After discussing what to do outside of Fluttershy's house, the six other Rainbooms went to their homes to grab their gear to prepare for the worst. Donnie and Raph were on their way to the lair so Donnie could prepare some emergency equipment, and so they could recruit Karai and Shinigami. They're probably gonna need all the help they can get.

Sunset, who just finished grabbing some gear and her weapons, was about to head out the door. She stopped and looked back at her gaming area. She scoffed, remembering the nights Stripe would keep her up all night playing video games with the volume up. She now knows it was done on purpose, which made her feel more angry as she stepped out the door.

Pinkie Pie was in her room, gathering her ninja equipment and little jars of sprinkles she keeps in one of her drawers. After sticking the few jars in her hair, she turned around and started to walk out the room. She stopped when she felt a crunch under her foot. She looked down, lifted her foot and saw little crumbs of what was left of her gingerbread present for Maud. She scrunched her nose and quivered her eyes, promising to give justice not only for the present, but for Boulder too, remembering how he almost 'drowned' in a glass of water. She held her head up and marched out of the room.

Twilight rushed into her home and ran into her room. She grabbed some of her ninja equipment while Spike, who was napping, woke up and saw Twilight frantically gathering her things.

He yawned, stretched and rubbed one of his eyes before speaking. "Twilight, what's going on?"

"Sorry I can't explain everything into full detail, but to keep it short, Stripe and the other mogwais are in cocoons." Twilight quickly explained.

"Wait, what?!" Spike gasped. "A-And Gizmo?!"

"No." Twilight shook her head. "He's the only one who isn't in a cocoon. Apparently it's the result of them eating after midnight."

Spike's eyes widened when he heard this. "Whoa, if that's the case I'm definitely gonna stop having midnight snacks..!"

"So right now me and the other girls are getting our gear just in case..... something happens." Twilight puts it mildly.

Spike shook himself as he got out of his bed. "Okay, then i'll get my lucky squeaky toy and-"

Twilight immediately stopped him before he could finish. "No Spike. You're staying here."

"Wait, what? Why?" Spike asked.

"Because this might actually get dangerous. If the mogwais hatch into something more vericious, it's important you stay here where it's safe." Twilight explained after having gathered her equipment and her weapon.

"But-" Spike whimpered as Twilight heads towards her door.

"Sorry Spike, but you're staying here and that's final."

Twilight then left her room, shutting the door, leaving Spike to let out a huff before sitting back in his bed.

6:35pm....

It's been hours since everyone discovered the mogwais were in cocoons. Raph and Donnie were on their way back from New York with Karai and Shinigami, Leo, Mikey and Casey were camping out from Fluttershy's house along with some of the Rainbooms while the other half, mainly Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash were at home, taking care of some personal business before they meet up with the others. Meanwhile Fluttershy and April were inside in the living room, watching Fluttershy's door and anxiously waiting for something to happen while Zephyr hides out in his room.

Casey and Sunset came back to the group with hot chocolates to help keep everyone warm while they wait.

"Anything yet?" Sunset asked.

"No, still nothing." Leo replied.

"Same with Fugitoid." Twilight adds.

"Im still not sure if it's a good idea having Fugitoid watch his cocooned mogwai alone." Sunset sighed as she sipped her hot chocolate. "At least Fluttershy has April with her. And if you count Zephyr."

"No, definitely wouldn't." Casey quickly shook his head.

"Maybe one of us should go back to the school and keep watch with him?" Sunset suggested.

"I understand you're worried for him Sunset. We all are." Leo empathized. "But Fluttershy has five cocooned mogwais in her room right now. And if they hatch into something.... worse than what already are, we have to be there."

"He's right Sunset." Mikey nods. "Don't wanna repeat the same mistake the main character did in my comic."

Mikey holds up one of his Wrath of the Sprites comic, revealing some panels. "When she left her home to go to school, the evil Sprites escaped from their jars and terrorized the character's mom when she was working from home."

Hearing what happens in Mikey's comic wasn't comforting anyone, they just gave the comic looks before awkwardly sipping their hot chocolates. Soon enough, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Rarity finally showed up.

"Yo, there you three are." Casey greeted. "What took ya?"

"Well, I had to make sure everything in my house was done." Applejack explained as she took a hot chocolate, offered by Pinkie Pie. "And then we all had to make sure Applebloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo were safe and secure together at the house too. You know how those three get."

"Well, glad you three can- WHOA!" Sunset gasped, along with everyone.

They all quickly noticed Rarity's hair was messy and had scratches on her face. Casey was the first to speak up.

"Yo Rarity, what happened to you?"

Rarity sighed as she started to explain. "Well, after I discovered Opal was framed when my dress got destroyed, I've apologized and tried to make it up to her.... But so far she's not quite ready to forgive me..."

"Ouch. I don't blame the cat though." Mikey shrugged.

"Neither do I..." Rarity admitted.

Wanting to check on the two again, Leo pulls out his T-Phone and called April. "April, anything yet?"

"Nope, still quiet on our end..." April sighed.

"Alright...." Leo sighed too. "Well, you know what to do when something happens."

"Yep" April said before hanging up.

Inside the house, April and Fluttershy were sitting on the couch, watching the news on Fluttershy's phone.

"And just as you think no more damage can be done at the mall, a Christmas tree crashes through the glass ceiling in the middle area of the mall from seemingly out of nowhere." The news reporter says as footage of the Christmas tree on the ground was shown with glass scattered around it. And it shows the ceiling being covered with construction fabric to prevent snow from coming in.

"The construction workers say they found rockets wrapped around the Christmas tree. This could possibly be the reason the tree managed to crash through the ceiling glass, but that just raises more questions." The news reporter said.

Fluttershy, upon hearing this, slumped down on the couch, groaning in shame and embarrassment, causing April to empathetically pat her shoulder as Gizmo rested his head on her lap.

In Canterlot High, Fugitoid was in his classroom, keeping an eye on his cocooned mogwai. Like the ones in Fluttershy's house, the cocoon started spurring mist around it, giving the classroom an unsettling environment. He checked the clock to see it's almost reached 7:00pm, wondering if the cocoon will be hatching soon. He wondered to himself if he should've had someone stay with him just incase, but he quickly reassured himself he can handle it. But a shake immediately caught his attention, pulling him out of his thoughts. He looked at the cocoon and it began to move in a throbbing manner.

His digital eyes emote in surprise, immediately started dialing Leo's number, waiting for him to pick up.

Leo's T-Phone rang and he immediately answered, putting it on speaker for everyone to hear. "Hello? Fugitoid?"

"Leonardo, my Mogwai, i think it's hatching!" Fugitoid immediately got to the point.

"What?!" Leo gasped. "Are you sure?"

"Positive." Fugitoid confirmed. "It hasn't shown any activity till now."

"Casey, call April quick!" Leo told Casey.

Casey quickly pulled out his phone and dialed April’s number, which she quickly answered.

"Casey, what's happening?"

"Yo red, Fugitoid's mogwai is hatching!" He quickly explained.

"What?!" April gasped in the same reaction everyone else had.

"Hang tight Fugitoid, I'm coming to the school with a group!" Leo told the cyborg before hanging up.

"Sunset, you, me, Mikey, Applejack and Rainbow Dash are heading to the school. Everyone else, stay here and make sure Fluttershy and April are okay with their mogwais." Leo quickly explained.

"You got it Leo!" Casey gave a thumbs up.

"Be careful." Twilight pleaded.

Leo and his group quickly made their way to the high school while the others stood behind. Meanwhile inside the house, five of the cocoons began to shake and move aswell, before one splits open as fog spurs out of it. Soon the other four began to tear open too, fog spurring out of them too and they all illuminated a green light inside the cocoons. Gizmo, who just poked his head through the door, sees this happening as he frowned and quivered. He then saw Angel, who was quivering in the corner, watching the cocoons slowly hatch. That's when one of the cocoons had arms clawing out of it, as ooz drips down from the arms.

In the classroom, Fugitoid was watching the cocoon move around, being pushed by the mogwai inside, trying to claw it's way out. Soon enough, Fugitoid sees a tear in the cocoon as fog seems to spur out of it, and a green light illuminating from within it. Fugitoid then hears what sounds like a low, scratchy groaning noise, definitely sounding different than what the mogwai originally sounded like.

"Extraordinary." Fugitoid watched in awe as the cocoon began to tear open even more, oozing off the counter.

Fugitoid stepped closer, in hopes to see what was coming out of the cocoon. He as he got closer, he sees a little glimpse of what was in the cocoon, seeing a green texture from what looks like an arm. But before Fugitoid could get a better look, the cocoon suddenly jolts and fell off the counter, admittedly taking Fugitoid by surprise.

Fugitoid slowly and carefully walked behind the counter to see the cocoon on the floor, completely torn open, but nothing in it anymore. That's when he heard little footsteps running out from under the counter and moving under desks. Fugitoid quickly tried following the footsteps, only for it to move away from him again, pushing desks aside as it was grunting.

Back in Fluttershy's house, the two were discussing about Fugitoid's mogwai hatching, unaware that their mogwais were hatching too.

"Do you think Leo and the others will make it to the school..?" Fluttershy frowned.

"I hope so." April said, just feeling as worried.

Fluttershy then felt her leg being tugged. She looked down and saw Gizmo, tugging on her leg frantically and looking completely distraught.

"Gizmo? Gizmo what's the matter?" Fluttershy asked the little Mogwai, till she and April heard a noise coming through Fluttershy's room.

That's when both girls realize that the noise could be what they think it is. Both carefully walked towards Fluttershy's room, with April having her weapon in hand just incase. A lot more mist was coming out of her room, which made the two more tense than they already are.

Once they got close, they slowly push the door more open, their eyes widening at what they see. All the cocoons have completely hatched, and completely empty.

April flicked the light switch, but the light didn't turn on. That's when she sees little shards of glass on the floor. So the noise they heard was actually the room's light shattering.

The two kunoichis stepped inside the room cautiously, looking around the dark room, searching for the hatched mogwais. Fluttershy walked towards her closet, quivering and sweating. She grabbed the handle before swinging the door opened with her eyes shut. She slowly opens one eyelid and can see the closet was empty, only having her ninja gear inside. She then quickly grabbed her blow gun and a few darts, feeling like she's gonna need them.

April stepped towards Fluttershy's bed, her phone's light turned on in one hand and her tessen fan in the other. April inhaled deeply through her nose before bending down quickly and pointing the light under the bed. But to her relief, nothing was there. That's when she decides to call Casey, was too tensed and on edge to do so from the beginning.

Casey heard his phone and quickly answered. "Red?"

"Casey, they all hatched." April quickly informed.

"Wait, for real?!" Casey jolted up.

"Yes, they're hiding in Fluttershy's room somewhere." April explained, still looking around.

"Hang tight, the girls and I are coming!" Casey quickly puts his satch over his shoulder.

As Casey told April they were coming, the two girls suddenly heard scratching and scampering from behind. They quickly turned around and saw shadows moving towards the living room.

"Wait, they just left her room!"

"Wait what?" Casey gasped as he, Twilight, Rarity and Pinkie Pie ran towards Fluttershy's house.

That's when April and Fluttershy heard a crashing noise. They ran out the room, followed where the noise came from and gasped at what they find. They saw by the kitchen that the window was completely shattered as the cold breeze entered the kitchen. Then the front door swings open as Casey and the other Rainbooms ran inside.

"April, Fluttershy? What happened?" Twilight asked as they all see the shattered window.

"I-I think.... Stripe and the other mogwai just escaped..!" April stammered when delivering the news.

"What?!" They all said in shock.

"So those.... fiends are out there, roaming in Canterlot City?!" Rarity gasped.

"We gotta go after them!" Casey quickly suggested.

"But they could've split up! They could be anywhere!" Twilight points out.

"Which is why we need to be fast! We'll split up and take one part of the city." April explained.

They all nod as Fluttershy looked down in Gizmo in her arms. Not wanting him to possibly get hurt, she called out to her brother.

"Zephyr? Zephyr? Zephyr!"

Zephyr, who was cowering in his room, finally stepped out. Seeing more mist spur out of Fluttershy's room made him more nervous.

"Y-Yes sis?" Zephyr tried putting on a smile.

"The mogwais have hatched from their cocoons and escaped into the city. I need you to watch over Gizmo while me and my friends go search for them." Fluttershy explained to him.

Hearing this, Zephyr sighed in relief. "Oh good, so they're not in the house."

Fluttershy shot a look at him. "Zephyr Breeze!"

"R-Right, right, watch after the little fuzzball, got it, you can count on me~." Zephyr confidently agreed.

Fluttershy then looks down at Gizmo, giving him a soft look. "Okay Gizmo, me and the others are gonna look for Stripe and his group. So you'll be staying here with Zephyr till I get back."

Gizmo frowned as he gave a worried look to Fluttershy, making his little babbles. Fluttershy gave him a reassuring smile as she scratched his head.

"Don't worry, you'll be-." Fluttershy stopped herself from saying the word 'safe' to Gizmo, knowing full well who she's leaving him with, so she used a different word to describe the situation. "-Fine, with Zephyr. Hopefully i won't be long."

Gizmo still had his ears drooped, but slowly nodded to her words. Fluttershy nods to the others before they all ran out of the house. Gizmo let out sad babbles seeing Fluttershy leave, but that's when Zephyr rubbed Gizmo's head, roughly.

"Don't worry little dude. My sis and her friends got the whole situation taken care of, so we don't have to worry about dealing with your creepy little buddies."

But suddenly, the lights in the house shut off, being completely dark. Zephyr laughed nervously as he tugged on his collar.

"Hehe, i-im sure a fuse just blew out, no biggy."

But that possibility went away when he and Gizmo heard laughter. That's when ten pairs of red eyes loomed in the darkness behind Zephyr. He slowly turned around and his eyes shrunk with fear as he spots the eyes. And before he could react, the five figures lunged at him, causing Zephyr to scream in horror as he was attacked by the unknown creatures.

Leo, Mikey, Sunset Shimmer, Applejack and Rainbow Dash haven't arrived at the school yet. So as he waits for their arrival, Fugitoid kept chasing his mogwai around the classroom, trying to catch and look at it. Fugitoid had a candy bar in his hand, hoping to lure the mogwai out with it. He slowly approached his desk as it was the place the mogwai ran under. Fugitoid bent down, unwrapped the candy bat and gently held it out.

"Come on out, little one." Fugitoid tried calling out the mogwai. "I'm not gonna hurt you. Look, I brought you a little snack, I figured you might be hungry. You hungry?"

Fugitoid waved the candy bar, and to his excitement, he sees the mogwai's shadow looming out of under the desk. He can hear it sniffing the air and stepping closer. Fugitoid stepped closer too, but it caused the mogwai to retreat back.

"Now now, no need to be frightened. Come now, you gotta be hungry. Just take a bite, all I want is to see you."

Fugitoid stretched his arm under the desk, putting the candy bar closer to his mogwai. He heard a few more sniffs before he heard what sounds like a chomp and chewing. He then heard the mogwai gasp in delight, even a "Yum-yum" coming out of it as he felt the mogwai grabbed his arm still and continued eating the candy bar.

Fugitoid's eyes emote a happy expression, satisfied of the outcome. "There, see? Now don't you feel better?"

But this happy moment immediately went away when Fugitoid's arm got tugged fiercely, banging his robotic head against his desk as he hears his arm being tugged and scratched.

"O-Oh my! What are you doing little one! Please, let go of my arm!"

His mogwai didn't do as it's told. In fact, it started getting more violent with Fugitoid's arm, yanking and tugging it as he hears the metal material being scratched, hearing the mogwai laughing in the process. Fugitoid pulls on his arm, trying to get it back from the aggressive mogwai. Then to his dismay, Fugitoid's arm got torn off due to the damages the mogwai inflicted on it, falling backwards and sitting on the floor.

Fugitoid's eyes emote in shock and surprise as he looks at his torn arm, sparks flying off it with visible scratches seen.

"Oh dear, that's not good."

Fugitoid then heard claws scraping on his desk. He looked to see his, 'mogwai', standing over his desk, glaring at him before it lunged at Fugitoid, attacking the professor as he screams, trying to fight off the little attacker.

Leo and his group finally made it to the school. Fugitoid luckily kept the doors unlocked so they could enter. They all dashed through the halls, trying to make it to Fugitoid's classroom to help him with his 'mogwai'. Finally, they get to the door of his class. Leo slowly opens the door and peeked inside. His eyes widened to see the classroom was a mess as there were broken pieces of desks and chairs. They all stepped inside and quietly gasped.

"Oh my word, what happened here?" Applejack glanced around.

"Did Fugitoid's mogwai do this?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"It's possible, so stay on guard." Leo said as they all slowly took out there weapons.

"You know, I just realized we never actually named Fugitoid's mogwai. Maybe we should give him a name so-" Mikey was interrupted when everyone shushed him.

"Nows not the time, Mikey!" Leo whispered. "We need to find Fugitoid's mogwai."

"Hey, where is Fugitoid?" Sunset soon realized they don't see the professor anywhere. That is, until they heard sparks.

They followed the noise and were not happy with what they found. They see Fugitoid in the corner of the classroom completely limp. His body was badly damaged, scratches around his android body as his legs were completely torn off and one arm completely missing. They gasped at the sight, Sunset slowly tearing up, fearing the worst for Fugitoid's fate.

"F-Fugitoid, no..!" She clapped her hands over her mouth.

"I don't believe it..." Leo frowned.

"Is he..?" Rainbow Dash didn't wanna finish that sentence.

"I'm afraid so..." Applejack hung her head low.

Sunset knelt down and puts her hand on Fugitoid's shoulder. "Oh Fugitoid..."

Suddenly Fugitoid swung his head up as his eyes lit up. "Yes?"

This sudden awakening from the android caused everyone to scream and step back, making Fugitoid scream too. After they finished they all catch their breathes and held their chests.

"Dude! Don't do that!" Rainbow Dash glared at the android.

"We thought you were dead!" Applejack added.

"Oh, biggest apologies. With me being unable to move I thought I'd save my power till you all arrived." Fugitoid explained.

"Well, at least you escaped the faith the teacher had in my Sprites comic." Mikey began. "After tampering with his science equipment, the teacher had a terrible chemical accident, causing his whole face to-"

Mikey stopped talking when he saw everyone shooting glares at him. Rainbow Dash turned her focus back on Fugitoid.

"Dude, what happened?"

"Well, after my mogwai hatched from his cocoon, I tried feeding it some candy. It took it, but immediately after it finished he tore my right arm off." Fugitoid explained, causing them to gasp.

"So your.... mogwai did this?" Sunset asked, completely shocked.

"But.... how..?" Leo wondered.

"Well, it seems in their new form they're much stronger, and unfortunately for us, more dangerous." Fugitoid said.

This made everyone gulp. Soon Mikey spots Fugitoid's arm on his desk.

"Hey Fugitoid, there's your missing arm." Mikey points at the arm.

"I still can't believe it tore off your arm." Leo said as he walked towards the arm. "How'd it do that?"

As Leo reached his hand at the arm, suddenly a small, green hand lunged out from behind the desk and scratched at Leo's hand.

"Agh!" Leo quickly pulled his hand back, holding it as everyone quickly rushed to Leo.

"Leo, are you okay?!" Sunset asked, holding his shoulder.

Instead of answering, Leo had his eyes focused on the desk.

"Uh, bro?" Mikey snapped his fingers at Leo, not getting a response.

Everyone turned their attention at the desk, and their eyes widen. They see the little hand that scratched Leo, reaching for an apple sitting on Fugitoid's desk, letting out a scratchy "Yum-yum...". Once it grabbed the apple, it pulls it down, and they hear it take a big bite out of the fruit. After some chewing and letting out some inaudible sounds, the apple was thrown out from behind the desk and nearly hits Mikey who quickly moved out of the way.

They see the hand reach up again, only this time, it grabs a small glass tube, pulling it down, and making everyone guess it just took a bite out of it, cause they hear the glass breaking and crunching, even hearing the words "Yum-yum." Again.

Rainbow Dash and Applejack slowly walked to the opposite sides of the desk to see if they can corner the creature. But to their shock, the creature reached it's hand out, grabbed Fugitoid's torn arm and yanks it back under the desk. They then hear what sounds like scratches and tearing. They all quickly rushed over to see the air vent completely torn off, leaving scratches on the wall and hearing foot steps scampering, seeing the creatures shadow moving away from the group as it's laugh echoes in the vents.

Finally after much silence, Mikey spoke up. "Dudes, what the heck was that?!"

"That, Michelangelo, would be the mogwai." Fugitoid answered.

"THAT was the mogwai?!" Sunset said in complete shock.

"It can't be! That thing was green and scaly! And it has claws!" Rainbow Dash shouted, still shocked from that whole thing.

"Yeah! Mogwais are suppose to be cute and fluffy! That thing was neither of those things!" Mikey adds.

Leo flinches and clutches his scratched hand. Sunset quickly turned her attention back to his injured hand. "Leo, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. We gotta- Nngh!" Leo flinches again.

"You are not fine, you're bleeding!" Sunset points out.

"Let's head to the nurse's office and patch your hand up." Applejack suggested.

Applejack grabbed the damaged Fugitoid and they all left the classroom, making their way towards the nurse's office. Using his uninjured hand, Leo calls April to inform her what happened.

April was frantically moving around a part of Canterlot City, looking for the mogwais she believed escaped. Then her phone rings, picking it up and answering.

"Leo?"

"April, Fugitoid's mogwai attacked him and is loose in the school with his arm." Leo informed, hearing April gasp through the phone.

"It what?!" April stopped walking, causing people near by to stare at her. Realizing this, April blushed from embarrassment before moving to a more secluded area. "How did it manage to do that?"

"Long story short, after hatching from their cocoons they come out more stronger and deadlier. We're gonna try to find it before it dies something with Fugitoid's arm. How are things with Fluttershy's mogwais?"

"Um.... they escaped her house." April sadly informed.

"They what?!" Leo having the same reaction April had.

"We're all trying to find them in the city! The sun is still out.... kinda... hopefully we'll find them before the sun completely sets." April assured.

"So you're all searching? What about Gizmo?" Leo wondered.

"He's...." April refrained from using the word safe. "Being watched by Zephyr at the house..."

"Uh.... I don't know if that should be comforting." Leo admits.

"Yeah I know, but don't worry. At least he's safe from harm." April said with a more positive tone.

Back in the house, Gizmo and Angel were holding each other, quivering in fear as the five figures cornered them, laughing and making raspy noises as they moved closer to the two.

"Gizmo." One of the creatures said as one of the other creatures walked towards and grabbed angel.

"Bunny, playtime~." It laughed as two other creatures grabbed Gizmo.

Leo and the others made it to the nurse's office. Sunset grabbed some disinfectant, pours it on a cotton ball and begins patting it on Leo's scratched hand, causing the turtle to grunt in pain. Applejack sets down Fugitoid with a huff.

"Phew, there's gotta be a better way to carry you around." Applejack wiped her forehead.

"Oh, how about we strap him on your back like a pack?" Mikey suggested. "It's like that scene from that old space movie, where the big hairy dude was carrying around that chatty robot on his back?"

"Uh..." Applejack didn't know how to respond, only for Fugitoid to speak up.

"Thanks for the suggestion, Michelangelo. But I'm afraid I'd only be slowing you all down. Perhaps it's best to just take me to Sunset's apartment while you all take care of this."

"We can't just leave you in your state." Sunset said as she bandages Leo's hand. "At least let Donnie fix you up a bit before considering that option."

Suddenly they heard a banging noise, followed up with a raspy laughter.

"Dudes, it's the green thing!" Mikey shouts.

"It's in the halls, quick!" Leo says, patting his bandaged hand before they all ran out of the nurse's office.

They all see a vent laying on the floor, guessing that's where the creature came out of. They hear the sound of Fugitoid's arm being dragged on the floor and all quickly dashed towards the sound. They spot the creature running and quickly turning to a corner of the halls, making everyone follow it quickly. To their dismay, they hear glass shattering, near the front entrance of the school. Once they get to the spot, they see the glass door was shattered, caused by the creature. They see it's three toed footprints leaving the school, and to make things worse, the sun has completely setted, which means the creature could be anywhere now.

"Oh man, this is almost exactly like my comic too..!" Mikey frowned.

"Almost?" Rainbow Dash rose her eyebrow.

"Well instead of escaping the school through a shattered door it simply flew out a conveniently opened window." Mikey explained.

"We have to inform April and the others!" Leo said as he whipped out his T-Phone.

Meanwhile, a car pulls up into the driveway of Fluttershy's house. It was Fluttershy's mother, Posey Shy, as she came back from driving to the airport. She shuts the car off let's out a soft sigh before stepping out of the car.

Inside the house, Gizmo and Angel were tangled against a dart bored as the creatures were using Fluttershy's ninja stars as throwing darts, nearly hitting the two. Gizmo and Angel quivered as a ninja star nearly hits their legs, face, and even shoulders as the creatures were laughing in delight. A creature aimed at Angel again, but this time instead of a ninja star, it used a kunai, and it lands near on top of the rabbit's head. One of the creatures then grabbed Gizmo and removed him from the dart board.

Posey Shy was at her front door, rummaging through her key chain for her house key.

"Gizmo, caca!" The creature said before throwing him into the laundry shoot as the mogwai's screams echoes through the shoot before he hits the bottom.

Posey Shy found the house key and inserts it in the lock. The creatures hear the lock clicking and scattered. Posey Shy opens the front door, hanging her keys on the wall and shuts the door, immediately feeling the cold breeze in the house.

"Oh my, why is it so cold in here?" She asked herself as she tried flicking the lights on, only for them to not come on. "Hmm? And why aren't the lights working?"

She walked towards the fireplace in the living room, turned the gas and tossed a lit match in it, making the fire. She looked around her dark home and called out to her kids.

"Fluttershy? Zephyr? Are you home?" She waited for a response but heard nothing.

She then hears the cold wind from her kitchen, thinking one of her kids for whatever reason opened it. She walked to the kitchen to close said window, but instead sees it's actually been shattered. This puts Posey on edge, thinking maybe someone broke in. But nothing seems to be stolen, raising more questions. She then hears what sounds like tiny scampering from the halls of her home.

This makes her more frightened, as she opens one of the kitchen drawers and.... pulls out a wooden spoon to use as a weapon. She tip toed through the halls, trying to find the source of the noise. She quickly stopped in her place as she saw the mist coming out of Fluttershy's room. Posey's heart was racing through her chest, breathing heavier as she slowly made her way to her daughter's room.

She slowly pushed the door open, and her eyes shrunk as she lets out a gasp. She sees the hatched cocoons, illuminating the green light and foggy mist on the ground. Posey pushes herself against the wall as she covered her mouth, unable to look away from the sight. She quickly pulled out her phone and dialed Fluttershy's number.

Fluttershy was in another part of town, searching for the 'escaped' mogwais. That's when she hears her phone ringing. She took off her glove, picked up the phone from her coat pocket and answered.

"Mom? Is that you? Where are you?"

"I-Im at home... F-Fluttershy, what are th-these egg looking things in your room..?" Posey said through her heavy breathing.

Instantly feeling guilty her mom saw the cocoons, she tried to explain in a calming manner. "Oh mom, it's a long story, but for now just stay put with Zephyr and Gizmo. Me and my friends are out looking for the other mogwais."

"F-Fluttershy, I don't think I even feel safe here... I-It's dark, cold, and I just heard something move in the halls..."

"Couldn't it have been Gizmo?" Fluttershy said, raising an eyebrow.

"I don't think so, hunny.... I heard multiple, and sounded like they had claws... in fact, I don't even see Gizmo, or your brother...." Posey explained, still breathing heavily.

"What? You don't see them? But they should be home, how could-" Fluttershy paused as she started thinking. She then had a terrible realization. Her eyes go wide as she looked distraught. "Oh no... Mom, listen to me, you have got to get out of the house, now..!"

"W-Where should I go..?" Posey asked shaking.

"Anywhere, just get out of the house now..!" Fluttershy said as she began running.

"O-Okay, I can-" Posey was stopped between her words as something was suddenly thrown across the halls, causing her to scream and drop her phone.

A hand then grabbed the phone off the ground and it began squeezing it tightly as a deep, raspy voice said. "Phone home, caca..!" The phone was then crushed by the large creature.

"Mom..? Mom?!" Fluttershy looked at her phone and saw the lost connection on her screen.

Posey was hyperventilating as she looked around for her phone. "F-Fluttershy, Fluttershy..?!" Posey Shy then stopped in her tracks when she heard what sounds like music playing.

Posey couldn't help but wonder who or what just started playing the music as the scared mother began to follow where it's coming from.

Fluttershy was running through the city, quickly dialing on her phone and waited for an answer. She then hears April’s voice through her phone.

"Fluttershy, what's-" before April could finish, Fluttershy immediately informs her of the situation.

"April, call the others and get back to my house now!" Fluttershy panted as she ran past some people.

"What? But Fluttershy, the mogwais-"

"Never left!" Fluttershy quickly added to her sentence.

"Wait, what?!"

"They tricked us! They made us think they escaped through the kitchen window but they were actually hiding somewhere in the house!" Fluttershy explained.

"How do you know?" The red head asked.

"Because my mom is there and she just heard them! We gotta get to my house now!" Fluttershy shouted.

"O-Okay, I'll call Leo and the others and tell them what you told me!" April said before the two hung up.

Posey Shy opened the door and entered her and her husband's room, seeing the record player was the one playing the music. She slowly stepped towards it and switched off the record player as the music slowly comes to a stop. She then heard glass breaking, making her jump. She clenched the wooden spoon and slowly exited her room.

She walked through the halls and slowly made her way back to the living room. She sees the fireplace is still lit and looked at the wall to see her car keys hanging from it. She started to make her way towards the door to grab them, but something caught her attention. When she peeked over the kitchen, her eyes widen as she saw a creature sitting on a counter, eating food it taken from the fridge. The creature was green, had scaly sking three long fingers, had a hunch to it's back and big ears. This creature seemed to had a robotic arm next to it, meaning it was the mogwai Fugitoid kept.

Posey let out a quiet gasp, but the 'mogwai's' ear perked up, having heard it, causing Posey to quickly hide back in the corner as the green creature slowly turned it's head to her direction. After seeing nothing, it went back to the food.

"Yum-yum." The creature said before letting out a gross burp.

Posey cautiously poked her head back to the kitchen to see the creature had dug it's head into a mixing bowl, eating the cookie dough off it. Posey took this chance to slowly make her way towards the door. She held her wooden spoon close as she slowly moved backwards, not taking her eyes off the creature to make sure it doesn't see her. Once she gets to the door, she slowly reaches for her car keys. Posey carefully lifted them off the hanger, doing her best to make sure they don't make jingly sounds.

Once the keys were in her hand she slowly reached for the doorknob. Once she felt the knob in her hand, she carefully turned it to open the door, but she felt her heart jump when she realized the doorknob didn't twist all the way. She forgot she locked the door when she came in. She looked back at the creature, seeing it's still eating the cookie dough.

She carefully unlocked the bottom lock, but the biggest issue was the top lock, as she knew it would be louder. She gulped quietly, and slowly reached for the top lock, grasping it. She looked back again to see the creature eating. So taking the risk, she slowly twists the top lock of the door. It gets closer and closer from turning all the way, Posey sweating nervously. With as much ease as she could, the lock ever so slightly clicks open, feeling her chest bursting.

When Posey went to grab the doorknob again, a knife suddenly was thrown and lands near Posey's head, causing her to scream. She turned her head and saw the creature was looking at her, grinning mischievously as it had knives in it's hand. It threw the knives at her direction, causing Posey to run and duck to avoid the knives being thrown. She hides behind the couch as knives were being flung in her direction. She hears the creature laugh before it goes quiet.

Posey didn't wanna move, but if she didn't, it's possible the creature could come to her, so she carefully pokes her head up to see the creature gone. She looked at the door, seeing the knives thrown sticking on it, makes Posey hesitant to rush to the door now. She didn't know what to do at this point, too scared to think and do anything.

Then she immediately screamed when she felt something grab her ankle. She looked down to see the creatures hand from under the couch has a hold on her ankle. She quickly used the wooden spoon to repeatedly smack the creatures hand, causing it to grunt in pain before letting go. Posey decided to quickly make a break for the door, but the creature quickly crawled and blocked her path, revealing it's sharp toothed grin. Nowhere else to run, she tried going to her room.

But as Posey ran, she felt a big hand hit her leg, causing her to trip and fall. She looked back and saw a much bigger creature, bigger than the first one she saw. Seeing she's close to her room, she quickly started crawling towards it. She entered, and began closing the door, only for it to swing open and knock her on her back. She saw the creature standing by the door, laughing as it slowly made it's way towards her.

Posey quickly used her foot to swing the door shut, but the creature pushes back, keeping her from closing the door. Posey uses both feet to push the door as hard as she can, grunting and breathing heavily. She uses one foot to stomp at the door, making it hit the creature's head as it was poking it through the door. Posey then pulls her feet back and quickly stomps them back at the door, shutting it completely. She then quickly gets up and locks the door, but it doesn't stop the large creature from banging on it repeatedly.

Posey backs up against her bed, breathing heavily as she clenched the wooden spoon, hearing the loud bangs on the door. Soon the banging stops and the big creature's footsteps are heard leaving. But Posey doesn't calm down as she knows there's most likely more in the house, the question being how many.

She reluctantly got her answer when she heard what sounds like scampering around the room. She slowly looked up, and saw a figure crawling around the ceiling before stopping. It slowly turned it's head, it's glowing red eyes looking at her as Posey quivers in fear. The creature quickly lunges down at Posey, cackling as Posey screamed and quickly moved out of the way.

The creature lands on her bed and quickly looks at her direction, cackling maniacally. It crawls itself off her bed and into her direction, making Posey scream as she crawled back, throwing the wooden spoon at it, but the creature maneuvers out of the way before it leaped itself onto Posey.

Posey screamed as her back hits against her dresser, causing one of her spray cans to fall on the floor. She saw the can and quickly reached for it. Once she had the hair spray in her hand, she took off the cap and sprays into the creature's face. It's eyes start to burn and it's nostril begins to tingle as the creature screams and falls on it's back. Posey quickly got up, unlocked her door and ran out of her room.

Deciding it's worth the risk, she dashes towards the front door again, not wanting to spend another second in her house. But as she ran, her foot slipped on something that felt like a ball and fell to the ground. She picked herself up and saw what she believes to be a ball, but rolling away. Quickly turning back, she grabbed the doorknob, twists it and begins to pull. But to her dismay, the door didn't open! How? She unlocked the locks and the knob is twisting all the way, why is it still not opening?

Posey saw her answer, as she saw there were nails halfway hammered against the doorframe, preventing it from opening. She looked back into her empty, dark home, the only light source is the fireplace. The only other possible exit is the back door, but that would mean going deeper into her dark home, with these creatures hiding somewhere. And just as she was thinking that, she hears something moving nearby. She followed the noise and saw one of the stockings near the fireplace was moving, hinting something was moving inside.

Not wanting the creatures to get the better of her this time, she decides to take action first. Looking at the multiple knives sticking on the door, she decided to grab one to use as a weapon. But the knives were wedged in tightly, so that was out of the question. With no other choice, she decided to grab a nearby broom as a weapon. Posey, holding the broom close, slowly moved towards the moving stocking, clenching it tight as she quietly gulped to herself, her heart beating fast.

As she was near the stocking, she raised her broom up, preparing to swing at it. Her arms were shaking as she clenched the broom tightly in her hands, breathing heavily as her chest puffs in and out. With much force she can conjure, she swung the broom down, clenching her eyes shut as she knocked the stocking out of the fireplace.

When she opened her eyes, her breathing started easing up as she sees the thing that was moving inside the stocking was actually a toy robot, it's lower legs moving around. This put Posey in ease for a little bit, but that ease faded when she started to hear rustling, and it was very close.

Posey turned her head to see that the Christmas tree was rustling, and two of the ornaments slowly... blinking? She quickly realized that those weren't ornaments, but eyes, and before she could react the Christmas tree falls on top of her due to the creature inside moving it's weight on it.

Posey fell flat on her back as her glasses were knocked off of her face and began screaming in a big panick, swinging her arms and kicking her legs as the creature attacked her. The creature cackled as it grabbed hold of her collar and began snapping it's teeth at her, taunting to bite her as Posey was using her hand to push the creature back. It did little to no good as the creature reached it's slender arm out and scratched her against her cheek, making her scream more.

Fluttershy was running as fast as she could, panting heavily as she was determined to reach her home. To her relief she sees her house, so she made a quick dash towards it.

The Christmas tree was no longer on top of Posey, but the creature was now sitting on top of her, it's hands grabbing a hold around Posey's neck and squeezing it tightly, shaking her violently as it cackled frantically. The wooden box that Gizmo was brought it, opens slightly, as a pair of eyes poke out and green fingers held on the edge as it watches the commotion.

"Ooooh neeeeaaat." The creature inside said as it continued watching.

Fluttershy ran towards the front door and quickly tried to open it, but it didn't budge. She pushes and bangs her shoulder against the door to try and open it, but the nails on the doorframe was stopping it. Fluttershy can hear her mother screaming, and now Fluttershy was more eager to get the door open as she banged on it and started kicking it.

Soon April, along with Casey, Leo, Mikey and the Rainbooms quickly showed up as they ran to Fluttershy while Applejack was still carrying Fugitoid.

"Fluttershy, we're here!" April said.

"April, my mom's inside and she's in trouble, but the door won't open!" Fluttershy explained.

Immediately they all hear Fluttershy's mom scream inside. Wasting no time, April stood infront of the door.

"Fluttershy, stand back!" April told her friend who quickly listened.

Using her telekinetic powers, April shot her hand forward and the door bursts open. Everyone rushed inside and were horrified to see Fluttershy's mom being choked and shook around by the green creature. While Leo and his crew knew what the creature looked liked, Fluttershy, April, Casey, Rarity, Twilight and Pinkie Pie were stunned to see these are actually what the mogwais look like now.

"L-Let go of my mother!" Fluttershy said as she ran to help her mom.

But as she ran, she slipped on something round, making her fall on the floor. Everyone looked at the rolling object, only for it to bounce on a ledge and uncurled itself. It was another green creature as it cackled at the crew.

"Is that.... Tuck?!" Twilight gasped.

Tuck cackled some more before he grabbed a picture frame and threw it at the group. Suddenly Applejack and Rarity had fruit being thrown at their heads, making the two flinch.

"Ow! What in tarnation?!" Applejack grunted.

They heard fast crawling on the ceiling. The two looked up and saw another green creature crawling around on the ceiling, quickly stopping to laugh at them before crawling around again.

"Scamper!" Rarity glared, knowing immediately it was the mogwai that ruined her dress.

"That means the other mogwais are hear somewhere!" Leo noted, before a large chair was thrown at him, knocking the leader down.

They heard loud thumping. They see a large green creature moving out from the shadows, dragging it's sharp claws against a wall as it let's out a deep chuckle.

"G-Guys, is that?" Mikey's eyes widen in shock.

"Terrance..." Applejack answered, knowing full well it's Terrance due to being larger than the other creatures.

"Oh dear, he's a big fellow isn't he?" Fugitoid gulped.

Fluttershy took this opportunity to help her mom as she quickly picked herself up and dashed towards her, but Tuck quickly curls into a ball and bounces himself at her, hitting her in the chest and knocking her on her back.

"Fluttershy!" April gasped as she ran to help her friend, but to her surprise, a string of Christmas lights were wrapped around her neck and the red head was yanked on her back.

Scamper had tossed the Christmas lights around April’s neck and was pulling her away from the animal lover, choking April in the process.

"Hold on April, I got you!" Mikey said, but was immediately cut off when Tuck jumped on his head and began attacking him. "Aaaaah! Get him off me, get him off me!"

"Hold on Mikey, I-!" Pinkie Pie was immediately interrupted when a loud clanking noise is heard. Pinkie Pie slowly fell forward and planted face first on the floor.

"Pinkie Pie!" Applejack gasped as she ran towards her friend, but was instantly tackled by the large Terrance, pinning her down and dropping Fugitoid. Applejack tried swinging her weapon at him, but he caught her arm and began pushing back. Terrance was much stronger than he originally was, and heavier.

"Pinkie Pie, are you okay?" Rainbow Dash quickly helped her friend.

"I think so.... what-" before she could finish her question, she immediately had an angry glare. "Wacko..!"

The thing that hit Pinkie in the head was indeed Wacko, who was now a green creature himself as he held a frying pan in his hand and was laughing.

Rarity quickly cuts the Christmas lights choking April as the red head coughs and begins breathing again. This causes Scamper to jump and latch himself on Rarity's face, making the girl scream and stumble back. Fluttershy once again tried helping her mother, crawling towards her, but Terrance gets off Applejack and grabbed Fluttershy's ankle, stopping her in her tracks. He yanked the girl with ease before jumping on her back and pinning her shoulders down.

"I got your mom Fluttershy!" Casey said as he rand towards Fluttershy's mom with a hockey stick in hand, but was instantly knocked on his back when Wacko leaped up and smacked Casey across the face with the frying pan.

Wacko then began frantically swinging the pan at Casey, who was blocking and dodging the attacks. Tuck, who was still on Mikey's head, pushed the turtle down and made him fell on top of Casey.

Tuck then looked at the immobilized Fugitoid and grinned. The creature then rolled towards the android and began tearing open his chest.

"Aah! No no, don't do that! Someone, help!" Fugitoid begged.

"Fugitoid!" Sunset gasped when she and Twilight ran to help the professor.

Leo, who was slowly coming out of his daze, sees the commotion going on. He spots Fluttershy's mom on the floor and the creature choking her. He quickly got up and began running towards her. Scamper seeing this, jumps off Rarity's face and crawls towards Leo and leaps at him, causing the turtle to quickly swing back and kick the creature away from him. Wacko then leaped on his back and began to repeatedly hit his head with the pan. Leo grabbed the creatures arm and threw him at Terrance, who didn't even flinch. Terrance then got off Fluttershy and lunged his big body at the leader, only for Leo to slide on his knees and make the large creature miss.

Once near Posey, he whipped out one of his swords and pulled his arms back. "Hey!" Leo called at the creature.

The green creature looked at Leo and it's ears immediately drooped down as it let's out a "Uh-oh."

With swift motion, Leo swung his katana at the creature, instantly decapitating it's head as it flew straight into the fireplace as it's limp body falls to the ground. The four creatures saw this and let out shocked and angered gasps.

Fluttershy quickly crawled towards her mom and checks on her. "Mom, are you okay..?!"

"I-I think so..." Posey nodded as she was breathing heavily. The two looked at the decapitated head slowly turning to ashes in the fireplace as they can still hear it's scream fading.

Fluttershy turned to the blue leader. "Thank you Leo."

Before Leo could respond, a big blast hits him from behind, throwing the turtle against a wall. "Leo!" Fluttershy cried out.

They all quickly turned to the source of the blast and their eyes widen. They see a fifth green creature standing on the counter, holding Fugitoid's torn arm as it somehow had it switched to it's gun mode. They all quickly recognize a familiar white stripe on this creature's head.

"Guys, it's Stripe..!" Mikey gasped.

Stripe had an angry look to his face before it slowly turned into a grin. He pointed the gun moded arm at the group. "Hahaha, Pew-pew!" Stripe said before the arm started firing rapid plasma bolts at the group aimlessly, making them all take cover. Stripe was laughing historically as he swayed the weapon back and forth, causing much damage around the house, even shattering the living room window.

As Stripe was firing at the group, his group of friends quickly ran out and jumped through the living room window.

"They're getting away!" Rainbow Dash called out.

Once Stripe's group got out, he stopped firing. But instead of escaping through the window he shot at, he instead jumps through the already broken window in the kitchen as the group hears Stripe laughing before it fades away.

"Oh man, they got out for real this time!" Casey slammed his fist to the ground.

"With Fugitoid's arm!" Mikey added.

After collecting themselves Leo walked towards Posey Shy. "Mrs.Shy, are you alright?" He asked, helping the woman up.

"I-I believe so.... thank you Leonardo..." Posey smiled at the turtle.

Fluttershy sees her mom's red neck and scratched cheek as she starts to tear up. "Oh mom, I'm so sorry..! It's all my fault..! I shouldn't have never..!" Fluttershy stopped speaking and begin to cry softly.

Her friends started to feel bad for her. While they knew keeping the bad mogwais around was a bad idea, they no longer wanted to say it to her as they see how distraught she is.

"I wish I got here sooner, and maybe you wouldn't have gotten hurt..!" Fluttershy continued as she wiped her tears.

"Oh no, don't blame yourself Fluttershy... you're here now, and that's what matters." Posey assured as she hugged her daughter who quickly returned the hug.

"Guys, what're we gonna do?" Sunset spoke up. "Stripe and the other mogwais are loose in Canterlot City." She reminded.

"Sunset's right, who knows what kind of damage they can do." Twilight looked at the broken windows.

"That's why we need to track them down and fast." Leo said, cracking his shoulder.

"If we do find them, then what?" Casey asked.

"Then we take them out." Leo answered, knowing full well having those things alive is out of the question.

Hearing this, April looks at Fluttershy, feeling like this is something she's not comfortable doing. "Fluttershy..? Um.... look, it's okay if you don't wanna come with us."

Being more empathetic, everyone else nods.

"Yeah, if you wanna take your mom somewhere safe and stay with her, we understand." Sunset said.

"We won't force you to-"

"No, I'm coming..." Fluttershy instantly spoke up, taking everyone by surprise.

"What? Fluttershy, are you sure?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah, you know what we're planning to do once we find them, right?" Casey reminded the shy girl.

"I know.... and I'm still coming anyway." Fluttershy looked at her friends, having a more serious and determined look on her face. "I can allow them to use and manipulate me, even making me feel like a fool.... But I will not stand them attacking and hurting my family..! So let's get out there, and find those little meanies!"

Everyone stared at Fluttershy before giving smiles and nods to her, as they prepare to go out and search for the escaped 'mogwais', in hopes to stop them before they cause more damage and hurt more people.

Author's Note

Well look at that, finally a new chapter released. I apologize again. I started slowly getting less motivated in continuing this story more and more. But I'm starting to get that motivation back as I finally finished this chapter. Thank you all who stuck around and waited patiently (or not patiently.)
