Chapter 2: A new world (rewritten)

The eight brothers, exhausted from the battle, sat down to catch their breaths, having fended off the hoard of wood wolves, "Heaven, its all clear!" Silver called to their little sister, who came out from behind the rock slab.

"Are they all gone?" Heaven asked.

"Yeah, and I doubt there'll be anymore," Raiden said, laying down on the floor. Brian then noticed an alert expression on Stealth's face.

"What's up Stealth?" Brian asked.

"I can sense more life forms. They don't appear to be as hostile as those wood wolves," Stealth replied, looking towards the door.

"How could he notice us?!" a rough sounding voice said.

"This guy must have some sort of sixth sense," another, calmer voice said.

"Uh, if you guys are peaceful, then you should know we mean no harm!" Silver called. The nine sibling looked in awe at what came out from behind the door. Six ponies of unusual coloring, one with a horn, two with wings, one with a horn and wings, and two with neither.

"I don't believe it, unicorns, pegasi, and an alicorn?" Raiden asked. Silver raised his hand, which glowed in a cyan light.

"Ok, if I understand this correctly, their names are Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie. They came from the nearby town of Ponyville to investigate something by request of their leader," Silver said. The six ponies stood in shock.

"How did you know all that?!?" Twilight asked.

"I have psychic powers. They let me read minds, lift stuff, and attack with," Silver replied.

"Interesting," Twilight said.

"And to answer your question, yes, we caused those pillars of fire and lightning. They were actually caused by Brian and Raiden," Silver added, looking at his brothers.

"Let me guess, you read my mind?" Twilight asked dryly. Silver nodded.

"Well, I guess its time for our side of the introductions. My name is Silver Fujiyama. These are my brothers, Raiden, Icezer, Francisco, Brian, Heiru, Akira, and Takashi, but the last two would prefer if you called them Stealth and Echo-Echo, respectively. And lastly, this is our little sister, Heaven Fujiyama," Silver said, introducing himself and his brothers and sister, "By the way, where is that other friend of yours? The one named Discord?" Silver asked.

"I'm right here!" Discord said, appearing out of thin air. Brian and Heiru instinctively moved their hands in front of Heaven.

"It's alright guys. According to Fluttershy, he's a good guy," Silver said to his brothers. Brian and Heiru had skeptical looks on their faces but relaxed their hands.

"Anyway, Celestia wanted us to report back when we found the source of a mysterious power she sensed," Twilight said.

"You kids better come with us back to Ponyville. Right now, we're smack dab in the middle of one of the most dangerous places in Equestria," Applejack said. The seven brothers gave a questioning look to Francisco.

"Francisco, care to explain?" Raiden asked. Francisco froze up, and had an extremely nervous look on his face.

"Uh, well, when I opened the portal, I may have gotten a slight headache, that may have thrown off my aim," Francisco replied sheepishly.

"And you didn't tell us this, because?" Silver asked.

"Well, everything was moving too fast for me to think clearly," Francisco said.

"In any case, we should at least check out the town," Icezer said.

"Good idea. I don't want to be around if any more of those wood wolves show up again," Heiru commented.

"'Wood wolves'?" Twilight asked. She then realized what he was talking about, "Oh, you mean Timberwolves," she said.

"Well, whatever they're called, lets just get out of here," Silver said. With that, they left.

Chapter 3: Ponyville (Rewritten)

It took about 10 minutes of walking to get out of the Everfree Forest, but the Mane 6, Discord, and the Fujiyama siblings finally made it to the outskirts of Ponyville. Silver looked rather indifferent about it, while Heaven was ecstatic about a world full of unicorns and the other seven brothers seemed suspicious of the group of friends, "Silver, are you sure we can trust these guys?" Silver heard Raiden ask in his head.

"I'm sure we can. I haven't seen them thinking of anything like what that dictator put us through. It'll be fine, trust me," Silver said back. Raiden still seemed unsure. But as they neared the town, they saw smoke billowing up from the buildings.

"What happened?!" Twilight exclaimed, as the six ponies, and Discord rushed towards town, leaving the nine siblings behind, looking rather confused.

"What was that about?" Icezer asked.

"I don't know, but we should see what we can do to help out," Silver suggested, as they rushed towards town, with Francisco staying behind with Heaven. As they drew nearer, they saw an army of robots attacking the town, "What is all this?!" Silver exclaimed, as they saw some ponies trying in vain to fight off the robots.

"No time for questions, we got to help them!" Brian exclaimed, as he became enveloped in fire, and delivered a powerful drop kick to some of the robots. The ponies were frightened by a human surrounded by flames, but were grateful, as they ran for safety.

"Always in with a flashy entrance. Just like Brian," Raiden said, as he turned into lightning, and rocketed across town, destroying robots left and right.

"Let's get in there too guys!" Silver said, as the other five brothers leapt into action. Icezer was skating along an icy trail he made, piercing robots with giant icicles.

"You guys need to get to shelter!" Icezer said to the ponies he rescued. They ran off as he ordered them to.

"Spectral Surge: Gale of Lost Souls!" Heiru said, as an eerie wind began blowing, which seemed to short of the robots that were caught up in it, "If you value your lives, you need to evacuate to safety," Heiru said to the ponies he saved. They ran off.

Silver was being backed up into a corner by some robots. Just then, they began glowing cyan, and started getting crushed, "Never underestimate everyone," Silver said, as he used his telekinetic powers to rip some more robots to pieces. Echo-Echo's arms then reformed into cannons, and blasted away a bunch more robots using sound, which caused some nearby glass to shatter. But as he was doing this, he never noticed a larger robot coming at him from behind. The metal teen was sent flying when he was hit with a wrecking ball. However, he was undamaged.

"IT IS USELESS. MY EXOSUIT IS MADE ENTIRELY OF ADAMANTIUM, THE HARDEST METAL THAT EXISTS!" Echo-Echo said, as some sound disks come off of his palms, and surrounded the robot that hit him, "SONIC DOOM!" he yelled, as sound began crushing the robot.

A few moments later,

The seven brothers regrouped, trying to catch their breath, "I think... that was the last of them," Brian said, completely exhausted. Raiden then began inspecting one of the robots.

"Hmm, judging by the workmanship, I can assume that whoever built these bots was human," Raiden said, opening an access panel.

"But why were they just attacking?" Silver asked.

"They weren't attacking. This programing indicates that they were built for some sort of search and seizure mission," Raiden clarified. Soon enough, they were rejoined by the ponies from before, save for Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie.

"Did you boys do all this?" Rarity asked.

"We did. You're welcome, by the way," Icezer said.

"Where did you learn to do all that cool stuff!?" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"We were created solely for combat, and also protecting our little sister," Silver explained in a tone that made the ponies think he didn't want to talk about it anymore.

"Hey guys, is it safe yet?" Francisco asked, appearing from a portal.

"Yeah, we took care of the last of these bots," Heiru replied, as the spacial teen, and the youngest of the nine siblings exited the rift.

"By the way, where are the other two from before?" Stealth asked, not seeing the shy Pegasus or the hyper active pink pony.

"They went to go look for our children, to make sure they're safe," Twilight replied. No one could have expected what happened next. The brothers, save for Silver, who read each of their minds, and Heaven, who wasn't really paying attention, all had varying looks of contempt.

"Take it easy guys. They haven't done anything to incite rash action," Silver said to each of his brothers through their minds.

"But they said 'their children'! That means they're adults!" Brian raged.

"Silver, you know what happened the last time we trusted adults," Raiden added, sounding equally as angered.

"I know, but I haven't seen any thoughts on them capturing us. if anything, they're all thinking about helping us," Silver retorted.

"I DON'T LIKE THIS ONE BIT," Echo-Echo countered.

"But if what Silver says is true, then we might as well give them a chance," Stealth added. The other six brothers still seemed leery about it, but they reluctantly agreed. Not two seconds later, Fluttershy came back with Toby and Serenity, riding on her back.

"A human?" Silver questioned, as he began reading Toby's mind. What he found horrified the psychic teen, "Oh my god! How can a human father turn against his own flesh and blood?!" Silver thought, sounding sick to his stomach.

"What's wrong Silver?" Raiden asked. Silver relayed what he had just seen to his brothers and sister. Needless to say, they were just as horrified as Silver.

"And from what I've read in Toby's mind, there are other humans in this world, and each of them have had experiences just as bad or even worse than he did," Silver said.

"I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE A HUMAN THAT'S BEEN THROUGH MORE CRAP THAN US," Echo-Echo replied.

"Are these the guys that got rid of all these robots, Momma?" Toby asked.

"Yes. They were able to stop them all," Fluttershy replied.

"And somehow, this guy can read minds and use psychic powers!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, motioning to Silver.

"So there's no need for introductions on your part, Toby. I'm Silver by the way. Silver Fujiyama. And these are my brothers, Brian, Icezer, Raiden, Akira, Takashi, Francisco, and Heiru, and our little sister, Heaven," Silver said, introducing himself and his brothers.

"Something's buggin' me. A moment ago, you said you were 'created for combat'. What do ya mean by that?" Applejack asked.

"We'd rather not talk about it," Brian replied.

"Well, I for one find that phrase entirely barbaric. Living creatures being meant for just fighting?" Rarity said in an appalled tone.

"And did I hear you right, that these robots were just searching for something?" Twilight asked Raiden.

"Indeed," the thunder teen replied. They all then noticed the sky turning orange, as the sun was setting.

"This day went by fast," Silver commented.

"And we've got a lot of rebuilding to do," Twilight commented, seeing the destroyed buildings of Ponyville.

"I got this, don't worry," Francisco said. He clasped his hands, and began glowing magenta. A wave of energy then expanded from him which not only fixed the buildings, but also got rid of the robots.

"Where'd the robots go? And how are the buildings all fixed?!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, not seeing any destruction.

"That would be my ability. I can warp space to create or rebuild stuff, or to deposit junk, like those robots, in a pocket space," Francisco explained.

"Well, it's getting late. Would you kids like to rest at my castle, over yonder?" Twilight asked, pointing to her castle. The eight teens looked rather uncomfortable.

"Sorry Princess, it's nothing against you or your friends, but, my brothers and I have extreme difficulty trusting adults and humans," Silver replied.

"But you kids do need somewhere to sleep," Rarity commented.

"I can take care of that myself. Plus, we'd rather not be a burden. But don't worry, we'll try to stay close to town," Francisco replied, opening a portal. One by one, each of his brothers went through, leaving only him and Heaven to go through, "Come on Heaven," Francisco said, taking Heaven's hand.

"Hold on a minute," Heaven said, turning to the ponies, "Sorry about this guys, but my brothers really hate adults and humans. But I can tell they can trust at least all of you," Heaven said, as she and her brother went through the portal, leaving the ponies and Toby to reflect on what they just witnessed.

"They hate all adults and humans?" Rainbow Dash questioned.

"I don't think it's possible for someone or something to hate their own kind," Rarity added.

"Well, we should take baby steps with these kids. After all, they did fend off all those robots," Twilight commented. Fluttershy then felt her son and daughter slumping on her back, completely tired.

"It's getting late. I should get going," Fluttershy said, taking her son and daughter home.

"I'd better get my kids home too," Rainbow Dash said, taking off.

"We should meet up tomorrow to discuss what to do with those kids," Rarity commented.

"Agreed. See you guys in the morning," Twilight said, returning to her castle. After the elements departed, a certain draconequess was very intrigued by the group of kids from another dimension.

"Oh yes, I think I should try to be a father to them. But how?" Discord pondered.

Chapter 3.5: Bad Memories

At Twilight's Castle,

"So, we've learned that those boys not only have powers, but they also bear a strong hatred for adults and humans alike," Twilight said, as she and her friends were all gathered around her table.

"They did say they were also 'created solely for combat'. What does that even mean?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"I don't know, but hopefully Luna will be able to help shed some light on this," Twilight said in hope. Just then, a flash came from the center of the room, and Princesses Celestia and Luna had appeared.

"I came as soon as we got your reply," Celestia said to her former student.

"Though, we're still a bit unsure by what you meant. How did eight teenaged humans repel an attack on Ponyville by themselves?" Luna asked.

"Get this! They have these crazy cool superpowers! I'm talking flames, electricity, even telekinesis!" Rainbow Dash blurted out.

"As it turns out, the eight of them were the source of that energy spike from this morning," Twilight stated.

"They were just protecting their little sister from a bunch of Timber Wolves," Rarity added.

"Hmm, that's rather a lot to take in. Are you sure you saw them with these superpowers?" Celestia asked.

"We saw one of them engulfed in fire," Applejack replied.

"But that's not even the weirdest part. Before they disappeared, they said they have an immense hatred towards all adults and humans, all except for the little girl that was with them," Fluttershy added.

"Hmm, that does sound rather strange, but it doesn't tell us about who they really are or where they come from," Luna commented.

"Well, we were hoping you could show us there memories?" Twilight politely asked.

"I can try," Luna said, as she began casting her spell. IN a flash of light, they were all gone.

In the Mind Scape,

The eight ponies all saw that they were in some kind of black room, nothing in it, "Well, this is a whole lot of nothing," Rainbow Dash commented. All of a sudden, Silver appeared.

"You guys seem to be busy with something," he commented.

"I take it this young man is one of the teen heroes?" Celestia asked. The ponies nodded.

"'Hero'? My brothers and I have been called numerous things over the past few months, but never heroes," Silver said.

"I'm terribly sorry to hear that. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Celestia, Princess, and co-ruler of Equestria" Celestia said.

"And I am Luna, the other ruler," Luna said.

"Forgive me if I don't bow, but I'm still a bit leery about trusting adults, even though I can read minds and what not," Silver stated coldly.

"It is quite alright young one. But I can sense something is troubling you. Care to elaborate?" Celestia asked. Silver turned away.

"You guys are here to see my memories, right? It would be better if you found the truth yourselves, rather than me telling you," Silver said, as he began levitating. With that, images began appearing all around. First everything began out in a sepia light.

"Where... am I? This.... this isn't the same, was everything before just a dream?! Why?" they heard the voice of Silver question. Images of a laboratory then appeared, with eight different lifeforms in eight different tubes.

"Professor! One of the specimen's brain wave patterns is changing!" a scientist called out.

"The water in three tanks is either increasing, decreasing in temperature, or increasing in voltage!" another called out.

'Those voices,' they heard Silver's voice say, 'They're on the outside, where I must be!' the ponies then saw one of the test tubes glowing cyan, the glass around it breaking, until *CRASH*. The scientists took notice. The ponies were shocked to see the lifeform was none other than Silver himself!

"Can you hear me?" the chief scientist asked. The newly hatched Silver looked up, "Answer, can you understand me?" he asked.

"Um, yes," Silver replied, feeling immensely confused.

"Astounding! Your Psychic Powers have already been proven by breaking out of the test tube!" the chief scientist exclaimed.

"Psychic.... Powers?" Silver asked, confused.

"Allow me to introduce myself. I am Mark Fujiyama, your Father, in a manner of speaking, and this is your Mother, Lily," the chief scientist said, introducing himself and his wife.

"Um, it's nice to meet both of you. I'm... rather confused?" Silver commented.

"It's quite natural, given your current state. You were not alive before today. In a matter speaking, today is your birthday," Mark stated. No sooner than he did, seven more crashes come from the other tubes, "Brilliant! Our experiment is a success!" he exclaimed gleefully.

"Your.... experiment?" Raiden asked.

"Allow me to explain. My wife, our colleagues and I have been experimenting with human reproduction. Strictly speaking, we were thinking rather than do it the traditional way, why not speed things up with science? And all eight of you, my sons, are proof that the experiment is a success!" Mark explained.

"So, we are simply the end result of your experiment. What becomes of us now that your experiment is complete?" Raiden asked.

"Oh several things! First, we'll get you dressed. Then, we'll brief you on our current situation. After that, we need to help you to control your powers. But before all of that mess with your powers, we should introduce you to others who are just like you, including our own daughter, your sister, Heaven," Lily replied, as each mutant were handed some clothes. The ponies covered their eyes, as the eight brothers dressed themselves. Once they were done, the ponies saw that that were wearing the outfits they saw them wearing, save for Silver's denim jacket, "Now then, what you need to know is that a political tyrant has come into power. His name is John Clark. He's an absolute monster. He's been imprisoning mutants such as you boys, and killing off their families," Lily began. The ponies were, needless to say, shocked at this.

"So, what does this have to do with any of us?" Brian asked.

"We created the eight of you for two purposes. One is to try and take John Clark out of power. In order to do this, we designed each of you to be super mutants, much more powerful than a regular one," Lily replied.

"With these powers, we want you to break into John Clark's fortress, free every mutant, and take him down for good," Mark explained.

"I see, so, what happens to the second task we were created for?" Icezer asked.

"The second task may sound a little on the boring side, but it is extremely important. You boys are to protect and guard this little girl," Mark said, presenting Heaven.

"Are these my new big brothers?" Heaven asked.

"Indeed sweetheart. They will be in charge of protecting you from John Clark's forces," Lily replied.

"Is she a mutant?" Heiru asked.

"No, she's purely human. But much like you boys, she's our pride and joy," Mark said.

"Now then, I don't think this needs to be said, but invading John Clark's fortress is not an easy task. In that sense, you boys will not be alone in this fight," Lily added.

"If you come with us, we'll take you to meet up with the rest of your squad. Oh, and before I forget," Mark said, placing gold bracelets on each of the brothers, "These power inhibitors will limit the amount of power you use, so you don't burn out," he explained, as he then led the eight brothers out the door. The ponies then saw them all walking to what looked to be a training area. In it, there were a quite a few mutants, including a redheaded girl wearing an armor breastplate and a plaid skirt, a cat girl who was only wearing a black bikini, black thigh high socks and purple boots, a trio of well dressed boys, one dressed in attire similar to Raiden's, and another redhead in overalls, who had her hair in braids.

"These the new guys?" one of the well dressed boys asked.

"Yes. These are your new teammates; Silver, Raiden, Brian, Takashi, Akira, Icezer, Heiru, and Francisco. I want you all to help them to control their powers, so that they'll be ready for their first mission," Mark explained. What the ponies saw was jaw-dropping. One by one, each of the new mutants took turns with fighting the eight brothers, showing them how to properly control their powers. Luna used her magic to fast forward a bit, to what was a scene of true barbaric nature. There were soldiers marching in, slapping handcuffs on each of the new mutants, which then teleported them away, while also firing their guns at the scientists. These actions left the Fujiyama brothers and Heaven the only ones left.

"Come along quietly. You're all under arrest by the authority of John Clark!" one of the soldiers demanded.

"You are in no position to be making demands, human," Silver said, using his psychic powers to lift up some of the soldiers, and hurl them into the wall, leaving huge craters.

"Let's use this opportunity to escape," Francisco suggested, as he opened a portal. The brothers all made their way though, with Icezer taking Heaven. Francisco was the last to leave the portal as it closed.

"Well, that is truly traumatic. But I still don't see why they hate adults," Celestia commented.

"I hate to ask, but are there any more memories?" Twilight asked, hopeful that there weren't anymore gruesome images for them to see. Her hopes were dashed when Luna nodded.

"From what I can tell, the brothers and their sister all attempted to seek refuge with some human adults, but in truth, they only wanted to turn them in for cash," Luna replied, showing them all scenes where the siblings were taken in by seemingly nice people, only to later discover that they were just doing it for money. And each scene ended with the brothers using their powers to escape with Heaven.

"Now you see," they turned to see Silver, "It isn't you guys who did something bad," Silver explained.

"We understand Silver, but as the Princess of Friendship, I can guarantee that no one will trade you boys or your sister in for something petty like money," Twilight reassured.

"I know. I can read your mind, remember? And while you do speak the truth, my brothers are not as easily convinced." Silver explained.

"We understand. We'll just have to bide our time if we want to earn your brother's trust," Celestia said.

"Thank you for being so understanding. I do what I can to keep this family together. I am the oldest of us, after all," Silver said.

"Well, I guess this is all we can do for now. We'll see you later then," Twilight said, as Luna took them all out of the Mind Space.

Back in Twilight's Castle,

"So, now we know why they hate adults and humans. The question is 'how do we move on from here?'," Rarity wondered.

"Our best bet is to try to befriend them gradually. They seem rather hostile if provoked," Luna commented.

"Well, we'll figure that part out. Thank you both for coming on such short notice," Twilight said.

"It is no trouble at all. We hope to hear from you soon," Celestia said, as she and Luna teleported away.

"Ah'd best be gettin' back home. It's gettin' late," Applejack said, as she and the others took their leave.

Chapter 4: A Demonstration of Power

The morning came, and the Fujiyama siblings had to find food for breakfast, "Ok guys, where should we start looking?" Silver asked.

"I think I see an orchard over in that direction," Stealth replied, pointing towards Sweet Apple Acres. Raiden took out some binoculars from his hat, and inspected the orchard.

"Well, it certainly does look to have more than enough apples for us to eat, but it also looks to belong to that orange pony we met yesterday," Raiden said, seeing some fencing around the trees, as well as the farm further up.

"Well, our best bet now would be to try and find some fruit trees growing elsewhere," Icezer commented.

"Well, I know how you guys feel about it, but we could always ask the princess and her pals if we can join them for breakfast," Silver suggested.

"Are you sure? We don't even know them. For all we know, they can be just like the adults and other humans back home," Brian countered.

"Do you have psychic powers?" Silver asked. The other seven brothers knew he had them there.

"Well, alright. But I don't like this one bit," Brian snarled, as they walked towards town. Unbeknownst to any of them, or the townsfolk, a group of evil was slowly encroaching on the unsuspecting town.

For the Mane Six and their families, the morning was fairly normal. They did all their normal morning routines, having breakfast, doing their normal hygiene regiments, and their chores. While busy in her library, Twilight couldn't help but wonder about the Fujiyama kids, "I hope they're ok," Twilight said to herself. She had only stepped outside for a moment, when she saw the very group of kids she was thinking about, walking about, no doubt looking for food, "Oh, boys! Over here!" Twilight called, drawing the attention of the nine siblings.

"Hello again Twilight. I trust your morning is going well?" Raiden asked. Though she could tell he was being polite, Twilight could sense a hint of caution in his words. It became apparent to the lavender princess that the other seven brothers, apart from Silver, still don't fully trust Twilight.

"Yes it has. I take it you boys are looking for something to eat?" Twilight asked.

"We are. Though it's proving difficult to find some unclaimed fruit trees," Silver replied.

"Well, I could whip up some pancakes if you want. I'll even let you eat out here, if you're not wanting to come inside," Twilight offered.

"Well, that would be much appreciated. Thank you," Silver bowed. With that, Twilight retreated back into the castle to make them some pancakes. Lookin around, Icezer saw that some ponies were all looking towards the sky with alarmed expressions. Looking towards where they were all looking, he adopted a similar alarmed expression.

"Guys.... LOOK!" the icy teen exclaimed, pointing to the sky. Looking towards what their brothers looking at, the Fujiyama siblings all saw a particular gang of teenaged dragons, all coming in for a landing in front of the castle.

"There it is guys. An entire castle made entirely of crystal! All for us to eat!" the lead dragon, who was red, said ambitiously.

"Looks amazing!" a chunkier dragon commented. It was then they noticed the Fujiyama brothers.

"Hey, beat it! This place is OURS to eat!" the lead dragon snarled.

"Last I checked, this castle was claimed, so I see no reason why you should claim it for yourself," Silver commented, stepping forth.

"I guess you guys aren't from around here. See, here's how things work. We're dragons, the mightiest of all creatures! We take what we want and no one can stop us!" the lead dragon snapped.

"What a complete bother. You only make that claim because you view every other living creature as inferior to you. But riddle me this..... what do you do when you face some one who is stronger than you?" Raiden questioned, as the brothers all took a stand in opposition to the dragons.

"You're out of your mind! There's nothing stronger than a dragon! Go teach these chumps a lesson!" the lead dragon barked at the chunky dragon.

"Got it," the chunky dragon said, as he charged at the brothers. He was about to rake them with his claws when Silver held up his hand, becoming enveloped in a cyan glow, stopping the dragon's attack, much to the shock of the other dragons and some ponies who were watching them. With a flick of his fingers, Silver sent the hapless dragon back, crashing through a tree.

"You don't seem to get us either. Our powers are far too great for such basic attacks to work," Silver explained.

"Then I guess we're just going to have to do this the hard way then," a lankier dragon with hair covering his eyes commented.

"Is that a challenge?" Brian questioned.

"More like an invitation to getting taught a lesson!" the lead dragon yelled, as the chunky dragon rejoined them.

"Very well. Which of you shall oppose us first?" Silver demanded. Another dragon stepped forward.

"You guys may be strong, but we're practically invincible!" he stated. Silver nudged for Stealth to go, which the ninja did. From the sidelines, the other Mane Six members, along with their kids were watching. Fluttershy, Toby and Serenity were watching with a hint of fear in their eyes at the dragons. Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash had looks of unease, while Pinkie Pie looked to be eager to see how this pans out. As for the other kids, they had looks of fear and unease at the sight of the dragons, as did some of the surrounding ponies, "Alright, take this!" the dragon yelled, as he blew fire at the ninja.

"So predictable," Stealth said, as he dissipated into a bunch of leaves, making the fire breath miss. He then made some gestures with his hands, before placing them on the ground, "Briar Vine Jutsu" he said in Japanese. This made a bunch of briar vines sprout from the ground, and wrap all around the dragon.

"Hey! What the....?!" he exclaimed before being tossed a great distance into a bunch of large boulders.

"No way, how did they...? No matter, keep going!" the lead dragon barked. The lanky dragon went next. Silver then sent Raiden in.

"I'll go with a more direct approach," the dragon commented, as he went in to slash at the straw-hat wearing teen.

"How quaint," Raiden said, as he turned into electricity, and rocketed at the dragon. This not only stopped the dragon's attack, but sent him careening back into another massive boulder, critically injured.

"Maybe those dragons should leave before they get hurt worse. Those guys are way too strong," Toby commented.

"Not likely to happen, Toby. Dragons are extremely prideful, so they won't back down from this," Rarity replied, as Brian stepped up, enveloping himself in crimson flames.

"Looks like once again, I have to do everything myself!" the lead dragon said, as he took flight, breathing fire at Brian, who simply dove into the flames.

"Huh, looks like the stories I've heard about dragon fire weren't exaggerated after all," Brian said, as he used his fire to keep himself suspended in the air. Garble attacked, only for Brian to deliver a powerful kick to his jaw. The dragon attacked again, only for Brian to counter even harder.

"I thought that dragon was much faster?" Rainbow Dash questioned.

"That Brian guy is just too fast!" Pinkie replied, as the two combatants flew even higher into the skies. Garble tried hitting Brian with his fire breath, only for Brian to latch onto him from behind.

"Hey, let me go!" Garble demanded, as he struggled to break free.

"If that's what you want," Brian said, as he went full on nova, before hurdling towards the ground like a meteor.

"No way.... even dragons can't stop these guys?!" Lyra exclaimed, as Brian and Garble neared the ground.

"Here's my final move...… BLAZE EXECUTION!" Brian yelled, as they made contact with the ground, creating a massive crater, and a tornado of scarlet flames rocketed up into the sky. From the flames, Brian leapt out, unscathed. The same could not be said for Garble, as he struggled to keep standing.

"Why..... you....," he said before loosing consciousness.

"No way... the boss actually lost?" the chunky dragon commented.

"Maybe coming here wasn't such a great idea after all," the lanky dragon replied, as they collected Garble, and ran off.

"Behold our power! We are the strongest Mutants that exist! We're even stronger than a dragon," Silver proclaimed.

"Amazing, they're strong! Incredibly strong!" Melody commented.

"That's my big brothers for you! They always fight at their highest level when facing a threat!" Heaven proclaimed. It was then, that Twilight came back out, using her magic to levitate nine plates of pancakes.

"Ok kids, come and...." Twilight silenced herself, when she saw what the three brothers had done. There was a massive crater where Brian used his final attack, with the earth still looking like lava, "Uh, did.... I miss something?" Twilight questioned, as her kids all saw the destruction.

"Eh, some trouble making dragons thought they could chow down on your castle. We chased them off," Silver replied, as they all accepted the pancakes.

"You should've seen them! They were way too strong for those dragons to handle!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"One of the perks of being Super Mutants," Silver replied, as they ate the pancakes that Twilight generously provided. Heaven practically drenched her stack in syrup, before devouring them all.

"Dang it, Heaven! You need to control yourself with syrup," Raiden scolded.

"Could we maybe use one of your bathrooms so we can clean Heaven off?" Silver asked.

"Of course. You're all more than welcome to freshen up after breakfast," Twilight replied.

"I think I may take you up on that offer, Princess," Raiden said, as they all finished up with their breakfast.

"If you'll come with us, we'll show you guys to the bathrooms," Kelly offered, as she and her siblings led the Fujiyama Siblings into the castle.

"So, can anyone tell me what exactly happened out here?" Twilight asked the crowd that amassed. However, unbeknownst to anyone there, an even greater evil approached.

Chapter 5: The Power Ponies and Their Enemies

After washing up from breakfast, the Fujiyama siblings were all gathered outside the castle, as Twilight appeared in front of them, "Ok boys, and Heaven, I know you're still a bit iffy on trusting adults, but I can assure you, no one in town is out to get you," Twilight said, as she was joined by her kids and friends.

"We can at least show you guys around town, that way, you'll at least know where everything is," Rainbow Dash added. The brothers, apart from Silver, still seemed unsure about trusting adults, even if they weren't human.

"Hey, what's that?" Heaven asked, pointing to a building next to Twilight's castle.

"That would be The School of Friendship I established, in the hopes of spreading bonds of friendship to ALL creatures in this world," Twilight explained.

"So far, some of the students there include Yaks, Dragons, Griffons, Changelings, and Hippogriffs," Rarity added.

"We've also enrolled in the school, since the old Elementary School shut down for health reasons," Conner added.

"A school that teaches how to make friends? I guess that's efficient," Raiden commented, as they all made their way into town. However, high above in the skies, another evil would soon make itself known.

"And if we come over here, you'll find Sugarcube Corner, the local bakery," Twilight said, showing the nine siblings the Gingerbread House bakery.

"Looks like it's actually made out of gingerbread," Icezer commented.

"The Cakes wanted it to look that way, to help drum up business," Pinkie Pie explained.

"YAY! COOKIES AND CANDY!" Heaven exclaimed, as she tried rushing up to the store to try and get some sweets, only to be held back by Heiru.

"Cool it there, Heaven. You already pancakes drenched in syrup. You don't need any more sweets right now," the emo ghost boy said. Heaven only puffed up her cheeks in a pout.

"If you come this way, we can take you to the park, where most ponies go to hang out," Twilight said, leading them away from the city square. As they did, they noticed some kind of commotion, as some of the ponies over there were running away, "What's going on?!" Twilight questioned.

"Those robot things from the other day are back! And a bunch of ponies we've never seen before are accompanying them!" Bon-Bon replied, as she continued running away.

"Sounds like trouble," Stealth commented, as they all ran over to the park, apart from the younger children, who were ordered to stay put. And lo and behold, they saw more menacing machines, like the ones the Brothers fought. Above them, in a hover craft, a pony the Mane Six immediately recognized as the Mane-iac, along with five other ponies, one of them being made of sludge, another looking like a mime, another like an Egyptian Pharaoh, another like a thief, and the last looked like a diva.

"Those Ponies, they're the enemies of the Power Ponies! What on Earth are they doing in Ponyville?!" Spike questioned.

"I'm assuming by the sounds of what you're saying, these guys are comic book villains?" Silver asked.

"That's right. But if they're here, the Power Ponies shouldn't be too far away," Spike replied.

"Well, if that's the case, we should at least try and hold them off until they get here," Brian commented, as he and his brothers took to the shadows. The villains took notice of them.

"Ah, the Princess and her entourage have finally arrived. Conquering this flyspeck of a town should be easy enough," the Mane-iac commented.

"Alright you guys, as the Princess of this town, I am ordering you to stand down!" Twilight demanded.

"Not on your life, 'Princess'! Our benefactor is providing us with all kinds of experimental tech that needs to be tested. Though I don't get why he wants us to attack this dump of a town," The Pharaoh commented. Meanwhile, the eight brothers were readying themselves, Armed with shurikens, chain-sickles, kunai knives, and other ninja weapons, the boys looked like they were readying to join the battle.

"Who is this benefactor of yours, anyway?" Twilight questioned.

"Now that would be telling," High Heel replied.

"Uh, we weren't asking! Start talking, or we'll bring the fight!" Rainbow Dash demanded, flying up to them.

"If only it were that simple," The Mane-iac replied, swatting Rainbow Dash away.

"What say you, Silver? Should we attack?" Icezer asked.

"Let's try to get closer first, but don't attack without my signal," Silver replied. In a flash, the eight brothers vanished, as they tried to move close to the nearest tree, while avoiding detection. However, their efforts were in vain, as Long Face saw a blip on the motion tracker. He then fired a laser at a tree, revealing the brothers, who got out of the way.

"Children? You brought children to a battlefield?" the Mane-iac questioned.

"WAIT?! THIS PLACE IS A BATTLEFIELD?! NO WONDER THE LAND HERE WAS SO CHEAP! OTHERWISE, I WOULD NEVER HAVE OPENED A RAMEN SHOP!" Echo-Echo exclaimed, as a restaurant suddenly appeared behind him.

"HUH?!?! HOW LONG HAS THAT BEEN THERE?!" the Pharaoh screeched, he eyes bulging, as a random blast from a cannon destroyed the restaurant.

"NO! I DON'T HAVE INSURANCE ON THAT PLACE! OH, I AM IN BIG TROUBLE NOW!" Echo-Echo yelled, as his eyes bulged out, before falling to his knees. Just then, another hovercraft descended from the sky.

"Having trouble with these ponies, are you?" a voice that was familiar to Twilight and friends asked.

"That voice!" Twilight commented.

"It can't be!" Fluttershy exclaimed, as the craft lowered itself, revealing a burly man at the piolet's seat. He wore a leather vest, over a red, long sleeved shirt, and wore a pair of tattered jeans.

"Long time no see! I still see you have my son," the man commented, seeing Toby with his friends.

"James Mason. You have a lot of nerve to show your face here after what you did," Twilight stated bitterly.

"THERE IT IS!" Silver yelled, as he used her psychic powers to slam the hovercraft on his head, "I was wondering where I put my hat!"

"NEWSFLASH! YOU WEREN'T WEARING A HAT!" Rarity yelled, her eyes bulging, as James took a T-Pose.

"Well, now that our newest ally is here, taking you on shouldn't be too much trouble," Mane-iac commented, cackling evilly.

"Yeah, we know James isn't a hat!" High Heel added. This caught James' attention.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M NOT A HAT!?!" James yelled, as he did a backflip out of the craft, "Man, that was close. They really had me believing I was a hat. I've never met a Wiggin' specialist whose mastered mind control before. Well, TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME!" James proclaimed.

"Heh, we accept you challenge, old man," Brian replied.

"Challenge to what?" Applejack asked.

"To put it simply, James has challenged the eight of us to a form of battling that's only appeared in one anime. It's called a 'Wiggin' Out' battle," Raiden replied.

"To put it simply, we're going to use a mutual theme, and the one who Wigs out the best using said theme wins the match," Stealth added, as James pulled out a remote.

"Now, let's pick a theme," James suggested, as the hovercraft tried to get off of Silver's head.

"Hopefully it's something Silver knows about," Rainbow Dash asked, as the craft finally pulled off of Silver, revealing a present.

"Well, how about that? The theme for this battle is Christmas," James commented.

"BUT IT'S APRIL!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Well, how about I get things started?" James suggested, as the scene cut to a movie theater.

James Mason Theatre Presents:

I'm Dreaming of a Robotic Christmas

Staring James Mason in:

James Mason, the Red Nosed Mechanic

On a cold, winters eve, an adolescent James Mason tried to earn enough money to buy Christmas Presents for his family by selling Churros at a street corner, "Churros, get your churros," the teen James said, as people walked by, But nobody bought any. If only people knew they were delicious treats coated in cinnamon sugar, then maybe poor James' luck would be better, but then, who told that simpleton to sell something no one had any interest during Christmas, "Churros.... r-red hot.....," James shivered, as he looked at his wares, "This is bad, I haven't even sold one yet. Some Merry Christmas," he said, as he tried to warm up his hands, "It's cold..... I'm freezing. But the landlord won't let my family back into our apartment until we pay the rent. What should I do?!" he pondered.

"Hurry! The party's starting!" a woman said, as she pulled her boyfriend along.

"What's the rush? I'm sure they're just serving the same bad food as last year," the man replied. Then, James got an Idea.

Later, at the party,

People were mingling, as the intercom went off, "We got some great food for you this year, folks!" James' voice said.

"Fantastic!"

"Churros!" James announced.

"CHURROS?!" everyone yelled, their eyes all bulging, as the curtains pulled back, revealing James, dressed as a Christmas tree, holding a box of churros.

"That's right! Yum yummy churros!" he happily announced. A woman screamed in the audience.

"That's even lamer than the food served last year," a man commented, as James leapt off the stage.

"CHURROS!" he yelled, as he charged the guests, who all scattered, "HERE EAT! EAT A CHURRO!" he yelled, trying to force churros onto the guests. He then extended a churro to one of the guests, "Hmm? It's quite delicious," he said, a menacing look on his face.

"Gah! Who is this guy!?" the man exclaimed.

"Someone help!" the woman he was with cried, as James smiled even more menacingly at them.

"OK! LET'S SEE YOU INVITATION!" a guard yelled, as he grabbed James.

"I'M THE CATERER! AND CHURROS ARE ON THE MENU!" James yelled, as he groveled at the guards feet, "Please, I'm begging you! Just try a little one! I swear, they're good!" he pleaded, as he was escorted out of the room, and thrown out into the snow, "Churro! Churro!" his voice echoed, as he fell a few feet from a churro that was lying in the snow.

The End

"So, how did you like my Wiggin' Out?" James asked, crossing his arms. Meanwhile, the eight Fujiyama Brothers went through several boxes of tissues.

"That was such a touching story!" Icezer sobbed.

"WHICH PART!?" Twilight exclaimed.

"So, in my book, that means I win," James declared, as the eight brothers got on their feet.

"Now hang on a minute! I'll show you what the real Christmas Wiggin' Out is all about!" Silver proclaimed.

"Oh yeah?!" James yelled indignantly, as Silver and brothers were now in what looked to be a Shogun throne. Silver was at the throne, hold a scroll.

"Once upon a time, there lived a girl named Little Red Riding Hood, and it was Christmas," Silver read on the scroll.

"I think they brought the wrong scroll," Fluttershy commented flatly, as the scene cut to a movie theater.

Fujiyama Bro. Theater Presents

The Sequel to James Mason's Wiggin' Out

The Fujiyama Siblings in:

A Very Fujiyama Christmas:

Chapter 1: I'll be Fujiyama For Christmas

The Scene Focuses on an apartment complex. Inside one of the apartments, the Eight Brothers were all huddled around a table, with some kind of contest entry slip, while Heaven was sleeping nearby in a dinosaur onesie, chewing on her pillow, "You're listening to the sounds of Christmas on K-Bad. Hey, I hope you stopped by the K-Bad van today, outside the mall, and picked up one of our prize giveaway entry forms. Just fill it out, and you could win a whole years supply of hot pepper flavored, artificial gelatin. Mmm-mmm, yummy," a radio announcer said, as images of the eight brothers and their sister, enjoying red gelatin, entered their minds.

"We're trying to fill out these entry forms, but..... THEY'RE IN JAPANESE!" Silver exclaimed, as they all just drew various doodles on their forms.

"Maybe drawing some fancy doodles will be enough to get noticed," Francisco commented.

"Heh, hot pepper gelatin. That's for us!" Icezer commented. Just then, a thought came to Brian's mind.

"Wait, aren't we allergic?" he asked. The eight brothers then hung their heads in defeat.

The End

"BWAAAAAAA! THAT IS WAY TOO SAD!" James exclaimed, as tears came flowing like waterfalls from his eyes, as he collapsed, "I never knew any one could have such heart breaking Christmas memories!" he exclaimed, as tears kept flowing.

"BUT THEY NEVER ENTERED THE CONTEST!" Shadow Mane exclaimed. James then grabbed Silver by his shirt.

"Tell me you made that whole story up! Say it was all just a fib!" he begged.

"I WISH WE COULD SAY IT WAS LIE, BUT WE LIVED IT!" Silver sobbed, not even looking into James' eyes, "And now... we can't shake it!" James went colorless, as an image of a goldfish escaping a net popped into everyone's minds.

"They just.... wigged out," James commented, as he fainted.

"BOSS!" the villains all screamed, as Long Face poured a bottle of hot sauce into James' mouth, revitalizing him.

"Your wig out story was quite sad, but we're not about to concede defeat just yet!" James said, as he pressed a button on his vest. From his hovercraft, which somehow was repaired, a gelatinous ooze fell out. It then took a human form.

"That looks like Chaos from the Sonic series of games," Silver commented.

"Yes. I was surprised when I discovered it for myself. Now then Chaos, go and eliminate those kids," James ordered. The watery creature then went on the attack, smacking Raiden and Heiru.

"Why you....!" Brian said, as he let loose a blast of fire. He thought it would evaporate Chaos, but he was wrong, as a watery arm grabbed him by the throat and slammed him on the ground.

"Ok, we need a new plan," Silver commented, as he dodged some of Chaos' attacks, while returning attacks himself.

"This doesn't look good. We should get the other kids, and evacuate them to the castle," Twilight suggested. The others agreed, and rushed to their kid's sides.

"C'mon kiddos, we're heading back to the castle!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. As they began to move, they soon found themselves surrounded by mummy ponies.

"You're not going anywhere!" one of them said, as he threw his wrappings around Charity, taking her hostage, "Don't move, if you don't want anything to happen to her!" the mummy said, as he took Charity, and dashed back to the fight, "Hey boss! I got you a little something!" he said, dropping Charity to the ground.

"Oww! You could've set me down gently! Uncultured brute!" Charity hissed, as a shadow loomed over her. She looked up to see Chaos, looking down at her, "Oh dear," she commented, sound genuinely scared, as Chaos placed it's water hand on her. In seconds, Charity was absorbed, reverting to the Element of Generosity, as Chaos appeared to grow larger. This terrified the families, not just because the monster got stronger, but because Charity was absorbed. Rarity and Conner were the most upset.

"CHARITY!" Rarity screeched.

"What did you do to her!?" Twilight demanded.

"Chaos merely absorbed her, and has taken the power of Generosity for itself," James calmly replied.

"Tsk, we need to end this fight, now!" Raiden commented.

"We need back up, and I have the perfect idea.... Ancient Art of the Mind! Goofy Face Attack!" Silver exclaimed, as he and his brothers all started making bizarre faces.

"HOW IS THAT GOING TO HELP MY DAUGHTER?!" Rarity yelled, her eyes bulging out, as tears rushed out like waterfalls.

"No matter. Chaos, finish them!" James ordered. Chaos then went to attack the brothers, who were all still making silly faces. It was then the ground beneath them burst open.

"You all should know, that joking around is not allowed!" a girl's voice yelled. From the dust, a female Draconequess emerged. She did a back flip, and landed in front of the boys.

"Eris! You're here!" Discord exclaimed.

"You know her?" Fluttershy asked.

"Of course! She's my daughter!" Discord replied.

"I was investigating what happened to the Master Element, when I caught these boys all joking around!" Eris yelled, holding a paddle.

"Senpai, it's not our fault! Those guys over there tricked us into acting goofy!" Silver said, as he and his brothers all pointed to James and his gang, tears flowing out of their eyes.

"THEY'RE SERIOUSLY BLAMING THEM FOR ACTING SILLY?!" Applejack yelled, her eyes bulging.

"Oh? And how do you explain all those destroyed robots?" Eris asked, pointing to the several piles of robot parts scattered on the battlefield.

"There's no denying it!" Raiden yelled.

"It's their fault too!" Icezer added, blaming the villains.

"This battle is making my head hurt," Twilight commented dryly.

"Well, if that's the case, then I must destroy them! Because...… I'M A TORPEDO!" Eris yelled, as she rocketed into the villains, sending them all across the battlefield, "I will never allow a single joke to pass me by. It is my duty because...…. I'M A TORPEDO!" she proclaimed.

"Wait, that actually worked?!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"Eris doesn't exactly share my sense of humor. She has one of her own, but won't let any joke she doesn't think is very funny slide," Discord explained, as Chaos grabbed Eris by the tail, and slammed her into the ground.

"But.... wouldn't that maker her one of the legendary joke killers?!" Silver exclaimed.

"'Joke Killer's? What's that?" Applejack asked.

"I've heard about them. They're fierce warriors who destroy anyone who tells jokes they don't think are very funny. But I thought they were just ghost stories told to kids who tell too many knock-knock jokes," Stealth explained, as Brian fired an superheated blast at Chaos.

"But that would mean...." Twilight began.

"That's right. The author is in big trouble, but we're in even more trouble, because we have to say and do the jokes!" Stealth replied, throwing some kunai knifes at Chaos.

"Eris, I need your help! Throw me into the sky!" Raiden said.

"You got it!" Eris said, as she threw Raiden high into the sky. Once he was high enough, he then gathered static energy, then fired it at Chaos, instantly defeating it, as it reduced to a puddle.

"GAH! CHAOS!" James exclaimed, as he quickly boarded his aircraft, and operated the tractor beam, sucking Chaos back into the craft, "Well, it doesn't matter. We have what we came for. We will meet again," James said, as he, and the villains left the group.

"Hold it right there!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, as she flew after them, only to be stopped by Eris, "Hey, let me go! I have to go save Charity!" Rainbow Dash yelled.

"And how do you plan to rescue her? You need to think things through," Eris urged.

"She's right, Rainbow. We need to have a strategy meeting to plan out our next move," Twilight added. Rainbow Dash didn't like it, but she knew they had a point. With a sigh, she relaxed, and Eris let go of the Pegasus.

"Let's head back to the castle," Raiden suggested. With that, they returned to the castle. However, as they did, they soon came across a group of seven ponies, all dressed like superheroes. The six mares consisted of two Earth Ponies, two Pegasus', and two Unicorns, along with an Earth pony colt.

"Can we help you folks?" Twilight asked. Spike then came out of the castle, then stared at the new group with a twinkle in his eyes.

"THE POWER PONIES!"

Chapter 6: Questions and a new threat

After the defeat of the villains, our heroes went to help the hostages. But as Humdrum was helping untie some hostages, he couldn't shake an uneasy feeling when he saw that memory flash when Shadow Mane fell towards him, 'What could it mean?' he asked himself. This did not go unnoticed by Saddle Ranger or Filli-Second, who looked on at their sidekick and friend in worry.

Out of instinct, the two mares walked over to the young colt. "Humdrum? Is something wrong?" Saddle Ranger asked.

Looking up and seeing the worried looks on his friends faces, Humdrum let out a soft sigh, "Girls, do you know how I got my start as your sidekick?" he asked. This made the color from both mares faces drain away.

With a soft sigh, Saddle Ranger sat down, and scooped Humdrum up in a hug, "We were wanting to tell you when you were older, but I think its time we told you, but can we wait till we're in private, then we can tell you?" she asked.

"Ok, but don't forget, I want to know where I came from," Humdrum replied, as Saddle Ranger sat him down.

"We won't. We'll tell the others," Filli-second said, as she, Saddle Ranger, and Humdrum went back to helping the hostages.

Meanwhile, back at the Castle of Friendship,

While they were waiting for the return of the heroes, Heaven decided she wanted to play with the other children. Crystal and Kelly decided to braid her hair, while she painted Clovers nails. Every time she finished painting one nail, she would look towards Stealth, to see if he was up and moving. Just as she finished Clovers left hand, she saw Stealth jerk his head up, with a concerned look in his eyes, "Stealth, what wrong?" Heaven asked.

"I feel a disturbance," he simply replied. Standing up, Stealth walked over to a window, "Hmm, there's no sign of enemies outside, but something just doesn't feel right," he commented, "Stay here, while I go see where the others are," he said, which everyone nodded, before Charity kindly spoke up.

"But Stealth, the others agreed that you would be our guard, in case something were to happen," she explained.

"Oh, well, I should at least check the perimeter, and see if there are any bad guys," the ninja reassured.

"Don't wowwy! Heiwu isn't the only one who's good at that wecon thingy that they do! Stealth is the sneakiest guy there is, and he doesn't take vewy long to come back!" Heaven reassured everyone.

"Right, but if something does happen, scream as loud as you can," Stealth instructed, which everyone nodded. As he walked out of the castle, he then looked left and right, scouting for possible dangers. 'Hmm, nothing here. Maybe behind the castle?' he thought to himself as he checked around the corners of the castle. 'My instincts are hardly ever wrong, so why is there no danger?' he questioned. Just as he went around the entrance side of the castle, he heard an explosion, followed by a blood curdling scream that he recognized, "Oh no, HEAVEN!" on instinct, Stealth quickly ran through the castle, and to the dining area where he left his sister and their new friends.

Upon opening the dining room door, Stealth gasped when he saw a large hole in the wall, "HEAVEN!" the ninja called. He then heard some whimpering coming from a cabinet. As he walked closer, he could faintly hear his sisters whimpering coming from in the cabinet. Stealth then proceeded to open the doors, only to be avalanched by his sister and their friends, "Oof, are you all ok?" Stealth asked.

"We all are Stealth," Stealth turned to see Rarity and Fluttershy coming towards the children with sad looks on their faces, "But, as for that hole, a big robot came in and stole Vibrant Sky!" Rarity cried in distress.

"Oh boy, Rainbow Dash isn't going to like this," Stealth commented.

"Was anyone injured during the attack?" Stealth asked.

"Not physically, but we were terrified when that thing took Vibrant," Toby replied, as he comforted a crying Serenity.

"And don't wowwy Stealth, I'm ok too!" Heaven said, hugging her ninja brother by the legs.

Smiling at his sisters sweet, reassuring tone, Stealth kindly ruffled her hair, "That's good, but I think we should let the others know what's happened," he suggested, as he lead everyone towards town.

Back with our heroes,

As they walked through town, looking for something to eat, Humdrum was getting anxious about his origins, 'I hope Saddle Ranger and Filli Second will keep their promise,' he thought to himself. Just as Twilight was about to suggest something, the group heard a ruckus coming from the market.

"More thieves?" Brian asked, as they ran to investigate. When they got their, they saw some sort of creature, completely made out of water, with eerie green eyes and a visible brain, "What in the world is that thing?!" Brian asked, as the creature began destroying stuff left and right.

"You know, I think I saw that creature in a video game and TV show," Silver commented.

"Yeah, wasn't its name Chaos?" Heiru asked.

"Yeah, but why is Chaos here? There aren't any Chaos Emeralds in Equestria," Icezer asked.

"Maybe it feeds off of some other powerful form of energy?" Raiden suggested, as he saw the creature coming towards them, "We can see you have a brain, so why don't ya start using it?" Raiden taunted.

"Oh, it does know how to use its brain," a voice called. Looking up, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Pinkie Pie all scowled at the sight of Toby's former father, James Mason, sitting comfortably in a hovercraft.

"And just who are you?" Brian demanded.

"My name is James, James Mason, and you are looking at the Equestrian Chaos," James explained.

"James? As in James Mason, the father of Toby, who also killed his sons mother out of jealously?!" Heiru demanded.

"That's right," James said smugly.

"YOU JERK! How dare you show your face in Equestria again?!" Rainbow Dash shouted, as she bolted towards James.

"Chaos, take care of this fly," James ordered, which the Chaos creature complied, by smacking away the rainbow maned mare. Acting fast, Silver caught Rainbow Dash in his telekinesis.

"You ok Rainbow?" Silver asked.

"Yeah, but that thing's strong!" Rainbow replied, looking at the Chaos creature.

"Ah yes, this is the manifestation of Chaos itself!" James explained.

"But I thought Discord was the manifestation of chaos," Twilight said.

"Eh, that amateur won't know what chaos is until he were to meet this little guy," James said, looking at Chaos.

"Au contraire, Jimmy," they all jumped as Discord suddenly appeared out of thin air, "I know Chaos very well," he said with a scowl.

"So, who or what is Chaos?" Silver asked.

Discord was about to answer, but then, they heard an angry lady's voice call, "HEY JERK!" they turned to see a female draconequss running towards them, "WHAT DID YOU DO WITH THE MASTER ELEMENT?!" she demanded.

"Eris, did something happen to the master element?" Discord asked.

"Yeah daddy, you could say that," the new draconequss said, before taking notice of the humans standing with her father, "Oh, these new friends of yours?" Eris asked.

"Yes, but for now, we need to focus on that man, and Chaos," Discord said.

"Oh yes, but first, I thought I could give Chaos a little snack," James said, pulling out a tranquilized Vibrant Sky.

"VIBRANT!" Rainbow Dash cried in distress, "WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BABY!?" Rainbow Dash demanded.

"Oh don't worry, she's still alive. In fact, she is one of the few necessities I need to completely flatten out Equestria," James explained, throwing Vibrant towards Chaos. As soon as Vibrant made contact with Chaos' watery skin, she emitted a bright light that prompted our heroes to cover their eyes. When they looked up again, they were shocked to see that Chaos had grown. It now had a stone hand on the inside of its skin, where the element of Loyalty now sat.

"What did you do?!" Raiden demanded.

"Ah yes, its just as the stone tablets depicted, 'When the Chaos creature devours an element of harmony, it shall grow to new shapes and sizes. Total destruction will befall the land if it is fed all six elements'," James explained.

"Guys!" the group jumped again when they heard the voice of Stealth. Turning towards where the sound originated from, they could see Stealth, along with everyone else, "Drat, we're too late!" Stealth cursed.

"Too late for what?" Twilight asked.

"A big robot stole Vibrant from the castle," Stealth explained, before hearing frightened whimpers. Turning towards his group, he could see Trinity, Lucky, Serenity, Charity, and Season all cowering at the sight of Chaos.

"Girls, what's wrong?" Toby asked.

"T-that thing!" Charity cried.

"W-we know it very well," Trinity said, cowering under the sight of the creature.

"I-its powered by us!" Lucky said.

"Ah well, we can take one little drip," Brian said, launching a fireball at Chaos, who deflected it with an electric barrier, "What the...?!" Brian said, bamboozled by the creatures power.

"Ya can't attack Chaos directly like that!" Season explained.

"Oh, so that country horse is smart, eh? Well, Chaos does deserve another little snack," James said, as a claw shot out from his hover craft, and heading for Season. It was about to latch onto the earth filly, Serenity jumped out in Seasons stead, protecting her friend from certain doom.

"SERENITY!" Toby, Season, and Fluttershy all cried, as they grabbed onto the claw.

"Land sakes girl, what were ya thinking?!" Season asked, as she and Serenity's family tried breaking the Pegasus filly out.

"I d-didn't want you being gobbled up by Chaos," Serenity replied.

"But you'll become a part of Chaos yourself," Fluttershy explained.

"I would r-rather that than one of my friends being a part of it," Serenity explained.

"DADDY! Let my sister go!" Toby pleaded.

"Sister? Toby, that's a horse, you're a human," James explained.

"They're ponies! There's a structural difference!" Toby deadpanned, which resulted in an eye roll from James.

"I have no time for you little bugs," James explained, as the claw whacked Toby, and his mother and little cousin, "And as for you," James said, eyeing Serenity, "You aren't what I was originally going for, but you'll work either way," he said, throwing Serenity at the Chaos creature, who immediately absorbed Serenity in a bright light. Now, Chaos had a symmetrical set of arms, with both the elements of loyalty and kindness in the hands of each, "Ah, he has such a healthy appetite. Now then Chaos, destroy these whelps," James ordered.

And Chaos did just that, it went on a rampage, destroying everything in sight. It even tried attacking our heroes, "We can't just sit here!" Brian yelled.

"Right, so Saddle Ranger, you know what to do," Matterhorn said, which Saddle Ranger nodded, and started getting mad, and turned into a super strong monster, and tried to attack Chaos, only to be sent flying.

"Are you alright?" Francisco asked.

"Yeah, but that thing is tough!" Saddle Ranger replied. Raiden, upon hearing this, then tried to think of a way to get around Chaos' power field. After a few seconds of thinking, he got a brilliant idea.

"Filli Second, Rainbow Dash, I need you both to run all around Ponyville, and build up some static electricity," Raiden explained.

"Ok, but why?" Filli Second asked.

"I have an idea that requires your speed," Raiden explained. The two mares nodded, and began doing as the electric powered teenager had asked. In a few short minutes, electricity was building, "Ok Saddle Ranger, I'm going to focus the electricity at Chaos, that should give you a wide enough opening to attack," Raiden called, as he held up his hands and began emitting his own electricity, and fired it at Chaos, "Ok, you have your opening! Take it NOW!" he called, which Saddle Ranger complied. With just one buck, she was able to defeat Chaos.

"NOOO! CHAOS!" James cried, as he used a tractor beam to beam up the puddle that remained of Chaos, "Grr, be lucky that Chaos can only absorb the power of TWO elements at a time, but mark my words, I will be back!" James vowed, as he fled. Rainbow was about to go after him, but she was stopped by Mistress Mare-villous and her lasso.

"LET ME GO! I HAVE TO GO AND RESUE MY DAUGHTER!" Rainbow Dash snapped, trying to break free.

"And what would you do then? We need to be cautious about our approaches, now that we now we have more to worry about than those villains," Twilight explained.

"She makes a good point. I mean, If you tried anything brash, James might try to hurt your daughter and Serenity," Eris explained.

"And you are...?" Rainbow asked.

"Oh, right, I am Eris, goddess of chaos, and daughter of Discord," Eris said, introducing herself.

"Its nice to meet you Eris," Raiden said, but then, he looked at the draconequss curiously, "When you came into battle, you mentioned something about a 'Master Element'. What's that about?" he asked.

"Perhaps, we could exchange information over some lunch, I'm quite hungry," Eris suggested. This drew growls from everyone's stomachs, "He-he, ok, I'll make us something to eat. Can we head back to the castle?" Eris asked, which everyone nodded, and Twilight lead the group to her castle.

Author's Note

Here's chapter 6! So James has come back for revenge, eh? And he's got a Chaos creature working for him! :pinkiegasp: And poor Serenity and Vibrant have been swallowed up by the Chaos creature. :fluttercry: Will the titans, Power Ponies, and the remaining Elements of harmony stop James, and the villains? Stay tuned! Also, can you find the references in this chapter?

Chapter 7: Origins and a plan

As they headed back to the Castle of friendship, Humdrum was getting annoyed at the wait he was forced to endure, 'How long must I wait to hear my story?!' he thought to himself, as he accidently bumped into Matterhorn, "Oh, sorry Matterhorn, I was thinking about something," Humdrum apologized.

"Its alright Humdrum," Matterhorn reassured, as the group was lead into the castle, and to the dining room.

"Ok, take your seats, and your lunch will be along shortly," Eris said, as she snapped her eagle talon, and some platters appeared around the table. The ponies took their seats, and as they lifted the lids, they were all surprised to see their favorite dishes, "Well? Bon appetite," Eris said, as everyone dug in.

"So, lets review on what happened, what have we learned so far about the new threats?" Silver quizzed.

"We know what the Power Ponies' enemies can do," Heiru said.

"We know that my Daddy is somehow back in Equestria," Toby said.

"And he has a chaos creature working for him," Zap said.

"That thing can gobble up elements of harmony as if they're candy," Brian said.

"And when I first saw it, the Master Element was destroyed," Eris said.

"You mentioned this 'Master Element' before when you first showed up. What is the Master Element?" Twilight asked.

"You could say that the Master element is the father of the elements of harmony, the one that created them," Eris replied.

"Ok, so what does that have to do with you?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Well, it all began 1000 years ago, when my father, Discord, was imprison in stone for his reign of chaos. I was different from Daddy, in terms of personality, where he was mischievous, I was a very playful and kind draconequss. The two regal sisters decided to spare me from the same fate that daddy took, provided I guard the Master Element, hidden deep under the Tree of Harmony," Eris explained.

"Wait, so Discord was evil?" Silver asked.

"He was, but I was able to reform him, so that he could use his magic for good instead of evil," Fluttershy replied.

"OK, BUT IF THIS 'MASTER ELEMENT' IS UNDER SOME SORT OF TREE, THEN WHY AREN'T YOU THERE GUARDING IT ANYMORE?" Echo-Echo asked.

"Because, it was destroyed when I first saw the Chaos creature," Eris replied. "I was guarding the Master Element as usual, when a huge explosion woke me up. And there, at the Master Elements alter, was that Chaos creature," Eris explained, "I went to go and try to save the Master Element, but it was too late. It was in pieces, and the creature warped away," Eris explained further, "But that was when the real trouble began. I noticed that some of the plants began to slowly wither away, and that's when I knew that the magic of the Master Element was beginning to fade away," Eris finished.

"I see, so we have to find what's left of the Master Element, in hopes of keeping Equestrias magic from deteriorating indefinitely?" Raiden asked.

"Yeah, but finding the shards will be like finding a needle in a haystack," Eris replied.

"Then that's what we'll do!" Silver said.

"But wait, we need to go and find our enemies, and stop whatever it is they're planning first," Matterhorn explained.

"And we need to keep the remaining Elements of Harmony safe," Twilight explained.

"Not to mention, find Toby's jerk of a father and stop him, and the Chaos creature," Rainbow Dash said.

"Alright, the leaders of each group will meet, and discuss what will happen," Twilight said, as she lead Silver, Matterhorn, and Discord into another room.

"So, I guess its time we told you about where you came from Humdrum," Radiance said, looking at the young colt, "Well, it all began on night, when we were off duty from patrolling the city for any crime," she explained.

"We were all just lounging around, when we heard a knock form our front door," Zap joined in.

"When Matterhorn came back, we were all surprised to see a young foal in the basket," Filli Second said.

"And that foal was me?" Humdrum asked.

"Yes, and you had a note attached to you, saying, 'Please take care of my baby, since I can not take care of him my self. His name is Humdrum'," Saddle Ranger explained.

"Knowing we couldn't just let you go to some orphanage, we decided to try and look for your real mother, but after a month of searching, we decided that you should stay with us, and be a hero, just like us," Mistress Marvelous added on.

"But you guys never found my real Mommy?" Humdrum asked, which resulted in a round of sad shakes from his teammates.

"But, what brought all this on?" Saddle Ranger asked.

"Well, as Shadow Mane fell towards me, I saw a mare, none of you girls though, reaching to pick me up," Humdrum explained, which put looks of shock on his friends faces.

"You know, before they teleported away, I saw a worried look on Shadow Manes face, so its possible she knows something as well," Heiru commented.

"So, we need to find Shadow Mane, so she can tell us about her side of the story," Zap said. Just then, the leaders came back.

"Alright, we've figured out something," Twilight said.

"We have decided that we need to divide and conquer," Silver said.

"So here's the plan, Saddle Ranger, Mistress Marvelous, Brian and Francisco will guard two of the remaining Elements of Harmony, Filli Second, Eris, Stealth and Raiden will hunt for the shards of the Master Element, Echo-Echo, Rainbow Dash, Zap, and Silver will try to find James' base, and the rest of us will hunt down the Mane-iac and the others, while Discord will stay behind with Fluttershy and Rarity to look after the children," Matterhorn explained, which everyone nodded in understanding.

"But before you guys go and do your tasks, we should probably prepare for a long battle," Francisco suggested, which everyone nodded, "OK Mr. Writer, take us to the next scene," Francisco asked, which resulted in this.

"NOOO! The OTHER scene! Am I working alone here?!" Francisco demanded, which resulted in a cave lair, with all sorts of different stuff, like a movie theater, an arcade, and a bunch of other stuff.

"Where are we?" Twilight asked.

"The titan Lair. I built it from scratch this morning, in a remote cave underneath Ponyville," Francisco explained.

"There are caves under Ponyville?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Yeah, so, I decided to use this abandoned one for our living establishment," Francisco explained, as he led Silver and Echo-Echo to a small chamber, "And this is what you two will need for your mission," he said, as he opened the door, to reveal some jet planes.

"Uh, they're nice Francisco, but we don't exactly have our pilots licenses," Silver explained.

"Don't worry, they're easy to fly. In fact, you need to use your mind to fly them," Francisco explained.

"Ok, so I guess we can use them," Silver said, as he and Echo-Echo got into their seats, "Alright guys, if anything happens, just call us, and we'll come to help," he said, which the other titans nodded in understanding, as everyone left to take care of their own assignments.

Later, with Eris' group,

After splitting up to take care of their task, Eris and her group decided to investigate Las Pegasus first, "Its best to check the more unlikely places first, just to be safe," Raiden said, as the group came to the outside of a Casino, but the outside was destroyed, "Excuse us, but do you know what happened officer?" Raiden asked a police pony.

"Uh, yeah, witnesses say that some glowing rock crashed into that building," the officer said.

"WHAT?! Did they say what it was?!" Eris demanded, taking the officer by his shirt.

Leading the group inside the building, the officer took the group to where some investigators were examining the rock that fell from the sky, "That's it, right there," the officer said, pointing at a red crystal.

"That's it, one of the shards we're looking for," Eris said, walking over to the gem, and opening her eagle talon, and like magic, the crystal floated out of the crater, and into her talon. This drew gasps from everyone. She smiled at her prize, but then she frowned, as a vision entered her mind. When she opened her eyes, she saw that she was outside a castle of some sort, 'That's strange, this looks like the castle of the two sisters, but the building should be ancient. Why does it look brand new?' she thought to herself, as she made her way towards the castle. Once she was close enough, she could see some warrior ponies standing in front of a young mare.

"Father, you must listen to me, we shouldn't seize the elements for ourselves!" the mare said.

"Jewel Rush, the clan needs those six elements to make ourselves strong, in order to protect ourselves from our enemies," the leader of the warriors said.

"Seizing the elements for our own selfish needs and bringing harm to others is wrong!" Jewel Rush protested, as a flash of light engulfed Eris again. Opening her eyes, she found herself back inside the Casino.

"You ok Eris?" Stealth asked.

"Yeah, I'm ok," Eris replied.

"Seeing as how there wasn't a crime, we won't need that rock as evidence, now will we?" the officer asked.

"No, we won't," another officer replied.

"If any of you find any more shards like this, let me know," Eris told them, which they nodded, as Eris led her group out of the casino, in search of more shards, 'I wasn't able to stop the Master Element from being destroyed, but I can gather what's left of it, along with my new friends,' Eris thought to herself.

Meanwhile, with Brian's group,

After leaving to keep Lucky Joy and Charity harder to locate, Brian, Francisco, Saddle Ranger, and Mistress Marevelous, along with Pinkie Pie and Rarity, all decided to take the fillies somewhere scenic, and quiet, so that lead them to a rocky valley, "So, why bring us here?" Rarity asked.

"I figured that the rocky terrain will make us harder to be found," Francisco replied, just as a strong wind blew, "GAH! But it appears I underestimated the skyscraper currents around here," he commented.

"Skyscraper currents?" Lucky Joy asked.

"The tall a building or formation is, the stronger the winds are," Francisco replied, as another powerful gust blew.

"But why leave the other children behind in the Titan Lair?" Pinkie asked.

"To keep them safe, plus, with the home theater, they can watch some movies and/or TV shows," Brian replied, before another, yet more powerful gust of wind blew, "Ugh, the winds picking up!" he complained. Just then, the wind swept Lucky and Charity away from their group.

"Lucky Joy!" Pinkie cried.

"Charity!" Rarity cried, as both mothers rushed over to comfort their daughters. Just as they were a few inches from the fillies, their daughters were scooped up by a big claw. Looking up, they could see James in his hovercraft.

"Why thank you for the elements, I'm sure Chaos will just love a little snack, two of them, in fact," James cruelly said.

"Why don't you get out of Equestria, and leave us alone?!" Pinkie snarled.

"Not until I take back my son," James said, as he flew away.

"I don't think so!" Brian yelled, rushing towards the craft, and jumping onto it, "Now give back Lucky Joy and Charity!" he demanded.

"How about this instead?" James taunted, as he activated his crafts drill systems, and charged to the ground, knocking Brian off, "Now then, to make sure you don't interfere any more," James said, as he then charged towards Brian, only to be stopped by an angered Saddle Ranger, who broke the drills off, "Grr, how dare you?!" James snarled, as the hulking monster pony threw James back, also knocking Lucky Joy and Charity out of the craft, and into a pond. Upon entering the water, there was an eerie glow from under the surface, which made our heroes shudder with uneasiness, "Its ok, you can come on out now, Chaos four!" James called. And with that, the Chaos creature emerged from the water, now larger that it was before, taking on the shape of a fish, with a large stone like skeleton with the new addition of the elements of laughter and generosity. The heroes gasped in horror.

With a wave of its hand, it sent a wave of energy that sent the heroes flying, "Man, this thing is tough!" Brian cursed, as he, Francisco, Saddle Ranger and Marevelous went on the attack, prompting Chaos to dive under water, "Alright, where'd it go?" Brian asked, as he and the others landed on lily pads. Just then, Chaos emerged from the lily pad Brian was standing on, sending him flying. Once at the peak of his ascent, Brian then charged towards Chaos in the form of a fireball. Once Chaos saw this, it dove back in the water, with Brian latching onto its tail.

"Dunk that little punk until he's all washed up," James ordered, which Chaos complied, constantly jumping out of the water, trying to shake Brian off of it. The others tried to slow Chaos, with Marevelous trying to lasso Chaos, so it won't escape, Francisco trying to take after Icezer in the ability to freeze, and try to stop Chaos dead in its tracks, and Saddle Ranger, who tried to stir up enough water to make it harder for Chaos to concentrate. These attempts were all for naught. As Chaos jumped out of the water, a powerful gust of wind blew, which gave Brian an idea.

"That's it, I'll ride the wind!" Brian said, as he let go of Chaos, and rode the wind to pick up a strong velocity, while engulfed in a fireball, which dove right at Chaos, who tried blowing the others away, but didn't notice Brian, as he tackled the head, ultimately making Chaos dissolve into little droplets of water, much to the dismay of James, who used a tractor beam to gather up what was left of Chaos.

"You got lucky this time, but mark my words, I will have my revenge!" James said, as he escaped into a huge flying fortress.

"Whoa, that thing's enormous!" Francisco commented, as it flew away.

"Silver, come in Silver, this is Brian. James has now obtained the elements of laughter and generosity, and is making a run for it in a large flying fortress!" Brian said, taking into a communicator.

"*BZZT* 10-4, I copy. My group will hunt and pursue," Silver said.

"We'll join you shortly!" Francisco called, as he formed two more jet planes, which everyone got in, and flew off to stop James' ship.

Chapter 9: Attack the Flying fortess (again)

After leaving to go and work on the jets, Francisco was just pondering what'll happen if they do fail to protect Trinity, and Season Harvest, if they're not to late, "Lets hope this modification works the way I need it to," Francisco said to him self, as the magenta jewel in his headband started glowing, as the jets were glowing the same color as well, "There, that should do it," he said, as he left to go and find his brothers.

In the Titan Lair lounge, the children were all contemplating on how they can help with the situation, while the adults and the other present titans were waiting for Francisco to come back. And the wait wasn't long, as they saw the spacial teen coming towards them, "Alright guys, the jets are ship shape, and ready to go!" Francisco said, as he led them back to the hanger.

"Kids, listen to me, I want all of you to stay here in Ponyville while we go and rescue Toby and the other elements of harmony," Twilight said in a soft yet serious manner, which everyone nodded in understanding. Twilight then continued to follow the others to the hanger. Upon entering the hanger, a look of confusion was etched on everyone's faces.

"Uh, Francisco, what is the modification?" Silver asked.

"I added a fighter mode to the jets. Just pull the red lever to have the jets change modes. I also added some extra seats for whoever is coming with us," Francisco explained.

"Well, I'd better come with, and help look for Toby and Season Harvest," Fluttershy said.

"I'm coming with for sure!" Rainbow Dash said.

"I'll tag along as well," Twilight said, raising her hoof.

"Ah ain't gonna let that monster of a father of Toby's bring anymore harm to him or mah daughter!" Applejack said with determination.

"I'm afraid I will have to sit this one out. Someone has to watch the children," Rarity said.

"And we'll come as well. Our enemies might be working with James," Matterhorn said, as she and her teammates stepped forward.

"I would come too, but someone else besides Rarity should stay behind to watch the children," Discord said.

"Alright, and we should pick up Eris and the others if we see them along the way," Silver said, which everyone nodded in agreement, as they got into their own different jets, with the Pegasi waiting outside the hanger. As soon as the jets were out of the hanger, they all took off.

"I hope Francisco will be alright," Kelly commented.

"Like I said, my big bwothers are all wewwy stwong!" Heaven reassured.

"I hope you're right Heaven," Discord said uneasily. as they all retreated back into the cave lair.

Back in the skies,

"You really shouldn't try to take on James so soon Francisco," Radiance said.

"I feel fine! I can take care of myself," Francisco reassured.

"Even so, I feel you should be back at the lair, resting, even if you're tough," Brian said.

"Yeah, but we're a team! We have a better chance of stopping James if we all work together!" Francisco argued.

"Francisco is right, we do have a better chance if we work together," Silver said, which everyone nodded in agreement, and continued to try to find the Mane Carrier.

In a deep ravine,

As they continued to search for the remaining fragments of the Master Element, Eris and her group looked up to see a large battleship flying over head, "What's that thing?" Filli Second asked.

"From what Silver told me on the radio, that's James' battleship," Raiden replied, as some jets came down in front of the group.

"Hey guys, need a lift?" Silver asked.

"Uh, sure!" Raiden replied, as the group hopped into the jets, and took off for the Mane Carrier.

Inside the Mane Carrier, where Alpha had returned,

After taking Toby and Season from the Titan Lair, Alpha was able to make it safely back into the Mane Carrier docking bay. As he levitated down onto the floor, he dropped both the boy and the filly onto the floor. Standing back up on their feet and hooves, Toby and Season looked around, trying to find out where they were.

"Where do ya reckon we're at?" Season Harvest asked.

"I don't know, some sort of robotic base, perhaps?" Toby suggested with a shrug.

"Quite right, son," they turned to see James coming towards them with a smug smirk on his face.

"D-daddy, what do you want from us?" Toby asked, backing up.

Scowling at his son, James then grabbed Toby by the arm, "With you, you're coming back with me to Earth, so I can toughen you up! And as for her," James said, glaring daggers at Season, "I plan on using her as a part of my ultimate revenge against this pitiful land," James replied.

"No Daddy, I don't want to go back with you! I love my life here in Equestria!" Toby said, as he struggled in getting out of his fathers grip.

"Let go of him!" Season demanded, bucking James in the knee, causing him to let go of Toby out of pain. Season was quick enough to break Toby's fall, "You ok Toby?" she asked.

"Yeah, thanks Season," Toby replied.

"GAH, alright, NOW I'm mad!" James said, as he grabbed Toby once again, but more roughly, "Alpha, take the horse to the brig, I will deal with her shortly," James ordered, which the robot complied, taking Season by her legs, and dragging her off in the opposite direction of where James was heading with Toby, "And as for YOU, you're going to come with me to the bridge, and watch my conquest of this land, along with some friends I made while I was here," James said cruelly, taking Toby towards the bridge.

Outside the Mane Carrier,

"Alright, lets get to work, we first blast those turrets out of commission, and give ourselves a large enough opening to go in," Silver said to the other jets.

"ROGER THAT!" the others called.

"Ready? OPEN FIRE!" Silver called, as the jets started blasting the Mane Carrier with more force than before.

Back on the bridge,

As the villains continued to supervise operations on the bridge, they felt a large jerk, "GAH! What was that?!" High Heel asked, as she and the others tried to regain their bearings.

"Its those jets from before! They're back!" one of the mummy minions said.

"WHAT!? Well, don't just sit there, BLAST THEM OUT OF THE SKIES AGAIN!" the Pharaoh ordered, which the mummies complied, firing all the turrets they had.

Back with our heroes,

"Alright, here come the bullets!" Silver said, as they all scattered.

"Launch the missiles!" Francisco called, as each jet launched a barrage of rockets at the turrets, blasting all the turrets to dust.

"Ok, they've come prepared this time," Long Face said uneasily, as he looked at the monitors.

"Don't worry, I built one other weapon into the Mane Carrier," they turned to see James with Toby with his arms in James hands, "Pharaoh, can you tell your minions to transform the Mane Carrier?" James asked.

"You heard him minions, TRANSFORM THE MANE CARRIER INTO BATTLE MODE!" the Pharaoh ordered, which the minions complied, and with the push of some buttons, the entire Mane Carrier transformed.

As the titans continued to blast the Mane Carrier, the Mane Carrier transformed, now appearing to have rocket launchers under its wings, and it unveiled a large cannon like piece from the front of the ship, "Alright, I'm ready for this," Francisco said, as he remembered what had happened to him and his brothers earlier. Just then, they all noticed the cannon was beginning to charge up for a large blast, "Alright guys, it will take a few seconds for battle armor mode to activate, so go ahead and pull the red levers now!" Francisco said, which the other nodded in understanding, as they all pulled a red lever. And just as Francisco predicted, the jets began glowing.

"FIRE THE CANNON!" James ordered, which had a large energy blast fired towards the jets, which were able dodge just in time. When they came back, the jets had transformed, giving them the appearance of having arms.

"Alright! Battle armor mode works like a charm!" Francisco said, as he and the other went back to keep on the attack.

"How dare they?! Fire rockets!" James ordered, and just like that, rockets were flying towards the jets.

"Look out guys!" Rainbow Dash called.

"Don't worry, now if we time it just right," Francisco said, just as one of the arms of the jets grew a spike out of the wrist, similar to a shield, ad blocked the rockets.

"Ha, cool!" the others commented, just as a rather sharper blade came out of the other wrists, and sliced each of the rockets.

"Alright, how do ya like me now James? C'mon tough guy, I'm ready for ya!" Francisco taunted, before hearing tapping on his jets glass cover.

"Cool it Francis, lets not make thing worse than they already are," Stealth told him.

"Heh, I guess I was getting a tad over confident right there, wasn't I?" Francisco asked, rubbing the back of his head.

"They're coming in for a landing!" Mane-iac said.

"Well, lets give them a warm welcome," James said, as some of the mummies pressed some buttons, which released some fireworks, and an animatronic cheerleading squad and a conductor, with a banner that said 'WELCOME' on it.

"Who could ask for a warmer welcome than that?" a mummy said, as the villains and Toby just facehoofed/palmed.

"You ninnies! James was being sarcastic!" the Pharaoh yelled.

As they finished slashing through the rockets, the jets all came in closer to the Mane Carrier, "Alright! Hey Francisco?" Silver asked.

"Yeah?" the spacial teen asked.

"How do we land these things?" Silver asked.

Francisco's eyes widened in realization, "GAH, OH NO!" he cried.

"What's wrong?" Raiden asked.

"We'll have to settle for a nice and bumpy landing, I forgot to put in landing gear for battle armor mode!" Francisco replied.

"WHAT?!" everyone cried, as they all crash landed on the battleships deck.

Chapter 10: Mane Carrier infiltrated! Save Toby and the elements of harmony!

After making a crash landing on the Mane Carrier, our heroes quickly recovered from the crashes, "You guys alright?" Rainbow Dash called, as she and the other pegasi landed in front of the group.

"Yeah, we're all ok, so lets get on with the attack!" Silver said, as he and the others ran towards the ship, with Filli Second rocketing past them.

"Ok, so now that they're attacking the Mane Carrier, we need to launch a counter strike! Make it snappy," James ordered, as the mummies launched a barrage of rockets at Filli Second, who was too fast for them to hit her, as she turned back around, and ran back towards her team.

"She's turning back around!" Brian called, as Filli Second stopped in front of them.

"Francisco, are you sure you'll be ok?" Filli Second asked.

"Yeah!" Francisco replied, tearing of his bandages, and following his group, just as a rocket just barely missed Filli Second, opening a hole into the ground.

"You guys go on ahead, I'll go and look for the last of the Master Element!" Eris said, as she dropped into the hole.

"Eris," Raiden said, before being stopped by Silver.

"Let her go, she has her own task," Silver explained, as everyone continued towards the bridge.

"Grr, persistent little whelps. No matter, I have a back up solution," James said, as he walked over to a control panel, "Oh Gamma! Report to the control deck immediately, I have a job for you," James said, which activated a large red robot.

"Alright, but when you made those other four robots, I don't see why we needed the Nightmare Moon filly," High Heel said.

"Because we need the essence of a powerful pony, and the adult alicorns won't just hand over their powers, so I built those four to find an alicorn filly," James said, as he went into a flashback.

"I'm sensing a flashback now," Long Face said.

*Flashback*

In the Mane Carrier conference room, James was standing on top of a large stage, in front of four robots, one black, one orange, one blue, and one red, "Attention, my marvelous J-Series robots, if you would turn your attention to the screen behind me, you will notice a very peculiar alicorn filly. Unlike most horses, this one is sporting very unusual reptilian eyes. Your mission is to find and bring back this filly, do I make my self clear?" James asked, as a picture of Nyx appeared on the screen behind him.

"YES MASTER!" the four robots chorused.

"Then go now, and don't fail me!" James ordered, as the robots all left.

Thirty minutes later,

"My filly is the real one!" the orange robot said, holding up a whimpering black unicorn filly.

"No mine is!" the black robot said, holding a black earth filly.

"No, mine is the real filly!" the blue one argued, holding a black Pegasus filly.

"James will be so proud," the red one said, holding Nyx, who was struggling to get out.

"Pipe down, James is approaching!" Long Face ordered.

"He will decided if your fillies are the real one he needs," High Heel said.

"Ah, excellent work boys, now then, lets have a look at these fillies," James said, as he looked at the eyes of the one the orange and blue robots had, and frowned, "WHAT?! YOU DARE BRING THESE SIMPLE FILLIES!?" James demanded, as he walked over to the black robot, "GRR, NO, NO, NO! GAH! YOU CLANKING CLODS! This isn't the filly I wanted! Do any of them have snake like eyes?! You should be lucky I don't turn you all into scrap metal!" James yelled, causing the fillies to cower under his aggressive voice.

"Sorry," the black robot said, which only angered James even more.

"Now listen up! I am not looking for any old black horse! I am looking for a very special one, with eyes that are like a reptile!" James yelled, before seeing the filly Gamma had, "Uh, what? Yes, that's the one! That's my little Nightmare filly! I knew you would do me proud Gamma!" James said, commending his robot.

"Thank you!" Gamma replied, as James laughed evilly again, before glaring at the other robots and fillies, who all had anime sweat marks coming off of them.

"You're all useless to me! Long Face! Go ahead and destroy the robots except for Gamma, and release the other fillies except for the one he brought us!" James said, as a button appeared before the joyless Pegasus.

"With pleasure," Long Face said, pushing the button, as the other robots were transported out of the conference room, while the fillies were forced into escape capsules, and fired out of the battleship.

"I guess if you have to go, those are the best ways," High Heel said.

"No thanks, if I were a robot, I would want to rust away," Long Face argued.

"Gamma, go ahead and take this filly to the brig, I'll send for you when I need her, as well as that other one," James said.

"Yes sir," Gamma said, as he took Nyx away.

*end of flashback*

"Does that make sense now?" James asked, which the unicorn nodded in understanding.

Meanwhile, elsewhere on the Mane Carrier,

"Josh, are you sure this is the way?" Kelly asked, as she, her brother, and sister all infiltrated the Mane Carrier in search of Nyx.

"I'm sure the big robot hid Nyx down here somewhere," Josh replied.

"I hope your right," Crystal said uneasily, just as Gamma walked by, with Nyx in his arms, startling the three kids. Nyx took notice of her little brother and sisters, and was about to say something, when Josh put a finger up to his mouth, as a signal for her to be quiet. Nyx nodded, as the three siblings carefully tiptoed behind Gamma. After awhile, Gamma went into a room, which the three kids carefully snuck inside, and hid behind some crates, waiting for Gamma to leave. After leaving Nyx in a jail cell with Season Harvest, Gamma left.

"Josh, Kelly, Crystal, what're you guys doing here?!" Nyx asked hysterically, but was still happy to see that her siblings followed after her.

"We're here to rescue you," Josh replied, as he pushed some boxes up to the control panel, and with a press of the release button, the bars fell, and Nyx and Season Harvest were free, "Now lets get out of here, before that robot comes back!" Josh said, as he and the girls left the room, and tried to make their way to the deck, only to be stopped by the same robot.

"Stop! You two fillies will return to your cell, along with these other organics!" Gamma said.

"No way!" Josh protested.

"You must! Master James commands it!" Gamma argued.

"Well, he can't make us!" Nyx argued.

"Master James Commands it! Master James commands it!" Gamma protested.

"Now look here! We aren't scared of Toby's real daddy!" Kelly said.

"You are not afraid?" Gamma asked, in a surprised tone.

"That's right, and even if we were, we still wouldn't do it!" Season replied.

"Look, we know you have a job to do, but we'd appreciate it if you let us by," Crystal said.

"No! Not possible!" Gamma protested.

"But why not? Just because you were programmed to be bad doesn't mean you have to be," Josh said.

"...OVERLOAD! OVERLOAD!" Gamma cried, grabbing ahold of his head in pain.

"Is something wrong with him?" Nyx asked.

Letting go of his head, Gamma turned to the children, "Go now!" he said, stepping out of their way.

"Thanks so much!" Kelly said, as she and the others ran past Gamma.

"Bye mister robot!" they all rang.

"Bye," Gamma said.

After saying farewell to Gamma, the children soon found themselves on the deck of the Mane Carrier, "Alright, so where do we go from here?" Kelly asked.

"FREEZE!" the children jumped when they saw the enemies of the Power Ponies, all standing before them.

"We got you now!" Mane-iac said, as she and her friends went to seize the children, but they all jumped back when they saw Kelly holding an oversized hammer.

"Now don't you readers at home ask how Kelly got a hammer," Josh said.

"BACK OFF!" Kelly demanded.

"Now, lets not do anything irrational!" the Pharaoh pleaded.

"Please calm down," High Heel begged.

Kelly was about to swing the hammer, when she was stopped by James, "Now then, that wouldn't be very nice, now would it?" he asked tauntingly.

"Well you're no better, ganging up on a group of kids like that, what kind of a man would do that?" they all turned to see the Power Ponies, the Mane Six, and the titans all sitting on top of where the kids came from, looking down at the villains and the children.

"Mommy, we can explain why we're here!" Josh said.

"Don't worry Josh, there'll be time for explanations later," Twilight reassured, as she and the others dropped down.

"Now then, I shall ask only once more, back off," Raiden demanded with a glare. While she was distracted, Season let a yelp as she was hoisted into the air by one of the strands of hair of the Mane-iac.

"SEASON!" Applejack cried, bashing away James and the villains, but wasn't fast enough to catch the crazy mare, as she jumped away.

"Ah, ah, ah, we wouldn't want to do anything rash now would we?" the crazed mare taunted.

"I have another surprise for you," James said, pulling out a small communicator, "Oh Gamma, please report to the control deck immediately," he said. After a few minutes, the same robot from before came through the doorway.

"You called Master?" Gamma asked.

"Yes, I would like for you to destroy these pests, but leave the Nightmare filly, we still have need for her," James commanded.

"Alright, we could use a bit of practice," Silver said, as he and the others geared up for a fight.

"WAIT! He's not a bad robot! He helped us escape!" Kelly said, trying to reason with the adults. This however, did nothing to keep Gamma from firing at the adults. Upon being fired at, the adults and the titans scattered, with Gamma trying to blast them. Gamma decided to try and stop Filli Second, as she's the fastest. Filli Second was able to lead Gamma away from the group, albeit still being fired at. But as soon as Gamma blasted some rubble up, the supersonic mare was able to leap from rock to rock, before kicking a large piece directly at Gamma. Once Gamma was pinned down, the others rushed to finish him off, only to be stopped by the children, including Toby, who snuck away from his father while he wasn't looking.

"Mommy! Stop this now!" Kelly begged.

"Kelly, Josh, Crystal, I love you three, but I need to ask you to step aside," Twilight asked, softly yet sternly.

"No, this robot helped us escape. He's our friend!" Crystal argued, with a convincing look in her eyes.

"Alright, if you say so," Twilight said with a shrug. Just then, the group all felt a hard jerk.

"What was that?!" Kelly asked, holding onto her siblings for dear life.

"I think the ship is loosing altitude!" Raiden said, turning towards the Power Ponies, "Power Ponies, take Twilight and her friends and get out of here!" he instructed the superhero ponies.

"But what about you boys?" Fluttershy asked.

"We'll stay behind and try and find and stop James' evil plans. We already rescued Toby, but someone has to stay and save the elements of harmony," Silver explained, as he and his brothers left to find James.

"Mr. Robot?" Kelly asked, as she and the other knelt down to see if Gamma was awake. Upon hearing the little girls voice, the eyes of Gamma flashed, and he woke up, "Oh thank goodness you're alright," Kelly said, breathing a sigh of relief.

"You saved my life?" Gamma asked.

"Of coarse, it was the least we could do," Josh said, just as the adults grabbed the children, save for Nyx, who was soon captured by one of James' claw machines, "NYX!" Josh cried, but couldn't get to her, because of the magic grip of his mother.

"I wouldn't do anything brash now if I were you, not unless you want the Nightmare filly to be destroyed," James said, which discouraged any of the heroes from coming near him.

"But why are you kidnapping Nyx? She's not an element of harmony," Twilight asked.

"Yes, but she's an alicorn, so I suggest none of you try anything hasty, unless you want to see her get hurt," James said, which forced the heroes to stand down.

"Don't worry Nyx, we'll save you, somehow," Twilight reassured, which Nyx softly nodded.

"That's good of you all to do, now get out of here! While I try and find that brat of a son of mine!" James yelled, which the heroes complied reluctantly, and left the mane carrier, "Now then, lets go and introduce you to Chaos," James said, carry Nyx away.

Meanwhile elsewhere on the mane carrier,

"Oww!" Eris cried, rubbing her head, "Something's going on, but I managed to find the last of the master element, so I'm out of here!" Eris said, as she carefully made her way down the hall. A little ways down the hall, she saw a ball of red light, flying towards her. Once it was close enough, it engulfed Eris in a flash of light. Opening her eyes, Eris saw she was out side a burning temple, where at the base, she saw the same mare from before, on the ground, with a bunch of the same fairy ponies, all laying unconscious. Eris then rushed over to see if any of them were ok.

Once she was close enough, she could see the mare stand up slowly, and looked in the direction of the female Draconequss, "I tried to stop them, but my father just would not listen," the mare explained, as she stood up, and looked around at the Breezies that lay unconscious, "No, I have to stop this now!" the mare said, running towards the shrine, just as Eris was engulfed by the same light.

Opening her eyes again, Eris found herself back in the Mane Carrier, where she was last, "What was that? There has to be a reason I'm being shown these images," she questioned, as she continued to find a way out of the battleship.

Chapter 11: Defeat Chaos Five! A dangerous history lesson

After taking Nyx away, James made his way to the larger section of the Mane Carrier deck. And just as he got to a large arena ring, Chaos four emerged from out of nowhere, "Ah, Chaos, I have a surprise for you, two in fact," James smiled cruelly as he brought out Season Harvest, "A new element of harmony for you dinner," James said, as he threw the earth filly at the water monster, who absorbed Season just as she touched the surface of the monster. Chaos now had the appearance of a large tick like creature, with a giant rock that had the other elements of harmony in it, "Ooh, how interesting. Now Chaos, I know you had a big lunch, but I hope you saved room for dessert, because you're having the essence of an alicorn for dessert," James said, as he brought out Nyx, and threw her into Chaos' mouth, which now gave a misty mane like substance coming from its head, "Huh, wasn't expecting that, but according to this, your power is still climbing, nonetheless," James said, just as he looked around for Toby, "What the..?! Where's that brat?!" James yelled, just as an explosion came from the bridge, "Its those teenagers!" James yelled, as they came closer.

"Holy cow, that's Nyx in there!" Silver said.

"AND SEASON HARVEST WAS FED TO IT TOO," Echo-Echo said.

"Well Chaos, want to have some fun with your new power?" James asked, as Chaos slapped down the titans with some tentacles.

"Oof, Chaos is getting stronger!" Brian said, as he tried charging Chaos in a large fireball, only to be smacked away effortlessly, as were the others, as they were slammed with water tentacles. They thought they were about to be struck again, but they looked up to see Eris holding the tentacle.

"You boys need some help?" she asked.

"Yeah, but how do you propose we beat this thing?" Raiden asked.

"Well, I don't sharpen my talons just for them to look pretty," Eris replied.

"Ok, but you'd better watch yourself, because Chaos could suck up that talon in an instant," Silver warned.

"Alright, but we need to find the weak point," Eris said, looking at Chaos.

"Hey guys, see what I see?" Heiru asked, pointing at the brain of Chaos, which everyone caught on in an instant. They soon put the plan into action, as they charged at Chaos, which Eris was able to claw at, giving the titans an opening, which they seized. Silver threw a ball of condensed psychic energy, Brian threw a fireball, Icezer chucked a spear of ice, Heiru blasted the brain with a concentrated ghost beam, Francis tore a rift in the fabric of reality, Stealth gathered and threw a ball of natural energy, Echo-Echo let out a blast of sound, and Raiden copied Icezers maneuver with a bolt of lightning. All their attacks collided with the brain, ultimately disintegrating Chaos, and freeing the elements of harmony and Nyx.

"That's strange, the Elements should've reverted back to their filly forms by now," Eris said, holding up the element of Honesty.

"Hey Nyx, you ok?" Brian asked, kneeling down to the black filly.

"*Cough* Yeah, I'll be fine," Nyx replied, looking up at the fiery teenager.

"Hold on, where's James?" Silver asked, looking around, as the others did too. They then saw James using some oars to paddle his way off the Mane Carrier in his hovercraft, with the other villains carrying some bags following him.

"Hey, wait for us!" High Heel called.

"Where do you guys think you're going?" Icezer asked.

"None of your beeswax," James snapped. This prompted the titans to charge at his hovercraft, and fight him for control of the craft, which ultimately had them falling off the Mane Carrier, with the villains following after them via parachute, with the exception of Long Face, who just flew down.

"What about us?" Nyx asked.

"Well, according to the author, this is where its my turn to break the fourth wall," Eris replied, reaching up, and tearing the background off, which had them back in the Titan Lair, in front of a bunch of very surprised children, along with Rarity and Discord.

"Welcome back sweetheart," Discord said, looking at his daughter.

"Hey daddy, you'll all be happy to know that James' fortress has been destroyed, and we recovered the elements of harmony," Eris said.

"But where is my daughter?" Rarity asked.

"That's the strange part, we defeated Chaos, but the elements never reverted back into pony form," Eris replied.

"Hmm, something must be keeping them from doing so," Discord said.

"Well, I'll look into it when I get back to the master Elements alter, seeing as how I've also got the last pieces of it," Eris said, turning to leave.

Back with the titans,

After fighting for control of James' hovercraft, the titans found themselves with their heads in the ground, literally. They soon tried to get themselves out of the ground, with Heiru being the first, but he couldn't get to the others, as they all got themselves free themselves, "Oof, that'll be the last time we hitch a ride with James," Silver said, as he and the other looked around to see where they were. They saw that they were in the middle of a forest. They began to walk, trying to find away out. After a while, they came across an ancient building. They soon saw a ball of red light flying towards the building, so they decided to follow it.

Once inside, with light produced by Brian, they made their way to the heart of the temple, not noticing a bunch of fairy ponies watching them with worried looks on their faces. After awhile, they soon found themselves in the final room of the temple, with a picture of a giant monster, "A sea monster? Kind of creepy if you ask me," Icezer commented.

"When anger and fear collide like a mighty ocean, beware the great calamity," the titans jumped when they heard a voice.

"Is someone there?" Raiden asked.

"C'mon out, we won't hurt you," Heiru reassured, just as they were all engulfed in a ball of light. Opening their eyes, they saw that they were outside a temple, which was on fire.

"It the same temple," Raiden commented.

"You've been here before?" Silver asked.

"Yeah, when we found some of the pieces of the Master Element, we were shown a temple like this, but it wasn't on fire," Stealth replied.

"Hey, someone's up at the summit!" Icezer said, pointing at the alter, where a mare was laying, holding some of the fairy ponies. The titans al ran to see if the mare was hurt.

"Hey, are you alright?" Silver asked.

"I tried to stop them, but there were too many of them," The mare replied, holding the Breezy in her hooves closer, "Oh father, why didn't you listen to me?!" she cried, just as she and the titans all heard a roar coming from beyond the alter, "No, I won't allow this destruction to proceed any further!" the mare declared, as she rushed towards the Master Element, just as the titans were all engulfed in the same light from before.

Opening their eyes once more, the titans found themselves outside the same temple they had entered earlier, "Whoa, that was weird," Brian commented.

"BUT IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN A DREAM, COULD IT?" Echo-Echo asked, just as they saw James flying past them.

"James! What's that fathead floating around here for?" Silver asked, as he and his brothers all chased after him. After awhile of running, they soon found themselves outside a large cave, where they saw James fly into, "So that's James' base eh? Lets go in," Silver said, as he used his telekinesis to crumple the steel door like paper, and with that they entered, also setting off the alarm.

"Grr, those teenagers have no sense of manners, but I'll fix that," James said from his control room.

The titans then proceeded to try and find James, running past lasers, and even trying to outrun a giant boulder in a long hallway with a rolling floor. After breaking through the door that was at the end of the hall, the titans then rounded a corner, where a small black fairy pony with green eyes and a silver mane jumped out, startling the boys, "Ha, I scared you, I scared you!" the little fairy sang tauntingly.

"With sneakiness like that, you'd scare anyone," Stealth commented.

"I've got a super important message from Master James himself, so you'd better listen up if you now what's good for ya!" the fairy said, pulling out a small TV. Turning it on, James' face then appeared.

"Alright you brats, I think the time has come for a man to teenager showdown. My assistant Shadow Tech will show you the way. Make it snappy!" James ordered.

"Ooh, why do I have to do everything around here?!" Shadow Tech demanded, as he flew away, leading the titans to where James was waiting in a giant robot serpent like robot.

"Alright James, this had better not be another trick!" Raiden warned.

"I'm through with tricks for today. Now all I wanted to do was to bring my son back home, but you boys and those horses have all been thorns in my side ever since I came back for revenge, so now it all ends here," James said as he went on the attack, firing lasers at the titans, who all skillfully dodged all the blasts, "What's wrong, can't take the heat?" James taunted.

"Oh, we can take anything you dish out!" Brian yelled, as he charged the serpent robot, which dodged, and flew out of the arena.

"COWARD!" Echo-Echo yelled, just as the floor underneath them lit up. As they looked down the same serpent broke through the floor, and trapped the titans all under its tail.

"Ah, I do adore a good game of squash," James said, as he slammed the robots tail against the titans again. But the titans, being as resilient as they are, they were able to break free, and destroy the robot, which caught the whole facility on fire, "Grr, you boys foiled my plans this time, but mark my words, I'll be back!" James said, as he flew away in his hovercraft, just as another explosion knocked down some more debris.

"We'd better get out of here, and fast," Silver said, as he teleported his brothers out of the building, just as the whole thing went up in flames.

Back in the titan lair,

"I see, so the big robot that you saved was also the one that kidnapped Nyx, but was totally different from the one that kidnapped Season and Toby?" Twilight asked.

"Yes mommy, we didn't mean to do something that dangerous, but we wanted to save Nyx," Josh explained.

"Well, just promise me you won't do anything that dangerous anymore," Twilight asked with a stern yet soft tone.

"Yes mommy," Kelly, Crystal and Josh said in unison.

"Well, we should at least go and find the titans together. They weren't with Eris and Nyx when they came back," Discord suggested.

"Alright, all of stay together while we're out, we don't know where James and the Chaos creature are, so we need to be on our toes and the tips of our hooves," Twilight said, as ball of light emerged in front of them, depositing the titans and Eris.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the forest,

James was flying back to his other secret base, still charred up from the fight he had with the titans, "Blast those teenagers! I'll get even with them!" he said, just as he came across a familiar water based life form, "Chaos!" James cried, as the water monster attacked him with a water blast, as a bolt of lightning tore across the sky, with the master Element sitting at the alter.

Chapter 12: Chaos' rampage begins! Rush to save Equestria!

After bringing James' plans to a screeching halt, the titans decided that they should try to navigate their way out of the forest, "Ok, so which way do we go now?" Icezer asked.

I hear a commotion coming from over there," Francis said, as he and the others went to investigate. When they got to the scene, they saw Eris standing in front of an unconscious James, "Eris! What'd ya do to him?" Francis asked.

"Nothing, I found him this way," Eris replied.

Stealth then carefully poked James' leg to see if he was alive, which he was, startling the ninja, "WAAAH! He's alive!" Stealth cried.

"Of course I am," James snarled.

"What happened?" Silver asked.

"Chaos turned against me," James replied.

"Why'd it do a thing like that?" Raiden asked.

"Because it wants to use the elements of harmony for itself," James replied.

"Well, we have time to stop it, like you said when we first encountered you, Chaos can only absorb two elements at a time," Silver commented.

"You're so naïve. Chaos can absorb the five I already fed it, along with the element of magic at once, since it got used to the power of five of them," James snarled.

"Alright, tell us where Chaos is, or else!" Brian said, grabbing James by the shirt.

"TAKE IT EASY BRIAN," Echo-Echo said, trying to hold back Brian.

"How dare you threaten me? I'd love to stay and teach you a lesson, but I've got to fly," James said, as a grappling hook grabbed him, and pulled him upward. Looking up, the titans and Eris could see the villains all in a hot air balloon, pulling James up.

"Alright, lets start reeling him in," High Heel said.

"The winch is jammed!" the Pharaoh said.

"We could pull him up ourselves," Shadow Mane suggested.

"No way, we'll get a hernia if we try that," Mane-iac said.

"Don't just leave me dangling here, pull me up!" James called.

"Blah," Smudge said.

"He's right, don't get agitated, the cable could snap!" Long Face said.

"So just try to enjoy the ride!" High Heel called, as the hot air balloon floated away.

"If James was telling the truth, then we need to protect the elements of harmony at all costs, before it can absorb them all," Eris said, just as they were all engulfed in a ball of light, "Not again!"

"What's going on?!" Silver called. Opening their eyes, they saw that they were at the same temple as before, "Where are we?" he asked, as he and the others looked around.

"Wait, I know this place, we're back in the past," Eris said, as she and the titans turned their attention towards a temple, where there stood a bunch of warriors in front of a young mare.

"Jewel Rush, we must seize those elements in order to make ourselves strong. Its the only way to protect our clan," one stallion with a beard said.

"But this plan is foolish father! We mustn't seize the elements for ourselves, it will bring nothing by pain and disaster to our neighbors!" Jewel Rush argued.

"The clan has made its decision, and we'll seize the elements now! Warriors, ATTACK!" the elder of the tribe ordered, as the others charged for the temple.

"STOP IT!" Jewel Rush pleaded, as she and the Breezies were knocked out of the way, as the warriors made their way up the steps of the alter.

Once at the top, they saw Chaos began to materialize, "What is this thing?" Jewel Rush's father asked, as he and the other warriors were engulfed in a bright light. When the light deteriorated, they were all gone.

"They're gone, all of them," Stealth commented.

"Not all," Eris said, as she and the titans rushed over to Jewel Rush, who slowly got up.

"Why didn't you listen father?" Jewel Rush asked, as she climbed the steps of the alter with the titans and Eris in tow. Once at the top, they came face to face with the Master Element, "Please, you must understand, the servers are the six harmony, our hearts intensify their power, the controller serves to unify the harmony. The Elements of Harmony takes what is in our hearts and turns it into power," Jewel Rush said, before she gasped in realization, "But if the heart of the wielder is full of nothing but anger and hatred. Oh, please, you must stop Chaos!" Jewel Rush pleaded to the Master Element, as she was engulfed in a bright light, which also engulfed Eris and the titans, who were transported back to Titan Lair, and in front of a bunch of very surprised children and adults.

"Eris! Are you and the boys alright?" Discord asked.

"Yeah, we're fine daddy," Eris replied.

"But what happened?" Twilight asked. Silver then explained what had happened after the Mane Carrier incident, with following James to his secret forest hideout, the battle with James, and where they came from in the ball of light, "Ah, I see," Twilight said in understanding.

"ERIS, DID YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT MARE SAID?" Echo-Echo asked.

"Yeah, it'll be big trouble for us when Chaos gets ahold of Trinity, along with the other elements," Eris explained.

"So all we have to do is protect Trinity? Piece of cake," Rainbow Dash said.

"That sounds more easier said than done, since Silver told us that Chaos will do whatever it can to get all the elements," Echo pointed out. Just then, water began forcing its way through the tiled floors, surrounding Trinity.

"MOMMY!" Trinity called in fear, as the water then began to form a tornado.

"Hold on Trinity!" Twilight called, as she and Silver jumped in to save the alicorn filly. They held on for a short while, but the water was making the two loose their grip of Trinity, as she was sucked back to the base of the tornado, along with the burlap sack that held the other elements of harmony. Just as they were about to be sucked up, Brian launched a fireball at the base, which destroyed the tornado, but he, nor the others could make it to save the elements.

"Are you two ok?" Toby asked.

"I've been better," Silver replied.

"Me too," Twilight commented.

"That creature is now more powerful than all of us, it can't be stopped," Eris said.

"Well, we have to at least try," Matterhorn said, just as a large tremor hit the titan lair.

"WHAT THE...?!" Echo-Echo cried.

"Looks like the fireworks are starting!" Icezer commented, as some rubble started to fall.

"Everyone, get out of here, NOW!" Silver called, as they all evacuated the lair, just as more boulders began to fall.

Chapter 13: The final Battle; Enter the harmony titans!

Meanwhile, in the city of Manehatten,

As the city dwellers went about their normal routines, a tremor made them all jerk their heads up in concern, as well as an orange filly with a two tone pink mane and tail, "What was that?" Babs asked, as she looked around. Just then, several manhole covers shot out of the ground, spewing water, "WHAT THE...?!" Babs cried, as she was scooped up by her parents. Ponies everywhere began screaming in terror as the streets began to crack open, and more water spat out of the buildings, completely flooding the city. Police ponies were helping civilians seek shelter in some of the safe and sturdy buildings, just as the flood came through. Out of one of the buildings, a giant serpentine Chaos formed, opening its new reptilian eyes, as it spread the flood far and wide throughout all of Equestria.

In Appaloosa,

As Braeburn, along with a few other farming ponies continued to harvest apples for the townsfolk, a rumbling came from beyond the town. As they rushed to see what the commotion was, all color drained from their faces when they saw a giant tidal wave coming towards them, "EVACUATE TO HIGHER GROUND!" the sheriff called, as ponies and buffalo rushed for the higher up hills.

In Ponyville,

"Ok kids, we're going to be moving up to the hill!" Cheerilee called, as students were rushing for the hills, to escape the flood.

"Cheerilee! Are all the foals ok?" Cheerilee turned to see the Mayor galloping towards her, as more and more of the townsfolk were heading up the hill themselves.

"All of them are ok, and are heading on up ahead, as we should be doing," Cheerilee said, as she and the Mayor quickly ran up the slope to higher ground.

In Canterlot,

The royal family watched on the TV given to them by Discord what was happening throughout Equestria, "All of Equestria is flooded! The only good news is that nopony has been reported to be seriously injured. Many engineers say that something has gone wrong with the lands water system, and are trying to, oh wait, there's something down there! It looks like a monster!" the reporter pony said, as she flew above with a news crew, as they flew over Chaos.

"Princesses, I fear that none of the attacks we made on that monster were successful in any way," a guard said.

"What do you think is going happen?" Timmy whispered to Drake.

"I don't know, but I pray for something to be done," Drake replied.

"Don't worry boys, I'm sure everything will be ok," Luna reassured.

Back with our heroes,

After escaping the destruction of the Titan Lair, Francisco made a jet plane for everyone, save for the pegasi who decided to fly themselves to try and find Chaos, save for Fluttershy, who decided to fly in one of the jets, while Icezer froze the ground in front of him, and skated towards Chaos, with Filli Second with him, "C'mon Filli Second! We have to hurry to save Equestria, before there's nothing left to save!" Icezer called.

"I know that!" Filli Second called back.

"*Bzzt* Icezer, can you read me? We've spotted Chaos! Follow our jets and we'll lead you to it!" Silver said.

"Copy that Silver!" Icezer said, as he and Filli Second followed the jets towards where Chaos was rampaging, "Whoa, alright Filli Second, are ya ready?" Icezer asked the supersonic mare, who nodded, as they rushed to do battle with Chaos.

Meanwhile, in another robot base,

"Main thrusters are charged and ready for take off," Mane-iac said.

"Then fire them, and lets take off! Chaos had better get ready, because things are about to get really chaotic. A successful evil genius always has a plan B, that's why I have the Mane Carrier mark II," James said, as he and the villains sat in the control bridge, "Alright Mane Carrier Mark II, TAKE OFF!" James called, as the enormous battleship lifted off from the ground.

Back with the battle with Chaos,

As Icezer and Filli Second charged at Chaos from all possible angles, they soon found them selves surfing for their lives, just before being picked up by the jets, "Are you two ok?" Rarity asked, as the two heroes latched onto the jet she was in.

"Yeah, but since Chaos is more powerful than ever, we're going to need all the help we can get," Icezer replied, as a large shadow flew over our heroes.

"Back off you brats! Chaos double crossed us, so we'll get first shots at it," James said over an intercom system.

"Daddy?" Toby asked.

"He's fighting on our side now?" Clover asked.

"Chaos, we'll have you know that disloyalty to us is punishable by destruction! Ok guys, fire all our rockets!" James called to the villains, who did just as he said. But once the rockets were all close enough to Chaos, it made a force field, which protected it from the rockets. But it wasn't done yet. It then fired a beam of white light at the Mane Carrier Mark II, blowing it to bits. Luckily(?), James and the villains were able to escape just before the beam hit the ship.

"Oh great! Now how are we gonna stop Chaos?!" Brian demanded, as his jet, along with the others were engulfed in a bright light.

"This just keeps getting weirder and weirder by the second," Heiru commented, as he and his brothers were brought to the ground gently, along with the jets. Looking around, they soon saw Jewel Rush walking towards them, "Its you!" Heiru exclaimed.

"Ever since the day my clan attack the Master Elements shrine, Chaos has known only hatred and anger. So I have been traveling the eternal seas of time with Chaos, to keep its power in check, but some fiend woke Chaos, with a plan to use its power for evil," Jewel Rush said.

"James, he must have found a way to come back to Equestria, and figured out how to release Chaos from the Master Element," Raiden said. Just then, they turned towards Chaos, who spat out the Elements of Harmony. When the element of loyalty touched down, it quickly lost all its luster, and grew a dull red.

"Chaos has now drained the Elements of all their power. We must seal Chaos back in the Master Element!" Jewel Rush cried.

"It wont work," Silver said, which made the mare look at him curiously, "If we try to seal Chaos back in the Master Element, the same thing will only happen again," he explained.

"Silver's right, we have to solve this problem once and for all!" Raiden said.

"But, what can we do?!" Jewel Rush cried.

"Silver!" they all turned to see Twilight and friends coming towards them with the element of generosity.

"We found Charity after Chaos let her and the others go," Rarity explained.

"Hey guys!" they all turned to see the children, the Power Ponies, and much to their surprise, James and the villains, "If the Elements are what gave Chaos all that power, then they should be able to defeat it!" Josh said, holding the element of Honesty.

"Here you go boys, you should try to save the day, since you learned more about Chaos," Matterhorn said, giving them the element of laughter, before turning towards James with a glare.

"Oh alright, here," James said, handing over the element of Kindness.

"We just need magic," Brian said.

"BIG BWOTHERS!" they turned to see Heaven running towards them with the element of Magic in her hands. She tripped on her way.

"ARE YOU OK HEAVEN?" Echo-Echo asked.

"Yeah, but I want you guys to have this," Heaven replied, giving him the element.

"You guys can do it!" Toby cheered.

"We know you can! And after you beat Chaos, we can have 'Congratulations on saving all of Equestria' PARTY!" Pinkie squealed. Just then, each of the elements began to glow a bright color.

"The elements are getting their power back," Twilight said, as they, along with the others let the elements float up in the air, taking the titans with them, who closed their eyes, and as if by magic, their hair, or in Echo-Echo's case, his entire body, turned into a brilliant rainbow hue.

"What? But I thought the power of the elements could only be awakened by hate and anger?" Jewel Rush said.

"There are other feelings that are even more powerful," Eris philosophized.

"Eris is right, caring and friendship are stronger then hate and anger, and that's how the titans will stop Chaos," Cory said, before noticing a blush on Eris' face, which she shyly tried to hide.

"Alright guys, you ready?" Harmony Silver asked.

"YOU BET WE ARE!" his brothers replied, as they all flew towards Chaos to begin the final battle. Chaos then put up a barrier to protect itself, but it was all for naught, as they all tore through barrier with zero effort.

"Alright!" Rainbow Dash cheered, shooting up into the air, before she saw Chaos taking notice of her, "Uh oh," she squeaked, as Chaos fired a beam of light at her, and the others. But it never hit them, with quick thinking on Silver's part, who quickly flew over, and using his psychic powers, deflected the beam.

"I don't think so bub," Silver taunted, as Chaos turned away, and fired at Ponyville, "Uh oh, Icezer, protect the civilians!" he called to his brother, who quickly flew over to Ponyville, and froze the moisture in front of the townsfolk. Among one of them, a young filly with a red curly mane and tail felt her heart race as she witnessed the bravery of the icy hero.

"Your destroying day are over pal!" Icezer taunted. Chaos, getting angrier, the used solidified water spikes to attack, which were broken apart by Brian, Raiden, and Echo-Echo. This enraged Chaos further, so it decided to destroy all of Equestria in one attack with a giant ball of condensed magic.

"Boys! If that ball collides with just one bit of land, it'll destroy all of Equestria!" Discord called.

"Looks like its my time to shine," Francisco smiled at the challenge, and warped space around the ball to the point that no energy could escape. This was proven, when the ball exploded, and not one bit of destruction was caused.

"Well guys, shall we finish this?" Silver asked.

"You can count on me," Brian said.

"Me too," Raiden said.

"Don't forget the rest of us," Icezer said, as the others nodded in agreement.

"Then lets do it!" Silver said, as he and the other titans flew at Chaos, who blasted a beam of energy at them. The brothers joined hands, and made a drill like maneuver right into the beam, and straight into Chaos' mouth. Then, Chaos began to glow a bright rainbow color, and then disintegrated, with the titans all safely landing behind it. Reverting back to their previous forms, the titans all turned towards the ponies, and their families, who all rushed over to them.

"That. Was. AWESOME!" Rainbow Dash said.

"I never knew the elements of harmony could've been used like that," Twilight commented.

"Nor did I," Discord said.

"Hey, look!" Icezer said, pointing behind them. Much to their surprise, Chaos was standing their, in its first form.

"Chaos wasn't destroyed, it survived!" Rainbow Dash said, getting ready to fight Chaos.

"Hold on," Stealth said, putting a hand on Rainbow Dash's shoulder. Looking more closely, Stealth saw no hostility in Chaos' eyes, "Chaos doesn't look angry anymore." he explained.

"You're correct. That last attack purged Chaos of all its hatred and anger," Jewel Rush said, as she walked over to Chaos, "Alright Chaos, its time for us to return to our own place in time," she cooed, as she and Chaos began to float into the air, before disappearing in a flash of light. Just after they left, Raiden realized something.

"Hey, where're James and the villains?" he asked.

"I think they escaped while we were distracted," Josh pointed out. Just then, a flash of six different lights shone, "Look! The elements!" Josh said, pointing into the air, where the elements were slowly floating down from. Once they were a few inches from the ground, the then took the form of Trinity, and the rest, but this time, they had crystalline manes and tails.

"Serenity!" Toby and Fluttershy exclaimed, they rushed over to hug the green filly, as the others did as well.

"Mommy, Toby! I missed you two!" Serenity said, giving a big hug to her family.

"We missed you too sis," Toby said, holding his sister close to him, "But what happened to you manes and tails?" he asked.

"I'd say its a small side effect from turning back into our jewel forms," Trinity suggested.

"Well, I'd say they're divine!" Rarity commented.

"Well, Chaos is no longer hostile, so now we can rest easy for now," Rainbow Dash said.

"Not quite yet Rainbow, we still need to help with the clean up around Equestria," Raiden pointed out, which made everyone grimace.

"Don't worry about that, I'll have Equestria back to the way it was before," Discord said, snapping his bear claw. And just like that, all of Equestria was back to normal.

"Well, that certainly clears up a lot of work," Brain commented.

"Yeah, but you boys did great out there," Eris said.

"Heh, thanks," Silver said, as the sun began to set.

Author's Note

Here's the last chapter in the Chaos saga of the story, but its not over yet! There are still more adventures for the titans to come. Stay tuned.

Oh, and if you're wondering if I'll make a Sonic Adventure 2 story, that will be a separate story.

Chapter 14: The message from Canterlot High

After saying their farewells to the Power Ponies, Twilight and friends decided to head back to Ponyville, "Well, my first priority is making a new house for me and my brothers, and Heaven. You guys all go do what you want to do, and I'll catch up later," Francisco said, as he left to go find a good house location.

"Ok, so what should we do in the mean time?" Twilight asked.

"We never really did get a tour of Ponyville, so we should probably do that," Silver suggested.

"Alright, come this way, and we'll show you boys around town, and you can show Francisco around later," Twilight said leading them around the village. They decided their first stop would be Sugarcube Corner. After a few minutes of walking, they arrived.

"Whoa, is this a bakery or a gingerbread house?" Stealth asked.

"It just looks like that, it really is a bakery and sweetshop," Melody replied, as they all entered the sweetshop.

"Oh, Pinkie! We were all so worried about you and your friends!" Mrs.Cake said, as she turned to see the pink mare and her friends, and just noticing the titans, "Oh, are these boys new friends of yours?" she asked.

"Yep! There's another one, but he's out scouting a new home for them to live in," Pinkie replied.

"Oh, well, its a pleasure to meet you boys, I'm Cup Cake, co-owner of Sugarcube Corner," Mrs. Cake said, introducing herself.

"Nice to meet you too Mrs. Cake, I'm Silver, the leader of our group, and these are my brothers, Stealth, Raiden, Echo-Echo, Brian, Icezer, and Heiru, and our little sister, Heaven. Our other brothers name is Francisco, but we call him Francis," Silver said, introducing his brothers.

"Well, I would love for you to meet my husband, but he's upstairs, trying to get Pound and Pumpkin to stop crying," Mrs.Cake said, just as a delivery stallion came in.

"Delivery for Princess Twilight," he said.

"Oh, well, go ahead and take what ever it is to my castle library," Twilight told him.

"Even the book at the top, that's vibrating?" he asked, which made Twilight and friends look at him curiously.

"Preposterous, how can a book vibrate?" Raiden asked.

"I don't know, but it just is," the delivery stallion replied.

"Mrs.Cake, I hate to leave, but I need to see what he's talking about," Twilight said.

"Hey, wait for us!" Rainbow Dash called.

"Sorry for leaving Mrs.Cake, but we need to see what this is all about," Silver said.

"Its alright Silver, you go see what the fuss is about," Mrs.Cake said, waving him goodbye.

A little later in the castle of friendship library,

"Ok, so give us the book you said was vibrating," Twilight asked the delivery pony.

"Uh, its at the top of the pile," the delivery pony said.

Looking up, Silver used his psychic powers to lower the book down, "Here you go," he said, giving the alicorn princess a smile.

Opening up the book, Twilight gasped in surprise. It was a message to her and Sunset Shimmer from their friends at Canterlot high, "Mommy, what is it?" Trinity asked.

"Well, do you remember about the adventure I told you kids about, when me and Spike visited that parallel world through the mirror?" she asked.

"Oh yeah, I was there when you guys helped conquer my fears of my old schools Principal," Cory replied.

"It was an Earth that had humans that looked like everyone here in Equestria, right?" Josh asked.

"That's right, it appears that they had some sort of book that works even beyond the magic of said portal," Twilight replied.

"But how is that possible? And where's the portal?" Stealth asked.

"It appears that the book acts as some sort of communication device that works even past the magic of the portal. And as to where it is, its right here in the castle. My brother and sister in law in the Crystal Empire sent it to me when I moved into the castle for the first time, so whenever I want to visit my Canterlot High friends, I can just go over whenever the portal opens," Twilight explained.

"AH, I SEE, BUT WHAT DO YOUR HIGHSCHOOL FRIENDS WANT?" Echo-Echo asked.

"Apparently, it has to do with the sirens," Twilight replied.

"Not the sirens!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, before leaning towards Fluttershy, "I don't actually know what that is," she whispered.

"I've heard of Sirens, but that was all a bunch of Greek myth," Raiden said.

"You can tell us about this Greek culture later, but for right now, could you tell us of these Sirens?" Rarity asked.

"The Sirens were three beautiful but dangerous female creatures who had the power to charm ponies with their music. But to maintain this power, they had to feed on the negativity and distrust of others. The more of this negative energy they consumed, the stronger their voices became, and the farther the could spread their dark magic," Twilight explained.

"I don't think I like this story very much," Fluttershy commented.

"If the sirens had their way, they would have divided and conquered all of Equestria. But a certain Star Swirl the Bearded wasn't having it. Rumor has it he found a way to banish them to another world – one where he believed their magic power would be lost. That world must have been the one where my Canterlot High friends live. " Twilight further explained.

"But Star Swirl must have sent them there ages ago. Why are they're just surficin' now?" Applejack asked.

"I don't know. But if my hunch is right and it is the sirens who have come to Canterlot High, this spell they've cast is just the beginning. My friends need me. I have to get back to them," Twilight said, before being stopped by Rainbow Dash.

"I hate to burst your bubble, Twilight, but the connection between their world and Equestria will still be totally cut off for a super long time," she explained.

"Okay, first of all, if there was bubble-blowing going on, why wasn't I told about it?! And secondly, if the connection is totally cut off, how were the human us able to get a message to Twilight?" Pinkie asked.

Twilight gasped in realization of what the pink mare had said, "Pinkie Pie, you're a genius!" she squeaked.

"Yeah, I get that a lot," Pinkie Pie replied, before leaning towards Rainbow Dash, "Now, about these bubbles," she whispered, which made everyone, save for her daughters and Heaven, roll their eyes.

"Spike, can you get a hold of Sunset Shimmer in Canterlot? She may want to go back to the other world with us," Twilight asked her dragon son.

A few minutes later,

"...And the interval between the two points is defined as the square root of the sum of the squares of the separation between the points along three spatial dimensions," Twilight said, hooking a mirror up to some machinery.

"Any idea what she just said?" Brian whispered to Raiden.

"Not a clue," the electric titan replied

"Duh! She's gonna take the magic in here and put it in there. That'll make the portal open up so that whenever she wants to, she can go from here to there. There to here. Here to there. Here there! Here there! Here—" Pinkie explained, before being silenced by Applejack.

"We get the idea!" she said.

"Now then, to see if this works," Twilight said, with the flip of a switch, which started to draw magic from the book, which then was carried to the mirror, which formed a swirly vortex in the middle.

"Don't you suppose we could join you this time around?" Applejack asked.

"Better not. It could make things pretty confusing if Canterlot High suddenly had two of all of you," Twilight explained, which they all nodded in agreement.

"But I can still go too? There isn't another me at Canterlot High, and you never know if you might need you trusty assistant," Spike offered.

"Ok, and Toby, if Fluttershy is ok with it, you can come with us," Twilight said to her nephew.

"Can I go with them Momma?" Toby asked.

"Well, we wont have to wait a month like we did last time, will we?" Fluttershy asked.

"No, the magic of the book is holding the portal open, so we won't have to wait," Twilight replied.

"In that case, you can go with, but if you get hurt, then I want you to come back immediately, ok?" Fluttershy asked in a soft, yet serious tone. Just then, she noticed an anxious look on Serenity's face, "Serenity, is something wrong?" she asked.

"Oh, um, w-well, I was w-wondering if maybe, if you don't mind, that I can go with them too?" Serenity asked shyly.

"Um, well, I don't have any objections, just stay with Toby at all times," Fluttershy replied.

"Ok Mommy, I-I'll be careful," Serenity said.

"If you all want, you can come with us as well," Twilight said to her children, who all nodded eagerly.

"If you kids go, you must stay together at all times," Applejack said, looking at her children, who all nodded in understanding.

"The same goes for the rest of you," Rarity said, looking at the other children, whose mothers nodded in agreement. The children nodded in understanding.

"Would you mind terribly if we came along too?" Silver asked.

"If you boys want to, then you can tag along," Twilight replied, just as the castle doors opened, revealing Sunset Shimmer and Francisco.

"Hey Twilight, I came as soon as I got the message," Sunset said.

"So, our next adventure takes place in a mirror universe?" Francisco asked.

"That it does Francis," Silver replied.

"Alright everyone, lets go," Twilight said, as she led the children, along with Sunset Shimmer into the mirror.

Chapter 15: Arrival

While waiting for Twilight and Sunset Shimmer to return to Canterlot high, five teenage girls who vaguely resembled the other members of the Mane six were all busying themselves. The girl who looked like Applejack was playing another girl who resembled Pinkie Pie at cards, and was loosing. The girls who looked like Rarity and Fluttershy were discussing some fashion, while the girl who resembled Rainbow Dash was practicing soccer tricks. After a few more moments of waiting, Twilight and Sunset Shimmer were thrown out of the portal, "TWILIGHT! SUNSET SHIMMER!" the five girls cried as they rushed over to their friends, just as Spike, and the children fell out of the portal, with the pony children all falling out in their human forms. Nyx was wearing a similar outfit to her humanized mother, except her outfit was a more darker shade of purple, and her cutie mark was located on her skirt. Bolt was wearing an orange shirt, with denim overalls, and the elements of harmony were all wearing outfits based on each of them.

"Oof, I feel like I just rode a roller coaster," Silver commented, as he rubbed the back of his head, and steadily stood up, while the others did so, while the human turned ponies had some difficulty standing up.

"Here Nyx, let me help you," Josh said, as he and Kelly helped their sister up, "There, now try to find your center of balance," Josh said, as Nyx got a better handle on standing on two legs.

"Hey Twilight, who're all these kids?" the human Rainbow Dash asked.

"Well, they're our families, well, the families of my friends back in Equestria, including my own," Twilight replied, which really shocked the human girls, before Twilights expression turned serious, "But as for those girls you wrote to me about, I'm afraid I have bad news," she solemnly said, before turning towards Cory, "Capri-core, me, Sunset, and our friends are heading to Sugarcube corner to discuss the situation. If you wouldn't mind, could you take the other children to the park while we discuss our plans. We'll meet up later in the school gym," Twilight asked of her eldest son.

"Sure thing Mom," Cory replied, as he led the children to the park.

Meanwhile, back in the Castle of Friendship,

After bidding adieu to the children, the other members of the Mane Six decided to preoccupy themselves with something to do, while they wait for the groups return. As they were about to leave, a certain Draconequss teleported into the room, with the royal sisters, and Eris with him, "Pardon our intrusion Fluttershy, but where are the titans? I have the adoption forms for them and Heaven," Discord asked his butter yellow friend.

"Oh, uh, well, this is a bit... awkward, but the Titans went with Twilight into that other human universe through the mirror," Fluttershy replied.

"Oh good grief! How am I supposed to adopt them if they never stay put?!" Discord demanded.

"Don't worry Daddy, you'll get your chance," Eris reassured, placing an eagle talon on her fathers shoulder.

"Hmm, I guess you're right. We'll have to catch them as they come out of the portal," Discord said, before a look of confusion crept onto his face, "But, why did they go through the portal?" he asked.

"It has to do with the Sirens, according to Twilight," Rarity replied.

"Ooh, Sirens, very dangerous," Discord commented.

"I take it you knew them?" Rarity asked.

"And how. Back when I used to be evil, we were the best of pals, but before Starswirl the Bearded banished them, I never got a good handle on their history, so I have no idea where they came from," Discord explained.

"Hmm, well, hopefully Twilight and the others can think of something," Fluttershy commented worriedly.

"I'm sure they will," Rarity reassured.

Back in Canterlot City park,

After they left Twilight and her friends to discuss the Sirens, the children made their way to the park while they waited for the girls to return. Heaven was playing with the others while her brothers, and Cory kept a watchful eye on the young ones, as they played on the playground, "Twilight wasn't kidding when she said everyone here looked like the ponies form Equestria," Raiden commented.

"Yeah, when I first came to Equestria, I was bewildered beyond belief when I saw the crusaders for the first time, and how they looked a lot like some of the girls from Canterlot High," Cory replied. Just then, they heard a commotion coming from the playground. Looking the direction of where it was coming from, and saw a human girl with wavy brown hair, blue eyes, denim shorts, white shirt with a griffon silhouette, picking on the other children, and much to the titans enragement, Heaven.

"Boys, lets go check it out," Silver said, as he and the other titans approached the children.

"Matilda, knock it off!" Toby demanded.

"Why should I? Are you gonna cry?" the new girl taunted.

"You just wait you meanie! My big bwothers are wewwy stwong!" Heaven warned.

"Pfft, yeah right. What are they gonna do?" Matilda asked.

"Why don't you ask them? They're all standing behind you," Nyx commented, pointing behind the bully.

Looking behind her, Matilda felt a chill go up her spin when she saw eight angry teenagers, whose eyes were all glowing red with rage, "What do you think you're doing to our sister and her friends?" Silver asked, glaring fiercely at the bully.

"Uh, well...I...uh," Matilda tried to form a sentence, but was too scared, as a dark aura began to emit from each of the titans.

"We'd better not catch you picking on our sister, or her friends ever again. Otherwise, we'll tell your parents about your behavior. Understand?" Raiden growled.

"Clear as crystal!" Matilda replied.

"Good, now go on back to your parents," Icezer ordered, which Matilda complied, running faster than she ever had before.

"Are you alright Heaven?" Stealth asked.

"Yeah, thanks," Heaven replied.

"Who was that?" Brian asked.

"Matilda. I encountered her when I came to this world in search of my Mommy's locket," Toby replied.

"SHE SEEMED LIKE A TOUGH COOKIE," Echo-Echo commented.

"Oh, she is. She picked on me the first day I got here, calling me names, and threatening to beat me up. It would've been so, if not for one of my friends from this world, Noi, stepping in when she did," Toby explained.

"Oof, well, you're lucky to have made a friend with her. She sounds like a good person," Silver commented.

"Yeah. Someone like her sounds like fun!" Lucky Joy commented.

Looking at his watch, Cory's eyes widened, "Alright guys, lets head to the school," he said, leading the children to Canterlot High. However, watching them from the shadows, a young blue teenage girl, with blue hair, with stripes in it, and an outfit consisting of a reddish brown shirt, pink skirt, matching pink skirt, spiked wristbands, and an ominous looking necklace, watched the whole ordeal.

"Huh, those guys look like trouble. Better let Adagio know," Sonata said, as she munched happily away at her taco, "But first, I should try to find a churro," she thought.

Author's Note

Uh oh, looks like Sonata now has Intel on the titans! :pinkiegasp: How will this turn out? Stay tuned!

Chapter 16: The Sirens

Leaving the park behind, Cory lead the others to Canterlot High, where they would meet Twilight and friends. After a few minutes of walking, they had arrived at their destination, "Wow, this is impressive," Nyx commented.

"That was my first impression when I got here," Toby said, as they walked into the massive building, unaware of a van pulling to the curb, with a lookalike of Twilight.

"Why is it I have strange feeling about that school?" the human Twilight asked, before shrugging it off, and driving away.

Walking towards where the gym was, all the children, save for Cory, Toby, and Crystal, were amazed at the amazing building structure, "Wow, this school's impressive," Raiden commented.

"That's what I thought too," Toby said. After some walking, they arrived at the gym, where the students looked at each other with growing suspicion, "Huh, it wasn't like this the last time I was here," he deadpanned.

"CORY! OVER HERE!" the children turned to see Twilight and friends standing away from the other students.

"Hey Mom, did you get info on the sirens?" Cory asked.

"Yeah, from what the girls described of them, we should find them if we look around," Twilight said, before bumping into a human boy, who looks to be around the age of Rainbow Dash, and the rest.

"Twilight?" the boy asked.

"Eh, bumped, into, always, doing?" Twilight meekly replied.

"What are you doing here? You came back for the big competition, right?" the boy asked.

"Something like that," Twilight replied.

"Huh. Not that there's gonna be any real competition. No one here wants this as bad as my band does!" The boy said, as a commotion was coming from the other side of the room.

"Can you excuse me for just a minute?" Twilight said, as she and her group went to see what was causing the ruckus.

On the other side of the room, three mysterious teenage girls were looking around at the conflict, "Oh, no! No one is mingling! Its like there's some kind of underlying tension that could bubble to the surface any minute!" the teenage girl with big puffy orange and yellow hair said in mock surprise.

"Is it the fruit punch? I knew I added too much grape juice!" the blue girl from the park said, holding up a bottle.

"Its not the fruit punch! Its us!" the puffy haired one said, face palming.

"But the punch is awful, too," the other purple girl said,

"What do you know about good fruit punch?" the blue girl asked.

"More than you!" the purple girl snapped back.

"Do not!"

"Do too!"

"This is just the kickoff party, girls. Imagine what a tizzy they'll be in by the time the Battle of the Bands starts," the puffy haired girl said wickedly.

"There isn't going to be a Battle of the Bands! We're gonna make sure of that! Alright, girls, let's do this!" Twilight said, as the six friends joined hands, "Friendship is magic! " she yelled. But nothing happened, as an awkward silence filled the room.

"Uh, should there be like some sort of rainbow beam thing blasting at those girls?" Silver whispered to Sunset.

"Well, that's how they defeated and reformed me," she said with a shrug.

"I don't understand. We're all together. Why isn't it working?" Twilight asked.

"Hmm, perhaps it won't work the same was as it did last time. Maybe it requires a different approach?" Raiden asked.

"And just who might you be?" the purple girl demanded.

"'Who are we?' Well, we're the STRAWBERRY MILK CHUGGERS CLUB!" Brian said, as he and his brother and Heaven appeared with identical t-shirts of a person drinking strawberry milk.

"WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THAT?!" everyone in the room, including the sirens, asked, with shocked looks on their faces.

"Here's your t-shirts!" Silver said, giving Twilight and friends t-shirts.

"There is no way we're drinking strawberry milk," Rarity said, as she and her friends, save for Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, (who took the shirts with gratitude), took the shirts and threw them away, much to Silvers dismay.

"Ok, you, uh.... really need to go ahead and do that whole 'magic of friendship' thing now," Spike said.

"I'm trying Spike! But as Raiden said, this time may need a different approach," Twilight said, as her group exited the auditorium, before Raiden gave a curious look at the sirens.

'Something doesn't seem right with those three. I just wonder what it is?' he thought to himself, as he ran to join his friends.

"Well, that was... interesting," the purple girl commented.

"Tell me about it Aria, but talk about throwing down the gauntlet! This group is obviously serious about winning! A little cocky though, aren't they? Claiming there won't really be a battle. Seems they think they already got this thing all locked up," the puffy haired girl said.

"Not if the Great and Powerful Trrrrrixie has anything to do with it!" another blue girl but with a mix of blue and white hair said boastfully.

"Whatever, Trixie! We're the best band in school!" the boy from before said.

"No! The Crusaders are gonna win!" a girl that looked like Applebloom argued, as everyone started arguing with one another.

" I think we may have found what we're looking for. Or rather, it found us," the puffy haired girl said sinisterly, as the purple girl slapped herself, "Magic!! Don't you see?! Everyone else has fallen under our spell. But not these girls. These girls are special. But as for those boys, the ones with that kid with the straw hat and the robot, they could be trouble," she said, as she looked at the doors Twilight's group left through.

Chapter 17: Raiden's study time begins

"It doesn't make any sense. I should have been able to create the spark that would help us break their spell. That's how it worked before," Twilight said, as she paced back and forth.

"But to defeat me, you drew magic from the crown I was wearing. The sirens' magic comes from their music. So maybe you have to use the same kind of magic to defeat them. Or... maybe not," Sunset said, lowering her head.

"Wait, maybe you're on to something!" Raiden said.

"Really?" Sunset asked surprised.

"Raiden's right. Its when you play music that you transform now, right?" Twilight asked.

"Yup. Ears, tails, the whole shebang," Applejack replied.

"So maybe the way to use that magic to defeat the sirens is by playing a musical counter-spell!" Twilight exclaimed.

"You mean like a song?" Fluttershy asked.

"Uh-huh. And in order to free everyone who's been exposed to the sirens' spell, we'll need them all to hear it," Twilight explained.

"Only question is, how do we get them to hear it?" Toby asked, as everyone pondered.

Suddenly, Rarity gasped, "The band competition! That's the next time we can be certain everyone will be in the same place at the same time!" she explained.

" Guess the Rainbooms are the band to beat," Applejack said.

"And I believe you, Twilight, just became the Rainbooms' newest member," Rarity said, as she and her friends all group hugged Twilight.

"So what do you want to play? The triangle?" Pinkie asked, pulling out a triangle, "Sousaphone?" she asked, pulling out a large brass instrument, "Theremin?" she asked, as she waved her hands around the wooden box, "So magical!" she commented.

"I might take a little too long trying to learn how to play something with these," Twilight replied, as she looked at her hands, "I'll just sing," she added.

"Like as in lead singer? Cuz that's usually my gig. This is my band after all," Rainbow Dash said.

"Its OUR band! And, of course, as lead singer. She's the one with the magical know how to help us pull this thing off," Applejack explained.

"Okay, yeah, that's cool. I'll just use this as a chance to hone my already insanely good lead guitar skills," Rainbow said.

"It's only temporary. And we don't have to win the Battle of the Bands. We just have to perform during the first round of the competition," Twilight explained.

"Let's get to learning that musical counter-spell!" Rainbow eagerly said.

"Well, that's just it. I don't know any," Twilight admitted, much to the disappointment of her friends and family, "But I'm sure I could figure out how to write one," she added.

"Totally! Twilight can write a spell like it's nobody's business. That's pretty much how she got to become a princess in Equestria," Spike said, praising his mother.

"Technically, I helped finish a spell. And there was a little more to it than that, Spike," Twilight explained.

"Yeah, whatever," Spike said.

"I've got this. C'mon!" Twilight said to Spike and her children.

"Where're you goin'?" Applejack asked.

"Well, last time we were here, Spike and I spent the night in the library," Twilight replied.

"Are you crazy?! We're besties now! Slumber party at my house!" Pinkie exclaimed, grabbing Twilights hand and running off, before being stopped by Raiden.

"You guys go on without me. I've got some studying to do on the sirens," he said, as he reentered the school.

"His loss," Rainbow dismissed.

"But we have a problem," Clover said.

"There are too many of us here," Melody pointed out.

"Well, seeing as how Pinkie is hosting us, it should be an all girl sleepover," Charity explained.

"Aww c'mon sis!" Conner said.

"I could watch them, if you wish?" everyone turned to see a man and a teenage girl in mismatched clothing standing at the top of the staircase.

"MR. DISCORD!" the human five and Toby all exclaimed.

"I have a fairly large house. A lot of the rooms are pretty much guest rooms," he explained, as he and the girl walked down.

"Daddy, would it be ok if I went with my friends?" the girl asked.

"Of course Eris," Discord replied.

"Alright Heaven, you stay inside Pinkie's house, ok?" Heiru asked.

"Ok Heiru!" Heaven said, as the girls made their way to Pinkie's house.

"I'LL GO IN AND TELL RAIDEN WHERE WE'RE GOING," Echo-Echo said, as he entered the school, and made his way to the library.

"I must say Toby, you've made quite a lot of colorful friends," Discord said.

"Yeah, a lots happened since I left," Toby replied, as Echo-Echo came out the doors.

"OK, RAIDEN WILL JOIN US MOMENTARILY," Echo-Echo said, as the titan in question came out the door with a stack of six books.

"That's it?" Silver asked.

"Well, the library doesn't have much to offer on Sirens, so I've got to work with what I've got," Raiden replied with a shrug, as the group made their way to Mr. Discords house.

Meanwhile, back in Equestria,

"Ok, so chocolate fudge cake, brownies, some cupcakes, and fruit punch will cover refreshments," Pinkie said, as she began planning for the adoption party for the titans and Heaven, "Now what to do for decorations?" she pondered, as her friends came in the room.

"Hey Pinks, still trying to figure out what to do for the party?" Rainbow asked.

"Yeah, but I'm having some difficulty. I don't really know the titans or Heaven all that well, so I don't know what to put up as far as decorations," Pinkie replied.

"Yeah, they have ben in Equestria for some time, but we never really got to spend some time with them," Rarity commented.

"But I'm sure we'll get the chance," Fluttershy said. Just then, a flash came from behind them. They turned to see Eris standing there with a book of some sort, with an enraged expression, "Eris, what's wrong?" the yellow Pegasus asked worriedly.

"Daddy told me about the world those boys came from, and their story, so I decided to do a little research," Eris explained, holding up the booklet. It was decorated with stickers of rainbows and butterflies, "This is the diary of that dictator that kept the boys and Heaven on the run. While I was reading through, I came across a section that makes my blood boil," she said, gritting her teeth.

Taking the diary from Eris, Rarity read over the first few pages, "Wow, this guy has issues. 'Wedgied by my own men' 'Swirlied by my own mother'? But what does this have to do with Silver and the others?" Rarity asked.

"Take a look at the section I bookmarked," Eris said. Turning to the bookmarked page, Rarity read over, and gasped.

"So, that awful dictator was lying to everyone in the titans' hometown about them, and all the other super powered youth?" Rarity asked.

"Afraid so," Eris said, "But my soon to be little brothers and sister deserve to know the truth," she explained.

"Yeah, but I can already imagine the amount of anger the titans are going to unleash on this guy," Rainbow Dash commented, as she and the others cringed at the thought.

"Well, from what Ah saw of that Brian feller, he's going to probably burn half the guys base just to get to him," Applejack said, as everyone in the room nodded in agreement.

Chapter 18: Raiden's realization

"Ugh, I'm not finding any clues!" Raiden exclaimed, as he read over the books he barrowed from the school library.

"Well, what clues are you trying to find?" Bolt asked.

"Well, clues as to what the primary weakness for sirens are, but all I'm finding is information on their pendants, and how they're the source of the siren's powers," Raiden replied.

"Why don't you take a break? You've been looming over those books ever since we got here," Mr. Discord said.

"Yeah, I think you're right," Raiden said, as he closed the book he was reading, and set it with the other books.

"So, what are you trying to find out about the sirens?" Josh asked.

"Well, when I looked into their eyes, they seemed, soulless," the thunder titan replied.

"Soulless?" Silver asked.

"Yeah, I'm trying to find out why their eyes look like that,"

"Well, why not have some soup? It may clear your mind," Mr. Discord suggested, handing Raiden a bowl of tomato basil soup.

"Right, thanks," Raiden said, as he and the other dug into the soup, "Ooh, this is herby," he commented.

"Yeah, an old family recipe," Mr. Discord replied, taking a bite out of his soup.

"So, Mr. Discord, what's Eris like?" Toby asked.

"Well, she's as chaotic as I. She plays the saxophone in the school band. She's also like Rarity, always participating in drama. She also toys around with puppets, mostly for the enjoyment of kids around your age," Mr. Discord replied.

Raiden thought long and hard about a key word that Mr. Discord said, 'Puppet'. He repeated the word over and over in his mind, when it finally donned on him, "Of course!" he exclaimed. This made everyone jump, "Oops, sorry," he said awkwardly.

"I don't get it. What's it?" Echo asked.

"One of the major factors that Mr. Discord said when he described Eris! Puppets!" Raiden replied, which made everyone look at him confusedly, "Don't you see? The girls that Twilight and friends are trying to beat aren't really the sirens!" he explained.

"Then, who or what are the sirens?" Brain asked.

"The puppet masters. Somehow, the souls of the sirens were laying dormant in those pendants, so it only stands to reason that destroying the pendants will release the girls!" Raiden replied.

"But if the spirits of the sirens are controlling those girls, then how did they take them over?" Conner asked.

"My guess would be that when they put those pendants on, the siren spirits were released, and they possessed them," Raiden replied with a shrug.

"If that's the case, then we got to go tell mom," Cory said, as he got up, before Mr. Discord placed a hand on his shoulder.

"That's all well and good, but the girls might've gone to sleep already," Mr. Discord said, pointing at a grandfather clock. The time showed nine thirty.

"Alright, if that's the case, then we'll have to tell them tomorrow," Raiden said, as he and the others finished the last of their soup.

"Alright boys, let me show you to your rooms," Mr. Discord said, leading the boys upstairs, where a hall of doors stood.

"Wow, you weren't kidding when you said your house was big," Silver commented, as Mr. Discord assigned reach of them their rooms, "Well, good night everyone," he said, as he entered the room.

"GOOD NIGHT," everyone said, as they entered their rooms.

The next morning, Raiden and the other decided to head to where Twilight and the others were, "They're all at Sweet Apple Acres on the edge of town, according to Eris. She says their practicing for that completion at school," Mr. Discord said.

"Ok, but what direction do we head?" Silver asked.

"Just head west of the school. You can't miss it," Mr. Discord replied, "Oh! And can you tell Eris that I'll be at the Battle tonight?" he asked.

"Sure thing," Raiden said, as the boys headed back towards the school.

One hour later,

"Man, Sweet Apple Acres is farther than I thought," Brian commented, as the boys continued to walk.

"Quit complaining Brian, we're almost there," Raiden said, before they were all stopped by a large black van. The front door of the van opened, and much to their surprise, another human Twilight stepped out wither hair done up in a bun.

"A HUMAN TWILIGHT? NEVER SAW THAT COMING," Echo-Echo commented.

"Fascinating!" Twilight said, walking towards the robot teen, "A robot that thinks for itself? Truly remarkable!" Twilight said.

"He's not actually a robot. He's actually a human boy with a robotic metal exoskeleton, capable of high powered sonic blasts," Raiden explained.

"So, you built it?" Twilight asked.

"Also, Echo-Echo's a 'he', not an 'it'," Silver deadpanned.

"And he's our brother," Stealth added.

"Now, if you don't mind, we're kind of in a hurry," Raiden said, as he pulled Echo-Echo away from Twilight, as he and the others left for Sweet Apple Acres.

"What's the hurry?" Twilight asked.

"We have some valuable information for our friends from Canterlot High," Raiden replied, wanting to escape the human Twilight before she gave him a migraine.

"Canterlot High? I've been trying to figure out what goes on at that school since last fall!" Twilight said.

"Really? Well, we'll just leave you to that," Brian said, as the boys walked away.

"But I..." Twilight didn't get a chance to speak before the boys were out of hearing range, "I wanted to see the technology that blue robot had," she said pouting.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY LEFT?!" Raiden cried, as he and the others arrived at Sweet Apple Acres.

"That's what Ah said young man," Granny Smith said, as Raiden hung his head down in defeat.

"Great, then we came all the way here for nothing," he said, despairingly.

"Well, before they left, mah granddaughter said they were heading to the school for that big musical contest," Granny said, which made Raiden raise his head in acknowledgement.

"Alright, thanks!" Raiden said, as he went to join his brother and friends, "Bad news guys. Twilight and the girls left for the school," he explained.

"Great, so now we've got to walk all the way back to the school! Just perfect!" Brian snarled angrily.

"Calm down Brian. We know the way, so it shouldn't take too long," Silver said, as they all left for the school.

Chapter 19: Battle of the Bands

Quickly making their way to the school, the boys soon made their way to the gymnasium, where the competition was being held, "Man, this place is a maze," Brian complained.

"Don't worry, the gyms not too far off," Cory said, as he bumped into someone, "Oof, sorry about that," he apologized, as he looked up to see Eris, on the floor.

"Ouchy, that really hurt ya know!" Eris complained, as she looked up to see Cory. She blushed when Cory took her hand and helped her up.

"I said sorry," Cory said, before noticing the girl he bumped into, "Wait, aren't you Eris, Mr. Discord's daughter?" he asked.

"Uh, that I am," Eris shyly replied.

"Well, could you tell us where the gym is? We're kind of in a rush," Raiden asked.

"Oh sure, take a left down the hall, then its the first double doors on your left," Eris replied, pointing the way.

"Great, thanks!" Raiden said, as he and his brothers ran off to the gym, in hopes of finding Twilight.

"We'd better get going too," Cory said, as he and the other boys ran off to join the titans, leaving Eris behind.

"Uh, ok, bye," Eris said to Cory, as she left for home.

While the ponies awaited the return of Twilight and the children, Eris was searching for her father, "Ooh, where's my Daddy?!" Eris complained, as she scoured Ponyville for her father, as she needed to inform him about her discovery, "Ugh, maybe something sweet will help me," Eris said, as she teleported to Sugarcube Corner. Once inside, she found Pinkie Pie working the counter.

"Oh, hey Eris," Pinkie said happily.

"Hey Pinkie," Eris said in sadness.

"What's wrong?" Pinkie asked the Draconequss girl.

"Well, I need to tell Daddy about what I found in that bully of a dictators diary, but I can't find him anywhere," Eris replied, "So, I thought I'd take a break from my search. Can I get a chocolate milkshake?" Eris asked, giving Pinkie some bits.

"Sure thing!" Pinkie said, as she went to making the sweet drink, "So, how are you going to break it to Silver and the others?" the pink are asked.

"Well, I don't know just yet, but I'm leaning heavily towards just giving them the diary, have them read over the section I bookmarked, and let it go from there," Eris replied.

"Well, it is only fair that they know the truth, whatever it is," Pinkie said, giving Eris the milkshake she requested.

"Yeah, but I worry about what'll happen after they find out," Eris said, taking a sip of her shake.

"What do you mean?" Pinkie asked.

"Well, they may want to go back to their old home and make that awful man pay for his crimes against them and the other super powered kids, but if they do, they might be met with all kinds of security forces," Eris replied.

"Never thought of that," Pinkie commented.

"That's why I worry for them," Eris replied, finishing off her milkshake.

"Well, you just need to have faith in them," Pinkie said.

"Yeah, but I still should show Daddy this diary," Eris said, pulling out the diary.

Chapter 20: End of the competetion?! Return to Equestria!

Nighttime fell fast onto the city of Canterlot, and the final match of the Battle of the Bands was starting with Trixie's band starting out, as Twilight and friends were all still trapped down below the stage. Meanwhile, above the stage, Silver, Heiru, and Echo-Echo were trying to find a way to stall the Dazzling's until Twilight and friends could make it out and face them, "C'mon guys, what can we do?" Silver asked his ghostly and robot brothers.

"Uh, close the curtains on them?" Heiru suggested.

"Well, its worth a try," Silver said, as the three of them rushed over to the curtain controls.

"Man, these controls are too retro!" Heiru commented.

"YOU'D THINK THERE'D BE A BIG BUTTON THAT SAYS 'CLOSE THE CURTAINS'," Echo-Echo deadpanned, looking around the control panels. Eventually, they saw a button that said 'Close the Curtains', "YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME," the robot teen commented, as Silver slammed the button, which closed the curtains on the Dazzling's. Before the Dazzling's saw the three titans, Silver teleported them out of sight. They teleported to the hill just outside the amphitheater.

"Ok, hopefully that'll give Twilight and the others enough time to escape," Silver said, just as they saw that the curtains were opening again.

"Well, that better be soon," Heiru said, as the sirens began their song. As they began to sing, they saw that Twilight and the others were coming up the hill.

"Hey guys," Silver said.

"Hey boys, so what are we looking at?" Twilight asked.

"The sirens have began their song, so now's the time to play the counter spell," Heiru replied.

"Yeah, but how are we supposed to play it from way up here?" Rainbow Dash demanded. Just then, a car honked its horn. They turned to see a car turning into a DJ table with a girl with electric blue hair and purple glasses behind the table, "Awesome!" Rainbow Dash commented.

"Ok, its now or never," Silver said, as the children all got out of the way, as Twilight and friends began their song.

When the light died down, the Dazzling's had shrunken down to about the same size as the Crusaders. The group quickly ran on stage to see if they were alright, "It looks like my theory was right," Raiden commented.

"So, what happens to them now?" Toby asked.

"Well, without the spirits of the sirens holding them back, they come back from suspended animation, completely un-aged, as if they were never taken over in the first place," Raiden replied.

"What's 'suspended animation'?" Lucky Joy asked.

"Its when a living creatures mind and body are preserved. I guess you could say its somewhat like being frozen in time, never aging, never changing," Raiden replied, as the former Sirens stirred in their sleep, "And it looks like they're coming out of their suspended animation," he said, as the three girls opened their eyes. Looking around them, they had looks of confusion on their faces.

"What happened? Where are we?" Adagio asked.

"Huh, it looks like their memories were affected in someway because of the evil spirits," Silver commented.

"What evil spirits?" Sonata asked.

"The sirens. They were controlling you from those necklaces you girls wore around you necks," Twilight replied, pointing at the shattered fragments.

"Wait a minute, I remember now!" Aria exclaimed.

"Yeah, some admirers of ours gave them to use as birthday presents, but everything after that's just a bug blur," Sonata added.

"Well, you girls are free now, so you can come back with us to Equestria," Nyx said.

"Yeah, I think going home is good," Adagio said, as Raiden helped her stand up, while Echo-Echo helped up Sonata and Heiru helped Aria. The three girls stumbled a little, causing them to fall into the three boys. The six all blushed as the three boys held the girls in their arms. The three girls cuddled closer to them.

"Looks like they like you guys," Silver said, causing his brothers to light up in a shade of red.

"But hold on, what should we do about those broken necklaces?" Echo asked.

"Well, theoretically, when the jewels were destroyed, the spirits of the sirens were destroyed too, but I'm going to take a shard of each of them just to be safe. If they can be repaired, they aren't going to have all the pieces," Raiden said, taking a piece from each of the broken charms.

"That was amazing!" a boy with blue hair said, coming up on stage, and hugging Twilight.

"Well, we'd better head back soon," Silver said.

"Yeah, but before you do, why don't you boys sing an exhibition song?" Principal Celestia offered.

The eight titans looked at each other unsurely, "Uh, we'd love to, but, we aren't exactly a band," Stealth replied.

"Oh come on, I'm sure you'll do great," Twilight said.

"Well, I guess it would hurt," Francisco commented, as the titans all found some instruments, and took their places on the stage.

The whole crowd was wiped into a frenzy as they all cheered for the titans. Taking a bow, the titans rejoined their friends, "That was amazing!" Twilight commented.

"And you boys said you weren't a band," Principal Celestia commented.

"Well, technically we've never held an instrument in our lives, at least up until today," Raiden commented.

"So, you guys were just playing the instruments without any practice?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Pretty much," Icezer replied.

"Well, it still sound great!" Heaven said, latching onto Stealth's leg.

"Well, we'd better head back," Twilight said.

"You guys go on without me," the group turned to Sunset Shimmer, "I think I want to spend some more time in this world before I head back to Equestria," she explained.

"Will we see you again?" Toby asked, sad to see his big sister stay behind.

"Don't worry, you guys haven't seen the last of me," Sunset Shimmer replied, "Besides, Applejack and the girls have the book I gave them, so I can keep in touch with you guys," she added.

"We're sure going to miss you in Equestria," Twilight said.

"And I will miss Equestria, but this is something I want to do," Sunset said, as they all departed for the statue.

After leaving behind the alternate human world, Twilight's group had found themselves back in Twilight's castle, "Oof, oh man, that portal is brutal," Silver commented, as they all stood up. Looking around, he saw that Nyx, Bolt, the beings of harmony, and the Dazzlings had turned back into ponies. Adagio was a unicorn filly, still with her ridiculously huge hair, twice as big as her body. Aria was an earth pony filly. Sonata had turned into a Pegasus filly. They all had the same cutie mark: a diamond with a musical note in the center.

"Is everyone here?" Twilight asked.

"I think so," Cory replied, as everyone got a hold of their bearings.

"Strange, where is everyone?" Raiden asked.

"Yeah, you'd think they'd all be here to greet us," Nyx commented.

"Who are 'they'?" Aria asked.

"Our friends," Toby replied.

"Well, we'd better go find them. At least to let them know we're back," Silver said, as he opened the doors leading to the main hallway. However, as soon as he entered the hallway, he saw a shadow going into the throne room. "What could that be?" he asked, as he and the others walked towards the throne room. Opening the doors, the throne room was dark. Turning on the lights, "SURPRISE!" the group jumped at the surprise.

"W-what is all this?" Twilight asked.

"It a party for Silver and the rest!" Pinkie exclaimed excitedly.

"For us?" Brian asked.

"Yes," Discord said, as he approached the nine children, "You see children, ever since you came here to Equestria, I wanted to make your lives better for you, by becoming your father," he said. The titans and Heaven all had dumbfounded looks, but smiled tearfully nevertheless.

"DADDY!" Heaven yelled, as she jumped into Discords arms.

"You'd really take us as your sons and daughter?" Silver asked.

"Yes," was all Discord said, before the castles front doors were thrown open, and Eris rushed quickly into the throne room.

"Daddy! I finally found you!" Eris cried, as she tried to catch her breath.

"Eris? What's wrong pumpkin?" Discord asked, with Heaven still in his arms.

"I just needed to *wheeze* give this to you," Eris said, giving Discord the dictators diary.

"Why are you giving Dis-er, I mean Dad, your diary?" Silver asked.

"Ok, one, that's not my diary, its the dictators from the city you boys came from. And two, 'Dad'?" Eris asked, looking at her father.

"Yes, I'm adopting them as of today. But why give me that mans diary?" Discord asked.

"Look at the page I bookmarked," Eris said, pointing at the diary, "You guys better see it too," she said, looking at the titans.

Discord lowered the diary to the point where the nine children could see what Eris was talking about. Once they saw the entry, all nine children turned an all new shade of red, "WE KNEW IT!" the nine of the said in anger.

Chapter 21: The Seven Deadly Warriors of New Burbank (Part 1)

Upon teleporting back to New Burbank, the titans quickly made their way to the dictator's mansion, "Boys! Wait!" Discord called, but the titans were too far away to hear him.

When they were close enough, the guards immediately rushed to intercept and arrest the titans, but they were knocked back by Echo-Echo and Silver. Brian then proceeded to melt down the gates leading the front gardens. Rushing inside, the eight boys were confused as to why there were no guards, "That's weird. Why are there no guards?" Stealth asked, just as the rest of their group caught up to them.

"Really boys, you need to be more cautious! We know you're all mad at the dictator, and want to get back at him, but you shouldn't just go rushing in head first!" Eris scolded.

"But John needs to be brought to justice!" Raiden said.

"We know, but you guys need a plan," Twilight said. Just then, a floating metallic eye came flying around the group, "What is that thing?" the lavender alicorn asked, freaked out by the eye, as it looked around. It stopped when it saw the titans and Heaven.

"I don't like the way that things looking at us," Brain commented. Floating back away from the group, it then project a transparent screen. The titans glared angrily at who was one the screen, while Heaven hid behind Eris. One the screen was a man with short, spiky purple hair with white rings around each lock of hair he had.

"Ah, if it isn't the Fujiyama kids. Come to turn yourselves in?" John asked smugly.

"Not quite. We found out what your real plans were!" Silver proclaimed. John still smiled smugly,

"Oh really? Then what are my plans, if you know so much about them?" the dictator asked. Raiden then pulled out the diary that he kept in his hat. John's face paled, and he let out a very feminine squeal, "WHERE DID YOU GET THAT?!" he demanded, still in a high pitched voice.

"How we got it doesn't matter. What does matter is that we know what your real plans are, and we're going to stop it, by any means necessary," Raiden declared. John growled at the response, but an idea popped into his head.

"Well, you won't be able to get to me, at least not yet. You must first battle the seven warriors I've trained to combat you mutants, and defeat them, one by one. If you can do that, then I'll consider facing off against you. How's that sound?" he offered.

"Wait, why can't we just teleport into your chambers, and take you out like that?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"What, and ruin the story?" Twilight asked.

"Besides, there are tons of scenarios like this in anime. We fight the bad guys lackeys, and we then have a huge climatic battle against the big boss," Raiden explained.

"Right, plus it gives the readers something to read," Eris pointed out.

"And I have picked the perfect place for you fools to meet your end," John said, as the ground started to move. Once it stopped moving, the gang of heroes looked to where the mansion was, and it had changed into an entire amusement park, "And once you've all seen the terror of the our merry-go-round and churro stand, you'll be begging for mercy," John said, smiling evilly.

"We'll make you eat those words! Some of us may secretly be scared of churros, but that won't stop us from our mission!" Silver proclaimed, as the group all charged in the park.

John Clark's chambers,

Watching the group of friends rushing into the amusement park, John merely sipped some hot chocolate, "It won't matter if they succeed in defeating my warriors, they'll all end up in my collection," he smiled evilly, as he turned towards the back of his room, revealing multiple jail cells, each holding a teenager or child, looking absolutely miserable, "And that's when the REAL fun will begin," he cackled evilly, as he looked a syringe that was connected to some tubes, "Once I have the mutant serum from the Fujiyama kids, I'll be a one man army," he said vilely.

"You won't get away with this!" Toby cried, as he grasped the bars of his cell. "Our family will stop you!"

"Yeah!" Joshua agreed.

"By the way, Josh, how did we let ourselves get trapped here?" Nyx asked.

"Well..." Cory started.

30 minutes earlier...

After being infuriated by the diary, the gang made it to New Nurbank.

"Alright, guys. We want you to stay clear of John Clark. He is very dangerous." Silver said.

"Ok." the children said, as the titans and the adults left. Suddenly, they turned to see Cory being harassed by a couple of John's guards.

"Let me go!" Cory cried.

"Yeah, right. We must take you to Master John Clark immediately!" a guard taunted.

Nyx and Joshua decided to call attention to them. "Yoo-hoo!"

The guards turned to see the teens and children of harmony taunting at them.

"You call yourselves guards? You are supposed to act like adults, but you're being like a couple of immature kids!" Serenity shouted.

This made the guards enraged at them. They started to charge towards them, but Joshua managed to use his magic to turn the floor slippery, and just like that, the guards slipped and fell unconscious.

"Are you fine, Cory?" Toby asked his friend.

"Yeah. Thanks for helping me out." Cory replied.

"Alright. Hang on, where's Season Harvest?" Mike wondered.

"Over there!" Trinity cried, as she saw Season Harvest running inside John Clark's mansion. They got inside, but what they saw was that they were walking on a skinny bridge. When they looked up, they could see a black shadow on top of a platform.

"Looks like it's time you get in trouble, big time!" the shadow chuckled, as he pressed a switch, causing the bridge to break it's parts, and the children of harmony and teens screamed as they fell.

"Ugh. Where are we?" Toby groaned.

"Why, you are all on my chambers." a voice replied, as the heroes all turned to see a man, smiling evilly.

"So you're John Clark?" Cory asked.

"Yes, I am. And if I were you, which I'm not, you would surrender immediately to me." John Clark replied.

"Yeah? You and what army?" Melody taunted.

The chambers lit on to reveal many henchmen with guns, surrounding our heroes, and pointing their weapons at them.

"Oh, that army." Melody said.

"What do we do now, big brother?" Serenity asked Toby.

"We could try to fight, but..." Toby started. He then held out his arms. "We give up."

Everyone gasped at his action. "Toby, no." Silver Spoon whispered.

John Clark laughed evilly. "What a wise choice to make, my boy. And as for the rest of you kids, do his action."

"Are you sure, Toby?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Yeah. There's a lot of enemies around us, and there's no chance for us to strike now." Toby answered, as looked at the henchmen. "Just go easy with our wrists."

The children of harmony and teens huddled together and then decided to hold out their arms and hooves. Then groups of henchmen proceeded to arrest Toby and the others.

"You can chain my body, but you can never chain my..." Cory said, before a henchmen chained his neck. "...family spirit."

"Would the others avoid the trap?" Nyx asked.

"Let's hope so." Joshua replied, as they were all taken away.

The children and teens were released of their restraints, but were given orange jumpsuits to wear. Guards also put on anti-magic collars on the magic users. Then they pushed the children and teens into the jail cells and the guards locked the cells.

"This is terrible." Toby mumbled, as the others agreed while putting on their jumpsuits.

"Toby, do I look horrible in orange?" Silver Spoon asked.

"Umm... no." Toby answered.

"That's something Mommy Rarity would fear of." Connor said.

Present time...

"Well, that explains everything." Kelly said.

"Now that I've got part of those Fujiyama kids' family, I should send in my mercenaries!" John stated, as a group of cloaked figures wearing kabuki masks walked in, "Ah, yes, the seven deadly warriors of New Burbank!" John said proudly as the cloaked figures cackled. Just then, John noticed something, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight?" there was an awkward silence in the room, "NOW THERE ARE EIGHT OF THEM?!" John asked in shock. He then punched a button, releasing a trap door beneath the eight cloaked figures, dropping them down a chute.

"Master John, why did you do that?!" one of John's henchmen yelled.

"Well, there are eight of them in the seven deadly warriors of New Burbank. I just can't do the math anymore," John replied innocently.

"But the Fujiyama brothers will be attacking one of the prisons! What then?!" the henchman yelled.

"Uh, well, I, uh," John said, trying to come up with an excuse. He then punched the same button, and jumped down the chute himself, "SEE YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" John yelled, chasing after the mercenaries.

"MASTER JOHN!" the henchman called to his master.

"I can't believe Silver and them were on the run from this guy," Cory commented.

"Agreed," Mike said.

Walking around the amusement park, our heroes tried to find the seven deadly warriors of New Burbank, "Alright so where should we start looking?" Silver asked, as they all looked around.

"Lets start in there!" Brian called. The eight brothers all rushed to where Brian was pointing. When the others looked to where they were running, they saw that they had just ran inside an aquarium.

"Boys, I don't think any bad guys will be in there!" Eris called out to her brothers.

"Are we even sure that's an aquarium?" Rarity asked.

"Ah think we have bigger problems. Where are our kids?" Applejack asked. The adults looked around, not seeing any kids, other than Heaven, Timmy, Drake, and Chris. Just then, the aquarium exploded, causing the group to jump. They could see the titans all scattered around. Silver was holding Echo-Echo, supporting the robot teens head.

"What's wrong with him?" Fluttershy asked.

"The blast made him sick," Silver said.

"What happened?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"It was John. He's the kind of guy that would blow up attractions that are loosing money. He doesn't even care if there are people still inside!" Raiden replied, as Silver pulled out an egg, and tapped it against Echo-Echo's head. He then opened it, and looked on the inside, and yelled in distress.

"His temperature's so high, it hard boiled this egg! Now I'll have to have French Toast for breakfast!" Silver yelled.

"BUT I DON'T SPEAK FRENCH TOAST!" Echo-Echo yelled, regaining consciousness.

"What does any of that have to do with this?!" Twilight yelled in annoyance.

"Just what is John up to?!" Rainbow Dash yelled.

Party favors went off, as John Clark and The Seven Deadly warriors wished the other member of the warriors "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"

"Wait, they're celebrating?" Melody asked, as a henchman entered.

"Master John, I regret to inform you that the Fujiyama brothers survived the aquarium explosion!" he said.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" John yelled, making the henchman cower.

"W-what are your orders sir?" the henchman asked.

"Where are they headed to now?" John asked.

"Towards the Vegetarian Eatery, sir!" the henchman replied.

"Another attraction that's loosing money. Alright, blow it up," John ordered. The henchman saluted, and rushed off.

"I'm assuming you would like for us to take our positions?" one of the warriors asked.

"Yes, but first, we eat cake!" John declared, as he sliced the cake, and gave a slice to each of the warriors.

"I didn't know assassins ate cake," Nyx commented bluntly.

"Eh, who doesn't?" Cory commented.

"Alright boys, you can come out of there!" Discord called to the titans, after they ran inside a building that looked like celery. But like the aquarium, it exploded while the titans were still in there. They emerged unscathed, and were crawling with their teeth clenched.

"That was a dirty trick," Raiden said, through his teeth.

"Not cool," Icezer commented.

"Why do we have to talk with our teeth clenched?" Silver asked.

"It makes us sound angrier," Brian replied, as the eight of them crawled inside what looked like an indoor playground.

"Boys, this isn't the time to be playing around!" Eris called out to them, as the rest of the group chased after them.

Entering the playground, they could see kids all around, playing either on jungle gyms, in sandboxes, or just playing with toys, "Alright, so where are they?" Discord asked, as the P.A. turned on.

"Welcome to the 'Be a Kid Zone'," the announcement said. And just then, all the adults shrunk down to kid size.

"What the?!" Filly Rainbow Dash cried.

"What happened to us?" Filly Twilight asked.

"Don't worry, all adults or teenagers shrink to kid size when they enter this place. Even my brothers," Heaven said.

"Wait, those guys are kids now? This, I got to see," Rainbow Dash commented.

"Look! There's some of them now!" Rarity exclaimed, pointing at where some of the Fujiyama brothers were. Turning their heads, they could see Raiden, dressed like a punk, and Brian in a frog costume.

"What'd you want?" Raiden glared, as Brian was simply mindedly chasing a butterfly.

"This is what they were like?" Twilight asked.

"I always thought Raiden was a well mannered young man. And why is Brian dressed up like a frog?" Rarity asked.

"Silver always told me that before I was born, that Brian always wanted to be a froggy, but when he learned that he could never be a froggy, he was devastated," Heaven explained, before turning her attention to Raiden, "And I haven't a clue about Raiden," she stated bluntly.

"Look! There's more of them now!" Twilight exclaimed, pointing in another direction. Looking over, they saw Silver, dressed like a samurai, Icezer, dressed like an artist, Stealth dressed like a composer, Francisco, dressed up like an ice cream man, and Heiru, dressed as a rock star.

"Weird, I could have sworn my pants were longer," Silver said.

"That's what they were like?!" Applejack yelled, her eyes bulging.

"Hold on, where's Echo-Echo?" Discord asked, looking around for the robot teen.

"There he is, over there!" Luna exclaimed, pointing in another direction. They could see Echo-Echo sitting on a bench, admiring himself in a mirror.

"AREN'T I LOVELY?" the robot asked.

"He's in love with himself!" Twilight exclaimed, 'I thought they were strange as teenagers, but they're really bizarre as kids,' Twilight thought to herself.

"Well, now that we found them, let's just go around this place. There may be clues as to how we can find our children," Luna said, as they split up to the parts of "Be a Kid Zone".

At the sandboxes...

Raiden, Celestia, Icezer, Heaven, Discord, Eris, Brain, and Silver got on the sandboxes, while trying to look for their friends. Icezer tapped a kid in the shoulder, who was building a sand castle.

"Excuse me, pal. Have you seem some kids that are named 'Toby', 'Joshua', and several others?" Icezer asked.

The kid began to turn his neck, and met Icezer's eyes with a soulless stare, before he, and the other kids in the sandbox disintegrated, and melded with the sand.

"Oh, crud." Silver muttered.

The kids in the sandbox merged together into a humanoid creature with menacing eyes. It pounded it's chest, as he turned more human like, "How unfortunate that you had to come here," the sand person taunted.

"I take he's one of John's flunkies?" Chris asked.

"His name is The Sand Man! But why is one of the seven deadly warriors of New Burbank here?" Heaven pondered.

"I was stationed here to capture any mutants that were dumb enough to play in the sand box. It was a while, but I eventually caught my quota. And now that you're here, I can capture the Fujiyama brothers. Now, take this, Sand Blaster!" The Sand Man bellowed, as a stream of sand attacked the group. They were all able to successfully dodge the sand, but The Sand Man was persistent, and kept firing blasts of sand at the Fujiyama brothers.

"I can't take this!" Icezer said, as he clasped his hands together.

"Don't bother trying. This area suppresses your mutant powers, so there's no point trying to resist me," Sand Man taunted.

"That's where your wrong, I can still use my psychic powers!" Silver bellowed, as he launched a shockwave of psychic energy at The Sand Man. All that did was scatter pieces of The Sand Man's body.

"Good work Silver, now let me use the paint brush attack to finish him off!" Icezer called, as he struck the Sand Man several times with a paintbrush, which sent the Sand Man flying, and splatting against the floor. Now sooner than he did, he re-built himself back into a physical form.

"Come at me all you want, none of your attacks can harm sand!" the Sand Man taunted, as he charged the brothers. But when he got close enough, he fell into a pit.

"Ha! See guys, I told you my pit fall would work!" Francisco said. His brothers all rolled their eyes.

"Do you really think a pit fall will keep me down?" Sand Man taunted, as he looked down, only to see that the pit kept going on and on, "ITS BOTTOMLESS! Somebody could really get hurt in this thing, ya know?" he yelled, as his eyes bulged. He then climbed out of the pit trap.

"This guy's persistent," Silver commented, as the Sand Man armed himself with a ball launcher.

"Alright, I lost a lot o' sand with that little stunt," he seethed, as he fired rubber balls at the eight brothers.

"I got this! We need a shield!" Raiden bellowed, as he grabbed Brian, and used him as a shield. The balls hit him, one after another, leaving the frog dressed kid dazed.

"Echo-Echo, get in there!" Silver ordered.

"BUSY!" the robot replied, admiring himself in the mirror.

"Get in there!" Silver yelled, throwing the robot at the Sand Man. The action knocked the Sand Man to the floor.

"Oh my, are you alright?" Fluttershy asked, concerned for the robot.

"THAT WAS SO UNCALLED FOR SILVER! NO ONE DAMAGES MY BEAUTIFUL FACE!" Echo-Echo yelled at his brother, "I THINK HE CAUSED A WRINKLE," the robot commented, looking in a mirror.

"Bah, I'm not out yet," Sand Man said, glaring at the eight brothers.

"Oh, really? Have you heard that ogres are like onions?" Raiden said, before pulling a bucket of water.

"Yeah. Why?" Sand Man asked.

"They both have layers. But you know what sand and water have in common?" Raiden said.

"What?"

"They both are easily destroyed!" Raiden cried, before he released a valve, and a wave of water washed Sand Man away.

"NNNNOOO!!!!!" Sand Man screamed, as he got swept away. In doing so, a nearby wall exploded.

"What's this now?" Twilight pondered, as the group ventured through the wall. When they did, they were appalled at the sight of several jail cells, each one holding one or two teens of kids.

"This is one of John's many prisons!" Raiden exclaimed.

"I guess taking down Sand Man revealed the entrance," Celestia commented.

"If that's the case, then we need to defeat all of the Warriors to rescue our friends, both old and new," Silver said, as he and his brothers worked on releasing all the imprisoned mutants. All the imprisoned mutants all cheered as the escaped. One girl mutants tackled Stealth to the ground.

"Akira! I knew you would come back for me, nya," she exclaimed, cuddling close to the ninja. The girls appeared to be very cat like. She had cat ears, a long tail, and a kitten themed outfit. She also has spikey brown hair, and green, cat like eyes.

"Hey Naomi," Stealth said.

"Who's this 'Akira' person? And whose your little friend Stealth?" Eris asked.

"My real name is Akira. And as for who she is, her name is Naomi. She's a mutant, just like me and my brothers," Stealth explained.

"So what are her powers?" Rainbow Dash asked, looking at the cat girl.

"Well, its not so much powers. Lets just say that growing up, Naomi was raised by cats, and eventually became cat like herself," Stealth explained.

"And what do you mean by 'real name'?" Discord asked, quirking an eyebrow.

"Well, after we all mutated, some of us chose to change our names to better suit our new powers. Actually, among my brother and I, Echo-Echo and I are the only ones who changed their names," Stealth explained.

"Really? Then what was Echo-Echo's real name?" Discord asked.

"Takashi," Silver replied.

"You guys really are something else," they all heard a girls voice say. Turning to the source, the Fujiyama brother's faces all paled at who they saw. It was a young girl with long red hair, brown eyes, and in a full suit of knights armor.

"Uh, you think, Eliza?" Raiden nervously asked.

"Yep," Eliza replied, slamming Raiden's head against her metal breastplate.

"That hurt!" Raiden commented.

"Well, now that we've got a large enough attack force, we can go and take down that jerk!" Rainbow Dash declared.

"Now hold on. There are still a bunch of other prisons across this amusement park. We'll need to take down each of the remaining Warriors if we want to stand a chance against John Clark," Eliza said.

"Eliza's right. But we can all do it, not just for justice, but for all our friends! Both old and new!" Silver declared.

"Down with the dictator!" all the released mutants chanted, as they left the "Be a Kid Zone".

Back at John Clark's chambers...

John Clark was still passing out cake to his henchmen. As he handed out the last slice of cake, a light was shining from a monitor, "Hmm, so Sand Man has fallen," John commented.

"Shall we take our stations?" one of the Warriors asked.

"Yes. If Sand Man has been defeated, then no doubt the prison he was guarding was destroyed as well," John replied, as all but one of the warriors left, "You are not leaving?" he asked.

"No, I think I'll stay here and be the last of the Warriors," the last warrior, obviously a girl, replied, as she left the room.

"Which reminds me something." John Clark said, before walking to the Children of Harmony. "I wanted to bring you cake, but I've ran out all of it!" He threw the empty plate of cake with crumbs on it in front of Silver Spoon. "Maybe you could eat the crumbs off the plate."

After that insult, John Clark and his henchmen laughed hysterically while the children glared at them in annoyance.

"If you're going to be a villain, act like one." Toby muttered, before John Clark came to him and grabbed him by the neck.

"I am one, pinhead!" John growled, before throwing Toby back at his cell.

"Sweetie pie, are you okay?" Silver Spoon asked in worry.

"I'm fine, Silver Spoon. We just have to wait for our family to save us." Toby choked.

Chapter 22: The Seven Deadly Warriors of New Burbank (part 2)

Exiting the "Be a Kid Zone", everyone reverted back into their adult and or teenage forms, "It feels so good to be back in my teenage body, nya," Naomi commented.

"I agree," Twilight added.

"I never got a chance to play," Silver sadly commented, falling to his knees, "Eliza, this is all your fault!"

"Why're you blaming me?!" Eliza demanded.

"Tell me where John Clark is, NOW!" Silver bellowed, flipping a random table over.

"Right, John Clark's main headquarters is located in his palace at the very northern part of this amusement park," Eliza replied.

"Eliza's right, but we need to be carefully. Like the Sand Man, there are six other bloodthirsty warriors waiting to take us down," one of the other mutants said.

"WE'RE READY!" Echo-Echo bellowed, punching Stealth as hard as he could in the gut.

"We'll play later. Right now we need to take down John Clark!" Silver declared. Everyone cheered at his heroic words. Brian was then babbling nonsense.

"What's wrong with your brother?" Eliza asked.

"He's gone delusional," Stealth replied.

"Right. When he found out he wasn't allowed to play, he just started playing by himself," Raiden explained further, as Brian knocked out Icezer, and ran away, carrying the icy teenager over his shoulder.

"He just kidnapped Icezer!" Eris yelled.

"Let him go. He needs time to gather his composure," Silver said.

"For now, we should split up and hunt down the warriors," Raiden suggested.

"I'll go any where with Akira, nya," Naomi said, hugging Stealth's arm. The ninja blushed at his girlfriend's kind words.

"Well, then we'd better get a move on. Who knows what's happening to our friends?" Silver said, as everyone went off to take down separate warriors, leaving only Silver, Stealth, Echo-Echo, Eliza, Naomi, Heaven, Fluttershy, Twilight, Discord and Eris. It was right then and there when Silver took notice of a building that looked to be made entirely out of cookies and candy, "The bad guys are in there! I can just feel it!" Silver exclaimed happily.

"WE'RE COMING IN!" the five mutants and Heaven all exclaimed.

"Something tells me they just want to eat the sweets," Eris deadpanned.

"My, my, your predictions are as sharp as Master John said, Silver," a mysterious black haired man in matching black attire said. The moment the mutants saw him, they fell to the floor.

"WE JUST WANTED SOME SWEETS!" they all cried, as Fluttershy and Eris joined them.

"So, this guys another of John's flunkies?" Eris asked.

"Yeah, his name is Mortimer Jackson, but everyone knows him as 'Claws'. He's another member of the Seven Deadly Warriors," Eliza said, as Heaven looked around the building.

"Wow, there so many cookies and candies!" she exclaimed happily.

Claws' nails then became much longer, "My fingernails grow when they thirst for blood. It cost me a fortune in manicures. Now take this, HUNTING CLAW!" Claws bellowed, as he threw his elongated fingernails at the mutants, who did their best to fight them off, while Heaven, Fluttershy and Eris ducked out of the way. Unfortunately, Heaven was hit by one of Claws' nails. Eris then pulled the young girl out of the way.

"Alright, we need to deal with these nails!" Eliza said, as he arm took the form of a long sword, and started to battle back against Claws' nails.

"I'll help you, nya," Naomi said, as she took off her gloves, revealing her razor sharp cat like nails, which she used to help Eliza.

"Allow me to assist," Silver said, as he used his psychic powers to charge Eliza's sword arm and Naomi's claws with psychic energy. This in turn increased the power of the two girl's attacks. Silver and his two brothers then rushed over to where the others were at.

"Is everyone alright?" Silver asked. He then saw Fluttershy and Eris wrapping a piece of cloth around Heaven's arms, "Heaven, are you alright?!" he asked in shock.

"Don't worry, I'm ok," Heaven replied.

"IT WAS HIS FINGERNAILS," the three of them said in a dark tone, turning his attention back to the battle.

"I'm impressed a couple of girly girls can keep up with my nails. But I will scratch you all like a cat on a scratching post," Claws said.

"Oh yeah? Well listen up, Claws. No one gets to hurt my little sister. And no crummy cat like you can stand up to, DOGFACE!" Silver said, putting on a wolf mask.

"WHAT?! I just hope he's been fixed!" Claws commented, his eyes bulging.

"Super Steel Fang Woof-Woof!" Silver bellowed, as he threw a punch, destroying the balcony that Claws was standing on.

"What kind of attack is called 'Woof-Woof'?!" Eris demanded, as Silver got back up on his feet.

"Remember, when Wolfy needs to eat, he likes a tasty, fishy treat," Silver said, still wearing the wolf mask, holding a box of fish food.

"He's a spokesman now?" Eliza asked Naomi.

"I don't know, nya. Lets just roll with it, nya," Naomi replied.

"Why you... Cuticle Cutter!" Claws bellowed, as he launched his nails back at the teenagers.

"LEAVE THIS TO MY SONIC BARRIER!" Echo-Echo bellowed, as he used his sonic cannons to form a barrier. Unfortunately, it did nothing to block Claws' nails, but the robot didn't notice it, as it slashed through some of the clothing of the other four, "THAT WORKED RATHER NICELY, HUH?" the robot asked.

"Get in there!" Eliza bellowed, as she threw the three brothers at Claws.

"I'm impressed. They're all treating this Claws guy as if he were a child. But there's something off about Silver and his brothers," Eris commented, noticing how drained the three brothers looked.

"What do you mean?" Discord asked.

"I don't know. I just can't put my talon on it," Eris replied. It was then when she realized what was going on, as a vision of each of their brothers came into her mind.

"So, you finally figured it out?" vision Brian said to Eris.

"Of course. Its because their brothers aren't here. Without them, they can't show their true power. I have to do something!" Eris said, as Claws launched another attack. But before it collided, something jumped out in front of the teenagers. It was Eris, dressed up in a costume that looked like Brain, 'Now that it appears their brother has joined up with them, they can go all out,' Eris proudly thought to herself, turning to her brothers.

"No one impersonates our brothers like we do!" Silver bellowed, as he, Stealth, and Echo-Echo were dressed up in costumes that looked like Heiru, Francisco, and Raiden. Eris was bewildered at this. And it was then when Eliza and Naomi realized what they had in common; they were the only teenage girls among this group of heroes.

"There's no type of Fujiyama, like the genuine article," Eliza said to Eris. Eris fell to her knees as she said that.

"Then this was all for nothing," she said.

"Oh, hey Brain. Did you loose a contact?" Heaven asked, not realizing that it was just Eris in disguise.

"Alright guys, time to clip this guys nails for good," Stealth said.

"No one touches my nails, except Maurice," Claws said, as his nails took on the form of snakes, "Serpents of Darkness!" Claws taunted.

"Leave this to me," Eliza said, as she morphed her arms into paintbrushes, and charged straight into the oncoming snake attack, striking each of the serpent like nails with her paintbrush arms, "Feel the thrill, of acrylic thrills! GLAMOUROUS NAILS!" she bellowed, as pictures of butterflies and flowers appeared on each on Claws' nails.

"What a beautiful design," one of the nails said.

"Its such a cute design," another nail commented.

"I look three years younger!" another added.

"Who would've thought we'd look this gorgeous?" one nail asked.

"We can't battle any more!" another nail commented.

"YOU WHAT!? This is worse than press on nails!" Claws yelled in distress.

"Without your fingernails, you can no longer hammer out a decent attack. This being said, you're now vulnerable to attack," Silver explained.

"Now, for the finishing attack, nya!" Naomi called, as Silver charged her nails with psychic energy, "TAKE THIS, nya!" Naomi bellowed, as she clawed at Claws' face, sending him careening into a wall.

"WE'LL DESTROY ANYONE WHO HURTS OUR SISTER! GOT THAT?!" the three brothers roared.

"Remind me never to get on their bad side," Fluttershy whispered to Twilight and Discord.

"Noted," Discord replied.

"I found lots of candies!" Heaven commented, looking into her purse, which was filled to the brim with cookies and candies.

Just then, a wall opened up to reveal the prison that Claws had been guarding, "Another prison," Twilight said.

"I'm pretty sure this is the control panel," Stealth said, pointing to a nearby computer. Naomi then took it upon herself to slice the computer apart. No sooner than when she finished, the bars holding each of the captured mutants were lowered, and every mutant that were captured exited their cells. They all rejoiced in their freedom.

"We're free!" one mutant cried.

"Finally free!" another cried. Three boys approached the group of heroes.

"Well, I figured you'd come back to help us," one of the boys commented. He was about the same height as Silver and his brothers. He had shaggy brown hair, blue eyes.

"Good to see you again Takanosuke," Silver commented.

"Ya know, I could have bust us out of here a long time ago, if I got the chance," another boy said. He was a little taller than the three brothers. He had dark tan skin, dark brown hair, and brown eyes.

"Hey, they just saved your lives!" Twilight said.

"ITS ALRIGHT, TWILIGHT. SORA CAN BE A TAD DIFFICULT AT TIMES, BUT DEEP DOWN, HE'S REALLY SOMEONE YOU CAN RELY ON," Echo-Echo replied.

"I take these guys are new friend of yours?" the third boy asked. He was the shortest of the three. He had well kept blonde hair and blue eyes.

"They are Leon," Stealth replied.

"So, who exactly are these guys?" Eris asked Eliza and Naomi.

"Their names are Takanosuke, Sora, and Leon," Eliza replied.

"They're otherwise known as the 'Pretty Boy Trident', nya," Naomi added. Then, she and Eliza were picked up bridal style by Takanosuke and Leon, respectively.

"My, my, you ladies are looking lovelier each day," Takanosuke commented.

"I agree. The sun must be lucky to grace such lovely faces like yours each day," Leon added. Sora then presented each girls with milkshakes.

"Here, I made these for the both of you. But don't think for a minute it means I have a thing for either of you," Sora said, looking away from the two.

"Meow?" was all Naomi could say.

"Looks like these boys are the types that any girl could fall for," Eris whispered to Fluttershy and Twilight.

"Yeah, pretty boy charm, knowing what to say to a girl, and that Sora boy seems to be the type that plays hard to get," Fluttershy commented. They then heard three crashes. Looking over, they saw that Eliza had punched each of them into a wall.

"If I told Zach once, then you three will remember to stay far away from me," Eliza angrily seethed.

"So cruel, yet, still lovely," Takanosuke commented.

"She's definitely Zach's girlfriend, that's for sure," Leon added.

"I told you I have no love interest for Zach!" Eliza angrily retorted. She then felt a chill go up her spine.

"Ah, Eliza, what an intoxicating parfum you have. It still drives me crazy!" another, more mature sounding boy said. He was the shortest of the rescued mutants. He had messy red hair and green eyes. Eliza was getting angrier.

"I told you to stay far away from me!" Eliza angrily yelled, as she punched the boy hard across the face.

"Man!" the boy said, as he had a blissful smile on his face, as he was sent careening into a wall.

"That wasn't very nice," Twilight scolded.

"Ah, don't worry about it. Zach is the type of guys that's hard to put down. He gets on Eliza's nerves, yeah, but he means well," Silver explained.

"So, how did you guys free us?" Leon asked.

"We're leading a rebellion against John Clark," Silver boldly stated. All the mutants they rescued had looks of awe and shock.

"Are you guys crazy?!" one mutant demanded.

"John Clark is a monster!" another added.

"He's been absorbing the powers of every mutant he has behind bars!" Sora added.

"Don't worry guys. We have dirt on John Clark, so our rebellion is justified," Eliza replied.

"Yeah, but he has an entire army at his disposal!" Leon stated.

"Which is why we're all making an army of our own," Silver replied.

"Silver's right. Our brothers are all working to defeat the Seven Deadly Warriors. As far as I can tell, two warriors have been taken down," Stealth added.

"Two of the most deadly warriors?!" Takanosuke demanded.

"They were specially trained to deal with mutants!" Sora added.

"Well, to be honest, The Sand Man was easy to deal with," Stealth replied.

"If that's the case, they should be easy pickings," Zach said, completely unfazed by Eliza's punch.

"WELL SAID, ZACH, SIR!" the Pretty Boy Trident all said in unison.

"As we speak, the others are all working on freeing other prisoned mutants," Twilight said.

"Which means we need to lend them support!" one mutant exclaimed. Everyone there cheered in agreement.

Meanwhile, in a library,

"Oww, what hit me?" Icezer asked, as he regained consciousness. Looking around him, he saw toys of all kinds; paddleballs, jacks, tops.

"Oh, I've so many toys," he then looked up to see Brian, being pampered by a couple of bears, "And yet, I still want more," he said in a high class accent.

"WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA KNOCKING ME OUT!" Icezer yelled angrily at his brother, grapping him by the collar of his shirt.

"Cool your jets. I have a feeling one of the seven deadly warriors is here," Brian said, looking around the empty library.

"Really? What kind of assassin would be here of all places?" Icezer asked. Just then, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash joined them.

"So here you guys are," Rainbow Dash said.

"Sorry for running off like that, but I got a feeling there's going to be another fight here," Brian said, showing them the library.

"Why would any assassin be here?" Rarity asked.

"I wouldn't be too sure," the five of them turned to see a medium height man with messy red hair and green eyes.

"Its one of them!" Brian said, igniting his fists.

"My name is Bard. I'm the chief of the Seven Deadly Warriors," Bard said, as he jumped off of the book he was standing on.

"But, before I destroy you, I like to know the names of those I destroy," Bard said.

"Well, I am, Dragon Knight, Gulzark!" Brian exclaimed.

"And I am Holy Knight, Gaia!" Icezer added.

"YOU'RE NOT KNIGHTS!" Rarity and Rainbow Dash yelled.

"I got it. 'Dragon Knight, Gulzark', and, 'Holy Knight, Gaia'!" Bard bellowed, as the words he just said came into being, quite literally. Two knights emerged from the words, and swung their swords at the two brothers.

"What just happened?!" Rainbow Dash demanded.

"That 'Bard' person just summoned the words and then used them to attack!" Rarity replied.

"That's right. My powers allow me to tap into the power of words. It gives new meaning to the phrase, 'Attacked by your own name'," Bard explained.

"I knew I should have call myself 'Sergeant Scaredy Pants'," Brian commented.

"Next time, I'm calling myself 'Captain Bikini Model' instead," Icezer added.

"You guys are pathetic!" Rarity seethed.

"But before we go any further, I'll put up my defenses," Bard said, as he conjured up some large words that were all written in Japanese, "Fire Barrier, Ice Barrier, and Thunder Barrier. Now I'm safe from all manner of attack," Bard said.

"You think so? Those words won't be able to protect you," Icezer said confidently.

"Why's that?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Yes, enlighten us," Bard insisted.

"Because we don't know how to read!" Icezer said, as he and Brian went on the attack.

"Not one single word!" Brian added.

"I can't believe it. They're actually proud they can read a word," Rarity said, her tears falling like waterfalls. As they got closer, the three barriers blasted the two brothers back to where they started.

"I never thought that Fire Barrier would affect me," Brian commented.

"Ice attacks shouldn't even work on me," Icezer said.

"My word attacks bypass your mutant resistances, and inflicts damage, regardless if your of that same element," Bard explained.

"We need away around those words, but what?" Brian asked, as he and Icezer pondered solutions.

Meanwhile on John Clark's chambers...

Toby, Joshua, Cory, and Kelly, and all the others sat in the cell, waiting for their friends and family to come and rescue them. As they were sulking, John came in, looking very annoyed, "What do you want?" Nyx asked in irritation.

"Your friends, the Fujiyama Brothers are proving to be more meddlesome than I originally thought," John said, as he motioned to the monitors, "They've already taken down two of the seven deadly warriors. And as I speak, two more battles are being waged," John said.

"That's our friends for you! They never give up!" Toby exclaimed.

"Well, we'll see how tough they are when they take on the seventh, and deadliest of the seven warriors," John said, banging the bars with a baton, before taking his leave.

"I'm not worried. Silver and them took down not only that Chaos creature, but the Siren Spirits as well," Cory said.

"But who or what is the seventh warrior?" Mike pondered.

Chapter 23: The Seven Deadly Warriors of New Burbank (part 3)

Meanwhile, in a driving course,

A mysterious figure stood in the middle of what appeared to be a driving course attraction, "Hehehe, which ever of those foolish Fujiyama brothers enters here, they'll be destroyed the minute they set a pinkie toe onto this course," the figure said. Just then, he noticed Raiden, Francisco, Heiru, Celestia, Luna, Chris, Timmy, Drake, Applejack and Pinkie Pie approaching the driving course.

"Think this is one of those arenas?" Applejack asked.

"Possibly, but it may be unlikely," Raiden replied.

"That's where you're wrong!" they all heard the mysterious figure say, "I'm Auto, the best looking of the Seven Deadly Warriors!" Auto said, as he came out of the shadows. He was just a man with a car for a head, "And how unfortunate for you, that you've come here. My arena is the deadliest of all the ones in the park. This is where the signs are possessed, and your driving instructors are zombies!" Auto exclaimed evilly.

"You fiend!" Luna said, as she began charging her horn. She was stopped by Celestia.

"Hold on Luna. This is their fight, not ours. So we mustn't interfere," Celestia said. Reluctantly, Luna nodded.

"And guess what, the cars here are possessed, so when you try to drive them, they attack you!" Auto exclaimed, as a couple cars attack him instead of our heroes, "Oh yeah, the street signs are also possessed, so they trick you into going the wrong way, and you get lost forever!" Auto exclaimed, as he was running around, as his street signs were getting him lost, "And just before your driving test, the zombies blindfold you, so you can't see!" Auto exclaimed, as he was pulled back by the zombies, "These zombies may be chewing on me, but they're coming for you!" Auto exclaimed, before realizing something, "HEY! Have you zombies forgotten who you work for?!?" Auto yelled at the zombies, cars, and signs.

"Sorry, but they aren't going to loose," Timmy said, from inside Auto's head.

"Hey! Who said you can drive my head?! GET OUTOF MY HEAD!" Auto demanded, but Timmy chose to remain inside Auto's head, "Why you..." Auto cut himself off when an idea popped in his head, 'Maybe I can use this to my advantage,' he thought to himself.

"What are you doing Timmy?!" Luna demanded, her eyes bulging at the sight of her son in Auto's head.

"I have an idea. How's about we form teams? This little tyke will be my partner," Auto cackled evilly as the doors on his head locked, trapping Timmy inside.

"We need to be carful in how we take on Auto. We can't afford to harm Timmy," Raiden said.

"Leave that bit to me. You guys focus on Auto," Francisco said, as he used his spacial powers to pull Timmy out of Auto's head.

"Timmy, I'm so glad your safe!" Luna exclaimed, "Careful next time!" she said.

"Ok Mommy," Timmy replied.

"Alright, now that Timmy's out of harms way, we can now attack Auto!" Raiden exclaimed, as he and Heiru went to attack Auto.

"I don't think so! Go get them you possessed cars!" Auto ordered to the cars, who all charged at the two brothers. Raiden was able to stop them with just his bare hands, "No, part one of his test he passed. He stopped the cars without hitting the gas! That means I have to give him a perfect score on his parking! Go get them you possessed signs!" Auto ordered. Heiru was the one who stopped the signs by slashing through them, "No, part two, its so grand! He makes signals by using his hands! Another perfect score for turning! Alright zombies, now its your turn!" Auto ordered. The three brothers combined their might to take down the zombies, "NO! Well, attack them all together!" Auto ordered, and one after another, cars, signs, and zombies all charged at the three brothers, "Welp, there's no way they'll survive an onslaught like that, so I'll go ahead and mail away their failed test scores," Auto said proudly. He was stopped by an explosion from behind him. Looking back towards the three brothers, he saw the three of them, standing on top of his henchmen.

"Don't go mailing that letter," Raiden said, as his, and his brothers power began to build up.

'N-no way! I never thought they'd be THIS strong! Could it be that I am the only one who never passed the driving test?!' Auto thought to himself.

Back with Toby and the gang...

Nyx, Sweetie Belle, and the other magic users tried to pry the magic blockers off themselves, but it wasn't working. Toby, Cory, Nathan, and the others tried to find a way to escape, but every time they found one, they get electrocuted by their tags. "This isn't working," Cory finalized. It was then when it dawned on Nyx.

"I've got it!" she exclaimed.

"So, what's the plan?" Cory asked.

"We should escape." Nyx said.

"But how would that work? It's not like we can just walk at the front door. We could try to fool them in disguises." Toby agreed.

"Yeah, but we can't go all at once. Some of us stay here for watch, and alert us in case someone comes to check on us." Silver Spoon planned.

"Group 1 will be Toby, Joshua, Cory, Kelly, me, Silver Spoon, Apple Bloom, and Season Harvest. Group 2 will be Serenity, Trinity, Vibrant Sky, Crystal, Nathan, and Sweetie Belle. Group 3 will be the rest of the kids. Group 1 will tell the guards they need to 'use' the restroom. While in there, Cory will put some microphones on some of John Clark's top henchmen on their necks. If they are not there, then Joshua will ask for some more toilet paper to 'use'. Toby and Cory will trip the henchmen unconscious, and Joshua will wrap them, and will close the restrooms with disabling the locks. Then Group 1 will wear the henchmen's clothes, and will try to see John Clark's latest scheme. Then they will try to get the keys to our cells." Diamond Tiara planned.

"Right. As our cells open, Group 2 will go to the kitchen. They will find any weapon of use to ambush more of John's minions. Then during at a few minutes, they will try to make a distraction for the remaining deadly warriors of some sort." Apple Bloom said.

"And Group 3 will reunite with Group 1 and Group 2 to team up together to take out John Clark. Then we will send some signals to our family that we are fine." Scootaloo said.

"Alright!" the children cheered as they high-fived/hoofed.

Back with the battle against Bard,

Explosions could be seen, as Bard did his best to keep up with Brian and Icezer's attacks, as the two brothers barraged Bard with ice and fire blasts, "I got to admit, you guys are more powerful than what Master John had told me and the other warriors," Bard said.

"Well, you're not too bad a fighter yourself," Brian commented, as he flung another fireball at Bard. Bard retaliated by summoning a fire barrier to block the fireball.

"Of course, you're not much of a fighter if you just use defense," Icezer said, as he flung some icicles at Bard, who blocked them with an ice barrier.

"Man, these barriers are a real pain," Brian commented.

"We can't land a solid attack on him unless we get rid of them," Icezer added. Then, it dawned on him, "I got it!" Icezer said, as he whispered his plan to his brother.

"That could actually work!" Brian exclaimed. Bard, along with Rarity and Rainbow Dash had curious looks on their faces.

"What are you two up to?" Bard asked. But his eyes widened in fear as the two brothers began to fuse their fire and ice powers together, "No, you can't be serious!?" Bard demanded, as the power between the two brothers began to build up even more.

"What's going on?!" Rainbow Dash wondered.

"I have no idea, but if I were to guess, Brian and Icezer are combining their powers for an even bigger attack," Rarity theorized.

"But I thought those two had polar opposite powers? How can they combine them?" Rainbow Dash asked. Out of nowhere, Pinkie appeared in a lab coat.

"Perhaps Professor Pinkie Pie can explain!" Pinkie exclaimed, as she pulled out a chalkboard, "You see, the Fujiyama brothers, as well as many more of the mutants have the ability to combine their powers to form an even stronger attack. This is what is referred to as a 'Unison Raid'. Two Mutants are the required number in order to use this new super strong super power. Normally, as Rainbow Dash said, fire and ice would cancel one another out, but in the case of Brian and Icezer, since the two are brothers, they can easily bypass this logic, and form an attack that possess the forces of fire and ice. The other Fujiyama brothers, along with their friends, like Eliza and Naomi, are able to use Unison Raids as well. For example, if Brian and Raiden were to do a Unison Raid, seeing as they posses fire and thunder attributes respectively, the two powers would double each others attack strength tenfold. And with that, class is dismissed!" Pinkie said, as she disappeared behind some books.

"I don't think any of us will ever understand that mare," Rarity commented. Just then, a massive explosion could be heard, which brought hers and Rainbow Dash's attention back to the fight. All around the library, fire and ice could be seen scattered across the floor, as Bard fell to the floor, completely unconscious.

"Wow!" was all Rainbow Dash could say. Just then, a wall disintegrated, revealing the prison that Bard was guarding.

"Another prison," Rarity said, as Brian smashed up the computer holding all the captured mutants, releasing them.

"We're free!" one of the mutants happily cried.

"'Dear Diary, today is probably the happiest in all my life!'" another mutant said, writing in her diary. It was then when a girl, and three boys approached the four rescuers. The girl was dressed up like a farm girl, with red hair in braids, and blue eyes. Her attire consisted of a black t-shirt and overalls. One of the boys had ridiculously large eyebrows, and was dressed in an oriental outfit, similar to Raiden's. Another of the boys had pale green hair, and the type of clothing a higher class person would wear. The third boy was the most muscular of the three boys. He had shaggy orange hair and green eyes.

"Hey guys, good to see you all again," Brian said.

"Well it sure took you long enough!" the third boy angrily yelled.

"Don't be rude Lucas," the large eyebrow boy scolded.

"Don't worry Simon. Its all cool," Icezer said.

"Well, we're sure glad y'all came to rescue us," the country girl commented.

"I agree with Cassidy. It was a true stroke of luck when you all came along," the regal dressed boy said, eyeing Icezer with a glare, "So, still talented with your ice powers?" he asked.

"I am Carlos, and I bet I can beat you without trying!" Icezer said, butting heads with Carlos.

"I wouldn't bet on that, poser!" Carlos retorted.

"Are they always like this?" Rainbow Dash whispered to Rarity and the other mutants.

"You have NO idea," Simon replied.

"You may have best Bard, but you will pose no threat to me," a voice said, as the two brothers, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and the four new friends were engulfed in black fire, and transported away.

"Where'd they go?!" one of the mutants demanded.

Back at the fight with Auto,

The battle had been greatly tipped in the favor of the three brothers, as Auto struggled to keep standing, 'Man, these outlaws are even more powerful than what Master John had told me. I just hope the others are having better luck than I am,' Auto thought to himself.

"Are you ready to admit defeat?" Raiden asked, as he began charging more electricity.

"Never! I am a law enforcement officer, trained to deal with mutants like you!" Auto snapped. It was then when an idea hit him. 'Of course! I may not be able win against them in a physical battle, but maybe I can bribe them into letting me win!' Auto smirked on the inside at his plan, "Hold on boys. Lets not fight," Auto said.

"What are you on about?" Francisco asked.

"I tell you what, you boys give me a shopping list, I'll go get what you want. What do you say?" Auto asked, as the three brothers wrote down their shopping lists, 'Heh, this is perfect, while they're distracted, I can strike!' Auto thought to himself. However, his face was met with three fists.

"Here's our shopping lists!" Heiru angrily bellowed.

"How can you be done so quick!?!? Take your time making them! At least make them poetic!" Auto snapped back.

The three brothers shot each other questioning looks, "Poetic shopping lists?" Raiden asked, quirking an eyebrow.

"Well, yeah," Auto replied. He was then met with a series of attacks from the three brothers.

"Not happening!" Raiden bellowed, as Auto fell to the ground, completely unconscious.

"Besides, how can we even put a shopping list into poem form?" Heiru asked.

"That does sound rather difficult," Celestia commented. Just then, a ramp opened up in the middle of the course, leading down to a lower level. Going down the ramp, the group found the prison that Auto had been guarding, "This prison seems larger than the first one," Celestia commented.

"Most likely it was used to hold more mutants," Raiden said, as he destroyed the computer holding the mutants. The cells opened up, and all the mutants rejoiced in their freedom. Three girls approached the group. One was wearing a dress that had a spider web design on it. She had pale blonde hair and green eyes. The second girl was dressed in oriental attire, similar to Raiden's outfit. She had dark purple hair and blue eyes. The third girl had tan skin, and had black hair and blue eyes.

"Well, this certainly is a surprise," the first girl commented.

"Agreed, but nevertheless, we're grateful for you guys rescuing us," the second girl said.

"It was our pleasure Claire," Raiden replied.

"Are these friends of yours?" Celestia asked.

"Yeah, their names are Claire, Maria, and April," Francisco replied, motioning to the girls in respective order, wrapping an arm around April's shoulder. April in turn, cuddled closer to Francisco.

"If I were to guess, the three of you have defeated Auto?" Claire asked.

"Yeah, and The Sandman," Raiden replied.

"But why? The Seven Warriors of New Burbank have been trained to deal with all types of mutant power," Maria commented, as Francisco and April made out with each other, "WILL YOU TWO STOP FOR JUST A SECOND!" Maria hissed.

"The reason is in here," Raiden said, pulling John Clark's diary from his hat.

"Wow, even Naomi wouldn't decorate her diary this girly," Claire commented, as Raiden opened the diary up to the page that sparked their rebellion. When the girls finished reading it, they were outraged.

"Oh, this means war!" April exclaimed.

"Master John doesn't have time to play with you kids, but I on the other hand," a girls voice said, as the three brothers, three girls, and the rest of the group were engulfed in black fire. When the flames disappeared, they were all gone.

Chapter 24: The Seven Deadly Warriors of New Burbank (part 4)

Silver's group, now accompanied by Zach and the Pretty Boy Trident, walked through the amusement park, in search of more of the Seven Deadly Warriors, "I don't sense any more of them," Stealth commented.

"Yes, I can't seem to pick up any of their parfum," Zach added.

"Maybe their laying low?" Eris wondered.

"Most likely. I would assume that they're conserving their power to strike us down when our guards are down," Eliza theorized.

"If that's the case, we may be operating at a disadvantage," Takanosuke commented.

As they walked, two columns of black fire erupted from out of nowhere, catching the group off guard, "What is this? Some kind of black fire?" Silver pondered, inspecting the flames.

"Silver, step back!" Discord called. Silver did as he was told, and took a step back.

"Such raw power. I've never felt anything like this before," Eris commented. As the flames disappeared, the group saw the other two groups, now joined by their new friends.

"GUYS!" Echo-Echo said, as the group rushed to their side.

"What just happened?" Cassidy asked, still shaken by the black fire.

"I don't know, I didn't sense any temperature from that fire," Brian replied.

"Fire without temperature? This most certainly is unheard of," Discord commented.

"So, what happened with you guys?" Eliza asked.

"Hard to say. After we defeated that Bard guy, and freed Cassidy, Simon, and Lucas, we heard the voice of a young girl, who sounded to be around the same age as Heaven, and then we found ourselves engulfed in that black fire," Icezer replied. Carlos head-butted Icezer.

"Did you forget I was there as well?!" Carlos demanded.

"No, I just didn't feel like mentioning you!" Icezer argued.

"That's enough you two!" Eliza said, breaking up the two boys.

"You know, now that you mention it, we heard a voice about the same age as Heaven before we got engulfed," Francisco mentioned.

"Strange. First black fire, and a voice of a girl about the same age as your sister. Could it be a coincidence?" Simon asked.

"Speaking of your sister, where is she, nya?" Naomi asked, not seeing Heaven anywhere.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!?!" the eight brothers screeched, as they scrambled to look for their little sister.

"Heaven! Where are you?!" Silver called out.

"Yell if you can here us!" Raiden called out.

"Its sweet how they care for their sister," Eris commented.

"Yeah. Heaven is the only family they have left, so they're a bit overprotective of her," Maria explained.

"Any way, I checked the computer databases on the Seven Warriors. I didn't find any information about any of them being able to use black fire. Except," Takanosuke paused.

"You have a theory?" Celestia asked.

"Well, I looked up the seven warriors, but only six of them were identified. The seventh, from the only bit of information I gathered, is apparently the strongest of the seven. This Warrior is almost on par with John Clark," Takanosuke explained.

"A warrior that's almost as powerful as that awful dictator?" Fluttershy asked fearfully.

"Well, we're going to have to defeat them if we want to find our friends," Silver said. Just then, a trail of black fire embers appeared in front of the group, "More black fire," Silver said.

"It looks like they're leading into that castle attraction," Zach said.

"You don't think," Icezer said.

"I very much hope not, but Heaven may have gone in there alone," Raiden replied.

"Well, there's only one way to know for sure," April said, as the group entered the castle.

"Keep on your guard. We don't know what to expect," Twilight said.

"What's the matter?! Don't you think we can't handle ourselves?!" Lucas snapped.

"Don't be rude!" Simon scolded, as they all entered a large room.

"Strange. There's usually one of the warriors in here, boasting about how they're the best at what they do," Claire commented. It was then when the doors behind them closed with a slam.

"We're trapped, nya!" Naomi exclaimed, as the lights came on.

"What a keen grasp of the obvious, kitten," a voice taunted. Turning to the source, the group's eyes widened at who they saw; It was Heaven, but she had a completely evil look in her eyes.

"Heaven, what are you doing?" Silver demanded. "Heaven" then had a psychotic look on her face.

"'Heaven'?" the imposter asked, "Who in the world is 'Heaven'?" she asked.

"What's the deal Heaven? You're usually so sweet and caring," Leon commented.

"Oh, you must mean this pile of trash," the imposter said, throwing the real Heaven onto the ground, "As you may have already guessed by this, I am the second mightiest of the Seven Deadly Warriors. My name is Helen," Helen said, introducing herself. However, she was ignored, as the group were concerning themselves in the injured Heaven.

"HEAVEN! ARE YOU ALRIGHT?" Echo-Echo asked, as Silver propped up her head.

"That girl... the one... who looks. like me...," Heaven said in between breaths.

"Yeah, she's one of the Seven Warriors," Raiden said.

"Well, that... but she plays... using dirty tricks," Heaven added.

"Stay strong Heaven!" Silver said.

"What's your problem!?! Heaven isn't even a mutant!" Brian demanded.

"Mutant or not, any who align themselves with inhuman garbage receive no mercy from me," Helen said, "Unfortunately, she was boring, so defeating her was far too easy. I'm hoping you all will provide more of a challenge," Helen taunted, as she became engulfed in black fire.

"That fire!" Lucas said.

"Its the same kind we experienced!" Cassidy said.

"Whatever! Those flames don't hold a candle to mine anyhow," Brian said, as he stepped forward. Helen became severely enraged by this comment.

"What, was that? You think your fire is stronger than mine?!" Helen demanded, as she began to form a large ball of fire, "KNOW YOUR PLACE, LOWLY MUTANT!" she yelled, as she chucked the fireball at Brian.

"You think a little fire can scare me?" Brian taunted.

"Brian, keep away from that fire!" Raiden called to his brother.

"Why should I? You know fire attack don't," Brian was cut off when he felt a searing pain course throughout his body. Brian screamed in pain, "What the... why can't I absorb this fire?!" Brian demanded.

"I told you to know your place! That fire is endowed with particles that prevents fire mutants from absorbing it," Helen taunted.

"I see. So black fire is something Brian can't absorb," Claire commented, as Helen began to barrage the others with her black fire.

"Shield!" Simon called, as a wall of stone appeared in front of him and his friends, "Its pointless to keep attacking! My shields can block any attack you can throw at us," Simon taunted.

"Ah, shield mutant, eh? I'm not exactly trained to deal with your kind, but I'm still in another league compared to Bard," Helen taunted, as she threw more black flames.

"Isn't there something we can do?" April asked.

"I may be able to blow out the fires, but they're all coming too fast," Sora replied.

"Maybe I can throw off Helen with one of my many parfums," Zach said. Eliza smacked his head.

"Or, Cassidy can burrow underneath and catch Helen by surprise while we attack her," Eliza said.

"Uh, why me?" Cassidy asked.

"Because you're the only one of us who can burrow through solid rock," Maria replied. Reluctantly, Cassidy then broke the rock and burrowed her way underground towards Helen.

"Aw, its no fun if you guys are just playing defense!" Helen complained, as she ceased her barrage of fireballs, "C'mon, I wanna play!" she whined.

"Is she really a warrior? She seems rather childish," Claire commented.

"Even so, that fire she chucked at Brian was still enough to cause him pain. So we need to face her caution," Stealth replied.

"Aw, I wanna play!" Helen complained, as she had a demented look in her eyes, "I have so many wonderful games I want play," she cackled maniacally. However, she was caught off guard, as Cassidy popped out of the ground, causing Helen to loose her footing.

"Now's the chance to strike!" Eliza yelled, as the mutants all unleashed a barrage of attacks against Helen.

"Should we help out?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"We can't. This is their battle alone. We must not interfere in anyway," Discord replied.

"He's right. Silver and his brothers and friends are fighting for the freedom of all the mutants in this world. To intervene on this battle would completely defeat the purpose," Luna added, as Helen fell to the floor.

"Had enough?" Silver asked, as he levitated back down to the floor. It was then when they heard Helen sniffling.

"Its not fair!" she said, getting up, "I'm just a little girl! You're supposed to let me win!" Helen complained as she had tears, that were threatening to escape, 'Hehehe, those stupid mutants will lower their guard with my fake sadness technique. I mean, no one can resist the tears of a little girl,' Helen thought to herself evilly.

"Please," Sora snarled.

"Do you really think we're that dumb, nya?" Naomi asked. Helen paled at this.

"WAIT! SO YOU GUYS COULD SEE THROUGH MY FAKE SADDNESS TECHNIQUE?!?" Helen screeched.

"It was obvious you were faking it," Carlos replied.

"I could smell the parfum of deceit from a mile away!" Zach proclaimed.

"You mean you can tell she was faking because of a mutants heightened sense to detect liars," Eliza deadpanned. Zach became distraught at his crush's words.

"My dear, why must you be so cruel to my manly spirits?" Zach asked.

"And what did I tell you about talking to me like I'm your girlfriend?!" Eliza warned. Zach was undeterred by the words of the love of his life.

"Lets focus on the battle guys!" Leon said, as Helen began to gear up for another attack. She attacked as she did before, lobbing black fire balls at the mutants, who all expertly dodged them.

"Should we try what we did before?" Icezer asked.

"We could, but she'd be expecting it. So we need to try a different approach," April replied, as she looked at Claire. The latter nodded, knowing what April was referring to. Just then, Helen felt herself being lifted off of the ground.

"Ah, I forgot there were mutants that could change the gravity around things," Helen said, glaring at the two girls.

"Here's your chance to attack!" Claire yelled to her friends. With that, Silver and the other mutants attacked Helen while her field of gravity was off. Attack after attack was thrown at Helen. Like last time, she was thrown to the ground.

"This is impossible! I'm an executioner of mutants! How am I being pushed back?!" Helen demanded. She tried to get back up, but she was too sore, "No, I-I failed? Master John, I'm sorry!" Helen cried out. A shadow loomed over her. Looking up, she saw the mutants.

"How do we get to John?" Heiru asked.

"Alright, since you defeated me with ease, I can give you this," Helen replied, conjuring a large coffin shaped elevator, "You may have bested me, and my comrades, but you'll never defeat Master John. This elevator will take you straight up to his headquarters. Keep all hands, arms, feet, legs, and wings inside the elevator, and be sure to watch all small children," Helen said, before losing consciousness. One by one, the group squeezed into the elevator, all, except for Fluttershy, Discord, Eris and Heaven.

"We'll stay behind and tend to Heaven's medical needs. Afterwards, we'll deal with her," Discord said, looking at Helen.

"Make sure you guys take that jerk down!" Eris said, as the elevator took off.

Half way up the tower, Zach saw something, "Hey, who are those guys?" he asked. Looking to where he was referring, the group saw Toby and the others, sitting in a cage, looking very depressed.

"Its Toby and the others!" Silver exclaimed.

"So our hunch was right. They were captured," Raiden commented. Just then, Zach and his three friends jumped out onto a nearby ledge.

"ZACH, WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING?!" Echo-Echo asked.

"There's no guarantee that John will release them if we defeat him, so we're going to try to free them ourselves," Takanosuke replied.

"Don't worry about your friends. We'll get them out!" Sora called.

"They shall breathe deep the parfum of freedom, MAN!" Zach called, as the four of them ran to where they saw Toby and the others.

"Look alive guys. We're getting closer to the top," Heiru commented. Naomi was the most worried about the upcoming fight.

'Hopefully he'll see the errors of his ways after the fight,' the cat girl thought to herself.

Back with Toby and the others...

"Alright, Group 1 go!" Silver Spoon said.

"Uh, sir. Me and my pals got to use the restrooms." Nathan said.

"Ok." one of John Clark's henchmen said, as he opened the cell doors for the first group of children. They all went inside the restroom, and into the stalls. After two minutes of using the restrooms, the kids went to their next step.

"Excuse me? We need some toilet paper?" Kelly asked.

"Alright." the henchmen said, as they got to the front of the doors. Suddenly, the kids slammed the doors into the henchmen, knocking them out. Some of the kids put the henchmen against walls.

"Ok, guys. Make the cut." Kelly said.

The others nodded as they wrapped up the henchmen in toilet paper. But not before taking out their clothes except for their shoes and underwear. Once they were done, the kids threw the henchmen in the stalls, disabled the locks, and wore their clothes. But they suddenly reached a problem.

"Hmm. These clothes seem too tall. Looks like we have to stack up in groups in order to fit these." Diamond Tiara said.

"Alright." Kelly said, as she and the others got into three suits, which the two kids stacked up in each one.

"It's gonna be hard to control this." Toby muttered.

The kids disguised as the henchmen went off from the restroom. They came to the other henchmen, unsuspicious.

"Hey, what happened to you guys? You have been walking weird." one guard said.

"You said it, idiot!" Nathan said as he, Toby, and Joshua punched the other guards unconscious. They searched their pockets until they found the keys to their cell.

"Bingo." Silver Spoon said.

The first group of kids walked back to their cell, unlocking the door.

"Let's go, Group 2!" Toby cheered.

The second group nodded as they ran off to the halls to the kitchen. However, as soon as they entered the kitchen, they were soon ambushed by a man. He was a heavily built man with near white blonde hair and brown eyes, and red goggles on his head.

"Where do you twerps think you're going?" the man asked.

"How did you find us out so fast?!" Nyx asked.

"I'm in charge of security in Master John's amusement park. My name is Lockdown. I'm one of the Seven Deadly Warriors," he replied, introducing himself, "And you twerps ain't going anywhere," Lockdown said, as he ensnared the escaped children, and the other kids in a net. The kids tried to escape, but then were knocked unconscious after Lockdown pounded them with his fists.

"Lockdown, sir!" one of the nearby lackeys exclaimed, rushing towards him, "We've just apprehended the others who escaped!" he said with a salute.

"Good work. Now put them with the others in the totally indestructible cage," Lockdown ordered.

"Yes sir!" the lackey replied with a salute. He grabbed the net, and dragged it out of the room.

"Well, that takes care of one thing off my check list. Now I'd better go and check if those soldiers brought in a good crop of mutants," Lockdown said, as he left to the loading bay.

Chapter 25: So we finally meet/ The Seven Deadly Warriors of New Burbank (part 5)

"Ok, I think they were this way," Sora said, as they rounded a corner. Eventually, they had arrived at a door.

"Alright, looks like its my turn," Takanosuke said, as he approached the access panel. He then began punching keys at lightning speed. After about ten seconds, the doors opened, revealing the cage holding the Fujiyama brother's new friends on the other side of the room.

"This is easier than I thought," Leon commented. He was about to go and break them out, when he was stopped by Sora.

"Too easy. Why are they just sitting in the middle of the room?" Sora asked.

"I smell the parfum of a trap," Zach commented.

"I agree. Look at those ledges. They're perfect for a sniper. We walk in to where they're at, and suddenly, we're boxed in. And look at the room. Its the perfect setup for a laser web," Takanosuke added.

"Good point. Looks like its my turn now," Leon added, as he summoned a flurry of snow to dust out any lasers. However, there were no lasers.

"Strange, I would've thought there were some laser traps," Sora commented.

"Alright, lets continue on, but lets move cautiously," Zach said, as the four of them tiptoed their way towards the cage, being careful of any traps. Eventually, they had arrived at the cage.

"Hey, you guys ok?" Sora asked. The kids stirred at his words. Looking up, Cory came face to face with Zach.

"Man!" was all Zach said. This caused Cory to recoil back in surprise.

"Who are you guys?" Joshua asked.

"Don't worry. We're friends of Silver and his brothers," Takanosuke said, looking at the digital lock on the cage, "Now then, lets see what we can do about this then," he said, as he began to try and pick the lock.

"So you guys are Silver's new friends?" Leon asked.

"Yeah, we met them the other day," Trinity replied, as Takanosuke got the lock undone.

"Ok, that should do it," Takanosuke said, as the cage opened.

"C'mon guys, we'd better get out of here," Leon said, as they all made their way to the door. However, they didn't make it very far, as they soon found themselves surrounded by soldiers. Lockdown was among them.

"Well, well, well, what have we here?" Lockdown taunted, as he approached them, "A couple of escapees?" he taunted further, "Arrest them!" Lockdown commanded. However, Zach and the trident weren't having it.

"As if!" Sora yelled, as he summoned a hurricane strong gale, which sent several guards flying.

"Rage, o' blizzard!" Leon commanded, as a flurry of snow was summoned to stop several more guards. Lockdown sneered at this, and turned to a random soldier.

"Don't just stand there, CALL FOR REINFORCEMENTS!" Lockdown ordered.

"Yes sir!" the soldier said, as he ran out of the room. Lockdown turned his attention back to the prisoners.

"Alright, if this is how you want to play," Lockdown said, as he shot another net at the children, completely ensnaring them.

"This again?" Vibrant angrily asked.

"This is such a pain," Mike commented.

"Don't worry. So long as you have my friends and myself to fight this battle, we shall breathe deep the parfum of freedom!" Zach said, striking a dramatic pose.

"Uh, sir, about that," Takanosuke called.

"Yes, what is it?" Zach asked, looking towards his friend.

"They captured us while you were making that speech," Leon commented.

Zach still had his confident expression, but he began sweating at seeing his friends in a cage, "WHAT A TRAGEDY!" Zach exclaimed. Lockdown and all the soldiers loomed over Zach.

"Heh, this is the most fun I've had in ages!" Lockdown said. Zach backed up from him.

"Now hold on!" Zach pleaded. The soldiers didn't listen, and went on the attack.

"NO ZACH!" the trident cried.

"Sora, Takanosuke, Leon," Zach said, as he flew through the air, only to be met with another barrage of attacks, 'My dear friends, I'm sorry for dragging you into this. I should've know that the three of you are lovers, not fighters. And yet you chose the noble path, and fought bravely. You put your handsome faces in harms way! I failed my three best friends. HOW COULD I HAVE LET YOU FALL?!' Zach thought to himself, as he fell to the ground, just in front of the nets holding the children and the trident.

"ZACH NO!" the children and the Trident all cried out.

"Alright troops, arrest him as well!" Lockdown ordered, as Zach slowly began to get back up.

"Don't worry my friends. I promise I will free you. I shall reveal the handsome face of justice!" Zach thought to himself, as he began to bulk up some muscle, "Muscle, muscle man! Man, man, muscle, muscle! Muscle, man, man!" Zach chanted, as he became a towering giant, "To my friends, I dedicate the parfum of victory!" Zach bellowed, as he turned his attention back to Lockdown and his henchmen.

"What the.. How did he get so huge?" one soldier asked.

"This mutant's power allows him to tap into odors, and use them accordingly. But nevertheless, we must capture him!" Lockdown ordered as every soldier charged at Zach.

"You can very well try, but your attacks shall melt, against my beautiful dreamer," Zach began, as his hair covered his face, "SMILE!" he finished, as his hair got out of his face, to reveal him smiling at the soldiers. The soldiers all stopped, and looked at him questioningly, including Lockdown, "AND SMASH!" Zach yelled, as he delivered an uppercut to all the soldiers. The children were visibly nauseated at Zach's choice of attack, as Lockdown and his soldiers all crashed into the wall and/or ceiling. Zach struck another pose, "MAN!" was all he said, as he broke the nets, holding his friends, "Are you all ok?" Zach asked, striking another dramatic pose.

"Uh, yeah. We are," Cory replied awkwardly.

"Zach, sir! If we go to the central control room, we should be able to free every mutant across the city!" Takanosuke commented.

"An excellent idea Takanosuke," Zach replied.

"Can we come along?" Nyx asked. The four teens thought about it for a moment, before turning back to alicorn filly.

"Alright, but we need to move, now!" Sora replied, as the group made their way for the central control room.

Back with Silver's group,

They stood before a foreboding door, that they felt was taunting them, judging them, "Alright guys, this is it. Once we step through those doors, there's no turning back from the fight that's ahead," Silver said.

"We understand. And I feel that we're all ready for it," Eliza replied. All the other mutants there nodded, except for Naomi, who seemed rather reluctant to go into battle.

'I was hoping it wouldn't have to come to this,' Naomi thought herself. Stealth noticed the look of worry on his girlfriend's face.

"Naomi, is there something wrong?" the ninja asked.

"Hmm, no, I'm fine Akira, nya," Naomi replied. Stealth still seemed unsure. Just then, the doors opened.

"Lets go," Heiru said, as they advanced to the room ahead. Once they were all inside, the doors slammed shut behind them.

"So good of you to come all this way," the lights turned on, to reveal John Clark, looking rather smug.

"You may as well surrender now John," Silver declared.

"We have the passage from your diary, so we can expose you for the fraud you truly are," Raiden commented, pulling out the diary. John did another feminine screech, as he swiped the diary from the thunder mutant.

"Seriously dude, none of us girls would decorate our diary's that girly," April commented.

"SHUT UP!" John yelled, putting his diary in a nearby trunk, before turning back to the mutants, "Now then, its high time you brats get what you deserve," John said, as he snapped his fingers. The roof then opened up to reveal they were all in a large coliseum, "Of course, I wouldn't want to keep the public from seeing your execution, so I'm broadcasting it live worldwide!" John exclaimed.

"You'd really broadcast your own downfall? Are you serious?" Simon asked.

"That's some pretty bold talk, coming from a lowly mutant," John commented, as he tossed his cape off to the side, "But I think I'll save you for later," John said, as he looked around at the mutants, "I think I'll start with one of those Fujiyama boys. They've proven to be quite elusive for my soldiers," he smirked, as he eyed the eight brothers, settling his eyes on Echo-Echo, "You'll go first!" John said, as he summoned poorly drawn spirits around the robot.

"WHAT IS THIS?" Echo-Echo asked, as the spirits grabbed his arms, and started to massage them, "THIS IS YOUR STYLE OF COMBAT? A MASSAGE?" the robot asked incredulously. It was then he noticed something was off. His metallic body was starting to feel warped, as though he were made of sculpting clay, "WHAT'S GOING ON?!" the robot demanded.

"That is my power. I can turn anyone who defies me into a work of art!" John exclaimed, as Echo-Echo became more and more clay like, and was eventually turned into a modernist art sculpture. The friends all gasped at the fate that had befell their robot friend, "Now then, who should be my next masterpiece?" John pondered, eyeing the mutants. His eyes fell on Silver, "How about you?" John asked, as he summoned spirits around the psychic teen. The spirits began to massage Silver's arms, as he became more clay like.

"We can't just sit by and let him do this!" Eliza exclaimed, as her arms morphed into long swords, and began to hack away at the spirits.

Lucas then howled like a wolf, "I won't allow this!" he exclaimed, as his nails elongated to an unimaginable length, "Mega, Mega Jellyfish!" Lucas yelled, as he slashed at the spirits. It was then that Stealth noticed some peculiar about two of the spirits. They looked exactly like his brothers. And the two spirits were massaging John's arms like they were clay.

"Will you two stop that?!" John yelled, knocking the two spirits back, as they reverted back into their original forms, "Hmm, so it appears that attack doesn't work on you mutants," John commented, as he began to ponder what to do next. Then, he got an idea, "I know. Maybe you'll like my Clay Spike Valley!" John exclaimed, as he summoned spikes straight from the ground. Silver and them all dodged the spikes by cartwheeling away from them, "Run away all you want, it'll do very little good," John taunted, as they all kept cartwheeling away. Maria was getting tired, and leaped for a nearby wall. Jumping from the wall, she shot a spider web at John, who used some clay to forge a sword to slash away the web.

"Ok, this is going be harder than I thought," Silver commented.

"Much harder than you think," John tormented, as a network of gear shaped images appeared around each of the mutants.

"What is this?" Icezer asked.

"I don't give a crap about what it is!" Brian exclaimed, as he charged at John, fully ignited.

"Brian, don't do it!" Silver called out, but it was too late. John had smacked Brian away before he could deliver a blow to the cruel dictator, "I could sense it from a mile away. This network allows John to know what we're about to do, even be we know what we're going to do," Silver explained.

"How can you tell?" April asked.

"Every wielder of telekinetic powers can sense out other psychic wavelengths in various attacks. So, when John summoned these, I just put two and two together," Silver explained.

"I see. So you could detect it right off the bat?" Eliza asked.

"Yeah, but it'll make things harder for us. This network allows him to read our thoughts, even before we can think them up," Silver explained.

"That's so not fair!" Cassidy complained.

"Not to worry. Since I'm a psychic mutant, I can easily take this network down, but I need some time," Silver said, as he began to counteract John's network.

"In the mean time, we need to cover Silver," Stealth said, as he threw some leaf shaped shurikens. John merely swung a sword made of clay to knock away the leafs. Eliza then morphed her arms into swords, which she then used to engage John Clark with. She fought valiantly, but she was repelled with ease, as the others tried to combat John Clark, but were just as easily repelled as Eliza was.

"Silver, we could use some help!" Heiru called.

"Don't rush me! I've almost got it!" Silver exclaimed, as the network died off.

"Hmm, so you've neutralized that technique," John commented.

"You may as well surrender now. Now that we've figured out your strongest attacks, there's no way we can loose now!" Carlos exclaimed.

"'Strongest attacks'? When have I ever used any of my strongest techniques?" John asked. The mutant's, and pony's eyes all widened, "That's right, I have yet to use any of my best moves," John explained.

"That means he's barely trying!" April exclaimed.

"Which means we don't even stand a chance against him!" Simon added.

"Don't be so quick to back down now. We can still fight," Francisco explained. Naomi seemed to be the most worried about this.

'Please, don't do this to them,' she thought to herself.

Chapter 26: The battle of the arts; Mutants VS. John Clark

"Now here this; I have never used any of my strongest attacks!" John said. The mutants and ponies gasped.

"But all those attacks were really strong," Icezer commented.

"If that's the case, we may not stand a chance against him," Maria added.

"If that's the case, we'll just have to keep trying," Silver said, as John began to gear up for an attack.

"Now, you'll see my true power!" John taunted.

"WE DON'T WANNA!" Echo-Echo exclaimed.

"Oh, but you do," John taunted. The mutants all screamed in fear, "Here it is," he said, building up tension, "Its a rerun of the story!" the mutants all screamed even more, "Its my artistic power!" John exclaimed.

"Huh, that's it?" April asked.

"So, what do you think he means by that?" Carlos asked Simon and Lucas.

"Who knows?" Simon asked.

"No doubt he'll use the various types of art to combat us," Eliza commented.

Back with the other children, Zach, and the Trident,

After defeating Lockdown, Zach, the trident, and the children all made their way into the control room, "Ok, looks like this is the control center for every one of John Clark's prisons," Takanosuke commented, as he dashed for the control panel.

"Wait, so you can hack into the prison's security system from here?" Trinity asked.

"Pfft, I've hacked into several computers with more security than this," Takanosuke replied.

"Wait, if you could hack into computers like this, why didn't you just do that to break yourselves out?" Vibrant asked.

"Takanosuke needs a computer terminal to do that. Without one, we were pretty much stuck," Sora explained.

"Takanosuke's mutant power allows him to hack computers, and calculate billions among billions of different passwords and codes in one second," Leon added.

"Really?" Trinity asked. The other two nodded.

"Ok, I've just got to disable two more prisons, and then we'll have a large enough fighting force against John Clark," Takanosuke commented, as continued to punch in keys.

"What do we do after that?" Clover asked.

"Afterwards, we need to coordinate every mutant in the city to come and help Silver and the others in their fight against John," Takanosuke replied, as he finished punching in the last keys, "Ok, every mutant is out, now to gather them here," Takanosuke commented.

"How do you plan on doing that?" Charity asked.

"Well, I hacked into each of the prison's intercom systems while breaking every other mutant out. So, using said intercom, I can relay messages to each of the prisons, thus calling every mutant in the city to John's palace," Takanosuke said, as he activated the intercom system, "Calling all mutants, calling all mutants, this is Takanosuke Rivers call to all mutants released from New Burbank prisons owned by John Clark. I am calling to all mutants to come to John Clark's fortress to assist in the rebellion against him. The Fujiyama brothers have evidence to prove to the public that John Clark is a fraud! Come to the fortress and assist in anyway possible," Takanosuke said.

"So, what now?" Joshua asked.

"For now, we need to thin the numbers of John's army, and then make our way back up to Silver and the others," Leon said.

"We'd better get a move on. No doubt John's forces will be on their way to capture us again," Sora commented.

"I doubt it. I'm looking at the security cameras, and I don't see any henchmen," Takanosuke replied.

"Maybe they're laying low?" Season Harvest suggested.

"Anything is possible," Zach replied.

"Either way, I don't think we should stand around," Melody commented.

"Right, we'd better get a move on," Cory said, as they all left the control room.

The battle against John Clark's real power had begun, as he clasped his hands together, "Alright, take my Command Orchestra!" John bellowed, as four large subwoofers rose up from the ground, and started to play orchestra music. One by one, each of the mutants and ponies fell to their knees.

"What's going on?" Twilight demanded.

"My Command Orchestra forces all who hears its melody to fall to their knees," John explained.

"This is bad, we won't be able to launch a counterstrike at this rate," Eliza commented, looking around at her friends. She then saw Brian flat on his face, "HOW IS THAT BOWING?!" Eliza demanded.

"AH, THAT'S JUST HOW BRIAN SHOWS RESPECT. TOO BAD HE'S NOT SHOWING TO ANYONE RESPECTABLE," Echo-Echo replied, as he laid on a sushi platter.

"Quite frankly," Silver began. Eliza turned her head to where Silver was at, "I respect me most of all," Silver said, sitting in a throne. He then glared at John Clark, "But you're in no position for respect!" Silver yelled, delivering a kick to John's gut, sending the latter flying back, holding his side where Silver had kicked him.

"Ok, NOW I'm mad," John stated, as the subwoofers sounded to be getting louder. This forced Silver down to his knees.

"We need to disable the subwoofers!" Raiden called to his friends.

"Leave that to me," Eliza said, "Silver, I need you to throw me at John," Eliza instructed. Silver complied by picking Eliza up with his psychic powers, and throwing her directly at John Clark, "Take this!" Eliza yelled, as he arms turned into clubs that she bashed against John's face, "And as for that music of yours," Eliza said, as she looked at the subwoofers. Her arms then turned into grappling hooks, which she threw over the top of the subwoofers, grabbing the back of them, "You have terrible taste!" Eliza yelled, as she pulled the subwoofers down, slamming them on the ground. This in turn freed all of her friends.

"Thanks Eliza. Our knees were starting to get sore," Carlos commented.

"I'll say," Stealth said, as he and his brothers were all flat on their faces.

"WILL YOU GUYS TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!?!" Claire demanded, as John was getting up.

"YOU'RE ALL MAKING ME ANGRY!" John yelled, "Since you kids want to play it that way, then try this on for size!" John exclaimed, as he summoned a giant tower that looked to be made of sculpting clay, "The Tower of Demise will be where this little quarrel ends," John taunted, as he teleported to the top of the tower, "And just to make things a little harder on you," John said, as he summoned several eggs made from clay, "These carnivorous sculptured eggs will end you before you even make it half way up here," John taunted. However, his self glory was short lived when Eliza morphed her arms into swords and slashed all the eggs in half.

"C'mon guys!" Lucas called out, as they all started running up the stairs that came with the tower.

"If that's how you wish to do things, then I'll just go ahead and give you some toys to play with," John taunted, as lasers started shooting out of the tower. Raiden, Stealth, Carlos, Icezer, Brian and Silver all fired back at the lasers, destroying them, as the mutants all raced up the stairs, "Persistent little bugs. Alright, take this then!" John bellowed, as he had summoned lookalike clay clones of himself.

"What is this? You're s desperate for bodyguards that you make clones of yourself?" Heiru asked, as the clones went on the attack. The mutants all fought back bravely, as each of the clay clones fell, one right after the other.

"Strike down as many as you want. It makes no difference. I can craft as many clones to combat you," John said, as twice as many clones appeared in front of the mutants.

"Man, this is becoming tedious. We need a way around these clones," Simon commented.

"Leave that to me," Francisco replied, as he warped the space around his friends to teleport them all up to where John Clark was standing.

"ATTACK!" Silver yelled, as all the mutants unleashed a barrage of attacks against John Clark. John could barely keep up with the attacks as he fell from the top of the tower, and landed hard on his desk. Silver's group leapt down from the tower.

"So that's it? John's defeated?" April asked.

"Most likely. Now we can inform the authorities," Raiden replied. The mutants all turned to leave, except for Naomi, who had a look of contempt on her face.

'I'm sorry. I didn't want for it to come down to this,' the cat girl thought to herself. As she went to celebrate with her friends, her cat like ears heard something coming from John Clark's direction. Turning to where the dictator laid, her eyes widened in horror at what she saw; John Clark was getting back up. This caught the attention of the others.

"This guy just doesn't know when to quit!" Lucas angrily yelled.

"You little pests are really starting to become a pain. I guess now its time to show you my real power!" John exclaimed as he stuck a syringe filled with a green liquid in his leg. After the syringe was empty, John Clark had begun to transform. His hair became longer, and more slick, and his armor looked to take on the appearance of works of clay art, "You brats may have had a chance before, but now is where your story ends!" John taunted. The Fujiyama brothers and their friends geared up for the REAL fight.

Chapter 27: Mutants VS. Ultra John Clark

John had been giving off tremendous amounts of power, as the mutants all readied themselves for a real battle, "Now, fear the wrath of my true power, and smell my pits!" John bellowed, as he summoned a gale, that was strong enough the send each of the mutants back a few paces.

"His power, it defies all logic!" Eliza commented.

"This may be our toughest battle ever," Maria added.

"Hold your ground. We can't show weakness just because he looks tougher," Silver said, trying to encourage his friends to keep fighting, as the room around them disintegrated.

"Right, so we need to keep hammering out attacks!" Icezer bellowed, as he fired a cannon of ice at John.

"Right behind ya," Brian said, as he fired a burst of flames at John.

"Same game, new frame!" John bellowed, as the ice and fire suddenly disappeared.

"What happened?!" Cassidy asked.

"Hmm, somehow he neutralized the attacks," Raiden summarized.

"But how can that be?" Twilight asked.

"I don't know, but I think it may have to do with this new form of his," Raiden theorized.

"He may have changed forms, but he's still the same dictator that we need to take down!" Claire replied, as they all charged at John Clark.

"You buffoons would be smart if you walked away, but you're buffoons!" John taunted, as he sent a shockwave which sent all the mutants flying back.

"Man, if we can't get a hit in, we won't be able to defeat him," Francisco commented.

"Maybe we can try this," Stealth said, as clones of himself appeared. The clones all charged at John, "Quickly, while he's distracted!" Stealth whispered, as the mutants all charge at John themselves. John merely blew away the clones, but failed to see Silver and his friends closing in on him.

"I see, the clones were just a diversion," John said, as the mutants got in close. However, when they threw punches at John, their fists just fazed right through John, as if he were a hologram. The mutants all jumped back to keep their distance, "I am not sympathetic to your pathetic attack!" John taunted evilly.

Why didn't their attacks work?" Rarity asked.

I don't know, but I would guess that it has something to do with this new form of his," Celestia replied.

"Try and understand it all you want, you worthless twerps will never understand the true power of art!" John taunted. It was then when Raiden realized something.

"Of course! John Clark must've took on this form because of his obsession for art!" Raiden exclaimed.

"So we can only get to him through artistic attacks!" April added.

"But Takashi ate all the crayons," Cassidy pointed out.

"So we'll just do the next best thing; improvise," Silver said, as he grabbed a nearby rock and started drawing something on the ground. After a few strokes, his friends saw that he drew a picture of outer space, "How do you like that, John?" Silver taunted.

"That pathetic chicken scratch is only twelve percent good!" John angrily yelled, as Silver's score was literally thrown at him.

"Then I'll just have to make something then!" Icezer said, as he formed a large sword made of ice, and charged at John. However, before got close, a score of 100 percent appeared above him, "Wait, I got a perfect score? But how can that be?! I haven't done anything yet!" Icezer demanded, "Could it be, that I'm art?" Icezer asked himself, "Of course, just by existing I create art!" Icezer proclaimed. Several artist then appeared before him.

"Oh Icezer, you're great one!" one artist commented.

"Please allow us to study your workmanship, your greatness!" another begged.

"Well, I am great," Icezer replied, acting like a big shot.

"Will you take this seriously?!" Eliza demanded.

"Hey, are you living art? Don't talk to me unless you're living art!" Icezer snapped.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Eliza demanded, giving Icezer the angriest look imaginable. Icezer then hid behind Echo-Echo.

"HEY, DO I LOOK LIKE A SHIELD TO YOU?!" Echo-Echo yelled at his brother.

"Hmm, this kids seem do only quarrel amongst themselves. It'll make their defeat all the more enjoyable for the public," John said to himself, as he launched a barrage of art themed attacks at the mutants. The mutants didn't have enough time to dodge, as the attacks all threw them on the ground. They all struggled to get back on their feet. Naomi seemed to have the most pained expression among them.

'Why, why are you doing this?' Naomi thought to herself.

"You mutants should just surrender now. Everyone in the entire city despises your kind, so why bother trying to make yourselves look like heroes?" John asked.

"The reason we're doing this, is for our friends!" Silver spat.

"Our friends suffered because of your lies," Raiden added.

"You made all of us mutants look like common criminals," Heiru added.

"Surrendering to you would be worse than betrayal!" Brian finished. It was then when the eight brothers could hear their heartbeats, as their power began to surge. John quirked an eyebrow at this development. Eliza, Carlos, Claire, and all of the Fujiyama brothers' friends looked at the brothers in amazement as formless marks appeared on their body. The brothers seemed oblivious to the marks, as their respective powers began to change in terms of color. Raiden's electricity became red, Brian's fire became a deep forest green, Icezer's ice became magenta, Silver's telekinetic power became gold, Heiru's spiritual energy became a mysterious gray color, Francisco's spacial robes became a sea foam green, Stealth's leaves became more emerald green, and Echo-Echo's normally blue body became a lighter shade of blue.

"Hmm, interesting. This is most certainly a surprising turn of events," John observed. From the sidelines, Twilight and friends were wide eyed at this transformation.

"Ah've never seen anything like this before!" Applejack exclaimed.

"Celestia, what is this?" Twilight asked.

"I can't say with any certainty," Celestia replied, 'But it could most likely be Silver's and his brother's true power,' she then thought to herself.

Back with Toby's group,

"Alright, it should be this way," Takanosuke said, as the group ran around a corner.

"So, why are we going this way?" Vibrant asked.

"When I hacked into the security system, I found the schematics to the building, so I know where the exit is," Takanosuke replied.

"Well, we've been lucky so far. We haven't run into any guards," Lucky Joy pointed out.

"That's true, but the question is 'why haven't we seen any guards?' I'm sure news about Lockdown's defeat would surely alert the guards to be more on high alert," Sora pointed out.

"Well, maybe the defeat of Lockdown caused the other guards to go into hiding," Toby theorized. Just then, they could see the exit.

"Alright, we're in the clear!" Leon exclaimed. However, halfway to the door, marks appeared on each of the children. Butterflies on Toby, diamonds on Conner, Apples on Mike, stars on Joshua, Kelly, Cory and Crystal, rainbows on Echo, balloons on Melody and Clover, and hearts on Nathan.

"What the... What are these things?!" Cory asked.

"I don't know, I've never seen anything like that in the books I read," Nyx replied.

"There are people who still have books?" Leon whispered to Sora.

"Well, they are from another world, so its possible," Sora replied.

"Hmm, well, maybe your parents know something about it. C'mon," Takanosuke said, as they all ran through the door way.

Back with Discord, Eris, Fluttershy and Heaven,

"Ok, that's the last of it," Eris said, putting a bandage on Heaven's leg.

"Thank you!" Heaven chimed. Shockwaves echoed throughout the walls of castle.

"They must really be going at it," Discord commented.

"Maybe we should head outside," Fluttershy suggested.

"Yeah, would be a good idea," Discord agreed. It was then when formless markings appeared all over Heaven's body, "What in the world?" he asked.

"What are these?" Eris asked.

"I don't know for certain, but I can sense near infinite magic power coursing through these marks," Discord replied, inspecting the marks.

"Is that good or bad?" Heaven asked.

"Hmm, well, I don't feel any negative power coming from them. So I would venture to assume they're good," Discord replied. The shockwaves from above were becoming more intense by the minute, "We can analyze this outside," Discord quickly said, as they all made their way outside.

The fight against John Clark was now tipping in favor of the mutants, as the Fujiyama brothers all pummeled John Clark with a barrage of attacks, but John kept his ground, "You lowly mutants think you can defeat me? I am the strongest warrior in all of New Burbank! You can't possibly hope to bring me down!" John taunted.

"Shut up! You've committed crimes that we can never forgive," Heiru snapped.

"You fools have no idea of the true power of art. How can you stand up to the power of the works of all the greatest artisans throughout history?!" John demanded.

"Because unlike their works, your art has no soul. No meaning," Raiden replied.

"'No soul'? 'No meaning'? I have studied and mastered the ways of all types of art, so how can my art have no soul?!" John demanded.

"A KEY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ART THAT WE MAKE AND THE ART YOU MAKE IS THAT WE USE OUR OWN STYLE, THE KIND THAT CAN'T BE TAUGHT," Echo-Echo replied.

"'Your own style'? That's a lie! The only types of art have to be taught!" John yelled.

"Typical. You only think of what you learned when you work on art. We actually use our own creative minds to forge new works of art," Heiru explained.

"SILENCE! I will not allow you to tread on the sacred names of all the great art masters," John yelled, as he fired a rainbow colored cannon at the eight brothers.

"That'll be hard for us to do since you already treaded on their names!" Brian yelled. John seemed more infuriated at Brian's words. He then decided to end the battle right their.

"This technique is forbidden by every style of art. It could cost me my video store membership!" John exclaimed, as he slammed his hands on the ground. Afterwards, several copies of him appeared. However, this was in vain, as the Fujiyama brothers destroyed all of the clones, and blasted him off of the edge, causing him to crash into a wall. After that, the marks on each of the brothers disappeared.

"You guys did it!" Eliza exclaimed.

"But what were those marks?" Claire asked.

"I don't know, but what ever they were, it felt as though they gave us a huge burst of power," Raiden replied.

"It looked pretty cool," Cassidy commented.

"Yeah, they did," Icezer replied.

"Well, in any case, we finally defeated John, so now we can head home," Silver commented.

"You mean that new land with the magic ponies?" Eliza asked.

"Yeah. You guys are going to really like it there," Silver replied.

"Its really peaceful," Francisco added. The mutants all made their way to the door, except for Naomi, who looked back to the wall where John Clark had been smashed through.

'I'm really sorry it had to come to this,' Naomi thought to herself, before going to join her friends. However, she didn't notice that from under the pile of rubble, John Clark had remerged, looking more angrier than ever. This caught the attention of all the mutants and the ponies.

"Man, this guy just doesn't know when to quit," Carlos commented.

"You...are...DEAD!" John seethed, as he drank several vials, each containing the green liquid as the first one. Once all the vials were empty, John began a monstrous transformation. He began to grow into a large monster, seeming to be getting angrier by the second. He grew so large that the entire palace crumbled under the monster's weight. Silver managed to keep them from falling with his telekinesis, and lowered them all safely to the ground. Twilight and friends followed after them.

"Is everyone alright?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah, but what happened, exactly?" Icezer asked.

"From what I saw, John Clark drank green fluid from some vials. Afterwards, it caused him to transform into that thing," April replied, looking at the monster. Naomi seemed the most distressed by this.

'You've truly become a real monster,' the cat girl thought to herself.

"Ok, I know John Clark was a monster before, but this really takes the cake," Simon commented.

"Either way, we can't just leave him. Who knows what he'll do if he goes on a rampage," Silver said.

"Looks like every mutant is on their way to aid us," Claire commented, seeing several mutants racing towards the monster.

"Alright, the real fight begins now," Silver commented, as they all went on to attack the monster.

Chapter 28: Naomi's shocking revalation! Defeat the monster!

Every mutant in the city of New Burbank unleashed a wave of attacks at the mutated John Clark, who was effortlessly smacking them away. Brian led the fire mutants in unleashing a burst of fire attack. Icezer and Carlos led the ice mutants in summoning a large blizzard to try and freeze John in one place. Stealth and every plant mutant were using their powers over plants to entangle one of John Clark's legs in vines. Raiden and all the thunder mutants called down bolts of lighting onto the monster's back, with the aid of Claire, April, and all the gravity mutants. Silver and every psychic mutant tried to keep one of the monster's legs from moving. Echo-Echo and every sound mutant aimed sonic blasts into the ears of the monster. The ghost mutants, led by Heiru, tried going in, and attacking the monster from the inside. Francisco flung blades of spacial energy at John.

"It doesn't look like this guy is taking damage!" Lucas called.

"Keep attacking! He's bound to run out of energy eventually," Eliza called. John simply smacked her away, along with a large number of mutants who kept attacking.

"This is the best you mutants can do? You're all absolutely pathetic!" John's voice rang in their heads.

"Keep going everyone! We can't allow him to do as he pleases!" Silver called, trying to keep everyone motivated.

"Can't you guys use those mark things?" Carlos asked Icezer.

"I've been trying to use them, but I can't seem to make them reappear," Icezer replied.

"None of us seem to be able to activate those marks," Raiden commented.

"Well, what happened just before they appeared?" Simon asked.

"Well, we had a strong determination to fight for our friends, and to take down John Clark," Brian replied, retracing their steps.

"IT WAS THEN WHEN WE COULD HEAR OUR HEARTS BEATING AT THE SAME TIME," Echo-Echo added.

"We'll do what we can about keeping that monster at bay. You guys try and draw out that power," Eliza instructed, as they all left to do what they can against John.

"Alright guys, we need to focus on this. We can't let our friends deal with that monster," Silver said to his brothers. They all began focusing on their friends, and their will to protect their friends. After a moment, nothing happened, until they could hear each other's heart beating in synch with one another. The marks then began to reappear again.

"Alright! Now we can take on that monster!" Icezer exclaimed, as the eight brothers all raced to battle.

Back with the other children,

Shockwave after shockwave roar through the walls of the now destroyed palace. Among the rubble, Zach, the trident, and the children were all making their way through the ruins of the palace, "What could've happened?" Trinity asked.

"I don't know, but something big that's for sure," Sora replied. Eventually, they saw what the monster that John Clark had become, "Something like that," Sora deadpanned.

"Wait a minute," Zach said, as he took a few sniffs, "I recognize that parfum! Its John Clark!" Zach exclaimed.

"What did he do?" Leon asked.

"By the looks of it, he took the mutagenic serum he extracted from us, and absorbed it into his body," Takanosuke theorized.

"'Mutagenic serum'? What's that?" Nyx asked.

"Its the stuff inside every mutant that gives each of us our power. Technically, since it's fused to our DNA, we have a limitless supply of it. But by the looks of it, John ingested the serum by drinking it. That resulted in a temporary, yet extremely deadly mutation," Takanosuke explained.

"And by the looks of it, he drank a ton of it," Sora commented. Just then, the marks from before reappeared on each of the children.

"Its those marks again!" Leon said.

"But why are they reappearing now?" Kelly pondered.

"I don't know, but we'd better get moving," Sora suggested.

After regaining the marks from before, the Fujiyama brothers all quickly jumped into battle. The eight of them delivered powerful blows to the monster's back, causing it to roar in pain, "At this rate, he'll burn through the mutagenic serum, so he should resume his human form anytime now," Raiden commented.

"So we all need to keep attacking him!" Silver called out to the other mutants, who in turn, launched another wave of attacks against the monster.

"Insolent pests! BEGONE!" John's voice angrily bellowed, as every mutants was blown back, except for the Fujiyama brothers, who kept on attacking. As they kept attacking, the monster began breathing hard, as if trying to catch its breath.

"He's weakening! Keep going!" Francisco called, as he flung a blade of spacial energy at the monster's back. Eventually, the monster began to shrink, and John Clark regained his human form, but he was completely drained, and was near skin and bones.

"Its over John, you've lost," Silver said, as all the other mutants circled around the defeated dictator.

"That's what you think! I have an army, trained in dealing with you freaks! I'd say it's far from over!" John said, as he laid there. Naomi then approached him, with a sorry look in her eyes.

"Careful Naomi," Stealth said to his catty girlfriend.

"Its alright Akira. Though, I don't think I should even call you this, after all you've done to me and my friends, but, Daddy, why are you so bent on imprisoning us," Naomi asked John Clark. All of Naomi's friends were wide eyed at what she had called John Clark.

"DADDY?!?" they all screeched. Feeling ashamed for keeping it a secret, she turned to her friends.

"Yes, despite his actions towards all of my friends, and myself, John Clark is my Daddy, nya," Naomi explained.

"But why keep it a secret?" Stealth asked.

Naomi's ears flattened in shame, "I thought that after everything he did to us, I thought that if you knew, you'd all wouldn't want to be my friends anymore," Naomi replied sadly.

"Naomi, you've been friends with all of us our entire lives," Simon said.

"We'd never abandon you!" April added, wrapping her arms around the cat girl.

"But back to her question, why are you so determined to capture us?" Raiden asked John Clark.

"The populous sees all mutants as abominations. They don't just hate the fact you have powers, they fear your powers. So that's why they hired me. To catch every mutant in the city," John explained.

"Ok, but what about our parents? They had no powers!" Carlos demanded.

"The people also feared that your parents could've gotten your powers as well," John replied.

"So that's it?! This is all about jealousy!?!" Brian yelled. Just then, they heard something from behind them. Turning, they saw an angry mob racing towards them.

"Alright, we need to go, now!" Eris called.

"We can't leave any of these children here!" Celestia exclaimed.

"You guys want to come with us to Equestria?" Silver asked his friends.

"If it means a chance at a new life, then yes!" Claire replied. The others all nodded in agreement. With that, they all teleported out of New Burbank.

Back in Equestria,

After teleporting away from New Burbank, the mutants all fond themselves on the outskirts of Ponyville, "So this is Equestria?" Cassidy asked, in awe.

"Yep, and from what we've seen of the land, its a rather peaceful land," Brian replied.

"Uh guys, we may have a problem," Maria commented, looking at the masses of mutants rescued from New Burbank.

"Oh, yeah, that presents a problem alright," Silver commented, scratching the back of his head.

"Well, for now, why not tour Ponyville? We can figure out what to do for you kids," Twilight suggested. Seeing no problem with the lavender princesses idea, the mutants all took to Ponyville.

"C'mon, we can show you around, at least as far as what we've been shown," Stealth said, wrapping an arm around Naomi, as they all ventured into Ponyville with the others.

Chapter 29: An Alicorn's Wish

The Fujiyama brothers all led their friends from New Burbank throughout Ponyville, showing them some of the sights that were to be beheld, "This here is Sugarcube Corner," Silver said, presenting them with the bakeshop.

"Looks like a gingerbread house," Eliza commented.

"I think that's how it was built," Raiden replied.

"We don't really know a whole lot about Ponyville, since we've only been here a few days," Heiru added.

"Do you boys know of any place where we can get some new clothes?" Maria asked.

"Oh yeah. Rarity owns a boutique where she makes some of the best clothing we've seen," Icezer replied.

"And could you show us?" Sora asked.

"Yeah, it's over this way," Francisco replied.

Later, as the sun began to set,

After showing what they were shown during their previous trips into town, the Fujiyama brothers finished their tour with Twilight's castle, "This here is the castle of Twilight Sparkle, the lavender alicorn," Silver said, showing them the enormous crystal structure, "C'mon, we should see if they've come up with any ideas," Silver said, as he led them into the castle.

"Are you sure its ok for us to go in?" Lucas asked.

"Don't worry. Twilight may be a princess, but she's a very nice pony," Icezer replied. Walking through the castle, they eventually came across the throne room, where Twilight and friends were pondering on how to help the Fujiyama brother's friends.

"Hey guys, any luck?" Raiden asked.

"Not so far. Most of our plans don't seem like they'll work out too well," Twilight replied. The mutants all saw several papers with plans.

"With the way some ponies in most of the neighboring cities act nowadays, they may not be willing to adopt humans," Celestia added.

"I have an idea," Heaven squeaked. Everyone turned to the little girl.

"Yes? And your idea is?" Luna asked.

"Well, all the other mutants are in need of housing, and they may want to see the world. So I was thinking, why not start a guild?" the blonde girl asked.

"A guild?" Raiden asked.

"That seems like an awful lot of hard work," Twilight commented.

"Well, as Princess Celestia said, if most ponies are unwilling to adopt humans, then why not show them that we're a lot of help?" Heaven asked. The adults and teenagers all thought about it for a moment.

"The plan does have merit, and it would provide each of the mutants the chance to see the world," Celestia commented.

"So, we're going through with it?" Rarity asked. Celestia nodded.

"Alright, then what'll our guild name be?" Carlos asked.

"I thought about that as well," Heaven replied.

"And what name would you suggest?" Eliza asked.

"The guild name should be 'Alicorn's Wish'," Heaven replied.

"'Alicorn's'," Takanosuke started.

"'Wish'?" April finished.

"Not to rain on your parade or anything, but do any of us have any qualities of an alicorn to you?" Leon asked.

"I thought it was a magical name," Heaven happily replied.

"Ok, but where to set up the guild? And who to be the guild master?" Silver asked.

"HOLD ON. I SAW SOME OLD CASTLE RUINS WHILE WE WERE SHOWING OUR FRIENDS AROUND PONYVILLE. MAYBE WE CAN RESTORE IT AS A GUILD?" Echo-Echo suggested.

"That's actually not a bad idea. We've been meaning to do something with that castle," Twilight commented.

"And as for the guild master, I think Silver should have the honor," Simon commented.

"Why me?" Silver asked.

"Well, the eight of you proved you were the strongest mutants among all the ones in New Burbank. And you yourself, Silver are the strongest among your brothers," Simon explained.

"I will talk with the Mayor about it in the morning. Discord, could you provide some suitable arrangements for all the other mutants?" Celestia asked.

"Can do!" Discord replied, teleporting away.

"Would you all like to stay here for the night?" Twilight asked.

"Are you sure it won't be any trouble? We don't want to impose," April asked.

"It's no trouble at all. Besides, I have dinner ready," Twilight replied.

Later, after dinner,

"And here is your room, Naomi," Twilight said, showing each of the mutants to their rooms.

"Thanks you again for having us as guests in your home, Princess, nya," Naomi said.

"You're very welcome. And if any of you need me for anything, my room is down the hall," Twilight said, taking her leave.

"See you guys in the morning," Silver said, as he retreated into his room. The others did the same.

The next morning,

Ponies and the mutants were all gathered in front of town hall, for the mayor had a speech to deliver, "Ponies of Ponyville, I have called you all here today for a very special reason. Princess Celestia, with the urging of some of our newest residents, has decided on what to do with the castle ruins," the mayor said, motioning towards Nyx's old castle, "I now turn over the speech to Silver Fujiyama," the mayor said, before moving out of the way for Silver to walk up to the podium.

"As of today, those ruins will be restored as a guild hall. This guild will go by the name 'Alicorn's Wish'. Your local princess, Twilight Sparkle has informed us about the castles history. Which is why we are going to refurbish the castle as a guild hall, for the greater good," Silver announced. The ponies and mutants all murmured amongst each other, unsure of how to feel, "We understand your concern, but as I said, the castle's reputation is going to be rebuilt as something good. So we ask that you all just give it a chance," Silver said to the ponies and mutants. A wave of silence washed over the crowd, which soon erupted into a wave of cheers from everyone.

"Looks like they're in agreement," Twilight commented.

"Then we should start thinking about how to reshape the castle," Carlos added.

"Leave that to me," Francisco declared, as he made his way to the castle.

"And I've sent an article to every newsprint publisher in the land. So everyone will know of the guild," Celestia added.

"So, how do guilds work?" Toby asked.

"Well, a guild gets requests from all over the land. Each request has a reward, like money, or other types of rewards. Before heading out on a job, a guild member should get details from the guild master. The master then tells that member where they need to go for that particular job. After reaching the destination, the member needs to seek out the client to get details on what the job entails. Once the job is complete, the member gets rewarded for their hard work," Raiden explained, as they made their way to their new guild hall. When they got there, they saw Francisco standing outside, looking pleased with himself.

"Got it done already?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Yeah, it wasn't all that hard. I even went ahead and put in a bulletin board for the requests," Francisco replied.

"Excellent. Shall we take a look?" Maria asked, as they walked into the new guild hall. Inside, they saw that it was like a malt shop. It had an ice cream bar, a jukebox, and a bulletin board, just as the spacial teen said.

"Well, what do you think?" Francisco asked.

"We love it! Its so retro and cool," Icezer replied.

"Oh, and I don't know if you noticed, but I added a café outside, and some dormitories for everyone," Francisco added.

"Well, in any case, the Alicorn's Wish guild is now open for business," Silver declared. Just then, a gray Pegasus with yellow eyes, a blonde mane and tail, and bubbles cutie mark entered the guild.

"Delivery for the guild master!" she called.

"That would be me," Silver said. Ditzy then handed Silver some folders, before taking her leave.

"So, what'd ya get, nya?" Naomi asked. Opening one of the folders, and pulling out a piece of paper, Silver saw that it was a request.

"Man, I knew that news gets around fast in Equestria, but I never knew this fast," Silver commented.

"Well, in any case, you guys have jobs now," Chris commented.

"I'd better get these posted," Silver said, as he took out the requests, and hung them up on the bulletin board accordingly to where they came from, "Ok, so now we can take jobs," Silver said,

"Well, we'll take our leave. We'll see you guys later," Twilight said, as she and the others left the guild hall. Discord then approached the Fujiyama brothers, and Heaven.

"You kids are still up for me adopting you, right?" he asked.

"Of course we are, Dad," Silver replied, as he went behind the counter to get started on his work.

"True, we'll be out on jobs every now and again," Raiden added.

"Well, maybe I can help you kids out around the guild?" Discord offered.

"That would be appreciated, thank you," Silver replied.

"Well, for now, we'll head out on our first jobs," Eliza said, as she and the others, save for Silver and Heaven went to find some jobs. For the rest of the day, each mutant either took on a job, or hung out around the guild hall.

Chapter 1: Why don't I have a human? (rewritten)

Deep within the boundaries of a realm that seemed to be made entirely out of chaos stood a house that seemed entirely normal on the outside, but on the inside was completely bizarre. Doors were on ceilings, pictures were on the floor, etc. Within the house stood the spirit of chaos, the draconequss, Discord, who was standing in front of wall of photos of all his closest friends. Taking a closer examination of the pictures, he saw that each of his friends each had a human child to call their own; Fluttershy had Toby, Rarity had Conner, Luna had Timmy and Drake, Twilight had Joshua, Kelly, Crystal, and Cory, Pinkie Pie had Melody and Clover, Celestia had Chris, Rainbow Dash had Echo, Applejack had Mike, and Cadence and Shining Armor had Nathan. The more he looked at the photos, the more jealous he became, "It's not fair! They all have human kids of their own, as well as kids of their own species. I mean, I have my daughter, but why don't I have my own human child?!" Discord ranted, clenching his bear claw. He then sighed, "Oh well, I'm sure I'll find my own human kid sooner or later," he said, looking at a nearby clock, "Well, for now I'd better go meet up with my pals," Discord said, teleporting away.

In an abandoned warehouse, in the futuristic city of New Burbank,

Nine figures sat around a small blanket as they ate a meager feast of fruits and bread. Eight of them were teenage boys, and the ninth was a little girl, no older than five years. "We need to change the meal plans," one of the boys commented. He had a green t-shirt and khaki shorts. He had brown hair and blue eyes.

"But what more can we do Brian? Ever since John Clark came into power, we're lucky to get this," another teen said. He was dressed in oriental attire and was wearing a straw hat. He had blue eyes and brown hair like Brian.

"Raiden is right. Until we find a better solution, we need to make do with what we have," another teen said. He was wearing a denim jacket, yellow t shirt, and long jeans.

"I know Silver, but if we keep this up, we're bound to get caught sooner or later," Brian said.

"It won't come to that, will it?" the little girl asked a teen who was dressed up like a ninja. She had long blonde hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a pink dress.

"Don't worry Heaven. We won't allow you to fall into the wrong hands," the ninja replied.

"Akira makes a good point. Just remember that, and nothing will happen, cool?" another teen asked. He was wearing a bright blue shirt, beige shorts, and had an orange headband.

"Icezer, I told you; Takashi or Echo-Echo and I prefer to be called by our new names," the ninja said.

"Well excuse me!" Icezer said defensively.

"Now break it up you two. Remember, we need to finish lunch, before we continue on," a teen that looked to be a goth said. He was dressed all in black.

"HEIRU MAKES A SOLD POINT. IF JOHN CLARK'S FORCES FIND US HERE, THEY'LL DO ANYTHING TO CATCH US," a blue robot teen commented.

"Well, if that does happen Echo-Echo, I'll just open a portal to somewhere else," another teen said. He appeared to be dressed in robes that looked to be made of spacial energy.

"But remember Francisco, that's only a short term solution. John's forces will only increase their hunting forces," Raiden said.

"Looks guys, we'll deal with this after lunch," Silver said. It was then they heard helicopters whirring outside.

"How'd they find us so fast!?" Brian demanded.

"Don't know, but we need to get out of here, now!" Silver said, as banging could be heard from the doors.

"OPEN UP! WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED! YOU ARE ALL UNDER ARREST!" a voice on a megaphone called.

"Francisco, anytime you want to open a portal, now's the time!" Brian said.

"Stop pressuring me! Its hard enough to open a portal without you guys breathing down my neck!" Francisco snapped, as he began to open a portal. While he was doing so, he got a splitting headache all of a sudden. Normally when this happened, the portal he would open would close up instantly, but it stayed open.

"You ok Francisco?" Silver asked.

"Uh, yeah, anyway, get through the portal!" the spacial teen said. One by one, each of the teens went through the portal, along with Heaven. Francisco was the last one to go through, just as the soldiers outside broke through.

"They're gone!" one of the soldiers yelled.

"Man, John Clark is not going to be happy about this," another commented.

"Well, you're going to be the one to explain our failure this time," the first soldier said.

"What?! Why me?!" the second soldier asked.

"Because I gave the report last time," the first soldier replied. The second groaned dreadfully, as they got back in the car.

Deep in the Everfree forest,

The portal opened up, depositing the nine siblings in the middle of a dark forest, "Ok, so where are we now?" Raiden pondered, looking around.

"Looks to be the middle on a thick forest of some kind," Stealth replied, looking around.

"In any case, maybe we should try to find some sort of shelter. Who knows what could be lurking in the shadows," Heiru said.

"I think I can see some ruins of that way," Icezer said, pointing in the direction of what appeared to be the ruins of a castle.

"That should be suitable enough, c'mon," Silver said, as they made their way towards the castle ruins, unaware of green eyes staring at them from the shadows.

In Canterlot Castle,

While enjoying their lunch, the two sisters, Celestia and Luna both felt a power spike, "What was that sister?" Luna asked.

"I can't say, but I'm almost certain it came from the Everfree Forest. Most Likely in the vicinity of our old castle," Celestia replied.

"What shall we do about it?" Luna asked. Celestia pondered.

"We should send Twilight and her friends to investigate. Discord too," Celestia replied, as she began to write to Twilight.

"My most faithful student,

I write to you about a sudden power spike from within the Everfree Forest. I am requesting that you and your friends, Discord included, go and investigate, and report back to me upon discovery,

Your mentor and fellow Princess, Celestia," after finishing the letter, she rolled it up, and teleported it away.

"Hopefully it is nothing of ill will," Luna commented.

"I hope so too Luna," Celestia replied.

In Sugarcube Corner,

Twilight and friends, minus Fluttershy and Discord, were all sitting around Sugarcube Corner, completely bored out of their minds, "Why can anything cool happen?" Rainbow Dash complained.

"And with our kids all out doing their own thing, that pretty much slims our options," Applejack commented. They all let out a bored sigh. Just then, Spike came in with a scroll.

"A message from Celestia!" Spike said, giving Twilight the scroll. Their ears perked up upon hearing this, as Twilight began reading the scroll.

"Girls, apparently there's some sort of power surge that is emanating from deep within the Everfree Forest. We have been called upon to investigate and report back," Twilight said.

"Finally, an adventure!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"We've also been asked to bring Discord along so he may help," Twilight added.

"So our first stop is Fluttershy's cottage to pick her up along with Discord?" Rarity asked. Twilight nodded, as they all left.

Back with the nine siblings,

All nine siblings stood in awe at the ruins that stood in front of them, "This architecture is incredible," Raiden commented, examining the ruins.

"In any case, it should provide suitable shelter, right?" Silver asked.

"Hmm, a few holes in the walls, and the doors aren't stable, but we should be able to fortify this place by nightfall," Raiden replied, as they entered the castle, unaware of the green eyes watching them. Inside, they saw that the inside of the castle was just as aged as the outside.

"Man, looks like a train ran through here," Brian commented.

"Well, our first concern should be repairing these walls, and then fixing those doors. From there we can find somewhere in this place to rest up," Silver replied. They were just about to get to their tasks, when they heard a bone chilling howl. They all turned to see a pack of what they thought were wolves that were made out of wood.

"What the...?!" Icezer exclaimed.

"Wood Wolves?" Heiru added.

"They look pretty hungry," Stealth commented.

"HEAVEN, TAKE COVER," Echo-Echo said. Heaven complied, as she hid behind a large slab of rock, just as the wolves attacked.

"Get out of here!" Brian yelled, summoning a tornado of fire that seared through the ceiling, burning some of the wolves to a crisp. Silver attacked by launching a blast of telekinetic energy at the wolves, causing them to shatter.

"Your hunch was right Raiden. They're just piles of wood. Maybe we can drive them back?" Silver asked.

"I doubt that highly," Raiden said, as he found himself surrounded by several of the wood wolves, "What a complete bother," Raiden sighed, completely bored, as he unleashed a column of lightning, which burnt up all the wood wolves. The lightning was strong enough to break through the ceiling.

With Twilight's group,

"So that's what we need to check out," Twilight said, explaining the situation to Fluttershy and Discord. Fluttershy seemed a bit hesitant at the task.

"Seems a rather straightforward mission," Discord commented. Just then, they all noticed a pillar of fire erupting from deep within the forest.

"Fire? The Everfree Forest isn't on any volcanic area," Applejack said.

"It must be some other source," Twilight theorized.

"Uh, maybe I'll just stay here," Fluttershy meekly said.

"No can do Fluttershy. Celestia wants all of us to investigate," Twilight replied. Just then, a volley of lightning erupted.

"Fret not my dear Fluttershy, I will provide suitable defenses," Discord commented.

"This is weird," Rainbow said, looking at the lightning.

"Yeah, lightning should never last this long," Pinkie piped in.

"And its coming from trees," Rarity added.

"Which means our hunch about an outside source is correct," Twilight said, as they all made their way into the Everfree Forest, with Fluttershy staying close to Discord and Twilight.

"If I'm not mistaken, the direction of the fire and lightning were coming from the Castle of the Two Sisters," Discord commented.

"Which means something must be happening there," Twilight said, as they picked up the pace.

After about ten minutes, they arrived at the castle ruins, where they saw several Timberwolves being thrown out of the castle, completely singed, or broken, "What could have happened here?" Discord wondered, examining the charred spots on the Timberwolves.

"What do you make of it?" Rarity asked.

"Hmm, no ordinary fire or lightning could do this damage," Discord said, looking towards the castle. Carefully, the group approached the castle. Peering in, they saw eight teenage boys, all who seemed exhausted from a fight.

Chapter 8: Season Harvest and Toby captured?! Attack the flying fortress!

Back in the Titan lair,

After they bid farewell to their parents as they went to complete their tasks, the children all decided to try to find something to do in the Titan Lair. While he and Mike were playing some video games, Toby looked over to see a depressed look on Seasons face, "Uh, can we pause the game Mike? Season looks like she's down in the dumps," Toby asked.

Looking over to see his little sister looking very sad, Mike then nodded in agreement, and walked over to the honey orange filly, "Hey, Season, are you feeling ok?" Mike asked.

Looking up to see her oldest brother and her first cousin, Season let out a sad sigh, "Well, ta be honest, no. Ah'm feeling guilty for what happened to Serenity," she replied, tearing up.

Pulling his sister into a warm hug, Mike then patted Season on the back, "Shh, its ok, any one of us would've done the same for you," he reassured.

"Yeah, and don't worry, I have a feeling we'll get Serenity back," Toby said, which helped to lift the spirits of Season.

"Thanks guys, I appreciate it," Season said, hugging her brother back, and nuzzling under her cousins chin.

"Hey, its that robot!" The trio heard Kelly's voice coming from around the corner, and went to check it out. When they got to where the commotion was, they saw a large green robot, with piercing red eyes.

"The same robot that kidnapped Vibrant," Toby said. The robot then took notice of both Toby and Season.

"SUBJECTS IDENTIFIED," the robot said, as it moved closer.

"Season, Toby, run!" Mike said, which is what they did, but it was all for naught, as the robot launched some cables at the two before they could escape. Season let out a high pitched scream, which caught the ears of Discord, Fluttershy, Heiru, and Icezer, as well as the other children.

Rushing towards where the screaming came from, everyone gasped to see Season and Toby were captured by the robot, "SUBJECTS CAPTURED. RETURNING TO BASE," the robot said, just as Heiru and Icezer ran to go and save Toby and Season, but they were too late. The robot then used some propulsion systems to fly through the roof, and away from the Titan Lair.

"TOBY!" Fluttershy cried in despair.

"MOMMA!" Toby called, scared of being taken away from his mother.

Feeling frustrated for not saving his new friends, Heiru then pulled out a communicator, "Silver, come in Silver, this is Heiru. A big robot just stole Season Harvest and Toby," he said.

"*Bzzt* 10-4, My group is already in pursuit of James' base," Silvers voice came from the communicator.

"What do you mean?" Icezer asked.

"Lucky Joy and Crystal Charity were gobbled up by James' Chaos creature, according to Brian, and their base is a giant flying fortress," Silver replied, which made everyone gasp.

"A flying WHAT?!" Heiru asked.

"Its true. Icezer, Heiru, get to the two remaining jets, and take to the skies. We'll need all the help we can get with this behemoth," Silver instructed.

"On it!" the two replied, as they rushed to the jet hanger.

"Discord, can we trust you to keep the others safe?" Icezer asked.

"Don't worry boys, I'll make sure to keep them safe," Discord replied, as both titans flew off in their jets.

Later in the skies above Ponyville,

A dark shadow cast over the normally happy town of Ponyville. As the townsfolk looked up, they all gasped to see a humungous flying object. The high class city of Canterlot also took notice of the flying monstrosity, the princesses as well. "Sister, what is that thing?" Luna asked.

"I don't know Luna, but it can't be good," Celestia replied, as she and Luna saw a bunch of smaller aircrafts flying towards the larger machine, firing on it. Upon closer examination of the smaller crafts through a telescope, Celestia could faintly see the boys that Discord brought with him, each flying their own aircrafts.

"Princesses, what are those monstrosities?" the regal sisters looked to see some of the Canterlot nobility looking at them curiously.

"Worry not, our loyal subjects, the smaller crafts are on our side, but the larger one is another story," Celestia reassured.

Meanwhile, in the Mane Carrier,

James was sneering at the teenagers who were attempting to thwart his plans, along with the Power Ponies' enemies, "Don't those flies know when to quit?!" James asked.

"No need to worry James, my mummy minions are working every turret onboard," the Pharaoh reassured.

Looking over at Shadow Mane, High Heel saw her teammates staring off into space. Feeling worried for the stealthy thief, High Heel went over to her friend, "Hey, Shadow Mane, are you alright?" High Heel asked.

Snapping back into reality, Shadow Mane saw a worried look on High Heels face, "Oh, yeah, I'm fine. I was just thinking about something," Shadow Mane replied.

"Would you like to talk about it?" the shoe themed villain asked.

"Uh, sure," Shadow Mane replied, as she and High Heel went to another room.

After the two mares left, there came a beeping from a monitor, "James, Alpha has returned with the targets," Long Face said.

"Good, I shall meet Alpha in the landing bay, in the meantime, can you guys supervise the activity here?" James asked, which everyone nodded, as he left.

Soon after James left, High Heel and Shadow Man came back in, "So, you believe that because of that vision, you have reason to believe that Humdrum is your long lost son?" High Heel asked, which Shadow Mane nodded in confirmation.

"What's this about a long lost son?" Long Face asked.

"Well, when we were defeated by those humans in Ponyville, and as I fell towards Humdrum, I saw a vision of the son I had to give up because I couldn't afford to keep him," Shadow Mane replied.

"I see, so you believe Humdrum is your son?" the Pharaoh asked, which Shadow Mane nodded.

"Hmm, well, if the Power Ponies ever find us up here, then we can ask them of Humdrums side of the story," Mane-iac said, just as they felt a hard jerk, "GAH! Are those pests still firing at us?!" she asked hysterically.

"Minions! Blast those humans out of the sky!" the Pharaoh ordered, which they complied, pressing some buttons.

Outside the Mane Carrier,

While they were blasting different parts of the huge battleship, Echo-Echo noticed something about some of the turrets, and how they were moving. Upon closer examination, Echo-Echo then noticed that they were locking onto their planes, "UH, GUYS? I THINK WE GOT TROUBLE!" the robot teen said uneasily.

"Don't worry, just make sure you keep moving," Silver instructed. What he didn't know was happening next, was that the energy cannons fired, blasting of a wing from each of the jets.

"GAH, I'M HIT!" Francisco cried.

"I am too!" Brian raged.

"Keep calm guys, we should try to find some where soft we can land!" Silver said, as each of the planes began to fall out of the sky.

Meanwhile, with Eris' group,

As they were standing in front of picturesque waterfall, Eris was thinking to herself, 'I was supposed to guard the Master Element, but now I only have one piece of it. What's the point of going on?' she cursed, as another vision entered her mind. It had the same tribal mare from her earlier vision looking on at an alter in fear, as it was ablaze. Snapping back into reality, Eris shook her head, which concerned her group.

"Eris, are you ok?" Raiden asked.

"Yeah, I was just thinking about something. I wasn't able to protect the Master Element, but we can at least gather what's left of it. I wasted too much time moping, so lets get on with the search," Eris said, as the others went on with their search.

A few hours later, the four were searching in an ancient temple, "Hey guys! I think I hit a jackpot!" Stealth called. The others came rushing, and sure enough, there were fragments of the Master Element. They all rushed to gather the pieces, but when they placed their hands and hooves on a piece, they were all engulfed in a bright light. Opening their eyes, they saw that they weren't in the temple anymore, but out in another cave of some kind. Looking around, they could see some sort of alter, with a young red mare with an orange mane and sky blue eyes standing in front of it, with little fairy ponies floating about.

"Please Chaos, the invaders are coming, we have to flee!" the mare cried, which resulted in some sort of indescribable sound coming from the waters, "Yes, I understand, we may flee, but you must stay here, I know that," the mare said, as the fairies started fluttering about, "Oh, uh, don't worry, I'm sure everything will be alright, I promise," the mare said, as the fairies began singing happily, as they took the mare up the stairs to the summit of the alter. Looking around, the mare saw six beautiful gem stones, "The Elements of Harmony," she said, as she reached the summit, where she beheld a large rainbow crystal, which sparkled in the colors of a rainbow, which the mare was able to figure out what it was saying, "Yes, the servers are the six harmony, our friendship intensifies their power. The controller, serves to unify the harmony," the mare said, when she realized something, "Its you! You control the Elements of harmony!" she exclaimed, as a bright light surrounded Eris and the others.

Opening their eyes again, they could see that they were transported in front a large alter of some kind, one that Eris knew very well, "What was all that about?" Filli Second asked.

"I'm not sure, but it might have something to do with the master element. Yes, it has to be! We've gathered quite a few pieces, so I think we got all the ones we need," Eris said, as she rushed to the alters summit. Focusing her magic between her talon and lion paw, the missing fragments appeared, and as she threw them up in the air, the fragments went back to where they originated, and a large rainbow crystal object appeared.

"Wow! Its just like in that vision!" Raiden commented.

"Just about, there's still one piece missing, so we'll have to keep looking," Eris said, just as a picture appeared in the Master Element.

"From what Silver told us on the communicator, that's James' ship," Stealth explained.

"But why would the Master Element show us this?" Eris asked.

"Maybe its a warning?" Filli Second asked.

"Maybe. James must be up to something dangerous!" Raiden said, as he and the others left.

Back in the titan lair infirmary,

Francisco was resting soundly in his bed, while dreaming. He saw Heaven walking through a forest, all happy and calm, until a giant robot came along, and forced the little girl to run in the opposite direction, and towards her brothers. Upon seeing their sister in danger, the titans went on the attack, Silver unleashing a psychic wave, Brian using powerful fireballs, Icezer launching a beam of cold energy, Heiru using a concentrated beam of ghost energy, Stealth throwing a nature bomb, Echo-Echo using sound blasts, Raiden throwing thunderbolts, and Francisco slashing with a special rift. The combined attacks were able to destroy the robot, only to reveal more on the way. The titans smiled at the new challenge, and went on the attack, just as Francisco woke up, just barely hearing dream Heaven say, "YAY big bwothers! You beat those big meanies of wobots!" Sitting up in his bed, Francisco looked around, seeing Discord, Heaven, Fluttershy and Twilight all looking at him with concern.

"What happened?" Francisco asked.

"You were shot down by James' battleships turrets. But you were able to land safely along the shores of the lake," Fluttershy explained.

"Unfortunately, James got away, but your brothers are doing better than we expected," Discord said, pointing towards the others, as they watched the TV in annoyance at the news story.

"And I'm sure you heard that Toby was kidnapped by his own father along with Season Harvest? Twilight asked.

"Yeah, but we won't rest until we bring the two of them home, along with the other four, right guys?" Francisco asked his brothers, who all nodded in determination.

"Right, but for now, you really need to rest," Fluttershy said, pushing Francisco back down on his bed.

"But we can't sit idly by while that jerk is out there, doing who knows what," Brian argued.

"Brian, Fluttershy's right, Francisco should stay behind and get some rest," Silver said, placing a hand on his brothers shoulder.

"No, I feel fine! I'm going to the hanger to modify the jets, so we can counter those turrets," Francisco argued, as he got out of bed, and left the room.

"WAIT! You can't move around just yet!" Twilight yelled.

"Give it up Twilight, once Francisco has set his mind on something, there's no changing his mind," Silver told the princess, who shakily nodded with reluctance.

"But, he's still injured!" Fluttershy said.

"Don't wowwy! My bwothers are wewwy stwong!" Heaven reassured.

"By the way, when did you and your group get back Twilight?" Silver asked.

"Well, it was sometime after we got your message, so my group decided to head back, so we can put our heads together on this," Twilight replied.

"Alright, lets head to hanger, and see if Francisco is done with those modifications," Icezer said, as everyone left the room to go to the hanger.
