//------------------------------// // Chapter 3: Meeting Fluttershy // Story: Megatron’s Revenge // by TheClownPrinceofCrime //------------------------------// “There you go, Angel. Enjoy your lunch,” said the yellow pegasus with a smile. Angel Bunny and the other critters were having their lunch within the cottage while their caretaker stood in their midst. “Now, wait here. I am going to check on the others, okay?” she said. She went outside her home and saw a bear and several birds waiting for her. “Don’t any of you worry. Your meals will be ready shortly.” After they happily nodded, Fluttershy trotted to her kitchen and began the preparation of her meals. Suddenly, a strange creature appeared in a white flash and stood behind Fluttershy with some newspaper in his paw. “Hellllllloooo, bestie! Quite a refreshing day so far, isn’t it?” “Discord! I didn’t expect to see you here. How are you?” Fluttershy asked. “Oh, same old, same old,” said Discord. “You know me... the Lord of Chaos always fascinated by every unusual moment of every day life. Speaking of which, take a look at this! I think you might like it!” He opened the newspaper before her. Once she read the headline, she was amazed. “Oh my, a new visitor to Ponyville? Just now? How did they put it on the newspaper so fast?” Fluttershy asked. “Oh no, I made this myself. Once I’ve heard about this new visitor, I decided to put the paper together and make it into a surprise! In fact, this visitor should be on his way right now!” Discord smiled, snapping his finger before a timer appeared next to him. “I have some other animals to feed right now so—.” “Oh, don’t worry, my dear Fluttershy. Allow me...” Discord snapped his fingers again. The food Fluttershy was preparing immediately finished and teleported to the bowls of the other animals. “There! Oh look! Five more seconds!” Five seconds later, helicopter noises were heard outside. It got louder and louder once the helicopter itself came closer to the cottage. The animals outside were scattered from the area for fear of the strange object hovering above them. The helicopter opened its doors, and there came out Twilight, Starlight, and Spike. “Wow! That ride was... amazing! We should do this again!” Spike said. “Yeah, I have to admit that was really fun,” said Twilight. “Looks like we made it to Fluttershy’s cottage!” Suddenly, Discord and Fluttershy appeared in a white flash. “Looks like you three have already befriended this visitor.” Discord observed. “Discord?! What are you doing here?” Starlight asked. “To have this epic moment of seeing this guest for myself... with Fluttershy of course.” Discord replied. He snapped his fingers to summon a sofa chair and some popcorn. Then the helicopter transformed into robot mode and stood beside the cottage while looking down on the yellow pegasus. Fluttershy trembled in fear before Megatron as she had never seen a giant alien robot before in her life. A titan of this magnitude immediately overwhelmed her which caused her to hide behind Harry the bear. “I hope I didn’t disturb the young creature, did I?” Megatron politely asked. “Yes, you did. She is really terrified of seeing a giant coming near her, and you even have the appropriate strength to tear down her home and—.” “DISCORD!!” Twilight, Starlight, and Spike yelled. “What? I’m just saying how she felt.” Discord said, raising his arms in innocence. “This amalgamated creature has some twisted sense of humor I see,” Megatron observed. “I like him already. His power he is flawlessly displaying could be of great use to the Decepticons.” “I believe proper introductions are in order,” said Megatron. “My name is Megatron, leader of the Decepticons. The honor of meeting you and your little friend is mine.” “Megatron, huh?” Discord uttered as he flew up to Megatron. “My, my, my, you look like a leader all right! The name’s Discord, the Lord of Chaos and Disharmony! And of course, friends with these ponies and the little dragon here... including my dear Fluttershy.” he finished. “Discord? Quite a fitting name considering your power and personality.” Megatron noted. “How long have you and... Fluttershy been friends?” “As long as you can imagine! And believe me when I say that she is a very special pegasus despite her flaws.” Discord smiled. “Is this the creature this Applejack mentioned earlier? It seems this... friendship magic... has corrupted him and made him deviant from his true purpose.” Megatron groaned in disgust. “Besides, how can he be a ‘Lord of Chaos’ if he is living peacefully with these insects?” “I mean you no harm, Fluttershy. I come here in peace,” Megatron said, calming the timid pegasus. He then offered his servo for a hoof shake. She slowly came forward and stared at his hand. She extended her hoof and shook his hand. “Nice to meet you... um... Megatron,” she said. “Welcome to Equestria.” “Much thanks, Ms. Fluttershy,” said the Decepticon overlord. Then he faced Twilight. “Great! Now that you have met my best friends, I think now is the best time to introduce you and Starscream to Princesses Celestia and Luna! Spike, time to send them a letter!” Twilight announced. “You got it!” Spike agreed, opening a scroll and readied his pen. ON EARTH “WHERE IS MEGATRON?! He’s got to be here somewhere!!” cried the cyclops Decepticon. “Oh I know! He is somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean! I’m sure he is!” yelled the liar Starscream clone. “Silence, you fool! We just checked there!” the female clone angrily shouted. The five Decepticons were hiding within a large cave of a mountain just outside of Detroit. All day, they searched for their leader but with no success or luck. “Thiz massive search for our leader iz a waste of time, Lugnut,” said the other Decepticon. “Megatron iz gone. There is nothing we can do.” Then his blue face switched to the red face. “Those Autobotz scum will PAY for what they had done to our leader!!” Then his face changed again to a Jack-o-lantern like face. “In the meantime, we can sing and breakdance to celebrate Omega Supreme’s demise!” he said. He then started to breakdance and sing crazily to the chagrin of Lugnut. Lugnut angrily smacked him to the wall. “ENOUGH, BLITZWING! We will not rest until we have successfully found our glorious leader Megatron! He is our only hope of winning this war against the Autobot fools! I don’t care how long it takes to find him!” “Oh, Lugnut, your loyalty to Megatron is so admirable!” observed the yellow Starscream clone. “It truly is an honor of finding our great master beside you.” “Thank you, Starscream.” Lugnut proudly spoke. “Ughhh, we three need to have new names!” the female clone shouted. “I’m tired of being addressed with that idiot’s name again! We are our own Decepticons now.” “Hmmm, very logical choice, my dear,” said Blitzwing. “We must have a distinction between you three clones zo that we could tell who’z who. How about we call you... Slipstream?” She put her finger to her chin as she thought about the name. She smiled in satisfaction. “Slipstream... yeah, I like that. Perfect!” “And I’ll call myself Sunstorm!” the other clone said. “And my new name will be Ramjet! Because I hate ramming myself on those other jets. I’m above that sort of nonsense!” Ramjet bragged. Suddenly, a hologram appeared from a device Lugnut brought with them to communicate with someone in regards to Megatron’s whereabouts. “Lugnut, although I was not able to detect Megatron’s location anywhere on earth, I will be able to find him through an unorthodox measure.” “Really, Shockwave? What unorthodox way are you referring to?” Lugnut asked. Then Shockwave held a strange item and attached it on his left arm. “This device will help us discover our leader. It has the ability to discover anybody in whatever planet or galaxy that being may be. It can also create a portal to take us to said planet or galaxy to retrieve that individual.” “What about a dimension? Can it do that?” Slipstream asked. “Yes, it can. However, it will take a few hours for this device to detect Megatron’s location.” Shockwave added. “It cannot create a portal unless it finds Megatron first.” “GRRRRAAA, we need to find our great master NOW!!” Lugnut impatiently cried, punching a boulder next to him. “Patience, Lugnut, we will find our dear leader very soon! After that, the Autobots will not know what or who will hit them.” Shockwave assured. Then the hologram disappeared. He activated the device and pushed the search button. “Find Megatron.” he commanded. It emitted a green beam. Thus, the green beam flew out of Cybertron and speedily flew across the universe.
