Chapter 1: Flashback to before Rainbow Rocks


The morning begins in the human world of Canterlot Heights. People are waking up a brand new day to begin their activities. In a mansion, a boy is waking up in his room, tired and having messy hair. He groans and checks to see what time it is.

Ben smiles at the time on the clock. It is now 7 o'clock...and on a Saturday too. Good, time to get up and get going. He is going to meet Twilight and the others at the Sweet Shoppe for some hanging. He manages to get his usual clothes on, Triforce shirt and all, fixed his hair nice and neat. Ben wants to look nice and neat for Twilight. Perfect!

Before he stepped out of his room, Ben then remembered something.

"Oh! Almost forgot." Ben said. He then ran over to a nearby tank, where his pet monitor lizard Nightclaw was sleeping. "Here's some breakfast, Nightclaw."

After Ben slid down the railing of the stairs, he came into the kitchen. The boy spots his mother, Principal Celestia, washing dishes by the sink. He smirks devilishly while sneaking up behind her. Ben hold his breath as if he's about to roar and try to scare her....

"Don't even think about it." Celestia said bored without even turning around. Ben let his breath out, frowning.

"Awww, mom, how did you know?" Ben ask with a pouty look while grabbing some treats off a nearby tray.

"I'm your mother, I know everything, Ben. So where are you heading?"

"I thought you knew everything."

Celestia smirks, shaking her head while ruffling Ben's hair, much to his embarrassment. The woman comment with a giggle, "A smart aleck, just like your father."

"I'm heading to the Sweet Shoppe to hang with Flash and the others. I'll catch you later, mom." Ben said as he goes by. The boy passes by his grown up wolf Koga who is sitting under the table. He passes some treats which the wolf was happy to eat. "Hey, boy."

"Ben, stop treating Koga like that. He's on a diet."

"Yeah, yeah." Ben remarks, rolling his eyes as he heads out. The boy yelps as he almost collides with his aunt Vice-Principal Luna who is coming in. "Oops! Sorry, Aunt Luna!"

"It’s okay, Ben." Luna chuckles as Ben rushes out. The woman smiles as she chuckles, "Always in a hurry. Just like when you were little, Tia."

"Yeah, but I always remember not to fattening up the family dog." Celestia remarks, giving a look to Koga who is finishing licking his lips. Honestly, Ben spoils that wolf!

-------------

Somewhere, mysterious happenings are taking place. A phone is being held while a number is being dialed. Someone's voice is heard on the other end, "Hello?"

A figure spoke in a demonically like voice into the speaking part of the phone, "I...am...reborn! I shall feast on your entrails and devour your sooooooouuuuulllll!!!" A familiar voice is heard giggling in delight, trying to detain herself.

A woman's voice spoke on the other end before hanging up in terror. A pause...then laughter is heard like mad as Rainbow puts down the voice changer design with Rarity giggling, holding her cell phone which has a weird device on it. The Main Five, Flash, Sunset, the CMC and Vinyl Scratch laughs a bit.

"Gotta admit, Rainbow, swiping 'de device fer phones 'ta keep caller IDs fro' finding us...as well as 'dat voice changer design." Applejack remarks with a smirk while Rarity took the Anti-Caller ID device off her phone. "A stroke o' genius, sugah cube!"

"Yep. The Dragon Strike Force had truly found a way to change the ways of prank phone calling." Rainbow remarks with a smile as she sits in her chair in satisfaction. "It's the gift that keeps on giving."

Scootaloo checks her watch, frowning as she ask, "What's taking them so long? I hate waiting."

"Right. I mean, Nyx should be here with Twilight and Ben right about now." Sweetie complains in agreement.

"Patience is a hard virtue to swallow, Sweetie Belle." Rarity said as she hangs up her phone calmly. "They will get here."

"Hey, there's Ben now." Sunset said as she spots Ben coming into the Sweet Shoppe. The girl waves her hand to get his attention. "Over here, Ben!"

"Hey Flash, girls." Ben said as he came over to sit with his friends. "Is Twilight and Nyx here yet?"

"No, not yet." Fluttershy said quietly. "We were hoping they be with you."

"Yeah, so where the hay are they?"

"Keep your jets on, Benjamin. I'm here." A familiar voice spoke up. The gang turns to see Twilight, wearing her glasses but still has her clothes from when the girl first met her new friends, coming over with her sister Nyx who waves. "Oh, I hope we're not too late."

"Uh oh. Nerd alert!" Rainbow jokes a bit, getting a bit of a chuckle from Vinyl.

"Rainbow." Ben said, rolling his eyes at this. He got up to help his girlfriend into her seat. "To your seat, my lady."

"Thank you." Twilight said smiling as she sat down near Ben. Nyx goes over to sit with her friends. "So, how are things at Canterlot High? Especially since..."

"Yeah, 'de incident wit' 'de Battle o' 'de Bands." Applejack remarks with a chuckle, recalling that incident. "Yeah, it was intense, but things got cleaned up. Shame yew miss it, especially since yew went back 'ta Crystal Prep after what happened wit' Boris."

"Oh yeah, Boris the Animal." Nyx remarks with a cute chuckle, her friends follow. "Boy, was that fight intense."

"I would never forget that one." Flash said while tuning up his guitar. "Sunset was still gaining acceptance at the time."

"I haven't forgotten." Sunset said with a sigh while sitting back in her chair. "I was reformed, though most of everyone didn't trust me..."

"Are we going into a story of what happened?" Sweetie ask Sunset curiously.

"Yes, yes we are..."

--------------------

It was one week after the Fall Formal. Twilight, the Equestrian version, went home with Spike, Ben, Nyx and Phobos, the ones from her worlds. As things are cleaning up and going back to normal (without Sunset's reign), Flash and the Mane Five sat near the statue, pondering on what to do with Sunset.

"Girls, come on. We have to help her. I know what she did was wrong... But deep down, she's alone. I don't want her to be upset. After all we did promise Twilight we would help her." Flash said, glancing at Sunset who is taking a break from rebuilding the entrance to the school after she ripped it open during her Demon state.

Fluttershy nodded while adding, "Flash's right, we should help her. After all, she did said that she didn't know that there was another way to win students' trusts.

"Oh, I dunno." Rainbow said in doubt and concern. "After what she did to us, would we even trust her?"

"Right, shoot, she lied 'ta us before an' Ah can't stand liars." Applejack remarked, bitter over the lies and trouble that Sunset has given him.

"Not to mention what she did to me as well!" Rarity exclaimed with a scoff. "Why bother?"

"Awww, come on, girls!" Pinkie exclaimed, hanging over the statue. "People should be given another chance! We gave each other another chance at friendship and we should do the same thing for Sunset!"

"Yeah, but where do we start if we need to get Sunset to redeem herself?" Fluttershy asked.

"One step at a time!" Pinkie exclaims, jumping off the statue, putting in one step. "Anyway, Twlight would want us to help her with friendship, so it's time we do so."

"You're right. An’ so would ‘de rest o’ ‘de group ‘dat went wit’ her." Applejack said with a smile.

The group nodded as they headed over to the tired Sunset, who looked up to see them. Rarity spoke up, "We decided, Miss Shimmer. We shall honor our promise to Twilight, the Equestrian one, and help you with friendship."

"That way, you may never be alone again." Flash said to his former girlfriend with a grin.

Sunset sighed, "Thanks. I promised - I'll try my best to make friends. Hopefully I don't cause any more problems."

"I sure hope so." Rainbow remarked.

"Right! We will have more fun than doing the movie 'Cupcakes'!" Pinkie exclaimed happily.

"Pinkie! I thought we agree to never bring that up again!" Rainbow exclaimed, shivering at the thought of making the film that resulted in her own death (fake, of course).

"Ignoring that comment, we will do our best to help you." Rarity said with a smile to her new friend who gave a smile of hope.

"It may done take a while, but we can git ya friendship an' acceptance." Applejack said, winking an eye to her friend. "An' 'dat ain't no lie!"

"Everybody!" Apple Bloom exclaimed excitedly as she, Sweetie and Scootaloo rush up to the group. "Yew won't believe whose coming! They're here! Our best friends' human version are here!"

"Yes! They're here to study! That means-!" Sweetie said, getting excited by the minute that she could burst.

"We can finally have fun together with them! Just like before! This is gonna be great!" Scootaloo exclaimed eagerly, pounding a fist into one hand.

"Wow! I'm glad to hear that!" Pinkie exclaimed, jumping and down.

"It's great to be around Ben and Twilight again." Flash said with a big smile.

"If they're coming, they are enrolling right now!" Rainbow exclaimed eagerly as she jumped up...landing on her face. As she got up, the girl groaned, "Ugh, would I do anything to have wings again.""

"Well, the magic is gone, I guess." Fluttershy said, then she remembered something. "Well, except for..."

"Yes, yes, we know, Fluittershy, we know." Rarity said with a chuckle.

"Come on, everybody. We'd better go an' meet them now!" Applejack exclaimed with a smile, wanting to meet the human versions of her friends.

--------------------

The girls didn't waste time in getting over to Principal Celestia's office since they knew that she would want them there. Twilight, Ben and Nyx were there, along with Twilight's brother Starlight, all of them were a bit excited to be attending school here, even though it was the Equestrian versions of the first three who had experience.

"Twilight, great for you to be here...even though you are on an exchange program." Sunset said, brushing her hair a bit.

"Right, my brother Shining is excited too for us coming here." Twilight said with a grin to her friends. "He is in college right now, planning on enrolling in the police academy after graduation."

"I can't wait to make some friends here!" Nyx said excitedly.

"You already did, though it was...your other self." Sweetie said with a giggle, recalling Nyx's Equestrian self who was here temporarily.

Celestia finally finished putting Ben's enrollment form away. The principal grinned to her son as she spoke, “Ben... You don't know how happy I really am to see you here in my school. I'm glad to have you here., son.” 

"Thanks, mom. I'm also glad to be here, too." Ben said with a smile, scratching the back of his head. Twilight giggled as he added, "It's so hard to believe that everyone we know are here, too. It's great to have everyone we know here."

"Yeah... I can't wait to meet the other me. It's gonna be great!" Nyx exclaimed happily. 

“Yeah! Me too. I want to know what they looked like.” Starlight said, wanting to meet the Equestrian version of his sisters, along with Nyx. How sad that the boy had no clue as to what happened to his other self! 

"Unfortunately, you can't." Luna said in concern to the students old and new. "As we had said before, the portal to their world was closed. It's impossible to get to them. I'm sorry." 

"Aw, man!" Nyx groaned.

"I know. I was hoping to know my other self is like." Starlight said gloomy.

Sunset gulped a bit, recalling what the Superior, when she was bad, once told her. The girl said, "I'm sure you will find out...eventually..."

"Still, it would've been awesome to meet myself." Ben said, crossing his arms while groaning.

"It doesn't matter. But more importantly, you will be making more friends." Celestia said, hugging Ben a bit while nodding to Twilight and her siblings. "I hope that will sharpen your confidence, Ben. I believe you would do the same."

"I know I will, Mom." Ben said as he hugged his mother back.

"Good. I believe that you have class to get to." Luna said, motioning the students to leave to get to class.

Twilight and her friends left to attend some classes. Celestia smiled as she said, "I'm just glad to see my son here. But..." The woman sighed in concern. "I wonder why Shadow Dragon and his team decided in becoming staff members at our school. I feel like... this is too surprising..." 

Luna nodded in agreement with her sister, adding, "Yes, it is surprising. Ever since you and your former husband had an argument, Azure hasn't been speaking or talking with anyone of us." The woman scoffed a bit. "I'm just glad that he's not here to punch Jack's face. It would be hilarious to see that." 

Celestia sighed, shaking her head as she spoke, "I guess you're right. But... I feel uncomfortable lately. I know I should be happy for him to be here for Iris. But... it bothers me something else..." 

"I agreed. I've told the students to keep their mouths shut and keep the video shots from being show to anyone outside of Canterlot High." Luna said seriously. After the event involving Sunset Shimmer, the vice-principal orders the students to never say anything about what happened. After the incident years ago involving the Autobots and Decepticons in Chicago, the last thing the school wants is military forces investigating an 'alien matter'. "That includes the Dragon Strike Force. I have the feeling that they're here to investigate the situation."

Celestia nodded, adding, "That's not surprising. But yes, Luna; we should keep our guard up. We can't let anyone knows the secret." 

"Agreed. I'm just glad that it's just the Dragon Strike Force who are the only ones here to investigate." Luna adds seriously. She hated for anyone else to notice and decides to use the matter to their advantage. 

---------------------

Twilight and their friends continue on their way, ready to go inside class. Just then, Twilight's phone began to ring, much to the others' notice.

"You guys go ahead. My brother keeps calling me again. He can be worry and protective sometimes." Twilight said with a meekish smile. The others nodded and headed on ahead while she took her cellphone out and speaks into it, "Hello?" 

"Twilight... Did Celestia suspect you?" The familiar voice of Azure Phoenix asked Twilight seriously.

Twilight gulped and made sure that no one else was listening in. The girl had been asked by Azure to help investigate the incident that happened recently at Canterlot High. She hated to deceive her new friends, especially Ben, Starlight and Nyx…but Azure insisted on her status as a spy to be kept a secret. 

Twilight then whispered into the phone, "No, sir. Not yet." 

"Good... Do not let anyone get suspicious of you. Just do what you can to learn the mystery behind this incident." Azure said to Twilight seriously through the phone. "Celestia can't be trusted. They have to talk eventually. Above of all, beware the randomness ones. They can easily guess what you're doing." 

"Don't worry, sir. I'm prepared for it." Twilight assured her mentor with a nod. 

"Good. Shadow Dragon and his team will assist you to gain their trust for you. But be careful." Azure warned Twilight to be careful if the mystery behind what happened was found out, no matter what the cost. 

"Yes sir. It will be done." Twilight said with a nod. 

Twilight hung up the phone and followed the others. The girl could only hope she could figure out the mystery while not losing her new friends. This could be tougher than one can imagine it to be.

------------------

Ben relaxes as he sat on a bench near the school. The boy has a good time today, he can't wait to continue on coming here, being near his mother and his aunt Luna, along with more of his friends.

Ben was preparing to get out a magazine when he looks up, seeing a familiar man at work: his brother in law Shadow Dragon. The boy smiles and waving, getting the undercover agent's attention. Ben knew the truth about him...and suspects that Shadow Dragon has a reason to enlist as a teacher here.

"Ben..." Shadow Dragon said seriously to his brother-in-law.

"Hey, Shadow Dragon. Good to see you here. I'm surprised that you came here to be a Discipline Teacher." Ben said, amused by Shadow Dragon's choice of career. "That's surprise. Does this mean that you're gonna get Iris back together with ya? I can't wait to see that."

Shadow Dragon sighed, shaking his head as he said, "I know... But I have my mission to complete."

"Mission? You mean-! Azure asked you to spy on my mother and investigate the mystery?! I thought we put it behind us."

"I'm afraid it can't be avoidable. Azure wants to protect the world."

"Becomes like Attinger?!" The boy scoffs. Shadow Dragon glared at Ben. He doesn't like it when Azure Phoenix is being compared to Attinger, the same paranoid jerk who wishes to wipe out the Transformers, every last one of them. "Sorry... I didn't mean it. I also believe in Azure. Whenever my dad got into trouble, he came and help me. He was like a second father to me. I just don't like him becoming Attinger."

Shadow Dragon sighed, "He's nothing like Attinger. Rest assure, Azure is finding a perfect evidence to show the President to remove him. Without it, they will trust Attinger than Azure."

The two doesn't trust Attinger, the one who has been ordering a team to wipe out the Autobots, behind the president's back. Ever since the incident in Chicago years ago, the robots from Cybertron are labeled fugitives to those who now feared and despise them. Even their human allies aren't safe, and no one knows if most of them are still alive.

Ben sighed in concern, "I guess so." He hopes Shadow Dragon is right about that.

"Good. Listen. Just be friends with them. And no matter what happens, be careful and avoid being under suspicion." Shadow Dragon said, giving out advice to Ben to be friends and maybe see if there's evidence of what happened at Canterlot High previously. "If you have any evidence, Azure will decide on it. I know it's wrong. But we need more evidence to confirm whether or not if the aliens can be trusted."

Ben sighed, "Alright. I'll try."

Ben is not sure if there are any aliens to be deal with...especially when the "last ones" are lookalikes of him, Twilight, Nyx, Spike and Phobos.

-------------

While the Dragon Strike Force is investigating secretly about what happened to Canterlot High before, and while Ben and Twilight, going secretly behind each other and their new friends' backs with their missions, another party is plotting as well. Two figures are meeting in secret, doing some plotting.

One of them is a dark gray man with black spiky hair. He wears a black suit, a silver tie, a red shirt, black pants and silver. He is known as Sombra, one of the student teachers at the school.

Sombra is one of the school's resident mad scientists; using a telekinesis-inducing helmet (which he can use to levitate cars, fire energy blasts and create force fields) and capsules of a special gas designed to create illusions of his victims' worst fears greatly magnified (he got the idea for the latter from a few Batman comics) to keep the school cowed into submission and cement his place as one of the school's top bullies.

His colleague is a woman with long dark cerulean hair with very dark gray skin. Her eyes are Moderate harlequin with vertical Dragon-like pupils within a normal round one. She wears a green coat with holes at the sleeves and dark blue pants with holes in some parts. The woman also wears long dark cerulean shoes. She is Chrysalis, another student teacher.

Chrysalis is the lead actor in the school's drama club and is a mistress of disguise with a fascination with insects and arachnids (even having a large number of trained ants, roaches and wasps). And so far, no one even knows the real reason as to what she and Sombra are up to.

"So do you think what they said is true?" Sombra ask Chrysalis while doing some updates to his helmet.

Chrysalis smirked, rubbing a hand through her hair while saying, "Only one way to find out. But to do that, we need to be good teachers."

"Other than that, we shall questioned every student. We'll find it and use it for our gain."

"And of course, our colleague need it too. He said that he wanted to test them for power and extinction. The Humans will bow and tremble in fear."

"Yes... We can't wait. But we need some henchmen to assist us." Sombra said with a sinister chuckle, concerned as to the henchmen part.

"Agreed..." Chrysalis said with a smirk, noting some recruits that can be used for the job at hand.

-----------

"Wow, Boris. Where did you get this equipment?" Boxco ask Boris in amazement. He and Dum are in another room with their boss who is wearing some sort of gauntlets that sparkles as if ready to zap anyone.

"Let's say, I got connections you don't know about." Boris said to his men with a smirk. "With Sunset on the straight and narrow, it's time for me to take over the job as Big Bully on Campus."

"But isn't this a school, not a campus?" Dum-Dum ask Boris confused.

"That's an expression, dummy! If anyone, student or teacher, gives me any trouble, they are in for a SHOCK of their life."

"Yeah, but I like the Red Devil look better." Boxco exclaims, recalling the Red Devil form that Boris once took when Sunset's plan was almost a success. "Now you report to shooting out electricity."

"I can also fly as well...and got a helmet and armor." Boris scoffs as he presses a button on the backpack that the villain is wearing, causing a helmet and armor to appear. "All shall bow down to Boris!"

Chapter 2: The New Students' Second Day


Twilight and her friends laugh in the present. That first day was the one that she and her friends would never forget, especially when Shadow Dragon and his pals came and be teachers, mostly to figure out what's going thanks to the events involving Sunset Shimmer.

"Hey, do you remember of how you girls told me that you knew the Dragon Strike Force personally?" Twilight ask her new friends with a smile.

"Oh yeah, sure. You wouldn't stop bugging us about it until we told ya everything." Rainbow admits to Twilight with a light chuckle, rolling her eyes a bit.

"Right, and you even told us how Shadow Dragon is Ben's brother-in-law since he married his sister Iris Crystal." Fluttershy said meekly while smiling. "Our other friend didn't know that before the incidents involving Fafnir and the Dazzlings."

"That was a surprise. I didn't know that all of you girls knew them so much like they've been in your life before." Ben said in observation, recalling what the girls told him, Twilight, Nyx and Starlight before.

"Yeah... Aqua was the best sister and coach I could ask for." Rainbow admits. Suddenly, much to the surprise of her friends, she sniffed before the girl cried a bit. "She's the best I could ask as 'Daring Do'..."

"Are you crying?" Fluttershy ask Rainbow in surprise. She barely see her friend cry like this.

"Yeah... Never seen you crying before." Scootaloo said in surprise. She hasn't seen her honorary big sister cry before.

"No! I'm not!" Rainbow insists. Of course, the tears from her own eyes kept giving her away.

Applejack scoffed, waving a hand while saying, "Come on, Rainbow Dash. Yew know yew cry because ya miss her so much since she left Canterlot High since graduation an' some incident."

Rainbow sighed, looks like the jig's up, "Fine... I did miss her. I thought she would chose that hothead guy over me. But as it turns out, she and him are actually spies. And they... care for me too." The girl turned to Applejack, giving a suspicious look. "I don't supposed that you haven't missed Saber?"

"Of course, Ah do. As Ah explained before, he was like an older brother 'ta me like Big Mac. Apple Bloom an' Ah've always visited him when we're on spare time."

Apple Bloom nodded, adding in, "Yeah. It was fun 'ta play wit' his cousins: Rogue, Sparkheart, Terrastrike, Kindy and Heavy. Those guys are fun 'ta play wit'." The little kid sighs, she misses those guys.

"Unfortunately, Saber wasn't there after graduation." Applejack said in concern, recalling what happened afterwards.

"Well... I was having fun with Uncle Terrorcreep. He was the best. He was like a father to me. I'm glad to have him be there for me. He's always buys something that I want, and he allows it. He wouldn't mind it, even for Angel." Fluttershy sighed, recalling her Uncle Terrorcreep. "I'm just upset to see him off to Europe for some work."

"Well, I'm just glad that he didn't make you his Dracula's Daughter." Rarity scoffs a bit. She doesn't approve of Terrorcreep like Fluttershy does. "I just hate his repulsive smell of his. It smells badly."

"Rarity! That wasn't nice!"

"Sorry, Fluttershy. I didn't mean it. I'm not comfort with some... Halloween stuff since your uncle told is about some Jiangshi Vampire."

"Jian-what?!" Rainbow ask a bit startled and freaked out.

"Jiangshi Vampire." Fluttershy said, correcting her freaked out friend about what Terrorcreep was talking about. "The hopping and possessed Vampire. It's very different than a European Vampire."

"Sounds the same... And you, Rarity? What's yours to Shorty? Got crush on him?"

"Yeah, come on, share." Nyx teases Rarity a bit.

"Come on, Rarity, you can tell us." Starlight said to Rarity with a light chuckle.

Rarity blushed as she spoke her thoughts, "Well, well, well... That was a long time ago when Shorty came to my father's business company for some works. And I was amazed by his technology. I wasn't very good at it though, but he was there for me to solve it. I admit one thing - I do have crush on him." The girl sighed, shaking her head. "Alas! He was being transferred to work for KSI."

Applejack huffed while remarking, "'De very same company 'dat tried 'ta kill' de Autobots, especially helping Megatron in becoming Galvatron? An' not 'ta mention, trying 'ta use 'de Seed to destroy 'de whole planet!" Word of what happened in the Autobots' previous battle last year in Hong Kong sure spread quick since that event!

"Let's not forget what those stupid Cemetery Wind did 'ta Sideswipe!" Apple Bloom exclaims, a bit upset. "That poor Autobot..."

"Applejack! Leave Shorty and his assistants out of it!" Rarity exclaims, upset by what Applejack is saying about poor Shorty and his assistants.

"Yeah! They didn't know it! They just got... messed up by that stupid CIS!" Sweetie snaps in agreement with her sister.

Rarity cleared her throat, adding, "That's CIA. And Sweetie Belle's right. It was their fault, not the KSI! And above all; Shorty, Tailtech and Icy have nothing to do with that event!"

"'Dat doesn't make any differences o' what they did fro' last year - almost getting everyone killed fro' Hong Kong till now!" Applejack exclaims a bit upset over the incident.

"Well... I can think you're getting more bad influence from Saber Dragoon! A very bad accusation for nothing!"

"Says 'ta a girl's best friend fer trying 'ta git everyone killed!"

Apple Bloom joins in the argument as the others are watching, getting a bit worried, "Yeah, at least ours got kindness an' never helped those stupid Cemetery Wind vermints!"

"Ours is generosity, not being a liar!" Sweetie snaps angrily at the Apple siblings. "I guess you've forgotten that, stupid Cowgirls!"

"What did yew call us, Spoiled Princess?!"

The Apple Sisters and the Fashion Sisters glared at each other for the moment. Twilight decided that it's best to intervene before this argument ends up ruining a friendship between both sides.

"Stop it! Stop involving your friends' involvement or history to this!" Twilight exclaims to the four who stop glaring, looking to the egghead newcomer. "This has nothing to do with it! Okay? That is the past. And this is now! The KSI are repairing and fixing the damages to what happened. No harm done."

The Apple Sisters and Fashion Sisters looked at each other, feeling ashamed for their petty argument. They all spoke at the same time, "Sorry..."

Nyx nodded as she spoke in agreement with her sister, "Yeah... Seriously, isn't this becoming your habit to argue? Coz it would be funny to see that happen for our pony counterparts." The girl can imagine Applejack doing arguments with Rarity right about now, with their siblings as well.

"Wait?! Did she learn from..." Rainbow asked surprised to hear that from Nyx. How the heck did Twilight's sister knew about that?

"Don't ask. I don't know what Lax and Pinkie taught her." Twilight remarks, rolling her eyes at the randomness thing. "I sure wish that could have been removed from a long time."

"Yeah! Thanks for taking sweet time for arguing." Pinkie exclaims happily bouncing up and down. "Anyway, for both Blazefist and Laxtinct, they are my best buddies I ever had. Thanks to Laxtinct's help, I got inspired and helped in making the best birthday parties everyone could have!"

"What about Blazefist? He's a cool guy, from what Shadow Dragon told me." Ben said, recalling Blazefist. "Wish I could be more like him."

"Yeah... He's one cool guy, but sure wish he stopped being a so bossy police guy. He really needs some chill. Ooh! Did I ever tell you girls about Aquastroke and Blazefist getting married?! That is so romantic. Feeling like I want to start a party!"

Rainbow sighed, rolling her eyes as she said, "Yes, you did. You said that about... 200 times. Seriously. Stop repeating it." The pink girl has been telling her friends about that so many times, it's not funny. The girl then squealed happily. "Oh my GOSH! I can't wait for that to happen!" The girls glanced at her causing Rainbow to blush and cleared her throat. "Just want to wish Aqua and Blaze a happy marriage. That's all."

"Speaking of friends, why didn't you tell us about them being military agents? And not to mention, you knew all of them well." Sunset said to Twilight, Ben, Nyx, and Starlight in concern.

"Yeah... What's the big deal of keeping that secret?" Flash ask his friends in concern.

Twilight sighed as she spoke up, "I am Azure's Prize Pupil. And as part of Military Intelligence, I'm not supposed to reveal anything or everything to anyone. It is classified information."

"Wow, that's shocking." Pinkie gasps a bit in amazement.

"Yeah, I can see why you want to keep that a secret." Scootaloo remarks as she works on her scooter.

Ben chuckled a bit as everyone turned to him, "Remember the very day we got in, we've been 'taught' by Dragon Strike Force.""

"Oh yeah, we've been taught big time by those guys." Rainbow remarks, joking a bit.

"Yew got it, sugar cube. We've never forgot that day fer a moment." Applejack said, making the others nod with her.

"Yeah... Who wouldn't forget?" Flash ask, sighing as he continues stinging his guitar a bit.

"Let's not forget of what happen to Boris when he mess with Burnblast-Sensei." Nyx said with a smirk, recalling that day that Boris the Animal will never forget, even if he tried to.

"Oh yeah...I can remember it...like it was a flashback!" Pinkie exclaims happily as the gang remembers the past as well...

------------------

It was the first day for the new students as they hang out, deciding on some activities to talk to their new friends about, especially involving the matter with Sunset Shimmer. They met up with their friends as the latter helped them to get used to the school. 

Just then, the group saw a couple of girls bullying Sunset, mocking and teasing her. Even when she claims to be reformed, not everyone believes that she is.

"Well, well, looks who's being bullied for once, monster." One of the girls sneers at Sunset who is doing her best to ignore them.

"Why bother pretending? Everyone knows you are a jerk, always a jerk." The second girl remarks with a laugh, making Sunset cry.

"Look! Even her tears are soooooo fake!" The third girl taunts Sunset cruelly as well. Twilight frowns a bit. The poor girl has been through enough.

Twilight came over to the girls, shouting angrily, "How dare you speak to her that way!" The mean girls look surprised as they glare at her. "You three are cowards! Picking on an innocent girl like that!"

"She isn't..."

"Just leave, leave Sunset now or I will get Shadow Dragon out here!"

The girls look nervous. They know of Shadow Dragon and his ways of "disciplining" the bad students. The trio quickly took their leave, allowing Sunset to sigh and look guilty. Didn't she use to act like a jerk like that?

"Can't believe this." Ben said, groaning as he shakes his head.

"Well, Ben... Get used to the New School." Flash said seriously as he pats Ben on the back. "Coz it's gonna be a bumpy ride."

Ben sighed, responding, "Don't tell me twice, Flash; been there, done that. It's not a pretty one too."

----------------

The students walk through the halls, preparing for a new day at school. As the Main Five and their new friends begin their next day, putting their stuff away in their lockers, a voice spoke through the P.A.

"Good Morning, students. And welcome back to Canterlot High." Terrorcreep's voice said through the P.A. "For furthermore security and safety rules, come to me and I shall reveal everything. And above all, make sure that you follow the rules of Canterlot High. Or there will be some consequences. And now... Those who do not return to the class in time will be honored to taste the early detention class from Mr. Simmons. You have 10 minutes to get to the class."

Ben groaned as he recognizes who it is, "Let me guess... Terrorcreep?"

"Yes, that is indeed him." Rarity said, rolling her eyes a bit.

"Fluttershy's uncle or daddy - if that's what she wants to call him." Rainbow remarks, elbowing Fluttershy while making her nod timidly a bit. "That guy is a freaking Vampire Rule Freak. He's always caught me when I tried to sneak out from Science Class."

Rarity groaned as she comments, "At least be appreciate with Mr. Shorty's treatment than that vampire's. No offense, Fluttershy."

"None taken." Fluttershy said. She knew of Rarity's distaste towards him but knew she doesn't always meant anything by it.

"To be honest, Fluttershy, I didn't know you had an uncle." Sunset said. She is amazed that Fluttershy never brought up her uncle until now.

"Terrorcreep is my adopted uncle. I'd prefer to call him daddy because he treated me like his daughter. He's like a father to me. And I'm happy to have him."

"Well... If he was at your age, you and him would have been a couple by now. That would be great to hear that." Pinkie said being random and silly per usual.

Rainbow chuckles, rolling her eyes while remarking, "Random... Be glad that he didn't suck her blood for daily routine."

"I just hope he doesn't kill me for... for bullying you before." Sunset said, gulping nervously. If Terrorcreep finds out that she bullied Fluttershy long ago, the former villainess fears of what he must do.

"It's okay. I've talked to him about the past. I told him you've change for the better. I promise he won't kill you." Fluttershy assures Sunset, patting her on the back gently.

"Hopefully, he doesn't try to get my blood again." Ben remarks, shuddering a bit while rubbing the back of his neck.

"Say what?" Flash ask Ben startled. Did he heard right?

"Nothing!"

"To Miss Fluttershy Jia - report to Security Room for a pickup." Terrorcreep said through the P.A. must to the surprise of Fluttershy's friends.

"Again? Seriously? Is he still treating you like a baby?" Rainbow scoffs in disbelief. All these years and Fluttershy is still treated like baby? Unbelievable! "Come on, you're a teenager now!"

Fluttershy sighed, "I don't mind it. After all, he hasn't been there for me since last year. I can't blame him for not spending time with me. I'd better go."

"Right, see you later." Starlight said to Twilight as he and his Siblings heads off to their classes.

"At least try to act mature...for once." Rainbow said to Fluttershy as she and most of the others right off.

"Say hello to your uncle for me! Squee!" Pinkie giggles as she bounces off to...who knows where.

Fluttershy smiles as she heads to the Security Room. Hopefully her adopted uncle got something good for her today.

As Fluttershy enters the room, she smiles while speaking up, "I'm here for my lunch pickup."

Terrorcreep dressed in his white Security Uniform spoke to Fluttershy in concern, "I'm not here to give you lunch. Just want to see if you're fine or okay."

"I'm okay, daddy. If that's okay, Uncle Terror."

Terrorcreep sighed at this, "Fluttershy, I told you before. You can call me daddy if you want. You and I are family. Listen, I just want you to be careful on the class, especially with Sunset and Boris. I don't trust them."

"Yes, daddy. But Sunset is okay, she can be trusted." Fluttershy said to Terrorcreep calmly. Despite what must folks think, Sunset has reformed; hopefully in time, everyone, besides the Main Five, the CMC, Hoboken Joe, Flash, as well as Celestia and Luna, will trust her again and forgive the former villain for her actions. "Please believe in me. I'm not a little girl. If it's okay for you to trust me."

Terrorcreep sighed, giving in, "Okay, Fluttershy. Just want to make sure. And one more thing." Terrorcreep kissed on Fluttershy's forehead calmly. "Take care."

Fluttershy blushed, saying happily to her adopted uncle, "Okay, thank you, daddy." It's good to know that Terrorcreep can at least try to accept Sunset for her sake.

As Fluttershy left the security room, Terrorcreep sighed, speaking quietly to himself, "I'm sorry, my dear. I have to know what's going on here..."

It may not be long before any evidence of what happened can be found.

-------------

Twilight, her friends and some students gathered at the gym, preparing for their next class. Most of the students are excited, though some are glaring at Sunset...who is pretending that she doesn't exist to them.

"Oh yeah! Welcome to my world!" Rainbow laughs as she gave a V for Victory to everyone. "The best period to play with. Nothing can stand in my way coz I rule it!"

"Oh! Why now?! Can't I be with Shorty?! Why now?!" Rarity groans a bit, not believing this.

"So what's going on with that?" Twilight asked her friends in concern.

"And what sport are we doing in this class?" Ben asked the others curiously. "I am not prepared for this."

"Oh yer're gonna love 'is one." Applejack said with a smirk on her face. "An' Ah hope yer're prepared fer de worst, Twilight; 'Dis one is gonna be one big pain 'ta our butts."

A whistle is heard sounding loudly yet wildly as all of students stopped and stood in each line of their own. Their teacher is here. Aquastroke, dressed in her sleeveless cyan shirt with navy pants, brown sport boots and had a black jacket around her waist, whistled wildly as she and Blazefist, dressed in his black and red Soccer Shirt and black shorts with black sport shoes, came into the gym.

"They're here! The Athlete Couple is in the house!" Pinkie exclaims, bouncing up and down excitedly. "Didn't I tell you all that Aqua and Blaze are in love?"

"Pinkie, you've already said that for nearly... 100 times..." Fluttershy said, reminding Pinkie that she kept telling her friends that info so many times before.

"It's her! She's here." Rainbow squealed happily. "I can't believe she's here! The Awesome Aqua's in the house!"

"Yeah, baby! The Crazy Coach is in the house!" One athlete cheers on wildly.

"Yeah, man! Can't wait to start one." Another athlete remarks in agreement with his fellow student.

"I like Blazefist. He's so cute and handsome." Naomi said with a sigh. "Wish I had a boyfriend like hers."

"You and Me both." An athlete girl said to Naomi with a smirk. Most of the girls at Canterlot High definitely like Blazefist.

"Ah... Did I miss something?" Twilight ask her friends confused. Why are the students acting crazy towards Aquastroke and Blazefist like that?

"Aqua is Rainbow Dash's Personal Coach an' a sister too. An' trust me, Rainbow Dash gone crazy fer 'dat coach." Applejack explains to Twilight with a light chuckle. Rainbow sure goes crazy big time when those two are around. "Both o' them is 'de best team fer any sports. One wrong insult, Rainbow could gone a Berserker."

"Yeah... I wouldn't want to mess with her." Ben said with a shudder. Last thing he wants is to get on the bad side of someone like Aquastroke.

"Okay, everyone! Glad to see everyone up and running! Coz today is gonna be great!" Aqua calls out to the students in determination. They wait as the teacher continues, "And I hope everyone is ready for this kind of action." She then took a red dodge ball out, spinning it on one finger. "Who's ready for Dodgeball?!"

The students cheered wildly and happily. Rainbow cheers on, "Yeah, awesome!"

"Oh boy, this is going to be great." Pinkie exclaims squealing.

"All right, bring it, sugar cube!" Applejack calls out to Aquastroke, ready for Dodgeball.

Of course, Fluttershy, Rarity and Twilight aren't as keen of the sport like their 3 pals are. They hate Dodgeball, mostly because it is a brutal sport, and Twilight isn't good at some sports.

"Glad to see anyone like you ready for the breakfast. Coz I don't want to hear some complaints and yelping noises from any of you." Blazefist said to the students with a chuckle. If he hears any complaints or yelping noises from anyone, the teacher is going to lose it.

"Without any complaints, we get started now. Split into two teams - Awesomeness versus Lamos. My favorite and awesome pupil: Rainbow takes the lead for Awesomeness! And Boris take the Lamos!" Aqua said, picking the captains for the teams. "Start your picks!"

"YES! Aqua, I so owe you for that!" Rainbow laughs eagerly, rubbing her hands in determination. She can't wait.

Rarity raise her hand, looking worried as she spoke to Blazefist, "Excuse me, sir. I was wondering if we should go through some... safety guide limits about it."

Fluttershy nodded while admitting, "Yes. I wish to withdraw."

Blazefist sighed, rolling his eyes as he reminds the two girls of what he said earlier, "Rarity and Fluttershy, what did I just say about complaints?"

"But we didn't-!" Rarity begins to protest but Aqua interrupts her.

"Since you insisted so badly, I'll give you a hint of safety guide limits, Dramity and Little Shy. Get dodge or get whacked!" Aqua snaps to the two girls, making them yelp in alarm. "DODGEBALL TIME!"

"You have to ask..." Twilight groans as she prepares to get into whatever team of what captain choose her.

Rarity muttered in annoyance, "I hate that coach!" Why must she put up with that?

After the teams have been chosen, Aqua blew the whistle and things go nuts with both sides throwing dodge balls at one another like mad, Fluttershy ducks nervously. Rainbow chuckles as she hits one kid that Fluttershy hid behind.

"Eeep!" Fluttershy yelps as she rushed to hide behind another kid who also got hit. "Oh my!"

Applejack and Pinkie move, dodging the dodge balls, though Sunset, who isn't even playing or participating in this class, got hit by a bunch of them in the stands. The girl screams in annoyance and pain, "Now I know you all are doing that on purpose!"

"Trixie doesn't care!" Trixie exclaims to Sunset in amusement.

Twilight yelps as she quickly dodges a dodge ball quickly. Caramel manages to knock three away from himself, laughing...only for them to hit the walls and roof before one each hit him on the head, knocking Caramel right out of the game.

Boris chuckled, "I may not be on the Awesome Team, but I can still kick those butts, especially that brat. It's payback time for getting the girl away from me!"

"Boss, you do realize that isn't the same one." Boxco said, reminding his boss that Twilight isn't the Equestrian one.

"Yeah. So, you wanted her?" Dum-Dum ask his boss confused.

"That's what I'm here for, ladies." Boris remarks to his bosses with a cruel smirk. He won't rest until either Twilight is his, no matter what!

Boris laughs cruelly as he and his boys grab the dodge balls, throwing them at Rarity and Fluttershy, causing them to scream as they got hit like mad. That really hurts...especially since Fluttershy is on Boris's team!

It took a few minutes or so, but Dodgeball is finally over. Aqua whistled her whistle, calling out, "Not bad. Good job, that's some serious improvement." The teacher sighed, giving a look of disapproval to Rarity and Fluttershy. "I'm still expecting some guts, Dramity and Little Shy."

"Easy, Aqua. They did their best." Blazefist said, calming his love down. "Alright, get some shower. And Boris, to the Discipline Room! You've got some serious attitude problems again!"

"Yo, Rainbow Dash - That's some awesome moves you've make! Proud of you, girl. You're so in for the Equestria Games!"

Rainbow squealed, jumping up and down while exclaiming, "Oh yeah! Thank you!"

"Wow...And I thought I was a crazy fan." Scootaloo said in amazement at how her idol is acting towards Aqua. Then again, she knew this already.

"Guess yew an' Rainbow Dash share 'de common-like." Apple Bloom remarks, giving a jokingly grin towards her friend.

"Fan Crazy for the awesome girls." Sweetie giggles, doing her best not to fall to the floor laughing.

"Now that's funny!" Nyx laughs, agreeing with her friends. Seeing Scootaloo acting like a fan girl is sure funny!

"Hey!" Scootaloo exclaims, not impressed with the comments towards her. 

So she acts like a fan girl. It's nothing for Scootaloo to be ashamed about, right?

------------------

Later, the gang was entering science class after finishing gym class was over.

Shorty, dressed in his white lab coat, greeted the students, "Greetings, everyone. I'm glad to see that everyone is here. And hopefully, Rainbow Dash won't try to be tardy for this one. Because if she did, she won't have a chance to take Physical Education again."

Rainbow huffed, "Lame..." Everyone had to be a spoilsport. 

"Rainbow Dash, your manners, please!" Rarity scolded Rainbow for her lack of matters, as usual. "He's a friend of mine." 

"Didn't know you and him had a connection." Twilight said, arching an eyebrow at this. 

"Well... Shorty is my dad's personal assistant. And he's the best guy I could ask for. He's way better than that stupid Blueblood." Rarity said, looking a bit disgusted at the reminder of the principal's nephew and Ben's horrible cousin. "But he left for KSI as a scientist until he came to Canterlot as a Science Teacher. I really like and admire him so much. He may be a nerd, but he's a handsome scientist."

Ben couldn't help by chuckle at this. He nudged Flash while saying, "I didn't know that Rarity had a crush on Shorty."

"Yeah, me too." Flash remarked, amused by this.

"Wow... And I thought my dog had gone crazy for another dog he likes." Twilight said in amazement. 

Shorty sighed, overhearing the conversion. Why is he not surprised? The teacher then cleared his throat to get everyone’s attention, "Now... without any further ado, we should proceed for an experiment. Let's start with Chemical Reaction Energy. And no to any athletes, we're not going to test some dangerous mixing chemicals. Each team must have two scientists."

Shorty gave a look to Rainbow, who frowned while demanding, "Why does he keep looking at me?!" She hated it when he does that. Very disturbing! 

"You did make Rarity sick in making up a story about going into...a human body." Fluttershy said meekly. Rainbow did do something like that one time.

"It was just a joke!" Rainbow protested to Fluttershy in annoyance. Why must folks get in her face about that?! 

Shorty spoke up, "Now, can someone tell me what the safety measures are, involving kinetic energy experiments?" Twilight raised a hand, getting his attention. "Yes, Twilight?"

"Is it all right if I choose a lab partner?" Twilight asked Shorty with a smile. "You know, just so I can get a closer experience with this?"

"Yes, you can." Shorty said with a smile.

"Good. Rarity, you're with me." Twilight said to Rarity with a smile.

The kids picked their own partners as Shorty give out the instructions as to what to do. Fluttershy was paired with Applejack, Flash with Ben, Rainbow with Pinkie, and so on and so forth.

"Remember to follow my instructions. I don't want some accidents, and I especially don't want to have some troublemaking students to mess things up." Shorty explained sternly to everyone. 

As everyone was working on their chemistry, Shorty kept his eyes sharp on them in making sure that they don't make a mess on their chemistry projects. 

Fluttershy was scared as she struggled in lifting a heavy crimson flask up. Applejack helped her up as they both poured it into a greenish big flask. POOF! The greenish color of flask remained stable for the moment. They both smiled. That was good. 

Flash smirked as he tried to pour the black colors of test tube on the greenish test tube. Ben stopped him as he explained about using the right chemical. Flash smiled as he and Ben worked carefully on putting the right chemical mixture. So far, so good. 

As Rainbow Dash tried to understand what Shorty had instructed, she yawned as she struggle to keep her eyes up. Pinkie randomly poured all kinds of chemical into the flask before firing the burner up in burning the flask. BOOM! Both of them were covered with burnt marks. Ouch! 

Shorty groaned in annoyance. Pinkie smiled innocently while Rainbow glared at her. 

"Rarity, are you sure you can handle it? Chemistry is the delicate masterpiece of science." Twilight said to Rarity in concern. 

Rarity smiled as she assured Twilight, "I certainly can." 

"Are you sure? You were keen on fashion than science as I remembered." Twilight said, recalling what Rarity prefers to do most of all. 

Rarity smiled, saying to Twilight, "Twilight, I assure you of one thing; I can handle it well. I've done this before in my life before you came here." Hearing that surprised the egghead. She'd never would expected that. 

Twilight hummed, "Okay, then. Let's get started." 

Twilight and Rarity carefully followed Shorty's instruction as they poured one-by-one of the chemical tubes and flasks into the greenish flask for a few moments. As the green flask shook hard for a moment, it popped as the flask revealed the colorful liquid within the flask itself. They both smiled in success. 

"Well done, Rarity and Twilight. I expect no less from you. I wish I could say from both Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie." Shorty said, giving a glare at two certain students. 

"Thanks a lot, Pinkie." Rainbow remarked bitterly to Pinkie. Shorty was already calling them out as failures for this. 

"Can't help it. I did what Maud told me. Pour everything into it. And I did." Pinkie admitted to Twilight, squeaking a bit. 

"I didn't know you were good at science.” Twilight said to Rarity in amazement. 

"Well... When you have a personal tutor, you get admired and interested on him." Rarity admitted. She then cleared a throat as if correcting herself, "Science." 

"I bet she wanted to impress that egghead doctor." Rainbow remarked, rolling her eyes as if suspecting what Rarity was really after here. 

"Well... It did happen before in Power Master's Universe. She and him got together." Pinkie said to Rainbow, much to her bewilderment. "It even happened with Twilight and Shadow Dragon."

"I wish you could get experimented on why you're so random." Rainbow said to Pinkie, shaking her head in disbelief.

"Boring! Try me! Now this is how it works!" Boris boasted wickedly. 

Boris and his gang randomly poured all the chemical tubes and flask into a greenish flask. They turned the burner on to begin the progress of burning the flask. Its color turned into dark black colors as it shook very hard. And as if it was expected, the flask exploded. Once all is clear, the science lab was a mess. Everyone was covered by black marks. 

"Is he always like that?" Ben ask the others in bewilderment, preferring to Boris’s habit. 

"Unfortunately." The girls remarked dryly to Boris.

"And with Sunset now a good guy, Boris is just a plain bully." Flash admitted to his friends, shaking his head in annoyance.

"You know... I've seen him somewhere. Can't put it how." Twilight said in concern. She had a feeling that the girl had seen Boris somewhere before. 

"Hopefully, he doesn't try to pull that again." Ben said with a frown. 

Shorty gave an anger glare at Boris, snapping, “"Boris! To the Disciplinary OFFICE!” 

---------------------

With that incident over, the gang tends their next class: Kendo. Burnblast and Lightningblade are there, dressed in Kendo Robes/Uniforms. Everyone, dressed in their Kendo Uniforms with their helmets on the right, was sitting down on the floor without any shoes on. 

“Welcome to Heck, kiddies.” Burnblast said to the kids with a devilish smile, freaking most of the students out.  

“What Burnblast-Sensei meant was 'Welcome to Kendo Class'.” Lightningblade said, correcting the students to explain what Burnblat meant otherwise. 

“LB, there aren't kids.” Burnblast snaps to Lightningblade in irritation. “Okay, rookies. Hope you're ready for the next lesson. Coz this one is gonna be your pain of your butts if you're so not ready!” 

“Today, we'll train you the ways of Kendo from our old home: Japan. We expect no disobedience or aggressive to each other. We shall begin the lesson before we proceed to practice.” Lightningblade said, giving out strict instructions to the students.

"Well, this oughta be interesting." Sunset sighed a bit. She hasn't done Kendo before, but this was a first for her, since the principal enroll her in this class.

"They maybe 20% cool, but nothing beats my coach." Rainbow bragged to her friends. 

"Be careful o' what yew just said, Dash. Ah heard those two are good at Kendo an' some sword fighting." Applejack said, giving out a word of warning to Rainbow to watch what she said. 

"Trust me, A.J. They're no joke." Ben said seriously to Applejack in agreement. He knew those two and their ways of fighting weren't anything to laugh at. 

"I'm taking Ben's word for it." Nyx remarked with a nod.

During the next few minutes or so, the students practiced with their Kendo, waving sticks or swords at each other, doing their best not to harm one another. In Kendo, you have to do self defense, not to make fights.

While some of the students were doing better, sometimes Fluttershy is having trouble. Mainly because she is not used to sword play.

"Not bad, rookies. But Shy Girl, you seriously need to work on that. I'm not expecting some weakling in my class." Burnblast said to Fluttershy, making her whimper meekly at those words. 

"Do not be discouraged by those words." Lightningblast said, patting Fluttershy in assuring. "Use them as the gift of motivation. With that, you will keep on practicing until you mastered courage. We wish you well." 

---------------------

It's lunchtime at Canterlot High. Students head to certain tables, mingling and talking, eating while enjoying themselves. Icy and Tailtech joined the CMC as they sat with the Main Five and friends.

"Wow, what a day so far, huh, Rainbow?" Scootaloo asked Rainbow with a smile.

"Well, yes...I did have a few...problems with some classes." Fluttershy admitted to her friends meekly.

"It’s okay, Fluttershy. I'm sure you will do better at some of them." Tailtech said to Fluttershy with a smile.

"Right. I mean, not everyone gets Kendo right the first time." Icy admitted to Fluttershy. After all, one can't do Kendo properly the right time. It takes time.

"Ugh, that Shorty is a pain in the butt." Rainbow groaned a bit. "I nearly survive his class."

"Well, if you have been studying or paying more attention, you wouldn't be having those kind of trouble." Rarity remarked to her friend with a scoff.

"I'm just glad I survived Kendo." Sunset said, drinking some juice while sighing. "Some of my opponents look like they want to kill me!"

"Don't worry about it fer now, sugah cube." Applejack said to Sunset. "Not everyone forgot what happened."

"Out of curiosity, what did happened?" Twilight asked her friends curiously, remembering her friends. The ones who knew kept quiet, looking worried. Although the newcomers saw the “Helping Twilight Win the Crown” video as well as the humiliating one of Equestrian Twilight and the Main Five and their pals did promise to explain about it later, the concerns over the Autobot-Decepticon thing forced everyone at Canterlot High, well mostly anyway, to keep quiet.

"Right, actually, why was everyone upset at Sunset?" Ben asked, curious as well. "Did something happen here?"

"Let's just say it's a prank that gone wrong." Rainbow said quickly, giving out a nervous look.

"Right, I mean, something happened, the kids took it waaaaaay out of proportion." Pinkie said in agreement while looking nervous as well. The girls can't let their new friends know what happened.

"And are you certain?" Twilight asked, making Starlight look at her oddly.

"Why the sudden interest, Twilight?" Starlight asked Twilight curiously.

"Just curious." Twilight admitted to her brother. She couldn't give him the true reason, though.

"Listen, it was just a prank, nothing to worry about." Sunset said to Twilight. The girl just wanted that chapter of her former life to be closed, never to be opened again. "Please. Let's change the discussion."

Twilight and Ben wanted to press further but they decided for their friends' sake as to not press it further for now. They decided to wait for the time being.

Laxtinct, dressed in his janitor suits, came out and found that the floor was covered with footprints, and near the table where Twilight and her friends are sitting at. Needless to say, he isn't happy with this at all.

"Are you kidding me?! Darn it! I thought I told you kids not to mess up with the floors!" Laxtinct scowls angrily as he got to work on cleaning up the footprints. "I swear if my brother were here, he's gonna kick your butts for making the mess!"

"Wow, calm down." Starlight calls out to Laxtinct in concern. "Just a little mess."

"Right, Hobo Joe doesn't give us a hard time when that happened, why should you?" Sunset ask Laxtinct in agreement.

"I got to agree though. One shouldn't leave messes." Rarity remarks, looking a bit annoyed by the footprints too.

"Out of curiosity: who's Laxtinct's talking about?" Scootaloo ask the others puzzled by this.

"Guys... Do I remind you again?" Pinkie ask her friends, disbelief that her friends would forget so easily. "That buddy of mine Laxtinct's older brother is Blazefist."

"What, really?" Fluttershy ask, ducking down in her chair a bit.

"Uh oh." Most of the CMC girls said in worry, feeling a bit worried.

"Aw man! If Blazefist found out about this, Aqua's gonna get screwed!" Rainbow exclaims, slapping her head as she is worried that Blazefist would be upset by this.

"Yeah, no kidding! No thanks to you!" Laxtinct snaps to the girls' group as if they are responsible for the mess that he has to clean up now. The boy is sick of it!

"Sorry about that, I don't think it's our fault." Twilight apologizes to Laxtinct, not wanting him to get upset further. "Even if we did make that mess, we're still sorry."

"Right, sorry about 'dat." Applejack remarks, giving a sheepish chuckle to Laxtinct.

"Come on, don't be mad! Be glad!" Pinkie exclaims happily, blowing a steamer in her mouth while throwing confetti into the air.

"No worries. I wouldn't be angry now if it weren't for pinky girl's special party gift to me. I'll excuse you for now..." Laxtinct said with a shrug as he cleans up the confetti mess too. Those kids are so glad that Pinkie is their pal.

"How'd you do that, Pinkie?" Twilight ask Pinkie, pondering what Laxtinct meant by the last part.

"Simple - Laxtinct asked me every year of his birthday to make a best and coolest birthday party for him. Whenever he gets a best one, he would forgive and forget the problem. After all, he and I are best buddies." Pinkie explains happily while giving out a big squee. "Did I ever tell you about how I met Lax and Blaze?"

Rainbow roll her eyes at this and remarks dryly to Twilight, "Just say yes. It's a long story..."

As Laxtinct was preparing to take his leave, Hoboken Joe stops him, pointing to some spots on the floor that he mess while scowling, "Laxtinct! Did you forget to clean that mess?!"

"Yes, I forgot..." Laxtinct groans to the old janitor in chagrin.

"Get it done now!"

Laxtinct scowls as he goes back to cleaning duties once more. If it weren't for his mission, Blazefist's brother would've been out of here a long time ago.

------------------

It is now time for Bakery Class. Saber, dressed in his greenish shirt with brown pants, was dressed in his apron, along with Granny Smith stood before the students.

"Is he wearing an apron?" Lyra ask Sweetie Drops in amazement while chuckling.

"Could be." Sweetie Drops remarks, shrugging while giggling a bit. "I just chose not to bother asking."

"Cute!" Derpy exclaims, laughing happily as she gets ready to make some muffins in this class.

Rainbow could help but laugh a bit at the apron that a certain cowgirl is dressed just like Saber. Applejack glares at her friend while asking, "Ah supposed 'dat Ah dressed like 'dis, one would make yew laughing?"

"You bet." Rainbow remarks as she calms down from her laughing.

"Sorry about that, Applejack. I guess Saber is your special friend." Ben apologizes to Applejack sheepishly.

"More than a friend, he's like a brother to me. An' trust me on 'dis, he and I go way back when I was a kid. He taught me everything. Ah'd appreciate it very much." Applejack explains her connection to Saber of when he and her were once kids.

Saber notices some of the other students chuckling as well. He spoke, "Well... students. If you think what I'm dressing is funny, wait till your turn to try one. Because all of you are gonna dressed in one. We're gonna start to cook."

Granny Smith chuckled, "He's right about that. Now I know that some of you didn't want to cook because rich folks got chefs to cook or some kids want to buy some foods from other places. Well, let me tell you something, kids. If you don't learn to cook, you don't get to eat. So, you'd better listen well to Saber, or you'd be in deep trouble."

"Alright, then. Let's start with the bakery. I hope you're ready for it."

The kids forcingly got to work, wearing aprons and cooking/bake the cakes, sweets, cookies, etc. Derpy was doing great with her muffins. Pinkie, basically she can get her hands on. Some of the students' food either blew up in their faces or are wasted.

For the students who did get their treats done properly, Saber and Granny Smith taste them. The old woman smiles as she spoke, "Well done. Baking is an easy task. Well, I was expecting some of ya to do a better cook."

"Yes... Rainbow Dash, you really need to work on your cook." Saber remarks, cringing at the bad cake that she tasted from Rainbow.

Rainbow groans and slaps herself. To her, it isn't easy to cook...EVER!

---------------

It was the end of the day for the kids. As the students leave to go home for the day, Twilight commented happily to be here. Of course, there is one other thing and that she didn't get much information than the girls gave her about what happened at the last Fall Formal at all.

Twilight sighed, "I didn't get anything. If I ask too much, they will get suspicious. Just glad Pinkie didn't suspect a thing. Well, I'd better report back to Azure."

Ben sighed in worry, "Shadow Dragon is so gonna kill me."

"Guys?" Nyx ask puzzled upon hearing what her sister and her boyfriend just said.

"It's nothing." Twilight and Ben said quickly as they rush off, leaving the girl's siblings to look at them suspiciously.

"Weirdo..." Starlight remarks dryly while shaking his head. Even Nyx is suspecting that Twilight and Ben are hiding something.

Inside the school, Shadow Dragon and his friends were in discussion at the security room. Blazefist groans while shaking his head, "It looks like Twilight and Ben didn't get any info."

"Don't worry, everyone. They'll get it next time. I receive the new order from Secretary Azure Phoenix. It has something to do with some... unexpected teachers' recruitment." Shadow Dragon said, adding that Azure Phoenix has given him some new orders involving some new teachers that got hired without explanation.

"Why do I get the feeling that things are about to get worse?" Burnblast ask, slapping his head in disbelief.

--------

"I am ticked." Boris said sternly in a room as Boxco and Dum-Dum watches on. "That idiot Shorty send me to Shadow Dragon's office. My butt is feeling sore from the whacking he gave me!"

"Tell me about it." Boxco remarks with a groan, feeling his behind. Both he and Dum-Dum got send to Shadow Dragon’s office as well. "Well, whatcha gotta do, huh?"

"Well, I know one thing: it's time we get enough with the delaying."

"Indeed, no more delaying." Sombra said as he and Chrysalis came into the room, much to the notice of the three bullies. "Sorry, boys, couldn't resist butting in."

"What do you two want?" Boris ask, groaning to see Sombra and Chrysalis.

"We know you want Twilight...either one...and wish to give in our little help." Chrysalis said, giving some sort of hiss as she sat on a table. "I believe Sombra and I can help."

"Uh, last time we got help, we got into trouble." Dum-Dum explains to Chrysalis in worry.

"Right, and Sunset got pals, we're still the threesome." Boxco remarks, nodding in agreement.

"Tomorrow is the next day of school for the new kids...Chrysalis and I can help arrange so you can take Ben out of the picture...for good!" Sombra explains, giving out an evil smile to the three bullies.

Boris pauses, this could be his chance to put his new equipment to good use! The bully said with an evil grin, "You got my attention..."

Chapter 3: Wheelie Cometh!


The secretary was on an image on a monitor as Twilight explained to Azure Phoenix as to what she had found. So far, the girl didn't seem to find anything that could help explain what had happened at the Fall Formal. Everyone at Cantelot High are tight-lipped.

Azure hummed, "I see... The only way to get more info about this incident is to earn their trust."

"I understand. But it may take some time to get the info, sir." Twilight said in concern, the girl need more time to get the info from her new friends.

"Do what you have to, Twilight. We must know what has happen to Canterlot High. It's for the safety of the world..."

"Yes sir."

Azure notes the worried look on his student's face. Something's up. The man spoke in concern, "Something troubling you?"

Twilight sighs as she answers, "Sir... If I did find some evidence, what will you do? Will you go to war?" The girl is worried that Azure may go to war, believing that her doppelganger and her pals could be going to invade their world.

"No... But I'll decide on how it goes. Why?"

"I saw Sunset's face. And it wasn't good. She looks regret and pain of what she had done before. She feels sorry for it. I think she wants to do the right thing..."

Azure hummed thoughtfully, then he spoke, "I'll decide how it goes. But be careful. I can't lose you, not after what had happen to Sunset. Our Sunset Shimmer."

"Yes, sir. I understand..." Twillight said with a slow nod. No one knew what happened to the Sunset Shimmer of this world. Some think that her doppelganger may have killed her but no one truly knows yet.

"Good, find out more about the school's incident. And be careful as well. Don't rouse their suspicions too much."

Twilight sighed, "Understood...."

Twilight ends the communications, sighing while putting a hand to her face. She wishes that the girl would tell her new friends as to why she wanted to find out, but Azure insisted on keeping it a secret. What's the point in having friends...if you must keep secrets?

Unknown to Twilight, however, Nyx is hiding behind the door, having listened in the conversation. The girl looks stunned as she ask quietly, "Twiley... how could you..."

-----------

"I don't know if I can do this. Stalking on enemy is one thing but friends... I just can't..." Ben said seriously on his monitor phone to his brother in law Shadow Dragon. The boy hates lying to Twilight and the others as to what he's doing truly.

"I know. But we have a mission to perform. If they don't tell us, then they're hiding something from us." Shadow Dragon said seriously to Ben. If the Main Five and their friends are hiding something, then it must come out no matter what.

"Still... I feel guilty to do it. When I looked at that 'Sunset', I feel sorry for her. It's like she never meant to do it."

"Even so... We still need to know what was going on. It's wrong but it's for everyone's protection. I promise you that we won't hurt anyone else. We just want some answers."

"Fine... Don't make me regret it." Ben said, whimpering a bit in sadness. He hates doing undercover work on friends, especially in his mother's school! How would Celestia feel if she finds out what her son is doing?

"Come on. Don't tell me you're whimpering again." Shadow Dragon snaps to Ben in frustration. He hates it when his brother-in-law does that, reminds him of the time when Ben was a shy one.

"As if! I'll do it."

"Just be careful..."

------------

It was the next day at school. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo are looking over some papers as they are now putting Nyx into the Cutie Mark Crusaders. The girl wanted to tell them of what Twilight is doing...although she wonders if they will be upset over the fact that her sister is spying on everyone for Azure Phoenix.

"Well, it's done." Apple Bloom said, squeezing as she put the papers away. "Welcome 'ta 'de Cutie Mark Crusaders, Nyx."

"Yeah, for real." Twist, a glasses wearing girl, remarks with a giggle. "We know you're going to like it."

"Thanks, I guess. So...what are we going to do?" Nyx ask her new friends with a small grin.

"Well, we could try to do some awesome activities." Scootaloo said with a grin. "Of course, not near the entrance. Sunset and her former goons are still working on it."

"I know! Let's enter a talent contest!" Sweetie exclaims excitedly. "The showcase should be coming up next year."

"Hey, yeah!" Pipsqueak said excitedly, liking the idea. The boy looks down, frowning, "But I betcha you don't allow boys if you all enter."

"And I am not much of a singer." Dinky Doo, Derpy's little sister, said meekly. "I think I will sit this one out."

"Fair enough." Apple Bloom said with a shrug.

Just then, two familiar dogs walks up, barking a bit and startling everyone. Nyx groans, "Spike, Phobos! I told you to stay home!"

"Are those dogs yours?" Pipsqueak ask curiously as he glances at the dogs. Of course, the main CMC looks surprised. They look like Spike and Phobos, the Dragons who were changed into dogs upon entering the Human realm not too long ago.

"Well, almost." Nyx said meekly as she picks up Phobos, petting him. "This is Phobos, my pet dog. The other one is Spike, he belongs to my sister."

"Cute." Twist said, grinning while petting Spike who barks playfully. "But I don't think we are allowed dogs on the school grounds."

"Well, Ah'm sure we can sneak them in. 'Dat's how Fluttershy sneaks her animals around." Apple Bloom said. It's true, Fluttershy didn't want her animal friends to be lonely during the school hours so she sneaks into school every chance she gets.

"That sounds reasonable...until we get them home." Nyx said with a shrug as she opens her backpack, getting Phobos in.

"Let me help you with Spike." Pipsqueak offers as he picks up Spike and put the dog in his own backpack. "Least I can do for a new Cutie Mark Crusader."

"Thanks, Pipsqueak. You are a good friend to be considerate."

"No problem, that's me...a few times."

The other girls smirk while chuckling a bit towards Nyx and Pipsqueak. They look like just a cute couple when one can imagine it.

"You two look like a cute couple, you know that?" Dinky ask her friends, making them blush.

"Hey, come on!" The two exclaims embarrassedly while blushing.

"Awww, the sweet scene of romance in the air!" Sweetie exclaims sweetly as she spins around on one toe, doing her best not to fall.

"Hey, stop it! We're just friends!" Nyx exclaims, blushing along with Pipsqueak. Of course, she does find him cute...but rather not get into that right now.

"If yew say so." Apple Bloom remarks, rolling her eyes while smiling.

Nyx and Pipsqueak are really in denial.

-------

Sunset was holding her books as she is heading to class. The girl looks at some of the students glaring and avoiding her. She sighs sadly while shaking her head. Sunset will never live what she done down. It could take a miracle for everyone to trust her again.

Sunset suddenly yelps as she bumps into someone: a certain former boyfriend of hers. The girl blushes while speaking, "Oh, hey Flash. I was on my way to the class."

"Yeah... Me too. So, um... Want me to walk with you to class. Just in case if those jerks tried to mess with you..." Flash said, rubbing the back of his head. He knows how mean the other kids are to Sunset and wanted to help out.

"No, it's okay. I'll be fine. Besides, I don't want you to get hurt because of me."

"Why would I get hurt? I'll be fine. My dad was a cop. I can handle it."

"Please. Just do it for me. Okay? I don't want to cause trouble..." Sunset said meekly while rubbing her feet. The truth is, she is worried that Flash would be hated for hanging around someone who once tried to take over Equestria and turned the students into zombies once. The girl doesn't want her former love to be shunned because of her.

"Sunset..." Flash said in sadness. He knows how down Sunset is going through right now.

"I'd better go now..."

Sunset left. Flash groans as Ben shows up, looking concerned as he ask, "Women problem?"

"Big time." Flash said with a groan. "Sunset is feeling more neglected than ever. Not surprised since no one has ever forgotten the..."

Flash stop quickly as he saw Ben, remembering that the jock isn't supposed to mention what happened to the Fall Formal. He doesn't want Sunset to be in more trouble and in a bigger situation than he is already.

"Well, uh...let's say that the prank made her more hated. I want to help her...but she wouldn't out of concern or me." Flash said to Ben, changing the subject without giving away too much.

Ben nods in understanding. He pats his pal on the back, saying, "Relax. Someday, Sunset will be respected and trust again. It just take time to do so. Things like this don't change in one day."

"I hope you're right, Ben."

But before the boy could head off, Ben had his collar grabbed before knocked on the lockers hard. 

“Boris?! What the heck are you doing?” Ben demands in shock and alarm. Is Boris asking to get into trouble? 

“Taking what was mine!” Boris snarls as he prepares to hit Ben. 

“I don't know what you're talking about!” Ben insists in annoyance. Boris is a bigger jerk than usual. 

“The girl you have with you. I'm taking her back.” Boris said eagerly and determined. 

“The hay I would!” Ben exclaims angrily. No one tries to get Twilight! 

Ben head butted on Boris's head hard before kicked him off. Boris groaned in anger as he punched right at the former. Ben dodged down before punched on Boris's stomach hard and then punched on his chest three times. 

Boris groaned in anger as he jumped and slammed Ben to the ground. Both of them fought at each other hard and quick for a few times. 

In hope to help their boss out, Boxco and Dum-Dum grabbed Ben and throw him to the other lockers. They then kicked on him before Boris got and up and joined the party. It looks like this three on one will end the whole thing! 

At least, Boris thought so until a familiar figure rushes in, exclaiming, “Hey! Back off!” 

Flash charged in and pushed the three bullies aside. Boris grabbed his neck tight before slamming Flash to the ground hard. This former player ally of his will suffer for his interference! Boxco and Dum-Dum kicked on him hard and quick. 

Ben got up and knocked the bullies aside in hopes to help his friend out. He helped Flash up as they both had the fight with Boris and his gang for a long moment. 

At that moment, the Main Six, Sunset and Cutie Mark Crusaders came in and found out what they were watching, most to their shock. The students join and cheered for fight, especially since most of them are cheering for Ben and Flash to take Boris and his goons down. 

Burnblast came and whacked on Boris and his gang's heads hard, before the fight could get more intense. Leave it to him to get in the way! 

"OWW!!" Boris shouted in pain from Burnblast whacking his head.

"What are you doing?!" Boxco yelps to Burnblast in alarm and pain.

“The heck you know what I'm doing. Teaching you punks some manners!” Burnblast exclaims sternly. No one harms Shadow Dragon’s brother-in-law while he’s around. 

“Why I ought to -!” Boris exclaims in fury. Teacher or no, Burnblast must pay! 

Boris charged in but got slapped by Burnblast's wooden stick. Both Boxco and Dum-Dum charged in but he then whacked on them both hard and painful. They were about to get up but got beaten and whacked by Burnblast. The students, especially the good guys, cringe. That’s gotta hurt, even for the bullies. 

Nexus chose that time to come in, demanding, “What in goodness's name?! Mr. Burnblast! What are you doing?!” 

“Teaching these punks some manners.” Burnblast explains as Luna came onto the scene, also wanting to know what’s going on. Is Burnblast beating up on some students?! “Boy, these guys are stubborn and stupid... And above all, they pick a fight with your nephew, Luny.” 

“Cease your punishment at once! We do not punish them with violence!” Luna exclaims sternly as she forces Boris and his goons to their feet. “But I admit what Boris did is unforgivable. I'll have him be given a long detention. Next time, put them into detention class or send them to the principal. You're giving Canterlot High a bad name.” 

Luna took Boris and his gang to detention class. The students, regardless, cheers wildly. That was cool even when Burnblast was almost beaten the bad guys to death! 

Burnblast huffed, “Missy, it is bad.” The man turns to Ben and Flash who are recovering from the intense fight. “You boys alright?” 

"Yeah, thanks to you." Ben remarked.

"Good to know. Just stay out of trouble." Burnblast said satisfied as he leaves. Boris glares angrily at him, Ben and Flash. Oh, they will pay later.

"Honestly, Ben, what was that about?" Twilight ask Ben, relieved that he's okay but is upset for him getting into that fight. "Are you trying to get into trouble?"

"Boris started it first, Twiley." Ben said while rubbing his head. "I was defending myself and Flash was helping me out."

"At least don't do it again. I won't forgive myself if anything were to happen to you." Twilight said sadly, worried that Ben might not survive the next confrontation.

"No problem, Twiley." Ben said, hugging Twilight in assuration.

-----------------------

A few weeks has passed and things got interesting, especially with the Main Five. They somehow were able to become pony hybrids whenever they play. This amazes them all since they thought that when Equestrian Twilight took her crown back, the magic is gone too. It's a mystery.

The school and gang also got involved in a game from the Earth from the other world called "Total Drama" which is another story, but involves a lot of craziness and a deadly...something that must not be discussed here.

The Human Twilight and Ben meanwhile are still trying to get some information but so far, no one's talking. And Azure's losing patience fast.

In a dark room, Simmons frowns as he spoke to a shadowy figure. Azure and his pals risk most to keep him hidden from those who would kill him just for being associated with the Autobots. So far, the former agent known as Simmons's location was safe.

"Listen up, Wheelie, I got a task for you." Mr. Simmons said to the shadowy figure sternly.
"Yeah, what is it?" The shadowy figure known as Wheelie ask curiously.

"Get into Sunset's locker, find anything that could is a link to what happened at the Fall Formal the other day." Simmons said seriously.

"What am I? Your slave? I can't go breaking into kids' stuff." The hidden Wheelie protests in annoyance.

"No argument. You were lucky to avoid being found, Wheelie. Atinger would've broke you instead of hiding you." Simmons reminds Wheelie of this fact.

"Ugh, fine, fine, I will do it!" The shadowy Wheelie groans in defeat. He heads off, mumbling, "Oh, all of the things I have to put up with..."

-----------------

Sunset and her friends sat outside of the school after some classes were done, especially with the Dragon Strike Force. It was hard, but some of them, like Rainbow, Fluttershy, and/or Rarity are doing better.

Of course, there is one problem involving Sunset: the students are still giving her a hard time. Unbelievable.

"Sunset, Darling." Rarity spoke to Sunset seriously. "We are worried about you not having more friends than us."

"Yeah, I mean, wow, the students are giving a Super Duper Meanie Time." Pinkie said in concern, hanging upside down on the stairs for some reason.

"It's okay, really. I'm used to it." Sunset said with a sad sigh. The truth be told, she isn't use to it at all. The girl was hoping everyone will get over the incident and forgive her. No dice.

"Well, give us a chance 'ta help an' talk, sugar cube." Applejack said to Sunset with a frown. "Shucks, 'de more yew keep putting it of', 'de more time yew be alone."

"She's right. So far, you have been putting off giving Twilight and the others a chance." Fluttershy said, nodding in agreement in sadness. "Don't you want to be friends with them?"

"I...I want to be alone." Sunset sadly said as she heads off, needing time to be alone.

The Main Five walks Sunset leaves in concern. She is definitely hurting enough that the girl doesn't want to make more friends due to her wicked past.

Sunset is by herself. She needed some help and fast. The girl then head to Consultation Room where Flare Tiger is grading papers at the moment. The teacher looks up and saw the girl coming into the classroom. 

“Sunset Shimmer. Nice to see yah dropping by.” Flare Tiger said to Sunset with a smile as she came into the room. “So, what's the problem now?” 

Sunset sighed, “It may sound silly but... I miss him. And I really want to make friends.” 

She was referring to Flash, her Equestrian boyfriend who she hasn’t seen in a long time. Sunset also wanted to make friends…but how when most of everyone here at Canterlot High won’t even trust her? 

“Honey, the way you talk to me - you sounded like you really want to do it.” Flare Tiger said in concern, coming over to the girl in suspicion. 

“I do. But the last thing I want is hurting them. I don't want to hurt them, not the way it was before.” Sunset explains, crossing her arms in sadness. She fears that her past will catch up to her in a big way, hurting any chances of Sunset ever making new friends. “I don't want to cause some more trouble, especially with Flash. I hate myself so much.” 

“Hating yourself means hating the whole world.” Flare Tiger said mysteriously, much to Sunset’s confusion. What does she meant by that? 

“I don't get it.” Sunset said in concern. How does heating the whole world have to do with this? 

Flare Tiger then goes over to the blackboard. She erase some stuff off it while Flare Tiger herself continues explaining, “Twilight Sparkle stood up for you. The least you can do is befriend with her, Ben, Nyx and Starlight Not to mention, you can go a date with him.” 

Sunset blushed at the comment. She remarks, “Girl and friends, not a problem. But for Flash - I can't do that! It's embarrassing and stupid.” 

“I don't mean literally in taking a date. Just hang out with him.” Flare Tiger explains clearly to Sunset, although a bit of her smile in secret. “After all, he and the Main Six stood up for you. Don't you think you should return them a favor?” 

Sunset hummed in thought, “I guess I could try it.” 

“Good to hear.” Flare Tiger said, relieved to hear that Sunset is going to give it a try. She motions the student out the door. “Now get out there and make friends with the Main Six and Flash. After all, it's what Pony Twilight would've wanted you to do.” 

“Yeah, sure. But seriously - Pony Twilight.” Sunset giggled uneasily. How did Flare Tiger, this world, even knew about that? “You're joking, right?” 

Flare Tiger winked as she answers, “Eeyup, I am. Now go. They're waiting.” 

Deep down, Sunset was still confused of how Flare Tiger would know about Pony Twilight. Nevertheless, she smiled.

"Wow, an' Ah done thought Pinkie is random." Flare Tiger remarks with a light chuckle, shaking her head. "At least 'dat's 'de high points o' being friends wit' mah pony self."

-------------------------

Twilight, Ben, Nyx and Starlight are with the Main Five, discussing on what to do during the weekend. Just then, they spotted Sunset coming back, looking a bit awkward.

"Sunset, are you all right?" Fluttershy ask Sunset in concern.

"Yeah...I'm fine now." Sunset said, breathing in. "Twilight, listen...I wasn't giving you a chance to be friends with me during the time you were here. I guess after what happened, I was...look; can we start over?"

"Really? Well, I guess I will like that." Twilight said with a slow nod while smiling at this.

"We were done discssuing o' what 'ta do fer 'de weekend." Applejack said with a smile.

"Right, away from the lessons and the poundings." Rainbow groans, rubbing the back of her hand. "Still hurts."

"Hey girls." Nyx said as she saw the CMC coming over. The girl blushes a bit. "Hey Pipsqueak."

"Hi, Nyxie." Pipsqueak said with a grin. "Anyone got any plans for the weekend? I was thinking of hitting the Scare House."

"The Scare House?" Nyx asked. "What's that?"

"Kinda like Halloween all day around!" Pipsqueak said with a smirk. "Scary props and guys in costumes jumping up to scare ya."

"Oh my...sounds terrifying." Fluttershy said in a fright as she hid behind Rarity.

"Well, normally we get free prizes for staying in there without running out like little babies." Pipsqueak explains with a slight chuckle.

Some barking is heard, much to the notice of the others. The Main Five looks startled as Spike and Phobos pops out of Nyx and Pipsqueak's backpacks.

"Spike? Phobos?" Twilight ask in surprise. She gave a suspicion to her sister. "Nyx? What are they doing here?"

"Sorry, Twiley. They follow me to school again." Nyx admits to her big sister sheepishly. "We're trying to keep them hidden before bringing them home."

"Oh bother." Twilight said, slapping herself in annoyance. This may be a big tricky.

A toy truck was passing them by as it goes into the school. It then transformed into a robot, unknown to them all. The robot is a little blue one with two weirdo like eyes and wheels at certain parts on the lower part of his body. Wheelie took a peek at the class before snickering. 

“It's a good thing that Azure Phoenix kept me and Simmons out of sight from those crazy Cemetery Wind. I sure hope the Autobots are okay.” Wheelier remarks in amusement He glance at Sunset then whistled a bit. “Don't know why he wants this Sunset so badly. She's so hot, reminds me of someone. But better worth it when I find out as to what's going on here.” 

Wheelie approached Sunset's locker as he tried to reach it but the locker won’t open for him. The robot groaned in upset then gasped as he had an idea. He turned and found some boxes before putting stacks of them near the locker. His mission is almost done. 

As he took the last one, he had a mousetrap trapped his feet; this causes Wheelier to scream, “Ouch! Not again! Why does it had to be a stinking mousetrap?!” 

Wheelie put the last box up onto the top. He climbed and reached the top then started unlocking Sunset's locker using her combination that the robot managed to discover. It shouldn’t be long now. 

However, the Main Five’s group had entered the school at that moment. Wheelie’s work is loud enough to get their attention. 

“Did yew hear something?” Applejack ask her friends in concern. 

"It sounded like someone trying to pick into a locker nearby." Rainbow said, looking puzzled by the noise.

"Yeah, coming right near the area where Sunset's locker's at." Pinkie said thoughtfully.

Sunset gasped in shock as she realize what’s coming on now, “It's coming from my locker! I can't let someone take my stuffs!” That stuff could help someone else the school find out about Equestria!

"Then we better get there quickly!" Rarity remarked urgently.

"The nerve of some creep taking other people's stuff!" Pinkie exclaims angrily.

"Right, let me at him!" Rainbow exclaims as the kids rush off in a hurry to stop the would-be thief. 

Wheelie smirks as he got his task almost done. The robot is almost opening the locker now. 

“Almost there... Just a little bit more-!” Wheelie remarks anxiously. The stuff that Mr. Simmons wants will be his. 

Pinkie suddenly pops up behind him, yelling, “Hey! What're you doing?!” 

Wheelie squealed in fear as he fell to the ground hard, with the mousetrap springing out. He quickly crawled back quickly and away from them. 

Rainbow used the tongs and grabbed Wheelie's neck, keeping him from making a break for it. The robot struggled and snarled in anger of getting out from a tong. This is like what happened the last time. 

“Is that the best you can do?! Is that the best?!” Wheelie snaps as Rainbow held a tong on him against the locker. 

“What is that thing?!” Rarity yelps, a bit frighten by the appearance of Wheelie. 

“I don't know and I don't like it!” Sweetie exclaims in worry and concern. Could it be one of those robots that the school knows about? 

"It must be one of those Autobots or Decepticon bots." Scootaloo said in concern.

"What is it doing here?" Nyx ask in a bit of a fright at this.

Ben and Flash came to the sights when they heard the screams. Flash took a look at Wheelie then yelps in shock, “What is that thing?!” 

“Whatever it was, it's not a friendly one.” Applejack said, narrowing his eyes at this sight. 

“An’ a freak too.” Apple Bloom comments, not like Wheelie at all. 

Rainbow held her welding torch as she begins to demand, “Start talking, freak. What the heck are you doing at Sunset's locker?!” 

“Start talking!” Scootaloo demands. Rainbow fired her welding torch on Wheelie's right eye. It got burnt, sparkled and crisped. 

Wheelie screamed in pain, “That's my eye, you crazy witch! Just what I need - another witch to barbecue my eye!” 

“That wasn't nice!” Fluttershy exclaims in concern. Of course, whatever or not she is scolding Rainbow for hurting Wheelie’s eye or Wheelie for his backtalk is yet to be determined. 

“Not to mention, it's very mean too!” Pinkie remarks, narrowing her eyes a bit. 

Spike and Phobos barked angrily and wildly at Wheelie. Nyx nods as she said, “Even dogs hate you.” 

“Tell us now who are you and what are you doing here's?!” Twilight demands, giving a suspicious look to Wheelie. She of course already suspects that Wheelie is here on a mission to find out about what her new friends are hiding. 

“I'm not telling you anything! I will never! You Humans think yourself so perfect and better than everyone else. But at the end, you morons are just jokers and morons.” Wheelier exclaims to the girls in defiance. He isn’t going to be giving away any information so easily! Rainbow groaned angrily as she held the tong on Wheelie hard to the locker. “Easy, Rainbow Crash - I'm just salvage scrap drone!” 

“And I'm your worst nightmare, Decepti-creep!” The girl snaps as Rainbow put Wheelie into the box. 

“Not the box! Not the box! Not the box!” Wheelie protests in horror. Oh, this is so much too familiar to him! 

Rainbow locked it up. The girl turns to her friends, frowning as she spoke, “Until we know what that idiot's up to, we locked him up.” 

"Right, yeah sure, good idea." Most of the girls said in agreement.

"Err, no." Fluttershy said quietly and concerned. She doesn't think it's a good idea to do something that mean to Wheelie.

"Hey, we gotta keep forces outside of us from knowing too much." Rainbow said sternly. If this robot is send by someone, best to keep him detained.

“We need some to look after it until it’s ready to talk nicely.” Twilight suggests to her friends. Of course, the girl will need to inform Azure about this. 

The gang pauses while they turn to Sunset who looks uncomfortable. Looks like she is being volunteered for this task. 

“Alright. I'll take care of him. I hope he doesn't cause some fuss.” Sunset said, rubbing the back of her neck nervously. 

“We need someone to look after it until it’s ready to talk nicely.” Twilight suggests to her friends. Of course, the girl will need to inform Azure about this. 

The gang pauses while they turn to Sunset who looks uncomfortable. Looks like she is being volunteered for this task. 

“Alright. I'll take care of him. I hope he doesn't cause some fuss.” Sunset said, rubbing the back of her neck nervously.

"Right, here you go." Rainbow said, handing the box with Wheelie inside.

“Be careful with this one. He can be perverted.” Twilight said to Sunset in precaution. The girl looks confused, how did her friend seem to know about him? 

“He'd better watch it. He'll be sorry for it.” Flash said with a frown. If Wheelie gives Sunset trouble, that robot is going into the scrap heap! 

“What was he doing here?” Ben ask quietly. He knows of Wheelie, especially since the robot is in Mr. Simmons’s custody…but is the robot sneaking into Sunset’s locker to get some info? 

Wheelie is heard mumbling from inside the box, “I hate boxes...” 

--------------- 

Back at her home, which of course the girl was able to get thanks to Celestia and Luna, Sunset put the box on her bed while she looked at it. Wheelie struggled in trying to get out from the box. The former student of Princess Celestia ponders. Should she release Wheelie? Or keep the little pest in there? 

“Let me outta here! I need air. I need it. I need it! I'll do anything. Just let me outta here!” Wheelie cries out frantically. Sunset sighed as she opened the box and let Wheelie out. “Yes! Air! Finally! I thought I was gonna to die.” 

“Hey there.” Sunset spoke. Wheelie yelps and jumps back as if an attacker was about to ambush him. 

“Back off! I know karate! I'm not afraid to use them!” Wheelie exclaims trying to make moves as if he’s using karate. Rather pathetic, to be honest. 

“It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you. Hi. I'm Sunset Shimmer.” Sunset said to Wheelie, giving an innocent wave to Wheelie, much to his confusion. At least it was enough to calm him down. 

“Kinda weird to have greetings from you. Usually, aliens don't welcome each other that well, they like wanna to kill each other's throat.” Wheelie said in suspicion to Sunset. 

“Is that what you think? I'm not an alien. It's hard to be believe but I'm a magical pony.” Sunset explains clearly to Wheelie. Perhaps the time has come to come out with the truth. 

Wheelie was silent before laughed crazily, “That's a good one! A real good one!” 

Sunset groans in disbelief as she sat on her bed, “That's what I get for telling a stupid robot about me being a unicorn.” 

Wheelie manages to stop laughing, giving a surprised look at Sunset. Is she for real? Is this girl really a pony? 

“Seriously? Wow... That's so real for me. So why did you come here?! Are you a friend?” Wheelie ask Sunset curiously. 

Sunset sighed, shaking her head as she answers, “Sure wish if that's only simple...” 

“What's up?” Wheelie ask Sunset more curious. 

“Promise me not to tell anyone about this.” Sunset said to Wheelie in concern. She wants her past to be well kept at all cost. 

Sunset proceeds in telling Wheelier everything, from how she became a student of Princess Celestia, being corrupted that causes her to break bonds with everyone she knew about now, how the girl went to this world and cause a whole mess of trouble like breaking friendships, relationships, etc. Sunset even explains what had happened on the times that Pony Twilight came to this world.

When Sunset was done, Wheelier was speechless at first, then he spoke, "That's a pretty mess up. Sorry. Trust me. I've been there before. I was nothing but scrap heap Minicon until the Goddess of Warriors helped me. You're kinda remind me of her, and so does your boyfriend.” 

“Really? Thanks. What was she like?” Sunset ask Wheelie curiously. 

“She's a tough girl but like you - you care for the blue.” Wheelie explains with a light chuckle. 

“Flash? Nope. I don't think so. We broke up.” Sunset explains to Wheelie in sadness. The girl secretly wishes that she does get back with him though. Sunset misses Flash so much. 

Wheelie pats Sunset on the arm, smiling somewhat as he spoke, “It happen to lots of people, Goddess of the Sun. I've seen it but at the end, they patch things up. And trust me, you've got a bad day enough. One day and someday, you're gonna get him back, baby.” 

“You think so?” Sunset ask hopefully. It’s hard to believe that the girl is getting advice from someone who tried to break into her locker earlier. 

“Trust me. So what's next?” Wheelie ask Sunset, wondering to do now. 

“I don't know... How about a movie? Or karaoke? I'm good at singing and play a guitar. And of course, we could play Chess or play video games.” Sunset said getting a bit anxious. It could be that the girl is going to get her best friend outside of the Main Six…even though that someone is a robot! 

“Baby. Now that's kinda my thing.” Wheelie said excitedly to Sunset upon hearing that. The robot would love to do those kind of things."

And so, the two unlikely of pals begin doing a thing sings. The two watch various movies, including "Song of the South" which Celestia was somehow able to get for her despite the movie being banned due to some controversial issues. Wheelie watch in amazement as some of the segments, especially the cartoon ones.

Then Sunset got out her guitar and sings as Wheelie pays attention in interest. Who knew she was good at singing? And a few minutes later, Sunset and Wheelie plays a game of Chess and some video games...which the girl let him win each time.

During the whole thing, Wheelie got close and friendly to Sunset, something he once did with two girls of his pals. Sunset smiles as she hugs Wheelie.

For the first time in a long time, Sunset got herself a new best friend.

--------------

"Boris, you idiot!" Chrysalis groans a bit as she and Sombra have a conversation with him and his boys in the detention room the next day. "You and your dopes have to go and attack the principal's kid."

"Hey, I didn't think I would be thrown in here okay?" Boris protests to Chrysalis, slapping his forehead in his seat.

"That's the problem. You don't think at all! Just be lucky Sombra and I are in charge of your detention."

"Especially since Shadow Dragon and his pals are trying to keep an eye on us." Sombra remarks, leaning back on the front of the desk. "Listen up, and listen good. We got a big plan for later...we need some special help and some time."

"But come on! Why wait?" Boxco ask the student teacher with a groan.

"Yeah! I mean, we managed to smuggle Boris's Decepticon armor in here." Dum-Dum said in agreement, nodding to Boris's bag. "The boss could just finish it right now."

"Yes, no one tries to steal something from me!" Boris exclaims, getting up and heading to a window. He gave a furious look at Ben, sitting at a tree with Twilight. The girl is reading some sort of book to him. "What does he got that I don't?!"

"A brain for one." Chrysalis remarks with a grunt, making Boris glares angrily at her.

"And what gave you the right to..."

"Shut up! Listen up, you three don't do anything until the time comes for our plan to begin!" Sombra snaps angrily at the three while taking out a familiar helmet. "I won't hesitate to use your fears against you if you even try anything. Do you want that?"

"No, no." Boxco and Dum-Dum exclaims nervously to Sombra nervously.

"Boris?" Chrysalis ask Boris who went silent a bit. If he knows what's good for him, the fool will obey and not try anything "funny".

"Yeah, no problem." Boris said with a nod. "I will play your little game...for now."

"Good. Now, I must get something from the office real quick. You three step here so that Sombra keeps an eye on all of you! No funny business!"

Chrysalis thus leave the room to get something from the office. Hopefully it won't take a few minutes or so to get before she can come back to observe Boris's attention. Speaking of which, the boy looks at his bag anxiously then remembers Ben sitting with Twilight outside.

Boris twitches a bit, getting a bit ticked off. He is tired all of this waiting....

------------

"Okay, so far, nothing is suspicious about the teachers." Terrorcreep said as he and the Dragon Strike Force goes through the lists of resumes. "There isn't anything suspicious about these folks so far."

"Ugh. This is frustrating!" Aqua groans as she threw her pile onto the desk, making Shadow Dragon glare. "We haven't gotten anything from Twilight and Ben's new friends. They're stubborn as mules."

"Come on, don't be like that! You could offend the mules!" Laxtinct laughs a bit as if making the best joke all over. Of course, the man stops as Blazefist glares at him. "Sorry."

"Wait a minute." Burnblast said as he found the resumes for Sombra and Chrysalis. "It seems like two students had become student teachers. Sombra...Chrysalis. Don't those two look familiar?"

"Yes, those names are familiar." Shadow Dragon said, leaning back thoughtfully. "They are in charge of Boris and his goon's detention today."

"Of course, we all know who those two are." Aqua said thoughtfully. She and everyone else heard of those names.

If that's the case, the Dragon Strike Force got two more individuals to keep an eye on at all cost...

----------

In the gym class which is being held outside, the Main Six and Sunset's friends, except for Ben and Twilight who aren't attending the class at this time but right where Boris sat them at earlier, were in shock and surprise to find out that Sunset and Wheelie became friends. 

"Are you kidding me?! You seriously trust him?!" Rainbow ask in shock and annoyance. 

"Right, that thing tried to get into your locker." Rarity said to Sunset, reminding her as to what Wheelie tried to do before. "And now you're busy friends with him?"

"What if he's pretending to like ya?" Fluttershy ask Sunset worried. "I don't want a friend's betrayal by something to be on my conscious." 

The rest of the group nods in agreement with Rainbow's POV. Who's to say that Wheelie can be trusted and be Sunset's new friend? It's impossible!

"Don't worry about me. I'll be fine. Wheelie's a friend." Sunset said to her friends with a smile while keeping Wheelie out of sight.

"Wheelie?" Most of the group ask in shock and confusion by the name in question.

"That little freak had a name?" Rainbow scoff, disbelieved that something like Wheelie would even have a name at all!

"Yes, it has. And trust me on that, witch!" Wheelie snaps at Rainbow in a mean tone of voice.

"Wheelie..." Sunset said in a stern tone of voice. She doesn't like what Wheelie just said just now.

"Sorry..."

"Don't worry, he can be trusted."

"Well...okay, since yew trust him, we will give him 'de benefit o' 'de doubt." Applejack said with a thought before nodding.

"Right, sure! Robots are fun, unlike those meanie nasty Decepticons!" Pinkie exclaims, bouncing up and down playfully.

"Well, if you think it's okay...." Fluttershy said to Sunset with a sigh, agreeing to give Wheelie a chance for now.

"Very well, we will trust him for your sake, Sunset." Rarity said with a shrug. After all, if Sunset insisted...

"Oh, fine, whatever." Rainbow groans while crossing her arms. "It's going to annoyed me throughout life but fine!"

"I'm keeping an eye on you, Wheels." Flash said to Wheelie sternly. If that robot even think of betraying Sunset, he got another thing coming!

Wheelie stuck his tongue out while taunting right back at Flash, "And you'd better watch yourself, pretty boy."

---------

Twilight just got done reading her book as she and Ben prepares to head off to watch the gym class in action. The two look at each other then look away in guilt. The couple right now are spying on those who believe them to be their friends. Twilight and Ben are...but they feel guilty that Shadow Dragon and Azure wants them to pry information about the last Fall Formal.

What's more upsetting is that the two hadn't told the other about what one or the other is up. Perhaps...they should talk now. After all, Twilight and Ben both knew what Azure Phoenix wanted, right? Why keep it a secret?

"Twilight..." Ben said with a sigh to his girlfriend.

"Ben..." Twilight said with a sigh, preparing to come out.

"I got something I wanna tell you!" Both said at the same time. The couple blinks a bit, looking surprised by their request.

"Actually, Ben, you go first."

Ben nods, breathing in and out. Time to tell Twilight the truth as to what he is up to. The boy can't keep it inside much long. Otherwise, something will break.

But something ELSE did break as a wall of the school suddenly blow opens, knocking the two back. As they got up, Ben and Twilight gasps as they saw a Decepticon like being appearing from through the hole that was made. Before they could react, the figure fires a shot at Twilight, trapping her in a force field.

"A Decepticon?!" Ben gasps, but got smacked by the robot's fist, knocking him into a tree.

As Ben got back up, the figure flew over as he spoke in a familiar voice, "No, a human in a suit like it!"

"Boris?!"

Ben screams as Boris fires a lightning blast at him, zapping the poor boy hard. The villain laughs cruelly as he kicks Ben a few times then throw him over his shoulder.

"No one makes a fool out of me!" Boris exclaims madly as he presses a button on his armor's waist, resulting in missiles to come out in certain place. "It's time to go to war!"

Inside the detention room that Boris spoke out of, Sombra mumbles angrily as he is tied up and gagged with Boxco and Dum-Dum watching him. Boris got his armor on earlier and ambushed the teacher, tying him up to keep Sombra from interfering.

"Sorry about this, Sombra. It's for our own good." Boxco said to Sombra with a meekish smile while patting him on the head as if to assure him "no hard feelings".

"Don't you mean "your own good"?" Dum-Dum ask Boxco puzzled.

"No, I mean "our".

Chapter 4: The End of the Transfer


The kids were getting ready to head inside the school. It looks like another usual day of...but then, an explosion is heard, getting everyone's attention.

"Did you guys heard something?" Flash ask the others in alarm.

"Sounds like an explosion!" Rarity exclaims in alarm.

"But there weren't any plans fer fireworks today!" Applejack exclaims.

"So what idiot would be doing so today?!" Rainbow yelps in alarm as another explosion occurred.

Wheelie screamed in fear as his sensors detect something, "Holy Crap! Decepticon Incoming! Decepticon Incoming!"

"What are you talking about, Wheelie?" Sunset ask in shock and alarm. No Decepticon would have any reason to attack the school. Then again, those robotic creeps need no reason to attack anyone AT ALL.

"Are you saying there is a Decepticon here?" Fluttershy ask Wheelie in fright. She wants to hide in a bush and stay there for days.

"Start talking, Wheelie!" Pinkie exclaims sternly to Wheelie. "I feel like bursting with less knowledge!"

"I'm picking a Decepticon's signal! And they're attacking two students!" Wheelie explains to his new friends in alarm.

Applejack gasps as she looks around, "Where's Twilight and Ben?!"

"Oh, they don't have Gym class with us today." Pinkie explains to Applejack happily. She motions to the front, adding, "They say they were going up front to..."

"THAT'S WHERE THE TROUBLE'S AT!!!" Rainbow exclaims in horror. Her two new friends are being attacked by the same Decepticon up front right now!

"We have to help them now!" Flash exclaims in alarm. He isn't going to lose his new friends to some robot. Not today.

------------

The Main Six and their friends aren't the only ones alerted to the "Decepticon's" attack. An alarm went off in Shadow Dragon's room. The Dragon Strike Force team check the monitors which they connected their spy cams too. To their shock, they saw Boris, in his suit, knocking back Ben.

Blazefist hissed angrily, "Crap! Ben, Twilight and our friends are in trouble! We've to help them now!"

"Yeah! We have to. Rainbow and Scootaloo need me." Aqua said with a nod. Hidden agenda or no, her friends needs her more than ever!

"So does Rarity and others." Shorty said seriously. The others will most likely be involved in this mess.

Laxtinct interrupts the others before they try to make a break for it, "Guys, we can't just barge in and show our abilities. They may think we're the government black ops." It's true, as well as the fact that it will jeopardize the team's mission!

"Then, we be the one. It's time for Dragon Strike Force to move out! Suit up, everyone." Shadow Dragon said sternly.

The Dragon Strike Force member looks at each other and nodded. As long as they're in disguise, no one will ever figure out a thing.

Burnblast whistled as he slams his fists together, "Oh yeah! We're back in the war."

"Lord Burnblast, we have to rescue the children." Lightningblade said, reminding Burnblast of the task at hand. This isn't a war, it's a big rescue mission.

As the Dragon Strike Force heads off on their mission, Saber spoke seriously, "Agreed. Hold on, guys. We're coming!"

This mission may not be an easy one with a Decepticon, or a suit, involved!

---------

Ben yelps as Boris knocks him right into the ground. Boris laughs wickedly, preparing to continue the assault. No one will help Ben this time. It will just be the two boys...with Twilight being forced to watch in the force bubble.

Boxco and Dum-Dum watch the battle through the hole of the detention room. They laugh madly, having the time of their life. Looks like no one would ruin their show now...

"What is the meaning of this?!" A familiar voice demands angrily. The two morons turn and yelps as they saw Chrysalis, who finally came back from what she needed to get. And trust me, folks, she isn't pleased at all!

Boxco and Dum-Dum yelped and screamed in fear as they all charged and ran off at once. The evil Chrysalis groans as she unties Sombra, freeing him from the chair.

As Sombra got up and got rid of the gag, Chrysalis growls angrily, "Of all the idiots, Boris had to ruin everything! This is unacceptable and annoying!"

"Indeed... We must get that idiot back! He's going to expose us to the public and government!" Sombra exclaims in agreement. Boris will ruin everything unless he is detained!

"Let them be." A voice spoke from a device that is on the desk. Sombra has forgotten that he left it on so that his mysterious boss would hear everything...especially as to what's going on! "The plans has been change. Leave this area at once... Drake will take care of Boris. He has some use to us..."

"Are you certain, my lord?" Chrysalis ask seriously as she picks up the device in concern.

"Go now.... Meet up with General Skull at once. Time is wasting..."

Chrysalis and Sombra looks at each other and nod. The two begin to take their leave. They are planning on making it looks like they're taking a vacation due to the latest disaster...and come back when everything dies down...for now.

-----------

Boris laughed manically and evilly as he tried to punch and fired his Decepticon's Armor Blasters at Ben, wo quickly dodged and avoided the attacks from him. But the Canterlot High's building got blasted and attacked during the madness.

"Boris, knock it off! Why are you doing this?!" Ben demands frantically to his enemy.

Boris roared in anger, "I want Twilight Sparkle! I want her now! Give her to me now!"

"Never!"

Boris slammed his punch on Ben but the latter rolled over to the front. He then punched on his enemy's back but exclaimed in pain. That armor is hard! Boris grabbed Ben's neck tight as he was ready to strangle him to death. Ben struggled in getting off from Boris's grasp, but the villain is choking him to the point of no return.

A can is thrown right on Boris's head. The villain turned and found the Main Six, Sunset, the Crusaders and Flash standing before him. He chuckled evilly, "You'd think you can beat me? You honestly think kick my butt? I don't think so!"

"Is that Boris?" Fluttershy whispers to her friends in surprise.

"Well, so it isn't a Decepticon at all, just a wannabe in a suit." Rainbow remarks in amusement while cracking her knuckles. "This will make things much easier for us."

"Hey, we took you an' yer goons on before an' dang it, we will knocked ya down again!" Applejack exclaims sternly to Boris.

"And trust me, detention will the least of your worries!" Pinkie exclaims as she tries to pull out her cannon...but nothing came out. "Awww, what I wish for a party cannon right now."

Boris was about to fire his blasters at them. But then more trashes and garbage are thrown on him. He looked up and found more students and staffs standing before him. They threw more stuff at him.

"Hey, creep! Leave everyone alone!" Lyra exclaims furiously to Boris.

"We already had to deal with one tyrant trying to hurt us, we don't need another!" Sweetie Drops exclaims. Sunset cringes a bit. She can tell that those words were directed at her.

"Yeah!" Bulk Biceps exclaims, throwing some more stuff.

"Boris, give up now and we promise the next punishment will move slowly for you!" Cheerilee exclaims as the staff exclaims eagerly.

"You are nothing more than a bully, using armor to pick on students not!" Octavia exclaims furiously as she point an accusing finger at the villain.

"Looks like you aren't scaring anyone anymore, Bor-jerk." Twilight said, smirking in her little force field bubble.

"I had it! You'd think I'm just a bully. Wait till you try to test the Red Devil's Wrath." Boris exclaims furiously as he flew into the air, taking Ben with him. How dare these fools get in his way! "I may not have the power now, but I have the Dark Terrorists powerful weapon. I owe it to Chrysalis and Sombra. They all allied to Dark Curse!"

Chrysalis, hidden behind the school walls, groans as she slaps herself for what Boris just said, "That idiot! He's ruining everything! We're so close to finding the portal so we can take at least one specimen for Guildenstern to experiment!"

"It's like our agent had said - we have to leave now. Let Drake deal with this." Sombra said quietly. Hopefully everyone would think that what Boris just said is just talk!

The two villains quickly make a run for it, escaping the battle just as Boris makes his next move.

"Die!" The villain exclaims. Boris fired his Blasters at the Canterlot High. Everyone screamed in fear and worry as they all ran away from Boris's attacks.

"Hey, leave everyone alone!" Sweetie exclaims, shocked and angry for Boris.

"Yeah, what did they ever do to you?!" Scootaloo exclaims in agreement.

"Give her to me, so I'll spare them alive! The Red Devil always gets everything!" Boris exclaims madly. He always gets what he wants and no one would say otherwise.

"No!" Ben exclaims. Boris growls as he made some spike appears in one arm, preparing to stab at his opponent.

VROOM! An old and broken silver car charged in and swung it's head onto Boris's legs hard, causing the latter to fell to the ground and for him to release Twilight. She fell but luckily the girl landed shortly to the ground. Ben, on the other hand, is let go by Boris but is falling high in the air.

Ben was about to fell to his death but the car stopped at once while opening the top in allowing Ben to land on the seat. It then opened its doors to the others, much to their surprise. What is this about?

A voice came from the car, "Come with me if you want to live!"

"Wait, a talking car?" Rarity ask her friends in surprise.

"I don't know, should we do this?" Nyx ask the others in concern.

"It doesn't look safe." Pipsqueak said in concern. How would the gang know to even trust this car?

"Trust him. He's the Autobot! Follow him now!" Wheelie exclaims, urging his friends to trust the car who is an Autobot.

Well, if Wheelie said that he's an Autobot, then this car can indeed be trusted. The car attached the large wagon in allowing Twilight and her friends get in. They then drove off at once.

As Boris recovers, he saw his victims in the car, making a break for it. The villain exclaims furiously, "Come back here!"

Boris's armor transformed into a car as he then begin chasing after the mysterious car which drove off quickly and away from Boris, but the latter continued chased after him. Boris's car tried to knock the mysterious car hard and quick but he missed for some times. The mysterious car continued driving very fast and even passing through some traffic. It also avoided from hitting the cars as well. The gang got to get away from that crazy bully.

Boris roared in anger as he push its full throttle in charging straight at them. He even knocked some cars at each other to get through the traffic jam.

Upon arriving to a construction site, the mysterious car stopped at once. Boris had arrived to the area, along with Boxco and Dum Dum whom he picked up along the way.

"No way out, pal. Time to die." Boris exclaims as he let his riders out. No escapes, no second thoughts; it’s payback!

"Oh great, what are we going to do now?!" Twilight yelps a bit, looking worried and annoyed.

"Come on, we outnumbered him!" Twist exclaims frantically.

"Yeah, but outnumbered doesn't always work!" Apple Bloom points out to Twist in fright.

"We're doomed." Fluttershy said meekly, feeling the worst has come.

The voice however spoke to his passengers, "Not today... Wheelie, get the kids to safety. Time to beat this crap out of it!"

"Got it, Sideswipe." Wheelie said in determination, much to the surprise of the others.

"Sideswipe?" Most of the kids ask in surprise.

"Wasn't he an Autobot who..." Sunset said in concern, amazed that she and her friends are being helped out by the same Autobot who is being hunted down by Cemetery Wind.

"Escape first, ask questions later!" Rainbow insists to Sunset with a frown. Now is not the time to ask with a mad man targeting them! 

As soon as Twilight and her friends got off from the wagon, the mysterious car transformed into a broken form of Sideswipe.

"Wow!" The CMC exclaims in excitement at the sight of the Autobot.

"So 'dat's Sideswipe." Applejack remarks with a devilish smirk. "Hoo doggy. Boris is in trouble now."

"Hey, bully. Last chance - give up before you get yourself hurt." Sideswipe demands sternly to Boris, preparing to fight unless the creep backs off.

Boris scoffed at the threat, "With you being rusted bot, how can I lose to you. Go to heck, freak!"

Boris transformed and charged at Sideswipe as he was about to punch at the robot. Sideswipe dodged down and swiped Boris's legs before kicking the latter off. Boris fell his back right onto the ground. The villain got up and charged at his opponent who blocked and deflected the attacks from the former for a few times while punching and kicking him hard and quick.

Sideswipe gave a hard punch on Boris's face, but was grabbed by the latter before throwing him off to the walls. Sideswipe hovered and landed on the walls as he pushed himself hard and slammed Boris onto the ground. Sideswipe jumped and hovered off to the front. He turned and armed with his swords, preparing for another round.

Boris roared in anger as he summoned his swords out. Both Sideswipe and Boris charged in and swung their swords at each other hard and quick for a few times while blocking and dodging them for a few times. They both had their swords clashed at each other for the moment while glaring at each other.

Sideswipe smirked darkly. Before Boris could do anything, Sideswipe pushed the swords up as he gave Boris's Armor a cut. The Autobot kicked villain off before punching on him for a few times and kicking him as well. Before Boris could do anything, Sideswipe punched the glass and grabbed Boris, slamming him to the ground.

Sideswipe glared at Boris and his gang while snapping, "I could kill you now. I wouldn't care how much you value your lives." 

Everyone looks shocked and alarmed at this. Ben mumbles, "Geez, I didn't think that guy would go that far."

"Right, especially when it comes to people like Boris." Sunset said in concern. Would Sideswipe actually go in for the kill?

Fortunately for Boris, Sideswipe then spoke sternly, "But I'll be no better than Decepticons. I let Humans decide your fates. You've cause lots of troubles for them."

Boris huffed as he quickly got back up, "Fine by me. I'm gonna finish you off for good, Mare!"

"Bring it on." Ben said in determination. He has had enough of Boris. Time to end this right now!

Boris charged in and punched at Ben who dodged and backed away from his punches while punching him back for a few times. Boxco and Dum Dum charged in to help their boss but stopped by the Main Six, the Crusaders and Flash blocking their ways. No way are these two dimwits getting in the way!

Both Boxco and Dum Dum charged in and attacked Twilight and her friends, both are determined yet stupid. They all dodged the attacks quickly. The Crusaders threw some rocks and trashes at them both hard, making Boxco and Dum-Dum yelp in pain. Rainbow swiped her legs on them before they fell before both Applejack and Rarity who punched their faces hard. Both Pinkie and Fluttershy tripped both to make them both fall down to the ground hard.

As Boris and Ben continued punching at each other hard and quick for a few times, the good guy punched on his enemy's head but was blocked by the latter. Boris punched on Ben's head for a few times before kicking on his stomach hard. Boris grabbed and throw him onto his behind. Boris was about to slammed onto Ben's head. 

But then Flash pulled Boris back hard before punching on him hard for two times. The villain ended up head butting on him hard before kicking him off. Twilight punched on Boris's head hard before kicking his bottom hard. That will teach him! Ben jumped and kicked Boris off to the ground.

As Boris struggled to get up, Sunset approached him and then she gave him a hard punch to the ground.

"Don't mess with Sunset's punch, moron!" Wheelie cheers on wildly.

Boris got up and fires lightning at Sunset and Wheelie, knocking them down. The villain snaps, "And don't mess with the Red Devil either! Now where's Ben?!"

Suddenly Boris hears noises, turning to see Rainbow in a Bulldozer, ramming him to the ground. Applejack got to work on a crane and swing to hit Boris hard. The CMC, working a wrecking ball, knocks him back, sending him down further. As Boris got up, Pinkie hums as she turns on a Cement Truck, causing quick drying cement to be poured right onto Boris' feet, getting him stuck.

"INCOMING!" Sunset exclaims as she pulls a TNT level on a detonator nearby.

Everyone makes a run for it, except for Boris who is stuck still. An explosion occurs as the whole building is falling right onto him. As everyone else got out of the danger zone in time, they look at the remains.

"Well, looks like that's that." Wheelie said with a smirk. "Looks like we brought down the house!"

"Yep, looks like it's..." Sweetie said happily. But then the top of the wreckage blows open, revealing Boris who flew up into the air. "Oh come on!!!"

Boris lands right in front of his enemies, a bit messed up but isn't down just yet. The villain is stubborn and determined to finish what he started!

"You have stood in my way for the LAST time, Ben Mare. Unlike the last time, you had a magic sword that saved you that defeated me, but now with this newfound power....nothing can stop me!" Boris snapped off to say this in having prepared his Decepticon armor suit to lock sits weapons of the one target the jerk wishes to use...in defeating an enemy that stop him before even if that was Ben Mare from a pony universe.

"Brother, ye still haven't learn a signal dang thing, Boris De Animal with a Bad Attitude!" Spoke out a red neck accent in getting some attention, especially with Boris.

"GAAAAAUGH! It's Just Boris!" Boris groans off in making the suit react just as the user did from feeling upset. "And I know that voice anywhere." Boris snapped off to say as he began to look for the one that insulted him.

Soon all eyes spot a familiar man walking out into the open between those that were trying to take on a giant Decepticon battle-suit armor wore by Boris. And the one who came was...Hoboken Joe!

"Hobo Joe, what are you doing here?" Ben replied off shock to see this guy was here all of a sudden, but why?

"Just thought I help stop a jerky boy from wrecking de place & stealing yer girl, Ben. Ain't dat wha a pal does?" Hobo Joe smiled off to calmly state this while never showing any fear against an evil looking over him in a giant bot.

"You stop me, hah!" Boris remarked off in taking that as some kind of joke, one normal man against a Decepticon suit of armor, crazy doesn't describe the odds here.

"But didn't he catch us by surprise before?" Boxco stated off in remembering what Hobo Joe did last time they were turn Demonic & worked under Sunset Shimmer before.

"Yah, what do you think he's got now?" Dum Dum nods off in remembering that Demon Sunset Shimmer almost won in getting Ben, but Hobo Joe arrived in the nick of time.

"This time, you old fool, you're going to learn what happens when you cross paths with Boris the Gunman!" Boris snapped off in turning his Decepticon armor suit & aim all weapons in about to eliminate this wreckage man from his sight. The others were worried, what was Hoboken Joe gonna do against Boris in his giant mechanical suit?

"Well, let me introduce ta yah my pally, EMP. He's a real bomb!" Hobo Joe smiled off to say this in making a joke of having Boris meet someone.

Then without warning, Hobo Joe threw a strange sphere that magnetize itself on Boris's Decepticon body. Then it was making were techno noises that were like a countdown or something.

"Wait, doesn't EMP stand for....Electro-Magnetic Pulse that...?" Boris yelps off from realizing what this old fool was plotting to do here.

"Yep, shuts down all electronics, including...Transformer type Armor Suits." Hobo Joe smiled off to comment in what he was gonna pull here that the guy never would see coming; that it's not all about brawn, brains are the next best thing to beat a really tough opponent especially an opponent getting power from an electrical suit.

At that instant, the EMP Bomb let off an implosive surge wave that was effecting the Decepticon armor to react in a twitchy way. That caused it to suddenly lose power & then topple itself right onto the ground backwards; lying in defeat. The others were amazed, who knew that was also another way to beat Boris even without fancy weapons or in some folks cases...'magic' in the field.

"No, no, NOOOOO! This can't be happening! Not again! My brilliant plan was supposed to be perfect!" Boris protest off to say this in trying to get his Decepticon battle-suit up and running, but it was no good, that EMP Bomb shorted out all the electronics, Boris was nothing but inside an empty shell for all this things was worth.

Then at that sudden, the hatch was force opened in where Boris shut his eyes to stare up in seeing someone come for him...it was a seriously tick off Ben Mare that gaze down at the fallen bully.

"Looks like your bright idea just came undone, lights out Boris!" Ben issued this off with a stern face, as he ready his right fist & punch Boris right in the face.

"Gwuuagh!" Boris was hit hard to be knocked backwards & knockout; as now he was beaten & outwitted by his foes.

Dum Dum & Boxco yelps in seeing their boss was defeated yet again and knew they be next to pay up for their act in helping Boris. But as the two turn to leave off without being seen, Hobo Joe had appeared before them, making them yelp.

"And just where do ye think ye be going?" Hobo Joe asked off with a sly smile on his face here.

"That way!" Boris's stooges pointed in the opposite direction of the other, then turn to ran. "GUUAUGH!" But both were not paying attention, and both Boxco & Dum Dum ran into the other in being knocked out.

"Eh, barely had ta lift a finger with doops like these two." Hobo Joe shrug off to say this in being pleased that this was over before it begun.

Soon Twilight rushed on over near Ben who climbed down from the cease function Decepticon armor suit, and the girl hug her boyfriend in a great big hug.

"Oh Ben, I was so afraid of what would happen if you lost." Twilight spoke off in feeling so scared of losing this guy.

"Eeehh.....yah, careful with the hugs Twilight, I'm still recovering a bit." Ben cringed a bit from feeling a slight bit of pain from the hug as Twilight backs off from remembering the guy was still lightly hurt from what Boris did with that giant suit.

"Hobo Joe, how was it you came across an EMP Grenade, once more...finding us?" Flash Sentry asked off in how this guy here managed to know where they were & had something like that; especially for a janitor at their school.

"Don't ask me, de grenade thing was something my assistant left on de desk this morning, I was just taking it ‘ta return it when I saw dat there hole in de school's wall. After dat, followed ye kids in thinking ye were in trouble with something fierce." Hobo Joe shrug off to say this that he had that EMP Bomb thingy that Laxtinct forgot to take & he was returning it only to see this group in trouble & just followed along and acted out in how the situation called it.

"Thanks very much for helping us out there." Nyx smiled off to say to Hobo Joe, he helped out in that last minute to finally end the fight against Boris when the jerk had a huge advantage that was totally unfair.

"Weren't nothing, but gotta say....stealing a dangerous Transformer Suit Armor will not look good on Boris's record, he'll probably be expelled & sent ta military school after this. Him and these two goofs." Hobo Joe smiled off to say this while notifying that from the illegal actions that Boris & his gang pulled off, being expelled is the least of their worries in having harbor a dangerous weapon out in public.

"One thing I can be glad about is that Boris won't be bothering us every again. That, and being outdone by a janitor will hurt his pride even more." Ben smiled off to say this in seeing that Boris will have a lot to think about after having lost now & it'll shame his street credit.

"I say it was already tarnish before we meant him." Twilight smiled of to make a silly joke that with Boris, he never had much of any credit for his jerky & bullying ways.

That caused everyone to start laughing it up, as they found that joke very funny. Later on, the local authorities came over, handcuffed Boris, Boxco & Dum Dum before putting them in a SWAT car & having them taken off somewhere in where they won't be seen for a long time. Even the military authority were securing the stolen Transformer suit armor that was also somehow taken without their knowledge. At least for now, the Mane Six & their gang can feel relieved that this little event was put behind them now.

The girls saw Trixie looking pouty, looking upset over the fact that the boy that she likes, Boris, is now expelled! Fluttershy comment, "Trixie does NOT seem to be taking it well." 

Nyx add, "And I have a feeling it will get even worse after Rainbow has beaten her in a 'shred-off', only to realize she likes her old guitar better and then leave Trixie stuck with a bill that she would have to rip off her mob boss father to pay. Unless she decided not to get the guitar but still…"

"Good riddance, I'd say." Rainbow remarks with a shrug, remembering that event all so well.

Trixie ask Celestia angrily, "How the heck does Boris get sent off to military school when you didn't do the same thing to Sunset?"

"Simple. Boris stole something that didn't belong to him from a military unit. Sunset didn't." Celestia said to Trixie with a shrug.

Trixie growls as she storms away, giving a look of hatred at the Main Six and friends. Something tells them that this isn't over yet, not by a long shot!

Sideswipe stood near the kids, smiling as he spoke, "Nice work, kids. You all had me worried."

"No problem, Sideswipe. Glad to have you on our side." Ben said to Sideswipe with a chuckle.

"But tell me, what are you doing all the way out here?" Flash ask the Autobot puzzled.

"Right, I mean, Autobots aren't exactly good superheroes nowadays." Starlight said in agreement, looking a bit concerned.

"I was hiding on Optimus's order from any humans. And the last thing I remember is I was being attacked by the humans and Lockdown who is helping them." Sideswipe explains sternly to the kids as to the reason why he's here.

"Who is Lockdown?" Sunset ask in concern, fearing her answer.

"He is me!" A voice spoke up from out of nowhere.

BANG! Sideswipe got his chest shot as he fell to the ground. Everyone was in shock and feared as they all turned and found some black ops soldiers, Lockdown and his ship were marching towards them. The Main Five, the CMC and Flash looks scared. Their appearance could endanger the portal to Equestria!

"Who are these guys?!" Fluttershy ask frightened, hiding behind her friends.

"An' what do they want?!" Apple Bloom ask terrified as she and her friends hug each other.

Ben snarled in fury, "It's them. Cemetery Wind..."

Lockdown nods, giving out orders to his troops, "Restrain the interlopers. I would like to have a word with my prisoner..."

Cemetery Wind came and blocked Twilight and her friends from going and moving out. Humans or not, anyone who sided with the Autobots or Decepticons will be dealt with...just like what happened to the Autobots' past human allies!

"Get out of the way, you jerks!" Starlight exclaims, trying to make his way.

"You are making an escape! That Autobot helped us!" Pinkie exclaims in worry for her big robotic friend.

"Move, move, move!" The kids exclaims but the Cemetery Wind soldiers push them down. The older students gasps as they help them up. Those creeps don't even care who gets in their way!

Sideswipe groaned as he tries to get up, "Lockdown...."

"You're my next prey now.... Wreckers, Mirage, Ratchet and now you..." Lockdown said sinisterly to Sideswipe, counting off the targets that are eliminated so far. "If you want to live, tell me, where is he? Where is Optimus Prime?!"

"Forget you..."

Lockdown smirked as if expecting this answer. The robot remarks, "Fine for me. I've always enjoyed the hard way anyway. Break him as hard as you can..."

Some Cemetery Wind soldiers fired their machine guns and Lockdown fired his in damaging Sideswipe. Twilight and her friends were in shock. How could these soldiers who dare called themselves humans be so cruel?!

"They can't do that to him!" Nyx exclaims in horror.

"Leave him alone!" Pipsqueak exclaims. The boy yelps as one soldier kept his gun on him.

"Move and you get dead for interfering!" The soldier snaps at Pipsqueak cruelly. "We already took out the freaks' human pals who get in our way."

"You don't even deserved to be called humans!" Rainbow exclaims angrily and disgusted by this. "You are just monsters."

"Take one to know one, brat!"

Sunset groaned in determination, "Leave him alone!" The girl pushed some soldiers off as she rammed some off. She stood up and had her hands opened wide before Lockdown. "Leave him alone! Why are you doing this?!"

"To collect my bounty. And I'll do anything to collect mine!" Lockdown snaps in annoyance by Sunset's interference. "Stay out of my way, human..."

"Hey, pick someone on your own size." A familiar bot pops up, ready to defend Sunset. Lockdown fired his gun at Wheelie, causing him screamed in pain. He flew off and landed on Sideswipe's chest. Wheelie was damaged hard. "Ow... That really hurt...."

Sunset gasped in horror, "Wheelie!"

Sunset run over to help her friend. She is horrified that Lockdown would shoot Wheelie like that. How could he do that to him?!

"Step aside...." Lockdown orders, pointing his weapon at the defying Sunset. He isn't aware to shoot the girl should she keep on defying him.

Sunset however stood her friend, putting her arms up into the arms while saying, "Never. I won't let you hurt him or his friend."

"What could a Human like you do? All you did is treat them as if they are machines. You don't need them. You have nothing."

"She has us! All of us!" Twilight exclaims as she and her friends came and stood up against Lockdown and his Cemetery Wind.

"As long as she has us, we're willing to help her stand up against you bullies!" Rainbow exclaims, raising her fists into the air.

"Right, yew are worst as 'de Decepticons!" Applejack exclaims sternly at the enemies.

"You are ruffians who should've been arrested for the crimes against innocent robots and humans." Rarity said with a deep frown at Cemetery Wind. "I'm disgusted to hear as to how far you are willing to go!"

"Yeah! You guys are noooooo fun at all!" Pinkie exclaims with a scoff. "You are party killers, big time!"

"Yeah!" The CMC exclaims, linking arms and preparing to fight even though it means their lives.

"As long as Sunset has us, she has everything." Fluttershy said furiously. "We won't move!"

"Neither will I." Ben remarks, crossing his arms in determination.

"And me either." Flash said as he takes Sunset by the hand, making her smile a bit. Despite what she did to him before, the boy is willing to stand by her side.

"And me too." Starlight comments as Spike and Phobos appears, barking furiously at Lockdown and his troops. "Even dogs hate you."

Lockdown looks...rather amused than anger by the defiance of the humans. The robot gave out a cruel laugh while speaking, "Friends till the end. All for nothing. Then you'll die together!"

"Stand down now!" A voice spoke from out of nowhere. Now who is it?

Before he or his troops could do anything, some of Cemetery Wind soldiers got blasted and shot to their deaths. Thirteen armored and masked black warriors jumped and landed on the ground before them. Unknown to everyone, these folks are the disguised Shadow Dragon and his troops, determined to help out.

Shadow Dragon spoke out in a disguise voice to Lockdown and his troops, "We are the Dragon Strike Force. Attacking the innocents and allies are not acceptable. By the Order by Secretary of United States, stand down!"

A Cemetery Wind soldier protests in shock, "What is the meaning of this?! Out of our way! We have our duty to perform!"

The Cemetery Wind soldiers were about to fire. But then Shorty fired his Twin Blasters at them. Both Blazefist and Aquastroke fired their Phoenix Flames in knocking them off. Saber Dragoon armed with his twin swords in knock his enemies off. Burnblast and Lightningblade launched their Lightning Dragoon Attacks at their enemies. Laxtinct was in stone and hardened armor as he punched and knocked them out. Tailtech fired his a typhoon Blaster and Icy fired her Frozen Beam at them. Flare Tiger charged in and battled against them hard and quick. Shadow Dragon placed his blade in front of Cemetery Wind Captain and held a grenade. In short, these bums don't have a chance and had fallen easily.

"Leave now... Or be perished together. And you should know my reputation well. I don't joke on my life or battle." Shadow Dragon said sternly. He will risk his own life to help even his brother in law if need be.

Lockdown and his minions remained quiet while glaring at the Dragon Strike Force, Main Six and others. They were about to attack at their enemies when the familiar voice of Attinger came from Lockdown's communicator, "Lockdown, we've found Optimus Prime and his army! They're escaping Chicago! I've sent both Galvatron and Stinger after them. Stop them! Now's your chance."

Lockdown groans but smiles a bit. Looks like a change of pace is here.

"Lucky for me... I've got a real bounty to retrieve. Keep this trash for now..." Lockdown said sternly to the humans. Next time though, no one will be lucky.

Lockdown and his minions turned and headed off at once. Everyone sighed in relief. Looks like for once, Attinger did the right thing...but Optimus Prime and his pals may not be lucky.

Shadow Dragon turns to the group, speaking in disguised voice, "Is everyone alright?"

"Yeah, we're fine." Twilight said, brushing her hair in relief. She and Ben knew who these guys really are...but for the sake of their mission, not one of them will say a word...for now.

"Yeah, good thing you show up when you did." Starlight remarks with a smile. "We would've been dead."

"But friends to the end anyway." Dinky said, chuckling uneasily.

Sunset looks at her friends, both of them are seriously harmed. She sighs sadly, "Sideswipe... Wheelie... Both of them..."

Shorty put a hand on her shoulder, speaking to Sunset in an assuring tone of voice, "Don't worry. We'll help and fix them both. Don't worry, the Secretary will keep them safe as he did for the Autobots. Leave it to the War Phoenix Army and us to help him."

"Wait, are yew sure?" Applejack ask in concern by the newcomers. "Sounds odd fer y'all 'ta show up like 'dat."

"Can we be sure to trust our robot friends to the likes of you people," Scootaloo said skeptically.

Twilight spoke up at this point, "Don't worry, they can be trusted." She can trust that Shadow Dragon and his group will get Wheelie and Sideswipe to safety and away from Attinger's forces.

Ben nodded his head in agreement, adding, "They're right. Don't worry, they'll be fine. What about Boris and his gang?"

"Since they revealed the clients they were working for, they'll be sent for investigation and military discipline until they learn to control their attitude." Shadow Dragon said sternly. He will make sure that Boris and his goons get what's coming to them, one way or another. And hopefully the mystery involving Sombra and Chrysalis will be revealed.

"I understand. And thanks..."

"Not a problem. Get the truth..."

As Laxtinct picks up the damaged Wheelie, the robot groans, giving a smile to Sunset while saying, "I'll be fine.... Just take care.... Be strong, Sunset..."

"Thanks, kids..." Sideswipe said as Shorty and the others work on getting him transport to get him off the battle field.

Sunset looks down in sadness. Her friends came over, hugging and comforting Sunset. She just gained some new friends...and what happened today cost her them...maybe for good this time...

----------

Things are slowly getting back to normal...though for Sunset, things are getting a bit worst. The students found out that she was keeping Wheelie and hate her for the fact that Boris and Cemetery Wind attacked their school, which makes Sunset suspicious to them. 

Of course, the Main Six and Ben defended her, along with the Crusaders, insisting that she defended and protected the Autobots from corrupted black ops. They agreed to give her a chance. Sunset sighed in relief as the Main Six, the Crusaders, Flash and her agreed to tell Twilight, Ben, Nyx and Starlightthe truth about the event, AKA the last Fall Formal. 

Twilight, Ben, Nyx and Starlight are surprised to hear that their doppelgangers (except for Starlight's) are ponies from another universe! Maybe they aren't aliens after all, especially since the newcomers came to this world to get the crown back from Sunset. Hopefully this is enough to change Azure's mind about invading Equestria.

Of course, when all is said and enough, the four exchange students ended up getting most of the credit for stopping Boris, which still didn't give Sunset much respect at all.

But on the plus side, at least she's getting there...

--------------

As Boris and his gang were sent off to the interrogation chamber, the gunshot was sounded. They all looked worry and scared. The small window hole opened revealing a face...belonging to a man named Drake.

"Come with me, Boris. You all going to get to meet our great leader of the Dark Terrorists." Drake said with a cruel smile to Boris. "You want power? You'll get them..."

Boris hesitates then gave out a cruel smirk. His last chance ended badly...this time, there won't be any foul-ups.

---------------

Twilight reported to what she had learned to Azure Phoenix and Shadow Dragon. Ben was a bit shocked to find out that his girlfriend is reporting to Azure Phoenix...but at least it makes him feel better when he told her that Shadow Dragon has asked him to do the same thing.

"Well..." Twilight ask Azure, getting concerned for what decision Azure will be making.

Azure pauses then spoke up, "You did well... Well done. However, if those ponies return to this domain again, I wish to speak with her and them personally. I want to match yours, and Wheelie's with her story..."

"Yes, sir. But you won't start a war, right?"

Azure shook his head while stating to his student, "No... I want to know them..."

Twilight and Ben sighs in relief. Looks like Azure did change his mind after all. Hopefully his mind will stay that way in case the ponies were to come back at some point.

"Then, what about Wheelie and Sideswipe? Will they be alright?" Ben ask Azure seriously, hoping that Wheelie and Sideswipe are safe and sound.

"It might take some times to repair them... But for not, Joshua request my assistance. He said that Galvatron is having some glitches. And I need your help." Shorty said to Ben and Twilight. Galvatron appears to be having...problems. "Something is wrong..."

"Understood." Twilight said in concern. She suspects something off with that robot for some time now.

"Then, after that - we can go back to our school." Ben said with a smile. He can't wait to continue attending school here again once his mission is over.

Shadow Dragon however shakes his head, dashing Ben's hopes as he said, "I'm sorry, Ben. You and Twilight will return to Crystal Prep School now. Your mission is done."

The two can't believe what they're hearing. Twilight and Ben are having great time, getting to know their new friends and the school of Canterlot High. And now? They gotta leave them? It's not fair!

"But-!" Twilight begins to protest.

Azure however cuts her off, saying, "Until I'm truly certain that I can trust these visitors, all of you are meant to return to your school. But you'll visit them only."

"Understood..." Twilight and Ben said with sighs while shaking their heads.

It will be difficult, explaining to their new friends that they must now remember to their old school. It's not fair. Even Ben felt that Azure and Shadow Dragon's decisions are unfair, even to him.

Those two shouldn't control his life, no one should. It's time for Ben to do what he should've done in the first place.

---------

Twilight, Ben, Nyx and Starlight asked their friends to come to Principal Celestia's office. They got an announcement to make which could decide the four's friendship with their new friends forever.

Twilight comment, "This has, indeed, been an exciting few months, but the exchange program time period is over and now we must return to Crystal Prep. We'll write and call at every opportunity though."

"You guys are leaving?" Pinkie ask in shock and sadness.

"Awww, we were getting to like having you all around." Sweetie said in sadness, feeling sad that Nyx will be going for good.

"I know, I know, but our transfer to here was only for a few months." Starlight said seriously, shaking his head in regret. "We will miss you once our vacation elsewhere is over."

"Well, that won't be the case for most of you." Celestia said with a mysterious smile. Everyone but Ben, Luna and Nyx are pondering what she's on about. "I took a call to Crystal Prep, call in some favors."

"So what does that mean?" Sunset ask the principal curiously.

"My son Ben will attending Canterlot High after he gets back from his vacation, along with Nyx and Starlight."

Most of the kids, especially a shocked Twilight, are surprised to hear this. Then they cheers on wildly...except for Twilight who looks confused. This permanent transfer seem to come from out of nowhere.

"All right! Looks like you can stay, Nyxie!" Pipsqueak exclaims, nudging the girl a bit.

"Yeah, that's great." Nyx said, giving out an awkward smile. Looks like her friendship with the CMC is closer than ever.

"Wait, what about Twilight?" Sunset ask in surprise, realizing that Twilight wasn't mentioned in the last part of what Celestia said.

Luna sighs, shaking her head while saying, "Principal Celestia tried to get Twilight here...but sadly, Crystal Prep would only agree for Ben, Nyx and Starlight to stay on at Canterlot High."

"But..."

"It's okay, it's all right, I will be okay, girls." Twilight said, giving a sad look while rubbing the back of her head. "I will survive."

"Well...at least let's give a "Farewell Party", my treat!" Pinkie exclaims, trying to be brave in light of Twilight no longer coming here.

"You girls and guy go away, we will catch up." Nyx said to the others with a smile.

Most of the group nods, speaking as they head off, leaving Ben and Nyx with Celestia and Luna. They waited until the others are out of earshot.

Celestia sighs, sitting back in her chair while crossing her arms, "It's a good thing you two told us what Ben and Twilight were up to. I am shocked that my ex-husband asked you and Twilight to try to pry information from them about Equestria."

"I know...I hate to tell you behind Azure's back, but I don't want to leave my friends." Ben remarks with a sigh. The boy and Nyx told Ben's mother and aunt about what Azure Phoenix and Shadow Dragon was up to involving Ben and Twilight. "Also...I had enough of Azure and Shadow Dragon telling me how to do my life. I am my own man, mom, and Azure isn't my dad."

"I'm glad to hear that, son."

"I just wish you would've gotten Twilight to stay though. It's hard to see more of her after we get back from our "vacation"."

"Well, I consider it karma, her doing this behind everyone's back, especially mine." Nyx said, still upset by the fact of what her sister just did. "I thought she told me everything."

"She is just doing what she was asked to do, Nyx, that's all. You will learn to trust her again. For now, we can hope fate and friendship will lead Twilight back to Canterlot High in the near future." Celestia said, putting her arms together. "And nothing else happens before that can."

Celestia has no idea how wrong her hopes are, especially with the showcase coming up!

Chapter 5: Rainbow Rocks Aftermath


Back in the present, as the story was wrapped up in the school yard, Nyx giggles, "Wow, that was...wow."

"Yeah, Azure Phoenix was ticked when he found out what mom did...and even tried to order me to stay as I was told. I told him off." Ben remarks with a scoff.

"You told off Azure Phoenix?" Sunset ask Ben in surprise.

"That was one confrontation I should've had with him a long time ago. I was tired of him forcing me to do his wishes. I am my own man now and he isn't my dad, that's all. He threatened to arrest me for treason after I walked away...but never got around to it."

"Well, luckily for us, the events afterwards made it not so." Twilight said with a smile. She may no longer attending Canterlot High ever since the girl went back to Crystal Prep, but the girl still visits whenever she can and is always welcomed there.

"Boy, those were some strange times those 4 chapters back...or should it be 3 & a half? I lost track a bit." Pinkie Pie replied off to randomly state this fourth wall breaking habit that earn attention on her.

"And as always Pinkie Pie, you are so random." Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes in seeing their friend was being random.

"Still, what happened back then was nothing compared to what we came across during the Battle of the Bands." Rarity stated off in recalling that even from what they went through with Boris's Decepticon rampage act was nothing compared to when the Dazzlings came to town which was more....about magic than science & technology.

"Yep, who de thought next problem we get were magic Sirens fro' Equestria in de Pony Universe?" Applejack nods off in honestly speaking that what they face next was something far out of it.

"Oh my, yes....and while Pony Twilight did help in coming to our aid, there were still a lot of other problems." Fluttershy meekly yelps in just remembering that event was kinda surprising, especially when the Siren thing was just ONE of many other problems that came after.

"Do you mean not knowing some of the teachers were actual government agents, even if they were close friends or like family members to you all? And who thought I and the others from a pony universe version of this world were hostile aliens?" Sunset pointed off in knowing that the Dragon Strike Force along with Azure Phoenix thought she, Ex-She Demon villain, and more wanted to bring terror to the human world. "Hugh...and if that wasn't enough, they even would have risk the safety of the rest of the students at the finals if the Dazzlings weren't stop in time." She sighs off to say this next part in how close things got that the government would have brought about some 'minor' causalities of the students under a hypnotic control to save millions more, that was too much stress.

"I was still very shock that you all saved us, but I was even more surprised when other villains came & turn our whole school into World War 3! Dark Terrorists, Decepticons, even that villain Fafnir came from the same pony universe to terrorize & wipe us out." Flash Sentry stated in how things really got serious when the largest gathering of evil villains from this world to the next universe were wrecking the whole school.

"Which is a lucky moment the guy didn't and that surprise stunt Pony Ben did to even how Unity & Sunset Shimmer worked together took down that Dragon when not even a whole army or Transformers could!" Pinkamena pops in to say this in catching many by surprise, the other Pinkie Pie & allied friend of theirs also saw everything that happened.

"At least the worse of it is over, now the Rainbooms are seen as good celebs to the whole school. I'm just glad that Azure Phoenix won't be hassling anyone here of being dangerous aliens wanting to wipe out the human kind." Golden Heart stated off in also appearing near the gang in knowing how things have gotten better now & everything is alright.

"Well, if trouble should come around again, I think we know how to handle it!" Rainbow Dash boasted a bit, making her friends chuckle by her boasting again.

"Well that is also up to debate, cause now there is gonna be a THIRD Equestria Girls film & something of a TV Series, so there is no telling WHAT happens in the future!" Pinkie Pie broke the major fourth wall again.

"And yet again, I say....you are so random, Pinkie Pie." Rainbow Dash sighs off to say this in seeing her pink friend make some weird claim out of nowhere.

"What happen to Sombra and Chrysalis? I haven't seen them since the incident." Twilight said, remembering that Sombra and Chrysalis disappeared right after the incident with Boris, Lockdown and Cemetery Wind.

"They came back a while after the Dazzlings event. Claiming they were on vacation." Rarity said thoughtfully. "Sounds suspicious to me."

"Eyup, especially when our fellow students got scared around Sombra fer some reason." Apple Bloom comments with a suspicious frown.

"Don't get me started on Chrysalis." Starlight said, sighing while shaking his head.

"By the way, what did you and Shorty learn about Galvatron's malfunction?" Rarity ask Twilight curiously, reminding her friend of the malfunction involving Galvatron.

Applejack nodded as she spoke, "Fro' what Ah heard fro' Mr. Joyce, he said that Galavatron had his own mind; 'Dat's shocking..."

Twilight gulps, preparing for the worst. The Crystal Prep student explains, "It is true. Shorty and I asked for more sample and system from his system. We run some cheap up and we found that his transformation and some of his nanotechnology are actually Megatron's Cybertronian DNA."

"What?!" Sweetie gasps in shock upon hearing that name.

"Megatron? As in the leader of those Decepticon creeps?" Vinyl Scratch ask, having kept quiet the whole time until now.

"We're talking about the major bad guy besides Sentinel Prime, right?" Fluttershy ask, getting scared.

"The one who tried to destroy humanity three times before?" Flash ask Twilight in shock and worry.

Twilight sighed, "That's right, everyone. Megatron was alive from the start. He's been manipulating KSI too to get the Seed."

"Well...luckily for us, he failed just like he and his pals failed the last time." Ben said as the others sighed in relief.

"Good thing Flare Tiger send for Optimus Prime here when she did." Golden Heart said, recalling Optimus's arrival was made thanks to help from Flare Tiger. "Hate to see what happened otherwise."

"Hopefully those Decepticon creeps would go away for a long time!" Pinkie exclaims, sitting back in her chair with a frown.

"Twilight... Are Wheelie and Sideswipe...Are they alright? I haven't heard of them since that day..." Sunset said to Twilight in concern. She fears the worst for her two robot friends for a long time.

Twilight smiles, putting a hand on Sunset's shoulder as she explains, "They're both alright. And they all can't wait to see you again. They just need to go through some training and walking. They had a hard time to get over it."

Sunset sighed, relieved to hear that the two Autobots are safe, "I'm glad to hear that. I can't wait to see them again."

"Right, yeah." Most of the group who are good friends to the robots said in agreement.

"So what shall we do next?" Nyx ask the others curiously. "After school I mean..."

"Yeah, we just went through one cool story!" Scootaloo exclaims, feeling like flying though she can't. "How about we hang out later?"

"Isn't 'dat 'de idea?" Apple Bloom ask Scootaloo in amusement.

Twilight smiled as she suggests, "Why don't we visit our friends and have our time together? It's been while we haven't seen them."

"Oh yes. It's good to see them again after a while." Rarity said in agreement with the idea.

"Yes. We want to see how they're doing since they took some time off." Rainbow said with a smirk on her face. Shadow Dragon and his group decided to take some time off after the events and their mission is over.

"May as well catch up with them." Nyx said with a nod, giving a suspicious look towards her sister. Although the suspicions and paranoid nature of Azure Phoenix is over, Nyx is still upset by the fact that her sister tried to lie and pry information from her friends.

"Say, you guys wanna practice a bit during free period or after school?" Sunset Shimmer asked off in wondering if her friends here would like to jam a bit while playing their music.

"Why that would be lovely darling." Rarity smiled off in thinking that was a swell idea.

"Yep, probably so, cause when we jam..." Applejack nods off in starting off to say something, but...

"We get all magical-like & get pony ears, tails & wings to really feel the magic of music." Pinkie Pie cuts in to state how when they play their instruments, they get to light up with a lot of magical transformation and stuff...

"Oh yes, I like it very much." Fluttershy smiled off a bit in feeling that was very nice.

"Maybe me & my band could come around, we can probably jam together...if, that's okay with you girls." Flash Sentry offered off this idea, bit was nervous if he would be accepted or not.

"In simple words to express here Flash, sure. We like that." Sunset Shimmer smiled off to say this to her guy as their old love from before has been relit after the Battle of the Bands fiasco.

"Great, see you later." Flash Sentry smiled off to say this in feeling like he'll see the gang around.

With that, everyone heads on off to their own respective class periods that were starting just from the ringing of the school bell. Today was likely gonna be another day for all of the students of Canterlot High. Hopefully, things will be like any average high school, that is....if nothing goes wrong...but hey, in school...there are always some form of...troublemakers....

"Golden Heart, can I ask...where were you & Pinkamena during the time Boris caused trouble to the point of stealing a military Transformer Armor Suit?" Sunset Shimmer asked off something in feeling something was bugging the girl in where Golden Heart & Pinkamena were when Boris tried to cause a big scene before he was sent to military school.

"My sister, Pinkamena, was competing in a Karaoke Competition down town. And so we were a bit distracted, but she wanted practice in case she wanted to join the Music Festival." Goldie explained in where they were that they weren't around when trouble came out of nowhere.

"But in the end, I won it all!" Pinkamena smiled off to say in holding her trophy as proof she won.

"I...see." Sunset Shimmer slightly raised her eyebrows in seeing how the pink girl was happy in still winning such a competition in the end.

"But don't worry Sunset Shimmer, if there's trouble, we'll be near to help you out of a jam!" Pinkamena expressed out that if anything does occur, then they'll be around to lean a hand.

"But pretty much, you’re doing a lot better, now you’re no longer the most hated girl in school since the Battle of the Bands!" Goldie smiled off in stating how the girl is having a much easier time fitting in, everyone's practically forgotten Sunset the She-Demon from the Fall Formal to see Sunset the Rising Sun Heroine from the Battle of the Bands.

"I suppose it has its ups & downs." Sunset Shimmer shrug off lightly to smile over such a thing that helped her out.

"Well, we better be going, good luck & see yah!" Pinkamena smiled off to say this before skipping off with her trophy in hand still.

"Sis, wait....that's where the wet floor sign is!" Goldie called out in warning his sister to not run or have something block her view as he rushed off to make sure she didn't get hurt.

Sunset Shimmer let off a little giggle, feeling glad to see more friends she's made feel like making her feel at ease while the girl continues across the hallway.

-----------------------

The scene begins to change togethrs where we find the Rainbooms station by what looked like a different farm area completely different from Sweet Apple Acres. There were a few things around here along with animals running around.

“Okay everyone, I need some help growing my crops, picking some supplies at the stores, & working on the farm while raising animals. Think you can handle this?” Saber Dragoon issued off the workload he’s got around that he needs help with from the gang.

“Heh, yer talking’ ta de right girl, Ah done plenty o' 'dis on mah farm!” Applejack proudly was stating this here fact that being raised on a farm has given her quite the skills to pay the bills.

“I suppose I can offer aid in choosing the ‘right’ supplies that will work wonders & looks lovely.” Rarity stated to say this in thinking she might know how to help get the right tools & supplies, etc.

“I can help pick up the crops, it’ll be one, two, three,” Rainbow Dash smiled off in stating this factor of what she can be doing to help out.

“Oh, I can help work around the farm house….maybe even decorate it for a party celebration when we’re done.” Pinkie Pie smiled fourth in stating this idea of what she’ll help by doing while making party plans.

“Well I’m great with animals, so I’ll gladly help in taking care of them.” Fluttershy smiled off to say this in knowing where she like to help out the most.

“I expect that much.” Saber Dragoon replied off in stating that he wants to at least make sure things are worked out okay for him.

“So are you gonna help us out to, Saber Dragoon?” Sunset Shimmer asked off in wondering if this guy was gonna help them out.

“Wish I could, but I’ve been asked to help out someone out of town & won’t be back till tonight, you kids can relax here & help yourselves to whatever picked crops you got done.” Saber Dragoon shrug off to say this that he’s gotta be somewhere else & needs help.

“Thanks, we’ll try to not be too greedy.” Sunset Shimmer responded to the kind person in being a bit generous to them.

“It’s the least I can do, after what….eh, you experienced when we held you captive & interrogated you.” Saber Dragoon shrug off to say this much from knowing a small price to pay up from having locked these good kids up in a prison cell…once.

“It’s all under the bridge now, but thanks all the same.” Sunset Shimmer replied off to mention this about letting go of that memory during the Dazzlings first act.

“Alright, good luck now.” Saber Dragoon replied off in wishing this group the best of luck now while preparing to head on off.

Now as Saber Dragoon left, everyone was getting quick to work around the farm to help the guy’s workload of little chores he left around for them. The Rainbooms would have their work cut out for them, but a little teamwork never hurt tholepin get the job done, etc.

----------------

We suddenly find ourselves watching Canterlot High’s Soccer field outside the school. As there was a soccer match of Rainbow Dash & Aquastroke facing off against Blazefist, Ben Mare & Flash Sentry. They were kicking the ball, time was ticking from each one of them scoring a point. The rest of the Rainbow & friends sat on the benches to watch & cheer for those that they want to see them win.

“Go Rainbow Dash!” Scootaloo cheered forth in watching her idol go.

“Go Aqua!” Apple Bloom also cheered for the other girl on the team.

“You can do it!” Sweetie Belle cheered from both girls to do their best here.

“Look, Blazefist & his team are stealing the ball!” Pinkie Pie pointed out as the boys took the girls' soccer ball.

“Oh my, but it looks like the others are going after them.” Fluttershy yelps a bit in seeing that the others are going around to try to corner the boys.

“Come on Ben, keep it together!” Twilight cheered for her love to keep up the fast pace.

“Keep it together there Flash!” Sunset Shimmer stated in wanting the guy she likes do well too.

“Boy, can’t tell wha will happen, de scores tie.” Applejack stated off in knowing this will be a close call here.

“This next shot will decide the game.” Goldie issued off in knowing that this will be a close call now.

Soon we see that Rainbow swipe the ball from Ben’s legs, then dribbled it pass Flash & Blazefist before she made a long shot kick. That move shot right through the defenseless goal, as it went in, making the score count just as time was up.

“Goal! Team Rainbow Wins!” Pinkamena cheered off to say this in making the score 30 RainAqua & 29 BurnBenFlash.

“Hooray!” Nyx cheered for this while Spike & Phobos barked for joy.

“Nice work Rainbow Dash.” Aqua smiled off in which the girls did a high-five at this moment.

“Just doing what you helped me to be…awesome!” Rainbow Dash smiled off in admitting that she’s awesome with the right help.

“Well, even two on three, at least it was a fair game.” Ben shrug off to say this in seeing how things went for them in the game.

“Yeah, but remind me again why you & Aqua wanted us to go through this again.” Flash replied back while being curious to question this game that they got dragged into.

“Well its basic training exercise…a little build-up to help your legs when you need a good moment to run off. Whether you’re in a hurry, or running from something chasing you.” Blazefist issued off in stating how this was to help anyone that was physically fit to be in good running condition if they are met with trouble.

“When are we not?” Both Flash & Ben questioned off to say when they are not on the run from danger.

This caused a little laughter moment from the guys to start laughing it out before the rest of the others decided to join in after the game was over. There, they were talking about how they liked what they saw, how it was a close match, & a bunch of other stuff…

---------------

The scene quickly begins to show us where by an animal shelter place, loads of animals are seen that need some tender love & care. Right at the moment, the Rainbooms are shown helping to get some of their student friends to participate in helping out. Even more amazing, Terrorcreep in seen helping from the shadows since, well…the guy’s a vampire & prefers to not be in the sunlight.

“Thank you ever so much for your support.” Rarity smiled off to say this to more of the students showing up to help be supporters or volunteers for a good cause.

“Yep, an’ if ye wanna help out more, we need volunteers fro' fellow students ta get more funds in helping’ de animals.” Applejack nods off to simply say this in seeing how well they are bringing in the good gold here.

“Thanks for helping me on such a timely need Fluttershy, it’s always hard doing this by day & harder when at night, folks are sleeping.” Terrorcreep stated off in thanking the shy girl by the register as he was working in a darker spot with a bit more shade.

“Anytime Terrorcreep, after all…I’ve always loved helping animals.” Fluttershy smiled off to say this about what she does best.

“Yes, that is true. It’s hard getting supporters when they see me, they run the other way.” Terrorcreep nods off to say in knowing the girl has a thing for helping animals & if he did this alone, others freak out.

“And you really have been a really kind father figure to me, despite your vampire appearance that scared me a little when I was little.” Fluttershy stated to say in how much this guy has helped her out when she was small.

“I guess after being around so long, you got over being scared of him, hugh Fluttershy?” Pinkie Pie pops in to state how Fluttershy isn’t scared of Terrorcreep from his nice act towards the kind girl.

“You could say that…” Fluttershy nods off to say this about such a thing that went off.

“Good news Fluttershy, we just got ten more funds from our fellow students to help the animals here find good homes.” Twilight smiled off to issue the good news of their workload here of those wanting to help them out.

“Hopefully things can keep going as smooth as they can.” Sunset Shimmer stated off in seeing what they need to do in order to keep things on a steady flow.

“Well, I’m just glad you all could help me on such short notice.” Fluttershy smiled to say this in being glad her friends could help out in Terrorcreep’s hour of need, he’s like family to her.

“That’s what friends are there for.” Ben smiled off to say this in holding a big dog food bag.

“Right, now can you tell us where to put these large bags of dog food?” Flash asked off to say this as he wondered where to put the large bags the boys got.

Fluttershy nods in seeing that her friends needed some guidance, so the kind girl was gonna show them how to do it. Terrorcreep watched with a little smile in seeing how much more open the shy little girl he knew has grown…she’s got great friends now.

-----------------------------

The next scene to be seen was the gang making some orphanages smile by doing some funny routines to help lighten the spirit. The Rainbooms were either teaching the children some nice arts & crafts or playing games which Pinkie Pie was really partying so much to make the kids smile extra much.

“Heheh, man…you guys are a major save on my bacon!” Laxtinct let off a little laugh in seeing how things were going so far here.

“Oh course, ye think we let some tikes be as bored as nails?” Applejack pointed off that they never let something make kids feel blue when they outta be having fun & smiling.

“Especially when hanging out with the Rainbooms boost their mood when we play for them.” Rainbow Dash smiled off in proudly stating how they helped did a major concert performance that helped out.

“I think it’s a lovely time to help the little darlings.” Rarity smiled in feeling that helping these orphanage children was a fine way to help them in times of need.

“Hehe-Hooooo-doggy….ye got dat right! I’m glad I offered ta help!” Hoboken Joe was seen laughing it up in carrying some boxes over that were gonna be used to unpack some stuff for the kids later.

“Um, I hope you don’t mind me asking…why did you want to come here,” Fluttershy turn to ask Laxtinct this puzzling question here.

“Well, most of them children here lost their parents when the issue of the Transformers came up, especially during the invasion…they haven’t had much smiles after that.” Laxtinct look down in sadly stating how many of these orphanage kids lost their parents during a Deception invasion event, etc.

“We’re sorry to hear that.” Twilight stated in feeling sad to have heard this, much stuff had occurred back then.

“But, it looks like Pinkie Pie is helping them feel alive again.” Sunset Shimmer smiled to look on the positive side of things.

“Oh course I can!” Pinkie Pie pops in to happily agree on the comment there.

“Waugh!” The girls yelped in being caught by surprise by their random friend.

“I gain the inspiration to make everyone happy & smile, it’s my life’s passion to express.” Pinkie Pie pointed out to explain how she got to be who she is.

“Well, that sounds like something Pinkie Pie would say.” Ben nods off to quote in having heard this from the pink girl’s mouth.

“Maybe a few donated stuff to the orphanage will help them get by better too.” Flash stated in thinking how what they are doing can be very helpful.

“Ye kids won’t have ta worry…” Hoboken Joe spoke off to join the gang in their conversation here. “I happen ta know a guy, who knows another guy, whose cousin works in de government, whose sister twice remove, can get word in ta help these sprouts grow.” He pointed off that he can use some connections to help this place so the kids here will be more happier.

“Man, even after retirement, you still have connections from when you were in the secret service.” Laxtinct replied off surprise in seeing an Ex-Agent who work under Azure Phoenix, still had some old connections even after the guy left the military.

“Sometimes, ye never know wha ye may need when a certain time fer it comes up.” Hoboken Joe smiled off proudly in saying that having connections, can always be a good thing when one last expects it.

That soon caused many of the gang here to laugh it up in feeling a strong boost in themselves today as Pinkie Pie hops back in to help perform party & comical stunts to make the children smile.

----

Now we enter a strange place in a building where there were many students dress in strange garbs, as if reliving the china dynasty hour, etc.

“Once more, from the top!” Lightningblade instructed those to follow through with the right course.

The students were seen practicing battle cries as they swung down their kendo in a practicing motion. And they continued to repeat that step with extra thrust work on their part.

“Good, good, you’re showing good form in your kendo thrust work.” Lightningblade stated off in seeing how well the group was able to pull off what they needed to do.

“We’re glad you all managed to help us get some students to join this club, kendo is another skill to help give one defense.” Burnblast smiled off to the Rainbooms in seeing that from their aid, they will help give those that join a better aid in life.

“Glad we could help, after fighting against She-Demons & Sirens, plus Dark Terrorist & Decepticons, along with an evil freak of evil, we need some that won’t be defenseless.” Rainbow Dash replied off in stating how it be nice to have some that will be more defendable against any other evil threats by the smallest of means.

“Now Rainbow, ye know as well as de rest o' us, our class mates aren’t fit ta fight wha they can’t stop dat is out o' their league.” Applejack lectured off in knowing the serious case that if something is too tough, their class mates shouldn’t risk facing it.

“I agree, it does seem…well, hard to handle when you aren’t much a fighter.” Fluttershy meekly commented on knowing that such things can be dangerous to those that are more lovers than fighters.

“But, having a little surprise can come in handy too.” Pinkie Pie smiled off to say this to bounce around.

“Well, if any of you are interested.” Burnblast stated that those that are interested can also learn kendo art skills too.

“Um, I think we’re good. But, we’ll let you know if we come across it another time.” Sunset stated to say this in knowing that kendo is probably not their thing.

“Right now, we’re just here to help point out ways to avoid an enemy attack even if you aren’t armed.” Twilight explained off the reason of why they are here & how that will help out in its own way.

“Well, if they are armed, then so can I!” Ben stated to say in holding nearly kendo sword stick.

“You and me both Ben, lets help train these guys.” Flash Sentry smiled off to say in grabbing a kendo sword stick to also help train the new club members.

Now Lightningblade & Burnblast got ready to have the join students learning kendo, to face the Rainbow gang. As the scene fades with many flash moments of how the gang fair off with using wits & their special talents to make even the normal students…see they have a long way to go.

----------------

“Ah gotta admit, ah was surprise by when ye wanna have fun with me & my family.” Flare Tiger spoke off in stating this factor about having learn of what the gang was doing here.

“Well, we never did get to see much of your family here.” Twilight rub the back of her head in stating this fact here.

“Well these are Shadow Cat, Flower Dog, & my adopted daughter, Iris Heart Shield.” Flare Tiger pointed to those that are here, the mentioned name ones are a part of her family. And they look like human versions of the pony figures of the ones back in Equestria too.

“Well it’s a pleasure ta meet ya!” Applejack proudly stated to where the gang shook hands with new faces.

“Yep, I’m sure you heard of the Rainbooms!” Rainbow Dash proudly exclaimed in how they are a famous band.

“Glad to meet yah.” Iris Heart Shield smiled off in being glad to meet new friends.

“We’re glad to meet you too.” Nyx replied off in being happy to meet another friendly face.

“Who’s up for a game of UNO,” Pinkie Pie shouted off in having a card pack in her hands that they can play.

“Oh, I like to try!” Flower Dog smiled of in loving that game.

“Count me in!” Shadow Cat replied off in also liking to join in on the fun.

Soon moments pass as everyone was sat at the table, playing a nice friendly game of UNO. Course there were much chit-chatting, so it’s hard to know what’s going on.

“Tell us Flare Tiger darling, how did you know about the portal & about ponies?” Rarity asked off a good question that was on a lot of their mind.

“Well, cause of how ah can travel from place to place, and ah brought my family here with me…” Flare Tiger pointed off in easily issuing this explanation without delay at all.

“You crossed over here, but the portal only appears every 2.5 years on a full moon?” Sunset Shimmer asked off in being puzzled in how such a thing was possible.

“Ah got a power of Dimensions, so ah can travel between them.” Flare Tiger pointed of in what her element is that she can do just that.

“Well that certainly explains a lot.” Flash stated to say in raising an eyebrow in having heard this.

“Did you ever tell Azure Phoenix about this?” Ben raised an eyebrow in pondering how Azure Phoenix took such news that one of his own units, came from another worldly dimension.

“Nope! Thought it best ta not say ah was from a place he wanted ta destroy. But at least now, ah don’t have ta hid it since he knows ye be good.” Flare Tiger stated that she never told her limitary commander of such a thing, but now with such a crisis over, maybe things have calm a bit down now.

“Boy are we ever glad of that.” Sunset Shimmer sighed to say this with a smile across her face.

Now the group continues to play their nice fun game of UNO Cards. As many things could be done in who would win & who be done first….it was about the most exciting thing going on.

--------------------

Now we find what looks like a cross breed of a cute little bunny with the horn of a unicorn and it was…stuffed. As it turns out, the Rainbooms are with Tailtech & icy in a place with some building toy materials with this product they have out.

“Neat Toys!” Pinkie Pie smiled off to pick up the uni-bunny toys that seem to be the neatest toy look.

“I’m glad you like them, we’re trying to quickly get them into development.” Tailtech replied off to mention this in what they are hoping to achieve with a new toy.

“The only thing is, we need to know how an actual kid would feel playing with them.” Icy stated to say this in holding these Uni-Bunnies for the rest to study.

“Is dat there why ye asked we bring mah sister & her friends?” Applejack asked off in seeing the CMC were holding the new toys, getting & feel & all that…

“Plus Pinkie Pie, considering her mind level, is near that to a kid at heart.” Rainbow Dash smiled off in seeing how Pinkie Pie was taking to playing with such a cute toy.

“Well, maybe it you put in some lovely fabric works, I think these toys would sell marvelously.” Rarity stated in thinking something like a cloth on these Uni-Bunnies could be good.

“Well, I like the little animal theme, that would make me wanna buy it…um, if I was still a little kid.” Fluttershy shyly & meekly spoke her thoughts about such a subject here.

“What if you gave them an instrument to play a song; that could help out,” Sunset Shimmer smiled off in making a good suggestion here to help out.

“I think Sunset Shimmer has a point, kids love music, it sounds good to them.” Twilight spoke off in liking the idea as it holds some merit to helping kids love music their toys play out.

“Oh course, adding some catchy tune might trigger their interest in the toy product.” Tailtech slapped his forehead in seeing what they need now.

“They could make a huge sellout. What are we waiting for, let’s get to work!” Icy smiled off in seeing this could help spread the Uni-Bunny productive line.

“Cutie Mark Crusader Toy Builders, away!” The CMC cheered forth in seeing that they get to help in a big project.

Now everyone was getting into the process of helping to build & design their own style of Uni-Bunnies. And trust us, each one was different, but made it intriguing for a name sellout of the product, etc.

--------------

The scene opens up towards a place where Shorty was working on a computer at the time, just as the Rainbow gang were seen coming in to visit the guy.

“Shorty, is our new music video ready?” Rarity asked off the guy in wondering of something that was to be made.

“Oh yes, it’s ready. It’s been dubbed: Life Is a Runaway!” Shorty responded off to say this in having the stuff ready, as he already ouches some numbers to begin something.

Now from the computer screen, the gang watch as something was beginning to play out. The background shows Rarity making some threads of a new wardrobe.

Rarity: Life is a runway (runway)
Listen, here's what it's all about
I tell you, life is a runway (runway)
Time to bring what's on the inside out

Rarity made a new musical & diamond dress that she was designing. She worn it up as she danced happily. She smiled while looking at the front.

Rarity: Into the light
Into the light

Rarity was seen walking out of her place, showing off her new flora look to which Bulk Biceps noticed. Bulk Biceps blushed and flattered by her dress and appearance.

Rarity: Life is a runway
When you see it my way
Take all the good inside
Make it beautiful

Rarity dance near a street lamp, then saw her reflect on a store window to envision herself on a model walkway. 

Rarity: Fashion is a way to start
Showing what's in your heart
Call it superficial
I call it irrefutable

Chorus: Oh-oh, oh wha-oh
Oh-oh, oh wha-oh
Oh-oh, oh wha-oh

Rarity was seen walking down the pavement, she was magically giving makeovers and dressed-ups to Derpy, then to Cheerilee, Lyra, & Sweetie Drops. They all dressed well in their dresses.

Rarity: Life is a runway
You can be the girl
That you want to be
With a little love
And some accessories (Life is a Runway)
Don't be scared to show you have
Personal style
Just go do your thing
You'll make everyone smile (Life is a Runway)

Then, another fantasy sequence shows they are strutting down a runaway by Roseluck & Amethyst Star. As six girls done in showing their dresses to the crowds, Rarity came to the front. 

Rarity: You can be the girl
That you want to be
With a little love
And some accessories (Life is a Runway)
Don't be scared to show you have
Personal style
Just go do your thing
You'll make everyone smile (Life is a Runway)

Now the scene shifts to where Rarity returns to reality in her ship, working on her next work-line of style dresses for fashion. The song finally ends in where Rarity was watching her customers come in to shop for all of her latest outfits with smiles that was where the music video ended.

Rarity: Life is a runway (runway)
I'll show you what it's all about
I tell you, life is a runway (runway)
Time to bring what's on the inside out
Into the light
Into the light
Into the light
Into the light
Into the light

“Gotta say Rarity, that was pretty awesome, if I do say so myself.” Rainbow Dash commented off in liking what she saw.

“Yep, looks like ye really got into it.” Applejack nodded off in also agreeing in having seen what they saw now.

“I thought it was fun!” Pinkie Pie stated off with a smile in having liked it too.

“Well, I thought it was nice of you to help others look…really nice.” Fluttershy meekly stated to smile in how Rarity helped the other girls look nice too.

“I think you did a great job Rarity.” Twilight smiled off in thinking what their friend got made was super.

“You all really mean it?” Rarity asked off in hoping that was all truffle responses from good friends.

“Sure, so when is your music video going viral?” Sunset Shimmer nodded off to say this while asking a question.

“Well Rarity wanted you to comment it before this video can attract an audience for shopping & dressing in her latest work.” Shorty pointed out in what Rarity wanted firstly before they went ahead on the work.

“But why go through all that?” Ben raised an eyebrow in why Rarity would go to so much trouble.

“Yah, I mean…everyone at school knows you have a talent for making fashionable wardrobes.” Flash Sentry nods off in stating the girl is already known for her great work in clothing designs.

“To put it simply, it’s not about just seeing the outfit to think you look good…you have to feel the urge to wear it to feel your best.” Rarity proudly explained her answer of reason for her friends to understand.

“Oh I get it, you want them to have confidence in themselves.” Nyx replied off in seeing what Rarity was saying now.

“Yes, that is why I had shorty help with the video & special effects.” Rarity nods off with a smile on her face in having gotten her message across.

“So, shall I post it on video now?” Shorty asked in awaiting if Rarity wants him to do this.

“Yes, you may proceed.” Rarity nods off in saying that Shorty may process now.

Soon Shorty quickly does a bit of typing work on the computer in uploading the music video dubbed “Life Is A Runaway” on Rarity’s home page of where folks can look at her work line of designs & style cloths, etc. Wasn’t long before the number of online audience viewers were coming in, and man was it pouring on…

-----------------

Later, the Main Six was hanging out with the others in the group.

"Got to say: we have lots of fun with what we did!" Pinkie exclaimed happily.

"I know." Ben said with a smile. "I can't wait to do more of it soon."

"It's sad that I'm the only one in the group at Crystal Prep still." Twilight said with a sigh, shaking her head. "It's sad not having Ben and my siblings around."

"Oh, well, I'm sure you will still see them." Fluttershy said to Twilight with a little smile.

"I thought I'd find you guys here." Iris said as she came over with her kids in tow. "Hey there. And hello to my favorite little brother." 

"Hey, Iris." Ben said, smiling as he hugged his half-sister. 

"Howdy, sugar cube!" Applejack exclaimed, greeting Iris.

"It's great to see you again." Sunset said with a smile. She hadn't forgotten how Iris helped stop Shadow Dragon in making the biggest mistake ever.

"Good to see you all." Twilight said, waving to the group with a smile.

"Great to see you, Uncle Ben." Sam said playfully while hugging his uncle. 

Ashley nodded as she ask, "What've you been up to?" 

"Doing fine, y'all." Applejack said with a slight smile.

"We have been doing work with the other members of Shadow Dragon's pals, did our music video, we did wonderfully." Rarity said, blushing her hair.

"Where's Lance?" Ben asked, noticing that one of his nephews wasn't around. "And what about Shadow Dragon? Is he okay? Has he been happy with his life?" 

Iris smiled as she answered, “For Lance, he had some band practice with his friends. And, Shadow Dragon, yes, he is. But I really wish Strikespell stop disturbing my honeymoon with him. He's so annoying."

Ben huffed in annoyance, "No surprise..." 

"Strikespell?" Pinkie asked, blinking in puzzlement. "Who's that?"

"I take it he isn't your friend." Sunset said in concern.

Ben sighed as he explained who Striekspell was, "Strikespell is my stepbrother, and Iris's half-brother. He's extremely a total jerk. At least, Azure treats me and my family better. I can't believe I'm gonna say this but I'd prefer him than that jerk." 

Iris sighed, shaking her head as she spoke, "Just ignore him. He's not worth it." 

"What were you doing here?" Ben asked his half-sister in wonder. 

Iris smiled as she motioned to a cage that she was holding with Dragoking the snake inside. The woman explained, "I'm here for Dragoking. He was taking some checkup and getting a blood test."

"Oh yes. I never forgot this little one." Fluttershy said, smiling at Dragonking while petting him.

"Yes, he is cute...in a way." Sunset said in a bewildered look.

"Hey, Dragoking..." Twilight said with a slow smile. Dragoking licked her face, making the girl giggle. "Thanks for your lick. I never thought that I used to be afraid of them, but now I'm liking them." 

"It's all thanks to Shadow Dragon. It happens to be same thing at Power Master's Universe." Pinkie said playfully, making her friends giggle. Their friend is so random. 

Dragoking licked on everyone's face while they commented on him. Iris then spoke up, "Oh, by the way, do any of you want to join my project?" 

"Project?" Rainbow asked, arching an eyebrow at this.

"What is this you speak of?" Pinkie asked with straws in her mouth for some odd reason.

“I'm making a special campaign for the world to see and be aware of it. I'm making a friendship campaign." Iris explained clearly to her brother in law and her friends. "And the way to do it is by making a music video. Who would be perfect to be part of it than you girls? So?"

The girls thought about what Iris explained to them. Making a music video as part of a friendship campaign sounds intriguing.

"Sure, why not?" Applejack asked Iris rhetorically with a smile.

"We can dig it." Rainbow remarked in agreement.

"Sounds like fun." Fluttershy said with a giggle.

"All right, we're all in." Twilight said to Iris with a nod, assuring her that the group are in.

Iris smiled as she responded, "Thank you. By tomorrow, we'll do some rehearsing and then make the music video. But above all, be ready for the event.” 

"Okie dokie lokie!" Pinkie said with a grin.

"Fine! We all better get jewels for the event." Rarity said with the others nodding happily. This will be one music video one will ever see.

----------------

At the local jewelry store, the Rainbooms, along with Twilight, Ben, Nyx, Flash and the CMC came in. The main players of Iris's future video looks for some jewels to wear for the video. It shouldn't take too long hopefully, right?

BOOM! Without warning, Boris and his gang charged and invaded the jewelry store. Twilight and her friends were in shock and worry. Looks like their mutated former classmates are out for revenge. They armed themselves in a ready to fight. Boris and his gang came out before them...but to their surprise, they ignored and flew off at once.

"Weird, it's like they don't know us." Fluttershy said in surprise, yet relief that Boris and his goons didn't seem to know them.

"But why did they come here and not steal anything?" Ben ask in concern. In the past, Boris would want to pound his head in...but they just came here as if to say "hi" and leave.

"And they acted like zombies without warning! WEIRD!" Pinkie exclaims. She's right, the way Boris, Boxco and Dum-Dum acted, it looks like they appear to be...zombies of sorts.

"I don't know. But if I have to guess correctly, the mutation Boris and his gang had suffered through is corrupting their mind and hearts." Twilight said seriously, recalling the effects of the mutations that Shadow Dragon informed her and Ben. "Dark Curse is taking their wills away."

"So wait, they are doing 'dis not out their own free minds?" Applejack ask bewildered.

"It's like Gilda committing acts of murder, only for it to turn out she was manipulated the whole time!" Rainbow exclaims in disbelief.

"Reference to how Gilda is a good bird now but her position is questionable in JusSonic's stories!" Pinkie exclaims to the camera happily.

"Random, Pinks, random."

"Let's follow him. Boris and his gang were controlled since that event. They might lead us to whoever was in charge of it." Twilight suggests to her friends. If they follow Boris and their gang, they may lead to whoever is responsible.

"Are you nuts?" Nyx ask her big sister frantically. "After what they did to us before hand?"

"Twilight, even I find this idea of yours to be...questionable at best." Ben said in agreement. Boris deserved to be in military school for almost killing him and the others not too long ago. Now? She wants to help him?

Even the others are skeptic over this. Twilight spoke up, "I know what Boris and his gang did was wrong but it's better than letting him go off without knowing what was going on."

"Ugh, fine." Rainbow groans while shaking her head.

"We'll follow them. Ain't gonna be happy though." Applejack sighs. She won't be happy about doing this, but if Twilight insists, may as well do it for her.

"Oh bother. And here, I thought we will stay out of trouble for today." Rarity groans as she slaps her forehead.

"Oh dear, oh my." Fluttershy said, trembling as the others head off to follow Boris's goons.

"Let's go where we dare not go!" Pinkie exclaims, squeezing a bit.

-----------------------------------

"Evrything is going according to our master's plan..." Sombra said, wearing his helmet which is now new and improved.

Chrysalis nodded her head as she spoke, "indeed... I can't wait for this to happen after so long to running away from authorities." It was a long time since the two's disappearance after Boris's stupid mistake, but the two's wait will be worth it.

"Yes... And now... The Project End will soon begin. I can't wait to start..."

"Yes... I can't wait too..."

Sombra and Chrysalis has did some improvement to their abilities and themselves over the years. Now to see if everything they did will be worth it once "Project End" is done and over with.

> Chapter 6: Project End

Chapter 6: Project End


Twilight and her friends followed the mutated Boris and his friends for whole night. Apparently so far, the villains didn't even see them following for some reason. They came to the familiar place that is on the other side of the dock, across the water.

"Are you kidding me?! Seriously?! They have been hiding from us from Ellis Island?!" Rainbow yelps in shock and disbelief. 

Boris and his friends flew over the sea and headed straight to Ellis Island. They then found Chrysalis and Sombra coming out and meeting with them, along with some familiar faces. While the gang may be on the other side, they were able to see what's going on quite fine.

"Looks like Boris wasn't kidding about Chrysalis and Sombra being the one who help him. But they weren't the only ones." Ben said, spotting more than Chrysalis and Sombra on the other side. Some old "friends" are on the other side as well.

"Decepticons and Dark Terrorists. They really were working for them. What they're doing here?" Nyx ask puzzled and concerned.

"Maybe they are up to something bad?" Sweetie ask getting a bit nervous.

"What did you expect? Those guys are always up to something bad!" Scootaloo exclaims to Sweetie, reminding her of the various times the Decepticons and Dark Terrorist enemies are always up to something bad.

"But why hide out here of all places?" Sunset ask in concern, suspecting that the enemies got one good reason to be hiding here at Ellis Island.

"I don't know... But we've got to alert Shadow Dragon and others about it." Twilight said seriously to her friends. They can't deal with this problem on their own. Shadow Dragon and his group must be alerted for some backup.

Ben nodded as he spoke, "Yeah. Let's go."

"Going somewhere?" A voice spoke. A yellowish humanoid in samurai armor, black hair in a ponytail and is armed with his golden twin swords that he points at his enemies appears, along with zombified samurais and Decepticons.

Twilight snarled, recognizing this new enemy, "Longblade..."

Longblade smirks in amusement as he said, "Quite interesting... Take them in, boys."

The gang finds themselves seek by the samurais and Decepticions. Either Boris's group led them to a trap or it was a foolish idea to come here after all. Either way, it doesn't matter, they're captured.

------------------------------

Crimson Skull look pleased as Boris and his goons put down the items that the Dark Terrorists has required. It took a while but everything that they wanted is now here. Those bullies have come a long way since being removed from Canterlot High and brainwashed to serve their purposes.

"Ah... Well done, Boris. You have done well of what we require. It appears he was right about you. You are very useful to us..." Crimson Skull said with a pleased look. If Boris could respond, he didn't, all the creep did...was stare.

"I hope these gems are what you required for 'Project End'." Chrysalis said with a smirk of satisfaction to her colleague. By the time everyone else figure out her and Sombra's true allegiance, it will be too late.

"Better hope so. I want to start this event at once. I want to see the new world..." Sombra said anxiously. He has to put up with his stupid school and the Dragon Strike Force almost literally breathing down his neck.

"Patient... You will have your moment." Crimson Skull said to Sombra patiently. He can tell the villain has waited a long time and it will be worth the trouble. "We just need another item to retrieve."

Sombra groaned while slapping himself on the forehead, "How many items do you require?! We've got your military nukes, nanomites, chemical supplies, computer chips, satellites and some Cybertronian Chips and Metals for this project. What more do you require?! I want to start it now!"

"Ignore him. He just annoyed of not seeing Humans serving us." Chrysalis suggests to the Crimson Skull, rolling her eyes at Sombra's impatience.

"It will happen. Be patient. The time will come." The Crimson Skull assures, not put off by Sombra's impatience.

Just then Kishin Akuma, a blackish Azure's Twin-like who wore Demonic samurai armor with a black cape, approached while chuckling evilly, "Indeed. Be patient. Without that item, we will not proceed Project End."

"Fine..." Sombra said with a sigh. It better be worth it.

Warstrike, a Demonic grayish figure dressed in samurai armor, approached and bowed before his masters. He spoke, "Master... Longblade brought some interesting gifts for you."

--------------------------

Longblade and his minions are tying Twilight and her friends up to the pipes in making sure that they'd not escape. The teenagers and kids felt rather foolish. Why didn't they come prepared upon seeing Boris and his troop earlier?! As they struggled in getting out from the cuffs to the pipes, they turned and found familiar enemies arriving.

"Well, well, well... if it isn't the meddling kids?! How amusing..." The Crimson Skull said with a cruel chuckle. It's good to see them again after the events with the Dazzlings and Fafnir.

"Let us go!" Fluttershy exclaims in fear and sadness.

"I demand to see a lawyer...or a hair stylist!" Rarity exclaims furiously.

"You won't get away with this!" Rainbow exclaims furiously.

"Skull, release us right now or it will end badly for you!" Ben exclaims sternly to the Dark Terrorist.

Crimson Skull shakes his head as he said, "I'm afraid we cannot let any of you go without informing the government of our plans."

"Indeed. With you here, we can proceed with our project..." Kishin said in amusement. Perhaps the group's capture is a sign of victory for the Dark Terrorists and their allies.

"What project?" Applejack ask, arching an eyebrow at this.

"What are you up to now?" Twilight demands furiously to the enemies. She suspected that the Dark Terrorists haven't given up after their defeat alongside their allies when her pony self came back to stop the Dazzlings and even Fafnir, along with some help from Ben, Nyx & Tough Apple's pony selves, Spike & Phobos's Dragon selves, Megan and Omega.

Crimson Skull smirked as he explains, "I'm honored of you to ask that. Because sooner or later, we can proceed with our project to end the humanity once and for all."

Kishin nods, explaining, "Yes... That is our master's plan from the start. Humans will be exterminated while those who accept our beliefs and order shall evolved. The new world will be ours."

"Wow, I thought I was random." Pinkie said in disbelief upon hearing that explanation. "You guys are loony tunie!"

"Not to mention insane." Scootaloo exclaims furiously, glaring at the bad guys as if they grew some new heads.

"You're all mad!" Nyx exclaims in agreement.

"Mad? I prefer ingenious. Due to the effort of my brother and Guildenstern's, we can finally turned the world into a better specimen. And soon... There will be no chaos. No destruction. No wars. Only total obedience and loyalty to us and our master." The Crimson Skull said with a cruel smile on his face. Yes, he can see it now.

"Finish them off. The last thing I want is some distraction." Kishin said seriously to Longblade. If these heroes remind to be around, sooner or later, they will get in the way and ruin everything.

Longblade smirked taking his sword out while saying, "As you wish, master..."

The kids gasps as Longblade prepares to do the wicked task at hand. Looks like this is it, they are dead for sure! Of course, it would've been the case had an explosion from somewhere haven't interrupted him.

A beep is heard on the Crimson Skull's comlink beeps, repeating in him answering it. A Dark Terrorist's voice yells out, "We're under attack! We're under attack!"

"What do you mean by that?!" The Crimson Skull gasps in shock and anger. How could they be attacked now?!

"The Autobots and Dragon Strike Force are here! They're here! They have found us!"

"How?!" Kishin ask in shock and alarm. He was sure that the Autobots and Dragon Strike Force would never find them! Unless they are tracking the kids the whole time! Glancing at the prisoners, he snaps, "I don't know of how or what you did but rest assure that I'll dispose of them for good before dealing with you. Boris! Take care of them! The rest of you follow me. We will get rid of these fools..."

Kishin Akuma and his generals left for the battlefield, their enemies must not be permitted to win this time. Boris and his gang left to keep an eye on their enemies. Unknown to everyone however, a familiar toy car drove to the corner and saw what has happened.

"Hang on, Goddess of the Sun. We're coming." A figure from Sunset's past mumbles in determination.

------------------

The Dark Terrorists and Decepticons' allies rushed to the front doors, preparing themselves as the doors were slammed onto them hard. Soon, they burst open as the old enemies come in. 

"Knock knock!" Crosshairs exclaims with a smirk. 

"Heck yeah! You bad humans are so going down!" Hound exclaimed in determination. 

Shadow Dragon got to work on giving out orders to his men. He needed to keep tabs on them, despite the fact that there was no chance of an 'alien invasion' happening would paid off! 

"All units! Take them down! Our friends are here. Find them and get them out. Whatever they're doing, they're gonna regret messing with my family." Shadow Dragon ordered his men. No one messes with anyone of his family and gets away with it! 

Drift charged in as he swung his swords at some of the Decepticons Troopers. Hound fired his Gatling gun at them while swinging his belly at them. Crosshairs dodged and avoided the blasts while firing his enemies off. Bumblebee fired his blaster as well while punching and kicking them off. 

Shadow Dragon punched and kicked them with his martial art skills while dodging the enemies' attacks. Saber Dragoon charged in as he swung his swords against his enemies, Shorty Thinking and Tailtech fired their Blasters at them, Burnblast and Lightningblade swung their Thunder Strikes at the enemies while swinging their swords at them. Terrorcreep charged in and threw his axes at them off while flying around and beating them down. Icy fired her Ice Beam at them, Blazefist punched and kicked at them while firing his Fore Blasts at them. Aqua fired her Water Torpedo while kicking and punching the bad guys off. In his hardened armor, Laxtinct punched and knocked them off like mad. Flare Tiger fought and battled against her enemies quick and hard. 

In short, the enemies didn't have a chance. 

Shadow Dragon got his ready, calling out to Wheelie who should be in the place somewhere, "Wheelie, hurry. Get them back safety." 

-----------------

Wheelie got the message. He must get to work on getting Boris and his goons away from the captives, and he knows how. Distraction!

"Yo! Come and get me! I'm over here! Come and get me!" Wheelie taunted, slapping his back as if slapping his rear end while taunting the enemy.

"Hey! He just insulted us!" Boxco exclaimed angrily.

"No, I insulted the monkeys...oh, I guess that would be you three then." Wheeler taunted the brainwashed bad guys in amusement.

"Why, you dirty--!" Dum-Dum snarled.

Boris growled furiously, “Arrest...him...” 

Boris and his gang chased after Wheelie to the corner. Before they could do anything, they screamed in pain as the trio got knocked out. 

Twilight and her friends looked worry as they wondered what happen next. Suddenly, they saw two familiar faces that they hadn't see in for a long time appearing: the strong, armored form of Sideswipe with dual blades on his gauntlets while Wheelie looked the same with a turbo jet on his back. 

"What's up, guys?" Sideswipe asked his friends with a smile. 

"Sideswipe! Wheelie!” Everyone, especially Sunset, exclaimed in surprise and happiness. Their two old robot friends from not too long ago are alive! They’re here! 

"Long time no see, guys." Wheelie said with a chuckle to the group as an armored Black Ops girl appeared and was able to help get them free. "Wow, thanks for signaling your whereabouts. We wouldn't have made it if it weren't for you."

"Awesome timing!" Rainbow exclaimed with a grin.

"Wait, we were signaling our whereabouts?" Fluttershy asked as the girl released him. "Thank you."

"Yeah, Ben's brother in law was still keeping tabs on you lot despite the incident with the Dazzlings proving that there was no alien invasion." Sideswipe added. "That, and it was on the insistence of Iris Crystal."

Sunset hugged Wheelie tightly while screaming happily, "You're okay! I miss you so much!" 

"Yeah, me too." Wheelie said, happy to see Sunset, too. With a frown, the robot then jumped and kicked Rainbow's leg hard. "That's for bullying my girl, you witch!" 

Wheelie, of course was preferring to when Rainbow and her friends thought that Sunset was posting embarrassing pictures of them last Christmas, only for it to turn out to be the Cutie Mark Crusaders trying to ruin Sunset. 

Rainbow, holding her leg, groaned, "Yeesh! I'm sorry. I didn't mean it, you know."

"Yeah, right." Wheelie remarks, rolling her eyes a bit. 

"No time for argument or reunion, we've gotta meet up with the rest." Sideswipe said, reminding everyone that there is still a job to do here. 

The armored Black Ops Girl spoke, "You go on ahead. The Great- I mean, I will come to you later. I need to help these boys." 

"Hmmm; that voice sounds familiar. Now where have I heard it before?" Rarity asked, a bit puzzled.

"Yew sure about 'dat?" Applejack asked the girl in concern.

"I'll be fine. Go now!" The girl insisted, motioning her friends to go ahead and head off. 

Sideswipe transformed into the latest form of silver Chevrolet Corvette with twin Blasters on sides. Seeing that form amazed the former captives. He must’ve gone through a bit overhaul! 

"Whoa!" Rainbow exclaimed.

"You must've gotten better!" Pinkie exclaimed in delight.

"Boy howdy!" Applejack exclaimed with a smirk on her face.

"This must be what Azure and his pals were doing." Twilight said, impressed as well. Azure and his allies did well in the updating progress.

“Let's roll!” Sideswipe orders as he and Wheelie heads out, with the captives following, leaving the mysterious girl behind. Who is she? 

The girl begins to get to work on calling in some old pals of her for help. As she does, the girl looked at the unconscious Boris as if wanting to…pet him a bit. 

"Boris, hang on. Tricia is here to save you...” The girl said in the familiar voice of Trixie. She came all this way to help her beloved and will free him from enemy control once and for all. 

---------------

The forces of Dark Curse and Galvatron were in a scramble. The enemies were attacking the base, and they were so close to finishing their project. They must abandon the base right now! 

"We are so close... Project End was so close to finish..." Kishin Akuma groaned in anger and disbelief. 

"This is unfortunate... If only those creatures were here, we would have them in our custody." The Crimson Skull said bitterly. 

"What is next?" Sombra asked his allies, wanting further orders on what to do next. 

"Take care of those fools. I want them disposed of. You two will get rid of them." Kishin said, volunteering Sombra and Chrysalis for this task. 

"But general-" Chrysalis began to protest. 

"Now!" Kishin exclaimed furiously, not wanting to hear another word. 

Sombra and Chrysalis sighed in anger as they left at once to deal with it. The Crimson Skull turns to his allies, speaking, "We should not wait for those fools. They have served their purpose. We must transport Project End out at once." 

"Yes... The end of humanity will come...." Kishin said in confidence. 

For now, the enemy must wait for the right time for that day to come… 

---------------

The scene shift changes towards where we find the escaped Rainbooms, along with Ben, the CMC, Nyx, & Sunset Shimmer. They were being led by Wheelie and Sideswipe who freed them from their captivity as they were rushing to make it within a large outer opening on Ellis Island.

"Listen, I shall join the Autobots in their fight." Sideswipe said, hearing an explosion. "Wheelie? Get them to safely."

"Yes, sir!" Wheelie exclaims, saluting Sideswipe as he heads off to battle.

"Hope he turns out okay." Fluttershy said in concern.

"Heck, he survived worst."

“Well, well, look what the metallic cat dragged in.” Spoke a female voice in making such a remark of who has come out with Wheelie.

Now entering the scenery was something of a shock, for coming from right out in the opening like high & mighty types, were none other…than those that the Rainbooms gang haven’t seen in sometime except a few minutes or so ago; Sombra & Chrysalis.

“Chrysalis….& Sombra!” Twilight yelps in seeing who was here, as it was those that they have not seen in so long.

“So ye finally show yer true colors.” Applejack sternly stated off in seeing what kinda true colors were seen by the enemy’s action.

“And boy, is it an ugly thing.” Rainbow Dash remarked off in stating how these two look as bad as last time they saw the foes.

“Mock us if you can, but you should know something….” Sombra remotely stated as not being intimidated by such remarks.

“And what would that be?” Rarity raised an eyebrow in pondering what this group knows that they don’t know.

“We have had much time to improve ourselves…since you last seen us.” Chrysalis smiled off to say this in having acquired something to make them….more powerful than last time they saw each other.

“Oh my, you have?” Fluttershy yelps off in seeing this from having heard this.

“And just what sort of improvements?” Ben asked off in being suspicious of what was going on here.

“For starters…turning your savior…into your killer.” Chrysalis remarked off with a sly smile in beginning to hold out her hand towards…Wheelie.

“Guhhahaha…wha-wha-what’s happen-in-in-in-in-innnnn….?” Wheelie was reacting funny in like he was moving weirdly.

“Wheelie, what’s wrong?” Sunset Shimmer asked in seeing something was wrong with their friend.

Then without warning, the Mini-con was seen launching itself to attack the others with its metal claws. The action made them yelp to duck & avoid the first unexpected attack, before more were coming that the gang had to duck & dodge while asking what the heck was happening here.

“Holy Cupcakes, he’s trying to kill us!” Pinkie Pie yelps off in seeing this that shock them a bit.

“Nyx, keep the CMC safe and away from this!” Twilight issued off in wanting the young ones to stay safe.

“But….” Nyx was about to protest here until….many had to separate from when Wheelie almost attack her & her friends.

There was no time to argue as Nyx lead Apple Bloom, Scootaloo & Sweetie Belle to take cover behind some large boxes while the others had to get an out of control Wheelie from almost clawing Ben’s eyes out.

“What did you do to Wheelie?” Sweetie Belle asked off in seeing what was doing on with their small metal friend.

“It’s one of my abilities I’ve gain, thanks to the Dark Terrorists’ assistance, any machine….is under MY control; my drone to command.” Chrysalis explained this off in feeling darkly in knowing that any machine she can control.

“Oh man, that sounds bad.” Scootaloo yelps in feeling this was surprising to see how bad this was looking.

“Real bad, mah sister & friends can’t hurt a pal who helped us.” Apple Bloom stated in not knowing how their friends & family could harm Wheelie while this was not his fault.

We see that much of the gang had to avoid Wheelie using some spare metal bars that they found to hurt the poor guy while just swinging to make the moving bot keep back. But then Rainbow & AJ tackle Wheelie to pin him down, long enough for Sunset Shimmer to rush over to find something that was the Mini-Con’s power supply, which she yanked out to help stop Wheelie by powering down for a bit.

“I’m sorry Wheelie, but I gotta shut you down temporally.” Sunset apologized in feeling this was gonna hurt her, before pulling the energy supply from Wheelie’s body that kept him moving.

“No…pro-bleeeuuummmm.” As Wheelie began to say, his voice went low before he was shown of his optics going off.

“That ended faster than expected.” Sombra commented off to say this in seeing that the fight had ended in a very less appealing motion that didn’t seem to entertain them much.

“Oh, it’s on!” Sunset Shimmer glared off in seeing this, these foes have crossed the line in doing this to her Transformer friend.

“Is that the best you can do?” Rainbow Dash challenged off in wanting to ask this in thinking this was nothing.

Then without warning, Chrysalis held up her left hand as if…awaiting something. Then without warning, something was moving from across the entire open area to reveal a lot of black metallic looking human size machines with jet-like functions. They soon stood in surrounding the escapees that were completely shock in seeing the situation go from bad to much worse off than before.

“Ye HAD ‘ta Ask, didn’t ya Rainbow?” Applejack rolled her eyes in remarking the sarcastic challenge in making an enemy respond.

“This…is the best I can do here.” Chrysalis remarked off in responding to the quirky challenge. “In fact, this is all precisely what I wanted. All of you here against an army of Mini Transformer Drones!” She pointed off that it was merely seven teenage girls & one teen boy against a vast army of killer robots. “How can you possibly hope to even stop me now?” She remarked off to state that this situation, was impossible to overcome.

“Well, it’s like what Pony Twilight always said.” Rarity quoted off to say this in recalling wha their friend from another world said.

“Through friendship, that’s where the magic is!” Fluttershy nods off in trying to be serious of their situation here.

“Right, so bring it on sister, even though you’re not really my sister or anyone else, or even a cousin, or aunt, or…” Pinkie Pie was rambling off a lot of random stuff that was not getting anyone anywhere until something cuts in…

“PINKIE!” The others shouted off in wanting their friend to cease the long chatting stuff already.

“Oh right, in short of this….BRING IT ON!” Pinkie Pie then quickly wraps up what she was trying to say as they are ready to fight.

Soon without warning, many of the drones began to move off in preparing to attack the gang. They were about to brace themselves when….someone threw daggers that impacted the front drones.

“Mind if we partake?” Then another voice spoke off to reveal it was Pinkamena as she arrived with herself holding some dagger set & a sword while her brother Golden Heart was seen carrying what look like a flamethrower pack.

“Pinkamena, Golden Heart?” Ben raised an eyebrow in seeing who was coming to help them out of nowhere.

“You were expecting someone else?” Pinkamena smiled off to say this in a cheeky manner.

“We came to help when we heard you went off to trail Boris.” Golden Heart stated that they came to help when they learn what happened to their buds.

“Well thanks for coming, we can use a lot of help.” Twilight nods off to say this in seeing that with some extra hands here, that was a good thing.

“Don’t worry youngsters….” Then appearing from a big military jeep to pull over near the gang was…Hoboken Joe as he also came with some equipment & stuff for helping to face off this enemy. “Help will pop up when ye least expect it….now hold onto yer socks, it’s time ta RUMBLE!” Hoboken Joe issued off to say this in seeing that with this bunch here, time for them to rock out.

Now without warning, the scene goes into a major stop motion where the gang are about to face off against Sombra & Chrysalis along with their Drone Army. This was now the beginning of where it was time to take down this villain bunch here & now…

--------------------

The scene begins to open in a strange computer terminal storage area, where it was likely a place to store large amounts of gigabytes to terabytes. By the door was it starting to open up for someone was entering. For entering was none other than Trixie and the Illusions. They appeared to have snuck right in & saw the master control center ahead of them that look like that would give them access.

“Okay you three, you know what we need to do here.” Trixie issued off to her friends in stating what they must do next.

“Yes….” Trixie’s friends replied off in getting to work on what they are required to do.

Trixie was seen coming by a terminal computer while her friends barricade the door. The screen showed a mention of copy data which Trixie click yes to, and a line was beginning to fill up.

“Gee-wiz, if I knew what I be getting into, I have rethought this….but for Boris’s sake, I will have him!” Trixie was starting to rethink this whole matter of what she’s getting into, but she’s sticking to it to save Boris.

Then there was some banging from the door behind them as Trixie’s friends were using furniture & stuff to hold the door close…but something with enhanced strength was likely to break down the door first. There were loud grumbling noises of someone being outside, and from a glass view mirror, Trixie’s band mates got a view of them.

“Trixie, we got company.” The red haired girl issued off in seeing who they got coming at them.

“It’s Boris & his mutant buddies!” The blonde haired girl also stated in seeing to recognize who was here.

Trixie was shocked to have heard that, Boris, who recovered, was outside, but the guy she has a huge crush on is acting like a mindless minion to whoever is commanding him to do things. She gets upset in just thinking about this, before making a firm decision at the hour.

“Oh, this data is taking too long to upload? What was it Hobo Joe said if we ran into mutant forms of or former classmates.” Trixie complained to see the system was too slow in uploading to copy the data, but then asked off in what was it the guy they ran into said if they came across mutant trouble, namely from Boris & his boys.

“That if all three are together, them being Boris, Dum Dum, & Boxco, we need to throw in a special capsule at them.” The girl with the red haired explained off what they were told to do if they were to ever come to meet the mutant turn Ex-students of Canterlot Hugh.

“It’ll trigger an implosive dust to enter their lungs, and from what genius minds from Shadow Strike Force have done, a vaccine will fix their broken minds.” The blonde haired girl finished off in what they got was made by the smart folks to help fix Boris’s gang with their condition.

“Then on my signal, let them in.” Trixie issued this off, as her friends stared puzzled at her, but they nod in knowing better than to question the trickster show girl. “One…Two….THREE!” She was slowly giving the countdown to when it was gonna be time to begin things.

Then without warning, Trixie’s pals got out before the door burst down with the reckless mutant actions of Boris, Dum Dum & Boxco. Seeing their mutated forms that seem to make them look scary while tough looking creatures, they seem to lack more response in the mind. When they were coming to attack Trixie, she threw the capsule she had that exploded at the mutants, releasing a powder explosion that made them cough. After a brief moment of having to suffocate through that, Boris & his gang drop on their knees while their pupils appeared as if regaining their sense of will for the first time after they became mutant zombies.

“Boris, can you hear me, say something….anything that comes to mind.” Trixie came over to check the mutant guy she has a crush on to see if he’s okay.

“Urrrragggh…..where….wha-what happened to me?” Boris groans off asked off to rub his head in feeling like he has the worse headache ever.

“Close enough.” Trixie shrug off to say in seeing that response was at least alright for her to deal with.

“Ugh, boss….um, where are we?” Dum Dum slowly asked off in where were they exactly.

“Yeah, and…what happen to us?” Boxco asked off in seeing that they don’t even look human, they don’t even look Demonic.

“I remember….we were beaten, & being sent to military school for using a Deception Body Armor, when someone from the Dark Terrorists showed up, offered us….power, then…” Boris held his head in stating what he vaguely remembers when he was trying to get Twilight & punish Ben with a stolen Deception Battlesuit Armor, but was fowled, sent to a holding cell to be transferred to military school before someone broke them out, then there was a moment they were mutated to….

“WE BEEN MUTATED INTO FREAKS!” Dum Dum & Boxco screamed out in seeing that they are not even human no more.

“Yes, but….then some weird effect was making it hard to…stay conscious, like I was sinking into the depths of no return, What did that quack Guildenstern do to us? And now at last, I find…myself here.” Boris spoke off to slowly get up, as if recalling when some whacko named Guildenstern experiment on them to mutant their bodies to be stronger, only to lose their will & personality in the process.

“In truth Boris, I learn what happened, those Dark Terrorists gave you power, but they slowly rob your free will to become mindless mutate zombies.” Trixie explained what she knew that took place in what was making Boris forget who he once was to be nothing but a mindless servant.

“Zombies!” The two Stooges yelps upon thinking that was what they were turning into.

“But I, the Great & Powerful Trixie, have managed to come to your rescue!” Trixie declared forth in announcing this as an act she has done against the impossible. “And now I shall never let you go!” As she said this, she was hugging the mutated Boris without feeling any discomfort.

“Ugh….I can’t tell if I should be grateful or not from who saved us, but…” Boris moans to hold his head in seeing this girl is crazy for him, enough to be annoying while also caring. “Thanks for wanting to save me….I mean, us.” He stated this off to say in seeing that at least Trixie cares to help him & his gang out.

“No problem, now come on…we have to get out of here.” Trixie “My task of copying data & my personal task of saving you is done, now it’s time we blow this place before the fighting drags us into it.”

“But, what is happening now?” Dum Dum asked off the next question here.

“Yeah, who’s fighting?” Boxco asked off in having heard some fighting going on outside.

“Sombra & Chrysalis are facing likely the Rainbooms!” Trixie explain this with a serious face on her expression.

“Who?” The two stooges asked off since they have been gone for so long, they don’t know who that group is.

“Rainbow Dash & her friends that helped the other worldly Twilight? Ugh….” Trixie remarks off to roll her eyes in explaining to these guys that the Rainbooms are of the five girls that Twilight hangs with.

“Ohhh….” Dum Dum & Boxco slowly nods off in getting the picture now.

Now Trixie, her group & Boris group soon quickly make leave of the place while much more of the battle was still going on outside while the place shook a bit. As things go darker, what was happening with the other heroes at this time was mostly uncertain stuff to be sure.

------------------------

We return to seeing how the Rainbooms gang are handling themselves against the approach of the Drone Army commanded by Chrysalis. So far, Hobo Joe had to give the girls some protective bullet proof shields & some battering rod to allow them some defense & offense usage. Right now, much of them were being scattered about while some were handling okay to keep the drones at bay as they were not as fully protective like the stolen Deception suit Boris once used.

“Is it just me, or does it seem like every time we pal around with any version of Twilight and Ben is going to have us fighting some cut-rate wannabe super-villain?” Rainbow Dash commented off to say this in seeing whenever the Canterlot High girls hang with Twilight or Ben, unexpected fights with villains seem to happen.

“It’s almost like we’re entertaining an audience watching us & want something exciting to happen.” Pinkie Pie stated off in breaking the fourth wall to mention this.

“Oh my, that does sound bad.” Fluttershy stated off to say this in how bad that did sound to her.

“Well it ain’t their fault these wackos are appearing.” Applejack issued off that such things are not fault with their pals.

“Look, Ben, Golden Heart & Pinkamena are still keeping Sombra at bay!” Rarity pointed off in seeing what their other friends are doing at the moment.

True to Rarity’s words, Sombra was seen fighting with his own sword in tackling against Ben who had gotten a sword from Hobo Joe to better defend himself. Pinkamena & Golden Heart were trying to help with some support means in backing Ben up.

“No matter what you do, I will make sure none escape from my wrath!” Sombra declared fourth in about to make sure none of the ones here will get through him.

“Sorry, but you don’t scare us so easily!” Ben remarked off to say this in not about to fall over just yet.

“Then it’s time to try out this…” Sombra pointed off to a strange helmet he wore & strange black gauntlets with energize gemstones inside the wrist. “My helmet gives me the power to make fears come to life. These gem gauntlets allow me to change the structure and form gems to attack my enemies.” He explained off in what he can use of the abilities he now has to make him ever more powerful & more terrifying than before.

Then Sombra’s helmet began to glow as it sent out a hidden wave-link that effected Ben’s mind; before something was forming from thin air: Werewolves. The sudden surprise of such creatures howled before they were attacking the bunch, making those that were fighting have to keep the claws & teeth away from their bodies.

“Great, just great, something out of that horror movie I saw last week. I still had bad dreams of being cornered by werewolves that turn me into one.” Ben groans to say in seeing that Sombra brought his nightmare that he feels fearful to life.

“Well let’s see these wolves take the heat!” Goldie exclaimed to say this while turning up the heat by firing his flamethrower; which seem to be taking care of the wolves.

“Heeeyaaahhh!” Then Pinkamena dives in to thrust her sword which Sombra used his own sword to counter that as he was not so defenseless. “Your Time's Up Sombra! Give up your wicked life of evil!” She snapped off in wanting this guy to cease this life of evil this instant.

“NEVER!” Sombra yelled out in refusing to give up.

Soon the battle continues of those trying to subdue Sombra as best as they could. And right now, Hobo Joe brought up a Gatling machine Gun off his military jeep to start blasting away the rounds to take down the odds of Chrysalis’ Drone Army. Sunset Shimmer was trying to fight off near Chrysalis, but more of her machine minions kept standing against her.

“Urge, at this rate, we won’t be able to reach Chrysalis!” Sunset Shimmer growls in fury, the head enemy is in front of them, but they can’t get to her with her commanding & controlling all of these robots. “We need more help here.” She stated that they need more help then what they got, but who else could help them out of this tight pinch.

“But from where?” Nyx asked off in where they can get some help at this time.

“From me!” Spoke another voice that sounded familiar before appearing from an open doorway which was…. “The Great & Powerful Trixie, and her Illusions! And…fellow allies!” Yep, it was Trixie, her band girl members and even…Boris & his gang?

“What?” The CMC yelped off in seeing who are here to save the day, but it was not what they expect.

“No way!” Apple Bloom shook her head in seeing this with doubt.

“Trixie’s helping?” Scootaloo stated in them knowing who Trixie is from school.

“And Boris too?” Sweetie Belle stated that out of all others to come, the mutant jerks are here?

“Don’t worry, we got our minds un-duck!” Dum Dum pointed off in stating this fact while getting whacked.

“No, it’s undone! We’re free to think freely!” Boxco exclaimed to correct his bud on them being fixed up.

“Which is hard considering that you two were never that smart from the beginning.” Boris sighs to sadly state how the situation of these two having their minds working is hard to even know if it works at all. “But let me be clear to you all, we have a SCORE to settle with the witch that was calling the shots & left us to rot!” He snapped off to say this in staring at Chrysalis for what she did to them when they were working for that shady woman.

“That was your own fault, idiot! If you listened, you would not have been expelled!” Chrysalis remarked off to tell the idiot Boris that if he listen to her, then Boris wouldn’t have ended up where he is now.

“Enough, boys…tear her ones apart!” Boris snapped off in having enough of this chatter as he orders that they go in for the attack.

“Right!” Dum Dum & Boxco nodded off in having heard the order & shall begin so immediately.

Now Boris & his mutant buddies went off for the first tackle in finally pinning down some Drones to start smashing & ripping them to pieces. Using whatever sorta mutant powers that they were given to deal with some damages. The Rainbooms were a bit surprised to be glad that other allies were dealing with these mutant bunch while they took care of the more…well, magical threat foes like Fafnir.

“I never thought I be glad Boris decided to show up.” Twilight stated off in seeing how this was turning into their favor.

“Guess there’s a first for everything.” Ben shrug off to quote on Twilight’s part of how this was gonna go.

Little by little, what seem like a hopeless battle began to shift quickly that the gang were really making a comeback. Sombra was using whatever gem creation powers to slow his foes down & tried to make their worst fears come true, but Pinkamena & Golden Heart were overcoming them to aid Ben in taking him into a corner. And as for Chrysalis, she was not liking in seeing her machine army she was commanding by her power alone get wasted so easily.

“No, no, NO! I refuse to suffer another loss! In that case….” Chrysalis snapped off in seeing that they were losing, and she won’t stand it; even if it means resorting to drastic measures. She took out a strange needle-like device that seem to have a capsule of liquid stuff in it with different labels of images & words; someone managed to see that to yelp in worry.

“Wait, Chrysalis, when did you swipe those potions from my research collection?” Sombra yelps off in seeing what the woman had in her clutches.

“Since before we came here, Sombra….” Chrysalis issued off to explain that she swiped the potions before arriving at this spot.

“What’s she talking about?” Golden Heart asked off towards Sombra as they try to beat the truth out of him despite some resistance.

“Those potions contain proportionate abilities of literally a dozen different species of insect & arachnid types. Each one varies from ones I’ve study to create a serum that would give a human a boost of such abilities.” Sombra explained off that what Chrysalis had was something that contain essences of different Insects type creatures that have genetic coding of their unique abilities.

“So in short, you ripped off the idea from the Amazing Spider-Man 2 film, didn’t you?” Pinkamena broke the fourth wall to explain the evil that the guy did while smacking her sword to almost shatter Sombra’s gem defense.

“But Chrysalis, that syringe device, it’s meant for multiple dosages, you can’t be thinking of…?” Sombra asked off in noticing what the woman was going to do, one injection is one thing, but that many dosage could be unthinkable.

“Oh, but I am…watch as I shall unleash a power to where you shall bow down before a queen!” Chrysalis exclaimed forth in announcing this timing to unleash a force of power to be awaken…from herself.

Then without warning, Chrysalis soon had the tech needle device to her shoulder, which was slowly oozing in something from each little capsule it held: there were an ant, a wasp, a stinkbug, three different types of beetle from rhinoceros, tiger and bombadier, then a cockroach and a Golden Orb Spider. So when the last thing was emptied out, that was it, and when some were expecting the worse…nothing came; it was all…quiet.

“Wait, nothing’s happening.” Ben stated in seeing nothing was making Chrysalis seem any different.

“Wait fer it Ben, cause trust me…this is bound ta get ugly!” Hobo Joe sternly stated in feeling like such a thing will start to take effect shortly soon, and when it does…it won’t be pretty.

“I’m thinking that some freaky background music related to the Amazing Spider-Man 2 will be heard in where Harry Osborn took the spider serum which started to affect his body.” Pinkamena broke the fourth wall in breaking this news to everyone in what she was hearing.

“I can’t tell if you’re random at times sis or…if I should worry from your warnings.” Golden Heart stated in what was gonna happen could be equally bad news.

Then without warning, Chrysalis felt a strange itch sensation that was bugging her. Then she drops to the floor as she lets off an agonizing cries of inner pain, as if something was happening to her. Chrysalis was suddenly trying to reach for something, but she was ending up ripping most of her clothes off, as the action seem to scare the others or watch what was going on in stump surprise.

“GRUUUAAAAROOOOAAARRUGHHH!” Chrysalis’ roaring screams were heard, as she drop to the floor, yelping, twitching, deep-breathing reactions as if she had gone & poisoned herself.

The others watch in seeing the woman try to grip the floor, then it looked like her…skin was crawling in weird motions.

“Okay….THAT, is disturbing.” Rainbow Dash pointed off in feeling like she was gonna throw up soon.

Chrysalis’s skin was peeling off tone replace by a strange amount of scales related to certain insects, her back suddenly spread off strange insect-wings that were mostly cute or sharply edge, her hair began to fizzle out in becoming more messier, hands with fingers became sharper with pincer-like nails, and her eyes seem to shift to be more…insect like.

“GRUUUOGH! UUUUHHHAAAUGH!” Chrysalis seem to be groaning in pain, as if experience all of the strange mutations of all the insects morphing her body as she bears with it.

“Holy….She….what has she done to herself?” Twilight gasped off in staring at the horror that was seen before them.

Finally, when the process was finally long over with, everyone saw that Chrysalis was not moving. But then, she suddenly was pushing herself upwards to take a stand in which she reveals half of her clothes were a bit shredded, but the rest of her looks like a mutant insect of a female humanoid, or in this case; an Insectoid! The woman begins to stare at everything, her enemies, her ally, to even…herself to bear witness everything.

“Heheheheh-huhuhuahahaaahhh….splendid.” Chrysalis laughs off in a sinister manner in sounding strangely…satisfied. “I can feel the combined dosage…magnifying my feats a dozen times over.” She issued in just looking at herself, having felt like the new overflowing measures of what she injected took hold.

Then without warning, she turn to see a large tank truck to then grab it, and then….lift it up as if it was lightweight to her.

“Super-Strength!” Chrysalis exclaimed from having displayed a feat of having super-strength under her hands.

Next she threw the truck which crash & exploded, blinding everyone who managed to stay out of the way, but yelped from getting knocked across by something moving fast which was…Chrysalis.

“Supersonic Speed!” Chrysalis stated in having shown that she can go at a supersonic speed momentum like never before.

“Hit her hard!” Sunset Shimmer exclaimed from running up to whack her hammering weapon on the enemy, which shatter to pieces on contact. “What!” She stared in shock when that which she used broke when it should have hurt Chrysalis.

“An Incredibly Tough Shell!” Chrysalis smiled off wickedly in seeing that her shell body was so tough, it was hard to break through it like an armor defense.

Soon the woman grabbed Sunset’s bulletproof shield to suddenly fly her up so high before letting her go. Hobo Joe started his jeep to rush over to pilot & get Sunset to land on a cushion matt he deployed just in case.

“High-Speed Flight!” Chrysalis exclaimed in having performed a feat of flying so high & so fast. “The ability to adhere to any inverted sold surface & walk across it with great ease. And a new twist.” When she said this, it was an alert warning of what’s coming next.

The gang yelped from when the woman spits something, and it moved so fast, it made marks on the walls; which was sizzling from heat to melt it. Yikes, that’s hot stuff alright!

“An ability to shoot out multiple high-speed rounds of super-heated fluid. That and create spider webbing 24 times more elastic than nylon & 60 times stronger than steel cable!” Chrysalis explained forth this next feat of what else she was capable of doing.

From her hands shot off webs that soon caught Hobo Joe’s vehicle, and just as Sunset got out, Chrysalis laughed off evilly to spin her prey around & around while being high in the sky.

“WOOH-NELLY!” Hobo Joe yelps from when he had to abandon his jeep that Chrysalis tossed off for it to smash to pieces against the wall. “Dang it! I had three payments from dat thing!” He cursed of the loss over his ride there.

“Looks like we’re in a sticky situation here!” Applejack stated to say this in seeing what just happened, their foe just became a bigger problem than before.

“Yeah, no kidding. It’s like she’s part human & part…well…insectoid.” Rainbow Dash remarked off in seeing that Chrysalis is now some sorta freaky insect mutant foe.

“And a disturbing one on the look of her appearance, ugh!” Rarity felt disgusted by seeing what Chrysalis has done to become something that makes her look…icky & gross; but that’s her feeling of bugs that look ugly like this one.

“Oh dear, how do we stop her?” Fluttershy yelps in fearing that their options are not looking so good now

“You can’t my dears, and now….prepare to meet your destruction!” Chrysalis exclaimed forth in about to bring an end to her foes.

“Not so fast, you have to find us first!” Trixie issued forth in stepping in to stop this evil insect woman to catch them if she could find them.

Then Trixie threw a smoke bomb on the ground that blinded the enemy to not see where they were. But then leaping from the smokescreen was Boris, Dum Dum & Boxco that tackled the evil insectoid down to the ground to keep the strong woman down for a while.

“Guuuaaaagh!” Chrysalis was on the ground to growl in seeing Boris’ group trying to stop her. “You imbecile! You think aiding that foolish trickster will make the others see you differently?” She snapped off in seeing that Boris was summer then he looks in thinking helping Trixie will make a difference of his past crimes.

“Hey! Trixie is the only one other than Boxco and Dum-Dum who treats me with any real respect and I refuse to let you hurt her!” Boris snaps off towards Chrysalis in stating

“Then good luck trying to stop me, you three maybe stronger, but I…am STRONGEST!” Chrysalis made an evil sly smile in stating this fact of which was seemingly true.

Then without warning, Chrysalis was shown pushing off her oppressors to jet herself away so fast before coming around to punch them. And then Boris’s gang had to dodge some super-heated liquid spits when Chrysalis took to the air.

“Ugh, Boss, I think she’s right.” Boxco issued off in seeing how tough this woman was.

“Yeah, she seems to have us out duck.” Dum Dum nods off in stating a fact here.

“That’s outdone, and I refuse to lose now!” Boris corrected off to say while also refusing to call it quits.

Boris & his boys were shown trying to defend themselves in where Chrysalis was starting to give the slow ones a beating that would slowly sink in. The rest of the Rainbooms gang had to figure out how to defeat this now stronger version of Chrysalis.

“Twilight darling, if you have a plan on hand, now be a good time to tell us?” Rarity asked off to her friend in hoping she has a solution to this problem.

“I am, so far we’ve seen what Chrysalis can do, Ben & the others are occupied with Sombra…and our only means of defense aren’t enough here.” Twilight stated that she’s trying to figure out how to win this, but seeing what Chrysalis can do, then their current weapon defense aren’t enough.

”Unless we brought our instruments, then we can’t bring up the magic.” Sunset Shimmer stated that if the Rainbooms had their instruments to make music, they transform & get a power boost to win.

“Dang it, Ah really wish we had something ‘ta squash 'is bug.” Applejack cursed off in seeing that they need a way to stop Chrysalis.

“Or maybe bug spray fro' how she’s bugging us.” Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes to remark that she love to spray this pest away.

“Bug spray…bug spray…Wait! That’s it!” Pinkie Pie thought this out for a bit until she yelled out from having inspiration. “If she’s a mutant insectoid, then wouldn’t she be affected by what hurts bugs?” She stated in how they use what hurts bugs & other insects the most with something like a daily bug spray tool.

“Oh my, do you think that could work?” Fluttershy asked off worried asked off in pondering if such a thing will be enough to help them out.

“We’re out of options, and Boris & his group are only holding out for so long!” Trixie stated that if nothing is done, then they will lose since the only strong mutants to fight an insect mutant won’t last long.

Meanwhile, as Boris, Dum Dum & Boxco were struggling to handle the monstrous new insect that was the new Chrysalis, the ones handling with Sombra were still not finished. But from witnessing Chrysalis’s newfound abilities, she had reach a new height where she was far stronger & faster & seemingly more dangerous than the mutants she was fighting that even they or the rest of the Rainbooms could hardly challenge her.

“I told her that one dose of an insect abilities could be enough, now she’s wasted all my resources.” Sombra rolled his eyes in remarking what Chrysalis has gone & done now. “She best not lose after becoming that powerful. After how Boris ruined everything the first time.” He issued off in not wanting to deal with having such a powerful mutant insect opponent lose so easily.

“No offense, Sombry, but you read too many comic books." Pinkamena remarked off to comment how this guy thinks such a thing will be easy to say they’ll win without the fight being over.

"Why would I take offense? It allows me to take the best ideas while learning from the villains' mistakes." Sombra retorts off to quote the comment from learning of Boris defeat to make something to make himself & Chrysalis stronger.

“Then you should learn again from seeing how even Boris has decided to stop you!” Goldie protest off to say this in seeing how things were turning here.

“No matter, you shall all fall!” Sombra snapped off to say this in not about to lose here.

“Now, attack from all three sides!” Ben issued off in seeing the enemy coming, but they got a secret maneuver.

Then without warning, the trio split off to avoid Sombra’s attacks of his sword & gemstones as they soon perform a three-way attack maneuver. Golden Heart unleashed the flamethrower to burn off the gemstones while Ben & Pinkamena leap from the flames to swing their swords to deliver a critical blow on impact which broke against the enemy’s defense & destroyed his helmet that makes the nightmares.

“Gwuuaagh!” Sombra let off a cry from when he soon fell & hit the floor, falling into an unconscious state afterwards.

Meanwhile with Chrysalis, Boris’s gang were kneeling o the ground in where their body surfaces were steaming from the super-heat liquid spits the woman hit them with. But it didn’t end as the woman had used her webbing power to impact like hammers of the traitorous mutant fools before they were in a deep crater she made, 6 feet deep. Once she was done with them, she saw what happened to Sombra as he was defeated.

“Tch! So Sombra has fallen. No matter.” Chrysalis scuffed off to say in annoyance that Sombra was beaten, but she doesn’t care.

“How can she say that?” Sweetie Belle asked off in seeing what Chrysalis just did there.

“Yeah, he was helping’ her too.” Apple Bloom nods off that bad guys should at least care for another.

“Guess bad guys don’t have much honor.” Scootaloo shook her head off in seeing how bad guys treat another as nothing of their business.

“Come on Twilight….you can do this.” Nyx stated off to cheer her sister to win this thing.

“Now then, it’s time that I permanently end your miserable existence.” Chrysalis issued off to say this in soaring above the heroes, in preparing to leach another attack raid. “Once you’re subdued, Dark Curse is sure to have a fun time trying to obtain whatever magic you little girls have obtain, leaving me & my drones to help conquer this world & finish off the Dragon Strike Force.” She explained in what she will do after she has ended things with this bunch.

“Yer ain’t won nothin’ yet!” Hobo Joe snapped off to retort the witch’s claim of having won before the battle is settled.

“Then let me show you!” Chrysalis grinned off to say in preparing to prove to everyone…her worth in words.

Now the evil insect woman took to the skies at superfast flight as she used her webbing to lift up multiple rubble & destroyed vehicles, as she hurl them up in about to attack while preparing a spit. But without warning, Pinkie Pie cuts in the path of the charging enemy, held a canister of something before squirting it out which when it touch Chrysalis…it affected her.

“GWAAAAAAUGH!” Chrysalis screamed out in pain to hurl her objects on her webs away from the heroes as she drop to the ground temporally blinded.

“I can’t believe it, it’s actually working!” Rarity replied off in being surprised that what Pinkie Pie pulled off, saved them.

“Ugh-ugh….Wha…what is this? POISON?” Chrysalis groans off to say in not knowing what sorta spray she was hit with.

“Nope! BUG SPRAY!” Pinkie Pie corrected Chrysalis in what she held out against their foe. “And it’s my very own Super-Strength Bug Spray to keep the bugs away from tasty treats…or hurting us!” She explained off in what she held was something of Chrysalis’s own weakness.

“Oh, of all the idiotic…” Chrysalis moans off to say in not believing it, bug spray, she has developed a weakness to such a trial trait.

“Uh-uh, I don’t think so!” Pinkie Pie smiled off to say in spraying the insect lady with more bug spray.

“Cough-cough….cough-cough….” Chrysalis coughs off in being unable to breath from being hit by that bug spray.

“Pour it on, Pinkie Pie!” Applejack cheered her friend to keep up this little work here.

“Do it for Wheelie!” Sunset Shimmer issued forth in wanting this to get payment back from what Chrysalis did to their friend.

“Cough-cough….how humiliating….being beaten by….bug…cough-cough…spray.” As Chrysalis was coughing to curse this swear, she slowly began to lose conscious as Pinkie Pie had subdued their enemy with embarrassing ease.

"Pardon the pun, but Chrysalis’ scheme has quite a few bugs in it." Rainbow Dash remarked off to comment this in seeing how easily handle this was.

“I’m glad that’s over with.” Fluttershy sighs to say this in being glad this has ended.

“You guys okay?” Ben asked off in approaching the rest with a tied up Sombra.

“We are now…” Nyx smiled off to approach the rest with the CMC behind her.

“But…what do we do about them?” Sweetie Belle pointed to the weakened & down mutant Boris gang.

“Do we turn Boris in?” Apple Bloom asked off if they turn the old jerky bully of their school in.

“Are you kidding, he just saved your bacons! And I just been reunited with my hubby!” Trixie came over to Boris & his Stooges aid from having helped out.

“So…now what do we do?” Scootaloo shrug off her shoulders in not knowing what they should do next here.

“Well, first we clamp these here two under wraps, get out of here & find Azure Phoenix & let him sort this out.” Hobo Joe issued off to take Sombra & Chrysalis towards Azure Phoenix for him to decide how they should punish the villains. “And if an ye lucky miss., they can help fix Wheelie up.” He pointed this off to cheer Sunset up a bit.

“Oh, thank goodness.” Sunset sighs in being glad to hear this piece of news.

“And maybe they might lighten Boris’s punishment just a bit, can’t make any promises…but this act is a start.” Hobo Joe pinch his fingers in stating that maybe Boris & his boys will be given a lighter punishment for deciding to help out.

“You hear that Boris?” Trixie smiled off to Boris in what was told to them.

“Yeah, I did.” Boris moans off to nod slightly, as he was still hurt but heard it all.

Without delaying, everyone slowly picks themselves up to prepare themselves in leaving the area. At least the worse was behind them in having stop the rogue Sombra & the mutant insect Chrysalis. The gang can only hope they will make it out of here alive without running into anymore enemies while taking with them the weaken mutant Boris gang & the captive enemies with them from a spare jeep that was lying around.

------------------

By the time the former captives are out, the battle is already over. The Decepticons and most of the Dark Terrorists has escaped while the bad humans who remained got captured. Shadow Dragon's group came over to the group, relieved that they're safe and sound.

"Are you all alright?" Shadow Dragon ask the group in concern.

"We're fine, Shadow Dragon." Ben said to his brother in law with a nod.

"Yeah, we got a bit shaken but we're all right." Twilight said in agreement with her love.

"You're hurt! Hold still. I'll get rid of it." Terrorecreep gasps. He saw a scratch on Fluttershy 

"It's just a scratch. Nothing to worry about, daddy." Fluttershy insists to the vampire, pushing him away. Why must Terrorcreep make a fuss over something like a little scratch?

Sunset sighs as she gave Wheelie to Sideswipe and the Autobots, who just have a reunion with their friends whom they thought was gone for good. The girl explains, "Chrysalis took Wheelie under her control. I had to pull out his power supply to stop him."

"It's all right. Just some repairs, a new power supply and an anti-control device and Wheelie should be as good as new." Sideswipe said with a sigh. At least Wheelie's okay.

"Where is Trixie?!" Shadow Dragon demands for Trixie's appearance.

"Trixie?!" Most of the Dragon Strike Force ask in shock and alarm. Shadow Dragon told them that an ally will be helping them out in this mission, but he told no one that it was Trixie until now.

"Looking for me?!" Trixie ask, appearing as if on stage while doing a pose. "The Great and Loyal Trixie has succeeded her mission. And I saved Boris and his friends."

"Okay, what gives in Trixie being here anyway?" Rainbow ask with a frown. She and her friends still can't get over the fact that Trixie had come to help and with Boris and his goons, no doubt.

"Right, I mean, it's great that she's here, considering how she help us out during the concert thing to get new uniforms for the soccer team and all that." Sunset said, still not sure of what's going on here.

"We demand to know what Trixie's even doing here!" Scootaloo exclaims in frustration.

Shadow Dragon sighed, "Trixie joined us because of Strikespell."

Ben groaned as he slaps his own forehead, "Again him?! What was he thinking?! Doesn't he know that Trixie is annoying?!

Shadow Dragon shrugged while adding, "He doesn't care."

"And not only that, why did she saved Boris and his gang?!" Rainbow demands, wondering why Trixie would go through all this trouble of saving the ones that tried to kill Ben on the day he was expelled from Canterlot High and even helped the villains out during the incident with the Dazzlings.

"Right, Ah don't understand mahself." Applejack remarks with a deep frown. Unbelievable.

"Yeah, mind telling us why you save those creeps?!" Laxtinct demands to Trixie while keeping his eye suspiciously on Boris for any tricks.

"Yeah, he worked with the enemy and tried to kill us all!" Blazefist exclaims in agreement.

Boris, irritated by this, snaps, "Hey! I was mind controlled by those freaks. I thought they meant to give me some powers, not to be their slave. Be grateful that we've got the drive for you guys."

"What drive?!" Shadow Dragon ask in confusion. What is this nonsense now?

Trixie smiled as she hold up a drive, explaining proudly, "Mr. Secretary chose me to finish the job, unlike any of your friends. I've hid the data inside the drive."

Shadow Dragon groaned, "That doesn't mean you can break formation. We are a team. We stick together."

"FYI, you all need to. While for me, I'm just his special agent and best student. After all, if it weren't for these losers, we wouldn't have found our enemy's hideout and get the data."

"Hey, that's mean!" Fluttershy exclaims, a bit upset by what Trixie just called them.

"We thank you for saving our butts, but that doesn't mean you have to be rude." Rarity said dryly while crossing her arms.

"Be glad she ain't on the bad side." Sweetie said with a frown.

"For one thing, I rather beat her at a concert than in battle." Rainbow remarks while doing some thinking. "Still, nice job, Trix."

"Right, we owe a debt to you for your help." Twilight said, thanking Trixie for her assist during the battle.

Trixie looks proudly and praised. At least now, things would be better between her and the Rainbomws. The girl turns to Strikespell, saying, "Well, talk to Strikespell. I'm sure he would like to hear your failures again."

Shadow Dragon frowns as he said, "Oh, I will. And trust me, it won't be a pleasant chat..."

-------------

Now the scene changes to where we find both Sombra & Chrysalis were both in special chains to keep whatever powers & such the two have in check. They were being pushed to enter a military vehicle in which Azure Phoenix watch from the sidelines to approach slowly with a stern face. When both defeated foes entered their heavy duty vehicle to transport the criminals to a safe prison house, one trooper came up to the commander to give a report of this scene.

“Sir, both fugitives are now well underhand.” A soldier saluted to his commander in stating the full restraint motion of the enemy foes.

“Good, then get them out of my sight. After what they caused from before behind the scenes of leading Boris’s group & now with this action, they’re lucky they don’t get the death sentence.” Azure Phoenix issued off in wanting Sombra & Chrysalis to be taken away, from their past crimes to now, they’ll get a sentence that will keep them behind bars for some time.

“Roger that sir!” The soldier saluted back in having heard the orders there.

“How could this have happened, victory was within our reach!” Sombra complained off to say this in how close they were to having won this.

“This isn’t the end, we will have our comeback, mark my words!” Chrysalis remarked off angrily to Azure Phoenix in stating this battle was far from over.

“Doubt it, as far as the Dark Terrorists think of you, if you failed them & are detain from power, then your usefulness ends here.” Shadow Dragon shook his head in being the wiser soldier in what must be reality that these two won’t be getting any help from those that will leave them to rot.

“Grrrr…..” Chrysalis growls in looking frustrated so much, she could explode. “You haven’t won yet! Either this side or another world, you will all suffer!” She lectures off that this bunch has not won anything, only delay the inevitable that will come from where evil from this world or the next, shall win.

“We know about another world that exist, we know that there is a force even greater than the Deception menace. One that even brought the planet to be swallowed a blackhole & vanished without a trace!” Sombra exclaimed off in already knowing what was likely a world of pony versions of themselves, and in that place called Equestria exist evil, and a powerful force of evil that could have destroyed an entire planet they live in in one fell swoop.

“If you think your military weapons or mutant powers are enough, even with the Autobots, then whoever the enemy is from another world….will make you squirm.” Chrysalis made off a sly wicked smile in stating this fact that no matter what this bunch does, no matter how strong they are, they are still powerless compared to an enemy of unimaginable strength that lies beyond their worldly dimension of the realm they live in.

Soon the vehicle took the two enemies away & were eventually out of sight. But even still, Azure Phoenix felt uncomfy from having absorb their words.

“Don’t let them patronize you sir, they’re speaking nonsense from a loss.” Shadow Dragon tried to help ease Azure Phoenix from having been absorbing that trash talk from the defeated dogs who’s bark are as bad as their bite.

“Even so, they’re right. The Twilight Sparkle from another world has enemies….enemies more powerful than we can imagine.” Azure Phoenix responded off noticing this as a true fact; that there indeed exist a powerful enemy force group that they can only imagine how terrifying that even one foe must be. “And whoever is the strongest of the bunch could destroy our world but choose’d to spare us….is only mocking us that we’re within the palm of their hands & nothing we do can stop it.” Azure Phoenix he tighten his hands into fist in feeling so mad, that there exist far greater threats than Dark Curse’s Dark Terrorist or even Galvatron & the Decepticons, enemies that if one was so powerful to destroy them but choose to spare them….was showing how powerless they are now.

Many of the military soldiers were stumped, seeing their commanding commander in such a state seem unnatural to them to behold. But Azure Phoenix took a deep breath to regain his composition before staring at his troops.

“Return to base, and make sure Sombra & Chrysalis are in a tight security, I don’t want any more escape prisoners….” Azure issued this off in wanting his soldiers to make sure, his prisoners won’t escape. “Just like the Dazzlings.” He narrows his eyes to two characters from the group of the Dragon Strike Force in stating this with an upset tone.

“Oh man, he’s still holding that against us!” Laxtinct slapped his forehead in seeing that was something that wasn’t gonna be gotten over anytime soon.

“What do you expect, he was bound to be mad when he learn HOW they escaped.” Steelkick pointed off that Azure Phoenix got mad when he learn the tunnel & escape vehicle for the Dazzlings were given by these two.

Soon Azure Phoenix begins to move out from here, as the rest of his army troop bunch began to move out & Dragon Strike Force also were moving out. Everything begins to darken out a bit now, as for now, things will be mostly quiet for the time being…

Chapter 7: Change in Friendship?


Shadow Dragon, his team and all of his friends were walking through the hallway of White House. Someone is going to answer for the mysterious events that occurred. Upon entering the White House, they saw both a white man in his adulthood dressed in his white formal uniform with a black vest and black pants chatting with a man at his late 50s dressed in his cyanish suit and pants.

The two stop their conversation as they saw the new arrivals. Shadow Dragon growls angrily, "Strikespell..."

The white man, known as Strikespell, spoke as if he knew that he was coming, "Ah... Shadow Dragon... Nice to see you here. I was discussing with my minister of our government affairs and situation. I hope that you had rescue our family. Isn't that right, Cunning?"

Cunning Fury smirked as he spoke, "Indeed. I hope that illegitimate son is fine and safe from his injuries, especially our little aliens' allies."

"Yes... I did... There's one thing I need to know. Why was I not inform of this?" Shadow Dragon demands furiously. The others are upset by Trixie's unknown spyhood.

"About what?" Strikespell ask as if not knowing what Shadow Dragon was on about. Then he smirks, adding, "Aw... Yes, now I remember. I require a spy to achieve it, so that we can learn more about our enemies. Rumors spread that Dark Curse is building an invasion in order to destroy his enemies. They said that he has a very powerful weapon to destroy us."

"That's not about it. You didn't inform me or my team about Trixie's mission. She was supposed to help my team, not go off to get the information without my knowledge! We're a team, not individuals."

"It's your team, not ours. There's a difference between soldiers and spies." Cunning scoffs as if dismissing what Strikespell just said. "Soldiers were meant to distract and defeat the enemies while the spy seek and bring the important information for us."

"But my family and team were supposed to be informed of this! Why?" Shadow Dragon demands furiously. He and the others felt like they were stabbed in the back by those that they are supposed to trust.

"You want to know. Can I trust you on this?" Strikespell ask, though he doesn't need an answer. The so-called ally knew what the answer is going to be.

"Okay, enough already!" Twilight snaps angrily to Strikespell. "It's great that Trixie helped us and all, but keeping her mission a secret?"

"Yeah, I thought she did it out of the changeness in her heart!" Pinkie exclaims upset.

"Yew know 'dat isn't a word, right?" Applejack ask Pinkie dryly, pointing out that 'changeness' isn't really a word.

"Yeah, but still..."

"I want to know is, why keep us in the dark?" Nyx ask Strikespell with a frown. "I thought we were friends!'

"Not me, I never like him!" Ben exclaims to Nyx bitterly, giving an annoyed look to his so-called brother on Azure's side.

"Because you disobeyed direct order from my father." Strikespell snaps at Shadow Dragon, reminding him of how he refused to destroy the Dazzlings back when they were close to victory during the last time that pony Twilight and her group came to this world. "And it proves that you were not willing to make a sacrifice to save the world. Therefore, I rely the ones who are loyal to the Cao Family, not to the intruders."

"What?!" Most of the group exclaims angrily and shocked.

"'Dat's 'de most dumbest thing we had heard!" Apple Bloom exclaims, outraged.

"Look, I know Shadow Dragon disobey an order but he got a good reason to do so!" Rarity protests angrily to Strikespell.

"With all due respect, they saved us. They saved everyone." Shadow Dragon said, reminding Strikespell that Princess Twilight Sparkle and her friends saved the world. "If it weren't for them, the sirens and enemies would have taken advantages of destroying us!"

"Is that so? Yes... You did make a valid point. But question remains - can they be trusted in the future? Will they help us or betray us?" Strikespell ask, challenging the group of the fact whatever or not that Princess Twilight and her universe group can be trusted in the near future.

"Now hang on! You're comparing them to Sentinel Prime!" Fluttershy protests, shocked by what Strikespell is implying.

"Right, that is another matter or story!" Pinkamena complains, upset by this.

"We can trust them, we made a treaty to not invade their world." Ben explains clearly to Strikespell.

"What gave you the idea otherwise?" Twilight demands to Strikespell with a deep frown. "What gave you the right?"

"In order to protect our world, we must make the world unite as one while decreasing the crimes. To do so, we will go back to our ancestors' way. Executing anyone who break the laws and peace. And to find and defeat our enemies, Cunning and I built a special project called 'Project: Avenging Ship'." Strikespell said, explaining clearly, so to speak.

Cunning opened his computer and revealed the scenes of a giant metallic yet Cybertronian Battleship-like ship. He explains what it does to the shocked group, "This is our latest invention. Built by both KSI and the Jin Intelligent Company, we have built the most powerful weapon to defend the lives from danger while destroying the invaders for good."

"You can't go and do that!" The CMC cries out in shock and denial.

"Yeah, this isn't right or a good idea!" Pinkie exclaims furiously. "Even I wouldn't make a party involving around that!"

"You built that thing and you're breaking the treaty between all parties involved." Twilight said in agreement, shocked of how far Strikespell would go and what lengths he would pull.

"They're right. This is not justice or freedom, this is fear and war. If you do that, the world will fear us. They'll think us no better than Dark Curse and his minions." Shadow Dragon said angrily, pointing out that the world would not trust the heroes if they even pull this stunt.

"True... It's better than letting imbeciles rule the world and destroying them. For generations for both mine and the rest, there were lots of them trying to prove that they're better but being stupid and useless when they never realize their weakness and limits. That is why the Wei Dynasty from Three Kingdoms lost its power to the Sima Clan." Strikespell said cruelly.

Cunning nods as he continues, "Indeed... And there were more of them who unwilling to take responsibility or even notice what they're trying to achieve. And even they were extremely stupid to do something foolish. Therefore, dynasties or kingdoms had fall so easily by some imbeciles. So today, we have survive and United. For who knows how long will our unity stands."

"That is why we cannot let this happen..."

"'Dis is insane." Applejack groans a bit, slapping her forehead in disgust. "What yer're trying 'ta do, borders on acting like tyrants!"

"Yeah, we don't need that, no one does!" Nyx exclaims in agreement. "I want to live in a world where we can have fun, do things together, and have a bright future. Not like this."

"Yeah, I mean, seriously? With guys like you in charge, who needs enemies?" Scootaloo ask angrily to Strikespell. She and her friends are shocked and appalled by this.

"This... I won't accept it. You can forget it. If I was to be involved of your project, I would chose my family over this." Shadow Dragon said in suggestion. Everyone nods and cheers in agreement. They are not going to be involved in something that will make people trade in their security for freedom!

"Very well then." Strikespell said as if expecting this. It doesn't matter, he doesn't need them. "Before you leave, I want to thank our special spy for achieving the goal so well, especially Twilight's reluctance loyalty and Ben's betrayal and disobedience to my father."

"And what are you talking about?" Sweetie demands as everyone got shocked and concerned.

"Why spy?!" Rarity ask, looking at the others, looking suspicious. "Are you talking about Trixie?"

"Nyx Sparkle... You've done so well..." Cunning said suddenly.

"What?!" Most of the group, especially ask in shock, alarm and confusion.

"What 'de hay are yew saying?!" Applejack demands angrily to Cunning.

"Nyx would never spy for you creeps!" Twilight protests in alarm and worry. "She's only a little girl."

"My little bug called Spy Seeker has been with Nyx Sparkle from the start. You were too distracted with your friends while it surveyed the area for the moment." Cunning explains clearly. Everyone is stunned. All this time, Cunning and Strikespell has been using Nyx to spy for them...and not one of them even know about it until now!

"I know and saw everything. I left it in Nyx's hair from the start." Strikespell said with a shrug, angering the others some more. "Why do you think I purposely let the school give you and her siblings away to Canterlot High? Because Twilight Sparkle is still useful to me while the rest have uplift their usefulness."

"It is true. Twilight's intellect cannot be thrown for the sake of friendship. She is vital to our projects and mission. We cannot let her go."

"Well, forget it! Twilight isn't going to continue being used for your evil and cruel ways!" Ben exclaims furiously. There's no way that he would allow Twilight to be used for whatever projects and mission that Strikespell has in mind.

"He's right. I am not your slave or anyone else's!" Twilight exclaims in defiance to Strikespell. She isn't going to be used as some slave to someone against her own will. "In fact, I quit!"

"And we will go against you if you even continue trying to use Twilight like this!" Rainbow exclaims as the others yells in agreement.

"If you dare to defy me, then you are against the world." Strikespell points out, saying that their actions will border on treason. "I'll make sure that none are against us. Because if they do, they will die. Starting with my useless half-sister..."

"You son of a jerk! I'm gonna kill you!" Ben exclaims in fury. How dare he insults Iris Crystal like this!

The others held Ben back quickly. Rarity yelps, "Ben, darling, no! He isn't worth it!"

"Right, I will only make things worst!" Golden Heart exclaims in agreement. Although he also wanted to slug Strikespell for his words, not is not the time to do so."

"Don't give up your freedom now, Ben, please!" Twilight pleads to Ben. The boy groans but calms down a bit.

"What, didn't you tell my father off? I don't need you because you're not my family. Therefore, you're not mine as well because you'll always be a pawn to me and USA. You and your father will always be the pawns to the world. And therefore, I'm thankful of that." Strikespell said emotionlessly. As far as he's concerned, Ben is no family of his if he is against him and what he and his forces are doing.

"One day... You'll know that my brother - No! Our brother is a hero! You'll regret it." Shadow Dragon snaps furiously to Strikespell. The traitor will regret what he said and did today. 

"I believe it's time for you to leave..." Cunning said, dismissing the group before he is forced to call security.

The heroes glared as they leave the room. This isn't over yet, not by a long shot. Strikespell is about to go back to what he's doing when he saw that Ben hasn't left yet, he is glaring at him.

"What? Didn't Cunning said to leave?" Strikespell ask Ben cruelly, not in the mood for any more of his outbursts and treacherous attempt.

"I will make things clear: although I wish to slug you one, I won't because you aren't worth it. You never are. One of these days, your so-called strategy will blow up in your face, and when it does, you will regret even turning into a monster and a tyrant." Ben said angrily to Strikespell, getting into his face. "And finally, stay away from my friends, my family, my school, my town, and my life!!!! As far as I'm concerned, you are no hero, you are no family at all!"

Ben then storms out, leaving Strikespell and Cunning speechless. They may have underestimated him.

---------------

Azure Phoenix was playing Chinese Chess with Jack Silver while the two principals watched the event. Jack lost the game to Azure Phoenix for five times. And trust me, he is getting frustrated each time.

"Darn it! I still don't get it. How did you know about this?!" Jack ask with a groan of frustration.

Azure just smirks as he explains, "Generations have passed down since Cao Cao's Time for both strategy in chess and skills in martial arts. That is why the Cao Family still lives in for my ancestors' legacy. And your legacy came from the troublemaking and drunken Captain Jack Sparrow.

"Not funny..."

Celestia giggled as she admits, "Azure's right. It is funny."

"No it isn't, Tia!" Jack snaps to his wife in annoyance, making Celestia shrugs.

"Okay, it isn't funny."

Twilight and her friends arrives on the scene to join the party. Applejack waves, saying, "Howdy, y'all!"

"Hey, a party and I wasn't told?" Pinkie ask, a bit crushed. "I wanted to join in."

"Everyone, it's good to see you." Celestia said, hugging her son, relieved that he's all right. The woman notices the upset look on Ben and the others' faces. "Ben?"

"Is there any problem?" Luna ask in concern, she has a feeling that something has happened.

"We just came back from visiting that stupid jerk Strikespell." Rainbow scoffs as she crosses her arms. "He and Cunning had made a stupid battleship and is going to turn the world in a Soviet state!"

"Is that what he's doing?" Celestia ask in shock and concern. She can't believe that Strikespell would do this. Then again, the principal always suspect that he is not to be trusted.

"What he's doing is going against the treaty that was made when we defeated the Dazzlings and their allies." Fluttershy said worried. "Azure Phoenix? You got to go back to your station."

"Right, I had quit my spying thing already. I can't do it anymore!" Twilight pleads to Azure in worry. "You got to put a stop to it."

Azure sighs, shaking his head as he said, "I told you before. I am no longer involved in government affair or military, except for some. My son is now. And he's indeed the right heir to fulfill it. It's like Cao Cao whom passed his position to Cao Pi. My son was right about one thing. We are repeating history. There was one thing it never change - war and the fall of kingdoms. Because if that continues, we'll be reduced into nothingness."

"But he's becoming a tyrant!" Nyx protests in concern to Azure. "I don't want to live the rest of my life in fear!"

"Come on, Azure, y'all. Do 'de right thing an' come back!" Apple Bloom exclaims in sadness.

"Right, you can't let this go on." Ben said to Azure, trying to reason with his mother's former husband. "Otherwise, the whole world will be against everyone else!"

"Why? Why did you want me return to my position? I thought you hated me a lot for using you as my pawns. I treat Iris Crystal as equal as you for being part of my family. I still always have loved your mother. But your father was a perfect match for her since he has a heart while mine... I'm like Cao Cao..." Azure said bitterly to the group.

"But this is crazy! You only quit because you felt bad for how you reacted during the Dazzlings incident!" Twilight points out in worry to Azure and former boss.

"Yeah, you aren't like Cao Cao, at least the bad parts." Fluttershy said in sadness and worry.

"Is it about Ben telling you off?" Sunset ask with a frown, suspecting that Ben telling Azure off is the reason why he quit. "And you think he hated you?"

"Azure, I never hated you. I just wish you stop choosing my life. I am a man of my own. But I'm also have to be grateful too. Because if you hadn't come and help me and my dad, we would have ended up as poor. And not to mention, I wouldn't have met Twilight." Ben said in concern, pointing out that he never hated Azure. He just want him to stop trying to control his life. "So please... Come back. Be secretary for once..."

"I appreciate it. But my answer is no. I retired to be Military Commanding Officer." Azure said in sadness. The others look worried, he isn't going to do the right thing. "After all, I'm too old and weak. And I cannot interfere in affairs. My son is in that position for now..."

"But Mr. Azure..." Fluttershy said in sadness. "Please..."

"If this keeps up, Strikespell will be worst as Dark Curse and his pals." Pinkie said in concern, feeling like her hair deflating a bit. "Don't let him get away with this."

"If you respect me so much, I want you to leave me alone. I'm retired. But I'll help you if you have doubts and in some cases, but not in government." Azure said with a sigh, turning around as to now wanting to resume this conversation. "Now leave me... Rhino and Anger, take my guests away."

Rhino and Anger nods as they lead the new guests away. Celestia and Luna looks disappointed, but in Azure for simply giving up and not doing the right thing. The two women follows the group as did Jack who doesn’t want to be in the same room as his wife’s former husband right now. Azure sighs, looking down. All he's doing is turning his loved ones away.

Schemetrick in concern points out, "You're getting rude and aggressive these days, sir..."

Azure sighed, "I know... But sometimes I asked myself - am I worthy to Cao Cao? Am I a hero or villain? People these days used the story and history to make him as villainous character than hero."

"All I can say is that decision and choice is yours to make. Your decision is mostly firm and understandable. You and your son are worthy to Cao Cao and Cao Pi from Wei Dynasty."

"Perhaps... Or perhaps not, it matters nothing because in the end, it's whether the world can live for the next day. Extinction is not far from behind."

Schemetrick nods as he adds, "You're right once again. It's not far from behind..."

---------------------------

Trixie sees the price tag for the really cool guitar that she and Rainbow were competing for and silently think to herself, "There is NO way I could afford this without robbing my father and there is NO way I would be stupid enough to rob my father just to try to pay for a twelve thousand dollar guitar. I might not like him much, but he leaves me alone as long as I keep my nose out of his business and I have enough interest in my own health to KEEP IT that way."

The girl looks to see the Rainbooms, sitting outside a café. Trixie nods as she comes over to join them.

"Oh great, come to gloat some more?" Rainbow ask Trixie in irritation. "We know about your spyhood now, Trixie."

"No, Trixie came to mingle. I am shocked when I overheard your conversation with that jerk Strikespell. He told me to help out just to save Boris...I didn't know he would make a battleship that would turn the world into a Soviet Union like state!" Trixie exclaims, insisting innocence. "So Trixie told him that I quit."

"Well good for you." Rarity said with a sigh, checking out her Ipad. "The world is turning into a scary place."

"Well, we will have to make it unscary!" Pinkie exclaims, hanging upside down. "We will just continue having fun and stop the baddies like Strikespell and the Dark Terrorists meanies!"

"Trixie, yew can join us if yew want." Applejack said to Trixie, much to her surprise.

"After what Tr...I mean, I did to you before?" Trixie ask Applejack in amazement.

"Well, yew did helped out in 'de ticket sales...an' if we could give Sunset another chance, we shall fer yew."

Trixie pauses, then smiles as she sat down at the table with the Rainbooms. It begins a new beautiful friendship.

And who knows? Someday, Trixie will see Boris again when he gets out or become human. Give or take.

----------------

By next morning, the students greeted and treated Sunset well. They even talk with each other, study together and play together. The girl smiles, at least most of the school is no longer hostile towards her. She is doing better than ever!

"You girls go on ahead... There's something I need to see." Sunset said to her friends with a smile.

"Well, whatever you got planned, we can respect it." Rainbow remarks with a shrug, suspecting that Sunset got a reason for wanting to see for a moment.

"Not sure what it is, but okay." Applejack said with a nod of agreement.

"I understand. Don't forget tomorrow rehearsal, and then five days later - the event." Twilight said, reminding her friend of an important event that is happening: a big concert for the Rainbooms' fans. Despite the unpleasantness by Strikespell, life moves on.

"Got it." Sunset said as she heads off, leaving her friends to wonder. What is she going to be seeing?

------------------------

On the rooftop, Sunset was looking at the beautiful sky and sun. She smiled at it, it's great to have a nice day without all that trouble to be dealing with.

Wheelie rolls in, spotting Sunset standing there. He rolls up, asking, "What are you smiling at?"

Sunset smiled as she answers her robot friend, "Do you know how happy I really am? I really do. Flare Tiger was right. If I did make some friends, everything's okay. I saved the world and my friends. I even got my boyfriend back. This is my happiest moment. My past is not today because tomorrow is a new day..."

The scene begins to open up in where we find Sunset Shimmer on the roof of Canterlot High at the dusk part of dawn. She was apparently alone, as she stares at the sun that was before her. Without knowing it, a musical beat began to be played, and at that moment, it made Sunset feel something…an urge to say something; or in this case, sing it!

Sunset Shimmer: Power
Was all I desired (I desired, I desired)
But all that grew inside me
Was the darkness I acquired 

Sunset moves away from the edge of the roof to gaze at the glass dome to stare at it with a frown…as if recalling events from what happened to her. As the pastor the Fall Formal are reflected of when the girl obtain the Element Of Magic from Twilight’s crown

When I began to fall
And I lost the path ahead
That's when your friendship found me
And it lifted me instead

Scene events of the Past show Sunset groaning from the negative power of the element, morphing her into what she became; Demonic Sunset Shimmer. But in the end, that new evil was stop by the rainbow power from the magic of friendship, leaving the girl in a deep crater & reverted to her human form. But as if having suffered a lost, a hand was reached out to Susnet, it was Pony Twilight in her human form along with the rest of the Mane Five humans that wish to help the girl. Sunset took their hand, which started the fallen girl on the right path.

Like a phoenix burning bright
In the sky
I'll show there's another side to me
You can't deny

Sunset raced around the glass dome of the roof top of the school, & reached out her hand…as if wanting to reach a shooting star that burn like a phoenix in the sky. Sunset clutch her fist to her, stating off that she’ll show many that there is another side to her…more than what she was in the past.

I may not know what the future holds
But hear me when I say
That my past does not define me
'Cause my past is not today

Sunset turns to look at the school’s clock tower, wanting to proclaim something, before she turns to look at the glass dome. That’s when she glared at an illusion reflection of her evil Demonic She-Demon self that smirked at her, as if that little evil still existed in Sunset Shimmer. But Sunset instead made a firm motion to brush off her evil self in the reflection as it vanished with a shock face of what has happened to cause a change. Sunset approached the glass dome to touch her hand to it, expressing herself to which she showed a little smile forming…feeling her first step towards redemption is near.

Now the scene changes to what was likely inside the school where photos of Sunset Shimmer of the past was crown Princess of the Fall Formal; back when she was evil…

Ambition
Is what I believed
Would be the only way
To set me free

We find Sunset looking over the photos of what she USED to be, likely touching them which makes her feel…sorrow in how that was what she used to be, a bully who controlled the school. But then she got serious, took down her three photos of the past 3 Fall Formals, then thrown them into the trash can which she let off a big sigh…feeling like some relief to put the past of such things behind her.

But when it disappeared
And I found myself alone
That's when you came and got me
And it felt like I was home

The scene shows a blurry flashback of where Sunset was trying to smile & greet her class mates, but many of them showed frown expressions or looked away. Making Sunset feel a bit sad in knowing they have not forgotten what she did during the Fall Formal, soon the girl looked down in feeling that she was all alone now. Or was she? For then Pony Twilight & the Main Five reach out their hands to help relieve Sunset in saying she was not alone, she had a place to be with them…which made her smile. The flashback of the memory faded to show a smiling Sunset on the roof, feeling herself motivated now…

Like a phoenix burning bright
In the sky
I'll show there's another side to me
You can't deny

Sunset felt so motivated, that she ran a bit before throwing off her leather jacket into the air to be blown away by the wind. And as she ran, she did not noticed that her body began to glow with pure yellow magical aura force as she stretched herself upwards to express her desire to show another side of herself to all.

I may not know what the future holds
But hear me when I say
That my past does not define me
'Cause my past is not today

Sunset looks down over the roof top of the school, seeing the sun slowly set, but the girl felt herself feeling something good inside she wanted to express outwards. Then without warning, Sunset began to rise up from the ground as she proudly expressed her inner emotion….The magic aura took form in making her hair stand up straight like wild fire, and an aura form of wings & a tail are seen; it’s like the girls taken on a phoenix-form to feel she has become a rising phoenix. As the song was coming to a close, Sunset felt within herself, that at long last…she has risen anew like a phoenix, to start life anew….this time, for the better….

As the song is over, Sunset turns back to normal. A familiar voice spoke up, "Amazing voice of singing. You're truly like a bird of song. No wonder she chose you in her place."

Sunset is startled to see Schemetrick and Flash nearby, smiling in approval. The girl exclaims, "Minister Schemetrick! Flash, what are you both doing here?"

"Check on you. But never thought that you're singing about how happy you are." Flash said to his girl with a chuckle. "In truth, I'm also happy. To see you smile is important to me."

Sunset smiled, commenting, "Thanks. But Schemtrick, why Lord Azure won't return to his place?" Azure should've done the right thing and return to his post. So why not now?

Schemetrick gave a serious look to the former villainess. He explains the reason why, "Power... Do you know how frighten yet great the power is? If one is not careful with it, it will lead to disaster or peace. Since last year event, Azure has questioned himself of whether he should make a better world or leave it to someone capable to bring forth the peace. Because if any decision he decides, there will always be serious consequences."

"If you choose to continue, you'll be corrupted. If you choose not, then you'll be freed and do what is right, I know that well because I've been there before in my life."

"You understand well. Now you know why he never returns but hope that his son do what is right for himself and the world."

Sunset sighed, "I hope so." The girl however is worried as to how far Strikespell would go to try to save the world. His plan may blow up in his face someday.

Wheelie whistled, "She is one sexy and good looking lady, even if she's a wise woman. I wish Mikaela was like her, if I want to see her body. That'd be awesome and great."

Flash whacked Wheelie's head, annoyed by the comment. He scowls, "Don't even think about it! I'm keeping an eye on you."

"Great... Just what I need - another Witwicky Boy..."

"Come on, Sunset. We'd better get going."

Sunset smiled as she takes Flash by the hand, saying, "Right. Let's do it."

------------------

In Prison, Sombra is upset and angry, but not about the defeat at the hands of his enemies, but something else. 

"How could they....Crimson Skull.....the Dark Terrorists......traitors! They left me to be captured and even my colleague Chrysalis can't help me now..............I've been betrayed & abandoned.............." During the moment, he slams his right fist on the floor in raged while he yells and he pants faintly.

"It’s hard to take when one is betrayed & abandoned by ones he followed to the end and only to be rejected, when it was your own desires that lead you here." Spoke a female's voice during Sombra's emotion temper.

"You better leave, female, or you will be sorry.......uh..." Sombra was about to snap off at who he heard until he turns looking at the one who spoke to him and he is surprised seeing who it is it. A girl who is an adult female. Her skin is blue and her hair is purple and it faintly glittered from the light outside, her eyes were blue and they lightly sparkle. She was wearing a simple outfit like most girls wear and a picture of a grain of wheat is seen on the right side of her smooth skirt. "Either it is an effect from the light, but you seem to sparkle like a Crystal." Sombra stares at her puzzled in stating what he sees.

"You sure seem to not act like what I am told." The girl was faintly surprised as a little red spreads on her cheeks while having made this calm to look at him.

"As you see, I can't, I am chained to the floor." Sombra held up his hands in showing that he's chained to the ground.

"Because it is how you really feel in your heart." The girl responded off to mention this.

"What are you talking about & what is your name?" Sombra narrow his eyes in wanting to ask of this.

"Well, my name is Autumn Gem. Assigned as a therapist, I was sent here to change your ways and rehabilitated you." The girl introduced herself now. 

"I am not an animal, you know." Sombra narrow his sights at the girl as if uninterested.

"Have to admit, it can be confusing because you’re right, but how would reformed sound?" Autumn Gem stated off in saying this part.

"Fine, I guess." Sombra looked away in scuffing that change fact.

Sometime goes by and as the two talked, something was stirring within. The two seem to be making progress while it seem like Sombra felt closer to the girl's mind & acts.

"Um Sombra, I been meaning to ask your eyes....why do I see a tint of red but green and purple as if they would put fear into others souls?" Autumn Gem asked off of something she thought.

"You know......my eyes were once red once, I wasn't evil back then." That made Sombra lower his head while letting out a long sigh.

"R-really...?" Autumn Gem slowly asked in being intrigued.

"No one would even care they all fear me because of what I am and what I have done, no one will care about my fate." As Sombra spoke this off in grief, he feels a right hand on his shoulder before he sees Autumn Gem giving a innocent look along with a smile.

"I am here to help you. Tell me your story.” Autumn Gem kindly stated this off to say.

Sombra felt silent when he heard this, but soon gave in after he asked if the girl would listen to which she nodded. Then Sombra told his tale of when before he grew up to be a man, he wanted to make friends, but found out that life may bring joy or bring pain. Time went by as he explain when he was a teen, of how his eyes use to be while he always picked on and some teasing, pretending to be scared, some even trying to scare him while no one even cared that he was alone, no family. Treated unfairly by those who were cruel, hateful & relentless, made him so angry that he wanted them to feel how I felt, but when he did get what he wanted, it was not as one hoped. Eventually the story came up to when he was to be given aid by strangers that saw much more to him than meets the eye, they were Chrysalis & those connected to the Dark Terrorists. They help set Sombra down the wrong path & he's been down the wrong path letting negative & dark emotions cloud his judgments all this time.

"Oh Sombra, that all sounds terrible!" Autumn Gem stated in feeling like there was a loose tear escaping her eye.

"Yes, but even still, I rip what I sow...now my own allies won't get me out of this, and Azure Phoenix probably wants me to rot like some beast." Sombra sighs to say this in admitting this matter.

"That is not true, you are no monster." Autumn Gem shook her head to state this.

"Then what do you see then, tell me." Sombra narrow his eyes to ask this off.

"A poor man who's suffering eternal pain trapped alone within the darkness alone, no one did anything to help you, but only used you." Autumn Gem explained this with a firm tone.

"And with that, I'm alone." Sombra rolled his eyes to look away to sulk.

"No, not alone...I'm here with you." Autumn Gem wrapped her arms around Sombra by surprise to issue this off gently, making the guy sigh faintly.

"Only because you’re a therapist, that is the only reason your here. If you were not, you would be like the rest." To Sombra, this girl would be just like anyone else trying to help mend his ways." Sombra issued this off in knowing it's just the girl's job, nothing else.

"Maybe together, we can make something happen...maybe...go a little deeper in our understanding." When Autumn Gem said this to hold Sombra's hand, his cheeks were faintly red in realizing what the girl whose face was also red was saying.

"Oh, pardon me...but...it sounds like you...care more than you let on." Sombra asked off in feeling surprised, not even Chrysalis was this nice to him, or...as lovely as the one here.

"I suppose strange occurrences happen in the strangest of places." Autumn Gem issued this off to say.

"Even in prison?" Sombra raised an eyebrow to ask this strange question.

"Especially, you never know...what lies waiting to be a light in the dark?" Autumn stated this to say with an honest smile.

"And, will that light guide me?" Sombra looked down in feeling uncertain until...

"I think, she might just." Autumn Gem places her hand on Sombra's cheek to smile in happily stating this.

Sombra doesn't know what is going on, but something stirs up inside he never felt as he shut his eyes to let loose tears, as he sniffs before Autumn Gem hugs him as he hugs back to embrace the feeling of being understood. Meanwhile in a room with cameras watching what was going on, Azure Phoenix was watching on a monitor as a worker comes to him to state of the report of Sombra's little rehabilitation at hand.

"Um, sir, should I remove the girl?" A worker asked the one in charge about Autumn Gem.

"No." Azure Phoenix stated this off without blinking an eye.

"But sir, he's hostile." The worker pointed out about Sombra.

"If he was, he would of harmed Autumn Gem the moment she got close." Azure Phoenix stated off with a firm tone in noticing how things were going.

"So, what do we do about him now?" The worker asked off in what they do next here.

"Let her do the job she's paid to do, if she can fix this mess, then we won't have to keep him here long before he rejoins society." Azure Phoenix sternly explained that if the girl can change Sombra, then he'll be one less threat to be handling. "For the most, he was basically nothing more than a pawn in Crimson Skull's Game of Chess, and any piece that can't return to the board...is useless."

"It's still is strange why that pink girl named Pinkamena requested this therapist be assigned to help Sombra, why would she bother?" The worker stated in finding how this came to be was from that one random girl from Canterlot High.

"I heard she clash with him and noticed something. Otherwise, as I have dealt with Laxtinct's random actions, Pinkamena is just another random being that likes to do some unorthodox means of actions? Just let those two be & report further developments." Azure Phoenix explained in how from the final battle before Chrysalis was caught along with Sombra, Pinkamena clash to notice something off with Sombra which could have led to this.

"Yes sir!" The worker saluted to the commander who was leaving the scene.

Things begin to fad out while the scene shows one last time of Sombra & Autumn Gem in a hug embrace moment. As for what happens next with the two, is anyone's guess within the future...

---------------------

Iris Crystal smiled, "Alright, everyone. Let's get started. Remember the lyrics and moves too. This is very important. And I want the world to see it. Instead of violence, anger and fear to win the war, we have to try to use our hearts, reasons and love of friendship to break through it. Alright then, let's do it. Action!"

With the word has been given, the cameramen shoot their camera at the scenes with some lights lighting on it and microphones held high to retrieve the sound. Iris Crystal had her eyes glowed in white as everything slowly turned into European's Palace-like. 

The scene begins to open up on a certain musical stage for a classical theme, where pain music can be heard. There we find what looks like Twilight dressed up to be playing the piano while Sunset was seen sitting on the top. Everything was going good, nothing was wrong, they were just enjoying themselves. Then suddenly, the music began to be turn into a song right about now…

Twilight Sparkle: Nothin' stays the same for long
But when it changes doesn't mean it's gone
Time will always get away
As it leaves behind another day

Twilight sang this out before she stood up to look with a smiling face towards a smiling Sunset. Twilight exclaimed this statement towards Sunset Shimmer before moving off on the stage to sign this off. As Sunset watched, the scenery changes to where Fluttershy was seen running through a hilly field with her animal friends.

Fluttershy: Things may come and things may go
Some go fast and some go slow
Few things last, that's all I know
But friendship carries on through the ages

As Fluttershy sang out, birds flew fast & she look down to see dandelions o the ground before picking one. The girl held the dandelion out for Sunset to blow as the seeds are seen blown off across the wind to scatter all over…just like how friendship can be spread out all over. Then the scenery changes to where we see Rarity in her Sgt. Pepper-esque outfit in a psychedelic background.

Rarity and Fluttershy: Things may come and things may go
Some go fast and some go slow
Few things last, that's all I know
But friendship carries on through the ages

As the song was being heard, Rarity walked across & even step on growing giant flowers to reach a new bud that opens up to reveal Sunset inside. Sunset yelps from almost losing balance, but Rarity help her to her flower as they saw that flower shrank down. But Rarity held Sunset’s hand to claim this with assurance about their friendship, as they smile to where their plant soars up high to carry them on. Then the background changes to a metal-style verse, with Rainbow Dash rocking it out with a rock band behind her.

Rainbow Dash: Been around for a long time
Rockin' out hard 'cause I'm in my prime
Maybe it'll change further down the line
But my friendship carries on through the ages

As Rainbow Dash Dash sang this off, she was talking about friendship been around through the rocking ages. And as she sang, & held up a fist to cheer, Sunset Shimmer was being happily carried off by the crowd and was liking this. As Rainbow Dash finished off making her point, she did what any rocker does on stage, held up her electric guitar, and SMASH IT on stage, breaking it off (hey, it’s a classy rocker tradition that some do or don’t do to excite a crowd). That’s when the background changes to a country-style verse on a farm, where Applejack is seen on the fence playing her instrument.

Applejack: Every single style has somethin'
Different it can say
There's nothin' wrong with being unique
And special in your own way

Applejack sings this off mighty fine & proudly, Sunset was seen riding what is an ACTUAL Human World Horse, Blade Dragoon's crimson warhorse Red Hare, to AJ who feeds the said horse an apple. Next shows the two girls doing a ‘Ho-Down’ dance step in which Sunset was doing hers in her own way. Then without warning, the scene became all polygon & pixel related, before scattering to replace it with, glam-pop style verse with Pinkie Pie taking over. 

Pinkie Pie: Maybe you wanna be a pop star
Get your fifteen minutes of fame, wha, ah! Ah, oh!
That won't last forever
But friendship remains the same, ah-oh, oh!

Pinkie Pie sang this off to ski down an electric keyboard like they were a walkway or pole rod or something, then was on a spot to get pictures taken. The next scene shows her & Sunset on a strange yellow circle with them acting as if they are clock hands as Pinkie Pie waved off on the ‘ah, oh’, the next scene shows a virtual Sunset Shimmer on a vector grid, pulled her out to become dimensional, as Pinkie’s face was like a mine scatter puzzle to which it replace it’s self with the form of a smiling Sunset. That’s where things went dark for a bit while a group of shadows are seen…

The Rainbooms sans Sunset Shimmer: Things may come and things may go
Some go fast and some go slow
Few things last, that's all I know
But friendship carries on through the ages

Slowly showing themselves were Rarity on bottom left, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie above from left to right, then at the bottom with Applejack on the right to Twilight in the middle. Then afterwards, a slid board shows up on screen to show each of the Rainbooms in their own verse style.

The Rainbooms: Things may come and things may go
Some go fast and some go slow
Few things last, that's all I know
But friendship carries on through the ages
Ooohhh, oh, carries on......

Pinkie squealed happily, "One more time! Encore for the fans!"

"Yeah!" Rainboom exclaimed proudly.

Everything transformed into the school's music stage where the crowd cheered wildly and happily. Ben, Flash, Shadow Dragon, Iris Crystal and others were standing behind the stage.

"One, two, three! GO!" Pinkie exclaimed happily.

The Rainbooms played with their own instruments, danced and sang wildly and happily, along with the crowds to sing together.

Rainbooms: Things may come and things may go
Some go fast and some go slow
Few things last, that's all I know
But friendship carries on through the ages

Things may come and things may go
Some go fast and some go slow
Few things last, that's all I know
But friendship carries on through the ages

Things may come and things may go
Some go fast and some go slow
Few things last, that's all I know
But friendship carries on through the ages
Ooohhh, oh, carries on......

With song ended, the crowd went wild. The Rainbooms take the bow before the cheering crowds. 

The girls are singing & expressing their own thoughts & feelings that all share one thing in common. They each look to the other in singing this off with smiles, as then appearing on a record that spin pass them was a smiling Sunset who sings along. Now Sunset was seen in her on skid board in the middle of her friends, as the board background of style verse themes vanish, as the seven girls sang this off in a stretching note moment. At that final part of the song, everyone gathers near Sunset Shimmer to perform a group hug in showing the vail of friendship they carry on throughout any ages…That was the closure of the song, showing that no matter the age, no matter how fast or slow things go, friendship will carry on….

Iris Crystal got on stage, calling out to the crowd, "Always remember! Friendship always be there no matter what ages you'll always have friends to be there for you. No matter what species we are, we'll always be best friends till the end. And one day, someday - the world can finally peace. So let's give applause to our performance - the Rainbooms!"

The Main Six and Sunset smiles, enjoying the words of wisdom. They are so true there.

Ben smiles as he turns to Flash and Shadow Dragon, saying, "You know...Iris should be the one to be Secretary. She's way better."

Flash nods in agreement, "Yeah... I wonder why."

Shadow Dragon sighed, "You should know that. She wants to teach the students to be better and good citizens, not bad. That's her main reason and concern."

"Yeah... I hope everything is okay..." Ben said in concern, wondering what the future holds for everyone.

"Are you going to do something about Strikespell?" Flash ask Ben in concern. The heroes can't just stand there and allow Strikespell to do what he's planning on doing. It isn't right!

"No. We will just move on with our lives. Strikespell's strategy will blow up in his face, and when it does...well, we will have to bail him out, most likely."

------------

Speaking of the idea, Strikespell is trying his best to crack the drive's code. Despite the opposition from the Rainbooms, the Shadow Strike Force, their forces, etc. as well as Twilight and Trixie quitting their spying job, he is determined to continue on with his POV. Of course, he tried to crack into the drive's code but failed.

Strikespell notice something odd: the name on the drive belongs to him. He mumbles, "Why would the drive have my name? These belong to Guildenstern. Why? What are you up to, you mad scientist?"

"Sir." A soldier came into the room, looking worried. "Those items we confiscated from Chrysalis and Sombra? They're missing."

"What?! How the heck could they be missing?!'

"We don't know, sir. They up and vanish! It's as if someone took them without us noticing!"

Now this is a mystery. Who stole the potions, technology, etc. that belonged to the two new prisoners? And for what purpose?

Dark Curse looks pleased as things are getting set up. He was lucky that his inside informant inside his enemies had got the paws on the stuff that was confiscated from Chrysalis and Sombra. Those two outlived their usefulness and now? Their items are given to two individuals that Dark Curse knew he would trust.

"It's a good thing that none learn of Project End. And now, we can finally proceed it." Dark Curse said cruelly. "Both within and outside are progressing well. We shall slowly weaken the great dynasty and empire to nothingness. Our enemies know nothing. History shall repeat again. It goes so well. It's all thanks to you, Guildenstern..."

The screen turned on and revealed a skeleton yet demonically pinkish figure with serpent's head. He chuckled insanely, "Thank you... My liege... They have no idea of what happens next."

"Send word to Smaug, Galvatron and Cobra Commander that our destiny will come true..."

In an unknown place, Sombra's telekinesis helmet and his last few canisters of fear gas was delivered to a man Smaug, who looks on with interest. Sombra made foolish choices and now? His stuff belongs to Smaug.

Smaug comment, "This is some interesting technology. Too bad Sombra wasted the genius that allowed him to build this impressive gear on extorting a SCHOOL. The brains of a super-genius stuck in a body ruled by teenaged hormones. Somebody with MY ambition could put it to FAR better use."

--------------------

In a laboratory, a figure known as Doctor Lizardo receive a delivery of the same gadgets and potions Chrysalis stole from Sombra to give herself super-powers. Yes, these items will be of use to him in the near future...

----------------

"Okay, we should be ready." Twilight said as she and Sunset, along with Pinkie are finished with a gadget.

"Are you okay, Twilight?" Sunset ask in concern. "Now that you are out of the spy business, what?"

"Well, I am still attending Crystal Prep, but I will be darned if I will continue being some slave to someone who wants to use fear and mistrust to his advantage."

"Right. We will move on, and hope for the best."

"Got things ready, Twiley!" Pinkie exclaims happily to her friend.

Twilight nods as she press a button, getting the gadget activated. Ever since she heard so much of her pony self and Equestria, the girl wanted to make this, to communicate with beings from other universes, maybe herself one day.

Soon an image appears as a power-ring-wearing unicorn in a super-hero costume appears, saying, "Hello. This is the Purple Magic Horn. Who is this?"

Human Twilight smiles in triumph. Looks like she will be having a great conversation tonight!

Within Tartarus from within the palace, Grimmore is seen upon his thrown. From there, two portals of Dark Curse & the Superior are viewing something that was a orbital sphere showing events that have happened within the Human Realm. The Rainbooms event with Sombra & Chrysalis to even the aftermath of seeing a Cybertronain battleship looking structure made from Human Strikespell. The Three Lords observe this with some peek of interest...

"Even in another world, Strikespell still acts as he does in this one." Dark Curse spoke off in seeing someone from the Mystics was acting the same even as a different creature from another world.

"It would appear that such events of our two worlds has cause such matters." Superior stated to say in seeing how such things have turnabout.

"Yes, fear is motivation, the power to which either it consumes all or destroys everything in sight." Grimmore smiled off in being intrigue by how things have developed when the weak fear the strong.

"Still, with this Project: Avenging Ship, it may pose some challenge. I shall go & quickly end it." Superior stated to say in knowing that he'll go into the Human World, & end the secret project before it begins.

"No need, after all...it will be amusing. They will strive to put such hopes that this will end the war, only to watch as their greatest victory...crumbles beneath unknown might." Grimmore spoke forth in stopping the Superior with a more sinister thought in mind; let the so-called government of the human world put hope in their powerful weapon...before watching that hope die.

"I quite frankly agree, even those humans with their best at making technology or using alien tech to even mutation for superpowers...will not be enough." Dark Curse stated to say in agreeing with the Demon God, the human world has only so little achievements compared to what they possess.

"Indeed, they could barely do much when Fafnir was there, & he prove to be outside their league. Yet still, he is still beneath the rank of the Three Lords." Superior nods off to agree that even when they saw such strong humans fight Fafnir to even his Dragon form, both the military & the alien Transformers known as Autobots were not even close to stopping such a powerful foe that was also below the Three Lords of Equestria.

"Which is why, when the time comes...they shall learn that no matter their struggle to survive..." Grimmore spoke forth to say this, before an evil expression is see that could frighten all eyes. "There will be those, one cannot reach even if it takes a millennia. And when we invade...their world shall fall into a dark abyss..." Grimmore issue this off darkly in which from a wicked grin, they will invade & nothing the human world can do will stop them.

With that, the Superior & Dark Curse began to let off evil laughter that were joined by Grimmore as everything begins to go dark now. For to the greatest forces of evil in all of Equestria Prime, the humans from another world or any dimension, will be nothing before the might of that which will bring an end to all things. How will things go when such a time comes, that...is a mystery left for another day....and another time to be told...


The End
