Episode 6: They Poisoned Our Water Supply!
After a long mission, TERF decided to go swimming for a break from fighting. "Come on guys, swimming is fun!", remarked Fizzy. "We've been saving lives and fighting disposable cannon fodder non-stop. Can't we get some relaxation for once?"
Wind Whistler replied, "I'm not that comfortable with swimming. My wings get wet, hindering my ability to fly. I'm more at home in the sky, flapping and stretching my wings."
Galaxy added, "Oh that's nothing. I'm a space pony, most comfortable flying the night sky and playing among the stars."
And Gingerbread finished, "I have a bad feeling about this, Fizzy. Terror Empire may take advantage of our day off and strike!"
Fizzy slapped Ginger's face with a hoof, sparks flying off Ginger's face. "Come on Ginger, everypony deserves a day off!" Ginger complied and nodded.
The four TERF ponies arrived at the swimming pool. As they never wear clothes, they didn't need to put on swimwear. To the TERF ponies' surprise, no one else was present. Wind Whistler hesitated to step into the water. "No way Fizzy, I'm not getting my wings wet. I've got a bad feeling about this."
Fizzy replied, "Come on Windy, once you get in the water you'll get used to it! And I can put ball in my cannonball." She climbed up a high diving board on a diving pool separate from her friends', rolled into a bubble ball, and did a cannonball so hard it displaced a lot of water. She unrolled and got to swimming afterwards. But Wind Whistler still hesitated, even while Gingerbread was splashing around with a cooking pan and skillet while Galaxy was riding a small floating nebula board she made herself.
Then another Terror Empire demon appeared: Toxic Ox. He was green and had black horns. Forming an energy ball between his horns, he shot both pools with a green laser that also turned them green and poisonous. "I am Toxic Ox and I have poisoned the city's water supply."
Wind Whistler thought, Good thing I didn't swim. With that, she picked up Galaxy off her nebula board while Galaxy used her magic to lift Gingerbread out of the water, who then shook herself dry like a dog. Fizzy jumped out of the dive pool in her ball form, the ball form's bubble soaking up the poison before dissipating. Though seemingly unharmed upon unballing, she then found herself feeling full-body pain from the poison, unable to move a muscle or use magic. Galaxy used her magic to place the injured Fizzy onto Gingerbread's cooking tray, then the other three ponies used the sliding tray to get Fizzy to safety back at base.
Fizzy began coughing while clutching her heart. "Gingerbread, you touched some of the Terror Empire demon's poison water. How come you're not in excruciating agony like I am now?"
Gingerbread replied, "Well, I can still walk. Have some cookies." As soon as she offered some cookies to Fizzy on a tray, the cookies glowed green. "Oh no, he cursed me too! These cookies are poisoned too! If you eat them, you'll..." Ginger imagined Fizzy as a ghost looking at her own greener-than-normal corpse. "Unless we destroy the poison demon, no one can enjoy my cookies again!"
But then Wind Whistler pointed out, "The demon's poison seems to have cursed Fizzy's bubble powers. She used her bubble shield to protect herself, and it soaked up the poison, increasing the harmful effects. Gingerbread however had minimal exposure to the poison, allowing her to still walk via determination. But the poison instead goes to any cookies she touched."
Galaxy offered to try some determination and magic friendship to at least give Fizzy the energy to move again. "Okay Fiz, this determination friendship spell requires that you make another bubble. It may hurt, but you'll feel better afterwards." Fizzy complied by blowing two big green bubbles, her determination keeping her going despite the poison-induced pain. Galaxy focused her magic on the bubbles to remove the poison and contained Fizzy and Gingerbread in them. "There, these bubbles you two can painlessly breathe in. They'll suppress the poison. Just stay in the ball form until we take care of the poisoned water supply. Any unballed movements may trigger the poison further." Gingerbread curled up and became round. She has had some experience rolling in the past, although she cannot bounce like Fizzy. "That means no Jedi stuff, Ginger." Gingerbread complied.
After deploying, the TERF ponies arrived at a reservoir site blocked by a big army of droids. Galaxy was the first to act, firing her Spacial Cannon to explode a chunk of them. Then she took a bipedal stance, punched and kicked some more, and whipped out a large galaxy shuriken. "COSMIC DIVIDER!" As she threw it with all her might, it flew in an arc and carved up more droids. "Fizzy, let's get the ball rolling and purify that reservoir!"
Fizzy rolled through the opening, dodging droid shots and jumping into the reservoir to do her cannonball. Wind Whistler kicked the balled-up Gingerbread into more droids, picked her up while yelling "KAJIBANO SUPER POWER", and flew to the reservoir while dodging droid lasers. "KAJIBANO SUPER DUNK!" With a mighty divebomb, Windy slammed Ginger into the water. Galaxy teleported over to the water as well. Using both her magic and her friends' purified bubble shields, she managed to remove Toxic Ox's poison, purifying both the water supply and her friends.
Fizzy, unrolling and resurfacing, was glad to be able to painlessly move and use her powers again. She released a flurry of bubbles into the air to show it. Gingerbread, the next to unroll and resurface, smiled and held her iron skillet with her hoof, ready to carve up the droids again. After our heroes were done with the droids, Toxic Ox showed up again. "You...unpoisoned the water supply! Now you will die!" This time Fizzy dodged his lasers, countering with her own bubble shots to trap them while Gingerbread deflected more with her tray and skillet.
Galaxy yelled "COSMIC DIVIDER" and sliced the Ox's horns off with her galaxy shuriken.
The Ox gasped when he saw his horns fall to the ground. "My horns! You'll pay for destroying my beautiful horns!"
Then he tried to punch her, but missed before Wind Whistler grabbed his arm, yelled "KAJIBANO SUPER POWER" and metronomic man mashed him before Gingerbread cut off his arm and smashed his head in.
Wind Whistler darted forward and bashed Toxic Ox's soul out. Fizzy bubbled his soul so that his coming death explosion wouldn't poison anyone.
"FROSTING CONSTRICTOR!" Gingerbread released some cookie frosting from a dispenser.
"BUBBLE WRAP!" Fizzy released a string of bubbles from her horn.
"STARBEAM SNAKE!" Galaxy released light from her horn.
The frosting, bubbles, and light combined into a larger rope which wrapped itself around Toxic Ox, and started to constrict him. Before exploding, he yelled "May Maaegen, my creator, grace you!"
The TERF team performed their typical victory announcement and were able to enjoy their victory by swimming again, this time safely.
