Chapter 14: Love Poison! Snap out of it Takuma!

Disclaimer: I do not own MLP:FIM and Digimon, I do own Takuma, Goldmon and it's Digivoultions.

It was the following evening of Hearts and Hooves day one single day of every pony finding true love and spending time with their loved ones. To Takato, Rika, and Henry had only one idea of what it meant. To them it was like Valentines Day only pony style. Rika had never seen so much love for a girl pony and a guy pony before but then again she never was in a whole new world. Right now three fillies had just gotten back to their club house. It was the Cutie Mark Crusaders again.

"That was a long time to do all of Big Mac's chores" Applebloom said.

Sweetie Belle sighs "Well, it sure wasn't worth trying to get Mrs. Cheerilee and Big Macintosh together."

Scootaloo turns to the rest of a particular liquid they had made "So uh, what do we do to the rest of this?"

Applebloom looks at her "We sure don't want to go making any more of a mess."

Sweetie Belle turns "Well how about we put the rest of it in a small teapot like object."

"Good idea!" Scootaloo and Applebloom told her.

They poured the pink liquid into a container then left it on a window seal for the night. Unaware that a small blue imp like creature was watching them, he grinned mischievously at his thoughts Looks like those three fillies think they are doing a good thing, but I liked what they did, so he gathers up a fireball in his hand Time to cause some trouble.

"Badda-Boom!" the small Digimon says and he flings the fireball over to the teapot knocking it off into the ocean floating off towards Fluttershy's cottage.

Impmon then laughs as this ploy "Let's see what that girl does now. Things should be interesting."

Back to Show

Fluttershy herself was preparing herself for the next day. She saw the teapot in the river and gets it.

"That's strange" the former Pegasi pony spoke to herself "Now which pony would throw a perfectly good teapot into the river?"

She reaches for it and takes it out. Surprisingly the teapot was still floating and she was able to get it out.

"Hmm" Fluttershy said she opened the teapot and saw a pink liquid "Hey is this some sort of ne fruit punch?"

Not even thinking that it could be a bad thing Fluttershy takes it "Well Takuma and I will need something to drink on our date."

Catching herself hear this the girl gasps "Date?" She then smiles "Oh yes I'm looking forward to it."

She takes the teapot "Of course I'll return it to the pony after the date."

She takes it into her house with Impmon leaning in a tree "That human won't know what she's going to do. Good luck care taker of animals."

Once Fluttershy was inside her house she turns to Angel and Calumon "Well Angel, tomorrow I'll be out on my date, take care of Calumon for me."

The Rabbit responded with a hand to his head as if saluting her then Calumon smiled as Fluttershy turns to him giving him a playful wink "Take care Calumon, and listen to Angel."

"I will" Calumon promised.

Fluttershy smiles "Well, time to me to go to bed."

In the library Twilight Sparkle was giving Takuma one last piece of advise.

"Now Takuma, I know this is your first date with Fluttershy, but don't you think you should join your friends on patrol?"

"I should, I really should but when will I ever get some time with Fluttershy alone?"

Twilight Sparkle winked at him "You like her don't you."

"Wha? Mother Twilight?" Takuma asked with Goldmon and Spike looking up as they heard the two "What would make you say that?"

"Hey, looks like Takuma may have a crush on a pony" Spike whispered to Goldmon.

Goldmon's response was "At least Fluttershy is a human so Takuma can go out with one and not a pony and a Dragon."

Spike's eyes narrowed at the mention that Goldmon knew about his crush on Rarity "How did you know that?"

Goldmon smirked "Well, Takuma sort of told me right after I burst out laughing at you mentioning eating jewels."

Spike sighed beaten by the Digimon "Point taken, promise you won't tell no pony?"

"Hey I thought you already told Rarity you liked her" Goldmon said.

"I did!" Spike admitted "But not every pony knows."

Goldmon nods "Alright, I'll keep this a secret as long as you and keep Takuma liking Fluttershy a secret, that is if Takuma wishes it."

Spike agrees and hold out his claw "Deal!"

The two shake claws or pinchers.

Twilight Sparkle looks at Takuma "Oh, that's true, just let me tell you just be yourself, and have fun tomorrow."

"Thanks, Mother Twilight" Takuma tells his adopted mother.

He goes to his room where Goldmon is waiting for him "So, uh Takuma..."

"Yes, Goldmon?" Takuma asks.

"So, what are my orders while you are with Fluttershy?" Goldmon asked.

"I've asked Mother Twilight to watch after you, now Goldmon if you sense any danger where Fluttershy and I are, please feel free to come."

"No, problem" Goldmon replies "Go enjoy your date with the lovely Fluttershy."

"Thanks buddy" Takuma said.

Takuma turns towards his bed "Well time for some shut eye."

In Rarity's house, Rika was sitting down with the white Unicorn.

"So darling, how was your patrol with Takuma?" Rarity asked.

"Oh it wasn't a patrol, some Digimon was stalking me" Rika admits "Which Takuma somehow felt as well."

"Oh, and how did that go?" Rarity asked.

Rika responds "Let's just say I learned about this Discord guy in the end, as the Digimon that was stalking me wanted me to become his partner...Luckily Takuma was able to show me the light."

Rarity smiles "That's so like Twilight's son to do that to help others."

Rika turns her head "And I won't give up my faith, after all Renamon and I are partners and I need to learn as much as I can about being friendlier.

Rarity nods "Well Twilight's writen me to tell you that Takuma won't be joining you on patrol tomorrow morning, he and Fluttershy-"

Rika smiles "Have a date."

"Oh you know?" Rarity asked.

Rika nods "Yes,"

Flashback

Rika, Takato, and Henry were watching the effects of Hearts and Hooves Day. They were mystified about it but not Takuma. The human raised on Equestria seemed to know about it. In fact seemed to get in the mood. He had spent some money on something to give to Fluttershy. It didn't take Guilmon to find out what it was.

"Yum, CAKE!" Guilmon shouted luckily Takato was holding him back with Renamon helping him.

"No boy," Takato pleaded "It's not yours, it's for some girl Takuma wants it to give too."

"I have a good idea on who he wants to give it to" Henry admitted with Rika agreeing.

"Who?" Terriermon asked then he pointed to Rika "Her? Because all the girls here besides her are ponies...It's weird that a human would give it to a pony."

Rika turns "Rabbit face! Not every girl here is a pony, and I have a feeling it's not me, besides we've just met about one or two weeks ago, not enough time to start a relationship!"

Terriermon turns to her "Who are you calling rabbit face?"

"Momentime" Henry warns.

Takato then answers "Well there is one other human girl around here."

"But Fluttershy was accidentally made a human" Terriermon said.

Renamon turns "Did you forget already? Unless she meets the Sun Goddess she can't be turned back."

Takuma with Goldmon at his side manages to walk all the way to Fluttershy's house. She was humming along feeding the animals around her house humming a sweet little tone.

"Fluttershy?" Takuma asks as he comes near the house.

The girl gives a surprised eep as she wasn't expecting any visitors to show up during Hearts and Hooves Day although she wanted someone that liked her. She then sees Takuma.

"Takuma!" she says with a smile "What are you doing here for?"

Takuma answers "I've brought something for you Fluttershy.

Fluttershy blinks once as he gives her the item. She takes it and opens to see that it was a heart shaped cake.

"Takuma..." Fluttershy said "This is very generous of you."

"Happy Hearts and Hooves Day" He tells her.

Fluttershy was taken off guard no pony had ever given her something for Hearts and Hooves day now she suspected it was because of her timid nature. But still she wouldn't have expected some stallion or guy in Takuma's case to give her something. It made her feel well "T-T-T-Thanks Takuma" she said "I like it."

Takuma turns to her "Your welcome Fluttershy."

He begins to walk away but something inside the girl made her speak up "Uh, Takuma, I don't know what you and the other Tamers are planning-"

Takuma interrupted her "Fluttershy, would you like to go out with me?"

Fluttershy literally gulped nervously, here Twilight Sparkle's adopted son had just asked her to go out with him. She at first didn't know what to say but she does "Sure, where?"

Takuma turns towards her "Our picnic got ruined by that one Ultimate Level Digimon, so I thought perhaps you'd like to go out on another one just between the two of us."

Fluttershy actually smiles "I'd actually love that Takuma! When?"

Takuma turns "How about tomorrow afternoon? I'll pick you up?"

"Fine by me" Fluttershy said with a smile "I'll pack the lunch."

"Alright" he tells her grabbing onto her hands "I'll see you tomorrow."

She nods.

The other Tamers and their Digimon were watching.

"He so likes her!" Takato said which Rika bonked him on the head "We can see that Goggle Head."

Takato winced at the hit "Did you have to hit me?

Rika answers "That's for spying on him!"

Terriermon looks at her "You're with us too!"

Rika sighed "I wasn't spying! I was following you and Henry, along with your Digimon to make sure that you didn't spy on them!"

End of Flashback

Rarity and now Sweetie Belle looks at Rika with Sweetie Belle snickering "You actually hit Takato on his head?"

Rika turns nodding "Yes, what else could've I done, now Henry heard it to but he wasn't really into it like Goggle Head."

"I'd say that was the best course of action" Rarity admits.

Renamon is at Rika's side "Still, I hope he enjoys his time with Fluttershy."

"I'm sure he will" Sweetie Belle said with Rarity looking at her "What?"

Rarity shares a look with Rika as she asks "What exactly happened to the doors?"

Sweetie Belle sort of tries to ignore that question she wasn't about to tell her older sister nor Rika that just moments ago, she and her friends attempted to bring Cheerilee and Big Macintosh together.

The next morning comes by and exactly as they had planned, Takuma and Fluttershy had met.

Takuma leads the beautiful human girl to a clear opening. In a quiet meadow the same one they were earlier. Fluttershy looks around trying to see if there was a Digimon Field she could detect. She was going to make sure no one interrupted them, not even a Digimon.

In the bushes, Takato, Henry, Terriermon, and Guilmon were watching them.

"Why did I let you talk me into this Takato?" Henry asked "A date is supposed to be for them not us to spy on them."

"Well, Takuma doesn't have Goldmon to back him up, so we'll provide the back up" Takato said.

"I think I'll leave them be" Henry said as he spotted Rika once again he wisely backed away.

Guilmon wasn't expecting it ether then WHAM the two boys fell unconscious as Rika dragging Takato and Renamon dragging Guilmon behind them "Let those two be! Seriously, you two are just as bad as girls sometimes!"

At the picnic for the two, Fluttershy brought out the teapot.

"When did you get that teapot?" He asked Fluttershy.

"I found it in a river" she said "I'm going to return it to the pony that may have lost it."

Takuma nods "Alright."

Fluttershy blushes "So, um," she shuffles a bit trying to find out what to say then she finds what she wanted to say "Before we eat, um do you want to drink a bit of punch first?"

"Sure" Takuma said as Fluttershy poured him and her a bit of the pink drink.

Watching them in the tree was in fact Impmon whom was barely controlling himself with laughter as he thought This'll keep them occupied. The fun it'll cause.

Sadly the Cutie Mark Crusaders had been looking for the teapot they had dumped the Love Poison in and when they overheard that Fluttershy had found a teapot in the river. They looked into the meadow where Takuma and Fluttershy were sitting and Fluttershy had just poured the liquid into the cup.

"The Love Poison!" Applebloom shouts knowing they were too far away from the two humans.

"So that's where the teapot went" Scootaloo said.

"Come on!" Sweetie Belle shouts "We've got to get to them before they-"

"Too late!" Applebloom shouted.

She spoke the truth as Takuma and Fluttershy clanged their cups and drank some of the substance. They slightly hiccuped letting out a small purple heart between them appear but pop shortly after.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders managed to get to the two hoping that the Love Poison wasn't going to effect them, sadly they were mistaken as the human's eyes seemed to briefly turn bright pink and they were staring right into each other's eyes. The Cutie Mark Crusaders looked on nervously as the stare down continued and it truly did look like love was in the air between the two humans.

"Takuma?" Fluttershy asked.

"Yes?" Takuma asked her.

"I know it's late for this but will you be my very special some pony?" Fluttershy asked.

"Of course" Takuma told her.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders looked at each other, they now knew that the two were under the influence of the Love Poison.

"This is a great feeling! I have a very special some pony er some human...A kissy-wissy-snuggie woogie-sugar-bear" Fluttershy spoke and with that they were instantly at each other's mouth eyes nearly kissing.

Takuma mentioned something "Your my cudily-woodsily-cutisy-sweetie pie."

Then the two must've kissed because the Cutie Mark Crusader made faces of discuss with Scootaloo speak out "Yek!"

Applebloom turns "Well, we know what's going on and we know how to stop it."

Sweetie Belle turns "But, we barely even were enough to hold off Big Macitosh and Mrs. Cheerilee...We'll need some help!"

"The Tamers!" the three shouted "And their Digimon!"

"Alright girls" Scootaloo said "Let's go!"

The Cutie Mark Crusaders were trying to find Takato, Rika, Henry, Guilmon, Terriermon, Renamon and Goldmon. Goldmon had long sensed something not necessarily bad was going to happen to Takuma. The Scorpion Digimon was now following Henry as Rika was giving Takato and Guilmon a lesson.

"But Rika!" Takato protested "I just wanted to make sure they didn't go too far."

"It's only a date Takato!" Rika told him "You wouldn't want anyone spying on your dates now would you?"

"I well, no" Takato admitted.

"Then why do it to Takuma?" She asked.

"You're starting to sound like him" Terriermon muttered.

"Hey! Tamers, Digimon!" Applebloom shouted.

"Hello!" was the response.

The three fillies stop in front of them.

"What's going on?" Goldmon asked them.

"Fluttershy...Takuma..." Scootaloo began.

"Has taken a Love Poison" Sweetie Belle said.

"Love Poison? Is that like a Love Potion by any chance?" Henry asked.

Applebloom sighs "Sort of...But it's worse then a Love Potion."

"How bad could it be?" Rika asked.

"Well..." Applebloom said "You see, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and I sort of caused a huge uproar yesterday."

"Yeah" Sweetie Belle said to Rika "Remember when Rarity asked me last night why the doors looked destroyed?"

"I don't forget often" Rika told her "Then again you didn't give her an answer."

Sweetie Belle looked embarrassed "Promise me that you won't tell Rarity."

Rika and Renamon sigh but it was Rika that reluctantly agreed "Alright, I won't."

Scootaloo spoke "Well you see we thought we were making a Love Potion to get our teacher and Applebloom's brother together...And it ended up being a Love Poison."

"Which was bad" Applebloom said as Takato looked at Rika "See? In my case I was doing Takuma and Fluttershy a favor...Uh how bad exactly is this Love Poison?"

Applebloom answers "As bad in making the two see love but only each other shoving others out of the way and forgetting about their duties!"

"Say what?" was the response even from the Digimon.

"So not cool girls! You should've disposed of it safely" Goldmon admitted.

"We tried to" Scootaloo explained "Only some pony stole the teapot and and placed it in the river which Fluttershy found and borrowed."

"And let me guess that teapot had the Love Poison in it" Renamon said.

"Exactly" Scootaloo said.

"Wait a moment" Henry said "Unable to do their duties?"

"Yes!" the three said with Applebloom noting the duties "Well Fluttershy has to care for the animals-"

"Which isn't that much of a duty" Terriermon said which earned him a look from Henry "What?"

Henry answers "That wasn't just her duty! That was her passion!"

"Oh" Terriermon said.

"And Takuma is Goldmon's partner" Takato said with Guilmon nodding "Yes, Takumamon has really helped us when we needed him."

"I see the problem now..." Rika muttered "If Takuma can't concentrate on the battle field if there is a Wild One emerging...And stop it."

"Then we will be struggling" Takato said he turned to Rika "See? I knew there was a reason the watch over them."

Rika's response was another bonk on the head "And what are you his father?"

"No" Takato said in a dazed state "But I just had a feeling something like this would happen."

Henry turns to the fillies "So, if there is a powerful effect to look at, is there somewhere we can stop it?"

Applebloom nods "Yes, the effect of the Love Poison will be stopped IF we can prevent the two from looking at each other's eyes in one hour."

"Sounds easy" Takato said "So all we've have to do is keep Fluttershy and Takuma from looking at each other's eyes for one hour. It'll be easy."

"Not really" Scootaloo said "Remember we experienced something like this already with Big Macintosh and Mrs. Cheerilee. We barely were able to stop them for one hour with the three of us!"

"Should Twilight know about this?" Henry asked "I mean surely she'd want to know about it."

"Any moment wasted could lead to bad consequences" Rika told him.

"What sort of bad-" Takato said then he caught onto himself "Never mind."

"What's bad?" Guilmon asked.

"You don't want to know boy" Takato admitted.

Henry looks ahead "Alright, we'll help you."

Terriermon agreed "As much as I don't want to interfere on any one's love live, this is for the best."

"Any idea where they'd go?" Takato asked.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders thought about it and it was Sweetie Belle that answered "Uh...How about Sugar Cube Corner!"

"If they are there I have a plan!" Takato said snapping his fingers.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders alongside Guilmon seemed to have smiled at this while Rika, Henry, Terriermon and Renamon looked worried as if they knew something bad was coming up and shared worried looks at each other.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders were proven right, for Takuma and Fluttershy were in it, between them was a milkshake.

"You take the first sip" Takuma told Fluttershy.

"No, I insist you do" Fluttershy said passing it to him.

Mrs. Cake had seen this before but not before two humans in love. She comes out of the building "I know I've seen this yesterday with Big Mac and Mrs. Cheerilee, I'm all for love and romance but this has been going on for quite a while, what happened?"

"Uh, who knows?" Sweetie Belle asked.

Takato turns to Mrs. Cake "I got an idea that will get them out. Leave it to me."

"Alright" Takato said to Mrs. Cake "Sorry Mrs. Cake but for my plan to work, we're going to have to borrow some of your goodies."

"Well alright" Mrs. Cake said.

Takato turns to Guilmon "Alright Guilmon, go in there, it's an all you can eat buffet!"

"Oh boy Takatomon!" Guilmon said.

"Takato..." Henry said "I don't think that's a good idea."

"Hey, it's only going to be a few goodies! Now once Takuma sees this he'll snap out of it and try to stop Guilmon!" Takato said "It's flawless."

One hour later, Sugar Cube Corner is for once eaten out of food, Mr and Mrs. Cake attempt to make more food with Takato gasping as Fluttershy and Takuma still aren't bunging.

"What part of that was flawless?" Scootaloo asked Takato.

"Where did I go wrong?" Takato asked.

"When you ordered Guilmon to go in it and told him it was an all you can eat buffet" Rika and Applebloom answered.

"I think they are leaving now" Henry admitted.

"Oh, where too?" Rika asked.

Guilmon answers "Something about a boat ride!"

"A boat ride of course!" Takato said "I got another idea!"

"It better be a good one" Rika muttered.

Goldmon surprisingly agreed with her "Takato that plan didn't work, but it was funny."

Pinkie Pie hapiliy agrees "Cool, I've never seen anyone eat everything in Sugar Cube Corner before! Say, what are you all up to?"

"We have to make sure Fluttershy and Takuma don't see each other's eyes for one hour" Takato said "Something about them taking a love poison."

"Oh-no, Twilight should know about this!" Pinkie Pie said.

"We don't exactly have time for that" Rika told her "But perhaps you could tell her."

"Oh-oh, of course!" Pinkie Pie replies bouncing up and down, "Just leave it to me to tell Twilight about this! You nine go ahead and try to stop this!"

"Alright" was the response with Pinkie Pie bouncing off.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders along with the rest of the Tamers watch as Takuma and Fluttershy are in a boat.

"It's ashame that we have to break them up" Scootaloo muttered "They are so cute together."

"Agreed" Takato admitted "But they have to fall in love on their own terms. Not under the influence of the Love Poison."

"We know and for once it's half way our fault" Sweetie Belle said.

"Not really" Rika tells her "It was completely your fault with Big Mac and Mrs. Cheerilee but, for what happened to Takuma and Fluttershy, it wasn't your fault, someone else did it."

"And I have the feeling I know who" Renamon said she turns to Rika "If I may leave you for a moment."

"Sure" Rika told her.

Renamon vanishes and fines Impmon laughing his butt off at the mess he had created "Oh that is so funny! This Love Poison really works!"

"I thought it was you" Renamon said as she appears behind him.

"Yikes!" Impmon shouted "Watch it toots!"

Renamon looks at Impmon "So, I'm guessing you caused this mess."

Impmon returns her look "So what? I was board in this place! Besides those Crusaders really know how to cause trouble."

"So you go ahead and knock a teapot filled with a Love Poison to cause Takuma and Flutershy to forget their duties!" Renamon demanded.

"Sure it was me!" Impmon declared "What are you going to do about it?"

Renamon replies in a sly voice "Oh, I won't be doing anything to you. It will be Takuma and Fluttershy that will deal with you,"

"Hugh now what will humans do to-" Impmon began but Renamon vanishes as Impmon gets it "Oh-no they wouldn't!"

Renamon's voice was heard "Oh, they'll get you back for this, once we snap them out of it."

This caused Impmon to gulp and try to find a good hiding spot.

Back at the boat scene, the Tamers and their Digimon watched as Takuma and Fluttershy began to kiss one another.

"So Google Head, what's your next plan?" Rika asked him.

"This" Takato responds "Terriermon flip that boat over!"

"Wha?" Terriermon asked.

Henry looks at Terriermon "For once I'm clueless on what Takato wants to do but just go ahead and do it."

"Oh okay" Terriermon replies he takes aim "Terrier Tornado!"

He unleashes the tornado like attack onto the boat capsizing it tipping Fluttershy and Takuma into the water.

"Bullseye baby!" Takato said but suddenly bubbles started to flow up to the water and he sighed "Don't tell me the Love Poison is so strong it makes them forget how to swim."

"Nice work again Goggle-Head" Rika responds as she and Henry are sweat dropping with the Cutie Mark Crusaders hurring to get the two humans out of the water. Namely it was Applebloom whom had some sort of using a lasso. She used it and it lands over the bubbles "Grab on please!" She begs.

She would get her response as the two must've grabbed onto the rope nearly pulling the filly right inside the water with them. Luckily Sweetie Belle had grabbed onto her tail and when that failed to get the two humans out of the water with her being pulled in as well Scootaloo grabbed Sweetie Belle's tail but even then it wasn't enough.

"Guilmon!" Takato shouted as the three fillies began losing their footing.

"I'm on it Takatomon!" Guilmon replies.

The dinosaur Digimon grabs onto Scootaloo's hind legs and pulls with all his might this worked and just like something being fired out of a canon the two humans were pulled out of the water soaked and wet but still looking into each other's eyes. The three fillies were sent flying into vines getting caught in them.

"Okay, so that idea didn't work ether" Takato admitted "So how about a-"

KLUNK! Rika had hit Takato on the head again "What was that for?" he asked before falling nearly knocked out.

"No more, ideas from you Goggle-head!" she told him "Mostly because they didn't work."

She looks at the fillies whom are danging in vines "And we got our filly friends in a situation."

Suddenly Renamon shifted with Terriermon and Guilmon.

"What is it boy?" Takato asked Guilmon.

"Digimon coming" Guilmon admitted.

"Oh-no," Rika muttered "Not now!"

"It's coming from Ponyville!" Goldmon announced.

"What do we do now?" Takato asked "We can't take Takuma with us, not when he's like this!"

Henry answers "We do what Takuma would want us to do, protect Ponyville from this Wild One."

"He's right" Rika admitted.

Takato agreed he turned to the fillies as Renamon helped them out of their jam "Ladies, we are out of time, a Wild One is emerging, so we need to take the Digimon on."

"Alright" Scootaloo said.

"But we'll need Takuma when the Love Poison isn't in him" Takato said to them "So you three and Goldmon, work together to solve this problem, we'll hold the Digimon off."

"Okay" Sweetie Belle said "Try to hold him off for the next hour! If you can do that we'll try to get Takuma and Fluttershy freed."

"Thanks girls!" Rika responds.

Takato, Henry, Rika, and their Digimon run towards Ponyville. In Ponyville, the fog had hit Twilight's library and taken the pony and her baby dragon assistant Spike off guard as Pinkie Pie had arrived to tell them what had happened to Takuma.

"No way! My Takuma has taken a Love Poison?" Twilight demanded "Now who in Ponyville would've made it?"

"Well the Cutie Mark Crusaders accidentally made it to give to Mrs. Cheerilee and Big Macitosh" Pinkie Pie said "They tried to dispose of it safely but some pony stole the container it was in."

"And no doubt Fluttershy took it and accidentally mistaken it for punch" Twilight spoke when Spike looked up "Uh, where did that fog come from?"

"Fog?" Twilight and Pinkie Pie asked looking around.

Just then Takato, Henry, and Rika arrived with their Digimon.

"Just in time you six!" Twilight Sparkle said "Uh, Takuma still under it's influence?"

"Sadly yes" Rika said to her "Takato tried to do it but our Digimon sensed the Wild One coming and well we have to take care of it."

"Then who's going to save Takuma and Fluttershy?" Spike asked.

"The Cutie Mark Crusaders are going to try to snap them out of it" Henry tells her.

"Oh, boy..." Twilight sighs but Rika makes her feel better "The Cutie Mark Crusaders were able to correct their mistake yesterday with Big Macintosh and Mrs. Cheerilee. If they could do that to them, they can do it to Takuma and Fluttershy."

"You're right" Twilight Sparkle said looking around "So what is the Digimon now?"

They got their answer when a huge Triceratops Digimon appears in front of them.

"No way" Henry said "Triceramon, Ultimate Level Dino Type Digimon, he has a harder shell then any Digimon in the Digital World."

"Well this is our first Ultimate Level" Takato said "Let's take it on."

"Hold on" Spike said "Takuma fought one already."

"Okay then this is our first Ultimate Level as a team" Takato corrected himself.

"There's no question about it guys" Henry said "A Single Ultimate will always defeat even three Rookie Levels."

"Then let's Digivolve them!" Rika said.

"Good idea" Takato said.

With this the three Tamers were able to pull out their D-archs and their card.

"Digi-Modify!" The three shout letting the data of the card run threw "Digivoultion Activate!"

The words DIGIVOULTION appeared on the D-Archs and it started the process.

"Guilmon Digivolve too...Growlmon!"

"Renamon Digivolve too...Kyubiimon!"

"Terriermon Digivolve too...Gargomon!"

Within seconds the three Rookies were in their Champion Level forms.

"Now it's a fair fight" Takato said he turns to Growlmon "Get him boy!"

Growlmon nods "Dragon Slash!"

He tries to swipe out at Triceramon but the Triceratops Digimon grabs hold of the claw before it could hit then with all it's might punches Growlmon down onto the ground.

"Oh come on!" Spike told Growlmon "Scorpionmon might've been able to counter that!"

"I'll try next" Gargomon demanded "Bunny Pummel!"

He tries to attack Triceramon whom avoids it then shouts "Tails Slap!"

With his tail he smacks Gargomon across the face and just like Growlmon he goes flying smashing against a book shelf causing it to let it's books bury the rabbit.

"Hey!" Twilight Sparkle shouted "I just organized that shelf yesterday!"

"We'll take him on!" Rika said "Kyubbimon!"

"Right!" Kyubbimon said "Let's see how hard that shell of yours really is horn face! Dragon Wheel!"

She preforms her fiery Dragon like wheel attack and it goes over towards Triceramon whom catches it and with a wave of his claw negates it.

"What the?" Rika demanded.

Triceramon smirked charging Kyubbimon before she could attack "Mega Dash!"

He smashes against Kyubbimon and she goes flying into Growlmon and Gargomon whom had gotten up.

Triceramon takes aim with his horns "Tri-Horn Attack!"

His attack comes at the Champion Level Digimon smashing against them sending the three flying crashing threw the walls outside.

"Growlmon!" Takato shouted.

"Kyubbimon!" Rika shouted.

"Gargomon!" Henry shouted.

The three Tamers soon joined their Digimon.

"Boy, he packs a mean Tri-Horn Attack" Gargomon said as Triceramon made his way out of the Library which had one wall completely destroyed.

Takato turns "Come on guys we can't give up! We've got to hold out long enough for Takuma to get back to his senses!"

The three Champions got up as Rika turns "How about we all attack together?"

"Good idea" Takato said.

"Pyro Blaster!" Growlmon announced.

"Gargo Laser!" Gargomon shouted.

"Fox Tail Inferno!" Kyubbimon shouted.

The three attacks seem to come at Triceramon whom braces himself as the attacks hit. Now because they hit while he braced himself he was only minorly hurt.

"For a Triceratops he's really smart" Takato muttered.

"Wonder how far the Cutie Mark Crusaders are doing" Henry said.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders with Goldmon at their side was holding onto Takuma's eyes covering them with Fluttershy trying to pray his claws off of over the boy's eyes "Sorry buddy and you too Fluttershy but it's for you're on good."

"There is only one thing that worked with Mrs. Cheerilee and Big Macintosh...and that was Marriage" Applebloom said.

Goldmon literally nearly slipped almost uncovering the boy's eyes as he asked "First of all what's marriage?"

Sweetie Belle answers "Well let's just say she means keeping them together hitch."

"How is getting them together going to make things better?" Goldmon asked.

"They aren't really going to get married, they are going to pretend they are going to get married!" Scootaloo said "Applebloom's right, it worked on Mrs. Cheerilee and Big Macintosh so it'll have to work for them!"

The Cutie Mark Crusaders put their plan into action "Gee, Takuma, and Fluttershy" Sweetie Belle said "What's up?"

Fluttershy somehow takes a random picture of Takuma as she speaks out "I have a very special some one."

"And I have one too" Takuma said accidentally bashing Sweetie Belle on the head with his own picture of Fluttershy.

"Yeah...We see that" Scootaloo spoke.

Sweetie Belle positions herself between the two somehow even spreading them apart "Gee, you two are so in love, that you should be married!"

"MARRIED?" the two humans asked then they settled down "Married..."

Scootaloo started to spread Fluttershy apart as she tried to get back "Don't you want to get your dress? You'd want to look good one your wedding for your-" Scootaloo literally nearly threw up at her choice of words "Snuggle Woogie."

Fluttershy looked puzzled a bit but the words hit her "Oh! Dress!"

She dashes off with Takuma almost following her trail but the Goldmon even though still clueless about marriage and what the word married meant somehow had the right idea "Hey Takuma! I know nothing about marriage but shouldn't you be picking out a diamond for her?"

Takuma looks puzzled like Fluttershy but gets it "DIAMOND!"

He rushes out with the Cutie Mark Crusaders on his tail and with Goldmon still covering his Tamer's eyes.

"You two go ahead and see if you can keep Takuma busy" Sweetie Belle ordered "I'll try to keep Fluttershy busy."

"Right" The two said.

Sweetie Belle goes straight to her sister's place where once more she looks around trying to help Fluttershy find a wedding dress for humans. This time she made sure to explain to a one again confused Rarity why she was barricading Fluttershy in a changing room.

"Well you see sis" Sweetie Belle said "Some pony gave Takuma and Fluttershy a Love Poison and the only way to break the spell off of them is to, well keep them from looking into each other's eyes for an hour."

"Then I'll help!" Rarity offered "Hold her back till I get a proper wedding gown for her."

"Right sis!" Sweetie Belle said.

Meanwhile Applebloom and Sweetie Belle were trying to keep Takuma occupied as they were at the jewelry shop. Right now the jeweler pony was handing out a necklace diamond with Takuma nodding.

"Nope" Applebloom said which Takuma's response was a stunned saddened expression.

The jewerly pony passed another one which caused Takuma to repeat his nodding action and Applebloom to say "No"

A third diamond was passed which caused Takuma to nod some more but Applebloom again said "No"

Goldmon was puzzled "What's wrong about that one?"

Applebloom's glared at him which Goldmon read was Agree with me Goldmon! If you don't everything could go wrong!

"Oh" Goldmon said.

Applebloom goes to explain herself "Takuma, if you really like Fluttershy and want to marry her, you should get her a big beautiful diamond as she is your very special someone."

Takuma continues to browse with Goldmon taking over the job for Applebloom as she turns to Scootaloo "How much longer?"

"Oh, about another ten minutes" Scootaloo muttered.

It was then Applebloom turns to see Takuma missing "Hey where did Takuma go?"

"WHERE I AM GOING!" Goldmon shouted causing the two fillies to watch as Goldmon and Takuma vanished.

The two fillies gulped as the jewelry pony explains "He made his purchase and mentioned something about giving it to his Shoopy-doo."

The two fillies litterally wanted to throw up again at the words not that they didn't mind Takuma being with Fluttershy but the lovely names they were calling each other was starting to get on them but they had to stop Takuma before he locked eyes into Fluttershy.

The two fillies raced out as Applebloom turns to Scootaloo "You warn Sweetie Belle that Takuma is coming! I'll try to hold him off."

"Alright!" Scootaloo said she goes off.

Applebloom wondered how to stop Takuma, he was a human boy and he should've been easier to stop that Big Macintosh but she didn't want to hurt him ether. The first thing that came into her mind was lassoing Takuma's waste as he moved along. She grabs a rope and tries it successfully wrapping the rope around Takuma's mid section. It wasn't enough to slow Takuma down one bit but it nearly caused Goldmon to fall off Takuma's head.

"Whoa!" Goldmon warned Applebloom "Easy there, I'm trying to help here!"

"Sorry" Applebloom replied she turns to see a house of another pony which Goldmon shook his head "No, I think that'll hurt Takuma more!"

Meanwhile Scootaloo somehow made it past the Tamers, where their Digimon were fighting, to Twilight Sparkle, and Spike she looked worried as she makes her way over to where Sweetie Belle was keeping guard.

"Hey what's going on?" Sweetie Belle asked as Triceramon continued to throw the three Champion Level Digimon aside "Where's Takuma?"

"To answer the two questions" Scootaloo stated out of breathe "Besides Triceramon, Takuma is on his way, and so is Applebloom. Must keep them from looking into each other's eyes."

Sweetie Belle looks around and see shovels "Well it worked for Big Macintosh..."

Henry gets the message and turns to Gargomon then to Kyubiimon and Growlmon "You two do what you can to give Gargomon cover."

"Alright" was the response.

"Pyro Sphere!" Growlmon shouted attacking Triceramon.

"Dragon Wheel!" Kyubbimon shouted also attacking Triceramon.

Once more it braces itself and seems to be minorly injured "Tri-Horn Attack!"

The attack comes at the two Digimon was Henry takes the time to spend a Digi-Modify Card "Digi-Modify...Digmon's Drills Activate!"

Gargomon's gatling guns turned into Digmon's six drills and Gargomon starts to dig into the ground as Takuma comes around as Growlmon and Kyubbimon are struck by the attack and sent plowing into Gargomon charging back into Guilmon and Renamon. Gargomon takes aim "Now Gold Rush!"

Gargomon fires the six drills but they do hit but Triceramon shrugs off the attack and counters hard "Tail Slap!"

The attack connects to Gargomon sending him flying into the air and changing him back to Terriermon whom lands on the ground.

"Not good" Rika admitted as Takuma was still under it's influence and came closer as Scootaloo calls to Applebloom whom was now in Takuma's arms trying to slow him down "Jump off!"

"But he's!" Applebloom shouted.

"Just do it!" Sweetie Belle says which Applebloom does.

"Shopi-Whoa!" Takuma shouts as he falls into the hole with the three Tamers sweat dropping at the slightly embarrassing move of Takuma not watching where he was going. Goldmon also shouted it as well but only the WHOA part.

Just as he was about to complete his call he and Goldmon fell right into the the pit luckily it was head first on a matress.

"That worked" Twilight spoke but the Tamers turned briefly and looked into the pit to see Takuma still on the mattress head first with Goldmon clinging onto Takuma's back.

"Great idea girls" Takato said to them "It's almost over and Takuma will be back to normal within one minute what can happen during-

He was about to complete his sentence as Takuma somehow used the mattress to jump up shouting out to Fluttershy "SHOPI-DO!"

"That" Takato muttered as he and the Tamers heard this.

"Wait up!" Fluttershy responds.

With determined effort Fluttershy destroys the blockade of stuff preventing her from moving out of it then with even more determination she burst threw the door with Rarity doing her best to hold Fluttershy back "Fluttershy darling, don't rush!"

"Smooth question Goggle Head..." Rika growled as Fluttershy once she sighted Takuma rushed over towards him oven ignoring the fact that Triceramon had been watching it as well and was puzzled as to what was really going on which was why he wasn't attacking.

"Hey...Anyone could've asked that." Takato countered.

Fluttershy ran as fast as she could eventually letting Rarity go well it was Twilight Sparkle using telekineses on her and placing Rarity on the ground that did it but before Twilight could caste another on Fluttershy it was too late, although the Fillies tried their best to block her eyes from staring at Takuma and they sort of knew what was coming, but they were going to try again as one minute was almost up. Suddenly CRASH! Fluttershy plowed threw them like a bowling ball and they were scattered amongst the ground like bowling pins which of course had Impmon laughing his butt off with him letting out a tiny "Priceless" in between his laughter comment.

The CRASH was followed by a BONK! as Fluttershy's fore head crashed into Takuma's forehead which was followed by Goldmon shouting "NOT AGAIN!"

"Oh, let's hope they are normal" was Applebloom's response as everyone including Triceramon was peering down in the hole with confusion.

Only Triceramon forgot that Goldmon was down there with the two humans and took aim at the Triceratops Digimon's unfortunate look "Back down ugly! Venom Spray!"

Triceramon wanted to know something else but now it had eyes full of venom and now was running about trying to get the venom out of it's eyes.

"Good old Goldmon" Terriermon said "Always aiming for the eyes of an enemy."

Now all Tamers, the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Spike and the Tamer's Digimon were peering down in the hole. Where down below Takuma and Fluttershy were looking up at confusion even blinking a bit as Fluttershy turns to Takuma blushing "Am I in a wedding dress?"

Takuma looks at her nodding "Yes,"

Fluttershy looks up at her friends "Would any pony like to explain why I am about to be married at a bottom of a pit?"

"Long story" Sweetie Belle explained.

There was a loud roar from Triceramon as Terriermon looks down at Takuma "Takuma! Thank goodness we need your help to beat Triceramon!"

"What a wild one?" Takuma asked "Alright, then-"

"We already tried Digivolving and he defeated us" Takato said.

"Alright, could any pony help us up?" Takuma asked.

"Sure thing son" Twilight Sparkle said as she and Rarity teamed up to use their Telekineses on the two humans with Takuma holding onto Goldmon as they were on the land.

Takuma looks at Triceramon whom looked at him "You'll fail just like your friends."

"Don't count on it, while I'm back to normal" Takuma said "Ready Goldmon?"

"Oh yeah!" Goldmon replied Takuma took out his D-Arch grabbing his Digivolution Card "Digi-Modify, Digivolution Activate!"

Takuma's D-Arch showed the words DIGIVOLUTION! Then the process began.

"Goldmon, Digivolve too...Scorpionmon!"

Soon Scorpionmon arrived on the scene.

"I trashed your friends, you have no hope against me" Triceramon bragged.

"Never underestimate this team" Scorpionmon warned.

Triceramon charges in but Scorpionmon uses his claws to hold him back.

"Ha!" Spike shouted "Nothing can throw Scorpionmon off guard!"

Sadly to his surprise Triceramon was able to gain the upper hand causing Spike to gasp "What?"

"He's an Ultimate Level Spike" Twilight Sparkle reminded him.

"Scorpionmon, close range attack!" Takuma orders.

"Right" Scorpionmon shouted "Laser Claws!"

The attack strikes Triceramon unprepared but it still isn't enough, Triceramon growls "You want to play dirty hugh" He grabs hold of Scorpionmon and tosses him aside.

"Not even Scorpionmon can handle him!" Spike shouts with surprise.

Takuma pulled out another card "Not right now but it's time..."

Scorpionmon got up and with his tail forced Triceramon backwards.

Takuma takes the card "Digi-Modify, Matrix Digivolution Activate!"

The words MATRIX DIGIVOLUTION appeared on his D-Arch.

"Hey what's going on now?" Spike asked he got his answer when Scorpionmon shouted "Scorpionmon Digivolve too."

Within seconds Scorpionmon completes his Digivolution "SamuraiScorpionmon!"

SamuraiScorpionmon stands in it's place causing Triceramon to back away "Uh-oh"

Spike was jaw dropping as he spoke "I know Takuma said that Goldmon can Digivolve further but I didn't believe him."

"Stop him SamuraiScorpionmon!" Takuma orders.

"You got it!" SamuraiScorpionmon shouted.

Triceramon charges in "Let's see whose the best Ultimate!"

"With pleasure!" SamuraiScorpionmon takes out his Katanas then with one swipe chops off Triceramon's horns.

"Why you?" Triceramon demanded as he stepped back "You'll pay for that."

"No, you'll pay for causing this destruction" SamuraiScorpionmon warned "Double Venom Slash!"

His two Katanas filled up with venom as Triceramon comes at him unprepared, the swords strike home instantly defeating Triceramon bursting him into data particles letting SamuraiScorpionmon absorb him.

"I got to hand it to you" Takato admitted to Takuma "SamuraiScorpionmon is one kick butt Digimon."

"Just when I thought Scorpionmon couldn't get any tougher" Spike muttered "He does."

"Which is a good thing for us" Rarity said "Without him we'd be dead or injured badly."

"Now some pony want to explain something to us?" Fluttershy asked.

Applebloom answers for her, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo "Well, we had the same thing happen to us yesterday but that was our fault completely, we sort of made the same thing that took you and Takuma, a Love Poison and it sort of made you think only about each other."

"So the teapot was yours?" Fluttershy asked.

Scootaloo answers "We put it in a teapot trying figure out a way to dispose of it..."

"But when our backs were turned some pony stole it and placed it in the river where you accidentally found and well you didn't know what was in it and you accidentally gave it to yourself and Takuma.

"Darn it" Fluttershy said.

"Not your fault" Twilight Sparkle told her "If it's Trixie she'll pay."

"It wasn't Trixie" Renamon said, "But I know who."

She turns to Pinkie Pie, "And to make him understand what he's done to Takuma and Fluttershy, we'll need Pinkie Pie for this."

Pinkie Pie giggled "He,he,he, a big time prank on him?"

"You got it" Renamon said "And it involves some help from

Takuma turns to Fluttershy as she nods "What is the plan? And is it any pony I know?"

"No," Renamon answered "It's some Digimon."

Renamon winked at Pinkie Pie and Pinkie Pie giggled "I think I know what she has in mine"

Takuma got it "Oh that'll be perfect. Go for it Renamon lead the way."

It was late in the afternoon when Renamon appears out of Impmon's sights with Takuma and Fluttershy besides each other they also had the rest of the Tamers and their Digimon at their side.

Renamon had explained her plan to Pinkie Pie whom agreed to it.

"Hello Impy!" Pinkie Pie called.

"Hugh?" Impmon asked looking at the pink Earth Pony.

"What's a handsome mon like you doing alone?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"Well uh" Impmon began.

Then Pinkie Pie smiled "I hear you like to prank others! Well I have something you'd like"

Impmon blinks "Alright show me!"

He jumps down unaware that Pinkie Pie somehow pulls out her party canon as Impmon goes right towards it unexpecting it he somehow makes his way into the party canon and Pinkie Pie giggles "He,he,he gotcha!"

She then fires the canon with Impmon shouting "No way you tricked me! I'll get you back for this!"

He then vanishes in a star finish.

"Ne, I don't think so, buddy, you don't want to start a prank war with me" Pinkie Pie spoke in between laughter.

Renamon, appears with Takuma, Fluttershy, Takato, Henry, and Rika laughing that the prank worked so well "Nicely done Pinkie Pie."

"I couldn't resist not to do!" Pinkie admitted.

Takuma stops turning to Fluttershy "Sorry for what happened earlier."

"Not your fault" Fluttershy said "Next time we'll go on another date, and this time it'll be on our terms. No more borrowing stuff found in the river."

He smiles at her as she hugs him "Besides you're really a great guy. So why not continue our picnic at the Gazebo?"

Takuma couldn't help but admit "You got it pumpkin pie."

The Cutie Mark Crusaders overheard this and thought the Love Poison's effect came back then shouted after gasping "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

End of chapter.
