The portal opened up in an odd zigzag, shaped not unlike a stylized lightning bolt and twisted almost on top of itself. Two large, blue, clawed hands extended out, forcing the portal open wider as Tchang Zu forced his way out of the Demon Netherrealm. He was a massive figure, with Valmont only coming up to his waist. He resembled nothing so much as a blue ogre dressed in blue-black samurai armor edged in gold. His crimson eyes stared down at the assembled as everyone stared up at him.
"My, he is a big fellow," Valmont murmured softly. He then raised his arms. "Demon of Thunder! Once more after eons uncounted, you walk this earth, free of the bindings laid upon you by the Ancients! And yet already come those who would bind you anew and all the more firmly! Behold the enemies of your clan!" He dramatically gestured with one hand towards the Chans. "What say you to them? What argument do you have for your freedom?"
"I have no argument," Tchang Zu growled out as he gathered energy between his palms. "The only thing I have for them is obliteration!" Thrusting his arms forward, he shot a massive bolt of magic lightning at the group, forcing them to lunge to the side to dodge.
"Well, so much for negotiation," Valmont murmured softly before leaping back as Chan charged him, dodging swings of his sword. "Already choosing up opponents, Chan?" Valmont asked curiously.
"Knight takes King," Chan replied cryptically as he tossed his sword into the air before delivering a flurry of punches and kicks at Valmont, only for him to flip into the air off one to deliver a floating bicycle kick back. "How did you-"
"Isn't Hollywood grand?" Valmont replied as he spun to kick Chan in the chest, only to withdraw a few feet as the sword came back down. To his surprise, one of the studio crew tossed him a live sword from filming. "Seems things have evened up."
Bai Tza moved to aid Valmont, only to be cut off by Viper. "Not so fast, sister," Viper growled as she drew an extending bo staff from her waist. "You wanna dance, dance with me."
To Bai Tza's surprise, Chao had made it to the weapons rack and tossed her a trident of all things. "I think you'll find difficulty matching my steps," she purred softly, expertly spinning the weapon she hadn't wielded in a very long time.
As Uncle moved towards Tohru and the chi spell kit, a pillar of smoke appeared in his path. "Not so fast, old man," Daolong Wong growled out as he appeared, staff in hand. "You've been a thorn in my side for far too long!"
"Leave Sensei alone!" Tohru roared out as he charged.
"Gan! Ren! Chui!" Wong declared, summoning his Dark Chi Warriors to battle Tohru, forcing him to toss the kit to the girls so he could engage in physical battle.
Jade managed to catch the kit. "Okay, looks like everyone's keeping the bad guys engaged, so we're going to have to cast the spell-"
"Look out!" Sweetie Belle screamed out, seizing Jade in her magic's grip and yanking her out of the way of Tchang Zu's next blast of lightning.
"I got this!" Apple Bloom declared. "Audrey!"
"Here I come to save the day!" Audrey III sang out as he moved to attack Tchang Zu...only to come under assault from a swarm of Shadow Khan armed with herbicide sprayers of all things. While it didn't affect him the same way it would a mundane plant, it was highly unpleasant and forced him to deal with the ninjas instead of the demon.
"...okay, ah don't got this," Apple Bloom admitted.
"In that case, you get the potion!" Scootaloo insisted. "I'll handle big blue there!"
"Are you insane?" Jade demanded in terror. "You think you can solo a demon?"
"No, I think I'm the only one who has a chance to stall him long enough to get the spell off!" Scootaloo countered as she hopped onto Cumulo. "I've been hit by lightning before, it tingled. I think I can handle this." Before the others could say anything, she zoomed up to face down the Demon of Thunder.
Tchang Zu chuckled wickedly as he saw her charge. "Feeble creature," he derided as he hurled a bolt from one hand straight at her. "Do you really think-what?"
His shock was because Scootaloo had jerked hard on Cumulo, causing the cloud to rear and absorb the lightning as it hit. "First rule of fighting magically!" she roared out as she sent the cloud into a spin. "Bring your A game!" Hopping off Cumulo, she gave the cloud a hard buck with both hind legs, discharging the lightning - now charged with Good Chi - right back into the demon.
Tchang Zu roared in pain and rage, then lashed out with his arm, managing to backhand Cumulo right out from under Scootaloo. "Second rule," he growled as Scootaloo buzzed her wings to stay in the air. "It is still combat!" He brought his hands together firmly in an attempt to crush Scootaloo between them. She managed to zip up out of the way, but the impact of the demon's hands released a thunderclap that knocked Scootaloo for a loop as the shockwave hit her. "Third rule...know your place!" While Scootaloo was still dazed, Tchang Zu charged up his lightning once more before rushing forward and delivering a powerful electrified uppercut to the tiny filly that sent her shooting up towards the stratosphere.
"Scootaloo!" Jade cried out in terror, desperately clinging to the others.
Well, that escalated quickly.
8101433 Yes... Scootaloo among other things.
Who sends a weather-controller into the upper atmosphere with an intense electrical charge in an attempt to defeat them? It's shocking. It really is...
To days forcast: Sunny whit a chans of demon...
Is she about to...?
*The
I'm almost certain everyone's reaction to this is gonna go through the roof.
Weather this is going to be bad for the J-team is yet to be determined.
Don't worry folks, Scootaloo is on the uptake of things.
That was fun, may I have another? Looking forward to more.
Keep up the great work. Deus tecum.

Tactical Rainbow Incoming!Boom!
ICR which comic it was, the hero got knocked off a roof & was mentally running through his powers, totaled them with "= totally useless"
flight?...no
invulnerability? ...no
= I'm so screwed.
Still, she should be able to summon Cumulo.
8101451 Apparently demon Raiden over here...commence the anime styled sudden surge of power...
Now here is the action pack I'm waiting for! Gotta have more!
8101485
I know right? Scoots is definitely on the up and up.
8101606 Scoots's expectations for winning must be sky-high.
8101438 You are terrible
One way or the other, I've got a feeling this will turn into a PR nightmare for the Chans
Huh, would ya look at that, Scootaloo can finally fly.
However, what goes up must come down. Presumably Scootaloo will be out of the fight for now.
"Fourth Rule of Combat....You Don't Talk about Combat."
Seriously surprised no one else made this joke
8101627 I hope not. The heroes dealing against bad PR against a media savvy villain is something that always frustrates me to no end. Not say it can't be done well, just a personal pet peeve.
8101485
Scootaloo's dancing with the stars.
Well if the pattern continues action will be on Thursday and what if Scootaloo pulls of a Sonic Rainboom? The good guys need a win here.
Oh dear god... Tchang is about to feel the wraith of a very angry Uncle Chan. As he says himself... "Does anyone else want a piece of Uncle?" (Asskicking ensues)
... didn't expect Tchang to pull off a successful Shin Shoryuken. I just hope he's ready to deal with the aftermath of sending a Pegasus into its element. Kick his ass, Scoots!
Heh. Watch the next chapter be "Cameras 2 through 6" and then "Cameras 7 through 14" where we watch every other character in the show appear and start 1-on-1 combat with each other.
THEN we can have "Action". Where everyone simultaneously activates their ultimate abilities. And he camera zooms out to orbit where we just see a giant rainbow explosion envelope most of North America.
from your own description, technicaly touching cumulo should have flayed the skin off his hand.... it's a good magic saturated cloud.
open
the
Anyone else think Bai Tza is going to save Scoots?
8101939 teechnosically it would be a Denji Shoryuken, <Shin Shoryuken> / <Yuri Chou Upper> is a fixed point Shoryuken after doing a positioning regular uppercut with the non dominant fist...
[EDIT(H):]
After watching This one
I realized that TVC's Version of SSK / YCU indeed does have an electric charge, butt only on that one.,. that is, only on the official Stances the move has been featured, not including MUGEN Variants for Both Ryu and Sakazaki Yuri.
Why do I think Scootaloo is going to become the second Pegasus of her generation to do a Sonic Rainboom now? I can see her using all that height for a massive power dive and kicking Tchang Zu right in the face. Of course, given she's not RAINBOW Dash, the resulting explosion could just be a Sonic ThunderBoom instead. Still, it would probably be a blow worthy of Mjölnir delivered by Thor himself.
8101741 I would LOVE to see Uncle take on a demon sorcerer and thrash him until he's begging to be sealed back up.
8102140 Wouldn't surprise me, I think the Crusaders are setting off her maternal instincts hard and she wouldn't want them dead. Imprisoned so they can't stop the bad guys plans, but treated well and not dead.

I get the feeling Scootaloo is going to be ju~st Fine... Sure, she'll be sore as hell tomorrow but she's still CMC; No plan survives contact with the Tree Sap Trio, whether it be theirs or those who try to stop them.
8101485 Scootaloo's plan was on the up and up
8102140
Yes, and after that, the only partially conscious/unconscious Scootaloo will whispers to her: Thanks...mom.
ahhhh,it would be a truly touching scene
One hell of a chapter. Looks like everyone's matched up this time. Didn't expect Valmont to actually keep up with Jackie with the power of Hollywood magic...
8101438 Oh you
8102253 why oh why do I think it would be funny if all the demons that we're going to be sealed/ are sealed with tree sap instead of their normal accouterments
8102452
Because it would be...?
Tchang Zu uppercut Scootaloo? He will pay for that!
Oh no poor Scoot's. Hope she'll be okay.
Not gonna lie, I'm actually rooting more for the villains than the protagonists at this point. Valmont is just too good.
8103109 tbh, plot armor is gonna make her fall back down and just slam in the earth so hard....
8101674 Not so sure it'll turn out that way. I mean, it's not like Valmont's being cast in a non-villainous role here; demon summoning, evil laughs from his ladyfriend, Daolong Won spouting off evil cliches, yadda yadda. Whereas Jackie is already being cast as the 'unenthusiastic adventurer Archaologist', aka Protagonist.
oh damn. i hope scoots is ok
8102168 ... their totally gonna take this shitshow to magic horse land.
8103708 in the from dark future of this fic, there is only war. And horses.
...is Scoots going to return as a friendship nuke like Rainbow?
8102140
