Season 1, Episode 2: Out of this World House Guests

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The planet Earth had certainly gained a lot of recognition in the past few months.

First, the tale of the Omnitrix being in the possession of a resident of this planet, had spread like wildfire. This was followed by stories of the planetary warlord, Vilgax, being defeated on this planet several times. The Plumbers had begun to focus its attention on said planet, having an agent stationed there along with building a new base.

Recently, the planet had had a surge of Plumber Agents. More and more aliens were hearing stories of this planet. And something was about to happen, that would help Earth become even more well known.

On the outer edge of the solar system, a ship had just come out of warp speed.

This ship was the size of an earth luxury liner, which was currently smoking as part of its hull had been destroyed by some kind of explosion. On the main bridge, the aliens piloting the ship were doing their best to keep the cruiser from completely blowing up.

"Mayday!" The captain yelled, "mayday! Transport cruiser three-eight-six-oh-one, is currently suffering from heavy damage. An explosion has knocked out our hyper drive and damaged our life support. I have refugees and passengers being transported to Valux Three, who are about to die if we don't get assistance right now!"

The radio remained silent for a moment before it crackled. "Copy that, three-eight-six-oh-one. We are sending you the coordinates of a planet in the solar system you can land. Head to these exact coordinates."

"On it." The captain typed in the coordinates and used what was left of the ship's propulsion, to make the ship head towards the planet in question. "What's the name of the planet we'll be landing on?"

"Earth. In the City of Canterlot."


On Canterlot's main street, the cars were driving down the road on the way to their destinations.

Large skyscrapers were on either side of the road, with many people on the sideways either walking around, sitting down or hanging around with those they called friends. It was just like every other day. But it was about to get a whole lot different.

Suddenly, sirens filled the air and everyone turned to see a bunch of hard-light vehicles appearing on main street.

These were the vehicles belonging to the Plumbers, who used them the same way Shining Armor had been using them up to this point. The hard-light vehicles raced down the street, shooting something out of them that landed in front of the cars that had been about to enter the large intersection.

These things transformed into force field barriers, blocking the cars and making the drivers look annoyed and confused.

"All vehicles, please vacate this intersection. A serious situation is about to occur here and we must keep it free of casualties." This statement caused the people of the street to worry something big was about to happen. The cars quickly left the area, but the people remained where they were. Since the Plumbers were ignoring them, they assumed the issue wouldn't put them in danger.


In the Plumber Base, Shining was staring at the monitors that were showing images of the street along with one of the planet with a dot moving towards it.

"What's the time table?"

"The cruiser is just about to enter Earth's atmosphere. The captain has informed us that his landing system has been damaged, along with the retro thrusters. They're still working, but only at thirty percent power. That might not be enough to slow it down and stop it."

"Figured that might happen," Shining stated. "Don't worry. I sent someone to help stop it. They should be getting there now." He reached down and pressed a button. "Flash, you there yet?"


"Almost," Flash was in his car. Sunset was driving it, with Twilight and Rarity in the back. "You girls ready for this?"

They both nodded, as they arrived at the back of a line of cars. Flash, Twilight and Rarity got out of the car, Twilight and Rarity touching their geodes to transform into their ponied up state. Twilight then lifted Rarity into the air, whilst Sunset reversed away so as to not get Flash's car trapped.

Flash ran between the cars until he reached the barrier, the Plumbers spotting him as he ran into the centre of the street. He looked up and saw a red light in the sky, which the other citizens of Canterlot saw and grew worried about.

Rarity and Twilight landed atop a skyscraper, as the ship drew closer and closer to them.

Up in the air, several Plumber ships had flown up and were now flying around the ship. As they did, they fired cables that magnetically connected to the ship. They then pulled back on them, hoping this and the weakened retro thrusters would be enough to stop it.

Down below, Flash activated the Ultimatrix and cycled through his aliens until he finally found the one he had been looking for. As he did, a holographic screen appeared and he quickly typed a code into it. This unlocked the transformation and allowed him to slap his hand down on the dial.

In a flash of light, Flash transformed into the largest of his alien heroes. The giant stood tall and announced to the city who he was. "WAY BIG!" As he stared at the approaching ship, two Plumber ships flew up to his hands before a gun barrel of some kind folded out.

These guns fired a kind of foam out of them, which struck his hand and covered the large instruments.

As the form settled, it started expanding and turning into giant pillows. Way Big looked down at them and nodded, as the ship got closer and closer.

"Here it comes!" Twilight cried, as Rarity activated her geode and thrust her hands out. Doing so caused a ramp of gems to appear, leading from the start of the intersection all the way to Way Big. Twilight also activated her magic, though she doubted so would be much help in this situation.

She did her best to grab hold of the ship, or at least a part of it, and tried to push it upwards.

This combined with the other ships and the retro thrusters, kept the ship from hitting any of the buildings around the intersection. It entered the street and slammed into Rarity's ramp, the girl crying out as she did her best to keep the ramp from shattering.

The ship slid down the ramp and eventually reached Way Big, who braced himself and thrust his hands forward.

The ship slammed into the foam covering them and absorbed most of the impact, as the ship then slammed into Way Big. The giant alien felt himself getting pushed backwards. The ship wasn't as big as him, but the speed it was going forced him back.

He grunted, as the ship pushed into his chest and stomach. He felt his feet drag against the ground, as he pushed against the ship to try and stop it.

The other ships were also pulling as hard as they could and the cruiser was starting to slow down. But would it stop before Way Big ran out of street to slide down? "RAAAAAH!" He used all his strength to push back against the ship, whilst a large skyscraper drew closer and closer to him. If it didn't stop soon, Way Big would be the filling of a metal sandwich.

Everyone watched in fear, as Way Big got closer and closer to getting squished. The ships from before even tried spraying the building with more of that foam, but ran out before they got half the building covered.

Way Big gave the ship one final push, giving it everything he had, and the ship finally slowed to a stop. It did so, as Way Big felt his back rest against the building. He panted, but was alright. And with the ship having stopped, he found it was about to fall onto the ground. But he managed to wrap his arms around it and keep the ship from crashing down on the ground.

The Plumber Ships quickly flew under the ship and used themselves to keep it in the air, allowing Way Big to let it go and hit the Ultimatrix.

Flash was soon back and he fell to his knees, panting in exhaustion as Twilight, Rarity and Sunset rushed over to him. "You okay?" Twilight asked, as Flash gives her a thumbs up. The ships finally land with the cruiser still being placed on top of them, as people appear on the scene to look at it.

This was the first time people had seen a big ship like this, which wasn't trying to destroy their world.

Several more Plumbers arrived on the scene, with Shining arriving in a hard-light jet. He quickly materialised it and landed on the street, using his suit's communicator system to connect to the ship. "This is Agent Shining Armor, of the Plumbers. Please be advised, your ship is about to be scanned for anyone who is either a wanted fugitive or carrying alien pathogens that could cause a pandemic on this planet. If either of these are detected, your ship will need to be quarantined."

As this was going on, nobody noticed parts of the ship opening up at the bottom.

From out of these two different sections, a figure leapt out of each and quickly hid in the shadow of the ships. Moments later, the cruiser was swept by multiple lights that scanned the entire thing.

Flash and the girls moved over to Shining, who was receiving the results of the scans as they came in. After a while, the scan was complete and Shining nodded. "Okay. It looks like the ship is clean of criminals and viruses. The aliens are free to disembark."

"Is that a good idea?" Twilight asked, as she looked around. The others did the same and saw a large group of people all around them, staring at the ship. "A bunch of aliens appearing might cause a panic."

"Well we can't leave them on the ship," Shining stated. "The life support is fried and the repairs will go a lot quicker up in space. We'll just have to keep everyone calm." Part of the ship opened up and a bunch of aliens were beginning to leave.

The first were a group of baby-sized humanoid sharks, flying around in hovering fish bowls. "Hello there," one of them waved. "I'm Captain Fyn. Thank you for the happy landing."

"No problem," Flash looked over and saw more aliens beginning to leave the ship. Some he actually recognised, with a small group belonging to the same species as Squidstrictor. But most were completely new to him, as they began to climb down the ramps that had extended from the ship.

As they did, more and more people began to show up and stare at the ship in amazement. Even a news crew arrived, the woman holding the mic calling out to them. "Flash Sentry!" Flash turned towards her, "care to explain what's happening?"

"Um..." Flash would be he didn't have all the information.

Luckily, Shining stepped up and began to explain. "This ship had a situation whilst passing close to our solar system. An accident occurred that took out a lot of their systems. This was the only planet they could get to before the ship's air supply ran out."

"I see," the reporter nodded as more aliens disembarked.

Said aliens looked around, clearly worried the humans were going to start throwing things at them or try locking them up. One young alien tripped and accidentally sent the rubber ball they were holding to go bouncing away, eventually reaching an area close to the crowd of humans.

The alien child looked upset, clearly too scared to go get their ball. But to their surprise, a young girl stepped out of the crowd and picked the ball up. They then walked over to the alien child, who had picked itself up as she reached him. "Here you go."

The alien child looked surprised by this, but then smiled and took it before giving their thanks.

Flash looked around and saw that none of the people were looking at the aliens with fear, distrust or anger. They just looked, curious. "Flash Sentry." He turned towards the reporter and she held her mic up to him. "Can you confirm that these aliens aren't a threat to us?"

"Of course not," Flash stated. "These aren't like the aliens that have appeared here before. They didn't come here to cause trouble. They're only here because of an accident." He turned towards the crowd of aliens still leaving the ship and tried to find one that might help him show the aliens wouldn't be any problem.

One alien stepped forward. This one looked like a man sized teddy bear, except its head was humanoid with a skull mask covering the face. "Hello there," he spoke. "I understand you're worried about us. But I assure you, we have no intention of causing problems." He gestured to a small group of skull faced teddies. "My family and I lost our home to an asteroid storm. All we want to do is find a place we can live in peace."

"Exactly," Flash nodded. "I know Canterlot hasn't had the best history with aliens in the past. But I promise that if anything happens with these refugees, I'll deal with it." The large crowd seemed to accept this and the reporter nodded, as the Plumbers began to get a count on all the aliens that were there.

As this was going on, the two aliens that had snuck out of the ship came out of hiding.

One of them joined the crowd, making sure to join a section that had already been spoken to by the Plumbers. And the other one pressed something on their waist, which caused their entire body to suddenly disappear. This allowed them to rush away from the ship and sneak past the humans in the crowd. By the time they reappeared, they were far away from the ship.


The news of the alien spaceship coming to Earth. spread like wildfire. And with Flash swearing everything would be alright, the citizens of Canterlot weren't worried at all.

The ship was soon lifted back into the sky, with repairs beginning to be underway. But before it could, there was one other issue the Plumbers needed to deal with. Finding a place for all the aliens that were currently without a place to stay.

"Alien refugees?" Shining Armor was currently talking to the president of the United States, the man appearing quite shocked when Shining gave his report about the situation. "I see. And what do you plan on doing with them, until their ship is fixed?"

"That is the question," Shining sighed. "I hoped we could keep them at the base, but there just isn't enough room for them all. Not unless we stick them in a cell, which is not happening."

"Indeed," the president nodded. "This is an important moment in Earth's history. The first time aliens are being given public asylum. This could decide how Earth's future with alien species is formed. I suggest asking citizens of the city to house some of the aliens. You said they were comfortable with them being there. They might be interested in learning how some aliens live."

"Not a bad idea," Shining nodded. "I just hope people are open to it."

"I think you'll find the citizens of Canterlot, are more open minded than you give them credit for. Get in contact with the local news studio and have them give out a public address. See how many people are willing to open their homes to those in need."

Shining nodded and as the president hung up, the Plumber began making contact with the local news studio.


As it turned out, the president was right about the people of Canterlot being open to letting aliens stay with them.

When the news of the Plumbers asking for people to help house the refugees got out, the Plumber Base was soon swarmed with phone calls from people agreeing to it. Soon enough, almost all the aliens found themselves living with humans. The only ones unable to be housed were those in large families, but they were okay staying at the Base.

When Flash got home, he found himself being greeted by a tall alien that was a mixture of pink and cream. She had large ears on the side of her head, which had a ribbon-like tendril coming off each one.

"Flash," Misty smiled, "this is Audia. She'll be staying with us for a while."

"Awesome," Flash smiled before stepping over to hold out a hand. "It's nice to meet you."

Audia smiled before shaking it, "nice to meet you as well." The way she was speaking was barely a whisper, Flash needing to strain to hear it. Flash then noticed Audia had some kind of device in her ears. Something she realised he was staring at. "It's a hearing device. My home planet has barely any sound, so we evolved very powerful ears."

"I get it," Flash nodded. "That thing's to keep you from getting overwhelmed."

"Yes," she whispered. "You might feel your voice is normal volume, but to me it would be considered shouting. Any louder and it might hurt." Flash nodded, as Misty was working on their dinner.

As she put the finishing touches on the shepherd's pie they were having, Audia asked many questions about their world. The family was happy to tell her all about it, whilst they had questions about her own planet. As they sat around the dinner table, they continued to converse and talk about each other's worlds.

Audia eventually started asking about Flash's time using the Omnitrix, as the stories of a human defeating Vilgax had spread throughout the galaxy. "Vilgax attacked my planet years ago," she explained. "When he realised how sensitive we were to sound, he attacked using high pitched noises. He killed many of my people and captured the rest of us. It was years later that we managed to escape. And we've been searching the galaxy for a place to call home since."

"That's terrible," Misty told her. "I'm so sorry that happened."

"Thank you," Audia nodded. "I'm sure many of my people have found their way home. But I don't think I could go back. The damage Vilgax did to our planet was horrible. It would take decades to undo it."

Flash sighed. "Well, you don't have to worry about Vilgax causing you problems anymore. I made sure of that." Audia smiled, as they continued their dinner. Audia moaned in delight, loving the taste of shepherd. It took them a little while to explain that one to her.


All over Canterlot, families were getting to know the alien residents that they had agreed to house.

Twilight's family found themselves playing host to a strange alien, that was a floating mass of pink and blue shapes that resembled a duck. The alien had no neck, so its head floated above its body. Despite this, it was still quite the conversationalist.

Pinkie's family was playing host to an alien that was made entirely out of rock, who was humanoid and stood at around twelve feet. Pinkie's family found they had quite a lot in common with this alien, as he was considered a doctor on his home planet so knew a lot about taking care of rock-bodied creatures.

Rarity's family was housing an alien whose species sang everything they wished to speak. As such, the family found themselves singing everything they said to make her feel more comfortable. Sweetie Belle enjoyed this especially.

Rainbow's alien guest was likely the weirdest of them all, being what appeared to be a giant slug with arms and a head. Instead of talking, this alien spoke by creating a bunch of farting sounds. The family had been given a translation device, but quickly found themselves learning to speak using their own armpits.

Applejack was hosting an alien weed called a Florauna, who quickly took a liking to her family's orchard. Instead of needing to give him a room, they let him hang out with the trees in the backyard. He was rather comfortable there.

Fluttershy's family was hosting an almost behemoth alien, who was fifteen feet tall and had six arms with no legs. But despite his size, muscles and fang filled face, he was actually quite gentle and spent the evening knitting with Fluttershy and her mother.

Despite not having her own family, Sunset had agreed to let an alien stay at her apartment. She had stipulated that it would need to be a small one, since she didn't have a lot of room. And she soon found herself sharing with a rather small alien, who was nothing more than a head with long and thin arms coming out the sides of it. She found herself quite comfortable, sleeping on Sunset's couch.

Trixie was also hosting an alien, this one being a snake-like alien covered in fur and having a hand on the end of its tail. They and Trixie's father spent the evening doing card tricks with one another, Trixie and Jackpot being amazed at how sneaky an alien with one hand could be.

Shining and Cadance were also playing host and they found their house guest, was quite the helpful little alien. Being a Splixson, this alien could replicate himself. And when one person could become a hundred, it made tasks that needed doing rather easy.

"There you go, little lady." The alien finished changing Flurry's diaper, whilst a clone picked up a bag with the old one in it.

"Pee-yow!" He pulled a nose pin out of nowhere and put it on his nose. "Someone needs more fibre in their diet." He began to walk off, as the other clones continued to make Flurry laugh by doing a bunch of funny stuff.

In the kitchen, Cadance and Shining were fixing dinner and smiled when they heard Flurry laughing. "This was a great idea," Cadance told Shining. "Flurry's having a great time and Augere has a place to stay that's not a police cell."

"Yeah," Shining smiled. "I keep expecting the base to call me and tell me something's going wrong with one of the housings. But it looks like everything's fine."

"I really hope something doesn't happen, to make everyone think twice about this." Cadance started dishing out the food. "Remember what Flash said about the future? How a bunch of aliens were living on Earth?"

"Yeah," Shining nodded. "That was the only cool thing about Flash's story. You think this might be how it starts?"

"Who knows," Cadance shrugged. "The future's changed since Flash saved you. Maybe an alien filled world won't exist in the future. Or maybe it'll happen quicker."

"Possible," Shining nodded. "And if it does happen, we'll need to be ready to help make it a reality. For Flurry's sake. She loves aliens. I bet she'd love growing up surrounded by more of them. Maybe have some friends she can go to school with that are from other planets." Cadance nodded, as they picked up the plates and headed for the dinning room.


At school the next day, the alien house guests were all anyone talked about.

"Look at the sweater he made Angel Bunny," Fluttershy was showing her friends the picture of her pet bunny. Everyone stared at it and nodded, amazed he was so skilled with knitting needles. "My mom's showing him around town today."

"My mom's doing that too," Twilight nodded. "She's even taking Sunset's house guest with them." She sighed, "this is incredible. Actual aliens walking around town, with nobody freaking out seeing them."

"I think we all know why people aren't scared," Trixie turned to Flash. The teen looked around, clearly confused.

"What?"

"Isn't it obvious," Trixie told him. "You running around as a bunch of aliens has desensitised everyone. Most people have seen aliens running around every day. The only difference now is that there's more of them."

"Huh," Flash shrugged, "guess you've got a point."

Twilight laughed. "You've become a beacon for human alien relations. Who knows what'll happen next." As she said that, the classroom door opened and Celestia stepped inside.

"Everyone. I have a surprise for you all. Your regular teacher had to call in sick, but I managed to get a very special substitute for you." She turned to the doorway. "You can come in now." Moments later, a dog-like alien stepped into the room.

He was humanoid with brown skin and dark brown hair, having a human head but with the floppy ears and long nose of a dog. He was dressed in clothes that looked like he had gotten them in the victorian era. "Hello there," he smiled at the class. "I am Doctor Canis Barkington. Xenobiologist extraordinaire."

Everyone was amazed to have an alien as their substitute teacher, the dog man alien stepping behind the desk.

"I am currently staying with your principal and agreed to fill in for her, whilst your usual teacher is away." A hand raised, "yes?"

Pinkie spoke up. "What's a xenobiologist?"

Canis chuckled. "It is the study of new and unusual creatures. I've spent my life, travelling the galaxy to learn as much as I can about the universe and its many different types of life. And that's what I'll be teaching you all today. I know that aliens are a new thing for this planet, so I wish to help educate you on the many different types of creatures out in the universe."

Everyone was excited to hear this, as Canis turned to Flash.

"Mr Sentry. I understand that you have made quite a name for certain species of aliens." Flash nodded. "Well, I'm sure you and your classmates are all eager to learn more about the aliens you can become. So why don't you come up here and show me some of the aliens you have shown off in your time as a hero?"

"Cool," Flash got up and activated the Ultimatrix. He looked around, "any requests?"

"Volt-Edge!" One of the male students called out, the others sounding just as excited. Flash nodded and activated the Ultimatrix, the hologram of Cat-Apult appearing.

"Fascinating," Canis adjusted his glasses, as Flash started flipping through aliens until he found the one he was looking for. "Ah, a Serravoltian. Yes, I can tell you a lot about this breed of alien." Everyone listened eagerly, as Canis began to tell them all about their home planet and how Serravoltians lived.

It was quite the successful class, with Canis telling them all about several of Flash's most well known aliens. By the end of the class, everyone found themselves much more interested in the aliens that were out in the universe. Not just what cool abilities they had, but also the worlds that had shaped them to have such abilities.

They hoped Canis would be their substitute for a while, since Flash still had a lot more aliens for them to learn about.


Later that day, Shining was at the base and stepped up to one of the monitors.

"Any news from the repair team?" He asked the alien Plumber working monitor duty, who was currently typing away at the computer and brought up the information.

"We've got the reports coming in now." Shining nodded, as the alien read it and suddenly looked very worried. "Sir. The damage report is stating that the damage done to the ship wasn't accidental."

"What?" Shining asked, moving over to take a closer look.

"The investigations uncovered proof that the damage was done by some form of explosive charge. Someone set a bunch of explosives in key areas, to damage the ship's warp drive and life support."

"Seriously?" Shining read the report and realised he was right. "Why? One miscalculation would have caused the ship to blow up in the vacuum of space. Why risk your own destruction?"

"Maybe they needed a way to get onto the planet?" The Plumber suggested. "A ship attempting to sneak past our Plumber sensors would be almost impossible. But making a transport ship have to land here, would make it easier to sneak onto the planet. The one responsible, could just hide in the crowd and slip away without anyone noticing."

"You're right," Shining nodded. "But who? The scans didn't show any known criminals. So that leaves criminals good enough to never get caught, or someone who's never committed a crime until now."

"Shining Armor!" A human Plumber spoke up. "We might have a problem." Shining rushed over to his monitor. "I was going over images from the crash and found something." He pointed at an image showing a crowd of aliens, which circled on in particular. "This passenger wasn't one that we got a bio scan for. So I tried to find him in the ship's passenger manifest, but he wasn't there."

"A stowaway." Shining frowned. "Do a facial scan and see if he's in the Plumber Database. I don't care if it's just for littering." The Plumber nodded and did just that, managing to isolate him and get the best image of him that he could get. And after a moment, the computer gave an alert.

"He's in the database." He brought up the file, showing the alien's full form.

He was a humanoid alien standing at around seven feet, being green in colour with blue patterns covering his skin. He didn't appear to have any distinguishing features, such as wings or vines. Shining realised his species was probably similar to humans, being more like tool users rather than having special abilities.

"He's a wanted smuggler. Been caught several times, trying to sneak illegal weapons and animals to other planets."

"Not good," Shining frowned. "If he was able to avoid our scans, he must be skilled in covering his tracks. Hopefully, he hasn't left the city yet. Is his DNA on the system?" The Plumber nodded. "Then use the base scanners to find him. Then see if there are any Plumbers close to him."

"Aye sir." The Plumber did just that, the scanners pulsing for several moments until they managed to lock in on something. "Found him. And the closest agent to his location is...Agent Sentry."

"Good," Shining smirked before pulling out his badge.


Flash was currently driving through the town, doing his after school patrol.

As he looked around for any issues he might need to fix, he was listening to a popular song that had come on the radio. But the music suddenly stopped, right as his phone began to ring. "Flash here," he answered the speakerphone.

"Flash, it's Shining. We've got a problem." Flash frowned, not liking the sound of that. "Turns out one of the passengers was a crook. He's close to your location. I'm sending it to you and some Plumbers are on the way. See if you can stop him before they get there to pick him up."

"You got it." Flash's Ultimatrix beeped before the dial showed a hologram of a map, with the Ultimatrix symbol in the centre of it and a red dot not too far away.

Flash quickly put his car into gear and headed in the direction of the red dot, which was moving away from him as he did his best to catch up. After a minute, he realised where the guy must be going and knew a way to cut him off.

He had to drive around and leave his car, but he was soon heading towards the dot as it got closer to him. And as he turned a corner, he spotted someone walking down the street. And to his joy, it was the alien he was supposed to bring in.

"Hey!" Flash called out, catching the alien's attention. "Plumber Agent. Stop where you are!" But the alien didn't stop and instead, began to run. "Of course." Flash activated the Ultimatrix and started cycling through his aliens. He was looking for XLR8, but the guy was getting away and Flash needed something.

Then, he found an alien he hadn't used since unlocking it. This seemed like a good time to try it, so Flash slapped it down and a bright flash of green filled the air.


The alien ran as fast as he could, reaching a metal fence and quickly climbing over it.

He didn't know if the Plumber was still following him, but he wasn't gonna stop running until he was far away. So being careful of the bag on his back, he jumped the fence and dashed off. But what he didn't realise, was that his pursuer was currently up on the roof and catching up to him fast.

He ran across the street and down into another alleyway. But as he passed a couple of trash cans, something flew down and slammed their feet into his chest.

"Augh!" He was knocked staggering into the trash cans, as his assailant did a back-flip and landed. "What the?" He looked ahead of him and was shocked. "A Revonnahgander? What are you doing here?"

The alien in front of him was a Revonnahgander, born from Flash scanning a Plumber agent from another universe.

His body was similar in scale to Rook's, though a little shorter, but he had different facial features. He had a pair of black lines running from the outer edges of his eyes, all the way down to his neck. Inside those lines, around his mouth and stopping at a point between his eyes, his fur was white. The rest of his face was the standard revonnahgander purple.

The top of his head had a streak of blue hair, running from the centre of his forehead all the way to the back of his neck. He was wearing a sleeveless black suit, with white around the neck, that had a white belt where the Ultimatrix was located. He wore white boots with black at the top and bottom, along with a pair of black armbands around his arms and a pair of white fingerless gloves.

His arms were covered in white stripes and as he stood in front of the alien, he got into a fighting stance. "You gonna run? Or are you man enough to take on Furfighter hand-to-hand?"

The alien glared at him and picked himself up, then got into a fighting stance with his hands clenched. He then let out a roar and charged forward, throwing a punch at the alien's head. But Furfighter ducked down and dealt a swift strike to the alien's stomach. This caused the alien's eyes to go wide, as he was knocked staggering back and gasped for air.

"Cheap shot!" He coughed, then charged again. He threw a punch, but Furfighter deflected it. He then threw another one, but Furfighter dodged and quickly swung his foot around to kick him in the chest.

The alien was knocked back, whilst Furfighter quickly ran forward.

The alien grabbed one of the trash cans and threw it at him, but Furfighter leapt up onto the wall and jumped off it to avoid the metal cylinder. He spun through the air and dealt a kick to the alien's face, making him cry out as she was thrown to the ground.

Furfighter smirked, seeing his opponent in such a state. Ever since he unlocked this alien, he had been training in martial arts to help him use Furfighter to his full potential. It hadn't been easy, but it was clearly paying off.

The alien pushed himself back to his feet and glared at Furfighter. His lip was bleeding and as he wiped the blood away, he growled. "You are so dead!" He charged, blindly throwing punches and kicks at his opponent. But Furfighter's cat-like reflexes were making it impossible for him to land a single blow. "Stay still!"

"And let you hit me? I don't think so!" The alien threw a punch towards him and Furfighter caught it in his hand, then twisted it to make the alien cry in pain. He then threw the fist away and dealt several quick jabs to the alien's chest, pushing the air out of his lungs and making him stagger backwards.

"Augh! I'm gonna feel that one tomorrow!"

"And a few days afterwards!" Furfighter got into his fighting stance once again. "Give up. Tell me why you came to Earth. You snuck onto a transport ship and clearly had villainous intentions. What were you planning?" The alien said nothing and ran forward, throwing several more punches towards him.

Furfighter dodged them all and grabbed the last punch before spinning around, throwing the alien down the alleyway until he crashed into a few more trash cans.

He cried out, as he was covered in trash. He wasn't happy about this and as he picked himself up, Furfighter moved towards him. "Fine. You wanna know what I'm up to?" He reached into his bag and pulled something out. "I wasn't gonna use this. But you forced my hand." Furfighter looked confused, as the alien held up some kind of gun.

The sight of it made Furfighter's eyes go wide, as the alien pointed it at the sky and fired it.

A missile of some kind exploded out of the end, shooting straight into the sky high above the buildings. "What is that?" The missile fell apart and something was revealed before it fell to the ground, Furfighter's powerful eyes allowing him to see it was some kind of jelly.

That jelly fell down and landed on top of a car that was parked outside of the alleyway.

Furfighter grabbed the alien and dragged him out of the alley, as they watched the football-sized blob spread out along the roof of the car. Furfighter figured it was some kind of acid, but didn't think a car would be much of a loss. And sure enough, the jelly did begin to melt the car's roof.

"I think you need to work on your aim," he told the alien criminal. But the alien began to chuckle and the hero soon saw why, as the jelly kept spreading around the rest of the car. "Wait...is it growing?"

Within moments, the blob of greenish goop completely surrounded the car. The vehicle was completely consumed by the substance and then, to Furfighter's horror, slimy tendrils spread out from the main body and started moving around.

"It's alive?" One of the slime tendrils flew towards them and Furfighter leapt up, the alien still in his grasp. He didn't know what that stuff did to living tissue and he intended not to find out.

Realising Furfighter wouldn't be much help, the alien hero hit the Ultimatrix and transformed.

In a flash, he changed whilst throwing the alien towards another building. "Arctiguana!" The alien lizard flew out of the light and shot a blast of ice towards the alien, hitting him right as he reached the building and freezing him to it. He then turned his attention back to the jelly creature, unleashing a blast of ice that froze one of its tentacles solid.

He smiled as he landed, only to see the ice around the tendril quickly start to melt.

"Seriously?" The water was absorbed into the tendril, allowing the slime creature to grow larger. It then moved towards some more cars, clearly planning to swallow them and make itself growl larger. "Oh no, you don't!" He leapt onto the side of a building and crawled along it, getting ahead of the creature and unleashing a blast of ice that surrounded the cars.

Arctiguana hoped this would make the creature choose to not try and eat the cars, as its car-sized body slithered over the frozen vehicle. But then it stopped and just stood over the frozen car, letting the ice melt and get sucked up into its body. And the car soon followed.

"What does it take to stop this thing?" He dared not try and freeze it again, since that would just add more stuff for it to absorb.

All he could do was watch, as the jelly creature slithered around and absorbed more and more of the ice and cars. And with every car it absorbed, it grew larger and larger. Eventually, it grew to the size of a house.

Suddenly, Arctiguana's Ultimatrix gave off its communicator beep and the alien tapped it. "Shining. Please tell me you know what this thing is. And more importantly, how the heck I beat it."

"This thing's name is way too long for me to get right. All I can tell you is that it's a rare and dangerous creature. Owning one is illegal in several sectors of the galaxy. Including here and the planet the transporter was heading. Looks like our smuggler friend was planning on causing some serious problems here before you found him."

Arctiguana didn't think so, remembering what the alien had said before firing it. "How do I stop this thing?"

"According to the computer, it's weakness is super high voltage. The bigger it gets the more power is needed to hurt it."

"High voltage? I can handle that!" He cut the call and ran along the side of the building, once again getting ahead of the jelly before leaping off the building. As he did, he hit the Ultimatrix and transformed into his first alien. "Volt-Edge!" He landed in front of the jelly and started generating as much energy as possible. "You wanna snack on something? Then snack on this!" He unleashed a blast of lightning, which slammed into the jelly creature and made it shake.

Volt-Edge bet if it had a means of making sound, it would be screaming right now.

The lightning blast ended and he quickly charged up another blast, as the jelly creature brought out a tendril and flung it towards him. "WOW!" He leapt into the air, barely avoiding the tendril. He then unleashed a blast of lightning, which hit the creature and zapped it again.

But whilst the energy was clearly hurting the creature, its body had grown so large Volt-Edge couldn't build up a big enough charge to do any real damage.

Volt-Edge landed and realised he needed to seriously up the juice. But there wasn't anything around him that could give him an extra power boost. As such, he reached down and hit the Ultimatrix. Doing so changed the dial's form before a green light began to spread across his body, transforming him into his hyper evolved state. "ULTIMATE VOLT-EDGE!"

The slime creature swung a tendril at him, but one of the spikes on his back flew off and slammed into the side of a building. The electrical rope connecting it to Ultimate Volt-Edge then retracted, pulling him up and out of the tendril's path.

Once the spike reconnected to his back, Ultimate Volt-Edge's gauntlet blades extended and sparked with lightning. He leapt off of the building and as the energy built, two of the spikes flew off his back and went under his feet. He used them to keep himself in the air, as he unleashed the electrical energy straight towards the creature.

The jelly beast was struck and once again started going nuts, the lightning doing serious damage. Ultimate Volt-Edge's supercharged lightning, was three times more powerful than his base form's power. Slowly, parts of the creature's body started to evaporate off of it.

As it slowly shrank back down, the creature fired a tendril to try and grab him. But Ultimate Volt-Edge was able to dodge the tendril in the air and used his claws to slash at it. With the blades coated in lightning, they cut through the jelly with no damage done to them.

The severed tendril fell to the ground and splashed against it, evaporating into nothing as Ultimate Volt-Edge spun back towards the jelly alien. Said alien was pulling itself along the ground, once again heading towards a parked car. "Not this time." He unleashed tendrils of blue lightning, which flew over to the car and hit it. The car was then lifted into the air.

The jelly monster seemed to notice its target had disappeared, as Ultimate Volt-Edge dropped it onto the roof of a building. He then began to once again charge up power before unleashing it, hitting the monster once again and doing more damage to it.

It kept shaking and squishing around, taking multiple shapes as it tried to save itself. But it couldn't find again the energy Ultimate Volt-Edge was putting out.

It kept shrinking and growing weaker, becoming desperate as it fired a bunch of jelly blobs in his direction. But Ultimate Volt-Edge fired the last three spikes on his back and the blades on his gauntlet off, the nine electrified blades swinging around and cutting through the jelly. As each blob was sliced in half, they were vaporised.

Ultimate Volt-Edge then fired the blades towards the beast and as they stabbed into the creature, he sent all the energy into them and they electrified the monster. At this point, there was nothing else it could do. The monster was completely overwhelmed by the energy and as Volt-Edge's charge died down, its entire body disappeared.

Ultimate Volt-Edge jumped down, the blades returning to his body as he looked around. He had to make sure there wasn't a single drop of that thing left. He looked around, but there was no sign of it. It was dead.

Sirens filled the air and he looked around to see a bunch of Plumber vehicles, racing down the street towards him.

The Ultimatrix beeped and as the Plumbers arrived, he reverted back to standard Volt-Edge before changing to Flash. He panted, still getting used to going Ultimate. "Flash!" One of the agents announced, "you okay?"

"I'm fine," Flash assured them. "But do you guys mind booking him?" He pointed at the alien that was still frozen to the side of the building. The Plumbers nodded and got to work, using their Multi-Strikers to melt part of the ice before pulling him off.

"You're under arrest," the Plumber stated. "For smuggling illegal goods and bombing a the transport ship."

"What?" The alien asked, "I didn't bomb that transport." The Plumbers all gave him a suspicious look, "I'm serious. Why the heck would I want to come to this dump of a planet? I was supposed to meet my client on Valux Three. When that stupid ship crashed, I hightailed it because I knew the Plumbers would scan me and find out I was a smuggler."

Flash frowned. "But if you didn't blow up the ship, who did?" The others looked just as confused, Flash fearing there might be another dangerous alien on this planet. And if there was, what were they up to?


Outside the city, a figure was walking along the side of the road.

He was an alien that was humanoid in appearance, his body being mostly pure white. His head had large yellow eyes, a trident-style trio of horns and a zigzag mouth that looked like it could chew through anything. His arms and legs were blue in colour, ending in flame patterns right after the elbow and knees.

A black cape was surrounding his neck and trailed down his back and over his shoulders, whilst his chest had a black vest on it that had several pockets covering it. Around his waist was a black belt, with a knife on the back hidden under the cape.

The alien spotted a car driving down the road towards him and reached for his belt, pressing a button on it that caused him to suddenly change into a human. The car drove past, the driver and passengers not giving him a second look.

As soon as they passed, he hit the belt again and changed back to normal before looking around.

He had reached an open area with nothing around it. A large empty field was next to the road and by the looks of things, nobody would be driving past this area again. As such, he moved over to the field and took something out of a pocket on his vest.

It was a small disk with a button in the middle of it, the alien pressing it before throwing the disk into the centre of the field.

As soon as it hit, an explosion of light filled the air. That light took the form of a large portal, which something began to fly out of. A large spaceship, roughly the size of a five bedroom house. It was red in colour and had a large section at the front with a round window so whoever was driving could see.

The ship flew out of the portal and began to touch down on the ground, as the portal shut behind it

The ship landed and a minute later, part of it opened up so three figures could step out of it. Each of them was humanoid in appearance, though their alien origins were obvious. They were very similar to the first alien, having large eyes and some kind of armored exoskeleton. But they all had their own styles that set them apart.

One appeared more feminine, her armor being a mixture of red with yellow around the chest, waist and the joints of her armor. Her yellow eyes were shaped like fireballs and her head crest was also fire shaped, whilst her hair was red with yellow highlights. As the wind flickered, her hair looked like it was made of actual fire.

Another was yellow in colour and instead of having normal arms, he seemed to have long tendril-like limbs that ended with a single triangular point made of silver metal. His eyes were black and his head crest was a sideways crescent moon.

Finally, the last one was blue in colour and had a single white V-shaped visor in place of its regular eyes. This one didn't seem to have any natural difference, but its right arm wasn't like its other. The right arm was a robotic prosthetic, being black in nature and appearing to have some kind of transformation ability.

The three aliens stepped towards the white one, the red alien speaking up. "Did everything go to plan?"

"Yes," he nodded. "I managed to get to this planet without anyone noticing me." The other aliens looked around, the yellow alien speaking up in wonder.

"So pretty. I wonder if this is what our world looked like?"

"We'll find out soon," the grey one stated before turning to the white one. "Zaaton. Are you sure it's here?"

"I am," Zaaton nodded. "After millennia of searching, we are now so close to finding it. Once we have it, the universe will once again tremble before us. Now let's go. Before one of these humans drives by and sees us." The aliens nodded and all climbed onto the ship, which was soon closing up and lifting into the air.

Within moments, the ship shot off into the sky. Far away from Canterlot and anything that could hope to detect them.


Several days later.

The day had finally arrived. The cruiser was fully repaired and ready to take the aliens off the planet. The ship had landed in an area outside the city, where a large group of aliens and humans were there.

Flash and his friends were there, along with everyone that had housed the aliens in their home.

Currently, Flurry was crying. She had really grown attached to her duplicating friend and she clearly knew he was leaving, Cadance doing everything she could to try and calm her down. But it was no use. The baby was just too sad.

"It was so nice meeting you," Misty told the large eared alien.

"You were a delight to have," Trail agreed.

"Thank you," she whispered as she looked around. It was a beautiful day. The birds were singing and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. "This is such an amazing planet. I wish I could stay here."

"Why don't you?" Flash asked, as the others looked at him in shock. "I'm sure this planet would love to have you guys stay here."

"I don't know if that's such a good idea," Shining frowned. "I mean, I'd love for them to stay if they wanted. But it's not really up to me."

"No. I believe it's up to me." The large group turned to see a man walking towards them. It was the president of the United States, the man adjusting his tie as he approached. "Greetings. I'm the one in charge of this country that you've been staying in."

"I see," Captain Fyn nodded. "Well, thank you for letting us stay here. Hopefully, the next time we come here won't be in such drastic circumstances."

"Yes," the president nodded. "About that." He turned to the aliens. "I read the report about why you were heading to this Valux Three. Many of you are searching for places to call home, after your previous homes were made uninhabitable."

"Yes," Canis nodded. "Many of these aliens are refugees. Some lost their home due to natural disasters, or had them stolen by others and forced off planet. Unfortunately, the planets that they've been travelling to haven't been able to offer anything except temporary accommodations."

"Well," the president smiled, "maybe Earth can become the home you're looking for." That statement shocked everyone, human and alien.

"Wait," Shining spoke up. "You want them to stay on Earth?"

"Unless anyone has anything against it." He looked around, but apparently the large crowd was perfectly happy with many of their new friends staying if they wanted to. "And I don't intend for them to simply stay on Earth and do nothing. If they stay, I have plans for them."

"What kind of plans?" One of the aliens asked, obviously worried they might be turned into slaves or forced into some kind of experiments.

"Don't worry. It's nothing bad. If you wish to say on Earth, you must contribute to the planet. I'm sure many of you have skills and former occupations that could be useful here on Earth, but those of you that don't can help with a project I have decided to start. A space port."

"Come again?" Flash asked, as the other humans wondered what he was talking about.

"I've read all about why the ship was passing by our solar system. Apparently, our area of space works as some kind of cosmic super highway. Ships can use it to get places faster and with less fuel."

"Yes," Fyn nodded. "But sometimes, ships still end up running out of fuel on the way. Or they run out of food, water and breathable air. It all depends on where they're going and where they're coming from."

"Which is why I'd like to open a space port. Somewhere ships can come for fuel and to restock. And maybe this could be where they're heading. So long as it's safe, they can bring their alien cargo here to trade and sell."

"Awesome!" Rainbow cheered. "Imagine it. Alien foods to try. I'd love to see what an alien's version of a burger would look like."

"It does sound interesting," Celestia nodded. "But where would you put this space port? I can't imagine it'd be a small area and Canterlot doesn't have any room like that."

"True. But a large area outside of Canterlot is nothing but open fields. The land can't be used for farming or livestock thanks to natural pollutants, so it's just been sitting there growing nothing but weeds. And I don't just intend to build a spaceport there. I intend to build an entire city there. Or, at least a town. Someplace the visiting aliens can spend their time as they wait for their ships to be refuelled and their cargo to be unloaded."

"An alien town," Flash whispered. He was reminded of his trip to the future. Had something like this happened in that timeline, allowing aliens to live on earth without persecution. "That sounds amazing."

"Would we have to live in this new town?" One of the aliens asked. "Or could we live in Canterlot and commute to the spaceport, if we agreed to work there?"

"You can live wherever you like," the president explained. "Canterlot, this new town. If you're able to, feel free to move to another town and get a job there. So long as you follow our rules, I have no issue where you live."

The aliens looked amazed at this, whilst the human crowd were just as excited. Many were likely wondering if they could move into this new town and get jobs there. The perfect place for humans and aliens to coexist.

The President then turned to Flash and Shining. "Gentlemen. I know I'm springing this on you out of the blue. But what do you say? I know more aliens here, may mean more work for the Plumbers. If this happens, do you think you can handle the added workload?"

Flash and Shining smirked. On their own, they would probably have a hard time. But they weren't alone. They had an entire base of Plumbers to help keep the peace. They could do this. Earth was about to take its next big step in the universe. And no matter what, they would make sure everything worked out perfectly.


Author's Note

Well this was certainly a loaded chapter. Flash revealing his Revonnahgander form, a bunch of aliens arriving on earth, a mysterious group also showing up, and a new plot point added to the story. A town of aliens, built around an alien space port. How will this affect the story? Only time will tell.
