> Geodes Chaser > by TarBlade > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > 1. Cafeteria Accident > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kilictal Alp, a high school student, approached the cafeteria bench, holding a cup of coffee in his hand. Sunset Shimmer, Applejack, Rarity, Keen Feather, and Sakinlik Alp, Kilictal Alp's older twin brothers, were already seated on the bench. Right then, he sat on the bench. Sakin asked, "Are you drinking coffee again?" "Yes, any problems with that?" Kilic asked, sipping his coffee. " "Oh nothing, it's just... That's the 11th coffee you've had today, and we're still in the middle of the day!! " "Brother, calm down. A little coffee won't hurt me, right?" "Fine," Sakin answered, taking a bite of his apple. "Can't you two just get through one day without fighting?" Sunset asked, crossing her arms across her chest. "Fighting?" said Kilic and Sakin at the same time. "You guys just argued about coffee right before," Keen began the dialogue. "Oh yeah, that one," Sakin said as Kilic scratched his nape. "Y'all know why the others haven't arrived yet?" Applejack asked Rarity answered, "No, darling, I don't." "I don't," Sakin said. "Neither does Kilic." Kilic nodded as he sipped his coffee. "There they are," Keen Feather said, pointing back slightly away from Rarity. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were there. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy then arrive, with Rainbow making an annoyed look at Fluttershy. "Sorry, we're late because Fluttershy stopped me from stepping on a beetle!" "You can't just step on a tiny, adorable beetle," Fluttershy stated as she pulled out her fairly large beetles. "That's just a beetle!" said Rainbow Dash, rolling her eyes. "That's a cute little beetle," Fluttershy replied, holding out her beetle to her friends. "Aah, darling, keep that nasty beetle away from me. It is disgusting! " Rarity grabbed Applejack's arm, frightened. Rainbow Dash then had an idea. She hit Fluttershy's hand from the right side, causing the beetle to fall on Rarity's face. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH" Puffer Stone and Hance Lazuli are in the computer lab. While Puffer sits in the chair and plays with the computer mouse, Hance is using his computer. Twilight then appeared, holding a stack of books. "Hance, I brought some books that could be useful to you." Twilight placed the book next to Hance. " So, how is it going?" "Pretty good," said Hance. "I'll need a few more tries to finish this program." Hance then searched through the books Twilight had brought, open one of the slightly thick yellow books, and typed a few codes on his computer. Hance open the book again, and then repeat with the other books. Twilight was beside Hance, helping him completing his program. Hance's stomach rumbled loudly, and things became awkward. "I'll need to eat something." Hance rubbed his neck. Hance and Twilight then walk out, but Twilight suddenly stumbles and falls, causing Hance to fall too, because Twilight reflexively pulls Hance's hand when she falls. It took them a while to realize that their faces were only a few centimeters apart, and their faces turned red. What is even more embarrassing, they both heard the sound of the camera and turned to look at the source of the sound. "Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your 'busy things'," Puffer smirked. "But it looks like you guys are having fun." Puffer then immediately ran away while Hance and Twilight ran after him, screaming for Puffer to delete the photo he'd taken. "Get back here, you PUFFER!" Puffer ran as fast as he could to the cafeteria, but he accidentally bumped into Valent Electro, who was with Flame Abyss and Pinkie Pie. They both fell down. "Puffer, what's the rush?" Ask Flame At "no time to explain," Puffer immediately got up and ran as fast as he could. "Weird" Valent got up and fixed his glasses. Suddenly, Hance and Twilight ran past them, and Hance accidentally hit Valent's shoulder, causing Valent to fall again. "I'm sorry, Valent," Hance said, pausing before returning."Give me your phone, Puffer!" Flame gives his hand to help Valent up. "What's wrong with them?" "Valent," he said as he adjusted his glasses. "Can't they at least not bump into me?" "Come on, follow them!" Pinkie jumped up happily. "Looks like they had fun!" "Pinkie!" said Flame. "Wait!" Pinkie then ran after Hance, Twilight, and Puffer, followed by Flame and Valent. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH" Rainbow Dash laughed loudly when she saw what happened. Applejack covered her face with her hat. Kilic sipped his coffee while Sunset, Sakin, Keen, and Fluttershy glared at Rainbow Dash with angry faces. "KEEP that disgusting beetle away from me!" Rarity screams "Calm down, sugarcube," Applejack said as she took the beetle from Rarity's face and handed it to Fluttershy. "The beetle is harmless." "Now why in tarnation do you think that's a great idea, Rainbow?" Applejack asked for Rainbow Dash "It's just a prank," Rainbow Dash replied. "Come on, that's funny." "No, that's not funny!" That was far too much! " "Come on, AJ, it's just a harmless prank!" Applejack and Rainbow Dash then argue. Sunset just slaps her face at the behaviour of her friends while Kilic is still sipping his coffee. On the other hand, Puffer was running as fast as he could while looking behind him, without realizing he was running towards Rarity and was about to bump into her. Sakin, who realized it immediately, warned Rarity. "Rarity, Watch Out!!" Rarity managed to dodge, but Puffer instead hit Applejack, who was arguing with Rainbow, and then Puffer's position with Applejack was the same as Hance and Twilight's previous fall. At that moment, Hance, Twilight, Pinkie, Flame, and Valent came. "Looks like you guys are just having fun,"" Hance smirked as he pulled out his smartphone and snapped a photo of the scene. "Take it, Puffer" Applejack's face immediately turned red, and she threw Puffer aside and got up. Sunset then stretched out her hand to help Applejack get up. Sunset crossed her arms over her chest, "Now you guys." "What happened?" "Puffer took a photo of our embarrassing moment, so we went after him to delete the picture," Hance rubbed the back of his head. Sunset then turned to Puffer, who had just woken up with a judgmental face. "Alright, my fault," said Puffer as he pulled out his phone to delete the picture. "I'll delete it." "Good, I'll also delete your embarrassing picture earlier," said Hance as he took out his phone. Sunset sighed at the behavior of her friends, but suddenly she heard the sound of Kilic sipping his coffee again. and all eyes turned to him. "What?" Kilic asked. A man walks through Canterlot Mall, his black hair neatly combed, wearing a black jacket and brown pants. Sunglasses and gloves are also his additional accessories. A young girl then came to meet that person. Her hair was grey, with bright blue eyes. The girl then hugs the man. "Dad," the girl said as she let go of the hugs."Is there something important?" "Well shortly, I have an important task for you," the man said, then walked, followed by the girl. "You can do it right." The girl nodded, and then the two of them walked out of Canterlot Mall. "Good girl" > 2. Old Memories and New Student > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sakinlik Alp and Kilictal Alp are twin brothers, they are new students who transferred to Canterlot High School, they decided to take a walk around to know more about their new school. "Sakin, I want to go to the cafeteria for a while" Kilic took off his mask for a while. "You want to join me?" "Not yet, I want to walk around here, for now, I'll see you later" Sakin tilted her head for a bit Kilic nodded and was about to move to the cafeteria, but his brother stopped him. "And it's still our first day, don't mess around here" Sakin winked one eye while Kilic rolled his eyes Kilic then walked away and then closed his mask again, but suddenly he was hit by a girl and the girl fell. Her hair is red and yellow, the girl is wearing a black jacket, purple shirt and orange skirt. The girl's name is Sunset Shimmer, Kilic then gives his hand to help her stand up. "I'm sorry for bumping into you," Sunset then rubbed her neck. "I didn't see you earlier." Kilic just nodded in forgiving her and apologized too. But he didn't move from there, his royal blue eyes still looked at Sunset deeply. Sunset who realized that immediately slightly blushed on her face. "My name is Sunset Shimmer," Sunset held out her hand for a handshake. "What's your name?" "Kilic," Kilic then lowered his mask and shook Sunset's hand. "Kilictal Alp" "I've never seen you before, are you a new student?" Kilic then nodded. "do you want me to show you around?" "maybe you could show me the way to the cafeteria" Kilic raised his blue mask. "Alright, follow me then" Sunset and Kilic then walked toward the cafeteria. After a few steps, a voice stopped the two of them. "Kilic brother" Sakin came running and called his brother "Sakin brother," Kilic turned and stopped in his tracks. "what's the matter?" "I thought you were going to the cafeteria?" Sakin ask "I was" Kilic replied "with your girlfriend?" Sakin grinned "It's a 'girl friend'," Kilic pointed at Sunset with his thumb. "her name is Sunset Shimmer." "Hi Shimmer," Sakin reached out for a handshake. "I'm Sakinlik Alp, Kilic's brother." "Sunset," Sunset smiled and shook Sakin's hand. "call me Sunset." "Sakin, I want to go to the cafeteria with Sunset, wanna join?" Kilic asked his brother "no, I don't want to bother your date" Sakin smirked and left while Sunset and Kilic went to the cafeteria. ====================================== "Kilic, what are you doing right there?" a voice is calling Kilic turned to look for the sound's origin, it was Sunset Shimmer. "hi Sunset" Kilic coded for Sunset to sit beside him Sunset approached Kilic and sat beside him, after that Kilic took a sip of his coffee and then put it back. "What are you doing here??" ask sunset "Remembering old memories while drinking coffee," Kilic took a sip of his coffee. "what's up?" "Nothing, I was just walking around here and then I saw you sitting under this tree," said Sunset while looking up at the tree Kilic then continued to drink his coffee while Sunset still sat beside him, but Kilic felt something strange. Kilic then quietly took a small stone beside him and at the right moment, Kilic immediately turned around and threw the stone and hit the hand of the person who was about to sneak from behind. "OUCH!!" Puffer clutched his hand that was hit by a Kilic stone, his phone dropping to the ground before he could take any pictures of them. "Puffers?" Sunset is shocked to see Puffer and the 2 other people with him. "Rainbow??, Sakin???" Rainbow Dash and Sakin put on an innocent face while whistling, but Puffer still held his aching hand. "I'm so sorry about your hand," Kilic walked over to Puffer and held out his hand. "I thought you were something dangerous." "It's okay," Puffer took Kilic's hand and got up. "nice reflection." "I wonder what are you gonna do with the phone?" Sunset with a cynical face folded while her arms across her chest "Nothing!" Puffer took his phone. "we're just doing some small vlog?" Sunset just raised an eyebrow but still crossed her arms, while Puffer put on a fake smiley face and sweated. ====================================== Flame, Valent, Pinkie and Vinyl Scratch were hanging out in the school corridor, and then a girl with grey hair and bright blue eyes walked past them. Flame then realized something. "And I told Applejack to put chocochips in the muffin batter but instead she put potato ch-" "Is she a new student?" Flame cut off Pinkie's words. "I've never seen her before." "why do you care?" Valent took off his glasses and earphones then smirked. "does she looks cute for you???" "of course not!" Flame screams "Guys, calm down, we should say hello to our new friend!" Pinkie then immediately jumped up and ran towards the girl earlier "What Pinkie meant by greeting was giving her a heart attack right?" Flame put on a cynical face then turned to Valent and Vinyl who nodded to confirm "I think we should go see the others, about Pinkie, she will definitely be right there suddenly by breaking the 4th walls," Valent said as he walked away followed by Flame and Vinyl The girl then opened her locker, but her eyes immediately widened when she saw what was inside. "SURPRISE!!" Pinkie startled the girl so she fell down "What the hell!??" "Hey!, I've never seen you here before, are you a new student?, what's your name?, your favourite cake?, have you ever-" the girl immediately closed Pinkie pie's mouth. "yes, my name is Moon Dust, and no" Moon then gets up from the fall Pinkie then flooded Moon with lots of questions, but instead of answering Moon looked to the right and left to make sure no one was there. After making sure that no one was there, Moon immediately took out a kind of anesthetic and immediately injected Pinkie's neck. The half-conscious Pinkie tried to get up and say something, but Moon then shut her mouth and whispered something. "don't worry, you won't die, you just won't wake up for about a week" Moon then chanted something in Pinkie's ear after Pinkie fainted completely, Moon then took Pinkie's necklace and kept it. then she took out a photo of Pinkie Pie and tear it up. > 3. Fall Asleep > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "so, is she fine darling?" Rarity asked "she's fine, nothing's wrong," said Wallflower Blush while watch over Pinkie "Maybe she's just too tired?" Flash Sentry suggest "Ah don't think she's too tired" Applejack raised her hat a little "So what do you mean?" "When Rarity and I found her, she passed out in front of an opened locker with a few scraps of crepe paper around her" Applejack started telling the story. Applejack then tried to take something out of his placket, Applejack pulled out a torn photo of Pinkie. "Ah found this near Pinkie, I have no idea what this all means" "Okay then, I'll go ask the others, you girls stay. maybe someone knows something or someone knows what to do" Flash was about to leave before crashing into the door and leaving "Ah hope things gonna be okay," Applejack sighed as she lowered his hat. "or maybe not." ====================================== Keen sighed, then looked seriously at the target of his arrow that was moving linearly, he drew his bow and released his arrow that shot fast and pierced right in the middle of the target. Keen then took one more arrow and drew his bow, Keen squinted his eyes and released another arrow which ended up right in the middle of the target and cleaved the previous arrow. Keen smiled when he saw the arrow he shot right on target. "It was amazing Keen!" Fluttershy praised Keen while clapping "Now, it's your turn Fluttershy" Keen spun his bow Fluttershy nodded and took one arrow then drew the bow and released the arrow. The arrow shot slowly and pierced the black target. Fluttershy just looked down in shyness. "a pretty good shot, don't give up and try again!" Keen cheers Fluttershy Fluttershy then tried again and again, but the best shot she got was only on the blue target. Keen then walked over to Fluttershy and showed her how. after Keen showed her how to do it right, Fluttershy tried again and finally, she managed to shoot it right at the red target. "yep that's it, good job Flutter-" Keen's words were cut off when Fluttershy hugged him "thank you Keen" Fluttershy let go of her hug while Keen's face was slightly red, Keen then nodded and smiled but there is Rainbow Dash, Sakin and Puffer hiding somewhere. "Puffer, did you get the picture?" Rainbow Dash whispered "I did" Puffer replied "good job, let's go find another target," said Sakin Sakin, Puffer and Rainbow then left to find another target, but there were still other people hiding there. she is Moon dust. Moon Dust then took out her gun and aimed it at Keen's shoulder, then fired it. but what came out was not a bullet but a dart that contained anaesthetic, keen immediately fainted after the dart was shot into his shoulder. Fluttershy was shocked and wanted to scream, but suddenly a dart hit her shoulder too, Fluttershy then fainted. Moon Dust came to Fluttershy and took her necklace. Moon Dust didn't forget to take out Fluttershy's photo and tore it up. "sleep well" Moon then walked away leaving the two of them ====================================== Twilight and Hance were walking through the school corridors when Flash came running up. "Twilight, Hance, there's an emergency in the treatment room," Flash said breathlessly. "You should be there immediately." "what's the emergency?" Hance asked "I'll explain there, come with me now" Flash replied "You guys go first," Hance spoke. "H-4rc and I will go call the others." "H-4rc?" Flash asks "That's my robot," Hance pointed out a small head-sized robot hiding behind him, the robot then waved his hand to Flash. "My project, It's still a work in progress." Flash and Twilight then head to the treatment room while Hance and H-4rc run for the others. they went to the front yard of the school, and they then found Sunset and Kilic holding a cup of coffee that was almost finished. "What's the rush, Hance?" ask sunset "Flash said there is an emergency in the treatment room, we have to go there immediately!!" "Alright, let's go," Kilic said "what about the others?" ask sunset "I'll text my Brother Sakin to inform the others," Kilic replied. "come on" ====================================== Flame Abyss, Valent Electro and his older sister Vinyl Scratch were walking toward the archery club venue. when they got there they were surprised to see Fluttershy and Keen Feather lying there, the three of them then immediately approached Fluttershy and Keen. "What just happened to them?" Flame asked "I don't know, but there's a dart on their shoulder!" Valentine said "We have to get them to the treatment room ASAP, Valent, Vinyl, you guys take a stretcher!" Flame ordered Valent and Vinyl then went to get a stretcher, they then came back with 2 stretchers and immediately took Fluttershy and Keen Feather to the treatment room. ====================================== "Calm down AJ, maybe Pinkie is just too tired?" Twilight suggest "Then can you explain why is there a photo of Pinkie that is torn up like that??, that doesn't make any sense!" Applejack replied "Applejack has the point, it doesn't make sense for Pinkie to tear up her photo," said Hance Kilic then went over to Pinkie's body and started to touch her arms, hands and neck. "Come on Darling, you guys are telling me as if someone drugged Pinkie out," Rarity said "There was someone," said Kilic "WHAT??!" all screaming except Kilic "There's a small injection scar on her neck, either she was drugged or she was poisoned" Kilic explained "The good news is, the chances of her being drugged are greater than she was being poisoned" Kilic continued "you're not gonna tell us that there's the bad news, right?" Sunset is getting worried "The bad news is, Pinkie's necklace that contains the geode is missing" "You mean like, stolen??!!" Sunset asked in a rather loud voice "Yes," Kilic nodded then continued. "That explains why there's a photo-" "Kilic!, I came straight here after you texted me about an emergency" Kilic's words were cut off when Sakin gasped for air after suddenly entering the door followed by Puffer and Rainbow Dash "so, What's the emergency?" Sakin continued to asking "That's the emergency" Kilic points to the fainted Pinkie Sakin, Rainbow and Puffer then looked at each other, then looked at Kilic with a straight face. "Seriously??!, that's the emergency??!!" Rainbow screams Kilic want to talk but it went cut off when Puffer went to Kilic and tries to calm him down. "relax Kilic, maybe Pinkie just didn't get enough sleep or she passed out from exhaustion" Puffer suggested "Ah don't think she just fainted Puffer" Applejack then walked over to Puffer "at least don't tell us it's an emergency, you've made us thinks that bad things happened, at least nothing really bad happened right?" Rainbow crossed her arms in front of her chest Kilic then wanted to say something, but someone knocked on the treatment room door. Sakin who was closest to the door then opened the door to see Flame, Vinyl and Valent carrying Fluttershy and Keen Feather on a stretcher. "What, what happened to them?" Rainbow Dash is getting worried "We don't know either, but we found them passed out with darts on each of their shoulders" Flame explained Wallflower then walked over to the two of them and checked them. then take a breath. "they're still alive, but it looks like what happened to Pinkie happened to them too" Wallflower explained "You mean Pinkie was shot with darts before too?" Rainbow asked "It's not like that," Kilic went over to Fluttershy and Keen Feather to pull the darts from them while Wallflower then cleaned their wounds. "Fluttershy and Pinkie were drugged so someone could steal their geode, while Keen must have been with Fluttershy at the time so someone had to incapacitate him too." "Kilic have the point, and we have to be more careful because it looks like we are the target" Sunset continued with a sigh and looked at Twilight, Rarity, Applejack and then Rainbow Dash > 4. A Trapped Trap > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Twilight's house) Twilight, Wallflower, Sunset, Sakin, Hance and his robot H-4rc are reading the books at Twilight's house and the books from the school library that they borrowed, trying to find the chemical or drug that was injected into their friends. After several hours of searching, they still couldn't find it. Kilic then came with a cup of coffee and a glass of tea, Kilic gave the tea to Sunset, and Sunset thanked him for it. "Did you guys find something yet?" Kilic asked. "No, we've been looking for hours but still nothing, NOTHING!" Twilight buried his face in the book he was reading Sunset sighed and looked down for a moment, then turned to Kilic. "What about you guys? have you found out who did it or at least got any clue?" Sunset asked, and Kilic answered by shaking his head and then taking a sip of his coffee. "The only clue we have is the dart, but that's not enough to reveal who did it" "I've tried reading Pinkie or Fluttershy minds, but it's blank as if they never had a memory" Sunset patted her face with another sigh Things were silent for a while, but then Twilight shouted. "I FOUND IT!, I just found out what Chemical Drug put in Pinkie and Fluttershy", Twilight raised her book. "And what is that?" Kilic asked "The Chemical Drug that put in Pinkie and Fluttershy was a chemical drug called Monsforgatulia, I found it in a library school's book about 105+ types of hazardous chemicals drug and how to make them" Twilight explained "I wonder why there is such a book in school and who put it" Kilic whispered to Sunset, sunset then nodded "Monsforgatulia is a dangerous chemical that can cause the victim to be unconscious for 1 week and they will lose their memory for a while," Twilight continued to explain. "Monsforgatulia comes from the Foralia flower" "That explains why I can't see through Pinkie or Fluttershy's memories before" Sunset spoke "Wallflower, do you have any flower like that?" Hance asked Wallflower which was replied with a nod "Okay, you guys go take care of this flower, I'll try to find out the one who is responsible for all of this again," Kilic then immediately walked towards the exit, but he stopped his steps and turned around, then asked his brother. "Brother, who just knows that Pinkie and Fluttershy passed out?" "Everyone in the school Kilic, everyone," Sakin replied. "what is it?" "Did one school also know that Pinkie and Fluttershy were being targeted by someone?" Kilic asked back "no, it's just all of us here, also Rarity, Applejack, Flash, Rainbow Dash, Puffer, Vinyl, Valent, and Big Mac" Sakin replied to the question in confusion, Kilic then nodded and his brows started to bend down, his memory flashed back to that moment, It's happened yesterday. Kilic was walking leisurely in the school corridor, but he almost bumped into a girl named Moon Dust. Kilic then got sorry and acquainted with the girl, after Kilic mentioned his name, the girl says she feels sorry for Kilic's friend who were knocked out and now are in the treatment room, she also hopes that the one who knocked her out will be caught soon, Kilic is confused but just nods and thanks then walks away. "KILIC!", a voice interrupted Kilic's mind, which was Sunset's voice. "What are you thinking about?" "It's Nothing, seems like I just found something, see you later" Kilic then immediately walked out quickly, leaving questions in the heads of his friends. ====================================== [2 days later] (Canterlot High School) Rarity was walking towards to the cafeteria, Trixie then came up to Rarity. Trixie asks Rarity to fix her torn robe to which Rarity says yes by nodding, Rarity then proceeds to go to the sewing club room while Trixie goes to the cafeteria. Rarity then walked leisurely while carrying Trixie's robe to the sewing club room, but Moon Dust sneaked up, quietly following Rarity into the sewing club room. Rarity finally arrived and started repairing Trixie's robe, while Moon sneaked in and took an injection from her pocket, then raised her hand ready to knock Rarity out who didn't notice Moon was behind her. Moon then immediately swung her hand at Rarity's shoulder, but a hand immediately reached her arm and prevented her from knocking Rarity out. Moon turned and saw Kilic behind him with his hand holding Moon's arm. Behind Kilic, there are also Trixie, Rainbow Dash, Vinyl Scratch and Valent. Then Puffer, Flame, Applejack and Flash who had previously been hiding in the sewing club room appeared. while Rarity just smiled at Moon and then continued to work on repairing Trixie's robe. ====================================== [minutes earlier when Trixie hadn't given Rarity her cloak] Trixie was taking a leisurely stroll down the school corridor, when she turned a corner, Kilic grabbed her and covered her mouth so she wouldn't scream. "Calm down Trixie, I need your help," Kilic then removed his hand from Trixie's mouth. "The Great and Powerful Trixie is ready to help anyone in need," Trixie replied. "but seriously, you could just ask for it in a better way instead of treating me like this" "I need your robe for a moment" Kilic said "what for?" Trixie then handed her cloak to Kilic, Kilic then tore a bit of Trixie's robe. Trixie was furious with that. "HEY! How dare you tear the Great and Powerful Trixie's robes!" Trixie shouted "Relax, just bring your cloak to Rarity and she will fix it, this is part of the plan" "what plan?" Trixie asked. "no time to explain, meet me at the cafeteria when you're done" Kilic replied. [minutes earlier when Trixie had given Rarity her cloak] Trixie then walked to the cafeteria to meet Kilic, but Kilic was already there with the others, Kilic then immediately called Trixie to come. "You said you'll meet Trixie in the canteen?" Trixie asked Kilic didn't say anything, but he pointed at Moon Dust who seemed to be watching Rarity and followed her silently. Trixie just nodded, then they all carefully moved to follow Moon Dust. ====================================== [back to present] Moon Dust had been caught trying to knock Rarity out and retrieve her geode, Moon then angrily looked at everyone there. but Moon Dust immediately hit Kilic's stomach with his other hand which made Kilic hurt. Moon immediately ran towards the door but was stopped by Applejack and Rainbow Dash, Applejack then tried to hit Moon, and she dodged it while avoiding Rainbow's kick that came from the side as well. causing Applejack and Rainbow Dash to hit and kick each other. Kilic then jumped at Moon, and he managed to hit Moon's arm and made her arm hurt, Kilic then wanted to attack Moon again but Moon immediately issued a device that emitted a glare so that everyone there could not see. The glare then disappeared along with the disappearance of Moon, Rainbow Dash immediately used her super speed to chase Moon all alone. the others tried to stop Rainbow Dash but Rainbow Dash didn't listen and ran as fast as she could to find Moon. Rainbow Dash then found Moon cornered in a narrow alley, Rainbow was ready to beat her, but a dark smoke immediately appeared in front of Rainbow Dash, the smoke then turned into a person and immediately punch Rainbow Dash to the wall. Rainbow Dash got up and readied her stance to fight the smoke man, she ran towards the person and clenched her fists, then jumped and lunged at the person and was about to hit him. > 5. Man of Smokes > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash retreated to dodge the smoke man's attack, after taking a few steps back, she started to think of a way to defeat the smoke man in front of her. The smoke man was no ordinary man, his ability to turn into smoke and move as fast as the wind made him powerful, although not as fast as her but it was quite troublesome for her. Coupled with his fight ability. The man then challenged her to attack him, and she started running fast towards the man and doing side kicks. The man turned into smoke only to move behind her. She then tried again to kick, hit or at least give the man an attack. But the man could always dodge. When Rainbow tried to do a kick by jumping high from above, the smoke man immediately took action by turning into smoke again to avoid Rainbow Dash's kick and turning back into human form, then he lifted Rainbow Dash with his hand and took the geode using his other hand. The man then threw Rainbow Dash to the wall, at the same time Kilic, Applejack, Trixie and Puffer came to help, Applejack and Trixie then helped Rainbow Dash while Kilic and Puffer started attacking the man. ====================================== Twilight, Sakin and Hance with his H-4rc were in the treatment room accompanying their friends who were lying there, later then Sunset and Wallflower came with an antidote for their friends. Wallflower then proceeded to take one shot filled with the antidote and inject it into Pinkie Pie, then do it again to Fluttershy and to Keen Feather. Wishing their friends a speedy recovery. "Will it work?" Twilight asked worriedly "We'll see" Sunset replied with a bit of worry too after a while, Pinkie wakes up followed by Keen and then Fluttershy, they are immediately hugged by their friends who are worried about their previous state. "what? what just happened to us?" Fluttershy asked Twilight was about to explain but Pinkie cut her off first. "The three of us were drugged with a chemical drug called Monsforgatulia which came from the Foralia flower so that Moon Dust could steal our geode, then you took the same flower from the Wallflower school garden and used it to heal us!". the others then looked at each other after hearing Pinkie's words. Pinkie then continued her sentence. "Now Kilic, Applejack, Trixie, Puffer and Rainbow Dash are fighting Moon Dust and his father who can turn into black smoke!", Pinkie still continued her sentence. "And Rarity, Flame, Valent, Vinyl and Flash are heading here to tell us about Moon Dust!" Not long after, Rarity, Flame, Valent, Vinyl and Flash came to the treatment room in a hurry, they then told Twilight and the others about Moon Dust who was the mastermind behind the drugging and theft of geodes. "See?, I just told you" ====================================== the smoke man ran towards Kilic to attack him, Kilic dodged to the side and deflected his attack, the man then turned into smoke and moved behind Kilic to attack the rear, Kilic immediately twisted his body and hit the man's hand to parry the attack. Puffer then jumped to attack the man, Kilic immediately acted quickly by holding the man's arm and allowing Puffer to give the man a punch to the wall. the man then immediately turned into smoke and moved towards Kilic and Puffer, Kilic dodged the smoke, the smoke then turned into human form and attacked Kilic. Kilic gives a high kick to the man's head, but the man holds Kilic's leg and attacks Kilic's other leg at the same time to knock him out, then throws Kilic into the Wall. the man then looked at Puffer signalling that it was his turn to be beaten by him. Puffer then began to give the Smoke man some punches, but the man always managed to parry them. Puffer then managed to give the man a hard punch, but the man returned with more punches and finally kicked the already defenceless Puffer. Applejack who saw that decided to intervene, she jumped up and hit the Smoke man. her punch was strong enough to destroy the wall beside her, Applejack chased the man and kept trying to beat him, but the blow often hit the ground or the wall there causing considerable damage. the man then turned into smoke and moved behind Applejack and directly hit her in the neck to knock her unconscious. just as he was about to take Applejack's geode, Trixie immediately threw a ball of smoke at him. after the smoke ball lost its effect, Trixie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Kilic and Puffer disappeared from there. Trixie probably uses the smoke ball to bring them away from the Smoke man, knowing that they can't win against him. the man then went to see Moon Dust who had been there, the two of them then hugged each other when Moon Dust called the man her father. the two of them turned into black smoke and grey smoke, then disappeared into the air to continue their plan. currently, they need 4 more geodes for their plan to work, they want to use all of The Rainboom's geodes to take out the Forgaur. Forgaur is a humanoid creature that eats the human memory, the creature has the ability to control shadows as their medium to move places, or as a tool of damage. According to legend, Forgaur was sent to the Shadow Realm by a female knight named Holofira. Iris Dust and her daughter Moon Dust wanted to get Forgaur out of the Shadow Realm. because they were formerly loyal followers of Forgaur, after Forgaur was sent to the Shadow Realm and defeated by Holofira. they are one of Forgaur's remaining loyal followers. they then tried to free Forgaur from the Shadow Realm, moreover Holofira had died about 250 years ago, making things easier for them. once Forgaur had been released from the Shadow Realm, things would probably be even more chaotic than before, and the other smoke humans or so-called Smokeron, who had previously hidden their where abouts would reappear and become Forgaur's loyal followers. > 6. Take Back What's Ours > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Treatment Room] "You guys have just fought with a man who can turn into smokes?!" Twilight screams Rainbow Dash agreed while wincing in pain as Wallflower treated her wound. after that Sunset came with a glass of tea and a cup of coffee, then Sunset gave the coffee to Kilic who was injured but refused to be treated as he say he can handle it. both of them then enjoyed their own drinks. Kilic turned to his brother and gave him a code of 'we need to talk'. both of them then immediately left the treatment room, but Sunset stopped them. "Where are you two going?" Sunset asked while raising her eyebrows "we'll just have private siblings talk" Sakin replied, they then left the room while Sunset was still confused but just let them on their own "Thanks, Trixie, getting us all out of there on that time is a great choice to do, we may have almost lost two more geodes" Puffer started the conversation "The Great and Powerful Trixie always knows what to do, that's the least I can do" Trixie replied with her usual style ====================================== [outside the treatment room] "Kilic?", Sakin raised his eyebrows and folded his arms in front of his chest. "What do you want to talk to me about?" Kilic then took a sip of his coffee. "What do you think?, should we tell the Chairman about the current problem?", Kilic took another sip of his coffee. "They might be able to give us some help," and Kilic took another sip of his coffee. "Are you crazy? our agency's identity is not to be revealed! the risk is just too dangerous to be ignored" Sakin screams while whispering "We can do it quietly and sneaky as usual you know, we're trained and used to it" Kilic took another sip of his coffee "Still no, after all, we can't involve The Agency in this kind of problem, we can handle it ourselves", Kilic then nodded at his older brother's explanation, after that they were about to enter the treatment room but Sakin stopped his brother. "And don't forget, be careful with Sunset, our identity could be known by her with just a physical touch" "What should I do if she finds out our identity?", Kilic raised his eyebrows. "Should I kill her or what?" Kilic's face is getting worried "No need, we'll think about that later", Sakin replied in a more relaxed tone. "Besides, I don't want my brother to kill my future sister-in-law himself", Sakin's smirk was hidden in his red mask, Kilic immediately spits coffee in his mouth hearing his brother's words and his face slightly reddened with an annoyed face at his brother. "Calm down there, we have more important things to do now" Sakin tapped his brother's shoulder. ====================================== [Treatment Room] Kilic and Sakin then returned to the room, but Kilic didn't forget to take another sip of his coffee. there the others had gathered and seemed to be talking about something. "So? is there anything we should do?" Kilic asked while raising an eyebrow and sipping his coffee again "I found out that the guy you guys are fighting is the Smokeron, Smokeron is a kind of creature that can turn into smoke", Twilight started explaining to them. "The color of Smokeron's smoke indicates how strong the Smokeron is, the darker the color of their smoke, the stronger they are." Twilight then took a short pause after which it continued to explain. "Smokeron used to be a loyal follower of Forgaur, after the Holofira Knights sent him to the Shadow Realm, Smokeron became aimless and chose to live their own lives" "Forgaur itself is a fairly large humanoid creature capable of consuming human memories, using shadows as damage or displacement", "while the Shadow Realm itself is a prison realm used to dispose of dangerous creatures that are very strong and almost undefeatable", " One of the ways to re-open the Shadow Realm is to place the seven geodes on each of the obelisks at the Phyrioh Temple, the temple that was once built by the Flame spirit as protection from people who want to expose her." everyone then nodded after listening to a long explanation from Twilight, after which Keen gathered everyone in the room to strategize how to take their geodes back and prevent the return of Forgaur. ====================================== [Phyrioh Temple] (1 day later) Phyrioh's Temple appears to be guarded by several white-smoky Smokerons, which seems to make it easier for Main 7 and the others to retrieve their Geodes. "Okay, everyone knows their place right??" Keen asked the others to make sure everyone then nodded and they started to continue their plan, some even brought their own equipment like Sakin and Kilic who each carried two wooden swords. Rainbow Dash carrying a football, Keen carrying his bow and Hance is with his robot H-4rc. After everything is set up, Applejack took a huge rock nearby and threw it towards the outside of the temple where several white Smokerons were on guard, the stone managed to get rid of several Smokerons and separated them. after that Trixie threw some smoke balls so they could get into action, Sakin and Kilic beat some of the guards and made way for the others, Rainbowh Dash kicked the ball at Smokeron's guards again and again, while Keen used his arrows but didn't kill and became an eye for them. they managed to overthrow several guards easily, all of them even looked so easy to them. and then they all immediately entered the temple to retrieve the geodes because it was most likely that Iris Dust brought their geodes there to open the Shadow Realm for Forgaur to be released. "C'mon y'all, we'll take back what's ours!" Applejack exclaimed as they entered the temple and that's where the real challenge starts little did they know, Iris Dust set a trap for them so that they come to him and give the geodes themself. > 7. Settle Up > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iris Dust emerged from the darkness and met three people near the geode placement obelisk, the three people were his own daughter Moon Dust, the agilest and sneaky Smokeron named Scar Dagger and Smokeron who would carry out the ritual, Wither Star. "Is everything set up?" Iris asked "All the traps are set up dad, the other Smokerons are on their places, ready for a surprise deadly charge" Moon replied "Okay, we'll start soon, you wait here Wither, the ritual will start soon enough", said Iris while placing the geodes on each obelisk, the obelisk then emitted a beam of light after placing the geodes on each, only 4 geodes remained. Iris then turned to Moon and Scar, signalling that they could start on their charge, Moon and Scar then turned into dark grey smoke and moved away into the darkness. ====================================== "This isn't good" Kilic mumbled, then turned to his brother. "What do you think brother?" Sakin shook his head sideways while closing his eyes indicating that he also felt that something strange, something isn't right. Rainbow Dash then tried to calm them both down. "relax!, we've come this far and nothing is too dangerous to us!, so far there are only some white smoked Smokerons that are easy to knock down" "That's the bad part, it's all too easy", Sakin rolled his eyes. "An easy thing like this could be a settled-up trap" "There's no such thing as a settled-up trap so far, there's nothing we need to wor-" Rainbow Dash's sentence was cut short as several grey-smoked Smokerons appeared from behind then ran towards them and prepared to charge. They then immediately ran to avoid the Smokerons, but there were so many of them and they were very fast. Trixie then threw a few more smokeballs at the smokerons to slow them down. "You guys go first, Trixie will hold them back" The others then nodded and dashed away from Trixie and the Smokerons towards their destination. But Flame, Valent, Flash, Puffer, Hance and his robot H-4rc chose to stay to help Trixie hold off the smokerons. The smoke from the Trixie slowly disappear, the Smokeron then immediately moved towards and attacked them. ====================================== the others were running as fast as they could towards where the obelisk was, but suddenly a Smokeron ran towards them and hit Kilic, Sakin then attacked that Smokeron, dealing a foot hit to the head. That Smokeron easily dodged back and readied his stance, Sakin then turned to the others and nodded then tilted his head in sign to tell them to go first and let the two of them finish this guy off. the others then immediately nodded and decided to continue going in the direction the obelisk was located. Kilic then got up and prepared his horses to fight Smokeron who turned out to be Scar Dagger, Scar then jumped at Sakin and gave a high kick, Sakin parried with his hand then Kilic attacked the man and was about to give him a hard punch right in the face. Scar avoids it by holding Kilic's hand, but Sakin uses this moment to hit Scar's stomach, Scar retreats while releasing Kilic but Kilic immediately gives a knee kick to Scar's face, Scar then gets up and wipes up the blood on his mouth, then gives a punch at them, Kilic and Sakin parry it together, Sakin then gives a high kick again towards Scar's face. but Scar gets down to avoid Sakin's leg and gives Kilic's stomach another hard punch then knocked Sakin down by kicking his other leg which was on the ground and immediately gave a hard kick to Kilic, lucky Kilic managed to block it with both arms. ====================================== Just like before, they were all close to where the obelisk was, but once again someone stopped them, it was Moon Dust, Rainbow Dash then chose to hold off Moon Dust as the others had done before. and the others immediately headed for the obelisk's existence. Rainbow Dash then kicks her football at Moon, Moon immediately shoots her stun gun and shoots the ball, destroying it. Moon then drops her stun gun and runs towards Rainbow Dash, Rainbow Dash then gives a side kick, and Moon dodges then giving a low punch to the chest where Rainbow Dash holds Moon's hand and diverts her hand down. Moon then bumped her head with Rainbow Dash's head making Rainbow Dash retreat back a few steps while holding her head, Moon then took this opportunity to immediately give Rainbow Dash a high kick. Rainbow Dash managed to dodge the kick by throwing herself to the side, apparently next to her was the stun gun that Moon had dropped earlier. Rainbow Dash took the stun gun and pointed it at Moon. Moon immediately kicked Rainbow Dash's hand and dropped the stun gun, Moon was about to step on Rainbow Dash but she rolled to the side and got up. but Moon already had a stun gun in her hand and was about to aim it at Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash smacked Moon's hand and dropped the stun gun, but Moon immediately kicked Rainbow Dash to the ground. Rainbow Dash then wakes up and prepares to attack Moon again. ====================================== "That's the obelisks!, we have to retrieve the geodes and maybe even destroy the obelisks if needed" Twilight pointed at the 7 pillar obelisks that were already in front of them. but suddenly, Iris Dust appeared from behind and greeted them all by clapping his hand, then immediately turned into smoke and headed towards them as fast as the wind. Rarity immediately used the crystal shield to stop the smoke. "Sunset, take Fluttershy, Pinkie and Wallflower to the obelisks and retrieve the geode, we will take care of this man," Twilight said, Sunset then nodded and quickly left with Fluttershy, Pinkie and Wallflower. "let's teach this man how to properly borrow our things," Rarity said "Ah will have his bones crushed" Applejack continued Rarity's words Iris Dust then immediately turned into black smoke and moved high then slid towards Applejack and transformed into human form while giving a flying high kick. Applejack dodged and used his super strong and hit Iris hardly. Iris is thrown back but manages to control himself, Rarity spawns some sharp crystals from the ground towards Iris, Iris dodges but Twilight moves the crystals towards him. Iris could dodge the crystals, but Applejack immediately grabbed one of the large crystals and threw it at Iris. Iris managed to dodge the attack but Applejack immediately ran towards him and dealt a continuous blow, took a fairly long and large crystal as her weapon and swung it at Iris. Iris dodged all the attacks, and then Twilight bring Applejack up and allowed Applejack to strike from top to bottom while swinging the crystal in her hand, Iris was about to run away but Rarity trapped Iris's body with the crystals around his body. Applejack then fell to the ground with his crystal swinging downwards, both the crystal in his hand and the crystal that trapped Iris's body broke apart, but Iris's body was nowhere to be found. they all then looked back to find Iris Dust had survived by quickly turning into black smoke just before Applejack was about to destroy it. "not bad girls, but still, I have everything under my control" Iris smirked then turned into black smoke and immediately moved towards them to attack. > 8. Seven Geodes > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scar protected his face with his arms from Kilic's low kick, then parried Sakin's side punch and bowed down to avoid Kilic's sweeping kick. Sakin gave a right side kick to Scar, and Scar jumped backwards to avoid it. Scar immediately held Kilic's hand with his own hand, but Kilic immediately turned to lock Scar's hand and gave Sakin a chance to give a hard kick in the stomach. Scar got up and wiped the blood from his mouth, then took out the karambit in each hand, preparing to attack Sakin and Kilic. Sakin and Kilic immediately knew this fight was going to be a bit bloody. Scar swung his arm towards Sakin. Sakin then parried with his arm while Kilic gave a side kick to Scar. Scar bowed down to avoid the kick while hurting Sakin and Kilic's legs, making them groan in pain. Scar then was about to kill Sakin by swinging his karambit towards Sakin's neck. Kilic immediately pushed Scar and hit Scar's arm. Scar then does a cross attack on Kilic towards the chest. Kilic manages to dodge the attack, but Scar manages to kick Kilic's previously injured leg and knock him down. After Kilic fell, Scar was about to stab his karambit into Kilic's chest, but Kilic managed to hold it in with his right hand, making his palm stabbed in the karambit. Kilic then groaned when Scar twisted his karambit to give Kilic a lot of pain. Scar then grinned, seeing Kilic groaning in the pain he gave. "KIILIIC!" Sakin shouted his brother's name and immediately helped his brother by kicking Scar's head, then was about to hit him but Scar managed to stab Sakin's left arm and twist it backwards. Scar was about to stab Sakin's chest but Sakin parried it aside. Unfortunately, Scar's other hand plunged his karambit into Sakin's left arm, which was protecting his chest. Sakin then pushed Scar in an attempt to release the Karambit stuck in his arms. Scar was about to make a jump attack but Kilic hit his back with his left hand. Scar then turned around and decided to attack Kilic instead, but Sakin immediately used this moment to kick Scar's leg and knock him down. Scar was caught off guard and Kilic hit the man's face with his left hand as hard as he could. Sakin kicked Scar's back and knocked him down, then kicked him hard in the head and caused that man to faint. Sakin then took the Karambits and hugged his brother, who was badly injured in his right hand. They then immediately moved towards where the obelisk was. "Are you okay, brother?" asked Sakin. "I'm fine," Kilic replied. "Great, let's go." Sakin helped his brother and moved away from that place. Sunset, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Wallflower Blush arrived where the obelisks were. Pinkie then tried to take her geode from one of the obelisks, but the obelisk instead hurt Pinkie's hand with some kind of dark energy. "How can we retrieve the geode if touching it causes it to hurt us?" Sunset starts to think about how to remove the geode while Pinkie holds her hand in pain. "Simple, you can't and you don't." A voice answered Sunset's question from behind. The source of the voice revealed itself. It was Wither Star. Wither then cast the spell 'áplose to klma tou skótous, kai édese me dyskola ton echthró(spread the vine of darkness, and tie the enemy hard).'. After Wither cast the spell, some dark vine immediately flowed towards them and tied them all together. Wither then came and took Sunset's geode and placed it on the other obelisk. Rainbow Dash gave Moon a high kick. She then parried the kick and gave a small punch to Rainbow Dash. Rainbow held Moon's hand and pulled her to hit her head with her head. Both of them then rubbed their heads, but Moon attacked Rainbow Dash first. Rainbow Dash couldn't dodge Moon's attack. She then dropped Rainbow Dash and tried to strangle her. Rainbow Dash desperately held Moon's hand, preventing her from touching Rainbow Dash's neck. But suddenly the pressure loosened, and Moon fell to the side with darts on her back. Rainbow Dash turned to see Sakin using a stun gun to knock Moon down. Sakin and Kilic then approached Rainbow Dash, and Sakin gave Rainbow Dash his hand to help her. "Are you okay?" Sakin asks Rainbow Dash responded as she walked away from the Obelisk, followed by Sakin and Kilic. Puffer hits the Smokeron in front of him, then gives him a knee kick and knocks him down. After that, Puffer approached Valent and Flame, who were fighting another Smokeron. Valent then held the Smokeron and let Flame finish him off with a hard kick on the head. Flash is still fighting with a Smokeron, but the Smokeron manages to knock him out and wants to give him a hard kick, but Trixie and Hance appear with H-4rc. H-4rc then immediately grabbed Smokeron's head and held it, allowing Hance to hit Smokeron. Flash then ended Smokeron with a hard kick in the chest. Trixie threw the last smoke bomb she carried. After that, Trixie, Flash, Hance, and H-45c immediately ran towards Puffer, Valent, and Flame. Come on, we have to get out of here! Trixie has run out of her smoke bombs! " They then rushed away from there to the obelisks, but eight Smokerons appeared in front of them. Immediately, the smoke from Trixie's smoke bomb disappeared and revealed another ten Smokerons. They were all surrounded by quite a lot of Smokerons. Suddenly, Vinyl Scratch came with her car and hit some Smokerons with her car and did a little drift. Keen then also came by shooting 2 arrows at one Smokeron, and then there's Big Mac and Bulk Biceps, who then helped beat up some Smokerons. "YEAAAH! Reinforcements are coming! " Flame is ecstatic. "Woah, I didn't know you had a backup." Hance smirks. "I always have a plan B. I saw those Smokerons just come out of nowhere and enter the temple in the moments right after you guys," Keen explained. "Now come on! We have to go to the obelisk! " Puffer spoke, and they all immediately headed towards their destination. Iris was about to give Applejack a hard punch, but Iris dodged by turning into smoke and moving in another direction. There, Rarity threw some crystals at Iris, and Iris managed to dodge all the crystals. Iris then kicks at Applejack,, causing the floor to crack. Iris then gives a high kick at Applejack, but Applejack bows down and deals a super punch to Iris' chest and throws him to the wall. Iris then rises from the cracks of the wall and goes to attack Applejack, but Rarity once again raises crystals from the ground towards Iris. Iris jumps to avoid the crystals, but Twilight immediately throws the crystals upwards towards Iris. Iris turned to smoke to avoid all the crystals and get down, but Rarity immediately threw a few crystals at him and Twilight threw the cracks in the wall earlier. Iris still dodged all the attacks, until finally Applejack appeared from behind and gave Iris a super hard punch right in the face. Iris got up and wiped the blood from his mouth, then prepared to attack them again, but Rarity immediately crystallized almost all of Iris's body. Twilight then moved some of Rarity's previous sharp crystal shards and pointed them at Iris. Applejack walked over to Iris and clenched her fists. "It's over now; give back the geodes now!" Applejack is bluffing Iris. "Or what?" Iris grins. "Or Ah doesn't mind breaking your bones and making you regret it."Applejack replied to the question. Or maybe you're the one who should be regretting everything," Iris grinned as he burst out laughing, and a few black vines moved towards the three of them and tied them, taking their geodes. "NO!" Applejack, Rarity, and Twilight shouted. Iris then immediately came out of the crystal by turning himself into smoke. The black vine that took the geode then immediately gave the geode to Iris, and Iris took the geode. Wither Star then appeared and informed Iris that the ritual could start now. Iris then smiled and the two of them immediately went to the obelisk. "Now that we have all seven geodes, we will soon be able to free Forgaur!" Iris shouted while raising his hand and immediately went to where the obelisk was. > 9. The Shadow Realm > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iris and Wither arrived at the obelisk's position. As Iris set the three geodes on their own obelisks, the seven obelisks released dark energy and were connected to one another. while Sunset and the others were all bound and struggling to break free. "Now, Wither, you can carry out the Shadow Realm ritual," Iris said to him. He moved toward the temple's center between the obelisks after giving a nod. Vasleio ton Skión, me eptá geódous, me eptá prgous, anoxte tin pli ston kósmo tis fylaks![ (With seven geodes, seven towers, and seven gates, open the portal to the prison world, The Shadow Realm! " Wither then began casting his spells as black and white circles appeared above the temple's ceiling, growing and combining to form a portal. "What should we do now? Iris has already had all seven geodes, which means he will be able to open the portal to the Shadow Realm and release Forgaur! " Along with Applejack and Rarity, Twilight is trying to remove the dark vines from her body. "Don't worry, I'll let you go!" Rainbow Dash then appears and uses Scar's karambit, which Sakin gave her, to cut the dark vines that bound them and free them. "Rainbow Dash! I'm so glad you're here! " Twilight is happy to see Rainbow Dash. "Glad to see ya, partner!" Applejack is happy, too. Rainbow Dash finally managed to free Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity just as Sakin arrived with Kilic, blood still spilling from their hands. Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity were worried as they saw their condition. "What just happened to you all, darling?" Rarity asked nervously. "We're wounded, that's all," Kilic replied shortly. Twilight then informed them about how Iris managed to get all seven geodes and how he was about to open the Shadow Realm's portal. Right after that, the Shadow Realm's portal gates began to open. "C'mon, y'all, we need to stop him before things get even worse." Applejack rushed over, followed by the others. Flame and the others were walking towards the obelisk when Flame felt a terrible burning in his chest, as if he were on fire. His eyes were also slightly reddened, and his mouth released a thin layer of orange smoke. Flame screamed in pain. "Flame? What's wrong? " The others became worried as Valent asked his close friend. "I'm okay, nothing has happened to me," Flame stated emphatically. "But you're screaming in pain." "Are you sure you're all right?" "I'M Fine!" Flame's deep, loud, and harsh voice startled Valent and the others. Oh, I'm so sorry. I have no idea what just happened to me. " Flame's voice returned to normal, as did the color of his eyes. Flame appeared to be rubbing his head, only because he was confused by what he had just done. We'll talk about it later, Flame. We have more important things to do. Valent nodded, grabbing his best friend's shoulder. They all went on their way. As Wither continued to cast the spell, the seven geodes in their seven obelisks began to split and shine before releasing energy into the portal, increasing it. "IRIS! Let's finish what we started TODAY! " Iris turned around as he heard Kilic's voice, and he spotted Kilic standing not far from the obelisk. "If that's what you want, come here and I'll beat you," Iris answered with a grin. Kilic then ran towards Iris to attack despite his damaged leg. Kilic delivered a blow with his left hand that Iris deflected, before pushing him and preparing for another duel. While Kilic was fighting Iris, Wither had to focus on casting his magic to open the Shadow Realm's portal gate, and that's when Twilight and Rarity secretly went towards the obelisk to save Sunset and the others using Scar's karambit. While Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Sakin distracted Wither from finishing the process of opening the Shadow Realm portal, Rainbow Dash ran towards Wither and was going to kick him, but Wither easily avoided the kick by turning into smoke. Once Twilight and Rarity had freed Sunset and the others, they all hugged for a while before going to help Rainbow Dash and the others distract Wither and stop the ritual. Iris managed to knock Kilic down by kicking his damaged leg. He then smirked at Kilic. "What's wrong?" Iris seems to have left you with a quite serious wound on your hand. Iris stepped on Kilic's right hand and made him groan in pain after saying that. When Sakin heard that, he quickly rushed to help his brother, and Rainbow Dash chose to side with Sakin against Iris. Kilic was still groaning in pain as Iris stepped on his right hand. Kilic tried pushing Iris's foot away with his left, but it was useless. Iris burst out laughing as he saw Kilic in pain. Suddenly, Sakin arrived and punched Iris in the face while jumping, causing Iris to fall. Sakin then put out his hand to help Kilic stand up. Wither used explosive magic to launch Applejack, Twilight, Rarity, Wallflower, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Sunset away from the obelisk. As Wither noticed the portal weakening, he grumbled and continued to cast his spell. To prevent anybody from approaching him, he cast a spell that let no creature touch him for a short time. "What? What else is he doing right now? " Sunset asks "I'm not sure, but it sounds like a spell to prevent any creature from touching him." Twilight replied to Sunset's question. The Shadow Realm portal was formed just after seven geodes gathered and surrounded it, ready to take Forgaur out of the prison realm. A strong wind blew out of the Shadow Realm portal gate, making it impossible for them to approach Wither and stop him, or at least touch him. (with anger desires, vengeance born from the elders, free the glorious king Forg-)" An arrow wounded Wither's shoulder, breaking the spell. Moreover, the portal began to destabilize and released some foggy green lights. Keen was the one who shot Wither. He arrived with the others. "I don't think it's a good thing," Keen stated as he noticed the portal becoming unstable. "What? What have you done? You have no idea what will happen next, you fool! " Wither cursed as the gateway began to destabilize and release glowing green gas. Iris was parrying Rainbow Dash's kick when he noticed the portal that should have opened and released the Forgaur instead became unstable and released a glowing green fog. Rainbow Dash immediately came charging at him with a high kick to the head, but Iris grabbed Rainbow Dash's leg. "Listen! I've had enough of you sabotaging my plans till now! " Iris then crouched down and kicked Rainbow Dash's leg, causing her to fall. Iris finished his sentence by kicking Rainbow Dash in the stomach as hard as he could. Rainbow Dash screamed in pain. Iris was about to approach the obelisk to find out what was exactly going on when Sakin grabbed his arm and launched his fist in the face. Iris then angrily changed into smoke and went behind Sakin to strike him from behind. But Kilic threw a kick into his back. Sakin then pushed Iris back and let Kilic kick the man in the back again. Sakin then launched a punch in the man's face and held him. Rainbow Dash then stood up while holding her stomach and approached Iris, who was being held by Sakin and Kilic. Rainbow Dash then threw the hardest punch she could ever do. I punched the man in the face, knocking him down. Keen and the others then joined Twilight and the others. They gathered to watch what would happen to the portal. The portal kept spinning wildly and releasing a green glow fog. "Big Mac? How'd ya get here? " Applejack was shocked to see his brother there. Flame's body began to transform as the green fog glowed, with the appearance of horns on his head and fingers that started to grow into claws. A thin, fiery orange mist covered his body. Flame's body started reacting furiously. The reaction of Flame's body as a glowing green fog blasted out of the portal confused the others even more. Then the glowing green fog started to stop coming out of the portal, as well as Flame's body, which stopped reacting and stopped emitting a light orange mist of heat. His body started to return to normal. But suddenly the portal exploded and made everything there, located not far from the obelisk. The glowing green fog began to leave the portal, as did Flame's body, which stopped reacting and released a light orange mist of flame. His body started returning to normal. But then the portal exploded, pulling everything not far from the obelisk. The seven Geodes then approached their owners, including Rainbow Dash, who had just arrived with Sakin and Kilic, and the seven of them regained their abilities after their Geodes returned. "Damn it!" "You ruined everything!" Wither stands up and casts a spell over them all, but Rarity protects them all with a crystal shield. Then Applejack leaps in and punches him down. "At least it's all over now." Rainbow Dash said "Now let's go home. "We need to treat Kilic's wound," Sakin said. "Hey! But you're also wounded! " Kilic answered. "Your wound is worse," Sakin said to Kilic. You've got three wounds! I only have two. " "At least none of my wounds are fatal." "You were stabbed in the arm quite deeply! I think it is also fatal. " "At least I can still..." Sakin's words came to an end when Sunset covered their mouths. "Both of you are hurt. Simply said, both of you will get treatments. " Sunset intervenes on their behalf. "Yeah, let's go home!" said Rainbow Dash. "YEAAH!" Bulk Biceps scream The glowing green fog that had earlier escaped from the portal began to reappear and assemble at some time after they had all left the temple. The fog then fused to form a person. The person grinned as he looked down at his hands and feet. "Now that we've gained freedom, it's time to have a little fun." The person then turned around and left, laughing loudly.
