Buttons once he composed himself looked around and saw that he was still in one place, “Okay so what happened.........” Buttons said but stopped when he spotted his reflection in a puddle and gasped out loud when he saw that he was now wearing some sort of bull body black and blue armour that looked almost beetle like in design with the Scarab now mounted on his back. “What is this........” Buttons questioned and then was startled when the hooves of his armor then became two cannons, shaking it off he managed to focus enough to turn them back.
He then wondered if this thing could fly and sure enough out of the scarab came two wings and he managed to fly off into the air, getting over the shock of it he grinned to himself, “this is so cool!” Buttons said mentally thanking his mother for making him go outside today. With this new armor thing, he could become one of those superheroes that have been popping up in Equestria lately, it would be living an adventure instead of just playing them on his game consoles. He would now need a name, well the armor was blue and made him look like a beetle......... that’s it! From here right on he would no longer just be Buttons Mash mild mannered video game loving colt but he will also be Ponyville hero the Blue Beetle!
He then spotted what looked like Diamond Tiara as a Draconequus scaring other colts and fillies by zapping lightning at them purely for their own amusement. Grinning to himself while he was still in the air he thought this would be a good opportunity to have his first fight with a supervillain. “Blue Beetle away!” Buttons shouted as he flew after Draconequus Tiara which he thought she could be called now.

“Can you believe this Sugarcube that they are actually making a movie about us where we will have to fight!” Applejack said as she was eating sweets with Rarity at Sugarcube Corner, Applejack was showing Rarity a newspaper detailing an upcoming movie called “Supermare V Mare Do Well: Dawn of Super”. Rarity was also wondering how this would worked, especially since none of the Super Friends of Equestria had their identity known to the public except for their leader Twilight.
“Really doesn’t matter darling.” Rarity said allowing herself to be more friendly to her Super Friends of Equestria teammate than how she would normally behave while they were Supermare and Mare Do Well. “Let them have their little movie, since it seems that our younger siblings have started their own crime fighting careers along with Scootaloo, do you think it will ever be alright to let them entrust their identities to eachother?” Rarity answered and Applejack crushed, they would probably turn the Cutie Mark Crusaders into a superhero group or something.

Big Macintosh was there with the Cutie Mark Crusaders as the train arrived and Babs came out with her luggage. “Hi cousin!” Babs said with a sheepish smile and wave as she made sure that the hood of her jumper was properly up and covering her eye weirding out the Cutie Mark Crusaders as Big Macintosh told them he would let them spend time with eachother as he took Babs’ things back to the farm.
“Hi Babs, these are my friends Applejack and Sweetie Belle, are you alright?” Applebloom questioned in a concerned tone and Babs nodded nervously, they heard a blast and were shocked to see Diamond Tiara coming over to them and holding a giant axe she conjured up. “Is that Diamond Tiara.........” Applebloom gasped along with Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle.
“Now you Blank Flanks, I have real power now and as long as you accept me as the new queen of Ponyville then I might not make your lives a living hell...” Diamond Tiara said only to see blasts coming at her. “What is that?” Diamond Tiara questioned as she spotted Buttons in the air using his cannon hooves to shoot at her.
“I guess I should have expected this when I heard about all these superpowered ponies in Ponyville, just like a Power Ponies comic..........” Babs said only to find that the other three had went away, taking the distraction of Buttons to go away so they could change into their superhero identities.
Scootaloo ran as fast as she could to her home so she could change into Kid Dash, Applebloom flew back to the farm so she could change into Superfilly but Sweetie Belle went to a nearby hiding spot so she could change into Filly Be-Goode as she carried her costume in the backpack she was wearing just in case, Rarity thought it would be best if they needed to do a quick change learning from when she did not have her costume when Nightmare Moon appeared.
Applebloom and Scootaloo returned and saw Sweetie Belle put on her mask, “You’re Filly Be-Goode, Sweetie?” Applebloom asked with great surprise in her voice. Sweetie Belle then gulped that her identity was revealed but then noticed something.
“Scootaloo, you’re Kid Dash?” Sweetie asked and Scootaloo was shocked when she realised that she forgot to put her mask on and then did so sheepishly, “Wait does that make Applebloom the Superfilly?” Sweetie asked and the look on Applebloom’s face proved it. They all realised that by some contrived coincidence they were all superhero sidekicks which they were keeping from eachother, they also realised who the heroes they were sidekicks to would be based on their older siblings (or older sibling figure in Scootaloo’s case).
“Let’s leave all questions until we fight Diamond Tiara and her new weird powers.” Scootaloo suggested and they all nodded. They would sort this out later as they ran back to the main platform of the train station.
At the station watching Buttons fight Diamond Tiara made Babs pause, she wanted to see if she could help but she did not want anypony to find out her secret and possibly label her as a freak. Still no telling what this bully could do and she did not like the fact that she used the term Blank Flank which she heard all the time back when she had attended school before the accident. Decision made Babs took her hood down to show that the left side of her face was covered in robotic cybernetics including a red robotic eye. “Okay, time to show this bully not to go pushing ponies around with her powers. Time for this cyborg to get to work!” Babs said as Diamond Tiara and Buttons noticed as she turned her hooves into robotic cannons like what Buttons’ armor could do.
That was when the Cutie Mark Crusaders arrived in their Superhero identities....
