A whole new world

Hello there, my name is Dustin Miller. Allow me to explain myself. First off, I’m a sixteen-year-old, I have red hair, yellow eyes, my attire consists of a short-sleeved, orange and white shirt, a red blazer, baggy olive pants and white sneakers.

Now, I know you’re going to think I’m crazy for what I’m about to tell you. Hell, even I would even think that I’ve lost my mind for what I’m about to tell you.

It was a bright and sunny day, and I was riding my back from a friend’s house. But by the time I arrived at my house, I noticed that the place was quiet.

The garage would regularly be having loud noises because of my parents working on some new invention. Hell, I can’t even count how many complaints the neighbors have given to my folks about the loud noises. But after hearing nothing from the house, I felt that something was off. I hopped off my bike bolted into the house.

My heart sank to my stomach when I saw that the house was completely ransacked. The place was a complete mess, there was broken China, thrown furniture, the place was a huge mess.

“Mom? Dad?” I called out frantically, only to get absolutely no reply. I looked on every room, which were all trashed, but found no sign of them. Worry and fear began to fill me.

I then hear a loud thud from the hallway. I slowly began to the hallway to walk my way towards the source of the noise, while also trying to be as quiet as a mouse. Once I reached the source, I didn’t know if I was dreaming, or I was going completely crazy.

What I saw was a humanoid robot that was rummaging through stuff, trying to find something. It has a distinctly humanoid appearance in comparison, a pair of long, thin legs that seemed to be designed for agility and speed, was covered in patterns of light and have a green glow inside its head.

It seemed to be looking for something. Whatever it was looking for must be very well hidden if the messes it made were of any indication. Out of fright, I slowly began to back away, but I accidently kicked over a piece of rubble, making the robot stop what it was doing and looked at me. I just froze in total fear, never uttering a sound as the robot aimed a blaster at me.

“Halt! Prepare to be annihilated!” The robot said, its blaster ready to fire.

‘Nope!’ I thought before running out. I got on my bike and, well to say I was burning rubber would be the understatement of the century. I’m surprised the tires of my bike weren’t on fire by how fast I pedaled down the road. But as I pedaled down the road, I turned to see the robot chasing me with speeds no normal person could ever even dream of achieving.

“There is no escape!” The robot called out to me before chasing me. As the robot chased me, it fired energy blasts at me, but I was quick enough to dodge most of them.

I eventually found an alleyway, so I went down it, desperately trying to find someplace safe to hide from this metalhead. But all I found was a dead end. I know, how convenient.

“Aw, crap!” I swore as the robot teleported to me. Yeah, freaking teleported. “Are you kidding me? This thing can teleport!?”

“Prepare for immediate termin…” The robot said but was suddenly cut off as an energy blast literally blew its head clean off its shoulders, and the rest vanished in a flurry of glowing green flakes. And the source of the blast to find a man in his mid-fifties with grey hair, brown eyes, and slight wrinkles on his face. But what as strange about him is that wearing some weird outfit.

And when I say weird, I mean weird as in something you’d find in an anime or something. He wears a sort of a single black leather hooded coat with a silver zipper and sleeves longer than normal and protruding from the ends of his sleeves are strangely constructed angular projections. He also wears a long, blue cape as well as linear patterned panels on his shoulders.

“Uh…Thanks mister….” I said, unsure if what I was seeing was real or not.

“Allister. My name is Allister.” The man named Allister introduced himself. He then approaches me, making me feel cautious in case he tries something. “Now, I’m certain you’re full of questions, Dustin Miller.” Allister said, shocking me beyond belief.

“How do you know my name?!” How did this guy know my name, anyway? I’ve never seen this dude before in my entire life.

“Now, now. No need to be hasty. I’ll explain everything once we’ve head to someplace safe. No doubt there will be more of those robots.” Allister said to me. I was hesitant at first, but I decided to just roll with it.

“Alright, fine! But this better not be a trick!” I said as Allister lead the way.

Later

After a few minutes of walking, we arrive at what looks like an old garage. But there were computers all over the place, some parts of machinery, seriously, it’s like somebody was working on something here.

“Wow! Somebody needs to do some cleaning around here man.” I said with a whistle.

“Yes, forgive me for the mess.” Allister then turns around to face me. “Now. I assume you have some questions to ask?” Allister said as he sat on a stool, while I just stood in place.

“Yeah. First one you never answered was how do you know my name?” I asked with what little patience I had left. I find my house a mess, my parents mysteriously gone missing, a robot chased my down and some man in a strange uniform saved my ass, definitely been a hell of a day for me.

“Well, I know your parents, Zeke and Lexi Miller.” Allister said, shocking me. They’ve never mentioned about this guy, but again I never asked. I grabbed a nearby chair and took a seat.

“Ok, next question. Just what in God’s name was that metalhead that chased me earlier?” I asked, and Allister nodded.

“That was a Pawn.” Allister said, confusing me.

“A what?” I asked in confusion.

“A pawn. One of many robotic foot soldiers who serve a villainous faction called The Syndicate.” Allister said before rising from the stool to grab a vanilla folder filled with various papers before sitting back down on the stool. “Now, I assume you’re going to ask what The Syndicate is, correct?”

“Pretty much.” I nodded. Allister then hands me the folder.

“In this folder lies the answer to that question.” Allister said as I opened the folder. Inside were various documents, journal notes, blueprints of various devices, but then I noticed a photo of my parents, a younger Allister, and a man with shoulder length hair dressed in a black trench coat.

“The man you see in that photo is the leader of The Syndicate named Ginzo.” Allister said as I closed the folder.

“And as for the Syndicate’s purpose, they simply plan to seize government control over the world.” Allister’s words shocked me, but what he said next would surprise me even further.

“Me and your parents used to work for Ginzo as well. But once we learned of Ginzo’s intent, we grabbed the last thing we’ve made, destroy all files concerning it, and defected.” This information was just so much. I mean, think about it. If you learned that your parents learned that they used to work for some madman, you’d be as speechless as I was right now.

“And I know what you’re going to ask next. “Where are my parents now”, correct?” Allister asked, making me nod. “Well, sadly, I have no clue.” When Allister said this, I was dumbfounded.

“What the hell do you mean you don’t know?! My parents are missing for Christ’s sake, and you’re saying you have no damn clue where they are!?” I yelled before covering my mouth, realizing that I swore. Trust me, swearing can be a bad habit.

“Sorry for the foul language.” I apologized, but Allister just waved his hand.

“No need for apologies. If I were in your shoes, I would react the same way.” Allister said before rising from his seat and walks over to a desk, grabs a small box and walks back to me and sits down.

“In this box is the one thing that will put is the one thing that will bring The Syndicate to their knees.” Allister said before opening the box, revealing a strange device that looked somewhat like a smart watch.

“Whoa.” I was just amazed at how cool the thing looked.

“Remember when I said that your parents and I stole that last thing we’ve mad? Well, this is that device. It’s called the Digitrix.” Allister said, but then I noticed something familiar in the name.

“Wait! Is that thing something like the Omnitrix from Ben 10?” I asked with a raised eyebrow, and Allister nodded.

“Quite the sharp wit you have my boy. Your parents always said you enjoyed the show at a young age.” Allister said with a chuckle.

“Heh, I still enjoy it. That is until the reboot came.” I said with a groan.

“Yes, but back on topic. This device, however, transforms you into beings composed of computer data.” As Allister said this, my interest was raised.

“Wait! You mean like Digimon?” I asked with curiosity.

“In a sense yes. I’m sure you’ve heard of the concept of a digital world before.” Allister said, making me nod. “But what about a digital universe?” As Allister mentioned the word “digital universe”, I was even more interested, while shocked as well.

“Wait, wait! Digital Universe? I’ve never heard of something like that!” I’ve heard of a Digital world, but a digital universe, now that I can guarantee is a topic not a lot of people may have touched on.

“Well, it’s more simply known as Cyberspace. In cyberspace, worlds are known as sites. And throughout cyberspace, there are millions upon millions of digital lifeforms, some that have arisen naturally, and others that were the result of human tampering.” Allister said as he handed me the Digitrix.

“Your parents made this not only as a tool for the Syndicate’s downfall, but also as a way for you to learn about the many digital beings in Cyberspace as well.” As Allister said this, I looked at the Digitrix, feeling a little hesitant upon putting that thing on my wrist. “I know this is all a lot to take in, and on such short notice, but you are the only one that can end the Syndicate’s reign.”

But why me. For god’s sake, I’m a sixteen-year-old Freshman student as High School. Plus, what if the Digitrix has some side effects upon transformation, or what would happen if I were to remain a transformation? A lot of things were going through my mind. But if my parents and Allister made this thing for me, then I suppose I have no choice but to take the mantle. I grabbed the Digitrix and strapped it onto my left wrist.

“You’ve made a wise choice, my boy.” Allister said with a smile filled with compassion. “I know that the Digitrix is in good hands.” Allister’s words made me bashful a bit.

But before anymore could be said. The garage door was broken in, revealing three robots. One was a pawn, but the other two were different.

They looked like a Pawn, but ha a slight insectoid appearance. Additionally, they both have a carapace resembles that of an insect, have two sets of arms; two large, artificial arms at each shoulder in which the weapons are mounted, one being a blaster and the other a sword, a pair of extremely powerful legs that are designed for agility and speed.

“Oh great. Another Pawn and two Gladiators. Get behind me!” Allister said, and I just did as he said. The three robots aimed at Allister.

“You have but one chance to surrender yourselves, or you suffer immediate termination!” The Pawn declared, but Allister looked to me.

“Digitrix! Activate teleportation feature!” Allister said, making the Digitrix beep.

“Accessing feature! State coordinates or name destination!” The Digitrix said, and I was confused.

“Destination – Canterlot High!” Allister said, and the Digitrix beeped again.

“Location found! Commencing teleportation.” The Digitrix said before emitting a blue glow. I stood there in shock as the device began glowing before the glow that first emanated from the center began to expand outward.

“You’ve been warned! Fire at will!” The Pawn declared as it and the two gladiators fired their weapons, only for Allister’s weird claw thing to spin like propellers, deflecting each one. The Digitrix and the section of my arm that it was on both disintegrated as did my hand in a blue circle of energy.

“Allister!” I called in worry, but he looked to me with a reassuring smile.

“Don’t worry about me, Dustin. I’ll catch up in a jiffy.” Allister said

“Are you sure.” I asked, but Allister never answered as he still kept that smile on his face.

I just nodded my head as the energy traveled up my arm, across my body and legs, engulfing my face except for my eyes. Once my body was covered, an explosion was made, creating a blast of energy that knocked the three robots off their feet. Allister stood with a glare on his face.

“Now, it’s just you three junkyards and me.” Allister said to the robots.

The gang's back together

OST - Code Lyoko Theme Song (metal remix) by Red Mertah

It was morning, and me and Twilight were walking to Canterlot High.

“Good morning, students, and happy Thursday. Just a reminder to pick up your ballots for the Princess of the Fall Formal today, they are due at the time the dance starts tomorrow night. So don't forget to turn them in and make your voice heard.” Principal Celestia said through the P.A. system.

“Fluttershy said I'd need to win over all those different groups if I wanna become Princess of the Fall Formal. So I've compiled a list of talking points.” Twilight said to me and Spike.

“Though, I bet it’s not going to be so easy.” I said to Twilight, who knew I was right.

“You made a list? That's so unlike you!” Spike laughed a bit, making me and Twilight glare at him, making him stop his fit of laughter. “Uh... Please... Continue.” Spike said nervously.

“I'll start introducing myself, sprinkle in some things I learned about their world into the conversation and show them how I fit in here!” Twilight said in determination.

“Well, hopefully this idea works.” I said to Twilight, patting her back to give a confidence boost.

“Okay, Spike. Time to make a good first impression on my fellow students, the whole world sorta depends on it.” Twilight said as we entered the building. Everything seemed to be going good, when suddenly…

“Hey, look.” A student said, and many of the other students seemed to be laughing. Their focus was on Twilight, to which we were confused.

“Why is everybody looking at me funny?” Twilight asked me, to which I just shrugged.

“No clue.” I said, just as confused when a female student walks to me.

“Hey. I saw the video you were in.” The female student said to me, confusing me.

“Uh…what video”, I asked with an eyebrow raised in confusion.

“This one”, she said, pulling out her phone and showing me a video of… me turning into Indestructile and scaring off the thugs from the other day. Me and twilight were shocked at this.

“I gotta admit. The effects were so killer!” She said to me, and Twilight started to panic.

“Oh no, your secret’s been revealed! What are we-” Twilight said, but I just covered her mouth before looking to the girl.

“Oh, thank you for the praise. I have a friend who specializes in digital effects.” I said to the female student when suddenly, I notice Twilight get dragged into a room. “Uh, sorry, gotta cut this short.” I said before entering the room

“Whoa! What're you...? Why did you...?” Twilight said, and we notice a girl with white skin, blue eyes and curly purple hair. “Rarity”, Twilight asked dumbfounded as the girl named rarity placed a green dress and blonde wig on Twilight for some odd reason.

“Perfect! Oh, yes. This is good! No one will recognize you!” Rarity said, confusing me and Twilight.

“Huh?” I just asked out of total confusion, not knowing what was going on.

“Why wouldn't I wanna be…“ Twilight said, before being cut off by Rarity as she noticed Spike.

“And we'll need a disguise for your dog, which is too bad. He really is so adorable! Y'know, with a little work, I think I could make him look like a rabbit instead.” Rarity said, confusing me and Twilight even ore.

“Uh, I don’t mean to interrupt, but what is…” I said before hearing a door open, and seeing Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and even Allister walks in.

“There you are, Twilight.” Applejack said in worry.

“So much for the disguise”, Rarity said in disappointment.

Applejack: I've been lookin' all over for ya!

“Me too”, Fluttershy said in agreement.

“Me three, I like your new look!” Pinkie said to Twilight.

“I do have an eye for these sorts of things. Not that you seem to care.” Rarity said to pinkie, catching her off guard.

“Why do you think she doesn't care?” Twilight asked, but my patience wore thin.

“HEY! WHAT IN GOD’S NAME IS GOING ON OVER HERE?! Can somebody please explain to me why the hell everybody was laughing at Twilight earlier?!” I asked with little patience I had left, startling everybody present.

“Oh, you haven't seen it yet.” Fluttershy said, confusing me and Twilight even more.

“Seen what?” Twilight asked as Pinkie brought out her laptop, typing into a website similar to YouTube.

“Oh, it's really not that bad.” Pinkie said with a nervous laugh before clicking on the video. And what me and Twilight saw shocked us.

“Twilight Sparkle wants to be your Fall Formal Princess. But what does it say about our school if we give someone like this... such an important honor?” The voice of Sunset Shimmer spoke in the video, which showed Twilight in the library, scenes that made er look like a grade-A idiot.

“Wha... I...” Twilight uttered in shock.

“The fuck”, I just said, just as shocked as Twilight was.

“Yeah, I take that back," Pinkie Pie said bluntly, "It's pretty bad."

"But this all happened yesterday!" Twilight said as she turned around.

“Those clever little shits”, I said, making everybody look to me. “Those two stooges of Sunset’s must have found a way to back up the footage they’ve capture.” I said with an angry growl.

“No doubt that could be the case”, Allister said with a shrug.

"Has everyone in the school seen this?" Twilight asked nervously, "Is that why they were all looking at me that way?" The other girls said nothing as they kept their mouths shut, while I just stood there with his arms crossed.

"What am I gonna do?" Twilight asked, "No one is gonna vote for me after seeing this!"

"Allow me." I said before pressing the power button on the Digitrix.

"What're you doing?" Applejack asked, looking curiously over my shoulder.

"Just give me a second," I replied as I searched through the transformation roster index, until finding the right one.

"Seriously, what are you doing with that strange watch of yours?" Rarity asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Just watch." I said before tapping the Digitrix Screen, beginning the transformation. My whole body was surrounded the ring of Bar Code, encasing me in an egg-shaped dome as my skin began to glow so my entire body was now a shining silhouette of white light. Two rectangular 'plates' seemed to appear out of nowhere and they surrounded my glowing form, one in front and the other behind, both standing vertical before moving towards each other, squashing around me like I was in a press mold.

The images of what looks like a black kimono with green lines creature then appeared out of nowhere and fused onto my body before the 'mold' suddenly exploded and my new form fell through the air and landed on a small square platform with the Digitrix Symbol before lashing multiple threads like a bunch of whips.

I resembled a black kimono with green circuitry line, a green sash in the middle, my eyes glowed from yellow to green, my mouth looked like a jagged gash cut across the sash, and the Digitrix appeared between my eyes. I locked somewhat like Kamui Senketsu from Kill la Kill.

"SOFTWEAR!" I yelled in a robotic voice.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Softwear
Species: Technoclotho
Wanna kick bad guy ass in style, well look no further than Softwear. A member of the species called the Technoclothos, a species that resembles sentient clothing. Created from the data of Kamui Senketsu from the anime Kill la Kill, Upgrade from the Ben 10 franchise, and the Kosode no te of Japanese folklore, the threads that make up his body is composed of some pretty sophisticated state-of the-art nanotechnology. Essentially, he is clothing weaponized, as well as a comfy piece of clothing and a technologically advanced weapon rolled in one.

"Oh my…" Fluttershy said with a gasp.

"That. Is. So. COOL!" Pinkie screamed.

“Uh, did he just turn into a talking dress?” Applejack asked with confusion present in her tone.

“Actually, it’s a Kimono, which is a traditional Japanese garment and the national dress of Japan.” Allister explained to Applejack.

"You girls are the only ones beside Twilight I really want to reveal this to." I then stretched out his arms. “Alright Softwear, work your magic.” I said as multiple threads emerged from my…us “cuffs”, and the strands touched the screen. I then closed my eyes in deep concentration, and sure enough the screen of the laptop began to flash.

"Hey!" Pinkie shouted, "You better not be getting any bugs in my laptop!" Pinkie shouted to me.

“Quiet please!” I said to Pinkie, making her shut her mouth.

“Relax, my dear. He knows what he’s doing.” Allister said to Pinkie. After a good minute, the strands receded back into my sleeves.

“That oughta do it.” I said with a grin.

"What did you even do?" Rarity asked with a raised eyebrow.

“I implanted a virus into the video.” I said, making everybody present gasp in sock, except Twilight who was confused about what I meant.

“You what”, Pinkie asked.

“I’m kidding, I’m kidding. It was a backdoor.” I said, making everyone apart from Twilight more mortified.

“Excuse me?!” Applejack asked in total shock.

“You didn’t!” Rarity said in a scolding manner.

“Again, I’m kidding! I just deleted the entire video.” I said before clicking and typing for a few seconds before letting, showing that the video was deleted.

"It's completely gone!" Pinkie exclaimed with a jump, "He deleted the whole thing!"

“That wasn’t funny though, buster!” Applejack scolded me.

"No need to thank me Twilight." I said to Twilight. But rather than get a smile, I saw a somber look on her face. I then realized what the somber look was about. "Oh, right. That doesn't change the fact that everyone has still seen the video…" I said bluntly while feeling like an idiot for not thinking about that bit, making Twilight glare back me for the reply.

“Not that it'll make any difference, but I'll still vote for you.” Fluttershy said to Twilight as I turned back to human form. “You and Dustin were so nice to stand up for me when Sunset Shimmer was picking on me yesterday.” Fluttershy said, making me blush a bit.

“If ya still wanna run, maybe there's something I can do to help!” Pinkie said to Twilight.

“Word of advice don't accept her help. She doesn't take anything seriously!” Fluttershy said to me and Twilight, making Pinkie slump over.

“Ugh! Why do you have to be so awful to me?” Pinkie said rather hurt by such words.

“Oh boy”, I muttered as Rarity walked to Pinkie.

“Oh! Pff. Kch. Ts! don’t play innocent, Pinkie Pie! You are no better than she is!” Rarity said to Pinkie while pointing at Flutterhsy.

“And what is that supposed to mean?!” Pinkie angrily said to Rarity, who was unfazed by the remark and walked to me and twilight.

“I am happy to offer up my assistance as well.” Rarity said to Twilight before looking to Pinkie. “To someone who would appreciate what I have to offer”, Rarity said, and sure enough, the bickering started.

“HEY!” I yelled out, making everybody look to me. “This crap has gotta stop! You lot are just bickering like some old married couple!” I said with annoyance.

“He’s right. Listen to y'all carryin' on! Get over it and move on!” Applejack said in agreement.

“You mean like how you've gotten over what happened with Rainbow Dash?” Rarity asked Applejack, sounding like a smartass.

“She said she'd get the softball team to make an appearance at my bake sale. I tell everybody they're comin', and then not one of 'em shows up! She made a liar outta me! That's different!” Applejack said to Rarity.

“Is not”, both Rarity and Pinkie Pie said at once.

“Is too”, Applejack shot back.

“Now girls, let’s just calm down here”, Allister said to them, but his words met deaf ears as the arguing started again. It was at that point that I had enough. I dialed my Digitrix and transformed into Freakshow before changing my shape and size to scare the girls.

“ALRIGHT, THAT’S ENOUGH DAMMIT!” I roared, scaring the crap out of everybody present, including Twilight and Spike. “I don’t know what the hell happened to you guys! You were friends at one point, but now you are just going at each other like monkeys having a shit fight!” I said before reaching into Twilight’s backpack and pulled out the yearbook and flipped to the right page that had a picture of the five girls when they were younger. “Remember the old days?” I said, showing them the picture. And sure enough, any and all anger they had dissipated.

“Hmm, the Freshman Fair. Y'all remember?” Applejack said, the others nod in agreement.

“But something happened. I think that something was Sunset Shimmer.” Twilight said, I nodded in agreement.

“No doubt about it.” I said before changing back to human form.

“Well, it's a nice theory, darling, but Sunset Shimmer had nothing to do with it.” Rarity said with doubt.

“She's right. Sunset Shimmer isn't the one who ruined my silent auction for the animal shelter by bringing fireworks and noisemakers! It was supposed to be a serious event, and Pinkie Pie ruined it!” Fluttershy said to Pinkie with anger.

“What are you talking about? I got a text from you saying that you didn't want a silent auction. You wanted a big party!” Pinkie Pie said, showing the messages on her phone as proof. But Fluttershy was confused by that.

“Uh, I never sent you a text!” Fluttershy said, surprising Pinkie.

“You didn't?” Pinkie asked in confusion.

“You don't think she's the one who's been sending me those e-mails, do you? Every time I volunteer to help with the decorations at a school function, I get an e-mail from Pinkie Pie saying she has plenty of volunteers! And then I find out she's done everything herself.” Rarity said, confusing Pinkie even more.

“I never sent you any e-mails!” Pinkie said, the confusion on everyone rose even more.

As they continued to talk, I felt my phone buzz. I pulled it out and saw I had a text message from an unknown number. I know I wouldn’t take a call from an unknown number, but I tapped the screen and saw what the message said.

The message read, “Dustin. Meet me out in the courtyard. Sunset Shimmer”. This surprised me. How the absolute hell did she get me phone number. And what does she want with me.

“Maybe she's the reason Rainbow Dash didn't show up for my bake sale!” Applejack said in realization.

“Didn't you ever ask Rainbow Dash why she didn't show up?” Twilight asked Applejack, who just hid her face in her hat out of shame.

“Heh, I guess I kinda stopped talkin' to her at all after that.” Applejack said, feeling really bad now.

“Maybe now would be a good time to start.” Twilight said, placing her hat back on AJ’s ead.

“You guys go on ahead. I’ve got something to deal with.” I said, making the others look to me.

“Are you sure?” Fluttershy asked me.

“Don’t worry. I’ll catch up.” I said before walking off.

“Alright, but don’t be long, darling.” Rarity called out as I walked out of the room.

Sunset Shimmer’s POV

I was standing outside, waiting for Dustin to arrive. But luckily I didn’t wait too long as I saw him walk towards me.

“Well, look who finally showed up.” I said with a smirk.

“Cut the crap, Sunshit! Why am I here?” Dustin asked me, and I held off the urge to pound him for that name. I took a deep breath and calmed myself.

“Straight to the point huh, Alright”, I said as I circled around him. “I couldn’t help but find something “extraordinary” about you.” I said to Dustin, who raised an eyebrow.

“The hell are you talking about?” Dustin asked me in confusion, to which I just pulled out my phone and showed him the video of transforming into that lizard thing. Dustin was wide eyed at what he seen.

“Wait! You posted that video, didn’t you?” Dustin growled at me, to which I chuckled at me.

“Actually, Snips and Snails recorded the whole thing. So I can’t take all the credit.” I said before glancing at the watch he had. “And one thing I couldn’t help but notice about that lizard, is that I found something familiar on it. Look at its shoulder.” I said, pausing the video and pointing the symbol on the lizard’s shoulder, making him go wide eyed even more. “That symbol is the same one on that watch of yours. I knew that watch you had was weird, but I had no idea that it was capable of transforming you into such a monster.” I said, chuckling, knowing I had him in my grasp.

“True. But you do know people probably think that’s just visual effects. Ever heard of CG?” Dustin asked, but I chuckled.

“Oh, I know. But sooner or later, your dirty little secret will come out eventually.” I said, and Dustin seemed to realize something.

“Let me guess. This is the reason why you called me out here, isn’t it?” Dustin asked me, to which I just chuckled. I’ll admit he is pretty bright.

“Correct, and so I have a proposition for you.” I said to Dustin, who seemed hesitant.

“And what could you possibly offer me?” Dustin asked me with a cocked eyebrow.

“Join me!” Sunset said, making Dustin step back a little.

“Excuse me?” Dustin asked cautiously.

“You heard me! When I get my hands on the Element of Magic, I will be quite powerful. But with somebody with powers like yours, I, no we, could rule the entire world with an iron fist.” I said, placing a hand on his shoulder. “Just think about it. You, me, and the entire world bowing at our feet”, I said to Dustin, who was deep in thought.

“And should I refuse?” He asked me defiantly.

“Then I’ll see to it that you are taken down, and I’ll have that watch for myself.” I said to Dustin. “And if you still think you and Twilight can stand up to me, then I’ll be sure to put you both in your respective places.” I said, hoping I can convince him to join my cause. But sadly, Dustin removed my hand and looks to me defiantly.

“Then you might as well give it your best shot! If you think I’d ditch somebody in need to help some power tripping bitch, then you must be on some kind of drug.” Dustin said before walking off, making me angry at this.

“You just made your biggest mistake yet, Miller.” I said to Dustin angrily, making him stop in his tracks.

“Oh, and one more thing, I deleted that video you posted.” Dustin said, making me confused at first, but then shocked. I scrolled through my phone and noticed the video I made to make Twilight look like an idiot was gone.

“How?” I said in utter disbelief.

“I have my ways. And know this.” Dustin said as he turned to face me. “If you ever, and I mean ever, do something I cannot forgive, then I’ll be sure you regret the day you ever came into existence. And if I have to get violent, I sure as hell will not hesitate.” As Dustin said this, I felt a chill run down my spine. With that said, Dustin walked away, and I looked at him with sheer rage.

“So much for that plan, then I guess I have no choice but to get that watch by force.” I said with a growl, but then I felt as if somebody was right behind me. I turned to see a hooded figure standing right behind me. His hood completely obscured his face, so I couldn’t get a look at his face.

“Who are you?” I asked, holding my fists up in case he tried something.

“Relax my dear. I mean you no harm.” The man said, but I still kept my guard up. “I see you and I share a common enemy.” The man said, surprising me.

“You mean Dustin Miller? How do you know him?” I asked the man with confusion.

“Allow me to introduce myself first. I am Ginzo. And your name is Sunset Shimmer, yes?” The guy named Ginzo said to me, catching me off guard.

“H-how do you know my name!? You know what, screw it! I’m calling the cops!” I said, but before I could dial 911, my phone flew out of my hand and right into his. What I saw really shocked me beyond belief.

“Now, now, my dear, let’s not be so hasty.” Ginzo said while waving his finger. “If you like to settle down for a minute, I will gladly tell you all you need to know.” Ginzo said to me. I was hesitant at first, but I figured I might as well humor this creep.

“Ugh, fine! But don’t try anything funny, or you’ll be sorry.” I warned Ginzo, who just nods his head.

“Excellent. Now, where to begin”, Ginzo asked, and I gave him my full attention.

Dustin’s POV

I walked to the soccer field and noticed Twilight and Rainbow Dash playing soccer.

I looked to the others and sat down beside them.

“There you are, darling.” Rarity said to me.

“What was it you had to take care of?” Applejack asked me.

“Meh, nothing important”, I shrugged before looking to the field. “So, what’d I mess?” I asked.

“Twilight and Rainbow are squaring off in a game of soccer. And if Twilight wins, Rainbow will help us.” Fluttershy filled me in, but from what I was seeing; Twilight was not doing well on her end.

“Yeah, but it looks like Twilight’s about to get schooled.” I said Rainbow kicked the ball into the net. I looked to the score board that Pinkie was keeping track of, and Rainbow scored five, while twilight had a zero.

“That's game!” Rainbow cheered.

“Well, that sucks.” I said with a face palm.

“I... really thought you were gonna... pull it off there in the end!” Rarity said to twilight, nervously laughing.

“So what's the plan? How can I help you be princess instead of Sunset Shimmer?” Rainbow asked Twilight, confusing us.

“Huh?” I asked in confusion.

“But... I... lost!” Twilight stammered, just as confused.

“Of course you lost. I'm awesome! But I'm not gonna help just anybody try and beat Sunset Shimmer. The Fall Formal Princess should be someone with heart and determination. You've proved that you've got 'em both!” Rainbow Dash said as I nodded in agreement.

“Well said, sister.” I said, making her look to me.

“Hey, you must be that guy with the weird watch these guys have told me about.” Rainbow said to me, to which I shrugged.

“In the flesh”, I said with a smile.

Meanwhile

No POV

Snips and Snails were watching the events unfold, recording the whole scene. Sunset and Ginzo arrived and both boys showed them what they’ve caught, making Sunset smile evilly.

“While we’re snooping around, how about we test Miller’s capabilities”, Ginzo asked, making Sunset look to him.

With Dustin and friends

“HELP”, A girl’s voice cried out, catching their attention. They see a girl with raven black hair, cyan skin, had a red right eye and a blue left eye, dressed in a green shirt, blue shorts and brown boots.

“HELP”, she yelled as she ran, only to fall near me and the others.

“Easy! What’s going on?” I said to the girl, offering her a hand.

“Robots… chasing me”, the girl said, confusing everybody but me.

“Wait! Did they have green eyes and green lines on them?” I asked the girl, who nods frantically. Suddenly, the robots she talked about appeared by the masses. There were about fifteen at most, Only ten I recognized as Gladiators and pawns, five of each, but the remaining five were something different.

They were as big as a freaking building, had green energy shields held onto machete like weapons with a two-handed handle.

“Whoa! What in tarnation?” Applejack asked in shock.

“Dustin Miller! You have but one chance to surrender the Digitrix, or you and your comrades will suffer immediate termination!” One of the pawns declared to me, confusing the others present.

“Digi-what now”, Rainbow Dash asked in confusion.

“It means the watch.” I said before looking to the girls. “You guys get someplace safe. I’ll handle these junkyards.” I said to the girls, who seemed worried.

“What. No way are we letting you handle those things alone!” Twilight said, but I was not going to let them get hurt because of me.

“Don’t argue and just go. I‘ll be fine.” I said, and sure enough, they went to find a safe place to hide, leaving me with the robots.

“This is your final warning! Surrender the Digitrix or perish!” The Pawn said again, but I was not going to go by this scrapheap’s rules.

“I’ve got a better idea! How about your slag heaps stand there while I trash your metal butts!” I said before dialing the Digitrix and transforming into…

“INDESTRUCTILE!” I bellowed out and looked at the direction of the robots. “Okay, metal heads, come at me.”
“My word”, Rarity said with wide eyes.

“Did you just see that?” The girl asked in shock.

“Yeah, sorry but we never got your name.” Twilight asked the girl, who looked bashful.

“My name is Pixel Prada.” The girl named Pixel Prada said with a blush.

“I see Dustin’s facing some Pawns, Gladiators and Goliaths.” Allister said, shocking the girls.

“Gah! Seriously, is this going to be a regular thing with you?” Twilight asked Allister out of surprise.

“You’ve been warned! Fire at will”, The Pawn said as a barrage of energy blasts were fired at me, but thanks to Indestructile’s indestructibility, I suffered no damage as the blade just bounced off.

“Come on. Is that all you got?” I asked as one of the giant robots ran to me and swung it’s bladed weapon to slice me, only for it to do nothing.

“Wow! Talk about thick skinned!” Pinkie said in amazement.

“Alright, my turn”, I said as I used my barbed tail to impale the robot’s head, making it limp before disintegrating into green flakes. “Fatality”, I declared, chucking a bit at my reference.

“Resistance if futile”, The Pawn said as two more giant robots ran to me, but I smiled.

“Alright, take this!” I said rose to my hind legs, inhaled before spewing a green substance at the two robots, which they began to dissolve due the acidic fluid I spat at them.

“Eeeewww”, Pinkie said in disgust.
“Truly repulsive”, Rarity said as the two giant robots faded dissolved into green flakes like the previous one.

“En garde”, Dustin called out before lashing his tail as some of the Pawns, knocking them off their feet while also destroying some of the Gladiators. The two remaining Goliaths ran me as, to which I spewed another stream of green acid at them, dissolving them like the others did. I then ran to the remaining Pawns and Gladiators, deciding to end this.

“Body slam”, I roared before jumping up and landing on the remaining robots, crushing them with my weight. I then got up and saw the remaining evaporate into the familiar glowing green flakes, making e roar in victory before changing back to normal.

“Yeah, baby! And the crowd goes wild!” I said, imitating the sound of a roaring crowd. “Thank you, thank you, you’re too kind!”

“Wow. And they say I’m egotistic.” Rainbow said as the girls walk to me.

“I must say, that was a mighty fine show you put on.” Applejack said to me, patting my back.

“You got that right. Those metal meanies were like “resistance is futile” and you were like “come at me bro”, and you crushed them like an ant on the sidewalk.” Pinkie praised me in her usual hyperactive way. I then saw the girl named Pixel Prada walk to me.

“Thank you for saving me. I’m Pixel Prada.” Pixel said to me graciously, to which I bowed slightly.

“All in a day work, Madame.” I said, making Pixel, Twilight and Rarity giggle at that. Then my stomach began to growl. “Oh. Uh, well, all that action really worked up my appetite.” I chuckled bashfully.

“Luckily I know a place to get something to eat.” Pinkie Pie said.

“What even was that thing you turned into, anyway?” Rainbow Dash asked me.

“Whatever it was, it was unlike anything I’ve ever seen.” Rarity said to Rainbow.

“Tell you what; I’ll explain myself when we get there.” I said before looking to Pixel with a smile. “You’re more than welcome to join us if you like.” I said to Pixel, who blushed a bit.

“Oh…th-thank you, but I don’t want to be a burden.” Pixel said bashfully, but Pinkie patted her back.

“No need. You’re a new friend. Besides, you look like you could use somebody to talk too.” Pinkie said, before looking at her suspiciously. “Although, I’ve never seen you around here before”, Pinkie said to the girl.

“I just transferred here. Today is my first day.” Pixel said, to which Pinkie shrugged.

“I insist, Pixel. Besides, you look like you ain’t got a friend in the world.” I said to pixel, who seemed pretty down about that.

“Well, you aren’t wrong about that. The main reason I transferred here is because I was the odd one out at my old school.” Pixel said, making me feel sorry for her. And I knew the others felt the same way.

“Well, if anybody gives you any trouble, they’ll have to go through me first.” I said, catching Pixel by surprise. “So, are you coming with us?” I asked Pixel, who finally gave into my request.

“A-alright”, Pixel said with a blush, making me smile.

“Well alright then. Pinkie, lead the way.” I said as Pinkie led us to wherever she had in mind.

With Sunset and Ginzo

Sunset, Snips, Snail and Ginzo watched everything that had transpired.

“Seems to me that this boy is more of a challenge than expected”, Ginzo said with fascination in his tone.

“No joke.” Snails said in agreement.

“Well, we’ll see how tough he is once all the pieces fall into place.” Sunset chuckled evilly.

Freshening up

OST - Code Lyoko Theme Song (metal remix) by Red Mertah

With the gang all back together, me and the others were at a sweet shop that Pinkie suggested called Sugarcube Corner. Oh, believe me, I don’t have a big sweet tooth but there were so many sweets there that I could easily get a sugar induced coma after a single bite.

“And... can I get mine with extra oats?” Twilight said, confusing the woman behind the counter. She had blue skin, cerise eyes and cerise hair that resembled icing on a cupcake. Pinkie knows the woman as Mrs. Cake.

“Uh, one second thought, scratch that. However you normally make it is fine.” I said to the Mrs. Cake, who just makes a milkshake for Twilight while I got a chocolate doughnut. Twilight turns but then suddenly bumps into someone, spilling her milkshake. “Oh crap.” I said with eyes wide in worry. But me and Twilight notice the person she bumped into was none other than Flash.

“Uh…can you make another, please?” I said to Mrs. Cake, who nods and whips up another while I got some napkins for Flash.

“Oh! We've got to stop bumping into each other like this.” Flash said rather smoothly while I gave him the napkins. Flash went to pick up the spilt cup, but he and Twilight both touched hands, making them look at each other.

‘Awkward.’ I thought to myself as I witnessed the whole thing.

“You know me, always trying to make a big splash around here. ’Cause my drink kinda splashed... on the ground!” Twilight said, laughing nervously while I grabbed the shake for Twilight. “I'm gonna go over there now.” Twilight said as she walked to the others, and I looked to Flash.

“Sorry about that, dude. She’s a bit clumsy.” I said to Flash, who was cool about it.

“No problem, dude.” Flash said with a nod as I went to Twilight and the others. I notice a blush on Twilight’s face.

‘Yep, she’s enamored with the guy.’ I thought with a smirk.

“Don't even think about it! You're already trying to get her crown. Who knows what Sunset Shimmer would do if you ended up getting her ex-boyfriend too?” Rarity said in a rather warningly tone to Twilight, catching said girl off guard while shocking me.

“I'm not trying to. I don't even know... We just accidentally... Ex-boyfriend?” Twilight stuttered as I looked to Flash.

“He and bacon head used to date? No way.” I said with a bit of surprise.

“Flash Sentry broke up with her a few weeks ago. I can't believe she hasn't done something awful to him yet.” Fluttershy said to me as I looked to Fluttershy.

“Maybe she's just waiting until she has the power to do something really awful.” Twilight said as Flash walked by, looking back to twilight with a smile before walking off.

“Hey, you know what they say.” I said before doing an impression of an old English poet. “Hell hath no fury than a woman scorned.” I placed a hand over my head in a melodramatic manner, making the girls giggle at my gesture.

“Pffft, seriously?” Rainbow said while trying her best to stifle a laugh.

“All right, girls. Dance is tomorrow night, and we still don't know how we're gonna get Twilight the votes she needs to be named princess. Right now, folks only know the Twilight from the videos Sunset Shimmer posted online. We need to help 'em see her differently.” Applejack said, we all somewhat, but that was gonna be a tuff task. How we are even supposed to do it. Thankfully, Allister showed up, and from his expression, he seemed to have an idea.

“I believe I have a solution.” Allister said before he unzips a bag he had with him and pulls out what appears to be pony ears and pony tails. “Now this may be an absolutely preposterous idea, but what if you lot wore these as a sign of unity?” Allister said, and Rarity seemed to catch on his idea.

“Ah yes! Freshman year, they were very, very popular. A way for everybody to show their school spirit! You know? "Go, Canterlot Wondercolts!"” Rarity said, before clearing her throat. “Ahem. I haven't sold any in ages. I mean, the lots of us are obviously very different, but deep down, we're all Canterlot Wondercolts!” Rarity said, and I liked the idea one hundred percent.

“Yeah. I like it. Sunset Shimmer is the one who divided ya’ll, Twilight Sparkle is the one who united ya’ll. And we're gonna let everyone know it!” I said, looking to Twilight with a smile. “What do you think, princess?” I asked to Twilight, who smiled a heartfelt smile.

“And you guys have me to help out.” Pixel Prada said, making me look t her, my smile never leaving.

At CHS

At the cafeteria, many students were chatting amongst themselves. Then suddenly, Flash is strumming his guitar, Pinkie thuds a tray, Fluttershy thuds some glasses, and Rarity stomps while Applejack claps, making a good rhythm.

“And now, time for the plan to take effect.” I said as Spike pressed a button on the boombox I brought, playing the music.

OST - Equestria Girls (Cafeteria Song)

Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity: Hey, hey, everybody
We've got something to say
We may seem as different
As the night is from day
But you look a little deeper
And you will see
That I'm just like you
And you're just like me.
Yeah!

As the song progressed, me and Pixel joined in on the song.

Dustin and Pixel: Hey, hey, everybody
We're here to shout
That the magic of friendship
Is what it's all about
Yeah,

All seven: We thought we were different
As the night is from the day
Until Twilight Sparkle
Helped us see another way
So get up get down
If you're gonna come around
We can work together
Helping Twilight win the crown
So get up get down
'Cause it's gonna make a sound
If we work together
Helping Twilight Sparkle
Win the crown!

Pinkie Pie: Hey, hey hands up now,
We're sending a message
To the crowd

Dustin: Hands wave up
Then come down
We party together
All around

Rarity: Generous, honesty,

Applejack: Laughter, kindness, loyalty

Fluttershy: Twilight helped us each to see

Dustin and Pixel: So get up get down
'Cause it's gonna make a sound

Twilight Sparkle: I'm gonna be myself
No matter what I do
And if we're different yeah
I want you to be true to you
If you follow me
We'll put our differences aside
We'll stick together and
Start working on that school pride!

Dustin: “Come everybody! Altogether now.” I said to the crowd, making everybody join in.

All students: Jump up make a sound (Hey!)
Stomp your hooves turn around
Start now, make a change,
Gonna come around
Jump up make a sound (Hey!)
Stomp your hooves turn around
Canterlot Wondercolts

Jump up make a sound (Hey!)
Stomp your hooves turn around
Start now, make a change,
Gonna come around
Jump up make a sound (Hey!)
Stomp your hooves turn around
Canterlot...

Meanwhile

As the song continues, Sunset and Ginzo watched the scene before they turned to see Snips, Snails, and one of Ginzo’s Pawns wearing the ears and tail, jamming to the beat.

“Ahem!” Ginzo said, glaring at the three, making them remove the ears and tails.

Sunset Shimmer: “I have something I need you to do.” Sunset said to Snips and Snails.

Ginzo: “And you! What are you doing outside of your post?!” Ginzo said to the Pawn, making it yelp in fright before vanishing in a green flash. “I swear, good help is so difficult to find these days!”

Later

Everyone in school was wearing the Canterlot High ears and tails, meaning Allister’s plan had worked like a charm.

“Doesn't everyone look just fabulous?” Rarity said as Allister walked to us.

“It was a great idea, Allister!” Twilight said to Allister.

“Yeah. Thanks to you, Twilight will most definitely get the crown.” I said to Allister, who shrugged.

“I do what I can.” Allister said with a chuckle. We then notice Sunset, Snips and Snails walking by; all three had a smug grin on their faces.

“Don't know what she's smilin' about. Twilight's the one that's gonna be Princess of the Fall Formal.” Applejack said with a glare to Sunset, but Allister then walks off.

“Hey, Where ya going?” I asked to Allister, but he was too far away to hear me.

Meanwhile

Sunset Shimmer knocked onto the vice-principle’s door, making said woman come out of her office. Se had hair that was a ix of blue and lavender, pale blue skin and teal eyes.

“Vice Principal Luna, something terrible has happened!” Sunset said in a fake sad expression. They arrived at the gym, revealing it to be a total mess.

“Isn't this just awful? And after Pinkie Pie worked so hard to make things so perfect! Why would Twilight Sparkle do something like this?” Sunset said, still keeping up her innocent act.

“Why would you think Twilight was responsible for something like this?” Luna asked Sunset, who brought up a vanilla folder.

“Because I have proof. And she also had an accomplice, as well.” Sunset said to Luna, but little did she know that Flash and Allister were listening in.

In the Vice-Principal’s office

Me and twilight were in a dark office, and so dark that the only light visible was through the blinds. Me and Twilight were called here, and we were looking at photos that showed both Twilight and me doing horrendous things, that we both clearly did not do.

“But... But I don't understand!” Twilight said to the vice-principal.

“What gives? Clearly we’re being framed here!” I said to the vice-principal, but she didn’t seem to believe us.

“This is clearly you in the photographs, is it not?” Luna asked us, to which she did have a point.

“Yes, but...” Twilight said, but Luna cut her off.

“I think it should be fairly obvious that the school cannot let someone who would do something like this compete for the Fall Formal crown.” Luna said to Twilight before looking to me. “And you, Dustin Miller, for assisting in this act, I have no choice but to expel you from campus.” She said, shocking us both. But then as if god was answering my prayers, a knock came on at the door before both Flash Sentry and Allister entered and approached Luna’s desk.

“Vice Principal Luna, I found these in a trash can in the library. Thought you should see them. Someone obviously combined these photos to make it look like Twilight and Dustin were the one who trashed the gym.” Flash said as he and Allister both provided the evidence to Luna.

“Clearly, this was a massive frame.” Allister said, making me and Twilight both sigh in relief. Luna finally saw the truth.

“I appreciate you bringing these to my attention, gentlemen.” Luna said before looking to me and Twilight. “In light of this new evidence, you may of course continue your bid to be crowned the Princess of the Fall Formal. And Mr. Miller, you are of course pardoned from expulsion.” Luna said, making me sigh in relief. All four of us went to leave the office.

“Thank you! You have no idea how important this is to us!” Twilight thanked Flash while I did the same to Allister.

“Thanks, Al. You truly are a life saver.” I said to Allister, who shrugs with a smile until Luna walks in.

“I am afraid enough damage has been done to the gym that we will have to postpone the dance until tomorrow night. If you will excuse me, I need to let my sister know about this latest development.” Luna said before walking away, leaving the four of us alone.

“I’ll be heading back to my class. You three play nice, now.” Allister said before walking off as well, now it was just me, Twilight and Flash.

“So, uh, I was wondering. If you aren't already going with somebody, wanna go to the Fall Formal with me tomorrow night?” Flash said Twilight, to which I smiled teasingly.

“That would be...” Twilight said with a blush, but then her eyes widen for some reason. “Tomorrow night!? No, no-no-no-no-no, no no no no no! Nonononono! I can't! The portal! That'll be too late!” Twilight said before picking up her backpack and ran off, leaving me and Flash alone.

“One "no" would have been fine!” Flash said a bit sadly, but I pat his back.

“It’s just nervousness talking. She gets a bit nervous when it comes to dances. I’ll go talk to her.” I said before running off to find Twilight.

Later

I walked into a clothing store and saw Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash.

“Hey Rares, got your text. Where is she?” I asked Rarity.

“In there.” Rarity pointed to a purple curtain, to which I walked in to Find Twilight and Spike.

“Hey. What the hell was that earlier?” I asked Twilight, who just looks at me.

“I don't get my crown tonight; I won't be able to go back to Equestria for another thirty moons! Oh, what are we gonna do?” Twilight elaborated, and I got the point.

“Hmm. We tell them the truth. Let them know what's really at stake if you don't get the crown tonight. They'll help us figure somethin' out.” Spike said to Twilight, and I nodded in agreement.

“But what if they won't? What if when they find out how different I really am...?” Twilight said in despair.

“Twilight, these girls rallied around you 'cause they saw what was in your heart. They aren't gonna feel any differently about you when they find out you're a pony princess in Equestria.” Spike said, and I knelt and placed a hand on her shoulder.

“Yeah. I mean they saw me turn into Indestructile and Softwear earlier, and they never ran off in fear.” I said with a nod. “Plus, when I learned that you were a pony princess, I never thought of you as different.” I said as Twilight smiled warmly to me and hugged me.

“I'm glad you followed me here.” Twilight said to m before looking to Spike. “You too, Spike.” Twilight and I separated the hug and we walked out.

“You okay?” Applejack asked us.

“The Fall Formal isn't happening tonight.” Twilight said, surprising the others.

“WHAT!?” Pinkie asked out of shock.

“It had to be postponed because Sunset Shimmer had her two stooges wreck all of Pinkie Pie's decorations.” Dustin said, sneering at the thought.

“WHAT?!?” Pinkie asked yet again.

“But the Fall Formal has to happen tonight.” Twilight said.

“Wha–!” Pinkie was about to say a third time, but luckily Applejack stopped her.

“Thank you.” Dustin said to Applejack, who just nods.

“You see...” Twilight sighed before Pinkie explained for her.

“You're from an alternate world and you're a pony princess there and the crown actually has a magical element embedded in it that helps power up other magical elements, and without it, they don't work anymore, and you need them to help protect your magical world, and if you don't get the crown tonight, you'll be stuck in this world and you won't be able to get back for, like, a really, really long time!” Pinkie said rather fast with a squee, confusing Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, and rainbow Dash, but me, Twilight and Spike were absolutely shocked that she figured that out.

“How in the hell…” I said, too much in shock of how she knew that.

“Yeah, I'm pretty sure that isn't the reason.” Rainbow Dash said, not believing it.

“Nope, she's pretty much spot-on.” Spike spoke, startling the five girls.

“He can talk!?” Rarity asked in total shock.

“Oh, yeah! And back where I come from, I'm not even a dog! I'm a ferocious, fire-breathing dragon!” Spike said as he stood on his hind legs, sounding intimidating.

“This is so amazing! Tell me, what are you thinking right now?” Flutterhsy asked Spike, confusing him.

“Well, you guys seen me transform into Indestructile and Softwear, so how is the fact that Twilight is a pony princess from another world so shocking?” Dustin asked the five, who seemed to understand.

“How did you know all that?” Twilight asked the pink party girl.

“Just a hunch.” Pinkie said with a shrug.

“Just a hunch? That’ not “just a hunch,” that’s fucking spookily accurate!” I said, still in shock.

“Wait a minute! Lemme get this straight. You're a pony?” Applejack asked Twilight in confusion.

“You're a princess?” Rarity asked in amazement.

“You're from another world?” Fluttershy asked in intrigue. Twilight nervously replied with a nod.

“That... is... awesome!” Rarity said in amazement as the girls gathered around twilight, chattering in excitement. Spike and Dustin watched with a smile on their faces.

At the gym

We head to the gym to fix up the place, and to say it was a wreck would be an understatement.

“Jesus. Those two little shits really wrecked the place, didn’t they?” I said with a

“I simply cannot believe they did all this!” Rarity said.

“If I only had some kind of... party cannon that could decorate everything super fast!” Pinkie said in a bit of sadness.

“Oh, I would love to have one of those.” I said, thinking about all the cool parties I could make with party cannon.

“I know it seems impossible, but maybe if we all work together?” Twilight said, that could work.

“Well, there are like…seven of us, right? So, it should be no problem.” I said with a nod.

“Make that eight.” Pixel Prada said as she walked in.

“There you are. Where were ya?” I asked Pixel.

“Just had to take care of some personal business.” Pixel said with a shrug.

“Now that's the kinda can-do spirit I'm lookin' for in a Fall Formal Princess! Let's do it, y'all!” Applejack said, and we all started to spruce up the place.

OST - Time to Come Together

Twilight Sparkle: It's time for us to come together
It's the only way that things will get better

Dustin: It's time for us to take a stand
So come on and lend a helping hand

All: Fix it up
Yeah, it's all right
We'll get it ready by tonight

Yeah, help a friend
We'll come together in the end

Pinkie Pie, Dustin and Rainbow Dash: It's time to show that we've got school spirit
Raise your voice and let everyone hear it

Rarity, Applejack and Pixel Prada: It's time to show that we're strong
So come on, everybody, sing along

As the song continued, every student decided to lend a helping hand.

All: (Look...) Look how we've all come together
(Things...) Things are only just starting to get better
(Look...) Look how we've all come together
(Things...) Things are only gonna get better, better, better, better!
(We... will...) Fix it up, yeah, it's all right

(Come... together, together...) We'll come together, together now!

Once the song was over, the whole room was just like new again.

“This... looks... sooooo... GOOD!” Pinkie cheered in excitement.

“Got that right.” I said with a smile. Principal Celestia clapped to get everyone’s attention. Vice Principal Luna held a box for the votes.

“All right, everyone! Fall Formal is back on for this evening.” Principal Celestia said, everybody cheered I response. “So you'd better get out of here and start getting ready. Oh, and don't forget to cast your ballots for the Fall Formal Princess on your way out!” Principal Celestia said.

“You got my vote, Twilight.” One male student said as everyone went to fill in their votes.

“Alright, now we’re talking.” I said, high-fiving Twilight.

Meanwhile

Sunset Shimmer and Ginzo were hidden in a sports locker, displeased at what they were witnessing.

“You're lucky she was able to pull this off. Next time I ask you to make a mess of things, try to show a little restraint!” Sunset said to Snips and Snails. “I need this Formal to go on tonight just as much as she does.” Sunset smirked evilly.

“And once we have both the crown and the Digitrix, nothing will stand in our way.” Ginzo said as he peeked through the closet. “Enjoy this little lap of victory while you still can boy. For tonight, you and your petty friends are in for a real surprise.” Ginzo chuckled evilly, a pair of green eyes visible from his hood.

Grand Finale

OP - Code Lyoko Theme Song (metal remix) by Red Mertah

The Fall Formal is going to start in a few minutes, and I was in my room getting ready trying out my tuxedo I was gong to wear tonight. I sprayed some cologne, combed my hair and got a good look at myself in the mirror.

“Aw, yeah. Get ready CHS, cause here comes the king of the dance floor.” I said with a smirk, admiring my swag looks.

“Looking good.” Spike said behind me. Allister then walks in and sees me.

“Looking sharp there, kiddo. No doubt the ladies will be all over you.” Allister said in a teasing manner.

“Well if my looks don’t swoon them, then maybe my moves will.” I said as the doorbell rang.

“Oh. That must be the girls.” Allister said before leave g the room. I looked at myself in the mirror again, admiring my look.

“Man, I’m pretty.” I said, in a mock Jonny Bravo voice.

“Dustin, the girls are here. Come on down.” Allister called out. I took a deep breath and I began to walk downstairs. And needless to say, I was blown away.

“Yowza.” I said with a wolf whistle.

“Oh my. Dustin, you look stunning.” Rarity said with a star struck look.

“Yeah, no doubt the chicks will be drooling at your feet.” Rainbow Dash said with a thumbs up. But I then noticed somebody was missing.

“Hold up. Where’s Twilight?” I asked, but the girls looked at each other with a smile.

“Well, here she comes now.” Pinkie said with a giggle as they moved aside, and Twilight made herself known. And needless to say, I was absolutely stunned, so much so I couldn’t even speak, let alone move a muscle.

I can’t even begin to describe how amazing she looks. She was so flawless to look at she could even make even the most beautiful goddess known to man green in absolute jealousy. My eyes were wide as freaking dinner plates and my mouth was wide open out of pure shock and amazement.

“Wow. I didn’t know I was that easy on the eyes.” Twilight said, giggling at my reaction. Her giggling snapped me out of my stupor.

“Uh…right. We should be going.” I said while blushing beet red. Spike ran to Twilight and she picked him up.

“I’ll get the limo.” Allister said before grabbing the keys and walking out.

“So, Allister told us you’re a pro on the dance floor.” Applejack said to me, making me grin widely.

“You kidding? If there is one thing I’m known for at my old school, it’s cutting a rug.” I said with a hint of pride as we walked out.

Later

By the time we got to CHS, we walked out of the limo, and I notice Pixel Prada walking towards us. She was dressed in an aqua blue dress and had a blue corsage.

“Dustin. You look amazing.” Pixel said with a star stuck look.

“Thanks. So do you.” I said when suddenly a black car with a lightning bolt on the sides pulls up, and from it came Flash Sentry.

“Uh, Twilight! Look, I know you said "no" about going to the Fall Formal with me, but would you reconsider and at least have one dance?” Flash said to Twilight, who blushed a bit.

“I didn't say "no"! I mean, I did, but... I didn't mean no, to you. I was...” Twilight stammered, but I place a hand on her shoulder.

“What she’s trying to say is that she’d be honored.” I said for Twilight, saving her the embarrassment. With all that said and done, we made it inside, and sure enough, it was a real party. Strobe lights, music, refreshments, this was probably the most fun I’ve ever had.

“Yeah baby! Now it’s a real party.” I said in excitement.

“If you’ll excuse me, I have to use the ladies room real quick.” Pixel Prada said, and I shrugged.

“Alright.” I said before she walks off, and I walked off to enjoy the party.

“Yo, Dustin!” I hear Rainbow call to me. I look and there’s an empty spot, where she is with multiple students. “You said you’re a good dancer, right? Care to show us how good?” Rainbow asked, wanting to see my impressive skills. I just smirk and walk to the middle of the spot.

“Alright. Step aside and let the king of the dance floor show ya how it’s done.” As soon as I said that, I began to show off my incredible moves. To say the crowd was amazed would be the biggest understatement ever. People were truly astounded to see me dance, they were speechless.

“Whoa! You got moves dude!” Rainbow cheered, and many of the other students cheered as well. I was break dancing with such skill that even Michal Jackson would be proud of me.

“Anybody see Sunset Shimmer?” Twilight asked, looking to find her.

“Maybe she was too embarrassed to show! She's gotta know you won by a landslide!” Rainbow said with a shrug.

“Ah well, Sucks for bacon head!” I said while dancing. Suddenly the music ends, signaling the big event. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna were on stage.

“First off, I wanna say how wonderful everything looks tonight. You all did a magnificent job pulling things together after the unfortunate events of earlier. And now, without further ado, I'd like to announce the winner of this year's Fall Formal crown. The Princess of this year's Fall Formal is... Twilight Sparkle!” Principal Celestia said, making everybody cheer as Twilight approaches the stage.

“Congratulations, Twilight.” Principal said to Twilight, but then suddenly, we hear Spike call for help.

“Twilight! Help!” Spike called. I look to see Snip and Snail run off with Spike.

“Spike!” Twilight called me and Twi gave chase, and the girls followed us. However, once we made it outside, we saw Sunset shimmer with a sledgehammer, Snips and Snails holding Spike captive, and a man in a black hood. Sunset held her sledgehammer high and she was dangerously near the statue, which was also the portal to Twilight home world.

“That's close enough!” Sunset said as a she held her sledgehammer, threatening to destroy the portal.

“Twilight!” Spike called out in worry.

“Don't hurt him!” Twilight demanded.

“Oh, I wouldn't dream of it. I'm not a monster, Twilight.” Sunset said before looking to her goons. “Let him go.” And just like that, the two boys released Spike.

“But I on the other hand…” The hooded man said before snapping his fingers, causing two Pawns to appear and aim their guns at Spike, making him whimper.

“No!” Twilight called out, worried for her canine friend.

“Alright you fuck! Who are you?!” I asked to the hooded man in total rage, making him look towards me.

“My, my, my. Such vulgar choice of words. You certainly have Zeke’s temper.” The man said, shocking me beyond belief.

“How the hell do you…” But before I could finish, I began to piece things together. ”Hold up! You’re the bastard behind all of this, aren’t you?!” I asked the hooded man chuckled.

“Correct you are my boy. No doubt Allister has told you about me.” Ginzo said before pulling his hood down. He had messy dark brown hair, green eyes, but he also had what looks like a green and black mask with a green tube on either side, and there was also visible scar tissue from behind the mask.

“I am Ginzo. And surely, you’ve already met my associate, Sunset Shimmer.” The now named Ginzo said, making Sunset smirk at this. This Intel shocked us.

“You’re working for this fucker?!” I asked, totally in shock at what I just heard. And I’m definitely sure the others can agree.

“Got that right Miller. Ginzo here told me all about you and that watch.” Sunset said to me, before looking to Twilight. “And you, Twilight, you don't belong here. Give me the crown, and you can go back to Equestria tonight. Or keep it and never go home.” Sunset warned Twilight.

“And I’m giving you this one chance to surrender the Digitrix, or I have the little mutt put down!” Ginzo warned me as the two Pawns cocked their blasters, making Twilight gasp, I just growl towards Ginzo.

“Tick-tock, Twilight. We haven't got all night. The portal will be closing on its own in less than an hour.” Sunset said before looking towards me. “And Miller, I suggest you do what Ginzo says. Wouldn’t want anything happening to poor wittle Spike, would we?”

I growled, but not wanting anything to happen to Spike, I conceded. I scrolled through the display till I found what I was looking for. And with a beep and a click, the Digitrix fell off my wrist.

“Before I hand it over, let Spike go.” I said to Ginzo. He snapped his fingers again, causing the Pawns to lower their weapons and Spike ran to Twilight. I then tossed to Ginzo, to which he caught it with ease.

“So, Twilight, what's your answer?” Susnet asked, still holding her sledgehammer.

“No.” Twilight said, surprising both Sunset and Ginzo.

“What!? Equestria! Your friends! Lost to you forever! Don't you see what I'm about to do to the portal?!” Sunset asked in total shock.

“Yes, but I've also seen what you've been able to do here without magic. Equestria will find a way to survive without my Element of Harmony. This place might not, if I allow it to fall into your hands. So, go ahead. Destroy the portal. You are not getting this crown!” Twilight said, causing Sunset scowled at this.

“Fine, you win.” Sunset said, dropping the sledgehammer, but she then looks to Ginzo with a grin. “But we do have a backup plan.” Sunset said as Ginzo placed the Digitrix onto his wrist. But then suddenly, the Digitrix sparked with electricity, giving Ginzo a serious jolt. Then the Digitrix suddenly disappears from his wrist in a blue light and reappears on mine.

“What?!” Sunset asked, shocked by what she just witnessed.

“What sort of fuckery is this?!” Ginzo asked, his face red in rage. Then Allister appears, wearing his usual attire.

“Allister?” I asked in a mix of confusion and relief.

“You! What are you doing here?!” Ginzo asked, his rage further increasing.

“To answer your previous question, Ginzo, The Digitrix has a built-in fail safe. Something that me, Randy and Elena added just to be on the safe side. And that fails safe is that the Digitrix can only be worn by anyone who share’s Randy and Elena’s DNA. Sorry you made the trip for nothing.” Allister said with a smirk, but Ginzo was so mad he could literally see red.

“GGGRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!” Ginzo roared out in absolute fury. “Damn you, damn you, GOD DAMN YOU!” As Ginzo was having a meltdown, he went to pick up the fallen sledgehammer. “Fine! If I cannot have the Digitrix, THEN I’LL BE THE ONE TO DESTROY IT AND ITS USER!” Ginzo said, but not before looking to Twilight’s crown and chuckled. Next thing I know, he held out his hand, and surprisingly, the crown levitated from Twilight’s head.

“What the…” Rainbow asked in shock.

“You have got to kidding me! This ugly bastard has telekinesis?!” I asked, just as shocked as the others.

“You’re not the only one with surprises, boy.” Ginzo said before looking to Sunset. “All yours, my dear.” Ginzo said before the crown flew towards Sunset. She grinned madly, but then frowned when she noticed something wrong.

“Wait! Where’s the actual element itself?” Sunset asked in worry, making me chuckle. Ginzo and Sunset look to me.

“You mean this?” I said as I reached into my pocket and pulled out the purple gem shaped like a six-pointed star. This surprised Sunset and Ginzo further. “You see, when I saw a picture of that crown on the posters, I thought the whole thing had to be powerful. But then I noticed the gem. And when I noticed the shape was the same as Twilight’s symbol on her uniform, that’s when it clicked. Without the gem, the crowns just a fancy looking piece of scrap metal. So earlier today, before school let out, I used Freakshow to sneak into the principal's office and nab the gem.” I said with a chuckle, and both Sunset was now as angry as Ginzo was, if not more so.

“You BASTARD!” Sunset growled in fury.

“Get that gemstone!” Ginzo ordered his Pawns, the two ran towards me, but Allister thankfully blasted the two bots.

“Get him, you idiots!” Sunset said to Snips and Snails, making the two run towards me.

“Hot potato! Catch!” I said before tossing the gem to Rainbow Dash. She then tossed it to Fluttershy, then to Twilight.

As soon as Snips and Snails approached her, she noticed Pixel Prada.

“Twilight. Over here. I’m open.” Pixel said. Twilight tossed it to her, but surprisingly, Snips and Snails didn’t run to her.

“What's the matter you two, out of breath already?” I asked the two smugly, but then heard Ginzo chuckle.

“What’s so funny, ugly?” Rainbow asked as Ginzo walked towards Pixel.

“Pixel. Run!” I said to her, but she didn’t move, let alone make any eye contact with me. She just had a look of sadness and guilt for some reason. “Pixel?” I asked in confusion.

“Nice work my dear.” Ginzo said, shocking us all, except Sunset, Snips and Snails.

“Huh?” Pinkie asked, confused and shocked.

“I take it you’re a little confused. Allow me to explain. While you were getting the gang back together, I sent a specialized android to spy on you. And Pixel Prada here is that android.” Ginzo said as he pressed a button on the back of her neck, causing her midsection to open, revealing a network of wires, bolts and circuit boards. Twilight and the girls were shocked, but I was on my knees, absolutely devastated.

“I…I can’t believe this!” I said, feeling totally betrayed. Sunset and Ginzo chuckled at this.

“I’m sorry guys.” Pixel said, feeling absolutely guilty.

“Not so tough now, are ya Miller?” Sunset said with a smug grin on her face, reveling in my suffering.

“Oh, how I love to see the moment of betrayal.” Ginzo said before looking to Pixel. “Pixel, if you please?” Ginzo said, holding his hand out. But she was looking to me with guilt as I wept.

“That was an order, not a suggestion Pixel!” Sunset said, her patience wearing thing, but Pixel still didn’t move. Ginzo was losing his patience as well.

“Pixel, this is the last time I-GAH!” Ginzo hacked as Pixel punched him in his midsection with enough force to send him flaying back a few feet. This whole scene shocked everybody present.

“Dustin! Catch!” Pixel said as she tossed me the gemstone. Ginzo then rose from the ground, more upset than he already was.

“You better have a damn good explanation for this!” Ginzo growled at Pixel, but she stood her ground.

“I may not have known them for too long, but after spending some time with Dustin and his friends, I’ve never felt such companionship.” Pixel said before looking back to me and the others. “I understand you’re upset with me, and you have every right to be.”

“Uh, upset is putting it a little lightly.” Rainbow said, but AJ elbowed her.

“But after all the kindness you showed towards me, I’ve understood what friendship is like.” Pixel said before looking back to Ginzo, who was now infuriated.

“You traitorous pile of slag! THEN YOU’LL PERISH WITH YOUR NEWFOUND FRIENDS!” Ginzo said as he levitated the gemstone from my hands and into Sunset’s hand.

“At last! More power than I could ever imagine!” Sunset chuckled evilly as she placed the gem back in its place in the crown.

“NO!” I ran to Sunset to retrieve it, but then a Pawn appeared in front of me and punched me. As soon as Sunset placed the crown on her head, she was engulfed in an azure column of light, her body was taking a drastic change. We were all shocked at seeing this, even many of the students that walked outside were shocked at what they were seeing.

Once the transformation was complete, she was something else entirely. Moderate cyan with black sclera, her hair looked like a flame; her skin had gone from amber to a brilliant crimson. She now wore a black, red and yellow dress, and had black and red boots. On her back were two massive demon wings, and sprouting from her tailbone was a red and yellow tail that looked like that of a horse. In short, she was a she-devil.

“Oh…my…god.” I said in absolute shock as Sunset laughed evilly. She then fired a beam at both Snips and snails, transforming them into demonic versions of themselves.

Rainbow Dash, ready to fight put her fists up as she and the other girls backed slowly away from the menacing minions.

"Grrr…" Twilight growled back at Sunset. Cries and hollers shouted from the school entrance as the students raced back inside to try and avoid the frightening scene. Sunset, amused by their fear flew down right in front of the steps to the glass doors with Snips and Snails behind her.

"I have had to jump through so many hoops tonight, just to get my hands on this crown," she said, staring through the glass windows, "And it really should have been mine all along!" she stated, glaring down menacingly at the students.

"Don't even think about it bitch!" I shouted behind her. Sunset turned to see me as I glared to her.

"Oh, I actually forgot about you." Sunset as her hands began glowing in a strange aura, but I stood my ground against the demonic girl. "Do you think you can still defy me now?!" she asked angrily, making wind rush through my face.

“Do I? You tell me!” I said as I tapped pressed the button on the Digitrix and found the right transformation to use. I then tapped the screen, surrounding my body in the familiar ring of Bar Code, making an egg-shaped dome as my skin began to glow so his entire body was now a shining silhouette of white light. Two rectangular 'plates' seemed to appear out of nowhere and they surrounded my glowing form before squashing around me as if I were in a press mold.

I then transformed into humanoid nine-tailed fox with a yellow fur coat, red eyes, and my head, hands and legs were covered in red flame-patterned armor.

"FIREFOX!" Dustin roared in a voice that boomed of ferocity.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Firefox
Species: Vulpisapien
Fiery and fierce, this nine tailed badass is a walking, talking inferno. Made from data of the mythological Kitsune of Japanese folklore, Flamedramon from the Digimon franchise, and Ninetails from Pokémon franchise, Firefox is a combination of beauty and ferocity.

Everyone gasped at what they’ve witnessed.

“A Vulpisapien!” Ginzo said in shock.

“Such beauty.” Rarity said in amazement.

"Awesome!" Rainbow Dash shouted, "Show her whose boss Dustin!"

“Gladly!” I said as stared down at Sunset.

"Firefox? Not a very creative name," Sunset noted with a chuckle, "But I’ll admit, looks impressive. Not that it makes you look any better." Sunset said tauntingly.

"This coming from the bacon-haired girl that turned herself into a gargoyle. You could easily scare the crap out of a toilet." I quipped back, crossing my arms as the girls giggled at the clever remark while Sunset growled at me.

"THAT’S IT!" Sunset said before lunging at me, but Pixel got in front of me, her arm morphed into a blaster and fired a blast at Sunset, sending her back a few feet.

“Nice.” I said to Pixel, fist bumping her.

“Forgot about me already?” Ginzo said as he leapt in front of us before a bunch of Pawns and Gladiators appeared, Sunset flew back towards us and Snips and Snails joined in on the fray.

“Face it boy, you and your petty friends are outmatched.” Ginzo taunted me.

“Just do yourself a favor and give up while you still can.” Sunset said with a chuckle.

“Yeah, give up while you still can!” Snails said with a hiss.

“I think not.” Rainbow said as she swung the sledgehammer Sunset had earlier at one of the Pawns, smashing its head in before it dissipated into green flakes.

“Saddle up!” Applejack said, lassoing one of the Gladiators, swinging it around, toppling Ginzo and the other robots over. But while we were fighting Ginzo and his bots, Sunset flew towards the students, blasting them with some kind f mind control spell, their eyes glowed green as they moaned like zombies.

“Round them up and bring them to the portal.” Sunset said to the two before she looks to us.

"Spoiler alert," Sunset warned as flew to us, "I was bluffing when I said I wanted to destroy the portal. I don't want to rule this pathetic little high school!" she said with evil intent in her eyes, "I want Equestria. And with my own little teenage army, as well as Ginzo’s robotic foot soldiers, I'm going to get it!" Among the mind-controlled teens was Flash Sentry, making Twilight gasp and blush in fear and sadness.

“And not just Equestria, but also all of Cyberspace as well.” Sunset said, shocking me but confusing the girls.

"Like hell you fucking will!” I said defiantly. Twilight walked besides me, a look of defiance on her face as well.

"You're not." The wind then blew roughly onto her as Sunset flew over her head.

"Oh please!" she replied, "What exactly do you think you're going to do to stop me? I have magic, and you, have, NOTHING!" she screamed menacingly, lighting her hair as she glared sharply at Twilight.

"She has us!" Rainbow Dash stated as she and the other girls stood up with Twilight.

"And me," I said with a growl said.

“And me as well”. Pixel said, standing tall and proud with us. Twilight smiled with a newfound confidence, while Sunset just growled as the girls ran to Twilight and Dustin.

"Ahahaha!" she laughed, "Gee, the gang really is all back together again!" she said, wiping away a tear.

“The only way you’re going through that portal, is over my dead body!” I growled even more.

“I think I can make that arranged!” Ginzo said as he raised his hand high, causing a green portal to appear above him. And from it was something we did not expect. It resembled a massive mechanical dragon. Yes, you heard right, a freaking massive mechanical dragon.

“Uh…” Pinkie said in shock and fear

“I just had to say that, didn’t I?” I said in shock.

“A Wyvern! Ginzo, you wouldn’t!” Allister said to Ginzo, who just chuckled like a madman.

“Oh, I would! And I will! FIRE!” Ginzo declared as the dragon fired an intense green energy blast at us, and we braced ourselves for the worst. But after a few seconds, we open our eyes, and we see that we were shielded in a purple energy barrier.

“Huh?” I asked in confusion.

“Impossible!” Ginzo said in shock as the girls see that they were holding hands as they were around Twilight, smiling at each other in gratitude. Twilight smiled as she realized what was happening with the magical barrier.

"The magic contained in my element was able to unite with those that helped create it!" she stated as the crown released an aura upon us. The magical aura took its immediate effect as all the girls began growing larger ears, and ponytails. Twilight, Rainbow, and Fluttershy each sported a pair of wings that matched their respective skin colors.

OP - Legends Rise by Godsmack

Suddenly, the Digitrix symbol on my chest glowed a rainbow color before my body was encased in a multicolored aura. My helmet was now colored yellow, purple and white, my right gauntlet was colored white, pink and purple, my left gauntlet was colored blue, orange and yellow, my leg guards were colored blue, purple and yellow, and my foot guards were colored pink, red and orange. My eyes and the tips of my tails were encased in multicolored fire.

"Together with the crown they create a power beyond anything you could imagine," Twilight explained as Sunset struggled to keep control of the crown, "but it is a power you do not have the ability to control!" Twilight stated, "The crown may be upon your head Sunset Shimmer, but you cannot wield it, because you do not possess the most powerful magic of all: The magic of friendship!" she stated proudly as she and her friends joined hands, sending out a ray of light shaped like a rainbow down towards Sunset.

"Gah!" she screamed as the rainbow swirled around her, "What, is, happening?" she asked as the rainbow surrounded her completely.

"Here, and in Equestria, it is the only magic that can truly unite us all!" Twilight stated as the rainbow tornado suddenly shot out beams of rainbows, going through each of the teens, knocking them out of Sunset's mind control. The rainbows also swirled around the demonic pair of Snips and Snails as well. Ginzo was in shock that his plans were being foiled.

“NO!” Ginzo roared out in fear as I walked to him. “You are just as loathsome as your parents, boy!” Ginzo yelled in fury as he held his energy sword running towards.

“Let’s bring in the heat!” I said as I formed a rainbow nine-pointed star in front of me. The others saw this, and they were just as stunned.

“Whoa!” Rainbow said in amazement.

“Oh…my.” Fluttershy said with surprise.

“Oooh. Pretty!” Pinkie said in awe.

“Rin, pyo, to, sha, kai, jin, retsu, zai, zen.” I chanted while moving my arms like the arms of a clock, causing a rainbow fireball to appear on each point. Ginzo was too shocked to react to this. "Om!" And with a thrust of my arm in the star’s center, the fireballs became jets of rainbow fire shaped like a dragons head launched at Ginzo, who was too shocked to move.

Ginzo just stood there as the flames struck him and sure enough, they imploded on impact, sending out a bright light over the school, destroying the wyvern in the process. As the light vanished, Ginzo was sprawled onto the ground, panting heavily from the attack.

“How…is…this...possible!” Ginzo got out in between breathes. I was then changed back to normal and walked to ginzo, a smug grin on my face.

“I’d tell you, but I highly doubt you would understand.” I said, folding my arms in victory. Ginzo got up on one knee and glares at me with serious hatred.

“You...win this time. But next time we meet…I will snuff your ass out like a candle!” Ginzo said before vanishing in green light.

"I’ll be looking forward to it!" I muttered to myself before feeling a pair of arms wrap around me, holding me with the strength of a boa constrictor. I turned my head to see Pinkie hugging me with all her might.

"You. Are. So. AMAZING!" Pinkie screamed with a jump.

"Really, it was nothing Pinks," I said, struggling to breathe.

"Oh, but it ain't nuthin'!" Applejack said from the other side of me, "You really saved out there partner. Thanks!" she said, patting my back.

“Pinkie, dear, please release Dustin before you suffocate him.” Allister said, making Pinkie notice my face go blue before releasing me.

“Oopsie. Sorry Dustin.” Pinkie said as I caught my breath. I walk to the crater, and saw that Sunset was back to normal, and was sobbing her eyes out. In all honesty, despite everything she’s done, I couldn’t help but feel sorry for this girl.

“You will never rule in Equestria. Any power you may have had in this world is gone. Tonight, you've shown everyone who you really are. You've shown them what is in your heart.” Twilight said, and Sunset continued to sob.

“I-I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I didn't know there was another way.” Sunset said, crying her eyes out.

“The magic of friendship doesn't just exist in Equestria. It's everywhere. You can seek it out, or you can forever be alone. The choice is yours.” Twilight said

“But... But all I've ever done since being here is drive everyone apart. I don't know the first thing about friendship.” Sunset said, but I then knelt to the poor girl, placing a hand to her head.

“I can teach ya.” I said before looking to Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Pixel Prada. “No. We can teach ya.”

“Those are my girls! Woo-hoo!” Spike cheered, surprising everybody.

“Did that dog just talk? Whoa. Weird.” A male student said, a bit weirded out.

“Seriously? The talking dog is a weird thing about all this?” Spike questioned.

“He’s right.” I agreed with Spike as Rarity picked him up.

“I, for one, think you're adorable.” Rarity said, making Spike love struck and Twilight squeed at the sight.

Suddenly, a Pawn that was battered, yet still alive, got on its feet, its gun ready to fire.

“Hal-Hal-Halt!” The Pawn stuttered, surprising us all.

“What the…” A female student asked in shock.

“Talking dogs, and now robots? What next?” A male student asked.

“Oh great!” I said as the Pawn aimed its gun at me.

“Human…prepare-pare-pare yours-s-s-self for…” The Pawn stuttered again, it’s body sparkling with electricity, but luckily Pixel whacked it across the head with the sledgehammer before smashing its head to pieces. Making it vanish in green flakes that blew off into the wind.

“Thanks Pixel.” I said with a smile, and Pixel nods. Principal Celestia walked to Twilight, the crown in her hands.

“I believe this belongs to you.” Principal Celestia said, and Twilight knelt. “A true princess in any world leads not by forcing others to bow before her, but by inspiring others to stand with her. We have all seen that you are capable of just that. I hope you see it too, Princess Twilight.”

“I do.” Twilight said, and the crowd cheered. Flash then walks to her.

“Would now be a completely awkward time to ask you for that dance?” Flash Sentry offered with a hand towards her, she then giggled before excepting.

We all returned to the Fall Formal to have a little more fun before the portal closed. I see that Rainbow Dash was flying one of the girls I rescued. Twilight was dancing with Flash, and I even joined the dance, wowing the whole crowd.
Then when it was time to take a picture, Twilight, the girls, me and even Pixel Prada had joined in for a group picture.

It was now time for Twilight to head back to her home world, and we all shared one group hug. We then look to Sunset, Snips and Snails, who were busy repairing the damages.

“You'll look out for her, won't you?” Twilight asked us.

“You bet we will.” I said with a thumbs up.

“Although I do expect some sort of apology for last spring's debacle.” Rarity said, still a bit upset about the event.

“I have a feeling she'll be handing out a lot of apologies.” Twilight said, and I know that was true.

“We better get going.” Spike said to Twilight.

“I know we've only been friends for a short time, but I'm gonna miss all of you so much.” Twilight said before approaching me.” And Dustin Miller, you have my sincerest gratitude for helping me. I can’t thank you enough.” Twilight said this, and my eyes were watering as I hug Twilight, trying my best to hold back tears. Yeah, quite mushy I know.

“You take care of yourself, Twi.” I said as Twilight rubbed my back.

“That crown really does suit you, Princess Twilight.” Spike said as we both separated from the hug.

“You know what, Spike? I am starting to feel a little more comfortable wearing it.” Twilight said to Spike.

“And the wings?” Spike asked as both he and Twilight approached the portal.

“I've been walking on two legs and picking things up with these! Wings? I'm thrilled that's all I'll be dealing with back in Equestria!” Twilight said before she and Spike stepped through the portal. Pinkie then went to the portal, but she was met with a face full of wall.

“Oh, bummer!” Pinkie said in sadness.

“I’m certain we’ll see her again.” Pixel said, patting Pinkie’s back.

“Only time will tell, my dear.” Allister said, startling us.

“Jesus! You gotta stop that!” I said, breathing heavily.

“So, Twilight’s job is done, but what about you?” Rainbow Dash asked me, making me question that myself.

“Don’t know. But something tells me my adventure is just getting started.” I said with a shrug.

“You bet it is. But fret not my boy, for you have friends to assist you.” Allister said, making me look to the girls with a smile.

“Yeah, I sure do.” I said with a smile.

Short 1: Tug on my strings

Inside a music store, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy is seen walking in.

"Rainbow Dash," Rarity began to say as she went over to lean on the counter, "I simply don't understand why you can't just play the guitar you have…" Rainbow, carrying a guitar case, set it down on the counter, opening it to reveal that the neck of had snapped, and the strings were becoming undone, with one doing so after the case was opened. Rarity gasped. "Now I understand…"

“Hey. Ain’t that Dustin over there?” Applejack asked as they saw Dustin sitting on a stool, tuning a guitar and strumming the strings, trying to find the right notes.

“It is.” Rarity said with a smile. Dustin then began to strum the guitar’s and sang a song he had in mind.

OST - Brave Sir Robin by Monty Python

Dustin: Bravely bold Sir Robin
Rode forth from Camelot.
He was not afraid to die,
Oh brave Sir Robin.
He was not at all afraid
To be killed in nasty ways.
Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin.

“Is that a Monty Python song?” Rarity giggled at the song.

“I had no idea he could play an instrument, let a lone sing.” Fluttershy said in amazement.

Dustin: He was not in the least bit scared
To be mashed into a pulp.
Or to have his eyes gouged out,
And his elbows broken.
To have his kneecaps split
And his body burned away,
And his limbs all hacked and mangled
Brave Sir Robin.

As Dustin continued his tune, he was unaware that Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash approach him.

Dustin: His head smashed in
And his heart cut out
And his liver removed
And his bowls unplugged
And his nostrils raped
And his bottom burnt off
And his pe…

When Dustin noticed the four standing in front of him, and stopped his song, his eyes wide in surprise.

“Uh…how long have you ladies been standing there?” Dustin asked, the four giggled.

“Oh, not long enough.” Rarity said with a giggle. “Never took you for a fan of Monty Python.”

“Hey, they got some good material.” Dustin said with a shrug.

"So, what'ch y'all doin' here?" Applejack asked.

"Oh, nothing much. Just browsing, trying to find the guitar that suits me." Dustin said as she showed the girls not one, not two, not three, but four guitars.

"Why do you have four of them?" Rainbow asked, but Dustin had a grin.

“Ya wanna know?” Dustin asked the four, who just had confused looks. Dustin then turned on his Digitrix, swiped at the screen before finding the right transformation before looking back to the girls. "Check this out," Dustin said before tapping the screen, there for triggering the transformation. And what he turned into net really shocked the four beyond belief. The transformation resembled … a gorilla with eight muscular arms.

“PRIME-8!” Dustin roared out while banging on his chest with two of his arms, like any gorilla would.

(Transformation Index)

Name: Prime-8

Species: Octopithecus

Despite resembling an eight-armed gorilla, Prime-8 puts the saying "going ape shit" to a whole new level. With eight muscular arms at his disposal, Prime-8 is a beast you should stay clear of.

"Whoa!" Rainbow exclaimed at the sight of the creature, "That's awesome!"

“Is that an eight-armed gorilla?” Applejack asked with a furrowed eyebrow.

“Yep. Discovered this one yesterday. But if you think that’s cool,” Dustin said before using four of his arms to pick up the four guitars, then used his four remaining arms to pluck the strum them, creating a symphony of rock before stopping, and looking at the girls. They each were amazed and shocked at the display.

“My word,” Rarity said as Dustin put the guitars down and changed back to normal.

“Awesome!” Rainbow Dash said with wonder.

“Cool right? So, what bring ya’ll here?" Dustin asked. Rainbow then pointed back to her beat up guitar, still in its case.

"Whoa …" Dustin said as he took a look, whistling as he did. “Ol’ faithful’s at the end of the line, eh? Well, there’s plenty of options to choose from…" Dustin said, looking around, seeing all types of guitars and other instruments hanging up in the store.

"How about this one?" Pinkie said, holding a purple, black dotted guitar.

“Ooh. Looks classy. Reminds me of Josie and the Pussycats.” Dustin said with a bit of nostalgia.

"No," Rainbow replied.

"Lookie here!" Pinkie called out, holding up a banjo.

No," Rainbow replied again.

"Super groovy!" Pinkie exclaimed, holding a tuba.

"No, Pinkie," Rainbow replied yet again with a shake of her head and hand.

“That’s not even a stringed instrument.” Dustin said with a deadpan look.

"Well, what'cha lookin' for?" Applejack asked.

"That's the problem!" Rainbow said with her hands in the air,

"I need something that looks as awesome as I'm gonna make it sounds!" she said.

“Like this?” Dustin said, standing next to a double-necked, red guitar, decorated with yellow lightning bolts and stars on the body.

Rainbow was practically in love with the instrument, if her expression was of any indication. She smiled, figuring it would be all hers once she got her hands on one of the necks, but at the same time, another hand grabbed the other neck. Rainbow turned to see that a girl with bright white hair, a blue sweatshirt, a purple skirt with stars sewn on it, blue high heel boots, and a star-shaped hairpin. This was none other than Trixie.

"Hands off my guitar Trixie!" Rainbow shouted.

"I touched it first Rainbow Dash!" Trixie shouted back.

"Sounds to me like this is a makin' for a nice, friendly competition," Applejack noted as the girls stopped bickering.

“Yeah, sure is,” Dustin said with a sigh, knowing where this is going to head.

"All right!" Rainbow said, "Let's see who plays best!"

"A shred off?" Trixie asked as she stared Rainbow down.

"Shred on!" Rainbow replied with a sharp glare. From almost out of nowhere, Pinkie Pie handed Rainbow Dash a light blue a white guitar, which she then began to rock out on, riffing on it sharply. Meanwhile, Trixie was doing the same as she had grabbed an orange and white guitar, riffing on it about as well as Rainbow was. The two glared each other as they continued to move their fingers across their guitar necks, using their picks precisely to create powerful riffs. Trixie and Rainbow exchanged strong blows to each with each of their riffs. It looked as if Trixie gained the upper hand with a strong riff of her own, then suddenly, Rainbow began to play faster and faster, creating an electrical aura around her as her ears grew. She began levitating in the air, sporting a pair of blue wings, and a long ponytail as she continued to riff on her guitar ever so skillfully, as it also changed, becoming a much darker blue with the neck turning red with yellow lightning bolts spaced evenly upon it. With one final strong riff, Rainbow zoomed down, creating a sonic boom that had the colors of rainbow once she landed, blowing Trixie away. The smoke around the store cleared to show Rainbow Dash in the center of her friends, who clapped and applauded her victory after being quite surprised.

"No way…" Dustin said with his mouth wide open. While he stared in shock, he didn’t notice the Digitrix act strange. Trixie also was fairly surprised, as she rolled a drum out of her way to see Rainbow Dash with her wings.

"Check me out!" Rainbow exclaimed as she saw herself again.

She then reached for the guitar, but then stopped, looking back at the one she used to beat Trixie for it. It was very shiny after it had changed, with a strong body and stable neck. "Uh… She can have it," she admitted, gesturing to Trixie, "Turns out this is the one that really speaks to me!" she said, hugging the guitar.

Trixie was surprised, but smiled menacingly as she believed that she was the one who truly triumphed.

"The great, and powerful TRRRIXIE always wins in the end!" she stated loudly, grabbing the guitar from Vinyl as she walked by to put it back, laughing proudly as she held it in the air.

"I doubt it," Rainbow said bluntly as she and her friends walked by, making Trixie stop laughing and raise an eyebrow. Rainbow then went over to the counter, handing Vinyl the money for the guitar.

“Might want to check the price tag, champ.”
She and her friends then walked out, with Dustin carrying his guitar in their cases as they all exited. Trixie then looked at the back of the double-necked guitar, looking at the price tag to reveal a very expensive instrument at 12,000 dollars.

"Twelve thousand dollars?!" she exclaimed in disappointment, anger building up in her eyes, "You'll pay for this Rainbow Dash!"

"No, silly!" Pinkie said, appearing at the doorway, "If you want it, you'll have to pay for it!" she said with a wink.

As they walked, the Digitrix beeped, getting everybody’s attention.

“Huh?” Dustin asked as he looked at the Digitrix.

“New Transformation added to playlist.” The Digitrix said before the screen showed them an image of the new transformation. It resembled cyan colored woman with rainbow hair, in blue armor and a cerise tinted visor. It looked almost like Rainbow Dash in a way.

“Whoa!” Applejack said.

“Hey! That looks like me! But more awesome!” Rainbow said more amazed then shocked. But I was more shocked over the fact that this transformation was female.

“I’ll talk to Allister about this later.” I said before we continued walking.

Author's Note

So, that's short one done.
Not only did Rainbow Dash get her ears and wings back, but Dustin also got a new transformation that looks like her.

Release the Hamsters!

A creak was heard as the glass door opened to the building, which was still in the dark. With a quick flick of a switch by the door, the room lit up immediately.

"Thanks for coming Rarity," Fluttershy said as she set her backpack down on the reception desk, as did Rarity, "The rescue center needs all the help it can get."

"Oh, but of course darling!" Rarity said as she kneeled over to pet a puppy, "Helping cute little puppies and kitties will never go out of style!" she said as she nuzzled her face with the kitten's, making her purr.

"Oh, and thank you too Dustin," Fluttershy said as Dustin walked in, "I'm really glad that you could be here."

"No worries Flutters!" Dustin replied as he picked up a puppy and hugged it while it licked his cheek, "Besides, I’m just as much of an animal lover as you are."

"Oh, that's right!" Fluttershy realized, walking over to the door to a small room encased by glass. "Once a year, a lucky volunteer gets to clean the hamster habitat!" she explained excitedly, opening the door to the room, "I signed up for it months ago to be sure I'd get it!" she added, opening the tube to the habitat, which was covered in grime and filth from top to bottom, "House cleaning!" she echoed through the tubes.

“Aww! Hamsters!” Dustin said with a squee, while Rarity looked quite nervous.

"Ooh…" she said nervously, "Uh, Fluttershy darling, aren't hamsters… Um… rodents?" she asked as the hamsters began moving towards the habitat's exit through the tubes.

"They sure are!" Fluttershy replied as she opened the exit for them, "But they're cute and cuddly like bunnies!" she said as they all began to move out. "Okay every hamster, follow Dustin and Rarity into the next room," she explained, "She'll take good care of you while I give your home a nice scrub!" All the hamsters went outside of the habitat room with Rarity, who had a disgusted look on her face, along with being nervous as they surrounded her.

"Boy, that sure looks like a load of work," Dustin noted as he looked back at the dirty complex the hamsters had been living in. “Are you sure you can do all o that by yourself?”

“Don’t worry. I can manage.” Fluttershy said as she continued to clean the habitat.

“Well, I’m gonna help out.” Dustin declared before he was engulfed in a flash of blue light. And moments later, Fluttershy was surprised as seeing him take on a new form that resembled a humanoid blue fish.

(Transformation Index)

Name: Riptide

Species: Aquarian Piscus

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water, this aquatic creature will make you avoid water at all costs. With a strong bite, a Prehensile tail, fins on his arms that can tear through metal like a hot knife on butter, the ability to control water, and being able to survive both on land and underwater, this fishy ass kicker can easily ruin your trip to the beach.

"Oh my!" Rarity exclaimed.

“If you don’t mind me asking, how is this one going to help?” Fluttershy asked, but Dustin smiled.

“You’ll see.” Rip Tide said before running off into a room, and after a minute, came back in with a bucket of water. He then held out an arm, manipulating the water into a tendril.

“Egad.” Rarity said in amazement.

“That’s right. Riptide can control water.” Dustin with a grin.

“How do you know that?” Fluttershy asked.

“Well, Allister said that each time I transform, the Digitrix uploads the basic instincts into my mind.”

“But as a…uh…humanoid fish, won’t you need water to survive?” Rairty asked with a raised eyebrow.

“Not really. You see, Riptide’s species, Aquarian Piscus, can survive both on land and underwater. They have both lungs and gills. When on land, my gills stop and my lungs kick in. But when submerged underwater, my lungs deactivate and my gills kick in.” Dustin elaborated; this intel further surprised the two. “But enough chatter, let’s get to work.” Dustin replied happily with a smile.

Later

Time passed as both Fluttershy and Dustin, still as Riptide, vigorously worked on cleaning the tubes. Fluttershy finished her area of cleaning, and looked up to see that Dustin had done the same upon the tubes that were out of her reach. He then manipulated the last bit off water back into the bucket before turning back to normal.

“Alright. Now that is a job well done, wouldn’t ya say?” Dustin said as he and Fluttershy high-fived.

Just then, both of them heard a loud banging noise from outside the room. They turned to see Rarity, banging on the glass window with a stressed look on her face. She then backed away as objects were being flung at her.

"Rarity!" Fluttershy exclaimed as she opened the door, "What happened?!" She saw that all the hamsters had gone on a riot outside their home, running around, hitting each other, and messing with the other animals of the center during the house cleaning.

"Ooh, ah!" Rarity said she tried to avoid any further conflict, "Well, Carl Pettington's coat just begged to be accessorized," she began to explain, holding up a hamster wearing a coat and tie,

“Hold up! You’re saying you were dolling them up?” Dustin asked with a raised eyebrow. Rarity cast a glare at him, making Dustin look away in fear

"Anyway, but Amelia Furhart refused to be left out," she continued, holding up another hamster wearing a blonde wig and dress, "and got Curtis Pawpower to chew right through Carl's little scarf," she continued as a larger hamster put on a red scarf, "and before I knew it, I had a habitat wide feud on my hands!" she summed up. "Also, I named them," she added bluntly.

"What the hell are we gonna do?!" he asked as the rioting continued, with each and every hamster rioting.

"Ladies and gentlehamsters, please!" Fluttershy called out, ceasing the feuding of the rodents as they all listened. "Now, I know you're all upset," Fluttershy said out of understanding, "but why don't we all head back into the habitat and talk it over?" she asked kindly as Rarity walked over with Carl and Amelia in her hands. Carl tried to help the reconciliation by giving Amelia a kiss, but she then tore off his coat, and suddenly, the feud started up once again. Both girls gasped at the sight.

“Oh boy.” Dustin said with wide eyes. Dustin then went to dial up his Digitrix, but sadly it was on recharge mode.

“Dustin, right now would be a good idea to transform!” Rarity said to Dustin.

“I would if the damn thing would be done recharging!” Dustin said with a groan.

The girls took quick action with Rarity going over to her backpack and emptying it of her makeup contents. She then chased Curtis and some other hamsters, until she ended up snatching him in her bag. Fluttershy was also about to do the same as she emptied her bag of its contents, but then a tambourine from her bag bounced out, jingling as it rolled off the counter, and onto the floor. The hamsters seemed to be hypnotized by the melody of that the tambourine had played before it stopped.

“Huh?” Dustin said before looking to the tambourine. “That thing must have put the hamsters in a trance.”

Fluttershy then picked it up, shaking it around, and banging it against herself as all the hamsters were drawn to the melody. Rarity, and Dustin also enjoyed it as they danced around to the beat a little. She then threw the tambourine up in the air, catching it as it fell, as a sudden aura enveloped her, making her ears grow, creating wings on her back, and growing her ponytail down to her boots as she continued to play. All the hamsters then went back into the habitat room, allowing Fluttershy to close the door.

"Huh," Rarity said, "I never would've guessed hamsters could be so touchy about fashion!" she said, getting confused looks from Dustin and Fluttershy.

“Well, next time, never do that again.” Dustin said when suddenly, his Digitrix beeped.

“New Transformation added to Playlist.”

“Another one? That’s twice in one week.” Dustin said as he looked at the Digitrix’s screen, showing the image of a woman that resembled Fluttershy, dressed in yellow and green armor, and a pair of pink butterfly wings.

“That’s the second time this happened.” Dustin said with a raised eyebrow.

“First with Rainbow Dash and now with Fluttershy?” Rarity asked with confusion, but Dustin then seemed to have a theory.

“I think I have a theory,” Dustin said, getting Fluttershy and Rarity’s attention. “I think that every time one of you guys Pony up, you guys emit something that effects the Digitrix, which then results in the transformations. But that’s just a theory.” Dustin said, and Fluttershy and Rarity seemed to find it plausible.

“That is a good theory.” Rarity said as the three proceeded to walk out the room, Curtis, who was still in Rarity's backpack, peeked out, giving a few snaps of his fingers, while still unnoticed.

Author's Note

Yet another transformation that resembles the one of the humane seven.

Basically, whenever one if the girls access their magic, the Digitrix analyzes their magic, the data then becomes the Binary DNA for these transformations.

Little Drummer Pinkie

"Just remember," Granny Smith said to Pinkie Pie, holding a bowl of cookie batter in one arm, and a wooden spoon in the other, "the most important thing about sugar butter cocoa cookies is to fold you batter," she explained, handing the bowl and spoon off to Pinkie, "Too much arm turning'll make your cookies tougher than a lump of coal!" she added with a wink. She then headed over to the other side of the kitchen, while Pinkie began to stir the batter as instructed.

"Come on Pinkie," Rainbow Dash said as she entered the kitchen, "You're supposed to help me find a drummer for my band."

"I guess I could fold a little faster…" Pinkie said as some batter spilled. She then realized something and raced over to the cabinets, pulling out and flinging objects as she was looking.

"Most people don't know how hard it is to find someone who could use both hands the way a drummer does," Rainbow noted as Pinkie now had two bowls of batter, and was stirring them quickly with two wooden spoons.

"I'll bet!" she replied as both bowls were flung into the air, batter spilling everywhere. After hearing a loud crash, Granny Smith turned and gasped to see Pinkie and Rainbow covered in batter, with the bowls each upon their heads. Pinkie just smiled sheepishly while Rainbow glared and growled at her.

“Yo ladies, what’s-" Dustin immediately stopped talking as he entered the room to see Pinkie and Rainbow covered in batter. "Uh, is now a bad time?" Dustin asked, scratching his head. Rainbow only gave Dustin a deadpan look, allowing him to understand the situation. "I’ll take that as a yes." he said with an embarrassed look and trickles of sweat.

Later

A while later, the three of them were outside on the soccer field, all over a giant blank banner with green and purple paint buckets.

"Now, it's important that our banner look awesome!" Rainbow explained, "So feel free to use as much glitter as you want." As she began to set down some paint on the banner, Pinkie looked behind her, her eyes widening as she found something. "A drummer just can't be anybody," Rainbow added as she continued to paint, with Dustin also joining in. Pinkie then appeared with a big glitter jar in her hands.

"Oh, of course not!" Pinkie agreed. She then began to beat down on the bottom of the glitter jar, creating a beat as glitter fell on the banner.

"They need to have the right instincts, you know?" Rainbow noted as glitter began to move towards her.

"Totally!" Pinkie said as she began to drum on the jar between her legs, sending out a huge burst of glitter that covered the banner. Rainbow coughed as she was covered in it as well from head to toe, glaring at Pinkie while she just smiled with her hands on her face, and her elbows on the empty jar.

"Oh!" Dustin exclaimed as he saw Rainbow all covered in glitter.

"Don't worry, I got ya covered," he said, turning on the Digitrix and tapping the Digitrix screen after finding the right transformation. In a flash of blue light, he transformed into a humanoid insect.

“SONICADA!” Dustin exclaimed in a high-pitched, scratchy voice.

(Transformation Index)

Name: Sonicada

Species: Cicadoidean

Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's Sonicada. This humanoid bug's claim to fame is his ability to emit sounds to ultrasonic frequencies capable of overloading machinery, shattering steel and stopping projectiles in mid-flight.

"Whoa!" Pinkie said in amazement.

“You might wanna hold onto something. This could get messy." Dustin said, confusing Rainbow Dash and Pinkie.

"Messy?" Rainbow asked, "What do you mean by-?!" she stopped her question as she saw Dustin take off into the air. He then began to flap his wings with insane speed, creating a huge gust of wind, blowing all the glitter away from the banner. Rainbow opened her eyes as the wind ceased, seeing that all the glitter was off her body. "Wow!" she exclaimed, "You've got all kinds of tricks in that watch, huh?" she complimented, but then noticed that Dustin had come back on the ground, changing back to normal.

Later

They were all in the cafeteria for lunch, with Applejack and Rarity at the table as well.

"It's gotta be someone with a lot of… energy," Rainbow explained with a disappointed look as Pinkie was squeezing out some strawberry flavoring into her drink.

"Absolutely!" she exclaimed in agreement as she stirred the flavoring in her drink with a spoon. As she finished, she then began using her spoon to tap against the glass to make some beats, and then she grabbed a fork and did the same with her salad bowl.

"Uh, Pinks?" Dustin tried to ask as he was eating a burger, but Pinkie was still tapping loudly.

"I mean, a lot!" Rainbow said, "Energy, enthusiasm…" she noted as Pinkie began going crazy, going so far as to beat on the table, causing her other friends to spill their drinks and drop their food.

"Pinkie!" Applejack shouted as she jumped on the table, grabbing her fork and spoon while they were still in her hands.

"Whaaaaat?!" she said in a whiny voice. She and Applejack stared each other down for a moment, but that soon ceased as Pinkie went back to beating on the table.

"Hey, wait a second…" Dustin said in realization, " Yo RD, what if Pinkie could be the drummer you’ve been looking for?" Dustin asked Rainbow Dash.

“Now that ya mention it, he’s got a point. Who else is more energetic than Pinkie?” Applejack asked in agreement, and Rainbow smiled widely at Dustin’s idea.

Later

The gang, including Allister, was in the band room, observing Pinkie playing a wild solo performance on the drums, crashing cymbals, beating down wildly on the drums. As she continued, a magical aura embedded her, growing her ears and creating a ponytail puffy as her own hair. The girls all gasped in excitement while the boys all continued to watch as Pinkie laid down the final beats with a spin, and then a crash of the cymbals. She breathed heavily with her tongue hanging out as she had finally let out her energy.

"Whatever made you think of Pinkie for the drums?" Rarity asked Dustin.

“Just a thought.” Dustin shrugged while Pinkie just performed a quick rim shot on the drums with a wide smile.

“New transformation added to playlist.” The Digtitrix said with a beep.

“Again?” Dustin asked as he examined the Digitrix screen, which displayed the image of the new transformation.

“Wow. That is kinda like Pinkie.” Applejack said while looking to Pinkie, who was still drumming.

“I’ll never understand how this thing does that.” Dustin said with a confused look.

Rarity’s 5th Symphony

As the sun shone down on the Canterlot High school grounds, Rarity was having no fun as she struggled to push a grand piano across the sidewalk, which had skid marks left all over from it. Rarity panted and grunted as she continued to shove the piano slowly towards the building. Her hair was all messy, and she was sweating madly as she continued to push.

"Come on Rarity!" she said to herself, stopping her effort for a moment, "You simply must get this piano to band practice!" She then went back to shoving, merely to find that she could only move the piano so far, only inches at a time. "What kind of person doesn't put a piano on wheels?!" she asked herself, falling down after she continued to struggle, "Oh… Just look at me," she moaned, dusting herself off, "I'm a mess…" She then began to look around, hoping to find some way to get the piano in the school, "What I need is bit more muscle!" she realized, noticing three large, dark gray-skinned boys just outside the school, digging around in the grass, apparently collecting colored rocks.

"Oh boys!" Rarity called out. The boys looked up from their digging to see Rarity fixing her hair as she leaned on the piano, giving off an alluring presence. They smiled widely, with the pupils in their eyes shining like diamonds.

"I simply cannot thank you enough," Rarity said as the boys: Rover, Fido, and Spot were carrying her upon the grand piano through the school hallways, struggling with its weight. "And while I am a bit repulsed by your musky smell," she began, "I can appreciate that you're all diamonds in the rough," she complimented, making the boys smile. They suddenly halted as a huge crowd of students lay in front of them, untimely gathered. The boys didn't care as they all charged through with Rarity on the piano, bashing, shoving, and hitting students out of the way. "Excuse me! Pardon me! Excuse me! Thank you!" Rarity said apologetically as students were sent flying while the boys kept on charging through.

Meanwhile

Dustin, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy were all in the band room.

"Ugh!" Rainbow moaned, turning around, "Where is Rarity?!" she asked in frustration.

“I’m sure she’s on her way, just be patient.” Dustin said to Rainbow Dash.

"That gal probably wants to make some sort of grand entrance…" Applejack replied with her elbows upon her bass guitar.

"Well… wanna see something cool?” Dustin asked the girls.

“Better than nothing I guess.” Rainbow shrugged as Dustin began to dial up his Digitrix before turning into what looks like a cybernetic Albert Einstein.

“EINSTRIKE!” Dustin shouted in a cybernetic voice, complete with a German accent.

(Transformation Index)

Name: Einstrike

Species: Cerebroid

Bio: With an insanely high IQ and the ability to generate electrical bolts measuring up to 15,000 volts, face against Einstrike and you’re in for a shock, both literally and metaphorically. His IQ is measured up to 10^30, Einstrike can solve very difficult calculations mentally in roughly seconds and knows and can visualize equations and movement of objects as if they're actually there. He can even determine mechanical values and physical properties by simply looking at them.

“Wowee!” Pinkie said in amazement.

“What can this guy do?” Rainbow asked, but Dustin then brought out his MP3 player and a cord before plugging it into the device, then attached the other end to an outlet on his midsection. As soon as he his play, the Tesla coils on his back began to produce musical tones by modulating their spark output. And the song he chose to play was Megalovania from Undertale

When the girls saw this, they were amazed by what they were seeing.

“Singing Tesla coils. Quite a “shocking” revelation, eh.” Dustin said, chuckling at his own pun, but the others, aside from Pinkie, groaned at that.

“Shocking? Really?” Rainbow asked with a deadpan look.

“Aw, come on. That’s my best material!” Dustin said as he paused the MP3 player before unplugging it, turning it off and changing back to normal.

"So, ya’ll got a band yet?.” Applejack asked Dustin.

“Well, so far, I got Allister and Sunset joining up.” Dustin said, shocking the girls.

“Wait. Why is Allister joining your band?” Rainbow asked.

“Oh trust me. He plays a mean set of drums. And as for Sunset, don’t get me started on her riffing skills.” Dustin said with a grin.

“Well, I’m actually glad you and Sunset have started getting along.” Fluttershy said with a sweet sile.

“Yeah, despite all she’s done, she clearly doesn’t deserve all the hate she’s getting.” Dustin said feeling sorry for Sunset.

“Ugh dude? Have you forgotten she sided with a mad scientist, turned into a she devil, and nearly tried to kill us?” Rainbow asked, but got elbowed in the side by Applejack.

“Yes, I haven’t forgotten about that, but she was in a dark place.” Dustin said defending Sunset.

Suddenly the doors to the room burst open, with Rarity upon the piano as Rover, Spot, and Fido had shoved it in.

"TA-DAAAAAHH!" she exclaimed with her arms outstretched, and with a big smile.

"Told ya," Applejack stated bluntly.

"Rarity," Rainbow began as she trotted over to her as she leapt off the piano, dusting herself off, "couldn't you have chosen a more portable instrument?" she asked.

"Heavens no," she replied, "The grand piano is the most refined and elegant of instruments," she argued, pushing down on a few keys, "With it, I will be to express my full musicality!" she said, readying her fingers.

“Me personally, I’d prefer a pipe organ than a piano.” Dustin said when suddenly, a loud ringing echoed the room, halting Rarity from playing the piano. She turned to see that it was a timer that Pinkie had, which she stopped and then stuffed into her hair.

"Well, our time's up," Rainbow said, "I guess we'll have to move our practice to the gym."

"Guess you're gonna express your 'full musicality' clear across campus," Applejack said bluntly with her arm around Rarity.

"Huh?! Aww…" she moaned, very upset.

"Or, you could play this!" Pinkie said, appearing out of nowhere to sit on the piano, holding a silver coated keytar in her hands, "It's part guitar, part keyboard!" she explained, "It's a guitar-key!"

"You mean, a 'keytar'…" Rainbow corrected.

"Po-tay-to, To-mah-to…" Pinkie quipped as Rarity took the keytar from her hands. She then began to play a few notes, becoming more and more fascinated with the instrument upon each note she played.

“I suppose it’s easier to tote around than a piano.” Dustin said with a nod.

"Ooh! Ooh! Oh my!" she exclaimed as she began to rock out, playing at a fever pace, getting everyone's attention as she continued her excellent playing. As she then hit the top note of the keytar, an aura enveloped her, growing out her ears, and creating a lovely, spiraling ponytail for her luscious hair.

"Cool!" Rainbow exclaimed.

"Well look at that…" Applejack said amazed as Rarity slid on top of the grand piano as she played across the entire keytar one last time, surprising the Diamond Dog boys.

"Wowee!" Pinkie exclaimed.

"Oh my goodness!" Fluttershy said in surprise.

“New transformation added to playlist.” The Digitrix said with a beep.

“Why am I not surprised. Let’s see what we got this time.” Dustin said as he looked to the screen of the Digitrix that displayed the image of said new transformation.

“Well, I’d like to see too, darling.” Rarity said as she and the others wanted to see the new form. It looked somewhat like a cross between Rarity and Lusamine from Pokémon Sun and Moon.

“Oh my…How stunning!” Rarity said in admiration, “And my magic made such a beauty?”

“Although it is yet another female transformation.” Dustin said with a groan.

"Well then," Applejack began, "how 'bout you take that keytar and move your tail to our next rehearsal space?" she asked.

"Fine, fine," Rarity replied, "I don't suppose…?" she began to ask, but the Diamond Dog boys immediately understood, grinning and nodding eagerly. They then lifted up the piano, much to the perplexed looks of the other girls and carried Rarity out of the room as she played her new keytar one last time before she exited.

“You know I could use Prim-8 to carry that thing for ya, right?” Dustin asked Rarity with a raised eyebrow.

Deal or no Deal

Out in front of Applejack's barn-like house, there was a garage sale taking place with a few people looking at different items for sale, with Granny Smith sitting at a table with an open cash box. Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Rarity, along with Dustin and Pixel were all gathered around her, with stern looks on their faces.

"Okay Granny, one more time," Applejack began as she shut the cash box after someone had paid for something, "When you accidentally sold my bass at the garage sale, who did ya sell it to?" she asked as Granny Smith tried to recollect what had happened, stammering a little.

"I sold it to the owners of that new pawn shop!" she answered after realizing, "Uh, Flibbity-Flabbity, somethin' like that," she added.

“Then we better help AJ get her bass back before it gets pawned off to someone else." Dustin said, making the others nod.

"C'mon y'all!" she shouted as she raced out onto the sidewalk. The others followed quickly in pursuit, eager as Applejack was to get the bass back.

Later

The group found themselves entering the new pawnshop with a ringing of a bell after they entered. They all looked around to see multiple items up on shelves, in display cases, or just lying around on the floor.

"Welcome to the grand opening of the Flim-Flam Brothers' Everything-Under-the-Sun Emporium!" a voice exclaimed as the whole group turned to see two men wearing blue and white striped shirts with black bowties, white pants, white and blue shoes, and similar hairstyles of shiny red hair. One of them had a moustache and a pin on his shirt shaped like an apple slice, while the other had a pin that resembled an apple missing a slice.

"If you want it-" Flam began.

"-we've got it!" they said together as Flam caught Flim in his arms as he jumped into them.

"Need a pogo stick?" Flim said, bouncing on one.

"A bowling ball?" Flam said, holding one.

"A stuffed clown?" Flim asked, holding a clown doll.

"Whatever this is?" Flam asked, holding a strange-looking object like a dish bowl with lights all over it, attached to a microscope.

"Ah'd like that bass," Applejack said, gesturing over to the bass that was on a stand in the corner, with the glow of a disco ball shining upon it. The bass had a bright brown outer edge, and a darker body with the long, black neck.

"I can give you this base for a non-negotiable price of one thousand dollars," Flim said as he brought the bass over, holding it in his hands.

“Highway robbery!” Dustin said with a fake cough.

"Why you only paid Granny Smith two dollars for it!" Rarity argued with two fingers up, while Applejack had a fearful look on her face.

"Yes, well," Flim began as he handed the bass off to his brother, "we have to cover our overhead and transportation costs."

"Seriously?" Pixel said as she crossed her arms impatiently.

"Look," Applejack began, "Granny should've never sold my bass," she said, "Ah'll give ya the two dollars back and we'll call it even," she said, holding two dollars in her hand as the other girls agreed.

"Likely story!" they both argued.

"It is!" Applejack replied, with her friends glaring angrily at the brothers, "That's my bass!"

"And can you prove that this is, in fact, your bass?" Flim asked as he took the bass back from Flam.

"Her damn initials are on the strap!" Dustin noted with little patience on the strap, as the brothers both looked at the strap to see the letters A.J. stitched upon the leather.

"That could mean anything!" Flam stammered, "It could stand for…"

"…Aardvark Junior!" Flim finished.

"Anvil Jokers!" Flam added.

"Or Animal Jane," Flim added.

"Why, I bet you don't even play the bass, Applejack!" Flam continued, "If that is your real name…" he said, close to her face.

“You mother…that’s it! RD, hold my jacket cause I’m fixin’ ta start knockin’ heads!” Dustin growled in anger as he handed Rainbow his jacket, but Pixel held him back.

“Whoa! Hold up, tiger!” Pixel said, trying to calm Dustin down.

"Well, for the record, she DOES play the bass!" Pinkie screamed while rocking wildly on a rocking horse in the corner of the store.

Suddenly, Applejack grabbed the bass out of Flim's hands, putting the strap around her as she began to strum on the bass, moving her fingers along the neck up against the guitar strings. The girls watched excitedly as Flim and Flam were very surprised by Applejack's skillful playing. With one final riff, a burst of energy enveloped Applejack as it blew by the brothers, messing up their hairdos as the energy vanished to reveal that she had transformed, with her ears growing out, and her hair also growing a ponytail as well. Her bass had changed too, with the design on the body becoming an apple beside musical notes, and the neck had apples evenly aligned upon it. The girls all cheered as the ringing of the doorbell ceased from the energy wave.

"Perhaps this really is her bass…" Flim admitted as Applejack showed them the two dollars she had offered earlier. "But there's still the transportation costs and overhead!" he said as he and his brother fixed their hairdos.

"Don't forget the stocking fees!" Flam added.

"Wouldn't dream of it brother!" Flim replied, putting his arm around him. Applejack sighed as there was no easy way to convince the two.

Dustin then had a grin on his face. “I think I have something to cover all of that. I’ll be right back.”

“I better go with him.” Pixel said before she ran out, and she saw Dustin fiddle with the Digitrix.

“What are you doing?” Pixel asked.

“Just watch.” Dustin said before tapping the screen, enveloping him in a blue flash of light. What Dustin transformed into was a crystalline humanoid.

“RAINBOW ROCKS!” Dustin called out in a deep voice with a metallic echo in it.

(Transformation Index)

Name: Rainbow Rocks

Species: Crystallosian

Rainbow Rocks may seem pretty to look at, but he is no diamond in the rough. Capable of both absorbing and redirecting energy, as well as control and generate crystals, possessing near indestructibility, this walking crystal can both kick ass and bedazzle the crowd. What’s most known about this crystalline brawler is he possesses a whole flock of alternate forms he can change into depending on the energy he absorbs.

“How is this going to help AJ get her bass back?” Pixel asked, but Dustin knelt, grabbed some dirt in his hand before squeezing it, his hand glowed a faint rainbow color for a brief moment before fading. He then opened his hand to reveal a pure diamond.

“Whoa.” Pixel said in total amazement.

“Cool right?” Dustin said before turning back to normal.

“And now hopefully this plan works.” Dustin said before he and Pixel walked back in.

“That was quick.” Applejack said when she noticed the diamond in Dustin’s hand. “Where the hay did ya get that?!”

“Something I had for a while.” Dustin said before displaying the gemstone to the two. “If there is no negotiable price, then perhaps we could settle for a trade? This glimmering beauty for AJ’s bass.” Dustin said, Flim grabbed it and examined it.

“No way that’s a real diamond.” Flam said in shock, but what Flim was about to say shocked him even more.

“Actually, it’s authentic.” Flim said, shocking everyone, minus Dustin even further.

“With a beauty like that, I’m certain you’ll make about millions. Assuming if we have a deal that is.” Dustin said with a raised brow.

“Deal!” Both men said in unison, handing AJ the bass.

“Pleasure doing business with you, gentlemen.” Dustin said as he and the others walked out.

“Dude. Seriously, where did you even get that?” Rainbow Dash asked, making Dustin smile.

“I’ll show ya.” Dustin said before turning back into Rainbow rocks, shocking the girls. “Meet Rainbow Rocks.”

“Oooh. Pretty.” Pinkie said in amazement.

“As for where that diamond came from…” Dustin said before he grabbed some dirt, tightened his grip, making his hand glow the same rainbow glow for a moment before unfolding his hand, revealing another diamond-shaped diamond in his hands.

“No way!” Applejack said in both shock and amazement.

“Is there nothing you can’t do?” Rainbow asked with amazement as Dustin changed back to normal. The Digitrix beeped again.

“New transformation added to playlist.” The Digitrix said, making Dustin groan a bit.

“Seriously? Hopefully this doesn’t become a new thing. Well, let’s see what it is, this time.” Dustin said as he and the others looked to the Digitrix screen, revealing the Transformation looked almost like Applejack.

When Dustin saw this, his face was as red as a tomato. “What the…why the hell…” Dustin stammered with eyes wide as dinner plates.

“Uh…I have no words.” Pixel said, as shocked as the others. Pinkie and Rainbow however, were laughing at this reveal.

"Bwahahaha! Oh dear God!" Rainbow Dash said while laughing.

"I can imagine how many guys are gonna eye hump you as that one!" Pinkie laughed like a hyena, making Dustin blush even redder.

Born a new person

Sunset was standing on top of the school building, staring at the sun over at the horizon.

“Hey. There you are.” Dustin’s voice said to Sunset, startling her a bit, but she calmed herself.

“Dustin! You almost gave me a heart attack!” Sunset said as she clutched her chest.

“Sorry about that.” Dustin said, walking beside her. “Nice view, eh?” Dustin asked Sunset, but he then noticed Sunset’s expression. “You ok?”

Sunset only sighed in response before answering, “No, I’m not.” Sunset said with remorse, still upset about her actions, and Dustin can see that.

(OST - My Past Is Not Today)

Sunset: Power
Was all I desired

Sunset sang as the sun began to set.

Sunset: But all that grew inside me
Was the darkness I acquired
When I began to fall
And I lost the path ahead
That's when your friendship found me
And it lifted me instead
Like a phoenix burning bright
In the sky
I'll show there's another side to me
You can't deny
I may not know what the future holds
But hear me when I say
That my past does not define me
'Cause my past is not today

As the song continued, me and Sunset were in a hallway, pictures of Sunset prior to her change were hung. Sunset grabbed each one and threw them into the trash.

Sunset: Ambition
Is what I believed
Would be the only way
To set me free
But when it disappeared
And I found myself alone
That's when you came and got me
And it felt like I was home
Like a phoenix burning bright
In the sky

Sunset continued to sing as she discarded her jacket, making Dustin catch it.

Sunset: I'll show there's another side to me
You can't deny

Sunset’s body than began to surge with yellow aura as the sun began to rise.

Sunset: I may not know what the future holds
But hear me when I say
That my past does not define me
'Cause my past is not today

Sunset’s song finished as a pair of fiery wings and a fiery tail appeared behind her, but this happened only briefly before Sunset was gently sent back to the ground. Dustin walked up to her, a warm smile on his face.

“Well, you truly have changed for the better Sunny.” Dustin said, patting Sunset’s back. Sunset then looked to him with a giggle.

“Did you just call me Sunny?” Sunset asked, still giggling.

“Oh, like you don’t like the nickname.” Dustin said teasingly.

“New transformation added to playlist.” The Digitrix beeped.

“Oh, for God’s sake.” Dustin said, but Sunset was confused.

“Is that thing broken or something?” Sunset asked.

“Nah, it’s just very recently, when the girls accessed their magic, I’ve been getting new transformations lately.” Dustin said with a shrug.

“Oh yeah. Pinkie told me about that yesterday.” Sunset said before she walked to see the new transformation. “Well, let’s see what this one is.”

‘Let’s hope this one isn’t wearing anything suggestive.’ Dustin said as he and Sunset then saw the new transformation of the Digitrix’s screen. It looked like Sunset, but with less curls, dressed in a while cloth, and had eight wings; four yellow angelic wings on her right side and four red demon wings on her left side.

“Wow! Looks actually kinda cool.” Dustin said with a smirk.

“So Pinkie wasn’t kidding when she said those forms were all female.” Sunset said, making Dustin look to her in shock.

“She told you that?” Dustin asked, a bit red.

“Yeah. She even told me about the one made by AJ’s magic, especially the “choice in clothing”.” Sunset said, trying her best not to laugh.

“God dammit Pinkie!” Dustin looked away in embarrassment. “Oh, here’s your jacket, by the way.” Dustin handed Sunset her jacket, who graciously took it.

“Hey, Dustin?” Sunset asked, getting his attention. “Why have you been so nice to me after the fall formal. I mean I’ve sided with a lunatic out to get you, tried to take your watch, even threatened to rule both Equestria and Cyberspace.” As Sunset said tis, her eyes began to water. “And after all that, you showed me kindness when Twilight and the others beaten me.”

Dustin felt a pain I n his chest when he saw Sunset tearing up, so he placed a hand on her shoulder, surprising her.

“Because I’m a guy who believes in second chances. Sure, you did some awful stuff back then, but you were in a dark place.” As Dustin said this, Sunset was touched by each word. “You just needed someone to lead you down the right path.”

And with that, Sunset wrapped her arms around him with a hug, sobbing her eyes out. Dustin only rubbed her back to calm her down.

“Thank you,” Was all Sunset said as Dustin returned the hug.

Under the rainbow

It was a bright day out on the soccer field of CHS. Dustin was standing in front of Allister, the two looking at each other with a smirk on their faces.

“Alright kiddo, I believe it’s high time we test out those new magic forms.” Allister said as Dustin had his game face on. Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie, Pixel, Fluttershy, Rainbow and Sunset were on the bleachers.

“Be careful, Dustin.” Fluttershy called out to Dustin in slight worry.

“Relax Futters, I got this.” Dustin said before dialing up his Digitrix. Dustin then looks to Allister before saying, “In the immortal words of Ben Tennyson, “its hero time”,” before tapping the screen, triggering the transformation.

His body was surrounded by a ring of strangely colored Bar Code, making an egg-shaped dome as his skin began to glow so his entire body was now a shining silhouette of white light. Two rectangular 'plates' seemed to appear out of nowhere and they surrounded Dustin's glowing form, one in front of him and the other behind him, both standing vertical before moved towards each other, squashing around Dustin as if he was in a press mold.

Cerulean armor then appeared out of nowhere and fused onto his body before the 'mold' suddenly exploded and Dustin's new form fell through the air and landed on a small square platform with the Digitrix Symbol in a rainbow streak.

The transformation was female, had messy rainbow hair, a cerise visor obscuring her eyes, and clad in cerulean armor with a deep blue jumpsuit underneath.

"LIGHT SPEED! " Dustin exclaimed in a gruff feminine voice.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Light Speed

Capable of running nearly twice the speed of sound, possessing electrokinetic abilities, and has thrusters mounted on her shoulders to further enhance her speed, Light Speed is one that even the most veteran Olympic gold medal sprinter can’t keep up with.

The girls watched in amazement, but Rainbow Dash was the most impressed.

“Awesome!” Rainbow Dash called out with a squee.

“Hope you can keep up, Al!” Dustin called before he…uh, she dashed to Allister with blinding speed, but Allister managed to sidestep to avoid.

“I may be old, but I’m not as weak as you think, kiddo.” Allister said with a smirk.

“Ok, but let’s see if you know how to do the Electric Boogaloo!” Dustin said before firing a few bolts of electricity at Allister, who managed to dodge each one with little effort, shocking everyone. “Jesus, Al! What kinda medications are you taking?”

“Just exercise and a healthy diet,” Allister quipped with a smirk.

“Okay, but let’s see if this one can blow you away!” Dustin said before pressing on the Digitrix on his/her shoulder, switching to another form that resembled Fluttershy dressed in yellow and green armor and a pair of butterfly wings on his/her back.

“PIXIE GUST!” Dustin called out in a softer feminine voice.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Pixie Gust

Possessing aerokinetic and chlorokinetic abilities, the ability to communicate with animals and healing abilities, Pixie Gust is truly a force of nature to be reckoned with.

“Oh my,” Fluttershy said with amazement.

“Oooh. Pretty.” Pinkie said in childish wonder. Dustin then thrusted his/her hands forward, launching a cyclone towards Allister, who seemed to struggle to keep his footing.

“Oh, that’s what he meant when he said “blow you away”.” Pinkie Pie said with a chuckle. Allister then disappeared in a flash of light, surprising everyone once again.

“Huh?” Applejack asked in shock.

“Where did…” Dustin asked before he heard a whistle behind him, making him/her turn to see Allister with a smug grin.

“I’ll admit, that was unexpected,” Allister said with a chuckle.

“Oh, I’m just getting warmed up.” Dustin said before pressing the Digitrix symbol again, changing into a different form. This one had pink skin, darker pink hair in pigtails, dressed in a candy themed uniform, and had an overall cartoonish appearance.

“COMIC CANDY!” Dustin exclaimed in a high-pitched childish voice.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Comic Candy
Species: Wankawarnerian
Created by analyzing the magic of Pinkie Pie, Comic candy is truly one looney toon. With a hyperactive personality and capable of defying the laws of physics, this whacky transformation is very unpredictable as she is comical.

“That uniform looks good enough to eat.” Pinkie said, her mouth salivating.

“Never been too fond of sweets,” Allister said with a smirk. Dustin then reached into the front pocket of her uniform before pulling out a mallet, now Dustin surprised everyone.

“How in the world,” Rarity asked, not sure how what Dustin did was possible.

“Ah. Cartoon Physics. Probably should’ve seen that coming.” Allister said as Dustin went to strike him with the mallet, but he dodged.

“How about we do some stretches!” Dustin said before he/she stretched his/her arm to impossible lengths, wrapping it around Allister like a boa constrictor.

“Uh…I have no words!” Sunset said a bit weirded out by what she saw.

“Up we go!” Dustin said before he/she used his/her arm as a spring to blast Allister in the air. As Allister was in mid-air, Dustin reached into his/her front pocket to pull out cannon before firing a blast of what look like cotton candy at him, encasing him in a cocoon made of the cotton candy.

“Cotton candy?” Allister asked with confusion.

“Let’s see what else we got.” Dustin said before pressing the Digitrix symbol yet again, changing into a form that somewhat resembled Rarity.

“PRISMADONNA!” Dustin yelled out in a posh voice that screamed high class.

“Oh my. What a dazzling display!” Rarity said in awe.

“You’ve seen nothing yet, dearies.” Dustin said before firing multiple diamond shards at Allister, who teleported again before the crystal projectiles could hit their target.

“Not quite a diamond in the rough, are ya?” Allister said before firing energy blasts from…his sleeves at Dustin, who quickly dodged.

“Firing at a lady, how uncouth,” Dustin pressed the Digitrix symbol again, this time changing into a form closely resembling Applejack.

“HARD CORE!” Dustin said in a gruff voice with a southern drawl.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Hard Core
Species: Gaean
Created by analyzing the magic of Applejack, hard Core is certainly as tough as nails. Possession terrakinetic and chlorokinetic abilities, enhanced strength and durability, and a no-nonsense attitude, you absolutely wouldn’t want to mess with hometown sweetheart.

Dustin then looks to himself/herself, blushing red at the attire he is wearing.

“Aw, come on! Does she have ta wear this getup?” Dustin said with a groan. “Aw well, let’s see what she does.” Dustin said before slamming a fist to the ground, creating an immense tremor, knocking Allister off of his feet.

“Careful boy!” Allister said as he got up.

“Yeah! Ya nearly damaged somethin’!” Applejack called out.

“Alright, alright! Let’s see what else this gal can do.” Dustin said before he/she raised an arm, causing multiple vines to erupt from the ground. “Now let’s see if ah can “whip” ya inta shape!” Dusti said before one of the vines went to strike at Allister, who dodged.

“Seriously boy, you’re coming up with puns left and right.” Alliser said with a chuckle.

“Not mah fault ah was born with a sense of humor.” Dustin said as another vine went to strike, but Allister used his “claws” to cut the vine, surprising everyone yet again.

“What? You think these bad boys are just for show?” Allister said before his claws began to spin like fans. “Time for some weed whacking!” Allister said before he charged, cutting down each vine at Mach 10 speed.

“Alright, sugar. How's about we crank up the heat!” Dustin said as he/she pressed the Digitrix symbol for like the sixth time, transforming into a form that resembles Sunset Shimmer but with four angelic wings on one side and four demonic wings on the other.

“SOLAR FLARE!” Dustin called out as he/she took to the air.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Solar Flare
Species: Lucean
Created from analyzing the magic of Sunset Shimmer, Solar Flare is a combination of compassion and aggression. Possessing pyrokinetic abilities, heightened intelligence, and the ability of flight, this fiery fighter can easily burn away enemies foolish enough to cross her.

“Whoa!” Sunset Shimmer said in amazement and surprise.

“And while we’re at it, how about we make it rain,” Dustin said before his/her hands were encased in fire, then he/she spun around, creating a barrage of fireballs that rained down at Allister, who just fired ice beams from his sleeves to put out the fire balls.

“Be careful! Are you trying to set the place on fire!?” Allister called out to Dustin, who just looks away in slight shame.

“Eh…sorry. Kinda got ahead of myself,” Dustin said with a blush. “But I’m just getting warmed up.” Dustin then swooped down to deliver a barrage of punches, to which he dodged most of them, but he did get hit few times before teleporting yet again.

“I’m not one for hitting a lady, but with you I’ll make an exception.” Allister said before his claws…surprisingly morphed into massive gun barrels, surprising everybody once more.

“Huh?!” Rainbow and Applejack asked in shock.

“Wowee!” Pinkie said in amazement.

“No freaking way!” Pixel said in shock.

“Oh crap!” Dustin said in total shock before Allister fired round after round of energy blasts. Dustin tried to dodge them, but some actually met their mark, knocking him out of the air and landing hard onto the ground.

“Ooooohhh!” The girls winced in unison at Dustin’s rough landing. Despite the pain Dustin was suffering, he/she managed to get up and bear with it.

“Looks like I win this sparring match.” Allister said, but Dustin chuckled, surprising everybody.

“Oh, it’s not over yet.” Dustin said, now confusing everyone.

“Huh?” Rainbow asked.

“He doesn’t know when to call it quits, does he?” Sunset sad, admiring his spirit.

“What are you talking about? You just used all of the transformations you acquired from magic.” Allister said in confusion, but Dustin continued to chuckle.

“Now who said that? Not me.” Dustin said before looking to Allister with a grin. “I do have one last surprise in store.” Dustin said before he pressed the Digitrix symbol for the final time, changing into what looks like Twilight Sparkle in a purple witch costume and holding a magic staff.

“CHARM!” Dustin called out while doing a two-finger salute.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Charm
Species: Magisapien
Created by analyzing the magic of Twilight Sparkle, this one is the first magic-based transformation added to the Digitrix database. Possessing magical abilities and heightened intelligence, face this crafty sorceress and she’ll definitely put a spell on you.

This new form surprised everybody, including Allister.

“Whoa! When did he get that one?” Rainbow asked in shock. Allister then figured out.

“You gained that form after you and the girls defeated Sunset and Ginzo, didn’t you?” Allister said, making Dustin smirk.

“You got it. Though the weird thing is that I’ve just found this one yesterday, “Dustin admitted, surprising everybody yet again. “This one kinda slipped my mind. But enough chatter.” Dustin then jumped back a few feet and raised her staff, conjuring a purple six-pointed star with a ball of light on each end.

“Oooooo,” The girls said in unison as they saw the display.

“SIX SHOOTING STARS!” Dustin called out and with a thrust of his/her staff, the balls of light dashed towards Allister at impossible speeds, and once they made impact, a tremendous flash of light was made, making the girls cover their eyes to avoid being blind. But once the flash died down, all that could be seen was a scorch mark on the ground.

“Quite a unique trick,” Allister said, making everybody look to him. “Thank god for teleporting, am I right?” Allister said before his claws morphed into gun barrels again, and he fired two beams of energy towards him, but Dustin simply grinned before vanishing in a flash of purple light.

Everyone began to search the field, searching for where Dustin had disappeared to. Only to be startled by the sound of a loud pop and a flash of purple light from behind Allister. “A unique trick indeed,” said Dustin with gleeful grin on his/her face. Allister raised his blaster to attack, but his confusion slowed his reaction speed, giving Dustin a golden opportunity

Dustin then teleported behind Allister raising his/her staff before thrusting it forward, creating a purple magic circle before calling out “HARMONIOUS SPECTRUM”, firing a rainbow beam at Allister. And once the attack hit its target, a tremendous explosion was made, knocking Allister off his feet.

“YAY!” Pinkie and Fluttershy called out.

“Aw yeah! Way to go, dude!” Rainbow cheered as Dustin changed back to normal. Dustin then walked to Allister, who thankfully suffered only some minor damage.

“You alright Al? I wasn’t too rough, was I?” Dustin asked in a bit of worry, bt Allister chuckled.

“No, I’m fine my boy. I honestly was not expecting that in the slightest.” Allister said as he was being helped up by Dustin. The girls then walked up to the two.

“Dude, that was totally awesome!” Rainbow said, patting Dustin’s back.

“More than awesome! That was super-duper, inanely cool!” Pinkie said with her usual childish personality. Dustin’s stomach then began to growl.

“Eheh, guess all that training worked up my appetite.” Dustin said with a blush.

“How about we head to Burger Shack. My treat.” Allister said as the gang were off. But while they weren’t looking, three figures were watching the whole scene.

OP - Code Lyoko Theme Song (metal remix) by Red Mertah

I groan as I felt a sudden sharp pain from my rough landing. I then looked at my surroundings and saw that the place was entirely different. But the biggest thing that weirded me out were the people. They didn’t look too different, but their skin and hair color were beyond normal. And I don’t mean like the normal average skin tones, but I mean like colors ranging from pink, cyan, green, yellow, pink, grey, you name it. And the hair they had were colored beyond normally, some even were multicolored, and some were even in weird styles.

“Uh…okay. Either I’m dreaming, or I am in a whole different place.” I said, not knowing what to think. I pinched myself, but as soon as I felt the pain, that's when I realized that this was no dream.

"Okay, this is not a dream. Where even am I?" I said as I then looked at the Digitrix. Suddenly, I hear a girl’s scream.

“Oh boy. Sounds like somebody is in trouble!” I ran to off to the direction the scream came from.

When I arrived, I saw a girl with light purple skin with purple eyes, deep purple hair with a magenta and lavender streak, dressed in a light blue blouse with a magenta bow tie, a purple skirt with the image of a pink and white six pointed star on it, and dressed in purple boots.

And in front of her was a purple dog with green eyes and ears, a green underbelly a green tuft of fur on top of his head, and a purple spiked collar with a heart shape pendant.

“Twilight, you have to get it together!” The dog spoke, surprising me.

‘Holy…did that dog just speak?!’ I asked to myself in utter shock.

“What... does the rest of me look like?” The girl named Twilight asked her dog.

“Um, like you. Only not you. Your muzzle's really small.” The dog said to Twilight, making her touch her face. She looked like she was going to let out another scream, but the dog shushed her.

“Are you gonna scream again? Where are we?” The dog said before he then notices me. “Uh Twilight?” the dog said to Twilight, the girl looks to him, then she notices me.

“Hey there. Uh… You need some help getting up?” I said to Twilight, walking over to her before kneeling and offered her a hand.

“Oh uh, sure.” Twilight said as I hep he on her feet, but she was wobbly at first.

I lead her to a set of stairs, and Twilight was walking a bit wobbly up them. “Uh… do you need any help?” I asked with a raised eyebrow, but she just waves her hand.

“No, thank you. I’m…Whooaaa... Whoa! Ooh...” Twilight said but had to catch herself on the stair railing.

“You’re walking like you’ve never used your legs much.” I said with a raised eyebrow as Twilight managed to gain her footing. I opened the door for her and motioned her to step inside. “After you.” I said to Twilight, who walks in, and I follow suite.

The interior of the building was spacious, massive, and the décor looked appealing to the eye. From the banners and such I noticed in the room this place looked like some fancy boarding school or something.

“Wow. Swanky.” I said with a wolf whistle. I then looked to a trophy display case where two trophies and some ribbons were displayed. “Dude. Sick trophies. Whoever won these must be really popular here.” I said looking at the trophies displayed. Twilight then noticed herself in the reflection and was wide eyed in shock at what she was seeing.

“Wha-what am I?” Twilight asked in shock, making me raise an eyebrow at her reaction.

“Uh, a girl? And a pretty one at that.” I said to Twilight, who looks at me with surprise, noticing that I called her pretty. “You don’t have a mirror at your place?” I asked with confusion in my tone again, finding this girl’s behavior strange. Not that she was a bad guy or anything, but just something weird about her.

“Nope. I don’t.” Twilight said to me a bit fast. I knew she was lying when she said that, but I just let it slide.

“Uh…Ok? Anyway, perhaps we should have a look around the place.” Suddenly, a school bell rings as multiple students head towards the large school in front of us. “Hey! Watch it!” I say to the many students that walked past us as Twilight fell on her butt. “Hey! Can you guys not see where you’re stepping? Honesty, people these days.” I said when I look to see Twilight was next to a boy.

“Whoa. You okay?” The boy said to Twilight. He had spikey blue hair, light amber skin, baby blue eyes, dressed in a black blazer with the symbol of a shield and lightning bolt on both shoulders, white t-shirt underneath, blue jeans and black and white sneakers with a lightning bolt on them. From the look Twilight had on her face, I could tell she was smitten.

“At least one student here isn’t rude.” I said to Flash, who just nods.

“Yeah, I know. Name’s Flash Sentry. And you are?” Flash introduced himself to us.

“The name’s Dustin Miller. And this lovely gal here is Twilight.” I said, introducing both me and Twilight. Flash chuckled when looking at Twilight.

“Well, you’re not wrong on lovely. Well, I’ll see you two around sometimes.” Flash said nicely before walking off. As Flash walked off, Twilight looked at him until he vanished. I noticed this and decided to have a little fun.

“Uh oh, looks like somebody’s smitten.” I said teasingly, making Twilight look to me, blushing madly.

“What? What makes you think that! That’s ridiculous!” Twilight said with a nervous laugh, but I was not buying her little lie.

“Uh huh. If that’s the case, then why is your face red?” I teased a bit more, making her stutter like crazy. I snickered a little, but I decided enough was enough. “Relax, I’m only teasing ya. We should look around the place.” I said as we both began to walk off. Twilight was stumbling, but I caught her before she could fall.

“You may want to let me help ya. You look like some klutz walking like that.” I said o twilight, who blushed a bit in embarrassment.

Meanwhile

3rd Person POV

We find ourselves in dark room filled with computer monitors. Then we see a man in a hooded coat, sitting on some chair with a holographic screen in front of him. He was watching some footage of the events that transpired before Dustin’s vanishing.

“Dammit! This boy could be anywhere! But where?!” The man said in frustration, slamming a clenched fist on an arm of his char. The holographic screen then displayed another hooded figure.

“Have you found any sign of the boy and the Digitrix yet?” He asked the hooded figure.

“Sadly, no. We’ve checked multiple worlds, but still no sign of him.” The hooded figure said, making the man growl.

“Well, keep searching. Leave no stone unturned!” The man said to the figure, who nodded before the screen vanished.

“I don’t know where you’ve sent that boy to, Allister. But I will find him.” The man said as he rose from his seat. “And when I do, the Digitrix will be in my clutches!”

With Dustin and Twilight

Dustin’s POV

After some looking around, we were walking through a hallway. Twilight seemed to get a hang on walking now.

“Looks like you’ve finally caught you’re footing.” I said to Twilight, who looks at me with confusion.

“My what?” Twilight asked me, who seemed unfamiliar with the term.

“I mean you seemed to be walking good.” I said to Twilight, who nods in understanding. Suddenly, we heard some talking. We walk towards the source, and we see two girls.

One had yellowish skin, pink hair and aqua eyes, was dressed in a white shirt, a green skirt and green boots. The other had red hair with some yellow streaks, amber skin, green eyes, dressed in a magenta shirt with a sun symbol, an orange, yellow and magenta skirt, and had black and hot pink boots. This girl screamed queen bitch, which was evident by how she was talking to the other girl, who was so timid she would jump from seeing her own shadow.

From how this girl was talking to the other one, I felt my anger slowly rise. And I could tell Twilight and her dog both felt the same.

“You really are pathetic. It's no wonder your best friends are all stray animals.” The red-haired girl said, making me lose it.

“Jesus H. Christ, woman! Are you on your period or something!?” I said rhetorically, getting the red head’s attention while making everyone else present glance at me.

“What did you say?” The red-haired girl asked me.

“Did I stutter? What the hell gives you the right to talk down to somebody like her, who was clearly minding her own business!?” I said to the girl as Twilight went to help the shy girl.

"Yeah! How dare you speak to her that way!" Twilight said, backing me up. Sunset glares at Twilight, then to me before having a smug smile.

“You two must be new here. I can speak to anyone any way I want.” The red-haired girl said to us, but I was not gonna back down.

“You think that now, but eventually you’ll find out that karma is even bitchier than you are!” I said to the red-haired girl, who was at mad at my remark, and many of the witnesses gasped.

“You better watch it, string bean!” The girl said to me with anger. But I was just getting started. Her threats and insults were definitely not enough to scare me in the slightest.

“Pfft! String bean? That’s truly original coming from a queen bitch that has bacon for hair.” I said with a smirk, making the students present giggle.

“Oh god.” A girl said, trying not to laugh.

“That’s a good one.” A boy said, making Sunset red in a mix of both anger and embarrassment. In a fit of rage, she grabs me by the collar of my blazer and slamming me to a locker.

"You just messed up, big time!" The girl growled in fury, but I wasn't scared in the slightest.

"Not so good being on the ass end is it, bacon head?" I taunted the read head with a smirk. She then held her fist up, but before she could punch me, she took a deep breath, calms down and releases me.

"You're so on my list, smart guy!" The red-haired girl growled before storming off. Some of the students were murmuring amongst each other while looking at me with awe, but I paid them no mind as I was too focused watching Sunset storm off.

“Christ! What the hell has her panties in a twist?!” I said before cooling off and waking to the shy girl. “Hey. You alright?” I asked the shy girl, who just nods.

“I can't believe you did that!” The shy girl said to us.

“We couldn't just stand there.” Twilight said with a shrug as I nod in agreement.

“Got that right! If there is one thing I hate, it’s bullying.” I said to the shy girl.

“Yes. But nobody ever stands up to Sunset Shimmer.” The shy girl said.

“You mean ol’ bacon head?" I asked the girl, looking at the direction this Sunset girl stormed off to. "Please, she doesn't scare me. I’ve dealt with punks much meaner than her.” I said with a shrug.

“You must really have a death wish, dude.” A male student said to me.

“Yeah. Sunset Shimmer is the queen here at Canterlot High.” A female student, shocking me, and apparently Twilight too.

“Canterlot High/Sunset Shimmer!?” Me and Twilight both said in surprise, but me and the shy girl and Dustin look at her.

“You've heard of her?” The shy girl asked.

“Sort of...” Twilight said.

“Can’t say I know her.” I said with a shrug.

“I don't think I've seen you two around before. Did you just transfer to Canterlot High from another school?” The girl asked us.

“You could say that. My name's Twilight.” Twilight introduced.

“And the name’s Dustin Miller.” I said with a slight bow. "And you are?" I asked the shy girl.

“I'm... Fluttershy.” The shy girl said in a whisper.

“Sorry, what was that?” Twilight asked.

“It's Fluttershy!” The shy girl said, even quieter.

“She says her name is Fluttershy. Fittingly cute for a girl with a personality like yours.” I said, making Fluttershy go bashful, but then Fluttershy saw Spike, Twilight’s dog, emerging from besides Twilight.

“Oh, my goodness! Who's this sweet little guy?” Fluttershy running towards Spike, nearly making Twilight fall over.

“That's Spike! My, uh... dog!” Twilight said as I knelt to the dog.

“Well, little fella is quite cute.” I said before patting Spike on the head. Yes, I have a weakness for cute things. Sue me.

“Oh, wouldn't ya just give anything to know what they're really thinking?” Fluttershy said.

“He usually just tells me.” Twilight said.

“Oh, w-what do you mean?” Fluttershy asked as Spike barks.

“Uh, what she means is that she can somewhat understand him." Dustin said, making Fluttershy and Twilight look at him. "You know, like a dog whisperer.” I said with a shrug, and Fluttershy seemed to take my lie.

“So. Sunset Shimmer said you picked something up. Something that belonged to her. It wasn't a crown, was it?” Twilight asked, surprising Fluttershy.

“How did you know?” Fluttershy asked.

“Uh, lucky guess? Do you still have it?” Twilight asked, but Fluttershy shook her head.

“Well, do you know what happened to it?” I asked Fluttershy, not knowing what this crown is important for.

Flashback

Fluttershy was passing fliers to many students.

“This morning, I was passing out flyers for the animal shelter like I do every Wednesday. Canterlot's animal shelter needs more volunteers.”

When Fluttershy saw that nobody was even paying attention to her, she started to sob. But then suddenly she felt something hit her head. She looks and noticed the crown before picking it up.

End Flashback

“I have no idea how it got there. But I didn't want anything to happen to it, so I decided to give it to Principal Celestia.” Fluttershy said, surprising Twilight for some reason.

“Principal Celestia? She's the ruler here?” Twilight asked.

“You could say that. Technically, I guess she and Vice Principal Luna do make the rules.” Fluttershy said with a shrug.

“Where is she now?” Twilight asked.

“Probably in her office. Third door on your left.” Fluttershy said, pointing the way.

“Thank you!” Twilight called and was about to run off, leaving me with Fluttershy.

“Oh, wait! You're not really supposed to have pets on school grounds. Might wanna tuck him into your backpack. That's what I do.” Fluttershy said as she unzips her backpack, revealing a cat, a rabbit and a few birds.

“What in Sam hell?” I said in surprise. “How can you even fit any of those in there? More importantly, how do people not notice?” I asked dumbfounded.

“They just get so lonely when I'm in school all day.” Flutterhsy said.

“Oh, okay! Thank you!” Twilight said before she and Spike sped off. I then looked to Fluttershy.

“What would this Sunset girl want with some crown, anyway?” I asked Fluttershy.

“It’s basically for the Fall Formal?” Fluttershy said to me. Confusing me for a bit.

“Fall Formal? What’s that? ” I asked when suddenly, the bell rings.

“Oh, no! I'm late for class!” Fluttershy said as her animals hopped back into her backpack before speeding off. Leaving me alone.

“Welp, I guess I should get a schedule.” I said before walking to the office.

Meanwhile

3rd Person POV

The hooded man was standing near a platform, a massive screen above him. His patience was clearly wearing thin as he still had no luck finding Dustin.

“Dammit! We’ve searched nearly a hundred worlds, twenty alternate timelines, and over thirty dimensions, but still no sign of him! Where is he?!” The man groaned in frustration, rubbing his temples to ward off an incoming headache.

Dustin's POV

Twilight and I arrived at the principal's door, and Twilight knocked.

"Come in. How may I help you?" A woman's voice called from the other side, and we walked in. When I laid eyes on the principal, I was shocked by how elegant she looked. She had a pale pink complexion, hair that was a mix of light blue, aqua green and lavender, her eyes were a purple color, she was dressed in a yellow blouse with purple pants and yellow heels.

"Um, uh... My name's Twilight Sparkle. And this is Dustin Miller." Twilight introduced us.

"We're new here, and we understand that a girl named Fluttershy found a crown this morning and gave it to you, correct?" Dustin said to Celestia, making her nod.

"Yes. I've had Vice Principal Luna put it somewhere for safekeeping. No idea how it ended up in the front lawn. Were you interested in running for Princess of the Fall Formal this year?" Principal Celestia asked Twilight.

"Uh, no. Not exactly. The truth is... Well, the truth is I... You see, the crown is actually... “Twilight stammered like an idiot before getting her wording back. “Princess of the Fall Formal?"

"Now that you mention it, Fluttershy said something about that earlier. Is that like a beauty pageant or something?" I asked with confusion, making Principal Celestia giggle.

"It's Canterlot High's big Fall dance." Principal Celestia said, making me wide eyed with a smile.

"Dance?" I asked. If there is one thing I'm known for in school, it’s cutting a rug.

"So, this Fall Formal is like the Grand Galloping Gala." Twilight asked the principal, who was just confused by her choice of words.

"Uh, Grand Galloping Gala?" Celestia asked, unfamiliar with such words. I was confused, but I decides to cover for Twilight, saving her the awkwardness.

"Uh... It was a big deal at our old school. Right, Twi?" I asked Twilight, who was co fused at first, but she quickly gets what I was saying and nods.

"And was there a princess?" Principal Celestia asked.

"Yes, but she wasn't exactly a student." Twilight said.

"Which was a shame, cause the prince was expecting a dance with the lucky gal." I said with a smile, making Twilight blush from what I said for some reason.

"Well, here at Canterlot High, the students select one of their peers to represent them. She receives her crown at the Fall Formal." Principal Celestia said to us.

"Wait. Earlier, you asked if Twilight was interested in running for Princess. Can anyone here run?" I asked Celestia, who just nods in response.

"Why yes. You just need to let the head of the Fall Formal planning committee know you'd like to be on the ballot. Was there anything else?" Celestia asked. Twilight and I looked at each other before looking to her and shook our heads.

"Not really, no." I said.

"Um, nope! That was it!" Twilight said.

"Well, if you do need anything else, my door is always open." Principal Celestia said.

"Thanks." I said as me and Twilight walked out and closed the door.

"Twilight, why didn't ya just tell her the crown was yours and ask for it back?" Spike whispered.

"Oh, I was going to, but imagine if one of them showed up in Equestria saying they came from a place filled with tall, fleshy, two-legged creatures with these? We'd think they were crazy!" Twilight whispered back.

"She's right there, pooch. The last thing we want is to look like idiots." I said to the dog named Spike, who nods.

"Hmm. You make a good point." Spike said, but then he and Twilight then looked at me in surprise. "Wait! You can understand me?" Spike asked in surprise.

"Yeah. At least now I know I'm not crazy." I said to Spike, then looked to Twilight. "And I take it that you're not just some new student, but a visitor from another realm, right?" I asked Twilight, who was shocked by my words.

"How in Celestia's name...." Twilight was about to ask, but I just raised a hand.

"I sorta figured it out. Plus, when I heard Spike here say something about your muzzle and you mentioned something about this grand galloping gala, I immediately figured that you were not human, but something more animalistic." I said to Twilight, who lets out a sigh.

"Well, you're not wring. I am a pony from the land of Equestria. And hu-what now?" Twilight asked that last part out of confusion.

"Human. We tall, fleshy, two-legged creatures are called humans. But that's not important right now. We gotta worry about getting this crown of yours back. But I'm starting to think that thing is no ordinary crown." I said with a raised brow.

"No, it's not. It's one of six magical artifacts called the Elements of Harmony." Twilight said, interesting me. With a name like that, I figured there’ going to be some ensuing trouble ahead.

"With something named an "Element of harmony", I guarantee that means trouble if it gets in the wrong hands." I said, and Twilight nods with agreement.

"You are correct. Looks like if I want my crown back, I'll have to become Princess of the Canterlot High Fall Formal. So that's what I'm gonna do!" Twilight said, determination in her tone.

"And how exactly do you plan on doing that?" Spike asked Twilight, who seemed to lose her confidence.

"I have no idea!" Twilight said, feeling like an idiot for not coming up with a plan.

"Well, luckily for you, I'm here to help ya out." I said with a smirk.

"Really?" Twilight asked me.

"You bet. I'm willing to help anybody." I said to Twilight, who smiles at my kindness. Spike then notices the Digitrix on my wrist.

"Hey. What's that thing?" Spike asked, making me look towards the Digitrix.
I figured I should tell them about myself.

"Ok, what I'm about to tell you is going to sound pretty crazy." I said to Twilight, who just gave me her undivided attention.

"Try me." Twilight said simply, and I rubbed the back of my head, not knowing where to start.

"Alright, but I hope you don't mind long and drawn out. There's a lot of plot to cover?" I said when suddenly, Twilight slaps me across the face.

"Ow! Why'd you do that!?" I asked in pain.

"You said something about plots, pervert!" Twilight said, confusing for a bit. But I then immediately figured out what she meant.

"Oooh, nonono, I was not talking about your rump, I meant the stuff about what I'm about to tell you." I said, and Twilight then felt bad about slapping me.

"Oooohh. Sorry about that." Twilight said bashfully, but I just waved it off.

"No no. It's fine. I'll explain on the way. We should get going." I said as we were off to find get Twilight signed up.

Later

Twilight and I were in the hallway, and I told her about my backstory. She told me that she is a newly appointed princess in a land called Equestria, which was inhabited by talking ponies and other magical creatures. After she told me everything about herself, I was telling her about myself before coming here. She was shocked by everything I've mentioned to her. She was shocked to hear of everything I mentioned

"So, you say that your parents built a device that can turn you into beings made of data?" Twilight asked with both curiosity and intrigue.

"Yeah. As weird as it sounds." I said as Twilight looked to my Digitrix in fascination. Me and twilight then stopped at a door.

“Well, here’s our class. I still can’t believe we have the same schedules.” I said to Twilight, who just nods in agreement.

“Yeah. A bit strange.” Twilight said before I opened the door for her.

"After you, milady." I said with a slight bow, making Twilight giggle.

"Why thank you, kind gentlecolt." Twilight said as we both walked into the classroom. We took our respective seats, and now we’re just waiting for the teacher, didn’t take too long the teacher to arrive. But what I saw next was a shocked me. Actually, I should say “who” I saw next socked. I saw Allister, but he was dressed in a khaki business suit instead of his usual attire.

“Allister?” I asked in shock, making Twilight and the rest of the students look towards me in confusion.

“Ah. Dustin. Good to see you, my boy. And miss Sparkle, I must say it’s been a while.” Allister said, this time shocking Twilight as well.

“Wait! How do you know my name?” Twilight asked in shock, further confusing the other students.

“Come now. Surely you two remember a close family friend, right?” Allister said to us. I noticed he was ushering me to play along, so I just went with it.

“Uh…yeah. Yeah, of course we do.” I said, making Twilight look to m in confusion. “Just play along, Twi.” I whispered to Twilight, and she nodded.

“Yeah. Sorry I didn’t recognize you. It’s just been so long.” Twilight said, the other students muttered to each other in confusion, not knowing what was going on.

“Alright, alright. Settle down everybody. Now before anything else, we should welcome our new students.” Allister said before looking to me and Twilight, motioning us to walk to the front. Me and Twilight both headed to the front of the class.

“Hey, folks. Name’s Dustin Miller.” I said with a two-finger salute, albeit a bit bashfully.

“And I’m Twilight Sparkle.” Twilight said, but the class didn’t seem to care that much.

“So, take your seats and we’ll get things started.” Allister said as me and Twilight both went back to our seats.

OST - Code Lyoko Theme Song (metal remix) by Red Mertah

Me and Twilight were in the cafeteria with Fluttershy. Twilight grabbed a veggie burger while I grabbed a slice of cheese pizza. We then notice Fluttershy was ahead of Twilight.

"Well, twice in one day." I said, Fluttershy looked behind and saw me and Twilight.

"Hey guys." Fluttershy said to us.

“I know we've just met, but I was wondering if you might be able to help me with something.” Twilight asked Fluttershy.

“Of course!” Fluttershy said with a smile.

“I've decided to run for Princess of the Fall Formal, and–“ Twilight said, but Fluttershy then dropped a bowl of fruit salad out of shock, the contents of which got onto Twilight's shirt.

"Uh oh." I said, grabbing some napkins to clean the little mess.

“Oh! Oh, gosh! Sorry. It's just, oh, running for Fall Formal Princess is a really bad idea.” Fluttershy said with concern. But I knew why Fluttershy thought so.

“Let me guess. It’s because of Sunset Shimmer, right?” I asked, to which Fluttershy nodded.

“Yes. Sunset Shimmer wants to be Fall Formal Princess, and when she wants something, she gets it! She'll make life awful for anyone who stands in her way. Just ask the girl who ran against her for Princess of the Spring Fling.” Fluttershy said as we went to a table.

“I have to try!” Twilight said with determination clear in her voice.

“Oh, I don't think you understand. You'd have to convince everyone here to vote for you instead of her: the athletes, the fashionistas, the dramas, the eco-kids, the techies, the rockers...” Flutterhsy said to us. This intel confused me, seriously what’s up with the names.

“Why is everypony…uh, everybody separated this way?” Twilight corrected herself.

“Maybe it was different at your old school, but at CHS, everybody sticks to their own kind. One thing that they do have in common is that they know Sunset Shimmer is gonna rule the school until we graduate.” Flutterhsy said, then noticed that I was seething in anger at what I've hears, and Twilight noticed my angered expression too.

“D-Dustin? Are you okay?” Twilight asked in concern.

“Let me get this straight. You mean to say that bacon headed hussy has such a tight grip on the whole school that she divided everybody?” I asked in a dangerously low tone, scaring Fluttershy and Twilight.
“Y-yes.” Fluttershy said in slight fear.

“Well, if she thinks she can get away with crap like that, then she must be on some kind of drugs. Because that kinda crap does not fly with me, whatsoever!” I said, trying to keep my cool, key word "trying". Thankfully, Twilight rubbed my back to calm me, which worked like a charm. Twilight then thought it be best to change the subject.

“So, uh, where would we find the head of the party planning committee?” Twilight asked

In the Gymnasium

Me, and Twilight and Spike enter the gym, which was pretty big and even had a large stage. Suddenly, streamers came falling.

“Fluttershy said she'd probably be in here.” Twilight said to me and Spike.

“Incoming!” A voice called out an abnormally large balloon comes at the us. Twilight dodges, but I was unlucky enough to be hit by the balloon, being knocked flat on my ass.

"Ugh...god damn!" I said, coughing lightly.

"Oh my gosh. Are you okay?" Twilight asked, but I got up, dusting myself off.

"Meh, I've suffered worse. No worries." I said as we then see a girl with puffy hot pink hair, lighter pink skin, blue eyes, dressed in a white shirt with a heart shape in the middle, a magenta skier with a symbol of three balloons on it, and had blue boots with pink bows.

“Well. That must be her.” I said as we walked to her.

“Hi, my name's Twilight Sparkle and... Pinkie Pie?” Twilight asked as the balloon pinkie had deflates.

“Are you psychic?!” Pinkie asked Twilight, confusing the purple girl.

“Uh, no. I don't think so. Unless of course that's something you can do here.” Twilight said with confusion.

“Somebody told us about you. Plus, with a name like Pinkie Pie, it’s pretty obvious.” I said with a shrug.

“Fluttershy said this is where I'd find the head of the Fall Formal planning committee.” Twilight said.

“Fluttershy, huh? Don't let the whole "shy" thing fool you. She can be a real meanie.” Pinkie said, confusing the two.

"Huh? She doesn't look like a bad guy to me." I said with confusion.

“You two aren't friends?” Twilight asked with confusion.

“Waited a bit to get your name on the ballot, huh? Dance is day after tomorrow.” Pinkie said before inflating another balloon.

“We’re brand new here.” Twilight said.

“Oooh! I thought you two didn't look familiar. Though, now that I'm really lookin' at you...” Pinkie said before walking to Twilight. “Do you have a twin sister who lives in the city, has a pet dog named Spike that looks just like that one?” Pinkie said to Twilight.

'She has a strange sense of logic.' I thought, not sure if this girl is on a sugar rush, plain weird or just straight up bat shit crazy.

“Uh, maybe?” Twilight said in confusion.

“Thought so. Anyhoo, just need to fill this out and you are officially up for the coveted Princess of the Fall Formal crown.” Pinkie said as she hands a pen and clipboard. Twilight writes her signature before handing them back to Pinkie.

“Wow! You have really bad handwriting. It's like you've never held a pen before.” Pinkie said as Twilight nervously laughs.

"Eh, yeah. Weird, huh?" I said when suddenly, a tan skinned girl with blonde hair in a ponytail, green eyes, freckles on her face, wearing a green and white long-sleeve shirt with an apple in the center, a blue jean skirt, a cowboy hat on her head and a pair of cowboy boots. She carried a crate full of bottles filled with something.

“Somebody order a dozen cases of fizzy apple cider?” The girl asked with a southern drawl.

“Oh! Oh! Me, me-me-me, me, yeah, ha-ha, me!” Pinkie said like a kindergartner.

"Pfft! Too cute." I muttered, admiring Pinkie's energetic and childish demeanor.

“Can you bring in the rest?" The country girl asked as a young man with pink skin, yellowish orange hair, freckles, clad in a red vest, white shirt underneath and blue jeans. The country girl then notices me and Twilight.

“Hey, I know you.” The girl said, confusing us both.

“Us?” I asked in confusion while pointing at myself.

“You do?” Twilight asked, just as confused.

“Sure. You're the new guys who gave Sunset Shimmer the what for today.” The girl said as she pops open one of the bottles and gulps the cider.

“Only been here for a day and already we have a reputation, eh?” I said bashfully.

“Twilight Sparkle here is gonna run against Sunset Shimmer for Princess of the Fall Formal.” Pinkie said, making the girl do a spit take.

“I'd think twice about that. Oh, sure, she'll probably approach you all friendly like...” as she grabbed a heart shape balloon and draws Sunset’s face and Pinkie inflates a yellow balloon and the country girl draws Twilight’s face on it.

“I sure am lookin' forward to some friendly competition.” The girl said, faking Sunset Shimmer's voice “That's so good to hear.” She said now faking Twilight’s voice. “But then, here comes the backstabbin'.” She said as she popped the balloon with Twilight face.

“About the only girl in this school you can trust less than Sunset Shimmer is Rainbow Dash.” The girl said.

“Rainbow who?” Dustin asked with confusion.

“She's the captain of, like, every team at Canterlot High.” Pinkie said, bouncing on a big balloon she inflated. I just looked to the pink girl, smiling at her energetic and child-like personality.

“She's also the captain of sayin' she's gonna do somethin' for ya, and then turnin' around and not even botherin' to show up.” The country girl said, making me doubt her words. Not that I thought she was lying, but that her words were not accurate.

“Somehow, I doubt that.” I said to myself.

“Thanks for the advice, Applejack, but this is something I really need to do.” Twilight said to the girl, named Applejack.

“Huh, suit yourself. Hey, how'd you know my name is Applejack?” Applejack asked, making Twilight realize her mistake.

“Um…” Twilight stuttered, trying to come up with an answer, but I answered for her.

“Well, with the apple motif on your clothing, I’d say it would be obvious.” I said before looking at the pink skinned boy.

“And you? Let’s see. Pinkish red skin, tall stature, red vest, I would say your name is… Big Red?” I asked, guessing his name.

“Nnnope.” The young man said.

“Close though. His name is Big McIntosh.” Applejack said.

“Ah.” I just simply said with a nod as Pinkie ran to me at impossible speed.

"Ooh. You can guess a person's name by appearance?" Pinkie asked me in her usual hyperactive way.

"Uh... I guess." I said with a shrug.

“Well, it sure was nice meeting you both. I'm sure we'll be seeing you around.” Twilight said as she and I were about to leave.

"That one's tryin' to hide a secret, but I am totally on to her. She's psychic!” Pinkie said, whispering the last bit to Applejack.

Suddenly, Sunset Shimmer walked in, and with two boys beside her. One was a chubby boy with teal skin, orange hair, buck teeth, dressed in a black shirt and blue jeans. The other was lanky with tan skin, green hair, dressed in a green jacket and khaki pants.

“Oh god! Speak of the devil, and she shall appear.” I said in anger at the sight of Sunset.

“This looks terrible! There should be more streamers near the stage and fewer balloons.” Sunset said, popping a balloon.

“Yeah, streamers!” The blue boy grabbed a streamer.

“And fewer balloons!” the tan boy tried to pop a big yellow balloon, only to fall. Sunset then grabbed one of the bottles Applejack carried.

“Fizzy apple cider? Ugh! This is my coronation, not a hoedown.” Sunset said as she threw a bottle away in the trash bin out of disgust.

“Well, now, it ain't necessarily gonna be your coronation this time around.” Applejack said.

“Oh, is that so? You country folk really aren't that bright. Must be why the other students say such awful things about you.” Sunset insulted as she covered Applejacks face with her hat.

“God dammit! That’s it!” I growled as I walked towards Sunset, but Twilight grabbed my arm to stop me.

“Dustin, please calm yourself.” Twilight said, clearly trying to keep me from doing something stupid.

“And let her get away with this, not a snowball's chance in hell!” I said, freeing myself from Twilight’s grasp.

“Obviously, it's gonna be my coronation. I'm running unopposed.” Sunset said with a hint of pride.

“That’s what you think, princess!” I said, catching everyone’s attention, even Susnet’s.

“Oh, it’s you! What do you want?” Sunset Shimmer said rather rudely.

“I hear talk that you have divided every single person here in this school!” Dustin said, only for Sunset to scoff.

“Yeah, so what?” Sunset said, but I was not backing down.

“Well, I got news for you, bacon head! You think I’ll just sit idly while you make the lives of the students here a living hell? Hell no!” I said with my hands on my hips.

“You want us to deal with this punk for ya?” The skinny boy said.

“Oh yeah, like you can kick my ass, Slim Jim!” I growled in anger, as the skinny boy growled and glared to me.

“No, Snails! We’ve got better things to do! This loser is nothing but a poser! Let’s go!” Sunset said before she turned to walk away. I then chuckled at this, seeing right through her.

“Oh, I see! You’re nothing more than a coward.” I said, making the Sunset stop in her tracks and look at Dustin angrily.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Sunset asked me, her anger rose dangerously high.

“You claim to be a queen bee here, but in truth, you rely on your two stooges here to do your own dirty work. That proves that you are just a coward propped up behind an army of cards. And all it takes is one fell swoop to bring down your entire defenses. And with butterball and lanky shielding ya, that would be way too easy.” I taunted Sunset with smirk as Pinkie, Applejack, Big McIntosh and Twilight gasped at this. Nobody but me has ever had the balls to stand up to somebody like Sunset, let alone talk smack to her.

“Truth hurts, doesn’t it?” I said to Sunset, who was so angry at this point that she could see red.

“YOU’RE DEAD!” Sunset yelled as she ran towards me and went to deliver a punch, but I quickly dodged out of the way.

“Ooh, so close. Care to try again?” I taunted Sunset as she went to deliver another punch, only for me to dodge again. “I can do this all day, princess! Even with both hands behind my back.” I said as I held both hands behind his back. “So watcha watin’ for? Belt away!”

And with that, Sunset went to deliver everything she had at me. Every punch, kick, swoop, anything she could muster at me, I would easily dodge, never moving my hands from behind my back. The others just watched with a mix of both amazement and shock.

“You guys seein’ this?” Applejack asked.

"Eeyup." Big Mac said with a nod.

"Incredible." Twilight said as she watched me dodge everything Sunset tried throw at me.

“Cool!” Pinkie said while she recorded the whole scene with her phone.

“Whoa! Dustin has got skill!” Spike said, watching the whole scene with wide eyes. After a minute of trying and failing to hit me, Sunset was exhausted, panting and sweating. That whole minute, Sunset didn’t lay as much as a dent on me. I just folded his arms to his chest and blew a small puff as Sunset, knocking her on her rear.

“How the mighty have fallen.” I said with a smirk before turning to walk away. But Sunset got up, still panting, angrier than before now.

“Don’t think for a second that I’ll let you get away with this!” Said Sunset, getting my attention. “I will get you for this! And when I do, I promise you, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE HELL!” Sunset said in pure rage, but I was unfazed by her outburst.

“Whatever you say, bacon head.” I said before taking my leave, and Twilight walked away.

“He thinks he can take me down, he’s sadly mistaken. I’m a ruler with no equal!” Sunset growled in fury.

“Not this time. The new girl just signed up!” Pinkie said, surprising Sunset.

“What?!” Sunset asked in disbelief.

“I know. Her handwriting is really bad.” Pinkie said as she showed Sunset Twilight’s bad handwriting. Sunset snatched the clipboard from Pinkie and examined it.

“Where is this Twilight Sparkle?” Sunset said to herself before turning to Applejack and Pinkie Pie “I'm looking forward to meeting the competition!” Sunset said before she walked away, her two goons following her.

“Snips, Snails, I want you two to keep an eye on this guy Twilight is with. See if you guys can find any weakness bout him.” Sunset said to her goons.

“You got it!” Both boys said to her before running off.

3rd Person POV

Dustin was walking about in the soccer field, figuring he could use some fresh air.

"Ah. Nice day." Dustin sighed in contempt, enjoying the nice warm weather.

While he wasn't looking however, Snips and Snails were watching him while keeping themselves well hidden from view. They had their phones out, but had a board look on their faces.

"Man. How long has he been standing there?" Snips asked.

"Don't know. But I'm slowly dying of boredom here." Snips said with a yawn.

Dustin was sitting on a bench when heard a scream.

“Help!” A girl cried out. Dustin got up and ran to the source.

“Looks like our wait is over. Let’s move.” Snips said as he and Snails followed him.

When Dustin got to the destination, he saw something that made his blood boil three girls were cornered by a group of thugs. The first had yellow skin, red hair with a pink bow and orange eyes, the second had white skin, curly hair with a mix of dark lavender and light lavender and had green eyes, and the third had orange skin, magenta eyes and short, messy cerise hair.

The thugs that cornered them were not armed, thankfully, but they looked like they were up to no good.

“Well, well, well. Look what we got here, boys. Three little brats.” The leader of the gang chuckled at the three, who were scared out of their wits. Dustin growled at the site and went to turn on his Digitrix.

“Picking on a bunch of kids, huh? Well, let’s see how you punks like this!” Dustin said before tapping onto the Digitrix’s screen, causing his body to be surrounded by a ring of what looks like strangely colored Bar Code surrounded him, making an egg-shaped dome as his skin began to glow so his entire body was now a shining silhouette of white light. Two rectangular 'plates' seemed to appear out of nowhere and they surrounded Dustin's glowing form, one in front of him and the other behind him, both standing vertical before moved towards each other, squashing around Dustin as if he was in a press mold.

A strange colored image of a crocodilian creature then appeared out of nowhere and fused onto his body before the 'mold' suddenly exploded and Dustin's new form fell through the air and landed on a small square platform with the Digitrix Symbol before releasing a bellowing roar.

He resembled a massive crocodile-like creature with spikes on its back, a long tail tipped with a blade-like barb, and the Digitrix symbol appearing on his right shoulder.

"INDESTRUCTILE!" Dustin roared in a deep bellowing voice as the 'egg' of Data surrounding him then dissipated revealing the new being to the world.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Indestructile
Species: Lacertian
Indestructile is a behemoth of a creature to face. Created from the data of SCP-682 of the SCP Wiki, this creature is practically indestructible. He can withstanding temperatures from extreme hot to extreme cold, crushing pressures up to 1,950,626 psi, he can survive in the vacuum of space, he can even withstand intense radiation greater than the combined amount of all nuclear weaponry in existence and sustain no injuries. He can also project streams of a corrosive substance that can eat away reinforced steel in a matter of minutes, and the barb on his tail can puncture a whole through even the most impenetrable material.

Snips and Snails saw this and were just shocked by what they saw. Snips and Snails were recording the whole scene on video with his phone.

"Dude! You're seeing this too, right?" Snips asked.

"Oh yeah." Snails said with a nod.

“Heheh, looks like third time’s the charm after all.” The leader of the gang chuckled, but before they could approach the three, Dustin released a bellowing roar, catching their attention.

“Whoa! What the…” One of the thugs said in total fear.

“So, you punks like to pick on innocent kids, uh? Well, let’s see how you like this!” Dustin said before swinging his tail at one of the thugs, knocking him off his feet.

“I don’t know what the hell you are, but nobody messes with us!” The leader said before pulling out a pocketknife and running towards Dustin, trying to stab him, only for the blade of the knife to break apart.

"Huh, no wander this guy is called Indestructible!" Dustin said before looking to the thug, who was shaking like a leaf. He glared at the thug and growled, scaring the thug senseless.

“Boys, let’s get the hell out of here!” The thug said as he and his gang ran off, screaming like a bunch of girls. Dustin smiled in satisfaction at the sight.

“Not so tuff now, are ya?” Dustin said before looking to the three, who were just too shocked to respond. “You little ladies alright?” Dustin asked the three, who just nod in a mix of both shock and fear.

“Girls, I may look scary, but I promise I‘m not gonna hurt ya.” Dustin said to the three, who seemed to calm down.

“Uh…thank ya…mister?” The red-haired girl asked with a country drawl present in her tone.

“Indestructile, at your service.” Dustin said with a bow. Suddenly, the Digitrix symbol started to beep. “Uh o. Sorry girls, gotta cut this short.” Dustin said before running off, confusing the three girls. Dustin ran back to the field before changing back to human.

“Phew. Thankfully, nobody was around to see that.” Dustin said as the bell suddenly rang. “Oh boy. Better hurry to my next class.” Dustin ran back into the school. Snips and Snails were still shocked at what they just saw.

"You think we should report this to Sunset?" Snails asked.

"Yeah. I think she should see this." Snips nodded as they went back inside.

Dustin’s POV

I was walking through the hallway and then I noticed Twilight.

“Yo, Twi.” I said to Twilight, catching her attention.

“Dustin. There you are. Where were you” Twilght asked.

“Oh, just out.” I said with a shrug, but then I felt somebody was near us.

“Can't believe I didn't recognize you earlier. Shoulda known Princess Celestia would send her prized pupil here after my crown, and her little dog, too.” Sunset said approaching Twilight.

“Oh great! Don’t know when to step off, do you!” Dustin growled.

“It's my crown!” Twilight said to Sunset.

“Whatever. This is just a minor setback for me. You don't know the first thing about this place, and I already rule it.” Sunset said with a smirk.

“Yeah, well if that is the case, then why do you even need Twilight’s crown? From what Twilight told me, you went to an awful lot of trouble to switch it with the one that belongs here.” I asked Sunset, who looks to me with her usual smug grin.

“I see your little boy toy here is involved, too. Well, here’s a pop quiz: what happens when you bring an Element of Harmony into an alternate world?” Sunset asked, leaving Twilight and unable to answer. “You don't know? Seriously?” Sunset laughed. “And you're supposed to be Princess Celestia's star student? Then again, what were the chances she'd find somepony as bright as me to take under her wing after I decided to leave Equestria? Bit embarrassing that you were the best she could do.” Sunset said as Spike began to growl. “Oh, and I'd keep an eye on your mutt. Hate for him to be... taken away from you.” Sunset said, eyeing at Spike.

“Is that a threat?” Spike asked.

“Oh, of course not.” Sunset retorted.

“Better leave him out of this!” Dustin growled angrily.

“But I'd cut down on the chatter if I were you. Don't want everyone to know you three don't belong here, now would you? You wanna be a princess here? Please. You don't know the first thing about fitting in.” Sunset said before looking at me. “And don’t think I’ve forgotten about you, Dustin! I will make you suffer for the humiliation you put me through earlier.” Sunset said before walking away.

“I’ll be looking forward to it!” I growled angrily as he and Twilight walked off.

3rd POV

Sunset was walking through the halls when she notices Snips and Snails approach.

“I want you to follow her. Bring me something I can use just like I did with that last girl who thought she could challenge me." Sunset said to her two goons.

"You got it, Sunset Shimmer." Snips said with a salute.

"When the crown and its power are mine, Twilight Sparkle will be sorry she ever set hoof into this world. Not that she would've been much safer if she'd stayed in Equestria." Sunset said with an evil smile.

"Yeah, in Equestria." Snails said, typical henchmen stuff.

"And one more thing. Where you able to gather anything from that Dustin boy?" Sunset asked her two goons.

"Yeah. But you won't believe what we're about to show you." Snails said as he and Snips showed her the footage they got. Sunset was shocked at what she saw.

"No way! This...Please tell me this isn't edited." Sunset said in total shock at what she was shown.

"Imagine our shock when we saw this." Snips said, still in total disbelief.

The gears in Sunset's head suddenly began to turn, thinking of some evil ideas.

"So, what should we do? Post this online?" Snails asked Sunset, who seemed to chuckle evilly.

Meanwhile

The hooded figure sat in his chair, still trying to find the location of both Dustin and the Digitrix, but so far, no luck. Suddenly, a screen appeared beside him.

“Sir! Splendid news! We’ve found the location of Dustin and the Digitrix.” The figure said, surprising the man.

“What?! Where?” The man demanded as his subordinate showed him the coordinates.

“During our search, we’ve detected a strange energy signal. Upon examination, we’ve found it came from the Digitrix. As for its current location, we’ve tracked it to an educational center called Canterlot High.” The figure said, and the hooded man was pleased with the intel.

“Also, a video concerning the Digitrix and its user has just been posted in that world. I think you should take a look.” The figure said as the screen showed the footage Snips and Snails have captured earlier. He was amazed by what he saw, shocked, but amazed.

“Excellent.” The man said, chuckling evilly at this reveal before tapping a button on the right arm of his chair, causing another screen to appear, showing another hooded figure.

“You called, master Ginzo?” The figure said to the now named Ginzo.

“Yes. Is our newest creation ready?” Ginzo asked his subordinate, who just nods.

“Yes, sir.” The figure said, Ginzo chuckled at this.

“Excellent, prepare to send it to these coordinates.” Ginzo said, showing his subordinate the locations, he received.

“But sir, its features and weapon systems are still in the experimental stages.” The figure said with a bit of worry.

“They’ll be more than enough to take down Dustin Miller and retrieve the Digitrix. Now send it.” Ginzo said, the subordinate bowed his head.

“As you command, sir.” The figure said, albeit a bit hesitantly before signing off.

“And you! Send an Overseer to keep full surveillance on him 24/7.” Ginzo said to the previous minion.

“Yes sir. But shouldn’t we strike and retrieve the Digitrix now?” The minion said, only for Ginzo to chuckle.

“We will strike when the time is right. What information do you have on this school?” Ginzo asked his minion.

“Well, the entire majority of students are divided by one particular student.” The figure said before displaying an image of Sunset Shimmer. “Her name is Sunset Shimmer.”

Ginzo eyes at this image, sensing something from the sight of Sunset. He found some interest in this girl.

“I see. What information do you have on this child?” Ginzo said in total interest.

“From her school records, we managed to gather that she is a queen bee of the school. In fact, her grip on the school is so tight that every other student present at the facility gives her a wide birth.” The figure said, fascinating Ginzo even more.

‘Incredible. If this one child has such an influence on the entire school board, then perhaps she could be useful for our cause.’ Ginzo thought with utter fascination. “Excellent work. You will be rewarded handsomely for your diligence. Dismissed.”

“Thank you, sir.” The figure said before signing off. Ginzo chuckled evilly, knowing that everything is starting to go well for him.

With Dustin and Twilight
Dustin’s POV

Me and Twilight were at a vending machine that was filled with snacks, drinks, and even fruit weirdly enough. Twilight was trying to get a snack from the vending machine, but had no luck. So, I decided to help pout.

“Here, allow me.” I said as I delivered a few pats and kicks, causing an apple and a bag of chips to land. I reached in and grabbed them. “Alright. A bag of chips for me, and an apple for the lovely lady.” I presented the apple to Twilight, making said girl laugh at my gesture.

“Why thank you. How did you even do that, anyway?” Twilight said, accepting the apple.

“Years of practice, my friend.” I said before opening the bag. We then notice a girl with blue skin, purple eyes and silvery white hair.

“Excuse me. The Great and Powerful Trixie... needs some peanut butter crackers.” The girl named Trixie spoke in third person before inserting a coin into the machine’s coin slot, making it dispense the item she needed. “Voilà!” Trixie said as she grabbed her snack and walked off.

“Sunset Shimmer is right. I don't know the first thing about this place. If I'm gonna really fit in and win votes, we need to do some research.” Twilight sighed said with a sigh.

“Well, lucky for you, I’m here. And what better way to start than the library.” I said, pointing to the library, and to which Twilight ran into. “Wow. Quite the bookworm, ain’t she?” I said to myself before walking in.

Twilight was sitting at a computer desk, wandering how the computer works. Then she lifts the monitor out of curiosity, but I gently took the computer and gently placed it back to its place.

“Careful with that, Twi. Why don’t I show you how this thing works.” I said before pressing a few buttons. Twilight was a quick learner, thank god for that.

“So, I just push the letters here, and then the words and moving pictures will come up here?” Twilight asked me with intrigue.

“You got. I’ll fetch some books for ya.” I said before heading to a few bookshelves. I then heard some loud music, and I mean loud enough to shatter glass. I look to see the three girls from earlier, who were the one playing the music. Thankfully, the librarian shut off the music.

“Uh, girls, what are you doing?” The librarian asked the trio.

“We're just seeing how many hits our new music video has gotten.” The lavender haired girl said before the music played again, thankfully I went in to shut it off.

“Uh, kids, I hate to burst your bubbles, but that’s not what the computers are for.” I said to the three girls.

“Absolutely right. The school computers are for research purposes only.” The librarian said before confiscating the speaker and walked off. The three looked kinda down.

“It's just as well, y'all. Some of the comments about our song were really awful. "Epic fail"... "Funniest thing I've ever seen"?!” The country girl said, reading through the video’s commentary.

“Funniest thing they've ever seen, huh?” The lavender haired girl said before the three went off.

“Uh, kids, I don't know that that's what you should take from...” I said before noticing Sunset’s two goons hidden, spying on Twilight. They had their phones out, so obviously they were doing Sunset’s dirty business. I was angry at this, so I hid behind a nearby bookshelf and dialed up my Digitrix.

I transformed into a shadowy figure with glowing purple eyes that could stare straight into somebody’s soul, a wide sharp-toothed grin that could even make the Cheshire cat green in envy, and the Digitrix symbol visible on my chest.

"FREAKSHOW!" I exclaimed in a ghastly voice.

(Transformation Index)
Name: Freakshow
Species: Erebonite
Made from data from the Deep Web and online horror media, this ghastly fiend is truly the stuff of nightmares. A shadow and a specter rolled into one, Freakshow is capable of invisibility, intangibility, shapeshifting, and can even possess living things by melding with their shadows. Definitely another reason to fear the dark. However, this shadowy phantom has some weaknesses, one of which his aversion to sunlight, as even a single ray can cause him tremendous pain. Regardless, once you see Freakshow, expect the scare of a lifetime.

“Ugh. This guy even freaks me out.” I said before merging with the shadows to reach to the two boys. Once I reached them, I decided to surprise them. I emerged from the shadows behind the boys, who thankfully paid no attention to me. I then shaped my arms into tendrils before wrapping them and covering their mouths, preventing them from screaming. I then turned invisible before moving out of the library and into the hallway before becoming visible again.

“You little rascals thought I wouldn’t notice you, huh? I bet Sunset Shimmer sent you two to do her dirty work.” I said to the two boys, who were so scared out of their minds they could wet themselves. I then willed two more tendrils to snatch their phones.

“I shall delete the footage you two urchins recorded.” Said with a few presses of some buttons, deleting any and all footage they’ve caught before looking at the two with a grin. “And I think I’ll leave a message for your boss.” I said with a chuckle, scaring the two boys even more now.

With Sunset Shimmer
3rd POV

Sunset was walking through the halls when she noticed Snips and Snails walking towards her, fear visible on their faces.

“So…scary…” Snips said before he and Snails fell to the ground, in front of Sunset. She then noticed a letter taped to Snail’s back, which she picked up and read it.

Sunset, I caught your little rats snooping around and let me tell you something. Whatever you have planned, I guarantee it will not work. Sincerely, Dustin.

After Sunset read the letter, Sunset just growled in anger before crumbling it up and throwing it across the room.

With Dustin and Twilight
Dustin’s POV

Dustin had brought Twilight the books he could find, until the PA system sounded off.

“The library will be closing in five minutes.” The voice on the PA system called off.

“I hadn't even thought about where we're gonna sleep tonight!” Twilight said with a yawn. I honestly haven’t thought about that.

“Thankfully, I have a solution.” Allister said, startling me and Twilight.

“GAH! Allister? When in god’s name did you get here?” I said in shock.

“Just now my boy.” Allister said with a smile.

Later

Me, Twilight, Spike and Allister were standing in front of a decent looking two floor building.

“I managed to find ourselves a roof over our heads. No need to thank me.” Allister said as he opened the door, motioning us to enter. “Please wipe your feet before entering.” Allister said to us, to which we just did before entering.

The place was nice, and I mean really nice. The place was tidy, well furnished, no signs of any dust present, the place was spotless.

“Swanky.” I said with a wolf whistle while Twilight released Spike from her backpack.

“So, how did your research go?” Spike asked Twilight, who fished through her backpack and brought out what looks like a yearbook.

“I found this book. It's called a yearbook. It seems to be something they use to keep a record of things that have happened at the school. Look. That's Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, and I'm gonna bet the girl on the far right is Rarity.” Twilight said as she opened the book up. I look to see the contents in it.

“There's a Rarity here!?” Spike said in excitement, making me look at him with confusion. “Uh, I mean, uh... interesting photo.” Spike corrected himself, but it didn’t take too long too figure out why Spike went ecstatic at the mention of this Rarity girl.

“Oh? I take it a certain pup is love struck with Rarity.” I said to Spike, who blushed red a bit. Twilight looked to me with a raised brow.

“How’d you know that?” Twilight asked me, to which I just shrugged.

“Come on. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out?” I said before looking at the picture of Rarity. “Wow. I must say she looks quite stunning. No wander Spike’s head over heels with her pony counterpart.” I said rather teasingly to Spike.

“Oh, trust me. Spike practically worships the ground she walks on.” Twilight said, joining on to the teasing, much to Spike’s dismay.

“This coming from the pony princess who’s smitten with a certain boy named Flash Sentry?” I said to Twilight, who now blushed red in embarrassment two.

“Ok you two. Play nice.” Allister said before picking up a phone and dialed some buttons before making the call. “Yes? I like to make a delivery.” Allister said before looking to us. “I’m ordering pizza tonight. Anything you two like?” Allister asked us.

“I’ll go for supreme. Twi?” I said, looking at Twi.

“I’ll just go for plain cheese.” Twilight said with a shrug.

“Alright. I’ll have a hand tossed Supreme, a hand-tossed cheese, and a pineapple and anchovy pizza with cheese crust. Alright. Thank you.” Allister said before hanging up. “Alright, pizza will be here in five minutes.” Allister sad before walking upstairs. I grabbed the yearbook and examined the pages Twilight examined earlier.

“It's interesting because they look like they're friends.” Twilight said with confusion.

“They do look like our friends. But I thought we'd figured that out already.” Spike said with a shrug.

“No, I mean... they look like they're friends with each other. But it doesn't seem like they're friends now.” Twilight said with more confusion.

“Meaning they had a falling out. And I bet Sunshit had some involvement.” I said, coming up with a new nick name for Sunset.

“You mean Sunset?” Twilight said to me, not getting what I meant.

“Yeah. A new nickname I made for her besides bacon head.” I said with a shrug, to which Twilight just nodded.

“Well, I have a strong feeling she had an involvement too.” Twilight said in agreement.

“I wouldn't put it past her either. But she wanted your crown 'cause she's planning on doing something even worse! If you're gonna stop her, you have to focus on making friends here. Can't worry about why these girls aren't friends anymore. Even if they do remind you of your Ponyville friends.” Spike said to Twilight.

“And I have a strong feeling the Syndicate are gonna get involved in this mess too.” I said it a shiver down my spine.

“How do you know?” Twilight asked me.

“Call it a gut feeling.” I said with a shrug.

3rd Person POV

While they weren’t looking, a small spherical drone was outside the window, spying on the two.

The footage was broadcasted to Ginzo’s lair, who was watching keenly.

“Looks like young Dustin has obtained an ally.” Ginzo said with mild intrigue.

“Should we dispose of her as well?” One of Ginzo’s followers spoke through the intercom.

“If she proves to be as big a threat, then yes. But for now, our primary target is Dustin.” Ginzo replied as he watched the footage presented to him.

“Well, be prepared to improvise. I get the feeling that she’s going to change the game, in a big way.” The minion said before signing off. Ginzo continued to stare at the footage the Overseer drone was broadcasting.

Your friendly neighborhood Sugar Spider

It was night-time in Canterlot city and Mrs. Cake was walking home from after a long day of work. But as she walked, she couldn’t help but feel like she’s being followed. She turned, but found nobody present. She just sighed and walked off.

But what she didn’t realize is that three of thugs were sneaking to her. And when her guard was down, one of them pinned her to the wall while the other two chuckled at the sight.

“Well, well, well. What’s a pretty thing like you doing out here alone?” One f the three thugs chuckled while Mrs. Cake was scared for her life.

“Alright lady, hand over the purse, and maybe we’ll let ya go.” The second thugs said, making Mrs. cake even more scared than before.

Meanwhile

Dustin was enjoying a stroll when he suddenly heard a scream for help.

“Uh oh. Somebody’s in trouble.” Dustin said as he ran to the spot where he heard the scream. When he arrived, he saw Mrs. Cake intimidated by the three thugs. Dustin felt his blood boiled at the sight.

“Ok, punks. Let's see how ya’ll like messing with Firefox.” Dustin said as he hid, turned on the Digitrix and tapped the screen. But he didn’t turn into Firefox. Instead, he transformed into what looked like a man-sized Sugar glider with four arms, four eyes, fangs jutting from the sides of his face and the membrane resembled a spider web.

“SUGAR SPIDER!” Dustin exclaimed in a high voice.

(Transformation Index)

Name: Sugar Spider

Species: Arachno Breviceps

This fluffy flier may seem cute, but to bad guys he's a real nightmare to face. With excellent eyesight, smell and hearing, the ability of gliding, and capable of shooting webs from the palms of his hands, Sugar Glider is one hyperactive beast you should be on the lookout for at night.

“Huh? Aw come on, I asked for Firefox. Oh well, I guess this one will do.” Dustin said as he climbed up the wall, much like a spider. Once he reached the rooftop of the building, he looked down to the scene, waiting for the right time to strike.

“Ok lady. I’ll say this one last time.” The thug said before pulling out a pocketknife. “Hand over the purse, or there’s gonna be some problems.” The thug threatened, now scaring Mrs. Cake.

“Okay, it’s go time!” Dustin said before he held his palm outward, shooting a string of webbing at the weapon before pulling out of the thug’s grasp.

“What the…” The thug asked before Dustin swooped down and pounced on the thug, knocking him out with a single punch.

“The heck is that thing?!” The second thug asked in shock.

“Don’t know, don’t care! Let’s skin that thing alive!” The third thugs said before he and his partner rushed towards Dustin, who only shot webbing at the two, trapping them thick layers of webbing before punching them, knocking them out too.

“That should keep you punks occupied till the cops arrive.” Dustin said before a groaning sound was heard. He turns to see the first thug wake up, but thankfully he webs him down, rendering him immobilize. “And stay down, punk!” Dustin said with a smug grin.

“Thank you for saving me.” Mrs. Cake said to Dustin, making him turn to her.

“No problem, ma’am. All in a day's work.” Dustin said, crossing his arms in satisfaction.

“Just who, or what, are you.” Mrs. Cake asked in curiosity.

“You know who I am.” Dustin said, confusing Mrs. Cake.

“I do?” Mrs. Cake asked with a confused look.

“It’s your friendly neighborhood Sugar Spider.” Dustin said before preparing to make an exit. “You best call the cops on these punks. If they ask, just tell them a brave bystander came in. Stay safe.” And with that, Dustin climbed onto the wall, leaving Mrs. Cake alone.

Author's Note

So, this one is dedicated to Spider Man, as well as a sort of homage to the legendary Stan Lee. To the founding father of superhero comics, rest in peace.

Also, Sugar Spider was a creation made by a high school friend of mine. So, this one goes out to hi.

And yes, I know this short os relatively brief compared to the other shorts, but I wanted to throw some action in.
