Chapter 1

The world hasn't been the same over these years. Equestria was mainly known for it Harmony and it's 6 heroes that can cleanse the Chaos if it ever becomes that anomaly. No one expected something like it to happen, but what they never knew was that Chaos was secretly in places they never knew of. Deep in space in the worlds that no one would expect was a world that stood in between Equestria and all other distant places was called Subspace. It was a dark void where anyone couldn't imagine to even step foot in. Every step you take felt like it didn't make a difference where you moved, you'll remain in the same spot. Inside the dark void was a little human girl asleep in the Subspace. Her raven colored haired flowed from nothingness as she was the void's victim. She had made deal with the devil and now was suppose to pay the price of staying in this prison for her failure, but for an unknown reason she had awoken and somehow became the first mortal to escape, but now is a world she not familiar with, Equestria. The only know memory she knows is her puppet, named Animus and her own name, Vanellope. She groaned as she slowly opened her eyes as she felt something brushing on her face. They were a bright brown and they stared towards the sky that she hasn't seen in what felt like an eternity. She turned beside her to see what was giving her a ticklish feeling on her cheek to see it was a purple scarf which came from another figure laying beside her. Vanellope instantly sat up and looked at it to see it was a robot that looked like it would tower her if it stood from her child body. It's eyes glowed red and it would appear to be a girl telling by the way it was made. It wore clothing like a girl so it was concluded that it was, she could only remember the name she can't place the design. She finally stood on her two feet and looked around with curiosity to see where she was. Just a normal meadow which she could place, but it was nothing like her homeworld. Mainly there was no candy around her and she seemed to be in the middle of nowhere. Vanellope folded her arms and sighed when she thought she just appeared out in the unknown.

Suddenly the robot beside her began to pull itself up and stare at Vanellope blankly as if it was waiting for her to do something. Vanellope tilted her head in confusion as she stared back at it for a moment till she stepped back from it only for it move up towards her.

" Okay...now things got a little weirder." She thought to herself. Her stare was broken when suddenly there was crash behind her making her turn to find the source of it. She was shocked to see it was a black and purple highlighted substance that began to take form into a bipedal monster and ran towards them. However as it happened time suddenly stopped for her as something began to speak in her head.

"Use Animus. She is your tool of mass destruction that I so generously gave you. Might as well use her to her fullest while you still can. Your control on her is in the mind use it!"

Vanellope turned towards the robot that was named Animus and looked surprised that she had the name stuck in her head and it was her. Time resumed as the monster neared her which gained her attention. The first thing in her mind that she wanted was for it to be destroyed. All of a sudden Animus rushed past her and it's hands turning into ferocious claws and sliced the monster in half making it melt back in it's oozy state and vanish. After this happened it's claws turned to normal hands again and hovered back towards the little girl ready for command. This made her grin when she already liked where this was going. She commanded it to follow her as she moved to a random direction hoping to find someplace of civilization.

Meanwhile

In a capital in Equestria known as Canterlot was where the royal castle where the princess known as Celestia sat her throne patiently till suddenly she gasped when she felt danger not far away in this world. It was definitely far beyond something she could comprehend, but whatever it was she felt the need to call out to the bearers of the Elements of Harmony, now. She sent a letter to her faithful student to have her and her friends come at once. To her surprise she only had to wait a few minutes when she saw flashes of light appear one by one revealing her guardians. Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Twilight. They all knelt for her when they called them.

" What is the problem Princess Celestia." Twilight asked, slightly nervous as always whenever she faced her mentor. Celestia sighed and told them to rise and they did as they were told, then Celestia sighed as she began.

" I only wanted your arrival just to warn you six about a danger that's dangerously close to us. Keep watch and don't lose your elements in case something happens." Celestia told them, simply. Twilight looked slightly confused from this and asked her what they needed to watch out for, Discord was believed to be good now, Sombra was defeated along with Chrysalis so she didn't find anything wrong. " Just keep a look out is all I want for now, it might be a false alarm." Celestia surely hoped so, she even felt scared at what she felt, but a part of her felt like nothing was to worry about at all. Twilight teleported her team out leaving her alone again except her guards. While back at library they all looked confused at what Celestia told them. It was unlikely that there would be trouble for them if there was none that could threaten them, they were too feared ( that's what Rainbow Dash claims). However they needed to trust her tactic and they all agreed to split up and looked around for anything strange. Rainbow Dash was alone apparently since she was too fast for any of them. Along with Twilight she was alone as well. Pinkie Pie was with Applejack and Rarity was with Fluttershy. All of them were in different parts of Canterlot as they went with their life while still scouting.

Meanwhile as Twilight was just sitting on a bench and reading a good book, she'd still periodically look away to see anything.

" Celestia can't be serious that something is wrong, no one in Equestria would try to threaten the world, we've already dealt with them so who could-"

" Excuse me." A childish voice spoke which interrupted Twilight from her thoughts. She placed the book on her lap to see a robotic red eyed girl which startled her. She heard a laugh and it turned out to be a little girl wearing a green hoodie, a black skirt and green striped leggings. " Wow, you should of saw the look on your face! It was priceless." She chuckled. The first thing that rushed in the purple unicorn's head was what was she? Then again she didn't want to be rude since it was a little girl as it seemed.

" Hello. You don't look to be around here. My name is Twilight. What's your name little one?" She asked. The girl placed her hands on her hips as her robot stood beside her with it's arms folded.

" My name is Vanellope nice to meet you Miss Twi. This is my puppet, her name is Animus." She introduced. Twilight liked the name Animus. Especially because of it's meaning of what her friends needed in their adventures. She was too interested in how she got it, but when she heard 'puppet' it gave her a sudden image of Discord making her shiver.

" This girl...she couldn't possibly be-" Twilight stopped herself and chuckled. She was just nervous about what was going on, that was all. This adorable little being in front of her couldn't be what she thought. " Come on Twilight, just because she has a puppet doesn't mean she was actually made by him" She assured herself. Vanellope looked at Twilight with concern from her being unresponsive so she snapped her fingers bringing her back to reality.

" So uh, mind telling me where I am?" Vanellope asked. Twilight got up from her chair and stretched her arms out as she got ready to escort her around.

" Your in the capital in my world, Equestria. It's called Canterlot." Twilight explained. Vanellope followed with Animus behind them as she gazed quietly during their tour. She got a few looks from some other Equestrians mostly because of her puppet which they feared, but they kept moving as Twilight decided to take her to Celestia to see if she knew anything about her. Twilight told Vanellope to grab her and Animus before they continued. The little girl was hesitate, but she ordered Animus to grab her free hand while she had Twilight's. They were ready and Twilight teleported them in front of Celestia. The second Vanellope stepped foot onto the the throne room the guards aimed their weapons at her and Animus which startled her. Twilight however assured them that she was alright and that she just needed to hear her out. The guards backed away and got back to their post as Celestia listened when Twilight began introductions, but forgot about Animus.

" It is an honor to meet you Vanellope. I'm curious on what your kind is called and who your friend is." Celestia spoke nicely. Vanellope cleared her throat and bowed along with her puppet as began.

" Your highness, the name of my species are call humans and as for my puppet here, her name is Animus." Vanellope told her with a respectful tone in her voice. She looked up towards the Princess with a smile on her face, but she frowned when she saw Celestia had a shocked look on her face. The little girl was confused by this, but Celestia had thoughts rushing in her head when she sensed the danger that was right in front of her. Her shock triggered her guards to attack Vanellope without an order. Vanellope gasped, but Animus came in front of her and grabbed their weapons stopping their charge. After this her puppet threw them back where they hit the wall that was beside Celestia's throne and nearly missed her. Twilight gasped at the counterattack that was made and noticed from the doors behind them was more guards, but the one that she was shocked to see was her older brother who stood in front of them, Shining Armor. Vanellope noticed him as he was the first to rush towards her with his sword out, before he could reach her though, Animus blocked him from his assault and grabbed his sword. However the blue haired captain jumped back from her and held his sword at the ready.

" Well, that's rude. Especially towards a child." Vanellope said mockingly as she folded her arms.

Vanellope's Battle Theme

" You don't belong here. Child or not you won't harm our home with your little gift." He threatened as he looked past Animus. Suddenly this distraction left him open as Animus struck him with her claws making him shout in agony as well as fall on one knee. Vanellope didn't really expect to hurt him severely, but they attacked her first for a reason unknown even for her. Shining stood up and this time he thrust his sword towards Animus, but she flew over him and landed behind him while still hovering mere inches from the floor. Her hands turned to claws and this time swung them as she turned trying to cut Shining's face open. He backflipped from that attack and turned around and tried to attack Vanellope instead as he held his sword from below ready for a under swing. He swung, but at the last second the little girl flashed blue and vanished before reappearing beside her puppet facing towards the other guards. A part of Vanellope was how did she become the enemy in the first place. She just got here, but now from a simple introduction she was being attacked from out of nowhere.

" Hey Ani. Take out those guards instead." She commanded as she pointed towards the guards blocking her escape. Animus dashed towards the guards slammed two into the walls and shot a laser from her eyes towards the last one which was struck point blank in the chest plate penetrating it. Vanellope ran towards the exit, but Shining Armor chased after her till Celestia told him to stop where he was to his shock.

" Your highness! Didn't she try to attack you?" He asked. Celestia looked down in shame. She let her fear get the better of her. Now who knows what'll happen after this misunderstanding.

" Shining Armor. It was only a misunderstanding. It was my fault and now she's going to think were going to kill her thanks to you." Celestia explained. She sighed as she looked back the door Vanellope and Animus escaped from. She stood up from her throne and walked past her student and her strongest knight. " I'll handle it myself don't worry." She assured them. Twilight and Shining Armor looked at each other for a second before looking at the princess who was now out the room. Twilight gave her brother a scowl which made him sigh at himself.

Vanellope and Animus were so far the mouse of the cat now as they were outnumbered from the number of guard after them and worse, she didn't know the layouts of the castle. So far it was left with chance for Vanellope as she went in random directions while Animus shot laser towards the guards to give her time to scout any forks in the castle that they came across. It felt like she's been in the castle for an hour. She hasn't found the exit yet, but she wasn't going in circles at least.

" Geez, how big is this castle?!" The little girl thought to herself after taking another turn with Animus behind her. She sighed in relief when she saw the exit in front of her finally and the guard's numbers were decreasing thanks to the puppet. She was finally outside and decided to take a breath for a moment from all the running. Suddenly there was multiple splashes heard which made her look up and gasped at seeing a purple and black version of herself with glowing red eyes and also saw a monster form of Animus with her. Along with that was another form of ooze that took the form of Celestia. Having one was bad enough, but three against two? Let's rephrase that 2 against 1 since both Vanellopes couldn't fight.

" Who to go for first?" Vanellope asked herself as she saw the fake version of herself and turned to Celestia. She barely knew any of Animus's abilities and the mind was her only link to control her which was good and bad. Things were getting difficult for her, but suddenly she heard footsteps behind her. She turned around to see Celestia walking towards her with a smile on her face till noticing the three monsters that appeared. She ran beside the little human girl and got looked in disgust at the copies of themselves.

" What are these things?" She asked.

" I don't know. But before I came here I fought one, but it was pretty easy, now I want to see how this'll be like." Vanellope answered as she jumped back behind her puppet. " When this is over, I hope you have an explanation for what just happened." She pointed towards the fake Animus and commanded her's to attack as Celestia held her hand out towards the fake. Animus dashed towards the fake, but the fake collided with her and began to push her back towards Vanellope who was slowly stepping back as she feared Animus was going to get thrown like a ragdoll. However she screamed in her head to not give up and push back with all she had. The Animus opposites pressed claws against each other as they slowly pushed each other back.

" Taking out the Puppet Master itself is the key of defeating a puppet. It has no life."

She turned to Celestia who ran towards her fake with holy light taking the shape of a sword around her hands while darkness surrounded the other's. Good, with the other distracted then Vanellope could fight without a distraction...hopefully. She ran towards herself and made a tight fist ready to hit her opposite. However it flashed white and teleported multiple times in a zigzag formation to gain a distance. Vanellope stumbled, but regained her balance and heard metal connect with metal from behind making her turn around. Animus protected her from a deadly blow from the opposite which made claws meet claws. " I need to be more careful." She thought. She looked back at the opposite and saw it staring blankly at her till it teleported in front of her with a punch ready. Vanellope was fast enough to duck then counterattack with an uppercut which connected and had enough force to knock her fake in the air. This attack made the Animus fake become motionless leaving her open, but Vanellope commanded her Animus to attack her while she was in the air. The puppet flew up and with a swift motion of it's claws it sliced fake Vanellope in half and made it vanish into ooze till it was nothing. The fake Animus began turning to ooze as well and sunk into the ground.

She looked at Celestia who was swiftly dodging and attacking her fake while the other did the same. The two alicorns flew up and continued on till suddenly Animus interfered and grabbed onto the fake Celestia and dived down towards the ground where they both landed hard, the robot puppet crushing the monster underneath. Animus came hovered back next to Vanellope as Celestia descended and walked towards the little puppet user.

" Now. I believe I that I have an apology to give you for my rude behavior. You see, when you mentioned that you had a puppet I was afraid." She said.

" Why?" Vanellope asked with a confused look.

" A few months ago an evil being named Discord. He was a Puppet Master. He made every Equestrian citizen suffer as his to control and it was far difficult for us to take care of. We were lucky to even use the Elements of Harmony. Anyway, I'm sorry for being a terrible host especially someone not from this world." Celestia apologized.

" It is alright princess. You know I happen to remember that I was a princess back in my world, well actually a president." Vanellope told her. Celestia was silent, but suddenly remembered about the creatures they fought.

" Do you think there could be more of those things we fought?"

" Beats me. I just hope I can remember everything while I still can."

Rainbow Dash

There was loud crashes coming from the city of Canterlot which created panic for civilians. Rainbow Dash was seen landing on her back when being struck by a figure. A blue hedgehog with bright green eyes landed and saw Rainbow Dash slowly standing up and shaking off the hit she took.

" Wow. That was so slow." He insulted. Rainbow Dash growled and flew towards him with all her speed, but at the last second when she was inches from him, the hedgehog moved and kicked her in the stomach sending her into a bench. She groaned and slowly stood up again. For just the first two minutes of this fight with the hedgehog who called him Sonic, she was already getting beat badly. Sonic ran towards her and appeared right beside her in a instant and attempted to punch her, but this time she was able to grab his arm to his shock and threw him over her shoulder. As he landed on the floor, Rainbow Dash stomped on his chest and began to pull on his arm like she trying to tear it off ( she was just too pissed) making the hedgehog scream.

" Now. Speak. What are you doing in my world!" She yelled. Sonic struggled to get her off of him, but it appeared she was somehow too strong for him to escape so he stopped struggling and looked at Rainbow Dash who didn't release pressure from his arm. Sonic chuckled, but didn't answer which only made Rainbow Dash grin. " Suit yourself." She placed a lot more pressure on his arm which made him scream out louder. His scream began to cease when she placed his arm on the original pressure.

" We can do this all day. Unless Celestia comes here to detain you or I rip your arm off, we'll be like this all month for all I care." Rainbow Dash said. Sonic was now at the mercy and now was in a situation where his arm was at stake. The cyan Pegasus waited patiently as she restrained him.

Rarity and Fluttershy

It all started as a peaceful day for a cup of tea between the fashion unicorn and shy Pegasus. They were quiet and made small talk throughout the search and found nothing out of the ordinary except for seeing Twilight walking with a little raven haired girl and a hovering robot behind her. This caught both their attention as they looked at the girl cautiously since the robot was what they feared most of all. Luckily though it didn't seem to bring trouble as it just followed Twilight and Fluttershy.

" W-who was Twilight j-just with back there?" Fluttershy asked as they were now walking together after that scene they saw. Rarity looked at Fluttershy with an assuring look.

" I'm sure it's nothing to worry about if she's with Twilight darling. Besides, she might be lost and wants to find a way home." Rarity answered calmly. Fluttershy nodded and began to calm down. However what they never noticed a figure that was stalking the whole city, but mainly those two. A well dressed man wearing purple and wore a mask covering the upper part of his face and had spiky blonde hair. Behind him was a large robot behind him which appeared female and wore a red dress with a red hat and blonde hair as well. It's eyes glowed blue. The man smirked and jumped down from the small building that he was standing on top of and landed directly in front of Rarity and Fluttershy, startling them. " Ugh, how rude to startle a lady like that!" Rarity scowled. The man chuckled in response and cleared his throat as he began to speak.

" My apologies madame, allow me to introduce myself before I get to the point of things. My name is Relius Clover. I'm not from here and I was just curious as to where I am and what the name of your species are." He began.

" Hmph, well lucky for you I'm a calm lady and I accept your apology. My name is Rarity and this is my friend Fluttershy. Your in the capital of our world Equestria, Canterlot. As for species we have three kinds but were all called Equestrians either way." Rarity said.

" Three you say? This is already getting me interested. I hope you don't mind telling me what exactly makes these species different." Relius asked. Rarity gave him an uneasy look. Just by looking he seemed like bad news, but this kind of information wasn't very critical. It was simple.

" In case you didn't noticed the difference between us. I have a horn and she has wings. I'm a unicorn and Fluttershy is a Pegasus. Unicorns possess the powerful magic and Pegasus have speed, fly and control the weather, lastly the normal Equestrians are just normal, but have strength." Rarity explained. Relius's grin turned wider at hearing this, but one thing was that Rarity hid the Alicorn kind. Fluttershy noticed and understood why and was perfectly quiet about it.

" Hmm, I wonder what makes your kind possess these abilities then. It was a nice talk, but now I have test subjects to process. Ignis!" He called. The female robot jumped down from above and suddenly grabbed Fluttershy while Rarity was able to sidestep out the way. When she saw Fluttershy get caught she gasped.

" Let her go you psychotic ruffian!" She shouted. Rarity went in her pocket in her jeans to pull out a silver gem and convert it into a crystal gladius in her hand.

Soundtrack- Experimental Nightmare

Relius laughed as Ignis came back to him with Fluttershy in her grasp who was squirming in her grasp and screaming for help. Relius snapped his fingers as Ignis dropped Fluttershy only for her to land on a blue mystical circle with white outlines. Fluttershy tried to move, but she found herself in a binding spell which got her more scared.

" Don't worry. I'll get you out." Rarity assured. She threw four gems in the ground where they began to form into herself as a crystal. Two began to run towards Ignis while others came towards Relius himself. Ignis slapped away one of them, but it suddenly exploded when she made contact with the gem clones. Along with this a blue orb was left of it and it made it's way inside Rarity and gave her an adrenaline rushing inside and her blade being covered by a fiery aura. Relius was shocked by this and tried to avoid the gems as best he could while Ignis suffered another explosion making Rarity even stronger and the aura becoming more fiery.

" Ugh, she's not bad already." Relius thought as he avoided a touch from the gem and jumped back from it.

Astral Heat: Sadistic Surge

" This is enough." Rarity thought as she rushed towards Ignis and thrust her fiery blade through her chest till moving on towards Relius. " You'll regret taking my friend!" She yelled. She cut Relius across his chest making him grunt then she rapidly thrust her blade in machine gun speed till her gem took the shape of a purple orb and she pressed it against his chest along with throwing him up in the air making in explosion from the orb as he was only a few feet in the air. Rarity quickly rushed towards Fluttershy and tried to pull her out of the circle, but it began to create a bit of resistance when she did, but she was able to get her out anyway before she Relius recovered and landed safely, but Rarity and Fluttershy were already on the run.

" Hmph, their expendable anyway. I guess I'll just have to search for another." Relius told himself as he began to walk the opposite direction with Ignis behind him. Catching his view though was a little raven haired girl with a robot following behind her which made Relius gasp. He moved himself in the closer as he watched her closely.

Vanellope and Animus

" Wow, good to know that Celestia is having me live in that castle. Reminds me of home, I think." Vanellope thought as she walked through the city. " I just hope I don't have to worry about another enemy again."

" Why it's about time that I met a fellow human. A Puppet Master no less." Relius spoke which caught Vanellope's attention. She turned to look up facing him and suddenly felt intimidated just by how he looked and his puppet looked more deadly than her's any day. Relius knelt down to her see her face to face and smirked a bit.

" My name is Relius Clover. I know it may seem weird to you to have a grown man speaking to a little girl, but I only want to talk." He said, firmly. Vanellope already wanted to leave just by how he looked at her even though he wore a mask which was the creepy part about it. Relius stood back up to see Animus and noticed the fact she had red eyes which made him wonder if she was even aware of what she was. Suddenly Animus aimed her claws at him which made him flinch while Ignis was about to react by attacking, but he stopped her.

" Animus. That's rude. Don't do that next time okay?" Vanellope sighed in irritation of what happened and apologized to Relius from that event.

" So your doll reacts to someone you don't know am I right?" Relius asked. Vanellope shrugged.

" A voice in my head told me that I control it with my mind, but this time I didn't give no order and it's not possible for it to happen to anyone. I guess only when she feels I'm threatened." Vanellope explained. Relius nodded in understanding and suddenly out of nowhere Ignis dashed and tackled Animus towards the ground and had her claws up, but Animus blocked with her own claws.

Soundtrack-Puppet Master of Courage

Relius took the opportunity to grab Vanellope and lift her up and laugh. Vanellope struggled in his grasp as he her in a good grip.

" Now to take you someplace quiet and let my experiments begin on you and your feeble doll." Relius laughed. However his laugh was stopped when Vanellope teleported from his grasp when she flashed blue and was now behind him and kicked him to his leg making him grunt and fall on one knee. Vanellope then ran off his back and began to rapidly give him punches, but it was stopped when he backhanded her causing her to fall onto her stomach and left a red mark on her cheek. Vanellope began to stand up, but was grabbed her leg and was now hanging upside down in his grasp. The little Puppet user noticed that Animus was still struggling against Ignis who was slowly over powering her. She couldn't lose, if she did who knows what he'll do her which was what she feared. She won two fights, but Relius was a whole different level for her. She saw now helplessly when Ignis slowly overpowered Animus. Suddenly a bright light began to form from her and Animus which shocked Relius.

Chapter 2

Relius gasped at seeing the light that Vanellope and Animus were emitting which caused him to drop her to the floor. Vanellope suddenly began to hover from the ground and was even looking a bit confused at what was happening. Thoughts rushed in her head as she was suddenly feeling herself pressing against Animus. Whatever was happening to her she only hoped it was good. The light began intensify around them which drew attention to anyone far away and made Relius nervous for a moment, but he snapped his fingers giving Ignis the signal to dash forward to interrupt the power Vanellope was about to gain. The red dressed puppet swiped it's claws down in between the little girl and Animus and to Relius' satisfaction it actually broke what was about to happen, splitting Vanellope and her puppet apart making her fall to her knees taking deep breaths. She was starting to think this would actually to get pulled off, but it was ruined and now she could be at the mercy of the other Puppet user. Relius smirked as he began to stroke his chin.

" Hmm, should I dispatch you or should I just kill you here and now. Either way you or your puppet could make excellent subjects for me to see just what hides within your soul." Relius spoke. He began to walk towards her as he even noticed that Animus looked to be disabled. Things seemed to be going in his favor. Relius stopped as Ignis held her claws up ready to bring down the final blow. Vanelope looked up towards the puppet and suddenly a smile spread across her face.

" Animus now!" She commanded. Animus suddenly began to move and a white orb emerged on it's chest and aimed at Ignis. Relius gasped then the orb was released and hit Relius' puppet point blank towards it's face. However this wasn't all Animus began to shoot more in machine gun speed towards both Ignis and Relius which instantly overwhelmed them, while behind her was Vanellope who laughed at her comeback. " My puppets first ability, Destrudo. All i can tell you is watch where you dodge cause these orbs come from all directions that you wouldn't expect." Vanellope told Relius as he was having a hard time evading as everywhere he tried to dodge he's just get hit by another orb while Ignis was getting hit by all the orbs coming at her. Eventually she noticed that Relius was retreating which made her groan in annoyance. " Yeah, I'm the one getting her butt handed and when it's him, he doesn't take it like a man." Vanellope sighed and told Animus to stop as she was only firing aimlessly and caused damage to the streets and walls. She laughed nervously and rubbed the back of her head sheepishly at this, she might of overdid it a bit.

Meanwhile, Rarity and Fluttershy saw this event and looked in amazement at what Vanellope had done. Either she was a destined warrior or she was perhaps something else. Whatever it was it sure did get Relius running, for now. Vanellope began to walk away from the damage she left as some citizens examined it a few seconds after she was gone. Rarity was impressed as Fluttershy was intimidated from what she saw. The fashion unicorn folded her arms as she began to go deep in thought till suddenly Fluttershy yelped catching her attention.

" What is it Fluttershy?" She asked. Fluttershy was shivering and according to her ability of an Element she could tell if something was off, but not as better as Pinkie Pie, but still it was accurate.

" That little girl. I sensed something awful coming from her after that light we just saw. M-maybe she's the danger Celestia warned us about." She answered softly. Rarity seemed unsure about that since even if Vanellope's aura seemed wrong her spirit told her that she defeated Relius and rid him of this city and possibly this world by her own honor. Of course she couldn't sense anyone's aura or spirit, it was Pinkie Pie's job. She still shook her head at Fluttershy's worries and told her that it must of been a trick. Perhaps Vanellope had a bad aura, but she uses it to protect and not destroy...well it's already in front of them so she scratched that out. That was besides the point, she could of already assaulted Canterlot by now if she was bad. " She could be waiting." Fluttershy said worriedly.

" Don't worry darling. Even if she did, that little girl would of been out numbered and out matched. So what if she has a bodyguard. Everything has a weakness." Rarity assured. Fluttershy nodded hesitantly and followed the unicorn as she began to walk away. Chaos was flowing, no one knew who it was or where it could be, but there was something horrible that was getting ready to happen and it may not take the Elements of Harmony to eliminate it, they would need something bigger then they could ever wish.

Rainbow Dash-Celestia's Castle

" Were getting nothing out of this guy. Can I just get to brutal measures now?" Rainbow Dash asked. The being known as Sonic that Rainbow Dash happened to unexpectedly encounter was now inside Celestia's castle tied up and completely unable to move as Celestia was sitting on her throne staring at him. She had asked him a few questions, but barely any were answered to her satisfaction. She even used her Royal Voice slightly when she was starting to get annoyed from his rudeness. He would make jokes which gave Rainbow Dash the urge to just punch him to the moon so hard it made her fist print on it and cracked. Unfortunately though, she can't since he was helpless enough. Celestia began to remember when she met Vanellope, maybe he could be linked when she arrived, or she could lock him in a dungeon while he was still tied up since she had a feeling this speedy guy could just go right through it. She tried option one first just to make sure.

" Sonic, this is your last chance that I'm giving you to save yourself to get locked away in a world that you know nothing of. I happened to have met a little girl not a while ago. She happened to have a puppet along with her. Know anyone of this description?" Celestia asked firmly. Sonic thought for a moment as he went through his memories of his own friends if he knew of anyone of that description. Suddenly it struck him as he looked up towards Celestia with a grin.

" I know who your talking about. She came to my world a few years ago," He started. " She came to my world during one of my usual running and stunts till she suddenly attacked out of nowhere. I don't know that name, but I'm sure I know who your talking about if you tell me anything else, that description was a LITTLE broad." Sonic said.

" Raven colored hair. Hazel eyes. Her puppet wears a dark blue dress." Celestia shortened the description for him and Sonic nodded.

" Yep. She attacked my world out of nowhere. Man was she powerful, for a child like her she knows how to use power when it's given. I think she was defeated though." Sonic told her. Celestia looked confused. Vanellope? Destruction caused by her? She was too nice just from seeing her. Celestia sneered at Sonic from his exclamation and decided to go a little deeper on what he was saying.

" Can you go into a little more detail. What was she like when you met her?" She asked him with the same firm voice.

" Met her? She just came out of no where and attacked like it was revenge. Kill human civilians along with my own race. Luckily it wasn't my friends. She easily defeated them, but didn't kill them. But I wasn't that lucky and I had my butt handed to me even in my stronger state. That machine is something else." Celestia tilted her head at this. Vanellope wasn't no cyborg. None of her features showed any sign of a cybernetic and not to mention she could of sensed the fact that she was one which would of made her keep a closer eye on her. She obviously knew he was lying at this point, but she decided to stall a little longer since what Sonic is saying could be another powerful foe among them.

" Now you catch my attention. I'll just go on and be straight and tell that you are lying that Vanellope did this. She's only a child and even if she did have such power like that, she would destroy herself in the process."

" Vanellope? Now you lost me again. The description you said was okay, but name doesn't ring a bell. If she's here your in danger."

" Let me say it again. She's only a child, at least 7 at most. You must be speaking of someone in your past."

" I want to see just who your talking about. Maybe then if they look alike I can prove you how relevant they are." Sonic challenged. Celestia thought for a moment from what she was told. Vanellope being a destructive monster? There was obvious contradictions from this, but there was always possibilities and Vanellope being Chaos could be possible since she did feel it when she first laid eyes on her. Her mind was now racing from so many thoughts on Vanellope. They just meet and now this animal in front of her says she's bad news. Rainbow Dash noticed her trance and showed a bit of concern on her face as she was about to reach her, but stopped.

" Are you okay?" She asked simply. No, she most certainly wasn't.

" Yes, I'm okay. I was only thinking." She told her. " Guards, place this creature in the dungeon until further notice." Celestia commanded. Two guards walked over to Sonic and got him to his feet and started pushing him away.

" Okay, don't say I didn't warn you." Sonic sang. As he was gone Rainbow Dash scoffed.

" About time he was gone. Another word from him and I'd send him to the freakin' moon." She looked back at Celestia noticing she was thinking again which made her wonder what she was thinking about. She never met Vanellope yet so she wasn't aware of anything so far. She wanted to find out herself and her one way of knowing where to find her was to the find the unusual citizen. She walked out the castle leaving Celestia alone to her thoughts as she began to take flight and find this ' Vanellope.'

Applejack and Pinkie Pie

During this whole search Pinkie Pie and Applejack had found nothing in Canterlot that could harm a fly along with a young Equestrian. Pinkie Pie was getting bored and Applejack was nearing to conclude nothing was going wrong at all. The thinking was starting to hurt her head and decided to finally relax for a moment. The cowgirl and party girl were laying in the grass of a park looking in the sky as a breeze hit.

" So far we've found nothin' guess there ain't nothin' to worry about." Applejack sighed. She heard Pinkie Pie giggle making her turn towards her with confusion.

" It's okay. Better to have no danger at all then danger. I mean think Applejack, who would want a world of Chaos? We are Harmony and our job is to keep it that way. Of course my job is to make sure everyone starts and ends a day with a smile on their face." Pinkie Pie told her. That was true and Applejack obviously knew that. She may not have as high of an intellect as everyone else, but she knew when something was off or something was going to happen. If there was no harmony then Twilight's magic could be used for something evil, Rainbow Dash could turn her back on her friends, Fluttershy would turn from a kind and shy Pegasus to a, Applejack shook away that thought. She would be a big liar to deceive everyone she met and Pinkie Pie would make everyone miserable. That needed to be avoided and she wanted to use every part of her soul to make it happen. Suddenly Pinkie Pie's ear twitched which she noticed. Pinkie quickly sat up and looked around the park for anything suspicious as Applejack began to stand up to look herself.

" See anything sugarcube?" Applejack asked her. Pinkie stood up as well continuing to look around. So far they've found no danger which made them soften their awareness. Pinkie Pie tilted her head in confusion as she made her ear twitch this time.

" I know I sensed something. This is the first time my Pinkie Sense actually failed me." Applejack folded her arms and groaned. However there was suddenly a loud and annoying noise that caught both of their attention. They both followed it and both noticed two big creatures standing at a distance in front of them. One was a large blue duck who wore a red robe and crown on his head in his hand was a large hammer that was as tall as himself. The other creature was a large brown furred gorilla with a red tie on it. They were both staring at each other for a moment till suddenly noticing the two Equestrians.

" Who the heck are you?" The duck asked rudely. Applejack got in a fighting stance as Pinkie Pie took a step back. The gorilla suddenly seemed to have panicked and charged at Applejack with a fist up and slammed it down on Applejack. There was loud smack as it's fist made contact, but to the duck's shock as well as the gorilla's Applejack caught it over her head with one hand. She pushed it back making the gorilla stagger back. " Wow. If your able to stop an attack from Donkey Kong then I wanna see how you handle mine!" The duck shouted as he ran towards Applejack, but during the middle of his slow charge Pinkie Pie stood in front of him and held her foot out making him trip and fall face-first in the grass. Pinkie Pie giggled then laughed at this which angered the duck as he madly stood up. " You dare attack King Dedede! You will be taken out for your foolishness!"

Soundtrack-Battle of the Large Beasts

Dedede swung at Pinkie Pie with his hammer which made her bend back to evade as well as having her ear twitch during the process. Applejack ran towards Donkey Kong as Pinkie Pie handled him and made a fist towards the gorilla when he recovered. Right when Donkey Kong was aware of his surroundings he was suddenly caught by a haymaker across his face by Applejack. Usually this victim would of been sent flying probably into the lake that was not far from them, but this was a large beast she was facing. Donkey shook his head to pull himself together and made a punch himself with a fist 10 times larger then the cowgirl's. Seeing the full size of it Applejack used her arms to block the blow coming towards her, but the force was still incredible sending her sliding a short distance.

" Uh, TAKE COVER!" Pinkie Pie announced as she ran in between them while they both looked up noticing Dedede in the air with his hammer aimed down.

" Uh, oh." Applejack muttered.

Super Smash: Destructive Dive of the King

Applejack used all the speed she had to jump back multiple times and used to cartwheels and backflips when Dedede slammed down creating large fire pillars from the ground as well as sending Donkey Kong flying from the force on the ground. Things slowly settled when the pillars began to dissipate where Dedede was on one knee regaining his breath. This was the perfect opening for Applejack as she charged towards the large duck and jumped high above him ready for a quick finish.

Astral Heat: Sovereign Fist

" Eat this!" Applejack dived down and slamming her fist into the ground and this turned out to be more devastating then Dedede's assault as her fist caused herself make a minor explosion which he was blown back by. He screamed in pain from the assault, after this small fiery rocks falling to the ground around Applejack. Pinkie Pie ran to Applejack and squealed at what she just saw.

" Oh my gosh! I never knew you had that much strength in you Applejack!" She said excitedly. Applejack chuckled and blushed a little at the compliments that Pinkie Pie gave her. Now that they were taken care of they decided to bring them to Princess Celestia for imprisonment, but the hardest thing they had to deal with now was carrying them. Applejack was the main one doing it while Pinkie Pie was happily skipping around her making sure that they didn't fall. " I still can't believe that your not only able to take on big creatures like those, but you can carry them too?! Oh how much more great can a friend like you be?" She asked. As she skipped along behind the cowgirl her hands were flinging in front of her on every step and didn't realize she was so close behind that she accidentally slapped Applejack's butt. Applejack instantly blushed and lost her strength to carry them and yelped when she almost got squashed by the two large animals. As she picked them back up she glared at Pinkie Pie who was looking confused at her lacking of strength. " Are you okay? You just starting lacking off. Maybe I should call you Lacking Girl from now on huh?" Pinkie Pie asked.

" Call me that and let's see how you like revenge real rough." She uttered.

" But your not a stallion."

" I DON'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT!" After a few minutes of a walk they had and exercise for Applejack they walked in through the doors of Celestia's throne room to find her in a thinking state which had them confused. They walked up towards her where the Element of Honest placed Dedede and Donkey Kong on the ground and stretched from how much their weight made her body tilt. Celestia looked up to notice them and saw the two large figures that were still out cold and took interest in things already.

" New creatures possibly from another world?" Celestia asked. This made Applejack groan when she heard 'others' from the princess.

" Are you serious? More of these things your highness?" Applejack asked. Celestia chuckled and assured they were less over-sized. Pinkie Pie and Applejack sighed in relief even though Celestia wasn't sure if there was. Things coming from other worlds to Equestria or possibly going where they shouldn't belong, what did this mean and is Vanellope probably behind this without even knowing or is she just pretending? She had to be sure to tell Luna the situation when it's her turn to take charge and see if she can sort it out somehow. It was nearly time for it to turn to night so she had to brief her now.

" I'll have Luna take care of it for you. Get some rest or keep watch if you want. Guards tie the creatures down." She said calmly. Her guards rushed towards the creatures as one of them was a unicorn who cast binding spell on the two creatures, the result was that they a blue and white outlined mystical circle below them. With this Celestia began to leave to tell her sister until suddenly the Princess of the Moon was already coming in as her bright blue eyes widened at seeing the two large creatures in front of her. Everyone looked at her to see her confused expression which turned stern.

" What has happened here?" She asked. Celestia walked towards her little sister and began to slowly explain things that are happening so far that even nighttime could be in danger at the moment. Explaining about what she felt in the beginning and having Mane 6 look around for anything strange and so far and then explained about Sonic who's imprisoned for now and was about to explain about Vanellope and Animus until suddenly another figure came running in to be Vanellope and Animus behind her conveniently. She stopped when she saw Luna who stared at her firmly and her eyes already made Vanellope a little intimidated. Celestia walked over beside the little girl and placed a hand on her shoulder as she was about to explain about her.

" Vanellope, this is my sister Luna. Do not be afraid it's just her first time seeing you." She assured. She looked at Luna. " Sister, Vanellope came her not long ago and was the first to see me from Twilight. Her robot behind you is Animus and you may be surprised on what she is to her. She's a...puppet." She explained. Luna's expression turned dangerous towards Vanellope when she heard this and folded her arms as she was about to make her remark.

" Then why isn't she in the dungeon like the rest? She could be Discord's disciple for all I care." Luna spoke harshly which made Vanellope fume.

" Hey! I barely survived when a masked man came and attacked me out of nowhere and he had a puppet as well! So how am I the bad guy?" Vanellope asked. Her rage triggered Animus to have a blue orb form in her hands and aimed at Luna which she noticed. " Not now Animus put it away." She said. The orb vanished and now the puppet was in a motionless state except it's hovering. Luna now looked back Vanellope with the same stern look on her face while Vanellope glared at her. Celestia was about to tell them to calm down when suddenly a loud voice boomed from behind them.

"YOU!!!" Everyone turned to see that it was none other then Dedede who was awoke, but noticed her couldn't step out of the circle, but could move his arms. He pointed towards Vanellope then gasped when he saw Animus who was now looking towards him.There was silence for a moment when his stare turned into a deathly glare back at Vanellope.

" You are dead you little vermin! You think hiding inside a child's body will fool me? You got another thing coming once I get out this magic!" Vanellope looked amused at first when he began to struggle to fight the spell that he was being placed in, but after a few minutes of watching he began to in inhale air which surprisingly made him float in the air and shocked Celestia.

" Interesting. He's able to absorb the air around him to make himself less dense. Impressive for someone so large." Luna taunted. Dedede growled as he stomped towards the group until getting sucker punched in the jaw by Applejack which sent him flying against a wall and even caused cracks which crumbled underneath him.

" Did I overdo it?" Applejack asked, rubbing the back her head sheepishly.

" A little." Celestia answered.

" He deserved it." Vanellope and Luna said in unison making them glare back at each other.

" Wow! You completely beat the crap out of him." Pinkie Pie complemented with a wink.

" I'll call the royal carpenter." The guards spoke as they walked away from their post. After this event Luna and Celestia were standing side by side as Vanellope and Animus were as well. Everything was briefed and now Celestia had to leave for today and Luna was under rule. There was a moment of silence as Luna was looking at Vanellope with some thought now while Vanellope was whistling and looking around till she finally took closer notice at Luna's flowing hair.

" Uh, how do you and Celestia get your hair so 'flowy' and bright?" She asked. Her question however was ignored as Luna asked a question based off from something said earlier.

" What being attacked you young foal?" She asked firmly. Vanellope was somewhat annoyed about Luna's outspoken and firm personality since it probably got them nowhere.

" Uh, his name. It was Relius I think. His puppet's name I don't know. I was too dizzy to understand." Vanellope answered. Luna understood and so far was curious on where she came from and what exactly the fuss was that just happened. But, before she could Vanellope asked her the same unnecessary question again which made her groan.

" All full grown Alicorns get their hair like this. If you want to know what an Alicorn is outsider it's an Equestrian who possess the features of a Unicorn and Pegasus and their extremely rare." She answered in an irritated tone. Applejack and Pinkie Pie stepped into the conversation with Pinkie first to speak first excited at meeting someone and something new.

" Ooo! A new creature! She looks so much like us and can speak! This calls for a par-," Applejack cut her off as she covered her mouth.

" What she meant to say was, my name is Pinkie Pie. My name is Applejack and it's nice to meet you,er." Applejack chuckled nervously when she forgot Vanellope's name.

" Vanellope, got it memorized?" She asked. Applejack nodded. Suddenly crashes were heard along with screams from guards. Along with this was crash through the wall revealing a fallen guard and standing in the hole in the wall was a blue spiky headed creature that was none other than Sonic the Hedgehog.

" Man. You guys need to use more harder bindings in order to stop me." He said. He looked at Vanellope for a moment as she stared back. He suddenly let out a gasp and growled. He balled his hands into fist and suddenly ran towards Vanellope ending up in front of her in a instant with a punch about to connect to her face, but Animus came just in time to tackle him to the floor and held her claws up ready to bring them down on him. However he kicked her off of him and jumped back up with a back flip. " You again! Don't think hiding in that body will save you. It just makes you easy to beat now." Sonic told her.

" Uh, oh." Vanellope said with a bit of sarcasm.

Soundtrack-Who's Gonna Rock the Place

Animus dashed towards Sonic with her claws ready to swipe at him, but the speedy hedgehog easily dodged the attack and went towards Vanellope again who this time flashed blue as Sonic landed a punch, but it went right through her. Sonic was shocked by this which gave him a perfect opening for Animus to fire a red laser from her eyes and struck him to his chest. He backed away instantly gaining a distance while Vanellope teleported to a distance. Luna sighed as she now had to get involved to stop this pointless battle to her. She ran towards Sonic while Sonic was about to take off towards her. Time slowed around them as Luna noticed his movement about to run which made her get ready. Sonic took off towards her and at that moment Luna jumped over him with a front flip over his head and used her wings to hover upside down and gasped when Sonic back flipped towards her with a kick that would land if she didn't react. She placed her arms in front of her as she blocked the attack and grabbed his leg and was now right side up and threw Sonic to the ground and dived down landing on his chest with her arms folded.

" Get off of me! She's the real enemy here!" Sonic shouted as he glared at Vanellope while struggling to get away from the Princess of the Night.

" Who are you and what business do you have with the girl?" She asked. Vanellope groaned when she just introduced herself to her and she forgot.

" Didn't I tell you my name is Vanello...ugh never mind." She grumbled.

" She's a murderer! She killed so many people and hurt my friends and now she's going to do it to you guys! LET ME GO!" He yelled. Suddenly Sonic escaped from under Luna by somehow slipping past with his speed and ran towards Vanellope with rage and jumped towards her with a punch reeled back.

Rainbow Dash

It was starting to turn dark as Rainbow Dash wanted to find Vanellope and speak with her herself, but had no luck. She mumbled to herself about how things just couldn't be peaceful enough for her practice her skills or even be with someone she needed to see. She was now in the middle of a meadow where she stopped and heard a thud from a distance. She spread her wings to fly off to see what it was that caused this. What she didn't realize was the fact that she was about to get involved in something life threatening to her people. As she flew she noticed that something large, no GIGANTIC was at a distance which made her get a bad feeling at first till she heard a yells at a distance.

" AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" One was feminine and it sounded familiar to her.

" SPITFIRE!" A male yelled.

" UGH! SIS WHERE ARE YOU!" One was young and it sounded all to well to Rainbow Dash's ears. In a instant she made a Sonic Rainboom and rammed herself into the gigantic monster in front of her, but she only slightly damaged herself when she did this and grunts when she falls down, but someone from the ground grabbed her and began to glide.

" Gotcha!" The same feminine voice from before, it belonged to a fire haired colored Pegasus that wore a very familiar blue and yellow jump suit and blue goggles on her head. Her face was a bright orange and Rainbow Dash instantly knew who this was, he favorite Wonderbolt Spitfire. They landed and Rainbow Dash saw the rest that was with her, Soarin and a cyan Pegasus like her with red, yellow, and purple hair. However his wings were a dead, colorless grey which made Rainbow Dash sad inside since this was her young 13 year old brother Leo Flare. They were both 3 years apart and so far the only family they got. Leo wore a brown cloak around his body that only revealed his motionless wings due to his medical condition. Discoloration in his wings that made him unable to fly, or was suppose to...instead it affected his flying a lot, but he could still soar through the sky with her.

" So what's going on here?" Rainbow Dash asked as she looked up towards the giant in front of them that was brightly multicolored. Spitfire, Soarin, and Leo were panting as they could barely speak right now due to what they've went through, but Spitfire was able to speak up first.

" This giant just came out of nowhere while me and Soarin were practicing for our performance. It knocked us off course and some of our crew is now missing because of him. He's blocking the forest behind him and so far were not doing a good job getting past him." Spitfire explained. Rainbow Dash turned to Leo to see what his exclamation was.

" I-I was with them while you were gone with Celestia and the last thing I saw was like 4 members getting knocked away and now were stuck here to deal with it. I was hoping you'd show up since my flying sucks because of my useless wings." Leo groaned as he looked down in shame. Although he was not so happy with himself, his older sister was just glad he survived. Now they had a BIG problem to deal with and it was completely not worth it.

" So have any idea how to kill it?" Rainbow Dash asked.

" I'm not sure you can." Soarin said nervously.

" Well...we could try going on top of it or inside, maybe there's a weakness there." Leo wondered.

" If that's the case who goes?" Rainbow Dash asked. Soarin and Leo looked at the girls who both face palmed at this.

" I understand Leo not wanting do this since he can't, but you Soarin really?" Spitfire asked, firmly. Soarin chuckled nervously as he began to back away. Rainbow Dash and Spitfire looked at each other before seeing the giant that began to roar. It's roar was so loud it emitted a soundwave that levitated everyone and blew away some trees.

" First we need to make an opening and by that is making it bend over." Soarin told them.

Chapter 3

Vanellope and Animus

Sonic managed to land a fist against Vanellope's jaw which made her scream and fall onto the floor. She didn't react fast enough to teleport, Luna was mostly in shock due to the fact Sonic was able to escape that made one thought go through her head, " So fast." Sonic scoffed and was about to make a grab for the little girl until suddenly Applejack rushed at him and struck him with a lariat out of now where causing to body to crash hard on the floor.

" GAH!" Sonic yelped as he suddenly felt Applejack's hand around his throat. She began to choke the hedgehog to death for a moment until suddenly he vanished as a blue blur again to her annoyance. Everyone looked around for him and suddenly noticed that he was standing right in front of the throne, catching his breath and took another glimpse at Vanellope with a cold glare as she was standing up with Animus behind her. " Your a cold murderer. You should of killed me while you had the chance, but no you hide yourself inside a kid's body with your little robot. I may not know where your from, but I can tell your bad news from the very beginning." Vanellope finally had enough of this talk that she knew nothing about. She lost her memory and ends up here so how could she know about what happened? He could be lying for all she cared and it was already proved that she isn't the bad guy since she never attacked Equestria from as long as she got here.

" You know what. Just shut up!" Vanellope snapped which made Sonic flinch. " I just appeared out of nowhere and I only remember my name and Animus. I don't know about your world...I don't know about what I did to you...and I don't remember the destruction I caused in the past! You may have the wrong person since I don't match the description your talking about! Also I just met with a masked man who just happened to attack me and he didn't look friendly, do I also need to mention he has a puppet as well? So if your saying this person had a puppet try finding him instead!" There was silence at her outburst that even shocked Luna and Sonic's eyes widened that a little girl that he believed needed to be stopped just yelled at him. His fury was down a bit, but he was still upset on the outside and furious inside.

" The being that attacked was female so it couldn't be who your talking about. As for why it was you is because she looks exactly like you. Your hair, same look in your eyes, pretty much everything you have, but she looks more like a human teen-" Vanellope cut him off there as she assumed it was a contradiction, she may have lost her memory but it was worth a try.

" She could be my older sister?"

" No. She's a cyborg." Sonic replied quickly. " Of course you look fully human. But I don't trust your robot." Animus suddenly rushed towards Sonic again which was a command given by Vanellope and Sonic was ready as they both attacked each other. Sonic went for a jab as Animus when for an uppercut and their fist collided stopping both of their attack. They pulled back and this time one of Animus' hands turned to claws and swiped at the hedgehog only for him to dash behind her and landed a punch on her back, but the puppet only turned around with a backhand that Sonic easily grabbed. However this only ended with Animus throwing Sonic in the air and her claws now back out and Sonic was helpless as all Animus needed to do was time her swing and Sonic will be in halves or maybe even fours. The hedgehog fell and was now looking as Animus was about to end him and closed his eyes.

Instead Sonic felt something grab his leg and opened his eyes to reveal that Animus caught him inches before he broke his neck. Vanellope grinned and walked beside her allowing her to drop Sonic. She held her hand out for him which shocked him. After everything he tried to do to her as well as kill her and here she was trying to help him up.

" I'll let you off the hook. Your confused I bet don't worry. But I'll make something clear to you, try and attack me again and little Animus here will make sure you lose all your limbs okay?" She said happily. Sonic got a shiver at her happy expression at the words she just said. Vanellope walked away and out of the room leaving everything quiet and Luna was first to regain herself as she glared at Sonic.

" Leave now and never come back to this land. As of today you are officially banned from Equestria." She said harshly. Sonic only shrugged and ran past her at lightspeed which nearly made her fall. He stopped at the door and grinned.

" I never wanted to be here anyway. It's too peaceful." He told her before finally leaving. Meanwhile, Vanellope was walking out of the castle with her puppet behind as always and like always since she's been in Canterlot has gotten some looks from the guards due to the fact 'puppets' weren't a common accessory any being should possess. She remembered Celestia mentioning about Discord who once made every Equestrian his slave and used them bringing in Chaos which was resolved by Celestia a long time ago. Still if it was still a big deal then of course Vanellope was number one on the list in a world she knew nothing of, or of anything Sonic claimed. She felt like a shell now which was probably how Animus must be if she was a living 'thing' forced to work under someone's command, if that was the case then she needed to make it as less as possible. While it was still nighttime Vanellope felt that she should of stayed in the castle since she was only wandering empty streets in Canterlot. Animus mysteriously hovered in front of her as if she was ready to protect her. Vanellope only thought of it was an instinct that was placed in her whenever it's dark since anything was bound to happen.

As the duo was still around being cautious after already dealing with one battle. Vanellope was ready for another and now full aware and Animus could probably sense where they could come from or whoever it may be. Vanellope was mostly relying more on Animus to draw out the enemy and if she were fight now it may cause a huge ruckus which may alarm everyone and mean big trouble. The puppet child was muttering to herself for the enemy to come out, but it was too quiet and made her drop her guard a bit. Out of nowhere she was met by a hammer from above and was almost about to meet the fury of none other than Dedede's hammer if it wasn't for Animus to catch it which shocked him. The puppet threw him away making a loud crash along with a crack on the concrete he was on. The king stood up using his hammer for support and glared at the child who was behind Animus now.

" Why don't you come on and fight me without your little contraption you little coward!" He provoke. Vanellope grinned although she was slightly nervous since her attacks were pretty much hopeless if she went against something like a giant pissed off duck that wields a hammer twice as big. She was going to need some kind of magic if she was going to beat this guy, she groaned at her memory loss, but sighed and accepted the challenge.

" Hmm?" She walked in front of Animus who had her hands together at her midsection as she stared at her defenseless master now having to fight herself. " You better be careful what you wish for since it may kill you." She threatened. Dedede ran towards her with his hammer up and went for a smash that she easily evaded. Dodging his attacks seemed to simple to her since he's so big, but the one thing that she felt she was going to have trouble with was attacking him. She tried going for a punch which did nothing as she expected. From that one hit that she gave made him laugh. It annoyed her, but unfortunately she couldn't do a thing about it since his head wasn't at her level.

" This is gonna be too easy." The large duck chuckled. He swung his hammer at her this time, but this swing was a bit faster that shocked Vanellope. Quickly she flashed blue making the hammer go right through her and also made Dedede stumble where his head was at her level. Vanellope wasted no time and gave him a hard uppercut making him lose balance on his feet.

" Animus get him!" Animus dashed towards the large king and wrapped herself around him tightly making it hard for him to move and again almost stumbled. " Pick on someone your own size! It's not fair for a child to go against a giant duck." Vanellope nodded giving her puppet a signal to finish him. A blue orb began to form on Animus's chest and instantly shot it against him sending him flying back to who knows where. She looked around the silent area she now was back in and was surprised no one heard anything yet. They must be heavy sleepers. Suddenly footsteps were heard beside her and to her dismay, it was another possible anomaly to her. It was yet again who she also least expected as well. She recognized the same purple and black colors of the monsters that she's fought twice so far. The form it stole was unfamiliar, but it looked close to the description Sonic gave of who attacked his world. It looked like a female and it seemed it was a cyborg telling by it's visible visor and it seemed to have a glowing eye in the middle. Along with this besides the noticeable armor was six swords that seemed to surround it. The monster didn't seem to attack, but instead it shifted forms and took the shape of a colorful floating being with the wings of a butterfly.

It only stared at Vanellope for a moment until it suddenly disappeared in a dark portal leaving her confused.

You must not understand nor ever will know who or should I say what you and your little robot truly are. You are a monster as the puny hedgehog explained, but he doesn't know your far beyond mortal reckoning. You can believe what you want but in due time things will go in Chaos' favor and Subspace will consume everything like it should of just like you wished.

" Subspace? What's that?" The Puppet Master asked herself. She shrugged it off and walked away towards a random direction quietly and forgetting Dedede who had dizziness in his eyes while laying against a tree in a park.

Rainbow Dash

" So how do we take this thing down exactly?" Rainbow Dash asked.

" Pretty much easier said then done, we just bring it down on it's knees." Soarin explained simply.

" Ha ha ha! How?" Leo nearly shouted at him as fear suddenly grew from the sight of the giant. He always got like this which takes time even for Rainbow Dash to get used too since he acts so much like her to the point she didn't need to worry so much about him like she used to. However remembering how his life was before he knew her was pretty much like an old habit to him maybe.

" Simple, we attack it's legs till it goes down and-"

" We get crushed like ants." Spitfire interrupted.

OVERDRIVE: Ouroboros

Suddenly to everyone's shock a large snake rammed through the giant's chest like glass causing it to roar and fall to the floor which gave everyone a shock at this. The giant began to disappear into purple particles which began to flow into the sky until the same snake rushed through the particles and towards the group with it's mouth wide open. The Pegasai got ready to run until suddenly an orange machine came in front of them and suddenly coming from it's cannon equipped on it's right arm was a surprisingly gigantic blue laser that collided with the snake making it get pushed back then shatter. As the laser began to dissipate, the machine began to smoke up and the Pegasai could hear panting coming from it which was identified to sound like a female. The machine began to crumble which began to turn out it was armor as it revealed to be a human woman with a blue jumpsuit and long blonde hair.

" That was close." She muttered. " He just doesn't give up." Her hopes were crushed when the snake was back, but formed itself into a well dressed man wearing a black fedora over his green hair. Rainbow Dash growled and stepped up in front of the human completely forgetting her and yelled out.

" HEY! What's the big idea trying to kill us? Are you freakin insane!" The female human looked at Rainbow Dash with a bit of interest seeing as she was different species, but it could wait after they finished this guy and knew what his deal was.

" Why is it whenever I try to kill someone quickly I end up with new disturbances? I mean come on!" The man growled as he glared at Rainbow Dash. " Oh well, I guess it does make things much more fun if your really going through with walking into getting ___ed up."

" You never give up. Your gonna pay Terumi." The female said sternly.

" Oh I highly doubt it Samus was it? Or is that the name of your 2 buck armor you just destroyed?" Terumi taunted. Something told Rainbow Dash to just leave while she could, but she was already noticed. Besides she could bet a million bits that if she walked away this woman named Samus would be dead meat. She could stay and fight, but for what reason exactly? Soarin, Spitfire, and Leo seemed like they were about to just leave right away since the giant was defeated, but they couldn't search. Then it came to her reason, the search. If she handled this guy then it's clear to search for the missing Wonderbolts or of any clue of where they've gone. Her mind was made and she could feel this guy could be bad news if he knew enough already.

" Friend of yours?" Rainbow Dash asked.

" More like an ex-boyfriend. Never stays dead." Samus groaned. " I suppose introductions can wait though. I hope you know your way in a battle." Rainbow Dash grinned and cracked her knuckles.

" I've been waiting to get the anger out of me since this guy caught me on a bad day, but I take him out then-,"

" HERE I COME!" Terumi announced as he rushed towards the girls with two butterfly knives in his hands and threw them at each of them.

Nightmare Friction

The knives suddenly became chains and was about to wrap itself around Rainbow Dash first, but her speed was able to allow her to merely hover quickly above the chains and flew towards Terumi and landed a haymaker across his face that rivaled Applejack's and sent him flying back until he used his hands to slide to a stop and rushed towards them again with his knives now normal and in his hands. Samus rushed at his time and suddenly a yellow plasma whip was produced from her hand and lashed at Terumi, but he evaded it and now was just mere feet from her until Rainbow Dash grabbed his suit from behind and threw him back away from her. From rainbow streaks, the cyan Pegasus appeared in front of him in a instant and gave him a hard lariat slamming him to the ground. After this attack, she backed away from him to look at his downed body.

" Honestly, I expected something more. What a weakling he was." She said aloud which Terumi obviously heard and pissed him off. He jumped back to his feet and his knives formed into a snake again and caught Rainbow Dash by surprise as it grabbed her in it's mouth making her scream in fear. Samus used her plasma whip again to wrap itself around the Pegasus' wrist and pulled as she tried to free her from the snake's maw. All of a sudden Rainbow Dash vanished from it's mouth making the whip dissipate and confused her and Terumi.

OVERDRIVE: RainbowRuinga

Suddenly from above at unimaginable speed, the rainbow haired Pegasus pressed a rainbow colored orb against the well dressed man's chest when he looked up making him crash to the ground leaving a hole in it. This action made Samus' eyes go wide for a moment until she sighed in relief.

" Tell me how you do it cause this guy was something else even with my armor. He also has some nerve calling it cheap. Anyway, my name is Samus Aran, I can tell I'm not in my world anymore so mind telling me just exactly where I am?"

" Follow me. Our ruler will explain." Rainbow Dash replied. However before she could go through with it she looked at Leo and the Wonderbolts who said they needed to search for any sigh of their missing comrades.

" It's okay, we won't need your assistance anymore." Spitfire assured. She placed and arm around Leo causing him to blush a bit. " And I'll watch him for you." Rainbow Dash smiled then gave Samus a gesture to follow her.

The next day: Vanellope and Animus

After a nice relaxing sleep at the park (and finally noticing Dedede unconscious against a tree) Vanellope was up with Animus following her around as always as they're third day in Equestria has started. Vanellope was already sensing something bad was happening and she would of been more than happy to solve it if she could, but she still feels uncomfortable with all the looks that the Equestrians give her whenever she walks past them and whenever she looks back they turn away like she'd kill them if they saw their looks. It was only Animus' intimidating blank stare that probably got them and unfortunately they couldn't talk to her since only Vanellope and Animus' minds were linked to hear their thoughts. Of course though, Vanellope gets bored speaking to her since she doesn't respond in words and for the fact she hardly comes up with any answer. She was all the way in the far side of Canterlot where the castle seemed like a mile away, but as Celestia told her a while ago, she was apart of the group of looking for any strange activity in any aspect possible in Canterlot and so far there was none. It was pretty boring since Vanellope now was interested in something interesting happening like facing Relius again only this time, kill him. Vanellope wasn't sure if she thought like this when she had her memory, but it didn't matter since she needed this attitude and she really needed Animus. The search was getting boring which even made Animus fold her arms that made her assume it was from boredom.

" I know how you feel Ani." So far as expected of a 'peaceful' world it actually was. Despite the little chaos happening there was just Equestrians that were doing their own business as well as a white Unicorn and yellow Pegasus who were sitting next to each other on a bench speaking to each other.

Rarity and Fluttershy

" Thank you Rarity for saving me from that guy. I really thought I was a goner." Fluttershy said softly as well as slightly blushing.

" Oh there's no need darling. As a friend, it's like my priority to protect everyone who get's threatened. Besides I assumed he was going to try something eventually, I just never thought he'd bind you." Rarity replied. Rarity was the first to fight Relius at first and she remembered she only retreated with Fluttershy before he could get up. The little girl that had the machine working with her was the reason he was gone now, hopefully out of the land but there was a lot of doubt to this. What fascinated Rarity though was that the girl defeated him flawlessly, she had to meet her to thank her and also offer her a dress for her doll. Fortunately her luck was greater than she could ever imagine since the girl from before was in front of them and actually staring for a minute like she recognized them before turning away and continued onward. Rarity instantly stood, but Fluttershy didn't find it a good idea since she felt the dark aura coming from her again.

" Seriously, I don't mean to sound bad to you, but you really need to start ignoring it whenever you see her." Rarity told her simply. With that said she walked away to the little girl which caused the floating machine to look towards her, but it didn't faze her since she was too much in delight to thank her. Finally she spoke up, " Hello young darling!" She said happily. The girl turned around and looked up to see Rarity looking at her with a very sweet expression on her face. Instantly the girl gave a smile as her reply.

" I think Celestia told me about you when I was just at the castle, Rarity right?" The unicorn nodded and was quite surprised that she knew Celestia.

" My name is Vanellope and my pupp-, my partner is Animus." Luckily, Rarity didn't bother caring about her mistake of calling her a puppet. Rarity looked at it and more importantly what it wore. She seemed to wonder if she should even have it change clothing since it seemed clean and already well designed by whoever was her designer. She looked back Vanellope who was staring at Fluttershy that was trying to hide behind her face with her long pink hair. Rarity followed her gaze and saw what her shy friend was doing which made her groan.

" That's Fluttershy, just as it's said in her name, you should know a little bit about her." Rarity said with a facepalm. Vanellope only shrugged and looked at Rarity again.

" Did you need something?" She asked.

" Actually, I remember you taking out that masked ruffian yesterday and I have to say that I never saw such power coming from a child. Perhaps you were destined to be living here in Equestria?" Rarity asked. Vanellope scoffed when she referred to Relius first.

" That guy is still alive and I bet he'll be attacking people in any moment. Not to mention I had what people would call a rough night. Anyway, it's nice meeting you and all, but I have to go since I might have more huge opponents to take down." Vanellope quickly rushed past Rarity to her confusion as Animus stayed at the Puppet Master's side.

" Uh, okay. I guess we should leave as well." Rarity said quietly. She looked at Fluttershy who seemed to sigh in relief at Vanellope finally leaving. When she saw Rarity there was a deathly glare towards her, but Fluttershy happened to stare back for a moment until Rarity just sighed in irritation. " She's hopeless." She muttered.

Twilight

Usually Twilight would be doing her daily studying in magic even though it was no longer needed since she wasn't Celestia's student any longer. However due to possible conflict Twilight now needed to use what she's learned in case she's ever gotten into a combat situation. She was going to ask Shining Armor for a little practice, but since he had a job to do and didn't have that much of a free time off to do so, she had to ask Spike instead which was sufficient enough. He could take her hits (besides throwing books) and plus Dragons had much more strength than Equestrians. Spike happened to accept the challenge since he had nothing else better to do. Over the years he's now a bit taller than Twilight although he was a few years younger. Twilight was also aware that he was able to make a lot of things with his flames now due to his own self training. Pretty much he was ready for almost any encounter despite a variety of openings Twilight notices, but could he? They took their training to an open area just outside the castle and it was pretty much guaranteed that no damage could be sustained to the castle itself since Twilight controls her range of magic along with Spike's flames only to stay hot for a while.

" So, you want to test your powers on me and by that you meant we fight?" Spike asked, making sure he heard it right.

" Of course. I don't want you just be my dummy." Twilight assured.

" The way she said it inside was not how she just said it now." Spike thought to himself as he gave out an irritated look.

Soundtrack-Magical Dance

" Well if that's what you want then I'll give it my best Twi." Suddenly Spike blew a green fireball towards her as well as running behind it. Twilight stepped out of the way of the fireball as well as ducking underneath Spike's jab then placing her hand on his chest.

" You should know good and well not to ever run up close to someone who knows magic Spike." Twilight pushed him back and placed her hands on her hips along with a making a grin. " You could get killed." With a swift motion of her hands, the purple unicorn surrounded her hands with blades that both resembled the water element. She swung one of her blades at Spike which he was able duck underneath then grabbed Twilight's wrist and flipped her over his shoulder hearing an 'oof' as she landed. Twilight jumped back to her feet and rushed at the dragon this time and swung her blades as barrage which made him back away from each one then counterattack with a fireball that was sliced in half. This continued on a for a while until Twilight crouched and did a leg sweep on the teen dragon causing him to fall on his back. Next thing he saw was a blade pointed at his neck with Twilight still grinning. Spike began to stand up slowly until he got on one knee. After getting this far up he went for an uppercut which unexpectedly connected with Twilight's jaw and sent her flying a few yards along with making her blades dissipate. Spike held his hand up to catch her body then let her down and now made a wide smile at his accomplishment.

" I assume your going to get me back at this right?"

" Really hard." Twilight replied. She jumped back away from Spike with her hands aimed at him and an orb forming in front of her. Before she could continue a blue orb landed in between the two causing them to turn to the source of who did it and who else but the machine Twilight just met with, Animus. Along with that sudden assault the puppet rushed towards Spike revealing Vanellope who was hiding behind her.

" I search half a mile of your city and here I find you training with a boy, you sly son of a gun." Vanellope said with a wink towards Twilight causing her to blush. Animus was inches from Spike who was ready to counter her until multiple splashes were made around them and this made Vanellope and Twilight gasp while Spike and Animus stopped what they were doing. All around them were purple red eyed monsters which took forms of unfamiliar beings to Vanellope, but one of them took shapes of different beings that weren't Equestrians. The Puppet Master spotted one to look like Sonic and other creatures that looked similar in body types and all others were Equestrians. Without any words they all got ready to fight. Spike ran towards two of them and gave them each a clothesline making them fall hard on their back and disappear. Animus shot lasers from her eyes and towards the enemies Vanellope pointed towards and a single hit was all it took to take them down. Twilight was taking down each of the enemies that grouped up with powerful spells along with levitating any of them that come towards her and threw them away from her. So far things were going good for them and they eliminated the monsters within minutes. Spike and Twilight were panting due to using so much to take out that much enemies and worse, they didn't get help from the guards. Since Vanellope had a 'guard' of her own she didn't need to move around that much.

" Well that was nothing." She said as she ordered Animus to come back to her. Suddenly they all heard a loud rumble along with a large blue energized orb from a distance that formed down past Canterlot.

" What was that?" Twilight asked.

Outside of Canterlot: Trixie Lulamoon and Unknown Being

In the middle of a once to be town that was now like a war zone, stood a blue silver haired unicorn wearing a black robe over a black leotard as well as seeing another creature in front of her that looked like a blue bipedal jackal with black fur that made a cross around his muzzle, hands, and legs and he seemed tired.

" Come on! Is this really all you have to show Trixie? You say were going to stop me were you, Lucario was it? Hmph, here I assumed you'd have the kind of will to keep going." Trixie taunted. The jackal named Lucario happened to appear out of nowhere and near Trixie who seemed to be pretty cocky that she was going to accomplish the plan given by someone named Tabuu. Hearing that was what made him engage in battle and so far he's never been through so much trouble in a fight like this. Her plan was revealed and now he was at the mercy of her. No, he couldn't be. It doesn't matter what kind of power she possessed, Lucario knew he had to at least restrain her or do it the hard way and fight her till she can no longer do so.

" My...condition isn't doing so good. I get hit by something she just gave me and I'm done for. Darn it, Tabuu cannot win! I won't allow everything to happen a second time!" He thought. His thoughts made him stand up once more which made Trixie smile.

" Ready for round 5 are we? En garde." Trixie warned.

" Why are you...trying to awaken that monster!" Lucario growled. Trixie chuckled and only looked down as she suddenly began to grow a bit of sadness.

" My life has no meaning so why not spread my suffering since many people have caused it! You shouldn't even be here so anyone that appears in my sight and tries to defy my mission will die, end of story." Trixie replied.

OVERDRIVE: Alicorn Boundaries Broken

Lucario suddenly sensed something completely beyond what he's felt in his world. An aura that shouldn't even exist, a purple aura surrounded her along with her eyes suddenly turning red.

" No use. I need to use it." He thought.

OVERDRIVE: Mega Evolution

From a burst of blue light, the tip of his ears turned red along with the black fur on his hands and legs and his eyes also turned into a crimson color that was slightly darker than Trixie's.
