Chapter 23- Misaki's Counterattack (edited)

"Ponyville is now under siege! You will obey our leader, Baki of the Frontier Quartet!" Shouted the truck-man.

Ponies young and old were herded into the town square, surrounded by Q-hybrids. Even some guards were caught in the resulting crossfire. 20 hybrids outnumbered one pony.

"Now, my little ponies! You will construct more objects for us to make more Q-hybrids! Any object will do! NOW, GET OFF YOUR LAZY FLANKS AND HOP TO IT!" Baki barked, holding a megaphone to his muzzle.

"What about those who cannot build, you asshole?!" Shouted an angry stallion, pointing a hoof upwards.

"DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THEM!" Baki barked once more through the megaphone.

"Hey jerkface! Why don't you pick on someone your own size?!" Shouted a mare's voice as the sound barrier broke, emitting a rainbow shock wave in the process.

"What's this?!" Shouted Baki via megaphone. Everyone, including the hybrids, stopped to look at the spectacle before them.

"Mommy! These things are scary!" Shouted Dinky Doo fearfully.

"It's ok. We're safe." Ditzy said with a tearful smile.

Rainbow Dash was flying in the air. Alongside her was Fluttershy. Both had their weapons.

"What are you going to do with a bloody teapot?!" Shouted Saki, who stole the megaphone.

Fluttershy threw the teapot skywards, and when it fell back to her, she kicked it. It made contact with the truck-man's face, nearly toppling him over.

"WHAT THE?!" Maki shouted, standing on top of the courtroom hybrid. "LOOK UP!"

"Who are they?!"

"Are they alicorns?!"

"I see ten of them!!"

Saki, Maki, and Baki all looked back up into the sky. The brats, the professors, and YONEKO were in the sky unaided! Their jaws dropped. Their eyes dilated. Baki's mustache straightened.

The green brat started to mock them. He was pointing his hoof and just laughing at the Quartet.

"Hey jerkwads! I do believe we need to repay you!" Shouted Rekka, who held his laser gun.

"What for?!" Baki asked, stomping his hoof.

"You know, for trying to kill me and all that other crap you did!" Rekka answered, taking aim.

Saki was having none of it. Her horn began forming an orb of pure energy. She was going to fire, and....

BAM!

Not one, but two balls hit her side. One was grey-and-purple with electrical sparks flying off of it, and the other was a ball of raging fire. She fired her orb at Baki, who fell to the ground.

"SAKI! QUIT MISFIRING!" Maki shouted sternly.

"I would if I wasn't being attacked!" Saki replied, hastily getting up and barely dodging two boomerangs.

Maki turned his head and found himself dodging Nagare's sword as well as his horn. That horn kept colliding with Maki's own, forming sparks of wind and electricity.

Baki got up from the ground, only to be met by a party cannon, gem-scimitar, and a knife-firing gun all aimed at his face.

"Oh hell." Baki said, sweat forming on his face at a terrific rate.

"You ain't hurtin' anyone anymore!" Applejack snarled fiercely.

"That's right, buck-o! You won't be going anywhere!" Pinkie hissed, ready to pull the trigger.

"Maki, we have no choice! Combine all of our hybrids!" Saki shouted, her horn aglow.

"OK, Saki! Baki, we need your magic too!" Maki shouted, his horn glowing a deep crimson.

"Looks like you girls are out of options." Baki smiled deviously, his horn glowing a sick green.

"What the hay is going on here?!" Applejack asked, looking up as all the Q-hybrids who were working for the Quartet began to to get closer to one another.

"Oh great, Round Two." Tenmei whined as he readied his crossbow.

The hybrids began to congeal at the town's entrance, a sinister dark indigo glow at the vortex's center. The vortex grew in size as more and more hybrids began merging. It began to form a pyramid shape.

"What is happening, darlings?!" Rarity shouted, her voice filled with woe.

A white orb appeared on top of the pyramid, replacing the very tip of the shape. The pyramid began smoothing out into a more refined cone shape.

"What are they making now?!" Yuuki shouted, her wing-beats causing the air around her to crackle.

The shape grew rocks on the bottom, sides, and just under the white orb. Skin quickly formed over these unusual rocks. With a THUD, it landed on it's newly formed feet.

Standing before the very town of Ponyville stood a mountain-based Q-hybrid. He had bulky legs, really huge arms and a head with the face of a madman.

"WHAT THE HELL DID THEY DO?!" Everyone in the town square shouted.

Misaki's horn began glowing a brilliant white. "You have a horn too! Could you not counter that the way we did?!" rang in her head. A white aura surrounded Mountain Man and then......

"S-She just...! NO!" Saki cried, eyes widening quickly.

Mountain Man let off a wail of defeat as the white orb was ripped from his top. His arms and legs followed suit, and all were crushed as though they were in a trash compactor with ten times its normal force.

"GOD DAMMIT!" Maki shouted, stomping his hoof.

The rest of the body was crushed as well, and Mountain Man was turned into nothing but a pile of pebbles.

The Frontier Quartet tried using their magic, but anti-magic collars were put on their necks. They were herded, then surrounded by the Elements and the alicorn group.

"What say you, wretched bastards?!" Baki shouted as he and the other two were being wrapped in straightjackets.

"Let's cut off their horns!" Rekka said angrily.

"Let Celestia banish them to the sun! The moon isn't good enough!" Koto hollered, pointing the accusing hoof.

"Stick pepper up their noses!" Tenmei chimed, his head tilted in a way his glasses reflected off a white light.

"Let everyone mock them the way they mocked us!" Nagare called, unfurling his wings.

"I want some target practice!" Yuuki yelled, the air around her horn crackling.

"Hang them by their hind legs in a circus!" Mikarya shouted, a disapproving frown on her face.

"Shave all their hair off and give them the good ol' chicken feathers!" 01 exclaimed, holding his hooves before him.

"Paint them all hot pink!" Mimi stated, a can of paint and a brush at the ready.

"Turn them into frogs and stick them in scalding water!" Misaki caterwauled, scraping dirt with her cybernetic arm.
