It was what seemed a regular day on the second half of the Grand Line called the "New World".
The sky was clear blue with a few clouds, and as was the sea. Monkey D. Luffy was sitting at the head of the Thousand Sunny relaxing with his friend Tony Tony Chopper, the reindeer doctor of the crew, while thinking back of their previous adventure beneath the depths of the ocean in Fishman Island. Usopp, the sniper of the crew, and Brook, the skeleton musician were busy fishing at the starboard side of the Sunny, while Zoro was busy working out in the Crow's Nest.

Nico Robin was sitting on deck in a chair with a parasol covering her from the direct sunlight, while Sanji serves her a refreshing cold drink in a coconut shell, as Franky was busy pounding away at his workshop.

Suddenly, Nami runs up to the rest of the crew...

"I getting a weird vibe everyone." She said to the crew.

"Is something wrong Nami?" Robin asked with concern.

"I feel, a storm coming.... Zoro, Brook! unfurl the sails. Franky prepare four barrels of cola! We're in for a massive typhoon!"

"OOOHHH, sounds fun!" Luffy calls out as Chopper looks at him with worry.

"Fun?! Scary is more like it!" Chopper complained.

"Aw, don't worry Chopper, you're a man now right? A brave pirate of the sea, like all of us!" Luffy replied as he pats the little reindeer in his diminutive form on the back.

"Uh, yeah, that's right, I'm a brave pirate of the sea!" Chopper said as he blushes and does his happy dance.

All the Straw Hats scramble as they prepare themselves for the oncoming storm.

"I don't see a single storm cloud in the sky Nami." Usopp said as he peers through his telescope.

"It's not coming from the sky, it's coming from the sea beneath us." Nami replied to the sniper.

"Huh?" Usopp said dumbfounded. "Well, it is the second half of the Grand Line. Weirder things have happened."

"OF COURSE! You dare to doubt our lovely NAMI-SWAAAAN!!??" Sanji interjected angrily, while his eye turned into a heart shape.

"Just get ready everyone." Nami said, just as the sea currents begin to turn violent.

"Here it comes... and it's SUUUUPPPAAAHHH!!!" Franky yells, as he poses his arms together in an angle.

"I see it, I see it, even though I have no eyes. Yohohohoho!! Skull Joke!" Brook cracks as he laughs.

"SKULL JOKE!" Luffy joins in.

Nami smacks them both over the head with her clima-tact. 

"No time to goof around, it's coming." She angrily yells at the two.

Zoro jumps to the main mast and pulls the rope to furl the sails up, as Franky prepares the cola barrels.

"We're ready Nami." Zoro says as Robin fastens all the loose objects with ropes using her Flower Flower fruit to sprout hands everywhere to tie up all loose ends.

And then, it hit. Giant tidal waves that were almost as high as the sky itself. They began to toss the Thousand Sunny around like a toy in a bathtub. The waves continue to crash into the ship, as the crew hang on to dear life.

"All hands, brace for lift off!" Franky yells, as he activates the rear engine of the ship.

"COUP DE BURST!"

The Sunny then flies through the air, as the waves seem to come alive and chase the ship.
The waves then begin to turn into what looked like tentacles, watery tendrils that begin to attack each of the crew members.

"Gomu Gomu No, Gattling Gun!" Luffy yells as he lets out a hundred fist blows at the watery tendrils, and they dissapate on impact.

"108 Phoenix Pound Cannon!" Zoro slashes at more tendrils as they are repelled.

As the sunny flies, it lands in a giant pillar of water that seems to bring the ship back down to sea level, but then it suddenly begins to rain, electricity.

Luffy is struck, but with his body being rubber, thanks to the Rubber Rubber Fruit, it doesn't faze him.

Another strike however, sends a massive wave onto the ship, as all nine pirates are caught in it. Thankfully, Sanji, using his Air Walk technique, save Robin before she was swept overboard, but Chopper wasn't so lucky.

"CHOPPER!" Luffy screamed out to the doctor.

Chopper began struggling to keep afloat in the churning waters, but due to him eating the Human Human Fruit, it was impossible. Luffy tried to stretch is arms out to grab the reindeer, but the ship was rocked when another giant wave hit.
Usopp tried to throw the life preserver out to Chopper, but he was swept too far out. 

At this point, Chopper had completely sunk under water. Zoro, Sanji, and Franky dove in, swimming at top speeds in an attempt to rescue their friend. Brook also foolishly dove into the ocean, only to realize too late, that he was a devil fruit user. He also began to sink.

Chopper can see the trio swimming towards him, as Franky tried to turn around to save Brook. Sanji and Zoro were just about to reach Chopper when an underwater current swept him further away from the rest of the crew. Chopper, running out of air, then blacked out.





Chopper began to slowly open his eyes, and tried to figure out his surroundings. He noticed, he was no longer in the ocean, but what appeared to be inside of some sort of house. Surrounding him, were small furry animals. From bunnies, to birds, to squirrels. He slowly gets up, as his head was spinning. He had no idea how he got here, or even remembered anything that happened. The last thing in his memory was Zoro and Sanji about to rescue him, when a current pulled him away. 

Chopper, then hears what appears to be singing from another room. He then sees the door open, and what he laid eyes on next, completely took his breath away. It was a pony, a yellow pony, with a pink mane, and wings. She was singing a sweet tune as she carried a tray with a bowl of soup towards him.

"Oh, I see you're awake. I was so worried you were too injured to wake up." The winged pony said to him.

"HUH?! You're a talking pony with wings?" Chopper asked her while dumbfounded.

"Why yes of course, I'm a pegasus pony, and all ponies can talk of course." The pony replied. "But I've never seen a creature like you before. You're just so adorable."

"A...A-adorable?" Chopper blushed as he asked..... "Uh, giving me a compliment and saying I'm cute won't make me happy, you jerk." He said while blushing, smiling, and waving his body around in a cheerful manner.

"Oh you're one of those who can't hide their feelings when given a compliment. That makes you even cuter." The pony responded. "So what are you?"

Chopper finally got back to his senses,

"I'm a reindeer." He answered.

"I've never seen a reindeer like you before. You walk on two legs, and your body shape and size are nothing like I've ever seen on any reindeer before. And I though all of your kind would live further up north where the climate is colder." She explained to Chopper.

"Well, I'm not a normal reindeer. You see, I ate a devil fruit. It allows me to shapeshift my body into different forms, and it gave me the intelligence of a human." Chopper replied. "The Human Human Fruit, zoan type."

"Humans?" The pony asked, "Oh that's just an old mare's tale. Everypony knows that humans are made up for fairy tales."

"No, that's not true. You never seen a human before? Are you a devil fruit user too? Is that why you can talk and have wings? And what's your name? I'm Tony Tony Chopper by the way. But you can just call me Chopper."

"Well, nice to meet you Chopper, I'm Fluttershy." She responded. "And no, I don't know what these devil fruits are, though they sound kind of scary. I'm a pegasus pony, and born with these wings. And like I said before, all ponies can talk."

Chopper was slightly taken aback, maybe he hit his head a little too hard, or maybe he's in a land where no human has ever set foot on, maybe not even the former Pirate King, Gol D. Roger came to before.

"Now, you should eat up, and drink the soup I made for you." Fluttershy said, as she placed the tray in front of Chopper. "You need to recover."

"I know, and thank you. I've been in situations like these almost all the time." He replied as he begins to drink the soup Fluttershy prepared for him.

He then notices a grey rabbit with a limp. Chopper sees his backpack next to the bed. He reaches for it, and pulls out some bandages, while Fluttershy looks at him intently. Chopper then picks up the little rabbit, and begins to wrap the bandages on the hurt leg, and then pulls out a small cast, and puts it on the leg.

"You seem to know what you're doing." Fluttershy said to the little reindeer.

"Of course, I'm a doctor." He replied to the pony.

"Really? Oh that's wonderful. I've never met a reindeer doctor before." She said back to him.

"Say, how did I get here anyway?" Chopper asked.

"Oh, I found you lying on the beach when I was taking a morning stroll with my bunny Angel. You looked like you were half drowned. I had to do something to save you. I couldn't just leave you out there." She said as she flies up to him and gently pets his head.

"You saved my life, thank you. What about the rest of my friends?" he asked.

"Oh, you were the only one I found." Fluttershy said.

"Oh, I see. I hope they're ok. They must be worried about me." Chopper said as tears begin to flow from his eyes. 
The thought of his crew brought him a feeling of loneliness without them. They had taken him in when the rest of the world shunned him. They were the only family he had.

"I know you must feel lonely with out your friends being here, but don't cry, I'll also be your friend. And I'll help you find your other friends too." She said as she give him a hug. Chopper began to blush.

He then looks out the window, and realises it was night.

"Why don't we get some sleep. Tomorrow morning, I'll take you to Ponyville to meet the rest of my friends. Twilight Sparkle, one of my best friends, who's the town librarian should be able to help you. We'll get you back home. I promise." She said smiling, giving Chopper a feeling of ease.

"You're right. Thank you for everything and for saving my life Fluttershy. I'll talk to you tomorrow morning." 

With that Fluttershy turns off the lights, and closes the door. Chopper, looked out the window, and started thinking about Luffy and the others, wondering if they're ok, and hoping that he can see them again soon so they won't have to worry about him. He wanted to have some way, of delivering a message to them, to let them know, he was safe.
> Welcome to Ponyville; The reindeer doctor's journey begins!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Tony Tony Chopper finds himself in the land of Equestria; where it is populated not by humans, but talking ponies. Chopper is rescued by the pegasus pony, Fluttershy, and she has agreed to help him in any way possible.


"Good morning Dr. Chopper." Fluttershy said as she pulls the curtains apart to let in the sunshine of the morning day through the window. "I hope you rested well. You seemed to have fully recovered from your injuries."

"Hi Fluttershy. Thanks for agreeing to help me. I hope I can get back to the rest of my friends. I'm ready to go to the town." Chopper said as he stretches.

The pair then begin to head out of Fluttershy's cottage, as Angel bunny glares at Chopper.

"I don't think your little friend likes me very much." Chopper said as Angel gives him a dirty look.

"Oh don't worry about him. He's just protective over me." Fluttershy responded to the reindeer. "Ponyville is a bit of a walk from here. Normally I would fly, but I can't just leave you here by yourself, especially since you're walking on two legs."

"Oh don't worry about that,  WALK POINT!" Chopper yells out as his body transforms into his full reindeer form.

Fluttershy let out a surprised yelp, as she sees him suddenly grow in size, and on all fours, with large antlers, yet still his clothes seem to stretch with his body.

"Wha? What happened?" Flutershy asked in astonishment.

"Like I said, I'm not a normal reindeer. I can shape shift my body into different forms. What you saw earlier was my Brain Point. It's my human-reindeer hybrid form. This is my Walk Point, my true reindeer form. I also have a Heavy Point, a full human form."

Fluttershy listens in awe, and at the same time, can't help but somewhat oogle at his reindeer body. He was slightly larger than her, yet he also seemed very masculine, strong, and somewhat attractive. Even though he was a reindeer and not a pony.

She shook her head to get those distracting thoughts out of her head. They needed to go to Ponyville, and thus began their walk.

On the way, they conversed about the wildlife and animals that Fluttershy would take care of, and Chopper gave her some medical advice on how to treat each illness and wound as they would come along. After about half an hour, they finally reach the town.

"Here we are Chopper. Welcome to Ponyville." Fluttershy said as they both walk into the town market place.

"Whoa." Chopper said with astonishment.

Chopper had never seen a town devoid of humans. Not a single one was in sight. Instead he sees, ponies everywhere. They were going about their business, as if they were people. Some looked like regular horses, yet very colorful, he saw others like Fluttershy, who had wings, and a third type, with a single horn on their heads.

"I haven't seen so many colorful ponies in my life. What is this place, and where are all the humans?" Chopper asked.

"There are no humans here. Humans don't exist. You're such a funny reindeer." Fluttershy said with a light chuckle.

"Hmm, I think I better stay in my reindeer form." Chopper said to himself. He didn't want to spook any of the locals if there weren't any other humanoid creatures around.

They begin to walk around the town square when Chopper's stomach began to rumble.

"Umm, can we stop somewhere to pick up a snack or something?" He asked Fluttershy.

"Why of course. I can't believe we skipped breakfast in our haste today. It's the most important meal." She responded. "Let's go to Pinkie's over at Sugarcube Corner. She always has wonderful snacks and treats."

About another two minute walk, they reach the bakery of Sugarcube Corner, and enter it.

"HIYA Fluttershy!" A pink pony said as she bounces up to the two.

"And who's this? I've never seen you before. You must be new to Ponyville because I know everypony who lives here. I'm Pinkie Pie, and what's your name?"

"I'm Chopper, and I'm looking for a way to reach the rest of my friends." He said to the pink pony.

"OOOH, I'm always excited to meet someone new. Let me be your friend too!" Pinkie began to bounce around Chopper excitedly.

"So, you want some cake? I'll bake you a special Welcome to Ponyville Friendship Cake! Doesn't that sound yummy?" Pinkie Pie said as she then suddenly pulls out a wagon out of nowhere.

"Huh? Where'd that come from?" Chopper said dumbfounded.

Pinkie then suddenly broke into song as the wagon began playing music.

"Welcome welcome welcome 
A fine welcome to you 
Welcome welcome welcome I say how do you do? 
Welcome welcome welcome 
I say hip hip hurray 
Welcome welcome welcome to Ponyville today!"

A microwave from the wagon opens, as confetti burst out, and cake batter shoots out of the musical horns, splattering all three of them.

"Oops, I must have put the confetti in the cake oven, and the cake batter in the confetti cannon.... AGAIN!" Pinkie says as she licks up the cake batter covering her.

She then runs off behind the counter and pulls out a large cake that says Welcome to Ponyville on it.

"Pinkie, how did you? Where did you?" Fluttershy began to ask.

"Oh, I have a welcome cake ready at all times, in case of welcome emergencies." She replied as Chopper simply laughed.

"Aww, I'm glad I made you smile!" She said happily.

"You're funny, and thanks for the cake." Chopper said cheerfully to Pinkie.

The three began cutting into the cake and started eating. Chopper had always liked sweets, and Sanji had always made some of the best treats for him. This almost rivaled it. Of course he had a hard time trying to pick up the cake with his hooves in his reindeer form. Seeing that nobody else was around he looked over to Pinkie.

"Hey Pinkie, I don't want to startle or scare you, but can you keep this between us?" Chopper said to the pink pony.

"Sure I'm good at keeping secrets and not breaking promises, and I LOVE surprises." She replied.

"Promise me you won't reveal this to anyone else, I don't want to start a panic if I don't have to...."

"CROSS MY HEART AND HOPE DO FLY, STICK A CUPCAKE IN MY EYE!" She responded.

"Ok, here goes...." Chopper said as he sighed. "Brain Point!"

Chopper's body morphs back into his human/reindeer hybrid form. He's now the tiny bipedal creature that Fluttershy originally found.

Pinkie lets out a gasp, then her eyes begin to shine with excitement.

"Oh, that was soo cool! I've never seen anypony pull a trick like that. Do it again!" She said with glee.

Chopper began to laugh, relieved that she wasn't scared of him.

"Hey Fluttershy," Pinkie said to the pegasus, "How come you weren't scared?" 

"Oh, he already told me about how he's not a normal reindeer. He said something about eating a devil fruit that gives him special abilites. He can even turn into a human, though I haven't seen him do it yet."

"That's so exciting! How do devil fruits taste? Are they yummy? What kind of powers do they give you?"

"They taste terrible." Chopper explained, as he begins to use his new form to dig into his cake. It was much easier now since his hooves were now like fingers. He didn't want to turn fully human, because he was unsure how the ponies would react. And he knew the others would find this current form to be cute.

"They do? Well, that's dissapointing." Pinkie responded.

After they were done, Chopper transforms back into his Walk Point. Pinkie decided to join him and Fluttershy as they continue their trek through Ponyville.

"Since you're my new friend, Let's give you a tour of our town!" Pinkie said in her hyper tone.

"Well, what we're really trying to do, is meet up with Twilight at the library." Fluttershy responded.

"Okie Dokie Lokie." Pinkie answered.

Chopper couldn't help but laugh with Pinkie.

As they walk through the town, Chopper couldn't help but see several things he found interesting. Such as pegasi pushing clouds around, unicorns using some sort of levitation to move objects, and how everything looked like a human society, yet it was run by ponies. Chopper was fascinated by his surroundings.

Finally, they reach the library, which was literally a treehouse.

Fluttershy knocks on the door, and a small bipedal reptile answers.

"Hey Fluttershy, Hi Pinkie Pie, looks like everypony showed up. Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash are here too." The little reptile said to the ponies.

"Oh really Spike?" Pinkie asked with excitement "Is it some kind of party?"

"No not really," Spike answered. "They're just here because Twilight needed some helping hooves to reorganize her books this time around. The others kinda owed her a favor anyway."

He then looks at Chopper.

"Who's the new guy?" Spike asked.

"Oh, this is Dr. Tony Tony Chopper, a visitor to Ponyville. He's lost, and I was hoping Twilight could help him get back home to his friends." Fluttershy answered.

"Well, don't just stand there, come on inside." Spike said as the three enter the library.

Inside, the other ponies were shelving books, and sorting some in order.

"This....is......BORING!" a rainbow maned blue winged pony shouted out.

"Well, ya did make a darn tootin' mess when you crashed into the library this mornin' Rainbow Dash!" An orange pony wearing a cowboy hat said while piling some books together.

"It wasn't my fault Applejack! Derpy got in my way when I was trying to attempt another Sonic Rainboom. I had to veer out or else I would have slammed right into her." Rainbow Dash complained.

"Now now girls..." A white unicorn with a purple mane said, "Let's just calm down, we promised we'd help Twilight this week with her reshelving. She modeled for my dresses, and helped Applejack with her harvest. We owe it to her as her friends."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever Rarity." Rainbow replied.

"Hey girls, we have a guest. One Dr. Tony Tony Chopper, a reindeer visitor." Spike said as the rest of the ponies greet them.

"Where's Twilight?" Spike asked.

"She's in the basement getting some cleaning tools." Rarity said as she also greets Chopper.

"Why hello there! I've never seen a reindeer with such studly good looks. Though those clothes you're wearing, such a disaster to fashion!" Rarity said. "I am Rarity by the way. Dr. Chopper is it?"

"Umm, yes, and what's wrong with my clothes? I like them." Chopper responded.

"Howdy Partner, I'm Applejack!" The orange cowmare greeted the reindeer.

"And I'm the one and only Rainbow Dash!" The blue pegasus said.

"Um, hello. Tony Tony Chopper's the name." Chopper greeted the rest.

Then out from the basement, a purple unicorn comes from the door, with several cleaning tools levitating around her.
She then sees the reindeer, sets the tools down, and walks up to him.

"Hi Twilight" Fluttershy said to her. "This is a visitor to Ponyville. His name is Dr. Tony Tony Chopper. He's a reindeer doctor not from our lands. He's lost and I was wondering, if, um, you know, could help him out, I mean, if it's ok with you...."

"Oh, well, hello sir, I'm Twilight Sparkle, I'm the librarian here, as well as the prized student of Princess Celestia, our ruler." Twilight said to Chopper.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Chopper, a doctor of the Straw Hat crew aboard our ship." He replied to her.

"Ship?" Twilight asked, "Are you a sailor or something?"

"I'm a pirate." Chopper said without thinking, then he realized he may have just said too much.

"A PIRATE??!!" All six ponies and dragon replied.

"You're pullin' our leg right?" Rainbow Dash said with a laugh. "That's a good one. Everypony knows there aren't any more pirates these days."

"Well, that's not entirely true..." Chopper said. "And I'm not exactly a normal reindeer. I'd might as well be honest with you all, since I need your help. I'm the doctor of the Straw Hat Pirates, led by a man named Monkey D. Luffy, a human. But you all seem to think humans don't exist. Then again, I'm pretty sure none of you have been outside of your land before I take it?"

"Well, not really." Applejack replied. "We've always stayed here in Equestria all of our lives. Never really had any reason to head out I reckon."

"Well, let me tell you about myself and the world I come from, maybe it will shed some more light, and give you more information to help me." Chopper said.

"And what did you mean by, you're not a normal reindeer?" Twilight asked.

"Well, let me show you." He said. "I ate a devil fruit called the Human Human Fruit. Zoan type. It gave me my human level intelligence, and allows my body to shape shift into different forms."

He then morphs into his brain point. All the ponies, and Spike gasp and take a step back.

"Wha? WHAT ARE YOU?!" Rarity shrieked.

"Don't be afraid." Fluttershy reassured the others. "It may look surprising, but he's actually very nice. I like him a lot."

"Well, for Fluttershy, normally somepony like her to be timid towards everything to take a liking to you, I guess you're cool in my book." Rainbow said as she walks up to Chopper.

"Yeah, he's fun to be around." Pinkie added. "Didn't you say you can turn into a human too?"

"Well, yeah, but, I don't know if you're ready for that part." He said with a nervious look.

"Well, he is rather adorable with his current look. I take it back, those clothes in your current shape look absolutely darling on you, especially that blue and pink cap you're wearing." Rarity said as she looks at him.

"A.....Adorable? Your words won't bring me any happiness, you stupid head." Chopper says as he begins to blush, smile, and wave his body back in forth.

"Well, isn't that just darling! He's the shy type, just like you Fluttershy." Rarity said while giggling.

"He shrunk down to the same size as me." Spike said to Twilight.

Twilight could only look at Chopper with a huge grin on her face. He's a doctor, he's from another land, he can shapeshift, and he apparently lives with humans. The knowledge she could gain from him was overwhelming to the unicorn.

"Spike, get me a scroll, some ink and a quill." She said as Spike runs off to retrieve the objects she asked for. "Now have a seat, and tell me everything you know." She said while her grin grows even larger.

"That mouth of yers' is enough to make Pinkie jealous." Applejack said as she looked at Twilight.


And thus, Chopper began to tell his tale of his life.
From his beginnings on Drum Island, how his family shunned him for his blue nose, how he was later more shunned after eating the Human Human Fruit. How the main human civilization rejected him because they feared him. He told them about a man named Dr. Hiluluk, who took him in, and taught him everything he knew about medicine. How he treated Chopper like his own son. Until his untimely death at the hands of Warpol, the then corrupt ruler of Drum Island. How Dr. Kureha, one of Dr. Hiluluk's associates, promised to take him in, and taught him everything there was to know about being a doctor. 
And then, about Luffy, and the crew, about how they were pirates, yet they don't pillage and loot, they journey only to have fun, and to follow their dreams. The adventures they had of how Luffy freed Drum Island from Warpol, their trip to the desert kingdom of Alabasta, and how they saved the country from destruction. The trip to Skypiea, an island in the sky made of clouds, how they had to rescue their dear friend Nico Robin from Enies Lobby, declaring war against the entire world to do so for the sake of a friend. About their adventure on Thriller Bark, fighting zombies, and monsters. And their separation for two years, and hard training to help Luffy overcome his grief over the loss of his brother, and the reunion after their intense training. And also about their underwater adventure in Fishman Island.

Most importantly, He told them about the comradeship, and strong bond each of his crew members had with each other. How they would put each other in harm's way to save each other. Even if it meant giving up their one true dream. The devotion the Straw Hats had for each other, was a true bond of friendship that nothing will ever break. He also told them about his dream, to be the world's greatest doctor, and cure any illness that existed. His promise to Dr. Hiluluk.


Once his story was done, the ponies, and Spike, had tears in their eyes, moved by his tragic history, and his devotion to his crew.

"That was an amazing story!" Twilight said, as she wipes some tears from her eyes. "To think there's a whole other world out there."

"These humans sound like they're a bunch of jerks." Rainbow Dash added.

"Well, they can't be all bad if Chopper's crew took him in an' accepted him for who he is." Applejack replied to the pegasus.

"I like this Luffy guy!" Pinkie chimed in. "He sounds like a lot of fun!"

"Oh you poor dear!" Rarity said, "To think you suffered so much. But I'm glad you have such caring friends."

"Oh Chopper," Fluttershy said with tears in her eyes, "We'll help you get back to your family. Anyone who loves you that much, are your family." She said as she hugs him. Fluttershy couldn't help but feel some kind of connection to Chopper. He's a doctor, a caretaker, much like her, he didn't have any friends when he was young, just like her, but he was very kind, and had such kindness that rivals her own. The more she got to know him, the more she began to admire him.

"So Twilight, What can you do for him?" Spike asked.

"Well, I'll need to so some research. If I can't find anything here, I'll try the Canterlot Libraries. Maybe the princess can help as well." She replied to him.

"I also wish to learn more about the humans and the world outside Equestria."

"One more thing..." Pinkie said to the reindeer. "Show us your human form. I WANNA SEE!"

"You sure that's a good idea?" Chopper asked, "It's kinda scary looking."

"It's ok, we know you're super nice!" Pinkie replied.

"Alright, here goes....... HEAVY POINT!"

Chopper then morphs into a giant bipedal hulking humanoid.

All of the ponies take a step back in fright as they look at Chopper's towering monsterous form.

"See? I knew I'd scare all of you." He said sadly. "If you're afraid of me now, then.... I'll just leave. I won't bother you anymore."

"Oh no wait, please come back." Fluttershy said as she flies up to his head level. "You may look scary right now, but we know you're not a big meanie. I can still see it in your eyes. You're still the nice doctor I rescued yesterday. You're still our friend."

The other ponies were amazed at how Fluttershy fearlessly flew up to him, and spoke to him. Her usual timid personality wasn't present. This also gave them to courage to interact with Chopper in his current form.

"Yeah, I think you look kinda cool!" Rainbow added.

"And I think this is fascinating!" Twilight responded.

"Ah bet you can give Big Macintosh a run for his bits!" Applejack chuckled.

"You may look like a brute, but you're a brute with a heart." Rarity said.

"You're like the coolest reindeer monster I've ever met. Well, then again, you're the only reindeer I ever met!" Pinkie hyperly said as she bounced around him in circles.

Chopper then transforms back to his brain point.

"I, I'm glad you're not running me out of town just because I'm different, or because I'm a Pirate." He said with tears in his eyes.

"Of course not! It wouldn't be neighborly of us!" Applejack replied.

"Don't worry Chopper, We'll help you however we can." Twilight said, "Right girls?"

"RIGHT!" The others replied.

"Those are some awesome tricks man." Spike said as he pats Chopper on the back. "Think you can teach me?"

"Sorry Spike, but that's the devil fruit ability. You didn't eat one." Chopper answered.

Spike, slightly disappointed, just simply smiled at his new friend, as he walks back next to Twilight.

"Devil Fruit powers. I wish to learn more about those too." Twilight said to the reindeer. "Do you have a place to stay while you're here?"

"Oh, he can stay at my cottage." Fluttershy said.

"Alright then, sounds like we have some work to do. We'll get you back to your friends, I promise." Twilight said, as she then hears a knocking at the door.

She goes to answer it, and at the door stands a unicorn stallion, in guard armor.

"Bro?" Twilight said to the unicorn.

"Hi Twilie." The stallion replied. "I heard you have a guest in the library, The princess wants all of you and the outsider from Equestria to come with us to Canterlot."

"Shining Armor's here?" Spike said with slight confusion.

"Who's he?" Chopper asked.

"That's Twilight's older brother, Shining Armor, Captain of the Royal Guards in Canterlot, the capital city of Equestria." Fluttershy answered.

Shining Armor then walks up to Chopper.

"Sir I need you to come with me. I don't mean to sound demanding or rude, but Princess Celestia has ordered your presence at the castle. All of you are to come as well."

"What's this about?" Twilight asked.

"Him" Shining Armor replied pointing at Chopper. "I'm sorry to do this, as I know you made friends with him, but he's under arrest." Shining Armor said as he pulls out a parchment, and unrolls it. All the ponies and Spike gasp at what is on the paper. It's a wanted poster of Chopper.


> To Canterlot; Princess Celestia, ruler of the Ponies!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Tony Tony Chopper finds himself in the land of Equestria; where it is populated not by humans, but talking ponies. Chopper has befriended a number of ponies, but has been arrested and taken to the main capital city called Canterlot due to his status of being a Pirate. He is to meet with the ruler, Princess Celestia.


The train ride from Ponyville to Canterlot, suffice to say, was a long, and rather awkward. No pony was allowed to talk to Chopper, due to the fact that he is a prisoner. Shining Armor was ordered to put him in chains, and to keep him away from all the civilian ponies in the other cars. Chopper could easily break the chains by simply transforming into his Heavy Point, but chose not to, as he didn't want to cause a scene, or set a bad example to his new friends.

The train had finally reached Canterlot, and all of the occupants exit. Fluttershy, and the rest of the Mane 6, as well as Spike, see Shining Armor, and a number of unicorn guards escort Chopper, still in his reindeer/human hybrid Brain Point to the main hall of the castle. It deeply troubled the ponies, especially Fluttershy, to see someone being carted away by the guards, when he had done nothing wrong. It broke her heart to see how helpless he was.

"Please follow us ladies." A unicorn guard said, as the Mane 6 and Spike follow the guard into the castle, as they head into the main throne room.

Moments later, they all greet Princess Celestia, and Shining Armor on her right, watching Chopper carefully as he is brought in front of the princess. Fluttershy began to have knots in her stomach. She couldn't help but feel nervous, awkward, and fearful for her new friend. The rest of the ponies, and Spike, were more confused than anything else.

"Greetings my little ponies." Celestia said, "I wish I didn't have to meet you all under current circumstances, but I have called you all here of a matter of great importance regarding our visitor."

Twilight nervously gulped as she listens to the princess address her and her friends. Shining Armor could only give a look of concern.

"This reindeer, Tony Tony Chopper, is a wanted criminal. I fear that his presence here, may put all of Equestria in great peril." The princess said to the ponies, and Spike, while Chopper could only stand and listen.

"He is a part of a pirate crew wanted for various crimes against the so called World Government outside of our own lands."

"But Princess Celestia," Fluttershy suddenly, and strangely out of character, bravely called out. "He hasn't done anything wrong here. I mean, at least he's been very friendly to us."

"Dear Fluttershy, I know he's someone important to you, and I know he has a good heart, but I fear he cannot stay here because he might bring THEM here."

"Who's THEM?" Twilight Sparkle asked.

"Humans, the outside world. I take it Chopper has already explained where he came from correct?" The princess asked her prized student.

"Well, Yes Princess." Twilight answered.

"You see, everything he told you, is true. Humans do exist outside of Equestria. No human has set foot in our land in over 800 years. Not since a great war that broke out world wide."

The ponies, Spike, and Chopper listen intently.

"You see, centuries ago, when I was still young, a faction called the Ancient Alliance formed by the kings of Twenty human kingdoms, waged a great war, that overthrew the old Ancient Kingdom that ruled over the world. It was a bloody and long war. Many lives where lost, but eventually, the Alliance won, and the old kingdom was decimated. Thus, the World Government was formed. During the war, some of the World Government officials, and soldiers discovered our land of Equestria. Seeing that we were all ponies, they attempted to conquer us.
The humans had spread the war to our kind. For decades, Ponies and humans fought each other over the land and our resources. It wasn't until the great Star Swirl the Bearded cast what was called a Mega Spell, that rendered the human weapons inopprotive. 
Eventually, thanks to Star Swirl, the humans were finally driven away. But not before many lives were lost, on both sides. The former ruler of Equestria, Luna's, and my Father, the old king, was amongst the fallen.
It was a great price for victory. Eventually, Star Swirl cast another Mega Spell, that would render all human technology, or their log poses from ever finding Equestria again. From time to time, Luna and I will have to refresh the spell due to it weakening over time. We had several close calls in the past decades with human Pirates nearly finding and setting foot on our lands."

The Mane 6, Spike, and Chopper, all look at Princess Celestia, jaws agape. They were unable to fully believe what they just heard. There was indeed an outside world, and it didn't sound too friendly. Chopper already knew some of the history of the world, but he had no idea the ponies suffered so much in ancient times.

"I, I had no idea, I'm so sorry to hear about your father, Princess Celestia." Twilight said, as tears form in her eyes.

Celestia continues to speak.

"Dr. Chopper, your presence here jeopardizes our peaceful land. We had not had any wars for nearly three centuries now. I fear that if the World Government hears about your being here, they will come and invade. I cannot allow that." Celestia said in a stern tone.

Chopper was at a loss of words. Fluttershy was in tears. It wasn't fair, Chopper had done nothing wrong, and he's to be arrested.

Celestia then gives Chopper a more friendly gaze with her eyes, and begins to speak in a more sympathetic tone.

"I know you're not a bad reindeer. You have a heart of gold, and so do your crew mates. Yes, I have been watching the events of the outside world. Your crew are perhaps some of the most trustworthy, and noble humans I have ever seen. They know the true meaning of friendship, and family. 
It pains me greatly to do this to you, someone who is branded a criminal all because of who he's friends with. I saw the events of Portgas D. Ace's execution two years ago, all because he's the son of the former Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, he was branded a criminal. I know it isn't fair at all. 
The same goes for your Captain, Monkey D. Luffy. Just because he's the son of the revolutionary, Monkey D. Dragon. To tell you the truth, I actually hope Dragon wins the war against the corrupted government. He's one of the few humans I truly Respect."

"Princess, what are we to do with Chopper then?" Shining Armor asked.

"Release his bonds Shining Armor, he has committed no crime against us." She replied.

Shining Armor then uses his horn, to release Chopper from his chains. He is now free.

"Thank you for releasing me Princess Celestia." Chopper responded.

"Of course Doctor." The princess replied.

"So, what's gonna happen to him?" Fluttershy asked.

Celestia then approches Chopper, and gently puts a hoof on his shoulder.

"I will provide you with the means to reunite you with the rest of your crew. I will give you a ship, small enough for you to operate on your own, but strong enough to survive the currents. I will also provide you with all the supplies you need. Also, since you've made friends with my pupil and her closest friends, I will allow you to stay for two more days. Please enjoy yourself, and make these last few precious moments with them count." 

"Thank you for your generosity Princess." Chopper said, while slightly uplifted, but not completely.

"S'not Fair, he ain't done nothin' wrong. Ah can't believe he's bein' banished." Applejack said, as Rarity looked at Chopper with sympathetic eyes.

Fluttershy, although relieved Chopper won't be locked away, was still saddened that her new friend had to leave so soon. Granted she promised she'd help him find his crew and she knew he would eventually leave. But she wanted to spend more time with him. At least she'll have two more days.

"I know it isn't fair Applejack." Celestia addressed the cowmare, "but I must hold the safety of Equestria above all personal feelings. I can't risk the corrupted government sending their troops here, nor can I risk having villainous pirates such as Blackbeard, or Eustass Kidd finding our lands. They are notorious killers."

"I understand Princess," Chopper replied. "I will respect your wishes."

"I thank you Chopper. And I also ask that you forgive me, I hope that I can be considered your friend as well."

"Sure you are, any other ruler would have thrown me into a prison. You've been more than nice to me." Chopper said to the princess, as she smiled at him, and a feeling of guilt panged in her heart.

"You may all return to your homes now. Please enjoy your time here Dr. No matter how brief it may be. May you have pleasant memories of our friendship." Celestia said.

Shining Armor then approches Chopper.

"Hey, I hope there aren't any hard feelings. I had to follow my orders and do my job." He said.

Chopper simply smiled, and shook hooves with him.

"Don't worry about it." Chopper replied.

"Well Spike, that was quite the doozy." Twilight said to her dragon assistant. "I never knew about such a vast world existed outside of Equestria."

Pinkie Pie then hopped in front of all the others.

"Hey, don't be sad everypony, when we get back to Ponyville, I'm gonna host a Welcome to Ponyville party for Chopper, then when he's ready to go, I'm gonna throw another Goodbye Party for him too. Doesn't that sound fun?" Pinkie said as she continues to bounce around the room.

"Sounds lovely Pinkie." Rarity said nodding.


With all that was said and done, they board the train back to Ponyville. This time, Chopper was allowed to ride in the cars with the rest of the ponies. He decided for the duration of the ride, to stay in his Walk Point full reindeer form, as there were other ponies sharing the car, and he didn't want to startle them with his other forms.

"Umm, Chopper?" Fluttershy said as she sat next to him, "I umm, I hope.... I mean, I want to let you know..... You'll always be somepony special to me, even though, you're not a pony. You'll always be here in our hearts, even if you're a world away. So please don't forget about me..... I mean, if that's ok with you."

"Of course I'll never forget you Fluttershy." He responded. "I never forget all the friends I made on my long journey to be the best doctor in the world. And let's not be sad right now. We're gonna go back to your town, and have the most fun ever."

Fluttershy gave a large smile, and suddenly, kissed him on the cheek, surprising Chopper, and the rest of the Mane 6 and Spike. Fluttershy herself was also surprised by her own actions, and began to blush nervously, realizing what she had just done.

"Whoa Flutters!" Rainbow Dash said, "I never knew you had THAT in you!"

"Oh, how quaint!" Rarity said with her eyes fluttering.

Chopper blushed, then passed out.

"Oh no! Is he alright?" Fluttershy asked in panic. "I didn't mean to hurt him."

"He'll be fine. He just fainted." Twilight answered the pegasus.

Fluttershy gave a sigh of relief.

Applejack, Spike, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie simply laughed at Chopper's expression as he laid on the floor. He was blushing, with a huge grin on his face.


Eventually, he woke up, just in time for the train to reach Ponyville. They all exit the train and start trotting back to the main part of the town.

"Well, let's get the party preparations started!" Pinkie Pie yelled as they walk towards Sugarcube corner.

Suddenly, Pinkie's knee begins to have a pinchie feeling.

"KNEE PINCH! KNEE PINCH!" She yelled. "Something scary is about to happen!"

As if on cue, a dark mass of clouds appear overhead. From the clouds a number of small looking winged dragon like creatures began emerging from it. Beneath, a large squad of bipedal lizard like creatures wearing armor, and wielding spears also charged forward into Ponyville. Then another winged dragon like creature, this time, with a gargoyle like creature riding it's back emerged from the cloud.



"Begin the raid! Lord Tirek has commanded that we capture as many ponies as we can!"

The invading force swoop in by air, and march in by ground, and began their assault into the town.
> Ponyville under siege; Tirek the dark conquerer appears!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Tony Tony Chopper finds himself in the land of Equestria; where it is populated not by humans, but talking ponies. After meeting with Princess Celestia, Equestria's ruler, Chopper is to leave the kingdom in two days. However, a dark invading force has attacked the home of his new friends.



It was chaos everywhere, creatures never seen before were raiding Ponyville. Dragon like monsters were diving down and snatching ponies as they ran for dear life. Lizard soldiers with spears threw nets at other ponies trying to flee the scene. Some tried to fight back, but were no match for the physical strength of the invaders. The Mane 6, Spike, and Chopper were unable to believe what they were witnessing.

"Girls!" Twilight called to the others, "We have to protect the town from, whatever those are!"

All of them nod in agreement, though, Fluttershy was more terrified than anything else.

"We must capture at least seven physically strong ponies for our lord. He has something special planned for them." The gargoyle riding a winged beast yelled to the rest of the creatures.

"Commander Scorpan!" One of the lizard troops addressed him, "I believe I have three in possession as of now."

He pulls a net containing Vinyl Scratch, Derpy Hooves, and Carrot Top. Scorpan observes the ponies.

"Excellent, these three will do." He addressed the soldier. "Continue the assault until we have at least seven."

Twilight and the others began to charge towards the invaders. Twilight uses her horn to blast several bolts at a number of lizardmen, while Rainbow Dash, using her super speed, plows through another group of flying dragons, knocking them  out of the air, and smashing them to the ground. 

Applejack began to buck at a number of lizardmen, as Rarity assisted her, with a number of quick kicks, and punches.

Spike did whatever he could to protect Fluttershy, as she was still cowering at the sight of the invaders.

"What are these things Spike?" She asked the dragon. "Why are they doing this?"

"I don't know Fluttershy, but I won't let them get you." He answered.

"Nor will I" Chopper said, as he charges towards a number of lizardmen closing in on Fluttershy and Spike.

"KUNG FU POINT!"

Chopper suddenly increased in size. He looked like his Brain Point form, except he was larger, bulkier, and seemed more aggressive.

He began do flips in the air, while letting out a flurry of punches and kicks, easily knocking away the attackers. He then spins at a high speed with this limbs flying in every direction, knocking out more invaders.

Fluttershy and Spike were greatly surprised that Chopper had another form, but were none the less grateful.

"YEAH! That was awesome Chopper! Go get'em!" Spike cheered him on. Fluttershy looked at him in awe. She was now even more grateful to him.

Chopper lets out another full fury of martial arts moves as he pounds a number of opponents to the ground. He then leaps in the air, and kicks a number of flying enemies away, lands, and lets out another flurry of punches and kicks at a group of lizardmen who were advancing on Fluttershy and Spike.

"Come on! Let's get out of the open!" Chopper said, as he transforms back into his full reindeer form. Spike hops on Chopper's back, as Fluttershy flies up next to him. The three then began running to the others who where are still in battle.

Pinkie Pie pulls a cannon seemingly out of nowhere, as two lizardmen try to net her, but are hit by a blast of confetti that shot out. They were tied up, and immobilized. 

"Take THAT you big meanies!" She taunted.

"You ruffians had enough?" Rarity said, while in some martial arts stance, and panting.

"Foolish, pony" A dragon said. "You now belong to us!"

"Ah don't think so ya varmant!" As he is bucked straight into the air by Applejack.

Scorpan sees this, and dismounts the dragon. He then flies up to Twilight, who was still blasting his men with her magic.

"Surrender pony." He said calmly to her. "I don't wish to harm you, so just come quietly."

"Yeah, right, Like I'm going to believe you!" She said as she unleashes another magical blast at Scorpan, as he flies up to dodge, which barely missed him.

"Please, for your own good, just stop fighting." Scorpan said again. 

"Twilight, give him a taste of your talent in magic!" Rainbow Dash yelled as three dragons were closing in on her. 

She zips around several buildings, as the dragons crash into them.

Scorpan then approches Twilight with a net. 

"I'm sorry..." He mutters as he tries to throw it over her.

Twilight then teleports out of the way, and ends up behind him. She fires a bolt that knocks Scorpan down.

"YOU should surrender!" She yelled to the gargoyle. "My magic is the strongest in Ponyville."

"Is that so?" A dark sounding, deep voice boomed from the distance.

Twilight looked up, to see, up on a hill, a dark figure was standing. 



The bottom half had four legs, like that of a pony, but the top half, was humanoid. It had two arms, with hands. It's head was like that of a minotaur, horned. It had grey fur all over it's chest, and bottom half of the body, with a red face and arms. It had an armor on it's chest, and wore what appeared to be a satchel with a rope tied around it's neck. It was a Centaur. Twilight had thought that centaurs were only a myth. 
Celestia had already told her Humans are real, and Chopper proved it as well. Now centaurs too.

"Do you think you're a match for me?" The centaur taunted her.

"I don't know who you are, but I won't let you hurt my friends, and destroy my home!" Twilight yelled, as she charges up her horn, and unleashes the strongest bolt she could muster.

The Centaur, materializes a scepter, with a purple orb at the end, and deflects her magical bolt like it was nothing.

"No, that's not possible!" Twilight gasped.

By now, the others and Chopper had caught up with her. They too witness her confrontation with the centaur.

"I'll take care of this." Chopper said, "HORN POINT!"

Chopper transforms again, this time, while still on two legs, his antlers however, grow twice as long as his body.
He springs forward to ram the opponent, only to be swatted away by a fist the centaur unleashed.

He is sent flying into a side of a tree.

"CHOPPER!" Fluttershy yells as she flies up next to him.

Chopper groans, as he gets back on his feet, and turns back into his human-reindeer form. He was unable to retain any other forms due to his weakened state.

Scorpan flies up next to the centaur.

"My lord, the attack goes as planned, soon we will have enough ponies to..." 

Before he could finish his line, the centaur strikes Scorpan with his scepter. 

"You let yourself be defeated by these weaklings. Capture some more ponies, and return to Midnight Castle."

"Yes, of course my lord." Scorpan then flies off.

"Now as for the rest of you." He said as he approches the Mane 6. "Prepare for your end."


Suddenly, a bright light began to shine from the sky. And through the clouds, Princess Celestia drops down.

"That is ENOUGH Tirek!" She yells at the centaur. "I will not allow you to harm anymore of my ponies."

"Ah, Celestia. It's been too long. Did you really think you could trap me in Tartarus forever?" Tirek addressed her.

"You mave have escaped, but I will see to it you are beaten again." Celestia said as she took a battle stance.

"Please, had you known, I have been free for the past ten years. I have been plotting and planning this attack for some time. And what better time than in your current weakened state after your defeat at the hooves of the Changeling Queen, Chrysalis was it?"

"How? How did you know about that?" She asked.

"I know many things Celestia. More than you can imagine." Tirek responded, "As I know you are currently no match for me."

He raises his scepter as Celestia, while at the same time, Celestia's horn began to glow. They each fire a beam at their opponent. The beams collide, and go back and forth in a power struggle, until Tirek's beam breaks through, and hits Celestia.

"PRINCESS CELESTIA!" Twilight Sparkle screamed out as she watched in horror. 

All around Ponyville, all the ponies gasp in horror. 

Once the intense light from the beam subsided, Celestia had been turned to stone.

"How fitting. You now share the same fate as my former master, Discord." Tirek said, then gave an evil cackle. 

"Stegadons!" He calls to the winged dragons, "Take my trophy back to the castle."

Two stegadons then carry the petrified Princess towards the horizon.

"NO! Princess!" The Mane 6 cry out in unison.

"I won't let you do this!" Chopper said, as he gets back on his feet. "Heavy Point!"

He transforms into his full human form, and began to charge at the lizardtroops. He punches away a number of them and gives chase, but the stegadons have already flown away too far.

Another voice called out for help. This caught Applejack's attention. As she knew the voice.

She looks up to see another stegadon fly away, with her little sister, Apple Bloom.

"Apple Bloom! No!" Applejack called as she threw a rope towards the flying creature, but it was too high up.

"Applejack! Help Me! HEEEELLLP!" Apple Bloom cried out in vain.

"Give me back mah sister ya lousy freaks!" She angrily called, while crying at the same time.
She was completely helpless to stop her sister from being kidnapped.

"I'm on it AJ!" Rainbow Dash yelled as she gave chase to rescue both the little filly, and the princess. 

But before she could catch up, a bolt of lighting from Tirek's scepter strikes Rainbow, and she falls to the ground.

"DASHIE!" Pinkie called out in horror.

Chopper seeing this, immediately ran up to Rainbow Dash to see if she was ok.

"HAHAHAHAHA!" Tirek bellowed. "And now it ends."

But before he could do anything, another bolt strikes him from behind. It was enough to knock him a few steps forward, but that was all.

He turned around to see a dark blue alicorn, with a number of pegasus and unicorn guards charging towards his own troops. Tirek was about to unleash another blast when he realized his own magic was starting to weaken.

"Blast, I've depleted too much power fighting Celestia, all forces retreat." Tirek ordered, as the stegadons began carrying the lizardmen back into the dark cloud vortex. Two Stegadons carry Tirek himself, while Scorpan flies after them. The hole in the dark cloud closes, and the cloud vanishes. Daylight had re appeared.

"Oh dear sister, why did you have to confront him on your own?" Luna asked sadly. " Why couldn't you have waited for me?"

"Princess Luna!" Twilight called as she ran up to her. "What's going on? Who was that? What happened to Princess Celestia?"

"All will be answered soon Twilight Sparkle." she replied. "For now, we must tend to the wounded."

Chopper had gave Rainbow Dash a thorough check. Her vitals are still in good condition, and she didn't have any broken bones. Other than several burn marks, it looked like she'll be fine. He was relieved.

"Oh Chopper, is she ok?" Fluttershy asked.

"Don't worry, other than a few burns, and bruises, Rainbow's gonna be just fine. I'll give her some painkillers."

"I'm so glad." She responded. "you were so brave back there. You did everything you could to save us. To save me. How can I ever thank you?"

"Brave?" Chopper then transforms into his brain point and began doing his happy dance again. "I don't need your compliments to make me feel good, jerk."

Fluttershy started giggling at his antics, but then they both suddenly went back to serious mode as they see Rainbow get back up.

"That's gonna hurt tomorrow morning." She uttered.

"We're just glad yer A-OK Dash!" Applejack said, "But Apple Bloom, and the Princess, We gots to do something!"

"All in due time fair Applejack." Luna replied.

"Can you explain what's going on?" Twilight asked.

"Of course, I believe since you are the Elements of Harmony, you deserve to know........
You see, nearly five thousand years ago, another evil appeared in Equestria. His name, is Tirek, a demon Centaur from the fourth plane of Tartarus. He came to our world to conquer it. He was once one of Discord's followers, but he grew tired of his master's antics, and broke all ties with the Chaos bringer. After Celestia and I defeated Discord, Tirek began his own brand of terror.
He began to enslave city after city, until we used the Elements of Harmony to banish him back to Tartarus."

"But it looked like he broke back out." Rainbow said to the princess.

"Yes Rainbow Dash, that is correct." Luna replied.

"Now he has returned, and he wishes to continue his conquest of Equestria. We cannot allow that to happen." Luna said to the ponies, as Spike and Chopper listen.

"And you must be Dr. Chopper, charmed, I am Princess Luna. I know my sister had asked you to leave our land, but I have seen you in battle. You have unusual abilites. Perhaps some unknown magic from the outside world?"

"No, just a devil fruit power." Chopper replied.

"No matter." Luna said, "But I ask... No I BEG for your help. Please Dr. Chopper of the Straw Hat Pirates. Please help my ponies recover the Elements of Harmony!"

"Recover the Elements?" Fluttershy asked. "But I thought they're in Canterlot Tower."

"No, not anymore. You see, the Elements mysteriously disappeared shortly before Tirek began his raid on Ponyville. I do not believe this to be a coincidence. I believe it was Tirek, or an accomplice of his, who stole the Elements from Canterlot Tower before he made his move. It was the only thing that could stop him. Celestia tried to stop him on her own. Had she waited for me, we may have perhaps prevailed with our combined power. Why didn't you wait for me sister?"

"So where could they be?" Pinkie asked.

"No doubt in Midnight Castle." Luna replied.

"Midnight Castle?" Rarity asked.

"Yes, it is an old castle in the heart of the Everfree Forest. We ordered no pony to ever venture that far into the forest. The road, though not far, is highly dangerous with many perils. You must journey there to retrieve the Elements, and stop Tirek then and there."

"Princess Luna," Chopper said to her. "I'll help however I can. They're my friends, and I never turn my back on friends in need. I know if Luffy were here, he'd back me up 100%."

With that, Luna gave a smile.

"Thank you good doctor. You have my eternal gratitude and friendship for helping us." She said to him. "I wish you all the best of luck. But be warned. Tirek is very powerful, and I have no doubt he isn't the only escapee from Tartarus. He may have made alliances with other villains who also once plagued Equestria.
My guards and I will stay here and defend Ponyville however we can. We shall be the last line of defense."

"Princess Luna, we won't let you, Celestia, or Equestria down." Twilight Sparkle said in confidence.

"Girls, Spike, Chopper, we have no time to waste. Let's get going."

They all nod in agreement, and began to head towards the Everfree Forest.

Fluttershy was terrified of going into the forest, but this time, she felt different. As she looked at Chopper, she realized he would watch over her, and protect her with his life. She felt safe around him, and the thought of being close to him made her heart flutter, and her head light. Before she could deny it, she realized, she had fallen in love with the reindeer. 

"Oh, I wonder if he feels the same way." She thought to herself, "I mean, what would a strong reindeer like him ever see in a weak, and useless pegasus like me?....... No, I can't think of these things right now, We have a mission. We have to save Princess Celestia, all the kidnapped ponies, and Equestria. Oh, but what can I do really?!"

"Umm, hey Fluttershy, you ok?" Chopper asked her.

She gave a high pitched squeak, and blushed at him.

"Oh, I'm fine, just a little nervous." She replied, though not completely lying.

"Don't worry, I promise I won't let anything hurt you." He said to her, giving her a warm feeling.

The gang finally reach the edge of the Everfree Forest.

"OK, gang, this is it. Spike, I need you to be an extension of my eyes and ears on this. Got it?"

Spike saluted, "Got it Twilight, I won't let you down."

The group of eight, then enter the forest, braving whatever hidden dangers that they may face later.
> Fight in the Everfree Forest; The challenge of Cloud Demon Arabus!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Tony Tony Chopper finds himself in the land of Equestria; where it is populated not by humans, but talking ponies. Equestria is under attack by the dark demon Tirek. Princess Celestia has been defeated, and the Ponies with Chopper, must venture to Midnight Castle to retrieve the stolen Element of Harmony in hopes to beat the dark villain.


"Scorpan! Bring our guests to me." Tirek called to the gargoyle, as he leads four ponies into the throne room of Midnight Castle.

"Guards, chain them." The centaur ordered as Vinyl Scratch, Carrot Top, Derpy Hooves, and Apple Bloom are each placed with a chain around their necks that was attached to the ground.



Tirek eyes each pony, then looks at Apple Bloom.

"Scorpan, you imbecile!" He angrily called, "The yellow one is far too small and weak to pull my Dark Chariot!"

He then eyes the other three ponies, who were all trembling with fear.

"These three however, will do nicely." He said, as he opened the satchel that was around his neck, as it was pulsating like a heartbeat.

A dark mist like energy then shoots out of the satchel, and engulfs Derpy, Vinyl, and Carrot. They each scream out in terror, then in pain. The ponies look like as they had caught on fire, then were completely enveloped in the dark mist. Apple Bloom watches in terror, so horrified she couldn't even scream.
Finally, it subsides, and returns to the satchel. In the place of the three ponies, were three giant purple dragons, with wings, claws, and elephant like tusks that protruded from their mouths.




Tirek had transformed them.
The only distinctive difference between the three dragons, or any evidence that they were once ponies, were the fact that they still had their cutie marks on their hind legs.

"And thus is the power of the Rainbow of Darkness!" Tirek said as he cackles evilly.

Apple Bloom was in complete shock. She was so horrified, she didn't know that she was being unchained by Scorpan.

"Take the little one back to the dungeon. I will decide what to do with her later."  Tirek ordered.

Scorpan could only look on in disgust at what Tirek had done. He also gives a very sympathetic look towards Apple Bloom.

"I wish it didn't have to come to this." Scorpan said to himself, as he leads the filly back to the dungeon.

As Scorpan exits with Apple Bloom, one of the lizardmen guards approaches Tirek.

"My lord, our guests have arrived." He said.

"Excellent, show them the way in." Tirek responded.

The guard then exits the room. A few minutes later, he returns with two other individuals. One was a blue ram, with a bell around his neck, sharp teeth, and red, pupiless eyes. Another was a Donkey, wearing what was a red hood on his head.



They both approch Tirek.

"Ah, Grogar" He addresses the ram, "I see you and your assistant Bray have made it to our scheduled meeting after all."

"Tirek," Grogar replied, "I hope you will hold up your end of the bargain, by returning Castle Tambelon, my old home, back to this world from the ninth plane of Tartarus. Celestia had banished it from where Ponyville is currently centuries ago."

"All in due time Grogar." Tirek replied, "but for now, I will require your assistance. Scorpan had failed to bring me more ponies to pull my Dark Chariot. I would like you and Bray to accompany me in another raid into Ponyville to bring back abled bodies."

"What's so important about this chariot m'lord?" Bray asked.

"The chariot is imbued with dark magic, the strongest kind. Once it is airborne, it will increase the power of my Darkness Rainbow by tenfold!" Tirek explained. "Then, I will be able to use it to cover entire cities with it's power, and create an army large enough, to enslave the entire region."

"Just don't forget Tirek," Grogar interrupted, "You are to restore Castle Tambelon into the heart of Ponyville, where I will rule it's inhabitants."

"Of course Grogar, Of course." Tirek answered with a sly grin.

Scorpan then returns to the throne room.

"Scorpan," Tirek called to him. "Prepare the troops for another raid. Grogar and Bray will be accompanying us."

With this, Scorpan, and Tirek exit the throne room.

"Master Grogar," Bray addressed the ram, "Do you think we can really trust them?"

"Of course not Bray." Grogar replied. "Once Tamberlon is restored in Ponyville, I will use the castle's magical properties to destroy Tirek, and take his Rainbow of Darkness for myself." 

"Yes, excellent plan master." 

Grogar then shoots an energy bolt from his horns at Bray.

"Stop your groveling and make yourself useful. Prepare for the raid!"









The Mane 6, Spike, and Chopper were treking through the dark Everfree Forest, when Spike hears a rustling noise coming from the bushes behind them.

"Hey, I hear something. OVER THERE!" he called pointing at the bushes. Everyone stops in their tracks, and take defensive stances.

The bushes continue to rustle.

"Alright, we know you're in there, come out with your hooves in the air!" Rainbow Dash yelled.

From the bushes, two small figures emerge. It was Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo.

"SWEETIE BELLE!" Rarity gasped.

"Scoots!" Rainbow called out.

"What are you two doing here?" Twilight Sparkle scolded. "It's too dangerous for young filles to be here on their own. You should be back in Ponyville."

"But you brought Spike, he's no older than us." Sweetie Belle complained.

"Spike's my assistant. He's somewhat trained for this." Twilight Sparkle retorted.

"We're sorry," Sweetie Belle said in an apologetic tone. "We only wanted to save Apple Bloom."

"Yeah," Scootaloo added, "She must be scared outta her mind. She's our friend, and we can't just leave her behind."

"I understand, and appreciate the concern girls," Rarity said, "But this is no place for youngsters like you."

"Well, we can't really take em' back to Ponyville," Applejack said, "We're already too far out."

"You silly fillies better stay close to us then, and your Auntie Pinkie Pie will take care of everything!" Pinkie chimed in.

Sweetie and Scootaloo then see Chopper.

"Who's that little guy? I though you said no other kids were supposed to come." Scootaloo asked.

"I'm not a kid, I'm Tony Tony Chopper, a doctor." Chopper replied to the pegasus filly.

"Well, what are you?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"I'm a reindeer." He answered.

"You don't look like a reindeer." Sweetie Belle replied.

"Hush Sweetie Belle!" Rarity scolded. "Stop being so rude, he's a guest in our land."

"Sorry Dr. Chopper." Sweetie apologized.

"So what do we do now?" Scootaloo questioned as she looked around at her surroundings.

"Simple, we get to that darn Midnight Castle, rescue all dem's captured ponies, Mah Sister too, and git the Elements to stop that Tirek varmint and restore Princess Celestia." Applejack said.

"Easier said than done." Rainbow Dash cynically replied.

"But that doesn't mean we can't have some fun along the way." Pinkie said as she bounces around the two fillies and Chopper. "How about we sing a song to help pass the time, and make it less scary?"

She then breaks into song, singing her "NO FEAR!" song.

The song broke the tense atmosphere and calmed the two fillies, as well as Fluttershy.

As they continued to walk through the forest, Fluttershy notices something seems to be following them.

"Girls, I have a very bad feeling about this." she said, as she runs up behind Chopper.

Chopper himself begins to sniff the air. Something definately was following them.

"I can pick up a scent." Chopper said, "We're being followed." 

He continues to sniff. Chopper follows the scent to a cluster of trees.

"We know you're there, come on out!" he said as he transforms into his Heavy Point.

"WHOA!" Both young fillies call out as they watch him change his form.

"Hahahaha!" a voice laughed from the woods. "So you finally figured out I was here."

A pair of yellow glowing eyes then appeared in the woods, and a large figure swoops out. This startles Chopper as he yelps, and turns back into his Brain Point.

The figure, was a large puffy creature. His body seemed to be made of light grey cloud-like material. With a humanoid form with two arms, a head, and no legs. Instead a long ghost like tail was the lower half.



"Wha??? Who? Who are you?" Chopper asked fearfully.

"Call me Arabus, the great cloud demon!" it replied. "I have been cut a deal with Tirek. If I eliminate the holders of the Elements of Harmony, I will be promised to rule Cloudsdale as my own domain."

"Fat chance airhead!" Rainbow Dash angrily yelled at Arabus. "Like Cloudsdale will ever be ruled by a punk like you."

"Watch your tongue pegasus, that's no way to address your future lord and ruler." Arabus replied.

"Well Ah've heard enough!" Applejack said as she rushes forward to buck him, but her legs pass right through Arabus.

"Ha! You can't even touch me. What hopes do you have to beat me."

"Uh-oh, this ain't good." the orange cowmare said, as Arabus sucks in air, and blows out a strong gust that sends Applejack flying into a tree.

"Applejack!" Rarity called out. "You'll pay for that you ruffian!"

She attempts to punch and kick Arabus, but with the same results. Arabus also brushes her aside with a swat of his hand.

Twilight then begins to shoot a magical beam at Arabus. It too passes through him harmlessly.

"This isn't good." Chopper said. "Everything we throw at him just passes through him. I wish Nami was here. Her tornado tempo may be able to blow him away...... Wait, THAT'S IT!"

"Twilight!" Chopper called to the unicorn. "Do you think you can create wind with that horn of yours?"

"I sure can!" She answered as she prepares to use a wind spell. 

"Oh no you don't!" Arabus called out, as he began to throw lightning bolts at the unicorn.

Twilight was able to jump out of the way. Arabus then begins to throw bolts at Fluttershy, only for Chopper to transform into his Heavy Point again and pick her up in his arms before she was struck. Fluttershy, seeing the reindeer she was so fond of holding her, began to fluster and blush again, even though their lives were in danger, she didn't mind.

Chopper then sees Rainbow Dash ram into Arabus. He was sent flying back. Rainbow then began to kick him and it looked like he was taking damage.

"Yeah that's right, we pegasi can touch clouds like they're solid objects. That means I can kick your butt!" Rainbow Dash said in triumph.

Chopper couldn't believe what he saw. Then he remembered that other pegasi were pushing clouds around when they were back in Ponyville. But how was it possible?

He thought for a second, then he realized it! He remembered what Luffy said a while back. It was something he learned while he was training with Silvers Rayleigh. HAKI!

Rainbow Dash, and the Pegasi must possess Armament Haki! It was just like how certain people, like Rayleigh himself, were able to go toe to toe with Logia type Devil Fruit users. If Dash could keep this up, they might have a fighting chance.

"Fluttershy, are you able to touch clouds too?" Chopper asked her as he puts her down.

"Well, yes, but I don't know what I can do." She replied.

"I have an Idea." He said, as he also called over Twilight Sparkle.

"Taste the rainbow!" Rainbow Dash yelled as she continued to kick Arabus.

"Eat lightning!" He responded as the threw bolts at her.

"Ohhh, Twich-a-Twich! Dashie to your left!" Pinkie yelled out.

Rainbow Dash moved to her left, as a bolt flew past, barely missing her.

"PINKIE SENSE! PINKIE SENSE! Now duck!" The pink pony yelled again.

Rainbow dash ducked down as Arabus threw a swing and missed.

Chopper again notices this.

"Pinkie, she must have Observation Haki." He said to himself. "They both possess the same Haki abilites like Luffy's. That's great news for us!"

"Keep it up Pinkie!" Rarity said as she keeps both Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo out of harm's way.

Pinkie continued to yell warnings to Rainbow Dash, as Dash listened carefully. None of Arabus' attacks were able to touch the blue pegasus.

Chopper began explaining his plan to Twilight and Fluttershy in a huddle. They then break the huddle, and nod in agreement.

"Rainbow Dash, over here quickly!" Twilight called to the pegasus.

"I'll keep him busy." Chopper said, as he transforms into his more agile Kung Fu Point.

He began to do flips in the air, kicking a number of rocks and tree branches towards Arabus, even though they pass right through him.

He then begins to run in a zig zag motion while Arabus throws more lighting bolts at him. But Chopper was too quick for them to hit.

"Now girls!" Twilight called as both Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy fly up to Arabus, and begin to circle him.

"What are you doing?" a confused Arabus yelled.

They continue to circle him and then begin to pick up speed. They fly faster and faster, until they form a small whirlwind around him.

"No stop. You're making me dizzy." He yelled.

Twilight Sparkle, then began to cast a wind spell to add to the vortex the pegasi created.

Arabus slowly began to lose his form.

"No stop! Please! I, I give up, I surrender, just stop what you're doing!" he begged.

The spell, and wind tunnel grew slightly, but it was all they could do.

"No, it's not enough." Chopper said.

Twilight, Fluttershy, and Rainbow were already starting to get somewhat tired.

"Hey Chopper!" Scootaloo called as she ran from Rarity. 

"Scootaloo, come back here this instant!" Rarity called.

"Mr. Chopper sir, I'm a pegasus too. I can touch clouds as well. I want you to throw me at him." She said.

"You want me to what?" Chopper asked dumbfounded.

"Throw Me." She replied.

"I can't do that. You'll get hurt." Chopper responded.

"No, I won't, I have this." Scootaloo said, as she pulls out her helmet she usually wears when she rides her scooter in town.

"It's our only chance to beat this guy." Scootaloo said to the reindeer. "Just do it!"

"I don't think we have a choice." Twilight said as she began t strain. "I don't like the idea either, but we need this extra force."

Reluctantly, Chopper agreed. He transforms into his strongest form, his Heavy Point, picks up Scootaloo, winds up his arm, and is about to chuck her straight at Arabus.

"I just hope my aim is as good as Usopp's." he says as he launches the filly at the cloud demon.

Scootaloo flies towards him, she curls herself up into a ball, and begins to spin. She strikes him directly in his chest. It was enough force to rip a hole through him. His weakened form, combined with the wind tunnel the others created, couldn't hold together anymore, and he begins to dissapate.

"NOOOOOOOO!" He bellows as he literally falls apart into nothingness. Arabus, was gone. Defeated.

All the ponies give a huge cheer as Scootaloo slams into a tree. But thanks to her helmet, she wasn't seriously hurt.

Everyone immediately runs up to see if she's ok.

Scoots simply bounces up, and gives a huge grin.

"That was fun!" She said, "I hope we can do that again!"

"Not bad squirt." Rainbow Dash says as she picks her up. "You really helped save the day."

"Coming from you Rainbow Dash, that means everything to me." Scootaloo said, as she gives her mentor a hugs.

"I can't believe you and Pinkie Pie possess the power of Haki." Chopper said, "But then again, I guess I shouldn't be that surprised."

"Huh?" everyone else looked at him dumbfounded.

"what's Haki?" Spike asked. 

Chopper transforms back into his Brain Point, and begins to explain.

"Haki  is a mysterious power that is found in every living being in the world. It is not that different from the normal senses. However, most people do not notice it or fail to awaken it. Broadly, there are two types of Haki common to everyone, given the proper training; however, there is a third type that only a certain group of "chosen ones" are said to possess. In simple terms, Haki is an ability to sense spiritual energy and overpower enemies." Chopper explained.

"Rainbow Dash, It seems you, and all the Pegasi possess Armament Haki. It acts like an invisible armor. Naturally this invisible armor can be used as a weapon to strike others with. It can be used to augment the user's own attacks, projected ahead of the user as pure brute force, or imbued in weapons to increase their effectiveness. Any attack enhanced by Armament Haki hits immensely harder than it would normally be without it. It also probably explains whey you can also touch inanimate objects such as clouds."

"Well fancy that!" Rainbow Dash said with a grin on her face. "We're just naturally that cool!"

"And Pinkie, I saw what you did. You have Observation Haki. It's a form of Haki that allows the user to sense the presence of others, even if they are concealed from view or too far to see naturally. With enough skill, one can use this Haki to predict an opponent's moves shortly before they make them, thereby making the attack that much easier to evade. This prediction appears to the user as an image or brief premonition of what the opponent will do in the user's mind's eye, and the damage the user will take if the attack actually "hits". It appears that the more killing intent the enemy has, the easier they are to predict. Although, more skilled users can predict future moves whether there are ambient murderous intents or not. This pretty much explains that sixth sense of yours."

"I don't understand half the stuff you just said," Pinkie replied, "But it sounded really neat. So I'll just stick to my good ole' Pinkie Sense story."

"Amazing!" Twilight said. "That actually makes A LOT of sense for all the events that happened. So all living beings have the potential for this Haki ability. When we finish our quest, I'd like to study it more."

"Wow, you're really smart Chopper." Fluttershy said, "You must study alot just like Twilight." 

"Well, it's a part of a doctor's job to read all the time." Chopper replied to her. 

"He's smart, strong, brave, and kind hearted." Fluttershy thought to herself, as she let out a sigh. "Oh I should tell him how I feel before he leaves us, but....Oh, I just can't find the courage."


"Well, it's best we get goin' on the rest of this here trip." Applejack said. "I gotta get mah sister back. A'hm so worried about Apple Bloom."

"Indeed Applejack. I swear we'll do everything to get her back." Rarity added, "now let's move shall we? Come along now Sweetie Belle...... Sweetie Belle? Where..... WHERE IS SHE??!!

Rarity began to panic. Sweetie Belle was no where in sight. All the ponies, Spike, and Chopper began calling for her.

"Where could she have run off to? I hope she's alright." Rarity said as her panicking grew worse.

"I'll go look for her." Spike said as he runs off into the brush.

"No Spike come back! We have to stick together!" Twilight called.

But it was too late. Spike had already dissappered as well.

"Do you have anything that belongs to her Rarity?" Chopper asked.

"Unfortunately, no, I don't at the moment." Rarity replied.

"Darn, I was hoping I could use something to pick up her scent. My nose has never steered me wrong." He replied.

"Great, now Spike's run off too." Pinkie Pie said dissappointed.







Somewhere in the forest, Spike was calling for Sweetie Belle. As he continued to walk he realized he had just made a big mistake. He was now lost.

"Smooth move. Not the smartest thing you've done." He said to himself. "So now what do I do?"

Suddenly, he hears a rustle behind him.

"Sweetie Belle? That better be you." He walks towards the sound. Instead it was one of Tirek's Stegadons.

Spike yells in terror as he tries to flee, but the Stegadon grabs him, and then takes off into the air.





"Where could she be?" Rarity asked, as they all hear a rustling sound coming from behind them.

They all take a defensive stance, and the figure emerges. It was Sweetie Belle.

"THERE YOU ARE! What were you doing?" Rarity angrily asked.

"Well, you know, when nature calls, you kinda, have to answer." She said while blushing.

"Oh....." Everyone replied, also blushing.

"Well, at least let us know next time." Twilight said.

"Sorry everypony." Sweetie Belle replied.

"Well now we have another problem." Chopper said to the others. "Spike is missing."

But as soon as Chopper finished speaking, they see one of Tirek's stegadons fly through the air. Rainbow Dash notices that Spike was being carried by it. Twilight gives a shriek in horror.

"SPIKE NO!" She yelled.

Rainbow Dash tries to give chase, but she feels a sharp pain in her right wing, and falls to the ground.

"Dashie! Are you ok?" Pinkie asked with concern.

"My wing, there's something wrong." She replied.

Twilight could only look with horror as the stegadon flies away with her best friend.

"Spike......SPIKE!" She called for her dragon as she began to break down sobbing.

"Twilight, We'll get him back, don't you worry now sugarcube." Applejack said. "Ah know how ya feel. Got that same feelin' when they took Bloom."

"We have to get him back!" Twilight said as she gets back on her feet.

"Rainbow Dash, you're gonna have to take it easy. You over stressed your wing in the previous battle. I'm afraid it's slightly sprained." Chopper said as he bandages her wing.

"So you're saying I'm grounded..... Just great...." She said angrily.

"All we can do now is move forward." Fluttershy said to the others.

All the ponies, and Chopper nod in agreement.

"We'll get our friends back. I promise!" Chopper said as he and the others continue their march through the Everfree Forest.

> A dark secret; Spike's true origin revealed!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Tony Tony Chopper finds himself in the land of Equestria; where it is populated not by humans, but talking ponies. Equestria is under attack by the dark demon Tirek. Chopper and his new pony friends must travel to Midnight Castle to rescue their captured friends, and find the Elements of Harmony to defeat the evil threat.





Spike began to slowly awaken, as he started to notice his surroundings. He notices that he's in a dark room, with a stone floor. It was cold, and what appeared to be a barred door in front of him.

"Hey, looks like he's wakin' up." A familiar young sounding, female voice with a southern accent said, as Spike turned around to see who it was.

It was none other than Apple Bloom, next to her was her brother, Big Macintosh, and the teacher, Cheerilee.

"Glad to see yer ok Spike." Apple Bloom said, as she walked up to him and hugged him.

"Apple Bloom!" Spike called out happily. "I'm relieved to see you're safe. Well, as safe as you can be here."

He then turns his attention to Mac, and Cheerilee.

"What happened? How did you two get captured?" He asked them.

"Oh Spike, it was terrible." Cheerilee explained. "After you, Twilight Sparkle, and the others left, those monsters came back and attacked Ponyville again. Even more ponies were captured and taken here this time around.
Big Macintosh did his best to try to fight them off. But it wasn't enough. He was caught along side me, and a number of others. Not even the Wonderbolts could stop them."

"Eeyup." Big Macintosh added sadly.

"But what about Princess Luna, and Shining Armor?" Spike asked.

"They were unable to stop the attack either. That Centaur monster used some magical staff, and turned Princess Luna, Shining Armor, and even Princess Cadence, into statues. They were then brought here with the rest of us."

Spike's jaw dropped. Not only Celestia, but even Luna, Cadence, and Shining Armor had fallen in battle. Spike couldn't believe it. Now, more then ever, Equestria needed the Elements of Harmony.

"I...I.... I have to believe in Twilight and the others!" Spike said to the school teacher.

"I know they can do it. Twilight's never let us down before. I know she and the others can save us all."

"And Ah believe in AJ too." Apple Bloom added. "We Apples NEVER give in!"

"EEYUP!" Big Macintosh added, this time, with more confidence.

Cheerilee then nuzzles her red stallion coltfriend.

"Well, if this is indeed the end, we at least have each other." Cheerilee said, as she gently kisses him on his cheek.

"Eeyup." Macintosh replied, as he gently nuzzles her back.

"Don't give up hope. I know the others will come through for us." Spike reassured the three ponies.

"That's right, Ah know we can pull through this, somehow." Apple Bloom added.


They then hear some footsteps heading towards them. It was the ram, Grogar, with two of Tirek's lizardmen guards.
The guards unlock the door, and ordered the prisoners to step out.

"All prisoners are to come to the throne room of Lord Tirek this instant." The guard said.

He waves for Apple Bloom, Cheerilee, Mac, and Spike to exit. As soon as they leave the cell, Big Macintosh does the unthinkable.

"NOW!" He yells, as he begins to attack the two guards.

He bucks them both into the wall.

"Cheerilee, Spike, Sis, RUN!" He calls to the others.

But before any of them could react, Grogar fires an energy blast from his horns. It strikes Big Macintosh, sending him flying into the wall. He then lies on the ground, groaning.

"BIG MACHINTOSH!" Apple Bloom cried out.

Cheerilee immediately ran up to her special somepony, and gently cradled him in her forelegs.

"Oh Mac, why did you have to be so heroic?" 

"Enough," Grogar snarled, "you all are to come with me this instant." 

Within seconds, two more guards show and point their spears at the four prisoners. They are then escorted to the throne room.

As they reach the throne room, they see a rather large number of other ponies. Unicorns, Pegasi, and Earth Ponies alike were taken prisoner. Grogar, Bray, and Scorpan watch from the side of the throne, as Tirek sits, looking at the mass of ponies the troops had brought in.

Grogar and Bray gave evil grins, while Scorpan simply hangs his head in shame, feelin guilty that he was involved in the kidnappings of multiple ponies.

Something in the back of the room catches Spike's attention. What he saw were the stone forms of Celestia, Luna, Cadence, and Shining Armor. All standing in a row, put on pedestals. Tirek was displaying them as if they were trophies.
It put knots in the little dragon's stomach.

Tirek approaches the mass of ponies, and looks at several of them intently.

"None of these seem to be strong enough to pull my chariot." He says, "But, I have other uses for them."

He then reaches for the satchel hanging around his neck, which was again, pulsating like a sickening heartbeat, and opens it. The Rainbow of Darkness shoots out again, and engulfs the entire crowd of ponies, as they shriek in terror.

Cheerilee, Big Macintosh, and Spike, could only watch in horror as the crowd of ponies look like they were set on fire, only for their bodies to begin to change in warp into other forms. Apple Bloom had already seen this before, but she was still terrified by the events.

As the darkness subsides, and returns to the satchel, all the earth ponies and unicorns were turned into the lizard troops, and all the pegasi were transformed into the winged stegadons.

"You will now serve in my army. Swear your loyalty to me, and know that I am your one and only ruler." Tirek addressed his new troops.

"So that's where all these monsters came from." Spike said.

Grogar, and Bray began laughing at the events, while Scorpan simply turned his head away in disgust.

"What's the matter Scorpan? Too much for you to take?" Grogar mocked.

Scorpan simply glared at the ram in silence.

Scorpan then walks up to Spike, and his group. As he sees Spike, he immediately recognized him.

"Spike?" Scorpan addressed him. "Oh no.... I.... I didn't want this to happen to you...."

"Huh, how do you know me?" Spike asked in confusion.

"I was once your caretaker." Scorpan answered.

"What?" Spike replied. "I don't know what you're talking about. Twilight Sparkle hatched me when I was an egg. I've lived with her all my life be it Canterlot, or Ponyville. I've never seen you before."

Spike was clearly angry, as Scorpan simply looked at him sadly.

"I was the care taker for your egg, before it was placed in Canterlot under Celestia's care." Scorpan answered.

"That is correct little Spike." Tirek added, as he approches Spike and the others.

"Wha? What do you mean?" Spike angrily yelled at Tirek.

"You know so little about your past. You have no idea, that the fall of Equestria was your doing my little friend." Tirek said.
"You see, I once conquered a kingdom from the far North of this continent several centuries ago after Discord was defeated by Celestia and Luna. This kingdom, is where Scorpan came from. After I subjegated Scorpan's people, I forced him to serve under me. At first he refused, but then I realized there was a special egg he was caring for. Your Egg.
You see Spike, Scorpan had  promised a certain Dragon Noble, he would care for his unhatched offspring. The noble was old and ill, and he was unable to care for you himself. Shortly, he passed from this world, and Scorpan took it upon himself to see that you were properly taken care of.
I then seized you away from him. I had found Scorpan's weakness. By holding you hostage, I was able to bend his will to my rule. It wasn't long that I had my sights on Equestria. I needed a mole, or spy, to say..... That's when I cast a special spying spell on your egg. When you were to finally hatch, everything you saw, heard, and experienced, will be transmitted here without your knowledge."

Tirek points to a crystal ball in front of his throne. 
Spike could feel his blood run cold, as he listened to the story.

"Due to an unfortunate event of my guard being down, Celestia and Luna banished myself and Scorpan to Tartarus.
We were only able to escape around ten years ago. When we were finally out, I realized that your egg was still intact.
That's when I had Scorpan infiltrate the walls of Canterlot, and planted you into the royal castle.
Celestia found your egg, realizing that it was that of a dragon, she couldn't pass up the opportunity to have you hatched into pony society. She believed having you live amongst ponies will help build friendly relations between dragons and ponies.
Little did she know, it was to serve my purpose to conquer her. Everything you've ever experienced, all that you saw, all that you heard, all that you learned, has been done so for me! I saw and heard everything. I know all the secrets of Canterlot and Ponyville. Your relationships with the Element holders, the adventures you all had. Including the arrival of this outside interloper Reindeer called Chopper. I know it all. So thank you Spike. Now that Celestia is out of the picture, and more than half of Ponyville's population is under my control, you are of no more use to me."


Spike couldn't believe what he heard. All this time, he was nothing but a tool for evil. His whole life, had been nothing but a lie. He had put the ones he loved the most in danger, just by existing. Spike was completely devastated.

"It can't be true. IT CAN'T!" He yelled out in defiance.

"Oh but I assure you, it IS indeed the truth." Tirek said, as he waves his scepter over Spike.

Spike began to glow, and a dark looking mist rises from his body, then dissapates.

"You, you're removing the spy spell from him?" Scorpan asked.

"Indeed. I have no more use for him." Tirek said as he gives an evil grin.

"I can't believe it. I've been a traitor all this time. I put everypony in danger, just by simply being around you....." Spike said to his three friends. "Twilight... I'm sorry..... I'M SO SORRY! If you ever found out about this, I know you'll HATE me forever." 

Spike began to cry, harder than he ever did in his life.

"Spike," Cheerilee said to him as she put her hoof on his shoulder. "Twilight would never hate you."

Spike looks up to her, as she, Big Mac, and Apple Bloom gaze at him with loving, and sympathetic eyes.

"How can you say that? I put all of you in danger. I'm a monster. You shouldn't be around me." He said sadly.

"No, it wasn't your fault. Your life may have been to serve a great evil, but you still lived a good life. You lived a happy life, one full of fun, full of friends, and most importantly, full of love. Twilight loves you, we all do, and we always will. You're heart is always in the right place Spike. I'm glad to have known you. You're the sweetest and most kindly hearted individual I know. You have the freedom to choose between right and wrong, and you always did the right thing." 

"Eeyup!" Big Macintosh agreed.

Apple Bloom hugged the little dragon, this time harder than ever.

"We love ya Spike, ain't nothin's ever gonna change that. Ah'm happy to have ya as a friend." 

"Enough of this sentimental foolishness." Tirek said as he turns his attention to Cheerilee and Big Mac.

"Ah yes, these two will do nicely." He then opens the satchel as the Rainbow of Darkness shoots out.

"SPIKE, APPLE BLOOM! BE STRONG!" Cheerilee said.

"Bloom, Ah Love you, little sis. Be brave, and never give up! Spike, you take care of my lil' sis. Ya hear?" Big Mac called out.

The Rainbow of darkness then engulfs both Cheerilee and Big Macintosh, as they embrace each other and share a kiss one last time.

Once the Darkness subsides and returns to the Satchel, two more giant dragons with elephant like tusks stood where the two earh ponies were. Big Mac and Cheerilee have been completely transformed. The only thing that had any evidence that they were once ponies, were their cutie marks, still on their hind legs.

"Big Brother! Miss Cheerilee, NO!" Apple Bloom tearfully yelled out.

"You evil freak!" Spike yelled in anger.

"Take the two back to their cells." Tirek ordered, as several lizard guards escort Spike and Apple Bloom back.

"Scorpan." Tirek ordered, "Send another one of our allies to slow down the Element holders. I need to buy some more time. And be warned. If you fail me one more time, a head will roll..... Spike's!"


Scorpan was horrified by Tirek's words. But simply bowed silently, and left the throne room.



Back in the dungeons, Spike and Apple Bloom would only sit next to each other in silence. Trying to comprehend the events that had just transpired.
They then suddenly hear what sounds like a scuffle down the hall, and what then sounded like several heavy bodies hitting the ground with loud thumps. Then footsteps started to approach their cell. It was Scorpan, with a key ring in his hand.

He then unlocks the cell door, and motions for Apple Bloom and Spike to follow him.

"What are you doing?" Spike asked.

"Getting you and your friend out of here. Hurry before it's too late."

"Yeah, right, like we're gonna trust you." Spike snarled.

"Ah dunno Spike, Ah mean, yeah he works for that Tirek guy, but the whole time Ah've been here, he's been pretty nice to me." Apple Bloom said.

"Please, we must hurry." Scorpan pleaded with the two.

Spike, reluctantly agreed, and he and Apple Bloom follow Scorpan out of the cell.

"Please tread lightly, we don't want to attract too much unwanted attention." Scorpan said as they walk down the hall.
"And Spike. I am SO sorry for putting you through such a tramatizing experience. I only hope that you can forgive me some day. It's high time I redeemed my poor miserable soul."








The ponies, after their battle with Arabus, have decided to take a break, and set up a camp. Chopper checked on Rainbow Dash's wing. It had healed somewhat, but she was still in no condition for any long term flying. Applejack was resting against a rock, playing a harmonica, while Rarity and Twilight set up a campfire. Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo had fallen asleep.


"There, these clean bandages should do the trick." Chopper said as he finished changing the bandages on Rainbow's wing.

"Thanks, It's good to have a doctor with us this time." Rainbow replied. "You're pretty cool to have around."

"Cool?" Chopper said as he began to blush, then waved his body into his happy dance again. "Calling me cool won't make me happy, you idiot." 

Rainbow Dash began laughing as she watched him wave his body around.

"That NEVER gets old." She says, greatly amused by Chopper's happy dance.

"Hey," Pinkie Pie addresses everyone. "Have any of you seen Fluttershy?"

"Huh?" Chopper said as he looks around. Pinkie was right, Fluttershy was no where in sight.

"Where is she? It's not safe for her to wander off alone." Twilight Sparkle said as she lights her horn like a flash light.

"Oh, I do hope she didn't wander off too far." Rarity added.

"Don't worry, I'll find her." Chopper said, as he began to sniff for her scent.

He follows the trail of her scent, and finds her, sitting alone, by a river bank. She was silently crying to herself.

"Fluttershy, there you are. We were looking for you. You had us worried." Chopper said.

"Oh, um...." She replied, as she wipes the tears from her eyes.

"You ok? Why are you crying?" He asked.

"Oh, I'm just so frustrated. And I'm mad at myself. Especially with what happened to Spike."

Chopper looked at her with some confusion.

"With Rainbow Dash's wing injured, I'm the only flyer we have. And I did NOTHING to try to save Spike."

"Hey, you can't blame yourself for what happened." He replied to her.

"I'm a coward! I'm nothing but a useless pony who's scared of EVERYTHING! Oh Twilight must HATE me for letting them take Spike away." Fluttershy said to the reindeer.

Chopper, in his diminutive, tiny bipedal form, then walks up to Fluttershy, and sits next to her.

"Hey, don't worry, it's ok to be scared sometimes." He said while trying to comfort her.

"But it's not just sometimes with me. I'm scared ALL THE TIME!" She said as she let out a large sob.

Chopper puts his hoof on hers. She squeaks lightly, then stops her crying.

"No, it's ok to be scared. There's nothing wrong with that. Heck, I get scared all the time." He said to her.

This took Fluttershy slightly aback. She never imagined someone as strong as Chopper to ever be scared of anything.

"You get scared?" She asked.

"Yeah, a lot of times. No matter how strong or tough you are. Everyone has something they're afraid of. Even me. Like that one time I was alone on our first ship, the Going Merry while in Skypiea. One of Enel's generals found me, and tried to kill me. I had to whistle for help. Thankfully a knight named Gan Fall was there to save me. And then, there were several times I almost drowned. The rest of the crew had to pull me out of the sea. And let's not forget about the giant zombie, Oars, he was the biggest monster I've ever seen. The entire crew was terrified, but we still fought him, and won. So you see, even the best of us can be scared. You just need to help yourself overcome it. Your friends will always be there to help you too."

Fluttershy listened intently, and then threw her forelegs around Chopper in a tight embrace. 

"And Fluttershy, I know Twilight will never hate you. You're her friend, and she'll always care about you. Just like how I know Luffy and the others will always be there for me whenever I'm in trouble. Your friends will be there by your side no matter how grim the situation can get. I was separated for two years from them, and we still pulled through for each other. If I can survive that, we can all survive this."

"Oh thank you Chopper." Fluttershy said, as new tears flowed from her eyes. These were tears of happiness and encouragement.

Chopper simply smiled, and hugged her back.

"AWWWW!"

Chopper and Fluttershy turn around to see, Rarity, Pinkie, Twilight, Applejack, and Sweetie Belle looking at them with glittery eyes, while Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo were making gagging sounds.

"How, How long were you all standing there?" Chopper asked while blushing.

"Oh we heard the whole thing my dear." Rarity teased.

"Fluttershy, what Chopper said is true. We can never hate you. And I don't blame you for what happened. We were all scared. I mean, heck, I almost wet myself when we were fighting that cloud demon, and when Spike was snatched away." Twilight said, as she gave Fluttershy a friendly nudge. "We love you, Fluttershy, you're family to us."

All the other ponies nod in agreement.


Chopper looks at the ponies, as he reflects what Luffy said to him once.

"Chopper, We're friends. And friends never leave each other behind. We'll always be there for each other. No matter how tough things get, we'll always have each other. Now let's go on a voyage to follow our dreams, and have the most fun ever!"

"Luffy," Chopper thought to himself. "I wish you and the others were here. We could really use your help."

Chopper then stands up, and with more confidence than ever, he addresses the others.

"All we can do now is continue to move forward. I believe that as long as we stick together, there's nothing that can stop us. Our dedication and friendship to each other is our greatest strength. Nothing can stop that, or take it away from us. We will succeed! For your homes, for your families, and for living a life of freedom. If Luffy were here, he'd agree with me100% and back us up."

All the ponies cheer in agreement.

"Ah here ya sugarcube. For Apple Bloom, and the rest of the Apple Family!" Applejack said.

"For Spike!" Twilight added.

"For Angel Bunny, and all the poor animals." Fluttershy said.

"For our RIGHT TO PARTY!" Pinkie Pie chimed in.

"For our future!" Both Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle said in unison.

"For Cloudsdale, and the pride of all Pegasi." Rainbow Dash added.

The group then form a circle, and all of them put in their right hooves.

"And, for Equestria!" Twilight Sparkle added.

"Chopper," a familiar voice seemed to say in his head. It was that of Luffy's.
"You're all grown up now, and becoming a man. We're all proud of you!"
> Octopus Monster Squirk attacks; Chopper goes all out!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Tony Tony Chopper finds himself in the land of Equestria; where it is populated not by humans, but talking ponies. Equestria is under attack by the dark demon Tirek. Chopper and his pony friends are on a quest to recover the Elements of Harmony, and rescue their captured friends and family.


As the ponies and Chopper continue to travel through the Everfree Forest, Pinkie Pie suddenly begins to have twiches and spasms throughout her entire body.

"OOOOOOAAAAHHH" She yelled out. "My Pinkie Sense is going crazy!"

She then falls to the ground, clutching her head.

"No, something bad just happened! It's like suddenly, a lot of ponies' happy voices went silent, then got replaced with that of something very mean sounding!" She continued to yell.

"Pinkie, what's wrong?" Twilight asked as she put her hoof on Pinkie's shoulder.

"I can hear them. It's like they're hurting. It's like they're calling for help, then started sounding angry, and mean." Pinkie said.

"Ah don't know what's goin' on with ya Sugarcube," Applejack interjected, "but Ah think you need to lie down for a sec and take a break."

"I'm NOT CRAZY Applejack!" Pinkie yelled at her, "I can always sense when somepony is happy, sad, or angry. But this is different, like they've lost all reason."

"Haki...." Chopper muttered.

"That Haki thing again?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Pinkie must possess an incredibly powerful form of Observational Haki. It allows one to feel the presence of others. Sometimes, even their emotions." Chopper explained. "When someone is knocked out, or dies, usually one who possesses this Haki, can feel it. With a large scale of ponies she's sensing, something really bad must have happened."

All the ponies give worried looks.

"What if something terrible happened to the captured ponies? Or Ponyville?" Rarity asked with worry.

"Apple Bloom!" Applejack called her sister's name in concern.

"This is getting too scary." Sweetie Belle added, while Scootaloo tried to put on a fake brave face, yet she herself was terrified.

Pinkie Pie then rubs her head, and climbs back on her feet.

"Well, whatever happened, it's gone now." She said. "Welp, we just gotta keep going!" She then gives a large grin.

"You ok Pinkie?" Fluttershy asked.

"I'm A-OK!" She said, back to her cheerful manner.

"Let's keep going." Twilight ordered as the group continued to move on.

"You know Pinkie," Chopper said to her, "With the right amount of training, you can learn to control your Haki."

"Nah, that sounds like too much work, and not fun at all." Pinkie said to the reindeer/human hybrid. "I just like my Pinkie Sense the way it is."

"Suit yourself." Chopper said, as he looks at Pinkie with concern.

He didn't want Pinkie to have another panic attack if her Haki went out of control again.


After some more walking, they come across a long rope bridge. Beneath was a raging river. The bridge didn't look too strong, and seemed to be very old.

"Do we really have to cross that?" Fluttershy asked nervously.

"We have to." Twilight Sparkle answered, "It's the only other way I know of that will get us to Midnight Castle in order to retrieve the Elements, and stop Tirek."

"If my wing wasn't sprained, I'd fly us all across." Rainbow Dash said.

"Well, Maybe I can carry you each across one by one?" Fluttershy asked.

"Sorry Fluttershy, but that would take too long. We need to get to the castle ASAP!" Twilight answered.

"What's ASAP? Is that like some kind of sweet tree sap?" Pinkie asked.

The others just facehoofed.

"Well, we best get a move on." Applejack said.

"I'll go first." Twilight replied as she steps onto the bridge.

It was a bit wobbly, but so far, it supported her weight.

"Seems ok, alright, each of you step on slowly." She ordered, as the others began to step onto the bridge.

"Rarity, I'm scared...." Sweetie Belle said to her sister.

"It's alright, just climb on my back, and don't look down." Rarity said, as Sweetie Belle climbs on Rarity, and covers her eyes.

"If..... If, Rainbow Dash can do this.... ummm... Then....then so CAN I!" Scootaloo said, in a nervous voice as she follows and stays close to the blue pegasus.

"Oh, this is really scary. I don't know if I can go through with this." Fluttershy muttered as she stops halfway on the bridge.

Chopper was equally terrified, especially since he was a devil fruit user. If he falls, he'll sink like a rock. However, he had to be brave for the other's sake, Especially Fluttershy, who looked up to him, and admired him so much.

He continues to push forward, and tried to ease the yellow pegasus of her fears.

"It's ok, remember, you have wings, and can fly." He said to her.

"Yes, that's right, I have wings. No need to be scared." She said still in her nervous tone.

"I think this is fun!" Pinkie Pie said as she hops across, while shaking the bridge.

"PINKIE!" All the others yell in unison. 

"Stop that, and walk across like everypony else." Rarity scoled, "I swear, you can be so uncivilized some times."

After what seemed like an eternity, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Sweetie Belle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Scootaloo made it across safely. Fluttershy was still on the bridge, treading slowly due to her fear, with Chopper and Applejack behind her.

"Come on sugarcube, you can do it!" Applejack encouraged her friend.

"Just don't look down and keep going." Chopper said. 

But as soon as he said those words, Fluttershy immediately looked downwards, and became paralized.

She began whimpering, and started backing up. 

"Ya gotta move forward!" Applejack said, as she angrily stamps her hoof. That was a mistake.

The plank under Applejack cracks, and gives away.

"Oh horseapples!" She curses, and then falls through the bridge.

"APPLEJACK!" The others scream in terror.

Applejack then plunges into the river below, as the others frantically call to her. 

"That's it, I gotta do something about this." Rainbow yells, as she tears the bandage off her wounded wing.

"Rainbow Dash, you can't!" Twilight yelled, but Rainbow Dash had already taken flight.

A sharp pain was stabbing her wing, but she did her best to ignore it. She had to reach Applejack, and fast.

Applejack, while struggling to keep afloat in the rapids, was still able to pull out her rope from her saddlebags, and threw a lasso out to the bridge. Chopper catches it, but due to him being in his diminutive Brain Point to lessen the weight on the bridge, he was pulled off, and plunges into the river as well.

"NO! CHOPPER!" Fluttershy screamed as she watched her two friends get swept away.

Fluttershy, seeing her friend, and the reindeer she developed feelings for in mortal danger, suddenly found a new sense of courage, and immediately took off, and flew after them, with Rainbow Dash not so far behind.

Chopper began to sink under the surface, as Applejack, while still struggling herself, pulled on the rope where Chopper's arm had become tangled in. She was hoping to at least pull him in closer. 

Rainbow Dash, though suffering great pain, continued to flap her wings faster to catch up with Applejack and Chopper.

Finally, she was right on top of them, as Applejack successfully pulled Chopper close enough for her to grab on to him, and tried to keep his head above water. Fluttershy swoops down, and grabs onto the rope, as Rainbow Dash dives into the water, and grabs hold of Applejack. She then with all her might, springs out of the river, with Applejack on her back, flies towards Fluttershy, who had the rope in her mouth. They both fly to a riverbank edge, where it lead to a large body of water, a lake of sorts. There they rest themselves.

"Thanks Fluttershy, you too RD, Ah thought we had it!" Applejack said to the two pegasi. "And Ah'm sorry for losin' mah cool back there. This was mah fault."

"Hey, don't worry about it," Rainbow Dash said as she rubs her wing. "We all mess up. Just like what I did. I don't think I'll be able to fly for a while."

They look at their surrondings.

"Great, looks like we're separated" Rainbow Dash complained. "We need to get back to the others as soon as we can."

Applejack nodded in agreement.

They then notice Fluttershy is in a state of panic as she stands over Chopper.

"Hey Flutters, What's wrong?" Rainbow asked.

"It's Chopper! HE'S NOT BREATHING!" She screams.

The other two gasp, as they run up to Fluttershy.

"What'll we do?" Applejack asked with worry.

"The only thing I know." Fluttershy answered.

Fluttershy tilts her head back, and presses her mouth against Chopper's. She then began to blow air into his lungs. She then pumps his chest five times. Then presses her mouth against his again, blows in twice, and pumps his chest again five times. She repeats this process at least six times.

"Chopper PLEASE! You have to live! I don't know what I'll do without you!" She pleaded as she tries to revive him.

Right when she was about to put her mouth onto his again, he suddenly shoots out a stream of water out, spraying Fluttershy in the face. Suprising the pegasus, as she gives a high pitched squeal. He then starts coughing, and begins to open his eyes.

"Oh Chopper!" Fluttershy said as she wipes the water from her face. "You're ok! I was so scared for you."

She embraces him, and without warning, presses her lips against his. Chopper was greatly taken aback, as Rainbow Dash and Applejack look on with surprise, then with smirks on their faces.

"Well, Look at that!" Applejack said to Rainbow Dash. "Ah've never thought Ah'd see the day."

"Yeah," Rainbow laughed "Who knew Fluttershy was capable of something like that?"

"Well, we're both glad that Chopper's ok." Applejack said. "Good job Fluttershy, You're a hero."

"Yeah Flutters." Rainbow Dash added, "You saved your boyfriend from drowning."

B....B....Boyfriend??!!" Fluttershy said while blushing.

Chopper was equally surprised, not knowing how to handle the situation. He's never experienced anything like this before.

"Don't hide it sugarcube. We all know ya had feelin's for him." Applejack said.

"Yeah, couldn't have been any MORE obvious." Rainbow added.

Fluttershy at this point, couldn't hold in her embarrassment, and began to panic.

"Oh no, I mean, I, well, I, um..... *squeak*"

Chopper simply blushed as he looked at her, then saw something emerge from the lake behind her.

"FLUTTERSHY LOOK OUT!" Chopper yelled as he pushes her out of the way, as a red tentacle snapped at them.

Chopper then sees more tentacles emerge from the water, as Rainbow Dash and Applejack run up to him.

"What in tarnation's goin' on here?" She yelled as a tentacle came at her, which she easily bucked out of the way.

A total of eight tentacles and then a head emerge from the water. Chopper sees that it was a red octopus, and a giant one as well. It had two yellow eyes, an orange mohawk on it's head, and a row of sharp teeth in it's mouth.
This octopus wasn't as large as Surume, the Kraken the Straw Hat Pirates met during their adventure in Fish Man Island, but this octopus was still fairly large.



It then began to speak.

"Well, you're the Element holders Tirek told me about. You don't look so special!" it said.

"Oh yeah?" Rainbow Dash said as she took a boxing stance. "We're gonna turn you into sushi!"

"Hah, hardly! The name's Squirk by the way. Tirek promised to flood all of Baltimare so I can turn it into my underwater capital." Squirk said as he launches two tentacles at the pegasus.

Rainbow easily dodges by jumping out of the way. Though she was unable to fly at the moment, she was still fast on her feet.

Squirk also turns his attention to Fluttershy, Applejack, and Chopper.

"HORN POINT!"

Chopper transforms into a bipedal creature with giant antlers, as Squirk throws another tentacle at him.
Chopper rams them away with his antlers before they could reach Fluttershy.

Applejack runs, jumps, and dodges all the Tentacles coming her direction. She then kicks a large rock at the octopus. It hits him directly in his face.

"OWWW! You're gonna pay for that." Squirk yells angrily as he spits a jet of ink out of his mouth at the cowmare. 

Applejack is splattered with the ink, immobilizing her.

"Ah, can't move!"

"That's right, the ink I produce has a paralyzing agent. You won't be moving for five minutes. Not that you'll still be around at that time." He launches another tentacle in her direction, but is intercepted by Rainbow Dash as she kicks it out of the way.

"You forgetting someone?" She taunted.

"Oh, not at all." Squirk said, as he resumes his battle with Rainbow Dash.

He launches three tentacles at Rainbow Dash, and two more at Chopper and Fluttershy. 

"Kung Fu Point!" 

Chopper transforms again into this more agile form, and repels the tentacle heading towards Fluttershy with a kick, while she yelps, and buries her face in her hooves.

Squirk then spits his ink again. This time, Rainbow Dash's hind legs are splattered, and she is unable to move.
Another tentacle simply swats both Rainbow and Applejack, sending them both flying into a tree.

Squirk then converges all his tentacles at Chopper. He was able to punch and kick away at least four of them, but the other four grabs each of his limbs. They then slam Chopper into the ground, as he changes back into his tiny brain point.

He slowly gets back up, dazed, to see that Squirk had grabbed Fluttershy with a tentacle, and began squeezing her.

"And now, I finish this one." He said sadistically, as he squeezes her even harder.

Fluttershy began screaming in pain, unable to bear the pressure that was being applied on her body.

The more she screamed, the tighter Squirk's grip on her got.

"Heavy Point!"

Nothing happens.

"HEAVY POINT!"

Still nothing.

"This isn't good." Chopper thought to himself, "Applejack and Rainbow Dash are both knocked out, Twilight and the others are off somewhere else, and I can't transform. I didn't want to resort to this, but it looks like I have no choice. I have to save Fluttershy!"


He then pulls out a small yellow object from his backpack. It looked like a jawbreaker.

"Rumble Ball!"

Chopper places it into his mouth, and bites down into it.

His body then suddenly begins to grow. His muscles begin to enlarge, and his size increases greatly.
He begins to transform into a giant, and his body takes a shape of a monsterous form, even larger and muscular than his heavy point.

"MONSTER POINT!"

Chopper had transformed into a giant bipedal monster, with long hair, giant antlers, a long snout, and long arms.



Fluttershy, seeing this, gives a scream of terror. Applejack, and Rainbow Dash, coming to, also witness the transformation.

"Holy crab apples!" Applejack said, as Rainbow Dash looked on, with her jaw hanging in surprise.

"What the??!!" Squirk said as he shoots the rest of his tentacles at the monster Chopper.

"LET HER GO!" Chopper demanded in a deep booming voice.

The tentacles wrap Chopper's arms, as he begins to struggle.

Chopper then reaches forward, and slams a giant hoof onto Squirks head. This causes him to lose his hold on Fluttershy as she falls into the lake.

Chopper scoops her out of the water, as she looks up at him, while still in terror. But then she notices his eyes. They were still the same friendly, and warm eyes of the reindeer she loved. Even though, physically, he was now a giant monster, she can tell, he's still the same kind hearted and loving reindeer he's always been. This calms her, and gave her a sense of security.

Chopper puts her down as the other two ponies run up to her, the effects of the paralyzing ink already worn off.

"You alright sugarcube?" Applejack asked.

"What happened to Chopper?" Rainbow added.

"I don't know, but what I do know, is that he's still on our side." She replied, as the three ponies watch the giant reindeer monster fight the giant octopus.

Squirk spews out a jet of ink at Chopper. It hits him, but seems to take no effect.

"That's impossible! Nobody is strong enough to withstand my paralysis ink."

"WELL I'M NOT SOME NORMAL SOMEBODY." Chopper said as he lands another blow on Squirk.

This dazes the octopus, as he goes limp.

Chopper then plucks him out of the lake by his head, and begins to wind his arm up. He then twirls Squirk around and around.

"What are you doing to me?" The octopus demanded.

As if to answer him, Chopper then hurls Squirk, sending him flying off far into the distance. He disappears over the horizon.

Chopper then sees Fluttershy and the others and walks towards them. While Fluttershy is calm, the other two take defensive stances.

"Hey, it's ok. He's still our Chopper." Fluttershy reassures them.

"DON'T WORRY. THIS IS MY MONSTER POINT. IT'S MY STRONGEST FORM. I CAN ONLY HOLD IT FOR THREE MINUTES." He explains.

Hearing that he can still talk, and still his intelligent self, Applejack and Rainbow Dash then relax themselves.

"I TRY NOT TO USE THIS FORM TOO OFTEN. IT HAS A SIDE EFFECT ONCE IT WEARS OFF, WHICH SHOULD BE..... JUST ABOUT NOW." He says as he suddenly begins to shrink. Not long after, he's back into his brain point again.

Fluttershy runs up to him.

"Oh Chopper, you saved me again." Fluttershy said as she picks him up and hugs him. "Umm, what's wrong, you feel, well, limp."

"That's the side effect, I won't be able to transform into any other forms, or even walk for the next couple of hours."

The ponies listen in shock, as they realize their friend is now crippled.

"Oh No!" Fluttershy yelled. "Now what do we do?"

"Well, we gotta keep movin', and meet up with the others." Applejack said as she and Rainbow Dash walk up to the lake and begin to wash the ink residue from their bodies.

"Well, you can ride on my back until you can move again." Fluttershy said to Chopper.

"Thanks, that would be nice." He replied while smiling, and exhausted.

"What was that thing you ate anyway?" Rainbow Dash asked as she shakes herself dry.

"It's a rumble ball. A special drug I created to help my body with it's transformations. Two years ago I could only transform into my walk point, heavy point, and brain point on my own, but any other forms, required the rumble ball. But after my training, I can finally transform without it's help. I now only use the rumble ball to change into my monster point." Chopper explained.

"Uggh, too much egghead mumbo jumbo." Rainbow Dash said while scratching her head. Applejack didn't look like she faired any better.

Fluttershy simply giggled and smiled at the reindeer doctor.

"Well, you're the sweetiest, and most nicest monster I know." She said as she nuzzles him.

"Get a room you love birds!" Rainbow teased, as both Fluttershy and Chopper awkardly blushed at the comment.

They then suddenly hear the sound of galloping coming towards them. From the woods, they see Twilight and the others running in their direction.

"Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Chopper, Fluttershy!" Twilight Sparkle called out, "Are you all alright?"

"We're fine sugarcube. But ya'lls just missed another battle we had with one of them minions that Tirek sent. Why Chopper here turned into a giant monster, and gave that nasty varmint a good ole' fashion whoopin'!" Applejack informed the others.

"A giant monster?" Twilight asked as she looked at Chopper.

"Oh dear, you don't look so good." Rarity said as she places her hoof on Chopper's forehead. "Well, you don't seem to have a temperature. But you look very weak."

"It's a side effect from the form I just took. Let's just leave it at that." He answered.

"He just had a battle and is exhausted." Fluttershy said to the others.

"So he turned into a giant monster? Was he scary, or cool looking?" Pinkie Pie asked as she bounced around.

"Well, he did look scary at first, but I saw his eyes, his kind and caring eyes, and I knew it was still Chopper." Fluttershy explained.

"That sound so cool!" Scootaloo yelled.

"Yeah, can you show us? If you're a giant monster, then we can save Apple Bloom and Spike for sure!" Sweetie Belle added.

"Not now." Chopper flately stated, as the two fillies gave a look of disappointment.

"Hey what's this?" Pinkie asked as she sees a yellow jawbreaker like object on the ground. 

" *gasp* Oh boy! A yellow jawbreaker! I LOVE JAWBREAKERS!" She shouts as she pops it into her mouth.

Chopper gives a look of absolute terror as he watches Pinkie chew the rumble ball.

"PINKIE NO! SPIT THAT OUT! NOW!" He screamed. "That's NOT CANDY! It's a rumble ball, I don't know what the effects are on someone who doesn't have a devil fruit ability!"

But it was too late, Pinkie had already swallowed it.

"MMMM! Tangy! Got any more?" She cheerfully asked.

Pinkie's body then suddenly inflates like a balloon, then returns to it's normal form, then her neck stretched out like a giraffe, but then returns to normal, then her legs twitch, stretch out, shake violently, then return to normal. Her tail and mane then grow extra lengths of hair, then also retract back to normal.

Chopper and the others look on in shock. After a while, nothing else seemed to happen. They all give a sigh of relief.

"That was fun! Anymore of those rumble ball jawbreakers? They're yummy!" Pinkie asked.

"Pinkie Pie.... You are so RANDOM!" Chopper and all the ponies, including the two fillies, say in unison.


Some time later, after some more walking through the forest, they come across a mountain side, where they can see a castle at the top.



"That must be it. Midnight Castle." Twilight said to the others.

"This is it, no turning back now." Rarity said as she swallows hard, and pulls Sweetie Belle closer to her. "You stay close to me at all times from here on out. Got that?"

"Got it sis, now let's go save our friends!" Sweetie Belle replied, with a look of seriousness in her eyes that surprised Rarity.

"You've grown up so quickly Sweetie Belle." Rarity said with a smile to her sister.

"You stay close to me too squirt." Rainbow Dash said to Scootaloo, who saluted her, and gave a look of determination.

"This looks very scary, but I have to do this. For our friends, and for Equestria." Fluttershy said, though nervous, there was a hint of courage in her voice.

"And we're all right here with you." Chopper said, while still riding on her back.

"How are you feeling?" She asked him.

"I can kind of feel my legs again, so hopefully soon, I should be able to walk." He answered her.

"This is it girls, the last leg of our journey. Once we enter that castle, everypony must keep their guard up at all times." Twilight briefed. "This will probably be the hardest battle we ever face. We find the Elements, we free our loved ones, and we'll defeat Tirek."

The ponies and Chopper all give a cheer in approval, as they begin to advance up the mountain toward Midnight Castle.







"Careful now." Scorpan said to Apple Bloom and Spike, as they follow him closely.

The three of them began sneaking around the corridors of Midnight Castle, looking for a way out. But so far, all of the exits have multiple guards patrolling them. Scorpan may be able to take on one, maybe two at a time, but each area had at least five guards, or three stegadons watching.

"How are we gonna get outta here Mr. Scorpan?" Apple Bloom asked with an impatient tone.

"Soon little one, soon, hopefully. Just don't give up hope." Scorpan said to the filly.

"I just hope Twilight and the others get here soon." Spike said as he peeks down a corridor. "Looks like it's clear."

The trio then walk lightly down the hallway. They then see a guard about to walk into their line of sight, when Scorpan orders the dragon and filly to hide. They both duck behind a suit of armor that was in the hall, as Scorpan tackles the guard and knocks him out.

"That was a close one." He says as he drags the unconcious lizard man out of sight into another dark hall.

Apple Bloom and Spike meet back up with him, as they continue down the hall.
But right as they turn the corner, they come face to face with Tirek and Grogar.

"Well Scorpan, I knew this day would come, when you would turn against me. Especially with Spike returning to the picture."

The trio were paralyzed, unable to move due to their shock of being caught.

"I'm gonna turn you into a greasy smear in the floor." Grogar said as he is about to charge at Scorpan, but only to be stopped by Tirek.

"No Grogar, I'll have my guards take them to the throne room. They shall watch my endgame before their own lives are terminated." Tirek said to the ram.

A number of guards then escort the three prisoners back to the throne room of Midnight Castle where Tirek, Grogar, and Bray stand in front of them. They are then chained up.

"One of my stegadon warriors have informed me that the Element holders are approaching the castle. Soon they will be here. It is all going according to my plan." Tirek said.

"Your plan?" Grogar asked. "You mean you wanted them to come? Then why did you send Arabus and Squirk to destroy them?"

"Simple my dear Grogar. Those two buffoons were too ambitious with power. I made an alliance with them to keep them under my watch. I sent them to deal with the ponies because I knew they would lose. It is perhaps the best way of doing away with the competition."

"Hmph, like you'll do away with me, once this is over... Oh no, you'll not best me Tirek." Grogar thought to himself silently.

"Ya mean, Mah sis and the others are almost here?" Apple Bloom asked.

"That is correct little one. And once they arrive, my endgame shall begin." Tirek said as he cackles at the filly.

"That also means your friends are being led into a trap!" Scorpan said to the two youngsters.

"I gotta find a way to warn Twilight!" Spike said.

"Your futile attempts only amuse me even further." Tirek said as he walks up to Celestia's stone form.

"Soon Celestia, your precious Twilight Sparkle will be joining you in oblivion. And I shall rule over all!"

Tirek gives an evil long laugh, as Spike, Scorpan, and Apple Bloom look on with terror, and concern for their friends.



> Infiltration; Rescue from Midnight Castle begins!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Tony Tony Chopper finds himself in the land of Equestria; where it is populated not by humans, but talking ponies. Equestria is under attack by the dark demon Tirek. Chopper and his pony friends are on a quest to recover the Elements of Harmony, and rescue their captured friends and family.



Chopper, the Mane 6, and the two Cutie Mark Crusaders have trekked up the mountain side and are now in front of the front gates of Midnight Castle. So far things have been quiet. Too quiet for their liking. As they stand in front of the castle gates, they realize, the portcullis has been raised, and no guards were in sight.

"Must be our lucky day," Rainbow Dash yelled "Let's do this!"

As she was about to sprint foward, Twilight Sparkle used her magic to pull on Rainbow's tail, forcing her to stay in place.

"That's too easy." She said to the blue pegasus, "I don't like this one bit. If I didn't know any better, it's like they WANT us to enter."

"It must be a trap. They're probably expecting us." Chopper said weakly, still exhausted from his earlier encounter with Squirk, and using his monster point.

The ponies all look at each other.

"So, what do we do?" Pinkie Pie asked, "I mean, we can't NOT go in right?"

"True," Rarity answered, "But we'll just have to keep an extra eye out."

"Everypony stay close!" Rarity called. "That means you two as well." She said as she was pointing to Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.

"Alright, let's all go in together." Twilight instructed, as all the ponies, with Chopper still riding on Fluttershy's back, slowly walk into the front gate, and begin to enter the castle.


The interior of the castle was dark, and cold. The ponies, and Chopper all had a sense of foreboding, as if they were being watched.

"This place is creepier than Thriller Bark." Chopper said, as he trembles.

Fluttershy could feel him shivering, and gently nuzzled him, but she herself was terrified. But she had to put on a brave face, for him, and for the others. She wanted so badly to turn around, and lock herself in her cottage. But this wasn't an option. The others needed her, Chopper needed her. His presence has actually given her a new drive, and newfound courage to push forward. She hadn't felt this strongly about herself since her assertive lessons from Iron Will, or the time she had to help the other pegasi create a tornado to pull water up to Cloudsdale. But this time, she felt more confident than before. Love works in mysterious ways.

She wanted to be there for him, and help protect him. Chopper had already saved her life, and she strongly wanted to repay him for his heroic actions.

"How's about some light sugarcube?" Applejack asked the purple unicorn in a nervous tone.

Even the usual fearless cowmare had her nerves shaken by the dark castle walls.

Twilight lit up her horn like a flash light. Rarity decided to do the same.

"I...I'm not scared....um... no, Not at all..." Scootaloo tensely said, her fear getting to her.

"Don't worry kiddo, I'm right here with ya." Rainbow Dash comfortly said to the young pegasus.

Sweetie Belle inched closer to Rarity. The older unicorn did her best to ease her little sister's fear.

"Don't worry darling, I won't let anything happen to you." She said to the unicorn filly.

Even Pinkie Pie began to feel slightly uneasy, though she still had a slight grin on her face. A nervous one.

"How about a song to get rid of all this doom and gloom? So Giggle at the..."

"Not now Pinkie," Twilight said, "We need to keep quiet. Stay covert."

Pinkie gave a disappointed sigh.

"Oh, alright..." She said dejected.

Something then catches Applejack's eye, it looked like a small red hair ribbon.

"APPLE BLOOM!" Applejack yelled as she ran and picked up the ribbon from the ground.

"AH SWEAR! If anythin's happened to mah sister, That Tirek varmint's gonna pay TEN FOLD!" She angrily yelled. Her fear, now replaced with burning rage.

In a fit of uncontrollable anger, Applejack runs off on her own.

"AJ! Get back here!" Twilight Sparkle yelled at the cowmare, but she had already disappeared from sight.

"Let me try to find her with my Pinkie Sense." Pinkie Pie said, as she tried to focus.

"Hmm, floppy ears, twitchy tail, and twitchy eyelids.... She went that way!" Pinkie pointed.

The ponies then follow Pinkie's direction towards another large and even darker room.

As they enter, suddenly, a large metal door cuts off the area they were just in.

"I knew it! It was a trap." Twilight yelled.

"If I didn't know any better, I think we're being led somewhere." Chopper added.

"You really think so?" Fluttershy asked.

"Call it a gut instinct. Something I learned from Zoro and Sanji." Chopper answered.

"Well, we still have to find Applejack." Rarity complained, "I swear, she's too impulsive and hardheaded for her own good."






Applejack galloped further down the dark corridor, still searching for her lost sister. She then realized she had seperated herself from the other.

"DANGNABIT!" She cursed to herself, "There ya go again. Bein' thickskulled as ever. Ah Can't believe Ah let mahself get all worked up for nuthin."

She began to turn around to see if she can meet up with the others, but by now, the maze like halls of the castle had caused her to lose her way. She was lost.

"A fine mess Ah got myself into..." She muttered. "But Ah still gotta find Apple Bloom!"

She then heard what sounded like footsteps coming from behind her.

"Ah hope that's you Twilight." She said as she turned around.

It was pitch black, she couldn't see anything, but she felt what was like a net ensnare her. She fought to try to break free, but a smashing blow she felt on her head stopped that as she slipped into unconciousness.






The others continue to walk down the corridor. They see that all other doors are either locked, or chained. They were all definately being led somewhere. Although Chopper didn't like the fact that he and the others were being obviously led into a trap, he knew they had no choice but to venture forward if they were to have any hope to end all of this madness.

He then realized he could move his legs. He dismounts Fluttershy.

"I think I can walk again." he said, as he wobbles a bit as he stands.

"Are you sure? You still look tired. Do you need me to hold you up?" Fluttershy asked.

"I'll be fine. Thanks." He answered, "I can feel my powers returning... Let's see... WALK POINT!"

Chopper then turns into his full reindeer form. But he couldn't hold if for long, and reverts back to his brain point.

"Guess I'm not fully recovered yet." He said.

"Well, at least you can walk." Fluttershy said to him as she looks at him with worry. "Just be careful."


Soon, they reach the end of the long corridor, and see a large door. There appeared to be no locks, chains, or anything. The only thing it had, was a menacing looking horned head at the top of the door. It gave everyone there a feeling of great unease. The two fillies simply ducked behind Rarity and Rainbow Dash. Too scared to even make a sound.

"Alright, this is it everypony." Twilight Sparkle said with determination. "Get ready."

She pushes on the door, and it starts to creak open. All of the ponies, though Fluttershy, and the two fillies, very relucantly had to be pushed by Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie, entered the room with Chopper right behind them.

As the last of the group enter, the door slams shut. They can then hear what sounded like a deadbolt lock the door.

One thing's for certain, they won't be leaving in that direction. They then see their surroundings. It appears to be a throne room of sorts.

"Welcome holders of the Elements of Harmony." A voice said from the darkness. It was Tirek. "I have been expecting you."

"Tirek!" Twilight fumed.

"Indeed my little pony." Tirek responded, as he approaches the group. "Now that you all are here, my endgame can begin."

He snaps his fingers, and all the torches in the room ignite, lighting up the place.

What the ponies see next, shock them. 

Next to Tirek, were Apple Bloom, Scorpan, and Spike. They were chained, and on the other side was Applejack, also in chains. In front of the throne, was a chariot, with five giant dragon like monsters with wings and tusks. The ponies then realize something strange about those dragons. They had cutie marks.

Grogar and Bray were also standing next to Tirek, with evil smirks on their faces.

Behind the throne, were the statues of The three Alicorn Princesses, and Shining Armor.


"No, it can't be!" Rainbow Dash said in disbelief as she sees a bubble cutie mark on one of the dragons. "DERPY?!"

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO THEM?!" Twilight Sparkle demanded. "Princesses, Big Bro."

Twilight could feel tears forming in her eyes as she sees her brother petrified in stone.

"They are to pull my Dark Chariot. Once it is airborne, it will intensify my Rainbow of Darkness. I will use it to conquer the rest of Equestria."

"You MONSTER! How could you??!!" Rarity fumed at the centaur.

"You turned my friends into meanies!" Pinkie Pie scolded.

"Apple Bloom! Ah'm glad you're ok. Don't you worry, Ah'll find a way to get you outta this." Applejack said to her sister.

But then she notices something on one of the dragons. A cutie mark she was all too familiar with. 

"Big Macintosh??!!" She said in horror.

She had now realized the gravity of the situation. Her own brother had been turned into a monster. Applejack couldn't hold in her anger, and sorrow. She began glaring at Tirek, with tearful, yet blazing eyes.

"I'm gonna make ya PAY. For what you did to Mah BROTHER!"

Applejack began to struggle with all her might to break the chains, but they were too strong for her. 

"BIG MACINTOSH!" She called out to the dragon, "AH know you can here me! Don't let that stinkin' Polecat control you. Ya ain't no monster!"

The dragon merely grunted and roared.

"He cannot here you. He has lost all reason, and only obeys ME!" Tirek said to Applejack, "And soon, you will join him. The trap, was to capture you, and one more of your group. To transform you into the final two that will pull my chariot."

"No..... NO!" Applejack yelled in defiance.

At this point, Scorpan couldn't stand it anymore. He had committed terrible acts in Tirek's name, he helped capture and kidnap ponies for his master's dark purpose, and even endangered Spike, a dragon who he swore to watch over. Now was his chance to redeem himself. 

With all of his might, using his gargoyle strength, combined with his rage, managed to break the chains binding his arms. He then breaks the chains holding Apple Bloom, and Spike.

He then rushes at Tirek, attempting to fight him with his bare hands, but was easily overpowred, and swatted aside by the centaur. All the while, Grogar and Bray watched with glee.

"You fool. Did you really think you were a match for me?" Tirek taunted.

"I will do whatever I can to stop you!" Scorpan yelled as he gets back onto his feet.

Twilight and the others watched in confusion. "Wasn't that creature on of his minions? Why is he attacking Tirek? What happened that turned him against his master?" Twilight thought.

Spike immediately ran over to Applejack, and tried whatever he could do to free her. 

"If I only had the keys." He said while trying to claw at the chains.

Tirek then uses his scepter to swat Scorpan away, and turns his attention to Applejack and Spike.

"Behold the power of the Rainbow of Darkness!" He said, as he opens the pulsating satchel.

The Dark Rainbow then shoots out towards Applejack and Spike.

"Spike, GET OUTTA HERE NOW!" Applejack demanded.

"No, I'm not leaving you behind." He retorted back.

At this point, it was too late. The Rainbow of Darkness had already enveloped the two.



It looked like both Spike and Applejack had caught on fire, as if they were being burned alive. Then their forms began to chainge. Soon they too had been transformed into giant winged dragons with elephant tusks.

"NOOOOOOO!" Apple Bloom shrieked. "APPLEJACK!"

The others couldn't believe what they saw. Twilight Sparkle's eyes were fixated on the creatures that were once Spike and Applejack. Her blood ran cold, her stomach in knots, and her eyes now running with tears.

Her two best friends have been turned into monsters.

"YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THIS!" Twilight had never been so devastated, or angry in her entire life. Her heart felt like it was ripped in two.

The other ponies, and Chopper couldn't believe what they saw either. They had just witnessed one of the most honest and loyal ponies, turned into a monster to serve a great evil. And Spike, the once friendly little dragon who worked his way into their hearts, has now been turned into a heartless beast.

"I'm gonna make them pay for what they did to AJ, Spike, AND THE OTHERS!" Rainbow Dash said as she zoomed towards Tirek.

He fired a bolt from his scepter that knocked Rainbow Dash back. Rarity and Twilight charged at him. Only for him to teleport out of the way with his dark magic. He reappeared on the other side of the hall, and pulled a lever.

Once he did, the ground in front of the throne began to slide away. Beneath, was a lava pit.

Several of Tirek's lizardmen guards then harness the recently transformed Applejack, and Spike onto the chariot, along with the other transformed ponies. Tirek now had the seven he needed to pull his chariot.

"Now." He said as he boarded, "I am off to Ponyville, to unleash my full power. Soon, I willl build an army to take Canterlot, and then, the entire world! Even the Human World Government and their Marines, and the Four Pirate Emperors, will tremble before my might. Grogar, Bray, will you join me?"

"Very well." Grogar said, as he and Bray also hop onto the chariot.

"No, he's getting away!" Rainbow Dash said, as she gets back on her feet.

Tirek then cracks a whip, making the seven dragons fly into the air. The chariot then flies out of a window, and heads towards Ponyville.



"I leave them to you, LAVAN!" Tirek calls back as he disappears off in the distance.

The lava pit then begins to stir, and something emerges. It was a humanoid creature, seemingly made from lava.



It climbs out of the pit, and began to advance towards the ponies, and Chopper.

At this point, Chopper can feel all of this strength return to him.

"Heavy Point!"

He turns into his human form, and prepares to do battle.

Scorpan then regains conciousness, only to see Lavan emerge, and advance towards the ponies.

"Look out, that's Lavan, he's a lava demon! Don't let him touch you, or it's all over!" He yelled to the others.

"Fools." Lavan said, "Ever since Tirek helped me escape from Tartarus, I have been promised Manehatten would be my new firery domain."

"I got this!" Rainbow Dash said, as she began to fly circles around Lavan. She was trying to create a wind tunnel to cool him down.

But Lavan then swats at Rainbow Dash. She was barely able to dodge, as droplets of lava singe her wings.

She lands and began to blow on her feathers, which were lightly scorched.

"You don't stand a chance. None of you can even touch me." Lavan gloated.

Chopper picks up a shield from the wall, and uses it to ram Lavan against the wall. It wasn't long before the shield melted, and Chopper had to retreat.

"This isn't good." Chopper said to himself, "We can't physically hit this guy. I can't use Haki, and there's no water around."

Rarity, using her horn, began levitating random objects around the room, from shields, to spears, to arrows, and began hurling them at Lavan. Pinkie Pie also hurled random objects at the lava demon. Only for the objects to be burned and melted as they made contact. Twilight fired several bolts of magic. These too were absorbed harmlessly into Lavan's body.

"Twilight, maybe a wind spell!" Chopper called to her.

"Good thinking!" She replied, as she conjured up a wind.

It began blowing Lavan, and it seemed to be working as he looked like he was being cooled down slightly, until he threw a glob of lava at Twilight. The glob engulfs the purple unicorn, as the others watch in horror.

"TWILIGHT NO!" All the ponies yell in unison.

But the glob of lava seemed to slide off harmlessly. Twilight had used a force field to protect herself.

"That was close!" She said.

They all breathe a sigh of relief.

"But we're still nowhere close to beating this guy." Chopper said, as he turns into his walk point reindeer form to out run the globs of lava that Lavan was throwing at him.

Lavan then sees the three cutie mark crusaders, and advances towards them.

The three fillies, terrified, began backing away from him. They then realize they couldn't back any further, because they were now on the edge of the lava pit.

"Now then," Lavan said to the fillies, "Would you like to jump in? Or would you have me push you in?"

"You....... You leave them alone." Fluttershy stuttered.

Lavan began to laugh.

"Or what?" he demanded.

"I said...... LEAVE THEM ALONE!" Fluttershy yelled, now her eyes furrowed, her wings spread, and a strong aura surronded her.

"It's, THE STARE!" Pinkie Pie said as she smiled.

"Whoa now, what's with you all of a sudden?" Lavan asked, now surprised.

"YOU WILL NOT HURT ANYPONY!" Fluttershy demanded.

Lavan, now suddenly feeling chills to his body, began backing away from Fluttershy, as the cutie mark crusaders run around him, and back to Twilight and the others.

"Why? Why am I getting these chills?" He asked. "It doesn't make sense!"

"JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE A MONSTER MADE OF LAVA DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN BE A BULLY! YOU DO NOT, I REPEAT, YOU DO NOT HURT MY FRIENDS!"

Lavan began backing up more, now terrified at Fluttershy's rage. 

"No please, Don't hurt me, I give up, I GIVE UP!" He begged.

Lavan continued to back up, until he was at the edge of the lava pit. He takes another step back, loses his footing, and falls back into the pit. Twilight seeing this, quickly runs over to the lever, and flips it. The stone floor then begins to close.

"No, NO! Let me back out! You can't leave me here! NO!" Lavan yelled as the floor closes on top of him.

Chopper couldn't believe what he saw. Fluttershy defeated Lavan with a stare. He then put two and two together after he remembered Luffy doing something similar. It then hit him that Fluttershy was one of the few born with King's Haki!

Fluttershy had returned to her normal timid self, as the others run up to her.

"Nice job Flutters! I knew you could pull through for us!" Rainbow Dash said as she pats her on the back.

"Yeah, The Stare always wins!" Pinkie Pie beamed.

"Fluttershy, I never expected you to have the rarest, and one of the most powerful forms of Haki. That was King's Haki!" Chopper said.

The others looked at him in confusion, though Twilight seemed to give him more of a look of interest at what he just said.

"Um, explain?" Twilight said to the reindeer.


"King's Haki is a rare form of Haki that cannot be attained through training and only one in a million people carry it. This type of Haki grants the user the ability to dominate the wills of others. The most common usage so far is intimidating those with weak wills, or knocking them unconcious. Whilst inexperienced users are restricted to merely overpowering the will of one individual or blindly knocking out weak-willed people around them, those with more expertise can pick out weak-willed individuals in a large group and knock them out without affecting those around them. However, those with stronger wills can resist or even ignore the effects of King's Haki.
While this type of Haki cannot be attained through training, it can be improved through training, as it grows as the user's spirit grows. The ability to knock someone out depends on the difference in strength between the person using Haki and the person or persons the user is trying to knock out. The greater the power gap, the easier it is to knock the victim out. It seems that upon recovery, victims of King's Haki experience the sensation of chills running through their body. However, it presumably wears off after a short period."

Chopper finishes his explaination, while Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie scratch their heads in confusion.

"Wow, who knew our little sweet Fluttershy held such an incredible power!" Rarity said.

Hearing this gave the cutie mark crusaders a newfound respect for Fluttershy.

"So only those born with this ability can use it? Interesting." Twilight said with fascination. "You must be destined for great things Fluttershy."

"Oh, no, I'm just me. Nothing special. I mainly use it to keep my animals in line, and to protect others from big bullies." Fluttershy answered.

"It's good to know you have this power to help us." Chopper said, "because you ARE Special."

Hearing Chopper say this to her, made Fluttershy blush. She then picks up the little reindeer and hugs him tightly. Chopper himself also began to blush.

"Enough of this lovey dovey stuff!" Rainbow Dash yelled. "How are we gonna stop Tirek now that he's flying to Ponyville? He's gonna tear our home apart!"

"Allow me to answer that." Scorpan said as he stepped up. Everyone seemed to have forgotten about him.

The ponies all take defensive stances as he approaches them.

"NO STOP!" Apple Bloom yelled as she runs up to Scorpan, "He's on our side. He helped me and Spike to escape."

The ponies look at Scorpan, still unsure about him.

"I know I committed may atrocities, but I only wish for redemption. Please let me help you. Tirek is mad with power, and he'll turn everything he touches into a fiery waste. I don't wish for that to happen. Please allow me to assist. I want to repent for all the sins I have done. And I wish to return Spike, and your friends back to normal." Scorpan pleaded, on his knees to Twilight and the others.

"I don't know.... he was the one after all that kidnapped all the ponies from before." Rainbow Dash said.

"Well, he was nice to Apple Bloom." Sweetie Belle chimed in. "maybe he'll be nice to us too if we're nice to him."

"I think everypony deserves a second chance to have friends!" Pinkie Pie cheerfully chimed in.

"Well, not that I trust this brute, but we do need all the help we can get." Rarity added.

"Very well. I'll accept your help Scorpan." Twilight said, though uneasily. She still didn't trust him.

"And what's your deal with Spike?" Twilight asked him.

"I believe that's something you should talk to him about. It isn't my place to say." Scorpan answered.

"Fair enough" She replied.

Twilight then walks up to the statues of Princess Celestia, Luna, Cadence, and Shining Armor.

"I'll find a way to restore all of you to your former selves. I promise!" She said to them. "And I'll find a way to save Applejack and Spike, and any other pony that's been turned into his monsters."

She then bows to the statues, and returns to the others.

Scorpan then leads the ponies and Chopper to a back room. There was another chariot, and a jeweled box.
Scorpan then opens the box, revealing the Elements of Harmony.

"I believe these belong to you." He said as he presents them to Twilight.

"The Elements! We have them again!" Rarity said excitedly.

"But we don't have everypony with us. Applejack......" Fluttershy said sadly.

"How are we gonna use them if we don't have all of us together?" Pinkie asked.

Everyone then sits and ponders about their situation.

"Well, I have an idea." Sweetie Belle said. "How about Apple Bloom? Can't she use Applejack's element? I mean, she IS her sister after all."

The others look at the filly.

"Oh Sweetie Belle, I appreciate your concern, but Just because Apple Bloom is her sister, doesn't mean she can use her element." Rarity said.

"I don't know, it actually sounds like a good idea." Scootaloo said.

"Yeah, she's like a mini Applejack! I mean, she's pretty honest like her big sister!" Pinkie said.

"Well, we don't have any other options. So we'll have to try it." Twilight said, as she gives the element of honesty to Apple Bloom.

Each of the ponies put on their respected element, while Chopper, Scorpan, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle watch.

"Ah Won't let y'alls down!" Apple Bloom said. "For Applejack, Big Macintosh, and Miss Cheerilee!"

"I know you'll do your best." Twilight reassured her.

Apple Bloom smiled.

Chopper stared at Fluttershy as she wore her element necklace. He already knew she was pretty cute, but her wearing the jeweled element made her look more beautiful than before. He couldn't help but blush intently as she wore element proudly.
Fluttershy notices that he was looking intently at her. She immediately hid her face under her long pink mane out of bashfulness. Chopper came back to his senses, and tried to assess the situation.

"So now what?" He asked Scorpan.

"This chariot will take us back to Ponyville." He then points to Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash. "I'll need the two of you to help me pull it. Hopefully we'll make it in time."

He then puts the harnesses on Dash and Fluttershy, and one on himself, as the others board the chariot.

"Alright, are you all ready? It's time to fly!" Scorpan said, as he began to flap his wings. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash also do the same.

The chariot then lifts of the ground, and flies out of the window of Castle Midnight.

"This is it girls! It's now or never!" Twilight said to the others.

"What an adventure." Chopper said, "I can't wait to tell Luffy and the others all about it."

But then he realizes something, once this is over, he'll have to leave. A sadness then swept over him, as he looks at Fluttershy intently. He'll have to say goodbye to her. But at least he'll know she will be safe, and that she can go on with her life in peace. Now more than ever, Chopper is determined to stop Tirek, here and now. For the ponies, for the new friends he made, and For Fluttershy! Chopper can no longer deny it, he had developed strong feelings for the timid yellow pegasus. Even if it meant saying goodbye, the thought of her having a peaceful life brought a smile to his face.

"Let's do this." He said to himself, as they fly towards Ponyville.






> Ponyville battle; Grogar and Tambelon strike!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Tony Tony Chopper finds himself in the land of Equestria; where it is populated not by humans, but talking ponies. Equestria is under attack by the dark demon Tirek. Chopper and his pony friends have reclaimed the Elements of Harmony, and are preparing the confrontation with the villain.




As Scorpan, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash pull the chariot through the sky, they begin to see Ponyville in the horizon.
They see large pillars of black smoke billowing from the town, as well as a number of fires burning. As they get closer, they see the entire town in turmoil. Many of the settlements have been burned, while Tirek's troops attack the fleeing ponies. Some were being chased, others being captured by nets and ropes, while a few tried to fight back in vain. What was left of the Royal Guard lay beaten, it was utter chaos.

"This is terrible! We have to stop this here and now!" Twilight Sparkle said to the others as her horn begins to glow.

"On it!" Rainbow Dash shouted as she and the other fliers swoop down and land in the town square. 

They can also see Tirek, with his Dark Chariot flying through the air, unleashing his Rainbow of Darkness upon several crowds of ponies, transforming them into his monsterous soldiers.



"So that' where all those ruffians came from. They were once ponies." Rarity said, in a shocked revelation.

"That means we can't injure them too badly." Twilight explained as she and the others readied for battle.

"Yes, that is true. We can knock them out, but do whatever you can to spare their lives." Scorpan said as he picks up a stray spear on the ground, breaks off the blade, and wields it like a staff. "We must use non-lethal force."

"Easy enough. HEAVY POINT!" Chopper yells, as he transforms into his full human form.

"You girls stay out of sight until your Auntie Pinkie and her friends take care of the bad guys, alrighty?" Pinkie said to the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

"I'll call for you Apple Bloom, when it's time to use the Elements." Twilight Sparkle said to the yellow filly.

"Let's kick some butt!" Rainbow Dash yelled, as she was the first to fly into the fray, knocking down several of the attackers.

The rest of the Element holders, Chopper, and Scorpan charge in after her, as they begin to do battle.

"Well I'm not just gonna hide here and do nothing, I'm getting my scooter!" Scootaloo said, as she and Sweetie Belle run off towards their club house.

"Wait fer me!" Apple Bloom yelled as she chases after them.

"CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS, PONYVILLE SAVIORS ARE GO!" The three fillies yell in unison as they run off the the club house.

Rarity levitates a number of blunt objects around her, and began hurling them at the flying stegadons as they swoop at her. Only for them to be knocked out of the air by the flying debris.
Pinkie Pie began bouncing around at random, she then suddenly appears on the shoulders of the lizard troops, then behind them, then above their heads seemingly out of nowhere, confusing the attackers. She then pulls some pies out of no where, and smashes them into their faces, stunning them. Chopper then runs up, and finishes them off by delivering a number of powerful punches.
Scorpan and Twilight are standing back to back, as he swings his staff, engaging a lizard trooper's spear, while Twilight fires her horn, knocking out several attackers, but some of her bolts bounce off a shield a trooper was carrying.

"This madness ends now!" Scorpan yelled as he lunges forward and tackles the lizardman to the ground.

He then turns around to see a lizardman about to strike the purple unicorn with a mace.

"LOOK OUT!" Scorpan yells as he throws the staff at the attacker, knocking him down.

"Thanks, I guess you really are on our side after all." Twilight said to the gargoyle, with geniuine thankfulness.

As Fluttershy flies through the air, two stegadons give chase. She isn't the strongest flier, as they began to catch up to her. She shrieks in terror, just as they are about to reach her, when suddenly, a barrel flies at one of them, slamming into one of the pursuers, and causing it to crash into the other.

She looks down to see that Chopper had hurled it to save her. She flies down to his level, as Chopper turns into his Walk Point full reindeer form.

"Oh Chopper, thank you so much." She said happily, as she throws her forelegs around him in a hug. "You're my Hero!"

Chopper simply smiled, and began doing his happy dance, this time in his reindeer form, which looked rather awkward, despite the situation they were in.

"Hero? Saying nice things to me won't make me happy, idiot." He muttered, only for Fluttershy to giggle at him as she finds these moments to be very amusing, and adorable.

Chopper then gets back to his senses when he sees Tirek's chariot fly over them.

Tirek waves his scepter as the ground around Ponyville Square begins to shake. Then a structure began to seemingly appear out of thin air. It was a giant, menacing looking Castle, though not as menacing as Midnight Castle.

"There you are Grogar, I have restored Castle Tambelon to the heart of Ponyville." Tirek said to the ram.

"Finally, after all these centuries, Tambelon has reclaimed it's rightful place." Grogar sneered.

Tirek then pilots the chariot closer to ground level, allowing Grogar, and his donkey minion Bray, to jump off.

"At last, I will rule this town as my own" Grogar said.

"Indeed, master," Bray said, "What are your orders?"

"Assemble my troops trapped inside the castle, they will enjoy walking on Equestrian soil once again. Soon, I will claim the Rainbow of Darkness for myself and overthrow Tirek." Grogar proclaimed. "Nothing will stop us. Ponyville is MINE!"

"I don't think so." A voice said, as Grogar turned to see who had made that statement.

It was Chopper, with Fluttershy next to him. Chopper shot out some steam from his nostrils, and lowered his head in a fight stance.

"So you would challange me?" Grogar stated to the reindeer. "You are no match against my power. Bray, rally my minions!"

Bray then runs into the castle, and after a few minutes returns with a number of bi-pedal short goblin like creatures wielding spears, swords, and other weapons as they swarm out of the castle door. 

"It feels good to be let out again." one of the creatures said.

"My Troggles, attack!" Grogar commanded his forces.

"Great, more monsters to fight." Chopper said, as he plows his antlers through the crowd of troggles.

Rainbow Dash also notices this new threat, and jumps in to join the battle.

"As if we didn't have enough to deal with already!" She complained, as she engages the new enemy.

"Capture the Ponies!" Bray yells out, as he himself runs into the fray, only for him to be butted hard by Chopper, sending him flying into another group of troggles, and knocking them down.

"Bray, you incompetent idiot!" Grogar yelled, as he and Chopper charge towards each other. 

Ram horns, and deer antlers then clash in a massive collision. The two begin pushing each other with their horns. 

"Surrender reindeer, I am the superior being!" Grogar hissed.

"I won't let my friends down!" Chopper said.

"Suit yourself, your end will be most painful." Grogar said as he breaks the horn lock and jumps backward.

He then began firing bolts of energy from his horns, as Chopper transforms into his Kung Fu point to increase his agility to dodge the blasts.

Grogar then sets his sights on Fluttershy, and began shooting at her instead.

Chopper seeing this, instantly ran over to hear, and changed again.

"GUARD POINT!"

Chopper then transforms into a giant ball of what seemed like fluff in front of Fluttershy, as Grogar's blasts bounce off of hims harmlessly.

"Chopper?" Fluttershy meekishly asked.

"I WON'T let you hurt her." Chopper angrily yelled at the ram. "HORN POINT!"

Chopper transforms again, and charges at Grogar. The ram this time, jumps out of the way, and fires another volley of bolts, this time, hitting Chopper in the back. He falls to the ground, and turns back into his brain point.

"Chopper No!" Fluttershy screamed. 

Suddenly Fluttershy enters into an assertive stance, as her eyes become furrowed, and her wingspan widens. She was back into her Stare Mode.

Using her Haki Ability she yells at Grogar.

"BACK OFF YOU CREEP! You will Not, I repeat, you will NOT HURT HIM!" Fluttershy glared.

Grogar seeing this, only scoffed, then laughed.

"And what are you going to do about it, Cry?" Grogar taunted the pegasus.

Fluttershy immediately returned to her scared self seeing that the stare didn't work.

"Fluttershy, your Haki won't work on him, his willpower is too strong." Chopper managed to yell out, still winded from the blast he recieved.

Grogar began to advance towards Fluttershy, with a number of hit troggles behind him, when what appeared to be party confetti tangled up a number of his troops. Fluttershy turned around just to see the rest of her friends, along with Scorpan standing ready. Pinkie Pie had fired her party cannon at the troggles.

"You're here!" Fluttershy said in relief.

"Always my dear," Rarity said, "We never turn our back on a friend."

"Troggles attack!" Grogar yelled, as the troggles began advancing towards the ponies.

Twilight Sparkle fires a bolt at the troggles, only for the bolt to again, bounce off a shield one of the troggles was carrying, but the blast was sent flying into a bell, at the top of the castle. The bell then cracked a bit, and the castle rumbled.

"What was that?" Scorpan asked, puzzled.

"No, the bell...." Grogar said.

"What about that bell?" Twilight asked.

"None of your concern!" Grogar shot back, as he fired a bolt at Twilight, only for her to erect a force field, making Grogar's shot deflect, and also sent flying into the bell again. The bell cracked even more, and the castle began to rumble again. Then it looked like it began to fade. Castle Tambelon began to look slightly transparent.

Scorpan began engaging the troggles, along with Rarity, as she kicks and punches at them with her martial arts skills.

Twilight then put two and two together.

"THAT'S IT! Everypony listen up, we have to destroy that Bell at the top of the castle. It will send it back to where ever it came from." She instructed the others.

"Got it Egghead!" Rainbow Dash said, as she make a mad zoom towards the bell.

Grogar fires at her, but she was too fast and dodged all of his blasts. Rainbow Dash then rams into the bell, causing it to crack more, and the castle to fade again.

"You will all pay for this. Bray, you moron, make yourself useful, and stop them!" Grogar ordered.

Bray gets back onto his feet, and charges at the ponies, only for Pinkie Pie to pull out a small sack, and unload it's contents on the ground. Marbles. Bray then slips, and slams right into his master.

"I SWEAR YOU'RE USELESS!" Grogar yelled at the donkey, as he kicks him off, and charges at the ponies.

Chopper then turns into his horn point again, and intercepts Grogar by clashing horns again.

This time, Chopper's force was so strong, it sent Grogar flying backwards, slamming into Bray, and the rest of the Troggles, who had foolishly stood in a straight line while charging at the ponies. They are all sent flying into the castle door.

Grogar slowly gets back up, as he realized he's inside his castle.

"Now! Give it all you got!" Chopper yelled at the others.

Rainbow Dash kicks the bell again, this time, it breaks in half, and Twilight fires a bolt at the rest of the bell. Shattering it.

The castle then begins to disappear, with Grogar and his minions trapped inside.

"NOOOOO! I REFUSE TO RETURN TO TARTARUS!" he yelled, but seconds later, the castle completely disappears, taking him, Bray, and his troggles with it.

"That's one down." Scorpan said, "now we must deal with Tirek."

"Let's get the Elements ready." Twilight Sparkle said, "Apple Bloom, we need you now."

As if on cue, The Cutie Mark Crusaders return, this time with Scootaloo, riding her scooter, with a rope attached to the back pulling a wagon, with Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom riding in it. Scootaloo, flapping her wings with all her might, sent her scooter zooming past the lizard troops, as they tried to give chase, but she was too fast for them.

"Over here!" Rainbow Dash yelled as Scootaloo changes direction to head towards them.

"I'll cover them!" Pinkie Pie said, as she aimed her cannon at the pursuing troops, and fired. Pies flew out of the cannon, and hit the lizard troops in their faces, stunning them enough for Scorpan to fly over knock them all out with his staff.

As soon as the filles meet up with the rest, they see Tirek's chariot fly overhead.

"I see you defeated Grogar." Tirek sneered, "as I expected."

He then aim his scepter at the ponies, and fires a bolt of lightning, as the ponies, Chopper, and Scorpan jump to dodge. But Scorpan wasn't fast enough, and was struck.

"Scorpan!" Twilight Sparkle yelled, as she ran up to see if he was ok.

Chopper immediately gave him a check up.

"Looks like he's just knocked out. His tough skin was able to withstand the blast without too much injury." Chopper said as he gave him an examination. "He'll be out for a while. It's only us now."

"Then we'll have to give all we have." Fluttershy said, surprisingly confident.

"I know you can do it." Chopper reassured her.

"And we believe in you too Apple Bloom." Sweetie Belle said to her friend, as Scootaloo nodded in agreement.

"Alright Girls, let's do this." Twilight said, as the ponies prepared the Elements of Harmony.

Twilight Sparkle put on her tiara, as the rest of the ponies put on their necklaces, including Apple Bloom who is now wearing Applejack's Element.

The elements then seemingly, began to glow, reacting to each other, and to the ponies wearing them. Chopper could only look on in awe.

As Tirek's chariot began to swoop down towards them, as she charges his scepter for another blast, a large rainbow like beam emerges from the six ponies, as their eyes light up. As the rainbow was about to hit Tirek, it suddenly disappears.

The ponies, unsure what happened, are then pushed out of the way by Chopper as he turns into his heavy point. Right as a bolt of lightning strikes the spot where they were in.

"It... It didn't work." Apple Bloom said, sadly. "Ah knew Ah couldn't do it."

"No, it isn't your fault Apple Bloom, you tried, we all did." Twilight said as she looked at the filly with caring eyes.

"But Ah messed it up. Ah ain't Applejack." she said with tears in her eyes. "Now we'll never save mah family and Spike."

"This isn't your fault dear." Rarity said as she put a hoof on Apple Bloom's shoulder. "We'll have to find another way to beat him."

"Yeah, the good ole' fashioned way." Rainbow Dash said, "By kicking his flank black and blue!"

"I admit, you almost had me there. Too bad you don't have your precious Element of Honesty anymore, my dear Twilight Sparkle." Tirek taunted as the chariot hovered in mid air. 

He then opened up the satchel to release the Rainbow of Darkness, when Chopper then transformed into a bi-pedal form the ponies never seen before. He was similar to his human form, but his horns were still visible, and his snout was like that of a reindeer, rather than a human's, and his legs were extremely muscular.

"JUMPING POINT!"

Chopper jumps, launching himself high into the air, and grabs onto one of the wheels of the Chariot, and climbs aboard.

"So you wish to challenge me in my own element?" Tirek jeered as he and Chopper glare at each other.

Chopper then transforms into his heavy point, and begins to throw punches at the centaur.

Tirek was able to dodge and parry his attacks easily, as the chariot soars high into the air.

"I.... I HAVE TO HELP HIM!" Fluttershy yelled as she soars up into the air.

"Fluttershy no!" Twilight yelled, but she was already too high into the air.

"I'd say let her." Rainbow Dash said to the unicorn. "I realized Fluttershy has gotten more confident since Chopper's been around. I think this is something she needs to do." 

The other ponies could only watch, and wait.

Fluttershy finally reached the chariot, just to see the two fighters continue to exchange blows at each other. Tirek strikes at Chopper with his scepter, as Chopper blocks, and counters with his own punches. He was able to land several on Tirek, only to anger the centaur.

Fluttershy swoops down, and delivers a flying kick,





striking Tirek in his back.



"You DARE to lay a hoof on me??" He angrily bellowed.

He then grabs Fluttershy by the throat, and begins to choke her, as she gasps for air.

Chopper swings again, only for Tirek to grab him by the neck as well with his other hand.

"I didn't want to do this again so soon, but I have no choice." Chopper said to himself, as he reaches into his backpack, attempting to pull out another rumble ball. "My Monster Point may be our only hope now."

But before he could put the ball into his mouth, Tirek shakes him violently, and Chopper drops the rumble ball off the chariot. To make things worse, Chopper's backpack also slides off his back, and also falls off the chariot.

"No, this isn't good." Chopper said. His strength leaving him, as he turns back into his tiny brain point.

"Indeed, little one. You and your little girlfriend will personally meet your end at my hand." Tirek said as he squeezes both of them even harder.

The situation was grim. Chopper and Fluttershy were completely at his mercy. The others on the ground were fighting off Tirek's forces, but are horribly outnumbered. Ponyville lies in ruins, The Elements of Harmony are unusable because of Applejack's transformation, and the princesses are still stone.

"Looks like this is the end," Chopper thought to himself. "Luffy, Everyone... I'm sorry. I guess I'll never see you guys again. Fluttershy, I..... I love you..... and I'm sorry I couldn't save you."

Chopper then hears a familiar voice in his head calling for him.

"Oy, Chopper!"

"Huh?"

"CHOPPER!!"

"Luffy?"

The second time, Luffy's voice sounded louder, like he was in the same vicinity as him.

Chopper opens his eyes, to see...... Tirek's face, with shock and surprise, looking up in the sky.

Chopper then, with what was left of his energy, turns to see what the commotion was about.

He sees.........



A ship, flying through the air. A ship, with the bow shaped like a lion, it's mane like the sun....... 

THE THOUSAND SUNNY!


"There I see him!" Usopp yelled, while looking through a telescope.

"Hang on Chopper!" Luffy yelled, as the Thousand Sunny grew closer to Tirek's chariot.

"What? What is that? How can a ship fly through the air?" Tirek yelled in bewilderment.

Before anyone else could say anything, the Thousand Sunny crashes into the Chariot, smashing it to pieces.

Chopper, Fluttershy, Tirek, and the Seven Dragons pulling it, began to fall.

The dragons catch Tirek, and bring him safely to ground level.

As Chopper and Fluttershy continue to fall, Luffy stretches out both of his arms. He grabs Chopper with his right hand, and Fluttershy with his left. He then pulls them both aboard the ship.

The Thousand Sunny, then crash lands into the middle of Ponyville. Thanks to it's thick Adam Wood Hull, there wasn't a single scratch on the ship at all.

"Chopper, you ok?" Luffy asked as Chopper gets back onto his feet.

"Lu.....LUFFY!" Chopper happily yells as he gives his captain a hug with tears streaming out of his eyes. "I missed you all so much!"

"We were worried about you." Nico Robin said as she picks him up, and hugs him as well.

"Looks like you were having an adventure without us, that's not fair." Usopp teased his friend.

"So who's your little girlfriend?" Zoro asked as he looks at Fluttershy, who is shocked at what she was seeing.

Fluttershy had never seen humans before. She had always thought they were creatures of myth, but here they are. They were standing right in front of her, and interacting with her.

"She's adorable." Robin said as she walked up to Fluttershy.

Fluttershy instinctively flinched backwards.

"Robin, you're scaring her!" Nami said. "Hey don't worry, we won't hurt you, especially if you're Choppers friend."

"Umm, ok." Fluttershy replied.

"SHE.... SHE SPOKE??!!" Brook yelled out, as Franky, Sanji, Usopp, and Zoro were all equally surprised.
"I don't think I've ever heard a pony speak before.... even though I have no ears...YOHOHOHOHO!"

Fluttershy was terrified by the walking Skeleton. But Chopper eased her by stroking her mane.

"It's ok, That's my friend Brook, he scared me too when I first met him, but he's really nice, and a great musician."

"OOOH SOOO COOL! A TALKING PONY WITH WINGS!" Luffy said with his eyes shining like stars. "Wanna join my crew? And do you poop?"

"We don't have time for that!" Nami angrily yelled as she bops him on the head.

"So Chopper, you got yourself a girl, I'm proud of you. You've become a man." Sanji said, as he takes a long drag from his cigarette.

"Ah, little pony, I'm sorry for scaring you." Brook said, as he extends his bony hand to her and pets her gently. This eases her, and confirms what Chopper said earlier. "By the way.... Can I borrow some money?"

"Stop that!" Nami yelled as she kicks Brook in the head.

*SQUEAK* Fluttershy let out a chirp.

"Sorry, Sorry!" Nami reassured the pony. "It's ok, we're all friends here. They're just like bratty siblings more than anything else."

Fluttershy, at this point, couldn't help but give a light chuckle. Sure they were bickering with each other, but she knew a family when she saw one.

"Hi, Um.. My name is Fluttershy. Thank you all for saving me and Chopper."

"Fluttershy, such a cute name." Robin said with a warm smile.

"Hey Chopper," Zoro called, "So what's with that horned monster? He giving you trouble?"

"He's a bully, and a bad guy. He's trying to hurt my new friends, and destroying their homes and families." Chopper explained to the rest of the crew.

"Hmph. Well, we can't have that happening." Zoro replied.

"And why would you care Moss Head?" Sanji said.

"What was that Pervert Cook?" Zoro glared.

As the two were about to bicker, Franky broke them up.

"If they're your friends Chopper, then they're our friends too. Right guys?" Luffy addressed the rest of the crew.

"RIGHT!" They all say in unison.

"How did you find me Luffy?" Chopper asked.

"I dunno, I simply felt like going this way. I think it was my Haki. Nami said I was crazy because her log pose said nothing was here. But I told Franky to fire the Coup De Burst in this direction anyway. I KNEW you were here Chopper, and that you'd be ok." Luffy explained.

"Wow, You have such dedicated friends Chopper. They must really love you." Fluttershy said as she nuzzled him.

The other crew members would only laugh, tease and giggle at the two.

Suddenly, the flying stegadons descend on to the ship. A number of grappling hooks also clamp onto the sides of the Sunny, and the lizard troops climb into the Sunny's deck.

"HEY! I never said you could board my ship!" Franky yelled as he cocks his mechanical arms.

"Finally, some action." Zoro said as he unsheaths his swords.

Luffy cracks his knuckles, as the rest of the Straw Hats prepare for battle.

"Looks like we're gonna have some fun, after all. Guys, GET READY!"

> The tide of battle turns; Luffy and the Straw Hats arrive!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tirek, the dark conqueror has succeeded in bringing down Princess Celestia, Luna, and the royal guard of Equestria.
Chopper, and his pony friends are facing a grim situation while trying to battle against this ancient evil. Due to Applejack's transformation into a dragon monster, the Elements of Harmony were rendered useless. All hope seemed, lost, until the arrival of the Thousand Sunny, carrying Luffy, and the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates. Now Luffy and the others are preparing to join the fray, to help their new friends.


As the stegadons and lizardmen board the Sunny, and attempt to surround the Straw Hats and Fluttershy, Luffy simply grins.

"Hey Franky," he called to his cybernetic friend, "I'll let you handle these guys."

"I would be SUUUUPEEER glad to do it!" Franky replied as he his shoulders open, revealing a number of rockets hidden inside.

"Franky..... ROCKET LAUNCHER!" 

Franky fires a salvo of rockets at the troops, sending them flying off the Sunny.

"I told you! I never gave you permission to step foot on my ship!" Franky yelled as he closes the ports on his shoulders.

"Come on guys!" Luffy addresses the rest of the Straw Hats, "Let's help our new friends!"

The rest of the crew yell in agreement, as they all depart from the Sunny, as Fluttershy is carried by Chopper in his Heavy Point form.

Fluttershy couldn't have felt more than grateful. Sure she had only just met these humans, but judging by their character, they valued friendship above everything else. She felt she could trust them. After all, they're Chopper's friends, his family.

The nine Straw Hat Pirates, charge into the middle of Ponyville, as Chopper leads the way towards Twilight Sparkle, and the rest of the Mane 6.

"Hey! Twilight! Over here!" Chopper yelled while running and waving at her.

"Chopper, there you are! You and Fluttershy ok?" Twilight asked, but then she and the rest of the ponies stop, and stare in awe at the rest of the Straw Hat crew.

"Whoa, NO WAY!" Rainbow Dash said, "Humans?"

"I guess the old legends are true after all." Rarity added, still having a hard time grasping that humans were indeed in Ponyville.

"OOOH, New friends! When this is over, I have to throw you all a big Welcome to Ponyville Party!" Pinkie excitedly yelled.

"This one looks fun!" Luffy said as he greets the pink pony. " I like you already. I'm Monkey D. Luffy! Captain of the Straw Hat Pirates!"

"I'm Pinkie Pie! I throw the Best Parties in all of Equestria!"

"Sorry, but no time for introductions right now." Twilight interrupted, "We still have a battle to fight, and our home to free."

"Hey any friend of Chopper is a friend of ours!" Usopp said to the unicorn. "We'll gladly help you."

"Oh, thank you all so much." Fluttershy responded, "We have to stop that horrible Tirek before he turns us all into those monsters."

"So what you're saying is, those creatures are all talking ponies like you?" Nami asked.

"Unfortunetely, yes, he used some evil spell to turn our friends into mindless beasts." Rarity replied. "We have to find a way to reverse it. Especially for Applejack's sake."

Rarity then eyes Nami for a bit.

"My for a human, you ARE quite lovely. When this is over, you MUST model for me. I am quite sure you would look astounding in one of the gowns I'm making."

"Uhh, well, not to brag or anything." Nami replied, blushing.

"OF COURSE! Nami-Swaan is a most beautiful GODDESS!" Sanji yelled in agreement.

"Can we please stick to reality?" Twilight Sparkle interrupted again.

"Sorry dear, but I do have an eye for quality. And this human, I can tell has rather good taste." Rarity replied, as she stands back into a fight pose as a number of lizardmen surrounding the group.

They are soon joined by Tirek, riding on the Applejack dragon.

"So, humans.... You are foolish for coming here. This does not concern you. BEGONE!"

"No way, you tried to hurt my friend," Luffy shot back.

"So be it....... Eliminate them all!" Tirek ordered.

"Finally, some fun time.... Two Sword Style!" Zoro said as he unsheaths two of his blades.

Rainbow Dash flies up and lands next to him.

"I'm here to back you up." She said.

"Whatever." Zoro flately responded.

The lizard troops then charge, as a number of stegadons also swoop down and begin to attack.

Luffy looks at them, then streches both his arms backward, and like a giant slingshot, flings his arms foward with his palms facing outward.

"Gomu Gomu No..... BAZOOKA!"


Luffy's strike sends an untold number of attacking troops flying away, as the ponies look on in awe.

"Humans can stretch, that's super duper cool!" Pinkie responded.

"Only he can." Nico Robin replied. "He's eaten the Rubber Rubber fruit. It turned his body into one giant living rubber band."

"Very interesting, I'm sure that will really help us. I just hope my library is still intact once this is over." Twilight said.

Robin couldn't help take notice to what the unicorn said.

"Library? Are you a librarian?"

"Well yes, I'm Twilight Sparkle, the prized student of Princess Celestia, our ruler, and now the town librarian. I spend most of my time studying."

Robin gave a smile.

"Quite interesting. I am Nico Robin. I am an archeologist, and a bit of a scholar myself. When this is over, perhaps I can visit your library, and you can also see ours aboard our ship."

Twilight's eyes lit up

"That would be wonderful, but let's take care of things here first."

"Of course my little friend."

She then sees a number of stegadons flying towards her.

Twilight Sparkle fires a number of bolts from her horn at the attackers, knocking a good number down, but there were still more. Much more.

"I can't keep this up for long." She said.

"Then allow me." Robin replied as she steps up, and crosses her arms in front of her, and closes her eyes.

"DOS Fleur."

Suddenly a pair of hands sprout on each of the Stegadon's shoulders. They grab each of them in the neck.

"Clutch!"

The hands twist each of the Stegadon's necks, as they fall to the ground unconcious.

"Whoa, how did you do that?" Twilight asked.

"I ate the Flower Flower Fruit. It allows me to bloom any part of my body on any surface like a flower."

"Very interesting indeed." Twilight looked at Robin, then both resume their combat.





Rainbow Dash soars through the air, as the stegadons give chase. She does a number of loops which cases the pursuers to become confused. She then turns around and give a number of powerful kicks that send them slamming into the ground.

Below, Zoro unleashes a fury of sword swipes at the incoming attackers, using the blunt end of his blades, being careful not to kill any of the opponents. He then crosses his two swords together, and uses energy and sends what looks like a projectile at the lizardmen.

"Phoenix Cannon!"

It strikes them, and sends them flying in multiple directions. Rainbow Dash then swoops in and kicks away a stegadon coming from behind him.

"I could have handled it." Zoro said.

"Your Welcome..." Rainbow Dash said annoyed.

"Well, I have to admit, I saw you flying around up there against those dragons. You got some slick moves kid." Zoro said.

"Heh, thanks. You're not so bad yourself." Rainbow Dash replied. "Well, for a human."

The two gave each other mischivious grins, then resumed their battles.





"POP GREEN STAR: DEVIL!"

Usopp fires a pop green from his slingshot, the Black Kabuto, at a number of attackers. It then sprouts into a giant venus flytrap that attacks and bites at the troops.


"That was so cool!" Scootaloo said as she and Sweetie Belle stand behind Usopp.

"That's right, I am Usopp! The bravest sniper in all the seas!" he boasts.

More lizardmen head towards Usopp and the fillies, as he reloads his Kabuto.

"Pop Green Star: Sargasso!"

The pop green impacts on the targets, and a giant mass of seaweed tangles the attackers, rendering them immobile.

"Things are certainly looking better now that you guys showed." Scootaloo beamed.

"Of course, with the Mighty Usopp to protect you, we will win the day!" he said with a grin.

He then began singing a song as he continued to snipe the oncoming attackers.

Then from a distance, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Usopp here a distinct laugh, which the Sniper knew all to well.

"YOHOHOHOHOHO!"

"Brook, what's going on?!" Usopp yelled towards the skeleton, as he sees a number of lizard troops chasing him.

"Trying to get away, they'll rip me apart, skewer me alive, and tear out my guts. EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NO FLESH, GUTS AND AM ALREADY DEAD! YOHOHOHOHOHO!!! SKULL JOOOOKE!!!!"

Usopp facepalms.

"Destroy the outsider" One of the lizard troops yells. "What a wimp with no substance."

Hearing this Brook suddenly stops running, turns around, and angrily stares at the lizardmen.

"Well, how rude." He said calmly, as he begins to slowly walk towards the attackers.

As they are about to pounce on him, Brook then slowly begins sheathing his blade.

"Three-Verse Humming..."

The lizardmen are now almost on top of him.

"Arrow-Notch Slash!"

Brook completely sheaths his cane sword.

Suddenly a slash mark appears on all the chests of the attacking lizard troops. They fall to the ground defeated.

"WHOA!" Both Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo say in unison.

"How did he do that?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Brook has extreme super human speed. He had already cut them before they realized it. The attack was so fast, those lizard people never even noticed they were already hit." Usopp explained to the fillies.

"Super cool!" Sweetie Belle beamed.

"Why thank you little miss." Brook addressed the little unicorn.






"Sanji, keep them off our backs!" Nami yelled as she and Rarity try to take cover from a stegadon swooping down at them.

Sanji then jumps at the airborn attacker and counter attacks.

"Collier Shoot!"

Sanji sends a devastating kick to the stegadon's neck, knocking it down on the ground.

"I will not allow you to harm these lovely ladies in my presence." He said, as he lights his cigarette.

"My, he is quite the gentlecolt, err, gentleman isn't he?" Rarity said.

Nami simply grinned, but a lizardman had grabbed Rarity from behind.

"Let me go you brute!" she yelled.

Nami then pulls an end off her sorcery clima-tact, and points it at the lizardman.

"Gust Sword!" 

A bubble appears from the opening, bursts, and a large gust of compressed air sends the lizard trooper flying into a side of a building, while Sanji catches Rarity before she could hit the ground.

"My, quite the rescuer you are." Rarity complimented the cook.

"Sometimes, they call me, Mr. Prince." Sanji joked as he puts her down.

Nami rolls her eyes.

"Just get back to kicking their butts." She angrily yells.

"Of course my lovely Nami-Swaaaaaannn!" Sanji responds with his one visible eye shaped like a heart.

Just then they notice the other ponies and pirates running towards their direction with a large group of Tirek's minions right behind them.

"What are those morons doing leading those creeps towards us?!" Nami said in panic.

"Fluttershy, Follow me and you'll be safe!" Chopper called to the pegasus. "I have a plan. Franky, Brook Usopp. Let's do this!"

"This is gonna be soooo cool!" Luffy said with excitement.

"What are you planning? Is it something fun?" Pinkie Beamed at him.

"It's a big surprise!" Luffy answered.

"OOOH! I love surprises!" Pinkie responded.

"Somehow, I knew those two would get along." Chopper said to Fluttershy, who giggled.

"Alright guys!" Franky addressed Chopper, Usopp and Brook. "To the Sunny, let's put this plan into action."

"What's going on?" Twilight asked.

"You'll see." Robin said, with a gentle smile.

Chopper, Franky Brook, and Usopp run back towards the Sunny, with Fluttershy flying behind them.

Rainbow Dash swoops down and knocks away a number of attackers to keep their retreat covered.

"Better have the little ones take shelter in the ship as well." Nami said to Rarity as she motions for Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo to follow.

"But Ah need to save mah sister." Apple Bloom complained.

"And I don't want to miss any of the action." Scootaloo added, "Especially if i get to fight along side Rainbow Dash again."

"Not now girls, just go!" Rarity demanded.

"Fine..." Sweetie Belle said, disappointed, as Scootaloo follows her back to the Thousand Sunny.

Apple Bloom, however, makes a B-line towards Tirek, and the transformed Applejack.

"Apple Bloom NO!" Twilight Sparkle yelled in terror.

Suddenly, they hear the gears of the Sunny begin to shift.

The painting of the Number 1 symbol began to move, as it rotates to a Number 4.

The door of the Number 4 panel opens, and suddenly a loud revving sound could be heard.

"Pirate docking system, Channel 4." Franky's voice could be heard, "GO!"

Suddenly from the Sunny, a large bike like vehicle, ridden by Franky shoots out from the door, and speeds towards the attackers. It plows and rams into a number of lizard troops and then comes to a stop right in front of the ponies.

"Black Rhino FR-U IV!"




"SO AWESOME!" Scootaloo yelled from the deck of the Sunny. "I need one of those!"

"Wow, a cool looking bike!" Pinkie Pie shouted as she begins to bounce uncontrollably.

"I get excited everytime Franky uses it!" Luffy said to the pink pony.

"Let's see you taste the SUUUUPEER Steel of this baby!"

The bike then charges towards more attackers, as Tirek watches from the sky, still riding on the tranformed Applejack.

"These humans are quite strong, but they are still no match against my dark magic."

Tirek then swoops down and with his scepter began to shoot bolts at Franky.

One of the bolts hits right in front the Black Rhino bike, leaving a hole that cause Franky to fall into it.

"Hang on, I'll get you out!" Rainbow Dash shouted as she flies towards him, only to be intercepted by at least 20 stegadons.

Sanji seeing this, decides to use one of his newer techniques. He jumps into the air, and begins to run, in the sky.

"How.... is he doing that? Magic?" Twilight asked.

"No, it's a techique called the sky walk which allows the user to temporarily run and walk in the air. It's not easily mastered. But Sanji is an exceptional person." Robin explained.

"You humans are truly amazing creatures." Twilight said with wonder.

Sanji then positions his legs like a windmill, and begins to spin.

"Party Table!"

Spinning like a top, he sends a flurry of kicks into the stegadons, sending them crashing back down to earth.

He then lands and walks up to Zoro.

"I took down more monsters than you. Top that Mosshead." He then takes a drag from his cigarette.

"Hmph. Just you wait and see Pervert Cook!" Zoro angrily glares.



Unknown to everyone else The channel of the Sunny began to rotate again, this time to a Number 5.

As Tirek and Rainbow Dash were about to clash in the air, a shell flies out and impacts with Tirek, knocking him off of Applejack, and sending him crashing to the ground.

"What? HOW DARE YOU!"

Franky finally pulls the bike out of the hole and sees his other newest creation in action.

"Pirate Docking system Number 5. Brachio Tank!"



A tank, piloted by Usopp, with Brook and Fluttershy inside it, and Chopper hanging from the top hatch rolls out into the battlefield, and begins shelling the incoming minions of the dark centaur.

"You guys have some of the coolest toys!" Pinkie Pie beamed again.

"Only the best from our mechanic, Franky!" Luffy responded to her.

"And the surprises never cease." Rarity said as the Brachio Tank continues to fire shell after shell at the enemy army.

"I AM COMMANDER CHOPPER!" The reindeer said, with proud tears streaming down his face.



"You look so brave Chopper." Fluttershy said with a blush.

Chopper as usual, did his happy dance.


As Applejack swoops down to her master, Apple Bloom then confronts her.

"Applejack, it's me, yer sister, don't ya recognize me?"

"Foolish child. She's under my control, and her memories of you have been wiped." Tirek taunted.

"Nuh-uh! She's mah sister. Ah know she's in there somewhere!" Apple Bloom countered.

"You are a rather brave one, it looks like you finally grew up a bit. Too bad you won't be living long enough to relish in it."

Tirek raises his scepter to attack, but is countered when Scorpan slams into him.

"NO! I will NOT allow you to harm her!" Scorpan yelled with anger.

"Insolent Traitor! You will RULE the day you ever struck me."

Tirek then fires a thunderbolt from his scepter that sends a large amount of electricity through Scorpan's body.

"NO! MR. SCORPAN!" Apple Bloom cried out.

Scorpan then falls to the ground, motionless.

"Fool, thus is the fate of all who oppose me."

"Applejack, come on! Remember, We're family!" Apple Bloom tearfully begged.

"It's no use little one." Tirek bellowed, "And now you will perish!"

"No, Ah won't let it end like this!"

Suddenly the Element of Honesty, still hanging around Apple Bloom's neck began to glow. And an orange light shoots out towards the Applejack dragon.

"What? NO!" Tirek yelled as he raises his scepter to strike the filly down.

"Gomu Gomu No..... PISTOL!"

Luffy's fist slams into the side of Tirek's face, knocking the dark centaur down.

"You WORM! You dare to attack a superior being?" Tirek fumed.

"Yup." Luffy replied emotionlessly. His eyes hidden behind his hair, and the shadow of his hat.

"This doesn't concern you. Why do you oppose me?" The centaur asked.

"I saw what you're doing. You're hurting my new friends. You took away their treasure, which is their homes, their friendship with each other, and their families. You steal an important treasure and dream from my friends," Luffy then Luffy looks up, his eyes now visible, and full of rage, "I TAKE YOURS!"

As the beam continues to connect with Applejack, she begins to shrink.

"Girls look!" Rarity called.

Slowly, the dragon reptilian features of the dragon begin to fade, and more mammalian features begin to be restored. Eventually, Applejack returns fully to her pony self.

"APPLEJACK!" the rest of the Mane 6, sans Fluttershy who's still in the Brachio Tank, call out as they rush up to her.

Fluttershy and Chopper, from the tank give a cry of joy, seeing their dear Friend Applejack, restored to her former self.
Usopp and Brook, not exactly knowing what's going on, give their thumbs up, as they can tell, something good happened.

"We thought we lost you. Are you ok?" Twilight asked, with tears of joy in her eyes.

"A'hm fine sugarcube. Ah knew ya'll would never give up on me. Especially you, Apple Bloom. Yer the best sister any Mare could ask for." 

Applejack then embraces her sister.

"This calls for a PARTY! Applejack is back to her ponyself PARTY!" Pinkie Pie said.

"Save it until after we kicked his flank Pinkie." Rainbow Dash said.

The rest of the Straw Hats, figuring out that this orange pony must be a good friend of theirs, each gave their approvals to see a joyful reunion, and seeing that the dark spell could be reversed.


"It's over Tirek," Twilight Sparkle said, "All of your forces have been beaten, and we restored Applejack. With our new Human Friends, and all of the Elements together again, you don't stand a chance. Restore the Princesses and my Brother, and leave Equestria and NEVER return!"

"BAH! So you managed to break my hold on the Element of Honesty. No matter, I still have the Rainbow of Darkness. And I shall utilize it's power to destroy you all!"

Tirek then opens the satchel, allowing the Rainbow of Darkness to shoot out.

"Oh no," Fluttershy said as Usopp drives the tank to the rest of the group, "He's unleashing his evil spell again."

"Usopp, shoot him!" Chopper called out.

Usopp fires a shell at Tirek, but the darkness of the Rainbow shields the centaur from the blast, and then it envelops Tirek himself.

"I can feel the power flowing through me!" Tirek says, as suddenly he begins to increase in size. He continues to grow until he's the size of a giant. 

The giant sized Tirek, now prepares to launch his attack.

But then Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji began to walk towards him in a straight line, very casually, yet with determined looks on their faces.

"So you three wish to be the first to taste my new power?" Tirek said and cackled.

"Luffy, what are you doing?" Fluttershy asked with concern.

Chopper puts his hand on her shoulder.

"It's ok, Luffy and the others will be fine. Trust me."

This calmed Fluttershy, for she now completely trusts the reindeer that has completely fallen in love with.

Luffy then looks at Tirek, and motions for Zoro and Sanji to back off for now.

"So, any last words human?" The giant Tirek said, his voice so booming, it shook the ground.

"Yeah...... I'm going to kick your ass!" Luffy responded.

Tirek, now annoyed, and slightly angry scoffed at him.

"And who, pray tell, are you to make such a bold statement?"

"My name.... Is Monkey D. Luffy, I am the man... WHO WILL BE THE PIRATE KING!" Luffy declared.

Zoro unsheaths all of his swords, and clenches the handle of the third one in his teeth.

"THREE SWORD STYLE!"

Sanji raises his right leg, and it begins to glow, as if it were on fire.

"Diable JAMBLE!"

Luffy then pumps his leg muscles, and his skin turns bright pink, with steam now billowing from his body.

"GEAR SECOND!"


And thus, the Monster Trio, with the fully reunited Elements of Harmony, began their showdown against Tirek, the dark conqueror.
> Titanic Clash; Straw Hat Luffy vs. Tirek the Demon!
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tirek, the dark conqueror has used the Rainbow of Darkness on himself in a last ditch effort to conquer Equestria.
Thanks to the combined efforts of the ponies, and the Straw Hat Pirates, Applejack has been rescued and turned back to her former self, and the Elements of Harmony restored.
Now Luffy and the others are preparing to take on Tirek himself.


"You fools!" Tirek bellowed, "You have no chance against me. I am now infused with the very power of all the darkness."

Luffy, with his body steaming from his Gear Second activation, merely scoffs of his threat, while Sanji and Zoro stood at his side.

"You done gloating, or are you going to fight?" Zoro said, bemused.

"You will regret such insolence, human." Tirek says has he charges up his scepter.

He unleashes a thunderbolt, as Zoro and Sanji jump away, while Luffy, just stood still. The bolt strikes Luffy, as the ponies all watch in horror.

"Oh no!!! LUFFY!" Fluttershy cried out.

"Don't worry," Chopper assured her as he puts a hand on her back. "Trust me, he's ok."

Fluttershy, confused, and concerned looked on, only to see that Luffy was still standing, as if nothing happened, with a smirk on his face.

"WHAT??!!" Tirek yelled in surprise. "You were hit directly by the lightning bolt. Yet you still stand, as if nothing had happened."

"Hee hee," Luffy giggled, as he pulls his cheek. It streches out to abnormal lengths.

"Your electricity won't work on me. I'm a rubberman. I ate the Rubber Rubber Devil Fruit."

"Ah, the legendary cursed Devil's Fruit of the sea. So they do exist." Tirek said to himself.

"No matter, your abilities are still no match for the darkest of magic."

He then shoots a stream of fire out of his mouth at the Straw Hat Captain. This time around Luffy, using his Gear Second super speed, easily evades the attack.

"Gomu Gomu No, Jet Pistol!"

Luffy sends out a strike, and his fist slams right into Tirek's arms, as he blocks the attack.

"Whoa, this guy's pretty strong if he can block my attack like that." Luffy declared, slightly impressed.

"You are a weakling, and are finished. You should never have defied me." Tirek yells as he now turns his attention towards the ponies.

"Look out, he's coming this way!" Twilight Sparkle called to the others, as Tirek fires several laser like beams from his eyes.

The Mane 6 began to run for cover, as Chopper steps up.

"GUARD POINT!"

Chopper transforms into a giant ball, and deflects a number of the blasts, shielding the ponies, but at the same time, he could feel the burning pain from the blasts. He immediately turns back into his tiny brain point form.

"HOT!!! HOT HOT HOT!!!" he yells.

"Chopper, you ok?" Usopp asked.

"I'll be fine, just need to recover."

Meanwhile, Applejack finally gets herself together after her transformation back into a pony.

"How are you feeling dear?" Rarity asked.

"Much better now Rare, Ah'm gonna join in on the fun!" The cowmare declared.

"Again, thank ya all, fer savin' me. An' you guys too," She addresses the rest of the Straw Hats.

"Ah don't think we've been properly introduced, Name's Applejack, best Apple Bucker this side of ole' Equestria!"

"Well, nice to meet you and all..." Sanji said as he jumps away from another one of Tirek's blasts, "But we're kinda busy."

Sanji, using his sky walk technique, runs up in mid air to Tirek's head region, still with his glowing leg from Diable Jamble, unleashes a counter attack.

"Bien Cuit: Grill Shot !"

Sanji delivers a heavy blow, as if his leg was on fire, To Tirek, as the giant Centaur blocks again, but it leaves a massive burn mark on his right forearm.

"GYYYAAAAAA!" He howls in pain.

"I will make you regret that, little man!" Tirek shouts, as he takes a swing at Sanji, who is swatted down to the ground.

"SANJI!" Chopper yells, as he runs up to check on him.

"I'm fine," Sanji says, as he gets up casually, as if nothing had happened.

"Whoa, What kinda guy just gets up from a poundin' like that, and brushes it off like nuthin'?" Applejack said, amazed at how tough the pirate cook is.

"Someone who's been through Hell, and back." Sanji said, reliving his moments where he was stuck on the Okama Island. He shudders a bit.

"Nice try Pervert Cook, but now it's my turn." Zoro said, as he ties his green bandanna on his head.

He then, with two swords drawn in each hand, and a third, clenched in his teeth flies up to Tirek, and unleashes his bladed fury.

"Oni Giri, DEMON SLASH!" 

Tirek was able to parry with his scepter, and they begin to battle one another with their respective weapons.

While Zoro and Tirek duel, Sanji, and Luffy also launch their own attacks.

"Poêle à Frire: Spectre" Sanji unleashes a barrage of flaming kicks.

"Gomu Gomu No, Jet GATTLING!" Luffy also releases a flurry of punches.

Tirek spins his scepter like a shield, attempting to block the attacks, most were deflected, but some landed on his chest, and he begins to back away.

"Now's our chance." Twilight said to the rest of the Mane 6, "With Luffy and his friends keeping Tirek busy, We can now use the Elements to finally bring him down, and end all of this madness."

The rest of the ponies agree, and they begin to prepare for the finishing blow.

However, a number of undefeated lizard troops begin to advance towards the ponies.

"Looks like we got company!" Rainbow Dash yells, as the ponies stand ready.

"Don't worry, we got you covered." Franky said as he raises his right arm.

"STRONG RIGHT!" His fist shoots out and slams into several lizard troops, then using the chain at the end of his hand, retracts it back into his socket.

As the rest of the lizard troops converge, Franky locks his left arm, and points it at them.

"Weapons Left!"

Franky fires a barrage of bullet like shrapnel at the remaining troops, knocking them all out.

"This guy's really awesome" Apple Bloom says, now with the other Cutie Mark Crusaders, aboard the Sunny.

He's like some cool robot!" The young apple filly said.

"No way!" Sweetie Belle said, "The Skeleton guy is even cooler. He can use music as a weapon, and runs really fast, maybe even faster than Rainbow Dash!"

"Nuh Uh" Scootaloo interrupted, "No pony's faster than Rainbow Dash, and besides, the long nosed guy with the slingshot is the coolest human. There isn't a target he can't hit!"

"The robot!"

"The Skeleton!"

"No, The sniper!"

As the three fillies argue over who is the best human, the battle continued to rage on.

The six remaining dragons began to advance on the Mane 6 and Straw Hats.

"Big Macintosh Apple! Ya gotta remember me, Ah'm yer sister, Applejack!" She pleaded with her transformed brother. 

But it seemed like no use.

"What do we do?" Fluttershy asked, "They're our friends who have been turned into monsters. We can't hurt them."

"Spike please. Remember who you are, remember who I am.... You're family to me...... I love you!"

The giant transformed dragon only roared, and let out a stream of fire at the purple unicorn.

"Gust Sword!" 

Nami unleashes a powerful wind, that blows the flame away before it could roast Twilight alive.

"Eyes forward kid." She said, as Twilight comes back to her senses.

"Thanks for saving me, but I can't believe Spike just tried to fry me."

"He's not Spike, at least not anymore." A voice said from behind.

It was Scorpan, he had regained conciousness, but was limping towards the others, it was clear he was badly injured.

"Scorpan, let me take a look." Chopper said as he examines him. "Keep those goons away while I treat him." 

"You got it," Usopp says as the Big Mac Dragon converges on the ponies and pirates.

"Pop Green Star: Bamboo Javelin!"

Usopp fires a shot at the Big Macintosh Dragon, the pop green explodes, and turns into sticks of sharp bamboo, as it rains on the dragon, who quickly withdraws.

"Storm Cloud Rod"

Nami unleashes a number of bubbles from her clima-tact, each one containing a storm cloud. The bubbles pop, and each of the clouds are released and attach to each other. Forming a cloud like whip, she unleashes it on the transformed Spike. The electricity knocks him unconscious.

"Don't Worry," Nami said to Twilight and the other ponies, "He'll be ok."

"Neat trick!" Rainbow Dash said, as she sees this, "I got one of my own."

Rainbow flies into the sky, as the transformed Derpy and Cheerilee try to intercept her in the air.

Rainbow Dash then suddenly releases a burst of speed, and a shockwave of rainbows blows them out of the sky, sending them crashing into the ground and knocking them out.

"The Sonic Rainboom, it never fails."

"WHAO THAT WAS AWESOME!" Franky, Usopp, and Chopper yell out in unison, their eyes shining like stars.

"A cool rainbow explosion!" Chopper gleefully shouted.

"SUUUUPPPPEEERRR!!!" Franky shouted out.

The transformed Big Macintosh, Carrot Top, and Vinyl Scratch attempt to attack.

"Ah'm sorry big brother, but I do this cause I love ya."

Applejack jumps onto her brother's back.

"YEE-HAAH!"

She rides the back of the dragon like a rodeo steed. Big Macintosh tries to buck her off, but the cowmare's skill from previous rodeos made her unshakable.

"NOW PINKIE PIE!"

"Okie Dokie Lokie!" Pinkie reponded, as she throws a number of banana peels under Mac's feet.

The dragon slips, and Applejack immediately jumps off, and hogties him in record time.

"My turn.... Usopp POUND!" Usopp uses a hammer, and knocks Big Macintosh out cold.

"Sorry I had to hurt him like that, he must be someone important to you."

"He's mah brother. And Ah forgive you, it's fer his own good. When this is over, We gotta find a way to turn him back."

As Vinyl Scratch and Carrot Top continue the assault by shooting jets of fire at the rest of the pirates and ponies, Brook begins to play his violin. Vinyl stops as soon as she hears the music start.

"Yes, that's right. Let the melody soothe you."

He continues to play...

"Party Music!"



Vinyl now, completely drowned in the melody of Brook's music begins to calm down.

However, she quickly comes back to her senses, and tries to attack the skeleton.

"Ah, I've already struck you."

The transformed DJ pony looks at him in confusion.

"Quinto Tierce Fantasia!"   Brook sheaths his cane sword.

Vinyl suddenly feels a sharp pain, and falls to the ground. Defeated.

All that's left now, is the Carrot Top dragon, as she attempts to make another swoop to attack.

Scorpan seeing this attempts to fly up, but Chopper holds him down.

"You're not fully healed, you don't stand a chance."

"I understand doctor, but I can't just sit here and do nothing." Scorpan replied.

"Allow me." Nico Robin said, as she crosses her arms in front of her and closes her eyes.

"Mil Fleur"

Suddenly, what seems like thousands of arms sprout from the ground. They seem to combine into two larger appendages, and soon form into two giant pairs of arms from the ground.

"Gigantesco Mano..... Grab!"

The two giant hands grab the Carrot Top dragon, as it struggles to get free.

"SLAP"

One of the hands then begins to slap the dragon repeatedly, until it loses conciousness.

"Amazing, so this is the power of the Devil Fruit." Scorpan watches in awe.

"I know," Twilight added, "I have so many questions. I wish to learn everything about them."

"So now that the bad guys have been taken care of," Fluttershy said, "Do we use the Elements to stop Tirek now?"

"Indeed Fluttershy," Twilight answered, "Let's get to it!"





As the "Monster Trio" Continued to do battle with the dark demon centaur, Tirek summons a giant fireball with his scepter, and fires it at the pirates.

Zoro jumps forward, and slices the fireball, and it extinguishes. Sanji releases another massive flaming kick with his firery leg, as Tirek is struck in the shoulder. Luffy jumps up and unleashes another jet pistol, right into the centaurs neck.

"We're not doing enough damage." Sanji said.

"That's because your kicks are too weak Pervert Cook."

"Shut your mouth Moss Head."

"Make Me!"

"Hey, Zoro, Sanji, you can't just kick and slice him!" Luffy yelled, as he prepares another attack, only to be swatted aside by Tirek's scepter.

"Gah, that actually hurt. This guy's tougher than I thought." Luffy said to himself.

"My dark magic is more than enough power to defeat your abilites. No Devil Fruit Power can withstand the Rainbow of Darkness!" Tirek gloated as he points his scepter at Luffy.

"That little toy of yours has caused us enough trouble." Zoro said, as he jumps at the demon.

With his swords in play, he positions himself for one of his strongest strikes.

"Purgatory...... ONI GIRI SLASH!"

With a massive flurry of bladed slashes, he strikes at the Centaur.

"You missed, swordsman." Tirek taunted.

"Did I?" Zoro answered.

Suddenly, the scepter in Tirek's hand falls apart, and crumbles into pieces.

"MY SCEPTER! You Fool! Do you have ANY idea of what you have done?!"

Zoro gives a grin.

Tirek, now infuriated, channels dark magic through his hands. He began throwing flaming fireballs at the pirates.

The trio jump, dodge, and run to avoid being hit.

However, one of the explosions got too close to Luffy, and it sends him flying, and knocks him into the side of Carousel Boutique.

Luffy is knocked out of his Second Gear by the impact.

He gets back up as Sanji and Zoro converge to his side and take defensive stances.

"So tell me human, why? Why do you defy me? This matter never concerned you from the beginning. I will rule this land, or destroy it if the ponies reject my rein."

"I won't let you." Luffy said in defiance, "This may not be my home, but the ponies are important to Chopper, my friend, and they in turn are also my friends. I will PROTECT the Ponies, and you will not DESTROY their home!"

"You? Protect them? What a pointless joke." Tirek taunted. "You'll sooner be ground into dust."

Tirek then advances and prepares for another attack.

"Look at you. None of you have even remotely did any damage on me. You are WEAK!"

"Then I guess I'll just have to hit you even HARDER!" Luffy yells. "GEAR SECOND...... ARAMAMENT!"

Luffy pumps his muscles again, and activates his Gear Second once more, except his right arm begins to darken in color.
His right fist has become almost metallic. Then it appears to burst into flames.

Luffy winds up for a blow as he jumps towards Tirek.

"You fool, no physical attack can ever defeat me!"

"We'll see about that." Luffy yells

Zoro and Sanji look on intently, 

"He's in for it now." Sanji said, as he puffs on his cigarette.

As Luffy and Tirek are about to collide, the Straw Hat Captain unleashes one of his most powerful attack.

"Gomu Gomu No...... RED HAWK!"



The flaming fist plows into the Demon Centaurs chest, as flames protrude out of his back.

Tirek falls over, and begins coughing.

"Hmph, was there any doubt?" Zoro said with a smirk.

"Impossible.... I cannot, WILL NOT be beaten by pirate scum!"

Tirek begins to chant.

"What's he doing?" Luffy wondered.

As Tirek continues to chant, he starts glowing. Suddenly, the wound on Tirek's chest seemed to heal instantly, and he gets back onto his feet.

"HUH? NO WAY!" Luffy shouted, as Zoro and Sanji also look on in shock.

"A healing spell, granted I can only use it once every two hours, it's more than enough for me to destroy you."

Tirek then turns his attention towards the others, and also sees the Thousand Sunny.

"What was it you said? You destoyed my treasure? Then I'll destroy yours..... YOUR SHIP!"

Tirek then gallops towards the heart of Ponyville where the Thousand Sunny rested, and begins to channel dark magic through his hands again.

"NO! He's going after The Sunny, we have to stop him!" Luffy yelled to the swordsman and the cook.

"No he won't!" Zoro yelled as he gives chase.

"I'm on it!" Sanji said as he runs up next to Zoro.

The ponies, and the rest of the Straw Hats look on as Tirek charges towards their direction.

"He's coming this way, we're not ready!" Rainbow Dash yelled.

"Oh no, this is bad, we haven't begun to charge up the Elements, if he attacks us head on, we'll be obliterated." Twilight said.

"YYIIIIIIKES! What do we do?" Usopp asked in a panic.

"Whatever we can, we MUST hold him off." Twilight said to the sniper.

The Mane 6, the Straw Hats, and the Dark Lord Tirek, all in one final climatic clash, for the fate of Equestria, and possibly the rest of the world. The final battle is at hand.
