The girls and the turtles encounter a new person, with a unique form of justice....or rather PUNISHMENT.
The Turtles and the Rainbooms had been enjoying their as usual. There was not much crime to fight and had enjoyed doing what they did best at CHS.
At the same time, a man with nothing to lose just so happens to arrive in Canterlot City. And he has a form of justice that puts him in conflict with the our heroes.
He is Frank Castle. He is the Punisher. Where justice ends...Punishment begins!
(Ps, this Punisher is the Jon Bernthal version)
I hope you enjoy and let me know if the story is great! I know the Punisher is mostly an Mature rated criteria, but I will do everything I can to make it more Teen rated. This is also my first time doing an Equestria Ninja Girls story and I really like this franchise.
In an unknown building, an man who wore a black armored vest and had black tactical military pants looked at a door. His face was unseen and he had been holding a large rifle. He pulled out the magazine and it showed a bullet.
"Last round." The figure said
The unknown person put the magazine back in the rifle and hid in the dark room. The door opened and a bunch of armed men and woman walked in the room. They each looked around to see if anything was amiss.
"You see him?" A male asked.
"Nothing here." Another male said, looking at an open door.
"Clear." A female said, looking at an empty bar table.
"Nothing here either." Another female said, looking around an dark corner.
As they walked, an sound was heard on the floor. The leader looked and saw one of the females stepping on something. It appeared to be an empty rifle magazine. The leader then turned around and saw a figure with a large rifle aimed at him.
BANG!
The rifle blast knocked the leader on the ground. The figure came into view and the other armed thugs were left speechless and scared as he threw the rifle at another thug and used it as an club against the others. As the figure attacked, he knocked them down and fired two pistols at them all until there was silence....
The figure stepped out of the shadows and revealed himself more clearly.
As soon as the guards were dealt with, the man grabbed one of the thugs and began to punch him in the gut.
"What's going on here?"
"Up yours Punisher!" The thug replied.
The man, now known as Punisher, only punched him harder in the face, making him cough in pain.
"I don't know! I just follow orders." The thug said
The Punisher said "If you lie again, it'll be your leg next. "
The armed man put his foot on the thug's right foot, pressing down hard on his leg.
"AAAAGGGHHH! Ok! OK! It's because of a special delivery in the other room for the Boss! I don't know why or what it is! It's in a door that says Keep Out in that room!" The Thug confessed, pointing to a door on the right.
With that said, Punisher knocked the thug down with kick to the face and made his way to the place in question, keeping his weapons armed and ready in case of any other surprises. Reaching the door, Punisher slowly opened the it and looked to see if there was any other forms of danger or thugs.
After a few seconds, Punisher looked around the room, there were crates everywhere, but they all appeared to be empty. As Punisher continued to look around the area, there was a large crate that was not opened with a tag saying FRAGILE.
"Guess, they must have been busy loading cargo. Only question is what kind?" Punisher said in his thoughts.
Grabbing a crowbar, Punisher used to pry open the crate. As soon as he did, what was inside confused him.
"What is this?" The vigilante said
Inside appeared to be an portal device of a sort with a large ring like entrance. Near the right side of it appeared to be a keypad like device. Punisher only looked and said
"From the looks of it, it could be an interdimensional portal or teleporter. But why would the New York Yakuza have this? Something else must be going on." Punisher said questionably.
Punisher then looked at the key pad and saw a button that said ON. With nothing to lose, he pressed the button.....but nothing happened.
"Guess it must be unfinished or too old.......wait." Punisher thought, noticing rumbling sounds
The portal began to rumble and shake and start up. The entrance began to glow and a blue portal appeared in the entrance and began to light up.
"It actually works?!" Punisher said in surprise.
However, as the machine continued running, it began to slowly suck the Punisher in...
(Unknown location)
Punisher began to wake up slowly and get back up on his feet. He looked and saw himself in an alley. He looked around before leaving. As soon as he left the alley, the sight surprised him.
What stood in front of the vigilante was a town that appeared to be relatively similar to New York, but moderately less hostile or crowded. Punisher walked around and noticed some signs saying either Canterlot City or Sweet Shops Cafe.
"Looks like that portal device sent to me to another city. This place looks like a small town, it can't be part of New York. Wherever or whatever this place is, I need answers." Punisher thought.
As Punisher continued to look around, some of the people in the area gave him looks, which he ignored.
"Help!" A voice shouted
Punisher turned and saw two masked thieves running out a jewelry shop.
"They stole my jewelry!" A man said pointing at the thieves.
The Punisher, seeing what was happening, ran as fast as he could in pursuit at the two thieves
With a quick dash, he lunged and kneed the first thief in the face and roundhouse kicked him to the ground.
"Hey!" The second thief said.
The second thief tried to punch or kick the vigilante, but Punisher deflected all his blows, and grabbed his leg, pulling him and headbutting him in the face. This knocked the thief back and Punisher finished him off with a savage blow to the throat.
After the thugs were dealt with, Punisher grabbed their bags of stolen items and returned them to the man.
"Oh thank you sir." The man said
"No problem. But one question, do you know where I am?"
"Oh, this is Canterlot City, why? Are you new?" The man said
"Yes, and is this a city in New York or somewhere else?" The Punisher asked
"Um no, this is a city way apart from New York City." The man replied.
"Thanks." Punisher replied, and he then left.
In CHS, a group of seven girls had been in a music room practicing with their instruments. They were known as the Rainbooms, Twilight Sparkle, Sunset Shimmer, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Applejack, . As they did, a group of four boys in different colored clothes came in and saw them. These turtles were Leonardo, Raphael, Michaelangelo and Donatello.
"Hey girls." Leo said
"Hey guys." Sunset said.
"What's happening?" Rainbow Dash said
"Well, we're trying this new invention of Donnie's that can disguise us into human form. And right now, it's working pretty great." Mikey said
"Hey, where's April?" Twilight asked
"She said she's coming, apparently something important came up." Raphael said
Punisher, meanwhile continued to explore the city, looking around stores, shops and other buildings.
"Whatever this place is, at least it's less hostile." Punisher said.
As he walked, CHS came into view, the vigilante only looked at the school with confusion.
"So far, I can't think of any other place that has clues here of New York or any criminal activity for that matter. I guess I may as well look here to find some clues, if anything at all." Punisher thought.
He made his way into CHS, ignoring the looks he was given....not realizing two people saw him. The first was a red haired girl in a pony tail, her name was April O'Neil.
"Who is that? I've never seen him before. And why does he have that gear?" April said
The second person however, was in a shadowy corner and his face was unseen.
"Looks like Frankie made his way here too....I'll see him soon." The figure said, before leaving.
The Punisher had made his way into the school of Canterlot High. While he noticed some students in the area looking at him, he ignored them and continued to make his way around.
"Is it me? Or is this whole school like it came out a kids book?" Punisher said
As the Punisher continued to look around, he had been spotted by a familiar pink haired girl, who gasped upon seeing him.
GASP!
"What the-" Punisher said, before he was tackled on the ground.
The person revealed herself and said in a quick tone.
Punisher grabbed the pink haired girls lips and got up slowly off the ground.
"Kid, take it easy. One question at a time. And when I let go of your lips, what to tell me is what to tell me, OK?"
The girl nodded and Punisher let go of her lips, she then spoke again.
"My name is Pinkie Pie! Are you a new student at CHS?"
Punisher was about to speak, but then realized of he told her what he was doing, it would rise suspicion. With a quick breath, he regained his composure and said.
"Hi Pinkie Pie, my name is Frank. Frank Castle. And no, i'm just visiting."
"Wow! Do you like parties Frankie?" Pinkie asked giddily.
Frank only gave a look at her innocent smile, he was tempted to say no, but didn't want to hurt her feelings, nor bring any suspicion to himself. He only gave a light groan and said
"Sure Pinkie. I like parties. Just not rowdy ones."
"Okie dokie lokie!" Pinkie said before dashing off.
Frank only gave a look of utter confusion, before he continued on his way. As he did, he walked down the halls and heard some sounds from behind.
"Someone's behind me. Following." Frank thought.
Castle turned to a corner right hallway and hid in a dark corner. Hearing footsteps, Castle saw the person get closer and looked closer to identify them. He saw it was a girl with red hair in a ponytail.
"Huh? Where is he?" The girl said
Hiding behind her, Frank grabbed her by the neck and said
"Who are you? Why are you following me?"
The girl flipped over cartwheels back and pulled out a fan. Frank got in a fighting stance and got ready to defend himself.
The girl attempted to kick, punch or slash at Castle with her fan, but he dodged each time. Castle, seeing an opening, kicked her back with a blow to her chest and downward circle kick. He then put his boot to her throat and asked in a darker, more serious tone.
"Why are you following me? And who are you?"
"My name is April O'Neil. I was following you because i've never seen you around the city or school before."
"And?" Frank asked
"I thought you may need some help." April added
Frank looked at her and after a few seconds, let her go and said "Sorry."
"It"s fine. But where did you learn to fight like that?" April asked, getting up
"I've had some practice back in my home." Frank answered.
"Home? From where?" April asked
"New York City." Frank answered
"Really? Me and my friends are from New York." April replied
"Friends?" Frank asked, then the bell rang.
"I'll talk to you later, bye Frank." April said, leaving.
Frank, meanwhile had left the hallway and made his way out of the school. As he did, he made his way through the parking lot, until he heard a voice coming from across.
"So, did you guys do anything today?"
Frank crouched and hid behind one of the cars in the lot. He looked up slowly and saw it was April, she was talking to seven girls and four boys near the entrance of the school.
"Well not much April, we just had to deal with the usual." The girl with glasses and dark purple hair (Twilight Sparkle) said
"Have you or the others done anything interesting?" The girl with rainbow hair (Rainbow Dash) asked
"Not much to tell really." The boy with a red hat and red football jacket (Raphael) replied
"Well, I did meet someone inside CHS. His name is Frank." April notified.
"You met Frankie too?!" Pinkie Pie asked
"Frankie?" Applejack asked
"Yeah, when I followed, he thought I was trying to hurt him and I defended myself. It turns out he is actually a good fighter and can keep himself up well." April added
"Looks like I left an impression." Frank said to himself.
As Frank got up slowly, he stealthily avoided being noticed by anybody else in the area. He slowly got up and made his way hear the front entrance of CHS. This hadn't gone unnoticed by the gang, with April seeing Frank as he approached.
"Hey, there he is. "
The heroes looked and noticed the skull vest wearing vigilante and gave different reactions. While the turtles in human disguise gave looks of slight distrust and curiosity, the girls and April on the other hand were slightly scared or by his gruff and threatening demeanor. Castle looked to them and said
"Hi April."
"Hey Frank, how's your visit going?" April asked politely
"Not bad, pretty good compared to New York. You know aside from mobs of people and cars swarming the road. " Frank replied with a tone of dry humor.
"True. By the way, these are my friends." April said, motioning to her friends.
"Hi. I'm Twilight Sparkle."
"Ahm Applejack."
"Names Rainbow Dash."
"I'm Rarity, darling."
"You've already met me Frankie!" Pinkie said
"My name is Sunset Shimmer."
"I...I'm Fluttershy."
"Names Mikey."
"You can call me Donnie."
"I'm Raph."
"My name is Leo."
Frank nodded and said politely "it's nice to see you all."
The others gave smiles, with Mikey asking.
"So Frank, since your new in town. Do you wanna hang with us?"
"Sure kid. Just make sure it's not to crowded or weird." Frank replied
"No promises Frankie! " Pinkie Pie replied
This made the others roll their eyes in amusement.
"By the way, do you know where I can find an apartment? I have to stay in the city a bit" Frank asked.
"Yeah, I know a few places." Sunset said, pulling out her phone.
(Elsewhere)
In an unknown area, it was in a dark building. There were no lights on and the area seemed to be abandoned. There was an unknown figure talking on the phone.
"The Punisher is what?" A voice on the phone said
"Yes, I know it's odd, but it happened in the tower owned by the Yakuza." The figure said
"What else happened?" The voice asked again
"Aside from checking all around New York, no trace of The Punisher has been found. Something ia going on."
"Indeed, find out anything suspicious ans report it ASAP." The vouce on the phone said
Frank had reached the apartment building with Sunset Shimmer. The two had managed to reach the apartment complex and found an empty apartment.
"Well, here it is Frank." Sunset said
"Thanks Sunset." Frank acknowledged
Sunset let Castle look around the apartment. Inside was at least a kitchen, living room, bathroom amd two bedrooms.
"Not much, but it'll do." Frank said
Castle left the apartment and closed the door. Sunset then said while pulling put a key.
"Oh! And before you go. This key is what unlocks your apartment door."
Frank took the key and said "Thanks. Now let's go hang out with your friends."
Sunset nodded and led Frank out the building to meet the others. As soon as they left, the others were near the entrance.
"So, did you show Frank the place he's staying?" Twilight asked
Sunset nodded, and Mikey then said in excitement "Well then, Let's go!"
The group was walking around the area with Frank, showing him different areas. The first place they had went to was the Canterlot Mall. They had gone into different shops, with the first being a clothing store. Frank was trying different clothes, ranging from a black tank top and black jeans to wearing a shirt that conveniently, had his signature skull symbol along with black sneakers.
"Guess these should do." Frank said
"Yes. That way you can have more, cleaner and better clothing." Rarity said
They group began to head into another store, this time it was an arcade.
"Aw right, this is my kind of store!" Mikey said with happiness.
The girls and boys each began to either play games, eat food or play with the crane machines. Frank however, only looked at them play on the arcade machines, as he began to get flashes in his mind.
Frank saw a merry go round with children happily shouting or in joy, but after a few seconds the joyful sounds turned to screams and there was blood on the merry ground as gunfire was heard. Frank only began to look in grief as the bloody covered ride continued to move while the music played.
"Frank?.....Frank?!......FRANK!...."
Frank snapped out of his daze and looked at who shouted his name, be looked and saw it was Sunset, who was giving him a look of concern along with the others.
"Are you ok? I tried to call you but you phased out for a bit." Sunset asked
"I'm fine. Just got a bit distracted." Frank replied
"You sure dude? You looked like you were gonna black out." Rainbow Dash questioned
"Yeah, don't worry about it." Frank reassured
The others were still a little bit concerned about him, but they decided to leave it alone for the time being.
"Well ok then. Let's go somewhere else." Twilight said.
The others nodded and left the arcade. After a few minutes, they had began to leave the mall and began to make their way out to the front entrance. As soon as they did, Frank asked
"What now?"
"Well, we can show you around some shops in the city." Fluttershy asked
"Sure. Beats laying down doing nothing." Frank agreed
The girls and boys nodded and began to lead Frank across Canterlot City. Rarity pointed to a specific shop and said
"That shop you see there is called the Carousel Boutique. It's a clothing shop I own where I create new dresses or clothes for clients ad customers."
"Thanks. By the way, now that you mention it, can you maybe repair my shirt?" Frank asked, pointing to the one he's currently wearing that had scratches and tears under his vest.
"Of course darling, just follow me and hand it to me when we're at the boutique. Can you all give us a minute?" Rarity asked.
The girls and boys nodded and let the two do their business as Frank nodded also and followed her. She soon opened the door and as soon as she and Frank entered, he pulled off his shirt slowly along with his vest.
Rarity took the ripped and torn shirt and said "Oh no no no this won't do!"
She began to sew and fix the shirt in the areas it had torn, mostly by the chest area. After a few hours, Rarity was finished and handed him his now fixed shirt, it not only looked more dark black, but the skull had been shown to be slightly more bigger and curved.
"Here you are darling, I also fixed the skull design and made it fit your style." Rarity said
"Thanks Rarity, how much do I owe you?" Frank asked
"Oh think nothing of it dear, you are a new friend after all." Rarity said with a smile.
"Friends.....haven't had those in a while." Frank thought to himself.
"Anyway, should we head out to meet the others?" Rarity asked, with Frank nodding.
The gang then showed Castle another shop which looked to be a bakery of a sort.
"And this is the Sweet Shoppe. This is where I work and where we usually hang out." Pinkie said.
They gang entered the shop and sat at some tables. They each had different orders. Mikey, Pinkie, Rarity, Sunset and Fluttershy had different cupcakes while Twilight, Leo, Raph, Donnie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Frank had ordered milkshakes. As they ate, they had talked about each other, Frank had given a look of somewhat surprise but unfazed.
"So you guys are a band called the Rainbooms? And you have alot of friends both here and in New York?" Frank asked
"Pretty much." April said with a shrug.
"And we tend to go through alot of shenanigans." Twilight added
Frank only laughed a bit with amusement and said "I can kinda relate. I even had to deal with some troublemakers sometimes."
Fluttershy murmured something, which Frank noticed.
"You say something Fluttershy?" Frank asked
"I asked if you like animals Mr. Frank." Fluttershy asked
"Yes, I do like some animals. I even have a dog named Max." Frank answered, pulling out a photo.
"Oh my! He's adorable!" Fluttershy said, looking at the picture of Max.
"Yeah, he may look like an hardened mutt, but he has a soft side underneath." Frank said
The group continued to converse before the door to the Sweet Shoppe opened and 3 boys came in.
While they had similar clothing, the left male had brown hair and light gamboge skin with green eyes. The boy in the middle had dark grey like skin and light gray hair with blue eyes while the right male had gray skin and gray hair, which covered his eyes.
They had seen the Rainbooms at a table and gave smirks. The middle one said
"Well hello Rainbores!"
The girls looked and gave scowls as Rainbow Dash said with annoyance and disgust
"Hello again Dumb-bell."
"How are you and your freaky friends doing?" The left boy asked mockingly
"None of your beeswax ya mooch!" Raph said
"Hey, we're talking to the hotties! Not you losers!" The right bully said
The situation began to take notice by other customers, who watched the scene. Frank only looked at them with menacing and cold dead eyes and said
"Leave them alone.....NOW."
The bullies only gave looks of amusement as Dumb-bell said with a mocking tone and smirk
"Oh yeah? Or what old man?"
".....I'll break your legs and faces." Frank said in a cold dead tone.
"Oh yeah? Break this!" Dumb-bell taunted
Dunb-bell tried to punch Frank, but he dodged and grabbed his arm before twisting it, making him scream in agonizing pain. Frank then threw him over his back onto the floor and kicked him in the face. The other two tried to attack, but Frank evaded or blocked their blows.
The vigilante kicked the second bully in the gut and then furiously landed a hand chop his throat and then grabbed him and threw him face first at the third bully. Frank then countered the third bully's punch by pulling his arm and twisted it from behind and slammed his face onto a table with extreme force.
The scene shocked the customers while the 3 troublemakers were on the ground. Until the customers all began to slowly clap with applause. The Rainbooms and the turtles in human disguise gave looks of surprise and amazement at how he dealt with them.
"Dude. That was AWESOME!" Mikey complimented.
"How did you do that?" Donnie asked
"I've told you before, I had some practice." Frank reminded
"Well, wherever you learned to fight, can you teach us too?" Pinkie asked
"Sure, in the meantime, let's keep hanging out."
The group nodded and continued to talk and eat. Unbeknownst to them, they were beibg observed by someone with a target on his forehead, who left upon seeing Frank...
"I see him. Orders?" The man asked, on his phone.
"Don't attack yet, until The Punisher and those children he's with head somewhere. I will send someone, for now keep observing and report to me." The caller replied...
The next day, after Frank had spent the day hanging out with the Rainbooms and the boys, he had began to slowly get up from his sleep and looked at the clock.
"Morning already?" Frank said
Frank began to get off his bed and get ready to wake up. He then looked at his closet and wore his signature black shirt with his skull vest along with his tactical pants and shoes. As soon as he did, he pulled out a black half mask and said
"Well, if I'm gonna go patrolling, may as well go out unnoticed."
He placed the mask on his mouth like a half face mask, tied it back and left the apartment and closed the door, locking it. He then began to leave the building.
Now outside, Castle walked around the city and thought to himself with a frown.
"Even though I'm in a different universe. That doesn't mean I won't let the scum in the world walk free and hurt someone here. It's time for the Punisher.....to punish the guilty."
As Frank walked, he began to look around and saw different shops and buildings around the city.
"Come on, again?!" A female voice said in annoyance
Frank turned and saw a older woman near a dark blue car. She had light skin and dark and light blue hair while wearing a purple shirt with a white collar with a moon symbol along woth dark blue pants and shoes with a purple and white design. Her car's tire had been flattened and she had trouble trying to fix it.
Castle saw the woman struggle to fix the car wheel and began to walk to her.
"Need a hand?" Frank asked
The woman looked up and saw the skull wearing man giving a look of curiosity.
"Yes please, my car has a flat tire and I need help getting to work." The woman said
Frank saw the car had a flat tire on the left and began to remove the screws first holding the wheel and slowly removed it. He then removed the tire cover and grabbed the one the woman was trying to put on and slowly put it on the wheel. After that had been done, Frank proceeded to reattach tge wheel back in place and screwed it back in.
"Thanks for the help." The woman said
"No problem." Frank said
"Oh, by the way, my name is Luna." The woman, now known as Luna, told Frank
"Names Frank." Castle replied
"Thank you Frank." Luna said with a smile.
Castle nodded in response, and he made his way. As soon as Frank continued to walk, he only thought to himself.
"Ok, even though I may be in another dimension of some kind similar to my world, that doesn't mean I won't stop searching for answers or stop the scum that walk around hurting the innocent. But first.....I need some tools."
Frank only continued to walk his way down the street...until a crash was heard.
"Sounds like trouble." Frank said, quietly heading to the source of the sound.
The Punisher slowly walked and saw the sound came from. The sound lead him to an nearby alleyway, where he saw at surprising sight.
A woman and her daughter were surrounded by at least 5 thugs.
"Hand over your stuff ya little brats!" One thug said threatningly.
"No way jerks!" The woman said defiantly, holding her daughter.
"Oh yeah?! Your funeral!" Another thug said, pulling out a gun.
Seeing the scene, Castle stealthily walked behind the thugs and grabbed a brick. He then smashed one thugs head with it.
"What the?!" Another thug shouted in shock.
Punisher then roundhouse kicked a thug on the left and threw him into another. The other two saw and the 4th thug said
"Get him!"
They charged at him together, but Punisher jumped over them and grabbed them by the back of their shirts and smashed their heads together. He finished the dazed remaining thugs by smashing them to the hard ground and savagely kicking them hard in the head to the ground. The Punisher grabbed their weapons and went over to the mother and daughter.
"You two ok?" Punisher asked
The little girl hugged the vigilante and the woman gave a grateful look to the Punisher.
"Thank you mister!" The child said in tears of happiness.
"Your a hero! Thank you so much!" The woman said with a smile
"You both should get home, it's not safe here." Punisher comforted
They nodded and left the area, Punisher then glared at the thugs and said while pulling out the first thug's gun.
"Time for you to be PUNISHED." Punisher said.
Gunshots were heard and then there was silence.....
Punisher was heading back out and quietly left the area.
"Even though I did some work, that doesn't mean should be careful, I should get prepared and arm myself while finding some answers as to why I'm here and how to get home." Punisher thought.
Punisher only continued to discreetly leave the area and continue his patrolling.
An unknown figure was watching Punisher leave the area and spoke on a phone.
"He's made an first impression here already. What should I do?" The figure said
"The Punisher always kills criminals, maybe we can draw those pesky girls and those annoying turtles to him and get them to deal with him. "
"And if he finds out where you are?" The figure asked
"Then we'll create a diversion to draw him away and make sure we don't have to deal with him. In the meantime, keep observing what's going on. I'll decide what resources are necessary to deal with him. "
"Sure boss." The figure said before leaving.
Castle was back in his apartment and removed his mask and vest. He placed his vest on a table
"Well, lets see what I found." Frank said
Castle emptied his pockets and pulled out the weapons and items he confiscated.
They were two guns, two knives and at least a pair of brass knuckles. Aside from that, he took was a phone along with some money.
"I'm not one for stealing, but for scum, I'll make an exception." Frank said
He said the items aside and began to head to his bed to rest....
Frank Castle was many things. He was a soldier, a husband and a father. But after that had been taken away from him. Frank Castle was dead. He was now the Punisher.
As Castle slowly got up from his bed, he went to the bathroom to freshen up. After a few minutes, he left the bathroom and went to the kitchen to make some breakfast.
After he ate, he put on his vest, grabbed the weapons he confiscated yesterday and his leather jacket and headed out of his apartment.
The Rainbooms and Turtles were at Pinkie's home and were playing truth or dare. The turtles were in their true forms this time and sat around with the girls.
"So Rainbow. Truth or Dare?" Pinkie asked
"Dare." Rainbow Dash said
"I dare you to lick Mikey on the cheek." Pinkie said
"EW!/DUDE?!" Mikey and Rainbow Dash said together in disgust and dismay.
"You have to or your out." Rarity reminded
Rainbow Dash, with a swallowed gulp, went over to Mikey's left side and lightly licked him on his cheek. Both her and the orange bandana wearing ninja turtle shuddered as they glared at Pinkie, who smiled with glee.
"Alright then. My turn. Raph, Truth or Dare?" Leo asked
"Truth." Raph said
"Did you ever want to pummel me or Mikey harder when training?" Leo asked
"....That's a tough one. But I'm gonna say you since even though Mikey annoys me, I still care about him." Raph answered
"Thanks Raph." Mikey said.
"No problem. Just don't push it." Raph said with a look
The game continued on for the next few minutes. In the end, Sunset had won.
"Anyone wanna see TV?" Pinkie asked.
They all nodded and Pinkie turned the TV on and began to look through channels. They eventually found a show and began to watch.
"Well, it's been great hanging with you girls." Donnie said
"We had alot of fun with you gals! But next time, we're doing it in New York." Mikey added
The girls and the turtles only rolled their eyes at Mikey's hyperactive behavior. However, the TV showed a news report.
"We interrupt this program with some breaking news from Canterlot City. Last night, three young men from Canterlot prison had escaped and were found dead in an alley. There were at least two witnesses who claim the the three armed individuals had attempted to attack them, but an mysterious man with black clothing saved them and killed the muggers. Here is a statement from the witnesses."
The TV showed the woman the other day and said "The man who saved me. He may have killed those men, but thanks to him, my little girl is safe."
The TV showed a little girl next and she said with a relieved and happy tone "That big man was scary, but he saved me and my mommy by hurting those mean men. He had a skull on his shirt and protected me. He's a hero!"
The scene cut back to the news reporter "Does this mean there's a new vigilante in Canterlot City? One who takes extreme measures? One who uses lethal methods to stop evil? Stay tuned."
This left the girls and turtles surprised at the news. A vigilante? One who takes lives of criminals? This left them bewildered.
"A new vigilante?" Leo asked
"Wow, whoever he is, he must be an more angrier guy then Raph." Sunset said
"Hey!" Raph said offended.
"Whoever he is, it looks like he....unalives people." Rainbow Dash said
"Wait...you mean......?" Fluttershy asked with shock.
"Yeah Flutters. The feller takes lives." Applejack emphasized to the animal lover.
"I mean, should we stop him?" Fluttershy asked
"Fluttershy, darling, the savage could likely hurt someone else next! We don't know who he is for sure!" Rarity argued
"Plus, his targets, motives or his tactics." Sci-Twi added.
Unbeknownst to them, an figure was watching with binoculars. The figure laughed and said
"Well, it looks like Frankie and I have some little heroes that want to play. Time to have some fun...."
(A few hours at night)
Frank was patrolling the streets at the dead of night. This time, he wore a half face mask along with his signature vest and tactical pants. As he walked, so far there was nothing of concern.
"Hey, leave me alone!" A voice shouted
Punisher turned and went by the corner of the street. He saw a gang of young teens vandalizing a convenience store, both inside and out.
"Hey! Open the register!" The muscular thug said.
"No! This is all the hard earned money I need!" The cashier said
Castle scoped out the area and saw 3 thugs inside while 4 were outside around the perimeter. He slowly used an alleyway to hide himself and pulled out a karambit from his pocket. Seeing the male teen thug with a nailed bat, he whistled.
"Huh? What was that?" The thug asked, hearing the sound.
He went to check it out, until an hand grabbed him by the throat and choking sounds were heard. After a few seconds, no sound was heard. Punisher then left the alley and threw the thugs bat at the female thug with black and white hair with a pink streak wearing a scarf armed with a chain, knocking her out.
The thug with a black, white and red mohawk and red eyes saw the attack and shouted "Hey! What the-?!?!? OOOOF!"
A fist to his face knocked him out and dragged him out of sight and Punisher threw a brick at the final thug, who was a young female who held a metal pipe and had dark blue and black hair and all black clothing and a collar on her neck, at her head, knocking her on the pavement.
Punisher, after having managed to deal with the thugs, stealthily went in the shop. The last three were smashing up the shop.
Punisher, grabbing a water bottle, put it on his pistol and fired at the three thugs at point blank range. The shop cashier only looked at Castle and said
"Thank you sir! H-How could I ever repay you?"
Castle only grabbed a chips bag, soda bottle and candy bar and said "How much?"
"It's on the house. As a token of gratitude." The cashier said with a smile.
Frank however, placed a twenty dollar bill and two more dollars and said "Keep the change."
With that, Punisher left the shop. Gunshots were then until there was silence.
Punisher continued to patrol the streets and even took some of the thugs weapons....
However, on the roof of a far building, an unknown figure was watching the Punisher.
"So THIS must the feared Punisher Bullseye told me about. I shall report this. Then deal with him, permanently."
It was the dead of night and the Punisher was continuing his patrol of the streets. After he had dealt with the thugs, he took some of their weapons and continued his patrol. He heard some noises and he looked up ahead. He saw some flashing blue and red lights.
"Looks like there might be trouble, I may as well be careful and see what's going on....quietly." Punisher said in his thoughts
With a quiet crouch, Punisher looked and hid by an alleyway to be unseen, he quietly looked and saw a bunch of police cars with sirens flashing and the cops were being attacked by an bunch of armed men with weapons.
"I better time this before....wait....what's that?"
"Wait, isn't that April, Sunset and the others? Why are they armed with weapons and.....are those....turtles?" Frank said with surprise and confusion.
Frank stealthily watched as the girls, Spike and the turtles dealt with the criminals. As he watched them deal with the criminals, he saw a familiar figure on the building near the girls and turtles.
"Wait....him?!" Punisher said, recognizing the figure.
(With the Rainbooms and turtles)
The criminals were being dealt with by the girls and turtles, who single-handedly managed to knock them out. After the last of the criminals were defeated, the heroes tied them up.
"That's tha last of these varmints." Applejack said.
"Well, I guess we should call it a day." Twilight said
"Yeah, let's-! WHOA!" Mikey said, until something nearly hit him.
It was a knife, which almost hit Mikey, but hit a nearby building wall almost near his head.
"What the heck?!" Raph said
"I missed." The attacker said.
He revealed himself and showed he was wearing black and white armor from his chest to his legs and he had a target on his forehead. Along with him was another attacker that appeared to be a anthropomorphic tiger with an eyepatch.
"I NEVER miss." The attacker said again
"Hello again turtles." The tiger said
"Tiger Claw?! What are you doing here?" Leo asked
"You have something we want. Give it to me and you will walk away alive." Tiger Claw threatened
"Well, alive, but not mangled." The man in armor said with a vicious grin
"What's your problem dude?!" Mikey asked
"And who even are you anyway?" Sunset Shimmer asked as she, the Rainbooms and turtles got in fighting positions.
"I'm the man the never misses bacon face. But you can call me Bullseye."
"BACONFACE?!" Sunset said with outrage, with Mikey and Pinkie snickering.
"Well Bullseye, you better start talking and tell us why your here with Tiger Claw before we break it out of you!" Raph threatened
"Is that a threat tortoise? Or do you need a bunch of superstitious naive little pre-teens to help you cosplay to New York for your little slumber party?" Bullseye mocked.
The mockery only further aggravated the girls and turtles. They attacked Bullseye and Tiger Claw. While Tiger Claw was knocked down, Bullseye however, proved to be quite agile and fast. Even managing to counter Applejack's attacks and evade Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie. Sunset and Twilight had tried to use their magic, but Bullseye threw smoke bombs at them, directly at their faces.
"Can't see!" Twilight said, covering her eyes
The turtles tried to attack as well, but Bullseye threw a smoke bomb and threw knives or shuriken's at them each. While the turtles managed to evade the projectiles, Bullseye managed to knock them each down, from headbutting Mikey, hitting Donnie with his own staff and even roundhouse kicking Leo in the face and throwing him into Raph.
Bullseye, seeing Fluttershy with a scared look, grabbed Fluttershy and put a knife to her neck, giving a cold and evil smile.
"Well kid, looks like your about to see what happens when-"
BANG!
A loud gunshot was heard and Bullseye felt something cut the side of his head, grazing the side of his head. He let go of Fluttershy, causing her to back away, looking around for the source of the sound.
"What the?!" Bullseye cried out in pain.
The attacker revealed himself from an alley, aiming an rifle at Bullseye and the knocked out Tiger Claw. He had tactical pants with holsters, a vest with a skull symbol on it and wore a half-face mask covering his mouth. Bullseye only smirked and said mockingly.
"Well well, if it isn't the big bad Punisher."
"What do you doing here Bullseye?" Punisher asked
"Sorry, but that's a little secret me and my furry friend over there can't tell you. But I have room for you on my list."
"Get outta the way." Punisher said
"Or what? You'll glare me to death? I never miss. EVER. Too bad you can't say the same given those guns of yours." Bullseye said
"Hard to miss a psycho with a target on his face." Punisher said sarcastically.
With that said, Bullseye threw three knives at Punisher, who pulled out two pistols with lightning speed and shot the knives to the ground. Bullseye charged and continued throwing knives or shuriken's at Punisher, but he deflected them each with a single pistol shot and the two began to engage in a fist fight with one another.
This didn't go unnoticed by the girls and turtles, who each looked surprised at what was happening.
"Dude, who's that?" Mikey asked
"I dunno, but he looks super serious!" Pinkie added.
As the two continued to fight, Punisher grabbed Bullseye's leg and elbowed it, then headbutted him. then used his bowie knife to slash pieces of Bullseye's armor, causing some rips and tears that exposed some of his skin. Tiger Claw began to reawaken and saw Punisher knock down Bullseye, finishing him with a swift kick to the face. Pulling out one of his blasters with his left hand, the mutant tiger shot at Punisher.
Punisher, seeing the attack, grabbed Bullseye and used him as a shield. The blast hit the assassin, causing him to hit the ground in pain. Punisher then shot Tiger Claw in the chest seven times and then the left hand, disarming him. Seeing his opponent down, Punisher then grabbed his blaster and then aimed at Tiger Claw's forehead.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
"Do you think that a-AAAAAAGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!" Tiger Claw said, until Punisher shot his right knee and began to step on his leg.
"You were saying? Now, WHO sent you?" Punisher asked darkly.
"We were sent by our master The Shredder! The leader of the Foot Clan! From New York! Bullseye came to us and he gave us useful information where to find a special mutagen! It led us here!" Tiger Claw said in pain.
"How did you meet Bullseye?" Punisher asked
"I don't know. But he showed up to our base, beat our two top warriors and gave our master information on the girls and turtles, he said it involved magic and the mutagen, but nothing else."
Punisher, with a nod, let Tiger Claw go, heading to his way, however, Tiger Claw secretly pulled out another blaster and was about to fire.
BANG!
A gunshot was heard. Tiger Claw smiled evilly.....but after a few seconds, frowned and fell on the ground, limp, with his hand dropping the blaster on the ground.
Punisher had turned around used one of the mutant tiger's own blasters....to kill him
The girls and turtles were horrified as Fluttershy and Rarity even gasped, Leo's jaw fell down while Mikey looked away.
"NO!" Sunset shouted.
Punisher only grabbed the other blaster and swiftly finished off the other criminals dealt with by the Rainbooms and Turtles. The vigilante looked around and saw that Bullseye had escaped, giving an look of scorn, he left the scene before the turtles or girls got up.
The girls and turtles only gave mixed looks of shock and disbelief at what they witnessed as they each got up.
(With the Rainbooms and Turtles)
Back at Pinkie's home. The girls and turtles only laid down and recovered from their wounds and injuries from the fight. As they did, Donnie asked
"Who was that guy?"
"I dunno, but whoever he is, he could be involved." Leo said
"You sure bro? He did technically save us." Mikey notified
"But he killed Tiger Claw." Sunset said
"That Bullseye guy said his name was The Punisher." Raph brought up.
"He may be that vigilante that was on the news the other night." Rainbow Dash said
"Well whoever he is, we need to find out what he's doing." Twilight said
"And more importantly, stop him from hurting someone else." Applejack added
(With the Punisher)
Castle was in his apartment and taking off his gear. He put them on a table and headed to the bathroom, where he began to patch up his wounds with a medical kit in the bottom cabinet.
"Looks like Bullseye got away. But I managed to get some crucial info about why he was here." The Punisher said to himself.
As Frank stitched his wounds, he finished and put away the medical kit. He then left the bathroom and went to the couch, where he fell asleep.
Frank was in his apartment, having created a board with pictures of Bullseye, Tiger-Claw, The girls and turtles lined together. He only gave a look confusion and said
"The Shredder. Wonder who that could be?" Punisher said confused
As Frank continued to study the pictures, he went to another room and used a computer. He began typing on the keyboard and began to look with a look of curiosity.
"Whoa. Looks like Canterlot City has some events to talk about. Hopefully not Avengers level events." Punisher/Frank Castle said
Frank continued to look at the events of Canterlot City and then began to do some digging on the events. As he did, he saw something that made his eyes widen.
(With the Rainbooms and turtles)
The girls and the turtles (in human disguise) were in the school of Canterlot High and were in the cafeteria. They only continued eating as they spoke to each other.
"I can't believe Shredder is back." Mikey said
"Hold it Mikey, we don't know that for sure." Sunset said
"Plus, for all we know, Tiger Claw could be lying." Applejack added
"Yeah, Shredder can't be back. It's been a long time since we faced him." Rainbow Dash said with reluctance.
As they talked with one another, a young girl blonde hair and a muffin in her hands. As she walked, she suddenly tripped and her muffin fell out of her hand.
"Whoa! My muffin!" The girl said
The muffin was close to falling on the floor, until a hand caught the muffin, handing it back to the girl, who gave a look of surprise.
"Here kid."
The girl looked up to see who caught her muffin......Frank Castle......the Punisher.
"Oh! Thank you sir."
She took her muffin and began to walk off eating it. As she did, this hadn't gone unnoticed by the girls, who were surprised to see Castle. Even the other students noticed him as he headed to the Rainbooms.
"Frank? What are you doing here?" Sunset asked
"Just came to stop by and visit. I had some free time and I thought I'd get to know the place better." Frank said.
"Well you came at a good time Frankie! We can show you around CHS since we already did show you around the city." Pinkie added with a happy smile.
"Well, it couldn't hurt." Applejack said
The others agreed and began to finish eating as they went up to Frank and led him out the cafeteria.
The girls and their human disguised friends had led the vigilante around the school, as they did, Frank only gave a look of suspicion.
"Someone else is watching us. The girls and their friends may be helping me, but someone else is monitoring us."
Frank looked around and noticed an unknown person in a hoodie looking at them and following them while avoiding other students carefully.
"And over here is the music room!" Pinkie said, opening a door.
Inside was a classroom with instruments and other types of musical instruments and there were a few students inside using different instruments. Frank gave a look of impressed surprise and said
"Nice."
As Frank looked, he saw a guitar and began to think of his late daughter when he taught her how to play the guitar. Seeing the instrument, Frank walked toward it and grabbed the guitar off the rack.
Castle began to play the instrument slowly and closed his eyes as he played. The girls began to take notice as he played.
"Wow, he knows how to play guitar?" Donnie asked
"And he plays it so smoothly too." Fluttershy said with a heart-warming smile.
As Castle played, not only were the girls and ninja impressed by his playing, but some students who entered the music room were giving impressed smiles and compassion at him playing of the guitar.
"Dude, nice playing." One student (Flash Sentry) said with a grin
"Oh my darling. That was beautiful." Rarity complimented
"Bro. You have to teach me to do that." Another student (Microchips) acknowledged.
Frank stopped playing the guitar and put it back on the rack. He then turned to the girls and asked
"Anything else to show me?" Frank asked
Pinkie nodded and said "Yuppers Frankie! Follow me!"
Frank got up and noticed the figure was now outside watching him from a school window, but he decided to bide his time until it was right to strike. With a final glance, Frank said
"Lead the way."
The girls continued to show Frank around the school. From the cafeteria to the classrooms, Frank had even met a few of the students and became well acquainted with them. Eventually, Frank had began to head to restroom and began to do his business. Frank began to hear footsteps and slowly opened the stall door in the stall he was in. He saw the same hooded figure from before and gave a look of recognition.
"You again?" Frank whispered, seeing the figure.
The figure was using a sink and Frank stealthily walked behind them slowly and quietly. As soon as he was close, he grabbed the figure by the throat.
"Who are you?" Frank asked
"What's it to you?" The figure said
The Punisher tightened his grip on the person's throat harder and asked in a more menacing tone.
"Why. Are. You. FOLLOWING ME? "
The figure kicked Frank back and pulled out two blades. They then charged at him, but the Punisher then roundhouse kicked the person back into a stall door, he then landed a brutal blow to the person's chest and then the left leg.
As they fought, Frank managed to remove the hood the figure wore and what he saw surprised him.
"What the?" Frank said
The person was revealed to be a humanoid fox on two legs armed in ninjitsu like attire. The fox only pulled out two sickles and said
"So. You are the feared Punisher I have heard of." The fox said
"And you are?" Castle asked
"You may call me Alopex."
"Let me guess. Shredder sent you to kill me?"
Alopex gave a look of little suprise and confusion.
"What? No. He is dead, the turtles and those girls killed him. I'm here because you murdered my brother." Alopex said, readying her weapons
Frank only gave a confused look, not just because of what she mentioned of her brother, but because of how she said the Shredder was dead.
"Brother?" Punisher said.
"His name was Tiger Claw."
Punisher looked at her and then recalled his fight with Bullseye.
"No offense Alopex. But your brother worked with a psycho who was a monster. He even killed innocent people with Tiger Claw."
"Shut up!" Alopex said, continuing her attack.
She tried to attack with her sickles, but the Punisher countered by pulling out a combat knife and karambit from his pants pockets. The two continued to duke it out and despite Punisher landing a cut on her cheek and chest while evading her slashes and attacks from her sickles, she landed a brutal kick to his chest and knocked him down on the cold floor. She then jumped on him and prepared to kill him, with some tears in her eyes.
"Any last words?" Alopex asked
"Do it." Frank asked
The blunt statement from the vigilante surprised the fox kunoichi into saying
"W-what?"
"I said do it. I lost my wife and children and everything I cared about. You'll be doing us both a favor."
Alopex looked at the Punisher. She saw the seriousness in his eyes and tone and saw a broken shell of a man who now radiated misery and anger. She then readied the killing blow and lunged, with Punisher not even flinching.
SHIKT!!!
The blade of her cursed sickle hit the Punisher in the head.....or rather the right side of the floor near his head as Alopex slowly got off him and said
"Who is this other man you spoke of?"
Punisher got up slowly and said "Bullseye."
Alopex asked again "Where do I find him?"
"I don't know. I'm hunting for him myself, but I can't find him. But he managed to escape, that's why I'm here." Frank answered
Alopex only slowly got up and said to Castle "If your lying. You will suffer.
"I've suffered more then you can live through." Punisher replied
Alopex only left by jumping and leaving through an air vent. Punisher meanwhile, cleaned his bruises with water using the sink. After a few minutes of cleaning his face, Punisher left the bathroom and made his way out the school building.
Alopex was leaving the area and leapt from building to building as she made her escape, unaware a familiar assassin was observing her.....
"So Frankie is working with a pretty little fox? What a challenge....."
