Ponymon: Equestria Region

2. What? Scootaloo is Evolving!

Previous Chapter

Dash fought her way through the thick undergrowth. It's vines clung to her and occasionally she got trapped. The Apple Pie Acre gym was just through these woods. If only there wasn't so much grass to keep her from her destination. Gym Leader Applejack expected her!

A sensation rose from the saddlebag that carried the spare Ponybalks and Scootaloo. A small red light glowed faintly again and again. The saddlebag dropped to the floor. The Ponyball rolled out. It wasn't Svootaloo's, which meant it was empty. So why was it glowing?

Dash poked the little button. It was a used Ponyball! A Ponymon came out in a burst of smoke. "Trixie-Oz!" Sounded a voice. A Indigo unicorn appeared. She had all the defaults of Trixie the Magician Ponymon, except in a darker shade. The Ponymon was male, another change. Finally he had black hair and a black mustache. Dash consulted the Ponydex, confused.

"This is crazy! Who would ditch a Ponymo-"

"Trixie-Oz!" The Trixie-Oz had been hidden away as a corrupted Ponyball to attack these new peasants. Now she saw her chance and launched herself at Dash. "Oz!"

Dash pleaded for help. She was too far away to reach her Ponyball stash and call Scootaloo! But then she heard a voice.

"Sc-Sc-Scoota-GET YOUR HOOVES OFF MASTER!!"

The Ponymon was chucked into some nearby grass by something that barreled into her. All Dash saw was an orange and pink blur. Scoots! The Ponympn was hovering just off the ground and kicking with all her might. Dash was stunned but not enough to paralyze her ability to speak. "You got her,Scoots!!! Use Ripwheel!" Dash was overjoyed! She had a talking Ponymon!!! TALKING!!!!!!

Scootaloo grabbed her scooter and whacked Trixie-Oz upside the head with the hind wheel of the scooter. It ripped the skin of the Ponymon and the gash bled.  The Pomymon ran away. Dash could swear she saw a white unicorn run off with the Ponymon.

A faint glow began to engulf Scootaloo's body. "Dash! What is happening!?" Scootaloo swiveled about as if trying to see something unscoured by the glow.

A random voice said "what? Scootaloo is evolving!!" And that fired off joy at Dash. "You're evolving! It's ok, your becoming even better!!!"

And then white light blinded her.

When everything was over, a new Scoots sat before Dash. Her tail was styled like a scooter, with her tail styled like the body of a scooter. Her bangs had the handlebars of a scooter. "Scooterloo!" She said gleefully. "I'm a Scooterloo!"

Dash was impressed. It had only been a day! Already she had an evolved starter. But why now? Scooterloo had shown amazing skill for Elusive. A consult to the Ponydex!

Dash was impressed. She looked impressed. She sounded impressed as she spoke. "Well, Scooterloo, looks like you are all scooters and no Crusader. For now anyways."

Scooterloo grinned with a gleam in her eye and twitched her tail. "So when are we gonna fight Applejack?"

"The gym is miles awa- well, well." The gym was a barn with a Pinkie Pie face painted on the side. Applejack stood out front waiting for a worthy opponent. She tossed a Ponyball up and down like a bouncy ball idly in her hoof. She noticed Dash quickly. "Evenin ma'am. Got any time for some old fashioned Ponyfightin'?"

Dash turned her cap backwards on her head, smirking. Scootaloo snorted and dragged her hood through the dirt like a bull. "As if we could resist!" She yelled tauntingly.

Applejack was stunned. "Did that Celestia-be-hanged Ponymon just,ah dun know, TALK!?" Applejack screamed.

"Yes she did. How about that fight now? Today would be nice." Dash teased her opponent.

Applejack threw out her Ponymon counterpart. "Go AJ!" She yelled.

"Scooterloo, attack using Oil Spill!!!"

Scooterloo launched a spitball. It splatter onto the ground as oil and the Applejack fell over on her side.

Applejack yelled out "Applebuck!" To which the Ponymon kicked Scooterloo in her face.

"That's cheating! Applebuck isn't in the moves list!!!" Dash yelled, taking a quick look at her Ponydex.

"Ah know. Ain't it great? Pie Bite!" The Ponymon Appkejack ran forward at the demand and bit Scooterloo on the shoulder, taking a small chunk out of the filly.

"Scooterloo, Ripwheel!"

Scooterloo did the move and the Applejack fell fainted.

"Gah! My ticket to winning with undetected cheatin!" Applejack hollered. She threw a medal at Dash. "Ya'll mighta won now, but I'll be waiting at the next gym for ya!!!" And the trainer was gone. The orchard was empty.

Dash walked off with her Scooterloo. Who knew what other things awaited beyond?
