On-board a speeding train, the passengers were on their way to the city of Broncotopia. They are going to this large city for a variety of reasons. They could be tourist visiting the city, they could have friends of family living in the city, or they could just be moving to that city. Whatever their reasons are, it was going to be a long trip there.

To past the time, the ponies did a lot of activities. Some talk to their companions, play games, read books, listening to music, or peacefully slept. While they were busy doing their own things, everypony are totally unaware of the two super heroines riding the train with them.

Sitting quietly to themselves are two mares. One was a tan earth pony with a long light blue mane and brown eyes. She was reading a magazine while her companion was looking out the window. Her friend is a pale blue pegasus, with blue eyes and purple mane with a lighter purple streak.

The blue mare was looking out the window, with a smile on her face.

“Man, it's been a long time since we been on a vacation! We should really get more time off from our work!” She exclaimed.

Her friend lowers the magazine and look at the blue pegasus. “Lighting, you do realize we're not on vacation right? We're here to find and meet these guys.” She showed her the magazine she was reading and on the page it showed six costume ponies with a large white tagline that says, The New Power Ponies?

“Oh come on Sandy, just because this is a mission, doesn't mean we can't still have some fun around this city.” Lightning responded. “Beside why do we even need to meet these guys?”

Sandy raise an eyebrow at this. “You don't remember what we talked about at the meeting?”

“All I remember was hearing about was going to a this city and I just kinda stop listening from there.” Lightning answered, getting a sigh from her tan friend.

“Matterhorn wants us to meet these heroes and try to talk them into joining a bigger organization.”

“Oh yeah, I vaguely remember something about that, Matterhorn want to form a league of heroes or something.”

“Of course Lighting. The world is changing, we're no longer the only heroes known. More superheroes are appearing everyday. There's Mare-Do-Well in Trotham City, the Terrific Three in Neighyork, and Mighty Mustang in Mustangville. And those are just a few of the many appearing around world. Heck, there's even a mention of none ponies becoming heroes. Like a violent griffon vigilante and an armored zebra.”

The two mares continue their conversation about the various heroes appearing and listing them by name, location, and what can they do. Suddenly the train's intercom announce everypony on-board that they'll be arriving at the Broncotopia Train Station soon.

A few minutes later the train arrive at the station. Once it fully stopped, the doors opened and the ponies started pouring out. Among the crowd of colorful ponies, two mares were pushing their way through.

“Jeez, time like this I wish we have some of those cool flying vehicles those other heroes have.” Lightning Complain.

“Well hey not all of us are rich enough to afford such things.” Sandy retort.

After leaving the station, the two found themselves a hotel, called the Starcross Hotel. They book a room and began unpacking. Instead of clothing, the two ponies were taking out their costumes. Lightning was taking out her navy blue outfit and headgear. Beneath all this, was her golden lightning bolt necklace. Meanwhile, Sandy was taking out her red outfit with black ski mask and long green cloth wraps. Along with her costume, her briefcase also has her lasso and belt, filled with various gadgets.

“So, how are we going to find these guys?” Lightning questions as she puts on her Zapp outfit.

“Simple Lightning.” Sandy relied. “We'll wait for some criminal to rob a bank or something, and soon those guys will show up.”

“But, who knows how long that will take?” Lightning groaned.

Suddenly the two heard an explosion outside and they both gallop to the balcony of their room. Looking down, they can see a damaged armored chariot turned over to its side and two other normal chariot blown to pieces. Standing on top of the armor chariot was a gray pegasus. The stallion was wearing a black helmet that covered his face, a black Kevlar vest, and black boots to match. What stood out the most about this stallion, was all the bombs he was packing.

“Hurry up and unload those bits!” The gray stallion shouted at the two stallions dragging the many bags of bits out of the turned chariot.

His two minions were busy picking up the heavy bags and stacking them into a large pile. Near this pile of gold coin, was their third member, a unicorn. He was there getaway guy, once they have all the bags he'll teleport them and his team back to their hideout.

Of in the distance the siren alarm can be heard. The Broncotopia police were already on the scene, the first to arrive were to police chariot, rushing towards the criminals.

The gray pegasus on top spotted them. He then pick a bomb from one of his vest's many pockets. Taking out two bombs, he threw them a few meters ahead of him. The bombs he tossed were land mines. They were basically bombs that explode if step on and those two police chariots were galloping right towards them.

Then out of nowhere two energy beams came and hit the two landmines, The result was two simultaneous explosion, which cause the two police chariots to stop in their tracks.

“Baron Bomber!” A mare shouted at the gray pegasus. The Baron Bomber turn his head in the direction of the voice and saw two costumed pegasus mare, flying above him. The mare on the right wore a red jump suit with golden circles around the collar and all her four legs. The leg part of her suit were blue. The mare on the left wore the same outfit, but the color red and blue are in reverse. Both wear the same, red and blue masquerade masks that covers the upper half of their faces. Their coats were violet and manes white as snow.

“Give yourself up now or you shall face our might!” The one on the right said.

“Or don't, I'll be glad to send you to the hospital after I am done with ya.” Said the left mare.

Beneath his helmet, the Baron Bomber couldn't help but roll his eyes at the mare's attempt to be threatening. “That's cute, the wonder twins is trying to act all tough.”

This got a response from the mare on the left who gritted her teeth, while her sister remain cool-headed. “We're not the wonder twins! We're the Dynamic Duo!” She yelled out.

“Yeah whatever, think fast!” The Baron Bomber quickly threw a bomb at the two.

Thinking quickly, the left mare shot an energy beam at the round device. This prove to be unwise as the device exploded, sending a powerful blast wave that smack both mares to the building behind them. They left a big hole on the structure, before falling down to the street below.

“Well that was easy.” Said the Baron. He then took out another bomb from one of his pouches. “Time to finish them off.” However, before he could pull the pin, a horseshoe came flying out of nowhere and knock the grenade out of his hoof.

“Not so fast Baron Bomber!” Said a mare's voice behind him.The Baron then turn around and saw another costume mare. “

“And just who are you?”

“The names Mistress Mare-velous,” She introduce herself. “And I like you to meet my friend, Zapp.”

The red costumed mare pointed her hoof up and the Baron's head followed where she was pointing. Right above him was another costume mare, who was holding a golden lightning bolt necklace in her mouth. In one swift motion, Zapp commanded the force of nature and brought down the mighty force of lightning upon the Baron.

After he was hit by lighting, the Baron was all charred up and fell into unconsciousness. His three henchponies witness this and immediately tried to get out of there. Before they can go any further, a lasso was thrown around the three and tied them up. The unicorn tried to use his teleportation spell, but was knocked out by Mistress Mare-Velous's horseshoe.

With both the villain and minions dealt with, Zapp and Mare-Velous decided to check up on the two twin mares, who by this point were starting to recover.

“Hey you two alright?” Mare-Velous asked as she stretch out her hoof.

Shaking her head, the red and blue mare grabbed Mare-Velous's hoof. “Yeah we're fine.” The mare said as she was pull up. “Thank you for the save.” She then turn her attention to her twin sister who was also on her hooves. “Who are two by the way?”

Before either of the two Power Pony could answer, somepony else already beat them to it.

“The red one is Mistress Mare-Velous and the blue one is Zapp.”
The sudden masculine voice startled the two and quickly turn around to see who was talking. Behind them a was stallion wearing a brown and green costume. His outfit comes with a mask that covers his entire face, except his eyes and mouth.

While his costume does cover his entire body, bits of him are still revealed. For example through his mask, his orange coat can be seen. Plus his eyes are green, the same kind that matches his costume.

“These two are part of the superhero team called the Power Ponies.”

“Whoa the Power Ponies? Oh man, I admire your guy's work!” The blue and red mare dash towards the two. “You guys are awesome!”

While Mare-Velous taken back the costume mare's praises, he partner soak in the praises.

“Is it true that you tricked Magnet Mare into thinking that she lost her power?”

“Oh yeah funny story, you see-”

“Look, as much as we want share our stories, we're actually here on business.” Mare-Velous interrupted.

“Oh? What kind of business?” The stallion enquired.

“Well before I answer that, how about you tell us your names.”

“Oh right I forgot to introduce ourselves, I'm Steedfast and those two behind you are Wonder Mare and Marvel Mare.”

“That's right!” The blue and red mare exclaim. “Me and my sister, Wonder Mare are the Dynamic Duo!”

“There now that we introduce ourselves now will you answer my question, ma'am."

“Well the thing is Steedfast, we want the rest of your team to hear this.”

“Very well then I will tell the rest of our team. Meet us at the top of the Broncotopia city's museum at 5 PM.”

“Whoa wait a sec 5 PM? That's like a couple of hours now, why can't we do this now?” Zapp questioned.

“I'm sorry, but Horsepower, Crimson Knight and Scarlet Knight are currently busy with a mission. They will back by that time.” Steedfast answered. “Now if you excuse us, we're going back on patrol. “Come along you two.” He order the Dynamic Duo to follow him.

Both Wonder Mare and Marvel Mare spread their respective wings and fly after their teammate. Marvel Mare spare a glance at the two Power Ponies before returning her attention ahead.

“Great so now what?”
“Well we can go to the museum.” Mare-Velous suggested.

“What, why? The meeting is at five.”

“No Zapp, I mean go there and visit the building.”

Zapp though about for a bit before shrugging.”Sure, kill some time before meeting them.”

She then she proceeds to fly in the direction where the museum is, right before her companion cough loudly to get her attention.

“What?”

“You're going to the museum dress as that.” Mare-Velous pointed out.

“Whoops, heh better change back.” Zapp then fly her way back to their hotel room.

Mistress Mare-Velous then took out a hookshot and shot it at the balcony of their room. The hook hit its mark and the string started retracting itself, bringing the costume heroine with it.

Unbeknownst to the two heroine, a lone pony was watching them on from on top of the building across the street, When the pony has seen enough, he swiftly turn around and left the scene.
