After I defeated Dr. Neo Cortex again, the doctor, Uka Uka, N. Tropy, and the Time Twister got sucked into a portal as the evil mask cried out "No! It cannot be! Not a prisoner of time again! AAUGGH!!!!" Fortunately for the heroes, we managed to escape back home. It was winter in Wumpa Island, as a fire sparked into logs of my chimney. "The Time Twister Machine could not hold itself together. We were lucky to escape," Aku Aku announced to us. Meanwhile, Cortex and N. Tropy, now as infants, are fighting over, pulling, and holding on to Uka Uka each of their sides. "Give me the mask! When should I take over the world? Come on!" Cortex whined. Uka Uka was groaning over the fight, as he could not do anything about it. "It is difficult to say what has happened to our enemies," Aku Aku said, voice over. "But I doubt we will see them for a loooonggg time" So it's unknown how the villains got back to normal, but that's for another story. Present: 2002 in Equestria, set before Tirek's Revenge. Toby Mason, Nyx, Joshua, Mike, Colin Fraser, Nathan, Heaven, Conner, Timmy, and the rest of their human friends along with the Mane 6, Spike, the fillies, and the CMC were having a picnic together at the Ponyville Park. "Guys, I'm starting to feel something strange," Toby said. "What makes you say that?" Nyx asked. "Toby must have been shaken up after we met each other in a crazy way," Heaven responded. "Not that," Toby replied. "You feel sorry after you turned us into your own kind?" Sweetie Belle asked. "No, big sister," Toby replied again. "The way we lost our human parents but got them back after you saved us by granting your wish?" Joshua said. "Not exactly," Toby answered. "I'm getting this weird vibration that I sense something animal but it's unlike here in our new home." "What is it?" Pinkie Pie asked. "I don't know, Auntie Pinkie," Toby said. "But it has something to do with that!" He pointed to a weird round object nearby the trees. "What's that?" Heaven asked, as everyone took a look at it. "Possibly a fruit," Conner said, as he picked it up. "But what type?" Applejack asked. "We don't know, Mom," Mike responded. Suddenly a portal emerged out of it, sucking the children of Harmony into the portal. "AAAAHHH! MOOOOMMA! MOMMMY! DAAADDY!" the kids screamed as they were sucked inside and the portal closed. The Elements of Harmony gave each other shocked looks, along with the human parents, and the young ones. This caused them to scream so loud. "Dear god, Dear god!" Ashley cried. "Where did my baby go?!?" "Possibly on another dimension!" Twilight Sparkle replied. "We must go to our castle and read the books to find out where they are!" Spike cried. "Follow me!" The Mane 6, The CMC, the fillies, and the human adults followed the baby dragon to their former home. "Stay safe, Toby," Fluttershy and Ashley whispered sadly. "You too, kids," everyone else whispered sadly too as they ran to the castle. Author's Note Well, here's the first chapter of the story. I hope you guys might like it, because it has our favorite OC children in it. It will be very cool for those guys to meet our favorite marsupial! Any ideas? Leave them in the comments section of the story or on my user page. See you in the next chapter. Chapter 2: Cortex's New PlanSomewhere in space, there was a space station having a bad guy meeting. Inside the space station, six occupants were in it. "Imbeciles! Fools! Nincompoops!" said Uka Uka. "Can't you idiots do anything right?" What was shown next was Dingodile, N. Gin, Tiny Tiger, N. Tropy, and of course, Dr. Neo Cortex. They were all depressed of not only of their failures to take over the world, but their own boss was shouting at them. "According to this," Uka Uka said, as he presented a line graph going barely up and sharply falling low. "Your track record of spending evil is pathetic!" "Uka Uka, it's not our fault!" Cortex protested. "That retched bandicoot is to blame!" Then a hologram of Crash Bandicoot was shown as Tiny Tiger grabs to eat it, only for it to disappear. "I will not let anything stand in the way of evil," Uka Uka replied. "Especially not a brainless orange marsupial. Crash must be eliminated!" "Uh, Uka Uka," N. Gin spoke up. "Need I remind you that Crash always finds a way to defeat us? Maybe he's just too good for us!" Uka Uka then responds "Enough excuses! You five idiots need to come up with one big plan! OR ELSE!" Cortex mumbles "How did I ever get into these situations?" "There must be something we can come up with," N. Tropy said. Then he turns to Cortex. "Say, Doctor, haven't you have deprieving with some kind of secret weapon at the lab? "I don't know what you're talking about N. Tropy," Cortex replies. N. Gin then says "Dr. Cortex. I think he's referring to the super secret weapon you've been working on day and night since the last time Crash defeated you." Cortex tries to give him signals to keep him quiet, but doesn't work. "Enough bickering! Do we have a plan?!?" The evil mask shouted. "Well, my scientific endeavors was able to create a genetic super weapon of unbelievable strength now. But the power source is the final hidden ingredient." Cortex explained. "Elemental. Elementals. Yes. The Elementals." Uka Uka said. "Yes," the doctor replied. "The Elementals. That's it. We could release their destructive power to create and bring my secret weapon to life. We could have the power to crush mountains! Demolish entire cities!" Uka Uka then finished "And then wipe Crash Bandicoot of the face of the Earth forever!" "Get ready to face my wrath, Crash Bandicoot!" Cortex stated. "MUAWHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" Author's Note Wow! The doctor's back with a new bad plan! The fourth chapter is when Crash Bandicoot, Aku Aku, Coco Bandicoot, and Pura find out what's happening and they meet the children of harmony. Later the Mane 6, their friends, and adult parents find them in the warp room. But for the next chapter will include James Mason and the MLP villains. They will team up with Cortex. You'll find out next time! See ya! Chapter 4: What's The Big IdeaIt was a warm sunny day at Wumpa Island. Coco Bandicoot was riding on her rocket sled at the beach while I was holding on to a handrail behind her. "Come on, Crash!" Coco cheered. "Yeah, Crash. You're doing great!" At the beach, Pura was making a sandcastle while Aku Aku sat on a chair to relax. It was going well until a portal opened. Out came the children of harmony. Aku Aku and Pura looked at each other as they took a step forward the kids. This caused Toby to whimper sadly. "P-p-please d-d-don't hurt us," he cried. "Yea-a-h, we don't taste ve-e-ery well," Joshua said. Again Aku Aku and Pura looked at each other again and back to each other. "It's OK. We won't hurt you at all, young ones," the mask replied. The kids calmed down and became calm after not being injured by them. But then an explosion was heard. "What's happening?" Aku Aku asked. Everyone took a look at the volcano that was burning. "No," Aku Aku exclaimed. "This cannot be." Then the gang took a look at the stormy clouds going on their way. "Oh, no." the mask said. The dark clouds covered the sun as they turned the sky dark. Coco eventually took notice of this. "What's going on?" the female bandicoot cried. "Oh, no. Crash, look out!" But it was too late as the wave knocked out me and my sister out of the ocean. Luckily everyone survived it as Aku Aku pulled himself out of the sand. "Is everyone all right?" he asked everyone. "Yep," everyone but me and Pura replied. Suddenly another portal emerged and out came the Mane 6, the fillies, adult parents, and the CMC. "TOBY!" Ashley cried out. "MOMMY!" Toby replied happily. The children of harmony hugged their parents, their friends, and their Equestria family. "What is that?" Rainbow Dash shouted, pointing at the erupting volcano and the stormy clouds. "A disaster," Aku Aku answered. "It seems that my evil twin brother, Uka Uka, is up to his no good tricks again. I must find out what's he up to." He turned to the humans and ponies. "All of you must follow Crash Bandicoot and Coco here into his house for safety. I'll meet up with all of you later." He explained as he warped somewhere else. "Come on, everybody," Coco called out. "Follow me and Crash to our house." She then ran to the house along with me. "OK." the heroes replied as they went to the house with us. However, no one noticed that an evil spirit picked up a locket and disappeared. Author's Note I know they introduce each other to their selves, but they will do that after Aku Aku returns to them. Anyway, about the evil spirit picking up the locket, can you guess who it is? Leave your answers in the comments section! This is Crash Bandicoot, out! Chapter 5: The Problems/The IntroductionsIn space, there is a flying abandoned temple that Uka Uka is on now. Then Aku Aku appears. "Hello, my twin brother," Uka Uka said. "You have gotten to my attention, Uka Uka." said Aku Aku. "What kind of diabolical scheme do you and Dr. Cortex planned this time?" "No scheme, just a group of villains dropping by for a visit." Uka Uka replied. Aku Aku looked around as he saw other masks appearing next to Uka Uka. Not only that, but other villains that are unfamiliar to him also appeared. "No, not the Elementals!" Aku Aku cried. "And who are those?" "Just some new recruits we hired for help," Uka Uka replied. "Uka Uka, why did you release them?" Aku Aku asked. "Don't you know what happened the last time they were free?" "So they were responsible for a few earthquakes, floods and ice ages a few centuries back," Uka Uka said. "This is the first part of my three-step plan to take over the world." "The Elementals are far too dangerous to be released, and this could spell trouble for all of us!" Aku Aku exclaimed. "And what do you mean, "three-step plan"? Py-Ro laughs evilly. "On the contrary, Aku Aku," he said. "It only spells for the planet you care so much about. Also, this doesn't corern you heroes. Just us villains. Destroy him!" The Elementals and the MLP villains used their magic to get rid of Aku Aku, but he dodges the attack. "You won't get away with this!" he cried. Uka Uka laughs mischievously and says "Who is going to stop us?" Meanwhile, in my house, the gang was drying off and relaxing. Then they see Aku Aku enter the house. "Crash, Coco, everyone," the mask announced. "It is just as I feared. Uka Uka and Dr. Cortex have released a group of destructive masks called the Elementals." "Who are those?" Nyx asked. "You know where you swim at the beach, there's water in it?" Aku Aku explained. "Yeah, why?" Toby asked. "One of the masks are important to that ecosystem." the flying mask replied. "And when you have warmth, the fire mask is in charge of that. Also, the windy chills you feel have belonged to the wind mask. Let's not forget the earth mask, that makes hard and dense surfaces that seem indestructible. Now that they are free, they will cause many destructions to our worlds. And now, they must be stopped before they will destroy the earth and all of it's inhabitants!" Everyone gasped in shock. "How we are going to do that?" asked Joshua. "The only way to stop the Elemental's destructive nature is to imprison them with the use of ancient crystals," the mask explained. "Each Elemental can be returned back to their hibernation with a total of five crystals. We must act quickly. Coco, what is the status of the new system you've been working on? "It's almost finished," the female bandicoot replied. "A few little more adjusting and we'll be ready to go." "Well done, Coco." Aku Aku cheered. "This gives us the chance to use it. We must hurry." We all went to Coco's new lab. Inside was a VR Hub System, a time traveling machine, a wormhole generator, and so much more. Me and the gang stared at awe at Coco's progress while she made a few finishing touches. "OK. It's ready to go." she announced. "What about us? How can we help?" The Mane 6, the CMC, the fillies, and the children of harmony asked. "I have an invention that can work." Coco replied. She opened a warp room that was similar to the VR Hub System, but a little larger. "It can warp you here and your home anytime you like," Coco announced. The MLP cast cheered at this moment. They get to go home and visit this place more often. "Anyway, let's get back to business." Aku Aku said to everyone. "There are some things all of you must know. Tiny Tiger is one huge animal and can crush things. Do not approach him closely. Dingodile is a one crazy mammal. Do not let him burn you. N. Tropy is the master of time, so avoid being blasted by him. N. Gin makes mechanical robots, and you all must attack his weak points. Dr. Cortex is the creator of Crash, so he'll be able to make a quick defeat on him." "OK!" the gang saluted. "I think it's time we got some help with us along the way," the mask said to me. I pointed to myself as if to say "Me?" and my protector nods. Author's Note That's some exciting news! Now since the game has to be completed with 25 crystals, 30 relics, 46 gems, and 5 bosses, I will make some changes. The amount of crystals and with gems with doubled along with the bosses, but the relics will be cut out. And some MLP villains the Mane 6 encountered before will return as well. Time to get your game on! Chapter 6: Meeting the Old and New Nemesis/Meeting Ro-Ko and Nightmare MoonAfter everyone set their missions and duties, they got a message in the large TV screen. Out came a vortex of Cortex. "Crash Bandicoot, my old nemesis," he spoke up. "How funny. Still gathering crystals? Well, this time it will be harder for you to get them. And I've seen you brought some friends to help with it. Now Crash, and whoever goes by the name of Toby Mason, could you two come out here?" Toby shivered in fear at the mad genius mentioning his name without introducing him first, so the gang cuddled up to him in one big hug. "If you want him, then you must speak with us!" Joshua protested to the doctor. "Th-h-hanks, guys," Toby whimpered. "Bravo!" Dr. Cortex said. "I've never seen much bravery defending your friends so much! Now for the kid known as Toby Mason, meet my new assistant, James Mason." His head disappeared and out came James's head as he laughed evilly. "Daddy?!?" Toby cried. "That's right, you sorry excuse for a son," James replied. "I have decided to take vengeance on not only you, but your family and friends as well. Even your soft side can't change me!" "Di-id Da-a-addy just ca-all me a s-sorry ex-xcuse for a son?" Toby spoke, shaking with sobs. Everyone got closer to Toby as they gave James an angry glare. "How dare you speak to our son like that, James!" Ashley shouted angrily. "Oh, and you are the second person in my list that I would like to get rid of," James replied with an evil grin. "James!" Aku Aku said. "Don't you know that you must never work for Cortex? Good always triumph over evil!" "Ah, I see you are that flying driftwood my boss told me about," James exclaimed. "Well, too bad, because you won't be protecting your chicken nuggets more than you could now." We all gasped at the insult, especially Coco Bandicoot. "You take that back, you jerk!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "These buddies don't need to be insulted!" "I guess I'll have to take it up a notch," snapped James. "Uka Uka, come here." His head was gone and Uka Uka came in. "Grr! You imbeciles have been foiling our plans for times!" Uka Uka yelled. "This time, you won't screw it up! And to that, we will make your journey harder than ever!" "Oh, really?" Spike asked. "You and what army?" Uka Uka disappeared and came a hologram of a monster. "This is the creature that keeps sabotaging your master plans? Ha! You got to be kidding me. I'll exterminate all of them, one by one." Crunch spoke up. "Who are you?" Nyx asked. The hologram of Crunch was gone and was replaced by Cortex's. "My apologies, everyone," he announced. "That was my super secret weapon, Crunch. He'll make sure nothing gets in our way of evil." "What about the Elementals?" Aku Aku asked. "You'll see them during when you warp into a level," Cortex replied. "Now this is what I expected. A real bandicoot war. And that's not all. A father and son duel is included as well. Plus, we hired new recruits to assist us. Oh well, everyone makes mistakes. Tata, for now." As he disappeared, everyone gave each other shocked looks. Their own enemies teaming up with other villains? This was not good. "Come on, some of us must get to Arctic Antics while another group goes to Everfree Exhaustion." Aku Aku said. "Any volunteers?" Applejack, Nathan, Apple Bloom, and Mike raised their hands for Everfree Exhaustion while me, Toby, Joshua, and Heaven raised their hands for Arctic Antics. "Okay," Aku Aku explained. "Each of you must go to a level, stand on top of the number, wait for the elevator to send you there, collect the crystals and the gems in the level, and get back here safely. OK?" "Alright!" everyone saluted. Before they went, the pony and human adults hugged their children. "Be safe for Momma and Ashley," Fluttershy whispered. "I will," Toby responded with pride. "Careful out there, my son," Twilight said. "I understand," Joshua replied. "Come on, fellows!" Applejack said to her sister, nephew, and son. "Let's get those crystals in our place!" "OK!" Apple Bloom, Mike, and Nathan replied. "I will also come with you to protect you," Aku Aku said to the two groups. The others who stayed behind wished them luck. The two groups disappeared in an orb. As they were falling to the level, Ro-Ko, the Earth Elemental, came in front of our heroes. "What are you looking at, fuzz heads?" he spoke. "I'm Ro-Ko, the Earth Elemental. Uka Uka and Dr. Cortex woke me from my captive slumber and now, I'm free to pulverize whoever gets in my way. Oh ho, don't even think about collecting all those crystals. That's right. I'm going to bury all of you alive. Meet my companion, Nightmare Moon." His head was gone as Nightmare Moon appeared. "So, you seem to be troubling us for years now, eh?" she said. "It is I, Nightmare Moon! A shadow pony and a kid's father had given me my magic back. Stay out of my way making the night last forever. Otherwise, I will turn your precious dreams into horrible nightmares from now on. Don't let the bedbugs bite!" And just like that, she was gone. Author's Note Sorry about this guys. I know I said that I will include Arctic Antics and Everfree Exhaustion in this chapter, but as that last word implies, I'm starting to get tired of writing more than two chapters a day. I'll write more in the next day. Get well soon! Chapter 7: Arctic Antics/Everfree ExhaustionThe first group arrived to Arctic Antics in a flash. "Boy," Toby said, shivering. "I-it's su-u-ure col-ld in this place he-ere." "I agree," Joshua complied, shaking. "Sa-ay, how com-me Cra-a-ash is not shi-ivering?" "He has a body made a fur," Heaven explained. "So let's get those crystals and gems!" We all saw crates up ahead. This caused me to spin in them. Then the gang saw some seals nearby. Toby wanted to pet them, but a voice shouted. "Stop!" Joshua called. "But why won't you let me pet them?" Toby asked. "They are bad seals, Toby. If you touch them, then you might die." Heaven explained. After that was taken care of, I spun them and more crates. Also he jumped on them. Finally, he spun an Aku Aku crate which caused the mask to float out of it. "Aku Aku?" Joshua asked. "What are you doing here?" "Like I said, it's my duty to protect you all." The mask answered. Since they freed our friend, the group had protection from almost anything that might harm us. We jumped through gaps, walked through bridges, broke more crates, and damaged the penguins. What we spun that was the most common crate was the checkpoint crate. If we died, then we'll be sent back there to the last checkpoint we were on. Wumpa fruits were collected by us also. When we collected 100 of them, we get an extra life. Speaking of life, we avoided the nitro crates. We will have to deal with them later. We managed to skate on thick ice. By seeing Outline boxes, we spun Switch crates to activate them. Spinning into a Crash and gang crate will also give us an extra life. For me, I bounced on the bouncy crates that give me Wumpa fruits every time I stomp on them. I also broke the locked crates that require me to body slam into them. There was a surprise that there was another Aku Aku crate in front of us. "Haven't we already broke your crate already?" asked Toby. "Yes. But there are more crates of mine that need to be broken." the mask replied. "Also, if you call me a third time, then I will give invincibility for 10 seconds. You can break anything and not get harmed. There is one now!" I spun the crate and Aku Aku faces got on the group. We went fast as we could to break all the crates that stood between us and the enemies. They saw two platforms up ahead. One for the bonus round and the other for the death route. "You kids take the bonus round while me and Crash take the death route!" Aku Aku announced. As the children went to the bonus round, they managed to break some crates, gained extra lives, jumped and avoided the TNT crates that stood between them. Meanwhile me and Aku Aku avoided the many hazards that threatened to exterminate them. I got the blue gem and warped back to the children. "Got the crystal?" Aku Aku asked. "You betcha!" Joshua replied happily, holding the crystal. "Say, what does that do?" Toby said as he touched the Nitro Switch crate. Suddenly, all nitro crates exploded, leaving a clear gem. The young child gathered the gem. "Yes!" Heaven cheered. "Our first crystal and two gems!" "Look! A target!" Joshua said, pointing to a target containing random prizes. "Let's get on." Heaven said, as they carried The first group headed to the elevator that warped them back to Coco's VR Hub system. While no one was looking, Joshua pulled out some sunglasses and put them on. He also held a boombox as the music played and he hooted in celebration. As the music ended, Joshua went back to the gang. Now let's get focused on the western gang. "Ma'h brain has never been that dizza'h since my sister was born!" Nathan complied as they arrived to Everfree Exhaustion. "Come on, guys," called Mike. "Let's find that crystal and gems before those bad guys get them!" The western gang saw a hill up ahead. They went to climb it for minutes. But on the middle of the hill, they felt an earthquake beneath their bodies. Suddenly, one opened below Apple Bloom. She began to fall. "AAAHH!" she screamed. In the nick of time, Nathan managed to fly fast and save his filly friend from falling to her death. "You saved me, Nathan!" Apple Bloom cried as she hugged Nathan. "What do you mean? You never leave a friend behind." he replied. Everyone blushed happily after not only the save the bat-boy made, but the saying that is heartwarming. "Alright, fellows," Applejack interrupted. "Let's get those varmints into-- what in tarnation?!?" Platforms appeared in from of them along with crates to break and avoid. "Alright, peoples and ponies," Mike said. "Let's get smashing and crashing!" The second group jumped above the platforms as they avoided the nitro crates and broke the regular crates. What was surprising to them was that there was an Aku Aku crate. They suddenly broke the crate and out came the flying mask. "Say, weren't you back at the warp room?" Apple Bloom asked Aku Aku. "Yes, but my sole purpose is to protect you all," the mask answered. "Good," Applejack answered. "Now let's get those crystals and gems!" As our heroes ventured further, they saw a Timberwolf and two Diamond Dogs in front of them. They dodged their enemies quickly but then saw TNT crates behind them. The mares distracted the enemies by pushing them closer to the other way while the humans jumped on the TNT crates and ran off together. This caused not only the enemies to be defeated, but it gave them an extra amount of 3 lives. Once that was settled, there was another two platforms. One for the bonus round and the other for a death route. "You two take that bonus round platform while me and Applejack go to the death route!" Mike called out. For the bonus round, it seemed a lot like the one in Arctic Antics but more larger and had more grass. In the death route, there were nitro crates, more Timberwolves, and sliding Diamond Dogs. To add the danger of that, deep chasms were included. As Apple Bloom destroyed the nearby crates, Nathan flew her over the nitro crates for safety. After that was succeeded, things were going antsy for Applejack and Mike. The human child had to ride his mother's back as the country mare jumped over great distances. While jumping, she broke many crates up ahead that are mid-air. She and the kid got the blue gem afterwards. As for the other two, Nathan broke the last two original crates while Apple Bloom kicked the Nitro Switch Crate that exploded the nitro crates that are left. They came upon on top of the hill as Applejack and Nathan got there. "We got the crystal and gem!" the filly and child exclaimed as they shown their proof. "And we got the blue gem!" the mare and other kid replied as they presented the blue gem. After that was taken care of, they all went to the elevator. They came back to the warp room. "So, how did it go?" Twilight asked the two groups. "Oh, it was always the same," Aku Aku responded. "This time they not only helped us, but we assisted them as well" Everyone cheered at that answer. "Oh my Celestia!" Rarity cried. "It's past night time! Time to put you children into bed." "Okay, Mommy." Conner said. "You too, kids." the rest of the Mane 6 and human adults announced. Every child went to their beds as their parents tucked them in their beds. They went to theirs as well. As for me, Coco, and Aku Aku, I went to sleep in the floor like always. Coco went to her room and slept on her bed. Aku Aku went to a secret room and laid asleep as well. It was a long day ahead for them. Author's Note Well, our heroes collected their first two crystals and four gems altogether. The next level chapter will be a chill and flight for them. This is Crash Bandicoot, signing off. Chapter 8: Tornado Alley/Maximum Overfly/Toby's StoryIt was a bright sunny day as everyone woke up from their slumber. "How did everyone sleep?" Aku Aku asked. "It was fine." the rest of the gang replied. "Alright, let's get another crystal and gem in each of our universes." Twilight spoke up. Coco set a course for Tornado Alley and Maximum Overfly. Fluttershy, me, Nathan, and Conner decided to go to Tornado Alley while Rainbow Dash, Scootaloo, Joshua, and Nyx settled going on to Maximum Overfly. The two groups went to the elevator like the last time, and they went to the level. The first group arrived to Tornado Alley by flying a plane that was being held by a blimp. The three occupants were the bandicoot and the two kids. The flying Pegasus decided to fly with them. "Crash! Conner! Nathan! Fluttershy!" Coco called voice over in the plane's speakers. "The generators! Shoot them down. Looks like Neo's using them to make a tornado." As the four destroyed some generators, they managed to break some crates. But what seemed unfortunate to them was that they saw not only Cortex's lab assistants were flying on planes to stop them, but there were some changelings around. "What?!?" Fluttershy cried. "Didn't we got rid of those already?" "Looks like Cortex hired a villain who wants to take revenge on us after you guys saved Toby from their queen." Conner answered sadly. "Well, we won't let them get into our way again," replied Nathan. "Let's get those varmints packing!" I fired bullets at the generators while he spun around Cortex's lab assistants and changelings to avoid being hit. Fluttershy also avoided the attacks and went closer to the kids to protect them. By finishing off the generators and crates and avoiding all the obstacles that can harm them, they not only got a crystal, but also collected a gem. The group went back to the warp room and they celebrated the party Pinkie Pie made. As that happened, the second group made it to Maximum Overfly. As they went to the center of the sky, they saw more Lab Assistants and Changelings holding them for defense. "Aren't those changelings already gone?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Cortex has hired more allies of his to take us out." Nyx replied. "Let's get the crystal and gem before they do!" Scootaloo cried. Nyx and Joshua used their magic to shoot down the lab assistants and nearby crates while Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo fought the Changeling drones. It was a tag team battle that seemed hard for them, but they managed to accomplish their goal. Rainbow managed to grab the crystal while Joshua held the gem in pride as they vanished. They also managed to get back to the Warp Room. After celebrating the party, the business was done and dealt with. "So anyway, why is Uka Uka so mean?" Toby asked. "He is an evil mask, child," Aku Aku answered. "Uka Uka was my evil twin brother that wanted to take over our world. Long ago, I locked him into a temple to keep the world safe. He got free, so we stopped him again after using the Time Twister Machine to get some crystals and gems. So now, we must stop him again." "Man, not again," Joshua muttered. "Something wrong?" Coco asked. "Oh, it's just that we are still sad after the loss of my mother years ago," Toby said. "Would you like to talk about it?" Coco asked again. "OK. It would be heartbreaking." Timmy said. "When I was four years old, my Mommy suddenly died in a car crash. Daddy started being mean me afterwards, so one night when I was six, I wished that I had a new home and a family that will never be mean to me. Momma suddenly found me, so she fed me, took care of me, looked after me, and then I met her friends Auntie Pinkie, Auntie Twilight, Auntie Applejack, Auntie Rainbow, Auntie Rarity, and Uncle Spike. After that, I came to Canterlot Castle to meet Auntie Celestia and Auntie Luna. We had a huge party to cheer myself up after I was feeling down. I had fun, and went crusading with my big sisters Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle. When we to school, I met Diamond Tiara, and she began to be mean to me by taking away my glasses and holding them up. My big sisters were about to stop them until Silver Spoon gave them back to me. After that was settled, she told me that I don't belong in Ponyville since I'm not like them. I ran away to the Everfree Forest after having a bad dream. A timberwolf was about to eat me until Auntie Rainbow saved me. She and the others went into my nightmare to find out why I ran away. Throughout some comfort, I felt better. I had learned more stuff about my family. I did a talent show to say goodbye to Mommy. It was heartwarming. I had many adventures with not only my big sisters, but with my aunties. But one day, there was a sudden heart burst in Canterlot Castle. Auntie Celestia found the memories of my Daddy and when we came into them, he was the one who killed Mommy. We all stood up to him but Mommy came as an angel to my comfort. I decided to get Uncle Discord to send him home. I showed up in Ponyville and found out it's my new home. The end." Wewere in tears of joy as we blew our noses in tissues. Even I seemed to have emotions of my own. "I'm sorry that had to happen to you," Aku Aku spoke up. "That's OK, Aku Aku." the child replied. "I got her back by a wish, and now I got a bigger family along with yours." "Awwww..." everyone cooed. "Excuse me, I don't mean to interrupt," Discord replied. "But how was Crash created?" "That's for another story," the mask said. "For now, let's find more crystals and gems." "Alright!" everyone cheered. Author's Note Well, it seems now the story has gotten deeper. But how will the gang react to Crash's backstory? Find out next time on "Toby Mason and the Bandicoot"! Chapter 9: Bamboozled/Paralyzed/The Villain MeetingThe gang had felt relaxed as they went back to their warp room. Me, Toby, Conner, Spike, and Timmy went to Bamboozled while Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Twilight, Applejack, and Discord got sent to Paralyzed. As they were falling down, Ro-Ko came back. "You want a piece of me, bandicoot, horses, and chimps?" he spoke. "Huh? Huh? Do ya? Wusses!" He was gone as Nightmare Moon's head came. "Stay away from my nighttime!" she demanded as she was gone. Me and kids arrived to Bamboozled in a ball. "How can we move?" Conner asked. "Pushing it, of course!" Spike replied, as he took a step forward the ball to cause to move. "That's a great idea, Uncle Spike," Toby said. "Let's get rolling." We moved the ball forward as they collected wumpa fruits and crashed into crates. We manged to get on top of an wooden-like elevator. There was a huge slide that we were on. "Everybody, hold on!" Timmy shouted, as they all slid. It was exciting for us to ride a huge slide as we smashed more crates and collected more Wumpa Fruits on the way. While getting closer to our goal, we saw some nitro crates. "Don't smash those," Spike spoke. "Or we'll be destroyed." Werolled away from the nitro crates and smashed more crates than ever. We even got more lives by not only getting enough Wumpa fruits, but by smashing some life crates. We crossed a bridge as we got the crystal. Spike moved forward to cause the ball to smash into the nitro crate switch causing every nitro crate to explode. A gem appeared as I moved forward to get it. "Yes! We got the crystal and the gem! Let's get back to the warp room!" Toby cheered. The five individuals headed to the elevator as they got back to the warp room. Meanwhile the ponies and Discord got to Paralyzed. They get a ball too, but they were separate. However, they get to stick all together. "Since when did Ponyville get frozen and dark?" Pinkie asked. "Maybe Nightmare Moon must be back to make nightmares again," Twilight answered. "Well, let's get this bright. I don't want to go horrid over that dreaded beast again!" Rarity cried. The ponies and Discord moved forward in their ball forms as they destroyed crates. They avoided pitfalls and raised up toward elevators. Rainbow was about to crash into some nitro crates, but Discord teleported her out of the way. "Don't crash into those," he said. The group crossed over bridges, got shot by cannons (the good kind), and leaped over gaps. They slid down slides similar to Bamboozled but they were more longer. They went into pipes and went inside them and out. Luckily Twilight crashed in the Nitro Crate Switch just as Applejack got the crystal. "Crystal? Check. Gem?" Discord remarked. "Got it!" Pinkie Pie called out as she grabbed the gem. The gang headed on the elevator and they went back to the warp room. Everyone celebrated at their total of 6 crystals and 8 gems. They are getting close to put Ro-Ko in hibernation again and to perish Nightmare Moon. Meanwhile in the Cortex Vortex... "Fools!" Uka Uka shouted. "Need I remind you that Crash is still alive? We need to get rid of him and his pesky partners!" "Uh, we are on it, boss." James replied. "We are devising on a plan to get those birdbrains executed." "Hmm. Well, get back to work." the mask grunted as he flew away. "Does he always become like that?" James asked Cortex. "Believe me, yes." the doctor replied. "We need to get him what he wants so he doesn't bring ruins to us." "Well, this be a tragic plan." Starlight Glimmer complained. "Settle down, everyone. I have recruited a human in assistance." Tirek spoke. "Who will that be?" Crunch asked. "He is an evil twin of some kid named Toby Mason. He is my ultimate creation." Tirek replied. And he turned and shouted "Rise my monstrosity!" "Yes, Master." a voice replied as it walked loudly into the Cortex Vortex. It was a shadow, but when it got closer, it was actually a human. Everyone but James and Tirek laughed hysterically at the human that stood between them. "Ha ha!" Sombra laughed. "Look out, Equestria! Your land is about to be enslaved by some little ape!" Tirek suddenly took notice of this and grabbed King Sombra by the neck. "How dare you mock this human!" he shouted loudly. He then turned to the human. "I like to introduce you to your new family and new home, George Cunningham." "Thank you, Master." George replied. "Hang on." James cried. "You look like my son Toby Mason." Indeed he was right. George Cunningham looked exactly like Toby Mason. Although they were a few differences. George has a mole on his cheek and he doesn't wear any glasses. "This could be the second step of our three-step plan." Cortex exclaimed. "You are right, Cortex." Queen Chrysalis replied. "This can fool Celetsia and her subjects for us to take over the world." "And then we can trick Crash Bandicoot, his sister, and my brother to give him the crystals and gems." Uka Uka explained. "That way, nothing can stop us!" "Look out, Crash Bandicoot," Cortex said. "You're about to meet another archenemy of your friends!" Then he went back to laughing evilly. Author's Note Wow! George Cunningham is born! He will bring ruin to our heroes! But for now, he shall work plans with the villains. See you next time! Chapter 10: Wizards and Lizards/Twilight's Triple Trouble/George's Plan Part 1As the gang woke up, they set courses. Joshua, Icezer, Bolt, Mike, Nyx, me, Serenity, Kelly, and Heaven warped to Wizards and Lizards, while Twilight teleported herself, Nathan, Mavis, Cory, Toby, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Scootaloo, Silver Spoon, and Rainbow Dash to Ponyville. "Wow! Real wizards!" Joshua cried as they got there. "Don't touch them!" Serenity shouted. "Just because they are wizards doesn't mean they are friendly. Icezer told me about these enemies, and we should avoid their blasts at all times." "Gotcha." Joshua agreed. I spun and body slammed crates while the kids fought the wizards and dodged their blasts. Then they encountered a bonus platform, which me and Aku Aku had entered. The rest of the gang decided to stay behind. I crawled under nitro crates and stomped on crates. Unaware to me, there was a figure watching my every move. "Hmm. A simple bandicoot and a flying mask? This shouldn't be too hard to get rid of them!" he said, as he snapped his fingers. I was making some progress until I've heard some crumbling. I looked up to see falling cement, which thankfully, I dodged just in time. I ran and ran while sliding and breaking some crates. I made it to the end of the bonus round, and the figure just cringed. "Rats! This will be a lot harder than I thought! But I got something planned for his friends." he snickered, while disappearing. "Alright, guys. We are next to the bonus platform, which Crash should appear by now." Joshua said, as I came floating next to the them. We later began to make progress of dodging bats, avoiding wizard blasts, and blowing out fires. But the real trouble began as we crossed the bridge. A huge Tyrannosaurs Rex raged towards the heroes while a dark figure was riding on top of it. "Face extinction, morons!" the figure said to the gang. "Run!!!" Kelly screamed. As we ran off, we jumped over pitfalls, dodged nitro crates, crashed into some regular crates, and finally crossed a bridge that the dinosaur stopped in. However, the chase doesn't end there. Therefore, George sent some crocodiles, tigers, bears, cyborgs, snakes, rhinos, and bulldogs to hurt the heroes. "Oh, come on! First we had to deal the T-Rex, and now these?" Icezer complained. "There's no time to complain! Just run again!" Joshua cried. Well, the chase is on again! Meanwhile on the other group... They had arrived to see Ponyville glued by a magnetic force. Twilight, Toby, Mavis, and the others suddenly got pulled away and landed in a nearby desktop. "Dear Celestia!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed. "Flying ducks!" "Duckies? This must be a dream come true." Mavis thought, as she began flying towards them. "Tiger, don't go flying away from us like that." Nathan called. Suddenly, a huge duck appeared, opening it's mouth, and before the girl can try to escape, it ran to her, and swallowed Mavis in a gulp. Nathan panicked and tried to pry the duck open, but it flew away. "No." Nathan panted, as he fell to the floor. "Mavis." Twilight tried to levitate the giant duck, but it seemed magic-proof. Suddenly, a orb floated, and it revealed to be a screen of Shadow Mavis. "So, come back crawling to me, eh?" the girl mocked. "Grr. Not you again!" complained Cory. "What now?" "I've decided to stir the pots on you, and since we joined major allies this time, things will be different!" Shadow Mavis smirked. "What do you mean?" Toby asked. "Not to spoil anything, but let's just say I've one of the villains messing with you and a marsupial friend of yours." Shadow Mavis said, as the giant duck flew off. Nathan tried to fly after it, but was suddenly grabbed behind, and he turned to see Toby pulling him. "Let me go, Toby. I've got to go after her to save my sister." Nathan barked. "I know, but we should try to find someone who can help." Toby said. "Toby's right. We need to find a way to reach inside there." Twilight said. "How about that workshop over there?" Pinkie Pie suggested. "Not possible. I don't see one floating one here." Nathan said. "Right over there." Pinkie replied, pointing to a floating workshop nearby. "Well, that can work." Rainbow Dash said, as Twilight teleported all of them to the workshop entrance. "Hello, there. How can I help you?" a pony said. "We are looking for a hot-air balloon, umm..." Nathan said. "Name's Tanker." the pony said. "Some type of those vehicles is just around the basement." "Thanks, Tanker." the gang said, as they rushed to the basement. What they saw was some airships, planes, and balloons. "Really?" Rainbow said. "Hang on, there is something that can raise our hopes." Cory said, as he walked to a pump. He grabbed a empty hot-air balloon, attached the pump, and started pushing it. Each pump, the balloon got bigger. Cory was panting, as the hot-air balloon was big enough. "Good job, Cory. You did enough." Rainbow complimented, as she carried him to the basket while the others got in. They flew out of the workshop, as Tanker pushed a button, causing the doors above the workshop to open. "Thank you for purchasing at Tanker's Workshop. Come back soon!" he called. The ponies and humans were off flying at the sky of Ponyville. They could see the giant duck flying. "All we need is some sort disguise to get in." Cory planned. "Maybe we could use these?" Toby asked, raising some enemy costumes and some mustaches and toupees. "Good idea." the others said. Meanwhile in the giant duck... Mavis yawned, as she opened her eyes and smacked her lips. She found herself in some sort of lab. "Where am I?" she asked herself. "Why, you are in my airship." a voice replied. Mavis turned around to see her evil twin sitting in a throne. "Oh, no! Not you again!" she cried. "Yep. Me, George, and the others have teamed up with new enemies to triumph your lands." Shadow Mavis cackled. "That will never happen!" Mavis cried, shooting a ray of magic at her twin, but she just flicked it away. "Pathetic." Shadow Mavis commented. "Guards!" she pushed a button, summoning crocodile-like men. "Take her off my sight! She knows too much!" The reptilian guards carried Mavis away while she tried to run off. As they left, another crocodile guard rushed in. "Your Highness! We found some allies coming to our base!" he said. "More minions? Well, let them in. The more, the unstoppable!" Shadow Mavis said. At another part of the airship, the beak was opening and in came a hot-air balloon. Our heroes came out, dressed as crocodiles. "What is your business here?" a reptilian guard demanded the gang. "We are just here for Shadow Mavis's orders!" Toby replied. "On what condition?" the guard asked. "For developing a giant cannon on this ship. That way, it can destroy our enemies more quickly than you could say "Blast Off!"''Cory explained. This made the guard more convinced. "Sorry to keep you waiting." Toby and the others went around the halls, looking for Mavis. While searching for her, they found many pictures of George Cunningham, Diddy, Klump, Krusha, and his friends altogether. It seemed all well for them, but the last image shown several pictures of George, Pavilion, and the others deformed by a magic form, which made our heroes cringe in fear. "Oh, crud." Cory muttered. Before anyone could notice, he saw a diary labeled "Shadow Mavis's Diary: DO NOT STEAL!!!". He then took and hid it on his pants pocket. The gang walked by other crocodile guards, carrying a crying Mavis by her arms. "What do you think you're doing?" Twilight deadpanned. "We are taking this girl to her doom." one guard said. "Well, leave that to us. We'll take care of her while you guys grab some Honey Smacks." Pinkie Pie said. "OK." the guards said, as they gave Mavis to the gang. "What are "Honey Smacks"? "It's one of these." Cory explained, as he unrolled a scroll containing a Wikipedia of Honey Smacks. It can be clicked here on the link.https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjkvazF2rTKAhWEKCYKHWAuAyUQFggdMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FHoney_Smacks&usg=AFQjCNHz09978b52x6MUbZ11IbD2IpAGHA&sig2=5hia8pw-LPN2rN9WABHdmQ "It's a good cereal. Would you like some?" Nathan said. "Sure." the crocodile guards replied. Unknown to them, Nathan ran up to them and smacked them in the face, making them fall unconscious. "You mess with one of us, you mess with all of us!" Nathan shouted. "Are you all right, Tiger?" "Now that you're here, yes." Mavis said. "Well, please don't go flying like that again. You made us worried, even Dashie." Cory replied. "Hey, what's this?" Toby asked. He and everyone looked up to see a giant vault. To be continued... Author's Note I deeply apologize for not updating any of my stories. I was busy reading other stories, getting people to read some, playing video games, watching movies, and battling Cortex. It takes time. I'll try to update another story soon. Chapter 3: The MLP villains meet CortexIn a hill nearby Ponyville, an adult human wakes up in a unknown location. "Where the heck am I?" James asked himself. "You are in the mirror room," King Sombra said. "Why?" asked James. "We need help to get revenge on our sworn enemies, especially Celestia's subjects," Queen Chrysalis answered. "I will set the place in an another universe that can assist us," Lord Tirek said. He configured the mirror for a course on Wumpa Island. One by one, the villains went inside it. The villains reawaken to find themselves in a space station. "Whose there?" a voice boomed as the door to the space station flew open. "AAAAACCCKKK!" James shouted. "What business do you all have here?" Uka Uka demanded. "What we want," Sombra explained. "Is to take over the world." "That's impossible," Cortex said. "That's what we want." "Well, so do we," Chrysalis replied. "Hmmm, OK. You shall come with us." N. Gin said. The MLP villains followed the Crash Bandicoot villains in the space station as they introduced each other and explained about themselves. 2 hours later... "So let me get this straight," Uka Uka said. "You want to take over a place called Equestria with us? Our beef is with Wumpa Island. We really hate Crash Bandicoot and my brother, Aku Aku." "Well, I have the power to suck people's power away." Tirek spoke up. "That can be useful," N. Tropy exclaimed. "But Crash is no ordinary bandicoot. He always finds a way to defeat us." "Indeed," Cortex replied. "I have been working on a new secret weapon ever since Crash defeated me," He pressed on a button and out came a large beast as he called out "Rise, my monstrosity!" "Yes, Master." the bandicoot replied. "Who's that?" Starlight Glimmer asked. "This is Crunch," explained the mad genius. "Crunch, meet your new friends." "Hey, everybody." Crunch introduced himself. "Hey, Crunch," everyone replied. "So, Master," Crunch spoke up. "When do we start your wrath?" "Real soon, Crunch," Cortex replied as he smiled devilishly. "Real soon." Author's Note Wow! This might be double trouble for our heroes! Now me and my family will find out what's going on but first they will meet the children of Harmony, their parents, The Mane 6, and the CMC. See you later!
Chapter 1: The Bandicoot Family/The MLP Family4 years ago... After I defeated Dr. Neo Cortex again, the doctor, Uka Uka, N. Tropy, and the Time Twister got sucked into a portal as the evil mask cried out "No! It cannot be! Not a prisoner of time again! AAUGGH!!!!" Fortunately for the heroes, we managed to escape back home. It was winter in Wumpa Island, as a fire sparked into logs of my chimney. "The Time Twister Machine could not hold itself together. We were lucky to escape," Aku Aku announced to us. Meanwhile, Cortex and N. Tropy, now as infants, are fighting over, pulling, and holding on to Uka Uka each of their sides. "Give me the mask! When should I take over the world? Come on!" Cortex whined. Uka Uka was groaning over the fight, as he could not do anything about it. "It is difficult to say what has happened to our enemies," Aku Aku said, voice over. "But I doubt we will see them for a loooonggg time" So it's unknown how the villains got back to normal, but that's for another story. Present: 2002 in Equestria, set before Tirek's Revenge. Toby Mason, Nyx, Joshua, Mike, Colin Fraser, Nathan, Heaven, Conner, Timmy, and the rest of their human friends along with the Mane 6, Spike, the fillies, and the CMC were having a picnic together at the Ponyville Park. "Guys, I'm starting to feel something strange," Toby said. "What makes you say that?" Nyx asked. "Toby must have been shaken up after we met each other in a crazy way," Heaven responded. "Not that," Toby replied. "You feel sorry after you turned us into your own kind?" Sweetie Belle asked. "No, big sister," Toby replied again. "The way we lost our human parents but got them back after you saved us by granting your wish?" Joshua said. "Not exactly," Toby answered. "I'm getting this weird vibration that I sense something animal but it's unlike here in our new home." "What is it?" Pinkie Pie asked. "I don't know, Auntie Pinkie," Toby said. "But it has something to do with that!" He pointed to a weird round object nearby the trees. "What's that?" Heaven asked, as everyone took a look at it. "Possibly a fruit," Conner said, as he picked it up. "But what type?" Applejack asked. "We don't know, Mom," Mike responded. Suddenly a portal emerged out of it, sucking the children of Harmony into the portal. "AAAAHHH! MOOOOMMA! MOMMMY! DAAADDY!" the kids screamed as they were sucked inside and the portal closed. The Elements of Harmony gave each other shocked looks, along with the human parents, and the young ones. This caused them to scream so loud. "Dear god, Dear god!" Ashley cried. "Where did my baby go?!?" "Possibly on another dimension!" Twilight Sparkle replied. "We must go to our castle and read the books to find out where they are!" Spike cried. "Follow me!" The Mane 6, The CMC, the fillies, and the human adults followed the baby dragon to their former home. "Stay safe, Toby," Fluttershy and Ashley whispered sadly. "You too, kids," everyone else whispered sadly too as they ran to the castle. Author's Note Well, here's the first chapter of the story. I hope you guys might like it, because it has our favorite OC children in it. It will be very cool for those guys to meet our favorite marsupial! Any ideas? Leave them in the comments section of the story or on my user page. See you in the next chapter.
Chapter 2: Cortex's New PlanSomewhere in space, there was a space station having a bad guy meeting. Inside the space station, six occupants were in it. "Imbeciles! Fools! Nincompoops!" said Uka Uka. "Can't you idiots do anything right?" What was shown next was Dingodile, N. Gin, Tiny Tiger, N. Tropy, and of course, Dr. Neo Cortex. They were all depressed of not only of their failures to take over the world, but their own boss was shouting at them. "According to this," Uka Uka said, as he presented a line graph going barely up and sharply falling low. "Your track record of spending evil is pathetic!" "Uka Uka, it's not our fault!" Cortex protested. "That retched bandicoot is to blame!" Then a hologram of Crash Bandicoot was shown as Tiny Tiger grabs to eat it, only for it to disappear. "I will not let anything stand in the way of evil," Uka Uka replied. "Especially not a brainless orange marsupial. Crash must be eliminated!" "Uh, Uka Uka," N. Gin spoke up. "Need I remind you that Crash always finds a way to defeat us? Maybe he's just too good for us!" Uka Uka then responds "Enough excuses! You five idiots need to come up with one big plan! OR ELSE!" Cortex mumbles "How did I ever get into these situations?" "There must be something we can come up with," N. Tropy said. Then he turns to Cortex. "Say, Doctor, haven't you have deprieving with some kind of secret weapon at the lab? "I don't know what you're talking about N. Tropy," Cortex replies. N. Gin then says "Dr. Cortex. I think he's referring to the super secret weapon you've been working on day and night since the last time Crash defeated you." Cortex tries to give him signals to keep him quiet, but doesn't work. "Enough bickering! Do we have a plan?!?" The evil mask shouted. "Well, my scientific endeavors was able to create a genetic super weapon of unbelievable strength now. But the power source is the final hidden ingredient." Cortex explained. "Elemental. Elementals. Yes. The Elementals." Uka Uka said. "Yes," the doctor replied. "The Elementals. That's it. We could release their destructive power to create and bring my secret weapon to life. We could have the power to crush mountains! Demolish entire cities!" Uka Uka then finished "And then wipe Crash Bandicoot of the face of the Earth forever!" "Get ready to face my wrath, Crash Bandicoot!" Cortex stated. "MUAWHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" Author's Note Wow! The doctor's back with a new bad plan! The fourth chapter is when Crash Bandicoot, Aku Aku, Coco Bandicoot, and Pura find out what's happening and they meet the children of harmony. Later the Mane 6, their friends, and adult parents find them in the warp room. But for the next chapter will include James Mason and the MLP villains. They will team up with Cortex. You'll find out next time! See ya!
Chapter 4: What's The Big IdeaIt was a warm sunny day at Wumpa Island. Coco Bandicoot was riding on her rocket sled at the beach while I was holding on to a handrail behind her. "Come on, Crash!" Coco cheered. "Yeah, Crash. You're doing great!" At the beach, Pura was making a sandcastle while Aku Aku sat on a chair to relax. It was going well until a portal opened. Out came the children of harmony. Aku Aku and Pura looked at each other as they took a step forward the kids. This caused Toby to whimper sadly. "P-p-please d-d-don't hurt us," he cried. "Yea-a-h, we don't taste ve-e-ery well," Joshua said. Again Aku Aku and Pura looked at each other again and back to each other. "It's OK. We won't hurt you at all, young ones," the mask replied. The kids calmed down and became calm after not being injured by them. But then an explosion was heard. "What's happening?" Aku Aku asked. Everyone took a look at the volcano that was burning. "No," Aku Aku exclaimed. "This cannot be." Then the gang took a look at the stormy clouds going on their way. "Oh, no." the mask said. The dark clouds covered the sun as they turned the sky dark. Coco eventually took notice of this. "What's going on?" the female bandicoot cried. "Oh, no. Crash, look out!" But it was too late as the wave knocked out me and my sister out of the ocean. Luckily everyone survived it as Aku Aku pulled himself out of the sand. "Is everyone all right?" he asked everyone. "Yep," everyone but me and Pura replied. Suddenly another portal emerged and out came the Mane 6, the fillies, adult parents, and the CMC. "TOBY!" Ashley cried out. "MOMMY!" Toby replied happily. The children of harmony hugged their parents, their friends, and their Equestria family. "What is that?" Rainbow Dash shouted, pointing at the erupting volcano and the stormy clouds. "A disaster," Aku Aku answered. "It seems that my evil twin brother, Uka Uka, is up to his no good tricks again. I must find out what's he up to." He turned to the humans and ponies. "All of you must follow Crash Bandicoot and Coco here into his house for safety. I'll meet up with all of you later." He explained as he warped somewhere else. "Come on, everybody," Coco called out. "Follow me and Crash to our house." She then ran to the house along with me. "OK." the heroes replied as they went to the house with us. However, no one noticed that an evil spirit picked up a locket and disappeared. Author's Note I know they introduce each other to their selves, but they will do that after Aku Aku returns to them. Anyway, about the evil spirit picking up the locket, can you guess who it is? Leave your answers in the comments section! This is Crash Bandicoot, out!
Chapter 5: The Problems/The IntroductionsIn space, there is a flying abandoned temple that Uka Uka is on now. Then Aku Aku appears. "Hello, my twin brother," Uka Uka said. "You have gotten to my attention, Uka Uka." said Aku Aku. "What kind of diabolical scheme do you and Dr. Cortex planned this time?" "No scheme, just a group of villains dropping by for a visit." Uka Uka replied. Aku Aku looked around as he saw other masks appearing next to Uka Uka. Not only that, but other villains that are unfamiliar to him also appeared. "No, not the Elementals!" Aku Aku cried. "And who are those?" "Just some new recruits we hired for help," Uka Uka replied. "Uka Uka, why did you release them?" Aku Aku asked. "Don't you know what happened the last time they were free?" "So they were responsible for a few earthquakes, floods and ice ages a few centuries back," Uka Uka said. "This is the first part of my three-step plan to take over the world." "The Elementals are far too dangerous to be released, and this could spell trouble for all of us!" Aku Aku exclaimed. "And what do you mean, "three-step plan"? Py-Ro laughs evilly. "On the contrary, Aku Aku," he said. "It only spells for the planet you care so much about. Also, this doesn't corern you heroes. Just us villains. Destroy him!" The Elementals and the MLP villains used their magic to get rid of Aku Aku, but he dodges the attack. "You won't get away with this!" he cried. Uka Uka laughs mischievously and says "Who is going to stop us?" Meanwhile, in my house, the gang was drying off and relaxing. Then they see Aku Aku enter the house. "Crash, Coco, everyone," the mask announced. "It is just as I feared. Uka Uka and Dr. Cortex have released a group of destructive masks called the Elementals." "Who are those?" Nyx asked. "You know where you swim at the beach, there's water in it?" Aku Aku explained. "Yeah, why?" Toby asked. "One of the masks are important to that ecosystem." the flying mask replied. "And when you have warmth, the fire mask is in charge of that. Also, the windy chills you feel have belonged to the wind mask. Let's not forget the earth mask, that makes hard and dense surfaces that seem indestructible. Now that they are free, they will cause many destructions to our worlds. And now, they must be stopped before they will destroy the earth and all of it's inhabitants!" Everyone gasped in shock. "How we are going to do that?" asked Joshua. "The only way to stop the Elemental's destructive nature is to imprison them with the use of ancient crystals," the mask explained. "Each Elemental can be returned back to their hibernation with a total of five crystals. We must act quickly. Coco, what is the status of the new system you've been working on? "It's almost finished," the female bandicoot replied. "A few little more adjusting and we'll be ready to go." "Well done, Coco." Aku Aku cheered. "This gives us the chance to use it. We must hurry." We all went to Coco's new lab. Inside was a VR Hub System, a time traveling machine, a wormhole generator, and so much more. Me and the gang stared at awe at Coco's progress while she made a few finishing touches. "OK. It's ready to go." she announced. "What about us? How can we help?" The Mane 6, the CMC, the fillies, and the children of harmony asked. "I have an invention that can work." Coco replied. She opened a warp room that was similar to the VR Hub System, but a little larger. "It can warp you here and your home anytime you like," Coco announced. The MLP cast cheered at this moment. They get to go home and visit this place more often. "Anyway, let's get back to business." Aku Aku said to everyone. "There are some things all of you must know. Tiny Tiger is one huge animal and can crush things. Do not approach him closely. Dingodile is a one crazy mammal. Do not let him burn you. N. Tropy is the master of time, so avoid being blasted by him. N. Gin makes mechanical robots, and you all must attack his weak points. Dr. Cortex is the creator of Crash, so he'll be able to make a quick defeat on him." "OK!" the gang saluted. "I think it's time we got some help with us along the way," the mask said to me. I pointed to myself as if to say "Me?" and my protector nods. Author's Note That's some exciting news! Now since the game has to be completed with 25 crystals, 30 relics, 46 gems, and 5 bosses, I will make some changes. The amount of crystals and with gems with doubled along with the bosses, but the relics will be cut out. And some MLP villains the Mane 6 encountered before will return as well. Time to get your game on!
Chapter 6: Meeting the Old and New Nemesis/Meeting Ro-Ko and Nightmare MoonAfter everyone set their missions and duties, they got a message in the large TV screen. Out came a vortex of Cortex. "Crash Bandicoot, my old nemesis," he spoke up. "How funny. Still gathering crystals? Well, this time it will be harder for you to get them. And I've seen you brought some friends to help with it. Now Crash, and whoever goes by the name of Toby Mason, could you two come out here?" Toby shivered in fear at the mad genius mentioning his name without introducing him first, so the gang cuddled up to him in one big hug. "If you want him, then you must speak with us!" Joshua protested to the doctor. "Th-h-hanks, guys," Toby whimpered. "Bravo!" Dr. Cortex said. "I've never seen much bravery defending your friends so much! Now for the kid known as Toby Mason, meet my new assistant, James Mason." His head disappeared and out came James's head as he laughed evilly. "Daddy?!?" Toby cried. "That's right, you sorry excuse for a son," James replied. "I have decided to take vengeance on not only you, but your family and friends as well. Even your soft side can't change me!" "Di-id Da-a-addy just ca-all me a s-sorry ex-xcuse for a son?" Toby spoke, shaking with sobs. Everyone got closer to Toby as they gave James an angry glare. "How dare you speak to our son like that, James!" Ashley shouted angrily. "Oh, and you are the second person in my list that I would like to get rid of," James replied with an evil grin. "James!" Aku Aku said. "Don't you know that you must never work for Cortex? Good always triumph over evil!" "Ah, I see you are that flying driftwood my boss told me about," James exclaimed. "Well, too bad, because you won't be protecting your chicken nuggets more than you could now." We all gasped at the insult, especially Coco Bandicoot. "You take that back, you jerk!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "These buddies don't need to be insulted!" "I guess I'll have to take it up a notch," snapped James. "Uka Uka, come here." His head was gone and Uka Uka came in. "Grr! You imbeciles have been foiling our plans for times!" Uka Uka yelled. "This time, you won't screw it up! And to that, we will make your journey harder than ever!" "Oh, really?" Spike asked. "You and what army?" Uka Uka disappeared and came a hologram of a monster. "This is the creature that keeps sabotaging your master plans? Ha! You got to be kidding me. I'll exterminate all of them, one by one." Crunch spoke up. "Who are you?" Nyx asked. The hologram of Crunch was gone and was replaced by Cortex's. "My apologies, everyone," he announced. "That was my super secret weapon, Crunch. He'll make sure nothing gets in our way of evil." "What about the Elementals?" Aku Aku asked. "You'll see them during when you warp into a level," Cortex replied. "Now this is what I expected. A real bandicoot war. And that's not all. A father and son duel is included as well. Plus, we hired new recruits to assist us. Oh well, everyone makes mistakes. Tata, for now." As he disappeared, everyone gave each other shocked looks. Their own enemies teaming up with other villains? This was not good. "Come on, some of us must get to Arctic Antics while another group goes to Everfree Exhaustion." Aku Aku said. "Any volunteers?" Applejack, Nathan, Apple Bloom, and Mike raised their hands for Everfree Exhaustion while me, Toby, Joshua, and Heaven raised their hands for Arctic Antics. "Okay," Aku Aku explained. "Each of you must go to a level, stand on top of the number, wait for the elevator to send you there, collect the crystals and the gems in the level, and get back here safely. OK?" "Alright!" everyone saluted. Before they went, the pony and human adults hugged their children. "Be safe for Momma and Ashley," Fluttershy whispered. "I will," Toby responded with pride. "Careful out there, my son," Twilight said. "I understand," Joshua replied. "Come on, fellows!" Applejack said to her sister, nephew, and son. "Let's get those crystals in our place!" "OK!" Apple Bloom, Mike, and Nathan replied. "I will also come with you to protect you," Aku Aku said to the two groups. The others who stayed behind wished them luck. The two groups disappeared in an orb. As they were falling to the level, Ro-Ko, the Earth Elemental, came in front of our heroes. "What are you looking at, fuzz heads?" he spoke. "I'm Ro-Ko, the Earth Elemental. Uka Uka and Dr. Cortex woke me from my captive slumber and now, I'm free to pulverize whoever gets in my way. Oh ho, don't even think about collecting all those crystals. That's right. I'm going to bury all of you alive. Meet my companion, Nightmare Moon." His head was gone as Nightmare Moon appeared. "So, you seem to be troubling us for years now, eh?" she said. "It is I, Nightmare Moon! A shadow pony and a kid's father had given me my magic back. Stay out of my way making the night last forever. Otherwise, I will turn your precious dreams into horrible nightmares from now on. Don't let the bedbugs bite!" And just like that, she was gone. Author's Note Sorry about this guys. I know I said that I will include Arctic Antics and Everfree Exhaustion in this chapter, but as that last word implies, I'm starting to get tired of writing more than two chapters a day. I'll write more in the next day. Get well soon!
Chapter 7: Arctic Antics/Everfree ExhaustionThe first group arrived to Arctic Antics in a flash. "Boy," Toby said, shivering. "I-it's su-u-ure col-ld in this place he-ere." "I agree," Joshua complied, shaking. "Sa-ay, how com-me Cra-a-ash is not shi-ivering?" "He has a body made a fur," Heaven explained. "So let's get those crystals and gems!" We all saw crates up ahead. This caused me to spin in them. Then the gang saw some seals nearby. Toby wanted to pet them, but a voice shouted. "Stop!" Joshua called. "But why won't you let me pet them?" Toby asked. "They are bad seals, Toby. If you touch them, then you might die." Heaven explained. After that was taken care of, I spun them and more crates. Also he jumped on them. Finally, he spun an Aku Aku crate which caused the mask to float out of it. "Aku Aku?" Joshua asked. "What are you doing here?" "Like I said, it's my duty to protect you all." The mask answered. Since they freed our friend, the group had protection from almost anything that might harm us. We jumped through gaps, walked through bridges, broke more crates, and damaged the penguins. What we spun that was the most common crate was the checkpoint crate. If we died, then we'll be sent back there to the last checkpoint we were on. Wumpa fruits were collected by us also. When we collected 100 of them, we get an extra life. Speaking of life, we avoided the nitro crates. We will have to deal with them later. We managed to skate on thick ice. By seeing Outline boxes, we spun Switch crates to activate them. Spinning into a Crash and gang crate will also give us an extra life. For me, I bounced on the bouncy crates that give me Wumpa fruits every time I stomp on them. I also broke the locked crates that require me to body slam into them. There was a surprise that there was another Aku Aku crate in front of us. "Haven't we already broke your crate already?" asked Toby. "Yes. But there are more crates of mine that need to be broken." the mask replied. "Also, if you call me a third time, then I will give invincibility for 10 seconds. You can break anything and not get harmed. There is one now!" I spun the crate and Aku Aku faces got on the group. We went fast as we could to break all the crates that stood between us and the enemies. They saw two platforms up ahead. One for the bonus round and the other for the death route. "You kids take the bonus round while me and Crash take the death route!" Aku Aku announced. As the children went to the bonus round, they managed to break some crates, gained extra lives, jumped and avoided the TNT crates that stood between them. Meanwhile me and Aku Aku avoided the many hazards that threatened to exterminate them. I got the blue gem and warped back to the children. "Got the crystal?" Aku Aku asked. "You betcha!" Joshua replied happily, holding the crystal. "Say, what does that do?" Toby said as he touched the Nitro Switch crate. Suddenly, all nitro crates exploded, leaving a clear gem. The young child gathered the gem. "Yes!" Heaven cheered. "Our first crystal and two gems!" "Look! A target!" Joshua said, pointing to a target containing random prizes. "Let's get on." Heaven said, as they carried The first group headed to the elevator that warped them back to Coco's VR Hub system. While no one was looking, Joshua pulled out some sunglasses and put them on. He also held a boombox as the music played and he hooted in celebration. As the music ended, Joshua went back to the gang. Now let's get focused on the western gang. "Ma'h brain has never been that dizza'h since my sister was born!" Nathan complied as they arrived to Everfree Exhaustion. "Come on, guys," called Mike. "Let's find that crystal and gems before those bad guys get them!" The western gang saw a hill up ahead. They went to climb it for minutes. But on the middle of the hill, they felt an earthquake beneath their bodies. Suddenly, one opened below Apple Bloom. She began to fall. "AAAHH!" she screamed. In the nick of time, Nathan managed to fly fast and save his filly friend from falling to her death. "You saved me, Nathan!" Apple Bloom cried as she hugged Nathan. "What do you mean? You never leave a friend behind." he replied. Everyone blushed happily after not only the save the bat-boy made, but the saying that is heartwarming. "Alright, fellows," Applejack interrupted. "Let's get those varmints into-- what in tarnation?!?" Platforms appeared in from of them along with crates to break and avoid. "Alright, peoples and ponies," Mike said. "Let's get smashing and crashing!" The second group jumped above the platforms as they avoided the nitro crates and broke the regular crates. What was surprising to them was that there was an Aku Aku crate. They suddenly broke the crate and out came the flying mask. "Say, weren't you back at the warp room?" Apple Bloom asked Aku Aku. "Yes, but my sole purpose is to protect you all," the mask answered. "Good," Applejack answered. "Now let's get those crystals and gems!" As our heroes ventured further, they saw a Timberwolf and two Diamond Dogs in front of them. They dodged their enemies quickly but then saw TNT crates behind them. The mares distracted the enemies by pushing them closer to the other way while the humans jumped on the TNT crates and ran off together. This caused not only the enemies to be defeated, but it gave them an extra amount of 3 lives. Once that was settled, there was another two platforms. One for the bonus round and the other for a death route. "You two take that bonus round platform while me and Applejack go to the death route!" Mike called out. For the bonus round, it seemed a lot like the one in Arctic Antics but more larger and had more grass. In the death route, there were nitro crates, more Timberwolves, and sliding Diamond Dogs. To add the danger of that, deep chasms were included. As Apple Bloom destroyed the nearby crates, Nathan flew her over the nitro crates for safety. After that was succeeded, things were going antsy for Applejack and Mike. The human child had to ride his mother's back as the country mare jumped over great distances. While jumping, she broke many crates up ahead that are mid-air. She and the kid got the blue gem afterwards. As for the other two, Nathan broke the last two original crates while Apple Bloom kicked the Nitro Switch Crate that exploded the nitro crates that are left. They came upon on top of the hill as Applejack and Nathan got there. "We got the crystal and gem!" the filly and child exclaimed as they shown their proof. "And we got the blue gem!" the mare and other kid replied as they presented the blue gem. After that was taken care of, they all went to the elevator. They came back to the warp room. "So, how did it go?" Twilight asked the two groups. "Oh, it was always the same," Aku Aku responded. "This time they not only helped us, but we assisted them as well" Everyone cheered at that answer. "Oh my Celestia!" Rarity cried. "It's past night time! Time to put you children into bed." "Okay, Mommy." Conner said. "You too, kids." the rest of the Mane 6 and human adults announced. Every child went to their beds as their parents tucked them in their beds. They went to theirs as well. As for me, Coco, and Aku Aku, I went to sleep in the floor like always. Coco went to her room and slept on her bed. Aku Aku went to a secret room and laid asleep as well. It was a long day ahead for them. Author's Note Well, our heroes collected their first two crystals and four gems altogether. The next level chapter will be a chill and flight for them. This is Crash Bandicoot, signing off.
Chapter 8: Tornado Alley/Maximum Overfly/Toby's StoryIt was a bright sunny day as everyone woke up from their slumber. "How did everyone sleep?" Aku Aku asked. "It was fine." the rest of the gang replied. "Alright, let's get another crystal and gem in each of our universes." Twilight spoke up. Coco set a course for Tornado Alley and Maximum Overfly. Fluttershy, me, Nathan, and Conner decided to go to Tornado Alley while Rainbow Dash, Scootaloo, Joshua, and Nyx settled going on to Maximum Overfly. The two groups went to the elevator like the last time, and they went to the level. The first group arrived to Tornado Alley by flying a plane that was being held by a blimp. The three occupants were the bandicoot and the two kids. The flying Pegasus decided to fly with them. "Crash! Conner! Nathan! Fluttershy!" Coco called voice over in the plane's speakers. "The generators! Shoot them down. Looks like Neo's using them to make a tornado." As the four destroyed some generators, they managed to break some crates. But what seemed unfortunate to them was that they saw not only Cortex's lab assistants were flying on planes to stop them, but there were some changelings around. "What?!?" Fluttershy cried. "Didn't we got rid of those already?" "Looks like Cortex hired a villain who wants to take revenge on us after you guys saved Toby from their queen." Conner answered sadly. "Well, we won't let them get into our way again," replied Nathan. "Let's get those varmints packing!" I fired bullets at the generators while he spun around Cortex's lab assistants and changelings to avoid being hit. Fluttershy also avoided the attacks and went closer to the kids to protect them. By finishing off the generators and crates and avoiding all the obstacles that can harm them, they not only got a crystal, but also collected a gem. The group went back to the warp room and they celebrated the party Pinkie Pie made. As that happened, the second group made it to Maximum Overfly. As they went to the center of the sky, they saw more Lab Assistants and Changelings holding them for defense. "Aren't those changelings already gone?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Cortex has hired more allies of his to take us out." Nyx replied. "Let's get the crystal and gem before they do!" Scootaloo cried. Nyx and Joshua used their magic to shoot down the lab assistants and nearby crates while Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo fought the Changeling drones. It was a tag team battle that seemed hard for them, but they managed to accomplish their goal. Rainbow managed to grab the crystal while Joshua held the gem in pride as they vanished. They also managed to get back to the Warp Room. After celebrating the party, the business was done and dealt with. "So anyway, why is Uka Uka so mean?" Toby asked. "He is an evil mask, child," Aku Aku answered. "Uka Uka was my evil twin brother that wanted to take over our world. Long ago, I locked him into a temple to keep the world safe. He got free, so we stopped him again after using the Time Twister Machine to get some crystals and gems. So now, we must stop him again." "Man, not again," Joshua muttered. "Something wrong?" Coco asked. "Oh, it's just that we are still sad after the loss of my mother years ago," Toby said. "Would you like to talk about it?" Coco asked again. "OK. It would be heartbreaking." Timmy said. "When I was four years old, my Mommy suddenly died in a car crash. Daddy started being mean me afterwards, so one night when I was six, I wished that I had a new home and a family that will never be mean to me. Momma suddenly found me, so she fed me, took care of me, looked after me, and then I met her friends Auntie Pinkie, Auntie Twilight, Auntie Applejack, Auntie Rainbow, Auntie Rarity, and Uncle Spike. After that, I came to Canterlot Castle to meet Auntie Celestia and Auntie Luna. We had a huge party to cheer myself up after I was feeling down. I had fun, and went crusading with my big sisters Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle. When we to school, I met Diamond Tiara, and she began to be mean to me by taking away my glasses and holding them up. My big sisters were about to stop them until Silver Spoon gave them back to me. After that was settled, she told me that I don't belong in Ponyville since I'm not like them. I ran away to the Everfree Forest after having a bad dream. A timberwolf was about to eat me until Auntie Rainbow saved me. She and the others went into my nightmare to find out why I ran away. Throughout some comfort, I felt better. I had learned more stuff about my family. I did a talent show to say goodbye to Mommy. It was heartwarming. I had many adventures with not only my big sisters, but with my aunties. But one day, there was a sudden heart burst in Canterlot Castle. Auntie Celestia found the memories of my Daddy and when we came into them, he was the one who killed Mommy. We all stood up to him but Mommy came as an angel to my comfort. I decided to get Uncle Discord to send him home. I showed up in Ponyville and found out it's my new home. The end." Wewere in tears of joy as we blew our noses in tissues. Even I seemed to have emotions of my own. "I'm sorry that had to happen to you," Aku Aku spoke up. "That's OK, Aku Aku." the child replied. "I got her back by a wish, and now I got a bigger family along with yours." "Awwww..." everyone cooed. "Excuse me, I don't mean to interrupt," Discord replied. "But how was Crash created?" "That's for another story," the mask said. "For now, let's find more crystals and gems." "Alright!" everyone cheered. Author's Note Well, it seems now the story has gotten deeper. But how will the gang react to Crash's backstory? Find out next time on "Toby Mason and the Bandicoot"!
Chapter 9: Bamboozled/Paralyzed/The Villain MeetingThe gang had felt relaxed as they went back to their warp room. Me, Toby, Conner, Spike, and Timmy went to Bamboozled while Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Twilight, Applejack, and Discord got sent to Paralyzed. As they were falling down, Ro-Ko came back. "You want a piece of me, bandicoot, horses, and chimps?" he spoke. "Huh? Huh? Do ya? Wusses!" He was gone as Nightmare Moon's head came. "Stay away from my nighttime!" she demanded as she was gone. Me and kids arrived to Bamboozled in a ball. "How can we move?" Conner asked. "Pushing it, of course!" Spike replied, as he took a step forward the ball to cause to move. "That's a great idea, Uncle Spike," Toby said. "Let's get rolling." We moved the ball forward as they collected wumpa fruits and crashed into crates. We manged to get on top of an wooden-like elevator. There was a huge slide that we were on. "Everybody, hold on!" Timmy shouted, as they all slid. It was exciting for us to ride a huge slide as we smashed more crates and collected more Wumpa Fruits on the way. While getting closer to our goal, we saw some nitro crates. "Don't smash those," Spike spoke. "Or we'll be destroyed." Werolled away from the nitro crates and smashed more crates than ever. We even got more lives by not only getting enough Wumpa fruits, but by smashing some life crates. We crossed a bridge as we got the crystal. Spike moved forward to cause the ball to smash into the nitro crate switch causing every nitro crate to explode. A gem appeared as I moved forward to get it. "Yes! We got the crystal and the gem! Let's get back to the warp room!" Toby cheered. The five individuals headed to the elevator as they got back to the warp room. Meanwhile the ponies and Discord got to Paralyzed. They get a ball too, but they were separate. However, they get to stick all together. "Since when did Ponyville get frozen and dark?" Pinkie asked. "Maybe Nightmare Moon must be back to make nightmares again," Twilight answered. "Well, let's get this bright. I don't want to go horrid over that dreaded beast again!" Rarity cried. The ponies and Discord moved forward in their ball forms as they destroyed crates. They avoided pitfalls and raised up toward elevators. Rainbow was about to crash into some nitro crates, but Discord teleported her out of the way. "Don't crash into those," he said. The group crossed over bridges, got shot by cannons (the good kind), and leaped over gaps. They slid down slides similar to Bamboozled but they were more longer. They went into pipes and went inside them and out. Luckily Twilight crashed in the Nitro Crate Switch just as Applejack got the crystal. "Crystal? Check. Gem?" Discord remarked. "Got it!" Pinkie Pie called out as she grabbed the gem. The gang headed on the elevator and they went back to the warp room. Everyone celebrated at their total of 6 crystals and 8 gems. They are getting close to put Ro-Ko in hibernation again and to perish Nightmare Moon. Meanwhile in the Cortex Vortex... "Fools!" Uka Uka shouted. "Need I remind you that Crash is still alive? We need to get rid of him and his pesky partners!" "Uh, we are on it, boss." James replied. "We are devising on a plan to get those birdbrains executed." "Hmm. Well, get back to work." the mask grunted as he flew away. "Does he always become like that?" James asked Cortex. "Believe me, yes." the doctor replied. "We need to get him what he wants so he doesn't bring ruins to us." "Well, this be a tragic plan." Starlight Glimmer complained. "Settle down, everyone. I have recruited a human in assistance." Tirek spoke. "Who will that be?" Crunch asked. "He is an evil twin of some kid named Toby Mason. He is my ultimate creation." Tirek replied. And he turned and shouted "Rise my monstrosity!" "Yes, Master." a voice replied as it walked loudly into the Cortex Vortex. It was a shadow, but when it got closer, it was actually a human. Everyone but James and Tirek laughed hysterically at the human that stood between them. "Ha ha!" Sombra laughed. "Look out, Equestria! Your land is about to be enslaved by some little ape!" Tirek suddenly took notice of this and grabbed King Sombra by the neck. "How dare you mock this human!" he shouted loudly. He then turned to the human. "I like to introduce you to your new family and new home, George Cunningham." "Thank you, Master." George replied. "Hang on." James cried. "You look like my son Toby Mason." Indeed he was right. George Cunningham looked exactly like Toby Mason. Although they were a few differences. George has a mole on his cheek and he doesn't wear any glasses. "This could be the second step of our three-step plan." Cortex exclaimed. "You are right, Cortex." Queen Chrysalis replied. "This can fool Celetsia and her subjects for us to take over the world." "And then we can trick Crash Bandicoot, his sister, and my brother to give him the crystals and gems." Uka Uka explained. "That way, nothing can stop us!" "Look out, Crash Bandicoot," Cortex said. "You're about to meet another archenemy of your friends!" Then he went back to laughing evilly. Author's Note Wow! George Cunningham is born! He will bring ruin to our heroes! But for now, he shall work plans with the villains. See you next time!
Chapter 10: Wizards and Lizards/Twilight's Triple Trouble/George's Plan Part 1As the gang woke up, they set courses. Joshua, Icezer, Bolt, Mike, Nyx, me, Serenity, Kelly, and Heaven warped to Wizards and Lizards, while Twilight teleported herself, Nathan, Mavis, Cory, Toby, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Scootaloo, Silver Spoon, and Rainbow Dash to Ponyville. "Wow! Real wizards!" Joshua cried as they got there. "Don't touch them!" Serenity shouted. "Just because they are wizards doesn't mean they are friendly. Icezer told me about these enemies, and we should avoid their blasts at all times." "Gotcha." Joshua agreed. I spun and body slammed crates while the kids fought the wizards and dodged their blasts. Then they encountered a bonus platform, which me and Aku Aku had entered. The rest of the gang decided to stay behind. I crawled under nitro crates and stomped on crates. Unaware to me, there was a figure watching my every move. "Hmm. A simple bandicoot and a flying mask? This shouldn't be too hard to get rid of them!" he said, as he snapped his fingers. I was making some progress until I've heard some crumbling. I looked up to see falling cement, which thankfully, I dodged just in time. I ran and ran while sliding and breaking some crates. I made it to the end of the bonus round, and the figure just cringed. "Rats! This will be a lot harder than I thought! But I got something planned for his friends." he snickered, while disappearing. "Alright, guys. We are next to the bonus platform, which Crash should appear by now." Joshua said, as I came floating next to the them. We later began to make progress of dodging bats, avoiding wizard blasts, and blowing out fires. But the real trouble began as we crossed the bridge. A huge Tyrannosaurs Rex raged towards the heroes while a dark figure was riding on top of it. "Face extinction, morons!" the figure said to the gang. "Run!!!" Kelly screamed. As we ran off, we jumped over pitfalls, dodged nitro crates, crashed into some regular crates, and finally crossed a bridge that the dinosaur stopped in. However, the chase doesn't end there. Therefore, George sent some crocodiles, tigers, bears, cyborgs, snakes, rhinos, and bulldogs to hurt the heroes. "Oh, come on! First we had to deal the T-Rex, and now these?" Icezer complained. "There's no time to complain! Just run again!" Joshua cried. Well, the chase is on again! Meanwhile on the other group... They had arrived to see Ponyville glued by a magnetic force. Twilight, Toby, Mavis, and the others suddenly got pulled away and landed in a nearby desktop. "Dear Celestia!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed. "Flying ducks!" "Duckies? This must be a dream come true." Mavis thought, as she began flying towards them. "Tiger, don't go flying away from us like that." Nathan called. Suddenly, a huge duck appeared, opening it's mouth, and before the girl can try to escape, it ran to her, and swallowed Mavis in a gulp. Nathan panicked and tried to pry the duck open, but it flew away. "No." Nathan panted, as he fell to the floor. "Mavis." Twilight tried to levitate the giant duck, but it seemed magic-proof. Suddenly, a orb floated, and it revealed to be a screen of Shadow Mavis. "So, come back crawling to me, eh?" the girl mocked. "Grr. Not you again!" complained Cory. "What now?" "I've decided to stir the pots on you, and since we joined major allies this time, things will be different!" Shadow Mavis smirked. "What do you mean?" Toby asked. "Not to spoil anything, but let's just say I've one of the villains messing with you and a marsupial friend of yours." Shadow Mavis said, as the giant duck flew off. Nathan tried to fly after it, but was suddenly grabbed behind, and he turned to see Toby pulling him. "Let me go, Toby. I've got to go after her to save my sister." Nathan barked. "I know, but we should try to find someone who can help." Toby said. "Toby's right. We need to find a way to reach inside there." Twilight said. "How about that workshop over there?" Pinkie Pie suggested. "Not possible. I don't see one floating one here." Nathan said. "Right over there." Pinkie replied, pointing to a floating workshop nearby. "Well, that can work." Rainbow Dash said, as Twilight teleported all of them to the workshop entrance. "Hello, there. How can I help you?" a pony said. "We are looking for a hot-air balloon, umm..." Nathan said. "Name's Tanker." the pony said. "Some type of those vehicles is just around the basement." "Thanks, Tanker." the gang said, as they rushed to the basement. What they saw was some airships, planes, and balloons. "Really?" Rainbow said. "Hang on, there is something that can raise our hopes." Cory said, as he walked to a pump. He grabbed a empty hot-air balloon, attached the pump, and started pushing it. Each pump, the balloon got bigger. Cory was panting, as the hot-air balloon was big enough. "Good job, Cory. You did enough." Rainbow complimented, as she carried him to the basket while the others got in. They flew out of the workshop, as Tanker pushed a button, causing the doors above the workshop to open. "Thank you for purchasing at Tanker's Workshop. Come back soon!" he called. The ponies and humans were off flying at the sky of Ponyville. They could see the giant duck flying. "All we need is some sort disguise to get in." Cory planned. "Maybe we could use these?" Toby asked, raising some enemy costumes and some mustaches and toupees. "Good idea." the others said. Meanwhile in the giant duck... Mavis yawned, as she opened her eyes and smacked her lips. She found herself in some sort of lab. "Where am I?" she asked herself. "Why, you are in my airship." a voice replied. Mavis turned around to see her evil twin sitting in a throne. "Oh, no! Not you again!" she cried. "Yep. Me, George, and the others have teamed up with new enemies to triumph your lands." Shadow Mavis cackled. "That will never happen!" Mavis cried, shooting a ray of magic at her twin, but she just flicked it away. "Pathetic." Shadow Mavis commented. "Guards!" she pushed a button, summoning crocodile-like men. "Take her off my sight! She knows too much!" The reptilian guards carried Mavis away while she tried to run off. As they left, another crocodile guard rushed in. "Your Highness! We found some allies coming to our base!" he said. "More minions? Well, let them in. The more, the unstoppable!" Shadow Mavis said. At another part of the airship, the beak was opening and in came a hot-air balloon. Our heroes came out, dressed as crocodiles. "What is your business here?" a reptilian guard demanded the gang. "We are just here for Shadow Mavis's orders!" Toby replied. "On what condition?" the guard asked. "For developing a giant cannon on this ship. That way, it can destroy our enemies more quickly than you could say "Blast Off!"''Cory explained. This made the guard more convinced. "Sorry to keep you waiting." Toby and the others went around the halls, looking for Mavis. While searching for her, they found many pictures of George Cunningham, Diddy, Klump, Krusha, and his friends altogether. It seemed all well for them, but the last image shown several pictures of George, Pavilion, and the others deformed by a magic form, which made our heroes cringe in fear. "Oh, crud." Cory muttered. Before anyone could notice, he saw a diary labeled "Shadow Mavis's Diary: DO NOT STEAL!!!". He then took and hid it on his pants pocket. The gang walked by other crocodile guards, carrying a crying Mavis by her arms. "What do you think you're doing?" Twilight deadpanned. "We are taking this girl to her doom." one guard said. "Well, leave that to us. We'll take care of her while you guys grab some Honey Smacks." Pinkie Pie said. "OK." the guards said, as they gave Mavis to the gang. "What are "Honey Smacks"? "It's one of these." Cory explained, as he unrolled a scroll containing a Wikipedia of Honey Smacks. It can be clicked here on the link.https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjkvazF2rTKAhWEKCYKHWAuAyUQFggdMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FHoney_Smacks&usg=AFQjCNHz09978b52x6MUbZ11IbD2IpAGHA&sig2=5hia8pw-LPN2rN9WABHdmQ "It's a good cereal. Would you like some?" Nathan said. "Sure." the crocodile guards replied. Unknown to them, Nathan ran up to them and smacked them in the face, making them fall unconscious. "You mess with one of us, you mess with all of us!" Nathan shouted. "Are you all right, Tiger?" "Now that you're here, yes." Mavis said. "Well, please don't go flying like that again. You made us worried, even Dashie." Cory replied. "Hey, what's this?" Toby asked. He and everyone looked up to see a giant vault. To be continued... Author's Note I deeply apologize for not updating any of my stories. I was busy reading other stories, getting people to read some, playing video games, watching movies, and battling Cortex. It takes time. I'll try to update another story soon.
Chapter 3: The MLP villains meet CortexIn a hill nearby Ponyville, an adult human wakes up in a unknown location. "Where the heck am I?" James asked himself. "You are in the mirror room," King Sombra said. "Why?" asked James. "We need help to get revenge on our sworn enemies, especially Celestia's subjects," Queen Chrysalis answered. "I will set the place in an another universe that can assist us," Lord Tirek said. He configured the mirror for a course on Wumpa Island. One by one, the villains went inside it. The villains reawaken to find themselves in a space station. "Whose there?" a voice boomed as the door to the space station flew open. "AAAAACCCKKK!" James shouted. "What business do you all have here?" Uka Uka demanded. "What we want," Sombra explained. "Is to take over the world." "That's impossible," Cortex said. "That's what we want." "Well, so do we," Chrysalis replied. "Hmmm, OK. You shall come with us." N. Gin said. The MLP villains followed the Crash Bandicoot villains in the space station as they introduced each other and explained about themselves. 2 hours later... "So let me get this straight," Uka Uka said. "You want to take over a place called Equestria with us? Our beef is with Wumpa Island. We really hate Crash Bandicoot and my brother, Aku Aku." "Well, I have the power to suck people's power away." Tirek spoke up. "That can be useful," N. Tropy exclaimed. "But Crash is no ordinary bandicoot. He always finds a way to defeat us." "Indeed," Cortex replied. "I have been working on a new secret weapon ever since Crash defeated me," He pressed on a button and out came a large beast as he called out "Rise, my monstrosity!" "Yes, Master." the bandicoot replied. "Who's that?" Starlight Glimmer asked. "This is Crunch," explained the mad genius. "Crunch, meet your new friends." "Hey, everybody." Crunch introduced himself. "Hey, Crunch," everyone replied. "So, Master," Crunch spoke up. "When do we start your wrath?" "Real soon, Crunch," Cortex replied as he smiled devilishly. "Real soon." Author's Note Wow! This might be double trouble for our heroes! Now me and my family will find out what's going on but first they will meet the children of Harmony, their parents, The Mane 6, and the CMC. See you later!
