The New Power Ponies
Chapter 5: A new evil rises
Previous ChapterNext ChapterMeanwhile in a dark hideout lies an evil changeling with a lust for greater power. She was filled with greed and wanted to take over Maretropolis with her henchmen and become the prime minister.
" If I could take over this wretched place I would have plenty of respect from everypony else and nopony will even disrespect me. All slaves will work every day until they die, but those who try to rebel will be punished. If only the streets weren't so full of puny heroes. " It wasn't long until one of her henchmen came back to alarm her about the new heroes.
" Supreme Queen Shape shifter. There has been reports of new heroes. "
" More idiots to handle. For years I wanted to rule, but no. Every time I defeat a new hero, more keep rising and it makes me want to just destroy Maretropolis." Queen Shape Shifter comes up with an evil plot to destroy The New Power Ponies.
Meanwhile the team enjoys a nice bite at a local coffee shop. Spike talks about some scenarios on protecting the city.
" Ok everypony. First things first. We need to focus on our enemy and if there is a hostage, we save them first, then we fight the bad guys. Got it? "
" Feels like to me, it's like a walk in the park. " Said Rainbow Lightning.
" I bet I can finish this job without a sweat. " Said Applejack Hammer.
" I just hope they don't keep animals hostage. " Said Fluttercry.
" Maybe we can have fun fighting crime. " Said Pinkie Party Animal.
" Oh yeah. I bet my irresistible charm will make stallions just give up. " Said Glarity.
" Come on Everypony. We need to work together. " Said Twilight Sparkler. Suddenly a big bang comes from the bank. Some ponies then start running. " Ok everypony. Now is your chance to fight crime for real. " Said Spike.
" But what about you? " Said Twilight Sparkler.
" I'm not changing into The Dragon Demigod unless it is an " emergency ". "
" All right then lets roll. "
" Just follow my instructions and it will be ok. "
As the ponies run their stopped by Rainbow Lightning.
" Going somewhere? Not on my watch. " She surrounds the thieves and takes their loot back to the bank. Suddenly a purse is snatched by another criminal. As soon as he took off Glarity stares at him with beautiful eyes. He drops the purse in awe, then she gives it back to the old lady. Pinkie Party Animal puts a parachute on him and shoots him out of her party cannon. He lands safely in jail. Fluttercry approaches a animal smuggler and kindly asks him to put the animals back, but he just runs off. Spike looks a Fluttercry with an unsatisfied look on his face, then Twilight Sparkler stops the smuggler with her magic.
The first day was a bit of a struggle, but then the next day things were a bit harder. Then the next day after that, it kept getting harder. Sooner or later, all but Spike crash themselves on whatever piece of furniture due to tiredness. " I know it's hard fighting crime, but with great power, comes great responsibility. " Said Spike.
" Yeah right! Also comes with great waste of energy. " Said Rainbow Lightning.
" All of you get some rest, except Fluttercry. "
" But I don't feel like fighting crime. I just keep chickening out. " Said Fluttercry.
" That's why I am going to bring you along. It's best to try harder. "
Out on the streets of Maretropolis, Spike and Fluttercry wait for a crime to happen. Suddenly a stallion steals candy from a foal, then the little foal throws a tantrum. Fluttercry gasps at the sight of a rude thing and approaches the meanie with a scowl on her face.
" Give her lollipop back before things get worst! "
" Or what, you're going to call the wahbulance? " Fluttercry changes her expression to a little nervous with some tears and backs up. Spike then has an idea and shouts from across the street.
" Hey you! I bet you can't steal more things from a foal! " The Stallion takes the foals teddy bear and throws it in the street, it then makes the foal cry even harder. This makes Fluttercry get really mad and screams very loud with her supersonic chords of steel. After her scream, the stallion falls down to his knees and begs. " Whatever you do, please don't scream at me like that again! I don't wanna be hurt like this!"
" Then give the foal her stuff back. "
" Here take it. I don't want to jail. Please have mercy. " He runs off scared. Fluttercry gives the foal her bear and throws the lollipop away since it got dirty, instead she gives it a nice warm hold and settles it down. She puts the foal back in her carriage and lays the blanket back on. She looks at the mother of it and see's her just reading a book and listening to music. Fluttercry walks back to Spike.
" Well, how did I do? "
" You did amazing with your power. You stood up and fought back. " Said Spike.
" Thank you. It's just I have some anger issues when I see innocent foals and fillies being bullied. "
" Well perhaps we can use that image to get you to fight crime like a real hero. "
" I guess that does work. " Spike smiles and they go back to their hideout where the rest of the gang just hangs around either gaming or just reading a book instead. ( Or something like that ) Little they know they were in for a surprise......
