Avengers: War for Equestria

"Nice of them to loan us a craft," said Rocket as he piloted the loaned aircraft towards Arabus' positioning on the map. "What do you think, Beard Boy?"

"It's fascinating," remarked Starswirl who was at the back of the aircraft with Mage and Rockhoof. "But, please refrain from calling me names or I'll turn you into a coonskin cap."

"He's got a point there," advised Drax, sitting in back of Star Lord.

"You don't want to end up as a coonskin cap," chuckled Star Lord. "Davy Crockett had one."

But his chuckle was soon interrupted by another sharp pain in his neck.

"Maybe taking off to go fight wasn't such a good idea."

Rocket then looked back to see Groot once again playing that old video game that drove him nuts, but this time with Sunset looking on.

"Groot, put that game away," he sighed. "It's going to rot your brain."

"I am Groot."

"It's actually a very interesting game," remarked Sunset. "As long as it makes him happy."

Rolling his eyes, Rocket kept his eyes on the sky. Suddenly, they came up towards a large and dark stack of clouds right in there path. Realizing that they were facing Arabus, they ducked down into the clouds and landed on a cliff overlooking the Castle of the Two Sisters. As they landed, they noticed a gray colored Pegasus pony with crossed eyes and set of bubbles for a cutie mark.

"Hey you!" the raccoon called out to the pony. "It's about to storm here! Take cover!"

"Sorry," the mare said innocently, turning around to reveal a camera around her neck. "This storm is so fascinating."

"Go take pictures from somewhere safe!" called Sunset, pointing towards a brush at the edge of the forest. "It's going to get dangerous!"

Although disappointed, the pony did as she was told. Readying their weapons, the Guardians and Dr. Strange then heard a loud roaring sound from up the clouds.

"Is that Arabus?" called Starswirl.

"Yes!" replied Dr. Strange, his eyes locked onto the darkening sky as a pair of red eyes came out and looked down at them. "That is…the wind demon."

Almost as if on cue, Arabus fired a barrage of hailstones on the Guardians, trying to strike them. But, Starswirl acted fast and fired a shield spell to protect himself and everyone else. Roaring, Arabus fired a cold blast from his mouth sending Starswirl flying backwards and deactivating his shield spell. Throwing him against a tree, Arabus kept his assault on the group.

"Take this ya big blowhard!" shouted Rocket, firing several blasts from his laser. However, he was shocked to discover that the blasts went through him. "They went right through!"

"Arabus is made of wind!" cried Starswirl, struggling to get back to his feet. "You must use magic combined with your weapons to tame him!"

"I am Groot!" shouted Groot, firing his roots at Arabus with help from Sunset's magic. For a moment, it seemed like Groot's roots would manage to pull Arabus down, but it was no use. Arabus countered by firing a tornado and spreading Groot's roots from Sunset's magic.

Leaping into the air, Star Lord also tried to combat the beast with help from Dr. Strange, also leaping into the air and firing powerful magic blasts from his hands hitting Arabus in the face.

"Blind him," he whispered to his red cape, breaking off of Dr. Strange and covering Arabus' eyes. "Quill, see if you can disable him!"

Firing a blast of magic from his own hands, Star Lord tried to aim for a weak spot, but Arabus was too quick for him. In response, he pulled Dr. Strange's cape off of his eyes and fired a cold blast of ice at Star Lord, freezing his arm. Screaming in pain, Star Lord crashed hard on the ground, further hurting his injured body. Drax jumped up and tried to throw in his own strength, only to be blown back to the ground and onto Mantis. Arabus then blew a cold wind onto Dr. Strange, sending him crashing down onto Rocket, landing on top of him.

"Fools, do you think you can stand against me?" laughed Arabus, forming a hand and picking up Dr Strange. "You scare me even less than those winged equines."

He then flung Dr. Strange back down to the ground hard on his stomach. The wizard groaned in pain as blood flowed from his nose. Now, Arabus was just about ready for the final kill when all of a sudden, he felt a pair of magic blasts strike him in the weak spot. Roaring, he turned around to see Celestia and Luna charging towards him with spears drawn and their horn glowing with rage.

"Take this, fiend!" snapped Luna, firing a blast of magic from her horn, striking Arabus just below the eye. "Surrender now while you still can!"

"NEVER!" roared Arabus as he flung several falling hailstones onto the royal sisters, but Celestia activated a shield spell to protect her and Luna from the piercing hail. Growling, Celestia took her spear and attempted to stab Arabus with it, but the clouded body prevented it from doing so.

"Celestia," called Starswirl. "Your spears won't work against him!"

Before Starswirl could finish his sentence, Rocket Racoon jumped and fired several more blasts from his gun trying to hit one of Arabus' eyes. But, the blast merely just was hit from a hailstone. Another hailstone struck Rocket and sent him back down onto the ground. Rockhoof also attempted to aide the princesses by throwing one of his hammers, but that too, was deflected by the ever falling hailstones.

Seeing all of the carnage happening around her, Sunset knew she needed to do something.

"If only my friends from the other world were here," she thought to herself as she tried to find a way to help her mentors stop Arabus.

…

Meanwhile, at Canterlot High, Sunset's friends had just completed another day of school when they saw the portal to Equestria acting up.

"Hey, do you guys see that?" remarked Rainbow Dash. "It's the portal to Equestria. It's acting up. You don't think that Sunset…?"

"Principal Celestia did say that Sunset had to be called out by someone named Dr. Banner," answered Twilight Sparkle's human counterpart, Sci-Twi. "I've got a feeling that something is happening in Equestria and we got to help Sunset."

"Are you sure about this?" wondered Fluttershy, her knees shaking to show off her nervous nature. "Our jobs, our lives…"

"Can wait, Fluttershy," interrupted Applejack. "Sunset's in there and we are going to help her. Ready, y'all?"

"YEAH, LET'S GO!" cried Pinkie Pie and without a second thought stepped back from the portal, snorting like a bull and with a loud cry, charged right through the portal. With no other alternative, the rest of the humane six also charged into the portal.

…

Back at Twilight's castle, the sounds of doors knocking loudly were an indication that something was amiss. Dashing down to the doors with Spike right behind her, Twilight flung the doors open to reveal Tempest and Grubber standing right outside.

"Twilight!" gasped Tempest, her breath represented by deep gasping breaths from running so fast. "It's Arabus, he's on the move!"

"The wind monster that attacked us earlier today?" cried Twilight as Tony and Julia stepped into the front hall. "Where is he now?"

"I'm not sure, but they said he is 20 miles outside of Canterlot," answered Grubber. Twilight then looked back to Tony and Julia, realizing that any reinforcements to aid her idol and the Guardians of the Galaxy would be next to impossible as they were still reeling from the attack against Squirk.

"Twilight, what do we do?" asked Spike looking at up at her with worried eyes. "We can't risk anymore injuries."

Before Twilight could answer, Tony and Julia stepped forward.

"We'll go and inspect," he said to Twilight. "And in any case if we can get everyone out, we can do that as well."

Just then, another pair of footfalls came forward and everyone turned to see Steve Rogers, still in his Captain America suit, walking towards him.

"Wait!" he said. "You're going to need backup."

"You can't even fly, Rogers," Tony remarked. "We're going up against a wind monster here."

"So what? We've been through worse together."

Reluctantly, Tony allowed Steve to join him in aiding the fight against Arabus. Everyone watched as Tony re-activated his armor and took to the air while Steve climbed onto Twilight's back and followed.

…

Back in Tambeleon, Grogar and his fellow villains were in the process of searching for Squirk who had been tossed out to see by Scarlet Witch.

"He seems to be hard to find, my emperor," remarked Lieutenant Bray, trying to find any trace of him through the viewing globe. "Perhaps he may have disintegrated upon landing on the water."

"Squirk wouldn't disintergrate you idiot," snapped Grogar. "Keep looking! Because sooner or later, that beast will be among our circles of death."

Finally, they managed to find Squirk, unconscious in an underwater ravine and Grogar laughed evilly to himself upon finding the sea beast…
