Nucor's Counterattack

by Matthew Stone


'Simply Magnificent!!' The Mightiest Warrior, Super Tajato

    Tails and TJ were nervous like rabbits, just when Cosmos grows stronger to try and make them look pitiful. Tails perks his ears, now sensing the calls of fear coming from other ponies, just when more zombies start to imprison them and lock them in tight cages close to Nucor’s base, to save them for their meal. Tail’s special eyesight then zooms into one of the victims slamming against the bars with the other ponies. He can see one of Applejack’s family members and friends in distress, even BRAEBURN. The undead jackasses now imprisoned the cowboy pony, the one that assisted Tails from a while back. Cosmos smirks at Tails ability to see Braeburn’s demise, also looking down at Applejack fighting in battle.

      “A shame, yet so hilarious.” Cosmos giggles, “We already have our undead lovelies invading his home village of Appleloosa right now.”

       Tails snarls at Cosmos’ insolence. He then grabs his earing, turning one of its gadget dials. TJ looks at him in shock.

      “What are you doing?” TJ asks.

      “I programed a special ability for our earrings to fuse both our bodies together during battle.” Tails tells him, as both of them still float in the air with Cosmos, “We have to fuse now.”

      “But… it’s risky. We might not go back to normal.” TJ warns.

      “It’s better to do that than letting that witch win!” Tails insists.

      TJ sighs, seeing his point of view.

      “Language, foxy.” Cosmos said, overhearing him, I’m already winning, so give it up.”

      “In your dreams.” Tails scowls, turning the earing to its last knob.

      GLEAM!

      Cosmos floats back, having the aura blind her eyes. In that moment, Tails’ and TJ’s souls and bodies disappear, then having their visibility sizzle and fuzz. The two bodies then peacefully collide.

BAM!
Cosmos comes back forward, as she gnaws her teeth to

see whom she’s up against. The foxes’ fusion technique worked, and the whole fox body is an orange kitsune with a samurai outfit. The whole golden gleam around its fur glows, as the fused being starts to speak.

      “I and WE, are TAJATO!” the golden fox roars.

      “So I see.” Cosmos said, impressed, “But what can you do? Appleloosa is now done for by now, as of Manehatten as well.”

      Tajato snarls at her ignorance and meanness.

      “So, should we finish this?” the golden fox asks.

       “Indeed,” Cosmos smirked. “Although I doubt your speed will be enough to take on me.”

    The fused Kitsune smirked. “Oh, that’s not all I have planned. I have one more trick, or two, up my sleeve!”

    He raised his fists into the air. “TA-DA…..GO!!!” he yelled, pulling his fists to the side. He began to clench his teeth as yellow electric volts flashed around his body. His hair grew spiky like lightening bolts, then the fur hairs grew even longer and turned yellow.

    Cosmos laughs, having Tajato confused.

    “Please. You think you’re the ONLY one who can do that?” Cosmos smirks.

    “WHAT?” Tajato gasps.

    Cosmos then has a huge flash beam around her, going through the same process that Tails and TJ gone through. As her body and hair glow yellow, her eyes become rose red. Her fangs expand, as she grins at the golden fused fox.

    “Say hello to the Super Kitsunian 3. I’ve been working on it for quite a while.” she grinned.

    “How is that possible?” Tajato asks, “You hardly had contact with me to know my powers ahead of time. HOW? HOW DID YOU GET THAT POWER?”

    “I just absorbed whatever came out of Celestia, Luna, and Cadence. Obviously I had to take their formations too.” Cosmos smirked, “Oh, and in case if you didn’t know, I drained their energy after making a surprise trap for them in the Crystal Empire.”

    “No…” Tajato whimpers.

    Twilight is down below, and she can hear the discussion going on with the bad and good forms. She can’t believe it either. The villains actually planned this all out real well. Celestia, Luna, and Cadence. All the citizens. What will become of them now?

    Discord even looks up with Fluttershy and Rarity, as they see Cosmos turning into a grotesque silhouette and form of Celestia. The monster laughs, as Pinkie and Applejack look, crying in shock and horror. The zombies launch at them still, as the two friends kept dodging.

      As for Tajato, he’s furious. Real furious. He now want’s revenge…

      Suddenly, Tajato began to shake, engulfed in red lightning. Then, he rose higher up in the sky at full power.

      “Cosmos…you’ll pay for each one of them!” he screamed angrily, charging at her. He repeatedly threw punches at her, but she dodged with every chance she got.

    “STAND STILL SO I CAN ANNIHILATE YOU, DAMMIT!!” he screamed, getting madder by the minute.

    “You’ve got quite a temper. What would Celestia say about that?” Cosmos smirked.

    Tajato decided to calm down, and use his head. Still, he has to fight. Maybe he should keep throwing out his hits, just to distract her.

    “You just keep on flapping your trap while I smack you around like a punching bag.” Tajato snapped, zipping away and forward.

    Cosmos zipped back as well when more punches are throwed. As much as Tajato hates this too, he lets Cosmos hit him back, just so he can lure her into a surprise. Cosmos then has her poisonous wings extend, as they fling around to try and scratch the golden fox, only having him float back to miss.

    “Gee, I sure got some good distance, and in only four seconds! That shape-shifting Slow-Mo isn’t so tough.” Tajato laughed, turning around, only to be grabbed by Cosmos, who raised her hand to his face.

    Tajato scowls at HER surprise move. What to do? Cosmos is now grinning as she strengthens her prisoning grip on his ankles.

    “Bye-bye,” Cosmos grinned evilly as her hooves started to spark. Tajato’s face had terror written all over it.

    “WAH! YOU BITCH!” Tajato screams, “I’M NOT LETTING YOU WIN! NOT WITHOUT A FAIR FIGHT!”

    As the energy blast sent him hurtling through the air, he spins around like a malfunctions mecha machine. Luckily, he managed to stop himself in midair.

    “I suppose I have another tactic in my incredible plan for victory. Heh, heh, heh…” Tajato giggles.

    He struck several poses, left arm up, right arm down, and one left leg forward, while saying these next few words:

    “SUPER…GHOST…KAMIKAZE…ATTACK…!!!”

    He then spat out shadowy silhouettes from behind his back, having something take Cosmos like surprise. It’s a mix of a artistic show and pure battle horror, when Tajato finally manages to create eight ghostly clones of himself.

    “What is this?!” Cosmos demands.

    “Your symbol of defeat.” Tajato grins, “Ghosts, HUDDLE! TACKLE!”

    The ghosts flashed as they were falling stars, and dart towards Cosmos to strike her at her wings to topple her over. Sensing their other attacks, she flies backward to miss the next three attempts. She then flew back a few more directions before flying back up to destroy one ghost with her aura.

    “Doing good.” Tajato admits, creeping up behind her, “But you can do better.”

    Six of his ghosts then kick her on the back, having her pushed back to turn around.

    “YOU’RE A INTERFERING ASS!” Cosmos shrieks.

    “BUT YOU’RE WORSE!” Tajato screams back, “I FIGHT BECAUSE I CRAVE JUSTICE! YOU FIGHT FOR KILLING, SO THAT LEAVES ME WITH ONE OPTION!”

    The ghosts then drive themselves at Cosmos, grabbing onto her and explodes in contact.

    “EAT THIS!” Tajato screams like a child, throwing in rapid punches.

    “DEADLY MACHINEGUN MULTIPUNCH!!!” he yelled while doing so, pummeling Cosmos thoroughly.

    Then, he jumped up, and kicked her in the face, causing an explosion.

    “DYNAMITE KICK-DETONATE!!” he grinned.

      Cosmos floated back a tad bit, and flies at least one hundred miles per hour to try and hit Tajato. The golden fox flies past her to avoid the move, having her hold back to look him in the eyes. She can feel blood drip from her teeth slowly.

      “NONSTOP DIE-DIE BLASTERS!!!” Tajato shouts, as he floated above her and started shooting multiple energy blasts from his gloved hands.

    Tajato then lands on the ground, and moved back from Cosmos. Cosmos lands hard on the ground to her hooves, nearly close to defeat. She was very strong as hell before, but now she’s getting a taste of her own medicine from a hero.

      “You’re ruining my plans!” Cosmos sneers.

      “I’m doing the right thing!” Tajato screams, “NOW, TAKE THIS, AND BEGONE FROM THIS WORLD!! ”

      Then, he cupped his hands and drew them back.

    “SUPER….KA….ME….HA….ME…..HAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!” he screamed, launching an energy blast from his palms, disintegrating Cosmos entirely.

      “NOOOOOOOO!” Cosmos shrieks.

      As Cosmos becomes ash, the cages formed and held up by her magic melt from far away, freeing the mortal pony prisoners that include Braeburn, and also the buffalo Indian tribe that includes Little Strongheart. The free ponies than fight and bloody up the evil zombies for escaping, as Tajato can see in the distance. Soon… the fusion…

      The power starts to wear off as Tails and TJ go back to the ground, going back to their separate bodies. Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, and Applejack who are nearby come over to see if they’re okay. Twilight than hugs Tails at his part of helping her defeat Cosmos.

      “Well, that takes care of that.” Tails grinned, staring out over the horizon of the zombie battle.

      TJ nearly fell over staring at the deep gash from their energy blast, and the large holes from their other energy blasts. The fox cousin also wonders how everypony else is holding up. They still have more fighting to do.

 

      As the battle Ranges, Skull, Fireblaze, Coco, Blade keep fighting Cheese Sandwich in his cannibalistic dinosaur form. Then Skull has the aura glow around him, as he triggers himself to turn into his reaper form at this time. He looks at the monster, wondering if turning into that creature is all a diversion.

      “You don’t even know which attack to begin with.” Skull scoffs.

      Skull was unaware, but Terrence is about to interfere as soon as he evaded from Discord with a surprise camouflage attack. The evil brother needed that time to find and destroy Skull, just like he promised to Nucor. Now that Terrence sees him, his curiosity grows as he sees him turn into a reaper pony. He grins, now knowing what he craves to do.

      Discord, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash then escape the huge fog that Terrence trapped them inside. The three of them then find Skull confronting Cheese in his new form, with Blade, Coco, and Fireblaze by him. Discord then weeps as he sees his brother make the huge glowing aura in his palms.

     “Time for my cue…” Terrence sneers.

      FLAM!

      A giant ray of blue flaming balls are then blasting towards Skull, as he looks up to see the calamity aiming at him.

      “SKULL!” Fluttershy screams.   

      Determined to protect her friend, she flies over quickly to block the attack. It was unsuccessful, as the rays quickly bang up and hit both Fluttershy and Skull. They fall back through the air, having the monster Cheese Sandwich slap the two of them when they near him. Both ponies then fall through the ground, having their heads forced to dig through the hard soil as they slow their landing.
      “GUYS!” Rainbow Dash screams in horror.

      “GOT THEM!” Terrence laughs.

      “DON’T GO NEAR THEM!” Discord screams, flying to his brother.

      As the lord of chaos flies to him, Terrence punches him aside, going towards Fluttershy and Skull then. He floats over them, snickering in delight. He then has his human hand shift into a long machete blade, as it’s connected to his body.

      “Discord’s student, now a weak pile of shit.” Terrence chuckles, “How does it feel?”

      He then raises his blade hand, ready to pierce Fluttershy and Skull with the killing attack. Then, something goes in front of the victims. GARBLE!
      BLANG!

      The stab suddenly makes a fiery wave, pushing Terrence back hard through the air, sending him crashing far away from the heroes. It was good for now, but as the dust clears, Fluttershy and Skull look up to see what happened to Garble after he protected them from the full attack. They’re safe, HE’S STABBED!
      As he bleeds non-stop, his knees bend down, as he topples over to lie down on the ground.

      Spike came over to check on Fluttershy and Skull by coincidence. Then he gasps as he sees what happened to Garble, as do Fluttershy and Skull. Garble is about to make his last breath.

      “GARBLE!” the three of them scream.

      Discord, Rainbow Dash, and Fireblaze then near to him as well, shaking their heads at his severe injury to death.

      “No, Garble…” Spike moans.

      “Why?” Skull asks.

      “Because you’re part of their hope to stop this.” Garble tells him, “I did what I had to do…”

      “No. Don’t leave us…” Spike begs.

      “Keep fighting… and…. win….” Garble sighs, making his last words.

      Discord rattles out a cry, as it was too good to be true. Fireblaze understood the sacrifice to this battle. Garble, the best dragon general… is dead.

      As all the ponies cry, a sudden dark cloud floats over them with evil laughter echoing. Garble is then raised overhead, and Fluttershy knew what’s taking him. She jumped up to try and grab him down, but the dead body was jolted upward to the cloud immediately. The evil face of Nucor then becomes visible to the gang.

      “I’ll take him…” Nucor laughs.

      In the giant cloud, a gap is made to show Garble’s change on top of the heroes. The dark magic is already doing it’s work, as Garble starts to moan. He’s now an undead slave!

      “NO!” Fireblaze screams.

      Terrence suddenly appears through the gap, right by Garble’s body. He must have gotten up from his stuck spot after the attack, just to see the looks on their faces when Garble turns mindlessly evil. He even looks down at Discord and Fluttershy, sticking up his middle finger.

      “I’m sure we’ll enjoy our new toy!” Terrence cackles.

      Nucor then disappears with his new slave, as Terrence looks down at the furious group. The fog clears up, leaving a hint of silence, as echoes of the battle still sound. Rainbow Dash almost couldn’t even make a retorting insult, she’s just sad… sad…

      “Do any of you wish to fight me still?” Terrence demands, “I’m looking forward to kill someone….”

      “I’m… going… to KILL YOU!” Fireblaze suddenly said, “BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU’RE DEALING WITH!”

      Then, the red aura starts to glow around his dragon-like body.

      “What’s this?” Terrence asks.

      Then Fireblaze went into his huge red dragon form, as he builds up his angry energy he needs. Then, he went fast at his speed, as he starts tackling Terrance, beginning to punching him hard. Terrence fights back, grabbing Fireblaze by his wings, and swinging him to have him hit the ground.

      “Now that is dragon rage.” Rainbow Dash admits.

      “I know of it.” Spike agrees, “I had it before, and it wasn’t so good. I just hope Fireblaze survives this.”
