//------------------------------// // Mega Mare Vs. Cut Stallion // Story: Mega Mare // by Shazam 25 //------------------------------// Rainbow teleport in Light Lab were Light, Melody and her friends were waiting for her. Rainbow step up and remove her Helmet. "Rainbow are you alright?" Twilight ask. "Yeah.", She said and turn to Light, "I did my best not to destroy them. I just wanted to send a message." "Ya know Rainbow, You are sounding less then the one we know." Applejack said. "And is that suppose to mean?!" Rainbow yell before she nearly fell flat on her face. "Take it easy Rainbow Dash. Your body still needs time to adjust to your new battle body." Light said helping her up. "Right, still having a hard time believing you and Spay turn me into a robot." Rainbow said as she place a hoof on a nearby table to keep herself up. "Melody, why don't you go take Rainbow to get a Energy Can so she can rest up a bit." Light said. "Sure, come on Rainbow." Melody said and lead Rainbow out of the room. Once they were gone Twilight decide to ask something. "Is there any way we can help?" She ask. "For now, just be by her side when she alone. And for some strange reason I can't find a trance of the Robot Masters. Either Spay found a way to block it or remove it, both which sound impossible." Light answer and then told them. Twilight nods. They couldn't really help, but Twilight was starting to get the ideas of what Light and Spay made. Maybe she can build something for Rainbow Dash. Before she could, they all notices Pinkie was staring at the window. "Pinkie, What in tarnation are ya doing?" Applejack ask. "I'm keeping a eye out for the Robot Masters." Pinkie said turning around with binoculars on with her eye sticking out a little. Light look at Pinkie confuse while the others just shook their heads. Spike then spit out a letter that Twilight knew was from Princess Celestia, she open it and read that one of the Robot Masters was spotted in a forest and she keeping all ponies away until Rainbow can deal with him. "A forest? That was suppose Cut Stallion job before Spay reprogram him." Light said when he heard what was on the letter. "We better go get Rainbow Dash." Rarity said and the group nods. In another of the lab, Rainbow was sitting down with her helmet in her hoof. She already drink the Energy Can, which she found tasty, then again that properly her robot self, and thinking about what happen. Melody walk over and sat next to her. "You ok Rainbow?" She ask. "No, Ever since I was reborn, I been different then I'm use to." Rainbow said looking at her hooves. "Well, what were you like before this?" Melody ask. "Well, I was bash, always wanted to show off, practice my flying, taking naps about anywhere at anytime, But now? Those are gone. My new body doesn't have them anymore. I have no regrets of Light and Spay bringing me back, it just, why me? Why did I have to die and be reborn?" Rainbow told her, sighing at the end. "Hey, I can't say I didn't know you before you were reborn, but maybe there a reason." Melody said. "Huh?" Rainbow ask. "You know, when I read the paper about your death I never seen Light so worry before. I knew he still trying to get over his wife death, but hearing about yours remind him of her. So he got Spay and rush to the hospital telling me to watch over the lab. And now that I think about it, you got the same fur coat as her." Melody said. "Does he have a picture of her around here?" Rainbow ask. "Sure! Hang on." Melody said and rush away coming back a few seconds later with a picture. Rainbow took it and saw it was a Pegasus with her fur coat and Celestia's mane and tail. Rainbow didn't expect Light have a wife to look like a fuse of her and Celestia. Her cutie mark was a little tricky to see, but Rainbow could make out to what looks to be a leaf of some short. "Wow, not only is she pretty, but she looks like me and Celestia combine." Rainbow said out loud. "I think that one of the reason why he brought you back." Melody said before the others walk in the room. "Rainbow, we got trouble in the Forest." Applejack said. "Trouble? Which one?" Rainbow ask, putting the picture down and standing up. "Cut Stallion, we don't know what he's doing, but we do know it can't be good." Fluttershy answer, worry about the animals in the forest. Rainbow place on her helmet and check her energy. "I'm good to go, Light how close can you get me to Cut Stallion?" Rainbow said then ask. "I'll get you as close as I can. We don't want falling into a trap." Light said. "Right, time for Mega Mare to make her return." Rainbow said ready to fight once more. Melody could see what Rainbow was talking about now. She always live for adventures but some of the things she use to do were gone. Melody smile, there was one thing Rainbow over look. No matter how much she change she will always be who she is. Rainbow was teleported in a forest and look around. No enemies in sight so far. She walk into the forest keeping an eye out for anything unknowing that she was being follow. As Rainbow walk through the forest she felt highly unease. Normally she won't shrug it off but her new body really made her pay attention no matter what, she was still getting use to it after all. As Rainbow walk on, she stop wherever she heard something and ready her buster. When noting appear, she move on. Rainbow continue and kept an eye out for any thing. She just look away for a second before hearing something behind her. Rainbow span around and rise her buster. She stop when she saw a grey Unicorn with a red mane and tail. He even had shades on. His cutie mark had some shield on it. Rainbow lower her buster and look at him. The two look at each other before Rainbow broke the silence, "What are you doing here? It dangerous." "I know.", He said with calm voice, "I saw you going in and follow you." "I see, Well you better get out of here then. By the way, I'm Mega Mare." Rainbow said and decide to be friendly. "I'm just a unicorn trying to watch out for trouble." He said and held out his hoof. Rainbow shook it and started to walk away when she heard him say, "Being a robot has noting to do on what you are. As Robots, we want to be normal." Rainbow stop and turn around, but saw he was no where in sight. She did heard a whistle tune in the air. Rainbow look around confuse, just who was that pony? She shook her head and walk away wondering who that unicorn was. After walking for a while Rainbow heard the sound of something cutting. She had one guess who that was. She walk into a clearing to see Cut Stallion throwing his Rolling Cutter at trees to practice his attack. Then he notices Rainbow. "Mega Mare. I see you made it." He said. "Getting to you wasn't hard. The walk through the forest was nice." She said crossing her hooves and closing her eyes. "I made it easy for you. The others won't be so nice. Though Fire Stallion be acting strange." Cut Stallion said then whisper to himself. "Well, If you surrender, we can skip the fight. Being robot help see things differently then I have before." Rainbow said opening her eyes. "Sorry Mega Mare, but that won't happen, You are maybe a robot. But you don't know a thing about being one." Cut Stallion said and got ready to fight. Rainbow sigh and uncross her hooves. "I really did not want it to come to this. I'm sorry Cut Stallion." Rainbow said. "Hm, I heard you were different then this, what a matter? Being a robot got you down?" Cut Stallion ask and then threw his Rolling Cutter at her. Rainbow roll out of the way and return fire. Cut Stallion raise his hooves to block the shots, but he didn't know that what Rainbow wanted. She rush up and threw an upper cut like she did before knock him away a bit. Rainbow then ran up and threw another punch that knock Cut Stallion back a little. He was caught off guard when Rainbow kick him. He spin around then fire his Rolling Cutter which Rainbow dodge. "Miss me!" She said smiling started to feel like her old self. However she didn't see them come back and was hit. "Did I?" Cut Stallion ask mimicking Rainbow's smile. Rainbow jump back up and fire her buster once more. Cut Stallion block the attack again and was thinking Rainbow was going for another uppercut and flip away. Only to see Rainbow standing and raising her buster. She fire again and hit Cut Stallion. He grab his hoof as sparks come from it. Rainbow smile again before she knew the only way to stop him. "Cut Stallion, let's stop this fight. I don't want to destroy you." Rainbow said lowering her buster. "Don't waste your time! You're just a robot like us! You have to follow your program!" Cut Stallion said. "I don't have a program! I doing what I think is right." Rainbow told him and was caught off guard by a Rolling Cutter. Rainbow was knock to a tree and close her eyes as she grab her side in pain. She open one eye to see another Rolling Cutter heading for her. Putting her boots to work Rainbow jump in the air and try to flip her wings. But instead of flying, she floated back to the ground softly. What? I can't fly? Wait a minute...Light said this was a prototype! That means it not done yet! So no flying in this armor, only gliding and floating, got it! Rainbow thought and raise her buster again. She fire a fire shots, making Cut Stallion raise his hooves again and once Rainbow stop and Cut Stallion ran to her and threw a punch. Rainbow saw it coming and block it before returning her own punch knocking him back. Rainbow fire her buster again and again trying to give lots of space between them. Once he was far away enough and charge after him. Cut Stallion land on his hooves and threw his Rolling Cutter at her. Rainbow dodge by moving side-to-side, but reach him and threw another punch that Cut Stallion block with both hooves. "I must say Mega Mare. You are good, for a robot." Cut Stallion said. "Two thing Cut Stallion, One I'm not a robot, I'm an pony.", Rainbow told him before getting a sad look on her face, "and two, I'm sorry." Cut Stallion was confuse until he feel something force it way through his body. He step away and look down to see his citrus buzzing. He look up at Mega Mare and knew what happen. By using both hooves to block her punch, he left himself open for her buster attack. He was going easy on her to test her and now notices that was his down fall. And the look in her eyes told him that she was not please with what she did. Cut Stallion felt his systems shutdown and he fell to the ground casing dust to raise from it. Rainbow sigh and knee down. She look at Cut Stallion and sigh again. "Normally I would make a joke and say something like 'Rest in pieces', but I haven't been myself since I was reborn.", Rainbow said, "I am a pony and a robot. But I keep seeing myself as a robot when I'm trying to a pony like I always was. Good-bye my friend." As Rainbow soon say that, she place her hoof on Cut Stallion body. No sooner then she did, a glow appear around her. Coping Weapon.... Rainbow snap her eyes open and stood up. She watch as her dark blue on her turn grey and the light blue turn white. Rainbow was surprise. Weapon Get! You got Rolling Cutter! Rolling Cutter? Is this the Weapon Copy ability? Rainbow thought and decide to try it out. She raise her buster and shot out a blades that cut like scissors and spin around. She caught it when it coming back to her and she look in surprise. Heh, I got to say, that pretty cool. Rainbow thought smiling a little. She look down at Cut Stallion and pick up him up. She knew Light will be glad to see Cut Stallion and hopeful fix him. Rainbow teleported away unknowing she was being watch by the Grey/red Unicorn and by Dr. Mane-tic. In Dr. Mane-tic lab, she growl at Rainbow defeating Cut Stallion and somehow getting his weapon. She reach over her controls and contact the rest of the Robot Masters. "Masters! This Mega Mare just defeated Cut Stallion! When you face her don't take her lightly!" She order. "It not a problem, I can crush her in one punch." Guts Stallion said proudly. "She won't stop me. After all, I'm the strongest." Elec Stallion said let his electric lose a little. "She sounds really tough. Stand your ground Soldier!" Ice Stallion said acting scare at first then having an sudden change in person. "Heh, If she comes after me. She in for a big boom." Bomb Stallion said laughing. "Something tells me we don't want to underestimate her. She was born a pony unlike us." Fire Stallion said as he lead on a building watching ponies walk by. "Fire Stallion is correct, Me and Light rebuild her ever well, however, I never got a chance to study her body. But no matter, keep up on what your doing and don't go easy on her!" Dr. Mane-tic order again and shut the connection. Fire Stallion close his eyes and give a small, 'hm' before opening and looking in the sky. Mega Mare...I got questions for you and you better still alive until there. He thought.
