Author's Note: I hope you enjoy this chapter. Sorry if you don't.
[A little time ago. Adven's P.O.V.]
I opened my eyes to find myself in Pinkie's room. I tryed to rise only to feel a sharp pain in my side.
"I wouldnt be so keen to move if I was you," I heard an old voice say.
"Who is that?" I asked gritting my teeth.
"I am Martial Art. I had saved you from your predictament. The jewels that tore through your body were poisoned. That is why you weren't feeling the pain until you touched your wounds," he explained.
I tryed to get up but my body wouldn't let me.
"Even without the poison the shards cut deep. Too deep to heal effectively without much time of rest," he said bluntly.
I nodded and layed back down.
He exited and I heard him talk with Pinkie.
All I heard was garbled words as Pinkie talked too fast.She sounds really shaken by something. I wonder what it is?
"I would have preferred for you to rest," he said gravely,"but unfortunately we have no choice but to leave now. "
Before I could even attempt to make a reply Martial Art threw my body on his shoulders and began to walk.
I tryed to sleep to relieve myself of my pain. After a few failed trys I was finally able to achieve that small amount of peace.
[Back with Bass and Rhino.]
"Oh fuck?! What do you mean 'oh fuck?!" I heard Rhino yell from behind me.
I was too busy taking in the appearance of the giant death machine in front of me to answer Rhino right away. . It had a v shaped visor which was painted a dark green. Its limps were lengthy and skeleton shaped and colored jet black.
I breathed a heavy sigh and turned around to face him. I smilled nervously,"I may not be able to bring my gundam to help so we may be fucked."
"Oh.." Rhino was interrupted by the robot opening up with a hiss.
"What is it doing?" he asked as it cast a red light onto me.
"I believe it wants to do one of two things. Either it wants me to forget what I saw with a flash. Or more likely it wants to vaporize me," I chuckled nervously.
"You should try and get out of here. I get the feeling I am its target. No sense in you getting hurt too because of me," I said waving Rhino to go.
Before Rhino could respond the giant robot tryed to grab me with its right arm. I closed my eyes preparing for the worst.
I opened my eyes a few seconds later to find a strange sight even for Ponyville standards. [I saw it and I still have trouble believeing it myself.] I saw giant musical notes change into big hoofs that were raining down blows upon the mechanical menance.
"Hey bro nice to see you!" I heard a familiar relaxed voice yell. I turned my head and found two familiar faces.
"Vibes! DJ!" I said relieved they were alright. "What is with the notes?" I asked hoping they would know.
DJ pointed to Vibes who simply nodded.
"Let us take care of this," DJ said arrogantly. He then pulled out a pipe. "Ready to go Vibes?"
Again Vibes didn't say anything only nodded.
"Good because I don't think he was going to stay down any longer," Rhino said bringing our attention back to our immediate threat.
With that said Vibes's horn glowed and an energy guitar fell into his hooves. DJ tryed to not look impressed. [And he failed.]
The old musically summoned hooves dissipated into the air.
They were replaced by a giant circle with limbs. It was easily a match where height was concerned for the attacking robot.
The giant hollow sphere threw a right hoof only for the robot to sidestep the attack.
The robot tryed to counter with a blow of its own but its attack simply went through the musical marvel.
DJ began to play his pipe as Vibes began to focus on having his own monster attack the robot.
"What exactly is that one doing?" Rhino echoed my thoughts.
"I don't know. We should probably try and see if we can help any innocent bystanders," I said trying to assign us a task.
Rhino opened his mouth but then quickly shook his head. "They wouldn't be here now," Rhino said dismissing my idea.
"You could still go," I said trying to get Rhino to listen to me.
Rhino ignored me and turned his attention back to the fight of two titans.
Suddenly it began to launch missiles at its circular threat. They like its close combat blows harmlessly phased through the phantom of music. "DJ!" Vibes shouted.
"I am on it!" he responded by playing his pipe. As he did this a giant portal appeared in front of the missiles. A second one appeared above the robot.
The missiles flew through the nearest portal and flew through its fellow hole to hit the robot's head. The robot's head was engulfed by the flames of its own weapons blowing up in its face.
"Good job," I began and stopped when I realized something important. "I guess he didn't come alone," I said noting the fact there were two more identical robots attacking Ponyville.
I felt a cold metal hand grab me at the waist and the next thing I knew I was several feet above the ground.
"Bass!" I heard Rhino yell as I saw a magical beam hit the robot that had mistook me as a toy. As the beam got closer the robot tightened its grip on my body. [Correction it thought I was a squeaky toy.]
"We are coming!" Vibes said beginning to move his monster to attack my robotic foalnapper.
Before he could get close enough the original robot had snuck up behind DJ and Vibes. He attacked where they were by attacking the buildings around them. With them distracted Vibe's monster and DJ's portals disappeared.
The robot began to try and crush me in its robotic clutches. "AAAAAAaagh!" I screamed in agony. All my brain could process was pain.
"Put him down!" I heard a voice yell. [I had closed my eyes due to the pain.]
My eyes grew wide because from across me was two gundams. The first was Shining Gundam. The second looked much like a certain dark gray pegasus I know. "Shadow?" I said barely above a whisper. [Hey being squeezed like a tube of toothpaste is exhausting.]
"Don't worry we are here to help you," he said comfortingly. We? Who is we?
"Shadow hoof!" Shadow yelled as his gundam's right hoof was engulfed in a similar shadow energy I had seen him use before.
Before the robot could drop me Shadow's Shadow hoof hit its mark destroying the robot's head unit.
My body began to plummet towards the ground at a fast rate.I was so hurt I couldn't ever attempt to scream out of fear for my life.
When I had not went 'splat' I opened my eyes to see Shining Gundam had caught me. I mouthed a quick thank you to the pilot.
"I am glad to see you are alright," Carrot Top said relieved. She lightly placed me down near Rhino. He has not left yet? Huh. He must love me. Can't blame him though. I am kind of awesome!
Our two gundams flew until they were opposite of the two remaining ones. "I'll get that one," Shadow said flying off to meet the undamaged one in combat.
Shining Gundam began to transform. Pieces seemed to rise and send golden energy to the system.
"This hoof of my glows with an awesome power! Its grip tells me to grasp victory!" As Carrot Top said this a light pink beam of light shaped like a sword was drawn out by the gundam. " Take this my love! My anger! And all of my sorrow! Shining Hoof Blade!" She rushed to eliminate the head unforunately that left her cockpit wide open. She swiped wildly after each one of her shouts of rage.
Her enemy realized it too and tryed to take advantage. Steel rang on steel as the robot hit itself. DJ had created a portal that protected Carrot Top from the attack. If she noticed she showed no signs of it because she continued her attack.
She swiped the head with the sword. After it was over she fell back panting. She was obviously exhausted from the exercise of piloting the suit.
After a few deep breaths I was able to stand up although my body was aching the whole way. I looked up to find Shadow was having problems with the remaining robot. Vibes monster was there along with DJ"s portals but it seemed to make little difference. Damn. Shadow must be exhausted from using his Shadow Hoof.
I heard a fmailiar hiss and turned my head to find an old face emerge from a portal. "Shadic?"
He grinned,"Yeah. Did you miss me? You don't have to answer that I know you did."
I shot him a quick grin and pointed at the fight. "Think you can lend Shadow a hoof?" I asked still panting.
Instead of answering Shadic flew full speed to meet the robot. His body was engulfed by dark and light energy interwining with one another. He began to spin picking up more energy.
He connected with the head of the robot and flew past it. The entire body of the robot was vaporized on impact of Shadic's attack. "Good job Shadic," I said finally letting my pain overtake me.
