The giant purple-skinned frog demon-like with greenish scale-like dressed in his loincloth, his blackish gloves and boots-like was watching at his crystal orb. He was looking at Lance and his friends walking through the barren wasteland. He smirked darkly.
"Well now... It appears my sister Po Kong had fail," The demon frog smirked, "Matters not... I'm prepared. My creatures will work together as one."
He turned to the humanoid navy frog-like dressed in his blackish ninja suit with armor and plate. He spoke with sinister glee, "Elite Commander Hornet... Prepare the troops. Capture them alive..."
Hornet hissed, "As you wish, Master Xiao Fung..."
Hornet's eyes glowed in crimson as his body slowly dispersed into nothingness...
After leaving the Demon Jungle, Lance and his friends traveled across the barren wasteland for nearly an hour. They cam across another forest called Insect Swamp. Unlike Demon Jungle's forest, it was more darker and dangerous yet wilder than before. It consisted of bubbling brownish and dirty swamps, insect swarms and wild forest-like. They continued travel across the area.
"So, what's the next item we're looking for, guys?" Spike asked.
Nyx read the Ingredient List while looking at her Demon Encyclopedia, "The next item is Poison Frog's Slime. But this slime had to be from the very poisonous and demonic frog. The slime may have been acid, sticky and dangerous but can be used for cure. It does removed the burnt marks on anyone's skins. It even helped close opened wounds into one like waxing the stuffed animal."
Lance nodded his head, "Knowing what kind of sickness our family are having? They're about to get the worse wounds."
Lance and his friends came across the swamp-like. They walked through it; despite being disgusted, filthy, dirty and watery mud-likes.
Sweetie Belle awed in disgust while looking at her hooves, "I can see why Rarity complained about this mud."
Apple Bloom nodded, "This swamp is not like anything I ever seen or felt before."
"It is Demon's Swamp. What else do you expect?" Scootaloo said.
"At least, we don't have to worry about any sign of Demons or Monsters to deal with," Jade smiled.
Lance hummed in concern, "Why do I get the feeling that we're about to meet one?"
SCREECH! Lance and his friends yelped in shock and concern as they looked around of their surroundings. They looked worry and concern of what they were facing and dealing with. Lance armed his Twin Dragon Swords. Shiroi, Jade and Nyx armed themselves to fight. Spike readied himself. Three Crusaders remained on middle as they looked worry and scared.
Before any of them could do, Sweetie Belle disappeared in the blink of an eye but not leaving a scream.
"Sweetie Belle?!" Apple Bloom and Scootaloo exclaimed in shock and concern.
Shiroi's and Jade's voice screamed in fear. Lance and his friends looked to the front as they found them missing too.
"Shiroi! Jade!" Lance exclaimed in concern yet anger.
"Surrender now! Trespassers! And you may see your friends again," The dark yet sinister Hornet's voice demanded.
Lance groaned in anger, "Show yourself!"
Hornet and his various armored humanoid demon-frogs; riding their six-winged monstrous wasps-like with long tail and pincers came down from the sky. On the ground emerged the armored crimson gigantic ants-like and shadowy humanoid mantises with crimson eyes in triangle-shape. Lance and his friends were surrounded by their enemies.
Lance and his friends looked and glared at Hornet and his vanguards.
"Who are you?! What did you do to our friends?!" Lance demanded.
"I am Elite Commander of Xiao Fung's Demon Army: Hornet," Hornet introduced before pointed at Nyx, "I want Princess of Demon return to us. Then, we let you live and leave this swamp. Deny it means war against Master Xiao Fung!"
Feared for her friends' safety at their risks, Nyx sighed as she approached, "Alright... Please be sure that my friends return safely before I give to you."
Pleased by Nyx's response, Hornet landed his riding wasp down. As Nyx was about to move, Apple Bloom and Scootaloo came in-between her and Hornet. Lance and Spike came to the front and readied themselves to fight.
"Forget it," Apple Bloom and Scootaloo protested.
"Not a chance," Lance denied angrily, "You're not taking my sister away from us!"
"You want her. Come and fight with us!" Spike challenged.
Nyx gasped, "But guys-!"
"We'll find a way," Lance explained, "But giving you up is not an option. We'll get Shiroi, Jade and Sweetie Belle back. They won't give up either too."
Surprised by her older brother's resolve, Nyx nodded her head. Hornet was angered by ponies' resistance.
"Then begone, you worthless mortals! I'll take her by force! You'll never have the chance to defeat Elite Commander like me. I'm powerful and invincible!" Hornet screeched in anger, "Take them down!"
Shadow Mantises, Frog Warriors and Gigantic Insects roared and screeched wildly and angrily as they all charged straight at their enemies. Frog Ninjas took their knives, spears, swords and pikes out as they attacked and battled their enemies. Some rode on the Flying Wasps and Armored Ants attacked on them. Shadow Mantises also joined in the battlefield as well.
Lance jumped over six of Frog Warriors to their backs. His enemies turned back and charged at him. He blocked their spears with his first sword before swung his second sword at them hard. Second wave charged in as they swung their weapons at him. He blocked and deflected the attacks before struck them down one-by-one. Third wave of Frog Warriors charged in attacking at him. He blocked the first one's before swung his sword at his enemy, then thrust his swords at the second and third Warriors'. He jumped and kicked his enemies' heads off one-by-one.
HISS! Lance turned and came face-to-face with Hornet who wielded his forked spear. Both swung their weapons in clashing at each other for few times. Hornet swung his spear on the ground. Lance jumped and slammed his swords on Hornet's but blocked as the latter kicked the former to the ground. Hornet thrust and stroke his spear on Lance who rolled over and away from the former for few times. Lance got up as he quickly swung his swords at Hornet's spear. They both continued swinging and clashing theirs at each other hard and quick.
Nyx launched her Lunar Shots and Black Night Beam in destroying most of Shadow Mantises while having some close-combats in against the coming Frog Warriors. She also managed to dodge and avoid the attacks quickly. Encountered some Wasp Raiders and Armored Ants in charging at her, Nyx levitated three giant rock from her left. Difficult for her to lift such heavy objects, she managed did it before throwing the first on Wasp Raiders, followed by the Armored Ants and then some waves of Frog Warriors and Shadow Mantises.
Spike, Apple Bloom and Scootaloo kept on running away from the charging and chasing Shadow Mantises and Frog Warriors. They slided down below the large logs, allowing it knocking the enemies out. Apple Bloom climbed up to the top edge of rocks as she kicked and bucked some rocks in sliding down on Frog Warriors. Scootaloo rode her scooter in going around and around of Shadow Mantises in giving them a spin. Spike launched his Dragon Flames and Dragon Claws on his enemies one-by-one.
As the fight continued, Lance was hovered over Hornet before turned and spun himself in swinging his Twin Dragon Swords at him. Hornet rolled over to the front. He turned and launched his tongue in grabbing Lance's leg. He pulled and thrown Lance right on Nyx, Spike, Apple Bloom and Scootaloo to the giant tree hard. He then whipped Lance in knocking his friends hard for ten times. Hornet then slammed Lance on his friends hard.
Lance and his friends moaned and groaned painfully as Hornet approached to them.
"You'll regret your challenge. Prepare to meet your fate!" Hornet exclaimed before hissed.
Before Hornet could do anything, he heard the swooping noise. He turned to his left and found a kunai throwing at him and his soldiers. Most of them got impaled and stabbed by the kunais while Hornet blocked and deflected them hard.
As soon as all of kunais were stopped from throwing, Hornet looked up and found his soldiers and minions were killed. Not only that, he found his enemies went missing. Hornet roared and screeched in anger.
Neared the dark and dead tree with various and many roots attached to the swamp, Lance and his panted in exhaustion. They looked and found Zelda standing before the lake. They thanked her for helping and saving them from Hornet.
Zelda turned and smiled beneath her scarf, "I'm just glad to see you survive the attacks. And... I'm sorry for your loss of friends."
"This is my fault," Nyx said in guilt, "I should have surrendered."
Zelda approached and patted Nyx's shoulder gently, "Do not blame yourself. But remember... You do not remember why those monsters called and respect you as their princess. It is wise that you remained with us than surrender."
"But-!"
"Be brave, young one. Do not give up. It's not over."
Nyx thought for the moment before she sighed and nodded, "You're right. We can't give up."
"Good. Now that's done. But how are we gonna find and rescue the rest of Unicorn Friends?" Spike asked in concern.
Apple Bloom nodded her head, "And don't forget... We have some crazy frog commander."
Lance nodded his head, "Yeah... I want some payback from that jerk for kidnapping Shiroi!" Everyone looked at him while giving him a sly smile. He yelped before having his face burnt in red, "She's my friend! That's all! And he's gonna pay for kidnapping Jade and Sweetie Belle!"
Everyone giggled and laughed in amusement at Lance's embarrassment and interest on Shiroi.
Zelda cleared her throat, "Okay, that's enough. Let's focus on the mission. Like how are we gonna find the hive and your friends?"
As everyone had some thoughts in thinking of how they find their friends, Scootaloo looked up at the sky. She gasped upon looking at some giant Wasps flying around in the area. She thought for the moment. She smirked, "I think I know how. Follow me."
Scootaloo climbed up the tree. Her confused yet concerned friends followed her to the top.
Upon reaching to the top, Scootaloo and her friends were standing on the tree's top branches. They were waiting for something. Upon seeing three Wasp Raiders flying around, Scootaloo cried as she jumped, followed by her friends. They kicked the Frog Warriors off the Wasps.
Lance and Nyx were riding on the first Wasp. Zelda and Scootaloo rode on the second one. Spike and Apple Bloom rode on the third one.
"Good thinking, Scootaloo. By riding the Wasps, they will lead us to their hive," Zelda said in impressed.
Scootaloo smiled, "I learned from the best and especially it's from Twilight."
Lance nodded, "Alright. Rescue time!"
Lance and his team rode their giant Wasps in flying straight to the latter's destination: Hive...
Within the giant bee's hive, there were corridors of transparent honeycombs. At the last one was where unconscious Shiroi Bai, Jade Adventure and Sweetie Belle lying down on the ground. They moaned and groaned painfully as they slowly got up from the ground. They looked around of their surroundings as they found themselves trapped in the honeycomb prison.
"Where are we?" Sweetie Belle asked in concern. She turned and approached the transparent window-like, "By the looks of this place, I think we're at the bee's hive..."
"Did you say bee hive?!" Shiroi asked in concern. Both Jade and Sweetie Belle turned and looked at her as they nodded their heads. Shaken in nervous while wearing the mask of frightful and fear, she screamed in fear, "WE'RE AT THE BEE'S HIVE!?! BUGS! BUGS! WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE BUGS?!"
Both Jade and Sweetie Belle wore the blank and shock looks while looking at her.
"She's actually afraid of the bugs?!" Jade asked in shock. She sighed, "Great... Just great..."
Sweetie Belle sighed as she turned and looked at the window, "Never mind that. We've gotta get out of here. We've gotta find Nyx and others too. I hope they're okay..."
BOOM! Three unicorns turned and found a hole dug up. Came out of the orange hybrid of lion and pony with crimson and yellowish mane and tail and his Cutie Mark was fierce lion symbol with twin swords. He looked around before he groaned in annoyance.
"Great! Just great! I've gotten into a wrong place again!" The colt was about to go down. Three unicorns came to him and stopped him from going. He turned and looked at them. He groaned, "What is it? I've gotta go and especially outta of this hive! No way I'm gonna stick here."
"Hey... Maybe we should work together to get out of here," Sweetie Belle suggested.
Jade nodded her head, "Yeah. We wanna get outta of this hive."
"Yeah... I don't want to face those bugs! I can't stand on them," Shiroi said nervously yet frightfully.
The colt sighed in annoyance, "I don't mean to be rude, lady. This is the hive - meaning it's the home of the bugs." He hummed calmly, "Then again... I could use some help to get out of here. Plus - I wanna knock that queenie down."
"Queenie?" Jade asked in concern.
"Queen of the Hive? Queen of the Bugs? And of course, she's Xiao Fung's Pet. And trust me... She's not stupid. She's smart. Her name is Ena-Onium. And she controls everything." The colt explained.
"That can't be good..." Jade said in concern.
Sweetie Belle nodded her head, "Yeah... If Lance and his friends faced that monster, there's no way they can survive that."
"You're not serious about it?" Shiroi asked in concern and worry.
"Do we have the choice?" Sweetie Belle asked. Shiroi thought for the moment before she sighed and shook her head. Sweetie Belle turned to the colt, "Okay. We'll follow you to the Queen's chamber and defeat her. There's no telling what else Demon Lord of Wind was up to."
Jade nodded, "Yeah... I don't want to imagine what else Xiao Fung in store."
Shiroi sighed, "Okay... Let's do it. I just hope I can be brave to stand against a giant bug."
"You'll be. Trust me, you can do it. By the way, the name's Blaze Leo." Blaze Leo introduced. He then went deep within the hole, "Follow me. I just hope I can find that Queen's chamber and finish her off. Without that, the bugs will go crazy and wild."
"Alright. Lead the way, Blaze," Jade exclaimed wildly.
Three unicorns jumped and entered the hole as they followed Blaze Leo to the Throne Chamber of Queen Ena-Onium...
Lance and his team rode the giant Wasps in the search of their friends for nearly an hour. They spotted the giant yet demonic European Castle-like with giant hive behind it. They knew that they had found the enemy's location as well as their friends' imprisonment.
As Lance and his friends were riding their flying Wasps, more of Frog Warriors riding the Wasps charged straight at them. The Armored Ants launched their acids, spitting rocks and flamethrower at them. Shadow Mantises and Frog Warriors launched the catapults in firing and shooting them down as well.
Hornet screeched wildly, "Kill them! Kill them all! And bring me Nightmare Moon!"
"So he's back! Okay then..." Lance smirked. He turned to Zelda as he gave Nyx to her, "Zelda, take Crusaders and Spike to the Castle and find the others. I'll hold that monster long enough..."
Zelda nodded, "Alright, young one. But remember... Do not overdue yourself. Hornet can be dangerous and prideful. And sometimes... Pride is the dangerous game. By using that as your advantage, you might able to defeat your enemy..."
Lance sighed as he wielded his Twin Dragon Swords, "Don't worry. I'll be fine."
Zelda, Nyx and Scootaloo rode their flying Wasps. Spike and Apple Bloom followed them by riding theirs. Lance turned and readied to face against Hornet.
"You're ready?" Lance asked arrogantly.
Hornet chuckled evilly, "Trust me... I won't lose so easily." He turned to his allies, "Find those brats. He's mine to deal with..."
Hornet screeched wildly as he charged straight at Lance who hovered and flew over the former. Lance turned and charged at Hornet. Both Lance and Hornet swung their Twin Dragon Swords and Insect Spear at each other hard and quick while dodged each times. They continued battling with each other for few times. They clashed theirs at each other for the moment.
"Give it up, pony boy. You cannot win. I'm the best warrior! I'm the Elite Warrior! You've lost to me easily..." Hornet hissed in arrogant.
Lance groaned in anger but stopped as he remembered what Zelda had told him. He smirked, "I bet you can't even use your head to figure what I was thinking."
"Insolent brat!" Hornet screeched in anger, "I'll teach you lessons!"
"I bet Xiao Fung will replace you because you couldn't beat me for the first round!"
"I will kill you, insolent brat!"
Hornet roared in anger as he swung his spear at Lance who dodged them for few times. Lance smirked as he rode his Wasp to the swamp jungle. Hornet followed him. As Hornet followed Lance, they both battled and swung their weapons at each other hard and quick for eight times. On the ninth, Hornet thrust his spear at Lance who stood there and waited for the moment.
With a smirk, Lance jumped and hovered over Hornet's attack. Lance kicked Hornet on his wasp's head hard. As Hornet slowly getting up, Lance jumped and battled with Hornet. As they both continued swinging their weapons at each other, Lance gave a funny faces at Hornet. Hornet was angered and furious by his attempt. Hornet gave Lance a hard swing in pushing back to the latter's own ride.
Hornet panted in exhaustion, "I'll kill you, brat! And we'll see how's the best! I am the best!"
"That's where you're wrong." Lance spoke calmly. As Hornet impaled his spear right at Lance's chest, the latter flapped his wings and hovered over the former. Lance impaled his Twin Dragon Swords on Hornet's chest, "Pride kills you easily..."
Angered yet impressed by Lance's tactic, Hornet smirked, "You're right... Pride kills you easily..."
Hornet gave the last breathe before having his head down. As Lance removed his blades away from Hornet, he turned and found swarms of Flying Wasps, Armored Ants, Frog Warriors and Shadow Mantises ready to fight with him. He gave a nervous sweat.
"Just great..." Lance said in concern.
Xiao Fung's Demon Army charged at Lance who readied his ride and his Twin Dragon Swords. Lance charged straight at his enemies as he battled and fought against them.
Blaze Leo continued digging the tunnel while his three unicorns followed him. Sensed his destination was there, he dug towards to the top. He and his friends came out from the hole. They found themselves in the large area with lots of honeycombs and honey swamps. They were amazed and surprised by the landscape. They heard the buzzing sound. They turned to their back and found a armored giant Wasp with six eyes, six wings and a long pincer sting worn a strange crown-like. She screeched wildly.
"Is that the Queen?" Sweetie Belle asked in concern.
Jade gulped in concern, "I guess we found her..."
Shiroi shaken and screeched in fear, "That's... One big bug..."
"Yeah... And ugly too..." Blaze Leo nodded, "And trust me, girls. If we don't stop that thing, then we're so dead."
"Not if we stop her first!" Jade exclaimed wildly. As she turned to the front, she yelped in shock and concern. She found more feeble Cockroaches, demonic Hornets and Armored Hercules Beetles. She gulped, "And of course, we need to deal with the bugs."
"Here they come!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed in fear.
"Run away!" Shiroi exclaimed in fear.
Shiroi and her friends turned and ran away from the charging Cockroaches, Hornets and Armored Hercules Beetles. Hornets launched their sting shots at their enemies. Armored Hercules Beetles stroke and crushed their enemies with their pincers. Cockroaches just charged and attacked their enemies quick. Shiroi and her friends dodged and avoided the attacks quickly before they got struck and attacked.
As Shiroi and her friends hidden behind the giant honeycombs while leaving some bugs to charge straight to the west, they breathed heavily while resting. Eno-Omnium screeched wildly as she launched her acid burning at the rocks, allowing her minions spotted and charged at them. Shiroi and her friends quickly ran away.
Shiroi and her friends dodged and avoided the attacks but sometimes hidden behind the rocks and honeycombs. Eno-Omnium launched her acids in burning the rocks and honeycombs, launched the webs in removing the rocks away and smashed the legs in destroying the stones to pieces. Her minions charged and chased after them.
For few times passed, Shiroi and her friends breathed and panted heavily as they tried to rest.
"There's no way we can hide or fight those things. They're too tough!" Jade exclaimed in concern.
Sweetie Belle nodded, "Jade's right. And not to mention, we've got that smart Queen to deal with. She knows every move we make."
"Unless we can outsmart her, we're her meals! And not to mention... we need someone brave enough to pull that off!" Blaze Leo suggested.
Shiroi hissed in concern as she feared and worried for her friends' safety but also had fear of bugs. She wished that there was something she can do for her friends. She turned and glance at Eno-Omnium's position. She found something intrigued her: honey yet oily as well. She gasped in shock as she had the plans. Like Blaze Leo had said, someone had to be brave and clever to outsmart the Queen.
Shiroi took a deep breath as she charged out at once. Her friends gasped in shock and concern. Shiroi taunted and screamed at her minions.
Angered by Shiroi's insults, Eno-Omnium screeched in anger as her minions charged straight at her. Her friends gasped in shock and concern. As the Insect Warriors closed to her, she smirked. She took a deep breathe. She rolled over them before turned and launched her Unicorn Burst at Eno-Omnium's oil.
BOOM! The oil burst into blazing flames as it attacked and burnt Eno-Omnium and her minions. They all screeched in pain and wild. As the blazing flames raging on, they burnt into ashes.
Shiroi breathed heavily as she turned and met up with her friends.
"Way to go, Shiroi! That's some bravery you make," Jade commented.
Sweetie Belle smiled, "Yeah! By burning the oil, you destroyed the Queen and her minions."
Shiroi nodded, "I couldn't have done it without Blaze Leo's help."
"Speaking of help," Sweetie Belle said in concern as she looked around, "Where's Blaze Leo?"
Shiroi and her friends looked around of their surroundings as they found Blaze Leo nowhere to be found...
As Zelda and her remaining friends continued flying through the hallway of Xiao Fung's Castle, they came across the giant frog. Before they could do anything, he launched his powerful blow on them. They were blown away and thrown right on the walls hard.
Nyx and her friends slowly got and stood up as they readied to fight and battle with their enemy. Xiao Fung smirked.
Zelda explained, "Xiao Fung the Demon Lord of Wind. He controls the power of wind. And be very careful, this frog can be a tough opponent to deal with when it comes to be manipulative and tricky. He is known to be fierce too when facing at the battlefield..."
Everyone but Xiao Fung nodded their heads in understanding. They prepared themselves in ready to fight with their enemies.
"We meet at last," Xiao Fung commented, "I suggest surrender, Princess. And I will release your friends from harm. Be wise like your father, my dear..."
Nyx narrowed her eyes in determined, "And if I were to be wise as my father... I will never surrender. I'll do anything to save them without backing down from the fight!"
Xiao Fung chuckled evilly and darkly, "My... my... my... You're quite feisty and bravery than your biological father. Pity that you weren't ready for mine! Wind Storm Blow!"
Xiao Fung gave a hard Wind Storm Blow at Nyx and her friends hard. Nyx and her friends blown straight right to the walls hard. Before they could do anything, he approached to his enemies while blowing them to the walls hard. He quickly struck his punches at them hard and quick. They yelped in shock as they dodged and avoided the attacks quickly and swiftly for few times. They managed to rolled over to the front.
Before Nyx and her friends could do anything, Xiao Fung slammed his fists on the ground in summoning the powerful Tornado Twister Blasts. They stroke right at Nyx and her friends who quickly dodged down.
Xiao Fung then launched his Sonic Wave Attacks in injuring their ears painfully. They struggled in moving and doing anything. As he continued in launching his Sonic Wave attacks, Apple Bloom spotted a rock as she took and threw it right at Xiao Fung's eyes. Scootaloo helped as well. As both Crusaders continued throwing the rocks on his eyes, Spike thrown his Dragon Flame on Xiao Fing's face. Both Zelda and Nyx joined in as they launched their Unicorn Bursts together at his face hard.
Xiao Fung shook his head and groaned in anger, "I will tear you apart! Air Death Suction!"
Xiao Fung absorbed the air and wind to his body, causing Nyx and her friends gasped and breathed heavily like they were losing air. They slowly fell to the ground while panted and struggled in pain and suffocating.
Xiao Fung smirked, "As long as I use this, you cannot win!"
Nyx and her friends moaned and groaned painfully as they struggled to fight.
"Gotta... do... something..." Apple Bloom said weakly.
Zelda moaned, "Must... banish... him..."
Scootaloo grunted in pain as she felt the air is almost out from her lungs. Upon touching something on her right, she saw a hand fan. She looked surprise and shock. Before she could do anything, she heard the feint voice...
'A powerful fan creates a strong wind...'
Scootaloo looked worry and concern before she gasped in surprise. She remembered what Twilight told her about it. She took a deep breathe before showing her firm yet determined eyes.
Scootaloo slowly got up and held her hand fan. She approached and headed to the front. Her friends looked at her as they were worried and concerned about her.
Xiao Fung looked surprise yet shock upon looking at her hand fan, "The Mystic Hand Fan?! How?! How could I not see it?! Nooooooo!"
Scootaloo smirked, "Get ready... to blow away..."
As the hand fan glowed in purple, Scootaloo cried as she swung and blew her hand fan. Hand fan launched the powerful beam at Xiao Fung. Xiao Fung screamed in fear as he was blown away straight to the giant Chinese Door-like.
"I will make you pay!" Xiao Fung cried in anger.
As soon as Xiao Fung entered the door, it closed down. Nyx and her friends gasped as they panted and breathed calmly and gently. They got up from the ground. They cheered wildly and happily before they hugged each other calmly, passionately and happily.
"You did it, Scoot! You saved us!" Apple Bloom cheered.
Spike nodded his head, "Yeah! The way you did... That was amazing! That's so awesome! You swung your hand fan right at him!"
Nyx nodded her head, "Yeah... How did you know Hand Fan is the one?"
Scootaloo smiled, "It's the voice. Gee... I wonder who was that voice? Do you know anything, Zelda? Zelda?" She turned and found Zelda nowhere to be seen. Scootaloo gasped, "Where is she?!"
"She's gone... again..." Nyx said in shock.
"We'll never know what happen to her... But I'm sure glad to have her with us," Spike said happily.
Nyx smiled and nodded, "Yeah... Wherever she was, she'll be there for us to help..."
Turned to her right, Apple Bloom gasped, "Everypony! Look!"
Her friends turned to Apple Bloom's direction, they gasped in surprise yet relief as they saw the arrival of Shiroi, Sweetie Belle and Jade Adventure. Both sides came and hugged each other passionately while chatted happily in seeing with each other alive and safe from danger...
As soon as the battles had ended, Nyx and her friends exited Xiao Fung's Castle and met up with Lance Justicestrike who had defeated all of his enemies. They cheered and chatted happily with each other that they were safe from harm.
Spike gasped, "Aren't we forgetting something?"
"Poisonous Frog's Slime! We forgot about it!" Apple Bloom exclaimed in concern.
Scootaloo groaned, "I can't believe we forgot about it!"
"Did we?" Lance asked slyly. Everyone turned and looked at him. Lance took a vial out and shown the slimy acid-like to his friends, "After some fight with those insects and frogs, I took the slime from that froggy Hornet's. He's quite a useful help to us."
Nyx squealed happily as she jumped and hugged Lance, "Thanks, Lance! You're the best!"
"Now that's take care of it. We should go for the next one," Sweetie Belle squealed happily.
Shiroi nodded her head, "Yeah... Hopefully, no more bugs. I can't stand on them!"
Jade giggled, "Don't worry... We won't get across by them. So, we have nothing to worry about."
"Well now... We'd better get going. Our mission isn't over yet," Lance said calmly.
Everyone cheered happily and agreed with Lance. They packed up their stuffs and headed off to another destination and retrieve the next item.
"Do you think we ever find Zelda and Blaze Leo? I hope they're okay," Sweetie Belle said in concern.
Spike smiled and patted on Sweetie Belle's head, "Don't worry. They'll be fine. I mean if they didn't, we wouldn't be alive."
Sweetie Belle smiled and nodded her head, "Yeah. You're right. I hope we meet again..."
At Xiao Fung's castle, both Zelda and Blaze Leo were standing on the castle's balcony. They looked at Lance and his friends journeying to another destination.
"Wow... They did it. That was impressive to see them beat the Demon Lords. They're awesome," Blaze Leo commented.
Zelda smiled beneath her scarf, "Indeed. Your role is done. Return home now and await for my next calling. I must remained following them. I have to be sure that nothing goes wrong."
"But can't I stay here?" Blaze Leo asked.
Zelda shook her head, "No... But don't worry. When the time comes, you and the rest will come and meet them. Rest assure. This will worth a while, and even for Nyx and her friends. We'll make sure that they stayed on the path."
Blaze Leo nodded his head, "Alright. Got it. I understand. I'll see you later..."
Blaze Leo turned and headed to the bluish portal-like. He disappeared from sights. Zelda then disappeared into shadows...
