The King Returns

by GodzillaFIM


The fighting, then the return

"Spike! Did you send the letter to Celestia?" Spike gave a nod of satisfaction, well aware of the advancing duo ahead of them."Good. Girls, I have a plan. What we need to do is hold off the two Hydras until Luna and Celestia arrive, then we drive the Hydras, including the ones still in the trees, back into the Everfree. Everypony ready?"

"READY"

"Alright everypony, LETS DO THIS!!"

Twilight and Rarity were charging up their horns, Fluttershy ready to 'Stare' them down, Applejack with her lasso spinning atop her head, Rainbow Dash pounding her hooves together, Spike cowering behind the picnic basket with the CMC as well, and Pinkie pie readying her party cannon. They were just about to charge their attackers, when the princesses arrived.

"Are we too late?"

"LUNA!! CELESTIA!!"

"Spike, hold this." Celestia then levitated the box with the remaining Element of Harmony shards to him. Spike grabbed the box with shaking hands, then clutching it to his chest. Soon the princesses were standing behind the main six, their horns charging up with magic, not too much off it to kill the Hydras, but to drive them off. Suddenly, Pinkie fired her party cannon filled with......CEMENT?! right into the first awaiting hydras head. The cement landed in its mouth with several loud cracks, identifying that it broke most of its teeth. Then the hydra heads turned toward their attackers, and roared, broken, non broken, and bloodie teeth showing towards them, meaning they were hungry, and enraged.

Then Fluttershy stared at both Hydras in the eyes, making most of the heads real back. The remaining heads then lunged towards her, then they stopped once magical blasts interfered with their attack. Raging and smoking, the Hydra were about to roar and call the others for help, but Applejack lassoed four of the Hydras mouths shut, with the help of Rainbow, Pinkie, and Fluttershy holding the rest of the ropes, while Rarity, Twilight, and the princesses were using their magic to close the remaining four. Then the unexpected happened.

"LOOK OUT!!! THE REST ARE COMING!!!!"

"WHAT!?!?"

Everypony then looked towards the trees to see the rest of the Hydras breaking the tree line, making any remaining birds and wildlife flee. Some were small compared to the average Boulder, but a dozen or so were as tall as Tirek when he had all that magic inside of him. The CMC were scared stiffless at what was happening. They thought they were all going to die. Well, they thought they were, until a loud roar came from the left of where the ponies were standing, and from the right, where all the Hydras were standing. The roar was loud enough to make some wildlife cover and fold their ears. The princesses and the main six believed that it was their savior coming to save them. But their hopes were given up, because what came through the trees, was a mama Hydra, and she was pissed off.

Everypony was shocked at the size the mama Hydra stood. The Hydra stood taller than most of the others, but not as tall as Godzilla. Along her face were battle scars from long fought battles. The features it gave struck fear into some of the Hydras, knowing that their mom wasn't happy with them. The ponies and dragon thought they were about to be killed by the tallest Hydra they've ever seen, but then the mama Hydra started roaring and barking orders at the rest of her kind, clearly talking to them.

"Fluttershy, what do you think that Hydra's telling the others?"

Um..... I think she is saying, that.... Um....... She wants the others to stop this nonsense and go home and follow her. I don't know, I never understood Hydra before."

"It's okay surgarcube, you did your best."

Soon the mama Hydra had finished barking orders, and looked over to where the ponies were standing. But it didn't give any sign of hostility, instead it was concerned, kind of like the same look when their savior looked down on them after he killed Tirek. Then some of the smaller Hydra's came to their mothers side, heads held low. But some of the taller more aggressive ones stayed put. Then out of no where, the remaining ones all ran straight for the ponies. They saw what was happening, and they all started running.

"Everypony, over there!"

Celestia pointed with her hoove forward towards a clearing beyond the trees, and the Hydras that were after them. Soon they were heading toward the advancing Hydras, dodging heads as they ran. One head crashed into the ground next to them, making Spike lose a hold of the box. Spike and the CMC saw the box fly open and the shards fly out. Soon they were running towards the shards, trying to get them back.

"Spike, girls, it's not safe! COME BACK!!!!!!!"

But they didn't listen to everypony shouting at them to come back. Soon they were at the box, all four of them picking up the fallen shards. But then the four heard all the other ponies scream in horror, and they soon found out why. They looked up to see four large Hydra heads dive right for them, teeth showing, ready to bite down on their food. Spike and the CMC held each other tightly as they braced for what they knew was coming, but that never came. Then the four heard the ponies cheer as they opened their eyes, and saw one of the smaller Hydras ramming into the taller one. Soon they got the shards back in the box and we're heading back towards the rest of the group.

Then the ponies cries of cheer went back into horror, as they turned around to see the taller Hydras grabbing a hold on the one that tried to save them. The other Hydras grabbed the smaller, weaker one by the throat, legs, mid section of its body, and it's tail. Then with loud pops and tearing sounds, the larger Hydras ripped the smaller one right in half. Everypony saw, and were shocked, sad, and enraged.Fluttershy never saw anything so gruesome in her life, and she started bursting into tears and throwing up, as everyone saw organs, blood, bones, and everything else come out of the Hydras ripped body. Soon most of them were crying, plus holding back their lunch from the picnic.

Then the other smaller Hydras called out to their fallen friend, and were also charging, only to be stopped by the mother.

"Sugarcube, what she saying now?"

"Um.... I think she said for the rest of them to fall back, and she is going to fight them so they can get to safety....... Along with US. SHE'S TRYING TO SAVE US!!"

Then the mama Hydra charged at her basterd children, as she bite down on one of the two Hydras heads. Then the remaining two heads lunged at the mothers free heads, but the assault was cut short as the mama Hydra bite down on the other two heads, then lifted and threw the Hydra she assaulted at three more oncoming Hydras. Suddenly the mother Hydra cried in pain as a surprise attack from another Hydra bite down on her legs, then lifting the mother Hydra over its head, and slamming her into the ground. The ponies cried out to the Hydra to quickly get up, and she did get up. With a slash of her tail, she left a large gash in the Hydras heads, making the Hydra lose its grip and dealing back from the blow. Then the mother Hydra got up, but was quickly brought back down by two more Hydras biting down on the back of her necks.

"We must keep going, there is nothing we can do, even if we wanted to help, we can't without the Elements of Harmony."

Soon the ponies and dragon continued their run. They looked behind them to see if they were being followed, and they were. Three Hydras, all having been assaulted by their mother, were hungry and wanted to kill them badly. They dodged heads and branches going from left to right, trying to get to the clearing. They turned around again after a long period of time without heads being smacked into the ground, and found their trio not pursuing them.

"Where did they go?"

"Does that matter now, NO. Okay, maybe a little, but not that doesn't matter. Let's just get to the clearing okay?!?"

Rarity gave a nod, and were soon in the clearing, looking out at the wide ocean beyond them. Well it wasn't an ocean, but it led to one. They looked back at the tree line to where the mother Hydra was still locked in battle, hearing cries from the Hydras, not knowing if they were from the mother, or her basterd children. Suddenly they heard the three that were following them nearing the opening. They were about to run towards their right, but out of nowhere, the first of the three came through the tree line. The ponies came to a halt, and ran to the left, only to nearly be in the mouths of the second one. The only choice was to run back where they came, but they weren't dumb enough to not know what would happen.

"Can't you just teleport us back to ponyville?"

"Spike, you're right, why didn't we think of this before!!"

Soon Twilight, Luna, and Celestia charged up their horns, ready to teleport everyone out of harms way. Everyone closed their eyes as they teleported back to ponyville, but when they opened their eyes, they found out they were still in the Everfree, with the three Hydras closing in. They tried again, but ended up with the same result. They were now panicking, slowly backing up into the water, trying to put as much distance from them and the Hydras as much as possible. They kept trying and trying to teleport back to ponyville, but were still in the same spot.

"Um... Weren't we just in the water a second ago?"

"Scoots, were still in the....."

Rainbow Dashs sentence was cut off as reality hit her like the Hydras ramming their heads in the ground. They WERE backing up in water, but now they were standing in mud and wet sand. Then they heard waves forming behind them, becoming more distant and more distant. Everyone, including the three Hydras, looked up and behind them, and soon even the Hydras were scared as the ponies. Out in the distance, they saw the waves coming back becoming bigger and more aggressive as they came to shore, then they saw it. On top of the waves, they saw three tall and sharp looking rocks, no, not rocks, dorsal plates breaking the top of the waves, advancing towards them, but no one seemed to know that the box containing the Elements of Harmony were starting to glow faintly.

Soon the Hydras were slowly backing up, but the ponies were still in trouble. Then they tried frantically to teleport, and they finally did! They open their eyes again, to find out they were still in the Everfree, but on top of a small hill, out of the way of the oncoming waves. Then the waves reached the trees, then the three Hydras. Then the ponies cried out in happy cheers of joy as they saw a large body mass break through the surface of the water. Then Godzilla roared at the three Hydras that threatened the ponies and the Everfree. He then grabbed the first Hydra by all four necks, and swung the Hydra right into the other one, making the two Hydras fall into some elevated rocks, nocking them out cold. Then the last of the three charged at the attacker, only to be grabbed by the necks, and thrown over his assailants head, smacking into the rocks head first, and joining the other two. Giving a grunt, Godzilla then moved on towards the other battle that was taking place. He stopped shortly and looked at the hill on which the ponies and dragon were standing on, still cheering.Godzilla gave a short roar/grunt towards the ponies, before moving forwards to the battle ahead.

"should we follow him?"

"I believe that would be a good idea, but we should still keep a good distance away from them."

Soon everypony was following their savior to another one of his bloodbaths, that they were about to endure. But no one noticed, not even Godzilla, the large flying form flying above the clouds, with its heads turning to see clear pictures of Godzilla, and the twelve small forms that were following him. And he knew he had to kill those forms before he could destroy Godzilla, then the Tree of Harmony.
