Chapter 10 Aragon Swamp
In the Swamp, at the Crash Landed Ship's boat...
"Ooh..." moaned Franciscolt.
"Are you okay, Captain?" asked Mr. Toomai.
"My wings... I think they're broken!" said Franciscolt.
"We have to find a better place! They're coming!" said Rainbow Dash as she's looking up in the sky and saw the Ship is sailing around.
"But first... the Map!" said Franciscolt and Rainbow Dash's grab it out from her pocket. Then, it's float into the air and turn back into Rupa who's laugh back at her.
"Rupa! Where is the Map?" asked Rainbow Dash and Rupa's transform himself into a pile of rope and the Map and show it is still hiding in it.
"What?! Are you serious?! It's still on the Ship?!" asked Rainbow Dash and Rupa's nod to her as yes.
"Rainbow... I need you..." said Franciscolt and he's hand over her a short laser musket.
"Go around... find the better shelter," said Franciscolt and she's nod to him and go out to find the better shelter.
Later, in the Swamp, Rainbow Dash flying and looking around herself. She is amaze by the blue, pink, purple and violet color of
both flowers and trees of the swamp and also amazed by that they are height at 300 ft. tall or some even more. The canopy are almost block the light of Blue Sun.
She's still flying straight into the strange and unknown swamp. Then, she's encounter with the elephant-sized wingless Tusked Cricket. But she has no reason to be scare at it because it's a plant-eater.
She's look up above her and see a group of eagle-sized Flying Spiders are flying above her. Then, a very large grayish snake-like amphibian creature jumps out from the water and eat one of the Flying Spiders in one bite.
She's quickly fly away before more dangerous thing will happen. She's exhaust from the fright and slowly landed on the ground do walking instead.
Then, she's sit down and nearby her is a 2 ft. tall little emu-like reptilian creature eating a blue leaf.
Then, a big claw-like jaw appear from the right side of it and crush its to dead. Rainbow Dash goes shock and quickly fly up. Then, the owner of the jaw-like claw come out from the grove
and revealed to be a lion-sized land-living green-skinned Larva Dragonfly. She's seeing the nasty carnivore are eating its prey in the most disgusting way she had ever seen.
"Geez... this swamp is a very fierce place. It can even match with already grown Dragon back in Equestria," said Rainbow Dash and then she's got a name for this swamp in her head.
"Hmm... this should be a nice name. As this swamp is fierce as a Dragon in Equestria. I should name this swamp as Aragon Swamp," said Rainbow Dash and she's continue to flying to find the shelter.
For 15 minutes, she still see no what can be shelter for her. Then, she's heard a cracking noise. She's know now she is being followed. She's raise her short laser musket and fly to the rock near the swamp.
She's aim her short laser musket to the rock and prepare to fire. Then, a messed up Joining jumps out from nowhere and hug her.
"AAAAHHHHHH!" screamed Rainbow Dash.
"Finally! There is a life form had come to rescue me!" said Humanoid Joining.
"Hey! Let go of me!" said Rainbow Dash.
"Oh! Sorry! Sorry! I was just... umm... got drop down at here for a very long time! IT'S MAKING ME ABSOLUTELY CRAZY!" said Humanoid Joining.
"Wow! Wow! Wow! Hold on!" said Rainbow Dash and she's get the crazed robot out from her.
"Oh yeah! Forgot my manners, I am... umm... I'm... uhh..." said Humanoid Joining and Rupa who's sitting on shoulder of Rainbow Dash transforms into that crazed Joining and with a bird out of head.
"Oh! I'm remember now! I'm Nevigeta!" said Nevigeta.
"I'm Rainbow Dash," said Rainbow Dash.
"Oh it's good to meet you Dashie!" said Nevigeta.
"It's Rainbow Dash!" said Rainbow Dash.
"Whatever," said Nevigeta.
"I don't have time to talk with you. I must go to find a shelter from the pirates!" said Rainbow Dash.
"Pirates! I hate that word! Don't say it to me!" said Nevigeta as Rainbow Dash is walking away from him.
"I remembered a pirate enemy of Captain Rann! Since the Battle of Na'e Ajagara, he become absolute cruel guy!" said Nevigeta and Rainbow Dash quickly turns to look at him.
"Wait! You know Captain Rann?" asked Rainbow Dash
"He must be the kind of guy who can't accept of being lose. But it's his behavior not me. He should know himself better before he will program me to have emotions and my own mind," said Nevigeta.
"So... that is mean you must know about his treasure? You know right? The Loot of the Thousand Worlds!" said Rainbow Dash.
"Well... it's umm... I think..." said Nevigeta and then a pink spark happen on the cables come out from the hole on his head.
"Wait! I remembered it! The treasure is buried at the center... center... of the centroid! There is a big door! That open and close! Open and close! Open and close!
But Captain Rann wants no ones to touch his treasure! I help him AAAAAAAHHHHHH! The file is locking! REBOOT! REBOOT! REBOOT!" said Nevigeta and Rainbow Dash's slap him at face.
"And you are?" asked Nevigeta.
"Nevigeta!" said Rainbow Dash.
"I'm going say Akela," said Nevigeta.
"Nevigeta! Listen! I... have to... go now. Bye," said Rainbow Dash and she's walk away from him.
"Well that's... okay... I'm going to... uhh..." said Nevigeta and he's walk away from her into the swamp. Rainbow Dash looks back at him and quickly have a pity on him.
"Looks if you wanna come you must be quite. Understand?" asked Rainbow Dash.
"Yeah!" said Nevigeta and he's jump to hug Rainbow Dash.
"And you must stop hugging me too!" said Rainbow Dash.
"Be quite and no hug! Understand!" said Nevigeta.
"Now come here! I need your help to-" said Rainbow Dash.
"Well if you don't mind. I would like to come back to my house and fill my energy to full mode," said Nevigeta.
"A house?" asked Rainbow Dash.
"This way." said Nevigeta and he's open the bush and show her his house that is a huge tree at center of the swamp with a hole at center of the tree.
"Nevigeta! I think you're just fixed my problem now," said Rainbow Dash.
Later, at House of Nevigeta...
"Sorry for all this mess. Well you know, not much living beings coming around here," said Nevigeta as Mr. Toomai carrying Franciscolt inside
and slowly drop him at the rock. He's take off his jacket and use it as pillow for his captain.
"So who's want the drink?" asked Nevigeta as he's show them a tray of glasses filled with oil.
"Uhh... no thanks..." said Mr. Toomai.
"Okay... I think'we're safe here," said Rainbow Dash.
"Hey look! There are more friends of you come here!" said Nevigeta as he's pointing to Jacala and his crew.
"Hey all of you! We're here!" said Nevigeta and Jacala and his crew turn to look at him and shooting laser to him.
Rainbow Dash is also shooting back. Both sides are shooting at one another until Jacala called a halt to the fight.
"Hello? Up there! If the Captain don't mind, I would like to speak with Rainy!" said Jacala.
"Going to make a deal to get the Map, I'm sure," said Franciscolt.
"So... they think we have the Map..." said Rainbow Dash and she's walks out to confront who was once being one of her best teachers.
When they meet each other, Rupa quickly fly out from shoulder of Rainbow Dash and goes to snuggle Jacala at cheek.
"AH! Rupa! I'm worried about where you are now," said Jacala as he's sitting on a rock. Then, he's turn to look at Rainbow Dash and see her in mood that very angry.
"Listen, I don't know what did you heard back there. But what I said back there, I didn't mean like that," said Jacala but Rainbow Dash is still remain being angry at him.
"Now listen, if everything go right as I planned. We both can go back as riches as the Nagaraja," said Jacala.
"Really?" asked Rainbow Dash.
"Yes! Don't you trust me?" asked Jacala and he's offer his cyborg hand to her to shake. But Rainbow Dash's reject his offer.
"You... are... really... "awesome"! What about "the very great" you said? Or "shine like a star"? Nice jokes..." said Rainbow Dash.
"Wait! Wait! Hold on! Listen to me Rainy-" said Jacala.
"But you also teach me one thing! "Hold your helm very tightly! No matter what are you confronting at" right?
Fine! I will never let you have any golden bits from MY TREASURE!" shouted Rainbow Dash.
"That treasure is mine! By thunder of Indra!" said Jacala.
"Go find yourself! My surrogate little sis and her friends gave the Map to me! That treasure is mine! By thunder of Zeus!" said Rainbow Dash.
"GRRRR! You're still not good about how to pick who to fight with!" said Jacala and he's get up from rock he's sitting on.
"Fine! If I don't have the map by tomorrow morning, then can't help. I'M GOING TO BRING ALL LASER CANNONS THAT I HAVE HERE AND BLAST YOU ALL TO NARAKA!" shouted Jacala and he's turn his back on her.
"Rupa! Come here!" said Jacala but Rupa is still remain on shoulder of Rainbow Dash.
"NOW!" shouted Jacala and Rupa scares off and quickly hiding behind mane of Rainbow Dash.
"GAH! Idiot!" said Jacala and he's creeping into the water and go back on the shore on the other side.
"Hmm? Amm..." moaned Rupa as he is trying to find the answer why his owner is so aggressive now. Then, he's flying back with Rainbow Dash back into the hole of the huge tree.
