//------------------------------// // Chapter 7: The Lion, the Witch, and the Sorcerer // Story: My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Halloween Havoc // by Brerdaniel //------------------------------// On the field, Rainbow Dash is practicing for an upcoming soccer game and has Spike as the goalie to catch the balls which it becomes very difficult for a dog to catch. "Oh man, I thought I was supposed to be on the lookout for any trouble." Said Spike. "But I can see why it becomes so hard for me to do this." "Ha, yeah sorry about that Spike." Said Rainbow Dash. "I tried to ask Scootaloo for help but it turns out she, Apple Bloom, and Sweetie Belle are busy doing other things for the party. Besides I had to show my team that we're gonna have a good game so you're the only goalie I need for this so think fast!" Rainbow kicks the ball and hits the net before Spike could catch it then she kicks the second ball and Spike almost had it but the ball was too fast and hits the net again. Then she kicks the last ball but then it hit the net post and it went off balance and it went straight in the bushes. "Aw shoot!" she shouted. "I missed!" "Don't worry I'll get it," said Spike. Spike went into the bushes to get the soccer back but he started to sniff and smells a strange scent he walks and then he notices something big and scary is in the bushes it was a lion. "AHHH!" Spike screamed and ran out of the bushes and hide behind Rainbow Dash. "What's wrong Spike?" she asked. Spike was too afraid to come out from behind her legs he is shaking in fear. "Th-Th-Th-Th-There's something in the bushes!" Rainbow Dash prepares herself for her karate moves for something to come out. "Who's in there? Come on out of there or you'll regret it!" Before she could attack Spike answered her question. "It's a lion!" "A Lion?" said Rainbow Dash in confused and puts her arms down. "That can't be right. Lions only belong in the zoo and in Africa." "Well there's one now I saw it with my own eyes!" the dog cried. "Honestly Spike." Rainbow Dash kneeled down to Spike's level and petted him. "I know lions are big and tough and scary predators, but I don't think one lion can escape from a zoo and come to Canterlot High for a bite to eat." Then they got a surprise when they heard a voice that is now coming from of the bushes. "Oh, surely we lions are not all THAT bad." Rainbow Dash and Spike notice that the lion was Scar coming out from the bushes and approaches himself to them. "Of course I could be wrong." Rainbow said looking scared. "Y-Y-Y-Y-You are a lion! And you can talk! Alright! Stay back I-I-I-I'm not afraid of you!" "Now, now, don't be I'm not going to hurt or eat you my dear." Said the lion. "Now come a little closer. I won't bite." "I'm just gonna go now." Said Spike still afraid of Scar. "Give a holler if you need anything." Spike gallop away to see Sci-Twilight and the others but Rainbow Dash stayed behind so Scar could have a word with her so she walked up closer to Scar and ask him a couple questions. "F-F-First of all who are you? And what do you want?" "Well, I'm formally known as Taka in the past." He introduces himself. "But alas thanks to this injured I got on my eye you see. Everybody calls me Scar." "Scar?" said Rainbow Dash hearing a familiar name. "You mean you're Scar?" "Yes, well forgive me for interrupting your practice Miss Rainbow Dash is it?" said Scar. "Right, so what do you want with me?" "I just want to have a word with you." Scar said. "I couldn't help but hearing some talk about these magical powers you and your friends just got. So tell me is it true?" Rainbow Dash scratches the back of her head feeling unsure about what Scar just asked and answered. "Yeah, I guess you could say it." "Ah, so the tales are true." Said Scar as he walking around Rainbow Dash. "Well, Rainbow Dash I have a business proposition for you." Rainbow Dash became to hear something that the lion wants from her so she sat down on the benches and began to listen. (The parody song of the deleted scene from The Lion King "The Madness of King Scar") Scar: It's tough at the top I deserve a companion, with loyalty Who will start my hunting grounds And you, Rainbow Dash, fit the part! Rainbow Dash: "Excuse me?" Scar: A king alone is a sad situation indeed But with your speed Now that's something... Rainbow Dash: "You can't be serious." Scar: "I've never been more serious." Rainbow Dash began to leave but Scar jumped right in front her just to block her way which makes her afraid and worried about what will happen. Be prepared for a stunning proposal That power and beauty should bond Rainbow began to walk backward and ends up against the wall as Scar walks towards her. Which cannot but fail to ensure cries of hail to The chief and his consort, the sine qua nonsort Of forming an alliance of you and me Will flow through the pride and beyond! In fear, Rainbow Dash throws her soccer ball and hit Scar right on the face and he began to chuckle. "Oh ho, ho, ho, Rainbow, Rainbow, Rainbow, tsk, tsk, tsk, you know have no choice, one way or another I always get what I want. if you tell what it's like to such a magnificent power. We shall rise to greet the dawning of a new era...which lion and humanity come together, in a great and glorious future!" But Rainbow's geode pendent began to glow and she began to senses there's dark power inside of Scar. "Okay, now I know you're crazy!" Rainbow Dash snapped. "I'm mean I am awesome but I will never tell you everything and work with such an evil lion like you Scar!" "Either work for me." Said Scar. "Or see to it that your powers will disappear forever." "No Scar!" Rainbow Dash yelled. "I get the feeling you are not a very nice lion! I can see your history in your eyes! I know exactly who you are! You're one of Maleficent's trusted friends so you can use my powers for evil well that's not going to happened! Not today! Not tomorrow! Not Ever!" Scar began to growl angrily after hearing Rainbow Dash rejected his offer. "Ah, so that's the game, rejection, huh? Refused? Fine, have it your own way. I don't require your respect. But one day or another you will not keep your speed and your magical powers forever!" With that Scar walk angrily away from the soccer field just as Rainbow Dash shouted angrily at Scar. "Yeah, well...we'll see about that!" With Scar out of sight Rainbow Dash pick up her soccer and walk sadly back inside the school a few seconds later Scar kept walking furiously and kick an empty soda can to the street until he heard a familiar. "Things didn't go too well with Rainbow Dash huh Throw Rug?" Scar turns around and notices Captain Hook was waiting for him at behind the bench seats of the soccer field. "No." Scar sighed. "What do you want?" "I've came here to search for this portal that leads us to this Equestria." Said Hook. "But blast it all! I found nothing so far!" "Oh do tell." Scar agreed. "I couldn't find anything either. Perhaps you should have to deal with this country girl Applejack." "Yes, but there's something we must do to this Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer." Captain Hook thought. "But how?" Just then the Evil Queen Grimhilde approaches to them. "There's no need to worry my friends. Jafar will deal with Sunset Shimmer and while you Captain to deal with Applejack. I had something else in mind for Miss Twilight Sparkle." The Queen gave and evil grin to them that she has an idea how to deal with Sci-Twilight Sparkle. Elsewhere Sunset Shimmer came outside and sat down on the staircase opens up her journal writing a letter to Princess Twilight. "Dear Princess Twilight, How's everything in Equestria? Any cool new magic spells? Well my friends and I are preparing ourselves for the Halloween Costume Party. But I could really use your help and advice right now. You see we have some strange visitors who come here at CHS I think they call themselves the Disney Villains, even though I still haven't quite wrapped my head around why they are here and what. And now after seeing Dr. Facilier doing his magic performance, hearing that Rarity and Pinkie Pie have their encounters with Cruella De Vil and Hades, I got this bad feeling that these villains are trying to find a way to use our powers for evil or worse they might try to find a way to get to Equestria! Either way I just wanted to warn you about if this witch Maleficent and the others are trying to invade Equestria please close the portal until I can figure a way to defeat them. But I'm not quite sure how me and my friends can stop them. I know it sounds crazy but when you get this I'm sure you'll understand. You're friend, Sunset Shimmer." Finishing writing Sunset puts her pen down still doesn't know what to do how to stop the villains' plan then she got a surprise. "Sunset Shimmer, I presume?" said the voice. Sunset gasp closing her journal turns around seeing if there's anybody behind her. But it's not the voice she heard from the library. It's a different one. "Who's there? Who are you?" Sunset asked. And then the voice came from the figure who walked out of the shadows it was a man who is tall, dark, well dressed who had a twisted beard. "Allow me to introduce myself I am Jafar." He said. "You're speechless I see." "No, just a little surprise that's all." Said Sunset feeling a little nervous. "Wonderful I do love surprises." Said Jafar. "And I couldn't help noticing that you are writing to someone who is very close to you in this book of yours." Sunset's geode also glows and it can also sense darkness inside of Jafar as well she held her book away from him and said. "I don't know what you're talking about." "Come on now my dear." Said Jafar. "Here's what I can offer if you corporate with me. I will see that you are rewarded." "Like what?" she asked. Jafar continued "Well I was I was even an all-powerful immortal genie!... Briefly. I can grant you any kind of wish you want unless you can tell me all about your secrets in that book." Jafar tries to grab the book from Sunset but she grabs his arm to keep it away from him until eyes started to glow starting to see visions of Jafar's past like scene where Jafar send Gazeem in the Cave of Wonders. "Bring me the lamp. The rest of the treasure is yours, but the lamp is mine!" And then the scene changes into Aladdin exposing Jafar is a threat to Agrabah. "Jafar's been controlling you with this!" said Aladdin hand the staff to the Sultan. "What? Jafar? You, you traitor!" the Sultan shouted "Your majesty, all of this can be explained." Said Jafar nervously backing away as Jasmine, Aladdin, and the Sultan advance him. "Guards! Guards!" "Well, that's it." Said, Iago. "We're dead, forget about it. Just dig a grave for both of us. We're dead." But Jafar sees the lamp in Aladdin's pocket. He makes a move but is grabbed by guards. "Arrest Jafar at once." Ordered the Sultan "This is not done yet, boy!" Jafar pulls a vial from his pocket. Aladdin sees this and rushes in to stop him, but he throws the vial to the floor. A large red cloud appears. When it is gone, Jafar disappears. The scene changes into Jafar making his first wish. "Genie, grant me my first wish. I wish to rule on high, AS SULTAN!" The scene changes into Jafar becomes Sultan. "Finally, you will bow to me!" "We will never bow to you!" Jasmine refused. "then you will cower before a sorcerer!" Jafar turns to Genie. "Genie, my second wish-I wish to be the most powerful sorcerer in the world!" The scene changes to Jafar becoming a sorcerer and laughs crazy for his victory ruling Agrabah and the scene changes to Aladdin's battle with Jafar. "Are you afraid to fight me yourself, you cowardly snake?" Aladdin shouted. "A snake, am I?" said Jafar. "Perhaps you'd like to see how snake-like I can be!" He smiles broadly, and Aladdin sees a snake's tongue come out from behind his teeth. He then turns into a giant cobra, and the ring of fire around Aladdin becomes part of the snake encircling him." The scene changes into Jafar making his last wish to become a powerful Genie and was defeated by Aladdin by trapping him inside the lamp and the scene changes to the forbidden mountains explaining to Jafar, and the other villains about her plan. "My followers of darkness, the time of All Hallow's Eve is drawing near, yet every year we villains have been defeated many times in the past all by ourselves. But to this year, we shall join forces to come together and combine our power to finally conquer All Hallow's Eve." As the flashbacks ended Sunset gasped horribly after seeing those visions. "What is this?" Jafar asked her. "I know who you are Jafar!" she said in rejection. "And I will never tell you everything that's happened to me in the past!" "Oh come now my dear, what makes you say that?" Jafar calmed her down. "Because I know exactly what you, Maleficent and the other villains are planning!" she accused to him. "And your so call deal of yours is not going to happen I will never show you my journal." Jafar was shocked to knowing that Sunset Shimmer knows too many growls as angrily as Scar. "You'll reget this Sunset Shimmer! Once I found out more about magical powers you will be nothing, NOTHING! I WILL GET THEM SOMEDAY!" Jafar uses his staff and disappears leaving Sunset Shimmer feeling upset as well feeling this Halloween will not turn out so well for her and her friends so she decided to put her journal someplace where it's safe and rejoins the others back inside but Jafar saw Sunset walking back inside the school. "Grrr...if only they give us their powers." He growled. But suddenly Jafar saw something very strange coming from the Wondercolt statue. It was magical colors flying out of the statue coming from Equestria he grinned thinking that he found just what he was looking for. "Well, well, well, what do we have heard." He said walking toward the statue as he touched it he could feel the portal coming from inside. "I think I just found what we're looking for." So Jafar laughed evil that has discovered the way for He, Maleficent and the other villains to invade Equestria. After school, Sci-Twilight and the girls soon meet up and soon begin to talk about the villains they encountered. "What, you saw Scar and Jafar?" Sci-Twilight asked and Sunset and Rainbow Dash nodded "When did that happen?" Rainbow Dash decided to go first "For me, Spike saw me just practicing for an upcoming soccer game when Scar came out of nowhere and asked of what my power would be meant if I were to give to Scar, but I refused when my powers scenes his dark power, yet I know he got pretty mad when I didn't agree to his deal." And Sunset gets her turn to tell them what happened. "For me, I was just writing to Princess Twilight about what is going on and about hearing a voice in my head, but then Jafar came from the shadows and asked if I could share my power with him, but like the rest of you I didn't agree to his deal and decided to tell him that he couldn't have it, but he too also gave me the same warning Cruella did to Rarity earlier." "This really isn't a good thing cause I think, this means the villains are trying to take away our powers and have it to themselves." Said Rarity. "And to add this in...but in a hunch guess, they'll try to also take control of Equestria to get to Princess Twilight and her friends." Worried Pinkie Pie. The girls are soon shocked at what Pinkie Pie said and soon to have a bad feeling about it "Oh dear, that really doesn't sound good at all." Said Fluttershy. "We have to do something to stop them." "You're right, but how?" asked Applejack. Then Sci-Twilight suggested, "We should go back to my home right away and work on a plan to stop the villains before their plan begins." "Twilight's right." Agreed Sunset. "We better get going now and work on the plan before the villains have their on the go." Soon the girls go to think of what to do for am encounter attack after school, Sci-Twilight soon accidentally bumps into Flash sees him but as she tried to talk to him, Sci-Twilight then noticed Flash getting rude as she spoke to him. "Sorry about that Flash, didn't mean to bump into you," Sci-Twilight said. Flash Sentry began to sound rude to Sci-Twilight. "Stop that now!" Sci-Twilight gets confused and tries talking to Flash again. "Um...maybe we should stop bumping into each other like this." But Flash began to snap angrily at her. "I said stop it right now, your so annoying like a fly buzzing in my ear. Stop get out of my way you geek girl!" In hearing that, Twilight gets suddenly angry when he told her off like that, it was worse than back at the time when the Dazzlings took over the school and how Flash spoke to Princess Twilight like that and by of that rudeness. "Geek girl?! How dare you call me that!" she shouted at him. "You...you stupid boy!" Sci-Twilight tries to not cry as her hand glows in her magic and suddenly smacks Flash on his face hitting him against the locker hard. "How dare you say that to me and to my friends, no wonder why Sunset doesn't hang with you anymore and why you hurt Princess Twilight's feelings. Your such a rude boy to anyone when you talk like that. Come on Spike, we're going home first to calm down." As Sci-Twilight soon leaves after picking Spike up and giving Flash the cold shoulder in not liking Flash's odd behavior, Sunset and the girls were in shock seeing that but soon notice Flash somehow out of Dr. Faciliar's spell and it was also broken completely by Sci-Twilight's magic. Flash Sentry moans in a bit of pain shaking his head yet touching his cheek feeling the smack mark from Sci-Twilight's hand. "Ow...what was that and who hit me?" He soon looks up to the girls staring at him "Um...Sunset, did you hit me?" "It wasn't me or the others..." she said to him feeling a bit surprised at him. "But you rudely said to Twilight she was a geek girl...thus she doesn't like being called that." "Flash soon looks down feeling a bit embarrassed yet ashamed for calling Sci-Twilight a rude name that he soon is helped up by Fluttershy and rubbing his sore cheek. "Man..." Flash said feeling bad about what happened. "I didn't mean to call Twilight that, I didn't really know what came to me. All I have known is that after seeing that shadow man guy, I somehow acted like a jerk to everyone around me." Sunset puts her arm around him reassures him. "Maybe when you see Twilight, you should apologize to her and in front of her too. Cause this will be out of hand like how when the Dazzlings controlled you and the students." "I think your right, after all." He nodded. "Twilight is our friend and so is her pet dong Spike." Meanwhile, outside of the school, Sci-Twilight was slowly calming down and yet in tears for what just happened, she soon feels Spike nuzzle her to comfort his friend. "I can't believe Flash said that to you and right in front of me and the others." Said Spike in disbelief. "If he ever does it again, then I'll give up a bite on the butt." "I know...but something could've been right with him." Said Sci-Twilight taking a deep breath. "But I do how things will not become so worse. I just don't like being called names like that...and that really hurt my feelings badly every time I hear that." Sci-Twilight soon pets Spike sadly but in her way to her home, they both soon noticed an old beggar woman walking by and soon a bright red apple falls out of the basket filled with apples, Sci-Twilight soon goes over and picks up the apple to clean it with her cleaning cloth and speak nicely to the poor beggar woman. "Excuse me ma'am?" she called. "I think you dropped one of your apples" Showing the red apple to the old woman who soon turns to look and soon gently takes the apple from Sci-Twilight's hand but what Twilight didn't know that it was really the Evil Queen in disguise. "Oh, thank you so kind dear child." Said the Witch. "I was afraid that I would lose this apple." You're welcome, ma'am." Said Sci-Twilight gracefully. But it looks like you're a little lost. Would you like a little company to come with me to my home and have tea outside?" The old woman soon became delighted by Twilight's offer. "That shall be a wonderful idea, and if you wish...I can tell you about the apple, my dear, for you see...this is no ordinary apple, this is a magic wishing apple." "A wishing apple? For the real truth?" Sci-Twilight asked surprisingly. "Yes my dear," said the old beggar woman. "For this special apple to say, it'll grand anyone's wish. But there must be something, your little heart desires. Perhaps there's someone you love?" Sci-Twilight did confess her secrets to the disguised Evil Queen. "Well...I do have a crush on a boy named Timber. Yet I also care about my friends from school." "I thought so, I thought so." The old woman chuckled. "Old granny knows of a young girls heart. If you like, you can keep the apple for free, a special treat from me." She gives Twilight back the red apple as her gift. "Please do hold onto the apple and choose carefully to which wish you would love to desire. "Thank you very kindly, ma'am." She said kindly and holds onto the apple and soon walks with the old beggar to Sci-Twilight's home, but Spike wasn't sure to like the old woman yet he decided to keep an eye on her.
