//------------------------------// // Prelude // Story: Equestria Ninja Girls Going Digital // by WarriorofFaith18 //------------------------------// 8 years ago….. In the Digital World, four beings arrived at a mountain location. One was a metal sea serpent, another looked like a robotic dinosaur with huge cannons, one was a giant puppet with a hammer, and the other was a tall clown jester with swords on his back. They were known and feared as The Dark Masters. The puppet then started complaining. “So when are these so called visitors gonna get here? I'm bored!” “One more whine out of you and you're firewood, Puppetmon!” The robot Dinosaur growled. “You’re a terrible conversationist, you know that Machinedramon?” Groaned Puppetmon. The clown floated between the two chuckling. “Patience. patience. I'm curious to hear from these visitors.” “They better make it worth our time, Piedmon! For their sake!” Machindramon hissed. Piedmon still kept his smile. “Oh come on, Machinedramon. Since when have we never had any laugh and giggles with everyone we met?” The sea serpent leaned closer. “And if we don't like what they say, we'll get a free meal in the process!” “I’m sure you’ll munch on something, MetalSeadramon. I’m beginning to hope these visitors don’t cooperate.” Piedmon smirked. Just then, a portal opened. The four Digimon watched as the giant alien brain Kraang Prime emerged as well as a couple of Krang droids. Piedmon floated up to the big brain. “Kraang Prime, I presume?” Kraang Prime sneered. “The ones known as The Dark Masters.” “Me and my cohorts have come to hear of your proposition.” The clown smiled. Kraang Prime nodded. “Krang desires your lust for that which is known as conquest. You wish to rule your world known as the Digital World as well as the world known as the other world. But both could use some improvements.” “Improvements?” Machinedramon looked up as MetalSeadramon just growled. A Kraang droid presented a container full of canisters of mutagen as Kraang Prime continued. “Kraang has been experimenting with substance called mutagen. With the permission of those known as The Dark Masters, we can terraform this land to make it fitting for Kraang, in return, the ones known as Dark Masters will have access to Kraang's technology.” Piedmon pondered as he floated back and forth playfully. “Hmm. So let me get this straight. You claim you can help us by offering your technology to us so you can use your miracle gel to make our world suitable for your kind?” “Hahaha! I ain't using that gunk to look like a wad of chewing gum! And Machinedramon's ugly enough as it is!” Machinedramon growled at Puppetmon’s jester. “That is the dumbest thing I ever heard! I thought Piedmon convinced us you guys were smart!” MetalSeadramon roared. Kraang Prime glared at the four’s insults. “You dare mock Kraang? Kraang will destroy!” The Kraang droids prepared to fire their blasters. Suddenly, one droid turned and fired at the other droids. “What? Kraang dare betrays Kraang?” Kraang Prime hissed. “Aw! Don't be too hard him!” Kraang Prime turned to see Puppetmon was controlling the droid with string like a puppet as he pulled out his hammer. “He's just a spoil sport like the rest of you! Let me show you a little croquet. PUPPET PUMMEL!” Puppetmon whacked a couple Kraang Droids with his hammer back into the portal while MetalSeadramon and Machinedramon started blasting the remaining droids. “RIVER OF POWER!” “GIGA CANNON!” Soon, The Krang Droids were blasted back into the portal. Unknown to anyone, one canister of mutagen fell out of the container and rolled away from the area. “You will regret this!” Krang Prime declared before Piedmon giggled as he floated up to the giant brain and held his hand up. “Once upon a time, there was a foolish race called The Kraang who think they could mutate the Digital World, only to be blasted back all the way home by the Dark Masters! The End! CLOWN TRICK!” Piedmon then blasted Kraang Prime back into the portal. Machinedramon then smashed the portal shut with his giant foot. “And don't come back! Suckers!” Puppetmon jested. “What a pathetic race!” Machinedramon growled. “Good Riddance! Those brains wouldn't make decent appetizers!” MetalSeadramon huffed. Piedmon shrugged. “Too bad I couldn't get a Kraang keychain. Oh well! We have bigger fish to fry!” The Dark Masters then flew away, unaware of the canister of mutagen that now rested at the foot of the mountain. ---------- Weeks later, another portal opens near a beach and emerged was a familiar figure in black as he saw a man in a tan robe walk up to him from behind a boulder. “You must be Gennai. I am Bishop of the Utroms.” He greeted the man. Gennai shook his hand. “Glad you could make it, Bishop. Would've been here sooner, but I had to avoid The Dark Masters.” Bishop nodded. “I apologize about Kraang Prime's attempt to try to conquer your world.” “Yes. You told me this wasn't the first time too. Tried a world called..... Equestria, right?” Gennai recalled. “Correct. We, the Utroms, have been working hard to make sure they never come back to your world.” Gennai and Bishop hands again as Gennai smiled. “Thank you. And I promise never to mention about these other worlds. If Piedmon heard about them, he would no doubt try to conquer them all.” “Indeed. It would be…. Disastrous.” Both looked towards the sky fearing such foreshadowing.
