Chapters A Whole New World We Live In
Prologue part one
Twilight faced the overgrown centaur with clear anger upon her face. The centaur climbed out of the rubble that the lavender princess put him in. He hated to admit but this pony princess was actually putting up a decent fight, even manage to damage him a few times. He glared realizing this isn't getting anyway.
"How bout a trade, Princess Twilight?" He suggested as he snaps his fingers. After this, 7 orbs appeared above her head. Orbs containing her friends. She glared at the demon once more. How dare he bring her friends into this mess.
"Their release for all the alicorn magic in Equestria" He announced. She gasped, the bastard centaur is using her friends to get rid of her magic. So Equestria could fall against, she then heard the protest of her friends telling her not to go through with it; not to listen to his words. She begin to weigh her options on what she should, she could say no and risk the lives of friends or she could give him her magic and risk the fall of Equestria.
"So what's it going to be, Princess?" Tirek grinned at the alicorn
'Damn, what should I do? I don't want to give up my magic or risk my friends lives. C'mon Twilight, Think! Think!' Twilight mentally screamed.
Her friends looked at Twilight shouted and begging not to give up her magic.
"Don't do it, Twilight!" Rainbow Dash shouted
"We aren't worth it." Fluttershy added. Discord felt a pang in his heart when Fluttershy spoke those words, how could he had let this happened. If had not listen to this monster's words and hurt not only his dear friends but poor Fluttershy, none of this would had happened. He sighed and gazed at his best friend and reformer.
"Oh, But you are Fluttershy; You are the pony who taught me that friendship is magic. I had magic and friendship, and now; I have either." He said as he covered his eyes in shame and sadness, for once in a 1000 years, the draconequues felt truly sorry for his actions.
"ENOUGH!!! I WANT AN ANSWER!! AND I WANT IT NOW!!!" Tirek roared. Twilight stared at her friends and noticed something odd, a light was shone within the orbs in different color. What was that just now? Did it connect with her key or something? Her eyes gave off a rainbow colored shine and quickly vanish. She looked at her friends and then Tirek, knowing now what to do. She has made her decision.
"I will give you magic. In exchange for my friends." She announced. This shocked her friends greatly, what was she thinking? Tirek comply with her wish by snapping his fingers, releasing her friends. All except one, Discord; the one who caused all this. Twilight gazed at the sadden draconequues. She begin to think about his release, he did apologize to Fluttershy and looks regretful. However, none of this would had happened if he didn't side with Tirek. But, like everypony else; He too was a victim of the monster. She glared at Tirek and stomped her hoof.
"All of my friends." She demanded. This surprised both Tirek and Discord. Did she really consider him a friend, even after the horrible things he had done. Tirek growled and pointed at the draconequues who still had a look of shame.
"After what he has done to you. You still call him a friend?!" Tirek asked. She glared, she didn't care about that anymore. Discord was a victim as much as anypony. Sure, he is a jerk and had annoyed her plenty of times. But; he is a friend in his own way. He had persuaded her that friendship was more important than being a Princess. He also gave her and Cadence great time; sure he messed up their day. However, they manage to bond together either way. Plus, he had helped her with the book and the Tree of Harmony. If it wasn't for him, Equestria wouldn't be here right now.
"Release Him!" She scrutinized. Tirek signed and snaps his fingers, setting the draconequues free. He landed on the ground with the thud and looked at Twilight sincerity. He thanked her for letting him go and turned to his best friend, Fluttershy.
"I'm sorry." He apologized
"I know." She replied.
"Your turn." Tirek said as he turned to the alicorn princess and begin to suck out of her magic. Twilight felt like her life force was being drained. She struggled to get up, but felt too weak and fell. Tirek grew not only in power but size as well. He grew taller and taller, loving the surge of magical power that he absorbed from the tiny princess. Twilight's eyes looked lifeless, she lazily gazed at her friends rushing to her aid.
"Twilight! What were you thinking?!" Spike asked. She weakly stood up and stared at the draconequues who gained her and her friends attention.
"Tirek tricked me into believing he could offer me something more valuable than friendship. But there is nothing worth more, I see that now. He lied when he said this medallion was given as a sign of gratitude and loyalty. But when I say that it is a sign of our true friendship, I am telling the truth" He confessed as he took off the medallion given to him from Tirek, And put it on Twilight to wear. The medallion then shimmered a rainbow color and felt new found energy returning to body. She looked at Discord with astonishment, could Discord be her key giver all this time?
"Ya think that might be the last one we need?" asked Applejack.
She wasn't sure, but right now. It could be their last hope. "We have to get to the chest." Twilight commanded. They all nodded and rush back to the Everfree forest where the Tree of Harmony and chest with five keys were residing. Twilight levitated her medallion towards the chest and just as she hoped, it changed into a key. She smiled and put the key into lock and looked at her friends with determination.
"Together, I think we have to do this together." Twilight said. They all proceed to grab their respective keys and push them into the lock with a turn. The tree begin to glow along with mane six respective cutie marks that are engraved into the tree. Suddenly, beams of light begin to surround the girls and they felt a change happen. Their appearances had changed a little, their manes have gotten bigger and more colorful and their cutie marks have spread to their hooves. Twilight smiled as they both flew up and faced the towering centaur known as Tirek.
Tirek noticed this glared, how did they get back up? This is impossible. He growled and shot a blast of dark magic to the rainbow powered ponies. Unfortunately for the centaur, it didn't do any damage whatsoever. In fact, they're being protected by some kind of magical barrier. Tirek growled and glared at the rainbow ponies.
"How is this possible?! YOU HAVE NO MAGIC!!" Tirek roared.
"You're wrong Tirek, I had may given you my alicorn magic. But I carry within me the most powerful magic of all." She replied with a smirk. First a lavender beam of magic attack him, then a pink one and soon Tirek was bombed by white, blue, orange and yellow beams of magic that fused into one. The centaur screamed in pain as he is vastly loosing power, not only returning to Tartarus but reverting to his original form. The mane 6 flew up in a ball of magic and spread across Equestria, returning magic to their rightful owners. To Shining Armor, Derpy and the Wonderbolts . To the ponies of Appleloosa and finally the Princesses of Equestria; Celestia, Luna and Cadence. The mane six flew down to the Tree of Harmony and watched the magic go back to the tree. They all cheered in victory over the defeat of Tirek, however, Their victory was short lived. The tree begin to hum violently and turned black.
"W-What's going on?!" Twilight asked in a terrified voice. The ground begin to shake and then crack. Jade colored magic begin to erupt from the ground and black lightning strike the earth.
"Ah don't get it. Why is tha' tree actin' like this?" Applejack asked as she was trying to gain her balance from the shaking earth.
"I believe I can answer that question Applejack." said elegant voice. The mane six looked around to find Celestia with Luna, Cadence, Discord and Spike. Twilight watched the ponies of Ponyville run and fly around in absolute terror. It's really scaring, what could this mean?
"Princess, what's going on? Why's the tree going all crazy?" asked Rainbow Dash. Celestia sighed and gained a sadden look as she gazed at her precious ponies. She took a deep breath and looked at the mane six. "It means. The end of the world."
They all gasped in horror. All of them except Luna, Cadence and Discord. Twilight was visibly shaking and scared to death, the end of the world. But how? They had just got done beating Tirek from taking it over and it's going to end.
"H-How?! W-Why?! I don't understand" Twilight asked, tears threating to come down her face. Discord sighed and decided to explain.
"Negative magic Twilight, It has been without the elements so long that negative magic begin to build up within the tree and spread throughout the planet. The tree is connected to planet and it's main core, without the tree holding the elements in place, the whole planet falls apart eventually." He explained.
"B-B-But we gave the elements back to the tree. Surely, this will all stop right?" Rarity hoped.
Discord shook his head sadly. "No Rarity, It's too late. The negative magic has already spread in Equus. There is absolute no stopping it, ever since Celestia and Luna took the elements to stop me; they had already sealed their fates. When I saw the warning signs, I thought it wasn't something to worry about. That since you guys put the elements back into the tree. Things would go back to normal and Equus would not be in danger. However, I was wrong."
The mane six and the royal sisters looked down in sadness. Twilight let her tears fall off her face. She looked at her former teacher with hopeless eyes.
"I'm sorry Twilight, this is all my fault." Celestia told her as her voice finally broke and cried. Her sister, Luna went to console her while the rest looked down in despair. There was nothing they could really do.
A Whole New World We Live In
Prolog part two
Celestia sighed as she finished crying, she prayed that she could save her subjects somehow. However, she had failed them instead. 'what kind of princess am I?' Watching the ponies screaming and running around in terror did not help her nerves. She needed a miracle, anything that would save her subjects.
Meanwhile, in another universe. An otherworldly being is currently watching what's going on in Equus. The being sighed in sadness as he watched the Princess cry and plead for a miracle. He couldn't just leave them there and watch their home destroyed, along with their lives. He knew he had to do something about it. Although it could cause some chaos, he has no choice.
"Father? Are you watching them again?" Asked a bird-plane like creature. This creature is known as Latios, the dux of the Hoenn region and a very strong Pokémon. Among him are 5 other dux Pokémon in the room. Mewtwo, the dux of Kanto, Celebi; the dux of Johto, Darkrai; the dux of Sinnoh, Cobalion; the dux of Unova and last but not least, Diancie; the dux of Kalos. Dux Pokémon are leaders of an entire region and give out orders to their fellow subjects. The one called father is known as Arceus, he is the Pokémon God and creator of the Pokémon World. Right now, the God stood before a dark blue crystal ball, gazing at the dying world that is Equus. He needed to help them, but how was he going to do it is the question.
"Yes my child, I am. I cannot let them burn and watch their world be destroyed. " He replied. However, a certain Pokémon of Kanto was not on board with idea of helping them.
"Father. You're not thinking of bringing those equines to the Pokémon world are you?" He asked. "You do know mother would be angry that you just decide to dump an all new species into our world without consulting her" The alpha Pokémon sighed, Yes he was well aware that Xerneas would be angry that he just decided to drop them here. However, he has no choice but to go against this time. He nods at the Pokémon and smiles.
"Yes I am well aware Mewtwo, But I will not let them die; especially if I can do something about it. My Dux 6 it has come to my attention that you will be living among new species of the world Equus. I know you all are hesitant about them, especially since the Great Pokémon Rebellion War that happen over 2000 years ago. But I assure, this can work and we will all live together in peace and harmony" He announced. His eyes glowed gold and he begin to contact all of Equus world's leaders, mainly Celestia.
Celestia is pacing back and forth, muttering on how she failed. The geysers of magic continued and the black lightning scorched the ground. She prayed for a miracle to happen, for a miracle to come to her and save her precious ponies. Anypony would be great right now, if they had the power to save her subjects. However, her prayers have been answered when she heard a voice in her head.
"Hello Princess of Equestria" said a deep voice in the sun monarch's head. She looked around, thinking she had heard somepony. 'Had my prayers been answer.' She questioned. The ponies noticed this and looked at her with confusion.
"Is there something wrong sister?" asked Luna. Celestia however ignored her and looked around 'Who are you? What's going on?' She demanded. Arceus chuckled lightly and smiled 'Relax, It is telepathy. Ahem, My name is Arceus: Pokémon God and creator of my universe. I understand that your world is being destroyed due to the negative magic of the elements am I correct?' He asked. This surprised Celestia, an being who calls himself a god and knows who she is? What is a Pokémon anyway?
'Arceus? Pokémon God?' Celestia question.
'Yes, I know you have a lot of questions right now. But there is no time to explain, Celestia. I am here to save not only your subjects and yourself. But other beings of Equus as well. Do you accept my help?' Arceus said. Celestia, thought about it hard; this Arceus was something she hadn't heard of in her life. Can she truly trust him and help her out of this situation? What choice does she have right now? If it's to save everypony, she'll do it.
'I accept your assistance Arceus, However; I do demand questions later. So what is the plan?' asked Celestia.
'Well, I won't be able to save your planet since it is beyond repair. But I can save your subjects and others too.' Arceus stated as his eyes glowed more. Celestia noticed something in the corner of her eye and found a portal, about seven of them in total.
"What in tarnation!?" Applejack called out as another portal appeared behind her. Twilight went to go investigate one of the portals by placing her hoof into on them. It sink right as her eyes widen, she quickly retracted her hoof and a small smile appeared on her face. Could this be a way out.
'I placed portals all over Equus and contacted the world leaders about it. Right they should be getting into the portals along with their subjects to save themselves. What I want you to do is too contact your subjects and explain the situation. Then, tell them to only pack the essentials and walk through the portals. Once all of Equus's inhabitants are in the Hall of Legends, I will explain everything. Good luck.' Arceus finished as he cut off the telepathic link. Celestia looked at the screaming and running ponies, then she turn her head to the portals; she nodded and made a determination face. She is going to save her subjects no matter what.
"Princess? Why are there some many portals appearing in Ponyville?" asked Fluttershy.
"I was just speaking too an otherworldly being by the name of Arceus, I assume he is from an different world or possibly a universe. He is the caused of the portals you see and has agreed to help us all." Celestia replied. Luna eyes widen but then gained a suspicious look, while mane six cheered in happiness, Luna didn't trust this Arceus pony at all. Why did he want to help them? What will happened if they have reached this new world? So many questions begin to fill up the princess of night's head.
"Sister! What were you thinking?! We do not know who this Arceus is? How does he know about our world? How does he know about us?!" She demanded.
"That's a very good question, Princess Luna" Twilight added. She was grateful for Arceus trying to save her and her friends, but why is he doing it? What will he gain from it? How will this affect her and her friends?
Celestia sighed and looked at her sister in the eyes, she nodded and said "Do not fret Luna, he agreed to answer my questions when we get all of our subjects into portal. I promise sister, we will get some answers." Celestia promised. Luna sighed, her sister can be bit of block-head from time to time, but she trust her judgment. She looked at her elder sister and smiled. "Alright. But we better have answers and they better be good."
"Alright everypony, You heard me exactly; Arceus has agreed to help us. He wants us to pack up only the essentials and jump into the portals. I want you all to go pack up and get each of your families here. I'll contact all of Equestria and tell them the exact same thing. Is that clear?!" Celestia ordered. They all nodded with determination upon their faces, Celestia smiled at that and nodded back. "Alright! Go!" The mane six spread out and begin to pack up.
"Uh, Auntie Celestia? How are we suppose to contact all of Equestria?" asked Cadence. The sun monarch smirked and pointed at the Spirit of Chaos. "We have a reality warping Spirit of Chaos with us. That's how." Discord smirked and nodded.
"Leave it to me." He said.
Rainbow Dash flew as fast as she can, she flew up to her floating home, searching for Scootaloo. "Hey Squirt! Ya up here? Squirt!?" She called out. The reason why she is up there in the face was because of Tirek, she was afraid that bastard would get his stupid claws on her. It was also a good thing that they managed to beat him. Her thoughts were interrupted by the call of her name.
"Rainbow Dash! Rainbow Dash!" said a young voice.
Rainbow Dash turned her head to see the orange filly running up to her with a worried expression on her face. "Scootaloo!" Rainbow Dash shouted out as she grabbed the filly and held her close. "Ah, you scared me squirt!"
"Rainbow? What's going on?" Asked Scootaloo
"I got good news and bad news." She sighed, should she tell her? what will she say? and how will it affect her. Rainbow took a deep breath and looked Scootaloo straight in the eye.
"Well Squirt. Bad news is that our world is dying, but the good news is we are going to a new one. I don't know much about the details. You'll have to ask the princesses. C'mon, let's go pack up" Rainbow Dash said. Scootaloo could only look at the ground for a while, and then back at her big sister. She nodded and ran after her to go pack up.
Applejack is currently packing with her family, already told them on what is going on and what's happening. "Big Mac, Remember to pack the essentials" She said. Big Mac nodded, packing up everything in a box. He quickly looked around, made sure nopony was looking and put the smarty pants doll that was originally Twilight's into the box. He smiled happily and closed it. Applebloom had already finished packing and now the apple family is waiting for Granny Smith.
"Tsk. Granny Smith ain't done yet?" Asked the orange mare.
"Eeyup" Big Mac replied.
"Hold yer horses. Ah'm ready. Ah'm ready." She called out as she has a big backpack filled with pots and pans at her side. Along with a jar of zap apple jam.
Celestia eyes began to glow white as Discord cast a spectral image that loomed over Equestria and sound spell. "Ready when you are Princess." The spirit of chaos called out. She nodded and begin her speech.
"ATTENTION ALL PONIES OF EQUESTRIA!!! THIS IS PRINCESS CELESTIA! IF YOU ARE WONDERING WHY THERE IS MAGIC ERUPTING FROM THE GROUND AND BLACK LIGHTNING RAINING FROM THE SKY, IT IS BECAUSE OUR WORLD IS ENDING!!! NOW DO NOT BE AFRAID!! DO YOU SEE THOSE PORTALS? THOSE PORTALS WILL LEAD US TO A NEW WORLD THAT WE SHALL LIVE IN!!! AN ALLY NAMED ARCEUS HAS AGREED TO HELP US!! WHAT I WANT YOU ALL TO DO IS TO PACK UP THE ESSENTIALS AND GO INTO THE PORTAL!!! WE DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG UNTIL THIS WORLD WILL EXPLODE!! BUT YOU HAVE NO TIME TO WASTE!! SO PLEASE, MAKE IT QUICK!! GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL!!!" Celestia announced. Once she was done, the spectral image of herself faded and she saw everypony packing up their things, grabbing their children and leaping through the portals.
"There, That should do it." Celestia said. She turned and saw the mane 6 along with the cutie mark crusaders and their parents running up to her. She gazed at their belongings, some brought blankets, pots and pans, books, toys, pets and even cake. She chuckled, leave it to Pinkie Pie to pack up cake. She also noticed that some of the sad looks that some of ponies have on their faces, mainly the Cutie Mark Crusaders.
"Ah can't believe that the world is ending.." Applebloom said.
"Yeah and we will leave behind our world. The one where we all grew up in." Sweetie Belle added.
"And jumping into a new one to live in." Scootaloo finished. The mane six, Rarity's parents, Discord and the princesses all look at them in sadness. There was a moment of silence around them all, but that silence was cut off from the trio of girls who jumped up in excitement.
"CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!!! WORLD JUMPERS!!! YAY!!!" The girls shouted out in unison. The ponies all sweat dropped at how quickly they were able to change their mood.
"Well, they're taking it well." Twilight said sarcastically. After what just transpired, she looked at her friends and then her fellow princesses. "Is anypony ready?" asked Twilight.
They all nodded and leaped into the portal. When they finally stepped in, they noticed that they are in a very spacious white room with a golden double door. She took her surroundings and notices many species were also in the room such as, Deer, Dragons, Minotaur, Griffins, Buffalo, Zebras, Diamond Dogs and even Changelings. That surprised Twilight that they were allowed into this new world.
"So... they're here as well huh?" Twilight said to herself as she narrowed her eyes upon the insect like creatures. Her thoughts however were cut off by the shout from Pinkie Pie.
"Check it out girls!" Pinkie said as she pointed to the portals that lead them to spacious white room had a clear view of Ponyville. Most of the houses were nothing but rubble and the ground was beyond repair. She turned to her left and watched the last ponies jumping into the white room with their families. She then turned back to portal and noticed the loud humming becoming louder.
"It's about to blow." Luna announced. Everyone in the room watch as their home planet rapidly crumbled away and exploded in the blinding flash of light. They all covered their eyes from the light of the explosion, after it died down. They were staring at nothing but space dust, dust of their homeland.
"Goodbye Planet Equus." Celestia said as a tear escaped her eye, however all of the sadness in the room quickly vanished as the golden double doors open. Celebi walked out of the door and smiled sincerely at the many species. She analyzed them all and nodded to herself. 'Alright that's all of them. No one is missing and no one got left behind. Good' She thought.
"Hello, I am Celebi; Guardian of Time. This is the Hall of Legends, and Welcome to the Pokémon World." She introduced.
A Whole New World We Live In
Chapter 1
Celebi gazed at the many species that looked at her with total confusion, amazement and if she isn't mistaken; fear. Many of them wanted run from her or attack her out of fear. She sighed and might as well assured them that this isn't a trap or anything. She gave her best smile and took a deep breath.
"Relax everyone, I am not a threat. We are only trying to help" She announced.
This seemed to relax most of them and she sighed in relief. She didn't want a war breaking loose, her thoughts were interrupted by someone or should she say somepony calling her name. She turned to see Twilight Sparkle, hesitantly walking up to her. She smiled and had to contain herself from hugging her. She was simply an adorable looking equine. The princess of friendship walked right up to the dux Pokémon and looked at her with slight fear and amazement.
"Umm, excuse me Ms. Celebi? I was thinking, don't you think that it is a little crowded in here to live in. Wh-where are the beds and libraries?" Asked Twilight.
"YEAH! IT'S TOO DAMN CROWDED!!" Yelled out a green dragon.
Celebi could only giggle and then soon, her giggles turned to laughter. "L-L-Hahaha. Live in here?!? Oh no no no no no! You won't be living in here. Hahahaha" Celebi laughed.
This confused everyone in the room. What did she mean not live in here, sure it was crowded; but where else could they live. She wasn't thinking about kicking them out was she? Arceus did say they could live here. Just what did she mean. Celestia decided to speak her words to the Voice of the Forest. She walked up to her and stood next to Twilight and gave a small smile towards the Pokémon.
"Celebi? Was it? A being by the name Arceus stated that he could help us. What exactly did he mean by that?" She asked.
"Oh, you mean Father? Yes; that is why I came out here. He wants an audience with the world leaders of Equus. Once you enter this room behind me. All your questions will be answered by him. That I promise, now excuse I have an announcement to make" Celebi instructed. She floated towards the crowd and smiled at them
"Attention please! Father would like to see the world leaders of Equus. That means, leaders of Equestria, the Griffin Empire, Crystal Empire, Changeling Kingdom, Dragon Kingdom, Zebra Tribe, Diamond Dog Village, Buffalo Tribe, Minotaur Kingdom, City of Thicket and yes even Ponyville. All you need to do is just enter this door and I promise, all your questions will be answered. Well, I'll be in there myself. See you both there" She announced and disappeared in flash.
"Well, mind as well get this started" Luna said as she walked up to the two princesses, following her behind was Cadence. Celestia opened the door with her magic and stepped into the room. There she noticed the room was a bit smaller than the previous one, it also was gold in colored. She looked around and noticed there were six beings that are currently staring at her and the rest of the world leaders. One of them she recognized as Celebi, the other next to her on her right was strange bipedal creature of lavender color. His eyes locked cold onto her as if he was waiting for her to attack or mess up. She looked to see a dark figure across from Celebi, he reminded her of Nightmare Moon. He gazed right back at her and wave nonchalantly at her. She nodded and noticed a blue-gray bird like creature who smiled at her and another creature who seemed to be made out of diamonds. 'These are some odd, yet interesting creatures' She thought. She then looked at the last one who is more focused on other world leaders than anyone else. Celestia took a good look at him and blushed a tiny bit, she didn't want to admit it but he is quite handsome. For some odd reason, she wants to rub her hooves onto his fur chest; her thoughts were interrupted by a familiar voice behind her.
"Well, Well, Well, If it isn't little miss sunshine" said a creature with wicked voice. She turned around with surprise on her face to see her archrival, Chrysalis; Queen of the Changelings. What was she doing here and what is she planning, she locked eyes with her cat-like green ones and glared a bit.
"Chrysalis" Celestia spoke. Twilight looked up and saw the changeling queen, she glared at bug-like changeling along with her sister in law.
"Chrysalis, what are you doing here?" Cadence demanded.
Chrysalis rolled her eyes at the unnecessary hostility and answered their questions. " Why I am here because I'm a world leader too. Hello, Changeling Kingdom?" Cadence and Twilight raised a brow in suspicion, while Celestia simply nodded and whispered "You better be on your best behavior" Chrysalis, again just rolled her eyes and scoffed. She wasn't going to start anything, she is entirely grateful that this Arceus has saved her precious subjects. She wasn't going to just take his assistance and suddenly attack them, she wasn't stupid. All of their thoughts came to halt when a blinding flash of light happened.
"Ugh! I'll be blind if this becomes a often thing!" The dragon king, Tavorth groaned in annoyance. The flash died out and stood there, was a large goat-like creature. He had a golden ring around his body, long tail and white all over except for a few parts which are blackish gray. He looked extremely menacing and loomed over the leaders. Some of them, shook and scared to move while others stood their ground; preparing for what could happen. However, no violence came as Arceus chuckled and looked at the leaders of Equus.
"Calm yourselves, I am no threat. I am Arceus; God of all Pokémon and Creator of this universe. I am sure you have plenty of question am I correct" Celestia was sensing some serious deja vu from all this. She cleared her throat and walked up to the Pokémon God, she smiled and bowed her head.
"It is pleased to meet you Arceus, I would like to say thank you for saving my subjects and the others from the destruction of our planet. And you are indeed correct, I do some questions. How do you know of Equus and what are Pokémon?" asked the sun monarch. Arceus nodded and smiled. He cleared his throat and began his explanation. Twilight wished she had her notepad to take down notes, she sighed, realizing it was destroyed along with her home planet. 'Guess I'll just have to stick with keeping the information in my head. Dammit'
"Pokémon are mystical creatures that possess great power. There are 721 known species of Pokémon in the entire world, but I am pretty sure there are more waiting to be discovered. Most Pokémon will resemble animals, however; some resemble plants, humans, objects and even enigmatic appearances." Arceus explained.
King Aspen, the king of the City of Thicken; looked surprised about the mention powers "Powers? What kind of powers Pokémon possess?"
"Right. Pokémon have many powers from breathing fire to controlling time, space and antimatter" He replied in a serious tone. This shocked everyone but the dux Pokémon in the room. Pokémon can control space and time? The dark figure in the room known as Darkrai chuckled and looked at them. "As obvious as it is. I can tell you are quite bewilder; Yes, we Pokémon can do many things. Celebi is a time traveler, Mewtwo is one of the strongest Pokémon ever and practically the god of all psychic type Pokémon. And me? I, well...I'm a Pokémon of dreams and nightmares....mostly nightmares." He said with a hint of sadness. This interest Luna, She looked at him and could not believe there was another dream caster that had the same problems of the darkness as she once did.
'He...He's just like me.....' Luna thought.
Cadence noticed that he also mention types, a psychic type. "Wait a second? Psychic? You mean somepony who can read minds or see into the future?!" She asked. Celebi chuckled at this and nodded at the question.
"Well, you are half right. Psychics can read minds and see into future, but some of them can shape shift, turn invisible, use telekinesis, warp reality and even can make black holes" She then heard a gasp from the last part and had to reassure them that it won't happen. "Now onto typing and abilities. There are 18 types in total: Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, Dragon, Ice, Ghost, Dark, Fairy, Psychic, Rock, Ground, Steel, Flying, Normal, Fighting, Bug and Poison. Each type has either one weakness and multiple weakness. For example, fire is weak to water and ground. Now if you were a fire and ground type, you weakness will still be water but it hurt a lot if you get hit. Abilities are what help Pokémon either during battle or everyday life. My ability, Natural Cure can heal are status condition if I rest myself for a while; status conditions are effects that happen to your body if you get hit by an Pokémon attack or eat bad food. These status conditions are burn, freeze, paralysis, poison, sleep and confusion. But don't worry, we have medicine to heal all of those conditions so do not worry" Celebi finished.
They all nodded and absorbed in all the information, as soon as they were done; Celestia still had two more questions "That's very useful information; thank you. But you still didn't answer my question Arceus, How do you know of Equus and why are you doing all of this for us?"
"Yeah! And where do live? Ya haven't explain that part yet" Asked Empress Victoria, the leader of the Griffin Empire.
Arceus looked at her and nodded, he then summoned a dark blue crystal ball and begin to explain once more. "It's simple really, the reason how I know is this crystal ball. I had watched you all since the beginning, your universe is quite interesting to watch and of course one of my favorites. What you don't know however, is that our universes are actually next to each other, in a sense we were like neighbors. While I looked out for my universe, I also kept an eye on this one. It's sad to see it go, such a harmonious and peaceful place erased due to the Tree of Harmory. I told Starswirl that this would happened, he did not believe me."
This was shock to the four princesses, especially Twilight, "Wait?! You knew Starswirl?!"
"Yes, but that's for another time my dear, Now as for why I'm doing this. One; I couldn't just watch you all die now can I? And two; well I am ready to trust new species upon my universe again. And I am sure all of us can live in harmony" He smiled. Celestia, however was unsure; sure knew most of her ponies would gladly accept this, but the other species might be hesitant about it. She can only hoped that no war would break out. Mewtwo glared when Arceus spoke those words, he didn't trust these creatures one bit, not since the humans; how could he trust anything that isn't a Pokémon.
"I still don't trust these creatures. But I will help you all. However, if you try to attack my subjects; I will be force to eliminate you" Mewtwo declared. This made a few leaders shudder, something about him screamed powerful. However, this caused a certain Sword of Justice to speak up.
"Mewtwo, no need to scare them. It is true that when can be cautious; but I'm sure that they mean no threat" He spoke calmly.
Mewtwo growled and glared at the Pokémon and spoke "That is because you are too soft, Cobalion. If you ease up to them, They could easily walk all over you. Just like the humans long ago"
"Well, Do you see any humans around?" asked Cobalion.
"No, Bu-"
"Do you. see any humans around. Mewtwo?" Cobalion asked once more, as he gave off one of his special glares. Mewtwo growled and answered the Sword of Justice leader. "No" Cobalion nodded and turn his gaze to the world leaders.
"Forgive us, He is just worried for his subjects and being cautious." He spoke softly.
"It is alright, We understand. " Luna replied.
Arceus cleared his throat and gained the attention of everyone in the room. "Now then, Lastly; Living Arrangements. As Twilight asked if you all were going to live in that room. No, you all will be living in separate villages, towns and cities in the Pokémon world. Towns such Post Treasure Town from Unova and Arborville from Johto. There are plenty more places where that came from. Now then, the meeting is finally over and you can inform of your subjects of what is going on. Once you are ready. You should see a big silver door, exit there and you will see the Dux 6 waiting for you; they will give you living arrangements from there. Alright now, you are dismissed."
The world leaders nodded and headed towards the door, Celestia however stopped and turned to the Sword of Justice. The Pokémon noticed the Equestrian ruler was staring him. He could only a raise a brow, "Hello there?" Celestia slightly blushed out of embarrassment.
"R-Right, I came here to thank you for defending us back against Mewtwo. I can understand that you are slightly cautious around us and want to protect your subjects"
"Yes. While he blew off the handle like that, threaten you and the others. I can't blame him, at least entirely. It's not my place to speak about his past. But because of what the humans had done to him and his fellow Pokémon over 2000 years ago. He has a case of PTSD. " He replied. Celestia gasped, she's heard of PTSD before; especially since the changeling attack that happened in Canterlot over a year ago. But she has never heard of it happened because of a human. What happened with humans and Pokémon all those years ago.
" I see...well, I do hope he opens up and see we are not a threatening species. Though I hope war doesn't break out between the inhabitants of Equus and the Pokémon world." She hoped.
Cobalion nodded and then turned to leave, "Oh. You should come down to Eindoak Town. It's nice and peaceful, you'll love it" He said with a small smile. She nodded, trying force a blush away. She turned to leave, only to notice her sister standing at the doorway.
"Ah, there you are sister. Are you done flirting?" She smirked.
"Flirting? Don't be silly Luna. C'mon, We need to inform our subjects." She quickly said. Luna just rolled her eyes and followed her.
'I may had been gone 1000 years sister; but I am not stupid' Luna thought.
Celestia begin her speech with her fellow ponies, she informed them of Pokémon, what they are, where are they going to live and what is going on. Some begin to look uneasy about the idea, while others were overjoyed not only, living in a new place; but seeing other Pokémon. She smiled and reassured them that everything would be alright, at least she hoped. But she couldn't lie about it either, she was a bit eager to meet other Pokémon. She looked to her right and noticed most of the other world leaders and their subjects were gone and out meeting with the Dux 6. She looked over her ponies and smiled at them.
"Is everypony ready to go?" She asked.
"YES!" They announced in joy in their voices. Celestia could only chuckled and allowed Luna and Cadence to lead them to the doors.
"Yes. So am I. Though, I hope this will be a very good thing" She said to herself as she followed them all.
A Whole New World We Live In
Chapter 2
Celestia and the rest of her subjects, along with the world leaders stood outside of the Hall of Legends. There they notice the Dux 6 standing next to each with portals behind them. Celestia also noticed that, she could see some different towns and cities in the portal. 6 portals and 9 different species. How will they divide this to make these living arrangements fair, or even? She waited in silence, ready for the Pokémon to give out the living arrangements of what species go where. She just hope it's beneficial for them all, especially for her ponies.
Twilight on the other hand was getting worried. Not because of where she'll live, but she hasn't seen her Brother and her parents since the Tirek incident. She prayed they didn't suffer the same fate Equus did, she begin to look around and noticed her brother, Shining Armor is currently chatting with some of the Crystal Empire royal guard. She smiled and ran up to him, giving him a giant big hug from the side.
"BBBFF! YOU'RE OKAY!!" Shouted Twilight, which startled the Prince of the Crystal Empire. Shining Armor turned around to see his little sister hugging him from behind. It warmed his heart to know that his little sister didn't get caught in that explosion. Though, he knew his sister and wife would be safe, but it still worried him. He smiled and hugged her back, nuzzling her cheek affectionately. He looked around her to see if she was hurt, but found no injuries. He sighed in relief and pat her head.
"Hey Twiley, Ya scared me half to death. I knew deep down you were safe, but I still couldn't help but be worried about you" Said Shining Armor.
Twilight sheepishly rubbed the back of head in embarrassment and blushed "I know I know. But I am a big mare now. I do appreciate you looking out for me though. What about Mom and Dad? Are they okay?" She asked. Shining pointed to the now approaching Nightlight and Twilight Velvet with happy expressions on their faces.
"Twilight Sparkle!" Her mother called and grabbed her in a full bear-like hug. Twilight felt like her life was squeezing right out of her body.
Velvet swung her around chanting 'Thank Celestia'. Feeling like her bones were going to turn to dust, Twilight wheezed and try to pry her mother off, but to no avail. It took Shining, Nightlight, Spike and eventually Cadence to pry the mare of the Princess of Friendship. She comically feel on the ground and begin to catch her breath. She lazily look at her mother, who had an embarrassing smile on her face. She couldn't help but chuckle at this.
"Twilight, You okay?" Asked Spike as he helped her out.
"Yes, Spike. I'm fine. Just mom here showing how much she loves me" She replied with a roll of her eyes but smiled. Velvet chuckled and nuzzled her, along with her husband, Nightlight who was nuzzling her other cheek. She sighed and smiled at her daughter.
"Well, when your daughter is a princess who goes on dangerous adventures from time to time, can you really blame your mother?" She asked. Twilight shook her head in response and smiled, hugging them both. She was happy that her whole family is safe and sound, however her thoughts were interrupted by the clearing of throats from the Dux 6. The inhabitants of Equus, cease their chattering and gazed upon the 6 legendary Pokémon that is going to decide where they will be staying. Mewtwo, surprisingly; was the first to speak up. He floated towards the crowd and looked at them all.
"Minotaur will come with me. You will be starting your new lives in the Kanto region. I am your new leader, if I give you an order you follow it. No backstabbing, No talk back and no fights among my nation or subjects. If you manage to follow these rules, I can see all of us getting along. Also...I....I want to apologize for scaring you all back there." He muttered the last part, though they had heard him loud and clear. He still will be cautious around them and keep an eye on them, for now. Silver Horn, the leader of the Minotaur Kingdom stepped up and looked at psychic Pokémon in the eye. To say he wasn't afraid was understatement.
"Alright, Now listen up. I don't care if your stronger than me. But no one will boss around my people! I will agree to live in your nation and I will also promise not to attack your subjects as long as they don't attack me or my people. BUT I WON'T LET YOU WALK ALL OVER US!!" He roared into the Pokémon. To say the least, everybody was completely shock, especially the other dux pokemon; rarely anyone stood against Mewtwo like that. Silence went all around the area, the tension was so thick you could psycho cut it in half. Mewtwo just stared at the minotaur and gave him a small smirk.
"Alright, I will not. However, like I said before. If you try anything nefarious; I will eliminate you" Mewtwo warned, He ignored Silver Horn and turned his attention to his subjects.
"In the Kanto region. There are a few places you can start your life in. Rota Town is the place that I reside in. It is a peaceful town that is north of Cameron Palace. There are many other places too live in Kanto, but I will not go through the list. You will all have to see yourselves. Now then, follow me into the portal and I will get you all settled up" He announced as he walked into portal with the Silver Horn and the Minotaur following him behind.
There was silence once again until Celebi broke it with a clearing of her throat. She nervously chuckled and rubbed the back of head looking at the crowd sheepishly.
"Well, that was a thing...that happened. Heheheh. Alright, guess I'm up. Deer and Changelings shall live in my nation, Johto. We are all about the forest so I figured you would all love to be around nature." Celebi said.
King Aspen nodded at this and smiled. He was happy that he wouldn't be living with those annoying minotaur. But then, he and his fellow deer would have to live with the changelings. He know about the pesky bug-like creatures, how they feed off the love of the ones close to you. He narrowed his eyes at the changeling queen, upset that he had to put his subjects in danger by living with her.
"Do not worry King Aspen, You and subjects will be living in Arborville it's a town located in a big forest. The houses are in the trees and it is quite peaceful there, I am sure that you and your fellow subjects will love it there. As for the changelings, you will be starting anew in Greenfield Town. It is described as one the most beautiful places in Johto. It has a lot of love to give that damn near endless, so don't worry about starvation. Grassy fields to run around, warm winds and a beautiful sky. Might even go there myself for a vacation" She explained as she smiled at the last part.
Chrysalis smirked at this, a place that gives out endless love. Now she doesn't have to worry about feeding her subjects or worry about them starving, she looked around and noticed most of them had a look of relief. She rolled her eyes and scoffed, at least she won't be attacking nopony anymore. Plus, with free homes and endless love energy, she is greatly satisfied.
"Thank you Celebi for this wonder hospitality" Chrysalis thanked.
"Indeed, this is most generous of you" King Aspen added. Celebi smiled and headed towards to the portal, with the changelings and deer following her. Latios, the dux of Hoenn took in the Zebra and Griffins with too Alto Mare and Fortree City . Empress Victoria and Lady Zera along with griffins and zebra followed the eon Pokémon into.
Darkrai looked at the slowly decreasing crowd and now only stood buffalo, dragons, ponies and diamond dogs. He decided to choose the dragons and buffalo to start their new lives in the Sinnoh region.
"You will be living in two places in Sinnoh. Alamos Town for the dragons and for the buffalos, you'll be staying in Snowpoint City. Sinnoh is a great and adventurous nation. I am sure you and your families will enjoy this. Now then, come along." Darkrai said. Like before, said inhabitants followed Darkrai into the portal, getting ready to start their new lives. Twilight wondered when it'll be their turn, she also wondered if said place that her and her friends will either be too cold or too hot. Will it be a friendly environment? Is there a library? So many questions ran through her mind. Her thoughts were interrupted by an orange hoof on her shoulder, she looked to see her side to see Applejack with a concern look on her face.
"You alright there, sugarcube?" Asked the farm mare.
"Yes. Just a little nervous" Twilight replied with a nervous smile. Suddenly, out of nowhere; Pinkie popped into view between them and begin to speak.
"Well duh you're nervous! I mean this is a whole new world we will live in! Hey! I just said the title of the story! Heheheh! Anyways! You're super nervacited about meeting new Pokémon and scared of confrontation! But don't worry, it'll be like the first time you came to Ponyville all those years ago. But this time, your friends will be with you; Me, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Spike, Rainbow Dash and even Discord!" She said all in one breath. Twilight decided to ignore the whole 'title of the story' thing she said and nodded at what Pinkie said afterwards. She's right, she isn't alone in this; It will be like going to Ponyville all over again and this time; she has her friends. She put on a determined face, preparing for her and her friends living arrangements.
"Alright I'll make this quick and simple. Ponies will be coming with me and Diamond Dogs will go with Princess Diancie. You ponies will be living in Post Treasure Town and Eindoak Town. I heard of Ponyville from time to time from father, I understand that you lost your home and everything you had work for. But if you need anything, you more then welcome to contact me or the other Swords of Justice. Since you all will be living in my region; Unova. I will treat you all the same amount of respect and love as I do to my other subjects. You ponies, despite appearances are no different than that. Alright; Princess Diancie take it from here. They're all yours now." She nodded and begin her speech and where will the Diamond Dogs will be living, which he knew it was going to be Avugnon Town. The ponies begin to pick up their belongings and followed the leader of the Swords of Justice into the portal. It was dark at first but then suddenly they found themselves on a dirt road with three paths. One path to the left and the other to the right, while one is straight up ahead.
"Straight down is Post Treasure Town, On the left is Eindoak Town and the right leads to Pokemon City and Floccesy Town. " Cobalion directed. "Now to wait for Virizion and Terrakion to show up and we can finally get started."
"No need to wait Cobalion, we're here" said a feminine voice. The ponies turned to see a large green deer-like creature, followed by a bulky looking creature with large horns. He gave the ponies a friendly smile and nod, while Virizion simply gave them a wave.
"Everyone, These are my teammates and friends. Virizion and Terrakion" Cobalion introduced.
Celestia looked at Virizion with a hint of what could be described as jealously, but mostly curiosity. She walked up to the female Sword of Justice and introduced herself.
'I wonder what's her real relationship with Cobalion?' thought Celestia.
"Hello there, I am Princess Celestia and this is my Sister, Luna" She introduced as she tilt her head to her little sister. Virizion smiled at the two princesses. "As you already know, I am Virizion and this is Terrakion'
"Howdy!" Terrakion said in joy. "It's nice to meet cha!"
"Charmed" Luna replied with a smile.
Twilight and Cadence decided to introduced themselves as well, along with Discord and Shining Armor. After introductions were over, Cobalion cleared his throat to gain their attention. "Ahem, If you want to live Eindoak Town, come with me. If you want to live Floccesy Town and Pokémon City, follow Terrakion. Finally, If you want to live in Post Treasure Town; follow Virizion. There are currently 1050 of you, if we bring you all into one location; it'll become way too crowded. So we need to divide you all, so you know what to do. If you want to live in said locations go to one of us that will take you there. Is that alright Terrakion? Virizion?" Asked Cobalion
"Sure thing! You can count on me" Replied Terrakion
"Of course, I will make sure they are given nice cozy homes" She smiled
"Right, We better get going now."
Twilight saw Cadence, Shining Armor, her Mother and Father, Celestia, Luna and many other ponies go to the leader of the Swords of Justice. She walked up to Shining Armor and patted him on the side to gain his attention.
"You better send letters BBBFF!" She smirked.
"I should be saying that! And you make sure to send letters to Mom and Dad too, you know how they worry" He replied with a knowing chuckle. She chuckled and nodded with that, she took one last look of Cobalion's group and waved them off. They begin to leave for their adventure to Eindoak Town. She turned to Terrakion who had already begin to leave with his group. She only recognized a few ponies in his group; Braeburn who is Applejack's cousin and Sapphire Shores; the pony of pop; one of Rarity's idols. She then turned to Virizion who is currently analyzing the crowd. After looking at the crowd, she smiled and nodded to herself; happy with the results.
"Okay, now there are 300 of you, still a little much. But what can you do? Alright everyone, follow me" Virizion instructed them as she lead them forwards. After 15 minutes of walking and chatting, they stopped to find themselves in front of a large gate, guarded by two Chestnaughts. The area was surrounded by tall wooden logs, most likely to protect them from outside threats. Virizion walked up to the two Chestnaughts and begin to talk to them.
"Goz! Mez! It is so good to see you two!" She smiled.
"Lady Virizion? What're you doing here? And who and what are they?" Asked Mez.
"They are creatures from another world called ponies, they are here to live among us. Do not fret, they're harmless and kind" Virizion assured. Goz looked at them and noticed most of them carrying their belongings or had babies around their arms. He look at the sad, hungry looks they had. Some of them even look irritated, must be due to waiting so long. He sighed and nodded to Virizion and gave them a sympathetic smile.
"Alright. Mez! Open the gate"
"Right Bro" Mez begin to open the gate by pulling on the handles. After the gate was fully opened, the ponies can see the view of the town.
'Look at all those Pokémon, I can't wait to see what's it really like in there' Thought Twilight.
"Welcome to Post Treasure Town, Follow me and I shall give you the tour." She lead the ponies through and most of the Pokémon inhabit there stopped and stared, some shrugged and went back to do their daily activities and others just simply ignored them as if it was an everyday occurrence. Virizion began the tour and started to point various buildings and shops.
"Okay there's the homes you'll be staying in once I get everything situated." Virizion said as the ponies looked at the homes. They were about the same size as the ones back in Ponyville. They even have little gardens and backyards attached to them. Twilight smiled, liking the looks of the houses already.
"There's the City Hall of course, And then there's the Pokémon Center. That's where you'll need to go if you have an medical emergency." Virizion informed. This gained a certain nurse's attention. The tour continued as they seen Spinda's Cafe which is much like Sugar Cube Corner. Pinkie smiled at this as she begin plan to get a job there.
"That's the Pokemon Mart. That's where you buy berries, foods and other things. Basically shopping" Virizion said next. The ponies gained a confused look, thinking that berries were the only thing they will have to eat around here. Virizion noticed their confusion and begin to explain that there are other foods in town, such as Apple Woods. This gained the attention of the Apple family.
'Apple Woods?! I'm gonna have to check that out soon' Thought Applejack.
Virizion had showed them the School, Pelipper Post Office, Kangaskhan Storage , Kecleon Shop, Magnezone Police Station, Beauty Salon, Slowbro Ramen Stand, Lilligant Flower Shop, Cofagrigus Gold, Makuhita Dojo, Swanna Inn, Gurdurr Carpentry, Krookorok Raffle and finally the Pokemon Library. That had gained Twilight's attention the most, she would have to visit there and read anything she would need to know about this world and Pokémon. She was so excited, she could barely contain herself, however her thoughts were interrupted when she noticed she and the crowd of ponies had stopped at a stage with a stand and microphone.
"Alright everyone. I want you to wait here while I go get the mayor; We are going to have ourselves a town meeting" She smiled.
A Whole New World We Live In
Chapter 3
The ponies waited outside for Virizion to go grab the mayor. Most of the ponies were thinking about what the mayor could possibly be like. What if he is a nice mayor or a cruel one. What would he looked like compare to most of the Pokemon they have seen today. Their thoughts came to a halt when Virizion came to the stand, followed by a Slowking. The Slowking walked behind the Sword of Justice with his arms behind his back. He took a look at the crowd of ponies who stared at him with big adorable eyes. He noticed some of them had horns or wings, and one of them had both. He even saw what appeared to be a baby purple dragon and a creature with a mismatch of different animal parts.
'Strange yet adorable creatures' The Slowking thought.
"Zephyr!" The Slowking called out. An Xatu suddenly appeared via teleportation, startling most of the ponies present. He looked at them and then turned to the Slowking and gave him a nod of acknowledgment.
"Yes Sir? May I assist you?"
"Bring in all of the town's folks. We are going to have ourselves a meeting" He commanded. Zephyr nodded at this and disappeared with teleportation once again. About 10 minutes later, Pokemon from all over town begin to come around and join the crowd of ponies. Some of the ponies were hesitant and scared, others smiled and begin to have friendly chats with the Pokemon. The Slowking smiled at this and begin to clear his throat to gain of the attention of the chattering crowd.
"Attention everyone. Attention everyone. For those who don't know who I am, which is the ponies of course. My name is Lancelot, I am the mayor of this town and make sure things are kept up and running. Virizion had told me about what had happened to your home planet, and for that I am terribly sorry. But I can assure you that this town will feel home soon. Now my fellow Pokemon, what creatures you see before you are ponies. I don't know much about them, but they will be living among us. They will soon be your friend, family member and possibly even future lover." He chuckled at the last part, seeing a few ponies and Pokemon blushing at the thought. Some, however were grumbling at the thought of an inter species relationship. He shook his head in shame of that.
'They had only been here for an hour and twenty minutes and there is already racism growing?!' He thought.
"I expect you Pokemon will treat the ponies with utmost respect and love. As you would do with any other fellow Pokemon. They're not just creatures from another planet. They are our friends and family, that's it" He told them. Some of them looked pissed, while most of them looked even more eager to make friends with them. He scanned the crowd once again and nod to himself.
"Alright, now I am aware that there was a mayor in your town? Ponyville was it?" He asked Virizion
"Yes" She replied.
"Right. I believe you all have some questions about the ponies? Correct? Well, that is why I decide to let one of them stand up here and answer them for you all." He said.
The ponies begin to look at each other, wondering who should go up there. Their questions had been answered when a certain lavender princess smiled and climbed up the stand to look at the crowd. It was hard to believe that this is going to be her new home. She hoped to learn a lot from the place and the inhabitants in it. She sighed and decided to introduce herself to the crowd.
"For those who don't know me. I am a Twilight Sparkle; and I am a princess." She introduced. The Pokemon gasped in shocked, even Virizion and Lancelot.
"You're a princess?!" Asked a Kangaskhan.
Twilight blushed and nodded "Yup, I am a princess. In my world. There are four princesses in total. Princess Celestia who raises the sun.
Princess Luna who raises the moon. Princess Cadence, my sister in law is the Princess of Love and me? Well I haven't figured out what kind of Princess I am" She said sadly. Her friends and even Discord felt her pain, Virizion noticed this and walked up to comfort her.
"I am sure you will know what kind of princess you are." She smiled.
"But how?...I did everything as a princess. I even-" Twilight was cut off by Virizion hoof to her muzzle. She looked at her hoof and then back at the Pokemon. Virizion gave the pony a warm smile and looked at the crowd.
"Twilight? What do you see here?" She asked.
Twilight scanned the crowd of ponies and Pokemon for an answer. She kept looking, trying to figure out what was she suppose to be seeing. Sighing to herself, she gave the Pokemon a simple answer.
"Well I see ponies, Pokemon, baby dragon and Spirit of Chaos"
Virizion chuckled at her answer like a mother would when her child would say something obvious. She shook her head no and gave the crowd a small smile.
"Yes. They're are Pokemon, ponies, dragon and Spirit of Chaos. But that's not what I meant. Twilight, I don't know much about you; but you are loosing sight of what's truly important. I am sure that you didn't get to be a princess on your own. But now that you have become a princess, you are starting to loose sight on what's important, become self-centered. And one day, you'll end up just like the humans long ago." Virizion warned.
Her eyes widen in pure shock when she heard this. She was slowly becoming one of them? It was true that some time ago that she was indeed transformed into a human by body. But to be slowly becoming one by heart and mind?! It terrified her. Not all humans were bad. This she knew, and she knew that Virizion knows as well. But she has heard of the unnecessary wars and bloodshed that has happened in human history. How self-centered and cruel they can be, leaving their friends in the dark. That scared her even most; loosing her friends for good was a big nightmare for her. Discord proved that.
"I know you want to feel special. Possibly wanting to do something like those other three princesses you had mention. But Twilight, my friend; never forget this. Simply being a princess will not make everyone accept you, everyone's acceptance is what gets you there. Never forget your friends." Virizion lectured.
Her friends walked up to the stage and hugged her. She then looked at her friends and smiled, they had made into a princess. She wouldn't have gotten this far because of them. Now, she knew what Virizion meant. Friendship is more important than some silly title of power and now she knows what kind of princess she is.
"Virizion. I know what kind of princess I am. The princess of friendship. And it is my duty to spread friendship throughout Unova and the Pokemon world." She declared. The ponies and Pokemon cheered in joy when they heard, Virizion and Lancelot just simply smiled and nodded. Rainbow Dash smirked at the crowd and begin to speak.
"Now I am sure you want some questions right? Well go right ahead and ask away" She said.
"Yeah. Why do some of you have horns or wings and the princess has both?" Asked a Spinda.
Rarity decided to take over this question and answered them "Well, you see there are three types of ponies in Equestria. Earth ponies who have a connection to the land. Pegasi are the ponies with wing, they help with the weather and clear the skies."
"Yeah! Maybe someday I could clear the skies for ya if ya like" Rainbow Dash said to the crowd. They smiled and wanted to know more, which was pretty obvious to the mane 6.
"And last but not least there is unicorns who perform magic." Rarity said as she levitated the microphone as a demonstration which shocked most of the psychic type Pokemon in the crowd. Lancelot walked up to examine the microphone that was now surrounded in blue aura. He then looked at the source of where the magic was coming from.
"I see. So only unicorns and Twilight can perform magic? It's quite similar to the psychic types like myself." He analyzed.
Rarity smiled and then shook her head "Well darling, You're half right. The 3 princesses Twilight had previously had mention can use magic. That evil brute, Tirek can use magic as well. And finally, Discord our...uh...friend can use magic with a snap of a talon. He may look evil, but he is a friend."
Discord smiled warmly and looked at the crowd. "Yes, I am 100% reformed. I used to be a 'villain' a long time ago causing chaos and disharmony for my own amusement." This somewhat scared not only the Pokemon, but the ponies as well. Seeing this, the Spirit of Chaos quickly tried to calm their nerves.
"Now hold on everyone, I am no longer evil. I am a prankster and kind of troll. So you will expect some chocolate rain and cotton candy clouds from time to time" Discord said as he gave them a friendly grin. The mane six glared at him for suggesting that and was about to protest until the Pokemon started to cheer.
"Huh?" The girls said in unison.
"You can create chocolate rain?" A Wurmple said
"And cotton candy clouds too?!" Said a shiny Treecko
Discord chuckled and produce a small cotton candy cloud that rained chocolate milk. He levitate it towards the Treecko and Wurmple.
Wasting no time, the two Pokemon begin to munch on the delicious treat. Pinkie, however was jealous and gave Discord a wanting look. He gave her a smile and wink, telling her that he will make her one later. Pokemon then begin to question more about the ponies. Subjects like, cutie marks, what was Equestria like, the princesses and many other topics. After what seem to be a long explanation, the town meeting is coming to an end and Lancelot decided to come up.
"Can the mayor of Ponyville please come up to the stage" He called out. A mare with a tan coat, silver mane and tail trotted up to the stand and smiled at them and then at the mayor.
"I know you lost your job by default. From the explosion of your home planet. I have decided; would you like to be mayor with me?" He asked as he offered her his claw.
Mayor Mare was shocked about this. Two mayors working in one town seemed fun, but how were they going to do that. She thought hard about this and looked at the ponies. The population is big and she does need a job now, she looked back at the Slowking who was giving her a kind smile. She grabbed his claw and shook it.
"Mr. Lancelot, You got yourself a new partner" She smiled.
Lancelot nodded and looked at the crowd "Do you hear that citizens? Now there are two mayors in town. This is because we need to keep up with the now growing population. It will be a lot of work" He said.
"But we can assure you that we will get our jobs done. Running this alone is no easy task; especially since they're different species." Mayor Mare finishes. Lancelot nodded at this and cleared his throat.
"Right. Now then. Town meeting is now officially over. Everypony. I want you all to go to the city hall and register for a certificate of being an official citizen of Post Treasure Town. Next you will receive P3000 poke. That's our currency in the Pokemon world. This should be enough to buy furniture and other things you would want for your homes. Next you will get a map of the town, then a gold bar which is the equivalent of P12,000. Sell that and store your money into the bank. Or simply keep to gain something even more, it is your choice. Last you will get keys to your houses, a pokebag so you can store in some of your belongings in case you want to travel or visit somewhere and 3 oran berries. The berries are just treats for you all and a welcome to Post Treasure Town." He finished. Before the ponies could leave to the city hall, Lancelot halt them since he forgot one last thing.
"Oh! I almost forgot! For those who had lost their businesses due to the explosion. Stay in the city hall after you are done. You can trade up your gold bar to start your business right here in Post Treasure Town. Also, get ready for a festival tonight. To honor and welcome the ponies of our town!"
Everyone cheered at that and soon, Lancelot's eyes saw nothing but pink. He looked up to see a pink pony with a pink mane. He knew she is one of Twilight's friends. He looked at her and can tell she is very exciting, probably about the festival that will be happening tonight. He used his psychic powers to levitate the party pony off of him and looked at her.
"Can I help you?" He asked.
"YesYesYesYesYesYesYouCan!MynameisPinkiePieandIampartyplannerfromponyville.AtleastIwasapartyplannerIdunnoifIamornotOh!waitIamanywaysI-" Pinkie's rant was cut off by Lancelot placing his claw on the mare's muzzle.
"Can you please speak in clear sentences. I barely understood a word you said" Lancelot said with an hint of annoyance.
"Oh! Sorry. I was saying, can I planned the party! PLEASE!!!" Pinkie asked. Lancelot thought about it, it would be nice to have some help with festival and she said she was a party planner.
"Sure thing Pinkie. But after I get everyone situated Ok? Alright everyone! Follow me to the city hall and I will help all of you out" Lancelot announced.

3 Hours Later
******************
It's been 3 hours since the meeting and everypony is now situated in their new homes. Applejack walked through the town with her seven friends and noticed a few things. She see ponies starting their own business after the Gurdurr carpentry build it up for them. She also noticed Pokemon and ponies are talking and laughing together. She even see some of them living together, which kind of surprised her. She stopped at the middle of the town and turned to her friends.
"It's crazy huh? We defeat Tirek. That darn tree goes haywire and our world explodes. Then we get save by this God-like creature and start to live in this world we don't know about. I am not saying I am not grateful. Trust me, I am more the grateful. It's just so much that has happened." Applejack said.
"Yeah. I know what you mean. Now I'll never be a wonderbolt" Rainbow Dash said in sadness.
Fluttershy comforted her "Hey now, don't say that Rainbow. I am sure you'll be a wonderbolt." Rainbow just sighed and flapped up looking down at her friends with a forced smile. Sure, she was upset that her chances of her reaching her dreams were slim but she wasn't going to let that bring her down.
"Well girls, I gotta go find me a job. Plus, gotta prepare for the festival. See you all soon" With that Rainbow Dash flew off to find herself a job. Her and Scootaloo manage to get a place together along with their pet, Tank. She was going to invite Fluttershy, but she is living with Pinkie, Gummy and Angel. Rarity now has a place with her mom, dad and little sister. Applejack didn't want a normal house and wanted to live on the farm like in Sweet Apple Acres. As for Twilight, She wasn't looking for a home right now. Already loosing the tree home back in her world, no house felt like home to her.
"Well, I better go find that Apple Woods place. I can't wait to grab a bite of a delicious apple. See ya'll later." Applejack said as she trotted off to woods. Twilight nodded to her and went to go the library to learn more about Pokemon. The others went their separate ways to either get jobs and see the town.
Applejack walked through the dirt path and noticed the forest up ahead. She smiled and put away her map, happy to see some apples again.
"Yeehaw! Time for some apple buckin'!" Applejack cheered as she ran into the forest. Not aware of the potential dangers that lurk within. She looked around, scanning the apples. Some apples looked bigger than the average apple and others looked huge, bigger than her head. She panted like a dog when she gazed at the humongous apples.
"It's like I died and went to Valhalla"
Pinkie walked into Spinda's cafe to get herself a job in bakery. She looked around the cafe saw Pokemon and ponies sitting together. She smiled at that, knowing everyone is friends with each other. She walked up to the counter and sat on the stool with a huge grin on her face. She waited for the bartender to come up to her. There she saw him, walking up to her and smiling.
"Hiya, Welcome to Spinda's Cafe! How can I help you?" He greeted with a smile.
"Oh right! I heard about this place from many Pokemon when I was moving in. So I decided to check it out. I really love this and wanted to know if it'll be alright if I can be a baker here. I can cook up some good cupcakes or even cake! Have you tried cake before? It's really good and delicious. " She said.
The Spinda chuckled and looked at the party pony "Have you ever tried a PokePuff? It's absolutely delicious."
"No. Is it like cake or-"Her sentence was interrupted by the Spinda shoving the tasty treat in her mouth. She begin to chew the delicious confection in her mouth. It tasted way better than cake or even cupcakes. It was the most sweetest little cake she had ever tasted.
"THIS?! THIS is a POKEPUFF?!" She shouted, gaining some attention from the other Pokemon and ponies who are in the cafe. The Spinda chuckled once again and nodded. He already liked this pony and is definitely his favorite.
"Yes. That is a pokepuff! I see you want to work here? Hmm. I guess I could use a waitress." He smiled. "But only because you're my favorite. You will start tomorrow"
"REALLY?!" She shouted once again, jumping over the counter and hugging the Pokemon in a big hug. "Oh thank you! thank you! thank you! thank you!"
The Spinda smiled and patted the pink pony on the back. "Hey, no problem. Only for our new friends and family. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Mr. Alonsa."
"Mr. Alushi huh? I am Pinkie Pie!" She introduced.
"I know who you are Pinkie. I saw what happened after the Mayor said festival" Mr. Alonsa.
"Oh you saw that? Heh heh. OH NO! I forgot! I gotta plan that party! See you later Mr. Alooka!" Pinkie said as she zoomed out of the cafe. Mr. Alonsa just shook his head and smiled at the exit the Pinkie zoomed out of. "Heh heh. That pony is something else."
A Whole New World We Live In
Chapter 4
Twilight walked through the dirt path of Post Treasure Town with Spike sitting on her back. She levitated the town map to her face, trying to find the town's library. She scanned the map, searching an image of a library and the label under it. She smiled once she found what she was looking for and started to head towards her destination.
"Uh, Twilight? Where are we going?" Asked Spike.
"We're going to the Pokemon Library, Spike." She replied as she levitated her town map into her new bag that she received from the mayor.
Spike groaned at this. Of course they were going to the library. When it came to new information of a place or subject, she cannot turn it away and must learn everything about it. Spike looked at the excited pony and sighed at this, he knew he would be in there for hours.
"I should of known you would go there. Can't we just explore the town first?" Spike asked with hope. The lavender princess rolled her eyes and kept walking towards her destination.
"But Spike, Don't you want to learn about their culture, what they do? Or even the types they had mention?!" Twilight asked with pleading eyes. Spike just groaned at this. Twilight noticed this and sighed, she couldn't keep him in there for hours. She also noticed that he looked very annoyed at the idea.
"Tell you what Spike, since you have been a very good dragon lately. I'll let you go see the town, while I go study more about Pokemon?" She decided.
"Really?! You mean it?!" Asked Spike, pretty excited to see this place for himself.
Twilight giggled and nodded, and just like that; Spike hopped off of Twilight's back and sprinted off to whatever destination Spike was headed. Twilight giggled and shook her head, the dragon never ceased to amaze her. She turned her head and noticed that she arrived at the library. It was a tall crystal blue building, similar the crystal castle only not made out of crystals. Twilight entered the library and noticed it was books everywhere. The interior was also a blue color and the books were neatly shelved in alphabetical order. She looked at the librarian who was a Alakazam. The Alakazam smiled and walked up to the princess of friendship.
"Hello, welcome to the Pokemon Library"
Applejack trotted through the apple forest, admiring the delicious apples that hung from the tree. She smiled and walked up to one of them, inspecting it. She took a sniff and poked it a few times to see if is some of kind of apple Pokemon. Satisfied with her results, she took a bite and her eyes immediately went wide eyed. The taste of the apple was much sweeter than the apples from Sweet Apple Acres, but she'll never admit that. Granny Smith would bopped her one good just for uttering those words right out of her mouth.
"Woo Wee! These apples are mighty delicious!" Applejack commented. She looked around and noticed some different apples. Some apple was about as big as her head and the other apples were about the size as her brother, Big Macintosh. Applejack's eyes widen even more from the size of the apples. She shook her head and continued walking, deciding to go back to the big apples later.
"Wow. Them apples are HUGE!! Now, all I need is to find me a perfect tree and buck me some apples." She grinned as she begin her search. Little did she know she was being watched. Three Beedrill were in the trees, glaring at the intruder. The three Beedrill nodded to each other and headed towards the orange mare, ready to give her a lesson.
The apple mare smiled and kept walking down the pathway in the forest. She had an distinct feeling she was being followed. Little did she know, her suspicious were correct. Suddenly, the gang of Beedrill blocked the apple farmer's path. Applejack looked at the three Pokemon in confusion and glared at them for a bit. Something didn't feel right with them and this whole situation, Applejack prepared herself for the worse.
"Well...You're an odd creature? What kind of Pokemon are you?" Asked the middle Beedrill which she assumed is the leader. He was green colored, while his lackeys were yellow. That confused the element of honesty.
'Why do they have different colors? That's weird' She thought.
"Hey! I'm talking to you weird deformed Pokemon thing." The Beedrill insulted.
"Mah name is Applejack, and I am pony! Didn't ya'll heard the news about us movin' in?" She asked with a hint of irritation in her voice. The Beedrill growled at this and then begin to smirk, the other Beedrill begin to circle around her like Sharpedo ready to attack their pray.
"Well I'm Sting! And this Needle and Toxic! And we're the Beedrill gang! We own this place and this is our turf! But see you are new here. I'll give you a headstart!" Sting grinned. Toxic and Needle giggled grimly with the lead Beedrill. Applejack begin to chuckle and looked up to the shiny Pokemon and grinned.
"Better yet! I'll do this!" She said as she reared her hind legs and gave a powerful buck to Toxic who was right behind. She heard a satisfying thud and a groaned of pain. Using this as her chance, she sprinted further down the dirt path of the forest.
"AFTER HER!!" Sting shouted as he and his lackeys chased after the running mare.
Rainbow Dash walked through the town and sighed. She looked through job to job, but couldn't find one that said "her". Scootaloo had gone with her friends doing Celestia knows what. She sighed and shook her head, those three are probably causing some harmless trouble as she speak. However, it didn't cheer her up. The prismatic mare was still down that her chances of becoming a wonderbolt was pretty slim and it was all that tree's fault.
"Ugh! Stupid Tree! Blowing up my home like that! What the buck!" Rainbow cursed. She gazed at the ponies and Pokemon enjoying each others company. It was crazy too her, they find the last key; which Discord had all along. They defeat Tirek and the world decided to blow up on them. This Arceus guy saved them all and brought them all into this world. Such a lot has happened lately, and it is not like she hated the place. She just misses her dreams and her home.
"Ugh...What now?"
"You could always work in the guild?" Suggested an disembodied voice. She looked around, searching for the voice.
"Over here" The voice called. She looked to her left and saw a shiny Gallade with an orange tattered scarf around his neck eating ramen at the Slowbro Ramen Stand. She walked up to the Pokemon and sat on one of the pink stools and looked at the Gallade while he ate his food.
"You talking to me?" Asked Rainbow Dash.
The Gallade finished his ramen and nodded. He cleaned his mouth with a napkin and looked at the pony "Yup. The names Gene and I was thinking maybe you should have a rescue team." He suggested.
Rainbow Dash was confused at this, guild and rescue team. Just what in the world of Pokemon is he talking about?
"I'm Rainbow Dash. And rescue team? guild? What do you mean?" Asked the prismatic mare.
Gene chuckled and begin his explanation. "Well. I mean, in the guild called the Wigglytuff Guild . It's a first class guild for exploration teams to train to become first rate."
It sounded boring at first to the element of loyalty, but she was willing to know more.
"What are exploration teams? And what do they do? Please tell me it ain't anything boring!" Rainbow pleaded.
Gene shook his head and walked out of the ramen stand, not before paying for his meal. He sat his change onto the counter for the Slowbro to come pick it up. He smiled to the pony and walked down the dirt path up ahead.
"Weeell. I was gonna go home and meet up with my fiancee. But, I guess I could show you what rescue teams are and what they do. And to answer your last question. No, they are NOT boring" He grinned. The pony grinned as well and followed the Gallade.
"Next stop. Wigglytuff Guild" Gene said.
Fluttershy was currently in a daycare office talking to a Chansey. The place she is in is called Chansey's Day Care. The daycare takes watches baby Pokemon and hatch eggs for others. Fluttershy thought it was a great idea to watch over a few Pokemon and eggs. It will give her some time to get to know the many species of them.
"And that's why I want the job. Mrs Lucky Egg. I mean...if that's ok with you....." Fluttershy said.
Mrs. Lucky Egg thought it through and looked at the yellow pegasus. She seemed to be a kind and loving mare who will take good care of the little ones. She narrowed her eyes onto the pony one more and then gave her a huge smile.
"Very well then dear! You got the job! I can see that you'll do just fine. However, if you hurt those little ones or lied to me. You'll get a double slap so hard it will be pony effective!" She threaten.
Fluttershy nodded with a nervous smile, Mrs Lucky Egg sighed a breath of relief and hugged the yellow mare.
"Welcome to the Daycare Fluttershy!"
Applejack ran as fast as her hooves could carry her, but the Beedrill were gaining on her. She grunted and ran faster but stopped at a dead which was a tree filled with golden apples. Applejack was amazed by the color and look of the dazzling apples. She would had taken a bite of one if she wasn't being chased by those pesky Pokemon.
"Poison Sting!" Sting shouted out as he shot out a poison needle out of his mouth. Applejack barely had enough time to dodge the attack, unfortunately it hit her leg and she fell down in a thud. Suddenly, her hind leg started to become purple.
"M-Mah leg?..Wh-What did ya do to me?!" Demanded the apple farmer with a glare.
The three Beedrill laughed at the pained element of honesty and hovered over her watching her groaning and fading in and out of consciousness.
"It's Poison Sting. It's an attack that has a 30% chance of poisoning any target." Sting informed.
"Hahaha! That's for hitting me, ya stupid ponyta!" Toxic comment with a grin.
Applejack growled at the damn Beedrill who are now pointing their spear like stingers towards her. She winced in pain and closed her eyes waiting for the impact. There was no way she could defend herself now.
"It's over pony! Ready Boys! TRIPLE POISON JAB!!!" Sting shouted out as the gang of Beedrill charged towards the pained pony. She had her eyes closed, ready for the impact to come.
"THUNDERBOLT!!" A voice shouted out as a bolt of lightning shot out and struck the gang of Beedrill. Sting growled as an arrival of Luxray appeared in front of the pony. Applejack looked at the Pokemon and noticed he had a black ranger hat and a badge with "Ranger of Apple Forest" engraved into it. He glared at the three Beedrill who only coward in fear, well only two of them except for Sting who just growled at the Luxray.
"You again?!" Sting asked.
"I thought I told you buzzing bastards to stay out of the forest? Don't you know you're trespassing private property? " He asked.
Applejack summoned some of her remaining strength and stood up woobly, must of been the effects of the poison sting. She glared at the Beedrill for attacking her just for being here. She then looked at the Luxray, which she assumed is the ranger of the forest. She knew how he felt about unwelcoming poachers on her farm.
"P-Pardon me sir? But who are ya?" Asked the apple mare.
The Luxray looked at her for a brief second and then moved his eyes to her purple leg. He shook his head and glared harder at the three Beedrill.
"You should just sit down and relax. Don't move too much. And my name? The name is Light and I'm the ranger of this forest." He introduced.
A Whole New World We Live In
Chapter 5

Applejack struggled to keep her eyes open, but the poison was beating her down. Her vision became even more blurry, as all she seen was a black and blue blur before passing out. Light noticed this and noticed the three Beedrill were aware of it as well, he growled and let out a few sparks in a warning. The Beedrill all backed away and growled at the defending Luxray.
"You were lucky this time!" Sting called out as he and his lackeys flew right out of the forest.
"And stay out!" He shouted as he stomped his paw on the ground. He turned around and saw the unconscious pony. He shook his head and placed the pony on his back.
"Attacking an innocent pony. Now that's just low. Even for them. Well, better get her to the cabin. Can't leave her here out the open like this" Light said as he begin his trip back home.
Rainbow Dash and Gene headed towards, what appeared to be a Wigglytuff building. She noticed it looked like an tent and there were steps that had reached the top. She grinned, happy that she doesn't need to climb up those stairs.
"It's up there. Let's go" Gene said.
Rainbow flew up to the entrance and only to stopped at a grate. She inspected but only could see darkness. This confused the prismatic mare, she then stepped onto the grate and loud voice could be heard that startled the mare.
"UNKNOWN FEET DETECTED!! UNKNOWN FEET DETECTED!!" Said a voice.
She looked around and then heard chuckling from the shiny Gallade. She glared at the giggling Pokemon, demanding an explanation. Gene smiled and finally calmed down his giggling fit.
"Ehem. Sorry, That was Potato. Odd name, yes. But he is the sentry of the guild. When you step onto that grate you are currently standing on, he identifies the feet...or in your case hooves. It's a way to know whose who, so no outlaws won't try to break in or sorts." He explained.
"Ah. Okay..How long do I stand here?" Asked the element of loyalty.
"Meh. Not long" He replied. However, further questions were interrupt by the voice of another voice.
"WHOSE FEET IS IT?!" Asked a even louder voice.
Rainbow Dash and Gene had to cover their ears from the loud booming voice. Rainbow Dash felt like her head was spinning and was trying to regain her hearing again. She looked at the now recovering Gallade for answers once again.
"And that is Decibel. He is a Loudred. One of the loudest Pokemon in existence." Gene said.
"Can he be ANY louder?!" Rainbow Dash asked sarcastically.
"Unfortunately. Yes" He replied.
"IT IS FEET THAT BELONGS TO.....A PONY?!" Said Potato.
"FEET THAT BELONGS TO A PONY?! MUST BE THE NEWCOMERS!! SHE CAN COME IN!!" Decibel replied. There was a moment of silence, which was soon replaced by a clearing of the throat. A purple big mouthed creature with speakers for ears stepped out of the tent smiled at the prismatic mare and the Gallade.
"HI! I AM DECIBEL AND WELCOME TO THE WIGGLYTUFF GUILD!!!" He greeted!
Rainbow Dash and Gene's ear begin to ring once more.
"Alright! Alright! No need to yell" Rainbow said with irritation in her tone. Decibel smiled in embarrassment
Meanwhile in the library. Twilight had picked up a stack of books to learn all about Pokemon. Books such as, 'The History of Pokemon' 'Encyclopedia of Pokemon' 'Psychic Types and You' and 'Pokemon Evolution'. She smiled as she begin to read the first book, 'The History of Pokemon'.
"Yes! With this, I'll know enough about Pokemon. Though I am going to be here for a while. I wonder how my friends are doing?" She wondered.
The lavender princess sighed and continued to read, hoping that her friends would not cause too much trouble. Suddenly she heard a chair being moved beside her. She looked annoyed at first but then realized it's one of those Pokemon. It was a pink cat-like creature with long ears and a split tail. She was about only an inch shorter than her. She analyzed her more and noticed there was a fuchsia colored small gem on the center of her forehead.
"Hi! You must be the princess of your old world. Princess Twilight, was it?" Asked the Pokemon
"Uh, yes. But you can just call me Twilight" She replied with a smile.
"Alright. Twilight, You're probably wondering who am I. Well, My name is Aurora and I am a Espeon. I am also a librarian." She introduced.
The lavender alicorn nodded and noticed that the Espeon had levitated one of her books to her side. She also noticed that her eyes were glowing blue. This amazed Twilight, urging her to know more about psychic type Pokemon.
"I take it you're a psychic Pokemon?" Questioned Twilight.
"Yes. I also noticed from your horn that you are an unicorn and can cast magic. I have been wondering since that whole town meeting, what is the difference between magic and psychic powers?" She wondered.
Twilight thought about it as well, she had always wonder what was the difference between the two powers. And if she could replicate most of them. They both have the ability to levitate objects and teleport.
'What else can they do?' She thought.
"Well we can read minds, that's for sure" Aurora said with a giggle and a wink. This surprised Twilight, she had totally forgotten about that mind reading ability. She knew that unicorns have a spell for mind reading, but it takes forever to master. But Psychic Pokemon can do it just right off the bat.
"Well, I say that psychic and magic powers do have their similarities. However, there are differences" Twilight said.
"Really? Found any?" replied the Espeon.
"Hmmm...Well, I can see the powers through psychic energy is coming from the users mind, rather than a horn. It also looks more easier to cast. Unicorn or alicorn magic sometimes takes to time to do a spell, depending how advance or powerful the spell may be. For example: Time or mind reading spells would take minutes to charge or even hours. Plus, it drains most of our mana. Psychic energy doesn't seem to have any drawbacks." Twilight explained.
Aurora nodded and smiled at the princess's explanation and begin to add in her two cents.
"While you are right about how psychic energy comes from the mind. You are wrong on one thing. Psychic energy does have it drawbacks and weaknesses. Too much usage can cause severe damage to the brain or hurt others if not probably used. It can also leave the user drained if they use up too much pp or Power Points. Power Points are the energy that all Pokemon have that requires them to use moves. Once they use up all their moves, which is unlikely to happen; they use a move called Struggle which is another Pokemon move that every Pokemon naturally knows."Aurora explained.
Twilight nodded, taking all the information in. It seemed that Pokemon do have limitations, and are quite similar to the magic beings of Equestria.
"Tell you what. Why don't you come live with me, my brother and his best friend. We could learn a lot from each other." Aurora suggested.
The lavender princess thought about the idea, she could maybe learn how to harness psychic powers if it were possible. Plus, she and Spike had no place to live at the moment.
"Can....Can I think about it please?" Asked Twilight.
"Of course" Aurora replied with a kind smile.
Rarity's new Carousel Boutique had been built, with new adjustments. She added in couches, a television, magazine shelf for reading, and a workplace where she can design new clothes for the citizens. She had seen many Pokemon with different designs and had inspired her to make more clothes. The only problem was that she had no notepads to draw out her designs or even equipment to make new clothes. She had lost all of that when the planet exploded.
"How will I even begin? I have no equipment or no fabric! Nothing at all. Of all the terrible things that could happened! This is THE.WORST.POSSIBLE.THING!!" She said dramatically. Too bad she didn't have her fainting couch, otherwise this would had been appropriate. Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the door opening and footsteps. She turned to see a cream colored cat with purple fur on it's head, neck and tail. Next was a dog that looked like a poodle, it's fur was black and orange and had a kabuki trim to it. Rarity marveled at the color and the fur coat of the dog. Lastly she sees a green insect-like creature with a leafy hood and arms.
"Ummm...can I help you three?" asked the element of generosity.
The cat nodded and smiled at the white pony, she cleared her throat and begin. "Right, My name is Velvet, I am a Delcatty. These are my friends Kabuki the Furfrou and Seamstress the Leavanny. We heard that you're a fashionista. We heard from a couple of ponies that you used to own a store called the Carousel Boutique."
Rarity smiled and nodded. "I am Rarity or Miss Rarity if you prefer. And of course darling, at least it was going to be. You see? I have no new or old fabric. Most of my equipment is gone due to the world being destroyed." She finished with a sad sigh.
The three Pokemon walked up to her and each had a look of sympathy, they begin to console her; rubbing her back and telling her that it is alright and they understand. This surprised Rarity, how could they understand what she's going through.
"But how can you girls understand? You still have your world. Mine is destroy all because of a stupid tree" Rarity pouted.
Kabuki sighed and nodded "Yes. Our world is still intact. But our business isn't."
"What do you mean?" asked Rarity.
Seamstress growls in anger and stares at the floor. "We use to own a business that designs clothes for others called 'The String Shot'. We sell the best clothes for Pokemon everywhere. Scarves, jackets, shoes and even pants; we did them all. The business was our pride and joy; however it was burned down by that no good rotten Purugly."
The element of generosity figured that this Purugly was another Pokemon she didn't know about. But was rather shock that someone would just burn down someone's business. It was most certainly rude and just down right barbaric for her.
"Sweet Celestia! For whatever for darling?!" Asked Rarity.
Kabuki growled at the thought of the Purugly, but explained what had happened. "Around 3 years ago. As you know, we had a business called 'The String Shot'. However, we were rivals with another boutique called 'Ball of Yarn'. We were more successful and made a lot of poke. Though we had poke. We only cared about the designs of clothes we make and our customers. However, she became jealous and decided to copy our designs and stated that she made them first. That we stole her ideas and we were nothing but common jerks. As you can tell, that wasn't true. A huge argument erupted between our businesses and war happened. Not literal war, just a fashion war. Anyways, she eventually set our business a blaze and our glorious customers turned against us. We tried to bounce back, but we didn't have enough money to start a business in Pokemon City. So we just lived here ever since."
Rarity eyes widen at the story that was told to her. She couldn't believe how some Pokemon could be so cruel to each other. She knew how it felt having her hard work taken away from her. Remembering the incident that happened with Suri and Coco Pommel in Manehatten. She wrapped her hooves around the Furfrou and rubbed her back.
"There there darling, I know exactly how you feel about having your work stolen from you. I had that problem happened to me two weeks ago. But I am not trying to sound mean or anything, but why exactly did you come here?" Asked Rarity.
Velvet smiled sadly and looked at the pony "I hope you don't mind it. But if it's ok. Could we possibly work for you? We could find you new equipment to work with." She suggested.
"And new fabric!" Added Seamstress.
"And there can be grooming on the side. And who doesn't like a good grooming?!" Said Kabuki.
Velvet smiled and nodded at the pony. "The truth is Miss Rarity. We just want our dream back. Please....let's us work with you." tears streamed down the Delcatty's face. Rarity, now crying as well hugged the three Pokemon, trying to calm them down. She smiled and looked at them all in the eye.
"Darlings. Of course you can work here. Welcome to the Carousel Boutique." She said.
Velvet and her friends couldn't be anymore happier hearing those words.
Fluttershy walked down the road of the town, wanting to explore more of the place she'll be living in. It was happening so suddenly and normally she would shy away from these type of things. However, seeing the new inhabitants of the Pokemon world who express kindness and love, made her feel brave. Her thoughts about the world were interrupted by the sound of something falling on the ground. She ran over to the source of the sound only to find a dark alleyway. What she found in the alleyway was a Typhlosion on the ground with trash cans and a scooter on the ground. What she seen next was three Pokemon surrounding the poor fire type. A bulky looking Panda with a thin leaved shoot in it's mouth. The other Pokemon was a weasel looking creature with long sleeve like arms. The last one, who looked like the leader of the gang, he had on a green hood and his looks reminded her of a lizard. These three Pokemon were Scrafty, Pangoro and Mienshao.
"Please...you can have my Poke. Just don't hurt me." pleaded the Typhlosion.
The three Pokemon laughed at the fear emitting from the fire type and begin to step closer. The three intimidating Pokemon begin to crack their knuckles and grinned cruelly at the Typhlosion.
"Oh. We can't have that. You didn't give us your Poke quick enough! And that can make our pal Bancho even more angry" The Scrafty grinned as he pointed to angry Pangoro. Fluttershy glared at the three Pokemon, hurting the poor Typhlosion. Deciding that enough is enough, the yellow Pegasus stepped out of the shadows and let herself known.
"Hey! Knock it off you three! Leave him alone!" Fluttershy demanded. The trio of bullies looked at the element of kindness stalk towards them with a furious glare. The three bullies were stunned to find the pony stepping up to them to defend the Typhlosion.
"What do ya just say to me?!" Asked the Scrafty.
"I said. Leave him alone! Picking on an innocent Pokemon and trying to steal what belongs to him! That is wrong! No go away or I'll tell your mothers what you're doing." She said as she gave them the famous stare. The Pokemon quiver in fear and gulped, stepping back from the now flying Pegasus.
"Y-Y-You got lucky! Next time we meet. You'll be sorry!" The Scrafty declared as he and his goons ran off. Fluttershy sighed and turned to the down Typhlosion, helping him up. The fire type Pokemon winced in pain and looked at the yellow Pegasus and smiled at her.
"Thank you, for helping me back there. Those bullies been tormenting throughout my whole life." He said sadly.
"Who were they? If you don't mind me asking." Asked Fluttershy.
The Typhlosion grabbed his now beat-up scooter and sighed. "The leader's name is Hoodwink, the bulky one is Bancho and the girl is Ming. They're are bullies who lie, steal and beat other Pokemon to get what they want. They have been doing this since the school days."
"That's horrible! How could they!?" Fluttershy gasped.
"Yeah...by the way...I've been meaning to ask...wh-what's your name?" Asked the Typhlosion.
"Me?...Oh...I'm....Fluttershy" She said shyly while hiding her face.
"Fluttershy huh? I'm Firework...Yeah. I know...weird name for a guy. Heheheh" He said sheepishly with a hint of sadness.
Fluttershy flew up to the Typhlosion and smiled, putting a hoof on his paw. "I think it's a wonderful name"
Rainbow Dash walked in the tent with Gene examining everything in sight. She saw pictures of famous exploration teams and their accomplishments. She even saw Gene's old team, consisting of himself, a Sceptile named Konoha and a Bisharp named Proto. According to Decibel and Gene, they were one of the strongest teams in existence; however an incident that happened in Magma Cavern caused the team to split up. Rainbow asked what happened, but Gene didn't want to talk about it, saying it brings back awful memories.
She shrugged at this and continued following the Loudred down the hall. There, she sees a pink door with a Wigglytuff face on the front. The Loudred told Gene and Rainbow Dash to wait here while he gets the guild-master.
"Hey Gene?"
"Yeah Rainbow?"
"What's the guild-master like?" Asked the prismatic mare. Gene chuckled at this and recalled the memory of meeting the strange yet powerful Pokemon.
"Well, Mr. Kashu can be a bit naive and even easygoing. But he is one of the few Pokemon you do NOT want to anger" He explained with a chuckle. Remember that he had to learn that fact the hard way. Speaking of said Pokemon, Kashu revealed himself to the element of loyalty and the shiny Gallade. Accompanying with him is a Chatot
"Hello Pony! Welcome to the Wigglytuff Guild, I am Mr. Kashu but you can call me Kashu if you like. And this is my assistant Polly the Chatot" greeted the Wigglytuff.
"Hello." Also greeted the Chatot.
The Wigglytuff also noticed that Gene was standing there and gave him a friendly welcome. Gene nodded and smiled, the Gallade turned to Rainbow Dash.
"Hey Rainbow, I should get going now. Belle is probably worried right now. See ya!" He said as he teleported out of the guild. Rainbow Dash starred at the spot that Gene used to be and turned the Wigglytuff.
"Ah...So..you're one the many creatures who moved to the Pokemon world eh? I am terribly sorry for your planet's destruction." Mr. Kashu apologized.
"It's fine. I'll miss the place. Yeah. But this is my new home. Gotta get use to it" replied Rainbow Dash.
Polly and Mr. Kashu nodded and begin to walk deeper into the guild. "Come. We'll show you around the guild." Rainbow Dash followed the two Pokemon deeper into the guild. She had seen the mess hall that which the Chimecho named Echo cooks and prepare food. a training room where they can increased their skills. And rooms where the explores sleep in. To say that she was excited was an understatement.
"Wow. So you guys do missions from saving lives to retrieving ancient artifacts?! SO AWESOME! Sign me up! I wanna start an exploration team right now!" Rainbow said.
Mr. Kashu and Polly chuckled in amusement. It was nice to see someone excited about being part of the guild.
'I'll be as awesome and brave as Daring Do!' She squealed in delight.
"Now Rainbow Dash, You must know the morning cheer of the guild. Which are also the rules." Polly said. He cleared his throat and began.
"A ONE, A TWO...A ONE-TWO-THREE
ONE! DON'T SHIRK WORK!
TWO! RUN AWAY AND PAY!
THREE! SMILES GO FOR MILES!"
Rainbow Dash was greatly confused by the cheer. To her, it sounded like it came from a foal's book. She then noticed that Polly was gone. She looked around the area, trying to search for the Chatot. Mr. Kashu noticed this and decided to speak up.
"Polly went to go get the others."
"The others?"
"Yes. They're a friendly bunch. Ah! Here he is now with them." She turned to a Sunflora, Corphish, Bidoof, Chimecho, The same Loudred that she had met earlier and Polly. The Pokemon begin to surround her and greeted her in a friendly matter.
"Hey Hey! The name's Pete" Said the Corphish.
"Oh my gosh! It's so nice to meet you Rainbow Dash. I am Summer." The Sunflora greeted with a big smile that would put Pinkie to shame.
"I'm Echo. The Chimecho. I believe we already met once before." Introduced the Chimecho. The Bidoof walked up towards the rainbow mare and introduced himself as Bill. The Pokemon begin to ask her questions, like what was Equestria like or what is a cutie mark. After the questions were done, Mr Kashu gave Rainbow Dash a badge to symbolize that she is now a explorer. All she will need now is a name, which she is still working on and members. Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of laughter, but it didn't sound joyous. She flew towards the source the noise to find a Zangoose, Scyther and Sandslash pointing and laughing at a panting Latias.
"Wow! You fail so hard! You can't do a single Dragon Pulse?! and you rarely mastered Stored Power, which is very weak by the way" The Scyther teased.
"Shut up! I can do it! I'm just having some kinks!" Latias countered.
"Kinks?! Ha! You'll never be as strong and awesome as your brother. And not only that but you only know two attacks." The Zangoose taunted.
This pissed off Latias even more, she loved her brother without a doubt. But she can't stand to live under his shadow and Pokemon saying wishing that she was just like him or putting her down. She growled, trying not to let her tears threatening to fall out of her eyes. Rainbow was getting angry as well. This reminded of her bullies back in Cloudsdale, how that always call her Rainbow Crash.
'Those bastards! Who do they think they are?!' Rainbow thought.
"What's the matter Loseias?! Ya gonna cry?" taunted the Sandslash with a smirk.
Latias was about to interject until a certain cyan pony jumped in front of her, glaring at the three bullies. Latias was shocked to say the least, she didn't know what kind of creature she is. To her, it looked like some kind of weird looking Ponyta with a butt tattoo.
"What the hell is that?" Asked the Sandslash.
"Looks like some kind of weird looking Ponyta with a strange butt tattoo." replied the Zangoose.
Rainbow Dash ignored the comment and glared at the three Pokemon. "What's your problem?! Leave her alone!" She yelled.
"She is a loser and had failed the guild three times. She doesn't even have a rescue team because nobody wants to be around her. Only time Pokemon will be around her is when it's about her brother." The Scyther laughed.
Latias couldn't hold back the tears anymore and just let them fall. Rainbow noticed this and try her hardest not to punch the Pokemon then and there. She walked up towards them and gave them a fierce look that sad 'one more word and I'll bash your skull in'.
"You're wrong losers. There is one who wants be around her. And that is me! I'll be around and she'll be my friend!" Rainbow declared. This shocked the four Pokemon in the room.
'Does...Does she really mean that?' thought the eon Pokemon.
"Friend?! She only knows two attacks and can barely do one of them! She'll slow ya down!" Warned the Sandslash.
"I don't care! And it's not her setup that slows her down! It's you guys! Now beat it!" She roared. The three Pokemon just glared at the pony and left her and Latias in the room. Rainbow flew towards the Pokemon and lift her up. She smiled at Latias and wiped her tears out of her golden eyes.
"Hey, don't let those jerks get ya down! I know how it feels to be bullied and believe me. It sucks." Rainbow Dash said with a chuckle.
Latias looked down with a sad expression on her face.
"They always compare me to my brother. Saying that 'I'll never be as great as he is' or 'I should just quit now' I'm sick of it!" Latias said.
"Well, They're right. You're are not him. You're you, which is better. Look, I don't know who this Latios Pokemon is, but you need to stop bringing yourself down so much and be your own Pokemon." Rainbow suggested. Latias eyes widen and looked at the prismatic mare. She was right, she has been feeling defeated lately. She needed to get back up and try again, too show them that she can be a strong Pokemon.
"Thanks...uhhh...what's your name? And who are you?...Wait a second." Latias said as she place one of her claws on Rainbow's head and her eyes glowed blue. Images of the cyan mare's recent memories begin to flood in her head. She had seen Equu's planetary destruction, Arceus saving the inhabitants of Equus; even the animals. And Lady Virizion bringing them in Post Treasure Town. Latias let go of her head and her eyes turned back to their gold color. She gave the rainbow mare a apologetic look and hugged her.
"I'm so sorry for the lost of your home, Rainbow Dash." Latias apologized.
Rainbow Dash smiled a sad smiled and patted the eon Pokemon on the back. "Hey. It's alright. Sure, It's my homeworld. But I am happy that my friends are sa-Wait a sec. How the hay do you know my name was Rainbow Dash?!"
"I read you mind....sorry. I can also shape-shift, turn invisible and share vision with my brother. Or others I deemed really close...which is only my brother." She explained.
Rainbow Dash's jaw dropped after that. She was mildly surprised to hear that her new friend had this amazing powers.
"That....is.....AWESOOOME!!" She cheered.
"It is?" replied Latias.
"Hay Yeah! Also I can see that you can fly as well! So I'll have a flying buddy too! Double the awesomeness!" She smiled as she did loops in the air. Latias can only smile at the young mare and remembered what Rainbow Dash had called her back there.
"Hey? Rainbow Dash?"
"Yeah?"
"Did you really mean it.....what you said back there. Are we really?....Friends?" Asked the eon Pokemon. Rainbow grinned and nodded in confirmation.
"Of course we are. I am the element of loyalty and I'll never lie about friendship. If anything goes, I say you're my best friend." She smiled big as she put up her hoof towards the legendary. Latias was confused at the gesture, she looked at the hoof and back at the mare. What was Rainbow trying to do?
"What...what is this?" Asked Latias.
"It's a brohoof. It's kinda like a hoofshake. You just bring your...eh...claw and bump it with my hoof." She instructed. Latias looked at her claw and slowly brought it to her hoof and bumped it. Her eyes widen as realization begins to hit her.
"Ah! It's like a broclaw! Me and my brother use to do that when we were little." She giggled. "Oh! I forgot to mention. I am Latias. Latias Eon" She introduced herself.
"Well. You already know who I am." Rainbow joked. They shared a laugh together from that. Latias smiled at the mare, happy that she had finally gain a friend. She couldn't wait to tell her brother the good news.
"Say? Latias. Do...you stay here?" Asked Rainbow Dash.
Latias sighed sadly and nodded "Unfortunately, I barely make any money and I can only afford the rooms at the guild. Sure it's got a bed and what not. But it doesn't feel comfortable ya know."
Rainbow Dash thought about this and looked at the Pokemon. It was a bit risky and she didn't know how Latias would react. But she couldn't just let her new friend, feel uncomfortable in a guild that has it's members belittling her. She grinned at the eon Pokemon and wrapped a hoof around her.
"Say, Lati! How bout you can come stay with me and Scootaloo. I'm sure Scootaloo would love ya and I can show you some Daring Do books! Plus I got an extra room you can have." She suggested. Latias thought about it, it'll be more comfortable sleeping on a better bed. Especially one that is not made out of hay.
She smiles at the pony and nods at her.
"Alright, Rainbow. You gotta deal. Just let me explain this to Mr. Kashu and we'll be all set." She winked.
Applejack slowly opened her eyes to find that she was in a nice comfy bed. She turned to her right and saw an Ampharos cutting and peeling apples. The Ampharos turned and noticed that she was awake, she gave a mare a smile.
"Ah good thing you're awake. We were kind of worried." The Ampharos said.
"Who are you? And where am ah?" Applejack asked weakly. Ampharos noticed this and sighed, the poison was still in her system. It was a good thing she had made some Berry Juice that was 100% Pecha Berry . The Ampharos grabbed the bowl of juice and handed to the Applejack, telling her she should drink this. Applejack weakly took a sip of the juice and two seconds later, her whole body begin to feel strong again.
"Wh-what happened?! Ah...Ah...Ah I don't feel sick no more!....YEEHAW!!!" She cheered. Applejack turned to the Ampharos and smiled at her.
"Thank ya kindly...uh...."
"Elani...Ms. Elani. Light saved you and right now you are in our home. He carried you all the way out here." Elani said with smile.
"The names Applejack! Nice to meetcha!" She winked.
Applejack smiled and grabbed her hat that was sitting on the shelf. She also noticed some apple slices and looked at Elani for permission. The Ampharos giggled and told her that they are for her anyways. Without a second thought, she begin to dig in; enjoying the delicious treats. Suddenly the door creaked open, revealing Light and a Vulpix walking behind him. He looked at Applejack and nodded to her, giving her a smile.
"I see you're awake."
"Thanks for helping me back there. And uh....sorry bout eating your apples there partner. Ya see...before Ah came here, Ah was an apple farmer and well apples were my pride n joy. So when ah saw the Apple Forest, it brought back memories of Sweet Apple Acres." The apple mare explained.
"You were a farmer?!" asked Elani.
"Yes ma'am. Ah would love to farm again if ah could. But ah guess ah should go live in a ordinary house instead." Applejack said with sadness in her voice, it was obvious that she had missed her home. Light looked at her with sympathy and grabbed a pink scarf. He walked over to the apple farmer and handed the scarf to her. Applejack looked at the scarf and back to him with confusion on her face.
"What is this?" asked Applejack.
"This is a Pecha Scarf . It gives you complete immunity to poison." Light explained.
"How is that scarf suppose to protect me from being poison? Sorry sugarcube, but that doesn't make a lick a sense."
This made the Luxray grinned mischievously. He turned to the Vulpix and nodded to him. On the Vulpix's back was a silver tray carrying what look like purple spikes. Applejack begin to back up in fear from starring at the scary looking spikes.
"We knew you were going to say that. Flare, the spikes." Light ordered. Flare stood still and watched Light carefully grabbed one of the spikes off the tray. He then look at Applejack and nudge his head towards the scarf.
"These spikes are Venipede Spikeswhich are poisonous of course. Wear that scarf and I'll show you how it will protect you. Trust me" He instructed. Reluctantly, Applejack did what he said by wrapping the scarf around her neck. She didn't realize it til now, but it the scarf really looks good on her. Light nodded at Applejack and she gulped and braced herself.
"You ready....uhh?"
"Applejack. And yes. Ah'm ready."
Light nodded and smacked the spike on to Applejack's side. To her it felt like a pinch, but she wasn't feeling any poisonous effects or anything. This really surprised her a lot.
"Wh-what in tarnation!?" She gasped.
"That's the effects of the Pecha Scarf, Applejack. Keep wearing it and you'll be immune to poison." Elani said with a smile on her face. She nodded with a happy smile and looked at the pink scarf around her neck. She took it off and handed to the Ampharos with an apologetic look on her face.
"Is there an...ummm possible way to change the color to red maybe? The color really doesn't suit me." Applejack.
Elani smiled and nodded "Sure thing. I'll see what I can do. OH! The sun is setting! I forgot all about the festival. You two better go now. Me and Flare will stay in. We already met the new neighbors." She winked.
Applejack blushed and nodded, leaving with Light. When the exit the house, Applejack noticed that there was a farm and barn outside. The farm had many types of berries planted. The way things looked, it was almost as if Applejack never left home; that she was already here. She looked up at Light with pleading eyes, and Light noticed this. He chuckled and nodded his head.
"Yes Applejack. You can live here."
"Thank ya so much Light! Also. Ah wanna know. Can the fam stay with me too? It's only me, my big brother Macintosh, my little sister Applebloom, Granny Smith and our dog Winona. Ah I know it's a bit much, but I-" Her speech was interrupted by the Luxray putting his paw on her muzzle.
"It's fine Applejack. It's fine. We have 5 bedrooms in the house, but we will make it work. I promise. Now let's not worry about that. Let's get to the festival" Light said with smile. Applejack nodded and the two ran into the forest, heading towards the beginning festival.
Night had fallen and the mane six along with various ponies were enjoying the time they were having, some were playing games like fishing for koi fish and others were dancing to music made by the Bellossom sisters which Pinkie joined in during the dance routine. Everyone joined in and it was a great time. Applejack explained to her family what happened and Big Mac threatened to hurt the Beedrills if he ever sees them. Light smiled at this and introduced to himself to the apple family.
"Hey there, I'm Light. I am the one who saved your sister." He said.
"Thank ya kindly Light, I'm Big Macintosh. But mah friends call me Big Mac, and this here is Applebloom, Granny Smith and Winona. Nice ta meet ya" He smiled.
Light explained about the living arrangements to the apple family and they had all agreed. Each of the mane six talked about the current places they'll be living in and what is going on right now. After three hours of eating and dancing, the mane six went their separate ways with their Pokemon friends.
"Hey Aurora?" Asked Twilight.
"Yes?"
"You said that you live with your brother and his best friend? Who and what are they?" She asked. Aurora smiled and looked at Twilight and Spike.
"My brother is an shiny Umbreon named Orion. He is an inventor and somewhat of an scientist. And his best friend is named Indra, he is an Absol who likes adventure and books." She explained. Twilight's ears perked at the mention of science and books. She knew she was going to love it there.
Spike noticed the big smile on her face and rolled his eyes.
'Here we go again'
Meanwhile in the Kalos region in the Allearth Forest . A tall blue deer-like creature was walking through an enchanting forest. This creature was a Pokemon known as Xerneas, and she smiled as she watched the fellow Pokemon sleep peacefully in their homes. However, a certain diamond Pokemon rushed to her and had an nervous expression on her face.
'Forgive me Father for what I am about to do' the diamond Pokemon thought.
"Mother Xerneas! It's good to see you again." She greeted.
"Hello Diancie. How's the city holding up and your subjects?" Xerneas asked. Diancie smiled and told her everything's fine. However, she begin to explain what she came here for.
"Uhhh...Mother. Father brought about 7-9 new species of different creatures into Equus and saved them from destruction and extinction without your permission." She said, closing her eyes in fear. While Xerneas may seem kind and gentle, she is one of the few Pokemon you do NOT want to anger. Xerneas had an confuse expression on her face and went to go see for herself. She and Diancie teleported to Avugnon Town and saw Diamond Dogs walking around the city with the Pokemon. She walked up to one of the Diamond Dogs and asked how she and her species got here.
"Some Pokemon brought us here after saving us from our planet's destruction. I'm surprise you didn't know." She said as she walk off.
"Yeah...Me too" Xerneas said as she slowly gain an angry face.
"Told you mother." Diancie said.
Xerneas took a deep breath and screamed in the top of her lungs.
"ARCEUS!!!!!!"
Xerneas and Diancie teleported out of the area with a look of pure anger, ignoring the looks she was getting from the various Diamond Dogs and Pokemon.
Meanwhile in the Hall of Legends, Arceus is spending time with his daughter Mew. He was chuckling and smiled at the pink Pokemon.
"I am sure you will meet tons of new friends, Mew. Just don't cause too much trouble" He said.
"I know. I know. I am not a little kid dad." She replied. Suddenly, Arceus felt a cold shiver went down his spine and he felt pale. Mew noticed this and looked at her father with concern.
"Dad? You alright?" She asked.
"Yes. I just felt the wrath of your mother." He replied.
A Whole New World We Live In
Chapter 6
1
Arceus sudden fear increased even more when a bright flash of light appeared revealing two Pokemon he knew. One of them is his daughter, the diamond princess; Diancie. The other is his wife, the Pokemon of life; Xerneas. The Pokemon of Life was starring daggers at the god. If looks could kill, Arceus would had been dead 50x over.
"Sorry Father, I had to tell the truth." Diancie said with a guilty expression on her face. Mew just rolled her eyes and called her a snitch. Arceus cleared his throat and looked into Xerneas, x-like blue eyes. All he could see in them was anger, demanding an explanation. He knew this was going to happened. And he is greatly prepared for it, despite that his wife is looking extremely angry right now.
"Arceus!? Why did you bring not only one but several different species of unknown creatures into the Pokemon World?!" Xerneas demanded.
Arceus cleared his throat and began to explain.
"You see dear, Equus was going through an magical crisis. If I didn't intervene and help, thousands upon thousands of innocent lives would had perished. Yes, I could have send them to a new planet. But there were no other planets I knew of that could of accepted them, so I chose ours. Besides, I do miss neighboring species like we had with the humans." He confessed.
Xerneas sighed but still had an stern look upon her face. She looked at the god, absorbing all the information he had given her. Suddenly, her facial expressions soften and took a deep breath. Sometimes, her husband can be a bit of a moron.
"Arceus. Listen. I know you mean well. But you can't just dump some unknown species onto the Pokemon world. You don't know how they'll react."
"True. But I believe everything will come in peace and harmony. I had already informed the Dux 6 about the new species coming into town." Arceus said.
"But what about War?! Aren't you afraid that another war will break loose?! What if a Pokemon decided to attack or kill a member of a species from Equus and they decided to retaliate?! We can't afford another war Arceus!" Xerneas countered.
"I am happy that you saved them from destruction and had offer them a home. But...I am just worried that things won't go as you planned. Like what the humans did long time ago. Especially to those poor Gardevoir." She shuddered at thought. Arceus nodded at that, remembering that Gardevoir, Lopunny and Delphox were the mostly targeted Pokemon. Simply because they had resemble human or anthropomorphic women.
"Listen Xerneas. I know I should have talked to you about this. I know I should have thought about it more clearly. But I believe I have done the right thing. Plus, if war ever does break out. I would stop it myself and deal with it, this I promise you. Just trust me on this Xerneas." Arceus replied. Xerneas sighed and looked at her two daughters who were now avoiding eye contact.
"Alright. I am just worried is all. Against my better judgment I will see how this plays out. As long as Mew makes some friends."
Mew giggled and nodded at her mother. "Don't worry mom, I will."
Xerneas smiled at her daughter and looked at her husband. "You better hope you know what you're doing Arceus." She said to herself.
Morning arrives and the sun decided to let some sunlight shine through a certain sun princess's window. She stirred for a bit, only to wake up when the sunlight had beamed on her white face. She turned to the window and grumbled a bit, shielding her eyes from the attacking sunlight.
'Ugh. The sun rises on it's own? If it were up to me, I'd give it an extra hour. Oh well, can't be helped.' Celestia thought. She got out of her bed and looked around her room, her new room. Her room has a golden color to it with whitish gold curtains hanging on the window. It brought a radiant shine to her room. She smiled at that and looked at the marble golden floor, noticed her cutie mark design on it.
'What the?!' She thought.
She scanned the cutie mark design on the marbled floor and tapped it with her hoof.
"Was this Arceus's doing?" She asked herself. 'This is quite bizarre'. She brushed the strange occurrence aside, assuming it had something to do with the Pokemon god. She looked over to see her sleeping phoenix, Philomena sitting on the window stand. She smiled at that and quietly walked out of her new room. Everything had happened so fast, with her home world exploding and this god named Arceus saving her and her subjects from their planets sudden destruction. She felt like a complete failure, how she couldn't handle the situation. Sure, she helped evacuate everypony into the portals. But she felt like she could had handled the situation a bit better. Deciding not to dwell on the thought and be happy that her precious ponies are safe from harm. She walked down the hallway to get some breakfast. The sun princess had greeted some of her royal guards who gained a job to work in the Sword of the Vale. The Sword of the Vale is the castle home of Eindoak Town. It reminded her of the Canterlot Castle back in her own world. She sighed sadly at the thought of her homeworld, she will indeed miss it.
"Good morning, Sister." Said Luna.
Celestia looked up to see her sister, smiling at her. She smiled back and nodded at her younger sibling.
"Good morning, Luna" Celestia replied.
Luna nodded at her "Hello, I was just about to see the town, to see what it has to offer."
Celestia looked out of the window and noticed some ponies and other Pokemon are interacting with one of another. It amazed her how friendly some can be with others. But she knew well enough that conflict was inevitable.
"Sure, I would like to join you Luna, but first. Let us get some breakfast." Celestia suggested with a smile. The two royal sisters walked down the hall, passing by statues of legendary Pokemon. Some of the statues she recognized such as Arceus and the Swords of Justice. That reminded her of the leader of that group, Cobalion. The legendary Pokemon is very kind and not to mention quite handsome. Celestia felt a small blush coming from her cheeks. She shook her head vigorously, banishing the thought of the Sword of Justice. She wasn't looking for a relationship, not since what had happened between her and Sombra. She signed sadly at the thought of him, he was everything she had wanted. It was a shame he had gone to the dark side of magic.
'Sombra' She thought.
"Sister!" Luna called out. Celestia's thoughts were shattered from the sound of the princess of the night's voice. She turned to her younger sister and gave her a questioning look.
"You alright? I had said that we have arrived to the mess hall. You were spacing out on us." She said. Celestia looked ahead and noticed two Bisharp guarding the doors that lead to the mess hall. The two Pokemon nodded at them and greeted them with a smile.
"Oh..good morning, Princess Celestia. Princess Luna" One of the Bisharp greeted. The two royal sisters raised their eyebrows at the guards. Since when did the Pokemon started calling them princess? Sure, obviously they were princesses before. But that was in the past, the two hold no power here.
"Oh...It's alright young Pokemon. You do not have to call us Princess. Celestia is just fine." Celestia smiled.
"Oh. But Sir Cobalion insist. You're a princess. Therefore, it's appropriate to call you by your titles." The Bisharp replied. Celestia groaned at the this while Luna suppressed a giggled. She shook her head and nodded at the two Bisharp. She would need a talk to the Sword of Justice soon. The two princesses enter the mess hall and had noticed some of the ponies and Pokemon presented. There was Cobalion of course, chatting it up with Virizion and Terrakion. Prince Blueblood and his seven wives were also present. Along them were a large green snake-like creature with ruby red eyes. Next to the Pokemon, was an otter-like creature with a horn and what appeared to be armor. Last but not least, there is a pony-like creature with a red mane and blue tail. He is currently having an conversation with two other creatures. One had green hair and blueish green eyes with a black dress. And the other looked like some kind of squirrel-rabbit creature with blue eyes. To Celestia, the creature was incredibly cute, nibbling on an apple like an hamster. The Sword of Justice leader, Cobalion noticed the sun and moon princesses and decided to greet them.
"Ah. Princess Celestia. Princess Luna. So happy for you both to join us. Everyone. I would like you to meet Princess Celestia and Princess Luna." Cobalion introduced. The Pokemon in the room turned to the two royal sisters and begin to introduce themselves.
"I am Queen Emrada. I am a Serperior. And this is King Mifune, He is an Samurott." The queen said as she held up the tip of her leafy tail. Celestia and Luna immediately understood the gesture and shook the tail with their hooves.
"It's quite nice to meet you, Queen Emrada and King Mifune." Celestia replied. Samurott held up his paw to the princesses who shook it as well.
"Welcome to Eindoak Town. We had heard about what had happened to your home planet. We are terribly sorry for your loss." He said with sadness. Celestia and Luna bowed their head and smiled equally sad.
"Tis alright, King Mifune. For we are forever grateful that our loving subjects are safe from harm." Luna spoke. Mifune nodded to that and looked behind him to see a certain pony legendary not paying any attention to the princesses. This made Mifune grumbled a bit and went to glare at the Pokemon.
'This generation these days. No respect' He thought.
"KELDEO! MELOETTA! VICTINI!!" Mifune shouted. This had gained the three legendary Pokemon attention. The trio looked at Mifune and then the princesses. They all walked up to them and bowed out of respect.
"S-Sorry about that. I am Keldeo. A Sword of Justice. And these are my friends Meloetta, the Pokemon of Melody and Victini. Pokemon of Victory." Keldeo introduced. Celestia and Luna shook hooves with the three Pokemon and gave Keldeo a look of confusion.
"You look so much like a pony." Luna commented.
"Oh. Yeah I suppose so. To be honest. I noticed some ponies here and there yesterday. I couldn't believe it. There were even times where other Pokemon confused me for a pony. I guess you could call me a Ponymon or something." Keldeo joked.
Victini laughed at this, while Meloetta just shook her head.
"It is lovely to meet you princesses. Like King Mifune had said, I am terribly sorry about the destruction of your home planet." Meloetta apologized.
"It is alright Meloetta, We are just happy our subjects are safe from harm." Celestia replied with a kind smile. Cobalion cleared his throat to gain everyone's attention. Celestia and Luna looked up at Cobalion, while the sun princess was trying to suppress a blush once again.
"Princess Celestia. Princess Luna. Come sit with us. Let us talk." He suggested.
The two sisters found two empty seats and sat in them. Celestia also noticed that two ponies, Shining Armor and Cadence were missing. Did they had breakfast already?
"Cobalion? Do you know where Shining Armor and Princess Cadence are?" Asked the solar monarch.
"They had said they were going to explore the town and see what it has to offer."
To say they were surprise would be an understatement. The roads were made out of crystal, similar to the Crystal Empire. Shining and Cadence could not believe it. They also noticed that some Pokemon and other ponies begin to marvel at the sight of the crystal ponies who lived here. The couple began to hear chattering with ooo's and ahh's. The crystal prince and princess turned to see a crowd of Pokemon in the middle of the road starring at some object.
'What the? What's going on over there?' Cadence thought.
The two ponies walked over to inspect what was going to find something very shocking. What the Pokemon were starring at wasn't no ordinary object. The object was no other than the Crystal Heart.
"I don't understand. How could the Crystal Heart be here?!" Cadence said.
"It must of been Arceus's doing." Shining replied. Their thoughts were interrupted by a sound of a loud bang and scream. The two ponies along with some royal guards and Bisharp found a downed mare with a lime green coat and blue mane and tail. She was surrounded by an anthropomorphic yellow creature with a big nose and white fur around it's neck. It was also holding what appeared to be a pendulum. A brown bipedal Pokemon with colored lights on it's hands. And lastly, another Pokemon that was similar to a squid in comparison. It held an sinister look on it's face.
"STOP RIGHT THERE!!"Shouted one of the royal guards. The three Pokemon looked at the ponies and begin to grin.
"We are the Royal Guard of Eindoak Town, We are here to serve and protect our citizens."
One of the Bisharp guards smiled at this and decided to back some of the royal guard up. "That is right. For attacking an innocent mare and disturbing the peace. You're under arrest." He declared. The squid-like creature could only chuckle at the declaration.
"I am under arrest? Funny. And I believe Princess Celestia and Sir Cobalion had made you the royal guards of protecting this place? Your princess is nothing but a fool." The squid-like creature now known as a Malamar said.
This had angered some of the royal guards.
"What did you say?!" Yelled out one of the guards.
The Malamar chuckled and repeated himself. "I had said. Your princess is nothing but a fool." This provoked the royal guard even further. Deciding to shut his mouth once and for all, three of guards charged at the Malamar. Intent on taking him down. Cadence noticed something odd about the Malamar's eyes and the strange pattern on his body. His body began to glow a faint blue as his belly glowed a faint yellow.
'Oh no' Cadence thought.
"GET AWAY FROM HIM YOU THREE!! HE'S A PSYCHIC TYPE POKEMON!!!" Cadence warned, But it was too late. The Malamar already had the royal guards in his grasp in a telekinetic hold.
"You should've backed down" He told them coldly and threw the guards away from them. Some of them crashing into tables and others into wooden crates.
Shining begin to order some of the crystal guards to check up on the down guards. He glared daggers on the trio of chuckling Pokemon.
"Who are you!? Why are you doing this?!" He demanded.
The Malamar stopped chuckling and glared at the pony. "You have no orders of telling me what to do, Shining Armor."
The white stallion was completely shocked. "How...How do you know my name?!"
The Malamar chuckled again, but the Hypno next to him begin to answer. "It's our job as psychic type Pokemon to know who and what you are. It would seem.....unnatural if we didn't."
"I knew it.....So you are psychic type Pokemon! Just what the hell did you do to that poor mare?!" demanded Cadence.
The Malamar sighed and decided to answer their questions. "Very well then, I shall explain who we are and what happened to the mare. I am Mal. I am a Malamar. And these are my....lackeys, Pend the Hypno....and Enigma the Beheeyem. We are a 'Rescue Team' known as...Team Hypnosis."
"How do you do." Enigma greeted.
"Charmed." Pend said.
"R-Rescue Team?" Shining Repeated.
Mal chuckled and nodded at the prince. "That's right. We go around either stealing items or stealing lives. Depending our mood. But that's not our goal. Our goal....well....you don't need to know."
Cadence growled and looked at the quivering mare and noticed a pink aura surrounding her. "And what about the mare?! What did you do to her."
Enigma smiled and looked at the crystal princess. "We....put her to sleep."
Cadence, the guards and Shining Armor gasped at this. "Y-Y-You killed her?!"
Mal laughed at this and shook his head, grinning at them sinisterly. "Oh no...not yet. You see the pink aura. We are sapping her energy away by eating her dreams. Pend is using an technique called Dream Eater. It's a technique that saps all your life energy while you sleep. It is also one of the 10 illegal moves to use here due to it being extremely lethal."
Shining Armor growled and begin to light up his horn. "You bastards....stop this at once."
Mal glared and ignore him. "You fool. You make no demands here. Soon this whole world will be ours and everyone in it will fall-" Mal didn't get to finish his sentence as a he felt a hard force hit against his cheek. The force sent him flying towards a wooden food stand. But that's not all, Pend and Enigma felt a searing blast of heat hit them as well, sending them back.
Mal recovered from the attack and looked upon his attackers. To say he was shock is an understatement. There stood two recognizable Pokemon in brown hooded cloaks smirking at him. One is a Lucario with a bone rush technique activate and the other is female Delphox with the flaming branch in her paw.
"You know. Attacking the guards is one thing. But attacking innocents and going around like you own the place just crosses the line." Said the Lucario. The Lucario walked up to the down pony and gave her a piece of a Chesto Berry. The pony woke up to the face of the Lucario starring at her. Of course, upon instinct the mare begin to flail around, actually managing to hit the Lucario in the face; much to the Delphox's amusement.
"Relax. Relax. I am here to save you. You barely have any energy left. But the Pokemon Center should fix that right up." He smiled. He put her down and turned to Mal and his gang. The Delphox walked by his side, smirking and feeling her Pokemon blood beginning to boil.
"W-Who are you?" Shining asked.
The Lucario smiled at the prince and nodded. "I am Sir Aaron. Captain of Sir Cobalion's Steel Sword Guards."
A Whole New World We Live In
Chapter 7
1
Mal's frown quickly turned into a sinister grin. He watched the two Pokemon approach him slowly, getting ready to attack when the moment is right. Enigma and Pend walked up to Mal's side, helping the Malamar up on his feet.
"I never thought I'd see you again? Aaron. And you, Miss Nova...." Mal grinned.
Nova growled at the Malamar and was about to approach him, But Aaron put a paw up to her; telling her that he'll handle this. Nova nodded and stepped aside. The Pokemon of Aura glared at the Malamar and pointed at him.
"That's SIR Aaron to you, Mal! What are you doing here? And why you hurting these ponies?!" Aaron demanded.
Mal just chuckled coldly a grin at the Lucario. "I don't need to answer you, I am simply doing this for my own gain. Also, you're in no position to make demands. We are a team of a psychics and you're just a fighting type. We have the advantage."
Aaron just growled and activated his Bone Rush, preparing for battle.Psycho Cut
Mal and his partners eyes glow blue as they prepare as well.
Start Battle Music
Aaron charged at the psychic Pokemon, quickly attacking with his Bone Rush move. The Malamar saw this coming and dodge all of his strikes, he grinned and used a Psybeam against the aura Pokemon. Acting quickly, Aaron spun his Bone Rush staff in front of him like a fan. It reflected the attack back at Mal who took the blunt of the attack but didn't affect him at all due to his dark typing. Aaron then let out a huge Dragon Pulse , but Mal made half a dozen copies of himself with Double Teambefore hitting Aaron with Thunderbolt. The Lucario closed his eyes to concentrate and sensed the aura of the true Mal and threw an Aura Sphere at him. They then ran at each other, Mal with Psycho Cut and Sir Aaron with Metal Claw. At the last minute, the Lucario ducked and hit his opponent with a Metal Claw uppercut. Mal then rose up into the air and used Psychic to lift Aaron up with him before throwing him back to the ground, but before he could do it again he was faced with the unbearable Metal Soundcoming from the spot where he had thrown his enemy. Once he cleared his head he was knocked out of the sky by a Shadow Ball. The smoke on the ground showed Sir Aaron standing upright, who cracked his neck before rushing his enemy.
Meanwhile, Nova jumped away to avoid the attacks of Enigma and Pend, the former of which shot a Hidden Power at her, causing the Delphox to slam into a wall. She growled before she became completely covered in her own flames, and went for the Beheeyem at a blinding speed, but was met with Pend and his Zen Headbutt. The two clashed before they both jumped back. They both went in with the same attack of Zen Headbutt, but she engulfed them both in her Mystical Fire. Pend brought his hands together for a Focus Blast, while Nova responded with Signal Beam. The two attacks caused a small explosion causing the area they were in to become with smoke. The Hypno and Beheeyem looked around to find their foe, and saw a silhouette of their target. They instantly fired a Shadow Ball and Charge Beamonly to find nothing there. Their eyes widened as they were hit by a Flamethrower. They were about to retaliate when they saw their leader getting hit by a barrage of Extreme Speedattacks.
Aaron charged at the psychic type Pokemon, but was intercepted by Enigma and Pend.
'Dammit! How could I have forgotten about the other two?!' Aaron thought.
"You will desist in harming our leader." Enigma ordered monotonously as he and Pend charged up a Charge Beam and Focus Blast. Mal grinned as he gave his partners a nod; the two pokemon launched their attacks at the Lucario. Aaron was prepared to counter both attacks; however two different colored shields appeared around him and protected him from the attack. He looked at the source on where it came from to find the two ponies he just seen earlier, Shining Armor and Cadence.
"Three against one? That's hardly fair..." Shining Armor said. Aaron looked at the unicorn and then at the Alicorn, soon Nova joined him as well.
"Now it's four against three....You better quit while you're ahead Mal." Nova warned. Mal growled but knew that they were right, not to mention the remaining guards. He then began to glow along with his teammates, one of the Bisharp guards noticed that this is the move called Teleport.
"He's planning to escape!" One of them announced but it was too late. As soon as that sentence was finished, they were already gone. Aaron growled at this and ordered some of the guards to clean up the mess and take in the green downed mare that the so called rescue team attack. Shining Armor meanwhile had ordered the rest of Eindoak Town's residents to go back into their daily activities. He turned to the Lucario and smiled at him.
"Thanks for saving my butt back there, uh...What is your name?" Asked Aaron.
"Shining....Shining Armor and this is my wife Cadence." He introduced. Cadence walked up to the two Pokemon and bowed to them.
"It is nice to meet you Sir Aaron of the Steel Sword Guards and....I am sorry, What is your name?" Cadence asked the Delphox. She smiled and shook the princess of love's hoof.
"My name is Nova. I am Aaron's fiancee . It's nice to meet you too." Nova replied. Cadence smiled and then gained a serious look on her face and turned to Aaron.
"What is going to happened to that mare? Is she going to be alright?" She asked.
Aaron smiled at her concern and nodded. "Do not worry, she'll just be taken into questioning. After she has answered all of our questions; she's free to go. We just need to know her side of the story and what went down."
12 minutes later
The green mare had found herself in a white room with a same colored table. Across the table, was a Bisharp, a Lucario and two royal guards. One of the guards she noticed was Shining Armor. The mare suddenly felt scared, thinking she was going to be thrown in jail or even worse. Being a Lucario can allow you to feel other creature's auras, and her aura right now radiated fear. Aaron decided to take a more gentle approach and gave her a small smile.
"Relax. If you are wondering if you would be thrown in jail. You're not. You have done absolutely nothing wrong." Aaron said.
This seemed to calm the mare's nerves as she took a deep breath.
"We just want you to answer some questions for us ok?" Shining Armor added. The mare nodded and took a deep breath to calm herself once more.
"Let's start with your name. Who are you and what happened?" Asked Aaron.
"Well, My name is Spring Meadow and as you know, I was attacked by those three Pokemon. What had happened before all of this was I was planning to leave the town to go live in Pokemon Hills. I heard it's peaceful and not much of a bustling city. Don't get me wrong, this place is nice...but it isn't me." She apologized.
Aaron and Shining Armor chuckled at that, knowing exactly how she feel. After sharing a laugh, Spring decided to continue her story.
"I was walking through the streets and I saw the three Pokemon, chatting amongst themselves. I decided to go ask for directions to the nearest train station. They said that they would lead me to the train station, however they only lead me to dark alley. I knew something was up but I just didn't want to believe it. My thoughts were true when they attacked me and demanded my bits...I mean, Poke. Sorry. Anyways, I try to fend them off myself but I wasn't...strong enough....I...I lost them and my Poke along with the rest of my belongings were stolen." She finished as tears started to come out of her eyes. Aaron and Shining Armor took all the information in and nodded to themselves.
"Alright Ms. Spring. Just step out of this room and we will get everything situated. Giving you some poke to move out and an ID."Aaron said.
Spring nodded with tears streaming down her face, smiling. "Thank you so much sir." The guards had lead her out of the room and Shining and Aaron followed, they turned to see their lovers Nova and Cadence standing there. The two walked up to their parents and gave them a smile.
"So how did it go?" Asked Cadence.
"It went well. Her name is Spring Meadow and she was robbed and attacked by those three Pokemon. She was trying to leave Eindoak Town to live in a place much quieter." Aaron replied.
Nova nodded while Cadence gasped at this. "She was tricked or something?" Nova asked.
Shining Armor replied "Yeah. She went up to them and asked for directions to the nearest train station. They had said they would help, lead her to a dark alley and had attacked and robbed her. Then that's when we heard her scream."
Nova and Cadence absorb the information in. They pray that she'll be alright. Then, a thought came to Shining Armor, he remembered that Aaron had said that move that Mal was using is forbidden.
"Hey, Sir Aaron? You mentioned earlier that Mal used a forbidden move called....Hypnosis was it?...What do you mean? Why is it forbidden?" Asked Shining Armor.
Nova and Aaron looked at each other and sighed. He looked at Shining Armor and spoke. "A long time ago, Xerneas declared for ten certain moves to be forbidden to use due to their power and abilities. Use one of these moves and you could end up in the dungeon for about five years time and stripped from using your Pokemon powers."
Cadence and Shining gulped at this, it was a good thing they were not Pokemon, so it didn't really applied to them. But it did scared them a bit, back in Equestria the most someone could stay in the dungeon was six months. In Unova, it's five years, and that's for using an illegal move. If that's what you can get for using something illegal, they hated to know what the penalty for murder was. Cadence and Shining soon regain themselves and asked what were the other nine illegal moves that were forbidden to use.
"Oh...let's see then....Fissure, Zap Cannon, Dark Void, Metronome, Oblivion Wing, Curse, Sheer Cold, Magma Storm and Gastro Acid. These plus Hypnosis are the moves no Pokemon should ever use....unless they want to spend five years in the dungeon of course." Nova said with slight smirk on her face. Shining Armor and Cadence took all the information in, they would have to be careful and keep a look out on certain Pokemon that will use these techniques. Who knows what kind of destruction it could bring. A thought popped into Shining's mind as he looked at the two Pokemon.
"Sir Aaron? Nova? Where did you two come from?"
Aaron smiled nervously and looked at the sky for a moment before looking back at the prince. "We come from a place from above."
Derpy walked down the stairs of her new home to get some breakfast. There, at the table already was Time Turner or Doctor as she likes to call him reading a newspaper and eating buttered toast. She smiled and trotted towards him, giving him a kiss on the check. Doctor smiled and put his newspaper down.
"Ah, morning Derpy. I see that you're awake." He greeted with a smile.
"Morning Doctor. Wow, it's odd. This new world I mean...and that's saying something since I'm the 'Queen of Odd' " She said with a chuckle. Doctor nodded and looked out a nearby window. There he saw few Pokemon and Ponies going to their new jobs or just simply taking a walk. It was amazing that how quickly some ponies were adapting to the place. But he knew there was bound to be conflict soon. He sighed and looked at his wife who is now eating a Muffin.
"I suppose we should get Dinky in Pokemon Academy too, since her old one got blown up." He said.
"I agree, Dinky does need to go back to school. But I am not sure though....since the school here is for Pokemon. What will they learn? More importantly, what would Ms. Cheerilee would do about the school....it is her special talent after all." Doctor said to himself.
Derpy heard him speak and nodded "I am sure everything will be resolved....Oh! Speaking of jobs. I'm going to be reaaaaal busy today...so could you take Dinky to school to get her registered? We live in this odd but nice community....it'll be best if we do it now then later right?"
Doctor nodded with a smile. "Of course Muffin, I'll do that as soon as I finish eating my breakfast. You should go though, If I remember correctly, there's a post office down the street...maybe you could be mailpony again?" He suggested.
The gray pegasus golden eyes widen as she realized this, she nodded and bolted out the door, while the Doctor chuckled at this.
'Well, time to wake up Dinky and Sparkler...' He thought.
Speaking of the pony, Cheerilee is currently walking towards the building that had a pokeball symbol on it. She is, to say; incredibly nervous actually. This isn't just a school, but a school for Pokemon, a species she knows absolutely nothing about. But that didn't stop her, she needed this career. Teaching children is her life, her passion and destiny, as it's all in her cutie mark.
"Well, Here goes nothing." She said to herself as she opened the doors of the school. The many desk fit for the students and big chalkboard up at front. There also seems to be a Pokemon whose reading a newspaper and listening to a radio. The pokemon looked like some odd plant creature with a flower on it's head. Cheerilee also heard what the radio had said. Something about her fellow ponies and other species arriving in the Pokemon World.
"Are they aliens coming to take over our planet or are they new friends coming to greet us." One of the talk host said.
She heard some chuckling from the radio as host made that joke. Cheerilee rolled her eyes and went in to listen more.
"Well right now, we have a special guest with us today. He is what is known as a changeling from the Johto nation. We are here to answer a few questions." The host announced, Cheerilee blocked out the rest and turned to noticed that the Pokemon was staring at her, She then suddenly became embarrassed and smiled sheepishly.
"Oh..Sorry about intruding in here." She apologized.
The Pokemon smiled...or at least it looked like it did since it doesn't have a mouth. Cheerilee nervously looked to the side, trying to avoid eye contact and the awkwardness that is presented. The Pokemon giggled and finally spoke to her, giving the mare her full attention.
"Sorry about that, I got a little distracted and didn't see you come in. I am Daisy, I am a Lilligant. That is a grass type Pokemon. You must be Ms. Cheerilee." Daisy said.
This surprised the mare and she nodded her head. "Yes...but how do you know that?" She asked.
Daisy giggled and replied. "Yesterday, a mare by the name of Milano Mash came in yesterday and introduced herself. She told me about the school back in Equestria, you and all the wonderful good heart children in there. You sound like an amazing teacher, Ms. Cheerilee."
Cheerilee blushed at the praise and smiled "Oh you..." But then she remembered why she came here. "Oh you see....Ms. Daisy...I came here for a request. I...I want to become a teacher here. You see, teaching isn't just my career. It's a passion and my life...and I-" Her speech was interrupted by the giggling Pokemon.
Cheerilee became irritated and glared at the offending Pokemon. "And what is so funny?!" The Lilligant ceased her giggling and looked at the pony.
"It's funny to me because I was going to come and try to look for you and talk about the job. You could teach with me" She said.
"You mean collaborative teaching?"
"Yeah! That! I can teach the ponies all about Pokemon and you can teach the pokemon all about ponies? Whaddya say?" She suggested. Cheerilee thought about it. She would be learning more about Pokemon from Daisy teaching the ponies. She smiled and nodded.
"Sure. Why not. But don't you think the classroom has.....a few desk...the fillies and colts who will be attending will be quite alot." She replied. Daisy looked at the classroom and notice there are only fifty desk tables and chairs in the room. She had seen Cheerilee's point, it could be crowded. However, she had an idea and she'll need her help to do it.
"I got an idea. How 'bout we put these desk away and get the other ones I have in the back. We will get larger desk and two ponies or pokemon or even both can share that desk. It'll make group projects a lot easier." She suggested.
Cheerilee nodded and smiled "Alright. Let's get to it."
Meanwhile with Derpy, the gray pegasus was walking down the street to see the Pelipper Post Office. Like the Doctor had said, she could score a job as a mailmare for Unova. She just hopes she doesn't screw up and her boss will be lenient towards her. There she was, standing right in front of the building. She examine the building and noticed it is shaped like a Pelipper. She walked in and had seen many Pokemon most of them were bird-like and others were dragons. Derpy smiled and walked up to the counter where she saw a Pelipper doing some work. The Pelipper noticed her and smiled.
"Why hello there, Miss. How can I help you?" He asked.
"Yeah. I wanted to become a mail pony here? You see, I was originally delivering mail back in Ponyville." She said.
Before the Pelipper could reply, a dragon Pokemon with red lens came up to her and began to examine her. "Tsk..are you sure you're capable of delivery? You won't be just delivering mail in Post Treasure Town. You will also be delivering mail all around Unova."
Derpy put on a challenging grin and stomped her hoof. "You know it!"
"You'll also have to go through harsh blizzards, thunderstorms and scary sandstorms to deliver packages as well? It's alright if you wanna chicken out." The dragon Pokemon said, trying to scare the Pegasus. However, what the Pokemon didn't know was that Derpy already has experience in those type of situations.
"I already have experience in that area. I can handle it." She retorted
Before the Pokemon could replied back, The Pelipper decided to break it up before it escalated. He turned and glared at the Flygon and told her to get back to work.
"Yes Mr. Pete." She grumbled as she left the office. He sighed and shook his head and smiled at the gray Pegasus, apologizing for that minor altercation.
"Oh that's alright. Not the first time that somepony didn't believe in my skills." She chuckled, but soon her eyes widen as she saw what had caught her eye. There, sitting at the ride side of her and was plate of fresh baked muffins. She licked her lips and stared at the delicious treats. Mr. Pete had noticed and begin to chuckle.
"I see you like muffins. They're usually for mailers, something to start their day since they would have work early in the morn-"
"And they're free?!"
"I'm sorry?"
"Muffins?! FREE?!?!"
"I uh...Yes?"
"YES!!! MUFFINS!!!" Derpy yelled out as she caught the attention of the Pokemon in the office. Some were conversing about what just transpired.
"I was not ready for today." An Altaria spoke.
"I don't think any of us were." Replied a Noctowl.
Mr. Pete chuckled sheepishly and eventually calmed the mare down, smiling at her. He did love her energy, just what the dull office needed.
Vinyl and Octavia are now staying in their homes moving things around the house. They had only managed to take so much stuff since the whole end of the world disaster. Octavia sighed as she moved her cello near the stairs, she'll admit though. Their old house was so much better and Vinyl does seem to like it.
"Yo Tavi! Come in here real quick!" Called out the DJ. Octavia sighed and walked upstairs to find the DJ rummaging through her stuff like a madmare. She raised an eyebrow at her roommates actions and sighed.
"What is the matter, Vinyl?" She asked.
"What's the matter?! WHAT'S THE MATTER!? I LOST MY SHADES THAT'S WHAT'S THE MATTER!?!?" She yelled.
Octavia's eyes widen at this and tried to calm her best friend down, but to no avail.
"What am I going to do?!" Vinyl asked herself.
Octavia thought to herself and then, suddenly an idea came. "We have 3000 bits each...I mean Poke right? Well, let's just buy some new shades for you down in Pokemon City? I could also use some new musical records...since my old ones were destroyed."
Vinyl thought to herself and nodded, at the bright side she'll be gaining some new shades. But at the bad side, she'll be replacing her old ones. She sighed and smiled, best not to dwell into the past.
A Whole New World We Live In
Chapter 8
The next day had arrived quickly and it was already noon. Twilight is currently sitting on a stool in the cafe called, Spinda's Cafe. She was a bit surprised that her friend, Pinkie is working here. She watched her Pink friend, delivering drinks and special dishes to each table. She looked around the cafe and notice the Pokemon and Ponies together and eating, possibly conversing about themselves. She then turned around fully and noticed her friends and new friends sitting with each other, talking. There was Spike of course, her new friends Aurora and Orion, Applejack and her friend Light, Rarity, Velvet, Fluttershy, Firework and Rainbow Dash. Her friend, Latias was nowhere to be found, probably at the Wigglytuff Guild. Twilight smiled as Pinkie had delivered her order.
"Here ya go Twilight, One cup of Oran berry juice with a plate of pink sweet poffins! I had tried the poffins before and they are GOOOOOOD!! You'll love them Twilight!" Pinkie said as she handed over the plate confectioneries to Twilight.
"You should also taste the chocolate ones. Now those are even more delicious. HEY! MR. ALAKANOCHI?! Can I take a break and sit with my friends now?"
The Spinda rolled his spiral dizzy eyes and nodded. "It's Mr. Alonsa and yes you may, Pinkie. I would never keep you away from you friends."
'That pony could never say my name right.' Spinda thought with a chuckle.
The two mares walked or rather hopped in Pinkie's case to the table of their friends. Twilight sat next to Orion while Pinkie sat next Rarity, the table was almost full and only had room for one more. Right now, the conversation the bundle of friends were having was about Pokemon Items that can and will help out in battle or on the go.
"I see...so Full Restore are special healing items that can all wounds. And those Poke Ball devices were use to capture Pokemon and force them to battle?! That sounds absolutely barbaric." Rarity exclaimed.
"I agree..."Fluttershy replied.
"Now hold on...fighting is in our blood. So while we do love a challenge, we also don't like to cooped up in those atrocities." Aurora replied.
The ponies nodded and continued eating their snakes until Rainbow Dash spoke up. She had noticed her friend, Latias wasn't present. Where is that Pokemon? She graduated from the Wigglytuff Guild with her help in one day and but hasn't seen her since. They also became a two member team and called themselves 'The RainboomsShe didn't come home either to explain where she was. However, thoughts of her were interrupted when said Pokemon burst through the doors of the Spinda Cafe.
"Oh, there she is...Yo! Latias! Where ya been?! I was looking all over for you. Ya haven't bailed out on me, eh?"
Latias looked excited, reallyexcited. She rushed towards Rainbow and pulled her into a big hug.
"Eh? What's with the hug?"
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"Blaziken Butt! But seriously, I was checking our mail when I heard a cry from a distressed Azumarill."
-Flashback-
The eon Pokemon was reading through the mail of Rainbow's new home. Latias now stayed with the prismatic pony along with little adopted sister, Scootaloo. Scootaloo seemed to like her as well, even going so far as giving her an affectionate nickname which is 'Little Torchic'. Right now the mail was nothing but welcoming letters to Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo. She was hoping for a distress Pokemon to send in some SOS mail. She sighed was just about to give up when she heard cries of help. Looking to her left, she sees a crying Azumarill calling for help of a rescue team.
"Please! Anybody?! Can Anybody help me out here!? Please....." She called out.
'I wonder what's her problem? She's obviously in trouble.' Wondered Latias.
The eon Pokemon flew towards the sad looking water-type Pokemon and asked her what is wrong.
"I lost my little sister, Bubbles somewhere on Mt. Horn. You see, we were traveling, trying to find some oran berries. But then, we were attacked by this Aerodactyl and it took my little sister, I managed to escape but my sister is still up there. I wanted to go up there on my own....but I couldn't find her anywhere in the cave of the mountain. I even tried to ask the rescue teams of the Wigglytuff Guild. However, no luck as they were all too busy trying doing their own missions. I really wish there was an rescue team available. I'll pay them anything, I don't care howmuch, I just want my little sister back." She sobbed.
Latias felt sad for her and place her claws on the Azumarill's shoulders. She gave determined look and smile at the Pokemon.
"Don't worry friend, I'll take the mission." Latias replied.
This shocked the Azumarill, She'll do it?! She'll really save her little sister, Bubbles?! As if reading her mind, Latias had answered her questions. The psychic-type Pokemon smiled at the Azumarill and placed her claws on her shoulders with a determined look on her face,
"I'll do it!"
"W-What?"
"I said. I'll do. It must be terrible, not being able to help out your little sister? Well, don't you worry. Me and my pal, Rainbow Dash will find her and bring her home. We are a rescue team known as 'The Rainbooms.'"
Azumarill wiped her tears and looked at the eon Pokemon in awe. This 'Rainbow Dash' must of been a pony friend of hers. She heard about the odd creatures that came from a distant planet and what had happened to said planet. To her, the creatures seem nice and friendly, however some are cautious and already want the creatures of Equus gone, someone like Mr. Maverick. She looked at the determined Latias and nodded, giving her a hopeful smile.
"Okay. Please save my sister....uh...what is your name?" She asked.
"My name is Latias. And don't worry, we will. Just stay here, I'll go get my friend Rainbow and tell her the news." She ordered as she dashed off to go find the rainbow pony.
-Flashback-
"No way!" Rainbow shouted.
"It's true. And she'll be trapped there forever if we don't do something about it." Latias said hastly.
Rainbow leaped off her seat and jumped right in front of the eon Pokemon with a determined grinned, plastered on her face.
"What kind of pony would I be to refuse help like that, I'm Rainbow Dash...one of the greatest heroes in Equestria!" She boasted. Twilight, Rarity and Applejack just rolled their eyes at how presumptuous their friend can be. But then they realized something, Rainbow and Latias can't go out there on their own. They had to help them get Bubbles back.
"Alright, Lati. Lead the way." Rainbow ordered. Before the Pokemon and Pony could leave the cafe however, Twilight and Applejack had stopped them from leaving.
"No, hold on just a minute, Sugarcubes. We are comin' witcha." Applejack said.
Latias was about to reply but Light and Orion beat her to the punch.
"Sorry, all of you can't. Only Latias and Rainbow are allowed to go." Light replied.
"And why the hay not?!" Both Applejack and Rainbow demanded.
"Well...for 1. Only four members of a rescue team are allowed to be in dungeons. This is because of the dungeons won't be so over crowded and your chances of getting lost are decreased significantly. And finally, for 2. you'll have to be an member of that rescue team and have some training under your built to join them. I'm sorry girls." The shiny Umbreon apologized.
The mane six were at a loss for words.
However, soon after; Rainbow grinned and looked at her friends.
"Don't worry girls. Me and Latias can handle this easily. Trust me." She winked.
The mane five sighed and told the two to be careful and wished the rescuers good luck.
Rainbow Dash and Latias are currently talking to the Azumarill about the situation at hand, She was surprised that she was right about Latias' partner. She already liked the mare's courage and kindness, willing to help out and bring bubbles back safely. The Azumarill hugged the mare and Latias tightly, crying tears of joy.
"Thank you! Thank you so much!"
"No problem. I also didn't catch your name." Latias said.
"Umi. It's Umi." She smiled as she wiped her tears. "You two better get going. Please save my little sister, I beg you." She pleaded.
"You can count on us." Rainbow Dash replied.
Latias and Rainbow Dash stood at the gate where the two Chesnaughts are guarding. The two had packed up 3 Pecha berries, 3 Oran berries, Spikes, Apples and an Escape Orb, just in case. They looked at each other and nodded to themselves, this will be their first mission so they have to give it their all.
"You ready?" Asked Latias.
"I was born ready!" Rainbow replied.
The two friends put on determined faces and walked down the dirt road ready for the challenge that awaits them.
'Don't worry Bubbles, We're coming to help.' Latias thought, not aware of the upcoming dangerous that awaits them ahead.
