I watched the screen turn to static as the fairies were entering the planet's atmosphere. "How curious. The planet seems to have some kind of magnetic field disrupting the footage."
Dedenne replied, "Either that, or someone let out a Magneton from its Poke Ball. Do any of the Star Allies have a Magneton?"
"That's possible, but a magnetic field is more likely. Another reason for the interference could be that Equestria has a magical field."
"True. If only we could contact the fairies to have them return. Perhaps we should send a search-and-rescue team?"
"That might work, if they had a means of transportation. Who do we know that has enough experience with piloting spacecraft?"
"I'm right here." We turned and saw a stout blue alien with catlike ears.
"Who's this guy?" asked Dedenne.
I explained, "This is Magolor. He's the one who stole the interdimensional spaceship known as the Lor Starcutter from draconic guardian Landia's home planet, Halcandra, and convinced Kirby to help him back to Halcandra to steal Landia's Master Crown so he could rule over Pop Star and its neighboring planets. During Pummel Fist's birthday battle, he foolishly chose to make contact with Parallel Landia's Master Crown and became possessed by it, but Pummel and his friends beat the influence out of him and destroyed the Parallel Master Crown for good."
Magolor sheepishly said, "Yeah, I'm really sorry about that. Who knew the Parallel Master Crown was so corrupt, though?"
I accused, "Don't shift the blame, Magolor. Do we have any trustworthy candidates?"
"We'll give it a shot." A group of bipedal mice barged in. At the front was a gray mouse with a red fedora and cape. Following close behind him was a yellow mouse with shades. In a UFO was a small white mouse with glasses and a mustache. At the rear was an obese blue mouse wearing an eyepatch.
Dedenne beamed, "It's the Squeaks!"
"You got that right," the fedora mouse replied with a grin.
"I'm glad you know them," I said.
"Well, duh. I'm a mouse Pokemon, they're mice. The gray one with the fedora is Daroach, the leader. The yellow one is Spinni, and--"
"I know who they are," I deadpanned. "Anyway, you guys just might be the right ones for the job. You're properly reformed, one of you knows his way around machines, and you function as one."
Daroach said, "Indeed. Doc, what's the plan?"
The mouse in the UFO answered, "I suggest we take the Lor to this 'Equestria' and split up in order to maximize the surface area explored."
"I agree. This would also be a great way to learn about friendship, which we all could use, especially Magolor. Therefore, I command him to come with us. If he gets in trouble, Storo will teach him a lesson."
The fat mouse pounded its gargantuan fists together.
"Very well," I said. "I'll go ahead and input the coordinates for Equestria into the Lor's navigation systems. Good luck, Squeak Squad and Magolor!"
