A New Life in Equestriaby TrueBlueAdventurerChaptersA Fallen WorldMeeting the Mane SixThe PartyThe Doctor's Always WrongA Fallen WorldEverything was going great, the battle in the Shadow Realm was over, and we returned to our world, only to find it in the process of destruction. I noticed during the battle that our sworn enemy, the Bittercold, was waving his hands around, but I thought he has casting a spell to harm us. He was really casting a spell to destroy our world. I looked around at my friends and family. They were the most loyal ragtag group of misfits. I have grown strong with them and because of them. The muskadeers Virizion and Keldeo helped me to learn that friendship knows no bounds. When we first met Virizion, she was cold and wanted no part in any friendship. We found out that this was because Keldeo had sent her a letter that stated that he wasn’t her friend and that he never cared about her. As Keldeo was her best friend, this made her sad and caused her to turn away from friendship. Everything was explained, though, when we ventured to the Glacier Palace. I discovered Keldeo when I leaned against a wall after we found a frism that had his voice recorded on it. Keldeo admitted that he wrote the letter to prevent Virizion from falling into the trap of the Glacier Palace. After we defeated the Bittercold, and between my time back in the human world and when I had returned to the Pokemon world, Virizion and Keldeo became mates and were the sweetest couple in all of Paradise. The now-reformed Salamence, Kyurem, Munna, Toxicroak, and Purugly taught me that evil can become good. They were the ones who kept Keldeo trapped in the Glacier Palace, as well as being the Bittercold’s underlings. The brother-sister team of Espeon and Umbreon taught me the value of siblings. The two were the ones who brought us to the Glacier Palace using the cards they had gathered over their travels, the Entercards. Gurdurr and the Timburr twins, both carpenters, taught me to never give up. After someone acted like Gurdurr’s work meant nothing, he turned to a life of crime that we, along with the Timburr twins, convinced him to stop. My dog-turned-Lucario Bruiser taught me that anyone can change. My adopted Pikachu son Sparky and his Braixen mate, with whom he defeated Dark Matter, Flare taught me that love can last for years. Bruiser’s mate Gardevoir taught me that love can come to those who wait. Leavanny and her son Swadloon taught me the value of family, as did Herdier and his grandson Lillipup. Rampardos and his mate Cinccino inspired me to look for love in unlikely places. Dunsparce and his spunky friend Emolga taught me that friendship can give you courage.Dunsparce wanted nothing more but to help, but he just wasn’t strong enough to really do anything until he joined our team. Sir Quagsire and the Scraggy he convinced to join our side inspired me to be a hero and adventurer. Sparky’s surrogate father Nuzleaf and the Beheeyem who worked alongside him taught me that anyone can be corrupted, but it takes a true mon to break past it, Emolga’s mate Pachirisu and Dunsparce’s mate Lopunny taught me that love can be blind, but always right. Sparky’s old classmates Sawsbuck, Meowstic, Goodra, Accelgor, and Pangoro taught me the importance of your peers in your mental development. Hydreigon taught me to let loose and live a little. Hydreigon was the Voice of Life as well as the one who called me and Bruiser here to save the world from the Bittercold. When, through his help and power, we returned, he lost his immortality. The Expedition Society, made up of Jirachi, Celebi, Mew, Dedenne, Buizel, Bunnelby, Swirlix, Archen, Grovyle, Ampharos, and Mawile taught me to work together despite your differences.Sparky and Flare joined this team before they took on Dark Matter as they wanted adventure and excitement over their plain hometown. Azumarill taught me to stay on task. Cofagrigus taught me that appearances can be deceiving, while Victini taught me that strength and silliness can go hand in hand. Finally, my good friends Rexy and Indy taught me that, no matter the odds, you must do what’s right. And right now, we knew that getting out was our best option. Things were desperate, Owen, a-human-turned-Lucario, and Claire, a human-turned-Gardevoir, were embracing, clearly scared. These two had been through a lot. They had to suffer the events of the Indominus’s escape. In the end, they became close friends to the reformed beast who now went by the name Indy. Indy had found love in Rexy. Shaymin, our nurse, was opening a portal for our escape using her Seed Flare attack. Swanna was cuddling close to her mate Hydreigon while Meloetta was singing about the end of days. Zach and Grey, a Charizard and a Fennekin, were hugging, Zach trying to make Grey feel calm despite being afraid himself. Zach and Grey had a history with Rexy and Indy as well, having been inside a Gyrosphere while the Indominus battled an Ankylosaurus and attacked the Gyrosphere. Sparky’s kids, the Fennekins Flame, Pyro, and Seraphina, and the Pichus Electro and Elesa, were huddling close to their parents. My mates sisters, Charlie, a Leafeon, Delta, a Vaporeon, and Echo, a Jolteon, were trying to protect my and Blue’s, a Flareon, kids Beta, Gamma, and Omega, all Eevees. Blue and her sisters were born as attractions for Jurassic World. A man named Vic Hoskins planned to use them for military purposes. He may have been wrong about the human military, but in the Pokemon World, they were the most loyal and fierce fighters of their size. I and Blue fell for each other after a few months of her being in the Pokemon World, though I nearly ruined it by expecting more than she could give. We fought, but after a battle with the Bittercold which nearly led to my death, we admitted our love, and became mates. “Michael, how can we recover from this?” Blue asked me, scared. “I-I don’t know, I don’t think we’ll even escape in time,” I said, knowing time was counting down and that Shaymin was taking a while. ‘C’mon Shaymin, hurry up!’ I thought, scared. That was until the portal flared open, we looked towards the sky and looked down and saw a beautiful sight, an army of legendaries were there. Standing and flying before us were Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Raikou, Entei, Suicune, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Latias, Latios, Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Deoxys, Dialga, Palkia, Phione, Manaphy, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Heatran, Regigigas, Giratina, Cresselia, Darkrai, Arceus, Cobalion, Terrakion, Tornadus, Thundurus, Reshiram, Zekrom, Landorus, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde, Diancie, Hoopa, and Volcanion. “Go! The portal will only last long enough for us all to get through!” Arceus bellowed. “Just how many other Pokemon were saved?!” I asked. “All of the rescue teams were saved!” Arceus said, raising our hopes. ‘At least the Pokemon we’ve befriended escaped,” I thought, hopeful. Without further question, we all rushed into the portal. On the other side was another world. A world that felt familiar in a strange way. ‘I know this place, but I don’t know why. I could swear I’ve seen this place before.’ I pondered. I picked myself off the ground and brushed myself off. Then I noticed something. ‘I’m a different shade of blue than I was before. Wait… is my paw a hoof?’ I inspected my limb. ‘It is!’ I rushed to a nearby window. ‘Wait, this is me? Why am I a unicorn? Wait, I’m a blue unicorn with brown hair and big eyes. I must be in Equestria. And if this is Equestria, then I must have my Cutie Mark!’ I turned to the side and noticed that I did have my cutie mark, a shield and sword, a representation of my bravery and nobility in the face of battle. I looked back at my friends. ‘Wait, there are a lot less than when we left. I wonder what happened to them. I hope they’re okay.’ Everyone was gone, except for Blue and Sparky who were turned into pegasi. Blue was colored like her raptor form and even had a raptor claw for her cutie mark. Sparky was yellow with red cheeks and a black mane. He had a lightning bolt for a cutie mark. Blue stared at me just as strong as I stared at her. She realized what I was staring at when she rushed to a window and saw herself. Sparky did the same. Blue’s jaw dropped in disbelief of what happened but Sparky started bouncing up and down. ‘Heh, he reminds me of Pinkie Pie.’ Blue rained on his parade though, “Guys, I don’t think you remember but our world was just destroyed. Worse, the kids, and everyone else, are gone. They might not have even made it; they might be dead for all we know.” Sparky and I bowed our heads at this, realizing that she was right, “I recommend we blend into this society until we find them.” We nodded our heads, agreeing with her. I only hoped that we might find our friends and family again. Suddenly, a pink pony I knew was Pinkie Pie bounced down the street, humming the Smile Song. ‘I guess even thinking about the devil can make him appear,' I thought, laughing to myself. Pinkie’s eyes were closed, which caused her to bump into me. She opened her eyes and saw me and my family and gasped, leaping into the air. “You’re new in Ponyville aren’t you? Well, I’ve never seen you around here, so you must be new here. You see that castle over there?” She said motioning to Twilight’s castle; I nodded my head not wanting to interrupt Pinkie. “Well, go there at sundown and we’ll have a party!” She said, zooming off. ‘Well, that’s the Pinkie Pie I know and love.’ I thought, watching who I deemed to be the best pony fade into the distance. “Who or what was that?” Sparky asked, weirded out. “That was my favorite pony ever: Pinkie Pie!” I shouted, fanboying over meeting her. “Guys follow me,” I said, knowing the layout of Ponyville. ‘I can’t decide if this is a nightmare or a dream, but either way, don’t wake me up if I am asleep.’ Meeting the Mane SixI led us to a farm. I noticed the barn was a bit in disrepair. “Here is Sweet Apple Acres, home to one of the best ponies around.” I explained, when a board flew out of the front of the barn, a cyan blue hoof poking through it, ‘And being destroyed by the only pony, other than Pinkie, better than her.’ I walked up to the barn and shouted out the name of the pony, attracting her attention. She stopped and flew down, landing in front of us. “Yes, you called?” She asked surprised that somepony she didn’t know knew her name. “I must say I’m a huge fan of yours,” I said, a giant smile on my face. “Heh, thanks, but how do you know me?” “Are you kidding? How can I not know the awesomeness, radicalness, and coolness of the great and legendary Rainbow Dash?” I emphasized my words by pointing around my hoof. I could tell that this stroked Rainbow Dash’s ego, but a cleared throat from a nearby ditch stopped her from saying anything. “Rainbow Dash, could ya get back ta work?” The pony, who I identified as Applejack, asked impatiently. Rainbow zoomed back into the sky. “I’d take cover if I were you.” Me, Blue, and Sparky dashed into the ditch Applejack was in. I covered Sparky, using my body as a shield. Blue covered herself with her wings. Rainbow Dash flew down at high speed and ran straight through the roof of the barn. It was destroyed in a rainbow mushroom cloud. The debris fell on us. We shook it off of us. It was mostly dust and wood, the glass having already been removed. “Hoo-whee, that did it Rainbow Dash! Anyway who are y’all anyway?” “I’m Michael, this is Blue and Sparky. We’re refugees from a world that was destroyed by a vile villain as a last act to destroy us when he died. Worse, we lost our friends and family and don’t know if they’re somewhere else in this world, in another world, or dead in the middle of the portal or back in the world we left behind,” I explained, bowing my head in sorrow. Applejack stared at us, though I could tell she was crying on the inside. “I’m sure sorry ta hear dat, sugarcube. I can’t say I know how it feels to lose a world, but ah do know how it feels ta lose someone dear to ya,” She said, pulling us into a hug. ‘Thanks AJ, you really know how to make someone feel better. I just wish I could do the same with your parents.’ I thought, knowing who she had lost. When she released me, Rainbow gave me a bear hug. “I’m sorry about what happened to your world, friends, and family, I swear if that jerk comes here, I’ll take him out myself!” Rainbow said, causing me to smile. ‘Of course you will Rainbow Dash, dear Element of Loyalty.’ I thought joking respectfully. We climbed out of the ditch and started walking towards the entrance of the farm. “Where ya off ta, sugarcube?” Applejack called. “We’ve still to meet Fluttershy, Twilight, and Rarity,” I explained. Applejack and Rainbow Dash waved us goodbye as we headed off to Carousel Boutique. When we arrived, we could hear a commotion. ‘I wonder what’s up?’ I knocked on the door which was answered by a distressed Rarity. ‘Must’ve gotten Pinkie’s memo.’ “Hello Rarity, I’m Michael, this is Blue and Sparky, we’re the new ponies in town. I must say I love your work.” Rarity lit up at this. “Oh thank you darling, what would you say was my finest work?” “I would have to say… your Gala dresses were the best. But really Rarity, you don’t need to be formal with us. Where we came from, no one wore clothes and everyone was dirty after every job, really you would be doing extra work if you try to make yourselves look good for us.” She sighed with relief. “Oh, thank you! And I think my gala dresses were good too.” She brought us into the boutique. Sitting there was Fluttershy, Twilight, Starlight, Spike, and Thorax. “Hello, everypony, I’m Michael, this is Blue and Sparky,” I introduced myself to them, Starlight, Spike, Thorax, and Fluttershy waved while Twilight approached us. “Hello, Michael, Blue, Sparky, I have a question for you,” She said. I nodded my head and motioned with my hoof for her to go on. “Are you familiar with a large group who arrived outside Ponyville and Canterlot?” “What are their names?” She produced a pad and paper, clearly there were a lot. “They are Owen, Claire, Zach, Grey, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Rexy, Indy, Bruiser, Beta, Gamma, Omega, Flame, Flare, Pyro, Seraphina, Kyurem, Virizion, Keldeo, Munna, Toxicroak, Salamence, Purugly, Electro, Elesa, Grovyle, Quagsire, Azumarill, Umbreon, Espeon, Beheeyem, Nuzleaf, Hydreigon, Cofagrigus, Victini, Celebi, Mew, Dragonite, Gardevoir, Swanna, Emolga, Dunsparce, Rampardos, Cinccino, Herdier, Lillipup, Gurdurr, Timburr, Timburr, Leavanny, Swadloon, Goodra, Sawsbuck, Accelgor, Pangoro, Ampharos, Dedenne, Buizel, Bunnelby, Swirlix, Mawile, Pachirisu, Lopunny, Meowstic, Archen, Goodra, Jirachi, Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Raikou, Entei, Suicune, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Latias, Latios, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Deoxys, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Dialga, Palkia, Heatran, Regigigas, Giratina, Cresselia, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Cobalion, Terrakion, Tornadus, Thundurus, Reshiram, Zekrom, Landorus, Meloetta, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde, Diancie, Hoopa, and Volcanion. Sound familiar?” ‘Thank heavens, our friends and family are still alive.’ I thought, relieved. My, Sparky, and Blue’s eyes and jaws shot open as wide as they possible could. “Know them?! They’re our dearest friends and family! We were separated when we came here when our world was destroyed!” I hugged Twilight tightly and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Blue gave me the stink eye at this. I rushed over to her, and pinned her down. “Blue, our children are alive and on this planet!” I kissed Blue on the lips, hugging her, for as long as our breaths would allow, our eyes pouring tears. “Are they coming to the party at the castle?” I had to know. “Yes, actually, they are,” Twilight said causing me to hop up and down Pinkie Pie style. ‘Oh my gosh, my family and my friends are still alive, are going to the party tonight, and we’ll all be together, happy, safe, and sound.’ I thought, giggling. I dashed out of the boutique and ran to the Ponyville Library, rebuilt but now just an ordinary building. The denizens of Ponyville felt that it was better that way. ‘I better prepare myself, there’s no way it’ll be as simple as just meeting with my family and friends again. No matter what happens, I need to be prepared. Even the Bittercold himself could appear, and I would have to stop him.’ I read through a magic spell book and practiced it, failing after a few attempts, but eventually mastering the middle level of teleportation, magic blasts, shielding, and telekinesis. I could only teleport myself from Canterlot to Ponyville, unlike Twilight who can teleport from one point in Equestria to another. My magic blasts could only stun, they couldn’t do any serious damage. I could only produce a weak shield that would only protect me. Telekinesis, being the most basic magic spell, was the only spell I could truly master, even then I could only lift something that weighed as much as Blue or Sparky. Beyond that, I couldn’t budge whatever the object was. Afterwards, I treated us all to a dinner at Sugar Cube Corner seeing as our Poke had turned into bits upon arrival in this world. The Cakes were busy with their latest order, which was likely for our party, as we noticed Vinyl Scratch, Octavia Melody, Lyra Heartstrings, Bon Bon, Derpy Hooves, her kids, and Doctor Hooves all heading for the castle, along with several other ponies I knew less although I could identify Minuette and the Flower ponies among them. I knew that this was going to be a massive turn out. I turned to the others and said, “Well, looks like Pinkie Pie invited half the town to our little party. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, I mean, it is Pinkie we’re talking about.” I could tell from the looks on their faces that they didn’t get what I was saying. “Right, I guess you don’t know her as well as I do. You see, she’s a super duper party pony. Her parties are always the best!” Sparky and Blue nodded and smiled as they finished their dinners. The PartyAfter dinner, we headed to the castle, as it was nearly sundown. I noticed that the party did have a huge turnout as I had expected. The Royal Sisters were there, Shining Armor, Princess Cadence, and Flurry Heart along with them. Mr. and Mrs. Cake along with their kids were among them as were Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Twist, Snips, Snails, Pipsqueak, Featherweight, Discord, Trixie, A.K. Yearling, Mayor Mare, Bulk Biceps, Berryshine and her daughter Ruby Pinch, Bon Bon, Lyra, the Flower Ponies, Derpy and her family, Golden Harvest, Minuette, and Sea Swirl. We arrived, and noticed that Vinyl and Octavia were setting up. Greta and Gilda were sitting near each other in the lobby opposite of Cranky and Matilda. We noticed Big Macintosh had Cheerliee leaning on him. We looked around and found our friends and family. We called to them, and they recognized us. We ran up to them, as Beta, Gamma, Omega, Charlie, Delta, and Echo ran up to us. Sparky sprinted to his kids, parents, and Flare. None of them were ponies. We realized that the portal was meant to put us where me, Sparky, and Blue landed and we were mostly supposed to be ponies, but Arceus’s expanding the portal caused the error. “Fillies and Gentlecolts!” Pinkie shouted. “Our newest friends have found each other again, so let’s party!” With that, the party kicked up to high gear. Pinkie walked up to us. “I found out everyone else’s names, but don’t worry; they told me who you three were!” She said, bouncing off. Yearling approached us and motioned for me, my family and friends to head into a side room. “Alright, what’s really going on here?” She asked. “I doubt you’re really as innocent as you seem.” Everyone but me looked at her like she was crazy. She rolled her eyes and stripped down, revealing, no surprise to me, that she was Daring Do. She placed her hat on her head. ‘Daring Do, I wasn’t expecting you here,” I thought sarcastically. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but we’re innocent,” I explained. “Well, keep your eyes out, changelings have been spotted around here, and I don’t mean Thorax.” “We’ll keep our eyes peeled,” I said, saluting her. “I will too,” Thorax said, entering the room. “Eyes peeled on what?” Mewtwo asked, until we realized there were two of them. Mewtwo, who we knew had to be the real one, used Shadow Ball on the imposter, revealing her to not only be a changeling, but the Queen herself. Daring readied herself for a fight as the Main Six, the princesses, Derpy and Dr. Hooves entered the room to check out the commotion. They all got ready to fight. Chrysalis stood up, blasting at us with her horn. Thorax approached her. “Your highness, wait!” He yelled, trying to catch her attention. It worked, and all attention was on him. “I’ve spent time with these ponies,” he said motioning to the Mane Six, “their unconditional love and friendship for who I am has kept me full. Maybe we changelings can live in peace with ponies, rather than invading them and stealing their love.” The queen’s face softened, realizing that perhaps this changeling wasn’t wrong, but her face turned cold again as she blasted Thorax. He was sent flying into a wall, knocking him out. “You foolish imp! You think that I would ever live in peace with ponies that hate us and will never see us for who we are inside!?” She readied another blast until Kyurem stepped in. “STOP THIS FOOLISHNESS!” He bellowed, stopping Chrysalis in her tracks. “I was once in your hooves, until someone showed me that darkness and treachery was not the way. You can change, as I have. All you need is help to get there. We can help you, if you’ll let us.” Chrysalis softened up again. “There, you go, now let me tell you about my past so you can see how far I had fallen before Michael picked me back up. I was ready for my world to be destroyed; I saw the world as one large dark pit. I saw no good in the world, that destruction was the only fate that suited the world. I would have stopped at nothing to destroy it myself. I even killed the Voice of Life to stop him from helping those who were willing to destroy the one who would and, years later, did destroy our world. “But then I was offered a chance to change when they defeated me. I saw that their comradery meant that the world still had a chance, that the world wasn’t as bleak as I had believed. I defected from the enemy’s side and turned towards the peaceful life I now live. I am much happier now than I ever was working for that monster. So, if I can change through simply being shown that light still exists in the world, you can change too. Now, just follow us out, and we will make sure the ponies love you. “ Chrysalis actually followed us, smiling at the princesses, who smiled back. I could see that they realized that she could change and were willing to embrace that fact. The party followed without another incident. Daring Do switched back into Yearling, and joined in the festivities. Bon Bon whispered into Yearling’s ear and Yearling nodded. Gilda and Greta swayed to the music. When Octavia started her next song, me and Blue slow-danced together, which seemed odd to me due to my not being used to doing anything on two legs since I had left what was left of Jurassic World back when I had brought Blue, her sisters, Owen, Claire, the kids, Rexy, and Indy to the Pokemon World. I saw Bon Bon and Lyra slow-dancing as well. Everyone stopped when Chrysalis and Thorax took to the air. They danced together in a beautiful aerial waltz. I saw the hope that I was barely clinging onto in the eyes of everypony, but especially in Chrysalis. I knew then, that, even though our world was destroyed despite our best efforts to stop it, there was hope for us in this world of Little Ponies. Whatever came of us, whatever disaster struck, whatever villain attacked, we knew we could handle it as long as we stuck together as friends and family. The Doctor's Always WrongThat night, we slept in the castle. When we awoke, Rarity ran into the room, panicking. “Guys, this is dreadful! Fluttershy’s been captured! A human dragged her away…” “What did he look like?” I asked, fearing the response. “Well, he looked like a doctor but from the way he acted, I knew he was no physician.” I sneered, knowing exactly who she was talking about. ‘Oh no, not him again,’ I thought, sighing. The Doctor was an enemy of mine. He had captured Blue in the past, tortured her, and gave her a disease to wipe out the Pokemon World. The disease was nasty, just by standing near them, you felt nausea and headaches. The sufferer had it worse, though, as they suffered, along with nausea and headaches, paralysis, muscle ache, sweats while cold, shivering while warm, and finally, if not treated in 72 hours, death. When Blue returned, she was very ill, and I had to go out and get the antidote, as I was the only one who wasn’t affected by it. Why I wasn’t is still a mystery to me. I barely made it back in time. The Doctor had chased me down, ready to stop me. In the end, though, I managed to make it back with the antidote; and saved Blue’s life. I had mere seconds left to cure her. I was sure that she had died as she didn’t move for several minutes. I had entered depression, believing my mate and the mother of my children was gone. I couldn’t have been happier when she finally awoke. I hoped the doctor died when our world was destroyed, but instead he was in this world; as if nothing happened. Worse, she captured the sweetest, most innocent pony in the whole world. I dashed out of the castle, Blue alongside, where Twilight, Spike, Thorax, Chrysalis, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Starlight, and Pinkie Pie all stood. I could tell by the looks on their faces that they were ready to take their friend back. ‘I hope it’s not too late!’ “So, Rarity, where’d he head off to?” I asked. “He was headed towards a warehouse near Sweet Apple Acres.” Rarity replied, Applejack was furious at this and ran towards the warehouse, us following. When we got there, we could hear screaming, Fluttershy’s screams. The Doctor’s sick experiments had already begun. We had to get her out now or there would be very little hope for her survival. She was far more fragile than Blue, she would likely not survive the same type of torture the doctor performed. We found the window he was operating in front of. ‘There you are, you monster.’ “Alright, Blue, you, Twilight, Spike, Thorax, Starlight, Rarity, and Pinkie free Fluttershy while Chrysalis, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and I hold the Doctor off.” They all nodded their heads, going along with the plan. Then, the Doctor activated his machine, sending electricity surging through Fluttershy’s body. She was convulsing as much as she could, being tied down. Tears fell down her cheeks as she begged him to stop. Rainbow and I burst into the room, sending glass raining down on the Doctor. I hit him with a magic blast, holding him still with my magic, while Rainbow punched him hard in the jaw. Blue rushed over and turned off the machine, ending Fluttershy’s torment. Twilight removed her bonds, as she pulled Twilight into a hug, tears continuing to fall. Rainbow punched him over and over, while Applejack kicked him in the stomach, and Chrysalis and I kept hitting him with magic blasts. “Don’t touch Fluttershy!” Rainbow screamed, landing another punch on the man. I could tell he was about to go down, but I felt it wasn’t enough; I launched another magic blast, hitting him between the eyes. This final hit made him fall. I called off the others; and stood on top of the monster of a man. “Where’s the antidote?” I asked, only for the Doctor to shrug the question off. I wasn’t having any of it, I shook him hard and screamed, “Tell me right now, you monster, where’s the antidote?!” He still didn’t respond. I punched him in the face, sending his head down to the ground again. “I’ll ask this one last time, and if I don’t get an answer, I’ll kill you. Where is the antidote!?” He stared into my eyes and headbutted me. I reeled back, shocked by the hit. Rainbow backed me up by punching him down again. “You’ll tell me where the antidote is or you’ll taste my hoof!” She screamed, “Fluttershy’s my best friend, so I want her better. Where’s the antidote?!” “You won’t need it,” He finally said, “I didn’t inject her yet.” This came as a relief to us; we didn’t have to worry about a fiasco being started by the first true human in Equestria. Rainbow punched him again, just for good measure. “Alright ponies, let’s get out of here.” “But what about him?” I asked. “Isn’t it obvious?” Twilight asked; I tilted my head, unsure of what she meant, “We have to turn him in to the proper authorities which, in this case, would be the Canterlot dungeon.” “Alright, but, who’s going to take him there?” “I and Thorax will,” Chrysalis said, Thorax nodding. “Be careful you two,” I said. “Don’t worry, we will,” Chrysalis said, winking. And with that, we left the warehouse-turned-lab, Fluttershy along with us. Fluttershy was still crying about everything, Rainbow Dash comforting her. “Fluttershy, you know not all humans are like him, right?” I asked, ready to tell them about my past. “What do you mean?” Rainbow asked. “Well, just take me. I was born a human and, until Hydreigon contacted me, I lived as a human in the human world. I became the hero of the Pokemon World, destroying the Bittercold. When I felt down that everyone but me had someone to love, I decided to find someone, that someone being Blue. Before long, she and I were the proud parents of Beta, Gamma, and Omega. As for how Sparky is linked to me, well, he came from a long line of humans who went to the Pokemon world to save it from a crisis. He, along with Flare, defeated a being known as Dark Matter. He moved to Post Town as he wanted to find a family to replace the one he never had. I decided to give him what he wanted, and Blue and I are his adopted parents because of it. Of course, I had to return to the human world, and Hydreigon helped me come back, which cost him his role as the Voice of Life, so he’s mortal now. But, anyways, I’m sure, now, that you can see that humans aren’t evil by default.” This made her feel better, as she perked up after my story. The other ponies and Spike stared at me in disbelief. But their faces quickly changed when they realized that everything matched up and made sense with what I was telling them. Then, I remembered that our world had been destroyed just yesterday. I bowed my head; and started to cry myself. “What’s wrong, sugarcube?” Applejack asked, concerned. “It’s just, I was talking about saving my world when I know that I watched it be destroyed in front of me without being able to do anything but escape here,” I said, crying, “Girls, Spike, I need you to promise one thing to me.” They paid attention, nodding their heads, “I need you to Pinkie Pie promise that you will fight for your world, no matter what it takes.” Their response was unanimous: “Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.” They motioned as usual with the promise. I smiled wide and gave them a group hug. ‘Guys, you’re all so nice to help someone you only recently met,” I thought, my tears going away.
A Fallen WorldEverything was going great, the battle in the Shadow Realm was over, and we returned to our world, only to find it in the process of destruction. I noticed during the battle that our sworn enemy, the Bittercold, was waving his hands around, but I thought he has casting a spell to harm us. He was really casting a spell to destroy our world. I looked around at my friends and family. They were the most loyal ragtag group of misfits. I have grown strong with them and because of them. The muskadeers Virizion and Keldeo helped me to learn that friendship knows no bounds. When we first met Virizion, she was cold and wanted no part in any friendship. We found out that this was because Keldeo had sent her a letter that stated that he wasn’t her friend and that he never cared about her. As Keldeo was her best friend, this made her sad and caused her to turn away from friendship. Everything was explained, though, when we ventured to the Glacier Palace. I discovered Keldeo when I leaned against a wall after we found a frism that had his voice recorded on it. Keldeo admitted that he wrote the letter to prevent Virizion from falling into the trap of the Glacier Palace. After we defeated the Bittercold, and between my time back in the human world and when I had returned to the Pokemon world, Virizion and Keldeo became mates and were the sweetest couple in all of Paradise. The now-reformed Salamence, Kyurem, Munna, Toxicroak, and Purugly taught me that evil can become good. They were the ones who kept Keldeo trapped in the Glacier Palace, as well as being the Bittercold’s underlings. The brother-sister team of Espeon and Umbreon taught me the value of siblings. The two were the ones who brought us to the Glacier Palace using the cards they had gathered over their travels, the Entercards. Gurdurr and the Timburr twins, both carpenters, taught me to never give up. After someone acted like Gurdurr’s work meant nothing, he turned to a life of crime that we, along with the Timburr twins, convinced him to stop. My dog-turned-Lucario Bruiser taught me that anyone can change. My adopted Pikachu son Sparky and his Braixen mate, with whom he defeated Dark Matter, Flare taught me that love can last for years. Bruiser’s mate Gardevoir taught me that love can come to those who wait. Leavanny and her son Swadloon taught me the value of family, as did Herdier and his grandson Lillipup. Rampardos and his mate Cinccino inspired me to look for love in unlikely places. Dunsparce and his spunky friend Emolga taught me that friendship can give you courage.Dunsparce wanted nothing more but to help, but he just wasn’t strong enough to really do anything until he joined our team. Sir Quagsire and the Scraggy he convinced to join our side inspired me to be a hero and adventurer. Sparky’s surrogate father Nuzleaf and the Beheeyem who worked alongside him taught me that anyone can be corrupted, but it takes a true mon to break past it, Emolga’s mate Pachirisu and Dunsparce’s mate Lopunny taught me that love can be blind, but always right. Sparky’s old classmates Sawsbuck, Meowstic, Goodra, Accelgor, and Pangoro taught me the importance of your peers in your mental development. Hydreigon taught me to let loose and live a little. Hydreigon was the Voice of Life as well as the one who called me and Bruiser here to save the world from the Bittercold. When, through his help and power, we returned, he lost his immortality. The Expedition Society, made up of Jirachi, Celebi, Mew, Dedenne, Buizel, Bunnelby, Swirlix, Archen, Grovyle, Ampharos, and Mawile taught me to work together despite your differences.Sparky and Flare joined this team before they took on Dark Matter as they wanted adventure and excitement over their plain hometown. Azumarill taught me to stay on task. Cofagrigus taught me that appearances can be deceiving, while Victini taught me that strength and silliness can go hand in hand. Finally, my good friends Rexy and Indy taught me that, no matter the odds, you must do what’s right. And right now, we knew that getting out was our best option. Things were desperate, Owen, a-human-turned-Lucario, and Claire, a human-turned-Gardevoir, were embracing, clearly scared. These two had been through a lot. They had to suffer the events of the Indominus’s escape. In the end, they became close friends to the reformed beast who now went by the name Indy. Indy had found love in Rexy. Shaymin, our nurse, was opening a portal for our escape using her Seed Flare attack. Swanna was cuddling close to her mate Hydreigon while Meloetta was singing about the end of days. Zach and Grey, a Charizard and a Fennekin, were hugging, Zach trying to make Grey feel calm despite being afraid himself. Zach and Grey had a history with Rexy and Indy as well, having been inside a Gyrosphere while the Indominus battled an Ankylosaurus and attacked the Gyrosphere. Sparky’s kids, the Fennekins Flame, Pyro, and Seraphina, and the Pichus Electro and Elesa, were huddling close to their parents. My mates sisters, Charlie, a Leafeon, Delta, a Vaporeon, and Echo, a Jolteon, were trying to protect my and Blue’s, a Flareon, kids Beta, Gamma, and Omega, all Eevees. Blue and her sisters were born as attractions for Jurassic World. A man named Vic Hoskins planned to use them for military purposes. He may have been wrong about the human military, but in the Pokemon World, they were the most loyal and fierce fighters of their size. I and Blue fell for each other after a few months of her being in the Pokemon World, though I nearly ruined it by expecting more than she could give. We fought, but after a battle with the Bittercold which nearly led to my death, we admitted our love, and became mates. “Michael, how can we recover from this?” Blue asked me, scared. “I-I don’t know, I don’t think we’ll even escape in time,” I said, knowing time was counting down and that Shaymin was taking a while. ‘C’mon Shaymin, hurry up!’ I thought, scared. That was until the portal flared open, we looked towards the sky and looked down and saw a beautiful sight, an army of legendaries were there. Standing and flying before us were Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Raikou, Entei, Suicune, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Latias, Latios, Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Deoxys, Dialga, Palkia, Phione, Manaphy, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Heatran, Regigigas, Giratina, Cresselia, Darkrai, Arceus, Cobalion, Terrakion, Tornadus, Thundurus, Reshiram, Zekrom, Landorus, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde, Diancie, Hoopa, and Volcanion. “Go! The portal will only last long enough for us all to get through!” Arceus bellowed. “Just how many other Pokemon were saved?!” I asked. “All of the rescue teams were saved!” Arceus said, raising our hopes. ‘At least the Pokemon we’ve befriended escaped,” I thought, hopeful. Without further question, we all rushed into the portal. On the other side was another world. A world that felt familiar in a strange way. ‘I know this place, but I don’t know why. I could swear I’ve seen this place before.’ I pondered. I picked myself off the ground and brushed myself off. Then I noticed something. ‘I’m a different shade of blue than I was before. Wait… is my paw a hoof?’ I inspected my limb. ‘It is!’ I rushed to a nearby window. ‘Wait, this is me? Why am I a unicorn? Wait, I’m a blue unicorn with brown hair and big eyes. I must be in Equestria. And if this is Equestria, then I must have my Cutie Mark!’ I turned to the side and noticed that I did have my cutie mark, a shield and sword, a representation of my bravery and nobility in the face of battle. I looked back at my friends. ‘Wait, there are a lot less than when we left. I wonder what happened to them. I hope they’re okay.’ Everyone was gone, except for Blue and Sparky who were turned into pegasi. Blue was colored like her raptor form and even had a raptor claw for her cutie mark. Sparky was yellow with red cheeks and a black mane. He had a lightning bolt for a cutie mark. Blue stared at me just as strong as I stared at her. She realized what I was staring at when she rushed to a window and saw herself. Sparky did the same. Blue’s jaw dropped in disbelief of what happened but Sparky started bouncing up and down. ‘Heh, he reminds me of Pinkie Pie.’ Blue rained on his parade though, “Guys, I don’t think you remember but our world was just destroyed. Worse, the kids, and everyone else, are gone. They might not have even made it; they might be dead for all we know.” Sparky and I bowed our heads at this, realizing that she was right, “I recommend we blend into this society until we find them.” We nodded our heads, agreeing with her. I only hoped that we might find our friends and family again. Suddenly, a pink pony I knew was Pinkie Pie bounced down the street, humming the Smile Song. ‘I guess even thinking about the devil can make him appear,' I thought, laughing to myself. Pinkie’s eyes were closed, which caused her to bump into me. She opened her eyes and saw me and my family and gasped, leaping into the air. “You’re new in Ponyville aren’t you? Well, I’ve never seen you around here, so you must be new here. You see that castle over there?” She said motioning to Twilight’s castle; I nodded my head not wanting to interrupt Pinkie. “Well, go there at sundown and we’ll have a party!” She said, zooming off. ‘Well, that’s the Pinkie Pie I know and love.’ I thought, watching who I deemed to be the best pony fade into the distance. “Who or what was that?” Sparky asked, weirded out. “That was my favorite pony ever: Pinkie Pie!” I shouted, fanboying over meeting her. “Guys follow me,” I said, knowing the layout of Ponyville. ‘I can’t decide if this is a nightmare or a dream, but either way, don’t wake me up if I am asleep.’
Meeting the Mane SixI led us to a farm. I noticed the barn was a bit in disrepair. “Here is Sweet Apple Acres, home to one of the best ponies around.” I explained, when a board flew out of the front of the barn, a cyan blue hoof poking through it, ‘And being destroyed by the only pony, other than Pinkie, better than her.’ I walked up to the barn and shouted out the name of the pony, attracting her attention. She stopped and flew down, landing in front of us. “Yes, you called?” She asked surprised that somepony she didn’t know knew her name. “I must say I’m a huge fan of yours,” I said, a giant smile on my face. “Heh, thanks, but how do you know me?” “Are you kidding? How can I not know the awesomeness, radicalness, and coolness of the great and legendary Rainbow Dash?” I emphasized my words by pointing around my hoof. I could tell that this stroked Rainbow Dash’s ego, but a cleared throat from a nearby ditch stopped her from saying anything. “Rainbow Dash, could ya get back ta work?” The pony, who I identified as Applejack, asked impatiently. Rainbow zoomed back into the sky. “I’d take cover if I were you.” Me, Blue, and Sparky dashed into the ditch Applejack was in. I covered Sparky, using my body as a shield. Blue covered herself with her wings. Rainbow Dash flew down at high speed and ran straight through the roof of the barn. It was destroyed in a rainbow mushroom cloud. The debris fell on us. We shook it off of us. It was mostly dust and wood, the glass having already been removed. “Hoo-whee, that did it Rainbow Dash! Anyway who are y’all anyway?” “I’m Michael, this is Blue and Sparky. We’re refugees from a world that was destroyed by a vile villain as a last act to destroy us when he died. Worse, we lost our friends and family and don’t know if they’re somewhere else in this world, in another world, or dead in the middle of the portal or back in the world we left behind,” I explained, bowing my head in sorrow. Applejack stared at us, though I could tell she was crying on the inside. “I’m sure sorry ta hear dat, sugarcube. I can’t say I know how it feels to lose a world, but ah do know how it feels ta lose someone dear to ya,” She said, pulling us into a hug. ‘Thanks AJ, you really know how to make someone feel better. I just wish I could do the same with your parents.’ I thought, knowing who she had lost. When she released me, Rainbow gave me a bear hug. “I’m sorry about what happened to your world, friends, and family, I swear if that jerk comes here, I’ll take him out myself!” Rainbow said, causing me to smile. ‘Of course you will Rainbow Dash, dear Element of Loyalty.’ I thought joking respectfully. We climbed out of the ditch and started walking towards the entrance of the farm. “Where ya off ta, sugarcube?” Applejack called. “We’ve still to meet Fluttershy, Twilight, and Rarity,” I explained. Applejack and Rainbow Dash waved us goodbye as we headed off to Carousel Boutique. When we arrived, we could hear a commotion. ‘I wonder what’s up?’ I knocked on the door which was answered by a distressed Rarity. ‘Must’ve gotten Pinkie’s memo.’ “Hello Rarity, I’m Michael, this is Blue and Sparky, we’re the new ponies in town. I must say I love your work.” Rarity lit up at this. “Oh thank you darling, what would you say was my finest work?” “I would have to say… your Gala dresses were the best. But really Rarity, you don’t need to be formal with us. Where we came from, no one wore clothes and everyone was dirty after every job, really you would be doing extra work if you try to make yourselves look good for us.” She sighed with relief. “Oh, thank you! And I think my gala dresses were good too.” She brought us into the boutique. Sitting there was Fluttershy, Twilight, Starlight, Spike, and Thorax. “Hello, everypony, I’m Michael, this is Blue and Sparky,” I introduced myself to them, Starlight, Spike, Thorax, and Fluttershy waved while Twilight approached us. “Hello, Michael, Blue, Sparky, I have a question for you,” She said. I nodded my head and motioned with my hoof for her to go on. “Are you familiar with a large group who arrived outside Ponyville and Canterlot?” “What are their names?” She produced a pad and paper, clearly there were a lot. “They are Owen, Claire, Zach, Grey, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Rexy, Indy, Bruiser, Beta, Gamma, Omega, Flame, Flare, Pyro, Seraphina, Kyurem, Virizion, Keldeo, Munna, Toxicroak, Salamence, Purugly, Electro, Elesa, Grovyle, Quagsire, Azumarill, Umbreon, Espeon, Beheeyem, Nuzleaf, Hydreigon, Cofagrigus, Victini, Celebi, Mew, Dragonite, Gardevoir, Swanna, Emolga, Dunsparce, Rampardos, Cinccino, Herdier, Lillipup, Gurdurr, Timburr, Timburr, Leavanny, Swadloon, Goodra, Sawsbuck, Accelgor, Pangoro, Ampharos, Dedenne, Buizel, Bunnelby, Swirlix, Mawile, Pachirisu, Lopunny, Meowstic, Archen, Goodra, Jirachi, Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Raikou, Entei, Suicune, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Latias, Latios, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Deoxys, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Dialga, Palkia, Heatran, Regigigas, Giratina, Cresselia, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Cobalion, Terrakion, Tornadus, Thundurus, Reshiram, Zekrom, Landorus, Meloetta, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde, Diancie, Hoopa, and Volcanion. Sound familiar?” ‘Thank heavens, our friends and family are still alive.’ I thought, relieved. My, Sparky, and Blue’s eyes and jaws shot open as wide as they possible could. “Know them?! They’re our dearest friends and family! We were separated when we came here when our world was destroyed!” I hugged Twilight tightly and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Blue gave me the stink eye at this. I rushed over to her, and pinned her down. “Blue, our children are alive and on this planet!” I kissed Blue on the lips, hugging her, for as long as our breaths would allow, our eyes pouring tears. “Are they coming to the party at the castle?” I had to know. “Yes, actually, they are,” Twilight said causing me to hop up and down Pinkie Pie style. ‘Oh my gosh, my family and my friends are still alive, are going to the party tonight, and we’ll all be together, happy, safe, and sound.’ I thought, giggling. I dashed out of the boutique and ran to the Ponyville Library, rebuilt but now just an ordinary building. The denizens of Ponyville felt that it was better that way. ‘I better prepare myself, there’s no way it’ll be as simple as just meeting with my family and friends again. No matter what happens, I need to be prepared. Even the Bittercold himself could appear, and I would have to stop him.’ I read through a magic spell book and practiced it, failing after a few attempts, but eventually mastering the middle level of teleportation, magic blasts, shielding, and telekinesis. I could only teleport myself from Canterlot to Ponyville, unlike Twilight who can teleport from one point in Equestria to another. My magic blasts could only stun, they couldn’t do any serious damage. I could only produce a weak shield that would only protect me. Telekinesis, being the most basic magic spell, was the only spell I could truly master, even then I could only lift something that weighed as much as Blue or Sparky. Beyond that, I couldn’t budge whatever the object was. Afterwards, I treated us all to a dinner at Sugar Cube Corner seeing as our Poke had turned into bits upon arrival in this world. The Cakes were busy with their latest order, which was likely for our party, as we noticed Vinyl Scratch, Octavia Melody, Lyra Heartstrings, Bon Bon, Derpy Hooves, her kids, and Doctor Hooves all heading for the castle, along with several other ponies I knew less although I could identify Minuette and the Flower ponies among them. I knew that this was going to be a massive turn out. I turned to the others and said, “Well, looks like Pinkie Pie invited half the town to our little party. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, I mean, it is Pinkie we’re talking about.” I could tell from the looks on their faces that they didn’t get what I was saying. “Right, I guess you don’t know her as well as I do. You see, she’s a super duper party pony. Her parties are always the best!” Sparky and Blue nodded and smiled as they finished their dinners.
The PartyAfter dinner, we headed to the castle, as it was nearly sundown. I noticed that the party did have a huge turnout as I had expected. The Royal Sisters were there, Shining Armor, Princess Cadence, and Flurry Heart along with them. Mr. and Mrs. Cake along with their kids were among them as were Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Twist, Snips, Snails, Pipsqueak, Featherweight, Discord, Trixie, A.K. Yearling, Mayor Mare, Bulk Biceps, Berryshine and her daughter Ruby Pinch, Bon Bon, Lyra, the Flower Ponies, Derpy and her family, Golden Harvest, Minuette, and Sea Swirl. We arrived, and noticed that Vinyl and Octavia were setting up. Greta and Gilda were sitting near each other in the lobby opposite of Cranky and Matilda. We noticed Big Macintosh had Cheerliee leaning on him. We looked around and found our friends and family. We called to them, and they recognized us. We ran up to them, as Beta, Gamma, Omega, Charlie, Delta, and Echo ran up to us. Sparky sprinted to his kids, parents, and Flare. None of them were ponies. We realized that the portal was meant to put us where me, Sparky, and Blue landed and we were mostly supposed to be ponies, but Arceus’s expanding the portal caused the error. “Fillies and Gentlecolts!” Pinkie shouted. “Our newest friends have found each other again, so let’s party!” With that, the party kicked up to high gear. Pinkie walked up to us. “I found out everyone else’s names, but don’t worry; they told me who you three were!” She said, bouncing off. Yearling approached us and motioned for me, my family and friends to head into a side room. “Alright, what’s really going on here?” She asked. “I doubt you’re really as innocent as you seem.” Everyone but me looked at her like she was crazy. She rolled her eyes and stripped down, revealing, no surprise to me, that she was Daring Do. She placed her hat on her head. ‘Daring Do, I wasn’t expecting you here,” I thought sarcastically. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but we’re innocent,” I explained. “Well, keep your eyes out, changelings have been spotted around here, and I don’t mean Thorax.” “We’ll keep our eyes peeled,” I said, saluting her. “I will too,” Thorax said, entering the room. “Eyes peeled on what?” Mewtwo asked, until we realized there were two of them. Mewtwo, who we knew had to be the real one, used Shadow Ball on the imposter, revealing her to not only be a changeling, but the Queen herself. Daring readied herself for a fight as the Main Six, the princesses, Derpy and Dr. Hooves entered the room to check out the commotion. They all got ready to fight. Chrysalis stood up, blasting at us with her horn. Thorax approached her. “Your highness, wait!” He yelled, trying to catch her attention. It worked, and all attention was on him. “I’ve spent time with these ponies,” he said motioning to the Mane Six, “their unconditional love and friendship for who I am has kept me full. Maybe we changelings can live in peace with ponies, rather than invading them and stealing their love.” The queen’s face softened, realizing that perhaps this changeling wasn’t wrong, but her face turned cold again as she blasted Thorax. He was sent flying into a wall, knocking him out. “You foolish imp! You think that I would ever live in peace with ponies that hate us and will never see us for who we are inside!?” She readied another blast until Kyurem stepped in. “STOP THIS FOOLISHNESS!” He bellowed, stopping Chrysalis in her tracks. “I was once in your hooves, until someone showed me that darkness and treachery was not the way. You can change, as I have. All you need is help to get there. We can help you, if you’ll let us.” Chrysalis softened up again. “There, you go, now let me tell you about my past so you can see how far I had fallen before Michael picked me back up. I was ready for my world to be destroyed; I saw the world as one large dark pit. I saw no good in the world, that destruction was the only fate that suited the world. I would have stopped at nothing to destroy it myself. I even killed the Voice of Life to stop him from helping those who were willing to destroy the one who would and, years later, did destroy our world. “But then I was offered a chance to change when they defeated me. I saw that their comradery meant that the world still had a chance, that the world wasn’t as bleak as I had believed. I defected from the enemy’s side and turned towards the peaceful life I now live. I am much happier now than I ever was working for that monster. So, if I can change through simply being shown that light still exists in the world, you can change too. Now, just follow us out, and we will make sure the ponies love you. “ Chrysalis actually followed us, smiling at the princesses, who smiled back. I could see that they realized that she could change and were willing to embrace that fact. The party followed without another incident. Daring Do switched back into Yearling, and joined in the festivities. Bon Bon whispered into Yearling’s ear and Yearling nodded. Gilda and Greta swayed to the music. When Octavia started her next song, me and Blue slow-danced together, which seemed odd to me due to my not being used to doing anything on two legs since I had left what was left of Jurassic World back when I had brought Blue, her sisters, Owen, Claire, the kids, Rexy, and Indy to the Pokemon World. I saw Bon Bon and Lyra slow-dancing as well. Everyone stopped when Chrysalis and Thorax took to the air. They danced together in a beautiful aerial waltz. I saw the hope that I was barely clinging onto in the eyes of everypony, but especially in Chrysalis. I knew then, that, even though our world was destroyed despite our best efforts to stop it, there was hope for us in this world of Little Ponies. Whatever came of us, whatever disaster struck, whatever villain attacked, we knew we could handle it as long as we stuck together as friends and family.
The Doctor's Always WrongThat night, we slept in the castle. When we awoke, Rarity ran into the room, panicking. “Guys, this is dreadful! Fluttershy’s been captured! A human dragged her away…” “What did he look like?” I asked, fearing the response. “Well, he looked like a doctor but from the way he acted, I knew he was no physician.” I sneered, knowing exactly who she was talking about. ‘Oh no, not him again,’ I thought, sighing. The Doctor was an enemy of mine. He had captured Blue in the past, tortured her, and gave her a disease to wipe out the Pokemon World. The disease was nasty, just by standing near them, you felt nausea and headaches. The sufferer had it worse, though, as they suffered, along with nausea and headaches, paralysis, muscle ache, sweats while cold, shivering while warm, and finally, if not treated in 72 hours, death. When Blue returned, she was very ill, and I had to go out and get the antidote, as I was the only one who wasn’t affected by it. Why I wasn’t is still a mystery to me. I barely made it back in time. The Doctor had chased me down, ready to stop me. In the end, though, I managed to make it back with the antidote; and saved Blue’s life. I had mere seconds left to cure her. I was sure that she had died as she didn’t move for several minutes. I had entered depression, believing my mate and the mother of my children was gone. I couldn’t have been happier when she finally awoke. I hoped the doctor died when our world was destroyed, but instead he was in this world; as if nothing happened. Worse, she captured the sweetest, most innocent pony in the whole world. I dashed out of the castle, Blue alongside, where Twilight, Spike, Thorax, Chrysalis, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Starlight, and Pinkie Pie all stood. I could tell by the looks on their faces that they were ready to take their friend back. ‘I hope it’s not too late!’ “So, Rarity, where’d he head off to?” I asked. “He was headed towards a warehouse near Sweet Apple Acres.” Rarity replied, Applejack was furious at this and ran towards the warehouse, us following. When we got there, we could hear screaming, Fluttershy’s screams. The Doctor’s sick experiments had already begun. We had to get her out now or there would be very little hope for her survival. She was far more fragile than Blue, she would likely not survive the same type of torture the doctor performed. We found the window he was operating in front of. ‘There you are, you monster.’ “Alright, Blue, you, Twilight, Spike, Thorax, Starlight, Rarity, and Pinkie free Fluttershy while Chrysalis, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and I hold the Doctor off.” They all nodded their heads, going along with the plan. Then, the Doctor activated his machine, sending electricity surging through Fluttershy’s body. She was convulsing as much as she could, being tied down. Tears fell down her cheeks as she begged him to stop. Rainbow and I burst into the room, sending glass raining down on the Doctor. I hit him with a magic blast, holding him still with my magic, while Rainbow punched him hard in the jaw. Blue rushed over and turned off the machine, ending Fluttershy’s torment. Twilight removed her bonds, as she pulled Twilight into a hug, tears continuing to fall. Rainbow punched him over and over, while Applejack kicked him in the stomach, and Chrysalis and I kept hitting him with magic blasts. “Don’t touch Fluttershy!” Rainbow screamed, landing another punch on the man. I could tell he was about to go down, but I felt it wasn’t enough; I launched another magic blast, hitting him between the eyes. This final hit made him fall. I called off the others; and stood on top of the monster of a man. “Where’s the antidote?” I asked, only for the Doctor to shrug the question off. I wasn’t having any of it, I shook him hard and screamed, “Tell me right now, you monster, where’s the antidote?!” He still didn’t respond. I punched him in the face, sending his head down to the ground again. “I’ll ask this one last time, and if I don’t get an answer, I’ll kill you. Where is the antidote!?” He stared into my eyes and headbutted me. I reeled back, shocked by the hit. Rainbow backed me up by punching him down again. “You’ll tell me where the antidote is or you’ll taste my hoof!” She screamed, “Fluttershy’s my best friend, so I want her better. Where’s the antidote?!” “You won’t need it,” He finally said, “I didn’t inject her yet.” This came as a relief to us; we didn’t have to worry about a fiasco being started by the first true human in Equestria. Rainbow punched him again, just for good measure. “Alright ponies, let’s get out of here.” “But what about him?” I asked. “Isn’t it obvious?” Twilight asked; I tilted my head, unsure of what she meant, “We have to turn him in to the proper authorities which, in this case, would be the Canterlot dungeon.” “Alright, but, who’s going to take him there?” “I and Thorax will,” Chrysalis said, Thorax nodding. “Be careful you two,” I said. “Don’t worry, we will,” Chrysalis said, winking. And with that, we left the warehouse-turned-lab, Fluttershy along with us. Fluttershy was still crying about everything, Rainbow Dash comforting her. “Fluttershy, you know not all humans are like him, right?” I asked, ready to tell them about my past. “What do you mean?” Rainbow asked. “Well, just take me. I was born a human and, until Hydreigon contacted me, I lived as a human in the human world. I became the hero of the Pokemon World, destroying the Bittercold. When I felt down that everyone but me had someone to love, I decided to find someone, that someone being Blue. Before long, she and I were the proud parents of Beta, Gamma, and Omega. As for how Sparky is linked to me, well, he came from a long line of humans who went to the Pokemon world to save it from a crisis. He, along with Flare, defeated a being known as Dark Matter. He moved to Post Town as he wanted to find a family to replace the one he never had. I decided to give him what he wanted, and Blue and I are his adopted parents because of it. Of course, I had to return to the human world, and Hydreigon helped me come back, which cost him his role as the Voice of Life, so he’s mortal now. But, anyways, I’m sure, now, that you can see that humans aren’t evil by default.” This made her feel better, as she perked up after my story. The other ponies and Spike stared at me in disbelief. But their faces quickly changed when they realized that everything matched up and made sense with what I was telling them. Then, I remembered that our world had been destroyed just yesterday. I bowed my head; and started to cry myself. “What’s wrong, sugarcube?” Applejack asked, concerned. “It’s just, I was talking about saving my world when I know that I watched it be destroyed in front of me without being able to do anything but escape here,” I said, crying, “Girls, Spike, I need you to promise one thing to me.” They paid attention, nodding their heads, “I need you to Pinkie Pie promise that you will fight for your world, no matter what it takes.” Their response was unanimous: “Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.” They motioned as usual with the promise. I smiled wide and gave them a group hug. ‘Guys, you’re all so nice to help someone you only recently met,” I thought, my tears going away.
