Previous Chapter

    In a fruit bat sanctuary in the Apple farm of Ponyville, A big gray and bulky metal suit with blue test tube tattooed on the chest plate and blue pictures of its attacks and gadgets on its arms and back. It is using on its foldable radar disk coming out its back. The man is in the suit is smiling through the visor. He has a team of 4 bulky stone goblins guarding him.

The bats and goblins around the suit are feeling dizzy.

The man in the suit says as he looks at the dizzy bats, “The Nerve Numb-er is working perfectly.”

One of the goblin bodyguards says, “It is workin’ too much.”

A goblin with a radio pack on his back gets a message emailed to him. He pulls out a handheld monitor from his pack and struggles to reads it.

The radio goblin yells to the man in the suit, “Shut off that Zappa, doc!”

The man in the suit turns off the radar disk and it goes back in the suit. The goblins and bats are slowly recovering.

The radio struggles to read but before he understands the message, a goblin in tribal clothes with light armor vest, boots, ammo pack and a poorly painted revolver.

The goblin says, “For those don’t who, I am Captain Yellow Blood, one of the fastest stone goblins who ever lived and need you runts, to go and fight a chimera…” He puts his hand on his head. “Why does my head hurt?!”

The man in the suit says, “I’m sorry it was from one of my toys. I am Dr. Metalton and this is my Tesla armor.”

“We need you and that metal skin and beat up an eastern Chimera. It has one of our shiny boys and another group of goblins will get him out.”

One of the other goblins asks “What do we do?”

The Captain says, “That easy…”

Dr. Metalton interrupts, “Since I am fighting the chimera I want to bring it back alive. It will help a lot in our genetics research.”

The Captain responds, “Normally, I would just go with my plan but since you have zappy powers. I let you fight him alone but if you’re losing badly we’ll come in and kill it. Let’s go now.”

The radio goblin says, “Alright boys, lets to the teleporter.”

The Captain says, “No, where are going on foot it is a secret mission.”

Dr. Metalton is rewiring one arm at a time.

He says, “That will give me enough time to make my attacks go from kill to stun.”

Captain Yellow Blood leads the sneaky march to Fluttershy’s cottage.

When the squad gets to the cottage, the squad hides in the garden. They notice that the Chimera is coming to the front. The squad huddles together to retell the plan.

The Captain says quietly, “You with the skull helmet follow me, Shiny boy you fight the monster. The rest of you lot to make sure no one else mess up the shiny boy’s fight.”

The rest of the goblins agree with the plan.

Doctor Melton whispers, “I’m not a… I’ll go first.”

Dr. Metalton charges toward the Chimera with a fully charged stun fist. The Chimera was ready to dodge the attack. The attack leaves a big dent with ashes marks on the cottage. Both fight and dodge without any time to speak.

The Captain and his goblin sneak to the back door while the rest of the squad sits back and watch the fighting while eating their emergency rations and apples that they picked from the apple orchard.

The fighting grabs the attention of the animals inside and a metal Leon that is lying down on a bed using the distraction to sneak out.

The metal Leon sneaks out to the back door to bump into Captain Yellow Blood and his skull trooper.

The Metal Leon says, “Thanks for the distraction. I have a teleporter in a nearby crate, I just have to turn it on and we can get home.”

The Captain smiles and says, “That was easier than I planned. Get that tele ready.”

The metal Leon gets the teleporter ready. It seemed like an easy win for the stone goblins but the team of forest goblins that were supposed rescue the metal trooper arrive. The leader of the forest goblin group is upset.

The leader of the forest goblin team, “I though the Emperor ordered all stone goblins out of this area so that don’t mess us up.”

“I am the chosen stone goblin bodyguard to the Emperor.”

“I am the chosen forest goblin bodyguard to the Emperor.”

The skull goblin scream to the Metal Leon, “Turn it on faster!”

The Forest and Stone Goblins stare at each other intensely as the teleporter sets up.

The Skull goblin says to his captain, “Can we fight later, maybe in the arena?”

Yellow Blood says, “That sounds like a perfect idea so I can show off the power of the Stone goblins in front of the Emperor himself.”

The forest goblin captain says, “We will be the winners in that fight.”

As the teleporter finishes, the chimera notices the fake Leon with the goblins. They were distracted long enough for Dr. Metalton to hit them with a charged up fist attack. The attack stuns the Chimera’s body and the Melton picks up the body and waits for his turn. He smiles with the thoughts of possible research from the monster the he caught.

Everyone gets in line for teleporter expect for Melton reporting his new “finding” with the help of the radio goblin and a few other goblins threatening the local witnesses to keep what a secret or else. Each one of them on top of the teleporter glows as it sends them away.

When the teleporter sends most of the troops including the Chimera, a few goblins were left behind to gather pieces of the soon to be detonated teleporter and hides in the woods to their hidden base.
