Harmonized Pony Rangers

Chapter 1

The moon of Equestria has been a very quite place ever since Nightmare Moon was defeated, with nothing going on and nothing around but miles upon miles of rock and dust.

But, as if the moon itself was suddenly getting relentlessly bored and started wishing for something to happen, something happened just as suddenly.

a strange portal opened on the moon, and certain malevolent individuals flew out of it and landed on the moon's surface.

And who else would be more fitting to suddenly appear on the moon than Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa?

One moment of those two landing face-down on moon dust later, they quickly got back up and started brushing the moon dust off themselves.

"Nice going chrome-head!" Rita bickered sarcastically, "try to kick my daddy out somewhere only for your spell to backfire on us!"

Lord Zedd scoffed, "Come on! you can't tell me you weren't getting sick of that smug jerk too, think of what I did as an attempt at pest control."

"Whatever," Rita said, "let's just get back quickly and hope my father has finished laughing at us by now."

"Right," Zedd agreed, and he was about to use his staff to open a portal back to the M51 Galaxy when he suddenly noticed a planet not far away from the moon they were standing on.

"Wait," Zedd said pointing at the planet he was looking at, "Rita, notice something odd about that planet over here?"

"Yeah," Rita said, squinting her eyes as she looked at the planet as well, and she looked disgusted, "look at all those pastel colors, it looks like it's part of some brat's picture book."

Lord Zedd used his 'visor zoom' to get a closer look at the planet's surface, then said in a seemingly surprised tone "And take a look at the creatures inhabiting this planet, and tell me you're seeing what I'm seeing."

Rita quickly waved her magic staff, causing her telescope to appear out of thin air (or thin vacuum?), she then started looking through it.

"What in the world...?" Rita muttered, obviously stunned by what she just saw.

"This entire planet is filled to the brim with sentient pastel colored ponies!" Lord Zedd exclaimed, " this world really does look like something from a children's book, I didn't even know my spell would bring us here. And you notice something else?"

"Yeah? what's that?" Rita asked.

"So far, I'm seeing No absurdly conspicuous command centers, no giant dormant Zords laying around, not even one measly teenage human teaching or studying martial arts, meaning..."

"No Power Rangers!" both Zedd and Rita said in unison, both very excited with what they discovered.

"I can hardly remember the last time I conquered a planet unopposed!" Lord Zedd said excitedly, "This will be a perfect chance to get back in business!"

"Ha! took the words right outta my mouth, Zeddy!" Rita exclaimed in agreement, "So what are we waiting for?"

Meanwhile, in the outskirts of Ponyville.

It's been only a short while since Twilight was coronated as a Princess, though fortunately for her, since she's still able to live in Ponyville with her friends, her status as princess actually changed surprisingly little about her daily life.

Which is one of many reasons she was content with having a peaceful picnic with her friends.

Indeed, Rainbow Dash was hovering just afew feet above her friends, thinking about a new flying technique she wants to create, Rarity was having a lovely chit-chat with Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie was scarfing down some of the picnic cake, and Applejack was calming sitting next to Twilight while drinking a mug of apple cider.

As for Spike, he was cuddled up next to Twilight, asleep, while using Twilight's right wing as a blanket.

Twilight wouldn't trade moments like these for nothing.

BUT THEN...

the ground suddenly started shaking, startling the Mane 6 while also waking up Spike. But before any of them could react, the shaking stopped, followed immediately afterward by an explosion of smoke coming from Ponyville.

"What the hay was that?" Applejack asked.

"I don't know, Applejack," Twilight answered, "But we better investigate, come on, everypony!"

The rest of the Mane 6 and Spike nodded in agreement and headed straight for Ponyville.

Just seconds later, in Ponyville proper.

Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa suddenly appeared in the middle of town, they immediately caught the attention of several nearby ponies, who were understandably shocked and wierded out by the sight of the villainous couple.

"Greetings!" Zedd said, "I am Lord Zedd, the true emperor of evil! and this is my wicked wife, Rita Repulsa. And we'll gonna be your new rulers for eternity!"

Zedd fired a magic bolt from his staff at a random spot, which frightened the ponies and caused them to scatter in panic, Zedd and Rita laughed in an evil yet whole-hearted way.

"Hey! what the hay to ya think you're doin'?" said Applejack from somewhere.

Zedd and Rita turned to see the Mane 6 facing them.

"My, my, seems the peasants have already started a revolt!" Rita said, " that's good, I was starting to worry this would get too easy!"

Twilight turned to Spike and whispered, "Spike, get the Elements of Harmony from the library, we'll keep them distracted."

Spike quietly saluted and run off, fortunately Zedd and Rita didn't seem to even notice him.

"You two bipeds got some nerve comin' to our town, terrorizing our neighbors, and suddenly declaring yourselves in charge!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"And doing so in such horrendous costumes!" Rarity criticized, her attention was mainly toward Rita, "Look at yourself, you misguided mare, I've known homeless with better sense of apparel than that, and that rats nest of a mane! I wouldn't wish such an absurd mane-style on my worst enemy!"

Zedd pointed at Rita and laughed, but Rita simply glared briefly at her husband with an annoyed expression.

"And you! wearing such realistic-looking exposed muscle with such unsettling pieces of metal all over," Rarity said as she turned to Zedd "you must have came straight out of a horror movie!"

"Ha! you obviously don't know me well enough to think that remark would insult me!" Zedd said as he flexed the muscles of his left arm while holding his staff with his right hand, "Besides, these muscles you're looking at are all real!"

The Mane 6 were shocked to hear this, with Rarity in particular looking as though she was almost going to throw up.

"Disturbed?" Lord Zedd asked, "Good! I've got a reputation to-" Rita elbowed him, "Ow! oh, I mean, we've got a reputation to maintain. Now if you're done trying to throw weak insults at us, we have a planet to conquer!"

"Ha! In your dreams!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, "you're aren't gonna conquer anything with us around."

"Ooooh! the little pegasus thinks she can stop us? how adorable!" Rita mocked.

"Let's see how adorable you find this!" Rainbow Dash declared as she charged straight at Zedd and Rita.

"Rainbow! wait!" Twilight called out.

But the brash pegasus didn't listen, but when she seemed close to head-butting Rita, Rita suddenly disappeared before Rainbow could hit her. Rita reappeared just a few feet away from Rainbow Dash and fired a magic beam from her staff, but instead of hitting Rainbow Dash, the beam seemed to be telekinetically holding her in place. Rita then swung her staff, causing her to telekinetically slam Rainbow Dash into a nearby building and land into the ground.

"Rainbow!" Twilight called out as she and the rest of her friends rushed to the cyan pegasus' aid.

They ran to see fortunately that Rainbow Dash was, though somewhat disoriented from the attack, was otherwise alright.

Twilight glared at Zedd and Rita, seriously ticked at what the nefarious couple were doing.

"You ponies seriously want to challenge our power?" Zedd asked in an amused tone, "fine then, what say we humor you?"

Lord Zedd pointed his staff at the Mane 6 as it started glowing, "And just to make this interesting, I'll make them in your shape!"

Lord Zedd then casted a spell from his staff that summoned a small group of Pony Putty Patrollers, those were white and grey pony-like creatures with red eyes, as well as the letter 'Z' on their flanks as if they had the aforementioned letter as their Cutie Marks.

"Get them, Putties!" Zedd commanded, "Show those fools what happens to those that dare to stand in our way!"

The Pony Putties jumped and performed forward flips before charging at the Mane 6, making strange garbled noises as they approached.

Rainbow Dash quickly recovered from her disorientation as she noticed the Pony Putties approaching, "What the heck are those things?"

"I don't know Rainbow Dash, but- yikes!" Twilight was cut off when she had to quickly dodge a Pony Putty that jumped and tried to land an airborne kick at her, "Clearly they mean business!"

"You got some nerve trying to hit Twilight, you punk!" Rainbow Dash called out the Putty Pony, she flew straight at it and tackled it, causing both of them to roll around the road, pummeling at each other relentlessly until the Pony Putty kicked Rainbow Dash off of it, causing RD to land on her haunches hard on the road.

"Ow..." RD groaned quietly, she looked at the Putty she was fighting at noticed that it didn't seem to be hurt from her attacks, "You gotta be kidding, anypony else got hit like that by me, they'd be lucky to have a single leg left unbroken!"

As another Pony Putty tried to attack Twilight, she tried firing magic bolts from her horn at it, which caused the Putty Pony to be knocked back several feet and to land on its back, but it quickly went back on its hooves and charged at Twilight again, almost as if it was never hurt.

Zedd and Rita laughed at the Mane 6's predicament, "Having trouble with our Putty Ponies?" Lord Zedd asked, "Ha! you think you can stop us when you can't even stop our mere foot soldiers? pathetic!"

Indeed, the Mane 6 found themselves struggling to fight off the seemingly formidable Putty Ponies, Twilight was trying fruitlessly to hit them with her magic, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Rarity tried engaging them in hoof-to-hoof combat to no avail, and Fluttershy...

She crouched down, looking extremely frightened at the sight of the several Putty Ponies that were circling around her.

One of the Putty Ponies tried to kick her with its hind-legs, Fluttershy flinched and quickly jumped out of the way, causing the Putty Pony to accidentally hit one of its teammates.. right in the Z Cutie Mark.

This time, the Putty Pony looked as though it was actually hurt, it fell to the ground on its side, went into what looked like some kind of seizure, then blew into pieces that vanished into nothingness.

Twilight saw what happened, and as you surely may have guessed, this gave her an idea.

Twilight turned toward the Putty Pony she was fighting as it jumped forward to lunge at Twilight, who jumped out of the way and fired a magic bolt at the 'Z' on the Putty Pony's flank, which, sure enough, also caused the Putty Pony to explode into pieces.

"Girls! try hitting the Z's on their flanks!" Twilight suggested.

"Got it!" Rainbow Dash responded as she turned her attention to another Putty Pony, who started charging at her and tried to jump her, but Rainbow flash-stepped away from the attack.

"Ha! missed me!" Rainbow Dash taunted.

The Putty Pony tried again, only for the rainbow-maned Pegasus to instantly dodge it again.

"Seriously, I've seen Fluttershy pounce better than you!" Rainbow Dash mocked, "But I think I've had my fun for now."

Rainbow Dash then started running circles around the Putty Pony at incredible speeds. The Putty Pony tried looking around to keep track of Rainbow Dash, only to second extremely dizzy seconds later for its efforts.

Rainbow Dash saw this and immediately seized the opportunity to head-butt at the Putty Pony's 'Z', destroying it.

Applejack, meanwhile, was trying to hit the Z on the Putty Pony she was fighting, but it seemed to be fully aware of what she was planning and kept doing jumps and flips to dodge Applejack's attacks.

"You're a nimble little critter, aren't ya?" Applejack asked rhetorically, "But not nimble enough!"

Applejack pulled out one of her trademark lassos and threw it on the ground bellow the Putty Pony while it was in the middle of a back-flip. And when it landed, Applejack pulled her lasso to where it was now tied to the Putty Pony's right hind-leg. Applejack then pulled harder on the lasso, causing the Putty Pony to flip backward and land hard on its back. Applejack then started swinging the lassoed Putty Pony around like an Olympic throwing hammer.

"Pinkie Pie! think fast!" Applejack called out, somehow able to speak clearly with a rope in her mouth. Applejack then threw the Putty Pony toward Pinkie Pie.

Pinkie Pie turned to the Putty Pony and quickly pulled out her Party Cannon and fired it, which caused the Cannon to launch a barrage of toy balls that bombarded the airborne Putty Pony's 'Z', also destroying it.

Oddly enough, Rarity seemed to be doing surprisingly well against the Putty Pony she was facing, she skillfully managed to block, dodge, and counter most of the mook's attacks with ease, to the point where she managed to successfully jump upward and used both hind-legs to land aerial kicks on the 'Z's of the two remaining Putty Ponies, you can guess what happened to them next.

The Mane 6 cheered over their victory.

"Ah'm kinda amazed we pulled through this," Applejack said, "Ah can't remember the last time Ah had to get physical with somepony."

"I know what you mean," Twilight said, looking as though she just broke a sweat, "I was worried we were gonna get our plots handed to us, good thing Fluttershy managed to help us find the Putty Ponies' weak points."

"I'm just glad it's over," Fluttershy said with some relief.

"Well, I think this was pretty exciting!" Pinkie Pie cheerfully said, "The way Rainbow ran circles around that mook and then, POW! And Rarity, that was some amazing hoof-work you did back there! Seems those self-defense lessons you took really paid off!"

"Well, Pinkie," Rarity said, appreciating the flattery, "A mare absolutely MUST know how to handle a group of ruffians, maybe you could all try taking up self-defense lessons yourselves, I know a stallion right here in Ponyville who would love to show you the basics."

"Yeah, to be fair, Rarity, that does sound like a good idea," Twilight said, "those Putty Ponies weren't easy nuts to crack, and they seemed to have some skill in martial arts themselves, some of us might not be so lucky next time."

"Regardless, we literally kicked their flanks!" Rainbow Dash boasted proudly, then turned to Rita and Zedd, "Ha! what do you have to say to that, Mr. and Mrs. 'We're gonna takeover the world'?"

"Ha!" Rita scoffed, "So you beat afew Putties, big deal! we've got a freak load more tricks up our sleeves than that!"

"Twilight!" Spike called out from somewhere, Twilight turned to her right to see him holding a box containing the Elements of Harmony.

"I got the Elements! catch!" Spike called out as he opened the box and swinged it upwards, causing the Elements to fly into the air.

Twilight quickly grabbed the Elements with her telekinesis and gave her friends their respective Elements before putting her's on herself.

"Bah! you think these little trinkets can stop us?" Rita asked, "Unless they can help you morph, you don't stand a chance!"'

Rainbow Dash grinned, "That's what you think!"

The Elements of Harmony started glowing before creating a rainbow circle that surrounded the Mane 6.

"Ha! put your magic trinkets together and you think can win?" Zedd asked, "We can do something like that too! watch!"

Zedd and Rita crossed their magic staffs together, waiting for the Mane 6 to make their move first.

The Mane 6 used the Elements of Harmony to unleash a magic rainbow beam that was aiming straight at Zedd and Rita, who both used the combined magic from their staffs to unleash a beam of evil magic, causing both magic beams to slam against each other, which surprised the Mane 6 and Spike.

But no pony was more surprised than Twilight, They.. they can fight it back? but this is impossible!

To make matters worst, Zedd and Rita's magic beam was managing to rapidly push back the rainbow beam that the Elements of Harmony created.

Seconds later, Zedd and Rita's beam fully blasted through the rainbow beam, causing the evil beam to hit the Mane 6, causing a large explosion that sent the Mane 6 and Spike flying several feet away until they all landed on their backs, stunned from the attack.

"Ugh, okay," Applejack groaned, trying to recover from the damage she took, "when did we suddenly become pushovers?"

Spike and rest of the Mane 6 got up, still hurt, but recovering from the damage they took.

Twilight, however, while still breathing, looked as though she was in a state of shock.

The Elements of Harmony didn't work! Twilight thought, How can this even be possible? not even Discord could protect himself from the Elements of Harmony. Just what are we dealing with here?

Rita laughed, "Ha! told you that you all don't stand a chance against us!"

"Well, I think we've had our fun with these fools," Zedd said, "I say we put them out of their misery!"

Zedd and Rita both readied their staffs to finish their 7 foes off, but before they could even start casting spells, The Mane 6 and Spike were suddenly encased in a white energy field, which almost immediately disappeared along with our heroes.

Zedd and Rita were both surprised and confused.

"What just happened?" Rita asked, "We didn't even do anything yet!"
