Focus on her Brain 67% Not everyone could be in attendance for the surgery, despite how much they might want to. After an initial prep on Proximus B, Fluttershy loaded what was left of Sunset Shimmer onto the Prospector.Twilight was there to hold her in total antigravity, even during transit, while Spike worked the controls. Only Node came along, since her direct involvement would be needed to get the artificial limbs working. Twilight managed the trip up without difficulty, with only a minor hiccup that…-

Study the remains. 44%Twilight was back in the hospital for the next few days. Considering the number of times she’d been bruised, bloodied, or otherwise injured since being first defrosted, she was starting to miss the beep of the monitoring system whenever she couldn’t hear it.At least there was one consolation to her visit this time: she could be there to see Applejack walk for the first time.Everypony who wasn’t involved in their research on the mysterious creature was there, though there was…-

Hunt and destroy with all resources 47%“You don’t have a choice,” Rainbow said, hacking and coughing. Whatever had happened to her during the creature’s brief attack, it was slowing her down. There were burns on the front of her armor, most concentrated near her head, and her rifle’s capacitors had all exploded. The suit seemed to have protected the rest of her from that explosion. “We have to bring it down. Once that thing gets into the buckin’ ruins, it’s gone. No way it doesn’t know we…-

Fight. 56%“So you’re saying you… opened it,” Rainbow finished, her eyebrows practically vanished into her face. “You found a mysterious machine, had no idea what it did, and you opened it.”“Yes,” Twilight said.“And it attacked you. And you think it’s coming for us.”“Yes,” Twilight tensed. “Rainbow, I know it was stupid. Right now… it’s just lucky I met you first. I trust your experience when dealing with this thing. I think its magic was similar to King Sombra, so anything…-

Wake sunset after the prosthetics are implanted. 83% “And you don’t know of anything in the medical database that might explain it?” Twilight asked, exasperated. She was in the medical bay, beside the still-healing Sunset and Applejack’s empty bed. Several days had passed since she made the decision not to force Sunset to wake.Is there anything about twilight’s condition in the database? Critical no. Fluttershy gazed at her from across the table, shaking her head sadly. “I searched the whole…-

Make him a new Pone body. 69%Twilight had taken many risks during her naval career, and she knew that allowing Iron Horse to return to the crew of the Prospector might just be the most dangerous yet. But no matter how dangerous it seemed, she just couldn’t send him away. If traveling out here makes us abandon what makes us ponies, then it isn’t worth it. We have to be true to who we are.She said nothing to Apple Bloom, not for the next day while Node and Iron Horse worked together in Node’s…-

This body was obviously falling apart, Twilight could see that as he walked slowly around the workshop. Wires occasionally sparked where he moved, and other sections showed obvious signs of wear. The basic structure of the body was the same as the one node had built for itself in those ruins, but other than that, there was very little in common. Iron Horse began by reciting many of the same details that Apple Bloom had. Their crew arriving on the ring, figuring out how to mate with its airlock, traveling…-

Offer a power matrix. 61% “Are you sure you wouldn’t rather carry this with your ‘magic’? This body’s abilities are not limitless.”“Neither is my magic,” Twilight glared sidelong at Node, who had been heavily burdened with a harness and the massive square outline of the Power Matrix, wrapped in protective cloth with the cables drawn taught. The object was a delicate stack of crystals and conductive alloys, wrapped in an outer shell of thin plastic. They weren’t meant to be transported…-

Hunt the leg. 59%Twilight wasn’t so sure this was a good idea. Even with the knowledge that Apple bloom stopped being contagious once the material of her transformation was gone, even with their full-body biohazard suits, she still had the distinct impression that they were wandering into something she didn’t understand and would do better to avoid.What does a strange machine meant to convert entire people into robotic substitutes of themselves do when the process is interrupted early?Then again, if…-
