//------------------------------// // Chapter 9 Now or Never Part Two // Story: Chaotic: Equestria Girls // by Roboman3000 //------------------------------// Nunk'worn continues his attack on Viqtarr by blasting him, Viqtarr did his best to avoid the attacks but most of them hit him. Viqtar fell to the ground and Nunk'worn head toward the three humans but Viqtar stop him with a energy blast. "What wrong m'arrillian is that the best you can do?" Viqtarr stated trying to look tough but it was clear that the attacks did some damage to him. Nunk'worn lost his interest in Viqtarr and went toward Sunset and Kaz to attack, "Hey m'arrillian, your fight is with me. Megaroar!" he called out an overwhelming roar that hit Nunk'worn to the wall. Nunk'worn glare at Viqtarr, "I thought you were done for but I will fix that." He fires back at Viqtarr who manages to dodge the attacks. "You two! hurry and free your friend! Now!" Viqtarr yells to the two humans; with some hesitation, the two ultimately move to Tom's cage, Viqtarr pulls out the Torrent Krinth bracelet and places it on his wrist. "Rustoxic!" The attack hit the M'arrillian and covered him in rust. Sunset and Kaz make their way to Tom and start looking around for the key to free him. "Tom, where's the key?" Kaz asked his friend in a panic. "Over there." Tom pointed to the key holder that has the key on it. Seeing it Sunset raced toward the holder but Nunk'worn broke free from the Rustoxic and fired attacks at Viqtarr who in turn attacked back. As the two were blasting their attacks Sunset got to the key holder place and grabbed it. "Got it!" She said as she ran back to the cage, Back with the beams, Viqtarr almost had the edge on Nunk'worn until he got hit by an attack from behind. “Viqtarr!" Sunset yell in worry tone. Everyone saw that the direction where that attack came from and stepped out from was the underworlder that looked like a mummy, "Zamool!" Kaz and Tom yell pointed at the underworlder. Zamool enters into the room and walks next to Nunk'worn as they stand against Viqtarr, "Ha Ha Ha! Now that I have this underworld creature with me, you stand no chance Overworlder!" The M'arrillian gloated as he and Zamool aimed their attacks at Viqtarr whose eyes went wide. Meanwhile back on earth Sunset in her pony-up outfit was in a fearsome battle with Blazier construct who was still on the Mowercycle and he was using it to road her over but Sunset kept avoiding the hits. Blazier turned around to hit her again but this time Sunset grabbed onto the handlebar of the Mowercycle and got on the vehicle. The two continue fighting as they try to push each other out of the vehicle and drive away from the neighborhood like crazy. "Sunset!" Tom cried as he, Flash Sentry, and Wallflower Blush popped out of a car that they were hiding behind. "I'm going after her!" He told the two. "I'm coming too." Flash said, "I am not going to stand around when my friends need help." "Flash, I know I'm still new to all of this, but I think it will be best if you two stay here for now and I go to get her some help." Tom declared as he moved to catch up with Sunset & Blazier, he then pulled out his cell phone and tried to make a call. "Come on guys, pick up." He muttered into it not getting any answers. Sunset and Blazier continue to drive across the neighborhood like crazy until they run into a park and hit a tree. When the Mowercycle crashed into the tree it exploded in white codes and the two got knocked to the ground, hard. They both slowly got back up but with some damage from the clash, Blazier gave her a death glare and attacked Sunset with earth attacks. "Man, I wish the other girls were here right now." Sunset thought to herself as she did her best to avoid the attacks but missed one. Before the attack could hit her, Tom pulled her out of the way and the two rolled to the ground. "Tom! What are you doing?" She asked. "Don't worry Sunset, I told Flash and Wallflower to stay back for now." He said to reassure her. "What no, I mean you shouldn't be here." Sunset said to him, "Call Twilight and the others, I can't beat this guy on my own." "Yeah about that, We got a problem." Tom pulled out his phone, "I can't get a hold on anyone, I think something bad must have happened." The two overheard a laugh coming from a tree and stepping out of it was Maxxor with his arms folded and his eyes close. "Guess that my other creatures took care of your so-called friends," He then opened his eyes and they were not the same orange there were but now green. "All that's left is to finish you two," He said with an evil grin. Sunset and Tom both stare in confusion at the new state of the Maxxor construct as the two got back up. "Ok, Since when can you guys talk?" Tom asked Maxxor. "Oh come on MajorTom, you think you can be the only one who gets to be Maxxor." Maxxor questioned him as he pointed at his green eyes. Tom looked closer and then realized. "Tank?! Is that you?" Tom asked again. "That right Tommy boy, Now I won't just get to see you crushed by your favorite creature," The Tank Maxxor replied as he cracked his hands, "I get to do it too." "How? How can Tank turn into a creature." Tom wondered in a panic. "This is bad," Sunset answered. "The magic in his scanner is already transforming him. We need to destroy it." She stated to Tom but she was attacked from behind by an earth attack. "SUNSET!" Tom screamed, She was thrown to the ground again and the attack came from Blazier who leaped to attack her. "I'm coming." He was stopped however by a fireball attack that came from Tank/Maxxor as he slowly walked to Tom. "Not so fast, we have unfinished business," He said in a sinister grin. Back at the battle in Gothos Tower, the army of Lord Van Bloot was still under attack. Some of them were being blasted by attacks that were coming from nowhere and the others were getting pulled into the ground. Atrapol, Skithia, Krekk, and Klawam were searching around the battlefield to find out what is attacking their army, Atrapol put on a battlegear called the Spectral Viewer and through it, he can see an image of Nebres who was using a crossbow gauntlet battlegear to attack another one of their soldier. "Found you." Atrapol fires a dark energy attack hitting Nebres and causing him to be visible again. "It the Overworlders!" Atrapol stated scowling. Krekk soaring in the sky and spotting something in the ground, he then fired a lighting attack at that spot. When his attack hits it reveals Vinta and Ghatup, making them lose their invisibility and fall to the ground. "No, it's the Mipedians!?" Krekk stated in confusion. Another of Lord Van Bloot soldiers sinks to the ground and Skithia tries to rescue them. When she pulled him free Faash came out of the hole and blasted them both. "Wait, the Danians too?" Skithia questions. Vinta struggles to get back up and look toward Ghatup. "Ghatup quick, We need to cast another Fanfare of the Vanishing." But before any of them can do that Krekk blasts them with a Cyclone Slam attack that knocks them to the ground again. Nebres and Faash quickly move to aid their Mipedians allies. "So this is it, All the tribes need each of their members to handle us," Skithia stated. "Are you guys seriously trying to keep this truce up? It won't last forever, sooner or later it will break and we all will be back at each other's throat." "Maybe so, but that is not going to stop us from fighting for our home." Nebres declared. "That right, we wouldn't let the M'arrillian invasion happen again!" Ghatup declared too, remembering Tangath Toborn’s sacrifice. "Fat chance losers, once we complete the shadow device, Perim will belong to Lord Van Bloot!" Krekk stated. "Enough," Atrapol said as he turned to his army. "Men, destroy them!" He orders and the army charges to the team. Nebres looked toward his teammates, "Can any of you still fight?" They all nodded, "Good! let's take them down!" They entered the battle, it was hard as Nebres fought off Atrapol and Skithia. Both Mipedians took on Krekk and Klawam. Last Faash was fighting the rest of Van Bloot and M'arrillian soldiers with Bierk helping him by pulling more of them to the ground below. As Nebres clashed with Atrapol he asked him, "Give us the rest of the shadow device?" he growled. Atrapol just chuckled, "Don't worry, you get to see it really soon. Once our ally gets the informant from that chaotic boy, Van Bloot will rule all." As he said that the panel pan down to show in Atrapol's belt is a blue code scanner. Viqtar hit the ground hard as Nunk'worn The M'arrillian and Zamool one of Van Bloot follower walk toward him with but he was not ready to get up and so blasts them with another attack, "Torrent of Water!" Dust of water burst out of Viqtar's hand and threw the two enemies back. Kaz and Sunset went to work to use the key to open Tom's cage. The lock finally broke and the cage door was open, Tom jumped out of the cage. Before Tom could get his bearings, Kaz quickly hugged his best friend. "Man it good to see you again Tom," Kaz said as he released Tom from his hug. "Yeah, it's great to see you too," Tom gave a grateful smile to Kaz but he turned to Sunset and then got a look of confusion. "But who are you, again?" He asked her. Sunset was almost taken aback at Tom's question, "What? Tom, it’s me, Sunset, remember?" She cried to him. which made Tom feel more confused and a little guilty. Kaz gets in between the two, "Sunset, don't worry there's a simple explanation for this." But before Kaz can explain an energy attack almost hit the three, "But maybe we can save it for another time. Somewhere more safe." "Come on you guys." Tom leads them to the door and they follow while Viqtar stays to fight off the two enemies. The three-run to a different hallway of the tower, they finally stop to catch their breath. "Everyone okay?" Tom asked them and they nodded. "But seriously, why do you act like you don't know me," Sunset asked him, almost getting frustrated. "That's because this Tom really doesn't know you." Kaz finally explained to her. "He been stuck here way before he moved to your town, he doesn't have the memories of his earthself." "Wait, I moved?" Tom asked in shock. Sunset calms herself and talks to him, "Yes you did but back on earth you and I are good friends and you have other friends in our school, you even taught us to play chaotic." "Well, I guess I'm glad to hear that my earthself is doing alright," Tom said as he scratched the back of his head. "And this whole thing will be over soon, once Viqtar and the others take care of business, we can port back home in no time," Kaz stated. "Sorry, but I can't leave yet," Tom told him. "What!? Why?" Kaz asked. "Well one, Atrapol have my scanner, and two, we need to get the rest of the shadow device." Tom stated, "I know where they keeping them, come on." He starts to move and the other two follow again. They made their way to a huge door, their open it and inside it was an arsenal of battlegears. "Wow, this must be where Van Broot keeps all of his battlegears." Kaz said in amazement. Tom starts looking around until he spots something. "There it is!" He pointed to the shadow device battlegear, it broke into two and missing a middle piece to put it together. Tom walked over and peck up the two pieces, "Ok, if we can destroy those ones and that will be the end of it," Tom stated. "Alright, so where's the last piece?" Kaz asked. "It is at the same place where me and Owis found it." Tom said, "I managed to hide it under some rocks, but we have to hurry. Nunk'worn already knows where it is and if he gets there then..." Before Tom could finish the wall burst out and coming out of it was Viqtar who was thrown into the room all bruised. "Viqtar!" the three humans shouted. Stepping out from the hole were Nunk'worn and Zamool who were standing menacingly. "Well overworlder it was fun, but let’s just end this." Zamool was about to blast his next attack at Viqtar until he spotted Tom holding the two pieces of the shadow device. "He has the shadow device!" He shouted and fired his attack at Tom, Kaz, and Sunset. Viqtar moved to take the hits and got thrown in a column that knocked over a white crystal ball. Sunset, Tom, and Kaz rush over to help Viqtar back up. "Viqtar, can you still move?" Sunset asked him, worried over his injury. Viqtar try to get up but couldn't move, "No good." He groaned. Nunk'worn float above them. "Hahaha! you were good for some entertainment but it time to end this." He said as he charges up his next attack at the unmoving Viqtar. Sunset quickly found a wooden stick and hit Nunk'worn on his face. "How dare you!" Nunk'worn shouted to Sunset as he grabs her with his tail and starts to crush her. "SUNSET!" Tom and Kaz cried. Nunk'worn glare at her. "What do you think was going to happen?" He continues to squeeze tighter and tighter. "Us M'arrillians may not be as powerful as we use to be, but your still nothing but a useless human." He declared. Sunset struggles to free herself, "Yeah, so what. You may have power and strength but that still isn't going to stop me from protecting the people I care about..." As she said that the crystal ball that fell over began to glow a rainbow light. "Because I have the magic of FRIENDSHIP!" She broke free and started to glow red. Her bright light pushes the two enemies back to the wall and Sunset now with her pony ears and tail now appearing, stands against the two enemies. Tom, Kaz, and Viqtar stare at Sunset's new appearance, Kaz could only whisper to Tom "So that your new friend?" Tom couldn't reply. Back on earth, Sunset and Tom were in deep trouble as Sunset struggled to fight the Blazier construct. Blazier kept trying to claw at her and Sunset tried to push him off, It was becoming clear that she stood no chance against Blazier by herself. As for Tom, Tank/Maxxor was getting closer and closer toward him. "Tank stop this," Tom begged, "I know you can be a jerk sometimes but this isn't you." Tank/Maxxor just ignited his fist on fire "What wrong MajorTom, we just playing around. You know like how you acted when you beat me in our first match or when you proof you could battle against Tartawrecker best than me!" He stated to Tom in an almost evil tone. "Tank I'm sorry but please don't do this." Tom plead. Lava was coming out of Tank/Maxxor's blaze hand, "It over. LAVA...!" But before he could finish his attack, some sprinkle was thrown into his face and exploded on it. The Blazier construct was almost closer to scratch Sunset's face but she was saved by a rainbow blur that knocked Blazier off of her. The two friends turned their heads and standing before them was the rest of the Rainbooms in their own pony up super outfits. Rainbow uses her speed to grab Tom and Twilight uses her telekinesis on Sunset to move them back with them. And Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie went to hug them very tightly. "We are so glad you guys are ok," Fluttershy said to her friends, still hugging them. "Thanks for... The saves but... Shy could you and Pinkie let's go... Please?" Sunset asked her as she and Pinkie let the two go and the rest of the girls just laughed this off. "By the way girls," Tom, still recovering from the hug asked them. "What happened to you? I try to call you early but nothing of you guys answers?” Applejack answers for the girls. "Sorry, Sugarcube but we each ran into our own set of trouble thanks to Tank's creatures." As she finished explaining Tank/Maxxor finally got the sprinkle out of his face and glared back at the girls. "And what with that Maxxor?" Applejack asked. "That's not just Maxxor, it's Tank," Tom told them. "WHAT!?" The girls shouted in confusion. Sunset confirms what Tom told them. "That right, the magic has already transformed him into this." "Wow, it's been a while since someone went giant monster mode." Pinkie comment. "Not now Pinkie," Twilight said, "We need to stop him now before he grows stronger." Suddenly the Blazier construct leaped back to attack Sunset again but Applejack grabbed a huge rock and used her super strength to throw it at him. When the rock landed on Blazier, he exploded into blue and white codes. "What, what happened to him?" Sunset question. "Don't know, the same thing happens to Raimusa and Staluk when we each face them." Rarity said which Tank/Maxxor overheard. "Raimusa and Staluk have been defeated already?!" Tank/Maxxor comment but then smirks. "No problem," He pulled out his super scanner and began typing on it. Suddenly four more creatures appear from bright lights, one was Ulfhedinn an anthropomorphic white Tiger, another is Velreth a rhino man wearing gladiator armor and the last two are Aivenna and Arias. "I can just bring more!" Sunset looks at Tom. "Tom finds someplace to hide, we will handle this." "Ok, good luck girls." Tom nodded and left the battlefield. Tank/Maxxor stared at the direction Tom went. "After I finish when you girly girls I am coming for him." He stated and turned back to the Rainbooms. "Now, do you girls really think you stand a chance against us?" He pointed at himself and his summon creature constructs. "Yeah, we do." Sunset declares as the rest of the Rainbooms stand with her. "LET'S GET CHAOTIC!" They all announced as both sides charged at one another. Back at the battle outside of Gothos Tower, the battle itself is quickly turning Atrapol’s side favor, Faash and Bierk are being overwhelmed by all the soldiers that keeping the attacks on them, both Danians are forced to use their own hole for cover. The fight between the two Mipedians and two UnderWorlders was hard for the former as one of Klawam's attack knockout Vinta, leaving it up to Ghatup to not just defend himself but also Vinta from Krekk and Klawam. As for Nebres, both Atrapol and Skithia attacks were enough to force him to his knees. Nebres looked toward the battlefield to see all his allies being defeated. "No." He could only say in a weak voice. Atrapol turned back to his army, "That right men, don't stop until all of them are on the ground!" He told them. Skithia looked down toward Nebres. "You guys thought you could beat us," She then pulled out a battlegear battle ax. "You all were doomed from the beginning." She raises her ax above Nebres's head. "Goodbye, Little Piggy." "SKITHIA!" Skithia turned in the direction where she heard someone calling her name but only met a fireball attack that knocked her and Atrapol down. The blue scanner that Atrapol was holding got thrown and dropped to the ground. She looked up to see a woman with red bat-like wings and wearing black armor float high above them. "Takinom." She growled. And standing below her is a group of Underworlders arm and ready. One is a short green skin UnderWorld scientist with a brain sticking out of his head named Ulmar and he is riding a battlegear called Ulmanator. Next is Screamer who has sky blue hair, longer purple fingernails & a small red crest on his forehead. The next one was a small humanoid bat-like creature named Rarran. The next one is called Narfall, a gray creature with a large mouth and wearing a hooded cloak that shadow his eyes. The next two are Majar a big stone rock monster and sitting on top of him is a small green creature named Borth. The second to last, Is Kopond a Muge who has gray skin with long black hair tied into a ponytail and wearing orange robes. And now the last is a group of underworld soldiers wearing red armor with horns on their helmets. Nebres managed to get back up to see the huge group of Underworlders and float down toward him were two familiar figures. "About time you came back, Frafdo." He said to Frafdo who managed to get back here on time and with him was a small blue-skinned girl with ram-like horns, " Deenha, What are you doing here?" He asked. "I saw Frafdo flying about and he told me what was going on. So I decided to help him get the backup you needed." She explained. "Well glad to have you here," Nebres said to her which made Deenha smile. Takinom stared down at her group, Tangath team, and Lord Van Bloot followers. "Underworlders! Overworlders! Danians! Mipedians!" She pointed at the Atrapol group and shouted. "ATTACK!" Both teams charged toward the Van Bloot followers who were ready to fight. As the two teams clash the battle for Perim's future begins again.
