Go go Megaforce 2: The Eternal Nightmare

by Time Agent pony


Eternal Night

A week had passed since the merging of the worlds.

"We are a week into this strange cataclysmic event, which some are calling 'Nightmaregeddon', or the 'Ponypocalypse'. Weather today calls for black clouds, bad dreams and frequent dark ranger patrols in our streets," the broadcaster's voice came from the radio,

"Troy, turn it off please" Rarity said, close to tears, her maskcara starting to run down her face.

Troy turned the radio off, "We can't just sit here" Troy said, he and the others were hulled up in Twilight's castle,

"What can we do?" Rainbow Dash said, "without the Elements or the ranger keys we're powerless",

"Yeah, we've got nothing to believe in" Pinkie Pie said, her usual bubbly mane and tail were now deflated and her coat color had now faded to a grayish pink,

"Pinkie's right, Troy" Jake said, "Vrak took our powers and froze Celestia, what else can we do",

"Vrak practically rules supreme" Orion signed, "Sooner or later both worlds will end up like my home-world, Andresia",

"He should have taken me and not my sister" Luna said, staring at the floor.

Emma tried to comfort Luna, it did a little help but she had became buried in her guilt.

"I just hope Apple Bloom and the others are OK" Applejack said,

Just then, the CMC burst in panting. As they entered they were followed by Vinyl Scratch, Octavia, Amethyst, Bon-Bon and Lyra Heartstrings

"Apple Bloom!" Applejack said, relieved to see her sister

"Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo!" Rarity and Rainbow Dash said, as they hugged the last two members of the CMC,

"We barely got them away from the Dark ranger patrol" Vinyl said,

"They cornered them in a back street" Lyra continued,

"Those monsters thought they'd have a little target practise with them" Amethyst added,

"So we grabbed them and just hightailed it out of there" Bon-Bon finished,

"Before they found us the patrol said something about other worlds" Apple Bloom said,

"Other worlds?" Twilight repeated, confused

"Yeah, they were saying something about moving on to the next world" Scootaloo added,

"So how does this help us?" Pinkie said,

"Well, it might explain what Vrak meant when he talked about making partnerships" Noah said, after some thinking.

"So what do we do?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"We have to get to Vrak's castle and stop his darkness from going any further" Troy said,

"How are we supposed to get to the Everfree forest? The streets are patrolled every night" Jake asked,

"The Dark rangers may be smart but some of them are stupid, so we should be able to slip past them" Troy replied,

"And the ones we can't?" Gia asked,

"Leave that to me" Twilight answered,

"Alright, time to go spy" Pinkie said, back to her normal cheerful self and somehow in her Spy outfit


In the floating castle of the two sisters, Vrak sat at Celestia's throne, gazing at various windows into other worlds,

"So many worlds to spread darkness too" Vrak said, to himself.

The A-squad Red ranger entered and bowed before her master, "Master, the guests you requested have arrived" she reported,

"Show them in, please" Vrak commanded,

A-squad Red nodded and the other Dark rangers showed three figures into the room: the first was dressed in a red and yellow dictator uniform and dark blue glasses the second was dressed in a white lab coat and red tie; the last figure was something different, his whole body was made of metal and a light green glass dome made up the top half of his head.

"Gentlemen" Vrak began "I bet you're wondering why I have invited you here today",

"I think that's the question that's on all our minds" the first figure answered,

"Well, truth be told" Vrak continued "we all share a common interest"

"Interest, what interest?" the second figure asked,

"We all want to conquer and enslave and rule your worlds with an iron fist" Vrak said, "yet time and again you have been stopped by some young upstart that gets in you way and wrecks everything".

"You don't have to remind us" the third figure,

"But, with my help" Vrak continued, "you can have the power to not only crush your enemies, you will be able to have total control of your worlds",

"What's the catch?" the first figure asked,

"The catch, Doctor?" Vrak asked, "you and the other two only need to lend me and my forces some of your resources, after I have enslaved this world I will give you some of my power to do your will"

"I'd have to be crazy to say no!" the first figure said, a creepy smile on his face,

"A chance to show Thomas who is the better intellect, I'm in!" the second figure agreed,

"Well, when in Rome..." the third figure finished,

Vrak smiled. "It is good to know that we have an understanding, you will be escorted to your lab to begin work".

The three figures were walked out of the room,

"Master, I know it's not my place" A-squad red said, as soon as the figures had left, "Do you really think that it is wise to trust those three?"

"I don't" Vrak replied, "the doctors are but pawns, the first of many",

"besides" he continued, "the're knowledge of robotics will be a most useful tool to me",

"But you have me and the rest of the Dark rangers, why would you need machines to help?" A-squad red asked,

"Creating more Dark rangers uses up too much energy, using machines will be so much more easier then using my own energy" Vrak replied,

"Understood, master" A-squad red replied, and left.

Vrak returned to looking at the windows to other worlds, "So many pawns to sacrifice..." he muttered to himself and smiled.


Back with the Rangers and the ponies, the group were still in the Everfree forest, nearing Vrak's castle, "This has been easy" Troy said,

"Yes, too easy" Twilight replied,

"I agree with Twilight" Applejack said, "It's like Vrak wants us to get this far",

Something moved, "What was that?" Rarity asked,

Moments later, a laser blast flew out of one of the nearby bushes striking a tree, destroying it.

"Sweet Celestia! What was that" Rainbow Dash cried,

The figure who fired the shot, stepped into the open, so he was more visible,

He, or rather it, was coloured green and black with one red eye set into its helmet-like head. One hand had been replaced with arm cannon; its other, and only, hand held a shield.

"That doesn't look like an X Borg" Jake said,

"And I don't know any creature other than you that looks or even walks on two legs" Twilight replied,

"Who cares, we can take him" Rainbow Dash commented,

More figures identical to one that stood before them stepped into view,

"OK never mind" Rainbow Dash said, her cockiness fading,

"Anypony got a plan?" Fluttershy asked, trebling as the figure closed in,

"I have one" Noah said, without warning he hit one of the figure's shields, causing it to fall backwards. "RUN!" he cried, without a word the group charged out of there,

The figures began firing at the group, but only managing to hit each other and not their targets,

After running for ages the group finally reached the floating Castle of the Two Sisters,

"So how are we supposed to get inside without getting seen" Rarity said,

"More importantly, how are we supposed to get up there? We don't all have wings, remember?" Rainbow Dash interrupted,

Just then one of the figures came stumbling out of the forest, Before it was could attack, it collapsed.

"It's a robot!" Noah gasped, looking at the figure more closely, "It's circuitry is more advanced than anything I've seen",

"And it might be just what we need to get inside" Twilight said, using her magic to take all the wiring and endo-skeleton from the robot,

"What do you mean?" Orion asked,

"One of us can use the armour as a disguise to get us inside and act like they caught us" Twilight explained,

"I'll do it" Troy said, beginning to put the armour and other parts on,

"OK then, Let's go" Twilight said, after Troy was suited up.

Just then a staircase extended from the castle to the ground, Troy and the others headed inside,

Once inside, A-squad Blue greeted them, "So you and the other Sniper Joes brought them in?" he asked,

Troy nodded, "Take them to Vrak, he will be pleased" Blue commanded,

Troy marched the others alone some corridors, before taking the disguise off, "I think we're in the clear" he said.

Just then there was a clanking of metal feet approaching them, around the corner behind them came another robot. This one was different than the ones outside, its body was round in shape and its head formed the top half. Its legs, much like its arms, were long and curved. In place of its right hand was a laser cannon.

"Intruders... bad... E-li-mi-nate intruders.." the robot stuttered,

"We've got to move!" Troy cried, as the robot walked closer to them, laser cannon looking ready to fire,

The group dashed down a bunch of corridors, until they came to split in the path,

"We have to split up" Troy said, as the sound of the robot got closer,

"Agreed" Noah replied,

Troy and Twilight headed one way while the rest of the group headed the other way.

Troy and Twilight had not been running long, when suddenly a portal cracked opened in front of them,

"What do we do now?" asked Twilight,

"I say that we go though the portal, maybe we came find some help" Troy replied,

"But we don't know where we will ended up" Twilight stated,

"Well, lets hope it's somewhere we can find help" Troy finished,

With that, Troy and Twilight ran into the portal, which closed behind them.

Back with the others, they had been caught and brought before Vrak,

"Welcome rangers" Vrak smirked, "how's life?,

"Where is the red ranger and the princess of friendship?" he continued,

"You won't get anything out of us" Rainbow Dash said, defiantly

"The Master asked you a question!" A-squad Red said, shoving her laser blaster in Rainbow Dash's face "and unless you wanna end up in the dungeon, you'll tell him what he wants to know!"

No one spoke, "Have it your own way" Vrak said, he snapped his fingers and A-squad Red got ready to fire.

She was about to fire, when a ball of electricity came out of nowhere hitting her and sending her flying backwards,

"Who dares?!" Vrak thundered,

"We do" a voice replied,

"You!' Vrak seethed.

For there, standing behind a portal that had just opened, were Troy and Twilight. They were followed by some other figures, they looked human but some looked strange.

"Destroy these interlopers" Vrak command, Red, Yellow and Green A-squad readied their weapons,

One of the figures fired his arm cannon and Vrak and Dark rangers froze,

"You guys, OK?" Troy asked, as he and Twilight helped the others get to their feet,

"Yeah, but Troy, Twilight who are your friends?" Jake asked,

"Oh right, everyone meet Mega man, Proto man, Flash man, Wood man, Air man, Spark man, Hard man, Bubble man, Snake man and Shadow man" Troy answered, introducing the figures

"They used to be evil but they but they got a second at doing good. They agreed to help us" added Twilight,

"Well, once we got over the whole talking pony thing" continued Bubble man

"And the whole being from another world thing too" finished Shadow man,

"They are from the same world as those robot we encountered in the forest, we used some of the technology in their world to get back here" Twilight added,

"Anyway" Noah said, "Flash man, what did you do with your weapon a second ago?" he asked,

"My weapon specialises in stopping time, but it only lasts so long" Flash man replied,

"I suggest we get moving" Proto man said,

"Agreed" Troy replied,

"To save time I'll teleport us back to the castle" Twilight said,

"Before that, I need to get something from one of the labs I saw while we were being brought here" Noah said,

"Right, Snake man and I will came with you" Shadow man said.

When Noah, Snake man and Shadow man reached the lab, Noah grabbed a object the looked like a small hand gun,

They then rejoined the others and Twilight teleported anyone out and into the castle, before Flash man's Time Stopper wore off.


Back at the castle, Luna, the others ponies and the CMC, were pleased and relieved to see everyone back safely.

They were a bit confused by Mega man and the other Robot Masters at first, but Troy and Twilight explained who they were so everyone was cool.

"You OK?" Proto man asked as he approached, he had noticed Luna isolating herself a little from the other ponies. The others discussed the next plan of action,

"I feel like I am responsible for what has happened to my world" Luna replied,

Proto man sat down next to the princess of night, "I know what your going through" he said,

"How can you know anything about doing something that you never meant to create?" Luna replied,

Proto man took off his helmet and looked Luna in the eye, "I have done somethings I wish I hadn't done. Trust me, I know how you feel" he replied,

"You have?" Luna asked, a little curious,

"At the time I wasn't sure what my purpose was, I wasn't sure who to turn to or what was the right thing to do, one other time… was a little more serious" Proto man continued,

"What happened?" Luna asked, as Proto man's mind went back a few years.

"I was forced by a maniac to kidnap a little girl to help him blackmail her father" Proto man replied, causing Luna’s mouth to fall open, "I learned the hard way actions have consequences. But I was lucky enough to have a brother who pulled me out of that darkness..." the red robot perked up as he recalled the things the his brother, Rock also known as Mega man had shown him. He himself had been able to help Mega man in return, "It really touched me, my brother was someone who was there for me when times are grim. Showing me that he trusted and believed in me—showing me that I wasn't alone. Smiling to the very end".

A small smile crossed Luna's face, she sensed the robot's fighting spirit "Thank you, Proto man, I feel a lot better now" she said,

"Hey no problem, and please, call me Blues" Proto man replied, he noticed Mega man waving him over and rejoined he group,

"So what's the plan?" he asked,

"Well, with the device Noah took from Vrak's lab we have an opportunity to follow me and Twilight's example" Troy explained, "while Vrak is distracted by all the potential worlds, we'll go to those worlds, recruit the heroes of those worlds, stop the dark rangers and anything else Vrak throws at us, cut his supply line and then overwhelm him and his army with numbers".

"That sounds like plan" Air man said, the other robot masters nodded in agreement,

"Everyone who can't fly on their own I've got item 2 jet boards to spare" added Mega man,

"Vrak won't just let us fly by" Wood man said, he was a bit concerned,

"I think at this point we're beneath Vrak's notice" Twilight replied,

"Then it's settled" Troy said, Noah handed him the small hand gun, with a few shots several portals opened up.

The team separated into groups, the ones who couldn't fly stepped onto a red jet board.

"Happy hunting everyone" Troy said, as he, Twilight and Air man entered one of the portals.


Back at the floating castle,

"They took the prototype portal device, my lord" A-squad Red reported,

"So the mice wish to enter my maze? So be it" Vrak replied, smiling.
