The Great Fandom Man!

Diverting From Oscar

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.

Humpty Dumpty said, "Orbot! Cubot! Hurry before we fall!"

A round red robot and his square friend was fixing the engine of the Eggmobile, a hovercraft of this Eggman's design. There was a rumble behind them, kicking up smoke in their wake. Hedgehogs of Modern, Classic, or BOOM... with some fan too... were creating a storm of sand north of Appleoosa.

When they thought they were doomed, Discord showed up! ...with Tirek. Orbot shouted, "We only have power to reach Ponyville. I'm sorry Doctor, but we will have to take a trai-"

"Go! Go! Go! GOOO!" Humpty Dumpty the Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik shouted as they flew out of sight. The last thing they saw was a losing battle between the fast hedgehogs and Tirek, who stole their speed magic. Or whatever Modern Sonic runs on that makes him glow. The vision shimmered away, revealing the unharmed yet angry society of hedgehogs looking around for their target.


One again reminded of my last Equestria, I began to walk aimlessly for who knows how long. Harley and Seph tried to keep my spirits up, but the wound cuts too deep.

"Spike, what have I done?" Twilight sighed dejectedly. "I've ruined my friends lives. ...It's all my fault."

Sora was snapped by his train of thought, looking down to realize he was in his pony form. I stared at my dark brown hooves with the white swirling thorn look of my constant final form before slowly turning my head to my left.

Twilight Sparkle sat in the middle of an angry Ponyville. I was accidentally breaking ten laws just being this close to her... I stopped my hovering, trotting up to her. ...She may not be my Twilight, but this will put my soul at ease at least. "...uh...hi? What's wrong?"

Twilight was broken from her deep thoughts, looking up as our eyes locked. "I... I ruined my friends' destinies. ...And I don't know what to do!"

"...Maybe I can help." In the meantime I can slowly become envied by every Displaced in the land, but this is destiny I'm sure of it! Friendship is power anyway.

"...I tried my memory spell, convincing them of their real lives, and even dragged them to their destination areas!" Twilight explained. "I even put Grocho Marx on Pinkie, but they wont except their destinies as if there was a barrier!"

"A barrier?" I asked. What should've been the "true true friend" musical route failed somehow, but what if... I took out my keyblade, "Take me to them!"

Twilight stared at me in shock, her own keyblade forming. It was a simple yet elegant violet and magenta keyblade with the head, hilt, and keychain resembling her six-point star cutiemark. Below the head, along the neck, were five tiny white stars. "You have one, too?!" she asked, excitedly.

"I have multiple keyblades- In fact, I'm a Keyblade Master!" I was somewhat fanboying, but I had to keep it down. "How did you get yours anyway?"

"Rainbow Dash. And we have no clue where she got her key." She paused, her eyebrow raised, "So... we're going to knock out my friends?"

"What makes you think that?"

"These are weapons, right?"

"Yeah, but they don't harm the innocent and have multiple purposes. The main of being-" I swung Oblivion and Oathkeeper over to a hot air balloon and fired a magic laser where Fluttershy was about to 'make like a tree and leaf'. Her eyes glowed as her mark switched from balloons to butterflies. "Magical key things."

Twilight galloped over to her friend as I hovered behind with Spike sitting on Oathkeeper.


It was a normal day in Displopolis, except for a newcomer away from New Atlantis. A small wooden wagon was being pushed by oars as it it was a canoe. Inside the wagon was a pool containing a tired tan mermaid. Basically she looked like a Hawaiian version of Ariel from Disney's 'the Little Mermaid'.

A crab was helping her find her way to town, holding a map twenty times his size. His Jamaican voice spoke, "Amanda, me thinks we're here."

"Its Arielilo now! Amanda is a dumb land dweller."

"Oh? Then what does that make you?" He pointed a claw at her, "You're a mermaid who can't swim! Now, I think swimming lesson will be on your left-" There was a cracking noise as the wagon tilted over, water almost leaked out. Sabaston looked over to the side, muttering curses. "Well, we might be stuck."

"Why?" She asked. Suddenly there was a shake as the wagon was lifted off the ground.

"You have a broken wheel! Let me help," a teenage male voice said from underneath. "Hello, my name is the great Fandom Man legend-"

"Not really!" Someone said at a distance.

"Yeah... Where to?"

Sabaston looked over to see a boy in Mega Man X ripoff armor and a white Iron Man helmet begin walking forward with the wagon in his hands. "Greninja's Garden. Amanda needs swimming lessons."

"Amanda?" Fandom Man asked, "To be honest: she looks like a Lilly or a Ariel-Lilo mix."

"See!" Arielilo said, grasping her oar. "Though, Lilly is starting to sound better. By pony theme: Lilly Pad... or just Lilly."

That's when I showed up. I ran towards the center of of Displopolis, Steve at my heels. "Nacho, slow down!"

I turned my head back, "I can't Steve, the magic of friendship is filling me with excitement!" I suddenly knocked over that guy that almost killed me. A mermaid in a coconut bra began flopping on the ground as a crab tried resuscitating her to no avail, but I was sure she was fine. "Eagle Spirit! Give me strength..."


Sora stood in shock as Twilight disappeared, her friends and Spike worried about her sudden disappearance.

"Well... who wants to... um... practice keyblade magic until Twilight returns?" I asked, slowly and hesitantly.

AJ and Rainbow shrugged, taking out their keyblades. "Sure," Rainbow said. "Got nothing better to do until then."

The three of us got in battle positions. Rainbow Dash held her keyblade in her front hooves while Apple Jack used her mouth. Oblivion and Oathkeeper hovered behind me as we locked eyes.

Rainbow closed the distance by I blocked her strike, but before I could counter with Oblivion, Apple Jack stopped it with her apple tree themed keyblade. Sora spun around in his wisdom form, firing magic from Oathkeeper as Apple Jack and Rainbow dodged. "Pull your magic to your key, put your heart in your shot!" I called out.

The two of them paused, charging shots they fired. AJ's magic resembled a shot gun while Rainbow's was faster and more focused. After a while, everyone joined even Rarity, who was her key as another horn. I taught them how to transform their keyblades, riding on a skateboard that was Oblivion while reloading my Oathkeeper guns to continue the firework show.

Suddenly, I was caught off guard by some hovercraft dropping out of warp with a boom in the air. That combined with my magic somehow sent us to Displopolis where my face fell on something wet. I was suddenly slapped by a fish girl, who suddenly plopped onto a knocked over pool of water. The wagon was tossed up by her cry as Fandom Man got out from under the wooden vehicle.

"Don't worry, fair maiden," he said, puffing her chest as his armor turned blue and water shot from his hand, refilling the pool with water. "I will- Oh, hey Sora! What's up?"

"Giving Twilight wings and helping the elements use keyblades as tools," I said getting up, dusting myself off. "Are you picking up chicks?"

"Aalkos...(1) I noticed her wagon wheel broke and I was bored," he said.

"Sure. Any way," I turned to the cooked mermaid. "Sorry for dropping in. ...Actually, how am I here?"

M'aiq the Liar walked by, fixing his yellow cloak as his tail swayed, "Deus Ex Magic. The writer does not care."


Piloting the story to do another dumb side story. We meet inside of a blue microchip-themed world where specific characters sat at a bonfire.

"Are we supposed to say something meaningful?" Mask asked.

"No," his four companions replied.

"Does this move the plot?" FandomPool asked.

"Is there even a plot?" Q asked, "I'm still waiting for chapter 2."

Everyone continued to silently eat marshmallows when suddenly a screen formed.

"What is Twilight doing?" Fandomcord asked.

"Beats me," Discord replied. "I think a star butt is born."

"When did you get here?"

"I'm always here yet I never am."

"Alright."

On screen after Twilight defeated the giant heartless made of her past doubts, she walked into a starry hallway where Celestia sat playing Mine Sweeper. "Oh, you made it!" Celestia said. "I wonder why it took you so long to get here."

There was a heart to heart conversation and a musical as Celestia covered her student in a mysterious aura that led Twilight to a dark realm with a keyhole. Twilight summoned her keyblade, twirling around as she spun to face the keyhole, charging and firing a laser that unlocked her hidden power as magic energy wings flared from her sides and her eyes glowed. She suddenly made a nosedive to the ground where she landed in the middle of Ponyville where her friends waited.

Mask tossed his popcorn at the screen, making it shimmer. "Booooo! More explosions!"

FandomPool cupped his hands around his mouth, "We don't need Princess Twilight Has-" Suddenly her wings flared as angelic music played in the background and Twilight gained a drive form and two keyblades. Light magic exploded behind her as she held a Princess themed keyblade that resembled the ultima weapon with a solar eclipse keychain end. "Carry on, princess."

Q leaned over his knees, hands making a tent shape in front of his face, "Now the merchandising begins."

Discord pulled out a wiki page from nowhere, stating, "I found Adagio Dazzle!"

Q gave a sideways smirk, "Brilliant. We will keep the human idea and create a season of rainbows."

Mask had the stereotypical fat Brony look as he shouted, "HUMAN TWILIGHT!"

"It will take place in a high school and Twilight will have a love interest," Fandomcord said.

Mask put on his M.A. Larson face... before grossly discarding it. "Seriously, we're role playing that?" he asked, brushing the cheetoh dust that reverting back to normal didn't take care of.

"Good idea, we make- Yeah, I'm done now."

Q frowned, "Sooo... Any idea on the future chapter?"

Their animaniac form ran past, shouting,
