A group of friends gets displaced into Equestria as skylanders. Most of them are dragons

This is tagged as Spyro the dragon but is a mlp x Skylanders crossover. There is simply no Skylanders tag so it will have to do.

Frederik, Jason, Fred, Keith, Barry, Mateo, Kaitlin, Kellie, Kendal and Chadwick are all good friends who met at a game expo a couple years back, all cosplaying as their favorite Skylander. One day when they were all hanging out at Keith's house. A weird box is dropped at his front door, which contains figurines of their favorite Skylanders, all wearing a accessory they were currently wearing.

The moment they all grab their respective figurine, they all black out and wake up in the middle of a clearing in the whitetail woods.

This series will be complicated for you to understand if you don't know about Skylanders. I personally only have played the games and will only write lore around what i know and the games. Each character will unlock the different forms of their Skylanders. If a Skylander doesn't have a rerelease (example being one of the Skylanders in this story), or not enough forms. They will get custom forms picked by myself.

You may ask what counts as a form for them? Anything basically. A special figurine such as a glow in the dark? Special form. Lightcore? Special form. Etc.

HOW DID THIS GET FEATURED ON THE FIRST DAY?!

Chapter one: Strange figurines

Keith opened the door, looking around. "Who knocked on my door?"

Looking down, he saw a strange box with his name and the name of his friends on them, he raised a eyebrow in curiosity and lifted the cardboard box, finding it surprisingly light. "Must be a random prank with some idiotic things in them.

Walking back to the living room, he heard the voice of one of his friends, Fred, address him. "Hey, keith! Who was the person at the door?"

"Hell if i know, they dropped a carboard box to everyone's name and left before i opened the door."

"That's kind of suspicious. Why did you even pick it up?" The voice of another of his friends, Chadwick asked.

"It's light as a feather so there's either nothing or nothing important, it's fine. Let's just see what's in that thing," He retorted, putting the cardboard box on the table and opening it with a knife, revealing more, smaller boxes inside, ten to be precise.

"What the?" Keith took one box and looked at it, seeing it has Fred's name on it. "I think there's one for all of us. This one's yours, Fred," he passed it along to his friend, pulling the others out and giving them to the respective member of his group of friends.

"Alright! Let's see what's inside already!" Kaitlin's voice was filled with excitement, replacing her previous confusion and suspicion as she barely waited and nearly tore open her box to see what was inside.

Doing the same, the rest of the group all opened their box and pulled out what was inside.

"Huh, Custom skylander figurines." Came out Mateo's voice as he looked at the Cynder figurine in his hand and the Spyro figurine in Barry's hand

"No mean to alarm, everyone. But why custom figurines? And why do the only thing that change is some weird accessory on each?" Kendal asked as she looked at the custom sonic boom figurine in her hand, the figurine was of series one sonic boom but had a different position, having Sonic boom lying on her belly with her front paws folded in front of her and her back paws in a splooting position, her wings gently folded on her sides. The only difference despite the post being two gold ring on her tail.

"Wait. That's a exact scale down replica of my hunting knife!" Fred blurted out in astonishment, looking at the camo figurine in his hand. It was also the series one figurine but it's head was turned to look at his hand, which held the replica of a large knife. A small belt was also around his waist to hold the knife when it wasn't used.

"now that i think about it. That necklace is the same i have." Keith said as he looked at the Bash figurine in his hand. It was the series two variant, but bash was sitting instead of his usual position, his rocky tail curled around his side. His head was held up high, as if proudly showing the necklace hanging on his neck with an authentic gold nugget as a pendant.

"Wait. Spyro has a wedding ring... And Mat's Cynder as well. And their the exact same as ours." Barry was getting worries as he looked at the two figurine. His spyro figurine was the series two variant, but he had a more relaxed look on his face and he leaned slightly on the left. He also had a wedding ring on his right front claw

Mateo's Cynder figurine was of series 2 as well. The figurine looked overall more relaxed, her head tilting to her right and her wings folded on her back. She was leaning on her right slightly as well. She also had a wedding ring on her left front claw.

If put together, The spyro and Cynder figurine would be leaning against each others lovingly.

"Weird. Mine just has a beanie like mine." Jason was slightly disappointed by his figurine lack of originality. it was of series one Zap. The water dragon looked as if he was in the middle of skating on ice with his paws. He also had a black beanie made out of wool tucked neatly on his head.

"Huh. I swear that bracelet has the same thing on it as mine." Frederik remarked as he looked at his Sunburn figurine. Having only one version of him ever made, Sunburn figurine was the series one. The Drag-oenix was preening one of his wings instead of rearing on his hind legs. He also had a leather bracelet with unreadable words engraved on it.

"Oooh! Whirlwind may only have a small accessory as a plus, but she's rocking that hair clip!" Kaitlin exclaimed as she looked at her Whirlwind figurine. It was of series one but was gracefully laying on top of the small cloud under her, her right wing having a golden hair clip with a six pointed purple star a the end of it.

"My glasses fit Flashwing well." Kellie nodded to herself as she looked at her Flashwing figurine. It was the series one variant but was in the pose of the Lightcore variant. Flashwing also had a pair of matte black glasses perched on her snout which gave her a bit more charm.

"I do guess mine resemble my mother's old gold earrings." Kendal remarked as she took a closer look of the golden rings on her figurine's tail.

"huh. That's a nice addition to Drobot. Wonder if it'd be possible to do that in real life." Chadwick was impressed as he looked at his Drobot figurine. It was the series one variant in the pose of the Lightcore variant. It was looking at a phone bound in a contraption that linked back to the dragon's armor on it's back with metal poles.

"Alright. So we all have weird but pretty cute custom figurines of our favorite Skylanders now." Barry stated as he looked at everyone's figurine while they all gave their different form of agreement on the matter.

They all idly chat with each others about the figurines and what they were going to do with them, when Keith suddenly staggered in a middle of a conversation with Kendal, grabbing his forehead with his free hand. "Uggh..."

Kendal react almost immediately, coming closer to him and helping him stay balance. "Keith, are you okay?"

Keith rubbed his forehead and nodded, trying to clear his head. "Just a sudden dizziness. It's probably nothing."

"Don't you, "it's probably nothing" me mister. I know how you are and i know you will try to avoid taking care of it when it can become a problem. So go sit down." Kendal spoke in a tone of authority that left no room for arguing but still was kind and had the same warmth a mother would have to her child.

"Fine, "mom", i'll go sit down." Keith rolled his eyes at her words as he sat down. Kendal was the mother of their group, taking care of all of them and making sure none of them forgot to take care of their own wellbeing.

"And don't get up from that chair. if you need anything, you tell me and i'll get it for you." Kendal still had her stern yet kind tone to her voice as she proceeded to keep near Keith in case he needed anything.

Soon enough, they all slowly started getting dizzy and Keith promptly passed out first on his chair, soon being followed suit by all of his friends.

Keith is woken up rather roughly as something jerks him around.

"Wake up, Keith." A robotic and monotone voice speaks right next to his head.

Begrudgingly, Keith groans as his eyes flutters open, closing again slightly at the bright lighting before opening again, coming face with a draconic robotic head.

"Oh what the fuck?!" Keith jumps back in surprise at the sight, his panic quickly spiking as he looks around quickly and realize he's in the middle of a clearing. "Who the fuck are you?!"

"Keith, Calm down. It's me, Chad." The dragon answers in his still monotone voice.

"How the hell do i know you're not lying to me?"

Chad uses the contraption on his back to show his phone, and gives further proof by unlocking it.

Keith looks at him dumbly before sighing. "Okay, there's no way anyone else could figure how to open YOUR phone, so you're definitely Chad. What the fuck happened?"

"I don't know. But we got transported in some weird forest. And we're now Skylanders. Don't think this is a dream, i already punch one of my front legs and i felt it. You also probably felt me shaking you around."

"Yeah i did." Keith paused for a second. "Wait, We're all Skylanders? Oh shit, You're Drobot!"

"Yup. I quickly put together who is who. It seem we basically transformed into our custom figurines, I have my phone, you have your necklace, Barry and Mat have their wedding rings, Kendal has her mother's earrings, Jason has his beanie, Kellie has her glasses, Kaitlin has her hair clip, Fred has his knife and Fritz has his leather bracelet."

"Huh. So we're like, all transformed into our favorite Skylanders?"

Chad nodded as he mention to his side. When Keith looked where he mentioned he noticed the rest of the group chatting amongst each others, Barry and Mat still being all lovely-dovely and cuddly while Kendal was still calming down a slightly stressed Jason.

"Usually i would say Dope. But we're in the middle of who knows where and we don't know how we got here." Keith sighed as he looked at the group, the gears turning in his head before he locked on Mat, who was now Cynder.

"Something's wrong, Keith?" Chad asked, looking at the group to try and see what was wrong.

"MAT'S A FUCKING WOMAN NOW?!" Keith finally blurted out, startling everyone, who all just realized that point and looked at Mat, who proceeded to blush and lean more against Barry.

"Uhm... Yeah, i guess i am now." Mat's voice was of a higher pitch than what Keith was used to hear, perfectly matching Cynder's voice from the game.

Shaking his confusion and surprise away, Keith looked at the couple. "So, What's gonna happen with you two now? Since, you know. Both gays."

"We're bisexual, dumbass." Answered Barry, glaring slightly at Keith before wrapping a arm around mat and pulling him in close. "So it doesn't change a single thing. And besides. It means we won't have to adopt now."

Mat's face became even redder at his husband's bold words. "B-Barry!"

Keith laughed, soon followed by Jason, Kendal and Fritz.

Taking the following hour to calm down completely, the ground find themselves just hanging out as always as they figure out how their new bodies works.

Suddenly, Kellie, who was laying on the grass by herself, starts muttering to no one in particular. "I wonder if we have access to all our moves... Do we have to unlock them? Or perhaps just learn how to do them? Will we need soul gems for our last powers, Do we have access to the other series move or are we stuck at the series our figurines were at? Would that mean we're able to access different sorts or so to say? Like me changing into jade flashwing? Ehh most likely not for that last one. But Barry should still do warning and control his emotions..."

"Something wrong, Kellie?" Keith asks. He was on his back, his legs hanging in the air while looking at her. He'd been doing that for the past twenty minutes, Quickly understanding what the true Bash saw in Flashwing when they first met.

"Nothing, just wondering how we will use our moves and what not. Which, by the way," she pointed a paw at the couple. "Barry. You'll need to keep control of your emotions. We wouldn't want you to turn into dark Spyro and go on a rampage if you can't control it. It'll mean you'll have to make sure he keeps calm when you're with him, Mat."

"Why would i turn into dark spyro? Isn't he like just a color alt in the Skylander games?" Was Barry's response.

"Right. You've never went that deep in the lore. Dark variants of Skylanders are canonically the same as their original counterpart. Except corrupt by darkness. Spyro for example has lingering petrified darkness in him. Which you most likely have as well, which is how he can become dark spyro. But Spyro learnt to keep cool and harness it. You, on the other hand. never did. So we'll need training on this." Kellie answers

"Alright. Regarding everything, let's have a small brainstorming session, everyone." Kendal clapped her claws while talking before getting up and joining the rest in a circle.

"First thing i think we should address. One of us needs to be the leader of the group. And count me out of this one." Keith said, sitting next to Kellie.

"I mean. Kendal always was the mom of the group but Barry is the social one who makes all the plans for us to meet. So why not him?" Kaitlin asks, looking at the couple sitting next to each others.

"I could do that. It'd fit the fact I'm Spyro now too." Barry chuckled.

"Great, now that that's settled. Anything you guys think we should do?" Kendal asked everyone.

"We should cut this short for now. We're in the middle of a forest and we don't know what might live here. So we need to learn at least our new body's two primary moves. And for all of us that has wings, try and see if you can get the hang of flying." Came Mat's opinion as She kept leaning against Barry.

The others pondered her opinion but soon agreed, their mini meeting being cut short as they all dispersed to start learning their moves.

Keith quickly found himself bored, having quickly learnt his primary attacks. I mean it was literally a tail swing and going into roly, poly, mode. Nothing more simple, though he knew he was far from the true Bash's speed when rolling. he'd need more training.

Feeling the need to explore, Keith sprang up to his legs and turned to the group. "I'll go explore real quick! Gonna try and find a river and some food, maybe come back with some wood as well."

He didn't wait for his friends to answer and started rolling away, having a fun time as he passed in between trees. It was surprisingly easy to guide himself when he was rolling.

He quickly came at a stop as he heard running water, going towards it and finding a crystal clear river. "Perfect. I was starting to feel thirsty."

Keith eagerly drank from the stream, enjoying the feeling of the cold water slipping down his throat and letting out a content sigh after that.

He took a small pause to peer at the lake, his gaze soon shifting itself to look at the necklace on his neck, the golden nugget on it gleaming in the sunlight.

He sat down and took the necklace in one of his front paw. "Thank goodness whoever or whatever brought us here let me keep my necklace. I don't know what i'd do if i had to leave it behind."

He looked up at the sky, a saddened smile on his face. "If you can still see me, Dad. Even if not anymore the Son you are used to see. I promise, i'll make you proud."

Staying like this for a couple minutes. He shook his head as he got up. "No use mourning on the past for hours. I've got work to do."

He began rolling again in a random direction, keeping track of his path to find his way back.

A couple hours later, he found himself back at the clearing, pushing six wood logs that were easily two times as long as him and as thick as him.

"I'd ask what took you so long, but seeing those logs i think i have a idea." Kendal said, slightly annoyed at how long he took as she had started to get worried.

"How did you cut whole trees down anyways?" Chad asked as he came into view, looking at the six logs and seeing how their extremities were anything but cut properly, it just looked like someone had ripped them off.

"Observe!" Was Keith's reply as he took on a dumb smile, walking over to a practically dead tree and making a spin, dragging his tail in the air and swinging it at the tree in the spin, breaking the tree and making it fall.

Chad sighed as he shook his head in disappointment, swinging his wings forward and towards the logs, shooting his tactical bladegears and cutting the ends of the logs correctly. "Sadly, as much as this seemed like a good idea, Keith. It's useless. We can't use any of the logs unless it's from the dead tree and we still need to be careful."

"Huh? Why's that?"

"Simple. Sap is toxic if heated into fumes. So we need dry wood to be firewood. The closest thing we'll get is the dead tree you just struck down."

"Well that's good to know for next time. I guess meanwhile we all have something to sit on near the campfire."

"That's at least that, true." Chad sighed as he moved the dead tree and cut it into smaller portions, setting up a campfire. "Hey, Fritz. need a little help with fire."

"You got it!" Fritz took a deep breath and blew out a flamethrower in a small burst, lighting the campfire.

They soon all gathered around it. Barry was the first one to talk. "Alright. This will have to do for tonight. We'll sleep in this clearing and then leave the forest together tomorrow and try to find where we are. We'll need food for tonight though."

"I found a few berry bushes on my way back. But i don't know if we can eat them." Keith answered.

"I'll do it. Just bring me to 'em and i'll taste those berries." Fred said as he got up.

"Fred, you are not going Anywhere." Replied Kaitlin and Bash at the same time.

"Eh, Kaitlin can just heal me anyways."

"Oh, right. I forgot i could do that." Kaitlin facepalmed.

"Wait, Isn't Whirlwind's healing rainbow her soul gem upgrade?" Keith asked

"Yeah, but it turns out we won't need soul gems, which is good. I sorta just, always had it when i got transformed i think. Discovered it when the idiot that is Fritz decided to scare me and i wanted to blast him. but it just healed him instead."

"Huh, neat. Well, follow me you two. i'll lead you to the bushes." Keith nodded towards where he came from and started going back, followed by the two.

They quickly found themselves at a couple of bushes filled with berries of a blue color.

Fred plucked one, and without a warning, threw it in his mouth and ate it.

Keith and Kaitlin looked at him dumbfounded before Kaitlin shook her head and shot a rainbow at him. "Idiot."

"Hey! I didn't even need that, i was perfectly fine. Those berries are safe."

Sighing at Fred's usual antics, Keith turned to the bushes. "Let's take enough for everyone and go back."

The two nodded and helped Keith move enough berries without damaging them and come back at the camp.

The food was then distributed between the ten members of the group who ate a simple but filling meal while talking together.

A couple hours later, after night fell, everyone except Keith was asleep. Keith was simply sitting in the middle of the clearing, looking up at the stars and the pale moon.

He heard shifting and saw Jason moving in the corner of his eyes. "Can't sleep?" he whispered.

"Nope, you?" Jason whispered back with a yawn as he sat next to Keith.

"Not really. I decided to just watch the stars until i was too sleepy. And take the time to let everything settle in."

"I can understand you on that. Pretty crazy how we're video games characters in a random forest, for all we know in a different world completely, that wouldn't surprise me at this point."

"Yeah. Wonder what will happen to us. But we can only just wait and see what life offers."

"You ever thought of if anyone might miss us? Or even remark we are gone?"

This made Keith silent Snort in amusement and roll his eyes. "Nah, for others we were just a bunch of idiotic adults enjoying a kids game and collecting overprice figurines while paying thousands for realistic suits of said figurines. Plus, we don't really have anyone else but us ten, don't we?"

Jason chuckles awkwardly. "Yeah, yeah i guess so," he makes a small pause and sighs before speaking again. "Don't tell this to the others yet. But i have a gut feeling, that i know where we are. And if i'm true Kaitlin is gonna be annoying about it so i hope i'm wrong."

Keith raises a eyebrow before shrugging. "Fine, sure. I'll keep the fact you have a idea where we are a secret," he then lets out a yawn. "Well, seems like sleeps catching up to my body. I'll go sleep, Goodnight Jason."

"Night, Keith." Jason answered as Keith got up and left to find a comfortable spot to lay into.

Jason looked at the pale moon, seeing nothing in particular. "I wonder if i'll get along with Dash if my theory of the world we're in is right."

Chapter two: Ponyville

It’s a brand new day, Keith is sitting in a circle around the remaining embers of the campfires with the others, Jason pouring water on it to extinguish it completely.

“So, let’s get straight to the point since we’re all awake as best as we can. What direction do we go in? And what do we do if we run into the locals?” Barry asks once Jason finished his work, his eyes looking at every other members of the group.

“Dumb idea but, why don’t we stick to the true Skylanders names and act at least slightly like them? I feel our personalities fits them correctly already anyways.” Keith proposes.

“Yeah, like how stubborn you are.” Fred chuckles.

“Oh fuck off watermelon man.” Keith retorts.

“But in all seriousness, we can say we’re from a far away place called the Skylands, we’re the last team of Skylanders who escaped after a rather tragic accident we rather not name. The name of the Skylanders are our professional names while at work and our real names are the ones we tell friends to call us. What do you all think?” Keith finishes his explanation, getting a murmur of agreement from the others as they thought over the idea.

“Yes, i like the idea. Is everyone okay with it?” Barry asks, looking at the others. Seeing no one disagreeing, he continues. “Alright, so we’ll go by our Skylanders name and use the idea Keith, or well, Bash, proposed. Let’s just pick a random direction and head there.”

With a nod from the others, they all got up and followed Barry as he marched into the forest, knowing they had a long road ahead.

To their surprise, it only took them around a hour to find the edge of the forest.

Jason, being the adventurer he is, didn’t wait, ignoring Barry’s call to be more careful as he sprang out of the forest, shielding his eyes with one of his front paws due to the light.

Once his eyes got used to the blinding light not being shielded by the trees anymore, he blinked a couple times and looked around.

He was about to talk when he spotted a place his knew too well, his mouth left agape. There, in the distance. Sat a massive forest with dark trees. Even from this far, he could sense the uneasy feeling coming from the forest.

Jason quickly turned around and back into the forest he came from, facing the group. “Alright, i know where we are. But i need you guys to hold on Kaitlin tightly before i explain. And i mean tightly,” he put more emphasis on his last word as he shoot a glance at his friend turned dragonicorn.

“Is this related to what you told me Yesterday night?” Keith asks, a eyebrow raised, getting a nod from his friend, he shrugs and walks to Kaitlin, wrapping his front paw around her torso, blocking her wings and keeping her next to him.

The gesture made Kaitlin grumble as she wiggled uncomfortably in his grasp. “Hey! Why do i need to be hold like this anyways?”

“Simple,” Jason answered. “We’re in another world, one that you and i know very well and the others probably only by name as it’s a TV show. And i know how you will react the moment you realize.”

Kaitlin looks at him in confusion before a thought strikes in her mind, her eyes shooting wide open with a gleam. “Are we in the show i think we are?!” her voice did not betray her excitement.

Jason let out a sigh, knowing where this was going. “Yes. Yes, Kaitlin, we’re in my little pony friendship is magic.”

The Dragonicorn let out a loud squeal, -one which would be enough to attract any nearby dogs-, before trying to shoot up in the air to find the town she wanted to see, only to be blocked by Keith’s paw. “Let me go, Keith! I need to go see Fluttershy! I need to go pamper her!”

Jason sighed and rubbed his temples with one of his claws. “And this is why i asked her to be held back, thank you, Keith.”

Keith gave a grunt of acknowledgement to his thanks as he held back the squirming Kaitlin.

“Kaitlin, just calm down already! We can’t just go there and act like we know them and reveal we come from another universe and know literally what will happen in the future!”

“Shut up, Jason! I need to go see them! Plus we can stop all the problems that will happen and make everything better!”

“Have you forgotten what happens in the season five finale with every time Starlight changed even a small detail about what happened?!”

“We can stop that! We know every weakness of the villains, Jason! Hell, we can even stop Gen five from happening!”

“And I will not let you do this! At least wait until Twilight has her castle if she doesn’t already!”

Kaitlin grumbled, mumbling curses under breaths. “Fine! But the moment her and the others comes back from dealing with Starlight for the first time I’m telling them everything! And I’m Pampering Fluttershy as soon as i can!”

Jason let out a relieved sigh. “Thank you. At least you can agree on this. You can let her go, Keith. And Fritz, do you mind going with her to make sure she doesn’t do anything bad? You should get along with Fluttershy. As long as you pull too much pranks and don’t fry her animals.”

Keith let go of Kaitlin, sharing a small glare with her as Frederik nodded before responding. “Can do, I’ll keep a eye on this idiot to make sure she doesn’t talk without thinking, don’t worry.”

“Alright! Then now for our next direction, i’ll take the lead to lead if you don’t mind, Barry. Time to go to Ponyville!”

After following the outskirts of the Everfree forest, the group finally finds itself in Ponyville.

Jason leads them through the town as the group sticks together, not caring about the ponies looking surprised and slightly scared at the sight of the group of dragons.

After some time, they arrive in front of a massive library carved in a living tree. “So we’re at maximum in season four before the end.” was Jason’s reaction to the sight.

“Barry, i’ll let you take back the lead on this. You know better how to interact with others, and i don’t feel like talking to a character i know so much and feel like i could accidentally divulge information about her.”

Barry nodded and went back to the front of the group as Jason walked back into the group. He cleared his throat before knocking on the door.

There were sounds of books falling and a childish male voice using PG curses before the door opened, revealing a small, bipedal purple dragon with a green scale mohawk and a grey-ish green underbelly. “Hello, how can i help you...”

The small dragon’s voice died down as he looked at Barry, his mouth agape and his eyes wide, Barry on the other hand. Was slightly surprised to see a dragon as he didn’t know the show. Especially one that looked so young. “Hello, little one. Is there any adults here we could talk to?”

The young dragon, Spike. Fumbled on his words before clearing his head with a shake, the excitement clear in his eyes. “Twilight! There’s a group of dragons at the door! Come quick!”

A purple unicorn walked down the stairs to the upper floor of the library. “Come on, Spike, your prank won’t get me. There’s no way there’s a actual group of dragons here in ponyville.” Twilight rolled her eyes before looking at the door, locking up upon seeing the Skylanders.

Barry cleared his throat again, feeling like his throat would be sore if he had to do it over and over every time he met someone new. “Hello. I’m Spyro, Spyro the dragon. Leader of the last team of Skylanders. May we enter and speak with you in a more private setting?”

“I-i- sure, i guess? I’m Sparlight Twikle, I-I mean, Twilight Sparkle! C-come on in!” Twilight fumbled on her words more than once, her face reddening in embarrassment at her display as the group entered the library.

Spike excitedly leads the group to a table, the others deciding to let Barry and Mat be the ones to take the seats as they sat around them, Twilight and Spike sitting at the other side of the table. “So, uhm. Who are you all? And what are you doing here in ponyville?”

“As i said,” Barry began. “We’re Skylanders, a group designed to protect a far away land called the Skylands. The land is hidden under a powerful magic barrier casted by the greatest Portal master of all who protected the Skylands for over a millennia, Master Eon. Let me introduce you to my group and friends.”

He opened his right wing and draped it around Mat, pulling her closer to him and making her blush. “First off, my second in command and wife, Cynder.”

Mat awkwardly gives the two a wave. “Hello.”

Keeping her close to him, Barry waves a claw towards Kellie. “Next is the one girl of unknown origin who is also made of literally crystals, Flashwing.”

Kellie let out a chuckle and gave a formal bow. “Pleasure to make your acquaintance.”

Barry moves his claw to Keith. “Next is the stubborn one, Bash.”

Keith rolled his eyes at the remark. “Sup.”

Spyro snorted and moved his claw to point at Kendal. “Next one is the one who is figuratively and in a sense literally the mother of the group, and the only non dragon, Sonic boom.”

Kendal gave a warm smile and gave a small nod as a greeting. “It’s a pleasure meeting you two, dears.”

Barry smiles and moves his claw to point at Fred next. “This one is the idiot gardener, Camo.”

Fred gave him a glare for a long minute before immediately changing a big smile. “Hey there! Want a melon, little guy?” he smiled as he made a melon grow in the table in front of Spike.

Spike, not knowing that his fate was sealed, grinned happily. “Wow, Thanks!” he touched the melon, which exploded in his face, splattering it in melon juice, making Fred, Keith and Fritz burst out laughing.

Barry sighed. “Sorry about him, he’s quite the prankster with these melons of his.” he then moved his claw to point at Kaitlin “Next is the half unicorn, half dragon hybrid and main healer of our team, Whirlwind.”

Kaitlin smiled happily, barely able to contain her excitement over seeing Twilight Sparkle with her own eyes. “Greetings!”

Barry rolled his eyes and pointed at Jason. “Next is the speedster who somehow sees a group of electric eels as his family, Zap.”

Jason rolled his eyes. “First, they raised me, so go fish off. Second,” he turned to look at the two. “Hello there!”

Keith interrupted Barry, responding to Jason in a gruff voice. “General Kenobi.”

The two laughed, making Barry shake his head with a sigh before pointing at where Fritz is. “Next is the one who will most likely outlive us all as he’s quite probably immortal, Sunburn.”

There’s a silence before Barry looks where he pointed to find Fritz wasn’t there. “Now where is this idiot?”

Twilight suddenly let out a yelp of fear and jumps in her chair when he appears next to her in a burst of fire, laughing. “Gotcha! Also, heya!” he winked and teleported back to his place in a small burst of fire.

Barry groans and apologizes again before pointing at the last one, Chad. “And lastly is the nerd and robot fanatic, Drobot.”

Chad gives a simple nod. “Greetings.” he gave no emotion off in his greeting, his voice still monotone and robotic.

Twilight blinked a couple times at Chad’s greeting before shaking her head. “It’s nice to meet you all, Everypony. I’m Twilight Sparkle, Princess Celestia’s personal student.” she smiles before a question ran in her mind. “What are you all doing in Equestria if you don’t mind me asking?”

Barry answer her only with a vague answer. “It’s complicated... Something happened that made so we had to leave the Skylands after becoming the last team of Skylanders, and we ended up here in Equestria and we are in need of a place to stay for the moment.”

Twilight’s eyes narrowed a little, something didn’t make sense. “But shouldn’t you be in a place closer to the sea if you came from another land?”

Barry hadn’t thought of that but remembered something that could work. “Oh, it’s simple, really. Portal masters have the power to teleport Skylanders where they are needed via portals. Those portals can lead pretty much anywhere the portal master wants. Master Eon opened a portal to send me and my team in a different land at a random choice, for us to find rest and a place to stay. We ended up being teleported to a nearby forest.”

Twilight’s eyes widens slightly at the explanation. “Oh! I’m sorry for thinking you were lying! I didn’t mean to.”

Barry chuckled. “It’s fine, don’t worry. But on another topic, would you have a place for us to stay for some day until we can make enough money to afford our own place?”

Twilight thinks for a bit before nodding. “I’m sure my friends wouldn’t mind taking some of you in! But you’re gonna have to make groups. I’m not sure most of my friend can take more than two of you, and there’s six of us, so six groups should be good.”

The Skylanders nod and make six groups. Spyro and Cynder. Bash and Flashwing. Whirlwind and Sunburn. Sonic boom and Drobot. And finally, Zap and Camo, both being alone on their own.

Twilight leads everyone after their groups are ready, firstly going over to Sugarcube corner. “Alright, this is where my first friend, Pinkie Pie, works. As a fair warning, she can be extreme.”

The group nods and enters after Twilight, finding themselves in a rather cozy bakery with a colorful interior, a Pink pony with a poofy mane at the counter, who quickly Notices Twilight and the group. “Ohhh! Twilight! You brought new friends! I knew there were going to be somepony in ponyville! You see, my ears were twitching and my eyes were fluttering, that means somepony new was going to arrive and settle in ponyville! So i looked everywhere, but i didn’t find somepony new in ponyville all day! So i thought that my pinkie sense was playing me a joke, but that’s usually when my mane bounces then my knees twitches before the other signs, so it wasn’t a joke from my pinkie sense! So i looked more, but still found no one! How was i supposed to throw a welcome to ponyville party if i didn’t find who i needed to throw the party for?! Then i thought that maybe you knew, so i was going to come look for you after my shift, but then you appeared with those weird dragon thingies and i almost gasped, that’s what my Pinkie sense was saying! A new group arrived in Ponyville! Now i need to go make a welcome to ponyville party for them!”

To say the group was surprised was a understatement, They all had various reaction, Barry and Mat were blinking multiple time with surprised faces, Keith had a look of pure confusion, Jason was rubbing his temples with a claw, Kaitlin was holding back her laughter, and the rest just looked stunned, confused and impressed at the lungs of the pony. Chad, was as monotone as usual since he became Drobot.

Twilight sighed at Pinkies antics. “Pinkie, I know you’re excited to throw our new friends here a welcome party, but first we need to get them settled in. They don’t have homes and i was hoping to see if you could take a part of their group in until they can get their own house.”

Pinkie gasped. “They don’t have a place to live?! Of course i can take one of them in!”

She lowered herself under the counter and reappeared in front of the group the moment they blinked. “Heya! I’m Pinkie Pie! Call me Pinkie!”

The friend group jumped in surprise slightly, except Chad who only blinked. Fred was the first one to approach her, getting a idea as he got how she was. “Hey there! I’m Camo, Want a melon?” he gave her a playful wink as a vine sprouted from under him and grew a melon in front of her.

Pinkie, the all so innocent fourth wall breaker, smiled happily. “Woah! A melon, for me?! Thanks!” she went to grab the melon in her hooves, only for it to explode in her face, making Fred explode in laughter, quickly followed by Keith and Fritz, and soon by Pinkie as well. “Oh, that was a good one! You got me there!”

They all laugh for a while before catching their breath back. “I can already tell you have a good sense of humor, Pinkie. Mind if i stay with you?” Fred asks suddenly.

“Sure! I’m sure Mr and Mrs Cake won’t mind you!”

“Alright! Then let’s go, you can show me around!”

“Yay! Come, i’ll guide you around the bakery!” Pinkie lead the grass dragon away.

“Well, this was interesting to say the least...” Barry said, blinking a couple times, while Twilight let out a sigh.

“Sorry about how she acts, Pinkie is just... Pinkie. There’s no real way to explain it, you’ll get used to it.”

“Eh, it’s fine don’t worry. Who are we heading for next?” Barry asked

“Oh, next is my second friend, Rarity. Let me show you to her boutique.”

With that, Twilight led the rest of the group out of the bakery and to a building resembling a colorful carousel. “This place is the Carousel boutique, home and work place of Rarity.” Twilight said as she knocked on the door.

“One second!” A posh, feminine voice called out from inside. A few minutes later, the door was encased in a blue aura and opened, revealing a white unicorn with a purple mane. “Oh, Twilight! What can i do for you, my friend?”

“Hello, Rarity, we have some new residents here in ponyville that aren’t your normal ponies, and they are in need of a place to stay for the moment until they can afford their own. I was going around asking the others if they wouldn’t mind taking one or two of them and decided to ask you.” Twilight explained

“Oh, Of course, my dear. I’m sure i could take two lovely new residents here in Ponyville until they can find a place for themselves, come, enter, let me prepare tea for us.” Rarity smiled and moved away from the door and towards her kitchen.

“Thank you, Rarity.” Twilight replied as she walked inside and mentioned for the group to follow.

Once inside, they looked around as Rarity came back with a set of tea, setting it on a nearby table. “Now, darling. Who are those new residents you were talking abou-” her sentence was cut short as her eyes landed on the group, most importantly, Kellie. “Oh by Celestia!” she ran to Kellie, her eyes inspecting her gem-wings, pushing the other Skylanders in the process. “Your wings are just so Magnificent!”

Kellie was taken aback at first but she quickly shook it off and smiled. “Why, thank you, Ma’am. I must say, your coat and mane are also Fabulous. I’ll take you work in something related to Fashion?”

Rarity nods as she kept gushing over Kellie’s Crystal-based body. “I’m a fashion designer, my dear. Tell me, have you ever thought about modelling? With a body as beautiful as yours you’d make a great Model! I’m sure you would look even better in my dresses! But i digress,” she cleared her throat and retreated from the group. “I’m Rarity Belle, Fashionista and seamstress, a pleasure meeting you all.”

The group introduces themselves, and Kellie steps up. “If you wouldn’t mind, Rarity. I’d love to stay with someone with such a fashion sense as you. I just hope you won’t mind the one i am in a group with, Bash. He can be stubborn and look uncouth, but he can be quite the sweetheart when you get to know him.”

Keith shot her a passive aggressive smile at her jab at him.

“Oh, of course. I would gladly take you both in. I am sure Sweetie belle will love making friends with you two as well when she comes back to school. Come, let me show you around the boutique.” Rarity smiled and lead the two deeper in the boutique.

Twilight smiled, glad of how generous her friend, Rarity was. “Next one we’re going to see is my third friend, Fluttershy.”

The seven Skylanders nods and follows the purple unicorn as she leads them to a small cottage on the outskirts of the Everfree forest, outside of the town.

Once at the door, Twilight stops before knocking. “Fair warning, Fluttershy might be scared of you all at first. She is really kind, but she is also rather afraid of dragons. But i’m sure she’ll warm up to you all quickly.”

The group nods and Twilight knocks on the door. “Fluttershy, It’s me, Twilight.”

The door soon opens, revealing a yellow pegasus with a pink mane and tail. “Oh, hello, Twilight. What do you need?”

“Well, we have a couple new residents in Ponyville but they currently don’t have any place to stay until they can make money. I was wondering if you would mind taking one or two of them in for some time? Though, they are not ponies, so please don’t freak out when you see them.”

“What do you mean by that, Twilight?” Fluttershy asked as she peered behind Twilight to take a look at the Skylanders, letting out a ‘Eep’ the moment she saw Barry and Mat, quickly ducking back in her house and closing the door shut.

Twilight lets out a sigh at her friend’s reaction. “Fluttershy, it’s okay. They won’t hurt you.”

Yielding no response, she was about to try again before Fritz stepped up. “Hold on, let me try something. From how her cottage is and the many animals around here, i’ll presume she likes all animals, correct?” at Twilight’s nod, Fritz smiled, knowing his idea would mostly likely work. “Alright, then me try something.”

He cleared his throat, speaking loud enough for Fluttershy to hear. “You know, after you told us she liked all animals, it’s a shame she didn’t even try to greet us, one of us is part phoenix after all.”

A quiet gasp of surprise was heard from behind the door as it opened just a little, Fluttershy’s head barely poking through as she looked at Fritz, her eyes wide in amazement.

This prompted him to chuckle. “Yep, knew it’d work. Hello there. I’m Sunburn. I’m part phoenix and dragon. I assure you, me and my friends won’t hurt you.”

She shyly opened her door fully and looked at him and the others, her body shaking a bit. “S-Sorry... I-I’m just really scared of dragons... N-Not that i mean any offense, of course!”

“It’s alright. Here, me and another one of my friends are on the same small group we formed, and we are the ones who look the less like dragons.”

“O-Oh... A-Are you two sure? I-I also have a lot of pets and i wouldn’t want to bother you with them if any of you don’t like animals...”

Kaitlin quickly ran up to the three excitedly. “Oh, don’t worry! Me and Sunburn here love animals too, so don’t worry! Also hey, I’m Whirlwind!”

Fluttershy jumped in surprise with a small squeal, making Fritz bonk Kaitlin in the head with a claw, eliciting a small glare from her. “You scared her, idiot. Sorry about her, Fluttershy. She can be quite hyper sometimes. But she’ll be calmer if you accept us.”

“I-It’s nothing, don’t worry. And i-if you really don’t mind, i-i guess i can take you both in for some time..”

Kaitlin was about to practically yell but stopped herself and cleared her throat. “Great! We’ll even help you with the animals don’t worry.” she smiled

Fluttershy simply gave a shy nod and stepped out, mentioning them to come inside, which they did.

Twilight leads the group away to a apple orchard. “Next one is my fourth friend, Applejack.”

They walk into the orchard, the Skylanders taking in the calmness of the place. After some time, they can hear sounds not to dissimilar to someone hitting wood with a blunt object.

Twilight leads them in the direction of the sound, revealing a orange mare with a blond mane and tail, both tied in a ponytail. She’s also wearing a setson, and is currently bucking a apple tree with her back legs, making the apples from the tree fall precisely inside wooden baskets around the tree. “Hey, Applejack!”

Applejack looked towards where the voice came from and smiled at the sight of her friend. “Howdy there Sugarcube. What can i do for ya?”

“Well, Applejack. I was wondering if you and your family would mind taking in one or two ponies for a few days? You see, we have some new residents in ponyville that come from far away, and aren’t really ponies to be exact... And they currently don’t have anywhere to stay. They came to me and after discussing i decided to go around asking the rest of our friends if they could take a small part of their groups.”

“Ah, well, I might be only able to take in one of ‘em, Twi. And they’re going to need to be able to help on the farm.”

At that, Jason stepped up. “Well, i’m the only one that’s not in a group of two, the other one is already with the Pink one, Pinkie Pie i think it was? Anyways, just show me what to do and i can help as much as i’m able to. The names Zap, by the way.”

Applejack hummed as she looked at Jason for a good minute before Nodding. “You should be good enough. Come, let me show ya around the farm and to the rest of ma family.” Jason nodded and followed Applejack as she left.

“Well, i expected this one to take longer with how she seemed to be, no offense of course.” mat spoke up, watching the two leave.

“Applejack is a honest and hard working mare. But she’s still really kind and wouldn’t hesitate to help others if she can.” Twilight said with a smile as she lead the rest away.

“The next one we’re meeting should be your last friend, if i am correct?” Chad asked in his monotone voice.

Twilight nodded as she glanced at the sky. “The last one is Rainbow Dash. The problem will be finding her as she could be napping anywhere at this time. She’s a blue mare with a rainbow mane and tail.”

“Suits the name.” Barry chuckled as he looked around.

The rest of the group helped Twilight in her search, taking them a while before Chadwick stopped them. “Above us, there’s a rainbow tail hanging from a big cloud. I suppose it is her?”

Twilight looked up to where he mentioned and nodded. “That’s her. Now we need to wake her up,” she cleared her throat. “Rainbow!”

There was no response from the cloud.

Twilight sighed and tried again. “Rainbow Dash!”

There was still no response.

Chad walked up to Twilight and put a claw on her shoulder. “Let me try.”

Twilight nodded, walking back a bit. “What is he going to do?” she asked the others.

Kendal sighed, knowing very well what was about to happen. “Drobot, don’t go too hard and do warning!”

Chad only gave a nod as a response, his eyes locked on the cloud as he used the help from his technologically advanced helmet to make multiple calculations for the trajectory of his attack. Once he was sure of his aim. He used the armor to shoot two lazers from his eyes directly on the cloud, purposefully missing the sleeping pegasus by a inch while making Twilight gasp, and wake up the Pegasus in a start.

A blue mare with a rainbow mane and tail, just like Twilight described, glared down from the hole in the cloud. “Hey! That’s uncool, i was napping in peace here! Who even are you? Are you looking for a fight?!”

Twilight let out a groan as Rainbow flew down in front of Chad’s face. “Rainbow, he doesn’t mean harm. He just... Had weird method to wake you up, i suppose.”

Rainbow blinked and looked at Twilight. “Hold on, Twilight. Let me just beat up this armored lizard.”

“I’m a dragon, for your information.” Chad answered.

Twilight sighed and stepped in between the two. “Rainbow, he’s not a enemy. But it’s true you should apologize, Drobot. You could have hit her.”

“My calculation made it so the chance my hit on accident was bellow 1%. I have nothing to be sorry for.”

Kendal shook her head and walked towards the three. “Sorry about him, he’s always like that. Also, Hello. I’m Sonic Boom, and this dragon next to me is Drobot. Pleasure to meet you.”

Rainbow dash Narrowed her eyes slightly at Kendal. “I’m Rainbow Dash, Fastest flyer in all of Equestria,” she turned to Twilight and whispered. ”What is a Griffon doing here, Twilight?”

“She’s not like Gilda, Rainbow. I was actually going to come here to ask you if you wouldn’t mind taking those two or the other two in for some time, they just arrived in Ponyville and don’t have the bits for their own house.”

Rainbow Dash looked at the two, mostly at Kendal, before sighing. “Fine. But you better watch yourself, Sonic boom. I know how you Griffon are with your egos, i already dealt with one, and won’t hesitate to do it again.”

Kendal Smiled. “I assure you, I am different from the other Griffons you may have met, i promise i will not be causing you any Troubles.”

Chad nodded. “And i will not be doing anything against you either. I have no need to as you aren’t a enemy.”

“Alright, Dope. Follow me, i’ll show you to my house!” Rainbow dash grinned and took the air quickly, soon followed by Kendal and Chad.

“Well, it seems the only one left is me and my wife. I suppose we’ll be staying with you, Twilight Sparkle?” Barry asked

Twilight nodded. “Please, you can call me Twilight. And yes, you two will stay with me, just try and don’t mess the library, please.”

Mat chuckled. “Oh, don’t worry. Besides Sonic boom, you have with you the calmest of our group. Spyro is our leader after all. Well, if you can pass his cocky side.”

Barry gave his wife a small headbutt before chuckling. “Oh, you. You know i got better on this point.”

Mat laughed and nuzzled his cheek. “I know, I know dear. I’m just messing with you.”

Twilight chuckled at their antics. “I can see why you two are together. You seem to be perfect to each others. Come, let us go back to the library. i’m sure Spike will be excited to know you two are staying with us.”

Keith is laying down comfortably on the floor of Rarity’s living room, chuckling at the face the small unicorn in front of him made. It was Sweetie Belle, Rarity’s little sister. “So you’re really a dragon coming from a hidden place called the Skylands? And you’re a protector of that place?!”

Keith laughed and nodded. “Yup. Me and my friends are one of the elite Skylander teams out there. And we were also the only team with almost only dragons. Dragons were rare to see in the Skylanders ranks. But there was a few of us.”

Sweetie Belle gasped. “Woah! That’s so cool! How much of the Skylands have you seen?!”

“Practically everything. You see, there was this really important man named Eon. He was the strongest and wisest portal master that the Skylands ever saw. And he was the boss of all the Skylanders.”

“Portal master?”

“Mhm. It’s a job only few can get, if they are destined for it. It allows them to open portals to any place they wish for the Skylanders. Master Eon used them to help us travel quickly so we could help others quickly.”

Sweetie belle continues asking questions to Bash, who patiently answers them all, until she blurts out something. “You should totally come and meet the other Crusaders! I’m sure they’ll be amazed by seeing you!”

“Crusaders?”

“Mhm! It’s a group with me and my two other friends, it’s full name is the Cutie Mark Crusaders, or CMC for short! Since we don’t have our cutie marks yet, we regrouped together and try and earn our Cutie marks together!”

Keith Hummed. “You could used a bit of adult supervision, just in case you do anything rash on accident. Sure, i’ll come.”

“Yay!” Sweetie bell jumps up in excitement, running to the kitchen where Rarity and Kellie are having tea. “Rarity! I’m going to the treehouse and Bash is coming with me!”

“Alright, alright, Sweetie. No need to yell it out, just stay clear of troubles.”

“I will!” Sweetie belle smiles and runs back to Keith, Grabbing one of his paws and tugging him. “Come on, let’s go!”

Keith chuckles and gets up. “Alright, lead the way.”

Chapter three: CMC, Party, and Fruit punch

“Alright, girls. What should we try next to earn out cutie marks?” Sweetie belle asks the rest of her group. As per usual, the three fillies, Sweetie Belle, Applebloom and Scootaloo, are sitting in their treehouse, discussing their next cutie mark crusade. But this time, they have a guest in the form of Keith. Who is simply laying down near them, listening without a word, his head laying on his front paws and his eyes closed.

“Ooh! Idea!” Scootaloo shouts, making the two others look at her.

“What is it?” Sweetie Belle asks.

“How about we try Bungie jumping?!”

“Yeah, no. I’m shutting this idea down immediately.” Keith says as he opens his eyes looks up at Scootaloo.

“Why’s that? You’re not even part of us! Sweetie Belle just brought you here as a guest for no reasons. Why even are you?”

“The name’s Bash. And as for why I'm shutting this idea down is because it’s too dangerous.”

“Psssh. Dangerous? Come on, we’ve done things way more dangerous before, Bungie jumping isn’t That dangerous, there’s a Elastic to hold us and prevent us from crashing on the ground!”

“What if the equipment you’ll get is of too low quality, and the elastic or harness snaps mid-jump? I can also bet you would want to do it without a professional, meaning you could set things not properly and the elastic could be attached in a wrong way and simply nod hold you.” Keith states with a straight face.

A mental image of one of them, flattened into a pancake upon hitting the ground, makes the fillies shiver, as they look at each others and nods together. “Yeah, maybe it’s a bad idea...”

After a small silence, Applebloom turns to look at Keith. “But anyways, what even are you? Ah don't mean to sound rude, but Ah've never seen anypony like ya in Equestria before.”

“I’m a rock Dragon. And i’m also part of a group of Skylanders.”

“If you’re a dragon, shouldn’t you have a pair of wings?” Scootaloo asks, tilting her head slightly.

Bash takes a deep breath as one of his eyes twitch, knowing it was a harmless question but it still hit a spot he didn’t like. “That, is not something we are to talk about.”

Sensing it’s maybe something he wouldn’t want to talk about, Applebloom clears her throat and changes the subjects away from his lack of wings. “What’s a Skylander?”

Sweetie Belles eyes lit up at the question, eager to hear his story again, which makes him chuckle and raise himself in a sitting position. “If we’re going in that direction, then get comfortable, i have a story to count to you three.”

After the three nods and get comfortable, Keith clears his throat as he began to explain the story. “The Skylands is a far away, beautiful place, hidden to prying eyes by a magic spell. It’s a magnificent set of hundreds of islands, some even floating in the sky, where peace reigns and fights evil. The Skylands are protected by two kind of people, Skylanders and Portal Masters. Portal masters are chosen by destiny itself to become one. They are sage, and powerful creatures who wields enough magic to summon portals around the Skylands to send the Skylanders and help fight evil.

“Skylanders, on the other hand. Is a group composed of many different creatures, from elf and dragons to mages and trolls, who defends the Skylands against evil. At first, Skylanders were chosen by the greatest Portal master of them all, Master Eon. He would seek out creatures worthy of becoming a Skylander and would propose the idea to them, most of whom, accepted the proposal. In the last few years, an academy for Skylanders has opened, for any creature in the Skylands to try and become a good Skylander.

“The academy was protected by great Skylanders, and even a few special Skylanders, each with their own rare powers of weapons. There were the Giants, The Swap-force, Trap Masters, Superchargers, and the Senseis. They are all groups of extremely powerful and respected Skylanders. The Giants are a group of massive Skylanders who were easily the size of houses. They were capable of lifting and throwing boulders, punching holes in the ground, and even moving mountains. The swap force were a squad of sixteen powerful and smart Skylanders, all with their own specialty. After a accident in a magic volcano, they were thought to be gone forever. That is, until reappeared years later, with the new ability to fuse with each others, swapping their top half to one of the other’s bottom half.

“The Trap Masters were powerful Skylanders wielding even more powerful weapons made in a rare crystal only found in the Skylands, Traptanium. The crystal had the powerful ability to trap anyone inside if they were weakened enough, and would glow in the presence of a villainous entity or more Traptanium. The Superchargers were a group of Skylanders trained to pilot powerful Vehicles, Carriages you wouldn’t need to pull. Those Skylanders could supercharge their respective vehicles, making the vehicle faster and stronger, as well as making the Skylander faster as well. It was even said a supercharged vehicle could tear a hole in space and time to travel even faster.

“Finally, there were the Senseis. Respected Skylanders who were masters of their respective fighting styles. They were considered one of the strongest group of Skylanders and would only be called for the most dire of situations.”

The Cutie Mark Crusaders all listens intently, enthralled in the story told to them. “Is there any more kind of Skylanders?” Scootaloo asked.

Bash chuckles at their reaction and gives a nod. “There was many more Skylanders defending the Skylands from evil. All of them were powerful and just, even if they weren’t part of one of the special teams. In the Skylands, there was a total of eight elements, and all Skylanders wielded one. The elements were Life, Undead, Fire, Water, Tech, Magic, Wind, and earth. There was also two rare elements that only a few Skylanders had. Light and Darkness.”

“So, what element are ya, bash?” Applebloom asked.

Bash laughed, confusing the three slightly. “I thought that would be obvious with me being a rock dragon. I’m of the Earth element.”

“I wonder if it means Miss Flashwing is of the light element... She is really bright and seem to radiate in the light...” Sweetie Belle mutters.

“Flashwing?” Scootaloo asked, confused.

“Flashwing is one of my fellow Skylanders staying in Ponyville. She is currently residing with me at Rarity’s and Sweetie Belle’s home. They were kind enough to let us stay until we can afford our own place. And no, Flashwing isn’t of the Light element. She’s of the Earth one, like me. Out of all of the team of Skylanders I’m part of that is here in Ponyville, none of us are of the Light or Darkness element. Spyro, our leader, is of the Magic element. His wife and mate, Cynder, is of the Undead element. Zap is of the water element, Camo is of the Life element, Sunburn is of the Fire element, Drobot of the Tech element, and both Sonic boom and Whirlwind are of the Air element.”

“Ah remember hearing Applejack talkin’ to someone an’ calling ‘em Zap.” Applebloom says.

“Do you have any more cool stories about Skylanders, Bash?” Scootaloo asks, excited.

Bash smiles and nods with a small laugh. “I have more. How about i explain to you all one of the biggest title of honors for the Skylanders, the title of Legendary Skylanders.

“An old tradition among the ranks of Skylanders was to have a event in the form of a Gladiator-like battle every few years. Held in a giant arena of sports. The winner of the said event would be immortalized as a magical navy blue and gold statue, that would overlook the arena and act as a guardian, the Legendary Skylanders. It i said that in the more dire times, a group of special Portal Master could awaken the statues so they could help fight and protect the Skylands from Evil.”

The three little fillies are amazed by the story told to them. Scootaloo shakes her head and speaks up. “Do you know of a Skylander that won the event?”

Bash chuckles, which soon turns into a hearty laugh. “You three are talking to one of them.” he says with a wink.

The three girls Gasps in unison, their eyes as wide as plates. “Please, tell us how you won!”

Bash chuckles again. “That’s a story for another time. Instead, how about i give you three a small display of what I’m capable of?”

Their eyes lit up and they all scream eagerly at the same time. “Yes, please!”

Bash smiles and leads the girls outside as to not damage it. He walks into the small clearing and turns to the three. “Alright, i’m going to need you three to stand a bit away, would not want an accident to happen.”

The three girls immediately backs up a safe distance and sit down eagerly, watching him. “Are you three Ready?” At their nod, Bash smiles and gets in position, cracking his neck. “Then it’s time to Rock and Roll!”

Bash raises his head suddenly, a pillar of rock appearing in front of him, he spins around on himself, letting his spiky tail hit the pillar and smash it, sending the biggest rubble into another rock and cracking it.

He grins at the sound of the gasps behind him before he ducks in himself and start rolling around at a fast speed, crashing into a mostly dead tree and breaking it clean off, leaving a stump and a fallen trunk. He rolls around for some other time before coming to a stop and getting back up. “Let’s try something a bit harder, something i haven’t done in a while.” Keith focuses on himself and his elemental source, Raising his head with a small cry and making another pillar appear, this one being in the shape of a giant fist giving a uppercut. He smiled and swipes his tail at it, sending the rubble into the trunk of the tree he just broke, before summoning another uppercut pillar, this time right under him as he uses the momentum to jump at the last moment and send himself up in the air, rolling into a ball and crashing into the ground, kicking up dirt and dust. When the dirt cloud settles, he is proudly sitting in a small crater he created with his fall, not a single scratch on him. “How’s that, you three?”

The CMC is left with their mouth agape and their eyes wide. Scootaloo is the first one to speak. “That... Was... So... Cool!” She yells, throwing her front hooves in the sky.

Keith chuckles and walks closer to the three. “Oh, it was nothing. Some member of the team i’m in are more flashy and even more powerful than me. You should see Cynder in action, Flashy and powerful at the same time.”

The three’s eyes are still gleaming as they look at him. “That was still so cool!”

Bash chuckles again. “Alright, alright, let’s get back inside you three, so you can continue your shenani-”

He is cut off as a grey mare suddenly crashes on the ground between them.

“Are you alright?” Keith asks as he looks down at the pegasus. She’s a grey pegasus with a blond mane and tail, her flank adorning bubbles as her cutie mark.

“Oh, that’s just Derpy hooves, don’t worry, that happens all the times, she’s fine.” Scootaloo says, looking down at the mare.

The mare in question got up and shook her head, looking around with a dumb smile, seeing she didn’t break anything, she reached in her saddlebag and pulled out four envelopes. She slips three of them which are pink colored to the CMC, before handing Bash a white one and flying away.

Bash is confused as of the look the three fillies share upon seeing their letter but shrug it off, he carefully opens his letter and looks inside it, finding a colorful paper with text written in a somehow even more colorful ink.

Hey there, Bash, It’s Pinkie!

I could’ve told you what i needed to tell you in person last time we saw each others, but i didn’t find it convenient enough, and this is more convenient, especially for the Fish Fishcat watching over us. But anyways!

I need you to come to Sugarcube corner quickly, like really really quickly.

-Your new friend. Pinkie pie!

His reaction was a simple. “What..?” As he looked at the later again in confusion, shifting his gaze to the three. “You three know what this is about?”

The three shrugs, putting they letter away. “Nope, But we need to go somewhere, so we’ll see you later, bye!” Sweetie Belle says before the three dash away, leaving him alone in the clearing.

“Alright...” Keith rereads the letter and sighs before shrugging it of, putting the letter away and ducking in himself as he started to roll towards town.

Keith arrives at the front of the bakery, seeing the rest of his group here, the moment he stops, Barry speaks up. “Let me guess, letter from Pinkie Pie?”

Keith nods. “Yup, I assume you all have been too?”

They all nod, and Fred sighs. “I have no idea why, she pushed me outside, told me to not enter until all of us were here, and went back inside while closing the door.”

“Well, now that we’re all here. We can enter.” Keith says.

“True, let’s go. i have a feeling i should enter first...” Barry says as he approaches the bakery and hesitates to knock, before shrugging and opening the door, entering inside, followed by the other Skylanders.

They are met with a pitch black room. Confusion is shared among them as Barry opens his mouth to gather fire in it and light the room, but is startled as the light suddenly turns on, and a chorus of voices yell. ”SURPRISE!”

All of the Skylanders gets startled at the surprise -except Drobot who doesn’t react-, finding all of Ponyville inside of the bakery, the place adorned with Decoration and a big batter reading “Welcome to Ponyville!”.

Pinkie Pie bounces away from the Ponies and towards the group. “Did i get you all? Did you get surprised? Did you like it?” She rapid-fired the questions at them.

“By Eon i did not expect that... I can safely say you surprised all of us.” Barry said with a chuckle, the fire dying in his mouth.

“Great! Let’s go, all of you! let’s enjoy the party!” Pinkie grinned and bounced back inside the groups of ponies, blending in them quickly.

“Well, let’s do as she said and let’s enjoy it.” Barry said. The other nodded and they split up to enjoy the party.

Camo was in the middle of the party, near the table with a lot of pastries and the bowl of fruit punch, a cup of fruit punch in his own claw. In front of him was Applejack, who was sitting, a hoof around a cup of fruit punch that she was holding. “Ah must say. Your ability to grow plants like Pinkie says sounds mighty impressive.”

“Oh, it’s nothing really, just a small ability i have since i’m a Skylander of the life Element. Care for a melon?” Camo said with a mischievous smile, making a large melon grow in front of her.

In the blink of a eye, Pinkie Pie was next to Camo, harboring a big grin, before suddenly. Her ears twitched and her hooves itched. “Ooh, Ooh, Twitchy ears and itchy hooves! that means you should put your cup away before touching that melon, AJ!”

Applejack, knowing better than to not listen to Pinkie’s Pinkie sense, put her cup on the nearby table before reaching a hoof to touch the melon, which promptly exploded in her face, making Camo and Pinkie burst out laughing at the sight of Applejack’s face coated in melon juice. “Oh, that was a good one Cam’! Your explody-melons are so funny!”

Camo Chuckled. “Thanks, Pinks. And sorry about that, Applejack. I just can’t pass the opportunity for a good prank with an exploding melon. No hard feelings?”

Applejack shook the melon juice off her face and laughed. “Ah must say, that was a good one. No hard feelings, Camo.”

“Oh, please. Call me Fred. Camo is my professional name as a Skylander.”

“Then ya can call me AJ.” She smiled and held out a hoof, which Camo took with his free claw and shook it.

Applejack noticed the strap around Camo’s waist and the handle of his knife poking out of the sheath. “What’s that?”

Camo looked at his Knife, smiled and reached out for it, pulling it out slowly in a non threatening way. He showed it to Applejack. “A hunting knife made by a old friend of mine. He was a master of his craft and did that for my birthday some years back. I kept it with me since then and i take care of it.”

Applejack looked at it in astonishment. She wasn’t a mare interested in flashy things, but she had to admit the blade was beautiful. It was a grey blade with wavy patterns to it. “What metal is this made out of? Ah don’t remember any metals doing this pattern.”

“It’s Damascus. It’s a really complicated mix of two different metal alloys folded into each others, sometimes making thousands of layers. At least, it’s what i know from my friend that told me that.”

“Damascus? Never heard of that.”

“Probably haven’t been discovered here in Equestria then. In the Skylands, The way to make it was lost for quite some time, but was soon found again. But a good quality Damascus knife like this one, out of true Damascus steel. Can cost a small fortune to get.” Fred said, gently sheathing his knife again.

Pinkie, who had pinked her way a small ways away from the two, smiling, before her eyes widened slightly and her tails started twitching. “Ooh! Twitchy tail! Twitchy tail! Something’s gonna fall!”

Everypony nearby started looking around and staying clear of anything that could fall, except the confused Camo. “Fred, Watch out!” Applejack yelled, Making Camo’s look around, his eyes widened as he saw the fruit punch bowl, still filled with fruit punch, heading straight towards him.

“Well, fuck...”

AT THE SAME MOMENT.

Keith and Kellie were talking together, discussing a random topic, until a loud sound cut off Keith’s scentence.

”SPLASH!”

In the distance, Applejack’s voice could be heard. ”Fred! Are ya okay?!”

Keith turned his head to the source of the sound. “I’m gonna check it out.”

Kellie nodded. “I’m coming with you.”

The two dragons got up and walked to the group, their eyes widened when they landed on their friend. “Camo, you alright?” Kellie asked.

“Ehh, I’m a bit dizzy with that bowl falling on me, but i’m fine. I don’t even feel wet, my leaves must’ve absorbed the fruit punch.”

Applejack looked at him worriedly and awkwardly. “Errrr, are ya sure, Fred?”

“Why you asking me? What’s wrong?” Camo asked as he looked down at himself, his eyes widening. He was red, and partly translucent. “What the?”

He brings a claw to his nose, the claw wobbling a bit like it was made of liquid. He sniff the claw a bit, his eyes narrowing. “I’ve become fruit punch...” He mutters.

A random thought runs through his head, making him grin as he looked up.

Keith immediately recognized his face and knew where this was going. “Don’t you dare...”

“Oh i will!”

“Camo...”

Fred took a deep breath.

“Do not!”

"FRUIT-A PUNCH-E FOR EVERYONE-AH!" Camo yelled with a big grin.

Bash groaned loudly and facepalmed. “Seriously?!”

Fred Laughs loudly at his dumb jokes, while everypony around them looks confused.

“Well, Looks like your theory yesterday was right, Kellie. I remember a fruit punch Camo figurine.” Bash whispered to Flashwing.

She blinked and shook her head, being snapped from her confusion and astonishment by Keith as she nodded and whispered back. “We’re going to need another meeting between the others to discuss this.”

Author's Note

This took me less time than i thought. The hardest part of this was writing Applebloom and AJ and not making their accent feel too stereotypical while still making their accent known with the text.
