Have you ever wondered what happened after Jake gave the order to ram the blade ship? Who says they died and not ended up somewhere magnificent? Join Jake and his friends the Animorphs in there new lives as citizens of Equesteria. Let the fun begin!!

This is just something I thought about one day and decided to play around with the idea of the Animorphs in Equestria. The original Idea came from the story titled Morphing is Magic (or something like that) I forgot the name of the author because I didn't feel like reading it so you know who you are and I would just like to say thanks for the inspiration. (The Gore tag is because if you have read any of the Animorphs books you will know that it has some pretty graphic descriptions of some of the battle wounds that they get.)

Chapter 1: Welcome Heroes (Marco POV)

…”Okay.” Jake took a deep breath. He looked around the bridge at each of us. At Tobias. At me.

“What was it, Marco? ‘Crazy, reckless, ruthless decisions’?” I nodded, wishing I had kept my mouth shut. There was a dangerous smile on Jake’s face. Rachel’s smile.

“Full emergency power to the engines,” Jake said. “Ram that Blade ship.”

With those words we then sped forwards, heading straight towards the Blade Ship. We all braced for impact. Suddenly there was a bright flash and I found myself in a white expanse of nothing. ‘Well this is interesting’ I thought to myself. I take a quick look around and find that Tobias and Jake are here with me. With another flash of light three people I thought I would never see again are reviled, Rachel, Cassie, and Aximili-Esgarrouth-Isthill (Ax). My first thought is that the Ellimist had summoned all of us to the afterlife when a strange, new voice says,

“Greetings to you heroes, I am Discord, the reformed master of chaos.”

Upon hearing this I was skeptical and turned to Jake and said,

“So fearless leader what are your orders this time?”

I knew I had gotten him to snap out of whatever stupor he had previously been in by his usual response of ‘Marco? Shut up.’ when that was over he finally seemed to realize that Cassie was here as well and rushed over and kissed her. Tobias who was in a similar state of shock as Jake came to and immediately flew over to Rachel and hugged her as best he could while in his hawk body. After he let go he landed and began to morph into his human form and once that was done he went up to Rachel and kissed her then went over to Ax and gave him a hug and said,

“Good to see you again Uncle.”

Ax then gives that strange Andalite smile that they do with only his eyes since they don’t have mouths and says in thought-speak,

Once all that was done we all heard the sound of slow clapping when the voice that we had never hear before spoke,

“Oh my, this is all rather heartwarming and all, but I do believe there is something I must tell you six. And that is that you six are about to go to a new world, a world where love and tolerance are the way of life and peace and happiness rule the land. This new world I’m sending you six to is called Equuis and the land you will appear in is called Equestria.”

After hearing this we all look in the direction of the voice and we see a strange being that looks like some weird mix of creatures. I turn to Ax and say,

“Hey Ax, do you know what that thing is?”

The creature then smiled and said,

“Of course where are my manners? I’m Discord! Reformed Lord of Chaos at your service! And If you’re wondering what I am, I am a Draconequus!”

After finishing his introduction, Discord spread his arms wide and said,

“Now that that is out of the way what do say? Will you accept my offer and live in happiness, or will you refuse me and have everything go back to the way it was before? Meaning that Rachel will go back to being dead, Cassie will go back to Earth, and you, Jake, and Tobias become dead. Your choice heroes.”

After hearing this we all huddled together and spent twenty minutes debating. After coming to a conclusion we turned around and Jake said,

“Very well Discord, we accept your offer to live in peace.”

And with that, there was a flash of light and suddenly we were all in the middle of a forest. After some looking around we managed to find a path and started walking (well Tobias started flying but you get the idea.) after about twenty minutes of travel, we came to a small hut at the edge of the forest. Upon walking up and knocking on the door Tobias then said,

The answer became apparent as a butter-yellow small horse with wings opened the door and,

“Y-yes? Can I help-“

She stopped talking as soon as she saw us and let out a small ‘eep’ and slammed the door shut. After three minutes of us standing around, I walked up and said,

“’’Let ME handle this I know how to get her to not be afraid.”

Jake then looks at me and says with a voice full of sarcasm,

“Uh-huh, sure you do Marco. We all know how well you are with girls.”

I looked at him and said in mock hurt,

“Why Jake, how you wound me with your words.”

Jake just shook his head and smiled at my brilliant joke and said,

“Fine. You can try and get her to not be so scared of us. Think you can do that?”

“Of course O fearless leader I can do that.”

Afterwards, I walked up the door and knocked three times and said,

“It’s okay. We won’t hurt you. We just want to talk and ask for directions for the nearest town.”

To our shock, it actually worked and she opened the door again and said in quiet voice,

“W-well okay. You can come in. T-that is if you want to.”

The way she said made me want to hug her but I felt now was not the time to be hugging small talking horses no matter how adorable they might look. After we all stepped inside We began to introduce ourselves in the following order,

“Hello. My name is Jake. I’m the unofficial leader of the group.”

“Sup? Names Marco. I provide comedic relief in certain situations.”

“Hi. My names Cassie. I’m usually the one who looks for passive solutions.”

“Hi. My names Rachel. I’m the one who is ready to fight to defend my friends.”

When we were all done introducing ourselves she said,

“It’s nice to meet you all my name is Fluttershy. And if you don’t me asking what are you four?”

As she said this she was pointing a hoof at me Jake, Cassie, and Rachel. I spoke up and said,

“We are humans. And Tobias is a human who is trapped in the body of a hawk. Although he is allowed to become human again but only for two hours at a time.”

“Why is that?”

Fluttershy asked. I looked at her and said,

“Well you see, all of us have the ability to morph or change our appearance. This power was given to us by Ax’s big brother Elfangor before he was killed by Visser One (Who at the time was Visser Three) but we can only be in morph for only for two hours at a time. If any one of us exceeds the two-hour time limit we become what are known as an nothlit which means a person trapped in morph. Tobias is an nothlit but he regained his power to morph thanks to a being known as the Ellimist. So yeah that the basics of why we can do what we do.”

After a few minutes spent in silence, Fluttershy then said,

“Well then if you don’t mind I would like for you to meet my friends.”

After thinking about it for a while we all agreed that we would like to meet her friends. Little did we know that things were just about to get more interesting.

Chapter 2:Meeting the Elements (Marco POV)

After we all went inside we had some time to sit and relax before the rest of Fluttershy’s friends arrived and during that time we talked about what our plan was considering we were stuck here for the rest of our lives and now that we no longer have to fight the Yeerks. It was during this time that Discord made a reappearance and said,

“Why hello there! what are you all talking about?”

I looked at him and told we were talking about what we are going to do since we are going to be spending the rest of our lives here. After thinking this through I then asked,

“Why did you save us anyway?”

He gives me an amused smirk and says,

“I would have been perfectly fine with leaving you all where you were, but Old Sunbutt had other ideas. For example, when Rachel supposedly died, she cast a spell to put her in suspended animation and mad a clone of her body for you to bury. The same was true for the Andalite here. When you three died she had me teleport all six of you into the void between worlds and told me to give you the run-down of what was about to happen.”

After a few seconds of silence, Rachel goes,

“So in other words, you could really care less about what happens to us?”

Discord smiles and says,

“Actually, now that you are here, I’m quite interested in what you six do and how you adjust to a new world. Just being here is sure to cause some lovely chaos!”

Before Rachel could start yelling at him, Fluttershy came in with five more ponies. One was a cyan colored Pegasus mare with a rainbow mane and tail, another was white unicorn mare with a purple mane and tail, and there was also a bubblegum pink mare with a darker pink mane and tail, after her came an orange mare with a blonde mane and tail tied in a ponytail and wearing brown cowboy hat, and finally a lavender unicorn mare with wings and pink streak in her mane and tail. Fluttershy then introduces the other five mares as her friends. The cyan one is Rainbow Dash, the unicorn is Rarity, the two “Earth ponies”, as they are called, are Pinkie Pie and Applejack, and the lavender “Alicorn”, as she is called, is Twilight Sparkle. Once we have that all settled out, Twilight asks,

“So what are you all?”

I respond with,

“Well Jake, Rachel, Cassie and I are humans, Tobias is a human trapped in the body of a red-tailed hawk, and Ax here is an Andalite who is from another world different from ours. Oh, and we have the ability to morph into other creatures for two hours at a time by “acquiring” their DNA and focusing on a mental picture of them. So that about sums us up. Oh and I like to call our little group “Animorphs” which is short for “Animal morpher” and we use to be soldiers in a secret war that was no longer secret after we blew up one of their underground bases. So, any more questions you would like to ask?”

Twilight just stared at me for a bit before shaking her head and saying,

“No. I’m good.”

Then my vision was suddenly filled with pink as Pinkie Pie starts asking questions at a rapid-fire pace and I can’t even understand what she is saying until Applejack grabs Pinkie Pie by the tail and says,

“Land sakes gurl! Y’all are gonna have to calm down before you scare him!”

Pinkie gives a sheepish smile and says,

“Sorry. Now My questions for you are, do you like parties, cakes, cupcakes; what is your favorite flavor of cake, and what is your favorite color?”

After thinking about it, we all give our respective answers to her questions. Afterward, Rarity came up and asked us why we were all dressed in such strange clothes. It was then that I glanced around and realized we were all in our morphing clothes (which consisted of way too much spandex in my opinion) and I simply told her that these were the only type of clothes we could morph meaning that instead of ending up shredded like regular clothes the spandex would be incorporated into the morph.

After some thought she said,

“Well darlings, do you think I could possibly make your “morph suits” more…uh…presentable?”

At that, I simply smiled and said,

“FINALLY!! Someone else agrees with me on the fact that we look more like a circus act rather than superheroes!”

At that, my friends all face palmed and Jake just gave me a look that said [are you serious?] and I just respond with my traditional smirk which just causes Jake to facepalm again. At this Rarity lets out a little giggle and Pinkie does this adorable giggle-snort and I thought to myself ‘Yes! I made two of them laugh! Two down four to go.’ After we got done with that we all decided to head into town so that we could meet the rest of our new neighbors. When we got into town we heard a high pitched scream that came from the forest. The source was revealed to be a small orange Pegasus filly and a light yellow Earth pony filly with a bow in her main. When they stopped in front of us the orange filly said,

“Rainbow! You have to come help us! We were trying to get our cutie marks in plant finding when a manticore jumped behind us Applebloom and I managed to escape and we thought that Sweetie Belle had made it as well but when we were about to come out of the Everfree we realized that she might still be somewhere in the forest.”

When she was done Jake went into ‘Leader Mode’ and told everyone to go wolf and begin looking for the lost filly. I concentrated, like I had so many times before and began to feel the familiar sensation of my bones shifting and cracking as always the process didn’t hurt but the ponies around us had various looks of disgust and horror because they could hear our bones shift and crack and rearrange themselves and as soon as we were done, Jake looked at the ponies and asked,

Rarity then lifted a small hat for winter and held up for us to get a good whiff of her scent. One we got the scent we ran into the forest to begin our hunt.

Chapter 3:Hero’s Return and a Party. (Jake’s POV)

Hello, my name is Jake and I’m currently in wolf morph trying to find a lost filly named Sweetie Belle. After we had all gotten her scent we immediately set off towards where she was. Along the way, we were all starting to get a little worried that we might be too late and when we got there we saw that Sweetie Belle was crouched behind a light green bubble with the manticore trying to break it. Without hesitation, I gave the order to attack and the manticore was suddenly bowled over by a gray wolf. After Marco, Rachel, and Tobias had the manticore distracted, Me, Ax, and Cassie walked up to Sweetie Belle and waited for her to notice us. When she did she was understandably frightened even more before I said,

When she looked around for the voice I waved my paw and said,

As soon as I mentioned Rarity’s name she immediately jumped on my back and hide as best she could from the manticore. While I did find the sight very adorable I was more focused on getting the filly home. Once she was secure I ordered everyone to fall back and Marco, Rachel, and Tobias all backed off and sprinted back towards Ponyville with the rest of us following. When we got back Sweetie Belle was still curled in a ball on my back and shaking from fear. As soon as Rarity saw Sweetie Belle, I saw her horn glow and felt the little filly leave my back. As soon as she saw her big sister the little filly started crying and saying she was sorry she went into the Everfree Forest. Instead of saying anything Rarity simply hugged her and told her that everything was going to be fine now that she was safe. While this was going down we decided to demorph and the sounds that emanated from us as we changed got the little filly’s attention apparently and she watched in what was probably a mixture disgust and fascination and the sight and sound of the six wolves she saw twist and mutate into four humans, a hawk, and an Andalite, once the process was done she looked at us and asks,

“Who are all of you and what are all of you?”

After filling her in on who and what we are she then leaped at me and gave me a hug before saying thanks for saving her. After that Pinkie decided to throw a ‘thank you for saving Sweetie Belle’ party and she said that once she got everything ready she would throw us our ‘Welcome to Ponyville/Equuis’ party. While we were waiting for the party to start Sweetie Belle introduced the orange Pegasus filly as Scootaloo and once that was done, we waited for the party to start by walking around Ponyville. While we were walking Sweetie Belle refused to let go of me and I was basically giving her a piggyback ride. Then Marco decided to say,

“Hey, Jake, Nice cape. Where can I get one?”

I smiled and said,

“Well, there are two capes laying on Applejack and Rainbow Dash, maybe if you ask nicely they’ll let you use their capes.”

Before Marco could say anything both Applebloom and Scootaloo said no and went back to laying on their respective guardian’s back. Marco gave them a look of fake hurt and said,

“Oh, how you wound me so! Rejecting me without giving me a chance!”

This got a laugh out of everyone and after pouting for few seconds Marco started laughing along with us. During this entire exchange, the rest of Ponyville was looking at us with a mixture of fear and curiosity. I think the fear part was because they saw us demorph and the curiosity is because Twilight and her friends are talking to us so freely. Eventually one of the towns ponies, a light gray unicorn filly, came up to us and just started following us while looking us over. I noticed that she kept glancing at Ax and Tobias the most and eventually looked at Ax and asked,

“Excuse me Mr. Alien, what are you? And who are you?”

Ax looked at me as if to ask for permission to answer and I gave him a nod after which his stalk eyes focused on the filly and said,

She smiled and said in a voice full of excitement,

“My name is Dinky Doo!”

Before any of us could react a mare whom I’m guessing is her mother quickly ran and grabbed her saying,

“I’m sorry for that! My daughter can be so excited sometimes! I hope she wasn’t bothering you in any way!”

Then Ax smiled and said,

The mare got a confused look and started looking around and said,

“Who said that? Show yourself!”

After she got into a protective stance Ax calmly said while pointing to himself,

After Ax said that, she gave him a confused look before saying,

“Wait, so you can talk with your mind?”

Ax gave her an unamused look and explained how Though-Speak worked. While the rest of us were listening Dinky somehow managed to wiggle from her mother’s grasp and climbed on Ax’s back and settled down. While the rest of were silently laughing at the fact that she managed to do what none of us or the Yeerks were able to do which was sneaking up on an Andalite. Eventually, Ax saw us and asked,

I answered,

“No Ax. But you might want to look at your back. You seem to have a passenger on board.”

With that, his stalk eyes look down his back and see Dinky resting on him and he asks us when did she get on we told him while he was explaining Thought-Speak to her mother. When he heard that he actually started laughing and said,

When Dinky’s mom saw this she actually giggled at the sight of the ‘big scary looking alien’ calmly accepting the fact that he is being used as a bed by a little filly. When she stopped she said,

“Anyway it’s nice to meet you all, my name is Ditzy Doo. But my friends call me Derpy Whooves or Derpy.”

I smile and say,

“Well then Mrs. Doo, it was a pleasure meeting you and your daughter. And again sorry if we gave you a bit of a fright. I know to you my friends and I may look intimidating, especially Ax considering I’ve seen him use his tail blade to cut through a steel door in a few swings and then later use that same tail to slice through a group of Controllers like a hot knife through butter.”

She looks at me and says,

“Wait, he has a tail blade?”

She looks at his tail and then says,

“Oh, so he does.”

Since Dinky was still sleeping on Ax, Ditzy Doo decided to walk with us for a bit. When we came up to what I assume was her house she walks over to Ax and manages to lift Dinky off without waking her and whispers a goodbye before leaving. Once that was done we all headed back to Twilight’s castle. Once we got to her castle, I noticed that Twilight and her friends were giving us a weird look. After deciding to ask about it later I open the door to the castle and Pinkie jumps out and yells,

“SURPRISE!!”

Which caused all of us to jump into a combat ready stance and Ax to whip his tail and press it against Pinkie’s throat. After we saw that it was only Pinkie we all relaxed and Ax moved his tail away while giving an apology to Pinkie for scaring her. Pinkie however still seemed to be in shock about having a blade against her throat and was still shaking like a leaf before Marco walked over to her and hugged her which seemed to get her to calm down before she returns the action. After she stopped shaking she looked at Marco and said thank you, before going over to Ax and giving him a hug and saying she was sorry for causing him to react like that, to which Ax said,

Before Pinkie could say anything I look at Ax and say,

“Don’t call me ‘Prince’.”

At that, the mood in the room actually improved as Pinkie giggled a bit at the exchange and told Ax that she accepts her apology. After that, she smiles and says,

“Now let’s get this party started!”

Once the party was in full swing we all started to mingle when I heard Twilight ask Ax how he ate without a mouth from my position on the wall, I almost laughed at the expression on her face when he said that he eats through his hooves. When I looked at Tobias I saw Fluttershy asking him all sorts of questions about what type of hawk he was. I also saw Marco and Pinkie talking and laughing about something. Then Cassie walked over and stands next to me and says,

“So fearless leader enjoying the party?”

I put my arm around her and said,

“Even better now that you’re here.”

With that, we both just watched as Rachel and Rainbow decided to have an arm/hoof-wrestling match. After the party when we asked where are we going to stay Twilight said that since she had tons of spare rooms available we could stay in those for now. As we were getting ready to head to bed the doors opened and a unicorn mare with light purple fur and light blue and white mane walked in and asked,

“Twilight why are the towns ponies saying that there are six weird creatures that can turn in wolfs and…”

She stopped talking as she realized that the creatures she was describing were in front of her and gave us a look of shock.
