- >You are an MQ-9 Reaper.
- >Currently, you are lazily flying around over...
- >Your navigation systems say this is 'Ohio City, Cleveland, Ohio', generally speaking.
- >Specifically, you are over Monroe Cemetery, on Monroe Avenue.
- >Your pilot, who is many miles away flying you, commands your camera to look down.
- >The cemetery is filled with multicolored fluffy things.
- >You don't know what they are.
- >Not that you are capable of the concept of unawareness, as you are not an AI.
- >There are things on your wings.
- >The pilot commands you to drop one.
- >You do this, because you are a good UCAV.
- >Not that the concept of obedience is something you can acknowledge.
- >The pilot then orders you to circle this area, aiming your TV cameras at the ground.
- >The thing you just dropped, a long, narrow tube, hits the ground.
- >It explodes with a great bloom of white heat that saturates your IR sensors.
- >The fuzzy things on the ground scatter slowly.
- >Many of them now have greatly increased heat signatures.
- >They waddle into other fuzzy things and spread their heat around.
- >In a few minutes, it seems like the entire surface directly below you is on fire.
- >The heat begins to spread to the trees in the cemetery.
- >After a few minutes more, it spreads to the structures across the street.
- >If you were capable of consciousness and deductive reasoning, you'd be pretty sure this is not supposed to be happening.
- ------
- >You are the guy piloting the MQ-9, and your services are in high demand since the fluffy ponies knocked down that C-17.
- >You dropped something called the Clean Lightweight Area Weapon on the fluffy ponies occupying the cemetery.
- >It's a device that's still technically in testing, but Cleveland is a great proving ground now.
- >The good news? It worked perfectly.
- >The whole cemetery was covered in cleansing explosive power.
- >The bad news? It caught some of them on fire.
- >You watched as the fluffy ponies hugged each other, spreading the flames.
- >When the trees caught on fire, you called over your commander to watch.
- >When the houses began catching on fire, you both realized there was a problem.
- >You direct the MQ-9 to follow the conflagration as it spreads toward St. Ignatius High School.
- >Not only are buildings going up, but so are more fluffy ponies.
- >The high school ignites.
- >You pass word along to First Air Force about the...situation.
- >Two F-15Cs from 120th Fighter Wing are nearby.
- >They report that they're loaded with CBU-87s.
- >You have an idea: what if they used their cluster bombs to snuff out the fire?
- >Hell, the Russians can do it for oil rigs.
- >The idea goes up the chain of command and comes back down with approval.
- >The Eagles are vectored toward the high school, and you position the MQ-9 out of their way with a good view of their drop zone.
- >You watch as the ordnance comes down, exploding and scattering sub-munitions.
- >Eight hundred puffs of heat riddle the flames. Most of them do go out.
- >Oh...fluffy ponies are flying through the air.
- >Fluffy ponies on fire. They pelt unburned vegetation and structures.
- >Well, that probably wasn't supposed to happen.
- ------
- >You are a blue male pegasus fluffy named Puffy.
- >You and thousands of your fluffy friends were heading toward Spaghetti Land.
- >Your owner was yelling at you not to go, but you didn't have much choice.
- >A big herd came by while you were outside playing, and you got swept away.
- >After hundreds of miles, you reached the human place where the spaghetti was supposed to be.
- >There were so many fluffy friends, however, you couldn't move!
- >Your herd decided to rest in a grassies place with lots of gray rocks and big trees.
- >There were lots of other wingie friends playing with you.
- >Even though you hadn't found the spaghetti yet, you were still happy.
- >It was your turn to help watch the baby fluffies when you heard the buzzy noise above you.
- “Puffy see fwy fwiend! Wan' gif huggies!”
- >All the wingie friends agreed with you, trying fly up to it.
- >Even the babies with wingies tried, chirping 'fwiend!'
- >None of you could reach it, which made you all sad.
- >Something fell off of it! It's giving you a present!
- “Yay! Fwiend gif goo' fwuffies sgettis!”
- >It didn't look like spaghetti, though. It was a tube thing.
- >The spaghetti is probably inside!
- >You wait for it to open as it falls.
- >It opened, but spaghetti didn't come out.
- >Fire and pain and suffering came out.
- >Now, you're running from the herd because they're engulfed in flames.
- “Nuuuuuu! Puffy no wike wawm!”
- >You once burned your hoof on the hot human nummies-maker circle.
- >It hurt you for a long time afterward. You know hot is bad.
- >You run past charred corpses and babies on fire, trying to get to the human houses across the grey path.
- >You'll be safe there.
- >Oh, the fluffies with the fire hugging them are hugging other fluffies without fire!
- >Now the fire is all over the place!
- >You keep running past human homes. You still hear the buzzy noise above you.
- >It's following you!
- “Fwy fwiend, pwease hewp goo' fwuffies!”
- >It doesn't seem to hear you, but it's still following you.
- >You finally get to a place that has a big human home.
- >The fluffies behind you run past you as you hide.
- >They're all on fire, screaming and making hurt poopies and crying.
- >You want to hug them, but you can't, because you don't want their fire.
- >The big human home is on fire now. You have to move.
- >Fluffies rush around you. You get swept up in the tide again.
- “Nuuu, Puffy wan' wun! Wingies hewp Puffy fwy 'way!”
- >After a while you hear the loudest noises ever.
- >They make all the poopies come out of you.
- >You briefly see two fly friends streak past at unfathomable speed.
- “Fas'! Fwy fwiend fas', hewp Puffy go fas'!”
- >More noises come, even louder than the last.
- >Pops and bangs and booms and fluffies are flying!
- >Even ones without wings are flying!
- “Wan' fwy! Wan' fwy 'way!”
- >You get your wish. An explosion sends you tumbling through the air.
- >Your back half is torn off, and the rest of your body is shattered.
- “No...no wan' owwies fwy...”
- >You land on a pile of fluffy friends that are burning. You, too, catch on fire.
- “No wike...no wike dis...”
- >All you wanted was spaghetti.
- >This was definitely not supposed to happen.
