Discord sat in his throne room and thought about the rangers he just met. He only notices there were five elements and the way the Thunder Coin had summon an Dragonzord. Something was odd with it but he needed back in order to figure it out. He already took 25% of the Green Ranger power. The first thing he need to doing is figure out who the mares where. He call forth his Telescope and look to Ponyville. He spotted the Rangers enjoying their day and secretly talking about a way to keep the Green Ranger power and get back the amount she lost. Discord listen closely and soon heard their names.
"So Twilight beside your powers, have you got anything to share?" He heard the red ranger ask.
"Not a whole lot Rainbow, still trying to figure out the coin." The one call Twilight said.
"Come on Twi, ya been at that thing for almost a year. Give it a break." The blue ranger said.
"Applejack right darling.", The black ranger agree, "You don't need to know everything."
"I know, Rarity but I can't stop. This coin is my power to morph into a ranger. I feel lost a bit when I don't use it." Twilight told the one call Rarity.
"Um, Twilight? What if the Thunder Coin unleash some kind of monster or if it make the Dragonzord go wild." The yellow ranger ask scare.
"I don't think anything will happen like that Fluttershy." Twilight told the one call Fluttershy.
"Yeah, if it does then your aunt Pinkie will keep you safe." The pink ranger said.
"I'm a year older then you." Fluttershy told the one call Pinkie.
"Hm, Twilight, Rainbow, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie. Nice names I must say." Discord said not listening on them anymore.
He stood up and started to walk around. He was think on a plan to get more of the Thunder Coin power and a good monster to do so. He snap his fingers and brought up a book that said, 'How to make monsters' and place on reading glasses and began to look through
"Hm, too weak, too strong, too cute, too weird, I don't even what to know what that is." Discord said looking through his book before find a monster.
"Ah, perfect." He said and look through his telescope again.
He look around and found what he needed.
"You know, I never made a monster out of a living thing before.", He said turning to the readers, "Oh well, first time for everything I guess.
Not you too.
"Hello, God of Chaos and Disharmony? I can break the rules at anytime." Discord said to the author.
Yeah, yeah and don't even try to make me give you a win. I had some lessons from Princess Celestia to stop you from doing anything to me.
"You're so boring." Discord said rolling his eyes.
Ok, enough with the fourth wall breaking and get ready to send that monster. I'm started to run out of ideas!
Discord snap his friends and soon his magic took on of something in the water. It raise out of the water showing to have web feet and hands it body shape like a clam. It even had a face on it.
"Time to clam some rangers up or my name isn't Clam Up." It said and started to walk to Ponyville.
Meanwhile in Ponyville, Twilight was decided to train to make sure she doesn't lose anymore of her powers. Discord monsters are far strong then Nightmare Moon's and these ones can hold her power. She was still wondering about the Thunder Coin but place all thoughts to the side. She now has to worry about keeping the rest of her powers. She decide to play her flute for a bit until Spike walk in. Spike listen for a bit before he spoke up.
"You're getting better Twilight." He said.
"Thanks Spike, it help me get my mind off the Thunder Coin." Twilight said as she put her flute away.
"Know what else clear your mind?", Spike ask before opening the door, "a nice walk through Celestia's sun."
Twilight roll her eyes and they walk outside. Spike was glad that he was getting Twilight to think about something besides her Thunder Coin. Both she and the Princesses has fill him up on who Discord was and he was after Twilight powers. Spike hope he can help in anyway possible. Their walk was cut short when Chaos Putties appear.
"Great, Discord is at it again.", Twilight groan, "Spike get somewhere safe, these are not like the Putties I fought in the past."
Spike really wanted to help but he could see Twilight's point. He ran to a near brush as Twilight started to fight the putties. Twilight punch one putty on it 'C' and then block another before hitting it 'C' as well. Twilight flip back before blocking two putties, then hitting their 'C's. Twilight was kick away by another putty, but jump up and kick another away. Twilight was able to take them down and watch as they broke apart and Spike walk up to her.
"Wow, Discord Putties look strong but that big 'C' on their chest is a big give away." Spike said surprise.
"Well, I wouldn't let him have my powers. Nightmare Moon fail to do so and so will he." Twilight said knowing the coin was under her care.
"Then I'll just take it from you!" A new voice said and explosions appear around them.
Both Twilight and Spike was throw to the ground as Clam Up step up.
"Well, looks like I found you, Green Ranger. Give me the coin and I'll leave you alone." He said.
Twilight stood up and said, "No way, I don't what Discord wants with it but I won't let him have it!"
"IT MORPHIN' TIME!"
"THUNDER!"
Twilight charge at Clam Up and threw a kick that he block. Twilight then try a punch and that too was block. She try another punch but it was block and she was knock away. Clam Up bend downwards and shoot some water at Twilight that knock her away from him. She stood up and drew her Thunder Dragger and charge again. Twilight slash him a few time before her hoof was grab and punch back. Twilight recover and ready herself as Clam Up charge at her this time. Twilight try to slash him but he dodge and slash her back. Twilight roll on the round before jumping back up. But to her surprise, Clam Up was gone! The other thing left was a hole were he once stood.
"Where did he go?" Twilight ask as she look around.
She then felt the ground shake before two hard shells pop out of the ground and clam up Twilight! Clam Up jump out of the ground and cheer.
"Yes! I caught the Green Ranger! Lord Discord will be please that I brought back his Thunder Coin and a pony he can use." He said jumping for joy.
Though he miss two things. One, the Thunder Dragger was knock out of Twilight hooves when her clam her and Two, Spike was able to find a place to hide and saw the whole thing. Spike knew he had to get the others. He grab the Thunder Dragger and ran when Clam Up back was turn to him.
"Oh yeah, I feel the power! Now I see why Lord Discord wants this coin back.", Clam Up said as he drain some of Twilight Green Ranger powers, "I should give this thing a little test ride!"
Spike ran to Sugarcube Corner hoping that the other Rangers were there. Luckily for him, they were.
"GIRLS!!!" He shouted running up to them.
"Spike?" Fluttershy ask surprise.
"What wrong Spike?" Rarity ask.
"And where Twilight?" Rainbow added.
"That why I'm here! Me and Twilight was taking a walk when we were attack by Putties and after she defeated them this Clam monster show up and grab her! Here poof!" Spike said really worry and show them the Thunder Dragger.
The rest of the rangers knew not to even question Spike about Twilight whereabouts especially if Discord was involve.
"Can ya take us there?" Applejack ask knowing that their friend was in trouble.
Spike nods and leans them to the area that they were fighting.
Back at Discord Chaos home world, Discord watch as Twilight battle and fell to Clam Up.
"Hm, Clam Up did a better job then I thought. But her still has the other five Rangers to deal with." He said to himself.
Discord lay back in his throne and think some more.
"He can drain the Thunder Coin quickly as long as he hold Twilight inside him.", He said, "but I think I need to be careful on what monster I pick to get the coin back."
Discord also knew that the other rangers will show up and save her, in fact he was counting on it.
The others ran to the area and saw a huge hole that look like something was dug up.
"This is were the fight took place?" Fluttershy ask Spike.
"Yeah, like I said a huge clam got her." Spike said conforming this was the spot.
"We better find that monster and fast." Rainbow said knowing that Twilight was in danger.
"Oh! How about we make like bananas and spit! Up that is." Pinkie pipe up.
"Not a bad plan Pinkie." Applejack agree.
"Ok, we'll spit into a team of two. Applejack, Pinkie you search near Sweet Apples Arcs." Rainbow said and the two nods.
"Fluttershy, Rarity you search around town." Rainbow said to the other two and they nod as well.
"Me and Spike will search in case we over look something." Rainbow said last.
Spike was quite surprise that he was helping with the search. He hop in Rainbow back and she took to the sky before adding, "Oh and if one of us spot the monster contact the others."
They nod and went to their areas to search for their friend.
Discord watch the rangers spit up and began to think to himself again.
"Hm, I see that the rangers are good friends. Kind of wish I had some." Discord said before smacking his face that made his head spin.
He grab it and said, "What I'm thinking? I need to have the rangers find the green ranger so I can have even more fun!"
He move his telescope to the place that the rangers where in. Applejack and Pinkie was in Sweet Apples Arcs and even got Applejack family to help. He move to Fluttershy and Rarity who was searching Ponyville and asking ponies for hints of where his monster or Twilight would be. He move to the air where Rainbow was taking it slow to search for Twilight. He lean back and decide that he would help them, after all his monsters always leaves clues. He snap his fingers and three pieces of paper appear each of them with one hint on them.
He turn to three of his Chaos Putties and said, "The rangers has spit up in order to find their missing team mate. I want you to go and give them theses hints. Fight them if you want but make sure they can see them. One group is in in Sweet Apples Arcs, another is in Ponyville and the last one is in the sky show you have to get her attraction."
The three Chaos grab the papers and look at them then Discord.
"Now go!" Discord order and they disappear.
"I'm really having too much fun!" Discord laugh.
Applejack and Pinkie almost search every inch of Sweet Apples Arcs and they sat down to rest. Soon the rest of her family join.
"So why does a monster want Twilight?" Apple Bloom ask.
"That what we are trying to figure out sis." Applejack said, knowing why the monster wants her.
"And she our friend, we won't stop until we find her." Pinkie added.
"Well, it safe to say that the monster is not here, maybe you better go see how your friends are doing in their search." Granny Smith said thinking maybe the others had better luck.
"I think we'll do that, thanks Granny." Applejack said as she and Pinkie stood up.
But before they left, they were surround by Chaos Putties.
"What in the?" Granny Smith shouted surprise.
"Putties?!" Apple Bloom shouted remembering the last time this happen.
"Their putties yes." Applejack started to say as she got ready to fight.
"But theses one are call Chaos Putties, silly filly." Pinkie said happily as she too got ready to fight.
"Chaos Putties?" Apple Bloom ask.
Either Applejack or Pinkie got the chance to tell her because they started to attack. Applejack block an punch before throwing her own that knock the putty away. She turn and kick another before kicking one more on the 'C'. She turn and land a punch knocking the putty to the ground.
Pinkie flip between two putties and kick one that charge her back and block two putties at the same time. She push them back before hitting their 'C's. Pinkie flip over one that try to sneak attack her and kick it into a near by tree causing it to hit it 'C'. She threw a roundhouse kick knocking four putties away.
Even though the Putties was suppose to attack the rangers only some went and attack the rest of Applejack family. Big Mac duck under an punch and push it back before bucking two more that sneak attack him. He turn to block a punch before another land right on him, but he shook it off and threw one back. After all, he was an Apple and apples were tough.
Granny Smith may be old, but she was still ready to defend her home. She duck under one punch and trip the putty with her front hoof and buck two more putties before her hip got stuck. One punch land on her and it fix her hip. She roll away and punch the Putty away.
Apple Bloom was having more trouble then the rest. While it too she wanted to be a ranger, she didn't want to face the danger now. Still she knew her size would be a big help. She run under one putty that try to follow her but end up flipping it self. She stop in front of one and duck as it threw a punch. She turn around and jump up to give it the hardest buck she could give it.
The Apples could see their putties get back up and try to see that Applejack and Pinkie putties was glowing before they fell apart. Both earth ponies notices the ones surrounding the apples and they race and started to fight them off. After hitting the 'C's on their chest, the putties broke apart and they regroup.
"Hoowee! Those thing will think twice before attacking Sweet Apples Arcs again." Granny Smith said and started to cheer before her hip gave out again.
"Eyep!" Big Mac said as he place his hoof on her hip to get it back to normal.
"Applejack how did you know where to hit?" Apple Bloom ask.
"This putties are far stronger then the one that attack the farm before, however, the 'C's on their chest are big give a-ways." Applejack explain.
"Yeah, just hit the 'C' on their chest and they're gone just like that!" Pinkie pipe up happily.
Apple Bloom nods in understanding before spotting something on the ground.
"What that?" She said pointing to it.
Every pony to look and saw a piece of paper on the ground. Applejack walk over and pick it up. She read then gasp.
"Pinkie! We need to get the others! Now!" Applejack said with tone that made Pinkie worry.
"Well, sorry to leave so soon, but something tell me that we might know where Twilight is." Applejack said as the two Earth Ponies left the farm, leaving rest of the apples confuse.
Rarity and Fluttershy was still searching around Ponyville asking if anypony if they seen Twilight or maybe something that look out of place. So far no luck. Rarity was just thinking about having her and Fluttershy meet up with the others when she saw Chaos Putties head their way.
"It seems Discord is trying to stop us." Rarity said as she got ready to fight.
"But why? All we are doing is looking for our friend." Fluttershy ask as she hind behind Rarity.
"Fluttershy dear, I think that why Discord is stopping us. He knows if we find Twilight then we can stop him." Rarity said unknowing that he was trying to help.
Fluttershy nods and ready herself to fight. The Chaos Putties got closer and attack them. Fluttershy duck under two putties that try to punch her and sweep kick them before hitting the 'C's on them. She turn to block another putty before hitting it 'C' too. She then flip back and took to the air where she dive into a few putties hitting their 'C's.
Rarity flip away before she reach a flower stand that had three earth ponies that care for the flowers. They scream when the saw The Chaos Putties and duck under their stand. Rarity started to block two putties before kicking them away. Using her magic, she remove the flower and grab the pots that was holding them. She use the pots to block the putties attacks and hit their 'C's. A few pots broke but Rarity was able to knock them away.
"Sorry about the pots, Lily." Rarity said to one of the Flower mares.
They soon fell apart and Fluttershy notices a paper on the ground. She pick it up and gasp. Rarity walk over and read it as well. She gasp as well and said, "We need to find the others!"
Rainbow Dash flew though the air and scan the ground encase her friends miss or over look something. Spike was helping by looking as well before he spotted something.
"Hey Rainbow, what going on there?" He ask pointing to the scene.
Rainbow look down and saw the Chaos Putties.
"What Discord up to now?" She said to herself and flew down to stop them.
Rainbow land a punch on one of them before bucking two more that charge at her.
Rainbow turn to Spike and said, "Spike get some where safe. I don't know what Twilight will think if we let something happen to you."
Spike knew that fighting the Chaos Putties was beyond him and hop off and hind behind a tree, but he didn't like it. He help Twilight fight the Putty Ponies when Luna was still Nightmare Moon. He took out the Thunder Dragger and look it over. He could use it to save Twilight, but he didn't know how.
Rainbow duck under a putty kick before throwing a punch hitting the 'C' and kick another in the 'C' as well. She block two putties at the same time and they got luckily and land a kick on her. Rainbow flip away and hop back to her hooves and kick another that charge at her. Rainbow block one putty and punch other before kicking the one she had. She flip back as one putty try to kick her and she took to the skies and dive bomb at them knocking them down.
There wasn't a whole lot of Chaos Putties and they broke apart. Spike walk out from his hiding place still looking over the Thunder Dragger before he step on something. He look down and saw a piece of paper. He pick it up and gasp. He run up to Rainbow at the time as the rest caught up.
"Whoa! What going on?" Rainbow ask surprise to see all her friends rush up.
"We found a clue to where Twilight is!" They all said at the same time.
Spike took the two papers and look over all three before he put them together.
"Hey, Discord not trying to stop us from finding Twilight, he helping us." He said.
"What?!" The rangers shouted.
"All three hints is pointing to the once place you girls love hanging out." Spike told them.
"Sugarcube Corner?!" Pinkie gasp.
"We got get there!" Rarity said knowing that the cakes was in trouble.
"We better morph. If Twilight is morph as well..." Rainbow started to say.
"And she is." Spike added.
"...then we better too." Rainbow finish.
The rest nods and look around, except for Spike who they trust, there was no pony around.
"IT MORPHIN' TIME!" Rainbow shouted.
"GENEROSITY!"
"LAUGHTER!"
"HONESTY!"
"KINDNESS!"
"LOYALTY!"
Once morph Rainbow turn to Spike and said, "Spike you better stay here. Discord monsters are a lot more dangerous then Nightmare Moon's."
Before Spike could protest, the rangers ran off. Spike knew he wasn't going to stand around. Twilight was in trouble and he was going to help. After all he had to return the Thunder Dragger to her.
In no time the rangers reach Sugarcube Corner and spotted Clam Up who are the cakes tie up. Pinkie was really mad. The Cakes are family to her and she was willy to free them.
"Hold it right there!" Rainbow shouted.
Clam Up turn spotted the rangers and jump in surprise.
"WHAT?! But how did you find me?!" Clam Up thought the rangers would never check the place they hang out.
"That doesn't matter. Now let Element Green go!" Applejack said using the cover name because of the cakes.
"And the Cakes too." Pinkie add.
"Ha! You want them? Then come get them!" Clam Up challenge them.
All the rangers ready themselves and charge at him. Rainbow threw kick that Clam Up dodge and punch Pinkie away that was going for a punch. Applejack grab one arm as Fluttershy grab the other. Rarity ran up and land a kick but was throw back when a green lighting cover him. It also threw off the other two. Pinkie charge again and land a punch but was shock off two. Rainbow drew her Element Sword and charge at Clam Up. Clam Up grab the sword and send the power he was using to Rainbow, shocking her and throwing her back.
Spike finally caught up and saw that the rangers was fighting Clam Up and spotted the Cakes near the fight. Knowing that they were too close to the fight, he sneak past it and reach the Cakes. He place a finger to his lips and blew a small flame that burn through the ropes. Once they were free, they nod to Spike in thanks and got somewhere safe with the twins who was watching Pinkie fight. Spike turn back to the fight and saw the Rangers get knock away as green lighting hit them.
"HAHAHA! Thanks to the Thunder Coin, I'm way too strong! If fact I think I'll drain your friend dry!" Clam Up laugh.
Spike knew he had to do something. He place his claws to his head only for something to hit him.
"Ow!" He said quietly and saw that he still had the Thunder Dragger.
He knew there has to be something. He decide to play it. After all, he got his own flute. He raise to his lips and started to play. Soon the theme that actives the Thunder Armor full the air and Clam Up stop.
"What?!' He shouted as he felt something moving inside him.
Spike kept playing and soon all eyes was turn to him. Clam Up try to stop him, but he felt something or someone try to open the top of him. Spike soon started to play the tune that summon the Dragonzord and Clam Up felt his clam mouth be push open. Spike kept playing until they all saw Twilight trying to push out. She kept trying as Spike kept playing. Soon Twilight was free and jump out, flip a bit before landing on her hooves. Twilight stood up as the others rush up to her glad to see she was all right. Spike rush up as will and smile, glad to see she was alright as well.
Twilight turn to Spike and smile under her helmet. She knee down and said, "Thank young dragon. It not everyday that some pony help an Element Ranger."
Spike knew what she was doing and said back, "Your welcome and you drop your dragger. That how i was able to tell the others what happen to you."
Twilight took her Thunder Dragger back and nods her head the six rangers turn to Clam Up who was scare now that the Thunder Coin was no longer his.
"Glad to have you back, Element Green." Rainbow said placing a hoof on Twilight.
"I'm afraid I lost more of my power. I might have trouble fighting this time." Twilight said feeling the Thunder Coin power was weaker then before.
"No worries dear.", Rarity said, "We find a away."
"Yeah, but first we got a monster to destroy!" Pinkie said.
"Right! Ok Rangers, let put them together!" Rainbow said as they all drew their Element weapons.
"Element Ax!" Rarity shouted flipping it around and move the handle to the base before throwing it in the air.
"Element Bow!" Pinkie shouted flipping her around before throwing it in the air and it combine with the Element Ax.
"Element Lance!" Applejack shouted and spit the lance in half before throwing them to combine at the end of the bow.
"Element Draggers" Fluttershy shouted and flip her before throwing them. They went right next to the lances half's.
"Element Sword!" Rainbow shouted and jump up and grab the Element Ax before placing the Element Sword on top.
Rainbow land on the ground and aim at Clam Up. The others place their hooves on Rainbow's shoulders.
"ELEMENT CANNON! READY!" They shouted.
Though the coin was weak, Twilight knew it still had power to help. She place her hoof on Rainbow as well.
"Added with the power of Thunder!" She said.
"FIRE!" The rangers shouted and the Element Cannon fire a powerful beam that hit Clam Up.
"No! This can't happen! How did they find me!" Clam up shouted and fell to the ground and explode.
"My Little Ponies. Victory is ours!" Rainbow said as they took their weapons back.
A little bit later Rainbow and Twilight was trying out some training hope that the next time there an attack and Twilight lost more of her powers she can have a better time fighting. They were cut short when Snip and Snails walk up with a group of ponies follow them.
"This got to be good." Pinkie said getting the other to notices what was going on.
"OK, we figure getting in danger was out of the question but there one idea we have. We hind behind the scenes and took pictures of the Element Rangers fighting. Now all we got to do is see who fight just like them. So anypony want to try?" Snip said then ask.
He started to walk forward feeling proud he could know who the rangers are and was about to show the pictures when a ball move in his path and he step on it. His hoof shot out from under him and he lost his balance and fell head first into a picnic basket. Everypony laugh as Snails try to help him him up. Spike walk up and pick up the pictures.
"Hey these are nice shots!" He said after Snip got his head out.
"Ready?!" He said and started to walk up to him.
Then Spike fake sneeze and burn the pictures with his flames, really sending them to Celestia with a note he made knowing that she can do something about them. Snip was really shock to see what happen and grew angry at him.
"What you did that for?!" He yell.
"I'm a friend of the rangers and they told me that they can't be discover or their power would be lost." Spike said winking to the others getting what he was doing.
"Friend or not, you won't get away with that!" Snip said and try to land a punch on him.
Spike move to the side and Snip fail to notices that Spike was standing next to a hill and roll down it. He kept going and crash into another picnic basket and had the food land on him as everypony laugh again, even Snails.
Spike walk up to them and said, "I send the picture to Celestia so she can deal with them. Send a little note too to let her know what going on."
"Thanks Spike. I really wish I wasn't so careless about my powers." Twilight said feeling sad.
"Don't worry Twi. Like I said, we'll find a away to get your power backs." Rainbow said.
"Yeah, once a ranger, always a ranger." Fluttershy added.
Twilight made lost even more of her power. But she wasn't going to let Discord monsters get the rest of it. Hopefully they can find a away to recharge it with out having to use Chaos Energy.
To be continue...
