Wood Man stomped angrily down the hallways of Madara's castle. There were multiple teams in need of an extra member! But they just wouldn't have him. But why? He was strong! Dependable! To himself, at least. He kept wandering the halls until a figure appeared in front of him, obstructing his path. At closer inspection, the one in his way was Pinkamena.

"Lady Pinkamena! To what do I owe the pleasure?" Wood Man asked, quickly bowing down, with some trouble due to his large wood body.

"What's wrong? You seem kind of down Woody?" Pinkamena said in a soft, almost suductive tone.

Wood Man blushed a bit. "No, im just not in a good mood as of this morning." Wood Man lied. He didn't want to look weak in front of her.

"Now Woody don't lie to me."

"It's really nothing ma'am." He assured, now swearing bullets.

Pinkamena sighed before quickly and violently tossing her hair backward, as a large, dark ball of mass shot out, smashing itself angrily onto Wood Man, embedding itself inside of his body. It seemed to begin to consume him, the Dark Matter covering every inch of his convulsing body until he could no longer feel. Following this display was a small explosion of the matter, the clouds resulting hiding the monstrosity that it created.

Wood Man was gone. Now what stood in front of Pinkamena was a monster. He was now a murky tree giant, giant moss covered logs for hands, and protected by spiny vines from each side.

The pair laughed as Forest Man stomped off to find its first target.

Crash Man sat under an umbrella outside the Burgers and Hay Fries restaurant. With Lektra Bolt. In a suit and tie. On a date.

How could this have happened....? Crash Man wondered to himself repetitively before the memory of him feeling pony emotions for her surfaced themselves atop his memory. Crash Man shook his head, disappointed at hinself for allowing something of this magnitude to occur.

Lektra noticed this and looked up from the ravaged fries.

"What's wrong Crash?" Lektra asked, worried about the combat robot.

"It's no-" Crash Man started before time around him began to slow.

Literally

Crash Man watched in horror as a light purple figure darted up to his Marefriend, who was turning her head in slow motion, and punched her straight in the muzzle. Lektra flew back in slow motion, crashing through multiple other tables, before time flow returned to normal.

"Lektra!" Crash Man cried as he ran towards Lektra at speeds that would impress Quick Man. The same purple figure jumped in front of him.

"Time is very precious, Crash Man. We wouldn't want to waste it fighting each other, now would we?" Time Man said menacingly, stopping Crash Man in his tracks.

"Time Man! Move now! I dont want to hurt you!"

"Neither do I. But time is not on our side. We need to finish project Tsuki-No-Me and you sitting around with these ingrates is not beneficial to the plan!" Time Man shot back.

"But....I..." Crash Man mumbled as he held his head in his hands, his thoughts racing as he struggled to choose his side. He was a robot! He had to fulfill his purpose! But.... he loves her?

"Im sorry Time Man." Crash Man said as he readied his drill.

Time Man sighed. "Shameful. We just wasted thirty seconds."

Crash Man rushed Time Man as he struck and erratic pose. As he did, time flow began to slow once again, Time Man rushing up to Crash and kneeing him in the stomach, causing him to convulse backward. Time Man followed this up by a quick uppercut to the chin, causing Crash to fly into the air before violently crashing down. As he fell, time returned to normal, amplifying his pain.

Crash Man ignored the pain centered on his stomach and did a leg sweep targeting Time Man's legs. Time Man was able to swiftly lift one leg, but was slow with the other one, Crash Man quickly lifting it skyward.

A sickening crunch was heard as Crash Man flipped Time Man onto the ground, Time Man's private area bent. Time Man lie there, shaking.

"Oh crap...!" Crash Man said, realizing what he did. He ran over to check to see if he was okay, but as he did, time began to slow once again. Crash Man had a confused look on his face as Time Man lie there, still as a scarecrow.

"What could he be doing?" Crash Man wondered.

After a few steps toward him, time flow returned to normal, and Crash Man continued to run, but slid on his heels as he noticed that both Time Man and Lektra were gone.

"What the?!" Crash said aloud as he scoped his surroundings. All he spotted was a small robot lying face down in the dirt of the whole incident. He ran towards it and picked it up in his arms.

"Sparky..." Crash Man muttered remorsefully. Sparky was Lektra's favorite robot and personal assistant. He had been there for her since the beginning. In truth, Crash Man was sort of jealous of the robot. He thought about how easy it'd be to just end it right there...

Crash shook the thought out of his head, putting Sparky in the restaurant that they were eating at.

"Watch this for me." He commanded the nearest pony as he shot out of the door.

The Dark blue pony walked up to the inactive robot. She flipped her forward spiking mane back to reveal a devious grin on her face. She picked up the robot in her front hooves and put it onto her shoulder.

"Oh. Ill watch it for sure." Shadow Star said devilishly as she walked away with the robot.

Crash Man ran back outside dipping through flipped tables and chairs, attempting to find his marefriend. J
He looked through trees, in shops, virtually everywhere.

"Crash Man!" A voice called from above.

Crash Man looked up to see a grinning Time Man carrying Lektra in his left arm, his hand covering her mouth as she attempted to call to Crash Man.

"Time! Let her go!" Crash Man growled.

"Are you sure you want me to do that?" Time asked as he shifted his hand to grab the back of Lektra's neck. He held her out off the building, 23 feet above the ground.

"No!" Crash Man shouted as he pushed his hands up, showing that he was giving up.

Time Man grinned. "Well Crash Man. Do you see how much time we could have saved if you had just given up?"

Crash Man stared at Time with A deadly serious look on his face. He was almost ready to shoot a Crash Bomber at him, but Lektra could be caught in the explosion.

"Crash Man!" Leltra yelled. "Don't worry about me! Shoot your Crash Bom-" Lektra was stopped as Time Man grabbed her neck with both hands and started to strangle her.

"If you don't shut the hell up!" Time Man yelled. "I haven't the patience for you!"

Crash Man's eyes widened as anger surged through his body. His anger seeped out as it caused an explosion.

Time Man looked down, still holding Lektra, barely conscious in his hands. "What was that?" He asns himself as he looked at the resulting explosion.

Crash Man stood in the middle of a 2 feet deep crater, his body giving of a red aura. His body was glowing vibrant shades of blue instead of the regular red. His eyes were also shaded blue.

Time Man and Lektra Bolt looked at him in surprise.

"N-no way...!" Time Man muttered a bit scared.

"Hes... full synchro!" Lektra and Time Man said at the same time.

Time Man dropped Lektra onto the roof of the building he was on and began backing up.

Crash Man looked up with an overly serious look on his face, before running at unreal speeds towards the building, stepping his foot up, before completing running up the side of the building, leaving deep footprints in his wake. He jumped up over the edge and slammed his feet into the roof, Time Man backing up from the all-powerful robot.

"This... isn't .... poss...-" Time Man choked out before Crash Man rushed up to him and punched him in the jaw, Time Man crashing into a stack of crates at the back of the roof.

Time Man flipped up, and struck the same pose, time flow slowing once again. However, this time Crash Man still moved at regular speed, slamming his drill into Time Man's gut, mechanical nuts and blood spilling onto the ground.

Crash Man violently pulled the drill out. He lifted the drill back into the air.

"No Crash don't!" Lektra pleaded from behind him. "Thats enough!" As she pleaded for him to stop, she noticed a yellow beam shoot from the sky, landing behind Crash Man. Unfortunately Crash Man was to occupied with Time Man to notice. The creature was a tall robot, a foot or so taller than Crash Man. It had a plug on it's head and instead of hands, two electric convulsing spikes.

"Crashy! Look out!!!!!!!!" Lektra screamed at the top of her lungs.

Crash Man turned his head, but was stabbed through the chest with two spikes.

"GAUUUUUUUHGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!"

"Dark Side!" Lordy Snow, an officer in the Royal Forces called as he barged into Dark Side's room.

Dark Side drowsily rolled over. 'What? Can't ya see im trying to sleep?!" Dark Side said angrily.

"Well... we found Crash Man. And he's fighting another robot in the outskirts of Ponyville."

"Wha?! Quick! Get me a wheelchair!"

[Madara's Castle]

Madara walked into the dark room. He dodged his head out of the way of a few pipes that he had memorized the location of. He walked out into the center of the room, where all of the pipe lines connected into a giant vat, containing Zero. Or at least it should've been.

"What in blazes?! Where is Zero?!"
