//------------------------------// // Chapter 11: Battling The Creature Teacher // Story: Big Nate: New Life and New Fears // by Big Imagination E //------------------------------// The gang continued walking through the really cold parts of Equestria. The wind was blowing hard, the snow was getting in everyone's face, and the temperature was below freezing. They can't stop now even if they wanted to. Besides they still need to save the girls and stop Sombra. "Hey Shining? You said you knew more about King Sombra right? Well what exactly do you know about him?" Nate wondered. "Well. Long ago when the Crystal Empire was around King Sombra had taken control. He enslaved all the crystal ponies and forced them to do his bidding. Then when Celestia and Luna banished him he placed a curse on the empire causing it to disappear. When me and Cadence got married we now took control when it returned. But so did King Sombra. He almost got away with it when Cadence's spell couldn't last long and the only way to defeat him was to power the Crystal Heart and vanquish him for good." Shining explained. "Wow. That's quite impressive. And honestly were glad that you and Cadence rule the Crystal Empire. Cause we can't imagine what would happen if Sombra got his hands on the empire again." Chad said. "Yes. But then he returned again and tried taking Canterlot. If he claims Canterlot's throne then all of friendship and harmony would perish forever." Cadence worried. "Ooh. That's not good. And I have something to confess. I accidentally brought Sombra back." Randy said sheepish. "WHAT?!" Everyone shouted. "You brought Sombra back?! Why would you do that Randy?!" Nate asked. "I'm sorry! I was with Gina and Godfrey when we first arrived. I had second thoughts when I heard them planning to take Equestria and Sombra wants Godfrey to be his queen once they stopped us! I couldn't bear myself to put you in danger. Plus I promised Pinkie that I wouldn't do anything like that anymore. That's why I'm not bullying you. I attend to keep that promise and rescue her!" Randy explained. Everyone then calmed down after hearing what Randy said. Since he's not with the bad guys anymore he is willing to keep the promise to Pinkie Pie and save her. "Ok. We understand. But keep this in mind for the future that you cannot summon other villains from the past here. That will cause more chaos and we don't want that." Cadence said. "Noted Cadence. I won't do that again." Randy swore. They all smiled hearing that and continued onward. But then after three hours a figure landed in front of the group and revealed to be the half pony and half dragon creature Godfrey. She growled and stared at Nate dead in the eye. "Well Nate Wright. Impressive that you come all this way. But as you can see Sombra is far busy with getting things ready for our little wedding." Godfrey said. "You're gonna marry him?! That is so wrong! And were not letting Sombra getting away with this!!" Shining yelled. "Oh really? Well I would say otherwise. And Nate? You best be ready to bring your A game because once I defeat you I will send you straight to my special detention center!!" Godfrey threatened. "I don't think so Godfrey. Besides I think you forgot about one thing. I have imagination in me so therefore we'll see who will be sent to the detention center! Spoilers it's you!" Nate smirked. So using his imagination he summoned a zodiac stone and pressed a few buttons on it and eight glowing animal spirits came out and flew high. Then they zoomed straight into Nate and his friends and the eyes glowed green and began each of their transformations. Nate turned into a furious cheetah, Randy became a raging gorilla, Teddy and Chad turned into hawks, Dee Dee was a rampaging bull, Artur was now a vicious snake, Francis was now a tiger, and Spike became a bigger dragon. They all growled at Godfrey and prepared for battle. And she was a little scared. "Oh. So you wanna make this a fair fight huh? Well then....put them up!!" Godfrey said. Then they all charged into battle! We start off with Randy slamming his fists on Godfrey's head and she landed on the ground chin first! He landed in front of her and roared! Then suddenly Teddy and Chad came flying down and using those sharp claws they scratched her back bad! "YEOW!! That's gonna hurt in the morning!" Godfrey yelled. She saw Teddy and Chad and tried breathing fire at them. But the two dodged and she tried flying after them. But Randy grabbed her and slammed her into the ground and Dee Dee charged and hit her in the stomach which sent her flying and fell down. Godfrey roared and charged after her. But Nate ran and climbed on her back and scratched one of the wings bad! "AHHH!! MY WING!" Godfrey cried. "You ain't attacking my friends! And even though I don't like cats I'm not scared this time!! But you are gonna tell me us where Sombra is keeping the girls in his lair!!" Nate yelled. He then scratched up the other wing bad and ran and delivered a scratch on her face leaving a scar. She growled as she removed her hand from the scar. "Oh you are so gonna get it now." Godfrey spoke darkly. But before she could Spike rammed into her and began fighting her. Spike punched and breathed fire in Godfrey's face as she yelled in pain. She tried punching back and she did get a few lucky punches in but when she was about to deliver another one Spike caught her fist and smirked. "Tough luck Godfrey. Now let's see if you will tell us where Sombra is keeping the girls in his lair." Spike said. Then he punched her and breathed fire and engulfed all over her body and she screamed. And finally Artur slithered and bit her in the neck and she screamed so long that she couldn't go on any longer. Artur released his grip on her neck leaving two holes and everyone continued fighting. Then after 15 minutes she gave in. "Alright! Alright! I'll tell you! Just don't burn me anymore! He's keeping them in his throne room! If you win against him in a battle you'll free them! Now please don't make me feel anymore pain! Please!" Godfrey cried. Spike heard enough and everyone returned back to their pony forms and Nate grabbed Godfrey and looked at her dead in the eye. "You gave us enough info Godfrey. But I'm afraid we gotta think of a punishment for you til we get back. But until then you will wait handcuffed in Canterlot Castle where Celestia and Luna will keep an eye on you. Francis?" Nate asked. He nodded and opened a portal to the castle and Nate threw Godfrey in there. Once she landed in the castle the portal closed and everyone knew what now must be done. "Ok guys. Sombra has the girls in his throne room. Now we gotta get to his castle and stop him. Once we do then we can save them." Nate said. Everyone nodded and made their way and finally arrived at the sinister dark looking castle. They knew the girls were in there and they won't turn back now. So one by one they all entered the castle and now they can only hope that they will stop King Sombra now.
