Chapter 1: The Emoji Aliens
It was yet another perfect day in the land of Equestria. At the edge of the forbidden Everfree forest sat Fluttershy's Cottage. inside, said Pegasus was busy giving all the animals their breakfast, waiting for her roommates/tenants to wake up, especially her son, Toby, "Eat up little ones," Fluttershy said, giving them their feed. She looked up the stairs to see Ashley and Serenity coming down from their rooms, "Good morning you two," Fluttershy said happily.
"Morning Fluttershy," Ashley said with a yawn.
"Toby's still asleep," Serenity commented.
"After all that's happened, I think he should sleep in," Ashley said.
"Yes, he's definetly earned the rest," Fluttershy said, as she entered the kitchen to begin breakfast.
One by one, the Lorelei's and the Mason's exited their rooms, save for Toby, who was still sleeping like a rock. Eventually, one of the Pokeballs resting on the nearby shelf, containing his Raichu opened up, releasing the Mouse Pokémon. Looking over at her trainer's bed, Raichu floated over to wake up Toby, who was sleeping heavily, "Toby, time to get up," Raichu said, poking Toby's cheek. Toby moaned, as he just rolled under his sheets. Raichu giggled, and pulled the sheets down.
"Mmm, c'mon Raichu, I want to sleep," Toby said, taking back the sheets. Raichu was starting to get annoyed, and gave Toby a slight jolt of electricity, "Ok, ok, I'm up! I wish you would stop getting me up like that," Toby said with a slight laugh, as he let out all of his Pokémon, and gave them their breakfast. Toby then headed downstairs where Fluttershy, his mother, Serenity, and his grandparents were all eating breakfast. All of his other relatives had gone out to do their own thing.
"Good Morning Toby," Ashley said.
"Morning Mommy," Toby said, as he took his place at the table.
"I take it one of your Pokémon woke you up?" Toby's Grandpa Mason asked.
"Yeah, Raichu likes to give me a bit of a jolt when it comes time to wake up," Toby replied, as he ate his breakfast alongside his family.
"Well, I need to get to work, so I'll see you all later," Ashley said, as she left the cottage.
"We'll be heading to the market with Fluttershy," Toby's Grandma Lorelei said.
"Looks like you and Serenity are staying home for now," Fluttershy said.
"We'll look after everything while you're gone," Toby said tiredly. After they all finished their breakfast, Fluttershy and Toby's grandparents left the cottage, leaving both him and Serenity to watch over things. Toby was still feeling groggy, so he decided to go to the bathroom to splash some water on his face. He then retreated back to his room, where all of his Pokémon were waiting. He then proceeded to recall each of them back into their respective Pokeball, except for Raichu, who sensed something outside, "Something wrong, Raichu?" Toby asked. Raichu didn't answer him, and instead floated outside, Toby following in pursuit.
Leading him outside, Raichu saw something very odd; three odd somethings. Toby saw them too. They appeared to be some kind of dog like aliens, one was very tall, one was about his height, and there was an infant, being held by the tall one. Something Toby noticed was that they were blue with silver hair, and had antennas coming out from their heads, and two of them were wearing raggedy clothes, while the infant was swaddled in cloth. All three of them were dangerously close to the Everfree Forest.
"What do you suppose they are Toby?" Raichu asked.
"I don't know, but we can't just leave them here. Raichu, use Psychic, and levitate them into the house, and lay them on the couch," Toby instructed. Raichu then began to use her psychic power, and levitated all three into the cottage. Once inside, Raichu gently laid each of them down on the couch.
"Toby, who or what are they?" Serenity whispered.
"I don't know Serenity, but I think we should get Auntie Twilight's help with this," Toby suggested, just as Angel came up to them, "Angel, we're going to go get Auntie Twilight, and ask her what we should do about these three. I want you to look after things while we're gone. We should be back in a little bit," Toby said. Angel gave Toby a salute, and with that, Toby and Serenity went off to Twilight's castle.
At Twilight's castle, in the throne room,
Twilight, the princess of friendship, was bored. Looking around, she found nothing interesting to do, With the others out, doing their own thing, she had nothing to do. She just sat in her throne, completely bored. Just then, a knock came from the door, "Oh, finally, something to do!" Twilight exclaimed, as she raced to the door. Opening the door, she saw Toby and Serenity, "Hello you two, what brings you here?" Twilight asked.
"We were actually hoping you could help us out with something," Toby replied.
"What kind of something?" Twilight asked.
"We found some kind of creature in the backyard, and we were hoping you could help us identify them?" Toby asked.
"Well, let met get my books. What kind of creature did they look like?" Twilight asked.
"They looked like some kind of blue dog like creature," Toby replied. Grabbing a book on dogs from her library, Twilight took Toby and Serenity back home.
A few minutes later,
"Nope, they don't show up in the book," Twilight said, going back through the book, trying to find the picture of the dog creatures. Just then, Fluttershy and Toby's grandparents came back.
"Oh, Twilight, I didn't expect to see you here," Fluttershy said.
"Well, Toby and Serenity both had questions about these creatures. Maybe you've seen something like them?" Twilight asked. Fluttershy took a look at all three creatures, and shook her head.
"I'm sorry, but I've never seen this type of creature before," Fluttershy replied.
"I'll tell you what I think; they're aliens! Bent on taking over the world!" Toby's grandpa Lorelei theorized.
"Geoff, you think everything like this is an Alien," Toby's Grandma Lorelei deadpanned.
"No I don't!" Geoff defended, offended by his wife's commented.
"There was that time you thought the balloons were alien spy cameras, and the time you thought an amphibious car was an alien transport mechanism, and..." Toby was cut off.
"Ok, ok! I get it!" Geoff said, pinching the bridge between his eyes. The loud noise of Geoff's voice caused the creatures to stir. The eldest one, which they presumed the mother, was the first to sit up. She was still feeling very tired, as she had a groggy expression.
"Stay back you two. We don't know if they're dangerous," Fluttershy said, pushing Toby and Serenity back, as the mother alien opened her eyes. She was wide awake when she saw the ponies and the humans. She looked around, not recognizing where she was. She saw her baby laying next to her, and her daughter laying on another couch. She turned her attention back to the group.
"Where, are, we?" electricity appeared from the antennae above her head, spelling out the words. Twilight took note of that, and cautiously approached her.
"Do you understand what I'm saying?" Twilight asked.
"I do," the mother replied.
"Ok. I saw your question, and to answer it, you're in Equestria. Ponyville to be exact," Twilight explained.
"'Equestria'? I don't think that's a country under Aku's control," she said.
"Who is 'Aku'?" Twilight asked.
"You don't know? He's the unstoppable ruler of practically the entire galaxy," the mother replied.
"I don't think I have ever heard of Aku before," Twilight replied.
"I think I have," all attention turned to Toby, "He was the main villain in Samurai Jack," he explained.
"Is the Aku you're referring to all black with red flaming eyebrows?" the mother asked.
"Yes, and he had a green and white face too," Toby replied.
"So, are my children and I in another world?" the mother asked.
"By the sounds of it, you are," Twilight replied.
"Hmm, one thing: Are you here to conquer us?" Geoff asked, suspiciously. Everyone in the room face palmed.
"Heaven's no! My race is a very peaceful kind. By the way, my name is Bue, and this is my daughter, Hali," Bue said, motioning to the creature on the other couch. She then scooped up the baby, "And this is my son, Te," she added.
"My name is Twilight Sparkle, and this is one of my friends, Fluttershy, my niece and nephew, Toby and Serenity, and Toby's grandparents, on both his mother and father's side," Twilight said, introducing them. Just then, Hali got up, and she was still very sleepy. She then became wide awake, upon sight of the group of people.
"Mommy, what's going on?" Hali asked.
"Well, I think we're in another world," Bue replied.
"Another world? Has it been taken over by Aku?" Hali asked.
"No, I don't believe so, but there might be the danger of Aku," Bue replied.
"Maybe we can get word to Celestia? We can at least try to fight back," Twilight suggested.
"It would be in vain. There's only one weapon in existence that can harm Aku," Bue explained.
"The sword of Samurai Jack," Hali added. Just then, some knocks came from the door. Toby opened it, and revealed his friend, Raiden Fujiyama.
"Hey Toby, I came by to drop these off for Fluttershy," Raiden said, giving Toby a box of Japanese tea. Raiden then took notice of the aliens in Fluttershy's living room, "Are, those aliens?" Raiden asked.
"Yeah, and we're in the middle of a pickle," Twilight replied.
"What's wrong?" Raiden asked. Twilight then explained to the lightning mutant about the danger of Aku, "Ah, I see. I've heard of Aku. He's one of the most powerful beings in the history of the universe," Raiden said.
"Oh, PUH-LEASE!" Discord said, as he materialized into the room, "When it comes to power, I trump even the four alicorn princesses, no offense Twilight," he said to Twilight.
"Eh, none taken," Twilight said.
"Well, both sides seem to have different opinions. Its a good thing we mutants at Alicorn's Wish have something called the 'Death Battle Simulator.' It always helps us out when we're in an argument," Raiden said, as he dashed off to the guild.
"Do you have any idea what he was talking about?" Toby's Grandma Lorelei asked.
"Not a clue," Fluttershy replied flatly.
"Well, we may as well go see," Discord said, as he teleported everyone over to the guild. The others were disoriented by this.
"Oh, man, is there no way to make that not so nauseating?" Toby complained. Looking around, they saw Raiden, along with his seven brothers, and their friends, along with Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Applejack, discussing something with them.
"And that's pretty much it," Icezer said.
"What were guys talking about?" Twilight asked.
"We heard about some kind of aliens, that come from a world ruled by some demon?" Rarity replied. They then saw the aliens, and Rarity was immediately appalled by the rags they were wearing.
"Alright, enough screwing around, we've got a job to do," Eliza said.
"So, how do you do this?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Its our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills, to find out who would win a Death Battle," Raiden replied.
"Why did you say it like that?" Applejack asked.
"Just watch the monitor," Brian said, as Takanosuke booted up the simulator computer.
Chapter 2: Death Battle Analysis: Aku
"The word 'Immortal' is a term used to describe gods, or god like creatures," Silver stated.
"And these two embody that to the T, like Aku, the Shapeshifting master of Darkness," Claire said.
"And Discord, the Spirit of Chaos," Stealth added.
"Long ago, in a distant land, the demon wizard Aku unleashed an unspeakable evil," Naomi began.
"But before he was a tall demon with flaming eyebrows, who or rather, what was he?" Brian asked.
"To answer that question, we must go back further into the past, in a galaxy, far, far away," Raiden said, only to be smacked by Eliza, "OW!" he yelled.
"Raiden, what have we told you about Star Wars references in these analysis'?" Eliza asked.
"Ugh, only on weekends," Raiden groaned.
"But Aku's origins do take place far from Earth. Near the beginning of time, a mass of insentient evil was formed. It took the combined efforts of Norse God, Odin, Egyptian God, Ra, and Hindu God, Vishnu, that this evil was finally destroyed," Heiru stated.
"Except for one piece of the evil, which was able to escape to a prehistoric planet called 'Earth', where it killed off all the dinosaurs, in the form of tar pits," Carlos said.
"Over time, this 'tar pit' was the cause of many deaths, including of group of cavemen, and what may have been a dog?" Lucas added.
"Over time, a forest of black trees began sprouting from around these Tar Pits, and having enough of this, the emperor of a kingdom, which just so happened to be relatively close by to the pits, set off on a journey to try and destroy this evil, with a magic elixir, which he had high hopes that it would destroy the tar pits," Silver stated.
"Unfortunately, that plan back fired," Claire added.
"Instead of destroying the tar pits like it was intended to do so, it actually released an all powerful demon, who would go down in history by the name of 'Aku'," Raiden said.
"Aku is the ultimate in evil. Standing at no less than fifty meters tall, he is feared by all," Cassidy said.
"And what kind of ultimate evil would he be without superpowers?" Francisco asked rhetorically.
"As one of his titles implies, Aku has many forms he can take, ranging from a scorpion, to a fire breathing dragon!" Brian added.
"He also has laser eyes, which is one of his more commonly used weapons, and, as Brian just said, he can breath fire," Claire mentioned.
"He's capable of surviving the vacuum of space, like when he went to recruit a race of lion headed hunters, called the Imakandi, can fend off the entire Tricerequin army while underwater without batting an eye, and can effortlessly obliterate two whole armies. Man, can anything stop this guy?!" Cassidy exclaimed.
"Well, Aku does have his own flaws. Remember the Emperor of the Kingdom Aku was spawned from? Well, after Aku trapped him in the tar pits where he was spawned from, a celestial horse rescued him, and took him to the peak of a mountain. Inside one of the caves, there were three monks, each gifted with mystical powers. But it turns out these monks were actually the three gods from before in disguise," Silver replied.
"Understanding the dire situation, looming over the world, the gods forged a magic sword, made from the righteousness of the human spirit," Stealth added.
"We're not joking. This katana was forged to combat Aku, by using the powers of righteousness. And after receiving the sword, and some cool armor, the emperor rode a Flying Nimbus back to his kingdom, where Aku was laying waste to everything," Eliza said.
"After a hard fought battle, the emperor was able to defeat and imprison Aku into the Earth. However, this victory did not last very long. After maybe ten years(?), Aku returned, and the emperor sent his son off to train with the best of the best, and that's including Robin Hood!" Lucas added.
"When the lost son, who would later dub the name 'Jack', returned to his homeland, he plunged into battle, like his father before him," Simon said.
"However, Aku has one more power that got the whole series started in the first place," Carlos said.
"Just before Jack delivered the final blow, Aku tore open a portal in time, and flung Jack into the future where Aku's evil is the law," Carmen said.
"After learning he was in the future, Jack quickly adapted to his new surroundings, and made it his ultimate quest to find a time portal, and stop Aku in the past," Silver said.
"However, during the thousands of years Jack was time hopping, Aku had become increasingly arrogant. This turned out to be his ultimate weakness," Naomi said.
"In other words, because the only weapon among mankind was sent into the future, Aku believed that he could do whatever he wanted. He made ridiculous demands in exchange for allowing aliens to live on Earth. But imagine his surprise when a familiar samurai warrior was seen in the future," Icezer said.
"Like all evil overlords, he has his own variety of evil minions. While he demon warriors to do his bidding, over time, Aku has acquired more and more minions. First up, there the X-5 model mercenaries. These drones were designed to be like Al Capone style mobsters. Over time, Aku's scientists developed insect robots. The most common of these drones were the beetle drones, whose only real method of attack is the scythe like claws they have. He also has mantis bots, and when he commissioned the creation of indestructible robots called Ultra Bots, which were comprised of Adamantium, a rare, man-made metal alloy that, on a molecular level, is immensely dense, to the point that event he weapons of a god have difficulty breaking them," Raiden said.
"Additionally, to that last one, Aku is also known to go back on his promises. Like when he promised a scientist named Extor that if could develop indestructible robots, then Aku would leave his village alone. But, surprise-surprise, Aku decided that in order to test the Ultra Bots, he would sic them on Extor's village, despite him promising to leave it be," Eliza said.
"But its that very arrogance that lead to one of the greatest roasts in animation history. See, fed up with incompetent minions, Aku decided the best course of action was to take on Jack himself. Jack promised not to use his sword, in exchange for Aku not bringing any minions, or being able to shapeshifting, or super human powers. But Jack knew Aku would not fulfill his promise, and delivered the greatest roast ever!" Cassidy exclaimed.
"Though despite Aku's arrogance, he still can only be killed by either the power of a god, or the magic sword that Jack wields," Silver said.
"Yeah, some people tend to forget that fact. Like the Scotsman, Jack's best friend in the future. He led an ill fated attack on Aku's fortress, which ended in the demise of two armies, and the Scotsman himself. Their intentions were still noble, but their actions were not thought out all the way," Claire said.
"Especially since the Scotsman holds the record for the longest insult in animation history, lasting a whopping twenty seconds long," Sora said.
"What did he say?!" Heiru exclaimed.
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, Aku is still a one of the most powerful entities in existence, and should never be taken lightly," Silver said.
"Where did you get all this footage?" Hali asked.
"Don't worry about it," Raiden replied.
