//------------------------------// // Chapter 4 // Story: Equestria’s Super Android // by DryvernX //------------------------------// Super 17 and the Cmc has just gotten out of Chrysalis's kingdom. They were walking out the gate Super 17 broke, but not before sending all the Changelings and Queen Chrysalis out through it. Queen Chrysalis was hiding behind Fluttershy, shaking in fear. She was no match against him, and got beaten, along with her Changelings. The Mane 6 have just arrived, and were about to lay a plan, to infiltrate Chrysalis's kingdom, but then they met Super 17 once again, with the Cmc right beside him. The Mane 6 were a little shocked, that they have met up with Super 17 once again. And at a wrong place, and at the wrong time, for them. They heard the Cmc talking with him. "That was so awesome, Super 17. You were all, BAM take this, and those Changelings were like, AARRGGHH have mercy. You would make a good member for the Cutie Mark Crusaders." Sweetie belle said while praising Super 17. Super 17 looked prideful at the praise he got from the three fillies. "Well, i do a lot, to get praise." Super 17 said. "Can you teach us those moves you did?" Apple bloom asked the android. Super 17 looked slightly confused at her. "Does those horses even know Ki?" Super 17 thought to himself, he doubted those horse creatures could do Ki techniques like he could. "I do admit, that what you did was awesome, but still not as awesome as..." Scootaloo said, before seeing the Mane 6, including Rainbow dash. "Rainbow dash!" Scootaloo said, finishing her last sentence. "Uuhh... Yeah, we know Scootaloo. You will say Rainbow dash can do it better." Apple bloom said, while looking at her friend. "No, not that. Rainbow dash, and the others are here!" Scootaloo yelled out happily to her friends. The three fillies ran over to their respective sister, hugging them really hard. "Oh Sweetie belle, i'm glad that you're alright." Rarity said to her little sister, while hugging her. "I sure am Rarity." Sweetie belle said. "Apple bloom, you gave me a mighty scare back there." Applejack said to Apple bloom while hugging her tightly. "I'm sorry that i worried you so much, Applejack." Apple bloom said. "It's good, that you're alright squirt." Rainbow dash said to Scootaloo, while in midair. "I knew you would come to save us... Even through we've just gotten free." Scootaloo said, while looking over at Super 17. The Mane 6's faces turned serious when they saw once again Super 17. Super 17 looked over to the 6 ponies, and Queen Chrysalis, still hiding behind Fluttershy. He instantly recognized them, as the same ponies, who blasted the rainbow colored blast at him, which he absorbed. It also gave him the thought that the new emotions he has begun to feel, was connected to the rainbow. "So. We meet again." Super 17 said, while slowly walking over to the Mane 6. The Mane 6 in respond took their respective fighting poses,except Fluttershy, she was still a little afraid of him, fortunately they remembered Fluttershy's advice, not to judge him too quickly. The Cmc was slightly confused by their conversation. "Okay buster, now that our sisters are freed from this scum." Rainbow said, while glaring at Chrysalis. "Explain to us, what are you doing here?" Rainbow asked him. "Just here to search for a powerful energy i felt in this castle." Super 17 responded, while glancing over at Chrysalis, she shook in fear, just as he looked at her. Boy Chrysalis looks really afraid of Super 17. "Alright, alright, i surrender!" Chrysalis shouted to him, in fear. "Just leave me alone!" Chrysalis said in fear. Super 17, didn't respond to Chrysalis's pity, and walked closer and closer to her. But the Mane 6 blocked his path. "Super 17! Explain to us what you have done to Chrysalis." Twilight said to him. "I was just testing her powers. They were weaker than i expected." Super 17 said. The ponies was a little shocked. Super 17 has not only easily defeated Queen Chrysalis, but also her entire swarm of Changelings. How powerful is this guy? The Cmc was a little curious about the conversation, and eventually joined in. "Uuhh, excuse me. Do you know Super 17?" Sweetie belle asked her sister. "Yes, we know him alright. This ruffian bested us in combat, including the princesses." Rarity said. The crusaders were a little shocked, of his power, but not so much, since he already showed what he could do to Queen Chrysalis, and her swarm. "Now, before we continue our conversation..." Twilight said, before glancing over to Chrysalis. "... We will deal with you." Twilight said, with a mischievous and evil smile in her face, walking closer and closer to her, with her friends joining in, who also had mischievous and evil smiles in their faces. Super 17 didn't bother to join in. "She means nothing to me. I don't care." Super 17 said, clearly not interested in what the Mane 6 had in store for Chrysalis. "What... What are you doing to me? Help my Changelings. HELP!" She shouted to her Changelings, who was still unconscious. She was overwhelmed by the Mane 6's shadows, and everything turned black for Chrysalis. Later, Chrysalis, along with her Changelings, was captured in a room... Inside her own dungeon. None of the Changelings could get in or out. But the worst part, was a Pinkie pie costume, asking endless annoying riddles and songs. "What word rhymes with orange? While you think about it, let me sing a song! La la la! This is the song that will neveeeer end." The pinkie pie costume said, much to Queen Chrysalis's dismay, who has many bandages all over her. "Door hinge?" One of the Changelings said, trying to solve the riddle. "Door tinge?" Another Changeling suggested. "Shut up all of you. Just shut up." Queen Chrysalis yelled over to her Changelings. "One day Super 17. I will get you back! Just you wait." Chrysalis thought in her mind. All of them, were outside the kingdom. The Mane 6 looked at Super 17 with serious faces. "Okay, now that Chrysalis is out of the way. Can you explain to us, why you've freed our sisters?" Rarity asked him. The Mane 6 were ready for his answer, once he began opening his mouth. "I just saved them from their imprisonment." Super 17 simply responded. The Mane 6 was surprised by his answer, first he was seeing them as nothing more as inferior creatures, and now he has just saved some of them. But his answer was still questionable. "And can ya explain to us, why ya saved them?" Applejack asked. The Mane 6, and the Cmc looked at him. "Because... Because..." Super 17 said, but he had a hard time answering the question, since he thought that was his own personal business. "You know what, that's none of your business. I just do things." Super 17 said. The Mane 6 was confused at his answer, but also a little annoyed, since he haven't told exactly why. "That answer doesn't make any sense." Pinkie pie said. "Like i said, none of your business." Super 17 said, he now began to walk away, and was soon ready to take flight again. But then, his pants was pulled weakly by the Cmc. "Wait!" Apple bloom said, while still pulling him. Super 17 stopped walking at once. "We still want to know more about you." She said, her friends nodded in agreement. "You saved us, and the Cmc are now at ya service." Apple bloom said. The Mane 6 sighed at them. And then, Sweetie belle got an idea. "Wait, do you have a place to live?" Sweetie belle asked. Super 17 looked at her confused. "No. Why?" Super 17 asked confused. "Because you can come with us, to Ponyvile." Sweetie belle said, her friends nodded in agreement, the Mane 6 however, had their jaws fall down really hard to the ground. "WHAT?!" The Mane 6 all yelled out in confusion. Even Super 17 looked at her weird. "Why should i go with you?" He asked, the Cmc sighed, and then they got on their knees, and gave them some of the most cutest puppy eyes. "Please?" The Cmc pleaded, while Super 17 was immune to their puppy eyes, he felt that it may be a good opportunity to learn more about his new emotions. "Fine whatever." Super 17 sighed. The Cmc got back on their hooves, and cheered. "YAY!" They cheered. "We're gonna have so much fun together." They yelled out happily. Then the Mane 6, pulled them over to their side. "Uhm... Can we have a word with you three?" Twilight said to them. The Cmc was confused at their behavior toward Super 17. "Uhm, could you give us a second Super 17?" Apple bloom asked him. He rolled his eyes, simply not caring much about their upcoming conversation with the Mane 6. "We'll take that as a yes." Scootaloo said. The Mane 6 was now talking with the Cmc in a circle, and Twilight had the first word. "Girls, are you crazy?" Twilight almost yelled at them. "We're not taking this guy with us back to Ponyvile." Twilight said. "I have to agree with Twilight, i don't think this ruffian should take a step on Ponyvile." Rarity said. "I don't get it. You seem to know Super 17. But you don't seem to like him that much." Sweetie belle said. "Well, has this critter mentioned that he has beaten up both the princesses, and us?" Applejack asked. "No. But Rarity did." Sweetie belle simply said. "And we've seen him take on Chrysalis. You should have seen it." She said. Rarity sighed at the respond. "Well, maybe we should give him a chance." Fluttershy said, the Mane 6 looked at her, but they remembered what she said, back in Canterlot. While the Cmc happily smiled at Fluttershy. "Give him a chance now?! What has he proven, that he deserves a chance by us?" Rainbow dash asked her fellow pegasus friend. "Because he just saved your sisters from Chrysalis." Fluttershy simply answered Rainbow's question. The other 5 thought for a while, and then looked at the Cmc. "Okay, you three. We will give him a chance. But we still need to hold an eye on him." Twilight said to the Cmc. "YAY!" They cheered again. "And that doesn't mean we will fully trust him." Rainbow said, while the others nodded in agreement. "Now let's go home." Pinkie said. "But i will still throw him a "welcome to Ponyvile" party, once we get home." Pinkie thought in her head. "Come on Super 17!" Apple bloom yelled out to Super 17. He followed them in respond, since he don't know where Ponyvile is. "This may be interesting." He thought to himself. The journey home was long, just as long as the way to Chrysalis's kingdom was. On the way, Twilight tried to ask Super 17 a few personal questions, like who was your parents? What planet do you come from? Are you a martial artist? What is your favorite food/book/hobby? But Super 17 didn't answer any of the questions, due to not being interested, much to Twilight's dismay. And finally, they were home, good old Ponyvile. The damages, and the icky cocoons were gone, Ponyvile looked like it were once again. "Not a bad town." Super 17 thought to himself. He then saw another familiar pony appear, it was the princess of the moon Luna. She was approaching the Mane 6, and the Cmc. "It's good thou are back." Luna said. Not noticing Super 17 behind them. "We see thou have succeeded in your quest, in rescuing your siblings?" Princess Luna said to them. "Yes, they're freed Princess Luna. But..." Twilight said a little sceptical, she was not sure what to say, since they have brought with them, the same guy who easily defeated Celestia, Luna, and Queen Chrysalis. "What is it Twilight?" Luna asked Twilight. All of the Mane 6 were worried, they were not sure, if they should say, that Super 17 is right behind them. "Oh, she wanted say, that Super 17 helped us from her." Scootaloo said. The Mane 6 was shocked, at Scootaloo's answer. Princess Luna was quiet, very quiet. Until she became a lot more serious in her face. "Super 17 is here?! Where is he?" Luna said, with seriousness. "Right here, your majesty." Super 17 said, while coming out of the shadows. Luna gritted her teeth at him. "So thou have returned." She said, Super 17 smirked at her. "Look, i know what happened last time, i will behave... for now." Super 17 grinned at her. Princess Luna gritted her teeth more in respond. "THOU WILL NOW WITNESS THE TRUE POWER OF THE..." Princess Luna shouted out, with her royal Canterlot voice. But it was cut off by the Cmc. "Wait, Princess Luna, wait!" Apple bloom shouted to her. Princess Luna stopped at once. Looking at her confused. "It's... Kinda of a long story." Twilight said, with a nervous smile. Later, when the Mane 6 have explained, what has happened during their journey to Chrysalis's kingdom. They explained that when they have just arrived to the kingdom, they were about to plan a strategy, but then, the Super 17 intervened, and did all the work. And somehow, he has agreed the Cmc's proposal in going to Ponyvile with them. Princess Luna was very surprised at Super 17's actions. She glanced over at him, relaxing on a tree. Even through he barely needed any rest, he still kinda enjoyed it. Princess Luna has also called Princess Celestia out from Canterlot. So she can personally(hopefully without anymore fighting) meet with Super 17. And speak of the devil, Princess Celestia arrives in her chariot. The chariot landed on the ground, and Princess Celestia walked out of the chariot. She then walked over to Twilight. "My favorite student. It's good that you're alright." Princess Celestia said to her student. Twilight smiled in response. "I know." Twilight said. Then Celestia turned over to Super 17, still sitting on the tree. She walked over to him. "Super 17." She said to him. Super 17 opened his eyes, and saw another familiar face. "Oh you." He said, not much interested. The ponies got a little worried at 17's behavior to Celestia. Celestia however was very calm. "I just wanted to talk to you. Like making a few apologies." Celestia said. That got Super 17 enough attention, to jump out of the tree, and talk with her more personally. "Okay, what do you want to say then?" He asked the solar princess. "Well, i would like to apologize our hostile behavior to you at first." She said. "We didn't know if you were friend or foe." She also said. "Well, then you're kinda of a slow learner." He simply joked. Celestia chuckled a little. "We would also like to ask you a few questions." Celestia said. But Super 17 was not really into answering some personal questions right now. "Sorry, but those personal questions cannot be today." He said. The ponies looked more, and more worried. Celestia however took it quietly. "I understand Super 17. You may have had a rough day today." She said to him. Super 17 didn't really look tired, heck he doesn't even feel tired. "It's cool, i'm not really that tired, just not in the mood of answering questions." He said. Celestia understood, and smiled. "Very well, perhaps another time." She said. "By the way, i have also heard from my student, that you have saved three fillies today." She told the super android. "I must say, that's very surprising." She said, while Super 17 was leaning back at the tree. "Well, i can do lots of stuff, sometimes." Super 17 simply said. "I guess, you want to have some peace and quiet now?" She asked him. Super 17 nodded. She then walked back to the Mane 6, Luna, and the Cmc. "I guess Fluttershy's prediction from him maybe true." Celestia said, with some of them either nodding, or a little skeptical. "I don't know princess." Rainbow dash said. "I don't really fully trust that guy yet." She said, while pointing at the android. "Nor do you have to, Rainbow dash." Celestia responded to Rainbow. "But maybe, he has potential to do more good things in Equestria's future." Celestia said. The others looked at her, beginning to get confused at what she's saying. "Uuhh, princess. What are ya trying to say?" Applejack asked the solar princess. "I'm saying my dear Applejack, that maybe Super 17 should learn a little about friendship." Celestia responded. The others looked at each other, and became more worried about Celestia's decision on Super 17's future, in Equestria.
