> Equestria’s Super Android > by DryvernX > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Z fighters the protectors of earth, were having trouble today. They are in a final battle, against Super 17, the ultimate android. By merging both Android 17 and Hell Android 17, they created the ultimate android, Super 17. Goku and Android 17 are the only ones left standing against his might. They battle in a small wilderness. There was a small(but not young) boy who has a tail, have blue clothes, and black hair, that's Goku. Then there is a woman who appears to be between 30-40, and blond hair. That's Android 18. And lastly, there is a very tall and slender man, with black hair, and clothes that appears from something a bad boy would wear. That's Super 17, the opponent they're battling. And is one of the strongest villains ever existed. Goku and Android 18 shot multiple energy attacks at Super 17. But to no avail, for Super 17 had the power to absorb any energy attack. The more he absorbs, the stronger he becomes. Super 17 merely chuckled of Goku and Android 18's pointless attacks. "18, it's not working, he is absorbing your power, you can't beat him!" Goku said worried. "He killed Krillin!" Android 18 said ignoring Goku's warning. She continue blasting Super 17. "I understand, but the energy blasts are only making him stronger!" Goku said, still trying to reason with Android 18. "I can't stop now. When i stop, i die!" 18 said. Super 17 continues absorbing 18's energy blasts. He screams menacingly and laughs. "He is not absorbing the blasts. He is juicing himself. That means he can be hit!. That means he can get hit. He is vulnerable, this is our chance." Goku thought, and realizes the opportunity to attack him. "FIRE 18!. Don't stop! I have a plan, keep it up!" Goku said, now having a plan to take Super 17 down. 18 screams while doing so. Goku then gains an aura. Super 17 meanwhile continues laughing at what appears to be 18's pointless acts. "YES! That's it, give it everything you got 18, let it all out. I'm just sitting here gathering energy so i can destroy you when you're finished!" Super 17 yelled. Not realizing that Goku is ready again. "Maybe not." Goku said vanishing from view, and then appears in front of 18. He then charges between 18's blasts. "This is for krillin!" Goku said, still charging at Super 17. "What?" Super 17 said shocked, now seeing Goku charging at him. Just as soon as Goku is very close to Super 17. Goku now attacks with one of his most powerful techniques. The Dragon Fist. An image of a golden Chinese dragon then appears close to Goku's fist. He charges and penetrates right at Super 17, piercing a hole in the super android. Super 17 is very shocked. "Argh you witch" Super 17 said in agony. Right behind Super 17. Goku puts his hand in a circular way, then a energy ball appears between his hands. Goku now charges his well known ki technique. the Kamehameha wave. "Ka...!" "Me...!" "Hame...!" Super 17 turns around, seing Goku charging the Kamehame wave. "Fool, haven't you learned yet! It will only make me stronger!" Super 17 yelled at Goku. "I don't think so... HA!" Goku said, ignoring Super 17's warning, and now fires the fully charged Kamehameha wave at Super 17. Super 17 stood there, and to his surprise, it actually hit him, right in the same hole Goku pierced. Super 17 in agony was very shocked. "Yes we did it Krillin." Android 18 said happily, seeing that Goku has managed to blast Super 17. Super 17's body slowly gets disintegrated by Goku's kamehameha wave, until there was nothing left of him. Goku then lands happily on the ground. They have finally defeated the ultimate android. But was it the end of the ultimate android? Super 17's body flies around at a what appears to be nothing but darkness. "I may have been defeated, but i will escape hell, and destroy Goku. So i can prove my superiority!" Super 17 yelled angrily. There was nothing but silence in the darkness. To his dismay. Super 17 is stuck there, with no way out. "I refuse to be stuck in here for ETERNITY!!!" Super 17 yelled angrily around the room. But still, there was only silence. "Argh! Is there even a way to get back to the surface!" Super 17 yelled angrily once again. But then something happened. A light, a mysterious light appears out of nowhere. "What the...?" Super 17 said, before he was engulfed in the mysterious light. In the land of Equestria, there was peace and friendship, well usually. There was nothing but sunshine and beautiful flowers at the day, while at night, there is the marvelous moon glowing around the land. On a mountain top, there was a large city with a castle on top, it was white and beautiful. It was Canterlot, one of Equestria's most well known cities. It's also where the princesses of Equestria lives. Princess Celestia, the mover of the sun. And Princess Luna, the mover of the moon. At a very close point, a train is departing from Canterlot. Inside the train, there is Twilight sparkle, Celestia's favorite(or perhaps only) student. She and her friends Rainbow dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie pie, Rarity, and Spike have just been exploring the Crystal empire. Where Spike has used the Crystal heart to not only bring back the peace in the empire, but also defeated the evil Tyrant, King Sombra. And now that it was a success, they can now return home. "It sure is nice to get home. I think i need to read a few books about Equestria when i get home." Said Twilight, a lavender unicorn and the element of magic. Rainbow dash the blue rainbow maned pegasus then butted beside Twilight. Who is also known as the element of loyalty. "Twilight, do you have to be such an egghead every day." Rainbow dash chuckled. Twilight just rolled her eyes at Rainbow's comment. "I think i want to be a little close to sweetie belle when i get home darlings. She must have missed me during my absence". Said Rarity the white unicorn with a fancy speech. She is the element of generosity "Ah think she will be mighty fine Rarity. Cus her Apple bloom and Scootaloo work mighty fine together. Besides, i reckon Big mac is watching them nicely." Said Applejack the western orange pony the element of honesty. "I hope Mr and Ms cake have taken good care of Gummy. Because Gummy needs to be feeden 3 cakes each meal." Said the young and energetic pink pony Pinkie pie. PS: she is also the element of laughter "I'm sure He is fine Pinkie... I just hope Derpy haven't misfeed my animals." Said the yellow pegasus with a pink mane, Fluttershy the element of kindness. "I just can't believe that it was me who defeated King Sombra. Well... with the help of Cadence of course" Said Spike, Twilight's baby dragon assistant. And Rarity's self proclaimed love interest. The train then stops at Ponyvile. The 7 friends bit each other goodnight, and went their separate ways home. Spike and Twilight went back at their treehouse. They were just about to go to bed at 10.30 PM. But then a certain pink pony appeared out of nowhere, right in front of Twilight. "Hi Twilight!" Pinkie said happily. "Pinkie what are you doing here? Do you know what time it is?" Twilight said annoyed to Pinkie. "To answer you're first question. I was just here to see if you want a goodnight cupcake. And second. No i don't, i don't have a watch." Pinkie said energetic. "Well that's good, but no thanks. Anything else?" Twilight asked. "Just one teeny tiny thing. My pinkie sense told me that something completely random is going to happen tomorrow." Pinkie said. "... O...kay?" Twilight said with a sweat drop. "What do you think it will be? An ursa major? Parasprite invasion? A centaur that eats magic and stuff? Or maybe a humanoid being just like Lyra is describing coming to Equestria with hostility?" Pinkie asked with numerous question marks coming out of nowhere. "Pinkie two things. 1 We can talk about it tomorrow. 2 a humanoid being coming with hostility, seriously? I don't think something like this will happen Pinkie" Twilight said. Not taking the Pinkie sense too seriously. "Oh, well goodnight then Twilight" Pinkie said. Jumping out of a open window. "Oh, Pinkie and her randomness. What's the worst that can happen?" Twilight said now falling asleep. Meanwhile up in the night sky. A mysterious light is slowly beginning to land on Equestria. Inside a humanoid being is in there unconscious. It's Super 17 > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- (A few hours after the mane 6 have left Canterlot during the last chapter): Princess Celestia was enjoying a good cup of tea, along with a nice orange cake. She was enjoying the beautiful night sky, but then she feels something suspicious in the sky. Coming from one of the white stars. "What is this strange feeling i feel right now?" Celestia thought to herself. She couldn't describe it, but it felt strange. Then her younger sister Princess Luna ran straight to Celestia. "Sister, thou you also feel a little strange?" Luna said to her sister. "Yes my dear sister, i feel it too. But i have no idea what it is." Celestia said. Both of them then looked up in the sky. Seeing a white mysterious star slowly getting bigger. "I think the strange energy comes from that star over there. Although i can also say, that i clearly doubt that it's even a star." Celestia said to Luna. They clearly didn't know what that mysterious power is, but there is still one they need to know, is it friend or foe? "We think that we need to see more about it tomorrow my dear sister." Princess Luna said to Celestia. Princess Celestia nods in agreement. "Indeed sister, the power grows by the time it comes closer. We may find out more tomorrow. And we may need the help from the elements of harmony. I'll send a letter to my student Twilight sparkle tomorrow. Goodnight sis." Celestia said, before going to bed. "Thou too." Luna said, before also going to bed. Next day in Equestria. The sun shined over the landmarks, Canterlot, Ponyvile, including Sweet Apple Acres. Meanwhile the Mane 6 were enjoying a good breakfast together. They were at the Golden oak library. They ate pancakes with syrup. While Spike ate some gems, he has gotten from Rarity. "Thanks for the gems Rarity. I love them... through not as much as you." Spike said, although his last sentence was whispered to himself. "You are very welcome Spikey-wikey, i had a few leftover gems i didn't need. Which is why i gave them to my little Spikey-wikey." Rarity said, which makes Spike blush really hard. The others laughed. Applejack then looked at Fluttershy. "Hi Fluttershy, how did Derpy feed your animals while we were gone?" Applejack asked Fluttershy. Fluttershy looked a little skeptical about that question. "Well, she did alright. But she has accidently given the bear bread crust, the birds cheese, and the mice honey. She even gave Angel an unwashed potato. She said, she must have misread my instructions a few days ago." Fluttershy said shyly. Applejack looked a little nervous about that. She sat her head close to Twilight. "Remind me not to hire Derpy, to take care of Winona." Applejack whispered to Twilight. Twilight nodded at the remark. Then Pinkie pie rises up from her chair. "Hey Twilight, now that we all are here, can we talk about the Pinkie sense i had last night?" She said to everyone. Every pony looked at Pinkie pie. Rainbow then flew close to Pinkie's face. "Pinkie sense? What did the Pinkie sense tell you? That i will get lucky and join the wonderbolts today?!" Rainbow asked Pinkie pie with hope and pride in her voice. "Nopie, something random is going to happen today." Rainbow sighed and returned to her seat. Then everyone looked skeptical to each other. Why? Because when the Pinkie says that something random is going to happen today. There is a possibility that the random thing, will be something bad going to happen. But what is it? Then Twilight broke the silence. And said "Pinkie, i'm not distrusting your Pinkie sense, but the suggestions you gave yesterday, sounds a little too ridiculous to be true." The other four looked at Twilight. "What did Pinkie pie suggest about what could happen?" Rainbow dash said. "Well, she did suggest an Ursa major. Maybe a Parasprite invasion? Couldn't remember the third one, but doesn't matter. Or a humanoid being just like Lyra is describing coming to Equestria with hostility." Twilight said, before turning to a little chuckle. The other four looks at each other, and also begins to chuckle. "I have to agree with Twilight, Pinkie. Really? A human who will attack us. That sounds like something from a story." Rarity said while chuckling. "Well, we still can't be sure. Oh and by the way. We are in a story right now." Pinkie said. The last part confused the others. But just let it slide. Because that's just how Pinkie is. Then Spike feels a little tingling in his mouth. His chins begins to grow, and then he burps a letter out of his mouth. "Hey Twilight, i got a letter for you." Spike said to Twilight, getting everpony's attention. Twilight looks at the letter... it was from Princess Celestia(Yeah who else could it be). "A LETTER FROM PRINCESS CELESTIA ALREADY?!!" Twilight yelled. She looks very concerned. "Oh no, oh no. She may be upset, that i haven't sent a letter... I don't know how she will react when..." Twilight's sentence was shorted out when... "TWILIGHT, READ THE LETTER ALREADY." Rainbow shouted at Twilight. Immediately calming her down. "Right, sorry." Twilight said while blushing embarrassingly. She then reads the letter: Dear Twilight sparkle, my favorite student. I hope you have a nice breakfast. But that's not the point. I want you and your friends meet me at Canterlot, as quick as possible. There is an urgent situation going on. Oh by the way, i'm certainly not upset that you haven't sent a letter. Love Princess Celestia. Twilight puts the letter away, and sees all her friends. Then Twilight said what she mostly did, when she got an urgent letter from Princess Celestia. "Girls, we're going to Canterlot, ASAP". The Mane 6 were at a train, driving to Canterlot. Inside the train, Rainbow was a little grumpy. "First we were done at the Canterlot wedding, then we needed to go the Crystal empire, and just the next day right after we were home, we've been called to another urgent situation. How many urgent situations are there?!" Rainbow grumbled to herself, she has clearly not gotten too much free time. "Calm your horses Rainbow, we didn't know that Princess Celestia was going to sent us a letter. Sometimes things just happen." Applejack said to Rainbow dash. "True. But still, Princess Celestia seriously needs a lot of help these days." Rainbow said again. The others glared a little at Rainbow. "Uuhh... anyway, we are at Canterlot in a few minutes Rainbow, so let it slide this once." Twilight said, trying to calm the current situation down. Later they have just gotten inside Celestia's castle, they had a little trouble with the guards, Rainbow nearly threatened them, but Twilight convinced them that they have been sent by Princess Celestia. They were at the hall, where Princess Celestia and Princess Luna sat on their respective thrones. "So what's the situation this time? Discord? Chrysalis? Or maybe King Sombra again?" Rainbow asked, like it's something that they need to do again. The others looked a little worried, since those three were very dangerous opponents. "No Rainbow, it's not either of those three." Everyone sighed in relief. That quickly ended when Princess Celestia broke the silence. "It may be worse than even i imagined." Princess Celestia said with seriousness in her voice. The Mane 6, especially Fluttershy looked very worried about that sentence. Twilight then turned over to the princesses. "Not to interrupt you Princess Celestia, but what is the urgent situation exactly?" Twilight asked her teacher. Princess Celestia and Princess Luna looked at each other. "It was a white star in the sky, yesterday we felt a strange coming from it, it wasn't that high yesterday. But when we felt it today, it's power was already enough to make us call you here." Princess Luna said. Then Pinkie pie jumped to the scene. "Hey, maybe that's what my Pinkie sense told me." Pinkie told the others. Princess Celestia was a little confused about it, but then turned serious again. "It doesn't matter if it's a Pinkie sense or not. The only thing is, that we don't know that if it's friend or foe." Princess Celestia said once again. And then she says "But there is no time to waste, for i can feel that the strange power will land in Equestria, in just a few moments, and we are going to see what it wants here." The others are shocked at that. "But no need to worry my little ponies, for we have just what we need, if it comes with hostility." Princess Celestia, said calmly. She then opened the door to the element case, she then opened it with her horn, and gave each of the six, their respective Element of Harmony. "Oh yeah baby, with those babies with us, that thing won't stand a chance." Rainbow dash said with her usual pride. Now the Mane 6 looked confident. "We won't disappoint you Princess." Twilight said while smiling to her teacher. Celestia then smiled at Twilight. "I know Twilight sparkle, my precious student." Celestia said warmly. But then one of the royal guards arrived. "Princess! A white star is coming from the stars, it will land very soon." The guard said to Celestia. Both Celestia and Luna's faces turned serious. The princesses and the mane 6 looked outside, they saw the white star ascending down to the empty landmarks. "Return to your post, we will take it from here." Princess Luna told the guard. The guard saluted and returned to his post. Then Celestia looks at the others. "Let's go." Was all she said, before teleporting all of them to the landmarks. All of them arrived to the empty landmarks, they saw the white star coming closer and closer. They all looked ready. "I just hope it's friendly.".Is all Fluttershy could say. She was already scared of what would be the mysterious powerful energy. "Don't chicken out already. Remember, we have the Elements of Harmony with us." Rainbow told Fluttershy very confidently. "Yeah, you know what to do if it's a big meanie pants. We will give it a taste of harmony. And certainly not the good taste." Pinkie said, joining the conversation. Then Twilight broke the conversation. "Save it for later girls, it's landing." Twilight said. And just like Twilight said, the white star has landed on the ground. The impact was heavy enough to make a little earthquake, and a small crater. But then it begins to stop glowing. And the white glowing star, is replaced by a very tall and slender man, with black hair, and clothes that appears from something a bad boy would wear. They all looked a little confused about it. "Hey, maybe my guess about a humanoid was true after all." Pinkie said. But just as Pinkie was done talking, the humanoid being opened it's eyes. Shocking the Mane 6, but the princesses stood firm. The being then begins to brush his hair back. It looked around. Then it saw the princesses and the Mane 6. "What... is this place?" Is all he said. > Chapter 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The tall and slender man is now fully visible to the ponies. He was as tall, if not, taller than Princess Celestia. He looked at them with his usual cold glare. "What is this place?" He asked himself slightly confused. The princesses and the Mane 6 broke out of their silence. Celestia and Luna walked closer to him. "You are in Equestria stranger. But that doesn't matter right now. Now answer me some questions! Who are you? What are you? What are your intentions here in Equestria?" Princess Celestia asked the tall stranger. She was a little worried about the tall stranger, they could feel his power, and it easily rivaled an alicorn. The man looked at them for a short time, before finally answering some of her questions. "If you really wanna know my name, then i can tell you, i'm Super 17." The stranger known as Super 17 said. All of them were silent. It was however broken by Rainbow dash, because she has begun to laugh hysterically. "Super 17?! That's such a ridiculous name!" Rainbow dash laughed. Then Pinkie pie joined the laugh. "Yeah Rainbow dash. It actually does sound ridiculous!" Pinkie said, while laughing. Super 17 is not amused. He glared at the two ponies. He then ignored them, and looked back at the princesses. "We now know your name stranger, or Super 17. But i must ask you. What are you? You look like some sort of monkey." Princess Luna asked Super 17. "Who me? I'm an android. Also known as the ultimate android." Super 17 said with pride. Both the princesses and the Mane 6 were confused, including Rainbow and Pinkie, who has just recently stopped laughing. "And just what the hay's an android?" Applejack asked. "That's none of your business. In fact, i seriously don't have time to waste, by talking to a bunch of inferior creatures." Super 17 told all of them. All of them were either shocked and/or offended, by Super 17's remark to them. Rainbow then flew close to Super 17's face. "And just why the hay are you calling us inferior?" Rainbow argued to Super 17. Super 17 grinned at Rainbow dash. "I mean that you're all nothing but a bunch of pathetic creatures. I'm known as the ultimate android, because i'm the strongest being in the universe." Super 17 yelled all over the place. The two princesses gasped at that. The Mane 6 are shocked. Fluttershy is whimpering. Applejack is snorting at him. Pinkie pie shakes in fear. Twilight looks very worried. So does Rarity. But Rainbow dash, she clearly didn't believe a word, what Super 17 just said. "Oh please. You?! The strongest being in the universe? Look at such a thin body you have. I bet Fluttershy could punch you to next week." Rainbow said, Fluttershy was still worried however. "In fact, i think i could punch you away 10 seconds flat!" Rainbow said with pride, but Super 17 just grinned at her. "So you can beat me in 10 seconds? Prove it!" Was all Super 17 said. Rainbow then grinned. "With pleasure!" She said. She then charged at Super 17 incredibly fast. But to the others surprise. Super 17 just bashed Rainbow dash away, just as she was about to hit Super 17. Rainbow dash hit the ground. Fluttershy flew over to Rainbow, to check if she's alright. Applejack was clearly not happy about that. "Alright that's it! I'm gonna buck ya, until i hear you cry!" Applejack charged at Super 17. When she was close to Super 17. She bucked him with all of her might. But to everypony's surprise. Super 17 didn't flinch, heck he didn't even move. But Applejack, she can feel lots of pain in her legs. "Argh, ow, ow, ow, ow!" Applejack whimpered. "What's this feller made of? It's like i just bucked a mountain!" Applejack said, while still whimpering. The princesses now think, that he is a foe. So they flew right in front of him. "THOU SHALL PAY, FOR HURTING OUR LITTLE PONIES!" Princess Luna shouted with her royal canterlot voice. She began charging at Super 17. Princess Celestia meanwhile, talked telepathically to Twilight. "Twilight, when i signal you. You will prepare to attack with the Elements of Harmony. We don't know yet, if the Elements of Harmony are required to defeat him." Princess Celestia said telepathically to Twilight. "You got it Princess." Twilight said, agreeing with Celestia's plan. "But don't get into the fight, and neither your friends. I don't want any of you to get hurt." Princess Celestia said to Twilight. Twilight was a little skeptical about the idea to stay out of the fight for now. But then just let it go. "Okay Princess Celestia." Twilight said to Celestia telepathically. Celestia then joined Princess Luna in the fight. Princess Luna was casting many attack spells at Super 17. But to no avail, since Super 17 is just dodging them with ease. "I could just absorb this fool's energy blasts, but they're too weak to absorb. So i will just play with them a little." Super 17 thought to himself. But then he was caught off guard by Princess Celestia, who just hit him with a powerful magic beam from the back. Super 17 turned around to see Princess Celestia. "I see you want to fight. But why are you fighting a fight you can't win?" Super 17 asked the two princesses. Celestia and Luna glared at him. "Don't underestimate us Whelp!" Princess Luna shouted at Super 17. Princess Luna charged at Super 17, but he just quickly punched her away. "For someone who talks so much and loud, you really are the Whimp yourself." Super 17 insulted the princess of the moon. And that hit the spot. Princess Luna have never been so insulted before. "YOU DARE SAY THAT TO ME. THE PRINCESS OF THE NIGHT. THOU SHALL PAY FOR THIS, SUPER 17!!!" Princess Luna yelled with the royal canterlot voice. She charged right at Super 17, and threw a barage of powerful physical attacks. She bucked him, charged at him with her horn, and then shouted a magical beam at him. Smoke appeared after the blast. "That... should do some real damage to him." Princess Luna said pridely. Princess Celestia then turned over to Luna. "Agreed, not even an Ursa Major could take all these hits, not without taking serious damage." Princess Celestia said to her sister. The Mane 6 cheered from behind. "Yeah, Princess Luna taught that big meany pants who's boss." Pinkie said with cheer. "Oh yeah, this so called ultimate android, just got what he deserved!" Rainbow dash also cheered. "It's too bad, that he needed to go already. I couldn't even compliment, of how horrid his outfit was." Rarity said. "Guess we didn't even need the Elements of Harmony after all." Twilight said. "Uhhmm... I don't know, if he was that bad." Fluttershy said. The other Mane 5 were surprised at Fluttershy's remark. "Why the hay would you say that Fluttershy?" Applejack said to Fluttershy confused. "This feller was clearly dangerous." Applejack said again. "Besides, he deserved that, by getting some serious damage, by Princess..." Applejack said. Before her sentence were cut short, by a familiar voice. "Is that it? You disappoint me!" The voice said. Everyone jumped back. The smoke was now fully cleared. Super 17... was completely unharmed. They all got shocked by that. A being, who can take a full barage by an angry alicorn, one of the most powerful beings in Equestria, without taking a single scratch. "How... How is that possible, all those attacks, should have given you serious damage." Princess Luna said shocked. Super 17 just chuckled at Luna. "Am i supposed to be damaged by that? I didn't even feel it." Super 17 said. All of them were really afraid of his power now. Not even an Alicorn, could land a single scratch on that being. "Well since you have entertained me a little, i have i little surprise just for you." Super 17 said. All of them slowly took a few steps back in fear. Well except Pinkie pie. "Ohh, a surprise? What is it? What is it?!" Pinkie said energetic. Ignoring her fear of him temporarily. "You will see very soon." Super 17 said. He then raised his arms in the air. "Oh, now i know. I think he is surrendering. Huh, guess we really did do some real damage to him." Rainbow dash said. Clearly not knowing what's about to happen. "Uhm... Rainbow dash. I'm not sure he's surrendering." Applejack said to Rainbow. Showing that he now turns his hands forward, pointing right at them, his fingers stretches out. And then he yells something they've never heard in Equestria. "FLASH BOMBER!" Super 17 yelled. Hundreds of small yellow beams shoots out of Super 17's fingertips. All them gets shocked at such an attack. The Mane 6 all did their best to dodge the beams. But then Princess Celestia and Princess Luna made a force field around them. I managed to protect... But not for long, the force field is beginning to crack. "How can such a being like him do magic?! I can't even sense any in him!" Twilight yelled. But just shrugged it off, since that was nowhere close to being important right now. Celestia then turns over to the Mane 6. "I'm afraid to say this. But Super 17's power is much greater than anything even i have ever seen." Princess Celestia said. That only worried them more. Then Celestia made a strategy. "Twilight, prepare the Elements of Harmony. Me and Luna will distract him." Celestia said. The Mane 6 were afraid. But they trusted her plan, and go along with it. It was also then... The force field broke completely. Super 17 stopped shooting. And then walked closer to the two princesses. "You know, i'm actually impressed. For an inferior creature, i comment you for making a force field strong enough to take a few of my Flash Bomber attack." Super 17 commended the two princesses. Celestia signaled the Mane 6 from behind to prepare the elements. "I see, i must say, you are indeed the strongest opponent we have ever met." Celestia said to Super 17. "Thanks for the compliment." Super 17 said with a grin. It however turned serious. "But this ends here, i will destroy you two, then the blue horse, then the orange one, and then destroy the other 4 in an instant." super 17 said, before noticing, that the 6 others, were out of sight. "Wait... Where is the other 6?" Super 17 asked. "Oh you will see, once i say... NOW!" Celestia shouted. Super 17 then turns around, he sees the 6 others were charging a powerful attack, from the necklaces, and the tiara on them. It glowed with rainbows. "So that's what those funny accessories were. A secret weapon." Super 17 thought to himself. He then grinned. "I'm impressed that they actually posses something that powerful, which i'm going to absorb, once they fire it." Super 17 planned in his thoughts. "Prepare to feel the power of the Elements of Harmony." Twilight shouted at him. The charge was complete. They fired a blast of powerful energy, which looks like a rainbow from a cartoon. It gets closer, and closer, to Super 17. "Oh yeah. Time for you to be turned into a statue... Or something." Rainbow shouted at Super 17. But he was prepared. Just as it's about to hit Super 17. Super 17 began to float a little, and then he spread his arms and legs. Then instead of the rainbow blast surrounding Super 17. It just disappears right in front of him. "What?! Why are the Elements of Harmony not affecting him?!" Celestia shouted. All of them were shocked. How can he take the rainbow blast, doing nothing but disappear. "HA HA HA HA! That's right! Give me more power." Super 17 shouted gloatingly. They now realize why it's doing nothing. Super 17 is absorbing the blast from the Elements of Harmony. When the blast ended. The Mane 6 were shocked, beyond belief. The Elements of Harmony... Were absorbed by the new being, which only made him stronger. "Thanks for the energy. I haven't absorbed anything for quite sometime. But it didn't really matter, for i used... nowhere close to my full power." Super 17 said. Celestia and Luna gasped. He haven't even used his full power, and they were still no match for him. Now the Mane 6 were losing hope of survival. Super 17 was much stronger than all of them. The Elements of Harmony couldn't defeat him, due to his energy absorption. And they were all beginning to get tired. "Well, now i think i've wasted enough time, playing with you. So i think it's time to finish you." Super 17 said. Now beginning to prepare a fist attack. The Mane 6 especially Fluttershy walked back slowly. And then Super 17 charged right to them, beginning to give them a powerful punch. The Mane 6 closed their eyes, being ready not to look, when they get hit. Celestia and Luna saw Super 17 attacking them, helpless. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Celestia and Luna shouted. They now thought, that it was all over, for the Mane 6. But then... he stopped. The Mane 6 slowly opened their eyes. Seeing Super 17... Just standing still?! "What, why am i just standing there?! Why do i begin to have a feeling, that what i'm doing is wrong?!" Super 17 thought to himself confused. The princesses was confused. Why did he just stop attacking them? And why did he begin, to get a few feelings. He then stood up again, shrugging off his thoughts. "You know what! You are lucky that i'll let you live. But next time we meet. Maybe i won't be so nice to you inferior creatures." Super 17 said to them, he then to everyone's surprise, begins to rise up in the air. And then flew away so fast that it almost made the Sonic Rainboom look like a carriage. "What just happened?" Rainbow said confused. > Chapter 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Super 17 was flying in the air, with incredible speed. He thought about back, back when he battled the colorful ponies, back in the empty landmarks. He has easily beaten them down, without even using 1% of his full power, and not fighting seriously. They tried to defeat him with some special accessories, but he absorbed the blast. Although it only made him slightly stronger, it was nice to absorb some energy anyway. But he also felt a little weird on the inside after he absorbed the blast, like he could feel, that the things he has done today, the things he had done to the Z fighters back on earth, the thing about killing Android 18's short and bald husband, was wrong. He remembered the Android 17 from the past, before he got mind controlled, by the two mad scientists, Dr. Gero, and Dr. Myuu, who was also his creators, his past self was never like this. He may have been stubborn, prideful, and playful, but he at least cared about Android 18. He even had a family, but he can't remember what happened to them. But now, his thoughts were focusing on something else. "Why am i still alive?" He thought to himself, back when Goku defeated him with his Kamehameha wave, he was completely vaporized, he should have been sent to hell, or if he was lucky, in heaven. But somehow, before that could happen, he had been sent to a mysterious land, filled with peaceful life, and ponies. "How childish. That may have been for someone who was like 6 years old." He thought to himself again. He then stopped in midair, trying to think a little more about, something strange about himself. "When i attacked them, why didn't i finish them off? Why are their such emotions in me?" Super 17 thought to himself, when he was created from the original Android 17, and hell Android 17, he was supposed to be programmed, to a pure killing machine like hell 17, following orders from Dr. Myuu, like he was his puppet. But even through he has felt some emotions from his inside, he knew that it really doesn't matter now. Or do they? He could have destroyed the planet in an instant if he wanted, but chose not to, since he has somehow felt, that it was all pointless. "Maybe i should give this planet a chance." He thought to himself. "Who knows? Maybe there are some funny challenges, around this world, to prove my superiority on." He grinned. "Even if i destroy this place, i don't know if there are any near planets around." He thought to himself, deciding to stay on the planet for now. Then he took flight again. Meanwhile, the princesses, and the Mane 6, have returned to Canterlot, very tired from their latest battle. All of them have been thinking a lot of what has happened today, in Equestria. They have just fought an extremely powerful being, who has not only easily defeated the two princesses, but also absorbed a blast from the Elements of Harmony. They were now at the hall, talking about what to do next. "What should we do Princess Celestia?!" Twilight asked, while almost yelling at her teacher. "Equestria is currently being roamed, by what may be currently one of the most powerful beings in Equestria!" Twilight yelled. She nearly lost her breath. Applejack walked over to Twilight, to calm her down. "Twilight, sugarcube, take deep breaths." Applejack said to Twilight. Twilight slowly took some deep breaths, and calmed down a little. "Thanks Applejack. I needed that." Twilight said. She then looked over to Princess Celestia. "Princess Celestia? What should we do?" Twilight asked her. Princess Celestia looked over at Luna, who was getting a few bandages. She then turned back to Twilight. "For the first time Twilight, i'm actually not sure." Celestia said, while shaking her head. The others sighed. "It's unwise to send guards out to search for Super 17. He's much too powerful." Celestia said, before Rainbow dash butted in the conversation. "Seriously princess! We need to find this guy now! We still gotta lot of questions to ask this guy. Wow i sounded a lot like Twilight for a moment." Rainbow dash said. Princess Celestia however shook her head to Rainbow dash. "Rainbow dash, we don't know what he's fully capable of. We should only search for him, when the time's right." Celestia said. The Mane 6 looked at each other. All of them then looked at their rulers. Princess Luna, with a few bandages on her arrived. "Thou would be wise, to return to Ponyvile, my little ponies." Princess Luna said, with seriousness, in her voice. "We will call you, when we find a way to find this Super 17." Princess Luna said. Then Applejack walked over to Princess Luna. "And what if we find that varmint first?" Applejack asked. The other Mane 5 nodded, as Applejack had a point, what if they met Super 17 first. "Then you will contact us. And we will see what we can do." Celestia said. "Maybe we can talk it over with him." Celestia now said. That made some of them a little uneasy. And Rainbow dash, was not the one who knew the words "Peaceful talk" right now. "Talk, peacefully with that guy?!" Rainbow dash yelled. "Haven't you forgotten that he easily kicked your flanks, in barely 5 minutes?!". Fluttershy however was quiet, like she has saw something inside the super android. "I don't know about you. But i think this Super 17, actually have some good hidden in his heart." Fluttershy said. When the Mane 5 heard Fluttershy said that, they had faces, that was a combination of surprised, confused, and a little disgust over the android. "GOOD HIDDEN IN THAT GUY?!" Rainbow yelled at Fluttershy. "Haven't we forgotten who it was, that attacked us today." Rainbow said to her. "That's true, but..." Fluttershy said, before Applejack butted in. "Sugarcube, how many rocks have ya eaten today?!" Applejack said, she was as confused as Rainbow dash right now. "That tough critter, knocked us out, like a cow, hitting the mice." Applejack said. "I know Applejack, but..." Fluttershy said, before Rarity butted in. "How can this ruffian have good inside of him?! Have you seen his outfit? That horrid outfit is so 1997!" Rarity said, she clearly doesn't like Super 17's attire. "But..." Fluttershy said, before Pinkie pie butted in this time. "This big meanie pants, shooted his magic beams at us." Pinkie pie said, "I know, but..." Fluttershy said, before Twilight sparkle butted in. "Fluttershy, he is clearly an enemy trying to conquer Equestria. We must find a way to subdue him!" Twilight said. Then Fluttershy's patients from her friends outburst about Super 17 wore off. "WOULD YOU LET ME FINISH!" Fluttershy shouted, the others stopped, very surprised that Fluttershy shouted so loud, that it rivaled Princess Luna's royal Canterlot voice. "I know he hurt us, but who was it that insulted his name?" Fluttershy said, glancing over at Rainbow dash and Pinkie pie, who was whistling innocently. "Who was it, that charged at him?" Fluttershy said, glancing over at Rainbow dash again. "And who was it, that bucked him, just because he defended himself from Rainbow dash?" Fluttershy said, glancing over at Applejack, who also whistled innocently now. "But more importantly, why didn't he finish us off? He could have done it. But why?" Fluttershy now said, the other Mane 5 now began to see Fluttershy's point. They were the ones who started the conflict, not Super 17. "You're right Fluttershy, we may have been a little too quick to judge him." Applejack said, the others nodded in agreement. "But if he's truly a bad guy, i'm going to give him a Sonic Rainboom!" Rainbow dash said, while the others, except the princesses rolled their eyes. "That was very wise said Fluttershy." Celestia said to the shy pegasus. "I'm very impressed, that behind your shyness, there is full of wisdom in you." Celestia commented Fluttershy, who blushed. Her face then turned serious again. "But we still need to find him, and find out more about him." Celestia said. They all nodded in agreement, but then a magic green fire arrived beside Princess Celestia. It turned into a letter. "A letter?" Celestia said. She opened the letter, and when she finished it, she was a little shocked. "What is it Princess Celestia?" Twilight asked. Celestia handed over the letter, and Twilight read it out. Twilight! Please come back to Ponyvile immediately!!! Why? I don't know. Come and see yourself!!! Spike All of the Mane 6 and princesses were shocked. Especially the word, Changelings. "I'll send all of us to Ponyvile immediately!" Celestia said, she engulfed all of them, including herself and Luna, in a glowing light, disappearing from the hall. The Mane 6 and the Princesses returned to Ponyvile, and to their shock, Ponyvile was different. Almost all the ponies were acting very strange, their eyes were blue, dizzy. They almost acted like they were zombies. They then looked at the Mane 6, and the princesses, they then began to follow them. "Quick, to the library!" Twilight yelled out. All of them ran to the library as fast as they could. When they were inside the library, they closed all the doors and windows. Spike then appeared from his hiding spot, under a couple of books, fallen down the bookshelves. "Twilight! Boy am i glad to see you." Spike said, happy to see the Mane 6. "Where were you? We really needed your help, to find out about why the ponies are acting weird today." Spike said. Then he saw the princesses were here too. "Oh hey Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna. Are you here to help us too?" Spike asked Celestia. "Yes Spike, me and Luna we're here to help." Celestia said. Twilight then realizes something familiar, to the ponies acting bizarre. "Wait... this... this is too familiar. Everyone acting strange? Acting like they've verb replaced?!" Twilight said, realizing now who is behind it all. The others gasped, they saw Twilight's point. Except Rainbow dash. "You lost me." Rainbow dash said, not exactly getting Twilight's point. "Of course! The royal wedding! Princess Cadence was replaced by a changeling!" Rarity said, seeing the point. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's kick buck some bugs!" Rainbow said. The others face-hoofed. Because the full assault plan was way too reckless. Then Princess Luna came up with a strategy. "But before we can take back Ponyvile, we need to find out, where the Changelings are hiding the originals." Princess Luna said. Celestia nods in agreement. "Luna is right. We can't just go on a full assault, Rainbow. They might hurt the hostages." Celestia said. Rainbow sighed in disappointment. Then Pinkie came up with an idea. "Okay Girls Princesses... and dragon... We are going to blend in. We are going to sneak behind enemy lines!" Pinkie said with seriousness. "First, i want you to clear your mind." Pinkie said, while her eyes are beginning to become like a zombie. "Then i want you to walk like a zombie!" Pinkie said, while trying to act like a zombie. "Then... I want you to... to... Um... Smile? No... Wait. Don't smile." Pinkie said, trying to act even more like a zombie. The Mane 5, and even the Princesses face-hoofed. Later, they actually did follow Pinkie's advice, much to their dismay. The zombie pony disguised Changelings fell for it. They even saw Derpy becoming a victim. The Changeling beside the Changeling disguised as Derpy, looking a little closely to the Changeling. It then hit it's comrade on it's head, the Changeling's eyes became derpy, as a result. They looked over to the 8 ponies and dragon, walking somewhat around like the others. Fortunately, they fell for it, much to their relief. "Okay, Pinkie's plan worked. Now where are the hostages?" Celestia asked her sister and the Mane 6. Spike saw something. "Uh... Do you think where they would be is big and pulsing and has an eerie green glow?" Spike asked. They all turned around, they saw a green light, coming from the town hall. "Well... Uh... I guess that's where they are." Twilight said. Then all of them bursted inside the town hall. Where they saw many cocoons around the area. Many Changelings came out of the cocoons. Seriously. Many Changelings! They all turned into Pinkie pie. "Watch out! They're taking our form to confuse us!" Twilight said, to warn them. "Well this is..." Rarity said. "Nightmarish." Applejack said, finishing Rarity's sentence. "Oh! This would be the best party ever if we weren't all about to be turned into pod ponies!" Pinkie said, much to Twilight's annoyance. Twilight then shooted a magic beam out of her horn. Rarity, Celestia, and Luna did the same. Rainbow dash karate kicked some Pinkie pie clones. Applejack used her hat as a weapon. Fluttershy tried to stay out of the fight. And Spike was being chased by a Changeling. When Fluttershy saw Rainbow dash got punched by a Changeling, Fluttershy used her most powerful weapon, The Stare, that immediately made the Changeling run away in fear. Rarity then changed Pinkie pie's hair, to look like her's, so they could tell apart. And then, Pinkie took out her party cannon. She shot out lots of pink sticky cake cream. Glueing the remaining Changelings to the ground. Later, all the hostages were free. But the Mane 6 saw somepony missing. The Cutie Mark Crusaders, Apple bloom, Sweetie belle, and Scootaloo. Pinkie eventually inflated her hair back to normal. Spike then threw out a green orb. "Huh... I don't remember eating that." Spike said confused. "What... What is it? An egg?" Fluttershy said. "I don't think it's a gem." Rarity said. They then heard a very familiar laugh from the green orb. And saw a familiar face they hated. "Mwa ha ha ha! My, my... You didn't have any trouble seeing through my minions at all did you Twilight? Clever girl." The voice said, revealing to be Queen Chrysalis. Her face was in the orb. "I'm sure you're all cleve enough to see who's missing from your little village." Chrysalis said. The Mane 6, Spike, and the princesses clearly knew, who she referred to. "Where's my sister you..." Applejack said. "...Ill-groomed..." Rarity continued. "...Swiss cheese..." Applejack said. "...Mule!" Rarity continued again. "Hey!" A Mule said in the background. "Temper, temper ladies! Tsk tsk." Chrysalis taunted the two mares. "I believe this is what you're looking for?" Chrysalis said, pointing the view, to the held captive Cmc. "How do we know that that's them? The real them?" Rarity said, not convinced. "Maybe this will help us get our cutie marks?" Apple bloom said. "In what? Being fillynapped? Scootaloo said. Sweetie belle just sighed, at her two friends. "That's them." Applejack said, now fully convinced it's the real Cmc. "Where are you holding them hostage Chrysalis?" Celestia asked the Queen Changeling. "I have them here... In my kingdom. You may want to come collect them quickly... Because i don't know how long i can put up with this." Chrysalis said annoyed, because she is listening to the Cmc's endless talking about cutie marks. "How about three days? Otherwise something bad might happen to your little friends... something like..." Chrysalis said... Before her sentence was cut by Scootaloo. "Hey! She's about to start monologuing! I bet she reveals her entire twisted plan!" Scootaloo said, much to Chrysalis annoyance again. "Ugh. Goodbye." Chrysalis said, before the green orb disappeared. Celestia looked at the Mane 6. "We need to come up with a plan. One of us should go back to Canterlot, and protect it. And one of us need to protect Ponyvile from anymore unwanted guests. And we need somepony to save those three fillies." Celestia said. They nodded in agreement. Then the plan was made. Celestia will go back to Canterlot, from any Changelings. Princess Luna will stay in Ponyvile for protection. And the Mane 6 will travel to Chrysalis's kingdom, to save the Cmc. "Wow, we really have a tough today huh?" Pinkie said to the others. "I know Pinkie, but sometimes things just happens." Applejack said to her pink friend. The 6 ponies were now beginning their journey, to Chrysalis's kingdom. Meanwhile, Super 17 was still flying around. He flew around to investigate the new planet he was in. He saw many things, like a rainbow waterfall, a large gorge, a town in the wild west, a large city, and many volcanoes with lizard like beings living there. He haven't found very much interest in the things he has seen so far. "You know, this beginning to get boring." Super 17 thought to himself. "I could really use a tough opponent now." Super 17 thought to himself again, there are however no real tough opponents he has seen or felt yet, but he liked to toy with them. But then, he felt a powerful energy, a power who was very close, to one of the princesses he met. He felt it come from a direction a little while from where he was floating. "Let's see if there is something interesting over there." Super 17 thought to himself. Before he flew to the direction, where he felt a powerful energy. In Chrysalis's kingdom, the three fillies Apple bloom, Sweetie belle, and Scootaloo, were held hostage, in a cocoon. And they still talked a lot about cutie marks, much to Chrysalis's annoyance. "Maybe it's an opportunity to get cutie marks by being hostages." Apple bloom told her friends. "I don't think such a cutie mark exist Apple bloom." Sweetie belle said. "Oh really? Then what about the time a mare once found out her cutie mark was..." Scootaloo said, before Chrysalis cut her sentence, clearly had enough of the three fillies endless talk about cutie marks. "SHUT UP ALREADY!!!" Chrysalis shouted at the three fillies. "Cutie mark this, cutie mark that. Can't you three fillies talk about anything but that?!" Chrysalis yelled at them. "Well, we can talk about the time, when we made news at the Foal Free Press, or the time we met a Cockatrice, or what about the time, when we heard our sisters talk about how they got their cutie marks, or we can talk about..." Sweetie belle said, while continuing her new endless talk, Chrysalis in respond sighed in annoyance. "Ugh, these fillies are driving me crazy! I hope those 6 mares are coming soon to surrender." Chrysalis said. Deeper in the kingdom, Changelings were patrolling the kingdom. They flew around the place, to make sure that nopony breaked in or out. But little do they know, that something will happen very soon. "KAPROOOOWWWW!" It said. That sound alerted the Changelings. They flew over to the source of the sound, and they saw a very tall man, who has just blasted a hole in the wall. It was none other than Super 17. "Hhmm, so this is where the source of power i felt were coming from." He said, he looked around, he saw some big creatures, who looked like a cross between a pony, and an insect. Super 17 thought that they reminded him of Cell once. One of the pony insect creature known as a Changeling walked over to him. "Who are you? Answer us right now!" It said. More Changelings appeared, there were more than a dozen of them right now. "Who me? I'm Super 17. And my only business here is the source of a powerful energy i have just felt." Super 17 answered the Changeling's question. The Changelings looked at each other. They eventually thought that he wanted the Queen, and that's over their dead bodies. "Are you referring to the Queen? Then you can get lost! Or else we will use our might to take you down." The Changeling threatened. The other Changelings took their fighting poses. "So you wanna fight huh?" Super 17 said. His answer was answered once the Changelings charged at him. Super 17 however smirked at them. Meanwhile, the Queen was thinking of a plan to delay the Mane 6. She then had the idea to break them up, by making them think that they talked badly to each other. But before she could make the choice, an explosion came from the room. "KAPROOOOWWWW!" It said. Queen Chrysalis turned around, and was surprised when she saw a tall man walk through the hole, he holded a Changeling in his hand. Chrysalis gritted her teeth, and activated her horn. While the Cmc were fascinated about the newcomer. "Who is this?" Scootaloo asked her friends. "How should i know?" Apple bloom said. "Let's hear them out." Sweetie belle suggested, the two others nodded in agreement, and saw the conversation between the Changeling queen, and the newcomer. "How dare you attack the mighty Changelings, stranger!" Chrysalis shouted at the newcomer. "And why exactly are you attacking us, we've done nothing wrong to you... yet." Chrysalis also said. "I was just seeing, where the energy came from." The newcomer said. "I defeated these mere weaklings, so the source of the energy may come from you, correct?" The newcomer said to Chrysalis. Chrysalis smirked to the newcomer. "That's right. I am the mighty Queen Chrysalis, ruler of the Changelings, and the slayer of anypony getting in my way!" Chrysalis shouted, while introducing herself. The newcomer however barely looked impressed. "Oh, so that's your name? Queen Chrysalis? How pathetic." He simply said. The Changeling Queen quickly became angered by his remark. "You dare say that to me? Queen Chrysalis. Haven't you heard of me?" Chrysalis shouted at him. "No, and i don't care either. But anyway, i'm Super 17, the ultimate android." Super 17 said. Chrysalis was confused, because she don't know what an android is. But it doesn't matter right now, for the newcomer was more important. "Ok, but now i'm asking. Why are you attacking us?" Chrysalis asked Super 17. "As i said, i was just here to see where the powerful energy came from." Super 17 said. Chrysalis looked at herself with pride. She thought that the newcomer was here to join her army against the ponies. "Aahh, i see. You wanted to join my army. Why didn't you just ask? You can become bodyguard, or maybe my general." Chrysalis said, but Super 17 was not interested at all. "Join you? I never join forces with weaklings like you." Super 17 simply said, that ended Chrysalis's smile at once. She gritted her teeth. This newcomer must pay, for insulting the queen. "How dare you! I will make you eat those words." Chrysalis shouted, and shouted a powerful beam at Super 17. He however threw the Changeling he holed aside, and jumped over the beam. The Cmc looked very impressed at Super 17's reflexes. "He is good." Sweetie belle said. "Yeah, he is alright, but still not as good, or cool, as Rainbow dash." Scootaloo said. "Go stranger!" Apple bloom cheered on Super 17, he in respond heard the voice, and looked at the three fillies held captive. "Why are you holding these three captive? Are they your dinner or something?" Super 17 asked. "Oh no, they are my prisoners, and bait for my victory of conquering Equestria!" Chrysalis shouted at him. Super 17 glared at her. "Holding a few fillies hostage, to conquer an entire land?" Super 17 said to Chrysalis. "What a cowardly and pathetic strategy, i must say." Super 17 insulted her, she easily fell for his insult. "THAT'S IT! YOU ARE GOING DOWN!" Chrysalis shouted at him, she charged at him right away, but as soon as she was close to him, he merely kicked her away. Chrysalis felt a lot of pain. "Argh. You are stronger than i thought, i will give you that." Chrysalis commented him. "But you're not as strong as me. Taste my power!" Chrysalis shouted, now shooting lots of green fire balls at Super 17, he however just knocked the fire balls away, with one hand. "How pathetic. I thought you were even stronger than the two princesses i thought." Super 17 said. Chrysalis was quiet for a moment, as she just heard, that he has fought the two princesses, Celestia and Luna. "You... You have thought Princess Celestia?" Chrysalis shouted at him. Super 17 smirked in respond. "Correct, i fought and beat her." He simply said. The Changeling queen's face turned more serious and angry. "You... You are bluffing! Nopony except me is strong enough to beat her!" Chrysalis shouted, she charged at him again. Then Super 17 took his hand off, to her surprise, and pointed his handless arm in front of her. It then shooted out some energy bullets at her. Chrysalis tried to dodge it, but failed. She was hit by many of them. She was eventually damaged a lot. Super 17 walked closer, but behind Super 17, were a Changeling, ready to strike him in the back. Chrysalis signaled the Changeling to wait for her signal. "You... Are much stronger than i thought." She said. Super 17 smirked. "Thanks for the compliment." He said. "I however have to say, you are much weaker than i thought." Super 17 taunted her. The Cmc cheered while still in their cocoon. Then Sweetie belle noticed the Changeling, ready to stab him from the back. "Watch out stranger!" Sweetie belle called out. But Super 17 barely listened to her. "NOW!" Chrysalis shouted, the Changeling from the back, was about to attack Super 17 from the back. But just as it was about to hit. He kneed the Changeling right in the gut, knocking it out cold. Chrysalis was very shocked. "By the way, i knew that bug was already behind me." Super 17 said, indicating that he knew the Changeling was ready to attack him from behind. "How... How did you know that? Do you have eyes in the back?" Chrysalis asked, getting even more and more worried. Super 17 grinned at her. "I didn't even bother to look. I felt his energy attack me from behind." Super 17 merely said. Chrysalis then flew out of the room, out of fear. Super 17 was about to follow, until he heard a voice from behind. "Hey stranger! Stranger!" The voice said, he turned around, and saw the three same fillies from before, still trapped in the cocoon. "Can you let us out. Please." Sweetie belle yelled out to him. While doing her puppy eyes, the same did the two others. Super 17 would normally have ignored it, and blew them away with his Flash Bomber, but then he felt the feelings from before again, like it's saying that he needs to free those three. He thought for a moment, and then walked over to their cocoon. "Was that a yes?" Apple bloom asked him. Then Super 17 bought out his hand, preparing a fist. The Cmc got a little worried, and closed their eyes in fear, ready to get hit by his fist. But right when he was about to hit them, it reveals that he was actually taking the cocoon shell, and pulled it all out, thus freeing the Cmc. "Hurray! We are free!" Scootaloo cheered. The three fillies cheered together. "We are free! We are free! We are free!" They shouted. Even Super 17 have to admit, that they yelled really loud. When they were finally done cheering, Sweetie belle walked over to Super 17. "Thanks for helping us mister. The Cutie Mark Crusaders at your service!" She yelled out to him, while the three fillies are doing their Cmc poses. Super 17 looked at them, in both confusion, and annoyance. "Cutie mark crusaders? What kind of name is that?" He thought to himself. Then he heard a swarm of wings flying over to him. It was Queen Chrysalis, who has just gotten her backup. A few hundred more Changelings. "YOU HAVE BEATEN THE MIGHTY CHRYSALIS! NOW SEE IF YOU CAN BEAT THE WHOLE NEST!!!" She shouted at him. The three fillies were shocked, and took cover behind Super 17. "Uuhh... May i suggest we run away now." Said a worried Apple bloom. "Oh i wish Rainbow dash was here, she would totally kick your flanks." Scootaloo yelled out to the Changelings. "Comeon mister, let's get out of here!" Sweetie belle yelled out to Super 17, who was just standing there still. "Sorry. But i have a little fight to finish." He told Sweetie belle. The three fillies got even more shocked, at his bravery. "Are you crazy?!" Scootaloo yelled out to him. "There is hundreds of them, and only four of us! We can't beat them." Scootaloo still yelling out to him. Super 17 however smiled. "You should know that numbers aren't everything in a fight." Super 17 simply said, not worried at all. Chrysalis smirked, she thought that she could totally beat him now. "THEN FACE OUR WRATH! CHANGELINGS ATTACK!!!" She yelled out. The Cmc was about to run away. But then Super 17 raised his hands up. "You should know, that it's too late to surrender!" Chrysalis shouted over to him. But then he lowered his hands, and pointed at them. "What's he doing?" Apple bloom asked her friends. "I think we're about to find out." Sweetie belle said. Then Super 17 yelled out something very familiar. "FLASH BOMBER!" He yelled out, while his fingers were about to fire something. Meanwhile, the Mane 6 has finally arrived to Chrysalis's kingdom. They had to go through many things on their way. Like walking through a mirror like labyrinth, a swamp, and even met some ogre like creatures. "Phew, finally. We made it." Pinkie said, while gasping. "Now we can go in and save our sisters." Applejack said. "Yeah, let's go through the gate, kick some Changeling flanks, and save our sisters!" Rainbow dash said. While making some punching and kicking imaginations when fighting some Changelings. "Although i'm not much into fighting myself, but if it's involving my sweet little Sweetie belle, BRING IT ON!" Rarity yelled out. Going into a fighting stance. "Let's not get too over ourselves. It could be dangerous." fluttershy said. "I agree with Fluttershy. We can't just storm in. There can be guards everywhere." Twilight said. Rainbow sighed at that. "Oh come on Twilight, we've just arrived to this bug's kingdom. And now we have to make a plan? I'm seriously getting impatient here guys." Rainbow said, impatiently. They've had a long journey, and Rainbow dash has really gotten impatient, she has really waited for the part where they kick some Changeling flank. "Yes Rainbow dash, that's the best way to get in, without something bad happening." Twilight simply said. Rainbow sighed. "Fine whatever." Rainbow said. All of them then formed a circle, while planning a plan. "Okay here is what we do. First Rainbow, you will see if there are any exits around here, then Applejack will..." Twilight planned, before it was cut off, by an explosion coming right from the gate. "KAPROOOOWWWW!" It said(Again). The gate has been blown to pieces. And many Changelings flew out unconscious, the Mane 6 deformed their circle. "Okay, what the hay just happened here?" Applejack said. They then saw Queen Chrysalis flew out of the gate. "Queen Chrysalis!" Rainbow yelled out to her. She was slowly regaining her consciousness. "Alright spit out." Rainbow said, while holding Chrysalis's face. "Where have you hidden Apple bloom, Sweetie belle, and especially Scootaloo?" Rainbow yelled out to her. Then Chrysalis finally regains her consciousness, and stood up, the Mane 6 took fighting stances. But to their surprise, she didn't look angry, or vengeful when she saw them, she was actually kinda glad that she saw them. Then she ran behind Fluttershy. "Oh it's good you came! Help me! Hide me! Hide me away from that monster!" Chrysalis yelled out in fear. The Mane 6 looked confused. "What monster?" Twilight asked her. "Who was it, that blew you out of the kingdom?" Twilight asked. Her answer was soon to be answered when they heard a voice, they have heard before. "That would be me." The voice said, while they saw something walking out of the gate. The Mane 6 then saw the Cmc walking out of the gate, much to Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow dash's relief. That relief ended when they saw, the one has just fought Queen Chrysalis. He walked out of the shadow, and stood beside the freed Cmc. "Super 17?!" They yelled out. > Bonus: Funny list edited > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is a list of things Mlp should never do to Beerus.

They were walking out the gate Super 17 broke, but not before sending all the Changelings and Queen Chrysalis out through it. Queen Chrysalis was hiding behind Fluttershy, shaking in fear. She was no match against him, and got beaten, along with her Changelings. The Mane 6 have just arrived, and were about to lay a plan, to infiltrate Chrysalis's kingdom, but then they met Super 17 once again, with the Cmc right beside him. The Mane 6 were a little shocked, that they have met up with Super 17 once again. And at a wrong place, and at the wrong time, for them. They heard the Cmc talking with him. "That was so awesome, Super 17. You were all, BAM take this, and those Changelings were like, AARRGGHH have mercy. You would make a good member for the Cutie Mark Crusaders." Sweetie belle said while praising Super 17. Super 17 looked prideful at the praise he got from the three fillies. "Well, i do a lot, to get praise." Super 17 said. "Can you teach us those moves you did?" Apple bloom asked the android. Super 17 looked slightly confused at her. "Does those horses even know Ki?" Super 17 thought to himself, he doubted those horse creatures could do Ki techniques like he could. "I do admit, that what you did was awesome, but still not as awesome as..." Scootaloo said, before seeing the Mane 6, including Rainbow dash. "Rainbow dash!" Scootaloo said, finishing her last sentence. "Uuhh... Yeah, we know Scootaloo. You will say Rainbow dash can do it better." Apple bloom said, while looking at her friend. "No, not that. Rainbow dash, and the others are here!" Scootaloo yelled out happily to her friends. The three fillies ran over to their respective sister, hugging them really hard. "Oh Sweetie belle, i'm glad that you're alright." Rarity said to her little sister, while hugging her. "I sure am Rarity." Sweetie belle said. "Apple bloom, you gave me a mighty scare back there." Applejack said to Apple bloom while hugging her tightly. "I'm sorry that i worried you so much, Applejack." Apple bloom said. "It's good, that you're alright squirt." Rainbow dash said to Scootaloo, while in midair. "I knew you would come to save us... Even through we've just gotten free." Scootaloo said, while looking over at Super 17. The Mane 6's faces turned serious when they saw once again Super 17. Super 17 looked over to the 6 ponies, and Queen Chrysalis, still hiding behind Fluttershy. He instantly recognized them, as the same ponies, who blasted the rainbow colored blast at him, which he absorbed. It also gave him the thought that the new emotions he has begun to feel, was connected to the rainbow. "So. We meet again." Super 17 said, while slowly walking over to the Mane 6. The Mane 6 in respond took their respective fighting poses,except Fluttershy, she was still a little afraid of him, fortunately they remembered Fluttershy's advice, not to judge him too quickly. The Cmc was slightly confused by their conversation. "Okay buster, now that our sisters are freed from this scum." Rainbow said, while glaring at Chrysalis. "Explain to us, what are you doing here?" Rainbow asked him. "Just here to search for a powerful energy i felt in this castle." Super 17 responded, while glancing over at Chrysalis, she shook in fear, just as he looked at her. Boy Chrysalis looks really afraid of Super 17. "Alright, alright, i surrender!" Chrysalis shouted to him, in fear. "Just leave me alone!" Chrysalis said in fear. Super 17, didn't respond to Chrysalis's pity, and walked closer and closer to her. But the Mane 6 blocked his path. "Super 17! Explain to us what you have done to Chrysalis." Twilight said to him. "I was just testing her powers. They were weaker than i expected." Super 17 said. The ponies was a little shocked. Super 17 has not only easily defeated Queen Chrysalis, but also her entire swarm of Changelings. How powerful is this guy? The Cmc was a little curious about the conversation, and eventually joined in. "Uuhh, excuse me. Do you know Super 17?" Sweetie belle asked her sister. "Yes, we know him alright. This ruffian bested us in combat, including the princesses." Rarity said. The crusaders were a little shocked, of his power, but not so much, since he already showed what he could do to Queen Chrysalis, and her swarm. "Now, before we continue our conversation..." Twilight said, before glancing over to Chrysalis. "... We will deal with you." Twilight said, with a mischievous and evil smile in her face, walking closer and closer to her, with her friends joining in, who also had mischievous and evil smiles in their faces. Super 17 didn't bother to join in. "She means nothing to me. I don't care." Super 17 said, clearly not interested in what the Mane 6 had in store for Chrysalis. "What... What are you doing to me? Help my Changelings. HELP!" She shouted to her Changelings, who was still unconscious. She was overwhelmed by the Mane 6's shadows, and everything turned black for Chrysalis. Later, Chrysalis, along with her Changelings, was captured in a room... Inside her own dungeon. None of the Changelings could get in or out. But the worst part, was a Pinkie pie costume, asking endless annoying riddles and songs. "What word rhymes with orange? While you think about it, let me sing a song! La la la! This is the song that will neveeeer end." The pinkie pie costume said, much to Queen Chrysalis's dismay, who has many bandages all over her. "Door hinge?" One of the Changelings said, trying to solve the riddle. "Door tinge?" Another Changeling suggested. "Shut up all of you. Just shut up." Queen Chrysalis yelled over to her Changelings. "One day Super 17. I will get you back! Just you wait." Chrysalis thought in her mind. All of them, were outside the kingdom. The Mane 6 looked at Super 17 with serious faces. "Okay, now that Chrysalis is out of the way. Can you explain to us, why you've freed our sisters?" Rarity asked him. The Mane 6 were ready for his answer, once he began opening his mouth. "I just saved them from their imprisonment." Super 17 simply responded. The Mane 6 was surprised by his answer, first he was seeing them as nothing more as inferior creatures, and now he has just saved some of them. But his answer was still questionable. "And can ya explain to us, why ya saved them?" Applejack asked. The Mane 6, and the Cmc looked at him. "Because... Because..." Super 17 said, but he had a hard time answering the question, since he thought that was his own personal business. "You know what, that's none of your business. I just do things." Super 17 said. The Mane 6 was confused at his answer, but also a little annoyed, since he haven't told exactly why. "That answer doesn't make any sense." Pinkie pie said. "Like i said, none of your business." Super 17 said, he now began to walk away, and was soon ready to take flight again. But then, his pants was pulled weakly by the Cmc. "Wait!" Apple bloom said, while still pulling him. Super 17 stopped walking at once. "We still want to know more about you." She said, her friends nodded in agreement. "You saved us, and the Cmc are now at ya service." Apple bloom said. The Mane 6 sighed at them. And then, Sweetie belle got an idea. "Wait, do you have a place to live?" Sweetie belle asked. Super 17 looked at her confused. "No. Why?" Super 17 asked confused. "Because you can come with us, to Ponyvile." Sweetie belle said, her friends nodded in agreement, the Mane 6 however, had their jaws fall down really hard to the ground. "WHAT?!" The Mane 6 all yelled out in confusion. Even Super 17 looked at her weird. "Why should i go with you?" He asked, the Cmc sighed, and then they got on their knees, and gave them some of the most cutest puppy eyes. "Please?" The Cmc pleaded, while Super 17 was immune to their puppy eyes, he felt that it may be a good opportunity to learn more about his new emotions. "Fine whatever." Super 17 sighed. The Cmc got back on their hooves, and cheered. "YAY!" They cheered. "We're gonna have so much fun together." They yelled out happily. Then the Mane 6, pulled them over to their side. "Uhm... Can we have a word with you three?" Twilight said to them. The Cmc was confused at their behavior toward Super 17. "Uhm, could you give us a second Super 17?" Apple bloom asked him. He rolled his eyes, simply not caring much about their upcoming conversation with the Mane 6. "We'll take that as a yes." Scootaloo said. The Mane 6 was now talking with the Cmc in a circle, and Twilight had the first word. "Girls, are you crazy?" Twilight almost yelled at them. "We're not taking this guy with us back to Ponyvile." Twilight said. "I have to agree with Twilight, i don't think this ruffian should take a step on Ponyvile." Rarity said. "I don't get it. You seem to know Super 17. But you don't seem to like him that much." Sweetie belle said. "Well, has this critter mentioned that he has beaten up both the princesses, and us?" Applejack asked. "No. But Rarity did." Sweetie belle simply said. "And we've seen him take on Chrysalis. You should have seen it." She said. Rarity sighed at the respond. "Well, maybe we should give him a chance." Fluttershy said, the Mane 6 looked at her, but they remembered what she said, back in Canterlot. While the Cmc happily smiled at Fluttershy. "Give him a chance now?! What has he proven, that he deserves a chance by us?" Rainbow dash asked her fellow pegasus friend. "Because he just saved your sisters from Chrysalis." Fluttershy simply answered Rainbow's question. The other 5 thought for a while, and then looked at the Cmc. "Okay, you three. We will give him a chance. But we still need to hold an eye on him." Twilight said to the Cmc. "YAY!" They cheered again. "And that doesn't mean we will fully trust him." Rainbow said, while the others nodded in agreement. "Now let's go home." Pinkie said. "But i will still throw him a "welcome to Ponyvile" party, once we get home." Pinkie thought in her head. "Come on Super 17!" Apple bloom yelled out to Super 17. He followed them in respond, since he don't know where Ponyvile is. "This may be interesting." He thought to himself. The journey home was long, just as long as the way to Chrysalis's kingdom was. On the way, Twilight tried to ask Super 17 a few personal questions, like who was your parents? What planet do you come from? Are you a martial artist? What is your favorite food/book/hobby? But Super 17 didn't answer any of the questions, due to not being interested, much to Twilight's dismay. And finally, they were home, good old Ponyvile. The damages, and the icky cocoons were gone, Ponyvile looked like it were once again. "Not a bad town." Super 17 thought to himself. He then saw another familiar pony appear, it was the princess of the moon Luna. She was approaching the Mane 6, and the Cmc. "It's good thou are back." Luna said. Not noticing Super 17 behind them. "We see thou have succeeded in your quest, in rescuing your siblings?" Princess Luna said to them. "Yes, they're freed Princess Luna. But..." Twilight said a little sceptical, she was not sure what to say, since they have brought with them, the same guy who easily defeated Celestia, Luna, and Queen Chrysalis. "What is it Twilight?" Luna asked Twilight. All of the Mane 6 were worried, they were not sure, if they should say, that Super 17 is right behind them. "Oh, she wanted say, that Super 17 helped us from her." Scootaloo said. The Mane 6 was shocked, at Scootaloo's answer. Princess Luna was quiet, very quiet. Until she became a lot more serious in her face. "Super 17 is here?! Where is he?" Luna said, with seriousness. "Right here, your majesty." Super 17 said, while coming out of the shadows. Luna gritted her teeth at him. "So thou have returned." She said, Super 17 smirked at her. "Look, i know what happened last time, i will behave... for now." Super 17 grinned at her. Princess Luna gritted her teeth more in respond. "THOU WILL NOW WITNESS THE TRUE POWER OF THE..." Princess Luna shouted out, with her royal Canterlot voice. But it was cut off by the Cmc. "Wait, Princess Luna, wait!" Apple bloom shouted to her. Princess Luna stopped at once. Looking at her confused. "It's... Kinda of a long story." Twilight said, with a nervous smile. Later, when the Mane 6 have explained, what has happened during their journey to Chrysalis's kingdom. They explained that when they have just arrived to the kingdom, they were about to plan a strategy, but then, the Super 17 intervened, and did all the work. And somehow, he has agreed the Cmc's proposal in going to Ponyvile with them. Princess Luna was very surprised at Super 17's actions. She glanced over at him, relaxing on a tree. Even through he barely needed any rest, he still kinda enjoyed it. Princess Luna has also called Princess Celestia out from Canterlot. So she can personally(hopefully without anymore fighting) meet with Super 17. And speak of the devil, Princess Celestia arrives in her chariot. The chariot landed on the ground, and Princess Celestia walked out of the chariot. She then walked over to Twilight. "My favorite student. It's good that you're alright." Princess Celestia said to her student. Twilight smiled in response. "I know." Twilight said. Then Celestia turned over to Super 17, still sitting on the tree. She walked over to him. "Super 17." She said to him. Super 17 opened his eyes, and saw another familiar face. "Oh you." He said, not much interested. The ponies got a little worried at 17's behavior to Celestia. Celestia however was very calm. "I just wanted to talk to you. Like making a few apologies." Celestia said. That got Super 17 enough attention, to jump out of the tree, and talk with her more personally. "Okay, what do you want to say then?" He asked the solar princess. "Well, i would like to apologize our hostile behavior to you at first." She said. "We didn't know if you were friend or foe." She also said. "Well, then you're kinda of a slow learner." He simply joked. Celestia chuckled a little. "We would also like to ask you a few questions." Celestia said. But Super 17 was not really into answering some personal questions right now. "Sorry, but those personal questions cannot be today." He said. The ponies looked more, and more worried. Celestia however took it quietly. "I understand Super 17. You may have had a rough day today." She said to him. Super 17 didn't really look tired, heck he doesn't even feel tired. "It's cool, i'm not really that tired, just not in the mood of answering questions." He said. Celestia understood, and smiled. "Very well, perhaps another time." She said. "By the way, i have also heard from my student, that you have saved three fillies today." She told the super android. "I must say, that's very surprising." She said, while Super 17 was leaning back at the tree. "Well, i can do lots of stuff, sometimes." Super 17 simply said. "I guess, you want to have some peace and quiet now?" She asked him. Super 17 nodded. She then walked back to the Mane 6, Luna, and the Cmc. "I guess Fluttershy's prediction from him maybe true." Celestia said, with some of them either nodding, or a little skeptical. "I don't know princess." Rainbow dash said. "I don't really fully trust that guy yet." She said, while pointing at the android. "Nor do you have to, Rainbow dash." Celestia responded to Rainbow. "But maybe, he has potential to do more good things in Equestria's future." Celestia said. The others looked at her, beginning to get confused at what she's saying. "Uuhh, princess. What are ya trying to say?" Applejack asked the solar princess. "I'm saying my dear Applejack, that maybe Super 17 should learn a little about friendship." Celestia responded. The others looked at each other, and became more worried about Celestia's decision on Super 17's future, in Equestria. > Chapter 5 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Mane 6 had a combination of surprised, confused, and shocked expressions at Princess Celesita's decision about Super 17. She wanted him to learn about the magic of friendship, the guy who kicked their flanks, showed hostility at the start, but then saved the Cmc from the wicked Changeling queen. "Learn this guy... About friendship?!" Rainbow dash almost yelled at Princess Celestia. "No offense at all Princess Celestia, but this guy doesn't look like the guy who want to express friendship." Rainbow said, while pointing at Super 17, who is still sitting on the tree. "I know that Rainbow dash." Princess Celestia said, who easily kept her cool. "But he did save your sisters from getting hurt by Queen Chrysalis." She said. Twilight then walked over to her teacher. "You know, maybe it's not a bad idea after all." Twilight said. "Maybe we can learn more about him if we show him more about friendship." Twilight said to Celestia, agreeing to her plan, to learn Super 17 about friendship. Rainbow dash then lightened up to the plan, but only a little. "You know, sometimes it's good to have an egghead as a friend." Rainbow dash said, Twilight slightly glared at Rainbow's remark. "But i still don't think he can be fully trusted, he may be plotting something. Maybe there is a reason why he came to Equestria?" Rainbow dash said. Celestia looks at Rainbow. "I understand your concern Rainbow dash, that's also why i'm preparing a memory spell on Super 17, so we can see what he has done in his past." Princess Celestia said. The Mane 6 was very interested in that idea. Twilight understood the plan about the memory spell, she has learned about it, back in her school for gifted unicorns. "Sounds good Princess Celestia, let's go inside his memories, and see if he's truly a friend or foe. Maybe even learn more about his species." Twilight said, getting really excited to learn about Super 17's biology. Celestia however shook her head. "But unfortunately it's not ready yet, for i don't have a memory watching spell strong enough on him yet." Celestia said, the others sighed in disappointment. "I think the memory spell is ready in a week." Celestia said. "Well, now that our plan for his memories is planned. Do you think Super 17 can learn more about friendship?" Princess Luna asked her elder sister. "In fact, does he even know about friendship?" Luna also asked her sister. "Maybe not when we met him at first, but maybe the elements of harmony could have something to do, with his slight change of personality." Celestia said, the others were beginning to get really confused about what Princess Celestia just said. "How could the elements have done anything to this guy?" Rainbow dash almost yelled, before getting shushed by the others, since they don't want to attract Super 17's attention. "The elements of harmony did little to nothing on him, when we first tried it on him." "That's true Rainbow dash. But you did remember he said that he absorbed the blast right?" Princess Celestia said, the Mane 6, and Princess Luna were slowly beginning to see Celestia's point. "The elements magic, needs the power of friendship to make them work. So when Super 17 absorbed the blast from the elements..." "They made him feel good emotions." Twilight said, while finishing the sentence, and realizing Celestia's point. "Maybe that's the reason why he didn't kill us, when he had the chance." Twilight said. "And maybe that's also why he rescued Sweetie belle, Apple bloom, and Scootaloo." Rarity said. All of them now see, that Super 17 may have a chance to get to know about friendship, well all but Rainbow dash of course. "Well, even if he absorbed a blast from the elements, he still got that smug attitude of his." Rainbow said. The other Mane 6 sighed, since Rainbow has a point, he still has most of his personality on him, even after absorbing the elements. "I know Rainbow, that's also why he should stay here to learn about friendship." Celestia said. That made all the others slightly calm down a bit. "Well, i think it's time for us to return to Canterlot my dear Luna." Celestia said, while slightly yawning, it was also soon dark, and Luna need to go back, and rise the moon. "Yes, we need some rest from today." Princess Luna said, while also yawning in exhaustion. The two sisters then walked up to their chariot. "Good luck, my little ponies." Princess Celestia said to the Mane 6. The Mane 6 waved goodbye to them, while the chariot flew them back to Canterlot. Now the Mane 6 had a new topic to talk about. "Okay, now where should Super 17 sleep for tonight?" Twilight asked. The other 5 looked at each other. "Well, he is not sleeping in my cloud house." Rainbow quickly responded. "I don't know if he can walk on clouds. Even through he can fly without wings." Rainbow dash also said, before thinking. "I also need to ask him how he can fly without wings later." "Ohh, ohh, he can sleep with me. Then me and 17 can talk with each other, bake cupcakes with each other, look at Gummy with each other, eat the cupcakes we have just baked with each other, and many other stuff i couldn't write to my textbox but still can do with each other." Pinkie pie said, the others clearly couldn't follow what she just said. "Pinkie, i don't think 17 is the "let's go out and hang out" type." Rainbow said, Pinkie sighed in annoyance. "Well, maybe a party tomorrow for him will change that." Pinkie said, while planning a party for Super 17. "Well, that critter ain't sleeping with in Sweet Apple Acres. He might give Granny Smith a mighty heart attack at first look." Applejack said, not wanting Super 17 to sleep at her house. "Then what about my Library?" Twilight said. "I have plenty of room, plus then Spike and Owlowiscious will have some more company." "And then you will ask him a few thousand questions?" Rarity chuckled at Twilight. Twilight blushed embarrassingly at Rarity for her remark. "Actually, i would have just asked him a few hundred." Twilight said, before sighing when the others shook their heads. "Alright fine, i won't ask him any before tomorrow." Twilight said in disappointment. "Well, maybe Super 17 can have a night sleep at my Carousel Boutique. Then Sweetie belle could have some more company." Rarity said. "And then you will ask him to try a few thousand uniforms?" Twilight said, giving a little payback for Rarity's remark before. Now Rarity blushed in embarrassment. "Well... I see your point." Rarity said. Then Fluttershy was left, they haven't asked her for making Super 17's current living place. "Well... He can go with me, i don't think my animals will mind him. Maybe except Angel." Fluttershy said, and now that was decided. "Okay, then it's decided. From now on, Super 17 will crash at Fluttershy's cottage." Twilight said. All 6 of them then walked over to Super 17, who was still relaxing on the nearby tree. "Yo! 17!" Rainbow said, gaining Super 17's attention. "What?" Super 17 asked. "We have decided the place, where you are gonna live for now." Twilight said. "Oh really? With who?" Super 17 asked, not very much interested. "With... With me." Fluttershy shyly said to him. Super 17 looked at her, he didn't really mind going with any of them(maybe except the pink one). "Fine, whatever." Super 17 said. They glared a little at Super 17. "Erh... You are welcome." Rainbow said sarcastically. But they decided to let it go, it was bedtime after all. "Please, follow me mr 17." Fluttershy said to him. She walked the way back to her cottage, with Super 17 following. "Well, i think the cows need to shut their eyes." Applejack said, before walking back home. "Yeah, see ya tomorrow." Rainbow dash said, while flying back to her cloud house. "Goodnight Pinkie pie and Rarity." Twilight said, beginning to walk back to Golden Oak Library. "Nighty lighty Rarity." Pinkie pie said, who then somehow disappeared. "Well, some beauty sleep will do nicely." Rarity said, now walking back home. Meanwhile, Super 17 has just arrived to Fluttershy's cottage. It was quite small, and filled with tons of different animals, including some mice, some birds, a rabbit, and even a bear close to his size. "Quite a small house you got." Super 17 complimented Fluttershy's cottage. "Well... I wouldn't call it a house. More like a cottage, if you don't mind." Fluttershy said. Angel, her pet bunny glared at Super 17. Super 17 looked at him, with an uninterested look. "Why are you glaring at me?" Super 17 asked. Angel then took a carrot out, and then threw it right at Super 17, but to Angel's surprise, Super 17 quickly grabbed it, right before it could make contact to 17's face. "I'm surprised, that you actually have the guts to do that to someone like me." Super 17 said, complimenting Angel's courage. Then Fluttershy gave an angry look at Angel. "ANGEL! You don't just throw carrots at others." Fluttershy scolded her pet bunny. "I know he may look big and scary, but he is still our guest." Fluttershy continued scolding Angel, while giving him the stare. Angel then nodded in fear, and looked appologizingly at her. "Uhh... No offense." Fluttershy apologized Super 17, for describing as big and scary. "Whatever." Super 17 simply said, who didn't really care. Then Fluttershy turned over to 17. "Hey, may i offer you some salad, or some carrots?" Fluttershy offered to Super 17. "No thanks. Not hungry." Super 17 said, refusing the offer. In fact, he was never really hungry, since he's an android, he doesn't require neither food or water to survive. "Oh, okay." Fluttershy said. "If you want, you can sleep in my bed." Fluttershy offered. "Nah, i will just sit down on your couch." Super 17 said, while walking over, and sitting on the couch, he didn't need sleep either, but he could use some sitting down for a change. "Oh, uhh... Goodnight then." Fluttershy said, before flying over to her bed. Super 17 meanwhile begins to think about the things that have been going here in this new place, he has been sent to for barely 8 hours ago. "I hope, that i don't regret being here in the first place." Super 17 thought to himself, while looking at the many animals, beginning to fall asleep. Next day, Fluttershy began her usual morning routine, feeding her animals, and seeing her friends. When she got out of bed, and flew over to her living room, she saw Super 17, and her jaw almost dropped, when she saw that he was still sitting in the couch, he has barely moved from the spot. "Super 17? Have you been up all night?!" Fluttershy almost screamed in surprise, she has never seen somepony, or any type of animal staying awake for an entire night, without even moving from the spot. "Yes i have. Do you have a problem?" Super 17 asked the still jaw dropped Fluttershy. She eventually broke her silence. "No, but you shouldn't stay up all night. It's not healthy for your mental health." Fluttershy said, trying to advice him to not stay awake for that long. "You must be really tired. But i can make you some coffee, it can help you with staying awake." Fluttershy said, while making some coffee for Super 17. "Tired? I'm certainly not tired at all." Super 17 said. Fluttershy's jaw would have hit the ground right now, if her body lacked bones right now. "NOT TIRED AT ALL?!" Fluttershy yelled in a huge surprise, which also surprised all her animals, due to not usually hearing Fluttershy yell out something. "Oh... Sorry." Fluttershy apologized to her animals, each of the animals made a sign each meaning "None taken." to her. "How is it possible that you can stay up all night, without getting tired?" Fluttershy asked the super android. "I'm an android. And androids doesn't needs any sleep." Super 17 answered Fluttershy's question. Fluttershy has thought to herself a very good question about Super 17. "What's an android?" Fluttershy thought to herself. She decided to either ask him later, or see his memories when Celestia's memory spell for him is complete. "Oh, and Super 17." Fluttershy said, while he looks at her. "I also want you to spend some time with my friends. So you can both get full introductions to them, and know a little more about them." Fluttershy said. "Oh really?" Super 17 said. "Who's first?" "Let's start with Twilight. I think she wants to ask you a few questions." Fluttershy said, while walking out of her cottage, with Super 17 following. "Let's hope something interesting is gonna happen." Super 17 thought to himself. Fluttershy and Super 17 walked through Ponyvile, the other ponies were a little afraid of Super 17. Not very much surprising, since they have never seen someone like him. Most of the ponies backed away. "You said something about introductions right?" Super 17 asked Fluttershy. "Yes?" Fluttershy said. "Well, then shouldn't you introduce me to you. You've never told me your name for an example." Super 17 said. "Oh right. I'm Fluttershy." Fluttershy said shyly, which also almost sounded like whispering. "Fluttershy huh? Quite a unique name." Super 17 complimented her. Fluttershy was now surprised, that Super 17 has actually heard her, even through she was almost whispering. They have now arrived to the Golden Oak Library. Fluttershy knocked on the door, and then Twilight opened it. "Oh, good morning Fluttershy." Twilight said, before seeing Super 17 behind Fluttershy. "Oh, and you too 17." "Hello." Super 17 said, making a very simple introduction. "I guess i haven't introduced you to me exactly, when we first met? Anyway, my name is Twilight Sparkle." Twilight said, introducing herself. "Twilight Sparkle? I thought your name was Twilight?" Super 17 said. "Twilight is just my name for short, just like i just called you 17." Twilight said. Super 17 doesn't really admit much, but he has to say, that Twilight has a point there. "And Fluttershy here, said that i have to be here." Super 17 said, while walking inside the library. The library was filled with tons of books. "Well, see ya later Twilight, i have to feed my animals." Fluttershy said, before walking back to her cottage. "See ya Fluttershy." Twilight said, while waving to Fluttershy. She then looked over at Super 17. "Okay 17, do you mind if i ask you a few questions? For the last time i tried you just ignored me." Twilight said, she was slightly annoyed that Super 17 didn't respond to a single question she asked him on their way back to Ponyvile. "Not really, there is not much to do right now." Super 17 said. Then a purple drake like creature came from the stairs. "Hey Twilight, are their anymore gems for me to..." The drake said, before seeing a tall humanoid being, right in the middle of the library. "Twilight. What... What is that thing?" The drake said, almost peeing himself in fear. "Is he always like this?" Super 17 asked, while looking slightly annoyed at being called a thing. "Spike. That's the one we've originally been sent to beat, but then saved the Cmc. If you remember the talk we had last night." Twilight said to the drake, now known as Spike. "Oh, right." Spike said, he then walked over to the tall man. "Hi i'm Spike. What's your name?" "I'm Super 17." Super 17 responded. Spike looked slightly confused at the slightly weird name. "Super 17. Sounds weird." Spike said. "Spike! Don't be rude to him." Twilight said. "Do you also remember the part, where i told you he can shoot beams out of his claws." Twilight said. Super 17 almost chuckled, they clearly don't know that it's hands, and not claws. "Oh right, sorry." Spike apologized to him. "Yeah whatever." Super 17 just said. "Is he always like this?" Spike asked. "Hopefully, for now." Twilight said. She then took some notes, and a pen, while sitting on her chair. Super 17 also sat on a chair. "Alright, like i said, i have a few questions. Just please answer a few this time." Twilight pleaded Super 17. "Fine, maybe a few wouldn't hurt." Super 17 said, he just wanted those questions over as soon as possible. "Okay, first question. What species are you?" Twilight asked. "An android." He simply answered. "And would you care to describe your android species?" She asked. "No." He answered. "But..." "I said no." Super 17 said, much to Twilight's annoyance. "Fine. Question two. What do androids eat?" "Nothing." He answered. "Nothing?!" She said, making her really confused. "Then how are you even alive?" "Another time maybe." "Alright. Question three. And that's the last one for today. Do you have a family?" She asked. That question made Super 17 silent. He remembered the time, he had with his sister Android 18, who later married the little bald man. He also remembered the time, with his wife and kid, but can't remember what happened to them. Then there are his parents. He can't remember them either. But they have probably passed away, long before Dr Gero activated him to take on the Z fighters. "I... Don't want to talk about it." Super 17 said. Twilight was surprised that he has answered something else than no or nothing this time. But also felt slightly bad for him, since he must have had a bad family experience, due to him not wanting to talk about it. "I'm... I'm sorry for asking." Twilight apologized. She then took her notes she has written, and put it on the table. "Okay, i think it's time for you to see Rarity." Twilight said. "Rarity!" Spike yelled out, he obviously want to come with them. "Can i see Rarity too? Please!" Spike said with puppy eyes. "Okay, okay Spike." Twilight chuckled. The three of them then walked over to Rarity. The three of them walked through Ponyvile, and then stopped at Carousel Boutique. Twilight knocked at the door, and then Rarity responded by opening the door. "Why hello Twilight. I see that you want Super 17 here a little huh?" Rarity asked, with her usual fancy accent. "Yes, and you don't mind that Spike is with him too?" Twilight asked. "Of course not. Maybe i could use a little assistance for my new dresses." Rarity said, while looking at both Spike and 17. "And by the way, the names Rarity." Rarity introduced herself to him. "Charmed." Super 17 said. "Well, then i'm off. I need to check a few notes." Twilight said, before going back to her library. Rarity, Spike, and 17 then walked inside the shop. It looked very fancy, and had many dress designs all over the place. "Fancy place you live in huh?" Super 17 complimented her home. Rarity blushed at Super 17's compliment, while Spike got slightly jealous. "Why thank you darling. I like when somepony give good compliments about my beautiful shop." She said. "By the way, maybe i should design you some new clothes." Rarity said, while tape measuring Super 17. "New clothes? An interesting idea." Super 17 said. "Of course. For those jeans, that sweater, and the west you are wearing, i don't think they suit you that much." Rarity said. Super 17 looked insulted when he heard her compliment his attire. "Are you saying my attire is dumb?" Super 17 sternly asked. Rarity felt nervous when she heard his voice sounding slightly threatening. "Uhh... No of course not. I'm just saying that your clothes need some new makeovers or something." Rarity said in defense. "Then you should know, that my attire is the one i'm wearing, and you can't change that." Super 17 said, then Spike walked right in front of Rarity, who was as usual trying to protect her. "Listen here buster, Rarity is the best(and only) dress designer in Ponyvile, so you should respect her talents." Spike said sternly. "Now now boys, everypony have their own opinions." Rarity said, but that didn't help much for Super 17's mood. But then, a certain white filly came from the stairs, and saw Super 17. "Hi there Super 17." Sweetie belle greeted the android. "How are your time in Ponyvile?" She asked him. "Meh, alright i'll say." Super 17 simply responded. "Sounds good, if you will excuse me, i need to crusade with my friends." Sweetie belle said happily, while walking out the door. "Uuhhmm... I think we should call it off for now. I think you should see Applejack, for then i have enough time to make you a fine suit 17." Rarity said. That eventually helped Super 17's mood a little. "Okay, let's go." Super 17 said, while walking out the door. "Spike, can you be a darling and look after my shop, while i'm following 17 to Sweet Apple Acres?" Rarity asked Spike. "Sure, anything for you." Spike said dreamingly. Then Rarity and Super 17 walked out of the door, leaving Spike to watch the place. The two of them walked through Ponyvile, and then they reached some landmarks, where a farm is standing, along with a barn nearby. Super 17 saw apple trees all over the place, and a familiar orange earth pony kicking a few trees, the apples on the tree fell down the baskets on impact. "This Super 17 darling, is Sweet Apple Acres. The best apple selling place in Equestria." Rarity said, while introducing the farm. The farm pony Applejack walked over to them. "Howdy there Rarity." Applejack said, before turning over to Super 17. "I'm Applejack, and i will make sure you behave." Applejack said, while slightly glaring at 17. "Don't worry, i won't cause any trouble." Super 17 chuckled, that only worried Applejack more. "Now now Applejack, you do remember that were giving him a chance right?" Rarity said to her. Applejack in respond sighed. "Yes i know that Rarity. But we still need to keep an eye on him, which is what i'm gonna do now." Applejack said. "Then, i must say ta ta for now." Rarity said, before returning to her boutique. Applejack then looks at Super 17, who is looking at the farm's many apple trees around the area. "Apple trees huh? Sounds like you're the type of pony that works all day." Super 17 said. "You are darn tooting right about that. And i need to return to work, and ya better not make any trouble while i'm at it." Applejack said threateningly to him. "You, doing all these chores. Doesn't really add up if you ask me." Super 17 said. "I'm the only one at work right now. Apple bloom is hanging out with her fellow crusaders. Big mac is currently helping Cheerilee. And Granny Smith's sleeping. So i need to work, that's how the apple family is." Applejack explains to Super 17 about her family business. "Well, maybe i should do a little exercise, with those trees of yours." Super 17 said, he was about to approach an apple tree, but then Applejack stormed right in front of him. "Don't even think about it partner. You ain't touching those trees, especially if have the idea of breaking them." Applejack said to him. She doesn't want Super 17 destroying those trees. "It's just a couple of trees. You have over a hundred." Super 17 said. But Applejack still refuses. "Don't ya use this fancy math on me. All these trees are very special." Applejack said. "What's so special about them? Are they made of orange seeds?" Super 17 said sarcastically. Applejack wasn't proud of his attitude. "No, they were a part of finding Equestria." Applejack said. "But anyway, if ya really wanna exercise, then why don't ya help me get those trees on these baskets." Applejack offered him. Super 17 agreed, since he could use a little exercise. "Fine." He simply said. "Okay, all ya have to do, is kicking those trees, like this." Applejack said, she walked over to the nearest tree, and bucked it really hard, the apples in the tree fell off, and landed on the baskets. "Now you do it." Applejack commanded. "Alright alright, sheesh ya have an attitude." Super 17 said, while slightly mocking Applejack's accent. Applejack grunted in respond. Super 17 walked over to the nearest tree, and kicked it very hard, which resulted in the tree flying backwards, and taking all the trees behind it, with it. Applejack's jaw has already felt to the ground, she then looked angrily at Super 17. "Why did ya destroy those trees?!" Applejack angrily said. "Ya said, kick the trees. Not how hard i should kick it." Super 17 slightly mocked, while smirking at Applejack. Applejack glared angrily at him. "Then don't use any strength okay." Applejack harshly said. She then continued her work. Super 17 looked, and saw how many trees there are. "This takes forever. I'm ending this quickly." Super 17 thought to himself. He walked over to a nearby tree. Applejack of course saw it, she then tried to stop him. "Oh no, ya better not destroy those trees." Applejack said, but then to her surprise, he formed a fist, and punched the ground, which created a shockwave over all the trees. Then after a few seconds, all the trees lost their apples, and landed on their respective baskets. Applejack was incredibly surprised, first he destroyed a few trees, but then he did the work for her. "You are welcome." Super 17 said. "Well, maybe i judged ya a little too early. But you still need to pay off the trees ya have destroyed." Applejack said. "But anyway now that the job's done, maybe you can go see Pinkie pie, i've heard that she wants to meet you at Sugarcube corner so badly." "Alright." Super 17 said. Both of them then walked out of Sweet Apple Acres. Meanwhile, Granny Smith walked out of the house, and was very shocked, when she saw all the trees have not only lost all their apples, but also a quarter of the trees have been destroyed. "Well, what in Celestia's name has happened here?" Granny Smith said confused. Super 17 was now crossing Ponyvile again, the reactions from the ponies was still the same. They eventually arrived to Sugarcube corner, a cake shop in Ponyvile. "That's the most weirdest building i've ever seen." Super 17 thought to himself about Sugarcube corner. "This is Sugarcube corner, Ponyvile's cake shop. And Pinkie pie is hopefully waiting for you inside." Applejack said. Both of them walked inside, it was very dark. Applejack couldn't see a thing. Super 17 however could feel something. "That's strange. I can feel multiple energy signatures in here." Super 17 thought to himself. He could feel many low power levels in the shop. It was then the darkness disappeared, and was replaced with light, and plenty of ponies around the room. With a certain pink pony appearing out of nowhere. "Hi Super seventeeny. You have just arrived to my special "Welcome to Sugarcube corner, which is in Ponyvile, and were sorry for attacking you on our first meeting" party. I have thrown it just for you." Pinkie pie said. "By the way, my name's Pinkie pie. And we will be very good friends. Pinkie pie said, who is introducing herself. "I'm impressed, that you can make all these arrangements so quickly." Super 17 said, he was surprised that someone could throw a party that fast. Applejack walked over to Super 17 to inform him something. "That's Pinkie pie, just go with it." Applejack said. Pinkie pie then came with some cupcakes. "Alright everypony, it's cupcake-time!" Pinkie pie said, while giving each pony in there a delicious cupcake for them to eat. She eventually gave one to Super 17. "Sorry, but i'm not eating the cupcake." Super 17 said, much to everypony especially Pinkie pie's surprise. "Are you saying that you don't like my cupcakes?" Pinkie pie said, with her mane beginning to deflate. "No, i'm saying that i can't eat a cupcake." Super 17 said, surprising everypony even more. "What the hay do ya mean, that ya can't eat a cupcake?" Applejack asked very confused. But before Super 17 can get more questions, a certain cyan rainbow maned pegasus arrived to the scene. "Hi everypony. Rainbow dash's here. Never need to fear." Rainbow dash said, pridefully. The ponies cheered for her arrival, while Applejack sighed in annoyance. Super 17 has to admit, that she reminds him of himself, before he became Super 17. She then flew over to Super 17. "I see that you have a party huh?" Rainbow dash asked him. "And what's with it to you?" Super 17 asked her. "It's all the attention you get. You may be new in Ponyvile, but that doesn't make you cooler than me." Rainbow dash said confidently. "You are right. That doesn't make me cooler than you." Super 17 said, Rainbow dash in respond smiled with pride, that was however broken in Super 17's next sentence. "That makes me superior to you." Super 17 said, mocking the rainbow pegasus. Rainbow dash snarled in respond. "Well, i Rainbow dash will prove that i'm better than you." She said confidently. "And how will you do that?" Super 17 said. She clearly doesn't know who she's up against. "You and me, in a race!" Rainbow dash challenged Super 17, who in return grinned at her. "Then by all means, bring it on." Super 17 said. "Good, meet me at the White tail woods, in 20 minutes. Then i will prove that i'm 20 percent cooler than you." Rainbow dash said. She then flew off again. Super 17 meanwhile looked very confident. Applejack walked over to the android. "Excuse me 17, but ya do know what you're racing one of the fastest fliers in Equestria right?" Applejack slightly warning him, who he's up against, but despite the warning, he still looked confident. "Then the race just makes me more excited." Super 17 said, while Applejack sighs. All of them were in the White tail woods, the same place Applejack and Rainbow dash tied in a race, except they tied in last place. Pinkie pie was in the air balloon just like last time, so she could keep an eye on the competitors. The Mane 6 except Rainbow dash and Pinkie pie were all sitting with the audience. "I hope Rainbow dash know what she's doing." Fluttershy said, slightly worried that she's going up against 17. "Oh, i'm sure that Rainbow dash can beat him. After all, she's the fastest pony we know." Rarity said. While looking over to Fluttershy. "I don't know Rarity. Super 17 is full of surprises. He could fly, without wings." Twilight said. While sitting besides Rarity. "Either Rainbow wins, or the race will be a tie hopefully." Applejack said. Then all of them heard Pinkie pie making her speech. "Ladies, and gentlecolts, today we have a race between a pony, and a humanoid being Lyra is describing." Pinkie pie yelled out. "HUMAN?! Where?" Lyra in the background said, popping her head out from the crowd. Bon-Bon eventually pulled her back. "Anyway, on my left side, we have Ponyvile's best cloud kicker, the fastest flier in Equestria, and one of the Elements of Harmony. RAINBOW DASH!" Pinkie yelled out, introducing to them, their favorite flier Rainbow dash. "Woohhh! Go Rainbow dash." Scootaloo cheered from behind, the same did the crowd. "And on my right side, we have Ponyvile's new guest, the one who has many surprises in his hooves, except he doesn't have any hooves. SUPER 17! Pinkie yelled out, introducing to them, the stranger who Pinkie pie has thrown a party to, and also the same guy who has walked around Ponyvile for some time. "Uhhh... Go 17." Fluttershy cheered for Super 17, she was also the only one who cheered on him, the others except the Mane 6 sat in silence. "The race is simple, both competitors have to race around the field, only once. The one who reaches the finish line is the winner." Pinkie pie yelled out, while gaining cheer from behind. Both Rainbow dash, and Super 17 was at the start line. Both looking very confident. Rainbow also had a flying tortoise beside her. "I'm glad that you can be here Tank. For i want you to see me best this guy's flank." Rainbow said to Tank while pointing at Super 17. "I'm surprised that your pet is a tortoise. Especially a tortoise that can fly." Super 17 chuckled. "Laugh all you want. Tank here will watch me kick your flank." Rainbow said confidently. "We shall see." Is all Super 17 thought. Then both competitors were at the start line. Both ready to race. "All right." Pinkie pie said. "ARE YOU READY?" Pinkie pie yelled to the competitors. "YES!" Rainbow responded. "Let's just get this over with." Super 17 responded. "All right, on your marks." The two looked ready. "Get set." "They both looked like they were about to fly. "GO!" Pinkie pie yelled out, then both of them flew out at incredible speed. The crowd almost fell off their sitting places. Rainbow dash flew incredibly fast, she looked behind her, but didn't see her opponent. "Heh, guess i he must have eaten my dust." Rainbow dash said. "Whose dust?" A voice said from above her, she looked up, and saw Super 17 flying right above her. "How... How did you catch up to me so fast, and even off guard?" Rainbow asked confused, while still flying really fast. "I could also ask you, why you're so slow?" Super 17 asked with a mocking voice. Rainbow got pissed at Super 17's mockery. "Alright that's it. I'm speeding up!" Rainbow dash yelled out, she then flew even faster, but Super 17 easily caught up to her. They flew over many trees, and most of the trees they flew past lost their leaves. "Is that all you got?" Super 17 said. Rainbow dash was beginning to catch her breath. "No! You will see." Rainbow dash yelled out to him. She then flew past more trees. So did Super 17. "Man, she's quite cocky, i give her that. It's just too bad, that i'm not using my full speed. But i don't think it's even required." Super 17 thought to himself. He then speeded up even further, catching up to Rainbow dash once again. "How are you keeping up with me all the time?!" Rainbow dash yelled out. "I just do, in fact, i'm not even trying." Super 17 mocked her again. "Alright then, then try to catch up with my Sonic rainboom!" Rainbow yelled out, who begins to gain an incredible increase in speed. "Sonic rainboom?" Super 17 said. Then Rainbow dash flew at her greatest speed. With the Sonic rainboom. "Not bad at all. Too bad it won't make a difference."Super 17 said, before also gaining an incredible increase in speed. He then caught up to Rainbow dash once again, she was incredibly shocked. "What! You're catching up with me?! Even with my Sonic rainboom!" Rainbow yelled to him. "Well it was fun while it lasted, but i have a race to finish." Super 17 said, now getting even more speed, which easily outruns Rainbow's Sonic rainboom. Rainbow was now shocked beyond belief. "That's... That's not possible." Rainbow dash said, who was incredibly shocked. Super 17 then crossed(if not, destroyed) the finish line. Everypony, even Pinkie pie was shocked at Super 17's incredible speed. "Our winner... Is Super 17." Pinkie pie said, while still shocked, her jaw has also fallen to the ground. Then Rainbow dash arrived, and she almost looked like, she wanted to cry. "Man, for someone who claims to be the fastest, your as slow as your Pet tortoise" Super 17 taunted her. Rainbow looked sadly to the ground. "I... I lost?!" Rainbow dash said sadly. > Chapter 6 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash was beyond shocked today. She has just challenged Super 17 to a race, and lost the race, right in front of everypony in Ponyvile. She lost some tears, her pride has been shattered in pieces. And the crowd, especially Scootaloo had a huge jaw drop. Rainbow Dash has lost to a stranger, a stranger who could fly much faster than even Rainbow Dash could ever do. "I... Lost? How can i lose?!" Rainbow Dash said sadly. "You lost fairly enough, if you ask me." Super 17 said. He had a huge smirk in his face. "Uhhh.... Super 17 is the winner?" Pinkie Pie said from the air balloon, while still having her jaw dropped to the floor. "I... I gotta go!" Rainbow Dash said, before flying away. Super 17 saw her fly toward the skies. "Rainbow Dash! Come back!" Applejack yelled out to her sad friend. But to no avail, Rainbow Dash was already out of sight. "Poor Rainbow Dash." Fluttershy said, while feeling bad for her, losing to Super 17. "Her pride must have really been broken, after losing this race." Fluttershy said. "I know darling, we need to make sure, that she's alright." Rarity said in concern. Twilight looked over to the super android. "Super 17, i think you should talk to her." Twilight said to him. Super 17 gave her a weird look in respond. "Why should i?" He asked. "Because that's what a true friend should do, to one another." Twilight responded. Then, that's where he feels his special feelings again, telling him to do as Twilight says, and talk to Rainbow Dash. "Okay fine. I will talk to her, but don't blame me if she doesn't accept any apologies." Super 17 said, before flying to the same direction Rainbow Dash flew. The other Mane 5 looked up in concern. "I hope this goes out fine." Fluttershy thought in concern. Rainbow Dash was sitting on the top of a cloud, she was very very sad. Super 17 beat her in a race, without even trying. Her title, and pride as the fastest flier in Equestria has been broken like glass. "How can he beat me? I'm the fastest flier in Equestria. But he flew past my Sonic Rainboom." Rainbow Dash said, while recollecting the things that happened in the race. "I can't show my face around Ponyvile again. I would be a laughing stock." Rainbow dash said sadly, while imagining many random ponies, making a fool out of her. But then, she saw a very familiar face flying toward her. It was the same one who beat her in a race, none other than Super 17. Rainbow Dash looked unassumingly at him. "Look, you won the race alright. Happy? Now leave me alone!" Rainbow Dash angrily said. Super 17 however ignored her anger, and walked closer to her. "Look, i know you lost in a race, but that doesn't mean you should fly away, and cry." Super 17 said, that barely helped Rainbow's mood. "Oh really? Well you insulted my speed, once you won the race." Rainbow Dash snapped at him. Super 17 barely moved the spot, at Rainbow's angry attitude. He then sat beside her, Rainbow Dash was reluctant at him doing so, but then felt, she should just let him do so. "Although i won the race, you still gave me some excitement, by racing you." Super 17 complimented her. "You may even become faster than me." He said, that actually helped Rainbow's mood a little. "Really?" Rainbow said surprised. "Really. Besides, you do remind me of someone i know." Super 17 said. "Who?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Me." Super 17 responded. Rainbow was quite surprised at his answer. "You were just like me?" Rainbow dash asked him. "Many years ago, i was quite a rebel. Not really someone who should be pushed over by someone." Super 17 said, while slightly describing his past. "That sounds like something, i would also do." Rainbow Dash said. Super 17 nodded. "Indeed, i also loved playing games with those who does so, along with my sister." Super 17 said. "Sister? You have a sister?" She asked. Super 17 decided to tell her a little about his sister. "Yes i have. Her name is Android 18, and she's my older twin sister." Super 17 said, while telling about his sister, Android 18. "Android 18?" Rainbow Dash said. "Is that one of the reasons, your name has 17 in it?" Rainbow Dash asked, trying to realize what the 17 part in his name was for. "You could say that." Super 17 chuckled, before going back to the real topic. "But anyway, about the race, i know your feeling." He said. "I would also feel bad about losing at something." Super 17 said. "But that doesn't mean i should just quit, and run away." Super 17 now said, Rainbow now looked slightly confused at him. "What are you trying to tell me?" Rainbow Dash asked 17. "That even if you lose at something, you should stand up, and try again." Super 17 said, giving Rainbow Dash the advice of trying again someday, just like he would do himself. Rainbow Dash now fully realizes what he's trying to tell her, which in case, fully helped her mood. "You are right 17. I shouldn't just quit, even if i lose. I should just improve my speed, and then try again." Rainbow Dash said. Super 17 in respond smiled at her for real, something he hasn't done for a long time, since after becoming Super 17. He was quite interested in Rainbow Dash's personality, since she's just like himself. Rainbow Dash then took her hoof out toward him. "Friends?" Rainbow Dash asked, now no longer feeling any pure negativity toward him. Super 17 chuckled, and took her hoof, in a handshake(or hoofshake in that case). "Very well." Super 17 said in respond. The two then made a friendly handshake. They then began letting go of each other. "I think we should head back to Ponyvile. My friends must be worried about me." Rainbow Dash said. "Then let's race there." Super 17 said. "Bring it." Rainbow Dash confidently, but in a more friendly manner. The two of them then flew from the cloud, they were once sitting on, and flew back toward Ponyvile. The Mane 5 was back in Ponyvile, and neither Rainbow Dash, nor Super 17 has returned. They were beginning to get more and more worried about Rainbow Dash's loss. "I hope the two of them, have settled their conflict." Fluttershy, said both shyly, and worried. "I ain't sure Fluttershy. Maybe Super 17 will just make Rainbow's ox even angrier." Applejack said, not very confident that Super 17 has resorted the little conflict. "Oh, come on Applejack. It was just a race. No harm's been done." Rarity said. "Maybe except Rainbow's pride." Pinkie Pie pointed out. The others glared a little at her. "You aren't helping Pinkie." Twilight scolded Pinkie Pie. "Sorry." Pinkie Pie apologized. The Mane 5, then heard something incredibly fast, approaching them. "Can ya hear something?" Applejack asked. "Maybe it's Rainbow Dash." Fluttershy said. The Manne 5, looked toward the sound of them speed. They saw not only Rainbow Dash, but also Super 17 beside her. "It's them." Twilight said. The two fliers now landed on the ground, and to the Mane 5's surprise, they were actually smiling to each other. "Darn it, i almost beat you." Rainbow Dash said. "Yes almost. But almost isn't good enough." Super 17 talked back. The two fliers then saw the Mane 5 approaching them. "I can see, you two have already made up, with one another?" Twilight asked them both. "Of course we have Twilight. Super 17 is now my new buddy." Rainbow Dash said, while having her hoof around Super 17's shoulder. The Mane 5 was really surprised. Super 17 has actually befriended someone, and that someone is Rainbow Dash. "Wow. How did you do that?" Rarity asked him. Not many has truly befriended Rainbow Dash so quickly. "I just inspired her, to race me again, until she wins of course." Super 17 answered. "And i'm always ready for a challenge, and win it." He slightly boasted. Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity sighed at his boasting, while Fluttershy was smiling at him, for making up with Rainbow dash, and Pinkie Pie was really happy about that. "Oh, this calls for a "It's all gonna be ok for Rainbow Dash party" Pinkie Pie happily cheered, she then ran off to Sugarcube corner, to prepare another party once again. "Well, i'm glad that not only you two made up with each other. But also because that you have proven, that you actually do have some good inside of you." Fluttershy said, with the Mane 6(except Pinkie Pie) nodding in agreement. They now know, that Super 17 can actually be trusted after all. "Well, ya still broke some of my trees earlier, could ya help me regrowing some?" Applejack asked Super 17. "Maybe if the job is not boring." Super 17 responded to Applejack, who sighed. "Well, a few things in him is still the same." Twilight pointed out, while all of them made a good laugh. The 6 of them then walked over to Sugarcube corner, to see Pinkie Pie's new thrown party. Meanwhile in a rock farm, far away from Ponyvile, a cloaked mare, was getting some money, from her work. She then walked away, and began to walk through a route, which lead to a city. "Soon Twilight... Soon we shall meet again. And this time... You will pay." The mare said, while walking toward the city. > Chapter 7 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Days later, during a rainy night, since Super 17's race with Rainbow Dash. The cloaked pony is entering an empty marketplace, in Canterlot. The door to the shop rang, and a grey stallion appeared. "May I help you, traveler? Hmm, something drew you to my shop... something powerful." The shopkeeper asked, while the cloaked pony, pointed at an amulet, shaped like an alicorn, and had a gem on it. "Ah, you have a keen eye. The Alicorn Amulet is one of the most mysterious and powerful of all the known magical charms." The shopkeeper said, while the cloaked pony, made certain signals, that that's the thing, that she wanted to buy. "Uh, ah— I'm afraid this is... far too dangerous." The shopkeeper said, while hesitated in selling the amulet. But the cloaked pony in respond, just took out a large bag of bits, and threw it on the counter. "Would you like that gift-wrapped?" The shopkeeper quickly said, while preparing, to give his client, the amulet. Later, the cloaked mare exited the shop, and begins to walk to the nearest train station. "Soon, soon you will pay... Twilight Sparkle." The cloaked mare muttered. Two days has past, during Super 17's stay in Ponyvile. And many things has happened, during his stay. First, Pinkie Pie has cloned herself, with the help of a magical pool, and needed to get rid of the clones, without getting rid of Pinkie Pie first. Super 17 helped them(because he couldn't stand all those Pinkie Pies, due to them being incredibly annoying), and send all of them to the town hall. He even got rid of most of them, with the help of his Ki sense, but had a few problems, due to not knowing Pinkie Pie as much as Rainbow Dash. The other day, the Cmc were getting bullied by three fillies. While the first two were complete bullies, and their names were Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, the last one, whose name is Babs Seed, was actually getting bullied herself. The Cmc asked him for protection, and then later gave them a little help, in making a prank on her, but when they made up later, Babs Seed joined the Cmc. Now Super 17 was sitting on top of Fluttershy's cottage, while watching Twilight trying to make a magic performance, with some of Fluttershy's animals. The performance will be seen by Princess Celestia, and some Saddle Arabia delegates. Fluttershy looked incredibly worried, about the idea of using her animals, for such a performance. "Don't be scared, little friends. Twilight is wonderful with magic." Fluttershy said, before turning over to Twilight. "Anything happens to them, Twilight, so help me..." Fluttershy said, before being calmed down by Spike. "Aww, don't worry, Fluttershy, Twilight's magic has gotten a lot better since she accidentally crushed me and Applejack with a giant snowball." Spike said, while trying to calm her down. "Of course she's good with magic. Twilight's great with magic. I guess I just don't want my little friends to be scared. Oh, oh, look how scared they are!" Fluttershy said. Super 17 looked at the animals, and they don't look scared at all. In fact, they looked quite happy, to be a part of Twilight's performance. "Does she have to be so paranoid?" Super 17 thought to himself in annoyance. During his stay with Fluttershy, he has seen her, being very overprotective towards her animals. And Super 17 thinks that overprotectiveness can be a weakness. "I promise, Fluttershy. Nothing bad will happen to them." Twilight said, fully confident, that she can pull her trick off. "I know! Stop, stop! They can't take it!" Fluttershy said in a high-pitched voice. Twilight then began to lift the animals with her magic, and made them fly around the sky. This obviously only made Fluttershy more worried, and her teeth chattered. Once it ended, Twilight sat all the animals, safely to the ground. "I wish something exciting will happen." Super 17 said while bored. Then he heard something flying towards them, at incredible speed. It war Rainbow Dash, who has just landed on Twilight, while looking incredibly worried at her. "Twilight! Come quick! It's an emergency!" Rainbow Dash yelled. The two mares and dragon began to run into Ponyvile. While Fluttershy turned over to Super 17. "Hey uhm... Do you wish to come?" Fluttershy asked. "No thanks Flutters. I'm just relaxing here." Super 17 responded, while leaning down on top of her cottage. "Oh... Okay." Fluttershy said, before following her friends. "What is it, that's such an emergency anyway?" Super 17 thought, while leaning down. In Ponyvile, chaos has happened. Rarity was covering herself in a cloak, while Applejack's comforting her, all the actions has been done, by the cloaked mare, who was talking with Twilight. "Well, well, well. If it isn't... Twilight Sparkle." The cloaked mare said, before removing the hood, showing that she's a blue mare, with a light blue mane, and her eyes glowed red, probably due to the amulet around her neck. Everyone gasped at her. "Trixie?" Twilight said in surprise. "What's she doing here?" Spike said, just as surprised as Twilight. "You call that great and powerful?" Rainbow Dash asked. But then Trixie zapped her, and one of Rainbow Dash's wings grew in size, and makes her lose balance. Then, two stupid looking unicorn colts appeared. "Oh! She's Rainbow Wobble, now!" The fat one said. "Yeah! Ha ha ha ha!" The slender one said, while laughing. "Good spell, oh Great and Powerful Trixie!" "You two! Quiet!" Trixie yelled, while shooting a magic ray at them. The two unicorn's horns were now stuck together. "Stop picking on my friends, Trixie!" Twilight yelled to her. "You and I have some unfinished business. My magic's gotten better since I was here last. And I'm going to prove it! Me and you, a magic duel. Winner stays, loser leaves Ponyville forever!" Trixie said, while demanding a few ground rules, for the duel. Twilight however has no interest in such a deal. "Forget it! I'd never make a deal like that!" "Hm. Your choice." Trixie said, while making Spike stuck in a magic ball. He has a hard time breathing inside. He also stretched him out a bit, and used him like a basketball. Then she turned Twilight's library upside down, while making the books fall out, while her pet owl Owlowiscious tries to grab the falling books. "Trixie, put him down. Why are you doing this? "Why? Because you humiliated me! After you showed me up with that Ursa Minor, I became a laughing stock! Everywhere I went I was laughed at and ostracized. I even had to take a job on a rock farm just to earn a living! A rock farm!" "Hey! You're lucky a rock farm would take the likes of you!" Pinkie Pie said. But then Trixie made a computer mouse appear, which removed Pinkie's mouth completely, and then threw it in a trash can, which also disappeared. "Now I want revenge! And I'll just keep casting spells 'til you agree. Well? What do you say?" Trixie asked. Twilight eventually decided to go along, since it's the only way, to save her friends, from the trouble Trixie has done. "Alright, Trixie. Let's duel!" Twilight reluctantly agreed. "Excellent." Trixie said, while undoing all the things she has done... Well almost, since Pinkie Pie's still missing her mouth. Pinkie Pie angrily grunted at Trixie, demanding her mouth back. "If I lose, I won't set hoof in Ponyville again. But if you lose, you're the one banished from this one-horse town!" Trixie said, while making the other Mane 5 gasp in shock. The duel began, and it started by blasting a cart of apples, which was saved by Twilight. Then Trixie shoots pies at Twilight, which she manages to block, by making a Parasprite appear, which ate the upcoming pies, and then made a copy of itself. Twilight then vanished them both away. Trixie then drops a large sheet of snow on Twilight, which was easily melted by Twilight, and then shoots a beam of magic at her opponent, causing a long mustache to grow on her face. Twilight and her friends, laughed in respond, while Trixie made a pair of scissors appear, and cut off the mustache. Then Trixie decided to pull her trump card. "Snips, Snails, step forward!" Trixie demanded, which the two unicorns obeyed. "Wh— what is it, oh Great and P— P— Powerful Trixie?" Snips asked, before getting shot by another magic blast. But this time, much to Twilight's surprise, Snips has become a baby, while Snails has become an old stallion. "An age spell? But... how could you do an age spell? That's only for the highest level unicorns!" Twilight said in shock. "Well, Twilight? Give up?" Trixie confidently asked. Twilight then tried to reverse the age spell, but failed. "Trixie is the highest level unicorn! [laughs] And now it's time for you to leave Ponyville! FOREVER!" Trixie yelled out, while looking at the defeated Twilight. Applejack and Rarity then decided to help her. "That's enough, Trixie!" Applejack said. "You proved your point, but you can't possibly expect Twilight to leave Ponyville!" Rarity said. "You fools! She's already gone!" Trixie said, before blasting Twilight out of Ponyvile. And just before Twilight can run back, Trixie made a huge barrier around Ponyvile. Twilight stared at her worried friends. "It's okay, guys. I'll figure something out. Just take care of each other. And keep an eye on Trixie. There's something strange about her." Twilight said, before running off. Later meanwhile, Super 17 has just jumped away from the cottage top, due to feeling a strange energy, coming from Ponyvile. He then decided to check it out. Once he arrived close to Ponyvile, he saw a barrier covering it. He felt a powerful energy coming from inside, but it was still nowhere close to even 0.1 percent of his power. "I guess i missed all the fun." Super 17 thought in disappointment. He checked inside the barrier from a tree, and saw a blue unicorn, with a cloak, and an amulet around her neck, bossing around all the ponies inside. Normally Super 17 didn't care about the lives of others. But he felt like, something needed to be done. But then, he felt a familiar energy, coming from right beside Ponyvile. He saw a familiar yellow pony in a grey outfit, being reluctantly dragged to the forest, by her animals. Super 17 jumped over to her. "Hey Flutters. What's going on here?" Super 17 asked, while he got Fluttershy's attention. "Super 17! It's good to see you." Fluttershy said, while being sat down, by her animals. "Something awful has happened in Ponyvile!" Fluttershy said, while sounding incredibly worried. "Yeah, i just noticed." Super 17 said. "But anyway, i need to tell Twilight something." Fluttershy said, but was still reluctant in going near that forest. "And i can already guess, that she's inside that forest?" "Yes, but that's no ordinary forest. It's the Everfree forest, the most unnatural forest in Equestria." Fluttershy said. "Oh really? And what's so special about the so called Everfree forest?" Super 17 said unamused. "Well, the plants grow, animals takes care of themselves, and the clouds move." Fluttershy said. "All on their own." She finished her sentence. Super 17 looked unimpressed, since it's the polar opposite of unnatural back in his world. "That's not unnatural." Super 17 thought to himself. He has expected for something more, like it's filled with curses, giant monsters, or something. "But anyway, i need to tell Twilight something important. But i can't go into that creepy forest." Fluttershy said, and was then reluctantly pulled by her animals again. Super 17 then decided to follow, in order to get more analysis on the situation. "Maybe there will be something interesting anyway?" Super 17 thought, while following Fluttershy. Fluttershy and Super 17 then arrived to a hut in the Everfree forest. Fluttershy opened the door, and saw Twilight, and a zebra nearby. "Fluttershy?! Good to see you." Twilight said, while happily hugging her. "It's good to see you too. But who's the friend behind you?" The zebra asked in rhyme, while seeing Super 17. "Okay, Zecora that's Super 17, and Super 17 that's Zecora." Fluttershy said, while introducing them to each other. "Super 17? What does that mysterious name mean?" Zecora asked. "Let's not get too personal." Super 17 replied to her. He then turned his attention to Twilight Sparkle. "And what exactly has happened here?" "Well Super 17, it happened like this..." Twilight said, before explaining the situation to him. She told him about Trixie, and their first encounter. Super 17 has to admit, that this Trixie brags even more than Vegeta. And then continued, by telling him how she returned, and has somehow become even stronger. Super 17 was not very impressed, he thought Trixie was not only a nutcase, but also a cowardly pathetic weakling. Then Fluttershy told Twilight, about Trixie's new amulet, which was now known, as the Alicorn Amulet. She, along with the other Mane 6, has found out the info, while in Twilight's library. "I can't believe I didn't recognize the Alicorn Amulet!" Twilight said. "The more she uses it, the more it will corrupt her!" Fluttershy continued. Twilight was very worried, and had huge doubt, that Trixie can be defeated, while she has the Alicorn Amulet. "But how am I supposed to beat that amulet? My magic's not good enough!" Twilight said, with huge doubt in her voice. But then Super 17 made a few fake coughs. "Uhm... Why don't we use Super 17's help?" Fluttershy suggested. That only made Twilight worry more. "Fluttershy, i know Super 17 is very powerful, but i don't think he can take on Trixie at full power." Twilight said, Super 17 only sighed in respond. "Just let her. She's of course no match for me." Super 17 bragged, while earning a few sighs from Fluttershy and Twilight. "Then you should be careful. For the power of the amulet, can be very painful." Zecora said, while warning Super 17 the dangers, the amulet's powers could do. "In that case. Just bring her on." Super 17 confidently said. "Is your friend, always trying to be so confident?" Zecora whispered to Twilight. "Unfortunately." Twilight responded. She then raised up, since Super 17 could be a really good option for help, right now. "Okay, let's go." Twilight said, before walking out of the hut, with Zecora, Fluttershy, and Super 17 right behind her. They have just arrived to the barrier around Ponyvile, and saw Trixie on a sleigh, which was being pulled by Snips and Snails. Twilight then bonks on the barrier, getting Trixie's attention. "This better not be another false alarm, or the Great and Powerful Trixie will..." Trixie said, before noticing Twilight, Zecora, Fluttershy who has somehow escaped, and a tall humanoid being right beside them. "You! What's the matter, Twilight Sparkle? Not enjoying your exile?" Trixie taunted. "I know about the Alicorn Amulet. I know you cheated." Twilight said accusingly to her. "Cheated? Moi?" Trixie falsely innocently said. "Yeah. And i thought you might wanna see a real opponent." Twilight said. "Oh really? And who may that be?" "That would be me." Super 17 said. Trixie blinked a few times at him, before laughing incredibly loud at him. "You?! An overgrown monkey? Is that the best you can come up with Twilight?" Trixie taunted Twilight again. Super 17 only shrugged at her insult. "I must say, for someone who calls herself great and powerful, i only see a pathetic weakling, who will be beaten by someone, even more powerful." Super 17 said. Trixie began looked more confident at him. "Ha! Nothing's more powerful than the Alicorn Amulet! And nopony's more powerful than the Great and Powerful Trixie!" Trixie said. "She doesn't know it. But i could beat her, without even trying." Super 17 thought. Although he could win against her in an instant if he wanted, he decided to have a little fun first. "Nice barrier you have. How powerful is it?" Super 17 asked about Trixie's barrier. "This barrier, is made by the most powerful unicorn in existents. Me of course." Trixie boasted. But then, Super 17 lightly kicked the barrier, which began to crack, and was shattered in pieces in contact, much to Trixie's surprise. She then glared at him. "What did you do? What did you do to my barrier." Trixie said, while demanding an answer. "Easy, i just kicked at it." Super 17 said. Trixie gritted her teeth at him. "Very well. Meet me in the center of Ponyvile. So everyone can watch your most humiliating defeat!" Trixie said, while beginning to prepare herself, against him. "This won't end well." Twilight said to herself in worry. With Fluttershy nodding. Zecora however wasn't too sure, about the doubt. "Don't be in such a doubt. For the fight is not out." Zecora said, which made the two ponies confused. Trixie and Super 17 were in the center of Ponyvile. The Mane 6, were watching from behind. Pinkie tried to eat popcorns for the fight, but couldn't due to her lack of mouth, much to her dismay. "My money's on 17." Rainbow Dash said. "I hope he wins." Applejack said. "Your first move." Super 17 said, which only made Trixie grin. "With pleasure." Trixie said, before firing a blast of magic at him. Super 17 easily dodged it. "Missed." Super 17 said. Then Trixie shooted another blast of magic at him. He dodged once again. "Missed again." Super 17 said, while grinning at her. "Why are you just dodging? You are supposed to fight. Now fight me, you coward!" Trixie yelled to him. The Mane 6 gave a nervous look, at Trixie's demand. Super 17 smirked at her request. "Okay, but be careful what you wish for." Super 17 said. He quickly teleported right in front of her, and then elbowed her lightly in the stomach. Although Super 17 heavily suppressed his powers, it dealt Trixie lots of damage. The Mane 6, along with the other ponies were very surprised. "Maybe we will see more of Super 17's moves today huh?" Rainbow Dash asked her friends, who simply nodded. Meanwhile Super 17 is merely toying with Trixie, who was getting more, and more frustrated. "That's it! Let's see how fast you are, when i turn you into an infant!" Trixie yelled out, while shooting her age spell on Super 17. The age spell hit him, much to the other ponies shock. "Oh no! If Super 17 becomes an infant. There is no doubt Trixie will win." Twilight said in worry. But then to everypony's surprise, Super 17 stood there, completely unchanged. Trixie jaw dropped in respond. "How... How can you be immune to the age spell?! It was supposed to turn you into an infant!" Trixie yelled out in shock. Super 17 merely shrugged at her. "I'm an android. And androids don't age, with simple spells." Super 17 said, which made the ponies even more surprised and shocked. "What?! Is he immortal, or something?" Rarity said in deep shock. "Well, i think our little fun is over." Super 17 said, before quickly teleporting in front of Trixie, and then kicked her lightly in the neck. Trixie got up, with only a few injuries. "Hah! You think a little kick could harm the great and powerful Trixie?" Trixie boasted. Super 17 however smirked at her. "No. But it did kick your little toy away." Super 17 said, which only made Trixie confused. "Toy? What to..." Trixie said, before noticing her amulet is gone. "My amulet?! Where is it?!" She yelled out, before noticing the Alicorn Amulet on the ground. She was about to snatch it back, but was too late, since Rainbow Dash quickly snatched it. "Sorry. This is going back into hiding where it belongs." Rainbow Dash said, before dropping the amulet, in a box, held by Zecora. She then flew over to Super 17. "Thanks for the help 17." Rainbow Dash said, while fist bumping with him. "No biggie. Although it was just a waste of time." He said, making the other Mane 6 sigh. Trixie, now out of the corruption, walked over to Twilight. "I treated you and your friends so horribly when I was wearing that Alicorn Amulet. I just couldn't control myself. You can forgive me, can't you?" Trixie asked, while giving apologetic eyes toward them. "Hmmm. Sure." Twilight simply said, while forgiving Trixie. "Oh, good. Don't you think the Great and Apologetic Trixie is the most magnificent humble pony you've ever seen?!" Trixie yelled out, before running off, while accidentally falling down, and then continued her run. "Well, now that that's over, i think we can prepare the performance." Twilight said, which made the others except Fluttershy nod in agreement. It was night, under the starry night sky. And Twilight made her performance, in front of Princess Celestia, and the Saddle Arabia delegates. Fluttershy couldn't look, while Spike comforted her. Super 17 watched the show, from the above smiling. "This was actually fun today. Let's see what happens next." Super 17 said. > Chapter 8 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- More days has passed, since Super 17 effortlessly defeated Trixie. Which included going on a little camp trip, with Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, and the Cmc, which made Scootaloo and Rainbow bond some more. Then Rainbow entered something called a Wonderbolt Academy, and got into a rivalry, with another fast pegasus names Lightning Dust, who reminded him of Vegeta. Applejack has also decided to open a big apple family reunion, which was one of the few things Super 17, wasn't involved in. Then Spike was at Applejack's service, for saving his life from the Timberwolves. Super 17 eventually helped Spike fend off, against a bigger Timberwolf, while making Applejack and Spike even. Now today, the Mane 6, Spike, and Super 17, has been called by Princess Celestia for a meeting, in a field just outside of Ponyvile, except Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Fluttershy hasn't arrived yet. Super 17 didn't show much interest in the meeting, but came anyway, since Celestia probably called him here as well for a reason. Rarity was spraying herself with perfume, Rainbow Dash tried to ignore the perfume, while Twilight and Spike were waiting for Celestia. Then Pinkie Pie arrived to the scene. "I love it when Princess Celestia comes to Ponyville! I got my hooves shined just like Rarity for the occasion. Ya like?" Pinkie Pie asked Rarity. "I certainly do!" Rarity replied to Pinkie Pie. Twilight in the meantime began to get more impatient. "I'm surprised she's not here yet." Twilight said impatiently. "I wonder why is it taking so long?" Spike added. "And i wonder, why i'm a part of the meeting." Super 17 thought to himself. He also eavesdropped Twilight a bit, hearing her talk about an important visitor arriving. Then after waiting a bit more, and hearing the other ponies talk meanwhile, he finally saw Princess Celestia finally arrive, to the meeting. "About time." Super 17 thought. He then noticed a few guards behind her, dragging a weird statue, which looked like a combination, of many different animals. Spike gasped at the statue. "Maybe the visitor has a deer antler, a goat leg, a bat wing, and a snake tail!" Spike said in fear. "Yeah, right. That's Discord." Twilight said, who has not noticed the statue yet. "Discord? That's a weird name." Super 17 thought. He then saw the other ponies gasp at the statue in shock. "He must have apparently done some horrible things. Since they have so much fear for him." He thought, while Twilight begins to walk over to Princess Celestia. "With all due respect, Princess Celestia, how could you bring Discord here?!" Twilight almost yelled to her teacher, before correcting herself with a cough. "Your majesty." "I'm fully aware that the last time Discord was here, he created serious havoc." Celestia said. "If by "serious havoc" you mean "turning Ponyville into the chaos capital of the world..." Rainbow Dash said. "And tricking us all into being the opposite of our true selves..." Rarity continued. "And making yummy delicious chocolate milk rain all over the place without a single dollop of whipped cream to go with it anywhere in sight! Not a single dollop!" Pinkie Pie further continued the description about the statue. Super 17 listened closely, to the things this Discord has done around here. Super 17 wasn't that impressed, since he knew other villains, who has done far worse, than what Discord could ever do. He then glanced over to Rainbow Dash. "Hey Rainbow. Who is this Discord?" Super 17 asked her, who in respond, floated over to him. "Discord, is the spirit of chaos and disharmony, and one of the worst, and most powerful villains, ever existed in Equestria." Rainbow Dash said, while telling him about Discord. "Spirit of chaos and disharmony? Sounds original." Super 17 sarcastically said. "Yes, I understand. But I have use for Discord's magic if it can be reformed to serve good instead of evil. This is why I've brought Discord here, because I believe that you are the ponies who can help him do just that." Celestia calmly said. But that didn't help the ponies afraid expressions much. "This will never work! This is a disaster! How will we ever control him?! We're doomed!" Spike said, who was no doubt paranoid, about the idea of releasing him. "Need I remind you that you are the ponies who turned him back into stone like this in the first place?" Celestia said. She then showed the box, with the elements of harmony. "Besides, we also have a strong ally with us. Somewhat." Celestia said, while glancing at Super 17, and muttered her last words. The ponies calmed down a bit, since they not only have the elements of harmony, but also Super 17 with them. "I suppose we can just use the Elements of Harmony against him again if it gets out of hand." Twilight said, who decided to go along with Celestia's plan, in somehow reforming Discord. "Or i could just best him, with my flash bomber." Super 17 suggested with a grin, which made the others sigh at him. "Super 17, i know you are indeed very powerful. But you shouldn't underestimate Discord's power. He can make almost anything happen, with his power to warp reality." Celestia said, while warning him about Discord. But Super 17 shrugged at it, since he knew about a monster, named Janemba in hell. He could also warp reality, which were much stronger than Discord's. "But anyway, where is Fluttershy? I believe she may know best how to begin reforming Discord." Celestia continued, while looking for Fluttershy. "Fluttershy? Really?" Rainbow Dash deadpanned. Later that day, Applejack and Fluttershy has arrived, where Fluttershy has helped Applejack settle a problem, between her, and an angry beaver. Fluttershy is not really sure, about the idea, that she can pull it off. "I realize that this is a tall order, but I wouldn't ask if I weren't confident you could get him to use magic obediently of his own free will." "And... you really think I'll know best how to do that?" " I do." Celestia said, while smiling to Fluttershy, which made her blush a bit. "Now, I must return to Canterlot for Equestria's royal summit. You may release Discord when ready." Celestia said, before returning to her carriage, and floated off with her guards. The Mane 6 then took on their respective Element of Harmony, which Super 17 recognized, as the same weapon, they not only tried on him, but also a blast from it he absorbed the first time he met them. The Mane 6 then surrounded Discord's statue. "Okay, ponies, guess it's time to get started. Let's just hope this releasing spell works." Twilight said, while preparing to use the Elements of Harmony. She charged her horn, and all the elements activated, forming a rainbow between them. "Let's see what happens." Super 17 thought, while Spike hides behind his leg. The rainbow then made contact with the statue, which made the statue a lot more organic than before. The statue's was now brown, his right lion turned yellow, his left bird claw became yellow too, his horns became normal, and a scream came out, until it stopped a few seconds later. The statue known as Discord, was now free, and started by moving his body a bit. "Oh! Ooh! Ooooh! Well, it's about time somepony got me out of that prison block. What a relief!" Discord said, before snapping his fingers, and made a squirrel nearby, more large and muscular. The Mane 6 gasped, while Super 17 observed Discord. "What do you think you're doing?!" Twilight asked. "Nnnnnnnnngh– Why, stretching, of course. When you're a creature of chaos, stone bodysuits aren't your typical go-to fashion choice." Discord said, while stretching his body. He then snapped his fingers, and made a bunny nearby bigger and uglier. "Make that bunny cute again! Now!" Pinkie Pie demanded, which Discord obviously ignored. "Oh... He's adorable the way he is." Discord chuckled. He then blew a raspberry at them. "You know what else is adorable? You ponies truly believe that you can reform me, and that you're putting your faith in this one here to make it happen. Makes me wanna pinch your little horsey cheeks..." Discord said, which shocked the Mane 6, due to knowing their intentions. "How'd you know about that?!" Twilight said curiously. "Being turned to stone doesn't keep me from hearing every word Celestia says. Although I admit it makes rolling my eyes a challenge." Discord said, before he notices Super 17 nearby, and teleported right in front of him. "Why, i haven't seen you before. Who may you be, my friend?" Discord said, while eyeballing Super 17... Literally. Super 17 however shrugged at him. "Just being here for reasons. And by the way, i'm not your friend." Super 17 said openly. He could sense Discord's power level, which was much higher than even Princess Celestia. But he would be no match against his sister, Android 18, without even using her full power, or fight seriously. "Now that's harsh." Discord said. "Do you know, that you're actually talking to the spirit of chaos and disharmony?" "And do you know that i actually don't care?" Super 17 countered, which made Discord a bit surprised, that he wasn't afraid of his mighty powers at all. "Oohhh. We have a brave one here today. Are you actually hiding your fears from me? Or do you wish to challenge me?" Discord said, confident that he could take him on. The Mane 6 looked worried at their talk. "No." Super 17 said, which made Discord give a smirk to him. "I thought so." Discord said, thinking that he has won that little fight. "For if i challenged you, you would have been beaten in an instant." Super 17 thought to himself. Then Discord turned back to the Mane 6. "Well, unless you want us to turn you back to stone, you'll zap those animals back the way they were, pronto!" Twilight demanded Discord. "Oh, you wouldn't dare turn me back to stone and risk disappointing your precious princess." "Try us, "Dip-cord"!" Rainbow Dash insulted him. "You think you can treat poor defenseless animals like that and get away with it?!" Fluttershy said, while beginning to sound more braver than usual, much to Super 17's slight surprise. Fluttershy then stared deeply at Discord's eyes, which seemed to work at first, but then Discord revealed that he has just faked it, much to the others(except Super 17's) surprise. "If it turns out we need to use our elements against you, I'm sure we can convince Princess Celestia it was for a good reason!" "Mmm... I suppose that's correct." Discord said, before snapping his fingers, which turned all the animals back to normal, much to their delight. "Oopsie! Well, it looks like I know where I'll be crashing while I'm being "reformed..." Discord said, before teleporting beside Fluttershy, and hugged her. "With you, Fluttershy." "Oh, dear." Was all Fluttershy said, before walking off with Discord, to her cottage. The others now looked at Super 17. "Super 17. Why didn't you just punch him, when he teleported right in front of you?" Rainbow Dash asked him. "Because he wouldn't have survived it." Super 17 joked. Then Twilight looked at him, with a serious expression. "Look, if Discord goes too far, you will distract him, long enough for us, to turn him to stone." Twilight said to him, without Discord listening. "Maybe, unless this Discord, proves to be a funny opponent." Super 17 said arrogantly. "Look Super 17, like Princess Celestia said. You shouldn't underestimate Discord's powers. You have no idea what he will do to you." Twilight warned him. Super 17 however dismissed the threat, by merely snorting. "That just makes it more interesting." Was all Super 17 said, much to Twilight's annoyance. They then followed Discord and Fluttershy, back to her cottage. The Mane 6, Discord, and Super 17 were all in Fluttershy's cottage. Discord was making it quite difficult, for both Fluttershy and Angel. "He may be horrible, but that doesn't mean we have to act the same way. We should at least try to be hospitable." Fluttershy said. She was currently cleaning up the mess, Discord made in his stay. "You don't mind giving up your favorite spot on the couch, do you, Angel Bunny?" Angel shook his head, clearly minding that Discord is sitting on his favorite spot on the couch. Super 17 watches poor Angel, trying to pull Discord away from his couch, but to no avail since Discord's not moving anywhere. "Oh, I'm sorry about Angel. Are you alright?" "Oh, yes. Thank you, Fluttershy, for your concern. If only your pony friends could be as considerate..." "Don't listen to him, Fluttershy! He's just trying to drive a wedge between us like he always does." Rainbow Dash said, who doesn't trust Discord one bit. "Now why in the world would I ever try to do a thing like that?" Discord asked innocently "So we can't unite and use the Elements of Harmony against you, that's why!" Rainbow Dash replied. "So those Elements of Harmony, can only be used when all 6 of you are united?" Super 17 asked, since he doesn't know much about them. Other than that he absorbed one blast from it. Twilight leaned over to him, while the others were talking to Discord. "That's correct 17. The Elements of Harmony are run by 6 elements of friendship. Laughter, Honesty, Loyalty, Kindness, Generosity, and Magic. If only one is missing, they are useless." Twilight whispered to 17. Super 17 was slightly confused. Is it really necessary to use 6 users, instead of just 1, for such a powerful weapon? He looked back to the Mane 6, who were still continuing the conversation. A few moments later, Fluttershy's friends decided to walk outside. "You sure you're okay with this?" Twilight asked. "I know it's not gonna be easy, but Princess Celestia's counting on me. And... I think I actually know what to do." Fluttershy replied, who wanted to complete her task, in reforming Discord. "You do?" Twilight asked in surprise. While Angel is still trying to get Discord away from the couch. " I think the key is to befriend him. Being kind to him and letting him be my house guest is probably the best way to do that." "And you really think that'll work?" "I think it's worth a try." "Okay, but if you need us, all you need to do is whisper "help", and we'll be back here with our elements. Plus Super 17 will support you... Right?" Twilight said, while taking a glance at Super 17, who was sitting on a chair nearby. "Yeah yeah." Super 17 said uninterested. Twilight ignored it and turned to Discord, who was drinking tee with Angel. "So watch that goat-legged step of yours, pal!" "Wh-what?! Look at me! I'm practically reformed already." Discord innocently said. The others then walked out of the door, and began to discuss about the situation. "She's really alright with him staying there?" "That's what she said." " Personally, I think we should come up with a backup plan, in case this whole "befriending" business doesn't work out. And i suggest we make Super 17 put him in place." Rainbow Dash said. "Rainbow Dash is right. This is Discord we are talking about, girls. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have another trick up our sleeves. But i don't think Super 17 can beat him. Sorry Rainbow." Rarity said, a little doubtful that Super 17 can actually beat Discord. "Why not? 17 defeated Trixie before." Pinkie Pie protested. "That's true. But this is Discord, and he is much more powerful than Trixie ever were. We need something more sneaky and unpredictable." Twilight replied. But then Twilight got an idea. "And I think I know just the trick." Twilight said, before beginning to walk back to the library. Meanwhile inside Fluttershy's cottage. Discord was giving both Fluttershy and Angel even more problems. First he hated some random paper, then he scared Angel by turning into a carrot. And then made her cottage spin around in circles. Super 17 however barely moved the spot. Discord looked at Super 17. "Now tell me young stallion. Why do you live with Fluttershy? Are you here to be reformed as well?" Discord asked him. "No. I just needed a place to stay." Super 17 responded. Although he didn't actually need a place to stay. "Really? But anyway, i haven't gotten a good introduction on you yet. Please tell me your name." Discord asked him. Fluttershy looked slightly worried, that Discord wanted to talk to Super 17. But that made sense, since Discord can be quite curious sometimes, and doesn't know much about Super 17 yet. "It's Super 17." "Super 17? Is that a super hero name or something?" Discord asked, while trying to softly taunt him. Super 17 however ignored him, and turned away. "My name is none of your business." Super 17 said in annoyance. Even through he has lived there for days, he can still be slightly distrustful with others, except for the Mane 6 especially Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, and the princesses. "How rude. Do you ever have any good manners?" Discord asked irritated. Then he teleported back to Fluttershy. "Oh well. You on the other hand is very kind, my dear Fluttershy. I always knew that you were the understanding one, not like those nasty friends of yours. Including your monkey friend there." Discord said while pointing at Super 17, which earned him a gasp from Fluttershy. "My friends aren't nasty! And you shouldn't insult Super 17." "Well, of course you'd say that. It just goes to show how understanding you truly are. You know, I think Princess Celestia is right when she singled you out as the one who could reform me. You're off to such a good start, I'm seriously considering actually being reformed." Discord said. The small conversation continued, until they few knocks on the door. It was Twilight. "Fluttershy! Fluttershy, can you hear me?" "Goodness! I hear Twilight!" "Fluttershy, what's going on? Are you okay?!" While they talked, Super 17 felt a few changes around the area. "That's strange. I can feel that the things around here, are beginning to change. I don't know, if this Discord is behind this. I better keep an eye on him." Super 17 thought, while looking at both Discord who was laying on the bench, and Twilight and Fluttershy who were finishing their talk. He heard them talk about, if Discord can truly be trusted. He also heard something about, Twilight's reform spells has disappeared. Super 17 remembered Discord eating some paper a few moments ago, which was probably the reform spells. " If I'm going to be his friend, I have to start by giving him the benefit of the doubt! Tell you what. Bring all the ponies over for a dinner party this evening, and I'll bet his manners will have really improved by then. I'll even get him to put the cottage back on the ground first." "Alright. Dinner it is." Twilight sighed. A few moments later, the rest of the Mane 6 were returning to Fluttershy's cottage, to have dinner with her and Discord. "Ugh, I can't believe we're having a dinner party with Discord!" "This evening is sure to be a disaster. Glad I didn't bother wearing my fanciest outfit." "Fluttershy thinks this is the way to reform Discord and asked us to give it a chance." Twilight said. Then the door to Fluttershy's cottage opened. Revealing Discord in a waiter outfit. "Oh, our pony guests! We're so delighted that you've come. Please, do come in." Discord greeted with a fancy accent. While a red carpet rolled over. The ponies looked inside the cottage, and saw it was much different than before. It's slightly twirled, is decorated lavishly, with a large dinner table, cushions, and a chandelier. Super 17 was already sitting on the table. "See what a beautiful job he did helping? Discord set the entire table himself. I'm so proud." Fluttershy happily commented Discord. "Yeah. Congratulations Discord. You earned a trophy." Super 17 said sarcastically while rolling his eyes. Discord also offered to take their hats, which were the Elements of Harmony. The Mane 5 declined. "Hang on to your elements, girls. It's gonna be a bumpy night." Twilight warned her friends. They eventually sat on to the table. Super 17 sat beside Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie. While Fluttershy was discussing with the others, Rainbow Dash was talking to Super 17. "So how was it to have Discord here?" Rainbow Dash asked 17. "He is quite annoying. And his powers aren't that impressive." Super 17 replied. Then Pinkie Pie joined the conversation. "Be careful. Discord haven't shown what he can really do yet. Although i found his chocolate rain delicious." Pinkie Pie said. Remembering the good times, where she drinked some chocolate milk, from one of Discord's cotton candy clouds. "Currently i'm barely impressed. I have known others who were much worse." Super 17 said, much to both Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash's surprise. Super 17 shows no fear at the spirit of chaos, and even mentioning that he knows others who were much worse than Discord. But before they can ask more, a gravy boat appeared beside Pinkie Pie. "Oh, what a cute little gravy boat you are! Yes you are! Yes you are!" "That's one creepy little gravy boat if you ask me." "Oh, come on now, Dashie. You're not even giving this a chance. Like Super 17 for an example. He has given him a chance right?" Fluttershy said, while glancing at Super 17. "Maybe." Was all Super 17 said. Super 17 hardly trusts Discord, since he has felt strange energies outside. The talk about the reformation of Discord continued. Everyone except Super 17(due to just dodging the upcoming soup) got sprayed by soup. Rainbow Dash eventually stopped it from spraying anymore. "Fluttershy! Can't you see what he's doing? He's playing innocent with you so you'll never agree to use the Elements of Harmony against him!" Rainbow pleaded. "Oh, well, that's a bit harsh, isn't it?" "You see what I'm saying, right, Fluttershy?" Rainbow said, before noticing that Fluttershy's not completely agreeing with her. "Fluttershy!" "You know what I see? I see that Discord's far from perfect, but I also see none of you giving him a chance!" "What's gotten into you?! Why do you keep cutting him so much slack?" "Because that's what friends do." "We're friends?" "Why, of course! I can't remember my house ever being this lively before you came along." "Oh... Well, I've... never really had a friend before." Fluttershy said. Then Angel came out of the window. Angel panicked to them. "Now is not a good time, Angel. We're having a dinner party." Fluttershy said. But Angel kept panicking. "Hold up! I-I think he's tryin' to tell us somethin'!" Applejack said suspiciously. Angel did many different things, which they hardly understood. But when he showed the apple, the Mane 6 quickly understood his meaning. "Oh, oh, oh! Sweet Apple Acres?" "Flooding at Sweet Apple Acres! And we all know who's behind that now, don't we?!" Rainbow Dash said accusingly to Discord. "Who, me?" "Oh, give it a rest! What do you think of your "friend" now, Fluttershy?" Rainbow Dash said, while all the Mane 5 except Fluttershy and Discord left. Super 17 decided to follow them. "See ya later Shy." Super 17 said. He then left the door. The Mane 6, Spike, and Super 17 has arrived to Sweet Apple Acres. And just as predicted, it was completely flooded with water. The rest of Applejack's family were floating on apple baskets. "'I've never seen the floodin' this bad! They've built dams 'round here before, but never like this! " "So that's the energy i felt outside. I knew something was a little fishy." Super 17 said, which earned the surprise from the ponies. "Wait. You knew all the time, that something fishy has been going on?!" Twilight asked in surprise. "Why didn't you just say so?" "Because it would be fun to see your faces." Super 17 grinned, while earning a slight glare from Twilight and Applejack. "You see Discord's behind all this, right?" Rainbow Dash said. "Oh, of course I do! Do you all think I'm a silly, gullible fool?" Fluttershy asked in annoyance. "Um, well..." "Uh... uh, no, not exactly..." "A little." Super 17 said honestly, which made the others glare at him a little. "I've just been trying to gain his friendship any way I can, so he'd come to trust and listen to me!" Fluttershy said in plead. Then Discord arrived, while water skiing. "Hey there, Fluttershy, you want a turn? The water's great!" Discord said. "Time to see if it worked." Fluttershy said, while flying towards Discord. "Fluttershy, oh, there you are. A sight for sore eyes." "As you can see, there's a big mess down here at Sweet Apple Acres." "Oh, yes. Awful business, that. Mm." "It is awful. This is Applejack's home, and it's being destroyed by innocent creatures who would never be acting this way if it weren't for your reckless behavior. You need to fix this." Fluttershy pleaded Discord. "Oh, yes, very well, I will fix it. I only ask one thing in return." "Yes?" "I ask that you never use your Element of Harmony against me. As a sign of our friendship." Discord said, which made the other Mane 5 shocked. Fluttershy responded by immediately taking off her Element of Kindness. "I will never use my Element of Harmony against you." Fluttershy swore, much to the other ponies shock. "I have a bad feeling about this." Super 17 thought, a little unsure what will happen next. "Excellent!" Discord said with a smirk. He snapped then his fingers. But to the ponies shock, instead of the farm being turned to norma, it has instead been turned into an ice area. "There, much better! I do prefer ice skating to water skiing! Don't you?" "Discord! That's not fixing it! Why, I oughta..." Fluttershy said in slight anger. Now Super 17 had enough of Discord's humor, and finally decided to end this chaos. "Allow me Shy." Super 17 said, while walking to the skating Discord. "What... What are you doing?" Fluttershy asked in surprise. "I'm putting an end, to this chaos spirit." Super 17 said, much to all the ponies shock. "Are you crazy?! Do you actually think that you can take on the spirit of chaos and disharmony?!" Twilight yelled in shock. The others were also shocked at Super 17's decision in possibly fighting Discord. "Dude. Allow us to do it. We have the Elements of Harmony!" Rainbow Dash pleaded to him in concern. "I have faced worse." Super 17 replied. Then he stood towards the still skating spirit of chaos. "What do you want?" Discord said uninterested. "Please leave, i'm busy with my work." "If someone's leaving, it's gonna be you." Super 17 simply said, much to Discord's surprise. Then Discord laughed at Super 17's little warning. "Ho ho ho ho! And who will stop me? You? No one has beaten a Draconequus before." Discord arrogantly said. "Then that's a record, that will be broken today." Super 17 said with a grin. "And how will you do it? Punch me up in the sky, like i'm some sort of..." Discord said sarcastically, before getting punched up in the air by Super 17. The ponies looked shocked, that Super 17 actually punched Discord. "Okay... That was awesome." Rainbow Dash said in surprise. Then Discord teleported back to Super 17. Now he looked quite angry. "Shy may have promised not to hurt you anymore. But i didn't." Super 17 said. "I gotta admit, that you are actually stronger than you look. But that won't help you." Discord said. He then made some cotton candy clouds appear, and send them directly towards Super 17. They exploded once they hit Super 17. "Now. Let that be a warning to those who opposes the..." Discord said, before his jaw dropped, seeing that Super 17 was completely unharmed by Discord's attack. "What?! It was supposed to damage you." "Was it? Gee i didn't know. Maybe i forgot to feel it." Super 17 taunted him. Discord easily fell for it. "You dare mock me?! Then take this!" Discord yelled. He created a large rock, and send it hurling towards him. But to everypony's surprise, the rock fell apart when it just made contact with him. "My turn." Super 17 said. He quickly teleported in front of Discord, and lightly punched him in the gut. Although Super 17 heavily suppressed his power, the punch gave Discord heavy injuries. Discord was send flying to a rock, and crashed there. Discord was rubbing his stomach in pain. "That hurt... That really hurt!!!" Discord yelled. He then teleported in front of Super 17, and started to both punch and kick him numerous of times. The ponies covered their eyes. "Poor Super 17. I hope he's" Pinkie said, but when she looked toward them, she actually jaw dropped. "... Alright?" To the ponies surprise once more, Super 17 was easily blocking Discord's punches and kicks, with only his feet, while having his arms behind his back. While Discord actually struggled to hit him, Super 17 was barely trying to block his attacks. "Come on Discord. Impress me. I'm not even using my hands." Super 17 taunted. That made Discord even more angry. "Oh yeah! Then let's see what happens, when i turn you into your opposite self!" Discord yelled, he then quickly teleported in front of Discord's face, and tapped 17's forehead. The Mane 6 were shocked at what Discord's doing. He's trying to turn Super 17 into something else. "Oh no! I don't wanna imagine if Super 17 gets turned into... I don't know, a coward or something. We gotta help him!" Rainbow Dash yelled in shock. While the others were nodding in agreement, Fluttershy was reluctant to help. "Come on Shy. Let's blast Discord back to stone!" Rainbow Dash yelled. But Fluttershy was still reluctant. "I'm sorry, i can't. I promised not to use my element on him." Fluttershy pleaded. Although Discord has used her the whole time, Fluttershy was still keeping her promise. "But Fluttershy. If we don't help 17, we might lose him." Rainbow Dash yelled in concern. She has actually grown to see Super 17 as a good friend. The others not as much, but still saw Super 17 as a good friend, despite his arrogance and confidence. "Girls! Look!" Pinkie Pie yelled, which made the ponies look back to Discord and Super 17. And to their shock, Discord kept tapping Super 17's forehead. Discord was incredibly confused. Why doesn't his chaos magic work on him? "Why is it not working? Why is my chaos magic not working?!" "I don't know, you are the spirit of chaos. Or are you just the prototype?" Super 17 grinned while taunting Discord. Super 17 then kicked Discord in the head instantly, which was so fast that not even Discord saw it coming. Discord was sent flying once more, but before Discord could hit a nearby tree or something, he was caught by Super 17, who was now taking a grip on his throat. "Do you know a game called "basketball"?" Super 17 asked amusingly. Discord weakly shook his head. "I thought so. You just need to throw a ball, just like i'm throwing you." Super 17 said, while throwing Discord toward the ice field. Discord hit the snow, and looked heavily injured. "How powerful is Super 17?" Rarity yelled in shock. The ponies were now shocked, that Super 17 could even defeat Discord, without even trying. Super 17 then teleported towards Discord, who was actually for the first time, cowering in fear. "Stop! Please stop! I surrender!" Discord pleaded. But 17 barely moved by his plead, held him in the throat again. "Why? I thought you liked to play. Guess i was wrong. Anyway, i think you have caused enough trouble here in Equestria." Super 17 said, while charging a ki blast from his hand. Fluttershy gasped, and quickly flew towards Super 17 and a badly injured Discord. "No. Super 17, please stop." Fluttershy pleaded, while floating between Discord and 17, who stopped charging his ki blast. "Look Super 17, i know Discord has done bad things, but destroying him will make you no better than him. So please, let him go. For me." Fluttershy said pleadingly. Super 17 felt his emotions run on him again, and dropped Discord to the ground. "Fl... Fluttershy. Why are you protecting me? "Because Discord, like i said that's what a good friend does." "A... Good... Friend?" Discord said in surprise. He thinks a little, and is surprised how friendship actually works. And to everypony's surprise, Discord snapped his fingers, which made everything completely back to normal. "Fluttershy... I'm sorry." Discord apologized, which surprised the Mane 6 even more. "It's alright, i forgive you. You apologize too, right Super 17." "Fine. Sorry for beating you up." Super 17 said uninterested. Later that day, Princess Celestia has returned, with Discord fully recovered. Princess Celestia was actually surprised that Super 17 could even best the likes of Discord, but eventually let it slide for now, to congratulate the Mane 6. "Yes, Princess, I'm ready to use my magic for good instead of evil. Most of the time." Discord said, which made the Mane 6 a little uneasy, while Super 17 was glaring at him. "Congratulations on your success, ponies. I definitely sense a big change in Discord." Celestia said, before leaning over to Twilight. "I'll leave the Elements of Harmony with you, Twilight. Just in case." Celestia whispered to her student. That little sentence made Discord uneasy. "That. Or we can make Super 17 watch him." Rainbow Dash said mischievously. That made Discord quickly hide behind Fluttershy in fear, while glancing toward Super 17, who was smirking at him. "I commend you for being quite good... A good punching bag." Super 17 joked. Rainbow Dash Applejack and Pinkie Pie couldn't hold their laughter back, and cracked up at his joke. "You were right when you said Fluttershy would be the one to find the way to reform Discord. By treating Discord as a friend, she got him to realize that friendship was actually important to him. And something that, once he had, he didn't want to lose." Twilight said, seeing Fluttershy as one of the best reformers, who has ever existed. "Go on. Say it..." "Alright." Discord groaned. "Friendship is magic." Discord quickly said, while getting a smile from Fluttershy. "See? He can be a real sweetheart once you get to know him." Fluttershy said. Then Discord teleported away(probably for Fluttershy's cottage). Then Princess Celestia glanced to Super 17. "By the way 17, there is also another reason why i have arrived here." "Why?" "The memory spell for you... Is complete." > Memories part 1: Android 17 18 and Dr. Gero > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Super 17 stood with the Mane 6, and Princess Celestia. He has just beaten the living hell out of Discord, without even using a slight bit of his powers. Discord was also much weaker than the villains in hell. But Discord eventually started his reformation anyway, due to Fluttershy protecting him from being killed by Super 17. And now Princess Celestia has finished her memory spell. The Mane 6 were surprised, while Super 17 was a little skeptical. "Memory spell? What do you mean?" Super 17 asked in confusion. The ponies has never mentioned a memory spell for him. "Right, i'm sorry for not telling you." Celestia apologized to the confused android. "But we need to see your memories. In order to find out if you're a truly trustworthy." "But Princess Celestia." Rainbow Dash protested. "Why don't we just ask Super 17 more about his past? He has stayed here for quite some time." "I agree with Dashie. Super 17 is not a big meanie pants." Pinkie said in agreement. "Right?" Princess Celestia nodded to her subjects in acknowledgement. "I understand your concern for him my little ponies." Princess Celestia nodded. "What about you Super 17? Do you want to tell us your past? Or do you want us to see them ourselves?" Celestia asked with a warm voice. Super 17 was in his thoughts. He could tell them, but they would probably be too complicated to describe. Not to mention that the ponies would hardly believe it. "Very well Princess. You can all see my memories." Super 17 nodded, much to the Mane 6's surprise. "Really? You accept so quickly?" Twilight asked in surprise. "Yeah. My past is very complicated. So it's better showing you, than telling it." Super 17 explained. The ponies were surprised at Super 17's explanation. "Complicated? Why is your story complicated?" Rarity asked. "Like i said, it's better showing than telling you." Super 17 replied to her. Celestia nodded to him in acknowledgement. "Then we shall prepare the memory spell. Please follow me." Princess Celestia requested. Princess Celestia then walked away, with the ponies and Super 17 following. "Super 17 must have had a harsh past. Maybe that's why he doesn't want to share it much until now." Fluttershy thought in concern for him. The ponies and the android arrived to the town hall, where they saw Princess Luna standing on the center. "GREETINGS SISTER, ELEMENTS OF HARMONY, AND SUPER 17!" Princess Luna greeted them with her royal canterlot voice. The ponies except Princess Celestia almost lost their balance, along with Applejack's hat flying off, due to Luna's loud greeting. "Apologies my little ponies. We really have a habit of using our royal canterlot voice." Princess Luna apologized while slightly blushing in embarrassment. "It's alright Luna." Applejack replied, while placing her hat back on her head. "Luna my dear sister. Did you remember to ask the ponies, to please not disturb us?" Princess Celestia asked her sister, with Luna nodded to her. "We have. Just like i asked them, for us to use the town's hall." She said. Princess Celestia smiled to her sister. Princess Luna then glanced at Super 17. "So Super 17. Thou has agreed to let us see your backstory?" She asked him. "Yeah. My story can be too difficult to describe by myself. And i can't show you a vision about it either." Super 17 replied. "So Princess Celestia. How will you perform the spell?" Twilight asked her mentor. "First my faithful student, i will create a magical ring on the center." Celestia said, while charging her horn. On the town hall's floor a white large circle appeared in the center. "Super 17. Please stand on the center of the magical ring." Princess Celestia requested Super 17. "Fine." Super 17 simply replied. He walked over to the ring, until he now stood inside and in the center of the ring. "Now what?" "Now me, my sister, and my little ponies will circle around the ring." She said. Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and the Mane 6 walked to the ring, and surrounded Super 17. "Now everypony who now stands close to the magical ring, can enter with the spell." "Nice thinking Princess Celestia." Twilight complimented her mentor. "Wow, when you plan ahead, you really plan ahead." "Thank you Twilight. Now, let the memory spell begin." Princess Celestia informed. Her horn along with Luna's began to glow, and a white light began to surround everyone close to the ring. "This is gonna be awesome. I bet Super 17 must have had an awesome background." Rainbow Dash thought in excitement, before being engulfed by the white magical light. After the light ended, all the ponies along with Super 17 is surrounded by a white magical aura, while floating in the air. The Mane 6 and the princesses open their eyes, and saw their whereabouts. They appeared to be in some sort of void, like it was always night outside. "Where are we Princess Celestia?" Twilight asked her mentor. "It appears to be Super 17's mind." Princess Celestia replied. "That's strange. When i enter other ponies dreams, their minds never looked like a giant void." Princess Luna said suspiciously. "And speaking of Super 17. Where is he?" Rainbow Dash asked. The ponies looked around, and saw that Super 17 was nowhere to be found around there. "We're inside his mind remember?" Princess Celestia reminded them. "When somepony enters other ponies minds, the host won't appear right beside us." "I'm afraid to say how wrong you are your majesty." A familiar voice said. The ponies jumped up in surprise, and saw Super 17 appear right in front of them, like he has just teleported there or something. "Super 17?! How did you just appear? Usually the host's consciousness will only be asleep when we enter other ponies minds." Princess Celestia said in surprise. "One of the reasons is due to not being a pony. And second is that i have many powers beyond what you seem to know." Super 17 responded. The ponies were surprised at his many surprising abilities. "But at least you will have a guide when you travel around my memories." "That's a good point." Pinkie Pie cheerfully said. "Really? That doesn't sound like a bad idea." Twilight said with a smile. "Sounds great." Rainbow Dash cheered. "Well ay reckon that can work just fine." Applejack nodded. "Me... Too." Fluttershy shyly muttered. "Well a guide sounds like a marvelous suggestion darling." Rarity said while showing off her mane as usual. "Good. But i must warn you, that my memories can be a little shocking for you." Super 17 warned them. That made the ponies slightly confused at his warning. "Shocking? How shocking is your memories for you?" Princess Luna asked him. "No spoilers princess." Super 17 grinned at her. "Yup Lulu. No spoilers." Pinkie Pie added. Then Super 17 made a portal appear in front of them. The ponies doesn't look much surprised, due to it being his memories, and he had complete control over it. "This portal will show you my first memories." Super 17 said. The ponies nodded in acknowledgement towards him, and walked inside the portal. The ponies appeared in some sort of street in the middle of afternoon. With many mysterious poles that shower light out, many buildings around the area that easily rivals Manehatten's, and many creatures walking around that looks like Super 17. "What is this place?" Twilight thought to herself. "Those mysterious creatures around here. They must be Super 17's species." Then they saw a creature walking towards them. "Hey! Can't you see that some creatures stands right in front of..." Rainbow Dash yelled to it, but to her surprise, the creature passed through her, like the creature was some sort of ghost. "Okay, that was just creepy." "We're inside Super 17's memories remember?" Applejack reminded her rainbow maned friend. "Everything ain't real." "Isn't real? How is that possible?" "Because Rainbow Dash. What we see is something that has already happened. And that's something we can't change." Princess Celestia reminded her. Rainbow Dash then blushed in embarrassment while giving a bashful smile. "Oh right. I totally knew that." "Sure ya were." Applejack grinned at her. But then they heard a voice nearby. "Hey Lapis! Come on, were late for our appointment!" A feminine voice yelled. The ponies looked, and saw a woman with shoulder-length blonde hair, blue eyes , and wears golden hoop earrings. She wore a blue denim vest and skirt, with dark blue tights, a brown belt, brown boots, and a black shirt that has white and black striped long sleeves in both ears, yelling towards someone named Lapis. "Chill out Lazuli. I was just having a little fun." A familiar voice chuckled. A boy around her height ran over to her. The ponies looked at the man, and saw that he has shoulder-length black hair and thin, blue eyes. Underneath his hair, he has two gold hoop earrings similar to the woman. He wears an orange bandanna around his neck. He wears a short sleeve black shirt with the Red Ribbon Army's logo, and, underneath, he dons a long-sleeve white shirt. The ponies gasped, due to him looking very familiar. "That's... Super 17." Rainbow Dash muttered in surprise. Rainbow Dash was indeed right, the boy looked like Super 17, except he was younger. "That must be the time when Super 17 was younger." Princess Celestia speculated. "But the other one around him called him Lapis. Was Lapis his original name?" Twilight said in confusion. The ponies saw Twilight's point. When they first met Super 17, he was known as the latter and not Lapis. "It's quite a mystery." Rarity said. "Oh, my brain hurts." Pinkie Pie said, while rubbing her head in slight agony. "And who's the lady beside him?" Rarity asked. The other ponies were just as curious, since Super 17 never mentioned Lazuli. "And why is an appointment such an important memory?" Princess Celestia looked at past Super 17. She then used her magic to scan his power, but when she was done scanning, she began to realize something strange. "There is also something more strange. When Super 17 arrived, i couldn't feel his powerful energy. It actually feels much weaker than before." "Really? Super 17 was not that strong before, but he is now?!" Twilight spoke up in surprise. The other Mane 6 were equally surprised at Celestia's recent news. "I think we should watch the memories further, to get our answers." Princess Luna suggested. "Agreed Luna." Celestia nodded in agreement. The young Super 17 along with the girl then walked off. And just as they left, the buildings began to shift. "What the hay's going on?" Applejack asked. "I think the memories are changing locations." Princess Luna said. Then everything went dark, and the location changed to a hall similar to a hospital. "This must be their hospital appointment." Twilight speculated. Then the girl and past Super 17 appeared. The girl impatiently knocked on the door. "HEY! DOCTOR! We are here for our appointment!" The Lazuli yelled at the door, while knocking on the door. "My. Somepony's impatient." Rarity muttered. Then the door opened, and there stood an old man. He had slightly tanned skin, blue eyes, a large bushy white mustache, and long hair. "There you two are. Come right in." The old man greeted. The two teens did as told, and walked inside. The ponies walked through the wall, and saw the old man with a paper on his hand. "Hello you two. My name is Dr. Gero." The old man named Dr. Gero introduced. "Dr Gero? He must be an important person in Super 17's memories." Twilight thought to herself. "Good to meet you doctor. My name is Lazuli. And this is my younger twin brother Lapis." Lazuli introduced herself and past Super 17. Rainbow Dash looked surprised. "This girl is Super 17's sister? Where have i heard that before?" Rainbow Dash thought to herself. "Super 17 had a sister? Why haven't he told us that? Including me?" Pinkie Pie asked herself. "Maybe because he thought it was personal business." Fluttershy speculated. "Quiet ya two. I'm trying to listen here." Applejack shushed them. "Okay, let me ask you a few questions before you get your medicine. First question. How old are you two?" Gero asked them. "I'm 18." "And i'm 17." Past Super 17 said. The ponies slightly gasped at it. "He is 17. And his name is Super 17. Convenient." Pinkie Pie muttered in surprise. "Do you take martial arts?" "Yes we do." Both of them answered. "So Super 17 also takes martial arts. Maybe that's how he gets his moves." Pinkie Pie speculated. "And last question. Are you ready for your medicine?" Dr. Gero said with an evil grin. That made the ponies uneasy. "Why is the last question, "Are you ready to take your medicine?"? What's that supposed to mean." Princess Luna asked confused. "Why is the last question, "Are you ready to take your medicine?"? What's that supposed to mean." Lazuli asked, which made Pinkie Pie slightly chuckle. But then gets serious again. "What are you up to Gero?" Lapis asked uneasy. Dr Gero then took out a gun, and shooted at Lazuli. She fell down the ground unconscious, but instead of a bullet it was an injection, which appeared to withhold sedation. The ponies got shocked at Gero's actions. "LAZULI!" Past Super 17 cried, while checking on his sister. But before he can run off, he was shot as well. "Why... Are you... Doing... This?" Past Super 17 muttered, before falling down unconscious. The ponies glared angrily at Dr. Gero. "Why? Because you are my next test subjects of course. I needed the perfect teenagers for my experiments." Dr. Gero grinned wickedly. "He... He's so insane." Fluttershy muttered in a mixture of shock and fear. The other ponies were just as angry at the doctor's actions. "What is he planning to do with them?" Twilight asked. Rainbow Dash glared at Dr. Gero full of anger. She tried to charge at Dr. Gero. Only to pass through, and land beside the image of past Super 17. "Remember Rainbow Dash. We can't do anything here. This is just a memory. Something that has already happened." Princess Celestia reminded her. "I know that Princess Celestia. But that Gero is a jerk." Rainbow Dash said with venom towards Dr. Gero. "I don't think jerk is the best word, to describe that varmint." Applejack said, who was just as mad at Gero as Rainbow Dash. Next they saw Dr. Gero pushing a hidden button on his desk, which to the ponies surprise, opened some secret stairs down the floor. He pulled the unconscious twins down the stairs. "W... Where is he taking them?" Fluttershy muttered while shaking a bit. The surroundings then began to shift again. "I think were about to find out darling." Rarity said. Once the shift ended, they were now inside a dark laboratory. The ponies looked at their surroundings. Everything was dark and moody, it was filled with unknown advanced technology, and contained many capsules and containers around the lab. Twilight quickly became fascinated in her surroundings. "This is amazing. Look at all the unknown stuff around." "Twilight. This ain't the time for being a fanpony." "Right. Sorry Applejack." Twilight innocently smiled. Next the ponies saw Dr. Gero working on an advanced machine, by pushing some special buttons on it. Lots of steam was smoking out of it. Rainbow nudged to Twilight. "Twilight, you are the egghead. What is he doing?" "Ok first i'm not an egghead. And second, i actually don't know. This technology looks more than a hundred years ahead of ours." Princess Luna walked over to check on Dr. Gero's machine. She took a look on it, and gasped in shock. "Sister, element bearers. You need to see this." "What is it Lulu?" Celestia asked in concern. The ponies walked over to the machine, Dr. Gero was working on. They saw some glass, and became shocked at what they just saw. Some mechanical arms were attaching many metal parts on past Super 17 and his sister. Fluttershy covered her eyes with her mane, Pinkie Pie's head was getting green, and Rarity almost fainted from the sight. The rest of the ponies however stood firm, despite the shocking gaze of the situation. After a few more minutes, the mechanical arms stopped, and out came past Super 17 and Lazuli. Despite their metal attachments, they actually looked exactly the same, yet with a one difference each. On past Super 17's black shirt, there was a red insignia with two 'R's on it. Lazuli had the same insignia on the back of her shirt. "What... What did Dr. Gero do to them?" Fluttershy muttered in shock. "I guess we will find out in a moment." Celestia spoke. The ponies then watched, as past Super 17 and Lazuli slowly opened their eyes. Once they got their full eyesight, they gave a shocked expression. Lazuli angrily gritted her teeth, as she glared at the mad scientist. "Dr. Gero what happened? What's the meaning of capturing us?" Dr. Gero gave an evil grin toward them. "To perfect my project of course." "And just what is that project of yours anyway?" Past Super 17 asked him while clenching his fist. "The project... Is you two." "What?!" The two siblings yelled in shock. "Explain Gero." "Very well. While you were unconscious for a few days, i managed to reconfigure your bodies completely. And it was a success." "You... Reconfigured us?!" "Yes i did. I replaced all your organic parts, with metal parts. Which means that neither of you two are humans anymore. You are both mechanical inside and out." Dr. Gero informed the two siblings. That info made the ponies even more shocked. "Wait. Super 17... Is a robot?! A mechanical creature?" Twilight shockingly exclaimed. The ponies and the princesses were also shocked. Fluttershy felt really bad for both past Super 17 and his sister. Pinkie Pie and Rarity felt the same as Fluttershy, while Rainbow Dash and Applejack wanted to pounce on Dr. Gero. Twilight was still shocked at the two siblings cruel fate. The sun and moon princesses were shocked that a man like Dr. Gero could be so insane. "So you turned us into robots?!" Lazuli asked while still gritting her teeth at him. "Oh no my dear. You are something even greater. You are now both androids." Androids?" "Yes. Half machine on the inside and out. And half organic in your thoughts. Despite your mechanical upgrade, you can still act, move, and think like a human. But i'm afraid that neither of you are now unable to either sleep, eat ever again, die of old age, and you're bodies can obviously never age either." That made Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie gasp. "So that's why Super 17 never felt asleep." "And why Super 17 never accepted my cupcakes." Pinkie Pie muttered. "Oh the horror, of never eating cupcakes ever again." "Your names are no longer Lapis and Lazuli. From now on, you will be called Android 17 and Android 18." Now Rainbow Dash gasped. "Android 18? Wait, now i remember. Super 17 told me about Android 18. So that's how she's named Android 18." Applejack looked at her rainbow maned friend. "Wait. Super 17 told ya about his family, and not the rest of us?" "Well, he told me that i was just like him." "So that's what Androids are." Twilight thought. They saw Android 17 in pure anger toward Gero. "You... How dare you! I should kick your head off, and then smash it with my foot." Android 17 angrily clenched his fist, and was about to punch his new creator. But before he can get close to the doctor, Gero quickly took out a remote from his hand. "Not another step. I also built an off-switch on both of you. Just one push on the button, and you're both turned off for good." That made Android 17 back down. "But you should also be thankful. My upgrades also made the two of you much stronger than before. Enough to finally kill that blasted Goku." "Goku?" Princess Luna thought. "Fine. When will we kill him?" Android 18 said, knowing that it's currently hopeless in opposing him. "Not yet. You see, Goku's not here on planet earth at the moment. So right now, i have no use for the two of you." Dr. Gero stated. He pushed a button on his computer, thus making two open capsules appear. "Each of you go in. Until i have use for you." The siblings reluctantly obeyed, and walked into their respective capsule. Once they were inside, the capsules closed and the two androids were turned off. "Those two are deep inside a failure. I need to reprogram them someday." Dr. Gero muttered, while walking off to the shadows. The laboratory now began to shift once again. But this time, everything was black, and a portal appeared in front of them. "I guess that's the end of the first part of his memories." Princess Celestia said. "Still, we would like to see who this Goku is." Princess Luna stated. "I can't believe that Super 17 is a robot... But it's still awesome." Rainbow Dash thought in mixture of shock and excitement. The ponies entered the portal, and the portal closed. Once the ponies exited the portal, they were back at the dark void where Super 17 stood. "I can see that you're first trip is done." He spoke. "Super 17. Dr. Gero... Androids. You are really a robot?" Twilight asked. "You are both right and wrong. I'm made of metal parts. But i'm still an organic being on the inside. That's what an Android is." "Now we also know why you barely sleep, and why you actually never eat." Fluttershy stated, while giving Super 17 a comfortable hoof on his knee. "Oh, i'm so sorry about this. I didn't know that you had such a rough start." "Yet i'm still alright. Don't worry, i have grown used to being an android." Super 17 replied, while smiling toward her. "Super 17, who was Goku? And why is that name connected to Dr. Gero?" Princess Luna asked him. "I will explain. For many years ago, there was an almost unstoppable army named the Red Ribbon Army, that tried to conquer the entire world. Anyone who tried to stop them, paid the price. But they were eventually finally stopped by someone named Goku, nearly removing the army from existence. Dr. Gero was a part of it, and he wanted revenge against him for ruining his chances of conquering the world. Which is why he created Androids. Powerful artificial warriors to defeat him." "Wow. That story is both tragic, and good." Pinkie Pie noted. "This Goku sounds quite the hero." Rarity added. Princess Celestia was in her thoughts, where she realized something fishy. "Super 17, there is one thing that confuses me." "What is that?" "Dr. Gero said that Android bodies can never age. Then how come you look like this?" She asked him. The ponies and her sister realized their princess's question. In the flashback, Super 17 appeared younger and could no longer age, yet he looks older now and is still an Android. "Princess Celestia's right. Gero said that you're body can't age. But how can your body look older and taller now?" Twilight asked him. "I promise you, that it's something you will find out later. Are you ready for the second part of my memories?" "Heck yeah. I want to see what other awesome things you did. I also want to see Dr. Gero gets what he deserves." Rainbow Dash stated. "Chill out Rainbow." Applejack nudged her. The other ponies nodded, showing that they're ready for the next part. "Good. Here is the next portal." Super 17 said, while he opened another portal. The ponies entered the second portal, and disappeared with it. > Memories part 2: Z fighters > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The ponies appeared back in the same lab past Super 17 and Android 18 were sealed in. Everything was dark, aside from the machines that lights a bit around the place. Rainbow Dash looked around. "Hey, we are back in the lab." "Then this must mean that something shall soon happen again." Princess Celestia speculated. "Yes... The question is just, what's gonna happen?" Princess Luna asked. Then the lights flashed the laboratory, revealing Dr. Gero. They angrily looked at the evil scientist, until they noticed something about him. He looked different than before. His white eyebrows are missing, his clothing is different, his brain is even visible much to Rarity's disgust. But what surprised the ponies most, was his right hand... Which was not only missing, but also sprouting out broken metal parts. On his left hand he held a familiar remote. "Dear Celestia... What happened to his right hoof?" Rarity asked. Applejack looked at Rarity. "Ay ain't thinking we should call it a hoof Rarity. But ah see ya'r point, he lacks his claw like thing." "Talk about creepy." "I know Pinkie Pie." Twilight said. "Strange, there appears to be sprouting metal instead of organs out of his arm. This may mean that he must have turned himself into an Android." "A very good theory my student." Celestia nudged her student, while Twilight blushed a little, they then turned serious again. Next they watched Dr. Gero walking over to Android 17's pod. "I had hoped to avoid activating them again so soon, but it seems the time to put my androids to the test has come. I no longer have a choice" He said, while leaning to the pod. "So he has finally decided to release them? He must be after that Goku guy now." Rainbow Dash said. They then saw Dr. Gero pushing a button on his remote, slowly opening 17's pod. All of them saw Android 17 step out of his pod. "Ah yes, Android 17." Dr Gero said. Android 17 turned over to Dr. Gero. Applejack noticed 17 taking a good glimpse of his remote. Android 17 smiled at his creator. "Dr. Gero. How are you today?" "WHAT?! He simply greets him after being turned into a robotic thingy?" Rainbow Dash shouts in shock. Dr. Gero looked surprised at 17. "Good good. You remember me." "Of course. You gave me life doctor." "I can't believe that 17's sanity is gone. After what Gero has done to him, he is happy being a slave to him?" "Rainbow Dash shush." Applejack shushed her. "Yes. It appears 17's functions properly." Gero thought. "And now for 18." He pushed the button on Android 18's pod, slowly opening as well. Without Gero noticing, the ponies saw 17 giving his creator a cold look. Android 18 stepped out, noticing her brother giving her some kind of signal with his eyes. She turned to Gero, noticing his remote. Android 18 smiled just like her brother did. "Hello doctor how have we been?" "Good, so you remember me too 18." "How can i forget?" Gero smiled in delight, thinking that his creations have become completely obedient. The ponies looked sadly at the two androids. "Why can't 17 and 18 just give Dr. Gero a good flank kicking right now?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Haven't you seen what Gero is holding Rainbow? It's the remote, he threatened them with. One push, and they are good as goners." Twilight explained to her. "I see that you have chosen to be an Android." Android 18 stated. The ponies gasped in surprise at Android 18's words. "So Dr. Gero has indeed become an Android like 17 and 18." Twilight muttered in surprise. "Yes, now I have eternal life like you." Gero said, as his face began to turn more serious. "But we have pressing matters at hand. In the past, the two of you have displayed an unacceptable tendency to disobey my orders. I blame myself for this and the way I programmed you. I have since modified your programming however and I will no longer tolerate insubordination." Gero explained. "Programmed them? Gero has tried to reprogram them into mindless slaves?" Twilight exclaimed. "Programmed? Reprogrammed? Please translate it from egghead to equestrian." Rainbow Dash said. "Programming is the meaning of building something on the inside of a magical or technological object, like giving a orb life, while the creator stands for how it should feel. Reprogramming on the other hand changes the inside of one who already has a program." Twilight explained. "Still too egghead. But better." Rainbow replied. "How horrible of that ruffian. Trying to turn the two of them into mindless slaves." Rarity muttered. They then turned back to Dr. Gero, who now started to give his two androids orders. "Now then, listen closely. Several of Goku's friends are presently outside our door. You are to destroy them immediately." "Yes." Android 18 nodded. "We understand." Android 17 also nodded. The ponies was even more shocked at the androids surprised loyalty to the doctor. "So that's it? They completely gave in to Gero's mind control?" Rainbow Dash said with a few tears in her eyes. The other ponies felt just like Rainbow Dash. Sadness and grief for the two human turned androids. Celestia has never known any living being could be as heartless and cruel like Dr. Gero. Before they could grieve more about the androids sad fate, the laboratory started to crumble a bit. "What... what's happening?" Fluttershy said surprised, despite not feeling the ground rumble due to it being a memory. They watched the iron door close to them, which was getting bumped plenty of times. They heard the numerous sounds of the door getting banged into, as if someone is trying to break in. "Wait. Didn't Gero say something about... Goku's friends are here?" Applejack asked. That stopped the ponies tears from dropping further, and started to feel slightly more hope for them. "And they are against Gero at the moment. They must be here to stop him for good." Princess Luna said. They watched, as Dr. Gero turned to the iron door. "Here they are. The fools still do not realize what awaits them. But they will. Ohh they will." Gero said confidently. While Gero's back was turned, Android 17 and 18 gave a cold glare to the mad doctor, while glancing each other's eyes for a moment. "Now go out there and face them." Gero chuckled wickedly. But then little did he know, that Android 17 quickly sneaked up behind him. And then to both Dr. Gero, and the ponies surprise, he quickly snatched the remote from Gero's hand. "Huh? Android 17? What are you doing?" Dr. Gero asked, shocked at his sudden disobedience. Android 17 smirked toward his forced creator. "This is the controller you used to deactivate us last time? Isn't it Dr. Gero? I think I better hold on to it." The ponies, especially Rainbow Dash couldn't consider if they felt surprised or happy at Android 17's sudden rebellious act. But they mostly felt the ladder, due to now knowing that neither Android 17, nor his sister have never really been loyal to him from the start of their activation. "Now I get it. They just pretended to be loyal to that insane man. Awesome." Rainbow Dash muttered in happiness. "What? You disagree? Then lets try another idea." Android 17 smirked, as he started slowly squeeze the remote with his hand, until it was completely broken and completely unusable. The ponies watched the remains of the remote, falling to pieces. "Now Gero can't threaten to turn them off anymore." Princess Luna thought to herself with a satisfying smile. Dr. Gero gritted his teeth angrily toward Android 17. "What? What have you done?! You dare to defy me? I created you!" Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie blew a raspberry at Dr. Gero. "Nuh uh Gero. They were just ordinary people. You just reconfigured them you meanie pants." Pinkie Pie taunted him, despite that he could not hear it. Android 17 was unfazed by Dr. Gero's outburst, and simply grinned to him. "You are not going to seal us again old man." "You tell him 17." Rainbow Dash cheered. Dr. Gero angrily muttered at his warning, knowing full well what they both are capable of. Yet despite his warning, Dr. Gero started to argue with the two rebellious androids. But before the argument could continue, Dr. Gero turned to the iron door, which started to ignite with blue light and bust open. In a matter of seconds, the iron door was completely busted open. As the smoke cleared, out from the broken iron door, stood a tall green goblin like humanoid. Next to him was a purple haired man looking just like the androids, except probably not made of metal, along with wielding a sword on his back. Then a middle short man with long spiky hair stood with an angry expression. Then there was a very tall humanoid like man wearing green clothes, but to the ponies surprise, also a third eye on his forehead. Lastly, there was a short bold man wearing orange. "Who... are they?" Twilight asked in surprise. "Yes. Who is the man with three eyes?" Rarity asked. "They must be... Goku's friends." Celestia thought. The middle short man chuckled arrogantly at the sight of Gero and the androids. "Well well. What have we here that has you all so nervous? A boy with long hair and a scarf around his neck. And a beautiful young girl. I take that these are the scary androids, that we've heard so much about." "That's them." The purple haired man said with a nod. Twilight along with her friends were surprised at the recent words Goku's friends just spilled. "They've heard of the androids?" "Ooh, ooh, maybe they sent some kind of spy robots to spy on Dr. Gero." Pinkie Pie wildly guessed. "I'm not sure that's the reason Pinkie. You heard the middle sized creature ask the purple haired one if they're the androids." Rainbow Dash said. The ponies took a glance at the purple haired man. He appeared to take Android 17 and 18 the most serious out of the group. "They're androids? They look just like humans to me." The smallest one said with a confused look. "Don't be fooled by the way they look. They're both deadly. And they're stronger than all of us." The purple haired man informed with a serious look. The two androids simply replied with a smirk toward the group. "Wow. Android 17 and 18 are really powerful if they're taken so seriously." Rarity said. "Well..." Dr. Gero grunted. "... Goku's friends are very determined to stop us. But they will not. We will destroy them, just as they destroyed Android 19." "Android 19? Who the hay is that?" Applejack speculated while scratching her forehead, beneath her hat. "Android 19?" Android 17 asked. "So you build him after all? "Yes." Dr. Gero replied. Android 17 turned toward the evil doctor. "I see. But he was a different design than 18 or myself. He was an energy absorbing model. Was he not?" "Energy absorption?" Princess Celestia said, as she grunted at the mention of such an ability. Twilight looked concerned at her princess and mentor. "Is something wrong Princess Celestia?" "No it's alright Twilight." Celestia said, sounding assured that she was fine. In truth, she weren't that fine, the mention of the word 'absorption' reminded her of an old enemy she fought thousands of years ago. "Yes he was." Dr. Gero replied. "How very interesting." Android 18 sarcastically smiled. "And you chose that same design for yourself? You thought that an energy absorbing model like 19 would be easier to control? "Yes." Dr. Gero replied with the same answer he replied to most of the two androids questions. "And now he's been destroyed." She continued. Dr. Gero could only growl in anger, indicating that 18 she was indeed correct. The smallest one started to look more nervous at their conversation. "What are they up to?" "That is enough questions for now! I order you to destroy these intruders!" "Be quiet old man." Android 17 replied with cold yet effective comeback. "Yes be quiet old man." Rainbow Dash said, as she blew a raspberry toward the mad scientist. Pinkie Pie couldn't stop, but join Rainbow Dash in blowing her own raspberry toward him. "It's good to hear that 17 still has some of his sense left." Twilight sighed in relief, thinking that they have no intention of fighting the group. Twilight's thoughts ended however once 17's next words spoke up. "We will deal with them when they're ready." Gero growled even further in anger toward his two rebellious androids. "What did you say?!" "What?! They're still intending to fight Goku's friends?" Fluttershy exclaimed. For a moment, she thought that they now just wanted freedom and peace. But her thoughts were dead wrong. "But Gero has no control of them anymore. Why do they still want to fight?" Twilight asked. Celestia growled toward the doctor. "I guess it must be due to Gero's work. He must have twisted their minds while they were unconscious." The ponies watched further during the memories. As Android 17 simply smirked toward the angry doctor, who looked down at the destroyed remote. "I really wished that you had not smashed my controller!" Android 18 walked further to the lab, stepping on the remains of the remote in the process. "Yes, that's too bad, isn't it?" She then stood in front of a third pod. This one was the largest, and had the number '16' written on the center. "Planning to use it for spare parts?" She asked, as Gero looked at 18 watching the pod closely. Gero's face was soon covered in slight fear at the sight of the pod number 16. "Another pod? Is there another android?" Fluttershy asked. "He's kinda lacking, and the looks departed. Isn't it?" Android 18 asked, as Dr. Gero started to sweat more in fear. "I'd like to see what other modifications you've made to him doctor." "YOU STAY AWAY FROM THERE! You do not open that chamber!" Gero exclaimed. "I order you to stay away from Android 16." He ordered. "Android 16? 17 never mentioned him." Rainbow Dash thought. "Go on. I think it is time to awake our sleeping friend." "Right." 18 replied with a smile, as she started to look at the buttons on the pod. "No! Do not listen to him! I have not completed his programming yet." "What?" The green man said. "Something's not right in there." The small one mumbled, as he stepped back in fear. Android 16, nervous of the situation, decided once more to make his androids reconsider their decision. "16 is just a prototype. If you activate it, it may malfunction." "Wow, Gero must be really afraid, that 16 is activated." Twilight said. Android 17 however merely chuckled at Gero's plead. "Lets find out." 17 signaled 18 to activate the pod, while Gero started to look even more worried. "No 18!" Gero ran, and grabbed 18's arm. But 18 was unfazed by her creator's strength, and lifted her arm. "I think it's time to send you to the scrapheap." 18's arm then swung back, and Gero was send back in respond. "Now where was I?" "If 16 is a prototype, I wonder why you kept it for so long." 18 mumbled, as she got closer to the on switch on the pod. "You destroyed all the other up to 15." "There's more androids? And Gero destroyed them?" Fluttershy gasped, as she felt more anger at the mad scientist. "I was planning to repair him someday. Listen, I made you, and i'm telling you that if you activate 16 YOU WILL REGRET IT!" "We will regret it? I doubt that old man. According to this date, I am much stronger than this module." "Makes no DIFFERENCE!" Gero exclaimed. "18, go ahead and activate him now." 17 calmly ordered his sister. "I am your creator! You will do what I tell you to do! Stop meddling with Android 16 now! Or I will force you to stop!" Gero threatened. "Creator or not. You forcefully made them your slaves." Luna yelled, as she glared at the doctor. "Your controller is broken." Android 17 pointed out. "Ooohhhh." Rainbow Dash let out in respond. "Then I will make another!" 18 then pushed the switch on the pod, and started to activate him. "For the last time! DO NOT RELEASE HIM!" Gero yelled. But then to everypony's surprise, along with the rest of the Z Fighters from the memories. Gero was pierced in the chest by a hand, by none other than Android 17. "What have you done?! How dare you?!" Gero muttered while in pain and shock. 17 then removed his arm from Gero's pierced hole in his chest. "Don't you know, that I gave you life? And I can take it away." Before Gero could react, his head was suddenly knocked off completely, by a mere kick from Android 17. His head landed near the broken gate, where the Z Fighters stood near. "That does it. Now I am mad!" Gero angrily muttered, while he sounded more metallic in his voice. But then more to everypony's shock, 17 flew near Gero's fallen head, and stomped it directly, smashing Gero's head to pieces. "Wow, 17 really outdid his extreme personality." Applejack muttered in shock. "Well Dr. Gero deserved it. That's what he gets, for ruining 17 and his sister's lives." Rainbow Dash said, pointing out her opinion about Gero's fate. "I agree that he should be punished. But 17 did take his revenge a bit too far." Celestia muttered. She was shocked about 17's murder on his own creator. While Gero did deserve punishment, she knew more peaceful ways of doing so. But knowing 17, she doubted that he would ever give Gero such a chance. Android 17 then signaled the small bald man to come near him, despite being reluctant of doing so. After a few minutes of witnessing it, 17 walked off back to 17. "Okay, that was a bit... weird." Twilight thought. "Open the chamber." 17 ordered to his sister. "IF THEY SET THAT ANDROID FREE, IT'LL BE THE END OF ALL OF US!" The lavender haired young man exclaimed, as his hair started turning yellow, much to the ponies surprise. "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" "How did his hair change all of that sudden?!" "I don't know. But his hairstyle's quite impressive." Rarity complimented. "Not only has his hairstyle changed. But also his power. I feel massive power from him." Luna exclaimed, surprising the ponies more. The man then fired a beam of energy toward the androids. The result of the blast created a massive and powerful explosion in respond. The rest of the Z Fighters retreated out of the laboratory. The ponies were blinded by the massive light, as the laboratory was blown to pieces. "What... what was that power?! Was it magic?" Twilight asked, out of pure shock, in respond to the incredible power the lavender haired boy displayed. "Who cares if it's magic. Where's 17 and 18?" Rainbow Dash asked in worry, as she looked around the wreckage of the laboratory, despite everything being a memory. "Hey girls! Over there!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, as she pointed to a mountain cliffside, where both Android 17 and 18 stood completely unharmed, along with 18 having saved Android 16's pod in her hand. "They escaped! That's a relief." Rainbow Dash sighed in relief, that her best friend from the past survived. "Don't make me wait all day 18." Android 17 said, as he watched the sky out of boredom. "Are you going to open it up, or not?" Android 18 soon placed the pod down immediately. "Lets meet our new friend." She pushed the button, which started to slowly open the pod. 18 then impatiently kicked the pod's hatch open. The ponies took a look inside the pod. Inside, there was a huge man, who has icy blue eyes, a red/orange mohawk, and gold hoop earrings. His clothing consists of a dark undersuit, with a lime green vest, green boots, and green handcuffs. The ponies watched the android in interest, as he climbed out. "This must be... Android 16." Fluttershy muttered, as she started to feel afraid of the large android. Android 16 slowly opened his eyes, as he starts pulling himself out of the pod. Once he fully climbed out, the ponies witnessed his massive height. He was almost twice as tall as 17 and 18, possibly even taller than Super 17. "He sure looks like a tough fellar. I give ya that." Applejack awed in amazement. "Well good morning. It must be good to get up from that coffin." 17 greeted the awakened android 16. "How long have you been cooked up in that container for anyway?" Android 16 didn't respond to 17's question. "Come on speak. Did Gero not give you a voice box? He tried to tell us it was dangerous to activate you." "Why would the doctor say such a thing? Do you know?" Android 18 asked. Android 16 said nothing, as he only moved his white pupils to the right. "Do you have something to say?" "Hello. Anybody home in there? The strong-silent type huh?" Android 16 still said nothing, as 17 growled in slight annoyance. "Come on, lets go." "Where to?" Android 18 asked, as the ponies watched in anticipation. "That's it! They're soon off to live they're freedom once more." Twilight smiled in anticipation. But her happiness ended in seconds, once 17 continued with his next speech. "To complete our mission. Are you with me 18?" That took the ponies by surprise, at 17's sentence. "Mission? They just gained their freedom, yet they're still following their mission to kill?!" Rainbow exclaimed in shock. "Gero's program must've messed up their minds." Celestia realized, as she gritted her teeth in anger. "16, Dr. Gero programmed you for the mission to destroy Goku, isn't that right?" Android 17 asked the large android once more. This time, 16 broke his silence, and spoke for the first time. "That's right." "I'll be. So the big guy can speak after all?" Android 17 mumbled in amazement of Android 16's not so much 'strong-silent' type. "Dr. Gero must've programmed him, to react to only commands that relate to his main objective." Android 18 speculated. "I didn't think the doctor was that smart, but lets see if 16 can carry out his objective, to find Goku and destroy him." Android 17 said, as 18 nodded in agreement. "Lets get out of here." Android 17 said, as he flew up in the air, with 16 and 18 following him. All three of them soon took off, flying at high speed. The ponies then felt their bodies starting to float. "Huh? Why are we floating?" Applejack asked. They then witnessed their bodies started to take flight, following the androids. "The memory seems to be far from over, so the memory really wants us to follow." Celestia said. "Alright! Off we go!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, as they all flew alongside the androids, despite everything just being a memory. "This is gonna be so awesome. Can't wait to see what happens next." Rainbow Dash thought. > Memories part 3: Deadly Beauty > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The three androids were still flying through the sky since they left what remained of Gero's lab, which has just been blown to smithereens thanks to a certain lavender color haired man wielding a blade behind his back. The ponies were following them automatically due to it all being a part of Super 17's mind. They all watched the androids continuing to fly above the mountains. "Are those androids still really going after the man Goku, even after gaining their freedom?" Princess Luna wondered. She hated the idea of someone with recent freedom, getting put into such a waste, and continue their mission to kill their hated creator's most hated enemy. The other ponies despised it as much as the lunar princess did. "How wasteful." "Yeah." Pinkie Pie agreed. "Don't these guys have anything better to do, than go killing somepony? Like old friends? Family? Anything?" Princess Celestia only shook her head. "They probably wore. But everything has changed." She looked to the three flying androids above them. "Both 17 and 18's minds were changed to follow the mission Dr. Gero wanted them to do." Rainbow Dash let out a raspberry out of disgust as soon as she heard the name 'Gero'. "Don't say that uncool eggheaded jerk's name! I hate him for ruining 17's life from the start." The other ponies specially Twilight gasped at Rainbow opening her mouth in front of the solar Princess's speech. "Rainbow! We all do share your mutual hatred for Gero. But you're practically badmouthing Princess Celestia with that raised tone of yours." Scolded Twilight mildly. Celestia on the other hand placed her hoof gently in front of Twilight. "Twilight. Please. I do not always have to be treated like royalty, while we're in the memories of 17." She said, before turning to Rainbow Dash. "And you're right Rainbow. Gero is indeed responsible for putting 17's life into such madness to begin with. But what has happened here, cannot be changed today. Not ever." Princess Luna nodded to her sister. "Yes. The past is the past. Which is what we must check further. They're heading towards the earth." She informed. The group watched as the three androids indeed started slowing down and getting closer towards the ground. Once each Android landed one by one, they stood in some sort of long road beside the mountain. "My. What could those three want down here?" Rarity starts to ponder. Android 16 was starting to watch the areas around him. "Ay think we're about ta'h find out Rarity." Applejack replied. Android 17 and 18 started looking around like 16 is currently doing. But soon Android 18 got fed up with impatience. "Is something wrong?" She asked her slightly younger twin. "No. Don't blow a circuit, i just wanted to enjoy the scenery from down here." Android 17 replies to his sister with a calm expression as usual. Fluttershy smiled to them. "Aww. Maybe they do have some good in them in the past." Android 18 then looked in irritation at her brother. "So we walk?" Android 17 looked the other way. "No. We drive. We're going take the next automobile that passes by us. So how does that sound?" Android 18 smiled. "It sounds to me a bit foolish. 17? Why should we waste our time driving a car?" 17 looked back to Android 18 "Because we've never done it before." He pointed out as a matter of fact. Next we turned to 16. "We're planning on taking a little car ride 16. Do you wanna go too?" Fluttershy's smile changed to confusion. "Drive? Automobile? I don't really know what those things are. And what do they mean by take?" Twilight stepped toward Fluttershy. "By 'driving', they might be referring to a chariot, the closest thing Equestria have for something with wheels." "I don't know Twilight. If ya ask me, automobile sounds a bit too... futuristic for a chariot." Said Rarity. "But that's not what worries me the most. 17 did say that they want to 'take' the next one that passes by them." Rarity was getting worried of the ideas the Androids had in their minds. All the ponies continued to ponder their rebellious acts. But before another word could be spilled, Android 18 started smiling to her brother. "It sounds to me a bit foolish. 17? Why should we waste our time driving a car?" 17 looked back to Android 18 "Because we've never done it before." He pointed out as a matter of fact. Next we turned to 16. "We're planning on taking a little car ride 16. Do you wanna go too?" "What? Did you just say Goku?" Android 16 asked. Even through he was an Android, the ponies found his speech confusing. The Android twins looked in confusion as much as the ponies did. "I guess i'll take that as a yes." "Seems Goku is the only thing he has on his mind." Pointed out Android 18. While Android 17 gave him a suspicious look, Android 16 in the meantime turned his head towards the mountains to his left. "Woooow. And i thought i've seen the weird things these days. This Android 16 takes it up to a new level." Rainbow Dash said while giving an equally suspicious look as 17's. Princess Luna was also quite suspicous of the huge humanoid Android. "This is also kind of strange. It would seem that 16 lacks the living minds Android 17 and 18 possesses." Celestia turned to her sister. "Luna? You do remember that 17 and 18 were once humans, don't you? 16 was never a living being to begin with." "We know sis. But it's still quite curious." Luna said. But right before they could continue, a familiar middle sized man landed on the same road as the Androids. But he was different. He was surrounded by a glowing rising flame like golden aura. His hair was also straight up and covered in gold. "Hey look. It's the short guy with the straight weird mane." Pinkie exclaimed while pointing at the man. "Except a can of yellow paint must've hit him on the way here." Rarity couldn't stop gasping and looking at disgust at the straight golden hair. "I hate to sound rude, but THIS does NOT suit this man at all! I mean dying his hair in gold? What is that man thinking?!" Rainbow Dash was starting to laugh. "He looks ridiculous! I bet Tank has a better fashion sense than him!" The princesses and Twilight didn't follow the same hoof steps. "Wait. Doesn't that glowing hair look similar to what the lavender maned man changed to earlier?" Luna wondered. "You are correct sister. I can feel incredible power from him. It's greater than when we felt it earlier." Celestia said. The ponies then continued to watch. "So there you are?" The man stated in a cocky manner. The Androids gained his attention and turned around. "I didn't think it'd be this easy to find. Run out of gas?" The Androids were unfazed by his cocky remark. "There's something different about him. What happened?" "I'm showing my true self. I'm the most powerful being on this planet!" The man once again said in a cocky and arrogant manner. "And you're not welcome here!" "Sheesh. What an egomaniac huh?" Rainbow Dash said. Only to find the other ponies but the princesses slightly glare at Rainbow Dash. "What?" "Ya sure talk big when you always claim yourself to be the 'fastest flier in Equestria'" Applejack stated with a small smirk. Rainbow hated to admit that Applejack had a good point there. Twilight sighed. "And here i thought Trixie had a massive ego." She recalled her past times with Trixie and her boastings. "You're quite brave for someone all alone." Android 18 returned. "Don't worry. I came prepared." He started to chuckle. "I'm going to put you back in the grave you crawled out of!" The two Androids scuffed at his cocky overconfidence. "You're laughing?" He asked while his eye twitched. "Why is that? This is not a joke." "Tell me? Are all you Saiyans so full of yourselves?" Android 17 smirked. "Is Goku like you?" While the ponies still remember Super 17's tale earlier about Goku, they had a clue that the past 17 was trying to get on the man's nerve at this very moment. What 17 asked next only continued to anger him. "Is this the way to try to hide your incompetence?" Celestia also looked in confusion from what 17 just spoke earlier. "Saiyans?" The man glared even more, except even angrier out of 17's snarky but effective remarks to him. "We Androids will always be superior to your kind." The man couldn't hold it. "You take that back! You'll regret saying that! You're nothing but a machine made of tin! You're just a bunch of toys made by a crazy old man!" He threatened the Androids. "And don't forget that tin toys can be broken!" "I swear. This fella has no idea how crazy he sounds." Applejack sighed while planting her hoof at her face in annoyance. Android 18 merely smirked and gave out a snarky reply Rainbow and Pinkie would laugh of. "You talk too much." The ponies were slightly unsure how the man's anger point has reached. "WHAT WAS THAT?!" While the man continued to having anger issues, Android 18 turned to Android 16. "16? Let's see what you can do. Destroy him." She ordered the large Android. The ponies turned to Android 16 as he remained still. "I wonder what he can do." Princess Celestia thought. The ponies were ready to see what the largest of them could do, only to hear what he had to say about 18's order. "I refuse." He simply replied. That actually took both the Androids and the ponies by surprise. Rainbow Dash was dumbfounded. "Refuse?! For peep sake! You're like 3 times that guy's size!" "Or maybe he's just a bit shy." Fluttershy quietly muttered. Rainbow turned to Fluttershy while looking at her straight in the eyes. "You think he's shy? In the middle of an upcoming big fight?" Fluttershy turned away a bit. "I... i was just wondering." Rainbow Dash patted her friend in the side, which she easily accepted. "Right. Sorry if i yelled at you Shy." Fluttershy slowly smiled back, accepting Rainbow's apology. But they put it aside, as it was not over yet. "So the big guy's not so dumb huh?" He pointed out. The man now took a step back, and looked ready for a beatdown. "Now who's it going to be?" Android 17 was also slightly confused. "He refuses? Just who does he think he is?" "Never mind him." Android 18 said. She stepped toward the glowing man. "I'll handle this." She now stood only a couple of feet away from the man. As she pulled some of her front hair back, she sent out yet another cocky and confident remark. "Ready... little man?" The man was not intimidated the slightest. "So it's ladies first is it? That's fine with me. Now don't expect to go easy on you. I fight to win." 18 stood with a cold glare without moving the slightest. Her brother looked confident in her sister, while Android 16 looked the other way, and actually let out a friendly smile. Fluttershy was the one who noticed 16's smile, and couldn't stop but give a warm smile too. The small conversations were now over. Android 18 immediately charged at the man at extraordinary speed that surprised both Rainbow Dash and the princesses. 18 and the man were quick to deal out a blow toward one another. The battle continued with the two trading their blows so quickly that the ponies had slight trouble following. "So... so fast." Rainbow exclaimed in utter surprise. She has never witnessed anyone move this fast besides herself and Super 17. "They're beating each other up so fast!" The ponies watched 18 smash through a mountain wall in an attempt to hit the man. Applejack was amazed by 18's level of strength. Even her older brother Big Macintosh would have trouble smashing through such durable material, yet Android 18 could smash through it as if it were made of plastic. The glowing man took a grip on 18's left arm and threw her up in the sky, which made her crash toward the top of the mountain. The ponies cringed at the sight. "Ouch. That's gotta... hurt?" Said Rainbow, until she noticed 18 unscathed and barely sweating at all. "Wow. Is she made of steel... oh wait yes they are." During their surroundings, fallen rocks from the impact were floating in the sky between them. "For your sake, i hope you can do better than that!" The man growled and flew straight toward 18 to continue their fight. As he prepared to swipe 18, she disappeared right before he could land the hit. The man quickly disappeared as well, and appeared further above the skies where 18 was waiting. The man punched her right in the face, sending her flying back. Android 17 was watching beneath. "Look at that. Dr. Gero's information is wrong. Vegeta's much stronger than we originally thought." He then smirked. "But could he win? I doubt it." "Well at least we know the name of that ruffian." Rarity humphed. "You mean the short guy?" Pinkie Pie jumped to Rarity's face. She nodded in response. "What a silly name. It sounds like vegetables." "Uh huh. What's next? Someone named from undergarments?" Wondered Rarity. The ponies watched both Android 18 and the man now known as Vegeta fly away. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie looked disappointed. "Awww come on! We were just watching the good parts!" Rainbow Dash whined. Pinkie Pie whined as much as her friend. "Yeah. We wanna see more wrestling!" Their friends face hoofed at the two ponies excitement of watching the fight. "Oh look at Vegeta. He's following 18. Following her right into her trap." Twilight heard it first, and was surprised. "What? A trap?" They all stood as nothing happened besides hearing some noises far away. All of it sounded like destruction around the areas until the sounds were dying more and more. Everything was silent but the air sweeping through. The silence was eventually shut off by Android 17. "Oh look. They've come back." He was correct at his assumption. They watched both Android 18 and Vegeta landing back at the road, but further away from the beginning of their fight. "Did you enjoy the ride?" Vegeta growled. "Your warranty ran out with me a long time ago! So you're going to be recycled!" Vegeta lifted his hand up. "Now, be good and be still. I'm going to wipe that smirk off that pretty face of yours!" "Is he gonna blast 18?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Awesome!" Applejack delivered a disapproving glare. "Which side are ya on Dash?" "Hey! They were planning on killing the guy named Goku." Rainbow argued. Before the argument could go on, a large moving vehicle was driving through the road and approaching Android 18 from behind. The ponies gasped. "18! Look out!" Despite trying to warn 18, she could not hear it thanks to all of it being a memory. Thankfully the truck stopped right before it could crash at her. That made the ponies sigh in relief, but it broke at what Vegeta said next. "You laughed at me for the last time android." A man's head pulled out from the window. "What're you doing in the middle of the road?! Are you guys nuts?! Move it! I got a truck of paper clips i gotta get on loaded. So get out of the way!" "Well... sure the man named Vegeta has enough remorse and honor not to fire when innocents are behind 18 right?" Fluttershy muttered. Fluttershy's assumption would soon be proved wrong. "Any last words before i blast you?" The driver's complaints were futile and ignored, and 18 simply grinned at Vegeta. "Make your best shot." Vegeta did not hesitate her request, and fired an energy blast right toward Android 18. She easily jumped out of the way. The driver in his vehicle on the other hand were quite the unlucky ones, he got hit by Vegeta's energy blast, and the vehicle was blasted into thousands of pieces much to the shock of the ponies. "Did he... did he just... fire at that poor innocent man?!" Fluttershy mumbled in both horror, sadness, and disbelief. They watched as there was nothing but a destroyed road breathing out smoke. They just couldn't believe that Vegeta blasted a truck without any remorse or care. No. He blasted it as if it was nothing but an obstacle to his correct target. "The nerve! Does this man possess no honor?! No sense of care?!" Luna roared in anger. Both she and Luna knew that in comparison to other beings they've faced, no innocents were killed. Sure they might've been badly injured or kidnapped in the past, but not even Nightmare Moon has taken the life of somepony. But Vegeta was different. He outright destroyed someone without remorse. Only interested in fighting 18. "Now that's what i like to see. Destruction." Android 18 landed behind Vegeta. "That was just so poor. Your aim was off by 10 degrees." She laughed. Next she added another salty insult. "What's the matter? Did you have something in your eye?" "You can be very quick when you want to be android. But your speed won't save you for me for long!" "Don't worry Vegeta. I don't plan on running from you anymore." After hearing out more conversations from the two, Android 18 sped up and head butted Vegeta on his forehead. The force from her attack made Vegeta stagger and step back for a short moment. The force from the head butt also gave Vegeta quite a bruise. "I never really thought that 17's sister could be this amazing." Celestia thought. "But she does have the same modifications as 17. Yet still, i cannot sense the same powerful energy Super 17 possessed and held back." The ponies could only watch the two continue their fight. It continued with 18 eventually knocking him toward the mountain. Soon afterwards, the rest of the Z-Fighters flew down to Android 18, having just witnessed Vegeta's knockdown. "Are you okay in there Vegeta?" The lavender haired man called out. Next they heard Vegeta's rants. "Of course i am! Why wouldn't i be?" "Your injuries perhaps?" Stated Rainbow Dash. Vegeta stepped out with a few bruises, much to the lavender man's delight. "You're alright?" Vegeta chuckled. "Of course i am. That was just a lucky punch." The chuckle ended at the sight of his comrades. "What're you doing here? I told you that i don't need your help. I don't want it either." Among the ponies, Applejack, Twilight, and Rarity were started to get sick of Vegeta's arrogant overconfidence. "Ah can't believe Vegeta not only attacks innocents accidentally without any shame, but also that this critter dismisses his own friends." Rarity humphed. "I do even wonder why they even call Vegeta a friend." "I know Trixie was arrogant. But Vegeta takes the word 'arrogant' to a whole new level." Twilight glared at Vegeta. "Uh oh. There's an android arriving at 12 o'clock." The 3 eyed man alarmed his friends. "It's 12 already? No wonder i'm starving." Pinkie said while rubbing her stomach. Rainbow Dash placed her hooves on Pinkie's head, and twisted it to the left, showing Android 17 walking towards them. "Oh." "It's time to get out of here. We should leave now and come back when Goku is better. Then we'll fight them." The lavender man suggested. The ponies were also peeking some interest in the said man. He seemed to be the most determined to find a way to beat the Androids. "He seems to be the one who has the greatest grudge among them." Princess Celestia said. "But why? I don't think 17 and 18 did anything bad to him." Fluttershy said. "Sure they might have a mission, but they were once normal humans." Still that did not stop them from wondering. "What is wrong with you?! Run away?! I'm staying!" Vegeta stubbornly exclaimed. "You should listen to your friend. He is the one who has to clear you from the highway." Vegeta was angered as usual. "Are you kidding me? You want me to leave when we just got to know each other? You should be so lucky! I fight alone! I don't need the help of anyone, and that includes these Earthlings. The Namek. And most of all Kakarot! I am the post powerful Saiyan who has ever lived. I fear no one! Especially not this Android!" As arrogant as Vegeta was, Fluttershy actually started to feel slightly bad for Vegeta. He clearly cared little to nothing about friendship. He might be a huge jerk to everyone including his allies. But deep inside, Fluttershy could feel the hidden loneliness in his voice. The ponies now listened to the clapping from Android 17. "A beautiful speech. I can see it now. You truly are a prince of the royal blood of the Saiyan." "If this Vegeta is a prince, then he reminds me of another royal pain." Rarity thought in slight disgust. Vegeta glared at 17. "Stay out of this Android! I'll deal with you soon enough." Vegeta glared at 18 next. "Once i'm finished with her." Android 17 was less than worried about Vegeta's none stopping rants. "Well, i hate to deny you the opportunity to test your strength against 18." His eyes pointed to the rest of the Z-Fighters. "So i'll make a deal with you." The ponies ears were listening to what 17's gonna tell them. "I'm willing to stand aside and let you fight, as long as you fight alone. But if one of these friends of yours try to assist you in any way. Well... i'll be forced to step in." "You don't have to worry about this group! They're a bunch of cowards! They won't risk their lives for me!" The ponies glared at Vegeta's ruthlessness. Android 17 smirked. "Then we agree?" "Yes! I agree!" "Then let's continue?" Asked Android 18. Vegeta grinned at his opponent. "Bring it on!" "As you wish." She did not hesitate to punch Vegeta up in the air, before charging up as well. They could all watch their restarted combat. They each delivered one blow to another, and then Vegeta knocked 18 toward a mountain. Next Vegeta fired a blast toward 18 on the ground. The impact from the blast was enough to breath out as much smoke as his last energy blast. "Is 18... ?" Muttered Twilight. Once the smoke cleared, An droid 18 was revealed to have gotten a few scratches, and a few torn clothes. Yet despite the damage, 18 was barely scratched. Twilight was starting to get confused. "Wait. Something's strange." Rainbow turned to Twilight. "Twilight? What's strange?" At the battlefield, Vegeta landed near Android 18. She lend a grin, while starting to disrobe her damaged blue jacket. She then promptly threw it away. They then started to continue their ferocious fight. The smoke from their clashes made the others unable to watch how the battle goes. "They seem to be evenly matched. Vegeta is starting to slowly get tired. But 18... she seems nowhere close to exhausted." Twilight realized. The realization was true. Android 18 was clearly not showing any sign of exhaustion unlike Vegeta. Even Celestia was amazed by the sheer power and endurance of Android 18 in comparison to Vegeta's. "Gero's work. So this is why they were considered so dangerous." Celestia stated. "No matter how hard or how much they fight, they can just keep on until the opponent cannot." "Glad that Super 17's on our side." Rainbow sighed. Watching back toward the fight, Vegeta has just been knocked back toward a rock. He was on the ground exhausted and beaten by 18. She approached Vegeta, and went to completely decimate her opponent by delivering several deadly kicks. As Vegeta's chances of victory were getting slimmer, his allies could only watch with 17 keeping his eye on them. His screams of agony pushed the lavender man's limits. "FATHER!" He exclaimed and transformed his hair golden while surrounded by a glowing aura, and his power increases to greater heights. He charged toward 18 directly while preparing his sword. He prepared to sweep the female android with a swing from his blade. But right as it made contact with her arm, which she rose to defend herself, the blade only received a few cracks from direct contact. 18 however was unfazed with his attempt to attack her. "Impossible! She endured a sharp blade?! Even the strongest steel in Equestria should have trouble enduring such deadly weapons." Luna was in shock of 18's powerful defense. Celestia was also surprised, but to a lesser extent as her sister's. "It seems that the metal their made of is different than ours." The lavender man floated in shock. That shock was also unfortunate to make him wide open for 17 to strike him down. They now watched the purple gremlin and three eyed man charge at the two Androids as well. The short bald one on the other hand was too frozen in fear to try anything. Android 17 noticed their assault. He first delivered a kick to Piccolo, sending him crashing. Next he dodged a blow from the three eyed man, and begun restraining his neck, enough to render him unable to defend himself. Before Vegeta could charge at 17, Android 18 caught his right foot, preventing him from taking off. "You should've kept your little friends out of this Vegeta." She stated to him. From behind, the lavender man got back up on his feet, and prepared to strike 18 once more. However she noticed, and swung Vegeta right at him, sending them straight away. Couldn't fight more, the lavender man's golden hair transformed back to normal, and his aura weakened until it's all gone. All the ponies were already amazed by their power, but this combat was a walk in the park for them. They were more than amazed. They even felt slight fear for their amazing power. "So this is the true power of Androids?" Fluttershy said, slightly shaking nervously. "I got to say... i'm not sure if i should call it awesome or completely ridiculous." Rainbow Dash shook, not feeling any less nervous than Fluttershy. As they were amazed, Fluttershy then watched 16 still watching the fight without any expression on his face. "Wait. Why isn't he fighting alongside 17 and 18? He hasn't moved a muscle since the start of this whole fight. Is he really too shy to fight?" Wondered Fluttershy. For a moment he actually changed his expression from a cold statue to a warm smile toward the smallest one in the group, making him surprised. He however soon changed back to his usual gesture. Fluttershy was as surprised as the small one. "Did he just smile?" Next, Android 16 let out his arm. A few small birds flew toward him and landed on his hand. Soon more birds flew around Android 16. Fluttershy gained a smile and a small tear from the action. "Fluttershy? Equestria to Fluttershy?" Fluttershy snapped out of her thoughts, and turned to Rainbow Dash. She pointed at 17 who now let go of the triple eyed man, and then after a futile assault from the green goblin like man, he gutted him so hard that he lost his consciousness. Next he flew up and dropped him to the ground. Vegeta prepared one final blast, which 18 caught up easily, and delivered another beating to him. She did not hesitate to step on him, and make him scream in pain. Eventually he couldn't last anymore. His hair returned to black, and his power vanished. Android 17 landed back on the ground. The short man watched in shock. "Oh no! Oh great! I'm on my own now!" He muttered in pure fear. "Come on you. Be a stallion and show some guts." Rainbow called out to him. "Maybe... i just... stay quiet, they won't notice me." Only to his dismay, they turned around to notice him, the remaining one who has not been knocked out. He screamed and stepped back to a mountain wall out of fear. They watched the Androids fly from the Battlefield to back to the road where the small man and the ponies were(yet they could not be seen due to all of it being a memory). The ponies watched closely. "Are those critters gonna give him a beatdown too?" Said Applejack. "I would hope not. But only the Androids can decide it." Twilight replied. They now watched them stare at the small fry of the group. "You look scared." Said Android 17. "Just relax. You are not the one we're looking for okay. We want Goku." The small man now seemed to be more afraid despite of him being spared by them. "This one seems to be at loss for words. Goodbye then." The two Androids turned their backs on him, and started to walk away. "Come on. Let's go. Let's go find Goku." He stated. "17... was he really like this? To find and kill such a great hero?" Rainbow Dash thought. While 17 seemed less so than what they witnessed at the moment except when they first met, that didn't stop her from being surprised by his performance and reason to do so. The rest felt the same as Rainbow Dash. Android 18 was looking confused at her brother. "And just why didn't you ask where Goku is?" "Don't be ridiculous. Sure we can force him to tell us easily enough." 17 pointed out. Next he said something that took the ponies by surprise. "But then we wouldn't get to have the fun of finding Goku ourselves." "Fun? Is that their reason to hunt Goku down? For fun?! Their own amusement?!" Princess Luna roared. 18 now getting his point, started to agree with him. "I see." She then turned to the small one with a smile. "Well... bye." They walked back to Android 16, who now looked the other way. "What're you looking at 16?" "You too made too much noise. You scared the birds away." He stated with his mechanical voice. Everyone but Fluttershy was again taken by surprise. They did not see coming that the largest one would feel for some birds. "This guy... is really freaking me out." Rainbow Dash said nervously. "That makes two of us Dash. He goes from an unknown figure to a bird lover." Twilight said equally nervous. "Birds?" Android 17 simply asked. "Listen. It doesn't look like that any cars are coming down this road. So if you still wanna find one, maybe we should fly somewhere a little busier." "Yes, of course. That's a wonderful idea 18. Yes let's go. I'm sure there'll be plenty of cars to choose from once we find a more public area ." "And while we're at it, i really wouldn't mind placing these torn up clothes." Android 18 said. She clearly hated her ruined clothing at the moment. "Well? Are you ready to begin our search 16?" He asked the largest Android. He obediently nodded to them. "Yes." He then turned around, and they prepared to fly off again. But right before they could, the short man was running toward them. "No stop!" The short man exclaimed. He stopped once he was close enough to them. "For a man that small, he does have some bravery in him." Celestia said. "And... what do you want now?" Android 17 asked, not bothering to turn around. The small one had a serious expression. "You guys leave Goku alone! He's sick! He can't fight you now!" That made them gasp once more. Twilight looked to the others. "Is that the reason why Goku was not during the fight while his friends were in his steed?" "There's no other explanation why. The little one seems to take it seriously." Princess Luna stated. "Not to mention that he's telling the truth." Applejack said, knowing that the small one was telling nothing but truth. "Goku hasn't done anything to you! Why're you after him?" He asked next. "16 has been programmed to destroy Goku." Android 17 answered first. "So that's what we're going to do." "Why? You don't have to do that." The small man tried to reason with them. "We're only following Dr. Gero's master plan." Answered Android 17. "Just listen to yourselves!" Exclaimed both Twilight and the small man at the exact same time. "Did you forget that Dr. Gero is gone! You took care of that!" The small man pointed out next. Rainbow flew next to the memory image of the small man. "Even if it is all a memory, i say he's got a point." "Yes. I haven't forgotten about that. But this friend; is a game." He stated much to the small one's confusion. "What? First for fun? Now all for a game?" Luna roared once more. Celestia placed her wing beneath her sister to calm her anger. The small man had a same expression as Luna's. "That's right. And finding Goku is a part of the game. That's why we did not ask you where he is." "No! Stop this! I beg of you please don't go after Goku." He tried pleading for them to stop. "Please. You don't have to do this." His pleading were of no use. The Androids clearly stood still showing no change of expression from his pleading. "No. I am programmed to destroy Goku." Android 16 protested. Despite his surprisingly gentle act earlier, the ponies were clear that he's fully intending to kill Goku. "There you go pal. Now if you'll excuse us we have work to do." The small one was speechless from their replies. "Stop worrying about Goku and take care of your friends. They look like they could use some senzu beans." "Senzu beans? I hate beans." Pinkie said in disgust, as she let out a raspberry. Next they watched Android 18 approach the small one. But instead of doing the expected, she did what they did not expect. She approached his face, and calmly smooched him a little. Despite of their earlier actions, a few of them felt a little warmed by what she did. "Awwww. Young love... even if they are so dangerous." "Good luck. Bye." Was what she said before they took flight to continue their mission. As they flew away, the ponies started to quit the portal as the memory was starting to come to an end. The ponies now found themselves back in the dark void. Super 17 was standing in the center waiting for them and letting out a smile. "Enjoying your field trip?" The ponies looked up to him. Rainbow Dash approached him. "17... all of it. Was it really... all of it... just for a game?" Pinkie approached him next. "And for fun... in a bad way?" 17's smile disappeared, which turned to slight regret and remorse. "Yes. Everything you witnessed was what happened." Now Princess Luna stormed up to Super 17(even through she's slightly shorter than him). "How could you?! How could you treat it all as a mere game to kill Goku?!" Princess Celestia had to use some of her magic to calm down her sister and pull her away. "Luna. Please calm yourself. It's in the past. This here is not the 17 from what we saw." Princess Luna calmed herself, and looked back to him. "Yes. I... my apologies." "Water under the bridge princess." Super 17 grinned at them. "I took it as a game, and had to obey Gero's command. But i could not resist it back then. And we had nothing else to do at that time." "We understand." Fluttershy smiled. Then she had something in her mind. "But... 17?" 17 gained Fluttershy's attention. "What about Android 16? Why was he so different from you and 18? We know he was not organic like you and your sister were, but he almost acted differently. He sometimes splits between a person who wants a pony dead, and somepony who cares about the nature and animals like an animal lover." "That's what makes Android 16 who he is. Rumors has been said that Dr. Gero has modeled him after his long lost son." The ponies gasped. "That varmint had a son?" "Well i never. For a man that ruthless having offspring?" "Yeah i know. He's quite complicated. But Gero did not want Android 16 online because he didn't want him destroyed. So he made him quite the soft spot, just like Fluttershy." Super 17 replied, nodding to Fluttershy. The ponies felt something warm in their hearts from both what Super 17 said, and also from why 16 was so different. "Very interesting. Clearly you and your fellow androids must've been very dangerous back then." Rarity said. Super 17's smile vanished in thin air from what she said. "Something wrong 17?" "Yes. You're quite wrong Rarity." The ponies watched 17's expression turning more serious. "What're you saying?" "While we Androids were very dangerous and powerful at that time... we were far from being the ones that threatened the planet most." Said Super 17. The ponies felt scared of what he just mentioned. Something that's even more dangerous than the Androids. Super 17 said nothing and started activating a new portal. "Go through this. This will show you what was more threatening and dangerous than me, 18, and 16." The ponies were nervous, but they decided to go through. All but Fluttershy. "I... i don't know if i can." Fluttershy mumbled. Super 17 walked toward her, and kneeled down to her. He gave her a reassuring smile. "Don't back down. It might just be a game for you." While reluctant, she felt the need to go along with her friends, and started venturing through the portal with her friends. "Thank you 17." The portal then closed, and the ponies were off to what they're gonna witness next of 17's past.
