//------------------------------// // It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad Equestria! // Story: My Little Homie // by Lock Target //------------------------------// SOMEWHERE, AT THE PONYVILLE DUMP...! Eva is giddily making monsters made of muck. Meanwhile, Future Fluttershy gives EagleClaw a card with some numbers on it. "These are the coordinates to Space Monster M's location" she hissed. Carl held on to the card as EagleClaw punches in the coordinates. "Now, press enter and step asside" "You got it, boss!" Said Carl pressing the button, "TECHNOLOGY!" Just then, a strange void appears on where the window is...Then it shows a shot of space with some unusual visuals to it. the two move to different sides of the machine so Future Fluttershy and the others could see. "Hey, this isn't Space Monster M" EagleClaw said, "It's a cartooooon!" This was unavoidable, so let's get it over with, clap-clap...! Sorry... When the cartoon finished, Carl looked at the card. "Oh MAN, YOU PUT IT IN BACKWARDS!" he shouted scooting Future Fluttershy asside so he can put the right numbers in, "BEEP-BEEP-BOOP-BOOP-BOP-TECHNOLOGY!" Another portal shows up showing a giant white face with an M on the forehead. In a deep, monsterous, slightly worbbly voice, the creature asked, "WHAT THE!? DO YOU MIND? I'M PLOTTING TO STEAL SUPERMAGIC POWERMAN'S SUPER MAGIC POWER AMULATE!" Clearing her throat, Future Fluttershy says, "Yes, well...How would you like a break from that?" "...I'm listening" said Space Monster M. noticing the talking winged horse in the center of the gathering. "Now then" started Future Fluttershy making the others scatter away from the machine so she may pace, "This bares further explaination, but I am from the future. I came here to move the events that take place a month from now into effect in the next two days. To do this, I will need a special item known as the Pendant of Quantum Cosmo" She holds up the book to Space Monster M's face. "And according to this book I hold in my hooves, it's located in a mountain in Northern Equestria" "Hmm" pondered the disembodied head...space monster...thing..."And this pendant is the only means of coming to your world? What am I to do in the meantime?" "Be patient" Future Fluttershy answered turning to EagleClaw. "EagleClaw, I will trust YOU to bring it to me" She tears out the map page and give it to EagleClaw. "HIM!?" shouted ManAnt in disbelief, "Given his performance, he's likely to botch the job!" "That's because you IMMEDIATELY PUT YOURSELF IN THE LEADER POSITION WITHOUT HAVING IT PUT TO A VOTE!" EagleClaw snapped, "WHAT'S MORE, YOU DON'T ASK ANYONE IF THEY HAVE A PLAN! IT'S ALWAYS GOTTA BE YOU, YOU, YOU!" "It was MY IDEA TO TEAM UP TO DEFEAT THE AQUABATS!" ManAnt snapped back. "Yeah? Well...ONE OF THEM'S MY BROTHER!" "ENOUGH!" boomed Space Monster M. in frustration, "SHUT UP, BOTH OF YOU!" "I'll put you BOTH on the assignment if it will get you two to cooperate!" added Future Fluttershy. As the two set off after shrugging at each other, she turns her attention toward Carl and Cobraman. "As for you two-" "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEGLECLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!" THERE it is. "...I need you to carry the machine around. We don't want our friend here to miss out on the fun...EVA!" Future Fluttershy turns over to the muck monster army. "How goes the creation of our first wave?" "...Only vave, unfortunately" Eva answered downheartedly, "Your order for zose giants exhausted mein zupplies" "It'll have to do" groaned Future Fluttershy. She then looked around a little bit. "Now I just need somepony to have a proper conversation with so I don't go mad from all this incompitance" "Perhapse I may be that somepony?" Asked a deep-voiced stranger. Everyone turns around to see a muscular, cloaked figure wearing a horned helmet fashioned like a minotaur's head and what appears to be an exo-suit walking along dragging a wheeled iron box behind him by a chain. "Ah, Lord Cammat Bendcrom, my old friend" said Future Fluttershy in ecstacy, "And I see you brought your...Friend along with you" "Indeed I have, Fluttershy" Bendcrom replied, "He will come useful when our plan comes together" "Who's THIS clown!?" asked Carl. "HOW DARE YOU!?" Future Fluttershy snapped, "Cammat Bendcrom happens to be one of the most trusted commander in the Discordian army" "So, what are you up to now?" Bendcrom asked Future Fluttershy. "We were just getting ready to assault Ponyville" Future Fluttershy replied, "Care to join us?" "Why, I'd be delighted to" Bendcrom answered back. Meanwhile, the MC Bat Commander arrived back at Ponyville only to see that it's surrounded by a strange, sudsy moat. He notices a lever on his side where a drawbridge is set up. He pulls the lever hesitantly expecting it to be a trap. The bridge lowers and he crosses it slowly hearing a creak coming from it. As soon as he made it to the Ponyville side, Pinkie comes by swimming in the moat. "There you are!" Pinkie said making the Commander get into a frightened fighting stance. "Oh, Pinkie...Pie, was it?" Asked the Commander calming down, "Has this moat always been here, or am I just a little tired from the trek back here?" "COMMNADER!" Crash shouted climbing over the buildings in front of him like a fence. He then shrinks down and gives the Commander a big hug. "I WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT YOU!" "Good...To see you too...Big guy" the Commander responded straining with the air he had. Crash lets go of him. Catching his second wind, he asks, "Where did this moat come from?" "Oh, Ricky built it" Crash answered. "Where did he get the water and bubble bath soap?" the Commander asked. "Huh...? Oh, THAT!" As Crash gets ready to explain, Pinkie climbs out on the drawbridge side shaking herself dry then proceeds to itching herself with her right back hoof for a little before walking over to the Ponyville side. "You see, the moat itself was actually a happy accident. Remember the griffin you wrestled? I don't know if it's the same one, but she lossened a rock on a nearby mountain that shot across the town with her on it. This lead to some water from the river above coming out of it which was going to flood the town before Ricky made a groove into the ground surrounding it deep enough to prevent it from being washed away. This in turn caught a run-away wagon delivering bubble bath to a local store which mixed in with the water" "...That seems elaborately conveniant" the Commander said trying to wrap his head around the explanation. "It's like going for a swim and taking a bath at the same time" Pinkie commented making her way to the Ponyville side of the moat. "...Uh-huh...Anyway, where's Jimmy?" the Commander asked remembering his appointed mission holding up the disk, "I was asked by that weird robot to give him this and not put it into the rabbit's hard drive for two days" "He's with Twilight working on a way so the bad guys we capture don't get away when we capture them" Pinkie reports gesturing them to follow her. Back at the library, Twilight and Jimmy are tightening a few last screws on a conainment device. "There, that should do" Twilight said sighing in relief. "This conainment dome will make sure that not even ManAnt can escape" Jimmy added returning his hand back to normal. Just then, Pinkie, Crash and the Commander arrive. Stay tuned for an announcement!
