My Little Dragon Z

Shining's group were still at Fluttershy's cottage with said pegasi resting on the couch.

"Man, this never happened in training." Shining hissed still feeling the effects of Fluttershy's low blow.

"Just walk it off. I didn't hear any pop." remarked Rainbow with a casual wave of her hand.

"How would you know? Less you're more manish than you let on." grinned AJ.

Rainbow gritted her teeth and stomped over before Twilight intervened.

"Stop it! We need to focus and find the elements!" she shouted looking at both mares.

"She's right. If not, we're all doomed." spoke Scootaloo.

"Well where do we even look! This tree is nothing but a dead end." growled Rainbow.

"I just don't get it. The radar said this should lead be the place." spoke Twilight who groaned.

"Does it say where we go to next?" asked AJ.

Twilight pulled out the radar and pressed the button and saw four signs in the tree. "It says there are four right here, but has anyone see anything odd?"

"Nope." AJ shook her head.

"Ah ah." Scootaloo shrugged.

"Maybe it's busted." Rainbow grabbed it and tried shaking it.

"Don't!" Twilight snatched it back. "Without this we won't be able to find any of them!"

That's when they heard the radar beeping. Twilight looked down and gasped.

"What is it?" asked Scootaloo.

"It's picking up two more signatures. They're both in the same area a couple miles away from here."

"Wait, if that thing is picking up the elements here, shouldn't we try searching harder?" spoke Rainbow.

"Maybe, but unless we know what they look like, we might be grasping at straws. Maybe a few of us should head here and see what they can find."

"Count me in." spoke Rainbow. "I need to stretch my wings."

"Can I come?" asked Scootaloo.

"Sure."

"I guess the rest of us stay here?" asked AJ.

"Yes." nodded Twilight who looked at the radar. "Fly northwest from here for about 10 miles."

"Gotcha." both pegasi walked out before flaring their auras and taking to the sky.

"Think they'll find 'em?" asked AJ.

"I hope, and I really hope no one saw the guard send a distress blast."

"No problem. If anyone comes by, I'll deal with them." grinned AJ.

(With Spike)

Said dragon flew through the air and crashed into a ruined and burning home.

"Damn. She's tough." he groaned pushing the rubble off and cracked his neck.

"Thank you." came her voice directly above him. He jumped back and saw she was floating upside with her arms crossed. "Usually the others would snap from a punch like that."

"Well I'm not them." he growled with his arms up.

"So true. In fact, I might be finding a new playmate." she gave a sick grin before turning herself right side up.

Spike flared his aura up just as the mare shot herself at him with a grin. He crossed his arms and blocked her punch before unfolding them and grabbing her arm before swinging her down and slamming her against the ground.

He brought his left hand up and swung it down towards her face, but she grabbed it with her other hand even while on her back.

"Boring." she grinned while keeping hold of his arm as she calmly stood back up.

Spike couldn't pull his arm from the tight grip she had on his arm and his widened as her leg literally stretched out.

"Bye bye." the foot came back at amazing speeds before it slammed into Spike, who didn't get sent flying since she still didn't let go, causing him to gasp out from the impact and struggle to stay standing as she pulled him closer before slamming her knee against his gut, making him gasp for air as she finally let go, watching him fall on his knees while struggling to breath.

She lost her smile and held a palm out as a ball of ki started forming and slowly got bigger.

"We have to stop her!" cried Rarity who moved to go over before Chrysalis put a hand on her shoulder.

"No Rarity, we'll only get in the way."

"B-but Milady..."

"This is his fight, so no buts."

And so, a reluctant Rarity had to see how her new friend fight against a crazy mass murderer.

Spike ducked while the girl tried for a left punch before he swung and landed a solid blow to her gut. That caused the pink girl to squeal from both pain...and pleasure?

"Ahhh!" she went flying back before righting herself and smirked at him. Something about that smirk, however, made Spike shiver ominously. "Not bad, but take this!" she opened her mouth before a pink ki blast shot out.

"WOAH!" Cried out Spike as he sidestepped the blast, "Almost got me..."

"Peek a boo!" she called behind him before slamming her knee into his back.

"AAAAGH!" He groaned out in pain before back-flipping in the right position and avoided her following barrage of punches! 'Damn it! It's like she's not feeling anything from my attacks!' Spike thought before punching her in the face, sending her flying as she laughed despite the pain. 'Nevermind, she DOES feel pain...but she ENJOYS IT?!'

"Hahaha! This is fun!" she laughed before crashing into a building. "A LOT!"

"How is this FUN?!" He gaped in disbelief. "You keep laughing and are enjoying all this. Aren't you in the least bit angry?"

"Nope~!" She swiftly answered amused. She held up two pink orbs and chucked them at the dragon.

Spike quickly jumped over them as he shot his right arm for a forward strike at his opponent.

She ducked and slammed her knee into his gut.

Spike flinched but then smirked as it was revealed that he caught his opponent's leg with his arms before he began to spin around in circles while holding her leg!

"What the-hey! Let go!" she called out, surprised at the move.

"Nope!" He cried out as he continued to spin them both until the pink pony's face began to get green.

"Hmm, seems she can get sick." smirked Chrysalis. "Let's hope she doesn't vomit towards us."

"I-I think...I-I'm gonna...URK!" Mumbled the now nauseous girl before-

*BLEEERGH!*

Spike let go as the flying girl and her puke trailed off into the nearby forest.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEW!" Cried out all girls in disgust as the guys winced in pity.

"Well, I enjoyed that!" laughed Chrysalis.

"I did not." Scowled Rarity in disgust.

Spike panted and wiped his brow. 'Thank god, I thought she'd never go down."

"Eh...Spike?" Called out Sweetie suddenly, making him look at the now nervous girl as she pointed to where his opponent was, "I-I think it's far from over."

"Wait, what?" he blinked turning to the forest. There he saw how, slowly but surely, his opponent was rising as her formerly purple-pink aura change to a purple-red color and increased in size! "Oh....I see your point."

"I'd say that it was a pleasure knowing the brat." Deadpanned one of the Diamond Dogs.

"Quiet you, he's still breathing." spoke Chrysalis in a firm tone.

"I hope he can win." Sweetie Belle said worried.

The mare cracked her neck while glaring at Spike who tried to take his fighting stance.

'I hope the others are having better luck than I am right now...' He thought nervously.

(With the others)

"Damn E-rank Luck of mine." Mumbled an annoyed Rainbow as she, AJ and Scootaloo were travelling to the place where the remaining 2 elements were located.

"What was that?" asked Applejack.

"How long until we get to the elements?" She quickly asked back.

"Just a few more minutes."

Scootaloo meanwhile could only sigh as she saw her sister in all but blood discuss with the android. 'I hope I can help a lot on this mission.'

With that thought, the young pegasus continued her journey alongside her idol and their new ally.

"Alright, the next gem should be coming." spoke Rainbow. "Try not to lag behind." she smirked at AJ.

"I should say the same to you." Chuckled back the earth android.

Soon they started descending down the ground. Looking around, they could see the ruins of the city where the remaining elements were supposed to be in.

"That's weird." remarked Applejack.

"Who or what could have done such thing?" Mumbled horrified the youngest of the trio.

"This place isn't that old. Wonder what caused this." remarked Rainbow. Soon after she said that, a giant *BOOOOOOOOOM!* was heard as they turned their heads to see a mushroom cloud near their location!

"Looks like we got ourselves company." frowned AJ.

"And very strong too." Mumbled Rainbow as she activated her scooter...only for it to suddenly deactivate as cracks formed in it from the sudden power! "Oh Shit!"

Seeing the scouter break made Scootaloo gulp before they saw an explosion. "W-What do you think it's causing the explosion?" Asked the nervous young pegasus.

"A fight." smirked Rainbow tossing her scouter to the side.

"Between who?" Asked AJ curious and excited.

"Who cares?" Rainbow powered up before flying towards the area.

"I do if we want to survive." Deadpanned AJ before following her reckless ally.

Scootaloo gulped before shaking her head and followed.

(With Spike and Pinkamena)

Spike went skidding against the ground while making a trail and groaned in pain. 'Ah crap baskets!' He cursed mentally while taking off his ruined jacket, showing his sleeveless black t-shirt that showed off his muscled stomach. "This sucks, I just got healed up too." With that, he glanced weakly at the now pissed off and laughing pink opponent...from whom he never got her name now that he thought about it. "Hey, before we keep going, what's your name anyway?"

"...Pinkamena." She answered simply, yet Spike shivered at the darkness in her voice. "And you?"

"Spike."

"Good, now I'll know what to put on your tombstone."

'Celestia Damnit!' Cursed the poor dragon as he was forced to evade multiple energy bolts shooting from Pinkamena's arms!

Pinkamena laughed before holding a bigger ki orb with two hands and hurled it at him.

"OH HELL NOES!" He cried out back as he created his own orb with both hands and threw it

Both of them clashed in the middle before Pinkamena shot a stream of energy at hers, causing both orbs to get pushed towards him and fast.

"TAKE THIS! DRAGON WAVE REVERSAL!" he called firing a large wave that was green against the orbs.

"Oh Merde!" Cursed Pinkamena as she dodged to the side, only to see the wave following her! "W-WHAT THE-?!"

Spike smirked as the wave caused a large explosion. "HA! TAKE THAT!" He gloated. That's when the three girls flew down near him. "AJ?! RAINBOW?! SCOOTALOO?!" Spike screamed in shock and surprise.

"So you're the fella blowin' holes up around here." joked Applejack.

"Don't blame me, blame her!" He said pointing out to where Pinkamena was shot.

They turned and looked up and saw Pinkamena with a massive hole in her body with her left arm gone.

"M-My arm...MY ARM!" Screamed the mad pony in apparent pain and rage. "YOU BASTARD! THIS HURTS LIKE TARTARUS!"

Spike couldn't help the chuckled he had despite the exhaustion he was in right now. "Heh...serves ya' right!"

"Y-You...YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY?!" She screamed back. "BECAUSE IT'S NOT AS FUNNY!" she stopped and smirked. "As your face." before her hole and arm regenerated in the blink of an eye.

Needless to say, calling the look on everyone's faces as 'Oh crap!' would have been a massive understatement.

"Ah, much better." she grinned rotating her arm to get any cracks out.

"B-But how?!" Gaped in disbelief Rainbow Dash.

"That shoulda killed her." spoke Applejack with wide eyes.

"Because Fuck you! That's why!" Insulted back Pinkamena with a smirk. "As long as I have energy, I'll keep coming back again and again!"

"Damn it." Scowled Spike.

"Then we'll blow her up till she can't reform!" spoke Rainbow. "I've been itching to see how much stronger I've gotten."

"Agreed, partner." Said AJ preparing herself to fight.

"I'm in too." spoke Scootaloo.

"Thanks girls." Spike said with a grin as he got up.

That's when Pinkamena landed and laughed. "HA HA HA HA! You're fun!" She suddenly declared to the purple dragon.

"Um....thanks?"

"Still it's not gonna stop me from making you suffer your punishment~!" she sang before pulling her fists back and shot them into the ground.

"Oh shi-!" he cried before her hands popped out and grabbed his ankles before pulling him under the ground. "DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN IIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!" He cursed out-loud as he was dragged below.

"Let go of him!" called Applejack flying at Pinkamena and slammed her fist against her face. That caused Pinkamena's head to stretch out of her body alongside her neck like she was made of gum while still holding Spike! "What in tarnation?!"

"Peek-a-boo~!" Sang Pinkamena upon her head returning to normal before headbutting AJ and smashing the now rising Spike into her!

Both went flying back while Rainbow and Scootaloo flew up and started firing energy blasts at Pinkamena from both sides. The pink pony merely shifted her body in many ways while casually dodging the blasts, as if to mock them even more!
"Hold still!"

"Nope~!" she sang before chucking a ki blast at Rainbow. Said blast was hit by another one from Scootaloo, which caused both attacks to explode and allow Rainbow to fall back.

"This is pissing me off." Shouted a pissed off Rainbow as her power began increasing, obviously preparing herself for a final attack in order to reduce her opponent to rubble! "I'll blow you off the face of this planet!"

"WAIT RAINBOW DASH! YOU COULD DESTROY THE PLANET IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL!" Cried out a terrified Scootaloo while checking over Spike and AJ.

"I'll make sure she can't put herself back after this!"

"Woah! Calm down, Rainbow! Is your pride truly that much to the point of blowing up the world?!" Gaped Spike in disbelief.

"I don't think she's listening." spoke Applejack.

"Celestia Damn It!" Cursed out the dragon.

(With Chrysalis' Group)

"Mistress we need to help them!" spoke Rarity.

"And why should we?" Asked a now curious Chrysalis as she saw the new arrivals.

"Because that girl is too much for them and they could die!" Cried out the now worried unicorn lady.

"Well this is a good way to see just how they work together and how strong they are together." Chrysalis answered back.

Rarity frowned and clenched her hands while watching the battle.

"Don't worry big sister! Spike and the others will win!" Assured Sweetie Belle, confident in her new friend! 'I hope so at least.'

(With Spike and CO)

"This...sucks." groaned Rainbow.

"Tell me 'bout it." Deadpanned AJ.

Pinkamena laughed while all four of them were panting.

"Just how strong is this crazy chick?!" Gasped Spike.

"I don't know, but like Rainbow Dash said, if we can damage her enough, maybe she won't reform." spoke Scootaloo.

"Like what? Reduce her into smoke? Ashes?" Spike asked sarcastically.

"Sounds perfect to me." spoke Rainbow.

"What makes you think that she will just stay there and take it?" AJ pointed out.

"She's practically telling us to go ahead and try it."

With that said by Rainbow, the mentioned put her hands together and began to charge a purple sphere on her hands.

"Hahaha! What's that?" laughed the pink mare.

"Your death!" Screamed Rainbow as Scootaloo followed with her own version of Rainbow's newest attack.

Spike and Applejack stood next to each other and started gathering energy into their hands.

"Oh my~! What's this~?"

They held their hands out and fired the blasts together. The four blasts went at Pinkamena who tried stretching away, but found her body wouldn't respond.

"Oh...crap baskets!" She cursed before-

*BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!*

She was blown to bits with her head and upper half flying back.

"HA! TAKE THAT!" Laughed Rainbow tiredly.

"W-What? I can't be out of power already." spoke Pinkamena in shock.

'Out of power?' Thought AJ as Rainbow continued to laugh while Scootaloo and Spike cheered tiredly.

Pinkamena glared at Rainbow and tried getting her body to reform. Yet her regeneration was way too slow when compared to her usual self.

"Nope, not today." spoke Applejack walking over with her hand charging up a blast. "We'll blow you away before you patch yourself up."

"N-NO! I REFUSE TO BE KILLED! NOT AFTER ALL I WENT THROUGH!" Screamed back the now scared pink mare.

"Sorry, mercy ain't my thing right now." AJ dryly stated.

The others watched while Spike noticed the clear fear in Pinkamena's eyes. Then he remembered that female pony's words about "being free"... "Wait AJ!"

Spike's shout got her attention alongside everyone else.

"Don't do it."

"Why shouldn't I?"

"Because, while I'm not sure entirely, but I think she should stay alive."

"And why should she?!" Rainbow shouted back angrily. "No offense Spike, but did you forget that the pink hair blob WAS TRYING TO KILL US?!"

"I know that! But look in her eyes!"

"What should I look...at?" she turned and stared into Pinkamena's frightened eyes. "Damn it...fine."

"But Rainbow-" spoke Scootaloo.

"No buts, scoots!"

"Then what do we do with her?" asked Applejack.

Before anyone could answer her, Pinkamena finished regenerating and touched the ground...only to faint head first into the earth from exhaustion!

"Now should we blow her up?"

"No AJ...just don't..."

Applejack sighed and lowered her arm to her side.

"Nice job!" Called out Chrysalis' voice as she and her group alongside a new cloaked figure appeared.

"What the-who are you?" frowned Rainbow with cautiousness.

"I'm Chrysalis, and these guys are my group that helped take care of your good friend Spike when he was unconscious."

"Yeah, they're real nice." spoke up Spike.

"Is that so?" Asked Rainbow curious. "And just how WELL do you know them?"

"Enough." Was all that the Changeling Queen said. "The fact is, all of you need rest, and if we don't help you, you're free to do it yourself, but then you'd leave yourselves open to ambush from who knows what. Your choice."

"She got a point." Admitted AJ. "All that fighting might have alerted the princesses, and I'm in no shape to take them on, at least not yet."

"That's true..." Frowned Spike. "Still how are the others?"

"We'll live." groaned Scootaloo.

"I meant Sensei and the other girls."

"Oh! Well last time we saw them they were doing just fine." Answered Scootaloo, being helped by Sweetie Belle.

"Then let's go and find them before someone else finds them." Said the Dragon.

The large group made their way back into the forest for cover.

(With Twilight and CO)

"This is crazy, now the radar says the element is gone." Twilight yelled in disbelief.

"Well maybe that's a sign the girls found it." Shining Armor said.

"But we haven't gotten our hands on one and if we can't find them all then we're doomed!" Cried out the panicked unicorn. "I mean, what if they were captured? What if they got lost? Or trapped in a cavern? Or even died?!"

The more she talked, the more her appearance changed and looked more unhinged.

"Easy there Twily, I'm sure we'll see them soon and they can tell us what happened." Her BFBBF quickly told her, hoping to avoid another Zero episode.

She took several deep breaths before fixing her hair. "Y-yeah, you're right."

"M-M-Maybe we should stay here." spoke Fluttershy.

"Still, we need to make sure they're safe!" Twilight said.

"I agree. We'll head out and take it easy just in case we run into trouble." spoke Shining Armor.

"A-Alright." Said the resigned pegasus.

(With the Princesses)

Both hovered over the conquered city while waiting for the squad of soldiers they sent out to come back and report.

"So how is the search coming along?" Asked an eager Nightmare Moon.

"So far those fools haven't returned." frowned Solar Flare.

"Damn it, you can't find good help these days." Mumbled out the disappointed princess. "At this point one of us will have to go and check."

"A damn shame indeed..." Then a torch appeared on Solar Flare's head, making her grin. "That's not a bad idea."

"Eh?"

"If one of us went we could get it done much faster."

"Bah, I say we send the more elite members to fix the problem."

"Well, about that." That made the now curious Moon Princess look at her sister. "I have an idea."

"What is it?"

With a grin, Solar Flare told her sister her plan and how effective it could be.

"Hmm, even better. Those two will fix the problem without breaking a sweat." Said the now happy mare.

Both snapped their fingers before two figures flew up to their sides almost instantly.

"Yes, my princess?" Asked both figures, their voices revealing them to be females as well.

"Go out into the Everfree Forest and find out if there's anyone trying to undermine our authority."

"As you wish!" they saluted before flying off.

"Fufufu, how amusing that they fake being so loyal, no~?" Mock asked Nightmare amused.

"Don't worry, we'll let them play for now, and then crush them like the bugs they are." Reassured the sun princess.

"Fair point, and when it comes, I call first fight." laughed Nightmare Moon.

"As you wish then."
