//------------------------------// // Sunset Shimmer vs. Turbo Tutone // Story: The Case of the Invaders of Canterlot City: A C.O.P.S. Crossover // by Brian Sheil //------------------------------// Many bikers gathered outside the shopping mall. It was an event to help hurricane victims. The families of the bikers were there as well, taking part of activities that are family friendly. Sunset Shimmer attended the event as well. Some of her friends were also there including Photo Finish, Rainbow Dash, and Wallflower Blush. "This is a good idea to let us join the fun." Wallflower praised. "Not a problem." Sunset replied. "Rainbow Dash felt that this event is a good way to help unfortunate people. Besides, great photo opportunities for Photo Finish to take." "Indeed." Photo said while readying her camera. "I can't wait to take pictures of these marvelous machines." Just then, in walked a noble man with brown hair. He wore a black jacket, blue pants, and black boots. Sunset was pleasantly surprised. "Sunset," Wallflower said, "are you okay?" "I'm fine." Sunset replied. "That person is David Harlson, California Higway Patrol. Codename: Highway. Specialty: Motorcycle Trooper." "You mean, he's a member of the COPS from Empire City?" "Uh huh. I told you earlier that the COPS asked me and my friends to help them stop the evil acts of Big Boss and his gang." "Just thinking about these criminals scare me." After talking to some people, Highway soon approached Sunset and Wallflower. "Sunset Shimmer, I presume." Highway said. "You know about me?" Sunset gasped. "Yes, I do. I know those red and yellow hair streaks anywhere." Sunset blushed. Highway continued the conversation. "I saw the motorcycle you rode on. Pretty nice model." "Aw." Sunset cooed. "Thanks, Highway." "Maybe someday, when I'm off duty, we can ride together." This made Sunset smile, thinking of riding with a member of the COPS team. Soon, Sunset was admiring the atmosphere when she saw a shocking sight. It was Trixie Lulamoon with her hands tied behind her back, ankles tied together, and her mouth taped shut. Surprised, she carefully removed the tape from Trixie’s mouth. "What happened to you?" Sunset wondered nervously. "I was just checking some motorcycles," Trixie explained, "until somebody grabbed me from behind. Next thing I knew, I was left bound and gagged." After being untied, Trixie was relieved. But, something upsetted her. "Whoever tied me up, grabbed some of my smoke bombs." As Sunset and Trixie made their way back to the gathering, one the bikers made a shocking announcement. "Our box full of charity money is gone!" The whole crowd was surprised to hear that. Suddenly, a brutal man with black hair, mustache and beard and wearing sunglasses rushed through the crowd. He wore a light pink shirt, white pants with black suspenders, and black shoes. In the crowd, Photo Finish recognized the brute. "I don't believe it. That's Turbo Tutone!" Wallflower Blush was surprised to here that name. "He's Big Boss' getaway car driver!" Sunset and Trixie arrived to see Turbo rush to the parking lot. Suddenly, Highway went past them. "Don't worry, folks. I got this." Sunset had a thought. "Was Turbo Tutone the guy who jumped you?" "I didn't know his name." Trixie replied. "But, I know his face anywhere." Just then, motors were heard. Turbo drove off in his special vehicle, the Roadster. Highway revved up his motorcycle, and pursued him. Sunset then hopped on her motorcycle and joined the chase. On the road, Turbo felt pleased. "Good thing I had the Roadster hidden." Turbo said to himself. "Now, I'll be able to enjoy this haul I pulled off." Suddenly, he heard sirens. "Darn it! The COPS!" With lights flashing and sirens wailing, Highway pursues the crook. Soon, Sunset rides by his side. "What are you doing here, Sunset?" Highway asked. "That crud disrupted a good event and hurt one of my friends." Sunset explained. "I take things like that personal." "Either way, Turbo Tutone has to be stopped." "I know these streets. I can cut him off." "Okay. Be careful." The two bikers separated. Meanwhile, Turbo looks around while driving his Roadster. "I'll sneak through the alley near Sugarcube Corner. He'll never find me there." Just as Turbo goes down the alley, he stopped his vehicle. Sunset and her motorcycle were waiting for him. "Out of my way, you bacon haired brat!" Turbo threatened. Sunset went into a fighting stance. "No way, Turbo." Highway stopped his bike when he was waved to by Flash Sentry. "Are you looking for that road hog named Turbo Tutone?" Flash asked. "Have you seen him?" Highway said. "He sneaked down the alleyway near Sugarcube Corner." Highway nodded. "Thank you, sir." The COPS cycle trooper took off for Sugarcube Corner. Meanwhile, Sunset was holding her own against Turbo as she gives him a kick to the stomach. "You're one tough broad, Sunset Shimmer." Turbo said. "But, I'll still beat you." "Is that so?" Sunset said. Turbo charged after her. But, Sunset grabbed his arm and flipped him over her shoulder. Turbo landed on his back. Highway's voice was heard. "Good work, Sunset." She turned and saw Highway with a metal box in his hand. "Highway." Sunset cheered. "You got the charity money back!" "Right." Highway replied. "While you were battling that grease monkey, I grabbed the box from his Roadster." Slowly getting up, Turbo faced his opponents. Soon, he grabbed something from his pocket. "You have have gotten back that charity money." Turbo said. "But, you won't get me!" Turbo threw a small ball down on the ground, and was covered with smoke. The heroes braced themselves for anything while Highway held onto the box. When the smoke cleared, Turbo was gone. So was his Roadster. He drove down another road. "Good thing I grabbed those smoke bombs from that Trixie chick." Turbo said to himself. "They sure came in handy." Turbo laughed wickedly as he drives on. Meanwhile, Highway puts the box in a storage area of his bike. Sunset still feels defeated. "I can't believe Turbo Tutone got away!" Sunset growled. "Don't let it bug you." Highway comforted. "We did get the charity money. Let's head back to the mall." Sunset felt a little better. "Good idea, Highway. Let's hit the road." Soon, the two bike riders zipped down the road to rejoin Sunset's friends.
