//------------------------------// // New Wolf Master and Jungle Master // Story: Pony Rangers Jungle Fury // by Shazam 25 //------------------------------// Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, And Scootaloo were having a great time. Apple Bloom was reading the Ponyville newspaper for anything that had them in a article, Sweetie Belle was eating her cupcake that she bought at Sugarcube corner with the money she had saved while she had done chores around her sister's house, and Scootaloo was finishing her speech for the Rainbow Dash Fan Club. She couldn't believe that her number one idol had taught her everything about her Jungle chucks. Apple Bloom was browsing through the jokes when something caught her eye. "Girls, listen to this." She said to her friends. Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo looked at her. "What is it, Apple Bloom?" Sweetie Belle asked. "The Ponyville newspaper has something that ya’ll might want to hear." Apple Bloom replied back as she looked at the article again. She saw a picture of Shining Armor above the article and show them. "It says here: 'Shining Armor, the captain of Princess Celestia's Royal guard, will come to Ponyville on Monday at 3 p.m. at the train station.'." Scootaloo read as the other girls were listening. "Monday! That's tomorrow!" Sweetie Belle yelled as she grabbed the paper from Apple Bloom. "What is the big deal about this Sweetie Belle?" Scootaloo asked. "WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL?! I'll tell you what the big deal is!" Sweetie Belle screamed at her friend as she quickly shut all the windows and the door of the club house. "Sweetie Belle, What in the hay are ya-" Apple Bloom was about to say before she was cut off by Sweetie Belle. "Do you think that for one second that HE could be the wolf master's student?!" Sweetie Belle asked Scootaloo and Apple Bloom. Now, this stumped Scootaloo. "Well..Heh..I haven't gave it much thought." She replied sheepishly. "You know, Ah think Sweetie is on to something here." Apple Bloom told the others her thoughts. "I guess you guys do have a point." Scootaloo sighed, hating to say that she had been defeated, and not just the monsters that they had faced together when they became Pony Rangers, by her friends. "Then it is settled then. Tomorrow we introduce Shining Armor to the town." Sweetie Belle said as the other two nods. The next day, at the train station. "Ugh! Where is he?!" Scootaloo asked, more like yelling, to her friends. "Now Scoots, Ah'm no time expert, but Ah think the article said that he would come to Ponyville at 3 p.m." Apple Bloom remind her. "And it is only 2:50." Sweetie Belle added on to Apple Bloom’s comment. "I know, but this is taking forever!" Scootaloo whined as she sat down, her fore-hoofs crossed. The Cutie Mark Crusaders had asked Twilight if the can show Shining Armor around Ponyville. Of course, Twilight, couldn't refuse. She agreed to this as long, as they just treat him like a normal pony. They waited ever since 2 p.m. at the train station for him. "Hmm.." Sweetie Belle said as she thought. That's weird. Joi-Shi hasn't attacked today. I wonder what he is planning. She thought while waiting. "What is it Sweetie Belle?" Apple Bloom asked. "Hmm? Oh, Nothing, Apple Bloom." Sweetie Belle answered. Back at Joi-Shi’s castle. "Joi-Shi, my lord, the Rangers are getting stronger as we speak." Camion said. "I know Camion, that is why I have this." Joi-shi cackled as a monster with a head and tail of a arapaima and two fin-like arms walked in the throne room. "This is Aradon. With the Spirit of the Arapaima." Joi-shi said. "You always pick the best monsters for the job, my lord." Camion said, trying to impress Joi-Shi. "Camion, lead Aradon to the village and see to it that the Rangers don't interrupt our plans again." Joi-Shi growled. Camion, scared that his lord might hurt him, or send him to the underworld, agreed and said, "Yes...My lord." with a bow. Camion left with Aradon while Joi-Shi said, "Enjoy this day, Rangers. For this is your last. From this moment forth, I will rule forever." He cackled as the doors to his throne room closed. Back at the train station. As Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom watched Scootaloo pace around the train station, Aradon made his way to Ponyville, with some help from Camion. "Alright Aradon, destroy the village and the Pony Rangers!" Camion said, evilly. "Right." He replied as he stomped towards the town hall and destroyed it using his fins like they were knifes. Ponies near the monster screamed and galloped in different directions. The Cutie Mark Crusaders took notice to the explosions and screams from Ponyville. "Come on y'all, we got to save Ponyville!" Apple Bloom said, as they raced off to the town. The other fillies nodded to each other and, together, went to save Ponyville. "Gotta love this destruction!" Aradon chuckled. "Hey! Fish-Face!" A voice shouted. With one swift move, a figure knocked over Aradon. "Hey! Who do you think you are ruining the Master's plan?!" Aradon growled, pushing himself up from the ground. "We are!" another voice said, a southern accent. Aradon looked at three fillies. He laughed at them and said, "What? Three little fillies who don't have their cutie marks yet? How stupid! Now, run along. I have a town and the pony rangers to destroy." He turned around and was about to continue destroying Ponyville when he heard, "Jungle Beast, Spirit Unleash!" Aradon then turn around to see that the three fillies were actually the Pony Rangers. "So how stupid are we now?" The red pony ranger asked. Aradon stare at them dumbfounded for a second before shaking it off. "I will destroy you!" Aradon growled as he charged the rangers. The charge caught all three of them off guard and they were unable to block or counter in time as Aradon held his fins out and cut through the rangers, sparks flying in all directions and knocking them to the ground. "Is that the best you can do?" Asked the yellow one, struggling to get up. "You haven't seen my true power!" Aradon shouted as a black and dark purple surround him. "Chaos missiles!" He shouted and fired missiles at them. Explosions appear around them and knock them down again, except for Jungle Red, who said, “Girls, I have an idea!” She then pulled out her Jungle Chucks and twirled them around her, every two seconds sending out a wave of energy, swinging one last time toward Aradon. As she did, an energy wave went straight towards him. However, he just turned his fins into a shield, deflecting an attack that sent the blast right back towards Jungle Red, knocking her down. None of them notices during the battle that the train pull into the station, and a white stallion got out and saw them. Are those the ones that I was told about? How are they full grown mares? He thought before getting close. "HAHAHAHA!" Aradon laugh as the rangers try to stand up. "Gah! This one’s stronger than the other ones." Scootaloo said. "We still have to stop him!" Apple Bloom said. Then out of the blue, a mist of purple, in the shape of a wolf, attacked Aradon. The wolf grabbed him in its jaws and shook him around like he was a toy for him to play with. "Come on!" A voice shouted to the rangers. The rangers didn't know what to do, but they knew that Aradon was too much for them to handle right now, and decided that it was best to retreat. When the purple mist disappeared, the Rangers were gone. Frustrated with himself, Aradon growled and turned and walked to the palace, deciding to tell his master what has happened. Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom and Scootaloo were back at the Clubhouse, sore from all the hits Aradon landed on them. They were also un-morph. "Oh! My hoofs are so sore." Scootaloo moaned. "At least it didn't destroy us, like it wanted to." Sweetie Belle said. "You three fillies are lucky I was there." A voice said. They turned around to see a White unicorn stallion with a blue shield with a six-pointed star as his cutie-mark. He looked awfully like- "Shining Armor!!" Apple Bloom shouted, as she bowed in front of the white stallion. The others looked at her and bowed quickly at Shining Armor. Shining chuckled as the three fillies gathered up themselves. "I have to ask. What are you doing in Ponyville?" Sweetie Belle ask him. "Master Phant sent me here to help you guys against Joi-shi. He had contacted me through a dream" He answered. "Master Phant?" All three of them asked at once. "Master Phant has the spirit of the Elephant. He too was part of the battle against Joi-shi." Shining Armor explained. This got Sweetie Belle thinking. If we can't defeat Aradon, maybe Master Phant can. she thought. Sweetie Belle decided to visit Master Phant and see what he can do about Joi-shi. "Girls, and stallion, I'm leaving." Sweetie Belle said as she trotted to the door of the clubhouse. "Where are you going?" Scootaloo asked. "Over to Fluttershy's Cottage. She might have something about Master Phant." Sweetie Belle answered as she put her saddlebag on and walked out of the clubhouse leaving two confused fillies and one confused stallion behind. "So what can you tell me about your powers so far?" Shining ask them after shaking it off. Sweetie Belle walked over to Fluttershy's Cottage thinking about what Shining Armor said. She wasn't sure how she was going to explain to Fluttershy about Master Phant. Nervously, she reach her hoof up and knock on the door. The door opened very slowly to reveal a butterscotch Pegasus pony with a pink mane with three butterflies as her cutie mark. "Hello? Oh, Hi Sweetie Belle. Come on in." The shy pony said as Sweetie Belle walked in. "Fluttershy, do you know who Master Phant is?" Sweetie Belle asked, but then quickly cover her mouth with her hoofs. "No, who are you talking about?" Fluttershy asked. Sweetie Belle knew there was no way to get out of this. Besides, she felt like her animal spirit was telling her to tell Fluttershy the truth. "Ok, but you might want to sit down for this." Sweetie Belle answered as she and Fluttershy sat on the couch. Sweetie Belle then started to tell Fluttershy about her being a pony ranger, which surprised Fluttershy, and her adventures and the new monster, Aradon. "...And that is why I need to find Master Phant." Sweetie Belle finished, putting on a nervous smile. "I never knew your were a pony ranger." Fluttershy said as she looked at Sweetie Belle. Fluttershy thought she could feel something familiar from the Yellow Jungle Fury Ranger, but she never guessed it was Sweetie Belle. "Will you help me? Please?" Sweetie Belle asked Fluttershy. Fluttershy thought for a moment. Finally, what seemed like hours, Fluttershy agreed to help Sweetie Belle to find Master Phant. "Oh thanks! And please don't tell Rarity yet. I don't want her to know until I tell her." Sweetie Belle said. "Ok, I won't tell." Fluttershy said, knowing about the ranger code. After all, she was a ranger herself. Fluttershy and Sweetie Belle decided to pack a few thing for the journey like sandwiches, coats, boots, a compass and a map. "Okay, got the map. Sweetie Belle? Are you ready?" Fluttershy asked Sweetie Belle, as she packed all the things they might need. "Ready! Let's go." Sweetie Belle replied. "Now Angel, watch over the house and the other animals and we'll be back before you know it." Fluttershy told her pet. "Ok, where to?" Sweetie Belle asked as Fluttershy locked the door to her cottage. "Um, I thought that you have the map." Fluttershy asked her. "Oh yea." Sweetie Belle remembered as she dig through her saddlebag to find a map. Finding it, she open it. "So the map and my spirit animal’s instincts tell me that Master Phant's temple is in the Everfree forest." Sweetie Belle explained to Fluttershy, as they walked on the path to the Everfree forest. "The Everfree Forest? Ok." Fluttershy said. This surprised Sweetie Belle. Fluttershy lives close to the Everfree Forest, but not once has she gone in there (not related to the actual TV show). "You’re not scared of going in?" Sweetie Belle asked. "Of course not. Now are you coming?" Fluttershy asked, trotting up ahead. "Hey! No fair!" She yelled playfully, as they galloped through the forest. Back at Joi-Shi’s castle, Aradon was thrown against the wall by an invisible force. He reported his attack to Joi-Shi, who was not happy. "You Idiot!" Joi-shi yelled at him as he walked down from his throne. "But master-" Aradon tried to explain. "You have failed me." Joi-shi growled. "Please, Master! I will destroy the rangers! Please give me another chance! I was attacked by the wolf spirit, which is why I was unable to destroy the rangers." Aradon pleaded and then reasoned with his master. Joi-shi took a minute to think and replied, "Very well, but if you fail me I will take you to the underworld. And to make sure you don't, I'll send Camion with you," he spat with anger before walking to his throne. Aradon picked himself up and walked out of the throne room, not wanting to return until he has destroy the Rangers. "Why is it so hard to be a lead villain?" Joi-Shi asked himself before the doors to the throne room closed. Camion then appeared and said, “Did I do well in punishing him, master?” Joi-Shi replied, “Yes, now go and do whatever you want before the attack starts.” “Alright,” Camion replied, vanishing to… Wait… Not so fast Camion! *Teleports Camion to preparing the attack so he can’t change the story.* “Curse you and your power of typing, author…” Camion complained, before he forgets being part of a fanfiction and obeys the author. In the Everfree Forest... "Fluttershy, are we there yet?" Sweetie Belle ask, feeling like it been hours since they came in. "No, we can't seem to find it. Maybe you should let your animal spirit guide you." Fluttershy answer. “OK, I'll try." Sweetie said and closed her eyes. Fluttershy watched in surprise as a yellow mist appear around Sweetie Belle, and she soon saw the Cheetah Spirit. It looked around before letting out a growl, pointing the way they need to go. It disappeared as Sweetie opened her eyes. “C’mon, Fluttershy!” Sweetie said as she ran towards where her spirit told her to go. Eventually, they found a temple that clearly was made to honor elephants. A little bit of the way in, they came to a trial. Sweetie looked at a sign nearby and read aloud, “To have a chance to receive an elephant’s might, don’t use your horn or wings in this fight. But to succeed and be strong, you must decide which choice is the greater wrong. For to keep everyone standing tall, you must sacrifice something small.” “What does that mean?” Fluttershy asked before noticing that a filly had appeared. With the filly, though, there was fire on the other side of the room that was quickly advancing toward the filly. Sweetie Belle noticed as well and said, “Oh no, I have to save him!” She was about to head over there when she noticed some small objects. They said they were explosive, and Sweetie realized what she had to do. As fast as she could, she got the cans out of the room, but stopped when she came back to the entrance of the room. The little filly was nowhere to be seen, and the flames were gone as well. A voice boomed throughout the room, saying, “The young one has passed. Only she may enter.” Part of the wall then moved aside, revealing a door. Sweetie Belle looked at Fluttershy, then said, “Thanks for helping me get here.” The two hugged, and Sweetie belle went in. Meanwhile, back in Ponyville, Scootaloo and Apple Bloom were fighting off the Rinshis. Without Sweetie Belle, they weren't doing as well, but they still managed to fend off the Rinshis. Aradon then appeared, and they morphed. They quickly got their weapons out, and they kept trying to hit Aradon, but he deflected every attack. Then, Apple Bloom put some electricity into her Jungle Tonfas, which stunned Aradon for a second. Scootaloo said, “I hope Jungle Yellow gets back soon, we need her help to win this fight.” Apple Bloom agreed, saying, “She better get Master Phant’s help, too.” In the temple, Sweetie Belle entered the room, where a very old stallion was waiting. After the door closed behind her, she took a good look at the stallion. His mane was green, but he had no cutie mark. It looked as if any second his body would collapse, and he seemed misty and solid at the same time. As Sweetie Belle approached him, he said, “I know why you have come here. You seek my help against Aradon. And you will not receive it.” Sweetie Belle was shocked and asked, “But why? Joi-Shi will rule the world if you don’t help us! Give me a good reason for not helping us against Joi-Shi!” Master Phant replied, “I am weak, and my elephant spirit has grown old with me. I need somepony young with the quick but wise mind to bring him back to his young years again.” As if on cue, the elephant spirit appeared, looking very old and about to die. After it appeared, Master Phant continued, “Yes, the sign for the trial said you may have a chance for the help of the elephant. And, you managed to pass the trial. However, you will not receive my help because you don’t have a good reason for it.” Sweetie pondered over this, and replied, “If you help us in the fight against Joi-Shi, then I will do everything I can for your elephant spirit.” Her morpher then went off, and she heard Scootaloo say, “Sweetie Belle! We need your help against Aradon! We found a way to stun him, but only for a second!” “Master Phant, I hope you think about what I said. I have to go to Ponyville and help my friends, but we could use your help against Joi-Shi.” She then left the temple with Fluttershy, leaving Master Phant pondering what he should do. Back in Ponyville, Sweetie Belle arrived at the fight morphed, but she was attacked by some Rinshis. She shouted “Get out of the way!” and went cheetah on the Rinshi. Once they were gone, she got to Aradon, only to see him attack her friends. Aradon attacked with the chaos missiles again, knocking down Scootaloo and Apple Bloom. “Hey, Fish-Face! Leave my friends alone!” Sweetie Belle shouted at Aradon. Aradon heard her and said, “You gonna make me?” Sweetie Belle replied by attacking him with her Jungle Bo, using every attack she knew, while Aradon blocked most of them. She then swung her Bo under his guard, hitting him and forcing him to drop his guard. She then charged electricity into her Jungle Bo and hitting him in the head, electrocuting him a little bit. Camion suddenly appeared and said, “Aradon! Joi-Shi feels you need some help, so take the Scale Armor!” Aradon then got an armor that looked a little bit like it was made from hardened fish scales. No matter what Sweetie Belle did, she couldn't break the armor, while Aradon kept slashing her down. Right as Sweetie Belle was knocked down again, Aradon summoned a dark and purple energy field and unleashed his chaos missiles. Right before Sweetie Belle was hit though, she did what nobody thought she would do. She twirled her Jungle Bo in front of her very quickly and somewhat protected herself from all of the missiles by making her Jungle Bo into a fan. As she did so, the missiles were slowed down and eventually sent back to Aradon, cracking a little bit of his armor. Master Phant then arrived and said to Sweetie Belle, “You have given me a reason to help you. Take the Elephant Spirit, and along with it, a new weapon!” With those words, the Elephant Spirit appeared and went inside Sweetie Belle, while the Cheetah Spirit gladly welcomed the Elephant Spirit. Sweetie Belle’s Jungle Bo disappeared, and she received the Jungle Mace, a ball like hammer attached to a long chain with a handle at the end of the chain in it place. "Thanks, Master Phant." She said before holding it up. "I call on the Spirit of the Elephant!" Sweetie Belle shouted as the Spirit of the Elephant appear, now younger then before. She started using it with the help of the Elephant Spirit, and they were able to break Aradon’s armor. "What?! How?!" He shouted. "Jungle Mace!" Sweetie shouted, dealt the finishing blow by twirling around really fast, so she was a spinning whirlwind with a hammer, making Aradon explode. Scootaloo and Apple Bloom ran over to Sweetie Belle, congratulating her on her new weapon and animal spirit. However, Camion appeared and brought Aradon back in a giant state. He began to try and stomp on the rangers before they brought out the Jungle Pride Megazord. The rangers kept attacking Aradon, but he just kept shrugging it off. "Darn! He even stronger then before. Our Animal spirits can't keep this up." Scootaloo said as they kept attacking him. Master Phant then appeared inside the Jungle Pride Megazord and said, “Sweetie Belle! Along with mastering your new weapon is a new megazord! Combine the elephant spirit to the megazord for the Elephant Pride Megazord!” "Right, Come all Girls, follow me." Sweetie said. "Calling on the Spirit of the Elephant!" They shouted and the Megazord mimic them The elephant spirit appear and combine with the Megazord, most of the elephant went to the shoulders of the megazord, with a small part going on the head and the trunk going on the right arm to be the jungle mace. Camion was greatly surprise. He knew only one Master that has that Animal. This was not good. Sweetie Belle and the others worked together with the Jungle Mace Getting hit in on him. "Time to throw this fish back into the water, Sweetie Belle, show us what to do." Scootaloo said. "Gladly!" She said. "Spin Attack! Jungle Mace!" They shouted following Sweetie. Aradon was too shock to see the same spin attack the was use on him before to dodge. It destroy him once and for all. The Rangers cheers as they have the Megazord relax. "Pony Rangers, Jungle Fury." They said as the ponies cheer. Back at Rarity/Sweetie Belle’s house, Sweetie Belle walked into her room to find Master Phant waiting for her there, and he simply said, “You have done well, but be prepared for anything to happen.” He then vanished, and Sweetie Belle suddenly morphed. However, the suit was slightly different, with hints of green in some areas. She looked over it and was happy with it, then de-morphed, relaxing after the tough battle she had won. In Joi-Shi’s palace, the stallion of the house was very upset. “He should have won! If it wasn't for that stupid elephant spirit, the world would be mine!” Camion just stayed invisible, hoping his master wouldn't notice him and use all his anger on him.
