adventure Into Limbo

[Evil Pink One 12,978]

The Land of Equestria, where mythical creatures live. A land blessed by magic, ruled by powerful creatures, who rule among their kind. Balance was achieved not so long ago, but it’s past seems to hunt them now… 

Meanwhile in Equestria. There lies a forest filled with lustrous vegetation and flora. Hidden within these forest, lies a hidden infrastructure that resembles a forth or encampment made of cement and concrete, protected by a wall made of chains. Within these walls, creatures of equine descent, seems to occupy and lightly guard this forth.

Inside these encampments, lies within a team of equine, monitoring multitudes of screens which seems to be spying the whole civilization within the realms of Equestria. 

But because the land of Equestria is at peace and found it’s balance, these equine’s life of spying has become mundane and boring. No one within these facilities has taken their job seriously for years now.
 Most have already left the spy business and started their own new life now. Some are just stuck there for they have no idea what to do with their life. Truly peace had made them complacent and careless.

One specific equine seems to be taking his job lightly and is drinking what seems to be tea. For unknown reasons, equine hooves have the ability to grasp objects similar to hands. 
The Equine noticed that one of the plugs are disconnected. Bored and nothing to do, the equine went near the plug and scanned the area where it might have somewhere to connect. 
Near by, he spots what seems to be the other end for the plug, in which he plugs it in.

Because of this equine’s actions, their boring ordinary day of spying would change. For one of the machine’s signal started to blink red.
Every equine within that room were stunned by the sight of the red light, not because it was too bright that one can’t look away from it, but because that signal never happened before.
Not a single Equine was able to move or do what was necessary for this kind of situation.

Luckily.

One equine, who seems to be in charge of that facility took action.
The Equine stood up from his table and commanded.
“Quickly! Get me the manual for this machine!”
The other equines under him frantically searched the manual for this machine which is named,(MFFR) Magic Flow Fluctuation Radar.
One equine was able to find this dusty book inside their shelves. “SIR! This book has the same name as that machine… I think it’s this one?”
“Well hand it over!” As soon as the equine handed the book to it’s superior, they quickly searched the book for answers.

The others waited nervously for their superior for answers.
The room’s atmosphere has become silent and tense.
Others are phasing at where they stand, some are biting their hooves, while others are just there wondering to what’s going on.
But before the boss could find out what has happened from their mundane life, one of the workers from outside barged inside hastily.

“ BOSS!!!” the stallion shouted.

“ Holy cow! Have you no manners! Can’t you see this blasted machine keeps on blinking on and off and on and off none stop! It’s driving everyone here crazy!” The equine in charge scolded.

“I’m so sorry chief but the other departments are having the same problems as well. Our MFFR is also running wild of signals and Look!” The pony presented a photo to the chief.
“One of our S.m.i.l.e. representatives in Yakyakistan has reported a strange anomaly on the northern most parts of Equestria.”
The photo shows a strange tear or portal appeared on the outskirts of Mount Everhoof.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew the manual to a certain page which the chief caught sight of.
As he reads the chapters, his complexion starts to go pale.
He looks at the many monitors of their screens and saw that some of the secluded places of Equestria has tears or portal popping in and out.

 “Quickly! We must warn Princess Celestia!” As his words echo through the halls, the place has gone silent. 
Only the beating ambiance of red was not silenced.

“…Well!? What are you ponies waiting for! Did you ponies not hear what I said!?”
The equines looked at each other in shock and confusion. It seems no one wants to point out something to their boss and is just waiting for someone else to point out the reason why everyone is just standing around doing nothing.
Luckily the scrub, who also found the book answered the chief.
“Umm… boss? Our organization doesn’t exist anymore, remember? Princess Celestia wants no connection and liability with us since that bug bear incident.
“ S.M.I.L.E.(Secret Monster Intelligence League of Equestria) should always remain a secret. And besides, we don’t even know where she went sir. Plus Princess Twilight is our ruler now and she hates us for some reason…”

“Tsk, Agent Sweetie Drops… Such a disappointment.” The chief angrily replied while slamming his table.

“ Contact the Manehattan, Pizzeria Branch now! Our best operatives there can handle this situation!” sadly another pony would give the bad news to the chief.
“Sir that place was closed down. The princess found out that we unofficially joined her into SMILE, and named their group to FROWN (Friendship Ranger of Worldwide Neighgotiations), which the princess was not too keen on…”

“ I guess that’s the reason,” the scrub replied.

“BLAST IT ALL!!!” The chief’s reply to his situation.
“We can’t just sit here and do nothing!... Yes I know we’ve been doing nothing for years, even when Equestria was invaded before… But this time! This time is different. We must send word to the Princess! Who in our agency can we send, that has a close relationship to the Princess? ”
One of the equines who was looking at the list of their agents, raised her hoof and answered. “Agent, Lyra Heartstrings is a close friend to the princess.”
“Thank Celestia for this blessing! Quickly! Contact the agent and pass the information post haste! Equestria is in a level 10 threat.”

“Is that high?” the scrub asked.

“The highest threat Equestria ever faced was only at level 8, and that was King Grogar.”
