Chapter One : Equestria

No matter where I go, no matter what I seem to do, Death always finds the ones that are closest to me. It just seems impossible to protect the ones I love, especially in this strange, alien world. I was on top of the world at one point, so to speak. But that was before the Getter Ray Bomb sent me to a place where I soon learned what it felt like to be beat down so badly, to have all that confidence and power ripped away from you by beings who were infinitely superior. If I could go back in time, if I could just have known what was coming, maybe, just maybe. . . Maybe I could have saved him.

-PART ONE-**

THE GETTER RAY BOMB

The sun rose high into the sky, bathing a mountainous valley painted with tall oak trees in a warm shade of orange as it's luminous blanket of light covered all. Located at the center of this sprawling natural paradise, there stood a man made structure, very much out of place in the lush fauna. Even more so out of place, were the bulky, heavily armored automatons that patrolled around the outside, keeping a vigilant watch over all within the mountain ring. Deep inside this research facility, was a dimly lit hangar, it's only source of illumination being the many monitors and flickering lights of the technology that vastly over populated the sombresome landing and maintenance bay. Far on the other end of the facility's room, erected a circular structure with multiple rings of platforms, all raising higher and higher, nearly reaching the roof.

A large silhouette stood tall within these circular maintenance platforms, the dim light of the tech around it only shedding a tiny amount of light on it. It's bright red armor was mixed with the flickering lights, giving only some visibility of the titanic robot's full form. Many a worker and scientist alike, all various species of animals, rushed around almost frantically, preforming maintenance checks and fortifying it's already seemingly tough armor.

"Alright, everything seems to be functioning at it's maximum capacity."

The gruff voice of an old, bearded Bear spoke with a monotonous tone. His comb over of grey toned hair fell neatly upon his rather large head, and though not an image of fitness, he moved about with surprising speed, leaning over numerous fellow scientist and surveying monitor after monitor. Inside of the towering mecha, a young canine figure sat comfortably in what seemed to be a cockpit of some sort. Sitting in the pilot's seat, surrounded by various levers and buttons, was a rather young fox, his unkempt black mane of hair falling messily past his shoulders. Pushing up the sky-blue V-shaped shades onto the bridge of his grey snout, he replied to the raspy voice speaking to him.

"Alright Professor Leon, let's start this party already!"

His voice was shrill and firm, with an air of arrogance about it as he grabbed a hold of the main control levers tightly.

"Don't be so hasty, Gou!"

The voice of the aged bear chided through the comm, causing the boy to jolt and cringe.

"This Getter Robo is still only a prototype! With only two pilot seats, it's maximum energy output will be somewhat deducted!"

This statement caused the young fox to sneer, his finely trimmed chin hair contorting as the irritated expression painted his maw.

"It's not the amount of Getter Energy, nor the amount of Pilots! It's the amount of spirit you put into it, and your faith in the Getter Rays!" He stated matter of factly.

"Isn't that right, Jin?" He asked a seemingly unseen pilot over his comm.

"You know it, Gou!" Inside the second cockpit within the Getter Robo, sat a much younger fox, almost identical in appearance to his brother. His hair only fell to his shoulders, and he lacked any facial hair unlike his elder brother. His voice hinted a tone of youth, though almost the same as his sibling's.

The pair's blue Gi's slowly expanded and contracted with their excited breaths, eager to take their newly manufactured Proto Getter out for a spin. Now, one who had seen a Getter Robo before would say this one and the original model bare no differences, but like the old bear, Professor Leon stated, it's power output was much less than it's predecessor, and unlike the standard of Three Seated Getters, this one had only two. Speaking of the Elder, he chuckled silently to himself at the brother's combined confidence.

"You boys have never disappointing me, and I have the utmost faith that this mission will result in success, as have all your others." He spoke kindly, touching both the brother's hearts as they smiled at Leon through their monitors.

"Come back safely, Tetsu Twins! We'll celebrate over some Sake!" He regarded happily with a hearty laugh. Both the Tetsu Brothers nodded simultaneously, before the Getter Energy loading was complete, and their titanic fighting machine sparked to life in a brilliant green flash. A large bay door opened overhead, bathing the Getter Robo in bright sunlight. It nearly sparkled in the beauteous luminescence as it began to move, shaking it's self from the still state that had previously enveloped it. As if on que, only personifying the connection between the twins, they shouted a command to the Getter in perfect Unison.

"GETTER WING!" In response, an elegant red cape quickly dropped from it's back. The Twins took control the Getter, making it crouch down in preparation for flight. In launched almost violently off the cold steel platform it stood on, shaking the entire lab right down to it's foundation. Many a scientist stumbled about from the small quake, some landing flat on their rumps or face first into the cold steel floor. The mecha rocketed through the bay doors, gliding gracefully into the sky above.

Professor Leon's laboratory shrank in the distance behind them, until it was but a dot in the lush green landscape that the Tetsu Brothers were leaving behind. Jin focused the monitor's view back upon the Lab that they had seemingly abandoned. He felt a bit strange, and for what reason, he didn't know. All their other missions had gone flawlessly, almost perfectly because of their skill and prowess when piloting their Getter. But now, not only were they piloting their newly fashioned Double Seated Getter, they were to face a yet unseen foe. Their mission, was to halt a sudden resistance movement. This, however, was no normal faction. Lead by the previous scientist to excel in Getter Ray research, Dr. Saotome, nearly an endless army of Getter Robo G's were at his disposal. They were also to retrieve a piece of cargo in the favor of an allied Getter Ray Research facility. What the package was, Dr. Leon refused to tell. This only unnerved Jin even more as his thoughts reveled in uncertainty.

"Hey Jin, do you think Old Man Leon will actually hold up on that promise of Sake, or do you think the senile old bastard will drink it all before we get back, like he always does?" He laughed loudly. This raked his younger brother's mind from his dark thoughts, making him laugh as well.

"Well, we'd better hurry and get back before he can! I may be under age, but forget that! I'm a damn soldier! I think we both deserve a little down time!" He chuckled in reply.

"Damn right, kiddo! Let's pick up the pace, eh Getter?" Gou and Jin had always felt a deep connection with not only the Getter Rays, but the robots they powered. They spoke to them as if they possessed a mind of their own, and treated and cared for them like living beings. Though one would think this an odd habit, it seemed the Getter Rays favored this, and each of their missions had been completed without a hitch. The boys never took full credit for said missions, however. After each mission, one could always hear the boys giving numerous thanks to the Getter Rays for pulling them through in seemingly hopeless times.

"We're almost there, Gou! You ready for this?" Jin called out to his brother. Gou grinned confidently, gripping the controls for the Getter tightly as their machine reached it's destination.

"Ready as I'll ever be!" He replied. The boys ascended over a tall mountain range, getting the full view of the location of their objective. Not unlike their home base, here too was a lush green valley, surrounded with jungles and other various forms of vegetation. In it's center, however, was something that caused both of the Tetsu Twins to cringe in annoyance.

Shining in the bright light of the sun, were countless Getter Robo G's, the unpiloted army of automatons all turning their attention to the approaching Proto Getter.

"W-What the? There's nothing here!" Gou stated, seeing that the valley held nothing but the mechanized forces.

"It was a setup!" Jin shouted. The Getter Robo G's all crouched before rocketing into the sky, blotting it out in a cloud of steel red.

"Forget this! We need to get back to the lab and tell the Professor that this was a trap!" Gou shouted, thrusting the levers to his side as the Getter Robo turned in response. Much to the boys's dismay, an equal sized force of Getter G's had amassed, all careening at them as well. Gou cursed loudly, gripping the controls tightly.

"Looks like there's no way out of this, little bro. We've got no choice but to take these guys on!" Jin gulped nervously. Though he was as courageous as the next guy, taking on this absurd amount of enemies, and not to mention a superior model of Getters, was a bit much for him. Without Jin's consent, Gou thrust the control levers forward, throwing their machine into the crimson swarm approaching them. On their own Getter's arms, the boys had very sharp blades at their disposal. The Getter Robo threw it's arms out in front of it, and began plowing through countless foes, cutting deeply into their armor or slicing them in half completely.

The few felled Getter G's all erupted with bright explosions, altogether creating a cloud of smoke and fire that engulfed the entire swarm. The boys and their automaton came out unharmed on the other side, completely unharmed. Gou let out a triumphant cackle at the expense of his former enemies.

"Reduced Power Output my ass! Looks like I was right- no matter the machine, The Getter Rays will always have our backs!" He turned the Getter around to survey the the mushroom cloud he had brought about. A quick yelp from Jin pulled his attention away.

"It's not over yet, bro! More are on the way!" The young fox shouted, throwing the images of even more Getter G's onto his brother's monitor. Gou sneered arrogantly, and made a quick decision.

"Jin, I'll let you handle these guys! Let's change it up!" This caused Jin to give his assumed insane elder brother a look of pure denial.

"Are you SERIOUS?"

"No time for talk, Jin! Let's do this! OPEN GETTER!" Again, Gou acted with surprising speed, and their Getter split into three separate ships. The Getter Robo by it's self was quick, but these ships could easily out fly anything that opposed them. Jin sighed, recovering from the quick scare.

"Alright Gou! Together now!" The younger called out. The twins grabbed a hold of the controls, and simultaneously shouted a command to their machine.

"CHANGE GETTER TWO!"

The three ships responded, flying in perfect unison before combining together in a certain order. From the combination, arms and legs jutted out, and a completely new Getter was born. Baring little resemblance to the first form, this one was protected by hefty white torso plating, it's yellow eyes staring ominously from it's cone shaped head as it appeared. Though it's crimson legs weren't as heavily armored, they boasted back breaking speed, and was equipped with not only a powerful clamp arm, but a drill on it's right as well. The multicolored machine became a blur as Jin took control. It sped off towards the cloud, thrusting it's drill arm forward.

Countless Getter G's were drilled all the way through, so much that some were even impaled one after the other until the drill broke their battered metallic frames into pieces. Jin only built up speed, dashing around violently and leveling Getter after Getter. The boys both smiled triumphantly as an even bigger explosion encased the army of Getter G's.

"Damn, that was one for the books, kid!" Gou praised through the intercom. Jin giggled bashfully, scratching the back of his head in modesty.

"Wuh-oh! We're not done yet kid! Move to the side!" The sudden shout of his brother caused Jin to automatically thrust the controls sideways in response, avoiding nearly an entire armada of Getter Ligers careening by with their own drill arms held forward. Gou sighed in relief, and grabbed the controls as the Getter Ligers moved around for another attack.

"Alright Jin, I'll handle this! Let's change up!" He commanded. His younger brother nodded, inputting the commands. "OPEN GETTER!" The shout of Gou caused the systems to react just quickly enough to split the ships back into three once more, narrowly avoiding yet another drill barrage. The three ships careened down to the ground and the two boys shouted one last command.

"CHANGE GETTER THREE!!" Once again, the Get Machines all flawlessly slammed into one another, and Getter Three soon stood on it's tank like treads far below. Though not as fast or agile as the previous two, this one was equipped to battle with pure physical prowess. It's bright blue optics looked to the sky through it's golden box-shaped head, placed in between two shoulder missiles. It's thick, lengthy arms were topped with two heavily armored fists, which Gou thrust to the sky.

"Alright Jin! Let's honor Musashi and take one out of his old playbook, Eh?" He inquired.

Jin reveled on the thought. Musashi Tomoe, a true warrior, and one of the main three pilots of the original Getter Robo. He fought with the hands of the same Getter Three, and went out in a blaze of glory whilst fighting the long gone Reptilian Empire. Jin knew exactly what move his brother had in mind, and a feeling of melancholic fury gripped his heart. He tightly grabbed the controls along side of his brother, and the two shouted the very same words that the heroic Musashi had once bellowed.

"GREAT AVALANCHE!"

The lengthy arms of Getter Three rocketed from it's sides, snaking upwards at the cloud of the approaching Liger Getters. Moving with such speed, it was powerful enough to generate an artificial tornado with amazing strength. The Getter Ligers all slammed into one another, along with the spiraling arms of Getter Three. They all either shattered into bits or were torn apart by the unstoppable force, and the defeated machines, in various chunks, all fell to the ground with brilliant detonations. The sky was soon clear, with no other Getter G's in sight.

"YAHOOOOO! WE DID IT, JIN!" Gou cried triumphantly, making the Getter jolt a fisted elbow down to personify their success.

"Hah, wait 'till we tell the Professor how amazing this thing is! Looks like the Getter Rays had our backs through this one, eh Jin?" Gou looked to his brother when he heard no response.

"J-Jin? You alright in there little buddy?" He flicked the communication screen on, and saw that his brother had taken on a horrified expression, pointing towards the front of their Getter.

"W-what the hell is THAT thing!?" Jin finally shouted in fear.

Sprinting towards them on all fours, was a monster straight out of a nightmare. It seemed to be made of mixed species of animals, all contorting together to create a truly grotesque creature. It was vastly bigger than the Getter Robo, unnerving the boys as they stood frozen in fear. It let out a wild howl as it pounced out of it's sprint, the boys only reacting with a fraction of a second left before impact. Getter Three raised it's arms, the two opponents sliding back many feet before skidding to a halt. The creature's maw snapped hungrily at them, it's multiple misplaced eyes rolling around in it's grossly misshapen head.

"A-An Invader!? What they hell is it doing here!? I thought they were all destroyed in the Moon Wars!" Jin cried out, putting his own force into the defense as they tried desperately to keep it from chomping the machine's head clean off. Gou spat to his side, cursing as he did so.

"Looks like some of these creeps slithered away! We'll just have to kill this one too!" He stated.

"OPEN GETTER!"

The machines split apart as the Invader flopped into the ground. It stood quickly, letting out a rage filled roar as a grip of tentacles fired from it's back. It effortlessly grabbed the three ships, slamming them into the ground in a heap as earth and fauna were tossed in all directions. The boys cried out in pain as they were slammed deep into their seats, flopping around for a few seconds before coming to a stop.

"C'mon Jin! We've gotta get our Get Machines going, or that thing's gonna rip us apart!" Both of the boys frantically began shaking all the controls about, pushing all the buttons they could as the Invader slowly plodded towards them.

"No No NO!" Gou shouted frustratedly.

"I ain't gonna die like this! No way!" Though he refused to face death, his tone hinted at how scared the fox truly was, as his younger mirrored his attitude.

The Invader now loomed over the two, lifting it's disgustingly mutated paw high into the air, readying to slam it down upon the two, like a foot crushing a tiny bug. The two boys squeezed their eyes shut, cringing in fear as they waited for death to come. They waited, for nearly a minute, and nothing happened. They felt no pain, there wasn't even any noise. They opened their eyes in unison, and were surprised to see the Invader had stopped, just inches from their Get Machines. It's gaze was focused on the sky, for some strange reason, it's face painted with an expression of pure terror. It turned tail and ran, whimpering as it fled from the scene.

Both Gou and Jin now wore extremely confused expressions, each looking at each other through their screens. They both had no idea what had happened, but were none the less elated to have evaded an untimely demise. Gou turned his attention to what had made the Invader turn tail and run away so frantically, and was nearly tempted to do the same when he saw the Invader's fear.

"Okay, just what the Hell is THAT!?" Jin shouted in mixed confusion and fright.

Towering over the mountains, and dangerously near the boys, an even larger creature had appeared. Rather than baring the black goopish standard of the Invader, this one bore a rustic color, and seemed to be made up of multiple machines. Gou gulped out loud. He knew exactly what this was. Professor Leon had kept this secret from Jin, knowing that if he revealed to them the true nature of their mission, Jin would have immediately refused. Gou could barely speak, as he uttered the name of their sinister objective.

"G-Getter Dragon. . ."

This metallic behemoth uttered a guttural growl, shaking up the earth and turning it's attention to the sky, as the invader did. Though the sudden appearance of the Getter Dragon would have marked the certain end for the young twins, fate would not have their lives yet.

"Gou! Look!" Jin called out, throwing the display of a distant Arial object onto his brother's visuals.

"You've gotta' be frikkin' kiddin' me!" The older sibling sighed. The image of a heavily armed bomb was generated onto the screen of the brothers. It fell with amazing speed, and much to the twin's despair, it's target was the Getter Dragon. They knew the Getter Dragon would be destroyed, but they were well within the blast radius.

This was it. After all they'd been through together in their short lives, the Tetsu Twins would finally meet their match. Gou, though being the hard headed one, decided to do one last thing before the bomb reached them.

"Hey, Jin. Let's get out of these Get Machines, yeah?" Jin turned his attention back to the monitor, displaying the optimistically sorrowful face of his elder sibling. Just from that look, Jin knew that Gou had accepted that there was no possible way for them to get out of this predicament. Their Get Machines were disabled, broken beyond repair, and no hope of escape would find them. Jin sadly nodded, a smile hiding his despair as he pulled the emergency release on the Get Machine's cockpit.

Both of the twins met eachother outside, standing atop Gou's Getter Eagle. They both embraced affectionately, not letting go of one another as the missile approached, giving them only a couple of minutes left with each other. The both gripped each other's shoulder's tightly as tears welled in their eyes. They both smiled at one another, ignoring the fact that they both would soon be long gone.

"Jin. My brother. My fuzzy lil' bro. I wouldn't rather have piloted the Getter with any other guy. Even if it was Ryoma, Hayato or Musashi. I don't care. You and I bro, we changed the world together." Jin nodded, wiping the tears from his eyes.

"This isn't the end, Gou. We'll always be together, standing against whatever this crazy universe has to dish out. You and me, we're gonna' move on and change the universe. Forget this world, we don't need it." The little fox gingerly replied, pulling his older brother back into one final hug. As it turned out, this bomb was a Getter Ray powered missile. The florescent green eruption just above the surface clued the boys onto this.

"Crazy ol' bastards just don't know when to quit with their Getter Ray weapons, do they?" The older sibling sighed as he and his brother turned their attention to the incoming wall of Getter Rays. They both nonchalantly placed their hands in their pockets, as the approaching force began throwing their hair and tails around vigorously. They watched as the explosion spread from nearly a good several miles away, then three, then one. In the last few feet, the brothers refused to close their eyes at the bright light.

"So, Getter Rays. Is this what you had planned for us all along?" Yet again, the twins spoke in unison as the Getter Rays absorbed them, and everything far beyond. All sound left them, and everything went black.

**-PART TWO-

EQUESTRIA**

Jin's mind sluggishly flickered into activity. Though he could not see, hear,or even feel, he was conscious. His immediate thoughts were that this was the afterlife, and he was to drift in darkness forever. Quite fitting, seeing as how he and his brother weren't exactly Saints over the course of their lives. However, Jin's body soon sparked to life, and he could feel it. The insides of his eyelids glowed with a bright green light, intense enough to wake him from his vegetated state. Like an infant learning to move for the first time, Jin's eyelids slowly responded to his neural command, and took their time twitching and jittering before slowly lifting open. Jin was greeted with the image of a Neon Green void, nothing in sight but the nearly blinding light.

"W-What the. . .? What is this place?" Jin found it difficult to even talk, his voice raspy and cracking with every word. His body hovered in place in this strange plane of existence, and he soon was able to slowly but surely begin moving his own body again. His vision darted this way and that, before moving his entire head around to survey the void.

"G-Getter Robo!" He suddenly yelped. Looming behind him, also seeming to be caught in the ominous void, was the Proto Getter, staring ahead lifelessly as it's body haphazardly hovered in place. As expected of a Tetsu Twin, Jin greeted it like an old friend.

"I don't suppose you have any idea where we are, eh Getter?" He inquired, a palpable sense of friendship between the two apparent as the lifeless machine feigned to respond.

"And where's Gou?" The young on whispered to himself. The audible noise of stirring machine caught his attention, as to Jin's surprise, the Getter's arm lifted. It slowly hefted a finger, pointing towards the edge of the void, seeming to have been given life by some unknown force.

"G-Getter! You're!-" The surprised little fox exclaimed. The Getter's attention none the less stayed riveted to what it had been pointing to, and Jin soon turned to see it.

"What's that light?" Jin squinted as he pondered, focusing on what seemed to be a magenta-hued eight pointed star, sparkling brightly at the other end of the void. Jin turned his attention back to the Getter, and the titanic machine returned it's gaze.

"Well Getter, you've let me make all the decisions up until this point. What do you think we should do now?" Jin spoke. In response, the mouth piece of the Getter Robo opened up, revealing the pilot's seat as it silently gestured for Jin to climb inside. Jin gave a tentative smile before using his own force to float him over to the Getter. Taking a seat inside, the cockpit seemed almost foreign to him, as if it had been decades since the little fox had piloted this machine. He brushed his long black hair aside from his muzzle, and forcefully gripped the control levers.

"Alright Getter, I don't know about you, but it feels like forever since I've used you. Don't slow down, alright? We've gotta find Gou, but first things first! Let's get out of here!" The youthful canine thrust the controls forward, shouting a command to the Getter.

"GETTER WING!" Responding instantly, the Getter's vibrant red cape shot out of it's back, and began careening forward, only building speed as it approached the light.

"Woah! Getter! You're probably already feeling it, but I just noticed! Our Getter Energy readings are off the charts! Is as if this entire void is made of. . ." A light bulb flickered on in Jin's mind, as he now knew exactly what this void was.

"Getter, open up your core! Quick!" He barked frantically. The Getter's chest plate slid apart in various places, revealing the glowing Getter Reactor.

"Let's siphon all these Getter Rays up! I don't know where this place will take us, but more Getter Energy is always a good move!" As if on que, the Reactor acted as a vacuum, sucking up all the energy around them, leaving blotches of a depressing grey shade where the vibrant green had once painted the plane. As a repercussion of all this energy, the Getter's speed began increasing, until poor Jin could only hang on for dear life as he was forced down into his seat.

"G-Getter! Slow down! YOU'RE GOING TOO FAST!" As if the crushing G-Force wasn't adding enough to the problem, the magenta star began to become so bright, it nearly blinded Jin as he squeezed his eyes shut. He wanted to scream in pain, but the speed of his machine was so intense that it was forcing the air out of his lungs. Before the fox was crushed to death, the light absorbed the boy and his Getter, taking them far away, and leaving the now dark grey void far behind them. Once more, the unconscious fox came to, his blurry vision adjusting to the new scenery surrounding him. He gripped his head in pain, the pounding almost too much for him to bare.

"Auugh. . .my frikkin' dome. . ." He wheezed. "Just where the Hell am I now?" He whispered to himself, surveying the new terrain. A tall forest of trees towered high above him, all bathed in the warm light of the sun far over head. He seemed to have lost the Getter Robo, much to his dismay. He groggily stood, nearly falling back down a few times before he finally regained his balance. If he and the Getter had been sent to the same place, he was hoping maybe it'd be close by.

Jin took a step, and noticed a mechanical wurr along with a heavy metallic thump as his foot connected with the ground. He stopped dead in his tracks, slowly looking down to see what had made his leg sound off in such a way. Jin let out a surprised yelp as he took a step back, noticing that Getter One's leg had replaced his own. Fearfully looking himself over, he found that not only had his leg been fused, but his entire body was encased in a compacted Getter Robo.

"Well. . .This is new." The young one stated, studying himself more thoroughly.

"Looks like you get to see the world through my eyes, ol' buddy." He sighed. "But where are we now? I don't recognize this place at all. . .Are we back on Earth?" Answering his blatant question, a blinding light shined just out of his peripherals, even brighter than the sun high in the sky.Quickly turning his attention to where it came from, he found that again, it was that strange light in the shape of an eight pointed magenta star. It had been the governing force that had guided him to this place, so Jin surmised finding it's source would be the only sensible thing to do. The boy crouched himself down, preparing to take to the sky.

"GETTER WING!" He called, causing his Getter Armor to once again sprout it's crimson flight module. The machine and it's pilot gracefully lifted just above the tree tops, and advanced towards the origin of the light's location. Over the tree tops, illuminated by the bright light of day, towered a massive castle, it's stone walls and historic design making it appear primitive to the approaching Getter Robo. Jin was hoping that maybe, just maybe, the light would answer all the questions he had swimming in his mind, and hopefully he would be re-united with his brother .However, deep within the aged structure, something entirely worse awaited him.

Two figures stood positioned on opposite sides of a very large throne room, elegantly decorated with tall statues depicting equine-like figures that watched over the dim torch lit chamber. Opposite to the large double doors that headed the chamber, a set of banners hung over two thrones, one gold, one blue, matching with the hue of the elegantly decorated seats. Standing under these with a posture of combined power and fury, garbed in a black astronomically decorated dress, was an Alicorn. Unlike her subjects, her star spangled, florescent blue hair flowed by it's self, not influenced by the lack of wind in the slightest. She bore a metallic blue coat, almost appearing black in the dark throne room. Her hefty breasts bulged out in front of her as she puffed her chest out, placing her hands upon her wide hips. Her cyan colored eyes glared with anger towards the other side of the room, where the other figure stood.

The difference between these two were like night and day. Unlike the other Alicorn's steel blue coat, this one's was pastel white, hinting at a light shade of whitish pink as it glowed in the faint torch light. As if the rainbow had been weaved into a beautiful mane of hair, this one's also flowed with the same independence. This one was at least a foot or two taller, boasting wider curves than her opposite. Her vigilant pink irises squinted with a half eyed frown across the room, her posture being calm and collected, though more than prepared for any sort of confrontation. Her own white garbs hugged her form perfectly, falling around her legs as she stood still, like a warrior before a perilous battle.

"Did you really expect me to sit idly by while they all basked in your "precious light"?" She growled, waving a chiding hand about in the air in front of her. Her opposer stood still and silent, her gaze mirroring that of her own.

"There can only be ONE Princess in Equestria!" She raised her voice, striding over to the middle of the thrones.

"And that Princess- WILL BE ME!!", Her bellow could be heard far and wide, and unbeknownst to the two of them, an eavesdropping interloper. From behind this wrathful equine, a dark shadow crept up the wall, splintering it with cracks that began jutting their way to a large stained glass mural above. It violently shattered, the shards dispatching in multiple directions. The radiant beams of sunlight pierced through, though only for mere seconds.

The vile antagonist's horn shimmered with energy as she slowly lifted into the air, raising her arms high above her head. In response, the moon rose high into the sky, completely eclipsing the sun and blotting out all light from the land. Instantly after, beams of what seemed to be pure darkness poured back from the sun, swirling around the wicked foe before encasing her in a tenebrous ball. It soon shined with a red aura of pure malice, then quickly changing to a shade of deep blue, mirroring her once stunning mane.

Bursting out from this ball after a moment, the black silhouette of a much bigger, and much more redoubtable Alicorn appeared, the blue sphere blanketing out quickly to form her now seemingly endless mane, and even longer tail. The delineation of the creature faded into color, it's now demonically decorated helm and matching armor appearing over it's pitch black coat. It opened it's mouth and cackled criminally, it's teeth growing razor sharp as it spat it's chortles at her now unnerved antagonizer. She careened to the ground, her now powerfully equipped hooves crushing the floor beneath her.

Her mane swirled about like a sentient tornado, accentuating her evil appearance. She placed her hands on her hips with a glare that would make a grown giant run in fear. Still, her combatant stood her ground, her calm composure ringing true as she eyed her with the same expression. Seeing that she was not the least bit swayed, the dark Alicorn fired a beam of unrivaled magical energy, destructively wrenching it across the room. Countless statues and walls were destroyed, and falling rubble stirred up dust as it crashed deafeningly into the ground. The ominous equine strided through the settling dust, approaching her unswayed opponent.

The radiant Alicorn baring the rainbowed mane took flight, spreading her enormous wings as she lifted to the air within the large room. The other fired yet another beam, giving her foe only mere seconds to move before it impacted. Her beam instead connected with the ceiling, busting a large hole all the way through the heavy stone. The seemingly just Alicorn landed but a few feet away, not able to hold her concern in any longer as she spoke.

"Luna! I will not fight you! You must lower the moon! It is your DUTY!" Her tone expressed true despair, not for the thought of defeat, but of something much more intimate between the two.

Previously stated, the two were unaware of a nearby figure who watched in silence, his heavy armor masked in the shadows of the now snuffed torches. He had waited, studying the two with the intention of seeing which of them was in the right. He had now made his decision, and his hunch was correct. The white Alicorn was obviously trying to protect her home, not even attempting to strike her opponent out of peace. Even supporting his assumption more so, was her previous sentence. He stood, and prepared to leap into action.

"Luna"? I am Nightmare Moon!" The evil Alicorn stated, crossing her arms.

"I have but ONE Royal Duty now! TO DESTROY YOU!" Her horn charged up and shimmered with the pretense to yet another magical attack, yet this time, her beam would connect with something other than stone. From the pastel Alicorn's back, a hand tightly gripped her shoulder, throwing her to the side. A voice rang out in fury as a new figure took her place.

"Then in THAT case, I hope you don't mind if I return the favor!"

"GETTER BEAM!"

Though the entire room was already ablaze with light from the Alicorn's neon blue magic, a pink florescant beam of foriegn energy brightened it even more so, and clashed violantly with hers. The energy attacks cancled each other out, sending them tendriling in various directions before sputtering out. Nightmare Moon's eyes widened in mixed confusion and wonder at what now stood before her, as did the nearby white Alicorn's. Armed to the teeth in red and white armor, brandishing a shining Tomahawk in it's right hand, was none other than the Getter Robo.

Chapter Two : Bested Once More

"And WHAT sort of Childish Prank is THIS!?" Nightmare Moon bellowed, her shout shaking the room to it's very foundation as she took on a frustrated and confused posture.

"What be you, Pony or Machine?! I demand you state your identity post-haste!" She growled, as her horn began to brighten with the threat of an even more powerful magical assault. In response, the machine took a fighting stance, completely disregarding her question.

"Who I am doesn't concern you, lady! But what I DO know, is that this world doesn't belong to you! I'm only going to warn you once! Clear out, or I'm gonna' make things get UGLY!" The voice of the newcomer echoed through the halls of the old castle, even more so causing it to rumble with his booming proclamation. Nightmare Moon raised an interested brow, before breaking out in condescending laughter. Her snout ruffled in disbelief, not able to bare the sudden ignorance of this unknown foe. None could stand before her, a Goddess in her own realm, let alone the massive power that she was endowed with.

"Celestia! Who is this pathetic little follower of yours? Be he another one of your failed experiments? His satire is nearly too much for me to bare! As if he actually believes he can even stand up to the mighty Nightmare Moon in her own domain!" Her chiding words caused the Getter Robo to raise an infuriated fist, his discomfort being almost unfathomable. Ergo, it's attention was pulled when he noticed a smooth white hand gingerly grip his shoulder plating. Princess Celestia had regained her footing, and took her place aside the Getter Robo. In comparison to these two, the Getter Robo was but a foot or two shorter, still very tall at nearly seven and a half feet. She grimaced, viewing her seemingly weak minded foes.

"This one does not follow me, nor does he hold a place in my memory. However, I do know this- Anyone willing to stand against you is not only a courageous soul, but an ally. . .and a friend." She gave her new acquaintance a warm smile, before turning her focus back to Nightmare Moon. The young soul within the Getter Robo felt touched. It was as if Professor Leon had taken the form of one of these strange beings, and was speaking directly to him. Jin reveled on the world that the Getter Ray Bomb had torn him away from. His brother, his colleagues, all left with the one assumption, that he was far too gone to be brought back. This filled the boy with unfounded bravado. Though this towering mare instilled the tiniest amount of fear, he redoubled his focus upon her, returning to it's combat pose as he readied for the un avoidable assault. Raising another complaisant brow, Nightmare Moon took on a miffed expression.

"Very well! I shall destroy the BOTH of you!" With an exasperated war cry, her horn expelled a beam, leaving the Getter only the token fraction of a second before it impacted. Celestia had already eluded, but the way the Getter had deceived the beam had caused both of the Alicorns to gaze slack-jawed in wonder.

"OPEN GETTER!"

The alien machine had separated into three different air ships! All were the colors hinting at it's full form, one slender and sleek, almost mirroring a dirigible in the way it's wings were formed, smooth and crimson. Towards it's nose was a honey comb pattern, dispersing down from three of these octagon shaped indents, then to two, then one. The second, a golden and rather bulky fighter, was outfitted with hefty thrusters that were attached to each side. The third, though not as sleek as the first, almost resembled a flying miniature tank. Though not visible from it's front, the sides of it's box shaped body concealed what seemed to be extremely durable tires. Powerful thrusters hidden in it's backside careened it forward as it darted about. Built to it's front, a cone shaped nose could be seen. The strange machines were now rocketing all around the chamber, and as suddenly as they had appeared, they dissapeared into the night.

Celestia gazed with a disappointing expression, believing that her new ally had abandoned her. Her muzzle wrinkled in distress, as she surmised it would be best if she lead Nightmare Moon away from the Castle Town to spare he subjects of the ongoing violence. She too, spread her wings and flew quickly through the gaping fracture in the ceiling. Nightmare Moon was quick to give chase, spreading her giant black wings silhouetted against the darkened room.

"And WHERE do you think YOU are going!?" She demanded confidently, her devious grin showing that no mercy was left within her. The two chased one another, the star covered sky glistening with beam after magical beam from Nightmare Moon as she sped after Celestia. The just Alicorn's efforts to lead her away had been for the most part fumbled, as she was forced to bob and weave within the primitive stone towers and bridges that made up her castle. Rubble and chunks of destroyed buildings flew to and fro, as many an attack from Nightmare Moon connected with her home. After many a missed attack, Nightmare Moon redoubled her efforts, and took care to aim with all of her focus. The shot to be fired would surely not miss, and it would mark Celestia's end. She squinted, chuckling evilly to herself as she prepared to fire.

"COMMIN' THROUGH, DIRTBAG!" The sudden shout caused the antagonist to fire off in a random direction, cursing as she did so. From seemingly out of nowhere, the three ships that had left previously slammed into her in unison, making the dark Alicorn grunt audibly - more in irritation than pain- as she was knocked but a few inches to the side. She brushed off the attack as if it were nothing, her sturdy frame showing no signs of internal or external injury. Turning her attention to where the aerial objects had flown, she was met with yet another anomaly from the strange foreign foe. Riding atop the shining red ship, which seemed to be the lead, was a neon green silhouette in the form of a canine figure, his pointed ears and long bushy tail bringing but one single possibility to her mind as she quietly breathed the thought aloud.

"A. . .A Diamond Dog!?" Her enthralled statement increased with volume as she spoke. How could a lowly mutt have ammased such a strange machine? No living creature in Equestria had technology even remotely mirroring such a device! The thought infuriated her, as she now focused her attention on it, rather than the fleeing Celestia.

"Okay, alright, this is working!" Jin Tetsu spoke excitedly to himself as he gracefully glided atop the Get Machine. He surmised the best armament now would be speed, and he knew exactly what tool to use that was in his arsenal. Filling his lungs to the brim, he prepared himself for yet another commanding cry.

"CHANGE GETTER TWO!"

In that moment, Jin heard a voice ring out in his mind.

"Jin. . . Jump. . . Jump,Jin. Now!" This stopped the boy's thoughts, and he focused on the disembodied sentence as he careened above the aged castle. His mind couldn't fathom who the voice belonged to- he had no recollection of anything like it in his memories before this world. It was as if the Getter Rays themselves were speaking to him within his mind, influencing and guiding him as he suddenly felt the overpowering urge to leap. Not even questioning the voice he assumed to be the Getter Rays, the boy kicked off, and flew gracefully in the air for a moment. The three Get Machines circled back around to him, and all slammed together, crushing him in the middle as his form liquefied and was absorbed by the Get Machines. Once again, a claw and a drill arm of powerful steel sprouted from each side of it's glimmering white torso, and the cone shaped head jutted out from it's top. The piercing yellow opticals of Getter Two now eyed Nightmare Moon with malice as she slowed to a stop only feet away. Snarling in mixed fury and bewilderment, she called out.

"You! Little Diamond Dog that dares have the nerve to challenge the all-powerful Nightmare Moon! Who are you, and what is that pathetic machine that you have the gal to fight against me with!? State it now, I command it!" Her condescending shouts caused the boy to cackle arrogantly as his Getter Two took a rather flashy pose, the moon light illuminating it and only adding to the very Storybook-esque stance.

"Alright "Nightmare Mongrel". I don't see a problem in telling you who I am, seeing as how it's the last name you're gonna' hear!" He stated, crossing Getter Two's arms.

"My name. . .is Jin Tetsu! And this- is my Getter Robo!" The vile Alicorn grimaced at such a foolish name. "Getter Robo". A childish name for an equally childish machine. How fitting, she thought. She would finish this quickly, she had no time to waste on this pile of floating metal. Charging up for another attack, Nightmare Moon called out to him.

"Well, "Jin Tetsu"! I hardly regret to inform you that your pathetic life is about to be CUT SHORT! Your Getter Robo is no match for my unlimited power!" She arched her back, and jolted her head swiftly forwards as a ridiculously large beam of magic fired. Jin sneered confidently, and thrusted Getter Two's drill arm forward with prowess.

"We'll see about that!" He called back.

"GETTER DRILL!"

The attacks impacted one another, but the spiraling drill of Getter Two held fast, dispersing the energy in all directions as the thrusters on the seemingly invincible machine's back slowly pushed it forward. Nightmare Moon didn't let up- in fact, she hadn't noticed her attack failed to do anything at all. She had assumed that he was already decimated, and she took much joy in assumingly frying him to a crisp in her searing assault. However, when her magic began to dwindle, and she saw the form of the Getter Robo approaching silhouetted in the fire of her magic, she began to worry. Before she could react, the mecha's drill had completely voided the beam, and had spiraled off, impacting with the side of her hefty steel helm. It shattered into pieces, falling to the ground in a cloud of metallic hail. However, the Alicorn underneath was unharmed. In fact, she wasn't the least bit detoured, she was now completely enraged beyond reason. Her brilliantly sparkling hair now flailed freely about, telegraphing her loath for the Getter Robo even more so.

"How DARE you strike your Queen, you arrogant little *PEASANT!***" Her bellow did nothing to scare or even make her foe the tiniest amount of uncomfortable. Instead, he laughed at her expense, pointing his drill at her as it were a taunting finger.

"Peasant? Is that honestly the best insult you've got in your snooty vocabulary, Nightmare Mute? That's just pathetic!" His cackles bore deep into mind like a railroad spike, her snout crinkling and her eyes twitching with unfounded vehemence. An Earth shaking bellow exploded from her lungs as she once again charged forward, eager to tear this "Jin Tetsu" fool into tiny pieces. Jin let out a small arrogant huff as he let her spiral forward. Nightmare Moon's fist cracked down with unparalleled force, and to her surprise, into the thin air that was now in front of her. With a distressed expression, she looked to and fro, unable to pinpoint the location of the Getter Robo.

"W-what? Where did you dissapear to, coward!? Show yourself!" Her demands seemingly fell upon deaf ears, until she suddenly saw a shadow cast over her.

"Right behind you."

Nightmare Moon turned quickly around, and her chest plating took the full force of yet another Getter Drill stab. Her chest plate shattered completely, exposing the dark purple tinged under clothing she wore beneath. The drill bore into her cleavage, tearing her clothing asunder. However, the Alicorn would not be so easily defeated. Though blood spurted from the newly formed affliction in her chest , she reacted just quickly enough to slap the drill aside, throwing the Getter Robo off just long enough to get herself out of the way. She gripped the gash in the middle of her chest as she growled, more in pain now than in disgruntlement. She took a small breath, and a whole new demeanor took her as she now eyed the Getter Robo not just as a foe, but as a threat.

"So. . .It seems I have underestimated you, Jin Tetsu. Your skills at the hands of this machine must truly be unparalleled among your kind, Diamond Dog." Her changed tone put the young fox on edge, as he now wondered what this whole "Diamond Dog" spout was about. Just what was a Diamond Dog, and why was she constantly calling him by that name? He was still a fox, wasn't he? It didn't matter. Whatever he had ostensibly been mutated into, it would not stop him from continuing his duel with this powerful antagonist. Getter Two's posture only boasted even more confidence as it struck another vibrant pose as it shimmered in the moonlight.

"That's right, lady! No matter the foe, no matter the power, my Getter Robo and the power of the Getter Rays will always pull me through! I don't care how tough you think you are! Nothing's gonna' stop me from putting my enemies in their place, and that includes you!" His cries echoed far and wide, and to the distant Celestia who watched with a hopeful heart. Would he really be able to falter the efforts of her now hate-polluted sister? Jin didn't give Nightmare Moon the time to respond, and was instantly upon her. Thrusting the Getter Two's claw arm forward, he embedded it deep within her midsection, completely knocking the wind out of her as she dwindled on the edge of unconsciousness. Even more blood gushed from her torso as she took the full force of the blow. Her limp form gasped for breath as her wings failed her, and The Alicorn began falling, only gaining speed as she spat and coughed, trying desperately to unfurl her wings to at least slow her descent.

"OPEN GETTER!"

Jin once again called to the super robot, and it split into it's three respective ships. Jin let his momentum carry his form to the ground. Only mere feet away, he took a deep breath, and his voice rang out as he called to the machines.

"CHANGE GETTER THREE!"

The pastel Getter Jaguar hovered just above the ground as it's self assigned destination drew closer. The three tires hidden on either side dispersed to meet the ground, a loud screech emanating as it now burnt rubber upon the dirt path that cut through the middle of the old kingdom's town. Jin's will power commanded his form to once again liquefy. The floating liquid energy made a bee-line for the approaching Getter Eagle, which nose dived and impacted with a new opening in Getter Jaguar's new roofing. It's armor expanded as it combined, forming what one could tell was an extremely cumbrous torso and mid section. In succession, Getter Bear followed, and it's form changed to match and fit perfectly into the pristine crimson body. Long, steel hued snake like arms sprouted out from the bulky thrusters that made up it's new arms, and a golden box shaped head escalated out. A front view-port opened upward, and Getter Three's blue facilitations now looked quickly up at the falling form of Nightmare Moon. Jin grinned confidently from within, knowing exactly what move to enact in continuation. Getter Three's lengthy arms reached up and caught the hefty Alicorn, who cried out in pain from the impossibly callous impact. Getter Three stood unmoved, expertly baring her wieght.

"Game set, Nightmare! Let's see how good those wings work now!" Jin's taunt caused the mare to attempt desperately break free, but what happened next made her wish that she had held onto it with every fiber. Both of Getter Three's hands clamped tightly down, one on her head, and one on her legs. Jin thrusted the machine's arms upward in a spiral, sending the dark Alicorn twisting upward into the air as she cried out in fear. Jin drew a deep breath, and another war cry emanated from him.

"GREAT AVALANCHE!"

Once again, commemorating Musashi Tomoe, the arms of Getter Three snaked outward and upward, spinning so quickly that the force created an impenetrable twister. The power of the swift wind spun the already disoriented Nightmare Moon about as she struggled to regain balance in the overpowering gusts. To no avail, she was torn from side to side, up and down, all about the careening arms. She was slammed into them again and again, the speed giving her horrid burns as they spun her in alternation. She cried out in frustrated agony as the tornado slowed to a stop, and the brutally battered foe fell to the ground with a sickening crack.

"Like I said before, Nightmare! No matter the foe, and no matter how tough you think you are- I'll always be just as tough! You're definitely no match for the power of the Getter Rays, so I'll give you one last chance! Give it up, or I'm not gonna' to show you any more mercy!" His confident stipulations were met with the Alicorn cackling and coughing as she shakily picked herself back up to her hooves. Her chortles only grew with volume as she looked at the Getter with a truly terrifying combination of hatred and madness. Her slitted pupils shrunk as she bared her shark like teeth, grinning menacingly at her foe.

"You believe you've beaten me, you ignorant little cretin?" She began, as her horn began to glow. Jin took this as a sign to ready himself to Open Getter, for he assumed that she would again try and strike him with another magic bolster. However, what she did next was much, much more terrifying for the unfortunate Diamond Dog.

"I have faced foes vastly more powerful than yourself! Your attacks do little but to make me itch." Her reprimandation ended as her horn discharged a magical barrier, encasing her. Much to Jin's disheartenment, her visible sears and chest gouge had dissipated, and her armor had been rekindled from the various fragments lay strewn about the kingdom. From afar, Celestia watched with an anxious tangibility, for she knew the courageous Diamond Dog would not be able to stand against her sinister sister for much longer. She quickly sped off, knowing precisely what she needed to do now. Though every fiber of her being was against even the thought, she knew that if Equestria was ever to see the light of day again, she had to steel herself and put her feelings aside. For the sake of not just this strange Diamond Dog, but for her people.

"I have been much too lenient with you, Jin Tetsu." Nightmare Moon stated, confidently striding towards the Getter, her horn still aglow with the pretense to some sort of magical act.

"-But now I realize that was a small mistake on my part, and now, I will end this dimwitted charade." Jin was fed-up with her constant blabbering, and tried to thrust the arms of Getter Three forward to encase the Alicorn in it's lengthy appendages. One could understand his worry when he found that they failed to respond. With an irritated grunt, Jin turned his attention to them, and found that Nightmare's magic had encased them. She commanded them to snake around him instead, and bind him in place.

Jin gasped in despair as he watched the sinister Alicorn slowly approach, her crazed expression showing that she knew that she now had her prey cornered. He cursed, and tried desperately to shake himself free and regain control of the frozen machine. His now frightened grunts and cries of frustration caused the Alicorn to cackle evily, placing her hands on her hips as she was now only twelve feet away. Jin realized that trying to regain control was a fruitless effort, and decided it would be best to try a last ditch effort.

"OPEN GETTER!"

His cries apparently hadn't reached his Getter, as he found it wouldn't respond to any of his desperate commands. He frantically called out again and again, and still the super robot feigned to respond. Nightmare Moon was now upon him, looking down upon him with a gaze of twisted satisfaction. She pushed her hefty chest plate up against the halted robot, and moved her snout uncomfortably close as her piercing eyes looked directly into the Getter's. She flashed a maniacal toothy grin, before quietly speaking to him.

"I'm going to enjoy slowly ripping apart your little toy, *Diamond Mutt*." Without another word, her bulky arm muscles flexed as she gripped both of Getter Three's arms at the shoulders. With one swift movement, she tore them completely out of their sockets. A bright green liquid gushed out and splashed around it as she heard a cry of pain come from within. Jin had lost all feeling in his arms, and could no longer move them. Pain shot up his entire torso as he screeched, the terrible affliction encasing him like a vice made of fire. It seemed that not only was Jin connected mentally to the Getter, but physically as well. This had made things much more satisfying for Nightmare Moon as she continued to barbarically mutilate the machine.

The neon green liquid spilled out of all the large lacerations, the boy within having gone into shock, the pain too much for his body and mind to bare. However, the Getter Energy was keeping him coherent, as if to punish him for, and he could only assume, misusing the Getter Rays in this strange world. He could only sit and watch despairingly as Nightmare Moon ripped the Getter into pieces, until only the head and torso were left barely in tact. The glowing liquid had splattered all over her, making her appear even more barbaric as she breathed heavily, her eyes ablaze with fury as she cackled aloud.

"Where are your Getter Rays now, Jin Tetsu? What was all this confident pish-posh about these "All Powerful Getter Rays" and the presumably invincible Getter Robo? I'll tell you exactly what has happened- Your feeble Getter Rays have abandoned you. " Her taunts weighed heavily on the poor boy's heart. Yes, where had the Getter Rays gone? And why hadn't they helped him break free of her magical grasp? Why had they seen fit to punish him in such a way, so intensely as to not even feel his own pain anymore? His thoughts were suddenly ripped away as Nightmare Moon struck into the torso of Getter Three, making the near lifeless boy let out a tiny breath signaling his faint pain in his weakened state. Blow after blow dug into the torso, until it was but a standing mess of bent scrap and energy stained steel. Jin's faltering vision was no longer one with the machine's , and the gaping hole in the automaton's chest gave the full view of the vile Alicorn reaching for his throat. He could do nothing to stop her as her hand tightly gripped his windpipe, ripping him out of the machine as his shining form began to slowly fade away to his original colors.

The Alicorn chortled at him once more as she studied the seemingly tiny Diamond Dog she now held by the throat, crushing his throat as she took joy in watching him weakly gasp for breath. Jin welcomed death at this point, not even bothering to breath as he now surmised that again, he had been bested, and there was no way to escape but death. Again, he would have to watch himself slowly slip away. This time, he was sure Hell awaited him. If this was the way the Getter Rays saw fit to end him, then so be it. Maybe, if he'd gone, he'd be re-united with Gou once again. This comforted him somewhat as he let himself go limp, feigning to struggle as his vision began to fade. In an instant, the Alicorn loosened her grip, and the boy gasped loudly, coughing and gasping as fresh air flooded his lungs. He looked to the crazed foe with a confused look as his choking slowly subsided.

"Did you honestly think I'd give you luxury of death, Jin Tetsu? Did you think that, after all the annoyance and frustration you have caused me, that I will let you just slip away before properly punishing you? Oh no, you sorry little creature. No one has infuriated me as greatly as you have, and I see fit to make you suffer." Her chilling words re-instated Jin's despair as Nightmare Moon dropped his limp form to the ground, placing a hoof on his chest. She leaned over him, the pressure from her muscular leg cracking the canine's already decimated ribs. She put a pondering finger to her lips as she spoke.

"Now, what to do with you, hm? I do believe that all this pain is no where near enough. However, now that your body has failed you, perhaps you wouldn't feel any other punishment I instill upon you. A rather puzzling ordeal, wouldn't you agree?" Her cold hearted words were met with a mixture of blood and saliva hitting her directly in the eye. She yelped, gripping it as she barely even faltered from the spot. She quickly rubbed the fluid out, and her vision refocused on an arrogantly grinning Jin. Her expression slackened in discontent as her half eyed stare pierced into him.

"Even when beaten, you still have no clue when to halt your foolish little resistances, do you?" She growled. She wanted so desperately to kick that smug little maw of his right in, to smash it into a bloodied heap and exact her revenge. However, she knew he would have no feeling of it. That just wouldn't do. Jin wheezed as he silently chuckled, leaning his head back in exhaustion.

"I-I'll n-never. . .stop r-resisting, y-you bastard. . .My b-body may have failed me, but I won't g-give up. . .I refuse. . .T-to give in to a sick, t-twisted freak like you." His weak voice telegraphed to the Alicorn Goddess that he was through. There was no way he could stop her from killing him at this moment, so he thought it would be best if he felt triumphant to some extent before she did away with him. However, as she had stated before, Nightmare Moon was far from finished with him. She pondered what she could possibly do to break his annoying little spirit, and pain was the only way she knew to punish confident sores such as Jin with pain. She dug her hoof into his chest, grinding it about as she thought. Jin only grunted silently in response, the lack of air being of more feeling to him than the hefty hoof that churned around his fragments of remaining ribs.

The Alicorn looked down at him, studying him more thoroughly now that she had the chance. To be completely honest with herself, she didn't find him the least bit physically appalling- in fact, he was quite handsome for a Diamond Dog. He may have been quite lanky, but his smooth boyish curves were well sculpted. Though bruised and battered, the profile of his short snout was rather cute- and his long night-black hair was holding her interest. At the precipice of her near drooling over this admirable creature, a sick, horrendously evil thought crossed her mind, and she pervertedly smirked with the pretense to the one thing she knew that could finally break him. She purred maliciously as she removed her hoof from his chest.

Jin was barely able to raise a curious brow as she knelt down over him, her bulky and well curved thighs straddling him as she gently settled her weight atop his chest. Jin's breath was forced from his lungs as soon got a faint idea of what was about to take place, though he still only grasped a minuscule fraction as his mind dwindled on the edge of unconsciousness. She leaned over him, tightly taking ahold of both of the little Diamond Dog's arms as she nearly crushed them into halves. She forced him by means of her magic to meet her lecherous stare, and she roughly grinded her snout into his as she bared her teeth.

"I think I know just what to do with you, little Jin." Her once booming and overbearing voice was now soft, but it's tone gave her plan right away, and caused the boy's grey cheeks to flush a bright pink. He grunted in protest, trying frantically to free himself from the perverted Alicorn's intentious grip as he then began to whimper. Nightmare Moon lustfully growled as she tightened her grip upon his arms, causing blood to begin gushing as a soft snap sounded out. Jin spat blood as she could only sigh, though he so badly wanted to scream with all the air he had in his exasperated lungs.

"Stop fidgeting, peasant. I cannot inflict anymore pain upon you, as I so wish. I see fit to punish you with. . .other means. This is the repercussion you have brought upon yourself, Jin Tetsu. I suggest that you co-heed, or I shall endeavor to humiliate you even more so." Her poisonous tone caused the defenseless boy to feebly shiver in fear. This can't be happening. This couldn't possibly be happening. Not to him, not like this. It was almost unreal to him, the awkward embarrassment very tangible as he could only whimper as she slowly tore his Gi into pieces, exposing his bare form to the eager Nightmare Moon.

"My my, what a handsome little thing you are." She cooed, gently stroking her hand up and down his silky fur covered chest. Jin groaned in disgust as he looked away, not wanting to look as the vile act took place. He felt his head jolt forward forcibly as Nightmare once again painfully dug her muzzle into his.

"You are going to watch as I humiliate you, mutt. If you dare to look away again, I will rip your loins clean off, do we have an understanding?" Her livid threat caused Jin to shudder, tears forming in his eyes as he used every ounce of strength to simply nod. The lecherous Alicorn snickered, before patting him atop the head like a house pet.

"Good dog. Now, the real punishment begins." She reached for his groin painfully slow, as Jin prepared for the worst. That was until, Nightmare Moon's reaching hand stopped abruptly, and began to shake for some strange reason. Confused, Jin looked to the face of his foe , and he too stared in surprise. Deeply embedded in her horn, was an extremely large Katana. Jin pondered for a moment- this couldn't have belonged to that "Celestia" character, she had run off and left him to fend for himself, and he didn't remember her carrying any weapon of the sort. That was the only person he surmised it could have belonged to, and if not her. . .then who?

Jin groggily followed the trajectory of where it had been thrown from, and his heart nearly leaped out of his chest in joy at what he saw next. Not too far off from the two, there stood none other than a Getter Robo. It's jet black armor shined brilliantly in the light of the moon overhead, and it's diamond studded scarf flowed gracefully in the wind. However, the Getter Robo was not the reason entirely that Jin had his hope completely renewed. Over the Black Getter's "mouth armor", were a pair of Sky-Blue V-shaped shades. Jin knew only one person that wore those shades-

-And that was Gou Tetsu.

Chapter Three : The Elements of Harmony

It seemed like ages ago that I had been standing there, atop Getter Eagle with my younger brother. Because of those idiots firing the Getter Ray Bomb, I'm sure that now my home world was completely uninhabitable. I knew the effects of nuclear radiation, and what the repercussions would be if any trigger happy jackass decided he didn't like something being in the same world as him. That's one thing I really can't stand. People that act on their fear, rather than trying to understand. Because of someone else's fuck up, Jin and I were blasted off the face of the Earth. We were dead.

Or were we?

Darkness. It was all Gou Tetsu could see after the Getter Ray Bomb's eruption had encased him. It was as if death it's self was holding him in it's arms, keeping him but a vague consciousness as his mind sparked to. This had to be the afterlife. After the lives that they had taken, though evil, he surmised that whatever God ruled their world had punished him by making him drift in nothingness for all eternity. However, he soon felt a tinge of an ache in what he could only assume was his left arm. At a snail's pace, feeling slowly flowed back into him, and he soon could feel his own aching body again. He tried to weekly move, and his limbs slowly responded. First, his fingers, his toes, and everything else soon followed. They all creaked and snapped in protest, causing him to let out a weak groan as he was soon functioning once again. His eye lids gently lifted, and he then had a view of the nightmarish void he was now drifting through.

It was a depressing, deep grey plane that seemed to stretch on as far as the Universe it's self. Baring an even lighter shade of grey, almost steel colored, tendrils of some sort of strange energy drifted in a spiral to one point far at the other end of the void. The Fox's mind was assaulted by a flurry of questions he desperately wanted answers to. What exactly was this place? Was this in fact, the afterlife? Was he doomed to drift through nothingness forever? At least one of his questions would be answered, when he saw his form grow dark with a shadow, casting over his comparably tiny form.

Quickly jolting himself around, he found himself body-to-face with the machine he had previously piloted when he was among the living. The Getter Robo hovered but a foot away from him, it's ominous neon yellow eyes sparking to life and illuminating it's full form. Gou instantly noticed that this one was extremely different from the Getter he used to control in combat. Rather than being adorned with the crimson red armor than the iconic original, this one's armor was pitch black, with a golden belt wrapping around it's waist. Over the lower half of it's face, was a heavily armored mouth plate. Around this ominous super robot's neck was the scarf that the Tetsu Twins had taken to wearing, super-sized to fit the titanic machine. Last but not least, and very much to Gou's liking, were the very pair of Sky Blue V-shaped sunglasses that the young fox fashioned. Gou let out a small whistle showing his admiration. This wasn't half bad, to be completely honest with himself.

"Lookin' snazzy, Getter Robo. I'm seriously liking this new design!" His gruff voice caused the Getter to, and very much to his surprise, move it's head up to meet his studying gaze. Gou was taken back by this, very much awed that this machine was somehow moving of it's own free will. Calming down quickly, Gou was now extremely elated that his Getter Robo, his life long friend, could now function independently. He let out a quick excited laugh before preparing to speak. He was instantly interrupted by a voice he had not heard in many, many years.

"G. . . .Gou. . . .Tetsu. . . . ." The strong, deep male voice caused the fox's eyes to widen profusely as his ears adjusted in disbelief. Could this be? No. . .He had left them years ago, when even Gou was still just a young kit.

"AKIRA!"

At the mere mention of that name, at the tiniest sound of his voice, Gou's mind rocketed back in time. His faint memory gave him the blurry vision of a figure, baring a strong resemblance to him and his little brother.

"I have to go now, little brother."

"W-where are you going, Akira?"

"I have. . .things. . .I need to take care of."

". . . . . . . . .Take me with you!"

"Heh heh heh. . . .You truly do have our father's fearless spirit, little brother. I'm sorry, Gou. This is something I don't want you to get involved in, for your own safety."

"B-But. . .Akira!-"

"Not another word, Gou."

". . . ."

"Take care of Jin, will you?"

"W-Will I see you again, big brother?"

"This isn't goodbye, Gou. I'll always be with you, in your heart, and at your back. No matter where you are, and no matter what you are doing. I will always watch over you, Gou Tetsu. Never forget that."

Gou's eyes filled with tears, which he quickly wiped away. He lifted his head back up to the machine floating in front of him, returning his look.

"A-Akira? Is that . . . really you?"

The Black Getter Robo turned it's view to the side, and to his surprise yet again, it responded.

"Yes . . . . . . . and no . . . . . . I cannot explain yet. You are not ready for the truth."

Gou gave a confused look, and tried to think of something to retort with. His mind was swimming with thousands of unanswered questions. However, the Black Getter baring his eldest brother's voice disregarded them.

"Jin . . . He is in trouble, Gou. I can feel him crying out for your help."

Gou's expression immediately intensified with concern and anger.

"W-What!? What do you mean?!"

In response, the Black Getter Robo's mouth guard flipped down, and the main chamber door on the hidden lower face opened to reveal the pilot's seat.

"There is not much time, Gou. Quickly, we must depart! Climb inside, and let us go to our youngest sibling!"

Gou's maw contorted with a self conceited grin.

"You never did like answering any of my questions, you elusive bastard." He chuckled. Without another word, he climbed into the cockpit, and took a hold of the controls with a furious grip. The chamber door closed, and the mouth guard flipped back up in succession.

"Alright, Akira. If that's really you in there, then guide me out of here!" Gou called out. Gou had not noticed this earlier, what with his older sibling seemingly possessing the Getter, but a faint eight pointed scarlet star had appeared at the center of the spiral at the edge of the void.

"Heh, talk about showing me the way. Alright Akira, let's go!"

"GETTER WING!"

As they flew, they gained speed. The deep steel hued tendrils reached out and engulfed them, tremendously increasing their Getter Energy as they lurched forward. Gou was not the least bit detoured by the increasing G-Force, and held the controls with a near bone crushing grip. He wouldn't stop. He had to find Jin. He had to save his brother from another untimely demise. The light enveloped them, taking them far away from the void. Gou's eyes had shut due to the blinding light, but he was still very much coherent. Without warning, his arms and legs were thrown out to each side, and the feeling of the seat of the Getter Robo disappeared out from under him. He soon felt himself drifting quickly for a moment, a feeling of nausea briefly gripping him before it faded, replacing it's self with the feeling of solid ground beneath his feet.

His eyes sluggishly opened, and his hearing faded back into focus. As it did so, he was greeted by voices.

"I-Is it a monster?"

"It looks more like some sort of an advanced contraption. . ."

"I hope it doesn't mean any harm. . ."

"What in the world could it possibly be?"

"Someone should call the guard!"

Gou's vision finally regained full focus, and he was taken aback by what now filled his view. He seemed to be in some sort of primitive Medieval Era town, and he was surrounded by. . . Multi colored horses? What in the hell was this place? Gou looked to his left, to his right, and all around himself, studying these strange new creatures. He seemed to be taller than them. Huh, they were little ponies.

"You there! Halt! In the name of Equestria, state your name and business, or we will have no choice but to attack!"

The sudden shout caused Gou to lurch around, facing whoever had called him out. More of these strange ponies had arrived, and were all heavily armored. The were armed with long spears, all pointed at him. Gou huffed, and threw his scarf aside. Wait. . . that wasn't his own arm he had just seen placing his scarf over his shoulder. He gasped, and his head jolted downward to study himself. Much to his surprise, it seemed that he and the Black Getter Robo had become one. This explained why he no longer felt himself sitting in the pilot's seat. He was the pilot's seat.

"I will not ask again, steel beast! State your name and business!"

Gou huffed arrogantly, turning his attention back to guards. He eyed them with caution, and calmly spoke back to them.

"My name doesn't matter. As for what I'm doing, you can take comfort in the fact that I mean none of you any harm. I'm looking for. . .someone I know." His reply caused the lead Guard to put her spear to the Getter Robo's throat. Gou growled in angry anticipation.

"I ordered you state your name, monster." Her grim tone didn't put Gou off in the slightest. In fact, in a blur of black steel, he completely smashed the spear into tiny splintered pieces. The Guards all stumbled back in fear, all whispering among themselves as Gou spoke once more.

"I said my name doesn't matter. I also said that I mean you no harm, so that should suffice. Don't make me revoke that statement, lady." His own grim tone dwarfed the Lead Guard's completely, and she stepped back, shakily gripping what was left of her spear as the surrounding citizens all backed away quickly. Gou turned his back to the group of defenders, and began to walk away.

"If you can't help me, then I'll just find him mysel-"

Gou was knocked forward a few steps, as he felt a powerful beam of energy connect with his back. He grimaced from within, and menacingly turned to see the Lead Gaurd's horn aglow with an orange hue. She smirked, taking pride in the fact she had scored a blow against this mechanical beast, to what little effect it had.

"I commanded you to state your identity and business, whelp. If you fail to heed my commands once more, I will have no choice but to strike you again."

As much as Gou's dislike for these people was growing, he could understand how their primitive society feared that which they did not understand. The fox smirked mischievously, deciding a good scare would ward them off rather than ripping them to pieces.

"GETTER BEAM!"

The Black Getter Robo's mid section opened up, revealing some sort of amplifying transparent piece as it sparked with a bright neon pink energy. Aiming it into the sky, the force from the succeeding blast knocked the nearby Guards and citizens right onto their collective plots. The beam fired high into the sky, and with a vibrant explosion, briefly lit the town. The Guards, now cowering on the ground at the daunting attack, all whimpered as they got to their feet. In a fit of yelps and terrified screams, the guards and nearby towns folk all scrambled away. Gou huffed triumphantly as he stormed away, beginning his search of the small town. That was until, a powerful gust of wind caught his attention. In the distance, he heard a voice cry out.

"GREAT AVALANCHE!"

Gou didn't even have to contemplate. He knew that only one person knew what that phrase invoked, and the sheer power that followed. That was, without a doubt, his younger brother. He dawned his Getter Wing, and took off to the spot that the wind had eminated from.

"If I cannot punish you using pain, then this is the only means of which I can truly break that annoying little spirit of yours, Jin Tetsu." The poisonous yet enticing tone of Nightmare Moon bore deep into the mind of Jin Tetsu, signaling his despair and fear for the over powering mare as she reached for his groin.

Gou Tetsu landed but a few yards away, assessing the situation. He could immediately surmise that whoever that was holding down and having her way with his brother was the enemy, and he would waste no time seeing if he was wrong. He silently uttered the command for the Getter Tomahawk, but was alarmed when nothing happened.

"W-What the? Why isn't the Getter Tomahawk appearing?" He thought aloud. Again, he heard Akira speak to him from within the Getter Robo.

"So it seems the Getter Robo has changed to fit your form, for whatever reason the Getter Rays saw this fitting. Call for your Katanas, Gou!" The fox cursed, looking to his belt to see that the sheaths dangling from it bore no weapons. He pondered for a moment, and could only assume that like the original Getter's shoulders, the sheaths would generate weapons when commanded. He took a deep breath, and shouted the command at the top of his lungs.

"GETTER KATANA!"

His suspicions were confirmed when a single Katana jutted forth from the sheath. The shout had thankfully not alerted the muscular foe, who was much more distracted with molesting the limp form of Jin. With a powerful pitch, Gou thrusted the Katana forward, and it flew with great speed through the air as it whistled. Gou sneered in success as he saw it embed in the the horn of the vile enemy, her attention being focused on it now, rather than his younger brother.

"W-What in Equestria. . ." Nightmare Moon uttered as she turned her attention in the direction from where it had been thrown. She gasped as a new machine had taken position but a foot away from her. It made no movement, only staring down at her with pure hatred as it suddenly spoke.

"Let. My. Brother. Go." The frightening nearly in-pony growl put off the Alicorn just long enough for Gou to embed the Black Getter Robo's fist deep within her gut. Nightmare Moon coughed in pain as she was sent flying backwards with back breaking speed, skidding and rolling to a halt on her back. The Katana detached from her horn, quickly spiraling into a nearby building and completely cutting through. It disappeared inside without another sound. As the dust cleared and the Alicorn weekly picked herself back up, she jolted in fear and took a step back as once again, this new Getter Robo stood only inches from her. Gou slammed a decimating elbow into her shoulder, knocking her violently into the ground with a sickening crunch.

"Get up." The composed yet obviously infuriated tone of the pilot put the mighty Princess of the Night into a fearful state, as she surmised what to do. Taking the time to think turned out to be a mistake on her part, as she felt a heavily armored foot slam into her side.

"I said GET UP!"

The Alicorn was thrown perfectly onto her feet, nearly tripping over herself as she regained her balance. Her brief fear was replaced with a great rage, as she spouted a lecture to the machine.

"Yet another one of you "Getter Robo" fools has appeared, so it seems! Do not think you have bested me, worm! You simply had the advantage of surprise on your hands, and you so lowly struck me in silence rather than facing me yourself! I shall do away with you, just as I have done to your pathetic brother, Jin Tets-" The Alicorn was instantly interrupted by another Katana embedding in her horn.

"You talk way too much, kid." Gou insulted, grabbing another Katana from the sheath on his golden belt. He took a very samurai-esque pose, holding his Katana out in front of him. Nightmare Moon snarled in rage, wrenching the Katana from her horn as she threw it aside.

"How DARE you strike your Queen, you unappreciative, ignorant little-" Again, her ranting was cut short by yet a third Katana. Gou chuckled darkly at her expense as another Katana was pulled from it's sheath. The Alicorn was surprised none the less by the staggering speed of this new foe. It was of little concern to her. She would just have to focus. She too, took a fighting stance, and readied herself to rip this new Getter Robo apart. In an instant, the two were at each other's throats, each throwing missing blows only to have the other counter attack and repeating the lightning quick match of God-Like fisty-cuffs.

Meanwhile, back in the Castle. . .

Princess Celestia walked with a heavy heart into the demolished throne room, and eyed a center patch on the cold stone floor. She fought back tears as her magic sparked to life, lifting a hidden plate and revealing a square shaped gap in the floor.

"Oh, dear sister. . .I am sorry, but you have given me no choice-!" She spoke aloud. In response to the machanism opening, a large pedestal lifted into her view.

"-But to use these!"

It was globe themed, having smaller pedestals revolving around it. On each of these, was a vibrant gem, all different colors resembling the rainbow. The Princess floated to the top, and used her magic to lift each into her grasp. From the globe topping the structure, a sixth gem appeared, baring resemblance to a six pointed star. As they neared her, each responded to the other, and began to quickly revolve around her until they were but a blurred ring. Raw power boomed from the Alicorn's form, as she was nearly shrouded by the radiant light.

She took back to the night sky, the safety of Jin Tetsu and her people being the only concern to her now. However, what she saw next would be completely unexpected.

"GETTER BEAM!"

The earth shaking shout from Gou signaled the Getter Robo's signature move, and a florescent pink beam erupted from it's stomach. Nightmare Moon used her magic to create a blue glass like shield, that completely dispelled the attack. As she lowered it, she found Gou only inches in front of her, and that is when she took a grim notice of the scytche like blades adorning it's right arm. With a quick slash, the blades gouged through her tough armor, and deep into her well formed abdominals. She grunted in pain as blood gushed from the spot, and was thrown back far in the air. Princess Celestia's fear soon turned to hope, for she, though this one was much different in style, recognized the newcomer as yet another Getter Robo. She smiled, quickly diving into the battle.

Gou took quick notice of the approaching Alicorn, and readied for a two-on-one duel. This thought was thrown aside as the Princess held up a halting hand.

"I am not your enemy, Getter Robo. I too, wish to put a stop to my sister's actions." The words calmed Gou, but his grasp on the situation at hand had just gotten that much more prominent.

"So that's your sister. . . She's a real piece of work." He wheezed.

"I'm hoping you've got an end game, ma'am. I don't know how much longer I can keep using her as a punching bag, no offense to you." He chuckled.

The Princess motioned the the blurry ring revolving around her. As she looked down to motion to said artifacts, the sight of the destroyed Getter Robo below caused her to gasp.

"J-Jin Tetsu! What has happened to him!?" She cried out in worry.

Gou grimaced, and gave her the blunt truth.

"Well, I ain't gonna' sugar coat this. Seems like your sister got the best of him, and tried to. . ." He nearly gagged as he continued.

". . .Rape him."

This plucked deeply at Celestia's heart strings, and a new found rage burned brightly within her. Her hands balled up into tight fists, and tears welled at her eyes. From this, she now knew that the Luna she once was kin with was long gone. Luna would never do such a vile thing to such a young colt, let alone hurt or injure any of her people. She had been replaced by a heartless, vile monster. The Princess turned her attention back to Gou.

"You, courageous Mechanical Warrior. Do you have a name?" She inquired shakily. Gou chuckled at the similarity between the two of them before responding.

"Call me Gou. Gou Tetsu. I guess you could tell from my name that Jin and I are brothers." Princess Celestia nodded to him, before introducing herself.

"I am Princess Celestia, ruler of this land of Equestria, the one who raises the sun at dawn to start the day, and lower it to begin the night. However, this is not the case tonight. My sister has refused to lower the moon. She has grown petty and jealous because our subjects worship and thrive in the day, and in turn, shun and sleep through the night. It is a sad fact that my subjects fear that which they do not understand, and I so deeply wish that my sister could have accepted this truth. She could have tried to help them understand, rather than lowering herself to this evil state."

Gou sneered angrily. So his suspicions were correct. These ponies were just a ignorant, cowardly folk that would jump at the sight of their own shadows. He now knew the root of the problem, and why Nightmare Moon had become the dark, sinister figure he was fighting. He understood what it was to be shunned and hated, and now felt the tiniest bit sorry for their ignorant foe.

"She's going to pay for what she's done. I'll try my best not to rip her throat out, but I can't promise I won't at least knock some sense into her. I just can't forgive her for trying to do what she had planned to my brother."

The realization of Gou's love for his younger caused the pastel Alicorn even more grief. This poor soul nearly had to witness his younger sibling get violated by her hate-blinded sister. She grimaced, and spoke to Gou once more.

"Gou Tetsu, I deeply apologize that you and your brother had to endure the hardships of my mistakes. I should have stayed and protected Jin Tetsu, rather than fleeing to get the Elements of Harmony. It was because of my fear that your younger. . .had to. . . .had to endure the lustful ambitions of that monster." Her voice was shaking greatly as she spoke, causing Gou to feel deeply sorry for her. She truly was a good mare, shedding tears over someone she barely even knew. Gou smiled and sighed in condolence, as he placed a gentle hand on the Princess's shoulder.

"Don't even think like that, Princess. I don't blame you one bit. If anyone's to blame. . .You know who that is. So let's finish this together!" He grabbed her hand within his metal palm, and gave it a gentle squeeze. The Princess smiled affectionately as she nodded, and turned their attention back to the recovering Nightmare Moon, who howled in rage.

"You both shall die together, you sad, pathetic little-" For the fourth God Forsaken time, she found a Katana stuck in her horn. With a booming cry of rage, she charged forward, hot white energy radiating under her as she careened at them. Gou unsheathed another Katana as Celestia prepared the Elements of Harmony. The three of them battled ferociously in the skies above, the rage fueled power of Nightmare Moon being almost too much for the two to bare alone.

Far on the ground below, Jin faded in and out of consciousness. His battered body failed to respond to any of the commands he sent out, and he surmised that it would be too late to save him when the white mare and his brother had done away with Nightmare Moon. Those thoughts were put to rest when that strange voice, whom Jin had thought to be the Getter Rays from before, spoke to him once more.

"It is not over, Jin Tetsu. Look to your left."

Jin grunted as it took a great amount of effort just to move his head to the side. Thankfully his neck still responded, sluggishly turning his gaze. The broken scrap heap that was once Getter Three blurred into his vision, and Jin took notice to the neon green liquid that had poured from and pooled around it. It was slowly flowing towards him, and it soon seeped up against his arm. In a tiny flash of brilliant green light, he could feel his arm again, briefly flaring in pain as the strange fluid seeped up his wrist and into his wounds. One by one, the wounds began to disappear. This Getter Energy liquid seemed to be healing him, right down to the torn scraps of clothing that Nightmare Moon had ripped apart. Jin wheezed in relief as the healing liquid had encased his body, dissipating his wounds and returning his form to it's once pristine state.

"The Getter Rays never abandoned you, Jin. They have always been with you, just I have been." This statement stopped Jin as he shakily stood. That statement clued him on the the fact that this voice wasn't at all the Getter Rays. Who could it possibly have been? There was no time to ponder on the identity of the disembodied guide. He had to help his brother and that mare. However, how was he to do so without his Getter Robo? His question was answered when what was left of the neon green liquid flowed back into the scrapped machine. Though still very much broken, it's optics and the green plating on it's chest began to glow with the same aura.

"Climb back inside, Jin." The foreign voice commanded. Jin had no time to argue, and did as the voice had told him to. He skittered back through the massive hole in what remained of the torso, and was briefly encased in darkness. He sat there for a moment, wondering why nothing was happening. The Getter, though somehow sparking back to life, still didn't replace his view through it's eyes. He tried placing his hands on the machine, talking to it, and even kicking it when he grew frustrated at his failed attempts. Once again, the voice sounded off, and guided him with it's next words.

"Command the Getter to activate, Jin! Use the power of your will to bring it back to life, and rekindle it's shattered form!" Command it to active? What exactly did that mean? Was there some sort of special command he had to shout, just like all other functions concerning the Getter's power? He would only know if he tried something.

"Getter, let's go!" He called. His voice was met with more dwindling silence as he cursed silently.

"C'mon Getter, showtime!" He shouted. Still nothing.

A cry of pain caught his attention, followed by a despairing cry of protest. He hurriedly poked his head outside of the Getter's chest cavity. He was shocked to see Nightmare Moon, brandishing one of Gou's Getter Katanas. It had completely run the Black Getter Robo all the way through, and she soon tossed him to the side. Gou's machine careened to the ground, impacting with a quaking crash as rubble and dust was thrown in all directions. The white Alicorn from before bore an extremely worried expression, and Jin soon had the same. He had to get his Getter Robo working again, and damn quick. He went deep into thought, trying to call out to the super robot with his mind. His mental commands were met with a phrase crossing his train of thought. A single phrase crossed his mind in response, and his eyes shot open with fury.

"GETTER ROBO, POWER UP! SWITCH ON!"

With the command of that final rallying cry, Jin's efforts to rekindle the Getter Robo came to fruition. The Getter Energy like liquid that was previously pouring from it's dents and fractures turned of it's own accord, levitating back into the damaged machine. In a booming flash of pure Getter Energy, the super robot became but a black silhouette in the orb of erratically radiating power. The sound of the energy eruption and the bright flash was noticed by the warring Alicorns in the sky above. The both stopped completely, gazing down at where it had originated from. As their gazes locked onto the point, in the few short seconds it had taken, a powerful gust of wind turned their attention elsewhere.

A blur of deep crimson, pearl white, and shining gold zoomed by, rocketing high into the sky before disappearing above the clouds. Riding atop the nose of Getter Eagle like a rocket propelled surf board, Jin Tetsu grinned with determined fury as he cackled aloud.

"Thanks for sticking with me, Getter Rays." Jin uttered. Kneeling down on one knee, he prepared himself to jump.

"Alright Nightmare Moon, round two! Let's go! CHANGE, GETTER ONE!"

Celestia and Nightmare Moon both returned their attention to each other. Celestia now bore a confident smirk, and Nightmare Moon an expression of new found worry. She knew that Jin Tetsu, though his speed compared to his elder brother was much slower, his timing and use of each of the Getter's forms was a force to be reckoned with. She redoubled her efforts and surmised stopping Celestia would be the best course of action before Jin

Tetsu returned. They clashed, and the vibrant eruption could be seen from all the fleeing citizens below.

A flurry of Elemental Powered fists and rage fueled strikes impacted into both of the opponents as they fought, though continuing to exchange blows as if they were nothing. The fight between the two Gods came to a halt as a Getter Tomahawk nearly sliced Nightmare Moon in two. With a powerful beat of her black wings, she darted to the side as the Getter Robo of Jin Tetsu followed close by. He slowed to a stop a few feet under the foe, raising the machine's fist up in preparation for an uppercut. Catching her right on the chin, Nightmare Moon was tossed upwards with great force. In succession, Jin fired a Getter Beam, impacting right in the Alicorn's midsection. However, the vile antagonist chopped down into it with her fist, sending the energy blasting off in either direction.

Not wasting any time running her mouth, her eyes shined over with a bright white light, and the energy under her flared with her temper. She fired a gigantic beam of magic from her horn, and it was headed right towards Celestia. The Alicorn charged up the Elements of Harmony, and greeted the blast with her own. In a mixture of golden energy and rainbow light, the blast matched if not succeeding it in size. The power struggle was on as the two poured all of their will and power into the attack, their magic enacting a God's game of Tug-of-War.

"Here, I'll help you!" Jin called out.

"GETTER BEAM!"

Adding his own bar of enery to the assault, the attack doubled in size, though only helped to keep the beams equally clashing in the middle. Jin and Celestia grunted frustratedly in unison.

"This isn't working! We're just leveling it out! We need more power!" He called. Nightmare Moon snarled furiously, pouring even more power into the beam as her power increased.

"THIS SHALL MARK YOUR DOOM, YOU FOOLS! NOW, BE DESTROYED!" She howled, adding even more power to her attack. It slowly lurched towards them, and it seemed that it the end was nigh for the two, even with the Elements of Harmony. The beam grew dangerously close, and both Jin and Celestia prepared for the worst.

"GETTER BEAM!"

Though their focus was still on the struggle, they could easily make out the form of Gou Tetsu's Black Getter Robo. He too had added the power of the Getter Beam to the Elemental Attack, halting and quickly forcing back Nightmare Moon's.

"No one, and I mean NO ONE, runs me through with my own Katana!" His growl was muffled by the assault, though still audible by the wary Princess of the Night. The Dark Alicorn's eyes widened in fear, for she knew there was no avoiding what was to come. With a protestant howl of rage, the last thing she saw before the beam encased her was the silhouette of the trio. The Elemental blast struck her with such force, that her now prone form was knocked all the way to the moon far in the distance. The rainbow energy swirled and tendrilled around her, forcing her deep within the sphere of white rock. As the beam dispelled, the form of her head was carved into the moon, and a faint whinnie echoed hauntingly across the land of Equestria.

They had done it.

It was finally over.

The trio hovered in the air for a moment, the reality of what had just happened almost to joyful to be real. The brief silence was broken by a triumphant whoop from Jin, raising his Getter's fist high into the air.

"WE DID IT! We finally put that bastard to rest! I hope she likes ruling her "kingdom" from a rock in the sky! Ye-heah!!" His victory cries caused Celestia's posture to slacken with grief, as a single tear ran down her smooth snout. Gou turned and calmly spoke to his brother.

"Jin. . .That was this mare's sister." That single set of morose words dug deep into the Diamond Dog's gut, and he now understood just what had taken place. He immediately turned his attention to the Princess, apologizing profusely. She waved a hand about in the air, and replied to him.

"Please Jin, do not apologize. Not only did you have no idea, but my sister stooped low enough to. . ." She choked on her next words, her sorrow for Jin being more apparent for that of her now imprisoned sister.

"She had. . .tried to. . .have her way with you, after beating you into that near death state. She deserved all of what she recieved. Though I hope that. . .maybe, one day, she will come to her senses and stop this nonsense. If imprisonment is what it must take, then my sister must sit and stew over her brash actions. Even if it takes One Thousand Years. . ." The posture of the Getter also dropped, mirroring that of the grieving Alicorn. The Princess regained her regal pose, and turned back

to the twin Getter Robos.

"Though it pains me so to lose my sister, I have gained two new allies. . .and friends, in her place. I thank you, on behalf of my people, for showing the utmost courage and will to fight in this trying situation, and aiding me in the act of bringing my sister's selfish ambitions to a halt. You both, you Tetsu Twins, and your fighting machines, The Getter Robos, will receive the highest of honors. I, Princess Celestia, not only gift you with this, but in succession. . ." She stopped for a moment, and extended both arms out the the twins. She bore an expression of true affection, believing that together, the Tetsu Brothers would be able to fill the hole in her heart that Luna had left behind.

"I will offer unto you the highest honor of all. . .my friendship. Will you, the Tetsu Twins, accept it?"

The Tetsu Twins were truly touched, not only after defeating Nightmare Moon, but to have the now singular ruler of this new world give them the chance to make a new life for themselves, and gain the trust of a truly powerful being. The twins both exchanged a look of pure happiness. This was one thing that they had never felt in a very long time, since the short era of when they were but young kits. The memories of birthdays past, and other seasons gone along side their families they once had, flooded into thier minds like a tidal wave of pure joy. The reality of where they were struck them like a Getter Beam. This was a world where the Reptilian Empire was void- a place where Invaders could not reach out to harm them, and the ominous Shin Getter Dragon could not appear. Where the name "Getter G" bore no significance, and it's power was unknown to these folk. Where war, famine, disease, and sadness were terms that remained faint in the minds of the denizens of this realm. Gou, experiencing briefly the ignorance of these ponies, realized that they had never experienced what they had endured,which were the long, trying wars and many deaths of colleagues, friends, and family. They were but a rare occurrence in this beautiful world, where all lived in the harmony of one another. They were looking forward to living here, and leaving their comparably barbaric world behind.

However, fate again would act in such a way as to prevent them from living there, in that age of simplicity, to be the most powerful warriors among pony kind. What would happen next would cause them to feign from responding to the Godly Alicorn's offer.

From the moon raising high above them in the heavens, a tiny spark emanated. The trio gazed upon it with squinted eyes, their minds filling with the one possibility that Nightmare Moon had somehow escaped her brief imprisonment. To throw their similar theories aside, something much different, though not at all a negative out come, rocketed back from the moon. The multicolored energy tendril that had banished the vile foe that was Nightmare Moon careened back, even faster than light's speed it's self. It seemed to have targeted the pearl white Alicorn, who only had but a millionth of a second to respond, obviously to no avail. Only an inch from the Princess's form, it violently ripped into two separate beams, and instantly enveloped the Getter Robo duo. In a fearful yelp, the Tetsu Twins could not even react in time. The beam struck them both, and without another word, rid the world of their forms before vanishing completely. Princess Celestia could only gaze with great confusion and sorrow, as the spaces that had previously held the Getter Robos was now void of any shape, save the wind that blew gently by.

***"Jin. . . .Gou. . . . must the Elements take you from me as well?"

"Am I doomed to solitude for the many years to come?"***
