Monsuno: Friendship is Magic

TCT, the Mane 6 and SS were up one bright morning. They were all going to Sarah's room to get her up. Her door opened, "Sarah, wake up." Chase called. "It's time for breakfast."

Chase got a groan in response, "I don't want it."

"Huh?" Pinkie asked. A hoarse cough came next and some sneezing. TCT approached Sarah's bed and saw her back facing them, "Sarah, are you alright?" Beyal asked. Sarah sniffled and turned to face them, "Do I look alright to you?" she asked hoarsely.

TCT, the girls and SS gasped. Sarah was horribly pale with horrid bags under her eyes. Her hair was messy and she looked really weak. "Woah.. uh... what happened to you?" Kilo asked.

"I-I don't feel so well." Sarah groaned before she swayed back and forth and then collapsed. "Sarah!" TCT Cried. The Mane 6 and SS came over to her. "What happened?" Rarity asked. They all saw her chest was glowing green again. "Oh dear, something's very wrong." Beyal said.

"Let's go get my dad." Chase said. Everyone nodded and they all went to Chases' dad with Alpha carrying Sarah in his arms.

Soon Sarah was on a table being scanned in the infirmary. Jon Ace and Trey were present as well. "How is she Doctor?" Jon asked.

"According to the scans. The essence inside of Sarah is reaching critical levels." Jeredy said.

"Critical Levels?" Twilight asked.

"Yes, the essence is becoming too much for Sarah's body to handle. If we don't stabilize the essence soon, it will destroy her." Jeredy added earning a gasp from everyone.

"Can't you send a frequency into her, Doctor?" Jon asked.

"No, the frequency might make the essence levels rise even more." Jeredy said.

"But we have to do something." X-Ray stated. "But what?" Suddenly, there was a glow and a sparkling version of Twilight appeared in the room.

"I believe I can lend some assistance." it said.

"Tree of Harmony?!" The gang exclaimed.

"The who?" The adults asked.

The Tree walked over to the gang. "I can lend you something that shall heal your friend." it said and them six familiar gemstones appeared.

"The Elements of Harmony!" Twilight gasped. The tree floated them over to the gang and the Elements of Loyalty, Kindness, Generosity, Honesty and Laughter became necklaces on the Rainbow, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack and Pinkie Pie's necks while the Element of Magic became a crown on Twilight's head. "So.. uh, what do they do exactly?" Kilo asked.

"They have the power to heal and banish anything. They are the most powerful weapon in Equestria." Twilight explained. The girls formed a circle around Sarah, "And now we're going to use them to heal Sarah." Twilight concentrated and her Element glowed brightly and the other five Elements glowed as well. "Woah..." the teenagers and adults gasped.

The Elements sent out a magical ring around Sarah and she floated into the air a little. Jeredy checked her essence levels. "Her levels are becoming stable again!" he cried happily. The magic ring went into Sarah and she was lowered back onto the table and the girls landed on the ground and their Elements stopped glowing.

"Woah... tense." Chase gasped.

"Yeah, they're pretty awesome." Rainbow added. Sarah's eyes squinted before they opened, "Huh? ...What happened?" she asked.

"Easy Sarah, your essence levels were at critical but Twilight and the girls healed you." Jeredy said. "Now your essence levels are back to normal."

"Okay.." Sarah said.

"Now you should rest just in case." Jon said.

Sarah nodded and the gang led her to bed.

The Next Morning

One morning in the room, Jinja was taking a nap. She was having a peaceful map when a fly landed on her nose. She smacked the fly away, waking herself up. Sitting up she looked at her calendar, “What day is it?” she pressed the button and noticed the third day was circled. “Oh, it’s my birthday!” she sighed, “Talk about the most boring birthday ever, guess my friends forgot.”

Then she heard a voice coming from outside the room, “Oh, let’s take Jinja on a whale watch for her birthday.”

“Or did they?” she got up and went to the door. It opened, and she peeked to see her friends talking about what to do for her birthday. “It’s off season and there won’t be any whales, so it’ll be cheaper for us.” Dax suggested.

“No way, I think we should take her to see the animated movie about the cheese that wants to join the ballet.” Bren added.

“Guys, I think I know Jinja best, so I’ll decided, she’d like a classic picnic in the park with a piñata and hide-and-seek.” Chase added.

The boys liked it. “That is so Jinja.” Bren agreed.

“She’ll blezin love it.” Dax said. That’s when Jinja came out of hiding and she didn’t look happy. She went on about how the suggestions were horrible and the boys didn’t really know her. All her scolding woke up , she had a sleeping mask on her face. “Wha-What’s wrong?” she asked.

“Nothing Sapphire.” Jinja said. She was about to walk away when Commandant Marshall Jon Ace appeared on the screen. “Team Core Tech, look alive. Explise has just blow a massive hole in the middle of Centium City. Suit up you’re going in.” The screen disappeared for a second then reappeared. “Oh, and Jinja, Happy Birthday.” And they disappeared again.

“Yeah, thanks.” Jinja grunted. Sarah came up and hugged her, “Happy Birthday.” Jinja sighed but she had to smile at her.

Soon the team arrived at Centium City and were going down the hole that was blown into the city. The hopper landed, and the team came across a large temple with pillars that had pictures on them. “And things just got creepier.” Bren commented.

Chase looked at Beyal, “So you assume that because I am a monk I can read this strange language as well?”

“Well, can you?”

“… Yes.” Beyal went to one of the pillars. “It is a warning made by someone called the Mad Monk. He built his temple centuries ago. To protect a glowing treasure from the heavens.”

“Monsuno Essence.” The team exclaimed in unison. “So Explise came here for monsuno essence. Must be something more special about it than usual. Let’s go get it.” Jinja said.

“Wait.” Beyal cut in. “There is more. The Mad Monk warns of the temples’ many guardians including his spirit.” Jinja gasped softly, while Bren got even more freaked out. “Ha, a ghost? There’s no way this place is haunted by a gho-“

He was cut off when a ghostly roar was heard sending shivers up his back. “I’ll wait out here.”

“Haunted, Smaunted.” Dax scoffed. “If Explise wants to get out with that essence he’ll have to fight his way out. Come on, we gotta find the entrance to his thing.” Dax walked off with the others, except Bren followed… until he decided to not stay at the front of the temple. “Hey, wait up guys!” he called.

The team saw Dr. Explise at the door to the temple. “Hold it right there, Explise.” Chase stated. Explise turned, “Try as you might, but you won’t survive without these.” He claimed, holding a golden key and a scroll. Laughing, he opened the temple door, entered and closed it. “oh Blezin fantastic, he’s getting’ away.” Dax exclaimed.

“We have to stop him.” Chase said.

“I’m afraid I can not allow you to do that.” A voice came from behind. TCT turned and saw Petros, Dasha and Terz followed by Droog. Sarah squeaked and hid behind Jinja. “Droog and the Armpits of Destiny. Ugh. I rather face the Mad Monk.”

“He will probably let you live, while we on the other hand we not.” Dasha said.

“So you’re here for the essence too? What’s so great about it? What? Is it cherry flavored or something.”

“Legends suggests it is concentrated, more powerful than you can imagine.” Droog said.

‘We only recently learned of the legends truth after spying on Exlipse, he did all the work and we simply had to follow him.” Petros explained.

“Be our guest, we’d like to see you duke it out over a silly legend.” Chase said.

“That is not the plan.” Droog added. “We will avoid the temple traps and guardians by merely stealing the essence from Explise when he is done and you shall not get in our way.”

Droog, Petros, Terz an Dasha launched Quorp, Zornax, Quarb and Klorg.

“Deepsix!”

“Mysticblade!”

“Shellshot!”

“Clubber!”

“Skyfall!”

“Skystar!”

“LAUNCH!”

All the cores ‘clinked’ together and the mosunos appeared. “Kragg, happy birthday to me.” Jinja groaned.

“Don’t worry Jinja, the parks’ opened late and you’ll love the piñata.” Chase reassured.

“Zornax, use Syconis Ray.” Dasha called. Zornax blasted Deepsix and he glowed green. He turned around and used Depth Fire on TCT’s monsunos. Skystar was the only one whom dodged the attack. “No Deepsix, Attack the other way! The other way!” Chase ordered.

In no time, the battle went down hill for TCT. Shellshot, Clubber, Mysticblade and Skyfall were defeated only leaving Skystar in battle. The monsuno landed near her controller. The four alien monsunos cornered the team. “This is not good.” Chase said.

“Not good as in we’re dead meat?” Bren whimpered.

“What a coincidence little Bren, our monsunos are hungry.” Petros said. Skystar roared at the four alien monusnos.

"Worst brithday.. ever." Jinja grumbled.

Skystar roared at the four monsunos. "The temple is our only cover, lets go." Chase said. TCT, except for Sarah ran up the stairs of the temple until Jinja stepped on one and it went down and the ground began shaking, "Umm guys.. I think I just activated whatever that is."

Then a large boulder came down from ceiling and rolled down the stairs. "Watch it!" Chase said. He and his friends leaped out of the way. "Oy, Sarah, what out!" Dax called.

"Huh?" Sarah turned and saw the large boulder, "GAAHH!" Skystar grabbed her owner and flew out of the way while Droog and the Hand of Destiny ran away and jumped off of a small cliff. "Well.. that was unexpected." Sarah said as Skystar put her down. "Thanks for the save, girl." Skystar purred and nuzzled Sarah. "Return girl." Skystar glowed blue and she returned to her core.

"It appears we no longer need a key." Beyal said seeing that gaping hole in the door caused by the boulder. "Then let's get to that essence before Explise does." Chase said.

"Yeah, super powered monsuno essence in the hands of that freak bait can not be a good thing." Jinja added. The gang entered the temple and came into a room that had lava waterfalls on the sides and a large door in front of them. "Huh, Explise came in here but I don't see a way out. So I only have one question.. can we please leave this place is haunted?!" Ben asked frantically.

"Bren there is no such thing as ghosts." Jinja said. Then a haunted cry was heard. "Woah did you hear that maybe Bren's right. Maybe this place is haunted."

"Of course I'm right!" Bren exclaimed.

"It appears Explises' key deactivates the temple's obstacles. Sadly, we do not have that benefit." Beyal said.

"I'm guessing the key would but off the lava, letting us by." Chase said.

"And sine we don't have the key, looks like we're not getting by." Dax said.

"Boys, we have something much better than a key. We have monsunos." Jinja said. She put on a strike glove and a launcher and placed Charger's core inside and aimed it at a chain. "Charger.. Launch!" The core spun and hit the chain, released Charger. "Charger break that chain." Jinja ordered. Charger snorted and broke the chain using his antlers and the door fell into the lava, cutting it off and some stones steps came up and headed for the door. "Come on guys, let's go." Chase said. His friends followed him as they leaped across the stones and down a hallway.

Then, Sarah saw something out the corner of her eye. A small glow coming from... the wall? "Huh?" Sarah went over to it and touched the wall. The wall suddenly glowed and moved to the side revealing a hidden passageway! "Woah..." she gasped. She slowly walked into the passageway and the wall closed behind her, leaving her in the dark. "Uh oh... that can't be good." she gulped nervously. "Hello... is anyone there?" she called out.

She saw the glow at the end of the passageway and she continue to walk slowly through the dim hallway. She reached the glow and came into a large room that had a small podium in the center and floating over the pedestal was a Scepter. The Scepter was golden with a light blue diamond shaped jewel at the top. "Woah..."

Sarah walked up to the podium and she grabbed the Scepter in her hands. The jewel glowed brightly and then went out. "Wonder what this is..." Sarah wondered. She looked around the room, "Now... how do I get out of here?" Sarah asked. Suddenly, a section of the wall came out and moved to the right to reveal another passageway. "...Guess I found it." Sarah walked down the passage came out in another room. She saw her friends on a weird spiritual circle, a creepy ghost and Explise. "What? How did you escape?" Explise growled.

"Sarah, be careful!" Jinja called. The Mad Monk Ghost hissed and flew towards her. Sarah gasped and suddenly swung her scepter at the Ghost. "Get away!" Suddenly, the jewel blasted a sphere of power and it knocked the Ghost back. "Woah! What the-?!" Sarah exclaimed.

"What the kragg was that?" Bren exclaimed. The Mad Monk Ghost then flew back up into the shadows. "No, come back, I need that monsuno essance. I need it." Explise called as Sarah came over to her friends. "Are you guys alright?" she asked.

"We're fine." Chase said.

Explise growled at Sarah, "You'll pay for that. Ordon.. Launch!" he spun out his core and Sarah did the same, "Skystar, launch!" The two cores clicked and Ordon and Skystar roared.

"Lava Bomb!" Ordon launched Lava Bombs at Skystar. "Up into the air!" Skystar soared into the air with a proud cry and she dove for Ordon, crashing into him and knocking him into a wall. "Now Energy Pulse! Full Power!" Skystar formed a sphere of energy in her mouth and launched it at Ordon. The attack hit directly and Ordon roared and he returned to his core. "Grrr. curse you Team Core Tech!" Explise exclaimed.

Skystar landed near the team, "Come on guys, let's go." Sarah said. TCT nodded and they all got on Skystar and she flew out of the cave and through the air back to STORM. "Sarah, where did you find that scepter?" Beyal asked.

"I don't know.. there was a glowing in one of the walls and I followed it. It lead me down a hidden passageway and there was a podium with the scepter floating over it. I grabbed it and the jewel glowed." Sarah explained.

"Woah... maybe my dad knows." Chase suggested.

"Maybe." Sarah looked at the scepter, "What are you?"
