponies around the pit became tense.

The night dragged on, most ponies returning home from their days. Soon enough, it was morning. Though on this day, the morning silence was not broken by ponies, but by a mysterious calling. "ALOO! ALOO!" The cry echoed through the streets, repeated every few minutes. It was an unearthly sound, not of any terrestrial creature ponies knew of. The streets were soon full of activity, with ponies coming out to see what the commotion was. Rumors and talk ran wild. though soon it became clear what the sound was from. Several ponies had gone to investigate, and they returned with disturbing news. "Everypony ! Come look ! North, there is a...a....a large cylinder ! Huge ! The top, it was unscrewing ! Like something was trying to get out !" He shouted, ponies looked around and then too him again, " Its a short trot north of the town ! You all need to see this !" He shouted again, pointing his hoof northward. "ALOO!" The call rang again from the Cylinder's location. Though this time not as loud. Some of the towns ponies listened, and began to follow were he had come from. It would not be long until a crowd formed at the crash site.

Its OK I guess ? from what I remember Favorite show ?

It was now night, the sun having set in its proper place.The meteor shower continued, as it was supposed too. Though, the green star had not simply disappeared. It fell at alarming speed, silent and barely noticeable to the average pony. It passed silently over the town of Ponyville, only a hissing sound marking its decent. The cylinder landed several kilometers outside the town, in a unoccupied clearing. Very few saw the falling star, and few of those that did took heed of what they had seen. It was a different scene in Canterlot. The town was lively, the royal palace rife with activity and shouting. A contingent of soldiers had been gathered, and was now marching to Ponyville to investigate the falling star. It would take them some time to arrive, and none had any idea what they would soon face. This would be the last peaceful night for Ponyville.

The ending day was calm. The breeze was nice, the weather cool. Sounds of laughter filled the air of the small town. The sun was nearly swallowed by the horizon, with night slowly overtaking the land. Overhead, a small meteor shower was occurring, a beautiful sight seen every few weeks in the town. Though, to a keen observer, one might have noticed that one of these brief flashes of light in the sky, was green in color, and did not simply dissipate like the others. In Canterlot, a local astronomer was shocked. What he had seen was no meteor, but rather, what looked like a cylinder. He backed away from his telescope, and took a deep breath. He had to report this. With a gallop, he stormed off to the palace of Celestia, with news that would change the world. But, by the time anything could be done, it would be too late.

No one could have dreamed that we were being scrutinized, as someone with a microscope studies creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. Few ponies even considered the possibility of life on other planets and yet, across the gulf of space, minds immeasurably superior to ours regarded our planet with envious eyes, and slowly and surely, they drew their plans against us. The War of the Worlds would soon begin." -Unnamed Journalist. It started, as with any tale, on a normal Autumn day in the small village of Ponyville. The inhabitants went to and fro, living their daily lives as they had every day since, secure and happy. The sun was setting and a gentle breeze was sweeping the town. The smells of bakeries and sweets filled the air as many ponies went out to get food from the local shops.The bright red rays of the sun lit up buildings as it set on one side of the sky, and glittering stars lit up the other.Among these celestial bodies lie a red dot, the planet Mars.It was just another day ending for everypony. Millions of miles into space, on the cold red planet of Mars, many astronomers saw what could only be described as extraordinary. Bright green flashes from the planets surface, and expanding clouds of gas hurtling through space. It had been like this for the past 10 nights, a bright green flash from Mars, and a mystical green trail spewing from it. A beautiful, but somehow disturbing sight. Many, including the Princess of the land, simply waved it off as volcanic activity on the surface. How little they knew what was approaching them, and it's intentions.

New confession I have a crush on several guys at my school and no idea what to do about it D:

Umm......ok....

Ma! Get the shotgun !

Either Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon, or Halo 3. Both are amazing and memorable to me XD

My favorite has to be Star Wars: the clone Wars. Took the terrible prequels and made something very interesting out of them. The later seasons were dark, interesting, and filled with interesting Star Wars lore. The characters were almost all really cool, and we got to see some other characters from the movies expanded upon. It really had the Star Wars feel and is what really pulled me into the universe, and also really pulled me into the Clones themselves and who they were.

Baram Town ? Cyrene Falls ? Stalliongrad ? Any of those sound good ?

Sleep is nice Do you like being active ?

Cold, like my heart Same

Wanting to hug a bunch of my friends, seems like a bad day for a lot of them D:

I'm never going to hit anything again

Hey Hey Hey, I'm back in the bed
