//------------------------------// // Sonic X Machina! // Story: My Little Pony: Sonic Gen. Underground // by Jake Witt //------------------------------// Alternate Name: Its No Use! Its morning in the town of Ponyville! Well, it would be if somebody in the royal garden didn't find Lancelot and Jet. I'd rather get a running start then take the train like mini me and the others. I would've had time for cereal, but no- Wait, was that Mighty back there? Probably not. Where was I? Oh yeah. Lancelot. Everybody remembers Shadow, right? I wouldn't either for how old he is. He looks like me, but with tan skin and black quills with red highlights. Heh. And he calls me a faker, he might be wearing a wig. Anyway, imagine him in some bad ass armor. Now turn the clock back to medieval times and you get Lancelot. Jet is a green Hawk on a hover board with an ancient ring on his wrist, giving him gravity powers. He part of that race, called the Babylon Rougues and claims to be the "Legendary Wind Master". Get ready, you're about to witness Knight of the Wind vs Legendary Wind Master! Prepare your bits and gold rings, I'm betting my win! "My lord, I must inform you that I am ready for battle." Caliburn then followed the statement with little pause before, "Though, on the contrary, diplomacy comes first!" I was too focused on Caliburn to see a frozen body trip me. From the ground, the statue woke up and standing before us with his leg out and crossed arms was non other than Silver the future Hedgehog... or is it past? I mean Equestria is the far future, farther than Silver's time. Silver is a white hedgehog with telekinesis and quills styled to look like a star, but instead it looks like pot. There's a rumor circling that he grows the stuff, but I doubt you can plant anything on a burning planet... No! No! Get that thought out, Sonic! Caliburn jumped in his sheath, "Oh my god, its Sir Galahad!" Silver smirked, "Nah man. He's my ancestor! Anyway, back to the Iblis Trigger..." "Oh, Archie, not this again!" Sonic's eyes suddenly widened, "How do I even remember that adventure?!" "You cant deny it," he gave Sonic a glare. "Its no use!" "Ah! Ah! He said it! Oh, wait," I noticed my feet levitating off the ground as he tossed my into an oncoming train, I got up to see the gang looking out the window. Deus Ex Machina, anyone? Amy ran over to check on me, noticing no glass in me... nor was there a shard on the ground, but the window is still broken. I looked up from my spot, "Hey guys! If you remember Silver... he's here." From above a voice called to Sonic, "You cant hide forever! Its no use!" Pinkie held her head in her hooves, "Dude, we get the reference! Stop drilling that, Luna awful, game into our heads!!!" Before my family could ask, everypony on the train responded in near perfect unison, "It's Pinkie Pie, don't question it." Well, sounds like she gets around. Silver flew through the window I destroyed, landing at my feet as civilians ran to other train cars. Twilight's horn was ingulfed in a blue aura as Silver's hands had a pink aura covering them. Silver shook his hands, "Let me go!" Twilight smirked, "I doubt you would do the same, but if either of us tried to escape..." "Its no use..." Twilight clapped her hooves together, "Exactly! Now talk this out or else non of us can use our magic." "What magic?" A little later. When we arrived in the garden Jet held Lancelot in the air. In his shrill bird voice he said, "It no use trying to break free Sir Lancelot or whatever you call yourself!" "Dang it Jet! We just stopped Silver from saying that!" Pinkie complained with crossed hooves and a pout. Apple Jack and Fluttershy slowly closed in on the bird with the farmer replying, "Don't question how she knows your name." "Why? Because I read Celestia's letter?" Pinkie asked innocently. "Wait, how does she know their names? Plot holes... Also where's Amy?" AJ lifted her hoof to her face. Rainbow and the Hedgehogs (OMG! Band name!) got in a fighting stance with Caliburn in hand and Silver on their side. Twilight readied her magic as gems and rocks surrounded Rarity and the Little Rex staring at her... Little Rex? "OMG its one of Dark Gaia's minions!" Pinkie exclaimed as Caliburn impaled the dark creature. Following the appearance of that Rex, an army of Little Rexes and the bigger and stronger Red Rexes leaped from a cloud of dark magic. From above Tails looked at both the army and a familiar fighter jet in the distance. Is that the X Tornado?! I may hate that world, but not that plane. As Sonic homed and stabbed the minions, he had air for small talk, "How are these guys even here? Its day time and the emeralds have power!" Pinkie was stuffing a few Rexs in her party canon, "The author's explanation is dark magic and 'a no robots yet rule'. Also its because they're cool." "If you're talking about Sega Archie, then we're slightly screwed over." Sonic commented, tornado slashing the Rexes tossed by the telekinetics and Jet's gravity ring. "No. I mean Jake Witt!" she replied, stuffing a Rex Sir Lancelot was chasing into her canon. "Who?" Sonic asked, his words hurting a boy in an alien world. Pinkie tilted her head with a frown, "Who's who?" Caliburn piped up from his third Rex beheading, "No questions, sire!" Just he said that, Pink's canon fired a beam of energy, far too big for the canon. When most of the Rex minions died, Nightmares appeared (not the bad dream kind) with one getting a free punch at Apple Jack and Little Sonic. The ground shook as Manic opened the ground below their feet, causing the minions to fall into the abyss. Twilight flew over to the dark magic cloud and destroyed it, revealing Luna within, gasping for air. As the ground closed Luna fell to the ground and had to be held up, "I thank thee..." she looked around, noting more than just ponies were here. There were antro Hedgehogs, knight hedgehog, fox, and bird with colors that could be odd, if she wasn't used to the modern pony color pallet. Twilight took out a clipboard, "OK everyone! Roll call!" Manic kicked a patch of grass, "Don't do it! I'm already hurting grass!" "Manic, Sonia, Sonic 1 raise your hand. Good. Sonic 2 and Caliburn, Tails -who has a huge metal thing with metal legs- anyway," as she called names by chronological order as we responded, she stopped to add three names to the list, "Back to business. Amy! Amy! Amy?" Pinkie shrugged, "I didn't see bestie number 50143 get off the train with us." She then started flapping her front legs, "I saw a shiny Sonic with green wings, though! He looked nice and gave me a sugar cube!" Apple Jack looked to her cousin, "Are ya serious?!" "Darling, out of all the stories we've heard last night... um... are you sure that wasn't-" "Pinkie Pie! You just let one of our enemies take Amy!" [That was easier than I thought!] Metal bleeped. Amy wouldn't awaken nor understand our language, even if she tried. Bleeping was the only way I could talk to Nichole without spies listening in. [Look, we promised the pony that we would return her. How long would it take?] [Meh. About a month give or take.] [Give or take?] Nichole parroted, almost setting off a car alarm sound. [She gives her love to the bugs before I take her home in a month. Or else I will serve Sonic for how long I delay.] [You might also want to watch for that pony.] [Sure...]
