> Four Show Spectacular > by Superman365 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Introductions Are In Order, Dude > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- We all know about the fun, weird, kind, annoying, slick, crazy, magical, exciting, heartfelt, and fast-paced characters of four of the best shows ever: "My Little Pony:Friendship Is Magic", "Regular Show", "Steven Universe", and the original series from Netflix, "Turbo FAST". But what would it be like if these guys ever met, hung out, and went on an epic yet insane adventure? Basically it goes like this: In Ponyville, Spike, the Mane 6, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders, led by Alicorn Princess Twilight Sparkle, were gathered in the library, (go figure), of Twilight's own castle, watching in awe as Twilight tries to test out a new spell she's just created, which will allow for travel to other dimensions, it works, but not without a backfire or two as the newly-created portal sucks Twilight and her friends to an unknown destination. In The Park, the "Park Strikers" ,(in honor of their bowling team from "Skips Strikes"), along with Cart and Quips, were helping Skips clean out some extra junk to better empty out his room, until Muscle Man stumbles upon a weird medallion in the shape of an hourglass, but with the solar system engraved on it, and in his own funny yet messed up way, and swings it around with his shirt off, activating the ancient relic, and sending the Park Strikers off somewhere else in a flash. In Turbo-Town, ( formally known as Starlight City), Turbo and his gang, the Fast Action Stunt Team, were going for a few laps around their race track while reluctantly helping to test out a new hi-tech line of powerful boosters built by Skidmark, (cool guy, but a total paranoid nutcase if you ask me), to make them faster than they've ever been, but as they were about to make their twelfth lap while also about to pass Turbo's older yet overly-safe brother, Chet, who was helping with checking their time, the boosters prove to work too well as the team went so fast, that the second they pass the finish line, the team suddenly vanished along with Chet. Not long afterward, the Mane 6 and Crusaders, the Park Strikers, and the FAST team all appeared and landed in a familiar place known to us as:Beach City. ------ It was roughly five minutes when the three groups landed in their own way on a beach, and it wasn't long when the sparks started to fly. "Dude, this is messed up", said Mordecai. "Messed up like a fox! Zingo!", shouted Quips. "Yeah, right, this coming from a freakishly tall blue bird", said Rainbow. "Actually, he's a blue jay", said Fluttershy in a near whisper. "Same thing! Whoever you chumps are, you got some nerve if you think you can take us on!", shouted Rainbow. "Hey! Back off kid! We didn't even do anything yet! And you guys think I'M a jerk sometimes! Ow!", said Rigby, followed by a punch in the shoulder by Mordecai. "Not helping, dude", said Mordecai in a calm yet angry tone. "Look everyone, I don't really know what's going on here, but something tells me that we must all be pretty unique to be here, wherever 'here' is, apart from being on some beach", said Turbo. "Wow! You weren't kidding about UNIQUE! I've never seen a pants-wearing Yeti before!", shouted Skidmark after racing toward Skips, followed by zooming toward Rarity, "And a unicorn with a purple-colored mane! Amazing!" "I beg your pardon, but what is wrong with you?", asked Rarity while weirded out. "SO MUCH!!", yelled Skidmark with pure excitement. "So I've noticed", said Rarity, "By the way, since we're on a beach, I think I may as well take a little stroll". "Actually, Rarity, I don't think now's a good time for that", said Twilight, "Especially since we all got off on the wrong hoof here". "Yeah, I guess so. I think introductions are in order, dude", said Mordecai. "Ugh! Introductions?! LAME! Ow!", shouted Rigby, along with another punch from Mordecai, followed by strong yet brief introductions, and soon enough, the three groups were in harmony with one another. "Alright, this has been nice and all, but I don't suppose we all put our heads together and figure out where we are?", said Whiplash, before he and the others quickly and finally noticed a little town that's behind them, but not too far, and a water tower looming over the whole town with it's name on it, literally, "'Beach City'? Huh, never heard of that place before". "Maybe, because this world isn't any of ours, you idiot!", shouted Benson. "You got something to say to me, gum ball boy?! Say it to my face!", shouted Whiplash as he and Benson were furiously ready for a rumble, until Twilight got involved, (stopping fights is one of the things she's best known for). "Calm down, you two! This isn't helping!", shouted Twilight, but unable to get through to them. "Tell that to the smart-mouthed candy machine here!", shouted Whiplash. "At least I'm not a three-time loser like you, shell head!", shouted Benson as he and Whiplash were just about to duke it out, until Twilight suspends them in mid-air in a pair of light-purple magic bubbles. "What are you doing?! Let us out of here!", yelled Benson. "Not until you two calm yourselves down", said Twilight. "Really?", asked Whiplash and Benson in unison. "Yes, really!", shouted Twilight. "Fine then", said those two in unison once again, and just like that, Twilight lowered them to the ground and "deactivates" the bubbles. "There we go, now we need to learn more about this world", said Twilight, "So I suggest we head into town and see what we can find out from the residents". "Hold up! Learning? Asking? Dude, this reminds me of school! I hated school", said Rigby. "Same here!", shouted Rainbow. "Let's just go", said Twilight as she and the others began to explore the town, just as they entered the city, they encountered a girl sitting nearby with dark hair and glasses, wearing some kind of overalls, reading a little book while sitting on a nearby bench. "Hey kid! Think you could help us out? We're kinda lost or something", said Mordecai, that's when the girl took notice and was a little startled by having a strange band of individuals asking for help. "I'm guessing you guys aren't from around here", said the girl. "You guessed right, name's Mordecai, this here's my best pal Rigby, along with Benson, Pops, Skips and his cousin Quips, Cart, Thomas, Muscle Man and High Five Ghost, Twilight, Spike, Rainbow, Pinkie, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, AppleBloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, Turbo, Whiplash, Burn, Smoove Move, White Shadow, Chet, and Skidmark", said Mordecai, giving the introductions on everyone's behalf. "Sup", said Rainbow. "It's a pleasure", said Twilight. "Hey there", said Rigby. "White Shadow!", shouted Shadow, "Tell me if you've seen any suspicious-looking guys around here that seem pale white and huge black bulbous eyes! Like this!", shouted Skidmark as he quickly pulled out a crudely drawn picture of an alien, followed by ominous alien music coming from among them, only to find it's coming from Smoove Move playing a creepy tune from his speakers. "I always play the right tune for the right time, baby", said Smoove, followed by a brief moment of the others staring at him in irritation. "Haters", said Smoove in response to that, followed by a slight chuckle by the girl. " *chuckles* It's nice to meet you all", said the girl," My name's Connie, I can show you guys around town if you want". "That's not such a bad idea", said Whiplash. "Well Connie, lead the way", said Turbo as Connie guided the group throughout town, and introducing them to so many faces, from the Pizza Family of Fish Stew Pizza, to Fryman and his youngest son Pee-Dee of Fryman's Fries, to Sadie and Lars of the Big Doughnut, and they were now walking along the docks. "So girl, what's your story? Better be good", said Burn. "Oh, well a while ago, with my dad working as a private security guard, me and my parents moved around a lot, since he worked for a bunch of different beaches", said Connie. "So how'd ya end up sticking with this place?", asked Applejack. "Turned out the company that hired my dad was pretty impressed with his performance here than all the other beaches, so they were wiling to promote him so this would be his permanent work-place", said Connie. "And now that means ya folks don't gotta move around so much anymore", added Applejack. "That's nice and all, but I was kinda surprised we found you all on your own, I'm guessing your friends went someplace else", said Thomas. "Well, I actually don't have many friends", said Connie, followed by a gasp from the others. "Aliens don't have friends! Are you an undercover agent working to exploit our secrets?! Take me to your leader!", shouted Skidmark as Whiplash pushed him aside. "Now what are you saying kid? You've never made a friend? Cause that's just wrong", said Whiplash. "Even before I made this place my permanent home, I was basically alone, I never made a single friend in my life, until my first visit here of course", said Connie. "Well then, you simply MUST introduce us", said Rarity. "YAY!!!! More friends!", shouted Pinkie. "WHOOOOO!", shouted Muscle Man "Well, alright, I actually think it'd be a surprise if I don't say anything about them yet, not their bad, I just want it to be a surprise", said Connie, "In fact, I know where they live actually, just at the far end of the beach, come on, I'll show you". And that's when Connie led the groups to the far end of Beach City, where they gazed upon an impressive yet ancient looking temple, but at the base of it, there's an ordinary looking suburban house. "Nice pad, bro", said Muscle Man. "So, Connie, are these friends of yours gods or something?", asked Spike. "Eh, not exactly, but their really cool", said Connie as they all walked up the the door and knocked. Waiting for a few minutes without a single response made, they enter anyway, upon entering, the others get a look of the place and found it actually cool: half of the inside if like any other house, but at the far end was a part of the house that looked more like the temple's outside look, with a single door, with five colored circles on the center, and that's when a small round platform just in front of the door lighted up, and appeared three teenage girls and a little boy, all of whom seemed to strike a pose once they appeared. They all looked sort of unusual, one was the tallest, with a visor and an Afro, along with red skin and two red gems in her hands and stone-faced. The second was surprisingly shorter than the other two girls, with long white hair reaching down to her feet, purple skin, and a purple gem that seems to be in her chest. The third was the middle girl, meaning she was shorter than the first, but taller than the third, while she has pale near paper-white skin, short orange hair, and a gem in her forehead. As for the boy, he didn't seem exactly like the three girls, considering that he just seemed like an average boy with short black hair, except for part of his belly revealed by the slightly pulled-up shirt, revealing what appeared to be a gem in place where his belly button should be. And as they left their poses, they quickly took notice of Connie. "Sup, Connie?", said the short purple girl. "Hey Amethyst, Pearl, Garnet, Steven", said Connie. "So what brings you here? Is there gonna be another Dog-copter movie?! That'd be bananas", said the boy known as Steven, who seemed to be Connie's age but slightly shorter. "*giggles* No Steven, but I have something better, hang on for a second. Guys, I'd like you to meet the Crystal Gems", said Connie, as she and the Gems waited for a response, except that the three groups were still stunned from their arrival. "Greetings", said the tall red girl known as Garnet in a very calm and collective tone. "It's very nice to meet you all", said the middle girl known as Pearl. "Hey there!", shouted Steven. "You guys got any snacks?", asked Amethyst. "Um, no, but it's a pleasure to meet you all anyway", said Twilight on behalf of the others. "So, I'm hoping If you guys can share a little more about yourselves, we'll be glad to tell you about us", said Turbo. "And while you're at it, see if you kids can draw up a map that can lead us to all your hidden treasures!", shouted Skidmark. "That's weird, but yeah, I believe it's time for some proper introductions", said Pearl, followed by the same conduct that happened on the beach, except with the Crystal Gems this time. The Gems explained how since time began for their dimension, the Crystal Gems have always been around to protect humanity, with Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, and Steven being the latest, possibly the last, of the Crystal Gems. As it's also been explained, Steven's mother, Rose Quartz, was the fourth of the last Gems, until she gave up her form and life force to bring Steven into the world, while also passing down her gem. They've even shared with the others all the adventures they had so far. "Wow, sounds likes you guys have the worst luck", said Mordecai. "Hey, luck ain't got nothing to do with it, dude", said Amethyst. "Pfft! Yeah right", said Rigby. "Hey! Knock knock?", asked Quips. "Who's there?", asked Pearl. "Radio", said Quips. "'Radio' who?", asked Pearl. "'Radio' not, here I come! Zingo!", shouted Quips while thrusting his arms and chest, and it seemed like everyone actually found that funny as they all laughed together, except for the Park Strikers, who show that they found that painfully unfunny as they stood silent with an annoyed and angry look on their faces. "Dudes, you actually think that was funny?", asked Mordecai. "It was hilarious!", shouted Pinkie. "What's the matter, boys, can't take a joke? Cause it looked like the joke didn't wanna take you! Burn!", shouted Burn. "He used that joke on us before, and it wasn't funny the first time as it is now", said Benson "There's no way I'd actually laugh at whatever that flop factory says", said Muscle Man. "Are you guys serious or something? That was gold!", shouted Rainbow. "Yeah, we're serious about it", said Benson, "That guy makes bad jokes, simple as that". "And we're not talking bad as in 'kids shouldn't hear them' bad, I'm talking 'my ears would run away and I'd wanna jump off a cliff' bad", said Mordecai. "I'm not following on what you're implying here", said Rarity. "*groans* Dude, forget it, they wouldn't figure it out anyway", said Rigby. "I'm guessing you need some way of getting back to your home dimensions", said Garnet. "No, if I guessed right, I'd say we'd just need to get back home the same way we got here", said Skips, just as the others were reminded of how they all got to the Crystal Gems' home dimension in the first place. "So we can leave at any time is what yer sayin'?", asked Applejack. "That's what I'm saying, yeah", said Skips. "Then who said we have to leave right away, we can stick around, see if there's some things we all like, try to get to know each other", said Turbo. "That's a great idea, Turbo. We should try to put in some quality time, for fun, of course", said Twilight. "So what do you guys wanna do then?", asked Thomas. "Anything worth my time so long as it doesn't involve hunting for Bigfoot or any of that kind of nonsense", said Whiplash just before he turned and gave an angry look at Skidmark, with a thermal camera and a 'how to hunt Bigfoot' guide lying next to him. "Come on! Bigfoot is out there! I know it! There's no way he can hide if we track him down together!", shouted Skidmark with a crazed look on his face. "Now see, all I heard was blah blah blah Bigfoot, none of the stuff that matters after the Bigfoot part, blah blah, and that's that", said Whiplash. "Alright then, any other bright ideas that don't involve riding the crazy train? I'm all ears", said Benson. "You sure about that? Look to me your ears ran out on you! Burn!", shouted Burn, while Benson didn't find that so funny. Everyone stood in silence for a few minutes thinking of something, until Mordecai and Rigby spotted a grill partly in view behind the slightly open closet door behind them, and had a really awesome idea. "Cookout?", asked Mordecai. "Cookout", said Rigby. "Um, what?", asked Spike. COOKOUT! OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH!!!", shouted Mordecai and Rigby in unison, and not long, the cookout was in full swing outside the temple. Not everyone wanted to try to dress for their little party on the beach, but some went for it: Benson went for a Hawaiian shirt, Muscle Man just went shirtless, ( messed up enough he does that everyday while swinging his shirt around), Connie stuck with what she was already wearing but simply went barefoot, ( her outfit from the episode "Lion 2: The Movie", just that she's barefoot), the Gems went for their beach outfits again, (the beach outfits they wore in the episode: "Beach Party"), Rarity with a sun hat, and Pinkie wearing flippers along with a swimming ring around her. Everyone was having a blast: Mordecai and Rigby were riding in Cart doing beach-style doughnuts, Skips, Garnet, and Rarity were just kicking back in a trio of deck chairs, Benson and Quips were preparing the food, Fluttershy and Pops were combing the beachside for seashells to collect and any ocean critter to put back in the water, Applejack and the Crusaders were riding on Lion, Steven's pet and friend, Skidmark was searching the beach and monitoring the ocean for signs of the Loch Ness Monster, ("Nessie" lives in Scotland, I know that, try telling that to someone like Skidmark), while Connie was sitting cross-legged near the edge of the tide reading a little book, ( no surprise), Pinkie was swimming around not too far from the others, Smoove Move was with Connie as he pumped up the volume and played some epic surfing tunes from his speakers, Chet was monitoring the beach for any sign of danger to him and the others, yet acts a little bit of the usual scaredy cat routine as he panicked at the mere sight of a few measly so-called hazards, such as a couple shards of broken glass, a busted spork, and an empty salt packet, while Twilight, Thomas, Amethyst, White Shadow, Burn, Steven, Muscle Man and High Five Ghost were going with a four two-team volleyball match with the teams taking turns. The teams are Amethyst and Burn,Muscle Man and High Five Ghost, Steven and White Shadow, finally Thomas and Twilight, with Spike keeping score, while Pearl, Rainbow, and Whiplash exchanged stories and what their capable of, while they went for a walk on their own. "So you basically have more street smarts better than anyone else?", asked Pearl. "Don't forget that I ALWAYS know when there a challenge going down, especially a race, not to mention I REALLY don't like chumps", said Whiplash. "I already noticed that, by the way, Turbo mentioned you're pretty fast yourself", said Pearl. "You're darn right I am", said Whiplash with a little attitude. "Well, super speed is something that us Gems are capable of as well, so there's a good chance I'm faster than even you", said Pearl in a slightly bragging manner. "PLEASE! I'm one of the fastest flyers back home! I could out race BOTH of you with one hoof tied behind my back!", shouted Rainbow, followed by angry glares exchanged between those three. "Clearly, only ONE of us can be the fastest, so I say we settle this with a race", said Whiplash. "Alright then, we're just a couple of yards from the others, so this will be the starting line", said Pearl, "Now surprisingly, this beach is 54 miles long, so we'll race from here to the beach's end". "I'm SO gonna take you two down!", shouted Rainbow as a line was drawn in the sand, indicating the starting line, while the little trio got into their starting positions as Pearl did a few stretches, Rainbow readied her wings, and Whiplash activated his jet-turbine shell, then they got ready. "Match my pace, kids", said Whiplash. "Try matching EITHER of us, old man", said Pearl. "What she said, gramps", said Rainbow, and then they took off faster than a lightning strike. Pearl seems to be in first place and holding, until Whiplash put in a little more power in his jet-turbine, enough to give him the lead while pulling off a sonic boom, and now slightly ahead of Pearl, until Rainbow pulled off the same trick as she flapped her wings twice as fast and hard, creating a sonic rain-boom, and putting her slightly ahead of both of them. They were two miles away from the end of the beach and they were evenly matched despite the greatness of Pearl's sprinting, Rainbow's flying, and Whiplash's jet-turbine thrust. "Looks like it's a stand-off, guys!", yelled Pearl. "No way! Only one of us is crossing that line!", yelled Rainbow. "Fly-girl's right! This ain't over until the fastest one wins!", yelled Whiplash just before a surprise fourth racer zooms by so fast, the others stopped in their tracks, a dozen miles away from the end, stunned to see who had just outraced them. "And the fastest one, is me!", yelled Turbo as he dashed past the beach's end and vanished in the blink of an eye. "Did he just do what we saw him do?", asked Rainbow in surprise. "You mean that garden snail outraced all three of us without even trying and kept on going? Yes he did", said Whiplash," by the way, given how fast we went, how long do you think it's been already?" "About one whole minute, but I don't see why that matters", said Pearl just before Turbo came zooming in from the distance and zoomed past those three again, but stopping just a couple of feet in front of them. "That's why it matters, nice one there, garden snail, nice one", said Whiplash. "Did you just do what I think you did?", asked Rainbow. "You mean race around the whole world in a minute flat? Yeah, that I did", said Turbo. "I've gotta admit, that was truly outstanding, Turbo, and that no doubt shows you're the fastest,but I'm afraid that doesn't really count", said Pearl. "Yeah! You weren't really a part of the race!", shouted Rainbow. "I'd hate to say it, but these two kids do have a point, garden snail, if you wanted to really prove you're the fastest, which you are no doubt, you should've entered the race when it started, instead of charging in out of nowhere when we were almost done", said Whiplash. "Hey, you know I can't resist making an entrance. But if it means that much to you guys, then let's go again!", shouted Turbo just before he and the other three heard and felt a powerful roar from the distance, so powerful, it literally shook the planet. "What in the name of Equestria was THAT?!", yelled Rainbow. "I'm not sure, but it sounded like it was coming from that way", said Turbo as he used his eye-stalks to point at the way they came. "But that's near the temple!", shouted Pearl. "Where everyone else is!", shouted Whiplash. "Hurry! Let's go!", yelled Turbo as he, Whiplash, Pearl, and Rainbow zoomed back to the others with crazy fast speeds. Once they arrived, they quickly notice everyone is in freak-out mode, and once looking to their right at what's towering over them, they soon follow their example. Towering over them is a fearsome cargo-ship sized creature of Crystal Gem origin, with blue see-through skin revealing a round gem in the chest, but with the creature having arms, a serpent body, and the shape and face of a dinosaur. Skidmark, the only one more excited than terrified, shouts out to the creature. "I knew you'd show your face sooner or later, Nessie! I'll admit, you're looking a little blue around the scales, but I'm sure that won't be much of a problem, now lean in closer! I wanna get a buddy picture to put on the cover of next month's Paranoid Conspiracy Tabloid! I'll make sure to get your eyes!", yelled Skidmark as he readied a camera just before the creature leaned in with it's face close to Skidmark, just in time for him to snap a picture of him next to the creature. "Perfect! That's gonna be the scoop of the century! Skidmark and friends finally exposing the fearsome Loch Ness Monster itself!", shouted Skidmark just before the creature let out another mighty roar right at the paranoid snail. Everyone else were still in their freak-out poses, while Skidmark remained insane, but fearless. "Whoa! We have got to get you some monster-sized mints! Can't expose you with bad breath like that!", shouted Skidmark. > A Day With A Sea Monster, And Some Amazing New Friends > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "When we last left our story, the characters from four of televisions' best shows: Regular Show, My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic, Steven Universe, and the Netflix Original Series, Turbo FAST, unexpectingly meet in Beach City due to their own ways of traveling to other dimensions, accidentally or otherwise. Things get a little hairy at first, only for everyone to get to know each other, and admire each other so much, they throw a little good old fashioned cookout. Then it all falls apart when a giant serpent-like sea creature of Gem origin rises up from the ocean threatening to make lunch out of them all. Like I said, it's one of those days, alright". ------ The creature, with it's razor-sharp claws, jaws of death, menacing red glare in it's eyes, and formidable size, has the crew within it's sights, and it wasn't long before someone said a piece of obvious yet very noble info. "We're totally screwed", said Thomas, wishing he'd taken a day off instead, "and I didn't even finish my internship". "Ah think we got us bigger troubles than yer internship, partner", said Applejack, trying to get Thomas to turn his focus back on the strange sea monster that's about to eat them in one bite and use their bones as toothpicks. "Everyone! Don't panic! I've been preparing for this sort of event my whole life!", shouted Skidmark, acting all paranoid as usual. "You have?!", shouted Pearl. "Yes! First: remain absolutely still! It can't see us if we're frozen in place!", shouted Skidmark. "That only works in movies", said Skips. "Ooo....right. Okay then, forget step one! Let's focus on step two: WE SATISFY IT'S FURY WITH A SACRIFICE!! I nominate Spike the Dragon as the offering!", shouted Skidmark, pointing at Spike, with a very shocked and terrified look on his face. "WHAT?!", shouted Spike. "You breathe fire, so you'll serve as a fine offering! Unless of course you give the creature mild heart burn", said Skidmark as he looked upon Spike for tenderness and color. "If he's mild, I don't wanna know what spicy is! Zingo!", shouted Quips, expecting a laugh out of someone, only to get nothing. "Dude, not the best time for that right now", said Turbo as everyone else nodded in agreement. "Sorry, sorry about that", said Quips. "I can't be good enough of a sacrifice! I mean, look at me! I'm small, not plump enough, I'm even covered in scales! PLEASE, don't make that thing eat me!", shouted Spike in sheer terror and quivering in fear, until Twilight got close and wrapped her right front arm/leg around Spike to re-assure him. "Calm down, Spike. That's not going to happen. We wouldn't even think about doing something like that, RIGHT Skidmark?!", shouted Twilight, directly toward Skidmark for letting his insanity help him think of talking about Spike as he were expendable. "Rrriigghhht! Exactly! So instead, let 's go with step three, and this is the most important one: CAPTURE IT AND EXPERIMENT ON IT!!! I'll get the knock-out gas! Oh, and a death-ray, never know when it all comes down to sheer obliteration of the creature and study what's left of it!", shouted Skidmark, with a checklist and experimentation kit ready. "Well, since OBVIOUSLY we won't settle with a crazy plan like that, it looks like we're gonna have to fight", said Whiplash with determination. "Against THAT?! That thing's as big as a ship!", shouted Turbo. "Thanks for pointing that out, Captain Obvious, like the situation isn't bad enough as it is", said Benson, then getting a "little" frustrated with the creature staying frozen in place, lurking over them, "Will someone tell me why that thing is just sitting around doing nothing?!?!" "It's not doing nothing, it's studying us, trying to figure out if whether or not we make a decent meal for it", said Garnet. "In that case, I don't think we have enough burgers or hot dogs, so I can head into town to get us all some take-out", said White Shadow, being hilariously dim-witted as usual. "I meant that WE'RE the meal", said Garnet. "Ooo, so no take-out then? Hey, does that big guy have a drooling problem or something?", asked White Shadow, as he noticed the creature showing it's teeth while producing a steady flow of saliva and emmiting a low growl. "It doesn't have a drooling problem, it's just decided it's lunch time", said Garnet. "Bad show", said Pops in a hint of fear. "Agreed", said Rarity, also in fear. "EVERYBODY TAKE COVER!!", shouted Skips as the creature made a dash for the group right before they all split up and ducked behind whatever they could use for cover. Skips used this to his advantage as he grabbed one of the chairs and smashed it against the creature's face, only for the creature to feel irritated as it smacks Skips to the side with it's right arm, and right into a rock, leaving him unconscious. Garnet steps in as she summons her gauntlets, made a leap up to the creature's head and landed a powerful right uppercut, dealing some serious damage, but then the creature returned the favor as it plucked Garnet right out of the air, held her up high as she struggled out of it's grip, and then slams her down into the ground hard enough to leave her out cold. The creature then readies itself to deliver a final blow, until Applejack and Quips made their move as they worked together to drag Garnet to safety just before the creature used the head dash move from before, and ends up getting it's head stuck in the sand for a few minutes. "Man, this kid weighs a ton! Bet she could give bears a run for their money! Zingo!", shouted Quips, but all he gets is an angry glare from Applejack as she and Quips drag Garnet behind a sand dune for cover. "Seriously?! Ya gotta tell a joke now?! We gots us bigger problems on deck, partner!", shouted Applejack, trying to get Quips back on track. "Sorry! I'll stop now! For real!", shouted Quips, just before he and Applejack managed to duck behind a sand dune, keeping Garnet safe until she wakes up. While the creature is still trying to pull it's head out of the sand, that's when Rainbow Dash swoops in and starts dishing out a bunch of kicking blows to the creature's back. "Ha! How do ya like me now?! You ain't so tough!", shouted Rainbow, being incredibly over-confident, as usual. "Rainbow, get out of there! You don't know just how dangerous this monster really is!", shouted Pearl. "Chill out, would ya? I totally got this chump!", shouted Rainbow, until the creature finally managed to pull it's head free and turn around to look it's flying attacker right in the eye with a whole lotta anger, and Rainbow responds with a nervous smile. Then the creature seats Rainbow, sending her out to sea and into the sea. "Rainbow!", shouted Twilight as she took flight and went out to rescue Rainbow before she eventually drowns. "Great, Rainbow, Skips, and Garnet are down for the count, we're definitely screwed now", said Thomas in slight grief. "Not yet we aren't! Time to show those chumps how to get thing done the right way!", shouted Whiplash. "Oh! Tease him with the funky chicken dance!", shouted Pinkie Pie. "And how, pray tell, do you believe such a silly dance can save us from that HORRIFYING creature?!", demanded Rarity. "It'll be way too busy laughing it's head off, it won't notice us running away, then we all wear fake mustaches and spend our lives in the hills raising cows! Mooooo!!", shouted Pinkie. "You had me at the mustache bit, but we're gonna need some firepower to take this thing down", said Turbo. "I thought you'd never ask!", shouted Skidmark as he dashed toward Whiplash, with a very excited and psychotic look on his face. "You remember that time in Africa where you used your shell's jet turbine like a blaster to shoot those diamonds at those vicious meerkats?!", shouted Skidmark. "You found diamonds?!", shouted Rarity. "You shot at meerkats?!", shouted Fluttershy. "Save that for later you two!", shouted Whiplash, then turning his attention back to Skidmark, "Anyway, what does that have to do with THIS situation?" "Welllll, it's this!", shouted Skidmark as he hit a secret switch on the turbine, and in a matter of seconds, part of the turbine transformed to allow Whiplash to use the turbine as a powerful gattlin' laser. "Whoa! Since when did you have time to do this?", asked Whiplash. "Wouldn't YOU like to know?", asked Skidmark. "Yeah, I WOULD!", shouted Whiplash, right before he pointed the laser right at Skidmark's face, being grateful for an upgrade like that, but also dislikes the fact that Skidmark tampered with his shell without his permission. "I'd suggest you point that not at me, but at the menacing sea monster that has you in it's sights", said Skidmark as Whiplash turned around for a moment to see the creature was definitely locked on target, and made a head dash again, right before Skidmark and Whiplash zoomed out of the way. The creature seems to be getting angrier the longer it takes for it to enjoy it's meal, and that's when Whiplash tests out his surprise upgrade by unleashing a flurry of lasers at the creature, leaving it's skin covered in laser marks, but not enough on it's own to take that thing out. Then Skidmark makes a break for Smoove Move, even more excited than he already was. "Hey Smoove! Wanna check out what I did to YOUR shell?!", shouted Skidmark. "Lay it on me, baby", said Smoove, and then Skidmark hits a secret switch on the side of Smoove's shell, and when his speakers pop out, parts of them transform as well to amplify the speakers so they act as powerful dual sonic cannons, "Beautiful, that's some serious accessorizing right there". "Exactly, now go with Whiplash and unleash your sonic fury!", shouted Skidmark, before Smoove zoomed off to help Whiplash, who still had the creature occupied thanks to his laser-shooting shell, and then Smoove hurls a pebble at the creature to get it to turn around and notice him. "Hey player-hater! Check out Smoove Move as he dishes out some heavy beats!", shouted Smoove right before he begins blasting a load of powerful sound waves at the creature, resulting in the creature yelling out in anguish as it grasps both sides of it's head, guess loud music really is bad for people. As the creature furiously swats at the barrage of lasers and sound waves dished out by Whiplash and Smoove Move, Pearl quickly thinks up a brilliant plan. "Everyone! We need to work together to restrain the creature long enough to deliver a final blow! Applejack and Amethyst! Take care of the arms!", shouted Pearl. "Now THAT there is a plan! Let's do it y'all!", shouted Applejack as she pulled out a bundle of rope from her travel bags and used it to lasso the creature's right arm, " Ah knew this would come in handy!" "Hey! Don't HOG all the fun for yourself!", shouted Amethyst as she summoned her whip and lassos the creature's left arm. "Was that a farm joke?!", demanded Applejack. "Just thought I'd lighten up the moooood!", shouted Amethyst. "This ain't the time for jokes!", yelled Applejack. "It's always time for a good joke!", shouted Amethyst. "Finally! Someone who gets the idea!", shouted Quips, and that's when everyone remembered that those two are struggling greatly. "Hey! You knuckle-heads enjoying the show?!", shouted Amethyst. "Y'all get over here and pitch in! We ain't that strong, ya know!", shouted Applejack as she and Amethyst are having a hard time with the creature fighting against their efforts. That's when everyone else stepped in: Mordecai and Rigby, Steven, Rarity, Burn, Turbo, Skidmark, Connie, Benson, and Thomas help out Amethyst with her whip, while Pops, Lion, the Crusaders, White Shadow, Quips, Cart, Fluttershy, Spike, Chet, Muscle Man and High Five Ghost help Applejack with her end of the lasso. Everyone's combined efforts are proving effective as the creature now has very little mobility of it's arms, but can still access the use of it's serpent-like head, and was about to perform a head dash once more, until Skips and Garnet, both of which regained consciousness shortly before Pearl announced her plan, made quick work by jumping up to the creature and using their combined strength to ensure the neck would be left immobile. With the creature restrained, all that was left was the final step. "Great work, everyone! Keep it still for just a bit longer, while I finish the job!", shouted Pearl as she summons her spear, and aims for the creature's upper torso. Pearl was just about to make her move, until a magic blast hits the back of the creature's head, and it's revealed to be Twilight flying in, with Rainbow flying very high above all the way to the clouds. "INCOMING!!!", yelled Rainbow as she plummets from the sky to perform a powerful air attack, and collides with the creature's head and slams it into the ground so hard, it produces a sonic rainboom. By the time the sand settled, everyone stood in absolute amazement to see Rainbow, standing proudly on top of the lifeless creature's head. "THAT WAS TOTALLY EPIC!!", yelled Rainbow, as Twilight landed beside the creature's body. "And not to mention it worked out exactly the way I planned it", said Twilight, proud of her genius planning, as usual, but Pearl didn't really feel the same way. "WHAT WERE YOU TWO THINKING?!", demanded Pearl. "I formulated a plan to have Rainbow perform an extreme air attack in order to bring the creature down", said Twilight with confidence. "And was a totally awesome plan!", shouted Rainbow, followed by a brief victory dance. "That was all wrong! You completely ruined everything!", shouted Pearl. "Well, that wasn't what we had in mind, but I really don't see what's the harm. That thing's dead, it can't rip us apart, way I see it, we're fine.", said Turbo, trying to help things settle down. "The HARM, is that we were supposed to IMPALE the creature, not the slam it's head into the ground!", shouted Pearl. "I don't see why's that a big problem, bro", said Muscle Man, then all of a sudden the creature's body starts to glow brightly, including the lower half of it that's in the water. "Oh no, bro", said Muscle Man, as the creature's body begins to morph into something else, and a minute later, it's morphed into at least four dozen box sized versions of itself that can move on land as well. "I hate it when no one listens. Alright, everyone spread out and find the head clone! That's the original one with the gem in it! Take that one out, and the other clones go down too!", shouted Pearl. "Forget that noise, dude! Let's just beat'em all up!", shouted Rigby. "Yeah dude, I'm in for giving these things a piece of our mind for wrecking our rad cookout!", shouted Mordecai. "Wait!! That's not a plan!", shouted Pearl. "Exactly! THAT, my friend, is the awesome power of IMPROVISATION!! Attack!!", yelled Skidmark as the group, in various ways, charge right in and start pummeling away at the little pests. "Well, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em!", shouted Pearl as she charges in with her spear, gracefully kicking and stabbing and slicing up various little clones leaping at her like the samurai ballerina she is. Meanwhile, Whiplash blasts at a few clones with his laser shell with ease. "Hey Dash! That's three more for me! Try to keep up, kid!", shouted Whiplash. "Yeah? Well, you oughta know I'm not a real egghead with numbers and all that stuff!", shouted Rainbow as she buck-kicks a pair of clones and then performs a dash attack on another one, sending it flying right into four more. "Fine! I'll make it less complicated for you, kid! Whoever takes the last clone out, wins it all!", shouted Whiplash as he speeds his way through seven more clones and blasting them all into oblivion. "Now that, I can do, gramps!", shouted Rainbow as she flies up, then straight back down to slam one clone while producing a powerful shockwave that blows away five more nearby. As for the others: Mordecai and Rigby are punching, kicking, and swinging a rake and shovel at a whole bunch of baddies, Turbo is using his super speed to trip up several clones while Burn uses her flamethrower shell to finish them off and fry up some fish food, Fluttershy, Rarity and Chet trick a few clones into chasing them, and then Lion, with Connie and Spike riding him, leaps in and delivers a mighty sonic roar, turning those clones to dust, Cart and White Shadow pair up and start ramming clones left and right, Thomas and Benson just start punching at some clones, Twilight uses her magic blasts to vaporize some more, Skips deals out some powerful punches to some clones as well, Smoove Move dishes some devastating sound waves at bunches of clones with his dual sonic speakers, and getting all funky with it, Muscle Man and High Five Ghost team up with Garnet to lay a serious smack down on a bunch of clones that's ganged up on them, pretty bad odds, for the clones at least, Pops unleashes the wrestler in him once again as he surprisingly body slams, throws, and knocks around various clones, Applejack uses her lasso to hog-tie a few clones while Amethyst does the same with her whip and they both work to swing and knock their hauls into each other, Steven, the Crusaders, and Quips work to get a few clones to chase them as well, leaving it all for Skidmark as he uses his propeller shell to literally blow away those clones into a few jagged rocks, destroying them instantly, followed by some stuff Skidmark shouts out about sending them back to the depths of darkness from once they came, while Quips uses that as an excuse to make up another joke. After an intense rumble, the sand had settled, revealing only one clone remained, which happened to be the original since it took so long to take care of that mess, with Whiplash and Rainbow setting their sights on it. "Last one, kid! Think you can handle losing like a chump?", asked Whiplash. "The only chump here is YOU, gramps! Victory belongs to yours truly!", shouted Rainbow as she and Whiplash readied themselves to finish it, one eagerly wanting to take the final creature out before the other, but that was taken from them as Garnet comes up from behind the final creature, picks it up, slams it into the ground, and takes it out with a solid right hook. "Garnet wins", said Garnet as she stands tall with a smirk on her face, along with the gem in hand, as she bubbles it, and sends it back to the Temple. "Sometimes, I just plain hate kids", said Whiplash with a frustrated look on his face while Rainbow ends up with a surprised look on her face. "Best two out of three next time?", asked Rainbow. "Definitely", said Whiplash, right before he and everyone else realize the ginormous mess strewn all over their little part of the beach they were having their cookout at, "So, what do we do about all this?" "Not to worry, I've got a couple of my best guys on it" said Benson. "I doubt it", said Whiplash. "No, seriously, and it just so happens their names are Mordecai and Rigby", said Benson, then turning his gaze at the duo. "Wait, there's another couple of guys named Mordecai and Rigby? We gotta meet them!", shouted White Shadow. "No, I'm talking about these two!", shouted Benson. "Aw what?! We can't clean all this up! It's crazy!", shouted Mordecai. "CLEAN THIS MESS UP RIGHT NOW OR YOU'RE FIRED!!", yelled Benson. "You can't fire us! We're not even at The Park!", shouted Rigby. "That's right, dude! You got no authority over us here!", shouted Mordecai. "Exactly! Just like how the government has no authority over alien overlords!", shouted Skidmark. "Oooooooooooooooohhhhhh!!!!!", shouted Mordecai and Rigby in unison. "*sighs* Why do I even bother?", asked Benson. "I'll get the garbage cans", said Thomas, and with that, the whole group gets to work. Took longer than expected, but they pulled it off: they managed to clean up that whole mess, minus the scorch marks left in the sand by Whiplash's laser. An hour later, the whole group conveyed in front of the Temple, for some final goodbyes, sort of. "I look forward to our next encounter, beings from another world, where I'll most likely run some incredibly painful and very long experiments on you all!", shouted Skidmark. "Um, thanks Skidmark, you're too kind", said Pearl, not the least bit disturbed. "Really wish you guys could stick around a little longer. There's so much we didn't get to do together", said Steven. "Yeah, like the new entry in the Dog-Copter franchise. I really love those movies", said Connie. "They even got something called the Dog-Nut! It's this hot dog with some donuts mashed together!", shouted Amethyst. "Yeah, but I think we're good. Besides, we got a bunch of other stuff to deal with back home", said Mordecai. "Yeah, like working in a lame park", said Rigby. "And since I'm a princess, I have many great responsibilities in Equstria", said Twilight. "As for me and the crew here, being famous worldwide really eats up a lot of our time", said Turbo. "But now, we're all able to visit each other whenever we want. This isn't goodbye, it's just goodbye till next time", said Twilight, and so everyone said some more farewells. "Stay safe, and wash your hands after touching everything around you", said Chet. "Keep on truckin", said Cart. "This coming from a teeny little baby cart like you?! Burn!", shouted Burn. "Not cool", said Cart, and with that, the Park Strikers used the medallion to teleport out of there, the Mane 6 and Cutie Mark Crusaders got together as Twilight fired up her spell and went through the portal, while the FAST crew said a few more goodbyes to the Crystal Gems, fired up those experimental thrusters, sped off and vanished into thin air. "So what's for lunch?", asked Amethyst, as Pearl groans in response. Then, the FAST crew finally returns to Turbo-Town, as if nothing ever happened. "*sighs* It's good to be home. Traveling to another world is cool and all, but I don't think I'd ever trade that for the world we live in", said Turbo. "You said it. Hey! We should check out the stand to see if Tito can make us some yummy Tomacos, with extra hot sauce!", shouted White Shadow. "I vote we DON'T go with adding any more gut-burning sauce to the Tomacos than there already is", said Chet, after what happened last time he ate a Tomaco, which resulted in setting his tongue on fire. "Race ya!", shouted Burn, and in an instant, most of the crew sped off to Dos Bros, leaving Whiplash and Chet behind. "I don't know why I even bother", said Chet as he activates his shellicopter and follows the others. Whiplash was just about to join them, until he heard something behind him. "Travel to other worlds, huh? Interesting", said a mysterious voice from behind the seating booths, and coming out of the shadows to make an appearance was none other than Whiplash's old snail mentor turned heartless con-artist. "Breakneck", said Whiplash with as much bitterness as possible. "*chuckles* It's been too long, garden snail", said Breakneck, with an evil grin on his face. "Not long enough! After you busted out of snail-jail months ago without a trace whatsoever, I was hoping you'd STAY gone", said Whiplash. "Nothing would've made me happier than to stay as far away from this dump of a town as possible, unt I decided to see how things are going here, then I come by your precious little race track to see you, Turbo and your petty crew pop out of nowhere, talking about being able to go to other worlds. Something like that opens up an endless variety of possibilities for a snail of my many talents", said Breakneck. "'Tricks' is more like it, and if I were you, I wouldn't count on something like that happening any time soon", said Whiplash. "Don't be so dull, garden snail! Anything's possible for a snail like me, and with a little help from the right tools", said Breakneck, followed by the sound of an engine all reved up, and to Whiplash's surprise was, in full view, a super shell, similar to the ones used by the FAST crew knockoffs a while back, made especially for Breakneck, with similar design to that of Turbo's shell, with a black and silver paint job. "Where did you get that?!", demanded Whiplash. "Believe it or not, I have friends in high places", said Breakneck. "I really shouldn't be so surprised you'd get yourself something like that", said Whiplash, with even more bitterness than before. "Well then I guess you're getting slow. See you around! Hahaha!", shouted Breakneck as he sped off into the distance, leaving Whiplash alone, more angry than ever. "DA DA DA!!!!", shouted Skidmark, followed by a smack on the head by Whiplash.
