Futuristic Possibilities

It had been a few weeks since the Mane 6 and the Pippsqueaks returned from their last Unity Quest to help Mystery Incorporated solve mysteries at Camp Little Moose, and to Pipp's relief, the Pippsqueaks said that their parents were really fulfilling their promises and doing better to get along.

In fact, they all decided to go on a camping trip that same weekend.

And now that they were finally home, the Mane 6 decided to go and make their lives a little bit like normal before they had to venture off on their next quest.

Sunny stayed quite busy at her smoothie cart, and Zipp stayed busy helping Hitch with Sparky and solving mysteries together.

Izzy made sure her unicycling business was still rolling without a hitch, and Pipp was quite busy at Mane Melody with Jazz and Rocky.

Misty, only a few days after they had gotten back, had found another way to keep herself busy-- a special spellbook had helped her find her way to a secret room in the Crystal Brighthouse where she could really help her advance her magical skills, and this made her realize that she really had found a special place with the Mane 6... her friends AND her surrogate family.

But, what the Mane 6 didn't realize was that their next quest was going to be around the corner, taking them to a whole new dimension of time, unlike anything that they had ever seem before.

Now... time to get to the story at hoof.

“Morning, Sunny!” Pipp said as she flew over to Sunny’s smoothie stand on her break at Mane Melody. “One Strawberry Ripple smoothie to go, please!”

“Sure thing, Pipp!” Sunny smiled as she put the ingredients in the blender. “Are the Pippsqueaks excited for their camping trip this weekend?”

“Oh, that’s all they’ve been telling me about recently,” Pipp said as she watched Sunny blend the ingredients together. “I’m really happy their parents are finally getting along-- even Peach Fizz’s mom seemed excited.”

“That’s great!” Sunny said as she handed Pipp the smoothie. “I’m glad everything’s working out for them.”

“Hey, guys!” Misty said as she came over with her spellbook. “One Pineapple Paradise, please, Sunny.”

“Hey, Misty! How’s that magic training of yours coming along?” Pipp asked. “And I wanted to ask, is there a spell that could give my mane a glossy texture?”

Misty giggled at this. “One, it’s been going great. Two… I haven’t looked at that yet, but I’ll definitely keep my eyes open for it.”

“Perfect! It would be GREAT to use that on customers at Mane Melody.”

“Hey, guys!” Izzy said as she sat down at the table nearby. “What are you all doing?”

“Taking a smoothie break and discussing our activities from the week,” Sunny said as she prepared Misty’s smoothie before blending up a Kiwipaya Blast for Izzy. “How’s the unicycling going, Iz?”

“Oh, I can’t even belizzle how many ponies need my help unicycling some of their old stuff!” Izzy said as she took her smoothie and slurped on it. “Last week, Rufus had me turn his old couch into a couch AND a trampoline! Oh-ho, and let me tell you… that was a lot of work.”

“Well, if anyone can do that stuff, it’s you, Iz,” Pipp smiled. “Now, where is Hitch and my dear older sister? It would be great if they were here to do casual talk with us too.”

“Guys!” Hitch exclaimed as he galloped over with Sparky on his back. “What are you guys sitting around here for?! Zipp sent a message in the group chat that we needed to get to the Brighthouse pronto!”

“What?” Sunny looked at her phone and realized he was right. “Sorry, Hitch, I had my phone on silent most of the day-- I didn’t see it till now.”

“I’ll ask Jazz and Rocky if they can keep an eye on Sparky while he takes a nap,” Pipp took the dragon into her hooves, “and then I’ll meet you guys there!”

“Sounds like a plan, Pipperoni!” Izzy shouted as Pipp flew back to Mane Melody, and once Sparky was dropped off and the smoothie cart was closed, the five ponies raced to the Brighthouse as fast as they could go.

“Zipp! We got here as soon as we could!” Sunny said as the group skidded into the Brighthouse bedroom. “What’s the emergency?”

“Glad you asked,” Zipp took off her sunglasses and turned to the board next to her. “I’ve been analyzing every Unity Quest we’ve gone on in the past year, and some of the things I’ve found are MINDBOGGLING. For one thing, on a lot of different quests, we’ve helped not only the ones we needed to help, but someone ELSE to find their true purpose or their true family.”

“Now that you mention it… you’re right!” Misty realized, looking at the evidence board. “I remember doing a lot of that now!”

“But that’s not the most mindboggling thing I’ve found,” Zipp said with excitement. “What I found is… the Unity Crystals have the potential to send us to almost any timeline-- maybe even the future!”

“Huh?”

“What?”

This seemed to bring a lot of confusion to the others, until Izzy burst into laughter. “Zipperdoodle, I love you, but I don’t think that can happen… can it?”

“Think about it like this,” Zipp said before pointing to one of the photos. “Remember when we had to go to London and help Basil of Baker Street find Olivia’s father and defeat Ratigan?”

“Oh, yeah! Olivia was SUCH a sweetheart,” Pipp nodded. “One of my #favorite missions of all time.”

“Well, according to my research,” Zipp said, pulling up a date on her phone, “we traveled back to the year of 1897!”

“1897? But… that’s over 150 years ago!” Misty exclaimed with wide eyes. “Exactly,” Zipp nodded. “And remember our encounter with the Sanderson Sisters? We traveled back to the time of 1993, over 30 years ago!”

“So that proves that the Unity Crystals can send us to any time period, past or present,” Hitch said, “but what about your ‘it can send us to the future’ theory?”

“Well, the Unity Crystals have sent us to the past on more than one occasion, and the Unity Crystals have also sent us to the PRESENT to help other friends on more than one occasion,” Zipp said. “So I figured that it was about time that we get a Unity Quest in the future, to kinda balance everything out.”

“Wow… that’s a lot to wrap your head around if you think about it,” Sunny said before turning to the white pegasus. “But good detective work anyway, Zipp.”

“Thanks. But determining WHEN this Unity Quest to the future will take place is another matter entirely,” Zipp said, turning back to the board. “We have to keep this in mind anytime our cutie marks alert us that it’s time for our next mission.”

There was a brief moment of silence before Pipp suddenly gasped in surprise. “Tell that to our cutie marks, sis! Look!”

Zipp looked down at her cutie marks to discover that they were all glowing, signaling that it was time to get going on their next adventure. “All right, everypony, get all your supplies ready,” Sunny told her friends. “We need to meet up at the Unity Crystals in less than five minutes.”

“I'll go get my spellbook!” Misty said excitedly, and everyone rushed around to get their supplies ready in time for their next adventure.

“Keep moving, Twitch... we're close. I can feel the shard close by!”

Allura and Twitch had been trying to track the ponies for weeks since they last saw them, and when Allura overheard some humans discussing some chaos going on around Big Moose Lake, they knew that the Mane 6 couldn't be too far away.

So far, she had detected the star shard at the top of a mountain close to the lake, so she and Twitch climbed to the top of that very mountain to search.

Twitch, unlike Allura, was tired from the long climb and had no interest in searching, and was about to lay down when something inside a glittering cave caught his attention, causing him to speak gibberish and jump up and down to alert Allura.

Once noticing his behavior, Allura approached the cave and looked inside. “Excellent work, Twitch! The star shars we've been seeking for is at the end of this tunnel!”

Twitch laughed excitedly as they entered the cave, walking all the way down to the end, where Allura grabbed the star shard and chuckled maliciously. “Finally... this star shard is MINE!!!”

As she cackled, the star shard in her paw glowed before blasting near the wall, allowing a portal to form, causing Allura to gasp. “This shard is more powerful than I realized... come now, Twitch! We must go through before it seals itself!”

Then, taking a daring leap, Allura jumped through the portal with Twitch at her heels, just before the portal closed.

XXXXXXXX

After a few moments of portal traveling, Allura and Twitch stepped out of the portal, letting it close behind them before they both gasped in shock.

This was NOT a place they were expecting to come to.

Instead of being in some sort of normal town, they were in some sort of skybound metropolis, with rocket cars and buildings supported by tall posts.

Allura glanced around the area, humming to herself. “I've never seen an area like this before... we better find a place to lay low for a while, until we know for sure that those ponies are here.”

Looking around, they seemed to be near some sort of large arena, and Twitch spotted a large storage unit behind the building.

When Twitch fidgeted with the lock, he opened the door to reveal a large area, filled with a few chairs and equipment, and plenty of space to move around. “Well, this isn't... completely disgusting. Maybe if I just...”

Allura looked at her paw and focused her magic as her eyes turned white. Then, she placed her paw on the walls as the ice spread and completely froze the inside of the storage unit.

Twitch stretched and yawned as he laid down and used Allura’s tail as a blanket. “It's not home,” Allura said as she laid her head down for a light nap, “but it will do... for now.”

Then, Allura closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep, waiting for the ponies to arrive so she and Twitch could finish them and take Equestria as their own world to rule.

Welcome to Orbit City/100 Years Ago...

The Unity Crystals glowed brighter and brighter as the Mane 6 poured their cutie mark magic into them, and after a few seconds, that blinding light filled the room, and when the glow ended, the Mane 6 had disappeared, heading into their next adventures.

All the ponies could see were bright colors as they tumbled through time and space, but they didn't mind-- they were way used to this by now.

Within a few small moments, another portal opened, and the ponies crashed with a harsh landing upon the ground.

Sunny was the first to groan, shaking her head to clear the dizziness away. “We really have to get a hold on this 'traveling through portals' thing, cause sometimes we land perfectly, and then the next thing we know...”

“...we land in a huge heap,” Hitch groaned. “Yeah, I get what you're saying here.”

Zipp eventually squirmed out of the pile to look and see where they ended up... and what she saw caused her to gasp. “Guys... you might wanna come see this.”

The other ponies stood up and gasped as well. They seemed to be in some sort of city on earth, but all the homes and businesses were built on columns that allowed the buildings to be elevated into the sky.

The clouds seemed to be a little ways below, meaning that this city probably never got rain or snow from this point.

Misty looked outside with wonder before noticing that they were in some sort of hallway in an apartment building. “Does anypony have any idea what this place is?”

“No... I've never seen a place like this before,” Hitch said before inspecting the sidewalk they were beside. “And I've never seen a sidewalk that moves before either.”

“And I've never seen cars that fly before! Look at that!” Izzy pointed out, causing the ponies to gasp as a rocket-powered car flew past the building they were in. “Guys... forgive me if I'm wrong,” Zipp said, her excitement growing more and more by the minute, “but I think my theory was right! The Unity Crystals DID teleport us to the future, just like I thought that they would!”

“Hey... do you think they still have real dogs in the future instead of robot ones?” Misty asked before pointing down the hall. “Cause there's one right there, and he seems to be on the trail of something.”

When the ponies looked in the direction Misty was pointing in, they saw the dog in question-- he seemed to be a large gray and white Great Dane with a futuristic green collar around his neck, and he seemed to be sniffing the ground heavily, like Scooby did back in their time.

Sunny was the first to step away from her friends and call out to the dog. “Hey there, boy. Where did you come from?”

The dog looked up at Sunny upon hearing her voice, and happily barked and rushed to her, licking her face and causing Sunny to laugh. “Well, he's definitely a friendly dog, that's for sure!”

“Do you think he lives in one of these apartments?” Zipp asked as she inspected the dog's collar. “I don't see any kind of identification on his collar.”

“Huh... you're right,” Sunny said with a frown before turning back to the dog. “What's your name, boy?”

“Astro!” called another voice from down the hall. “Astro, where'd you get off to?!”

“George!” the dog, now known as Astro, barked and ran down the hall, only to collide with his owner and give him a bunch of snobbery kisses.

The ponies saw that Astro's owner seemed to be an older man with reddish-orange hair, a white shirt and blue pants, laughing but trying to push the dog off of him. “All right, all right! Down, boy!” he said, pushing Astro off of him gently. “We were really starting to get worried after you rushed off like that-- what was do important that you activated Supreme Sniffer Mode?”

“Uh... that was probably us,” Pipp admitted as the Mane 6 approached, letting the man yelp in surprise before falling backward on his rear end. “Sorry, we didn't mean to scare you,” Sunny apologized. “We just got here and we found your dog, who I'm assuming is Astro.”

“Heh... yeah, that's our dog,” the man chuckled as he stood up. “Welcome to the neighborhood. I'm George Jetson. Me and my family live just down the hall.”

“Pleased to meet you, Mr. Jetson. I'm Sunny Starscout,” Sunny said, shaking George's hand, “and these are my friends-- Hitch Trailblazer, Misty Brightdawn, Pipp Petals, Izzy Moonbow and Pipp's older sister, Zipp Storm.”

“Nice to meet all of you folks,” George said as she shook the ponies' hooves. “So, how did you hear of Orbit City? Are ya gonna be staying here for a while?”

“We're just visiting,” Zipp admitted. “As for how we heard of this town, well... that's a story in itself. Is there someplace we could go to talk?”

“I can do you something better,” George told them. “Why don't you join me and my family for dinner tonight? You can tell us how you got here, and get a full stomach in the process.”

“That is so generous, thank you!” Misty smiled gratefully. “We would be honored.”

XXXXXXXX

“Well, here we are,” George said as he and Astro led the ponies into their apartment by the moving sidewalk. “Apartment sweet apartment.”

“Whoa whoa whoa!!” Misty cried, trying to maintain her balance until she hopped off. “Phew... that was a crazy ride.”

“We don't have sidewalks like this back where we're from,” Hitch said, “but if we did, I would have to write some sort of rules and regulations for them. You know... just in case someone were to get caught breaking the rules.”

“Sure, Hitch...” Zipp nodded with a smirk. “Sure sure sure.”

“George, did you catch Astro? Who are these ponies with you?”

The ponies turned to see a woman, presumably George's wife, approaching them with intrigue and curiosity. She was a beautiful woman with Uranus auburn hair, a purple dress, purple leggings pearls earrings and two bracelets on each wrist. “Ah, perfect timing! Janey, go get the kids and Rosie,” George told his wife. “We've got some guests for dinner tonight.”

“Ooh, tres chic!” Pipp said as she snapped a few pictures. “You have an amazingly amazing home, Mrs. Jetson!”

“Oh, why thank you,” George's wife, Jane, said with a smile. “Kids! Rosie! Your father has some guests he'd like you to meet!”

Within just a few minutes, the rest of the Jetsons arrived to meet their dinner guests.

First, there was Judy, George and Jane's teenage daughter. She was a teenage Caucasian female with platinum blonde hair tied up in a ponytail, a long red skirt with ruffle, a pink sleeveless crop shirt, and matching pink leggings, and black flat shoes.
Then, there came Elroy, the youngest member of the Jetson family who had blonde hair and wore a green baseball cap.
Lastly, there was Rosie, a robot and the maid and housekeeper of the Jetson family.

Then, to the ponies' surprise, there were two young, quiet winged leopard cubs waiting with the family as well, sitting at Judy and Elroy's feet.

The first one was obviously a female, who had a light blue pelt with purple and pink spots, blue and purple hair on her head, purple and pink feathers on the wings, dark blue eyes, a cutie mark of three water droplets and a black collar around her neck, with a crystal star hanging from it.
The second one was a male, who had blue eyes like his sister, a brownish-orange pelt with black and light purplish-colored spots, and those same colors on the wings, along with a black collar, a cutie mark of a mountain and the same star crystal charm on his collar.

“Everyone, I'd like you to meet Sunny Starscout and her pony pals,” George introduced. “Everypony, I'd like you to meet my wife Jane, my boy Elroy, daughter Judy, our maid Rosie and our little leopard pals, Vega and her brother Orion.”

“Wow, real ponies!” Judy said, approaching Pipp and looking at her wings. “Your wings are so soft! Is there a special kind of conditioner you use?”

“Actually, yes!” Pipp said before giggling. “I think you and I are gonna get along just fine, Judy.”

“Nice jetpack, Elroy!” Zipp said as she inspected the jetpack Elroy was wearing. “Is it fast?”

“Faster than I think you could go with just your wings,” Elroy challenged playfully. “Wanna have a race after dinner?”

“Oh, you're so on!”

Sunny and George watched how everyone seemed to connect rather instantly... well, all except the two leopard cubs, who seemed a little unsure of how to interact with the ponies until Sunny kneeled next to them. “Hey there, cuties. You don't have to be shy with us.”

“Um... we're sorry, Miss Sunny. We've just never been around many ponies,” Orion apologized in a soft tone. “But... you guys seem really nice,” Vega said, brightening a bit. “Where did you guys come from?”

“Why don't you dears tell us about that over dinner?” Rosie asked. “I'll set up a few more chairs at the table.”

“Izzy and I can help you with that,” Misty volunteered before she and Izzy followed Rosie and the leopard cubs away. “To be quite honest, George,” said Sunny, “after you hear our story, I... well... we might need to stay for a little while longer than we anticipated.”

XXXXXXXX

We'll get back to the Mane 6 and the Jetsons in a bit.

Right now, we need to get to a very crucial part of our story, taking place 100 years before this night occurred.

You see, WWE is a worldwide wrestling entertainment company, whose sole purpose was to entertain millions with hard-core wrestling action.

Sometimes, after one of their television broadcasts, some of the WWE wrestlers, also known as Superstars, stayed with some of their VIP fans in order to sign autographs and get pictures...

...and this included some of the flying leopard WWE interns/Superstar trainees.

Amiri is a soft and gentle purple cub with dark and light purple spots on her lavender fur, blue eyes, purple feathers on her wings, a cutie mark of a cloud and a black collar with a similar crystal star tag to Vega and Orion's.
Jaya is next, and she is a confident pink leopard with purple and light pink spots, dark purple feathers on her wings, dark pink and purple fur styled on her head as sort of a mini-mohawk, a cutie mark of a lightning bolt, light lavender eyes, a black collar and a crystal star tag.
Finally, there was Brooks, the only boy leopard who had gray fur, black and light gray spots, gray feathers on his wings, deep brown eyes, a cutie mark of a yin and yang, a dark gray mohawk, a black collar and, like his friends, had a crystal star tag on his collar.

None of them knew where they had gotten the star tags... they kinda just appeared on their collars one night while they were sleeping.

But one thing they did know was they had to have them for some reason.

Now, back to our story.

The cubs were playing in the ring while their mentors (Alicia Fox, Roman Reigns, Jimmy and Jay Uso and Seth Rolins) were signing autographs for fans, when Big Show, a seven foot tall wrestler, confidently entered the ring and caught the attention of several fans. “Yes! Ha ha ha ha... I'm the Big Show,” he decreed. “I'm the future champion! Aha ha ha ha!”

Many fans began to murmur about how huge Big Show was, and eventually, one fan managed to squeeze his way forward. “Excuse me. Big Show! Oh! Oh! Can I have your autograph?”

Big Show looked down at the fan with a suspicious look. “You want my autograph?”

“Um... yes?”

“You want my autograph?”

The fan gulped nervously at this. “I-I wouldn’t have asked if I didn’t.”

That's when Big Show took the paper, happily signed and gave it back to the fan, a proud smile on his face. “You just got the signature of the future WWE World Heavyweight Champion.”

“Wrong, Big Show,” Seth Rollins decreed as he stepped into the ring, past the cubs as the spotlight fell on him. “Everyone knows that I am the undisputed future of WWE, and I will be the champ.”

“But... Seth, you don't have the championship match tomorrow night,” Amiri pointed out. “Big Show does, against the reigning World Heavyweight Champ.”

“Well, not one of you fellas are gonna be the champ when I hold the title.”

Everyone looked toward the giant screen in the arena to see the current title holder, Sheamus, on the screen with his leopard trainee, named Clover, who had green and black spots, a green pelt, black feathers on her wings, blue eyes, a short, dark green mane on her head, a cutie mark of a leaf, a black collar and a star crystal on the collar as well.

Amiri gasped upon seeing Clover while the crowd cheered for Sheamus. “You guys! It's Clover!”

“Clover! Sheamus!” Brooks waved happily. “Good to see you guys!” Jaya said with a smile. “Hi there, everybody in Denver!” Clover said cheerfully. “Oh, it's so good to see you guys again!”

“In case you haven’t heard, Big Show here has earned himself a match with me tomorrow night on Smackdown,” Sheamus told the crowd. “And he thinks he be takin’ my title away from me.”

Suddenly, the entire crowd of fans erupted into boos... even the fan Big Show gave his autograph too, causing Big Show to glare at the fan with disappointment. “I mean... Well, you're okay,” the fan said nervously, “but… Sheamus is better?”

And wasting no more time, the fan quickly ran off to avoid Big Show’s wrath. “Tomorrow night, you're going down,” Big Show promised Sheamus with a growl. “You better find something else to hold your pants up, because you can kiss that championship belt goodbye.”

“Well, Clover and I are just waiting for you in Albuquerque, big man,” Sheamus spoke. “Yeah!” Clover nodded enthusiastically. “Bring it on!”

“Nobody is bringing anything, anywhere tonight.”

Then, the chairman and CEO of WWE himself, Mr. Vincent McMahon, emerged from the tunnel, causing all the fans to go crazy again, and causing confusion among the Superstars and the leopards, wondering what was going on. “Big Show, Sheamus,” Mr. McMahon began, “as Chairman and CEO of WWE, and your boss, I must postpone tomorrow night's match on SmackDown.”

Needless to say… everyone around gave shocked reactions.

“What?!”

“What…?!”

“WHAT?!”

“A massive snowstorm is just about to hit the Denver area. The highway patrol is closing down all roads,” Mr. McMahon clarified. “Big Show… I'm afraid your title match will have to wait.”

“Not again, McMahon!” Big Show said angrily. “I've waited a long time for my chance to get the title. I'm not letting a little frozen water get in my way.”

He began to walk back toward the tunnel, his mind officially made up. “Big Show, wait a second!” Jaya said. “The bus won’t be able to drive if there’s a snowstorm out there!”

“Who said anything about driving?” Big Show called back before he vanished from sight. “He’s not gonna try and fly there… is he?” Amiri asked. “He won’t be able to see anything in front of him if he does!”

“You know Big Show, Amiri,” Brooks sighed. “When something gets in his way, he’ll be sure to try and get past it somehow.”

“All we can do is hope and pray that he makes it through the storm safely,” Jaya agreed, causing Clover to sigh upon the screen. “I sure hope you guys are right.”

XXXXXXXX

Turns out, Amiri was right-- Big Show was using a plane that he had found to fly over Denver and get back to New Mexico for the match, and at the moment, Mr. McMahon was trying to snap him out of it. “Big Show, please!” he said over the radio. “You gotta turn back.”

“Forget it, McMahon,” said Big Show with a smirk. “I'm going to be World Heavyweight Champion tomorrow night. And nothing will stop me.”

Suddenly, the plane started to freeze up from the snowstorm and the plane started to go down. Big Show tried to pull the plane up but he pulled off the steering wheel instead, causing him to growl in frustration. “Dumb technology.”

“Big Show! Turn back!” Mr. McMahon tried to say before the signal got cut off, prompting Big Show to angrily burst through the top of the plane as it went down due to the ice and snow coming from above. “You want a piece of me, gravity?! You think you can take me down?! Let's get it on!”

And the last thing Big Show remembered was screaming at the top of his lungs as the plane went down into the storm.

“And so, the Unity Crystals teleported us to Orbit City for our next mission,” Zipp finished up the story of how they got to this point while sitting around the Jetsons’ dinner table. “So, we kinda need a place to stay until our mission is over and we can get home.”

“So… I think that pretty much covers it,” Sunny said. “Now you know EVERYTHING about our past adventures in the last year.”

The Jetsons, Vega, Orion, Astro and Rosie sat a little slack jawed for a few moments, never hearing of such things in all their lives.

I mean... another world of talking ponies? An evil fire alicorn? Magic? Being sent to parallel worlds to solve problems and defeat evil? It was a lot to take in for a futuristic family like the Jetsons.

George eventually shook his head and turned back to the ponies after a moment. “Sorry about that, Sunny-- you’re the first ponies we’ve known personally here in Orbit City, and we never expected such a wild and crazy story to come from me inviting you guys to dinner.”

“But we can’t throw them out after what they just said, Dad!” Judy argued. “I mean, they’re really space-tastic!”

“And besides, didn’t you hear the part about an evil leopard bent on traveling between worlds?” Elroy added. “They could be in big trouble if we let them go out on their own.”

“Elroy, I doubt Allura would even know about Orbit City,” Hitch patted the boy’s shoulder, “but… he is right. Evil like Allura shouldn’t be messed with, and if evil were to come here, we’d have a better chance at protecting you all.”

“Well… we do have that extra room in the back,” Jane pointed out. “They could always stay in there until they have to go home.”

“But what about when I have to go to work?” George questioned. “And when you kids go to school?”

“Well… I-I had a thought for that,” Vega raised her paw timidly. “Maybe the ponies could come with us to work tomorrow, as sort of an… apprenticeship program like I’m in right now.”

“And I was gonna spend the day with Jane and Elroy tomorrow before the science fair started,” Orion shrugged, “so... it kinda works out.”

“And, we could all pill our weight and help around here,” Sunny agreed. “At least... consider the offer.”

George considered this for a moment, looking at each member of his family, and them at the ponies.

They seemed generally sweet and warm-hearted, and they did volunteer to put themselves in danger if trouble were to arise.

And he could always use some company while he and Vega were at work.

So, he eventually sighed and smiled. “How could I say no to ponies who clearly need a place to stay?” he asked, causing the ponies to cheer while George turned to Rosie. “Set up the back room for our guests, Rosie-- tomorrow, they're going to get the full Orbit City experience!”

As Rosie wheeled off to prepare the back room for the Mane 6, none of the newfound friends had no idea of the future adventure that was in store for them...

...and the possible danger that would come with it.

A Crazy Day at Spacely Sprockets

The Jetsons had given the Mane 6 the opportunity to stay in their apartment in Orbit City until their Unity Quest was complete and they could go home.

After dinner, the ponies volunteered to do the dishes, surprising the Jetsons entirely, since they never did the dishes by hand. Nevertheless, the ponies seemed persistent, so the Jetsons allowed it, and were shocked to discover that the ponies did it very well and had fun doing it.

Soon enough, it was finally time for bed, and Rosie led the ponies to the back bedroom for the night.

It wasn't fancy, just some twin beds and bunk beds for whenever the Jetsons had company, but to the Mane 6, it was just right for them.

But as the group was getting ready to go to bed, Sunny overheard George and Jane talking the next room over... something about Vega and Orion.

“So, their parents still haven't come to your office looking for them?”

“No... I'm starting to get worried, Janey. Vega and Orion need their parents, but I'm not sure if they were lost... or abandoned.”

Sunny stiffened at this, her heart sinking as she heard Jane gasp. “Abandoned? Who in their right mind would abandon those dear sweet cubs?”

“I don't know, and I don't wanna jump to conclusions just yet,” George answered, sounding sincere and concerned all in one voice. “Vega doesn't like to talk about that night and I don't wanna pressure either of them. We just need to--”

Suddenly, Vega's voice entered the midst, sounding a bit timid. “Um... George...? Jane...? Am I... interrupting your conversation? I-If so, I-I can leave.”

The sound of the cub's voice made Sunny's heart sink further, but she continued to listen either way. “No, no, sweetheart,” Jane said softly. “Is something wrong?”

“Well... I couldn't sleep-- stupid nightmare,” Vega said quietly. “Orion was gonna try and bunk with Judy, and... well... c-can I sleep with you two tonight...?”

Apparently, George and Jane complied to this, cause it went pretty silent after this.

Sunny sighed sadly, realizing that George and Jane really were good parents, but they had no idea how to help these cubs with their own struggles.

One thing was for sure... they probably had some serious work to do the next day, so it would probably be best to get some sleep.

Tomorrow, as Zipp might say, was a brand-new adventure after all.

It was early morning when alarm clocks from all around the house had started going off, waking the ponies up with a slight startle.

Then, after breakfast (which was prepared by simply pressing a button), everyone but Rosie and Astro hopped into the flying car and into Orbit City to drop everyone off at different locations for the day ahead.

First off, George piloted the car to Elroy's school, sending him down there in a small space pod.

Then, after hugging her father around the neck, Judy was dropped off at her own high school in a space pod of her own.

After a little while, it was time for Orion and Jane to get dropped off at the mall for their weekly shopping... only for Jane to take George's wallet before setting off, leaving only Vega, George and the ponies to head to where George worked-- a company called Spacely Sprockets.

Vega (who seemed to be warming up to the group more and more) told the ponies that Mr. Spacely was a man of short height and had an extremely short temper, so they had to watch themselves and whatever they had to say, otherwise it could be George's job and her apprenticeship on the line.

Of course, there seemed to be a heavy amount of traffic that morning, but this did give the Mane 6 a chance to get a good look around the futuristic city the Jetsons and the leopard cubs called home.

After a little while, they finally managed to get to Spacely Sprockets, where George folded his car into a briefcase once everyone climbed out of it. “Come on now, kids,” George offered to the ponies and Vega. “We need to stop by Mr. Spacely's office and let him know you'll be spending the day with us, cause he does NOT like surprises.”

This remark caused Izzy to gasp. “Not even super special surprise parties?!”

“Especially not super special surprise parties,” Vega told her, causing Izzy to gasp once again. “He's not someone you really wanna make mad, so... keep your talk on the downlow, okay, guys?”

“You guys can count on us,” Sunny said as they stepped on the moving sidewalk to Mr. Spacely's office, hoping that he wouldn't be too frightening and strict for the ponies to handle.

“...s-so you see, Mr. Spacely, sir, these ponies can't go home until they complete their mission, so me and my family offered to let them stay with us for a while,” George hesitantly told his boss, obviously nervous while the ponies stood behind him. “And they wanted to help me and Vega around the office a bit during the day.”

“So... what Mr. George is trying to say is... well...” Vega gulped nervously before bracing herself. “Is it okay if they become part-time apprentices until they go home?”

Mr. Spacely hummed in thought, a frown upon his face as he looked at his employee, the leopard cub and the ponies. “I don't know about this, Jetson... how do I know that this isn't anothee one of your space-brained ideas that's gonna cost me more money?”

“Well... if I may, sir, we're all really hard workers,” Zipp spoke up, stepping forward. “We would mostly stay inside George's office and make sure everything would be in order there.”

“Oh! And we would be happy to bring you anything you might need, like a smoothie!” Pipp volunteered. “Sunny makes the best smoothies back where we're from.”

“Would it cost me anything?”

“For you, Mr. Spacely?” Sunny asked with a smile. “It would be completely free of charge.”

Mr. Spacely seemed to consider this for another few seconds, making the ponies, Vega and George nervous... that is, until Mr. Spacely finally extended his hand to George. “You got yourself a deal, Jetson-- just don't make me regret this.”

“Oh, thank you for this, Mr. Spacely!” George said enthusiastically, shaking his boss' hand. “I'll get them settled in my office for the day, and they'll go out and do anything you might need, right, guys?”

“Absolutely!”

“You know it...”

“Sure thing!”

“Of course.”

And so, with this being said, everyone left the office of Mr. Spacely to start the ponies’ first day as part-time apprentices.

XXXXXXXX

George's office was quite spacious, and provided the ponies plenty of space to either rest or look around-- even cleaning up the office so it could look its best was fun.

There was even a whole basket of toys for Vega to play with while she was on her breaks.

But... when the ponies saw what George's job was, they were a bit surprised-- all George had to do was push a button repeatedly for his entire shift, which didn't seem that hard to them... at first.

As the day progressed, they could see that George was growing tired and bored from his daily chore-- even Vega seemed uninterested with her toys as she rested at George's feet. “Oh, this is grueling labor,” George complained out loud. “I work my finger to the bone for this company and yet I'm completely under-appreciated.”

“I totally agree with you, Mr. Jetson-- when I delivered Mr. Spacely his strawberry smoothie that Sunny worked hard on, he didn’t even say thank you!” Pipp scoffed, crossing her hooves. “So ungrateful…”

“Come on, guys, we all know that Mr. Spacely is probably busy,” Sunny tried to keep on Mr. Spacely’s good side. “You’ll see… he’ll come around eventually.”

“Maybe, Sunny,” Hitch said with an unsure look, “but I wouldn't bet a whole lot on that.”

You know, George, I think that the next time you and Vega see that old miser, Mr. Spacely,” said Izzy as a TV screen lowered down toward them, “you should TOTALLY demand a raise.”

“Jetson!” Mr. Spacely yelled from the TV monitor, scaring the group half to death with his sudden appearance. “You’re…”

“Oh, no,” George gulped, figuring that Mr. Spacely might’ve heard what they had said. “Please, Mr. Spacely, I-I’m sorry--”

“...hired!”

Upon hearing what he thought was the word ‘fired’, George immediately sighed dejectedly. “We understand immediately, Mr. Spacely,” he spoke. “I'll clean out my office immediately. Office, let’s pack up.”

With the swift click of a remote button, the entire office folded up, with Hitch still sitting on a chair, causing him to fall on his rear end. “No, Jetson,” Mr. Spacely stopped his employee from leaving. “I said, ‘You’re hired’!”

“Hired? Forgive me for being blunt, sir,” Vega spoke, “but hasn’t he been hired this whole time?”

Mr. Spacely blinked for a moment, realizing the cub was right. “Okay,” he spoke, “maybe that WAS a confusing way of phrasing this. Point is, I need you and these new apprentices of yours, George Jetson, to take on a new project.”

“A new project? On our first day?” Hitch asked before humming with a smile. “We must’ve really made a good first impression.”

“Oh, boy!” George smiled, excited about the news. “Are you talking about a promotion?”

“Well,” said Mr. Spacely with a shrug, “if if doing more work for the same money sounds like a promotion to you, then let’s call it a promotion. Heh heh heh…”

“You know, that's exactly what we're gonna call it,” Misty said, shaking the TV's robotic arm. “Whatever the job is, we won't let you down, Mr. Spacely!”

“You better not, or you're all fired!”

This caused George and Vega to gulp nervously, not wanting that in the slightest. “All of you report to the shuttle bay in five minutes,” Mr. Spacely vaguely instructed. “And Jetson... no surprises!”

And just like that, the TV monitor shut off, leaving the group on their own. “Oh, galactic fantastic!” Vega cheered. “Reporting to the shuttle bay usually means a business trip, right?”

“Right!” George nodded with a smile. “I have some spare space suits for you kids, but I hope my old suit still fits.”

“New outfits?! Um, count me in!” Pipp squealed before she and her friends ran to the closet. Within a few minutes, the Mane 6 were decked in their own spacesuits, which were customized thanks to their cutie mark magic.

Misty's spacesuit, with its matching boots, was a mix of light blue and lavender, creating a color balance that matched her coat color and her mane and tail color, with light yellow stars scattered around and her cutie mark was on the right flank of the suit.
Zipp's spacesuit and boots were had the colors of white with cotton candy pink, magenta, turquoise and thulian pink mixed in, and her cutie mark was imprinted on the right flank.
Izzy's spacesuit and boots were pastel blue and purple, with stars and moons around and her cutie mark on the right flank.
Pipp's spacesuit and boots were truly worthy enough to be worn by a pop star princess. It was a bright pink collar with different gemstones sporadically placed on her suit, and her cutie mark on her right flank.
Sunny's spacesuit and boots were a light orange color, lighter than her coat color, with her cutie mark on the right flank.
Hitch's spacesuit and boots were light yellow, lighter than his coat collar, with green zig-zag stripes around his waist and on his boots, and his cutie mark on his right flank.

“Wow! I gotta admit, we look good!” Sunny said, admiring her new look. “George, Vega! Are you two ready yet?”

“I am!” Vega stepped out wearing a dark green spacesuit with matching boots. “But George is… well… having a little trouble.”

“Well,” George strained as he slowly stepped into view, wearing a very tight orange spacesuit, “last time I wore this, I was on the moon. Guess I weighed a little less there.”

He then pressed a button on his chest, allowing the spacesuit to loosen itself, causing George to sigh in relief. “There we go. Come on, kids-- we better hurry up, or we’ll be late!”

“Right behind ya, George! WHOO-HOO!!” Izzy cheered as they all followed George out of the office.

Only a few minutes later, the ponies, George and Vega arrived in the shuttle bay, with George and Vega accidentally knocking over a cart full of supplies as they flew past.

“Pardon us!”

“Coming through!”

“Hey!” yelled another employee as the ponies ran past. “What’s the big idea, George?!”

Another employee scoffed as the other one pushed a button to restack the boxes. “That guy is a galactic goofball.”

“More like a pain in the plutoids.”

The ponies heard this with a worried expression… this source of negativity would usually be bad for magic back in Equestria, and it could mess with George’s confidence.

They had to keep an eye on things while they were on this trip.

George and Vega landed next to a female employee, who seemed a lot friendlier than the other two. “Heya, George! Hi, Vega,” she smiled. “You two and your new friends here to hide out from Spacely again?”

“Not today,” George smiled confidently. “Mr. Spacely promoted us for an extra special project.”

Suddenly, an alarm echoed throughout the shuttle bay, and through the door came three large black robots, heading for the rocket nearby. “Wow!” Vega exclaimed in recognition. “Spacely Sprockets X-9000 deep core drill-bots!”

“My new project must be hugely important!” George assumed. However... the robots seemed less than thrilled that George was going to be on the project.

“George Jetson?”

“This new project is doomed.”

“Man... is EVERYONE around here so negative about George?” Zipp asked with a frown on her face. George seemed so sweet... how could anyone not like him when he was just being himself?

However, her questions were put on hold when Vega eagerly pushed the ponies onto the moving ramp into the rocket. “Careful there, Benedict,” George told another employee. “Extremely crucial project going on here. No room for mistakes today.”

Benedict shut the door before scoffing to himself where George couldn't hear. “No room for mistakes, huh? Then how did they make room for you on the project?”

XXXXXXXX

“Excuse us, fellas. We just gotta squeeze in here,” Vega said politely while she and George made room in between two of the drillbots while the Mane 6 sat across from them. “Okay! We're ready to go!” George said cheerfully. “Oh, I can't wait to get the details on this project.”

“Hey, George? I wanted to ask you something,” Zipp spoke up after buckling her seatbelt. “Why do some of those people seem annoyed whenever you or Vega are around?”

“To be honest, I've never been too sure of that myself. Sometimes there is the occasion fumble,” George said with a shrug, “but it all works out in the end. I guess some people are jealous of my... natural charisma.”

“...right,” Pipp said, rolling her eyes with a chuckle. “Whatever you say, George.”

That's when the countdown for the launch sequence began over the speakers. “Launch in five, four... three, two...”

Suddenly, George's private communicator suddenly started going off. “Whoa! Hold the launch, hold the launch! I better take this.”

With the simple press of a button, a TV screen appeared with the operator on the other end. “Hello, Mr. Jetson! Your lovely beautiful wife is on line one.”

The drillbot on George's side groaned audibly, causing George to become nervous. “I can't talk right now. Take a message, please.”

“But, Mr. Jetson, it's your wife. Are you sure you don't want to take this?”

The other drillbot on George’s side groaned just like the other one did, causing George to chuckle, a nervous smile on his face. “Big project, gotta go. Bye.”

And at that moment, the call was disconnected, causing George to sigh in relief. “George, are you sure you couldn't have taken that call?” Hitch asked in concern. “What if it was important?”

“Hitch, this is an important business opportunity that I can't mess up. You guys saw what Mr. Spacely will do if I do!” George said, the last part a bit nervously. “Trust me on this.”

Hitch sighed, understanding how important a job could be, and causing him to nod. “Okay... I trust you.”

“Speaking of this project,” Sunny spoke up, “I have a question of my own. Where exactly are we heading to?”

“one.”

And just like that, the rocket lurched out of the shuttle bay and into the open skies.

XXXXXXXX

At Elroy's school, Jane had been trying to contact George while Elroy was checking out the other booths at the science fair, but the operator just couldn't get ahold of him. “Your husband isn't available, Mrs. Jetson.”

“Not available like he's on his way to his son's science fair, where he's supposed to be? Or not available like he's putting work before his family again?” Jane asked. “He didn't specify,” the operator spoke. “But if I were a betting woman, I know where I'd put my money if you catch my drift. Heh heh heh heh. May I take a message?”

“No. I'll either to talk to him when he gets here... or yell at him when he gets home.”

“Uh-oh... someone's in trouble...” Orion said nervously with his ears pinned as Jane shut off the communication. “Have you heard from your sister any today, Orion?” Jane asked the cub. “Not since she told me that they got to work this morning,” Orion shook his head negatively. “Sorry.”

“Oh, that's all right,” Jane patted his head in comfort. “I just hope they'll be here soon.”

That's when Elroy flew closer to them, looking at all the different exhibits as he flew past them. “Look at this place. Three cold fusion experiments and a vinegar and baking soda volcano? No one else has anything as sophisticated as my time travel equation.”

But as he landed, he looked around, noticing that one of his parents wasn't around. “Where's Dad, Vega and the others?”

“George promised that they'd be here, Elroy,” Orion tried to comfort his friend. “I'm sure that they're just trying to find a parking spot.”

“Or at least George better be...” Jane crossed her arms with a mutter.

But what she didn't realize was that George, Vega and the ponies not showing up was going to be the result of something much bigger than anyone expected.

XXXXXXXX

At the same time, the rocket from Spacely Sprockets was descending through the clouds before landing on the cold, snowy surface of the Earth below.

Since Orbit City rested above the clouds, it rarely ever got snow or rain, so seeing snow was a rare opportunity for Vega.

When she, George and the Mane 6 stepped out of the rocket and rode down the ramp, Vega looked around in wonder. “Wow...” she gasped. “The surface of the Earth!”

“So natural, so... primitive,” George added, but just as he took a step onto the snow, letting it squish under his feet, he immediately cringed in disgust. “So... disgusting!”

However, as Vega and the ponies willingly stepped onto the snow, George tried to fly back onto the ship, only to fly right into one of the drillbots. “Unit One, what on Earth are we doing on the Earth?”

“We have been ordered to drill a hole for a new piling.”

“Well, that's all well and good,” Pipp said while flying around, trying to get a signal, “but what exactly are we supposed to do?”

“You ponies and the young leopard are to simply watch, while Mr. Jetson is in charge.”

This immediately caused George to smirk. “In charge, huh? I like the sound of that,” he said, taking the remote from one of the robots and sitting down on a snowy rock nearby. “ Well, then, you boys get to drilling, and I'll stay here and... be in charge.”

The drillbots groaned, but unfortunately, they had no choice to obey George’s orders. “Commence pre-calculated drill proceedure.”

And just like that, the drillbots grew drills and began to tunnel down into the earth, leaving the ponies and Vega to look down into the hole after them. “Ah, yes. A lot of responsibility. Lot of responsibility....” George began to say before trailing off, snoring after a few more moments. “Huh... I never would have guessed it,” Misty said with surprise, “but George Jetson is really a bonefied sleeper.”

“So, what are we supposed to do now?” Zipp asked with her eyebrow raised, shuffling some snow under her hoof. “Wait around in the snow all day?”

“I’m definitely all for that! WHOO-HOO!!” Vega cheered she plopped right down into the snow and rolled around, causing the ponies to laugh, amused by the action. “Wow, you really like the snow, don’t you, Vega?” Sunny asked with a smile. “Totally! It may be my first time seeing it, but I love it!” Vega said. “My… my mom used to have fur that was white just like it.”

The sadness in the cub’s voice made Misty frown and approach. “We never asked before, but… where is she? You can tell us anything, you know-- it’ll be better for us to help you if you do.”

Vega sighed reluctantly and began to tell the tale. “Me and my brother and my mom lived on the outskirts of Orbit City for a while, until one day, my mom got real spooked by something and took me and my brother to the outside of Spacely Sprockets before she just… flew away. She said she would be back, but… that was months ago. We’ve been staying with George and his family ever since.”

“So… that was it?” Pipp asked, personally appalled by the action. “She just… left you?”

“...I’m not sure what to really believe anymore,” sighed Vega. “George and his family are beyond amazing, but… I really do wonder where Mom is sometimes. And… if she forgot all about us.”

“Vega… your mom would never forget about you,” Zipp said, wrapping a wing around the cub gently. “I’m sure you’ll see her again someday.”

“...but when? That’s what I wanna know.”

The Mane 6 looked at each other, not believing how disheartened the cub was. But before they could comfort her, however, the voice of Unit One talking to George caught their attention. “Mr. Jetson.”

George immediately woke up at this, standing up on the rock. “Huh? What? Who? I wasn't sleeping-- you were sleeping!”

“Mr. Jetson,” Unit One interrupted. “We found something.”

The Mane 6 and Vega looked intrigued by this, and quickly joined George and the drillbots by the side of the hole that had just been drilled. “Well, what do you know?” George spoke up. “There was already a hole in your hole.”

“More specifically, it looks like some deep underground ice caves,” Zipp said as she looked down into the hole. “Must’ve been like this for a long time.”

“Protocol states,” Unit One explained, “we cannot continue drilling until our supervisor has inspected the site and declared it safe.”

This immediately made George tense up out of fear. “Uh… me?”

“Uh-huh.”

Vega looked down into the dark cave and became nervous herself. “A-Any chance George can do that from right here?”

“Uh-uh.”

“No?” George gulped. “Uh… okay.”

“Come on, George, it might be exciting!” Izzy chirped. “We can all go down there with you!”

“Yeah! Just follow us and you’ll be fine!” Zipp said just before she and Pipp fluttered down into the cave, carrying Izzy and Misty, while Sunny and Hitch grew vine ropes to lower themselves down into the hole. “Well… I have always wanted to explore an underground cave,” Vega admitted softly, “so… I guess it might be fun.”

George gulped nervously before deciding to take the cub's advice. “All right then. I’m going in…” he said, going into the tunnel with Vega right behind. “Bye-bye…”

“Oy…” Unit One muttered. “What a scaredy-cat.”

On the way down from the hole’s entrance, George kept his eyes shut, trying to remember to stay calm. “You're gonna be fine, George. Everything is okay, George. You're gonna be fine, George. Everything is okay--”

Suddenly, George felt his butt hit the ice cold floor, causing him to yelp and look around, realizing that the cave wasn’t as deep as he originally thought. “Ha ha ha! Hey, guys! We made it!” George bragged to the ponies before looking back up at the hole. “It looks pretty safe to us!”

“Keep going, sir!” Unit One called. “Oh, darn it!” George muttered before the ponies and Vega followed him deeper into the caverns. “Dumb drillbot. Who tells who what to do around here anyway?”

“Uh, I’m not sure how to answer that question,” Izzy spoke. “I’m just gonna go out on a limb and say… you do?”

Suddenly, it became so dark in those caverns that the group couldn't see a single foot in front of them, much less one of their hooves, hands or paws. “Uh... w-who killed the lights?!” Vega asked, eyes darting around in panic. “Spacesuit likes to maximum!”

At this command, all the spacesuits lit up with bright lights, lighting up the entire cave and making Hitch sigh in relief. “That's better.”

Suddenly, as the group began to move forward again, they stopped and screamed upon discovering a startling sight-- a man on top of a plane, frozen in the ice!

George and Vega were about to fly out when Sunny turned into alicorn form to stop them. “Guys, wait! Look at him... this poor guy has been frozen down here for years!”

“But... how did this happen? Who is he?” Misty asked. “And where did he come from?”

George looked at Vega, then back at the hole, and then flew over to the ice chunk, rubbing his hand against it before rubbing in concern.

Sunny did have a point... the poor man must have been frozen down here for a long time.

Maybe there was a chance that he could be revived and given a fresh start.

After a moment of sympathetically staring, George finally made a decision. “Well, I... we can't just leave him here.”

“Boys?!” Vega shouted to the drillbots up at the surface. “I think we're gonna need some help down here!”

Hopefully there was a chance that they could save this man before it was too late...

...unaware of what might be in their future.

Big Show in the Future

Upon discovering that there was a man frozen in ice right where the new piling was supposed to be inserted, George Jetson, the Mane 6 and young flying leopard Vega knew that they needed to get him out of those icy caverns and back to Spacely Sprockets so they could get him thawed out.

Hopefully... it wouldn't be too late to give this stranger a fresh start.

XXXXXXXX

After the ice the man had stuck in had been been carved out into a smaller chuck of ice to be more transportable, the drillbots moved it into the rocket ship to take back to the office. “Aww... look at this poor old-fashioned fella,” Vega said sympathetically. “Frozen in ice!”

“This is some surprise, right guys?” George began to ask the ponies before gasping in realization. “Mr. Spacely said no surprises!!”

“I'm sure Mr. Spacely will have some sort of exception for this sort of circumstance,” Misty told George reassuringly. “But we need to hurry and get back to Spacely Sprockets right away.”

“Yeah! Let's go go go!” Vega chirped optimistically, but as she did this, a small spark of light emerged from her star tag, causing her to immediately tense up. “Uh... did anyone else see that?”

Unfortunately, no one else was paying attention, causing her to shrug, thinking it was her imagination before following George and the ponies back onto the rocket.

XXXXXXXX

Immediately after they returned to the office, George immediately put up several heat lamps to begin the thawing process, and while this was going on, Pipp hummed in thought as she looked at the seven foot tall man wearing a gray camouflage outfit of… some kind. “I can’t help but feel like this guy is familiar to me for some reason, but… I can’t put my hoof on where I’ve seen him.”

“Maybe he’s an influencer of some kind from our time?” Sunny whispered with a shrug. “Maybe,” Pipp shrugged, “but… I don’t think so.”

“Well, one thing I do know for sure?” Hitch panted as he continued to position the heat lamps. “This guy is taking forever to melt out!”

“Come on, come on…!!” George said impatiently, not wanting Mr. Spacely to walk in at any moment to see this. “Melt faster, melt faster!”

“Huh… what’s this thing do?” Zipp asked, pushing a button that made the heat lamp’s power increase, making the ice melt faster. Unfortunately, as the ice finally began to clear up, the man began to scream in an insanely loud voice, causing Vega and the ponies to immediately yell in shock and surprise... at least until George covered the man's mouth. “Shh... be quiet. Mr. Spacely said no surprises--”

“And you are one big seven-foot surprise!” Misty agreed, scanning the man up and down, causing the man to growl. “Would you be quiet?” George asked desperately. “You're gonna get me fired!”

Just then, the man muttered something, but George couldn't understand what he had said. “What?”

The man spoke again, but George still couldn't understand a word he was saying. “What?”

“George? Look at where your hand is,” Zipp gestured to George's hand over the man's mouth. “Oh... my bad.”

That's when the man grabbed George by the collar of the shirt and held him above the ground threateningly. “Where am I?!”

“S-Spacely Sprockets-- my office,” George stammered fearfully. “Which won't be my office much longer if you'd don't...”

“JETSON?!!”

“It’s Mr. Spacely!” Vega meowed in panic. “You gotta hide!”

With one quick push of a button, a chair from the closet swept the man into the closet (with a few bangs and bruises) just before Mr. Spacely entered the office, looking stern. “What are you all doing back?”

“Well, sie, uh... the job is done,” Sunny spoke. “So soon?” Mr. Spacely raised an eyebrow. “Any surprises...?”

“Well, that kinda builds on what you might call a surprise--” Izzy said before Hitch elbowed her into silence. “Nope! No surprises whatsoever!”

“No surprises?” Mr. Spacely looked at George, impressed. “Wow, Jetson. I should have given you a fake promotion months ago.”

“Yep! Heh heh... I-I told you that we could handle this assignment, Mr. Spacely,” Misty told George’s boss nervously before banging coming from the closet caught their attention. “What’s that noise?” Mr. Spacely asker as George rushed to the closet and leaned against it casually. “Oh, that's just Pickenpock in accounting. Little game we play.”

George tapped on the door in a pattern, only for the man they had unfroze to bang on it twice, causing George to chuckle nervously. “Well, tell him to stop it,” Mr. Spacely said as he left. “It's annoying.”

“You got it, Mr. Spacely!” Izzy saluted. “We'll get that done faster than you can say Señor Butterscotch five times fast!”

After the boss had left, the group found themselves sighing in relief-- that was way too close. As long as they got this ice man home before Mr. Spacely noticed, maybe things wouldn't go south too quickly.

Suddenly, the ice man burst through the closet, causing the group to scream before the man grabbed George by the shirt collar again. “You better tell me what's going on before I snap you in half!”

“Whoa whoa whoa! No snapping necessary!” Zipp said, trying to calm him down while Vega and Pipp tried to pull George loose. “Maybe if you could just tell us what you last remember, we can help you work this out.”

As Vega and Pipp tried to help George, the man tried to remember what last went through his mind. “Last thing I remember, I was on an airplane...”

As the man paused, George found the voice to speak up. “If you could just set me down...”

“...flying out of Denver in a snow storm...”

“Over there would be great. On the ground...?”

“...and then I was standing in a puddle of water. With your hand over my mouth. So I'm gonna ask you one last time...” the man threatened George with his grip growing tighter. “...where am I?!”

George finally gulped nervously before pointing outside. “Orbit City...?”

That’s when the man finally got a good look at the world outside, causing him to drop George due to shock, and Pipp and Vega got drug down with him when the man pressed his face into the window. “Am I in… the future?!”

“Hiya, George!” a man said as he flew by with his treadmill-walking dog. “Uh, to me it's just now,” George shrugged. “But… to you?” Vega shrugged. “Probably yes.”

That’s when the man groaned and passed out right on the floor, causing the cub to meow in shock. “I really gotta get a grip on myself…”

“JETSON!!”

“Oh, no…” Hitch gulped nervously at hearing Mr. Spacely’s voice. “We gotta get this guy and ourselves outta here! Where do you guys keep the 'emergency escape from your boss' button?!”

“Uh… Hitch?” Vega cleared her throat to stop the sheriff's panicked button-pushing. “Allow me.”

She pressed her paw upon a singular button, sending the unconscious man from the 21st century through a nearby tube, just before George, Vega and the other ponies traveled through the tube behind him...

...just before Mr. Spacely entered the office. “Pickenpock in accounting says you're the one banging on the wall!”

But when he looked around, he realized that no one was in the office. “Jetson? He and those ponies aren't even here.”

That's when he turned down the hallway again, this time yelling a different name. “PICKENPOOOOOCK!!!!”

XXXXXXXX

At the Jetson family apartment, Elroy and Orion were busy watching robot wrestling on the couch with Elroy's second place science fair trophy on the table... while Jane angrily paced around the room, groaning. “I am so mad at your father!”

“Jane,” said Orion, “I'm sure George has a good reason for why he and the ponies missed the science fair.”

“He'd better.”

Rosie then came and put a blood pressure cuff around Jane's wrist. “Better cool your jets, Mrs. J,” she told her employer in concern. “Your heart rate and blood pressure are both elevated to dangerous levels.”

“Rosie,” Jane said rather calmly, “it's only going to
get more dangerous in here when George arrives.”

“But... you're not gonna be mad at Vega or the others... right?” asked Orion with worry. “No, sweetie, of course not,” Jane said to the cub. “I don't remember ever telling them, but I'm not sure George ever told them either. So, no-- they're not going to be blamed.”

“Janey! I'm home!”

The second Jane heard George’s voice, her blood pressure and heart rate went through the roof, causing the ponies to gulp nervously as they rode the moving sidewalk a bit closer.

Whatever was going on... Jane was definitely mad.

Vega hid behind George’s feet as George tried to greet his wife with a nervous grin. “Uh... happy anniversary?”

Orion slit his paw across his neck in an attempt to stop him, but the look Jane was giving him made Rosie turn to her employer. “I'll prepare the couch for you tonight, Mr. J.”

“V-Valentine's Day...?”

Jane growled at this, making Orion that much more nervous before Rosie made another remark. “I'll pack your bags for you, Mr. J.”

“Please,” George begged, “don’t let it be your birthday.”

Orion and Jane both slapped their faces at this. “How many handles would you like on your casket, Mr. J?” Rosie asked bluntly. “Um… Jane, is there something we might have missed while we were gone?” Sunny asked in concern. “Is this why you tried to call George earlier?”

“Actually, yes. George,” Jane turned to her husband, “your son won second place for his project today… at the science fair?”

“Would’ve been first,” Elroy shrugged, “except that I've never actually made anything time travel. Although, Bobby Booster never made a volcano erupt. So I'm not sure why he got the blue ribbon. Ah, the whole thing's a popularity contest anyway.”

That’s when Vega suddenly remembered, despite so many crazy things happening that day. “The science fair! Orion, Jane, Elroy! We’re so sorry!”

“Yeah, we had no idea that it was even going on,” Hitch said as the ponies all spared George a scolding look. “Way to go, Mr. J.”

“I’m really sorry about making you miss it, guys, but it just slipped my mind due to everything that went on today,” George said to the ponies before turning to Jane and Rosie again. “Speaking of which, I got a new assignment at work. And something big happened.”

“Huge, actually,” Vega shrugged. “And… well, you just have to see it for yourselves.”

That's when the man they had thawed out a few hours earlier, who revealed his name was Big Show, came through the doorway, hitting his head and breaking some of the doorway off as he looked outside. “Flying cars?”

Jane and Orion each let out a gasp at Big Show’s massive stature. “Moving sidewalks?” Big Show questioned just before Elroy flew over. “And jetpacks?!”

“Wow!” Elroy exclaimed as he landed. “He’s huge!”

“Everybody,” Sunny introduced with a smile, “this is Big Show!”

“Big Show, this is Vega’s brother Orion, my wife Jane, and my boy Elroy…” George stopped upon realizing one member of his family was missing. “Where’s daughter Judy?”

“Where else?” Orion said quietly with a huff. “Cheerleading practice.”

“Well, at least we’ll have some time before she gets home so we can all get to know one another a little more,” Misty tried to point out something positive. But before anyone could respond to this, the sound of Astro barking came from down the hall, and they all turned to see Astro running toward them at top speed. “Welcome home, George!”

“Is that a talking dog?” Big Show asked in shock, and as Astro prepared to leap on George, Big Show grabbed the dog’s collar and prevented him from doing so. “George!” Astro yelped. “Get this crazy thing off me!”

“Get your filthy hands off of Astro, you brute!” Rosie ordered, coming forward before George could say anything. “Is that a talking robot?!” Big Show asked right before Rosie began a round of robot kung fu on Big Show, which caused Astro to bark wildly, and the ponies and George tried to separate the fight while Jane only scolded her husband. “George, see what happens when you bring your work home with you?”

As this chaos was going on, Judy entered the apartment, not paying any attention to the scene, as she was talking to her friends as she went into her room. “I can't believe Mr. Saturnson giving us a history test the day before the big space ball game. Super un-cosmic!” she spoke with agitation. “My head's so gonna be full of history there won't be room for the cheers. Oh… when are we ever gonna need to know 21st century history in real life, anyway?”

After Judy had disappeared into her room, George had decided that this brawl had gone on long enough. “That does it! Rosie! Stop with the robot kung fu! Big Show, please put my dog down! Now!”

Everyone did as asked, even though Astro did seem a little annoyed with Big Show grabbing him. “Everybody listen,” George told his family. “Big Show’s been frozen in ice for 100 years.”

“A hundred years?!” Jane asked out of shock. “A little unnerving to think about, but yeah,” Zipp nodded. “Apparently it happened while he was flying through a snowstorm.”

“So, we found him, thawed him,” Vega added, “and brought him home for dinner because he's a little freaked out about being in the future.”

“...how much dinner does it eat?” Rosie asked, causing Hitch to elbow her, but he regretted this decision upon realizing he had hit pure metal, causing him to mutter a quiet, but painful ‘Ow’. “Gee, Dad… that does explain everything,” Elroy said before taking Big Show by the hand. “Come on, Big Show. You can sit next to me at the table.”

“You have a… lovely home,” Big Show told Jane as Elroy led him away, and Rosie watched on with annoyance. “If that thing makes a mess on the carpet, I am not cleaning it up.”

“At least Big Show is polite, Rosie,” Vega pointed out. “Besides, he has nowhere else to go… a lot like me and my brother for the longest time.”

“...hey, why don’t we all go help set the table for dinner?” Sunny offered. “You too, Astro. Come on, boy!”

Astro barked a bit before following the ponies and leopard cubs away, leaving George to try and reconcile things with his wife. “Janey, I'm sorry I missed the science fair.”

“You don’t have to apologize to me,” Jane told him. “Really?” George asked in surprise… and in confusion. “Really? Because the look you're giving me makes me think I do.”

“George,” Jane told her husband seriously, “if you want to put your work before the family, that's your decision.”

“Oh, thanks, sweetie,” George kissed his wife with a chuckle, causing her to glare at him. “That's a load off. So listen. I couldn't just leave Big Show at the office. But I promise, he'll stay just for one night. Tomorrow the ponies will help me figure out what to do with him.”

And just like that, he walked off to check up on the dinner table setting, causing Jane to sigh to herself. “I really thought he’d read between the lines on that one.”

“I got the subtext, Mrs. J,” Rosie spoke with her robotic hands on her hips. “And I’m a robot.”

XXXXXXXX

Within a few minutes and with the push of a button, Jane had prepared some spaghetti and meatballs for dinner. Big Show was starving, having not eaten anything during the time he was frozen, but he was confused when he saw that there was no silverware.

That's when he saw the Jetsons using buttons to pick up their food and drinks and bring them to their mouths and decided to at least give it a chance... especially when he saw the ponies attempting to do it.

But when he pushed the button, he ended up making the spaghetti go all over his face, instead of in his mouth.

The ponies cringed at this and offered him their napkins to help clean up, realizing that Big Show was probably having a difficult time adjusting to the futuristic ways of life.

XXXXXXXX

After dinner, it was time for those in the Jetson apartment to get ready for bed.

George placed Big Show on a conveyor belt to help him get washed, his teeth brushed, and get put in a new pair of pajamas-- Elroy even let Big Show borrow his teddy bear.

After getting changed, Rosie pressed a button to turn the couch into a bed, and used robotic arms to tuck Big Show into the bed tightly. “Nighty night. Sleep tight. And just remember…” Rosie said, turning off the lights, even though her eyes could be seen in the darkness. “...I got my eyes on you.”

As Big Show watched her wheel away, the nervous feeling in his gut grew to higher levels than ever-- even higher than when he was on that bedtime conveyor belt.

One thing was definitely for sure… he had to find a way out of there.

And preferably? He needed to get out of there SOON.

Discussions in the Night/Problems Arise (Part 1)

Late that night, while many of the Jetsons, Big Show and the flying leopard cubs were sleeping, the Mane 6 found themselves awake, quietly discussing all the things they had noticed throughout this new adventure…

…which had turned out to be pretty important in more ways than one. “Guys, let’s go over what we know one last time,” Sunny told her friends. “We know that Big Show is definitely a man of a large stature, and whatever he did 100 years ago required some kind of supreme strength.”

“Right,” Zipp said. “Maybe that can lead to some sort of clue that can help us get him home.”

“Guys, I know I’ve seen Big Show somewhere before,” Pipp said, scrolling through her phone, “but I can’t find anything on social media about it! Ohhh… the one time I actually NEED social media and it fails on me!”

“Guys, I know helping Big Show is important, but… my heart really goes out to Orion and Vega,” Misty said sympathetically. “I know how it feels to have your mom just leave you somewhere and not come back for you. I just… I feel so bad for them.”

“We do too, Misty,” Hitch nodded. “But Jane, George and the rest of the Jetsons seem to be taking really good care of them-- like they were part of the family by blood.”

“However… I heard George say something to Jane the other night that made me worried. George really loves Vega and Orion, like the rest of the family, but he isn’t sure what exactly to do with them,” Sunny said with a frown. “It’s been months since their mom left, and she still hasn’t been spotted anywhere in Orbit City.”

“Do you think we should take them back to Equestria with us when this is all over?” asked Izzy. “I know they’d feel right at home!”

“I don’t think so, Izzy-- they know Orbit City, and they love the Jetsons. I don’t wanna take them away from their friends,” Zipp shook her head, “even with the chance that their mom might come for them.”

“Vega and Orion look up to George like a father figure too. Vega told me on the way here that their dad died right after they were born,” Pipp spoke. “So, that explains why she slept with George and Jane the other night after her nightmare!” Sunny realized. “She wants to have a family, but she’s afraid that the Jetsons might leave her and Orion too!”

“Oh man… this is all a lot to take in at once,” Hitch said. “What do you think we should do next?”

“Well, I think the best option right now,” Zipp said, “is to get some sleep. We can’t do anything for our new friends without sleep, and tomorrow will be a lot busier with the whole Big Show situation at hoof.”

“Good idea, Zipp,” nodded Sunny. “We’ll sleep on what we’ve talked about and then regroup tomorrow morning before we head to Spacely Sprockets.”

But before the group could lay down, Misty had one more thought. “Wait… I just thought of something else. I know it may seem ridiculous to think about, but… do you think Allura could have figure out how to get to the future too?”

“...I never thought about that, but I guess there is always a possibility,” Zipp said with an unsure tone, “since there are more star shards that we haven’t found yet.”

“Let’s focus on that when we have a reason to focus on that,” Pipp told her sister. “Right now, we have to help the Jetsons and leopards figure out what to do with Big Show.”

Taking the pink pegasus' advice, the group laid down in their beds and retired for the night... unaware that Misty was right about Allura, and the snow leopard was waiting for the Mane 6 to potentially arrive... just so she can strike them down once and for all.

It was about seven o'clock that morning when George's alarm clock went off, trying to stir him from sleep. “Good morning, Orbit City!” the radio announcer spoke. “It’s another beautiful day in the troposphere. It's time to get up and get moving--”

George hit the snooze button on his alarm clock and tried to go back to sleep, but the alarm clock quickly started going off again. “Shake away those sleepy z's!”

And just like before, after George hit the snooze button and tried to go back to sleep, the clock went off again, this time, the voice sounding clearly annoyed. “Seriously, buddy. You’re gonna be late. Get out of bed!”

And the next thing George knew, he yelped as a robotic arm tossed him out of bed and onto the floor, waking Vega (who was sleeping at the end of the bed) in the process. “I’m up!” George exclaimed. “I’m up!”

Vega yawned squeakily at this before hopping off the bed. “Come on, George, quit lollygagging!” she teased, nudging George slightly. “We gotta get to the office in an hour!”

“All right, all right, Vega, you got my attention,” George said as he rubbed the leopard cub, making her purr. “Give me five minutes and we can get going.”

“Hey, sis!” Orion called from the door. “Last one to get the ponies up is a rotten space-egg!”

“Oh, you’re so on!” Vega challenged and immediately flew after him toward the ponies’ guest room.

XXXXXXXX

At the same time, Jane rode the moving sidewalk into the kitchen to see poor Judy half asleep and looking completely drained. “Oh, Judy, sweetheart, you look exhausted! Let me make you breakfast.”

And with one push of a button, a breakfast consisting of bacon and eggs rose from the table. “I was up all night cramming for my 21st century history exam,” Judy told her mother, tiredly laying her head on the table. “It's gonna be a disaster. I just know it.”

“Maybe you should spend a little more time studying,” Jane advised, “and a little LESS time cheerleading.”

“What? So I can fail at cheerleading too? So un-cosmic!” Judy huffed. “Great advice, Mom.”

“Well, that’s what I’m here for.”

“Good morning, everypony! Vega and Orion gave us quite the warm wake-up call this morning!” Pipp said as the ponies, leopards and George joined the two, and George picked up his coffee and kissed his wife. “No time for breakfast. We gotta get to work and figure out this whole Big Show situation.”

“Speaking of which,” Misty spoke as they walked into the living room, “where IS our sleepy ice man?”

That's when Jane suddenly noticed that one member of the Jetson clan was missing. “Have any of you seen Elroy?”

Jane went off to Elroy's room to look and see if he was still asleep, and Judy then konked out on the dining room table. “Heya, Big Show!” Izzy chirped cheerfully as the ponies, George and Vega entered the living room to look for him. “Rise and shiiiine!!” Pipp exclaimed before noticing something that made her freeze. “Uh… you guys?!”

When George finally saw the empty bed that Pipp was pointing to, he spit out his coffee and looked around in panic. “He’s gone!”

“Elroy’s not in his room!” Jane exclaimed as she approached. “Well, where in the world could they be?!” Hitch asked in panic. “It’s not like they could have just disappeared!”

“Uh… guys?” Misty said, levitating a note off of Elroy’s door. “I found this, but it’s all just letters-- no words.”

Zipp looked at the note before gasping at what she read. “B.R.B.F.M.S.F.A.P!”

“Uh… should any of us know what the stars that means?” Vega asked. “It’s Izzy code for ‘Be right back from my school, family and ponies’!” Izzy said. “I taught him how to write that last night!”

“Hold on a sec…” Zipp raised a hoof to stop the conversation. “Do you think Elroy took off with Big Show to his school to show him off?!”

“It’s the only explanation I can think of, but I don’t know if Big Show is ready to handle the futuristic world yet!” Sunny shook her head. “He just got thawed out yesterday!”

“We better go to Elroy’s school and bring him back here!” Misty said before turning to George. “Do you think you can give us a ride?”

“Sure thing! Everypony, in the car!” George told the Mane 6, who galloped out of the apartment, with George, Orion and Vega immediately in pursuit.

XXXXXXXXX

At the same time, at Elroy's school, Elroy had Big Show sit in front of the entire class for show and tell, and the other kids seemed shocked at what they were seeing. “My dad found him in a block of ice!” Elroy bragged. “He’s from the 21st century.”

“Ooh! Ooh!” one boy raised his hand. “Is he a superhero?”

“No, he’s a… uh…” Elroy looked up at Big Show, not exactly sure what else to say. “What exactly are you?”

“You wanna know what I am?” Big Show asked the kids, standing up and still holding the teddy bear Elroy gave him. “I'm the meanest, baddest warrior ever to enter the squared circle! Well, I mean… I was. Till I got frozen in ice. That championship belt was so close, I could taste it!”

“You were going to taste a championship belt?” one girl asked, prompting the entire class to laugh. “Oh, I wasn't just going to taste it,” Big Show responded. “I was gonna hold it over my head and scream, ‘I AM THE WWE WORLD… HEAVYWEIGHT… CHAMPION’!!!”

“You’re not the Heavyweight Champion,” the boy who spoke before told Big Show. “Reactor Rollins is.”

Big Show growled and picked the boy’s desk up, the boy completely calm. “You telling me you got WWE in the future?”

“Of course!”

“In fact,” Elroy stated, “there's a championship match this afternoon at Orbit City arena.”

“That title belt is supposed to be mine!” Big Show declared, setting the boy on the ground. “Reactor Rollins, you’re going down!”

He slammed the teddy bear, which now had its head clean off, on the ground before storming out of the class, prompting the entire class to cheer…

…except Elroy, who had a feeling that what just happened might’ve caused some sort of nerve to strike in Big Show that could hurt a lot of people. “Big Show, wait!”

Elroy immediately ran out of the classroom and after Big Show in an attempt to stop him from making a mistake he might regret.

XXXXXXXX

Outside the school, Big Show managed to stop a robotic taxi and stepped inside of it. “To Orbit City Arena-- and step on it!”

The robot operating the taxi turned to him. “I am only authorized to drive the designated speed limit.”

“JUST GO!!”

And just like that, the taxi flew away just as Elroy came outside. “Big Show, stop!”

But it was too late-- Big Show was already gone, just as George arrived in the car with Vega, Orion and the Mane 6. “Elroy!” George said in relief that his son was safe. “Is Big Show with you?”

“Not anymore,” Elroy shook his head with worry. “Get in,” Sunny urged the boy. “You can tell us on the way!”

“Do you know where Big Show is going?” Misty asked as she helped Elroy into the car. “To Orbit City Arena,” Elroy responded. “He’s gonna confront Reactor Rollins and get the Heavyweight Championship belt!”

And not wasting another second, George launched the car in the direction that the taxi went, hoping to stop Big Show before he could make a big mistake that could shake the future to its core.

Problems Arise (Part 2)

Big Show could only think of one thing while he was on that taxi ride-- how rewarding it was going to be when he was crowned WWE World Heavyweight Champion... and in the future, no less!

And since he was the biggest wrestler in the WWE back in his time, there was no reason why he wouldn't have a chance to get the title, especially since Sheamus wasn't around to stand in his way.

Only after a few minutes, the cab finally approached Orbit City Arena, and the robotic cab driver turned toward Big Show after he got out. “That will be five billion star-bucks. Not including tip.”

Big Show balled his fist up and prepared to strike. “Here’s your tip!”

“Uh-oh.”

And before the robot knew what hit him, he and his cab were punched far out of Big Show's line of sight. “Dumb robot…” Big Show muttered before heading toward the doors of the arena and entering the building. “Rollins! ...huh?”

Instead of a human Reactor Rollins, Big Show saw a robot that looked like Seth Rollins and a robot that looked like Roman Reigns fighting down in the ring, but before he could step forward, a smaller politer robot stepped in his way. “Attention! Our Superstars are very busy warming up. Information-- our event does not start for another two hours.”

“I’m not here to watch it,” Big Show sneered. “I’m here to win it!”

“Observation-- you are human. Humans are not allowed in the ring.”

This tiny bit of information was enough to make Big Show reel back in shock. “What?! I thought that this was the WWE!”

The small robot gestured to the WWE sign not too far away. “Affirmation. World Wrobot Entertainment. The W is silent.”

“Robots?!”

Before Big Show protested again, the match between Reactor Rollins and Robot Roman Reigns finished with Reactor Rollins declared the winner. “You are victorious once again, Reactor Rollins. It has been a pleasure grappling with you, champ,” Robot Roman said, shaking Reactor Rollins' hand, to which the other robot gladly shook. “The pleasure is all mine.”

“Hey!” Big Show shouted to Reactor Rollins. “You Reactor Rollins?”

“Affirmative,” Reactor Rollins nodded in response. “You're wearing my championship belt,” Big Show said with a sneer. “But not for long.”

Without a single second to spare, Big Show leapt right into the ring to confront Reactor Rollins, who seemed generally surprised by the action.

But Big Show was too blinded by rage to see what he was truly becoming...

...and he had no idea that Allura and Twitch were watching from the shadows. “Twitch, that human is perfect to help us take control of this high-sky town!” Allura told her minion. “We just have to watch him for a bit longer, but once he is alone... he will be as good as ours.”

XXXXXXXX

“So, you actually had the guts to pilot an aircraft all by yourself without your parents knowing just so you could take Big Show to show and tell?” Zipp asked Elroy as they flew to the arena. “Elroy… I don’t know whether I should be disappointed in you or impressed.”

“Zipp, go easy on him,” Pipp told her sister. “We’ve all acted like that at some point.”

“Y-Yeah, Zipp,” Elroy spoke, a little ashamed. “I just wanted to show him off to all my friends. It's not every day your dad brings home an ice man.”

“It’s okay, son,” George said comfortingly. “I mean, how much trouble could one fellow get into?”

“Trust me, George, when you’re in our line of work,” Hitch said gravely, “there are usually a lot of thing that can go wrong.”

XXXXXXXX

Back inside the arena, Big Show was currently in the process of pummeling Reactor Rollins into the ground when finally... he pinned the robot, and after the free count, cackled and held the championship belt high above his head. “I AM THE CHAMPION!!!”

“Actually…” Reactor Rollins groaned, “...that battle was un-sanctioned.”

“Actually, lick by boot,” Big Show kicked Reactor Rollins again before growling and turning to the other robots that had gathered around. “You're an embarrassment to sports entertainment,” he sneered. “Where I come from, Superstars are made of blood, guts, and glory. They're warriors, forged in the fire of battle. Not tin cans bashing each other like bumper cars.”

“Hey!” said a figure dressed in a futuristic suit as he approached the chaos. “You’re not supposed to be in there! This is robots only!”

“Confession,” said the small robot. “Boss, I tried to stop him.”

Big Show actually had to stop himself for a moment, realizing how similar this man looked to another person he knew from his time. “Mr. McMahon? What are you doing in the future?”

“McMoon’s the name. Mr. McMoon,” the Mr. McMahon look-alike told Big Show. “McMahon was my great, great, great, great… well, you get the idea.”

That’s when Mr. McMoon pressed a button on the remote in his hand. “Get that human out of my ring!”

The robots, which included an Alicia Fox bot, Uso bots, a Stardust bot, a Dolph Ziggler bot and a Roman Reigns bot stepped into the ring and tried to surround Big Show. “Tick tock, cosmic block,” the Stardust bot taunted. “Time’s run out for you.”

“Agreed,” said the Dolph Ziggler bot. “It is too bad for you that I am too good.”

“Step aside, please,” said another robot, looking a lot like Big Show in terms of his outfit and stature. “I will escort this large human from the ring. Come with me, please.”

“Are you supposed to be me?” Big Show asked skeptically. “And did you just say please, twice?!”

“You asked for it, large human,” said the Big Show bot, advancing toward Big Show, who merely chuckled. “Oh, I'm not just large. I'm a giant!”

Big Show tossed the robot onto the ropes of the ring, causing him to fling back toward him, and when he got close enough, Big Show punched the robot right in the face before pinning him to the ground. “Jumping Jupiter!” cried Mr. McMoon in shock. “Annihilation!” the small robot exclaimed in panic. “The human defeated our largest Superstar bot!”

“Such moves do not exist in our database,” the Jimmy Uso bot spoke. “We must update our combat program,” the Alicia Fox bot stated. “No matter,” said the Stardust bot. “When Superstars align…”

“...no human can stop us,” said the Dolph Ziggler bot, and Big Show didn’t seem phased one bit. “This human's gonna teach you something new!”

Big Show leapt to attack the robots one by one, all while Allura and Twitch watched from the shadows, Allura chuckling in pleasure. “Once he’s alone, we convince him to use these Superstar robots to help us. And then… this city will be all ours… HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!”

At the same time, George had finally pulled up to the Orbit City Arena with Elroy, the ponies, Vega and Orion, and they all climbed out of the car to get readyd to go inside. “Do you think Big Show is okay, George?” Vega asked in concern. “Oh, I'm sure a fellow that size could take care of himself,” George tried to reassure her… just before the doors burst open, and a mangled Dolph Ziggler bot came out from the smoky doorway. “It’s a bolt bath in there…”

The ponies gasped as soon as the bot fell apart, and then, Big Show emerged from the doorway, putting the small polite robot over his shoulder and holding Mr. McMoon’s remote while he dragged Mr. McMoon out by the ankle. “Tribulation! Indignation! Mortification!” the small robot yelped. “This is an outrage!” Mr. McMoon exclaimed. “You can't just barge in here and take over my robots!”

“I just did,” Big Show sneered. “Verification,” the small robot whimpered. “He did!”

“Vega, Orion, get in the car and stay right there until we say otherwise,” Sunny told the leopards. “I don’t think Big Show is in his right mind right now.”

Vega and Orion immediately did as Sunny said, and the ponies led George and Elroy over to talk this out. “Oh, hey, Big Show,” George tried to casually greet. “W-W-What’s going on here?”

“He thinks he’s a WWE Superstar, Dad,” Elroy responded. “But only robots can be Superstars.”

“Wrong, kid,” Big Show sneered. “Superstars are supposed to be human. Not radio-controlled hunks of junk.”

“Ahhh, Big Show, remember, this is the future,” George tried to help Big Show recall. “Robots do everything here.”

“Right! What he said!” Mr. McMoon spoke. “Information,” said the smaller robot. “The police are on their way.”

“Whoa whoa whoa! No reason to involve the authorities and blow this all out of proportion,” Zipp spoke. “I-I’m sure we can work all this out.”

Suddenly, four policemen on hover-scooters appeared behind him, making the ponies even more nervous... if that could be possible. “You, with all the muscles!” said the first police officer. “Come quietly, or we'll be forced to ask you to come quietly again.”

“Great moons of Jupiter!” Rolf Rodriguez the reporter exclaimed with wide eyes as he looked at Big Show shortly after arriving. “Look at the size of it!”

George knew that this was getting out of control way too fast, so he had to try and settle the situation before it got worse. “Big Show, old buddy, old pal… please, let's just settle down and talk this through.”

“All right, enough of this funny business,” the first police officer stated before walking over to Big Show. “You’re coming with me!”

But as soon as he grabbed Big Show’s arm, the wrestler immediately tensed. “Oh, you just made the biggest mistake of your life.”

He then grabbed the police officer in a tight grip before launching him into a nearby floating billboard of baby food, causing the ponies to immediately realize that this was NOT how this was supposed to go. “Get him, boys!” the police officer shouted to his men, but Big Show stood ready as they approached. “I am the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. You don't get me. I get you.”

“Oh boy…!!” Misty gulped nervously as Big Show began to thrash police officers left and right, prompting Sunny to change into alicorn form. “Everypony, back in the car! I’ll cover you until you get there!”

“You heard her, guys! Let’s move!” Zipp told the others as they guided George and Elroy back to the car. “I am all three pony kinds, wrapped up into one!” Sunny cried as her cutie mark began to glow. “My cutie mark comes to life with hope bright as the sun!”

At her final words, a glowing shield formed over the car, deflecting the police officers that were thrown at them and causing Vega and Orion to whimper and hug George for protection. “This is Rolf Rodriguez, reporting live from Orbit City arena,” Rolf spoke into the camera, “where a riot has broken out between Orbit City security and a… a very, really, very big person.”

“That’s Big Show!”

XXXXXXXX

At the same time, at Spacely Sprockets, Mr. Spacely walked into his office with one of the strawberry smoothies that Sunny had stored in his refrigerator, sighing in content. “Here's to another day of no surprises.”

He turned on the TV in his office, which was on the news, and focusing on Big Show’s attack. “I am here with the ringleader of this hullabaloo. Goes by the name… Big Show,” Rolf said as he approached Big Show. “Mr. Big Show, I have one question. Why?”

“You future people make me sick. You allow robots to be your champions? Maybe you need a reminder of what a real champ can do. Starting right now,” Big Show declared, suddenly getting an idea. “I'm not just gonna be the champion of the ring. I'm gonna be the champion of the world. And I'm gonna use your own robots to help me do it.”

“You've heard it here first, folks. Big Show is planning to take over the world. For immediate reaction,” Rolf said, approaching George, who was still in the car with Sunny’s dome over it, “we turn to Big Show's old buddy and old pal. What do you have to say about this, sir?”

George merely slapped his hand across his eyes in terror. “What have I done?!”

Upon seeing George on screen, Mr. Spacely spit his smoothie out before yelling out in total anguish. “JETSOOOOOOON!!!!!”

XXXXXXXX

“Come on, George, hit the gas on this thing!” Orion yelped in desperation. “We have to go home and warn the rest of the family!”

“Way ahead of you, Orion!” George said, preparing to take off. “Sunny, get in!”

Sunny reluctantly did as he asked, and the car took off for safety. Once Big Show was finally alone, he cackled victoriously once all the officers and reporters had retreated as well.

Unfortunately, this was the perfect time that Allura chose to approach. “I have to say, Big Show,” Allura spoke slyly. “You certainly were impressive against all those robots. After all… you definitely proved that you are a champion.”

“And who are you?” Big Show asked with a look. “You don’t look like any futuristic cat that I've ever seen.”

“That’s because I am a snow leopard. Allura, the former ruler of Starlight Ridge, at your service,” Allura bowed her head. “And this is my assistant Twitch.”

Twitch gave a little salute with a chuckle, causing Big Show to roll his eyes. “If you haven’t already noticed, I’m getting ready to take over the world here. I don’t have TIME to talk to cats and rabbits.”

“Easy… we know what you’re thinking. You want to show everyone why you're the world champion, correct?” Allura asked, causing Big Show to nod. “Well… there is something I want to accomplish as well… so why don’t we team up and accomplish both of our goals together?”

“Hmmm…” Big Show hummed in thought, looking at the snow leopard and her rabbit minion. “It would be nice to take over the world and show that WWE Superstars are not these tin cans. But what's in it for you?”

“Well, remember those ponies who spoke to you before? I have some… beef with them,” Allura shrugged casually, fiddling with the star charm around her neck. “So, you could help us eliminate them, and we could help you eliminate someone that might try to take your title. Like… Sheamus, for instance?”

Hearing Sheamus’ name ticked a nerve inside Big Show, causing him to growl before he regained composure. “Well… he isn’t here, but anyone else? I’d be HAPPY to rip their pants off. And maybe have you two on board.”

“So… do we have a deal?” Allura lifted her paw. “If it helps me keep that title on me and show everyone that robots can’t be Superstars, then I guess it's better than no plan at all,” Big Show supposed, shaking Allura’s paw. “You have yourselves a deal.”

“Excellent!” Allura declared with a wicked shine in her eyes. “Now… we need to make sure our presence is known in this galactic metropolis.”

“Oh… I know how to do that. Follow me,” Big Show smirked, “and we’ll be sure to remind EVERYONE here who’s in charge… especially those prissy ponies.”

Allura and Twitch smirked at each other before following Big Show away.

It looks like things, if they haven’t already, have taken a turn for the worst.

Author's Note

I had some really BIG help with the scene that Allura and Twitch teamed up with Big Show, by a dear friend named Big Imagination E-- give them your love, ponies!

Big Show and Allura's Takeover Begins/Heading to the Past

At the same time that Big Show and Allura and Twitch were making a deal to team up, George had flown the car halfway across the city by that point, making the ponies, Vega, Orion and Elroy worried.

What was gonna be Big Show’s next move? They had no idea that he had teamed up with Allura and Twitch, so it was not going to be good when they did find out.

After a few moments, Pipp looked out of the window out of concern. “Um… George? Don’t you think we should go back and help stop Big Show? I mean… it is what we do best.”

“And besides,” Elroy told his father, “this IS kind of our fault.”

“I think the authorities have it under control,” George said nervously. “Meanwhile, I think it's time for a Jetson family vacation. On Mars!”

Suddenly, the car phone began ringing, and the ponies tensed when they saw Mr. Spacely appear on the screen. “Jetson!” Mr. Spacely barked. “I expressly said no surprises!”

“I’m sorry,” George tried to scoot out of his line of sight. “George Jetson isn’t here right now.”

“I can see you!”

“Please leave a message,” George said nervously, “and he will return your call at his earliest convenience.”

“Jetson, you’re fi--”

Immediately, Vega hit the disconnect button to end the call. “Oops! Lost the connection!” she said nervously before chuckling in the same manner. “No telling WHERE he was going with that sentence.”

“The most important thing right now,” said Hitch, “is getting back to the apartment and figuring out how we can stop Big Show from accomplishing his schemes of world domination!”

“And,” Izzy gulped, “before all of our rears are cooked!”

XXXXXXXX

Within just a few short minutes, the ponies, Vega, Orion, George and Elroy arrived back at the apartment. “Hey, Janey. Great news!” George called to his wife. “I decided you were right. I'm done putting work before our family. So we're going on vacation, right now!”

“Daddy! Thank you, thank you, thank you!” Judy suddenly ran into the room, kissing her father before waving her pom poms around. “Your friend Big Show is so cosmic!”

“My friend?” George looked confused. “Judy, why aren’t you at school?”

“My history class was canceled, my history test delayed!” Judy chanted, waving her pom-poms around. “The whole school was sent home today 'cause Big Show's gone crazy, and is running wild in the city! Whoo-hoo!”

“Huh… you know, Elroy,” Vega said, “only your sister can find a reason to cheer for the apocalypse.”

However, Judy heard this and lightly bonked Vega on the head, causing the cub to meow in protest. “Hold on a sec,” Zipp suddenly realized something. “Judy, how in the world did you know about Big Show’s little, uh… moment?”

“Uh… Zipp?” Orion pointed his paw to the TV, still broadcasting about the events from earlier. “Orbit City News Network brings you an update on the Big Show Rampage.”

“Uh-oh...” George and the ponies gulped before they approached Jane, who was watching as Big Show's robots took people into the city jail when they didn't fall in line... and Rolf Rodriguez was covering all of these events. “Rolf Rodriguez, live from city hall, where Big Show and his gang of wrestling robots have taken over Orbit City!”

And needless to say, when the ponies saw Jane turn to her husband, they could tell she was less than pleased. “What did you do?”

George gulped nervously, and was about to defend himself, when Rolf suddenly said something that shook them all to the core. “Wait! This just in, folks! It appears that a flying purple wild cat and a rabbit have teamed up with Big Show and his robots as well!”

The second this was said, the ponies crowded around the couch to see Allura and Twitch keeping people moving to Time Warp Square, where Big Show was set to make his big announcement.

Sunny immediately gasped upon this. “That’s Allura and Twitch!”

“The evil snow leopard and her rabbit sidekick you told us about?!” Vega blurt out before becoming nervous. “Oh boy…”

“But how in the world did they get here? I thought you said they had no idea about Orbit City!” Judy said as she, Elroy, Astro and Rosie approached. “There’s your answer, Judy! See that star shard around Allura’s neck?” Misty pointed out the glowing shard around the snow leopard’s neck. “That shard has a lot of power inside, and Allura must’ve figured out how to use it to get here!”

“So now we have TWO power hungry bad guys on the loose?!” Orion blurt out. “Actually, Twitch is kinda small, and honestly kinda harmess, so I’d call it… eh, two-and-a-half power hungry bad guys,” George said, trying to be funny, only to get a glare from the ponies. “You know what…? Bad timing.”

“Yes, George,” Pipp said with an annoyed look. “VERY bad timing on your part.”

“For further comment,” said Rolf on the TV, “we go to Mayor Mercury.”

The mayor in question was now struggling in the grip of one of the robots as he tried to tell Big Show off. “You’ll never get away with this! Uh, someone will stop you!”

“No one can stop us!” Allura got in the mayor’s face. “And I think Big Show would agree that this future is full of WIMPS!!”

“You make an excellent point,” Mayor Mercury gulped in fear. “Just as Orbit City fell to us, so too will the rest of the Earth,” Big Show told the people of the city. “From this point on, you will all do whatever we say, or you will face our robots!”

“All hail Allura and Big Show,” the robots spoke in unison. “All hail Allura and Big Show.”

“Hail hard,” said the Roman Reigns bot, “and hail often!”

“Kneel,” Big Show declared, “for the Snow Leopard Queen and the new World Heavyweight Champion of the world!”

As many of the people down below stood in complete fear, there was one who decided to stand him for himself... or at least what he thought of Big Show's self-proclaimed title. “That’s redundant!”

“I believe,” Allura snarled, “he said to kneel!”

And before anyone knew it, Allura sent a hypnotic purr down to him, making the man fall under her control within seconds, bowing down low and causing many, including the Jetsons and ponies watching the TV, to gasp in shock. “That’s one little falling star,” the Stardust bot declared. “Who will fall next?”

Not wanting to suffer under Allura's magic spell, the rest of the citizens in Time Warp Square got down on their knees as a sign of bowing down to the new rulers. “I AM THE GREATEST GIANT OF ALL TIME!!!” Big Show declared before he and Allura cackled madly… just before George shut the TV off.

And after a moment, George finally spoke to those stunned into silence. “I hear Mars is beautiful this time of year! Shall we…?”

“George!” Jane scolded. “What?” George tried to defend himself. “How was I supposed to know he was an evil, power-hungry madman when we thawed him out?! This is not my fault!”

“Dad’s right,” Elroy stepped forward. “This isn’t his fault.”

“It’s not?” the ponies, Jane and George said in surprise, and Elroy let a guilty look wash over his face. “If I hadn't taken Big Show to school, he never would have found out about Reactor Rollins, and none of this would have ever happened.”

While Astro, Jane and the ponies glanced down at Elroy with a sympathetic look, George was the only one who crossed his arms in disappointment. “Elroy, I am shocked!”

“George!” Astro barked, appalled. “Seriously?!” Pipp and Zipp shouted at once, making George instantly correct himself. “Shocked that you would think this is your fault,” he said quickly, kneeling next to Elroy. “None of us knew that Big Show would turn out to be a future-hating, robot-smashing monster determined to conquer the world as we know it.”

Elroy didn't seem to feel any better with this bit of information, but that's when George decided to get really sincere and speak from the heart. “The point is, Elroy, you tried to befriend him when it was clear he was lost. That makes you a bigger man than him.”

Everyone else smiled at this touching moment between father and son… well, all except Judy. “Yuck!”

“Okay, everyone, listen up,” Sunny said, standing up on the couch to face everyone. “We know how to deal with Allura and get under her fur, but Big Show is an entirely new enemy that we barely know nothing about.”

“It’s true! Pipp’s searched just about every website,” Misty said, “and we’ve found practically nothing! But you know… WWE does sound a little familiar.”

“WWE…?” Pipp hummed, deep in thought. “You know, that kinda rings a bell for me too.”

“Sunny, you guys know Allura better than any of us,” Vega said. “How do you think we should stop her?”

“Vega’s right! If we take Allura and Twitch out,” pointed out Orion, “Big Show might be less of a threat!”

“Well, we haven’t figured out an exact weakness,” Sunny pointed out, “but I do know this-- Allura is usually no match for someone by herself, even with Twitch nearby. Our magic gets stronger whenever we work together as a team, so the more teamwork we have, the better chance we might have.”

Suddenly, the Roman Reigns robot appeared outside of the Jetsons’ apartment building, prompting everyone to gather around the window. “Attention, citizens of Orbit City!”

“Oh, my…” Rosie said, finding the robot handsome and good looking. “He’s a handsome bucket of bolts.”

“By order of world champion Big Show,” the Roman Reigns bot declared, “everyone is to report to Time Warp Square for commencement of manual labor.”

“Manual labor?” George looked panicked. “Like a man? Doing the labor?!”

“At least there’s no such thing as womanual labor,” Judy joked. “Right? Ha ha! Huh?”

“Judy, forgive me for being blunt,” Zipp said with a deadpan look, “but you’re not gonna last a day in the post-apocalypse.”

As Judy huffed at the comment, Rosie suddenly had a thought. “Humans working for robots… I always wondered what that would be like.”

“Eeep!!” Vega and Orion yelped in panic while everyone else looked frightened. “Just kidding,” Rosie brushed off. “You know I love ya.”

“Ahh… don’t worry, everybody,” George told the others. “We’ve worked too hard to have to work hard.”

“Move it, or you will lose it,” the Roman Reigns bot said, moving closer to the window. “Believe that.”

“Down!” Zipp whispered, and everyone ducked out of sight for a few moments… at least until George and Sunny peeked their heads out of hiding, seeing that the bot was gone. “Okay, guys,” Sunny whispered. “I think the coast is clear.”

Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and George yelped and clung onto Sunny as the robot appeared on the monitor that the doorbell camera was hooked to. “Exit the apartment and come with me.”

“On my way, gorgeous,” Rosie told the robot before Zipp stopped her from going forward. “Uh, yeah, sure, be right there. Just have to use the bathroom. Might take a while. Had a big lunch,” George said, moving to the back of the group before whispering. “Follow me. I know exactly how to handle this.”

That’s when the entire group went down the back tube into the parking garage where the car was, and quickly made their escape, leaving the Roman Reigns bot behind. “Alas, my prince,” Rosie sighed. “Twas not meant to be.”

“What now, Pops?” Elroy asked from his seat next to Zipp. “If there’s one thing I know, Elroy,” George said from the driver’s seat, “it's when to flee for our lives! Mars, here we come!”

“George Jetson, you turn this car around right now,” Jane ordered. “You have to let the ponies stop Allura and you have to go talk Big Show out of conquering the world!”

“Me?!”

“She’s right, George. You’re the one who really thawed him out,” Sunny said, “so you might be the only one he’ll listen to!”

“Sunny, you might know how to stop Allura and that’s all well and good,” George told her, “but I’m telling you-- Big Show? There’s no one who can stop that guy!”

Suddenly, Judy gasped in realization as Pipp showed her information she had found on her phone. “Wait! There is! Or, at least, there was.”

“What are you talking about, Judy?” Jane asked in confusion. “Don't waste your time, Mom. Even she doesn't know what she's talking about,” Elroy shrugged before Judy pulled his baseball cap down. “Hey!”

“We've been studying the early 21st century in history class,” Judy explained, pulling up several images, thanks to her bracelet. “Back then, humans like Big Show battled each other all the time.”

Orion immediately stopped the explanation with shock in his voice. “Are you sayin’ WWE was people?!”

“Huge people! Look! Here’s a picture of Big Show that I found online!” Pipp said, showing George her phone. “And it says,” Judy added, pointing to the man next to Big Show, “this man called Sheamus was his greatest rival.”

“Of course, now I remember Shaggy and Scooby telling us about WWE before on one of our earlier missions!” Misty smiled. “I can’t believe we never connected the dots until now!”

“Well,” Hitch sighed, “it’s too bad we don’t have Sheamus to help bail George out of this mess.”

“What would you guys have me do, Hitch?” George asked. “Go back in time and ask for his help?”

“Actually, Dad--” Elroy tried to say. “I mean, you're talking time-travel,” said George. “That’s impossible for anyone besides ponies of your caliber to do.”

“Dad,” Elroy spoke again, “if you and the ponies had seen my science project--”

“Yes, Elroy,” George sighed, “we missed the science fair and I'm sorry.”

“Why?” Judy crossed her arms. “Did you WANT to be bored out of your mind?”

Finally, after everyone had been silenced, Elroy took the chance to explain. “My project hypothesized that utilizing the gravity well of a massive astronomical object could accelerate a spacecraft fast enough to breach the tachyon barrier of the space-time continuum.”

“Um… could you explain that for somepony who’s not a genius?” Pipp asked, causing Zipp to sigh and roll her eyes. “Flying around the moon will slingshot us back in time.”

“Ohhhhhhhhh....”

But immediately after everyone seemed to get what Elroy and Zipp were saying, more Superstar bots appeared behind them and chased them further into the city. “Unauthorized space-car. You are ordered to land immediately.”

“My prince!” Rosie exclaimed, seeing the Roman bot following them. “Couldn’t eep away from me, could ya, handsome?”

“Hold on, Jetsons!!” George said and accelerated the car further into the sky, past some signs (that the robots just seemed to barrel through), until they started to breach the Earth’s atmosphere). “According to Elroy’s calculations,” Vega said, looking at Elroy’s tablet, “you need to go a little faster, George!”

“I don’t need a calculator to tell me that!” George told the leopard cub, and after a moment, Elroy looked at his equation again. “If only I had a timeframe destination for my equation.”

“Judy, take a look at what I just found!” Pipp showed Judy her phone, causing Judy’s eyes to widen with intrigue. “Wow! It says here that Big Show was scheduled to battle Sheamus in Albuquerque, New Mexico, but he never appeared. He vanished from WWE…”

“...exactly 100 years ago today!” Zipp finished with a chuckle. “What are the chances?!”

“Cosmic! Izzy, I need your help!” Elroy exclaimed before he and Izzy leapt to the front of the car and started adjusting some wires. “Izzy, Elroy!” Sunny cried in surprise. “What are you--?”

“I'm jacking the universal precisional system into the space-time de-modulator,” Elroy explained as he did such, “reversing polarity, and setting it for exactly 100 years ago.”

“Will that work, sweetie?” Jane asked. “It will,” Izzy said, “if we work off of theory.”

“We’re dead,” Astro muttered as the robots began to hit them in the rear, causing him to hold onto Rosie tightly. “We’re all dead!”

“Floor it, Vega!” Orion yelled to his sister as the Superstar bots got closer, causing Vega to screech and slam her paws on the button. This caused the space-car to lurch faster and faster toward the moon, nearly pushing the ponies back in their seats. “Everypony,” Sunny screeched, “hold on!!”

Soon, the car began to spin around the moon, faster and faster and faster as the screaming reached its loudest...

...and soon, a flash of light overtook them, sending them to a moment in time where they would find the Superstar help they needed.

Chaos in the Ring

The night air was calm outside the Albuquerque, New Mexico arena, and many people were gathered for the Friday Night Smackdown event for the WWE universe.

But, what these people didn't know were that people from the future and some Equestrians were going to be dropping in, but not just for the personal enjoyment... but also to get WWE Superstars to help them save Orbit City and the sake of the future from Big Show and Allura.

A portal opened up in the sky, letting the car with the Jetsons, the ponies, Vega and Orion inside, screaming their heads off, come through, and after a moment, the car stopped in mid-air, letting most of the group stop and catch their breath from the experience.

Finally, Astro was the first of the group to speak out of relief. “We’re alive!!”

Vega and Orion yelped as the car came crashing down, landing perfectly in a parking spot on the ground, just before a teenager scrolling through his phone and not really paying attention to the group. “Welcome to Greenzone Parking, that'll be 40 bucks.”

“Welcome to… where?” George asked in confusion. “The timestamp on local internet channels confirms it!” Judy said out of excitement. “We just traveled 100 years into the past!”

Vega immediately shook her head before her eyes widened in shock. “Into the when?!”

“It worked… it worked!! Eat that, Bobby Booster!” Elroy bragged. “My time travel theory worked!”

“Bu-- but… b-b-but how?!” George asked in shock. “Who cares?! We time-traveled, and that’s literally the coolest thing I’ve ever done! WHOO-HOO!!” Orion whooped and leapt out of the car with the rest of the Jetsons and the ponies. “Are we on the surface?” Jane asked in awe. “Of the Earth?”

“Of the parking lot,” the teenager responded. “40 bucks, please.”

“Oh, uh… we’ll get to that in a minute,” Sunny told the teenager politely. “Okay, before we get started, are we even sure that we’re in the right place?”

“Hey, check out that sign up there!” Izzy pointed to the large WWE logo. “We must be at some kind of WWE event!”

“Then this is where we'll find more big people!” Jane spoke with a smile. “People who can stop Big Show!”

“Well, all right, Jetsons,” George said, approaching the group and standing between Elroy and Judy. “Maybe we have a shot at saving Orbit City, after all. Thanks to my boy, Elroy, and daughter, Judy. I'm very proud of you kids.”

“Thanks, Dad.”

“Thanks, Dad!”

“40… bucks!” the teenager responded irritably. “Rosie,” said George, “ you stay here with the car and give this man what he needs.”

“Oh, sure, Mr. J,” Rosie responded sarcastically. “I traveled back 100 years just so I could watch the car.”

The teenager turned to look at Rosie with wide eyes. “You’re a… a talking robot?!”

“Yeah. I came from the future to conquer your world. Boo!” Rosie spoke to the teenager, scaring him out of his wits and scaring him off. “Pfft. Primitive.”

“Um… I’ll stay here with Rosie too, Vega,” Orion told his sister. “Just in case the car needs protecting.”

“Okay, Orion-- be safe,” Vega told her brother sincerely. “Star cub’s honor,” Orion told his sister, bumping their star tags together and letting them shimmer before he got back into the car. “Now let's find some Superstars that can help us,” Sunny told her friends, new and old. “And keep an eye out for more like Big Show that can hurt us.”

“All right, everyone, let’s go!” George declared, and while the ponies trotted toward the building, the Jetsons and Vega hopped onto the sidewalk like it was one of the ones back in Orbit City, and the sidewalk not moving confused them. “Why aren’t we moving?” Vega asked in confusion, only for Elroy to shrug. “I think the slidewalk's broken.”

“Now, hold on. Maybe it's just turned off. We just need to find the button,” Jane told her kids before pressing a car headlight. “Slidewalk on, please.”

However, like the ponies expected, this didn’t work. “Hello? Are you there?” Jane pressed the headlight again. “I’m not sure what’s wrong.”

“Uh, guys? Slight difference between these times,” Zipp cringed as she spoke. “Slidewalks haven’t exactly been invented yet.”

“Hey, get a load of those sci-fi costumes,” said one of the men walking past them, causing one of the other men to laugh. “ That convention was last week, nerds!”

“Hey! I heard that!” Vega snarled with her wings spread, and was about to pounce when Sunny held her back. “It’s okay, Vega-- people here can be really big jokesters. At least… I hope that was a joke.”

“Either way, we all know what this means,” George gulped. “We’re walking.”

XXXXXXXX

Frankly, none of the Jetsons were thrilled about walking, but the ponies were able to convince them to give it a chance-- especially since they were in this thing together.

Only after a few minutes of walking, the Jetsons were completely exhausted. “How much longer before they invent slidewalks?” Jane panted. “All this walking is killing my feet.”

“Such an archaic society,” George panted. “How far have we gone?”

But when the Jetsons looked back, they saw that they were only a couple yards away from the car. “Car’s okay!” Rosie called. That’s when George turned to her husband with a question in mind. “George, how will we get into this show if we don't have any tickets?”

“Oh, not to worry, Janey,” George reassured. “We'll sneak in the back door. Just like that theater I took you to on our first date.”

“Ugh…” Jane sighed. “Like you had to remind me.”

“Hey! Look over there!” Izzy pointed to the back door of the arena, where a security guard was keeping watch. That's when the group automatically assumed that this was the only other way in besides the front entrance.

While hiding behind some cars in the parking lot, the group saw Alicia Fox and Brooks exit the nearby trailer, and George found himself staring a bit longer than the others, making Jane a bit suspicious. “Oh! That’s Alicia Fox. She’s a Superstar,” Judy said, leading Pipp to gasp. “That’s totally gotta be where the Superstars enter the building!”

“That makes sense,” said Zipp before pointing to Brooks, “but who is he?”

“It says on this website Pipp sent me that some of the Superstars have sidekicks, and that the Superstars train the sidekicks to be wrestlers themselves,” Sunny told the others. “So, that’s gotta be Alicia’s leopard sidekick.”

Vega tilted her head at him out of curiosity, and when Brooks’ star tag shimmered in the light, she gasped. “George, look… he has a tag just like mine! Down to the very last detail!”

“Huh… well, maybe you two got ‘em from the same person,” George shrugged. “But with a 100-year time difference?” asked Hitch with a raised eyebrow. “That seems a little sketchy.”

“Oooh… it’s getting chilly out here,” Brooks told Alicia as they prepared to enter the building. “Don't catch a cold, big guy,” Alicia told the security guard as he let them inside. “No, ma’am,” said the security guard. “Thank you, Miss Fox.”

“Wow…” George said, fascinated. “They make Superstars that look like her?”

Jane scoffed at this. “George!”

“What George means to say is we just need to look like her,” Hitch corrected for George quickly. “And then we can get through that door!”

“So... what you're saying is... we need makeovers?” Pipp asked with an excited smile. “Uh, not in so many words,” George shrugged, “but yeah.”

Pipp squealed and pranced in place. “George Jetson, you've just said my secret word! Come on-- first mission is to get into that trailer, and then I can work my fashion magic on all of you and make you look cosmic fantastic!”

The group secretly snuck inside the trailer, where Pipp began to put her fashion skills to good use, and crafted WWE disguises for the group, and her cutie mark magic made them look better than ever before.

Pretty soon, pretty much all of the Jetsons looked like WWE Superstars:

Astro was dressed like Kane
Elroy was dressed like Roman Reigns
Judy was dressed as Becky Lynch
Jane was dressed as Charlotte

George and Vega, however, wore their own unique futuristic wrestling outfits as they came out of the trailer, and they waited for the ponies to come out and show off their unique styles.

Zipp wore a half yellow/half pink wrestling outfit with a matching mask, two pink bracelets on her front right hoof and two yellow bracelets on her back left hoof, going under the name Savage Storm.
Pipp wore her mane partly in a ponytail with some of it hanging down, and she also wore a purple top and boots on her hooves with several white patterns on them, going by the alter-ego of Dazzling Diamond.
Izzy wore an outfit of blue and white boots and an outfit and mask made of those similar colors, and her hair, like Pipp's was tied in a half ponytail, going by the name of Craft Queen.
Misty wore an outfit of a dark purple jacket and stockings on her legs that were the same colors as her mane, just darker, and her mane in a ponytail, going by the name of Dark Mist.
Hitch wore an outfit consisting of white pants with green boots and wraps around his front legs and a white and green mask, going by the name Power Sheriff.
Lastly, Sunny wore an outfit consisting of her signature saddlebag, an orange-gold mask, and an outfit and boots made of the same material and the same color, going by the name of Shimmering Dawn.

When everyone was out of the trailer, they stepped closer to the security guard to put their plan into action. “Becky Lynch, Charlotte, Reigns, Kane,” the security guard acknowledged all of the Jetsons… except Vega, George and the Mane 6. “Hey, hey, hey. You're no Superstars! Who are you?”

“I’m uh… Future Guy?” George said nervously. “And this is Star Leopard and the uh… Unity Squad?”

“Nice cover! That’s our actual nickname for ourselves!” Pipp whispered. “Uh… yeah,” Jane tried to keep up the act. “We're escorting these new Superstars to the ring.”

“By order of… Mr. McMahon!” Judy then added. “Mr. McMahon? Oh, yes, ma’am, Miss Lynch!” the security guard immediately opened the door. “Come right in!”

“Thanks, big guy,” Jane smiled gratefully as they all walked inside. “Oh, anytime, Miss Charlotte,” the security guard said, watching them go inside before smiling and sighing. “She has always been my favorite Superstar.”

XXXXXXXX

Once the group had bypassed the security guard, the Jetsons removed parts of their disguises, while the Mane 6 chose to keep them on just for fashion statements. “Are we backstage?” Jane asked quietly. “Well, it's so dark in here, I can't tell,” George admitted. “Didn't they have interior lighting 100 years ago?”

“I’m sure there’s a light switch around here someplace,” Vega told him. “We just have to look for it.”

“Ladies and gentlemen,” said a voice from the speakers, “welcome to WWE!”

In a split second, the entire stadium was flooded with neon lights and spotlights. Pyrotechnics shot high into the air, causing the crowd to cheer, whistle, and howl with excitement.

And needless to say, the Jetsons, Vega and the ponies couldn't believe their ears and eyes. “Whoaaaaa…!!” Misty and Izzy said at once, eyes wide. There was no wonder why WWE was so popular now!

From the stage entrance a pair of twin wrestlers exited. The screen displayed "Uso Crazy" as the two wrestlers made their way to the ring. “Uso? That’s a weird name,” Zipp said. “Is it some sort of code word?”

“Uso is, apparently, slang for brother,” Pipp said, having already pulled it up on her phone. “So… I guess they’re twin brothers.”

“Aww…” Vega smiled. “Me and Orion have to come up with nicknames for one another!”

“Let’s just sit back and watch,” said Sunny. “I’m sure Sheamus will be out here eventually.”

The two wrestlers brothers were pitted against two heavy-weight wrestlers... however, that was easy pickings for them. The two other wrestlers were thrashed with body slam, after body slam, and while one was able to get the upper-hand on one brother, the other brother was there to put a stop to it. The brothers forced the two others to the ground and the bell rung, announcing the brothers' victory.

The crowd cheered and howled once again, and while George and Vega's smiles grew wider, many fans held up complimentary signs, flashed pictures, and recorded videos.

The next wrestler to enter the ring was Roman Reigns. He slid his hand down his arm, like he was loading a gun. In the ring, he tackled his opponent to the ground. And whenever his opponent would retaliate, he always grabbed them and threw them to the ropes. He finished them off with a vicious choke slam, and soon, he was also the winner of his own match.

At this point, the Jetsons, ponies, and Vega were cheering along with the crowd, finally seeing the true excitement of pro wrestling.

Up next was Alicia Fox. She sauntered across the stage with the pyrotechnics going off, lighting the entire stadium alight. She got to work against another female wrestler, and specialized in throws, forcing her opponent into the ground, whether that was through a arching them over with her legs or threw a suplex. She finished her opponent off with a final slamdown, and like before, the crowd went crazy again.

George finally found his voice after these matches, amazed beyond belief. “Got to admit, Big Show was right. Robots just don't do WWE justice.”

“I had no idea that humans could be so… so… physical!” Jane exclaimed. “And if I may say so,” Zipp spoke, “this may be one of the most awesome things I’ve ever seen!”

“Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars!” Pipp and Judy chanted. “WWE’s got Superstars! YAY!!”

“Yay!” Astro barked, also into the event. But, while the others were focused on how much fun they were having, Vega had spotted a sight down below that made her extremely curious.

Clover and Amiri were down in the bottom of the arena, sitting on special beds and ready to watch the match... and they too had a tag just like hers.

That got Vega interested immediately-- maybe she had more of a connection to these leopards than she or anyone else thought!

Just then, Irish themed intro music played throughout the arena, and the one that they call Sheamus entered the arena, the spotlight right on him. “Faugh… a… ballagh!!”

“There he is, guys!” Misty pointed out. “It’s Sheamus!”

“Wow,” Elroy commented. “He sure looks like a champion!”

“Uh, a little on the pale side, but yeah,” Hitch shrugged, just as commentator Michael Cole began to commentate over the match ahead. “ Oh, we are lined up for an exciting match here tonight, folks. With the number one contender, Big Show, still missing in action, we have a new contender for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Seth Rollins, the self-proclaimed future of WWE, has stepped up to prove he's just that.”

“Still white as a ghost, huh, Sheamus? Good,” Seth Rollins challenged Sheamus as he walked down to the ring. “Cause a ghost is all you're gonna be after I take that title away from you. Ha ha ha! Am I right, everybody?”

However, everyone else, except the Jetsons, ponies and the leopards down in the ring, began to boo at the arrogant WWE wrestler. “Uh-oh…” Misty gulped. “That Seth guy looks dangerous!”

“And,” George added in worry, “if he manages to hurt Sheamus, we'll lose our champ!”

That’s when the group made an attempt to get down to the arena floor, just as the match began. Seth and Sheamus began by locking hands, just before Seth pulled Sheamus into an arm-lock, to which Sheamus countered by sending Seth down onto the floor with a loud crash...

...and leaving Seth to groan in pain. “Oh! My arm!”

“It looks like the champ is getting the upper hand early in this match,” Michael commented, causing the crowd, plus Clover and Amiri, to cheer. But as Sheamus walked over to Seth to finish him off, Seth suddenly laughed and looked at him. “Sucker!”

“Huh?”

The next thing Sheamus knew, Seth had elbowed him hard, sending him right back into the corner of the ring. “Oh!” Michael groaned. “But it was all a devious plan by Rollins to lure Sheamus in for a suckerpunch. That's why they call him The Architect, folks.”

“Oh, we have to get him out of there!” Vega said worriedly as she and her friends approached the barricade keeping the fans from the arena. “Is there a… a button to stop the wrestling?” Jane asked. “No, Janey, no buttons,” George said, making a clear decision in his mind. “Sunny and I are just gonna have to go talk to Sheamus.”

“Right behind you, George!” Sunny said, easily leaping over the barricade before George followed after her… only he tripped and fell right on his face. “George!” Pipp and Zipp yelped in shock. “Fine! I’m fine,” George responded in a daze, and Sunny chuckled nervously and pushed him forward. “Talking to Sheamus now…”

From over where they were sitting, Amiri tapped Clover on the shoulder when she saw Sunny and George at ringside. “Hey… who do you think those two are? They’re not like any Superstar we’ve met.”

“No… I don’t know who they are. I think we better go tell the others about this, in case things go south,” Clover told her friend. “Come on.”

And just like that, the two leopards flew off to find their friends backstage, just as George and Sunny approached the ropes, where Sheamus was standing. “Uh, excuse me, Mr. Sheamus?” George called out politely. “Could me and my friend here have a word with you?”

“Uh, yeah,” Sunny nodded in agreement. “It's kind of... well, it's really important.”

“Hey! You two! Get away from my title belt!” Sheamus told the duo before he was grabbed by Seth, and tossed and knocked around before landing on the ground in a daze.

George and Sunny screamed at this, while many of the fans began to murmur out of confusion. “This is unbelievable,” Michael shook his head as he watched the action. “A couple of costumed fans jumped the barrier and they are distracting Sheamus at ringside. They must be working for Seth Rollins.”

“No no no no! We're trying to save the future!” George tried to protest, picking up Sheamus' title belt. “We need the champ!”

“This guy’s lost it!” Michael commented with wide eyes. “He’s actually stealing the WWE World Heavyweight title!”

“Huh?!” Sunny blinked in surprise, and the next thing she knew, the crowd was already starting to boo at them before she could have time to explain. “You and your friend there are gonna need two caskets each, fella!” Sheamus told George. “Cause I’m gonna break you in half!”

“Ha ha!” Seth laughed as he grabbed Sheamus and pulled the same move as before on Sheamus again, causing George to scream and Sunny to wince. And just as Sunny thought the circumstance couldn’t get any worse… it got worse. “Oh, thank heavens!” Michael told the crowd as Clover, Amiri, Jaya and Brooks arrived with Jimmy and Jey Uso, as well as Alicia Fox. “The Uso brothers, Alicia Fox and some of their leopard trainees are all headed to ringside to take down these Superstar impostors!”

“Uh-oh! I-I don’t think we have time to talk things out peacefully, George!” Sunny yelped. “RUN!!!”

The two began running just as Jaya was about to pounce on them with her claws unfurled, causing her to lead the charge as the Superstars and leopards chased Sunny and George while Seth and Sheamus continued their fight. “It's absolute pandemonium here tonight!” Michael commentated to the crowd. “Mayhem inside the ring, chaos outside. I've never seen anything like it!”

“Did Sheamus say he’d help us, dear?” Jane asked George as he and Sunny ran past with the Superstars and leopards in pursuit. “I think Sunny and Dad are recruiting more help for us!” Judy told her mother. “Way to go, Pops!” Elroy cheered. “Zipp, we gotta do something!” Misty exclaimed. “We gotta go help them!”

“I wish we could Misty, but we’d be causing an even bigger scene,” said Zipp. “We just have to wait until the time is right.”

“The trouble just got doubled!” Michael then announced as Roman Reigns ran down the stairs. “Roman Reigns is here!”

“Mr. Sheamus! Mr. Sheamus!” George shouted as he and Sunny continued to be chased by the Uso brothers, Amiri and Jaya, while Alicia, Brooks and Clover stopped near Roman, who got an idea. “Let’s cut them off.”

So, they headed to the other side of the ring to stop George and Sunny from escaping, while in the ring, Sheamus now had Seth in a very uncomfortable pin. “Nobody escapes my lucky Cloverleaf hold!”

Sunny gasped as soon as she saw that the Superstars and leopard cubs had surrounded them, and the cubs didn’t look very happy to see them… or that they were stealing the championship title. That’s when Sunny looked down at her cutie mark and got an idea. “George, get into the ring and wait for me! I’ll hold them off!”

“Uh… o-okay, but be careful!” George told her before scrambling into the ring. That’s when Sunny let her alicorn form develop completely, and with the stomp of her hooves, sent a shockwave that blasted the leopards and Superstars away from her, causing them scream and to fall back to the ground.

Brooks shook his head to clear it, eyes wide with shock. “Did you guys just--?”

“See that earth pony change into an alicorn?” Jaya asked. “Yeah, we all saw it, and she’s getting away!”

“This is our chance to get in there! Come on!” Hitch told the other ponies, and they leapt past the barrier and toward the ring. “Vega, Jetsons, stay right here!” Zipp told them. “We’ll be right back!”

After telling the family this, the white pegasus joined her friends as they saw Sunny climb into the ring with George. “Mr. Sheamus, sir,” said George desperately, “we kinda need your help to save the future!”

But, by the time the other members of the Mane 6 got into the ring, they heard a startling cry from the Superstars outside the ring. “GET ‘EM!!”

“Uh-oh!!”

And the next thing the Mane 6 knew, they were trying to keep George safe while trying to keep themselves from being brutally beaten by Superstars in the process. “Unbelievable. The ring has erupted in absolute chaos! The ref has been tossed out of the ring!” Michael said as all the chaos went down. “It's total anarchy! It's a schmuz! And it's about to get schmuzzier!”

At that moment, the security guard from the back entrance came through the doorway and came running toward the action. “WWE security is here,” Michael said, “but what can he do to contain this madness?”

“Oh no!” Misty cried upon seeing the security guard entering the ring... unfortunately, the guard started getting caught up in all the chaos as well. “Just when you thought it couldn't get crazier…” Michael couldn’t believe the chaos he was seeing, “...it got crazier!”

During all the chaos, George was tossed to and fro, between different Superstars until he eventually bounced off the ropes, smashing right into Sheamus, knocking him down and landing right on top of Seth as the ref staggered back to the ring and made the three count. “One... two... three!”

As the bell rang, the match was over, and much to the happiness of the rest of the Jetsons, George had won... much to the audience's anger...

...and the Superstars' shock, as well as their trainees. “By me sainted mother…” Sheamus gasped. “Okay, I’m just gonna say it,” Pipp groaned as she tried to stand. “What in Equestria did we just do?”

“Uh… I think George won the WWE World Heavyweight title!” Izzy exclaimed. “At least… I think.”

George slowly regained consciousness after this, and the first thing he saw was Vega and the rest of his family cheering for his success. This caused him to smile before Michael Cole helped him to his feet. “And the winner is… uh… what’s your name, buddy?”

George smiled, almost too happy to realize what had just happened. “Future Guy!”

“...Future Guy!”

But instead of being met with cheers, the ponies were as shocked as George to see the crowd booing in displeasure. “Future Guy?!” Seth immediately protested. “Hey, he can't have that name! I’m the undisputed future of WWE!”

“And besides, he and those ponies aren’t even real Superstars!” Jaya snarled. “They just sabotaged the entire act!”

“If it weren’t for Clover and Amiri coming to get us,” Brooks snapped, “we would have had no idea you amateurs were even here!”

“Whoa, whoa, hang on, everyone,” Misty got between the Usos to try and protest. “We had no intention of it coming down to this-- but we had to get your attention somehow!”

“Misty’s right,” Sunny nodded. “What me and George were trying to do was--”

Suddenly, someone else’s theme music echoed throughout the arena, and Mr. McMahon, the CEO of WWE, came closer to the ring, looking confused and furious all at once. “Ladies and gentlemen, it's the boss!” Michael Cole announced as the crowd cheered once more. “Mr. McMahon is here!”

“Uh-oh!” George and the ponies gulped nervously as Mr. McMahon approached them. “What's this all about? I've never even heard of this Future Guy, or even a posse of wrestling horses,” Mr. McMahon stated. “You got style, though, I'll give you that.”

“We are so so so sorry!!” Misty cried, stepping forward to defend the group. “We didn't mean to interrupt your show!”

George chuckled nervously at this. “I was as surprised as you were.”

“I don't like surprises, Future Guy,” Mr. McMahon said seriously. “You're fired!!”

George slumped a bit, remembering those words all too well from his boss all too well. “Boy... that sounds familiar.”

But before he could say anything else, the security guard grabbed him and began to drag George toward the exit. “George, no!!” Sunny tried to get to him, but Sheamus immediately held her down. “Please, sir! It's Big Show! He's gone crazy!”

This tidbit of information caused Mr. McMahon and the trainees, except Jaya, to look over at George, who took over explaining for Sunny. “He and this villain called Allura came and took it over, and proclaimed himself to be the World Heavyweight Champion of the world!”

“That’s redundant!” a woman from the audience exclaimed, but just before the guard could kick George out of the ring, Mr. McMahon stopped it from happening. “Wait. Take him and the ponies back to my office.”

“...fine. The sooner they get punished, the better,” Jaya pushed Izzy forward, and the rest of the Jetsons could only watch as George and the Mane 6 were being led away to... who knows where.

Recruiting Help from Superstars

The Mane 6 and George Jetson were escorted by Mr. Vincent McMahon, many different Superstars, including Sheamus, and some flying leopard WWE trainees...

...and the Mane 6 felt like they were foals and fillies being led to the principal's office after cheating on a test.

Yeah. That's how tense this was.

However... Clover, the trainee of Sheamus himself, was unsure of what to think. Sure, the group's appearance was a bit unexpected, but it did seem like there was more to them than meets the eye.

But what was it?

Well... she and her friends would soon find out.

XXXXXXXX

The second the Mane 6 and George were booted into Mr. McMahon's office, the yelling and accusations began, and Mr. McMahon couldn't get the Superstars, plus Brooks, Jaya and Amiri, to stop so they could talk this through.

After about 30 seconds of this, Clover officially had enough and did something what no one expected. “EVERYBODY STOP YELLING AND LISTEN TO ME!!!!!!”

Silence rung through the air after this, never expecting Sheamus' trainee to yell in this sort of manner. “I admit it! You guys should have a right to be upset! But yelling and scaring everypony isn't going to help! Just... give these guys five minutes to explain, and THEN you can talk,” she said before her eyes glowed bright red. “Is that PERFECTLY clear?”

“Uh... sure thing, Clover,” Alicia nodded stiffly. “We trust your instincts.”

“And believe that,” Roman agreed. “Okay... thank you,” Clover took a breath to calm herself before approaching George and the frightened ponies. “Are you all okay? Would you like anything to drink?”

“Um... no thanks. We're fine right now,” Zipp said, taking a moment to calm herself down before smiling at the cub. “Thanks, for... helping us stop the yelling.”

“No problem. I'm Clover. And... despite us only meeting a few minutes ago... I trust you when you say that you don't mean any sort of harm,” Clover told them. “Why don't you just tell us the whole story, and we can discuss what to do afterwards?”

“Well... okay, but you all better brace yourselves,” George told the group. “This is gonna be one wild story.”

XXXXXXXX

Within 20 minutes, the entire story had been told, and now, Brooks and Amiri had been convinced that the ponies and George were telling the truth...

...but Mr. McMahon, the Superstars and Jaya didn't seem a bit convinced. “Now, let me get this straight,” Mr. McMahon said to the group. “You found Big Show frozen in ice, in the future?”

George nodded stiffly at this. “Yes.”

“You thawed him out, and he and this evil snow leopard and rabbit took over your city.”

Zipp nodded firmly at this. “Yes.”

“And you've come back in time to take my Superstars and their trainees to the future to save... what was it? Onion Town?”

“Orbit City,” Misty nodded, “and yes.”

Sheamus was the first of the Superstars to speak after this was said. “This is the craziest thing I've ever heard.”

“I believe that,” Roman Reigns nodded. Suddenly, the door opened, and Vega ran in, looking immediately relieved. “George! Ponies! You're okay!”

“Vega! Oh, thank Jupiter,” George took the cub into his arms, and as he felt the cub purring in his arms, he let himself smile and held her tighter, easing his own worries.

Then, the security guard came in, golding Astro by the collar while Jane and the kids filed in right behind him. “Found this leopard and Future Guy's friends out by the souvenir stand.”

“Get your hands off me!” Astro barked, and this caused Jaya to immediately stop in shock. “Uh... did that dog just talk?”

“I take it back,” Sheamus said in shock. “That is the craziest thing I've ever heard.”

“Would you believe this isn't the first time I've met a talking dog?” Mr. McMahon asked... just before Amiri spoke up. “Well... I think it's really cool! And look-- that blue cub has a charm just like ours, guys!”

“Huh? Oh... yeah,” Vega nodded in George’s arms. “My brother has one just like it. We don't really know where we got them... they just kind of appeared.”

“Same with ours. I'm Brooks, by the way,” Brooks introduced. “And this is Amiri, Clover and Jaya. What's your name?”

“Vega... and my brother's name is Orion.”

The ponies and Jetsons smiled at seeing Vega begin to connect with the trainees... all except Jaya, who seemed a bit hesitant.

As the cubs were about to continue their conversation, Seth stepped forward to talk to George one on one. “Okay, Future Guy. First, stop using 'Future Guy' because everyone knows I'm the future of WWE, not you,” he said as Jey began to silently mock him, causing Jimmy to chuckle as Seth continued. “Second, if you're really from the future, why don't you show us your flying car? Or your pet robot? Ha ha ha...”

“Oh, great idea!” George smiled. “They're both in the parking lot right now! They'll prove that we're telling the truth.”

“But word to the wise,” said Vega, “don't call Rosie a pet. She might be a robot, but she hates being called names and she knows robot kung fu.”

Jaya and Seth seemed a little unsure about the whole arrangement, and the pink leopard turned to Mr. McMahon. “Boss, you're not really considering this, are ya?”

“Hmmm...” Mr. McMahon turned to the Jetsons and ponies with a raised eyebrow. “I think I need to see this robot and spaceship you speak of.”

“Sure thing, Mr. M!” Izzy chirped as they all headed for the door. “One more question, though,” said Pipp. “...can we keep the outfits?”

XXXXXXXX

“Seriously? You guys go to different worlds on different missions?” Brooks asked as he rode on Sunny's back. “That is SO wicked!”

“It can be sometimes,” Sunny said, “but other times... they can be a bit... over the top.”

“So, we know that flying leopards have all sorts of powers,” said Zipp, walking next to Roman Reigns and Jaya, “so... what powers do you all have? And does that affect your wrestling capabilities positively or negatively?”

“Man... you're a talkative one, aren't you?” Jaya snarled under her breath before flying up to get away from the ponies and Jetsons. “Don't mind Jaya,” Amiri told the others. “She's just... passionate about what she does and who she's around. To answer your question, Zipp, I have cloud magic, and Jaya had lightning magic. Clover can control plants and Brooks can control dark magic like a pro!”

“What about you, Vega?” Alicia asked as George carried the little leopard on his shoulders. “What powers do you have?”

“Well, I haven't experimented much, but I think water is more of my specialty than anything,” Vega shrugged. “My brother is learning how to control rocks and other earthy stuff, so I guess that's his power.”

“Speaking of your brother, there he is with Rosie!” Pipp said as she pointed over to the spaceship with Orion and Rosie close by. “Come on, everyone. We'll introduce you to them.”

Jaya saw the spaceship with wide eyes, but composed herself as she landed beside her friends. “So,” George stated as he gestured to the spaceship, “here they are.”

“A spaceship!” Amiri gasped. “A pet robot! Ah!!” Seth yelped as Rosie karate chopped Seth right in the ribs. “Watch your mouth,” she scolded. “And the rest of you can shut your pie-holes before you start catching flies. Mr. J? Orion and I repaired the car while you were away. She's ready to fly.”

“All of these people are going to come and help us? Will we even have room for everyone?” Orion asked. “Well, that all depends on a couple of things,” Misty told the cub. “Especially the fact of believing our story-- which is definitely true and not made up!”

“...yeah, whatever you wanna tell yourself,” Jaya muttered and rolled her eyes. “Well, Mr. McMahon?” George said with a smile. “Do you all believe us now?”

“If Big Show really has taken over the future with the help of an evil snow leopard, and the Superstars of WWE are the only ones who can stop them,” Mr. McMahon declared, “then, by gosh, we have to stop him. And I really wanna go for a ride in that spaceship.”

“To the future!” Alicia exclaimed. “YES!!” Brooks cheered in excitement. “Bring me to Big Show,” Roman pounded his fit into his open hand, “and I'll bring the fight.”

“...well, it isn't exactly the way I wanted to spend my Friday night,” Jaya muttered with a shrug, “but... I guess if you guys are going, I guess I'm going too... just to make sure Big Show knows that teaming up with evil snow leopards isn't what makes a Superstar.”

“SHOTGUN!!” the Uso brothers, Clover and Amiri raised their hands and paws for dibs on the front seat, only to get into a playful tussle, just before Seth stepped forward. “As the undisputed future of WWE, it's only fitting that I see my future, that I...”

“Thank you, Rollins,” Mr. McMahon interrupted. “Well… what do you think, Sheamus?” Sunny asked hopefully, leading Sheamus to think for a few moments. “Me versus Big Show in a match to decide the future of the Earth, and help you ponies take down and evil snow leopard.”

Then, after a moment of considering, he laughed and punched George on the arm. “You can count me in… fella!”

“George, you did it!” Jane said as she hugged her husband. “You got them all to come with us!”

“Yeah, but...” Alicia spoke as she glanced inside the spacecraft, “...we aren't ALL gonna fit inside your UFO.”

“Yeah-- do you have another spaceship parked around here?” Amiri asked as she pinned Clover playfully on her back while Jey pinned Jimmy on his stomach. That caused George to chuckle and hold small circle like devices. “I got something you're going to like better. Sunny, I could use your help passing these out.”

“I thought you would never ask!”

The rest of the Mane 6 guided the rest of the Jetsons, Orion and Vega into the nearby spaceship, before they lifted off the ground a bit. Then, one by one, George and Sunny slipped everyone into a small space pod, whether they shared it by themselves, or whether they shared it with a leopard cub (Sheamus, the Usos and Alicia were ones that did this).

After everyone was in a space pod and ready to leave, Sunny shifted into alicorn form and let George climb on her back before she flew him and her back into the car, just as it took off further into the night sky.

“Hey hey!”

“Pawsome!”

“YAHOO!!!”

“Yeah!”

And during the midst of the cheering, they flew in circles around the moon once again until it went fast enough to teleport them back to the future...

...and for the futuristic adventure that lurked ahead.

Back to Orbit City/George and Sunny's Dropoff

The Jetsons, Orion, Vega and the Mane 6 had not only recruited Sheamus to help in their fight with Big Show and Allura, but they had also recruited the CEO of WWE himself, along with several other Superstars and their flying leopard trainees, and now they were heading back to Orbit City to take Big Show and Allura down.

However... they had no idea of what would be waiting for them when they arrived.

XXXXXXXX

When they stopped flying around the moon, everyone realized that they were back in the future, and the spaceship and space pods tagging along after it slowly started to descend back to the Earth again. “Superstars! In outer space!” Mr. McMahon exclaimed. “Fantastic!”

“Oh-ho, man!” Amiri said excitedly, pressing her paws against the glass dome of her and Jey’s space pod. “I cannot believe we’re in space!”

“I can't believe we're in the future!” Jimmy agreed as Seth crossed his arms with a smug look. “I can't believe you're all going to finally witness the future of my glorious WWE legacy.”

“Nobody believes that,” Roman said with crossed arms. “And you can believe that.”

“Why I… OW!!” Seth yelped as soon as his head hit the glass dome, causing the Usos to laugh at his spite. “Okay, word to the wise, guys!” Hitch called. “Maybe not try to stand up in the space pods!”

“Sorry, Hitch! Couldn’t help ourselves!” Amiri called back politely. “So, Jaya, what do you think about being in the future?” Zipp asked the pink cub with a smirk. “Not bad, right?”

“...okay, I will admit it… it IS kinda cool,” Jaya admitted with a hint of a smile. “But we’re not here to sightsee-- we’re here to kick some leopard butt and snap Big Show out of this World Champion of the World business.”

George nodded at this, and when he saw a patch of clouds nearby, he knew that they were getting close. “Everyone, welcome to…”

But when they came through the clouds, George, like everyone else, was stunned to see Big Show statues and billboards built all around the city. “...the future?”

The sound of Big Show and Allura’s laughter echoed through the city, and the ponies spotted many victims under Allura’s mind control spell, building more statues and billboards down below…

…and seeing Orbit City in this state was a truly saddening and shocking sight. “Oh, George!” Jane gasped. “They’ve brutalized our city!”

“But how did they brutify it so fast?” Misty wondered. “That’s what I don’t understand!”

“Oops,” Elroy gulped from where he looked at his tablet. “Looks like I miscalculated. We're back in the future, but about one month after we left.”

Judy then gasped when she saw all the Big Show statues and billboards surrounding the school, not to mention the name being changed. “Look what he did to my school!”

“And check that out,” Pipp said, pointing to some wanted posters of the ponies floating around. “Allura has wanted posters everywhere for us! Now I know how some celebrities feel when they're stalked to the extreme...”

“Big Show… helped do all of this?” Clover asked in a shocked tone, almost not believing it herself. “This is what happens,” Sheamus told her, “when you let Big Show and a tyrannical maniac do the decorating.”

“First, we take down Big Show and Allura,” Roman declared, putting his fist into his open hand, “then we take down the decorations.”

“Oh!” Alicia spotted some more of Big Show’s statues nearby. “Can I take down his little statues?”

“Sure…” Sunny spoke fearfully as soon as she spotted something ahead. “But who’s gonna take down the Big Statue?”

As they neared Time Warp Square, the others soon discovered a humongous statue of Big Show, at least as tall as 2 skyscrapers combined, right in front of them, causing them to stop. “Golly, Dad,” Elroy spoke. “I didn't think Big Show could get any bigger.”

But only a few seconds after this, more of the Superstar bots arrived on the police officers' hover scooters, causing the group to panic. “Oh, no!” George cried. “Big Show’s Superstar bots!”

“Is that supposed to be me?” Alicia asked, gesturing to her Superstar bot look alike. “Cause… uh-uh. That tin can ain't got nothing on Miss Foxy.”

Seth, however, was laughing at the experience. “An Alicia bot? Uso bots? Ha ha ha ha… and I thought the originals looked lame!” he said, laughing until his Superstar bot showed up. “Hey!”

“In your case,” Jaya said to Seth sassily, “the bot is an improvement.”

“Prepare to be processed for manual labor,” the Alicia Fox bot declared, causing Jane to gasp. “Manual labor?!”

“We got your process right here, you trash can!” Zipp told the bot fiercely as Astro growled menacingly… right before the Roman Reigns bot flew to them. “Prepare to be scanned.”

“Oh!” Rosie pushed Zipp aside so she could be seen. “Me first, handsome!”

“Rosie!” Pipp scolded. “Seriously sending mixed messages here!”

The Roman bot proceeded to scan the Jetsons, Vega, Orion and the Mane 6, and then transmitted those signals back to the giant Big Show statue for further instruction.

XXXXXXXX

Big Show and Allura were quietly enjoying their time as rulers of Orbit City, until a beeping sound caused them to sit up. “Sorry for disturbing your meditation, Your World Champion-ness and Your Leopardness,” the Dolph Ziggler bot said politely,“but there’s something you should see.”

The eyes of the Big Show statue opened so the two could look out, and what they saw instantly made Allura mad. “The ponies and the Jetsons!”

“Correct,” the Dolph Ziggler bot said to the duo, who were quickly becoming furious. “The only creatures and humans to escape your supreme rule, thereby undermining your dominance, and making you look like a couple of space clowns.”

Big Show growled angrily before punching the bot away and grabbing his remote to give out his next round of orders. “Catch them all!” he declared. “And put them in the Big Show City jail with the other troublemakers!”

“But leave those ponies to me!” Allura declared with Twitch on her back. “I want to see them rot in that cell for the rest of their days…”

XXXXXXXX

“Prepare for transport to Big Show City jail,” the Superstar bots said in unison, sending panic levels into overdrive. “Oh boy! Hold on, gang!” George said, pushing a button and sending the group fleeing for their lives with the Superstar bots right behind him. “Oh, why oh why,” Vega shrieked, “doesn't this thing have a button for escaping deadly robots?!”

She slammed her paws on another button just in time, making the group take a tight turn... just before the Superstars revealed laser guns out from their scooters and firing at the group repeatedly. “Uh…” Elroy turned to his dad once he saw the lasers. “Dad?”

“I’m on it!”

George pressed a button, making the group go up and over a building before Judy pointed out that they were heading for some poles. “Dad!!”

“All under control!”

Thanks to some serious button pushing from George, they were able to dodge the lasers and the posts all at once… even if Jey was getting a bit motion sick. “GEORGE!!” the cubs and Astro yelped at once. “I drive a lot better,” George yelled, “when people aren’t yelling at me!”

That’s when everyone gasped at what was ahead-- a giant billboard of Big Show, and they were heading right for it!

The second that they went down, the billboard exploded, sending fire and smoke coming right toward the group, causing them to scream before they managed to escape the explosion and lose the Superstar bots for a while. “George, I hate to say this,” Pipp told George, who was blowing on his fingers from all the button pushing, “but we can’t outrun them forever!”

“Pipp’s right!” George realized. “This is getting out of control! How are we gonna get you guys to Big Show so you can defeat him?”

“One thing is for sure,” said Sunny, “we’re never going to get close to him with all those Superstar bots out there!”

“We don’t need to get close to him,” Sheamus said, getting an idea. “I just need a way of calling him out!”

Jane looked confused at this. “Calling him out?”

“Challenging him!” Clover exclaimed, realizing what Sheamus was doing. “Big Show never backs down from a challenge,” Mr. McMahon said, making Jimmy nod. “The bigger and louder you make it…”

“...the more it’ll drive Big Show crazy,” Jey finished. “And then,” Alicia said, “Big Show will come to us! Ha ha ha!”

“You know… that actually might work to bring Allura out of hiding too!” Vega exclaimed. “But we need a REALLY big way to get their attention.”

“What if we could get you on television?” Jane suggested. “The Orbit City News Network station is nearby.”

“Great idea, Mom!” Elroy smiled at the suggestion. “Yeah!” Judy nodded. “That network reaches every TV screen on the planet!”

But suddenly, the Superstar bots returned with their lasers, causing the group to panic once again. “Uh, wonderful plan,” Seth said sarcastically, “that will never happen, if we're already blasted out of existence by killer robots.”

Upon Seth saying this, George immediately realized he had a point, and was ready to do anything in his power to make sure Jane's plan succeeded. “Seth’s right,” he said to the others. “Jane, if your plan is gonna work, I'm gonna need to get these bots off our tail.”

“What are you gonna do, George?” Misty asked curiously, and George gave a deep breath and a steely gaze at what he said next. “I’m switching to manual.”

“Oh!” Jane gasped, completely shocked by the news. Then, with one push of a button, George activated a manual control for the car, placing his hands on it with a firm grip. “Everybody get ready to follow my lead!”

The ponies and their new friends braced themselves for whatever George had planned, and once he saw the bots behind him, George pushed the lever forward, giving the car the ability to move up and down repeatedly, dodging the laser attacks-- something that impressed Elroy greatly. “Way to go, Pops!”

George grunted as he flipped the spaceship over the robots and flew back the other way. “Eat dust, you rust buckets!” Vega called to the bots as George flipped the car back over, causing Seth to scream and Jey to nearly lose his lunch, causing Jimmy to laugh. “Do it again, George!”

“We will, but we need to get you guys to a safe place!” Sunny said before spotting two garbage bins in the nearby alley. “When we get close to those garbage bins, everyone jump into them!”

“Garbage?! Ewww…” Pipp groaned. “It’s gonna ruin my outfit!”

This led everyone to glare at her in complete annoyance. “PIPP!!”

Pipp immediately flinched from this and relented after a moment. “Okay, okay, jeez…”

George piloted the car closer to the garbage bins, and once they were close enough, everyone except George and Sunny leapt into them, and the bots were too focused on chasing the car to notice.

After a few moments, the crews peeked out of the bins, and Astro, Vega and Orion leapt out and ran to see if they could see George while in the other, Jey looked like he was about to puke, causing panic among the trainees, Mr. McMahon and the other Superstars.

“Faugh a ballagh!!”

“Oh my spots!”

“Get me outta here!”

“Move move move!!”

But once everyone had cleared out, Jey only let out a belch. “False alarm, everybody,” he said, taking a breath of relief. “I feel much better now that I'm out of that space capsule.”

“Sunny! George!” Vega, Orion and Astro shouted, watching their friends being chased out of sight, and Astro let out some sad howls that led Zipp to try and comfort him. “Ohh…” Elroy said worriedly. “I hope Sunny and Dad are gonna be okay.”

“Don’t you worry, lad,” Sheamus laid a hand on his shoulder. “Sunny and your pa looks to be were very brave warriors.”

“And if there's one thing your father knows about getting into trouble,” Jane reminded, “it’s how to sneak his way out of it.”

“Well, that may be true,” said Mr. McMahon, “but… since you all have Allura and Big Show covered, I want to make sure our friends Sunny and George are covered.”

Vega, Orion and Elroy let out smiles at this. “Then you’re going to need a guide for the future so you don't get lost or dead,” said Rosie before changing her appearance to match that of a hover scooter. “Come on, Mr. M.”

“Robot motorcycle!” Mr. McMahon smiled. “Now we’re talking!”

He then ripped off his tie and sleeves before sitting on Rosie, ready to take off. “Hang in there, Roy boy,” Rosie told Elroy. “We’ll bring your friend and your dad back.”

“Let’s save Sunny and George!” Astro barked as he got on as well. “You said it, Astro!” Mr. McMahon shouted before they flew off into the night.

But what the others didn't know was that things were going to take a desperate turn from that point on.

The Call Out/Jailbreak!

Sunny knew that it was a risky move to join George in making sure that the Superstar bots didn’t give the others any trouble, but then again…

…if you were doing this for your friends, wouldn’t you want to risk everything for them?

Currently, the Superstar bots were hot on their trail, but Sunny and George weren’t afraid of them-- not this time. “Can’t catch us, lame bots!” George said before thrusting the car forward. “We are not lame,” the Superstar bots chorused. “It is you who is lame.”

“Miss Foxy bot is going to get you,” the Alicia bot said as it led the pack. “Foxy bot! Foxy bot!”

But as George made a swift turn, letting all the Superstar bots crash into some nearby poles, finally getting them off their tail. “Phew…” Sunny sighed in relief. “That was too close.”

But the second she and George turned, the Stardust bot was right in front of them, causing them to yelp as more and more bots surrounded the space-car. “The path to your surrender is written in the stars,” the Stardust bot told the duo. “You cannot,” said the Roman Reigns bot, “you will not escape.”

“Give up,” said the Dolph Ziggler bot, “or you will face the wrath of Big Show. Trust me, you don't want none of that.”

Seeing no other option, George opened the dome of the car, and he and Sunny stood up. “Okay,” Sunny sighed, “we surrender.”

Then, the Stardust bot blew some sort of golden glitter into their faces, suddenly causing them to become drowsy. “Nighty nightmares.”

“Ugh…” Sunny groaned before she and George fell into a deep sleep, letting the robots cackle in triumph.

One pony captured… only five more to go.

By the time that Sunny and George woke up, they were being tossed into a cell in the Orbit City Jail (now known as the Big Show City Jail, but still the same building) by the Big Show Superstar bot. “Another puny human and pony fall to Big Show,” it declared, “world champion of the world. Ha ha ha… ha ha ha.”

“Boy, I hope this works,” George groaned before flopping onto his stomach. “Believe me, George, we all do,” Sunny said comfortingly. “I just hope my friends will be able to get the plan underway before Allura finds out.”

XXXXXXXX

Now that George and Sunny had done their part, and Mr. McMahon, Rosie and Astro went off to rescue them, Jane led everyone else to the Orbit City television station to call Big Show and Allura out of hiding. “Okay, everybody,” Jane said, “let’s go!”

“Ha ha ha ha!!”

“WHOO!!”

“Yahooo!!!”

They flew to the TV station as fast as they could, where Rolf Rodriguez was giving his evening report… which was more of a ‘boost your positivity report’ than anything. “And on the lighter side, look at this puppy!” Rolf said with a chuckle as a puppy appeared on the screen. “It almost makes you forget that we're all enslaved by a madman.”

But as he was done speaking, the rest of the Jetsons, the remainder of the Mane 6 and the rest of the Superstars and leopards flew into the studio. “Hey!” Rolf shouted. “You cannot be in here!”

“Excuse us, Rolf,” said Jane politely. “We’ve got breaking news.”

“But you can’t…”

“Emphasis,” Roman interrupted fearlessly, “on the breaking.”

This caused Rolf to chuckle nervously. “Well, since you put it that way,” he said, turning back to the cameras. “We interrupt this puppy to bring you a special report.”

“All righty!” Pipp said, flying Judy up to the TV cameras. “Ready for your close up, Sheamus!”

“Time to call out Big Show!” Elroy agreed.

And hopefully… their plan would work. If it didn’t… then it was needless to say they would all be doomed.

XXXXXXXX

Big Show was sitting in his throne while Allura laid on the floor with Twitch, reading one of the books she had found, when Sheamus suddenly appeared on the screen, ready to call them out of hiding. “Big Show. I've come a long way to find you, fella.”

“Sheamus?!” Big Show blurt out. “He’s here?!”

“Argh, so that’s why the ponies were gone for so long,” Allura realized. “They must have gone back to the past with the Jetsons to bring your arch rival here to strip you of your title!”

“Imagine my surprise,” Sheamus continued to speak to Big Show directly, “when I found out you've been hiding in a glacier for 100 years all because you were too chicken to step in the ring with me. So, now you've taken over the future with no Sheamus and declared yourself the world champ. Well, surprise, Big Show! The real champ is here. And in front of millions of people watching this all over the world… I'm calling you and that mangy cat of yours out.”

“CAT?!” Allura snarled, while Twitch tried to hold her back. However, no one could hold Big Show back as he approached the TV with a snarl. “Anytime, anyplace, I will run you into the ground!”

That’s when the Dolph Ziggler bot approached. “He can’t hear you, sir.”

“What?”

“That’s a TV screen, not a video phone.”

Big Show’s response to this? Growling in anger and punching the bot into a wall. “Allura? What’s your next action call?”

Allura smirked at this. “That’s simple… give Sheamus what he wants. A chance to prove YOU are the Heavyweight Champion. Go get on the phone and get a trap ready for those pesky Superstars and ponies-- I want to check up on our prisoners in the jail before we leave.”

And so, Allura and Twitch left, leaving Big Show to do as he was told.

XXXXXXXX

“Do you think that did the trick?” Clover asked unsuredly. “I mean… Big Show HAS changed a lot since I last saw him.”

“Hey, don’t worry, Clover, I’m sure everything will work out in the end,” Zipp tried to be comforting. “At least… I hope.”

Suddenly, the phone started to ring, and Big Show appeared on the screen behind Sheamus, clearly looking irritated. “Time Warp Square-- 10 minutes!”

“We’ll be there!” Zipp challenged with a smirk, just before the call disconnected, and many of the group ran out of the room to get there on time. “My turn to be on TV,” Seth began to say, until Izzy grabbed him in her magic aura and pulled him away, letting Rolf talk to the cameras once more. “It is a Rolf Rodriguez's exclusive-- a grudge match, 100 years in the making. Two humans, battling it out for total supremacy. And I will be there, bringing you every heart-pounding second or my name isn't Rolf Rodriguez!”

XXXXXXXX

It felt like an eternity ago since George and Sunny had been placed in the Orbit City Jail with a multitude of other people, but all they had to do was wait until the plan was concluded and Sheamus beat Big Show, while the rest of the Mane 6 try to beat Allura without Sunny's alicorn powers.

However... waiting was starting to get to them, and Sunny was becoming discouraged. “It feels like we’ve been stuck in here forever.”

“Sunny? Jetson?” interrupted a voice that George knew all too well. “Mr. Spacely?”

“Oh, this is just great,” Mr. Spacely said sarcastically as he stepped closer to them. “Stuck in a cell with Jetson and one of his pony pals. You know, this is all your fault!”

“Yes, sir, I’m well aware-- Sunny and her friends had nothing to do with this,” George told him. “But don’t worry. We have a plan to take Big Show and Allura down. You see my family was…”

“You sent your family to deal with that madman? Huh, classic Jetson,” Mr. Spacely scoffed. “Allura and Big Show will destroy them! If I was your family, I'd fire you so hard right now.”

“But we have help!” Sunny argued. “We went back in time and found real WWE Superstars and their trainees, who know how to stop Big Show! And hopefully, my friends can take care of Allura-- we’ve done it before and we can do it again.”

“...it doesn’t matter,” Mr. McMoon said from the back. “Allura is powerful enough on her own, but Big Show is TOO powerful. He has all my Superstar bots under control, as well as his new destruction bots. If anyone tries to stop them, they'll fail.”

“Come on, we can’t give up so quickly!” Sunny tried to encourage the people. “I mean… won’t you even give a listen to what our plan was?”

“Who’s to say that plan would even work to begin with?”

Sunny tensed and turned around to see Allura and Twitch smirking outside the cell. “Why the long face, Starscout?” Allura asked. “Can’t stand being caged like a wild animal? Cause you know… that’s how I felt for all these years, trapped in Starlight Ridge.”

“Now you leave her alone!” George tried to defend Sunny, only for Allura to growl at him, freezing George in his tracks. “George Jetson… Big Show told me about how you thawed him,” Allura said as she paced in front of the cell. “Just think… a pathetic alicorn wannabe, and a clumsy excuse for a family man trying to defeat us? HA! I laugh at your failed attempts.”

“We haven’t failed because we haven’t stopped trying!” Sunny told her. “And we’re never gonna STOP trying until you’re out of Orbit City for good!”

“Hmph… we’ll just see about that. Come along, Twitch,” Allura said with a sneer. “We have to be going.”

Twitch spit a raspberry at the two before following Allura away, and only a few seconds after this, the bots started to walk after them. “Time for a cosmic awakening,” the Stardust bot declared. “It is written in the stars.”

“We will hit hard,” the Roman bot declared as they walked off. “And hit often.”

“Hey, what’s going on?” Sunny asked with an eyebrow raised. “Everyone is going to Time Warp Square,” the Big Show bot explained. “World champion Big Show, Allura and their destruction bots are about to spring a trap on some puny humans from the past. Ha ha ha…”

And just like that, the Big Show bot walked off, and when this happened, Sunny suddenly realized what this meant. “A trap?! Oh no... our friends and George's family are heading into a trap and they don't even know it!”

“We need to get out of here!” George told the other prisoners desperately. “We need to help them!”

“What can we do?” Mr. McMoon asked bluntly. “We're just people. People can't do anything.”

“That’s right,” Mr. Spacely nodded. “The robots took our buttons away!”

But before Sunny could say anything, George stepped forward and spoke for her. “You're wrong! Our ancestors used to do everything-- they cooked for themselves, they cleaned for themselves, they even walked everywhere!”

This led many of the people in that cell to shudder at the mere thought of doing things for themselves. But George was not at all finished with his pep-talk. “We live in a future so great,
we don't have to do anything. And if we want to get back to doing nothing, today we have to do something!”

Sunny had to admit... she was a little jealous of that pep-talk. But, while everyone else merely stared at George for a moment, they then chose to LAUGH at George, surprising and annoying Sunny, while dejecting George’s spirits at the same time.

That's when Mr. McMoon finally stood up. “What can we do? We're stuck in this cell.”

“Another stinker of an idea from Jetson,” Mr. Spacely scoffed before looking toward Mr. McMoon. “Trust me. I work with this guy-- he's got a million of them.”

“You can't just dismiss the idea before it's even been said!” Sunny scolded the two businessmen. “Besides, George probably has an idea on how to get us all out of here... right, George?”

George spoke not a word, but turned toward the bars of the cell, grasping them tightly before he began to try and pull the metal bars apart and provide an exit for everyone.

He continued to strain... and pull... and strain and pull some more.

But even with all of his struggling, George hadn't pulled the bars apart, and he panted tiredly from his attempt. “Wow... for a second there, I thought he was gonna do it,” Mr. McMoon commented with a blink, causing Mr. Spacely to scoff. “Huh... classic Jetson.”

And then, with depressed looks on their faces, everyone turned their backs on George, with Sunny being the only one still facing her friend. However, despite knowing that Sunny was there, George sighed, his confidence completely down the drain. “Who am I fooling, Sunny? They’re all right, and maybe Allura is too-- maybe I am just a joke.”

Sunny never heard George speak in such a downtrodden tone before, and instantly knew that she had to say or do… something to help her friend.

So, she approached the downtrodden patriarch of the Jetson family and sat down next to him. “You know, George, I wasn’t always listened to the first time either,” she said. “Before magic returned to Equestria, I was always mocked and considered different for believing that all three pony kinds could be friends again. And even when I became the alicorn, I thought nopony else would understand.”

“That sounds pretty hard,” George told the earth pony mare with a concerned frown. “And you must’ve felt pretty alone half the time, too.”

“I did feel alone… at first,” Sunny admitted with a soft smile. “Then I learned that I'm only alone if I keep all my worries to myself. But if I share my worries with ponies who care, they will always be there for me. Just like I’ll always be here for you and your family-- my friends will too. You just have to have the confidence and hope to never give up in yourself or in what you’re trying to achieve. I know that we can do this, George… but the question is, do you believe we can?”

George considered everything the earth pony mare was saying, and after contemplating a few moments, realized she was right and smiled. “Thanks for the boost of hope, Sunny-- you’re absolutely right. We can do this, but only together. Mind giving me a hoof?”

“You got it!”

George and Sunny each took a side of the bars and pushed with all their might, and after a few seconds of struggling, the bars finally moved. “Hey!” George said in delight. “We did it!”

“Uh… George?” Sunny pointed outside the cell, revealing that it was really Rosie who had pushed the bars apart. “Don’t worry, Mr. J,” she said quietly. “It’ll be our secret.”

“Let’s get you two out of here, George,” Mr. McMahon said, causing Astro to bark in agreement, and causing George to smile. “Thanks, Rosie. Thanks, Mr. McMahon.”

“Hey, fellas!” Sunny called to the other prisoners, who turned and gasped when they saw that the bars had been moved. “Who wants to help us save the future?” George asked before realizing something. “Well, technically, it's the present. Who wants to help me save the present?”

However… even after all that, no one would step forward. Sunny sighed, gazing at the crowd with disappointment. “I guess Big Show and Allura were right about one thing… the future CAN be full of wimps. We’ll be saving your home if you need us. Come on, guys.”

Sunny leapt out of the cell first with George right behind, and the two of them, Rosie, Astro and Mr. McMahon set off in the other direction to escape and rejoin their friends and family…

…and hopefully, they could get to Time Warp Square before they could fall into Big Show and Allura’s trap.

A Showdown for the Future Begins

While Mr. McMahon, Rosie and Astro were helping George and Sunny escape from their imprisonment, the rest of the Mane 6 and the rest of the Jetsons were leading the WWE Superstars and their trainees to Time Warp Square in time for Sheamus' big match with Big Show, and for the ponies to take on Allura, get her star piece and send her to a time where she won't cause any trouble for a while.

Once arriving at Time Warp Square, everyone leapt from their space pods and ran toward the center of the square, where Vega turned to look at her new friends with concern. “Do you think they’re gonna show?”

“I’m not sure about Allura, but if Big Show doesn’t,” Jaya said with a smirk, “he’ll have to rename himself ‘No Show’.”

Jimmy Uso laughed, finding this hilarious. “No Show… yeah!”

“I don’t know, though,” Zipp said to the other ponies. “Something about this just doesn’t seem right to me.”

“Zipp, I think you’re over complicating things,” Pipp brushed it off. “What’s the worst thing that could happen?”

As Sheamus and the rest of the Mane 6 managed to reach the center of the square, two large holes opened up before everyone else, preventing them from following, and causing Sheamus to look back in shock, as well as the ponies. “What the devil?”

Before anything else could be said, Superstar bots leapt out from behind, along with ice creatures that the ponies knew had to be from Allura, and grabbed the rest of their friends, much to their shock.

“Hey!”

“Huh?!”

“It’s a trap!”

“Hey!”

“Let go!”

However, Seth wasn’t even struggling all that much. “I just need to call him out… he’ll come right to us,” he said, mocking Sheamus’ earlier words. “We wouldn't be in this mess if the Architect had done the planning.”

“The Architect,” said Brooks with a growl, “better start planning for a full body cast if he keeps mouthing off!”

“I can,” Roman Reigns strained against his own robot. “I will break you, robot!”

“You cannot,” the Roman bot taunted, “you will not.”

“CAN!!”

“Cannot.”

“Will! And you can believe that!”

“I will not believe that.”

Even Jaya was beginning to struggle to break free from the ice creature holding her tightly. But as the ponies and Sheamus were about to go help their friends, a shrill voice pierced the air. “SHEAMUS!!!!!!!!!”

The ponies and Sheamus turned to the skies to see Allura with Twitch and Big Show on her back, the latter wearing a green cape as he turned to his mortal rival. “You and those horses came a long way to taste my boot and Allura’s wrath!”

“The only thing that we're going to be tasting is victory!” Sheamus declared. “Though I'm not surprised that you teamed up with this mangy street cat and a bunny instead of someone dangerous.”

“For the last time,” Allura snarled, “I am not a street cat!!”

“Easy there, Allura. I'll handle them,” Big Show said as they landed on a small floating platform. “Big talk for such a little man and a few puny ponies. But to earn your match with us you must first survive my Undertaker Bot!”

Misty and Izzy yelped as they saw a huge bot, looking like the WWE wrestling legend the Undertaker appear from one of the holes. However... Big Show wasn't done yet. “...my Kane bot!”

Another robot burst from the second hole, looking like another wrestling legend dressed in black and red. “Alongside my ice creature army!” Allura declared as many icy creatures appeared with the robots, making the Mane 6 a bit nervous themselves. “I call my bots,” Big Show declared, “my Bots of Destruction! Mwah ha ha ha ha ha ha!!”

“Excellent plan, Your Excellency,” the Seth Rollins bot declared, just before Seth scoffed under his breath. “The Architect could have done better.”

This caused Alicia to glare at Seth menacingly with a growl. “I'm warning you...”

“Eight on six? You and your new pet can't beat us alone, could you fella?” Sheamus smirked. “WE are in charge!” Allura declared with a snarl. “And we make the rules here.”

“Well,” Hitch declared, “we’re here to break your rules, your ice creatures AND your bots! Whatever we have to do to stop you guys once and for all!”

Allura glanced over at Big Show with a look as Twitch growled at the ponies. “Big Show?”

“Already ahead of you. Destruction Bots! Destroy Sheamus!” Big Show commanded into the remote. “And ice army!” Allura snapped. “Put those mangy ponies on ice!”

The robots beeped, acknowledging Big Show’s orders while the ice creatures growled at the Mane 6, who glared right back at them until Zipp gave the ponies their first set of orders. “Guys, scatter! They can’t attack all of us at once if we keep moving!”

So the ponies did as she instructed, each getting one or two ice creatures to follow them in separate directions while the Destruction Bots charged right at Sheamus. Luckily, Sheamus was able to knock the Kane bot into one of the chutes, and fought with the Undertaker bot for a moment before doing the same, leaping in after the Undertaker bot to continue the fight...

...but after a moment, the Kane bot took over the position to fight Sheamus, even going as far as going through a bridal shop before ripping off the clothing and going on through, only for the Undertaker bot to rejoin them again shortly afterwards.

And while they were fighting the ice creatures, the ponies found themselves able to cheer for their friend, alongside the rest of the Jetsons, the leopard cubs and the rest of the WWE Superstars, who were still being held captive by the rest of the Superstar bots.

“Let’s go, Sheamus!”

“You can do this!”

“You got this, Sheamus!”

“Way to go!”

“Yay, Sheamus! Whoo-hoo!!”

All Sheamus and the ponies could do now was hold off the Destruction Bots and the ice creatures for a little while longer…

…at least until help arrived.

XXXXXXXX

George and Sunny bolted down the hallway of the jail with Rosie, Mr. McMahon and Astro hot in pursuit, hoping to find someway out before long. Suddenly, as they turned the corner, they came face-to-face with the Big Show Superstar bot, causing them to stop in their tracks. “You are supposed to be in your cell.”

As Sunny prepared to activate her alicorn form and destroy this thing, a voice interrupted her… a voice that she was honestly relieved to hear. “Yeah? Well, so are we!”

Everyone turned to see Mr. Spacely, Mr. McMoon and the rest of the captives standing at the end of the hallway-- a real sight for sore eyes. “We may be wimps,” said Mr. McMoon, “but there’s a lot of us.”

“...uh-oh,” the Big Show bot gulped. “Yeah,” Rosie sneered, “you’re in for it now, sprocket-head.”

“Time for you and Shimmering Dawn to lead a revolution, Future Guy!” Mr. McMahon told George, who smiled in return before yelling out one word. “CHAAAAARGE!!”

Sunny took the liberty of taking George onto her back before leaping at the Big Show bot, knocking it to the ground before she, Mr. McMoon, Mr. Spacely and everyone else that was in the cell started running and trampling the bot. “Uh-oh, this is so wrong,” the bot kept repeating. “Uh-oh! Uh-oh!”

“See, George?” Sunny exclaimed as they kept running down the hallway. “If we have a little hope, we can go a long way!”

Suddenly, a familiar ringtone caught her attention, and George reached into Sunny's saddlebag and answered the phone, gasping in relief. “Zipp!”

“George! Thank goodness you and Sunny are okay!” Zipp sighed in relief before ducking an ice creature’s attack. “We really need you guys here as fast as you can! These ice creatures Allura made are preventing us from going to help Sheamus battle Big Show’s Destruction Bots!”

“We’ll be there as fast as we can, Zipp!” Sunny called. “And we’ve got--”

Suddenly, a familiar shriek from Pipp caught Zipp’s attention, causing her to gasp. “Sorry, Sunny! I gotta call you back!”

The call was quickly disconnected, leaving George and Sunny worried for their friends and family… and making them realize they needed to get to Time Warp Square, and fast.

XXXXXXXX

A winged ice creature was holding Pipp in its icy grasp, making Zipp so angry that she didn’t notice that her cutie mark had started to glow, making the rest of her glow as well. “Leave… my… sister… ALONE!!!”

She shot off like a rocket toward the ice creature, spiraling as she did so before she collided with the creature, destroying it and freeing Pipp… much to Zipp’s shock. “Whoa… how did THAT happen?!”

“I don’t know, but-- ZIPP!!” Pipp shrieked as she saw another ice creature dive toward her sister before she got in front of Zipp. Then, she began to glow as well before she kicked at the creature, creating a diamond shield that impacted against the ice creature, destroying that one as well. “Oh my pony!” Pipp gasped. “Did I just do that?!”

“I think I understand!” Zipp suddenly realized. “Our cutie mark magic, along with these new costumes, are giving us new Superstar-like attack and defense powers!”

“Come on!” Pipp urged her sister. “Let’s tell the others and fight these ice creatures off!”

So, off the sisters went, whispering the idea into their friends' ears before their friends came up with several new moves of their own (such as Izzy's Crafty Uppercut and Hitch's Power Punch), helping them slowly defeat the ice creatures one by one.

As for Sheamus, he continued to battle the Destruction Bots before realizing that they were reaching the end of the tube system... and so was he!

Sheamus screamed as he and the Destruction Bots fell out of the tube system and landed on a futuristic billboard floating above the square, but immediately realized that it could move and potentially send him or the bots falling to their demise. “Whoa, there! This futuristic billboard bucks like a bull!”

That's when the Destruction Bots flew off of the billboard, leaving Sheamus to quickly hang on, and causing those below and still captured to gasp. Luckily, Sheamus was able to swing to safety and looked at the bots on the next billboard over. “You bots should come to Ireland and try our famous potatoes. Let me give you a sample!” he cried before leaping onto the robots one by one. “One potato, two potato, three potato, four! Bring it on, fellas-- there's a whole lot more!”

Big Show and Allura both looked livid by that point, and seemed even more livid when they heard the others' cheering for the fact that Sheamus and the ponies were winning in their separate fights. “Whoo-hoo!”

“Pawsome!”

“Oh my!”

“Yay, you got ‘em!”

“Oh, please!” Seth then scoffed. “All the four-leaf clover in the world won't bring him the luck he needs to win.”

“Ugh! That does it!” Alicia growled. “When Brooks and I get out of here, you’re so going to get it!”

However, as the ponies got rid of more of the ice creatures, Sheamus was struggling to maintain his momentum. “They call this guy the Celtic warrior?” Seth asked with a laugh. “More like Celtic Bore-ior. Seriously! This guy is boring me to death. Come on, Sheamus! Tag me in! Let me show you how a real champion does it.”

Izzy, since she was closest, picked up her ice creature with newfound strength and turned back to look at Seth. “I’ll tag you in, Seth! HYAH!!”

Izzy flung her ice creature back at the Seth Rollins bot, causing it to let go of Seth and causing Seth to pounce on it, letting the bot power down. “Ha! The Architect outsmarts everyone again!”

At the same time, Jaya was able to fuel up her powers just enough to melt the ice creature holding her. “All right!” she cheered, doing a loop in the air. “This leopard is ready to shock and roll!”

“You know…” Hitch grunted as he kicked an ice creature away, “...I’m kinda jealous of that punchline!”

However, Big Show wasn’t done yet, pressing the button on the remote and giving another set of orders. “Kane bot! Destroy Seth Rollins!”

The Kane bot took pleasure in heeding Big Show’s orders, charging toward Seth and sending him on the run while Jaya helped the ponies with the ice creatures.

At the same time, Sheamus found himself face to face with the Undertaker bot once again. “Oh, I like these odds. Bring ‘em on!”

The Undertaker bot and Sheamus began to tussle for a few moments before Sheamus began to get the upper hand. “You're a strong one, but you got no soul. You got no heart,” he said before grabbing the bot beneath its arms. “ So, let me show you a proper heartbeat!”

Sheamus began to punch the bot repeatedly, right where the heart was, just as Seth came back around, screaming as he was being chased before knocking the Alicia Fox bot aside, freeing Alicia. Not to mention, the Alicia bot knocked into the ice creature holding Brooks, shattering it and letting Brooks go free, causing Alicia to smirk. “Now it’s our turn to party!”

“Oh yeah!” Brooks cheered before leaping at another ice creature with a snarl, his paws blazing with dark magic. At the same time, Seth came around again, this time, letting the Kane bot slam into the Roman Reigns bot, freeing Roman from the bot's grasp. “There can be only ONE Roman Reigns!”

He leapt at the Roman bot, letting them both collide with the creature holding Amiri and letting her fly to help Seth with the Kane bot. She kicked a floating display case toward the Uso bots and the creature holding Clover in its grasp, freeing the Uso brothers and Clover from their clutches.

This gave the Uso brothers the chance to join in the battle, and Clover was able to fly up and help Sheamus with what remained of the Undertaker bot.

Allura kept creating ice creatures to keep the ponies distracted, while Big Show gave more orders to the remaining Superstar bots down below. “Dolph bot! Stardust bot! Get Seth Rollins!”

“As you command, your world championess,” the bots said in reply, running off and leaving Jane, Elroy, Judy, Orion and Vega to hide behind several plant displays while waiting for the battle to end.

At the same time, Sheamus had clobbered the Undertaker bot till it was barely recognizable, and Clover used her plant powers to wrap vines around it. “Rest… in… pieces!”

Clover then threw it onto the platform where Big Show and Allura were standing, allowing them to growl. “Big Show, please! This isn’t you!” Clover shouted to the large Superstar. “You would never let a tyrannical snow leopard convince you to take over a city and hurt people! I get you want to be the champion, but whatever century we’re in, this isn’t the way to get what you want!”

“Well, it doesn’t matter what century it is-- I’ve always been better than Sheamus!” Big Show said as the platform lowered down to them, letting the two villains get closer to Sheamus and Clover. “That's why were not gonna pin you,” Allura smirked. “We want you to kneel before your champion and the snow leopard queen.”

Clover snarled at this, and Twitch growled right back at her-- that is… until Elroy spoke up from down below. “Don’t do it, Sheamus!”

“Don’t give in, Clover!” Jane cried out. “You can take them!” Vega agreed. “Give them the what-for!”

But this only led Allura to smirk and press the button on Big Show’s remote. “Prepare to silence the Jetsons… Sheamus bot.”

Clover and Sheamus immediately stopped at this. “Don’t surrender, Sheamus!” Judy called out, causing Orion to nod. “They’re nothing but great big bullies!”

But while the Jetsons were distracted, a giant bot that looked just like Sheamus rose up from behind them and began to target them with a laser ray, causing them and the ponies, who stopped their own fight to find out what was going on, to gasp in shock.

Clover gulped nervously at this. “You honestly wouldn’t.”

“Oh, we would…” Allura said with a sneer. “Now… kneel or they’re not the only ones getting hurt.”

Clover's ears pinned at this, and Sheamus let out a growl.

This was the most difficult choice they would ever have to make in their lives... so what were they to do now?

Big Show's Redemption and Allura's Defeat

Allura and Big Show had given Sheamus and his young trainee Clover the ultimate choice-- either they kneeled and forced the others to kneel as well, or the Sheamus bot that Big Show had created would destroy Jane, Judy, Elroy, Orion and Vega.

The ponies (all except Sunny) knew that this choice was going to be tough to make... but it wasn't their choice. It all rested on Sheamus and Clover at this point.

Unfortunately, Sheamus and Clover had no idea of what to do at that point...

...that is, until the sound of a humming engine caused the two of them, Big Show and Allura to look to the skies. “Huh?”

Then, to their shock, a fleet of flying cars, with George and Sunny at the front, came barreling toward Time Warp Square, and George used the car to crush the Sheamus bot, saving his family as he and Sunny got out. “And that, as they say, is how you layeth the smacketh down.”

“George!”

“Sunny!”

“Dad!”

“Daddy!”

Sunny couldn’t help but sigh in relief as she and her friends, along with the Jetsons, hugged one another out of relief. “Thank hoofness you’re all okay!”

“We’re better than okay now that you guys are here,” Misty smiled. “And with your Superstar and alicorn powers, we definitely have all that we need to take Allura and Big Show down!”

With this declaration being made, George turned to the army of civilians that he and Sunny had made. “Okay, everybody!” he shouted. “Time to take back our city!”

The cars from all over the city began to settle into the square, making Allura realize that they were quickly being surrounded... and could lead to their defeat. “I should have known that fool George and Sunny would do something like this! Big Show, Twitch! Let’s get out of here!”

Big Show threw his cape onto Clover and Sheamus, allowing himself, Allura and Twitch to leap down to the ground, only for the Mane 6 to surround them, as well as Sheamus and a few more civilians. “You’re not going anywhere, Allura and Big Show!” one woman shouted. “We want our city back!” another woman agreed. “Yeah!” said a man fiercely. “This is our home and don’t you forget it!”

And by the time that all the shouting was over, the cars had formed a ring shape around the ponies, Big Show, Sheamus, Allura and Twitch, trapping everyone inside. “At long last… just us,” Zipp said with a ready pose. “Let’s get this done and get everyone in Orbit City their home back!”

“Challenge accepted!” Allura snarled before the battle began, ice blasts, punches, kicks and throws being tossed around by just the ponies themselves. While with Sheamus and Big Show, Sheamus threw Big Show into one of the cars. “Saw that coming a mile away.”

And when Sheamus prepared to kick Big Show again, Big Show merely grabbed his foot. “But did you see this coming, little bug?”

He threw Sheamus into the cars once again, causing the crowd to gasp as Sheamus began to pick himself up. “Windshield… bug. I see what you did there.”

Big Show laughed at this, and Sheamus quickly regained himself once again. “Now you got us Irish up!”

“Get ‘em!” cried Vega in celebration. “Go, ponies and Sheamus!” Elroy cheered. Meanwhile, Seth was being chased by THREE of the Superstar bots, and after Alicia destroyed her own bot, she grabbed the Stardust bot that was after Seth and destroyed it as well. “Miss Foxy is on fire today!”

“Yay, Alicia!” Judy cheered while Jane applauded. “Whoo-hoo!”

The Roman Reigns bot tossed Roman around in circles before letting him go, and after getting over his dizziness, Roman glared over at his robot double. “So, you want to see me fly, robot? I'll show you some flying,” he said before leaping into the air. “SUPERMAN PUNCH!!!”

And as soon as he had punched the robot, the robot fell apart, causing Roman to victoriously kiss his fist. “Never fails.”

Seth screamed as he raced past with the Dolph bot and the Kane bot on his heels, causing Roman to kick right through the Dolph bot before releasing a battle cry. “OOOOOOH-WAAAAAAAAH!!!”

“YEAH!!” Elroy cheered before huffing at the destroyed Dolph bot. “That’s what you get for picking on a kid!”

“I should have taken that job as a toaster,” the bot groaned before going completely silent. Brooks, Jaya, Clover and Amiri used their powers to take on the last remaining ice creatures on their tails, and once they were all gone, they high-pawed and went to go and help their friends.

At the same time, the Uso brothers managed to grab their bots and slammed them onto the ground, rendering them totally destroyed. Seth screamed as he ran by with the Kane bot on his tail, and as the Kane bot got close, they both punched it at the same time, sending it down.

That's when the winged leopard WWE trainees leapt on the Kane bot repeatedly with their paws glowing, stomping on it and rendering the bot completely destroyed. As he managed to catch his breath after a moment, Seth caught himself laughing out of pleasure. “I saved all of you guys,” he said smugly. “And that’s why I am the future of WWE. You may all thank me…”

Alicia and Brooks leapt on him before he could finish, sending Seth crashing to the ground. “Ha!” Brooks mocked. “Alicia told you we’d get you!”

“And thank you, Seth,” Alicia mocked a grateful tone, causing Seth to groan before responding. “You’re welcome.”

“Come on, Brooks, hurry up!” Amiri called to the gray leopard cub as the rest of the trainees headed toward the makeshift ring. “Sunny and the others might need our help!”

XXXXXXXX

Allura and Twitch battled the ponies to the best of their ability, but the ponies appeared to be too quick for them-- and with their new Superstar abilities, they seemed to have more of an advantage.

As her friends seemed to tire Allura and Twitch out, Sunny shifted into her alicorn form and managed to get a higher vantage point. “Allura! Twitch! Your control over Orbit City ends right now! Because with hope as our guiding light, your darkness will NEVER WIN!!!”

Sunny spun around before casting a blinding flash of light and a sonic blast through her wings down at the two villains, and Allura’s claws dug deep as she tried to keep from being blasted into the wall, but the blast from the alicorn was too strong, and she and Twitch screamed as they were blasted back into the ring of cars, falling to the ground, weak and exhausted.

The ponies, however, cheered as Sunny descended down to them again, relieved that Allura wouldn’t be a problem for much longer. “That was incredible, Sunny!” Zipp exclaimed. “What are you gonna call that Superstar move?”

“I was thinking… the Sunny Sonic Spin,” Sunny said in thought. “No idea how I came up with it-- just came off the top of my head, I guess.”

“Uh, can we talk about Superstar moves later?” Misty asked her friends with a little bit of panic. “With Big Show still around, this fight isn’t exactly over yet!”

“FELLA!!!”

At this, the ponies turned to see Big Show trying to strike Sheamus down, but the Irish wrestler was much to quick, and managed to strike Big Show twice as he taunted the large Superstar. “The Celtic warrior falls to no man, no beast, nor Big Show!”

But, as Sheamus prepared to strike Big Show for a third time, Big Show grabbed a flying car and whacked Sheamus with it, sending Sheamus down onto the ground. Luckily, he was just dazed...

...but that didn't compare to what happened next.

As the man in the car leapt to safety, Big Show plunged the car into the ground, creating a large hole in the cement, to which Sheamus tried to escape from, but failed, and began falling through it toward the ground!

Everyone gasped in horror as Sheamus plummeted toward the ground. “SHEAMUS!!” Clover shrieked before Misty, Sunny and George ran off to go get in their car and rescue him. But as they did this, Big Show cackled as the other Superstars and flying leopard trainees gathered around. “Looks like you fall to me after all.”

XXXXXXXX

Sheamus continued to fall for what seemed like forever, but eventually he turned to see George piloting the car with Sunny and Misty inside, the three teaming up to go and rescue him. “Hang on, Sheamus!” George cried as they continued to dive, but after a moment, Misty and Sunny grabbed the manual control stick and helped George move it, stopping the car and allowing them to catch Sheamus on the roof before they began to lift him back up. “Going up!” George smiled, causing Sheamus to smile as well. “Girls! George!”

“Jetson…” Big Show growled before jumping through the hole and onto the top of the car as well, causing Misty and Sunny to shriek as Sheamus and Big Show continued their fight directly above them.

XXXXXXXX

At the top, Elroy was the first to see the car coming up with the Superstars fighting on top of it. “Here they come!”

“Sunny, Misty and Dad are bringing them back!” Judy realized. “But it’s not over yet!” Orion said, pointing down at the reigning fight. “Looks like Big Show’s winning!”

“You will fall!” Big Show said victoriously to the weakening Sheamus. “Everyone falls to me! I am Big Show! I am the champion!”

Suddenly, as he and the two ponies watched the fight from the safety of their car, something in George suddenly snapped.

He wasn't going to allow anyone to hurt himself, his family or his town ever again... not while he was in there, anyway.

So once they breached the surface of Orbit City again, he moved the control stick and flung Sheamus and Big Show off, allowing Sheamus to get on top of Big Show again as they fell toward the pavement. “What’s that, fella?” Sheamus mocked. “I can’t hear you over my white noise!”

Suddenly, Big Show hit the ground with Sheamus pinning him, allowing everyone to cheer that Sheamus finally had the upper hand. “Let’s go, Sheamus!” Jane cheered, clapping her hands rhythmically, and this led everyone else in the city to do the same. “Let's go, Sheamus! Let's go, Sheamus!”

Big Show was able to get himself together after a moment, discovering that Sheamus had unpinned him and was standing nearby. “Still can’t hear you, friend,” Sheamus said as Big Show began to charge. “Try talking into my brogue kick!”

And just like that, Sheamus kicked Big Show back onto his back before pinning him again, and George and Vega slapped the ground as they began the three-count. “One!” everyone shouted in unison. “Two!”

But before they could get to three, Sheamus got up, much to the surprise of everyone there… even Big Show himself. “But you had the three count,” Big Show pointed out in surprise. “You had me beat. Why?”

Nevertheless, he accepted Sheamus’ hand to help him up. “Let's go back to our time, fella,” Sheamus proposed. “Let's battle like true Superstars in a proper ring. Then we'll see once and for all who deserves to be WWE World Heavyweight Champ.”

“...okay,” Big Show finally relented. “But we all know it's gonna be me, right?”

“George!”

“George, you’re okay!”

In an instant, George was toppled onto his back by two very excited flying leopard cubs, happy to see that their friend and caretaker was safe and sound. “You, Sunny and Misty totally saved Sheamus!” Orion exclaimed excitedly. “You dove down and caught him, a-a-and then you flung both of them right back so they could finish the match!”

“Oh, we were so worried about you!” Vega said, rubbing into George’s side. “We never want anything to happen to you or the rest of the family again!”

George paused for a moment at this, but then immediately rubbed the cubs down.

Then, it finally hit George.

He loved these two cubs just like he loved Jane, Elroy and Judy... like they were part of the family too.

So, he needed to do something to make sure they stayed in the family for good. Hey, they needed a family since it seemed like their mother was never going to come back.

Zipp then softly cleared her throat. “I, uh, hate to break up the sweet moment, but I think that we need to get the star shard from Allura and get her out of Orbit City before something else goes wrong.”

“All right, Allura, you heard the detective!” Hitch said sternly, beginning to turn toward the snow leopard. “Time to give up the--”

But as he turned, he discovered that Allura and Twitch were no longer in the space that the ponies previously saw them. “Uh… they were right there, right?!”

“They’re gone!” Amiri shrieked. “Now what do we do?!” Judy asked. “There’s still one villain on the loose!”

“Technically, it’s a villain and a half,” Pipp shrugged casually, “but who’s keeping count?”

“Well… let’s think of it this way,” said Clover with a little nervousness. “At least things can’t get any worse…”

Suddenly, a huge clap of thunder caused everyone to yelp as a huge spiraling storm began to form directly over Orbit City, and then... softly... snow began to descend from the skies. “Snow? Huh… maybe this won’t be so bad,” Jaya shrugged. “I mean, it’s just snow, right?”

“Actually… it can’t be JUST snow,” Misty frowned. “George told me before that it can’t snow up here because we’re so high above the clouds. So… snow really isn’t all that natural up here.”

“I-I-I-It is g-g-g-getting kinda c-c-c-cold up here, r-r-right, guys?” Orion shivered, leading Judy to pick him up to keep the cub warm. “Well, if it isn’t the natural weather c-c-c-causing this,” gulped Amiri, “then… w-who is?”

“Allura… it has to be her!” Zipp realized. “She has the powers over ice and snow, and she and Twitch have gone missing! It's the only explanation!”

Suddenly, Allura’s laughter echoed all over the city. “Big Show failed in his part of my plan, but I still have more power over you pathetic ponies! If I can’t have this city, then no one else can either! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!”

The wind began to pick up drastically, causing many to scream as the increasing snow and wind began to pierce through their very souls. “Okay, taking over the city is one thing,” Vega shivered, “but freezing it for all eternity?! That’s crossing the line!”

“We have to stop Allura and Twitch now!” Sunny cried to the group. “Sheamus! Get all the Superstars to get all the civilians somewhere safe! It’s too dangerous for any of them to be out here!”

“Well, we’re not going anywhere until you get Allura to leave Orbit City for good,” George said as he and his family, along with all the flying leopards stood nearby. “We’re with you all the way!”

“...thanks, guys,” Sunny smiled gratefully. “Okay… time to begin Operation: Stop the Storm!”

As the Superstars began to lead all the civilians in Time Warp Square to a safer place, the ponies, Jetsons and the leopards began to march further into the storm to find where Allura was hiding.

Luckily, Zipp had her visor with her on the adventure, so she was able to use it to pinpoint Allura and Twitch's location. “I see them! They’re on top of the skyscraper right where the storm is forming!”

“But, with the wind blowing like this, we’re never going to be able to fly all the way up there!” Elroy pointed out. “How are we gonna get rid of the storm from down here?”

“Well, I don’t have it all worked out, but I do know one thing,” Sunny said. “We’re going to stop the storm and Allura and Twitch togehter-- like the team we were meant to be!”

As the others nodded in agreement, realizing that Sunny was right, they stood ready to face whatever Allura threw at them as a soft tune began to play.

Pipp: We are all different
But one and the same

Izzy: Like starlight and moonshine
We all have our place

Misty: You can't make a rainbow
Without all the colors

Sunny: And we can't make a friendship

Hitch: Without one another

Vega and Orion: Cause there is nopony quite like you

Suddenly, during the song, the leopards' star charms began to glow with a brilliant light, catching Allura's attention. That's when Vega placed her paw on the star charm, giving her a boost of star magic, and this caused the other leopards to smile and do the same.

Vega: So let your magic run wild

Amiri and Clover: Let your magic run wild

Brooks and Orion: If you could only see everything you could be
You would spend your whole life shining

Leopards: Let your magic run wild

By the time this verse ended, Allura had created an entire army of ice creatures to stop them, and growled out an order. “Get them!”

“CHAAAARGE!!” Izzy and Zipp cried out as the group ran forward to fight the ice creatures/run to the other side of them as the song progressed.

All: Let your magic run wild (Now is the time to light up the sky)
Let your magic run wild (Now is the time)

Amiri: Look at the night sky
Filled up with stars

Hitch: Each one is perfect
Just as they are

Jaya: But they're brighter together
Each leaving their mark

Misty: So beautifully different
All lighting the dark

All: Cause nopony sparkles quite like you

Izzy and Clover: So let your magic run wild (Now is the time to light up the sky)

Clover, Jaya, Pipp and Izzy: Let your magic run wild (Now is the time)

Zipp, Vega and Orion: If you could only see everything you could be
You would spend your whole life shining

All: So let your magic run wild

By the time they reached the reprise of the chorus, they had gotten past the ice creaures (who they pretty much destroyed without question), and were now working their way upwards to the top of the skyscraper to reach Allura.

All: Let your magic run wild (Now is the time to light up the sky)
Let your magic run wild (Now is the time)

Allura was growing angrier by the minute, realizing that her plans were close to being ruined, so she launched blasts of ice in a final attempt to stop the group from advancing.

However, no matter how much ice she blasted, the others always found a way to proceed.

Sunny: We are all different

Hitch and Izzy: But one and the same

Jaya: Like starlight and moonshine

Brooks: We all have our place

Misty: We can't make a rainbow
Without all the colors

All: And we can't make a friendship
Without one another

Once they had finally reached where Allura was, she sent one mega huge blast of ice to try and freeze them, but the magic of the leopards' star charms, the ponies' cutie mark magic and the Jetsons' life force combined together into a beam of their own, inching closer and closer to Allura as they sang the final chorus reprise.

All: So let your magic run wild (now is the time to light up the sky)
Let your magic run wild

If you could only see everything you could be
You would spend your whole life shining

So let your magic run wild...!!!

Eventually, as the song ended, the blast of our heroes deemed stronger than Allura's blasting her and Twitch backwards and destroying the snowstorm, saving Orbit City at last. “NOOOOO!!!” Allura screamed. “We were so close!”

“Normally, I would agree with you, but this time… I don’t think so,” Jaya responded with a frown. “You don’t have to do this, Allura,” Vega said softly. “We can all live in harmony with one another… but you have to surrender this newfound power.”

“NEVER!!” Allura barked. “You may have won this round, ponies, but we’ll be back-- trust me on that!”

She led Twitch onto her back before flying off into a portal created by the star shard, vanishing from sight.

But, honestly? It didn't really bother the ponies that Allura had got away from them that time.

Knowing that they had saved Orbit City from both Big Show and Allura was good enough of a victory for them.

A Happy Ending for Everyone

Our heroes had finally done it-- they finally succeeded in saving the Jetsons home, along with the help of the Jetsons themselves, their leopard pals and their WWE Superstar friends.

By the time the sun was rising into the sky, a small crowd of civilians had arrived to watch the Superstars leave for home, just as Elroy finished the modifications to the car, which the Jetson family decided to let them keep. “That should do it,” Elroy said as Zipp handed him a rag for his hands. “I programmed the car to take you guys back to the night you left. I figured that would cause the least number of temporal paradoxes.”

“Ah, listen, guys. Thanks so much for helping us out,” George thanked the group with a smile. “Yeah,” Misty nodded. “We really appreciate everything.”

“Big Show…” Rosie started with her hands on her hips. “Don’t you have something you’d like to say?”

Realizing Rosie was right, Big Show turned toward the Jetsons and ponies. “George… I owe you, your family and the ponies an apology. Especially you, Elroy.”

Elroy huffed and held up the beheaded teddy bear from earlier. “You also owe me a new teddy bear.”

Big Show looked at the remote he had in his hands. “Settle for my Bots of Destruction?”

“Hmmm… deal!” Elroy smiled, and pressed the button to make the bots come to him. “I owe the rest of you an apology too,” Big Show said to the citizens of Orbit City. “I don't know if it was being frozen in ice for 100 years or… beating a robot for the championship title. But I crossed a line and I'm sorry. I hope you can forgive me.”

“Of course we can, Big Show. Believe me, it happens to the best of us sometimes,” Misty smiled. “Right, guys?”

The ponies nodded at this… but the townsfolk gave a bunch of different, angry reactions.

“But you enslaved us!”

“And made us build a giant statue!”

“Yeah, what about that?”

“Who’s gonna fix our city?!”

“Uh… we should probably get going,” Sheamus spoke up. “Right behind you!” Clover yelped before racing after him. “Hey, Vega? Orion? Why don’t you come back with us?” Jaya invited. “We can train you to be Superstars just like us, and you won’t be alone anymore.”

“...that’s okay, Jaya. We’ll try and come visit again,” said Vega, “but since we know that the charms on our collars are magic…”

“We think that Orbit City is where we need to be,” Orion added. “And the Jetsons are who we need to be with.”

“We totally get it,” Amiri told them. “But you better come and visit us soon-- we have so much to teach you guys.”

“Promise,” Vega and Orion said, giving their friends one final hug before the WWE trainees went to join their friends in their space pods.

“Farewell, ponies and Jetsons!” Mr. McMahon said before he piloted the space car out of the Earth’s atmosphere, around the moon and back to the present day.

As they watched their new friends leave, Izzy couldn’t help but sigh sadly. “It’s been only a minute and I miss them already…”

“We’ll see them again someday, Iz,” Zipp said. “But we have these fun costumes and this amazing adventure for us to remember them by.”

“Speaking of remembering… Jane and I got something done last night without you kids knowing,” George said, pulling a piece of paper out of his pocket. “Give it a read, Vega.”

Vega took the piece of paper in her paws and held it out for her and her brother to read, and her eyes widened slowly as she read it before she looked up at George, Jane and the rest of the Jetsons with teary eyes.

Could this really be happening?

Or... was she just dreaming?

Finally, Vega managed to find her voice, even though it was cracking a bit from emotion. “You… you wanna adopt Orion and me?”

“Really?!” Orion blurt out, excited, but also a little bit worried. “Cause if this is some kind of cruel joke, so help me…”

“No no… it’s fully proof of how much we love you,” Jane said gently, “and we want you to be part of our family.”

Vega couldn’t help but sniffle and wipe her eyes before leaping into George’s arms. “We’d love that… Mom and Dad.”

“Awwwww….!!!” the ponies cooed as the Jetsons gathered around their new additions to the family, happy to finally make them part of it.

However… Mr. Spacely’s call stopped the union in its tracks. “Jetson!”

“Mr. Spacely!” George said nervously, standing up with Vega still in his arms. “I know. I should have told you about Big Show the second the ponies, Vega and I found him. I understand if you never want me to work for you again.”

However, Mr. Spacely only chuckled with a genuine smile. “Are you kidding? I just got the contract to rebuild Orbit City. I'm gonna need to promote somebody to supervise the robots while they do all the work. You think you can handle it?”

“A promotion?” George asked before smiling. “Yes, sir. Mr. Spacely, sir. I'm your man… but first, I'm gonna need a week off to spend with my family.”

“I’ll give you one day.”

“I’ll take it!”

As Mr. Spacely walked away, Jane turned to her husband with a smile. “Oh, George! I’m so proud of you!”

“Me too!” Astro said before taking turns licking George’s face, then Vega’s face, causing the little leopard to giggle and squeal. “Oh, stop. Okay boy, that's enough!” George told the dog. “Seriously, this is getting kinda gross.”

That's when Elroy and Zipp looked to the sky, wondering the same thing-- if their friends made it back to their time safe and sound.

XXXXXXXX

It was another week after this that things in Orbit City started to go back to normal, and the ponies didn't mind staying with the Jetson for that amount of time-- especially if it meant helping Vega and Orion settle in with their new home.

Currently, Jane, George, Misty and Sunny were watching the match between Big Show and Sheamus on TV, while Vega and Orion slept while cuddling close to their new adoptive parents. “I love these classic matches,” George smiled. “I could watch them a thousand times.”

“And you have,” Jane smiled teasingly, just as Pipp came into the room with Judy and Izzy. “Good news!” the pink pegasus exclaimed. “Judy totally aced her history test!”

“She’s right!” Judy nodded to her parents. “My teacher said I knew more about the 21st century than he did!”

“We’re really happy for you, Judy,” smiled Sunny. “See? Going back to the 21st century paid off in more ways than one.”

That’s when Zipp and Hitch entered the room with Elroy. “Guys, we gotta get going,” said Elroy, waking the leopard cubs up. “We're gonna be late for WrestleMania.”

“Oh, you’re right!” George said, turning off the TV. “Everybody in the car!”

“Hey!” Rosie cried as she and Astro followed. “Wait for me!”

But before they could reach the door, a portal that was familiar to the ponies opened nearby, causing the group to stop. “What’s that?” Vega asked, eyes wide in wonder. “That’s our portal ride home,” Zipp said sadly. “We gotta go before it closes.”

“Hey, we can’t thank you guys again for all your help,” George told the ponies, shaking Sunny’s hoof. “If you’re ever in Orbit City again, just call us up, and we’ll meet up with you again.”

“We will. And thanks again, George… for everything,” Sunny smiled before turning to the cubs. “You two watch our for the Jetsons now, you hear?”

“We will!”

“Absolutely!”

And then, exchanging final farewells with the ponies, the Jetsons watched as their friends disappeared through the portal before they left the house for the Orbit City arena.

XXXXXXXX

The arena was packed full of ecstatic WWE super-fans by the time the Jetsons arrived, and the small butler bot was there to gree them. “Salutations, Jetsons.”

“Oh… short, but cute,” Rosie said flirtingly, catching the small bot’s attention before he cleared his throat. “We have your space box all ready for you.”

“A space box?!” Vega gasped in happiness. “Appreciation,” the small bot answered. “It’s the least we can do. After all, tonight is all because of the Jetsons.”

The Jetsons gasped in delight before entering the space box, letting it float over the arena before Mr. McMoon began to speak into the microphone. “Ladies and gentleman,” he began. “To honor the brave human Superstars who saved Orbit City. To inspire a new generation to get off their buttons and reach for the stars, WWE will now and forever more be for humans only!”

This caused all of the fans in the stands to cheer, just before Mr. McMoon said one final thing. “Please welcome to the ring your new WWE Superstars!”

But as the Superstars entered the ring one by one, George wrapped his arms around his family. “I got my Superstars right here.”

And that he did. Not only did they make new Equestrian friends and save their city from a dastardly villain…

…but their family just got a little bigger in the process.

And that was all the Jetsons could ever hope to need.
