Analysis Anarchy: The Red Spy

~Echo Nymph's POV~

"Guys, great news. Doc's plan worked." I informed everyone over the intercoms, "Everypony start returning to the spawn point in Doc's office, so we can get outta here!"

Okay, I feel like I need to catch you viewers up to speed. DustyKatt and his robot army has invaded Coal Town and Dr. Wolf and Finn have gone off to the Badlands to hold off part of the Doc's plan. Dr. Wolf has entrusted me to rally the spirits of the others to fight back and hold the fortress.

So far, we've been beating the robots easily, but the ammo and health packs haven't been respawning. I journeyed and found something that lead to the truth of Dr. Wolf's plan. So now, I'm calling everpony back.

One by one, the team members started arriving to the back of Dr. Wolf's office.

It turned out Doc created a pair of teleporters. One for the Blu Team and one for the Red Team. Very clever, huh?

"Teleporters, huh?" Mad Munchkin noted, then asked, "Are you sure you know how these things work?"

"It uses a photo-multiplier, to generate the digital blueprint of your molecular and sub-molecular before deconstructing your collective mass down to a subatomic level of atom-meters, and sending the blueprints to the destination where the blueprints reforms, as subatomic particles, by utilizing the resources of a built-in conversion unit." I explained to Maddie.

"NNNEEEEERRRRRDDD!!!" Firebrand called me in a Homer Simpson voice. I just ignored him.

"It's like the transporters from Star Trek." I simplified with a deadpan expression.

"Thanks for the reassurance summary, there, Gene Roddenberry." Maddie told me, "But are you sure it's safe?"

"I'm not sure." I answered, "But we can either die via teleporter, or under the hooves of DustyKatt and the robot army outside."

Mad Munchkin nodded, "Yeah, fair enough." She made her way to the red teleporter, "But if I end up like Mike Teevee, I'm going to shoot something. Size be darned!" She stepped into the teleporter and smiled, "Beam my up, Scotty." She giggled, "I always wanted to say that."

With that, she was gone.

"That reminds me." Keyframe spoke up, "I'm surprised that Dusty still isn't here yet."

"I'm pretty sure Ink and KP are doing fine, Key. Just get to safety and I'll let them know." I assured.

Keyframe entered the blue teleported and vanished in a beam of light. I went outside and fired a signal flare to the sky. Then I made my way back to the teleporters. The only ones left were me and Firebrand.

"Okay. That's all of them." Firebrand told me, "You're next, Frost."

I chuckled, then argued, "Uh, no. You're next, Firebrand. The team needs two Medics. Besides, Dusty is scared of me. He'll run before entering this place."

"That's why you should go in next." Firebrand pointed out, "Dusty is afraid of you. Which means you can defeat him."

"Alright. Maybe together, we'll go into the teleporters." I suggested.

He nodded. We approached our assigned teleporter. "3... 2..." I started counting. However, before I can finish, Firebrand picked me up, bridle style and threw me into the teleporter.

I appeared on the other side and landed in a heap of sand, "What the hell?!"

"Ah, Miss. Frost. Glad you can join us." Dr. Wolf greeted me with a smile.

But I was too worried about Firebrand, that I was struggling to keep my emotions under control.

That stupid, fiery-tempered, military Brony!!

With everyone accounted for, Dr. Wolf gathered us up and ready, "Okay. We need to gather everyone together for an assault on the robot's spawn point." Voice noticed someone was missing and walked off to find them, "We only get one shot at this. So everyone grab some ammo and health packs."

Suddenly, a loud explosion started everyone to a stand-still. Including myself. We all turned to Golden Fox and Voice Of Reason, and see that a Scout-bot, carrying a bomb, was taking out the other robots one-by-one. It finally landed on a large tank and the bomb went off, destroying the robot's spawn point.

All that with just one shot? How lucky are you, Golden?

Everypony cheered and smiled at Golden's accomplishment. He did the impossible. He was a hero!

Keyframe ran up to her coltfriend and hugged him, "Goldie, that was amazing. I've never seen that even in the best expert leagues! I'm so proud of you, my Goldie Bear! Oh, you're the best sniper ever, my Blu Snipie-wipie!"

Golden smirked at Voice. Voice just glared at him, "Still only counts as one."

Dr. Wolf smiled and turned to everypony, "Alright, everypony. Change of plans. Now with the robots taken care of, it's time to clean this battle field."

Everypony nodded and started cleaning up the robot parts. Finally, Firebrand arrived to the battlefield. Ink was waiting for him and heard what he said.

"Was that really wise?" She asked him.

Firebrand smiled and shook his head, "Nope. That was the stupidest thing I've ever done." Then he looked around and saw the mess of robot parts and gasped, "Did I just miss an explosion? Tha- That's my thing! How could you let me miss my thing?!"

"Hey, you're the one who insisted on being last by throwing Nymph into the teleporter." Golden reminded him, "Which she is not happy about, by the way. I think you should apologize to her, now."

"Oh." Firebrand uttered with an apologetic frown.

The Unicorn Marine walked over to me, as I was picking up pieces of robots that I thought would be good to fix the Respawn Generator.

"Hey, Nymph I know that I'm not the first person you want to see right now." He started, "But, I want to say I'm sorry for throwing you into the teleporter. I wanted to make sure you were safe, and I really wanted to rub our strategy in Dusty's face. I had no idea that my acti-"

I turned to the brick red Unicorn, "Brandon Haybestus Fire..." Then, with a swift motion, I slapped him across the face. The echoing impact of the slap caused everyone to freeze and turn toward us.

"Don't... Ever... Do... That... Again..." I told him in a deadpan tone, similar to Raven from Teen Titans.

Suddenly, another explosion caught our attention. The dust cleared to reveal it was DustyKatt. He found us and he was angry. Both teams gathered, ready to fight back, as Dusty approached us.

~Dr. Wolf's POV~

DustyKatt approached us, ready to fight. However, the group and I felt something cold coming from behind us. It was Echo Nymph. She definitely did not look happy, despite Firebrand's apology.

The group and I separated into two rows as Echo Nymph walked past us. As she walked, her Spy uniform burned into the leotard and cloak from before. Her eyes started glowing a scarlet red. Eyebrows opened into a second pair of glowing red eyes. Her fur turned snow white and her mane and tail turned into an indigo-violet flame.

It was like Miss. Nymph has turned into a demon.

Her shadow came to life and became solid tendrils of black energy or an ink-like substance.

Dusty backed away from Miss. Nymph in fear, "No... Not you... Anypony but you!"

"What's the matter, Donald? I thought you liked to prove how strong and manly you were..." Miss. Nymph asked in a demonic tone.

"But... Not to you. You're a demon! A Pony of Death. A Grudge Pony! No-one can defeat a Grudge Pony." Dusty countered.

"I am not a Grudge Pony." Miss. Nymph hissed, "I... Am a Nightmare!!!"

She charged toward Dusty at a great speed and the two powered Ponies fought between each other. Dusty using his brute strength, tried to uppercut Nymph into the air. Nymph leaped out of the way and performed a bicycle kick to Dusty's face. Dusty powered back and tackled Nymph to the ground. Covered by a cloud of dust, the two ponies fought and Dusty was able to kick Nymph into us.

"Hah! I faced my own fear. No Grudge Pony is strong enough to take me to-" Dusty cheered, until we heard laughter.

Echo Nymph was the one laughing with a smile on her face, and she was back to normal, "I got it! I can't believe I got it from him."

"Got what?" Silver Quill asked.

~Echo Nymph's POV~

I opened my hand to reveal the Alicorn Amulet in my palm.

Without the Alicorn Amulet, Dusty had no chest hair, his mustache was smaller and his eyes were back to their violet color.

"The Amulet/My Amulet!" Everyone gasped in disbelief.

I looked at DustyKatt, he looked angry, but started laughing with a smile.

"I can't believe I fell for the fake anger trick. Classic from Fairly Odd Parents, Nymph." He laughed, his accent gone, "Boy, was that fun." He smiled at us, "You clowns ain't so bad. I thought for sure, with that Amulet, this would be over in ten seconds flat."

"That's Rainbow Dash's thing, DustyKatt." I told him.

"So, Nymph. What are you gonna do with the Alicorn Amulet, now that it's yours?" Dusty asked me.

I looked at the Amulet and smiled, "You know what, Dusty." I walked over to Dusty and put the Amulet around his neck. Within seconds, his old appearance with the chest hair and red eyes returned, "You can keep it."

"What?" Everypony gasped in disbelief.

"Haven't you read the book?" I asked everyone, "Only Unicorns get corrupted, because they use magic. Earth Ponies and Pegasi are unharmed by this thing."

The others looked at each other in uncertainty. Then Dr. Wolf looked at me, "We're trusting your choice, Miss. Nymph."

Dusty smiled and spoke in the Australian accent, "For giving my Amulet back, I think I'll let you live. For now." He chuckled, "This is gonna be all sorts of fun. Just, you know, dropping in on you every now and again." Then he fare-welled, "See you around."

With that, he turned and left us. Then Voice decided to speak up, "Wait. Hold on a second." Then asked Dusty, "How exactly did you get all those robots?"

Dusty shrugged, "Dunno. They weren't mine. They were just there."

"What?!" Everyone gasped.

Dusty nodded, "Yeah. I just let them attack you for the giggles." He chuckled, then waved, "Bye-bye now."

And he was gone.

"But, if he didn't send those robots... Who did?" I wondered.

"Took the words right out of my mouth, Nymph." Dr. Wolf nodded.

The End?
