Gargoyle attack! Gundam Force and Genki Energy Squad to the rescue!

As the Mane 7 were walking out of the Everfree Forest with Shute and his friends along with them, they got to know them better. However, Twilight still couldn't help but wonder Shute meant earlier.

"So, you mean to tell me that you guys are from a different dimension?" She asked Shute curiously.

"Well not exactly." Shute replied. "Me and Captain are from Neotopia. Zero is from a dimension called Lacroa. Bakunatsumaru and Genkimaru are from a dimensional place known as Ark. And Zapper Zaku and the others use to live in a dimension called the Dark Axis, which was actually a corrupted, alternate Earth. But now they live in Ark."

"Huh, well I guess that makes sense judging by each of your choice of fashion." Rarity said.

"Thanks, I think." Zapper Zaku said with some confusion.

"By the way Twilight." Zero spoke. "You and Rarity are unicorns, while Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash are pegasi. But Alex has a horn and a pair of wings. I've never heard of something like that."

"Oh, well Alex is an alicorn." Rainbow Dash.

"An alicorn? What's that?" Genkimaru asked.

"It's like a mix between a unicorn and a pegasus." Applejack explained. "But Alex ain't the only one. The princess is an alicorn too."

"Wait. Did you say princess?" Zero asked.

"Yes." Twilight answered. "You see, Equestria is ruled by Princess Celestia, who brings forth the sun. But there's also another princess named Luna. She is Celestia's younger sister, and the bringer of the moon. And then there's a third princess, who's Celestia's niece and my childhood foalsitter, Princess Cadence. She's married to my big brother, Shining Armor, who's captain of Celestia's royal guard. Candace also embodies love, and right now, rules over the Crystal Empire."

"So Equestria is governed by three princesses. One who brings day, one who brings night, and one who brings love. Quite an aspiring combination." Bakunatsumaru said, impressed.

"Thanks. I also happen to be Princess Celestia's student." Twilight said with a smile on her face.

"And Princess Candace is Alex's childhood school teacher." Fluttershy said.

"Whoa! Really?" Shute asked, looking at both Twilight and Alex. "Well, what are both Celestia and Cadence like?"

"Oh, well they're nice and understandable." Twilight responded. "Princess Celestia always looked out for me aswell as everyother pony. And Cadence was the most fun foalsitter I ever had. For Alex, it was a bit different."

"Different? How?" Zero questioned.

"Well." Alex started. "Princess Celestia was kind to give me house of my own when I was young. And Miss Cadence was the only pony who didn't think bad of me." His face started to show some sadness before he continued. "That was back in my old home of Fillydelphia, where I was hated by every pony else. Even my old family hated me, and I was beaten by them at home and by bullies at school."

"Wow, that's horrible." Said all five Zako soldiers, after hearing the story.

"Yeah, even to former bad guys like us." Grappler Gouf said. Both Zapper Zaku and Destroyer Dom nodded their heads in agreement.

But that's in past." Alex said, now smiling. "Because Fluttershy, Twilight,and the others, are my new family now. And Miss Cadence is still as nice as back then. And Princess Luna is kind too. As long as I know all this, nothing can take away this smile."

"That's the spirit!" Genkimaru said. "The kind of ponies who mistreat you, are no friends or family at all!"

"You know, Zero's world is governed by a princess aswell." Captain mentioned.

"Really?!" Twilight, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash exclaimed in unison.

"Yeah, Princess Rele." Shute said. "We'll be happy to introduce you all to her, along with the others back on the Argama."

"Well, that's very generous of you-" Rarity said, but was cut off by Pinkie Pie.

"Wait a minute! You mean there's more of you robots back on your ship?" She asked.

"Well, most of the crew are." Zero said.

"Is this Princess Rele a pony too?" Asked Fluttershy curiously.

"No." Bakunatsumaru answered. "She's a human. So was Shute." He then placed his hands on his mouth when he realized what he said. But Shute already heard what he said, and frowned in embarrassment.

"A human? I read all about them in one of my books. But I've never seen one before. "Twilight said. "But what do you mean "so was Shute"?"

"Well you see, I'm not really a pony." Shute explained. "I'm actually a human too. But I somehow was turned into a pony when we traveled through the portal. Plus, I don't know how I can be human agian."

"Maybe Princess Celestia can help you." Alex said.

"Yeah. When we get back to town, I'll have Spike send a letter to her explaining the situation. I'm sure she'll be happy to turn you back."

"That would be nice. Thank you." Shute said. "By the way. Who's Spike?"

"He's Twilight's personal assistant." Applejack responded.

"And a dragon." Rainbow Dash added.

"A dragon? As in a big, scary, fire-breathing dragon, zako?" One Zako said terrified.

"Oh no. Spike's a baby dragon." Fluttershy said, assuring the frightened Zako.

"But there are many adult dragons in Equestria." Rarity spoke.

"Just as there are many earth ponies, unicorns, and pegasi." Added Pinkie Pie.

Soon, the whole group was out of the Everfree Forest. And ahead of them was the town.

"There it is." Applejack announced. "Our home town, Ponyville."

Shute, the Gundam Force, and the Genki Energy Squad gazed at it with awe. Shute was amazed the most, because the town was exactly like his dream described.

After looking at it for awhile, the Mane 7 lead them into the town. But when they entered, the pony residents there were in shock at the pony and group of metal creatures that were with Twilight and her friends. Shute saw that some of them showed nervousness and a small amount fear on their faces, while others showed curiosity. And others backed away as if they were afraid Captain and the others would attack them.

"Duh odd welcoming." Destroyer Dom said after noticing the ponies behavior towards them.

"Well, we are strangers to their world, so you can't blame them for acting like this." Zero said.

Of course, Twilight and the other ponies managed to convince the residents that Shute's friends were friendly. And that she would explain to them in another meeting. Once that was taken care of, the group continued to head towards Twilight's house, which after seeing it was a tree, Shute and others were beginning to question her living habit. Outside waiting for them was Spike. When he noticed the Gundam Force and Genki Energy Squad, he became a bit frightened.

"Don't worry Spike, these guys are not dangerous." Twilight assured, before turning to Shute and his friends. "Everyone, this is Spike."

Shute and the other introduced themselves to the baby dragon. After which, Twilight began to speak to Spike.

"Anyway, Spike." Twilight started. "I need to write a letter to the princess, to let her know of my findings. Aswell as to request her help with something."

"Okay Twilight!" Spike replied before heading back in to start the letter.

"This will take awhile." Twilight said to Shute. "Why don't my friends give you guys a tour of the rest of Ponyville? I'll meet up with you when I'm done here."

"Sure!" Shute replied. With that, Twilight entered her house. While the group began to explore, with Alex and the others being their tour guides. After a few hours of seeing shops, parks, and other places, they all decided to sit down and wait for Twilight.

"I must say, your town is quite peaceful." Captian commented.

"Well, it's not always peaceful." Rarity said.

"Yeah." Added Rainbow Dash. "Sometimes, something happens unexpectedly."

As soon as she said that, the sky began to burst with the sight and sound of fireworks.

"Like that!" Pinkie Pie said, amazed by the display.

Just then, a big stage magically appeared infront of the Ponyville residents, and the newcomers. A cloud of light-purple smoke covered the stage center.

"Hello citizens of Ponyville!" A voice announced proudly.

"Oh no, don' tell me." Applejack said in distraught, after recognizing the voice.

"I'm afraid so." Alex answered her, with a big sigh.

The smoke cleared, and standing on stage was an azure unicorn. She had a pale blue mane and tail. Her eyes were a grayish violet. Her flank showed a light blue curve and a magician's wand. She wore a purple wizard's hat and cape, both of which were adorned with stars and spots. As Shute looked at her, he couldn't help but notice how cute she was.

"It is I, the Nice and Friendlier Trixie!" She continued in her proud tone.

It was then, Twilight arrived and approached her friends. "Hey guys." She said. "I finished the letter and Spike has sent it to Princess Celestia. I told him to come find me when he receives her response." She then saw Trixie and was surprised. "Is that Trixie? What's she doing here?"

"That's what I'm going to find out!" Rainbow Dash said, flying to the stage. "Alright Trixie! What're you up to now?" She continued, glaring straight into Trixie's eyes. "The last time you came to Ponyville, you not only kicked Twilight and Alex out, but also made the town do slave labor while you acted like a tyrant!"

The residents all agreed angrily with her.

"She really did all that?" Zapper Zaku whispered to Twilight.

"Yeah." She responded. "It's a long story."

"Well I admit, I did those things." Trixie tried to be reasonable. "But only because I was corrupted by the Alicorn Amulet!" After that day, I thought about my actions, and I decided to turnover a new leaf. I'm now nicer, kinder, and friendlier."

"Yeah right!" Rainbow said doubtfully. "You just want to earn our trust so you can cause trouble again!"

"Stop it Rainbow! Leave her alone!" Shute spoke outloud. All the ponies turned and looked at him, surprised that somepony was defending the pony who caused them misery during her last visit. Twilight and her friends were dumbstruck, while Captain and the others looked at Shute, knowing well what he was doing. "So she did that stuff when she last came here! But those were mistakes she made in the past, and she's learned from them. I think you all should give her a chance!" He continued.

"See? He knows that I'm speaking the truth!" Said Trixie. "Surely that's enough for everypony to accept!"

"Applejack, you think she's really telling the truth?" Rarity asked, looking at her friend.

"Unfortunately." Applejack replied. "She's being truthful."

"Yeah." Alex added. "It seems that way."

"I guess we all can trust her." Twilight said. Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and the residents of Ponyville agreed.

"Hmph!" Rainbow still disapproved. "I'll trust her when gargoyles attack the town."

Suddenly a screeching roar was heard above Ponyville. Everyone looked up and saw, coming through the clouds, a massive flock of creatures in the sky.

The creatures were all stone gray colored with sharp bird-like beaks, two 3 taloned legs, a long devil-tail, and orange-red eyes. Most of them had two arms with 4 claws, two bat-like wings, and two horns on top of their heads. The one infront however(which was no doubt the leader), had four arms, each with 4 claws, four wings, and three horns on top of it's head.

The lead gargolye let out a growling screech, and dove towards Ponyville, the rest following close behind. Ever pony resident ran screaming in different directions, as the gargoyles began to terrorize the town.

"I didn't mean that literally!" Rainbow Dash said, dodging a gargolye that flew at her.

"Everypony, get to safety!" Twilight said, as she used her magic to keep gargoyles away from them. She then turned to her friends. "Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Alex!" She continued. "You guys help me deal with the gargoyles! Rarity and Fluttershy, you two help keep everypony safe!" The others agreed, and the Mane 7 went to it. As the gargoyles continued wrecking Ponyville, Shute couldn't stand the sight.

"We have to help them Captain!" He exclaimed to the Gundams and others.

"Don't worry Shute!" Captain spoke, as he transformed to his standard form, and took out his Beam Rifle and Shield. "We will help them out! Right everyone?"

Zero called forth his Vatras, and unsheath his Buster Sword. The others took out their weapons aswell. "Right!" They shouted. And with that, the Gundam Force and Genki Energy Squad went straight to the scene.

Meanwhile, two ponies were trapped by three gargoyles. The one in the middle advanced toward them and was about lash out at them. Suddenly a beam of energy hit it in the back, causing it to blowup into pieces. The other two looked back, so did the ponies. There standing behind them, was Captain Gundam, with his Beam Rifle aimed at them, barrel smoking, and his aiming visor on his eye.

"I have been given authorization by the SDG for the use of weaponry to protect innocent beings." Captain announced. "Cease your attack, or I will use lethal force!"

The gargoyles just stared at him. Then they roared and flew at him.

Captain readied himself, his hidden treads started. He then charged at the gargoyles. The first one lashed out his claw to strike the Gundam. Captain dodged to the gargoyle's left side. Then he shot his Beam Rifle at it, disintegrating it aswell. The second gargolye tried to strike Captain with it's tail. But using his jetpack, he jumped high over the beast and fired his Head Vulcans, completely tearing it to shards. As soon as Captain obliterated the creatures, he turned to the two ponies he saved and gave them an assuring nod. "Don't fret citizens." He said. "You'll be safe."

Suddenly, two more gargoyles were about attack the SDG robot from behind, only to be shredded to pieces by a barrage of bullets from the right of them. Captain turned his head to the right and saw Zapper Zaku, his machine guns smoking at the barrels.

"I got your back Gundam!" Zapper said. Captain smiled as the two of them continued to face off the gargoyles.

At the other side of of town, four ponies were being chased by a gargolye. Suddenly, Zero appeared inbetween them, his Buster Sword at the ready. "You shall not harm these ponies vile heathen!" He said.

The gargolye just hissed, and attacked the Knight Gundam, only to be blocked by his Vatras. Zero then slashed the gargoyle, disintegrating it. Another gargolye tried to attack Zero from the right, only to be cut down by Grappler Gouf's sword.

"This isn't even a satisfying challenge." He said to Zero.

Meanwhile, eight gargoyles were attacking Twilight and Alex, who were protecting two fillies by creating a barrier around them. But they weren't sure how long they would hold it against the gargoyles' continuous attacks. Suddenly, Bakunatsumaru jumps above one of the gargoyles, and slices it in half. He slashes the second gargolye with quick success.

"You guys show dishonor by attacking these ponies! This will not go unpunished!" He exclaimed. The Mussha Gundam then charged at two more of the gargoyles, and cut them both in half. At the same time, Destroyer Dom rolled by. He fired his two bazookas at two of the remaining four gargoyles, completely obliterating them.

"Hah ha ha, flying grey creatures don't stand a chance!" He said, as he took out his Chain-sword, and cut down another gargolye, while his Gallop unleashed a full weapons barrage that destroyed the remaining one.

Twilight and the other ponies were amazed at how the robots were easily dispatching the gargoyles.

"Yeah! Way to go guys!" Shute cheered. Suddenly he heard a scream, and saw that Trixie was being taken by a gargolye. Shute raced toward them as the gargolye began to fly away with it's captive. Using his jet backpack, he took off after it, landing on the creature's back. Shute then took out his goo shooting stick, and shot goo into the gargoyle's eyes, causing it to drop Trixie as she fell screaming. Shute jumped off the gargoyle's back, activated his jet backpack and flew towards Trixie, while the gargolye smashed into another gargolye, destroying them both.

Shute flew underneath Trixie and reaching out with his forelegs, caught her as he landed safely on the ground. Trixie, noticing that she wasn't falling anymore, opened her eyes and saw Shute looking straight at her with a bold smile on his face. The moment she saw his face, the azure colored pony began to blush lightly.

"Don't worry." Shute said as he put Trixie down. "You're safe now."

"Oh." Trixie replied flusterly. "Of course." She looked away from him, still feeling nervous and timid in a way that would rival Fluttershy. Shute looked confused by the unicorn's behavior. Suddenly, another gargolye appeared infront of them, growling viciously and bearing it's fangs.

"Get behind me, quick!" Shute exclaimed to Trixie, as he readied his goo shooting stick. The gargolye prepared to lunge at Shute, when suddenly, a pebble hit it in the back of the head.

"Hey you big block-head!" A voice shouted from behind. The gargolye turned and saw Genkimaru and a Zako soldier standing there. "Bet you can't get us!" The little Mussha Gundam continued, as he pulled his right lower eyelid and stuck out his tongue.

"Nya na na na na nah, zako!" The Zako soldier added in the taunt.

This made the gargolye angry and start charging at them. As soon as it did, the other four Zakos appeared out of nowhere.

"Zako Ambush!" They shouted, latching onto the beast's arms and legs, trying to hold it down. The gargolye thrashed furiously to get the robots off of it.

"Maybe this wasn't a good idea after all, zako!" One of the Zakos said, he tried to hold on tightly for dear life.

Just then, Captain zoomed into the scene. Taking out his Beam Saber, he thrusted it into the gargolye from behind. The creature fell limp and crumbled to pieces, while the Zakos landed on the ground shaken. Captain then turned to Shute.

"Are you alright Shute?" He asked.

"Yeah, thanks Captain." Shute replied.

The gargolye leader, angry at the sight of these metal strangers defeating it's warriors, let out a loud and violent roar. This roar caused the remaining gargoyles to regroup to it, as they prepared to focus their attacks on the Gundam Force and Genki Energy Squad.

"It looks like they've now decided to make us their primary target." Zero said, as he and the others came to Shute and Captian's side.

"Well then. I think it's time we end this battle!" Bakunatsumaru suggested.

"Right!" Everyone exclaimed.

"Yeah go for it!" Shute shouted. At that moment, deep inside Captian's body, his Soul-Drive began to glow.

"Let's blow these winged freaks to smithereens!" Zapper Zaku said, as his hidden head component opened and began charging. Grappler Gouf's Missle-arm opened and was charging up aswell. Destroyer Dom's hidden chest component opened and also started charging.

"Tri Chaos Nova Cannon!" They shouted, and they fired at the gargoyles. The massive beam destroyed one huge group of gargoyles above the leader.

Next, Bakunatsumaru readied himself. His swords began to blaze with fire, as he began running fiercely.

"Secret Art! Bakunatsu! Tenkyoken!" He exclaimed, as he slashed his swords to create a fiery X that shot forward and wiped out another huge group of gargoyles to the left side of the leader.

Then, Zero prepared his attack, his Buster Sword glowing light blue.

"Lacroa Crescent Slash!" He announced, sending a big light blue slash wave that obliterated the remaining huge group of gargoyles to the right side of the leader. The gargolye leader was shocked by this.

Finally, everyone looked to Captain for his attack. And he didn't disappoint. His right fist began to glow and his eyes began to show fire in them. Captain then used his jetpack and took off towards the gargolye leader, and began to rotate his right arm very fast. Shute stood on his hindlegs and did the same action as Captain.

"And goooo!!!!" He shouted.

"Captain Punch!" Captain said loudly, thrusting his fist forward as it slammed into lead gargolye's face, completely turning the beast to ashes. As Captain landed back on the ground, he noticed all the ponies look at him and the others. There was silence at first, then the ponies let out a large array of cheers to them. Twilight and her friends came to Shute and the robots, cheering aswell.

"That was the most awsome thing I've ever seen!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"Ah'll say. You practically made mincemeat out of those gargoyles!" Applejack added.

"It was nothing at all." Captain said.

"Nothing? I don't think so." Twilight spoke. "I have a feeling the mayor will want to give you medals for this kind of heroics."

"Well that would be very nice, zako." One Zako said.

"And after that, I'll throw a great, big party!" Pinkie Pie said.

Shute turned to Trixie, only to find that she wasn't there.

"Hey." He spoke. "Where did that pony I saved go?"

"I don't know." Alex replied. "But I'm sure she's ok."

"By the way." Genkimaru said to Rainbow. "Remember what you said you'd do when gargoyles attacked the town?"

"Don't remind me." She said, upset that somepony mentioned that.

At Town Hall, Mayor Mare honorably congratulated Shute, the Gundam Force and the Genki Energy Squad, and gave each one of them a medal, announcing them as heros. The ponies cheered with excitement, while the Mane 7 came to their side.

"Twilight! Twilight!" A voice suddenly made itself known. The group looked in the crowd to see Spike running to them, with a scroll in his hand. When he got to the platform, he held it out to Twilight, who took it with her magic and began reading it. Then she let out a gasp and her eyes were wide shock.

"What is it Twilight? Asked Shute. "What does it say?"

"It's from Princess Celestia." Twilight answered, turning to him and the others. "It says she wants to meet with you."

Alex and the other girls gasped in surprised, while Shute, Captain, and the rest of were shocked.
