Author's Note

This is a crossover chapter with Crazy Falcon's story Ultimate Equestria. I have greatly enjoyed working on this chapter, it's also why I haven't done much work on my other stories lately.


Chapter 3: Guest

The two groups were looking at the strange object, Sunset frowned “Any idea what this thing does? I mean it had energy going somewhere from here but I’m not sure where?”

Sparks frowned “Maybe we should ask either of the Princesses about it?”

MM Pinkie shook her head “We should just see what happens, we could easily funnel some power through the object till we achieve the effect. It can’t use too much power that we can’t fill it.”

Twi grimaced “That sound incredibly dangerous, we should get an expert’s advice just in case.”

Both Rainbow and Dash shouted in unison“Nonsense, worst case scenario we can see these too use their awesome powers to defeat whatever it is!”

RB Pinkie smiled “They may be friendly, come on. These two could easily beat whoever it is if they are an enemy.”

MM Pinkie smiled “Come on Sunset, we can handle anything.”

Sunset sighed “Fine. We will handle whatever comes.” Sunset holds the objects and begins to pour her energy into them and causing it to glow opening up a portal. Sunset and MM Pinkie took a defensive stance as a creature twice the size of a human with grey cloak, a huge dinosaur like head with four eyes on the lower half of the forehead as well as a disk similar to the one that brought him here between his eyes and two of them where his ears should be shot out of the portal slamming into one of the school walls. MM Pinkie noticed there was also a pair of strange shoulder pads on his shoulders.

Before anyone could say a word, a human girl fell out of the portal before collapsing to the ground. Sunset and Pinkie approached in concern as the girl started to cough a lot. Pinkie fixes the wall with a click of her fingers as the strange creature pull itself out of the wall, it then shouts “Bella!” then gets up and runs to her ignoring Pinkie and Sunset still maintaining it’s loud volume “ARE YOU OKAY?! WHAT’S WRONG.”

Sunset and Pinkie continue to approach only for the creature to shout at them “STAY BACK!”

Sunset and Pinkie noticed she stopped coughing although she hugging herself. They take a calm breath as the girl stands up, Sunset frowned “Pinkie I think our energies are very intense. We need to suppress it further if are to approach.”

Pinkie nodded as they turned back to the pair who were looking at them. Pinkie bounces over ecstatically as she suppresses her power further “I need you to know your names so I throw you two a welcome party!”

Sunset raised an eyebrow as the creature starts laughing as Bella looks at him strangely “Seth are you…” Sunset suppressed her own power further as she got closer to the girl who used Seth to steady herself.

She sees the uncertain look in Seth’s multiple eyes as he asked Bella “You okay?”

Pinkie frowned as Bella responded “Yeah, it’s just a headache.”

Seth frowned, huffing at the end “I can see why. With the amount of energy everyone here is giving off, I think I’m absorbing it unconsciously. And I’m not even touching anyone. Ha.”

Sunset exclaimed “Wait! What?!” Her eyes narrowed to slits “Did you say you are absorbing our energy?”

Seth exclaimed “Whoa whoa. I’m sorry.” Pinkie cautiously watched Seth as he tried to calm her fuming girlfriend “You two are giving off Tonsof energy. I can absorb energy but touching it, and since you two are basically fountains of it, my body is reacting on it’s own. I’ll try to stop but with how strong you two are, I may not be able to. Again, sorry.”

Pinkie frowned “You don’t quite realise just how dangerous you are, even the fragment of power you are absorbing from us could potentially shatter multiple universes. You could be considered a god amongst gods in most universes with the power you have already have obtained from us, note that is infinitesimally small amount compare to our full power.”

Before another word could be spoken, Seth turned in the direction of a sound, Pinkie’s frown deepened “Hey. Did you hear me?”

Seth trails off “Yeah yeah., I heard you…” Pinkie and Sunset grimaced as Seth walked away, before his cloak changed, making him turn into a ball shape and roll through town with Bella calling out to him as she used magic to fly behind him. Sunset and Pinkie take off with their aura quickly catching up with the pair, Sunset roars “Are you two nuts?! Do you just use your powers without thinking?! Do you understand discretion!”

Seth unrolls himself and jumps into the air. He opens his cloak, revealing it to be a set of wings and disappearing from sight. He tells Bella “Stay with Pinkie Pie and Sunset.” He then flies under them “I can hear police sirens ahead, I’m going to see if I can help them.”

Pinkie sighed turning to Sunset as she could feel Seth moving ahead “At least he is being discreet about it. Still we shouldn’t let him act on his own.” They alongside Bella fly behind Seth watching closely, Bella winces as the cars nearly crash into a turning car. They follow around the corner only to frown as one of the cars swerved to one side of the road Seth’s energy signature being nearby.

Sunset and Pinkie’s frowns deepen as the doors of that car were then webbed shut near Seth’s energy signature. Sunset and Pinkie were following Seth as his energy moved from car to car the process repeating itself. Once the chase is stopped Sunset and Pinkie sense that Seth is flying away from them, Bella blinked in confusion as Sunset and Pinkie fly off in a random direction.

They arrive at a building where Seth having shed his invisibility contemplating something. He turns to them as they land apologising “Okay, I will admit, dashing off like that was a stupid idea, I’m sorry for that but…”

Sunset raised her hand “Relax, you did the right thing. I must admit I tend to try to avoid getting involved in smaller issues but that is largely because doing such things would be bad as me and Pinkie would probably cause more harm than good with our powers.”

Pinkie smiled “I’d like to show you two around the school, weird is quite normal there so you will cause very little fuss.”

Seth sighs in relief, he then smiles directing a question to Bella “I think I would like that, Bella?”

Bella responded “If you’re going then count me in.” Pinkie smiles clicking her fingers the trio appearing in front of the school near their friends.

Pinkie giggles as Seth said the first thing that came to mind “Well. That beats flying.”

Bella deadpans “Really?

Seth responds “What would you have said?” Bella scowls as she turns to Pinkie.

Pinkie smiled ecstatically pointing one of the two bands “This is the Mystic Monstrosities. The band that me and Sunset are part of this nerdy girl here is Twi, that is AJ with Rainbow right next to her. Gem is there next to Flutters who is kissing Shy.” She then pointed to the other band without taking a breath “The other band here is the Rainbooms, I already mentioned Shy but with them is Dash who is next to Jackie, Spectacle who is next to Sparks and there is Bouncy the other me.”

Sunset noticed everyone was looking at the two flabbergastered individuals, Seth regaining his composure pointed to himself the Bella “Hie everyone, I’m Seth. This is my friend Bella. I’m an Osmosian, formerly human and if it’s okay with you I’d rather not touch anyone.”

Bella asks “What? Why not?”

Seth pointing at Sunset and Pinkie “I have absorption powers and have already absorbed some energy from these two, so I would rather not risking hurting anyone or myself.”

Sparks raged turning into a purple demon with giant dark purple wings glaring at them “Magic Thieves, I’m going to…”

Sunset frowned standing in front of Sparks as Seth eye’s widened “Sparks, calm down. He just absorbed the excess energy our bodies emitted. We are well aware of his powers, just calm down.”

Pinkie apologised to Seth as he slowly calmed down “I’m sorry about that. The Rainbooms still learning about friendship, I must admit that I didn’t know they still had access to their demon forms. The magic of the elements stopped Sunset from transforming.”

Seth having calmed down addressed the two bands in front of him “Listen, I’m sorry about that but I can’t change it, it’s part of what I am now. Also Bella can’t abso.. oh wait mana. Hmm. Never mind that. Nonetheless, I don’t want hurt anyone unless necessary. Okay? Okay.”

Sunset cast a glare at Dash and Jackie who likely wanted to start something. She then turned to Seth “Everything should be fine, just stay away from Lyrica. She is a mage who hunts monsters and is Lyra’s double. Turns out Spark’s version of the human world had it’s own unique magic, when it fused with ours it brought it over along with doubles of everyone as well as it’s extra portal to Equestria. We have two portals , both are linked to different Equestrias.”

Seth asked “Okay, question. What is, no, are the Equestria’s like?”

Sunset smiled “Relax, I can tell you are worried about getting back to where you came from. I have already in the time you have been here I have already triangulate the position you left from and now” she clicked her fingers a mirror portal appearing on a small raised platform next to one of the horse statues “This can easily take you home assuming the weird thing I summoned you with can’t take you home.”

Seth asked “Weird thing you summoned me with?’ Pinkie reaches into her pocket and pulls out a round black object. Seth asked “One of my speakers? How did that get here? And you used that to summon me and Bella? How?”

Pinkie frowned “Sunset funnelled her energy through it, it already had a summoning matrix in it. From what we have gathered it is supposed to speak to certain individuals like yourself, it took a very intricate scan to discover that. We have also detected universal influx energy in you that came from somewhere, we have tracked the user and…”

A strange genie looking figure turned up “May I explain myself before one of the goddesses punches me in the face?”

Seth immediately punches him in the face, Seth growled “That’s for turning me into this!”

Bella fired two balls of mana into the Genie “And that’s for taking us from our homes!” The Rainbooms and Twi were shocked, feral grins however came across the other members of MM band.

The Genie said “Okay, I deserved that, but if you’ll allow me to explain.”

‘Flutters’ stood up holding a meat cleaver “I don’t think so, we’re going to have some fun with you first. I haven’t got to butcher someone in so long.”

‘Rainbow’ stood up, a lab coat materialising over her “I hope you leave some for the rest of us Butchershy.”

‘Gem’ stood up, she had three red scars along one of her eyes and was carrying a Pinkamena Doll “I agree with Dr Dash, we all need to get some killing in.”

‘AJ’ stood up, she was now a scarecrow carrying a huge scythe “Little Miss Rarity, don’t forget about me. I really could use a good culling.”

The Genie’s eyes widened “Butchershy Pinkamena’s dreaded companion, Dr Dash master of the Rainbow Factory, Little Miss Rarity the Deranged Masochist and Applehack, the Reapers of the Fields.”

Sunset’s eyes narrowed as she bound him with her power “You have such great power, you have used it like a child. You are a god in your own right, they can’t kill you which means I have no qualms in letting them have their fun.”

Then Seth stood between them and the Genie looking at the woman in front of him “As much as I would love for you to turn you him into a pulp, I can’t let you. That being said,” he turns to the Genie. “You offered an explanation? Good. Speak quickly before our patience runs thin.”

The Genie looks at all of them before clearing his throat, he then points to Bella and Seth “Ahem, you two are something called a displaced, or dimensionally misplaced. Displaced are beings that my kind, Displacers and Void Dwellers, sent into different parts of the universe. You,” He points to Seth “I displaced as an Osmosian Hybrid, as you read in my letter. Displaced can contact each other by making tokens. Think of them as calling cards. With them, Displaced can summon, or be summoned by other Displaced. Or very powerful beings, as is the case that has happened here. Your token, Seth, is one of your sonic disks. And yes, that’s their proper name. Not Echo speakers.”

Seth said “I don’t remember making a token.’

The Genie chuckled “Funny thing actually. You actually made you token accidently, while you were fighting Aggregor.”

Bella asked “Wait, what? When did this happen?”

Seth answered “They day before you arrived.” he then directed his attention to the Genie “Carry on.”

The Genie told the, pointed to the disk in Pinkie’s hand “The rush of power you felt? That was when you made your token. The speech you made then became your creed and that sonic disk, your token.”

Pinkie stepped in front of the Genie, a cold fury in her eyes “I’m sorry but my friends are awaiting a toy. If you don’t find them something soon, they will start attacking innocent people. So I need suitable bad guys or I will throw you to them, is that clear?”

Seth said “Wait, one more thing.” He walks over the Genie and kneels looking him in the eye “Why did you displace us?’

The Genie starts laughing “Because I could, and it’s what I do.”

Seth stands up and turns to the MM’s baring Twilight, Sunset and Pinkie “Girls.” He then turns on his heel and raises an arm to the Genie, his finger sinking into his metal knuckles and forming a missile launcher. He fires a small volley of missiles at him and said “He’s all yours.” As the MM’s jump on him tearing into him with maddening glee he turns to Sunset “Keep my token. If you ever want to take care of someone dangerous.” He clenches his upheld fist as he continues “I have a few ways of making sure they don’t hurt anyone.”

Sunset shakes her head “That won’t be necessary. Still do you want have a look around the school?”

Seth said to Sunset “I think it would be best if we went home. Who knows what everypony is thinking right now. Screwball must be worried. But thanks, it was nice meeting you, come on Bella.”

Sunset clicked her fingers opening and smiled to Pinkie as the two guest left “We need to visit their world sometime.”

Pinkie smiled “I agree, they seem like a fun duo.” The pair head back to their friends who have calmed down, they ignore the writhing Genie as the two bands head into the school.
