My Brave Pony Starfleet Human

Jewel found herself in a strange place; a void with animal constellations all over.

“Woah.” she gasped.

“Hello Jewel.” Jewel turned around and saw Queen Novo behind her, except she looked ghost-like. “Queen Novo!? What are you doing here?” Jewel asked.

“I am here you tell you of a special weapon that holds great power.” Novo stated.

“A special weapon?!” Jewel repeated.

“Indeed. It’s called the Staff of Animals. It has the power to summon the strongest animal spirits.”

“So it’s similar to my animal powers?”

“Yes”

“So where can I find it?”

“I can’t reveals too much but I’ll give you a clue. Look inside you locker at school.”

“My locker?”

“Yes. I must go now. Good luck Jewel.”

The void began to waver and everything faded out.

Jewel woke up in a shock. Her dream seemed so real, she believed it was true. If she was going to find a powerful weapon, she’s going to need help.

She gathered up all the rangers and Twilight and told them about her dream.

“Are you sure about this?” Rainbow asked.

“Yes.” Jewel replied.

“Weird, this sorta thing happens to ponies, not humans.” Sunset stated, confused.

“Let’s worry about that later. Right now, it sounds like this ‘Staff of Animals’ is really strong.” Lightning said.

“Queen Novo said it’s very powerful.” Jewel added.

“So the first clue to finding the staff is looking in your school locker?” Buddy asked.

Jewel nodded.

“Well we’d better start looking.” Fluttershy added. What the rangers didn’t know was that Keto was watching them and heard everything!

“Wait till the others hear about this.” She whispered and he teleported back to Prison Tower and told the others.

“Soooo, the rangers are going on a little treasure hunt to find a hidden power which they plan to use against us.” Keto stated.

Bronc winced once, “Oh, are they now?”

Marla poked into the room, “Treasure? Power…? Sounds like something maybe we could use as well. We’ll just have to find it before they do.”

“Indeed.” Bronc stated, “…And I know just the monster that can help us.”

He led his comrades to a cage where a monster named Prospector sat. He looked very much like his name, a plump yet strong looking monster, with a shaggy beard and a bent up cowboy hat. He was armed with sticks of dynamite on a sash, a strong shovel and a sharp pick on his back.

His weapons couldn’t help him while he was locked up, but he was very surprised when his cell was opened. “What in tarnation is goin’ on?” he asked.

“Get up, Prospector!” said Marla “You’re coming with us on a little treasure hunt.”

At first, Prospector didn’t seem interested, “I’ve been in this here cell for over a-hundred years, and I ain’t about to leave for…” he suddenly snapped upright, “…“Treasure” did you say? Well, saddle up and let’s ride! YEE-HAW!!”

Marla and Keto were starting to feel unimpressed.

Meanwhile, the rangers contacted Celesto and asked for him to unlock the school. When he was told of Sunset’s dream, he, too, was rather enthusiastic of seeking this power Flash had left for them.

It was rather dark inside the school, so Celesto used the built-in flashlight in his cane to light the way to Jewel’s locker.

Jewel unlocked her locker but when they looked inside, nothing appeared to be there.

“There’s nothing in here.” Rainbow said.

“Darn, maybe Jewel’s dream really was a dream.” Spike added.

“Wait.... I don’t remember there being a button at the back of my locker.” Jewel said.

The rangers and Celesto saw a red button at the back of Jewel’s locker as well. Jewel pressed the button and the bottom of the locker opened up and a stone floated up and into Jewel’s hands.

The stone was white with a variety of animal symbols and footprints covering it. Twilight scanned it with her alien scanner, “That’s definately not Earth origin, but I can’t figure out what it is.”

“So how is this thing supposed to help us find the animal staff!” Buddy asked.

“I’ve seen a stone like that before, it’s a tracking stone; the closer you get to the object, the faster and brighter the stone will glow.” Sunset added.

“Ummm, guys,” Fluttershy said, nervously. “the stone’s glowing!”

Everybody looked and indeed the stone was glowing and so was Jewel! “Guys?” she whimpered before she vanished in bright flash of light is only leaving sparkles behind.

“Wh-What happened?” Fluttershy asked.

“Jewel! She’s gone!” Buddy cried.

“Where’d she go?” Rainbow cried.

Sunset studied the sparkles left behind and gasped, “She’s been teleported!”

“TELEPORTED?!” the rangers cried.

“To where?” Lightning asked.

“I don’t know.” Sunset replied.

“Oh, not good.” Twilight groaned. Now Jewel was who knows where and her friends didn’t have the slightest clue as to where she could have been teleported to.

“What do we do?” Spike asked.

“Let’s get to the base and see if we can track her.” Fluttershy suggested.

The others agreed and rushed to the base, hoping Jewel was alright.

In a puff of smoke, Jewel appeared on her stomach in the middle of very lush forest and the stone was at her side.

“*Cough Cough* Wh-What happened?” Looking around she didn’t find any sign of her friends.

“Sunset... Lightning.... Anybody?” She called out but got nothing in response. “Okay, so I’m all alone in a big, scary forest with no supplies and just a glowing stone.” Jewel said to herself. “Well I do have my morpher, so that’s good.” Seeing the stone starting to blink slowly, Jewel knew she had to continue on. “Well I’d better find the staff and hope my friends find me.”

With that she walked off into the forest. After about two hours, she came across a large pit of mud. “Oh dear. How am I gonna get across this?” she asked herself.

She didn’t see any vines she could swing on or anything she could walk across the mud on. “Looks like I have no choice. I’ll have to... *gulp*.... walk across it.”

Carefully wading into the mud with the stone held high, she walked into the mud which got deeper the farther she went in. Halfway, the mud was up to her stomach. “Gross.” She whimpered. Soon, she was out of the mud with her pants and half her shirt covered in mud. “Ugh, I’m definately going to need a bath after this.” Pushing through she kept walking forward and the stone was blinking faster and faster. Soon it blinked really fast and Jewel saw a huge castle ruin, coated with moss and vines. “This must be the place.”

She walked towards the castle, going through bushes and wiping sweat from her head from the intense heat. Finally she reached the enterance. “Well here goes nothing.” With that, she entered the Tower, unaware that the minions and Prospector were watching from the brush.

“We’ve got her now.” Marla hissed.

“Come on let’s follow her.” Bronc ordered.

The others agreed and followed Jewel into the castle ruins.

Meanwhile, Twilight was working frantically to try and locate Jewel, “Anything yet?” Lightning asked.

“Nothing yet.” She replied.

“I hope Jewel’s okay.” Fluttershy said. Rhymey placed a hand on his girlfriend’s shoulder.

“Don’t worry we’ll find a way,
And make sure that’s she’s okay.” Rhymey reassured.

“Guys! I’ve got something!” Twilight called.

“What is it?” Celesto asked.

“Some alien DNA coming from the Amazon Rainforest.”

“Amazon Rainforest?” Rainbow said. “Why would alien DNA be coming from there?”

“It must be Nacluv’s minions!” Lightning stated.

“But why would they be there?” Spike asked.

“Because that’s probably where Jewel and the staff are!” Sunset cried. Everybody gasped in horror.

“Those creeps must have teleported to where she was!” Buddy stated.

“We’ve got to get there and fast!” Fluttershy cried. “Who knows what those brutes will do to Jewel.”

“Right!” the rangers agreed. They immediately morphed and prepared their star jets for departure. Lightning rode in the backseat of Sunset’s star jet.

“Ready everybody?” Sunset asked.

“Green Ranger: read to fly.”

“Blue Ranger: Let’s kick it.”

“Yellow Ranger: Ready and Steady.”

“Pink Ranger: Um… Okay.”

“Let’s go!” Sunset added.

BOOM! The star jets blasted off to the Amazon Rainforest full speed ahead. Meanwhile, Jewel was walking down a long dark tunnel with only the stone to guide her. “It’s really... gulp... dark in here.” She whimpered. She came to two separate tunnels, “Great. Now which one should I take?” Suddenly, the stone began floating out of her hands, glowing and blinking fast. Floating over to the right tunnel it floated down the tunnel, “Wait!” Jewel called as she chased after the stone.

The stone led her to a huge room filled with animal symbols and prints. “Woah.”

She spotted the stone floating in the middle of the room. Walking over to it she saw that she was standing in a large spiral marking. The stone floated into the spiral, causing it to light up.

Suddenly the whole room began to rumble and quake, “Woah! What the-!” Jewel cried. Just then the spiral fell into darkness, leaving Jewel with nothing to stand on, “Uh oh.” She squeaked.

She fell down the long hole screaming at the top of her lungs, then she landed with a loud THUD, on her stomach, knocking the wind out of her.

“Oooooooh, that.... really hurt.” Jewel groaned.

She slowly got up into her feet and saw found herself in another room. It had four pillars with animal prints on them. “Wow.” She gasped. In the middle of the room, she saw it!

“The Staff of Animal Spirits!”

She walked towards the staff and got a good look at the staff; it was yellow with brown animal symbols on it. A wolf face was at the top and in the mouth was a glowing blue orb. A pair of falcon wings were below it. Below that was a dolphin crystal that went through the middle of the staff sideways. A pair of elephant tusks were below that and finally and lion’s face was at the bottom.

“Beautiful.” She whispered.

She took it staff off of the podium, it felt warm and it glowed brightly as soon as she touched it.

Suddenly.... “Nice staff, Animal Ranger.” a menacing voice stated.

Jewel gasped in horror and turned around. She saw Marla, Bronc, Keto and Prospector slowly walking towards her threateningly.

“W-What are you doing here?” Jewel asked nervously.

“Why else?” Keto replied. “For the Staff.”

“Hand it over missy, and no one gets hurt.” Prospector threatened.

Jewel back away from the villains until she was against the podium.

“Just hand over the staff, Animal Ranger.” Marla added.

“N-Never!” Jewel pulled out her morpher, ready to morph. “Not so fast!” Prospector launches a dynamite stick at the morpher. It connected and exploded, the morpher was now completely destroyed!

“*Gulp* Uh-oh.” Jewel whimpered.

“Oh yes.” Bronc snickered.

The villains were only a feet away from Jewel when.....

“Comet Trail... Fire!”

The villains were hit and sent flying back. “Guys!” Jewel cried happily. The rangers leapt down from the ceiling in front of Jewel.

“Are you okay, Jewel?” Sunset asked.

“I am now,” Jewel responded. “but my morpher’s dead.” She pointed to the destroyed morpher. “Don’t worry Jewel, we’ll protect you.” Rainbow promised.

“That’s a promise you won’t be able to keep.” Keto snarled. The villains stood up again and charged the rangers. The rangers charged the and brawled.

Marla battled with Buddy and Sunset, punching and kicked them hard, and while they blocked her attacks with their arms and legs, she tripped them up with her long hair. “Have a nice trip?” she teased, and then she launched her nails at them. The two rangers barely managed to roll out of the way, but as they looked ahead, they could see Prospector…!

“Give it up missy.” Prospector demanded. Jewel backed away in fear.

Rhymey and Fluttershy saw the monster and dashed for him, “Oh, no you don’t!” Keto sneered, and he raised his staff shouting, “Surge Song!” casting his mugic upon himself, his comrades and Prospector, increasing their strengths and speed.

“Nice!” hissed Marla, and she punched Buddy and Sunset hard in their chests making sparks fly.

Bronc blasted Rainbow hard and Keto took one swing of his staff, like a bat, and sent Rhymey and Fluttershy soaring off and crashing onto the ground.

“Guys..!!” Jewel cried. Just then, Marla wrapped Jewel up in her hair, forcing her to drop the staff. “No! The staff!” She cried.

The villains chuckled and Keto approached it, “This things as good as ours!” he declared.

“Not good!” Sunset cried.

However, when Keto touched the staff, it shocked him with high voltage of electricity, sending him flying back and the into Marla, freeing Jewel.

“Watch it!” She yelled.

“It’s not my fault!” Keto retorted, “the staff shocked me!”

“Umm, Guys.” Bronc said, pointing at the staff, which was now floating in the air and glowing.

“What’s going on?” Lightning asked. None of the others knew what was happening.

The staff floated into Jewel’s hand and made her glow as well. “Let’s see what this baby can do!” She exclaimed.

She pointed the staff at the villains and a lion spirit came out of the orb and ruthlessly clawed and slashed the villains, sending them into the wall.

“Awesome!” Rainbow cried.

The lion spirit opened it mouth and launched a blue beam of energy at the villains, however, the minions teleported at the last second and Prospector was hit. He exploded and was imprisoned in a capture sphere.

“Alright Jewel!” Buddy cried.

Jewel stopped glowing and felt extremely tired. She closed her eyes and collapsed on the ground.

“JEWEL...!!!”

Jewel’s eyes fluttered open and she was eight blurry figures in front of her.

“.... he.... wak..... up.”

Jewel’s vision cleared and she saw the rangers, Celesto and Twilight looking at her.

“Hey sleepy head.” Sunset said, “how are you feeling?”

“A little woozy.” Jewel groaned, “what happened?”

“You used the Staff of Animals and trashed the monsters!” Rainbow exclaimed.

“But you collapsed afterwards.” Lightning added.

“Why?” Jewel asked.

“It was because, you using it for the first time left you really weak. It’s like your guys Able-Boost.” Twilight started.

“So Jewel will have to use the staff as a last resort then?” Rainbow asked.

“Not quite,” Twilight added, “The more times she uses the staff, the less tired she’ll feel, eventually she can use the staff and infinite amount of times.”

“Looks like you have some training to do Jewel.” Fluttershy said. Jewel looked a little nervous.

“Don’t worry Jewel, we’ll help you,
You’ll master your staff through and through.” Rhymey reassured.

Jewel gratefully smiled at her friends. “Thanks guys.” Suddenly, everybody heard a gurgling sound, they looked at Jewel, who had an embarrassing experssion on her face while holding her empty stomach.

“Umm... excuse me.” she said, sheepishly.

The friends giggled. “Let’s get you something to eat. Sounds like you’re starving.” Sunset suggested.

“Okay.”

With that, everybody left and went out for dinner.
