Meanwhile, Sunset was sleeping in her bedroom with her PJs on until her alarm clock rang. Sunset groaned in bed as her journal inside her bag started glowing. One minute later, she turned off her alarm clock and sat up on her bed. It was Saturday morning as Sunset slowly opened her eyes and stretched until she saw her bag glowing.
“What's this?” Sunset wondered and grabbed her bag. She opened it and saw her journal glowing. Sunset turned the pages and saw a message from Twilight. She read it carefully and her face turned to worry. “Uh-oh.”
Minutes later, Sunset was dressed up and brought her bag as she stood right next to the CHS statue. While she was twiddling around with her phone and waiting for her friends from New York, someone sneaked up on Sunset and placed a hand on her shoulder. However, Sunset was ready and punched the figure’s face.
“Ow!”
Sunset gasped and realized it was Mikey. She said, “Mikey?”
“Surprise.”
While Raph giggled from the bushes and recorded the whole scene from his phone, Sunset said, “Don’t sneak up on me like that, dude.”
Mikey apologized, “Sorry about that.”
Soon, the rest of her New York friends: The turtles, Casey, April, Karai, Shinigami, and Keno emerged from the bushes.
“Glad you all made it here. How're all of you doing?” Sunset inquired.
"We're doing good, Sunset." Leo answered.
“Excellent. You got the portal projector ready, Donnie?” April asked.
Donnie took out a fully charged portal projector from his bag. “Eeyup. It is fully charged.”
"All right, you guys," Sunset told them, "This is it. Ready to go back to Equestria?"
"Yeah. But why?" Casey asked.
“I got a message from Twilight. She said it’s urgent.”
"Well, if Twilight and her friends are in trouble in Equestria, we’ll be there to help." Keno said.
Leo stated, “And we’re ready as always, Sunset.”
"Then not a moment to waste." Sunset told them. “Let's do this.”
”Donnie,” Leo called.
“On it,” Donnie started entering the coordinates on the portal gun and projected a portal. After that, the group went through the portal until it closed.
Minutes later, a portal opened outside Princess Twilight’s Castle and the ninja ponies stepped out.
Mikey smelled the fresh air. “Ahhhhhhh, feels good to be back here.”
Sunset walked towards the castle and knocked on the door.
The door was opened and Pinkie suddenly tackled Sunset to hug her.
Pinkie squealed in glee, “Hey Sunset! You made it!”
“Nice to see you again, Pinkie.”
Mikey greeted her, “What up Pinkie!”
Pinkie gasped, “Mikey! Ninja friends!” She hugged them one by one. “Welcome back.”
Karai told her, “Thanks for the warm welcome, Pinkie.”
“You betcha. Twilight and her friends are waiting for you inside.”
Sunset and her team nodded and they all went inside. In the main room, Sunset and her friends saw Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, Blade Swipe, Twilight and the rest of their friends chatting.
“WE’RE HERE Y'ALL!” Mikey screamed.
Everypony turned to their attention to their pony friends from the other world and they were all happy to see them. Everyone greeted and hugged each other after that.
Twilight told her, “I’m glad you got my message, Sunset.”
“I sure did. So, what seems to be the problem in your area?”
Blade Swipe spoke up, “Well, um, there is no problem here in Ponyville. But, there is someone that I would like you and your friends to meet.”
“And who would that be, Twilight?” Raph asked.
Then, everypony heard someone knocking on the door. One of the royal guards answered, “They’re here, your Majesty.”
The two princesses nodded. Princess Luna ordered, “Open it.”
The royal guards opened the door and out came two familiar faces that the Ninjas and Allies recognized
“Am I late for the party?” Capper hollered.
Everypony smiled to see their feline friend except for Keno.
Sunset, “Hey Capper! It's been a while.”
"Indeed."
Keno stopped for a second. “Wait, wait, wait, you met this cat before?”
“Why yes. I met him back at Klugetown, but he ended up helping us by defeating the Storm King and his empire. Plus, he attended the Friendship Festival with us. Keno, this is Capper. Capper, this is my good friend, Keno.”
"It is a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, Keno." Capper bowed and shook Keno's hoof.
"Likewise."
Then, four anthromorphic cats wearing some palace guard gear entered the castle and behind them was a black cat wearing a queen’s crown, necklace, gold armband, and a purple dress.
"Ah, my queen is here." Capper said and bowed as the feline queen entered the main hall. Capper announced, "Mares and gentlecolts, I present to you, the Queen of Abyssinia."
Then, everypony bowed to the Queen of Abyssinia.
"Thank you, Capper. Princess Celestia and Luna, so nice to see you two again."
"Indeed," Princess Celestia nodded.
"What brings you here to Ponyville?" Princess Luna asked.
The Queen of Abyssinia sadly told the ponies, "Well, you see, I’m here to speak with the ponies who defeated the Storm King.”
Princess Twilight acknowledged, “Ah yes, that would be me and my friends, your Majesty.”
The feline queen said, "Well, on behalf of Abyssinia, thank you."
"You are very welcome, your Majesty." Leo bowed.
"Wow, I never met a pony walking on two hoofs and have strange hands before," The queen of Abyssinia noticed.
Donnie explained, "Oh, well, you see, we're mutants and we're from another world. So, we pretty much look like this in here."
“Fascinating,” The Queen of Abyssinia smiled.
"Fascinating indeed, my queen. These are my friends..." Capper introduced them one by one. "Princess Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Spike, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Blade Swipe, Leo, Donnie, Raph, Mikey, April, Casey, Karai, and Shini. Oh uh, don't forget about Keno, he's their friend too."
The Queen of Abyssinia bowed to them, “It is an honor to meet you all.”
“It is an honor to meet you as well,” Princess Twilight bowed in return.
“Indeed,” The Queen of Abyssinia sadly told them, “But, I desperately need your help at this time.”
Spike asked, “Why?”
“Because, my husband is missing.” The Queen of Abyssinia pretended to faint until Capper caught her.
"What happened?" Rarity sadly asked.
"I was right beside my husband last night when we were asleep. And when I woke up, he was gone. I called my royal guards to search for him. We looked everywhere except Badstreet, but nothing. Plus, I found catprints right near the window of our bedroom. So, in conclusion, I believe my husband was… KIDNAPPED!"
Rarity gasped and Fluttershy weeped, "Oh no."
"Who would do such a thing?" Starlight questioned.
"I'm not sure, but whoever it is, I will bring justice to those whoever kidnapped my king." The queen of Abyssinia cried. "Capper!"
"Yes, your Majesty," Capper replied.
"I entrust you and your pony friends to find and save my husband. Will you do that for me please?"
Capper acknowledged, "You have our word, your Majesty. We won't let you down."
The queen of Abyssinia bowed and said, "Splendid. I shall be off to this town's spa and tour around this town."
"Wait! Let us go with you, Queen of Abyssinia," Princess Celestia suggested. "We'll give you a tour around Ponyville."
"Agreed," Princess Luna added.
"Very well then. I hope they cover cat insurance. But nonetheless, farewell Capper and friends."
The Ninjas, Allies, and ponies waved bye to the Queen of Abyssinia and the Princesses as the Princesses' royal guards closed the door.
Sunset asked, "Capper, can I ask you something?"
"Of course."
"Your queen said she and her guards searched the entire kingdom except Badstreet. Do you know what Badstreet is?"
"Ah yes, The Isle of BadStreet was a place where I hang out with my old pals when we were kitties. As I grew up, I moved to Panthera."
“So Badstreet is like the slums or the hood or something?” Casey inquired.
Capper answered, “I don't know what those words mean, but it's something like that.”
"So do you think your king is held up in that place?" Princess Twilight questioned.
"Perhaps, but..." Capper explained. “You need to know how Badstreet works in Abyssinia. So I’m going with you and I will bring some more of our friends because there is safety in numbers and none of us is really too popular over there.”
Leo told him, “I understand, Capper. We can handle whatever they’re dishin’.”
“Thank you. And uh, one more thing.”
“Hmm?” Leo and his friends wondered.
“There is no way you and your friends are going in looking like that.”
The Mane 7, Sunset, Starlight, Spike, Ninjas, and Allies were dressed in their pirate outfits as Capper guided them to the docks where some familiar faces can be seen there. At the docks, it was Fizzlepop Berrytwist (formerly known as Tempest Shadow), Captain Celaeno and her crew on their pirate airship.
“Hiya mateys!” Captain Celaeno greeted her old pals.
“Hello captain,” Casey greeted her and saluted.
Captain Celaeno saluted him back.
“Wow. Are you a pirate?” Keno asked.
“Indeed I am. What’s your name, kid?” Captain Celaeno asked Keno.
“My name is Keno. Pleasure to meet you.”
“Likewise,” Captain Celaeno replied and they both shook each other’s hands after that.
“Howdy Shadow Tempest. How ya doin’ lately?” Applejack asked her.
“I don’t go by that name anymore. It’s Fizzlepop now.”
“I think your Shadow name is cool though,” Keno hollered.
“Thanks. Again, I don’t use that name anymore.”
“It’s cool. I’m Keno by the way.”
“Fizzlepop Berrytwist.”
The two ponies shook hands afterwards until Keno noticed something.
“What happened to your horn?”
Fizzlepop answered, “Oh this. It’s a long story. I’ll tell you about it later.”
After everyone greeted Celaeno’s crew, Captain Celaeno informed everyone, “Alright mateys, man your stations. We’re setting course to Abyssinia.
Minutes later, they arrived at the docks of Abyssinia, everyone lowered the sails and parked the ship.
Capper told Rainbow, “Rainbow, help me with the tarp.”
Rainbow nodded, “Got it.”
They both grabbed the tarp from the closet.
“Leo,” Capper called.
Leo grabbed the other side of the tarp and they covered the ship.
Fizzlepop said, “It feels really weird being back here.”
Captain Celaeno told her, “We’ll get in and get out.”
Capper informed everyone, “All right everypony, keep it chill. The last thing we need is my family figuring out I’m here.”
“All right lads, stay here and guard the ship while I guide my friends to Badstreet,” Captain Celaeno ordered her pirate crew.
The pirate crew nodded and Captain Celaeno went with her friends.
Everyone walked around the streets of Badstreet until a couple of kitties pickpocketed Captain Celaeno’s little bag of money from behind.
“Hey. Hey. Stop.” Captain Celaeno said, but the little kittens made their cute, little sad expressions on their faces.
“Aww, they look so cute.” Fluttershy said.
Celaeno sighed and let them go, “Just take it. Go on.” Then she noticed Pinkie wandering off on her own and scoffed, “Pinkie.”
Pinkie wandered around the alleyway until she saw a cat with a trench coat standing around. She greeted him, “Hey…”
The cat growled at Pinkie and her friends came to her aid.
Captain Celaeno told her, “Pinkie, stop. Just stop.”
Then, Raph and Capper glared at the trench-coated cat and the bad cat backed off, standing back at his spot.
“Why?” Pinkie asked.
“This isn’t a parade, it’s Badstreet,” Fizzlepop answered.
Capper stated, “Keep your hooves to yourselves unless you’re stealing.”
Captain Celaeno continued, “You either slouch or strut.”
Fizzlepop finished, “And never ever smile.”
Mikey said, “Okay, thanks for the info…”
Captain Celaeno rejected, “No. No thank you and drop the please too. Just… chill.”
“Why?” Princess Twilight questioned.
Captain Celaeno answered, “‘Because Capper, Fizzlepop, my crew, and myself have been here before and we know how to chill… like a villain.”
“Are you saying that we all have to be bad in order to survive these streets?” Raph said.
“Eeyup,” Blade Swipe answered.
Twilight said, “I can’t do this. In fact, we all can’t. We’re not villains.”
“Lucky for us, we used to be villains.” Karai stated as Blade Swipe, Sunset, Starlight, and Fizzlepop nodded.
Rarity spoke up, “I was temporarily turned into a villain a long time ago. Remember that?”
“And I used to learn how to take no guff from nopony thanks to Iron Will," Fluttershy admitted. “But I don’t do that anymore because it pushed my friends away.”
Capper understood his pony pals, “Look, I understand all of your concerns, but if you all wanna survive these streets, we gotta teach you how to find your bad side.”
“How?” Pinkie asked.
“I think it goes something like this,” Capper said. “Hit it.” He signaled Celaeno to sing.
[Captain Celaeno]
Let me tell you something you can really trust
Everybody's got a wicked side
I know you think that you can never be like us
Sunset, Starlight, Fizzlepop, Capper, Karai, and Blade Swipe nodded in unison.
Watch and learn so you can get it right
The heroes stepped aside as the seven former bad guys started dancing.
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
You need to drag your feet
You need to nod your head
You need to lean back
Mikey crossed his arms and leaned back on the feline bystander. He glared at Mikey and Mikey backed off while the seven continued dancing.
Slip through the cracks
You need to not care
[Blade Swipe]
Uh, you need to not stare
Capper sneakily stole Casey’s wallet from his bag.
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
You need a whole lot of help
[Capper]
You need to not be yourself
Sunset let Casey know that Capper got his wallet, and Casey angrily got his wallet back.
[Capper]
You wanna be cool?
Let me show you how
You break the rules
I can show you how
And once you catch this feeling
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
And once you catch this feeling
You'll be chillin', chillin', oh
The five former villains and Capper started dancing their msuical number.
Chillin' like a villain
[Sunset Shimmer]
Chillin'
Twilight and her friends then started dancing, but they were not copying the movements from Capper, Captain Celaeno, and the five former villains.
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
Chillin' like a villain
[Starlight Glimmer]
Chillin'
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
Chillin' like a villain
Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe
Twilight and her friends stopped dancing and paused for a moment until they followed Capper, Captain Celaeno, and the five former villains.
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
Chillin' like a, chillin' like a
Karai and Blade Swipe
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
Villain
[Capper]
You get attention when you act like that
Let us teach you how to disappear
You look like you would lose a fight to an alley cat
“Heh heh,” Capper chuckled.
Gotta be wrong to get it right 'round here
Raow!
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
You need to watch your back
You need to creep around
The seven tip-toed on a skateboard rail and then slid on it.
You need to slide real smooth
Mikey, Casey, and Rainbow tried to slid smooth, but they accidentally hit a garbage bin.
Don't make a sound
And if you want it, take it
And if you can't take it, break it
The four spun around and did a front kick as a demonstration. Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Keno tried to copy their moves but ended up falling over.
And if you care about your health
[Karai]
Seriously, you need to not be yourself
Everyone sat down on the rail and the heroes watched their dance number.
[Fizzlepop Berrytwist]
You wanna be cool?
Let me show you how
Everyone crossed their arms and put their right leg over their left leg.
You break the rules
I can show you how
And once you catch this feeling
Everyone started dancing to the beat.
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
And once you catch this feeling
You'll be chillin', chillin', oh
Everyone started dancing again.
Chillin' like a villain
[Sunset Shimmer]

Chillin' like a villain
[Starlight Glimmer]

Karai and Blade Swipe
[Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe]
Chillin' like...
Everyone stopped dancing for a moment and gave each other hoof bumps and high fives.
[Mikey]
I really wanna be bad a lot
[Rainbow Dash]
And I'm giving it my best shot
[Fluttershy]
But it's hard being when I'm not
[Blade Swipe]
Well if you don't, you're gonna get us caught
[Sunset Shimmer]
He's right, we gotta stay low-key
[Starlight Glimmer]
Now show us how bad you can be
Mikey and Pinkie pulled out sunglasses and candy bar from their coats.
[Mikey & Pinkie Pie]
Like this?
Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer & Karai
Rarity and Donnie then grabbed a jewel and a doubloon from their coats too.
[Rarity & Donnie]
Like this?
Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer & Karai
After everyone learned how to steal and adapt into the streets of Abyssinia, they finally got their groove on.
[Applejack]
Oh yeah, Ah think we got this
[Casey]
Let's go, we're ready to rock this
[Leo]
And we ain't gonna thank you for your help
[All (except Captain Celaeno, Fizzlepop Berrytwist, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Capper, Karai & Blade Swipe)]
I think I found the worse to myself
Everyone started dancing the number together.
[Sunset Shimmer]
You wanna be cool?
Let me show you how
[Starlight Glimmer]
You break the rules
I can show you how
[Blade Swipe]

[Fizzlepop Berrytwist]
Chillin'
Captain Celaeno, Capper, Karai, & Blade Swipe
[All]
Chillin' like a villain
Princess Twilight and Mikey got their groove on and strutted forward until they unexpectedly bumped into Willy, making their friends nervous and worried.
“Hey there,” Willy greeted her. “I think I know you.”
Mikey said in a cool, unsuspecting voice, “Uh, no. Don't know you either, bro.”
“Uh, yeah, yeah you do,” Willy replied as Capper, Captain Celaeno, and the rest of their pony friends came to their aid. Willy asked, “Come on. Really?”
The heroes had no clue what he was talking about.
“Huh? Let me give you a hint. My dad is quick, slick, and his neck… Huh… is incredibly thick.” The heroes refused to answer and Willy continued, “Come on…” Willy then saw a group photo of Princess Twilight, her friends, and her students in front of the School of Friendship in the newspaper cover. The big cat looked back and forth between the newspaper and Princess Twilight until he realized. “Oh, you're Princess Twilight.”
“Okay, we gotta move. Now!” Karai hollered.
“I don't think so,” Princess Twilight said before she was dragged off by her friends.
“Yeah. You are Princess Twilight. And you're Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Spike, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, the mutant ponies and other friends, Captain Celaeno, and Capper. Hey, guys.”
Willy then realized he said Capper’s name and said, “Ah… Puma’s gonna love this.” He laughed and ran away to find her captain about the news.

As the night began to set, Capper and his friends retreated to an alleyway and panted for air after running.
“What were you thinking?!” Capper said.
Mikey apologized, “Chill out, dude. I got a little sidetracked. That's all.”
Capper facepalmed until they heard footsteps coming right towards them.
“Guys, someone's coming,” Leo informed his friends as Captain Celaeno and the Ninjas armed themselves with their weapons.
The sounds of footsteps were coming closer until they saw a silhouette of the king of Abyssinia.
“Your Highness?” Capper said.
The silhouette nodded and the heroes exhaled as Capper continued, “Don't scare us like that, your highness.”
“Don't scare you.”
Out of the darkness was not the king. It was Gary wearing a fake crown made out of paper on his head. The Mane 6 and Spike were surprised while Capper and the Ninjas glared at Gary.
Gary said, “That's my speciality.”
“Who the shell are you?” Raph asked.
“The name's Gary Hook. A pleasure to meet you, ya little ponies,” Gary bowed his presence to the heroes.
“Still running errands for Puma or do you get to keep what you steal?” Capper questioned him.
Gary noticed Capper and greeted him, “Well, well, well. So nice to see you again, old friend.”
“It's been quite a long time, Gary.”
“Just wait until Puma hears you're back. She's never gonna give your old territory back.”
Capper replied, “Oh. Well, that's okay. Because I'm not worried about that now.”
“So, where's the king, hairball?” Leo interrogated the pirate cat.
“Oh, uh, we nicked him. Mmm-hmm,” Gary nodded. “Yeah, um, and if you want to see him again, have Capper come to the Chip Shoppe tonight. Puma wants a little visit.” He then told Capper with his puppy little eyes, “Aw, Capper.” Gary smirked, “Seems like you've lost your touch.”
Capper growled and was ready to pounce on him, but Captain Celaeno, Donnie, Applejack, and Rainbow held him back. Gary laughed and walked away while whistling to a song.
“So Gary's your friend, huh?” Applejack asked Capper.
Capper answered, “Unfortunately, yes. And the big cat you guys just met, that's Willy, he's another friend of mine. And their captain, Puma, she was my ex.”
“Oof, that’s pretty rough, bud,” Keno cringed.
“So Puma and her gang are the ones behind the kidnapping. But why?” April said.
“Not sure,” Capper answered. “I guess we'll have to go to the Chip Shoppe and find out.”
“Agreed,” Captain Celaeno stated. “But we may run into Gary Hook and his wharf cats again.”
Princess Twilight told Capper, “Don't worry, Capper. We'll be there to help you.”
Capper nodded and they all exited the alleyway.
Meanwhile, in Petey's Fish and Chips, Captain Puma placed the customer’s tray of food on the table in an impolite way.
The customer complained, “Hey, I wanted the fried fish.”
“And I wanted a seashell. Life ain't fair.” Captain Puma insulted the customer.
Then, Capper and his friends entered the chip shoppe as Captain Puma placed another tray of food on the table.
Capper sang-songed, “I'm back.”
“Loser, party of one, along with your guests. Right this way please,” Captain Puma offered Capper a seat on the table. She also suggested a few tables for the others.
Capper sat on the chair at his table as Captain Puma and the rest of the customers watched. The rest of Capper’s pals sat down on their chairs and watched the confrontation.
“Place still stinks,” Capper commented.
Captain Puma mocked him, “Oh, I'm sorry. We're down a butler today. Camper.”
“Where is he?”
Captain Puma took off her apron and said, “You know, I dreamed of this.” She chuckled. “You wanting something from me, and me watching you squirm like a worm on a hook.”
“I’m so flattered that you dream of me,” Capper replied. “I haven’t given you a thought ever since I left.”
Captain Puma slammed her paw on his table and exhaled, “Obviously. You have your perfect little life, don’t you?” Capper did not answer and Captain Puma asked her customers, “Doesn't he have the perfect little life?”
"Yeah," The feline customers agreed with Captain Puma.
Raph chimed in and said, “Well, I'm sure it is, because you're not in it.”
Capper’s friends reacted, “Oooh.”
Captain Puma did not like the sound of that and her face was filled with anger as she faced Raph.
“Oh, you think you know…”
Capper shouted, “Hey!”
Captain Puma turned her attention to him, forgetting about Raph.
“Listen, I know you got a score with me, but if you wanna settle this now, game on. I see no need to bring the king into this.”
Captain Puma chuckled, “It may be a little unnecessary, but, ugh, it is so much fun. Here's the deal.”
Capper sighed, “Of course, there's always a catch.”
Captain Puma sat down on her chair across the table with Capper and put her right arm on the table. “If you win, the king is free to go.”
Capper was not convinced.
“Hmm?” Captain Puma said.
Capper sighed and put his right arm on the table as well.
Captain Puma told him, “Don't you wanna know what I get if I win?”
“Still dreaming.”
The two cats held each other's paws and started to arm wrestle with each other as the crowd watched.
“Mmm, last time I checked, you walked away from us. So how did that work out for you, huh?”
Capper signaled, “On three.”
Captain Puma said, “One...”
Capper continued the countdown, “Two...”
“Three!” The two cats said in unison.
The match was on and the crowd watched as the two felines battled in an arm wrestling match.
“You know, that whole being friends with the ponies act. Ugh. Never bought it for a second. You could stick a crown on a villain, but you're still a villain,” Captain Puma stated.
Capper told her while struggling, “I changed since I left and I never looked back. And you can slap a pirate hat on, but you're still Fishy.”
Capper tried to shift his arm to the right and made her lose by scaring her, but it did not work.
Captain Puma laughed, “Okay. I see how it is.”
Capper was on the verge of winning the arm wrestling match as Captain Puma chuckled.
“If I win, you bring me Beezen's wand.”
Capper remembered hearing the witch's name, and said, “What?”
Captain Puma slammed Capper's arm into the table and won the match. Her crew celebrated and cheered for their captain while Capper’s friends were upset that he lost.
“Now… if you want your king back, bring me Beezen’s wand to my ship tomorrow at 12:00 o’clock, noon. Sharp.” And before she walked away, “Oh, and if you blab… you can kiss your king goodbye.”
Captain Puma laughed and blew Capper a kiss until she went back to work. Capper on the other hand was unhappy and exited the fish shoppe while his friends followed him.
Some time ago, on the land of Abyssinia - a kingdom full of anthromorphic cats roam around the land. In the market area, a light blue cat with a coat, a hook, a sword, and a pirate hat entered and the workers of the market were scared seeing the pirate cat as it made its way to a shoppe called Petey’s Fish and Chips. The pirate cat entered the café and puts its sword in the sword check bin before going to his table where the rest of the cat pirate gang sit. The blue pirate cat grabbed some newspaper from his coat and sticked the newspaper on the bulletin board with a pin.
Then, a lioness wearing a red trench coat with spikes and a pirate captain hat with feathers entered from the kitchen and placed her pal’s food on the table. She saw the newspaper with a cover picture of the Ninjas, Mane 7, Discord, Starlight Glimmer, hippogriffs, Captain Celaeno, and Capper in a group shot where they saved Equestria from the Storm King’s empire.
The lioness growled and threw a piece of food at the newspaper as the pirate crew laughed.
“Poser,” The lioness said.
“Traitor,” The light blue cat called.
“Hello.”
The lioness called and the rest of her pirate crew threw pieces of food at the newspaper.
“Oh, I would love to wipe the smile off their faces. You know what I mean?” The light blue cat said.
The lioness turned her attention to the big black cat who was chewing his own food. “Willy. You wanna quit choking down on some sushi and get with the program?”
Willy gulped, “Yeah, what they said.”
The lioness said, “That little traitor. Who left us in the dark.”
The light blue cat continued, “Who turned his back on us.”
“Who said you weren’t big or bad enough to be in his gang,” Willy said as the pirate crew fell silent. He continued, “Back when we were kids. Come on, you guys remember. He called her Fishy and the name just kind of…”
The lioness glared at Willy as he finished, “…stuck.”
“Alright, look, we have Capper’s turf now. He can stay in that boring town of Ponyville or wherever he is now…”
“Gary, that’s his turf now,” She pointed at the picture. “And I want it, too. We should not be getting his leftovers. Gary, Willy, and me, most of all, Captain Puma.” She asked Gary, “What’s my name?”
Gary took off his hat and bowed, “Puma.”
“What’s my name?”
“Mmm. Puma.” Willy answered while chewing a piece of his food.
Captain Puma repeated her question by singing, “What’s my name? What’s my name?”
All of her pirate crew answered in unison, “Puma.”
[Captain Puma]
This is all hands on deck
Calling out to you boys and girls
I'm gettin' tired of the disrespect
We won't stop 'til we rule the world
It's our time, we up next! (Crew: Next, next)
Our sail's about to be set (Crew: Set, set)
They ain't seen nothing yet
Tell 'em who's in charge so they don't forget
[Captain Puma]
What's my name?
What's my name? (Crew: Puma)
Say it louder
What's my name?
What's my name? (Crew: Puma)
Feel the power
No one's gonna stop us
Soon the world will be ours
What's my name?
What's my name?
What's it? What's it?
Say it loud
The crew then began to do a slow dive across their table, walk and rise up again, with Puma walking beside them with Gary walking behind her.
Captain Puma
All eyes on me, let me see 'em
(Puma, Puma)
What's it? What's it?
Say it! Say it!
They then got up and spread out, with Puma moving her arms together like a circle doing a dance.
[Crew]
Puma-ah-ah-ah!
Puma, Puma, la-la-Um
Puma, Puma, la-la-Puma
Puma, Puma, la-la-Um
Puma, Puma, la-la-Puma
The crew huddled up in front of the captees.
Puma!
They separate when Puma comes up from the centre.
[Captain Puma]
I'm the queen of this town
I call the shots, you know who I am
I don’t need to wear a fake crown,
Stand up to me, you don't stand a chance
It's our time, we up next (Crew: Next, next)
My crew's as real as it gets (Crew:Gets, gets)
The worst are now the best
Puma and Gary touched swords together and sang together as well.
[Captain Puma and Gary]
And leaving us here will be their last regret
Puma moved around with her crew while holding her sword and swung it around.
[Captain Puma]
What's my name?
What's my name? (Crew: Puma)
Say it louder
What's my name?
What's my name? (Crew: Puma)
Feel the power
Willy and the rest of the pirates grabbed a big chair, which Puma then sat on it and they lifted her with the chair up in the air.
No one's gonna stop us
Soon the world will be ours
The two then put the chair and Uma down.
What's my name?
What's my name?
What's it? What's it?
Say it, say it
Gary then took off his coat, leaving him in his white ripped tank top. He began to take over the song.
[Gary]
You know what they say
Bad girls have all the fun
Never learned how to count
'Cause I'm number one
Ready, here we come
We always get our way
It's a pirate's life, every single day
Hey!
The crew began to sing a bit with Gary while Puma winked at him.
She's the captain
I'm the first mate
Enemies seasick, can't see straight (Crew: Puma)
Call 'em fish bait, throw 'em on a hook (Crew: Puma)
Puma's so hot they get burned if they look (Crew: Puma)
Gary helped Puma onto her feet as she stood onto her chair. Puma then took over again.
[Captain Puma]
Oh!
She then moved her arms around to the music, while the crew kneeled down and moved their bodies.
It’s all eyes on me, let me see 'em
Gonzo picks her up and puts her on a big crate, as she continued to dance.
I see your eyes on me, boys
Hey!
She twirled around the crate and her crew, until she was brought back to the deck.
You know what my name is
Gary then ordered Willy, “Dance over there.”
Willy did so on the sidelines and Gary joined Puma onstage.
[Captain Puma]
Say it, say it louder!
[Captain Puma]
Hook me!
[Gary]
Ha, ha!
Puma was just standing there onstage with Gary, as the crew members were slowly crawling towards a huddle with them.
[Gary]
Ho!
They moved their arms as they did a pose and moved around more.
[Captain Puma]
Come on!
Puma then came forward from the centre of the crew and began singing again.
[Captain Puma]
What's my name?
What's my name? (Crew: Puma)
Say it louder
What's my name?
What's my name? (Crew: Puma)
Feel the power
The crew were moving around swinging their swords and just generally having fun.
No one's gonna stop us
Soon the world will be ours
What's my name?
What's my name?
The crew then moved around while singing. Plus, Puma began doing a dance with her paws and her crew did the same.
Captain Puma
Ooh, say it louder
(Crew: Puma, Puma)
Ooh, say it louder
What's it? What's it?
Say it, say it
The crew then began to do their own thing around the ship like sword fighting, spinning around, even tormenting Willy a bit. Gary also put his coat back on and went to join his crew mates at their table.
[Crew]
Puma, Puma, la-la-Um
Puma, Puma, la-la-Puma
Puma, Puma, la-la-Um
Puma, Puma, la-la-Puma
Puma, Puma, la-la-Um
Puma, Puma, la-la-Puma
Puma, Puma, la-la-Um
Puma, Puma, la-la-Puma
The crew then put Puma’s throne on a barrel and Gary helped her up on it.
[Captain Puma and her crew]
Puma
Puma and her pirate crew laughed until the boss of the café threw an empty dish at Puma from the kitchen, but she ducked.
“Shut your clams!”
“Boss!” Captain Puma shouted.
“These dishes ain’t gonna wash themselves.” Her boss called from the kitchen.
“It’s fine. It’s fine. Because when I get my revenge, I will take it. We’ll steal all the precious treasures in every kingdom and after that, hello early retirement. They’re gonna forget that old, sleazy cat, and his little pony friends. And remember the name…”
“Fishy!” Willy shouted happily.
Puma then got an angry look on her face and looked at Gary and nodded. Gary then looked up at Willy with a smirk and pointed his head at the door.
“Okay, alright,” Willy said as Gary lead him to the exit. When they got there, Gary kicked Willy out of the shoppe. After Gary went back inside, Willy sneakily tried to get back in, but Gary stopped him with his hook. Willy held both his hands up and sat down on the side of the shoppe, looking dumbfounded and cluelessly stupid while Gary went back inside again.
Author's Note
Captain Puma - voiced by Cindy Robinson (Amy Rose from Sonic Boom), sung by Laura Marano (Ally from Austin & Ally): She used to work in Fish and Chips diner and now she is the captain of her feline crew of pirates, Capper’s old girlfriend, and Captain Celaeno’s archenemy. She is sassy, loyal, determined, strong, ambitious, and a natural-born leader. Though she has a tough exterior, she cares deeply for her crew along with the other felines who are being mistreated. She is devious and would use any possible way to keep her rival wrapped around her finger, like kidnapping King Thaumus in order to pressuring Celaeno into handing over Beezen’s wand. Despite the opinion of Celaeno and Puma's other enemies, Twilight believes that Puma is just "an angry girl with a bad plan" who wishes to be heard, and "not so different from Celaeno."
Gary Hook - voiced by Roger Craig Smith (Sonic the Hedgehog from Sonic Boom), sung by Thomas Doherty (Harry Hook from Disney’s Descendants): Captain Puma’s right-hand man. He is prideful, sneaky and always ready to hook someone, especially his enemies. He prides himself on being wild and unpredictable, off-kilter and a little mad. His only disappointment is the fact that he has to carry a hook with his hands rather than possessing one instead of a hand.
Willy Softpaws - voiced by Travis Willingham (Knuckles the Echidna from Sonic Boom), sung by Dan Green (Knuckles the Echidna from Sonic X): The muscle of Puma's pirate gang. He is a thick-headed, happy-go-lucky guy who is brawny and acts before thinking. He is very loyal to his friends, has a concern for the well-being of others, and does his best to keep up with Puma and Gary.
