Game Of Shells part 1

One day, Everyone was training at the makeshift dojo in Sweet Apple acres. They were fighting cardboard cutouts of villains from the past. Rainbow, Sunset, and Karai stood before a cardboard cutout of Shredder while Rainbow imitated his voice.

“You girls and turtles stood in my way for the last time!”

“This is for Master Splinter!” Sunset declared as she and Karai tag teamed and knocked it down.

Pinkie stood by cardboard cutouts of Kraang droids, imitating them. “It is the ones known as the Turtles and Rainbooms! Destroy for Kraang!” She then joined everyone else fighting more cardboard cutouts of Kraang droids. Bright Eyes and Lancer were knocking a couple down as Blade Swipe timed them.

“Very good. You’re both getting faster every run. Just keep a keen sight. You never know what your opponent has up their sleeves.” He advised.

“Yes, Blade.” Bright Eyes bowed.

Lancer did the same. “You got it.”

“Now with your weapons!” Blade added as the two drew their weapons. Bright Eyes had her nunchucks while Lancer had a pair of twin short handled Nagatana spears.

When the group decided to take a breather, Blade turned to Bright Eyes. “You’re doing good. Sandbar and the others trained you very well.”

Bright Eyes smiled as Leo turned to Applejack.

“I’m glad Granny Smith allowed us to setup a dojo out here.”

“And it’s in a shady area so no one will see you fellas.” Applejack assured.

“And we won’t repeat the green man incident, right Mikey? Mikey?” Raph looked around.

Everyone looked to see Mikey playing a video game on a small device obviously not paying attention.

“And I thought Sunset had a thing for video games.” Rarity whispered to April.

Sunset walked over to Mikey and snagged the device from him. “Mikey, what did I say about playing my gamer without asking!”

“I can’t help it! I was close on beating your high score in ‘Kung fu Carpenters’!” Mikey whined.

April scolded him. “Mikey, we need to prepare in case we face someone like Shredder.”

“Yeah! The last thing I want, is to get my butt kicked by some new guy.” Casey agreed.

“Like that Ultimate Ninja creep!” Raph reminded.

“And in case you might have forgotten, there's still the rogue Equestrian magic on the loose.” Twilight added.

Donnie continued. “Exactly. Every time we deal with Equestrian magic, it's always something completely unpredictable and gets us in trouble.”

Bright Eyes couldn't help but giggle. “You mean, like when you guys got humiliated by Strawberry Prank Cake?”

“And got tied up by those toys? And almost got wasted by the Party Wagon?” Lancer joined in.

Donnie deadpanned. “Exactly!”

“So we need to train for whenever it strikes.” Karai said.

Leo got up. “And speaking of which, let's get back to training. That means you too, Mikey.”

“Oh, alright.” Mikey groaned as he gave the gamer back to Sunset. “Besides, I already beat Fluttershy's high score on that squirrel game that Sunset was totally bad at.”

“Wait, what?!” Frowning, Sunset put her gamer down and left with the others. But as they all went back to training, a wisp of Equestrian Magic flew down and touched the gamer. While training, Mikey, Sunset, and even Lancer explained to Bright Eyes and Blade Swipe about video games. They kept training for about an hour before Leo cried.

“Okay, Everyone. Take five.”

“Anymore training and Leo would have a Ninja boot camp.” Raph griped sarcastically.

“Bradford would’ve begged to differ.” Karai pointed out.

As the group took a breather, Bright Eyes spoke to Sunset. “Um Sunset. Could I try that gamer thingy?”

“Well since you asked...” Sunset pondered as she reached for her gamer but felt nothing. Then she looked and saw it gone. “Where did it go? Mikey!”

Mikey waved his arms in denial. “I didn’t touch it! Not after Leo made me train! I swear!”

“Well it didn’t grow legs and walk away!” Raph glared.

Rarity remembered that a certain someone she knew had come with her to watch her train and spoke. “I think I know who took it...”

Before long, Everyone found Sweetie Belle playing the gamer. In a game, she was battling something big before her avatar got roasted by fire and was destroyed. “NOOOO! I was so close!”

“Oh, Sweetie Belle!” came Rarity's voice.

Sweetie Belle froze and slowly lowered the gamer to see her sister's tapping foot and looked up into her stern face. “Busted.”

“How many times I have to told you to ask permission before using our devices?! Remember the Anon-A-miss incident?”

Sweetie Belle pleaded with her sister. “Sorry, but I brought over my favorite game and couldn’t wait to play it.”

“What’s it called?” Bright Eyes asked curiously.

“Super Quest.”

Mikey perked up. “No way?! I play that game too!”

“So do I!” Lancer chimed in.

“Ooo! What's it about?” Pinkie asked.

Mikey explained. “It's a fantasy roleplay game, where you go on all kinds of adventures and get to play as all sorts of characters. I'm an elf. PartyElf!”

“And I'm a Winged Paladin. Wind Walker!” Lancer added.

“Sounds like fun.” Shini smiled.

Raph just rolled his eyes. “That just reminds me of that Malachi guy.”

“Malachi? That mutant wizard guy you met while larping?” Rainbow asked.

“And turned Raph's head into a turkey?!” Casey snickered.

“Yep. That'd be him.” Donnie sighed.

“What do you play as Sweetie Belle?” Bright Eyes asked Sweetie Belle who showed through the gamer.

“I'm... Princess Miner! My avatar is dressed as a princess. And my weapon is a miner pick-axe.”

“Aha-lame!” Raph coughed before he was elbowed by Rarity.

Blade Swipe was equally curious as Bright Eyes. “So what do you do in this Super Quest?”

“Basically, you roam the land, battling monster, witches, dragons, and other players.” Mikey summed up.

Lancer added. “And sometimes players are given quests that'll lead them to treasure!”

“Well, that certainly sounds very interesting.” Fugitoid looked over Sweetie Belle’s shoulder.

It is! I was just battling a ferocious fire-breathing dragon! And got roasted.” She sighed.

“Hmm. Reminds me of Ogres and Oubliettes back in Equestria.” Blade recalled.

“You played that game?” Sunset asked the mutant pony.

“Back when me and Melody were foals. I was offered a couple times by Spike to join him, Big Mac, and Discord, but I could never find the time due to my duties in the Royal Guard.”

Spike thought for a second. “Remind me to join them if we go to Equestria again.”

“We'll think about that, Spike.” Twilight petted him.

“Hmm. So what else is in this game?”

Just then, Twilight's Magic Tracker started buzzing. “Guys, the Tracker's picked up some Equestrian Magic!” she said, getting everyone’s attention.

“Where?” Donnie asked

Twilight Sparkle looked around with her tracker. “Somewhere close!”

“Well at least that narrows it down.” Raph grumbled.

Just then Sweetie Belle noticed that the gamer was glowing. “Um, guys!”

Everyone looked just as the player console levitated up and a large portal erupted from the device and Sweetie Belle started to get pulled in.

“Sweetie Belle!” Rarity cried, rushing to save her sister.

“Help!”

Rarity grabbed hold of her sister but she too started being pulled in as well. Everyone each grabbed onto her and pulled, but they ended up being sucked in. While Pinkie Pie, on the other hand, just bounced right in. “Weeeee!”

Once Pinkie jumped in, the portal closed, and the game player dropped to the ground.


Soon everyone was screaming and rocketing through a vortex before there was a bright flash and they crash-landed on the ground. Leo felt his head as got up.

“Ugh! Where are we?”

Everyone got up and looked around. They were standing in a field surrounded by trees with a dirt path next to them.

Mikey then noticed something about them. “Guys look! I’m getting that Deja vu feeling all over again!”

The Turtles looked at themselves and saw they were dressed in their LARP costumes again. Leo was a knight, Raph a barbarian, Donnie a wizard, and Mikey was an elf.

“Oh no! Not again!” Raph griped.

“Guys! Look!” The turtles looked to see not only them, but the others were in LARP outfits as well. April was dressed like a hooded thief. Casey was dressed as armored warrior and had a helmet that looked just like his hockey mask, Karai was dressed as a barbarian, Shini was dressed as a top hatted witch with a cane that had and eye on it similar to her hypnoball, and Fugitoid was dressed as a pirate.

“What in tarnation?!” they heard Applejack’s voice.

She and her friends were in LARP outfits too. She was dressed as an archer, Sunset as a gypsy, Twilight as a wizardess, Rarity in a aquamarine cloak with diamonds, Rainbow as a hooded Paladin, and Pinkie as a jester.

“What's going on?” April asked.

“Where are we?” Karai added.

“And why are we dressed like this?” Twilight looked at herself.

“Look at me!” Everyone looked to see Sweetie Belle was dressed as an armored princess and was carrying a pick-axe. “I’m dressed just like my Super Quest avatar!”

“Me too!” Lancer walked up dressed as a Paladin with wings.

“And check me out!” Everyone saw Spike was dressed in his own wizard outfit.

“Where did we go? And why are we dressed like we're in some fantasy convention?” Applejack asked again.

“I think I know.” Donnie pondered.

“Me too.” Twilight joined in. “Us dressed as fantasy characters....”

“And those guys dressed as their avatars.”

Both of them looked at each other. “We're in the Super Quest game!”

“What?” Everyone gasped.

“Please let this be a bad dream!” Raph went to a tree to hit himself on it, trying to wake himself up.

Twilight continued. “And it looks like it gave us our own LARP outfits.”

“Awesome!” Rainbow cheered.

“What lovely costumes!” Rarity admitted.

Casey was equally excited. “This is so metal! Man, Keno, Zach and Caitlyn are gonna be so mad for missing out.”

Fugitoid then noticed they were two members short. “Has anyone seen Blade Swipe and Bright Eyes?”

“Over here!” They heard Blade Swipe call.

Everyone looked to see the two walk up to them. They were both as their pony selves.

“I guess we’re playing ourselves.” Bright Eyes shrugged.

Blushing, Lancer whispered to the Turtles and Casey. “Is it weird that I still think she looks cute as a pony?” Neither of them knew how to answer that.

“This is so awesome! I can't believe we're actually inside a video game!” Sunset gleamed.

Mikey joined her. “Yeah, girl! We get to go on quests, battle adversaries, and collect treasure!”

“Mikey.” Raph grumbled.

Sweetie Belle jumped. “I bet the power ups are amazing up close!”

“Sweetie Belle!” Rarity quoted.

“The boss battles must be EPIC!” Lancer added.

“Lancer?” Bright Eyes waved.

“Talk about special edition!” Sunset continued.

“Sunset.” Applejack huffed.

Sunset, Mikey, Lancer, and Sweetie Belle then high fived. “Awesome Sauce!”

“Guys!” Everyone cried. The five soon stopped geeking out.

“If you guys are done geeking out, then perhaps we should focus on getting out of here!” Karai pointed out.

“Yeah! Uh, how are we gonna get out, exactly?” Applejack wondered.

Twilight Sparkle spoke up. “I think I may have a way. If I use my magic tracker to-“ She paused and felt around for her tracker. But she soon discovered, to her horror, that it wasn't there. “Oh, no! It's gone!”

“What!?” Everyone gasped.

“It must have fallen off when we were in that vortex!”

“Then it probably landed somewhere in this world.” April figured.

“How big is this world?” Sunset asked Sweetie Belle.

“Well...” She pulled up a map, that instantly doubled in size, and pointed to a spot on it. “That's us, right there.”

“Holy Chalupa! This world is huge!” Donnie jawdropped.

“Duh, there are thousands of players playing it, it's gotta be big!” Pinkie huffed.

“Well, that's just great! How the heck are we supposed to find it?! It could be anywhere!” Raph griped.

“I think I know where it might've ended up.” Mikey pointed to a large town on the map. “The City of Lore! The biggest village on the map. It's the best place to get weapons, armor, potions, and other stuff! And I'll bet that's where the Magic Tracker is.”

“Well, it does seem like it'll be worth a look.” Donnie shrugged.

“Alright. Let's head out to that city.” Leo ordered.

“To the City of Lore, brave quest seekers!” Mikey declared.

“Onward!” Sweetie Belle and Lancer cheered.

And with that, the Turtles and Rainbooms set off down the path. But what they didn't know, was that an armored figure was watching them.


After walking for some time, the group climbed over a hill and gazed out in awe. Straight ahead, they saw a large city surrounded by a big wall. There were towers, domed buildings, and docks with boats going in and out.

Mikey turned to the group. “My friends, welcome to the City of Lore.”

“That city is massive! How are we going to find my tracker?” Twilight gasped.

“Where would we even start looking?” Rainbow looked around.

“We could try the market square. That's where I'd look.” Sweetie Belle pointed.

“It's worth a shot.” Spike admitted.

“Alright then, let's check out there.” Leo nodded.

“Follow us, we know where it is.” Lancer offered as he, Mikey, and Sweetie Belle led the way.

They walked along the path as it led them over the long bridge and thought a big archway into the town. As they passed through the streets, Bright Eyes noticed other unicorns and Pegasus.

“Well at least I’m not the only pony avatar in this game.” She smiled.

Sweetie Belle patted her shoulder. “Yeah, unicorns are one of the most popular avatars in the game.”

Just then, a player as a trident noticed Blade Swipe passing by. “Nice avatar. Let me guess... you’re a stallion knight?”

Blade Swipe shrugged. “Something like that?”

“Cool.” The player gave him a thumbs up.

Another player as a Viking noticed Karai. “Hey, barbaric gal, wanna go hunting for treasure and fight ogres?” he clicked his tongue.

Karai rolled her eyes in annoyance. “Dork.”

As he was looking around at all the sights, Fugitoid bumped into a dragonoid avatar.

“Oh, pardon me.” He politely only to be shoved back by the dragon avatar.

“Watch where your going, noob!” Then he caught sight of Mikey, Sweetie Belle, and Lancer and smirked. “Well well, if it isn't PartyElf, Princess Miner, and Wind Walker!”

“Ugh!” Mikey and Lancer groaned.

“Oh no!” Sweetie Belle grimaced.

“Do you guys know him?” April asked the three.

“Unfortunately.” They all sighed.

Lancer pointed. “This is Dragon Warrior Supreme. A trash-talking pro player.”

“And don't you forget it! So, you three playing with noobies now?” Dragon Warrior chuckled.

Rarity gasped. “I, beg, your, pardon?!”

“Who you calling noobies?!” Rainbow growled.

“They're our friends!” Lancer stated.

Dragon Warrior only chuckled. “Yeah. They're Noobs!”

“I dare you to say that to my face!” Raph tried to charge at him, only to be held back by Leo.

“Easy, Raph! Now look, we won't be here long so we don't want any trouble!”

Lancer stood before Dragon Warrior. “Now why don't you get lost before I pick you up and drop you down the great waterfall, ...again.”

Dragon Warrior frowned at that. “Fine! I've wasted enough time here anyway.” And with that he took his leave.

Raph glared after Leo let him go. “Man! He's just as rude as the Color Strikes!”

“Don't we know it!” Mikey, Sweetie Belle, and Lancer sighed.

“Anyway, the market square is just this way.” Sweetie Belle lead the way. Soon she led them to a large market bizarre full of stands. “And here we are.”

Bright Eyes looked around in awe. “Wow! It's like the market square back in Ponyville.”

“And the one in Canterlot.” Blade admitted.

“Yep, you can get weapons, potions, spell mods, and lots of other cool stuff.” Sweetie Belle added.

“Well, the thing I'm hoping to get here is my tracker.” Twilight hoped.

“But this place is so big. How are going find it?” Fluttershy feared.

“And we don't even know if it is here?” Sunset added.

“There's only one way to find out.” Donnie shrugged.

“Right. Let's split up into teams and search this market to find out if it's here or not.” Leo told the group.

“And let's hope no one else found it.” April feared.


Leo, Twilight, Spike, Karai, Sunset, and Fugitoid where searching through the weapons when Spike spotted something and scampered over to it. “Hey, look what I found!”

“Did you find my tracker?” Twilight perked up.

“Well, no, but check out this cool sword!” Spike said as he hefted a large sword up to the sky. “I have the pow-whoa!” He fell over due to the heaviness of the sword. Twilight just couldn’t help but giggle.

Leo noticed some ninja weapons on display. “these weapons are impressive.” He admitted looking at a blue handle odachi blade.

“If we didn’t have a tracker to look for, I’d be getting a couple of these.” Karai agreed.

“I’m more surprised that there aren’t many firearms here.” Fugitoid looked around curiously.

“Well, Professor, during those times, they usually used these ancient weapons.” Sunset explained.

“So glad The Triceratons didn’t show up then.” The professor mumbled.

Raph, Casey, Applejack, Rainbow, Blade were looking at all the potions. Then Applejack noticed Raph holding one up as a small screen appeared next to it. “Hey, Raph, what kind of potion is that?”

Raph looked at the screen. “Says it's a polymorph potion.”

“What's a polymorph?” Rainbow raised a brow.

“It means to transform into something.” Blade explained.

Raph continued as he pointed at a list of animal names. “This potion has a list of animals you can-“

“Guys, check this-“ Casey then accidentally bumped into Raph and made him click one of the names.

“Casey!” Raph shouted before he vanished in a flash.

“Raph!” Rainbow cried.

“Ah shoot! Where'd he go?!” Casey looked around fearfully.

“He’s right there.” Blade pointed down to where Raph had been standing and had to hold back the urge to laugh. The three looked down and they too felt the urge to laugh. Raph had been transformed into a frog.

Raph, however, was unaware of his transformation. “How'd you guys get so tall?”

Applejack started to chuckle. “Uh, Raph. You kinda got turned into a frog.”

Then the group couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.

“What?” Raph looked himself over and screamed. “Aaaahhh-ribbit! This is worse than getting my head turned into a turkey!”

“Too bad Mona isn’t here. Shed have kissed you back to normal.” Casey joked. Raph could only growl.

Rainbow then took the potion and spoke to the stall owner. “How much for this potion?”

“Don't get any ideas-ribbit!” Raph warned.


Meanwhile, Mikey, Shini, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Bright Eyes look around the armor and attire section. Shini saw a witch hat just like hers. “place has style I’ll give them that.”

“Whoa.” Mikey held up a helmet with wings in awe.

“I don't see Twilight's tracker anywhere, do you?” Fluttershy asked the group.

Pinkie was sorting through everything like crazy. “Nope. Nope. Not it. Nope.”

“You guys need help looking for something?” asked a male voice. Everyone looked to see another elf avatar.

“We are. Sorry if we're holding up the line.” Bright Eyes apologized.

“You're fine. I'm just restocking before the next quest.” The elf looked at the new faces. “You guys new to the game?”

“We just started today. I’m Sweetie Belle. Who are you?”

“I just go by my username. Elf-Prince9.”

Fluttershy walked up to him. “Um, this is just a random question but, I don't suppose you've seen a round device with a star on top that goes around your neck, did you?”

Elf-Prince9 thought for a moment. “Hmm, nope, I've been to all the stands, nothing like that anywhere. Anyway, I better get going. I've got get ready for the quest.”

“What quest?” Bright Eyes raised a brow.

“The new Quest that just popped up. I'm gearing up for it. Anyway, see you around.” Elf-Prince9 waved as he took his leave.

Shini looked again briefly. “Well, no luck here, let's regroup with the others and see if they had any luck?”

As the girls left, Mikey and Sweetie Belle hung back and looked at each other with wide grins. They both had the same idea.


Soon the four groups arrived where they started.

“Any luck?” Leo asked the teams.

“We didn't find the Tracker with the crystals.” Donnie reported.

“Although the crystals were ever so exquisite.” Rarity admired.

“We didn't find it with the potions.” Applejack shook her head.

“But we got this potion that turned Raph into a frog!” Rainbow giggled, as Raph huffed. Fortunately, The potion had worn off and he was a turtle again.

“It wasn't in the armory.” Fluttershy sighed.

This made Twilight worried more. “This is bad! This is bad Bad BAD! I know Shining Armor always told me I always had my head in video games, but this is Ridiculous!” she kept ranting more and more.

“She’s Twilighting again!” Pinkie cried.

Leo shook her. “Twilight! Calm down!”

“I’ll handle this.” Karai walked up to Twilight and flipped her on her back and caught her glasses.

“Was that really necessary?” Bright Eyes gasped.

“It was to calm her down.” Karai dusted her hands.

Twilight held up her hand. “No! I needed that. Thank you, Karai.”

Sunset helped her up and Karai gave her back her glasses while Rarity talked to Bright Eyes. “It’s how Karai helps when we stress out. She did that to me once.”

Sunset looked at her friend. “Now Twilight, I don’t know how but we’ll find your tracker. We have to!”

“Where do we go now, Mikey? Mikey?” Leo Looked around to see they were three members short. “Sweetie Belle? Lancer?”

“Where’d they go?” April asked.

“Oh, I saw them following some other players to that big stone temple waaay over there.” Pinkie pointed to a stone abbey on the outskirts of the city.

Inside the temple, a group of avatars were standing before a stone platform. And among them was Mikey, Sweetie Belle, and Lancer.

Elf-Prince9 looked to them. “Glad to see you guys will joining on the quest.”

“Yep.” Sweetie Belle smiled.

“You know it!” Mikey grinned.

“Mikey!” Then, they heard Leo’s voice followed by Rarity’s.

“Sweetie Belle!”

The three looked back to see the others storming up to them.

“Friends of yours?” Elf-Prince9 asked.

“Yeah.” The two deadpanned.

“You know better than to run off like that!” Rarity scolded.

Raph added. “We have a tracker to look for and you guys are just running off playing games!”

“We ARE looking for the tracker!” Mikey assured.

Sweetie Belle continued to explain. “Since it wasn’t in the City of Lore, maybe it’s somewhere in the quest areas.”

Raph just scoffed. “Just sounds like an excuse to play this stupid game! This is a waste of time!”

“The noobies got a point, you know.” Everyone looked to see none other than Dragon Warrior Supreme standing off to the side. “It would save you all the humiliation of losing to me!”

Mikey gasped. “Ah, you're joining this quest too?!”

“Wherever there's treasure up for grabs, I'll always be there to snatch it! But I'd be more worried if you-know-who decides to join...”

Mikey, Sweetie Belle, and Lancer each had a look of horror.

“You don't mean...” Mikey shuddered.

“Him?!” Lancer grimaced.

“Exactly!”

“Oh no! Anyone but him!” Sweetie Belle trembled.

“Who are you talking about?” April asked.

Mikey, Lancer, and Sweetie Belle answered in fear. “The Gameinator!”

Casey however laughed. “Gameinator?”

Raph rolled his eyes. “What kind of stupid name is the Gameinator?”

“Ha! Spoken like a true noob!” Dragon Warrior scoffed.

Elf-Prince9 explained to the group. “I agree with the trash talker for once, I so wouldn't take that lightly if I were you! The Gameinator is the last guy you want to run into!”

“Who's The Gameinator?” Fluttershy asked.

“Only the best player in this whole game!” Lancer answered.

Sweetie Belle added. “He's a class 80 warrior with mastery in both magic and combat.”

Sunset Shimmer turned to the party turtle. “Mikey, dumb question: What’s the highest level in the game?”

“80.”

“Of course.” Sunset groaned.

“Oh dear.” Fluttershy shivered.

Elf-Prince9 nodded his head. “Oh yeah! If you run into the Gameinator, it's instant game over for you!”

Dragon Warrior had his warning as well. “The Gameinator shows no mercy and won't hesitate to destroy you at the drop of the hat!”

“Dudes, we so gotta bring our A-game if we're gonna stand a chance in the quest!” Mikey declared.

Leo then spoke to his brother. “Mikey, we're here to look for Twilight's Magic Tracker, not to play in some stupid quest!”

“Oh come on, Leo, what have we got to lose?” Mikey pleaded.

“It might be worth a shot.” Bright Eyes added.

“And going on this quest sounds like super duper fun!” Pinkie bounced.

As the group figured there was no other option, Raph groaned. “Alright fine! But if this turns out to be a waste of time, I’m giving you the first game over!”

Twilight whispered to Leo. “You think Mikey might be right about this?”

Leo took a deep breath. “He has been right before. I’m just hoping he right this time as well.”

Just then, three balls of light appeared, then in a flash, three women in greek-like dresses stood before the crowd.

“Who are they?” Applejack asked.

“They’re The Keepers of Fate!” Mikey answered.

“They send players on quests.” Lancer pointed out.

The first Keeper spoke. “Welcome, Quest Seekers. The quest, should you except it, is a hunt for these mystical keys.” Then, three keys appeared floating above each of the Keepers' hands. “The keys will unlock the treasure in this chest.”

Then a large chest appeared and opened up for everyone to see.

Raph just rolled his eyes. “Who cares?”

Donnie, however, stared in disbelief. “We care! Look what's in the chest!” he pointed to the chest. There, amongst all the gold, special weapons, armor, and power ups, was Twilight's Magic Tracker!

“My Tracker!” Twilight gasped. She rushed toward the chest, but an invisible force kept her from reaching it.

“If you desire the prize, then you must win the quest.” The first Keeper told her.

“But there’s something I lost over there!” Twilight pleaded.

“No exceptions!” the second Keeper raised her voice.

The last Keeper then announced. “Your first clue to the first key's whereabouts will be found in The Realm Of Ice.”

“Good luck, Quest Seekers!” The first Seeker wished.

“And be warned! Many dangers and perils await on your journey!” the second Keeper warned.

“With that being said, your quest for the keys starts, now!” the last Keeper finished.

And with that, the Keepers and the chest vanished. Twilight dropped to her knees. “NOOOOO!”

Rainbow whispered to the others. “Anyone else thinking she's over doing it a bit?”

“Alright! Let’s go!” Sweetie Belle started to head out only to be pulled back by Rarity.

“Now hold on, Sweetie Belle! There’s gotta be another way to get the tracker back!”

“Preferable one without all the dangers!” Fluttershy shivered.

“Hey Donnie, can’t ya just hack this game so we can grab the tracker?” Raph asked his brother.

“I could if I was on a computer, not IN a video game!” Donnie pointed out.

“Not a good idea to hack. It could cause a game crash.” Elf-Prince9 warned.

Leo sighed. “Then there’s no choice! We have to do this quest to get the tracker.”

“Good luck, noobs! Your going to need it!” Dragon Warrior laughed And he left with the other players.

“Neh!” Shini stuck her tongue out at him.

Elf-Prince9 turned to the group. “Wanna Team up? It'll be easier and I'll share the treasure. And best of all, we can put that trash talker in his place.”

“I'm down with that.” Mikey smiled.

“Same.” Sweetie Belle and Lancer agreed.

“He does know this world as well as these three.” Blade pointed out.

Leo nodded in agreement. “Very Well. You can help.”

“To the Realm of Ice!” Mikey declared.

“Onward to adventure!” Sweetie Belle joined in.

“This is going to be a long day.” Raph sighed


“So where do we go?” Casey asked as they headed down the path.

Leo checked the map before locating the realm of ice. “Alright, team, let's move!”

“Okay! Now before we head-“ Before Elf-Prince9 could finish, everyone rushed off.

“Guys, wait!” Mikey called.

“We know a-“ Sweetie Belle added, But everyone had already gone.

“...Short cut.” Lancer sighed.

“This their first time role playing or something?” Elf-Prince9 asked.

“For Bright Eyes and Blade Swipe. And everyone else, first time in the whole game.” Mikey explained.

“Hopefully we can pull this off.” Elf-Prince9 mumbled.


Soon, the others were running down a path. After a while, Fluttershy spoke up.

“Um, are we going the right way?”

Everyone stopped in their tracks after she said that.

“She’s right.” Raph deadpanned.

“If we want to accomplish this quest, we gotta do it right.” Twilight pointed out.

“Alright, Mikey, where do we go? Mikey?” Leo looked around for his brother.

Bright Eyes noticed too. “Wait, where is Mikey? And Lancer?!”

“And Sweetie Belle?!” Rarity gasped.

“That Elf-Prince9 guy isn’t here either.” Sunset added.

“That's because we're right here.” Said a familiar voice.

Everyone looked to see Mikey, Sweetie Belle, Lancer, and Elf-Prince9 standing in front of them.

“What kept you guys?” Sweetie Belle grinned.

“How did you three get here before us?” Casey raised a brow.

Elf-Prince9 explained. “Avatars with magic can be teleported through the travel portals.” He motioned to stone archway a few feet away from the path as Lancer added.

“You and Donnie are wizards too, Twilight, so you can activate them as well. You too, Bright Eyes.”

“And you were gonna tell us when?” Asked an annoyed Karai.

“We were about to, but you just went ahead before we could say it.” Mikey pointed out.

Bright Eyes rubbed the back of her neck, sheepishly. “Uh... sorry about that.”

Lancer smiled. “Fortunately, you guys were going in the right direction. The realm of the Ice is just through this narrow pass.” He pointed toward a small path that went through a narrow canyon in a mountain.

“Just try not to run off without us again.” Elf-Prince9 warned.

Leo nodded, knowing he was right. “Yeah. But we have to find that key, before some other player gets it.”

Twilight Sparkle chimed in. “I've got to get my tracker back!”

Elf-Prince9 blinked when he heard Twilight said, like he knew something but shook it off. “Alright Everyone. Let’s go.”

So, they went through the narrow pass and found themselves in a rocky land of snow and ice.

“Welcome to the Realm of the Ice!”

“So where are gonna find that clue?” Applejack asked.

Elf-Prince9 took out a piece of paper. “It says here, the clue to the first key is somewhere in the Ice Ogre territory.”

“What's an ice ogre?” Pinkie asked.

“They’re native to the Realm of Ice and don't take kindly to intruders.” Lancer told the group.

“They’re not the worst monsters, but they aren't exactly easy to beat.” Elf-Prince9 pointed out

“Anything else we should know?” Karai asked.

“One of their main weapons are ice arrows! If they hit you, you'll be frozen solid in a second!” Sweetie Belle explained.

Leo raised a brow. “Can we at least sneak past them?”

“Yeah, but it’ll be tough.” Elf-Prince9 answered.

“It might be our best option. Everyone, sneak quietly and find the clue when we get there.” Leo told the group.


Soon, the Ninjas made their way through the land, following a path, past cliffs, and overhangs. When they rounded a bend, they came to a section of the path that split in three directions. The third path was thin path with a sign next to it that read "Warning: Ice Ogre Territory! Enter at your own risk".

“Looks like we're on the right track.” Donnie said nervously.

“Let's go!” Twilight led the way.

They hurried along the path, over rocky hills, and fields, until they stopped by a barren tree a peeked out. Ahead of them stood a campsite full of ogres. They were each different sizes, but all were bigger than the ninjas. They had pale blue skin and sharp teeth that stuck out of their lips.

Rarity looked grossed out. “Ugh! These darlings could surely use some good hygiene! And a better sense of wardrobe.”

Rainbow turned to Elf-Prince9. “So where do you think the clue is?”

“My guess would be in the box surrounded by all the scariest ogres with the giant swords and spiked bludgeons.” He pointed to the lone wooden chests that was surrounded by the most heavily armed ogres in the campsite. “The problem is getting through those behemoths.”

“Then we go in full ninja mode. Get to those boxes and find the clue!” Leo declared.

“Dudes, wait!” Mikey tried to warn the group, but they had already snuck in. Unfortunately, the moment they set foot in the camp, all the ogres turned and roared before charging at the Ninjas!

“They see us!” Sweetie Belle cried.

“Take 'em down!” Leo cried.

Everyone drew their weapons and fought the ogres. Blade tried to fire a lightning bolt but couldn’t and the ogre slammed him causing him to implode into data.

“Blade!” cried Karai.

“I will avenge you!” Donnie declared. But suddenly, he got frozen by an ogre’s arrow. “srrch a wist rf hrorc ine (Such a waste of a heroic line).” He groaned.

“Donnie!” April gasped.

As they continued to fight, Casey was next to be slammed. Followed by Applejack and Rainbow.

“They got Rainbow Dash!” shrieked Fluttershy.

Just then, Mikey called to the group. “Dudes, we got the clue!” But right at that moment, he was smashed by an ogre's club.

“Mikey!” In a rage, Leo threw his sword at the ogre, destroying it.

Luckily, the remaining players defeated the group of ogres. But felt bad they lost their friends in the progress.

Pinkie bawled. “All our friends! Gon-“ She paused when Blade, Casey, Applejack, Rainbow, and Mikey suddenly reappeared. “You're alive!” she quickly cheered.

Elf-Prince9 then noticed more ogres were heading their way. “Now let's get out of here while we're all still alive!”

Everyone ran out as fast as they could, Pinkie and April pushing the frozen Donnie, with the ogres chasing after them. But Twilight and Bright Eyes conjured up a force field and the ogres face planted right onto it. Then the two ran off to catch up the others. It was Not until they were out of the Ice ogre territory did they stop.

Leo turned to the ones that had been briefly destroyed. “Are you guys okay?”

Applejack dusted herself off. “I think so, but it's the strangest thing. I didn't have my super strength?”

“Or my super speed?” Rainbow dumbfounded.

“And I couldn't shoot lightning from my sword?” Blade was equally confused.

Elf-Prince9 looked confused. “What are you guys talking about?”

Rainbow realized their slip up and waved it off. “Oh, uh, nothing! Nothing important!”

Mikey quickly changed the subject. “Guys, that's not the only problem. We just lost one of our lives!”

“Lives? The avatars in this game have lives?” Sunset asked.

“Only when you’re in a quest.” Sweetie Belle said. She then tapped her chest and a small rectangular screen appeared above her head. She pointed to a partly empty line and a set of five hearts. “That's your heath level and those hearts are your lives.”

Mikey and the other four did the same as her and the screens appeared above their heads, but each had one heart missing. Everyone else did the same as Sunset spoke up.

“I get it, each time we take battle damage our heath bar lowers. It lowers all the way; we lose a life. But what happens if we lose all our lives?”

“You fail the quest and get sent back to Fate's Temple.” Elf-Prince9 stated.

Hearing that made Sunset frown. “Wonderful.”

Pinkie suddenly gasped. “What if, we lose our lives in this game, we lose our lives for real?!”

Everyone went wide eyed at the thought. Spike shuddered. “I don't think I wanna find out.”

“Me neither!” Bright Eyes feared.

“I'm not taking any chances!” Pinkie stated as she took out a knight helmet and put it on.

“Aside from that, does anyone have any ideas as to why we can't use our you know what?” Rarity asked, without out mentioning their powers around Elf-Prince9.

Just then, Donnie started making grunting sounds from the ice. “I ight ave a eory.”

“Whatcha say, D?” Casey scratched his head.

“I think he's saying something about blueberries?” Mikey guessed.

“Mrrr!” Donnie just growled.

“Hang on, Donnie.” Sweetie Belle struck the Ice with her pick-axe and freed Donnie.

Donnie gasped for air. “Thanks, Sweetie Belle. As I was trying to say, I might have a theory?” He turned to Elf-Prince9 as a precaution. “Could you give us all a moment?” Elf-Prince9 nodded and waited a couple steps back. Soon they all huddled up as he explained. “I think, when the Equestrian Magic sucked us into the game and turned us into avatars, may have also altered our abilities as well. Theoretically speaking of course.”

“That makes logical sense.” Twilight figured.

Karai concentrated then stopped after nothing happened. “I can’t even use my mutant form here.”

“So we better be careful until we complete the quest, get the tracker, and go home.” Leo pieced everything together.

“Agreed.” Blade nodded.

After everyone else unanimously agreed, the group break their huddle and look at Elf-Prince9.

“So where do we go now?” April asked.

Elf-Prince9 nodded as took out the paper and read it. “The clue says, the first key is at Castle Cretin, where Queen Elebeth is awaiting our arrival.”

“Who's Queen Elebeth?” Bright Eyes asked.

“The sorceress queen, and she's very powerful.” Lancer explained.

“So we're gonna have to be-“

“No time! Let's go!” Rainbow interrupted the gamer.

Sighing, Elf-Prince9 led them to the portal archway and soon they were on the outskirts of a dark castle. “Here we are, Castle Cretin.”

Spike shivered at the sight. “It looks... welcoming.”

“So where's Queen Elebeth supposed to be?” Rainbow questioned.

“Inside the castle. But we're going to have to get past her guards.” Sweetie Belle then pointed to a large number of armored guards.

“Oh-We-oh. Yo!” They chanted.

Raph deadpanned. “You gotta be kidding me.”

“Raph come on.” Leo gestured his brother to follow.

“Well, since Queen Elebeth knows we're coming, it would make since she'd have that many guards on patrol.” Donnie figured as they trekked behind the big rocks in the mountains.

“We should be fine. The guards are easy to beat.” Elf-Prince9 assured.

“But they still have us outnumbered.” April pointed out.

“Also, none of us have a clue about our avatars abilities?” Sunset added.

“Oh, that's an easy fix. Just do this.” Mikey tapped his shoulder and another small screen appeared. “This tells us our abilities.”

Raph was irked. “And you're telling us this now?!”

“I forgot?” Mikey shrugged before Raph conked him in the head.

Elf-Prince9 then stated. “In his defense, you guys keep rushing in these predicaments and not giving us enough time to explain these things.” He then frowned at Rainbow who grinned sheepishly. Unable to come up with a comeback, Raph sighed knowing he’s right.

“Got us there.” Applejack confessed.

“So, before we do anything, let's find out what we can do.” Karai suggested.

“Allow us to read them out.” Mikey insisted. He then spoke to Leo, Raph, Casey, and Karai. “You guys already know your abilities. As for the rest of you...” He spoke to Sunset as she brought out her screen. “Sunset, you’re a mystical gypsy. You've got enchanted cards that can be used against enemies, and you can also use them to summon monsters, frost giants, and storm gods to help you.”

Sunset looked at one of her cards. “Well, that's good to know.”

Sweetie Belle then turned to April and Rainbow. “April, you're a master thief and a master of stealth. You can steal things out from under people's noses. And Rainbow Dash, you’re a shadow warrior. You’re also a master of stealth.”

“Wow! Now that's cool!” April grinned.

“More like awesome!” awed Rainbow.

Lancer explained to Donnie, Twilight, and Bright Eyes. “You guys can shoot magic beams from your staffs and horn and cast spells.”

“What about me? What can I do?” Spike jumped up.

“You’re Twilight's familiar. An animal companion. You can also transform into a werewolf.”

“Cool!” Spike cheered.

“Applejack, you've got magic arrows that explode or zap with lightning when they hit adversaries.” Sweetie Belle said.

“Glad I'm good at archery.” The farm girl smiled.

Elf-Prince9 reached into his pouch and pulled something out before talking to Blade Swipe. “Blade, you have the power to summon lightning at your foes. Here. This is a lightning orb. It'll enhance your lightning abilities. You'll need it more than I do.”

Blade accepted the orb. “Thank you, my friend. I'll see to it that I use it wisely.”

“You bet. And Fugitoid, your ability depends on your dice rolls. mostly summons and spells.”

Fugitoid looked at his dice. “Good thing I play backgammon with Ms. Cheerlie.”

Mikey then turned to Rarity. “And Rarity, you’re a mystical gem collector. Your gems can encase enemies and make rock walls.”

“Lovely!” The fashionista awed.

Raph turned to Leo. “So what's the plan, fearless leader?”

“Okay. Here’s the plan: Sunset, Raph, Applejack, Karai, Rainbow Dash, and I will get most of the guard’s attention and draw them away. Then Donnie and Twilight can use their magic to scatter the others, so we won't have to fight them all at once. After that, we can face the queen and get the key.”

“Is that even doable?” Sweetie Belle raised a brow.

“Donnie, is it?” Raph asked.

As they spoke, Casey looked at the guards, feeling the urge to attack. After some time to think, Donnie then spoke.

“Well, I did a quick number crunch and calculated a 32.3%, repeating of course, chances of victory.”

“Okay, now we just need to-“ Leo was then interrupted by Casey.

“Let's do this!” Then he charged at the guards, shouting, “Goongala!”

“What the-? He just ran in!” Bright Eyes gasped.

“Darn it, Jones!” Donnie griped.

Wasting no time, Elf-Prince9 waved to everyone to go. “Let's go let's go!”

“Booyakasha!” Mikey cried.

“Stick to the plan!” Leo ordered as they joined the battle.

As they fought the guards, Blade pulled out an orb and calls forth lightning and shocks guards. Shini held out her cane and the guards stop as if they’re dazed.

“You know these abilities seem similar to our own.” She admitted.

“With a few exceptions.” Sunset threw a fortune card that swallows a couple guards.

Fugitoid took out a couple dice and rolled, getting a Snake Eyes. The dice turned into a giant snake that constricted a couple more guards.

“That was fortunate.” He smiled.

“Yeehaw!” Applejack cheered as she shot arrows at the guard, zapping them or making them explode.

Sweetie Belle held up her pick-axe as it glowed pink, then she whacked away some guards. “Whoa! Now I feel like part of the team!”

Rarity heard what her sister said and became curious, but before she could question that, some guards charged at her. Smirking, she pulled out three gems and threw them. The gems them encased the guards. “Diamonds really are a girl's best friend!”

Bright Eyes galloped through and blasted at every guard she passed before she stopped in front of a wall of guards. She turned around only to find another large number of guards. She was surrounded. But as the guards closed in, Lancer swooped down and grabbed her.

“I'm making a habit out of saving you, aren't I?”

Bright Eyes just rolled her eyes before she spotted some of the guards about to get the drop on Pinkie. “Pinkie needs help!”

Pinkie was back-flipping and cartwheeling around the guards until she landed in front of their spears. “Uh oh!” Before they could attack, they were blasted away by Bright Eyes magic as she and Lancer flew by. “Thanks, Bright Eyes and Lancer!”

“You’re welcome.” Both Lancer and Bright Eyes answered.

Fluttershy flew around before she sang out and vines sprung up and wrapped around the guards. “Sorry?”

Meanwhile, Twilight blasted a couple guards with her scepter while Spike hides behind her leg.

“Spike, can’t you transform into a werewolf yet?” she asked.

Spike was trying before grunting. “I've been trying! I can't seem to do it now.”

Leo was nearby, hitting a couple guards with his sword. “It's okay. It looks like we're doing better this time.”

Soon all the guards were all beaten. Spike called to the group. “Guys, we're clear!”

Everyone hurried toward the castle entrance, but more guards were right behind them. Rarity quickly pulled out some crystals and threw them into the ground, then a huge crystal wall sprouted up, blocking the guards from following them.

“Way to go, Rarity!” April smiled.

“Who says gems aren't useful in battle?” the fashionista chuckled.

The ninjas went through the entrance and found themselves in a large throne room. But before they knew it, they were all trapped inside a small magic dome.

“What the?” Karai gasped.

“What in tarnation?” Applejack added.

“We're trapped!” Pinkie cried.

“And it would appear we're not the only ones.” Fugitoid motioned to their left and they saw all the other players from the start of the quest were trapped inside magic domes too.

“And I think I know who did this.” Sweetie Belle said, pointing in front of them.

There on a throne, dressed in a dark dress and wearing a sharp pointed headband crown, sat a pale skinned woman with jet black hair and maroon eyes. And around her neck, hung the first key.

It was Queen Elebeth, who spoke. “Welcome, quest seekers. If you surmised by the number of my guards, I was indeed expecting you all. I know you all seek this key to the treasure, but of course, I can't simply just give it to the first quest seeker who enters my chambers. Fortunately, I have a way to change that.” She snapped her fingers, and, in a flash, everyone found themselves standing at the entrance to a series of traps and obstacles suspended over a lake of lava. “Prove yourselves worthy by making your way across my labyrinth of doom. Oh, and one last thing... no magic and no flying!” She sent bolts of magic at the players and ninjas and Donnie and Twilight's staffs and Fluttershy and Lancer's wings vanished. “Good luck, quest seekers. You'll need it. Begin!” she finished with a chuckle.

“Well, that's unfortunate.” Donnie deadpanned.

“What do we do now?” Fluttershy trembled.

“Well, if we can't use magic and stuff, we'll just do it the old-fashioned way. Ninja style.” Raph punched his fists.

“Let's go.” Leo said as they headed into the maze. After going a little ways, the group felt like they weren’t making progress.

“This labyrinth goes on and on.” Karai grumbled.

“Hey guys! I think I found a shortcut!” Mikey turned a corner then they hear a thump and Mikey came out rubbing his nose. “No. False alarm.”

“C'mon! We need to get that key.” Sunset declared. Suddenly, big spikes sprung up from the ground and jabbed Sunset, making her vanish.

“Sunset!” Everyone cried.

“I'm okay!” They looked up and saw she was in a cage with some other players, waving them to keep going. “Go!”

“Let’s keep moving!” Donnie hurried before spikes popped up, causing him to disperse.

“Donnie!” April cried.

They were able to hurry further before making to a fork.

“Let’s go this way!” Shini pointed and hurried to the left when a trapdoor opened up and she fell in.

“Shini!” Karai cried.

“No!” Mikey gasped.

Up at the cage, Shini landed by Sunset. “Well, that was embarrassing.”

Another trap door opened under Fluttershy, causing her to fall in.

“Fluttershy!” Rainbow gasped.

“Keep going!” Leo ordered and they sprinted forward.

In the next part, giant wrecking balls swung back and forth. One was about to hit Bright Eyes as Lancer noticed. “Bright Eyes, look out!” he pushed her out of the way only to get hit himself.

“Lancer!” she gasped.

Another ball was about to hit Fugitoid, who could only shrink his eyes. “Oh” was all he could say right before he got hit.

“We lost Fugitoid!” Casey reported.

“He’ll be fine! Let’s go!” Leo called as they hurried on.

They pressed on, until they came to a narrow path that crossed over a lava pit. They also saw multiple logs swinging back and forth across the path. Leo turned to the remainder of the group.

“Okay, guys, let's take it slow...“ at that moment, they felt a rumble and looked back to see the path pulling away, with them still on it!

“Seriously?” Raph griped.

“Okay, run!” Leo cried.

They ran across the path while trying to avoid the logs. But, one log managed to knock Raph and Blade off the path.

“Raph!” Leo cried.

“Blade!” Bright Eyes gasped.

“Don't stop!” Blade ordered as he fell.

“I hate this game!” Raph shouted as they landed in the lava.

Twilight pushed Leo along. “Go go gooooo!” She cried before she too was knocked off the path and into the lava.

“Twilight!” Spike cried before he was knocked into the lava. “Aaahh!”

“Spike!” Rarity shrieked when suddenly, the path slid out from under her and she fell screaming into the lava.

The remaining group hurried along, dodging the logs, and made it to the other side.

“That was close!” Rainbow breathed.

Applejack reminded her. “We ain't outta the woods yet.”

“Come on.” Leo led the group to the next set of the stage.

As they hurried across, Casey looks up and notices something. “Is it me or is the roof a little….” Suddenly, a giant stone slammed on him.

“Casey!” April cried.

Applejack looked up and gasped. “The roof’s collapsing!”

“Run!” Leo shouted.

They hurried to avoid getting squashed when Applejack got squashed herself.

“Applejack! Go go go!” Sweetie Belle pushed the others to keep going before she got squashed too.

“There goes Sweetie Belle!” Mikey reported.

“We’re almost there!” Rainbow ran past giant stones and slid thinking she’s safe. “I made it! I-“ suddenly, a stone fell on her, squashing her.

“Dashie!” Pinkie screamed

In the cage, Rainbow landed near the others. “Oh come on!” she griped.

Leo, Mikey, April, Pinkie, and Elf-Prince9 made it to the center of the labyrinth and floating above another pit of lava was the key.

“There's the key!” Pinkie pointed.

“But how are we going to get to it?” Leo wondered.

At that moment, stone platforms rose up from the ground and floated around in circles. Some floated higher than the others.

“Well, that answers your question.” Elf-Prince9 shrugged.

“Let's get that key before something else happens.” April encouraged.

So, one by one, the five began hopping onto each of the stones, climbing up to the key. But before Pinkie could jump onto a stone, she suddenly felt her Pinkie Sense.

“My knees are pinchy! That can only mean-“ Suddenly, she was cut off as an arrow hit her and she vanished.

Mikey took notice. “Hey, where'd Pinkie-“ Then, Something came up behind him stabbed him with a dagger and he vanished.

“Mikey?” April looked around when a small crystal landed at her feet. She looked down at it, only for it to explode, making her fall off into the lava.

“April!” Elf-Prince9 cried. Then he turned around and gasped. “You!” Right before he was stabbed too and vanished.

Leo had just reached the key and was about to grab it, it was snatched by a scaly hand. Leo was shocked to see...

“Dragon Warrior?!”

“Noob!” he smirked and knocked him right off the stone.

“Nooo!” Leo fell into the lava, then reappeared in the cage with the others.

“We forgot to warn you guys about Dragon Warrior Supreme.” Mikey deadpanned.

“He plays dirty.” Sweetie Belle grumbled.

“Yep.” Lancer huffed.

Then in another flash, they were all standing in Queen Elebeth's throne room again.

The queen spoke. “Congratulations, quest seeker. You have proven yourself worthy. As for the rest of you, be gone!” She sent a blast of magic that teleported everyone outside the castle.

Outside the castle, Leo pounded the ground in frustration. He breathed heavily while Twilight placed her hand on his shoulder.

“I’m gonna get that jerk!” Raph growled.

“Get in line.” Elf-Prince9 glared.

Bright Eyes sighed. “I can’t believe we failed.”

“He makes The Storm king look nice.” Blade breathed.

“Ha!” The group saw Dragon Warrior strolling out, twirling the key. “You better believe you failed, noob!”

“You only got the key because you played dirty!” Sweetie Belle argued.

“All's fair in this quest, kid. Now I've got the key and you losers got pwned!”

“There's still two more keys.” April glared.

Dragon Warrior smirked. “If you guys barely held your own, getting this key, then you won't stand a chance getting the second and third! If I were you, I'd save myself the humiliation and just give up!

Leo stormed up to him. “We NEVER give up! Cause we've been able to turn our failures into victories. Just as we'll turn this failure into a victory by getting those other keys!”

“I'll believe that when I see it, noob!” Dragon Warrior then pushed past Leo and walked off while everyone stared daggers at him.

“I don't like that jerk!” Casey grumbled.

“You and about a million other players.” The Viking player from before agreed as all the players headed back.
